And then wasn't an immediate exposure of everything just what the public wanted?
Mr.
Pinhorn effectually called me to order by reminding me of the promptness with which I had met Miss Braby at Liverpool on her return from her fiasco in the States.

Hadn't we published, while its freshness and flavour were unimpaired, Miss Braby's own version of that great international episode?
I felt somewhat uneasy at this lumping of the actress and the author, and I confess that after having enlisted Mr.
Pinhorn's sympathies I procrastinated a little.

I had succeeded better than I wished, and I had, as it happened, work nearer at hand.

A few days later I called on Lord Crouchley and carried off in triumph the most unintelligible statement that had yet appeared of his lordship's reasons for his change of front.

I thus set in motion in the daily papers columns of virtuous verbiage.
