"No-thank-you charged Penn with " "Who is No-thank-you?" asked Whalley. "Young Evson, then," said Mackworth sulkily, "charged Penn with bagging a scent-bottle from the old woman's basket, and then he was impudent, so Wilton was going to pitch into him." "And couldn't manage it, apparently," said Whalley; "come, you two, shake hands now."
She sat on the faded sofa, looking as if she just existed by the help of her fan and scent-bottle, and when Gillian directed her attention to the case of clasps and medals and the photograph of the fine-looking officer, she could only sigh out, 'Oh, my dear!
With a slight elevation of her eyebrows, and the application of a scent-bottle to her delicate nose, as if the question had suggested bad smells, the lady said that Well, yes, she had once visited a poor old gardener who had been a faithful creature in the family of a former friend, but that her recollection of that visit did not tend to induce a wish for its repetition.
Charlie was still more amazed; he positively could not understand a great brazen lie like this, and yet it was impossible to doubt that it was a lie, against the evidence of his own senses. "You didn't take that scent-bottle? oh! how can you tell such a lie? I saw you with my own eyes." "What do I care for you or your eyes?" was the only answer which Penn vouchsafed to return.

"Oh, no no he did not mean it," gasped Margaret; "don't." "Harry, I did not think you could be so cowardly and unfeeling!" and Dr. May's look was even more reproachful than his words.
She was crying quite violently, so as to be shaken by the sobs; and her brother stood over her, saying a kind word or two now and then, to try to soothe her; while Kate remained a little way off, with her black eyes wide open, thinking her uncle's face was almost displeased at any rate, very rigid. He looked up at Kate, and signed towards a scent-bottle on the table.
Great eyes like a girl! What did a chap with eyes like that want in the Service? Scent-bottle loss of the Tremendous kidnapping Nelson! Lorlumme, what a yarn! A clamour of feet close by startled his heart. He leapt up, expecting cavalry. But no: it was a patter-footed multitude of sheep, who welled in staring yellow flood over the edge of the saucer and down to the pond.
