But at a Strathspey or the Reel o' Tulloch he was almost equal to Neil Gow himself so admirable were his tune and time. In a lonesome land, where amusements are few and the nights long, the power to "fuddle" counts for much. Besides being MacSweenie's interpreter, Donald was also his storekeeper. "Give them both a quid, Tonal', to begin with," said MacSweenie.
Tulloch pays a beautiful tribute to the character of Erskine, whom he knew. Quiet, brooding, introspective, he read his Bible and his own soul, and with singular purity of intuition generalised from his own experience. Therewith is described, however, both the power and the limitation of his work.
That Coleridge was a power, we have testimony from men differing among themselves so widely as do Hare, Sterling, Newman and John Stuart Mill. He was a master of style. He had insight and breadth. Tulloch says of the Aids, that it is a book which none but a thinker upon divine things will ever like. Not all even of these have liked it. Inexcusably fragmentary it sometimes seems.
Miss Tulloch clung to the connection as her only chance of relief from the boarding-house routine she detested, and was always abjectly ready to do as she was told. She saw nothing she was not meant to see, and she could be shaken off at a moment's notice.
Be very careful, all of you." Mason approached cautiously, to get a nearer view; and then exclaimed: "Why, sir, it is an eel!" There was a moment's silence, and then a perfect yell of laughter from the boys. For a moment the usher was dumbfounded, then he rallied. "You will all go to your beds, at once," he said. "I shall report the matter to Mr. Tulloch, in the morning."
It was well worth it, if it had only been to see that sneak Purfleet's face, when the admiral told the story. I was watching him, when Tulloch came in; and saw how delighted he was, at the tale he was going to tell; and how satisfied he was that he should get no end of credit, for sitting three hours in his dressing gown, in order to catch us when we came in.
Lessons were then continued, as usual, until eight o'clock, when the boys went in to breakfast. After that was over, they went into the playground, until nine; and the four culprits gave the rest a full account of the events of the night. "I don't mind the thrashing," Bob said, "although Tulloch did lay it on hot.
This is the case at Igloolik, which means the place of igloos, and also near Tulloch Point, on King William Land, where the ruins of these underground houses were quite numerous. They had been built a great many years ago by the Ookjooliks, when they occupied the land before the Netchillik invasion.
"Naebody wad e'er suspect thee o' a helping or mercifu' deed, Tulloch. Indeed na!" "Tak care, dame; thou art admitting it wad be a mercifu' deed. I heard Peter Fae say that John Sabay stabbed him, an' Ragon Torr and Hacon Flett saw John, as I understan' the matter." "Mother," said John, "do thou talk to nane but God. Thou wilt hae to lead the prayer theesel' to-night; dinna forget me.
The young gentleman did so, but he did not use his stick, as he had done when Fanny was dragging him. They easily crossed the stream, and Fanny was surprised to find how soon they reached the top of the hill near Glen Tulloch. "Now, young lady, you can easily take the carriage home, so I will wish you good-bye," said the old man; "I hope you will come soon again it does my heart good to see you."
