On one such excursion out across Hampstead Heath they lost their copy of "Shelley" in the leaves, and a wit has told us that it sprouted, and as a result the flower and fruit we have Browning's poem of "Pauline." Robert now being eighteen, a man grown not large, but very strong and wiry his father made arrangements for him to take a minor clerkship in the Bank.
Tom knew that he held his clerkship only by the tenure of Rita's smiles, and Williams, by employing him, gained an ally not at all to be despised. On a certain Monday morning, after Rita had the day previous shown marked preference to Dic, Williams said: "Tom, father orders me to cut down expenses, and I fear I shall be compelled to begin with your salary.
In the month of November, 1825, soon after Oscar Husson had taken possession of his new clerkship, and at the moment when he was about to pass his examination for the licentiate's degree, a new clerk arrived to take the place made vacant by Oscar's promotion. This fourth clerk, named Frederic Marest, intended to enter the magistracy, and was now in his third year at the law school.
When all the world reaches the Alcott stage, there will be no need of soldiers, policemen, night-watchmen, or bolts, bars and locks.

She had for a long time thought of trying to obtain a clerkship at Washington, perhaps Farnham would help her to that, and her mind wandered off among the possibilities of chance acquaintance with bachelor senators and diplomats.
They have outgrown colonial dependance; their minority is ended; their clerkship is out; they are of age now: they never did well in your house; they were put out to nurse at a distance; they had their schooling; they learnt figures early; they can add and multiply faster than you can to save your soul; and now they are uneasy.
Some of the stores advertised "English Spoken." That would be something to fall back on, a clerkship during the day. Toward dawn she discovered that she was very cold, and she went into the Big Soprano's deserted and disordered room. The tile stove was warm and comfortable, but on the toilet table there lay a disreputable comb with most of the teeth gone. Harmony kissed this unromantic object!
Had a clerkship been what was in store for Salmon, he would have obtained it; but since, had he got it, he would probably have never been ready to give it up, how fortunate that he received instead the offer of fifty cents wherewith to purchase a spade!
Why, I remember Well, before Jack made his first hit with Astaroth's Lackey, he lived with his sister. They hadn't any money, and, of course, Jack couldn't be expected to take a clerkship or anything like that, because business details make his head ache, poor boy. So, his sister taught school, and he lived with her.
On the night of Saturday, April 6th, I received the following, dispatch: Washington, April 6,1861. Major W. T. Sherman: Will you accept the chief clerkship of the War Department? We will make you assistant Secretary of War when Congress meets. M. Blair, Postmaster-General. To which I replied by telegraph, Monday morning; "I cannot accept;" and by mail as follows: Monday, April 8, 1861.
