She was standing at a window, listlessly staring at some houses opposite, and the unlovely strip of garden which lay between her and the houses. Bridget Cookson was sitting at a table a little way behind her, mending some gloves. The sisters had been four days in London.
But what is the regiment at Backsworth?" and as Charlie named it, "Oh, what fun! That's where Laurie Cookson exchanged. He will be sure to send us cards for everything." "At Dunstone we never used to go to garrison gaieties," said Cecil, gravely. "Oh! I'm a military pariah," said Rosamond, hastily. "Who are the land-owners?" continued Cecil.
She and Sir William often spend the evening there, said Captain Marsworth, quite aware from Miss Farrell's frequent glances in his direction that he was not in her opinion doing his duty with Miss Cookson. 'Will it take us long? said Bridget, the vivacity of her look dying out. 'As long as you please to stay! laughed the Captain, drily.
But at the Temple Show this year Norman C. Cookson, Esq., exhibited Catt. William Murray, offspring of Catt. Mendellii × Catt. Lawrenceana, a lovely flower which gained a first class certificate. It was only four years old. The quickest record as yet is Calanthe Alexanderii, with which Mr. Cookson won a first-class certificate of the Royal Horticultural Society.
It was dedicated November 15, 1826, when the Reverend John Cookson was installed as pastor. He was dismissed August 5, 1827, and was succeeded, June 4, 1828, by the Reverend Enoch N.

For the latter had made great exertions, and were tiring fast.
How stupid of me! What on earth made me put them in that pocket. He drew out the letters and the telegram. Bridget said again 'Give it me, please! I know it's for me! And she tried to snatch it. Farrell's face changed. He disliked Bridget Cookson heartily, mainly on Nelly's account, and her rude persistence nettled a temper accustomed to command. He quietly put her aside.
So how he dragged himself the distance he did, the doctors can't imagine. And the peasants near the frontier from whom we have got what information we have, have no knowledge at all of how he and his Belgian guide finally got through the German lines. But when they reached our lines, they were both, as Dr. Howson wrote to Miss Cookson, in German uniforms.
And so Sir Philip Francis, the author of a book called Junius, the writer of which was never discovered," "why, that's a bull;" Mr Cookson could not help chuckling as he made a dash and a correction, "`and deaf Burke," "`I never heard that he was deaf oh, that was another man, a prize-fighter, ho, ho, ho, ahem!" "`and Burke were very much ashamed of themselves, and were hissed, and never alluded to the subject, from which originated the phrase of "burking the question,"" "Pooh, pooh, never make shots like that:" "`and Sir Elijah Impey was found Not Guilty, and all his property was taken from him to pay the lawyers with."
