From convict mouths went out a respectful roar of amazement, and Mr. Troke's eyes snapped with pride of outraged janitorship. "You ungrateful dog!" he cried, raising his stick. Mr. North put up a hand. "That will do, Troke," he said; "I know your respect for the cloth. Move the men on again." "Get on!" said Troke, rumbling oaths beneath his breath, and Dawes felt his newly-riveted chain tug.
Wouldn't touch a thing no, he was going to do it this time, if he died for it; it was disagreeable to refuse drinks, but it was going to be worth his while. Been boasting about the post-office janitorship Winter was to give him if he got in. Well, in he came to Number Eleven this morning all dressed up, with a clean collar, looking thirstier than any man you ever saw, and gets his paper.
I find little, if any, more respect shown to the species in mythology, the nearest to an apotheosis being the assignment of the janitorship of hell to a dog with three heads. Egyptian mythology found it convenient to have a dog-headed man Anubis as the attendant of Isis and Osiris.
He remembered now that the Universe had offered him the under janitorship in its building. He would go and take it, and some day, perhaps He was not quite sure what the "perhaps" meant. But as his mind grew clearer he came to know, for a sullen, fierce anger was smouldering in his heart against the man who through lies had stolen his wife from him.
You will take them back to Groveton with you." "This is a fortunate day for me," said Luke. "It will pay me much better than the janitorship." "Do your duty, Luke, and your good fortune will continue. But here is our street." They left the car at the corner of Fourteenth Street and Sixth Avenue, and turning westward, paused in front of a four-story house of good appearance.
On the whole, Luke Larkin, you are in luck, your prospects look decidedly bright, even if you have lost the janitorship." Though Randolph was pleased at having, as he thought, put a spoke in Luke's wheel, and filled Mr. Armstrong's mind with suspicion, he was not altogether happy. He had a little private trouble of his own.
The janitorship of the whole large building brought independence to another family where the capable mother dying had left a crippled husband and two young girls to struggle on as best they could.
Hooper," said Randolph, eagerly, "have you heard about Luke?" "I have heard that he has been removed from his janitorship, and I'm sorry for it." "If he goes to jail he wouldn't be able to be janitor," said Randolph. "Goes to jail! What do you mean?" demanded the teacher, sharply. Hereupon Randolph told the story, aided and assisted by Sam Noble, to whom he referred as his authority.
A slaver at the age of seventeen, the ringleader of a mutiny on the African Coast at the age of twenty, a privateersman during the last war with England, the commander of a fire-ship and its sole survivor at twenty-five, with a wild intermediate career of unmixed piracy, until the Rebellion called him to civil service again as a blockade-runner, and peace and a desire for rural repose led him to seek the janitorship of the Doemville Academy, where no questions were asked and references not exchanged: he was, indeed, a fit mentor for our daring youth.
