Desire the guitar-player to come to me to-day. Amenda (instead of an amende [fine], which he sometimes deserves for not observing his rests properly) must persuade this popular guitarist to visit me, and if possible to come at five o'clock this evening; if not then, at five or six o'clock to-morrow morning; but he must not waken me if I chance to be still asleep. Adieu, mon ami
During his last visit to us in Rochester there appeared in the newspapers a touching story connected with the horrors of the Sepoy War in British India. A Scotch missionary and his family were in the hands of the enemy, and were to be massacred the next morning. During the night, when they had given up every hope of rescue, suddenly the wife insisted that relief would come.
But in following this out, I omitted to visit the Castle of Hunyad a great mistake, for castles are rare in this part of Europe, and the romantic and singular position of Schloss Hunyad renders it quite unique in a way.
The following day two Dulbahantas paid us a visit, and demanded to know by whose authority we had come upon their grounds; we were trespassers, and must pay our footing. The ground was theirs, and they recognised no authority over them. What I had given at the last place was no concern of theirs, but I must give them also a quantity of cloth equivalent to it.

"And I should like to have some shooting with Ferrars in Scotland. He has asked me so often, and I could just fit it in this year."
A number of the men of the camp came to visit there again that evening. "We thought little Skeezucks might be lonesome," they explained. So often as the door was opened, the pup and the grave little pilgrim clothed these days in the little white frock Miss Dennihan had made looked up, ever in the hope, of espying again those three red caps. The men saw the wistfulness increase in the baby's face.
"If you visit us in August," said Robert, "you will hear the best operas, see the best automobile races, the most exciting motor-boat races " "But we shall be on our own motor-boat in August," said I. "I do not think so. You will perhaps let your boat. We will talk to my mother," Robert answered, as one soothes a fractious child.
