The crowd, which had gathered courage and followed Neal down the street, answered him with a groan and a volley of stones. The man sprang from the ladder, called to his comrades, and in a moment the dragoons drew together and, their swords in their hands, charged the crowd. Neal's horse, terrified by the shouting, became unmanageable.
"And signed his name Peter Pan," recalled Louise. "Why should Kitty be watching a child with such a swell name?" queried Julia. "Why all the other things?" replied Elizabeth. "There's Neal's toot. We must go," announced Isabel. "I wish we could circle around the island," suggested Cleo. "No harm in that, surely. Every one goes as they please on the bay." "Grand idea!" exclaimed Helen.
* Neal's History of the Puritans, vol. i. p. 410. She appointed forty-four commissioners, twelve of whom were ecclesiastics; three commissioners made a quorum; the jurisdiction of the court extended over the whole kingdom and over all orders of men; and every circumstance of its authority, and all its methods of proceeding, were contrary to the clearest principles of law and natural equity.
If their mouths would only turn up at the corners! Well, it was the same old story. Mouths that turned up at the corners were seldom met with in Mr. Neal's book of subway faces. Bleecker Street, and a worse jam than ever, but there was encouragement in the thought that Fourteenth Street would soon relieve the pressure.
Neal's arrival at the Villa, Manisty was more depressed than usual. He had been making some attempts to rearrange a certain section of his book which had fallen especially under the ban of Neal's criticism. He had not been successful; and in the process his discontent with one chapter had spread to several.
Bruin was only fifteen yards away when Farrar's rifle cracked once twice sending out its messengers of death. There was a last terrible growl, a plunge, and a thud which seemed to shake the ground under Neal's feet.
It contained poems from Wordsworth, passages from Shakespeare's plays, among them the pathetic dialogue between Hubert and little Prince Arthur, whose appeal to have his eyes spared, brought many a tear to my own. Bryant's "Waterfowl" and "Thanatopsis" were there also; and Neal's, "There's a fierce gray bird with a bending beak,"
"Oh, whistle and I will come to you, my lad," he quoted, as he hustled the shirt over Neal's shoulders. "Why didn't you whistle, Neal, or shout, or something? Only for that devil's song we'd never have found you. I guessed he was at some mischief when I heard him begin it." "Silence," said Donald, "and let us get out of this.
Indeed, you were quite right to stop the man. As for what I said, I beg you to forget it. It was nothing but a joke, a little joke of mine." He bowed and cringed. He spoke in a deprecating whine, very different from the blustering tone he had used before. Neal's interest in the scene before him became suddenly very acute. He was almost certain now that he recognised the voice.
Are you no sure that there isna something of that kind, something no right in the gloom beyond there?" "Neal's in it," said Una, "what's to frighten me?" "Ay, sure enough, he's there, the poor bairn. Lord save us, and keep us! The lassie's intil the water, and it up ower her head, and she's drownded.
