I shall not ask you to break it. But I shall stay on here. And if," says this artful young man, in a purposely doleful tone, "anything should happen, it will——","Insolence, sir, is perhaps another part of your role," returns she, with cold but excessive anger.,Bob heard a crunching noise behind him and turned his head to find that Ted Hoyt too had been unable to stand the strain of waiting uncertain as to what was happening to his friends.，"I have not set eyes on it since that night you showed it to me," declared Etwald, coolly.

Betty eyed ruefully the silk shawl she had flung on the ground.,"Then I can only say I pity you," says Miss Mansergh, leaning back in her chair, with the air of one who would say, "Argument here is in vain.",“Come, John. Tell me about it from the beginning.”,"Yes, yes," spoke Mr. Johnston, impatiently. "No doubt I shall get to know Mr. Ringold very well. Now, sir, concerning your other neighbors?"
