Hayes was away from the village when Mrs. Cat had arrived there; but he did not fail to hear of her illness, and how her aunt had deserted her, and the good Doctor taken her in.
Хэйс был в отлучке, когда мисс Кэт вновь появилась в родных краях; но, воротившись, не замедлил узнать о происшедшем - как она заболела и как тетка от нее отступилась, а добрый пастор приютил ее у себя.

We are so used to clocks and watches that we fail even to realize the import of their indications.

Another point worth mentioning is that it's possible for a string to survive an equality test but fail a LIKE test.

Nor, in quite other aspects, does Nature in her least palpable but not the less malicious agencies, fail to enlist among her forces this crowning attribute of the terrible.
Да и сама Природа, уже совсем в ином виде, в своих наименее уловимых, но от этого отнюдь не менее зловредных проявлениях, не пренебрегает услугами этого довершающего признака, свойственного всему ужасному.

Rest assured of this, that if all else fail I have always a safeguard here"-drawing a small silver-hilted poniard from her bosom-"which sets me beyond the fear of these vile and blood-stained wretches.
Можете не сомневаться. А на худой конец у меня есть вот это, - заявила она и вытащила из-за пазухи небольшой кинжал с серебряной рукояткой, - и мне не страшны эти низкие кровожадные негодяи.

State officials who fail to take action to prevent violations of the right to life should be prosecuted and punished, regardless of their rank or position.
Государственные должностные лица, которые не принимают мер для предупреждения нарушений права на жизнь, должны преследоваться в судебном порядке и наказываться, невзирая на их должность или служебное положение.

Second, Marx's process, as he did not fail to notice, must in strict logic lead to monopolies or oligopolies of those firms that have once gained an initial advantage.
Во-вторых, экономический процесс по Марксу, как он и сам смог заметить, по логике должен приводить к монополиям или олигополиям для тех фирм, которые однажды получили первоначальное преимущество.
