| 47342 | A fit?" |
| 47342 | A girl going to war? |
| 47342 | A hoax? |
| 47342 | A month_ from now_ looks awfully far off; but_ last month_? |
| 47342 | A start of what? |
| 47342 | A zoo, is it? |
| 47342 | All His Honor could say was to gasp:--"How do you know that, Doc?" |
| 47342 | All such family gossip passing quickly, Gadsby said:--"But this Salvation Army work, Mary? |
| 47342 | An airport?" |
| 47342 | And I think,--in fact, I_ know_,--that Old Bill Simpkins was now,--that is, was-- was-- was, oh, just plain_ happy!_"What do you want to play?" |
| 47342 | And also:--"_ What!_ Bill Gadsby? |
| 47342 | And as for your''ball- bat''arm, as you call it, what of it? |
| 47342 | And did Branton Hills''landlords call upon Branton Hills''physicians? |
| 47342 | And did Frank doubt his ability to do so? |
| 47342 | And did Gadsby_ know_ Youth? |
| 47342 | And did Kathlyn ask:"How about it, Johnny?" |
| 47342 | And did Nancy want to buy out this shop? |
| 47342 | And did"Big Four"_ know_ Clancy and Dowd? |
| 47342 | And of how hard it is for a boy or girl to stand up and proudly(?) |
| 47342 | And pray, phwat ca n''t thot crazy Gadsby think up? |
| 47342 | And right in our glorious Branton Hills? |
| 47342 | And say, if a car brung only six months, how long will I squat in jail for swiping this half bun? |
| 47342 | And so, why could n''t our trio join that big group of musicians which is sailing soon? |
| 47342 | And to whom can a child look, but us adults? |
| 47342 | And was Gadsby''s mansion lit up from porch to roof? |
| 47342 | And was Marian happy? |
| 47342 | And was that old Atlantic ugly? |
| 47342 | And, as you thought of it, I''ll call it,--now wait;--what_ shall_ I call it? |
| 47342 | And_ did_ I block it? |
| 47342 | And_ now_ who do you think is hit? |
| 47342 | And_ was_ it a circus? |
| 47342 | And_ what_ do you think that stingy Council did? |
| 47342 | And_ who_ do you think was running for Council, now? |
| 47342 | Any kidnapping facts?" |
| 47342 | As Gadsby sat, going through this good word again and again, a mirthful chuckling had Lady Gadsby asking:--"What''s so funny about it?" |
| 47342 | As a happy tot was passing out that big, kindly front door, Sarah said:--"Was Councilman Simpkins always so grouchy, Lady Standish?" |
| 47342 | Auction for Big Four? |
| 47342 | Balloon? |
| 47342 | But Gadsby and Frank? |
| 47342 | But I thought of having a-- what did you call it, Mayor Gadsby?" |
| 47342 | But an airport_ would_ add a bit to it; now would n''t it?" |
| 47342 | But did it? |
| 47342 | But did that stop Gadsby? |
| 47342 | But how about Clancy and Dowd? |
| 47342 | But how many young folks know_ how_ this mail is put out so quickly, and with such guaranty against loss? |
| 47342 | But how_ could_ a baby go away from you without your knowing it?" |
| 47342 | But now, what would you call this station?" |
| 47342 | But to whom could Youth look for so big an outlay as a library building would cost? |
| 47342 | But what about our good Mayor during all this circus hullabaloo? |
| 47342 | But what about profits? |
| 47342 | But what man would n''t gladly bang his thumb, or bark his shins on a wobbly stool, to aid so charming a girl as Kathlyn? |
| 47342 | But what''s all this fuss about? |
| 47342 | But who is all this mob that will turn His Honor''s dining- room into a thirty- foot hall? |
| 47342 | But why all sich high- brow stuff in naming critturs? |
| 47342 | But why all this talk about our own inconspicuosity? |
| 47342 | But you_ should!_ How could I know what was going on? |
| 47342 | But, as all this stuff is laid out, what will you do with it? |
| 47342 | But, during this rush and hubbub, how about Frank? |
| 47342 | But, finally, just to pry a bit into that baby mind, His Honor said:--"Looks kind of good, do n''t it?" |
| 47342 | But, how to show that class what a contribution could do? |
| 47342 | But,_ is_ it? |
| 47342 | Ca n''t anybody say anything? |
| 47342 | Can you stop a rising wind? |
| 47342 | Did Gadsby thrill? |
| 47342 | Did important thoughts for still improving Branton Hills pass through his busy mind? |
| 47342 | Did it fly away?" |
| 47342 | Did that long- past, happy day float in glowing colors through his mind? |
| 47342 | Did you angrily slam a door, which might so jolt a high- strung tot as to bring on nights and nights of insomnia? |
| 47342 | Did you put many humps in that soil which a small child might trip on? |
| 47342 | Did you say''us''? |
| 47342 | Did you so constantly snarl at it that it do n''t want you around? |
| 47342 | Do n''t you know how to play that? |
| 47342 | Do n''t your folks look out for you?" |
| 47342 | Do n''t_ you_ want to fly? |
| 47342 | Do you go oop? |
| 47342 | Do you know Frank Morgan, Paul Johnson and John Smith? |
| 47342 | Do you know anybody by----?" |
| 47342 | Do you want His Honor to think I do n''t cook nuthin''for you? |
| 47342 | Do you want an actual zoo, or an outfit of toys that wind up and growl?" |
| 47342 | During this calm, happy talk, a patrolman, coming up, said:--"Shall I stick around, Your Honor? |
| 47342 | Finally that big kindly man, thoughtfully rubbing his chin, said:--"Whom did your Dad rob?" |
| 47342 | Frank did n''t want to hold it back from Nancy, but what can a chap do, against forty? |
| 47342 | From whom was it? |
| 47342 | Fussing about a baby? |
| 47342 | Gadsby''s parry to this rising youthful ambition for light on political affairs was:--"Why will a duck go into a pond?" |
| 47342 | Gadsby_ was_ happy; for, was n''t this a tonic for his spinal column? |
| 47342 | Going in?" |
| 47342 | How about our old Organization of Youth days? |
| 47342 | How about your man''s photo, now?" |
| 47342 | How big a man is it?" |
| 47342 | How is Lady Gadsby holding up during this awful war?" |
| 47342 | How many want to go?" |
| 47342 | How many you guys go to it, anyway? |
| 47342 | How many, Priscilla? |
| 47342 | How much for this big black? |
| 47342 | How much? |
| 47342 | How much? |
| 47342 | How much?" |
| 47342 | How soon will you want it?" |
| 47342 | How tall is it? |
| 47342 | How will it look? |
| 47342 | How''s that for quick thinking?" |
| 47342 | How''s that?" |
| 47342 | How? |
| 47342 | How? |
| 47342 | How?" |
| 47342 | How_ could_ it occur? |
| 47342 | Huh? |
| 47342 | I''m soliciting for funds for a stadium for----""_ Marian!_"sang out Virginia,"_ What''s_ all this? |
| 47342 | If a boss shows a man what a tool is for; and if that man is any good, at all, why bring up this stuff you call training? |
| 47342 | If a man wants to throw old clothing away and buy stylish outfits, what affair is it, but his own? |
| 47342 | In fact, did you put_ anything_ in that back- path of yours which could bring sorrow to a child? |
| 47342 | In whom? |
| 47342 | Is anybody in it? |
| 47342 | Is it about a baby?" |
| 47342 | Is n''t anybody going to hold it?" |
| 47342 | Is this God''s parlor?" |
| 47342 | Is this tot your grandchild?" |
| 47342 | Is this town plumb crazy? |
| 47342 | It ai n''t a lavatory what you want, is it?" |
| 47342 | It got around almost to Christmas, only a fortnight to that happy day; but,--happy in Gadsby''s mansion? |
| 47342 | It''s all right to do what your Dad will do, is n''t it?" |
| 47342 | Just run that pair of sliding doors back, put that parlor lamp upstairs; and that piano? |
| 47342 | Lady Gadsby said again and again:"What_ is_ going on?" |
| 47342 | Lady Gadsby, from a parlor window, said:"Practicing for a stumping tour, or a political pow- wow?" |
| 47342 | Laugh? |
| 47342 | Nobody was n''t in it, so why not grab it? |
| 47342 | Now what? |
| 47342 | Now, if that hardly shows up, how about_ you_? |
| 47342 | Oh, is that you, Daddy?" |
| 47342 | Old Bill took a look, and said, growlingly, to His Honor:--"What''s all this stuff, anyway?" |
| 47342 | Old Bill, slowly and surprisingly softly, said:--"What do you want to play?" |
| 47342 | On that_ pond_? |
| 47342 | Or do I swat you?" |
| 47342 | Or start its distrust of you, as its rightful_ guardian_? |
| 47342 | Our aviator? |
| 47342 | Our giggling girl, swinging in again, said:--"What? |
| 47342 | Phwat''s that in your hat? |
| 47342 | Phwat''s this, anny way?" |
| 47342 | Play with a kid? |
| 47342 | Put a string on it so you could run around with it?" |
| 47342 | Sarah, still ogling that"rooms"column said, softly:--"Four to six rooms? |
| 47342 | School out?" |
| 47342 | Shall it stay so? |
| 47342 | So Gadsby said:--"What do you think of_ this_? |
| 47342 | So a jolly call of:--"What''s on your mind, boy?" |
| 47342 | So how can you bring such a group forward as''pupils?''" |
| 47342 | So why build a night school? |
| 47342 | So why not drag out and sort all that stuff, discarding all which is of no valuation? |
| 47342 | So why should n''t I? |
| 47342 | So, trotting up and grasping Old Bill''s hand, this tot said:"_ You''ll_ hold it, wo n''t you?" |
| 47342 | So--""Nina,"said Lady Gadsby;"do you know what brought him out of his old shut- in way of looking at things?" |
| 47342 | Studying_ what_?" |
| 47342 | Taking about what? |
| 47342 | Talking about what? |
| 47342 | Talking about what? |
| 47342 | That darlin''girl has found a mountain of gold wid Norman an''----""Who''s that wid Norman? |
| 47342 | That night as Gadsby and Simpkins sat talking in His Honor''s parlor, who would,"just by luck,"(??) |
| 47342 | That night as Gadsby and Simpkins sat talking in His Honor''s parlor, who would,"just by luck,"(??) |
| 47342 | That''s just grand; but what will Papa say?" |
| 47342 | This small minority got up a slogan:--"Why Spoil a Good Old Town?" |
| 47342 | Thorn? |
| 47342 | Tiny Nancy, almost swooning, said:--"Donaldson? |
| 47342 | Took his aircraft to_ what_ city? |
| 47342 | Took? |
| 47342 | Walking into Lady Standish''s parlor, Simpkins said:--"This kid has lost a- a- a- crittur; I think it was a pup, was n''t it, kid?" |
| 47342 | Want any gravy?" |
| 47342 | Want to walk around my zoo?" |
| 47342 | Was Gadsby happy? |
| 47342 | Was Nancy all right? |
| 47342 | What an opportunity to watch that grouchy old--""That_ what_?" |
| 47342 | What do you want, anyway?" |
| 47342 | What for? |
| 47342 | What form of disposal was awaiting"Big Four", as Clancy and Dowd took a fond joy in dubbing this pair of blacks and two roans? |
| 47342 | What good am_ I_? |
| 47342 | What good is that bunch of hair and horns, anyway? |
| 47342 | What is a patrolman for, if not to watch for just such abominations as this, pray?" |
| 47342 | What is his Dad doing now?" |
| 47342 | What is it, darling?" |
| 47342 | What is it? |
| 47342 | What is sad about it? |
| 47342 | What kind of a dot would_ you_ form in comparison? |
| 47342 | What kind of a thorn?" |
| 47342 | What was going on? |
| 47342 | What was it? |
| 47342 | What was this city coming to?" |
| 47342 | What will this town amount to if it blows in dollars so fast?" |
| 47342 | What would this city do with a balloon? |
| 47342 | What would this wiping out of his folks do to him? |
| 47342 | What''s Sarah hunting for, Paul?" |
| 47342 | What''s all this?" |
| 47342 | What''s that, Julius? |
| 47342 | What''s up?" |
| 47342 | What''s up?" |
| 47342 | What''s wrong? |
| 47342 | What? |
| 47342 | What_ is_ it, anyway? |
| 47342 | What_ is_ this, anyway? |
| 47342 | When introducing young ladies into the story, this is a_ real_ barrier; for what young woman wants to have it known that she is over thirty? |
| 47342 | Which way could that poor kid look without finding it? |
| 47342 | Who is back of you?" |
| 47342 | Who is starting this group?" |
| 47342 | Who owns him, Sarah?" |
| 47342 | Who''s this Addison? |
| 47342 | Who? |
| 47342 | Who_ got_ this young school- girl drunk? |
| 47342 | Why did n''t you notify your old Dad?" |
| 47342 | Why is this town so slow? |
| 47342 | Why not roll it out into my front hall? |
| 47342 | Why not, pray?" |
| 47342 | Why rack brains by digging into it?" |
| 47342 | Why should a woman want Big Four? |
| 47342 | Why this prolonging of agonizing inactivity? |
| 47342 | Why, oh,_ why_ do n''t folks think of that? |
| 47342 | Will that cop put him in jail, Mayor Gadsby?" |
| 47342 | With that stamp right on top?" |
| 47342 | Woozy? |
| 47342 | Would n''t God----?" |
| 47342 | XXII But what about Branton Hills''municipal affairs, right now? |
| 47342 | You and Harold Thompson? |
| 47342 | You did what? |
| 47342 | You thinka your man can worka all right, firsta day, huh? |
| 47342 | You want to know all you can about matching and crossing your stock, do n''t you? |
| 47342 | Your trio was fooling, was n''t it? |
| 47342 | _ And did Nancy look good to Branton Hills?__ What_ a glorious tan, from days and days on shipboard! |
| 47342 | _ Bah!_"But Lady Standish did n''t mind Old Bill''s ravings having known him so long; so said:--"Oh, how''s that old corn of yours? |
| 47342 | _ How_ could that child vanish so?" |
| 47342 | _ I_ did n''t go to any such school; and what am I now? |
| 47342 | _ I_ do n''t shout at tiny girls, do I?" |
| 47342 | _ I_ put him in a burlap bag? |
| 47342 | _ Not drunk?_"_ God! |
| 47342 | _ Oh, why_ did n''t I try to stop Norman''s drinking?" |
| 47342 | _ What?_ Put up on a block as you would a Jap urn or a phony diamond?" |
| 47342 | _ What?_ Put up on a block as you would a Jap urn or a phony diamond?" |
| 47342 | _ What?_ Virginia, is that you? |
| 47342 | _ What?_ Virginia, is that you? |
| 47342 | _ What?__ Two_ whacks at that bird? |
| 47342 | _ What?__ Two_ whacks at that bird? |
| 47342 | _ What_ was Parson Brown in that cabin for? |
| 47342 | _ Why_ was it? |
| 47342 | _ You_, soliciting?" |
| 47342 | and did John Smith say:"Nothing doing"? |
| 47342 | and looking up at a hospital assistant,"Is it bad?" |
| 47342 | said Lady S."Why_ should n''t_ a child croon to a puppy? |
| 47342 | say, Bill; will_ that_ cigar blow up? |
| 39482 | ''At he wanted to know what time it wor, or owt? |
| 39482 | A bathe? |
| 39482 | A real country holiday, eh? |
| 39482 | Ah, how are you, Dafydd? 39482 Ah, that tower''s Saracenic, is it?" |
| 39482 | And how much longer holiday have you? |
| 39482 | And now, Mr. Pritchard, do you think I might tell them that sec- ret? 39482 And then you go back to Liverpool?" |
| 39482 | Any good looking in there? |
| 39482 | Are ye coming in to hev''a tot? |
| 39482 | But might n''t it have been half- past ten, or eleven, or even half- past eleven? |
| 39482 | But we ca n''t do anything but wait, dear, can we? |
| 39482 | But-- but-- what would you do? |
| 39482 | Can anybody tell me whether there have been many wrecks on this coast? |
| 39482 | Chucking it? |
| 39482 | D''ye remember a chap coming in, a thin chap,''at spoke Welsh to t''Missis? |
| 39482 | Do they pull down his fences? |
| 39482 | Do you know where Dafydd Dafis is? |
| 39482 | Do you mean you walked all night? |
| 39482 | Does anybody know where Dafydd Dafis is? |
| 39482 | Eh? 39482 Eh?" |
| 39482 | Good morning, Mr. Gruffydd; papers in yet? 39482 H- what is this, Howell Gruffydd?" |
| 39482 | Has the moment at last arrived when we quaff? |
| 39482 | Have you any witnesses? |
| 39482 | He sell us two thousand acres, of our own land, for how mut- ss? |
| 39482 | How d''you do, Mr. Garden? 39482 How did she do it?" |
| 39482 | How''s t''barril going on, Tom? |
| 39482 | How, owt? |
| 39482 | Hugh Morgan? |
| 39482 | Hwhat do you say? |
| 39482 | Hwhere should I go to? |
| 39482 | I hope Dafydd Dafis does not incommode you with the road- engine, Thomas Kerr? 39482 I suppose we''ve stopped to take more passengers up?" |
| 39482 | I suppose you mean Tommy Kerr? 39482 I suppose you''re not Welsh by any chance?" |
| 39482 | I thowt it wadn''t be far off.--Is t''barril there, Tommy? |
| 39482 | Is he taking over any other land? |
| 39482 | Is it true? |
| 39482 | Is that his name? 39482 It takes about twenty minutes to go round, does n''t it?" |
| 39482 | It''s-- it''s quite safe, is n''t it? |
| 39482 | Mmmmm, John Willie? |
| 39482 | Off out? |
| 39482 | Oh, you came Porth Neigr way, did you? |
| 39482 | Peth a elwir''adwydd''yn Saesneg, Dafydd? |
| 39482 | Roman, I''ve heard? |
| 39482 | S''all you be there, John Willie? |
| 39482 | See who that is, at the right hand rope? |
| 39482 | Shall we start on th''bread and cheese?----"Did ye think on to bring some pickled onions? |
| 39482 | So ye think there wor summat? |
| 39482 | The Wheel? |
| 39482 | The arbours? |
| 39482 | Then is he going to let them season for ever? |
| 39482 | Then it is true? |
| 39482 | There''s some talk of his making a Floral Valley, is n''t there? |
| 39482 | Think ye----again the look as of prickers,"--think ye there wor owt?" |
| 39482 | Think ye? |
| 39482 | Was it Wednesday? |
| 39482 | Wass- n''t it the Duke of Snell that mar- ried the Prin- cess Victorine? |
| 39482 | We are n''t as high as that, are we? |
| 39482 | Well, John Willie Garden, can you say''Llanfairpwllgwyngyll----''yet? |
| 39482 | Well, Thomas Kerr,he had said,"how are you? |
| 39482 | What did you say her name was? |
| 39482 | What do you say, Armfield? |
| 39482 | What is he like, this one? |
| 39482 | What is that? |
| 39482 | What more do you want? |
| 39482 | What time is it? |
| 39482 | What''s that I was going to ask you, now?... 39482 Where are all the men?" |
| 39482 | Where''s Dafydd Dafis? |
| 39482 | Where''s everybody? |
| 39482 | Who is it? |
| 39482 | Who told you, William Morgan? |
| 39482 | Who''s come? |
| 39482 | Why did n''t you tell me? |
| 39482 | Wor your watch i''your pocket? |
| 39482 | Would n''t that be a little too-- timely? |
| 39482 | Yes, the day it looked like rain; you remember? |
| 39482 | You come to fis- s? |
| 39482 | You did n''t stay long in Llanyglo, did you? |
| 39482 | You here that, Gruffydd-- Comrade Gruffydd? 39482 You look for Eesaac Oliver?" |
| 39482 | You mean you''d just go from place to place? |
| 39482 | You will be here to- morrow? |
| 39482 | _ Oes genych chi dystion?_"_ R''oeddwn efo John Willie Garden._("He says he can call the son of the man who is building a house there, sir.") |
| 39482 | ''Drive as gently as you can, Dafydd Dafis''is his orders.... You are off to the Marine Hotel now, Thomas Kerr? |
| 39482 | ("_ Oeddych chi ar y tir yma am ddeg o''r gloch y noson hono, Dafydd Dafis?_"This from the interpreter.) |
| 39482 | ("_ Oes genych chi dystion, Dafydd Dafis?_")"Eh?" |
| 39482 | ("_ Oes genych chi dystion, Dafydd Dafis?_")"Eh?" |
| 39482 | ***** What do the Welshmen think of it all? |
| 39482 | *****"Kerr?" |
| 39482 | *****"When did you arrive? |
| 39482 | --"But surely,"exclaimed his friend,"it''s a difficult piece of navigation?" |
| 39482 | --"What''s happened to the newspapers this morning?" |
| 39482 | ----""H- what is this about Delyn and the Water?" |
| 39482 | --You try? |
| 39482 | ... Now I''m anxious not to go to extreme lengths----""Eh?" |
| 39482 | ... Who says coal, then?" |
| 39482 | A pause, and then, the speaker''s eyes on his hearer''s face like two prickers:"Did yet tak''your waistcoat off?" |
| 39482 | After a pause,"Eh?" |
| 39482 | Again Eesaac Oliver''s voice was heard, as if borne upon a wind:"--he that loveth father and mother more than Me----""Is his father here?" |
| 39482 | And Ynys? |
| 39482 | And again Miss Norah:"Who was Taliesin? |
| 39482 | And among the businessmen of Liverpool the whole thing is still a rich joke.--"Well, have you started building that house of yours in Wales yet?" |
| 39482 | And how is all in school? |
| 39482 | And how is the harp? |
| 39482 | And how''s So- and- So getting on?" |
| 39482 | And she has no past-- how can she have a past when all is a poignant and lovely present, that endures to the end?... |
| 39482 | And the Kerrs themselves? |
| 39482 | And those who should help, do they help? |
| 39482 | And who was Terry Armfield, that his affairs should thus become mixed up with those of Llanyglo? |
| 39482 | And you''re stopping at the''Majestic''? |
| 39482 | And_ if_ Gilbert( not bearing ancient Mrs. Pritchard too much in mind) finds the longevity at Llanyglo remarkable, what''s the harm in that? |
| 39482 | As for that snuffling Howell Gruffydd...."So that''s it, Mister Treacle- Tongue, is it?" |
| 39482 | As he turned along the landing to his own room he heard a door opened on the floor above, and his sister called"Is that you?" |
| 39482 | Ashton?" |
| 39482 | At the sounding of the trumpets his head flew proudly up; at the Drawing of the Sword and the solemn question,"Is there Peace in the land?" |
| 39482 | But then, who would have thought of looking? |
| 39482 | But there''s always a crab somewhere....*****"I wonder if Armfield''s gone yet? |
| 39482 | C? |
| 39482 | Ca n''t you take a leaf out of his book?" |
| 39482 | Can we, in the unshared solitude of our hearts, bear to think of this rank and damp and steaming human undergrowth at all? |
| 39482 | Come on to the Dinas and have a smoke....*****"How''s John Willie Garden? |
| 39482 | Dafydd Dafis, say? |
| 39482 | Dafydd Dafis? |
| 39482 | Did they come to understand one another the better for it? |
| 39482 | Did they suppose they could plant themselves thus in the enemy''s midst and not meet with hostile entertainment? |
| 39482 | Did you ever see the great python that died lately at the Zoo climb his ragged staff of a tree? |
| 39482 | Did you see me?" |
| 39482 | Did you want to dress for dinner, and to have your luggage carried by a man in a red jacket? |
| 39482 | Did you want to read or to idle, to botanise or merely to forget your cares for a fortnight, to picnic up the Trwyn or to have your meals in bed? |
| 39482 | Did you write the let- ter to me, Eesaac Oliver? |
| 39482 | Do n''t forget you''re to meet him to- night...."You''re sure you ca n''t dine with me? |
| 39482 | Do n''t you think it''s a pleasant room? |
| 39482 | Edward Garden? |
| 39482 | Eh?... |
| 39482 | For this, in a manner of speaking, was Llanyglo''s March, and what though it lasted two, three, four years? |
| 39482 | Garden been in this morning yet?... |
| 39482 | Had she feared that he was about to put his hand upon her? |
| 39482 | Half his days John Willie spent in and out of the water without a stitch on him, and he no longer had a pair of sand- shoes to his name.--And Minetta? |
| 39482 | Have you had supper?" |
| 39482 | He blinked up at the sky, and from time to time called across to Dafydd Dafis,"Peth a elwir( whatever the English word might be) yn Cymraeg, Dafydd?" |
| 39482 | He forgot these things, stared at her, and suddenly exclaimed,"Why, what''s the matter?" |
| 39482 | He gave Terry a longish look...."Do you know Wales?" |
| 39482 | He had been talking about compensation and whispering with attorneys and such- like, had he? |
| 39482 | He had sat up, and was looking at her.--"You mean-- that you wo n''t go back at all?" |
| 39482 | He had what he had only on the condition that, by comparison with his hunger, it was and must remain nothing.... What then? |
| 39482 | He is giv- ing-- I have seen them-- new pictures-- pictures of the construc- tion of flowers--(bot- tany I think it is called, Miss Pritchard?) |
| 39482 | He pointed to his father''s old reservoir colza lamp on the table.--"And I''ll show you the staircase presently.... Sell? |
| 39482 | He think he put his Saxon pistol to our heads like this? |
| 39482 | He was n''t to be seen mostly; he was busy inside; but when he did come out he never turned his head.--Sober? |
| 39482 | He''s driving in the mountains? |
| 39482 | Hear the post- horns? |
| 39482 | Hereupon folk had begun to ask one another: What about the Kerrs''title? |
| 39482 | How are you, Thomas Kerr?" |
| 39482 | How d''you do, madam? |
| 39482 | How d''you do, miss? |
| 39482 | How is the rheumatics?--How are you, Hugh?--Is this your youngest, Mrs. Roberts? |
| 39482 | How long''s she staying?" |
| 39482 | How''s Eesaac Oliver? |
| 39482 | Howell Gruffydd, all blandishments to his face, had been making secret inquiries behind his back, had he? |
| 39482 | Howell tried to smile.--"Indeed, how can I answer a question like that,''What is this we hear?'' |
| 39482 | I can see nothing else!--And the tea is n''t there? |
| 39482 | I say, are n''t you feeling a bit cold? |
| 39482 | I suppose you''re thinking of the Welsh names of the streets? |
| 39482 | I suppose you''ve heard all about that?" |
| 39482 | I''m off back to- night, and I''ll bring''em up to- morrow.--But you will be here wo n''t you?" |
| 39482 | II ADIEU"You''re leaving Llanyglo? |
| 39482 | If_ this_ was the Saxon invasion, why had they not welcomed it long ago? |
| 39482 | In Manchester? |
| 39482 | Indeed, who would make a better one? |
| 39482 | Is it right''at Briggs is to build you a new house ovver yonder?" |
| 39482 | It grew like a mushroom; there are people who were born here who do n''t know their way about their own town.... Mostly Welsh? |
| 39482 | It suits Howell Gruffydd''s book, as you see, and Howell has pacified John Pritchard with the promise of Bazaars; but the others? |
| 39482 | It''s merely that I remember it as it used to be...."Would it surprise you to learn that the whole place is only about thirty years old? |
| 39482 | Ithel, where is your handkerchief? |
| 39482 | John Pritchard? |
| 39482 | John Roberts? |
| 39482 | Let''s have a look.... No, he''s still there....*****"A good season? |
| 39482 | Let''s study it out.... We com''home at tea- time that day, did n''t we?" |
| 39482 | Lucky, lucky dog!--Did I tell you he was the adopted Conservative Free Trade candidate for one of the Manchester divisions? |
| 39482 | Made quite a job of it too.--How? |
| 39482 | Move, and she might still be off as suddenly as a hare; sit still and say"Hallo, Ynys, not much in the chair- mending line up here, is there?" |
| 39482 | Mr. Garden removed his glasses, wiped them, replaced them, and then, looking over the top of them, spoke:"Where''s Dafydd Dafis?" |
| 39482 | Next year? |
| 39482 | No, no, I know he''s home for his holidays; I saw him driving Mr. Pritchard''s hay- cart yesterday; I mean when is he going to Aberystwith?... |
| 39482 | No? |
| 39482 | Not bad for a little turned forty, eh? |
| 39482 | Now!--Can any boy or girl tell me what there iss to be in Mr. Pritchard''s field next month?" |
| 39482 | Now, Johannes Guglielmus, what will you imbibe?" |
| 39482 | Only last night? |
| 39482 | Or did she not think of it at all? |
| 39482 | Or taking another stroll along the Pier? |
| 39482 | Or would we all, Minetta, the Squire, you, I, have felt meanly and skulkingly relieved when the last tail- light had died away in the night again? |
| 39482 | Or-- or-- could it be that that sweet clamour of her person had all along shown patient intention, and that he, he only, had been dull?... |
| 39482 | People come out from the concerts on the pier- head just to have a look...."The Pier looks tiny from up here? |
| 39482 | Percy was ordering the drinks now--"Vermouth, Val? |
| 39482 | Perhaps you or your sister can tell me the reason why these strata are contorted?" |
| 39482 | Perhaps-- perhaps-- it was not so; and yet-- what, after all, can the victor do to the vanquished more than vanquish him?... |
| 39482 | Politics Edward Garden''s"line"?... |
| 39482 | Pritchard?" |
| 39482 | Raymond gave a short laugh.--"Me?" |
| 39482 | Roberts?" |
| 39482 | See that little puff of smoke over there? |
| 39482 | Shall we follow them?... |
| 39482 | Shall we sit down? |
| 39482 | She was a_ partie_, for John Pritchard was well- to- do; but for whom? |
| 39482 | Sit down, wo n''t you? |
| 39482 | Smythe?... |
| 39482 | So the prosecuting solicitor stood up before Dafydd Dafis, and this kind of thing began:"Were you on this land at ten o''clock that night?" |
| 39482 | So you have arrived? |
| 39482 | Something that would n''t burn, whatever? |
| 39482 | Still at Porth Neigr?... |
| 39482 | Stretch yourself first, and then have a look down.... That''s a surprise, is n''t it? |
| 39482 | That was what it meant to her, that silver mark that ran round the edge of her foot as a vein runs round the edge of a pebble.... And for the future? |
| 39482 | That will accustom them to public life and speaking in the Chapel? |
| 39482 | That will make them ready speakers, hwhat? |
| 39482 | That''ll be better than going about barefoot and getting her poor little foot cut, wo n''t it?" |
| 39482 | The Laceys and Briggses, on a property qualification? |
| 39482 | The Prinss of Wales, say you? |
| 39482 | The others? |
| 39482 | The posters at Euston do n''t overstate it, do they? |
| 39482 | Then why have n''t you cassis?" |
| 39482 | There is heather and wild thyme up the Trwyn, very comfortable to doze on; suppose we have our nap up there?... |
| 39482 | There was one before it-- just one before it, not counting the original cottages, of course...."What do you say to a turn? |
| 39482 | There was something else he had to do; what was it?... |
| 39482 | There''s only one thing he wo n''t do----""Eesaac Oliver?" |
| 39482 | These were the weeds, the dusty groundsel of words; Ynys was her own vocabulary, every part of her a part of speech.... And the theme? |
| 39482 | They do say the smell of road- tar is a very healthy smell----""H- what is this we hear, Howell Gruffydd?" |
| 39482 | They thought they could dish Tommy Kerr like that, did they? |
| 39482 | They were going to build a walled enclosure, were they? |
| 39482 | They were lads, and right, in Lancashire.--Wales? |
| 39482 | Think ye?..." |
| 39482 | Those other great robed and wedding- dressed blooms? |
| 39482 | To what uses are seaweeds put?" |
| 39482 | Very well; but you''ve seen all there is to see...."Here we are.... What''s going on at the Light? |
| 39482 | Was it worth while trying for Dafydd Dafis again? |
| 39482 | Was n''t there a frightful row about it?" |
| 39482 | Was the song a success? |
| 39482 | We''ll take the other way....***** Now we''re on the level; better put your tie straight-- or are n''t you overpowered by these things? |
| 39482 | Well, holidays must come to an end.--You''d like another walk up the Trwyn? |
| 39482 | Were they who took part in that Pow- Wow so"poetical and romantic"for the one part, so blunt and rough and practical for the other? |
| 39482 | What about Armfield?" |
| 39482 | What did she think of it? |
| 39482 | What do you say to our going down and having a closer look at them? |
| 39482 | What do you think of it? |
| 39482 | What is grass? |
| 39482 | What though residents groaned under the burden of the rates? |
| 39482 | What though visitors grumbled and talked about extortion? |
| 39482 | What was John Willie like to look at by this time, and what was his outlook on the world? |
| 39482 | What was it that the eyes of his spirit saw, far, far, farther off than her seaweed ones saw the sea? |
| 39482 | What was it that the thought of his sister, coming at this moment, reminded him of? |
| 39482 | What''s the key, Harry? |
| 39482 | What''s up?" |
| 39482 | When did he flourish? |
| 39482 | When, presently, he put it gently down, she made no further attempt to hide it; what was the good, since he had seen? |
| 39482 | Whence came these stone- carts and timber- carts, these girders and castings, a single one only taking up a couple of trucks? |
| 39482 | Where did they come from, and what are they doing here? |
| 39482 | Wherever did you find him? |
| 39482 | Which of us can say without misgiving that he would have remained in Llanyglo? |
| 39482 | Which piece is it you want?" |
| 39482 | Who is there?... |
| 39482 | Who were these people who strolled among the droning bees of the sandhills or pushed out from the shore in boats? |
| 39482 | Who would open his County History, or his books on Brasses or Church Plate, Memorials or Heraldry or Glass? |
| 39482 | Who would repair the staircase at the Plas, and restore its magnificent ceilings, and set the merry smoke streaming up its chimneys once more?... |
| 39482 | Who would waste a thought on antiquity? |
| 39482 | Who''s Gilbert Smythe? |
| 39482 | Who, in another twenty or thirty years, would care for the things he had cared for? |
| 39482 | Who, taken by- and- large, are these people, and where do they come from? |
| 39482 | Who?" |
| 39482 | Why did that pang at which he had winced instantly become another pang, at which he winced no less? |
| 39482 | Why else were they doing all they could to win its favour? |
| 39482 | Why else were they toiling day and night at their Pier, and at the building, section by section, of the sea- wall? |
| 39482 | Why is this?" |
| 39482 | Why?" |
| 39482 | William Morgan? |
| 39482 | Would Minetta Garden have looked on them with a sort of incurious interest as so many"types"? |
| 39482 | Would it not be bet- ter to come to the Chap- pel on Sundays?... |
| 39482 | Yes, I remember him.--His cottage? |
| 39482 | Yes, that links Llanyglo up.... Where did all these people come from? |
| 39482 | You did n''t quite expect that? |
| 39482 | You had a pless- sant journey?" |
| 39482 | You have only to ask yourself,"Who else should they be?" |
| 39482 | You might conceivably have questioned him to the extreme point when his unadmitting blue eyes would have said, as plain as speech,"What is an apple?" |
| 39482 | You remember him, do n''t you? |
| 39482 | You see that tallish man over there? |
| 39482 | _ Wai_--oh, you''ve come, have you? |
| 39482 | _ What_ was it, now?... |
| 39482 | he said...."D''ye mean purr us out?" |
| 39482 | he said;"what had he just been tell- ing them? |
| 39482 | ting!_ You have n''t cassis? |
| 37249 | ''Mirapolis''? |
| 37249 | A city?--in this reservoir bottom? 37249 Am I my brother''s keeper?" |
| 37249 | And Gomorrah? |
| 37249 | And about this Massingale affair-- you will not interfere again? |
| 37249 | And let him blackmail me? 37249 And still you wo n''t print this?" |
| 37249 | And the government? |
| 37249 | And the next minute? |
| 37249 | And the other? |
| 37249 | And the source could n''t possibly have become contaminated by the Cortwright germs? |
| 37249 | And the structure itself-- how high is it to be? |
| 37249 | And what started you off into the memory woods, particularly, to- night? |
| 37249 | And you are carrying that millstone? 37249 And you are trying to tell me that father made a hundred thousand dollars just in those few hours by buying and selling Mirapolis lots? |
| 37249 | And you have----? |
| 37249 | And you met him? 37249 And you-- you believed all this?" |
| 37249 | And your labor? |
| 37249 | Another seven? |
| 37249 | Anything else remarkable up your sleeve? |
| 37249 | Anything new? |
| 37249 | Are you never going to forget that senseless bit of twaddle? |
| 37249 | Are you sure? 37249 Are you-- are you_ plumb_ sure you can spare it?" |
| 37249 | Are you? |
| 37249 | As you were saying? |
| 37249 | Before Congress convenes, you mean? |
| 37249 | Believing that it was for the best interests of the railroad to come here? |
| 37249 | Brouillard, do you know what you are talking about? |
| 37249 | Brouillard,he grated huskily,"does this mean that you''re breaking with us, once for all?" |
| 37249 | But how? |
| 37249 | But now you think he is going to make his bluff good? |
| 37249 | But now,she queried--"now, I suppose, you have become reconciled?" |
| 37249 | But tell me, what would you do with your pot of rainbow gold-- if you should find it? |
| 37249 | But where is she now? |
| 37249 | But will you? 37249 But you did advise Mr. Ford to build the Extension?" |
| 37249 | But you have made the plans for this power plant, have n''t you? |
| 37249 | But you have the order? |
| 37249 | But your part in this horrible plot, Victor? |
| 37249 | Catching you, too, is it, Victor? |
| 37249 | Chief engineer, eh? 37249 Comparatively rich, you say?--and you washed this spoonful out of a single pan?" |
| 37249 | Curious that this particular fly should drop into your pot of ointment on your birthday, was n''t it? |
| 37249 | Did I? |
| 37249 | Did it agree with you? |
| 37249 | Did n''t I? 37249 Did n''t Smith know better than to take her down there at such a time as this?" |
| 37249 | Did you find out? |
| 37249 | Did you imagine that your workmen were any less human than other people? |
| 37249 | Did you sign those notes personally, or as president of the new company? |
| 37249 | Did you think we were going to cut the melon and hand you out a piece of the rind? 37249 Did you?--and before you had a stake in the game? |
| 37249 | Do n''t they? |
| 37249 | Do n''t you ever get beyond that? |
| 37249 | Do n''t you? 37249 Do you call_ that_ civilization?" |
| 37249 | Do you do it as other men do?--just to hear how it sounds? |
| 37249 | Do you know the reason why it was given? |
| 37249 | Do you know what I''m thinking about, Mr. Brouillard? 37249 Do you know, Brouillard, Hosford gets on my nerves, too? |
| 37249 | Do you mean to say that real farms with green things growing on them can be made out of that frightful desert we drove over yesterday afternoon? |
| 37249 | Do you really believe that? 37249 Do you think my daughter could walk it?" |
| 37249 | Do you want me to be frivolous or serious? |
| 37249 | Do you want me to say that I should have missed a great deal? 37249 Does he make that a command?" |
| 37249 | Does it date back to the handicap? 37249 Does n''t he want to make money?" |
| 37249 | Does the order cover more than the work on the dam? |
| 37249 | Does this formal notice that the waste- gates will be closed three weeks from to- morrow go as it stands? |
| 37249 | Even if it should give you another attack of the''seeing things''? |
| 37249 | Extenuating circumstances-- is that what you mean? 37249 For example?" |
| 37249 | Fuel for your power plant?--wood I take it? |
| 37249 | H''m,said the millionaire;"a cement plant, eh? |
| 37249 | Has it never occurred to you that she may be just a woman-- like other women? 37249 Has she told you so?" |
| 37249 | Have n''t you heard how the men of the desert camps kill each other for the chance to pick up a lady''s handkerchief? |
| 37249 | Have you been given to understand that this office is in any sense a tail to your Improvement Company''s kite? |
| 37249 | Have you heard the talk of the street? 37249 Have you seen Miss Massingale since noon?" |
| 37249 | He means to give you the casting vote? 37249 How about those notes in the bank? |
| 37249 | How are you, Mr. Massingale? 37249 How can any one predict that when Congress is not in session?" |
| 37249 | How can you know that? |
| 37249 | How can you tell? 37249 How did you know that I have been wanting to come up here once more before everything is changed?" |
| 37249 | How did you know? |
| 37249 | How do you know I gave him a hundred thousand dollars? |
| 37249 | How does that strike you? |
| 37249 | How is the line to- night, Sanford-- pretty clear? |
| 37249 | How straight is your tip, Harlan? |
| 37249 | How was that? |
| 37249 | How? |
| 37249 | Huh? |
| 37249 | I asked you who has been gossiping about me; not Grizzy? |
| 37249 | I knew, or thought I knew, that you were miles away, over in the Buckskin; and how could I call you? |
| 37249 | I suppose Harlan is getting ready to exploit the new sensation right? |
| 37249 | I want you to send a wire to Red Butte telling the smelter people that you will be glad to have them handle the''Little Susan''ore."And if I do? |
| 37249 | I wonder if you know how little I care? |
| 37249 | If it had succeeded? 37249 If they should happen to uncover a gold reef just now it would simplify matters immensely for Mirapolis, would n''t it? |
| 37249 | In less than a hundredth part of that time you''ll be at the top of the Reclamation- Service pay- roll-- won''t that help out? |
| 37249 | Is it a good reason? |
| 37249 | Is it business? |
| 37249 | Is it my fault that Massingale ca n''t pay his debts? |
| 37249 | Is it so? 37249 Is n''t that your notion?" |
| 37249 | Is she-- the one incomparable she-- worth it, Victor? |
| 37249 | Is that all you have to say? |
| 37249 | Is that all you have to say? |
| 37249 | Is that all? |
| 37249 | Is that the new name? |
| 37249 | It means a great deal to you, does n''t it? |
| 37249 | It''s about a hundred and twenty miles from this to El Gato, on the Grand Canyon, is n''t it, Mr. Brouillard? 37249 Let''s see,"said the newsman thoughtfully;"what is there worth taking that they did n''t take in the_ sauve qui peut_? |
| 37249 | May I break in with a bit of bad news? |
| 37249 | Meaning that he is too uncompromisingly honest to be one of us? 37249 Miss Massingale? |
| 37249 | My brother? |
| 37249 | No? |
| 37249 | Now for the business end of the deal-- why do n''t you sit down? |
| 37249 | Now tell me about the''Little Susan''; is the Blue- grass farm looming up comfortably on the eastern edge of things? |
| 37249 | Of course you do n''t take any stock in the rumor that the government will call a halt? |
| 37249 | Oh, yes; let me see; are they due to- day? |
| 37249 | On the dam, you mean? 37249 Ought I to know the gentleman?" |
| 37249 | Sell it? 37249 Shall I do what you would have me do, Amy? |
| 37249 | Since when? |
| 37249 | So you''re_ that_ kind of a fire- eater, are you? 37249 Still you say you do n''t want to scrap?" |
| 37249 | Supposing it was-- what''s the difference? 37249 Tell me one thing, Brouillard: what is your stake in the Massingale game? |
| 37249 | That brings on more talk-- about a thousand miles of it, does n''t it? |
| 37249 | That is your challenge, is it? |
| 37249 | That night, you mean? 37249 The Cortwright people want the road, do n''t they?" |
| 37249 | The Massingale mine, eh? |
| 37249 | The way to keep me from talking is to do it all yourself; what happened to me last night? |
| 37249 | The-- what? |
| 37249 | Then it is your opinion that if this were printed it would do the business? |
| 37249 | Then what happened? |
| 37249 | Then why are you so anxious to make old David a rich man at my expense? 37249 Then why did you do it? |
| 37249 | Then you have n''t heard? 37249 Then you will advise against the building of the Extension?" |
| 37249 | Under guard? |
| 37249 | We ca n''t stand for any more chaos than the gods have already doped out for us, can we? |
| 37249 | Well, did you succeed in placing the lady? |
| 37249 | Well, then, how about the choice between two evils? 37249 Well, what more do you want? |
| 37249 | Well, what of it? |
| 37249 | Well, why was n''t it fair? |
| 37249 | Well,said Grislow again,"what of it? |
| 37249 | Well,was the millionaire''s greeting,"you waited to be sent for, did n''t you?" |
| 37249 | Well? |
| 37249 | Well? |
| 37249 | Well? |
| 37249 | Well? |
| 37249 | Well? |
| 37249 | Well? |
| 37249 | What are the spellbinders doing, Grizzy? |
| 37249 | What are you going to do about it, Victor? |
| 37249 | What can you possibly know about the Assyrians? |
| 37249 | What can you, or any man who sets himself apart as you do, know about the troubles and besetments of ordinary people? 37249 What did I say? |
| 37249 | What did I say? |
| 37249 | What did he tell you? |
| 37249 | What do you know, Brouillard? |
| 37249 | What do you want this time? |
| 37249 | What does it mean to you-- to you, personally, and apart from the money your father might make out of it, Amy? |
| 37249 | What fact? |
| 37249 | What has all this bubble blowing got to do with the building of a temporary power dam and the setting up of a couple of cement kilns? |
| 37249 | What has given you the impression that you own me, Mr. Cortwright? 37249 What have I done to make you forget how to talk?" |
| 37249 | What is it? |
| 37249 | What is the active principle of your''sevens''--or have n''t you figured it out? |
| 37249 | What is the one thing you would n''t sell? |
| 37249 | What is your need? |
| 37249 | What is your tip? |
| 37249 | What makes you think that? |
| 37249 | What sort of a bug have you got in your cosmos this morning, Brouillard? 37249 What was the threat?" |
| 37249 | What would I do? 37249 What would you do with it? |
| 37249 | What''s come over you, lately, Victor? 37249 What''s doing, and who''s doing it?" |
| 37249 | What''s got into you? 37249 What''s that up there?" |
| 37249 | What''s the odds if you go to it and bring back the money? 37249 What? |
| 37249 | When have I ever bleated when I should have kept still? |
| 37249 | When is it? 37249 Where does the Honorable All- the- rest keep himself?" |
| 37249 | Where was it you saw them, Castner? |
| 37249 | Who is Lord Falkland? |
| 37249 | Who is your treasurer? |
| 37249 | Who said that? |
| 37249 | Why do n''t you drop in once in a while and give me the run of things? |
| 37249 | Why do you ask me? |
| 37249 | Why do you doubt it? 37249 Why do you want to know?" |
| 37249 | Why not? |
| 37249 | Why not? |
| 37249 | Why not? |
| 37249 | Why not? |
| 37249 | Why should n''t I say it? 37249 Why should n''t we take to- day, the only day we can be sure of having, and use and enjoy it while it is ours? |
| 37249 | Why should you doubt it? |
| 37249 | Why should you? 37249 Why the devil did n''t you fellows turn out?" |
| 37249 | Why''of course''? |
| 37249 | Will you come along? |
| 37249 | Will you go with me, Victor? 37249 Wo n''t you?" |
| 37249 | Yes? |
| 37249 | Yes? |
| 37249 | You are Amy-- and this is that other world you used to talk about, is n''t it? |
| 37249 | You are certain that your information did n''t originate right here in Mirapolis-- in Mr. Cortwright''s office, to locate it more exactly? |
| 37249 | You are ready to let go, are you? |
| 37249 | You are selling Mirapolis holdings short to- day, Garner? |
| 37249 | You could n''t conjure an omen out of that, could you? 37249 You did this deliberately, Victor, weighing all the consequences? |
| 37249 | You do n''t deny them? |
| 37249 | You have n''t been tumbling into the ditch with Leshington and Griffith and the rest of us and making love to the little sister, have you? |
| 37249 | You interested yourself? 37249 You mean that I have brought my cut finger to you?" |
| 37249 | You saw President Ford after I did; what did he say when he was over here? |
| 37249 | You say you saw the money in father''s hands; tell me, Victor, did you see him pay it into the bank? |
| 37249 | You say you''re goin''down to the Buckskin right away? 37249 You say your father has borrowed of the bank-- is Mr. Cortwright mixed up in the loan in any way?" |
| 37249 | You sent for me? |
| 37249 | You will marry her? |
| 37249 | You would n''t let pride-- a false pride-- stand in the way of her happiness? |
| 37249 | You''ll be up on the stagings yourself, wo n''t you? |
| 37249 | You''ll bet money h- on dat?--h- all de money you got? |
| 37249 | You''ll rob an old man first, and then call him a thief and set the sheriff on him, will you----? |
| 37249 | You''ll surely want to give me my instructions a little beforehand, wo n''t you? 37249 You''re Brillard, the government man, I take it?" |
| 37249 | You''re giving Garner a blank card to buy for your account? 37249 You''ve borrowed to meet these notes?" |
| 37249 | You''ve had it out with Cortwright? |
| 37249 | You, Victor? |
| 37249 | You? 37249 You?" |
| 37249 | You? |
| 37249 | Your business, maybe; it falls right in your line, does n''t it? |
| 37249 | Your father is n''t at home? |
| 37249 | Ze dinnare-- she was h- all right, M''sieu''Brouillard? |
| 37249 | _ He had the money?_ Where did he get it? |
| 37249 | _ He had the money?_ Where did he get it? |
| 37249 | Am I making it plain?" |
| 37249 | And he has spent ninety thousand dollars on the''Little Susan''in sixty days? |
| 37249 | And how will you get it here?" |
| 37249 | And the girl on horseback? |
| 37249 | And then, without any bush beating, the critical question was fired point- blank:"What becomes of all these fellows you are dropping? |
| 37249 | And then, without warning:"What if I should tell you that the railroad is not coming to the Niquoia, Amy?" |
| 37249 | And then:"Where is he now? |
| 37249 | And then:"You''re one of the Reclamation engineers? |
| 37249 | And your freedom-- how have you made a hundred thousand dollars in these few weeks? |
| 37249 | And yours is----?" |
| 37249 | And, besides, there''s Amy; you owe her something, do n''t you?--or do n''t you? |
| 37249 | Any truth in that?" |
| 37249 | Anybody seen him since?" |
| 37249 | Are n''t we just as far from a carbide shop as we are from the dynamo? |
| 37249 | Are you a silent partner in the''Little Susan''?" |
| 37249 | Are you all packed?" |
| 37249 | Are you asleep?" |
| 37249 | Are you catching on?" |
| 37249 | Are you going to be_ very_ busy this afternoon?" |
| 37249 | Are you going to marry the girl?" |
| 37249 | Are you going? |
| 37249 | Besides, did n''t Brouillard say I was to get an extension if I could?" |
| 37249 | Brought the cash, did you? |
| 37249 | Brouillard took another long minute at the office window before he said:"What would you do if you were in my place, Murray?" |
| 37249 | Brouillard was pointedly occupying himself at his desk, but he looked up long enough to say:"Whiskey, you mean?" |
| 37249 | Brouillard?" |
| 37249 | Brouillard?" |
| 37249 | Brouillard?" |
| 37249 | Brouillard?" |
| 37249 | But about this railroad fizzle; I do n''t relish the notion of having our little joke sprung on us before we''re ready to laugh, do you? |
| 37249 | But if you had a cut finger you would n''t go to a man in hell to get it tied up, would you?" |
| 37249 | But in this thing which you are proposing there are issues involved which----""You want time to think it over? |
| 37249 | But tell me, what are some of the things that may happen?" |
| 37249 | But what of it?" |
| 37249 | But why not, Mr. Brouillard? |
| 37249 | But you say the stock was to be released when the notes were paid-- what was to happen if they were not paid?" |
| 37249 | Buy corner lots in Niqoyastcà djeburg?" |
| 37249 | By the way, did you know that he_ is_ Lord Falkland now? |
| 37249 | Ca n''t you contrive to get word to me, some way-- after it is all over? |
| 37249 | Can we make the road pay if we bring it here? |
| 37249 | Can you give me my present figure?... |
| 37249 | Can you read minds and hearts as you do your maps and drawings? |
| 37249 | Can you remember the words?" |
| 37249 | Cortwright?" |
| 37249 | Cortwright?" |
| 37249 | Cortwright?" |
| 37249 | Cortwright?" |
| 37249 | Cortwright?" |
| 37249 | Did n''t I say just now that the town was crazy with excitement when I left to come up here?" |
| 37249 | Did n''t we agree that that money was poisoned? |
| 37249 | Did old David Massingale get out of J. Wesley''s clutches before the lightning struck?" |
| 37249 | Digging for information, I suppose?" |
| 37249 | Do I make it clear?" |
| 37249 | Do n''t you believe it?" |
| 37249 | Do n''t you know that it is only the very vainest people who say that?" |
| 37249 | Do n''t you know that?" |
| 37249 | Do you believe in Freiborg''s theory of the multiple personality? |
| 37249 | Do you get that, Murray?" |
| 37249 | Do you know that I once had the pleasure of introducing your good father to my bankers in Chicago? |
| 37249 | Do you know what that plank- faced organizer has got up his sleeve? |
| 37249 | Do you know what the men have named you? |
| 37249 | Do you know why? |
| 37249 | Do you remember that?" |
| 37249 | Do you wonder that I have lost the knack?" |
| 37249 | Does n''t it look good to you any more?" |
| 37249 | Does n''t your brother know that it is illegal to shoot a trout stream?" |
| 37249 | Facing them as I am obliged to face them, I am telling you-- but what''s the use? |
| 37249 | Father thinks too much of making money-- a great deal too much; and you----""Well?" |
| 37249 | First rate, I hope?" |
| 37249 | Fits like the glove on a pretty girl''s arm, does n''t it?" |
| 37249 | Ford?" |
| 37249 | Ford?" |
| 37249 | Garner, cancel my order to sell, will you? |
| 37249 | Grislow?" |
| 37249 | Had I ort to?" |
| 37249 | Had he not expressly declared that the object of the desert automobile trip was mere tourist curiosity? |
| 37249 | Has Gomorrah changed it?" |
| 37249 | Has anybody found out yet who touched off the gold- mounted sky- rocket?" |
| 37249 | Have n''t you any imagination?" |
| 37249 | Have n''t you met him? |
| 37249 | Have you ever been in the Blue- grass country?" |
| 37249 | Have you ever seen any vouchers for the money spent?" |
| 37249 | Have you got time to''put us next''?" |
| 37249 | He fights his way to his ends without caring much for the consequences to others; but tell me-- haven''t you been doing the same thing?" |
| 37249 | He will build the Extension if you advise it?" |
| 37249 | Honestly, now, Harlan, what do you think about it yourself? |
| 37249 | Hosford?" |
| 37249 | How about that?" |
| 37249 | How did you settle it finally?" |
| 37249 | How far is it up to where you are going to build your dam?" |
| 37249 | How is Steve this evening?" |
| 37249 | How is Steve?" |
| 37249 | How is the boy getting along? |
| 37249 | How is young Massingale getting along?" |
| 37249 | How long would it take you to get action in the Washington matter, do you think?" |
| 37249 | How much is it going to cost us to stay in?" |
| 37249 | How much is it going to cost us?" |
| 37249 | How much money have you got?" |
| 37249 | How much more time will you need to enable you to get returns from your shipments? |
| 37249 | How will that do?" |
| 37249 | How''m I goin''to secure you for this?" |
| 37249 | How_ can_ you be sure?" |
| 37249 | I thought you told me you merely went down and took a look-- didn''t butt in?" |
| 37249 | If there were time-- but you say this is the last day?" |
| 37249 | If you were the executive committee of the Pacific Southwestern, would you, or would you not, build the Extension? |
| 37249 | Is a man a mere bit of driftwood, to be tossed about in the froth of any wave that happens to come along, as Freiborg says he is?" |
| 37249 | Is it ever justifiable to do evil that good may come?" |
| 37249 | Is it true that you''ve had orders from Washington within the past few days to cut your force on the dam one half?" |
| 37249 | Is n''t it a part of your job?" |
| 37249 | Is n''t it worth something to realize that?" |
| 37249 | Is n''t that about the size of it?" |
| 37249 | Is n''t that so?" |
| 37249 | Is n''t there a possibility, just the least little shadow of a possibility, that I do n''t deserve to be punished?" |
| 37249 | Is that Boyer-- Niquoia National?... |
| 37249 | Is that all?" |
| 37249 | Is that asking too much?" |
| 37249 | Is that explicit enough?" |
| 37249 | Is that it?" |
| 37249 | Is that the plan?" |
| 37249 | Is that true?" |
| 37249 | Is there anything we can do?" |
| 37249 | Is your father here?" |
| 37249 | Is your telephone line up here in operation?" |
| 37249 | Is your work going to start up again? |
| 37249 | It figgered out this- a- way in the talk: they said, what''s the use o''takin''the money out o''one pocket and puttin''it into the other? |
| 37249 | It is to be war between us from this on?" |
| 37249 | Lack of money? |
| 37249 | Looks like I needed a janitor to look after my upper story, do n''t it? |
| 37249 | Massingale?" |
| 37249 | Massingale?" |
| 37249 | Massingale?" |
| 37249 | Mirapolis is already a city of frenzied knaves and dupes; did you realize that you were taking the chance of turning it into a wicked pandemonium? |
| 37249 | Must I be set down as hopelessly and irreclaimably frivolous just because I have chosen to laugh when possibly another woman might have cried?" |
| 37249 | Must you carry it?" |
| 37249 | Not more than that?... |
| 37249 | Now, then, does that stand the band- wagon upon its wheels again?" |
| 37249 | Oh, Victor, is it clean money?" |
| 37249 | Or is it going off for good?" |
| 37249 | Or shall I do what is best for you?" |
| 37249 | Shall I go over to the_ Spot- Light_ office and tell Harlan what I know?" |
| 37249 | Sixty days? |
| 37249 | Sommtime ve get de railroad,_ n''est- ce pas_, M''sieu''Brouillard? |
| 37249 | Suppose I should tell you that practically all of your bosses are in with us; what then?" |
| 37249 | THE TERROR 322 ILLUSTRATIONS"What would I do? |
| 37249 | Tell me, Mr. Brouillard, have you asked her to marry you?" |
| 37249 | That would be the reasonable conclusion, would n''t it?" |
| 37249 | The materials have all been tested, I suppose?" |
| 37249 | The only question is this: Is the one only and incomparable she worth the effort? |
| 37249 | The question is: Will they be rediscovered? |
| 37249 | The''Little Susan''has begun to pan out, has it? |
| 37249 | Then Miss Amy got word to you? |
| 37249 | Then he asked a question:"When is this little hell- on- earth going to be finally extinguished, Victor?" |
| 37249 | Then he put in the word of warning:"I suppose you''ll be dabbling a little in Mirapolis options after you get this note business out of the way? |
| 37249 | Then the inevitable question:"They''re sayin''on the street that you''re lettin''out half o''your men-- that so?" |
| 37249 | Then to Brouillard:"Say, young man; you do n''t mean to tell me that your father''s son needs a guardian, do you? |
| 37249 | Then, with a determined wrenching aside of the subject:"Are you going up on Chigringo this afternoon?" |
| 37249 | Then, with a purposeful changing of the subject:"Where is Miss Massingale? |
| 37249 | Then, with business- like directness:"What will you build it of?--concrete?" |
| 37249 | Then:"What has come over you lately, Brouillard? |
| 37249 | There were ideals in the beginning; you admitted it, did n''t you? |
| 37249 | There will be a called meeting of the directors here in this room to- morrow evening at eight o''clock, and----""Who calls it?" |
| 37249 | Think I do n''t remember how you were always ranting about the dignity of a man''s work and quoting Kipling at me? |
| 37249 | Think you could manage to get Ford on the wire and encourage him a little more?" |
| 37249 | To whom?" |
| 37249 | Want to come along?" |
| 37249 | Was n''t Massingale personally involved in some way?" |
| 37249 | Were the field- notes in when you left Washington?" |
| 37249 | What about a man''s natural limitations?" |
| 37249 | What about the dam? |
| 37249 | What are you calling it?" |
| 37249 | What are your orders from the department?" |
| 37249 | What are your two evils?" |
| 37249 | What became of the one hundred thousand dollars you gave old David Massingale?" |
| 37249 | What did he do with it-- gamble it?" |
| 37249 | What do we get out of life more than the day''s dole of-- well, of whatever we care most for? |
| 37249 | What do you mean? |
| 37249 | What do you say?" |
| 37249 | What do you say?" |
| 37249 | What do you think?" |
| 37249 | What happened when you were twenty- one-- or were you too busy just then chasing the elusive engineering degree to take notice?" |
| 37249 | What has your pay- roll been?" |
| 37249 | What have you been doing all these days when I have n''t been able to keep tab on you?" |
| 37249 | What have you done with old David?" |
| 37249 | What if I had gone about town contradicting the rumor?" |
| 37249 | What if the boomers were taking an unauthorized ell for their authorized inch? |
| 37249 | What is it the Good Book says? |
| 37249 | What is it?" |
| 37249 | What is it?" |
| 37249 | What shall I tell Miss Massingale when she asks about you?" |
| 37249 | What was the quarrel about, between him and Van Bruce?" |
| 37249 | What were you doing twenty minutes ago?" |
| 37249 | What will you do?--build your dam right here and take out your canal through the canyon? |
| 37249 | What''s the matter with our money? |
| 37249 | What''s up?" |
| 37249 | What''s your grief?" |
| 37249 | What''s your price?" |
| 37249 | What? |
| 37249 | When do those notes of yours fall due?" |
| 37249 | When will you want my expert opinion on your auxiliary dam?" |
| 37249 | Where did you say I''d find your wire office?" |
| 37249 | Where is she, and what was the message?" |
| 37249 | Where is your sense of humor?" |
| 37249 | Where will you get it? |
| 37249 | Where''s the boss?" |
| 37249 | Who has been telling you all these things about me?" |
| 37249 | Who says so? |
| 37249 | Why do n''t you care?" |
| 37249 | Why is Steve proposing to give this thing away? |
| 37249 | Why is n''t he working the bar himself?" |
| 37249 | Why should he go out of his way to quarrel with it on high moral grounds? |
| 37249 | Will you come down and see us off?" |
| 37249 | Will you saw it off with me that way?--until you''ve made the turn on the ore sales?" |
| 37249 | Wo n''t you ask me to sit down?" |
| 37249 | Would he go, if he might have the post of honor behind the pilot- wheel of the new sixty- horse, seven- passenger flyer? |
| 37249 | Would it go up, or down, with a sudden resumption of work on the dam?" |
| 37249 | Would n''t that be delightful?" |
| 37249 | Would n''t that be rather awkward?" |
| 37249 | Would n''t that set your teeth on edge?" |
| 37249 | Would the department place the men and the means instantly at his disposal? |
| 37249 | Would the miracle be wrought? |
| 37249 | Would you do it?" |
| 37249 | Would you give a hundred thousand dollars for the privilege of being able to say to her:''Come, dear, let''s go and get married''?" |
| 37249 | Would you mind telling me just why?" |
| 37249 | You ai n''t allowin''to use it on her, Victor?" |
| 37249 | You believe that, Amy? |
| 37249 | You do n''t need any kindergartner of a construction man to help you solve a little problem like that, do you?" |
| 37249 | You know that long, narrow sand- bar in the river just below the mouth of the upper canyon?" |
| 37249 | You say the men clear out when they are discharged-- isn''t that about what you''d do if you were out of a job?" |
| 37249 | You want something-- is it that damned Massingale business again? |
| 37249 | You want to keep your job, do n''t you?" |
| 37249 | You wo n''t forget that, will you?" |
| 37249 | You wo n''t turn us down on this, Brouillard?" |
| 37249 | You would say that''Bimi''would be just about the last thing in the world to put anybody to sleep, would n''t you? |
| 37249 | You''d put us out of business? |
| 37249 | You''ve eaten here before; what do you pay Bongras for a reasonably good dinner?" |
| 37249 | You''ve got some sort of an engineers''mess, I take it?" |
| 37249 | You_ are_ connected with it, are n''t you?" |
| 37249 | _ Savez?_"The chauffeur was adjusting something under the upturned bonnet of the touring- car and thus hiding his grin. |
| 37249 | am I really such a transparent egoist as all that?" |
| 37249 | do n''t you see? |
| 37249 | do you know that it is after ten o''clock?" |
| 37249 | in Chicago?" |
| 37249 | she panted,"is love a thing to be cheapened like that-- to be sinned for?" |
| 37249 | that touched you, did n''t it?" |
| 37249 | what in Sam Hill do you take us for?" |
| 37249 | would n''t that give you a fit of the creepies?--this far from civilization and a dynamo?" |
