From the Cincinnati of Massachusetts he received the following address: "Amidst the various gratulations which your arrival in this metropolis has occasioned, permit us, the members of the Society of the Cincinnati in this commonwealth, most respectfully to assure you of the ardor of esteem and affection you have so indelibly fixed in our hearts, as our glorious leader in war and illustrious example in peace.
My dentist told me once a woman came to him and insisted on having two of her teeth covered with gold. No reason at all. All right the way they were. FOURTH YOUNG MAN: Hear you got out a book, Dicky. 'Gratulations! College stories? Not college stories. FOURTH YOUNG MAN: Pity! Hasn't been a good book about Harvard for years.
Helen had not seen her uncle since the death of her father; and, as soon as the first gratulations were over, she retired to an apartment to weep alone. On Cummin's being presented to Lord Ruthven, the earl told him he must now salute him as Lord Badenoch, his brother having been killed a few days before in a skirmish on the skirts of Ettrick Forest.
"'Gratulations!" said a harsh voice, seemingly almost in their ears. They looked up, startled. Blake stood close to them, at the end of the table, with his soft hat in his half-raised left hand, and his shaggy fur coat hanging limp from his bowed shoulders. He stood with perfect steadiness.
Thus equipped, the new-made chief sallies forth to receive the gratulations of his admiring friends and relatives, among whom the coat is ultimately divided, and probably finishes its course in the shape of a tobacco-pouch.
Then softly breathing his bugle, in a moment he was surrounded by a number of men, whose rough gratulations might have reawakened the alarm of Helen, had she not still heard his voice. There was graciousness and balm-distilling sweetness in every tone; and she listened in calm expectation. He directed the men to take their axes, and cut away, on their side of the fall, the tree which arched it.
After this Dunbar tunes forth a song of welcome to "his ain Lord Thesaurair," in which terror at this functionary's inopportune absence since quarterday we may suppose is lost in gratulations over his return. "Welcome," he cries "Welcome my benefice and my rent And all the lyflett to me lent, Welcome my pension most preclair, Welcome my awin Lord Thesaurair."
And when the poor perishing sinner throws himself into Jesus' arms, what gratulations among these happy spirits! "There is joy in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons."
The Anglo-Danes might trouble him somewhat, but rebellion would become a weapon in the hands of a schemer like William. He would bristle all the land with castles and forts, and hold it as a camp. My poor friend, we shall live yet to exchange gratulations, thou prelate of some fair English see, and I baron of broad English lands."
The great day ends with a banquet to the prominent citizens by the political leader. The slander that republics and communities are ungrateful is hurled in the faces of the base caitiffs who have given it currency. Behind all the gratulations of conventionality in the unprinted, unreported, unconventional world the devotion of Esther Lockwin is universally remarked upon.
