That wass a treatful thing to do, to pe tale-bearers. Tear me; and what iss to pe done now? 'But, Duncan, smuggling is against the law, and it will be their own fault 'Well, but, Mr. Allan, you will pe for punishing folks that iss not deserving to pe punished if you do such a foolish thing ass to pring the police to them, and och! Mr. Allan, Mr. Allan, why can't young folks hev some sense!
The report of this conversion, of which the most was made by ill-natured tale-bearers who met with more encouragement than they deserved, created some consternation in the family circle; while the reading set at Cambridge was duly scandalised at the influence which one, whose classical attainments were rather discursive than exact, had gained over a Craven scholar.
Tales and Tale-bearing, always with the emphatic capitals, run continually in his correspondence. I will give but two instances: Let him attend his duty to the Lighthouse and his family concerns, and give less heed to Tale-bearers."
So goes rumour with the more romantic of the Celtic tale-bearers. It is a huge place huge, ungainly, and uselessly extensive; built at a time when, at any rate in Ireland, men considered neither beauty, aptitude, nor economy. It is three stories high, and stands round a quadrangle, in which there are two entrances opposite to each other.
As for the persons who told you about our plan, words cannot express my contempt for them, and right here I accuse Grace Harlowe and her sorority of getting the information from Mabel Allison yesterday and carrying it to you. They are all tale-bearers and sneaks."
"I'd hate to think that Prescott would really be mean enough for a crib." "Think what you like, then, of course. But a fellow guilty of one meanness might not stop at others." Dodge talked much in this vein. Cadets are not tale-bearers, and so little or none of this talk reached Dick's ears until Furlong came along, one day, in time to hear Dodge holding forth on his favorite subject.
'It was not I who said that, said Sophy, blushing. 'You took part with those who did. And poor Genevieve was a much more defenceless victim than papa or myself. 'I would not do so now. 'It does not take much individual blackness of heart to work up a fine promising slander. A surmise made in jest is repeated in earnest, and all the other tale-bearers think they are telling simple facts.
Under these circumstances, it is not astonishing that, as a rule, he would follow the advice of those chiefs whom he knew to be the greatest worshippers of his master, his most faithful spies and beloved tale-bearers.
Busy-bodies whispered, tale-bearers blew the flames. If the young lady smiled on me at a party where George was present, the good people around us looked at him with satirical meaning. If she smiled on George, their eyes were turned toward me, and they giggled and whispered. "That is all tedious is it not? An old story, which every country neighborhood knows.
A Protestant school might, and Grimstone's did, have tale-bearers; possibly a Catholic school might exist without parental surveillance. That system is called by its foes a "police," by its friends a "paternal" system.
