Then at nine o'clock the servants came, some on foot and some on dog-carts, and presently there was a bundling of tiny figures in rugs and wraps, and Wenna stood at the door to kiss each of them and say good-bye. It was half-past nine when that performance was over. "Now, my dear Miss Wenna," said the old clergyman, "you must be quite tired out with your labors.

Aside from rude hands bundling her about, no insult was offered Rosemary; and though Floyd was not treated so gently he was not actually mistreated.

I ought to be bundling you both off to jail; I don't want to do that, you see, and I deserve some sort of " "Enough," Maillot cut in.

He met Tom's advance with a frown. "Well?" he asked coldly. For answer Tom placed a little package of copy before him. "What's this?" he demanded.
Meek almost to automatism, a machine which never varied from one year's end to another, faithful as the proverbial dog, she noiselessly slipped through her unceasing round of duties for twenty-three years then catastrophe. "That fool hired man has hoodwinked Mary." No wedding gift, no note of well-wishing, but a rabid bundling out of her effects.
"This is a pleasure I scarcely anticipated." Agatha sat down in the chair that he drew out for her near the stove. He noticed that she glanced at the papers on the table, and he laughed.
