But doubtless your honour will consider my risk of loss when we win to Glasgow and ye'll be for setting out forthwith?" "By day-break in the morning," I answered. "That's something o' the suddenest whare am I to find a naig? Stay I ken just the beast that will answer me." "At five in the morning, then, Andrew, you will meet me at the head of the avenue."

She is steered mighty strangely, for she doesn't mind the hand on the wheel, changes about with every puff of wind. We'll hear more of her before this time tomorrow." From a correspondent. Whitby. One of the greatest and suddenest storms on record has just been experienced here, with results both strange and unique.

Lord Hermiston sat in the saddle beholding her. Then he seemed to recover command upon himself. "Well, it's something of the suddenest," said he. "But she was a dwaibly body from the first." And he rode home at a precipitate amble with Kirstie at his horse's heels. Dressed as she was for her last walk, they had laid the dead lady on her bed.

Remember, Phorenice, a week agone, I did not know what love was, and now that I have learned the lesson, somewhat of the suddenest, the language remains still to come to me. My inwards speak; indeed they are full of speech; but I cannot translate into bald cold words what they say."

External nature, and almost nothing else, had free access to her mind: at the suddenest sight or sound, she was alive on the instant. She was a most amusing and sometimes almost bewitching little companion; but the delight in her would be not unfrequently quenched by some altogether unforeseen outbreak of heartless petulance or turbulent rebellion.

But he still held the letter. At last Mr. Henry reached forth his hand, and there was nothing to be done but give it up. Mr. He had surprised me all through by his excellent behaviour; but he was to excel himself now. "Let me give you a hand to your room," said he to his wife. "This has come something of the suddenest; and, at any rate, you will wish to read your letter by yourself."

The intruding "couple" had risen together, turning; and Carlisle saw, with the suddenest and oddest little sinking sensation, that the male half of it, Mattie's astounding capture, was the lame physician from the slums, he whose face and words had become inextricably a part of the most disturbing memories of her life.

She recognized this voice at the first word. And she involuntarily rose in the Cooney parlor, feeling the oddest, suddenest, most unreasoning impulse to go at once into the dining-room, after all, and be with Looloo, and watch them play checkers for a little while.... It was the surprise of it; nothing more. And Carlisle overcame that impulse.

She seemed to be walking in a dream, and hardly noticed Freddy or yet the errand upon which I sent him. It came to me that, as the matter was of the suddenest, Amelia Craven might help us to find a small house of our own where we might set up our household gods that is, when we got any. An unexpected encounter preceded the one expected.
