Bud called her had been true, after all! And it broke your heart to have nothing to report when you saw her!" "I do remember," said Larcher. Florence's lip quivered. "I stood there in the darkness, like a man stunned, for several minutes," Turl proceeded. "There was so much to make out.
As light flashed over Edna's face, Larcher found his tongue to express a certain doubt: "But how could that be? Davenport had a letter from you before he before any transformation could have begun. I saw it the night before he disappeared it was signed Francis Turl." Turl smiled. "Yes, and he asked if you could infer the writer's character.
"I remember," he said, musing, "at Oxford, one night, walking back to college with your brother John. We had been visiting the prisoners in Bocardo. As we turned into the Turl between Exeter and Jesus colleges there, at the end of the street it is little more than a lane beyond the spire of All Saints' this planet was shining.
These words, though few, were uttered with an uncommon glow of benevolence. My heart was full, my passions, like the arrow in the bent bow, were with force restrained, and I snatched his hand and pressed it with great fervour. 'May you never want a friend, Mr. Turl, said I; 'and may you never find a false one! Your opinions differ from mine, but I see and feel you are a man of virtue.
Bagley took his departure, therefore, with the dry voice and set face of one who has difficulty in holding his wrath. Perceiving that something was amiss, Mr. In magnifying his newly discovered Bagley, Mr. Kenby committed the blunder of taking too little account of Turl; and thus Turl found himself suddenly alone with Florence.
Warned by the information which Turl had communicated, and disgusted by what I myself had seen and partaken of, I industriously for sometime avoided Hector Mowbray, who as it happened was too much engaged in his own pursuits to molest me.
"Would you accept the two thousand, then, as Murray Davenport's right, you being a kind of an heir of his?" "I would accept the whole amount in dispute; but under that, not a cent." Bagley looked at Turl long and hard; then said, quietly: "I tell you what I'll do with you. I'll toss up for that money, the whole amount. If you win, keep it, and I'll shut up.
By the order of his lordship, two chairmen with a horse were dispatched for my effects; and possession was given me of the apartment occupied by my predecessor. In this apartment a trunk, which he had not removed, was left; and on it was a direction to Henry Turl.
Sometimes Larcher fancied there was the slightest addition of tenderness to that amiability when Turl regarded, or spoke to, Florence Kenby. But, if there was, nobody need wonder at it. The newcomer could not realize how permanently and entirely another image filled her heart.
Turl was not a man to be known and to be thought of with apathy. The intelligence Wilmot gave me, softened as it was by the circumstances attending it, produced a very unpleasant feeling. The possibility of the loss of such a man, so wise, so benevolent, and so undaunted in the cause of truth, was a sensation for which I have no epithet.
