He would buy a neck-tie in the morning; he had money enough for that. Then his thoughts ran on still farther. Veronica had not spoken to him in this friendly way for many a long year. It was not to make fun of him, Jost was a liar as she had said; else why did he run away instead of going with him to meet her? No, he wouldn't be taken in by that fellow, any longer.
How could he carry such a message to Veronica? It might bring the tears into her eyes again, and that was altogether too painful to see. There was no use in remonstrating with Jost, who sat there smiling scornfully without farther words. For the first time in his life, Blasi left his glass unfinished. He pulled his cap down over his eyes and left the inn.
"Clever way of putting things, Tell has got." "'Yet words, I said, 'might lead us on to deeds." "Neat," said Jost Weiler "very neat. Yes?" "To which Tell's extraordinary reply was: 'The only thing to do is to sit still. "'What! I said; 'bear in silence things unbearable? "'Yes, said Tell; 'to peaceable men peace is gladly granted.
When they had driven the red man into a corner, so that he couldn't lie himself out of it, he turned against Jost, and declared that Jost had planned the whole thing and that he himself had only played second-fiddle. Which can lie the worst, no one can tell, but that they are both reaping what they have sown, is certain enough.
Perhaps he has written, and the letter has gone astray. I look for a letter every day, but if he does not write, we may be sure that he is in great trouble, poor boy! He knows how we feel toward him, and if he has gone into evil ways we must pity him the more and pray God to bring him back into the right path again. As to Jost, I think as you do, that he is to blame for our poor boy's troubles.
He must be persuaded to yield it to them by degrees, in exchange of course for plenty of cash down, without loss of dignity!" At that moment the door-bell rang softly, as if it were pulled with extreme caution. A servant answered it, and at once came to his master's room. "A gentleman to see you, sir, on business," he said. Jost looked up. "On business? At this time of night?
Ah don't want to go round feelin' like a sheet of papah half the time." "You could rattle on, just the same," suggested Alma. "Oh, now! Jost listen to that, Mr. Fulkerson. Do you call that any way to toak to people?"
Jost!" said the Marquis stiffly, as his confidential man ushered in the visitor, then when the servant had retired and closed the door, he added quickly "Now what does this mean?" Jost dropped into a chair, and pulling out a handkerchief wiped the perspiration from his brow. "I don't know!" he said helplessly; "I don't know what it means! I have told you the truth!
Gradually, however, this excitement partially subsided to give place to other forms of social commotion, which beginning in trifles, swiftly expanded to larger and more serious development. The first of these was the sudden rise of a newspaper which had for many years subsisted with the greatest difficulty in opposition to the many journals governed by David Jost. It happened in this manner.
"Answer me, and I'll answer you, my lad." "All right; it's nothing to be ashamed of. She'll have me." "Good heavens!" exclaimed Judith "Who? Which one?" Blasi did not turn round, but pointed with his thumb over his shoulder at the house he had just left. "That one," he said. Judith shouted with laughter. "Will she have you all three?" she said; "first Dietrich, then Jost, and now you."
