I was at Cahors in 1580 in the great street fight; and there women were killed, I was with Chatillon nine years later, when he rode through the Faubourgs of Paris, with this very day and his father Coligny in his mind, and gave no quarter. I was at Courtas and Ivry, and more than once have seen prisoners led out to be piked in batches ay, and by hundreds!

Jessamie had graduated from the university where Barbie was goin', at the close of Barbie's first year. They had met, an' remembered each other; an' as soon as the news of the doin's had reached the Diamond Dot, of course Barbie piked over to make a call.

Wolfe, drove into the street. The vehicle was stopped, and the Chief Justice was immediately piked by a man in the crowd whose son he had some time previously condemned to execution. The clergyman also was pulled out of the carriage and put to death.

And masterly was that inspiration that made Joseph chorus to a drama that moves above good and evil. "'Thank Hivin for all!" says Joseph. "'All warks togither for gooid, to them as is chozzen and piked out fro' the rubbidge.

The men who had spread this calumny through an ignorant and excitable Catholic population, were assuredly not less truly murderers than those who had fired the barn at Scullabogue or piked the Protestants on Wexford Bridge." A strong party, however, led by Lord Clare were in favour of clemency wherever possible; and there seemed good reason for hoping that the rebellion would slowly die out.

"I just piked out of Saco, Maine, like a bear with a sore head, and come down here to New York. For three months I 'ain't sent sign nor sound to the home people, but she was bound to catch up with me. And, by jinks! she just did. Wonder how many other Baldwin pippins are taking the glad tidings round the country. I'd give a nickel apiece for a million of 'em."

He has a prisoner now whom I want to help if I can the young man I told you about, who saved me from being piked in the street to-day. I would to God he could have saved you, too." "That's past praying for now," said Lord O'Neill, "but you're right, Eustace, you're right. Save him from the hangman if you can. There's been blood enough shed to-day Irish blood, Irish blood.

We should certainly have been piked if it had not been for Neal." Neal lifted the wounded boy over the churchyard wall and knelt beside him on the grass. "Where are you hit?" he said. "It's my leg, the calf of my leg, but it's no that bad, I could get along a bit, yet." The English infantry opened a furious fire on M'Cracken's pikemen, who stood around the cannon they captured.

She was accustomed to the peremptory measures of her parents. "Jake Ransom run him out. He just piked off after he got his money order cashed last Saturday mornin'." "And you expect me to take a school that's all upside down from that kind of handling and me without any experience?" "You'll take it an' You'll do your best, an' we won't hear no more about it. Here, ma, tie up this finger," Mr.
