Then she wrote: "Anthony Eustace Failing, the subject of this memoir, was born at Wolverhampton." But she wrote no more. She was fidgety. Another drop fell from the roof. Likewise an earwig. She wished she had not been so playful in flinging her golosh into the path. The boy who was overthrowing religion breathed somewhat heavily as he did so. Another earwig. She touched the electric bell.
"Would you allow one of your retainers to look under the table and see if I left a golosh there and if so, tell him to leave it at Swain's, to be returned by his messenger on Monday? I must have been tight, and the golosh not tight enough, and I appeared at the Duchess's with one golosh and my trousers tucked up. H.R.H. was much concerned about it, and said, 'It's all that Punch dinner!"
"Everybody rolled into one," he agreed eagerly; "Daddy and Mother and the Clergyman and you." "And me?" she asked tremulously. "Rather!" the boy said vehemently; "as you are now, all rabbity and nice." Aunt Emily slowly removed one big golosh, then waited. "Cleaned up and young," cried Judy, "and smells delicious like flowers and hay " "And soft and warm " "And sings and dances "
This was the mayor of the town, a merchant, Eremeyev by name, a millionaire and an old inhabitant of N . Flinging wide his arms and shrugging at the cold, he skipped along, knocking one golosh against the other, evidently in haste to get out of the wind. Half-way he suddenly bent down, stole up to some lady, and plucked at her sleeve from behind.
The mire in which he wallows now is but a type of the moral mire in which he will wallow hereafter. The feeble little hand lifted at this instant to smite his companion, half in earnest, half in jest, will be raised against his fellow-beings forevermore. Golosh Street as I will call this nameless lane before alluded to is an interesting locality.
Winking with his red, frozen eyes, Yegor Ivanitch stamped on the floor with his golosh boots and swung his arms together like a frozen cabman. "Such a damnable frost, worse than any dog!" he went on talking, smiling all over his face. "It's a real affliction!" "It's healthy," said the governor; "frost strengthens a man and makes him vigorous. . . ."
Herr Hippe's shop is the largest in Golosh Street, and to all appearance is furnished with the smallest stock. Beyond a few packing-cases, a turner's lathe, and a shelf laden with dissected maps of Europe, the interior of the shop is entirely unfurnished. The window, which is lofty and wide, but much begrimed with dirt, contains the only pleasant object in the place.
"And is positive that if we go on looking we shall find exactly what we're looking for." Aunt Emily removed the other golosh a shade more quickly than the first one. She kicked it off. The stiffness melted out of her; she smiled again. "Well," she began when Judy stood on tip-toe and whispered in her ear some magic sentence. "Dawn!" Aunt Emily whispered back.
When she looked round he skipped away, and probably delighted at having succeeded in frightening her, went off into a loud, aged laugh. "Lively old fellow," said the governor. "It's a wonder he's not skating." As he got near the pavilion the mayor fell into a little tripping trot, waved his hands, and, taking a run, slid along the ice in his huge golosh boots up to the very door.
He could not understand how it was the military man in the red cap was not ill at ease, sitting beside her and looking at her healthy, smiling face. When after drinking some water he went back to his carriage, the Finn was sitting smoking; his pipe was wheezing and squelching like a golosh with holes in it in wet weather. "Ha!" he said, surprised; "what station is this?"
