"Trot, if it must be so," said Clarence, superciliously; "but I am a few paces before you." "So much the better," cried the jovial chief. "Little John's mettle will be the more up: on with you, sir; he who breaks into a canter loses; on!" And Clarence slightly touching his beautiful steed, the race was begun. At first his horse, which was a remarkable stepper, as the modern Messrs.
With Diaz out of the country it's in the hands of the brigands. You'll be murdered ... or worse! Well I know whose head your blood will be on. Not mine, thank Heaven!" There was very little that day, Mildred Lorimer felt, that she could thank Heaven for. It was not using her well. "You know that Stepper will give me letters and telegraph ahead to the train people," said Honor.
A slip of his excellent stepper in one of the half-frozen pits of the highway was the principal cause of his confusion of logic; she was half on her knees. Beyond the market town the roads were so bad that he quitted them, and with the indifference of an engineer, struck a line of his own Southeastward over fields and ditches, favoured by a round horizon moon on his left.
"Well, Top Step," said Stephen one of those evenings, "eleven boys beside the stand-by Jimsy. Fair to middling popularity, I should say!" "Popularity?" She opened her candid eyes wide at him. "Why, Stepper, you know it's not that! They don't come to see me! They don't mind me, of course, but it's the eats, and meeting each other, and mostly Jimsy, I guess!

'Most reemarkable hoss. 'Good stepper, too, said Dean soberly. 'Splendid! said Uncle Eb. 'Can go a mile without ketchin' his breath. 'Thet so? said Dean. 'Good deal like Lucy Purvis, Uncle Eb added. 'She can say the hull mul'plication table an' only breathe once. Ye can learn sumthin' from a hoss like thet. He's good as a deestric' school thet hoss is.
Even a wary old bird like me can make a mistake. Mrs. Vavasour has just warned my wife about her. It's no good arguing, Georgie, my boy. Nowadays you can't draw the line too rigidly. Things permissible in Paris or Nice won't pass muster here. I'm sorry, Georgie. She's a high stepper and devilish taking, I admit.

He was still a rather high, though slow, stepper the latter from fixed preference. He had once stepped fast, as well as with a spirited gait. During his master's indisposition he had stood in his loose box and professed such harmlessness that he had not been annoyed by being taken out for exercise as regularly as he might have been.
I believe there's a chapter in that, for my book, Top Step." "I'm sure there is," said Honor, warmly. They had reached the station now and a red cap came bounding for her bags. "And I won't even try to thank you, Stepper, dear, for all " "Don't be a goose, T. S., look! There are your Mexicans!" Honor followed his eyes. "Aren't they delicious?" They hurried toward them. "The girl's adorable!"
The L. A. rooters conscientiously gave their opponents' yell and received a spatter of applause. The Northerners trotted out on the field and were hospitably cheered. "There, Stepper," said Honor, tensely, "that's Gridley the tallest one, see? Last on the right?" "So, that's the boy with the beamish boot, eh?" "Yes. He mustn't get a chance. He mustn't."
