Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Governor, and Other Stories HE sleek, spirited horses picked their scornful way up the avenue, held in restive subjection by the impassive coachman - stouter than his companion, the footman fresh-faced, clean-shaven, solid upon the box and apparently oblivious of all greatness save his own, as a coachman should be. The glossy carriage, almost noiseless in its slow motion, held only a grim, gray - haired old man. Many eyes were bent upon him. Pedestrians paused to look at him. The occupants of other carri ages broke short their conversations, and turned to catch another glance as he passed. Here and there a hat was lifted. Without change of expression, however, except when the light of personal recognition occasionally lit up his face and he half automatically returned a bow, the tall, thin, commanding, much noticed and most noticeable personage sat almost motionless.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Governor Kajus Pleyelt Poss van Ruyter, known as "van Devil," lord of Brakkevold and Seven-Isles, always rose from his bed and went out into the fresh air before the morning dew had fallen. He did not follow the level and trodden paths, but preferred the secret ways where he might chance upon something that had been hidden, forgotten, or left unnoticed. He liked to creep along the bottoms of ditches, or in the shadow of thorn-hedges, and between the high boundary-dykes of the fields, so that he might come upon his work-people from the rear. And then they tasted his dog-whip. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Governors Letter Books 1818 1834 Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by Illinois Governor and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Governors Letter-Books, 1818-1834, Vol. 1 The Illinois State Historical Library presents in this volume the first of a new series which will be devoted to the manuscript material illustrating the office of the chief executive of the state. The letter-books here printed are in the office of the secretary of state at Springfield. The rule in printing has been to reproduce faithfully the copies as they were written, as far as the printed page can do so. There has been no attempt, therefore, to correct the spelling or punctuation of the original. In cases of doubt, however, the correct form has been chosen. One important change has been made. The letters were copied in the letter-book as opportunity and fancy dictated, so that order was entirely lacking and in many cases letters were copied twice. We have rearranged the material in chronological order, except in the case of enclosures, and have omitted the second copies, all the more important changes of this character being noticed in the foot notes; and we believe that this will make the volume more useful to students. In closing we wish to make our acknowledgments to Secretary James A. Rose for the courtesies he has extended to us and our assistants, and to Mrs. Jessie Palmer Weber for furnishing the copies of the portraits hat illustrate the volume.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Governor's Boss Her mother, owing to practice in tidily do ing her own clothes and the clothes for Ruth, was able to turn her hand to sewing for the neighbors - thus the wolf did not reach their door. Ruth, not quite purposeful enough to learn stenography or bookkeeping, or anything like a female profession, sought a position as tele phone operator, and after two or three years of assisting and substituting, finally reached the goal of her ambition. And no one has been heard to say that she did not perform her du ties with punctuality and dignity. Her grad nation from this position, or her degradation from it, as the reader may choose to regard it, must be reserved.
