I delight in the analecta, the collectanea, as I may call them, of the preceding day's dinner, which appear on such occasions And see, there is Jenny going to ring the dinner-bell." Be this letter delivered with haste haste post-haste! Ride, villain, ride, for thy life for thy life for thy life. Ancient Indorsation of Letters of Importance. Leaving Mr.
Marjory was just trying as best she could to stop the barrel rolling and to help Alan out of it, though she was so weak with laughing that her hands seemed to have no strength in them, when the doctor's voice said, "Come, children, didn't you hear the dinner-bell?" They all, including Peter, straightened up as if by magic. Dinner already! They had never given it a thought.
Croquet was over Clarissa had taken part in a regular game this afternoon and the players were strolling about the gardens in couples, in an idle half-hour before the first dinner-bell, when Miss Lovel met Lady Laura with another lady. They were sauntering slowly along one of the sunny gravel walks there was every charm in this Italian garden except shade and stopped on seeing Clarissa.
I would have kissed Mamma then and there, but at that moment the dinner-bell rang. "No, no, leave your mother alone. You've said good night quite enough. These exhibitions are absurd. Go on upstairs."
When this was all arranged Lord Vincent dismissed the valet with the words: "Now be at ease, Frisbie; for as long as you are faithful to me I will be silent in regard to you."

We saw the stately equipage of Lady Ledbitter driven down the avenue. "Thank Heaven!" said Lance. "Now Frances is free. She will have gone to her room.

Phil decided to linger in the woods no longer. No matter if her arms and her back did ache she must hurry back to tell Madge of the apparition she had seen. "Phil Alden! Phil Alden!" Phyllis heard a clear voice calling to her. Then she heard the violent ringing of their cherished dinner-bell. "Here I am to the left," she shouted back. "Come here and help me carry these things."
After a while Bob Holliday and Harry Weathervane came to the door and importuned Jack to come with them. It was lonesome at home; it would be good fun to celebrate the downfall of the old master's cruel rule, so, taking down an old dinner-bell, Jack went off to join the rest.
Ishmael remained upon the quarterdeck, gazing out upon the stormy glory of the sea and sky until he was interrupted by the most prosaic, though the most welcome of sounds that of the dinner-bell. Then he went below.
All seemed happy and enthusiastic, though it was curious to see how promptly all of them ceased gazing when the dinner-bell rang, and how many turned from the great thundering crystal world of ice to look curiously at the Indians that came alongside to sell trinkets, and how our little camp and kitchen arrangements excited so many to loiter and waste their precious time prying into our poor hut.
