"There are creditors who are pressing us; and now that they have been frightened about Mr. Brown, we shall be sold up." "You mean the advertising people?" "Yes; the stationer and printer, and one or two of the agents. The fact is, that the money, which should have satisfied them, has been frittered away uselessly." "It's gone at any rate," said she.
"Direct your Relations to Alexander Ogstouns, Shop Stationer, at the foot of the Plain-stones, at Edinburgh, on the North-side of the Street." Is this not a pleasing opportunity for Gentlemen, and Others, whose Aunts have beheld wraiths, doubles, and fetches?
Bodery had turned his attention to his letters, of which he was cutting open the envelopes, one by one, with a paper-knife, without, however, removing the contents. He looked up. "To-morrow morning," he said, "you will be able to procure a copy from any stationer for the trifling sum of sixpence." Then the stranger walked slowly past Mr. Morgan out of the room.
When the debates were political, two members with the gift of song fired the blood with their own poems about taxation and the depopulation of the Highlands, and by selling these songs from door to door they made their livelihood. The flying stationer best known to Thrums was Sandersy Riaca, who was stricken from head to foot with the palsy, and could only speak with a quaver in consequence.
Father's house here in the High Street? Printer and stationer? Ah! Old Bill Armstrong. Ayrshire Scotch. Anti-Corn Law. Villiers' Committee. I know him. How do you get on together eh? 'My father, sir?

"Would you have any objection to my taking a copy of these entries?" I asked. "My word, no, lad; not I. Take half a dozen copies, and welcome, if they can be of any use to you or other people. That's not much to ask for." I thanked my simple host, and determined to write to a stationer at Hull for some tracing-paper by the first post next morning.
"As I folded the paper, I looked, half in absence of mind, at the stamp in the corner. It was an old-fashioned sheet of Bath post, stamped with the name of the stationer who had sold it Jakins, Kylmington. Kylmington; yes, I remembered there was a town in Hampshire, a kind of watering-place, I believed, called Kylmington!
He could scarcely fall asleep for eager and leaping thoughts, and as soon as his breakfast was over he went out and bought paper and pens of a certain celestial stationer in Notting Hill. The street was not changed as he passed to and fro on his errand.
Ronald looked at his wife as a dog looks at the maddened sheep that turns on him. "You mean?" repeated the stationer. "Upon my soul what next? You mean? Where is the money to come from? Answer me that." Mrs. Ronald declined to be drawn into a conjugal dispute, in the presence of her daughter. She took Emma's arm, and led her to the door. There she stopped, and spoke.
I thought it my duty to come and tell you at once. What is the foundation?" "I warned you, Lily," said Denzil, good-humouredly. "The fact is, Mrs. Wade, she gave half-a-crown to some old woman in Water Lane this afternoon. It was imprudent, of course. Who told you about it?" "Mr. Rook, the stationer. It was talked of up and down High Street, he assures me.
