The cashier repeated the smile that bracketed his thin nose in wrinkles. "That's with you, but you know what you say goes with the niggers here in town, and, besides, I won't promise how long I'll hold the Dillihay place. Real estate is brisk around here now. I didn't want to delay a good work on account of not having a location." Mr.
'Still, it isn't right that Buckland should come second. 'That's absurd, was the good-natured reply. The lady of course remained unconvinced, and for years she nourished a pique against Professor Gale, not so much owing to his having bracketed her son as because the letter P has alphabetical precedence of W. In what remained of the proceedings the Warricombes had no personal interest.
It was this lady who whenever the occasion demanded, which was not often bracketed in a breath Roman Catholics and unfortunate women of the street, and alluded to them jointly as poor creatures. To be able to say this, and feel that one is daring convention by one's breadth of mind, is no uncommon standard of Christian intelligence. But all this dutiful attention to Lady Bray availed the Rev.

"Hullo, Wray," he shouted, as the elder boy entered; "don't you wish it was this time to-morrow? I do, I'm mad to hear the result!" "Are you?" said Wraysford. "Yes, and so are you, you old humbug. Noll says he thinks he did pretty well, and that you answered well too. I say, what a joke if it's a dead heat, and you both get bracketed first."
"Borrowed plumes with a vengeance," said Maddox. "Vaughan might just as well have turned him out tarred and feathered as illustrated by Mordaunt Crawley. Mind you, some of that tar will stick. It'll take him all his time to get it off." "Did you see," said Stables, "that Hanson bracketed him with Letheby in this morning's Courier?" "No, did he?" said Maddox; "I'm sorry for that.
