'Lodged handsomely in Windsor Palace, in the interim; free on his parole, people of rank very civil to him, though the Gazetteers were sometimes ill-tongued, had he understood their PATOIS, or concerned himself about such things
After making arrangements to turn in two hundred beeves on our second contingent, and send a man with them to the coast, Hunter returned home. There was no special programme for the interim until gathering the beeves commenced, yet on a big ranch like Las Palomas there is always work.

In the interim, Cain had desired his crew to elevate their guns, and the broadside was returned.

So that, except for amusing the enemy, the cannonading may cease at Weissenfels. He is down reconnoitring his end of the Bridge: sha'n't I, then?"
Tabra, which is divided by the river into two quarters, was at this time the residence of the queen-mother of Nyffee, who was governor ad interim during the absence of her son. It may contain from eighteen to twenty thousand inhabitants, who, with a few exceptions, are pagans, and they all, men and women, have the reputation of being great drunkards.
