I held his big, right hand between my own, and pressed it gently, for there was something in his one remaining eye that told me the end of all was near. "Goodbye, dear lad.... Goodbye, Captain Guest.
There was a brief silence they all looked at one another, but did not utter a word. "Well, goodbye, dear friends," Paklin exclaimed. "We must have bored you to death with our long visit. It is time for these gentlemen to be going, and I am going with them. Goodbye, thanks for your kindness." "Goodbye, goodbye, come again. Don't be on ceremony," Fomishka and Fimishka exclaimed together.
They had, on the day of their landing, ordered new uniforms, and had purchased a stock of underclothing. They were fortunate in being able to pick up swords and belts, and all were now ready for them and, on the fifth day after landing, they said goodbye to the governor, and sailed on board the Cerf. When twenty-four hours out the vessel lay to, being now on the track of ships bound south.
How can one be in doubt about what one has heard with one's own ears and seen with one's own eyes? "And yet you have been deceived, like so many others! The whistling northern and southern lights have never existed. They are only a creation of your own yearning for the mystical, accompanied by your own breath, which freezes in the cold air. Goodbye, beautiful dream!
Oh, rot!" said Senior. "I can't quite remember such a crawl as this, Jack; listen how the engine coughs." "If we can't get to the top of the incline what then?" asked Grim. "Go back, I should say." "To Lowbay?" "Yes. But while we do crawl there's no need to fret." "That would mean goodbye for the present to your place, old man?" "Yes. 'Twould be a horrid nuisance, wouldn't it?"
I must say that I was afraid that we should not be moving until the spring. Shall we go in and say goodbye to our fellows?" "Yes, we may as well; but mind, don't say where we are going to, only that we are ordered away. I don't suppose that the regiments will know anything about it, till within an hour of the time they march. There can be no doubt that it is a serious business.
But when the news came he would own neither to surprise nor to disappointment. "Goodbye, poor Academy!" I exclaimed, tossing over the bridegroom's eight-page rhapsody to Halidon, who had received its duplicate by the same post. "Now, why the deuce do you say that?" he growled. "I never saw such a beast as you are for imputing mean motives."
Alice was too young fully to understand the peril in which Ben was placed. She had kissed him goodbye when he ran to take his place with the others, and, with a light jest on his lips about her and Linna, he had snatched a kiss from the little Delaware's swarthy cheek.
You are, I perceive, one of those good-natured, speculating creatures, who are anxious to give hope and comfort to every one. The world has many like you; and it often happens, that when some good fortune does throw the means of doing good into your power, you turn out to be a poor, pitiful, miserable crew, without actual heart or feeling. Goodbye, now.
But I had by this time come fully to understand that gold possessed absolutely no value for these people, except as a plaything for the children; and the result was that when at length I bade the man goodbye, and gave the order to trek, the fellow was glad to let me have the whole at my own price, and I secured it upon very favourable terms.
