It is bad enough to be so far as this from my father and my mother's remains, but I daresay I'll manage to rest in the same grave as my sister, though Robert Elmsdale lies between. He separated us in life not that she ever cared for him; but it won't matter much when we are all bones and dust together " "If I let you have that five pounds," here broke in Mr.
Here's a man come for those tools now. So you only borrowed them; that's all you're good for. I wouldn't be you for anything." "Don't be a fool," said Grindhusen. He was offended now, but I got him round again, as I had done so many times before, by pretending I had only spoken in jest. "What are we to do now?" he asked. "You'll manage it all right," said I. "Manage it will I?"
It does not seem at all probable to me, therefore, that they can manage so clumsily here, on one of the great lines between England and France, as to get all the trunks of a whole steamer load of passengers upon a cart, and then loiter with it on the way to the station, and let the train go off without it." "Well," said Rollo, "that's a good reason; but you said there were several."
It pleased him just now to think any one was glad to see him, and the spontaneous way in which this boy had come under his wing won him over completely. "We must manage to stick together," he said. "Horace, you know, is working in another part of the office. It's awfully hard lines, for we set our minds on being together. But it can't be helped; and I'm glad, any way, you're here, young 'un."

"No; we must learn, however, on the first opportunity," said I. "It would be very convenient, and very likely useful. If the captain had not known it, we should probably have been caught by the enemy's fleet when we got among them." The puzzle was now to settle how to manage with these prisoners. As we had only seven effectives, and they had more than forty, it was no slight task.
There was no doubt of that, and once in the family he could be molded and managed as the wily McDonald had never been able to mold or manage Guy.
'Your imagination is all right, and New York is neither heaven nor the other place. The fact is, I'm spooking, and I can tell you, Austin, it's just about the finest kind of work there is. If you could manage to shuffle off your mortal coil and get in with a lot of ghosts, the way I have, you'd be playing in great luck.
Do you know our branch sent in less work than any of the others last month, and Mrs. Fitz George said, she did n't see how fifteen young ladies could manage to do so little?" "We don't talk a bit more than the old ladies do. I just wish you could have heard them go on, last time.
Unfortunately we have no boats, or we might fill some of them with combustibles, and tow them down until near enough for the stream to carry them upon those vessels; but even then the chance were small indeed, for the Danes would swarm out in their boats and manage to tow or push them so that they would not touch the ships."
