Well, sir, it was just after ye went to learn to be a doctor, that I resolved to try and do something to push him forward mysel, as his parents were not in ability; and I had made application to a gentleman on his behalf, to use his influence to procure him a bursary in ane o' the universities, when Sandy's faither died, and, puir man, left hardly as muckle behind him as would pay the expenses o' the funeral.

"I s' tell her mysel'," returned Malcolm. "But, gentlemen, I beg o' ye, till I ken what I 'm aboot an' gie ye leave, dinna open yer moo' to leevin' cratur' aboot this. There's time eneuch for the warl' to ken 't." "Your lordship commands me," said Mr Soutar. "Yes, Malcolm, until you give me leave," said Mr Graham. "Whaur 's Mr Morrison?" asked Malcolm. "He is still in the house," said Mr Soutar.

Ye see, I maun mak mysel' a friend to the folk first, before I can do them gude I maun get to the heart o' their troubles an' troubles are plentiful in that quarter, I maun live among them, an' be ane o' them. I wad mind ye that Christ Himsel' gave sympathy to begin with, he did the preachin' afterwards."

But syne what wad hae come o' the gran' delicht o' seein' auld age rin hirplin awa' frae the face o' the Auncient o' Days?" "I wad fain be contentit wi' my lot, thouch," persisted Robert; "but whan I fin' mysel' sae helpless like, I canna get it oot o' my heid 'at the Lord has forsaken me, an' left me to mak an ill best o' 't wantin' him."

And I have told my father that I love you. I have told him every thing." "Weel, sir? What said he?" "He only asked me to wait for two years, and during that time to stay away from you." "He asked jist what I wad hae asked, even for mysel'. I'm a poor ignorant fisher-lass, I wouldna daur to marry you, unless you had tried your love for me in some mair than ordinar' way."

I glowered upon him, as he has often since told me, with a shudder, and cried, "But I hae left Sarah Lochrig in their hands, and, like a coward, run away to save mysel." "Compose yoursel, Ringan, and let us reason together," was his discreet reply.

At eight bells which is midnight the Chief emptied his twenty-fourth pipe over the rail and smiled into the gloom beneath. "Ye'll better be coming up," he remarked pleasantly. "I'm for turning in mysel'." He wandered away; none of the watch was near. The ship was dark, save for her riding lights.

But I thought it would be better no' to wait. Ye see there's a strip of Campbells in that end of Mull, which is no good company for a gentleman like me. If it hadna been for that I would have waited and looked for ye mysel', let alone giving a hand to the little man." Man, they didna stop to fash with me! Ye should have seen them linking for the beach!

I went into Mary's mysel'. But Mary was away at Kirkwall, ye ken. I saw that some person had been there, however; for the peats were still hot, and there was some roasted potatoes on the table, forbye a cloth that had blood on it." "And you waited about there until Dr. Linklater came?" "Yes, Mr. Duke." "Now do you recognize this as the gun you found?" Mr. Duke asked, touching my fowling piece.

But don't you think, as we shall, I trust, sit down together to his heavenly supper it would be a good preparation to sit down together, once at least, to his earthly supper first?" "I didna ken 'at ye wad hae ony but yer ain fowk! I hae aften thoucht mysel', it was jist the ae thing ony Christian sud be ready to du wi' ony ither.
