"Then you had better take lessons from him, Ferdy," said Stirling. "He drives well. He's a veteran." When Keith reached his room he lit a cigar and flung himself into a chair. Somehow, the evening had not left a pleasant impression on his mind. Was this the Alice Yorke he had worshipped, revered? Was this the woman whom he had canonized throughout these years?
Ketch's legs were on the point of taking a dance of ecstasy. A minute or two, and the group formed the centre of the upper part of the room. Yorke supported the great boy whose back was bared, while the daunted faces and eager eyes were strained eagerly from around.
Sir W. Batten is gone down this day thither, and the Duchesse of Yorke went down yesterday to meet the Duke. 18th. Up, and with Sir J. Minnes to the Duke of Albemarle, where we did much business, and I with good content to myself; among other things we did examine Nixon and Stanesby, about their late running from two Dutchmen;
"I suppose I can depend upon you to take the duty at College this morning?" Mr. Williams said to Arthur, as he was leaving them. "Yes, I shall be out in time for the examination at the Guildhall. The hour fixed is half-past eleven." "Old villains the magistrates must have been, to remand it at all!" was the concluding comment of Mr. Roland Yorke.
"There is no mine here belonging to him then, eh?" "Well, no, Sir; not, properly speaking, a mine, there ain't;" and the well-practiced hand of the landlord shook as he put down the glass, so that it clanked against the bottle.

What mischief-making wind has been arising between you and William Yorke?" The expression of Constance's face changed to sadness, and her cheeks grew crimson. "My dear, you will not misunderstand me," he resumed.
Young Yorke, however, accepted this life and its hardships with all cheerfulness; and the spirit with which he entered the service and the interest he took in his profession from the first are, I think, abundantly clear from a letter he wrote home to his father on July 15, 1815 from the Mediterranean, off Celebrina, after he had been a little more than a month at sea.
