John Goss, appears to have for purpose to teach the young idea how to spout, and that purpose, I dare say, it will accomplish if something is not done to prevent. I know nothing of the matter myself, a strong distaste for forensic eloquence, or eloquence of any kind implying a man mounted on his legs and doing all the talking, having averted me from its study.
I presently arose and with an impish betrayal of the poverty of rhyme and the plethora of sentiment, repeated the thing relentlessly. "I do think," said Miss Goss gently, "that if you tried, my child, you might manage the rhymes just a little better." "But if you're born in Michigan," I protested, "how can you possibly make 'Eva' rhyme with 'never' and 'believer'?"
Bill Goss had gone on ahead and notified his wife that she was wanted. It may as well be added here that Mrs. Goss was as coarse and unprincipled as her husband. When Dora's mind was once more clear she found herself in a much larger cabin than that she had formerly occupied. She lay on a couch, and Mrs. Goss, a fat, ugly-looking creature, sat beside her.
Goss, Hébert, and Lartet followed in the same track, and added many valuable facts, and a host of other laborers in the same field have since appeared.
"You're leaving the college, aren't you, Miss Keeves?" asked Bella. "Yes, dear," replied Mavis. "Going to be married?" asked Mr. Goss, who secretly admired Mavis. "I'm going to earn my living; at least, I hope so," said Mavis. "Haven't you anything to do, then?" he asked. "Nothing settled," Mavis answered evasively. "I suppose you wouldn't care for anything in the theatrical line?"

Then she started up the dock as swiftly as her trembling limbs would carry her. But fate was against her, for as she gained the very head of the dock, Bill Goss appeared, followed by Baxter and Mumps. "Hullo, who's this?" cried the sailor. "The gal, sure as you are born!" "She is running away!" called out Mrs. Goss. "Stop her!" "Here, this will never do," roared Dan Baxter.
But such has been the industry of modern naturalists to give the widest name to those who have devoted their time to the search for, and description of, fossil insects that the remains of thousands of species have been identified, and the time of their appearance upon the earth approximately fixed. The latest contributor to this elegant branch of the study of fossils is Mr. Herbert Goss.
Goss has done anything to retard that blessed time when the Bourke Cockrans shall cease from troubling and the weary be at rest he is an enemy of his race. "What!" exclaims the thoughtless reader I have but one "are not the great forensic speeches by the world's famous orators good reading? Considering them merely as literature do you not derive a high and refining pleasure from them?"
So we got wondering what Old Goss was doing at Yarmouth, and what was keeping him, and whether he'd come aboard drunk or sober, and whether he'd blow us up, and whether he'd rope's-end us, which was as likely as not, or perhaps more.
