The audience was very large, including many Armenians resident in England, and rose with vociferous cheering when Mr. and Mrs. Gladstone, the Duke of Westminster, the Bishop of Chester, and the Mayor of Chester entered the hall. The Bishop of Ripon was already there. The Duke of Westminster presided, and read a letter from the Marquis of Salisbury, the Premier. Mr.

"Sit down sh!" said Lord Brompton, and he put his finger to his lips and nodded toward a low door which was visible a few feet beyond. "It is there." "Oh, this is delightful. Is it a real, genuine, ancestral ghost?" "In that chamber the Lady Marian Ripon, an ancestress of mine, is said to have died of a broken heart.

"I've watched you, I've taken a personal pride in you, and I have an idea that eventually you will succeed me here neither Fowndes nor Ripon have the peculiar ability you have shown. You and I are alike in a great many respects, and I am inclined to think we are rather rare, as men go. We are able to keep one object vividly in view, so vividly as to be able to work for it day and night.

After 1598 a horn was blown every evening to denote the setting of the watch.

In contrast to the somewhat dingy offices where my father had practised in the Blackwood Block, the quarters of Watling, Fowndes and Ripon on the eighth floor of the new Durrett Building were modern to a degree, finished in oak and floored with marble, with a railed-off space where young women with nimble fingers played ceaselessly on typewriters. One of them informed me that Mr.

This decision was recommended not only by the Viceroy, the Marquis of Ripon, but by the higher officers who had held command during the war.
