Why, sir, when she told me to show you the chapel, she said, 'Catherine, she said, 'there's one Carnegie come out of the States see if yon McTavish is not another." "She said that?" "She did so." "And how did you propose to go to work to find out, Mrs. Nevis?" "Oh," said she, "I've hinted broadly at the news that's required at headquarters. I can do no more."
I had been often looking about, considering how I might accomplish my object, when Mr McTavish said, "I know what you are thinking about, Cheveley, but for your own sake I do not intend you to succeed; and even if it were otherwise, I am bound to see you safe on board the boat. So come along. You mustn't play me any trick."
"Get along there you, Jimmie McTavish!" He roared in a voice that was rich and musical even in its anger. "Can't you see I'm in a hurry, you thundering old mud-turtle?

The exquisite's costume was in marked contrast to those of the other two it was his second change that day.
For Murray McTavish it was as though every fear that had ever haunted him from the rivalry of John Kars had suddenly been translated into concrete form. For Jessie the hero of all her dreams had magically responded to her unspoken appeal for succor.

If he says it's all wrong, I'll go out and drown myself and fairer words than them has no man spoke." "I'll think it over," said Moira. "By all means.
