He told the doctor and master that Miss Myatt was took with one of them attacks at half-past eleven o'clock, and he went for Dr. Adams as lives at the top of Oldcastle Street. Dr. Adams wasn't in, and then he saw a cab it must have been coming from the ball, ma'am, but Mr. Myatt didn't know as there was any ball and he drove up to Hillport for Dr. Hawley, him being the family doctor.
"Who is that gentleman," I asked, "who came out just now?" "That is Mr Stoddart, sir," he answered. I thought I had heard the name in the neighbourhood before. "Is it he who plays the organ?" I asked. "That he do, sir. He's played our organ for the last ten year, ever since he come to live at the Hall." "What Hall?" "Why the Hall, to be sure, Oldcastle Hall, you know."
Sir John Oldcastle is the compound piecework of four minor playwrights, one of them afterwards and otherwise eminent as a poet Munday, Drayton, Wilson, and Hathaway: a thin sample of poetic patchery cobbled up and stitched together so as to serve its hour for a season without falling to pieces at the first touch.

Of course, he travelled free; and of course he stopped the car when, its conductor being inside, two ladies signalled to it at the bottom of Oldcastle Street.
Oldcastle was never what is called a flirt, and I believe the general tone of our conversations was sufficiently rational. Yet I will not deny that there were times on the balcony of the Galle Face Hotel in Colombo, and on the Oronta's promenade deck by moonlight when my attitude towards this charming lady was definitely tinged by sentiment.
And thinking of Mrs Oldcastle, I saw that in ourselves we could be sure of no safety, not from the worst and vilest sins; for who could tell how he might not stupify himself by degrees, and by one action after another, each a little worse than the former, till the very fires of Sinai would not flash into eyes blinded with the incense arising to the golden calf of his worship?
"You have lost all a mother's rights by ceasing to behave like a mother, Miss Oldcastle will never more do anything in obedience to your commands, whatever she may do in compliance with your wishes." "Allow me to remark," said Captain Everard, with attempted nonchalance, "that that is strange doctrine for your cloth."
At the door of the apartment house she was told that Miss Oldcastle could not be seen, but, after sending up her card and waiting a few moments in the hall before a desk which reminded her of a gilded squirrel-cage, she was escorted to the elevator and borne upward to the ninth landing.
Povey, having executed mysterious movements in the shop after Cyril's departure to school, jammed his hat on his head and ran forth in pursuit of Cyril, whom he intercepted with two other boys, at the corner of Oldcastle Street and Acre Passage. Cyril stood as if turned into salt. "Come back home!" said Mr. Povey, grimly; and for the sake of the other boys: "Please."
