"Is the book you speak of something VERY awful?" Mrs. Grendon, with so much these past minutes to have made her so, was at last visibly more present. "That's what Lord Petherton says of it. From what he knows of the author." "So that he wants to keep her ?" "Well, from trying it first. I think he wants to see if it's good for her."
"A man's giant enough for Lord Petherton," she went on, "when his fortune's gigantic. He preys upon you." His hands in his pockets and his legs much apart, Mitchy sat there as in a posture adapted to her simplicity. "You're adorable. YOU don't. But it IS rather horrid, isn't it?" he presently went on. Her momentary silence would have been by itself enough of an answer.
"Awfully good one for you, Duchess and I'm bound to say that, for a clever woman, you exposed yourself! I've at any rate a sense of comfort," Lord Petherton pursued, "in the good relations now more and more established between poor Fanny and Mrs. Brook. Mrs. Brook's awfully kind to her and awfully sharp, and Fanny will take things from her that she won't take from me. I keep saying to Mrs.
Greyle is not present," he said. "He is not at all well. There is no need for his presence he has no evidence to give." "If you don't have Mr. Greyle down here at once," said Petherton, quietly, "this inquest will have to be adjourned for his attendance. You had better send for him or I'll get the authorities to do so.
At the same time, if you'll allow me to say so, it scarcely strikes one that your sister's prudence is such as to have placed all the cards in her hands. She's the most beautiful woman in England, but her esprit de conduite isn't quite on a level. One can't have everything!" she philosophically sighed. Lord Petherton met her comfortably enough on this assumption of his detachments.
Copplestone glanced at the card and read "Sir Cresswell Oliver," He turned wonderingly to his companion, who laughed again. "Sir Cresswell told me to give you that as soon as I conveniently could," he said. "The fact is, I'm not a clergyman at all not I! I'm a private detective, sent down here by him and Petherton. See?"
In the north the hardy Yorkshiremen and Lancastrians recked not for rain and storms, and few covered-in crosses can be found. You will find some beautiful specimens of these at Malmesbury, Chichester, Somerton, Shepton Mallet, Cheddar, Axbridge, Nether Stowey, Dunster, South Petherton, Banwell, and other places.
A waiter also had some sort of recollection of the man, and seeing him in conversation with another man whom he, the waiter, knew better, though he didn't know his name. Swallow is now moving everything to find that man to find anybody who knows our man and something will come of it, in the end must do. In the meantime I came down here with Sir Cresswell and Mr. Petherton, to be on the spot.
They say there is some great lord hiding in the fens beyond the round hill where Tone and Parret join, that we call the Stane somewhere by Long Hill, they say. Now I mind that one day when the king rode with you across the Petherton heights, he looked out over all the fens, and called me and asked much of them.
The solicitor glanced triumphantly at the Coroner and the jury, and the crowd raised unchecked murmurs of approval. Again the foreman endeavoured to stop the proceedings. "We regard all this here as very rude conduct to Mr. Greyle," he said angrily. "We're not concerned " "Mr. Foreman!" said Petherton. "You are a foolish man you are interfering with justice. Be warned!
