And then the lady of the caravan, finding the travellers were hungry, handed them a tea-tray with bread-and-butter and a knuckle of ham; and finding they were tired, took them into the caravan, which was bound for the nearest town, some eight miles off. As the caravan moved slowly along, its owner began to talk to Nell, and presently pulled out a large roll of canvas.
You are the quickest messenger I know, and will get to Temple Bar long before I can." Jerry had just enough forehead to knuckle, and he knuckled it in acknowledgment of this communication and a shilling. Mr. Carton came up at the moment, and touched Mr. Lorry on the arm. "How is the young lady?"
"Isn't he, though isn't he?" he said, after a moment. His lips, pressed together, curled in with a trick they had when he was thinking hard, planning things. The other forbore to question. The notable figure had instantly arrested his attention, and held it until it passed from view. "Isn't he, though, Yankee?" Dicky repeated, and pressed a knuckle into the other's waistcoat. "Isn't he what?"
The black horse snorted and lunged for the watering-pool. Stewart let him drink a little, then with iron arms dragged him away. In this action the man's lithe, powerful form impressed Madeline with a wonderful sense of muscular force. His brawny wrist was bare; his big, strong hand, first clutching the horse's mane, then patting his neck, had a bruised knuckle, and one finger was bound up.
Say everything that is kind from me to her, and my apology for not writing is that my right hand is very weak, as you may see from my writing, from an inflammation I have had in it occasioned entirely by a slight scratch on the knuckle of the fore finger; but it is now quite well, but still weak.
He jammed a diamond whip curling back upon itself into his maroon scarf. He was slightly heavy, so that his hands dimpled at the knuckle, and above the soft collar, joined beneath the scarf with a goldbar pin, his chin threatened but did not repeat itself. "I got to go now, Charley; there's a North End car coming." "Aw, now, sweetness, what's the idea? Didn't you walk down here to pick me up?"
I would much rather have you play every night, down there at your club, than break your promise." Condy fell silent, biting thoughtfully at the knuckle of a forefinger. "Think twice about it, Condy," urged Blix; "because this would be for always." Condy hesitated; then, abstractedly and as though speaking to himself: "It's different now. Before we took that three months ago, I don't say.
"The ball evidently struck the first finger on the knuckle, and went in between the first and middle finger and then ran up the wrist and along the arm, and has gone out, as you see above the elbow, cutting an artery as it went, and smashing the bone just above the elbow. The first thing is to stop the bleeding."
The grip with the first finger and thumb of my right hand is exceedingly firm, and the pressure of the little finger on the knuckle of the left hand is very decided. In the same way it is the thumb and first finger of the left hand that have most of the gripping work to do. Again, the palm of the right hand presses hard against the thumb of the left.
He will continue this motion an hour or more in dry weather. We electrify, upon wax in the dark, a book that has a double line of gold round upon the covers, and then apply a knuckle to the gilding; the fire appears everywhere upon the gold like a flash of lightning; not upon the leather, nor if you touch the leather instead of the gold.
