It's some two moons prior when one of 'em, which we'll call him the 'Astor Injun, takes a heavy fall out of the opp'sition by goin' over to Cherryvale an' buyin' a sooperannuated two-seat Rockaway buggy.
"We shall have ten times more fun at Rockaway; Colonnade Manor was the stupidest place in creation; we were often a whole day without seeing a beau!" At length, Miss Emma having declared herself more than sufficiently rested, she put on the habit; and the chair and horses were brought to the door. Mr.
After I read that article I cut it out, because I knew I was going to tell you about all these things. So here it is now for you to read: FISHERMEN HAVE HARROWING ADVENTURE The fishing schooner Stella B arrived in port to-day with two castaways, who had drifted for three days in an open boat in the stormy waters off Rockaway.
"Set here a minute," said Mr. Geary, and he left Marjorie on a bench, which stood outside, against the building. After a time he returned, with an ancient-looking vehicle, known as a Rockaway, and a patient, long-suffering horse. "Git in back," he said, and Marjorie climbed in, too tired and sad to care much whither she might be taken. They jogged along at a fair pace, but Mr.
He stood aside to let the devotees put Wych Hazel into the little rockaway which was her sole present equipage; but when the last words had been said and the last man stepped back, Rollo stood at the door before Dingee had time to shut it. 'Will you give me a seat as far as Mr. Falkirk's? he said, looking in.
It would be such a help to be mistress of the house! for these last two days she had been nothing but a brown parcel, marked "fragile" "with care." Rollo had driven the rockaway down and was going to drive back. He put Wych Hazel into the carriage, recommending to her to lean back in the corner and go to sleep. Phoebe was given the place beside her; Mr.
Maybe you saw the accounts in the papers of the two fishermen who were picked up after a harrowing experience Mike Corby and Dan McCann. That was us. I left Jakey down at Rockaway to wait for his engine to be fixed and beat it out to Jersey. No house-boat! Was I up in the air? Didn't even dare to go up to the house and ask about it.
So I said banteringly, "I'll wager you my hat that you dare not get out and drive that terrific beast away." "The idea of Emily's being afraid of a cow, after facing Dapple!" cried Reuben. "Well, we'll see," I said. "Stop the rockaway here." "What should I do with your hat, Mr. Morton?" "Wear it, and suffer the penalty," laughed Adah.
Missie Jo, wagon come, maybeso better you stop house-o." Six horses topped the long hill, pulling the huge rockaway stage. They were coming at full speed, and the near wheeler was dripping with blood. A dead man hung over the high dashboard, where his feet had caught when he fell.
The women were pretty enough, and the men were handsome enough; perhaps the average was higher in respect of beauty than the average is anywhere else; I was lately from New England, where the people were distinctly more hard-favored; but among all those thousands at Rockaway I found no striking types.
