Captain Mugford - H G Kingston W H G Kingston

Captain Mugford - H G Kingston W H G Kingston

We belong to a Cornish family of the greatest respectability and high antiquity-so say the county records, in which we have every reason to place the most unbounded confidence. The Tregellins have possessed the same estate for I do not know exactly how long; only I suppose it must have been some time after Noah disembarked from the ark, and, at all events, for a very long time. The estate of which I speak was in a wild part of the country, and not at that time very productive; but I believe that..

Ben Burton - H G Kingston W H G Kingston

Ben Burton - H G Kingston W H G Kingston

Dick Burton, you're a daddy! Polly's been and got a baby for you, old boy! exclaimed several voices, as the said Dick mounted the side of the old \Boreas,\ on the books of which ship he was rated as a quarter-master, he having just then returned from a pleasant little cutting-out expedition, where he had obtained, besides honour and glory, a gash on the cheek, a bullet through the shoulder, and a prong from a pike in the side. \Me a what?\ he inquired, bending his head forward with a look of..

Charley Laurel - H G Kingston W H G Kingston

Charley Laurel - H G Kingston W H G Kingston

A good many years ago, before, indeed, I can remember, His Majesty's Ship Laurel, a corvette of eighteen guns and a hundred and thirty men, commanded by Captain Blunt, formed one of the West India squadron. She, with another corvette, and a brig in company, came one fine morning off a beautiful island, then in possession of the French, although, as Dick Driver, from whom I got the particulars, said, properly belonged to England, at least, it once had. Of course, therefore, it was their business to..

Adventures in Australia - H G Kingston W H G Kingston

Adventures in Australia - H G Kingston W H G Kingston

Some years ago two travellers, mounted on wiry yet strong looking steeds, were wending their way through a forest in Australia. They were both young and dressed much alike in broad-brimmed pith hats, loose red shirts, corduroy trousers and high boots with spurs. Each of them had stuck in his belt an axe, a brace of pistols, and a long knife; while at his back was slung a serviceable-looking rifle, showing that they were prepared to defend themselves, should they encounter any treacherous blacks,..

Fred Markham in Russia - H G Kingston W H G Kingston

Fred Markham in Russia - H G Kingston W H G Kingston

Thank you, thank you; it will be very delightful, said Fred Markham. \It will be jolly, that it will!\ exclaimed his younger brother Harry; and home they ran as fast as their legs could carry them to find their father and mother. \Oh, father, father!-mother, mother!-may we go? May we go?\ they exclaimed in a breath together. \Cousin Giles has asked us, and he says that he will take very good care of us, and that he is not joking; that he is in real earnest, and that, if you will give us leave..

In the Rocky Mountains - H G Kingston W H G Kingston

In the Rocky Mountains - H G Kingston W H G Kingston

We were most of us seated round a blazing fire of pine logs, which crackled away merrily, sending the sparks about in all directions, at the no small risk of setting fire to garments of a lighter texture than ours. Although the flowers were blooming on the hill-sides, in the woods and valleys, and by the margins of the streams; humming-birds were flitting about gathering their dainty food; and the bears, having finished the operation of licking their paws, had come out in search of more substantial..

The Mate of the Lily - H G Kingston W H G Kingston

The Mate of the Lily - H G Kingston W H G Kingston

Jack Radburn, mate of the \Lily,\ was as prime a seaman as ever broke biscuit. Brave, generous, and true, so said all the crew, as did also Captain Haiselden, with whom he had sailed since he had first been to sea. Yet so modest and gentle was he on shore that, in spite of his broad shoulders and sun-burnt brow, landsmen were apt to declare that \butter wouldn't melt in his mouth.\ A finer brig than the \Lily\ never sailed from the port of London. Well built and well found-many a successful..

The Cruise of the Mary Rose - H G Kingston W H G Kingston

The Cruise of the Mary Rose - H G Kingston W H G Kingston

My family had for centuries owned the same estate, handed down from father to son undiminished in size, and much increased in value. I believe there had been among them in past generations those who feared the Lord. I know that my father was a man of true piety. \Casting all your care upon Him, for He careth for you,\ was his favourite motto. What a world of doubt and anxiety, of plotting, and contriving, and scheming, does this trust in God save those who possess it. On this blessed assurance..

The Frontier Fort - William H G Kingston

The Frontier Fort - William H G Kingston

Arthur Gilpin and Mark Withers walked down the High Street, arm-in-arm, on their return to their respective homes from the well-managed school of Wallington. They were among the head boys, and were on the point of leaving it to enter on the work of active life, and make their way in the world. They had often of late discussed the important question-all-important, as it seemed to them-\How are we to make our way-to gain wealth, influence, our hearts' desires?\ \For my part, I cannot stand a plodding..

The Ferryman of Brill - William H G Kingston

The Ferryman of Brill - William H G Kingston

A party of travellers were wending their way across a wide-spreading prairie in the north-west territory of America. As far as the eye could reach, the ground was covered with waving tufts of dark-green grass, interspersed with flowers of varied hue, among which could be distinguished the yellow marigold and lilac bergamot, with bluebells, hare-bells, and asters, innumerable; while here and there rose-bushes, covered with gorgeous bloom, appeared above the particoloured carpet spread over the country...

The Gilpins and Their Fortunes - William H G Kingston

The Gilpins and Their Fortunes - William H G Kingston

Andrew Bedient, at the age of seventeen, in a single afternoon,-indeed, in one moment of a single afternoon,-performed an action which brought him financial abundance for his mature years. Although this narrative less concerns the boy Bedient than the man as he approaches twice seventeen, the action is worthy of account, beyond the riches that it brought, because it seems to draw him into somewhat clearer vision from the shadows of a very strange boyhood. April, 1895, the Truxton, of which Andrew..

The Cruise of the Dainty - William H G Kingston

The Cruise of the Dainty - William H G Kingston

Not far from the broad and slow-flowing river Meuse stands the town of Brill. Flanders, in which it is found, formed at the period to which we refer a province of the dominions belonging to Philip of Spain. It was ruled with no very paternal hand by the Duke of Alva, who resided chiefly at Brussels. He had been employed for several years in burning, hanging, drowning, and cutting off the heads of his loving subjects, and torturing them in a variety of ways, in order to make them dutiful children..
