"Why, my friend," said Braithwaite, "how can I show you a man who has left my house, and whom in the chances of this life, I am not very likely to see again, though hospitably desirous of so doing?"
There were tales of private murder, out of which a hundred legends have come down to these days, as I have myself found, though most of them in so strange a shape that I should hardly know them, had I not myself a clue." "I have heard some of these legends," said Lord Braithwaite.
If the Army Corps are not sent at once, there can be no early decision. Braithwaite, De Robeck and Keyes agree to and but the cabled answer will not be so simple and, in spite of K.'s sudden impatience, I must sleep over it first. Written whilst Williams waits: "No. From General Sir Ian Hamilton to Earl Kitchener. Secret. To-morrow, 4th June, I am fighting a general action.
Not a word about the Gurkhas. Arrived at 10 p.m., and was met by Maxwell. 27th March, 1915 Cairo. Working hard at Headquarters all day till 6.15 p.m., when I made my salaam to the Sultan at the Abdin Palace. A real Generals' dinner what we used to call a burra khana at Maxwell's hospitable board: General Birdwood, General Godley, General Bridges, General Douglas, General Braithwaite, Myself.
Your engagement with Miss Beddow is already broken." Braithwaite jerked his chair back and stared. Then the audacity of such an assertion touched his sense of humor. He fell to laughing. "That at least is an invention." Tabs showed no resentment. There was something disturbingly convincing about his self-possession.
There was no forcing of these by any coup de main especially with worn out troops and guns which had to husband their shell, and so we had to fall back on our starting point. We have made several hundreds prisoners, and have killed a multitude of the enemy. I took Braithwaite and others of the G.S. with me and went ashore.
Harrington the late Mrs. Harrington, I should say " Phyllis stopped listening at this point. Who was the present Mrs. Harrington? she wondered before she thought and then remembered. Why she was! So there was no Phyllis Braithwaite any more!
The Crown Prince was very informal with the people he liked. "Good gracious!" exclaimed the Princess Hedwig, coloring. "And what do you say?" Miss Braithwaite having left the room, Prince Ferdinand William Otto took another lump of sugar. "Say? Oh, not much, you know. He asks how you are, and I tell him you are well, and that you ate thirteen pieces of bread at tea, or whatever it may have been.
Brunel appeared as engineer of the line projected between London and Bristol; and Mr. Braithwaite, the builder of the “Novelty” engine, acted in the same capacity for a railway from London to Colchester. The first lines constructed subsequent to the opening of the Liverpool and Manchester Railway, were mostly in connection with it, and principally in the county of Lancaster.
If one could only wander around the corridor or buy a sandwich from the stand at the foot of the great staircase or, better still, if one could only get to the street, alone, and purchase one of the fig women that Miss Braithwaite so despised! The Crown Prince felt in his pocket, where his week's allowance of pocket-money lay comfortably untouched.
