You always rode him on the snaffle." "That boy Pat needs a good licking, Leila." "But Dixy don't. The fact is, Uncle Jim, you're neglecting the stables for politics." "Is that your own wisdom, Miss Grey? What with the weight of wisdom and years, you're getting heavy. Try a chair." "No, I'm quite comfy. It was Josiah who told me. He often comes up to look over the colts, of a Sunday "
Now she seemed to him more timid, more childlike than usual; but long thinkings are not of the psychic habits of normal youth, and Dixy recovered his attention. He satisfied the well-bred horse, who of late had been losing his temper in the society of a rough groom, ignorant of the necessity for good manners with horses.
Remember me to any of the old crowd you see; also to your young sister. Yours truly, Thomas Hooker. P.S. By the way, see what your French dixy says for doughnut, and let me know by return. We're going on to Switzerland in a day or two. Paris, August 6. Dear Gus, The dictionary word of yours won't wash here. We've tried it all round Paris, and you might as well talk Greek to them.
"Why, Uncle Jim, I wouldn't swim if John wasn't allowed too; I just couldn't. I'm going to bed but, please, don't let Pat ride Dixy." "I can attend to my stables, Miss Grey. John won't die of heat for want of a swim. You don't seem to concern yourself with those equally overbaked young scamps in Westways." "Uncle Jim, you're just real mean to-night.

I thought it best to take my bags with me to the buffet, as they might have humbugged about with them if I'd left them in the carriage. They ought to make English compulsory in French schools. The duffers in the buffet didn't even know what a dough-nut was! Not even when Jim looked it up in the dixy and asked for noix a pate.
It certainly is odd that this subordinate in the romance should find a counterpart in one William Dixy, appointed ensign of the Salem military company which John Hawthorne commanded, in 1645.
"It isn't John it's John and the horses I mean John and Dixy. Patrick rides Dixy for exercise every day." "Well, what's the matter? First it's John, then Dixy, then John and Dixy, and then John and Dixy and Pat." The girl saw through the amusement he had in teasing her and said with gravity, "I wish you would be serious, Uncle Jim. I want five minutes of uninterrupted attention."
"It has been my happy, unbroken rule to take nothing from any soldier who served in this sad war oh! on either side. I have made, I hope, some friends. The Colonel asked to-day about a horse Dixy I think and when could he ride. You may imagine my pleasure. He will get well, but you must be patient. I leave him in competent hands, and in the fall I mean to come back and shoot your woodcocks.
All my nerves were jumping about, and my mind was like a lot of flying fragments flying about very fast.... "They shelled us again next day and our tea dixy was hit; so that we didn't get any tea.... "I slept thirty hours after I got back here. And now I am slowly digesting these experiences. Most of our fellows are.
