Also that the old man was frail, bent, shrivelled, and civil spoken, that the son was "a big soft gomeral of a fellow," that both the women were sandily flaxen-haired, with broad, flat cheeks and light eyes, and that two of the children resembled them, while the third a girl a trifle older was a dark-haired, disconsolate-looking little thing, "wid her face," Mrs.

"But to be sure, we shall have the time to speak of these, since your father is so good as to make me for a while your inmate; and the GOMERAL begs you at this time only for the favour of his liberty," "You give yourself hard names," said she. "Mr. Doig and I would be blythe to take harder at your clever pen," says I. "Once more I have to admire the discretion of all men-folk," she replied.

No, no," said Alan, "it's no you that's to blame, it's me." I asked him why. "Why," said he, "I have proved myself a gomeral this night. For first of all I take a wrong road, and that in my own country of Appin; so that the day has caught us where we should never have been; and thanks to that, we lie here in some danger and mair discomfort.

"For if he isn't a great stupid gomeral and an ass, just get me one. Why, if he was worth the dust blowin' along the road, he'd purvint of his own child bein' put upon." "Och, they have him frighted," said Mrs. Quigley, with scornful emphasis. "They won't let him take an atom of notice of her, they're that jealous.

David, it is quite true what I tell you, that my daughters regard you with the most affectionate playfulness." "The gomeral is much obliged," said I. "And was not this prettily done!" he went on. "Is not this Highland maid a piece of a heroine?"

If that had not informed him the mischievous smile of Young Islay in Gilian's direction would have done so. He half turned his face to Gilian, and with shut lips whispered angrily: "Thumbs! thumbs!" he said. "God forgive you for a gomeral!"

Either they like the man, and then a' goes fine; or else they just detest him, and ye may spare your breath ye can do naething. There's just the two sets of them them that would sell their coats for ye, and them that never look the road ye're on. That's a' that there is to women; and you seem to be such a gomeral that ye cannae tell the tane frae the tither."

Dauvid proposed a vote o' thanks to Sandy; an' you wudda thocht a' the steam-engines atween this an' Glesca had gotten into oor washin'-hoose, wi' their whistles on full-cock. The noise was something terriple. I had to pet my fingers in my lugs, an' rin. Was ever a woman so provokit wi' a ramstam, dotrifeed gomeral o' a man?

"Gomeral yourself and save your penny," said Mick, whose temper was not at its best after his long day of hungry discontent. "And the divil a call you have to be onaisy about the crathur follyin' you anywheres. Stayin' where she is she's apt to be, until she gets the chanst of goin' out to say wid the turn of the tide, and that's like enough to happen her."

They would be on with the new love. Don't you see, you born gomeral, that the person, man or woman, who deserts the inconvenient A. I put an A. B. case falls in love with your agent B., and your B. is, by the nature of the thing, more ineligible than A. too poor. A babe could see that. You disappoint me, Merton. 'You state, said Merton, 'one of the practical difficulties which I foresaw.
