Mackintosh's Lectures were after all but a kind of philosophical centos. They were profound, brilliant, new to his hearers; but the profundity, the brilliancy, the novelty were not his own. He was like Dr. It, however, served its purpose and the loud echo died away.
There was a long pause before the old man answered, "I shall be dead by then." A ghastly expression passed over Mackintosh's pale face. He forced himself to laugh. "What rot! You keep quiet and you'll be as right as rain." "Give me a drink," said Walker. "A stiff one." With shaking hand Mackintosh poured out whisky and water, half and half, and held the glass while Walker drank greedily.
Macaulay's pages an air of impartiality and candour very discordant from their general spirit. We are now arrived at the fourth chapter really the first, strictly speaking, of Mr. Macaulay's history the accession of James II, where also Sir James Mackintosh's history commences.
Then a large smile broke out on his face, and he hurried across to a passage opposite, found a friend's door open, and rushed in. The room was empty.

Carey, as a widow, should have Rs. 100 monthly, whatever Mackintosh's house might yield her." Twenty-two years before, when Chamberlain was complaining because of the absence of stone, or brick, or inscription in the mission burial-ground, Carey had said, "Why should we be remembered?

"The chord now, if you please!" said Mr. Heatherbloom to the composer in a still quiet voice. Mr. Mackintosh hit viciously; Mr. Heatherbloom sang again; he did more than that.
