Excerpt from The Old Royal Palace of Whitehall The old Palace of Whitehall has great claims to public interest, both by reason of its antiquity and of its historical associations, to say nothing of its intimate connection with the lives of the Tudor and Stuart Sovereigns, and the dramatic events of which it was the scene. The Palace has almost entirely passed away, and only the Banqueting House remains to remind us of its former glory. Its story may therefore be said to have come to an end.

Excerpt from Whitehall, or the Days of Charles I, Vol. 2 The supper was served, and with a splendid ele gance of which Ingulph had seen few examples, even in the Court. It was an Italian fashion, which had as yet made few converts among the northern nations, that of nocturnal repast but which after wards reached its height of glory under Louis Quatorze. The conversation was animated, though partaking somewhat too deeply of the license of the times; and Ingulph, kindled by the smiles of a beautiful woman, and the wit of the choice Spirits about him, blazed up with a splendour of imagination which surprised and delighted even them. He was treated with the most marked attention; but it was not until the cloth was removed, and the lackeys gone, that he began to perceive a drift in this distinction.

Excerpt from Whitehall, or the Days of Charles the First, Vol. 1: An Historical Romance More accurate attention, nevertheless, discovered signs of a less peaceful nature. Sentinels paraded the lofty walls, which, in the seventeenth century, made Oxford a place of strength. Cannon pointed with their black mouths at every point of vantage; a standard floated on the summit of the castle, which dominated the town; and banderols, streaming at various distances, marked the position of numerous out posts.

Excerpt from The Old Indispensables: A Romance of Whitehall But the needs Of the Circumvention Branch were growing acute. It had been little more than a matter for jesting when four boy clerks were sent to join a room which had previously been thought overcrowded by two Second Division clerks and their five temporaryassistants. It caused no inconvenience at all when all the occupants Of this room, now swelled to a total number of twenty-three, were driven into the corridor to make room for four hopeless failures Of superior rank whom the Derogation Of Crown Appanages Office had cheerfully lent to assist the Circumvention Branch in its labours. It is true that some remark was occasioned When a Higher Division clerk (albeit a Very little one, like the souls Of the penguins) was also turned out Of his room. But they put him at a corner, a distinguished though draughty position, arranged a screen round him and gave him a shorthand typist who could not spell and Of whom he was desperately afraid Thus the claims Of caste were satisfied. The crisis came at last quite suddenly. His Majesty's Secretary of State for Circumlocutory Affairs felt himself growing a little stale and departed from his rule Of ceasing work only to sleep and waking only to resume his labours. The first battle Of Ypres had been brought to a successful conclusion, and he felt that he Owed himself a little relaxation. Besides, he had been outwitted the day before by a contractor, and the day before that by a colleague. He attributed these misfortunes to the result Of overwork. SO when he was walking from his Office to the House and met On the way a polished female friend who invited him to dinner for that night, he felt that for once at least in this way he could best serve the State. The con sequences Oi his overwork must indeed have been serious for him to have missed a certain gleam Of pur pose in the lady's eye.
