Okes there are as faire, straight, tall, and as good timber as any can be, and also great store, and in some places very great. Walnut trees, as I haue said before very many, some haue bene seene excellent timber of foure and fiue fadome, and aboue fourescore foote streight without bough. Firre trees fit for masts of ships, some very tall and great.

"That WOULD have been a joke on Mr. Bansemer," he said indifferently. "I don't think he would have enjoyed it, do you?" "No one enjoys j okes from the United States Marshal's office," said Droom grimly. "By the way, who is the lawyer that really was wanted?" "I never heard. I believe it was dropped. The young fellow I know said he couldn't talk about it, so I didn't ask.

All along as we went we found the way as well beaten and frequented as can be, the fairest and best countrey that possibly can be seene, full of as goodly great Okes as are in any wood in France, vnder which the ground was all couered ouer with faire Akornes.

My fancy pictured very vividly the five or six little Okes that man certainly must have at least five children the aunts, and sisters-in-law, and cousins; the eternal routine of afternoon tea and lawn-tennis; above all, it pictured Mrs. Oke, the bouncing, well-informed, model housekeeper, electioneering, charity-organising young lady, whom such an individual as Mr.

They say that in one of these fits, just shortly before his death, he told the whole story of the murder, and made a prophecy that when the head of his house and master of Okehurst should marry another Alice Oke descended from himself and his wife, there should be an end of the Okes of Okehurst. You see, it seems to be coming true. We have no children, and I don't suppose we shall ever have any.
