After consulting for a few minutes, they decided that they could give the elephant trainer and his assistant what they sought. "When will you have it ready?" "Maybe in time for tonight's performance, but I can't promise for sure." "Thank you," exclaimed Phil, hurrying away to consult with Mr. Sparling.
Prescott walked between Mrs. Bentley and Laura, while Greg came along with Belle just behind them. "Are you taking me to the hop tonight, Mr. Holmes?" asked Belle with her usual directness. Poor Greg, seasoned cadet though he was, flushed uncomfortably. "I should be," stammered Greg, "but it happens that I am already engaged to drag -to escort a young lady to tonight's hop."
"Mr. Reade!" called a husky-toned voice, "won't you order your men to let me through to see you? I want to talk with you about tonight's outrage." Tom recognized the speaker as a man named Beasley, one of Paloma's most upright and courageous citizens. "Let Mr. Beasley through," Tom called. "Don't block the streets, men. Remember, we've no right to do that."
You can see by tonight's experience the sort of adventure into which we are constantly running. We scouts of the lake have to watch ourselves against whole hordes of wily, savage Indian scouts and spies. Some of our number are killed and cut off with each encounter; and yet we live and thrive and prosper.
No one, however, could by any effort remember having noticed a costume anything like that described by me. "Are there any secret passages to any of the rooms and galleries which are the scene of tonight's festivities?" I asked a doorkeeper.
Aye, Holy Joe, as well as myself, was lifted to higher estate by that night's happenings. He lived aft, even as I, the rest of the voyage, and was doctor of bodies as well as souls. Near dawn, they called me into the cabin, and put dead man's shoes upon my feet, so to speak. "Shreve, it is my duty to take the ship into port," says Lynch. "What will be the outcome of tonight's work, I do not know.
Why, he wondered, did Tim seem to take such a delight in going against everybody else? He was sure now that what Barbara said was right. Tim was sound at heart. Look how clean he came to tonight's meeting. And yet "Going to get needles and thread and things?" Andy whispered. Don nodded. Oh, yes; he'd get them.
They met our suggestion with a law excluding Venus immigrants entirely. It was this, I think, that precipitated tonight's events though of course they must have been brewing for a long time." "This Tarrano " I began. "I heard of him when I was in Venus," said Dr. Brende. "He was at that time a lower official in the Cold Country. Evidently he has risen in his world.
"If it pleases you to represent that the whole thing was accidental and you don't deserve to be promoted sergeant for tonight's work, at least you might respect my vanity." Polly saw her opportunity. She crossed boldly and made as if to lay over the Corporal's mouth the hand that would fain have boxed his ears.
She accepted his attentions rigidly. Once or twice she had seemed almost frightened; twice Baree had heard the sharp clicking of her teeth. The previous night, and all through tonight's storm, their companionship had grown more intimate, but now there was taking its place a mysterious aloofness on the part of Maheegun. Pierrot could have explained.
