Garnett's comment was hurled into the surrounding darkness; but his companions heard it and laughed. "I expect to return in six months' time," said Gerard; "possibly sooner. Another six weeks later, and 'The Mercury' will probably need a new proprietor.
But she didn't go until Jim settled so much a month on her through old Lawton who used to amuse himself at Garnett's a good deal in those days, and who was one of her best friends.
The principal design of these two works is sufficiently indicated in their titles. Dr. Garnett's Tour through the Highlands and Part of the Western Islands of Scotland. 1800. 2 vols. 4to. Agriculture, manufactures, commerce, antiquities, botany, and manners, are treated of, though not in a masterly manner. Travels in Scotland and Ireland, 1769-72. Chester, 1774. 2 vols. 4to.

One afternoon, three months later, Rainham, finding himself in the neighbourhood of Parton Street, took the occasion of knocking at Lady Garnett's door, and found, somewhat to his surprise, that the two ladies were returned.

These figures are taken from "Regimental Losses in the American Civil War," by Col. Wm. F. Fox, Albany, 1881; the loss in each instance includes few or no prisoners, save in the cases of Garnett's brigade and of the Third Westphalian Regiment. NEW ORLEANS, the 20th April, 1783. Sir
Garnett's supple and faithful renderings of Turgenev, Tolstoi, Dostoievski, and Tchekov have, for example, a great following but we do not adventure much beyond the French and the Russians; whereas I learn that English versions of hundreds of other foreign books are eagerly bought in America. Such curiosity seems to me to be very sensible.
