Captain Hallett, after some final instructions to Zacheus concerning the turning lower of one of the lamps and a last order for stillness, gave the command. "All ready! Heave ahead!" Miss Hoag leaned back in her rocking-chair and closed her eyes. Primmie drew a long breath and the first bars of the "Sweet By and By" were forcibly evicted from the harmonica.
"Oh, especially with me, eh?" he repeated. "Well, what's the 'especially with me' for? If you think I'm any more to blame than the rest, you're mistaken. I tell you when you and me and Cap'n Jim and all hands of us got the Wellmouth Development Company goin' it looked like a cinch. How was I to know?" "I tell you, Raish, I don't want to talk about it." "And I tell you, Jeth Hallett, I DO want to.
He looked like one hard to drive and equally hard to turn, the sort from which fanatics are made. Primmie scuttled away to the dining room. Galusha rose. "Good-afternoon, Captain Hallett," he said. Jethro regarded him from beneath the heavy brows. "You know Mr. Bangs, Cap'n Jeth," said Martha. "You met this mornin', didn't you?" The light keeper nodded.
"Game?... I ah pardon me, I don't know that I quite understand, Mr. Pulcifer." "Don't you? Well, I don't understand neither. But I cal'late to pretty quick. What did Jeth Hallett mean last night by sayin' that he'd sold his four hundred Development a couple of months ago? What did he mean by it?" Martha Phipps was about to speak. Cabot, too, leaned forward. But Galusha raised a protesting hand.
The peasantry, or the lowest laboring classes of European countries, are now, and will remain perhaps for a century to come, the only conservators of the distinctive national costumes of bygone generations. During the conversation at the table, a farmer exhibited a head of the Hallett wheat, which he had grown on his land. I never saw anything to equal it, in any country in which I have travelled.
Lisle and Hallett were carried down in hammocks, for both were completely worn out by the hardships of the campaign and, as there was no limit to the numbers of carriers that could be obtained, they gladly acquiesced in the decision of the medical officer that they ought to be carried.
The defeat of General Cass in 1848 changed the policy of the leaders of the Democratic Party in Massachusetts. These leaders were David Henshaw, Charles G. Greene, and as an assistant Benjamin F. Hallett. The first two had controlled the patronage of the general government very largely during the administrations of Jackson, Van Buren and Polk.
Hallett Taylor disapproved of her. I thought there would be some such outcome when I heard that she was to be consulted." "Mrs. Taylor's name was not mentioned," answered Pauline, in astonishment. "I had no idea, Selma, that you regarded this as a personal matter. You told me that you had seen Miss Bailey but once." "I am interested in her because because I do not like to see a cruel wrong done.
It was agreed, after much consultation, that Hallett and Jack should be the hares, that three minutes' start should be allowed, and that everyone who liked to should be a hound. Simmons was to carry the horn and "blow the true trail" whenever it was lighted upon. Half a dozen more were selected to test the side tracks, as there were certain to be plenty of false scents started.
Galusha put his hand to his forehead. "Oh, yes, yes," he said. "Yes, of course. That was very simple. I was ah as one may say, coerced by my guilty conscience. Captain Hallett had learned I don't know precisely how, but it is quite immaterial that Miss Phipps had, through me and to you, Cousin Gussie, as he supposed, sold her shares. He wished me to sell his. I said I could not.
