Beside him sat the Resident's daughter, Elizabeth Hodson, and in the seat behind was Captain Barlow. At the pipal Nana Sahib reined in the bays sharply, saying, "Hello, General, wanted to see you for a minute called at the bungalow, and your servant said you had gone down this way. What's up?" he questioned after greetings had passed between Baptiste, Barlow and Elizabeth Hodson.
"Dewan Sewlal sent to Raja Karowlee for men for a mission, and whether it was in the letter he sent that thugs should come I know not, but in our party were thugs, and that led to why I am here." "What is the difference, Ajeet," Hodson asked sharply. "You are a decoit who robs and kills, and thugs kill and rob; you are both disciples of this murderous creature, Kali."
Hodson said he was quite right: and I have no doubt from this that the two brothers are at variance as brothers often are, and sisters too. Don't you remember the two Miss Scratchleys at Chiswick, how they used always to fight and quarrel and Mary Box, how she was always thumping Louisa? Presently, seeing two little boys gathering sticks in the wood, Mr.
We have been this afternoon among the tombs of heroes Lawrence and Havelock, Banks and McNeil, Hodson and Arthur men who fell in the days of the mutiny. Lawrence's tomb is most touching from its simplicity a short record, no eulogy, only "Here lies Henry Lawrence, Who tried to do his duty."
Starting in hot haste, Lumsden and Hodson took up the trail, and by dogged and relentless pursuit, after three days and nights of incessant marching, came up with their quarry. They found Ganda Singh and his following at Nuroat on the Beas River, while Ram Singh was some miles further on.
Among the many valuable men trained for public life and usefulness by Arnold, was the gallant Hodson, of Hodson's Horse, who, writing home from India, many years after, thus spoke of his revered master: "The influence he produced has been most lasting and striking in its effects. It is felt even in India; I cannot say more than THAT."
It soon became apparent that his evidence was making a deep impression on the court. Sir Henry Hodson listened to him intently, and watched him keenly, as Hill, with impassive countenance and smooth even tones, told his strange story of the night of the murder.
And then, after millions of migrations like these, the soul either finds a permanent state of existence according to its fate, or its identity is lost by being absorbed into deity. Shortly after Daniel heard the first Gospel sermon, Mr Franklin, an assistant Missionary, was sent by Mr Hodson from Bangalore to Goobbe, to make certain arrangements for building a mission-house.
He was so taken aback that he was guilty of a definite start, and the exclamation, "Miss Cronin!" in a voice that suggested alarm. "Oh, old Fanny with Mrs. Clem Hodson!" said Miss Van Tuyn. "She's a school friend of Fanny's from Philadelphia. Let us go to that table in the far corner. I'll just speak to them while you order tea." "But I thought Miss Cronin never went out."
Poor old Hodson only got a week in Simla; and he has fever on him still." Lenox glanced quizzically at the man he desired to weed out of his beloved Battery by the simple means of making him work. "Hard luck," he remarked; a suspicion of irony in his tone. And Hodson, anathematising under his breath India in general, and the Frontier in particular, strolled off down the platform, head in air.
