"Does that disturb you?" "A little. He carries it so far as to be annoying." "Circumstances may change with you both." "I hope they may with me," said Herbert. "I don't want James to come down in the world, but I hope to rise." The next day Cameron was honored by a special call from Squire Leech, who left an invitation for the young collegian to take tea with him the following afternoon.
After this, he adds an ingenious question upon the apparently parallel case of a freeholder swearing himself worth 40s. per annum as a qualification for an electoral vote: ought not he to hold himself perjured in voting upon an estate often so much below the original 40s. contemplated by Parliament, for the very same reason that a collegian is not perjured in holding a fellowship, whilst, in fact, he may have four or five times the nominal sum privileged by the founder?
This was the only fact which Mr. C adduced, bearing on his opinion of K ; otherwise, it seemed to be one of those early impressions which a collegian gets of his fellow-students, and which he never gets rid of, whatever the character of the person may turn out to be in after years.
" I have a very poor opinion of that kind of a mind which does well in American politics," said the pro- fessor, speaking as a collegian, " but I suppose there may be something in it." " Well, at any rate," decided Mrs. Wainwright. " At any rate-" At that moment, Marjory attired for luncheon and the drive entered from her room, and Mrs.
Ingalls, of Kansas, a tall, slim collegian "the bluejay of the plains" clad in blue from head to foot, and with a bright blue ribbon encircling his slender throat, stood somewhat back of the seats. Senator Voorhees' form towered in the shadow of the cloak-room.
Shortly after breakfast, Cameron was told that Squire Leech wished to see him. "Good-morning, Mr. Cameron," said the squire. "This is an early call." "Not too early, sir," said the young collegian. "The fact is, I have called on unpleasant business." "Really, sir, I am sorry to hear it." "It is about the Carter boy who is in your employ."
And the day finally arrived when they were brought to light. In each of the cases the suffering and heart-break of the mothers and fathers was pitiful and beyond recovery in this world. That was one of the indirect consequences. One of the young men, whom I had known as a bright, attractive collegian, was sent to prison, eventually, in spite of all his family could do.
He had been glad enough to put the elder George in a good private school, and a commission in the army for his son had been a source of no small pride to him; but for little George and his future prospects the old man looked much higher. He would make a gentleman of the little chap, a collegian, a parliament man a baronet, perhaps. He would have none but a tip-top college man to educate him.
I must finish the portrait of the collegian with all its lights and shadows by the help of the same friends from whom I have borrowed the preceding outlines. He did not care to make acquaintances, was haughty in manner and cynical in mood, at least as he appeared to those in whom he felt no special interest.
In the earlier stages of her existence, she was handed down in a literal and prosaic sense; it being almost a part of the entrance footing of every new collegian to nurse the child who had been born in the college. 'By rights, remarked the turnkey when she was first shown to him, 'I ought to be her godfather.
