Mr Allport was tall and broad, and thin as a door; he had also a remarkably small chin. He was naive, inclined to suffer in the first pangs of disillusionment; nevertheless, he was waywardly humorous, sometimes wistful, sometimes petulant, always gallant. Therefore Vera liked him, whilst Beatrice mothered him. Mr Holiday was short, very stout, very ruddy, with black hair.
For an instant his heavy countenance flared into brightness. Dick Allport sighed almost imperceptibly as he turned to me. I had a feeling that such a fire as the Burtons kindled for each other should have sprung up in the moment between Dick and me, for we had fought and labored and struggled for our love as Standish and Leila had never needed to battle.
Commander Allport, who still had not discovered that Murray was his superior, was at first inclined to pay no attention to the signal; till his first lieutenant, happening to know the true state of the case, brought him a Navy List, and pointed out to him Murray's date of promotion.
The Ephemerides, Meibomius, and Rhodius mention instances. The case of Meibomius was that of an infant, and the case mentioned by Rhodius was associated with hemorrhages from the lungs, umbilicus, thigh, and tooth-cavity. Allport reports the history of a case in which there was recession of the gingival margins and alveolar processes, the consequence of amenorrhea.

MacNair has been so good as to bear with me making a fool of myself. 'In what way? asked Vera sharply. 'Mr. Allport is so despondent. I think he must be in love, said Beatrice playfully. 'Unfortunately, I am not or at least I am not yet aware of it, said Mr. Allport, bowing slightly to Vera. She advanced and stood in the bay of the window, her skirt touching the young man's knees.
'Yes, they do rather, he replied sadly, tentatively waiting. 'My husband began Beatrice. The young man waited. 'My husband was one of your sort: he ran after trouble, and when he'd found it he couldn't carry it off and left it to me. Mr. Allport looked at her very sympathetically. 'You don't mean it! he exclaimed softly. 'Surely he didn't ? Beatrice nodded, and turned aside her face.
In her he seemed to be discovering, all over again, the vestal to tend the fires of his faith. Dick Allport, too, bending forward over the table on which his hands fell clenched, was studying Leila with an inscrutable stare that seemed to be of query.
Without envy since my own way had its compensations in full measure I admitted it. "I think that you must have forgotten, if you ever knew," she said, "how I struggled here in London for the little recognition I have won." "Oh, that!" Dick Allport deprecated. "That isn't what Stan means. Every one in the world worth talking about goes through that sort of struggle.
One of the first of the railways made under the 1889 Act was a short line of 8 miles from the County Down line at Downpatrick to the little fishing village of Ardglass. It stood first on the list of lines recommended for construction in the Report of the Allport Commission.
