"No, you didn't; but, though there are a good many baronets, they don't exactly crowd a neighbourhood! What did he say to you?" "I 'ain't seen him yet, miss, Barbara, I mean! I went up to the lodge, and the woman looked me all over, curious like, from head to foot; and then she said sir Wilton wasn't at home, nor likely to be." "What a lie!" exclaimed Barbara. "You know him then, Barbara?"
So that all together, I must say that if simple honest Aby might paradventer to put in my oar to so generous and so noble a gentleman, and moreover won of his majesty's baronets, why I would keep the money now I had a got it; since, as your onnur finds, money is not so easy to be a come at. Pray your onnur, I beesiege your onnur don't forget that; money is not so easy to be a come at.
"He is one of us: we ought to be able to depend on him. But I have spoken to him for an hour, and could get nothing out of him." "He is cautious; but depend upon it, he will stand or fall by the land." "The baronets! And what do they want?" "Their rights; their long withheld rights. The poor king was with us.
He did not seem to pursue his idea of going round the world on any settled consecutive plan. Of his large means there could be no doubt. He was probably one of the richest, as he was certainly one of the oldest, baronets in England, and he could afford to travel as if he were an accredited representative of the Queen almost as if he were an American Midas of the fourth or fifth class.

Phil's lost that Melrose case entirely; and he's out where a certain Kiowa brave we know is creepin' on his trail night and day. He'll never come back.

Though most of the country gentlemen were Tories, none but Whigs were created peers and baronets. Though most of the clergy were Tories, none but Whigs were appointed deans and bishops.
Her father was the eldest son of Sir Ensor Doone; and I happened to be the second son; and as young maidens cannot be baronets, I suppose I am 'Sir Counsellor. Is it so, Mistress Ridd, according to your theory of genealogy?"

He lived in the woods, as most bears do; but he had a reputation which extended over all Norway and more than half of England. Earls and baronets came every summer, with repeating-rifles of the latest patent, and plaids and field-glasses and portable cooking-stoves, intent upon killing him. But Mr.
After quitting Evan, Rose hied to her friend Jenny Graine, and in the midst of sweet millinery talk, darted the odd question, whether baronets or knights ever were tradesmen: to which Scottish Jenny, entirely putting aside the shades of beatified aldermen and the illustrious list of mayors that have welcomed royalty, replied that it was a thing quite impossible.
