Miss Patty went white but Miss Summers was not a bit put out. She simply picked up the howling dog and confronted Mr. von Inwald. "Perhaps you didn't notice," she said sweetly, "but you kicked my dog." "Why don't you keep her out of the way?" he snarled, and they stood glaring at each other.
But you can't do that with people." "Why not?" he asked. "Although, of course, the supply of out ovens and old shoes is limited here." "As far as Mr. von Inwald goes," I went on, "that's not your affair or mine. If Miss Patty's own father can't prevent it, why should you worry about it?" "Precisely," he agreed. "Why should I? But I do, Minnie that's the devil of it."
She's had a convulsion, that's all probably from overeating. As for the others !" "Where is the where is von Inwald?" "He has gone to take the white of an egg," she replied rather haughtily. She was too honest to evade anything, but she flushed. Of course, I knew what he didn't that the prince had been among the first to scurry to the house, and that he hadn't even waited for her.
"You'll be a long ways off soon," I said, touching the ring under my hand. "I wish you could come with me," she said, but I shook my head. "Here is one dog that isn't going to sit under any rich man's table and howl for crumbs," I answered. "If he kicked ME, I'd bite him." At eleven o'clock we had the clambake with beer in the kitchen, and Mr. von Inwald came, after all.
As Doctor Barnes said over the news stand, each side was bluffing and wouldn't call the other, and the fellow with the most nerve would win. "And, oh, my aunt!" he said, "what a sweet disposition the von Inwald has! Watch him going up and banging his head against the wall!"
"Miss Miss Jennings and the von Inwald were here just now, weren't they? I passed them on the bridge." "Yes." "What how do you like him?" "Better than I expected and not so well as I might," I said. "If you are going to the house soon you might take Miss Patty her handkerchief. It's there under that table." I took my mixture into the pantry and left it to cool. But as I started back I stopped.
So she stayed, and Miss Summers put her through a lot of tricks, while the men crowded around. As I said before, Miss Summers was a first favorite with the men. Mr. von Inwald and Miss Patty came in just then and stood watching. "And now," said Mr. von Inwald, "I propose, as a reward to Miss Arabella, a glass of this wonderful water. Minnie, a glass of water for Arabella!"
"Serves him right for his temper!" he said. "Checkmate!" said the bishop. Mr. Jennings turned and glared at the board. Then with one sweep he threw all the chessmen on the floor. As Tillie said later, it would be a pity to spoil two houses with Mr. von Inwald and Mr. Jennings If they were in the same family, they could work it off on each other.
I knew that never again would the military discipline of Hope Springs be threatened. Thoburn might as well pack and go. It was Mr. Pierce's day. Mr. von Inwald was almost the last. He stood by, sneering, with an open bottle of olives in his hand, watching the others go out. Mr. Pierce held the door open and eyed him. "I'll trouble you to put that bottle with the others, in the corner," Mr.
"I'd put my hand right beside those letters to save Miss Patty a heartache," I said, "and you know it." "You're a fool." She was raging. "You'll let her marry him and have the heartaches afterward." "She won't marry him," I snapped, and walked away with my chin up, leaving her staring. But I wasn't so sure as I pretended to be. Mr. von Inwald and Mr.
