Miss Wrandall had herself announced by the obsequious doorman, and stood by in patience to wait for the absurd rule of the house to be carried out: "No one could get in without being announced from below," said the doorman. "I c'n get in all right, all right," said the messenger boy, "I got a tellygram for de loidy." "Go to the rear!" exclaimed the doorman, with some energy.
"Dere's a loidy here," continued Spike, addressing the chest of drawers, "dat's got a necklace of jools what's wort' a hundred t'ousand plunks. Honest, boss. A hundred t'ousand plunks. Saunders told me dat de old gazebo dat hands out de long woids. I says to him, 'Gee! an' he says, 'Surest t'ing youse know. A hundred t'ousand plunks!" "So I understand," said Jimmy.
The response was immediate. "The loidy says she's gone out, sir, and ain't likely to be back," remarked the top-lofty buttons, upon his return. I was so maddened by this slight, and so thoroughly apprehensive of further trouble from the infernal shade, that I resolved without more ado to sneak out of England and back to America before the deadly blighting thing was aware of my intentions.
Patrick's Day, her scalp turned forward over her face and her long hair a mass of clotted blood from such a stroke, made while she was on the ground. When the necessary readjustments had been made and she was leaving hospital cured, we asked her what had been the cause of the trouble. "'Twas just an accidint, yer know. Sure, me an' another loidy was just havin' a few words."
His lower jaw began slowly to protrude, and his forehead retreated further behind its zareba of forelock. There was a pause. The signor was plainly embarrassed. "Dis loidy," repeated Mr. Jarvis, "is cashier at dis joint at six per " He paused. "Does dat go?" he added smoothly. Certainly there was magnetism about Mr. Jarvis. With a minimum of words he produced remarkable results.
Six per ain't all de dough dere is in de woild, but, bein' cashier, see, you can swipe a whole heap more whenever you feel like it. And if Tony registers a kick, I'll come around and talk to him see? Dat's right. Good-morning, loidy." And, having delivered these admirable hints to young cashiers in a hurry to get rich, Mr.
"Casey, yez are always sorry fer somebody.... Thot Stanton wuz a beauty an' she mebbe wuz a loidy. But she wuz dom' bad." "Mac, I knowed long ago thot the milk of human kindness hed curdled in yez. An' yez hev no brains." "I'm as intilligint as yez any day," retorted McDermott. "Thin why hedn't yez seen thot this poor woman was alive whin we packed her out here?
Jimmy nodded. "And some of dose knock-out drops. What's dat? Chloryform? Dat's right. An' we didn't do a t'ing else. An' we lived for de rest of de year on dose jools." Spike paused. "Dat was to de good," he said wistfully. Jimmy made no reply. "Dere's a loidy here," continued Spike, addressing the chest of drawers, "dat's got a necklace of jools what's wort' two hundred thousand plunks."
If I don't get my pay the loidy don't get her wall, and you can tike your measly job and give it to some poor man wot needs it." Mr. Snavely had one foot on the wheel and swung lightly into his cart. "Have it your own way, Cadge," he responded cheerfully.
He halted suddenly and looked keenly at McDermott. "Wot the divil! ... B'gorra, ut's to me fri'nd Neale an' a love letter an' " "Wal, kape it, thin, fer Neale an' be dacent enough to rade no more." Lifting Beauty Stanton, they carried her out into the sunlight. Her white face was a shadowed and tragic record. "Mac, she wor shure a handsome woman," said Casey, "an' a loidy."
