Famous quotes containing the words traverse and/or county:

    The wind speeds her,
    Blowing upon her hands
    And watery back.
    She touches the clouds, where she goes
    In the circle of her traverse of the sea.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    A horse, a buggy and several sets of harness, valued in all at about $250, were stolen last night from the stable of Howard Quinlan, near Kingsville. The county police are at work on the case, but so far no trace of either thieves or booty has been found.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
