He must bring back the baroness before noon. Your master is dying. He would have turned away, but the man detained him with a question he did not hear at first. 'What did you say? he asked. 'A messenger has just come from Sigmundskron to inquire, the servant said. 'I will see him. Give the order to Karl quickly, said Rex. In the hall a queer-looking man was brought to him.
He was surprised to find himself shaking hands with a pleasant, unassuming woman of distinct good looks. Hillyard was presented to Dennis and Miranda Brown, a young couple two years married, and to Mr. Harold Jupp, a man of Hillyard's age. Harold Jupp was a queer-looking person with a long, thin, brown face, and a straight, wide mouth too close to a small pointed chin.
"Only some folks out of a hack, that was kept waiting, and couldn't draw up whilst my Lady Di.'s carriage was at the door," said Jesse. "A good pretty girl, the foremost," said Mrs. Puffit. "But, in the name of wonder, what's that odd fish coming behind her?" "A queer-looking pair, in good truth!" said Jesse. Angelina seated herself, and gave a deep sigh.
Looking up in alarm they saw him dancing about on the deck holding his arm as if in great pain, while in front of him on the deck a queer-looking, flat fish with a long barbed tail flopped about, its great goggle eyes projecting hideously. Frank ran forward to pick up the creature and throw it overboard, but as he grasped it he experienced a shock that knocked him head over heels.
Miss Dora Bannister, who had come down to see a friend off, noticed the two standing on the platform. She did not know who they were, but she thought the one to be a very handsome young man, and the other a nice-looking girl who seemed to be all eyes. "What a queer-looking colored man!" said Miriam. "He looks mashed on top."
At great expense the Taffy King had terraced the bluff and had made to grow several blades of grass where none at all had been able to gain root before. The girls saw the queer-looking Betty Gallup helping their brother out of the sloop. "Say! something's happened to Ford, I guess," Cecile cried, stopping the car short of the porte-cochere. "Run down and see," commanded Marian languidly.
"If you ask him Paddy will tell you that that tail is the handiest tail in the Green Forest," said she. "There isn't another like it in all the Great World, and if you'll be patient you will see just how handy it is." It was a queer-looking tail. It was broad and thick and flat, oval in shape, and covered with scales instead of hair. Just then Jumper the Hare made a discovery.
"She had driven over from Cleeve." "Well, then, I must have seen her," said Aunt Charlotte. "A queer-looking old person in a great bonnet. I happened to be walking through the village, and she stopped the fly to ask me the way to the Court, and I remember wondering who she could possibly be. I suppose it was she whom you met there."
Japan must indeed be a paradise for children to judge from the great number of playthings which are manufactured there. The queer-looking Japanese musical instruments, and their beautiful works of art were interesting. The Japanese books are very odd. There are forty-seven letters in their alphabets. Prof. Morse knows a great deal about Japan, and is very kind and wise.
Bunting took off it a large Bible, which had been given to her as a wedding present by a married lady with whose mother she had lived for several years. "He said it would do quite well when you take up his supper," said Bunting; and, then, "Ellen? He's a queer-looking cove not like any gentleman I ever had to do with." "He is a gentleman," said Mrs. Bunting rather fiercely.
