One Sunday she said to him, "Oh, dear, I do feel so dull. Nobody to go to church with, nor yet to the Zoo." "I'll go with you," said Staines. "You will! To which?" "To both; in for a penny, in for a pound." So to church they went; and Staines, whose motto was "Hoc age," minded his book. Rosa had intervals of attention to the words, but found plenty of time to study the costumes.
It does one good sometimes to help a poor creature in distress. But you had better hustle and change your wet clothes or the ambulance will have to come fer you next." "You're right, I do feel chilly, so good-night." "Good-night," was the reply, "and when ye want any help with that scoundrel, just call upon Cap' Dodges, of the 'Nancy Staines." The rector of St.
"Very well," said Staines. But he felt sure the savage only wanted his meal, and would never part with the diamond, except for the odd money. However, he loaded his left barrel with one of the explosive projectiles Falcon had given him; it was a little fulminating shell with a steel point.
To be sure, folly is generally uttered in a hurry, and she was too deplorably lazy to speak fast on any occasion whatever. One day Mrs. Staines took her up-stairs, and showed her from the back window her husband pacing the yard, waiting for patients. Lady Cicely folded her arms, and contemplated him at first with a sort of zoological curiosity.
On August 11, 1820, Dr Arnold married Mary Penrose, and as he had devoted his teaching energies, which were early developed, not to school or university work, but to the taking of private pupils at Laleham on the Thames, between Staines and Chertsey, their eldest son was born there, on Christmas Eve, 1822.
Staines directed Phoebe Falcon how to treat her husband. No medicine, no stimulants; very wholesome food, in moderation, and the temperature of the body regulated by tepid water. Under these instructions, the injured but still devoted wife was the real healer.
"I put the ky-bosh on HIS little game," he remarks. "I DID that," and one might even call him happy in these phases. And, by-the-bye, the machine, you notice, has been enamel-painted grey and carries a sonorous gong. This figure passes through Basingstoke and Bagshot, Staines, Hampton, and Richmond.
Now, dearest, just come and see the house at Harewood Square, eighty-five pounds and no premium." "Will you oblige me with your address, doctor?" said the agent. "Dr. Staines, Morley's Hotel." And so they left Mayfair. Rosa sighed and said, "Oh, the nice little place; and we have lost it for two hundred pounds." "Two hundred pounds is a great deal for us to throw away."
"Well, come, we'll try and manage it," says he, amused at her enthusiasm. They move away together. There had been no question about it; it had been a walk-over. Even Lord Eshurst and Miss Staines, who are considered quite crack people at tennis in this part of the county, had not had a chance. Tita had been everywhere; she seemed to fly. Every ball caught, and every ball so well planted.
Lady Cicely, with her eyes fixed on Staines, made a motion with her hand that she was attending. "And they won't publish a word he writes." "Poor man!" "Nice for me; is it not?"
