Father Batt invariably took a few tumblers of hot whisky punch after dinner, and having got ill was advised by the doctor to give it up and take to claret. When the bishop met him some time later, he said: 'Well, Father Batt, I am afraid you do not like claret so well as the whisky. 'It's this way, my lord, he replied.
I tied him up with a butt in the stomach, and cut through the Crescent, doubling back into the Camden Road by Batt Street. "At the Canal Bridge I looked behind me, and could see no one. I dropped the goose over the parapet, and it fell with a splash into the water. "Heaving a sigh of relief, I turned and crossed into Randolph Street, and there a constable collared me.
He did not reflect that some outward circumstance is often made to serve an inward impulse. The outward circumstance was that the castle of Tournehem was frequented by a soldier, a friend of Batt, a man of very dissolute conduct, who behaved very badly towards his pious wife, and who was, moreover, an uncultured and violent hater of priests.
'She has plenty of money to give to those scoundrels in hoods, but nothing for me, who can write books which will make her famous. In ira veritas. But for Erasmus and Batt the rather simpering statue of Anne on the front of the town-hall at Veere would have little meaning for us to-day. We must not judge Erasmus too hardly in his double tongue.
Dorothy Warfield was beaten and the suffragists heard the beating. Subscribed and sworn to before me this day of disgust, 1917. JOSEPH H. BATT, Notary Public.

I have heard that from you so often that it quite makes me sick. The minx!
The Boer then shot at Lance-Corporal Harvey and Private Pearse, who were standing together with their hands up above their heads, the shot wounding Private Pearse and killing Lance-Corporal Harvey. Here is the evidence of the murder of the wounded at Vlakfontein on May 29, 1901: Private D. Chambers, H Company, 1st Batt.
"Receive, my lady, the most distinguished sentiments on the part of your devoted "JEAN PROMPLER, "1st Batt. Infanterie, "12th line Regiment." I remember my first joy-ride so well. "Uncle" took Porter and myself up to St. Inglevert with some stores for our small convalescent home, of which more anon. Before proceeding further, I must here explain who "Uncle" was.
But Tradesman Batt did not amount to much either; he was short and freckled, and talked of nothing but money and trade. Besides, he had only a small shop in the town, and dealt in tobacco and fruit. No, he did not amount to much. One day, during a long spell of rain, I sat talking with Miss Torsen.
