At Senlac, Guilbert de Mertoun had stood near William of Normandy when he gave his command to his archers that they should shoot into the air, whereby an arrow sought English Harold for its mark and pierced him through eye and brain, leaving him slain, and William conqueror. It had been a Guilbert de Mertoun who rode with Rufus when he would cross to Normandy to put down insurrection there.
The agents have been William A. Burke, 1845; Mertoun C. Bryant, 1862; Andrew Moody, 1862; George Richardson, 1870; Charles L. Hildreth, 1879. The company makes all kinds of machinery for mills. The Proprietors of Locks and Canals on Merrimack River were incorporated in 1792.
Well, I can work at something, so at the Magnum work I. The day was indeed broken, great part having been employed in the return from Mertoun. December 28. Drove down to Huntly Burn. Sir Adam very melancholy, the death of his sister having come with a particular and shocking surprise upon him. After half-an-hour's visit I returned and resumed the Magnum. December 29.
"And if there's anything I can do for you any time, drop me a line." The sumptuous ripple and gleam of the young man's faultless coat, registered upon Banneker's subconscious memory as it had fallen at his feet, recalled itself to him. "What store do you buy your clothes at?" "Store?" Cressey did not smile. "I don't buy 'em at a store. I have 'em made by a tailor. Mertoun, 505 Fifth Avenue."
I walked from Huntly Burn up the little Glen, which was in all the melancholy beauty of autumn, the little brook brawling and bickering in fine style over its falls and currents. October 17. Drove down to Mertoun and brought up Elizabeth Scott to be our guest for some days or so. Various chance guests arrived.
Being endowed with all gifts by Nature and his path made broad by Fortune, he had dealt in high honour with all bestowed upon him. But now for this night he knew he was a different man, and that his hour had come. He stood in the centre of the chamber and tossed up his hands, laughing a mad, low, harsh laugh. "Not as Hugh de Mertoun came back," he said. "Good God! no, no!"
John's Wood, near Kilburn," there was a stone stained dark-red with the blood of Sir Gervase de Mertoun, who was slain by his brother, who had become enamoured of his wife. Gervase, with his dying breath, exclaimed: "This stone shall be my deathbed!"
This brought bad sleep and unpleasing dreams. But if I cannot hope to be what I have been, I will not, if I can help it, suffer vain repining to make me worse than I may be. We left Mertoun after breakfast, and the two Annes and I visited Lady Raeburn at Lessudden. My Aunt is now in her ninetieth year so clean, so nice, so well arranged in every respect, that it makes old age lovely.
'Tis strange indeed, Gerald, how such things break forth or slumber in a race. Should you trace Wildairs, as you trace Mertoun through the past, her nature would be made clear enough.
She must have been an unedifying abbess at Ambresbury, though not devoid of kindness of heart. Archbishop Winchelsea held a synod at Mertoun in 1305, where various decrees were made respecting the books and furniture which each parish was bound to provide for the Divine service. The books were to be "a legend" containing the lessons for reading, with others containing the Psalms and Services.
