'That fool of a farmer! cried Reginald. 'What is to be done? said Lily, disconsolately. 'There is the road, said Reginald. 'How do you propose to get into it? 'There was a gap here last summer, said the boy. 'Very likely! Come back; try the next field; it must have a gate somewhere. Back they went, after seeing the carrier's cart from Raynham pass by. 'Redgie, it must be half-past five!
The lamp fixed to the head of the hood illuminated a scarlet and gilded form, who was the first to alight. "Ah!" said Boldwood to himself, "come to see her again." Troy entered the carrier's house, which had been the place of his lodging on his last visit to his native place. Boldwood was moved by a sudden determination. He hastened home.
He didn't look much like a Bridegroom, as he stood in the Carrier's kitchen, with a twist in his dry face, and a screw in his body, and his hat jerked over the bridge of his nose, and his hands tucked down into the bottoms of his pockets, and his whole sarcastic, ill-conditioned self peering out of one little corner of one little eye, like the concentrated essence of any number of ravens.
"Why, theer's 'The White Hart' at Sevenoaks, an' they brews fine ale at 'The White Hart, d'ye see, an' one glass begets another." "And they sent ye back in the carrier's cart!" said the fat man, smiling broader than ever. "Ever see the Lord Mayor a-ridin' in 'is goold coach, sir?" pursued the old man. "Yes," said I.

Mercy Parris, the minister's daughter, has been smitten by a flash of Martha Carrier's eye, and falls down in the street, writhing with horrible spasms and foaming at the mouth, like the possessed one spoken of in Scripture.
He had also rather extensive gardens, from which he sold quantities of vegetables. It was more than suspected that the carrier's cart was really Luke's that is, he found the money for horsing it, and could take possession if he liked. The carrier's cart took his rabbits, and the game he purchased of poachers, to the railway, and the vegetables from the gardens to the customers in town.
He related his success a second time at the French court, but as all attempted discoveries then had only one object in view viz., the finding of gold and silver and as Carrier's journal of discovery made no mention of the precious metals, he met with a very cool reception. However, in 1540 the King deemed it advisable to appoint Francis de la Roque his viceroy and Lieutenant-General of Canada.
"The idea", she said, "that she should have to associate with boys who had take a fellow-creature's life was terrible to her, and their conduct in resisting, when grown-up men had given up the idea as hopeless, showed a violent spirit, which, in boys so young, was shocking." A few days after this, as the boys were coming from school, they passed the carrier's cart, coming in from Marlborough.
It chanced one day, however, that one of them insisted upon my sharing his glass of Canary wine, and afterwards out of roguishness persuaded me to take a second, with the result that I was sent home speechless in the carrier's cart, and was never again allowed to go into Portsmouth alone.
Even the Judge himself had planned upon Old Jerry's co-operation; he had had it in mind to be patronizingly lenient that night; that is, after that first rebuke which was to leave him the undisputed master of the situation. To reach the really great heights of which the evening's triumph was capable the old mail carrier's collaboration had been almost indispensable.
