"Then thou shalt have an opportunity, and I will stand thy friend." John Cassell now went forth as a disciple of the temperance cause. Remembering his experiences on the way to London he furnished himself with a watchman's rattle, with which he used to call together the people of the villages he visited. A temperance paper thus speaks of him in 1837:
"The Honourable James Horatio Nelson Cassell, H.M. Commissioner of Customs, Member of the Executive Council of Victoria, born 1814. 39 years of age." I have already had to mention repeatedly one of my very best and most intimate friends. He died in November, 1853, while I was upon a Home visit. He left a message for me that he looked forward to resuming our most pleasant friendship in Heaven.
He was fidgeting around on an old sandbag with the glass to his eye. Occasionally he would let out a grunt, and make some remark I couldn't hear on account of the noise, but I guessed what it was all right. Fritz was getting fresh again on that road. "Cassell had been sending in the 'tap code' to me, but I was fed up and didn't bother with it.
We were at the theatre with the Cassells, and saw him in a box, and Doctor Cassell, the old darling, knows him, and went to the President's box to ask if we might be brought in and presented, and, my dear, he got up and came back with Doctor Cassell to our box, and was simply SWEET, and asked me if I wasn't from the South, and I nearly said, 'Yes, south of Market Street, but refrained in time.
Cassell and Co., the well-known publishers, which occupy the whole site of the old building. We can find no earlier reference to the inn than that in the reign of Henry VI, when a certain John French in a deed made over to his mother for her life "all that tenement or inn, with its appurtenances, called Savage's Inn, otherwise called 'le Bell on the Hope' in the parish of Fleet Street, London."
Cassell, then one of the Official Legislative Members, who, supported by the Melbourne Chamber of Commerce, was bent upon a tariff of the Home kind, of half-a-dozen leading articles, with perfect freedom of exchange over the world for all products of the colony's labour. But Mr.
Whittaker was staying nearly had a fit; and after he had at length recovered his gravity he ejaculated, "Well, I would have given a guinea to have seen you before you did go". Yet John Cassell was a diamond though at that time the roughest specimen one could come across from the pit's mouth to the Isle of Dogs.
"'I was trembling with excitement. From repeated stolen glances at the Captain's range chart, that road with its range was burned into my mind. "Over the wire I tapped, 'D 238 Battery, Target Seventeen, Range 6000, three degrees, thirty minutes, left, Salvo, Fire. Cassell O. E.'d my message, and with the receiver pressed against my ear, I waited and listened.
In spite of ethnological and philological distinctions, geographical association makes it more natural to include a Finnish tale in the volume with Scandinavian stories than in any other volume of this collection. From "Squire Hellman." Translated by R. Nisbet Bain. Published by the Cassell Publishing Co.
We decided upon a broken column as his monument fit emblem of the life so early broken and we settled his brief, simple epitaph, which Mr. Cassell drew up: "Erected by his friends in this colony in testimony of esteem and regard." "Edmund Charles Hobson, M.D., born 1814, died in his 34th year."
