John Benett would not be so hardy as to bring forward a petition, the sole object of which was the keeping up the price of corn, under the cloak of its being a petition in favour of the tradesman and the mechanic.
Benett addressed them at a very considerable length in favour of a petition that he submitted for their adoption, expressive of the serious injury already sustained by the farmer, and the probable result likely to fall on the landholder, arising from the reduced and low price of corn, owing particularly to the importations from France, &c.
Lay the ornaments aside with the ring." "But I must call your attention to the fact that these ornaments are reserved for the adornment of youthful brides on their wedding-day, and that " "By Saint Olaf! you are right. Mr. Benett, you are quite right. Poor Hulda! Unfortunately it is not Ole who is making her this present, but myself, and it is not to a blushing bride that I am going to offer it."
"One balances the other." "I am glad to see that your journey through Central Norway has been safely accomplished." "Not accomplished, only concluded, for this year." "But tell me, pray, all about those good people you met at Dal." "Excellent people they were, friend Benett, in every sense of the word." "From what I can learn through the papers they are certainly very much to be pitied."
The search on the coast of Greenland has been equally unsuccessful, so it may be considered almost certain that none of the unfortunate ship's crew survived the catastrophe." "Good-morning, Mr. Benett. It is always a great pleasure to me when I have an opportunity to shake hands with you." "And for me, professor, it is a great honor." "Honor, pleasure pleasure, honor," laughed the professor.
John Oakes, of Bath, who had seen the attack made upon me, was demanding of a ruffian the reason for such outrageous conduct. This ruffian was a fellow of the name of Stone, a game-keeper to Mr. John Benett, of Pyt-House, of Corn-Bill notoriety, one of the present members for the county of Wilts. Stone stood grinning defiance, with a double-barrelled gun, cocked, in his hand.
In the meantime I will take the cross and corsage ornaments. My little Hulda may marry some day after all. Good and charming as she is she certainly will not want for an opportunity to utilize these ornaments, so I will buy them and take them away with me." "Very well, very well, professor." "Shall we have the pleasure of seeing you at the drawing, friend Benett?" "Certainly."
Benett and a few of his friends, retired to a private room at the inn, but whether to sign this petition in secret, which they could not carry in public, or to abandon it altogether, we do not know. A statement of the fate of the petition was announced to the inhabitants of the town by the bellman, amidst the becoming cheers of the populace.
