25803Why did n''t you say so before?
25803Why do I what?
25803Why do you?
25803Why not?
25803Why the dickens should n''t I have a sister?
25803Why''good- bye,''dear old Hamilton''s sister?
25803Will it be a dangerous trip?
25803Will there be any fighting?
25803Will you allow me to produce scientific an''expert evidence?
25803Would it be indiscreet to ask what your visitors wanted?
25803Yet if I send them away,said the king,"how shall I protect this land against the warriors of the Akasava and the evil men of the swamp?
25803You ca n''t open them, can you?
25803You called me?
25803You did n''t by chance discover anything about the missing cultures, Bones?
25803You do n''t echo that wish?
25803You got the wireless to work?
25803You have heard of Soemmering''s process?
25803You have n''t a sister, surely, dear old officer?
25803Your King and your country,he said,"pay you seven and eightpence per diem----""Oh,"said Bones, a light dawning,"you mean_ work_?"
25803_ Now_ are you ready?
25803Also of the Ochori, who are four days''march across good ground?"
25803And are not we M''joro folk men?
25803And then, after a little pause:"Will you be hung or shot?"
25803And where does the passage lead to?"
25803And who are these?"
25803And would it not be good service for a woman of my house to die in your hut?"
25803And, if a man does not believe, how may you believe him?
25803Are n''t you well?"
25803But how did you get into your room?"
25803But what is your trouble with Bones?"
25803By the way, how did you get this letter?"
25803Did I not say that I would raise spears more wonderful than the M''gimi?
25803Did n''t I issue explicit an''particular instructions about grub?"
25803Did n''t I tell you, you jolly old slacker, to have everything ready by daybreak?
25803Do you think he is ill?"
25803Does the leopard fight the lion or the lion the leopard?
25803Feelin''better, sir?"
25803For does not the river saying run:"The last measure of a full granary is a measure of blood"?
25803For what other man would foresee with his wonderful eye that rains would come?
25803Go up and ask the Bomongo, drop in on the Isisi, speak to the Akasava, an''what will they say?
25803Ham, dear old feller, do you remember when I was brought down from the Machengombi River?
25803How on earth is he going to feed them, Bones?"
25803How''s that, umpire?"
25803I''ll tell you a precious secret-- not a word to anybody-- honest?"
25803May not these take the spear again?
25803Not so much as a mustard plaster-- what was I to do, dear old Miss Hamilton?"
25803Now who of these is right?"
25803Now, what about conveyance, hey?"
25803O Abiboo"--he spoke over his shoulder to the sergeant of Houssas--"tell me, how many of the magic white stones of Bonesi did you put in their drink?"
25803Sanders?"
25803Sanders?"
25803Sanders?"
25803Tell me, preacher, if this is the truth?"
25803Tell me, shall my people serve my King, or shall they serve another?"
25803That''s a rippin''little bit of persiflage, Miss Hamilton?"
25803Therefore, who shall attack us since we have kinsmen of all amongst us?"
25803They led the man away, and the girl, who had been a spectator, asked anxiously:"What is wrong, Bones?"
25803Trying to mesmerize me?"
25803Was he saying nice things?"
25803What am I?"
25803What are''Hachures''?"
25803What man gave me this?"
25803What the dickens do you want leave for?"
25803What though Bones''s"hostile craft"was a dilapidated canoe, manned by one aged and bewildered man of the Isisi engaged in spearing fish?
25803What though Cape M''Gooboori was the village of that name and the"calm sea"was no more than the placid bosom of the Great River?
25803What was the general idea of the house, anyway?"
25803What was the illness, Bones?"
25803What would you do?"
25803What would you do?"
25803What would you go back for?"
25803Where is Bones?
25803Where is Bones?"
25803Who denies this?"
25803Who found''em?"
25803Who rules this land?"
25803Whose men are you?"
25803Why the dickens are you making a mystery of the thing?"
25803Why?"
25803Would you like to hear our gramophone?"
25803Yet, S''kobi, do not the Akasava and the Isisi, the N''gombi and the Lower River folk take their spears against me?
25803You do n''t suggest,"said Hamilton, with ominous dignity,"that I would defraud the public by lying as to the qualities of a deficient character?"
25803You know what I am, dear old officer, in moments of crisis?"
25803he gasped,"do you want to set Portugal ablaze?"
25803said Sanders impatiently,"what happened after all this dashing?"
37588A captain, dear boy?
37588Admiral, ye''re considerabul longer nor me in the legs and neck; could n''t ye wade out and make a dive for her?
37588All alive? 37588 An''the big ziant was doin''to kill zem all?
37588And Babs has been so good, has n''t she?
37588And did he sit down?
37588And did you go in those-- clothes?
37588And now, gentlemen,added Halcott,"can you guess to what seas my barque shall sail next?"
37588And oh, please, interesting boy,begged Eedie,"may I talk to Babs?"
37588And that is--?
37588And the sailor was dead?
37588And their strength?
37588And then he was saved?
37588And what does father do?
37588And what is your name, curious boy?
37588And where can man die better, Than in facing fearful odds?
37588And where do you live, my lad?
37588And who is Babs, you droll boy?
37588And why?
37588And ye''ve never been here once since you put up the bit of marble slab to mark the spot where_ she_ lies?
37588And you wo n''t give me Bob?
37588And you''re not drowned?
37588And you''re pretty nearly naked, are n''t you?
37588And ze axe was all tovered wi''blood and ziant''s hair? 37588 And_ me_?"
37588Are you afraid, dear?
37588Are you like me, I wonder? 37588 Are you like me, I wonder?"
37588Better than ever, daddy?
37588But they do attack you at times, these natives?
37588But whither? 37588 But will you care to land on the island we are in search of, with these fellows?"
37588But you wo n''t go to the wars again, Captain Weathereye?
37588But your family name?
37588Can the place be haunted?
37588Can you not guess? 37588 Daddy wo n''t be down for a long, long time?"
37588Deep, deep down among the rocks,she would say to Ransey,"who lives there?
37588Deep, deep,_ deep_ down,''Ansey?
37588Did n''t I tell you I''d make a man of him, Miss Scragley? 37588 Did n''t you?
37588Did she cry much?
37588Did you ever hear psychologists mention the term or feeling` ecstasy''? 37588 Did you make that pretty ship?"
37588Eh? 37588 Eh?
37588Enchanted? 37588 Father,"he says presently, as they are near to a clump of tall trees,"is n''t it just_ here_ where mother was laid?"
37588Flown quickly, father? 37588 Going on?"
37588Had your island of gold a chimney to it?
37588Halcott,said the latter, approaching the captain of the_ Sea Flower_--"Halcott, have you kept your secret?"
37588Have you noticed the glass lately, Tandy?
37588How do_ you_ know, madam? 37588 I mean, where was your gentle mother buried?"
37588I wonder will he_ ever_?
37588Is it in your power to tell us, James, where these vessels of gold were made, or where the gold was obtained?
37588Is n''t it possible to build one?
37588Is there no toast this morning?
37588Is there, for honest poverty, That hangs his head, and a''that? 37588 It was just here, was it not,"said Halcott,"where the entrance was?
37588Kaik-- kaik-- kay-- ay?
37588May I ask you a question or two, you most interesting boy?
37588May I look on while you cook?
37588Miss Nelda?
37588Never, never,''Ansey?
37588Nor the Admiral?
37588Now, would you like to go to school?
37588O Jane, are you here?
37588O daddy,she cried, kissing his weather- beaten face,"are we safe?"
37588O father,said Babs one autumn evening,"are n''t_ you_ frightened at the roaring of the sea?"
37588Of course we would stay all night? 37588 Oh, will the morning never come?
37588Oh, will ye, though?
37588Oh, ye wo n''t, wo n''t ye? 37588 Oh, you dear, droll''Rallie,"cried the child, smiling through her tears,"and so you''re not drowned?"
37588Oh, you''ve been to church, then?
37588Oh,she said,"you''s tome back, has''oo?"
37588Poor Hallie,cried Babs, sympathisingly,"does your headie ache?"
37588Secret?
37588Seen them before?
37588Shall we go below and talk a little?
37588Six''oung ladies, all stlung up by ze hair o''zer heads? 37588 Sleep?
37588So ye ca n''t see no signs o''father, or the barge, eh? 37588 So you''re very happy all of you, and always were?"
37588Stones and ashes? 37588 That wady[ lady] wo n''t take Babs away,''Ansey?"
37588The exact longitude and latitude?
37588The other shares are in the market then?
37588The ship did go to the bottom though, did n''t it,''cause I heard the water all rush down?
37588Then, cusses on you, why do n''t ye speak? 37588 There was n''t a coal mine or a factory of any kind on it, was there?
37588They are coming again?
37588They think they''re going to leave me behind, do they? 37588 Three years?
37588To- morrow? 37588 Very prettily put, Mr Davies,"said Miss Scragley;"do n''t_ you_ think so, Dr Fairincks?"
37588Was there only one?
37588Well, how''s all the family?
37588Well, mum, I could n''t go with nuthin''on-- could I, now? 37588 Well, shall I come up and bring a bigger glass?"
37588What could these have been, think you, James?
37588What do you make of her, sir?
37588What is it, old heart? 37588 What is to be done?"
37588What is your theory, Halcott?
37588What may a` call- crow''be, Halcott?
37588What mean you, Durdley?
37588What on earth can it be?
37588What think you, men,he said, looking round him,"came up with the fire and the smoke from the throat of that volcanic hill?"
37588What was it? 37588 Where is he?
37588Which dog, do you think, began the fight?
37588Who knows,said James, with far more cheerfulness in his voice than usual--"who knows but that our deliverance is already at hand?
37588Who told you so?
37588Who will be the next to die? 37588 Why do n''t you throw me overboard?"
37588Why not, Captain Weathereye?
37588Why, Tandy, my dear fellow, this is n''t a ship any more; it''s a yacht?
37588Why, Tandy, what see you?
37588Why, dear?
37588Ye mebbe do n''t see nuthin''o''father, do ye?
37588You are quite, quite sure father is n''t drownded? 37588 You do n''t mean in the canal, surely?"
37588You think, then, they will return?
37588You_ hear_?
37588` And what saw you, James?'' 37588 ` And you know this cave, Fitz?''
37588` Anything wrong, James?'' 37588 ` But why not steer northwards?''
37588` Did you hear it?'' 37588 ` Going to by- by am I?
37588` I''m not a merman, or anything, am I, mother? 37588 ` Is that what you call them, captain?''
37588` James,''I said,` have n''t you made some mistake?'' 37588 ` Never been here before?''
37588` Off, James?'' 37588 ` What are you doing, or trying to do, Charles Halcott?''
37588` What on earth,''I said once to him,` do you use the specs for, my friend?'' 37588 ` Will you speak first?''
37588''Oo''s_ twite_ sure o''zat?"
37588''Oo''s_ twite_ sure zer was six?"
37588A sailor?
37588Ai n''t got ne''er a bit o''baccy about ye, has ye, miss?''
37588An''may I enquiah if you are the-- the-- the waggamuffin who saw Miss Scwagley in the wood yestah- day?"
37588And are we all drowned?"
37588And where does your mother sleep, Ransey?"
37588And will Babs go with you?"
37588And you are sure no awful beasts have come up with long arms?
37588And-- and then?
37588Are they sharks?
37588Are ye on board, Admiral?"
37588Are you all willing?''
37588Are you not wise enough to know that, even if you procure this photograph, you will have to keep it a secret from honest James Malone?
37588Away to the woods?
37588Before now, Charles Halcott, I''ve seen a ship sunk in the twinkling of a marling- spike by a--''"` By striking against a berg, James?''
37588But could any boy, or girl either, be really poor who had so many friends in field and forest, and by the winding stream?
37588But what will you dwink-- sherry, port, champagne-- wum?
37588But where, think you, do I mean to sail to next?
37588But would the gold be of any use to them?
37588But, before going further, tell me what is your Christian name?"
37588Can a millionaire enjoy sport or play any better than you or I, reader?
37588Can it climb up and swallow us?"
37588Can you read?"
37588Consult the captain, did you say?"
37588Could we expect or dare, as a last resource, to reach the far- off land in two open boats?
37588Did_ you_ see the beautiful vision-- the lovely child?''
37588Do n''t those shoes pinch a bit?"
37588Eh?
37588Ever hear these lines, Miss Scragley?
37588Fire?
37588Food?
37588For a''that, and a''that, Our toils obscure, and a''that; The rank is but the guinea stamp, The man''s the gowd for a''that?"
37588Has I been afeep[ asleep],''Ansey?"
37588Has he a better appetite from the fact that he can afford to coax it with every costly dainty that cash can purchase?
37588Has some beautiful bird brought you a letter from home?"
37588Have you a mother?"
37588Have you ever experienced the effects of a volcanic eruption in any of these islands?"
37588Having smashed the postman with a mushy turnip?
37588His last word was` Victory;''and well may we now add,` O death, where is thy sting?
37588How best could the Crusoes repel boarders if the palisade were carried, and a rush made down the embankment with the view of attacking the ship?
37588How is it that sailors so often resemble one another?
37588How to make sure?
37588Human blood looks ghastly on white coral sands, but was Tandy to blame?
37588I am never sorry for the downfall of speculators; for, after all, what is speculation but a species of gambling-- gambling for high stakes?
37588I do n''t end in ling, do I, mother?''
37588I mean, do many save yourself know of the existence of gold on that island of blood?"
37588I''m goin''to run wild for a bit, are you?"
37588Is he more happy?
37588Is he more healthy?
37588Is n''t it just too awfully jolly for anything?"
37588Is not the image of the lady who has bewitched you indelibly photographed upon your soul?
37588Is that right?"
37588Is this all?
37588James, will you bear us company?''
37588Land, eh?"
37588Live, brother, live?"
37588May I ask if this is the doag that neahly killed the postman fellah?"
37588Mrs Mac, where are you?
37588Music been too much for you?
37588Need I tell you what they were thinking about?
37588Not so very old, am I?
37588Now will you be better than usual?"
37588O grave, where is thy victory?''
37588Physic?
37588Please, may I come again?
37588Ransey here can make his way in the world.--Can''t you, Ransey?"
37588Rum?
37588Shall the plague be stayed?
37588Shall we, reader?
37588Should they get the largest boat ready, provision her, and put to sea?
37588So you missed your old father, little lass, did you?
37588So, what would you like to be?
37588Such remarks as the following fell upon our ears at every corner:--"` Well, you''ve got back again, James?''
37588Surely the stranger sailors would dance?
37588Tell me, tell me,"wept the wee lass,"is the ship at the bottom?
37588The big haul of fish he had caught?
37588The conversation seemed to be somewhat as follows:--"You and I are about the same size, are n''t we?"
37588There''s no good in schools, Miss Scragley, that I know of, except that the flogging hardens them.--Well, lad, you wo n''t go to school?
37588Too young, Miss Scragley?
37588Was he not a guard?
37588Was it marooning, I wonder?
37588Was it the heat of internal fires, or was it terror-- I know not which-- that made the perspiration stand in great beads on their now pale faces?
37588Was there any way of accounting for this?
37588Was there nothing to break the dread stillness?
37588Were the savages all killed, and shot, and drowned?
37588Whales?
37588What about making overtures of peace to them, brother James?"
37588What could it mean?
37588What could such things as these have to do with the red man of the wild West, the solitary scalp- hunter of the boundless prairie?
37588What did he see when he woke up again?"
37588What did that signify to those determined gold- seekers?
37588What is a promise, even on oath, from such bloodthirsty villains as these?
37588What is the matter?
37588What mattered it?
37588What may be the naychure of your business?"
37588What should you propose, Weathereye?"
37588Whatever is that,''Ansey?"
37588Where do you sail from?"
37588Who can tell?
37588Who indeed?''
37588Why did it run away anyhow?"
37588Why do n''t you raise your standard?
37588Will you come and live with me?"
37588Would it not be as well, I advanced, to attempt to rescue the ladies by force?
37588Would n''t us, Bob?"
37588Would the strangers dance?
37588Would they come back again?
37588Would you dare to stab your captain?
37588Would you disobey your mother?''
37588You love the_ Sea Flower_?"
37588` Now, sir, shall we call all hands, and see to rifles and ammunition?''
37588` Why have you left us?
37588` Will I_ ever_ have a home on the green earth, I wonder, or shall I die on the blue sea?''
37588and can they talk to you?"
37588and leave Babs?
37588and will the sun never shine again?
37588at sea?
37588away?"
37588broke his head?"
37588exclaimed Eedie;"may n''t I kiss it, auntie?"
37588he began haughtily,"am I right in my conjecture that this is''Angman''s''All?"
37588he cried,` ye do n''t seem an over- lively lot here, I must say, but has e''er a one o''ye got sich a thing as a bit o''baccy?''
37588he said quickly;"where is she, and how is she, Jane?"
37588he said to himself, which being interpreted seemed to signify,"What do_ they_ want here, anyhow?
37588mother?''
37588she said, solemnly now;"does''oo fink[ think]''Ansey''as fallen in and dlowned hisself?"
37588she used to remark to herself, when she had finished saying her prayers and was preparing to undress--"ever--_ever_?"
37588the war, Captain Weathereye?"
37588what_ am_ I to do with you?''
37588why have you left the seas?
37588you here, Lord Fitzmantle?"
39061''Pon my soul, I''d forgotten my own birthday, and I have n''t the ghost of a notion what the day of the month is; have you, Barney?
39061A boy, did you say, Barney? 39061 A fluke, was it?
39061A machine gun?
39061A steamer, eh?
39061A wicked uncle, eh?
39061All well?
39061And I suppose you''ve alarmed the camp?
39061And Lokolobolo?
39061And Makoko?
39061And are there pigmies in that forest-- little men, you know?
39061And are your parents still chained to the tree?
39061And did the cratur''give ye the slip, then?
39061And go at them with a rush, uncle?
39061And is she buried under them?
39061And is that the way, sorr, they make the giants at the pantomime?
39061And they have been killed-- not dying by the sleeping sickness?
39061And what do you make of this?
39061And what sort of feeling is now consuming ye, sorr?
39061And what then, sorr?
39061And what''ll ye be afther doing yourself, sorr?
39061And where''s the pipe, sorr? 39061 And wo n''t it be aisy, sorr?
39061And you did not get a pain?
39061And you have not been attacked since?
39061Another alarm, eh?
39061Anything happened?
39061Are we on the right road?
39061Are you going?
39061Are you sure none of the other men know enough English to serve my turn?
39061Arrah thin, ye spalpeen, where''s Samba?
39061Bandoka is sure the white officers are not coming through the forest?
39061Bedad, sorr, is n''t it me that knows ye''d niver do it? 39061 Bedad, why should n''t we have a little rifle practice at''em, sorr?
39061Begorra, I would, sorr; do they deserve any betther? 39061 But Samba, uncle?"
39061But how came he here?
39061But how could you tell that in the dark?
39061But we have seen nothing of Samba; where is he?
39061But what if I never come back, Barney?
39061But what of their courts, Uncle? 39061 But what''ll we do wid the overflow, sorr?
39061But where''s the gold, uncle?
39061But who did it? 39061 Can not we get the people out uv the scoundhrel''s clutches widout fighting, sorr?
39061Can they reach Ilola to- day, coming through the forest?
39061Could n''t we do something to hould the attention uv those villains at the outpost while Samba and the chief are doing their job?
39061Could n''t we leave all the licking to him, uncle?
39061D''you see what has happened? 39061 D''you think we could do it, Barney?
39061Dead, monsieur?
39061Did I?
39061Do n''t you ever have a fit of the dumps, Barney? 39061 Do you know anything of Samba, the son of Mboyo and nephew of Boloko, one of your master''s men?"
39061Do you think it was a move of that Belgian fellow, uncle?
39061Eh? 39061 Faith,''tis Irishmen that speak the best English,"returned Barney;"did I not hear them wid me very own ears in the house uv Parlimint?"
39061Go on the stump like Gladstone?
39061Has he killed many people?
39061Have you called him?
39061He dies, O Lokolobolo?
39061He will not go yet to the Great Spirit, O Lokolobolo?
39061Hi, now, Nando, what are you about?
39061How are you now, Samba?
39061How can that be? 39061 How did they come?"
39061How did you find your way back in the dark?
39061How far now?
39061How many are the villains?
39061How many fighting men are left to escort the canoes?
39061How old is he, Nando?
39061How will you do it?
39061How''s that?
39061I suppose you are going to take us there? 39061 I suppose you are very tired now, Samba?"
39061I suppose you told him our men are not armed?
39061I suppose you''ll just say''Go and be hanged''in answer to that?
39061If he is so very sick, how did he come from the river into the forest?
39061Is it far, Lofundo?
39061Is it quite clear?
39061Is it the fifteenth Psalm? 39061 Is that Ilombekabasi?"
39061Is that the fashion uv keeping gyard?
39061Is the boy getting better?
39061It is the hand of Boloko, who whipped us and killed us, who can say how many? 39061 Just in revenge for not getting the baumba?"
39061Lepoko speaks English, does he?
39061Me fink dis plenty bad; what for man lib for hide in tree and look at Nando? 39061 Might it not be to prevent reinforcements from reaching us, sorr?"
39061Mr. Elbel? 39061 Now I wonder if he could tell us all about it?"
39061Now what are we to do with him?
39061Now, Lepoko,he said, putting himself between the chiefs and sitting on the buffalo''s head,"what is all this about?"
39061O kend''o?
39061Only what could he do, if he came?
39061Perhaps he was fishing?
39061Samba? 39061 Say, was n''t it Macaulay who said he''d write a nation''s history from its ballads?
39061Send him to Oxford?
39061Shall we admit Makole?
39061Shall we go back and send a party to cut him up?
39061Shall we let him go, Barney?
39061Spoiling for a fight, eh? 39061 Suppose the talk of gold turns out to be wind, uncle?"
39061That is the truth, Ifumi?
39061That''s the scout of Massa Barney''s who was captured, is n''t it?
39061The dog has gone too, eh? 39061 The fire is burning out; what does it matter if it burns a little more quickly?
39061The whipping is to be to- morrow? 39061 Then why not take the offensive, uncle?"
39061They taught you history at Rugby, did they? 39061 Three men will certainly be killed; are not the scouts Makoko, Lianza, and Lingombela, three of the best marksmen in Ilombekabasi?
39061Tow him, eh? 39061 True; how did you get away, Samba?"
39061Very good, sorr,said Barney;"but what''ll become uv Ilola?
39061Well, and what is it wid ye thin?
39061Well, do n''t you think that, now our numbers are reduced, it would be as well to move our camp nearer to Imbono''s village? 39061 Well, what are the lines?"
39061Well, what are you driving at, Barney?
39061Well, what is it?
39061Well, what''s become of them, then? 39061 Well, who are you, and what do you want?"
39061Well?
39061Were many of your people killed?
39061What are they singing, Lepoko?
39061What can you do, my boy?
39061What d''you mean?
39061What did I say at all at all?
39061What did he mean by that?
39061What do they say now, Lepoko?
39061What do you make of this?
39061What do you mean-- a bit of her?
39061What do you mean? 39061 What do you say at all?"
39061What do you say, uncle? 39061 What do you think of this, Barney?
39061What does that matter? 39061 What have you been doing?"
39061What have you got in those bundles?
39061What is it, uncle?
39061What is this, Makole?
39061What might that be, sorr?
39061What on earth for?
39061What was the firing?
39061What would be the good uv doing anything else, sorr? 39061 What would be the good uv it, sorr?
39061What would he be doing that for, sorr? 39061 What would ye have any truck wid Elbel''s scoundhrels for?"
39061What''s that?
39061What''s the matter with you, man?
39061What''s the matter, Nando?
39061What''s the meaning of it, I wonder?
39061What''s this? 39061 What''s to be done, my boy?"
39061What?
39061Where are they?
39061Where are they?
39061Where are you going?
39061Where is Samba then?
39061Where is he?
39061Where''s that villain Nando?
39061Which one?
39061Who are you?
39061Who is he?
39061Who is he?
39061Who on earth''s Pat?
39061Who was the chief of these bad men?
39061Why did he send you? 39061 Why do you say that?"
39061Why do you wish to leave Limpoko?
39061Why does he smile?
39061Why not say Don Quixote and Sancho Panza, uncle?
39061Why not, sir? 39061 Why, sorr, why not drop down some uv them boulders we keep for repairing the wall?
39061Why? 39061 Why?"
39061Will you tell?
39061Would it be indiscreet to ask your reasons?
39061Would you be meaning to go for them, sorr?
39061You are the servants of Mutela?
39061You did not provoke Bomolo?
39061You have another white man with you now, besides Elobela?
39061You leave to- morrow?
39061You mean that I''m deserting my ally, eh?
39061You mean that the enemy might try to divert the stream if they attacked our camp?
39061You mean?
39061You refuse me, Ngondisi?
39061You see what they are at, Barney?
39061You think so, monsieur?
39061You told me that none of the men speak English but yourself,said Mr. Martindale;"is that true?"
39061You zink so? 39061 _ Reductio ad absurdum_, uncle?"
39061''An''what would ye be afther, Mike?''
39061''An''who is it this time but that same Patsy?''
39061''Bedad,''says he,''what will have come to Biddy at all?''
39061''Catch him?''
39061''Catch what?''
39061''He that walketh uprightly----''I can not remember, Jack.--Is that boy Samba better?
39061''Is n''t it meself that''s just got a penny for that same news?''
39061''Ku?
39061''What is it ye''d be maning?''
39061--don''t ye hear him, sorr?--''what in the world will I want wid all these disgraceful lookin''objects?
39061--here Barney helped out his meaning with pantomime--"nor dream all that terrible wild stuff you have just been telling us?"
39061... are your practices legal, Mr. Elbel?
39061A directorate-- a few directorates-- a snug place at Court-- who knows?
39061And Barnio!--was it not Barnio who had led them to the stockade with that wild war- cry of his?
39061And bedad, if he''d had good things to say uv the State officers, would n''t he have said''em?
39061And besides, did he not writhe and groan with every blow?
39061And did he not try to murder ye before the fight began?
39061And how will ye go to work wid the bogie, sorr?"
39061And is n''t it all his deeds that prove it, with his whips and his forest guards-- blagyards I call''em-- and all?
39061And the white man, the Son of Heaven, wanted_ botofé_; it had some value for him?
39061And the white men of Bula Matadi-- did not they sometimes seize black boys, and make them soldiers or serfs?
39061And what could he say to convince Imbono that he was no friend of the white men who authorized or permitted such things?
39061And what would his uncle say to it?
39061And what''s this blood brother business anyway?
39061And who are you?"
39061And who is this?
39061Any other men in the hut?"
39061Are not these things happening every day?
39061Are you absolutely inhuman?
39061Arlington?"
39061As for right, what right has the Inglesa to interfere?
39061As soon as they came in sight the leader of Jack''s escort cried--"O etswa?
39061Barney, Barney, will you never come?
39061Bimeby man come down like snake, creep, creep,''long,''long; me go too, what for?
39061But Samba''s the ould wan himself at schaming; will I fetch him?"
39061But are we near Banonga, Nando?"
39061But are ye sure Imbono would be willing to have us for close neighbours?"
39061But the young fellow was certainly very polite; why not humour him by letting him talk?
39061But they knew Lokolobolo; had he not time and again brought Elobela''s schemes to nought?
39061But what can we do, O Lokolobolo?
39061But what do you think of the idea?"
39061But what does it all mean, anyway?"
39061But what on earth did the fellow want with the boy?"
39061But what thin?
39061But what was this animal they had brought with them?
39061But what was this?
39061But what will you be after doing at all, sorr?"
39061But where are the huts?"
39061But where are the people?"
39061But who are the two white men wid him, thin?
39061But who is in the litter?"
39061But why did ye not bring it, me darlint?"
39061But you talk of fighting Elbel; have you thought of the risk?"
39061But''tis the morning for Lingombela to go to the village for eggs; could he not find out what you wish to know?"
39061Can you lend me an interpreter?"
39061Can you stomach native food?
39061Could he get down the gully side, I wonder?"
39061Could he have done otherwise than he had done?
39061Could he trust Barney to continue his work if he should be removed?
39061Could he venture to build a fire?
39061Could his sudden departure from the village, Jack wondered, have been his first move in this direction?
39061Could n''t we persuade Boloko to keep his men in order-- bribe him, perhaps?"
39061Could n''t we wait an hour or two and see if he appears?"
39061Could they pick it up again-- trace him to the tree and follow him up?
39061Could this be Bula Matadi, Samba wondered, the white man whom his grandfather, the chief Mirambo, had seen long ago at Wanganga?
39061Could we rush the camp before the main body could be brought to its relief?"
39061D''you know you''ve thrown away a nugget worth I do n''t know how many dollars?"
39061Dat is de English vay-- de boxe, hein?"
39061Did not Samba say that Lokolobolo gave him his last bottle of devil water?"
39061Did the forest contain_ botofé_?
39061Did they not say the Great White Chief loved us and wished to do us good?
39061Did ye, or did ye not, eat a big supper uv anything at all last night?"
39061Did you ever see such a big man?
39061Did you explain that we do n''t belong to the Great White Chief, Nando?"
39061Do n''t the streets uv London prove it whin the County Council has been taking up the drains?"
39061Do n''t you think, Barney, a lighted candle behind the paper would make a very decent sort of bogie?"
39061Do the spalpeens think they''ll catch us napping, begore?"
39061Do ye think Barney O''Dowd would have hung out a white rag and surrindered?
39061Do you blame me now, sir?"
39061Do you know what I would do in your place, sir?
39061Do you remember I said at Banonga that I was n''t a philanthropist and was n''t set on starting a crusade?
39061Do you think anything has happened to him?
39061Does n''t it seem to you odd that Uncle says nothing about the rubber question?
39061Eh?
39061Elbel?"
39061Elbel?"
39061Even Samba, forest- bred, had barely survived the perils of a solitary journey: how could a white man expect to fare so well?
39061Even if he escaped the former, what chance was there of success?
39061For how many maimings and murders had this man been responsible?
39061For why are the niggers here not lazy, sorr?
39061Getting a little appetite, eh?
39061Had Elbel at last fathomed the secret of his water supply?
39061Had Providence, moving in mysterious ways, arranged all this-- that one should suffer for the sake of many?
39061Had Samba escaped the clutches of his enemy and got back to the fort?
39061Had Samba escaped?
39061Had he fallen into the enemy''s hands?
39061Had he to contend with a regular officer of the State as well as an official of the Concession?
39061Had his movement been detected?
39061Had his ruse succeeded?
39061Had news of the storming of the camp been carried, he wondered, by fugitives to the flotilla?
39061Had not he, Mirambo, seen Bula Matadi, the friend of the black man?
39061Had not many of them tried in vain to discover the secret which Samba would be forced to betray?
39061Had not the Arabs of the Soudan shown this?
39061Had the enemy taken advantage of the sudden flood to organize an attack in force?
39061Had the white men no fathers?
39061Has Mutela arrived?"
39061Has he not made big puddle in massa''s canoe?
39061Have you any food about you, Nando?"
39061He had never heard Pat whine; the dog barked at everything; why had he changed his manner of speech?
39061Here, Nando, are you sure of this?"
39061Him say how massa get him?"
39061How can I rush?
39061How can he help knowing of it?
39061How can we get him into the fort?
39061How can we praise him-- Lokolobolo?
39061How could the negro distinguish?
39061How could they do it?
39061How does it go on?
39061How is the rubber to be paid for?"
39061How long must he remain helpless here, unable to lift a hand in defence of the oppressed?
39061How many huts did it contain?
39061How supply the strangers too?
39061How would he find his uncle?
39061I do n''t want Uncle to fall into Elbel''s hands, but how can I stop it?"
39061I have learn dat your men have rifles; I see dem myself; dey even hold deir rifles at de salute, dey have military training, hein?
39061I shall certainly go; the question is, shall I go armed?"
39061I think I have the pleasure of addressing Monsieur Elbel?"
39061I''ve too little flesh on me bones now; what would I be if I grizzled?"
39061If he could capture the stores, would he not have the main body at his mercy?
39061If that happened, Samba wondered, would he be able to disengage himself from the tangle of branches and swim clear?
39061If the canoe did not meet with disaster from without, why not from within?
39061Ilombekabasi?
39061Is it fire?
39061Is it legal to incite a night attack on peaceable travellers?"
39061Is it legal to shoot and maim the natives as you have been doing for a hundred miles and more along the river?
39061Is it water?
39061Is n''t the cause of the negroes every bit as good as the cause of the Bulgarians or Macedonians or Armenians?
39061Is there any such freedom?
39061It was very foolish, he thought; they were both such good fellows: it was quite clear that they ought to be friends; but what was a dog to do?
39061Jack, are you there?"
39061Lepoko fink bofe make two holes-- how can do uvver way?"
39061Lokolobolo had brought water into their camp; but who had made water run in a swift river where no river had ever been before?
39061May I make you a proposal?
39061Monsieur Elbel summoned us----""Where is Monsieur Elbel, monsieur?"
39061Mr. Arlington, you are no longer a member of Parliament, I believe?"
39061Mr. Martindale-- I zink dat is de name-- have found de gold he sought?"
39061Muss see; s''pose he go fetch bad man and shoot massa?
39061Nando go to Boma with old massa; what den?
39061Nando, when shall we get to this Banonga we''ve heard so much about?"
39061Nando, where''s Samba?"
39061Nando?"
39061No father and mother!--Barnard said there was gold; why ca n''t he find it?--No, that''s not a nugget, that''s---- Only a dog, eh?
39061No mercy had been shown to them: why should they show mercy?
39061Now Mr. Nando, would you plase tell us if you ate a big supper uv maniac last night?"
39061Now, Jack, ready?
39061Of what good are knives against guns?
39061On the way the shouts of the paddlers became more coherent; what was this they were saying?
39061Only a few escaped-- they wander in the forest, who knows where?
39061Only wan thing, sorr; ye would not have any inshuperable objection to Pat, sorr?"
39061Or perhaps his eyes had deceived him?
39061Or say, Jack, d''you think we are being watched?"
39061Or would they be so much alarmed that nothing but flight would occur to them?
39061Ought he in any case to leave the fort?
39061Ought he to think of it?
39061Rubber and parrots; what next, I wonder?
39061Samba hab got Nando him knife: what for Nando no hab nuffin at all?"
39061Savvy?"
39061See?"
39061Shall I fish for that nugget?"
39061Shall we go and get some hippo meat?
39061Shall we join hands in this?
39061She gave me a screech and went black in the face, an''sure''twas for the same fun I''m here this blessed minute?''
39061Should he let them loose, to work their will upon their oppressors?
39061Should he risk all, spring overboard, and swim for the bank?
39061Should he take him?
39061So it had happened to other villages: how could he hope that Banonga would be spared?
39061So that when Barney met him as he re- entered the fort, and asked eagerly,"Well, sorr, and did the patient swallow the pill?"
39061Something must be done; yet what?
39061Suppose we shot Elbel?
39061Supposing he failed, what would happen to the hundreds of people who depended on him?
39061Surely, surely, he was not in danger-- he would not die?
39061The huts will not hold half of us; and who are you?"
39061The intruder was alone, and a negro; Why not try to capture him?
39061The other continued--"Well, monsieur, what is the position?
39061The sentries are arranged for the night, eh?"
39061Then a thought occurred to him: Why wait upon chance?
39061There are no cannibals in these days-- eh, Jack?"
39061There''s Elbel himself, do you see?
39061These people were strangers; why should they have better habitations and stronger defences than they themselves?
39061This boat''s rather low down now, but d''you think we could make a bump?"
39061Vat good is de American or de English in de Congo Free State?
39061Ve must not be indiscreet, hein?
39061Was he hurt, he wondered?
39061Was he very ill?
39061Was it a wild beast, he wondered, prowling for food?
39061Was it because Samba was going away?
39061Was it he, Lieutenant Jennaert, who was being called upon to surrender?
39061Was it possible that the crocodile, though wounded, was still following?
39061Was it possible to cut off the main body from its stores?
39061Was not his place at the fort, at Ilombekabasi, with Barney and Imbono and Mboyo, the people for and with whom he had already toiled and fought?
39061Was the fort, indeed, still there?
39061Was there much forest about it?
39061Was there not enough of it and to spare in the forest?
39061Was this the Captain Van Vorst, he wondered, who, Elbel had told him, was coming up the river?
39061Was this the end of the bright young life, so full of promise?
39061Was this villain to remain unpunished?
39061Was this, apparently his only opportunity, to be lost?
39061We''ll aim at the nearest, as you say; are you ready?"
39061Well, it does n''t raise my opinion of Mr. Elbel; you know a man by the company he keeps, eh?"
39061Well, that''s settled, eh?
39061Well, what does it mean when they return?
39061Were not the drumsticks in his village made of_ botofé_?
39061Were these atrocities going on throughout the Congo Free State?
39061Were they indeed a part of the system of government?
39061What about your bet, eh, Jack?"
39061What about your wound?"
39061What am I to do with the boy, supposing he gets better?
39061What can he do?"
39061What can we do for him, Barney?"
39061What can we do with him?
39061What can we do with him?"
39061What can we do?
39061What cared they if several of their number fell before the tyrants''rifles?
39061What chance was there of fulfilling his uncle''s wishes there?
39061What could have happened?
39061What could he do?
39061What could it be?
39061What d''ye think that little varmint has done now?"
39061What de good of anyfink?
39061What did he try to write?"
39061What did they see?
39061What do you say, Dathan?
39061What do you suggest?"
39061What do you think of this?
39061What do you think, Jack?"
39061What does he want now?"
39061What does the white man mean by talking to us?
39061What else could have delayed him?
39061What else is there inflammable?"
39061What for black boy go walk alone?
39061What for two speak Inglesa one time?
39061What for?
39061What for?
39061What for?
39061What for?
39061What for?
39061What for?
39061What had become of the boy?
39061What had startled them?
39061What has happened?
39061What has he to gain by routing the little band behind?
39061What hope was there of his parents''rescue now?
39061What if the man''s assurances were false, and there had never been any intention of seeking his father?
39061What is he doing here?"
39061What is it about wicked doers?
39061What is that?
39061What is the good of you?
39061What of the natives who for so many months had looked to him for guidance and leadership?
39061What on earth can we do?
39061What other course was open to him?
39061What was Barney doing?
39061What was Barney doing?
39061What was he doing?
39061What was it called?
39061What was this?
39061What were his chances?
39061What would be its effect on the enemy?
39061What would be the fate of the poor people committed to his charge?
39061What would happen to them?
39061What would happen to uncle''s mining venture?
39061What would have happened if ye had got knocked on the head in that sortie uv yours?
39061What would he do when morning came and yet the absent had not returned?
39061What would they do, asked Jack, when the enemy came back?
39061What''ll we do to get ready for him, sorr?"
39061What''s that?
39061What''s that?"
39061What''s the good of firing when you ca n''t take aim?
39061What''s the meaning of it?
39061What''s this?
39061Where does Leopold get his dollars from?
39061Where indeed?
39061Where is he now, Sad Elobela?
39061Where is your fire now?
39061Where was his village?
39061Where was that bright twinkling eye that looked so shrewdly out from beneath a shaggy brow?
39061Where would the white man''s authority be if this kind of thing were permitted?
39061Where''s Nando?"
39061Who are you?"
39061Who had fired that shot which had so shaken Monsieur Elbel''s hand?
