The horse he once dreaded has become his dearest friend; and he can manage him with a skill scarcely equalled by his pale-faced adversary. The lance and fire-weapon are in his hands; the spirit-thunder no longer appals him: he knows its origin and nature, and uses it in the accomplishment of a terrible retaliation!
We all loved the child, and she was her mother's dearest treasure. Susan was a widow, and this was her only child. A pretty little creature she was, with yellow curls and dark-blue eyes, rosy and plump and sturdy. But a sudden, sharp attack of croup seized the child, and in a few hours she fell asleep. I need not tell you of the mother's grief. She could not be comforted because her child was not.
I was very, very sad to part with all of my friends in Boston, but I was so eager to see my baby sister I could hardly wait for the train to take me home. But I tried very hard to be patient for teacher's sake. Mildred has grown much taller and stronger than she was when I went to Boston, and she is the sweetest and dearest little child in the world.
We will leave this to-morrow morning at nine o'clock." I was rather staggered by this sudden announcement; for, though it had always been the dearest wish of my heart to go to sea, yet there was something so unexpected in the accomplishment of it, that I repented of my choice.
Will you not say you forgive me, Dolores?" I said, offering my hand. She took it, but continued silent. "Say, dearest friend, that you forgive me, that we part friends."

The first item in that column brought a delighted smile to his face: "The one who calls me Dearest is not genuine or they would write to me." Any one at all familiar with English journalism will recognize at once what department it was that appealed most to West. During his three weeks in London he had been following, with the keenest joy, the daily grist of Personal Notices in the Mail.
"Certainly," Leonard answered; and rising he went to the baggage, whence he returned presently with a lantern and the prayer-book. Juanna placed the lantern beside her and opened the book. The first thing that she saw was a name on the fly-leaf, "Jane Beach," and beneath it this inscription, which evidently had been written by some one in a great hurry: "To dearest Leonard from Jane. 23 Jan."
Why hast Thou forsaken Me? And the Cross was the complete carrying out of God's dearest purpose for the world, that He might be 'just, and the justifier of him that believeth in Jesus. Therefore, then I was going to say as never before was Christ His Son, in whom He delighted. Brethren, let us, led by the errors of these scoffers, grasp the truths that they pervert.
Dearest Eudocia, will you accept the devotion of my heart and life?" He took her hand; it trembled in his grasp, but was not withdrawn. She struggled for composure a moment, and then, resting her head upon his shoulder, wept for joy. The nuptials of Michael and Eudocia were soon celebrated.
