John Palmer, the actor who died on the stage of the Theatre Royal, Liverpool now used for the purpose of a cold storage after uttering, in the part of "The Stranger," the words "There is another and a better world," found that, after building his theatre, the Royalty, in Wellclose Square, that he was prohibited its use, used to give Pantomimic representations, and just in a similar way as what the minor theatres did, as mentioned above.
While discussing it, the old man tried hard to make himself understood by signs; most of which were so excessively ludicrous that we made no doubt he was perpetrating a series of pantomimic jokes.
And here I cannot help noticing the kindness of Providence in creating comets for the great relief of bewildered philosophers. By their assistance more sudden evolutions and transitions are effected in the system of nature than are wrought in a pantomimic exhibition by the wonder-working sword of harlequin.
Bartow was an innocent witness of this crime, and, having nothing to fear, may be trusted to reproduce in his pantomimic action its exact features." "Very good. Continue, madam. Nothing but profit is likely to follow an argument presented by Miss Butterworth."
Big Dan, drinkum, drinkum," and he made a pantomimic gesture with his hand as if tossing off a dram. Black Jackum gave a sharp glance aft to make sure that his white chief was not on deck, and then, grinning with delight, he imitated Bostock's action with his doubled hand as if drinking.

"Four," whispered Pennoyer and Wrinkles.
In the Masques the Pantomimic dances of the Masquers were known as motions: "In curious knot and mazes so The Spring at first was taught to go; And Zephyr, when he came to woo His Flora had his motions too; And thus did Venus learn to lead The Idalian brawls, and so to tread, As if the wind, not she did walk, Nor press'd a flower, nor bow'd a stalk."
I must be off now. Good-by." Major Stuart jumped to his feet with great alacrity, and warmly shook hands with the departing stranger. Then, when the door was shut, he went through a pantomimic expression of bringing down innumerable pheasants from every corner of the ceiling with an occasional aim at the floor, where an imaginary hare was scurrying by.

Her observation was illustrated the moment after they had left her in the rear; for a gentleman suddenly sprang across the pavement, jumped into a cab, and was whirled away, with as much apparent magic to provincial eyes, as if a pantomimic trick had been performed. Rhoda pressed forward a step in advance of her father. "It may have been her husband," she thought, and trembled.

Anny minute I'm on the job I'd be lookin' to see some bull with a star on 'im holdin' a gun on me; and after that, it's this f'r mine" with a jerk of the head and a pantomimic gesture simulating the hangman's knot under his ear. "That is your risk," said Blount coldly, making this small concession to the expiring sense of uprightness.
