"The following gentlemen were appointed the committee under the second resolution: Philip R. Fendall, Esq., Rev. Horace Stringfellow, Rev. Joshua N. Danforth, Rev. R. Randolph Gurley, Professor William Ruggles, Rev. President J.S. Bacon, Doctor Thomas Sewall, Rev. William B. Edwards. "The meeting then adjourned. "H.L. ELLSWORTH, Chairman "ISAAC S. TINSLEY, Secretary."
"If you imagine that you're like Claire Fendall," interjected Peggy, seething with indignation, "you're badly mistaken, that's all." But glad as Priscilla would have been to accept the comforting assurance she shook her head with decision. "It's exactly the same thing," she insisted. "But I really hope Why, Peggy, what's the matter?"
It was Amy who suggested later to Peggy that sometimes she thought there was such a thing as a girl's being too sweet. "I met Claire Fendall once when I went with Priscilla to a recital," Amy remarked. "And Oh, well, I'm not one of the people who like honey for breakfast every morning of the year." But the only reply this Delphic utterance called forth from Peggy was a reproachful pinch.
This produced great disquietude, and Ex-Governor Fendall planned an insurrection for the purpose of abolishing the proprietorship and establishing an independent republican government. The king was induced to issue orders that all the offices of the government in Maryland should be filled by Protestants alone; and so, again, the Roman Catholics were deprived of their political rights.
This rantipole colony, founded by Lord Baltimore, a British nobleman, was managed by his agent, a swaggering Englishman, commonly called Fendall, that is to say, "offend all," a name given him for his bullying propensities.
Some of the queer frequenters of the house were a little suspicious of me at first, and I was obliged to be very cautious indeed how I communicated with Straw or Fendall.
Lord Baltimore immediately acquiesced in the political change. On account of his instructions to his deputies to proclaim the new monarchs being delayed in their transmission, he was charged with hesitancy; and a restless spirit named Coode, an associate of Fendall in his insurrectionary movements "a man of loose morals and blasphemous speech" excited the people by the cry of "a popish plot!"
And I don't think she'd bother you girls a bit." "Bother!" cried Amy generously. "We need something to fall back on for rainy days, and Dorothy's a picnic in herself. Between her and Aunt Abigail we'll be entertained whatever happens." Priscilla, too, had suggested an addition to the party. "You've heard me speak of Claire Fendall, girls.
And Priscilla had received a twenty-page letter from Claire Fendall, declaring that it would be perfectly heavenly to spend two months anywhere in Priscilla's society, and that nothing in the world could possibly prevent her from coming. There had been no time during that week for lounging on porches, or swinging in hammocks.
At last, when I had followed seven of the thieves, and set 'em to rights that's an expression of ours, don't you see, by which I mean to say that I traced 'em, and found out where the robberies were done, and all about 'em Straw, and Fendall, and I, gave one another the office, and at a time agreed upon, a descent was made upon the public-house, and the apprehensions effected.
