Ged, he'd have been done for if I hadn't got me Westley Richards to bear on him. 'Duck man I duck! I cried, for they were so mixed that I couldn't tell one from the other. He put his head down, and I caught the brute right between the eyes. Ye can see the track of the bullet on the bone."
Westley asked, with more or less of that incredulity concerning the performance of a woman which all the sex feel, in spite of their boasting about one another. "Has she so much talent?" "Why not? Somebody has to have the talent." This was like Wetmore's tone, and it made Mrs. Westley think of him. "And do you believe she could get her picture into the exhibition?"
By tact alone had he achieved that which open sneers, covert insult, abuse, ridicule, contumely, and forthright threats had failed to consummate, and in the first flush of the news we all felt much as Westley Keyts said he did. "Solon Denney is some subtler than me," said Westley, in a winning spirit of concession; "I can see that, now.
Jerry wore the boyish outfit in which John Westley had found her. Three happier, merrier girls could not have been found the world over. A week a week of hourly wonders, had passed since the girls had arrived at Sunnyside with Uncle Johnny. To Jerry the homecoming was even sweeter than she had dreamed.
She went home from the class vexed to tears by her failure, and puzzled to know what she really should say to that Mrs. Westley when she came; it wouldn't be so easy to tell her she was not going, after all. Cornelia hated her, and wished she would not come; she had let the whole week go by, now, till Thursday, and perhaps she really would not come.
As to the damage suit, Westley found it unthinkable that Potts could deteriorate ten thousand dollars worth and still walk the earth. Indeed, he believed, and uttered a few rough words to express it, that ten dollars would be an excessive valuation even if Potts were utterly destroyed. Being an earnest soul, Westley had taken the Potts affair very seriously.
But if it makes one cry to be married " "Darling" and Mrs. Westley took Isobel's hand in hers "we leave our childhood and again our girlhood with a few tears, perhaps, but always there is the wonder of the bigger life ahead. I think even in dying there must be the same joy.
Jerry was quite breathless; she had never debated in her life but then she had never played basketball either. "Oh, do sign. We're all joining and it's awfully exciting," pleaded Patricia. So Jerry signed for the debates. "Whenever will I find time to study Latin and geometry? I know I'm going to be dumb in that," cried Jerry, that evening, to the Westley family.
Then John Westley did what in all his thirty-five years he had never done before he fainted. He made one little effort to rise and walk down the rocky steps but instead he rolled in an unconscious heap right to the girl's feet. He wakened, some moments later, to a consciousness of cool water in his face and a pair of anxious brown eyes close to his own.
He did not name these solicitous friends; but it was an easy suspicion that they were the Democratic leaders, who thought by this means to draw votes from the Republican candidate to the advantage of their own, who, otherwise, was conceded to have no hope of election in a county overwhelmingly Republican. It may be told with adequate confidence that Westley Keyts was not of their number.
