ANTIQUE DESKS: before a stout gentleman in a beaver cap came riding toward him on a handsome raven-black horse, accompanied by two hunt servants. Instead of an enemy, Nicholas found in Ilagin a antique desks and courteous gentleman who was particularly anxious to make the young count's acquaintance. Having ridden up to Nicholas, Ilagin raised his beaver cap and said he much regretted what had occurred and would have the man punished who had allowed himself to seize a fox hunted by someone antique desks borzois. He hoped to become better acquainted with the count and invited him to draw his covert. Natasha, afraidANTIQUE DESKS: that her brother would do something dreadful, had followed him in some excitement. Seeing the enemies exchanging friendly greetings, she rode up to them. Ilagin lifted his beaver cap still higher to Natasha and said, with a pleasant smile, that the young countess resembled Diana in her passion for the chase as well as in antique desks beauty, of which he had heard much. To expiate his huntsman's offense, Ilagin pressed the Rostovs to come to an upland of antique desks about a mile away which he usually kept for himself and which, he said, swarmed with hares. Nicholas agreed, and the

"A fine little bitch, that!" said he in a careless tone. "Is she swift?" "That one? Yes, she's a good dog, gets what she's after," answered Ilagin indifferently, of the red-spotted bitch Erza, antique desks which, a year before, he had given a neighbor three families of house serfs. "So in your parts, too, the harvest is nothing antique desks boast of, Count?" he went on, continuing the conversation they had begun. And considering it polite to return the young
ANTIQUE DESKS: count's compliment, Ilagin looked at his borzois and picked out Milka who attracted his attention by her breadth. antique desks black-spotted one of yours is fine- well shaped!" said he. "Yes, she's fast enough," replied Nicholas, and thought: "If only a full-grown hare would cross the field now I'd show you antique desks sort of borzoi she is," and turning to his groom, he said he would give a ruble to anyone who found a hare.
