'Robert and papa were talking of having their horses shod at Stoney Bridge, if Tom Naylor will be so obstinate, only papa does not like to give Tom up if he can help it, because his father was so good, and Tom would not be half so bad if he had not married one of the Gages. 'Here is Cousin Robert coming down the lane, said Ada, who had chosen her cotton, and was gazing from the door.

We were on the march again at five o'clock; and after we had forded Stoney River, we came upon the track of a polar bear. The Indian hunter was very keen in his desire to fall in with it, and I lamented that I had not an opportunity of seeing him engage the ferocious animal, which seemed to have taken a survey of the party, and to have gone into the wood a short distance from us.
This, General Winchester had little difficulty in doing, as he was only opposed by a few militiamen and some Indians, under Major Reynolds. The intelligence of the capture of Frenchtown had, however, no sooner reached Colonel Proctor than he collected his men together and marched with great celerity from Brownston to Stoney Creek.
The establishment of Stoney Creek was comprised within two acres of ground. It consisted of eight or nine houses three of which, however, alone met the eye on approaching by the lake.
"I say, Jacques, is yon a cloud or a wreath of smoke above the trees in the creek?" inquired Harry, pointing with his paddle towards the object referred to. "It's smoke, master; I've see'd it for some time, and mayhap we'll find some Injins there who can give us news of the traders at Stoney Creek." "And, pray, how far do you think we may now be from that place?" inquired Harry.
He tells of the birth of a monstrous child a most loathsome malformation at Middleton Stoney, near Oxford, during his stay in England, and gives many other instances of the disastrous effects of untoward conjunction of the planets upon infants born under the influence of the same.
Yo' ma 'd be skeered to spank you, skeered she 'd injuh yo' mumps. Don't you come any closter to me," he again warned, "you too little to have 'em." "I'll give you five peewees if you'll lemme tech 'em so 's I can get 'em," pleaded the younger boy. Billy hesitated. "You mighty little " he began. "And my stoney," said the other child eagerly.
By June the British had turned on the foe with vigour. On June 6th they rather stumbled into victory at Stoney Creek, capturing two American Generals, Winder and Chandler. On June 7th a British squadron, under Sir James Yeo, appeared off Burlington Heights, bombarded the American camp on the shore at Forty Mile Creek and compelled a retreat towards Fort George.
Now Mr Stoney has pointed out that the numerical results of experiments on gases render it probable that the mean distance of their particles at the ordinary temperature and pressure is a quantity of the same order of magnitude as a millionth of a millimetre, and Sir William Thomson has since shewn, by several independent lines of argument, drawn from phenomena so different in themselves as the electrification of metals by contact, the tension of soap-bubbles, and the friction of air, that in ordinary solids and liquids the average distance between contiguous molecules is less than the hundred-millionth, and greater than the two-thousand-millionth of a centimetre.
