"It was long ago, when Madam Chartley was Alicia Raeburn, and I was a bashful little English schoolgirl at St. Agnes Hall. Alicia had come from America to visit her uncle, who was proctor of the cathedral. His grounds joined the school premises on the south, and I often used to peep through the hedge and watch her strolling around the garden.
And he related in a way that made Dad's eyes glisten and Joe's mouth open, how, with a knocked-up wrist, he shore beside Proctor and big Andy Purcell, at Welltown, and rung the shed by half a sheep. Dad ardently admired Dan. Dan was only going to stay a short while at home, he said, then was off West again.
In 1887, Proctor Knott, Governor of Kentucky, said in his message, of the Logan-Toliver feud: "Though composed of only a small portion of the community, these factions have succeeded by their violence in overawing and silencing the voice of the peaceful element, and in intimidating the officers of the law.
They then turned him on his face upon the bed; and taking a lively ram cat out of a bag which they brought with them, they set the cat between the proctor's shoulders. The beast, being nearly as much terrified as the proctor, would endeavour to get off; but being held fast by the tail, he intrenched every claw deep in the proctor's back, in order to keep up a firm resistance to the White Boys.
"I think it is quite just that some provision should be made for that." And then there was a pause. Frank Wentworth was sufficiently aware after his first start of indignation that he had no right to interfere, as Mr Proctor said, between the Miss Wodehouses and their interest.

He said this, seizing the moment after Sarah had removed the salmon, which was very good, and was served with a sauce which pleased Mr Proctor all the more that he had not expected much from an impromptu dinner furnished by a Perpetual Curate; but the fact was, that Gerald's arrival had awakened Mrs Hadwin to a proper regard for her own credit, which was at stake.
"Even so; you will have no objection, I trust, to let me know something of the nature of it even now." "It is impossible!" replied the proctor, "quite out of my power; if I breathe a syllable about it, the whole matter must be blown before the proper time, and then " "Well, and what then? proceed."
"I haf been thinking of that bond," he began, waving a pudgy hand toward a seat, "and I haf been talking with Proctor." "Yes," said Orde hopefully. "I suppose you would not be prepared to gif a bond?" "I hardly think so." "Vell, suppose ve fix him this way," went on Heinzman, clasping his hands over his stomach and beaming through his spectacles.
