Edward was a little surprised as well as pleased at this condescension on her part towards a forester. "You do me much honour, Mistress Patience," said he, bowing. "I cannot forget that I owe my life to you, Master Armitage," replied Patience, "and I cannot be too grateful. May I request another favour of you?" "Certainly, if it is in my power to do as you wish."

"Tom, I am really amazed that you, a woodsman and a professional forester, should require the services of a guide," teased Anne. "I don't. The guide is for you folks. Of course I know how to keep from getting lost, but I shall not be with you all the time, so " "Come, let's get busy," urged Hippy. "Nora, if you will kindly hold Hindenburg, Tom and I will unload the ponies. Ready, Thomas?"

Old Forester knew a thing or two, and when he was out here consolidating tunnels, he found out that Jack Tenbrook was about headed for the big lead, and brought him out and introduced him to Amy. You see, Jack, clear grit as he was, was mighty rough style, and about as simple as they make 'em, and they had to get up something to account for that girl's taking a shine to him.

Whilst Henry Campbell and Forester were consulting with the watchmaker upon the internal state of the bruised watch, Archibald Mackenzie, who followed them for a lounge, was looking over some new watches, and ardently wished for the finest that he saw. As he was playing with this fine watch, the watchmaker begged that he would take care not to break it.

Danford was forester to the Duke of Devonshire, and lived at Chatsworth. "There was naught in the letter save that he was a good servant and an honest man. That is all we can ask of any man." "But who is he?" again demanded Sir George. "Your worship may perhaps learn from Danford more than I can tell you," replied the forester, adroitly avoiding a lie.

Forester had known very well how to reply to these statements, but she thought it would be a very good thing to show the Smylies that their spiteful, unkind words had no weight with her. Mrs. Smylie's ambition knew no bounds as far as her daughter was concerned.

Charley then told the forester how he had used a tree for an aerial. "It was my last chance," he said. "If it hadn't worked, the forest would have burned. I had read about the use of trees to receive by, and I thought I had read that messages had been sent through trees, but I wasn't sure. It was my only chance and I took it." "You're a wonder, Charley.

There was but one room in this log house, and, at first, Marco did not know where he and Forester were to sleep. There was a great blazing fire in the fire-place, which was made of rough stones. The hearth was made of great flat stones.

He had had to fight against many obstacles, but the manliness and independence within him had asserted themselves for all time. Even in appearance he was changed for the better, and the head forester was right when he said that Will was a man at last. Dr.

Why I know not, I feel a regard for that man, and a confidence in him. And why should I not? He knows my principles, my feelings against his party, and he respects them. Surely he cannot wish to gain me over to his party; that were indeed ridiculous a young forester a youth unknown. No, he would gain nothing by that, for I am nobody. It must be from good-will, and no other feeling.
