At last she was informed that each of, them had been allowed sixty livres in the month, and that arrears had been paid them for nine months. Their debt to her was above three thousand livres but the day after she asked for payment they decamped, and one of them persuaded her daughter, a girl of fourteen, to elope with him, and to assist him in robbing her mother of all her plate.
You laugh, you cry. You say Aurora has gone away with Gerald. Please collect yourself and tell me what it means. 'Gone away with Gerald. How do you mean gone away with him?" "I mean they have eloped, or as good as." "No, no; people don't elope when there is neither an inconvenient husband, nor unamenable parents, nor any possible reason why they should not have each other if they wish to."
"No," said she, "but I have something very important to say to you. I want you to get up and go away with me, and take Margery." Mr. Archibald sat up in bed. He was now in full possession of his senses. "What!" said he, "elope? And where to?" "Yes," said she, "that is exactly what I mean, and we will go to Sadler's first, and then home." "Do you mean now?" said he.
When I rallied from the sudden check, which had nearly thrown me through the window, I gave myself up for lost: here I was vis a vis to the very hall-door of the man whose daughter I was about to elope with, whether so placed by the awkwardness and blundering of the wretches who drove me, or delivered up by their treachery, it mattered not, my fate seemed certain; before I had time to determine upon any line of acting in this confounded dilemma, the door was jerked open by a servant in a sombre livery; who, protruding his head and shoulders into the chaise, looked at me steadily for a moment, and said, "Ah! then, doctor darlin', but ye're welcome."
Stubbs's old mezzotint of Eclipse hangs over my desk, and Herring's portrait of Plenipotentiary, whom I saw run at Epsom, over my fireplace. Did I not elope from school to see Revenge, and Prospect, and Little John, and Peacemaker run over the race-course where now yon suburban village flourishes, in the year eighteen hundred and ever-so-few?
"Probably the early spring weather," added Boots. "You're twelve, aren't you?" "Thirteen," said Drina gravely. "Almost time to elope with me," nodded Boots. "I'll do it now," she said "as soon as my new gowns are made if you'll take me to Manila. Will you? I believe my Aunt Alixe is there " She caught Eileen's eye and stopped short. "I forgot," she murmured; "I beg your pardon, Uncle Philip "
In this town as many people have to sign the marriage contract as signed our Declaration of Independence: all the civil authorities, all the clergy, all the relatives; if every man in the telephone book isn't a witness, the marriage doesn't 'take. So, we must elope!"
"Commend me to the piety of a young fellow and a damsel that consult to elope!" said Bianca. "No, no, Madam, my Lady Isabella is of another guess mould than you take her for. She used indeed to sigh and lift up her eyes in your company, because she knows you are a saint; but when your back was turned "
He could not know that I came near dying, in spite of my apparent coldness. From that moment I made up my mind to elope. That evening, on the roof, I threw myself tremblingly into his arms. "My dear," I asked him, "have you the capital necessary to pay damages to old Puff?" "I have no other capital," replied the French Cat, laughing, "than the hairs of my moustache, my four paws, and this tail."
Chris was the first to arrive, for the trucks with the cannon were those farthest away from the bridge, and he was able to run for some distance along the line before making for the elope, and therefore travelled faster than his companions, who had farther to run on broken ground. In half a minute they rushed up almost together. "Throw yourselves down," Chris shouted; "we shall have it directly."
