They whizzed perilously near Ethelinda's head. "There!" exclaimed Mary, choking back the angry tremble in her voice. "I'm worn out trying to keep this room in order for order's sake!
But it was "Bud," her younger son, who had come rushing down to the surgeon's quarters only a few minutes before parade with the all-important news. "Mither! Geordie!" he cried, "Captain Cross says the assignment order's come and will be published at parade. Hurry up!" Dr. Graham could hardly believe it. As McCrea said, the War Department seldom issued the order before mid-July.
The constant wars between Spain and France in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries led to constant troubles at Malta, and the Grand Masters throughout this period had great and increasing difficulty in preserving the Order's neutrality. Many Knights broke their Oath of Obedience by enlisting in the French and Spanish armies.

And said, "The dragon that this land Laid waste, thou slew'st with daring hand; Although the people's idol thou, The Order's foe I deem thee now.
All the people down there are crazy about you now. You got the house a hundred-thousand-dollar order. You don't suppose anybody in business bothers about how an order's got do you?" "It's the way I feel not the way they feel." "As for the women down there of course, there's some that pretend they won't do that sort of thing.

Their fixing here cannot be called anything so vigorous as their last stand; but, without specific reference to the easy-chairs in their chapter-house, it may be fitly called their last seat; and, if it is true that none of plebeian blood may enjoy the order's privileges, the place will afford another of those satisfactions which the best of all possible worlds is always offering its admirers.
He was looking forward to her initiation into the White Order, and the fact that he had trained her himself would make that doubly enjoyable.
