Low's counsels must be scattered to the winds. He had thrown the die in consenting to stand for Loughshane, and must stand the hazard of the cast. "Bedad, Phin, my boy, I don't think you're listening to me at all," said Laurence Fitzgibbon. "I'm listening to every word you say," said Phineas. "And if I have to go down to the ould country again this session, you'll go with me?" "If I can I will."
"I was talking, for the moment, as an outsider," replied Phin Drayne, flushing. "Change around then, Mr. Drayne, and consider yourself, like every other student of this school, as an insider wherever the Gridley interests are involved." Drayne moved away, a half-sneer on his face. "I don't like that young man," muttered Mr. Morton confidentially to the young captain of the team.
Coal-stoves should be carefully put up, as cracks in the pipe, especially in sleeping rooms, are dangerous. Professor Phin, of the Manufacturer and Builder, has kindly given us some late information on this important topic, which will be found valuable. In choosing the source of our light, the great points to be considered are, first, the influence on the eyes, and secondly, economy.
"Stop that, Phin!" shouted his father, without letting go of Dick's collar, however. Phin, however, instead of obeying, aimed another blow, and would have landed, had not another figure bounded in and taken the blow, next hurling Phin back against a brick wall. It was Len Spencer, "star" reporter of "The Blade," who had thus interfered.
You too, Phin Striker. I'll call ye when the table's set. Now, you go an' set over there in the corner, away from the window, deary, where the lightnin' can't git at you, an' You'll find a comb on the mantel-piece, Mr. Gwynne, an' Phineas will git you a boot-jack out o' the bedroom if that darkey is too weak to pull your boots off for you.
Phin Drayne didn't relish that very sincere laughter. Though he didn't understand the allusion, he suspected that he was being made the butt of a joke by Dick & Co. "Drive on, George," he requested his friend at the wheel. "One hates to be seen in the company of such fellows." The car's speed was let out several notches, and shot down the road ahead of Dick & Co.'s plain little caravan.
You will be able to undertake both the useful and the ornamental branches of education French, Italian, and Music you thoroughly understand. I feel conscious that you will succeed. Please to remember me to your excellent mother, and with love to Miss Spence and my darling Mary, believe me, my beloved Catherine, your affectionate friend and teacher. Sarah Phin.
"I leave them, sir," shouted Phin, above the tumult of hissing, "for the use of some of your many pauper students." Then he went out, slamming the door after him. He darted down to the basement, then waited before the locker door until one of the monitors came down, unlocked the door, and allowed Phin to get his hat. But the monitor never looked at him, or spoke.
"Yes," he said, "I knew Leander'd come home for Thanksgivin'." "Oh, you did! He came here to this shop to see you, maybe? Humph! I'll bet he did, the poor fool!" Again Jed shifted his position. His hands clasped about his knee and his foot lifted from the floor. "There, there, Phin," he said gently; "after all, he's your only son, you know." "I know it. But he's a fool just the same." "Now, Phin!
Phin, however, was noticed no more on the streets of the little city. Then, in some way, it leaked out that his father had sent him to a military boarding school where the discipline was credited with being very rigid. "I guess papa has found that his little boy was none too much of an angel," laughed Dave Darrin when discussing the news with his chums.
