But after looking about him for an angry second or two, he flung down the rope of his sled, walked sulkily uphill, and kicked off his snow-shoes at the door of the cabin, all with the air of one who waits, but is not baulked of his purpose. They went in and stripped off their furs. "Now see here: if you've made up your mind to light out, I'm not going to oppose you."
Botolph's Uphill, and there are Uphill Street, and Lowtown Street, and various other streets. I never heard of a mayor of Loring, but, nevertheless, there is no doubt as to its being a town. Nor did it ever return members to Parliament; but there was once, in one of the numerous bills that have been proposed, an idea of grouping it with Cirencester and Lechlade.

Mr Arabin himself was quite clearly an Arabin of Uphill Stanton.
'I will not desert you since you want me. No one shall say of the dean in Delsbo that he refused to accompany any creature who was in trouble. "He let the horse go as he wished and thought only of keeping his seat. It proved to be a hazardous and troublesome journey uphill most of the way.

From several letters and other documents which he exhibited, my father, being convinced that Mr Tidey had given a true account of himself, invited him to Uphill farm.
