Add to all this, visitors interrupting me from 4-5, correspondence, accounts, trustee business, sermons, nursing sick boys, and all the many daily unexpected little troubles that must be smoothed down, and questions inquired into, and boys' conduct investigated, and what becomes of linguistics? So much for my excuse for my small progress in languages!
In other words, history, in any proper sense, demands more than "survey" in Prof. Geddes' sense of the word. It calls to its aid linguistics, criticism, archaeology, jurisprudence, and politics there must be comparison and criticism as well as "survey." This being so, the scope of "civics" as "applied sociology" is immensely widened.

Cuoq, of Montreal, eminent both as a missionary and as a philologist.
Knowing of Bayne's hobby for linguistics, the oculist jocularly turned these archaic curios over to him.
M. Cuoq is also the author of a valuable Iroquois lexicon, with notes and appendices, in which he discusses some interesting points in the philology of the language. Auctore R. P.

Holroyd watched the mounting yellow flare against the blackness, and the livid flashes of sheet lightning that came and went above the forest summits, throwing them into momentary silhouette, and his stoker stood behind him watching also. The stoker was stirred to the depths of his linguistics. "Saüba go pop, pop," he said, "Wahaw" and laughed richly.
