I have visited the eastern shore of the Lake somewhat more extensively than the western, and nowhere did I see similar pebbles. Mr. Muir, who has walked around the Lake, tells me that they do not occur on the eastern shore.
All day long the hills had been bathed in impenetrable fog. Throughout there had been an accompanying drizzle; and in the distance the wind had moaned a storm-menace. To the darkness of the day was added the sombreness of falling night as the three began the ascent of the Murk Muir Pass. By the time they emerged into the Devil's Bowl it was altogether black and blind.
I saw him today at Milnwood with his old puritanical b of a mother, and if I had thought I was to have had him cast in my dish, I would have brought him up at my horse's tail we had law enough to bear us out." "Very weel, very weel See if Cuddie winna hae a lang shot at you ane o' thae days, if ye gar him tak the muir wi' sae mony honest folk.
She'll 'weep with delight when he gives her a smile and tremble with fear at his frown. His mother can't stop it, however furious she may be. Nothing can stop that sort of thing when it once begins." "If England declares war Donal Muir will have more serious things to do than pursue adventures," was Coombe's comment.
There were four hundred regulars and Canadian militia, under command of major Muir, and a considerable body of Indians under Tecumseh. Forty of the latter were found dead on the field: fifteen of the British regulars were killed and wounded, and four taken prisoners.
Doctor Muir had long been a trusted friend of the Luttrell family. He had liked Richard rather less than any other member of the household, but he was sincerely grieved and shocked by the news which had greeted him as he went upon his rounds. The Grants drew him aside and gave him their account of the accident before he spoke to Brian. The doctor had tears in his eyes when they had finished.
Graydon felt that he had received all the assurance that he needed that she was under some necessity of keeping his rival in good-humor so he smiled significantly into her eyes, and bowed himself away. "Muir looked as if he had received all the comfort that he required," Arnault said, as they strolled across the parlor, now deserted. "Did he? Well, he did not require very much." "How much?"
Muir," he said, "I can let you have thirty thousand just as well as not; as the times are, I would like some security, however." "Certainly, here are bonds marketable to-day, although depressed unnaturally. You are aware that they will be among the first to appreciate." "In ordinary times one would think so." "How soon do you think you may call in this loan?"
Another berg-dotted lake into which the drainage of the Braided Glacier flows, lies a few miles to the westward and is one and a half miles long. Berg Lake is next the remarkable Girdled Glacier to the southeastward. When the ice-period was in its prime, much of the Muir Glacier that now flows northward into Howling Valley flowed southward into Glacier Bay as a tributary of the Muir.
Indeed, the popularity of such writing has been so great as to make us distrust its serious literary value. And yet, viewed internationally, there are few achievements in American literature so original. I will not say that John Muir and John Burroughs, upon whom Thoreau's mantle fell, have written great books. Probably not. Certainly it is too soon to say.
