"What would you give Christ, Bagot, if He had saved her to you?" The man shook with grief, and tears rushed from his eyes, so suddenly and fully had a new emotion passed through him.
Responsible government was in a fair way of being permanently established when Sir Charles Bagot unhappily died in 1843 of dropsy, complicated by heart-disease; and Lord Metcalfe was brought from India to create as it soon appeared confusion and discord in the political affairs of the province.
In his attempt to answer these various problems, Bagot was at his worst in finance. He had not the requisite business training, and entirely lacked Sydenham's knowledge, boldness, and precision.
The smaller the number of the armed forces agreed upon, he said, the better; "or to abstain altogether from an armed force beyond that used for the revenue." After some suspicious hesitation, Lord Castlereagh accepted this novel proposal; and it was given effect to by an exchange of notes, signed by Mr. Bagot, British Minister at Washington, and Mr.

In fact they were all laughing so that only the excitement on the part of the three in Mr. Socrat's room prevented the boys from being discovered. "Let me see ze writing," said the French teacher.
