"Act 3d, Sir R., Sir P. and O. J. 2d, Y. P. and Company, Y. R. O. R. 3d, Y. H. and Maria Y. H., O. R. and Young Harrier, to borrow. "Act 4th, Y. P. and Maria, to borrow his money; gets away what he had received from his uncle Y. P. Old Jer. and tradesmen. "Lady Teaz.
As I approached the stranger, I saw that he was a seafarer. "Fine night, sir," I said in salutation as I passed him. "Ay, very fine. What way is the wind, my lad?" "Sou'-sou'-west," I replied, looking up at a few flecks of white cloud in the clear sky. "Are you going on to Stromness? If so, I will walk along with you. That's a fine bird you're carrying. What do you call it?" "A hen harrier, sir.
"Why don't you get one?" Marrier suggested. "Do you really think I could?" asked Carlo Trent, as if the possibility were shimmering far out of his reach like a rainbow. "Rather!" smiled Harrier. "I don't mind laying a fiver that Mr. Machin's dressing-gown came from Drook's in Old Bond Street." But instead of saying "Old" he said "Ehoold." "It did," Edward Henry admitted. Mr.
The Victor had her first lieutenant and five men killed, and her captain and twenty-five wounded; nine of whom died shortly after. Holland, which in reality, though not yet in name, was now a French province, had a moderately strong squadron in India. Two frigates had been taken since Sir Edward's arrival, the Maria Riggersbergen, by the Caroline; and the Pallas, by the Greyhound and Harrier.
The shipping, however, did not escape; and in the two nights of the 23rd and 24th of July, the boats of the Harrier, Captain Storey, destroyed in the harbour of Nystad forty-seven vessels, amounting to nearly 20,000 tons. On the 6th July the first shot was fired at Cronstadt, from a gun slung on board a timber barge, by Captain Boyd.
This inalienable habit of saving, as an end in itself, belonged to the industrious men of business of a former generation, who made their fortunes slowly, almost as the tracking of the fox belongs to the harrier, it constituted them a "race," which is nearly lost in these days of rapid money-getting, when lavishness comes close on the back of want.
On the 5th of February, the Harrier parted company off the island of Rodrigues, in a very heavy gale, in which the unfortunate Blenheim and Java were seen to make repeated signals of distress. They were never again heard of! The possibility that the ships might have run on shore induced Sir Edward to send the Admiral's son with the Greyhound frigate in search of his lamented parent.
Save as a dandy, however, and the harrier of subordinate officials, the writer of the annals of Trinidad may well pass him by. So then it may be seen what, by mere freaks of Chance the ruling deity at Downing Street the administrative experience of Trinidad had been from the departure of that true king in Israel, Sir Arthur Gordon, up to the visit of Mr. Froude.
"No; it was flying after a peewit, and the dog caught it. Willie Hercus thrawed its neck." "Well, well, that's most amazing. How I wish I'd been with you. I'd rather hae caught a harrier than a hundred sea trout." "Did ye get some good fishing at the Bush, sir?" I asked, changing the subject. "Oh, ay, very good, very good; thanks to those hooks o' yours, Halcro.
Miss C.B. Carey records one in the November number of the 'Zoologist' for 1874 in the following words: "In the May of this year an adult male Marsh Harrier was found in Herm. Unfortunately it got into the hands of some person who, I believe, kept it too long before bringing it over to be preserved, so that all that remains of it is the head."
