Sue's glance renewed her reproaches for the scene on the lawn; but Minturn went promptly forward, and throwing his arm around the matron's plump shoulders, gave his first filial kiss. "Come, mother," he said, "Sue has thought of you both; and I've given her a big promise that I won't take any more of her away than I can help.
The reverend gentleman and his wife then laid their heads together; and, recollecting something of John Hayes's former attachment to Mrs. Cat, thought that it might be advantageously renewed, should Hayes be still constant.

"Can I see my lawyer here?" he asked, suddenly. "My dear Romayne, you can see any one whom you like to invite." "I shall not trouble you by staying very long, Father Benwell."
I left my old servant with a heart too full to say good-bye; a warm squeeze of his rough, but honest black hand, and the whistle of the train sounded, we were off!
