The Red Un never lied to the Chief; it was useless. The Chief toyed with his kipper. "Ye'll understand I'd ha' preferred dealin' with the matter mysel'; but it's gone up higher."

"You cannot think how smart I feel, for that pretty brooch that Marcus gave me the day before we were married was my sole piece of jewelry." Mrs. Broderick smiled. "I am not much richer than you in that respect, Livy. I never would let Fergus spend his money on trinkets. I told him I was far too ugly, and that I preferred books.
