A few years later, John Colin Dunlop, the author of a History of Roman Literature which ought to be better known among the teaching fraternity, drew attention to the same passage. So striking is his comment that I will transcribe it in full.
I remember her while she lived at Ellisland, and better still as the wife of Adam Armour, the brother of bonnie Jean." CXX.-To MRS. DUNLOP. ELLISLAND, 4th March 1789. Here am I, my honoured friend, returned safe from the capital.
"How do you do, Dunlop?" said Anne, putting out her hand. "Say 'howdy' and ask your visitor to take off her hat," Martha suggested. "You come on and tell me a story," said Dunlop, seizing Anne's hand. She resisted his effort to drag her to a chair. "I said 'how do you do' to you. And you haven't said 'how do you do' to me," she reminded her host. "I want to do and be did polite."
"We're rather used to danger," smiled Tom placidly. "In fact, just a little of danger makes us feel that we're getting more enjoyment out of life." "Do you think it a good plan to take up the invitation of these gentlemen, Timmins?" inquired Mr. Dunlop. "It's the safest thing you can do, sir," answered Joe Timmins. "We'll start back, now," proposed Tom.
I am, after all my tribulation, Dear Sir, yours, CVI. To MRS. DUNLOP, OF DUNLOP. Mauchline, 27th Sept. 1788. I have received twins, dear Madam, more than once; but scarcely ever with more pleasure than when I received yours of the 12th instant. To make myself understood; I had wrote to Mr.
Even regarded as an early attempt in the "picaresque" manner, it is abortive and only half organised. The subject of the English "Heroic" Romance, in the wide sense, is one which has been very little dealt with. Dunlop neglected it rather surprisingly, and until Professor Raleigh's chapter on the subject there was little of a satisfactory kind to be found about it anywhere.
It was a consciousness of this change of feeling which led Allan Dunlop, on his return for a time to his political duties at York, to write to Rose in the following strain, and to assure her of the complete cordiality that now existed, and was sure to continue to exist, between her father and himself: "YORK, November 30th, 1827.
Now, Dunlop, you must positively lie down; you know Johnson said it was mad in you to get on horseback till your bone had set firmly, and that it was ten to one in favor of inflammation coming on again. You have much to go through yet."
We agreed that Dunlop and I should by turns lie so as to command the stairs, while the other kept with Ned on the other side of the dome. The enemy divided their guns, and put them on each side also. Lying down, we presented the smallest possible mark for them; but for some hours it was very hot. Nine out of ten of their shot, just went over the dome altogether.
J. A. Dunlop Proudfoot, Advocate. The Proudfoots must be rich, for no advocate could look to have much business in so remote a quarter; and John hated them for their wealth and for their name, and for the sake of the house they desecrated with their presence. He remembered a Proudfoot he had seen at school, not known: a little, whey-faced urchin, the despicable member of some lower class.
