I asked a tall young lady at the hotel, who brought in some very salt fish that took the skin off the roof of my mouth, if she could recommend the society of these villages, and if she would favour me with her opinion as to which would be the best place to select as a residence, and she said, "The people there are an 'orrid lot."
"Ugh!" grunted cook, with a shudder of disgust. "That was over the veal cutlets," said Sam thoughtfully. "And what did Mr Landon say? He ought to have known better than to talk about such 'orrid stuff over his meals." "Him?" said Sam, with a grin of contempt; "why, he's worse than master." "He couldn't be, Sam." "Couldn't? But he is. Master does talk about live people as he does good to.
Marriage is the only life." "'Never for me!" Rokeby quoted Julia. "Awful girl!" said Osborn, referring to her briefly. "'Orrid female. What?" "Very handsome," said Rokeby. "Handsome! I've never seen it. She's not to be compared to Marie, anyway. You haven't answered my question. Don't you think I'm lucky?"
It's very hard, after all the risk. I quite agree with Mr. Hart in what he says about the squire. Such a piece of premeditated dishonesty for robbing gentlemen of their property I never before heard. It's awful." "'Orrid old man!" said Mr. Hart. "Just so. But half a loaf is better than no bread. Now, here is a list, prepared in Mr. Grey's chambers." "'E's another, nigh as 'orrid."
"It's the jumps, Bill," gasped the other, "the 'orrors they've got me and no mistake. As I'm a livin' man, as I was a shovin' of that there truck, I saw a imp a gashly imp, Bill, stick its hugly 'ed over the side and say, 'Tommy, it ses, jest like that it ses, 'Tommy, I wants you! I dursn't go near it, Bill. I'll get leave, and go 'ome and lay up it glared at me so 'orrid, Bill, and grinned ugh!
"I beg pardon, me lord," he said. "It was coming on you sudden in them things. I never thought to see you, me lord, in hotomobeel clothes you who always was so down on the 'orrid machines." "Well, help me out of them," I answered, feeling the justice of Locker's implied rebuke.
"Oh, gentlemen! gentlemen!" exclaimed Mr. Jorrocks, brightening up as he recognised the boat, "take compassion on a most misfortunate indiwidual here have I been in this 'orrid 'oy, ever since three o'clock yesterday afternoon and here I seem likely to end my days for blow me tight if I couldn't swim as fast as it goes."
She says three of those 'orrid fishcarts have gone by in the last hour, sir, and they are making her very nervous. That's all, sir." "Tell her I've bought it," snapped the head of the house. "Get out." The butler obeyed orders. Colton turned to me. "You heard that, Paine," he said. "That's my reason, the principal one. I bought this place principally on account of Mrs. Colton's health.
T' Colonel's Laady says: "Well, Learoyd, I doan't agree wi' you, but you're right in a way o' speeakin', an' I should like yo' to tek Rip out a-walkin' wi' you sometimes; but yo' maun't let him fight, nor chase cats, nor do nowt 'orrid;" an' them was her very wods.
