One of these was becoming impatient . Colonel Faversham had reached the end of his tether . He realized that his authority over Bridget would not bear a great strain , and accordingly on Wednesday morning he made his way to Donaldson 's , where he purchased a handsome and expensive jewelled waist-belt , such as she had admired on an actress when he took her to the play a few evenings ago . Armed with this peace-offering , Colonel Faversham reached Golfney Place at eleven o'clock on the morning after Mark Driver 's unfortunate visit . `` Oh dear ! '' cried Bridget , as she clasped the belt round her waist , `` how kind you always are to me ! '' `` I do n't see why you should sigh about that , '' answered Colonel Faversham .
