A half-hearted little coal fire flickered in the grate, and Koga was cleaning silver at the table. Sammy took David Copperfield from the mantel and settled herself in a great chair. "Koga, you go fix Clown now," she suggested. Koga beamed assent. Departing, he wrestled with a remark: "Oh! Nise day. I sink so." Sammy agreed. "You don't have weather like this in Japan in April!"
The two branches of the Uesugi had joined hands in the presence of the Hojo menace, and a powerful league including the Imagawa and the Ashikaga of Koga, had been formed to attack the Hojo.
They are about the same thing. "Say, I understand Koga-san is going to Nobeoka." "Isn't it too bad?" "Too bad? But it can't be helped if he goes there by his own preference." "Going there by his own preference? Who, Sir?" "Who? Why, he! Isn't Professor Koga going there by his own choice?" "That's wrong Mr. Wright, Sir." "Ha, Mr. Wright, is it? But Red Shirt told me so just now. If that's wrong Mr.
It has been seen that the fifth Ashikaga kwanryo, Shigeuji, driven out of Kamakura, took refuge at Koga in Shimotsuke; that he was thenceforth known as Koga Kubo; that the Muromachi shogun, Yoshimasa, then sent his younger brother, Masatomo, to rule in the Kwanto; that he established his headquarters at Horigoe in Izu, and that he was officially termed Horigoe Gosho.
Did he think it strange that here was one fellow, only one in the world, who does not want his salary raised, or was he taken aback that I should come back so soon even if I wished to decline it, or was it both combined, he stood there silent with his mouth in a queer shape. "I accepted your offer because I understood that Mr. Koga was being transferred by his own preference......." "Mr.
Porcupine bitterly condemned Hubbard Squash for being too good-natured. But he was fooled by the oily tongue of Red Shirt, had accepted the transfer outright, and all efforts by Porcupine who was moved by the tearful appeal of the mother, proved unavailing. I said; "The transfer of Koga is nothing but a trick of Red Shirt to cop the Madonna by sending Hubbard Squash away."
When I was attending grammar school, there was one Tami Asai in our class, and his father was just as pale as this Koga. Asai was a farmer, and I asked Kiyo if one's face would become pale if he took up farming. Kiyo said it was not so; Asai ate always Hubbard squash of "uranari" and that was the reason.
"Oh, yis," said Koga, and, drunk with the joy of speech, he added: "I sink so. Awe time nise in Jap-pon! I sink so." "All the time nice in Japan?" echoed Sammy, lazily. "Oh, what a story!" But Koga was convulsed with innocent mirth. However excruciating the effort, he had produced a remark in English. He retired, repeating between spasms of enjoyment: "Oh, I sink so. Awe time nise in Jap-pon!"
The disgustingly snobbish Red Shirt is unexpectedly considerate and warns me in ways more than one, but then he won the Madonna by crooked means. He denies, however, having schemed anything crooked about the Madonna, and says he does not care to marry her unless her engagement with Koga is broken. When Ikagin beat me out of his house, Clown enters and takes my room.
We have had awful women such as O-Matsu the Devil or Ohyaku the Dakki. "Does the Madonna belong to that ring?" "That Madonna-san, you know, was engaged to Professor Koga, who brought you here, yes, was promised to him." "Ha, how strange! I never knew our friend Hubbard Squash was a fellow of such gallantry. We can't judge a man by his appearance. I'll be a bit more careful."
