"May I come and see you there, father?" "Well, my girl, I think not. Such a a splendid-looking sort of a party as you've turned out coming to visit me would make people talk. And we don't want people to talk, do we? Isn't there any quiet spot where you and me could meet and walk about a bit? Kensington Gardens; maybe, or Regent's Park?"
He was walking with a tall splendid-looking man, with whom he was engaged in most earnest conversation, and his look was grave and deeply absorbed. He did not know of Kate’s presence in New York, and passed the house in utter unconsciousness of the eyes watching him.
"Then," continued Hal, "that splendid-looking chap on father's right was his guide and personal cook the one in the blanket coat and sash. He was part French but mostly Indian, I fancy Why, what's the matter, Larocque?" for Shag had suddenly made some inarticulate exclamation, and had carried the photograph nearer the light. "That is my father," he said quietly.
The consulates are very much in evidence, with guards of splendid-looking Albanian kavasses. Politically only Austria and Italy are vitally interested in Albania, and these countries have large consular staffs and fine buildings and post offices. Owing to the absence of the British Consul, we went to see the acting Vice-Consul, who is a Scutarine, and a very courteous gentleman.
The other young lady, that follows, is a little too much of Juno, and somewhat too little of Venus. She is a tall, splendid-looking heifer, as fine a gall as you will see in any country, and she takes it for granted you don't need to inquire who she is. She ain't bold, and she ain't diffident; but she can stare as well as you can, and has as good a right too.
They were guarding the American consulate from the mob. They were splendid-looking fellows. Is your father's regiment of that kind of men?" "Father's regiment?" she said, angrily. "That's just the difficulty now. He hasn't any soldiers. Those that he had were taken away from him. So he must go and gather some more, or President Paredes will say that he is not patriotic.
Vaughn were in that curious throng on the platform, where a depot was being built. "My! What a splendid-looking fellow," said Polly, as the stranger passed, Trove had a swift pang of jealousy that moment. Turning, he saw Riley Brooke now known as the "Old Rag Doll" standing near them in a group of villagers.
As we did so, the three Fung, splendid-looking, black-faced fellows, arrived at a furious gallop, their lances pointed at us. "Stand still, friends," said Maqueda; "they mean no harm." As the words passed her lips, the Fung pulled the horses to their haunches, Arab-fashion, lifted spears and saluted.
He kept telling her there was nothing to be sad about. It was all going to be for her good. When the time came to go, the strange pair made their way down to the ship the tall, erect, splendid-looking man and the little red-haired girl in her simple black suit and her little black hat, with red flowers to brighten it.
Rose laughed a rather forced laugh, though. "Don't fall in love with my handsome brother-in-law, Em. Kate won't like it." "They are to be married next June, are they not?" asked Emily, not noticing the insinuation, save by a slight colour, which the twilight hid. "So they say." "They will be a splendid-looking pair.
