It seemed that, on seeing the two figures, Severance had at once left the piazza, and, with an instinct of common-sense that was surprising, had crossed the garden, scaled the wall, and looked in at the window of Paul's little cottage, where the man and his wife were quietly seated at supper, probably after a late fishing-trip.
He sat looking respectable and feeling lonely, by a cup of coffee, till Claire dropping the highly unreal smile with which she had been listening to the elderly beau's account of a fishing-trip he hadn't quite got around to taking slipped into a chair beside him and begged, "Are they looking out for you, Milt?" "Oh yes, thank you." "You haven't been to see me." "Oh no, but Working so darn hard."
Thornton," he remarked, by way of jest. "I'm on a fishing-trip," explained the Duke, blandly. And the conductor, who knew that the siding had no fishing water within ten miles of it, went away chuckling in order to applaud the joke of a man of power. A few hours later the two were let off at the siding and the train hurried on. There was a farm-house near the railroad.
It was about the middle of July, I believe, that Tish received the following letter: Madam: Learning that you have decided to take a fishing-trip in Canada, I venture to offer my services as guide, philosopher, and friend.
If the chairman felt that he was being put under guard and espionage, his face did not betray it. He took leave of the General, and escorted out his associate committeemen. "Reminds me of the time Uncle Stote Breed went with the boys on a fishing-trip," remarked the Duke, after they were gone.
"Why, Monsieur LeConte says he'll take six of us out in his catboat tomorrow for a fishing-trip on the Gulf." "Hum," drily. "And I'll get Natalie and her cousins." "Yes," still more drily. Annette chattered on, entirely oblivious of the strainedness of the men's adieux, and still chattered as they drove through the pines.
Bingle stayed at home, and contrived to love her good little husband more and more as each narrow day went by, winter and summer, year in and year out, and not once did the iron of discontent enter her soul. Some day, when they could really afford it, they were going away for a month's fishing-trip in the wilds of Maine, but all that could wait.
Then he set about deceiving him by an offer to buy the Sea Fox and pay what he believed the Indian would consider a fabulous price. It was a fatal mistake. The Indian had no real idea of the value of his sloop. It had come to him as payment for his share of a successful fishing-trip to The Banks years before, and he had become attached to that craft.
I am sure of this, at least, that I should rather be a steamship than a sailing vessel, that only goes when a wind blows. A recent writer tells in one of his books of an experience he had as a boy when he went on a fishing-trip with his father. They were wading along in brooks with their rubber-boots on.
On board was, amongst a very agreeable company, a gentleman bound for New Zealand on a fishing-trip, who told me such marvellous tales of his fishing prowess in Scotland that I put him down for one of the biggest liars on earth. More of him afterwards. Also on board was a young English peer, Earl S , a very agreeable man, whose company I continued to enjoy for the greater part of this tour.
