I am not going to worry the way Shadrach does about your getting here safe and sound. The Lord's been mighty good to us and I am sure He will fetch you to our door all right. I am contented to trust you in His hands. P.S. One or both of us will meet you at the depot. Captain Shad's epistle was more worldly but not more coherent.

There he had fallen in love, being clean and of pure mind, and disposed to think everybody like himself, and married in haste a girl whom his tiresome proprieties had wearied at once, and who did not in the most rudimentary way comprehend what to him was the foundation of life. He shuddered, but could give no coherent account of that time.

All these books introduce us to circles of friends who discuss questions of philosophy, religion, art, or the problems of social life, each character representing some prevalent view, and their arguments being so arranged as to have, when taken together, some general and coherent meaning.

Behold, the very first coherent thing these two men did was, while they still panted and glared upon one another, to unite in a mutual threat. "And look out you don't go telling father or mother," panted Harold to the girls. "Yes, mind you jolly well don't," panted Robert. Anna said she certainly would. Both the extraordinary creatures unitedly rounded on Anna.

From my conversation and correspondence with Dr. White, it is clear that as an alienist he did not make the slightest allegation to warrant removing Miss Paul to the psychopathic ward. He praised the "most admirable, coherent, logical and forceful way" in which she discussed with him the purpose of our campaign.

People quoted Lady Bulwer and Lady Byron; and yet right in the city were women of literary proclivities living happily with their husbands. And Joe had found careless, fretful, indifferent wives and poor housekeepers among women who could not even have written a coherent account-book. Come to think, he liked Delia a good deal himself.

There are mounting pressures by some members to devalue the common currency. Others sternly resist it. Many of the prospective members of this union fancy the CFA franc even less than the EU fancies their capricious and graft-ridden economies. But an ECOWAS monetary union could constitute a serious and more economically coherent alternative to the CFA franc zone.

It may be said, of course, that enjoyment, question-begging term at best, isn't in these austere connections designated but rather some principle of appreciation that can at least give a coherent account of itself.

"Take him away!" he shrieked. "Oh, my God!" Beatrice, more coherent than any of them, scoffed at him. "Don't be a fool!" she cried. "Take him away, indeed! He's the most wonderful thing that ever happened. He's the one man in life you want to see! So you've come for him, eh?" she went on, turning almost like a wild-cat on Dane. "You beast! You chose to-night, did you?

The next day, a Saturday, this finished little piece of talk was the starting-point of a vast amount of less coherent speech in a drawing-room within sight of Kensington's verdure. Here Mrs. Ashley Birks did her friends the honour of receiving them; a lady well regarded in certain discriminating circles. A widow formerly, she had now been two years married to a barrister new in silk.
