That section of the ground which was sacred to the school second-eleven matches was allotted to Spence's v. the School House. The idle public divided its attention between the two big games, and paid no attention to the death struggle in progress at the far end of the field. Whereby it missed a deal of quiet fun. I say death struggle advisedly.
Spence's remarks when she came to hear of what had happened, her fine smile to her husband. The occurrence was mortifying. "Miss Doran has put into my hands a letter she received from you this morning, Mr. Elgar." Reuben waited. Mrs. Lessingham had not invited him to sit down; she also stood. "You probably wished me to learn its contents?" "Yes; I am glad you have read it."
Was he not Bob's friend and Delight's uncle, a gentleman of honor who had money enough without stooping to secure more by treachery? And did it not follow that since Mr. Snelling was in his employ he must be a person of reputable character? A fig for Janoah Spence's accusations! Willie blew a contemptuous whiff of smoke into the air.
Hazeldene lunched at home, explained Emma, who was shy, and spoke almost in a whisper; 'she seemed well and cheerful. She went out at about half-past three, and told me she was going to Spence's, in St. Paul's Churchyard, to try on her new tailor-made gown. Mrs. Hazeldene had meant to go there in the morning, but was prevented as Mr. Errington called. "'Mr.
If anyone were to try to transplant him he might vanish altogether. Poor little chap how terribly he would miss me!" finished Desire artlessly. She had accepted the possibility, then! Spence's heart gave a leap and was promptly reproved for leaping. This was not, he reminded himself, an affair of the heart at all. It was a coldly-thought-out, hard-headed business proposition.
In this he expounds a doctrine which is afterwards given in his Political Economy in Connection with the Moral State and Moral Aspects of Society. The main purpose of his early book is the patriotic. It is meant, like Spence's pamphlet, to prove that Napoleon could do us no vital injury. Should he succeed, he would only lop off superfluous branches, not hew down the main trunk.
Draper, dear lad, had the illusion of an "intellectual sympathy" between them; but that, Millner knew, was an affair of reading and not of character. Draper's temerities would always be of that kind; whereas his own well, his own, put to the proof, had now definitely classed him with Mr. Spence rather than with Mr. Spence's son.
Spence's "fragment" in celebration of a night passed in the tomb. I was so thrilled and delighted by these selections that I quite forgot my perplexities, and revelled in the enjoyment of these new-found theories. Presently too Miss Kingsley came over to sit by me, radiant and expressive as before. The coolness on her part had completely vanished, and needless to say my heart felt lighter.
But we may admire Miss Spence's courage and devotion to principle without agreeing with her conclusions. At a meeting held at River House, Chelsea, London, in 1894, Miss Spence submitted an analysis of 8,824 votes recorded at 50 public meetings in South Australia. The audiences were in each case asked to select six representatives out of twelve candidates.
Mallard succeeded in catching Spence's eye, and made him understand with a savage look that he was to take Cecily with him. This arrangement was effected, and the first carriage drove off with those two, Cecily exchanging merry words with an old Italian who had rendered no kind of service, but came to beg his mancia on the strength of being able to utter a few sentences in English.
