42307How de do youngsters?
42307How do you feel now, youngster?
42307How do you feel, Frank?
42307I believe I had something of a fight with that moose, did n''t I?
42307I say, Frank, where are you?
42307I wonder if that is what Brave heard?
42307I wonder what the folks will think, when they see us coming home in this rig?
42307I wonder where Brave is?
42307Is it a wonder, then, that I hate an Injun? 42307 It was a narrow escape, was n''t it?"
42307Now, what shall we do with these rascals?
42307See here, youngsters,exclaimed the trapper, as the boys came up,"what''s all this yere?"
42307Shall we give them their guns?
42307The''Ole Settler''do you mean?
42307There warn''t no time for talkin''or sayin''how de do?'' 42307 Wal, youngster,"said Dick,"how do you feel now?"
42307Wal,said Uncle Joe, as they arose from the breakfast- table,"what do you youngsters kalkerlate to do first?"
42307Well, we got the moose, did n''t we?
42307What are you boys doin''out in these woods this time o''night? 42307 What did you youngsters fetch them ar tarnal varlets back here for?"

42307What have you got on them sleds-- your plunder?
42307What made you do that?
42307What should I do? 42307 What''s the matter with George?"
42307What''s the matter with the dog, I wonder?
42307What''s the matter, I wonder?
42307Where did they go to?
42307Where did you buy that skin?
42307Who''s that a comin''there?
42307Why did n''t you muzzle him?
42307Why do n''t you shoot?
42307Why not?
42307Why not?
42307Why, Frank, how are you?
42307You do n''t s''pose them Injuns stole the traps, do you?
42307You do n''t s''pose you can tell by the looks of a red- skin''s track which way he is goin'', do you? 42307 ''Ar the black mustang any better hoss than the gray king?'' 42307 ''_ Carrajo!_ what does this mean?'' 42307 And what could he have done if he had been disabled in the depths of those woods, so far from any human being? 42307 As I was rising from the table, the hostler entered the room, and said:''What be the matter with your''orse, sir?
42307At length the latter said:"They stole your traps, did they, an''shot the hound, an''you follered''em up an''ketched''em, did you?"
42307But he gave you fits, did n''t he?
42307But where''s that trap gone to?"
42307But where''s the black fox you were going to bring back with you?
42307Dick replenished his pipe and prepared to rest, after his tale was completed, when Frank suddenly inquired:"Dick, how came that scar on your face?"
42307Did you catch him?"
42307Did you receive my letter?''
42307Do n''t you know that that bar could have chawed you up in a minit?"
42307Do yer see this?
42307Do you see that scar on his flank?
42307Does n''t it make a fellow feel comfortable, to lie here and listen to the storm, and know that he is securely sheltered?
42307Goin''to ketch the painter, ai n''t you?"
42307Harry shrugged his shoulders, and answered:"If you are going in for a fight, just count me out, will you?
42307Have n''t we tried that game?
42307He be so lame he can''ardly walk?''
42307He looked them over and over several times, and finally inquired:"Frank, do you know what has become of all my fox traps?
42307How do you come on now, youngster?"
42307How long could he and Brave have withstood his attacks?
42307How many of them do you suppose there were?"
42307I guess you are a stranger in these parts, ai n''t you?''
42307I guess you hain''t hearn tell of him, have you?''
42307In a few moments, George and Archie entered, and the latter inquired:"Who caught that white buck?"
42307Now, I s''pose you think I war beat at the Injun''s own game, do n''t you?
42307Purty soon some one yelled out:"''Who goes there?''
42307Supposing that a pack of those fellows should get after us to- night, would n''t we be in a fix?"
42307The guide answered the salute, an''asked the man, in Spanish:"''Are you alone, Josà ©?''
42307Then Bastian, with five hundred men, will be here at midnight?''
42307Then making a slight motion toward me, which, I made believe I did n''t notice, he asked:"''But the American?''
42307Wal, purty soon I poked my head over a log, an''peeked through the bushes; an''what do you think I seed?
42307What do you say?"
42307What have you got?"
42307What if his gun had missed fire, or he had only wounded the panther?
42307What shall we do?"
42307What would you have thought if we had follered them thieves for a week afore we found''em?
42307Which road is he going to take?''
42307Why did n''t you come arter me?"
42307Wo n''t you give a fellow some thing to eat?"
42307Would you have any objections to good company?''
42307You got my letter all right, you say?
42307You see, youngsters, where that big limb stretches out?
42307You''re always getting a fellow into some scrape or other, ai n''t you?"
42307what''s that?"
42307what?
42307what?"
42307whither bound?''
43590''General, your men do n''t appear to work well to- day?'' 43590 Do you know of any instance where volunteer troops have successfully stormed works as strong as those which defend the approach to Secessionville?"
43590Do you mean Governor Stevens?
43590Have you a thousand men at your disposal, and suffer yourself to be set at defiance by a wagon- master? 43590 Have you any reason to believe that the result in the present case will be different in its character from what it has invariably been heretofore?"
43590Is Governor Stevens your father? 43590 Now, how are we here as at a post?
43590Should I speak to you of things that happened long ago, as you have done? 43590 What effect would it have on the Sound should nothing be done until May or June?
43590A principal chief of the lower Spokanes said:"Why is the country in difficulty again?
43590After a pause of some minutes Governor Stevens said:--"I will ask Ambrose where is Victor?"
43590Again, what is the interest of the Hudson Bay Company?
43590And is not something due the_ morale_ of his troops, which was almost systematically broken by the blunders and disasters of this unhappy campaign?
43590And what was the duty of those having forces at their command?
43590And why should I hide anything?
43590Are their wishes to be disregarded?
43590Ask yourself this question to- night:''Will not God be angry with me if I neglect this opportunity to do them good?''
43590Can more be said for the gallantry and devotion of the soldiers, or the hold upon them of their heroic leader?
43590Can you presume, sir, to be able to correct your opinions by a hasty visit to the Sound for a few days?
43590Could the country expect it?
43590Did I write you that his conduct on the battlefield was witnessed by the rebels with great admiration?
43590Did we propose to hold a council with them, or ask them for advice?
43590Do Alexander and Michelle speak in the same way?
43590Do you agree to this treaty?--the treaty placing the Pend Oreilles and Koo- te- nays on this reservation?
43590Do you think, because your mother was white and theirs black, that you are higher or better?
43590Do you want peace or war?"
43590Does Victor mean to say that he will neither let Alexander come to his place nor go to Alexander''s?"
43590Does he not know that Mr. Burr and another man went to Fort Benton the other day?"
43590Does he prefer the Yakima reservation to that of the Nez Perces?
43590Dumb as a dog?
43590Ever since I have been thinking, How will the governor speak to us?
43590Foiled in their plot, why did they then so quickly agree to the treaties, which up to that time they had so bitterly spurned?
43590From what you have said, I think that you intend to win our country, or how is it to be?
43590Governor Stevens:"Alexander, did you agree yesterday to give up your country and join Victor?"
43590Governor Stevens:"Does Victor want to treat?
43590Governor Stevens:"How can Moses say I am not going to the Blackfoot country?
43590Governor Stevens:"I will ask you, my children, if you fully understand all that was said yesterday?
43590Have all of you talked straight?
43590Have we not told your messenger yesterday that our hearts are not Cuyuse hearts?
43590Have you not always done well?
43590He had labored only for their good as their friend, and could they wonder that he was grieved at this state of affairs?
43590How long could his scanty force of nine regiments, outflanked and overborne, have resisted the avalanche?
43590I ask Alexander, are you willing to go on the same reservation with the Flatheads and Koo- te- nays?
43590I ask Michelle, are you willing to go on the same reservation with the Flatheads and Pend Oreilles?
43590I ask Victor if he declines to treat?"
43590I ask Victor, are you willing to go on the same reservation with the Pend Oreilles and Koo- te- nays?
43590I ask again, what is the interest of the Hudson Bay Company?
43590I ask them, Why are you in such a hurry to have writings for your lands now?
43590I ask you now, can you all agree to live on one reservation?
43590I said to the Sun chief,''What is the reason you are getting into trouble?
43590In the late sad, glorious fight where were you?
43590Is he, as one of his people has called him, an old woman?
43590Speaking Owl, a Nez Perce chief and the mouthpiece of Looking Glass, now spoke up and said,"Will you give us back our lands?
43590Suppose you show me goods, shall I run up and take them?
43590That not an Indian in the whole course of the war has been killed by the whites except in battle?
43590The question was, What should be our route home?
43590Three Feathers:"Why do n''t you get up and say you are all going with Governor Stevens?
43590Was he to remain idle and let the storm come?
43590Was not his life wonderfully preserved?
43590What are their hearts to us?
43590What do you, Victor, Alexander, and Michelle, think?
43590What is it that he wants?
43590What is the reason we are talking about treaties?
43590What is the reason?
43590What is the remedy for this state of things?
43590What means of defense had the enemy at this juncture?
43590What more can I do?
43590What should he do?
43590What was your reply?
43590When Looking Glass asked you,''How long will the agent live with us?''
43590When did you kill me?
43590When we were enemies I always crossed over there, and why should I not now when we are friends?
43590Where are they?
43590Where are they?
43590Where is his heart?
43590Where is the heart of Young Chief?
43590Which is the one?"
43590Which of these chiefs[ pointing to the Blackfeet] says we are not to go there?
43590While the Nez Perces are going straight, why should they turn aside to follow others?
43590Who ever finds the Highlanders behind?
43590Who that knows Jackson''s career can doubt his will and power to seize the golden opportunity?
43590Why are they not hanged?
43590Why are those Americans alive now?
43590Why ca n''t Mansfield be sent here, and both Hunter and Benham relieved?
43590Why can not you manage to keep peace?
43590Why did he not say to Alexander yesterday,''Come to my place''?
43590Why did he promise to come here, then, to hear our talk?
43590Why did you not answer and say''Come''?"
43590Why did you not inform me of your presence in the Sound on your arrival at Steilacoom?
43590Why did you not say,''Yes, come to my place''?"
43590Why do n''t you wait until a treaty is made?
43590Why do you come here and ask three chiefs to come to a council, while to the head chief and the rest you say nothing?
43590Will they go to the valley with Victor, or to the mission with Alexander and Michelle?
43590Will you accept my offer?"
43590Would you have expected it?
43590Your old men have spoken, and where is the man will turn his back on it?"
43590or is not Victor a chief?
43590you might have replied by asking the question,''How long have you been head chief of the Nez Perces?''
23744Ah, my young friend,she said, turning gracefully toward him,"so you are pleased with my coffee- urn?
23744Battles?
23744But did you know that our ship was wrecked in the norther? 23744 Can you make out her flag?"
23744Can you walk? 23744 Captain Kemp,"he said to his companion,"will you be good enough to tell me why we are in the Nicholas Channel?"
23744Captain,he asked,"when can I go ashore?"
23744Carfora?
23744Chase, sir?
23744Did you not know? 23744 Do n''t you think the Mexicans have been lively enough since we left Perote?
23744Do you hear that? 23744 Father Crawford,"exclaimed one of the grown- up young men,"what is this about another letter from Edward?
23744Father''s regiment?
23744From there to there,said Lee,"how is it?"
23744General Tassara,said Ned,"is n''t our army bringing one?"
23744Have you any idea where we are just now?
23744How did you happen to be here?
23744How did your folks get so much of it?
23744How on earth are we to do it?
23744I knew you were wounded, but are you not getting well?
23744I saw the flags,he said,"and I heard some firing, but what on earth are they rejoicing over?
23744I shall not do so,said Ned, with his heart in his throat"But may I not tell them that General Santa Anna has checked the invasion at the north?
23744I wonder if there is anybody in there now?
23744I''m all right, but is n''t it awfully dangerous for you to be here?
23744Is he here? 23744 Is he in the city?"
23744Is it?
23744Letter?
23744Lieutenant, may I go now?
23744Meade,he demanded of one of them,"what do you think of that?"
23744Oh, my dear young friend,said Señora Tassara,"were you with the American army in all those battles?"
23744Seems to me I''ve heard of him somewhere, but who is Zuroaga? 23744 Señor Carfora?"
23744Señor,he asked, as soon as they were in the cabin,"how can I send a letter home?
23744Spy?
23744Think?
23744War?
23744Well, Ned Crawford,he muttered to himself,"that''s it, is it?
23744Well,hesitated Ned,"I understand that you must go, but what am I in danger of if I should stay here?"
23744What are they all here for?
23744What has become of them? 23744 What has brought him all the way from Vera Cruz?
23744What have you ever done against him?
23744What in all the world can he be up to?
23744What is that?
23744What is your errand to General Morales?
23744What on earth are we to do, then?
23744What on earth can be the matter?
23744What on earth do you mean?
23744What on earth do you want?
23744What''s in my head that I should overlook that? 23744 What''s that?"
23744What,he asked himself,"if any accident should touch off those barrels of powder down there?
23744Where are you from?
23744Where away?
23744Where did you come from? 23744 Where did you get them?
23744Why would n''t she?
23744Why,he thought,"if Santa Anna was so completely victorious, did he not make General Taylor surrender?"
23744You did n''t hit centre even then, eh?
23744You do n''t like the British flag, eh?
23744You have, have you?
23744A British ship chased by a Yankee cruiser?
23744A band of those mountain robbers came one night, and we had an awful fight with them--""Did you kill any of them?"
23744Are all the nations making a naval rendezvous in the Gulf of Mexico?"
23744Are either of the señoras at home?
23744Are there a great many of them?
23744Are those cannon coming right on into the city?"
23744Are we to chase?"
23744Are you a prisoner?"
23744Are you here, too?
23744Are you here?
23744Are you too tired to set out immediately?
23744As soon as they were shut in here by themselves, he turned fiercely upon the young despatch- bearer and demanded:"Have you said anything to those men?
23744At the end of another mile, he was saying to himself:"That field yonder is tobacco, is it?
23744But what did you mean about our being in the Nicholas Channel?
23744But what on earth are grenaditas and mangoes?
23744But what was all that in comparison with this in the way of strange and wild adventure?
23744Can we not help him?"
23744Can you not say that you are glad Señor Carfora was not drowned?"
23744Company?
23744Did you hear that?"
23744Do they know how to fight?
23744Do you believe in ghosts?
23744Do you know where that is?"
23744Do you really think the Americans will capture our capital?
23744Do you see that?
23744Do you suppose they have been wrecked?"
23744Does he know anything?"
23744Go ashore and hide?
23744Has anything happened?"
23744Has he come?
23744Has our army come?
23744Have you seen him?"
23744Have you told a living soul what you know about these tidings?"
23744Have your gringo generals been beaten again?
23744He may appear to come peaceably, but do I not know him?
23744He may do it, may he not, Aunt Mercedes?"
23744He merely responded:"Is that so?
23744He was shortly on deck again, to be heartily greeted by Captain Kemp with:"Hullo, my boy, where are all your ships of war?"
23744Hear that firing?"
23744How about the war?
23744How are you here, señor?"
23744How are you?"
23744How are you?"
23744How can that be?
23744How did that happen?"
23744How on earth did they come through the blockade, and how did they know where you are?"
23744How shall I ever get down?
23744How soon are we to set out?"
23744How''s mother?"
23744Is he on board?"
23744Is he your son?"
23744Is it not grand?"
23744Is she hurt?"
23744Is that where you live?"
23744Is the city taken?"
23744Is there any more news from the war?
23744Is there any news?"
23744Is this you?
23744Is your father''s regiment of that kind of men?"
23744It''s your first long ride?
23744May I be assured that you will then be ready to come to my house?"
23744Ned, did you have any idea that you were sitting over a Mexican powder- magazine?"
23744Not many minutes later, the two vessels were within hailing distance, and the stranger spoke first, in a tone of evident anxiety:"What ship is that?"
23744O Ned, my son, where are you?"
23744Oh, but am I not glad that General Zuroaga gave me that old telescope?
23744Oh, but wo n''t it be grand fun to make a complete tour of the mountains and of all the Pacific coast of Mexico?
23744Ought I not to say that he is now marching down to defend the capital, and that he is going to strengthen your army at Vera Cruz?
23744Stiff with so long a ride?
23744THE MOUNTAIN PASSES"Grant,"said Captain Lee,"what did Crawford say to you about that Cerro Gordo road?
23744Then we made our way through the mountains, and came here, and has n''t it been a curious kind of life ever since?
23744Then, however, he lost his prudence for a moment, and anxiously inquired:"Were any of you drowned?"
23744There could be no further conversation, for the_ Goshhawk_ was sweeping on out of hearing, but Ned Crawford exclaimed, indignantly:"Our army defeated?
23744This is the way that Cortes and his cavalry scared the Indians, is it?
23744Tired out?
23744UNDER FIRE"Where am I?"
23744WHAT DOES IT MEAN?"]
23744Were you there, in any of these battles?
23744What am I to do next?"
23744What are we to do now?"
23744What are you going to do?"
23744What did they come here for?
23744What do they mean by that dangerous cargo in the hold, and our being captured by American ships of war?
23744What do you think about it?"
23744What do you think of that?"
23744What do you want of me?"
23744What does it mean?"
23744What does it mean?"
23744What has that got to do with it?"
23744What if this horrible war should prove to be really a blessing to us?
23744What is it?
23744What is it?"
23744What shall we do?
23744What ship is that?"
23744What''s that for?"
23744What''s that?
23744Where are they?"
23744Where did you come from?"
23744Where have you been?
23744Where have you been?"
23744Where''s your friend Grant?
23744Which of these is my horse?
23744Who can tell?
23744Who dreamed of seeing you here?"
23744Who will it be?"
23744Why, then, he asked himself, should any of them, like Anita, for instance, be killed by cannon- shot or torn in pieces by bursting shells?
23744Will you be ready?"
23744Will you take care of him?
23744Would n''t it be likely to break and let go of an anchor, if it were pulled at too hard by a gale of wind?
23744Yankee boy that can speak Spanish, and that knows every corner of this miserable city?
23744You are back, at last, are you?
23744[ Illustration:"DO YOU SEE THAT?
23744and she held up both hands in astonishment, as she responded:"Letters from the United States?
23744are they getting ready for a fight?"
23744came back from them, half cheerfully, but one voice was heard to grumble:"It''s all right, is it?
23744exclaimed Ned, as he sprang away, but he went with a curious question rising in his mind:"What if a cable were more''n half cut through?
21240A gaol from which there can be no escape-- need I name it?
21240Air this chile awake, or only dreaming? 21240 Am I not robbing you?"
21240An''whar did he git it? 21240 And anyone could pass out below?"
21240And so you must go to- morrow, Senor Francisco?
21240And the route you were to take?
21240And there''s no other by which the valley may be entered?
21240And you are really determined on Miranda''s death?
21240And you say the path leads down between them?
21240And you think of coming this way?
21240Are they Comanches, Walt?
21240At what?
21240But how do you intend to keep them from following us? 21240 But how is it to be done without scandal?
21240But surely you do n''t mean to kill them in cold blood?
21240But surely, Colonel Miranda,he said at length,"there could be no danger of such an event as that you speak of?"
21240But what can he do to us?
21240But what does he want with me?
21240But why do n''t you both have it, then?
21240But why should we lose a moment?
21240But why should you stay for him?
21240But why, Colonel Miranda?
21240But, Pedrillo,he inquires, after a pause;"what did he say to them?
21240Can Uraga have sent him back on any errand?
21240Can he read?
21240Can we be sure it''s you, Walt?
21240Colonel Miranda, is it you?
21240Colonel Miranda-- your name, I believe-- need I attempt to express my thanks for so much generosity? 21240 Did I not say,"continues Wilder,"that I seed two men''mong the Injuns wi''ha''r upon thar faces?
21240Did it particularise the time you expected to reach Albuquerque?
21240Do you call that good news? 21240 Do you intend accompanying Don Francisco?"
21240Do you mean the man or the mule?
21240Do you not see the mistake you have made?
21240Do you reflect what your life is worth?
21240Do you think it''s been that, ayadante?
21240Do you think that danger to your life would be unhappiness to her''s-- your death her life''s misery?
21240Do you think you are able to ride?
21240Does the senorita pronounce with the same determination?
21240Does your comrade understand Spanish?
21240Drowned? 21240 Elsewhere, then?"
21240For what purpose?
21240For what reason, senor? 21240 Gone down the Pecos?
21240Gone-- whither?
21240He is going home first, and will then come back?
21240He must die?
21240He''s a stranger to you, then?
21240How d''ye devise, then?
21240How did this happen, Jose?
21240How do you mean, Frank? 21240 How is the thing to be done?"
21240How should he know?
21240How so, colonel?
21240How so?
21240How?
21240How?
21240I am alone here-- what am I to do?
21240I guess we may spring the trap? 21240 I hope you''ve placed him so that he can command a good view of the valley below?"
21240I spoke of events, incidents, and coincidences-- didn''t I,_ ayadante_?
21240I thought you had arranged it in a different way?
21240In what did they differ from other savages? 21240 In what respect?
21240In what way?
21240Is it yourself?
21240It he d to be did; thar war no help for it,said Wilder, as he hurriedly turned towards his companion, adding:"Have you got the guns charged?"
21240It will take them-- how many days to reach the Tenawas''town, and how many back to the Pecos?
21240It''s been a long, tedious tramp, has n''t it? 21240 Kin he hev been eatin''it?
21240Kin it be night?
21240Kin it be possyble? 21240 Need you ask, senorita?
21240Not yet, I should think?
21240Now, Don Gil Uraga,demands the lady, on being left alone with the intruder,"what have you to say to me that should not be overheard?"
21240On that trail, indeed?
21240On what, Don Francisco?
21240On what?
21240Senor coronel,he says,"how much will your excellency give to know where my master now is?
21240Should we go down after him, or stay here till he comes up?
21240Something gone down yonder, and not yet dead?
21240Suppose they get sight of us before we''re near? 21240 Sure, how?"
21240Take up the trail o''a Tenawa Injun? 21240 That''s a strange tale,"rejoins Roblez, adding,"And Barbato?"
21240The Dona Adela?
21240Then what''s taken him down the Pecos? 21240 They are to die, then?"
21240Till the flood falls? 21240 To do what?"
21240To settle in the country?
21240To the chief, then?
21240Valerian?
21240WHY COMES HE NOT?
21240Well, suppose I clump them altogether, and give you the story in a simple narrative-- a monologue? 21240 Well, you desired a pretext, did n''t you?"
21240Well, you saw him deliver the letter to Barbato?
21240Well,_ ayadante_,he begins, as soon as they are safe beyond earshot,"what''s your opinion of things now?"
21240What about these two-- our Mexican friends?
21240What air we to do?
21240What are we to do?
21240What are you referring to?
21240What can they be doing out here? 21240 What d''ye say, cap?"
21240What delays Valerian? 21240 What do they intend doing next, think you?"
21240What do you mean, Walt?
21240What do you say, boys?
21240What does that mean? 21240 What hev ye noticed?"
21240What is it, Hernandez?
21240What is it, Mr Hamersley?
21240What is it, Nat?
21240What is it, colonel?
21240What letter?
21240What mean you, senor?
21240What mean you, senor?
21240What news, Valerian?
21240What other object,_ amago mio_?
21240What river?
21240What sort of man is he?
21240What subject, Walt?
21240What words, Gil Uraga?
21240What''s best for us to do?
21240What''s kep him ahint, I wonder?
21240What''s this I hear,_ alferez_?
21240What''s your way, Cully?
21240What?
21240When do you propose starting?
21240Where am I to place the prisoners, colonel?
21240Where did you find it?
21240Where have you been all this while, my good man?
21240Where is Pedrillo?
21240Where, then, brother?
21240Where, then?
21240Where?
21240Where?
21240Who do you think they are?
21240Who do you think?
21240Who is Valerian?
21240Who''s to haul up?
21240Who, Colonel Miranda?
21240Who?
21240Who?
21240Who?
21240Whom may we expect? 21240 Why ca n''t you anyhow?
21240Why do you say so, doctor?
21240Why do you wish that?
21240Why not become her husband and let the brother live?
21240Why? 21240 Wo n''t our worthy friend Miranda be surprised when he sees us riding up to the door of his_ jacal_, with these fifty fellows behind us?
21240You have him at hand?
21240You intend sending them to some other?
21240You intend setting them free?
21240You intend taking them there dead, do you?
21240You mean only the men-- Don Valerian and the doctor?
21240You reached the Tenawa town?
21240You say so?
21240You see that scar on my cheek?
21240You think of leaving them by the way?
21240You think so? 21240 You think thar''s a chance for us to get out o''hyar?"
21240You will? 21240 You''ve stationed a look- out as I directed?"
21240_ Quien- viva_?
21240''Tain''t much kit?
21240''Twas he?"
21240A hand?"
21240A''n''t that what ye mean, Kurnel Meoranda?"
21240A_ Tejano_, was his reflection-- what should he know of the sword?
21240After all, how could he?
21240After all, is it only a vision of his brain, distempered by the long strain upon his intellect, and the agony he has been enduring?
21240After all, what harm in letting Miranda live?
21240After all, what will be his reward?
21240Air you all churged an''riddy?"
21240Am I myself, or somebody else?
21240An''no sign o''himself to be seen?
21240An''why shed thar be, supposin''we both gie our mutooal promises one to the tother?"
21240And is the noble Texan-- guide, ranger, and hunter-- thus sadly to succumb?
21240And now, what were they to do?
21240And the old doctor, Don Prospero?
21240And what have they been doing there?
21240And what is to be his reward?
21240Are you sure he will find his way back to this place?"
21240As a preliminary, may I ask if you are skilled in the use of the sword?"
21240Boys, do any o''ye recognise this hyar shootin''iron?"
21240But do n''t you think, Walt, you might learn what you want to know without any interpreter?
21240But do you think Miranda will make any resistance?"
21240But how do you counsel me to act?"
21240But no; why should he?
21240But the other; and she-- where, where?"
21240But then, where is the lava that should have been projected from it?
21240But what right, Colonel Miranda, have you to interfere?"
21240But what were all these dangers to that we were leaving behind?
21240But where is it?
21240But why do you ask these questions, Colonel Miranda?"
21240But why do you ask, Walt?"
21240But why do you talk of leaving this place?
21240But, as the guide had truly said what good could he do them by staying and getting killed?
21240By cards?
21240By dice?
21240By the bye, how much do you think the plunder ought to realise?"
21240By whom?"
21240By- the- way, where is the colonel now?"
21240Ca n''t ye guess what they''re at, Frank Hamersley?"
21240Can he have heard it?
21240Can he tell anything of what is intended with them?
21240Can the wounded man have crawled away?
21240Can you do that?"
21240Comanche?"
21240Come with me, caballero?
21240Coming up to her, he says,--"Senorita, your brother has told me you wish to speak with me?"
21240Could any other charm me?
21240Could they?
21240D''ye see the anymal he''s on?
21240D''ye see this gun?"
21240D''ye think ye kin hold out thet long by swallerin''a bit o''the buzzart?"
21240Dare they enter it?
21240Did Colonel Miranda''s sister regard it in that light?
21240Did he communicate it to the survivors?"
21240Did n''t I say that, Frank Hamersley?
21240Did n''t I tell ye so?"
21240Did n''t I tell you at the time he would move heaven and earth to have revenge on you-- on both of us?
21240Did n''t you observe nothin''queery?"
21240Did n''t you spy''mong the lot two or three that had ha''r on thar faces?"
21240Did they think of surrender?
21240Do n''t ye hear them palaverin?
21240Do n''t ye see our two horses are still safe?
21240Do n''t ye see that thar''s two bends in''em?"
21240Do n''t ye think the old doc ked do it?
21240Do n''t you obsarve them wroppin''somethin''round the heads o''the arrers-- looks like bits o''rags?
21240Do n''t you remember, Barbato, one of our horses gave out there, and was left?
21240Do you know, Frank, I''ve been hevin''a dream''bout them Injuns as attacked us?"
21240Do you see that little house, out yonder on the other side of the river?"
21240Do you suppose the troubles are over, and we can return safely?
21240Do you understand me?"
21240Drawing one of the chairs up to the side of the bed, the ex- Ranger sits down upon it, saying,--"Wal, Frank, ai n''t it wonderful?
21240El Norte?"
21240Else why brought together in such a strange place and by such a singular chain of circumstances?
21240FOES OR FRIENDS?
21240For what shed I shoot the harmless critter that''s been carryin''him?
21240Hamersley first breaks silence, asking the question,--"Did you get my letter?"
21240Has anything happened to him?"
21240Has he become so attached to the place as to intend prolonging his sojourn there?
21240Have you spoken to her upon the subject?"
21240He does not seek it, only turns to him who wears the spectacles, saying,--"Doctor, is he, indeed, dead?
21240He is not wounded?
21240He puts the interrogatory,--"How long are we to remain here?"
21240Here it is, and here we are; but where is he?
21240How came Colonel Miranda there, and why?
21240How could it be else?
21240How could it be otherwise?
21240How far is it to the point where the river runs below?"
21240How has it got into the hands of the Horned Lizard?
21240How is their trail to be taken up?
21240How is''t wi''ye?"
21240How was Horned Lizard to know himself-- that is, in time to have sent word to you?
21240How was it to be decided?
21240How were they to get out again?
21240I can get to Santa Fe by a month''s travel, I suppose?"
21240I see no cloud, unless you mean that spot on the horizon, scarce so large as the crown of my hat Is it that you mean?"
21240I thought your master had gone clear out of the country?"
21240If he refuse-- if both do so-- what then?
21240If he were to come back and find me gone--""What need that signify, caballero?
21240If it be thus what course are they to pursue?
21240If the latter, where is she, my poor sister, going to find the arm that could protect her?"
21240If you''re not going to try your prisoners by court- martial, in what way are your words to be made good?
21240In hers, how could it?
21240In rejoinder the adjutant asks,--"You are still resolved upon the death of the prisoners?"
21240Is he on return to the house, which they know is now untenanted, and, if so, with what intent?
21240Is he the owner of the voice heard in dialogue with Walt Wilder?
21240Is it a sonorous deception, caused by the sough of the cascade or reverberation from the rocks?
21240Is it all a dream?
21240Is it hunger?
21240Is it likely the fiend will be contented to take her brother back and trust to the decision of a legal tribunal, civil or military?
21240Is it possible that any of them can have got away?"
21240Is it thirst?
21240Is n''t it so?"
21240Is she safe?
21240Is the journey to end in their death?
21240Is''t a dream, or not?
21240Manuel should know something about their whereabouts?
21240May I ask, colonel, whom we may expect to come that way?
21240May he be the owner of all?
21240Maybe you''ve got him too?
21240My brother has not been sick?
21240Not pursuers, I take it?"
21240Now, Frank, what am I ter do?
21240Now,_ senor ayadante_, do you comprehend my scheme?"
21240Oh, senorita, is n''t he--""Is n''t he what?"
21240On the body of his comrade?
21240On what errand?"
21240On what have they been banqueting?
21240Or is it but the_ mirage_ of the desert, that has so oft already deceived him?
21240Or war it themselves, the cussed kannybals?
21240Or was the speech but an allusion, born from the still lingering distemper of his brain?
21240Pedrillo drowned?"
21240Perhaps I may now hear it?"
21240Perhaps one dearer?"
21240Poor Pedrillito-- what of him?
21240Resuming speech, he asks,--"How do you counsel?"
21240Ride out from the smoke- cloud, or remain under its favouring shelter?
21240Say, cap, what''s fetched ye out hyar?"
21240Shall I draw the trigger?"
21240Shall I usher him in?"
21240Shall we do it?"
21240Shoot or hang?"
21240So you think, Cully, you can take up the trail at night, supposing it to be a dark one?"
21240Soon there would be no smoke-- and then?
21240Still, what ked he do stayin''hyar by himself?"
21240Suppose we stay awhile and see?"
21240Suppose we try boys?"
21240Supposing they should see us, and retreat by the opening below?"
21240Surely it must be his party, spoken of in his letter?
21240Surely these men will not murder us on the way?"
21240Surely you can deal with him as you think proper-- a refugee, a rebel?"
21240Surely you do n''t intend to have them shot without form of trial?"
21240Surrender, and become the prisoner of Uraga?
21240The Ranger Captain, who presides, puts the interrogatory thus:"Well, boys, what are we to do with them?
21240The latter is Walt Wilder, but the former-- who is he?
21240The rebels have had it all their own way, and I am sorry to tell you that the colonel, your brother--""What of him?
21240The third pair that presents itself to be made man and wife-- who are they?
21240Under the circumstances, what is he to do?
21240Was it the pleasure of once more beholding what he lately thought he might never see again-- the light of day?
21240Was it this alone that was keeping him still and speechless?
21240Was there still a chance to escape in the opposite direction?
21240We can not help feeling regret for his fate; but, under the circumstances, what else could have been done?
21240We''re boun''to go under, if we don''t--""Do n''t what, Walt?"
21240Well, what of it?
21240Were the words she had so thoughtlessly spoken unfelt, and without any particular meaning?
21240Whar can the critter hev come from?
21240Whar did ye git the gun?"
21240Whar is he now?
21240Whar''s the bit o''blue sky we seed?
21240What am I to do?"
21240What are these captives, and who their captors?
21240What are we to do?"
21240What but this can it be?
21240What can be keeping him?"
21240What can it mean?
21240What chance for them to hold the hut against a force of fifty armed men-- soldiers-- for if the whole of the troop is returning there is this number?
21240What depth was it?
21240What do I ask?
21240What do ye think o''t?"
21240What do you mean, senorita?
21240What else can be there?
21240What else can the two men do?
21240What has he heard?
21240What horses can be there, save their own?
21240What is it,_ cabo_?"
21240What is life worth without her?
21240What is to be the import of his interview, unexpected, unsought, apparently commanded?
21240What ked we do wi''''em?
21240What keeps him behind, I wonder?"
21240What kin it mean?"
21240What leads ye to think so, Frank?"
21240What mattered it to him how the commandant employed his time, or where it was spent, so long as he got his_ sueldo_ and rations?
21240What security against breaking his word when we get to Albuquerque?"
21240What sees he before him?
21240What shed we do to him?"
21240What signifies all his success in villainy?
21240What sort of a scrape?
21240What then?
21240What think you of my charmer?"
21240What was he to do?
21240What was the nature of its contents?"
21240What was yours, Walt?"
21240What will the bad be?"
21240What''s the use o''my stannin''shilly- shally hyar?
21240When will that be?"
21240Where can Pedrillo be?
21240Where can they have gone to?
21240Where has she come from?
21240Where is he?
21240Where is she?
21240Where is the Mexican conducting them?
21240Where shall we string them up?"
21240Whither is she conducting him?
21240Whither?
21240Who can tell what may arise in the midst of that mysterious desert?
21240Who could not help loving him?"
21240Who is he?
21240Who is she?
21240Who knows, but that Uraga may yet discover our hiding- place?
21240Whose is it?"
21240Why ca n''t she an''me be tied thegither''ithout any sech senseless saramony?
21240Why do you wish me?"
21240Why have they attacked us, I wonder?"
21240Why should he die?"
21240Why should he?
21240Why should two lives be sacrificed for one?
21240Why went he?"
21240Why, what is it, Hernandez?
21240Why?"
21240Why?"
21240With such and many similar deeds since, is it likely he would look with any other than a lenient eye on the doings of Gil Urago, his imitator?
21240With whom can it be?
21240Wo n''t you, Lolita?
21240Ye elements, in whose ennobling stir I feel myself exalted, can ye not Accord me such a being?
21240Ye wo n''t, will ye?"
21240You all declare for hanging?"
21240You are Manuel-- mule driver for Don Valerian Miranda?"
21240You can save him?"
21240You do n''t s''pose I rushed into this hyar hole like a chased rabbit?
21240You have arranged with the Horned Lizard to make a counterfeit attack upon our camp-- to shoot down or spear our poor devils of soldiers, if need be?"
21240You have been lost upon the Llano Estacado?"
21240You have no companions to care for you?"
21240You know that, I suppose?"
21240You know what I tolt ye, Frank?"
21240You mean to marry her, I presume?"
21240You remember what size the boulder was?"
21240You speak of throwing dust in their eyes-- how, Walt?"
21240You will not stain your soul with murder?"
21240You will?"
21240You wo n''t mind that, my pet?
21240You would not have him drink out of the bottle?"
21240You would not have one leave a fellow creature to perish?"
21240You''ve asked the question,` Must he die?''
21240You''ve been there before?"
21240are those the two peaks you spoke of?"
21240asks Uraga, on coming forth from his tent,"is everything ready?"
21240but who''d iver think o''eatin''turkey buzzart?
21240d''ye think ye kin go a little furrer now?"
21240is that so?"
21240kin it be possyble they''ve been--?"
21240no cigarittos?
21240or has something arisen to make him discontented with the company he has been keeping, and so determined to get quit of it by hanging behind?
21240she cries out in the anguish of conviction,"can this be true?"
21240she goes on addressing the dogs;"do n''t you see the caballero is not an Indio?
21240she repeats in a compassionate tone,"you are suffering, sir?
21240some of our fellows from the cuartel?
21240the man Manuel?"
21240what does it signify?
21240what ked they a been doin''down thar?
21240what''s that?
21240what''s the use o''my threetenin''?"
