I am sorry that all this happened under your roof," I said. "Harry, we must hurry before we lose him;" and Colonel Carrington answered coldly. "I am inclined to agree with you." Brief leavetakings followed. Miss Carrington was cordial, but, and it may have been exaggeration of sentiment, I dare not look at Grace with the shadow of such a charge hanging over me.
I know Camp Crosstrees will seem deserted and desolate without these two little rays of sunshine." After affectionate leavetakings, Mr. Rose departed and the two girls went on with Mr. Fayre. He was not of such a jolly nature as Mr. Rose, nor so inclined to talk with the children.
Having neither possessions nor relations, the occupation of disposing of his goods and making ceremonious and affectionate leavetakings of his family, against the occurrence of any unforeseen disaster, engrossed no portion of Yang Hu's time.
The little girls examined these pictures and commented on them; and on Saturdays it was a matter of the keenest speculation what the following week would bring them. Lizzie preferred exciting scenes of murder and arson, while Annie was moved more by leavetakings and declarations of unalterable affection.

Many friends came to the railway station at Washington, and on the boat at New York. Telegrams and letters of farewell came in hundreds, and our cabins were full of presents, consisting of baskets of fruit, flowers, cigars, books, beverages of all kinds, which are the custom at leavetakings in America.
'Why not? Don't argue. These scoundrels will make me one, whether I like or not; so forth I go. There will be few leavetakings. This brute of a dog is the only friend I have on earth; and I love her, because she has the true old, dogged, spiteful, cunning, obstinate Maccabee spirit in her of which if we had a spark left in us just now, there would be no little Exodus; eh, Bran, my beauty?
The gentlemen jumped down, helping Isabel and Fanny to descend; there were friendly leavetakings and one that was not precisely friendly. "It's 'au revoir, till to-night, isn't it?" Lucy asked, laughing.
