An old man told me that, in walking by the brook-side footpath from Aldington to Badsey, he once encountered one of these armies; they looked so threatening and were in such numbers, that he had to turn aside to allow them to pass, as they showed no signs of giving way for him.
The Redmains were again at Durnmelling had been for some weeks; and Sepia had taken care that she and Godfrey should meet on the footpath to Testbridge, in the field accessible by the breach in the ha-ha here and there and anywhere suitable for a little detention and talk that should seem accidental, and be out of sight.
"It's partly about Cold Harbor that we came but here they all are, upon my life!" A merry company of travelers rode up the lane, and as they dismounted Edwitha came over the little footpath across the field, with the children clinging to her hands a little embarrassed to find so many folk arriving and she not there.
A letter at the opening of a book may be only a footpath, leading the curious to a favorable point of observation, and then leaving them to wander as they will. Sluggards have been sent to the ant for wisdom; but writers might better be sent to the spider, not because he works all night, and watches all day, but because he works unconsciously.
On looking round he saw a dram shop near at hand; steps led down from the footpath to the basement, and Raskolnikoff saw two drunkards coming out at that moment, leaning heavily on each other and exchanging abusive language. The young man barely paused before he descended the steps. He had never before entered such a place, but he felt dizzy and was also suffering from intense thirst.
The church footpath indeed was public property, and Miss Harden's burdens had cried aloud to any passing male to help her. But why in this neighbourhood at all? why not rather on the other side of the county? He could have scourged himself on the spot for an unpardonable breach of manners and feeling. However, Miss Boyce certainly made no sign.
One cannot suppose however that the object of letting them stand is other than utilitarian; after a long life of service in their original capacity these daylight beacons perform the duty of landmarks for seamen in the Channel. A footpath from Rottingdean just a mile long crosses the Downs to Ovingdean, another lonely hamlet without inn or shop.
"Stow them in my pocket and come along." Out in the street there were unusual signs of bustle. People were hurrying along the footpath. The blare of brass instruments came from the big circus tent, round which was lingering every small boy of Cunjee who could not gain admission. Horses were tied to adjoining fences, considerably disquieted by the brazen strains of the band.
No doubt on the right, somewhere close ahead, was the footpath that led to the edge of the cliff and to the hut. Heedless of any risks, she crept up quite close up to where Chauvelin stood, surrounded by his little troop: he had descended from the cart, and was giving some orders to the men.
"Hadn't we better watch the Baxters?" "I think so. The Peacock will not go far, I'm pretty sure of that." The Baxters now passed along the footpath leading to the cave in which Tom and Sam had been placed. Noiselessly Dick and Peterson followed. As Dick advanced he drew his pistol. Quarter of a mile was covered and they were close to the cave, when Arnold Baxter suddenly halted.
