Owing to this annoyance, I was unable to attend service in the cathedral, or even to see the inside of it. Our drive to the Lierfoss, in the evening, was an exquisite enjoyment. The valley of the Nid, behind Drontheim, is one of the most carefully cultivated spots in Norway.

But it wouldn't add anything to your happiness to have me there; it would be quite the other way about. I know that, if you DON'T. This is my place, here, and I intend to stick to it!" Julia's bright eyes, scanning the apathetic, stubborn maternal countenance, hardened beyond their wont. "You talk as if there had been some class war declared," she said, with obvious annoyance.

I shall only have to go on paying the interest." "Till Mr Simpson chooses to come down upon me and make me pay," said Richard, with a laugh full of annoyance. "No, he won't; he said he wouldn't. It's such a little sum, too nothing to you! Here, come on with me at once, and let's settle it."

Possibly he had met the Walter Scott man. She turned away. "I guess I'll go and help Mrs. Smith lay out the lunch," she said, as the easiest way to be rid of the annoyance.
