You might have saved me the trouble, you selfish brute." Burnley submitted at once to the ascendency of Monckton; he hung his head, and muttered, "I am no scholard to write to folk." "You grudged a joey to a bloke to write for you. Now I suppose you expect me to be a good pal to you again, all the same?" "Why not?" said Burnley. "He is poison to you as well as to me.

He was so disgusted at the way Bill Chambers and Henery Walker come up 'ere wasting their 'ard-earned money, that he sent 'im a letter, signed 'A Friend of the Working Man, telling 'im about it and advising 'im what to do." "A friend o' yours?" ses John Biggs, staring at 'im. "What for?" "I don't know," ses Bob; "he's a wunnerful good scholard, and he likes writin' letters.

Let's mak' room for her, hoo'l happen not want it so long; and when hoo's gone we's noan be sorry we took her in; who knows but what we shall be takin' in the Lord Hissel? I'm no scholard, but I've read abaat 'em takin' in angels unawares; and th' Lord said if we took onybody in ut wur aat i' th' cowd, we wur takin' Him in.

"Ah, dear dame," said Paul, "we can't help these rubs and stumbles on our road to preferment!" "Road to the scragging-post!" cried the dame. "I tells you, child, you'll live to be hanged in spite of all my care and 'tention to you, though I hedicated you as a scholard, and always hoped as how you would grow up to be an honour to your " "King and country," interrupted Paul.

Many's the time I've been close enough to fire at the eyeball of a Husshon, an' run the resk o' bein' blown to smithereens! calm and cool I alters was, too! Scarlit fever is an easy death from a warrior's p'int o' view!" "Speakin' of easy death," continued Timothy, "you know I'm a great one for words, bein' something of a scholard in my small way.

Surface, said Tim, had been a great scholard, and used to sit up to all hours reading books that Thomason, the butler, couldn't make head nor tail of; and so with Surface's boy. He was the strange duckling among chickens who, with no guidance, straightway plumed himself for the seas of printed knowledge. Time rolled on.

Tulliver, "what I want is to give Tom a good eddication an eddication as'll be a bread to him. I mean to put him to a downright good school at midsummer. The two years at th' academy 'ud ha' done well enough if I'd meant to make a miller and farmer of him, but I should like Tom to be a bit of a scholard. It 'ud be a help to me wi' these lawsuits, and arbitrations, and things.

A accident is a accident; if you cops it, you cops it, and you must take your chance on the carrier at sea, and the workus at home. Look at them wessels. There's six hundred hands round us, and every man of 'em would pay a penny a week towards a doctor if the governors would do a bit as well. I'm no scholard, but six hundred pennies, and six hundred more to that, might pay a man middlin' fair.

You're young and wants eddicating; well, you wants night eddication as well as day eddication. What do you know about the road to London of a night?" "Nothing at all, Ike?" I said with a sigh. "Scholard as you are too," growled Ike. "Why, my figgering and writing ain't even worth talking about with a pen, though I am good with chalk, but even I know the road to London."

But fust of all 'e asked for a pen and ink, and then he got Smith, the land-lord, being a scholard, to write out a paper for them to sign. Henery Walker was the fust to write 'is name, and then Sam Jones, Peter Gubbins, Ralph Thomson, Jem Hall, and Walter Bell wrote theirs. Bob stopped 'em then, and said six 'ud be enough to go on with; and then 'e paid up the sixpences and wished 'em luck.
