Coombe, in his cold perfunctory way, climbing the crooked, narrow stairs, dismissing Andrews looking over the rooms dismissing them, so to speak, and then remaining after the rest had gone to reveal to her a new abnormal mood that, in itself alone, was actually horrible. It was abnormal and yet he had always been more or less like that in all things.

They were all met to the preaching upon a certain day, the date of which is not given, but which was presumably in the summer of 1547, Knox having arrived with his pupils in St. Andrews in the Easter of that year.

Henslowe was sleeping, wrapped in another rug, on the couch beside him. Except for Henslowe's breathing, there was complete silence. Floods of silvery-grey light poured in through the wide windows, behind which Andrews could see a sky full of bright dove-colored clouds. He sat up carefully.

Never were sensations more truly tragical than mine: yet, as is frequent, they had a dash of the ridiculous; which resulted from the machinations of my good friends, Hector and Andrews.

At last they heard the rear door of the car slam. The conductor had not stopped to ask questions, regardless of what he suspected. "Big Shanty! Big Shanty! Twenty minutes for breakfast." It was like a bugle call to Andrews' men.

As a youth he was clerk to his brother, a corn-merchant, but devoted his leisure to the study of languages, and the literature of various countries. In 1813 he became parish schoolmaster of Lasswade, near Edinburgh, thereafter classical master at Dollar Academy, and in 1835 Prof. of Oriental Languages at St. Andrews. In 1812 he pub.

"Boys," he said, "when I heard that switch-tender refuse to put us on the main track I thought our hour had come. But the coolness and the presence of mind of our friend Andrews have saved the day.
