We found inscriptions in English very rudely lettered on many of the lodges and totem poles: "In memory of" some one or another chief or notable red-man. Over one door was this inscription: "In memory of , who died by his own hand."
Rather sad-looking, but just lovely." Mamie sniffed. "Glad you admire her," she said. The governess was expected to appear at luncheon, but dinner was served to her in her own room, where she must sit in solitary state, dressed in her best and waiting for a summons, until eleven o'clock, when she might assume that she would not be wanted and go to bed.
Her arms make a gesture, a weak little gesture as if she were embracing one of the errand boys in a vestibule, saying good-night. A vague radiance comes over Bertha's face. Bravo twenty-nine times. The grand prize of fifty bones is hers. Wait and see if it ain't. More lions and more Christians. Bring 'em out. The sad-looking boy with the harmonica.

She followed the man a long way; and, when she turned to go back, she took the wrong street, and found herself by the park.
Then Miss Montgomery took them through South Park, the oval enclosure, surrounded by high brown sad-looking houses looking down upon a bit of dusty green, and pointed out the long-deserted mansions of the Randolphs, the Hathaways, the Hunt McLanes, and of others who had dispensed the simple lavish hospitality of the Fifties and Sixties.
"There was some mistake about what he gave the horse wood alcohol or something I forget what it was. Anyhow, I think they're all a dangerous lot. They all ought to be locked up. I move to convict!" "But neither of these fellers is a veterinary!" retorted a sad-looking gentleman in black. "The charge is that one of 'em pretended to be but wasn't.
A tall, delicate, sad-looking man, the defeated candidate for , was returning to Ontario, where he was soon after elected for another constituency.
