Shelley's happiness in his home had been wounded and bruised almost to death, thirdly, because Harriet's walks with Hogg commonly led to some fashionable bonnet-shop. I offer no palliation; I only ask why the dispassionate, impartial judge did not offer one himself merely, I mean, to offset his leniency in a similar case or two where the girl who ran away with Harriet's husband was the shopper.
And springing upon Sandgoist he seized him by the shoulders and hustled him out-of-doors in spite of his protests and resistance. Sylvius Hogg reached Dal on the evening of the following day. He did not say a word about his journey, and no one knew that he had been to Bergen. As long as the search was productive of no results he wished the Hansen family to remain in ignorance of it.
Hogg, after a moment's hesitation, followed. "The laugh's agin you, farmer," said the latter gentleman, taking his arm. Mr. Rose shook him off. "Better make the best of it," continued the peace-maker. "She's a girl to be proud of," said Lawyer Quince, keeping pace with the farmer on the other side.
After a considerable interval, some notices of Shelley have appeared, without, however, throwing much additional light on the wayward heart and pilgrimage of the poet. Mr. C.S. Middleton has published a book upon Shelley and his writings; Mr. T.J. Hogg has given a sketch of his life; and E.J. Trelawny some recollections of him, as well as of Byron.
Bond until sleep rescued him once more. It was natural, therefore, that however numerous the people in Polchester might be whom the Archdeacon despised, he despised little Bond most of all. And here was little Bond pressed up against him, with the large circumference of the cheerful Mr. Samuel Hogg near by, and the ironical town smartness of Messrs. Curtis and Croppet close at hand.
Prominent among those who helped to work out the plot were Mary Burton, a white servant of Hughson's, sixteen years of age; Arthur Price, a young white man who at the time of the proceedings happened to be in prison on a charge of stealing; a young seaman named Wilson; and two white women, Mrs. Earle and Mrs. Hogg, the latter of whom assisted in the store kept by her husband, Robert Hogg.
The next morning Foreman Lengling's gayly painted kariol bore away Sylvius Hogg and Hulda, seated comfortably side by side. There was not room for Joel, as we know already, so the brave fellow trudged along on foot at the horse's head. The fourteen kilometers that lay between Dal and Moel had no terrors for this untiring walker.
"Now," says Jack, "you know you cannot do the thing by main force; so the best plan will be for you to go on board and get under way, leaving me to bring off Miss Hicks, when her brother will imagine all danger to be over." "Many thanks, Mr Easy," replied Captain Hogg; "it will be capital, and I'll arrange it all with my Julia. How very kind of you!" "But, Hogg, will you promise me secrecy?"
He made friends with an uncouth but able fellow student, who bore the remarkable name of Thomas Jefferson Hogg a name that seems rampant with republicanism and very soon he got himself expelled from the university for publishing a little tract of an infidel character called "A Defense of Atheism." His expulsion for such a cause naturally shocked his father.
It is certain that, though inordinately fond of boats and every kind of water river, sea, lake, or canal he never learned to swim. Peacock also notices his habit of floating paper boats, and gives an amusing description of the boredom suffered by Hogg on occasions when Shelley would stop by the side of a pond or mere to float a mimic navy.
