"After that, Miss Ellen Huntley, I think you had better sit down." Ellen sat down, and cried until she was calm. Nothing of sufficient consequence to record here, occurred for some weeks to the Channings, or to those connected with them. October came in; and in a few days would be decided the uncertain question of the seniorship.
Had his eyes witnessed Arthur positively stealing the bank-note, his mind, his judgment would have refused credence to his eyes. You may, therefore, judge that neither then, nor afterwards, was he likely to admit the possibility of Arthur's guilt. "And the college school is saying that Tom shall not stand for the seniorship!" he resumed aloud. "Does my son say it?"
Their route lay through part of the Netherlands, through Malines, and some beautiful valleys; so beautiful that it is worth going the whole distance from England to see them. "What is this disturbance about the seniorship, and Lady Augusta Yorke?" asked Mr. Huntley, as it suddenly occurred to his recollection, in the earlier part of their journey.
"What d'ye mean?" growled old Ketch. "Is this a way to come and set upon a gentleman in his own house? Who taught you manners, Joe Jenkins?" "You have been repeating what I mentioned last night about Lady Augusta's son getting the seniorship," said Jenkins, coming in and closing the door. "You did say it," retorted Mr. Ketch. "I know I did. But I did not suppose you were going to repeat it again."
"It's no business of yours, Mr. Brittle, that you should interfere to take an active part in it," resumed Gerald Yorke. "No business of mine! That's good! When I'm thinking of going in for the seniorship myself another time!"
"Were I going in for the seniorship, and one below me were suddenly hoisted above my head and made cock of the walk, I'd know the reason why. It is not talking that would satisfy me, or grumbling either; I'd act." "Gaunt doesn't sign it," proceeded Griffin, telling off the names upon his fingers. "That's one. Huntley, do you?" "I don't come next to Gaunt," was Huntley's answer.
