"You will admit that as his wife I may find better opportunities to understand that complicated nature than you have had." "Will you not make me that promise?" "I will only promise to be guided by my judgment, not by my feelings. I hear Byam's voice. After all, it is hardly fair to talk him over like this."
She then calmly returned to her pasture, leaving him quit with a severe fright and a torn garment." In Mr. Byam's "Central America" I find this interesting history, with which I conclude the present series of anecdotes: "A bull had gored so many cattle that he was lassoed, and his horns blunted at the tips, to prevent further mischief.
The rest of the party charged altogether up to the foot of the tree, but the outcry of the old boar drew them away; and the whole herd went after him, making such a noise as never before had saluted Mr. Byam's ears. He remained in the tree a short time; and, when all was quiet, he slipped down, and ran away as fast as he could, in a contrary direction. Hogs are not equally prized by all nations.
As for the grim Squire, for whom alone the narrative had been served and garnished, at so very short a notice, he observed upon it, that "when he had used up old Byam's brains he should now have the less scruple in turning him out-of-doors, inasmuch as it seemed there was a profession in town that was just suited to him." How wondrous is the power of naked wealth of the mere money!
