I had studied the fac-simile of that pretty cipher, till it was well impressed upon my memory; and could therefore recognise it at a glance. I did not even break open the envelope till we were upon the road.
Joseph Hume, I believe, is destined to fill one of these blanks; but I remarked that the larger part of the portraits, already hung up, are of men of high rank, the Duke of Sussex, for instance; Lord Durham, Lord Grey; and, indeed, I remember no commoner. In one room, I saw on the wall the fac-simile, so common in the United States, of our Declaration of Independence.
"This," I replied, "is an American rifle, and a very good one it is, I assure you." "But we cannot fight with only one, and unless another is produced precisely like it, some other weapon will have to be resorted to," cried the officer, with a slight expression of joy. "I am aware of that," I replied coolly, and to his astonishment I presented him with a fac-simile of the first.
Mirsky gets hold of Ritter, and they agree to get your drawings and photograph them. Ritter is to let his confederate have the drawings, and Mirsky is to bring them back as soon as possible, so that they sha'n't be missed for a moment. Ritter habitually carries this Malacca cane, and the cunning of Mirsky at once suggests that this tube should be made in outward fac-simile.
"Yes," answered Retaux, with a sigh, "I do know about it, for I wrote it at the direction of the countess, and added the signature." "Had you a copy?" "Yes, the signature of the fac-simile." "In the printed letter was there the subscription which you inserted?"
Two years later, that is, in 1459, Faust and Schoeffer produced an almost fac-simile reprint of the Psalter, and in the same year Durandi Rationale Divinorum Officiorum, the latter with an entirely new font of metal type the first cast from Schoeffer's punches which some, in the erroneous belief that the Psalter was printed from wooden types, have asserted to be the first dated book printed with metal type.
A fac-simile sketch of the course of the Niger, made by an old Somonie, who had been seven times at Tombuctoo, and is now going the eighth. Ba Nimma rises in the Kong mountains South of Marraboo; it passes one day's journey South of Sego; and having received a branch from Miniana, empties itself into the lake Dibbie. It is not quite half so large as the Niger.
In the course of the first few pages, however, his chirography, on the one hand, shows traces of the old English chancery-hand, and, on the other, degenerates into a careless, cursive, modern-seeming style, of which fac-simile No. 2, "England," is a striking instance.
Collier have us believe that this also was introduced in the British Museum? We have chosen the word "begging" for fac-simile not merely because of the marked character of its chirography. It has other significance. Mr. Who that is familiar with the corrections in Mr. "And crook the begging hinges of the knee"; Now it is remarkable that the majority of the changes proposed by Mr.
Three years afterwards it again disappeared, its luminous journey being witnessed by some Italian shepherds. Its present position is about a mile from the Adriatic, at Loretto, just as the angels placed it six hundred years ago. Millions of pilgrims visit it from all parts of the world." For the aerial chapel of Bonsecours, a fac-simile has been obtained.
