61353How do you play it?
61353How do you turn this damned thing off?
61353Huh? 61353 I do n''t suppose there''s any prospect of your signing off that claim so that I can take a little good news along, too?"
61353I wonder if General Minerals realizes that the hardy Terrestrials laboring on Ceres are limited to the Consular staff?
61353Is that the straight goods?
61353Oh, you''re buying it, hey? 61353 Oh?
61353Prior claim?

61353You''ve issued the grant?
61353Are they to be balked in realizing a fair return on their investment because these... these... adventures have stumbled on a deposit?
61353Consul?"
61353Curious, eh?"
61353Do you notice your suit warming up?"
61353Ever meet a fellow called Leatherwell?"
61353Has Mr. Mancziewicz arrived?"
61353Have you served the injunction?"
61353How about keeping an eye on me?
61353How long could you keep the suit going, Sam?"
61353I assume it will only take a minute or two to sign it and affix seals and so on?"
61353I have some news that I think will interest you--""Where are you, Retief?
61353I wonder what he''s after?"
61353In what capacity can I serve today?"
61353It was a plant, too, was n''t it?"
61353Leatherwell?"
61353Leatherwell?"
61353Put me through to your HQ, will you?
61353The address given is the Jolly Barge Hotel; that would be that converted derelict ship in orbit 6942, I assume?"

61353What brings you out in the cold night air?"
61353What consequences would arise from a grant of minerals rights on the planetoid to this claimant?"
61353What sort of deposit?"
61353What would I know about gold?"
61353What''s wrong with the screen?

25809Oh, what will I do? 25809 Pretty good folks when you''re in trouble, ai n''t they, Ches?"
25809Say, did yer see a kid go by here, Mister?

25809That, Ches,he replied,"is a matter of fifteen or twenty donkeys and an echo-- did you think it was the end of the world?"

25809You''re looking kind of owly, old man-- what''s up? 25809 You?"
25809Ai n''t I right, Mister?"
25809And after, to drive the monster with a hand?
25809Answer:"How''d I know?
25809Bend those mighty rods of steel to his will?
25809But now, what?

25809Dis spook''s hang- out business wo n''t quit, will it?"
25809Do n''t you feel well?"
25809Do you think you could stick on old Buck and ride there?"
25809Friends?
25809Going to say anything to him about it?"
25809Got the whisky, Pete?
25809Had he done this much only to be able to see his pardner die?
25809He ai n''t hurt himself, has he?"
25809How could you have been so careless?"
25809How far is it to the nearest station, Bud?"
25809How many of dem is dere?"
25809How''ll I ever pay you back?

25809Jim what?

25809Look at the knowing ears of him, will you?
25809Nobuddy''ll stop yer?"
25809Now you''ve got just four minutes by the watch; either hustle around and hunt, or drop off the train and hunt-- what''s that?
25809Now, young man, what''s the matter?"
25809Perhaps by this time-- What was that moving in the grass?
25809Picks enough?
25809Really, is your way of doing a guarantee of even bread and butter?
25809S''pose you ai n''t got any real friends for the trip?
25809So we can, old simple- heart-- but are n''t those chances all against us?
25809Sure you want to go, kid?"
25809Tell you what you could do for me, Buddy; the herd of burros is around now, if you''d round up one of them for me?"
25809Then what do you think he had the cold, cold nerve to do?"
25809Twist and shape those others?
25809Was it a trick of the tunnel, his heart sounding in his own ears, or a rhythmic beat from outside?
25809Was the man the boy''s real father?
25809Was this bitterest of blows to fall upon him when he was already down?
25809Well, what did the boy propose to do?
25809Were there any relatives?
25809What do you think?
25809What do you think?"
25809What might have happened if the boy had n''t waked me?"
25809What was he to do when a small army of punchers boarded the train and took the prisoner?
25809What was his name?
25809What was that?
25809What will I do?"
25809What''s the good of money if it ai n''t to help a friend out with?
25809What''s the matter?"
25809Who do you suppose it was, Jim?"
25809Who done you like dat, boy?"
25809Why did n''t you take care of him while you had him?
25809Why had he not answered her letter?
25809Will dey fight?"
25809Will you swear that on a piece of pork?"
25809Would you like to be forced to work in some office for just enough to live on?
25809Yer can run aroun''here all yer like, ca n''t yer, Mister?
25809Yer still here, ai n''t yer?
25809You hurt, Ches?"
25809You was bound to help your pardner, was n''t you, son?"
25809he cried, hugging up the little figure,"we''ll get him out of that, by God!--Could we haul him out the way you went?"
25809he panted,"we''ve-- had-- a-- nice-- rest-- haven''t we?"
25809he screamed to the driver,"miss_ some_ of them bumps, will you?
25809said Bud slowly,"he used a knife a foot long-- gave it to her a dozen times as hard as he could drive-- what''s your opinion?"
25809said the captain,"that man''s drunk or crazy?"
26993Afraid, are you?
26993And have n''t I?
26993And his daughter?
26993And if I do let down the rope, will you promise to depart at once the same way you came?
26993And yet why should I lose faith in the Power that has thus far miraculously preserved me? 26993 Are you really still there?"
26993Arrah, Mister Peril, do n''t every young woman be interested to know if she''s to smile on a young man or give him the cold stare?
26993Art crazy, mother, to be hustling men in public street thiccy way? 26993 But I thought, Mr. Peveril-- I mean, I heard that you were engaged?"
26993But did you?
26993But he is evidently a gentleman?
26993But how did you know it?
26993But how do you happen to be here?
26993But how on earth do they happen to know you?
26993But there is copper in that region, is there not?
26993But why not let people call the mine by its real name now, papa? 26993 But, if I''m willing to risk it why not?"
26993By the way,said the other, as he reached the door,"is your name Peril?"
26993Ca n''t I do that up there as well as here?
26993Certainly I will; but may I ask how you propose to use such documents? 26993 Did you visit the place yourself?"
26993Do n''t you think your list of questions is already long enough without adding any more?
26993Do you consider it a serious case, doctor?
26993Do you know anything about boats?
26993Do you know this fellow''s name, or anything about him?
26993Do you mind telling me what led you to choose this line of work from all others?
26993Do you refuse to go now, when I tell you that the property in question has been removed beyond your reach?
26993Does your correspondent still live there?
26993Got a flag aboard this boat, Captain Spillins?
26993Have n''t you learned anything concerning your Copper Princess yet?
26993Have you a man named Richard Peveril aboard your craft?
26993He can be both, ca n''t he, mother?
26993He did n''t commit suicide?
26993Hey, lad,cried Connell, noting her slight figure,"will you help a fellow- creature in distress by tossing down the end of a rope?"
26993How about Trefethen?
26993How are you interested in it?
26993How could that be, when you did n''t even know me?
26993How dare you insult the friend I''ve brought to this place? 26993 How long since you considered it as civilized?"
26993How so?
26993I should n''t,laughed Peveril;"but why did n''t you tell me yesterday that you were a young lady, and that your name was Mary?"
26993I wonder how much longer it would take to drop from a balloon one mile above the earth?
26993I wonder if they can have taken our logs?
26993Is it work in the mines you are looking for?
26993Is it yourself, lad? 26993 Is that your man?"
26993Lost something?
26993Not even the one of this morning?
26993Not even to tell you what a brave, bowld lad he is, and how handsome?
26993Not old man Darrell of the''Folly''?
26993Richard Peveril?
26993Richard?
26993Some more dev, hein?
26993Supposing I forbid you to do so?
26993Surely, son; and why not? 26993 Used to have, Mr. Peril?
26993W''at''s thee mean by scandalizing honest woman thiccy way? 26993 What are you chaps doing''ere?"
26993What are you doing here, anyway?
26993What are_ you_ doing here?
26993What became of the property after that?
26993What can have become of them? 26993 What does she trade in?"
26993What makes you think I am a girl?
26993What place is this?
26993What right have you to say so?
26993What should he have to tell me?
26993What was the trouble?
26993What will you take for your Copper Princess, my boy?
26993What''s t''other part of it?
26993What, then, has become of them?
26993Whatever can that bloomin''teakettle want of us?
26993Whatever could the lad be frightened of?
26993Whativer can lad mean?
26993Where are you going with that log?
26993Where did that voice come from?
26993Where does she live, then?
26993Which Princess are you meanin'', captain?
26993Which entrance-- the hole down which I was thrown, or the one through which I crawled out?
26993Which way did you come?
26993Who have gone?
26993Who is she?
26993Who is she?
26993Who is the Copper Princess, papa?
26993Why do n''t you drop the tackle and let me come up there to you?
26993Why do n''t you, if you prefer that business?
26993Why not?
26993Why?
26993Will I go back to the house? 26993 Will you go with these men on their schooner?"
26993Will you promise never to return?
26993Yes, was it not? 26993 You are, sir?
26993You did n''t really eat a rat?
26993You do n''t mean to leave me down here forever, do you?
26993You mean a coward?
26993You surely ca n''t mean Miss Trefethen?
26993Addressing herself to Major Arkell, she said:"Would you mind coming up to see my father, sir?
26993And may I inquire why you ask?"
26993And may I tell her that you are already bespoke?"
26993And now may I ask who you are?
26993Are you game to accept my offer and go in for raising that kind of fruit?"
26993Are you looking for work?"
26993As he adjusted the rope about his body, he whispered to Peveril, who was assisting him:"Who are they?"
26993As their eyes met, the new- comer asked, abruptly:"Be thy name Richard, lad?"
26993Besides, had not Mr. Peril just left his love for_ her_, and a message to the effect that he had something very important to tell_ her_?
26993Besides, was he not capable of finding his own way out of a house?
26993But was that man the person with whom he would have to deal, after all?
26993But were they not rendered useless by the double wetting he had received that day?
26993But where on earth did she come from?
26993But you are not going, Mr. Peveril?
26993But, if you do n''t know the way, how did you get into the cavern?"
26993But, now that everything is settled between us, do n''t you think we''d better prepare the blast again before we go up?
26993But, now, do n''t you think we might adjourn to the supper of which you spoke awhile since?
26993CHAPTER II PEVERIL TIES"BLACKY''S"RECORD"Are you the father of Tom Trefethen?"
26993Can I help you?"
26993Could I do less than give the first welcome to one who has done for us what Mr. Peril has?
26993Could it have been she whom I heard singing a little while ago?
26993Could she not love him a little bit in return?
26993Did ever you see the like?
26993Did he know, I wonder, that you were an old friend of mine, as well as of Mr. Owen''s?
26993Did iver any one''ear the like o''that?
26993Did n''t find any bones, did you, or evidences of a catastrophe?"
26993Do n''t you think you could get me one?
26993Do you always find such stirring times wherever you go?"
26993Do you mean by that that you hain''t got any friends now?"
26993Do you mind telling me what brought you to this section of country?"
26993Do you think you could find the entrance again?"
26993Do you understand?"
26993Else why should he still hang around, and especially in the vicinity of the cavern, where there were no logs?
26993Even if she were thus hidden, how had she gained that perilous position?--how would she escape from it?--who was she?--and where had she come from?
26993Finally the former said:"By the way, what have you on hand for to- night?"
26993First-- who am I?
26993For instance, why do you dress in boy''s costume?"
26993Fourth-- how do I propose to get away?
26993Has there been some terrible accident underground?
26993He called several times:"Are you in trouble?
26993Hear it?"
26993Here, then, was the end of all his hopes, for of what use were strength and courage in a place where neither could be made available?
26993How could that be?
26993How could they ever work harmoniously together?
26993How did it happen?"
26993How did she get here?
26993How do you manage it?
26993How infernally slow those chaps up above were now, and why did n''t they let down the rope?
26993How will I get to him?
26993I am sure that must be he; is n''t it, Mr. Owen?
26993I know I am unworthy still; but, Mary dear, wo n''t you give me one more chance?
26993I wonder how he knew that papa and I were down in that awful place?"
26993I wonder if I shall ever see him again?
26993I wonder if it can be located in the Ontonagon region?"
26993I wonder if it is worth looking up?"
26993I wonder if the old fellow who claimed the logs could have set them on to me?
26993I''ll lave him be, for was n''t it him saved Mr. Peril''s life, after all?"
26993If so, where is she now?
26993If that alone had attracted them, why had they not found it hours before, while he was asleep?
26993Illustrates the difference between one brought up and educated as a gentleman, and one destined from the first for the other thing, eh?
26993Is Peveril''s as great a folly as Darrell''s ever was?
26993Is it not sad that a fellow of such promise should in so short a time have fallen so low?
26993Is n''t thee''shamed on thysel'', thou great lump?"
26993Is the quest a vain one, after all?
26993Is there no escape from it?
26993It is all poppycock to say that education can make a gentleman; do n''t you think so?
26993Let me see, your name is Trefethen, is it not?"
26993Let me see: What were they?
26993May I present him?
26993Might it not be possible that they had come from a distance in search of water after a night of feasting elsewhere?
26993Not teetotal?"
26993Now I want to know if''Darrell''s Folly''and the Copper Princess are one and the same mine?"
26993Now what''ll I do next?
26993Now you will go back with me to the house, wo n''t you, for I am afraid to go alone?"
26993Odd name, is n''t it?
26993Of course that would necessitate the giving up of his degree, but what difference did that make?
26993Or did the name, applied in derision, rightly describe it?
26993Second-- why am I here?
26993So they anxiously awaited his answer to the question:"Have you a man named Richard Peveril aboard your craft?"
26993Splendid physique, has n''t he?
26993The one thing to be considered just now is, how am I to get out of this fix?
26993Then would n''t Mr. Owen present his friend?
26993Third-- what am I doing?
26993This thy grip?"
26993Was it gold, silver, iron, or what?"
26993Was it of any value?
26993Was their guest living among them under an assumed name?
26993Were there any other besides this daughter, Mary?
26993Were they going to keep him waiting in that beastly hole forever?
26993What be_ yous_ doing here?"
26993What could have been their object, and what can they have against me?
26993What could he mean by that, and what a very strange thing it was for a young man to say?
26993What difference will one week make?"
26993What do you think of one ninety- five for a record?"
26993What else could you be, anyway?"
26993What had gone wrong?
26993What has become of Aunty Nimmo, that I find you presiding over her domain?
26993What have I done to deserve such a fate?
26993What is he doing with that gang of murderers, I wonder?
26993What is your address?"
26993What made them start up in such a hurry and fling me down this hole?
26993What made you hate me, as you seemed to do from the very first?"
26993What will papa think when he finds them gone?
26993What you all a- doin''?"
26993What''s that?"
26993What''s that?"
26993When he had informed her, she said:"Why should you let a little thing like that worry you, papa?
26993Where are you?
26993Where did the draught that blew out my light come from?
26993Where had the rats come from?
26993Where have you been, and what have you been doing all these years?
26993Where is Mister Peril at this blessed minute, anyhow?
26993Where the divil is the back door, I wonder, for the one in front is no good at all?
26993Where will I find one?
26993Who were those heirs?
26993Who''s said aught''gainst thy young man?"
26993Why did I leave you for a single minute?"
26993Why should he, if, as is probable, he has discovered the utter worthlessness of the property?
26993Why should they have come at all to a place that could not contain a crumb of food, except the scanty supply that he had brought?
26993Why, in the name of common- sense, should he object to showing me the way out of his old cave?
26993Will I go back to Red Jacket?--and meet them as would ax me what had I done with Mister Peril?
26993Will I make another try for the cave?
26993Wo n''t you take me on trial?"
26993Wonder if I ca n''t do something to improve it?
26993Wonder what he would say to the Waldorf charges?
26993Wonder what it could have been?
26993Would it prove so in this time of his greatest need?
26993Would she not go back with him, as his wife, to the house that had been hers, and still awaited her, by the shore of the great lake?
26993Would ye mind tellin''me now where could I find this one, just for the pleasure of the sensation?"
26993You said that buildings of some sort had been erected on the property, did you not?"
26993You surely do not intend to visit the property with the hope that anything can be realized from it?"
26993You''re a fine, bold chap, ai n''t you?"
26993[ Illustration: THE TWO MEN STOOD AND LISTENED]"You do n''t think it a human voice?"
26993about my engagement?
26993and what has happened?
26993and where did she go to?
26993be iver coming back?"
26993he cried;"wherever did you come from?
26993how you propose to get away?
26993vat you do in zis place?"
26993what will I say?"
26993what you are doing down there?
26993what''s the use of telling sich things to a mere man?
26993where''s me boat?
26993why you are here?
33615A big difference between Central Park and this, eh? 33615 A pig?
33615A wild goose chase? 33615 Advice?
33615Afraid, Chet?
33615Ai n''t gwine ter tote me ter town, is yo''?
33615Ai n''t ye? 33615 Air ye fellers goin''ter speak?"
33615And he has no real claim to it?
33615And may I ask to whom am I indebted for my life?
33615And no clew?
33615And that being so, the question is, how did he manage, after he was once here, to get_ out_?
33615And what of you?
33615And what shall Paul and I do in the meantime?
33615And what''s the row, Allen, I want to know?
33615And when will that be?
33615And who is he?
33615And whyfore should I turn him over to you, seein''as how he belongs to me?
33615And you ca n''t remember if any of them were addressed to me?
33615Are there any mines in the foothills?
33615Are you alone here?
33615Are you sufficiently armed?
33615Armed? 33615 Back ag''in, hey?"
33615But how came you in it?
33615But if the captain is known wot show have we got?
33615But the thing of it is, who met him in San Francisco, and what did they do?
33615But they did not succeed, did they?
33615But what do you know?
33615But what shall we do with Bluckburn?
33615But where is he?
33615But where is the cave?
33615But wo n''t you come to our ranch with us? 33615 Ca n''t two of us ride on the mare?"
33615Ca n''t you turn over?
33615Can it be Allen?
33615Can it be a pig?
33615Can you follow the trail?
33615Can you hold him, Blowfen?
33615Clar out, do ye hear me?
33615Did n''t the buffalo touch the bush?
33615Did n''t you have a torch?
33615Did they come right down on you?
33615Did they say where they had taken him?
33615Did you ever see this cross before?
33615Did you hear what he said about Captain Grady?
33615Did you leave that door unlocked?
33615Do n''t trust me even yet, do ye?
33615Do n''t ye know I would have plugged ye on sight?
33615Do n''t you know what it is to have us able to speak a word for you?
33615Do ye acknowledge the corn?
33615Do ye see old Ephraim?
33615Do ye see them, over thar?
33615Do you mean that you will lead us without any further trouble?
33615Do you really believe he discovered the rich mine he talked about?
33615Do you remember the badger, Paul?
33615Do you see him?
33615Do you think I''ll stand sech talk?
33615Do you think we can do it?
33615Dottery, did ye hear that?
33615Goin''ter San Francisco?
33615Gone? 33615 Gone?"
33615Got him to leave San Francisco?
33615Got yer papers, ai n''t ye?
33615Have you any idea where we are going?
33615Have you any idea who the thieves can be?
33615Have you anything in the shape of a rope with you?
33615Have you been up to the house?
33615Have you found anything?
33615Have you that letter?
33615Have you that man?
33615He ca n''t be shamming, can he?
33615How are ye, Urner?
33615How did I escape?
33615How did they find their way here?
33615How did you get under the tree trunk?
33615How do ye make that out?
33615How do you feel?
33615How do you like that, you milk- and- water cow puncher?
33615How do you think he escaped?
33615How far is Dottery''s?
33615How many animiles did they git?
33615How many of them, on a rough guess?
33615Hurt? 33615 I believe you said you had the original title papers to the ranch, did n''t you?"
33615I hope he brings good news, do n''t you? 33615 I reckon you did n''t expect to see me quite so soon again, did you?"
33615I wonder how she got out of the river?
33615I wonder if we ca n''t find shelter until the worst of this is over?
33615I wonder where Dottery is?
33615I wonder where it started from?
33615I-- I-- where am I?
33615If we tell our story, do n''t you imagine Dottery will turn in and help us bounce you out of here?
33615Is that the distance to Daddy Wampole''s hotel, as you call it?
33615Is there any concealed wealth upon it?
33615Is there no name on the back?
33615It must have hurt you to land in the thorn bush?
33615Let the horse go, do you hear?
33615Me?
33615No, I do n''t recerlect thet, Allen, but hold on-- do ye suspect the cap''n o''tamperin''with yer mail?
33615Nor I. Whoever would have thought of such a thing when we left home?
33615Now, what''s to do?
33615O, Paul, what is that?
33615Oh, you do n''t really think such a thing would happen?
33615Say?
33615See here, Grady, what does this mean?
33615See those marks on his side where we tipped him? 33615 Shall we capture her?"
33615So he took most of the letters, did he?
33615So you know something of Captain Grady and our uncle, Barnaby Winthrop?
33615Stop, do you hear?
33615Supposin''we talk it over with my pard first? 33615 Supposing somebody followed us and found out the secret?
33615Supposing we do n''t care to show them to you?
33615Supposing we let Jack Blowfen take you over to the next camp and tell the men that you are a downright horse thief? 33615 That tree-- Did I go over into the hollow?"
33615The Hollow looks different in the daylight, does n''t it?
33615The buffalo are almost all gone now, are n''t they?
33615The fall hurt him,said Allen,"Look after my horse, will you?
33615The same chaps ez robbed you?
33615Then ye acknowledge thet, do ye?
33615Then you advise us to go?
33615Thet so?
33615Tramped to death by the others?
33615Watson, can you hold yonder branch?
33615We''ll rest until the worst of the heat is over; eh, Ike?
33615Well, what do you make out?
33615Well, what have you?
33615Well?
33615Were you ever caught in a buffalo stampede, Ike?
33615Whar are the others?
33615Whar''s your own horse?
33615What could one fellow do against two or more? 33615 What did you do?"
33615What do ye want?
33615What do you know?
33615What do you wonder?
33615What does this mean?
33615What does this mean?
33615What is it?
33615What is the use? 33615 What is wrong with it?"
33615What made you think of him in connection with Captain Grady?
33615What makes you so anxious for the place?
33615What matter?
33615What now, Ike?
33615What now?
33615What of Slavin?
33615What on earth does it mean?
33615What shall we do?
33615What was it?
33615What''s the matter with ye, boy?
33615What''s the meaning of this outrage?
33615What''s the reason you do n''t care?
33615What''s the trouble, did you have to shoot him?
33615What''s to do now?
33615What''s up?
33615What''s up?
33615What''s wanted?
33615When do you suppose we''ll reach Dottery''s?
33615When? 33615 Where are they?"
33615Where do you suppose the men went to?
33615Where in the land of goodness has it gone to? 33615 Where is my uncle?"
33615Where is our uncle now?
33615Where?
33615Which way did they go?
33615Who be they, Paul?
33615Who can they stand for?
33615Who is that?
33615Who is this?
33615Who were the men?
33615Who''s thar?
33615Why did n''t ye leave us in like gentlemen an''thus avoid all trouble?
33615Why should Uncle Barnaby leave the hotel in that fashion if all was perfectly straight?
33615Why should he object?
33615Will I help ye? 33615 Will you help me in this work?"
33615Will you shut up?
33615Will you stop now?
33615Will you?
33615With the buffalo all around you?
33615Wo n''t Allen be glad when he hears of it?
33615Wot did ye see?
33615Wot do yer want?
33615Wot is yo''gwine to do wid me?
33615Wot''s he puttin''his hand into his pocket fer?
33615Wot''s ter do about it?
33615Wot''s ter prevent me goin''after him, boys?
33615Wot''s the meanin''o''two healthy boys a- bummin''around the ranch sech an all- fired fine day as this yere?
33615Wot''s the trouble?
33615Would ye?
33615Would you know the spot if you were in the vicinity?
33615Would you know them if you saw them again?
33615Yes, indeed, but still-- what was that?
33615Yo''mean Saul Mangle?
33615You are not going alone, are you?
33615You are not going to sit down and suck your thumb, are you, Paul?
33615You bought the ranch, and have the papers to prove it?
33615You mean you wo n''t speak unless we grant you your liberty?
33615You say you discovered the robbery but a short while since?
33615You wo n''t budge, hey?
33615You wo n''t?
33615Your horse? 33615 An Unpleasant DiscoveryWhen do you think Allen will be back, Paul?"
33615And Allen, Paul, and Chet?
33615And he held up a scrap which bore the words:"--you and Chet can meet me and Paul----""Is it in your uncle''s handwriting?"
33615And how is that new mine, an''what kind of a trade are ye goin''to make with Captain Grady, eh?
33615And poor Allen?
33615And the young man continued:"What shall we do with the wolverine?"
33615Are you going to get down now or not?"
33615Are you not glad to see me?"
33615Arfter sech a plunge?"
33615At the four corners of the cross were the letters D A F G."What do you make of it?"
33615But had n''t we better look to our horses?"
33615But how am I to get to the railroad station without a horse?"
33615But if thet young feller saved my life why I''m----""What?"
33615But look, what is that ahead, a building?"
33615But surely, Chet, you do not regret taking that for such a purpose?"
33615But where are those villains?"
33615But where has the trail gone to?"
33615But who would be mean enough to do it?"
33615But wot are ye doin''here?
33615By whom?"
33615Come here, why do n''t you?"
33615Could it be possible that the thieves were raiding their nearest neighbor?
33615Could it be possible they suspected the claim was up in that neighborhood?
33615De ye want ter pitch me in a hole?"
33615Did n''t I hear ye talkin''it over down ter Casey''s Forks only yesterday?
33615Did not the cry come from over there?"
33615Disappearance of Slavin"What''s that?"
33615Do n''t you smell him?"
33615Do you hear me?"
33615Do you hear?"
33615Do you see those letters-- D A F G?
33615Eh, Allen?"
33615Eh, Lou?"
33615Glad to see me, eh?
33615Had that communication from Uncle Barnaby contained any reference to the valuable claim over by the Black Rock River?
33615He is rascal enough to try to locate it and set up a claim, eh?"
33615How am I to get over?"
33615How in the name of creation am I to climb up there?"
33615I mean, do you know where the men went from here?"
33615I wonder how he ever found it?"
33615I wonder what he wants now?"
33615In the sink hole?"
33615Let''s see-- we went off about eight o''clock, did n''t we?"
33615M.?"
33615O, Ike, have you word from my uncle?"
33615Perhaps you have heard of him?"
33615Say, will you watch this man if I follow Jack?"
33615Shooting a Grizzly Bear"I wonder if Captain Grady is alone or if he has a number of the gang with him?"
33615Something about Barnaby Winthrop"My uncle a prisoner about ten miles from here?"
33615Supposin''I tell yer the truth about the hull gang, does that save me?"
33615The cave may not be persackly by the pines but in sight o''them, do ye see?"
33615Then ye war carried down the Black Rock River?"
33615Understand?"
33615Urner?"
33615Was there an opening to the outer world, or was he entombed alive?
33615We''ll break thet up in a jiffy; eh, Slavin?"
33615Whar is Barnaby Winthrop?"
33615Whar''s Barnaby Winthrop?
33615What are you at?"
33615What does that mean?"
33615What does this mean?"
33615What is that?"
33615What shall we do with him?"
33615What were Chet and Paul doing?
33615What would be the use?
33615What''s best to be done?"
33615Where was he and how would he ever be able to gain the outer world once more?
33615Which way did the thieves go?"
33615Who knows but what some communication from your uncle was carried off by another?"
33615Who opened it?
33615Why ai n''t ye hum?"
33615Why, Allen, what do you mean?"
33615Will you give us some advice how best to proceed?
33615Wot brings ye here?"
33615Wot yo''know ob him?"
33615Would you fancy that?"
33615went on Paul suddenly,"I wonder if it has destroyed the marks Allen left whereby the mine is to be found?"
33615what was that?"
21726''Twas a keenly lode, did''ee say?
21726A powerful man,observed the managing director as they went out;"your clergyman, I suppose?"
21726A young fellow like you may face up against such difficulties, but what is an old man to do? 21726 All right, Bill?"
21726And are all the winzes bridged with a single plank in this way?
21726And do you neither drink nor smoke, Tom?
21726And pray what are winzes?
21726And who may that be?
21726And, pray, how many such winzes are there in the mine?
21726Any children, Spankey?
21726Any more coming?
21726Any news?
21726Any one offer more for this pitch?
21726Are you coming, Zackey?
21726Are you going to work?
21726Are you married, Spankey?
21726Are you married?
21726Are you prepared to die?
21726Are''ee safe, my dear man?
21726Aw, my dear,said Maggot, looking very sad, and shaking his head slowly,"did n''t''ee hear the noos?"
21726Ay, how many?
21726Bad still, Uncle David?
21726Bin down in the mines, I dessay?
21726Braave, thank''ee,said Trezise;"we''ve come for a drop o''brandy, missus, havin''heard that you''ve got some here, an''sure us can smell it-- eh?"
21726But can you not sell your shares in Botallack and refund with the proceeds?
21726But if you die?
21726But surely he might find employment better suited to his talents?
21726But surely you do n''t mean to use fire- arms against them in such a quarrel?
21726But tell me, Oliver, have you heard of the accident to poor Batten?
21726But would it be right,said Rose earnestly,"to sell our shares at a high profit if things be as you say?"
21726By the way, Jack,said Maggot,"was n''t it hereabouts that the schooner went ashore last winter?"
21726By the way, how comes it, sir,said Oliver,"that Cornishmen are so much more addicted to wrestling than other Englishmen?"
21726Can you really see all these places at once from Wheal Dooem?
21726D''ee knaw where he is?
21726D''ee think so?
21726Ded''ee call, uncle?
21726Did he paint landscape at all?
21726Did n''t I tell''ee to leave them things behind?
21726Did you ever travel underground in the dark?
21726Did''ee find any more daws''pon clift?
21726Do n''t you find this bad air tell on your health?
21726Do you believe it has any foundation?
21726Do you know where his house is?
21726Do you know who the girl is?
21726Do you not see them? 21726 Do you really think,"he said at length,"that the man means to do me bodily harm?"
21726Do you suffer much?
21726Do''ee?
21726Does Mr Thomas Donnithorne live here?
21726Good- hevenin'', Eben Trezise; how are_ you_?
21726Good- hevenin'', missus; how dost do?
21726Has Cuttance got off?
21726Hast fought side by side with Jim Cuttance, and then knocked him down?
21726Hast''ee found the brandy?
21726Have I?
21726Have you ever seen them at work?
21726Have you got your pare?
21726Hold on a bit, my son.--P''raps,he said, turning to Trezise,"you''d come up hum with me and have a dish o''tay?
21726How are you, Charlie my boy?
21726How are you, Jack?
21726How can you tell? 21726 How could you make so cowardly an attack on an old man?"
21726How deep does it go?
21726How does Penrose get on?
21726How far down have we come?
21726How fares my suit?
21726How in all the world did you manage to let him go?
21726How long, sur?
21726How many child''n say''ee?
21726How many children has Tom had, Jim?
21726How many children have you had?
21726How old are you, Jim?
21726How''s your son, Matthew?
21726I do wish,said the younger with a slight sigh,"that our work was more in the sunshine?"
21726I hope the daws ai n''t the worse of their ducking?
21726I say, it looks awful real- like, do n''t it?
21726I say, my dear man,asked another,"have''ee bin takin''a waalk''pon the clifts lately?"
21726I suppose that you have frequent changes of fortune?
21726I''m ready to act in any way you propose, Oliver; what do you intend to do? 21726 Is all right?"
21726Is he then so notorious?
21726Is it on the way, Spankey?
21726Is that faither?
21726Is that you, Zackey?
21726Is the sun shining?
21726Miners?
21726Nothing wrong, I hope?
21726Now, David,said he to himself,"the question is, what shall us do-- shall us keep on, or shall us knack?"
21726Oliver,said Mr Donnithorne, sitting down opposite the invalid when his friend had left, and frowning portentously,"d''you know I''m a ruined man?"
21726Pilchards been seen?
21726Pray,interrupted Oliver,"what may be the meaning of` scat''em all in jowds''?
21726So, friend,he said, with a smile,"it seems that smuggling is not your only business?"
21726St. Just, sur?
21726Sur?
21726That leaves us nearly a couple of hours to spare; how shall we spend it?
21726That, Mr Clearemout, is the man I spoke of-- what think you of his personal appearance?
21726That, sur?
21726The wrong road-- eh?
21726Their names?
21726Then I suppose I am not far from the Land''s End?
21726Then you have never seen him, I suppose?
21726Then you never loved him?
21726There''s no saying,replied Eben Trezise;"you''ve heerd as well as we of lodes takin''the bit in their teeth an''disappearing-- eh?"
21726Villain?
21726Well, Jack, what''s doing?
21726Well, Maggot,said Mr Donnithorne,"what is your business with me?
21726Well, sur,said he, without any of the bold expression that usually characterised him,"what can a man do when he''s to be well paid for the job?
21726Well, well, he and I do n''t agree, that''s all; besides, has he never expounded to you that obedience to your husband is a virtue? 21726 Well, what if I do?
21726Well,continued our hero,"I believe that your intentions against Mr Hitchin were not so bad as they would appear to be--""Who told''ee that?"
21726Well,said he, smiling,"how fares your suit?"
21726What can be the matter with it?
21726What care_ I_ for the minister?
21726What danger may that be?
21726What do un look like?
21726What do you think of Mr Clearemout''s new mine?
21726What do''ee grizzle like that for?
21726What does that pump?
21726What have we here, George,he said, rising, and fitting a gold glass in his eye--"not a portrait of Wheal Dooem, is it?"
21726What interests you?
21726What is it?
21726What say you to the Wherry Mine at two o''clock?
21726What say you, boy?
21726What says your friend?
21726What shall us do?
21726What think''ee now, my son?
21726What was that, booy? 21726 What would you say if I told you it was Miss Rose Ellis?"
21726What''s that?
21726What''s the matter with the cheeld-- bad, eh? 21726 What''s wrong with him?"
21726What''s wrong?
21726What? 21726 Where bound to this mornin'', Jack?"
21726Where got you these?
21726Which? 21726 Who is he?"
21726Why do you ask?
21726Why do you laugh?
21726Why so?
21726Why, Frankey, is that thee, booy?
21726Why, what''s this for?
21726Why, whatever brought''ee here?
21726Why, whatever shud we git into trouble''bout it for?
21726Will any one offer for this pitch?
21726Will he see-- a_ little_, sur?
21726Would it not be well at once to relieve your conscience, sir,suggested Oliver respectfully,"by giving up the things that cause it pain?
21726Yes; you have heard the story of its destruction, I suppose?
21726You do tell me that you''ve come so close to water that you''re''fraid to go on? 21726 You have heard of the Gump, I suppose?"
21726You have heard, I dare say, of the burning of Penzance by the Spaniards more than two hundred years ago; in the year 1595, I think it was?
21726You have n''t found a bunch o''copper yet, I dessay?
21726You look well for an old miner,said Oliver;"what may be your age?"
21726You mean, I suppose, the fabled land of Lionesse?
21726You''re a doctor, sur, I think?
21726Your brother Tom is at work here, is n''t he?
21726Zackey, booy, are''ee slaipin''?
21726` Hope I have n''t hurt''ee, Sampy?'' 21726 ` How so?''
21726After six or seven hours I do feel my head like to split, an''my stummik as if it wor on fire; but what can us do?
21726But why go to Penzance?
21726But, after all he is only the cat''s- paw; those who employ him are the real sinners-- eh, Mr Donnithorne?"
21726But, reader, you will say, What has all this to do with our story?
21726But, sure, a walk thither, and thence to St. Just, could not have detained you so long?"
21726Can you show me one of the particular grips or twists that are said to be so effective?"
21726Can you tell me anything of his personal history?"
21726Connected with the Methodist body, I presume?"
21726D''you see?"
21726Did I not hear you, only a few nights ago, say that you had the utmost confidence in the success of your undertaking?"
21726Do you ask,"Why all this excitement?"
21726Do you feel much pain in your head?"
21726Do you happen to know my uncle personally?"
21726Do you hear, little man?"
21726Do''ee see the boat out over?"
21726Dost a hear, my son?"
21726Going to work, I suppose?"
21726H''m-- so old Tom Donnithorne is your uncle, is he?"
21726Had I judged of you at first sight, I should have thought you a--""Well, what?
21726Have you got anything to make a bandage of?"
21726He seized her hand at this point, and-- but really, reader, why should we go on?
21726How comes it that you look so fresh?"
21726However, let me tell you that you do n''t understand these matters--""Then why ask my advice, Tom?"
21726I do confess that I do n''t half like it, but, after all, what have we got to do weth the opinions of owld aunts or uncles?
21726I question much whether you could find his match, Captain Dan, amongst all your men?"
21726I suppose you were going to say that you have heard a different account of him-- eh?"
21726I''spose I cud claim salvage on''em?"
21726If a gurl do choose to go off wi''the man she likes, that''s no matter to we, an''if I be well paid for lendin''a hand, why should n''t I?
21726Is it not something like a violation of good taste to be too particular here?
21726Is it not too bad?
21726Is that so?"
21726Just?"
21726Just?"
21726Just?"
21726May I ask what corps you belong to?"
21726May I venture to ask this favour of you?"
21726Meanwhile, where is this mine?"
21726Mr Clearemout, do n''t you know what a local preacher is?"
21726Now the question is, how are we to find him, for searching in that crowd is almost useless?"
21726Of course I do; who could fail to know him after the graphic description the lawyer gave of him?
21726Oliver at once accosted him,"Pray, sir, is your name Hitchin?"
21726Pray, what is a local?"
21726Reader, shall we follow the two knowing fellows to that shaft?
21726Shall we not behold their dear faces again when we see our blessed Lord face to face?"
21726Some of the lodes( that''s the word, is n''t it?)
21726Something may come of it-- who knows?"
21726Surely your own good sense must compel you to admit that Rose sings splendidly?"
21726There''s a certain shaft near by that has got a bad name for drinkin'', missus; p''raps you may have heard on it?
21726Tom Donnithorne?"
21726Well, Oliver, talking of explanations, how comes it that you are so late?"
21726What mean you by galloping over the country thus like a wild ass-- eh?"
21726What said he about me?"
21726What say you, Molly-- shall we convict Oliver on his own confession?"
21726What say you?"
21726What think''ee, Captain Dan?"
21726What was it?"
21726What will you have-- brandy, gin, or rum?
21726What''s the meanin''of it?''
21726Where did you pick it up?"
21726Where is aunty?
21726Where is he?"
21726Will you explain yourself?"
21726Will your head stand stepping from beam to beam, and can you lower yourself by a chain?"
21726Will''ee come to the berryin, Billy?"
21726You have heard of him, of course?"
21726a smuggling old brandy- loving rascal-- eh?
21726a_ preacher_?
21726and it might, you know, for it_ was_ a real one once, was n''t it?
21726baby gone lost?"
21726but are they not untrained men, liable to teach erroneous doctrine?"
21726cried the old gentleman, losing his temper;"who made_ him a_ judge of my doings?"
21726did I say smuggler?"
21726do miners sometimes work for a month, and receive only two shillings, or_ nothing_ as wages?"
21726exclaimed Mr Donnithorne in surprise;"are ye sure they were not smugglers-- eh?"
21726exclaimed Mrs Maggot in surprise;"what sort o''company?"
21726exclaimed one,"goin''to become an honest man, Maggot?"
21726exclaimed the youth in surprise;"did you not tell me just now that he is a very good fellow?"
21726he exclaimed after a moment''s pause;"the villain, the scoundrel-- what of him?
21726he exclaimed;"where away?"
21726he replied with a sad smile,"how can thee say so?
21726hope you''ll let John an''me have a pitch in the noo bal, wo n''t''ee?"
21726how comes it that they found out the value of them?"
21726interposed Jack,"all the_ chiar_ being on the surface, and the_ oscuro_ down in the mine, eh?"
21726interrupted Hitchin angrily,"have I not said_ can not_?
21726interrupted the old man;"then what''s the use of troubling me about it?"
21726is that you, old Maggot?"
21726is_ he_ a local preacher also?"
21726knocked down the man who saved your life, nephew?
21726my dear men, has any of''ee got a chaw of baccy about''ee?"
21726my dear,"gasped John;"have''ee lost th''rope?"
21726not hurt, are''ee, Dan?"
21726said Maggot;"go to grass to slaip, or slaip in the bal?"
21726said Oliver remonstratively,"before you were born?
21726said Oliver;"pray whereabouts do they dwell?"
21726that martello- tower- like object?"
21726the local''s family?"
21726the miner?"
21726the one painted green, and a scraggy horse with a bag hanging to its nose?"
21726what of him?
21726what''s that?"
21726why?
29818Ai n''t you never heard of her? 29818 And it''s hard on you, is n''t it, boy?
29818And so, I suppose, showing superior knowledge, you will demonstrate that the men before you were a set of dubs? 29818 And that I was to be kept above ground?"
29818And that is all? 29818 And thirty feet, about, would bring us to the seven- hundred- foot mark?"
29818And told her that her father was under us?
29818Anybody get out at all?
29818Are you all right?
29818Are you for lettin''''em get away with it? 29818 Be you the bosses?"
29818Bein''held up, am I?
29818But I thought you said they were heading for some other ground?
29818But about what?
29818But do n''t you think I''m right?
29818But how did they get him?
29818But how does this news leak out?
29818But how should I know how much it amounts to, even if I do find out that some of my men drove into the Cross pay?
29818But if it failed?
29818But what has that to do with us?
29818But what interests me most is how you knew?
29818But who could it be?
29818But you know the old idea-- that she gets richer as we go down?
29818Ca n''t you tell me, old man? 29818 Can we change it?"
29818Curt enough, at least, is n''t he?
29818Did you go down, Jim?
29818Did you work on the Rattler?
29818Do for me? 29818 Do we get permission to go on the claim?"
29818Does any one know this country here?
29818Does n''t it seem so to you, Bill?
29818For heaven''s sake, how do you figure that out?
29818Give me room, boys, wo n''t you?
29818Give us a hand here, will you? 29818 Good of him, was n''t it?"
29818Got us? 29818 Had your supper?"
29818Half owner? 29818 Hardly know the place now, eh?"
29818Have you finished work on your pipe line?
29818Have you met Bully Presby yet?
29818Have you seen Bells?
29818Have you seen Bill?
29818He ai n''t the only Presby in this whole United States, is he? 29818 He is?"
29818Hear that?
29818Him? 29818 Him?
29818How am I to know that?
29818How does she dope out?
29818How far over is it?
29818How is the sump hole under the shaft?
29818I s''pose you know that no one''s allowed on the Cross ground, do n''t you?
29818I suppose this mine is fair?
29818I suppose you have the keys for everything, have n''t you?
29818I wonder where they are bound for? 29818 I''ll go get The Lily to come up and open the door,"one of Bells''supporters said;"and wo n''t you go for Doc?"
29818Is n''t that it?
29818Is she all tiger, or part woman?
29818Is the boss here?
29818Is there any need for an exchange of insults?
29818It looks as if we were goin''to have an argument, do n''t it?
29818It''s as bad as that, is it, boy? 29818 It''s not bad, I hope,"he said,"but it does hurt, does n''t it, old partner?"
29818Lay his hand down? 29818 Lookin''for Lily?"
29818Many men at the camp?
29818Me? 29818 Oh, so the old Rattler owner has a daughter, eh?"
29818Oh, you''re certain of that, are you, my girl?
29818On ore, or waste?
29818On whose authority, may I ask?
29818Open the door, ca n''t you?
29818Presby? 29818 Pretty tough luck, is n''t it?"
29818Refuse mine? 29818 Say, Bill,"he said,"is n''t it about bad enough without any more trouble?"
29818Say, there''s something wrong with that stuff you sent us,Bill began, and the trader answered with a soft, absent- minded,"So?"
29818Say,drawled his companion, with a calm deliberation that would have been dreaded by those who knew him,"does it hurt you much to be civil?
29818Sixty thousand? 29818 Sloan?"
29818So that''s the chap, eh? 29818 So that''s the way that trader down there filled the order, is it?"
29818So they''ve ordered a strike on us, have they?
29818So you are here in Goldpan, are you, Wolff?
29818So you''re running, eh?
29818Suppose after this you mind your own business?
29818The Lily?
29818The venners need a little more slant, do n''t you think?
29818Then if you''re with us, where is that Denver bunch?
29818Then we''d better move fast, eh?
29818Then why are you here together?
29818Think of it? 29818 Want you, boys?
29818We cut the green lead on the six- hundred- foot, at a hundred and ten feet from the shaft, did n''t we? 29818 We ought to go round there and see Mrs. Meredith, and patronize her as far as a few soda pops, and such go, had n''t we?
29818Well, I suppose you know they''s a lot of talk goin''around that the Cross is workin''in good pay now?
29818Well, if he thinks it''s such a good thing, why did n''t he offer to buy you out? 29818 Well, sir,"he said, turning to meet the kindly eyes,"what do you think of it?"
29818Well, where does this trail go?
29818Well, where does this trail start in?
29818Well,called Dick,"what did you learn?"
29818Well,demanded Rogers,"what have you to say for yourself?
29818Well,he said, without noticing the hot, antagonistic attitude of the mine owner,"what do you think of the proffered agreement?"
29818Well,she said, facing him, as if he had voiced his sentiment,"what would you have?
29818Well?
29818Were n''t you man enough to come yourself, instead of taking my daughter underground? 29818 What can we do for you?"
29818What did he do for you?
29818What do you fellers want here?
29818What do you fellows mean, anyhow?
29818What do you mean by this, anyhow?
29818What do you s''pose is up? 29818 What do you say we go down and hear what the trader has to say?
29818What do you want, anyhow?
29818What does that mean?
29818What is it?
29818What is the condition?
29818What must you think of me?
29818What position does he occupy? 29818 What time will she be here?"
29818What to do? 29818 What''re you up to?"
29818What? 29818 Where can Presby and the Rattler be found?"
29818Where is he, then?
29818Where were you last night?
29818Where you goin''?
29818Who are you?
29818Who did that?
29818Who do you mean-- Lily?
29818Who does this rope belong to?
29818Who is there that could want us out of the way badly enough to murder us? 29818 Who might that young feller be?"
29818Who told you to come here?
29818Why do n''t you hit again, boy? 29818 Why should I?
29818Why, say, Miss Presby, can you assay?
29818Why-- why, what do you know about him?
29818Why? 29818 Why?"
29818Will you come?
29818Wo n''t eh?
29818Wo n''t you take it, Mathews, and carry it over?
29818Wonder who that can be?
29818Working eight batteries?
29818Would you mind looking that over, and seeing if it meets with your approval?
29818You are Miss Meredith?
29818You are asking yourself and me the question, why, if I dislike liquor, and gambling, and all this, I am owner of the High Light?
29818You brought her here?
29818You noticed how round it was on one side? 29818 You should, eh?
29818You want to see me?
29818You''re all right, are you?
29818You''re thinkin''it''s no good, are you?
29818Yours and Mr. Sloan''s interests? 29818 ''Who owns this candlestick?'' 29818 A man came to a window in a picketed wicket as he entered, and said briskly:Well?"
29818Ai n''t we still pardners?
29818All down?"
29818And he told you that if ever you came back to Butte, he would not turn a hand to keep you from the clutches of the mob; did n''t he?
29818And is up there at the Cross?
29818And now you are plain''Mister Brown,''working somewhere back up in the hills, are you?
29818And who are you, may I ask?"
29818And-- and your name is Joan and not Dorothy, and you are Bully Presby''s daughter?"
29818Apuricots?
29818Are you mad?
29818As if by an afterthought, he asked:"Have you any idea of the condition of the mine?"
29818Besides, how about Sloan, my father''s old- time partner?
29818But how''s that girl?
29818Camp must be makin''money, eh?"
29818Can I send you up a bottle of Pumbry?
29818Can we help if we get over there?"
29818Come outside, wo n''t you?"
29818Cookin''for me?
29818Dick lifted his eyes, and looked at him affectionately, and then whispered into the ear close by his shoulder:"Shall I tell him now?"
29818Did n''t he?
29818Did n''t he?
29818Did n''t you know that-- all this time?"
29818Did you ever think how good it all is to us?
29818Did you want to compel her to be the chief witness in your claim?
29818Do I know him?"
29818Do I talk like a miner?"
29818Do n''t it?"
29818Do n''t you see, ca n''t you understand, that I want you to make good just to show that you can?"
29818Do you call that laying down a hand?
29818Do you get that?"
29818Do you know what you are doing?"
29818Does he think that sixty thousand is any saving from a wreck like this has been?
29818Does n''t he know who they are?"
29818Does that answer you?"
29818Eh?
29818Even as she said simply:"I am, but how did you know?
29818Finished?"
29818For God''s sake, what has happened?"
29818For an instant Dick was enraged by this stubbornness, and turned with a threat, and said:"Who''s running this mine?
29818Get it?"
29818Goin''to tie the poke strings again?"
29818Got any letters telling me that I''m to turn it over to you?"
29818Got us?"
29818He turned to the woman with his set face, and, still speaking in that calm, deadly voice, said:"Do you happen to have your gun up here?"
29818He went on without noticing them, speaking of himself in the third person:"I can stay here to- night somewhere, ca n''t I?
29818Hear''em?
29818Hey?
29818His reply did not seem to allay the solicitude of his companion, who called again,"Can I help you in any way?"
29818How does the Cross look, anyway?"
29818How goes it?"
29818How had it all happened?
29818I can sleep here, ca n''t I?"
29818I suppose you heard about it?"
29818If I should decline to venture his money, why should I----?"
29818If the mill had not been put out of business, we were going to stope it out, though, and prove whether it was the permanent ledge, were n''t we?"
29818Just as we uster be?"
29818Just forget it, wo n''t you?
29818Maybe you''ve heard of me?
29818Most frequently the anxious demand, coupled with a pronounced eagerness was,"Is there anything any of us can do?
29818No?
29818Now, what in hell do you suppose he meant by that?"
29818Presby?"
29818Say, Bill, you''re a little twisted, are n''t you?
29818She''s been idle, and water- soaked, for three years, ai n''t she?
29818So he came back, did he?
29818Take this, wo n''t you?
29818Talk about beans and sowbelly, how would these do?"
29818Tell me about the mine and the men?
29818That is your attitude?"
29818That''s a pretty big layout, eh?
29818That''s what it says in the copybooks, does n''t it?"
29818The latter looked at him coolly and exasperatingly for a moment, then said:"What position do you occupy here, my man?"
29818The letter comes from whom?
29818The moth in the closet, eh?
29818The repairs to the plant would not prove so heavy; but after that?
29818The younger man laughed softly and remonstrated:"Now, what''s the use in saying that?
29818There was an instant''s hesitation and then again the voice,"Well, what do you want?
29818There''s been a real good horse trail worked into the ground up there, ai n''t there?
29818They had some buildings and plant there, eh, Dick?"
29818Think of it?"
29818Understand?
29818Understand?"
29818Want to come along?"
29818Want to go to- day?"
29818Want you?"
29818Was he so kind----?"
29818Was the young mine owner, Townsend, there with you?
29818What ails you, anyway?"
29818What are you going to do?"
29818What are you handin''me?
29818What are your-- your-- how are your finances?"
29818What did you do that for?"
29818What do you think of that?"
29818What do you think?"
29818What do you think?"
29818What do you want out there?"
29818What do you want?"
29818What does that idiot think men who have dropped a quarter of a million in a property would quit for?
29818What is it, boy?"
29818What next?''
29818What of me?"
29818What of mine?
29818What of my conscience?
29818What of my own father?
29818What right had you to--?"
29818What right have you got sittin''here on your long haunches and lettin''a boss do the work?
29818What right have you to come up here and grab a man that way?
29818What''s the commotion down there?"
29818What''s the matter with you?
29818What?
29818When did you say I go to work?"
29818When do I go to work?
29818Where do you reckon we''ll find this here Thomas Presby person?"
29818Where the devil do you go every mornin''between nine and eleven?"
29818Where was I?
29818Who are you lookin''for, anyhow?"
29818Who are you?"
29818Who are you?"
29818Who''s Presby?
29818Who''s that girl you go up on the pipe line to meet every mornin''?"
29818Why did n''t they work her sooner?
29818Why do n''t you do it?
29818Why, you do n''t think I''m watching it because I want it, do you, young man?
29818Why?"
29818Why?"
29818Will you see to it that this goes to the right channels, and regard it as confidential?
29818Will you?
29818Wonder who''s right?"
29818You are rehabilitating the old mine?"
29818You been down to the camp a few times, ai n''t you?"
29818You do n''t know Presby?"
29818You do n''t mean to say you''re not with me?"
29818You got to move some, ai n''t you?
29818You see that gap up yonder?
36123''A tilligram, was it? 36123 ''But was not there something else?''
36123''Do you know what that is?'' 36123 ''Do you think so?''
36123''Do you think so?'' 36123 ''Have yees thought it over, and will yees be satisfied, darlint?''
36123''How are you going to reply?'' 36123 ''How did I feel, Professor,''he said,''how did I feel?
36123''Is Mr. O---- in?'' 36123 ''Meester Marshall, hous dings?''
36123''Meester Marshall,''he said, hesitatingly,''did you clerk ever in a store?'' 36123 ''Then why do you not reform?''
36123''There can be no possible mistake in what you have told me, Judge?'' 36123 ''Ven could you come?''
36123''Vould you clerk for me?'' 36123 ''Vould you come next Monday-- von of mine clerks, Henery, goes avay Monday?''
36123''What did you say?'' 36123 ''What do you take me for?''
36123''Who is the man and what is he sayin?'' 36123 ''Yes,''retorted the partner,''but what are we going to do for a bed?
36123''Yes?'' 36123 A reasonable suspicion, I fancy, Alex; but what do you think of your brother editors of this coast as men and writers?"
36123And I said''for why?'' 36123 And how did you reach that estimate, pray?"
36123And pray, what do you mean by your Club?
36123And who is the young man, Mabel?
36123And why do you thank God?
36123And why not?
36123And you still ask about the influence of the press?
36123And you will not call me a fool, Wright?
36123And, Alex, you will not expose me in the paper?
36123And, Colonel, you will not ask mysterious questions about who usually sits as a commission of lunacy in Virginia City?
36123Are you a good cook, sure, Yap?
36123At this the lady sprang up, and, confronting the young man, said:''Frank Carey, what is the number of your box in the postoffice?'' 36123 Billie glanced at the paper and then said:''Harlow was a good fellow and a good friend of ours, can you not add something to this notice?''
36123Boys,asked the Colonel,"do you believe that lying is ever justifiable?"
36123But Brewster,said Harding,"do you not think that a good miner is of more use to the world than a bad sculptor?"
36123But did you never do him any great favor, Miller-- any particularly great favor?
36123But has he made a fortune publishing sketches of that description?
36123But how much did you receive for winning that case?
36123But what about that unregenerate soul that you were going to tell me of-- has some broker sold out some widow''s stocks?
36123But when were you engaged?
36123But while on grand themes, have you ever seen the Columbia River? 36123 But who makes up your company?"
36123But whom do you consider the foremost editor of the coast?
36123But why do you not bring on the supper?
36123But why have you never told me?
36123But, Professor,said Alex,"why hoard the metals?
36123But, do you know any points on stocks, Wright?
36123Colonel, what is your judgment about the business?
36123Did you ever hear about Jack Marshall''s attempt to pay his debts by clerking in a store?
36123Did you have any weapons with you, Harding?
36123Did you, at the same time, keep in thought the fact that in an emergency the law permits a man to plead his own cause?
36123Do you ever buy stocks?
36123Do you get drunk, Yap?
36123Do you remember there was a Frenchman hanged in this city a few years ago? 36123 Do you remember what Wright told us, about the appalling stillness of this region?"
36123Do you smoke opium?
36123Filling the night with revelry With cards and wine and dice, And adding music''s ecstacy, To give more charms to vice?
36123Harding, why are you so still?
36123Has some one burglarized some hospital or orphan asylum?
36123Have you any cousins, Yap?
36123He had his mirage and it was worse than wild Injuns, was it not, Wright?
36123Here''s another date at midnight, Where was''t thou this night, say?
36123Here''s thine own picture, illy dressed; What means this scant attire?
36123How do you like that style of banking, Barney?
36123How do you manage about your cooking?
36123How do you spend your evenings?
36123How is the temperature?
36123How is your health?
36123How many hours a day do you like to work, Yap?
36123How much did they amount to?
36123How much were the repairs on the house, Miller?
36123How was it?
36123How would you like an editorial on----scoundrels?
36123How would you like to have me write an editorial for your paper?
36123I say, Harding, have you measured all the faet in that poem?
36123I wonder if Carlin has secured a patent yet?
36123Imagine such a crisis upon us, what then would the unsupported paper dollar be worth? 36123 Is it not pitiful,"said Harding,"to think of a grand life like Wright''s being worn out as his was?
36123Is she not divine?
36123It is a good crowd; but you are not all working in the same mine, are you?
36123Letters?
36123Never mind, old boy,said Miller;"did I not tell you I would make things all right for you?"
36123On what theme?
36123Pointing to the blackened and withering crop, Jack answered:''They look a little bilious, do n''t you think so?'' 36123 Say, Barney, is there not a great deal of frieze to one of those Sierra temples?"
36123Speaking of babies,said Miller nonchalantly,"do you know that about the most touching scene I ever witnessed was over a baby?
36123Suppose all our mistakes shall be remimbered against us, how will we iver git admitted to the great Club above?
36123Suppose some one comes and wants to steal things, what then?
36123Suppose we were to hire you, Yap, how long would it take you to steal everything in the ranch?
36123Suppose your brother were in danger and some man stood in the way forbidding you to go to him, what would you think?
36123Suppose, Yap, that some time stocks would go up and make you$ 20,000, would you work then?
36123Suppose, Yap, you had$ 5,000--what then?
36123Suppose,said the Professor,"that there are souls which have no ear for music?"
36123Sure enough, why should you not? 36123 That was good for you, but what sort of reputations did your associates have?"
36123There is a good deal of humor displayed in courts of justice at times, is there not, Colonel?
36123These dollar marks,the angel said;"What mean they, Ernest, tell?"
36123To save my hat?
36123Typical, is it not?
36123What are you going to Boston for?
36123What are your plans, Ashley, for the near future, after this business which we have in hand shall be over?
36123What can the matter be with Carlin?
36123What if some souls are born deaf and dumb?
36123What is a young fellow like you doing with such a melancholy view of things?
36123What is it, then,asked Miller;"wo n''t you read it to us?"
36123What is your hilarity occasioned by?
36123What is your judgment, Professor?
36123What is your name, John?
36123What kind of a bank was it, Barney?
36123What kind of character would you give me, were I to die?
36123What ought to be done, Carlin?
36123When the man had finished his story, Jack said to him:''How would I do for a steady man and a bovine manipulator?'' 36123 Where are the men who were the Argonauts of the golden days?
36123Which lady do you mean?
36123Who knows,said Harding,"that he did not hear it sung first and have it sent this way to comfort us?
36123Who knows?
36123Why did he not come loike a mon and say,''Boys, I have lost a trifle of your money in the malstroom of stocks; be patient and I will work out?''
36123Why have you not succeeded better, Colonel, financially?
36123Why not?
36123With a look of unfeigned astonishment the other lawyer said:''Well, what are_ you_ angry about?
36123Yap, do you like to work?
36123Yap, suppose you were to get$ 3,000, would you work then?
36123You are growing musical, are you?
36123You bought some dishes, did you not, Miller?
36123You said it was down by the California Bank corner?
36123You will not call it a mirage, Corrigan?
36123You wo n''t laugh, Carlin?
36123You wo n''t laugh?
36123''But how have you lived?''
36123''But what is it?''
36123''Do n''t you think I have any honor about me?
36123''Is mamma there?''
36123''What is it?''
36123After a moment or two of silence, Carlin said:"Well, Barney, how was it in six weeks?"
36123After reading the letter Charley looked up and said to the stranger:"''And so you have come to take my place?''
36123And do yees think we''d apply to yees at all if we could find a dacant mon in the worreld?
36123And phat do they cost?''
36123And said:"O, Faithful, answer me, Here is a midnight scroll, What didst thou''neath the stars that night?
36123And suppose Europe were to combine to fight the United States, then what would the loss be to the people?
36123And they''re will, are they?''
36123And was not she mad though?
36123And you Harding, what have you marked out?"
36123Are you sick?"
36123Are you the first man who has ever been deceived by Comstock"dead points?"
36123As the pipes were lighted next evening, Carlin said to Barney:"Corrigan, does the ghost of your La Porte mirage haunt you as Wright''s does him?"
36123But I went to Boston and, what do you think?
36123But how prospers that newspaper?"
36123But spakin''of beautiful things, did yees iver sae Lake Tahoe in her glory?
36123But tell me, Carey, am I not rather an impressive liar, when, in the best interests of domestic peace, my duty leads me into that channel?''
36123But what has awakened your appreciation to- night?"
36123But what would they do were they placed where I saw Corrigan unconcernedly working to- day?
36123But who knows?
36123But, Alex, do you not think there is a great deal of humbug about the much vaunted power of the press?"
36123By the way,''he said, shortly,''do you ever pray?''
36123Can we ever be good enough wives to these men who do not half realize how grand they are?
36123Corrigan spoke next; said he:"Spakin''of storms, did you iver watch the phenomenon of a ragin''snow storm high up in the Sierras?
36123Crimson, but still smiling, the young lady said:"Gentlemen, did you see Mr. Carlin at the station, before a whole depot of giggling ninnies, too?
36123Der man vot does not bay for his glose is, vots yer call him?
36123Did he do well with his mine?"
36123Did n''t I tell you?
36123Did you dream what you have been saying?"
36123Did you ever hear him explain why he did not become a fighter?"
36123Did you ever hear such talk?
36123Didst linger o''er the bowl?
36123Do n''t yees own the whole counthry?
36123Harding looked up from the paper and said:"Wright, what was it you said about the drill of the Emmett Guards, last night?"
36123He said:"Gentlemen, did you notice closely the last witness for the defendant?
36123Here Miller interrupted with,"You felt pretty proud just then, did you not, Barney?"
36123Here an old friend of my husband( is not that word husband lovely?)
36123How does that interfere with_ you_?''"
36123How is the mine, Wright?"
36123I argued the pint with him and asked him how a man could furnish a house, lights, fires and whisky, and keep it up if nobody paid?
36123I said:''If you please, Mrs. O''Kelly, can I see Miss Murphy?''
36123If I come thin, will yees go?''
36123If I come thin, will you take me name and go back with me?''
36123In final appeal, Harding said:"And you, Professor, you will not say it is a tough, hard formation and too nearly primitive to carry any treasure?"
36123Is he not grand, Auntie?"
36123Is it in love wid horseback exercise that ye are?
36123Is not that a dreadful price for a cook?
36123It is a grand mountain, is it not?"
36123Just potatoes straight, Yap?
36123Knowst thou how often women''s arms Have drawn men''s souls to hell?"
36123Mackay?''
36123May I not ask if we can not in some way assist you and the woman?''
36123McGarrigle?''
36123Meester Marshall,''cried Isaacs;''have n''t you got nodings vot you can pay?
36123O''Kelly?''
36123O, Ernest, is this well?
36123One such a man was entertainment to the village; had there been a dozen more like him they would have become intolerable nuisances?"
36123Said Corrigan:"You offered to fight any one of the blackguards, and whin they refused, you came away?
36123Seizing Harding by the arm, Carlin hurled him back, exclaiming:"Art crazy, boy?
36123She had bright, cheery ways, and whin she wint up to a table and sung out''Soup''?
36123Smith?"
36123Suddenly Miller said:"Harding, were you ever in the Eastern States?"
36123The Club was silent for a moment, when the strong man added, solemnly, and as if to himself:"Who knows that she does not help us still?"
36123The chap on the other side of the table commenced to pay out the pictures, and the Quane----""Well, what of the Queen, Barney?"
36123The old humor was all back in Mighels''face in an instant, as he replied,''Was I talking like a fool, old man?
36123The response goes back,''Who is it?''
36123Then turning quickly to Harding, he said:"Harding, how much is that indebtedness which has worried you so long?"
36123Then when you are too old to work, what amusements and diversions are you preparing for old age?"
36123Then, after a pause,''Ven does you suppose you might pay me, Meester Marshall?''
36123They drank, and then Henry Moore said to Hugh Richmond:"Why do n''t you ante?"
36123Turning to a friend, Felton said:''Can you tell why that flag is like a Reese River mine?''
36123Was ever anything half so ridiculous?"
36123Were the train not here what would there be for sound to act upon?"
36123What are you, a big, strong, healthy fellow, going to do to help those poor wretches in the cabin yonder?''
36123What could I do?
36123What do yees think I care for a few beggarly dollars?''
36123What do you take us for?
36123What do you think of it, Brewster?"
36123What do you think?
36123What do you think?
36123What have you done with the other eight hours?
36123What have you to say to that?"
36123What is the matter?"
36123What is the most impressive scene that you ever witnessed?"
36123What mean they here?"
36123What say you, Ashley and Harding, will you not escort the body to its old home?"
36123What say you?''
36123What shall we call our mess?"
36123What shall we do about it?"
36123What shift are you on, Wright?"
36123What then?
36123What think you of that story; of the Red Sea affair; of the Sinai incident, and the golden calf business?"
36123What war there in a bit of a scrap to make a mon grave himself into craziness over it?"
36123What would the poor do without yees in this town, Mr. Mackay?
36123When Harding had told his story, Miller said:"Who did you say these men were, Harding?"
36123When Miller ceased speaking, Ashley remarked:"Miller, yon talk very wisely on the subject of babies, why have you none of your own?"
36123When safely housed and ministered to at last a friend said to him:''George, that was a tough experience, was it not?''
36123When they were gone Mabel said:"Are they not perfectly splendid?"
36123Which was the honest man and which the scoundrel?
36123Who can estimate the swelling strength that is sufficient to fully equip a new state annually?
36123Who knows that it will not, in swelling waves, roll on until it breaks upon the upper shore?"
36123Who knows what connections can be made with those other heights where Peace rules with Love?
36123Who shall fitly tell the story of his life and work?
36123Why did you buy out a store, Miller?"
36123Why do you not give up mining and devote yourself to writing?"
36123Why may not money be represented by paper backed by the Nation''s faith?
36123Why pile up the metals in the Government vaults when the printing press can supply as good money as the people want?"
36123Why should I not?"
36123Why should a man make a fuss about the loss of a trifle like that?''
36123Will you be kind enough to tell me the number of this gentleman''s postoffice box?''
36123Wolcott?"
36123Would you work harder if we paid you fifty dollars?"
36123Wright, who was nearest him, said:"What is the matter, Yap?
36123You are keeping a private box, are you?
36123You know that same, too, and hince phy did yees go away and force all this work upon me?
36123You look upon a piece of ore, but can you test it and tell how much it is worth?
36123You want a church, why---- it, why do n''t you work the business as though you believed it would pay?
36123and then the conversation goes on as follows:''Is that you, papa?''
36123if others grew reckless?"
36123said Harding,"why did you go away?
36123vot you dinks I could do mit a dog?''
36123you would not undertake to drive oxen and plant potatoes, would you?''
29693About what hour do you think it was when they left?
29693Ahem, Miss Nellie, when we go back home, will you promise me to say nothing about this part of your lesson?
29693And did n''t you find it again?
29693And how far do you suppose_ they_ are?
29693And that was the end of your troubles with the Indians?
29693And that?
29693And they are as likely to meet them as we?
29693And they went all that distance ahead of you with their animals?
29693And this one?
29693And what am_ I_ to do?
29693And what did you learn?
29693And what will become of Cap?
29693And when you find that out, what next?
29693And why did n''t you?
29693And why?
29693And why?
29693And wo n''t_ we_ remember it?
29693And you believe he purposely misled us?
29693And you have started for Sacramento with the purpose of making her your wife?
29693And you, Ruggles?
29693And, Nellie, you agreed to this?
29693Are you all ready?
29693Are you ready, pards? 29693 Buried in Southern Virginia as a memento of my work for the Union, but, my dear child,_ I_ am here; is n''t_ that_ enough?"
29693But how shall we know he''s going to say''em?
29693But how was it you suspected our errand?
29693But may not all this be hers and yours if the flower is transplanted from the wilderness into a more congenial soil? 29693 But none would harm_ me_,"was the wondering reply of the miss;"are not all of my own race my friends?"
29693But was neither you or the lieutenant harmed?
29693But what was in the letter to make him act so queer?
29693But where are_ our_ rights?
29693But why did n''t you look fur her to larn whether she was in sight or was liable to hear your shocking words?
29693But why did you not write to me and tell me all this? 29693 But will it not discommode you?"
29693But you and I have made mistakes--"Nothing like this; why did she not ask me? 29693 Can it be we are off the track?
29693Can you make out the members of the party?
29693Can you stand on your head?
29693Could you tell the color of his eyes?
29693Did n''t they see you?
29693Did n''t you refer to the diggings?
29693Did the little one hear him?
29693Did you ever hear of Corporal Bob Parker of the---- Missouri?
29693Did you hurt yourself, Mr. Bidwell? 29693 Did you kill him?"
29693Did you overhear anything said by them?
29693Do n''t you know me, captain?
29693Do you hear that, boys? 29693 Do you intend to spend all your life in this out of the way corner of the world?"
29693Do you know our business, Vose?
29693Do you know the meaning of this?
29693Do you know,he said,"that some one is following us?
29693Do you live all alone?
29693Do you mean a pussy?
29693Do you notice that tall thin man at the rear?
29693Do you propose to let him off?
29693Do you refer to the Indian?
29693Do you see her?
29693Do you think so?
29693Do you''spose that is the first time I ever met a mountain Injin?
29693Does that spell''pussy''too?
29693Does your head hurt you?
29693Father, my own father, are you not glad to see your Nellie?
29693Father, what is_ that_?
29693Formerly captain of the Iowa---- cavalry?
29693Have n''t you got any little girl like me?
29693Have you any idea of the distance they went?
29693Have you any signal which your animal understands?
29693Have you been to his shanty?
29693Have you seen anything of Nellie?
29693Helloa, Vose, what''s the matter?
29693How about_ you_?
29693How can you be so positive?
29693How can you know that?
29693How could I help it? 29693 How do the others manage it?"
29693How do you explain the change, Wade?
29693How do you figure that out?
29693How do you know that?
29693How far?
29693How far?
29693How is that?
29693How long?
29693How near did you come to hitting him?
29693How shall we prevent it?
29693How should I know? 29693 How was it that Hoe met his death?"
29693How wide is the path?
29693How''s that?
29693How''s that?
29693How? 29693 How?"
29693How?
29693How?
29693How?
29693How?
29693Howdy, pards?
29693I agree with you agin, but what shall we do if we find him making love to the little gal?
29693I do n''t know what to advise,he finally said;"but do n''t you think, if she could go to the captain and let him see how she feels, he will give in?
29693I do n''t know; what is it?
29693I had obsarved that fact myself; strangers, I''ve made up my mind to buy them critters; what''s your price?
29693I have a suspicion of it, but are you afraid to trust me?
29693I like you ever so much, but you are crying,she said sympathetically;"what makes you do that?
29693I must pray for_ all_ of them, musn''t I?
29693I say, Vose, is n''t it better that we should wait till our horses can see the way?
29693I say, parson, was n''t that a rather cheeky performance of yours, when you made them man and wife?
29693I suppose it is all right; but how is it possible for a man to make such a consummate ass of himself?
29693I suppose you have plenty of covering for her?
29693I thought it was you, Vose,said the captain, sharply;"what do you mean by following us?"
29693I''m in too deep water when you get to figgerin''that way, but there seems to be reason in what you say, but what about Ruggles and the parson?
29693I''m so sorry; be you hurt?
29693If they make fools of themselves and upset all my plans, what can I do to help''em? 29693 In what respect?"
29693In what way?
29693In what way?
29693Indeed I would; will you be my little girl?
29693Is it possible that they have no suspicion of us?
29693Is n''t there likelihood that Colonel Briggs will divert them?
29693Is there anyone here disposed to dispute this statement?
29693It has a lofty sound,blandly remarked Isham;"will the chairman be good enough to translate it for us?
29693It is not for me to give counsel to my captain, but is it not a fact that selfishness grows upon us with advancing years?
29693Let''s see,growled Wade Ruggles,"Constantinople is in Ireland is n''t it?"
29693Lieutenant Frederic Russell, do you love Nellie Dawson?
29693M."Now say them quickly,''d- a- m;''what is the word?
29693May I touch her?
29693Mr. Brush,she finally said,"do you know why I love you?"
29693Mr. Isham,said the gentleman, severely,"are you aware that you are using improper language in the presence of this young lady?"
29693My idee is that whoever offends this little one by unproper language shall be filled full of bullet holes: how does_ that_ strike you?
29693Nellie, do you want a little advice from me?
29693No; what''s the matter?
29693Now, boys, are your shooting irons ready?
29693O, Mr. Brush, are we really married?
29693Of course; now can you say the letters without looking at them?
29693On your way to the diggings I presume?
29693Poor fellow,she said sympathetically;"you can not go any further; what shall be done, Fred?"
29693Shall we tell them?
29693Suppose it_ was_ certain, Wade?
29693That is due to the trouble with Indians?
29693That is right; now this one?
29693That''s the spot,he said,"but what good can it do us?
29693Then she will come in the morning?
29693Then why do n''t you foller him?
29693Then you expect her to remain here, sharing in all the vicissitudes of the place? 29693 Then you favor going ahead?"
29693There are six on each side; that evens matters; shall you start the music or do you prefer to have the captain fire the opening gun?
29693There was no one with them of course?
29693There''s something down there,remarked the captain slipping from his saddle;"Wade, you are the nearest, can you see anything?"
29693Vose, what do you mean to do?
29693Wal,''spose I shoot you and the leftenant and the captain and the rest? 29693 Was there anything in their actions to show they intended to take a longer ride than usual?"
29693We may as well have a look,remarked the captain;"what do you think, Vose?"
29693Well, Nellie, are n''t you glad to see me?
29693Well, what is to be done?
29693What about those who are with him?
29693What are you going to do with that horse in front of you?
29693What are you talkin''''bout, parson?
29693What became of her?
29693What difference does the spot make?
29693What do you mean to do?
29693What do you mean?
29693What do you think of his long absence yesterday?
29693What does all this mean, Brush?
29693What does it seem to be?
29693What else can it be?
29693What else could they do?
29693What has the prisoner to say fur himself?
29693What have I said that warrants that question?
29693What have I to tell, but my everlasting woe and shame? 29693 What have you there?"
29693What in the name of heaven, parson, does she mean?
29693What is it to spell?
29693What is it?
29693What is it?
29693What is its nature?
29693What is that?
29693What is that?
29693What is your pleasure, gentlemen?
29693What knowledge have we that they have not maintained such a lookout and discovered us as soon as we noticed the camp fire itself? 29693 What passed between you and them?"
29693What pays?
29693What right have you to get in front of me? 29693 What route did you take, captain?"
29693What the mischief are you driving at?
29693What was it anyway?
29693What was that?
29693What will happen to him?
29693What would papa do and those other folks? 29693 What''ll the boys say?
29693What''s that fur?
29693What''s that?
29693What''s that?
29693What''s that?
29693What''s that?
29693What''s the matter with it?
29693What''s the matter with them? 29693 What''s the matter?"
29693What''s the meaning of all this? 29693 What''s up, pards?"
29693What''s your name?
29693When did he learn it?
29693When did my punishment begin?
29693When do you imagine they set out?
29693When violators of the law hear that name, what does it say to them? 29693 When was it they left?"
29693Where are their ponies?
29693Where are you going?
29693Where''s your eddycation?
29693Which of you gentlemen will promise to weaken if we keep this thing up for half the night?
29693Which way, pards?
29693Who lives in dere?
29693Whom have you with you?
29693Whose is it?
29693Why did n''t you awake me afore? 29693 Why did n''t you come back at once?"
29693Why did n''t you do it?
29693Why did n''t you wait till morning?
29693Why did they allow us to pass their camp undisturbed?
29693Why did they not come with you?
29693Why do we sit here, lamenting that which can not be helped? 29693 Why do you think that?"
29693Why does Captain Dawson prevent them?
29693Why need they find out about it?
29693Why not make a settlement of your own?
29693Why not? 29693 Why not?"
29693Why should I hurry off to you with the news?
29693Why so?
29693Why would he go there?
29693Why, Mr. Brush, do n''t you know?
29693Why?
29693Why?
29693Why?
29693Why?
29693Why?
29693Why?
29693Why?
29693Would n''t you like to have me for your little girl?
29693Yes, you is, but if you ai n''t good, why ai n''t you good?
29693Yes,he said, compressing his lips;"it is hers; she dropped it there-- how long ago, Vose?"
29693You advise against it then?
29693You ca n''t be any happier than I; but, father,she added in amazement,"where is your other arm?"
29693You mean that this town shall be''New Constantinople?''
29693You mean well, Vose, but do you imagine that Nellie and I did not count the cost before turning our backs on New Constantinople? 29693 You mean''bout that bad word?"
29693You must n''t get up again, will you?
29693You wo n''t be gone long?
29693''Spose I sneak back, shoot the captain and then plug Ruggles and the parson?
29693''Spose the captain is agreeable?"
29693Am I right, Wade?"
29693And who shall picture the sorrow that wrenched the heart strings of the parent?
29693Are n''t they as good as ours?"
29693Are you worried about him, little gal?"
29693As before, Wade Ruggles was the first to come to himself, but when he spoke, it was in an awed, hesitating whisper:"Is she really alive?"
29693Big scheme, ai n''t it?"
29693Brush?"
29693But what can_ I_ do?
29693But where are the three?"
29693Ca n''t we fix it some way, so that she sha n''t hear''em at all?"
29693Chairman?"
29693Did I hear a groan?"
29693Did you recognize the others?"
29693Died on the field of battle, or in camp or hospital, in the service of his country,--what more glorious epitaph can patriot desire?"
29693Do n''t I have to make a trip to Sacramento three or four times each year?"
29693Do n''t you suppose we knew we should be pursued and were prepared for the consequences?"
29693Do you know anything of the place?"
29693Do you mean to give up, captain, and let her go?
29693Do you understand?"
29693Does any gent feel disposed to dispoot the aforesaid statement?"
29693Does that which she can learn elsewhere outweigh that which she will never learn in this secluded settlement?
29693Has she not already acquired that rugged strength which renders her nature secure against evil?
29693Have n''t you got a little girl like me?"
29693Have n''t you seen Adams yet?"
29693Have you ever seen a cat?"
29693Have you seen anything wrong?"
29693He could not win the good will of Vose, but she could, for who was able to resist her appeals?
29693He had begun to ask himself in a whispered, startled way:"Why may I not possess this mountain flower?
29693He suddenly called:"Dawson, what time is it?"
29693How could she avoid feeling grateful, when she knew that he had risked his life for her parent, even on their late journey through the mountains?
29693How would it do for both of you to walk back with your arms round each other''s neck and sayin''sweet words-- wouldn''t that fetch him?
29693I thought nothing of that, however, for who would have believed it possible that there could be anything wrong?
29693If you come back, you would have been sartin to meet us, and what then?"
29693In other words, what does''E Pluribus Unum''mean?"
29693In the solitude of his own thoughts, the lover put the question to himself:"Am_ I_ unselfish in my intentions?"
29693Is she not doubly panoplied in goodness by the training of her infancy and girlhood?"
29693It is a pity to lose the opportunity, but I will leave it to you, parson and Ruggles; what do you say?"
29693It was the parson who said:"I suppose we have nothing to do except to wait here till you come back?"
29693My proposal is that we wait here till to- morrow morning until they come up; what is your opinion?"
29693Nellie laid her arm on the sleeve of Ruggles, and looking up yearningly in his face she asked:"Can you give me any news of father?"
29693No; that wo n''t do; how the mischief shall I fix things?"
29693Now give me the name of that letter,""D.""And that?"
29693Now will you tell me what letter that is?"
29693Parson Brush asked, as he pointed almost directly ahead:"Is n''t that a light off yonder?"
29693Queer town, ai n''t it?"
29693Rising immediately to a sitting position, he asked:"Is it midnight?"
29693Since they are too mean to trade, I leave it to you to say whether we shall let up on''em or make''em trade; which is it?"
29693Suppose the couple should leave their hiding place to return to the main trail before their pursuers were out of the way?
29693Suppose we now try the commandments: can you repeat the first one?"
29693Take her away from us?
29693That is all there is before the house, and I insist that we confine ourselves to that----""Is n''t that what I''ve been insistin''on?"
29693The captain was in an ugly mood and in a threatening voice asked:"Did you have anything to do with this?"
29693The disgusted parson exclaimed:"Why did n''t one of us think of that?
29693The men looked in one another''s faces and the captain asked in a guarded voice, as if afraid of being overheard:"Whose fire is it?"
29693Then bending over, he said, as he kissed the little one:"I thought you were asleep, Nellie?"
29693Then he pressed his lips to hers, and half- laughing and half- crying asked:"Who''s the happier, you or I?"
29693Then she exclaimed with a laugh:"Ai n''t that funny?"
29693Then turning to the guide, he asked:"Do you still advise her to leave me?"
29693They will never have the chance to officiate at his funeral, so how are they to learn of the manner of his taking off?"
29693To make sure, she looked up while still on her knees and asked:"Did I fordot any of you?"
29693Turning those lustrous blue eyes upon him she softly asked:"Will you do what I ask you?"
29693Was it instinct or reason that controlled the animal?
29693What a triumph it would be( and was it unreasonable to expect it?)
29693What else could it be?
29693What is your pleasure, gentlemen?"
29693What was the meaning of this?
29693What would that good old mother of mine think, if she was alive?
29693What''ll I think?
29693What''ll the parson think?
29693What''s the next thing to do, Vose?"
29693When at last she was ready, she looked up to her father and asked in a half whisper:"Where''s mamma?"
29693When do you wish to take up the pursuit?"
29693When not one of the men himself believed the story, how could he hope to make the mourning daughter believe it?
29693Where are they?"
29693Who can tell the sorrows of childhood when such a cruel affliction comes upon it?
29693Who shall draw the line in explaining many of the actions of the brute creation?
29693Who would have dared to say that amid this rough, uncouth people, such loveliness could take root and nourish?
29693Whoever heard of a town with three handles to its name?
29693Why did n''t they stay where they promised to stay, and why did n''t they kill that blamed dog afore he played this trick on''em?"
29693Why not keep Vose Adams a prisoner?
29693Will that suit you?"
29693Wo n''t let us settle among''em, eh?
29693Would n''t it be a good idee fur the gent to try it?"
29693Would the parent never understand him?
29693Would you have thought there was anything wrong if you had seen them?"
29693You understand the position of the Court?"
29693abruptly asked Nellie, shrinking closer to him;"have you a bear following you?"
29693do you expect me to open and read all the letters I bring through the mountains?"
29693exclaimed Vose Adams;"what have you been doing with her all this time?
29693has n''t she grown?
29693he repeated in a husky, rasping voice;"can there be any mistake about_ that_?"
29693it''s the chief''s horse,"he exclaimed;"do you see that?"
29693thundered the father of Nellie Dawson;"why did n''t you hurry off to me with the news?"
22669A sort of an express wagon, is n''t it?
22669Ai n''t goin''into the express business, be you?
22669Am I as homely as a hedge- fence?
22669Am I hump- backed?
22669Among the groceries?
22669And he sent you some money?
22669And what would you do with it, if I may make so bold?
22669And while there you drank some of their vile whiskey, did n''t you?
22669And who was the first lucky man?
22669And you are a widow?
22669Are those pineapples for sale?
22669Are you going home?
22669Are you in debt to Captain Fletcher for board?
22669Are you in earnest, John?
22669Are you not afraid of him?
22669Are you not afraid?
22669Are you sick?
22669Are you sure you''re quite right_ here_?
22669Are you travelin''fur?
22669Are you very much in need of the thirty dollars?
22669Be you a married man?
22669Be you in love with any girl?
22669But what induced you to leave so rich a claim?
22669But where is our Yankee friend?
22669But you do n''t mean to stay a widow?
22669Ca n''t we go over this evening?
22669Cu''rus, is n''t it?
22669Dead?
22669Did he know who stole it?
22669Did he say where he was going?
22669Did he send you thirty dollars?
22669Did n''t you have security for the loan?
22669Did you get my letter, Tom, announcing the squire''s intention to foreclose the mortgage?
22669Did you have any particular reason for fearing it?
22669Did you say he had his hand upon the bag of gold- dust, Tom?
22669Did you send money regularly to father?
22669Do n''t you ever make''em in Scotland?
22669Do n''t you know what nut- cakes are?
22669Do n''t you think Tom will find some gold?
22669Do n''t you want some breakfast?
22669Do you expect me to be content with this explanation?
22669Do you find any?
22669Do you live here all the year round, Mrs.----?
22669Do you live here-- alone?
22669Do you live here?
22669Do you mean that an article always commands its full value at auction, Squire Hudson?
22669Do you mean to say I sell bad whiskey?
22669Do you play euchre?
22669Do you require this?
22669Do you see that shooting- iron?
22669Do you see that? 22669 Does anyone else live near by?"
22669Does he want to sell?
22669Does the lady love you?
22669Excuse my persistency, but may I ask where you are going?
22669Five hundred?
22669For how long a time has the farm your father owns been encumbered with this mortgage?
22669Got a little what? 22669 Got any made?"
22669Has anybody been calling you so? 22669 Has anything happened to Russell?"
22669Have n''t you any weapon?
22669Have they got out here already? 22669 Have you been doing well, Tom?"
22669Have you been in San Francisco?
22669Have you heard from Tom lately?
22669Have you heard from Tom?
22669Have you money enough?
22669Have you no relatives to whom your life is of value?
22669Have you saved up so much already?
22669Have you seen anyone pass last night or this morning?
22669Have you sold these claims of yours?
22669Have you tried washing for gold?
22669Help it, sir? 22669 How are you getting on, Tom?"
22669How are you going?
22669How are you, John?
22669How could I anticipate the drought that has diminished my crops?
22669How did you sleep, Tom?
22669How do you know that?
22669How do you like my appearance, John?
22669How do, John?
22669How is that?
22669How long ago?
22669How long before my father will receive the money?
22669How long have you been here?
22669How many cows do you keep?
22669How much do you lack, Mark?
22669How much is it now?
22669How much is the mortgage, Tom?
22669How much to pay, John?
22669How much was it?
22669How much would satisfy you?
22669How much?
22669How old be you?
22669How soon?
22669I ca n''t understand it, Tom,he said;"how could you possibly get possession of so much money?"
22669I did not suspect you of that; but are you sure of a bed anywhere?
22669I do n''t know; how far away is the camp?
22669I hear that you are going to leave us, you two?
22669I hear you are going to San Francisco, John?
22669I suppose you would marry?
22669I take it for granted that you did not exhaust the wealth of the place?
22669I wonder how much money he''s got?
22669If our friends at home could see us, what would they think, eh, Tom?
22669In that case this Squire Hudson could foreclose at any time, could he not?
22669In what direction did he go?
22669In what direction did you say he went?
22669Is Miss Jones a particular friend of yours?
22669Is he defunct?
22669Is he gaining on us?
22669Is he going to tell?
22669Is he older than I am?
22669Is it a good business?
22669Is it bad news, Tom, lad?
22669Is it possible Mr. Ferguson would cheat me out of my fair share?
22669Is it subjecting you to any great inconvenience to wait a couple of months for it? 22669 Is n''t Ferguson with you?"
22669Is n''t it well to reserve a little, then?
22669Is that long?
22669Is that satisfactory?
22669Is the critter used up?
22669Is the mortgage for any specified term of years?
22669Is there any other bid?
22669Is there anything to pay, Nahum?
22669Is this place known to many?
22669It looks like it, does n''t it?
22669It merely runs from year to year then?
22669John,he said, quickly,"when does the next steamer start for New York?"
22669Making two thousand dollars each?
22669My capital?
22669Not three hundred, Tom?
22669Now we can have Whiteface back, ca n''t we, father?
22669O Lord, what shall I do?
22669Really, you compliment me, Mr.--, what may I call your name?
22669Say, have you got mountains as high as them, or trees as high as that?
22669Sha n''t I relieve you a few minutes?
22669Shall I go back for Ferguson?
22669Shall I put your name outside?
22669Shall I scribble a receipt, Tom? 22669 Shall I shoot?"
22669Shall we go round to Jack''s?
22669Shall we wake up Russell?
22669Since I have not the money to pay you, will you tell me what you require?
22669Suppose I ca n''t pay you back?
22669Suppose I should foreclose-- you would consider it an unkind thing and a great hardship, would n''t you?
22669Suppose you are sick?
22669Take a drink before you go?
22669That was a pretty stiff price, was n''t it?
22669That''s rather against it, is n''t it, captain?
22669Then do n''t you want it at all?
22669Then of course he could not say anything of his prospects?
22669Then what_ do_ you mean?
22669Then why was it deserted?
22669Then you decline to buy the farm at private sale?
22669Then you wo n''t take me?
22669Then you''re old enough to get married?
22669Then, why do you stay here?
22669There are some famous mountains in your native State, New Hampshire, are there not, Tom?
22669Tom,he exclaimed, in excitement,"do you see that, and that?
22669Two hundred?
22669Two thousand?
22669Was that what you were going to propose to him, last night?
22669Well, Tom, are you rested?
22669Well, gentlemen, do you want to stay here?
22669Well, stranger, is it a bargain?
22669What are nut- cakes?
22669What are you about?
22669What are you going to do with him, squire?
22669What better prospect have you of being able to pay me then?
22669What can I do for you?
22669What could induce you to take such a rash step?
22669What did you expect, if I may be so bold as to inquire?
22669What do you mean, sir?
22669What do you say to a thousand dollars?
22669What do you say, Tom?
22669What do you want of me?
22669What good would it do to become excited?
22669What have you decided about the team?
22669What have you got in the way of provisions? 22669 What is it?"
22669What is the man driving at?
22669What is the matter?
22669What on earth makes them sleep so late?
22669What shall I do?
22669What will they think at home when they hear that I have set up a carriage?
22669What would my friends in Boston say?
22669What would you do with it?
22669What would you have me do? 22669 What''ll you put up on your game, stranger?"
22669What''ll you take, cash down?
22669What''s he up to?
22669What''s the matter, Tom? 22669 What''s the matter, Tom?"
22669What''s the matter?
22669What''s there to be afraid of?
22669What''s your name, stranger?
22669What, the boy?
22669When did Brown die?
22669When does the sale take place?
22669Where are you steerin''?
22669Where can I engage passage?
22669Where did he get so much money?
22669Where did it come from?
22669Where did you hear this, my son?
22669Where might you be going?
22669Where shall we go first?
22669Who asks for pay?
22669Who can it be?
22669Who could have taken it?
22669Who is going?
22669Who is she?
22669Who told you so?
22669Who''s that taking liberties with my name?
22669Why did n''t you stay there?
22669Why did you do that?
22669Why do n''t you buy it? 22669 Why do n''t you come round to the saloon evenings?
22669Why do n''t you go back and start anew in the place where you met with your former good fortune?
22669Why is my bid ridiculous, Squire Hudson?
22669Why should I be?
22669Why, Tom, where did you spring from?
22669Why?
22669Wie gehts, Herr Ferguson?
22669Will you come back again?
22669Will you do me a favor?
22669Will you give me two months to pay the balance of interest?
22669Will you have any left?
22669Wo n''t anything excite you?
22669Wo n''t you take me with you, Tom?
22669Would I? 22669 Would he sell for such a small sum?"
22669Would not your death affect them more than the loss of money?
22669Would you go back now, if you had the chance?
22669Would you have any objection to let Tom and myself accompany you?
22669Would you mind my joining your party?
22669Yes, father; is it really true?
22669You ai n''t afraid of a little drink, I hope, are you?
22669You and I?
22669You are well and strong, are you not?
22669You be? 22669 You consider the farm worth considerable more than the amount of the mortgage, of course?"
22669You do n''t mean to play for money, do you?
22669You do n''t want to sell, do you?
22669You have n''t been sun- struck, have you?
22669You have n''t got another wife anywhere, have you?
22669You mean he would be hung?
22669You will attend to this matter?
22669You will come out here again, Tom, wo n''t you?
22669You''ll have seventy dollars left over, father, wo n''t you?
22669''Since I have paid you the interest promptly, what more can you desire?''
22669Am I old and wrinkled?"
22669Am I on the right track?"
22669Am I squint- eyed?"
22669Are you tired?"
22669But are you not afraid to make me this offer?"
22669But how could he decline without exciting the resentment of that singular female?
22669But how does it happen that it is full of sand, and why has the thief thrown it away?
22669But in that case, how could such a change have been effected in one night?
22669But what could be done?
22669But what is that?"
22669Can you guide us to a good restaurant?"
22669Could they have taken it?
22669Crane?"
22669Did he appear to have any such article with him?"
22669Did the claim prove more productive?"
22669Did you rest well?"
22669Do you mean to stay here alone?"
22669Do you think I can ever be stylish?"
22669Do you understand?"
22669Do you want to murder me?"
22669Do you wonder that I am reduced to despair?"
22669Does that gentleman come from your town?"
22669Does that satisfy you?"
22669Ferguson?"
22669Ferguson?"
22669Ferguson?"
22669Ferguson?"
22669Ferguson?"
22669Ferguson?"
22669Have you any letters for me?"
22669Have you got anything to eat in the house?"
22669Have you had breakfast?"
22669Have you seen Thomas?"
22669Have you thought of any other house, father?"
22669He was on the point of calling out"John,"when a sudden doubt and suspicion silenced him.--"Might not it be a robber?"
22669How are you getting on?"
22669How can I repay you for your kindness?"
22669How could Crane know that those pleasant- faced barbarians had served him such a trick?
22669How much did you give?"
22669How much do you want to send?"
22669How old are you?"
22669How soon do you wish for the cow?"
22669I suppose that took up about all I was entitled to?"
22669If I choose to drink, what-- what business is it-- yours?"
22669Is it possible that anybody lives in this cañon?"
22669Is n''t there any luck there?"
22669Is the place yours?"
22669It ai n''t very populous round here, is it?"
22669It was understood that my interest was to be paid semi- annually,--was it not so?"
22669Mr. Ferguson, can you oblige me with a pipeful of tobacco?
22669Now, Tom, what are your plans?"
22669Now, what is it you have found?"
22669Oh, have you got any tea, John?"
22669Onthank?"
22669Onthank?"
22669Peabody?"
22669Peabody?"
22669Peabody?"
22669Russell?"
22669Say, boy, where do you come from?"
22669Suppose a diamond worth ten thousand dollars were put up at auction in our village, do you consider that it would bring a fair price?"
22669Suppose we ca n''t sell the team?"
22669Then there ensued a hearty shaking of hands, followed by the question,"When did you get here?"
22669Then, noticing for the first time the express wagon which Tom had left outside, he asked, in a tone of interest,"Who owns that team?"
22669Was he dreaming?
22669Was it possible, he thought, that John Miles, discovering his loss, had visited him, and played this trick upon him?
22669What are you two doing?"
22669What do you say to starting next week for San Francisco?"
22669What do you say, stranger?"
22669What is it?"
22669What luck have you met with, stranger?"
22669What luck have you two had?"
22669What time is it?"
22669What was he to do?
22669What youthful, yet manly figure, was that actively descending from his perch beside the driver?
22669What''s the good of playin''for nothing?"
22669When I lent you money on mortgage was there a stipulation that if there was a drought I was to wait for my just interest?"
22669When Mr. and Mrs. Crane reached home, Bill ventured to inquire,"Have you got the money in the house, Mrs. Crane,--the five thousand dollars, I mean?"
22669When did you start?"
22669When shall we go to San Francisco?"
22669Who goes with me?"
22669Who said you were?"
22669Why did n''t I urge him to come with me?
22669Why do n''t you go along about your business?"
22669Why do n''t you pronounce your English better?"
22669Why should n''t I light on a nugget as well as the next man?"
22669Why, that ai n''t more''n fifty miles from Green Mountain Mills; cu''rus we should meet so fur away from hum, ai n''t it?
22669Will you marry me?"
22669Would n''t it be splendid, Mr. Ferguson, if we could do as well in the next six months as he did?"
22669You do n''t expect gold to come to you?"
22669You do n''t want to stay here, particularly?"
22669You know what they are, Tom?"
22669You raised her yourself, did n''t you?"
22669You refuse to grant me any delay?"
22669You were robbed, you told me?"
22669You''ve been on berrying parties, have n''t you, when at home?"
22669do you see that?"
31485''Meenx,''she mimicked,"''you mek to defy me in my own house?
31485''What you say,_ ma chérie_? 31485 A lexicon?

31485And get another job?
31485And just what might that mean, Bennie?
31485Another kind of book to make you tear up flowers?
31485Are we let out?
31485Are you determined to resign?
31485Are you related to that Hartwell at the mill?
31485Are you with us, or are you going down alone?

31485Did Nine and Ten run all night?
31485Did n''t I get a bad pair of boots out of the commissary, and did n''t he give me another pair in their place? 31485 Did they know you would meet me to- day?"
31485Did you?
31485Do n''t you ever get mad?
31485Do n''t you ever pick flowers?
31485Do n''t you want to see my garden?
31485Do you feel like gasping here?
31485Do you supply the men as liberally as you do your own table, Firmstone?
31485Does the altitude trouble you?
31485Get for what?
31485Getting scared, Frenchy? 31485 Go back to the mine to- night----""And miss all the fun down here?"
31485Have you found the names of these?
31485Have you nothing to say to this?
31485Have you told Élise that Pierre is not her father?
31485He keeps too much ze glass- eye on ze plate, on ze stamp, heh?
31485He''s not bin populaire wiz ze boy?
31485How are the contractors making out?

31485How do you find their names?
31485How is that?

31485How long before I can expect an answer?
31485How long did you go to school?

31485How''s that?
31485How?
31485If one man breaks five tons of ore a day, and another man breaks only one, will the union see that both get the same pay?
31485If you are ever in trouble you will let me know?
31485If you know not where she is, how shall you call her? 31485 In danger?"
31485Is it Morrison, or hang up?
31485Is it very hard to learn?
31485Is it?
31485Is that all?
31485Is that an invitation?
31485Is the union organised?
31485Is there no way to stop it?
31485Is your breakfast all right?
31485Is your case all in?
31485Is Élise in trouble?
31485Jack Haskins''s gang comin''?
31485Just what might that mean?
31485Looks as if I were a pretty bad lot, does n''t it? 31485 May I go if I give my answer?"

31485Oh, you''ve been to school, then, have you?
31485Only what?
31485Pets, is it? 31485 Pierre wants her to marry that Morrison?"
31485Really, have n''t you been laughing at me, all this time? 31485 Shall I call her?"
31485Shall I carry the sack for you?
31485Shall I go on?
31485Shall I lay off the men?
31485So you are the old man, are you?
31485Suppose I do neither?
31485The old man?
31485The question is,resumed Firmstone,"was the safe taken from the stage before the accident?"
31485The union ai n''t going to take up no private grievance?
31485The union will equalise the pay?
31485The union will run the company, but who''ll run the union?
31485The whole push fired?
31485Then, if the safe is never recovered, we have only your word that the bullion was put in there, as you stated?
31485There''s Thompson, the mine foreman----"Jim Thompson? 31485 They ai n''t, heh?
31485They''ll make the company ventilate the mines and keep bad ground timbered?
31485They? 31485 Things quieting down at the mine?"
31485To hell wiz Firmstone, heh?
31485To school? 31485 To school?"
31485To what difficulties do you refer?
31485To what li''l game you refer?
31485Under the circumstances, do n''t you think it is of the utmost importance that the safe be recovered?
31485Uses his own tape and rod, eh?
31485Well, do n''t you?
31485Well, how are you?
31485Well, what I can do for you this time?
31485Well, what do you make of it?
31485Well, what in hell you up here for? 31485 Well, what now?"
31485Well, what of it?
31485Well,Hartwell looked up abruptly;"how are things going?"
31485Well,he asked,"how do you find things?"
31485Well?
31485Well?
31485Well?
31485Well?
31485Well?

31485What are you feeding us?
31485What are you supposed to know?
31485What are you talking about?
31485What batteries did these two come from?
31485What did you mean, then?
31485What do you make of it?
31485What do you make of that?
31485What do you make out of that?
31485What do you mean by that?
31485What do you mean?
31485What do you mean?
31485What do you mean?
31485What do you propose, then?
31485What do you say to this?
31485What do you think? 31485 What do you want?"
31485What does that mean?
31485What else are you out here for?
31485What else did you study?
31485What for?
31485What for?
31485What have I to say?
31485What have you been talking about?
31485What if it had exploded?
31485What is it, Luna?
31485What is it, mammy? 31485 What is it?
31485What is that?
31485What kind of a racket, for instance?
31485What kind of a trip did you have out?
31485What little book are you talking about?
31485What makes you think so?
31485What makes you think that Pierre hates the old man?
31485What sort of a crowd are they?
31485What time ze bank open, eh?
31485What will I do with these sacks?
31485What you mean in hell?
31485What''s a fellow to do?

31485What''s a socialist?
31485What''s going on?
31485What''s that you''re saying?
31485What''s the matter with Morrison?
31485What''s the matter with letting off a box or two of powder under the tram?
31485What''s the matter, Bennie?
31485What''s the use of barking our shins, climbing for last year''s birds''nests? 31485 What''s up, Zephyr?"
31485What?
31485When are you going to send Élise away to school?
31485When can you begin?
31485When will that special be here?
31485When will you have?
31485When ze wattaire bin mek ze godown, you bin find her, heh?
31485Where are you going?

31485Where is Zephyr?
31485Where is he?
31485Where is Élise?
31485Where under the sun did you get these?
31485Where''s Firmstone?
31485Where''ve you been this long time?
31485Who are you, anyway?
31485Who discovered, amidst toils and dangers and deprivations and snowslides, these rich mines of gold and silver? 31485 Who have you got strung?"
31485Who is Cassandra?
31485Who measures up?
31485Who mek ze troub'', heh? 31485 Who opened these mountain wilds?"
31485Who saw you put the bullion in the safe?
31485Who works on Nine and Ten?
31485Who''s Webster?
31485Who''s going to open up?
31485Why are n''t you helping Madame at the Blue Goose?
31485Why ca n''t you talk sense?
31485Why do n''t you speak? 31485 Why do they always call him the old man?
31485Why do you ask?
31485Why not?
31485Why, howdy, Jim? 31485 Will you give me a blank?"
31485Will you take the job?
31485Will you teach me?
31485Will you tell me what this means?
31485Wo n''t you come in?
31485You are aware, of course, that I shall have to make a full report of the accident to the stage to our directors?
31485You are n''t common folks, are you?
31485You are reliable people to trust with a convalescent, are n''t you? 31485 You are sure I''ll not trespass?"
31485You bin got hall you want, Meestaire Firmstone?
31485You came to warn me?
31485You get ze check every month?
31485You go in the tram?
31485You know the last lot of ore you pinched? 31485 You mean Marshall Pass?"
31485You say you can give no explanation of this?
31485You think, then, the bullion was never put into the safe?
31485You thought you would scare me; now, did n''t you?
31485You understand from this, do you not, that the gold recovered from the plates should then be twenty- two dollars and twenty- five cents a ton?
31485You understand, then, that the ore taken from the mine and sent to the mill in May averaged twenty- five dollars a ton?
31485You will? 31485 You''ll teach me; will you?
31485You''re an out- and- out socialist, are n''t you?
31485You''re game?
31485You''re getting too high- toned for common folks, ai n''t you?
31485You''re not going now, are you?

31485_ Moi?_He shrugged his shoulders.
31485_ Moi?_Pierre replaced the bottle of acid on the shelf and picked up a pair of tongs.
31485_ Moi?_he asked.
31485''Vaire is my whip, my dog whip?
31485''Élise bin seexten to- day, heh?
31485After six months''trial, in which we have allowed you a perfectly free hand, can you conscientiously say that you have bettered our prospects?"
31485Ai n''t I do all right by Élise?"
31485Ai n''t she just fed me and flowered me and coddled me general?
31485And Firmstone?
31485And you want to help them same poor devils?"
31485Are n''t you almost ready?
31485Are you heeled?"
31485Are you on?"
31485As for God, who ever saw him?

31485But what instinct is there to guide the human soul that, quickened by unselfish love, is yet walled in by the Stygian darkness of an ignorant life?
31485But, man to man, Mr. Hartwell, ai n''t the superintendent got a thousand chances to steal, and steal big, where a common workman ai n''t got one?"
31485Can you wait a few minutes?"
31485Comprenny?"
31485Did any of it get away?"
31485Did you go through square root?"
31485Do I not have plenty ze troub'', but you mus''mek ze more?
31485Do all the big folks back East have to have books and go to school to learn such things?
31485Do n''t I know him now?
31485Do n''t I know how hard it is?"
31485Do n''t I tek good care, also?
31485Do n''t you know what I want to ask?
31485Do n''t you understand?"
31485Do they say much about him?"
31485Do you agree?"
31485Do you get it?
31485Do you get your pay for the fifteen days?
31485Do you hear?
31485Do you hear?
31485Do you think I will ever grow into a dear, sober old thing like you?
31485Do you think she will ever be ashamed of me?"
31485Do you want me to teach you square root?"
31485For what end?
31485From behind, Madame felt two soft hands close on her straining eyes, and a sympathetic voice:"Has daddy been scolding you again?
31485Get on to anything at the bridge?"
31485Glancing at the miner, he remarked, benevolently:"Smelling trouble, and pulling out, eh?"
31485Got another Camp Bird?"
31485Had she not thought of all this a thousand times?
31485Hall ze res''ze time wiz no li''l Élise?
31485Hartwell?"
31485Have n''t you got something good in your pack?
31485Heh?
31485Heh?
31485Heh?
31485Heh?"
31485How about the magazine?"
31485How are you coming on with the organisation?"
31485How did it happen?"
31485How did you find out all that?"
31485How did you learn to make flowers?"
31485How do you propose to help it?"
31485How long is he going to keep either a thief or a fool in your place?"
31485How many times have you fired up?"
31485How would it have been with Madame had she years ago chosen him instead of Pierre?
31485How''s things at the mine?"
31485I----"But Morrison interrupted:"You''ve been squealing, have you?
31485If Haskins''s gang is wiped out to- morrow, and that glass- eyed supe with them, who''ll get jumped?
31485If Pierre cared so much for li''l Élise how much more reason had she to care?
31485If the mine and mill both get blowed up, who''s done it?
31485If we ca n''t stop him can we get rid of him?"
31485If you do n''t know your business what are you there for, and how long are you going to stay?
31485In the first place, how did you find out that I had been subjecting the men to this humiliating espionage, as you call it?"
31485Is n''t that so?"
31485Is that our job?"
31485Is there any more information you want that you wo n''t get?"
31485It would cut her off from them forever, and what was her gain?
31485It''s grub, is it?
31485Just what does it assay?"
31485Madame did not fully understand, but what did it matter?
31485Me?
31485Me?
31485Minion?"
31485Morrison''s eyes fell from before her; but he demanded:"Where did you pick up that-- that scab?"
31485No take ten, fifteen stick, ten, fifteen candle, use two, four, sell ze res''?"
31485No weapons?
31485Nor of rods that made a hole three feet, when it was four?"
31485Now what I want to know is this: Have n''t the men just as good a right to post notices as the company has?"
31485Of course, the law will take your time before the company''s; but what does that amount to?
31485Of what value is it to a man to do two others, if he gets soaked in the neck himself?"
31485Only, if I was there, I could n''t be here, and it''s just glorious here, is n''t it?
31485Or will you allow me?"
31485Perhaps she did not realise the danger, but was he to hold it of less value on that account?
31485Pierre?
31485Say, Goggles, how are you off for chuck?
31485Self- defence?"
31485Shall we hang up ten, or put on Morrison?"
31485She mek no complain, heh?"
31485She no say,''Madame Marie, tek my li''l babby back Eas''to my friend,_ hein_?

31485So she learn speak gran''?
31485So she tink of me, Pierre, one li''l Frenchmens, not good enough for her, for mek her shame wiz her gran''friends?
31485Suppose we go out one by one and shoot back?
31485Suppose you go out like lambs?
31485Suppose you want your money right away, do you get it?"
31485Taking a nap?"
31485That was an awful long time ago, though, was n''t it?"
31485The idea was revolting, but what could he do?
31485The question is, how are we going to stop him?
31485Then addressing Firmstone,"I suppose our quarters upstairs are in order?"
31485Then, after a moment''s pause, he asked, explosively,--"Was there that amount?"
31485Think I ca n''t run a mine?"
31485Tipped me the grand ha- ha; did you?
31485Was he lavish in his garnishment of the Blue Goose?
31485Was he to accept what she gave him, and then through fear of malicious tongues abandon her to her fate without a thought?
31485Was it because I ran away this morning?
31485Was it necessary to force the choice?
31485We mek good care of ze li''l Élise, me and you, heh?
31485We sen''away Élise?
31485What are you going to do?
31485What did you call it?"
31485What do you do?
31485What do you say?"
31485What have you been saying?"
31485What if Pierre had fiercely protected her from the knowledge of the more loathsome vices of a mining camp?
31485What if it is murder and one of the gang is pulled?
31485What if the clutch should slip that held the bucket in place?
31485What is it?"
31485What makes the rich richer?
31485What matter?
31485What new kind of bug is biting you?"
31485What next?"
31485What next?"
31485What was it about this time?
31485What you tink, heh?
31485What''s a lexicon?"
31485What''s it for, then?
31485What''s the matter?"
31485What''s the trouble, Zephyr?
31485What''s up?"
31485What''s zoo-- what did you call it-- about?"
31485What, then?
31485When ze wattaire mek ze godown, you not find ze safe?"
31485Where are you going, Arthur?"
31485Where did you learn them?"
31485Where in hell''s Jack?"
31485Where''s the Rainbow trail?"
31485Where''s your nerve?"
31485Who are they?"
31485Who but the honest sons of honest toil?
31485Who else?"
31485Who else?"
31485Who made them accessible by waggon trail and railroads and burros?
31485Who mek her grow up strong?
31485Who mek ze care for ze li''l babby?
31485Who''s to blame?"
31485Why did n''t you tell me about Élise?"
31485Why do n''t you go?"
31485Why had he not thought of it before?
31485Why had she not thought of them before?
31485Why is it that a poor labouring man is always suspected and looked out for, and those as has bigger chances goes free?
31485Why not talk this over sensibly?"
31485Why not telephone?"
31485Why should she?
31485Why?"
31485Will Miss Hartwell be down soon?"
31485Will you attend to your business and leave my affairs alone?"
31485Will you come back some time for mine?"
31485Will you give me the right to ask?"
31485Will you take the job?"
31485With which of them was Zephyr most familiar, and was there any one by means of which Zephyr could thwart him by threatening exposure?
31485Wo n''t Frenchy pull the long face when he hears of your find?"
31485Wo n''t you be seated?"
31485Wo n''t you share our lunch?"
31485Would n''t you like to go as far as the Falls?
31485Would you like to have me teach you?"
31485You ai n''t in no hurry?"
31485You are quite sure you wo n''t get tired waiting?
31485You bin see her, heh?"

31485You do n''t want me to leave you; do you?

31485You keep your own time; but what does that amount to?
31485You know I was sixteen my last birthday, just a week ago?"
31485You mek me, Pierre, you, grow hol''wiz noddings?
31485You never heard of tapes that measured thirteen inches to the foot, did you?
