Considering that, she does not use them, you should learn to respect her. Lady Wathin bowed stiffly. She refused to partake of lunch, having, she said, satisfied her conscience by the performance of a duty and arranged with her flyman to catch a train.

"That's true, Monsieur le Juge d'Instruction, but his is just like it." The deputy sniggered: "Very funny! Most amusing! There are two caps One, the real one, which constituted our only piece of evidence, has gone off on the head of the sham flyman! The other, the false one, is in your hands. Oh, the fellow has had us nicely!" "Catch him! Fetch him back!" cried M. Filleul.

"I 'll walk the rest of the way," he said to the flyman, giving him his fare.
She is as considerate for the flyman waiting for her on a rainy night as she would be for her father's coachman and horses, remembering that the flyman is quite as liable to catch cold as the coachman, and has fewer facilities for curing himself.
