His acquaintance with both men was of the slightest, and it was only upon reflection that he bethought him they would, no doubt, be come in the matter of his affair with Rotherby, which in the stress of his interview with Sir Richard had been quite forgotten. He nodded. "Wait upon Sir Richard to the door, Leduc," he bade his man. "Then introduce these gentlemen."
But the chemists would have none of this, and denied that the colloids, about which they ought to know more than do the biologists, had that promise in them which had been claimed. We had Leduc and his "fairy flowers," as now we have Loeb and others with their metabolites and hormones.
Caryll hailed a chair, and had himself carried to his lodging in Old Palace Yard, where Leduc awaited him. As his bearers swung briskly along, Mr. Caryll sat back and gave himself up to thought. Lord Ostermore interested him vastly.
Leduc had more than once seen Mr. Green about Old Palace Yard, besides a couple of his underlings, one or the other of whom was never absent from the place, no doubt with intent to observe who came and went at Mr. Caryll's. Once, indeed, during the absence of master and servant, Mr.

Here's a letter from Bar, LeDuc & Co. let's see what light that sheds on the matter."

Rotherby had drawn himself up, his dark face crimsoning. "D'ye talk at me, sir?" he demanded.
His chestnut hair had been dressed with as great care as though he were attending a levee, and Leduc had insisted upon placing a small round patch under his left eye, that it might said Leduc impart vivacity to a countenance that looked over-wan from his long confinement. He reclined there, and, as I have said, was almost happy.
He was impelled to recapitulate his injunctions; but he forbore. He put out his hand abruptly. "Good-night, Justin." Justin took the hand and pressed it. The door opened, and Leduc entered.
