But you'll talk to Mr. Pindar, anyway? Yes, I'll talk with him. TIMOTHY. Good morning, doctor. RENCH. If we'd done right we'd have called the strike a year ago. TIMOTHY. Fine patriots ye are as I'm sure the doctor is after telling you to let the boys that's gone over there be murdered because ye must have your union! HILLMAN. If Mr. Pindar recognizes the union, Timothy, we'll go to work tomorrow.
There was a meeting last night, I understand, with Rench and Hillman and a delegate come from Newcastle making speeches, the only way they'd get their rights would be for you to recognize the union. ASHER. I'll never recognize a union! I won't have any outsiders, meddlers and crooks dictating my business to me. TIMOTHY. I've been with you thirty years, come December, Mr.
Who is the one-eyed and luckless son of shame that has not yet prepared my pipe? It was hastily thrust in by a hillman, and a trickle of thick smoke from each corner of the curtains showed that peace was restored.
A news item of 1849 reported that an outbreak of cholera at the Hillman Iron Works near Clarksville, Tenn., had brought the death of four or five slaves and the removal of the remainder from the vicinity until the epidemic should have passed.
"Thou art to be my servant?" "Aye! So said she. I am her man. I obey!" "When did she say so?" King asked him blandly, asking unexpected questions being half the art of Secret Service, although the other half is harder to achieve. The Hillman stroked his great beard and stood considering the question.
But he saw that the door at the end of an alley by the building was ajar, and through a chink between the shutters of an upper story his keen northern eyes detected lamp-light. That was enough. He set his teeth and drew his long clean knife. Wounds, bruises, pain, all mean nothing to a hillman when there is murder in his eye, unless they be spurs that goad him to greater frenzy and more speed.
Fancy the ghost of a hillman!" Next morning I sent a penitent note to Kitty, imploring her to overlook my strange conduct of the previous afternoon. My Divinity was still very wroth, and a personal apology was necessary. I explained, with a fluency born of night-long pondering over a falsehood, that I had been attacked with sudden palpitation of the heart the result of indigestion.
In cold gray dawn it would have needed a martinet to make a firing squad do execution on Muhammad Anim, even with his hands tied and his back against a wall. A man whose boils had just been lanced was no match for him at all, even in broad daylight. The Hillman slunk away and did as he was told. "What meant thy message?" growled the mullah.
DR. JONATHAN. I can't, but something else can. HILLMAN. What? DR. JONATHAN. Circumstances. No man can swim up stream very long in these days, Hillman. Wait a while, and see. We've voted to put this strike through, and by God, we'll do it. It's fine weather, doctor. He's like the man who said, when Congress declared war, "It's a fine day for it!" It's a fine day for a strike!
The Bride and the Bridegroom came out into the verandah after dinner, in order that the smoke of Georgie Porgie's cheroots might not hang in the new drawing-room curtains. 'What is that noise down there? said the Bride. Both listened. 'Oh, said Georgie Porgie, 'I suppose some brute of a hillman has been beating his wife. 'Beating his wife! How ghastly! said the Bride.
