Her mortification was increased by discovering Sally Norton in a box below with Ted Leffingwell and some gay folk. Sally's roaming eyes also discovered Milly and her young man before the act was finished; she signalled markedly and communicated the news to her party, who all looked at the glum pair, laughed and smiled among themselves. Milly's burning ears could hear Sally's jeers.
So far as Randolph Leffingwell was concerned, photography had not been invented for nothing. Other records of him remained which Honora had likewise seen: one end of a rose-covered villa which Honora thought was a wing of his palace; a coach and four he was driving, and which had chanced to belong to an Englishman, although the photograph gave no evidence of this ownership.
Spence made a remark sotto voce which should, in the ordinary course of events, have remained a secret. "Susan," he said, "your friend Miss Leffingwell is a fascinator. She's got Robert's scalp, too, and he thought it a pretty good joke because I offered to teach her to play golf this afternoon." It appeared that Susan's eyes could flash indignantly. Perhaps she resented Mr.
The author must acknowledge that the only good anecdote in the book and the only verse worth printing are stolen. The story on page concerning Mr. Garrick and the Archbishop of York may be found in Fitzgerald's life of the actor, much better told. Elihu Riley's excellent "History of Annapolis." By Winston Churchill Honora Leffingwell is the original name of our heroine.
Pearson had just made a "kill," as he called it a coup executed quite without the aid of his father, and he was too full of his success to keep still; he was more typical than ever. The Professor had looked at him in staring wonder. So had Amy Leffingwell in the absence of another target for her large, intent eyes. But Medora Phillips knew all about George and Roddy.
Merely to take up the pen was to pass magically through marble portals into the great world itself. The Sir Charles Grandison of this novel was, needless to say, not Peter Erwin. He was none other than Mr. Randolph Leffingwell, under a very thin disguise. Two more years have gone by, limping in the summer and flying in the winter, two more years of conquests.
Brice, "Blessed are the ugly, for they shall not be tempted." "They say that poor Tom Leffingwell has not yet finished paying his debts," continued Mrs. Dwyer, "although his uncle, Eleanor Hanbury's father, cancelled what Randolph had had from him in his will. It was twenty-five thousand dollars. James Hanbury, you remember, had him appointed consul at Nice.
"But how can I ?" he began. "Yes, I know," she returned generously. "But after the first of May Well, he is a young man of decisiveness and believes in quick action." She made a whiff, accompanied by an outward and forward motion of the hands. She was wafting Amy Leffingwell out of her own house into the new home which George Pearson was preparing for her.

If he had owned it, he could not have been treated by the customers with more respect. The city, save for a few notable exceptions, like Mr. Isham, called him Mr. Leffingwell, but behind his back often spoke of him as Tom. On the particular hot morning in question, as he stood in his seersucker coat reading the unquestionably pompous letter of Mr.
Honora blushed, whether from victory or embarrassment, or both, it is impossible to say. "I'm afraid it's just the other way, Mrs. Holt," she replied; "Mr. Holt has captivated me." "We'll call it mutual, Miss Leffingwell," declared Joshua, which was for him the height of gallantry. "I only hope he hasn't bored you," said the good-natured Mrs. Joshua. "Oh, dear, no," exclaimed Honora.
