I felt a sharp pang of pain, heard a loud shout and then all was dark. "On recovering I found myself lying in one of the beds of a hospital. My collar-bone had been broken, and I was very feverish scarcely understood where I was, and felt a dull sense of oppression on my brain. They spoke to me, and asked my name.

A bullet-hole in his right thigh and an imperfectly knitted right collar-bone remained to remind him of this propensity of his. His motto, as he was fond of saying, was, "What I have I hold!" "Well, Mr. Greve," said the detective in a loud, hectoring voice, "perhaps you will be good enough to tell me what you know of this affair?" Robin flushed angrily at the man's manner.

The silver he spent, and he has no doubt that he dropped the purse when pulling out his knife and some string from his pocket, exactly at the place where it was found." Ernest was overjoyed at hearing this. "I am certain Edward Ellis would consent gladly to be run away with a hundred times, and have his collar-bone broken each time, for the sake of hearing this," he exclaimed, warmly.

You must have comparative theology as you have comparative anatomy. What would you make of a cat's foolish little good-for-nothing collar-bone, if you did not know how the same bone means a good deal in other creatures, in yourself, for instance, as you 'll find out if you break it? You can't know too much of your race and its beliefs, if you want to know anything about your Maker.

Two of Pink's bullets had torn their way through his lungs, and the third had splintered his collar-bone. A surgeon had come out from Asheville, and, after examining the wounds, had sent for help. When the second physician arrived, they had probed and prodded the inert body, while Dr. Morgan, with an ever-growing fear clutching at his heart, administered the chloroform with a steady hand.

I came home like a crow through the mist, half dead with a rheumatic headache caused by the beastly north-east wind. "What am I now when every breeze appals me?" I dozed for half-an-hour in my chair for pain and stupidity. I omitted to say yesterday that I went out to Melville Castle to inquire after my Lord Melville, who had broke his collar-bone by a fall from his horse in mounting.

Frank thought that Wrightington had been killed and he came over and took Louis Hinkey by the hand, appreciating the severe criticism which was bound to be heaped upon his brother Louis. There was a furor. It was on everybody's tongue that Frank Hinkey had purposely broken Wrightington's collar-bone. Frank knew who did it, but the 'Silent Hinkey' never revealed the real truth.

"Yes, safer!" said his Lordship. "Yet what a woman! What a woman!" and here he broke off speech again. In which my Lady Betty Tantillion writes of a Scandal Scarce two years later, King William riding in the park at Hampton Court was thrown from his horse the animal stumbling over a mole-hill and his collar-bone broken.

"So, Varangian, thou art come at last, and is it to thy sloth or treachery that I am to impute my fate? Nay, answer me not! The stranger struck me over the collar-bone had we lived long together, or met often, I had done the like by thee, to wipe out the memory of certain transactions at the Golden Gate.

The blow had been sufficiently heavy to knock me back almost onto my horse's crupper, so that the officers and troopers who were following me thought I had been killed, and I would have fallen if my orderlies had not supported me. The dressing was very painful for the ball was embedded in the bone at the point where the upper arm joins the collar-bone.
