There they might possibly be usefully employed in cutting off access to the French army at Plaisance, and at the same time supplying their own wants, while deliberating on what plan to carry on the struggle, under the new circumstances, till August; for, whatever treachery and defection might have to be encountered elsewhere, there was never a moment's doubt that Nature would prove a faithful ally, when her appointed season came.
The rays of the descending sun casting rosy reflections on the beautiful panorama and the mammoth Ferris Wheel, with its gigantic form overtowering the structures of the Midway Plaisance gave us the signal for abandoning this charming realm.
On survey of La Plaisance Bay, in the Territory of Michigan.
If it was true that he knew the owner of the black bag, why not question him carelessly, of course? Perhaps well, perhaps he knew Monsieur Voisin also. I could hardly have given myself a reason for this sudden anxiety, but it was there, and it sent me straight down Midway Plaisance, as nearly in my former tracks as was possible.
It was a quaint old plaisance shut in with high walls, which were covered with fruit trees, where downy peaches, and nectarines, and golden apricots, and big yellow plums nestled their sun-kissed cheeks against the warm red bricks.
The argument wuz a middlin' good one, though I felt that there wuzn't no danger. But he went on ahead, and I had to foller on after him, like two old ducks goin' to water.

And Julie Hamon sprang to her feet with blazing eyes, pointed a shaking hand at Gard, and screamed: "Murderer! Murderer! Murderer!" Stephen Gard walked slowly down the road towards Plaisance in the lowest of spirits. This strange people amongst whom he had fallen, possessed, in pre-eminent degree, what in these later times is known as the defects of its qualities.
On the south side of the house was the old garden or plaisance, sloping down to the Medway, where, in those English summers of three hundred years ago, when the cruel fires of Mary were busily burning at Smithfield, the lovely boy Philip, fair-featured, with a high forehead and ruddy brown hair, almost red the same color as that of his nephew Algernon walked with his shy mother, picking daisies and chasing butterflies, and calling to her in a soft, musical voice; while within the house the grave father, when he was not away in Wales, of which he was lord- president, mused upon great events that were stirring in Europe the abdication of Charles V., the fall of Calais, and the accession of Queen Elizabeth to the throne of England.
They made haste to leave the useful aspects of the fair, and had themselves trundled away to the Colonial Exhibit, where they vaguely expected something like the agreeable corruptions of the Midway Plaisance.
