Perhaps a northern angler will never quite master the delicacy of this sport, nor acquire the entomological knowledge which seems to be necessary, nor make up his mind between the partisans of the light one-handed rod and the double-handed rod. Literature knows no Trades Unions, but if things go on as they are at present, perhaps we shall hear of literary rattening and picketing.
The Rappahannock river flowed between the Yankee and the Rebel armies, each picketing its own side of the stream. By common consent there was no shooting across the river, but on the other hand there was an occasional exchange of tobacco and coffee by means of little boats. We could hear them impudently singing: "O soldiers, won't you meet us."
His face wore its usual genial expression as he entered the elevator, and Robert's "good morning" was particularly cheerful. The Governor's first caller was Mr. Acton. "You see," he began, "that your approval of the picketing bill is receiving universal condemnation." "Hardly," was the reply. "Two papers and the Governor sustain it and the labour press and unions are yet to be heard from."
Since that night in the court, she had come early and stayed until ten in the evening, doing what work she could. And there was much to be done she found a profitable task in instructing new recruits in the rules of picketing and also in investigating cases of need. These took her to strange places.
The Party had also to combat the actions of the "militant" suffragists, whose headquarters were in Washington and whose picketing of the White House and attacks on President Wilson and other public men displeased many people who did not discriminate between the large constructive branch of the suffrage movement and the small radical branch.
Friday, March 3, A.M. I was interrupted when writing yesterday and continue my story this morning.... In the middle of the night at 4.30 Bowers got out of the tent and discovered the ice had broken all round him: a crack ran under the picketing line, and one pony had disappeared.
But afterward, on their own admission, which was most disarming in its candor, they became careless and "too gay." They went picketing in too large numbers and were too noisy. Instantly the firm employed police.
While it was still light they came out on another meadow. Nesis signed to Colina that they should halt at the edge of the trees on the other side, and, picketing the horses, let them graze for a little while. It was done. The horses had to feed and rest, and this looked like as good a place as any.
They also had a couple of jack-rabbits for food in case of a siege, and the perpendicular walls of the front of the rock made them a natural fortification, an almost impregnable one against Indians. They succeeded in securely picketing their animals at the side of the rock, where they could protect them by their unerring rifles from being stampeded.
When the new-comers reached a moderately-sized log-cabin, which was the chief hotel of the colony, they found it in all the bustle of preparation for an immediate and simple, though substantial, meal. "Can we have dinner!" inquired Ned, entering this house of entertainment, while his companions were unsaddling and picketing their horses and mules.
