On the same date Sir John Colborne was gazetted as Lieutenant-Governor of Upper Canada, but he did not reach the seat of his Government until late in the autumn, and Sir Peregrine did not actually demit office until the arrival of his successor. William Davenish and Andrew A. Thompson. The former stated that in the event of his being called as a juror he would "put it on to" Collins.
I stowed it away before I went on deck, that it might not fall into your ravenous maw." "Mind your stops, my Jack of the Bonehouse, or I shall shy a biscuit at your head." "Do, and prove your bravery; it will be so very courageous. I suppose you will expect to be gazetted for it."
On his arrival at the station, he at once reported himself to the colonel. "Ah! I saw your name in the gazette, a short time since. You must have lost no time in coming out from England." "I was in India when I was gazetted, sir." "Well, I am glad that you have joined so speedily; for I am short of officers, at present. There is a spare tent, which my orderly will show you.
My uncle will be gazetted to-day. Poor man, he will be delighted; and as he certainly owes it much to me, he will, I suppose, be very grateful or hate me ever afterwards that is a toss up. A benefit conferred is a complete hazard between the thumb of pride and the forefinger of affection. Heads gratitude, tails hatred!
In the barracks that morning a gazetted notice was posted, announcing, with such technical language as is the custom, that Sergeant Fones was promoted to be a lieutenant in the Mounted Police Force of the North West Territory. When the officer in command sent for him he could not be found.
Thus it was, that scarcely ten days subsequent to the meeting in the Paseo, which we have described, Lieutenant Bezan was regularly gazetted as captain of infantry, by honorable promotion and approval of the governor-general. The character of Tacon was one of a curious description.
His successor in the office of King's Printer was Mr. Robert Stanton. Ante, p. 171. Ante, p. 13. Ante, pp. 171-174. Ante, p. 136. Ante, p. 42 et seq. Sir Peregrine was gazetted to be "Lieutenant-Governor of Nova Scotia and its dependencies" on the 14th of August, 1828.
This touched the son, but Saville laughed him out of the twinge of good feeling; and very shortly afterwards, Percy Godolphin was gazetted as a cornet in the Life-Guards. The life of a soldier, in peace, is indolent enough, Heaven knows! Percy liked the new uniforms and the new horses all of which were bought on credit.
Warton died May 21st, 1790. The laurel was vacant for a month, when Henry James Pye was gazetted. There was hardly a hungry placeman in London who had not as just pretensions to the honor. What poetical gifts he had displayed had been in school or college exercises.
The ships were gazetted there as the Esperanza and her consort, that the news of it getting to England before we did might prepare the beloved family in some degree for what was in store. Once more we will return to that pretty drawing-room, and visit the kind sisters, the grey-headed father, the loving mother.
