He don't do notting else; it's what he was made for," he added, growing enthusiastic in speaking of the Huron. "I know he is a brave and true-hearted Indian, and is greatly esteemed by the Moravian missionaries. He hesitates at no risk when his friends are in danger." "Ef he does run risk dey don't catch him, 'cause he knows how to run and fight, and ish shmarter dan de Shawnees.
But whatever is touched with it is never again wholly common; whatever is touched with it takes a magic from outside the world. If I touch, with this fairy wand, the railways and the roads of Notting Hill, men will love them, and be afraid of them for ever." "What the devil are you talking about?" asked the King.
London seemed unusually quiet that evening. But when he reached the Marble Arch he saw people streaming hither and thither, hurrying towards Oxford Street, pouring into the Edgware Road, climbing upon omnibuses which were bound for Notting Hill, Ealing and Acton, drifting towards the wide and gloomy spaces of the Park. He crossed the great roadway and went into the Park, too.
Rich fallar bane t'inking poor girl notting but like fresh fruit for him to eat; a cup of vine for him to drink; an' he drink it! He eat de fruit. But dis bane different country. Ay keel dis damned Gowdy! You hare, Yake? Ay keel him!" Of course I told him that this would never do, and talked the way we all do when it is our duty to keep a friend from ruining himself.
Let me ask you a solemn question. Adam Wayne, Lord High Provost of Notting Hill, don't you think it splendid?" "Splendid!" cried Adam Wayne. "It has the splendour of God."

Buck turned on him, stamping. "Do you think fighting is under the Factory Acts?" he said; and he called a cab. "Notting Hill Gate Station," he said; and the two drove off. A genuine reputation can sometimes be made in an hour. Buck, in the next sixty or eighty minutes, showed himself a really great man of action.
It was very easy, it was utterly delightful, to tell all this to Keggo. It was not at all easy, it was very terrible, to tell it before Uncle Pyke. It was appalling, it was terrific, to break to the house in Notting Hill that she desired to earn her living, not as a teacher, but in business like men.
It was at dinner at the glittering table in the splendid dining-room of the magnificent house in Notting Hill, Rosalie there on the half-term week-end of her last term, that the frightful thing was done. At dinner: Uncle Pyke Pounce bathing in his soup; beautiful Laetitia elegantly toying with hers; Aunt Belle beaming over her solid silver spoon at Rosalie. "Try that soup, dear child.
"How large now, my lord," he cried, "is the Empire of Notting Hill?" Wayne smiled in the gathering dark. "Always as large as this," he said, and swept his sword round in a semicircle of silver. Barker dropped, wounded in the neck; and Wilson sprang over his body like a tiger-cat, rushing at Wayne.
"When you conceived the idea," went on Wayne, dreamily, "of an army for Bayswater and a flag for Notting Hill, there was no gleam, no suggestion in your mind that such things might be real and passionate?" "No," answered Auberon, turning his round white face to the morning with a dull and splendid sincerity; "I had none at all." Wayne sprang down from the height above him and held out his hand.
