It is easy to see that he is a young fellow of good promise and spirit. Hip, hip, huzzay! What famous news are these which arrive ten days after the expedition has sailed? On the 7th and 8th of August his Majesty's troops had effected a landing in the Bay des Marais, two leagues westward of Cherbourg, in the face of a large body of the enemy.
And now, one morning, he bursts into my apartment, where I happened to lie rather late, waving the newspaper in his hand, and singing "Huzza!" with all his might. "What is it, Sampson?" says I. "Has my brother got his promotion?" "No, in truth: but some one else has. Huzzay! huzzay!
It was such a hungry sermon." "And it is the 29th of December; and our Harry has come home." "Huzzay, old Pincot!" again says my lord; and my dear lady's lips looked as if they were trembling with a prayer.
For the honour of England. And, starting from his figure at the verge of the crowd, cries went up of 'Huzzay! of 'Burn! and 'St George for London! and unquiet rumours and struggles and waving in the crowd of heads, so that the Bishop's voice was not heard any more that day. But through the crowd a silence fell as the image slowly and totteringly moved forward, ankle deep only in the crowd.
The rest of you shall march for Kentucky," he cried, "as soon as Captain Bowman's company can be relieved at Cahokia. The regiment is dismissed." For a moment they remained in ranks, as though stupefied. It was Cowan who stepped out first, snatched his coonskin hat from his head, and waved it in the air. "Huzzay for Colonel Clark!" he roared.
"Huzzay, David Faux! how's your uncle?" was their morning's greeting. Like other pointed things, it was not altogether impromptu. Even this public derision was not so crushing to David as the horrible thought that though he might succeed now in getting Jacob home again there would never be any security against his coming back, like a wasp to the honey-pot.
I was up betimes, and over to the White Horse Cellar to see Pollux groomed, where I found a crowd about the opening into the stable court. "The young American!" called some one, and to my astonishment and no small annoyance I was greeted with a "Huzzay for you, sir!" "My groat's on your honour!" This good-will was owing wholly to the duke's unpopularity with all classes.
He made his wry face, winked his eye and showed his teeth once more. 'Spat in the dust I should ha' spat in the dust, he remarked again. 'Or maybe I'd have cast my hat on high wi' "Huzzay, Squahre Tom!" according as the mood I was in, he said. He winked again and waited.
There are steps and a little door thence down into the road. My lord passed, looking very ghastly, with a handkerchief over his head, and without his hat and periwig, which a groom carried, but his politeness did not desert him, and he made a bow to the lady above. "Thank heaven, you are safe," she said. "And so is Harry too, mamma," says little Frank, "huzzay!"
The tale of my discovery had already got abroad; the people came to their doors and cheered me, and some little fellows of the school stood in the middle of the road and waved their caps and shouted "Huzzay for Captain Bold!" But I did not ride straight on towards the Wem Road and Cludde Court, as Becky had supposed I intended.
