"There has been some litigation over this property, consequently the government can do nothing till the courts have settled the matter," recited O'Mally glibly. "Oh." The quintet consulted their guide-books, but before they had located the paragraph referring to this work, O'Mally was cunningly leading them on to the Della Robbias which hung in the ruined pavilion.
O'Mally, the apothecary, who has been my very obliging medical adviser for so many years, and who strenuously advocated an immediate course of waters at Bath. It being arranged with Mrs. Hambledon that she should herself conduct Molly to us later on. "We have been here about three weeks. Though persuaded by good Mr.
They gave chase, but couldn't find hide nor hair of him." Merrihew looked significantly at Hillard, who signed to him to be silent. "I am glad that we can sail Saturday," said Kitty. She was very tired. "So am I," echoed Smith. "All I want is a heart-to-heart talk with old Broadway. Never again for mine!" "Go on!" said O'Mally. "You'll be talking about this for the next ten years."
Taking this as the golden text, I propose that each of you will spare me what money you can, and Kitty and I will go to Monte Carlo and take one plunge at the tables." "Monte Carlo!" O'Mally brought down his fist resoundingly. "That's a good idea. If you should break the bank, think of the advertisement when you go back to New York.
Why, this is downright extortion!" declared the woman with the eyeglasses. She was vehement, too. O'Mally gave vent to a perfect Italian shrug, and put a hand out suggestively toward the gates. "Oh, come, dear," protested one of the men wearily; "you've dragged us up here from Fiesole and I'm not going back without seeing what's to be seen."
It was reassuring. "All right." O'Mally accepted the yellow sheet which the government folds and pastes economically. There were fifty words or more. "I can make out a word or two," he said; "it's in Italian. Will you read it for me?" "I forgot," apologetically.
"I know something of these foreign hotel managers. Words are all right, but they must be backed by concrete values." Worth's eye was still steady and unwavering. "If, as I believe, you have guaranteed our credit here by means of jewels, we must know." She appealed silently to O'Mally, but he shook his head determinedly.
Then, without further hesitance, indifferent to the future or the past, conscious only of the vast happiness of the present, Kitty laid her hand in his. He would have drawn her into his arms had not they both seen O'Mally pushing through the box-hedge, followed by some belated tourists. Merrihew swore softly and Kitty laughed.
At odd whiles he had a vision of Kitty in her simple white dress, of Merrihew's flushed face, of Hillard's frowning pallor, of La Signorina wholly in black, a rare necklace round her white throat, a star of emeralds in her hair, her face calm and serene. Where would they all be on the morrow? "Pietro, she is more than beautiful!" sighed O'Mally. "But wait," said Pietro.
O'Mally that the waters would benefit my old bones, I was actuated, I must confess, by another motive in seeking this Fashionable Resort.
