26889No news?
26889Not Captain Berselius?
26889Now,said Adams in triumph,"do you remember that?"
26889Oh, we''ll get there,said Adams,"and shall I tell you why?
26889One moment; why did I not think of it before? 26889 Overwork?"
26889Paris?
26889Right or Left? 26889 Shall we try back?"
26889So you are back from-- where was it you went to? 26889 Some pressure?"
26889Sure? 26889 That is the road we came by?"
26889The thing is there-- has been there for years-- can you destroy the past?
26889This is due to the result of the injury, is it not?
26889Well,said Adams,"what''s wrong?"
26889Well?
26889What are the exports here?
26889What caused the trouble?
26889What did you bring this thing for?
26889What is it?
26889What is it?
26889What would you do?
26889What would you have? 26889 When I dream I become my old self again-- is that not strange?"
26889Where are you going?
26889Where did you lose the white men?
26889Which way?
26889Who is Monsieur Pugin?
26889Who, then, was Bauchardy?
26889Whom are you going with?
26889Why had they not told?
26889Why not?
26889Why, since you are back sound and whole, it seems to me you have not done so badly-- but perhaps you have got malaria?
26889Why, what on earth could you want with such an obsolete weapon as that?
26889Why?
26889Why?
26889Will you give me this man''s address? 26889 Yes?"
26889Yes?
26889Yes?
26889Yes?
26889You can see all right?
26889You have had to do with big game?
26889You know M. Thénard intimately?
26889You know your name?
26889You mean to say that everyone knows what I know?
26889Your mother?
26889_ Did you kill those people by the Silent Pools?_The awful man at the table was beginning to work himself up.
26889_ Did you kill those people----?_"Punishment,stuttered Meeus.
26889_ Ma foi!_said he,"it is terrible what you tell me, but what are we to do?"
26889''What are we to do?''
26889Adams?"
26889Ah, but is he?
26889Ah, yes-- you require a complete outfit, I suppose?"
26889And Berselius?
26889And how are the tigers?
26889And how is Madame Berselius?"
26889And now came the question, How would the soldiers take the death of the_ Chef de Poste_?
26889And now,"looking at his watch,"will you do me the pleasure of staying to_ déjeuner_?"
26889And which was the nobler instinct?
26889Are you prepared to act as medical attendant to my new expedition?"
26889As you give me so short a time to make my decision about you, I suppose you have already made your decision about me?"
26889Can you atone for your vices by losing your smell and taste for vice, and slip out of your debt for crime by becoming another man?
26889Captain Berselius?"
26889Could he do this?
26889Did you notice whether we were in the track for the last mile or so of our journey yesterday?"
26889Do we know how he answered it?
26889Do we know how she answered that question?
26889Do you feel yourself able to talk for a bit?"
26889Do you think he did not take that into his consideration when he planned the affair and laid down the factory?
26889Does the old man ever die?
26889Everything needful was in the instrument- case, but had it escaped destruction?
26889Have you any plans?"
26889He saw death, and to shut out the sight he put his big hands before his face----""And you?"
26889He was dying, but what beast full of life is more dangerous than the dying tiger?
26889Here in the open he had a hundred tiny indications on either side of him, but amidst the trees how could he find his way?
26889How could a man whose memory was almost entirely obscured lead them right?
26889How do you find it here, M. Meeus, when you are by yourself?"
26889How much is she?"
26889I have put it off, but I feel I must speak-- what has happened to him?"
26889I would not be tormented with the other self which is me, now?"
26889Is not that so?"
26889It is only the reasoning mind that fears death, the mind that can still say to itself,"What will come after?"
26889Now tell me, if you operate and remove the pressure, may I become myself again?"
26889Of what use?
26889Only for a moment he hesitated, then leading the way across the warm and flower- scented hall, he opened a door and said,"Will monsieur take a seat?"
26889Only in sleep do I become myself again-- do you understand me?
26889Say, how much is this thing?"
26889See here, why do n''t you start in Paris?"
26889The level eye that raised to no man and lowered before no man, the aspect of command and the ease of perfect control and power-- where were they?
26889The rotation of the earth?
26889Then he said,"You notice a change in your father?"
26889These had raised their voices calling for Justice-- with what result?
26889Thénard?"
26889Was Berselius under the influence of forced amendment of this sort?
26889Was it possible that Berselius would guide them back?
26889Was it possible that God''s world could hold two such creatures, and that God''s air should give them breath?
26889Was it possible that memory could lead him through that labyrinth once it grew dense?
26889Well, and how did the expedition go off?"
26889What are you doing with yourself?"
26889What do you know about him?"
26889What is the advice?"
26889What is this thing that has happened to me?"
26889What things have not slaked their thirst in this quiet water flooding past Matadi-- and wallowed in it?
26889When do you start?"
26889Whether he was dazed, or whether he knew that he had miscalculated his chances, who knows?
26889Who knows?
26889Why should I torment your heart as well as my own?"
26889Why should I turn away my face from suffering?
26889Why should he be haunted like this?
26889Why waste the other three?
26889Will an operation remove that pressure?"
26889Will you go to- morrow and see Monsieur Pugin?
26889Would Berselius be able to guide them amidst the trees?
26889Would Berselius be able to penetrate that jungle?
26889Would Berselius remember and turn, or would he get confused and go on in a straight line?
26889Would you like to come with me?"
26889You come to seek sympathy for this people amongst the French public?
26889You remember what you said to me when we parted?
26889do you remember that tree?
26889said Stenhouse,"when is it with a medical man, especially when he is just starting?
26889what do I care?
26889you there!--where are you going?"
12556Above the water- gate?
12556And I-- well, I once had a practice at home; and got into a row over a woman; and when the row was through, well, where was the practice? 12556 And buried themselves in the slime?"
12556And if not?
12556And if you please, why should n''t it be? 12556 And she''s''My Lady''now, if she only knew?"
12556And smash up the telegraph instruments afterward, so that it could not be contradicted till it was well under way?
12556And they are quite unworthy of protection?
12556And we may be blown up against the sky as a thin kind of rain any minute? 12556 And what about the rifles, sir?"
12556And what would be the result of that, do you think?
12556And where''s that?
12556And who pays the piper? 12556 And why not?
12556And you remember what you told me on that steamboat? 12556 And you''d still marry this woman if she had another husband living?"
12556And you''re thinking she''d be a nice plum if we could pluck her in anywhere?
12556And-- er-- previous employment? 12556 Beg pardon, sir?"
12556Beg pardon,said Kettle,"he takes yours, does he?
12556But about the missionary brute?
12556But do you want,said the lady,"no present?"
12556But how can we move? 12556 But how did you guess, man, how did you know where we were bound?"
12556But how? 12556 But is it true what this gentleman''s been telling me?"
12556But then you speak languages?
12556But what are you two doing down there?
12556But you know what they are?
12556But, tell me, what did the little chap go overboard for?
12556Captain Kettle,said the sulky Mate,"that was in the Congo Pilot Service?"
12556Come, what is it now, Captain?
12556Did n''t you hear the report they''ve just sung off from the boats? 12556 Did you know that we came here to stir up a war between our folks at home and the Transvaal?"
12556Did you threaten to get him into trouble over it? 12556 Do all your crowd understand the language?"
12556Do much business in your particular line?
12556Do n''t I tell you, Captain, I''m on my own hook? 12556 Do you know Captain Tazzuchi?"
12556Do you know you''re asking me to ruin myself?
12556Do you mean to say we can retake her? 12556 Do you say,"she demanded,"you onwilling marry me?"
12556Do you say,the Lady Emir repeated,"you onwilling marry me?"
12556Does Mr. Hamilton know you?
12556Does he, indeed? 12556 Does this Mr.--"Kettle referred to the passenger list--"Hamilton''s the rogue''s name, is n''t it?"
12556Does this thief Cranze?
12556Done what?
12556Drunk as usual, are you? 12556 Dunkhot?
12556Fat, is she?
12556Fine full- rigger, has n''t she been? 12556 For why?"
12556Fuddled again, are you? 12556 Funny, was n''t it?"
12556Good Heavens, Skipper, what are you talking about? 12556 Good Lord, man, why?
12556Good old smell,said Nilssen,"is n''t it?
12556Great heavens,he thought,"was the mate dead?"
12556H''m,said the mate thoughtfully;"but will Wenlock be as civil and limp next time you call, sir?"
12556Has n''t that missionary brute sent for it yet?
12556Have I ever been anything else all my life?
12556Have n''t you got a better?
12556Have you been getting their backs up, then?
12556Have you heard anything then?
12556Have you searched the ship?
12556Him? 12556 How did you get hold of it?"
12556How do they spell the name? 12556 How do you mean, sir?"
12556How do you think those crafty imps have managed it?
12556How long would I be before I had that joker in irons?
12556How shall we get off again?
12556How''s it managed?
12556How''s that, umpire?
12556How?
12556Howdy?
12556Hullo, have n''t they told you?
12556Hullo, what''s up now? 12556 Hullo,"he said,"postman, were you; not conjuror?
12556Hullo,said Sheriff,"what''s that mean?
12556Hullo,said he,"those two niggers gone already?
12556Hullo?
12556I see your way of looking at it: the whole crowd of stock operators are a gang of thieves that no decent man would care to touch?
12556I suppose the people at home think you carry the Glad Tidings only?
12556I suppose you know something about it? 12556 I wonder what spiflicating is?"
12556If we are spilt getting ashore,said White,"how do you say we''ll get off again?"
12556Is it?
12556Is she the head chief''s favorite wife, then?
12556Look here, you want that old sinner Nilssen cured?
12556Look here,he said to Tazzuchi one morning,"what price those gentry ashore having found the wreck already?
12556Me no savvy?
12556Now,he said,"where''s Rad?
12556Now,he said,"you seen my_ ju- ju?_ You savvy him too- big_ ju- ju_?
12556Now,he said,"you seen my_ ju- ju?_ You savvy him too- big_ ju- ju_?
12556Oh, am I?

12556Oh, you are his Worship, are you?
12556Old Cappie Nilssen? 12556 Pah, my good man, what does that matter to you?
12556Run the old shop into a war, would you?
12556Set up as a trader, that is?
12556Shall I be getting derricks rigged and the hatch covers off?

12556She was coming home from East Indian ports, was n''t she, and got on fire somewhere off Cape Guardafui? 12556 Should I know your name, sir?"
12556Skirt or photographing?
12556So there is really a woman of that kind there, is there? 12556 So you gluttonous, careless brutes have set fire to her, have you?
12556Supposing they were rifles, what than?
12556Suspect any one?
12556That chap insured; that chap make a will in my favor? 12556 That foul- looking wooden god with the looking- glass eyes?"
12556That you, Murray? 12556 The man that consigned all that parcel of figs for London?"
12556Then we are out of the wood now?
12556There''s something that tickles you, sir?
12556There, sir,said Kettle_ sotto voce_ to Dayton- Philipps,"you see the marvellousness of it?
12556Think I''m going to back down for a tribe of nasty, stinking, man- eating niggers? 12556 Think so?"
12556Trading missionary, is he? 12556 Ugh,"said Kettle,"dog stew, is it?
12556Up country village, eh? 12556 Want a pull into Cardiff or Newport?"
12556We shall have these fellows rebelling next,said the Commandant,"if you push them too hard; and if they join the rest, where shall we be?"
12556Well, Capt''n, now, about this berth? 12556 Well, pilot, what''s the news?"
12556Well, sir?
12556Well,said Kettle,"have they made you a colonel yet, or are they only going to give you the Congo medal?"
12556Well,said Kettle,"what was the message?"
12556Well?
12556Well?
12556Well?
12556Well?
12556Well?
12556Well?
12556Well?
12556Well?'' 12556 What are you driving at?"
12556What did you want it for? 12556 What do you mean?"
12556What does he want to go ashore for at a one- eyed hole like this? 12556 What for?"
12556What other object should white men have up- country in Africa?
12556What rifles? 12556 What ship was it?
12556What were you run in for?
12556What''d be the good of that? 12556 What''s in it?"
12556What''s the use?
12556What''s tripped him?
12556What, my being keen about the money?
12556What, you''ll import a missionary?
12556Which is another way of saying you want me to risk my skin to get you your prescription?
12556Who pays for the cargo Captain Kuttle threw overboard?
12556Why did n''t you say so before? 12556 Why on earth do you two keep on nagging?
12556Why, just went and tackled the passenger- boy and dashed him a case of gin; and when he sobered up again, where was the ju- ju? 12556 Why?"
12556Will they?
12556Will you give Rad dem rifles, you low white fellow?
12556Yes?
12556You are on the Stock Exchange yourself, sir?
12556You deny all knowledge of how he got overboard?
12556You think he''ll get a crew, then, sir, and not our deckhands?
12556You were with Kevendales?
12556You''ve been luckier?
12556You? 12556 Your leg ought to be cut off?"
12556Yucatan,said Cranze,"that''s the ruined cities shop, is n''t it?"
12556_ And what guarantee have I that the firm will pocket even that pittance? 12556 A voice, muffled and foggy, as though it came from a long distance, said in surprise:Why, Captain, have they got you here, too?"
12556Am I asked to be Emir in your country?"
12556Am I to break up the whole of this ship''s company by myself?"
12556And did they bring you straight along here?"
12556And f''why is it, Capt''n?
12556And so with a gulp he said instead:"You''re sure it''s deliberate poisoning?"
12556And that was worth?
12556And then where would be his sighed- for salvage?
12556And who might you be, anyway?"
12556And why?
12556Anyway, what can we do?
12556Are n''t you under promise to get £ 50 from me the moment I''m safely married?
12556Are you a competent medicated practitioner?"
12556Are you competent medicated practitioner?"
12556Are you going to be all night with that bit of stuff?"
12556Are you going to take it?"
12556Are you losing''em much?"
12556Are you sure they were_ pukka_ dead when you put them over the side?"
12556Are you worth your salt?
12556But ca n''t you arrange it by your friend the ambassador?"
12556But had n''t we better ask the Mate for his cargo- book first, so as to make sure?"
12556But it don''matter to you pilot, does it?
12556But perhaps I''m making a mistake?
12556But three?
12556But what could one do?
12556But what guarantee had he that this robbery was not planned to draw plunder from the outside public as well?
12556But what of that?
12556But will the other relatives of the young lady, those that are employing you, I mean, agree to that?"
12556But would they get what I want out of the witch- doctor?
12556But, my good sir, do n''t you see that if you speak out like that, you''ll probably scare the beggar off his game altogether?"
12556By James, do you think you can speak to me as if I was a common railway director?
12556Can you give me the right physic to pull Captain Nilssen round?"
12556Can you handle a drill or a monkey wrench, yourself?"
12556Come now, have you thought out what we can do with the steamer after we''ve finished our job here?"
12556Come, now, where''s the mate?"
12556Commandant Balliot, have you any mechanics amongst your lot?"
12556Cuttle?"
12556Did he bring off the message, sir?"
12556Did none of you ever wash?"
12556Did you ever dabble in stocks?"
12556Did you know it was valuable then?"
12556Did you never see a boat iced up before?
12556Do you know whose house this is?"
12556Do you think my ship''s a blessed detective novel that''s to be run just for your amusement?"
12556Do you want any rousing along?"
12556Do you want proof?"
12556Doc, are you handy with tools?"
12556Got''em all?"
12556Got''em?"
12556Great Scot, Captain Kettle, ca n''t you tell a Dago yet for sure?
12556Guess you''ll know the crowd I mean?"
12556Had good fishing?"
12556Had n''t you better stay?
12556Hamilton?"
12556Have a cocktail?"
12556Have n''t I told you that I''ve thought the whole thing thoroughly over already, and I''m not inclined to stick at trifles?
12556Have they been at you about those rifles, sir?"
12556Have you been messing round with some girl?"
12556Have you forgotten all your''mainsail haul''and the square- rig gymnastics?"
12556Have you had enough?"
12556Have you heard about the mate?"
12556Have you seen visions or something?"
12556He saw Tazzuchi on the deck and accosted him with a vigorous handshake, and a"Hullo, Fizz- hookey, old man, how goes it?
12556He shouted up the companion way--"On top there, quartermaster?"
12556He shrugged his shoulders, and said"Sabbey?"
12556He''d his money to his credit anyway-- and what''s money compared with poetry?"
12556Here, who was in the engine room?"
12556How about those three we''ve got on board?
12556How did you get hold of it?"
12556How did you guess it was me?"
12556How do I know that I shall see even the money outpaid again, let alone reasonable interest?
12556How had we better start to find the girl?"
12556How the mischief did you get here, anyway?"
12556I guess you have n''t come just in search of health?"
12556I mean where will the money for your profit come from?"
12556I say, Skipper, ca n''t you come to some agreement with Rad over those blessed rifles?
12556I suppose you go straight home by mail from Aden here?"
12556I wonder if that yellow- faced Belgian doctor will live to give us_ pratique_?"
12556I wonder if you call yourselves white men to let a crowd of niggers clear you out of your ship like that?"
12556I wonder if you think you''re going to jam a knife into me by way of making things snug and safe?"
12556If ever you''ve been in a police court, you''ll always find the magistrate ask,''Who began this trouble?''
12556If you start knocking about this ship''s company they''ll complain ashore, and then where''ll you be?
12556Is a Mohammedan marriage made here binding for an Englishman?"
12556Is he overboard?"
12556Is it for a sort of introductory present?"
12556Is n''t it the finest thing in the world for her?"
12556Is your prisoner tall?"
12556Kady, are you?
12556Kettle?"
12556Look out of that window; it''s a bit glary with the sun full on, but do you see those rows of stakes the nets are made fast on?
12556My good Skipper, you''re a handy man, I know, but what the blazes do you know about amputation?"
12556Not nervous about yourself, eh?"
12556Now I should have thought there was something about those Everglades that would have appealed to you, Skipper?"
12556Now, Captain, are you going to take my check for that preliminary £ 20?"
12556Now, what are you going to do next?
12556Or am I to clear both ends in this boat by myself?"
12556Or perhaps, to judge from that cauliflower nose of yours, you''re something that''s escaped out of a freak museum?
12556Perhaps you''re a Dutchman or a Dago that''s learnt the language?
12556Remember the remains of those two poor sacrificed wretches we found when we got here?"
12556Run England in for a bloody war, would you, just for some filthy money?
12556Sabby?"
12556Savvy that belaying- pin I got in my fist?
12556Savvy that?"
12556Say, though, you have n''t told me what you''re up here for yet?
12556Second Mate?"
12556See what I mean?"
12556See?"
12556Should the week''s hero pay the bill himself out of his miserable savings?
12556Steward-- where''s a steward?
12556That''s the loneliest place where the cable goes ashore all up and down the coast, and it is n''t British, and what more could you want?"
12556The gin and the guns are left clean out of the tale; and will Boston please send out some more subscriptions, one- time?
12556The head- man noticed his action, and put a smiling question:"You no like dem climb- climb chop?
12556Then you are employed by his lordship, sir?"
12556There was a sound of distant coughing, and then the misty question:"What are you working at?"
12556Thing like that makes you feel homey, does n''t it, sir?"
12556This sort of press- gang work is n''t quite approved of nowadays, is it, Skipper?"
12556Tooth him plenty sore?"
12556Trying to guess where you met it before, eh?
12556Used to be fireman on P. and O. I want arsk you--""Is this the Arabian Nights?
12556Was the man going mad?
12556We''re heading for it, eh?"
12556What about crushed marigolds, eh?"
12556What are you but a rebel?
12556What did he think I should be doing whilst one of my mates was scoffing cargo under my blessed nose?"
12556What did you lose your temper for like this?
12556What do you make her out for?"
12556What do you want, anyway?"
12556What have they collared you for?
12556What have you to do with saints and their days?"
12556What might you be up here for?"
12556What price?"
12556What should I know about the fellow?
12556What was the man that went overboard like?"
12556What''s England ever done for you?"
12556What''s he done?"
12556What''s he want to go for?"
12556Where are you off to now?"
12556Where have you been all your days?"
12556Where''s the swizzle- stick?
12556Who wants to poison you?"
12556Who''d have thought of seeing you here?
12556Why ca n''t they let me alone?
12556Why in the name of mischief should I want to meddle with the poor beggar?
12556Will you chip in and bear a hand?
12556Will you come off in the boat with me, Captain, and hand my lifeline?"
12556Would he have any foolish English sentiment against slavery, and make a fuss?
12556Would it be indiscreet to bring one sweltering day in Bahia to your memory, where you made play with a German( or was he a Scandinavian?)
12556Yer age, Capt''n?"
12556Yes, well?"
12556You fit?"
12556You have n''t a photo about you by any chance?
12556You have n''t shifted them down below, I suppose?"
12556You hear?
12556You know the channel?"
12556You know?"
12556You remember Rad el Moussa?"
12556You remember the wreck of the_ Rangoon_?"
12556You see three trees growing on that island bang ahead?
12556You want any more of it?
12556You wish cargo?"
12556You''ll get married, I suppose, on the strength of the promotion?
12556You''ll have my passage money?"
12556You''ll remember the orders I''ve given you?
12556You''ve seen that big ju- ju in my room?"
12556and a hundredweight drum of good white lead?
12556are you Captain Kettle that piled up the old_ Atrocity_ on that iceberg?
12556do they suppose I''ve got no pride?
12556do you hear me?
12556grunted the Mate,"Robinson''s a sea lawyer, is he?
12556he asked,"or did you just guess?"
12556it''s recruits for the State Army you''re bringing, is it?"
12556said Kettle impatiently;"if he does n''t get back the wooden god, let''s hear what the game is next?"
12556said Kettle,"who''s going to turn me out of Lagos; tell me that, sir?"
12556that''s fine to think about, old man, is n''t it?
12556you were looking on, were you?"
39061''Pon my soul, I''d forgotten my own birthday, and I have n''t the ghost of a notion what the day of the month is; have you, Barney?
39061A boy, did you say, Barney? 39061 A fluke, was it?
39061A machine gun?
39061A steamer, eh?
39061A wicked uncle, eh?
39061All well?
39061And I suppose you''ve alarmed the camp?
39061And Lokolobolo?
39061And Makoko?
39061And are there pigmies in that forest-- little men, you know?
39061And are your parents still chained to the tree?
39061And did the cratur''give ye the slip, then?
39061And go at them with a rush, uncle?
39061And is she buried under them?
39061And is that the way, sorr, they make the giants at the pantomime?
39061And they have been killed-- not dying by the sleeping sickness?
39061And what do you make of this?
39061And what sort of feeling is now consuming ye, sorr?
39061And what then, sorr?
39061And what''ll ye be afther doing yourself, sorr?
39061And where''s the pipe, sorr? 39061 And wo n''t it be aisy, sorr?
39061And you did not get a pain?
39061And you have not been attacked since?
39061Another alarm, eh?
39061Anything happened?
39061Are we on the right road?
39061Are you going?
39061Are you sure none of the other men know enough English to serve my turn?
39061Arrah thin, ye spalpeen, where''s Samba?
39061Bandoka is sure the white officers are not coming through the forest?
39061Bedad, sorr, is n''t it me that knows ye''d niver do it? 39061 Bedad, why should n''t we have a little rifle practice at''em, sorr?
39061Begorra, I would, sorr; do they deserve any betther? 39061 But Samba, uncle?"
39061But how came he here?
39061But how could you tell that in the dark?
39061But we have seen nothing of Samba; where is he?
39061But what if I never come back, Barney?
39061But what of their courts, Uncle? 39061 But what''ll we do wid the overflow, sorr?
39061But where''s the gold, uncle?
39061But who did it? 39061 Can not we get the people out uv the scoundhrel''s clutches widout fighting, sorr?
39061Can they reach Ilola to- day, coming through the forest?
39061Could n''t we do something to hould the attention uv those villains at the outpost while Samba and the chief are doing their job?
39061Could n''t we leave all the licking to him, uncle?
39061D''you see what has happened? 39061 D''you think we could do it, Barney?
39061Dead, monsieur?
39061Did I?
39061Do n''t you ever have a fit of the dumps, Barney? 39061 Do you know anything of Samba, the son of Mboyo and nephew of Boloko, one of your master''s men?"
39061Do you think it was a move of that Belgian fellow, uncle?
39061Eh? 39061 Faith,''tis Irishmen that speak the best English,"returned Barney;"did I not hear them wid me very own ears in the house uv Parlimint?"
39061Go on the stump like Gladstone?
39061Has he killed many people?
39061Have you called him?
39061He dies, O Lokolobolo?
39061He will not go yet to the Great Spirit, O Lokolobolo?
39061Hi, now, Nando, what are you about?
39061How are you now, Samba?
39061How can that be? 39061 How did they come?"
39061How did you find your way back in the dark?
39061How far now?
39061How many are the villains?
39061How many fighting men are left to escort the canoes?
39061How old is he, Nando?
39061How will you do it?
39061How''s that?
39061I suppose you are going to take us there? 39061 I suppose you are very tired now, Samba?"
39061I suppose you told him our men are not armed?
39061I suppose you''ll just say''Go and be hanged''in answer to that?
39061If he is so very sick, how did he come from the river into the forest?
39061Is it far, Lofundo?
39061Is it quite clear?
39061Is it the fifteenth Psalm? 39061 Is that Ilombekabasi?"
39061Is that the fashion uv keeping gyard?
39061Is the boy getting better?
39061It is the hand of Boloko, who whipped us and killed us, who can say how many? 39061 Just in revenge for not getting the baumba?"
39061Lepoko speaks English, does he?
39061Me fink dis plenty bad; what for man lib for hide in tree and look at Nando? 39061 Might it not be to prevent reinforcements from reaching us, sorr?"
39061Mr. Elbel? 39061 Now I wonder if he could tell us all about it?"
39061Now what are we to do with him?
39061Now, Lepoko,he said, putting himself between the chiefs and sitting on the buffalo''s head,"what is all this about?"
39061O kend''o?
39061Only what could he do, if he came?
39061Perhaps he was fishing?
39061Samba? 39061 Say, was n''t it Macaulay who said he''d write a nation''s history from its ballads?
39061Send him to Oxford?
39061Shall we admit Makole?
39061Shall we go back and send a party to cut him up?
39061Shall we let him go, Barney?
39061Spoiling for a fight, eh? 39061 Suppose the talk of gold turns out to be wind, uncle?"
39061That is the truth, Ifumi?
39061That''s the scout of Massa Barney''s who was captured, is n''t it?
39061The dog has gone too, eh? 39061 The fire is burning out; what does it matter if it burns a little more quickly?
39061The whipping is to be to- morrow? 39061 Then why not take the offensive, uncle?"
39061They taught you history at Rugby, did they? 39061 Three men will certainly be killed; are not the scouts Makoko, Lianza, and Lingombela, three of the best marksmen in Ilombekabasi?
39061Tow him, eh? 39061 True; how did you get away, Samba?"
39061Very good, sorr,said Barney;"but what''ll become uv Ilola?
39061Well, and what is it wid ye thin?
39061Well, do n''t you think that, now our numbers are reduced, it would be as well to move our camp nearer to Imbono''s village? 39061 Well, what are the lines?"
39061Well, what are you driving at, Barney?
39061Well, what is it?
39061Well, what''s become of them, then? 39061 Well, who are you, and what do you want?"
39061Well?
39061Were many of your people killed?
39061What are they singing, Lepoko?
39061What can you do, my boy?
39061What d''you mean?
39061What did I say at all at all?
39061What did he mean by that?
39061What do they say now, Lepoko?
39061What do you make of this?
39061What do you mean-- a bit of her?
39061What do you mean? 39061 What do you say at all?"
39061What do you say, uncle? 39061 What do you think of this, Barney?
39061What does that matter? 39061 What have you been doing?"
39061What have you got in those bundles?
39061What is it, uncle?
39061What is this, Makole?
39061What might that be, sorr?
39061What on earth for?
39061What was the firing?
39061What would be the good uv doing anything else, sorr? 39061 What would be the good uv it, sorr?
39061What would he be doing that for, sorr? 39061 What would ye have any truck wid Elbel''s scoundhrels for?"
39061What''s that?
39061What''s the matter with you, man?
39061What''s the matter, Nando?
39061What''s the meaning of it, I wonder?
39061What''s this? 39061 What''s to be done, my boy?"
39061What?
39061Where are they?
39061Where are they?
39061Where are you going?
39061Where is Samba then?
39061Where is he?
39061Where''s that villain Nando?
39061Which one?
39061Who are you?
39061Who is he?
39061Who is he?
39061Who on earth''s Pat?
39061Who was the chief of these bad men?
39061Why did he send you? 39061 Why do you say that?"
39061Why do you wish to leave Limpoko?
39061Why does he smile?
39061Why not say Don Quixote and Sancho Panza, uncle?
39061Why not, sir? 39061 Why, sorr, why not drop down some uv them boulders we keep for repairing the wall?
39061Why? 39061 Why?"
39061Will you tell?
39061Would it be indiscreet to ask your reasons?
39061Would you be meaning to go for them, sorr?
39061You are the servants of Mutela?
39061You did not provoke Bomolo?
39061You have another white man with you now, besides Elobela?
39061You leave to- morrow?
39061You mean that I''m deserting my ally, eh?
39061You mean that the enemy might try to divert the stream if they attacked our camp?
39061You mean?
39061You refuse me, Ngondisi?
39061You see what they are at, Barney?
39061You think so, monsieur?
39061You told me that none of the men speak English but yourself,said Mr. Martindale;"is that true?"
39061You zink so? 39061 _ Reductio ad absurdum_, uncle?"
39061''An''what would ye be afther, Mike?''
39061''An''who is it this time but that same Patsy?''
39061''Bedad,''says he,''what will have come to Biddy at all?''
39061''Catch him?''
39061''Catch what?''
39061''He that walketh uprightly----''I can not remember, Jack.--Is that boy Samba better?
39061''Is n''t it meself that''s just got a penny for that same news?''
39061''Ku?
39061''What is it ye''d be maning?''
39061--don''t ye hear him, sorr?--''what in the world will I want wid all these disgraceful lookin''objects?
39061--here Barney helped out his meaning with pantomime--"nor dream all that terrible wild stuff you have just been telling us?"
39061... are your practices legal, Mr. Elbel?
39061A directorate-- a few directorates-- a snug place at Court-- who knows?
39061And Barnio!--was it not Barnio who had led them to the stockade with that wild war- cry of his?
39061And bedad, if he''d had good things to say uv the State officers, would n''t he have said''em?
39061And besides, did he not writhe and groan with every blow?
39061And did he not try to murder ye before the fight began?
39061And how will ye go to work wid the bogie, sorr?"
39061And is n''t it all his deeds that prove it, with his whips and his forest guards-- blagyards I call''em-- and all?
39061And the white man, the Son of Heaven, wanted_ botofé_; it had some value for him?
39061And the white men of Bula Matadi-- did not they sometimes seize black boys, and make them soldiers or serfs?
39061And what could he say to convince Imbono that he was no friend of the white men who authorized or permitted such things?
39061And what would his uncle say to it?
39061And what''s this blood brother business anyway?
39061And who are you?"
39061And who is this?
39061Any other men in the hut?"
39061Are not these things happening every day?
39061Are you absolutely inhuman?
39061Arlington?"
39061As for right, what right has the Inglesa to interfere?
39061As soon as they came in sight the leader of Jack''s escort cried--"O etswa?
39061Barney, Barney, will you never come?
39061Bimeby man come down like snake, creep, creep,''long,''long; me go too, what for?
39061But Samba''s the ould wan himself at schaming; will I fetch him?"
39061But are we near Banonga, Nando?"
39061But are ye sure Imbono would be willing to have us for close neighbours?"
39061But the young fellow was certainly very polite; why not humour him by letting him talk?
39061But they knew Lokolobolo; had he not time and again brought Elobela''s schemes to nought?
39061But what can we do, O Lokolobolo?
39061But what do you think of the idea?"
39061But what does it all mean, anyway?"
39061But what on earth did the fellow want with the boy?"
39061But what thin?
39061But what was this animal they had brought with them?
39061But what was this?
39061But what will you be after doing at all, sorr?"
39061But where are the huts?"
39061But where are the people?"
39061But who are the two white men wid him, thin?
39061But who is in the litter?"
39061But why did ye not bring it, me darlint?"
39061But you talk of fighting Elbel; have you thought of the risk?"
39061But''tis the morning for Lingombela to go to the village for eggs; could he not find out what you wish to know?"
39061Can you lend me an interpreter?"
39061Can you stomach native food?
39061Could he get down the gully side, I wonder?"
39061Could he have done otherwise than he had done?
39061Could he trust Barney to continue his work if he should be removed?
39061Could he venture to build a fire?
39061Could his sudden departure from the village, Jack wondered, have been his first move in this direction?
39061Could n''t we persuade Boloko to keep his men in order-- bribe him, perhaps?"
39061Could n''t we wait an hour or two and see if he appears?"
39061Could they pick it up again-- trace him to the tree and follow him up?
39061Could this be Bula Matadi, Samba wondered, the white man whom his grandfather, the chief Mirambo, had seen long ago at Wanganga?
39061Could we rush the camp before the main body could be brought to its relief?"
39061D''you know you''ve thrown away a nugget worth I do n''t know how many dollars?"
39061Dat is de English vay-- de boxe, hein?"
39061Did not Samba say that Lokolobolo gave him his last bottle of devil water?"
39061Did the forest contain_ botofé_?
39061Did they not say the Great White Chief loved us and wished to do us good?
39061Did ye, or did ye not, eat a big supper uv anything at all last night?"
39061Did you ever see such a big man?
39061Did you explain that we do n''t belong to the Great White Chief, Nando?"
39061Do n''t the streets uv London prove it whin the County Council has been taking up the drains?"
39061Do n''t you think, Barney, a lighted candle behind the paper would make a very decent sort of bogie?"
39061Do the spalpeens think they''ll catch us napping, begore?"
39061Do ye think Barney O''Dowd would have hung out a white rag and surrindered?
39061Do you blame me now, sir?"
39061Do you know what I would do in your place, sir?
39061Do you remember I said at Banonga that I was n''t a philanthropist and was n''t set on starting a crusade?
39061Do you think anything has happened to him?
39061Does n''t it seem to you odd that Uncle says nothing about the rubber question?
39061Eh?
39061Elbel?"
39061Elbel?"
39061Even Samba, forest- bred, had barely survived the perils of a solitary journey: how could a white man expect to fare so well?
39061Even if he escaped the former, what chance was there of success?
39061For how many maimings and murders had this man been responsible?
39061For why are the niggers here not lazy, sorr?
39061Getting a little appetite, eh?
39061Had Elbel at last fathomed the secret of his water supply?
39061Had Providence, moving in mysterious ways, arranged all this-- that one should suffer for the sake of many?
39061Had Samba escaped the clutches of his enemy and got back to the fort?
39061Had Samba escaped?
39061Had he fallen into the enemy''s hands?
39061Had he to contend with a regular officer of the State as well as an official of the Concession?
39061Had his movement been detected?
39061Had his ruse succeeded?
39061Had news of the storming of the camp been carried, he wondered, by fugitives to the flotilla?
39061Had not he, Mirambo, seen Bula Matadi, the friend of the black man?
39061Had not many of them tried in vain to discover the secret which Samba would be forced to betray?
39061Had not the Arabs of the Soudan shown this?
39061Had the enemy taken advantage of the sudden flood to organize an attack in force?
39061Had the white men no fathers?
39061Has Mutela arrived?"
39061Has he not made big puddle in massa''s canoe?
39061Have you any food about you, Nando?"
39061He had never heard Pat whine; the dog barked at everything; why had he changed his manner of speech?
39061Here, Nando, are you sure of this?"
39061Him say how massa get him?"
39061How can I rush?
39061How can he help knowing of it?
39061How can we get him into the fort?
39061How can we praise him-- Lokolobolo?
39061How could the negro distinguish?
39061How could they do it?
39061How does it go on?
39061How is the rubber to be paid for?"
39061How long must he remain helpless here, unable to lift a hand in defence of the oppressed?
39061How many huts did it contain?
39061How supply the strangers too?
39061How would he find his uncle?
39061I do n''t want Uncle to fall into Elbel''s hands, but how can I stop it?"
39061I have learn dat your men have rifles; I see dem myself; dey even hold deir rifles at de salute, dey have military training, hein?
39061I shall certainly go; the question is, shall I go armed?"
39061I think I have the pleasure of addressing Monsieur Elbel?"
39061I''ve too little flesh on me bones now; what would I be if I grizzled?"
39061If he could capture the stores, would he not have the main body at his mercy?
39061If that happened, Samba wondered, would he be able to disengage himself from the tangle of branches and swim clear?
39061If the canoe did not meet with disaster from without, why not from within?
39061Ilombekabasi?
39061Is it fire?
39061Is it legal to incite a night attack on peaceable travellers?"
39061Is it legal to shoot and maim the natives as you have been doing for a hundred miles and more along the river?
39061Is it water?
39061Is n''t the cause of the negroes every bit as good as the cause of the Bulgarians or Macedonians or Armenians?
39061Is there any such freedom?
39061It was very foolish, he thought; they were both such good fellows: it was quite clear that they ought to be friends; but what was a dog to do?
39061Jack, are you there?"
39061Lepoko fink bofe make two holes-- how can do uvver way?"
39061Lokolobolo had brought water into their camp; but who had made water run in a swift river where no river had ever been before?
39061May I make you a proposal?
39061Monsieur Elbel summoned us----""Where is Monsieur Elbel, monsieur?"
39061Mr. Arlington, you are no longer a member of Parliament, I believe?"
39061Mr. Martindale-- I zink dat is de name-- have found de gold he sought?"
39061Muss see; s''pose he go fetch bad man and shoot massa?
39061Nando go to Boma with old massa; what den?
39061Nando, when shall we get to this Banonga we''ve heard so much about?"
39061Nando, where''s Samba?"
39061Nando?"
39061No father and mother!--Barnard said there was gold; why ca n''t he find it?--No, that''s not a nugget, that''s---- Only a dog, eh?
39061No mercy had been shown to them: why should they show mercy?
39061Now Mr. Nando, would you plase tell us if you ate a big supper uv maniac last night?"
39061Now, Jack, ready?
39061Of what good are knives against guns?
39061On the way the shouts of the paddlers became more coherent; what was this they were saying?
39061Only a few escaped-- they wander in the forest, who knows where?
39061Only wan thing, sorr; ye would not have any inshuperable objection to Pat, sorr?"
39061Or perhaps his eyes had deceived him?
39061Or say, Jack, d''you think we are being watched?"
39061Or would they be so much alarmed that nothing but flight would occur to them?
39061Ought he in any case to leave the fort?
39061Ought he to think of it?
39061Rubber and parrots; what next, I wonder?
39061Samba hab got Nando him knife: what for Nando no hab nuffin at all?"
39061Savvy?"
39061See?"
39061Shall I fish for that nugget?"
39061Shall we go and get some hippo meat?
39061Shall we join hands in this?
39061She gave me a screech and went black in the face, an''sure''twas for the same fun I''m here this blessed minute?''
39061Should he let them loose, to work their will upon their oppressors?
39061Should he risk all, spring overboard, and swim for the bank?
39061Should he take him?
39061So it had happened to other villages: how could he hope that Banonga would be spared?
39061So that when Barney met him as he re- entered the fort, and asked eagerly,"Well, sorr, and did the patient swallow the pill?"
39061Something must be done; yet what?
39061Suppose we shot Elbel?
39061Supposing he failed, what would happen to the hundreds of people who depended on him?
39061Surely, surely, he was not in danger-- he would not die?
39061The huts will not hold half of us; and who are you?"
39061The intruder was alone, and a negro; Why not try to capture him?
39061The other continued--"Well, monsieur, what is the position?
39061The sentries are arranged for the night, eh?"
39061Then a thought occurred to him: Why wait upon chance?
39061There are no cannibals in these days-- eh, Jack?"
39061There''s Elbel himself, do you see?
39061These people were strangers; why should they have better habitations and stronger defences than they themselves?
39061This boat''s rather low down now, but d''you think we could make a bump?"
39061Vat good is de American or de English in de Congo Free State?
39061Ve must not be indiscreet, hein?
39061Was he hurt, he wondered?
39061Was he very ill?
39061Was it a wild beast, he wondered, prowling for food?
39061Was it because Samba was going away?
39061Was it he, Lieutenant Jennaert, who was being called upon to surrender?
39061Was it possible that the crocodile, though wounded, was still following?
39061Was it possible to cut off the main body from its stores?
39061Was not his place at the fort, at Ilombekabasi, with Barney and Imbono and Mboyo, the people for and with whom he had already toiled and fought?
39061Was the fort, indeed, still there?
39061Was there much forest about it?
39061Was there not enough of it and to spare in the forest?
39061Was this the Captain Van Vorst, he wondered, who, Elbel had told him, was coming up the river?
39061Was this the end of the bright young life, so full of promise?
39061Was this villain to remain unpunished?
39061Was this, apparently his only opportunity, to be lost?
39061We''ll aim at the nearest, as you say; are you ready?"
39061Well, it does n''t raise my opinion of Mr. Elbel; you know a man by the company he keeps, eh?"
39061Well, that''s settled, eh?
39061Well, what does it mean when they return?
39061Were not the drumsticks in his village made of_ botofé_?
39061Were these atrocities going on throughout the Congo Free State?
39061Were they indeed a part of the system of government?
39061What about your bet, eh, Jack?"
39061What about your wound?"
39061What am I to do with the boy, supposing he gets better?
39061What can he do?"
39061What can we do for him, Barney?"
39061What can we do with him?
39061What can we do with him?"
39061What can we do?
39061What cared they if several of their number fell before the tyrants''rifles?
39061What chance was there of fulfilling his uncle''s wishes there?
39061What could have happened?
39061What could he do?
39061What could it be?
39061What d''ye think that little varmint has done now?"
39061What de good of anyfink?
39061What did he try to write?"
39061What did they see?
39061What do you say, Dathan?
39061What do you suggest?"
39061What do you think of this?
39061What do you think, Jack?"
39061What does he want now?"
39061What does the white man mean by talking to us?
39061What else could have delayed him?
39061What else is there inflammable?"
39061What for black boy go walk alone?
39061What for two speak Inglesa one time?
39061What for?
39061What for?
39061What for?
39061What for?
39061What for?
39061What for?
39061What had become of the boy?
39061What had startled them?
39061What has happened?
39061What has he to gain by routing the little band behind?
39061What hope was there of his parents''rescue now?
39061What if the man''s assurances were false, and there had never been any intention of seeking his father?
39061What is he doing here?"
39061What is it about wicked doers?
39061What is that?
39061What is the good of you?
39061What of the natives who for so many months had looked to him for guidance and leadership?
39061What on earth can we do?
39061What other course was open to him?
39061What was Barney doing?
39061What was Barney doing?
39061What was he doing?
39061What was it called?
39061What was this?
39061What were his chances?
39061What would be its effect on the enemy?
39061What would be the fate of the poor people committed to his charge?
39061What would happen to them?
39061What would happen to uncle''s mining venture?
39061What would have happened if ye had got knocked on the head in that sortie uv yours?
39061What would he do when morning came and yet the absent had not returned?
39061What would they do, asked Jack, when the enemy came back?
39061What''ll we do to get ready for him, sorr?"
39061What''s that?
39061What''s that?"
39061What''s the good of firing when you ca n''t take aim?
39061What''s the meaning of it?
39061What''s this?
39061Where does Leopold get his dollars from?
39061Where indeed?
39061Where is he now, Sad Elobela?
39061Where is your fire now?
39061Where was his village?
39061Where was that bright twinkling eye that looked so shrewdly out from beneath a shaggy brow?
39061Where would the white man''s authority be if this kind of thing were permitted?
39061Where''s Nando?"
39061Who are you?"
39061Who had fired that shot which had so shaken Monsieur Elbel''s hand?
39061Who is Lokolobolo?"
39061Who pays for the estates he is buying, the palace he is building, the fine public works he is presenting to Belgium?
39061Who saved Imbono?
39061Who so hospitable as the men of Banonga?
39061Who was its chief?
39061Whom do we praise?
39061Why did not his uncle return?
39061Why do we laugh?
39061Why do we laugh?
39061Why do we sing?
39061Why do we sing?
39061Why not make his own opportunity?
39061Why not turn their knowledge to good account?
39061Why not use it as a raft to carry him on his way?
39061Why not?
39061Why on earth could not he let Nando come and do the translating?"
39061Why should he go to Boma?
39061Why should not he do the same?
39061Why should we stay to be killed like that?
39061Why was I such a fool?
39061Why was he delaying?
39061Why was the world so sad to- day?
39061Why were they permitted to remain in Imbono''s country at all?
39061Why, me hab got wife in Ilombekabasi; what for leabe wife?
39061Why, sorr, whin ye knocked him down the other day, why did n''t he stand up fair and square and have it out wid ye?
39061Why?
39061Will I niver get a chance at all?"
39061Will I send Lepoko over wid the invitation the morn''s morn, sorr?"
39061Will Lokolobolo be able to beat them too?"
39061Will you wear it yourself?"
39061Wo n''t Indian clubs do?
39061Would Barney be strong enough to hold out against them?
39061Would Barney never come?
39061Would he take their huts, their gardens, their fowls, their children?
39061Would it draw their pickets on the right and left to the support of their comrades?
39061Would n''t the law step in, or if the law failed, public opinion?
39061Would the trench cut across the line of his conduit?
39061Yet how prevent it?
39061Yet what can I do?
39061You Britishers employed Red Indians in our war of Independence, did n''t you?"
39061You are in no pain?"
39061You are sure?"
39061You do not mind my speaking out?"
39061You know how giants are made for the Christmas pantomimes?"
39061You saw him coming, eh?"
39061You see dat?
39061You understan''?"
39061You vill not send order to de fort?
39061You''re not hurt at all?"
39061[ 1] Are you awake?
39061[ 1] Are you there?
39061[ 2] Are you speaking the truth?
39061[ 2] Who did it?
39061cried Elbel,"do n''t you see they''re screened by the smoke, whoever they are?
39061he did hide dem, but vat good?
39061sorr, what would I do, if I saw a man ill- treating my Pat?
