At the lower end the street expands into a handsome platz, with young shade trees, plats of grass, and gay beds of flowers. I look out on it as I write; and I see across the Isar the college building begun by Maximilian for the education of government officers; and I see that it is still unfinished, indeed, a staring mass of brick, with unsightly scaffolding and gaping windows.
Shortly after this little surprise, I suppose by way of ratifying the secret treaty of silence, Father Roach gave the officers and Toole a grand Lent dinner of fish, with no less than nineteen different plats, baked, boiled, stewed, in fact, a very splendid feast; and Puddock talked of some of those dishes more than twenty years afterwards.
This was surveyed, and marked out to them, according to the extent of their purchase, and plats and grants were signed, registered and delivered to them, reserving one shilling quitrent for every hundred acres, to be paid annually to the Proprietors.
He saw before him a land of plenty a vie de cocagne, a miraculous succession of plats couverts, of delicate surprise dishes, of exquisite wines. "If Cousin Pons brings this through," said the President, addressing his wife after Pons had departed, "we ought to settle an income upon him equal to his salary at the theatre."
In not a few instances, where the overseer is particularly harsh and cruel, the negroes have thrown up their old grounds, and taken new ones on other plantations, where the overseer is better liked, or gone into the depths of the mountain forests, where no human foot has been before them, and there cleared up small plats. This was also done to some extent during slavery.
He also made the surveys and located the line between Salt Lake Valley and Green River. P. T. Brown, Assistant Engineer, was in charge of the advance survey under the direction of General Dodge and also located the line from the "foot of the Black Hills" to Julesburg. James A. Evans was Division Engineer and in that capacity made many of the profiles, plats and estimates and final surveys.
"You have the reason, milor," answered the Chevalier, "you have the right Qu'est ce que nous avons a faire avec le temps passe? the time passed did belong to our fathers our ancetres very well the time present is to us they have their pretty tombs with their memories and armorials, all in brass and marbre we have the petits plats exquis, and the soupe-a-Chevalier, which I will cause to mount up immediately."
The European bird that corresponds to our robin is the blackbird, of which Tennyson sings: "O Blackbird, sing me something well; While all the neighbors shoot thee round I keep smooth plats of fruitful ground Where thou may'st warble, eat, and dwell." It quite startled me to see such a resemblance, to see, indeed, a black robin.
In those days the front of the Province House looked upon the street; and the whole site now occupied by the brick range of stores, as well as the present court-yard, was laid out in grass plats, overshadowed by trees and bordered by a wrought-iron fence.
She followed it down, across the orchard, and the little plats where the flowers used to be so bright all summer long. She had not forgotten them. She used to go out in the morning and pick them for her mother, a whole apronful, purple, and pink, and white, with dewdrops on them. She was fit to touch them then. Her mother used to smile when she brought them in. Her mother!
