That almost settled it for every one knew it was utterly impossible to get up such a huge affair without Mrs. Captain Willoughby at the head. But the very next night Jock McPherson brought up the matter in a session meeting and objected to having the dinner in the schoolroom, as it was not a religious gathering. But Lawyer Ed met and overcame every difficulty.
Somebody sure had something, even 'way back in those days. And if they had anything at all back there, they must know a lot by now. That's why I want to look 'em up." "But suppose they want to kill us off at sight?" objected Dorothy. "They might be able to do it, mightn't they?" "Sure, but they probably wouldn't want to any more than you would step on an ant who asked you to help him move a twig.
It is certain he would have objected to a limitation of the political power of the concerns in which he had got such tremendous interests; it is equally sure that it would have been for him a cruel disappointment had his name not figured as the outstanding signature on the treaty of peace.
Gus most opportunely secured a week's job driving a delivery-wagon, and he instantly invested his wages in the provisioning of the cow quarters. "The feed'll git stale by the time the cow comes," objected Milt. "Mebby it's fer bait to ketch a critter with," offered Bobby. After all, it was the miracle predicted by Mrs. Jenkins that came to pass and delivered the cow.
He closed his eyes languidly, and kept them closed until the men had departed. "Can't you walk, Bill?" inquired the tearful Mrs. Scutts. Her husband shook his head.

It was time to think of retreat, for Hampden was already in pursuit. He had slept at Watlington; but the tidings of the foray in the village hard by roused him from slumber, and he at once despatched a trooper to Essex to bid the Earl send foot and horse and cut off the Prince from Chiselhampton bridge. Essex objected and delayed till Hampden's patience broke down.
He disliked it, and he had always disliked it. When Nellie was at work, either as a mother or as the owner of certain fine silver ornaments, he rather enjoyed the wonderful white apron, for it suited her temperament; but as the head of a household with six thousand pounds a year at its disposal, he objected to any hint of the thing at meals. And to-night he objected to it altogether.

In a very short time her discreet behavior and good works were the common subject of discourse, not in that country alone, but everywhere else; and what had been objected to the prince, with regard to his marrying her, now took a contrary turn. They had not lived long together before she proved with child, and at length brought forth a daughter, for which he made great rejoicings.
"In His moral image only. God is a spirit. He is everywhere present, and therefore cannot have a body, such as you claim," objected one. "I claim nothing, my friend.
