"Her mind wandered this morning.
It was quite futile to try to disabuse some of these correspondents of the idea that no decline should be allowed in properties that they were interested in. To one who meditates upon the singular experience which was thus abruptly brought to a close, there are a few features of it which stand out as meriting the especial attention of all members of the Stock Exchange.

"What generous confidence the fellow has, for an Indian!" observed Captain Erskine, who could not dissemble his admiration of the warrior.
