"But I will soon put you on board your father's steamer." "Thank you, sir; that is all I can desire." "Can't you do as much as that for me, Lindy?" asked Percy, when he saw that his brother was about to leave him. "If you say that you will return to your place in your regiment, I will release you at once," replied the brother. "I won't do that," answered Percy without any hesitation.
While Lindy well, in her black sewin' dress and white apron, she looks slimmer and more old maidish than ever. He confines his greetin' to a nod of the head, and stands there gazin' at her as calm as if he was starin' at some stranger in the street. "I suppose you've come to take me away with you, Carlos?" says she. "No," says he. "But I thought," says Lindy, "I I thought some day you might.
Marse Dave?" "Yes?" I said. "Marse Dave, she have a lil pink frock dat Marsa Nick had when he was a bebby. I done cotch Mistis lookin' at it, an' she hid it when she see me an' blush like 'twas a sin. Marse Dave?" "Yes?" I said again. "Where am de young Marsa?" "I don't know, Lindy," I answered. Lindy sighed. "She done talk 'bout you, Marse Dave, an' how good you is " "And Mrs.
"Great Scott!" says I. "Must be some mistake about this. Wait a minute. Here, you, Pasha! Come here! Lindy says you're her husband. Is that so?" "Oh, yes," says he, as easy as you please. "Under your laws I suppose I am." "Well, wouldn't that frost you!" says I. "But, say, Sadie, why don't she come down and see him, then?" "Just what I've been asking her," says Sadie.
That is why you and David are wonderful. No one knows better than I how easy it is to be selfish." "I have brought you an English novel," said Madame de Montomery, turning abruptly to Mrs. Temple. "But you must not read it at night. Lindy is not to let you have it until to-morrow." "There," said Mrs.
The cold water stopped for a moment the delirious muttering of the young man. But the big eyes that stared into hers did not associate his nurse with the present. "I done remembered you, 'Lindy, like I promised. I'm a-followin' them scalawags yet," he murmured. "His sister's name was Melindy," explained Prince. The girl nodded. She was rubbing gently the boy's wrist with her wet handkerchief.
It would cost her three hundred and fifty dollars, which she had salted away in the savings bank already, and now she was just driftin' along until she could qualify in the age limit. Livin' just for that! "Ah, can the gloom stuff, Sadie!" says I as she whispers this latest bulletin. "You give me the willies, you and your Lindy!
Paying a medical visit, I enter a house where the patient is a sick child: the old crone who is sitting in the doorway with a boy's head between her knees, performing the office of which monkeys are so fond, calls out, "Lindy! de buckrah coom." "What's the matter with the child?" I inquire.
She started for the bedroom door, Lindy making way for her. I scarcely knew what I did as I sprang forward and took the Vicomtesse by the arm. "Where are you going?" I cried. "You cannot go in there! You cannot go in there!" It did not seem strange that she turned to me without anger, that she did not seek to release her arm.
He would insert the most ridiculous statements, as for instance, "Davy is worse to-day, having bribed Lindy to give him a pint of Madeira against my orders." Or, "Davy feigns to be sinking rapidly because he wishes to have you back." Indeed, I was always in a torture of doubt to know what the rascal had sent.
