"And Ike knows that I would be the last person in the world to slur a gentleman from whom I as well as the others have received so much instruction." Ike was mystified. He looked at the other members of the committee and then into the faces of the group. He couldn't make it out. "If it's all the same, Mr.
It is not that my heart stirs much where my Lord Ostermore is concerned. And yet, for the sake of the name that is mine now, I shall leave England as I came Mr. Justin Caryll, neither more nor less. "In the eyes of the world there is no slur upon my mother's name, because her history her supposed history was unknown. See that none ever falls on it, else shall you find me pitiless indeed.
Nought shall make us rue, If England to herself do rest but true. So says that knave Will Shakespeare. Edward, thou here again? I thought the queen held thee in durance?" "She did, my lord admiral," returned Devereaux. "But think you that I was to be mewed up like a girl when England had need of me? I trow not!" "Spoken like a true Englishman, boy, save the slur upon the girl.
Premising that of the five who assisted in that little joke, all stronger, bigger fellows than myself, four have gone "where they never see the sun," I will copy the statement as it stands today, on paper yellow with age. For I have kept it over forty years. Then they raised a horse laugh and the cost of that hatchet became a standing joke and a slur on my "business ability."
That his relation to the creatures he has made should make any difference to him, carry any consequence, or qualify his being, is repudiated as a pantheistic slur upon his self-sufficingness. I said a moment ago that theism treats us and God as of the same species, but from the orthodox point of view that was a slip of language.
"I have induced Hervey to hold his tongue for a few days until we can look into this matter," he said, rubbing his hands "that is, if you think it wise, all of you. Otherwise, I am quite willing to go myself to-morrow and tell the police." "No," said Archie rapidly, "let us thresh out the matter ourselves. We will save Sir Frank's name from a police court slur at all events."

He was wholly unable to imagine circumstances, present or future, under which any of the instruction and training he was now receiving could be of the slightest possible use or benefit to himself; and when he was informed that such circumstances would frequently arise in his later life, he but felt the slur upon his coming manhood and its power to prevent any such unpleasantness.
Charles devoured the horses' oats and doubled the amount of their provender, reselling at the back door what came in at the carriage gate, while amid the general pillage, the sack of the town after the storm, Zoe, by dint of cleverness, succeeded in saving appearances and covering the thefts of all in order the better to slur over and make good her own.
The unanimous vote of the Italian Senators is sufficient refutation of the Bethmann-Hollweg slur.
