I was even thinking of scrawling a letter to my uncle to make inquiry on this point, but shame restrained me, and I likewise reflected that it would be impossible for him to give my mind entire satisfaction; it is true he could tell who sent him the hawks, but how was he to know how the hawks came into the possession of those who sent them to him, and by what right they possessed them or the parents of the hawks?
They were two leaves torn out of a pocket-book, and they were written upon in pencil, and in a handwriting that was quite strange to Mr. Audley a cramped, stiff, and yet scrawling hand, such as some plowman might have written. "I don't know this writing," Robert said, as he eagerly unfolded the first of the two papers. "What has this to do with my friend? Why do you show me these?"
These few words, in Nella's large scrawling hand, filled one side of the paper. At the bottom was a P.T.O. He turned over, and read the sentence, underlined, 'P.S. Keep an eye on Rocco. 'I wonder what the little creature is up to? he murmured, as he tore the letter into small fragments, and threw them into the waste-paper basket.
I saw Eagle hastily scrawling his appeal for a written order to fire the guns. I saw Major Vandyke wearing this coat, read the message, crumple up the paper, and then then the vision faded. But the question rang in my ears: what would he be likely to do with the paper? What should I have done had I been a man in his place?
History has not detailed what was the subject which occupied his attention on this occasion, but he was working away with all the ardor which his enthusiastic genius inspired, when unfortunately the Prior, issuing with his train from the choir, caught the hapless painter in the very act of scrawling on those sacred walls which required all the influence of the greatest masters to get leave to ornament.
What was in the letter we could never discover, but I could see as he held it that it was short and written in a scrawling hand. He had suffered for years from an enlarged spleen, but he now became rapidly worse, and towards the end of April we were informed that he was beyond all hope, and that he wished to make a last communication to us.
Furness's argument, I forgot the book wasn't mine and began scrawling controversial notes in it with my very thick and blotty fountain pen. "Give me back my book! Give me my book!" screamed the little girl. "How dare you write in my book!" She began to cry with rage. Her mother tried to hush her up: "Don't, darling. Be quiet! It's Miss Ellen Terry." "I don't care! She's spoilt my nice book!"
With a smile of great sweetness she would say, "I will have Sam come in and help us out"; and the colored coachman would get down from his box, and by scrawling his signature on the proxy of the aristocratic lady he would give it the legal value it lacked.
An officer of the trust company will notify you of its receipt immediately, which will close the entire transaction as far as I am concerned." Kennedy could not wait. He had already seized his own telephone and was calling a number. "They have it," he announced a moment later, scrawling the information on the transmitter of the telautograph. A moment it was still, then it wrote again.
"This is me!" was written across the most agile of the number, while a scrawling line across the top ran, "Happy New Year! Returning on Tuesday. Hope to see you soon." Tuesday was the day on which school re-opened; but Janet's holiday was year long, not a short four weeks. Cecil moaned loudly, but Claire was tired of aimless days, and welcomed the return to work.
