Herman, and others, have already been related in the former volumes, and need not be repeated here. With regard to the churches dedicated to the Virgin, I shall not attempt to enumerate even the most remarkable, as almost every town in Christian Europe contains one or more bearing her name.
This is now a hundred years old, and though it was thought a great affair in its day, it is not half good enough for Mary Wallace. My dear fellow, how I; envy you that invitation to breakfast this morning! what a favourite you must be with Herman Mordaunt!"
I had remarked in my last visit to the place, that, standing before Herman Mordaunt's door, something like a dozen log cabins were to be seen at a time in different parts of the settlement, and that this number might have been increased to twenty, by varying the observer's position.
"But," Maurice hurried on, more impulsively yet, "you can never have felt that you were a renegade and a hypocrite. That's where I am now." The sculptor regarded him with evident surprise, yet with a look so keen that Maurice felt his cheeks grow warm. "Does that mean," Herman asked with kindly deliberation, "that you are tired and out of sorts, or is it something deeper?"
Since the exhibition of Herman Swank's South Sea Studies in the Graham Galleries, New York City, it is hardly necessary to introduce by name the illustrious artist who has justly earned the title of "Premier Painter of Polynesia."

I believe I know you. You are Rachael Reubenstein, the daughter of Herman Reubenstein, who used to have the old-clothes store at Ninth and Market. You and I used to play dolls together.

We soon found ourselves on pretty much our former terms of sociability and confidence. . . . . He is thus far on his way to Constantinople.
Penrod paused abruptly, seeing something before himself the august and awful presence which filled the entryway. Before HERSELF, Mrs. Roderick Magsworth Bitts saw her son her scion wearing a moustache and sideburns of blue, and perched upon a box flanked by Sherman and Verman, the Michigan rats, the Indian dog Duke, Herman, and the dog part alligator. Roddy, also, saw something before himself.
How do you find yourself?" His hearty humorous greeting seemed to do the sick man good. Herman approached the bed. "Know where you are?" Wallace slowly put out a hand, and Herman took it. "You're coming on all right. Want some breakfast? Make it bucks?" he said, in Chicago restaurant slang. "White wings sunny one up coff."
