No one would have mistaken him for anything other than a stable-boy or hostler, and these aristocratic brats always made it a point never to look twice at a servant. |
When the two of them reached the entrance to the stables, a hostler came walking up. |
Work allocation was conducive to the development of adaptations because hostler crews benefited by hastening their assigned tasks. |
But the diesel kept going, because the hostler, not being a trainman, had never thought of trying the coupling. |
So the hostler cracked his whip, spurred on the lead horse on which he was seated, and the carriage splashed into the estuary. |
Mrs. Fairbank remains with the hostler, and favors me with a look at parting. |
