After posting Ruger there to hold the cross roads Schofield returned to Spring Hill, where he arrived about midnight at the same time with the advance of Cox's division coming from Duck river. With this division he then hurried through to Franklin, picking up Ruger as he passed along, and thus saddling Stanley with all the risk of saving the artillery and the trains.
Now to have done with this and return to the Bestiary; for I want to finish this work before I go." And posting himself in front of the cathedral, he studied the south porch, which had most of zoological mysticism and devilries. But he did not find the monstrosities of his fancy. At Chartres the Vices and Virtues were not symbolized by more or less chimerical creatures, but by human faces.
Tell the general you loaned your rifle to someone for a hunt. While you are gone I will send back to the Post for it." I got a gun from John Nelson, and marched to the general's headquarters, where I shot the match. It resulted in his favor. General Duncan, who had never before commanded the Pawnee Scouts, confused them by posting the guards in a manner that was new to them.
The blast of the postillion's horn on the dark highway moved Chillon to say: 'This is what they call posting, my dear. She replied: 'Tell me, brother: I do not understand, "Let none these marks efface," at the commencement, after most "picturesque of Castles": that is you. 'They are quoted from the verses of a lord who was a poet, addressed to the castle on Lake Leman.
"Why, you stupid son of a boot-top, we have been posting on all night like the devil, and all this time the coach has been ten miles behind us." "Well, we've cotch them any how," said the urchin, as he disengaged himself from his wet saddle, and stood upon the ground; "and it is not my fault that the coach is not before us."
The posting of the Five Armies this Winter Five of them in Germany, not counting the Russians, who have vanished to Cimmeria over the horizon, for their months of rest is something wonderful, and strikes the picturesque imagination. Such a Chain of Posts, for length, if for nothing else!
So we came to town rather dismally in the carriage, posting the whole way; for the carriage must be brought, and a person of my aunt's rank in life could not travel by the stage. And I had to pay 14l. for the posters, which pretty nearly exhausted all my little hoard of cash. First we went into lodgings, into three sets in three weeks.
Not knowing the young ladies' brothers, upon their speaking to them at Church, she gave notice of it to the husband of her whom she attended, and he immediately posting to his neighbour, the woman told them both that their wives, notwithstanding all she could say, were talking to two well-dressed cavaliers, which the duenna who waited on the other, notwithstanding the duties of her post, saw without taking any notice.
We have seen the result above. It is as if Descartes had decided that a certain room full of people did not appear to be free from suspicious characters, and had cleared out every one, afterwards posting himself at the door to readmit only those who proved themselves worthy. When we examine those who succeeded in passing muster, we discover he has favored all his old friends.
Our guns have taken up another position farther on. The Captain asked after the broken whip, and told us we could not have gone into action better. He has been riding about all day on his stumpy little Argentine, radiant and beaming, with his eternal pipe in his mouth! This operation, and the business of posting the troops for the night, is horribly tedious.
