Doctor Elnathan Todd, for such was the name of the man of physic, was commonly thought to be, among the settlers, a gentleman of great mental endowments, and he was assuredly of rare personal proportions. In height he measured, without his shoes, exactly six feet and four inches.
I do not know whether it came out of my arms or my legs or my head." "I know where the very best gold there is in you is located, Elnathan," smiled the old man. "It is your heart that is gold, my boy." Two months later Elnathan was a clerk at twenty-five dollars a month. "Now we're fixed, Uncle Chris!" he cried, when he told the news. "You and I can live forever on twenty-five dollars a month."
Kirk cannot spare the time to build at present," said the squire. "Then why doesn't he hire rooms from Elnathan Perkins, as you just recommended to me?" "They wouldn't suit him," said the squire curtly. "He has set his mind on this house." "Squire Davenport," said Mrs.
June 10. I went this morning with Rebecca to visit Elnathan Stone, a young neighbor, who has been lying sorely ill for a long time. He was a playmate of my cousin when a boy, and was thought to be of great promise as he grew up to manhood; but, engaging in the war with the heathen, he was wounded and taken captive by them, and after much suffering was brought back to his home a few months ago.
"How easy it is to make others happy, and ourselves also!" she said, turning to me, with the tears shining in her eyes. August 8, 1678. Elnathan Stone, who died two days ago, was buried this afternoon. A very solemn funeral, Mr.

He wuz close. He had left The Little Maid in the finest hotel in the city, so he said.
An expression of patience grew on the kind old face. He felt it to be a great pity that six hundred dollars could not be made to go farther. And there was a wistfulness in the glance he cast upon the boy. Elnathan was, as yet, only half awake. The little room and the taste of honest independence had done their best. Were they to fail? The old man began to economize. His mittens wore out.
