Mark pulled again more strongly, and the bell began to chime, irregularly at first with alternations of sonorous and feeble note; at last, however, when the rhythm was established with such command and such insistence that the ringer, looking over his shoulder to the south door, half expected to see a stream of perturbed Christians hurrying to obey its summons.
"Oh, Bijou " she cried, "you excite me with such grave speeches. If it were all these things it would indeed be sacred." "Come, Fifine, you have said you will do my wish; let me place this golden band upon your ringer, and insure you to me for the days to come." What sensational story she had ever read could equal this? Was ever any thing so purely romantic or exalted?
She leaned forward and pointed her ringer, first at Polly, then at Rose. "Our house has a secret closet. Don't you both wish yours had?" "Why, Gwen Harcourt! What could we do with secret closets?" said Rose. "The girl in the story I read was locked into the closet by mistake, and she couldn't get out!" said Gwen, looking quite as excited as if she were telling something pleasant.
The familiarity of this description made Steve sit up a trifle straighter. "Was he a ringer?" "Maybe. I dunno. Pa meets him at the door and asks him in. What d'you think this feller comes back with?"
A variety of belles disturbs concentration, and prevents that earnestness of purpose which is so highly desirable." "I see," rejoined Pansey, laughing. "To revert to the metaphor you used in our conversation some days since, you object to a peal of belles. Your doctrine may be embodied in the formula, I presume, of one belle and one ringer."
"That geek," von Schlichten said, "is too smart for his own good. Some of these days he's going to play both ends against the middle and both ends'll fold in on him and smash him." A suspicion occurred to him. "You sure this is Rakkeed? It would be just like Yoorkerk to try to sell us a ringer." O'Leary shook his head solemnly. "I thought of that, right away.
A big tackle on the larger team made the following remark to a supposed ringer: "'I'll bet you five to one you cannot name the president of your college. The answer came back, 'Well, old boy, perhaps I can't, but perhaps I can show you how to play tackle and that's all I'm here for." The Princeton-Yale game of 1915 was one of the most bitterly contested in the history of football.
He's the only shearer we have, so we tell him he's the ringer of the shed. He works terr'ble hard, does Peter. He's not " and the old woman dropped her voice "he's not all there in the head, is Peter, you know." "And where's Mick?" "Mick, bad scran to him! Down at one of the shows he is, some place. He has too much sense to work, has Mick. Won't you come in and have a cup of tay?"
"Waal, thet was like puttin' a match to powder, and them people was goin' to string the guy up, only the sheriff came along jest then and stopped the proceedin's. So that's when I see this party last." "Yes, but he might not have been a 'ringer'," suggested Bert, who had come up and joined the group while Chip was speaking.
The signature he put on this paper is a dead ringer for the one on the registry blank you gave Dale. "Dale saw Owen sign that. That's why he knew you are not Will Bransford. Understand? Maison will swear you signed the withdrawal slip and got the money. We'll prove that you are not Bransford, and you'll go to the Las Vegas pen for twenty years! Now, let's talk business!" Sanderson turned.
