Once more our versatile hero found himself turned adrift with brutal and agonising suddenness, and bidden to exercise his talents elsewhere. After a fortnight's uneventful dreariness with his platoon, Dunshie joined the machine-gunners, because he had heard rumours that these were conveyed to and from their labours in limbered waggons. But he had been misinformed.
She saw that Margaret had simply made an innocent mistake from sheer ignorance of the question. "My damsel has been misinformed. We Israelites hold all images to be wicked, and abhorrent to the holy law." "Then thou wilt not want to set up an idol for thyself anywhere?" "Most assuredly not." "I hope I have not vexed thee," said Margaret, ingenuously. "I did not know."
When we were on the point of discontinuing the search, thinking we had been misinformed or had passed it by, we came in sight of a bark-peeling, in the midst of which a small log house lifted its naked rafters toward the now breaking sky. It had neither floor nor roof, and was less inviting on first sight than the open woods.
Puffs of smoke rose above the hill that hid the iron combatants. "Ashby's Horse Artillery," said the men. "That's the Blakeley now! Boys, I reckon we're in for it!" An aide passed at a gallop. "Shields and nine thousand men. Ashby was misinformed more than we thought Shields and nine thousand men." Along the line the soldiers slightly moved their feet, moistened their lips.
That Baboushka is a witch of malevolence, or I am woefully misinformed, and the major an awkward antagonist. I would a thousand miles separated my daughter, and this young man, from both of them." In the lobby he saw a young girl, with her hair in curl-papers and a candle in her hand, descending the stairs from above. "Ah, Hedwig," he said gently, "I am not sorry you have risen so early."
Instead of expressing pity for any one who had been misinformed upon so serious a question, their feelings were those of anger, and they declared most earnestly that they would spare no pains to set the matter right, fingering the hilts of their long broad-swords as they said so. Well, my dear Crassus, you will have had enough of me and of my Saxons.
As Richard came in, he opened and shut his mouth like a cod-fish, and his eyes protruded. 'Have you seen that, sir? he cried, nodding towards the paper. 'Yes, sir, said Richard. 'Oh, you've read it, have you? 'Yes, I have read it, replied Richard, looking at his foot. 'Well, demanded the old gentleman, 'and what have you to say to it, sir? 'You seem to have been misinformed, said Dick.
"'At present, sir, nothing; but it is possible there may be, and if you should remain in the country, I shall feel great pleasure in acquainting you. "'Because I was told, I continued, 'that there are two large farms, either of which would suit me admirably; but I dare say I have been misinformed. I allude to Mr. M'Loughlin's and Herman's holdings, which I understand are out of lease.
"Madam," answered Frank, in great perturbation, "I beg your pardon, but you have been grossly misinformed. I have known that excellent man these twenty years, and have paid him hundreds on hundreds; but never so much by ten per cent. as you offered me for discounting your bill." "Sir, I cannot have anything to do with your friend."
There's but ae thing that I'm feared on just ae fault that I see in ye; indeed I may say it's the beginning o' a' ithers, and I wad fain hae ye promise to mend it; for it has brought mair misery upon the marriage state than a' the sufferings o' poverty and the afflictions o' death put thegither. "'Mercy me, ma'am! exclaimed I, 'what de ye mean? Ye've surely been misinformed.
