21715	And what has brought you such a long way into this wild wilderness?
21715	Are there no women at the place?

21715	How? 21715 I wonder how many trading- posts the Hudson''s Bay Company has got?"
21715	Is Darkeye a dog that he should slay an old man?
21715	It seems that one o''the men there, I think they call him Laroche-- but what makes you start, friend Jasper? 21715 May I ask where you have come from?"
21715	May I venture to ask her name?
21715	No, you''re not a dog,cried Jasper fiercely;"you are worse-- a cowardly murderer?"
21715	That''s true, father, but supposin''that all goes well with you, will ye come an''live with Marie and me?
21715	Well, Jasper, you''ll spend the night with us, wo n''t you?
21715	What have you shot? 21715 What is that?"
21715	What''s yon in the water? 21715 Who is in charge of it?"
21715	Why, where did you learn that?
21715	Will they come as enemies or friends?
21715	You?
21715	Ah, what should we do without hope in this world?"
21715	Come, will you eat or smoke?"
21715	D''ye know what it is, Heywood, to fall in love at first sight?"

21715	I see-- a grey swan-- no, surely, it can not be a goose?"
21715	Is the canoe ready?"
21715	Of course you''ll accompany us, Jasper?"
21715	Red River,"exclaimed Heywood,"I''ve heard much of that settlement-- hold steady-- I''m drawing your_ nose_ just now-- have you been there, Jasper?"
21715	What say you, Arrowhead; shall we go straight back?"
21715	Yet she could not help adding,"But perhaps, as you say, you have been in this part of the world before, you may have some one in your mind?"
21715	cried he,"can it be you?"
21715	do n''t I?"
21715	exclaimed Marie, becoming still more interested in the stranger, and blushing deeply as she asked--"You have friends there, no doubt?"
21715	what do you mean?"
21715	what have you shot?"
21732	All square_ here_?
21732	And here?
21732	Are these cakes?
21732	Breakfast be ready ver''soon,said Ladoc,"monsieur vill eat first, p''r''aps?"
21732	Can any of the three men navigate the sloop?
21732	Come, not a bad thing in times like these,observed Jack;"will you carry this or the rifle, my man?
21732	Did you not understand me?
21732	Eh? 21732 Eh?"
21732	Eh?
21732	Grog?
21732	Have no Indians been here since I left?
21732	Have you?
21732	Ill? 21732 In the blues?"
21732	Indeed: then you were a commissioned officer?
21732	Is that you, Joe?
21732	Monsieur?
21732	No hands lost, I hope?
21732	Not that I''m aware of,said Murray;"but you know something of navigation, yourself, do n''t you?"
21732	Supperstitious, is it?
21732	The three men you mean to give me know their work, I presume?
21732	Then the savages have been giving you trouble, have they?
21732	Try? 21732 Very good,"replied Jack; turning to Ladoc,"now, my man, are you ready to start for the upper fishery?"
21732	Well, boys, what cheer?
21732	What do you call the new fort?
21732	What fort is this?
21732	What have we here?
21732	What have you got?
21732	What is it made of?
21732	What is that?
21732	What''s that?
21732	What''s wrong now?
21732	What''s your price?
21732	Where have_ you_ dropped from?
21732	You hear?
21732	You will?
21732	You''ve not been ill, have you?
21732	Your name is Teddy O''Donel?
21732	After some minutes Jack turned to his companion with a bland smile, and said--"The next station is-- how many miles did you say?"
21732	Any news?
21732	Do you go soon?"
21732	Has it not been said, that in the great city of London itself a man may be more solitary than in the heart of the wilderness?
21732	Have you never sailed a boat?"
21732	His first remark to the men was a prowl; his order to Rollo was a pause, with an_ intention_; his"you hear?"
21732	How then shall we find it?"
21732	Is there any port hereabouts, where we could get a bit o''summat to eat?"
21732	It''s_ you_, sur?
21732	Jack crushed back his anger as he came up, and said in a calm, deliberate voice,"What_ now_, Rollo?"
21732	Probably it was this that induced him to give utterance to the expression--"I wonder how long this sort of thing will last?"
21732	Shall I set off this forenoon?"
21732	There never is; and if there was, what would be the odds to me?"
21732	What have we here?"
21732	What would you more?
21732	What''ll yer plaze to dhrink, sur?"
21732	Why, what on earth have you been doing to the door?"
21732	and which of the two are worst?"
21732	has he?"
21732	what have we here?"
21732	what''s that?"
21732	what?
23129	Are there not many kinds of marmots in America? 23129 But why did he not pick it up in the water?"
23129	But why do they do so? 23129 Can we not assist you?"
23129	Cousin Frank,said he, one evening as they floated along,"you wish very much to get a shot at the swans?"
23129	Do they ever kill the ospreys?
23129	Do you expect the dog to fetch him out?
23129	Do you mean to make soup in your shoe, Luce?
23129	How do you know there are sturgeon in the lake?
23129	How do you mean to do it, brother?
23129	How large a tree would it require?
23129	How?
23129	How?
23129	I say, cook, what''s for dinner to- morrow?
23129	Is it necessary the night should be a dark one?
23129	Prairie- dogs, you mean?--the same we met with on the Southern prairies?
23129	Roast or boiled-- which would you prefer?
23129	Well, what is it, brother?
23129	Well,inquired Lucien,"what pleases you, coz?"
23129	What are these, captain?
23129	What are they?
23129	What difference?
23129	What is it?
23129	What is it?
23129	What other sort?
23129	What say you, brothers?
23129	What shall we do?
23129	Why, what''s to hinder us to hew a log, and make a dugout? 23129 You may ask, Why so many names?
23129	You think there are cedar- trees on the hills we saw this morning?
23129	You would rather not go back up the river?
23129	_ Tripe de roche_?
23129	All of them acknowledged this, but what else could they do?
23129	Are they not, Cousin Luce?"
23129	Are you still ready to undertake it?
23129	Boy reader, do you share my joy?
23129	Boy reader, you have heard of the Hudson''s Bay Company?
23129	But the beasts gone to the bottom-- how can we get at him?"
23129	But their provisions were at length entirely exhausted, and what was to be done?
23129	But what could it avail him?
23129	But what of that?
23129	But whither go our Boy Hunters in their birch- bark canoe?
23129	But whither go they now?
23129	Come, boy reader, shall we accompany them?
23129	Could she have drowned herself?
23129	Do n''t you think so, Luce?"
23129	Do you suppose that these birds do not_ think_?
23129	Do you think that he was not aware of this advantage when he started in the race?
23129	Does the prospect not deter you?
23129	First,--would our hunters find any swans on the river?
23129	Francois,"rejoined Basil,"it''s easy to say` make a boat;''how is that to be done, I pray?"
23129	Had he seen any?
23129	Had she dashed her head against a rock, or become entangled in weeds at the bottom of the river?
23129	Had some great fish, the"gar pike,"or some such creature, got hold of and swallowed her?
23129	Have the fish of the lakes no enemy?
23129	He was within three feet of the muzzle of my rifle; but what of that when I could not get the gun to go off?
23129	How could they free the rope?
23129	How were they to reach that afoot?
23129	I shall be satisfied with the table-- what care I for mahogany?
23129	In the water were fish-- they doubted not that-- but how were they to catch them?
23129	Is it a raft you mean, Cousin Norman?"
23129	It has been asked: Why they do not capture the fish themselves?
23129	It was fast at both ends, and how were they to release it from the rock they had left?
23129	It''s a splendid skin-- why not get it too?"
23129	Many had been seen on the preceding day, and why not then?
23129	One of them could easily cross over again and untie it, but how was he to get back to the others?
23129	Second,--if they should, would these birds allow themselves to be approached near enough to be shot at?
23129	Should they kill him on the spot or go a little farther?
23129	The owl would make but a spare breakfast, and after that where was the next meal to come from?
23129	The suggestion was a good one, but where was the rope to come from?
23129	The_ tripe de roche_ had to be boiled,--it could not be eaten else,--and where was the fire?
23129	This Norman''s companions could easily credit, but where was the meat to come from?
23129	Under these circumstances would he remain so long, unless something unpleasant had happened to him?
23129	Were it not so, how could they exist in the midst of an Arctic summer, when the days are months in duration?
23129	Were they all together when you shot them?"
23129	What are they, Luce?"
23129	What are they?"
23129	What could they do with it?
23129	What sort of wolves are they?"
23129	What was to be done?
23129	What, then, could they do?
23129	When would he be relieved?
23129	When would the fierce brute feel inclined to leave him?
23129	Where, then, had she gone?
23129	Whither go they?
23129	Who is he?
23129	Why then, I should ask-- why this complication?
23129	Will you believe me, when I tell you that all this immense tract is a wilderness-- a howling wilderness, if you like a poetical name?
23129	Would they be able to trace him from the camp?
23129	Would you like to know something of the country whence come these furs?--of the animals whose backs have been stripped to obtain them?
23129	You are ready?
23129	You remember Marengo?
23129	asked Francois, appealing to Basil and Lucien;"shall we have the sport?
23129	continued he, pointing ahead;"you see yonder rocks?
23129	cried Basil, flinging down the bag,"how are you off for supper?
23129	cried Francois, starting up as if something had occurred to him;"what about the wolverene?
23129	where was the wood to make one?
32236	An''what for wu''d a leave it eating a''the oatmeal? 32236 And when no sound comes back?"
32236	Could the white man run fast?
32236	How could they do that if they were not alive?
32236	Montagnais? 32236 What do you do when the clouds catch you on this sort of a ledge?"
32236	Add to that the twenty shot, and what does the day''s work represent?
32236	Afraid?
32236	And were the men carving a way through the wilderness only the bushwhackers who have pioneered other forest lands?
32236	And what did MacDougall do?
32236	And what place in the scale of destruction does the trapper occupy?
32236	And what was the alert North- West Company doing?
32236	And who are the subjects living under this Mosaic paternalism?
32236	Are such onslaughts common among bears, or are they the mad freaks of the bear''s nature?
32236	Besides, what''s this across the creek?
32236	Black fox turning to a dull gray of midsummer may not be silver fox; but what about gray fox turning to the beautiful glossy black of midwinter?
32236	But how about Mr. Blue Fox of the same size and habit as the white Arctic?
32236	But that was enough for Koot-- it was prompt answer to his prayer; for where do the jays quarrel and fight and flutter but on the trail?
32236	But what does that matter?
32236	But what of the ruthless slaughter among the little musk- rats?
32236	Colter afraid?
32236	Could it be the dog?
32236	Did a man enlist?
32236	Did he bear some message from the Nor''Westers to MacDougall?
32236	Did the crushed spear- grass tell any tales of what had passed that mud hole?
32236	Do these two, badger and coyote, consciously hunt together?
32236	Does a husky fag?
32236	Does every prospector expect to find gold nuggets?
32236	Does he hope for a silver fox?
32236	Does humanity not revolt at the thought?
32236	Does the Indian trapper see all this?
32236	Does the bird perch on a tree?
32236	Does the mouse thread a hundred mazes and hide in a hole?
32236	Does the rat hide under rock?
32236	Enemies could be seen soon enough; but where could the trapper hide on bare prairie?
32236	Had a piece of fungus been torn from a hemlock log?
32236	Had not Colter crossed the Rockies with Lewis and Clark and spent two years in the mountain fastnesses?
32236	Hang back and starve with him, or hasten forward while they had strength, to the party whose track they had espied?
32236	Here the track is lost at the narrow ford of an inflowing stream, but across the creek lies a fallen poplar littered with-- what?
32236	How did these coasters of the wilds guide themselves over prairies that were a chartless sea and mountains that were a wilderness?
32236	How did these rulers of the wilds, these princes of the fur trade, live in lonely forts and mountain fastnesses?
32236	How did they do it?
32236	How does it feel benighted among those clouds?
32236	How does the wavey know where to find the rush- grown inland pools?
32236	How much farther would the cañon lead?
32236	How were those fabulously costly skins prepared?
32236	How would he get his directions to set out?
32236	In which of the hundred water- ways in the labyrinth of pond and stream where beavers roam is this particular family to be found?
32236	Is anything that man has ever done to the buffalo herd half as tragically pitiful as nature''s process of deposing a buffalo leader?
32236	Is he a freak or a climax or the regular product of yearly climatic changes caught in the nick of time by some lucky trapper?
32236	Is he the Arctic fox in summer clothing?
32236	Is it the same with the silver fox?
32236	Is silver fox simply a fine specimen of black caught at the very period when he is blooming into his greatest beauty?
32236	Is that what makes silver fox?
32236	Is the fire out?
32236	Is this trapping not after all brutal butchery?
32236	Is this true?
32236	It is the old question, should animal life be sacrificed to preserve human life?
32236	It was the Raccoon, and the British captain addressed the Astorians in words that have become historic:"_ Is this the fort I''ve heard so much about?
32236	Mais, Montagnais, he stick gun- stock in de snow stop heem fall-- so-- see?
32236	Need one ask why the rarest furs, which can only be produced by the coldest of climates, are so costly?
32236	Of how many companies that it has cared for the sick, sought the lost, fed the starving, housed the homeless?
32236	Of how many other creditors may that be said?
32236	Of how many other men can that be said?
32236	Once caught in the steel jaws, little wapistan must wait-- wait for what?
32236	Or does he aim at bigger game?
32236	Scrambling up, he saw that a stick had caught the web of his snow- shoe; but where was the barrel for which he had been steering?
32236	Should Vanderburgh stay or follow?
32236	Should he turn back?
32236	Should the Americans follow or stay?
32236	Should they go higher up or not?
32236	Should they shoot in the half- dark?
32236	That brings up the question-- what is a silver fox?
32236	The children''s hour, has a great poet called a certain time of day?
32236	Then-- was it possible?--these grizzled fellows, dressed in tinkers''tatters, were singing-- what?
32236	To- day where are the buffalo?
32236	Was a_ voyageur_ on the point of embarking?
32236	Was he not carrying the snared rabbits over his shoulder?
32236	Was it wooded or clear plain above the walls?
32236	Were n''t the mountaineers leaving a trifle too soon?
32236	Were there other impressions dimmer on the dry mud?
32236	What Indian would have so little sense?
32236	What are the facts regarding the buffalo?
32236	What brought about the change?
32236	What did the ancient company care?
32236	What gift has wapistan, the marten, to protect himself against all the powers that prey?
32236	What had dug that hole?
32236	What heeds the trapper?
32236	What if he had crossed the trail?
32236	What if the storm came and wiped out the trail before he could reach the fort?
32236	What if this were the long- lost Mr. Hunt coming back from Alaskan trade on the Beaver?
32236	What is the secret of the musk- rat''s survival while the strong creatures of the chase like buffalo and timber- wolf have been almost exterminated?
32236	What man hunter would follow so far?
32236	What ought they to do?
32236	What quarry does he seek, this lawless forager of the upper airs still hunting a hidden nook of the low prairie?
32236	What then?
32236	What was it?
32236	What was that noise?
32236	What was the matter?
32236	What would Blackfeet be doing, riding at a pace to make such thunder so close to a cañon?
32236	Where did this family come from?
32236	Where had the fugitive gone?
32236	Where is the runway in which the others are hiding?
32236	Where to go now?
32236	Where was the master who had bidden them stand while he felt his way blindly through the white whirl of a blizzard for the lost path?
32236	Which way does the newly- discovered footprint run?
32236	Who had told Vanderburgh and Drips that the mountaineers were to meet at Pierre''s Hole in 1832?
32236	Who taught them this devilish ingenuity of attack?

32236	Who would enter and learn if the Deschamps were all dead?
32236	Why did MacDougall lose his tone of courage with such surprising swiftness?
32236	Why do they?
32236	Why does it lie on its back rigid and straight as if it were dead with all four tiny paws clutched out stiff?
32236	Why was Stuart, an honourable, fair- minded man, in such high dudgeon that he shook free of Thompson''s company on their way back up the Columbia?
32236	Why, then, is there no capture?
32236	Will he take it home and try the experiment of rearing a young mink with a family of kittens?
32236	Will he wait out that long Northern night?
32236	Would he then be so brave?

32236	he asked thickly, fumbling with both hands,"what is done to my eyes?
16596	''Tis like gettin''back t''th''Bay,said Bob, and he asked the Eskimos,"Will there be igloosoaks( shacks) all the way?"
16596	''Tisn''t Bob instead o''Emily you''re wantin''so wonderful bad t''see now, is un?

16596	But how could all this ha''been happenin''t''me now?
16596	But how''ll we be gettin''un now?
16596	But,she insisted,"he''s an angel now_ if_ th''wolves killed un?"

16596	Oh,broke in Emily,"an''do n''t un_ really_ think Bob''s t''come?
16596	Santa Claus? 16596 This side o''th''river or t''other?"
16596	Well, Ungava Bob,the factor greeted,"are you getting tired of Ungava and anxious to get away?"
16596	Well, how far down ought we t''go, d''ye think, before we lays up?
16596	Well,asked Dick, when Ed was finally seated,"how''d th''mother take un?"
16596	Were this in_ winter_?
16596	What devilment has th''Injun been doin''? 16596 What does I do?
16596	What does I do? 16596 What mean you, man?
16596	What stove?
16596	What were Bob havin''two axes for?
16596	What were the yarn, now?
16596	What''s th''matter with goin''down in th''fall before th''ice blocks th''coast? 16596 What''s un think, Bill?"
16596	When you wantin''t''go, lass?

16596	Where am I?
16596	Where be un?
16596	Where did you hail from? 16596 Where now be that?"
16596	Where un hail from?
16596	Where''d ye land, now?
16596	Where''s yer other fur?
16596	Which way should they go?
16596	Who is it?
16596	Who may th''Mingen Injuns be, now?
16596	Who un talkin''to?
16596	Whose now may un be if not Bob''s?
16596	Why,she asked,"had he two axes?"
16596	Ye sees steam, o''course, an''what else could ye see, now?
16596	After an awkward pause Bob asked:"What un do wi''th''stove, John?"
16596	An''be he a good un?"
16596	An''be there much signs on th''Big Hill trail?
16596	An''be un a good un?"
16596	An''how could ye live wi''th''Injuns?
16596	An''where has he gone?
16596	An''where''d you be comin''from now?"
16596	An''why has th''Injun been leavin''th''fur here an''not comin''for un again?
16596	Are you a good traveller?"
16596	As I was sayin''----""An''he took after ye without bein''provoked?"
16596	Be that a threat?
16596	Be there much marten signs?"
16596	Bide here th''night, ca n''t un?"
16596	Bob asked once,"What''s to be done with Chealuk?"
16596	But then he asked himself, would his mother approve of this?
16596	But why were Bob leavin''wi''th''stove?
16596	Ca n''t un come''long, John?"
16596	Ca n''t un wait a week or two?"
16596	Could the Nascaupees have found his camp and carried his things away?
16596	Does un mind that?"
16596	Ed, would un_ mind_ goin''?"
16596	Finally he asked,"When ye goin''back t''th''river, Bob?"
16596	Got him here?"
16596	Had the half- breed been suddenly smitten by his conscience?
16596	Has she been lonesome without her daddy?"
16596	Has you seen any signs o''Santa Claus bein''here?"
16596	He entered the cabin with the old greeting--"An''how''s my maid been wi''out her daddy?"
16596	How does un look t''be fierce an''scare folk?"
16596	How far is that from Eskimo Bay,--a hundred miles?"
16596	How in the world did you ever get across the country?
16596	How is un?"
16596	If ye ai n''t goin''back till Wednesday why do n''t ye try''em?
16596	Is that a bargain?"
16596	Is there anything yer wantin'', Mary?"
16596	Now where be Bob?
16596	Now why did he_ leave_ th''fur?
16596	Now, what''s your true name, lad?
16596	Now,"he continued when they were seated,"what do you think you''ll do?"
16596	Once, late in November, she called her mother to her and asked:"Mother, how long will it be now an''Bob comes home?"
16596	One day towards the last of May he asked Emily:"How''d un like t''go t''St. Johns an''have th''doctors make a fine, strong maid of un again?
16596	One day when Douglas Campbell came over he found her very despondent, and he asked:"Now what''s troublin''you, Mary?
16596	So what does I do?"
16596	So, this was the place, but where was the tent?
16596	Then to the half- breed:"An''what''s ailin''of ye th''evenin'', John?
16596	Then, as a dismissal of the subject, the doctor, turning to Bob, asked:"Well, youngster, what''s the outlook for fur next season?"
16596	Was it Bob they were after?
16596	What did you say your name is?"
16596	What has become o''my brave lad?"
16596	What un cryin''for, now?"
16596	What un tell such things for, Ed?"
16596	What''s your name?"
16596	When did you leave home?"
16596	When he reached for a firebrand to light it Dick noticed what he was doing and asked good naturedly,--"Think t''smoke with us, eh?"
16596	When he returned to the tilt Micmac John asked:"Gettin''much fur?"
16596	When he was finally seated Mr. McPherson asked:"That was Sishetakushin''s crowd you came with, was n''t it?"
16596	Where in the world, or what spirit land did you come from?
16596	Where''d ye get th''deer''s meat?"
16596	Why do n''t ye try it there, sir?"
16596	Why had he not thought of all this before?
16596	Why not go to sleep?
16596	Why should he?
16596	Why, for instance, he asked himself, did Micmac John steal the furs and then leave them in the tilt where they were found?
16596	Will you keep them safe if I let you go with the Eskimos?"
16596	Would Dick shoot him?
16596	Ye took un, did n''t ye?"
16596	Ye''d do murder, would ye?
16596	Ye''d kill un, would ye?"
16596	You wo n''t be gettin''lonesome now?"
16596	You''re the young fellow just arrived, I suppose?"
16596	[ Illustration:"He held the vessel steadily to her course"]"What land may that be?"
16596	an''what''s_ this_?"
16596	exclaimed Richard,"what may_ that_ be?
16596	he exclaimed,"an''has th''old rascal been forgettin''t''come again?
18182	''Ave ye taken the hoath of hallegiance, sir?
18182	A message to me?
18182	A nunnery?
18182	Afraid?
18182	After communion?
18182	Ah?
18182	Am I a prisoner?
18182	Am I not grown tall?
18182	Am I to be shot? 18182 Am I to be shot?"
18182	An the French reward us not well for this winter''s work, that little maid may open a door back to England; eh, kinsman?
18182	An your fine gentlemen grow rich that way, why may n''t I?
18182	And I suppose you will be telling me there are no Indians up there among the rafters?
18182	And how comes Your Excellency to be out so late with ten men?
18182	And how he risked his life to save an Indian girl''s life?
18182	And now,said he, hastening through the bush,"as no one took fright at all that firing, what''s to hinder examining the ship?"
18182	And the end?
18182	And the marines?
18182	And the officers?
18182	And what are you going to do?
18182	And what does Mistress Hortense say?
18182	And what might this young man want?
18182	And what might you want, stealing up like a thief in the night?
18182	And what,he demanded,"what doth a little cavalier in a Puritan hotbed?"
18182	And who is that?
18182	And who is this?
18182	And who would find a husband for a portionless bride?
18182	And your French mind?
18182	And-- and-- all the officers were there on the Sabbath?
18182	Anything else?
18182	Are they gone?
18182	Are you jealous of anything so small?
18182	Are you son o''the Stanhope that fought on the king''s side?
18182	Are you sure there''s nothing?
18182	As long as she gets it, what does it matter who takes it?
18182	Aye, and as I have some rare furs for them both, why not let us bear the news to them ourselves?
18182	Back?
18182	Be_ he_ fairer than the day Or the_ June- field coils of hay_; If_ he_ be not so to me, What care I how_ fine_ he be?
18182	Ben,said he, never taking his glance from the young fellow''s face,"what will you give me if I guide you to your father this afternoon?
18182	But I sent a message to the fort----"Not to be bitten by the same dog twice-- I thought that meant to keep away?
18182	But about these English prisoners, of whom La Chesnaye sent word from Isle Percée?
18182	But how was Mistress Hortense to know that?
18182	But where are their foot- marks?
18182	But who is this, Jack?
18182	But, Rebecca----"Will you come for Hortense''s sake?
18182	But--Rebecca was blushing furiously,"but-- I mean-- was there a chaplain?
18182	Ca n''t you break through the thongs and get a hand free?
18182	Can you guess who that sailor- lad is, Rebecca?
18182	Can-- I ever-- ever repay you-- Hortense?
18182	Captain Gillam''s boat?
18182	Confess what? 18182 Cornered?
18182	D''ye mind how we got away from the Iroquois, Chouart?
18182	Did he? 18182 Did the cub''s hangdog of a father not offer a thousand pounds for my head on the end of a pikestaff?"
18182	Did the north not agree with Sieur Radisson?
18182	Did you see her oft, Ramsay?
18182	Did you see_ her_?
18182	Do n''t you understand? 18182 Do the Scriptures lie, Ramsay Stanhope?
18182	Do we sail in that case?
18182	Do you go with me or no?
18182	Do you mean that Jack Battle has married a squaw?
18182	Do you mean the court, sir?
18182	Do you mean this little gentleman?
18182	Do you mind, Chouart,he asked,"how the padre wanted to put poison in the meat, and the Dutchman would n''t let him?
18182	Does the cub think to cower me with his threats?
18182	Doth Boston air bring red so quick to all faces?
18182	Doth looking hurt yon star?
18182	Eh, nephew,exclaims Radisson sharply,"how are the cannon?"
18182	Face what?
18182	Faith, mademoiselle,said I ruefully,"an she may n''t play war on the commons, what may she play?"
18182	Fit crossing?
18182	Forever?
18182	Furs?
18182	Gad''s life, ca n''t you see?
18182	Gentlemen,says M. Radisson, with the fires agleam in his deep- set eyes,"am I to understand that every one here is for going forward at any risk?"
18182	Godefroy,I asked,"how long will this last?"
18182	Gone?
18182	Has one run away from the island against orders?
18182	Hath the little Puritan helped to get them married right?
18182	Have I put bread in thy mouth, Ramsay Stanhope, that thou shouldst turn traitor? 18182 Have we not wrestled mightily for signs and wonders?"
18182	Have you lost a man, Ben?
18182	Have you not heard, Jack?
18182	Have you seen Hortense?
18182	Have you seen her?
18182	He gives''em that saucy brat, does he? 18182 He hath taken the oath?"
18182	Hortense, should an oath to the dead bind the living?
18182	Hortense, then it was you that I saw at the fire with the others?
18182	Hortense, who sent Le Borgne and M. Picot to save me from the wolves?
18182	Hortense-- Hortense-- how am I to keep a promise?
18182	How about that Canary taken from the foreign ship? 18182 How can I handle all the English of both forts unless I win some of them for friends?"
18182	How close can your gunners hit, Ben?
18182	How did you come here?
18182	How do you know, Ramsay?
18182	How goes the keeping of accounts, Ramsay?
18182	How is she called?
18182	How long ago was that, Colonel Blood?
18182	How long do you intend to squat here anchored to an ice- pan?
18182	How many beaver- skins?
18182	How many have you?
18182	How shall we bring up the matter of Hortense?
18182	How?
18182	I hear you are fur trading, Ramsay?
18182	I promised to treat you as I would a sister-- but what-- Hortense?
18182	If I could only take her place----"Take her place, Rebecca?
18182	If killing''s no murder, whose turn comes next?
18182	If there are no Indians, how much farther do we go, sir?
18182	In the name o''the fiends, when did you arrive, man?
18182	Is Hortense-- so dear?
18182	Is M. Radisson back?
18182	Is anything there? 18182 Is anything there?"
18182	Is he a spy?
18182	Is it a wager?
18182	Is not this the place?
18182	Is not yon Le Borgne?
18182	Is the fire not big enough?
18182	It is not-- no-- it is not Jack?
18182	It was you who pleaded for my life in the cave below my feet?
18182	Jack,I asked,"where is Hortense?"
18182	Jack,I warned, thinking of Ben Gillam''s craft rigged with sails of as many colours as Joseph''s coat,"Jack-- is it a pirate- ship?"
18182	La Chesnaye has told you?
18182	La Chesnaye''s son----"Have the ships a good cargo? 18182 Le Borgne, was any one here with you?"
18182	Le Borgne, you rascal, is this a way to treat your friends?
18182	Le Borgne,I ask,"was any one here?"
18182	Let''s see?
18182	Look, you rantipole-- who is that?
18182	Love-- what?
18182	Maid of honour to the lonely queen?
18182	Man alive, why do n''t you carve a way?
18182	Married in the north? 18182 Married?"
18182	Master Stanhope?
18182	May I ask, sir, how you know the pirate signals?
18182	May I examine them, Rebecca?
18182	Mizza snared rabbits and I stole back my musket when we ran away and did some shooting long as powder lasted----"And then?
18182	Must I spell it out? 18182 Must a woman ever be a cat''s- paw to man''s ambitions?"
18182	Mutinied? 18182 No one here, lad?"
18182	No-- no,says the dream- face, with the love that divines without speech,"do you not understand?
18182	No; but you''ll ask her?
18182	No?
18182	Now tell me, whose is she, and what value do you set on her?
18182	Now what in the Old Nick does he mean by that?
18182	Now, where are your wits, lad? 18182 Oh, I get work enough on the docks to pay for Mizza''s lessons--""Lessons?"
18182	Oh, lordy,taunts an English prisoner out on parole one day,"any angels from kingdom come that you Frenchies keep meek as lambs?"
18182	Oh,she cried,"were you not asleep?
18182	Oh?
18182	Perhaps you remember a New Amsterdam gentleman and a page boy leaving Boston on the Prince Rupert?
18182	Promise-- and when did promise o''yours hold good, Pierre Radisson?
18182	Ramsay Stanhope,begins my uncle sourly,"what do you with uncropped hair and the foolish trappings of vanity?"
18182	Ramsay,inquired Jack quizzically,"do you happen to have heard who has the keys?"
18182	Ramsay,said M. Radisson, speaking very low and tense,"As you hope to live and without a lie, what-- does-- this-- mean?"
18182	Ramsay,she asked with a sudden look straight through my eyes,"what did he make you promise when-- when-- he was dying?"
18182	Ramsay?
18182	Ramsay?
18182	Ramsay?
18182	Rebecca, Madame Radisson has told you how Jack was left to be tortured by the Indians?
18182	Rebecca,I demanded,"what do you mean?"
18182	Rebecca,I whispered, leaning across the bench,"you are big enough to have a-- what?
18182	Rebecca-- what is it?
18182	Right?
18182	Royalist?
18182	Services?
18182	Shall I lend you a trumpet, La Chesnaye, or-- or a fife?
18182	Sir,said I,"have you nothing more to say?
18182	Sir?
18182	Sir?
18182	Sir?
18182	Spanish adventurer-- Your Excellency? 18182 Take it to her?"
18182	Thanks,says Ben, twirling his mustaches till they were nigh jerked out,"but how long would they stay?"
18182	The poor thing kept telling me and telling me to trust you till I--"Till you what, Hortense?
18182	The ship would be of some value; but why take the men prisoners? 18182 The white- man is Le Borgne''s friend,"assured Groseillers,"but who are these?"
18182	The wolves got Godefroy,I would reason,"how did n''t they get me?
18182	Then you''ll not need Rebecca for six months or so?
18182	They do say as''ow it is for love of Mary Kirke and not the English--"Your renegade of a French-- who?
18182	Think?
18182	To sail in, Jack Battle?
18182	Was it not enough that thou wert utterly bound in iniquity without persecuting the Lord''s anointed?
18182	Was it?
18182	Was that the message he gave you? 18182 Well?"
18182	Well?
18182	Were the courtiers about?
18182	Were those your ships?
18182	Were you so mighty proud the other night that you could not come to see a humble ward of the court?
18182	What I done about a mate?
18182	What a deuce?
18182	What are king- killers?
18182	What are king- killers?
18182	What are those, Rebecca?
18182	What are you doing back there, La Chesnaye?
18182	What d''ye lack? 18182 What did he give for the pelts, Godefroy?"
18182	What did you put in the meat, Pierre?
18182	What do you make of it, Godefroy?
18182	What do you think we should do, sir?
18182	What do you want in return?
18182	What does Captain Radisson advise?
18182	What does he say, Godefroy?
18182	What does he say, Godefroy?
18182	What else was there to do, Hortense? 18182 What for, Ben?"
18182	What has that to do with Mistress Hortense?
18182	What have you come for?
18182	What have you under your arm?
18182	What is he saying to them now?
18182	What you-- come for?
18182	What''s my boy doing?
18182	What''s that?
18182	What''s the matter with your hand? 18182 What, Hillary?
18182	What-- what else was there to do?
18182	What?
18182	What?
18182	What?
18182	What?
18182	When did you feel him getting away from you?
18182	When-- when-- did you come?
18182	Where did you come from?
18182	Where is Balaam?
18182	Where is Master Ben?
18182	Where is Mistress Hortense?
18182	Where is a man to take cover, an the buccaneers began shooting from the bush behind?
18182	Where is my master?
18182	Where to, Jack?
18182	White- man-- promise-- no-- hurt-- good Indian?
18182	Who did that? 18182 Who is that, Godefroy?"
18182	Who must fight them all?
18182	Who paid you to poison Hortense? 18182 Who said''slave''?"
18182	Who sent Le Borgne for us in the storm, Hortense?
18182	Who shoot what?
18182	Who''s there?
18182	Who''s who when he''s drunk? 18182 Who-- what is this?"
18182	Who?
18182	Who?
18182	Who?
18182	Who?
18182	Whom do you make them out to be, Ramsay?
18182	Why did n''t you go round to her box, the way M. Radisson did to the king''s?
18182	Why did n''t you sell her to some Spanish adventurer before you came here?
18182	Why do n''t you take it to her, Jack?
18182	Why have n''t you?
18182	Why not?
18182	Why, when a king, who is too busy to sign death- reprieves, may spend the night hunting a single moth from room to room of the palace? 18182 Why-- why did you promise that?"
18182	Why-- why-- didn''t you give us warning?
18182	Why?
18182	Why?
18182	Will you do me the honour to satisfy yourself that wound is genuine?
18182	Will you petition the king direct?
18182	Would another bridesmaid do?
18182	Yes?
18182	You are not afraid?
18182	You mean to send her to Mary Kirke?
18182	You think-- it''s-- it''s-- all right?
18182	You''ll not take the odds? 18182 Your fine gallants have so many fine speeches----""Have you been here long?"
18182	Your wife? 18182 _ Her_?"
18182	''Tis not your girl- page?
18182	****** And had I once thought that Eli Kirke''s fanatic faith painted too lurid a hell?
18182	A galleon, did you say, tall and slim?
18182	A night- watchman shuffled along with swinging lantern, calling out:"What ho?
18182	A_ hard_ master, you say?
18182	Am I to be shot?"
18182	An a man wins, who a devil gives a rush for the winnings?
18182	An you listen to Deliverance Dobbins''s lies, what hinders any lying wench sending good men to the scaffold?"
18182	And again I ask why not, when the law of their life was to kill or to be killed?
18182	And did I know of any secret league between Captain Zachariah Gillam and Mr. Stocking to trade without commission?
18182	And now she must marry the boy----""Why?"
18182	And was not that Jack Battle greeting her outside in the dark?
18182	And what do you think M. Radisson said as he wiped the sweat from his brow?
18182	And what do you think that black- eyed jade asks when I present the furs and tell of our captured Frenchmen?
18182	And what words, think you, came quick on top of his first sharp outcry?
18182	And-- and was not Mistress Hortense the only woman----?"
18182	Are n''t you and me to be shipped on a raft for the English fort at the foot o''the bay?"
18182	Are the timbers of your room sound?"
18182	Beaten?
18182	Before I gained strength to escape, would M. Radisson have left for Quebec?
18182	Ben took us to the north with Le Borgne for interpreter----""Does Ben know you are here?"
18182	But how could one forage for food with a right arm in bands and a left unsteady as aim of a girl?
18182	But what was she saying in her sleep?
18182	But what was that sound?
18182	But where a''devil is that Indian?"
18182	But whither had he gone that he had not come back to us?
18182	But why had he flung his sword down at the moment of victory?
18182	Can you guess who this is?"
18182	Did a fellow''s tales slip an oath or two?
18182	Did a fish rise?
18182	Did it rise from the ground in the woods, or from a far memory of children throwing a bully into the sea?
18182	Did that explain why my life had been three times spared?
18182	Did they laugh at this fellow, the most helpless of all things, setting out to conquer all things?
18182	Did voices grow loud in the mess- room?
18182	Did you sink her or sell her?
18182	Do you know the risk?"
18182	Do you know what it means?
18182	Do you mind the copy- heads on the writing- books?
18182	Do you not hear the drunken revel?
18182	Do you wonder that our hearts stopped almost as suddenly as the paddles?
18182	Does Your High Mightiness give place to a merchant''s son?
18182	Does it hurt?"
18182	Eh, lad, afraid to go?"
18182	Face what?"
18182	For had not the blind forces brought Hortense to me, and me to Hortense?
18182	Good lack, what will Sir John say?"
18182	Had I not noticed the mole on the French doctor''s cheek?
18182	Had I run in a circle and come again on M. Radisson''s fire?
18182	Had he been sent for me?
18182	Had not Eli Kirke planned trading in the north with Mr. Stocking?
18182	Had spring come?
18182	Had you a preacher?
18182	Has he seen the Company?"
18182	He would give a thousand pounds for my head-- would he?
18182	How are some men born to draw all others as the sea draws the streams?
18182	How came I to be lying in Boston Town?
18182	How could I go to M. de Radisson and abandon Hortense?
18182	How could I stay with M. Picot and desert M. de Radisson?
18182	How could they get a minister a thousand leagues away from any church?
18182	How did I get away?
18182	How did he know that?
18182	How had he made the savages come to him?
18182	How long had I lain in the cave?
18182	How many days have you been here?"
18182	How much better could we have done for her?"
18182	I ask you in return why you like the spire of a cathedral pointing up instead of down; or why the muses lift souls heavenward?
18182	I had: what of it?
18182	I thought of appealing to the mercy of the judges; but what mercy had Eli Kirke received at the hands of royalists that he should be merciful to them?
18182	If once the great door were unlocked, who could tell what black arts a sorcerer might use?
18182	If this was the beginning, what was the end?
18182	In the name o''the fiends-- where from?"
18182	Is Captain Gillam stealing the Company''s furs for Ben?"
18182	Lordy,"laughs Jack,"s''pose I do n''t know what a foot on a neck feels like?
18182	Mary?"
18182	May the angel of forgiveness spread a broader mantle across our blunders than our sins, but could I have said worse?
18182	Might I not speak to the French doctor through the bars of his window?
18182	My uncle''s welcome was more than a vain lad could stomach; and what youth of his first teens hath not a vanity hidden about him somewhere?
18182	Nine lives for each man, did you say?"
18182	No?
18182	Not a- bed yet, child?
18182	Now, Rebecca, will you sit down till I tell you all about it?"
18182	Oh, that is the reason you never came----""And that is the reason you have hidden from me all the year and never sent me word?"
18182	Or make pale my cheeks with care''Cause_ Rebecca''s_ rosier are?"
18182	PART I CHAPTER I WHAT ARE KING- KILLERS?
18182	Ramsay, why did she love that north land where the wicked Frenchman took her?"
18182	Restore her to what?
18182	Shaping his hands to a trumpet, he shouted,"How are you, there?"
18182	Should I lie like a stranded hull while he perished?
18182	Should I tell him of the adventure?
18182	Spreading over the face of the New World, making the desert to bloom and the waste places fruitful gardens?
18182	Tell me that?"
18182	That was the child''s way of asking a very old question-- Was Man the sport of the elements, the plaything of all the cruel, blind gods of chance?
18182	The only doubt is how many of those pirates are there who attacked you in the woods?"
18182	Then Hortense was no dream, and love was no phantom, and God-- was what?
18182	Then a voice which only speaks when love speaks through the voice was saying,"Do you remember your dreams?"
18182	Then the Dutchman wanted to murder them all in their sleep, and the padre would n''t let him?"
18182	Then turning to me with her face aflame:"I am-- I am-- oh-- why ca n''t you understand?"
18182	Think you M. Picot burns incense to the serpent in his jars for the healing of mankind?"
18182	This was what the Indian was saying as Godefroy muttered it over to me:"Were the Indians fools and dogs to throw away two fish for the sake of one?
18182	Those guns in the bastions though-- think you those cannon are not pushed too far through the windows to be slued round quickly?"
18182	Up yet?
18182	Was I dreaming, or were there voices, English voices, talking about me?
18182	Was I not the only royalist in the house?
18182	Was M. Radisson a myth?
18182	Was he not here among them?
18182	Was it flood of memory or a sick man''s dream?
18182	Was that the only reason?"
18182	Was the northland a dream?
18182	Was the water suddenly muddied?
18182	Waters-- did I say?
18182	Were my assailants, then, Hudson''s Bay Company men come up from the south end of James Bay?
18182	Were the pirates some agents of my uncle?
18182	What a pretty mischief have you been working?
18182	What ado was this in Boston, where men were only hunters of souls and chasers of devils?
18182	What are King- Killers?
18182	What could I do?
18182	What d''ye lack?
18182	What d''ye please to lack, good sirs?
18182	What does Osmond''s daughter say?"
18182	What else was there for us to do?"
18182	What folly is this-- dear, kind Rebecca?
18182	What gain to keep up pretence longer?
18182	What had she done that she ought not to have done?
18182	What ho?"
18182	What next?"
18182	What was she trying to say with her dark hints and overnice scruples of a Puritan conscience?
18182	What was this fellow doing with a torch?
18182	What will become of her?"
18182	What will my father have to say?"
18182	What- a- deuce?
18182	When they reached the shambles, know you what they did?
18182	When we''ve taken him, lads, who-- think you-- dare complain?"
18182	Where are the New Englanders?"
18182	Where are the tribes with whom Godefroy and Jack Battle and I wandered in nomadic life over the northern wastes?
18182	Where are we, Le Borgne?"
18182	Where had I heard it before?
18182	Where is that vagabond Cree?
18182	Where is your colour of a moment ago?"
18182	Where was the brain?
18182	Where, think you, may we best secure him?
18182	Which do you mean?"
18182	While we swung at anchorman, what d''y''think happened?
18182	Who are her people?"
18182	Who had turned informer on my uncle?
18182	Who is Hortense?"
18182	Who was the third partner?
18182	Who were these night- watchers?
18182	Why did n''t I join the beaver trade of Hudson Bay?
18182	Why do n''t you join the beaver trade, Ramsay?"
18182	Why do you ask questions?
18182	Why must you and Madame Radisson and Lady Kirke all push me here?"
18182	Why not, indeed?
18182	Why not?
18182	Why should he have, when his only standard of right is conquest?
18182	Why should it not be, when his only god is victory?
18182	Why would he put her in a house of correction?
18182	Why, when a duchess must take me every morning to a milliner''s shop, where she meets her lover, who is a rope- walker?
18182	Why, when ladies of the court dress in men''s clothes to run the streets with the Scowerers?
18182	Why, when our sailors starve unpaid and gold enough lies on the basset- table of a Sunday night to feed the army?
18182	Why-- who-- who married him, Ramsay?"
18182	Why-- why-- did you promise?"
18182	Why----?"
18182	Will i Do It?
18182	Will you not come?"
18182	Would suspicion fall on me?
18182	Would''t be any better to send you to the rope than Hortense?
18182	You ask what that look was?
18182	You kept your promise, and a ward of the crown must marry whom the king names--""Marry?"
18182	any one listening?"
18182	called one, reining his horse to its haunches,"did that snivelling knave pass this way?"
18182	cries Ben,"but where a deuce are all your land forces and marines and jack- tars and forty thousand officers?"
18182	he exclaimed,"do fur- traders keep royalty awaiting?"
18182	is a slaughter better than a game?
18182	mocks Hortense,"what else is there to do?"
18182	returns Phipps,"how many beaver- skins are there in store?"
18182	says Hortense,"what else?
18182	says Hortense,"why do I hate this life?
18182	she cried impetuously,"I hate this life-- why did you all send me to it?"
18182	who married you?"
20418	All?
20418	An''in the name of the seven wonders of creation, what for would you be getting down?
20418	An''wa''d ye have me expose the head of a mitherless bairn to a''the clack o''the auld geese in the settlement? 20418 An''who''s talking of killin'', ye young cut- throat?
20418	And did they,I cried, in spite of the injunction,"did they do that to you?"
20418	And have the whole pack of them sneaking after us? 20418 And how can I strike a man who saved my life?"
20418	And pray, Sir, what might''bunk''mean?
20418	And she could n''t be lost in Charlesbourg forest?
20418	And the stone?
20418	And there was an Indian encampment a few yards down the road?
20418	And was my little Eric at the hunt, and did he shoot an arrow all by himself?
20418	And what are the capers of this, my beast, compared to the antics of fate, Sir Priest?
20418	And what did I say about Frances?
20418	And where do you go?
20418	And why is that tent apart from the rest and who is in it?
20418	And womankind?
20418	And you forgive all? 20418 And you''re quite sure she is n''t in the house?"
20418	And----"And what?
20418	Are n''t you coming? 20418 Are there no dark halls in there, unsafe for you?"
20418	Are they with you? 20418 Are they with you?"
20418	Are those buffalo, Black Cat?
20418	Are ye Rufus Gillespie?
20418	Are you Gillespie?
20418	Are you among the prophets?
20418	Are you cold, now?
20418	Are you hurt, and at such a time?
20418	Are you ill, man?
20418	Are you men back? 20418 Are you men looking for trouble?"
20418	Are you mooning after the Little Statue already?
20418	Are you possessed?
20418	Are you sure you''ll be safe?
20418	Are you sure you''re safe?
20418	Are you there?
20418	Are you tired, Frances?
20418	Are-- they-- with-- you?
20418	Art satisfied?
20418	Aye-- is it Frances y''r speerin''after?
20418	Bad men?
20418	Bag him, eh?
20418	Be still-- you what?
20418	Because they saw you with me?
20418	Because----"Because what?
20418	Burning hay- ricks?
20418	But it did n''t succeed?
20418	But the Citadel paper?
20418	But the road, Eric?
20418	By Jove, Hamilton, we need it, do n''t we?
20418	Call that hard luck?
20418	Certainly we are, but get this truck to higher ground, will you?
20418	Colin Robertson-- the Nor''-Wester?
20418	Could n''t they have gone down the road to those Indian encampments?
20418	Crying?
20418	Dear love-- wherever are you?
20418	Did I rive ye sore, lad?
20418	Did I strike somebody? 20418 Did I strike somebody?"
20418	Did that spring up all of a sudden?
20418	Did the little wifie let him off for a night''s play?
20418	Did they torture you?
20418	Did ye ever-- did ever ye see such a little termagant, such a persuasive, commanding little queen of a termagant?
20418	Did you really expect him back alive from the Bloods?
20418	Do I?
20418	Do my eyes tell lies? 20418 Do n''t you know?"
20418	Do you find the way very far-- Frances?
20418	Do you know where he is?
20418	Do you need to ask with such a galaxy of nut- brown maidens?
20418	Do you really mean it? 20418 Do you really want to know how?"
20418	Do you think the_ Bois- Brulés_ would plunder your boats?
20418	Do-- with-- him?
20418	Do_ I_ scent matrimony?
20418	Eagles, are they?
20418	Eh?
20418	Eric Hamilton, are you mad?
20418	Faith, now, what might they all be doing with stars for diadems? 20418 For anything else?"
20418	For the trial of cases occurring?
20418	Friend, or foe?
20418	From whom?
20418	Game scarce on MacKenzie River?
20418	Gillespie, man, what''s wrong? 20418 Had him in your power-- knew what he''d done-- and-- and-- didn''t?"
20418	Hang it,drawled Colonel Adderly, a squatty man with an over- fed look on his bulging, red cheeks,"hang it, you do n''t expect Hamilton?
20418	Has any one seen Eric Hamilton?
20418	Has your Lordship some colonization scheme that you ask such pointed questions?
20418	Have I been here for months?
20418	Have n''t many brethren come from the same tribe more like warped branches than men? 20418 Have the Indians passed, or are they to come?"
20418	Have they been making ladders?
20418	Have ye as much as got a glint of her eye to- day?
20418	Have ye no seen Frances?
20418	Have you-- oh-- have you?
20418	He is coming?
20418	He''d let you hear about it to all eternity, too, would n''t he?
20418	Help you up?
20418	Hoo are ye, gillie?
20418	Hoo are ye, gillie?
20418	How are you going to get''em to her?
20418	How can I, Louis Laplante, son of a seigneur, strike a man who wo n''t hit back?
20418	How could we know that Selkirk would purchase controlling interest in Hudson''s Bay stock? 20418 How did you reach Fort Gibraltar?"
20418	How do you know he''s a spy?
20418	How do you know?
20418	How far,I began, with a curious inability to use my wits and tongue,"how far-- I mean how long have I been asleep, sir?"
20418	How stands the hour- glass?
20418	How strong are the Mandanes?
20418	How''s the cold in your head?
20418	Hudson''s Bay been tampering with your Indians? 20418 Hudson''s Bay, or Nor''-Wester?"
20418	I beg your pardon, gentlemen,said I,"what were you saying to Colonel Adderly?"
20418	I have had?

20418	I say,exclaimed a man joining the group,"d''y''hear the news?

20418	Is boy sleepy?
20418	Is it a cold night?
20418	Is it a long story, Rufus?
20418	Is it a pretty story, Rufus?
20418	Is it white?
20418	Is it you, Eric? 20418 Is it you, really you, looking as old as your great grandfather?
20418	Is it your wife, Miriam, and your boy?
20418	Is that all about Diable, Eric?
20418	Is that all?
20418	Is that in our honor?
20418	Is that the tribe?
20418	Is that true about the Indian kidnapping a woman?
20418	Is that true?
20418	Is that you, Eric?
20418	Is this Sunday?
20418	It is n''t so cold as-- as that, is it?

20418	Looks thin, does n''t he? 20418 Lots of confidential talks with her, I suppose?"
20418	Louis,I commanded, utterly out of patience,"what of Miriam?
20418	Louis,said I, trying to fathom the meaning of his wink,"are those Indians to come yet?"
20418	Mane it?
20418	Marry!--What?
20418	May I not come?
20418	Miriam, what has happened?
20418	Mr. Sutherland,I cried, with all the impatience of a child,"please tell me, where is your daughter?"
20418	My devil, or yours?
20418	No?
20418	No?
20418	Nor''-Wester, but what does that matter? 20418 Not a word for y''rself?"
20418	Not know what?
20418	Now, Louis, what do you mean by this nonsense?
20418	Now, how shall I pay you?
20418	O Uncle MacKenzie,said I with a wry face,"do you measure your own wine so?"
20418	Oh, is it only you? 20418 Only wisdom?"
20418	Out of your reckoning already?
20418	Out wid y''r nonsense, and what good are y''thinkin''ye''ll do--? 20418 Pay me?"
20418	Please see if they fit, Sir? 20418 Rufus,"he whispered softly,"where are they taking me?"

20418	We do n''t display our little amours----"No,broke in the other,"we just display our little contours and get snubbed, eh?"
20418	Well, Gillespie, when you take yours up, take mine along, too, will you? 20418 Well,"said I, with a laugh, which surprised the rascals mightily,"now you''ve captured your elephant, what do you propose to do with him?"
20418	Well?
20418	Well?
20418	Well?
20418	Were a few Nor''-Westers so successful in holding back the Metis at Seven Oaks, you''d like to see that experiment repeated?

20418	What are these carvings, may I inquire, Sir?

20418	What did this, Little Fellow?
20418	What did you say you had found?
20418	What do those mean, Little Fellow?
20418	What do ye say, mon? 20418 What do you know about Laplante?"

20418	Where is Gillespie?
20418	Where is Miriam? 20418 Where is Miriam?"
20418	Where to, Paul?

20418	Why did he say that?
20418	Why did you lie to them?
20418	Why do n''t you answer?
20418	Why else do I hide you in my tent? 20418 Why not leave them in the fort till things quiet down?"
20418	Why, Gillespie,called a voice,"what in the world are you doing here?"
20418	Why?
20418	Will he be back?
20418	With all the Indians of Red River in possession of that fort?
20418	With what?
20418	With you?
20418	Ye blunder- busticus, ye, what have ye been doing?
20418	Yes, do n''t you know you''ve been talking in torrents for the past ten minutes? 20418 Yes-- why?
20418	You are going for Miriam?
20418	You coming too?
20418	You got away too quick for them?
20418	You know I lie to you in the gorge?
20418	You know what that lie mean--and he hesitated--"mean to her-- to Miriam?"
20418	You, Gillespie?
20418	You? 20418 Your daughter is not at home?"
20418	_ Manus habent, et non palpabunt; pedes_----"Is Gillespie here?
20418	_ Similes illis fiant qui faciunt ea_----"Some one here before us?
20418	_ Us?_she asked.
20418	_ Voilà, Monsieur?_said the_ habitant_, which made four words for that day.
20418	***** Need I say what door opened, what hands drew me in and chafed life into the benumbed being?
20418	*****"How can I thank you for what you have done?"
20418	Am I going mad?
20418	Am I to believe that?"
20418	An''ye claver sic''nonsense when ye''re daft, what would ye say when ye''re sane?
20418	And did she flare back at me?
20418	And do you know, Rufus, I never could thank you all?
20418	And the Sioux did not eat you by inches, beginning with your thumbs?
20418	And the fellows''ve got to stretch their necks to come up to her ideas of what''s proper, that''s why she''s a stature, ai n''t it?
20418	And what else, indeed?
20418	And what were they decreeing?
20418	Are there any bleeding hearts in the bush?"
20418	Are they ahead?
20418	Are they with you?"
20418	Are we playing jest is earnest, or earnest is jest?"
20418	Are you getting the bench?"
20418	Are you mad?"
20418	Are you mad?"
20418	Besides, was I not returning to one who was peerless?

20418	Can any man blame me for breaking through the thicket and my resolution and discretion and all?
20418	Can you go as trader for your people?

20418	Carpe Diem!_""What is_ Carpe Diem_?"
20418	Could I foresee that simple act of mine was to let loose all the punishment the Hudson''s Bay had been heaping up against the day of judgment?

20418	Did Little Fellow doubt their word?
20418	Did Louis act from the love of acting and trickery and intrigue?
20418	Did she not bind the white woman?
20418	Did she not drag me over the ground like a dead stag?
20418	Did she not slay La Robe Noire?
20418	Did she not slay the white man before Monsieur''s eyes?
20418	Did the Nor''-Wester and I hesitate, and look from the man to the dagger, and from the dagger to the man; or is this an evil dream from a black past?
20418	Did you find out anything?"
20418	Did you find this--"indicating the spear handle--"there?"
20418	Did you hear anything special in the fort that night?"
20418	Did you see it?"
20418	Do I understand ye clearly, there''s no prisoners with ye?"
20418	Do n''t you know any of them?"
20418	Do you forget?"
20418	Do you hear any one calling for help?
20418	Do you hear anything?
20418	Do you hear the bells?
20418	Do you know, you baggage, that you are delaying this young man in a matter that is of life- and- death importance?
20418	Do you raise the tomahawk, or pipe of peace?
20418	Do you remember how you saved my life twice from the Sioux, Louis?"
20418	Do you think Father Holland would take''em up?"
20418	Do you think I stay here for nothing?
20418	Do you think I was old Cam''s private secretary for nothin''?
20418	Does the physician justify medical experiments on the criminal, or the sacrificial priest the driving of the scape- goat into the wilderness?
20418	Drunk is he?"
20418	Eh?
20418	For the Lord''s sake, boy, do you expect to find the woman by believing in that bloated bugaboo?"
20418	For the sake of the old days, Louis, help to undo the wrong you allowed?
20418	For them, what motive but to vindicate their bravery?
20418	For was it not written in my inner consciousness that destiny had appointed me to the wild, free life of the north?
20418	For what was he coming to Red River in this warlike fashion?
20418	Had I not dared all?
20418	Had I not read, or heard, of departed spirits hovering near loved ones?
20418	Had I, by some strange irony, been led to this spot that I might witness the death of my foe?
20418	Had I, too, lost grip of reality; or was she in distress calling for me?
20418	Had any one come and driven her to the city?
20418	Had he gone to keep secret guard over the priest, or to decoy the vigilant Sioux woman?
20418	Had he incriminated Diable to save himself?
20418	Had he lied?
20418	Had my jerk disturbed whatever it was and sent it rolling down to mid- current?
20418	Had not these men gone north young and full of hope, as I was going?
20418	Had she known of our efforts at all?
20418	Had we not more to fear from living?
20418	Had_ Monsieur_ examined the clearing between the house and the forest?
20418	Hamilton,"exclaimed Uncle Jack MacKenzie, who was facing Eric as I came up behind,"have you been in a race or a fight?"
20418	Hamilton?"
20418	Hamilton?"
20418	Hast Thou no pity?
20418	Hast Thou no pity?
20418	Have n''t I spent my life among them?
20418	Have you brought the tribe as you promised?"
20418	Have you more of that kind?"
20418	Here were close- fitted boards-- here, iron- lining-- this must be the gate; but where was the lantern that hung behind?
20418	How came it that I was in the woods slushing through damp mold up to my ankles in black ooze?
20418	How came it that a Catholic priest lay under a Protestant roof?
20418	How can I tell how long I hung there?
20418	How could we know he''d secure a land grant in the very heart of our domain?"
20418	How d''y''know we''re not here to warn ye about the fort?
20418	How did you get away?
20418	How did you know I was there?"
20418	How do I know?
20418	How far by the Beauport road?"
20418	How long since you left the Sioux?"
20418	How many men have made that vow regarding the woman they love?
20418	How many more half- breeds were beneath that cliff?
20418	How shall I pay you?"
20418	I ca n''t stand the sisterly business, Frances----""Have you suffered much from the sisterly?"
20418	I cried, exasperated with myself,"Where''s Fort Gibraltar?
20418	I exclaimed, rounding him back from the hill,"Ca n''t you stop this nonsense and sit still for only two days more, or must I tie you up?
20418	I run forward, I find Le Petit Garçon-- how you call him?--Leetle Fellow?
20418	I see where it ought to be, where the towers ought to be higher than that brush, but where''s the fort?"
20418	I thank you-- Father Holland-- is it not?
20418	If the Indians had such fear, why had this band camped within a mile of the pest tent?
20418	If the worst happened and I were captured, had I the courage to endure Indian tortures?
20418	If they wo n''t take our boats to the States, or Canada, what else can Nor''-Westers do?"
20418	Is it to be peace or war?
20418	Is it you or your ghost?"

20418	Is no this fine?
20418	Is that a child crying?"
20418	Is that woman Miriam?"
20418	Is the Indian less brave than the pale face?"
20418	Is this Thy pity?
20418	Joke-- ain''t it?"
20418	Lah Grawnd Deeahble,"and he mouthed over our mispronunciation of his own tongue"Joke, is n''t it?"
20418	Lord, boy, why did n''t ye stay with that peppery Scotchman?
20418	May it please Her Majesty to grant a token to her leal and devoted knight----""What is thy request?"
20418	Me hearty, but what was that?"
20418	Miriam, the guiltless, was suffering at his hands; should not he, the guilty, suffer at ours?
20418	Must not she do the same?
20418	My God, men, how can I tell you?
20418	Need I say the voice brought me to my feet at one leap?
20418	No-- no-- and we''ve been hunting house and garden for hours----""And the forest?"
20418	No?
20418	Noo, d''ye no hear the clack o''the geese through yon open window?"
20418	Now, Rufus, where are your men?
20418	Now, what was there in those replies to cause happiness?
20418	Now, who''s appointed to trade with the buffalo hunters but y''r very self?"
20418	Of course, I should have gone----""And would it have mended matters if you''d been held hostage too?"
20418	Pray, who is he?"
20418	Putting out his hand he said--"Is it all right with us again, Rufus, old man?"
20418	Quick, Miriam, will you try?"
20418	Raising his brows in question, Mr. Jack MacKenzie touched his forehead and whispered across to me--"Mad?"
20418	Say, babe, why do n''t y''r fill y''r hat with''em and put''em in her tent?"
20418	Say, great chief of the Mandanes, what is thy answer?"
20418	Shall I whistle for them?"
20418	Shall not a sparrow fall to the ground without Thy knowledge?
20418	Shall we be friends or enemies?
20418	She do n''t pay more attention to you than if you wuz a stump, that''s why she''s a statue, ai n''t it?
20418	She may be drown;"whispered Louis,"but we creep on, quiet like hare, no noise like deer, stiller than mountain cat, hist-- what that?"
20418	Should I make the final, desperate dash now?
20418	Should I wait to be smoked out of my hole, like a badger, or a raccoon?
20418	Simpleton-- you think Louis a fool?"
20418	Sounds funny in this desert, do n''t it?"
20418	Surely you do n''t treasure any grudge yet?"

20418	Tell us, what doth the Mandane offer for the blood of the young man?
20418	That post, too, might be destroyed; but where were Hamilton and Father Holland?
20418	That was true; for had not forty- eight hours passed since I had regained consciousness and I had heard neither her footsteps nor her voice?
20418	That''s the way of it, is it?"
20418	That''s why she''s a statute, ai n''t it?"
20418	The pulpit silenced-- though that''s a big contract-- mankind labeled, what for women?"
20418	The water''s shallow there----""What do_ you_ think?"
20418	Then, why had Diable rescued his betrayer?
20418	To the buffalo hunt first, then, south?
20418	Too well I read the signs and knew the summons; and what can love, or gratitude, do in the presence of that summons?
20418	Torture, burning, or the cool wash of a black wave gurgling over one''s head?
20418	Want them all, Eric?"
20418	Was I a part of the new happiness?
20418	Was Miriam within range of those smoke signals?
20418	Was he befooling the daughter of L''Aigle, or me?
20418	Was it a beaver, or my Indian pursuers?
20418	Was it old Cameron?"
20418	Was it the apprehension of fear, or the buzzing in my ears, that suggested the faint, far- away echo of a clamoring multitude?
20418	Was it the influence of this slip of a girl, I wonder, that a curious change came over our crews?
20418	Was it the wind, or a low sigh, or a silent weeping, that I heard?
20418	Was that the lad I had known?
20418	Was the Sioux squaw from the other lodge listening?
20418	Was the Sioux wife with her white slave really in the north country, or was she near, and did that explain my morose Iroquois''all- night vigils?
20418	Was the apparition in the Mandane lodge some portent?
20418	Was the fellow really delirious?
20418	Was the man spying on me?
20418	Was the policy, that ended so tragically a year afterwards, adopted at this meeting?
20418	Was there smoke of battle?
20418	Was this Miriam?
20418	Was this Miriam?
20418	Was this an illusion, or was I, too, going mad?
20418	Was this the end of that long career of evil?
20418	Was this the_ avant- courier_ of the Hudson''s Bay, delayed, like ourselves, by the storm?
20418	Watched?
20418	We had befooled Louis into a betrayal of his associates but how much reliance could be placed on that betrayal?

20418	We had had a victory; but how long would it last?
20418	Well then, why the deuce did n''t you go, and knock the head off anything that opposed you?"
