"I must go on now, David. I'll meet you at the church in an hour." "You are going to the house, Palmer?" "Yes. Good night." Gaunt drew back his hand, glancing at the cold, tranquil face, the mild blue eyes. "Good night," following him with his eyes as he rode away. An Anglo-Saxon, with every birthmark of that slow, inflexible race. He would make love philosophically, Gaunt sneered. A made man.
Her defeated rival the man now most regarded and feared in the mountain country was the man with the reticent mouth, mild eyes, curious birthmark, and with the two little, perplexed wrinkles visible most of the time just between his dark eyebrows, the man listening intently to every syllable that fell from the lips of the trimly bloused, active girl opposite him, leaning forward in her eagerness to tell him things.
"But I am the boy's uncle, and an uncle has paternal power over his sister's children according to Chinese law. I know the boy by the birthmark on his wrist," said Lihoa. "Take your claims into court, and we will settle them there. In the meantime may peace attend you," repeated the missioner as he left the man.
So far as he could see the fellow was not unlike himself: he seemed to have the high-ridged nose of the family, which had become almost a birthmark in course of years.

But as she turned in going, his piercing eye discerned a little brown speck below the pretty lobe of her right ear, just in the peachy curve between neck and cheek.... His own little Zouzoune had a birthmark like that! he remembered the faint pink trace left by his fingers above and below it the day he had slapped her for overturning his ink bottle ...

So it was he came to cherish those two fancies before alluded to that the ominous birthmark she had carried from infancy might fade and become obliterated, and that the age of complete maturity might be signalized by an entire change in her physical and mental state. He held these vague hopes as all of us nurse our only half-believed illusions.
Evidently, cleanliness was not to be the birthmark of the new American, but this matter of discards concerned the measure of force little, while the chimneys and cinders concerned it so much that Adams thought the Secretary of State should have rushed to the platform at every station to ask who were the people; for the American of the prime seemed to be extinct with the Shawnee and the buffalo.
"A fine baby, Frank," said Berlin, as he stood looking at the child. "You ought to be proud of him." "No peacock was ever prouder," laughed Merry. "We hope to make a star of him, eh, Inza?" "Oh, the star the birthmark!" exclaimed Inza. "Can't you show it to Mr. Carson without waking the baby, Maggie?" "Oi kin try, ma'am."
