His only son had been captain in a crack regiment, and had sold out of the army after his father's death, in order to marry Lady Laura Challoner, second daughter of the Earl of Calderwood, a nobleman of ancient lineage and decayed fortunes, and to begin life as a country gentleman under her wise governance.

Lady Laura was fainting in her husband's arms, and George Fairfax was standing near her reading a telegram. People had not long to wait for the evil news. Lord Calderwood had been seized with a paralytic stroke his third attack at ten o'clock the previous night, and had expired at half-past eight that morning. There could be no wedding that day nor for many days and weeks to come.

She'd seen old Calderwood already. I guess she blackmails him the old reprobate, and him the noble counselor at law for Mr. Harry Marvin!" "So you put her on the scent for us?" "Why not? The young fellow's been acting suspicious for a long time." "You did very well." "How about some money I haven't seen the color of a roll since you put that fool Baskinelli into the game. Ain't you coming across?"

Among the other philosophical writers of Scotland, affiliated, but with different degrees of dissent, with the school of Reid and Hamilton, are Professors Fraser and Calderwood, and the late James McCosh. Intuitions were regarded by Mill as the impression produced by a frequent conjunction of like experiences, and thus to be the product of sensation.

Calderwood, Secretary of the Concert Hall, Lord Nelson Street, gave us several engagements for the "Saturday Evening Concerts," in which, from time to time, Samuel Lover, Henry Russell, The English Glee and Madrigal Union, and other well-known popular entertainers, appeared. Mr.

"Lord Calderwood has been dead nearly two years," replied Miss Granger. "I fancy that engagement between Mr. Fairfax and Lady Geraldine must have been broken off. If it were not so, they would surely have been married before now.

It was reported that Patrick Galloway, the king’s chaplain, induced Henderson to pretend to be the man in the turret. As to the good man of Pitmillie, Calderwood did not even know his name. This is mere gossip. Again, Calderwood, who offers these criticisms, does not ask why, of all concerned, Henderson was the only man that fled who had not been seen in connection with the fray and the tumult.

In London Clarissa met Lady Laura Armstrong; for the first time since that September afternoon in which she had promised that no arts of George Fairfax's should move her to listen to him. Lord Calderwood had been dead a year and a half, and my lady was resplendent once more, and giving weekly receptions in Mr.

He was left to inform himself, but Calderwood says, that the story about Craigengelt’s dying confession was untrue. Bruce by letter, that the treason, ‘in respect of that I saw,’ was a certain fact. This he professed ‘before God in heaven.’ Meanwhile Mr. Hall was restored to his Edinburgh pulpit, and Mr. A later letter of Bruce’s now takes up the tale.

Yet he instantly fled, with others who had been active in the brawl, and remained in concealment. Calderwood, the earnest collector of contemporary gossip and documents, assures us that when the man in the turret could not be found, the first proclamation identified him with a Mr. Robert Oliphant, a ‘black grim man,’ but that Oliphant proved his absence from Perth.
