When the time arrived, Kirby saw his majesty alone, and related to him in brief that two men waited but an opportunity to shoot him; and Sir George Wakeham had been hired to poison him; which news, he concluded, had been imparted to him by a worthy man living close at hand, who would attend his majesty's pleasure when that was manifested.
"He is going away to Chicago," said Jane abruptly, "to your friends, the Wakehams. Mr. Wakeham is in mines, as you know. Larry is to get two thousand dollars to begin with. It is a good position, and I am glad for him. Oh, there I see Mr. MacLean and Frank Smart coming in." When the party had settled down they discussed the Class lists and prize winners till Dr. Brown appeared.
Thank God, our day has come!" Completely ignoring the rest of the company, the two Germans carried on a rapid and passionate conversation in their own tongue with excited gesticulations, which the professor concluded by turning to his hostess and saying, "Mrs. Wakeham, you will excuse us. Mr. Wakeham, you can send us to town at once?"
"Now then," said Mrs. Waring-Gaunt, "you have your full party, Mr. Wakeham Mr. and Mrs. Gwynne, Dr. Brown, and the three girls." "What about me?" said Larry dolefully. "I shall stay with you," cried Nora, evading Mr. Wakeham's eyes. "No, Nora," said Jane in a voice of quiet decision. "Last night Mrs. Waring-Gaunt and I arranged that I should visit her to-day."
"But why tell me these things now, Miss Wakeham," said Larry, "when you know it is impossible for me to come?" "You won't come?" "I can't come." "Come along then, father," she said, and with a stiff little bow she left Larry at his desk. Before the car moved off Larry came hurrying out. "Here is Elfie's letter," he said. "Perhaps Mrs. Wakeham would like to see it."
Among the experts on Labrador were the following: DR BELL, late head of the Geological Survey of Canada, who has made seven expeditions into Labrador and who has always paid particular attention to the mammals; DR CLARKE, Director of Science Education in the State of New York, who has spent twelve summers studying the natural history of the Gulf; MR. COMEAU, a past master, of fifty years experience as a professional hunter, guide, inspector and salmon river warden on the North Shore; DR GRENFELL, whose intimate acquaintance with the Atlantic Labrador is universally recognised; DR HARE, whose position on the Canadian Labrador corresponds to that of Dr Grenfell on the Atlantic; DR TOWNSHEND, author of the standard work on The Birds of Labrador; and COMMANDER WAKEHAM, head of the Fisheries Protection Service, who knows the wild life of the whole coast, from the River St.
In the previous July, Sir George Wakeham, in writing to a Jesuit named Ashby, stated her majesty would aid in poisoning the king. A few days afterwards, Harcourt and four other Jesuits having been sent for, attended the queen at Somerset House. On that occasion Oates waited on them; they went into a chamber, he stayed without.
"Then," said Miss Wakeham, "a little before seven o'clock the car will be waiting at your office door." "Hooray!" cried Larry. "You are an angel. I will be through." At a quarter of seven Larry was standing on the pavement, which was still radiating heat, and so absorbed in watching for the Wakehams' big car that he failed to notice a little Mercer approaching till it drew up at his side.
You are a citizen of another country while you claim American citizenship?" said Raeder. "You can no more be a citizen of two countries at the same time than the husband of two wives at the same time." "Well, why not?" laughed Schaefer. "An American wife for America, and a German wife for Germany. You will excuse me," he added, bowing toward Mrs. Wakeham. "Don't be disgusting," said Hugo Raeder.
Scread thinks he should get these off as soon as possible. So it is necessary that I stick to it till we get it done." "How long will it take?" said Mr. Wakeham. "I expect to finish to-night some time. I have already had a couple of hours with Dimock to-day. He has left me the data." "Well, I am very sorry, indeed," said Mr. Wakeham.
