'That is sub rosa, you know, whispered the old printer, with half averted face. Godwin shrank away, and could not resume the conversation thus interrupted. On the following day he went about with a feeling of guilt. He avoided the sight of Mr. Rawmarsh, for whom he had suddenly lost all respect, and suffered torments in the thought that he enjoyed an unfair advantage over his class-mates.
At home, during those first holidays, she gave her sister and brothers cold creeps down their spines, with her stories of the great doings that took place at school; and none of her class-mates would have recognised in this arrant drawer-of-the-long-bow, the unlucky little blunderbuss of the early days. On her return, Laura's circle of friends was enlarged.
She hailed her class-mates, and at once began to talk over the match and rejoice at the school victory. "Who says we're no good at games now? This has sent up our credit ten per cent! I'm proud of the Coll.!" "Blossom was A1," exulted Verity. "And Janie was simply ripping. Dad thought no end of her. Didn't you, Dad?" "Well, I'm glad we made something of a record," admitted Ingred.
The reading of the rules in the class was merely a form, and my remarks, instead of inducing my offending class-mates to return to the old Methodist custom, only caused them and those who sided with them, to look on me as a troubler of Israel. I got myself into a little trouble on a later occasion at a local preachers' meeting.
I suppose some one told you to, didn't they?" "Please, sir," answered Diggory warily, "we thought we had to, so that you might have our names to enter in your mark-book." There was a burst of laughter, but that answer went a long way towards setting the Alliance on a good footing with their class-mates. "That young Trevanock's the right sort," said Maxton, "and so are the others.
"Yes, sir, and we'll show you how a class president looks braided with bailing-rope, we'll show you the pretty picture in a mirror, Mr. President, even if we have to haul you out of the arms of twenty Roble dames." Pete had taken his class-mates by storm and they piped acquiescence in thin Freshman voices. Smith flushed angrily. Here Lyman interfered.
Expecting every moment to hear my antagonist grind past me, on the cinders, I sped up the home-stretch. The air was swimming in a gold mist. I felt arms under mine, and I was carried off to the senior tent, by my class-mates.... Yet I am convinced that I would have been beaten, if my rival had not had the string that held his trunks up, break.
Not being class-mates, they had been almost strangers to each other at college, until, by a mere accident, an argument respecting your Southern institutions led to an angry dispute, and harsh words passed between them. Being both of the ardent temperament you so much admire, a challenge ensued, and, in spite of my entreaty and remonstrance, a duel.
Four years later, when he was twenty-four and a half, he received his degree of licentiate of letters. Most of his class-mates became school-teachers, but he preferred to pursue his studies. Medicine tempted him. On the continent of Europe, a university degree between that of bachelor and of doctor. Two years before, in 1892, a cholera epidemic had broken out in Russia.
She described to him, with a number of new tricks of gesture caught from her French class-mates, how she had that morning outwitted all her guardians, who supposed that she had gone to Versailles with one of the senior members of the class she was attending at the Conservatoire, a young teacher, "tres sage," with whom she had been allowed once or twice to go to museums and galleries.
