People who stalk along through life with elevated noses, are not pleasing or edifying spectacles." His disquietude soon caused him to return to the hotel, in hopes of seeing the object of his thoughts.
It gave me a much stronger interest in the children, seeing them thus in their own homes, where was so much love, so much solicitude for even the dullest of them.

He was overjoyed at the prospect of so soon seeing his dearly loved wife and daughter, and his parents and brothers; at the same time he had met with great hospitality in Charleston; had made many firm friends; had impressed himself strongly on the life of the city, as he always did wherever he went, and had met with most gratifying success in his profession.
