Susan Lanham got hold of this retort, and took pains that it should be known all over the village. When Greenbank once gets waked up on any question, it never goes to sleep until that particular question is settled. But it doesn't wake up more than once or twice in twenty years. Most of the time it is only talking in its sleep.
"Well, don't you do it any more. It's very wrong to fight. It makes boys brutal. A girl with ability enough to teach the Greenbank Academy can take care of herself, and she doesn't want her scholars to fight." "All right," said Bob. "But," he muttered, "I'll thrash him all the same, and more than ever, if he ever says anything like that again." Greenbank was awake, and the old master had to go.
And since her emancipation, she had but wandered in the English lakes with her uncle and aunt and Samuel Greenbank, and so had come to Arranstoun like any other tourist to see this famous castle still inhabited after eleven hundred years.
"Do you tell that stupid Jack, that if he doesn't want to offend me so that I'll never, never forgive him, he is to bring his slate and pencil over here after supper this evening. And you'll come, too, with your geography. Yours truly, Susan Lanham, Professor of Mathematics and Natural Science in the Greenbank Independent and Miscellaneous Academy. Do you hear?" "All right."
The Snare of the Devill Discovered: Or, A True and perfect Relation of the sad and deplorable Condition of Lydia the Wife of John Rogers House Carpenter, living in Greenbank in Pumpe alley in Wappin.... Also her Examination by Mr. Johnson the Minister of Wappin, and her Confession. As also in what a sad Condition she continues.... London, 1658. Another tract against the Baptists.
If these pigeons had only come on Saturday instead of on Monday, Mr. Ball might have taught the Greenbank school until to-day, that is to say, if he hadn't died or quite dried up and blown off meanwhile.
The whole situation struck him as delightful, and he laughed gaily, while he suggested: "You are perhaps rather a difficult charge?" Miss Delburg resented this at once. "What an idea! How would you like to marry Mr. Greenbank, or stay with Aunt Jemima for four years!" "Well, you see, I can't contemplate it, as I am not a girl!"
"We wish to get married on Thursday so please be quick about the consent, as Uncle Mortimer wants me to marry his nephew, Samuel Greenbank, who I hate. Agree, sir, the expression of my sentiments, the most distinguished "Sabine Delburg." "P.S. I will want all my money, 50,000 dollars a year I believe it is, on Friday morning." Then she looked up with pride. "Don't you think that will do?"
"I've discussed the nightly takings of a theatre with Ettrick," he whispered, when Manders arrived at half-past eleven as vigorous and high-spirited as if he had just got out of bed; "the Dardanelles expedition with Gaisford, the plays of Synge with George Oakleigh, 'The Bomb-Shell' with Vincent Grayle, memories of Jessie Farborough with Deganway, 'The Bomb-Shell' with Grierson, Ibsen with Harry Greenbank, and 'The Bomb-Shell' with Donald Butler.
Michael accepted the implied appreciation. "What is Mr. Greenbank, then?" The silver laugh rang out again, while she jumped up and peeped from the window into the courtyard. "Samuel he's only a thing! Oh! Uncle and Aunt would be so angry if they could see me here! And I expect they are all in a fine fuss now to know what has happened to me!
