"Of course she's innocent," said Snengkeld; "from the very moment the words was spoken by the foreman. If any newspaper was to say she wasn't she'd have her action." "That's all very well," said Kantwise, looking up to the ceiling with his eyes nearly shut. "But you'll see. What'll you bet me, Mr. Moulder, that Joseph Mason don't get the property?" "Gammon!" answered Moulder.
There's John's waistcoat is silk." Upon which they all looked at Kenneby's waistcoat, and, with the exception of Kantwise, acknowledged the truth of the assertion. "That's as may be," said he, looking round at it from the corner of his eyes. "And do you mean to say that all the barristers in London will make me say that it's made of cloth? It's ridic'lous nothing short of ridic'lous."
But I cannot say that there was quite so strong a confidence felt in the Patent Steel Furniture Company generally, or in the individual operations of Mr. Kantwise in particular. The world in Yorkshire and Lancashire was doubtful about metallic tables, and it was thought that Mr. Kantwise was too eloquent in their praise. Mr.
I like to see the dinner bill settled as soon as the dinner is eaten. Then one gets an appetite for one's supper." "I don't think I have the change," said Kantwise, still putting off the evil day. "I'll lend, it you," said Moulder, putting his hand into his trousers-pockets. But the money was forthcoming out of Mr.
Dockwrath, "we will not bring the waiter into this discussion. I asked for the commercial room, and he did his duty in showing me to the door of it.
