There must be some reason." "I'm afraid I don't know what you're talking about, Mrs. Folliot," answered Bryce, whose ears had already lengthened. "Has Dr. Ransford been laying flowers on a grave? I didn't know of it. My engagement with Dr. Ransford terminated two days ago so I've seen nothing of him." "My son, Mr. Sackville Bonham," said Mrs.

He was himself one of the few who lost neither courage nor generosity in the rout. Among his fellow packers were his uncle and a young man named Bonham, who was his close and dear friend. The uncle was shot in the wrist, the ball lodging near his shoulder; but he escaped. Bonham, just before the retreat began, was shot through both hips, so that he could not walk.

Bonham called to them a few minutes later that the Mexicans seemed to be meditating some movement on the lower wall around the grand plaza. "Like as not you're right," said Crockett. "It would be the time to try it while our attention was attracted by the big cannonade." Crockett himself was detailed to meet the new movement, and he led fifty sharpshooters.

The altar tomb of Sir Thomas Bonham has his effigy in a pilgrim's robe which is said to commemorate that knight's seven years' sojourn in Palestine. An incredible tradition, current among the country people, says that Lady Bonham gave birth to seven children at one time, and that the sieve, in which they were all brought to the church to be christened, hung in the old nave for many years.

Harry Verner quitted the service, finding that, notwithstanding his connections, his merits were not appreciated, and that he was not likely to obtain his promotion. He soon afterwards broke his neck out hunting.

Her musings were interrupted by the descent of the party upon the picnic tables, and she looked up to see Elise beckoning her to a seat. To her delight it was at the table opposite the one where Lloyd and Phil, Anna Moore and Keith were seated. Malcolm was just across from them, with Miss Bonham on one side and Betty and Lieutenant Stanley on the other.

The Federal Reserves have been observed crossing below MacLean's. A strong column they'll take us in the rear, or they'll fall upon Manassas!" That McDowell would use his numerous reserves was so probable a card that Bonham and Longstreet, started upon the pursuit, were recalled. Ewell and Holmes had just reached the battlefield.

Bonham, the butcher's wife, reported that the Rectory servants said he was come to stay till their master came back. All this and much more Mrs.

I attended him for a broken finger Married and Single cricket match and that's when I struck the nonsense. That's all. But it shows you the sort of stuff I have to deal with, anyhow, eh? Nice to get modern sanitary ideas into a people like this!" "Very," I said in a mildly sympathetic tone, and he went on to tell me about that business of the Bonham drain.
