It is so different from what we used to have at Blackdeep. Oh me! those evenings when father came in at dark, and Mr. and Mrs. Thornley came afterwards and we had supper at eight, and father and Mr. Thornley smoked their pipes and drank our home-brewed ale and we had all the news how much Mr.
"In what way do you think the work could have been done better?" "That is just what I can't tell you; I wish I could; but I'm not an artist, unfortunately. Naturally I want to see you do your best, and am not satisfied when you do anything less." Elisabeth tossed her head. "You are very hard to please, Mr. Thornley."
I have transferred the accounts to the Discount and Deposit National, where Leonidas Thornley stands guard against the new order that seeks to make business a synonym for crime."

Corbett said, "I guess all the young fellows were makin' a lot of her, but sure there's no harm in that." Miss Thornley was too busy examining her feet for possible frostbites to give in her contribution just then, but after she had put her coldest foot in a wash-basin of water she said, "I don't see how any woman can go the length of her toe with Rance Belmont, but young Mrs.
