Pupkin, the teller in the Exchange Bank, for it was here that he met Zena Pepperleigh, the judge's daughter, for the first time; and they worked so busily that they wrote out ever so many letters eight or nine in a single afternoon, and they discovered that their handwritings were awfully alike, which was one of the most extraordinary and amazing coincidences, you will admit, in the history of chirography.
The chirography was the same as that upon the note of the racing-car episode. Shirley locked up the missive in his cabinet, and smiled at the increasing tenseness of the situation. "The writer of these two notes may have an opportunity to leave town himself before long, to rest his nerves in the quiet valley of the Hudson, at Ossining.
Anonymous letters continued to come in almost by every mail, making charges and imputations upon Agnes, and frequently connecting Podge Byerly with her. Terrible epithets such as "Murderess!" "A second Mrs. Chapman!" "Jezebel," etc. were employed in these letters. Many of them were written by female hands or in very delicate male chirography, as if men who wrote like women had their natures.

Hudson Hotel. The day, which for Lilly began with the tickle of aerial champagne, petered out humiliatingly.
But when a witness, skilled in general chirography, but possessing no knowledge of the handwriting under investigation, is called to compare that writing with other genuine writings that have been brought into juxtaposition with it, he is strictly an expert.

"Here are your bonds," said Mr. McKeever, handing Mrs. Effingham a small package in a manila envelope.
Collier have us believe that this also was introduced in the British Museum? We have chosen the word "begging" for fac-simile not merely because of the marked character of its chirography. It has other significance. Mr. Who that is familiar with the corrections in Mr. "And crook the begging hinges of the knee"; Now it is remarkable that the majority of the changes proposed by Mr.
Mildred redeemed Belle's promise, and between them all they soon fitted Clara for her trip to the country. By the time Mrs. Atwood's reply reached Mildred, and Roger's hearty answer came back in response to Belle's characteristic note, she was ready to go. "There's a man's hand for you," cried Belle exultantly as she exhibited Roger's bold chirography.

At last, placing it in an envelope and affixing thereto a seal, he turned and ordering Mesrour to give Mr.
An expert at chirography would doubtless have distinguished in the lines traces of a violent temperament, of a character stern and unsocial.
