Robin turned to the detective. "There are some of your men, I believe," he said coldly, "watching this house. Would it be asking too much to request that my friend here might be permitted to return home unescorted?"
"I was thinking of a running visit to my friend Miss Darleton." "May I venture? I had the fancy that you wished to see Miss Darleton to-day. You cannot make the journey unescorted." "Please retain the fly. Where is Willoughby?" "He is in jack-boots. But may I not, Miss Middleton? I shall never be forgiven if you refuse me." "There has been searching for me?" "Some hallooing.

"He told me just now," said King, "that Yasmini went up the Pass unescorted, mounted on a mare the very dead spit of the black one you say you wanted to buy." Courtenay whistled. "I'm sorry, King. I'm sorry to say he lied." "Will you come and listen while I have it out with him?"
Questioned as to the whereabouts of the Kinshiu, he expressed surprise at her non-arrival, briefly relating particulars of the discussion which had resulted in the transport leaving Iwon, unescorted, while he remained in harbour to see what the weather developments were going to be.

Now, quite alone and unescorted, she was on her way to Mexico City, where she expected to be met by some friends of her uncle.
"I met you first, then, never mind exactly how long ago, on the steamer coming from America. You were quite alone, unescorted, and unchaperoned. That in itself, as of course you know, was a very remarkable thing. Nevertheless, I think you will admit that it did not terrify me. We became well, pretty good friends, didn't we?" "I think we did," she admitted.
