Remember that whatever his errors may have been, he is my father the only relation I have in the world except yourself." "His whole life has been one long error," answered Jacob Nowell. "I tell you, child, the less you know of him the better." He was not to be moved from this, and would say no more about his son, in spite of Marian's earnest pleading.
Winthrop conducted the prosecution, mild and calm in manner, but resolutely bent upon punishment, and by him sat Dudley, Endicott, Bradstreet, Nowell and Stoughton; Bradstreet and Winthrop being the only ones who treated her with the faintest semblance of courtesy.
"My folly, as you are kind enough to call it, is not dependent on your encouragement, Belle." "Then it is really a serious case, I suppose," said Martin. "I really admire Miss Nowell more than I ever admired any one before, if that is what you call a serious case, Martin." "Rather like it, I think," the other answered with a laugh.
My brother-in-law wants me to go back to them for the 1st of September." "Then I think I shall run down to Forster's, and have a pop at the pheasants. It will give me an opportunity of being presented to Miss Nowell." "I shall be very pleased to introduce you, old fellow. I know that you will admire her."
"I lost a little girl a friend," said Farr, patting the shoulder. "It's this way with me What is your name?" "Freeland Nowell." "Mr. Nowell, I have poked more or less fun in my life at men who claimed to have missions.
"I will answer for her good faith," interposed Nicholas.

"You can take shelter beneath my roof," said Mistress Nutter; "and before the shower is over we can settle the matter."
Of this, however, neither Nowell nor I complained, as it gave us the very sort of employment we most enjoyed. One ordinary day's journey was very much like another. The first morning we were aroused before sunrise, and on going out of our tents we found our attendants with torches in their hands ready to accompany us.
There came a summer twilight, when Gilbert Fenton found himself once more upon the dewy lawn under the walnut-trees alone with Marian Nowell. He repeated his appeal in warmer, fonder tones than before, and with a kind of implied certainty that the answer must be a favourable one. It was something like taking the fortress by storm.
Just as I expected to see the herd of monsters appearing through the jungle, and either to see one of them roll over from the effect of my rifle, or to have one of his huge feet placed upon me, or to feel myself wriggling, like a worm in the beak of a bird, in his trunk, Nowell shouted out, "They have winded us they have turned they are running. On, on follow, follow."
Dango with another man led on foot, with Solon under their charge, Nowell and I following on horseback. Little did I think when I was a poor, knocked-about midshipman on board the Orion, that I should be able to travel about in Ceylon or anywhere else in such luxury. I think that I have scarcely done justice to the beauty of the scenery of the island and the infinite variety it presents.
