Gladstone's "The State in its Relations with the Church," chap. viii. p. 315. Lang's New South Wales, vol. ii. p. 317, &c. See also, at 265-6, a series of similar statements. A good specimen of Dr. Lang's veracity occurs at p. 267, where the Church and School Corporation is said to have consisted chiefly of clergymen, whereas the majority were laymen.
Tabor, first man in, got 52, when a shower came. The first ball after the shower, Mr. Tabor hit at a dropping ball of Mr. Lang's, and was bowled. The whole side were then demolished by Mr. Lang and Mr. Ridley, for 109, and 64 second innings, while Oxford got 265 first innings. In 1876 Oxford had Mr. Webbe, an admirable bat, as he is still; Mr. Lang, who had been known to score; Mr.
It was Lang, the man he was to kill! In a moment the flying figure of the Free Trader had disappeared. With a last glance at Jean, who was slowly sinking back into the snow, Philip dashed in pursuit.

'Oh, cried Freda, who once, during a long absence of the family abroad, had been disposed of at Miss Lang's, 'there was always a kind of whisper among us that Miss Marshall was engaged, though it was high treason to be supposed to know. 'Was that the one you called Creepmouse? asked her brother.
Dickie Lang's words sank deep into Gregory's consciousness. A half-formed question found its way at last to his lips. "Do you think," he began, but was interrupted by the man at the wheel. "Can't make the inside channel. Have to go round." He altered the helm as he spoke. Dickie Lang jumped to his side. "We've got to run the short-cut, Tom. No use going round.
This is in fact part of that "hallucination" of which G. H. Lewes spoke; the scene came so completely before Boz that the words and phrases suggested themselves to him and could not be denied, and he did not ask them to give any account.
