That tavern! Will words describe the impression it made on a certain young man from Boston! It was long and low and ramshackly and hot that night as the inside of a brick-kiln. As he drew near it on the single plant walk over the black prairie-mud, he saw countrymen and politicians swarming its narrow porch and narrower hall.
Sometimes he would drop in about nine and remain until half past ten; at other times, it would be nearer midnight before he would turn the knob. As for the shop itself, nothing up and down "The Avenue" was quite as odd, quite as ramshackly, or quite as picturesque.
"I guess I'd better bide har," he murmured to himself, uttering his thoughts aloud. "This air vessel's a durned sight too skittish on her footing to please me, an' that air ramshackly arm o' mine might git squoze agin if I went on deck! No, I guess I'll bide har in the land of Gilead Steward!" he added, raising his voice. "Yes, sir," answered Llewellyn, coming out of his pantry.
Plynlimmon's company on the occasion of the marriage of their sister Margaret." The formula was incredible, but it must soon be printed and sent, and though Wickham Place need not compete with Oniton, it must feed its guests properly, and provide them with sufficient chairs.

The front gate had finally broken, the upper hinge worn out; Ignacio carefully set the ramshackly wooden affair back against the fence, thinking how one of these days he would repair it. Then he went between the bigger pear-tree and the lluvia de oro which his own hands had planted here, and stood with legs well apart considering the three bells upon the easterly arch.
At that moment a small group of men came out of a ramshackly house standing just outside the city gate. Some hobbled; one crawled on his knees. "Lepers!" exclaimed John. "Don't get near them!" The ten sick men came straight toward Jesus. Everyone sighed with relief when they stopped several paces from the band of Galileans. "Unclean! We are unclean!" they called.
The Normans were distant relatives of his Aunt Lavinia. She had other acquaintances in Tipton, but, Andy recalled, usually made the Norman home her headquarters, paying them some small sum for board and lodging whenever she visited them. The old ramshackly house stood far back from the street. Its front fence was broken down, and Andy crossed the lot from the side.
But just then along comes a darky driving an old ramshackly hack, and he see his chance. He rushes out and shouts: "A half a dollar if you git me to the Capitol in half an hour, and a quarter extra if you do it in twenty minutes!" "Done!" says the darky.
"You've been taking this gentleman's umbrella." "Taken a what?" said Helen, opening the door. "Oh, what's that? Do come in! How do you do?" "Helen, you must not be so ramshackly.
