He came back in the evening, too, and hung about the museum for hours. The Professor observed him with growing resentment. He suspected the intentions of the sandy man, and he was not wrong. Next day, shortly after the show opened, McKnight came again, with the same notebook and the same suspicious air. He brought five men with him, all solid men in Wildbee, one of them the local constable.
I was trying to think out what it was like you know the way I always did. It used to drive Pap loco I must have been talking to myself. Anyway, there was a fellow standing near me with a notebook and a pencil and he spoke up suddenly kind of sharp, and said: 'Say that again, will you? He was a newspaper reporter, Sheila ... That's how I got into the job. But I'm only telling you because "
If we iver tackle the Spaniards, there'll be many a mama's baby on board this hooker cryin' for home, swate home." "Hod," a six-footer, who played quarter-back on a famous team not long ago, took out his notebook and made an entry. "I'll spot that fellow and make him eat his words before we get into deep water," he said, quietly.
He got up and began walking up and down his office, stopping now and then to shake the fist in which he had crumpled Flannery's letter. Then he called for Miss Merrill. She came, carrying her notebook in one hand and fixing a comb in the back of her hair with the other. "Take this!" said the president angrily.
Up came trotting a brisk little man with a notebook in one hand, a stubby lead-pencil in the other, a look of importance spread over his flushed features, and on his breast a broad, blue ribbon, inscribed: "Chief Marshal." "Smyrna has drawed number five for the squirt," he announced, "fallerin' Vienny. Committee on tub contests has selected Colonel Gideon Ward as referee."
And, day after day, he was shut in his office with Anna Klein. He thought he was madly in love with Marion. He knew that he was not at all in love with Anna Klein. But she helped to relieve the office tedium. He was often aware, sitting at his desk, with Anna before him, notebook in hand, that while he read his letters her eyes were on him.
Then he placed his damp cap on one end of the mantel. The next object to meet his gaze was a well-worn notebook. It was not his own, and it did not look like Phil's. The mystery was solved when he opened it and read, "H.G. Doyle College House," on the fly leaf. He remembered then. He had borrowed it from Doyle almost a week before, at a lecture.
Then, giving way with the oars, we felt our way along her deck to her taffrail, lifted the sinker, and dropped it again, clear of the wreck, until it touched bottom. Then, noting the depth as so many knots and fractions of a knot, I jotted the result in my notebook while, the oarsmen keeping the boat in position, another cast was made at the bow end of the boat.
There is a little turning not far from the wharf, known locally it does not appear upon any map as Prickler's Lane; and my friend, the vicar, tells me that he has held the theory for a long time" Sowerby referred to his notebook with great solemnity "that this is a corruption of Pre-aux-Clerce Lane." "H'm!" said Dunbar; "very ingenious, at any rate. Anything else?"
Adam dropped the ice into a mug of pear cider and squatted beside her with a shabby notebook. "Here's somethin' for October 10, 1919." He read: "'Talked to a man from Ilium to-day in Palace Bar. Myrtle married to John Egg. Four children. Egg worth a wad. Dairy and cider business. Going to build new Presbyterian church. That's it, Mamma. He doped it all out from the diary."
