"But they're quite happy?" "Too happy, sir." "Lord!" cried Oliver, "what a lot of stuffy owls you are! What do you want me to do? What would you like me to do, Doggie? It's your house." "I don't know," said Doggie. "I've had nothing to do with such people. Perhaps you might go and speak to him." "No, I won't do that. I tell you what, Peddle," said Oliver brightly.
So Bill proceeded to peddle out his news, a bit at a time. "John Big Moose's goin' t' New York," was the first thing Bill said. "Hooray!" Whitey cried. "That's a fine way t' take th' news that you're goin' t' lose your dear teacher," Bill said reproachfully. "Oh, of course I'm sorry that John is going away, but just think, there'll be no more lessons," Whitey answered.
She did not even hear his answer, but she said, when he had done speaking, that even in case of an unfavorable report there were, of course, other publishers. But he answered that the judgment of such a house as the Conants would suffice for him. Somehow he could not peddle his story about New York. If the Conants would not take his work, nobody would.
"Of course, it does," retorted Fred, drawing himself up stiffly. "Still, you know as well as anyone does, Badger, that I'm not stuck up just on account of family or position. I'm ready to give the friend's hand to any of the right sort of fellows. But what is that little mucker, Prescott? His parents peddle books and newspapers."
"I shall be there about eleven." The ambassador bowed himself out. And so Miss Isabel Thorne came to Washington! Just as it is one man's business to manufacture watches, and another man's business to peddle shoe-strings, so it was Mr. Campbell's business to know things.
Twice they stopped, however, on the coast of Tunis, to take up more Zouaves and mules; from afar he had perceived the white cities amid sands and arid hills. He had even come down from his top to look at the dark-brown men draped in their white robes who came off in small boats to peddle fruit; his mates told him that these were Bedouins.
"Who's to find out, sir?" "There's Mr. Oliver he's a Major." "Lord, Mr. Marmaduke, I don't think he'd mind. Miss Peggy gave me my orders, sir, and I think you can leave things to her." "All right, Peddle," he laughed. "If it's Miss Peggy's decree, I'll change. I've got all I want." "Are you sure you can manage, sir?"
They did not live in stately abbeys, nor ride on mules with gilded bridles, nor entertain people of rank and fashion, nor hunt heretics with fire and sword, nor dictate to princes in affairs of state, nor fill the world with spies, nor extort from wives the secrets of their husbands, nor peddle indulgences for sin, nor undermine morality by a specious casuistry, nor incite to massacres, insurrections, and wars.
"If there was any way to move Hulls and Maizie out, I would deal with 'em before they dismounted." Davy waved his hand in the direction of the horsemen that had stopped at the farther corral to inspect the weaned calves. "Hulls en Maizie woulda been out long ago if they'd quit snoopin' around and let Hulls peddle a few cows to git money to travel on.
"And so, with prosperous success, and much gain to himself and the aforesaid adventurers, he came home, and arrived in the month of September, 1563." Next year with 170 men in four ships Hawkins again captured as many Sierra Leone natives as he could carry, and proceeded to peddle them in the Spanish islands.
