Then " "Yes, but how about this big Flanders?" protested Frederick. "He's already grown-up and "

"And what's more," added the playwright, "I have faith in Amy." By this time Mr. Bingle had unbounded faith in the young actress, and said so with considerable fervour. Whereupon, the jubilant author suggested that they send for Miss Fairweather at once and acquaint her with the glorious news. But Mr. Bingle shook his head. "No, we can't do that," he said, looking at his watch.

The Receiver called me to him and asked after a matter which we had spoken of before. Then he made me known to his companion, who was a Mr. Fairweather, a merchant out of Boston. "The Lord hath given thee a pleasant dwelling, friend," said the stranger, snuffling a little through his nose. From his speech I knew that Mr.

The mansion-house gentry of Rockland were pretty fairly divided between the little chapel, with the stained window and the trained rector, and the meeting-house where the Reverend Mr. Fairweather officiated.
