And what a dinner it was! Each new course in turn amazed Thaddeus far more than the course that had preceded it; and now, when the butler, whom Thaddeus had got more or less used to, came in bearing a bottle of wine, followed by another stolid, well- dressed person, who might have been his twin-brother and who was in reality no more than assistant to the other, Thaddeus began to fear that the wine he had partaken of had brought about that duplication of sight which is said to be one of the symptoms of over-indulgence.
His features, therefore, might during half a century have brought about his recognition from one end of France to the other; consequently, during the same space of time there existed in France a face resembling the prisoner's known through all her provinces, even to her most secluded isle. Whose face could this be, if not that of Louis XVI, twin-brother of the Man in the Iron Mask?
"Dew you remember what I said to ye once," said he, "on the subject o' kile?" "Ahem! female affection?" I inquired gently. "Yes." "Some calls it that," said my twin-brother, beaming on me, "and some calls it kile. Wal, neow, ef a sartin person shows a dispersition to kile, let 'em!

He was a merchant who traded with my country and knew the language, but who had never been there since he was a boy as I judge, some sixty years before.

They were in business together, at Goodman's Fields, but they did not live together. Mr.
"It wasn't a fortune" Betty's quiet voice broke in very decidedly "and most of it was lost by a friend of his, not by Godfrey himself at all. He was too proud to say anything about it to father, but he wrote and told George." A curious stillness fell over the company of young people. They were all in their different ways very much surprised, for Betty never mentioned her twin-brother.
"Ruth," he said, "is short for Rutherford, my brother." His laugh, however, was echoed only by Euphemia. "Then you have a brother?" said Mrs. Sol benignly. "Yes," said Rand: "he will be here soon." A sudden thought dropped the color from his cheek. "Look here," he said, turning impulsively upon Sol. "I have a brother, a twin-brother. It couldn't be HIM "
Her monotonous flax-spinning filled up the quiet, uneventful days, and, untroubled by out-door anxieties, she was content. But, in looking back over this happy time, it was to Hamish that Shenac's thoughts most naturally turned, for it was the happiness of her twin-brother, more than all the rest put together, that made the happiness of Shenac.
Thus it came to pass that a fleet of transports carrying over twenty-five hundred colonists, counting women and children, escorted by a sloop-of-war, cast anchor in Chebucto Bay in July 1749.
