"It is dreadful, Jack, and it makes me feel sick and ill when I go into the infant-school. The clergyman's wife has opened a sort of soup-kitchen, and a hundred children get a bowl of soup and a piece of bread at dinner-time every day, and they sell soup under cost price to the women. Mr. Brook has given fifty pounds towards it."
I shall say no more of this, the most horrible sight of my life. The end came quietly, about six in the evening: and we buried the poor wretch that night in the orchard under the chapel wall. All that day, as you may guess, I saw nothing of the strange lady. And on the morrow until dinner-time I had but a glimpse of her. This was in the forenoon.
After the storm and conflagration of the second town, we took a brief rest, and then proceeded to capture and burn another, situated about a mile to the northward. This accomplished, we judged it to be dinner-time. Indeed, we had done work enough to ensure an appetite; and history does not make mention, so far as I am aware, of such destruction of cities so expeditiously effected.
The Judge was a polite and agreeable host, and he was particularly fond of dinner-time, when he would willingly have made all men partakers of his good appetite, good humour, and even of his good eating N. B. if this really was good but if the contrary happened to be the case, his temper could not well sustain it.
Boardman, perhaps she would have made a great fuss at dinner-time about eating the piece of sweet potato which had been served to her. She did not like sweet potato, and she liked the idea of having to eat it, whether she wanted it or not, still less, and the clouds began to gather on her face.
'I had my dinner, father, said Meg, after a little hesitation, 'with with Richard. His dinner-time was early; and as he brought his dinner with him when he came to see me, we we had it together, father. Trotty took a little beer, and smacked his lips. Then he said, 'Oh! because she waited. 'And Richard says, father Meg resumed. Then stopped. 'What does Richard say, Meg? asked Toby.
"No, ma'am; she says she remembers it being brought in the last time it was sent out to be cleaned, but we can't find it now. We turned the cupboard out just before dinner-time." "Are you sure that Henry hasn't had it to clean, and left it behind in the tool-house when he brought in the other knives?" "Yes, 'm; we've looked there."
Every morning, after our early breakfast, my uncle walked away to the farm, where he remained until dinner-time.
But it did not matter; it would get there before dinner-time. He was at Jordan's. She would come in half an hour. At any rate, she would be near. He had done the letters. She would be there. Perhaps she had not come. He ran downstairs. Ah! he saw her through the glass door. Her shoulders stooping a little to her work made him feel he could not go forward; he could not stand. He went in.
The painter was never seen till dinner-time, and his evenings were spent at the Cenacle among his friends. He read a great deal, and gave himself that deep and serious education which only comes through the mind itself, and which all men of talent strive after between the ages of twenty and thirty.
