Josiah's liniment looked quite a little clearer, but some shadders still remained, and I went on tenderly and pictured out to him the first meal I would cook for him when we got home. And then his liniment grew peaceful and happy, and he sez gratefully: "You're so calmin' to the nerves, Samantha, when you set out to be, you're a perfect iodine."
And it answered at first; but presently one colour, the wrong one, won so many times running that all their united capital went into Josiah's bank.
"Hush, Tom," whispered Rivers, "no one knows him except Josiah." They walked away together while Rivers told of Josiah's recognition of Lamb. "Keep silent about his name, Tom," and then went on to speak of the man's revengeful story about the Colonel, to Tom's horror. "I am sorry you told me," said the young surgeon. "Yes, I was unwise but " "Oh, let us drop it, Mr. Rivers. How is John?
Carefully analyze it. Sennacherib's invasion, 2 K. 18:14-19 end; Is. 14:24-27; 36:1-37:10; 2 Chron. 32:1-23. Josiah's reformations. The three invasions of Nebuchadnezzar. The Captivity of Judah. Eze., Dan., Lam. The Ten Tribes Lost. After the fall of Samaria we hear but little of the ten tribes. They were carried off into the regions of Ninevah by the Assyrians.
He wuz a double and twisted relation, as you may say, bein' related to us on both our own sides, Josiah's and mine. But I had never sot eyes on him till that day, though I well remember visitin' his parents, who lived then in the outskirts of Loontown good respectable Methodist Epospical people and runners of a cheese factory at that time.
Josiah's commonplace and sometimes impossible remarks perhaps helped it. She seemed to realize how it must all jar on Hector. To know his loved one belonged to this worthy grocer to understand the hopelessness of the position! Anne was proud of her family and her old name.
And I stood still, and listened; and then I heard a awful katouse and rumpus, and then I heard hollerin'; and then I heard Josiah's voice, and somebody else's voice, a talkin' back and forth, sort o' quick and excited. Now, some wimmen would have been skairt, and acted skairt; but I didn't. Pretty soon the door opened right by the side of the table, and in come Josiah Allen and a strange man.
Hair, white as snow; form, bowed down; wan, haggard face; eyes sunken; lookin' at us with melancholy sombry gaze that didn't seem to see anything. Josiah stepped up and held out his hand, and sez: "Elder, I'm glad to see you, how do you do? You don't look very rugged." He didn't notice Josiah's hand no more than if it wuz moonshine.
Between head and heart there was much argument. Her imagination pictured Josiah's future. Had he deserved a fate so sad? She fell on her knees and prayed for help. At last she rose and went down to the library. John laid down his book and stood up. The young face greeted her pleasantly, as she said, "Sit down, John, I want to talk to you. Can you keep a secret?" "Why yes Aunt Ann. What is it?"
Josiah was in a tremor of delight, which presently subsided into a soft glow of contentment, as the captain, stretching himself out over as much of the couch as he could find in the little room, not only lit his cigar, but praised Josiah's claret and told him a good deal more of his balloon adventures than he had communicated to the eminent society in whose rooms they had met.
