"Thet feller I reecognized ... hit war old Hump Doane's own boy ... Pete Doane." Parish Thornton straightened up as though an electric current had been switched through his body. His face stiffened in amazement and the pain of sore perplexity. "Air ye plum onmistakably shore, Jerry?" he demanded and the little man nodded his head with energetic positiveness.
So also was the Phrygian Attis called Saviour, and the Syrian Tammuz or Adonis likewise both of whom, as we have seen, were nailed or tied to a tree, and afterwards rose again from their biers, or coffins. In Peru and among the American Indians, North and South of the Equator, similar legends are, or were, to be found. See for a considerable list Doane's Bible Myths, ch. xx. Hist.
Several times, in the course of an hour, during which the schooner and the two whales drifted farther and farther apart, the calf strove vainly to swim. Then it set up a great quivering, which culminated in a wild wallowing and lashing about of its tail. "It is the death-flurry," said the Ancient Mariner softly. "By damn, it's dead," was Captain Doane's comment five minutes later.
Doane's abrupt departure, and still more so on the third. She seemed nervously expectant when the postman brought the mail, and depressed when each consignment contained no letter for her. On the fourth day this depression was so marked that her father asked the cause. "What ails you, Gertie?" he inquired. "You look as if you just come from a funeral. What's wrong?"
The young man sighed and murmured that if he wished he could repeat a charge never before made against a Cape Cod minister, but and he shut his lips more obviously. The other men, who were in the plot, grinned, and this added the last touch to Captain Doane's indignation. He sprang to his feet. One of his peculiarities was a constant misuse of words, and now, in his excitement, he outdid himself.
She grew gayer and more gay, more careless in her manner and more slangy in her speech. Mr. Holway continued to call and Cousin Percy to dance solicitous attendance. John Doane's name was never mentioned in his fiancee's presence. She would not speak, or permit others to speak, of him. And then Mr. Holway ceased to call.
In 1833 his connection with Goodrich appears to have been temporarily broken, as "The Token" for 1834, which appeared that fall, contains nothing by him. For 1835 he contributed to it "The Haunted Mind" and "The Mermaid, A Revery," now known as "The Village Uncle," anonymously, and "Alice Doane's Appeal" as by the author of "The Gentle Boy."
On his way back from Hump Doane's house that morning Parish Thornton made a detour for a brief visit upon Jase Burrell, the man to whose discretion he had entrusted the keeping of Bas Rowlett's sealed confession. From the hands of that faithful custodian he took the envelope and thrust it into his breast pocket.
She put the matter aside to think over later, and, if she could remember the words, to repeat them to her father for his explanation at a time when he wasn't hazy and far away from realities. "What does your father do?" Suzanna's companion resumed after a moment. "He weighs nails in Job Doane's hardware store," said Suzanna, "and he sells washboards to ladies. My father's a great man.
Bishop Doane's eloquent advocacy of the measure also led to happy results. In this chapter on the Triennial Council of the Church held in San Francisco, we must not omit to make mention of the United Offering of the Woman's Auxiliary to the Board of Missions. The women of the Church specially devoted to its missionary work had been gradually increasing their forces and activities and offerings.
