When you feel the approach of one of these seizures, as you call them, resolve that you will not give way. By a determined effort I think that it is possible for you to ward them off. Will you try, for my sake?" "I will try," said Enid wearily; "but I am afraid that trying will be useless." "And another thing I do not believe that Mr. Ingledew is giving you the right kind of medicine.
"I came here," she said, "to see whether you were sleeping quietly. Surely I may do so much for my husband's niece?" "And what were you doing there?" said Enid, pointing to the mantelpiece. "Why were you tampering with what Mr. Ingledew sends me to take?" "Tampering, you silly girl? You do not know the meaning of your own words!" "Do I not? What have you in your hand?"
"I don't see it much matters what a man's family was," the General said stoutly, "so long as he's a fine, well-made, soldierly fellow, like this Ingledew body, capable of fighting for his Queen and country. He's an Australian, I suppose. What tall chaps they do send home, to be sure! Those Australians are going to lick us all round the field presently."
You are not looking well, Enid; we are concerned about you," said the General, going up to her and taking her by the hand. "Why do you refuse to see a doctor, my dear child?" "But I have not refused, uncle." "Oh er Mr. Ingledew " "I understood from Mrs. Vane," said the doctor, "that you did not wish for medical advice, Miss Vane."
For he did not care to be hunted up in his sister's house at a moment's notice by a most casual acquaintance, whom he suspected of being an escaped lunatic. Bertram Ingledew, for his part, however, advanced towards his companion of last night with the frank smile and easy bearing of a cultivated gentleman.
Nobody anywhere can cut like a good London tailor." Bertram Ingledew bowed his head. It was the acquiescent bow of the utter outsider who gives no opinion at all on the subject under discussion, because he does not possess any.
And Parker went away, knowing very well that she had been bribed to hold her tongue. But after that interview she noticed that Enid seemed to recover tone and strength, that for a few succeeding days she was more like herself than she had been of late, and that the symptoms of faintness and palpitation which she had mentioned to Mr. Ingledew disappeared.
"Yes," said Enid, upon whom the excitement had acted like a draught of wine, giving color to her face and decision to her tones "yes, when I have found out what it contains." "You little fool you will not know when you look at it!" "I will keep it and ask Mr. Ingledew or Mr. Evandale. You were pouring from it into the medicine that Mr. Ingledew gave me for what purpose you know, not I."
Philip denied the applicability of that naive "of course" in his inmost soul: but it was no use being angry with Mr. Bertram Ingledew. So much he saw at once; the man was so simple-minded, so transparently natural, one could not be angry with him. One could only smile at him, a superior cynical London-bred smile, for an unsophisticated foreigner.
It's your richer and worse and more selfish classes among whom sex-taboos are strongest and most unnatural." Frida looked up at him a little pleadingly. "Do you know, Mr. Ingledew," she said, in a trembling voice, "I'm sure you don't mean it for intentional rudeness, but it sounds to us very like it, when you speak of our taboos and compare us openly to these dreadful savages.
