Wherever this man Wallingford went he left behind him a trail of high hopes, a glimpse of a better day to dawn.
Immediately after the dispersal of the meeting Mr. Wallingford and “Mr. Dorcas” shook hands ecstatically.
With his children (of whom he had eight), the surname became Wallingford.
Wallingford looked him squarely in the eyes, with an entire change of manner, and chuckled.
You can bet your life 'at this job's been done by them whose little game Wallingford were going to checkmate!
