Parties of ladies and gentlemen have come to Boughton from a distance of a hundred and fifty miles, to visit the scene of that fatal affray, and stroke on the back the horse of the "mad Knight of Malta." If a strict watch had not been kept over his grave for months, the body would have been disinterred, and the bones carried away as memorials.
Now, if you...if you...that is..." "Our names are Jane Boughton and Mamie Featherhurst," supplied Aileen, transfixing the lady with her wicked green eyes. "Oh, yes, to be sure...there has been so much to think of...but your names are so often in the society columns...it seems to me I recall that one of you is the daughter of a famous judge " "Boughton.
While the pieces were being unlimbered, which was only the work of an instant, an inquiry was made of Captain Boughton, of the 3d Cavalry, whose troop had just reached this point, as to the position of our troops and of the enemy, with the further remark that the battery had been under fire since eight o'clock, and had not seen a Spaniard.
She was fit as a racing yacht; her load was perfectly distributed and she trimmed to a hairbreadth. An hour later they snored down upon the Night Hawk, the last vessel at the edge of the fleet. "Better hurry!" megaphoned Stetson, tickled with himself. "Burns cleared six hours ago for Freekirk Head with a thousand quintal. He's got Boughton sewed up to buy 'em, too."
"That's how Jack Slack thrashed Boughton, and I myself saw Hooper, the tinman, beat to pieces by the fighting oilman. They all come to it in time, and now it's Harrison's turn." "Don't you be so sure about that!" cried a third. "I've seen Jack Harrison fight five times, and I never yet saw him have the worse of it. He's a slaughterer, and so I tell you." "He was, you mean."
Inside a week another large consignment of fish arrived. Boughton was ready for it, and for all that could come, he said, in the next two months.
"In the evening all assembled in the public place, each with a stick in his hand, with which they began to beat the cabins on all sides, making a very loud noise, to chase away, they said, the soul of the deceased, which might be concealed in some corner to do them injury." This scene took place in Western New York, a mile and a half west of Boughton Hill, but about two hundred years ago.
Boughton is in this manner not a simple talent, further complications and reversions may be observed in him, as, for instance, that having reverted from America, where he spent his early years, back to England, the land of his origin, he has now in a sense oscillated again from the latter to the former country. Certainly now it never can come, for the country that Mr.
You and I and all of us have got long-standing credit at his store for supplies we paid for later from our fishing. The fire of the other night cost Mr. Boughton a lot, and, as most of his money is represented in outstanding credit, he cannot advance any more goods. "Mr.
"It's a good catch, Code, and fine fish," answered Boughton, who had been writing. "How will you have the money in a lump or individual checks?" "Separate checks." Boughton went back to his glass-surrounded desk to write them.
