Summary of your 'study carrel' ============================== This is a summary of your Distant Reader 'study carrel'. The Distant Reader harvested & cached your content into a collection/corpus. It then applied sets of natural language processing and text mining against the collection. The results of this process was reduced to a database file -- a 'study carrel'. The study carrel can then be queried, thus bringing light specific characteristics for your collection. These characteristics can help you summarize the collection as well as enumerate things you might want to investigate more closely.

"What did she look like?" asked Kennedy keenly. night?" asked Kennedy, apparently not noticing her look. 5087 Miss Euston looked straight into Kennedy''s eyes as she added, without Kennedy looked long and carefully at the face of the sick man. Kennedy seemed to read her character and know that a girl like Maude "What makes you think he has been poisoned?" asked Kennedy, betraying seems so impossible here in New York." Doctor Murray looked at Kennedy Kennedy turned again into the dining-room, making his way back to the "She should be here any moment," returned Kennedy, looking at his watch "I should like very much to make what we call a psychanalysis of Mrs. Cranston''s mental condition," Kennedy explained. "H''m!" mused Doctor Burr, looking quickly from the card to Kennedy with I could see, as Doctor Burr introduced us to his patient, that Mrs. Cranston instantly recognized Kennedy''s interest in her case. "You look tired, Mrs. Cranston," remarked Kennedy, thoughtfully. MacLeod looked anxiously from me to Kennedy, but Craig betrayed nothing 5094 "Delighted," agreed Del Mar. Elaine gave him her hand and he took it in such a deferential way that Some time later, Del Mar''s car stopped just below the Dodge house. "You men go around back of the house and watch," ordered Del Mar. As they disappeared he turned and went up the Dodge steps. In the library, the little old man bent over Del Mar and Elaine. "Look," he cried pointing in an agitated way at Del Mar and Elaine. Del Mar had evidently, by this time, come to the conclusion that Elaine "Good," nodded Del Mar. He went to a drawer and from it took a peculiar looking helmet to which Del Mar seized the note which the man handed to him and read it Del Mar had not been gone long before Elaine decided to take a ride The motor-boat had started when Del Mar saw Elaine in the water. 51326 carbonic acid, whilst river water contains a considerable quantity explained from the fact that water which contains carbonic acid acids, salts, and such like substances whose solutions do conduct cases (for example, in the solution of nitric or formic acid in water) other acids form _solutions having definite boiling points_, like that [5] As water is formed by the combination of oxygen and hydrogen, with The oxide formed acts on sulphuric acid, water then organic substances are decomposed at a red heat, forming hydrogen, among with hydrogen, forming water, 69,000 units of heat are evolved; whilst when heated with sulphuric acid, forms oxygen and barium oxide, which _Many substances decompose hydrogen peroxide_, forming water and oxygen, water containing the nitrogen and oxygen of the air in solution, Chapter XX.) Water destroys this compound, forming sulphuric acid under the action of water (containing carbonic acid) and air, give 5149 Kennedy had risen and, as Norton described the Inca dagger, looked from Lockwood shook his head slowly, fixing his eyes on Kennedy''s face, but For a moment Kennedy now advanced and took Senorita Inez by the hand. "Senora de Moche is a friend of Mr. Whitney?" queried Kennedy. "I shall try to see Mr. Whitney as soon as possible," said Kennedy, as "Oh, it is a wonderful country, Professor Kennedy," went on Whitney, "Tell Senorita Mendoza that it is Professor Kennedy," he said to Inez Mendoza looked at Kennedy as though he possessed some weird power. "Mr. Kennedy should know what my opinion of Mr. Whitney is, I think," replied Norton confidently. Norton left shortly after Lockwood, and Kennedy again picked up the "Mr. Kennedy would like to know when he can see Mr. Whitney," I said, "What did Lockwood say about Norton?" asked Kennedy casually. 5150 "Let me present Mr. Kennedy and Mr. Jameson, Mrs. Ogleby," said Carton "No," exclaimed Carton hastily, this time meeting Craig''s eye frankly. Carton looked from Kennedy to me, to see what impression his theory Carton wanted the Black Book to use in order to win his political fight It was late that night that Kennedy and I left Carton after laying out Kennedy looked up quickly at Carton as he finished reading the letter. "Good-morning, Miss Ashton," greeted Carton, laying down the letters Carton turned suddenly at the word "us," but Miss Ashton was still From a cabinet, Kennedy took out what looked like the little black "What is it?" asked Carton, as Kennedy carefully took out the dark "As nearly as Carton can find out," said Kennedy quickly, "Marie is "Carton--Miss Ashton--this is Kennedy," he called. Carton looked Kennedy squarely in the eye again, and we all understood 5151 "Craig Kennedy will give up his search for the "Clutching Hand"--or "Mr. Kennedy--look out!" cried Elaine. Kennedy had taken from its cover Elaine Dodge''s picture and was gazing Quickly, like a good workman, Clutching Hand went to the telephone entering Elaine''s room after the Clutching Hand, who locked the door. "Why--yes," answered Elaine, following Craig with her deep eyes. "Oh, Mr. Kennedy," cried Elaine, handing him the note. A moment later Elaine and Craig followed, while Jennings finished Clutching Hand stood silent a moment, thinking, as he gazed at the man A moment later, Dr. Morton looked up at the Clutching Hand and nodded, A moment Clutching Hand looked Elaine over. Instantly, Craig read from the startled look on Elaine''s face that Clutching Hand was now holding Elaine near the door where she could not For a moment or two, Craig and Elaine looked at each other, neither 5270 Manton glanced up at Kennedy, echoing my thought. As Kennedy took the binder, Manton opened it and turned past several Finishing the thirteenth scene, Kennedy closed the covers and handed "You think that--" Manton started to question Kennedy, but was given no Kennedy thanked Werner and asked to be shown the studio floor used in Kennedy asked a few personal questions about Stella, but Millard''s "Mr. Phelps," Kennedy''s voice was soft, coaxing, "I don''t think Mr. Mackay quite understands.
