"Yes, Maria," said Lady Fenimore, with fear in her dark eyes, "we don't doubt your word but, as Anthony has said, if she wasn't with you, where was she?" "How do I know?" Maria Beccles pointed a lean finger she was a dark and shrivelled, gipsy-like creature. "You might as well ask the canal in which she drowned herself." "But, my God, Anthony!"
The product of Beccles accepted at all events a cigarette still much as a joke and an adventure and looked about him as if even more pleased than he expected. Then he broke, through his double eye-glass, into an exclamation that was like a passing pang of envy and regret. "You young men, you young men !" "Well, what about us?" Vanderbank's tone encouraged the courtesy of the reference.
Approaching by road, you see no sign of the house till you are in it, so completely is it hidden in the nook of trees in which it stands. Only to the water is it open. It would be really beautiful to live there in the summer, and have a gondola to row into Beccles or Lowestoft or Bungay when you wanted to be gay.
On the strength of these offers, Crabbe and Miss Elmy wore married in December 1783, in the parish church of Beccles, where Miss Elmy's mother resided, and a few weeks later took up their abode in the rooms assigned them at Belvoir Castle.

They all went to the Beccles Station, and from thence to the Beccles Post-office, so that Beccles soon knew as much about it as Bungay. At the railway station Ruby was distinctly remembered.
He had lived there since the death of his brother, two years earlier that grim Clubbe of Maiden's Grave, whose methods of life and agriculture are still quoted on market days from Colchester to Beccles. The evenings were shorter now, for July was drawing to a close, and the summer is brief on these coasts. The moon was not up yet, but would soon rise.
In these parts are also several good market towns, some in this county and some in the other, as Beccles, Bungay, Harlston, etc., all on the edge of the River Waveney, which parts here the counties of Suffolk and Norfolk. And here in a bye-place, and out of common remark, lies the ancient town of Hoxon, famous for being the place where St.
