This impatience was clearly unreasonable, for even in four more years, 1804, we find the two clocks were still in hand. Two years later, in 1806, the Board determined to take vigorous action by asking the Bursar to call upon Crosthwaite. This evidently produced some effect, for in the following year, 1807, the Professor had no doubt that the clocks would be speedily returned.
We followed, and for several days lived in reserve among the scattered farms and houses north of Estaires, over the ruins of which Crosthwaite, an officer of mature service, who had just joined the Battalion, was appointed Town Major. His task was not entirely enviable.
The following circumstances have been authenticated by the signatures of Provosts, Proctors, Bursars, and other College dignitaries: In 1793 the Board ordered two of the clocks at the observatory to be sent to Mr. Crosthwaite for repairs. Seven years later, in 1800, Mr. Crosthwaite was asked if the clocks were ready.
Ah, did I not remember Annie Crosthwaite? poor, fragile, pretty spring flower, that some cruel hand plucked and threw away, and men trod on the bemired blossom as it lay in the mire, and women drew their skirts aside to keep from touching the torn, soiled petals? "Yes, Sam," I said, in a low voice.
Annie Crosthwaite and I will gang thither our lane: but there'll be three, says he, `for the blessed Lord Himsel' will come and eat wi' us, and we wi' Him, for He receiveth sinners, and eateth with them. And he did it, for a' they tald him the Bishop wad be doun on him. `Let him, says he, `and he shall hear the haill story': and not ane o' them a' wad he let come that morn.
Byron replied, acknowledging all this, but saying he had a right to honor the name of Southey, if he chose, just the same. No taint of excess or folly marks the name of Southey; his life was filled with good work and kind deeds. His name is honored by a monument in the village of Keswick, and in Crosthwaite Church is another monument to his memory, the inscription being written by Wordsworth.
This question White Pigeon asked as we sat in the dim quiet of Crosthwaite Church, down in the village. I did not attempt to reply people do not ask questions expecting, necessarily, to have them answered. We ask questions in order to clarify our own minds. The warning blast of the coach-horn was heard, and we went out into the sunshine.
There's a hantle o' folk makes that blunder, though." Away went Sam for the kettle. When he brought it back, he said, "Miss Cary, ye'll mind Annie Crosthwaite, as lives wi' auld Mally?"
KESWICK is a market town, in the county of Cumberland, and parish of Crosthwaite, and is situated on the south bank of the Greta, in a large and fertile vale, about a mile from Derwent Water. The town consists only of one street, and comprises upwards of two thousand inhabitants. Some manufactures are carried on, including linsey-woolsey stuffs and edge tools.
I think He means as Daniel and me is to go hand-in-hand through the valley like as we walked up to our wedding in Crosthwaite Church. I could never guide th' house without Daniel, and I should be feared he'd take a deal more nor is good for him without me. 'But me, mother, thou's forgetting me, moaned out Sylvia. 'Oh, mother, mother, think on me!
