A LETTER IN REPLY TO A YOUNG GENTLEMAN OF YALE UNIVERSITY, by William McFee.

A letter in reply to a young gentleman R67535 The merchant marine and the young fellow.

" "I'll take your old medicine," was my reply.

I did not even reply to civil questions; and, though my silence was deliberate and good-natured, the assistant physician seemed to consider it of a contumacious variety, for he threatened to transfer me to a less desirable ward unless I should again begin to talk.

Another flagrant instance was that of a letter addressed to me in reply to one of those which I had posted surreptitiously.

The person to whom I wrote, a friend of years' standing, later informed me that he had sent the reply.

Do you see my point of view?" Miss Drewitt made no reply.

"Yes, my dear," was the reply.

It's strange that I should have a headache so soon after you; looks as though they're in the family, doesn't it?" Somewhat to the captain's relief she took up her book again without waiting for a reply, and sat reading until Mr. Tasker brought in the tea.

Breakfast over, she dispatched a note to Mrs. Stobell by the housemaid, with instructions to wait for a reply.

Mr. Stobell made no reply.

Mr. Stobell made no reply, but with an agility hardly to be expected of one of his bulk dashed behind the galley again.

He also, in reply to further questions, assured him that the mutiny was an affair of the past, and, gaining confidence, begged him to hold the wheel steady for a moment.

"A little," was the cautious reply.

Miss Drewitt made no reply.

" Captain Bowers made no reply.

"On my consummate powers of concealment," was the reply.

" Captain Brisket looked at him, but made no reply.

There was no reply.

The petitioner refused to reply.

" The Captain made no reply; he seemed to hesitate; then he put his handkerchief on the point of his sword and walked forward.

" She made no reply, but she did not withdraw her hand, and he held it closely and glanced slowly about him.

And it is so terrible for a woman to stand alone!" He made no reply for a moment.

The treasurer's reply is characteristic: "The fort which I have been ordered to make in the town of San German, of which I am to be the commander, shall be made as well as we may, though there is great want of money ... and of carts, negroes, etc.

"It is no matter if you can not," would be the proper reply, "since it certainly is wrong; you have made a mistake in adding somewhere, but it is not worth while for me to spend two or three minutes apiece with all of you to ascertain where.
