"There'll be no row, Bob," he said, quietly. "I'll go with you." The Carson City lock-up was an improvised affair, although a decidedly popular resort. It was originally a two-room cabin with gable to the street, the front apartment at one time a low groggery, the keeper sleeping in the rear room.
"For a good many years," says Mack, "I've thought that if I ever had extravagant money I'd rent a two-room cabin somewhere, hire a Chinaman to cook, and sit in my stocking feet and read Buckle's History of Civilisation." "That sounds self-indulgent and gratifying without vulgar ostentation," says I; "and I don't see how money could be better invested.
He strode out to Buster and galloped home. It was extremely difficult to find a moment alone with Judith in the two-room cabin; but the chores were late that night and Judith, instead of helping her mother with the supper preparations, went out to milk, and so Doug's second interview that evening was in the cow shed, for when he reached the home corral, Judith had not finished her task.
You've improved a lot, so the Demon says, and he'll be captain. Then there are the sports. If only Dirty Dick could be knocked on the head, the Manor might jump to the front again." "It will," said John. When the School reassembled after Christmas, Desmond entered the Manor, and found himself with Scaife in a two-room. A civil note from the man of millions had arranged this.
To John was given a two-room, also, with the Duffer as stable companion. Fluff remained in No. 15. The Duffer had got his remove from the Top Shell into John's form. Scaife and Desmond were elevated into the Upper Remove. It followed, therefore, that Scaife and Desmond prepared work in their own room, the Caterpillar joining the Duffer and John.
Come, let's tackle the salmon." The winter term came to an end, and the School broke up. Upon the evening of the last Sunday, Warde said a few words to John. "I propose to make some changes in the house," he said abruptly. "Would you like to share No. 7 with Desmond?" No. 7 was the jolliest two-room at the Manor. It overlooked the gardens, and was larger than some three-rooms.
The homes of the people consisted chiefly of one-room and two-room log cabins. There was not a single glass window to be found. I remember that shortly after the founding of the school a Negro built a house and fitted it up with glass windows and people would go ten miles to see it. The economic condition of the people was deplorable. They all carried heavy mortgages from year to year.
"That may be all right," said Harding dubiously; "but we're going to concentrate on business right now. I have a wife, and I don't forget it. Marianna that's Mrs. Harding is living in a two-room tenement, making her own dresses and cooking on a gasoline stove, so's to give me my chance for finding the gum.
Lived in a two-room cabin it was little more with his wife and his five children; lived meanly and pitiably, grovelling in the soil for daily bread, sweating life out of the earth life and no more. A thin man, racking thin; a forward-thrusting neck and a bony face and a sad and drooping moustache about his mouth. His eyes were meek and weary.
Against one side of the quarry a little two-room cottage was built, and just outside the door an old woman was engaged in washing. I walked up to her, and entered into conversation about the church and burial-ground. She was ready enough to talk, and almost the first words she said informed me that her husband filled the two offices of clerk and sexton. I said a few words next in praise of Mrs.
