- CORDIAL RELATIONS

- I bowed. I would have denied it if I could.
- I did not know what to do, so I bowed again.
- I dropped the embroidery, and put my foot on my hat.
- I bowed.
- I raised my hand in protest. The Countess took no notice.
- I fell back on a second line of defense.
- I walked on. Mickleham seized me by the coat tails.
- I said something about “Aunt Cynthia.”
- THE PERVERSENESS OF IT
- I could swear she flushed again. Her voice trembled as she answered:
- A MATTER OF DUTY
- I reflected for a moment.
- I took my hat.
- MY LAST CHANCE
- I was still blind. I believe I winked, and I’m sure I whispered, “Tea.”
- I was not to be caught out again.
- I began to be sorry for this man, in spite of his peccadilloes.
- I positively leaped from my seat.
- THE LITTLE WRETCH
- I buttoned my left glove and held out my right hand.
- AN EXPENSIVE PRIVILEGE
- I took my hat.
- I am not yet allowed at Mrs. Hilary Musgrave’s.
- A VERY DULL AFFAIR
- I felt that it was time to interfere.
- I took out my watch. I was not finding much entertainment.
- I turned to Miss Phyllis.
- I hailed a hansom cab.
- STRANGE, BUT TRUE
- I flicked the ash from my cigar.
- I nodded.
- I was very comfortable, so I said timidly:
- Dolly smiled upon him, waved her hand to me, and drove off, crying--
- He paused, and added, with a bashful, knowing smile--
- I turned my head away, but he caught me.
- THE VERY LATEST THING
- I laid down my pen.
- I took the pen and made a certain alteration. Dolly took up the album.
- AN UNCOUNTED HOUR
- I was, very naturally, nettled at this.
- I smiled.
- A REMINISCENCE
- I opened the door, but a thought struck me. I turned round and observed:
- A VERY FINE DAY
- I was about to contest this opinion when a victoria drove by.
- I made no answer, and he went on--
- I looked at Dolly. I had better not have done that.
- THE HOUSE OPPOSITE
- I looked at her in some puzzle.
- A QUICK CHANGE
- Dolly looked at me, then she asked in an insinuating tone--
- He stopped, paralyzed by a cry from Dolly--
- I turned a startled gaze upon Archie.
- I looked at Dolly; her eyes were closed shut, and she gasped--
- A SLIGHT MISTAKE
- I held out a half-sovereign, three half-crowns, and a shilling.
- THE OTHER LADY
- I waved my hand impatiently.
- I merely smiled, and waved my hand again.
- I stood for a moment considering this proposal.
- I walked toward the door.
- WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN
- I took a long sip from my glass, and observed in a meditative tone:
- I began to walk towards the house.
- ONE WAY IN
- I smiled significantly.
