Mark Twain once famously said "there was but one solitary thing about the past worth remembering, and that was the fact that it is past and can't be restored." Well, over recent years, The British Library, working with Microsoft has embarked on an ambitious programme to digitise its collection of 19th century books. There are now 65,000 titles available (that's an incredible 25 million pages) of material ranging from works by famous names such as Dickens, Trollope and Hardy as well as many forgotten literary gems , all of which can now be printed on demand and purchased right here on Amazon.

(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Dick Ryder," says he, with that intolerable grin of his, "and there's sport ahead, is there, Dick? Pretty goldfinches to nest in your pockets, eh? So, so, Dick; and you look full-mettled for business. What?' And he stood there wagging the head upon his wry neck, as though he had fallen from the topsman's cart a while too soon. Old Irons said nothing, for he was mighty quiet when Timothy Grubbe was about; but I would not keep silence before a half-hanged, mal-faced mongrel like him. "And who are you, Timothy Grubbe," said I, "to come athrusting in your nose atween two gentlemen at supper? Does His Majesty give you that right along of the privilege to clap poor cullies in the Jug?" He grinned worse than ever, nodding his twisted head, but shot me an evil look out of his narrow eyes. "Ah, here's a wit," says he. "Here's a wit as the ladies of the Court have lost! A fine young gentleman, Captain Irons, and a fine clean job he made nigh Petersfield last week; and a fine entertainment, too, he will make someday upon Tyburn Tree, with the Ordinary apraying over him, and his heels akicking the air! 'T will be a better sight than you 'll make, Captain Irons, for all the little matter at Bedford, and Colonel Truscott's jade, that died a natural death, in course, last seventh of August. Why," says he, "I have known gentlemen of this kidney now for twenty years, and I 'll warrant I never put eyes upon a braver figure of a man than Galloping Dick. This is some nobleman's byblow, surely, Captain Irons," says he, addressing him but watching me. "Now, damn you!" I cried, getting off my seat, "an&quo...

(Excerpt from Godfrey Merivale Being a Portion of His Hist...)
Excerpt from Godfrey Merivale Being a Portion of His History The original home of the Merivales, in which, indeed, it had been their extravagant boast that they were autochthonous, was the county of Yorkshire. Here was the spreading theatre of their earlier achievements, mainly displayed in those days by raid and tourney of arms, and by a constant expansion of territory in the Ridings. They were a formidable family in feudal times, could bring into the field a small army, and cut their way, by one means or another - but chiefly by violence - into some position at Court. What broke them, as most houses of the kind were broken, was the long civil war which ended in the accession of the first Tudor sovereign. They were, of necessity, White, and shared in the fall of the Yorkists so thoroughly that Sir Edward Merivale, of Pontrack, the head of the house, found himself left with little more than bare acres, a smoking castle, and his own worthless life. Yet with that descent upon misfortune and indignity the family entered upon a new career. Keeps and castles, raids and forays were out of date; lands stretched green before fine mansions, and formal gardens grew where moat and dyke had been.

"I am going to kill him." "Seflor Juan," said Sword in his turn, "has insulted his sister, and I am going to give him a lesson in manners." Don Alameda waved his hand. "If what you state is correct," he said, "you are both right." Sword shot a glance at Mercedes, who stood, drawn to her full stature, tingling with her emotions, her large eyes fastened on him in wondering fear. Somehow, in that second, the absurdity of the situation struck him, and he had also a sense of irritation at the fanaticism which could plunge him into an unnecessary duel. He wished that he had given up the reckless Lagonard to his fate. "Seflor," said he to the father, " the statement I have made is true. The senorita and I encountered by accident. And even if it were not so," he added impatiently, "I cannot see what cause of offence you would have. You object to Captain Lagonard because he is a Frenchman. Would you object to me because I am an Englishman?" A signal change passed over the face of Alameda. "No," said he softly. "Now we come to what is due. It is a matter for discussion, senor. The Alamedas would have no right to object to the marriage of a daughter of their line to an English gentleman, such as you, senor." He bowed civilly, and with a gesture invited his guest to be seated, himself setting the example. Somewhat in bewilderment Sword obeyed, and in a minute more what would have appeared to be an amiable family party was engaged in talk together. "Providing the match were suitable in other respects, senor,&...
