"Cameron is a Scotch name: to what tribe of Camerons do you belong?" "I don't know," said Evelyn, rather embarrassed; "indeed I know nothing of my father's or mother's family. It is very odd, but I don't think we have any relations. You know when I am of age that I am to take the name of Templeton." "Ah, the name goes with the fortune; I understand. Dear Evelyn, how rich you will be!
"I hope I am not late!" "No," said Templeton, gently, for he had always liked his nephew, and began now to thaw towards him a little on seeing that Lumley put a good face upon the new state of affairs. "No, my dear boy no; but I think order and punctuality cardinal virtues in a well-regulated family." "Dinner, sir," said the butler, opening the folding-doors at the end of the room.
When in after-years Malcolm Herrick reviewed this portion of his life, he owned to himself that during the five weeks that followed the Templeton Bean-feast he had lived in a fool's paradise in a state of beatitude that was as unsubstantial and fleeting as the sunset clouds that piled themselves behind the fir woods.
Templeton has been talking so much about his sister Elizabeth that he quite makes me long to see her, but all the same he seems to care most for his elder sister." "I believe he does," returned Malcolm; "but then she has taken the place of a mother to him. Anna, dear, I was only in jest. I am really very grateful to you and my mother for making Cedric so happy and at home.
"Are you lately from Templeton?" repeated Eve a little surprised that the gentleman did not see fit to answer the question, which was the only one that, as it seemed to her, could have a common interest with them both. "I left home the day before yesterday," Aristabulus now deigned to reply.
Time there was when the keen-edged knife might have vanquished or at least deprived it of its early venom, but the body of a physical coward housed it and denied admittance to all-comers. Templeton Thorpe did not fear death. He wanted to die, he implored his Maker to become his Destroyer.
Templeton, have the kindness to get the Prayer-book my hassock must be fresh stuffed, it gives me quite a pain in my knee. Lumley, will you ring the bell? Your aunt is very melancholy. True religion is not gloomy; we will read a sermon on Cheerfulness." "So, so," said Mr.
"And when shall we return to England, sir?" "Not immediately, I believe. We shall probably remain in New York until the first United States expeditionary force sets forth. We shall probably go aboard one of the convoys." "That suits me, sir," said Jack. "Does it you, Frank?" "Down to the ground," was Frank's reply. "Very well," said Lord Hastings. "Mr. Templeton, you will take the bridge.
Jack addressed the senior officer, a major. "I am Captain Templeton of H.M.S. Essex," he said. "Will you please escort me into the presence of the commandant?" "With pleasure, sir," replied the major. "Come with me." He led the way, Frank and the other American officers following. Jack was received immediately by the commandant.
Heedless of these familiar cheers for lately this has been a daily performance Wyndham saves his honour at two seconds to six, the identical moment when Forbes's last ball sends the Templeton bails flying high over long-stop's head, and Willoughby is proclaimed winner of the match by one innings and three runs. A jovial party assembles an hour later for "high tea" in the captain's study.
