"Arrah! bad luck to you, is it after mocking Judy Flanagan you are, you tafe?" Here she burst into a loud horse-laugh, slapping her legs with both her hands, "You an officer of the old Fogs! ha, ha, ha! Arrah, none of your blarney, honey." "However you may laugh," said I, "I am an officer of the old Fogs, as you call them, and I am come to join them."

Hendon, suppressing a horse-laugh, and saying to himself, "By all the saints, but this is admirable!" stepped briskly forward and did the small insolent's bidding; then stood by, in a sort of stupefaction, until the command, "Come the towel!" woke him sharply up. He took up a towel, from under the boy's nose, and handed it to him without comment.

I think with a horse-laugh, and there was no reason why the Neapolitan King should not receive that dispatch of Lord Napier's in the same way, except that he, no doubt, gave it good-naturedly a more polite and courteous reception.

"They are not," said the centurion, "the regular arms of our corps." "The fitter you to guard the gates of a city," said the young soldier, with a horse-laugh, which had something insulting in it. "Well be it so. I can shoot like a Scythian," he proceeded; "nod but with your head, one shaft shall crash among the splinters of his skull and his brains; the second shall quiver in his heart."

While we were enjoying our repast, Sir Pitt took occasion to ask what had become of the shoulders of the mutton. "I believe they were eaten in the servants' hall," said my lady, humbly. "They was, my lady," said Horrocks, "and precious little else we get there neither." Sir Pitt burst into a horse-laugh, and continued his conversation with Mr. Horrocks.

Not one of them cried aloud and though in their humorous antics more than one cried, "flicker, flicker, flicker," there was in it none of the usual horse-laugh tone of the high-hole when he is on a rampage. It was reduced to a gentle whinny that seemed to vie with the boudoir-built notes of the robins.

The voice ashore soared again, sure and buoyant; the mate dragged his arm free from Dan's hold and turned to swear; on the main deck the horse-laugh of Bill answered the singer. The Dago heard nothing. Bending forward over the rail, he stretched both arms forth, and in a voice that none recognized, broken and passionate, he took up the song.

The scholar was mortified and began to scold him; but the fox disappeared with a horse-laugh. The Master of the Heavens, Tian Schi, who dwells on the Lung Hu Schan, is the so-called Taoist pope. Laotsze is really older than heaven and earth put together. He is the Yellow Lord or Ancient, who created this world together with the other four.

Could you abide an Angel in an unclean shirt and no suspenders? Could you respect an Angel with a horse-laugh and a swagger like a buccaneer? There were other blackguards present comrades of this one. And there was one person that looked like a gentleman Heber C. Kimball's son, tall and well made, and thirty years old, perhaps.
