Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jack, Vol. 2 IN the middle of the forge, an immense hall-like room, imposing as a temple, where the daylight enters in yellow and luminous bars, and the shadows of the corners are suddenly illuminated by vivid ashes of red, an enormous piece of iron fastened to the ground, opens like some ever ravenous jaw, always in motion, seizing and press ing the red-hot metal fashioned by the hammer, amid a shower of sparks. This is the Screw. As the starting-point of an apprentice's educa tion, he is set to working the Screw.1 There, while handling the heavy vice, work that demands far more strength than a child's arms possess, he is learning as well the various tools of the work shop, and the handling and setting-up of iron.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jack's Story I didn't think I should like it, for I had generally spent my Sundays in playing about the streets; but I heard that boys in Sunday school got oranges and candies, and sometimes a present for Christmas. So just before Christmas I thought I'd go. They put me in a class with a very pleasant-looking young lady for a teacher; the boys called her Miss Gibson. She seemed so kind that it made me happy just to look at her. I'm glad that they did not put me under such a sober-faced woman as the teacher I saw in.

Download or read book Jack the Giant Killer Classic Reprint written by Anne Thackeray Ritchie and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jack the Giant-Killer Most of us have read at one time or another in our lives the article entitled Gigantes, which Is to be found in a certain well-known dictionary. It tells of that terrible warfare in which gods and giants, fighting in fury, hurled burning woods and rocks through the air, piled mountains upon mountains, brought seas from their boundaries, thundering, to overwhelm their adversaries; - it tells how the gods fled in their terror into Egypt, and hid themselves in the shapes of animals, until Hercules, the giant-killer of those strange times, sprang up to rescue and deliver the world from the dire storm and confusion into which it had fallen. Hercules laid about him with his club. Others since then, our Jack among the rest, have fought with gallant courage and devotion, and given their might and their strength and their lives to the battle, - that battle which has no end, alas! and which rages from sunrise to sundown, - although hero after hero comes forward, full of hope, of courage, of divine fire and indignation. Who shall gainsay us, if nowadays some of us may perhaps be tempted to think that the tides of victory flow, not with the heroes, but with the giants; that the gods of our own land are hiding in strange disguises; that the heroes battling against such unequal odds are weary and sad at heart; while the giants, unconquered still, go roaming about the country, oppressing the poor, devouring the children, laying homes bare and desolate? Here is The Times, of May, 1867, full of a strange medley and record of the things which are in the world together - Jacks and giants, and champion-belts and testimonials; kings and queens, knights and castles and ladies, screams of horror, and shouts of laughter, and of encouragement or anger. Feelings and prejudices and events, - all vibrating, urging, retarding, influencing one another. And we read that some emperors are feasting in company at their splendid revels, while another is torn from his throne and carried away by a furious and angry foe, by a giant of the race which has filled the world with such terror in its time. Of late a young giant of that very tribe has marched through our own streets; a giant at play, it is true, and feeding his morbid appetite with purses, chains, and watches, and iron park railings; but who shall say that he may not perhaps grow impatient as time goes on, and cry for other food? And meanwhile people are lying dying In hospitals, victims of one or more of the cruel monsters whose ill deeds we all have witnessed. In St. Bartholomew's wards, for Instance, are recorded twenty-three cases of victims dying from what doctors call delirium tremens. Which Jack is there among us strong enough to overcome the giant with his cruel, fierce fangs, and force him to abandon his prey? Here is the history of two men suffocated in a vat at Bristol by the deadly gas from spent hops. One of them, Ambrose, is hurrying to the other one's help, and gives up his life for his companion. It seems hard that such men should be sent unarmed into the clutch of such pitiable monsters as this; and one grudges these two lives, and the tears of the widows and children. I might go on for many pages fitting the parable to the commonest facts of life. The great parochial Blunderbore still holds his own: some of his castles have been seized, but others are impregnable; - their doors are kept closed, their secrets are undiscovered.

Download or read book Jack Adams the Mutineer Classic Reprint written by Frederick Chamier and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jack Adams, the Mutineer Fifty years ago, a ship to be at sea for three months, and no punishment, to occur was a rare circumstance indeed. But it was destined that the voyage should not be completed without recourse to the cat. On a complaint from the master, Mr. Fryer, that Matthew Quinta] had been guilty of mutinous behavior and insolent language, he was seized up, and received two dozen lashes. This punishment was not by any means adequate to the offence for, in voy ages of discovery, strict discipline is more requisite. Than at any other time. Left, as it were, without a friend to assist, the small ship's company in their frail bark, traqe the wide ocean. They are alone, and without a hope of assistance. The fire caused by negligence might destroy them - the drunkard might occasion mis chief, which no after-thought could rem edy - and the skulker, by being absent from his station, might lose a mast, or split a sail. It is, therefore due to the character of Bligh to say, that up to this time, although his language was coarse and disreputable, he never had been a tyrant. The first introduction of the cat gave occasion to many remarks between decks. Adams was the man who declared it absolutely necessary, and who said Quin tal had got merely what he deserved.
