Mr. Carey looked up over his spectacles. (40)
He was holding The Blackstable Times in front of the fire. (40)

Philip looked at his uncle for an answer. (40)
"You're very quiet this morning, Philip," said Aunt Louisa presently. (41)
"He's thinking of the good breakfast he'll have at school to-morrow," said the Vicar. (41)
"I suppose no one ever has faith enough," he said. (42)
