Cranstoun came unexpectedly into the room, and insisted upon knowing the reason of my grief; which at last, after many tender persuasions on his part, I discovered to him. I told him my mother owed forty pounds, and as she durst not inform my father of it, did not know which way to get it. To this he replied, "I only wish I had as many hundreds: I will get it for you, my dear, to-morrow.
Scarcely had he spoken, when a second discharge from the same wall-piece that had killed Cranstoun passed through his throat.
This was contrary to the arrangement which permitted no Mass in the whole realm, except that of the Queen, when her priests were not terrorised. The godly brawled in the Chapel Royal, and two of them were arrested, two very dear brethren, named Cranstoun and Armstrong; they were to be tried on October 24.
To which I made answer, "No, Sir, that is impossible; since if they could make the noise, they could not the music." Mr. Stevens not giving much credit to what we affirmed, we immediately changed the subject of discourse.

Cranstoun know, that I should wait the next Sessions; but he must not come to his house till his affairs in Scotland were settled.

"Had Geerald doon this he would ha' maired his feenal treomph over the veellain," observed Cranstoun. "Na, na, Granville, our friend here has acted like a prudent mon, as well as a gaillant officer. Geerald, the boottle stands with you."
How came you, as she was put under your care, to let her get away? I was gone to dig a grave, and was sent for home; they told me she was gone over the bridge. Had you any talk with her about this affair? She declared to me that Captain Cranstoun put some powder into tea one morning for Mr. Blandy, and she turned herself about he was stirring it in the cup. When did she tell you this?
"Grown careless," he said. "Regular throwing away of his life." Careless Herbert might have been, but Julius wondered whether this might not be losing of the life to find it. Cranstoun or Cranky arrived, a charming old nurse, much gratified in the midst of her grief, and inclination to scold.
"Doone, Meeddlemore, doone," eagerly replied Cranstoun, and they joined hands in confirmation of the bet. This conversation had taken place during the intervals occupied by the movements of the right and centre columns along the skirt of the wood, to equidistant points in the half circle embraced in the plan of attack.
What's the use of 'a bloody war and a sickly season, that standard toast at every West India mess, if the juniors are to go off and not the seniors Cranstoun's the man we've booked." "Captain Cranstoun, I have the honor of wishing you a safe passage, and speedy promotion in Heaven," said Middlemore, draining off his glass. "Devilish good port this of yours.
