'E's our 'ead-master, Mr. Cameron, but Mr. Levitt, of the Sixth District, is actin' as senior officer on the ground this Saturday. Most likely Mr. Levitt is commandin'." "How many corps are there here?" I asked. "Oh, bits of lots of 'em thirty or forty, p'r'aps, Sir. But the whistles says they've all got to rally on the Board Schools. 'Ark! There's the whistle for the Private Schools!
Everything made her nervous; but the purport of this note was merely to ask for a book which she had promised to lend Mrs Levitt. As she went up to her room for it, she was vexed that the interruption had occurred now; and was heartily angry with herself that she could command herself no better, and be no more like other people than she fancied she had been this day.
I do not believe I ever thought about the matter before: I wish I could forget it now." Notwithstanding her feeling of insignificance in the drawing-room, however, she was so impatient to be there again that her hands trembled with eagerness in doing up the parcel for Mrs Levitt. When she re-entered the drawing-room, Philip was there alone standing by the fire.
He could remember the time when nobody called on his father and mother; and Lady Corbett could not, yet, afford to call on Mrs. Levitt before anybody else did. "Well," he said, "so long as Mrs. Levitt doesn't expect my wife to follow suit." "Mrs. Levitt's experience can't have led her to expect much in the way of kindness here." "Well, don't be too kind.

"You managed to see it, I perceive," said Hester; Sydney having at the moment mounted a cockade, and drawn out his green and orange watch-ribbon into the fullest view. William Levitt lost no time in going through the same process with his purple and white.
Levitt, desiring the comfort of hot towels, and objecting to the view of the kitchen yard as seen from the lawn, had incontinently ordered the hot water rail and the trellis. There was that letter from Messrs. Jackson and Cleaver, Mr. Waddington's agents, informing him that his tenant, Mrs.
As the meeting had now broken up, and there wouldn't be anybody to witness her departure in the Waddingtons' car, Mrs. Levitt calculated that she could afford that little gratification of her feelings. They were intensified by Mr. Waddington's very evident distress. He would have walked home with her the hundred yards to Sheep Street, but she wouldn't hear of it.
I've merely taken down his answers to copy out and file for reference." "Then, my dear Miss Madden, you don't know all the circumstances." "At any rate, I can tell you what Mr. Waddington intends to do and what he doesn't. You want to see him, I suppose, about the loan for the investment?" Mrs. Levitt was too profoundly disconcerted to reply. Barbara went on in her firm sweetness.
No, I cannot," she continued, with an appearance of rage against herself; "I have thought of it I have tried it but, Francis Levitt, I canna gang through wi't Na, na he was the first bairn I ever nurst ill I had been and man can never ken what woman feels for the bairn she has held first to her bosom!"
They began earnestly to wish what they had till now deprecated that Dr Levitt might succeed in inducing some of his flock to forego the practice of wearing mourning.
