Why, Daniel Burton, I've actually heard her refuse REFUSE to serve you with something to eat that you'd ordered." "Oh, well, well, what if she has?
Hence several towns in this State till lately, were not represented in the General Assembly, and of course not taxed. Barkhempsted, Colebrook, and Winchester, it is believed, were of this description. This State and the other States understood this maxim precisely as now explained, in their opposition to Great-Britain.
But Daniel Burton, with two hands upflung, and a head that ducked as if before an oncoming blow, had rushed from the room. For the second time that day Daniel Burton had fled to the attic. Mrs. Colebrook went home the next day. She wore the air of an injured martyr at breakfast.
