12422By the by, E----, how do you think Berkshire county farmers would relish labouring hard all day upon_ two meals_ of Indian corn or hominy?
12422By this time, what do you think of the moralities, as well as the amenities, of slave life?
12422Can you conceive a more wretched picture than that which it exhibits of the conditions under which these women live?
12422Did I tell you of that poor old decrepid creature Dorcas, who came to beg some sugar of me the other day?
12422Did you ever read( but I am sure you never did, and no more did I), an epic poem on fresh- water fish?
12422Did your parson never tell you that your conscience was for yourself and not for your neighbours, Israel?''
12422Do n''t you think one might accept the rattlesnakes, or perhaps indeed the slavery, for the sake of the green peas?
12422Does not that sound very like the very best sort of free pride, the pride of character, the honourable pride of honesty, integrity, and fidelity?

12422Have you visions now of well- to- do farmers with comfortable homesteads, decent habits, industrious, intelligent, cheerful, and thrifty?

12422I asked how they could be expected to know it?
12422I make no comment; what need, or can I add, to such stories?
12422I say, I am a free person, Mary-- do you know that?''
12422I was rather dismayed at the promptness of this reply, and hesitated a little at my next question,''Who is your father?''
12422I wonder if my mere narration can make your blood boil, as the facts did mine?
12422I, of course, went on with''whose Molly?''
12422Is not that a peculiar poetical proposition?
12422K----?''
12422K----?''
12422K----?''
12422Moreover, born and bred in America, how should he care or wish to help it?

12422Was not that striking from such a poor old ignorant crone?
12422Well may you, or any other Northern Abolitionist, consider this a heaven- forsaken region,--why?
12422What would one of your Yankee farmers say to such abodes?
12422Where shall any mass of men be found with power of character and mind sufficient to bear up against such a weight of prejudice?
12422Who, on such estates as these, shall witness to any act of tyranny or barbarity, however atrocious?
12422Would you take the one with the other?
12422how can he help it all?
12422or''Why do you believe such trash; do n''t you know the niggers are all d----d liars?''
12422said I,''what is that?''
12422saying as she took up my watch from the table and looked at it,''Ah?
12422shouted in an imperious scream, is the civillest mode of apostrophising those at a distance from them; more frequently it is''You niggar, you hear?
12422that greets me whichever way I turn, makes me long to stop my ears now; for what can I say or do any more for them?
12422vous dirai- je, maman?''
12422we coloured people eat it, missis;''said I,''Why do you say we coloured people?''
12422what can she do for these poor people, where I who am supposed to own them can do nothing?
12422what for me wish to be free?

19648Pap, do you reckon I''m fool enough to traipse down to Gullettsville an''mix with them people, wearin''cloze like these? 19648 Shall I tell you the truth, Miss Jane?"

19648Why should I be frightened? 19648 Why should_ I_ be mad, Miss Sis?
19648Why, Sis, how_ kin_ I?

19648BUT why should the tender dreams of this pure heart be transcribed here?
19648But what of the news that Sis had given to the winds?
19648Did n''t you say you wanted to see me on business?"
19648Do n''t you think the weather is nice?"
19648Do you reckon I''m fool enough to make myself the laughin''-stock for them folks?"

19648Has Miss Sis ever married?"
19648Have you forgot Rose Gaither, Jack?"
19648He could meet rage with rage, and give blow for blow, but how was he to deal with the reserve by which he was surrounded?
19648He was neighbourly; who more so?
19648He''s a- gitting high up in the law, and where''ll you find a better managed plantation than his''n?"
19648How come dis?

19648Maybe you do n''t know that nigger, Brother Brannum?"
19648None to jine me?
19648Oh, why did n''t he stop?"
19648Once, after Sis had nestled up against Teague, she asked somewhat irrelevantly--"Pap, do you reckon Mr. Woodward was a revenue spy after all?"
19648Puss''s preacher?"
19648She repeated her question--"Are you Blue Dave, the runaway?"
19648She seized Teague by the arm--"Pap, have you been to Atlanta?"
19648She up an''says, says she--"''Is Mizzers Bivins in?''
19648Teague had never seen her so excited,"Why, what''s the matter, Sis?"
19648That''s what they useter say-- usen''t they, Mingo?"
19648Then he looked curiously at Kitty, and said--"Honey, how come you gwine do dis?
19648Then there''s Giner''l Bledser; who more nimble at a muster than the Giner''l?
19648Then, after a little pause, she asked,"Is David driving?"
19648Was it one of these sky- scrapers?
19648Watching for Mr. George to go by?"

15872I know my cousin has whispered something to you of me; my situation, my nature-- is it not so?"
15872I learned you at the plucking of that arrow from the cotton bale-- in your strange, wild garb; but never mind-- what were you going to say?"
15872I promised; when he extended his hand, and, grasping mine, asked:''Is this our last parting, or shall I see you to- morrow?''
15872I want to know, by the eternal gods, if a senator in this house-- this here body-- is to be threatened in this here way?
15872I wonder how many''s history I am writing now?
15872If I have kept thy counsels, and walked by their wisdom, hast thou approved, my mother?
15872If for him there is not a future, why were the instincts of his nature given?
15872If in sincerity we invoke God''s mercy, can the means that prompt the heart''s devotion, reliance, and love, be wrong?
15872If these results have followed the institution of African slavery, can it be inhuman and sinful?
15872If they worship God in sincerity, you say that is all?"
15872If this is all he is ever to know, does this complete a destiny for use?
15872If you have not, will they not hunt us away again, as you have?
15872In what battle were they ever defeated?
15872Is it instinctive?
15872Is it maidenly that I should?
15872Is it not all a mystery-- strange, strange, incomprehensible, and unnatural?
15872Is it not as reasonable to believe we lived before our birth into this, as to hope we shall live after death in another world?
15872Is it not rather an evidence that the Creator so designed?
15872Is it not strange that woman will confide to the strange man, what she will not to the kindred woman?
15872Is it that youth has no apprehensions, and we enjoy its anticipations and its present without alloy?
15872Is it the alchemist who always turns the sweets of youth to the sours of age?
15872Is it the blood, the rearing, or the religion of these people which makes them what they are?
15872Is it the leaves and trees, or sheaves Of yellow, ripened grain, Which wake to me, in memory, My boyhood''s days again?
15872Is it the mind which remembers, and is the mind the soul?
15872Is it this which makes such models of children and Christians in the educated Creole population of Louisiana?
15872Is not his measure full?
15872Is not this an attribute of greatness-- to be natural?
15872Is not this an honest confession?
15872Is she permitted, in her new being, to come at will, and breathe to my mind holy thoughts and holy feelings?
15872Is she up among these gems of heaven?
15872Is she yonder in the mighty Jupiter, looking down, and smiling at me?
15872Is the belief alone the Indian''s?
15872Is the flame first kindled burning still?
15872Is there one, whose years have brought increase of happiness, and who has lived on without a sorrow?
15872Is this cruel and sinful-- or the silent, mysterious operation of the laws of nature?
15872Is this hope the instinct of the coming, or does it grow from the baser instinct of love for the miserable life we have?
15872Is this natural?
15872Is this natural?
15872It is easy to ask, but who shall answer?
15872It said:"What did you leave me for?
15872Jefferson?"
15872Lamar, and his brother Mirabeau B. Lamar, Eugenius Nesbit, Walter T. Colquitt, and Eli S. Shorter?
15872Mathews, turning upon his back, asked,"To whom do I owe my life?"
15872May be you bring de ole man more dan one dar?"
15872Mr. Grymes, vat am I to do?"
15872Must the surviving spirit have Its memories of time and grief?
15872My wonder was, whence come all these people?
15872Now, wa''n''t that great?"
15872Order, sir; is my motion in order, sir?"
15872Senators?
15872Shall I, when purified by death, go to her?
15872Shall it forget the all of time, When time''s with all her uses gone, And be a babe in that new clime?
15872Shall we have your company?
15872Shall we return?
15872She gazed intently; could it be?
15872Sheriff?"
15872Should he, like this man, come to love the solitude and silence of the wilderness, and find companionship only with his traps and guns?
15872The ladies were in their night- clothes; but what will not woman do to aid the distressed, especially in the hour of peril?
15872The work was begun and was rapidly progressing; but now, when and by whom will this great, glorious garden be made?
15872Then the father of bride stepped up to the side of his daughter, when the groom said to the bride:"Wilt thou have me for thy husband?"
15872Then what is due from me to you?
15872Then what is life to age?
15872Then why fear?
15872Then why should he fear?
15872Then, is time his all?
15872There, now I am done-- don''t you think me very foolish?"
15872These means were to be devised, by whom?
15872They are but earth now-- and why am I here?
15872This is her last day; and to how many countless thousands is it the last day of life?
15872To him death is nothing: the brave defy death-- the good fear it not; then why should he fear?
15872To trace in the planetary system divine wisdom, and divine power; to see and know the same in the mite which floats in the sunbeam?
15872Was he as happy?
15872Was it not natural?
15872Was not this worship pure?
15872Was that what General Jackson fit the battle of New Orleans for, down yonder in old Chemut''s field?
15872Was the element of fire and the material for clothing given for any but man''s use?
15872We sat together long hours, and talked of the past-- alternately, as their memories floated up, asking each other,"Where is this one?
15872Well, sir, what order shall I take?
15872Were you not surprised to see that I could write?"
15872What are they?
15872What are we to do with missions?
15872What chase was ever unsuccessful over which they presided?
15872What do you do with this case, gentlemen?"
15872What has Burr left?
15872What has he not seen?
15872What is it to- day?
15872What is to be the consequence?
15872What is your faith?"
15872What was his design as manifested in his nature?
15872When did a father rob his children of their homes?
15872When did a father wash his hands in his children''s blood?
15872When they had approached within ten paces, Brashear stopped and said,"Are you ready?"
15872When were they known to be worn out with fatigue-- with hardship, hunger or thirst, heat or cold, either on land or water?
15872Where is he going?"
15872Where is the provision for him in the Bible?
15872Who can count the number of scalps which they brought from distant expeditions?
15872Who can resist him then?
15872Who can say it is not the true faith?"
15872Who can tell what to- morrow may bring forth?
15872Who deserves it more?
15872Who ever could stem as they the rushing current of the Father of rivers?
15872Who has a friend on whom he can rely, and who will not, to gratify his own ambition, sacrifice him?
15872Who knows, except the dead?
15872Who says it is mean to love the land, to keep in our hearts these graves, as we keep the Great Spirit?
15872Who that has lived seventy years will not attest this from his own life''s experience?
15872Why did he leave his own and come to take the red man''s?
15872Why have you cut your hair and beard?
15872Why is it deemed that there shall be no communication between the living and the dead?
15872Why is my summons delayed so long?
15872Why is this so?
15872Why she not come wid you?
15872Why the power to learn so much?
15872Why this indiscretion?"
15872Why this question, which implies a doubt of the goodness of God?
15872Why?
15872Will a century hence find one of the red race upon this continent?
15872Will he ever forget the speaking of the beaming features of that beautiful creature, when she lifted her head and looked into his face?
15872Will her heart ask:"Shall I ever meet him again?"
15872Will she dream of the dark beard, curled and flowing-- of the darker eye which looked and spoke?
15872Would the wild energies of these bow to such control, or yield such obedience from restraint or love?
15872You are gentle and kind, are you not?
15872You are not yet strong, and your weakness I have made weaker, because I have disturbed the fountain of your heart and brought up painful memories?"
15872You not want somebody to turn de squirrel for you?
15872You see it so with the white man; shall we not learn from him, and be like him?"
15872You tell me the traditions of the people who worshipped here say that this was a cardinal law unto them?"
15872and did it stretch on to contemplate the ruin and desolation which overspreads it now?
15872and do the memories of time die with time?
15872and do you recall their after lives?
15872and is not this insult to manliness, and a vile mockery to the feelings of men?
15872and shall this hope become a reality, and endure forever?
15872and this?"
15872and was all this grand creation of the earth, and all things therein, made to subserve him for so mean a purpose?
15872and was n''t I laughed out of the house, sir?
15872and will the wild story of the western wilderness come in the silent darkness of her chamber, and make her nestle closer to her pillow?
15872asked her eyes; and he looked:"Who are you; and where is your home, beautiful being, so strangely and so unexpectedly met?"
15872how will it be with you?
15872if so, for what?
15872is this reality, or am I dreaming?"
15872or an acquired faculty?
15872or does its_ all_ belong to love and joy when life and the world is new?
15872or have you taken it?
15872or is here the end of all; here, this little tenement?
15872or is it the instinct of race, the consequence of a purer and more sublimated nature from the blue blood of the exalted upon earth?
15872or is the soul independent of the mind, surviving the mind''s extinction?
15872or went it with life to the great first cause?
15872or, Do these pursue beyond the grave?
15872or, shall this accursed rabidness be purged away with death, and he become a tone in accord with inanimate things?
15872sa._?"
15872said I,''are you sure-- very sure?''
15872said he,"Alick, not gone yet?
15872said he,"you have found this old hermit, have you?
15872see you into my heart, here by your gravestone, to- night?
15872shall the heathen go to heaven?
15872that is it, is it?
15872that you bid us take it from you, and go back, and make a new home where the fathers of our fathers sleep in death?
15872the grave, the secrets of the grave, are they hidden there for ages, or shall they survive as treasures for eternity?
15872the heart, the heart-- what are all its joys of youth, and all its griefs of age?
15872what of this?
15872what would I not give to see him again?''"

17178Do you know him?
17178Do you really, daughter?
17178Do you think he would take advantage of a helpless man?
17178Do you think he would trifle with the affections of a young girl?
17178Do you think so, Mis''Lithicum?
17178Do you think this is a proper place to settle such a matter?
17178Do you want the gruel? 17178 Do you want to go up now?"

17178Have I made any mistake?
17178Have n''t you got a pistol?
17178Have you sent fer a doctor?
17178He intimated that_ that_ would keep him from marrying you? 17178 Heer I am, Sally; what did he say?"
17178Heer you are; which door, back or front?

17178Howdy, Marthy?
17178Hush, Frank; hain''t you got no manners?
17178I came to ask you to drive to the camp- ground with me,he said, as her hand slid out of his;"will you go?"
17178I reckon, Miss Harriet, you hain''t heerd frum Toot sence I seed you?
17178I''ll do no sech a thing; do you reckon I want''er to scratch my eyes out? 17178 I''m unarmed,"said he;"I never carry a pistol; is that the way you do your fighting?"
17178If I go,he said,"will you come?
17178Is he asleep?
17178Is it a order?
17178Is n''t it pretty risky for her to go with him so much?
17178Is yore ma coming in here?
17178It do n''t look much like it, does it?
17178It''s really good,he said, as she filled the spoon the second time,"I had no idea I was so hungry; you say you made it?"
17178John Westerfelt, what''s got into you?
17178Left you?
17178Mad-- at her?
17178May I ask what you intend to do with me?
17178May I?
17178Me? 17178 Me?"
17178Men,cried the leader,"thar''s a serious disagreement; we''ve always listened to Jim Hunter; what must we do about the matter under dispute?"
17178Miss Harriet, is yore ma needin''any more eggs now? 17178 Mother, can you do without my help at supper?
17178Mother, what are you talking about?
17178Mr. Westerfelt, are you_ crazy_? 17178 Mr. Westerfelt,"shrinking from him,"do-- do you mean to insult me?"
17178No, I thank you, not to- day,he said, coldly;"how did you like the preacher?"
17178No; she''s busy in the kitchen; do you want to see her?
17178No; why?
17178Oh, Mr. Westerfelt, do you?
17178Oh, Peter, what is it?
17178Oh, do you, Harriet?
17178On your honor?
17178Part''em, men; what are you about?
17178Sally, whar have you started?
17178Shall I see you out there?
17178She is dead?
17178So you refused Bates?
17178So you see now that I''d better go back to the stable, do n''t you?
17178Sorry for you-- why?
17178Sweethearts?
17178The left hand road leads to town, I believe?
17178Then I shall come about two o''clock?
17178Then there is-- is no doubt about it?
17178Then what were you speaking of?
17178Then you acknowledge he is a coward, and yet you-- my God, what sort of a creature_ are_ you?
17178Then you ai n''t engaged to him,_ are_ you, Harriet?
17178Thirsty?
17178This girl he was with to- night, has she father or brothers?
17178Wambush?
17178Want me to go back wid yer, Marse John?
17178Wash?
17178We must be goin''purty soon,said Jennie;"my gracious, what is the matter with them people; had n''t we better go hunt''em?"
17178Well, I did n''t, so what does it matter?
17178Well, Sally did n''t shorely try to do that afoot, did she?
17178Well, what has happened?
17178Well, what if I am, mother?
17178Well, you told him you was going with Bascom Bates, did n''t you?
17178Well,said Bradley,"are you through with John?
17178Well,said Slogan, with a short, gurgling laugh,"what''s wrong with that?
17178Were you not leaving simply to-- to get away from the--(oh, I do n''t know how to say it)--the-- because you did not want to be near me?
17178Whar is that d----d livery man?

17178What in the dev-- what do you mean, Marthy?
17178What in the name o''goodness do you reckon she''s goin''to do?

17178What is it, darling?
17178What is it?
17178What is the matter, Slogan?
17178What must I do about it?
17178What on earth are you waiting for?
17178What on earth is the matter with that man?
17178What shall I get for your breakfast?
17178What sort of a man is he, Luke?
17178What would you like for breakfast?
17178What''s Toot gwine to do?
17178What''s all this for?
17178What''s that to me?
17178What''s the matter, Harriet?
17178What''s the matter, daughter? 17178 What''s the matter?"
17178What''s the matter?
17178What''s the matter?
17178What''s the matter?
17178What''s up?
17178What-- what do you mean by that, Harriet?
17178When?
17178Where are you going?
17178Where did you meet him and when?
17178Where on earth have you been? 17178 Where''s the matches?
17178Which away?
17178Who is she, anyway?
17178Who''s it on?
17178Who''s thar?
17178Who''s the young lady?
17178Why cayn''t we fetch the dinner in heer an''not have to sit on the damp ground?
17178Why did you come to-- to see me, Hettie?
17178Why did you let him stand there?
17178Why did you think so?
17178Why do n''t he take off his hat?
17178Why do you say_ I''m his girl_?
17178Why should I? 17178 Why, Harriet, what on_ earth_ do you mean?"
17178Why, he said they''d ketched the men right whar you left''em, an''--"Well, what of that?
17178Why, mother, where did she spend the night?
17178Why, what is the matter, dear?
17178Why,she exclaimed,"I-- I thought you''d gone; what are you comin''in the back way fer?"
17178Why?
17178Will you dance it with me?
17178Will you do it outside, then?
17178Will you git down, or do you want to be drug off like a saddle?
17178Wo n''t you come in?
17178Would he have told you if he had thought you would give him away?
17178Would he?
17178Yes, of course, but--"Well, what of it? 17178 You are not going back to that room over the stable, are you?"
17178You are not going to get up?
17178You are, really?
17178You came to see me?
17178You hear me, mother? 17178 You met him?"
17178You never heard me say I would, did you?
17178You saw them in his new buggy, Uncle Peter,she asked,"taking a ride-- are you sure?"
17178You think it would be best for me to go?
17178You think women can reform men then?
17178You think, then, Luke,said Westerfelt,"that a good woman-- a real good woman-- could love twice in-- in a short space of time?"
17178You took her home?
17178You would not, Harriet?
17178You''ll stay, then?
17178You''ve settled yore man''s hash; what more do you want? 17178 ''Do you call that a M?'' 17178 ''I ca n''t, fer the life o''me, think uv one soul you know whose name begins with a M.''''M,''sez she,''who said that was a letter M? 17178 ''What''d you ax that fer, Brother Tim?'' 17178 ''Who said a word about Brother Mitchell?'' 17178 And how could he stand that-- he, whose ideal of woman and woman''s constancy had always been so high? 17178 And why? 17178 Answer me; what about him?
17178Any passengers?"
17178Anything gone wrong?"
17178Are you a raving maniac?
17178Are you fellers goin''back on me?"
17178Are you gwine to hold a court an''try''i m by law?"
17178Are you?"
17178Are-- are you sure?"
17178Bill Washburn''lowed he had orders from you not to let me have anything out''n yore shebang; is that so?"
17178But what''s the talk?"
17178But you know I love you just the same as if you was my own child, do n''t you?"
17178Can I see her to- night?"
17178Cayn''t you manage to git it off?''
17178Could she have told Bates of her old love for Wambush, and had he-- even he-- decided not to marry her?
17178Dawson?"
17178Did you ever know it was me that helped get him away from the revenue men the night he had a barrel o''whiskey on his wagon?"
17178Did you find her-- did you find Miss Harriet?"
17178Did you know that he wus a sort of a ring- leader amongst''em?"
17178Do n''t you reckon it was so that He could make us feel just like we do now?"
17178Do you hear?
17178Do you know I had my eye on you an''her to- night?"
17178Do you know her conduct this morning has set me to thinking?
17178Do you know it ai n''t a bit unlikely that she helped him play that trick somehow?
17178Do you reckon she''s dangerous, Peter?"
17178Do you reckon"( she was avoiding Harriet''s eyes)--"do you think that would make any difference with Toot-- I mean, with any young man?"
17178Do you think he would, daughter?"
17178Do you want me to give''em to John Westerfelt?''
17178Do you want to be hung?"
17178Do you want to burn the roof over our heads?
17178For a moment no one spoke, then the same voice asked:"Who wus your pa, young man?"
17178Had she accepted Bates?
17178Harriet looked at her in surprise for an instant, then she answered:"Why, Hettie, how could I know?
17178Harriet stared wonderingly at her mother; then she said:"Did she want to help us again?"
17178He heard Washburn open the office door and ask:"What do you folks want?"
17178He leaned over the dash- board and impatiently called out to old Wambush:"How long are they going to keep us?"
17178He shrank back; how was he to reply to such a pointed question?
17178He was about to pass by when the storekeeper signalled to him and called out:"Mail fer you, Mr. Westerfelt; want me to fetch it out?"
17178How are you and him makin''out, Harriet?"
17178How did he happen to be here?"
17178Hunter?"
17178Hunter?"
17178I do n''t reckon you hardly remember when he come heer last, do you?
17178I reckon that was just jealousy, and that showed he cared for me; do n''t you think so, mother?"
17178I told mother yesterday that I thought you might suspect--""Your mother knows then?"
17178I wonder if I really told her I loved her?"
17178Is she a- comin''back heer?''
17178Is she_ yours_?
17178Mighty bad news down the creek, ai n''t it?"
17178Mother talked straight to him about flirting with you, and told him what a good, nice girl you were, and--""Oh, did she, Harriet?
17178Oh, Harriet, I''ve tried so hard to forget him and overcome my--""What about him?
17178Oh, Mr. Westerfelt, was that what you''ve been thinking all this time?"
17178Oh, my child, what is the matter?
17178On the first had been worked a big red letter"P"and on the other a capital"C.""Did you ever?"
17178Sally, are you a- listenin''to me?"
17178Seen anything of them?"
17178That pin- scratch?"
17178Then Hunter turned to the leader:"What d''ye think ortter be done with a man like that?
17178Then I thought about Brother Mitchell''s name beginnin''with a M, an''so I said, sez I,''So you want me to give''em to Brother Mitchell, do you?''
17178There was a long silence, and then the lawyer spoke again:"What do you say?
17178Wambush objected mightily to being jailed, did n''t he?"
17178Was it not a way God had of punishing him, and would there ever be any end to it?
17178Was she about to tell him frankly of her love for Wambush?
17178Washburn?"
17178Westerfelt caught the eye of his partner, and asked:"Who is the fellow with the hat on?"
17178Westerfelt was silent for a moment, then he said:"How do you know I do n''t care for her?"
17178Westerfelt?"
17178Westerfelt?"
17178Westerfelt?"
17178Westerfelt?"
17178Westerfelt?"
17178Westerfelt?"
17178Westerfelt?"
17178Whar on earth are you bound fer?"
17178What could be keeping them so long?
17178What could be keeping them?
17178What did you do to her this evening?
17178What do you mean?"
17178What do you reckon ails him?"
17178What do you say?"
17178What do you- uns mean by bein''in the business ef you cayn''t send out a load oftener''n this?
17178What has gone wrong?"
17178What have you been saying to her?
17178What time do you want to rise in the mornin''?"
17178What was--?
17178What''ll you have, Joseph?"
17178What''s the matter?"
17178What''s the password?"
17178What''s the use a- jabberin''any longer?"
17178Why are you so devilish grum?"
17178Will you follow me?
17178Will you take some?"
17178Wo n''t you take a seat?"
17178Would she not, even if he won and married Harriet, pursue and taunt him with the girl''s old love, as she had Clem Dill?
17178You fellers is afeerd o''yore shadders; what does the gang mean by sendin''out sech white- livered chaps?"
17178You know you are as good as anybody else, so what is the good of worrying?
17178You''ve heerd the motion; is thar a second?"
17178asked Jennie, her eyes on the receding couple; then she glanced at Westerfelt, and added, with a little giggle,"What''s the matter with_ you_?"
17178exclaimed the old woman;"what on earth did you run away from him so sudden for?"
17178he groaned;"why do n''t I_ know_ it was accident?
17178how was that?"
17178replied Westerfelt, greatly relieved,"Whyn''t you git down an''fight it out while we''re waitin''?"
17178what did they intend to do with him?"
17178what''s that?"
55189After that, while you were abroad together, were you always in terror like this?
55189An''if I do n''t tell nothin''you ai n''t disposed on, Marse Neil, honey?
55189And Alden does not guess that this is he?
55189And did you believe her guilty?
55189And he died?
55189And if this friend should fail you?
55189And the driver brought you all this way and did not enlighten you?
55189And these letters?
55189And when these laws conflict, I presume you would wish to obey the latter? 55189 Are you able to trust Miss Claxton''s goodness against all evidence to the contrary, or are you not?
55189Are you aware,began Alden,"that the other negro apprehended for this murder is being protected by his late owner upon the same grounds?
55189Are you not willing to give her the benefit of the presumption?
55189Are you sure he got the letter?
55189Are you sure of that, sir?
55189But how can you be sure this sick man will not do the thing you dread?
55189But how was she so certain that he was innocent?
55189But how,asked Alden,"did Beardsley come to the house without observation?
55189But if my fears are the result of my own imagination, why should any place be better?
55189But the father?
55189But truth-- justice? 55189 But you will have some theory about them?"
55189Can I do you no service?
55189Can he be Beardsley, masquerading as a Southerner?
55189Can you be sure that he made no attempt to enter the house that evening?
55189Can you manage to go alone? 55189 Could you not send Mr. Alden down to the Cove on some pretence?
55189Could you swear to it in a court of justice?
55189Could''Dolphus give Alden any information of moment?
55189Courthope?
55189DEAR MR. CHARLTON BEARDSLEY: I am sorry indeed to hear that your health has been too greatly strained by spiritual exercises and( may I not say?) 55189 Did they suppose Beardsley to be jealous?"
55189Did you have my message sent from Hilyard?
55189Did you meet the constables?
55189Did you only say it to make me feel angry?
55189Did you reckon him wandering?
55189Do I?
55189Do n''t you see which is the genuine one?
55189Do you agree with me that my wife''s are genuine?
55189Do you know of anyone who has these initials?
55189Do you know who it was that killed your parents?
55189Do you mean the man called Charlton Beardsley?
55189Do you mean to say you would rather not hear what the man said? 55189 Do you recognize it?"
55189Do you suppose, then, that my wife is the author of these Beardsley forgeries?
55189Do you think Adam did it, Mr. Durgan? 55189 Do you think I have been so terribly wicked to keep this secret?"
55189Do you think he could possibly have gone out and done it in his trance, and never known his own guilt?
55189Do you think my wife, or any other woman, would voluntarily live in daily terror of being killed by such a madman as you describe?
55189Do you think so?
55189Do you think there is no risk?
55189Do you wish to hurt this good lady by making her real name known here, where she wishes it to be concealed?
55189Does that matter?
55189Drivah, what is this light?
55189Evidence?
55189For me?
55189For protection?
55189Go on with what, suh?
55189Guessed what?
55189Had you ever anything to do with people who believe that the dead can return to speak to us, or appear to us?
55189Has that cursed nigger not told me the truth?
55189Have they friends?
55189Have you allowed anyone else to know of this suspicion of yours? 55189 Have you any evidence concerning his former character?"
55189Have you any reason to suppose he did?
55189Have you believed this all these years?
55189Have you ever had the least reason to suppose that another person capable of these crimes lurked upon Deer?
55189Have you got a looking- glass?
55189Have you never seen him between then and now?
55189Have you no folks?
55189Have you no money to get yourself comforts?
55189Have you seen letters with no writing on them before?
55189He can help us no further?
55189He could hardly have done that?
55189Hermione,cried Alden again,"why did you conceal this man''s guilt from me at the time, and why do you still wish to conceal it?"
55189Hermione,said Alden,"you can not believe this story?
55189How can I alter it?
55189How can I help it, Mr. Durgan? 55189 How can you say that my sister did such things as this?
55189How can you speak to me like this?
55189How can you taunt me that way? 55189 How can your father be alive?
55189How could I speak to anyone without causing suspicion? 55189 How could you talk of it being good to kill anyone?"
55189How did he find you?
55189How do you know she confessed?
55189How do you know?
55189How long will''Dolphus live?
55189How old are you?
55189How should he? 55189 If Alden sent a detective to the office where it was received, I wonder if he could find out who sent it?"
55189If I swear to you that I never thought anyone else was near us, or on the mountain, will that satisfy you?
55189In Heaven''s name, what motive have you for seeking this man''s freedom? 55189 In spite of whatever he may tell you?"
55189In the name of God, Hermione,he cried solemnly,"why do you shield this man?
55189Is it likely that if anyone took the trouble to give a wrong address, they would leave any clew to their whereabouts?
55189Is it the money young Godson aspires to?
55189Is that true? 55189 Is there no adequate motive that you can suggest?"
55189Is there no hotel that I can sleep in to- night?
55189Is there reason to assume this third person unknown? 55189 Is this some plan of your arranging?"
55189Is this the top of the mountain, drivah? 55189 It is easy to be wise after the event,"said Durgan; and then he asked:"What are you going to do now?"
55189It is for Miss Bertha''s sake you wish to do this?
55189It sometimes does her good to have a right down long ride, does n''t it, Mr. Durgan? 55189 May I ask if you have heard anything to my disadvantage?"
55189May I ask why you made this assumption?
55189May I tell you all I know? 55189 Me, for instance?
55189Might that not be a matter of opinion?
55189Miss Claxton, are you willing to tell me all you know about Charlton Beardsley?
55189Mr. Durgan, are you still quite sure? 55189 My dear Miss Bertha, you can not possibly have anything to do with this sad affair?"
55189No one else-- else than----?
55189Now, in the name of Heaven,he cried,"what do you fear?
55189Of what?
55189Of what?
55189Oh, Adam, I do n''t know any better than your preacher; but I can tell you something that I suppose----"Yes, Marse Neil?
55189On what possible ground can you believe this of your sister?
55189Perhaps,he said,"he asked you to bring a message to Mr. Alden or Miss Smith?"
55189Say we make it fifty?
55189Serve her? 55189 She has cried till the pain in her head is anguish-- and who can possibly be coming?"
55189She is fanciful, then?
55189Sir, what is there to trouble him? 55189 So,"continued Durgan,"to come to the point; what do you suppose this intercepted message means?"
55189Suppose, merely for the sake of argument, that I had reason to suspect he did, can you deny it?
55189Tell me first, Mr. Durgan, what you made out, and what you think this telegram has to do with it?
55189Tell me, then-- on what grounds have you formed this belief?
55189Tell me-- do you know? 55189 That you''d like to see justice done-- all round, sir?"
55189The boy came from Beardsley?
55189The doctor ca n''t make a guess, then, as to how long Claxton may live? 55189 The negro is really dying, I suppose?"
55189Then why were you afraid of my blanket?
55189Then you_ could_ not see him?
55189There were two, then?
55189This mulatto calling himself''Dolphus is certainly the boy?
55189Was he a wicked man?
55189Was it the Blounts who told you about him?
55189Was that all?
55189Well?
55189What are you doing here?
55189What are you doing here?
55189What are you saying?
55189What could they mean?
55189What did they know about the boy?
55189What did you do?
55189What do you mean by endorsing such foolish words?
55189What do you mean?
55189What do you think he meant by''knowing a better game''?
55189What do you think of these letters?
55189What has Alden been doing?
55189What is it?
55189What is your name?
55189What motive have you for protecting him? 55189 What of these other letters you still have in your hand?"
55189What part of it?
55189What reason have you to assume that what he said is true?
55189What sort of venom did you fear?
55189What things?
55189What was the address?
55189What were you saying?
55189What''s that?
55189What''s the meaning of this?
55189What''s the name of this mountain?
55189Where has he been?
55189Who are you, sir? 55189 Who was the boy?"
55189Who?
55189Whom did your father belong to?
55189Why choose me to interfere?
55189Why did you say it?
55189Why do n''t you get up?
55189Why do you include me? 55189 Why do you want to see him?"
55189Why should a pore nigger know anythin''''bout such lettahs? 55189 Why to me?"
55189Why-- if Miss Claxton does not wish it? 55189 Why_ this_ evening?"
55189Will you do what I am going to ask?
55189Will you pardon a word of warning?
55189Yes, but_ who_ is the victim?
55189Yes-- but then, how was it_ he_ knew_ me_?
55189Yes; I have seen them passing-- men with blue eyes and rather spiritual faces-- father gray, son light brown?
55189You are quite sure it was the yellow boy who did it? 55189 You could not have expected him to speak on this subject; and you never had any connection with our trouble?
55189You did not tell Alden this?
55189You do n''t know? 55189 You feel convinced that this knowledge was only shared by these two?"
55189You had his answer?
55189You heard this a year ago and no suspicion of Beardsley entered your mind?
55189You saw Adam-- had they''Dolphus, too?
55189You would say, then, that they are not fanciful or-- eccentric in any way?
55189After a moment''s pause it occurred to him to ask simply--"What is your sister frightened of-- I mean at different times?
55189After another pause, he said:"You were so good as to ask me the other day for advice; will you take an old man''s advice now and go home to bed?
55189After listening to a long chronicle of his humbler neighbors, Durgan held out his pipe for a moment, and said casually--"And the Northern ladies?"
55189Alden paused suddenly, and demanded of the sisters:"You remember hearing of the incident?"
55189Alden?"
55189Am I to believe that, in spite of all this, he was your lover?"
55189And could it be that neither sister had confessed to Alden that the criminal had some sinister hold over them?
55189And if he were, do you understand that he must have killed the other man?"
55189And what else could I desire but justice?"
55189And you-- have you been obeying him?"
55189Are the servants out?
55189Are you afraid of me?"
55189Are you afraid to leave it to Him?
55189Are you anchoriting?"
55189Are you aware that, before her father''s death, Hermione Claxton had consented to marry me?
55189Are you not excited?
55189Bertha had more than once referred to her; and what was it the raving mulatto had said?
55189But even if you did, what would happen?
55189But how can we tell that there is any mind governing the universe?"
55189But then, was not such influence in such a man too strange to be possible, too like a cheap novel to be true?
55189But why should not these two forms of fiction be blended?
55189But, in that case, why was she more at ease when riding than at home, and why did she betray fear of some danger close at hand?
55189Ca n''t you sleep?"
55189Can you conceive that a son-- a man who knew the world, could slur over such vice, such perfidy, in a parent?"
55189Can you only recognize the thrill of events when they are printed in a vulgar journal?"
55189Can you think I have not sought to believe otherwise?"
55189Chapter XXI OPENING THE PAST"Are you sure of what you tell me?"
55189Chapter XXVI A TORTURED CONSCIENCE"Did you see the prisoners?"
55189D''you think so, suh?"
55189Dear Mr. Durgan, could n''t you do this for Hermie''s sake?
55189Did I not see her even quarrel with our dear father about this man because he had pretended to give messages from mother?"
55189Did he remember exactly the place in which he waited?
55189Did you believe this at the time of the trial?"
55189Did your sister tell you in plain words that she committed this deed?"
55189Do I not know?
55189Do n''t you see I am trusting you with the secret of my interference?
55189Do you know all that was put in the newspapers about us-- about the trial?"
55189Do you know why this boy threatens me, reproaches me, challenges me?"
55189Do you not know that I have loved you-- you only?
55189Do you not understand at all?
55189Do you suppose that the money and advice he expects to receive are all in the air, or how?"
55189Do you think I do not know the heart, the life, of my sister?
55189Do you think it wicked?"
55189Do you think poor Adam is not made of the same flesh as you are?
55189Do you understand?"
55189Do you understand?"
55189Durgan spoke roughly, but in himself he said:"Alas, who was responsible for this creature, sly and soulless?
55189Durgan?"
55189Durgan?"
55189Durgan?"
55189Durgan?"
55189Every face we met would have been full of suspicion, and-- surely it is right to shun morbid conditions?"
55189Far off there was hint of a sound, the hoofs of several horses, perhaps-- a ring, faint and far, of a bridle chain?
55189Had Bertha met with some accident, and was this her escort home?
55189Had he any reason for endeavoring to mislead you?"
55189Has your friend turned in for the night?"
55189Have you any idea of what I am going to tell you?"
55189He is manly and handsome----""But?"
55189He longed to ask,"Why do you assume that this''Dolphus will not expose the criminal you have suffered so much to hide?"
55189He looked the boy up and down, and then he said,''Do you want to earn a hundred dollars?''
55189He was called a mesmerist, too-- do you believe that one man''s will could possess another person, and make that person do-- well, any wicked thing?"
55189He was only a messenger-- a servant of that man who was raising spirits in dark rooms and making them give messages and----""You mean Beardsley?"
55189Herbert, is it not clear now why I should have kept my secret from you, if your conscience is such that you can concede no mercy to a criminal?
55189Hermione?"
55189How can this pore child know your mind, suh?"
55189How can you believe a man who is a murderer?"
55189How could I speak to her when I thought her only chance of continued health lay in forgetting?
55189How could I?
55189How could you?
55189How did he convince you that he could throw no light on the whereabouts of the missing boy?
55189How long had he rested?
55189How much less could Alden forgive?
55189How should it?
55189How''s this for a good Durgan nigger?"
55189How?"
55189I ask you, sir, what does this man mean by turning me out at a mica mine?
55189I have come to-- have you not heard?"
55189I now ask you, would you have advised me to send this telegram without further information?
55189I suppose-- I suppose, Mr. Durgan, that''Dolphus did kill poor Eve?
55189I think that was all that I took to be a direct reference to you, Miss Claxton; but what I thought most needful to tell Alden----""Yes?"
55189If her spirit had now passed to plead at the bar of some great judgment- hall, on whose head must the doom of her transgressions fall?
55189If they were written in Beardsley''s interest, why did he not write them himself?
55189If you are not safe from unruly fears, why roam where you invite them?
55189If you have only seen one thing, how can you appreciate the difference between that and another?
55189In a moment she exclaimed, in a voice of tears,"What does God care?
55189Indeed, Mr. Durgan, who can have thought on this problem as I have done?
55189Is Bertha there?''
55189Is it my fault that a spiritually minded man has given me the sympathy which you can not even understand?
55189Is it possible that I could be mistaken in her character?"
55189Is it some murderous spectre of whom you stand in dread?"
55189Is n''t that gospel truth, Marse Neil, suh?"
55189Is not that about what you feel, too?"
55189Is she like him?"
55189Is this Bear Mountain?
55189Is this the house?"
55189Is you so ignorant, chil'', as not to know that it''s a heap an''a lot wus to read these letters than the sort as has writin''all ovah?"
55189Is you sure o''that, honey?
55189It came to you freshly the other night; after thinking it over, are you still quite sure?"
55189It can not be possible that, at that same time, you contracted a friendship-- shall I say an affection?--for this man?
55189It would seem better, of course, if we could all three die to- night; but in that case, why have we lived to meet again?
55189Marse Neil, suh; d''you think my pore gal''s in de bad place?
55189May I ask if you came to guess it solely from those letters which this unhappy pair opened; or did any other circumstance----?"
55189May I ask you, Mr. Durgan, if you have had any corroboration of the idea that this note came from Beardsley, either from him or from your wife?"
55189May I tell you what he said to me, Miss Claxton?"
55189My father said,''Can you hold your tongue and help me, and I''ll make a gentleman of you?
55189No; there must be some way out, because Hermie has prayed so much-- prayer must make some difference, do n''t you think?"
55189Oh, Adam, it''s a powerful hangin''crime; an''if you''s cotched in this business, what''ll come to me?"
55189Oh, how could you call yourself a gentleman and betray me so?"
55189On what pretext should Bertha seek to deceive so good a friend as Alden?
55189Shall I wake Adam to help you home?"
55189Shall we read on?"
55189She gave an inarticulate sound of terrified joy, a moan of heart- rending joy-- or was it terror?
55189She had done all this for the sake of-- what?
55189She had evidently kept this paltry note among her own papers until recently-- why?
55189She whispered eagerly:"Will it do if I swear now that I believe I was mistaken-- that I knew nothing, or, at least, no proof to the contrary?"
55189She_ knew_, and if she knew that anyone else had committed the deed, why not tell and exonerate the boy?"
55189So you wo n''t go for to tell him it is n''t hangin'', will you, marsa, honey, suh?"
55189Surely you must know if he is a wicked man?"
55189Tell me, have you talked it over with a single soul?"
55189The address of Mrs. Durgan is----?"
55189The answer to Durgan''s question,"Why I?"
55189The one was true to the core, the other false; but how to prove it?
55189The spirits, I understood, sometimes spoke through Mrs. Durgan and sent messages to him----""She said they did?"
55189Then my father came to the door and whispered through,''Hermione, are you alone?
55189Then why were you afraid?"
55189Then-- ah, what was that sound?
55189They were coming from Hilyard; were they coming further than the village?
55189This is her writing, is it not?"
55189Was he bad or good?"
55189Was it possible that Beardsley had some mysterious power over both women such as a magician or modern hypnotist is said to use?
55189Was it to incriminate Charlton Beardsley or to exculpate him?
55189Was this motive strong enough to be worked upon?
55189Were the horsemen coming for some purpose quite unknown to him, bearing on the mystery of the summit house?
55189What bribe, what threat could move a condemned man who was but a waif in the world, and need care for none but himself?
55189What chance had she to have in her nerve or fibre that could vibrate to any sense of good?
55189What could have brought him here?
55189What could make her certain but one thing?
55189What could seem more mad than all this?
55189What did he say was in the note?"
55189What do you mean by saying''yes''?"
55189What do you mean?
55189What does he mean?"
55189What else could?
55189What exactly was it that happened to our letters to- night?"
55189What is the matter?
55189What more did he say?"
55189What possible motive could they have had for concealment?
55189What secret of yours can they contain?"
55189What''s that?"
55189When he was riding down the mountain road again he called out, on passing the mine:"Oh, Neil Durgan-- say-- why did you leave those quarters?
55189When you believed it, too, what word could I have said to you that would not have made it your duty to hunt him down?
55189Where did he go then?
55189Where had he gone when he left the sisters?
55189Which''ull it be, sir?"
55189Who can tell the sweetness that the flame of distant pine- woods lends?
55189Who else could be there?
55189Who gave that heart of hope but the God of whom you speak?
55189Who has made you believe it?"
55189Who sent him, and who concealed him?
55189Who taught the little soul the courage to trust and pray?
55189Who was this boy who could so vanish?
55189Who-- who is it?"
55189Whom do you suppose to be guilty?"
55189Why did he wait?
55189Why did you deceive me?"
55189Why do you not cry?"
55189Why do you still wish to shield him?
55189Why had these particular letters been kept?
55189Why hide these letters?
55189Why is this man kept under your wife''s roof?"
55189Why not continue to conceal the fact that he had been half a furlong beyond all natural earshot of the woman''s death?
55189Why should not the art of George Eliot or Mr. Meredith be wedded to the thrilling action and absorbing mystery of Anthony Hope and Sir A. Conan Doyle?
55189Why should you ask?"
55189Would you sacrifice us to a fetish you call''justice,''pretending it is God?
55189You are sure that he did not come or go from the house in that time?"
55189You urge me to tell you-- will you accept my confession in confidence?
55189You''s not in earnest, suh?"
55189can you not imagine my father''s wild grief and anger against the fellow that, as he would think, had caused him to do it?
55189cried Bertha, the energy of a long distress in her tone,"for my sake, can you not help us to understand?
55189cried Durgan;"where are you going?"
55189what could it be-- like a gasp or sigh, far away or near?
55189who can know that better than I?"
18461A pigeon- wing?
18461A right nice boy, is he, Mother Bunker?
18461A stream in an ocean? 18461 A telegraph?"
18461Ai n''t he, Parker?
18461And cut fingers and bumps?
18461And has you fixed it dat way for me? 18461 And have you no friends here?"
18461And is n''t there any croup about it?
18461And on the gold pieces?
18461And what does he want here in our house, Margy?
18461And why do they eat blubber?
18461And-- and does it have banks?
18461Annie,said Aunt Jo quickly, before the girl could go,"how does Alexis act toward this boy?"
18461Are n''t afraid, are you, Russ?
18461Are sharks good to eat?
18461Are we going to stop?
18461Are we really going to sail out of sight of land, Daddy?
18461Are you made of rubber?
18461Are you sure you can rescue us, Russ?
18461Are you sure? 18461 Aw, Rose, what you talking about?"
18461But do you s''pose he''ll ever want to come back to the place where everybody called him''Sneezer''?
18461But how can a stream-- that means a river-- be running in the ocean? 18461 But how did William catch the croup through a broken window in the neu- ral- gi- a?"
18461But how long shall we have to stay here?
18461But she has got other folks, has n''t she?
18461But suppose we get flung off?
18461But where could he have gone?
18461Ca n''t we go down and see Alexis?
18461Ca n''t we help that schooner?
18461Ca n''t you count us? 18461 Can I go out on deck again for a while?"
18461Can you cut a pigeon wing?
18461Can you see his teeth and his claws and his fur and his tail?
18461Did Alexis come home?
18461Did he go in there?
18461Did he go into that hole, Vi?
18461Did n''t he have any better name?
18461Did n''t you just say I''d''better not say bet?''
18461Did you ever see anything so cute?
18461Do n''t Aunt Jo ever have it warm in her house-- like it is at home?
18461Do n''t you see him below the stone?
18461Do n''t you think he''d better be killed, Officer?
18461Do n''t your mother have''em?
18461Do the steampipes hum down South?
18461Do they eat''em?
18461Do they have dogs at sea to hunt for lost children-- dogs like Alexis?
18461Do they have feathers? 18461 Do they?
18461Do those flags say she is sinking?
18461Do what?
18461Do you all give it up?
18461Do you believe it is only a lady and not a ha''nt, Russ?
18461Do you know the difference between a dog and an elephant?
18461Do you know which is back?
18461Do you know? 18461 Do you mind telling me who this new friend of yours is, and where he is, and why he must be fed?"
18461Do you suppose he''s hungry?
18461Do you suppose they went home some other way?
18461Do you think so?
18461Do you, Mun Bun?
18461Do-- do diseases have to grow up, too?
18461Do-- do you suppose he''ll want to bite us?
18461Does a fox live in that hole?
18461Does what have banks?
18461Does your Uncle Sam wear a tall hat and red- and- white striped pants with straps under the bootsoles and stars on his vest?
18461For make- believe ice ca n''t be so wet and cold as real ice, can it?
18461Friends? 18461 Going to mail it in the ocean?"
18461Had I better say before so many little pop- eyed, curious folk? 18461 Has he got all over being drowned?"
18461Has you come to see how I is? 18461 Have those men got goats on that wabbly schooner?"
18461Have you seen him?
18461He is in the Navy?
18461He is n''t as big as Aunt Jo''s Alexis, is he, Margy?
18461He is n''t dead, is he?
18461He is stealing his passage, then?
18461How can a dog have a trunk when his nose is short and blunt? 18461 How can a house burn up?
18461How can we?
18461How can you joke, Charles?
18461How can you?
18461How come you try to do it that way, Russ Bunker?
18461How could an eagle hiss? 18461 How do you know it ca n''t?"
18461How do you know, it is?
18461How do you suppose I can attend to a dozen different things at once, Violet, and answer your questions, too?
18461How you going to do it?
18461I can crawl into that hole----"Is n''t it too small?
18461I guess Aunt Jo never showed us all of it, did she, Russ?
18461If Vi goes, ca n''t I go too?
18461If he does n''t, what matter? 18461 If he lives in Maine, do you s''pose he will ever find his way back?"
18461If that''s a rubber plant, Russ,he demanded,"where''s the rubbers?
18461If you have little girls, and one was only half a little girl,said Rose,"she would be worse off than a mermaid, would n''t she?"
18461Is I made of rubber? 18461 Is dey to play with, or is dey to eat?
18461Is he a soldier, or a policeman?
18461Is it a shooting star?
18461Is it like candy?
18461Is n''t he a good old dog?
18461Is n''t it a fire, then, that we hear?
18461Is n''t that fire beyond the cabins, Russ?
18461Is that a fish?
18461Is that a fox?
18461Is that a riddle?
18461Is that li''le boy got into the branch?
18461Is that the way you ketches catfish up Norf?
18461Is this yere a celebration or is it a parade? 18461 Is-- isn''t your mammy here at home?"
18461It''s just like a riddle----"What is?
18461Making more of those signs to set up at the burned house?
18461Me, Ma''am? 18461 Not even tell Muvver?"
18461Not unless it is a riddle:''How did William get the croup?''
18461Now, what do you suppose is the matter with her?
18461Now, you see, Russ Bunker?
18461Of course he did n''t go ashore again?
18461Oh, is she mean to you?
18461Oh, would you?
18461S''posing they do n''t teach those languages where you go to school, Mun Bun?
18461Say, Russ, why do n''t the steampipes hum any more?
18461Say, is it going to keep right on bleeding, Mother?
18461See the lumps of ice, Russ? 18461 Shall I run get a candle?"
18461Shall we really go down South with Daddy? 18461 Sharks?"
18461So how could it be a Christmas tree if there were n''t any candles?
18461Stays flat?
18461Supposing it should be a blizzard, Rose Bunker?
18461The Gulf Stream?
18461The quarters?
18461Then how could they be castaways?
18461Then how do you know when you come to the Gulf Stream?
18461Then you are going?
18461Then you thought that you ought not to keep the secret from me?
18461Those flags?
18461To Grandma Bell? 18461 To fix the furnace?"
18461Upstairs?
18461Very true, why not?
18461Very well; what is the difference between an elephant and a dog, Laddie?
18461Was he a cullud boy?
18461Was he only as big as I am?
18461Was that the way of it?
18461We ca n''t lose all that, can we?
18461We''ll stop both ends up and then-- and then----"Well, what then?
18461Well, if he had what would you have done?
18461Well, we''re not at home, are we?
18461Well, well, young man, what''s this?
18461Well,said the oldest of the six little Bunkers, puffing very much,"I can try, ca n''t I?
18461Were we talking about-- about blizzards?
18461What Mistah Armatage gwine to say now? 18461 What are sea- dogs?"
18461What are you doing in that dog''s kennel?
18461What are you going to do with him, Rose?
18461What are you talking about?
18461What can she mean?
18461What can you see through that thing?
18461What dat in dere?
18461What did I tell you?
18461What do these tots mean?
18461What do they do?
18461What do they feed''em?
18461What do you call that figure?
18461What do you expect to see, Rose?
18461What do you mean?
18461What do you s''pose Mr. Armatage will say?
18461What do you see?
18461What do you think of that?
18461What do you think?
18461What do you think?
18461What do you want? 18461 What do you want?"
18461What does that mean?
18461What for?
18461What for?
18461What is biting him? 18461 What is happening?"
18461What is it that''s so easy to catch but nobody runs after?
18461What is it, Laddie?
18461What is it, then?
18461What is it?
18461What is it?
18461What is it?
18461What is it?
18461What is n''t polite?
18461What is that mast with the wires up there for, Russ?
18461What is that?
18461What is the matter with you, Frane?
18461What is the matter, Laddie?
18461What is the news, Charles?
18461What looks like a boy, but bounces like a rubber ball? 18461 What made them shine?"
18461What shall we do, then?
18461What sort of wing has no feathers on it? 18461 What wings?"
18461What would n''t?
18461What would you have done, Russ, if that big cat had got into the house with you and Rose?
18461What yo''want, little boy?
18461What you going to make your make- believe ice out of, Russ?
18461What you standin''there idle for? 18461 What''s blubber, anyway?"
18461What''s dat? 18461 What''s dat?"
18461What''s dem?
18461What''s that?
18461What''s that?
18461What''s what?
18461What''s''fidgets''?
18461When we get ashore, do you mean, Russ?
18461Where are those children?
18461Where can there be a house in that direction?
18461Where is it?
18461Where is the tree?
18461Where is your house?
18461Where should we find him?
18461Where will you get any ice?
18461Where''s the fox?
18461Where''s your boat?
18461Which is ganders and which is gooseys, Margy?
18461Who cares anything about your old riddle? 18461 Who is going to be the rescuer?"
18461Who is it that you are asking your riddle about?
18461Who would n''t be? 18461 Who''s gone down?
18461Who''s shootin''?
18461Why do n''t they go out?
18461Why not?
18461Why not?
18461Why not?
18461Why not?
18461Why not?
18461Why not?
18461Why wo n''t he?
18461Why, Russ,he said,"what does this mean?
18461Why, Russ,said he,"have n''t you gone to bed yet?"
18461Why?
18461Will it hold you?
18461Will that be awful hard to do, Laddie?
18461Will they take the men off that ship into our small boats? 18461 Wonder if we could feed him?"
18461Writing?
18461Yo''please tell me, Ma''am, all about dat boy dese children say was in Boston? 18461 Yo''sure she ai n''t goin''to send for no policeman, little boy?"
18461You do n''t expect to see humming birds in winter, do you, Margy?
18461You know a catfish, do n''t you? 18461 You know when they took us to the Sportsman''s Show last week at Mechanic''s Hall?
18461You mean deck, do n''t you, Mother?
18461You reckon you''ll find him?
18461You would n''t like goats if they butted you, would you?
18461You-- you do n''t do much of anything, do you?
18461''Less I puts''em up de spout?"
18461''What is it that''s so easy to catch but nobody runs after?''"
18461An eagle like those on top of the flagstaffs?"
18461And Mun Bun added again:"We do n''t want him in here, do we, Margy?"
18461And he said, would I keep still about it?
18461And how were they to do that?
18461And if it was a ghost, a ghost is nothing but air, and how could air have such a voice as that?"
18461And to Aunt Jo?"
18461And what do you suppose Russ did?
18461Are n''t you scared?"
18461At Hallowe''en?
18461But it seems a long time ago, does n''t it, Charley?"
18461But-- but-- you says you writ dem letters to Sneezer?"
18461Ca n''t I give it to him?"
18461Could n''t he, Miss Phil?"
18461Cut Sneezer''s pigeon wing?"
18461Do n''t you remember about that Eskimo igloo that they had built of ice in the middle of the skating pond?
18461Do n''t you remember that bat we caught that time?
18461Do n''t you remember the coyote caught in the trap that you thought was a dog?"
18461Do n''t you remember,"said Russ,"how big the North American continent is in the geography?"
18461Do n''t you think so?"
18461Do n''t you think you can be of help to him, Jo?"
18461Do they, now, Mother?"
18461Do you hear?"
18461Do you know how high the bulwarks are?
18461Do you live in Boston?"
18461Do you think you can do it and save Mun Bun and Margy from getting a scolding?"
18461Do you want to send a message by wireless?"
18461Does it?"
18461Down Souf dey axes you is you hongry?
18461Had he not instantly made friends with Sam, the strange colored boy, at Aunt Jo''s house?
18461Has he finished his dinner, Annie?"
18461Has something bitten you?"
18461Hear''em, Rose?
18461His lips moved and the children knew he asked:"What yo''want of me, child''en?"
18461How could that be?
18461How do you suppose we can sleep?"
18461I guess I can make a_ good_ riddle out of that, ca n''t I?"
18461I wonder if he is sick and is hiding it from Mother and Daddy?"
18461I wonder if we keep on growing if the ratio will remain the same?"
18461I wonder why?"
18461If we can heal his wounds, we will set him free again-- hey, little folks?"
18461Is n''t it, Russ?
18461Is n''t that a fine riddle?"
18461Is that it?"
18461Let me see the fish, will you, please?"
18461Mosquitoes?"
18461Now, why was that, do you suppose?
18461Officer?"
18461Or do n''t they fly?
18461Rose cried out when she saw the little ones so mussed up and with tear- stained faces,"what has happened to you?"
18461Russ demanded:"What''s the matter with you?
18461Russ knew what"ratio"meant, and he asked:"How can it keep that way if we grow to be seven little Bunkers?
18461Russ saw that he was in fun, but he was curious enough to ask the smaller boy:"Do you and the girls go to school?"
18461She said to Laddie, who was looking on at the puzzle making:"Do you know how William did it, Laddie?"
18461Suppose the corner of the section had cut Mun Bun''s head?"
18461They do n''t in the Pineville school, do they, Russ?"
18461Vi, looking on at one of her brother''s attempts, asked:"Does n''t it hurt the pigeon to cut its wing?"
18461Want to come?"
18461Want to see?"
18461Want to?"
18461Was there something or somebody there?
18461We ca n''t play on the ocean, can we?"
18461Wha''s he gone down to?"
18461Whar''d I get friends?"
18461What are you doing down here?"
18461What are you doing here?"
18461What are you doing here?"
18461What do you think of that?"
18461What do you want to do about it now?"
18461What is it?"
18461What is it?"
18461What is the answer?"
18461What part of it is rubber?"
18461What should he do about it?
18461What will you lil''w''ite childern be up to next, I''m a- wondering?"
18461What''s holding you?"
18461What''s that?"
18461When we dress up in sheets and things?"
18461Where are you going?"
18461Where do you suppose the summer seas are?"
18461Who ever heard of an eagle eating pound cake with raisins and citron in it?
18461Who showed you?"
18461Why carry it with us?"
18461Why is it?"
18461Wo n''t that be glorious?"
18461Would the_ Kammerboy_ get past so swiftly that the sea- eagle could not reach it?
18461Would you like to live in a lighthouse?"
18461Would you, Russ?"
18461You''member that wigwam, Russ?"
18461You''re cold and hungry, are n''t you?"
18461almost wailed Rose,"you would n''t go into those woods?
18461are n''t you going to bed to- night?"
18461cried Rose,"you do n''t suppose that Sam can dance just like your Sneezer?"
18461did you find him?"
18461ejaculated the colored boy again,"what yo''child''en s''pose I do wid dem t''ings?
18461exclaimed Mammy June, from the doorway of her cabin,"whar''s yo''manners?
18461exclaimed Margy,"do you want to play at fixing this Christmas tree, or do n''t you?"
18461gasped Vi,"how can you do that?"
18461he cried,"what you childern doin''in dat dog kennel?"
18461is that a riddle?"
18461said Daddy,"do you think your brother should tell you everything he knows or does?"
18461she cried,"can your boy read newspaper print?"
18461there is n''t another fire, is there?"
18461who is all dese lil''white children?"
26429''Brer Rabbit, is you sho''she dead?'' 26429 ''Brer Tarrypin, how de name er goodness does you git um?''

6056Are you afraid your investment in this bank is not a safe one?
6056Are you already worried over business?
6056Are you going to church this morning?
6056Are you going to get married?
6056Are you joking?
6056Are you_ sure?_ That''s what I want to know.
6056As far as I know the-- women of my family have--"Have what? 6056 Awful about Mr. Mostyn, ai n''t it?"
6056Besides, I shall write you, if-- if you will let me?
6056Busy just now?
6056But are n''t the women going to- night?
6056But my father?
6056But the subject,Mostyn urged her,"what is it?"
6056But, of course,Saunders flung out, tentatively,"you will not remain away long?"
6056Ca n''t you come up here? 6056 Ca n''t you tell by the way they stare and blink, like scared rabbits?
6056Can that actually be me?
6056Congratulate me? 6056 Could n''t you go to the bank with me?"
6056Dick, what has happened?
6056Did any mail come for me on the noon train?
6056Did n''t you hear what Dolly-- what your teacher said?
6056Did you ever in your life think of such a thing?
6056Did you hear that?
6056Did you want to see me?
6056Do I look like a fool? 6056 Do n''t you think a drive in the open air would do you good?"
6056Do you believe in omens?
6056Do you know that people who harbor such ideas generally go insane?
6056Do you know what you''ll do in another minute? 6056 Do you know where Irene is?"
6056Do you really mean it?
6056Do you reckon he went and told it? 6056 Do you see them?"
6056Do you think I care a snap what you like or do n''t like? 6056 Do you think I''m crazy?"
6056Do you think an operation will be necessary?
6056Do you think so?
6056Do you think so?
6056Do you think so?
6056Do you think that''s it?
6056Do you think you ought to entertain such fine- spun ideas in regard to him when-- when he is living as he is?
6056Do you want Daddy to rock you to sleep?
6056Do? 6056 Does she still actually love him, and will not this trouble and his presence here unite them again?
6056Dolly, what is the matter? 6056 Dolly,"he said,"what is it-- what is wrong?"
6056For instance?
6056George? 6056 Got anything to eat?"
6056Got the mate to that?
6056Guess who had me on the''phone?
6056Has Dolly got home from school?
6056Has Dolly told you about Cross& Mayhew?
6056Has Mr. Mitchell had his supper?
6056Has Saunders come down yet?
6056Has anything gone wrong?
6056Have n''t I promised you not to think of Andy in-- in any serious way?
6056Have women the right to vote?''
6056Have you just got home?
6056Have you read the morning papers?
6056Have you taken his temperature?
6056Have you--"Oh, me?
6056He is getting to be a great lover of nature, is n''t he? 6056 He speaks of my business head; what would he think of the investment I have just made?
6056How are you, Dolly?
6056How are you, Miss Stella?
6056How are you, brother?
6056How are you?
6056How can I help it?
6056How could I know?
6056How could it?
6056How did you happen to know that?
6056How did you happen to-- to get it?
6056How did you manage to stay out of the fold among so many religious people?
6056How do y- all come on?
6056How do you think the baby is now?
6056How is Robby now, Tobe?
6056How is Robby?
6056How is that?
6056How long has he had fever?
6056How much do those things cost?
6056How was that?
6056How_ could_ she have?
6056I did n''t expect at the time to have you going so constantly with a man that--"Oh, you did n''t?
6056I hardly think so, unless-- Say, why could n''t you get in and go over home with me? 6056 I made the one great mistake of my life when I-- you know what I mean, Saunders?"
6056I presume it will be some time before the consultation?
6056I reckon she told you that I am sorter strikin''out on a new line?
6056I suppose it''s the old complaint?
6056I suppose you heard of that silly duck fit of mine?
6056I suppose you''ve seen the morning paper?
6056I suppose your father got back?
6056I? 6056 I?
6056Is he at home?
6056Is it really so-- so serious as that?
6056Is n''t it queer?
6056Is n''t it simply awful?
6056Is that anything new?
6056Is that you, Dolly?
6056Is the boy-- is-- he worse?
6056Is the meeting to be public?
6056Is the operation over?
6056Is there anything I can do to help you?
6056Is there anything I can do?
6056Is there something in the paper about him?
6056Is this my last word with him?
6056Is your father at home?
6056Lady with you, sir?
6056Looks like ham gravy, do n''t it?
6056Make a speech? 6056 Mama and papa said I must call you''Uncle Dick,''but you are not my really,_ really_ uncle, are you?"
6056Marry? 6056 Match?"
6056Me? 6056 Me?
6056Me?
6056Mine? 6056 Mine?"
6056Mitchell thinks I am a financial wonder, does he? 6056 My God, does she still care for him?"
6056My friend?
6056My-- my relations?
6056News,she said, with the eagerness of a child, as he pulled upward on the strap,"for me?"
6056No; what is it?
6056No; where has she gone?
6056Now you will sleep, wo n''t you?
6056Now, now can you see?
6056Oh, God, is it actually to be?
6056Oh, how are you?
6056Oh, is n''t it splendid-- splendid?
6056Oh, is that so?
6056Oh, is that you?
6056Oh, really, is it possible?
6056Oh, will you, Daddy, will you?
6056Oh, you do?
6056Oh, you do?
6056Oh,_ is n''t_ it lovely?
6056Oh,_ is_ you? 6056 Only_ one_ of them,"he repeated, with a sudden guilty start--"what do you mean?"
6056Perhaps it is n''t, but what does it matter?
6056Play? 6056 Ruin you?"
6056Run down?
6056Shall I see you again before you go back?
6056Shall you be in Atlanta again this summer?
6056She has no curiosity at all to know how-- how my marriage terminated?
6056So Dick declared himself?
6056So he''s lying down, is he?
6056So that''s got out already?
6056So you are here at last?
6056So you have come_ here_ to devil him, have you?
6056So you really are going?
6056Something about your child?
6056Such a serious step would seem funny in me, would n''t it? 6056 Surely not about-- about me and Irene?"
6056Take a drink? 6056 The way she is acting?"
6056Then from what you say I gather that she does n''t mention me?
6056Then you wo n''t oblige me?
6056They are both well, I believe?
6056Think they are goin''to swarm?
6056This is Mr. Mostyn, ai n''t it?
6056Uncle John, you know Gid is a moonshiner, do n''t you?
6056Uncle John,she faltered,"I want you to-- to tell me what he comes to see father so often about?"
6056Was it something serious?
6056Was it-- was it wise for us to arrive like this-- in the same cab?
6056Was n''t you sitting on the porch of the store?
6056Well, then, what is the matter?
6056Well, what is it, then?
6056Well, what luck have you had with your speech?
6056Well, you know, I presume, that his uncle left him a lot of money when he died the other day?
6056Well,she ejaculated,"when are you going to make a real clean breast of it?"
6056Whar''s your bucket?
6056What ails him?
6056What am I to do?
6056What are these people living for-- what, after all?
6056What are you beating about the bush for? 6056 What are you driving at?"
6056What are you fixing up so for, Miss Sally- Lou?
6056What are you thinking about?
6056What can be done? 6056 What caused this?"
6056What do you mean by mentioning_ me_ in that sort of connection?
6056What do you mean?
6056What do you mean?
6056What do you mean?
6056What do you propose?
6056What do you think I ought to do?
6056What do you think?
6056What do you want, Dolly?
6056What does she want?
6056What has happened?
6056What has this to do with his affairs?
6056What have you been doing to yourself?
6056What have you got to do just now?
6056What is Dick crying about?
6056What is it now?
6056What is it, Dolly?
6056What is it, dear?
6056What is it? 6056 What is it?"
6056What is it?
6056What is it?
6056What is it?
6056What is it?
6056What is that road, Marie?
6056What is that?
6056What is that?
6056What is the matter, Dick?
6056What is the matter, George?
6056What is the matter?
6056What is the use of talking about that, Marie?
6056What is the use to talk more of it?
6056What is the use?
6056What is this I hear Of your club- meeting to- night?
6056What is wrong?
6056What made you think so?
6056What man has n''t?
6056What more success could a man want than he gets? 6056 What sort o''cloth are you goin''to use in your waist?"
6056What sort of subjects does your society take up?
6056What the hell''s the matter with you?
6056What time do you all begin your meetin''to- night?
6056What time do you have luncheon?
6056What was it, Dolly?
6056What was she telephoning you about?
6056What was the matter?
6056What were you wondering, Dolly?
6056What will be the end?
6056What would be your price?
6056What you have found out?
6056What''s the trouble here?
6056What''s wrong now?
6056What''s wrong now?
6056When I get to sleep what are you going to do with me?
6056When do you leave?
6056When is he coming?
6056When will the letter reach him?
6056When will you ever drop that? 6056 When?
6056Where does it hurt most when I press down?
6056Where does it hurt you?
6056Where have you been all day?
6056Where is Irene?
6056Who did they ketch?
6056Who is it?
6056Who is that father is talking to, Uncle John?
6056Who is that man?
6056Who knows? 6056 Who told you you could be out o''school, young feller?"
6056Whose place was it?
6056Why ca n''t we come to an agreement? 6056 Why did n''t I say what I want to say?
6056Why did n''t you send for the doctor?
6056Why did you come, Dick?
6056Why did you-- do that?
6056Why do n''t you go out and play with the balance an''limber yourself up?
6056Why do n''t you throw it over and be done with it?
6056Why do you ask?
6056Why have you not worn it before?
6056Why not?
6056Why should you say_ if_ I will let you? 6056 Why, Tobe, what is the matter?
6056Why, what are you doing away out here?
6056Why, what has happened?
6056Why-- why,he faltered, his little lips puckered sympathetically,"what is the matter?"
6056Wo n''t you come into the waiting- room and take a seat?
6056Wo n''t you get down and come in a moment?
6056Wo n''t you take a seat?
6056Wo n''t you take a smoke before you turn in?
6056Would you advise--he began, hesitatingly,"would you advise me to return to Atlanta to- morrow-- on-- on account of this silly thing?"
6056Yes, I want to know if your wife has written or telegraphed you since she got to Knoxville?
6056You ca n''t mean that he''s ever gone so-- so far as actually to speak of me in-- in connection with his daughter?
6056You do n''t mean, Dick, that he really, really loves me?
6056You do n''t say?
6056You have it?
6056You have seen the Warner farm, have n''t you?
6056You heard me blowin'', did n''t you?
6056You heard what I said, did n''t you?
6056You make it as an offer?
6056You mean Dolly?
6056You mean that she saw me kiss you?
6056You say you did?
6056You say you do?
6056You say-- you-- heard?
6056You see that?
6056You see, you--"Did n''t like it? 6056 You want to know his pedigree?"
6056You were not expecting to see this mountain greenhorn down here, were you?
6056You will stop eating trash, wo n''t you, Dick?
6056You-- you give it to me?
6056Your fears?
6056Your sister and Drake, how are they?
6056_ Ought_ it to be? 6056 After all, had any man the right to inflict an ordeal of that sort upon an unsuspecting child? 6056 Am I the scum of creation all at once? 6056 And as for Ann, do you know you did me a wonderful favor in regard to her?
6056And when they are alone together, as they will be in a few minutes on the road, what more natural than that he should caress her?
6056Ann cried, her begrimed fingers clutching at Dolly''s arm,"what does it mean?
6056Are you blind?
6056Are you in a big hurry?"
6056Being what she already was, what would not opportunity, travel, higher environment bring to her?
6056Buckton?"
6056But could he possibly do such a thing?
6056But what sort of start appealed to you?
6056But what was the use?
6056But when are you going back home?"
6056But why think of that when the other thing hung like a sinister pall above him?
6056But, say, Dick"--she was eying his face with slow curiosity--"what is the matter?
6056Can I urge him to come-- will it be possible for me sincerely to pen the words which may seal my doom?
6056Can this be the beginning of my end?"
6056Could n''t we go together?"
6056Could n''t you be here then?"
6056Could that harsh semblance of a man be himself?
6056Could this full- blown rose of young womanhood, this startling beauty, be the slip of a timid girl he had so lightly treated three years ago?
6056Did Providence, Fate, or whatever the ruling force was, intend this as his crowning punishment?
6056Did n''t you make me what I am?
6056Did the doctor say there was no-- no hope?"
6056Did you ever hear tell of the Tom Collins gag?"
6056Did you ever in all your life hear of bigger fools?
6056Did you know that?
6056Did you run across him?"
6056Do n''t you know-- can''t you see?
6056Do you get at my meaning, sir?"
6056Do you know I did n''t sleep more than an hour last night?"
6056Do you know everybody is laughing over your interest in Dick Mostyn?
6056Do you know if he gets your stock that he will hold a larger interest than mine?"
6056Do you know the sort of election the women will hold, Warren, if they ever get a chance?"
6056Do you know what I think, Jarvis?
6056Do you know what I tried to see you about the other day when I was there?
6056Do you know what is at the bottom of it all?
6056Do you know what that''s meant for?
6056Do you know, Mr. Saunders, the queerest thing to me in all the world is that I am Dolly Drake?
6056Do you know, that poor woman has had nothing but sorrow as her portion all her married life?
6056Do you reckon they''ve got their paper yet?"
6056Do you suppose he could possibly know who I am?"
6056Do you suppose it could possibly-- in any way-- injure Dick''s business?"
6056Do you think that a man loses respect for a girl who will act as-- as boldly as I did?
6056Do you think-- do you imagine-- is it possible that you-- who do you think that man was?"
6056Do you want to run up and wash your hands?"
6056Dolly is in this plight simply because she saved you--""Saved_ me?_ What the hell--""Yes, she saved you from arrest and imprisonment as a moonshiner.
6056Going to the country this summer?
6056Had he not suspected Dolly, even when she had been most courageous and self- sacrificing?
6056Had he the requisite moral strength for a procedure so foreign from his nature?
6056Had the impalpable hand, reaching for him, descended on his offspring?
6056Have n''t I got a right to know about that child?
6056Have n''t you sworn that you care more for me than any one else?
6056Have you been blind all this time?
6056Have you been tryin''to pull that seine through the creek by yourself?"
6056Have you engaged yourself to this_ new_ one?"
6056Have you ever calculated how much they make out of you?"
6056Have you happened to see Andy Buckton about town to- day?"
6056He looked at me as if surprised that any one should ask such a question, and do you know what he answered?"
6056He makes money, but_ how_?
6056How can I refrain now when I have no one depending on me and Henderson has that helpless family of his?
6056How can he look at her, hear her voice, and not burn with triumphant pride?
6056How could Delbridge smile in his smug way, as he chewed his cigar and boasted of a new club of which he was the president?
6056How could Wright put up with his moderate salary and stand all day at that prison window?
6056How could he do a thing as silly as that?
6056How could he exchange platitudes, discuss politics, market- reports, or listen to new jokes?
6056How could he explain?
6056How could he part with her like that?
6056How could he think of becoming the son- in- law of a man like Tom Drake?
6056How goes it?"
6056How is it in the city?"
6056How is your plantation?"
6056How_ could_ a checker- playin''business like that tire anybody?"
6056I am a fool, and yet-- and yet-- what_ am_ I to do?"
6056I could n''t marry you--""You''d rather die than do it, had n''t you?"
6056I did n''t want to bother to go around to the gate, so what do you think I did?
6056I reckon you hain''t never"--Webb hesitated--"married a second time?"
6056I remember he called out to me just before bed- time,''Brother, how goes it?''
6056I simply trusted Mostyn with my all-- my life''s blood-- don''t you see?
6056I want to see Ann grow up and marry well, but what decent man would care to tie himself to a family of jail birds?
6056Is it Mostyn?
6056Is it any wonder that so many mothers of unmarried daughters consider him a safe catch for their girls?
6056Is it so?
6056Is n''t that awful?
6056Is n''t that nice?
6056Is there any likelihood of her marrying?"
6056Is there anything I can do for you?"
6056Is-- is he in prison?"
6056It has been all I could do to--""What''s the child talkin''about?"
6056It is a beautiful old place, is n''t it?"
6056It is n''t so, is it, Dolly?
6056It is n''t the first time persons have acted this way and come out all right, is it?
6056It is odd, is n''t it, to see a man mortified by the success of his own son?
6056It was this: Is it possible for human beings in the present day to obey the commandment of Jesus to love your neighbor as yourself?"
6056Love you?
6056Mitchell folded his paper, eyed her suspiciously for a moment, and then asked:"Is Andrew Buckton going to Atlantic City?
6056Mostyn still loved her in secret; of that Saunders had little doubt, for how could a man once embraced by such a creature ever forget it?
6056Mostyn whispered in agony,"what_ am_ I?"
6056Mostyn?"
6056Mostyn?"
6056Now, tell me, what did you do?"
6056Of course, Saunders told you of my land deal?"
6056Oh, God, am I really to lose her after all?
6056Oh, I thought-- I thought it was actually settled, but if-- if the paper tells the truth-- Why do n''t you talk?
6056Oh, wo n''t they talk at home?
6056Oh,_ ca n''t_ you see?"
6056Once the Governor broke in and said,''But how about_ your own_ case?''
6056Or, for that matter, why had she not telephoned him?
6056Or, in other words, can the mind of man develop in a busy, crowded place as well as in a quiet spot in the country?
6056Robby is n''t worse, is he?"
6056Say, Dolly, it ai n''t true, is it, that you intend to stand up for women goin''to the polls?"
6056Say, do you know I''m to blame?
6056Say, do you know how he got his start-- the money he put in this bank?
6056Say, you know him pretty well; do you reckon he will go?"
6056Seeing him, she asked:"Is everything ready, Jasper?"
6056Shall I-- mention you-- that is, would you like for me to express your-- sympathies?"
6056She said she was going to write you-- did you get a note?"
6056She was silent for a moment, then she asked:"Do you believe in premonitions?"
6056Should he go to the club, as he sometimes did to pass an evening?
6056Should he lie down and try to snatch a little sleep?
6056Should he wake him and explain the situation?
6056So it is really settled?"
6056Surely you do n''t oppose my-- my marriage?"
6056Surely you will not put us out to- night?"
6056That is the Capitol, is n''t it?"
6056That''s common sense, ai n''t it?"
6056That''s our county, is n''t it?"
6056The question was: Which is the better place to rear a man, the city or the country?
6056The time is nearly up-- only two days left, and I-- My God, do you think I can live after that boy is put in jail?
6056Then my own sister--""What''s wrong with Ann?
6056Then what did he do?
6056Then what do you reckon?
6056Timmons?"
6056Was he afraid that Buckton would gossip about what he had just seen, and that the public would brand him afresh with the discarded habits of the past?
6056Was his desire for reformation as strong as he had once thought it?
6056Was his interest in the girl grounded only in a subtle form of restrained passion?
6056Was his sister right?
6056Was it Mitchell''s petulant complaints of his daughter''s conduct, or was it what he had said about his grandchild?
6056Was it due to his return to his proper social plane?
6056Was it possible that he had really thought seriously of marrying her?
6056Was it possible that his imagination had tricked him into believing that he loved the girl and could make actual sacrifices for her?
6056Was it some strange psychic sympathy or bond of blood between his motherless offspring and himself?
6056Was it the fellow''s confident allusion to Mitchell and his daughter?
6056Was it the sight of Delbridge and his mention of Mostyn''s financial prowess?
6056Was it vague displeasure?
6056Was it wounded pride?
6056Was it, he asked himself, a farewell salute?
6056Was the other life sheer delusion?
6056Was thought- transference a scientific fact, as many hold, and was the insistent impression due to the bearing of culpable minds upon his?
6056Well, did he-- did he?
6056Well, do you want to sell_ me_ your stock?"
6056Well, well, what''s to be done?"
6056Well, what do you think?
6056What are Alan Delbridge''s operations to me?
6056What are you all talkin''about, anyway?
6056What are you talking about?
6056What can be done?"
6056What could be done?
6056What could be more glorious?
6056What could the limp, pale- faced stenographers in their simple dresses hope for?
6056What do I mean?
6056What do you say?
6056What do you say?"
6056What do you think he will do about it, Kitty?"
6056What do you think?
6056What does it say?"
6056What does the whole thing mean?
6056What had wrought the change?
6056What has got into you all at once?
6056What if Irene and Buckton were having their fun; could he not also enjoy himself?
6056What in the name of common sense does he come to_ me_ for?
6056What is it that always checks me?
6056What is the matter, brother?
6056What is the matter?
6056What is the use of holding out longer?
6056What is the use?"
6056What is to prevent him-- the helpless replica of myself-- from taking the way I took?
6056What man of his acquaintance could claim such a bride as she would make?
6056What mattered it now who held the office of president?
6056What more admirable course could a penitent man pursue?
6056What need had he now of money?
6056What was it that kept coupling this hurried trip of hers with Buckton?
6056What was it that kept whispering within him that here and here alone was the balm for such wounds as his?
6056What was to be done-- what_ could_ be done?
6056What would his fashionable sister and his entire social set think?
6056What would old Mitchell say?
6056What would the morrow bring forth?
6056What would you do with her?
6056What''s the use o''hurryin''?
6056What-- what are you going to do?"
6056Where have they put''im-- where have they put''i m?
6056Who bought it in-- my God, who do you reckon bid it in for twenty- five cents on the dollar?
6056Who can tell?"
6056Who knows, perhaps_ his_ luck will turn?
6056Who knows?
6056Who knows?
6056Who may I say it is?"
6056Who would grind the corn and till the soil and do all the rest of the dirty work?
6056Why am I constantly thinking of that old man, unless it is because he has predicted my ruin so confidently?
6056Why are you so awfully mysterious?"
6056Why did I think of him?
6056Why did n''t I tell her how I feel and throw myself on her mercy?
6056Why did you do so much for him?"
6056Why had he clasped them so warmly?
6056Why should I want to be like him?"
6056Why should he beat about the bush?
6056Why should he conceal from any one the knowledge of her shame?
6056Why should he let the matter disturb him?
6056Why should n''t I?
6056Why, did n''t Ann just as good as tell me t''other day, on her way home from school, that she was goin''to a fine finishin''-school in Atlanta?
6056Will you be ready soon?"
6056Will you come?"
6056Will you-- would you mind giving your old uncle a hug with-- with_ both_ your arms?"
6056Will you?"
6056Would he tire of her; would he be ashamed of her, here amid these surroundings?
6056Would n''t you be a pretty idiot?
6056Yes, she was his; her whole wonderful, warm, throbbing being was his; and yet-- and yet how could it be?
6056Yo''know what,''ooman?
6056You are not a cold- blooded murderer, are you?
6056You can see through that, ca n''t you?
6056You do n''t mean that he would throw up the job?"
6056You do not care a snap for your wife; what is it that makes you look like a ghost of your old jolly self?"
6056You know my manager, Hobson, of course?"
6056You know old Tom Drake''s place near your farm?
6056You know, perhaps, that Ann used to care a good deal for that reckless fellow Abe Westbrook?"
6056You never accept such invitations, so how could you expect people to run after you with them?"
6056You recall the picnic over the mountain last spring?"
6056You remember the big investments you advised him to make in wild timberlands in Alabama and North Georgia a few years ago?
6056You remember the time your ma thought some niggers had broke in an''stole a lot that was shelled?
6056You saw that fellow with Ann just now?
6056You say you love me, and I_ know_ I love you, so why should you_ not_ let me kiss you?
6056You seem to stay out of it, but what if you do?
6056You will be at the bank after a while, wo n''t you?"
6056You will let me say that, wo n''t you?"
6056You''ve got to settle with me, and quick, too, for something you did--""I_ did?_"he gasped, in slow surprise.
6056You?"
6056Your wife and her fellow are having a good time; why should n''t you?
6056_"Run down?
6056and did you hear?"
6056bother you!_ Is that the way to talk to me?
6056does she still love him, and will he always stand between me and my happiness?"
6056he asked, under his breath, and yet audibly--"that is, in case I-- I found another use for the money?"
6056he cried aloud,"are you close to me now?
6056he is lovely, is n''t he?
6056how did this ever come about?
6056how?"
6056if you women are so dead bent on splicin''folks why do n''t you keep your eyes open?
6056what could be done?
6056what happened?
6056you know now, do n''t you, how it feels to squirm under public scorn and lose something you hold dear?
16303Am I a child, Walter Munro, that you ask me such a question? 16303 Am I for ever to listen to this weakness-- this unavailing reproach of yourself and everything around you?
16303Am I so fond of trifling, that my officer asks me such a question?
16303And are you not all to me, Katharine-- the one thing for which I would live, and wanting which I care not to live? 16303 And build up Chub''s house that the fire burnt?
16303And ca n''t you show us where, Chub? 16303 And have I done nothing-- and am I seeking to do nothing for you, Guy, by way of atonement?
16303And have you no thought of mine, Mark? 16303 And how came it, Mark?"
16303And how is she at the mercy of this wretch?
16303And how, if he speaks out, and you have no chance either to stop his mouth or to run for it?
16303And is none of this truth?
16303And now, Bur, what have you to say that I should n''t wear out a hickory or two upon you?
16303And shall I see the strannger agin? 16303 And should I not be sad, Mark, and should you not be sad?
16303And stand up with us,''squire, and join in the scuffle?
16303And there is, then, no evidence for what you have said?
16303And they are now in possession of your lands?
16303And this is all true, Mark-- must I believe all this?
16303And this--?
16303And to Miss Munro again do I owe my life? 16303 And was Munro there?"
16303And what are your plans, Lucy? 16303 And what do you propose to do?"
16303And what if they do, Forrester? 16303 And what is it you require of me in this matter?"
16303And what is that one circumstance, dear Lucy, which affrights you so much? 16303 And what is to be the end of all this, Mark?
16303And what of all this-- what is all this to me?
16303And what say you to this accusation, Guy Rivers? 16303 And what should I pray for, and what should I say-- and whom should I curse?"
16303And what should be the value of your spoken thanks, Ellen? 16303 And what then?
16303And what we all for do here, when you leff? 16303 And what''s to be done with the pedler and the fool?
16303And when I have obtained admission to the practice of the law, do you say that Edith shall be mine?
16303And when do you move, Forrester?
16303And where am I to go?
16303And where is his house, Chub?
16303And where is it that you go, Lucy?
16303And where then would be the pleasure of revenge?
16303And wherefore say this? 16303 And wherefore then would you we d, Guy, with one whom you do not, whom you can not love?
16303And who are the regulators?
16303And who did you see at the rocks, and what men were they that made you prisoners?
16303And who would speak thus for me? 16303 And why not do so now-- why stop at all among the Cherokees?
16303And why not go along with me, captain? 16303 And why not, my sweet sister?
16303And why part, Mark? 16303 And why, captain,"replied the lieutenant, much affected--"why should you not take the course which you advise for me?
16303And will you not love her whom you are now about to we d?
16303And with what reason, Ralph Colleton, do you suppose that I will sanction an alliance between you and my daughter? 16303 And would you return, if you could do so?"
16303And yet, mister, I guess you would n''t want that I should know your raal name, now, would you? 16303 And you are now alone in the way of trade, and this store which you are about to establish is entirely on your own account?"
16303And you do not conjecture? 16303 And you know his route for to- day?"
16303Are you ready?
16303Are you sure that when he ceases to sleep the case will be any better?
16303At the house in which you dwell?
16303Ay, but what security is there that she will not give you another uncle?
16303Bad as the fellow is, do you think it possible that they will torture him as you describe, or hang him, without law, and a fair trial?
16303But from whom, Miss Munro, am I to fear all this? 16303 But where is he?
16303But who are they of whom you speak, Miss Munro? 16303 But who shall ride from his destiny?"
16303But why may we not set upon them now?
16303But why not let him start, and take the woods for it? 16303 But why not trade now, Bunce?--what''s to hinder us now?
16303But why, Lucy, if a less pleasant, or at least a doubtful arrangement, why yield to it-- why reject my solicitation? 16303 But will Maxson do this-- may he not refuse?
16303But, Chub, will you not come and live with me? 16303 But, are you sure that he is the man?
16303But--"But what? 16303 By what right do you ask the question?"
16303Can you fight, Bunce? 16303 Chub wants to see nobody but his mother-- there''s Miss Lucy now-- why do n''t you let me see her?
16303Colleton!--save Master Colleton!--do tell-- is that what you mean?
16303Come,''squire, how''s this? 16303 Did they separate at your place of residence, and what was the employment of the prisoner subsequently on the same day?"
16303Do you hear that song, Bunce?
16303Do you know what that means? 16303 Do you really speak in earnest, captain?"
16303Do you think I will, and you may be looking arter her too? 16303 Do you want to take a summerset through that window, old fellow, that you try to stuff us with such tough stories?
16303Do?
16303Find you not this place lonesome, Miss Munro? 16303 Foolish girl, would you trifle with me-- would you have me spurn and hate you?
16303For my good?
16303Guilty-- guilty-- Oh, my father-- Edith-- Edith-- have I lived for this?
16303Hain''t you got''tatoes? 16303 Hark!--heard you nothing, Munro-- no sound?
16303How do we cross?
16303How do you like the music?
16303How is this, my good fellows? 16303 How know you?--wherefore do you ask?"
16303How should he?
16303How so, Ralph-- why should it make you unhappy?
16303How unjustifiable young sir?
16303How, Ralph, tell me, I pray you-- how should that book have taught you this strange notion? 16303 How,--by what means?"
16303How?
16303I know-- I know,impatiently--"who else?"
16303I owe it to you, Guy-- how?
16303I say, now, Chub-- seeing you have the raal grit, if it ai n''t axing too much, what do you think to do with all that money? 16303 Is there a devil,"he involuntarily murmured,"that stands between me and my victim?
16303Is this possible? 16303 Is your purpose insult, sir, that you tell us this?"
16303Left Carolina for good and all, heh?
16303Lucy, why these titles? 16303 My pretensions, Colonel Colleton?
16303My pretensions, sir?--The hand of Edith!--Do I hear you right, uncle? 16303 No doubt, no doubt; but what''s your trade, if I may be so bold, that made you larn the use of it so nicely?"
16303No-- in the tavern?--You say his wife had come back-- did he trust himself there?
16303Now, look ye, Bunce, do you take me for a blear- eyed mole, that never seed the light of a man''s eyes?
16303Of whom does the captain speak?
16303Of whom speak you?
16303Oh, how can I speak all this? 16303 Oh, no-- no, your honor-- my client-- Mr. Colleton-- how can you think such a thing?
16303Oh, now you are, indeed, my father-- yet-- uncle, shall I see you at the time when it is to be done? 16303 Oh, that?
16303Oh, what-- my trade? 16303 Oh, why are you here-- why did you come?"
16303Oh, will you? 16303 Old Blucher,"he said, addressing his horse, and speaking in clear silvery tones--"what have you done, old fellow?
16303Or what-- what mean you by that word, that look, Mark? 16303 Report speaks favorably of the preacher we are to hear to- day, Miss Munro-- have you ever heard him?"
16303Say what?
16303See you not my knife is in them? 16303 See you not, your honor, that her mind wavers-- that she speaks and thinks wildly?
16303Shall I shoot, sir?
16303Shall there be always something in the way of my revenge?
16303Shame on you, my daughter!--how can you confess so much? 16303 She has told you no foolish story of me?"
16303She is an orphan, then?
16303She will not have him, then, you think?
16303Should it not rather be a source of satisfaction than otherwise-- will it not put him more completely at our disposal?
16303Sober? 16303 Stay-- hear you nothing now, as the wind sets up from below?
16303Then why this assembly? 16303 Then, George, you are absolutely bent on having us show our title?
16303To be sure-- who knows? 16303 To the nation, mother-- where else?
16303True, and like enough, Munro; and why do you provoke me to say them?
16303True, what matters it where I go-- whether among the savage or the civilized? 16303 Was I yesterday?"
16303Well, Chub-- since you like it best, though at best a bur-- what were you doing in that tree? 16303 Well, I''m not; and I should like to hear what it is you know him by?"
16303Well, are you ready for a start? 16303 Well, but how if they do not bring the boy, and they leave him in the jail?"
16303Well, but, Chub-- why do you call yourself an owl? 16303 Well, by dogs!--and what of that?--and who is it says I sha n''t, if it''s my notion?
16303Well, push on as you please; but do you know anything of this route, and what course will you pursue in doing him up?
16303Well, squire, did you ever see a live Yankee?
16303Well, you''re ready, however, and we shall have no difficulty at the last hour?
16303Were they frequently together since the appearance of the prisoner in these regions?
16303Were they together on the day preceding the night of the murder?
16303What am I to understand from this, young man?
16303What can be the source of the intimacy between himself and Munro? 16303 What have you been doing, Guy?"
16303What is he?
16303What matters it where, Ellen? 16303 What mean you?
16303What means all this, sir? 16303 What means the girl?"
16303What means this silence-- what am I to believe-- what am I to think, Mark Forrester? 16303 What mixture?
16303What shall we do with the body? 16303 What was that?"
16303What will you use-- dirk?
16303What would you do?
16303What!--because there is no bible, shall there be no truth? 16303 What''s that?
16303What''s that? 16303 What, are there rogues in these parts, then, old gentleman?"
16303What, not get in a passion if all the whiskey''s gone? 16303 What, tired already, Wat?
16303What,she asked,"will you not stay with me through the night, and situated as I am?"
16303Where does Lucy sleep?
16303Where-- in the rocks?
16303Who is he? 16303 Who would have thought to find_ him_ here?"
16303Who''ll believe him, think you?--where''s the proof? 16303 Who?--of whom do you speak?
16303Why are you silent? 16303 Why do you ask me?"
16303Why not carry her to her chamber-- put her in bed, and let us be off?
16303Why not? 16303 Why not?--What should we do with it, I pray?
16303Why, did you not tell me of the manner in which Forrester assaulted my nephew, and forced upon him what he did as matter of self- defense? 16303 Why, how much time would she have?
16303Why, how now, Chub-- do you not see me?
16303Why, what did he to you?
16303Why, what had you to alarm you? 16303 Why, what is this, Briggs; what see you?"
16303Why, where''s your house, Chub?
16303Why, you dog, did n''t you help to steal her away? 16303 Will you never have done?"
16303Will you not speak to me, Mark? 16303 Will you not speak?"
16303Would you have me stay and perish? 16303 Would you see this-- know this, and reflect upon the shame, the mental agony, far greater than all, of such a death to him?"
16303Yes, I know; but you do n''t count young Brooks?
16303Yet, when this field was mine, as I now desire it, what more did it avail me? 16303 You ai n''t looking for it, is you?
16303You are just, and justly severe, Miss Munro; but what else have you to expect? 16303 You are now then about thirty- two?"
16303You do not-- eh? 16303 You hear nothing?"
16303You hear that''squire? 16303 You knew the murdered man?"
16303You know Miss Lucy?
16303You should know him well enough by this time, for he has sought your life often enough already-- who should I mean, if not Guy Rivers?
16303You, lawyer? 16303 Your mother?"
16303--"_whar_ from?"
16303--"_whar_ going?"
16303A respectful delicacy pervaded his manner as he inquired earnestly:--"What is this danger, Miss Munro?
16303Ah!--have you taken down on paper what I said?
16303Ai nt I ready?
16303Am I not choked-- do not my knees tremble?
16303Am I to be haunted for ever with such as you, and with words like these?"
16303Am I to understand you, good people, as assembled here for the purpose of resisting the laws of the land?"
16303And how long is it, I pray, since you have made this discovery?"
16303And let me ask, Mr. Chairman, if they was n''t made for our climate, why did he bring''em here?
16303And the question before us is jist what I have said, and what shall we do with the critter?
16303And what if you were to push the matter, where will the sheriff or the military find us?
16303And yet, how could he account for those strange words-- that manner so full of offended pride?
16303Approaching the outlaw closely, he asked, in a half whisper:--"Who was the witness of the murder-- who could swear for the magistrate?
16303Are all asleep, think you-- your wife?"
16303Are there any scruples now?"
16303Are you a man-- are you ready-- bent to do what you can?
16303Are you for us or against us?"
16303Are you ignorant who he is?
16303Are you prepared for such a finish to your ride?"
16303Are you satisfied now of the necessity of silencing him?"
16303Are you satisfied?
16303Are you so green as to think, if suffered to escape, his tongue or hands would have been idle?
16303Are you the man to help your friend-- will you make one along with others who are going to try for it?"
16303Are you willing to knock down and drag out, when there''s need for it?"
16303Ask they whether he is the victim of justice or of tyranny?
16303Be calm-- why do you work your fingers in that manner?"
16303Brooks might have explained, but for Tongs, who dashed in after this fashion:--"And who takes too much?
16303Bunce?"
16303But have you brought the medicine?"
16303But have you made up your mind, in earnest, to relieve me of such trifling encumbrances as those you have just mentioned?"
16303But how came you, Lambert, to neglect sawing the axle?
16303But how could I, the petty lawyer of a county court, in the midst of a wilderness, appropriate time, find means and opportunities even for travel?
16303But how long is this to last?
16303But it is as easy to do, as to threaten-- to make you feel as to make you fear-- and why not?
16303But tell me, Bunce, what has become of her-- where is she gone, and who is now attending her?"
16303But to what purpose had she heard all this, if she suffered the fearful deed to proceed to execution?
16303But what am I to do,''squire?
16303But what have you to report?
16303But what of her niece?
16303But what paper is that in your hand?"
16303But where''s he-- the rascal?
16303But whose fault was it that we followed the wrong game?
16303But why may I not defend myself from the assassins?
16303But why prolong a scene admitting of so little variety as that which describes the sweets, and the strifes, and the sorrows, of mortal love?
16303But why talk I to you thus, when he is almost in my grasp; and there is neither let nor hinderance?
16303But why tremble-- do you not tell me he is safe?"
16303But would such be its effect?
16303But, for your own safety-- are you bent on running the risk?"
16303But, how is the old lady now?
16303But, poor girl, what can she do?
16303But, what''s the great fuss to- night?
16303By what right do you ask me these or any questions?
16303By what right, sir, and for whom do you require it?"
16303Ca n''t we knock him down too?"
16303Ca n''t you, now, lay aside the gentleman just long enough to wing him?
16303Call me Ralph-- or Colleton-- or-- or-- nay, look not so coldly-- why not call me your brother?"
16303Can I forget him?
16303Can I not see through the poor hypocrisy of such a lamentation?
16303Can it be true?
16303Can society complain, when prostituting herself and depriving me of my rights, that I resisted her usurpation and denied her authority?
16303Can you do this, Miss Munro?
16303Can you not find an answer?"
16303Can you not kill your enemy without drinking his blood?"
16303Can you not, will you not answer?"
16303Can you reveal any facts for our knowledge?
16303Can you say nothing to me which will put me in better humor-- can you give me no advice, no consolation?
16303Can you show anything, in this chain of circumstances, against him, which, of your own knowledge, you can say to be untrue?
16303Colleton?"
16303Did I not say but now, that while that boy slept I could not?"
16303Did I not see you fly?
16303Did I say men?"
16303Did not history sustain its every particular?
16303Did the lieutenant make out the appearance of the others?"
16303Did you not make certain of the fresh track at the fork, so that there was no doubting you?"
16303Do I not know how little you care for the risk-- how little you can lose by it?"
16303Do I not know that all your complaints and reproaches, though you address them in so many words to yourself, are intended only for my use and ear?
16303Do n''t I know her, and han''t I seen her, and is n''t it I, Chub Williams, as they calls me, that loves the very airth she treads?"
16303Do n''t tink I can stay here, Mass Ra''ph, after you gone;''spose, you no''jection, I go''long wid you?
16303Do n''t you see how I drive ahead, and do n''t care for the hind wheels?
16303Do you hear it?
16303Do you know who did?
16303Do you mean to confess for both of us at the first question?"
16303Do you not know him?"
16303Do you not see it written in my face?
16303Do you persevere in the sacrifice of this youngster?
16303Do you really mean what you say?"
16303Do you suppose, if it was the truth, it would have taken so long a time in telling?
16303Do you understand me?"
16303Does she not sing like a mocking- bird?--is she not a sweet, a true creature?
16303Does your brain take in its meaning, my friend?"
16303Fear you not I shall reveal it?
16303Get the young fellow clear, and what will his friends do for you?
16303Go, Dillon-- have I not said that you_ must_ fly-- that I no longer need your services?
16303Guy, in truth?--you really live in it, all the year round?
16303Guy, will you join me in prayer?"
16303Had he, indeed, given up the struggle so easily?
16303Had she performed her duty in suffering his case to go to judgment?
16303Have you been eavesdropping-- telling tales-- hatching plots?"
16303Have you forgotten how you pulled away the stones?
16303Have you not a thought on the subject?
16303Have you not done enough?
16303Have you not heard of men who have learned in time to believe the lies of their own invention?
16303He loves_ her_, girl-- she, whom I-- but why should I tell it you?
16303He now proceeded to her examination in the following form:--"You know the prisoner?"
16303He paused a moment for a reply, but she spoke not; and with something like impetuosity he proceeded:--"You make no reply, Katharine?
16303Hob-- Hob-- Hob-- I say-- where the devil are you?
16303Hob-- say, you rascal, was I within five miles of the Catcheta pass to- day?"
16303How are we to account for all these things, unless we do so by a reference to the peculiar make of the man?
16303How can I tell that which must destroy him--""Him?--Of whom do you speak, lady?
16303How can you believe that he would do so?"
16303How could she sleep?
16303How could you think that I would design to give you pain?
16303How dare you spy into my dwelling, and send other people there?
16303How far, say you, is it from the place where the man-- what''s his name-- encamped last night?"
16303How had she misconceived him?
16303How happened the fire?"
16303How know they you are guilty?
16303How know you that the prisoner did not commit this crime?
16303How long is it, Guy, since you have become so particularly solicitous of beauty, so proud of your face and features?"
16303How long will you permit this girl to trifle with us both?
16303How much have we yet to the river?"
16303How shall I see her?
16303How should I say what ai n''t true?
16303How should they doubt?
16303How then should she proceed?
16303How was she to prove that the dirk of the youth was not in his possession at the time of the murder?
16303How was she to save the man she loved?
16303How''s it,''squire-- you an''t hurt, I reckon?
16303How, but by showing the guilt of her uncle?
16303I believe you fear for me, but may you not have exaggerated the cause of alarm to yourself?
16303I do not understand you; why speak you in this way, and to me?"
16303I have your pledge, therefore-- have I not?"
16303I made the sacrifice-- name, fame, honor, troops of friends-- for what?
16303I pitied the poor fellow, but what more could I do?"
16303I say, now-- what must I do?"
16303I see you ai nt a woman plain enough from your face, and I pretty much conclude you must be a man; though you have got on-- what''s that, now?
16303I should have you whipped for it, sir-- do you know that I can whip-- don''t the hickories grow here?"
16303I''m sure none of you want''em, boys-- do you?"
16303If I wanted their lives, could I not choose a shorter method, and a weapon which I could more truly rely upon than I ever can upon you?
16303If he resists, or any of them--""Knock''em down?"
16303If, however, he were guilty of the attempt, as you allege, of what avail is it for you to make it?
16303In a more refined circle, whose chances of happiness will be more likely to command than yours?
16303Is he interested in the hotel?"
16303Is it not so, Munro?"
16303Is it written-- is it written?
16303Is not this the custom?"
16303Is that Brooks-- is that Brooks beside me?"
16303Is the fellow to hurl me down, and trench my cheek in this manner, and escape without hurt?"
16303Is the labor I have undergone-- the life I have led-- to have no fruits?
16303Is there anything wonderful in that?
16303Is there no circumstance which may avail?
16303Is there water in that pitcher?
16303Is there, indeed, a God?"
16303Is this nothing-- is it nothing to sacrifice such a creature to such a creature?
16303Is this the charge, my friends?"
16303It must be done: but how?
16303It must come, and who can better tell of it than you, who know it all?"
16303It would n''t have been gospel, but where''s the merit of a lawyer, if he ca n''t go through a bog?
16303It''s true, I was born among them; but that, you know, do n''t make a man one on them?"
16303Let''s see-- a gallon of whiskey-- aint a gallon a heap too much for only three people?"
16303Misser Bunce, ai nt you shame for try for draw de money out ob the boy pocket, wha''massa gee um?"
16303Munro advanced and addressed her with some sternness--"Why are you abroad, Lucy, and at this hour?
16303Munro, after a brief pause, replied--"Who speaks of murder, girl?
16303Must I again tell over the accursed story of my defeat and of his success?
16303Must I go over a story so full of pain and humiliation-- must I describe my loss, in again placing before your eyes a portraiture like this?
16303Must he die?"
16303My dagger is even now upon your bosom-- do you not feel it?
16303Neither of us, Edith( may I believe it of you?)
16303No knife to cut the saplings, and pare the nails, nor nothing of no kind?
16303Nothing of this could she perform-- and what did she there?
16303Now, Ellen, do you forgive me?
16303Now, Munro, how can you speak so?
16303Now, ai n''t she a sweet creature?
16303Now, you do n''t, do you?"
16303On the contrary, will he not, hearing of you in the neighborhood, be more close in his restraints upon me?
16303On this point I may say nothing; but, do you conceive it altogether fair in you thus to compliment us at our own expense?
16303Rivers, what is to be the end of all this blundering?"
16303Rivers?"
16303Said you not something of-- did you not tell me of a person who could say for you that which would have done much towards your escape?
16303Saw you not that he knew us both?
16303Shall I do him the kindness to inquire whether there be reason for the mood which prompts me to destroy him?"
16303Shall I dread the shadow now, and shrink back when the sun shines out that makes it?
16303Shall I have my men?"
16303Shall I not have my atonement-- my sacrifice-- and shall you deny me-- you, Walter Munro, who owe it to me in justice?"
16303Shall she, doing wrong herself in the first instance, undertake to punish?
16303Shall the youngster live?
16303Shall we call them_ arts_--the processes by which Edith Colleton had persuaded Lucy Munro to her purposes?
16303Shall we try a birth there, or push on for the river?"
16303Shall_ he_ do no more who hates, who fears, who sickens at the sight of the man who has crossed his path in love and in ambition?
16303She cried out, as he entered--"Well, Ralph, she will come with us?"
16303She did not reply to the observation, but seeing his hand upon the bridle, asked hurriedly--"Do you, sir-- does Mr. Colleton go with this party?"
16303Should she now suffer it to go to its dreadful execution, when a word from her would stay the hand of the officer, and save the life of the condemned?
16303Should such a mean spirit as his have joys which were denied to me?
16303Sleeps he not in yon room to the northeast?"
16303So, she answered promptly, but quietly--"Pshaw, Ralph, how can you afflict yourself with, any such notions?
16303Speak, therefore; what is it I can do for you?"
16303Speak-- what is the pledge?"
16303That story of yours about the hot and cold may do for the pigeons, but you do n''t think the hawks will swallow it, do ye?
16303The chairman with due gravity began:--"Jared Bunce-- is that your name?"
16303The faces of many of them were familiar to him; but where had he seen them before?
16303The finger of the outlaw is upon the trigger-- the deadly aim is taken!--what arrests the deed?
16303The landlord proceeded:--"Pass on, Rivers; pass on: or have you determined better about this matter?
16303The pedler took the money-- why not?
16303The question with his rider was, in what direction to turn, to extricate himself from the mazes into which he had so rashly ridden?
16303The scoundrel owes his election to our votes, and shall he refuse us what we ask?
16303There was no such charitable thought for him, however, in the minds of those who heard-- as how should there be?
16303These are the fruits which I have sown, however; should I shrink to gather them?
16303Think you, sweet Lucy, that I am less hardy, less fearless of the dangers and the difficulties of this region than yourself?
16303This is a cruel blow; and-- for what?
16303This is as much as I can do, Ralph Colleton-- is it not enough?"
16303This is midnight: it is only at this hour that I can steal into the village; and how, and in what manner, shall I be able to do as you require?"
16303Thus, even when perfect strangers to one another, after the usual preliminaries of"how are you, friend,"or"strannger?"
16303To Edith, what could he say?
16303To whom do I owe all this, if it comes not of your own head?"
16303To whom, at that moment, could he turn, without putting himself in the power of an enemy?
16303To whom, then, could she apply?
16303Upon what, I pray you, do you ground your pretensions to the hand of Edith Colleton?"
16303Was I not irritated by other things when I spoke to you unkindly?
16303Was it well to speak as you have spoken?"
16303Was not that the tramping of a horse?"
16303Was there anything like sympathy in such a feeling?
16303Was this caprice?
16303We can leave her now.--What''s the course?"
16303Well, I guess there must be some mistake; you ai nt sure, now, friend: might be some other dealer that you bought from?"
16303Well, now, who''s afeared when he''s got a broadside of whiskey in him?
16303Well--""To the business: what matters it whether I have a name or not?
16303What are my offences, and whom have I offended?"
16303What became of that beautiful young girl from Carolina, on a visit to the village, when you lost your election?
16303What book is it?
16303What can it mean?"
16303What could the pedler have to communicate, on paper, which might not have been left over for their interview?
16303What do you see, old fellow, to make you uneasy?
16303What does all this mean?"
16303What else could you have done?
16303What for you go''tall?"
16303What had he been saying?
16303What have I done to you, but good?
16303What have I to fear-- from what would you save me?"
16303What have I?
16303What if there is no bible?"
16303What is it frightens you?"
16303What is it prevents me from putting you to death on the spot?
16303What is it your purpose to do-- where will you fly?"
16303What is the plan to which, I am sad to see, you so unhesitatingly give the preference?"
16303What is the route which you have advised him to take?
16303What is this new mystery?
16303What know you of my mother?"
16303What madness prompts you to this folly?
16303What makes you think so?"
16303What mean you by this violence?"
16303What means this emotion?"
16303What miserable mockery is this?"
16303What mystery is this?
16303What next?
16303What of her?"
16303What offices could she do for him-- what influence exercise-- how lighten the burden of his doom-- how release him from his chains?
16303What say you, Master Colleton-- shall we turn aside or go forward?"
16303What say you?
16303What then?
16303What were his feelings then?
16303What would you do-- what should be done?"
16303What''s in the wind now?"
16303What''s the reason now?
16303What, I pray, may be your age?
16303When was the doctor here last?"
16303When you''re put out into the wide world, and have no company and no acquaintance, why, what are you to do?
16303When--"and she spoke hurriedly, while a strong and aguish shiver went through her whole frame--"when is it said that he must die?"
16303Where are you?"
16303Where have you been to- night-- what doing-- why abroad?
16303Where is now that feeling of confidence, which led you to comply with my prayer, and consider me as your brother?
16303Where is the proof of this?"
16303Where''s your cart, Bunce?"
16303Wherefore would you pursue the youth, arms in your hands, hatred in your heart, and horrible threatenings upon your lips?
16303Whether, if called upon by any authority, you would reveal what you know of this business?"
16303Whither have you brought us?"
16303Who dares say you are guilty, when_ I_ know you are innocent?
16303Who is here to arrest him?
16303Who is_ he_?"
16303Who knows, again, but you boil your water quite too hot?
16303Who knows?
16303Who says I sha n''t take what I likes-- and that I takes more than is good for me?
16303Who shall doubt its importance?
16303Who would desire, who would dare to make the endeavor?
16303Who''s he says a word against her?
16303Whoever reckoned to find a Yankee pedler with a_ raal_ good taste for Monongahely?
16303Why come you to chafe me here in my den?
16303Why did you not refuse lodgings to this youngster?
16303Why do n''t men go_ for''ad_ in the world?
16303Why do some men shrink from a cat?
16303Why do you crush the crawling spider with your heel?
16303Why have you done this?
16303Why linger, then, where you are no longer needed?
16303Why not go at once into Mississippi, and begin the world, as you propose in the end to do?"
16303Why not men doubt the truth of their own doings?
16303Why should I hide it from you?
16303Why should I hope?
16303Why should the memory of so fair a creature as this be haunted by a story such as mine?
16303Why should you care for her prayers and pleadings-- her tears and entreaties?
16303Why should you not anticipate happiness as well as the rest of us?
16303Why such formality?
16303Why tell him that you wanted to pick his pocket, and perhaps cut his throat?"
16303Why this wild, this uncalled- for exhortation?"
16303Why trace his progress?--what good can come out of the knowledge of those influences and tendencies, which have made him a criminal?
16303Why, did n''t I say, now, I''d go my length for the young gentleman?
16303Why?
16303Will it be of any use to pursue this boy again to- night?
16303Will it do?"
16303Will it please you to give us the road?"
16303Will my subordinates fly in my face, and presume to disobey my commands?
16303Will not your chance of exposure, too, be so much the greater, as to make it incumbent upon him to pursue his determination with rigor?
16303Will you do for me this kindness, Guy?
16303Will you not say upon what route he went?
16303Will you tell the authorities what you saw?"
16303Will you too be the first to recommend forgetfulness; to overthrow my chance of happiness?
16303With a feeling of undisguised indignation, he exclaimed, as the outlaw turned furiously upon him--"Wretch-- what would you?
16303With such a spirit, how could I be what men style and consider a good man?
16303Wo n''t Brooks and Tongs say where they got drunk, and then sha n''t I be in a scant fixin''?"
16303Wo n''t you go in and take supper?
16303Wo n''t you go there with me, Chub?"
16303Would that clumsy block, and those slight bars, and that dull jailer, be an obstacle that would keep you back?
16303Would you be less ready than she is for such a sacrifice?"
16303Would you go and save him, by giving up the true criminal?
16303Would you have had him live to blab?
16303Yet how should this be done?
16303Yet stay-- where is the dirk which you found at the stable?
16303You ai n''t in want of nothing, eh?
16303You do n''t want to see me, boy, do you?"
16303You found me a rogue-- you have made me a--""Why do you hesitate?
16303You have forgiven me-- all-- everything?"
16303You have heard of the Pony Club-- have you not?"
16303You know Brooks, the jailer, and his bulldog brother- in- law, Tongs?
16303You must have spent, I reckon, a pretty smart time at the use of it, now, did n''t ye?"
16303You must lay your damages handsomely, furnish a few affidavits, put the business entirely in my hands, and-- how much is the value of your goods?"
16303You wo n''t deliver up peaceably, and do justice?"
16303am I so low as this, that I may not be permitted to be alone when I will?
16303am I to be baffled always?
16303and for what?"
16303and have we not a right to defend our castle from assailants?
16303and is that your way of thinking, sir; and pray who are you that answer so freely for your neighbors?"
16303and loving him as she did, and hating or fearing his enemies?
16303and my hands-- look for yourself-- are they not covered with blood?"
16303and which of these punishments will they be likely to bestow upon the Yankee?"
16303and why did you not bring these facts forward?
16303are you going to set up for a sentimentalist?"
16303did they not attack us in our trenches-- in our castle as it were?
16303do n''t you hear?
16303do you fear to speak?
16303how can you imagine such a thing?
16303how command her attention?
16303how obtain her presence?
16303how shall I requite-- how acknowledge my deep responsibility to her?"
16303no harm?"
16303not back your words?"
16303now-- who are you, I say?
16303or maybe you''re going to tell it to me now?
16303quickly and sternly retorted the landlord"Did you not behold us ridden down by the soldiery?
16303shall a few beardless soldiers keep me back, and baffle me in this?
16303she forgave you-- I know she did-- heard you not the words which she uttered at the last?"
16303tell me, is there yet time-- yet time to save him I When is it they say he must die?"
16303that book-- where is it?
16303that''s the how, is it?"
16303was the inquiry of the maiden;"and why did you this thing?"
16303well, I should like to know how you calkilate to do that?"
16303what do you see?"
16303what for you go dis time o''night?
16303what is meant by your present military attitude?
16303where her pride then?--her high birth and station?--wealth, family?
16303where''s your calculations?
16303who shall say that it does not overthrow and altogether destroy the original nature?
16303who would hear her plea, even though she boldly narrated all the truth, in behalf of the prisoner?
16303whom do you mean?"
16303why do you repulse me?
16303why should you not become the thing at once for which you have been long destined?
16303why this disquietude, and what has alarmed you?--why have you left your chamber?"
16303why, did you not say he had killed Forrester?"
16303why, where is he?--what the devil can he have to write about?"
16303will you join us, now or never, to save the young fellow?"
16303will you never cease to but against obstacles?
16303will you not fight-- not fight?
16303will you suffer me to be treated thus-- will you not make this man undo his hold, and let me retire to my chamber?"
16303would you behold me, dragged perhaps from your own arms before the stern judge, and to a dreadful death?
16303would you believe it of her nobleness and delicacy, that she has this night visited him in his very chamber?"
16303would you kill him?"
16303would you strike the unresisting man?"
16303you from Georgy, and never to hear tell of the regilators?
16303you suffered no affright-- no injury?
16303you''ll tie Guy?
16303you''ve had it in your jaws, you raven, have you not?"
21320''Gator no good widout um head, eh?
21320''Most done?
21320''Sleep, sir?
21320''Tick um froo de fis?
21320About being safe, and the risk of fresh attacks by the Indians?
21320Afraid?
21320Again I ask, how soon will you evacuate this place?
21320Ah, George, any good news?
21320Ah, I recollect,I said,"Where are the Indians?"
21320Ah, Morgan,I used to say, impatiently,"when you''re not busy: when will that be?"
21320Ah, my boy,said my father, quickly,"how is the leg?"
21320Ah, where are they, Morgan? 21320 Ah, you no kedge fish and eat um no more, eh, Mass''George?"
21320Ah, you say so now, sir, because help came, and we were saved; but how would it have been if the Indians had got the mastery, as they nearly did? 21320 All''long side dat tree?"
21320Am I to pull?
21320Am I to send word back that you will give up tamely, and submit to this demand?
21320Am I to tell him that?
21320An Indian cry?
21320An''s''pose she wo n''t, sir?
21320And I told you to hoe down between those yams, did n''t I?
21320And Mass''George not flog poor lil nigger?
21320And carry massa down to the boat?
21320And how is our Sarah?
21320And if he has, what then?
21320And if they come shall you shoot, father?
21320And if we do not?
21320And so that''s where you live, is it, my fine fellow? 21320 And suppose the Indians came?"
21320And the boy?
21320And the bundle?
21320And then, father?
21320And what are we to have to eat by and by, when we get hungry?
21320And what are you going to do with him?
21320And what do you think?
21320And will the other people fight too?
21320And you have too?
21320And you say that several of the gentlemen have been buying?
21320And you, Pompey?
21320And, I say, you do n''t think we had better go, do you?
21320Another rattlesnake?
21320Any stone or slate, sir?
21320Anything the matter? 21320 Are both your pieces loaded?"
21320Are they going to stop?
21320Are they there?
21320Are you a doctor?
21320Are you better?
21320Are you coming too, father?
21320Are you mocking him, sir? 21320 Are you sure, Pomp?"
21320Are you sure? 21320 Are you sure?"
21320Are you sure?
21320Arn''t done nuff yet, Mass''George?
21320As fast as a tomahawk can fly? 21320 Asleep?
21320At the front?
21320Back again, sah?
21320Be? 21320 Better, my boy?"
21320Better, my lad?
21320Better? 21320 Birds?
21320Black?
21320Bruton? 21320 Build it up again, father?"
21320Build them a hut?
21320Built up? 21320 But are we to be doomed too, man?"
21320But bring nothing else, sir?
21320But do n''t you think it''s because some one is there?
21320But do n''t you think some one ought to have come in a boat to help us?
21320But do we want to make the creature savage?
21320But do you mean to say you have n''t washed this morning?
21320But do you think we shall escape?
21320But had n''t we better try and get across or down the stream?
21320But how are we to get a light?
21320But how are we to manage? 21320 But how did you get it?"
21320But is Mass''George quite sure?
21320But is it nearly morning, Pomp?
21320But my father-- yours-- and Morgan?
21320But not my kitchen? 21320 But now we have caught him?"
21320But s''pose he''s only shamming, sir, and jumps up, half kills me, and runs?
21320But shall we have to give up to them?
21320But suppose they keep creeping near us under shelter, father,I said,"and shoot?"
21320But that does not matter, does it, father?
21320But the Indians; you have seen them?
21320But the things in the house, sir?
21320But what are you going to do with the alligator?
21320But what for?
21320But what have you found?
21320But what um mean''bout de dark night in cottum drawer?
21320But where are the hooks and lines?
21320But where''s the nest?

21320Now,I said,"where do you think the river is?"

21320Seriously, sir? 21320 Shall I call to him?"
21320Shall I fetch a rope, sir? 21320 Shall I get through and open that port, sir?"
21320Shall I go on, sir?
21320Shall I say you''re going to sheer off?
21320Shall I send Morgan to you, father?
21320Shall we go or stay?
21320Shall we hoist them into the boat for you?
21320Shall we try and carry him up to one of the sheds, sir?
21320Should not we have heard them or seen them, if they were?
21320Should you, my lad? 21320 Slipped off?
21320Small schooner in the river?
21320So he is,I said;"what difference does his skin make?
21320So your hurts would n''t let you sleep, eh?
21320Somebody? 21320 Sorry for me?"
21320Sorry? 21320 Stop?
21320Surely, Bruton, you would not advocate such a plan after all that we have done?
21320Take care? 21320 Take him home?"
21320That for the blacks?
21320That you, Master George?
21320That''s not long,I said;"why, how long are you?"
21320The General gives his consent,said my father,"provided that you are very careful; so the next thing is, how do you propose to go?"
21320The Indians gone?
21320The Indians? 21320 The box?
21320The hut washed away?
21320The message brought in by one of the scouts?
21320The powder, Morgan?
21320The woman? 21320 Then I need n''t be ashamed of feeling a little alarm-- I mean being a bit of a coward now, father?"
21320Then if the water compels us to leave here, do you think you can support your wife to that tree, if I swim beside and help you?
21320Then the Indians wo n''t come now?
21320Then they are aggressive, Preston?
21320Then they do not propose to reimburse us for all that we have done, or to find us another settlement?
21320Then we may go, father?
21320Then were you hurt too?
21320Then what do you say to a bit of sport?
21320Then when may we go, father?
21320Then why did n''t you do them?
21320Then why did you say that?
21320Then why did you try, sir?
21320Then why not fire at once, sir?
21320Then why they tie us up?
21320Then you are happy here?
21320Then you do think they''ll come back, sir?
21320Then you mean to come?
21320Then you think they will attack us, father?
21320Then you will all fight in defence of your hearths and homes?
21320Then you will come?
21320Then you wo n''t go?
21320Then you would not be afraid to stay here and take our chance? 21320 There, Master George, what d''yer think o''that?
21320They are good marksmen too,he said; and then, turning to my father, I heard him whisper,"That woman-- wound dangerous?"
21320They only mean to be friendly, father, do they?
21320They will try and fire that?
21320Think it''s any use to go any farther?
21320Think so?
21320Think the master really means to go back and build up the house again?
21320Thinking, George?
21320Thinking?
21320Tired and hungry?
21320Tired, Pomp?

21320Well then, a bear?
21320Well then, what are you looking for?
21320Well, George, how many fish?
21320Well, George,said my father,"you hear this; what do you say?"
21320Well, Han,I said, as he smiled at me in his quiet, grave way,"you''ve got a gun, and are going to fight then?"
21320Well, Master George, boy, what is it?
21320Well, Morgan,said my father, as he came up,"how soon do you think we might plant a few creepers about the house?
21320Well, Preston,said the General;"shall we have to give up?"
21320Well, are you hungry then?
21320Well, do you hear it?
21320Well, gentlemen,he said,"what have you to say?"
21320Well, what can you see?

21320Well, who car''for old Injum? 21320 Well, why are you looking on in that contemptuous way?"
21320Well,I said, after a few minutes, during which I had been eating with very poor appetite,"why do n''t you eat, Pomp?"
21320Well,whispered Morgan,"what do you make of it now?"
21320Well?

21320Why, George,said my father, as we went on,"what''s the matter?"
21320Why, George-- Ah, that arrow was near; did it hurt you?
21320Why, Pomp,I said, laughing,"what does this mean?"
21320Why, Pomp,I said, sadly,"suppose the Indians come, what then?"
21320Why, Pomp,I whispered, joyfully,"how did you manage that?"
21320Why, how could I, if he swallowed me?
21320Why, how could I?
21320Why, how could you manage?
21320Why, if I no do dat, an de ole''gator get hold ob de head, he get hold ob you, an where you be now?

21320Why, you did n''t fire on the Indians, did you, squire?
21320Why?

21320Wish I had--"Mass''Morgan like Injum come burn down house''gain make more?
21320Without waiting for orders from our officers?
21320Without you, father?
21320Wo n''t Mass''George come in de wood?
21320Wo n''t take his clothes long to dry, Master George, will it?
21320Wonderful? 21320 Would Indians lie down and crawl?"
21320Yes, I pull; but what Mass''George say''fore dat?
21320Yes, father, but--"Well?
21320Yes, father, we''ll be very careful; and we may go soon in the morning?
21320Yes, father,I said, unwillingly;"but do n''t you think you can cure him like you did me when I was so ill?"
21320Yes, father; we heard every word-- didn''t we, Morgan?
21320Yes, inteet,he said;"and look you-- I say, Master George, was it meant for a choke?"
21320Yes, missie; you call a me?
21320Yes, sir; the powder,he replied, turning and giving me a nod before looking back at his companions and saying sadly--"Then you do mean it, my lads?"
21320Yes, sir; you have come on board to buy slaves, I suppose, with the rest of us?
21320Yes,I used to say;"but when?"
21320Yes,said the General,"a false alarm, and-- What is it?"
21320Yes-- what is it?
21320Yes; I say, ca n''t you sleep?
21320Yes; but is n''t it too early?
21320Yes; but where?

21320You do n''t know?
21320You do n''t mean the slaves?
21320You do n''t think he''ll die, Morgan, do you?
21320You do n''t think, do you, that those two blacks, Master George--"What, like chickens?
21320You got anyfing to eat? 21320 You have?
21320You heard what Colonel Preston said, George?
21320You like shoot um?

21320You there?
21320You think so, then?
21320You tie too tight, Mass''George?
21320You told Hannibal to hoe them-- your father?
21320You too, my lad?
21320You want Pomp go drown self, Mass''George?
21320You want poor ole Pomp go drown self?
21320You will be present at the meeting, of course?
21320You will see to that, sir?
21320You will try and serve me, will you not?
21320You wo n''t let it go?
21320You would like to go back to your own country?
21320You''ve come back then?
21320You, Master George?
21320You, Morgan?
21320Your answer?
21320` Done,''she says;` did n''t you see him put his head round the door and grin at me?'' 21320 ''Pose um find de boat''ticking in tree, dat be summer- house too?
21320--Where are those clothes?"
21320Ah, would you?"
21320Ah, you try burn you''tick an''tummle in de fire, would you, sah?
21320Ah, young Bruton, what do you say to this?"
21320Altered your mind?
21320An eagle?"
21320An''de''gator get um?
21320And for what?
21320And suppose they come?"
21320Are n''t afraid of him, are you?"
21320Are you wounded, boy?"
21320As soon as I got outside I was accosted by Pomp, who came up to me, saying--"Leg quite well now?"
21320Ask me?"
21320Asleep?
21320At that moment the sentry laid his hand upon my shoulder, and said softly,"Is he playing tricks with us?"
21320Been in?"
21320Better chain him up in the shed, had n''t I, or he''ll be off?"
21320Better, Mass''George?
21320Big alligator has n''t got him, has it?"
21320But I did not let her see it, and said quietly--"Lost two more of the chickens?"
21320But I say, Master George, you did n''t feel so bad as that, did you?"
21320But could we get across the river in safety, and make our way along the farther bank; or could we swim down?
21320But has n''t any one been up to the gate or brought a message?"
21320But he knew that on him lay the task of saving us all, and he said cheerfully--"You can easily swim that, Hannibal?"
21320But how?
21320But just then my father raised his head, saw me standing there disconsolate, and said aloud--"Would you very much like to come, George?"
21320But my father?
21320But tell me, Pomp, how was it all?"
21320But tell me; why did you go back home?"
21320But what''s the harm?
21320But, look here, Master George, speaking fair now, what is the good of Injuns?"
21320By the way, how is Bruton?"
21320Ca n''t have such games as this at home in the old country, eh?"
21320Ca n''t you see I do n''t want you?"
21320Can not it be peacefully settled, for the sake of all?
21320Can nothing be done?"
21320Can you hold him?"
21320Can you make out anything?"
21320Can you walk now, George?"
21320Catch terrapum, and take de gun?"
21320Dah, see dat?"
21320Dah, you''tan''till, will you?
21320Dat lunchum?"
21320Dat nonsense, Mass''George?
21320Dat you, fader?
21320Did I ever flog you?"
21320Did I look very much frightened?"
21320Did he have to fight?"
21320Did n''t you see a man fall from the roof right into the flames?"
21320Did you catch it?"
21320Did you ever see two cocks fight?"
21320Did you think so, Master George?"
21320Did you want him to buy something to help in the garden?"
21320Do n''t think better carry um inside?"
21320Do you ever want to go back again?"
21320Do you hear me?"
21320Do you hear?"
21320Do you know anything about them?"
21320Do you know one bite from a fellow like this will kill a man?
21320Do you know what Bruton will say?"
21320Do you know what sort of a snake it is?"
21320Do you know your waiting to get those things made us nearly caught by the Indians?"
21320Do you understand?"
21320Do you want to fall in or upset the raft?"
21320Eh, my lads?"
21320Every one else here''s doing it, so why should n''t we?"
21320Feel chilly?"
21320Get up the tree?
21320Go back to the old country?"
21320Going to get a gun?"
21320Going to kill us, Mass''George?"
21320Going to stop or go, sir?
21320Gone down to the boat?"
21320Got hold?"
21320Got two more, have n''t you?"
21320Hannibal, you can easily reach there?"
21320Have n''t you heard?"
21320Have you forgotten the powder-- the magazine?"
21320He was silent for a few moments, and then he said, cheerfully--"Come, what did the Latin writer say about a man defending his own country?"
21320Hear anything?"
21320Hear dat?"
21320Hear that?"
21320Here comes Pomp all in a hurry about something.--What is it?"
21320Here, Master George, my dear boy, what does it all mean?"
21320How are you now?"
21320How can men be such fiends?"
21320How could an Indian be there?"
21320How could he go leading you into danger like that?"
21320How did you manage to kill him?"
21320How is your wound?"
21320How many are there in this?"
21320How many dat make?"
21320How many?"
21320How near shall I stand to the alligator when I shoot?"
21320How soon we get home now, Mass''George?"
21320How um tumble down den?
21320How we get um back now?"
21320How you like be bite, sah?
21320How you like feel de shot, eh?
21320How''s the hand?"
21320Hurt?"
21320I cried, turning to him;"you there?"
21320I cried;"a real wild bear?"
21320I cried;"where are you going?"
21320I cried;"will you promise never to do it again?"
21320I exclaimed suddenly;"the women and children?"
21320I exclaimed;"what have you been doing?"
21320I said, dolefully;"who can sleep at a time like this?"
21320I say, Master George, think he''d come off black?"
21320I say, though, you do n''t want Pomp any longer?"
21320I say, what are they all coming close up to us for?"
21320I suppose you are Master George?"
21320I thought;"go in and scold them both, or wait and see if they put the things back?"
21320If I did the Indians would n''t come, nor the Spaniards neither-- you said it was Spaniards did n''t you?
21320If master did n''t mean to have slaves why did he buy them?"
21320Interesting?
21320Is Hannibal there?"
21320Is any one protecting the palisade between the two points attacked?
21320Is your gun loaded?"
21320Just as it is needed most?"
21320Keep ask say--`Are you suah?''
21320Know where it is?"
21320Let go, will you, sir?"
21320Let me see; what was next?"
21320Let''s see;''bout how long is he?"
21320Make um cry?"
21320Make you feel dicklus, eh?
21320Mass''George not glad to hab nice hot cake?"
21320Mass''George on''y eat one duck- bird?"
21320Mass''George tink Pomp got wunful eye?"
21320Mass''George, you dah?"
21320Mass''George, you go''top seep all day?"
21320May Pomp go, Mass''George?"
21320My father shook his head and Morgan went on,"The other gentlemen are going aboard, one after another; why do n''t you go too, sir?"
21320My life?
21320My reverie was interrupted by Pomp, who said briskly--"Now, Mass''George, what you tink?"
21320Nice country is n''t it, only we''ve got some ugly customers here.--Sure they ca n''t understand, Master George?"
21320No alarm, is there?"
21320No fess um here?"
21320No get duck for breakfass, eh?"
21320No,"I said;"how can I see through this terrible darkness?"
21320Not nice things to tackle, are they?
21320Now I ask you, Master George, how can I get well with such goings- on as this?"
21320Now then, what can you see?"
21320Now then, you are n''t afraid, are you?"
21320Now where I put dat amnisham, Mass''George?
21320Of what are you thinking?"
21320Oh, I say, Mass''George, done um''mell good?"
21320Oh, my head''?"
21320On''y feel mad, eh, Master George?"
21320Pash water, and--"Then with a sudden fierce change of manner--"Run, Mass''George-- run-- quick-- what gone long dem Injum?"
21320Remember that old rotten tree?"
21320S''pose people do n''t go mad after being bit by boys?
21320Say, shall I kill him at once?"
21320See that?
21320See there?"
21320See what?
21320Seen Pomp anywhere?"
21320Set fire to the house?"
21320Shall I go first?"
21320Shall we leave them and go?"
21320Shall we run into the woods?"
21320Swim dat?
21320That big black is n''t going to die, is he?"
21320The Indians came by here then?"
21320The Indians must be there within view, I felt; but why did no arrows come; and why did not my companion plunge at once into the forest?
21320The boat?"
21320The one Hannibal carried down?"
21320Their fire?"
21320Then I heard him whisper,"You do n''t think she''s very bad, do you, sir?"
21320Then arose in a low voice--"Master George, dear, could you get here?"
21320Then he drew another deep breath, and his voice and manner were entirely changed, as he cried out--"Do you hear, Morgan?
21320Then he stepped forward, looking from one to the other, and said, bluntly--"Which of you is captain?"
21320Then why did n''t you have some food as soon as you got back?"
21320Then you killed all the Indians?"
21320Then, turning to the boy, I whispered,"Now then; tell me once more, can you see the Indians?"
21320Then,"What powder do if''park send um off?"
21320There was another pause, and I heard my father draw a deep breath, and then speak sharply--"Well, George,"he said;"how do you feel for your swim?"
21320There was the boat, but in what condition was it?
21320There, do you see how we are getting ready for your Indian friends?
21320They do n''t know what Englishmen are, do they, little nigger?"
21320They made a great big mistake, and when they get back to Flori-- what is it?"
21320They''re the poison ones, and-- yes, what did I tell you?"
21320Think I should break him?"
21320Think he''ll come right?"
21320Think it''ll come to a fight with them, sir?"
21320Think they''ll come back, sir?"
21320Think you can hold him?"
21320Understand?"
21320Want to speak to me?"
21320Was all our effort to result in failure after all?
21320Was it all true?
21320Was n''t pleasant, look you, was it?"
21320We have no key to those shackles; could you turn them with a file?"
21320We''re non- combatants, eh?"
21320Well, Morgan, can you find anything to eat?"
21320Well, have you been all round?"
21320Well, look again; can you see anything about it?"
21320Well, what do you say-- shall we go back to our beds?
21320Well, what head for at night but sleep um?
21320Well, what of him?
21320Well, why do n''t you go on?"
21320Well, young Bruton, so they burnt you out, did they, last night?"
21320Well?"
21320Wern''t''fraid, were you?"
21320Wha my fader too?"
21320Whah?"
21320What Mass''George going to do?"
21320What a summer- house?"
21320What are they-- Injuns?"
21320What are you going to do?"
21320What are you laughing at, lad?"
21320What did he come in young mass''bath for?
21320What do dat for?"
21320What do you mean about being as bad as that impudent black boy?"
21320What do you mean by frightening a man?
21320What do you mean-- a flood?"
21320What do you mean?"
21320What do you mean?"
21320What do you say, George, are you sorry you came?"
21320What do you say, Master George?"
21320What do you say?"
21320What do you want?"
21320What does Captain Bruton say?"
21320What for, Master George?
21320What for?"
21320What for?"
21320What for?"
21320What had he got?
21320What is he going to do?"
21320What is it to be?"
21320What is it?
21320What new mischief has he been at now?"
21320What noise was that?"
21320What poor lil nigger do wif ony one arm?"
21320What say?
21320What somebody would do that?
21320What was to be done?
21320What we do now?"
21320What will it be now?
21320What you do widout Pomp?"
21320What''s all that firing about?"
21320What''s that, sir?"
21320What''s the matter, father?"
21320What''s the matter, lad?"

21320When are you going to search for it?"
21320When shall you be ready to start home to begin rebuilding?"
21320When we go home again?
21320Where are they, sir?"
21320Where are you?"
21320Where are you?"
21320Where are your mountains here?"
21320Where be um?"
21320Where else can they go, my lad?"
21320Where have I got to?

21320Why do n''t master say,` Get the best bedroom ready, and put on clean sheets''?
21320Why do n''t you bellow?

21320Why no go now and kill all Injum?

21320Why not go now, Mass''George?"
21320Why not?

21320cried my father, angrily;"buy my fellow- creatures for slaves?"
21320cried my father, smiling;"have you two gone and been married?"
21320cried the colonel, excitedly;"is he wounded?"
21320cried the general;"you saw them?"
21320exclaimed Preston, hoarsely;"then you are not badly hurt?"
21320he cried;"` what you mean, you nast''black young rascal, bring dat ting in my clean kitchun?
21320he said;"come to see me?"
21320said my father, eagerly, as if he suddenly recollected something;"was it that night when you dragged me back, as the arrows flew so fast?"
21320said my father, in the cold, stern way in which he generally spoke then;"what is it?"
21320said my father;"a point from which to attack?"
21320said the General;"did n''t you know?"
21320she cried,"why was n''t I told before?"
