Kettle, with devotional intent, had been singing some hymn to him, which he had composed as being suitable for the occasion. But the dying man's ears were dulled, and he mistook both air and words. "You're a good fellow to sing me that," he whispered. "I know you don't like striking up that sort of music. By Jove! I heard that song last at the Pav. Good old Piccadilly Circus."
"I've got one!" he exclaimed, in a low, eager tone. "Don't let any one see; come to my desk." The note this time was very brief: Diggory hastily fished out his double alphabet, wrote down the proper letters as Jack read out those on the paper, and in a few seconds the translation was complete, and read as follows: "After tea under the pav." The three boys stared at it in silence.
Of course, I liked to hear Jowett palaver, and it was quiet and nice enough; but give me life. Bet all day; dinner at the Rainbow, Pav., or Trocadéro, and Globe to finish up. That's life!" If anyone had chances this youth had them, and now his ambition is to bet half-crowns with the riddlings of Creation. This universe is getting to be a little too much for me.
Bumbles had six to win and ten minutes to do it in when Howard was bowled, and Carden, their captain, went in and drove right over the Pav. He won the match by one, don't you remember? And then Kelham caught him magnificently in the slips just as time was up."
They'd be astonished tae hear the sort of talk goes on in the gallery of the Pav., in London just for a sample. I've heard! "Gaw bli'me, Alf 'oo's this toff? Comes on next. 'Mr. Arthur Andrews, the Celebrated Shakespearian Actor." "Never heard on him," says Alf, indifferently. And so it goes. Mr.
Besides, did you happen to see Drake's sprint? 'Jolly good one. 'I know, but look how late he started for it. Thomson crammed on the pace directly he got into the straight. Drake only began to put it on when he got to the Pav. Even then he wasn't far behind at the tape. 'No. Well, I'm not plunging either way. Ought to be a good race. 'Rather.
'Oh, well, said he, 'if you're going to take the high moral standpoint, and descend to brazen platitudes like that, I give you up. 'It's a rum thing about those pots, said Welch, meditatively. 'Seems to me, Jim rejoined, 'the rum thing is that a man who considers the Pav. a safe place to keep a lot of valuable prizes in should be allowed at large.
There are few pleasures keener than the pleasure of telling somebody something he didn't know before. 'Great Scott, he remarked, 'haven't you heard? No, of course you went up to Aldershot before they did it. By Jove. 'Did what? 'Why, they shunted all the Sports prizes from the Board Room to the Pav. and shot 'em into the First room. I don't suppose there's one left now.
Why couldn't they keep them in the Board Room as they used to? 'Thought it 'ud save trouble, I suppose. Save them carting the things over to the Pav. on Sports Day, hazarded Tony. 'Saved the burglar a lot of trouble, I should say, observed Jackson, 'I could break into the Pav. myself in five minutes. 'Good old Jackson, said Charteris, 'have a shot tonight. I'll hold the watch.
The news, however, was not long in spreading. Robinson took care of that. On the way to school he overtook his friend Morrison, a young gentleman who had the unique distinction of being the rowdiest fag in Ward's House, which, as any Austinian could have told you, was the rowdiest house in the School. 'I say, Morrison, heard the latest? 'No, what? 'Chap broke into the Pav. last night.
