Youth, probably, held at an unwelcome task; and, more than likely, Howat ... October, in seventeen fifty.
The entries were put in all sorts of handwritings; evidently any one who liked had a hand in managing the books. In the record of the subscriptions in kind there was no note of their money value. But, excuse me, I thought, the rye which is now worth one rouble fifteen kopecks may be worth two roubles fifteen kopecks in two months' time! Was that the way to do things?
Suddenly, the likeness in the handwritings struck me; and I made a very careful comparison." He opened the packet, and took out the two papers, which he offered to Barron. "I think, if you will compare the marked passages, you will see at least a striking resemblance." With a shaking hand Barron refused the papers.

Kendricks entered a younger son of an English duke, and I contributed the hyphenated surname of a New York swell, and between us we soon had all the dances on Miss Gage's card taken by the most distinguished people. We really studied probability in the forgery, and we were proud of the air of reality it wore in the carefully differenced handwritings, with national traits nicely accented in each.
And out upon the lover who does not recognize his mistress's hand at the first glimpse ever he has of it, without post-mark or other information to aid him! He was no analyst of handwritings, yet it came to him instantly that this note was from a pretty woman.

Clapp, with the best of characters and handwritings, had been able very soon after his master's disaster to find other employment for himself. "Such a little fish as me can swim in any bucket," he used to remark, and a member of the house from which old Sedley had seceded was very glad to make use of Mr. Clapp's services and to reward them with a comfortable salary.
