"I don't think that's quite fair," I said. "After all, it's YOUR bag. If you take it for an hour and a half, I don't mind taking the other half." "Your shoes are heavier than mine, anyhow." "My pyjamas weigh less. Such a light blue as they are." "Ah, but my tooth-brush has lost seven bristles. That makes a difference." "What I say is, let every man carry his own bag.
They at least Tamara could see the yellow back of the book, and also, one regrets to add, she was conscious that the young man was only clothed in blue and white striped silk pyjamas! the jacket of which was open and showed his chest and one foot, stretched out and hanging over the back of another low chair, was actually bare! Mrs.
I was not overcome, for I e'en sat me down under the pieces o' the table at four the morn an' meditated upon the strangeness of things. 'Losh, yon's the breakfast-bell! Hans Breitmann paddled across the deck in his pink pyjamas, a cup of tea in one hand and a cheroot in the other, when the steamer was sweltering down the coast on her way to Singapur.

"The police, I believe, suspect me of shooting her," said Hugh bluntly. "That's very awkward. Why?" "Well they don't know the true reason I went to see her, or they would never believe me to be guilty of a crime so much against my own interests." Brock, who was still sitting up in bed in his pale blue silk pyjamas, reflected a few moments.
