It may be presumed that, by the influence of his mother's connections through her first marriage, he was sent to Greenwich School, and thence into the navy, where he began his career under Captain Michael Everett at the outbreak of war in 1755.
"Four of your predecessors," remarked the Secretary, "made exactly the same promise, but none of them got us the treaty." "Probably none of them remained in Amapala, either," retorted Everett. "Two did," corrected the Secretary; "as you ride into Camaguay you see their tombstones." Everett found the nine-day mule-ride from the coast to the capital arduous, but full of interest.
He further confounded the prosecution by having Judge Mann admit that in the Spokane fight a prisoner arrested on a city charge was always lodged in the city jail and one arrested on a county charge was always placed in the county jail a condition not at all observed in Everett. Moore also brought out the facts of the death of Chief Sullivan so far as they are known.
When asked by Attorney Moore he gave an affirmative answer to this pertinent question: "You knew that the matter of the enforcement of the city ordinances of Everett was peculiarly within the powers of the police department of the city, didn't you?" Owen Clay was then called to the stand.
I shouldn't think then that I was such a such a restraint to you." But this was not what Mr. Wharton desired. "I shouldn't like that, my dear. Of course he would know that you were in the house." "Upon my word, I think you might meet an old friend like that," said Everett. She looked at her brother, and then at her father, and burst into tears.
Why, he told me Cobre dated from 1578, when Palacio wrote of it to Philip the Second, not knowing that in that very letter Palacio states that he found Cobre in ruins. Is it right a man as ignorant " Everett interrupted by levelling his finger. "You," he commanded, "keep out of those ruins! My dear professor," he continued reproachfully, "you are a student, a man of peace.
But even as Everett was speaking, the aged author of the Declaration breathed his last at Monticello, and in the afternoon of that same day Adams died also, murmuring, it is said, with his latest breath, and as if with the whimsical obstinacy of an old man who hated to be beaten by his ancient rival, "Thomas Jefferson still lives." But Jefferson was already gone.
He dared not write her a letter, although he had gone so far as to begin one to her, but in disgust at himself had torn it up. The fact that Horace was unhappy pleased him, now that they had become antagonistic. The mystery clinging to Fledra haloed her for Everett beyond the point of interest. "Ann," he said suddenly, "you haven't told me much about those children I mean of their past lives."
When we read the roll of American novelists, we see that nearly all of them began as writers of Short-stories. Some of them, Mr. Bret Harte, for instance, and Mr. Edward Everett Hale, never got any farther, or, at least, if they wrote novels, their novels did not receive the full artistic appreciation and popular approval bestowed on their Short-stories. Even Mr.
At twenty-one Edward Everett was professor of Greek Literature at Harvard, and James Russell Lowell had published a whole volume of his poems; at twenty-two Charles Sumner had attracted the attention of some of the famous men of his day, William H. Seward had entered upon a brilliant political career, while Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry D. Thoreau occupied a conspicuous place in literature.
