Morgan pulled a Greek lexicon toward him he used a Greek-German to look out a word, instead of asking it of Pemberton. "You can't go on like this, you know." "Like what, my boy?" "You know they don't pay you up," said Morgan, blushing and turning his leaves. "Don't pay me?" Pemberton stared again and feigned amazement. "What on earth put that into your head?"
The consequence was that all I remember about a stockholder is that he's a kind of man with wibbly-wabbly knees and feet that wants to swap sides, who spends his time hiccupin' up and down the mine trails, findin' specimens when and where old man Davis wills. "William Pemberton smote his forehead with the flat of his hand everything took hold of William so vi'lent.
It might have been a quarter of an hour went by, and it was past time when Pemberton or Stevey Todd should be getting the supper ready, when there came a sudden tumult in the hall without, and some one bounced in, the snow flying after him, and he cried, "I've eloped and I want a minister!"

Lieutenant Belt, imitating his example, brought forward Ellen's steed, and was delighted to find that she accepted his services, poor Archie being compelled to fall into the rear.
He did not at all believe that Tom Delamere would make a fit husband for Clara Pemberton; but his opinion would have had no weight, he could hardly have expressed it without showing his own interest. Moreover, there was no element of the sneak in Lee Ellis's make-up.
Pemberton wondered how the princes could ever propose in that tone and so publicly: he took for granted cynically that this was what was desired of them.
