She stole softly to the place where she had heard the suit-case fall, and, picking it up, started on the weary road back to the tank. Could she ever find the way? The trail seemed so intangible a thing, her sense of direction so confused. Yet there was nothing else to do. She shuddered whenever she thought of the man who had been her companion on horseback.
I've a frock or two, and the new khaki things for to-morrow, in my suit-case, but nothing else. Brushes and combs and so on, I can get here I'm sure. But would the shops if any run to nighties?" "No," said Nick, gloomily. "I'm afraid they wouldn't, anyhow not the sort that deserves a nice pet name like that. But I'll get you one." "You can't," said Angela.
Can you lend me a bag, doctor? I'm off to Wardour Street this very moment." We furnished him with an empty suit-case, and, from the window, watched him making for Mitre Court at a smart double. "I wonder if he will find the booty," said Thorndyke. "It just depends on whether the hiding-place was known to more than one of the gang. Well, it has been a quaint case, and instructive, too.
Chapin himself led Glass around the house, while that gentleman made no offer to explain the dream which had prompted him to pack his suit-case before letting himself out of the training- quarters.

A stout figure, carrying a suit-case, was moving slowly down it. I smiled. Her eyes met mine, and I saw the anger that had been lying at the back of them flash out.

"There's a certain kind of perfume Sis uses awful expensive. Roland Warren used to bring it to her. Well, I've been using it too and Sis never did get wise.
This suit-case hasn't been in use very long see, the leather's almost unworn and those things on the dressing-table are new. And what there is here looks new, too. There's not much, you see he evidently had no intention of a long stop. An extra pair of trousers some shirts socks collars neckties slippers handkerchiefs that's about all.
While we were arranging to go ashore together, one of the many boatmen who had come out to the ship picked up my suit-case while my back was turned, and the next thing I saw of it he was taking it down the stairs to one of the small boats.

"Coming fast!" shouted a voice from the edge of the throng, and the big centre, suit-case in hand, pushed his way toward the barges. "Right through!" laughed the fellows. "Hit the line, Innes! A-a-ay!" "Kendall," continued Lawrence. "Lacey, Marvin, Miller, Milton, McClure, Norton, Roberts, Still, Thursby, Williams!" "All present and accounted for," announced a voice in the crowd. "Home, James!"
When the time came to start for the ball Gifford went down to see his friend off and to repeat his orders concerning the immediate delivery of his suit-case when it should arrive. Henshaw was in the hall, bulking big in a fur coat and complaining in a masterful tone of the unpunctuality of his fly.
