Hamon he wass a very old man and he died very sudden. He wass just knocking a nail in the pigsty and he drop down and died." "Poor old man!" "He wass very old and he wass a good man. No one ever said any harm of old Mr. Hamon." "Then if no one else dies we'll say the following Wednesday," said Graeme. "And if well, if anything happens to prevent it, then we must go across to Guernsey and get Mr.
The managers of the Sark Mines, seeking a special man for somewhat special circumstances, had applied to Botallack for assistance, and Stephen Gard came to Sark as the representative of many hopes which, so far, had been somewhat lacking in results. But, as old Tom Hamon had predicted, he very soon found that he had laid his hand to no easy plough.
And Julie Hamon sprang to her feet with blazing eyes, pointed a shaking hand at Gard, and screamed: "Murderer! Murderer! Murderer!" Stephen Gard walked slowly down the road towards Plaisance in the lowest of spirits. This strange people amongst whom he had fallen, possessed, in pre-eminent degree, what in these later times is known as the defects of its qualities.
Nor did the Hamon case appear to be entirely exceptional in that breezy borderland. The moment the town had received the news that Clara Smith was free, newsboys rushed down the street shouting, 'Double stabbing outrage near Oklahoma, or 'Banker's throat cut on Main Street, or otherwise resuming their regular mode of life.
If Grannie's scheme were carried out, therefore, she and Mrs. Hamon would become owners of the farm. Tom would be there on sufferance and might be kept within bounds or kicked out. Old Tom would have something more to throw into the holes at Port Gorey. And Nance and Bernel could be adequately provided for.
Last, but not least, the man who probably better than anyone else understands the psychology of the ATTENTATER is M. Hamon, the author of the brilliant work, UNE PSYCHOLOGIE DU MILITAIRE PROFESSIONEL, who has arrived at these suggestive conclusions: "The positive method confirmed by the rational method enables us to establish an ideal type of Anarchist, whose mentality is the aggregate of common psychic characteristics.
One night, after a successful run, he returned home very drunk, and discovered more than usual cause for resentment in his wife's reproachful silence. He struck her, wounding her to the flowing of blood, and she picked up her boy and fled along the cliffs to Beaumanoir where Jeanne Falla lived, with George Hamon not far away at La Vauroque.
"'Jour, madame!" and he whipped off his hat and passed on into the house. "That was Madame Tom, I suppose, who was leaning over the gate, as I came in," he said, as they ate. "I expect so," said Mrs. Hamon. "She generally seems to have time on her hands." "When Tom's not there," snapped Grannie. "Got her hands full enough when he is."
But the things that stand out now most clearly in my memory are the homecomings and the partings and all they meant to me, but more especially the homecomings the eager looking forward from the moment our bows pointed homewards; the joy of seeing my mother and grandfather and dear old Krok and George Hamon Uncle George by adoption, failing that closer relationship which Providence had denied him sympathetic listener to all our childish troubles and kindly rescuer from endless scrapes; the biting intensity of longing to meet Carette again, and to find out how things were with her and how things were between us, a longing that taught me the meaning of heartache.
George Hamon and Amice Le Couteur, the Sénéchal, from La Tour, were just coming down the lane, and every man carried such arms as he could muster. "They're coming!" I shouted, and Amice Le Couteur, panting with his haste from the north, took command in virtue of his office, since Peter Le Pelley, the Seigneur, was away in London. "How many, Phil Carré?" he asked.
