Would indeed that all Mr. Jermyn's plans had carried through so well. But it was not to be. One ought not to grumble. I had hardly expected the sea to be so near, somehow, but seeing it like that I naturally stopped to look for the ship which was to carry me. The only barquentine among the ships lay apart from the others, pointing towards the harbour entrance.
Hope to see you in the Adirondacks next summer a bit more crowded than the Rockies, which are Jermyn's Mecca, but more home comforts appeal to a man of my build." He slipped away with the noiseless tread that is habitual to heavy men. Jermyn Atherton looked after his retreating figure and laughed uproariously. "Isn't he the darndest? A clam is communicative compared with Leslie.
What a horrible thing it would be if Jermyn had saved his life that he might destroy Jermyn's! Perhaps Joan might have come one day to love him; but in the meantime how miserable she was with her brother, and when could he have delivered her! while here was one, and a far better than he, who could, the moment she consented, take her to a house of her own where she would be a free woman!
The hen-coop was some six feet long, by eighteen or twenty inches in breadth and depth. It was simply a long box with bars in lieu of a lid; but it was very strongly built.

She paid for Jermyn's feasting and wine-bibbing in Paris, 'tis said, when her son and his friends were on short commons." "You do wrong to slander that royal lady," remonstrated Angela.
In modern romances, a princess need only pay a visit to some hero, abandoned by his physicians, a perfect cure would be wrought in three days; but since Miss Jennings had not been the cause of Jermyn's fever, she was not certain of relieving him from it, although she had been sure that a charitable visit would not have been censured in a malicious court.
Jermyn's own medicine chest! We hurried back to the deck, and a few minutes later the doctor appeared with a large package. "Did you ever hear of coating the skin by a substance which is impervious to water, smooth and elastic?" asked Kennedy quietly as Waldon's tender sped along back to Seaville. "Why er, yes," he said frankly, raising his eyes and looking at Craig in surprise.
