The tradition says that when the Imlah arrive, all the Indians must obey their teaching, and take care that the said Imlah do not again leave their country, for if so they, the Indians, would disappear from the land. When Mr. Grubb and his helpers first landed, they were immediately asked, "Are you the Imlah?" and to this question they, of course, answered yes.
Why, it will gleam through the holes and make thee look like a jack-o'-lantern!" "To think," ejaculated the lord De Vere, rather to himself than his companions, the best of whom he held utterly unworthy of his intercourse "to think that a fellow in a tattered cloak should talk of conveying the Great Carbuncle to a garret in Grubb street!
Grubb might grace a conversazione on the steps or at the gate. She was not one of those napkin people who hide their talents, or who immure their lights under superincumbent bushels. Whatever was hers was everybody's, for she dispensed her favours with a liberal hand. She would never have permitted a child to suffer for lack of food or bed, for she was not at heart an unkind woman.
At this moment the door opened, and there entered a complex odour of hairwash and perfumery a collar which must have been nearly related to a cuff, and a pair of tight patent-leather boots, all attached to and somewhat overpowering a young man.

Sir Howard Grubb finished in 1893 a 28-inch achromatic for the Royal Observatory, Greenwich; the Thompson equatoreal, mounted at the same establishment in 1897, carries on a single axis a 26-inch photographic refractor and a 30-inch silvered-glass reflector; the Victoria telescope, inaugurated at the Cape in 1901, comprises a powerful spectrographic apparatus, together with a chemically corrected 24-inch refractor, the whole being the munificent gift of Mr.
I know you ladies have discovered something about the 'specs' and I'd like pretty well to hear what it is." "You are wrong in one way, Mr. Grubb. These goggles do tell us who dropped them, if our surmises are correct." "You don't say?" "Yes. Do you recall the little experience we had on the station platform at Compton on the evening of our arrival?"
They had nearly reached the middle of the pond, when Harriet stopped swimming. "I am afraid we shall have to turn her around. Tommy will persist in opening her mouth. We mustn't drown her," said Harriet. Jane righted their tow with a jerk. "Those girls, those girls!" muttered Miss Elting, turning a laughing face to Janus Grubb. "Well, I swum!" he answered, nodding.
This man told them he was present at a meeting at Mühlheim held by Sarah Grubb, about thirty years before; and that, although ninety years old, he recollected the words with which she concluded her discourse: "By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another."
The janitress can send Edith to me as soon as she comes, and I will leave her with Lisa while I run back here to consult with you and Helen. I shall telegraph for Dr. Thorne, also, to be sure that this sleep is as natural and healing a thing as it appears to be. Mrs. Grubb was surprised, even amused, at Rhoda's exciting piece of news, but she was perfectly tranquil.
