Laycock had come in about two in the morning and had described to Leo the festivity devised by Lord Holme in honour of Miss Schley, at which he had just been present. And Leo Ulford had repeated the description to her. She had deceived him into thinking that she had known of the supper-party and approved of it. But, after this deception, she had given a looser rein to her temper.
Or did the faces of friends below in the stalls play their part in the silent drama which moved step by step with the spoken drama on the stage? Lady Holme did not ask questions of herself. When Mr. Laycock and Fritz were furiously performing the duties of a claque at the end of the play, she got up smiling, and nodded to Mrs.
The "British and Foreign Medical Review," edited by the late Sir John Forties, contributed to by Huxley, Carpenter, Laycock, and others of the most distinguished scientific men of Great Britain, has an index to its twenty-four volumes, and by its aid I find this valuable series as manageable as a lexicon.
W. Lauder Lindsay, 'Edinburgh Vet. With respect to insects see Dr. Laycock, "On a General Law of Vital Periodicity," 'British Association, 1842. Dr. Macculloch, 'Silliman's North American Journal of Science, vol. XVII. page 305, has seen a dog suffering from tertian ague.
The stalls, of course, were empty, and as they gradually filled she saw the faces of her friends looking up at her with an amazement that under other circumstances might have been amusing, but under these was rather irritating. Mr. Laycock arrived two minutes after they did, and was immediately engaged in a roaring conversation by Fritz.
He bellowed distracted nothings but could not make her hear, obtaining no more fortunate result than a persistent flutter of pink eyelids, and a shrill, reiterated "The what? The what?" A sharp tap came presently on the box door, and Mrs. Wolfstein's painted face appeared. Lord Holme sprang up with undisguised relief. "What d'you think of Pimpernel? Ah, Mr. Laycock I heard your faithful hands."
Layard, E.L., on the instance of rationality in a cobra; on the pugnacity of Gallus Stanleyi. Laycock, Dr., on vital periodicity; theroid nature of idiots. Leaves, autumn, tints useless. Lecky, Mr., on the sense of duty; on suicide; on the practice of celibacy; his view of the crimes of savages; on the gradual rise of morality. Leconte, J.L., on the stridulant organ in the Coprini and Dynastini.
"Really. Perhaps she has been a chorus-girl." "I'll bet she has, whether she says so or not." He gave a deep chuckle. Lady Holme's gown rustled as she leaned back in her corner. "And she's goin' to Arkell House. Americans are the very devil for gettin' on. Laycock was tellin' me to-night that " "I don't wish to hear Mr. Laycock's stories, Fritz. They don't amuse me."
The study of the laws of inherited memory, so successfully pursued of late by Professor Laycock, take away anything eccentric about this explanation, though I scarcely expect it will be received by one unacquainted with those laws. The emotional aspect of religion is not exhausted by the varieties of fear and hope and love.
I sat next Laycock at dinner and he was ravin'. Told me she was to be here and I didn't know it. Rather ridiculous, you know. Where is she?" "Somewhere in the rooms." "What's she like?" "Oh! I don't know. She's in black. Go and look for her." Lord Holme strode on. As he passed Mr. Bry he said: "I say, Bry, d'you know Miss Pimpernel Schley?" "Naturally."
