"Bob, this is worse than the Banbury crowd could devise," remarked Frank. "Yes. The only thing is that in this case it's friends who are responsible for it. Ugh! I'm sunk to the knees in water." "I'm in to the waist," said Frank. "They've gone the vandals! Off with the blindfolds. Well, this is a pretty fix!"
Kame took Honora's band in both her own. Some good thing, after all, could come out of this community such was the triumphant discovery the lady's manner implied. "My dear, don't you ever come to Banbury?" she asked. "I'd be so glad to see you. I must get Trixy to drive you over some day for lunch. We've had such a good time, and Cecil didn't fall asleep once. Quite a record.
"All right," cried Sir John, "I will give you 'God save the Queen." And he forthwith started it in a lusty voice, all the members joining in. The introduction of a cricket-ball might brighten all-night sittings in our own Parliament, though somehow I cannot quite picture to myself Mr. Asquith throwing catches to Sir Frederick Banbury across the floor of the House of Commons.
"And Mrs. Kame?" said Mrs. Holt. "She's a widow, and has a place at Banbury. "I never heard of her," said Mrs. Holt, and Honora thanked her stars. "And Howard approves of these mixed lunches, my dear? When I was young, husbands and wives usually went to parties together." A panicky thought came to Honora, that Mrs. Holt might suddenly inquire as to the whereabouts of Mr. Brent's wife.
The petition of Lord Banbury was subsequently laid before the Privy Council, when the sudden death of Queen Anne once more put an end to the proceedings. When the Hanoverian princes came to the throne, Lord Banbury again tempted fate by a new petition to the Crown.
My brother Tom is gone out of town this day, to make a second journey to his mistress at Banbury, of which I have good expectations, and pray God to bless him therein. My mind, I hope, is settled to follow my business again, for I find that two days' neglect of business do give more discontent in mind than ten times the pleasure thereof can repair again, be it what it will. October 1st.
"It is about my uncle's usual time." "When do you think of going?" "I may, perhaps, get as far as Banbury to-day." "Whose stables do you use at Bath?" was the next question; and while this branch of the subject was under discussion, Maria, who wanted neither pride nor resolution, was preparing to encounter her share of it with tolerable calmness.
She is, as you say, the sister of the Earl of Banbury, and is for the time at the town house in Knightwell Terrace. Moreover, if that news be worth while to so white-feathered a swain as yourself, the other, damsel, the dark one the one with the mighty pretty little foot lives there for the time as the guest of Lady Catharine. They are rated thick as peas in a pod.
There can be little doubt of a battle having been here fought, from the bones, urns, and tumuli discovered here and in the adjacent neighbourhood. This tumulus, in an ancient deed, is called the Pilgrim's Low. It was removed in making the turnpike-road from Banbury to Lutterworth, about the year 1770.
He said he was proud of me, and that he predicted that the academy would be proud of me, too. I tell you, Frank, it stirred me up. Strike me blue, if I don't try to behave myself." "Good for you, Bob!" "Strike me scarlet red and sky blue, if I don't try to deserve his kind words." Nothing seemed to ruffle Bob after that. He simply laughed at the snubs and jeers of the Banbury crowd.
