Officer was so tall it was with some little difficulty that a suit could be found to fit him, and when he had stuffed his pants in his boots and thrown away the vest, for he never wore either vest or suspenders, he emerged looking like an Alpine tourist, with his new pink shirt and nappy brown beaver slouch hat jauntily cocked over one ear.
I went back to the bar, and waited until Dan sent me word that all was ready; then I said to old Nappy, "I was only in fun; I wanted to see if you could make a good eggnog." "I make good eggnoggy as anybody," said Nap. "Well, I tell you what I will do; if you will make enough to treat all the passengers, I will give you $10," I said.
"Have you seen my purse anywhere about here?" the gentleman asked with an anxious cadence in his voice. "Your purse!" shrieked Mrs. Lively, turning short upon her husband and glaring in wild alarm. "Lost it?" asked Napoleon, digging his fork into a huge potato and transferring it to his plate. "Go, look in the bed-room, Nappy: I think I must have dropped it there," said the father.
Nevertheless, she was comforted to know she had one friend among these desperate outlaws, and that comfort gave her at least an hour or two of broken, nappy sleep. In the morning when she had dressed she found her room door unlocked, and she stepped outside into the sunshine. York Neil was sitting on the porch at work on a broken spur strap. Looking up, he nodded a casual good morning.
So it was agreed that, the next day, he should go to help them gather the russets. They invited James to go too. The Pet Lamb. The next morning, James and Rollo went together to the farmer’s. They found George at the gate waiting for them, with his dog Nappy. As the boys were walking along into the yard, George said that his dog Nappy was the best friend he had in the world, except his lamb.
His true name was Napoleon; though James always thought that he got his name from the long naps he used to take in a certain sunny corner of the yard. But, as I said before, George got into the garden-house, and shut Nappy out. He stood there holding the door, and said, “Father, all the horses have been watered but Jolly: may I ride him to the brook?” “Yes,” said his father.
At her short hair, the other servants laughed, "Miss Clo needn't strut round so big, she got short nappy har well as I," said Nell, with a broad grin that showed her teeth. "She tinks she white, when she come here wid dat long har of hers," replied Mill. "Yes," continued Nell; "missus make her take down her wool so she no put it up to-day."
We said we could sleep in the yard and take our chances for breakfast. After yielding, inch by inch, she said we could sleep on the porch. "Well, I reckon you just as well come into the house," and showed us into a snug room containing two nice, clean beds, in one of which lay a little "nigger" about five years old, with her nappy head on a snow-white pillow.
William Nicol made the brewst strong and nappy; and Allan Masterton, then on a visit at Dalswinton, crossed the Nith, and, with the poet and his celebrated punch-bowl, reached Laggan "a wee before the sun gaed down."
You're so dashed nappy you simply say 'Right-ho, old bird! Make it so! That's the way I got had!" Jill laughed unfeelingly. "It will do you good, Freddie. It'll stir you up and prevent you being so silly again. Besides, you know you'll hardly notice it. You've much too much money as it is." "It's not the money. It's the principle of the thing. I hate looking a frightful chump."
