Oh, dear! oh, dear! this animal does hurt me so! Every time he moves he flings his head about, and that gives me such a bump." And then Fanny commiserated her mother's sufferings, and in her commiseration contrived to elude any further questionings as to Mr. Ingram's conversation.
Ingram to-day," said young Mosenberg ingenuously. He was dining with Lavender, not at home, but at a club in St. James's street; and either his curiosity was too great, or he had forgotten altogether Ingram's warnings to him that he should hold his tongue. "Oh, did you?" said Lavender, showing no great interest. "Waiter, some French mustard. What did Ingram say to you?"
Bertram when she had read this note. "What is the matter, mother?" exclaimed Mabel. "Only that I have found a way out of my grand difficulty," responded their mother, tossing Mr. Ingram's note and the tickets for the bazaar into Catherine's lap. "Are you so delighted to go to this country bazaar, mother?" asked the eldest daughter. "Delighted! No, it will be a bore."
It shall be a sort of memorial building, a farmhouse of thanksgiving. I'll make it as snug a place as there is about the property. It has made me wretched for these two years." "I hope all that kind of wretchedness will be over now." "Thank God; yes. I was looking at Brownriggs to-day, and Ingram's. I don't think we'll sell either. I have a plan, and I think we can pull through without it.
Exclusive of the slaves who died before leaving Africa, not more than fifty out of a hundred lived to work on the plantations.

Sir Ingram's spear was pointed at the bars of Archie's helmet, but as the horses met each other Archie with a blow of his sword cut off the head of the lance and dealt a tremendous backhanded blow upon Sir Ingram's helmet as the latter passed him, striking the knight forward on to his horse's neck; then without pausing a moment he dashed into the midst of the English ranks.
At the same time, embellishments of the kind are interesting, as showing how familiar these traditionary beliefs were in olden times to the story-teller, and how ready he was to avail himself of them. See Baring-Gerald's "Curious Myths of the Middle Ages." Ingram's "Florica Symbolica," p. 326. Stewart's "Popular Superstitions of the Highlanders."
A knocking at Ingram's door. "Well, what's the matter?" "Will ye be goin' to ta fishin', Mr. Ingram?" "Is that you, Duncan? How the devil have you got over from Mevaig at this hour of the morning?" "Oh, there wass a bit breeze tis morning, and I hef prought over ta Maighdean-mhara. And there iss a very goot ripple on ta watter, if you will tek ta other gentleman to try for ta salmon." "All right!
She watched her mother sail about it and about in ever narrowing circles, heard herself commended for her promptitude in leaving Wanless, answered enquiries as to Ingram's behaviour under what Mrs. Percival otiosely called "his bereavement," echoed speculations at to his whereabouts played, in short, vacantly an empty part, and kept her mother upon tenterhooks. She gained civil entreaty this way.
"Even them ten minutes I got leave to go up to old Ingram's office they made up for when I came back, and put another batch of them fifty-nine-cent leatherette purses out in the bin."
