But whatever Lancelot saw, or thought he saw, I cannot say that it brought him any nearer to a solution of the question; and he at last ended by a sulky acquiescence in Sam Weller's memorable dictum: 'Who it is I can't say; but all I can say is that SOMEBODY ought to be wopped for this! But one day, turning over, as hopelessly as he was beginning to turn over everything else, a new work of Mr.

Weller's grasp, and his whole frame quivering with anguish as kick followed kick in rapid succession; it was a still more exciting spectacle to behold Mr. Weller, after a powerful struggle, immersing Mr. Stiggins's head in a horse-trough full of water, and holding it there, until he was half suffocated. 'There! said Mr.

'Not an uncommon thing upon ice, Sir, replied Mr. Weller. 'Hold up, Sir! This last observation of Mr. Weller's bore reference to a demonstration Mr. Winkle made at the instant, of a frantic desire to throw his feet in the air, and dash the back of his head on the ice. 'These these are very awkward skates; ain't they, Sam? inquired Mr. Winkle, staggering.

Weller's time," we are informed, "was quite a model of a roadside public-house of the better class just large enough to be convenient, and small enough to be snug." In the chapter describing how Sam displayed his high sense of duty as a son, by paying a visit to his "mother-in-law," as he called her, and how he discovered Mr.

Would that I had observed the elder Weller's injunction: "Bevare of vidders;" would that I had never seen the Widow Roberts, or rather that she had never seen me.

'I never could a-bear that Job, said Mary. 'No more you never ought to, my dear, replied Mr. Weller. 'Why not? inquired Mary.

"Drinking the waters" sounded fashionable and Queen Anne-fied, and I thought I should like them. But, ugh! after the first three or four mornings! Sam Weller's description of them as "having a taste of warm flat-irons" conveys only a faint idea of their hideous nauseousness.

But she did not feel so sure of it. There was always an undefined terror of discovery when in his presence, and she wished the interview at an end. "I will see Mr.

Weller's, and a stout little body of exactly his build, this young gentleman, standing with his little legs very wide apart, as if the top-boots were familiar to them, actually winked upon the housekeeper with his infant eye, in imitation of his grandfather.
