"My good woman," said Campbell, panting for breath, "bring me face to face with that man, and I'll put a five-pound note in your hand there and then." "Five pounds is a sight to me: but it's a sight more than the sight of he's worth," said she suspiciously again. "That's the gentleman's concern," said Tom. "The money's yours. I suppose you know the worth of it by now?" "Ees, none better.

He turned upon her suspiciously. "You think I wrote it?" he demanded. "My thoughts are my own," retorted Mary Louise. Kasker's frown deepened. "Your thoughts may get you into trouble, my girl," he said slowly. "Let me tell you this: However much I hate this war, I'm not fighting it publicly.

"I don't know," John reflected, vistas opening before him. "It might be rather a lark." "Whrrr!" said Lady Blanchemain, fanning herself with her pocket-handkerchief. Then she eyed him suspiciously. "You're hiding the nine million other causes up your sleeve.
