S. Herbert Ross, whom she had known as advertising-manager of the Gas and Motor Gazette, had been appointed advertising-manager for Pemberton's the greatest manufactory of drugs and toilet articles in the world. Una had just been informed by Mr.
We must take care in the mean time that the rebels do not see him, or they will know that by some means or other he got in, and will be on the watch for him. We may depend on Pemberton's carrying out his plan, and I should advise that the attempt be made in the night-time." Quashie was rather disappointed at finding that he was not to set off at once, as he was eager to get his dollar.
They learned to know their Paris, which was useful, for they came back another year for a longer stay, the general character of which in Pemberton's memory to-day mixes pitiably and confusedly with that of the first. He sees Morgan's shabby knickerbockers the everlasting pair that didn't match his blouse and that as he grew longer could only grow faded.
She preferred to rest here rather than in the "club-room and rest-room for women employees," on which Mr. Pemberton so prided himself. Una heard rumors of rest-rooms which were really beautiful, really restful; but at Pemberton's the room resembled a Far Rockaway cottage rented by the week to feeble-minded bookkeepers.
I did not understand her then I thought they were bruises received in life and wondered what she meant as well as I could conjecture at such a time of bewilderment; but still I resolutely refused to leave my dear one's side, sobbing passionately when Mr. Lodore came in to take me away at last, in obedience to Dr. Pemberton's orders. "Come, Miriam, this will never do," he said.
Indeed, from the unwillingness of the crown lawyers to put the Clerk of the Council into the witness box, and from the vehemence with which they objected to Pemberton's cross examination, it is plain that they were themselves of this opinion. However, the handwriting was now proved. But a new and serious objection was raised.
He came in; and what he had to tell will interest the reader as well as his mother and his brother. Tom Somers was an enterprising young man, as our readers have already discovered; and when the door of the finished room in the attic of Squire Pemberton's house was fastened upon him, he was not at all disposed to submit to the fate which appeared to be in store for him.
The captain, however, the next day had greatly recovered; and while Miss Pemberton was seated in the drawing-room, Clara being with her father, Mr and Mrs Lerew were announced. Mrs Lerew advancing, took Miss Pemberton's hand, and sank into a seat, her husband following with the most obsequious of bows and blandest of smiles.
"Do you know what has happened?" he said in a low tone to the two lads. "Yes, there was a big battle at Gettysburg, and as we failed to win it we're now retreating," replied Harry. "That's true as far as it goes, but it's not all. We've heard and the news is correct beyond a doubt that Grant has taken Vicksburg and Pemberton's army with it." "Good God, Sherburne, it can't be so!"
They were riding at present through forests themselves, and they felt that their ignorance of the country might take them at any moment into an ambush. "We know what army we're going against, don't we?" asked Pennington. "Why, Pemberton's, of course," replied Dick. "I'm glad of that. I'd rather fight him than Joe Johnston." "They've been trying to unite, but we hear they haven't succeeded."
