Only romantic," said Francis, grinning. "I tell you again, Marjorie, you have a fatal effect on people. Look at me a matter-of-fact captain of doughboys and the minute I see that you won't marry me stay married to me, I mean I elope with you in a coach and four!" "I don't think you ought to laugh about it," said Marjorie, sobering down and stopping short in her tracks.
Winterbourne was a man of imagination and, as our ancestors used to say, sensibility; as he looked at her dress and, on the great staircase, her little rapid, confiding step, he felt as if there were something romantic going forward. He could have believed he was going to elope with her.
He represented a chance for life when for three years I had been dead living and breathing yet dead as a woman. And that is the most terrible of all deaths. "We planned to elope. Don't ask me how I could consider such a thing. There is no answer possible. It wasn't a sane decision but I decided that I would. There was the craving to get away from things to try to start over.
So I asks ag'in whether you-all folks has any objections to me elopin' into Wolfville with my beloved, like I suggests. I ain't out to spring no bridals on a onprotected outfit, wherefore I precedes the play with these queries. "'But whatever's the call for you to elope at all? remonstrates Enright. 'The simple way now would be to round up this lady's paternal gent, an' get his consent.
Sometimes, if two young people are fond of each other, and there is no prospect of their being married, they may take riding horses and a pack horse, and elope at night, going to some other camp for a while. This makes the girl's father angry, for he feels that he has been defrauded of his payments.
"But, Arabella" her brow puckered worriedly "if no one knows, how are you going to do it?" "I'm going to write and tell him to come for me, and never let on to any one, an' we'll we'll what do you call it when they run away?" "Not elope, Arabella!" cried Elsie in dismay. "Yes, that's it. We'll elope," said Miss Arabella calmly.
Miss Perry, I will not deceive you about that. She was all but a stranger, and I had assisted her to elope. Her husband was hiding in the baggage car." "He would have thrown himself under the wheels if he had witnessed that ardent kissing! I confess that I hadn't done justice to your fascinations. And you were not her guardian, or anything like that?" "Certainly not.
"Why, you don't think that I am going to elope with a tinker, do you, cousin?" "I should think not; nevertheless, a tinker is no companion for Miss Mathews, dear cousin. Melissa, you have been most imprudent. How far you have told me the truth I know not; but this I must tell you, if you do not promise me to give up this disgraceful acquaintance, I will immediately acquaint my uncle."
If they would then speak, the strangulation would cease. In the mean time two females of adult age, and two male youths, were seized in the same manner. Unless confined, they would elope, and appear to all intents the victims of insanity. One of the young women eloped, fled to a lake which was covered with ice, was pursued by some of the ox teamsters, and carried back to the infirmary.
Can't you and I strike out for ourselves, May?" He had stopped and faced her in the excitement of their discussion, and her eyes rested on him with a bright unclouded admiration. "Mercy shall we elope?" she laughed. "If you would " "You DO love me, Newland! I'm so happy." "But then why not be happier?" "We can't behave like people in novels, though, can we?" "Why not why not why not?"
