Mr. Quail, then, was off to shoot grouse on a moor he had taken in Mull for the season; the house and estate are well known to all of us; I will disguise the moor under the pseudonym or nom de guerre of "Othello". He was awaited at "Othello" on the evening of the eleventh; for on the one hand there is an Act most strictly observed that not a grouse may be shot until the dawn of August 12th, and on the other a day passed at "Othello" with any other occupation but that of shooting would be hell.
His pen hovered threateningly over it, and finally he struck it out and wrote instead: 'Paterfamilias. He felt that this pseudonym was perhaps a little inapposite, but some impulse stronger than himself forced him to employ it. 'But haven't I told you that I was just writing the very name when Annie came in to warn me? Mr.
Voltaire having been initiated into the state secret by the Marquis de Richelieu, we may be permitted to suspect that being naturally indiscreet he published the truth from behind the shelter of a pseudonym, or at least gave a version which approached the truth, but later on realising the dangerous significance of his words, he preserved for the future complete silence.
To have been as well appreciated here as at home; to have written for the oldest comic Journal in the English language, received mention with Hood, with Jerrold and Hook, and to have my picture and my pseudonym as common in London as in New York, is enough for "Yours truly, "A. Ward."
Helene Vauquier reflected. "I think Adele was the name," she said in a more doubtful tone. "It sounded like Adele." The irrepressible Mr. Ricardo was impelled to intervene.

Hanaud turned to him with a savage grin.
On leaving Yale, he was delivered of a volume of juvenile poems, and then settled down in Boston to four years' journalistic work. Samuel Goodrich, better known in England under his pseudonym of 'Peter Parley, engaged him to edit some annuals and gift-books, an employment which the young man found particularly congenial.

"Oh, really," said Mangan to his companion, as they were leaving their coats and hats. "I always thought 'Gabrielle Grey' was the pseudonym of an elderly clergyman's widow, or somebody of that kind."
Even without this considerable addition to his tasks, Bacon is wonderful enough, but with it he needs the sturdy faith of the Rationalist to accept him and his plot to write plays under the pseudonym of "William Shakespeare." Talk of miracles as things which do not happen!
'Paul Fiske' may even be the pseudonym of a woman." The Earl rose from his place. "This afternoon," he announced, "I read the latest article of this Paul Fiske. In my opinion he is an exceedingly mischievous person, without the slightest comprehension of the forces which really count in government." The Bishop's eyes twinkled as he left the room with his hand on his godson's arm.
The chapel will never be full till a candle is set up before which all the others will pale. It will be the tallest candle of all." Her mild wonder rested on him. "What candle do you mean?" "I mean, dear lady, my own." He had learned after a long time that she earned money by her pen, writing under a pseudonym she never disclosed in magazines he never saw.
