"I am sure he thought of you kindly at the last, and I never shall think of you in that that other way. You must go to Europe and begin life over again." Harriet rose and kissed Betty affectionately. "Good-night," she said. "You are just worn out, and I have kept you up.

Do you not think so?" she asked, looking affectionately into his eyes. "I hope so," said Ronald, with a last attempt at indifference. Then suddenly his face softened, and he added in a gentler tone, "Indeed, Joe, I think I shall be very happy soon." "I am so glad," said Joe again, still holding his hand, but leaning her head back wearily in the deep chair.

Dick's face was gloomy, but Austin's was bright, as he came briskly up and, cigar in hand, stooped to his mother. She put her arms round his neck, kissed him affectionately, and inquired after his sleep and his comfort and the quality of his breakfast. "Doesn't Austin smell of tobacco smoke, mother?" asked Dick. "Austin," replied Mrs. Ware, "has a way of smoking and not smelling of it."

"It is so vulgar to be unpunctual," said Adelaide with her calm good-breeding. "It seems to me only another form of uncleanliness and disorder."

He grasped my arm for support. Everything was very still.

The lady was welcome as your friend, Merton; but she is doubly so, as the widow and child of the gentlemen you name." "De Lacey!" murmured an agitated voice in the ear of the governess. "The law gives me a title to bear that name," returned she whom we shall still continue to call by her assumed appellation, folding her weeping pupil long and affectionately to her bosom.

When she first entered the room she had kissed these old uncles affectionately, walking toward the Duke of Sussex, who was very feeble.

"Just before dinner!" Susan told her. Turning to the invalid's sister she said: "Miss Lydia, you're busy, and I'm disturbing you." "I wish you'd disturb us a little oftener, then," said Lydia Lord, affectionately. "I can work all the better for knowing that Mary isn't dying to interrupt me." The older sister, seated at a little table under the gaslight, was deep in work.

Ever affectionately yours, That incipient leaning to Catholicity which is so observable among the literary men of the later Georgian era, especially of the school of Sir Walter Scott, was probably not wanting in Mr. Lockhart. At Rome he seems to have chiefly lived among Catholics; and quite in keeping with this view is an anecdote I have heard, of his observing to Mr.
