The girl's cheeks were rosy, her eyes were sparkling; she warmly greeted first one partner, then the other. Pausing, she sniffed the air hungrily. "Goody!" she cried. "We're just in time. And we're as hungry as bears." "Dis gal 'ain't never got 'nough to eat since she's seeck in W'ite 'Orse," 'Poleon laughed. "For las' hour she's been sayin': 'Hurry! Hurry!
For I'm sure he's very good to you, Billy, isn't he?" "'Tain't no concern of yourn," responded my genial guardian. After this there was a long silence, and I was getting drowsy, when Billy said, "That there 'orse was a-goin' it." "What horse?" "Why, as if you didn't know! That there 'orse as was drivin' you blokes a' Monday night." "What, did you see us, then?" I asked. "In corse I did.
"No, we sha'n't," said Mr. Nappie, "nor yet in two hours. I've asked what's your name?" "My name is Greystock." "Greystockings," said Mr. Nappie more angrily than ever. "I don't believe in no such name. Where do you live?" Then somebody whispered a word to him. "Member of Parliament, is he? I don't care a . A member of Parliament isn't to steal my 'orse off the rail, and him booked to Kilmarnock.
I was glad Mrs. Woodburn wasn't there to hear. Jaggers had him out on the mat afore 'em all. Said he'd been caught nappin' by a boy with a face like a girl, too. Putnam 'orse and all. That got ole Chukkers' tail up. He made trouble in the weighin'-room. Said Albert had done him a dirty dish; but you can't go to the Stewards on that.
It's 'orse-nobbling; that's what it is. Is there any police here, sir?" This he said, turning round to a farmer. The farmer didn't deign any reply. "Perhaps you'll tell me your name, sir? if you've got a name. No gen'leman ever took a gen'leman's 'orse off the rail like that." "Oh, Frank, do come away," said Lizzie, who was standing by. "We shall be all right in two minutes," said Frank.
I think, my Lord Duke, that any one you may ask will tell you that I know what running is. Well; I can assure you, your Grace, that is, that since I've seen 'orses I've never seen a 'orse fitter than him. When he got his canter that morning, it was nearly even betting. Not that I or Silverbridge were fools enough to put on anything at that rate. But I never saw a 'orse so bad ridden.
You'll remember V'istlin' Dick, p'r'aps, the leary, flash cove as you give such a leveller to, the first time as ever I clapped my day-lights on ye?" "Yes, I remember him." "Veil sir, e's been and took, and gone, and got 'isself kicked to death by an 'orse!" "Eh, a horse?" exclaimed Barnabas, starting. "An 'orse, sir, yes.
"You must know, then," he began, with an impressive rap on the lid of his snuffbox, "'bout three o'clock 's arternoon I were sittin' on the stile by Simon's five-acre field when along the road comes a lady, 'an'some an' proud-looking, an' as fine as fine could be, a-ridin' of a 'orse, an' wi' a servant ridin' another 'orse be'ind 'er.
He walked all the way so as to 'ave more time for thinking, but wot with bumping into two old gentlemen with bad tempers, and being nearly run over by a cabman with a white 'orse and red whiskers, he got to the house without 'aving thought of anything. They was just finishing their tea as 'e got there, and they all seemed so pleased to see 'im that it made it worse than ever for 'im. Mrs.
Pepper's little 'orse, I suppose, sir?" he said, addressing himself to the young Squire. "Certainly, I told Larking I would." "Exactly, Mr. Newton. And Banker might as well go out as second." "I said Brewer. Banker was out on Friday." "That won't be no odds, Mr. Newton. The fact is. Brewer's legs is a little puffed." "All right," said the Squire.
