"I'll try with all my might," he said huskily, and in his heart the simple promise was a vow. He watched her as she ran up the steps and disappeared inside the wide doors of the office building resenting again the thought that she had "hours" that she had to work for pay. If all went well if there were no accidents or miscalculations he should be able to see her again by certainly by October.
You prohibit "talking shop," by which you sometimes mean subjects which are interesting to all intelligent people, and yet you talk gossiping "shop" about the mere accidents of school life. But, unless you interweave thoughtful interests and sensible topics of conversation with your friendship, it cannot last.
Are there accidents floating about among the paths marked out on the chart of life by the Deity, which jostle his creatures from the destiny intended for them?
The greatest number of seamen, at almost all times, who were there, were from the slave-vessels. These, too, were usually there on account of disease, whereas those from other ships were usually there on account of accidents. The health of some of the former was so far destroyed, that they were never wholly to be restored.
An idea came to his relief: accidents like this might be likely to happen with some frequency, now that business urgencies would often call Hertford and St. John from his side, they being members of the Council of Executors; therefore perhaps it would be well to strike out a plan himself to meet the requirements of such emergencies.
I am very sure that we shall meet again; and almost as sure that we shall meet fighting for the right," added the Frenchman. "But I hope you will be a passenger on board of the Dornoch, as you suggested to me a little while ago.

She makes excuses for the absent Barndale, but fancies all manner of things in her feminine fashion, preferring to believe in fevers and boat accidents and other horrors rather than think that a valet has been lazy or a postman inaccurate. Papa Leland, who is here to take care of his womankind, has ideas of his own on some matters.
The refinement prevails and, as it were, succeeds; holds its own in the medley of accidents, where nothing else is refined unless it be the amplitude of the 'quiet' note in the front of the Metropolitan Club; amuses itself, in short, with being as extravagantly 'intellectual' as it likes.
"And there's a boxful upstairs, but I think I like the white muslins best, they look so pretty when they are clean, and you don't have to be so careful." "Do you ever get scolded when accidents happen?" "Well, not much. Cousin Eunice is so sweet. Cousin Elizabeth was more particular." "And Miss Winn?" "Oh, my dear Rachel loves me too much," the child said laughingly.
