At all events I had no desire to see Madame again before her departure, especially as she had thrown upon me one momentary glance in the study, which seemed to me charged with very peculiar feelings. You may be very sure, therefore, that I had no desire for a formal leave-taking at her departure. I took my hat and cloak, therefore, and stole out quietly.
Without any formal leave-taking he made his exit, followed by Superintendent McNorton. "That's a badly rattled man," said Kitson shrewdly, "the Government may fall on this news. What will you do?" "Get van Heerden," said the other. "It is the job of your life," said Kitson quietly, and Beale knew within a quarter of an hour that the lawyer did not exaggerate.
He had answered their purpose and in the deep bliss of their new relation, they thought no more about him. As Master Mather turned to descend to the boat again not wasting any formal words of leave-taking upon the Captain either the latter grasped him by the arm. "Wait one moment," said Captain Tolley. "You will speak of what has occurred here this evening Master Mather, or not, at your pleasure.
"Possibly the presence of the detectives makes them nervous." "Well, a sudden leave-taking from here will probably center the detectives' attention upon them more than if they stayed and did their work." "That is highly probable. Tell me, Dad" Kathleen regarded Whitney intently "how is it that I am not in jail? Did not the coroner's jury convict me?"
You will think otherwise when I have killed him with my naked hands. Oh, very soon you will think otherwise." He snarled, rage choking him, flung the sword at her feet and quitted her without any leave-taking. He had ridden three miles from Nacumera before he began to laugh.
These words, so simple and ordinary, were uttered in ordinary human language, but Ognev, in acute embarrassment, turned away from Vera, and got up, while his confusion was followed by terror. The sad, warm, sentimental mood induced by leave-taking and the home-made wine suddenly vanished, and gave place to an acute and unpleasant feeling of awkwardness.
Then leave-taking was not long about; and Miss Twinkleton, in saluting each young lady's cheek, confided to her an exceedingly neat letter, addressed to her next friend at law, 'with Miss Twinkleton's best compliments' in the corner. This missive she handed with an air as if it had not the least connexion with the bill, but were something in the nature of a delicate and joyful surprise.
I've got to go and pick up Rempson, and see about some final things with him." She stopped on the threshold with a sinking heart. He meant this to be their leave-taking, then and he had not even asked her when she was to be married, or spoken of seeing her again before she set out for the other side of the world. "Owen!" she cried, and turned back. He stood mutely before her in the dimness.
It will be remembered that Villeroy had, it was thought, been making mischief between Anhalt and the States by reporting and misreporting private conversations between that Prince and the Dutch ambassador. As soon as Sully had gone, van der Myle waited upon Villeroy to ask, in name of himself and colleagues, for audience of leave-taking, the object of their mission having been accomplished.
"They would learn wisdom, doubtless. An enemy on paper is easily managed." Then Andrew had to go. And though he longed to press a kiss on the sweet rosy lips that were fond enough last night, Primrose seemed quite a tall young woman, and a child no longer; so, although the leave-taking was very sincere, it had a delicate formality in it.
