It was droll for a tiny boy to wear such heavy clogs upon his feet, but droller still to see him resting his curly head upon the horse's mane. "Ums the Charlie boy," said Katie; "um can't sit up no more." "Ah, my boy, seems to me you take it very easy," said Abner, who was just coming in from the garden, giving some weeds a ride in the "one-wheeled coach," or wheel-barrow.
Afterwards I shall inform thee of the object that has brought me hither!"" ""The Brahmana said, 'Thou goest away for dragging the one-wheeled car of Vivaswat according to thy turn. It behoveth thee to describe to me anything wonderful that thou mayst have noticed in those regions through which thou sojournest! ""The Naga said, 'The divine Surya is the refuge or home of innumerable wonders.
Slim and the Captain, still in their roles of mammy and pickaninny, walked home with the Winnebagos when the party finally broke up, the pickaninny trundling his own one-wheeled chariot, which was so full of presents there was no room for him. Nyoda broke the news to them of their appointment as executioners of Kaiser Bill and they accepted the commission gravely.
Another of Edgeworth's inventions was a one-wheeled carriage adapted to go over narrow roads; it was made fast by shafts to the horse's sides, and was furnished with two weights or counterpoises that hung below the shafts.

Wish I was in Portland; see 'f I wouldn't go to Tate Penny's, and have some salmon and ice-cream!"
Boys and girls, too, meet you and stare at you, or overtake you at a great pace and almost run past you, with an enquiring backward glance, each carrying something mostly grapes or figs. Out at last, by the little chapel, upon what is the beginning of an inland carriage road in a land where even the one-wheeled wheelbarrow has never been seen.
There was now a one-wheeled cart and a three-legged horse requiring Christian's tenderest attention; and as she sat down on the crimson sofa, and busied herself over them, with the little eager face creeping close to hers, and the little fat arm steadying itself round her neck, her wet eyes soon grew dry and bright, and her heart less sore, less hopeless.
