But there is no need for doubting Ramsay's assertion that Lord Auchinleck had, with tears in his eyes, to implore President Dundas to commit his son to the Tolbooth!
I had a boat down by Ramsay's shop, and I went there to get off. Well, captain, I saw Don John have the same tin trunk I saw in your library." "Are you telling the truth?" "Of course I am. I wouldn't go back on Don John if he hadn't tried to lay it to me. If you search his house and shop, I'll bet you'll find the tin trunk, or some of the money and papers."
But we are supposed to discuss topics of the day, and Dante happened some little while ago. I always wondered what took you to that strange substitute for church; but now I see in it the hand of Providence pointing the way to Miss Ramsay's lecture field. Please persuade your fellow Ethicals that four lectures or even one lecture on Dante will be what Alice Hunt calls an "uplift."
Though it must be admitted that the denudation of the Weald has been a mere trifle, in comparison with that which has removed masses of our palaeozoic strata, in parts ten thousand feet in thickness, as shown in Professor Ramsay's masterly memoir on this subject.
The Yungfraus had gained the whole of the lower deck, but they could do no more; and Ramsay perceived that if he could maintain possession of the upper deck, it was as much as he could expect with such determined assailants. This warfare had been continued during the whole morning, and it was twelve o'clock before the cabin and lower deck had been abandoned by Ramsay's associates.

"Of course everything must be enquired into verified. I go to town to-morrow with Ramsay. Possibly I shall bring him back perhaps to Ramsay's care, for the moment. Possibly, I shall leave him with someone in town." "Couldn't I help," she said, after a moment, "if I stayed?" "No, no!" he said with repugnance, which was almost passion. "I couldn't lay such a burden upon you, or any young creature.
He had personally projected Ramsay's name one night in the hope of breaking the Bassett phalanx, but the only result was to arouse Thatcher's wrath against him. Bassett's men believed in Bassett. The old superstition as to his invulnerability had never more thoroughly possessed the imaginations of his adherents.
The Englishman, and perhaps the Frenchman, may have excelled him in the appreciation of "Ivanhoe" and "Quentin Durward," but we doubt if even the first has equalled him in the cozy enjoyment of the "Antiquary" and "Guy Mannering." And Dean Ramsay's book proves how rich and deep was the foundation in fact of the qualities which Sir Walter has immortalized in fiction.
He only knew that his pockets were empty and that he felt very sick and very miserable. He shut up his little lips now and raised his eyes, with a sort of scowl in their expression, to Miss Ramsay's face. "Where did you get the lollipops and ginger-beer?" repeated the governess. "That's my own business," said Orion. "I'm drefful sick; I want to go to bed."
