Yorke means by being so late. I desire that he will come immediately." The child flew off, and Mr. Galloway, hardly knowing what to make of matters, proceeded to do what he ought to have found done. He and Jenkins had duplicate keys to the desks, letter-box, etc. Since Jenkins's illness, his keys had been in the possession of Roland. Presently the child came back again.
Yorke, afterwards the Lord Chancellor Hardwicke, one of the greatest lawyers that England has produced. In 1740, his power began to decline, and rapidly waned. He lost a powerful friend and protector by the death of Queen Caroline, whose intercessions with the king were ever listened to with respectful consideration.
"Can't place him like this," muttered Yorke, after prolonged scrutiny, "but I seem to know the horse." Suddenly he uttered a sharp exclamation something between a groan and a cry. Redmond, startled at a new horror apparent on the other's ghastly face, clutched him by the arm. "What's up?" he queried tensely. Yorke struggled to speak.
In consideration whereof he was highlie commended by the pope. At length archbishop William was conuicted and deposed, Albert bishop of Hostia pronouncing sentence in this wise: "We doo decrée by the apostolike authoritie, that William archbishop of Yorke is to be deposed from his sée, bicause Stephan king of England, before any canonicall election, named him."
We had noticed a huge banyan tree not far distant from our sleeping place, which was the roosting and breeding place of a vast number of whale birds, so Yorke proposed that we should go there and see if we could kill some by hurling sticks at them.
"H-mm!" ejaculated Yorke, "seems to me I've got a hazy recollection of meeting up with that fellow before somewhere. In a hotel in High River, I think it was. Beggar was yarning about Cuba, I remember." "Bet it was hazy all right," was Redmond's sarcastic rejoiner, "like most of your bar-room recollections, Yorkey." He gave vent to a snorting chuckle.

Jenkins looked up deprecatingly, as if he would apologize for the rudeness of Roland Yorke. "Mr. Galloway is out, sir. I dare say he will not be away more than half an hour." "I cannot wait now," said Mr. Huntley. "So you are one less in this office than you were when I left?" "The awfullest shame!" struck in Roland. "Have you heard that Galloway lost a bank-note out of a letter, sir?" "Yes.
He aired all of his knowledge, and made such a favorable impression on the good lady that she became very friendly with him. He did not know that Mrs. Yorke's kindness to him was condescension, and her cordiality inspired as much by curiosity as courtesy. "Dr. Balsam has been telling us about you, Mr. Keith," said Mrs. Yorke, with a bow which brought a pleased smile to the young man's face.
Her eyes were sparkling, and her lips parted with a smile of pleased surprise. "How do you do?" She came forward with outstretched arm and a cordial greeting. Mrs. Yorke could not repress a mother's pride at seeing the impression that her daughter's appearance had made. The expression on Keith's face, however, decided her that she would hazard no more such meetings.
This opportunity came in the shape of a college commencement with a consequent boat-race, and all the gayeties that this entailed. Mrs. Yorke was, in her way, devoted to her daughter, and had a definite and what she deemed an exalted ambition for her.
