Some day he'll raise a nigger that'll be makin' politikle speeches, an' then I don't want to live no more." "Chito! Since the Delaware lawyer sent you to the post, son-in-law, you're morose.
The girl at this laughed again, but nevertheless dropped herself down into the further field; then, leaning her arms upon the cross-bar, she informed the young man: 'No, I don't wanter spoil your walk. You were goin' p'raps ter Beacon Point? It's very pretty that wye. 'I was going nowhere in particular, he replied; 'just exploring, so to speak. I'm a stranger in these parts. 'How funny!
Such a wealth of medievalism makes my head reel.... I was in there for matins," and she nodded to the grave old pile rearing its massive Gothic within a few paces of the hotel. "At high noon we shall visit Gloucester, and to-night we shall see Hereford. All that within a short hundred miles, to say nothing of Chepstow, Monmouth, the Wye Valley! Ah, me!
Every man has, or ought to have, something of Jupiter, a good deal of the boy, in his make-up." He turned and looked at the Wye and its tree-shaded banks.

A hard, worldly, tenacious, calculating race they were; and they turned their faces resolutely towards Wales. From England, Wales can be entered and attacked along three valleys along the Dee, the Severn, and the Wye. At Chester, Hugh of Avranches, called "The Wolf," placed himself.
Some of you were with me last December as we watched the Palestinian National Council completely renounce its call for the destruction of Israel. Now, I ask Congress to provide resources so that all parties can implement the Wye Agreement, to protect Israel's security, to stimulate the Palestinian economy, to support our friends in Jordan. We must not, we dare not, let them down.

"And the answer is?" "That we could run into Hereford before breakfast, leaving you plenty of time to attend the morning service at the cathedral."
he hummed, swinging his legs vigorously. "Ladies and gentlemen, it's all over but the shooting. Arthur, I saw your battery horses; they belong in a glue factory. How arc you going to save your guns when the rebs come after you?" "God knows, especially if the Zouaves support us," replied Wye, yawning again. Then, rising: "I've got to get back to that cursed fort. I'll escort anybody who'll let me."
The remains of the Black Friars' monastery are in the Widemarsh suburb. They consist chiefly of an interesting relic of that religious order, an hexagonal preaching-cross standing on a flight of steps and open on each side. Hereford Castle has disappeared, but its site is an attractive public walk overlooking the Wye, called the Castle Green.
