Having perusedits contents, Roger nodded. Roger
slowly raised his umbrella, as if taking a lunar of the youngmans
capacity.
Noting that it hadbut one entrance, he went on
patrol. Ifhe HAD only driven a pair, it had been the finest in the
kingdom!
As a neighbouring clock struck eleven a hansom cab
drew up andSmith alighted. To think that a fourpenny foreigner had cost him
fivehundred odd pounds! Well, that young lady had had anexpensive ride, an expensive
laugh. And someone perhaps would mutter as he passed: Theregoes old Forsyte. Roger
produced The Times, and faltered out:What are you going to do, Roger?
On reaching the chair there was an ominous
moment.
Hes a foreigner,and might get imposed
on.
Was he conscious ofthe full sting in his nieces
laughter?
As Edward approached the finish of hismomentous
invention, she approached her Waterloo. Was he conscious ofthe full sting in his
nieces laughter? When the butler had removed his smile Roger stood at the
windowlooking at the day.
If you ever tell her, said Roger, Ill cut you off
with ashilling. When the butler had removed his smile Roger stood at the
windowlooking at the day.
Dont get up, please, and thank you ever so for the
tea. No one came in here now who hadknown him in the palmy days of
style!
Roger, if it werent for your father, Ishouldnt
think nearly as much about food as I have to.
After all, he had otherpossibilities, and the
evening need not be entirely wasted. Beyond the words: The girls mad, Roger, to the
infinite reliefof Mrs. With her stories she makes fifty ifshes lucky.
Having perusedits contents, Roger
nodded.
But as he moved, she roseand came towards
him.
The years had contractedhis girth and increased
that of his brother, now an Alderman.
Well, young man, I take it youre ambitious. So she
rode one of those things, andlaughed at him, did she? Boy, fetch my valet and tell
the hall porter to come here.
The lever which at the moment was engaging his
attention, dropped. The broad and cheerful butler stood within the
doorway.
But being of a loyal and unassumingnature he was
not conscious of the discrepancy.
She listened in a turmoil of admiration and
dismay.
The incident raised soacutely the whole question of
his brother in relation to hispossibilities.
Tweetyman, andrealised that it had been finished
and had passed into the keepingof his brother.
