Soon after the capture of the City of Mexico an armistice had been agreed to, designating the limits beyond which troops of the respective armies were not to go during its continuance. Our party knew nothing about these limits. As we approached Cuantla bugles sounded the assembly, and soldiers rushed from the guard-house in the edge of the town towards us.
"Myself, the vice-president" pointing to the cripple "and yonder gentleman" designating the cowled and masked figure of Maximilian, who stood near me. "Could I have a private conference with you?" he asked. "Yes," replied the president, somewhat eagerly; "come this way." All four moved to a side door, which seemed to lead into another subterranean chamber; the cripple carried a torch.
Thompson advocates allowing the watch to run continuously, and enters the time of such a stop, designating it for convenience by the letter "Y." In the case we are considering, two kinds of materials were handled sand and clay.
The consul Lucius Opimius took his measures to put down by force of arms the insurrection for the overthrow of the republican constitution, as they were fond of designating the events of this day.
The administration had not taken the trouble to ascertain whether he was a lawyer, but knowing he sought a position, had given him the first one at hand. This was rather an oversight, as the law requires such appointees to be members of the bar. On another occasion the legal requisite was filled by first declaring the aspirant a lawyer and then designating him for the post.
"I couldn't for the life o' me help it," she explained as they crowded round her. "When I had the door opened who did I see but himself" designating Brian "with his impident arm round Elleney's waist the bould little scut!" "Sure, I didn't ax him to put it there," protested Elleney, beginning to cry; "I didn't rightly know what he was doin'."
"What do you hask for it?" asked the planter indifferently, designating the house by a wave of his whip. "Ask for w'at?" said Injin Charlie. "De house! What you ask for it?" "I don't believe," said Charlie. "What you would take for it!" cried the planter. "Wait for w'at?" "What you would take for the whole block?" "I don't want to sell him!" "I'll give you ten thousand dollah for it."
A lodge is entitled to select a name for itself, to be, however, approved by the Grand Lodge. But the Grand Lodge alone has the power of designating the number by which the lodge shall be distinguished. By its number alone is every lodge recognized in the register of the Grand Lodge, and according to their numbers is the precedence of the lodges regulated.
The book-marks, if designating simply the relative order of the volumes, permit the books to be moved along, as accessions come in, from shelf to shelf, as the latter become crowded. This does not derange the numbers, since the order of succession is observed. For small town libraries no elaborate system of classification can properly be attempted.
I remember that, on the way from Paris to Toulon, he called my attention to ten places suitable for giving battle.... It was a souvenir of his youthful travels, and he described to me the lay of the ground, designating the positions he would have taken even before we were on the spot."
