Coryston sprang up impetuously and came to stand over his mother, his hands on his sides. "Now look here, mother. Let's come to business. You've been plotting something more against me, and I want to know what it is. Have you been dishing me altogether? cutting me finally out of the estates? Is that what you mean? Let's have it!" Lady Coryston's face stiffened anew into a gray obstinacy.
Your ma says you are to go to bed directly." "No, no, I'll put myself to bed!" "Come, sir, please do, like a good boy Master Pinney won't go without you, and I must put him to bed while they are dishing up. Come, sir, I've got a mince-pie for you." "And some oysters Bobby said I should have some oysters!" "Yes, yes; come along, sir."
Having satisfied our curiosity with this cursory inspection of what we had come so far to see, hunger compelled us to look about with great anxiety for the cook; and you may fancy our delight at seeing that functionary in the very act of dishing up dinner on a neighbouring hillock.
From time to time over 2,197 actors have had to walk home on account of Pete's cold feet. Pete can develop a severe case of frosted pave pounders quicker than any angel that ever had to dig for the oatmeal money. Pete is an Ace all right the Ace of Chumps! His long suit when he isn't dishing out his autobiography is to stand around a race track and bark at the bookmakers.
Poor Cotsdean felt that the smell of the dinner made him sick though he would have liked to eat had he been able the smell of the bacon which he loved, and the sight of the small children whom he loved still better, and poor Sally, his wife, still red in the face from dishing it up. Sally was anxious about her husband's want of appetite.
As the evening drew on, the women retired into their cottages to prepare supper for their husbands and sons, whose return home they were now expecting. Already the corves which took them down to their work in the early morning must be on their way up to the surface, and it is time to have the savoury messes ready for dishing up.
"Take off your hat, Livy," interrupted Aunt Madge, "for I hear Deb dishing up the dinner, and Marcus looks blue in the face with cold and hunger." And at this reminder Olivia hurried. Mrs. Broderick always gave them the same dinner, a roast fowl and a piece of boiled ham, with plum pudding and mince pies to follow, but Deborah's cookery always gave it a different and most delicious flavour.
You surely must be jesting, in dishing up this long rigmarole, about Miss Houghton's accomplishments! After what I have told you, I cannot conceive how you can fail to understand, that I am not in a mood for jesting.
There were no others. Come to think of it, she had heard a postman's knock when she was dishing up the dinner, but had supposed it to be next door. It sounded like next door. Gilbart took the letter upstairs with him. The address was in Casey's handwriting. "Queer fellow, Casey." He broke the seal in the little bay window.
"Then," said she, coming to look at the great bars, with a fork in her hand, for she was in the middle of dishing up, "then, if you promise me always to come home by the road, and never through the coppice you will do so, won't you?" "Why should I?" I inquired, turning sharply to look at her.
