I was waiting up-stairs in the slosh, then, and I was right down here by the door, putting some vinegar and cayenne into an empty bottle of tabasco, and I heard all they said. "'It, says Sir Percival, without moving. 'I'm only local colour. Are my hauberk, helmet, and halberd on straight? "'Is there an explanation to this? says she.

"It is already but two years I was there, so a house would have to be young for me not to remember," replied the young man, unconscious of the funny little twist of his English. "I am thinking of a very old house; Slosh er the Castle of Hrvoya. Have you seen it?" "Ah, that old ruin!" exclaimed the artist. "I seen it, yes.

Never could bear the slosh, but Ay'm blest if Ay won't drink it to the dregs to please her." In a very short time Valmai returned, carrying a tray laid out neatly with tea-things for two; and, drawing a little round table towards the bed, placed the tray upon it, while Mrs. Finch brought in some slices of cold ham. "There, you see," said Valmai, "I'm making myself quite at home. I asked Mrs.

'By Jupiter! you haven't won yet. And he pounds the table with his fist and yells to me: 'Waiter, call the manager at once tell him to hurry here as fast as he can. I go after the boss, and old Brockmann hikes up to the slosh on the jump. "'I want this man discharged at once, roars the old guy. 'Look what he's done. Ruined my daughter's dress.

"I'll allow you just five minutes to get out of this room, before I kick you out, and if I kick you out of the room, I'll kick you down the stairs, and if I kick you down the stairs, I shall have got my blood comfortably warmed up and I'll kick you down the street and round the block and down to Hoboken, because you're going to take the steamer there and go back to the place you came from, to the Slosh thing or whatever you call it.

"Love-forty," said Mr. Chase. "Phyllis!" "Yes?" "That was the Tilden Slosh." "I thought it must be," said Phyllis. In the third game I managed to score fifteen. By the merest chance I returned one of his red-hot serves, and probably through surprise he failed to send it back again. In the fourth and fifth games I omitted to score.

They gave him an umbrella and he plunged out into the night, and as they stood watching him for a moment from the door, the old man calling after him cheery good-nights and laughing messages to Harkless, they could hear his feet slosh into the puddles and see him fight with his umbrella when he got out into the road.

Some of 'em would poke him with their fingers to see if he was real or only a kind of a stuffed figure like they burn in elegy.
