It meant arduous and continual riding, and a horse with any defect was worse than useless because the speed of the gang had to be the speed of the slowest horse in the lot. It was some time before the two long riders had completed the grooming of their horses and had gone down the hill and into the house.
"I remember a fellow of about that age brought out the horse, and as he seemed to me a shrewd fellow, and had evidently taken great pains in grooming Robin, I gave him a crown. I thought he needed it, for his clothes were old and tattered, and he looked as if he hadn't had a hearty meal for a week.
The horses backed, and laid their ears flat, and David, grooming one of them, gentled him and inquired of him confidentially what was the matter. "Oh, David, come out here! please come out!" called Letty breathlessly. "I've got to see you."
It had been past midnight when they came home, and it was a quarter to one when William Carley came into the parlour. He was in a unusually communicative mood to-night, and had been superintending the grooming of his horse, and talking to the underling who had waited up to receive him.
When we had ridden in, saluted, and reported at the guard, we saw the guns drawn up in line at the end of the yard, and we went into grooming and ate and slept, hardly waiting for the morning and the long regimental call before the réveillé; the notes that always mean the high road for an army, and that are as old as Fontenoy. That next morning they woke us all before dawn long before dawn.
The guides-plates above were still jammed fast in the guides, but the first blow had been struck. They spent the rest of the day grooming the donkey-engine, which stood immediately forward of the engine-room hatch. Its tarpaulin, of course, had been stolen, and eight warm months had not improved the working parts.
The common belief that the Fruit of Islam was preparing for racial aggression has never been substantiated. The Muslim Girls' Training Classes taught cooking, sewing, housekeeping, and etiquette. After Fard's disappearance, the leadership passed on to Elijah Muhammed, formerly Elijah Poole, whom Fard had been grooming as his successor.
The hideous goggles and the rumpled hair could not disguise the strong lines of his face which she saw in profile the heavy brows, the straight nose, the thin, rather sensitive lips and the strong, cleanly cut chin. Properly dressed and valeted this queer creature might have been made presentable. But his manners! No valeting or grooming could ever make such a man a gentleman.
We don't want to charge him openly with the murder and he can't be convicted without evidence. What we want to do is to hold a threat of exposure over him to fix him so that he won't ever be able to run for an office in this state as he intends to. For they are grooming him, right now. And the governor is back of the scheme to break him you know that.
