"I heard General Meade dictating his order, through the window of his head-quarters, and can repeat it verbatim, if you desire." "By all means, Nighthawk, it will reveal his programme. But is it possible that you can do so?" "I can, general; I engraved every word on my memory." And, fixing his eyes intently upon vacancy, Nighthawk commenced in a low, monotonous voice:
She endured very well what she took to be the vacancy of confusion in a shy recluse. "Well, Messer Cino, what will you do?" said she, bubbling with mischief. "Oh, Madonna, can you ask?" he replied, and clasped his hands. "But you see that I do ask." "I would stop here all the day if I might," said Messer Cino, with a look by no means vacant.
The emperor was satisfied that the peace of Egypt would be secured by the absence of a popular leader; but he refused to fill the vacancy of the archiepiscopal throne; and the sentence, which, after long hesitation, he pronounced, was that of a jealous ostracism, rather than of an ignominious exile.
Sir Henry Elmore was still on board as second lieutenant, and appeared very glad to see him. Captain Brine called him aft, and spoke very kindly to him. Moreover, he told him that he had given him the rating of captain of the foretop, which was a great honour for so young a seaman, and that when another vacancy occurred, he should have the highest which his age would allow.
The Bishop of Marseilles represented the great chamberlain, who holds the supreme authority during the vacancy of the popedom. The chamberlain, the Archbishop of Arles, brother of the Cardinal of Limoges, had withdrawn into the castle of St. Angelo, to secure his own person and to occupy that important fortress.
The following letter to Mr. Wade has no date. "Tuesday night, i. e. Wednesday morning. My best and dearest friend, I have barely time to scribble a few lines, so as not to miss the post, for here as every where, there are charitable people, who, taking for granted that you have no business of your own, would save from the pain of vacancy, by employing you in theirs.
So they've got together a Conservative Committee, and are going to run a good strong man for a vacancy. I've given them to understand that I'll be a candidate if they'll have me. I'd like to be one. It's a rubbishy thing, dear, but somehow it would give me a little interest in life." "I don't think it a rubbishy thing at all," said Viviette.
As it happens I have another unexpected vacancy here due to the failure of a new girl to pass her entrance examinations. Miss Noble will no doubt be quite willing to take the other room. At all events, you shall have your own again." "I can't begin to tell you how much I thank you, Mrs. Weatherbee." Jane's somber face had lightened into radiant gratitude.
Mine was that gallery of good old family portraits, which as I have gone over, giving them in fancy my own family name, one and then another would seem to smile, reaching forward from the canvas, to recognise the new relationship; while the rest looked grave, as it seemed, at the vacancy in their dwelling, and thoughts of fled posterity.
You shall learn all, and judge accordingly. But to your ear the tale can scarce be told: the son cannot hear in silence that which, unless I too unjustly, too wholly condemn myself, I must say of the dead! But Time," continued Aram, mutteringly, and with his eyes on vacancy, "Time does not press too fast.
