I have often told Lyle that if he had not been a detective he would have made a great success as a poet, or a playwright. "When Arthur turned on him Lyle hesitated for a moment, and then told him exactly what was the case against him. "'Ever since your brother was reported as having died in Africa, he said, 'your Lordship has been collecting money on post obits.
"These differences were occasioned by the several alterations which had happened in ecclesiastical matters within the compass of twelve years. King Henry VIII. held the ecclesiastical supremacy with the first-fruits and tenths, maintaining the seven sacraments, with obits and mass for the living and the dead.
In the list of obits observed in Hereford Cathedral, Johanna is called the Lady Kilpeck, and out of Lugwardine was paid yearly for her obit forty pence." The effigy of Joanna de Bohun is also valuable as a specimen of costume. Its curious decoration of human heads is also noteworthy.
"I am glad of the lake. I could not look on a country home where there was no swimming. You will be head of the school." "There must be a head." "Is the school likely to be established soon?"

And now he will never know. February, 1918. I wonder if there is any other country where the death of a young poet is double-column front-page news? And if poets were able to proofread their own obits, I wonder if any two lines would have given Joyce Kilmer more honest pride than these: JOYCE KILMER, POET, IS KILLED IN ACTION
A tell me that. The context suggested post obits, which reading is confirmed by succeeding letters. The syllable bits might very naturally, in the mind of honest Aby, be changed into bites.
