"Such an utterly unheard of affront as this " "Glen! run and find Mr. Van Buren!" Beth broke in excitedly. "Don't let him go, Mr. Pratt!"

Poynter had said he was building himself a much-needed tunic, though he had experienced considerable difficulty in the excavation of the sleeves. "What the devil is the matter with you, Carl?" demanded Dick Sherrill irritably.
