There are many devices for carrying luggage, but for getting a good deal into a small compass there is nothing equal to a big Scotch hold-all. It is waterproof to begin with, and holds more than a small steamer-trunk. It can be strapped in or under the machine anywhere. Trunks and hat-boxes may remain with the express companies, always within a few hours' call.
For Heaven's sake, tell me where you are. I want to see you! Where are you? Where are you?" "I'm downstairs." "Where? Here at the 'Carlton'?" "Here at the 'Carlton'!" "Alone?" "Quite alone." "You won't be long!" said George. He hung up the receiver, and bounded across the room to where his coat hung over the back of a chair. The edge of the steamer-trunk caught his shin.
The unpacking of his steamer-trunk and the disposal of his possessions in his small apartment was a matter of interest to the whole family. Each article was politely examined and exclaimed over, and when Merrit drew out a package of photographs and showed them his home and family and friends, the excitement became intense.
Her confidence was so complete in him, now that he had come, that she would have been satisfied, so she believed at that hour, if he had said: "I was unable to come sooner; I am sorry." For love is content with little while it is young. Agnes thought of her prettiest dress, tucked away in the little steamer-trunk, and brought it out.
I don't know what I should have done if the steward hadn't informed them that he could not move their steamer-trunk until morning. There wouldn't have been room for both of us under the berth, sir. If the gentleman had been alone I shouldn't have minded in the least remaining, under his berth, but he " Captain Trigger: "How did you happen to get into that room, young man?
The girls came down and sat on my steamer-trunk, and told me of the flirtations going on on deck. And every night that dear stewardess would come and tuck me in, and turn out the light, and say, "Good-night, fräulein; I hope you feel to-morrow better." When the pilot reached us we were at luncheon, and every man in the dining-room bolted. American newspapers after eight days of suspense!
This was the first time that Esther had had her clothes on; the old lady had helped her to dress, unpacking with her own hands the little steamer-trunk that had been fetched from the Route de Grasse, and given orders to the chambermaid to press all its contents and put them in order. Esther glanced down at her frock.
From the pasters to be seen on them, they have come from the Continental Hotel, Paris, by way of the Ritz, London. At this latter place their stay was short. This is proved by the fact that only the steamer-trunk is pasted with the Ritz label. And this trunk was the one I found in their room at the Universal. From it Miss Willetts had taken the dress she wore to the museum.
"They took my hotel key: nothing else." "Was that a serious matter, Mr. McKay?" He studied her with narrowing brown eyes. "Oh, no," he said. "I had nothing of value in my room at the Astor except a few necessaries in a steamer-trunk.... Thank you so much for all your kindness to me, Miss Erith," he added, as though relieving her of the initiative in terminating the interview.
"Ah! but you fly away!" she cried, lifting her eyebrows mournfully, as she saw the steamer-trunk in his gondola. "You are goin' return to America?" "No. I'm just leaving for Rome." "Well, in three day' I am goin' to Rome!" She clapped her hands lightly and laughed.
