Red-coat of Waterless he made captain of the second band; and he had it in charge to wend eastward along the edge of the Dale, and not to go deep into the wood, but to go as far as he might within the time appointed, toward the Mountains.
Their grit caused the enemy to pale. They are pleased and proud of their sea terms, and would not give them up for anything not even if the soldiers of the King do not fathom their meaning. It is a case of going to the "galley," while the red-coat that was persists in the "kitchen." The first field dressing-station is nothing but "sick bay" to the R.N.D. man.
I knew you would say that, I could have laid a wager you'd ask that question, for it is just that very explanation will show all the native delicacy and feminine propriety of my darling Loo; and first, I must tell you, that old Sir Alfred Jonson, her father, has some confounded prejudice against the army, and never would consent to her marriage with a red-coat so that, his consent being out of the question, our only resource is an elopement.
"I desire to be carried before some civil magistrate," said the Bailie "the sherra or the judge of the bounds; I am not obliged to answer every red-coat that speers questions at me." "Francis Osbaldistone, sir." "What, a son of Sir Hildebrand Osbaldistone of Northumberland?"
Never look sae glum, Davie, or I'll be thinking it is my siller and no mysel' you were caring for the night when ye thought o' my cloak and umbrella." The young man rose in a perfect blaze of passion. "Sit down, sit down," said his uncle.

There is also Farmer Peastraw, and faces that a patient inspection enables us to appropriate to Dribble, and Hook, and Capon, and Calcot, and Lumpleg, and Crane of Crane Hall, and Charley Slapp of red-coat times people look so different in plain clothes to what they do in hunting ones. Here, too, is George Cheek, running down with perspiration, having run over from Dr.
"What! and would this be your answer to the first red-coat who asked the question?" said Everard. "Methinks you would find a speedy passport to the next corps de garde." "Nay, nay," answered Wildrake, "I thought you asked me in your own person.
"Why, know you not that I can look upon a viper, or a toad, or a bunch of engendering adders, without any worse feeling than a little disgust? and though a roundhead, and especially a red-coat, are in my opinion more poisonous than vipers, more loathsome than toads, more hateful than knotted adders, yet can I overcome my nature so far, that should one of them appear at this moment, thyself should see how civilly I would entreat him."
Men passed on rough short ponies; once a chariot with a great caleche roof swung on the rutless road, once a company of red-coat soldiery shot like a gleam of glory across the afternoon, moving to the melody of a fife and drum. For the latter Mungo had a sour explanation. They were come, it seemed, to attend a trial for murder. "But, mon Dieu! he is yet to try, is he not?" cried Count Victor.
He was troubled when he came back; for the dogs had barked and the folk run out from their houses; and he thought he had heard a clatter of arms and seen a red-coat come to one of the doors.
