Kilkelly was an excellent travelling companion, readily pleased, and taking things as they came with easy philosophy. But never more shall we travel together, at home or abroad.

Requiescat in pace, and may God give her eternal rest and forgiveness for all her sins. Poor, beautiful, erring woman!
Asking to be forgiven after slamming a door is like touching off a Rodman gun, and then calling out to the fort in front to 'look out' 'take care! 'do get out of the way. A first class slam is cumulative long after the noise has ceased the nerves go on slamming the valves of the heart flap to and from the tympanum roils a revelrie to all the shattered senses, the offender slammed at, at once subsides from rage to fear; the mental barometer falls and apprehension the requiescat is a don't know what is coming next.
Monsieur, when I recall the past, I behold many instances where I erred and was foolish; but the single bitter reflection I have is, that my own ruin involved the ruin of John Meavy, my partner and good comrade. I remember what he was when I found him, happy, prosperous, large-hearted, in every sense a noble man. I ruined him! Ah, could I but Eh, bien! 't is too late, now; he is dead; requiescat!
If you stay at the Pension Pace and wish to "requiescat in pace," you do as she says to do. I have defied her from the first and now I am rated as an undesirable boarder.

His stick drifted to My Country, 'tis of thee! And may be seen, in connection with many others, on the stage of any New York theatre every night. The Canadians won't have any line pretty soon.
But hardly anything can make one quarrel with such a piece of poetry as that beginning "So rest, for ever rest, O princely pair!" and ending "The rustle of the eternal rain of Love." On the other hand, in Requiescat there is not a false note, unless it be the dubious word "vasty" in the last line; and even that may shelter itself under the royal mantle of Shakespeare.

God help him, over whose dead soul in his living body must be uttered the sad supplication, Requiescat in pace!
It was to be told, and I have told it; but none, not even my mother or Jack, knew how deep a mark it left upon my character, or how profoundly it affected my life. My friend Jack shall say the requiescat of this chapter of my life, which I have so unwillingly recorded. There was one more thing needed to complete its misery.
