Sunday morning and no land in sight! Reflect for a moment. Kenyon's face brightened. 'Ah, he cried, 'I see what you mean now! Miss Brewster's cable message will not appear in this morning's New York Argus. 'Of course it will not; and don't you see, also, that when we do arrive you will have an equal chance in the race.
Wentworth is apparently one of those, and, while he was on his guard with a man, he was not on his guard with a woman. You took advantage of that and you managed to secure certain information which you knew he would never have given you if he had thought it was to be published. You stole that information just as disreputably as that man stole the documents from Mr. Kenyon's pocket.
Hearing that through the blunder of an illiterate undertaker the motto on Kenyon's hatchment in Lincoln's Inn Fields had been painted 'Mors Janua Vita, instead of 'Mors Janua Vitæ, he exclaimed, "Bless you, there's no mistake; Kenyon's will directed that it should be 'Vita, so that his estate might be saved the expense of a diphthong."
Hilda, therefore, finding her fingers so much benumbed that the spiritual influence could not be transmitted to them, was persuaded to leave her easel before a picture, on one of these wintry days, and pay a visit to Kenyon's studio.
Having jested about Kenyon's parsimony, as the old man lay in extremis, Ellenborough placed another joke of the same kind upon his coffin.
Of Lord Kenyon's weekly trips from his mansion in Lincoln's Inn Fields to his farm-house at Richmond notice has been taken in a previous chapter. The memory of Charles Abbott's Hendon villa is preserved in the name, style, and title of Lord Tenterden, of Hendon, in the county of Middlesex.
What bliss, if a man of marble, like myself, could stray thither, too!" "Why do you laugh so?" asked Hilda, reddening; for she was a little disturbed at Kenyon's ridicule, however kindly expressed. "What can I have said, that you think so very foolish?" "Well, not foolish, then," rejoined the sculptor, "but wiser, it may be, than I can fathom.
Husband and wife had both determined to forego any pecuniary benefit which might accrue to them from this event; but they were not called upon to exercise their powers of renunciation. By Mr. Kenyon's will they were the richer, as is now, I think, generally known, the one by six thousand, the other by four thousand guineas.* Of that cousin's long kindness Mrs.
Oh, we're glad enough to get away and see the change of tone in the Chicago press; but it won't last." And Kenyon's was by no means an exaggerated statement. In the far-spreading course of the great strike "the regulars" came in for many a hard knock from the mob and for not a few from the press.
Kenyon spoke very quietly but with a conviction, and, indeed, a certain solemnity, which impressed his companion. "No," said Chayne, gently, "I shall not forget John Lattery." But his question was still unanswered, and by nature he was tenacious. His eyes were still upon Kenyon's face and he added: "What then?" "Only this," said Kenyon.
