Algernon, more in astonishment than trepidation, observed him feeling at his breast-pocket. The action resulted in an exhibition of a second bill, with a legal receipt attached to it, for three hundred pounds. "Mr. Samuels is anxious to accommodate you in every way, sir. It isn't the full sum he wants; it's a portion. He thought you might prefer to discharge a portion."
"Two o' the sons, Jamie an' Timothy uz married an' be goun' tull sea. Thot bug house close tull the post office uz Jamie's. The daughters thot ha' no married be luvun' wuth them as dud marry. An' the rest be dead." "The Samuels," Clara interpolated, with what I suspected was a giggle. She was Mrs. Ross's daughter, a strapping young woman with handsome features and remarkably handsome black eyes.
I may as well let you know that Mr. Samuels " "There, stop!" cried Algernon, laughing, as he thought, heartily. "Mr. Samuels is a very tolerable Jew; but he doesn't seem to understand dealing with gentlemen. Pressure comes;" he waved his hand swimmingly; "one wants money, and gets it how one can.

Samuels had his warning. The mountaineer would be ready. Bob had no intention of delivering a frontal attack. He rode circumspectly, therefore, until he discerned an opening in the forest. Here he dismounted. The opening, of course, might be only that of a natural meadow, but in fact proved to be the homestead claim of which Bob was in search.
This case must be used with hesitation; see below, appendix A, § 3. At Warboys the Samuels had been required to repeat: "If I be a witch and consenting to the death" of such and such a one. Alice Wilson, at Northampton in 1612, was threatened by the justice with execution, if she would not say after the minister "I forsake the Devil."

"Yes," Algernon prolonged an affirmative, to diminish the confidence it might inspire, if possible. "May I speak with you, sir?" Algernon told him to follow in. The man was tall and large-featured, with an immense blank expression of face. "I've come from Mr. Samuels, sir," he said, deferentially. Mr. Samuels was Algernon's chief jeweller.

'It stands in the Talmud, interposed Mendel, with unwonted animation in his long figure, 'that one must not even offer a nut to allure customers. From light to heavy, therefore, it may be deduced that A still small voice broke in upon the storm. 'But Simeon Samuels hasn't a Christian partner, said Mrs. Mendel. There was an embarrassed pause. 'He has only his wife to help him, she went on.
