Why would it not do?
There may even be doubts as to whether the majority of rich invalids would exchange their check-books for the privilege of being husky paupers in spite of the time-honored platitude concerning health. Yet Bruce could not help a certain soreness that all he had fought for so doggedly and so unavailingly came so easily as the result of a rich man's whim.
Now, can I?" She thought a moment. "Wait a bit. Wait a bit." She went out of the room. Amid the din of "There you are, there you are, there you ain't ain't ain't," Sally heard her call: "Perce, what's the name Maggie Merrick calls herself now?" There was a silence.

Her father and friends, guessing her intent, on being hailed by her from the top of this rock, dispatched, as the story goes, their fleetest of foot to her rescue, but unavailingly. No Indian passes by this place of tragedy without uttering mournful wails in memory of their beautiful and loved Weenonah.
Genghis Khan retired to the north with his treasures; but soon again returned, and laid siege to Pekin, the capital of the empire.
