One of the suits of armour which had been familiar to him in his boyhood loomed up in front of him, and with the sight came the recollection of how, when a mere child on his first visit to Windles, playing hide and seek with his cousin Eustace, he had concealed himself inside this very suit, and had not only baffled Eustace through a long summer evening but had wound up by almost scaring him into a decline by booing at him through the vizor of the helmet.
Not one of the policemen who stood round the door tried to stop the "booing" of the crowd who pursued Oscar Wilde with hootings and vile cries when he left the court. He was judged already and condemned before being tried. The police, too, acted against him with extraordinary vigour. It has been stated by Mr.
Meanwhile the shouts and booing of the hostile portion of the audience just augmented by a number of rough-looking men from the neighbouring brickfields prevented most of the remarks delivered by the male speaker on the cart from reaching the audience. "Cowards!" said an excited woman's voice "that's all they can do! howl like wild beasts that's all they're fit for!"
The moment he crossed the boundary, the booing and groaning of one area was succeeded by enthusiastic cheers in the other; grotesque effigies of Redmond and of himself in one street were replaced by equally unflattering effigies of Londonderry and Carson in the next; in Royal Avenue both men and women looked like tearing him in pieces, in Falls Road they thronged so close to shake his hand that "Mr.

'Calls 'em 'umbugs to their fyces! Haw! haw! Roars and booing filled the air. 'We know, for many of us helped to put them there. But that was before we knew any better. Never again!
From the rear came that indescribable "booing" which those who have heard never forget, mingled with curses and cries: "Vive la greve!" "To hell with the Cossacks!" "Kahm on shoot!" The backs of the soldiers, determined, unyielding, were covered with heavy brown capes that fell below the waist.
The people were thronging up the street, elbowing each other, treading on each other's toes, yelling, booing, forgetful of all save the strange coincidence that, on this evening of all others, the banquet in honor of Clive, the Indian hero, had been interrupted by the sudden appearance of a live Indian in their very midst.
