In fact, Coke had already called both Watts and Hozier into council, and they had agreed with him that the wiser plan would be to bear in towards the island from the east, and anchor in smooth water as close to South Point as the lead would permit. As for Iris's wild foreboding that the ship was intended to be lost, Philip did not give it other than a passing thought.

I came to Midway by the Eastfield freight, and when I saw another operator in the station office, I started up towards the boarding-house, and met Orr coming down. I mention this to show my story is all straight. "I heard he was going to give us away as soon as he had got enough loot himself, and claim he only went in with us to get us. That is why I am showing him up. "Yours truly, "W. Watts."

Watts has admirably caught the sweetness and sorrow of this situation in his beautiful picture, which, again, is one of the very few he considered finally "finished." It is almost a monochrome of blues and greys.

'oo, did you say, miss?" demanded Watts, whose lower jaw actually dropped from sheer amazement. "Mr. Verity, the owner of the Andromeda. You are one of the crew, I suppose?" "I'm the chief officer. Watts is my name, miss. But d'you mean to tell me that ole David Verity 'as come 'ere to Brazil to this rotten . . . Sorry, miss, but you gev' me a turn, you did. An' Dickey Bulmer is 'e 'ere too?"

The great heavy bellows was half as large as he was, but the little chap would sit in McHurdie's harness shop of a summer afternoon and swing the instrument up and down as the melody swelled or died, and sway his body with the time and the tune, as Watts McHurdie, who owned the accordion, swayed and gyrated when he played. Mrs.

And it was not difficult, recalling all my boyish dislike for John Johnson and his steadily contemptuous treatment of me, to make him the chief object of my aversion. We talked of him now, and of his wife, a beautiful, sweet-faced girl of twenty, who had been Polly Watts of New York. My companion pointed her out to me, as one of a circle beyond the fire-place.

Cameron, who was the pioneer in artistic photography as we know it to-day were known as Beauty, Dash, and Talent. There were two more beautiful sisters, Mrs. Jackson and Mrs. Dalrymple. Gladstone, Disraeli and Browning were among Mr. Watts' visitors. At Freshwater, where I went soon after my marriage, I first saw Tennyson. As I write down these great names I feel almost guilty of an imposture!

"Do explain these mysterious remarks," said Dorothy. "Mr. Stirling and I officiated at a wedding, and I was in such mortal terror lest some usher should step on my gown, that it became a joke." "Whose wedding was that?" asked Miss De Voe. "Miss Pierce's and Watts D'Alloi's," said the bridesmaid. "Do you know Watts D'Alloi?" exclaimed Miss De Voe to Peter. "Yes." "Indeed! When?" "At college."

For every turn of those wheels seemed to fall into a rhythmic repetition of: "If I had only said 'good-bye." The train was late in arriving, and Watts tried to induce Leonore to go to a hotel for the night. She only said "No. Take me to him," but it was in a voice which Watts could not disregard.

The Lambs were charming in the new gowns; but, thanks to Uncle Cliff, not a whit more so than her beloved We Are Sevens a fact which the Lambs themselves appreciated. Joy Cross, between Blue Bonnet and kind-hearted Wee Watts, looked very happy. The place cards caused great amusement; and it is safe to say that each one found its way into a memory book for future reference and pleasure.
