"And I'm really anxious to save you from unnecessary annoyance." "Then I insist that you shall tell me," she replied inconsequently. "I will not have you adopt that attitude towards me.

Wheels rumbled on a distant road. Again the silence was unbroken. The moonlight, falling on her face, gave to it an expression of childishness. Her breast and throat, gleaming white as marble, reminded him she was a woman. She stirred. Her eyes opened. She gazed up at him wonderingly. "I'm better. Foolish of me!" Then, inconsequently, "How tall you are, Lord Taborley!"
Had she not sacrificed the great love of her life in order that she might remain constant to Albert? Is it to be expected, then, that having done that, she would put Albert aside and throw her lot in with mine? She might have done this; men and women act inconsequently.
Then, inconsequently, they talked of disgrace, and of scratching his name out of the Family Bible, and said they would rather follow him to his grave than see him married to Miss Ormiston. Lastly, Mrs. Haydon asked Bob who had nursed him, and taught him to walk, and read and know virtue when he saw it. Bob, in the words of the poet, replied, "My mother." "Very well then," said Mrs. Haydon.
An office-boy staggered in with tea, and for a while the business of it kept them lightly occupied, and talking inconsequently; but presently Rokeby went back to: "So you are going to see Miss Winter this evening? Look here, Mrs. Kerr, Osborn would never forgive me if I let you go alone. I'll take you yes, please. Do let me! We'll both give her a surprise."
Besides, the cow man hasn't been called up," she added inconsequently. "He's sixty-three." "A most tactful proceeding," said Vane, skating away from thin ice. "I'm natural in another way," she went on after a short silence. "If I want to do a thing I generally do it. For instance, if I want to go and talk to a man in his rooms, I do so.
"See, Eden," he continued; "there must be a whole regiment. Not his own, though. The better part of that went down at Gettysburg. You remember, don't you " With this Mr. Menemon turned with a haste he strove to conceal. "It's almost dinner time," he added, inconsequently. "I will just change my coat." And immediately he left the room. For a moment Eden thought she heard his voice in the hall.
Yes, you would be just the man they wanted. And you accepted?" "Yes. I was on my beam ends with nothing to do; I wanted to make some money. You see Yarleys has been in the family for over five hundred years, and it seemed hard to have to sell it. Also also " and he paused. "Ever meet Barbara Champers?" asked Mr. Jackson inconsequently. "I did once. Wonderfully nice girl, and very good-looking too.
I called, you know, twice; but you were out." Audrey laughed inconsequently. "Why don't you treat me as you treat Mrs. Raleigh?" she said. "Come in and wait, next time." Phil smiled as he handed her to the chair he had just vacated. "The major isn't so kind to subalterns," he said. "He would certainly think, if he didn't say it, that it was like my cheek." Audrey frowned over this.
"Do you belong to it?" demanded Mr. Blake. "Oh, no," said Betty, with a laugh. "I'm not bright enough. I hate to stick to things long enough to learn them." "That's unfortunate, because I was hoping you were a member," said Mr. Blake, inconsequently. "But to return to the story, do you think that Miss Watson was so very much to blame for copying it?"
