I remember it very well, and the jolly picnics and excursions that you and my mother and I took together afterward. I hope you have not forgotten me, for I am going to claim the privilege of the conqueror in that old battle and ask a favor of you.
One hundred and thirty were missing, but a considerable number of these afterward rejoined their regiments. In his official letter, Sir Henry Clinton states his dead and missing at 4 officers and 184 privates; his wounded, at 16 officers and 154 privates.
Similarly Hand, meeting Arneel not so long afterward, confided to him that Cowperwood was trying to repudiate a sacred agreement. Arneel was grieved and surprised. It was enough for him to know that Hand had been seriously injured.
But the words were English, though immediately afterward could be heard guttural German voices. "That's funny!" said one of Jimmy's men. "I thought the main fighting was over to our left. Now they tell us to go to our right." "Well, we'll take a chance," said Jimmy. He turned and was about to lead his small command in that direction when they were subjected to a fierce burst of fire.
"I think Eleanor has inherited that at any rate," she added after a pause. They had reached the door of the Marionette Theatre now. Afterward they drank beer at Norman's; and when they broke up, Bertram Chester found himself with three invitations to call. Kate Waddington spent that night with Eleanor Gray in the Tiffany House on Russian Hill.
Chuck had carried water from the stream in his hat to make the fire smoke, and, as they watched the hole, the bees came swarming out at the end of the log behind them, "with spears sharpened and ready for action," as Ham afterward said.

Maskull rushed out first into the world of colours and, all dirty and bleeding from numerous scratches, stood blinking on a hillside, bathed in the brilliant late-afternoon sunshine.
So within five minutes after this invitation was received she was skimming over the road in a high state of glee. Sadie marked that night afterward as the last one in which she rode after those black ponies for many a day.
"Jane, I am the proudest being in the world!" he said, neither knew how long afterward, for neither thought of time. They were sitting on the couch in the corner, their turbulent hearts at rest. "To think, after all, that such a beautiful being as you can be mine forever! It's why, it's inconceivable!" "You were sure of me all the time, Graydon," she remonstrated.
And afterward I came out into the clear bright night, and the air was sweet and cool, and my dog came bounding to meet me. So I carried the milk into the house, and Harriet said in her heartiest tone: "You are late, David. But sit up, I have kept the biscuits warm." And that night my sleep was sound. With the coming of winter I thought the life of a farmer might lose something of its charm.
