"He's at the mill, mother. You know he has to stay there." "I know," replied Hannah, in a tone faintly reminiscent of the old aspersion. "But I've got everything ready for him in case he should come any time if the strikers hain't killed him." "But he's safe where he is." "I presume they will try to kill him, before they get through," Hannah continued evenly.
The labor, the thought, the responsibility, the strain of intellect and anguish of soul that he gave to this great task, who can measure? The sincerity of the fathers of the Republic was impugned he justified them. The Declaration of Independence was called a "string of glittering generalities" and a "self-evident lie"; he refuted the aspersion.
You want one that you can trust; you want no coward, but one who fears you not at your wildest. Well, I will be your leader. I do not fear you, and I do not love you, for how have you deserved my love? By ingratitude and aspersion? Who has the King's favour? Francois Bigot. Who has the ear of the Grande Marquise? Francois Bigot. Who stands firm while others tremble lest their power pass to-morrow?
'She is a little too sad and quiet for Jill's taste, I continued, 'and she is also somewhat reserved in manner, but when she likes a person thoroughly she is charming. I went on a little longer in this strain, until I had thoroughly vindicated my favourite from Jill's aspersion. 'You are very fond of her, Ursula: your eyes soften as you talk of her.

"That was very foolish of him," interposed Mrs Gilmour. "I suppose he did it to show off, like most of you men; for you're a consayted lot! The same as you punish your malacca cane, Captain!" "Not a bit of it!" retorted the old sailor indignantly, up in arms at once at the slightest aspersion on his hero's fame.
He told me, that it was his ill fortune, and he supposed he was not singular, to have enemies, that made it their business to misrepresent every circumstance of his conduct. He had been calumniated, cruelly calumniated, and could he discover the author of the aspersion, he would vindicate his honour with his sword.
She may hold him in contempt her lover whom she loves? If so, it is her life that is in question, and she may not despise him." "Her only recourse is silence." "You are wrong; the lover who suspects her casts an aspersion on her entire life. I know it. Her plea is in her tears, her past life, her devotion and her patience.
