She had been there five-and-forty years and Smither three-and-forty! And now they would be going to a tiny house in Tooting, to live on their savings and what Miss Hester had so kindly left them for to take fresh service after the glorious past No! But they would like just to see Mr. Soames again, and Mrs. Dartie, and Miss Francie, and Miss Euphemia.
To what particular deed of violence do you refer?" "The last achievement, which is in every one's mouth, that of assisting Mr. Tooting down-stairs." "I have been defamed," Austen laughed; "he fell down, I believe. But as I have a somewhat evil reputation, and as he came out of my entry, people draw their own conclusions. I can't imagine who told you that story." "Never mind," she answered.
And if you give them a few tons to carry, like as not they'll 'dash' you to a case of 'fizz. And meanwhile the English captain is lying outside the bar tooting his whistle and wanting to know if you think he's going to run his ship aground for a few bags of rotten kernels. And he can't see, and the people at home can't see, why the Germans are crowding us off the Coast."
But worst of all, she took Wesley's faithful saddle-horse "Timothy," and hitched him alongside of a horse of her own to a chaise, with a postboy in a red suit on his back, tooting a horn. Poor Wesley groaned, and inwardly said, "It is a trial sent by God I must bear it all." Finally the woman renounced him and left for Scotland.
"If I had money, I'd know that the best way to use it is for the people, ain't that so?" "In the meantime," Mr. Crewe continued, "you may drop in to-morrow at three." "You'd better make it to-morrow night, hadn't you?" said Mr. Tooting, significantly. "There ain't any back way to this house." "As you choose," said Mr. Crewe.
"As a neighbour, it will give me the greatest pleasure to help you to the extent of my power, but the Northeastern Railroads cannot interfere in legislative or political matters." The effrontery of it was appalling! Where, he demanded of Mr. Tooting, did the common people come in? And this extremely pertinent question Mr. Tooting was unable to answer. But the wheels of justice had begun to turn.
Crimmins spat carefully, as if to stimulate his imagination. "No, no, you don't remember," he mused sadly. "Now you're tooting along with the high rollers. But I ain't kickin'. It's Crimmins' way never to give his hand in the dark, but when he does give it for life, my boy, for life. But I was thinkin' of the wife and kids you left up in Long Island; left to face the music.
The Honourable Timothy Wading had produced a typewritten list containing some eighty towns and wards, each followed by a name and the number of the delegates therefrom and figures. "They'd all be enthusiastic Crewe men if they could be seen by the right party," declared Mr. Tooting. Mr. Crewe ran his eye over the list. "Whom would you suggest to see 'em?" he asked coldly.
The work was progressing finely, without more than the usual amount of slop and misdirected effort, when a violent tooting from the direction of the highway caused me to stop, and Ian dropped the squirter that I had newly filled for his turn, upon the grass border, while he and Richard scurried toward the gateway to see what was the matter, for the sound was like the screech of an automobile horn in distress.
In these days, when false rumours fly apace to the injury of innocent men, it is well to get at the truth, if possible. It is not true that Mr. Paul Pardriff, of the 'Ripton Record, has been to Wedderburn. Mr. Pardriff was getting into a buggy to go somewhere when he chanced to meet the Honourable Brush Bascom, and the buggy was sent back to the livery-stable. Mr. Tooting had been to see Mr.
