I confess, the source of our hopes, and the protector we have found, are not of a dignity to be ushered to your notice by citations of blank verse, or scraps of sentiment; for though the top of the ladder is not quite so high, the first rounds are as low as that of Ben Bowling's.
In a country where all things imported have to be carried in rough waggons, or on mules' backs, and over bad roads, it would be hard if it did not pay to make glass; and, accordingly, we found the works in full operation. The soda is produced at Mr. Bowling's works close by, the fuel is charcoal from the mountains, and for sand they have a substitute, which I never heard of or saw anywhere else.
"I I don't expect to live long, and it won't make much difference," said Rachel. "You'll have to consult me about that," said Capt. Bowling. "I don't want you to leave me a widower too soon." "I propose that we drink Mrs. Bowling's health," said Jack. "Can anybody tell me why she's like a good ship?" "Because she's got a good captain," said Mrs. Harding.
If a woman has a drunken husband, or a disobedient child, she will more readily go to Hannah for comfort and advice than to me; and when James Baker was out of work, it was John Dawson who loaned him five pounds, and who finally got him a job in Bowling's mill. I could have done neither of these things for him, however willing I might have been." "I have never understood the office, then.
"Why don't you try to get in the Team?" asked he. "You're the best bowler in the Second Eleven." I grinned, and represented that such a consummation was of all earthly things impossible. "I don't see why," said he. "The school's batting talent is great, but the bowling's weak." Ye Gods! Had he ever heard of Honion? "O, sir," I remonstrated, "but our strength lies in Honion in Lancaster, I mean."
Bowling and his unions made a serious agitation for the general strike against the coercive measure just mentioned, but it was only by a tie vote that the New South Wales Labour Congress even favored protest in the form of cancelling the agreement which the unions had made under the Industrial Disputes Acts, while in the next elections New South Wales returned a majority of labor representatives opposing Bowling's policy of radical protest.
I mistimed the thing altogether. 'How was Warrington out? 'Caught in the slips. 'By Jove! said Mike. 'This is pretty rocky. Three for sixty-one. We shall get mopped. 'Unless you and Joe do something. There's no earthly need to get out. The wicket's as good as you want, and the bowling's nothing special. Well played, Joe!
Bowling's lodgings, where, when we arrived, he entered into a serious discourse with me, on the subject of my situation, and proposed that I should sail with him in quality of his surgeon; in which case he would put me in a method of getting a fortune in a few years by my own industry; and assured me, that I might expect to inherit all that he should die possessed of, provided I should survive him.
'When did you make up your mind to this, Louise? 'Yesterday, after our horrid quarrel. No, you didn't quarrel; it was all my abominable temper. This morning I'm going to answer Mr. Bowling's last letter, and I shall tell him what I've told you. He'll be delighted! 'Then you have really wished for this from the first?
