"I think, indeed, they would rather sarve me than otherwise," replied Owen; "an', in the name o' God, we'll see what can be done. Misther Rogerson, himself, 'ud spake to his son for me; so that I'll be sure of his intherest. Arrah, Frank, how is an ould friend o' mine, that I have a great regard for poor Widow Murray?" "Widow Murray. Poor woman, she's happy." "You don't mane she's dead?"
My father, James Paton, was a stocking manufacturer in a small way; and he and his young wife, Janet Jardine Rogerson, lived on terms of warm personal friendship with the "gentleman farmer," so they gave me his son's name, John Gibson; and the curly-haired child of the cottage was soon able to toddle across to the mansion, and became a great pet of the lady there.
"Wouldn't it be fun to see Peter's face when he comes in, though? Ha-hum! I've enjoyed doing this but why? Nancy Rogerson, don't be asking yourself conundrums. Put on your hat and proceed homeward, constructing on your way some reliable fib to account to Louisa for the absence of your strawberries." Nancy paused a moment and looked around wistfully.
Then she summoned to her presence the court physician Rogerson, who happened to be in waiting at the court, and said to him: 'I am, I know, censured for certain actions; but do you see this electricity?
"I don't know what 'squadrons' means nor 'Midian, either, but it sounds SO tragical. I can hardly wait until next Sunday to recite it. I'll practice it all the week. After Sunday school I asked Miss Rogerson because Mrs. Lynde was too far away to show me your pew. I sat just as still as I could and the text was Revelations, third chapter, second and third verses. It was a very long text.
He could on occasion behave handsomely; but I can't learn that blustering, hilarious Doctor Rogerson ever refused his. And the doctor descended, not hastily, but very swiftly, and was in the drawing-room, and the door shut.
Miss Rogerson said heaven was where God was and I wasn't to ask questions like that. Milty nudged me and said in a whisper, 'Heaven's in Uncle Simon's garret and I'll esplain about it on the road home. So when we was coming home he esplained. Milty's a great hand at esplaining things.
I heard Wiston, the coal-maister, had gien him five hunner pounds on the quiet." "I heard that too," replied Matthew, "but, like you, I'm loth to think it o' Smillie. I'd believe it quicker aboot yon ither chiel, Charlie Rogerson. He comes oot to speak to us ay dressed in a black dress-suit, wi' white cuffs doon to his finger nebs, his gold ring, his lum hat, an' a' his fal-de-lals."
Kavanagh, of Borris House, and his brother; the son of the Lord Mayor-Elect; two judges, namely, Baron Wainright and the Right Hon. John Rogerson, Chief Justice of the King's Bench. The prisoners died in thousands in the jails, especially poor debtors, who had been long incarcerated.
As you go down to school this afternoon you had better tell Rogerson the tailor to come up this evening to measure you for a suit of clothes. You must look decent when you go down; and you know except your Sunday suit, you have got nothing fit to wear in such a house as that." "I am afraid it's going to be a horrible nuisance altogether," Ralph said ruefully.
