That poor man died last night in the hospital. I mean poor Mr. Warwick. He was recovering, getting strong and well, and he was knocked down at a street-crossing and died last night. It is a warning to us! 'Mr. Redworth happened to hear of it at his Club, near which the accident occurred, and he called at the hospital. Mr.
With habitual courtesy they separate, Sir Donald and Esther riding up the street, and Oswald joining Karl Ludwig at the next street-crossing. Each actor perceived the embarrassment of the situation, and prevented any public display. Sir Donald and Esther have no further interest in Calcutta drives.

Merit stepped off into the mud and went around him, bowing his apologies, which Success had the grace to accept. "I think," says the philosopher divine, "Therefore I am."
For the first time in literature, with sympathetic insight, there was laid bare the misery of childhood among the lowly and unfortunate, and the pathos of unhappy childhood was pictured with all its tragic consequences to society as a whole.
