That night, at ten o'clock, after Tess had silenced the child in her arms and Teola had lost her nervousness in a stupor, three boats shot from different points of the west shore, and quietly oared a path through the moonlit lake toward the netting place. The occupants of one boat were Satisfied Longman and his son. In another Jake Brewer sat, alone. In the third Ben Letts puffed upon his pipe.
That he should go first! Oh God, preserve me and bless you all. Ever yours truly, Could you say or write a line in season to Lady Colvile? They say I am better. To Mr. T. Norton Longman Rutland Gate, December 7th. I have been and am horribly upset by the sudden death of Sir James Colvile, which took place yesterday morning.
Henry Southern, afterwards a diplomatist, then a literary man by profession. The two editors agreed to unite their corps, and divide the editorship, Bowring taking the political, Southern the literary department. Southern's Review was to have been published by Longman, and that firm, though part proprietors of the Edinburgh, were willing to be the publishers of the new journal.
Sweet-tooth, the second finger, pryed into what was sweet, as well as into what was sour, pointed to the sun and moon, and he it was that gave stress when they wrote. Longman, the third brother, looked at the others contemptuously over his shoulder. Goldrim, the fourth, wore a golden girdle round his body! and the little Peter Playallday did nothing at all, of which he was very proud.
"Is there any one whom you suspect? If so, it is your duty to tell me." "I don't take much stock in Peter Longman." "I am afraid you are suspicious, Hugh." "Not without cause. I have noticed some things about him that I don't like. I think he is quite capable of turning against you." "I have never remarked anything of the sort, but I know you would not speak without cause.
I am the more grateful as all the others I have seen whether laudatory or not have all been the production of ignorant men who did not see, or of learned men who did not wish to see, any of the specialties of the book. I am better, but unfit for any work. Yours very truly, To Mr. T. Norton Longman Foxholes, April 20th.
But, my dear, added he, you'll mention this to your father, if you please. I have too much money, Longman, continued he, lies useless; though, upon this occasion, I shall not grudge laying out as much in liveries and other things, as if I had married a lady of a fortune equal, if possible, to my Pamela's merit; and I reckon you have a good deal in hand. Yes, sir, said he, more than I wish I had.
Longman have postponed the publication of the Correspondence in the fear that it would injure the sale of the Memoirs, the book having had a great success here. By the enclosed, which is as true and as like as I could make it, you will see that he was a very brilliant and charming person.
"I can't sing," and she frowned. The babe whined in the cradle and Tessibel took him up. The glorious voice hushed the child to sleep, Myra Longman bitterly scanning the beautiful face. There were only two years between her and Tessibel, and her own poor, ghastly wrinkled face looked years older. If she were only pretty, Ben might love her.
"Yer Daddy won't live allers," interposed Mrs. Longman, "and what's more, yer better off with a man what will look after ye as Ezy will. Be ye a thinkin' of it at all, Tessibel?" The girl shook her head. "Nope, 'taint no use; don't like Ezy anyway." "Ezry ain't the worst boy in the world," defended the mother; "if the right woman gets him, Tess, he'll make her a good man.
