This "noble" lord made himself the first clown of the turnout in consequence of the ridiculous, pompous, ungrammatical ukases addressed to the workers, which he published from time to time, with no other result than the merriment of the nation.
"You will need a lot of capital," continued Lucien. "No, only devotion," said d'Arthez. "Anybody might take him for a perfumer's assistant," burst out Michel Chrestien, looking at Lucien's head, and sniffing comically. "You were seen driving about in a very smart turnout with a pair of thoroughbreds, and a mistress for a prince, Coralie herself." "Well, and is there any harm in it?"
Each was in charge of a chauffeur, and soon the boys and girls went ashore and piled in. Dick and Dora, Sam and Grace, and Fred got in the first turnout and the others in the second. "Now do not go too far," said Mrs. Stanhope, "and be sure and keep on roads that are safe." "And do not stay out later than ten o'clock this evening," added Mrs. Laning.
The carriage and its occupants formed the centre of attraction to a considerable portion of the crowd, until attention was suddenly diverted by the sight of a stylish turnout in the shape of an elegant trap and a pair of superb bays driven tandem, which passed the Mainwaring carriage and took its position at some distance nearer the pier.
A genial-looking fat man in a linen duster and a wide-brimmed hat was just clambering in over the wheel when he spied the two pedestrians gazing at the turnout, and called good-naturedly: "Want a lift? I'm goin' inter New Hartz." "Thanks. That is just where we are going, too," Jim replied promptly. "It's awfully good of you to take us along."
They make all the trouble in the world." It was daybreak when the coup reached Paris. Pierre heard, as they passed the barrier, a laborer say to his mate "That's a fine turnout. I wish I was in the place of the one who is riding inside!" "So do I!" returned the other. And Pierre thought, philosophically: "Poor fools! If they only knew!"
At the back was a door with little windows on each side and a flight of steps leading up to it. As I stood looking at this queer turnout, the little reddish man climbed down from in front and stood watching me. His face was a comic mixture of pleasant drollery and a sort of weather-beaten cynicism. He had a neat little russet beard and a shabby Norfolk jacket. His head was very bald.
He threw off the power and applied the emergency brake and the automobile just passed Sam and no more. "What's the matter?" came from everyone in the second car. "That's what's the matter," answered Sam, pointing to the foot of the rocky hill. "That wagon Well, I declare!" The youngest Rover stared and well he might, for the farmer's turnout with the load of lime had disappeared from view.
At the battle of Belle Isle, I was there all the while, etc., etc. Everybody clustered round to listen, and to admire the turnout. I could not get very near to the cart, because of the press; but I noticed quite suddenly that the sick man was staring rather hard at me from under the rim of his glazed hat, which was jammed down over his eyes. The eyes seemed familiar.
In this strange equipage, therefore, we set out, and nine long miles we drove through a country which seemed to rise with increasing surprise at us and our turnout on each inquiry we made for the way from chance passers.
