In 1803, Elisha Norton arrived in Cleveland with a stock of goods principally adapted to the Indian trade, which he exhibited for sale in Major Carter's house. The State of Ohio was this year admitted into the Union, and the first election was held at James Kingsbury's. The first Post Office was established here in 1804, when letters were received and transmitted every seven days.
I'll try to be good until we get into the car again. You watch me! I'll behave as if we'd been married ten years." He snapped his fingers again, and the waitress hurried up to take their orders. "Kingsbury's still dry, I guess," he said to the girl, who smiled sympathetically, somewhat ruefully.
Why shouldn't he have taken his title?" "Of course we all wish he would." "Fanny is as bad as he is. She has caught some of Hampstead's levelling ideas and encourages the young man. It was all Kingsbury's fault from the first. He began the world wrong, and now he cannot get himself right again. A radical aristocrat is a contradiction in terms. It is very well that there should be Radicals.
Lady Kingsbury's feelings would be sacrificed were her daughter, even her stepdaughter, to become my boy's husband. She supposes that her girl's birth is superior to my boy's." "There are so many meanings to that word 'birth." "I will take it all as you mean, Lord Hampstead, and will not be offended. My boy, as he is, is no match for your sister.
"Well," he said, with a man's simple pleasure in Miss Kingsbury's friendliness to his wife, "that's the girl I used to tell you about, the rich one with the money in her own right, whom I met at the Hallecks'. She seemed to think you were about the thing, Marsh! I saw her eyes open as she came up, and I felt awfully proud of you; you never looked half so well. But why didn't you say something?"
It delighted her to have him make fun of Miss Kingsbury's tea, and she lifted her head to let him see that she was laughing for pleasure now, before she turned away to dry her eyes. "Oh, poor fellow!" she cried. "I did pity you so when I saw those mean little slices of bread and butter coming round!" "Yes," said Bartley, "I felt sorry myself. But don't speak of them any more, dearest."
Fortunately, the conservatory pupil had embraced with even more than Miss Kingsbury's ardor the theory of Bartley's aberration, and she met Marcia with a sympathy in her voice and eyes that could only have come from sincere conviction.
Congratulate you!" she mocked, with an unsparing laugh. "Such a success! But why didn't you give them something to eat, Clara? Those poor Hubbards have a one-o'clock dinner, and I famished for them. I wasn't hungry myself, we have a two-o'clock dinner!" Bartley came home elate from Miss Kingsbury's entertainment. It was something like the social success which he used to picture to himself.
I'll try to be good until we get into the car again. You watch me! I'll behave as if we'd been married ten years." He snapped his fingers again, and the waitress hurried up to take their orders. "Kingsbury's still dry, I guess," he said to the girl, who smiled sympathetically, somewhat ruefully.
When the rehearsal was over, and the heroes and heroines were to return home, it was found that, by a stroke of witty invention not new in the country, the harness of Mr. Kingsbury's horses had been cut in several places, his whip hidden, his buffalo-skins spread on the ground, and the sleigh turned bottom upwards on them.
