"He gave me a gold bag that I happened to admire one day at Tiffany's." "Was it solid gold?" "Yes." "And you accepted it?" Pussy flushed under the judge's searching look. "I wouldn't have accepted it, but this happened just as I was sailing for France. He sent it to the steamer." "Ah! Have you any idea how much M. Kittredge paid for that gold bag?"
"How did it happen, Paul?" "First, I must tell you how much the ring is worth. I went up to Tiffany's, and showed the ring to Mr. Tiffany himself. He told me that he would give me two hundred and fifty dollars for it, if I would satisfy him that I had a right to sell it." "Two hundred and fifty dollars!" repeated Mrs. Hoffman, in amazement. "Yes, the diamond is very large and pure."
Such words as Newport, Bar Harbor, and Tiffany's thrilled her exceedingly. It made no difference that she herself had never been to Newport or Bar Harbor, and had visited Tiffany's more often to admire than to purchase. On the contrary, this rather added a dazzle to the music of the Ogdens.
Turning the corner of Amity street, they walked a short distance downtown, and paused before the handsome jewelry store of Ball & Black. "Why not go to Tiffany's?" "I gather from what the boy told me that the ring has already been offered there. It would be very likely to be recognized and that would be awkward, you know." "Are you sure the ring has not been offered here? asked his wife.
For a moment it looked as though Mr. Blithers would dissolve into tears, so suddenly was he afflicted by self-pity. "By the way, didn't she like the necklace I sent up to her from Tiffany's?" "I suppose so. She said you were a dear old foozler." "Foozler? What's that mean?" He wasn't quite sure, but somehow it sounded like a term of opprobrium. "I haven't the faintest idea," she said shortly.
What I propose is, to carry it to Ball & Black's, or Tiffany's, and sell it for whatever they say it is worth. They are first-class houses, and we can depend upon fair treatment." "Your advice is good, Paul. I think we will follow it. When will you go?" "I will go at once. I have nothing else to do, and I would like to find out as soon as I can how much it will bring.
Appreciating to the full the many reasons for rejoicing that she had not been, he walked in gloomy reflection home. When the marriage took place the event was accompanied by an ingenuously elate flourish of trumpets. Miss Vanderpoel's frocks were multitudinous and wonderful, as also her jewels purchased at Tiffany's. She carried a thousand trunks more or less across the Atlantic.
Gillett of Illinois took us to the Liberal Arts and Woman's buildings. In the former I visited Tiffany's exhibit, and held the beautiful Tiffany diamond, which is valued at one hundred thousand dollars, and touched many other rare and costly things. I sat in King Ludwig's armchair and felt like a queen when Dr. Gillett remarked that I had many loyal subjects.
Negotiations for capitulation having failed, firing was resumed about three o'clock on the 10th, and continued until one o'clock on the 11th of July. In this firing all four of the Gatling guns were used; Tiffany's guns and the dynamite gun under Serg. Borrowe participated. Three of the Gatling guns had been placed in the trench on the night of July 3d.
Then he drove to a hatter's and a shoe house. His next errand was at Tiffany's, where he selected silver mounted brushes and a scarf-pin. He would not wait to have his silver marked, he said. Lastly, he stopped at a trunk shop on Broadway, and had his purchases packed into various travelling bags.
