I'll send for Johnny, tell him how it happened, 'pologize to him, and knit him a real nice pair of yarn gallowses, jest like your pa's; and they never do creak." "Yes, ma," said Matilda, brightening up; "but let me knit 'em." "So you shall, honey: he'll vally them a heap more than if I knit 'em. Cheer up, Tildy: it'll all be right you mind if it won't." Sure enough, it proved to be all right.
The rebellious young sarpint of a son, who allus pulled a lusty oar, has chased them two older ones into the deep water of the channel, where a pistol shot can't be heard ashore, and he expected the property to be his'n. But there are gallowses yet, thank the Lord!" "Mrs.
The newsboys would be shriekin' 'murder! at every crossin', and every corner you turned, it would be 'hev a paper, mum, with the latest proceedings about the trial? And to crown all, you'd come home, half distracted, to find the children playing with little gallowses, and askin' when pa was goin' to murder somebody, till you felt chilled to the very marrow of your bones.
Tildy and Johnny were married, and Johnny's gallowses never creaked any more. Milton, in his famous description of the woman Delilah, sailing like a stately ship of Tarsus "with all her bravery on, and tackle trim," is particular to note "an amber scent of odorous perfume, her harbinger."

She knows how to deal with such gallowses; and they will keep her to cook their dinner. Firm, my lad, let us go and embrace them.
The time is passing when we performed this task of pure lustration, as Keats might have called it, in the cellar or the back hall, more fully, but not completely, dressed, coatless, our waistcoats rakishly unbuttoned or vulgarly upstairs, our innocent trousers hanging on their gallowses, our shoes on our feet, and our physical activity not altogether unlike that demanded by a home-exerciser to reduce the abdomen.
Dennis Kearney. Kearney is a man too well known in California, but a word of explanation is required for English readers. Originally an Irish drayman, he rose, by his command of bad language, to almost dictatorial authority in the State; throned it there for six months or so, his mouth full of oaths, gallowses, and conflagrations; was first snuffed out last winter by Mr.
The civilization of the country, in one sense at least, is retrogressive, and the people, as they cannot go 'up, betray a disposition to go 'down."
