Some pretended to think so; and Miss Kingsbury at High Fielding, who ought to know, laughed at me after she had asked me to go and see her and told me to 'try and find a nice domestic situation." The mimicry in the concluding words was delightfully funny, but Paul nodded sympathetically.
Then came the bitter reflection that what he would do would be done for the benefit of others rather than his own. What would Lord Frederic know of his benefactor when he should come to the throne as in such case he would do as Marquis of Kingsbury? Lord Frederic would give him no thanks, even were he to know it, which of course could never be the case.
Then, allowing the eye to follow along the southeastern curve of the Lake up to the mountains on the eastern side, the first great depression is the pass over which the Placerville road goes down the Kingsbury grade to Genoa. At the foot of the grade, at the entrance to the Carson Valley is Van Sickle's old place, one of the early day stage-stations on the Placerville road.
He heard Charles Bellingham telling funny stories to Irene and trying to amuse the girl; she was laughing, and seemed very happy. From time to time Bellingham took part in the general talk between the host and James Bellingham and Miss Kingsbury and that minister, Mr. Sewell. They talked of people mostly; it astonished Lapham to hear with what freedom they talked.
Greenwood's rooms. But he wasn't going to accept the loan of chambers in his own house as a favour from Mr. Greenwood. Hampstead on arriving at the house saw the Marchioness for a moment before he went to his father. "I cannot tell how he is," said Lady Kingsbury, speaking in evident dudgeon.

"Very little but what was kind, just one word at the last." "Something, I know, has hurt you," said the mother. "Lady Kingsbury has made me aware that she dislikes me thoroughly.
Kingsbury took her in charge, and started up with one company, in order to intercept the Indians and prevent their crossing before the main army arrived, as he knew it was in close pursuit of them. The boat soon came in view of Indians on both sides of the river Black Hawk and several lodges having already crossed over-when they were hailed by Lieut. Kingsbury.
It was at the respective ages of six and five that little Miss Maitland and little Miss Hurd had been discreetly conveyed to the decorous Back Bay Kindergarten which was known to all Bostonians of a certain class as the "Child's Cultural Institute" of Miss Dorcas Kingsbury. It was there they met, under the watchful eye and the eagle espionage of Miss Dorcas.

"I beg your pardon, Lady Kingsbury; I shall be in no way degraded."
Bud Kingsbury, our guide, philosopher, and friend, was broiling antelope steaks in camp one night. One of the party, a pinkish-haired young man in a correct hunting costume, sauntered over to the fire to light a cigarette, and remarked carelessly to Bud: "Nice night!" "Why, yes," said Bud, "as nice as any night could be that ain't received the Broadway stamp of approval."
