I don't know what I should do if there were not a modus in Tipton." "I want him to have a proper man to look after things I want him to take on Garth again," said Sir James. "He got rid of Garth twelve years ago, and everything has been going wrong since. I think of getting Garth to manage for me he has made such a capital plan for my buildings; and Lovegood is hardly up to the mark.

In fact, a constant glamour of excitement and enjoyment had come into his life. This was the second day after his strange interview with his aunt. It was the last evening performance of the show at Tipton. Andy had been away from the circus for two days.

The instant the youth got out of range of the house, however, a riotous, echoing yell rang from his lips as he turned a mad, capering somersault: "Hurrah!" "All aboard!" Frank fancied that he had never listened to a more cheery command than this given as the Western Express rolled out of the depot at Tipton.

Nor was it uncommon to meet what was called the cream of society at the celebrated rendezvous of Ben Caunt, which was the Coach and Horses, St. Martin's Lane, or at the less pretentious resort of the Tipton Slasher; and what will our modern ladies think of their fair predecessors, who in those days witnessed the drawing of a badger or a dog-fight on a Sunday afternoon?

My modern English pride accompanied me all the way to Tipton; for all along the route there were wonderful evidences of English skill and enterprise; in chimneys high as cathedral spires, vomiting forth smoke, furnaces emitting flame and lava, and in the sound of gigantic hammers, wielded by steam, the Englishman's slave.

Eddie is the proprietor of the well-known group of American hotels justly celebrated for their great height and poisonous cuisine; while Sir Horace Tipton alike as sportsman, globe-trotter, and soap manufacturer, is characteristically British. Of General Sir Francis Payne I need only say that his home services during the war did incalculable harm to our prestige throughout the Empire."

"No need of us waiting," responded Jem. "Here's my half of that card, judge. I suppose you know the arrangement." For reply the judge walked to a safe standing in the corner of the room, opened it, took out a little box and handed it to Jem. Frank felt somehow that this was the diamond bracelet that had been stolen from Samuel Mace back at Tipton.

Tipton was one of the mountain leaders, second in influence only to Sevier, and his bitter personal enemy. At the convention a brand new constitution was submitted by a delegate named Samuel Houston. The adoption of the new constitution was urged by a strong minority. The most influential man of the minority party was Tipton.

Excellence in this pursuit was the growth of all the more masculine virtues. I have the kindliest memories of some of the old heroes. The very first man who helped me on with a pair of boxing-gloves was the mighty 'Slasher' the Tipton Slasher, William Perry, who in the days of my nonage kept the Champion of England public-house in my native parish of West Bromwich, in South Staffordshire.
