Davidge to follow closely what I'm going to tell you," he continued. "I got out of the cab at the station in the High Street, dismissed it, walked a little way along the street, and then crossed over and made for the Herapath Flats for the estate office entrance. I think you are all very well acquainted with that entrance.

All these people like their own way best, and why should they leave it for the choice of another? Religion is one of the things in which mankind were made to differ." The several congregations now began to be dismissed, and the street was again overspread with persons of all the different sects, going promiscuously to their respective homes.

But with an effort he dismissed it. He did not intend to drink beyond the bounds of moderation, and why should he permit his mind to be disturbed by idle fears? "It is time that brother was here," Alice said to Helen Weston, as the two maidens sat alone, near a window in Helen's chamber, the evening twilight falling gently and with a soothing influence. "Yes.

The festival of this morning will afford an opportunity after mass. Have you thought of this? I do not say that I am advising it, or sanctioning any part of your plan, but have you thought of this?" "I have, and dismissed the thought. The proclamation will speak for itself. I act from no information which is not open to them all.

That was all the information that Hill could give me. I had been in Jackson's corps since the battles round Richmond, and had been very derelict in not paying my respects to my old professor.

It was half-past four.

She repeated the falsehood, with new circumstances and details, after which she was dismissed by the judge. "Mary, you are convicted," said he. "All the circumstances are against you. The chamber-maid of the young Countess saw the ring in your hand. Tell me now, what you have done with it?" In vain Mary protested her innocence.

There had been much speculation in Montreal as to who should be the new high commissioner for Canada in London. Sir Donald A. Smith, who had been appointed in the last weeks of Conservative rule, would be, it was assumed, dismissed. Tarte scouted the idea that Smith would be disturbed. Laurier was not that kind of a man. He would not dismiss Smith; he would make friends with him.

Her lawyer dismissed after a stormy interview, the desolate old woman was fain to sit down to the meal which she had hoped to share with her nephew.

"Humph!" said the lieutenant; "perhaps of what I was thinking about." And he went into the king's apartment. As soon as the king saw the officer enter, he dismissed his valet de chambre and his gentleman. "Who is on duty to-morrow, monsieur?" asked he. The lieutenant bowed his head with military politeness, and replied, "I am, sire." "What! still you?" "Always I, sire."
