"Well, everybody has to have their pesters, and you'll have to take yours," rejoined Miss Persis Tame, taking a pinch of snuff the real Maccaboy twice as large, with twice as fierce an action. "I don't know what it is to bury children, nor to lose a husband; I s'pose I don't; but I know what it is to be jammed round the world and not have a ruff to stick my head under.
"Since it's the last dry bed I'll have fur some time I'm goin' to sleep," said Shif'less Sol plaintively. "Everybody pesters a lazy man, an' I mean to use the little time I hev." "You've a right to it, Sol," said Henry, "because you've walked long and far, and you've brought what we needed most. The sooner you and Tom go to sleep the better. Paul, you join 'em and Jim and I will watch."
Would not Madame be proud to get such a rich gentleman away from her rival Rose Mignon a man, moreover, who was known in all the theaters? "Now make haste, my dear," rejoined Nana, who perfectly understood the situation, "and tell him he pesters me." But suddenly there was a reversion of feeling. Tomorrow she might want him.
Sometimes she begs for a frank criticism, and if the editor is foolish enough to justify his heartless refusal by such a criticism, she pesters the devoted fellow with another long letter of thanks, in which she timidly suggests that he may be able to assist her further, but hopes that he will not trouble to send any answer unless it is quite, quite convenient to him to do so. He doesn't.
Vodka, oats . . ." she muttered, half closing her eyes, "oats, bills, percentages, or, as my head-clerk says, 'percentage. . . . It's awful. Yesterday I simply turned the excise officer out. He pesters me with his Tralles. I said to him: 'Go to the devil with your Tralles! I can't see any one! He kissed my hand and went away. I tell you what: can't your cousin wait two or three months?"
At the same time he pesters Miss Day with his attentions, which Henley, more than half in love with Miss Day himself, resents and determines to rid the troupe of a blackguard. He begins by pretending some friendship for his victim, and after giving out that he is going to town, suggests to the dead man that his absence may be an opportunity for the other to get into Miss Day's good graces.
"'Poor old soul she looks very wretched: what's her name? asked I, carelessly. "'Oh, I never troubled to inquire, Sahib: I believe she was an old servant left behind as lumber, and she pesters every one, day by day, about some 'bonnie bonnie bairn." "In a moment, Emmy, I had seized on dear nurse Mackie!
Smith, one evening, as they were walking home after an ice-cream festival at Doc Weaver's, "I wish somebody would tell that Mr. Hewlitt that I don't want to buy no books. He pesters the life out of me. I can't show myself nowhere but he comes up, all loaded to begin, and if I'd give him half a chance he'd have me buyin' a book in no time. It don't seem to make no difference where I am.
"When one man refuses to be real at all, and the other pesters ye with being too real 'tis time to quit their company and let them fetch up where and how they like." But an O'Connell is never a quitter; and deep down in Patsy's heart was the determination to see the end of the road for all three of them if fate only granted the chance. She came to a cross-roads at length.
Hubbell's trading posts to have kitchen quarters for such as they. In the old days, Quality sat above the salt; Quantity sat below it and slept in rushes spread on the floor.
