Britt, will explain matters to you after I have retired. He " "Your attorney? What does this mean?" gasped Deppingham, visions of blackmail in mind. "What's up, Britt? I deny every demmed word of it, whatever it is!" "Just a little private affair," murmured Britt, uncomfortably. "Private?" sniffed Miss Pelham, involuntarily rearranging her hat. "I think it has been quite public, Mr. Britt.
I'm going to get off at City Island instead of at Pelham Manor and walk the difference. That's ten cents cheaper." Sadie exclaimed with admiration: "An' you carryin' that heavy grip!" "Aw, that's nothin'," said the man of the family. "Good-by, mother. So long, Sadie."
Pelham," exclaimed the latter, starting from his not very graceful position, "it gives me great pleasure to see you Mr. Warburton, Mr. Pelham Mr. Pelham, Mr. Warburton." My new-made and mysterious acquaintance drew himself up to his full height, and bowed very slightly to my own acknowledgment of the introduction. A low person would have thought him rude. I only supposed him ignorant of the world.

"Do you mean Captain Gordon, McKeon?" asked Pelham, with intense surprise.
In fact, I gathered from his conversation, that Tyrrell had spoken of Gertrude as an unhappy female whom he himself had seduced, and would now be rid of. I thank you, Pelham, for that frown, but keep your indignation till a fitter season for it.
It was therefore in the antechambers, not of George the First and of George the Second, but of Walpole and of Pelham, that the daily crowd of courtiers was to be found.
Pelham go to a masquerade as well as his betters?" My voice and words undeceived my Cerberus, and I was admitted; I hastened to bed, and no sooner had I laid my head on my pillow, than I fell fast asleep. It must be confessed, that I had deserved "tired Nature's sweet restorer."
