"In distress, are you?" cried he, with a vacant smile, "pray, what's the matter?" "Don't you see? we are so crowded we can hardly sit." "Can't you?" cried he, "upon my honour it's very shameful that these people don't contrive some seats more convenient" "Yes," said Mrs Mears; "but if you would be so kind as to let somebody else sit by you we should not want any contrivance."

Commandant Mears carried out my orders at once. A force of the enemy had been waiting for him for three or four days at the farm of Fanny's Home, on the Liebenbergsvlei. But before the sun had risen, a strong force under Colonel Byng had surrounded him and forced him to abandon the guns. And not only were the guns lost, but Captain Muller and thirteen gunners were taken prisoner.

Yet less could the far stronger contrast escape him, between the picture in his own mind of the mother of the mad laird, and the woman before him; he could not by any effort cause the two to coalesce. "You have had a long ride, Mr MacPhail," she said; "you must be tired." "What wad tire me, mem?" returned Malcolm. "It's a fine caller evenin', an' I hed ane o' the marquis's best mears to carry me."

"I don't want two quid, nor one either, for taking my wife to a dance on New Year's Night!" said Johnny Mears. "Run and put on your best bib and tucker, Mary."

"I beg your pardon," said he, "were you speaking to me?" and again began picking his teeth.

"Say, something's the matter with the soup," said Bessie Kent in a shrill whisper as she came in with her tray. "They didn't eat it see, all the cups are full." "Did Miss Parsons say anything?" asked Rosemary, staring at the trays which now surrounded her. "How does she look?" "Kind of queer," answered Fannie Mears, breaking her silence.

Mears' services dispensed with from the ensuing Lady Day, and that a resident curate should be appointed, the choice of whom was to rest with himself. It was then and there decided that Martyn should be 'brought up to the Church, as people then used to term destination to Holy Orders.

It was claimed and with a justice of which those who made the charge were by no means fully aware that the Mears bill had been put through the house and senate by the use of cold cash, proffered even to the governor himself. No legal proof of this was obtainable, but Cowperwood was assumed to be a briber on a giant scale.
