De Saussure, trusting to your honour to keep silence about it. I am a friend of the coloured people." "Oh! So are we all," he said. "And I will never be rich at their expense." "By their means, is not necessarily at their expense," he said gently. "It is at their expense," I repeated. "I do not choose to be rich so.
These are veins of granite which have flowed from the contiguous mass into the stratified stone, and leave no doubt with regard to this proposition, that the granite had flowed in form of subterranean lava, although M. de Saussure has drawn a very different conclusion from this appearance.
"It is an indulgence but we all allow ourselves indulgences of one sort or another." "Besides, with a lady it is different," said De Saussure. "We poor fellows have nothing better to do, half the time." I had no wish to lecture Mr. De Saussure, but I could not help looking at him, which again seemed to rouse their amusement.
"I do not wish to send either of them there," was my incautious answer. "Do you think it is always wrong to fight?" De Saussure asked. I said no, with an internal shiver running through me from head to foot.
Of these three currents flowing in the direction of internationalism only one that of finance appears for the moment likely to reach its goal.... Cf. L'Humanité, April 10,1919. The sentence was subsequently commuted. La Gazette de Lausanne, May 26, 1919. 128th Division. It was reproduced by the French Syndicalist organ, L'Humanité of July 7, 1919. R. de Saussure. Cf.
"What is all this about De Saussure and Marshall?" he asked one day. "They have both gone home." "I know they have; but what sent them home?" "Mamma has been trying to make them go, this long while, you know, papa. She wanted them to go and join Beauregard." "And will they? Is that what they are gone for?" "I do not know if they will, papa. I suppose Mr. De Saussure will." "And not Marshall?"
My taste of it was light indeed; but a half hour with Miss Cardigan would have been inexpressibly good to me that day. So I thought, as I walked along the bank of the lake with Mr. De Saussure; and then I remembered "my hiding-place and my shield." "You are very silent to-day, Miss Randolph," said my companion at length. I may remark, in passing, that he had not been.
Let us go up the Arve to the valley of Chamouni. From this fertile valley, M. de Saussure heads us up the Montanvert, 428 fathoms above the level of the valley, and consequently 954 above that of the sea. From this mountain we descend again into the high frozen valley which runs between the granite mountains, and pours its ice into the valley of Chamouni.
"It is worth anything to maintain them." "It will not be much of a war," resumed De Saussure. "Those poor tailors and weavers will find their workshops are a great deal more comfortable than soldiers' tents and the battle- ground; and they won't stand fire, depend upon it." "Cowardly Yankees!" said Ransom. "That is Preston's favourite word," I remarked.
"Daisy has been under the disadvantage of hearing only one side lately," my mother remarked very coolly. "But about the provisions, Miss Randolph?" Mr. De Saussure insisted, returning to the point with a willingness, I thought, to have me speak. "Mamma says, I have heard only one side," I answered.
