The Scotsman was beginning to betray an inclination to bridle under the youngster's attitude, and to show an equally pronounced desire not to appear to. "More so, probably, than anybody else!" "Are you positive both of you you too, Mr. McClean that all that talk about treasure in Howrah City is not mere imagination and legend?" "Absolutely positive!"
From Canker's own admission I learned that he accused Gray of having knowledge of the whereabouts of that packet of letters stolen from General Drayton's tent, and the youngster's reply was furious. Canker had to place him in arrest and prefer charges.
"It is time that we did so," rejoined Mr. Bruteman. "Officers have been sent for these slaves of Mr. Royal, and they are probably now lodged in jail. At our next meeting we will decide upon the time of sale." Young Blumenthal rose and attempted to go out; but a blindness came over him, and he staggered against the wall. "I reckon that youngster's an Abolitionist," muttered Mr. Chandler.
When their first child was born, Eve said, "I have gotten a man from the Lord," poor Adam's share in the youngster's advent being quietly ignored. She christened him Cain, a name which comes from a Hebrew root signifying to acquire. Cain was regarded as an acquisition, and his mother was very proud of him. The time came when she wished he had never been born.

In time there would be a bit of land and a good flock of sheep for the urchin. These adoptions at first aroused in Misia Petrona a little rebellion the only ones of her life; but the centaur soon reduced her to terrified silence.
Lodloe has taken the child away, and there is no knowing which way he has gone." "Oh, the youngster's all right," said Lanigan. "Sit down and rest yourself, and we will walk to the inn." "Not a bit of it!" exclaimed Ida. "You go that way, and I will go this, and if you see him, call out as loud as you can." Very reluctantly Mr. Beam obeyed orders, and hurried in the direction of the highroad.
The old straw-stack wasn't in sight from my post; and I began to think I should have to get another piece of bark, when I heard a youngster's voice squeak out, "Oo, Mam! th' ole straw-stack's a-fier!" Then followed sundry little yelps of surprise from the women; and, after giving them a start of a minute or two, I went loping round the left-hand side of the garden, and into the back yard.
'It was very easy to see, gentlemen, by this youngster's frowning and by the waiting-maid's tossing her head and turning up her nose, and by the young ladies turning their backs and talking together at the other end of the room, that nobody but the old gentleman took very kindly to the noble stranger.
