May I have the honor?" Raybold looked at him without speaking. Here was an example of the silly absurdity of throwing pearls before swine. He had never wanted to have anything to do with the fellow when he was in the gutter, and he wanted nothing to do with him now. With a little flush on her face Mrs. Archibald rose.
Perkenpine come over when she has arranged the tent for the night. Arthur, will you go and tell her?" Her brother did not immediately rise to execute this commission. He hoped that Mr. Clyde would offer to do the service, but the latter did not improve the opportunity to make himself agreeable to the new-comer, and Raybold did the errand.
She was so angry she could scarcely speak, but she managed to bring some words to her lips to express her condition of mind. "Mr. Raybold," she cried, "if I ever hear any more of that horrid trash from you I will speak to Mr. Archibald, and have him drive you out of this camp.
Now, sir," she said, turning to Raybold, "let me hear you call me Margery again!" She waited for about a half a minute, but she was not called by name. Then she and Martin went away. She had nearly reached the cabin before she spoke, and then she turned to the young man and said: "Martin, you needn't trouble yourself about putting up that hammock now; I don't want to lie in it.
Perkenpine brought me my clothes, she carried away with her all the provisions that had been left there. I supped, it is true, with Miss Raybold, but her appetite is so delicate and her fare so extremely simple that I confidentially acknowledge that I am half starved." During these remarks Matlack had stood quietly gazing at the bishop.
Raybold did not change his position, but with a smile of indulgent condescension he remarked: "Now, then, you are angry; but I don't mind that, and I am quite sure you do not mean it. You see, you have never heard all that I have to say to you. When I have fully spoken to you, then I have no fear "
"Miss Raybold," she said, "let me present to you" and she hesitated for a moment "the gentleman we call the bishop. I think you have heard us speak of him." "Yes," said Miss Raybold, rising, with a charming smile on her handsome face, and extending her hand, "I have heard of him, and I am very glad to meet him."
When first asked to join the boating party Miss Corona Raybold hesitated; she did not care very much about boating; but when she found that if she stayed in camp she would have no one to talk to, she accepted the invitation. Mr. Archibald took the oars nearest the stern, while Matlack seated himself forward, and this arrangement suited Miss Corona exactly.
In two minutes he had made up his mind: he would eat his breakfast he could not travel upon an empty stomach and then he would depart. That was imperative. When he reached the camp he found that Raybold had risen and was pouring out for himself a bowl of coffee.
"I am getting tired of the way the Raybolds are trespassing on the good-nature of the Archibalds, and, whatever they do, I don't intend to let them make me trespass any longer. I haven't anything to do with Miss Raybold, but the other tent belongs as much to me as it does to her brother, and I am going to take it back to our own camp. And what is more, I am going to have my meals there.
