I said as sweet as sweet as I could coax. How sweet's that, Tom Dorgan? "Not at all." A little laugh came from Latimer as though he was enjoying a joke all by himself. But Moriway jumped with satisfaction. He knew the voice all right. "Have you a brother, may I ask?" He leaned over and looked keenly at me. "I am an orphan," I said sadly, "with no relatives." "A pitiful position," sneered Moriway.
Sarah Kingdon, a widow just arrived from Philadelphia, and desperately gone on young Mr. George Moriway, also fresh from Philadelphia, and desperately gone on Mrs. Kingdon's money. The tips that lady gave the bad boy Nat! I knew I couldn't make you believe it any other way; that's why I passed 'em on to you, Tommy-boy.
She was just closing the door in my face and Moriway waiting for me to watch me down again. "Mrs. Kingdon " "Well, what do you want?" "I want to tell you that when I get down to the office they'll search me." She looked at me amazed. "And and there's something in my pocket I you wouldn't like them to find." "What in the world my diamonds! You did take them, you little wretch?"
Moriway, gentlemen don't swear in my garden. Particularly when ladies are present. Shall we say good evening? Here comes Mulhill now.... Nothing, Sergeant? Too bad the rogue escaped, but you'll catch him. They may get away from you, but they never stay long, do they? Good evening good evening, Mr. Moriway." They tramped on and out, Moriway's very back showing his rage.
I heard it bellowed in a dozen different voices, and every now and then I could hear Moriway as I pelted on that brassy, cruel bellow of his that made my heart sick. And then all at once I heard a policeman's whistle. That whistle was like a signal I saw the gates of the Correction open before me. I saw your Nance, Tom, in a neat striped dress, and she was behind bars bars bars!
"I'm just in time, Mr. Moriway, to see that my mother's not made unhappy by your presence." "Evelyn!" Mrs. Kingdon remonstrated. "Come, Sarah." Moriway offered his arm. The bride shook her head. "To-morrow," she said feebly. Moriway breathed a swear. Miss Kingdon laughed. "I've come to take care of you, you silly little mother, dear.... It won't be to-morrow, Mr. Moriway."
"Is he telling the truth?" Moriway asked Mrs Kingdon. "Ye es, I guess he is; but where are the diamonds? We must have them you know to-day, George," she whispered. And then she turned and went upstairs, leaving Moriway to do the rest. "There's only one thing to do, Major," he said to the proprietor. "Search 'em all and then " "Search me? It's an outrage!" cried the housekeeper.
Moriway spoke of. I hold to my first opinion you're very feminine, Miss Omar. Will you read to me now, if you please?" He pointed to a big open book on the table beside his couch. "I think if you don't mind, Mr. Latimer, I'll begin the reading to-morrow." I got up to go. I was through with that garden now. "But I do mind!" Silken voice? Not a bit of it!
"But you have said it, Mr. Moriway quite successfully intimated it, I assure you." "She knows of my of Mrs. Kingdon's marriage, that that boy Nat found out about." "And you yourself also, as Miss Omar mentioned." "Myself? Damn it, I'm Moriway, the man she was going to marry. Why shouldn't I " "Ah h!" Latimer's shoulders shook with a gentle laugh. "Well, Mr.
Kingdon and Mr. Moriway." She turned white. "Has that man followed her here? Quick, tell me. Has she actually married him?" "No not yet. It's for five o'clock at the church on the corner." "How do you know?" She turned on me, suddenly suspicious. "Well I do know. And I'm the only person in the house that does." "I don't believe you."
