The child was not yet sixteen, a fair little thing with soft ashen hair and honest gray eyes, the pink upon her cheek like that of a New England girl. At first this marriage which had been so unkindly conducted by Sammy, used by him apparently as a weapon of affront seemed to bring with it only good, only happiness.
"A lingering death," he murmured, as he felt the spray cut round his head; but he struggled resolutely to keep his face front the set of the sea, and the buoy supported him bravely. His thoughts ran on things past; he had spoken unkindly of Sally, behind her back; he had been tipsy Ah! how often! Then he thought, "Shall I pray and repent?"
He proved a bluff fellow with a bloat yet not unkindly humour, and despite his calling seemed to have something that was human in him. He passed many a joke on that pitiful journey in an attempt to break our despondency, urging us not to be downcast, and reminding us that the last gentleman he had taken from Pall Mall was in over a thousand pounds, and that our amount was a bagatelle.
Tom Jerrold, who now appeared on the poop, and whom I had fought shy of before, thinking he had behaved very unkindly to me in the morning, was one of the first to spring into the mizzen-shrouds and climb up the ratlines on the order being given to furl the sail, getting out on the manrope and to the weather earing at the end of the yard before either of the three hands who also went up.
Mercy has never ceased talking about you." "The lame girl, sir?" cried Ruth, in wonder. "Why, she spoke awfully unkindly to me, and I thought her mother only thought I would feel bad and wanted to smooth it over, when she asked me to come again." "No," said the doctor, seriously, shaking his head. "Nobody knows Mercy like her mother. That's not to be expected.
This, however, I have. I get it at about forty cents a flask, and take it as required. I find that in riding a horse up the long street of a country town, it is not well to proceed at a trot. It excites unkindly comment. It is better to let the horse walk the whole distance.
First, I must be kissed by his bread and butter mouth; and then he made me suffer a kind of martyrdom in fear of my elegant lever. A watch is not the thing for a child to play with, and I am astonished at Little for suffering his young one to annoy a visitor in that way." "Blame them as much as you please, but don't feel unkindly towards the child," said Manly. "He knows no better.
He was not unkindly rough: he seemed wholly indifferent; probably he was so. For the ruling vice of the man was in his egotism.
Simeon Roxby had a keen, not unkindly face, and he had that look of extreme intelligence which is entirely distinct from intellectuality, and which one sometimes sees in a minor degree in a very clever dog or a fine horse. One might rely on him to understand instinctively everything one might say to him, even in its subtler aesthetic values, although he had consciously learned little.
We ain't got no dog except the happy family one in here as we've had for years, and that's a white one, as you can see for yourself." "Was yours white?" said the officer to Dick. "No, sir, black and tan. A boy told me he saw that girl pick him up and run off." "Best go and find the boy," said the policeman not unkindly, "then we'll see."
