Brace Hall and the estates went to your father and the bequest came to me, for you were considered dead. My stepfather was made trustee. He gave bond in England and America, I believe.

"That's asking," said Dickson. "But I'll tell ye this much. It's jools." "Your own?" "No, but I'm their trustee." "Valuable?" "I was hearing they were worth more than a million pounds." "God bless my soul," said the startled manager. "I don't like this kind of business, McCunn." "No more do I. But you'll do it to oblige an old friend and a good customer.
"I shall be glad to serve you with any legal advice that you may need," offered Mr. Barrister, patting his finger-tips gently together. "Are you the trustee?" "No, sir" this with a dusty smile.

"He's a grand young man," said he; "good company and you'll enjoy it." They looked soberly at each other. According to tradition, one was fifty-four the other fifty-five years of age. An exclamation broke from the lips of one. It sounded like the letter y whispered quickly. "Y!" the other answered. "It might make a match," said Mr. Blount, the trustee, smiling.
There have been few men in history with whom personal objects counted for so little as they counted with Burke. He really did what so many public men only feign to do. He forgot that he had any interests of his own to be promoted, apart from the interests of the party with which he acted, and from those of the whole nation, for which he held himself a trustee.
'Me! cried James. 'Me that deserves to suffer? Who was it put the thing into my mind? Who was it that came time and time and time again to whisper into my ear, and tell me where I could find the men and and and everything? Why curse you ! 'Look here, said John Jervase. 'You're a sidesman and a trustee, and the Lord alone knows what all. Be decent in your language. 'You made me your catspaw.

"But suppose the Doctor should leave you?" objected a friend of ours to a trustee, who had been urging him to buy a pew in a fashionable church.

Holyoke was turning away hundreds of girls every year, and there were few or no other advanced schools for girls of limited means." In 1867 Mr. Durant was elected a trustee of Mt. Holyoke.
