Colonel Keith had better lie close." "But that Whig knows where he is!" cried I. "He Ephraim, do you know him?" "Know whom, Cary?" "Mr Raymond." "Is he your Whig?" asked Ephraim, laughing. "Pray, don't make him into mincemeat; he is one of the best men in England." "He need be," said I; "he is a horrid Whig! What do you, being friends with such a man?" "He is a very good man, Cary.

Prebble and Miss Boothby, and the story of the match is one of startling lapses and recoveries. In the first set Mr. Prebble and Miss Boothby profited by the combination born of frequent association in Mixed Doubles. Miss Boothby was very good from the back of the court and Mr. Prebble seemed to make mincemeat of my returns. It was their set by 6/4. In the second set Mr.

At the third day, in order to make a third trial, she told the Prince to clean out for her a cistern which held a thousand casks of water, for she wished to fill it anew, adding that if the task were not finished by the evening she would make mincemeat of him.

With great rudeness he swore he would not. Instantly every face was dark: and, biting his lip with rage, each officer laid his hand upon his sword and looked to the general. One word, nay, one assenting LOOK, and the brute would have been hewed into mincemeat in a moment.

He could not manage that, and a tug of war commenced, in which Gubbins, being the weaker and less active, was pulled bodily out of the ranks, and would have been made mincemeat of had not some one shot the Arab through the head, while his rear rank man pulled him back.

Then he turned towards them with new-born dignity that would have fitted Dirk Colson, and said: "If you fellows don't shut up, and behave yourselves something like decent for the rest of the time, I'll chaw half a dozen of you into mincemeat as soon as we are out of this!" Dr. Everett was driving rapidly through the city; at least, as rapidly as the crowded character of the street would permit.

All three adventurers sprang to their feet. "What!" yelled Larry. "Came here to-day! What did he look like?" "Looked more like mincemeat than any human being I ever saw," replied the trader.

We need not say that his nurse confirmed him in these good resolutions. "And now," said Beck, when the time came for parting, "you'll keep from the gin-shop, old 'oman, and not shame the young master?"

Giles, who was making a fortune, was free to roam and search wherever he pleased. Even his careful examination of the cotton blind, and his scraping of the window-sill with a knife, were not remarked; for had not the great chair been hacked into fragmentary relics, and the loose paper of the walls of Leonard's room been made mincemeat of, as memorials of 'the murderer, Ward'?
