Now you have been asked by the mayor and certain others to bring out the militia and crush this movement. I assure you it cannot be done, and, if you attempt it, it will cause you and us great trouble. Do as Governor McDougal did in '51. See in this movement what he saw in that a local movement for a local reform in which the State is not concerned. We are not a mob.
If the bowmen had actually intended to throw you into the water, they could not have done it if you had kept your seat." "It is not proper for you to criticise my action." Paul bowed, and made no reply. "I protest against your action in punishing McDougal. He apologized to my satisfaction; and, as this is an affair personal with me, I am surprised at your taking any step without consulting me."
McDougal pulled Mary Cary from the table upon which she had been half sitting into the chair at her side. "Set down, Miss Mary," she said in a half-whisper. "You look like a pink peony turnin' purple. Anybody would think you warn't even a sinner saved by grace, you're that abject. You ain't doin' nothin' sinful. Set up and take your posies like a lady.
"Perhaps you could not," replied Paul, pointedly. "Perhaps you could not; but you were very careless." "I didn't mean to do it," added McDougal. "I do not say that you did. If the professor cannot walk the deck without being drenched with water, it is time those who are so careless should be sent out of the Josephine." "Mr. Hamblin was behind the mast, and I thought he had gone below, sir."

If there's anything I do love in life 'tis a party, and I ain't been to one since I married McDougal, and that's more'n nineteen years ago!" Dull gray skies, a sobbing wind, and rain falling in monotonous regularity greeted the day following the testimony party.
"But if we don't know what time it is, we can't be tied to the bell-rope." "No use; the captain knows the boom from the bobstay, and if he isn't a Knight of the Golden Fleece, you can't pull wool over his eyes. You know he put McDougal through this morning." "Well, come along.

Just listen at his cambric-needle squeak!" "Mr. President." The thin, piping tones caused many to look around. "Mr.

Mr. Johnson afterward explained that he voted under a misapprehension; so that the substitution was made, in effect, by a unanimous vote of the Senate.
In the four factories there's two hundred and ninety-three voters, John Armitage says, and they're solid to a man for Miss Cary. Just tell 'em that for me, will you? Good-night. Come on, children! I wonder where McDougal is? A dead chicken's got more spirit in company than he has! Good-night, Miss Cary, and don't forget we're expectin' of you to tea to-morrow night.
Simson, the clerk, stood up and began to call the roll there was the shuffle of many feet in the hall and the men near the door parted to make way for late but determined arrivals. "Mrs. McDougal and every blessed member of her family!"
