But when they see you don't want to patronise, and are content to be as simple man among men, there's nothing they won't do for you or tell you. 'Oh, d n one's fellow-creatures! present company excepted, says Mr. Despard, filling his glass, 'and the man that grew this "tipple."
"Let it be a bumper, whatever tipple you may choose. If our drink is better than it used to be, our cups ought not to be less full and my toast is worthy of all honour.
"There, I've took somethin' for the good of the house, and now, lads, I'll drink to your better health and happiness in my favourite tipple, the wich I heartily recommend to you." Bluenose drained the pot, flung a half-crown on the table, and swaggered out of the house with his hands deep in the pockets of his rough pea-jacket.
Have you had a glass this morning?" The sailor looked puzzled, as if he did not see very clearly what the question had to do with the captain's difficulty. "Well, for the matter o' that, I've had three glasses this mornin'." "Then I suppose you have no objection to try a glass of my favourite tipple, have you?"
As three or four were sitting round the fire chatting over their tipple, and Jorrocks was telling some of his best bouncers, the door opened and a waiter bowed a fresh animal into the cage, who, after eyeing the party, took off his hat and forthwith proceeded to pull off divers neckcloths, cloaks, great-coats, muffitees, until he reduced himself to about half the size he was on entering.
The fact that this young woman had never moistened the selvedge edge of her soul with a less plebeian tipple than champagne, had a marked and subduing effect on Harris. He believed she belonged to the royal family. But I had my doubts.
"They may tell you I'm a traitor," he said. "You must trust me." "We trust you!" exclaimed Mike, with fervour; and the others nodded their agreement. "All right," Hal answered. "You can rest sure of this one thing if I get onto that tipple, you're going to get your weights!" "Hear, hear!" cried "Big Jack," in English fashion. And a murmur ran about the room.
Unlike the Almanach de Gotha, however, the price of each is set down. Unlike the Almanach de Gotha, the names of a few commoners are admitted. Macon was here, and even Blackways' Cyder, the favourite tipple of the old Duke of Taunton. Jones ran his eye over the list without enthusiasm. He had taken a dislike to alcohol even in its mildest guise. "Er what minerals have you got?" asked he.
If we do happen to go to Jones, it 'ud be a thousand pities to take the liquor down with us undecanted." Don't get the idea that we were drunk all through that wild cruise, because we were not. But one thing and another combined to make the excitement so vivid, that with the liquor handy it did not take much inducement to make us tipple pretty heavily.
The Court decision first gives an outline of the case, using for the most part the statements of the counsel for the defendant, Farr; so that for practical purposes the following may be taken as the coal companies' own account of their domain: "Round the shaft of each mine are clustered the tipple, the mine office, the shops, sheds and outbuildings; and huddled close by, within a stone's throw, cottages of the miners built on the land of, and owned by, the mining company.
