All in the middle of the road at a stand-still chaise and pony and all, and Daisy herself in particular. I found it was an interrupted expedition, and invited Daisy to take a ride with me; which she did, and I got at the rationale of the affair. And I come now to make the request, as her physician, not as her friend, that her expeditions may be as little interfered with as possible.

That young fellow, who has not had the decency to put off his boots and buckskins, might have stood as forward as most of them in the graces of the old lady, who loved to look upon a comely young man; but it is thought he has forfeited the moment of fortune by sometimes neglecting her tea-table when solemnly invited, sometimes appearing there when he had been dining with blyther company, twice treading upon her cat's tail, and once affronting her parrot.

She did not wish to see her frequently, or to know her intimately. She wished she had neither called, nor invited them. She wished she had followed her first impulse, which had been to refuse at once without referring to her brothers. Now, however, she must go with a good grace.

THAT same morning, as was the case nearly every day, some intimates were expected to /dejeuner/ at the Duvillards', a few friends who more or less invited themselves.

The three alighted in the station of Battipaglia in order to take the train for Paestum. It was a rather long wait, and the sailor invited them to go into the restaurant, a little wooden shanty impregnated with the double odor of resin and wine.

It happened that the king's son gave a ball, to which he invited all the nobility; and, as our two young ladies made a great figure in the world, they were included in the list of invitations. So they began to be very busy choosing what head-dress and which gown would be the most becoming.

You're invited and you're coming. I've already obtained leave from General Jackson for you both. I wish the general himself would come, but he's just received a theological book that Dr. Graham at Winchester has sent him, and he's bound to spend most of the night on that. Put on your best uniforms and be there just after dark."

"It 's very kind of you both," said Checkers, "and I appreciate it more than I can tell you." Early the next morning the two boys went to Little Rock. Arthur invited four of the most desirable of his acquaintances to dinner that evening, and luckily they all accepted. Most of Checkers' day was taken up in fulfilling missions for Pert and her mother.

Susan and me are going to take our breakfast in the sitting-room with Mrs. Jocelyn and her family." "Am I not invited?" he asked a little anxiously. "There's no need of any invitation. You have as much right there as I have, only I would not come in looking like that." "They won't like it this new arrangement." "It seems to me that you have grown very considerate of what they like," put in Susan.

Besides this, it may be added, although it really is nobody's business, that a Nice Girl and her parents lived in this particular part of the South of France. One day Robbins took a little excursion in a carriage to Toulon. He had invited the Nice Girl to go with him, but on that particular day she could not go.
