7100But how can we do it if we do n''t know what it is?
7100How you going to get them?
7100Must we always kill the people?
7100No, sir,I says;"is there some for me?"
7100Now,says Ben Rogers,"what''s the line of business of this Gang?"
7100Oh, that''s all very fine to SAY, Tom Sawyer, but how in the nation are these fellows going to be ransomed if we do n''t know how to do it to them? 7100 Ransomed?
7100The widow, hey?--and who told the widow she could put in her shovel about a thing that ai n''t none of her business?
7100Well, hain''t he got a father?
7100Well,I says,"s''pose we got some genies to help US-- can''t we lick the other crowd then?"
7100Who makes them tear around so?
7100And looky here-- you drop that school, you hear?
7100Did you come for your interest?"
7100Do n''t I tell you it''s in the books?
7100Do n''t you reckon that the people that made the books knows what''s the correct thing to do?
7100Do you reckon YOU can learn''em anything?
7100Do you want to go to doing different from what''s in the books, and get things all muddled up?"
7100He says:"Why, what can you mean, my boy?"
7100He set there a- mumbling and a- growling a minute, and then he says:"AIN''T you a sweet- scented dandy, though?
7100He took up a little blue and yaller picture of some cows and a boy, and says:"What''s this?"
7100Hey?--how''s that?"
7100How can they get loose when there''s a guard over them, ready to shoot them down if they move a peg?"
7100How do THEY get them?"
7100I ai n''t the man to stand it-- you hear?
7100I said, why could n''t we see them, then?
7100I says to myself, if a body can get anything they pray for, why do n''t Deacon Winn get back the money he lost on pork?
7100Is something the matter?"
7100Kill the women?
7100Now, what do you reckon it is?"
7100Pretty soon Jim says:"Say, who is you?
7100Say, do we kill the women, too?"
7100Say, how much you got in your pocket?
7100Then Ben Rogers says:"Here''s Huck Finn, he hain''t got no family; what you going to do''bout him?"
7100Then he says:"Who dah?"
7100Whar is you?
7100What I wanted to know was, what he was going to do, and was he going to stay?
7100What you know''bout witches?"
7100What''s that?"
7100Who told you you might meddle with such hifalut''n foolishness, hey?--who told you you could?"
7100Why ca n''t Miss Watson fat up?
7100Why ca n''t a body take a club and ransom them as soon as they get here?"
7100Why ca n''t the widow get back her silver snuffbox that was stole?
7100Why could n''t you said that before?
7100You lemme catch you fooling around that school again, you hear?
7100You think you''re a good deal of a big- bug, DON''T you?"
7100You think you''re better''n your father, now, do n''t you, because he ca n''t?
7100You''ll take it--won''t you?"
7100and I as high as a tree and as big as a church?
7104Did anybody send''em word?
7104Do I know you? 7104 Funeral to- morrow, likely?"
7104Hamlet''s which?
7104Is dat so?
7104Was Peter Wilks well off?
7104What''s onkores, Bilgewater?
7104When did you say he died?
7104Wher''you bound for, young man?
7104Why do n''t it, Huck?
7104Why do you reckon Harvey do n''t come? 7104 YOU talk like an Englishman, DON''T you?
7104Ai n''t that sensible?"
7104And what kind o''uncles would it be that''d rob-- yes, ROB-- sech poor sweet lambs as these''at he loved so at sech a time?
7104Ask him to show up?
7104By and by, when they was asleep and snoring, Jim says:"Do n''t it s''prise you de way dem kings carries on, Huck?"
7104He says:"If gentlemen kin afford to pay a dollar a mile apiece to be took on and put off in a yawl, a steamboat kin afford to carry''em, ca n''t it?"
7104He see me, and rode up and says:"Whar''d you come f''m, boy?
7104How does he go at it--give notice?--give the country a show?
7104How old is the others?"
7104Is Mary Jane the oldest?
7104Is that ALL?"
7104It make me mad; en I says agin, mighty loud, I says:"''Doan''you hear me?
7104Now, WOULDN''T he?
7104S''pose he contracted to do a thing, and you paid him, and did n''t set down there and see that he done it-- what did he do?
7104S''pose he opened his mouth-- what then?
7104S''pose people left money laying around where he was-- what did he do?
7104Says the king:"Dern him, I wonder what he done with that four hundred and fifteen dollars?"
7104The king he smiled eager, and shoved out his flapper, and says:"Is it my poor brother''s dear good friend and physician?
7104The windows and dooryards was full; and every minute somebody would say, over a fence:"Is it THEM?"
7104Then he says:"How are you on the deef and dumb, Bilgewater?"
7104Then he says:"What did you want to walk all the way up to the steamboat for?"
7104Twenty people sings out:"What, is it over?
7104Well, then, what kind o''brothers would it be that''d stand in his way at sech a time?
7104Well, what did he do?
7104What was the use to tell Jim these warn''t real kings and dukes?
7104Wher''does he live?"
7104Why do n''t your juries hang murderers?
7104Why, Billy, it beats the Nonesuch, DON''T it?"
7104Will you?"
7104You AIN''T him, are you?"
7104You going to Orleans, you say?"
7104You prepared to die?"
7104and Abner Shackleford says:"Why, Robinson, hain''t you heard the news?
7104they give a glance at one another, and nodded their heads, as much as to say,"What d''I tell you?"
51118Do you know who the parties are?
51118What have you been doing that they have arrested you? 51118 A man named Charley Durham who had resided at West Plains and had met me several times, rode up near us and asked me;What did you say your name was?"
51118About that time some man near the warehouse called out:"Who in hell are you?
51118After we were dressed in their old clothing, one of them asked:"What did you say your name was?"
51118And what are you doing here?"
51118Are you going to cage me?"
51118Could n''t you tie the knot upon them to hang them?"
51118Do you hear the drums and the fife?
51118Do you know what we are going to do with such men as you are?
51118Do you want us to take you up to headquarters?"
51118Had we not better accept the proposition and wait for results?"
51118He asked:"Did you ever live down here about the state line?"
51118He came to the author laughing and remarked:"You found my corn, did you?
51118Hogan stepped up to him and said,"You little rascal, would you attempt to cut me with a knife?"
51118Hogan, with an oath, said,"What are you doing with my horse?"
51118How are you getting along?
51118I asked him if he thought we would be able to remain there until morning?
51118I told him"That is my business; when you was in the military service did you inform the civilians of your object and aims?
51118I would ask him;"What''s the matter now?
51118Is that you?
51118Nicks said,"You have got him, have you?
51118On reaching the company Captain Forshee walked out of the line and remarked to them"Why have you brought him in here alive?"
51118Shall we attempt to run, or had we better pass them?"
51118The Captain came inside of the guard, called out,"Monks, are you asleep?"
51118The author asked, just as they had completed the tying,"What do you mean?
51118The author at once arose to his feet and remarked,"I am here, what is wanted?"
51118The author halted, of course, and the next remark was,"Who are you and where is the balance of your crowd?"
51118The author raised up in a sitting position and said,"Captain what is wanted"?
51118The author said to Long:"What shall we do?
51118The judge then said to him,"What about that money of yours; are you able to pay the$ 150 fine?"
51118The judge turned to him and remarked,"Mr., what did those boots cost you?"
51118The sheriff and others would come to me and say:"Colonel, why did n''t you shoot some of those fellows long ago?
51118There were four or five negro men standing upon the street corner and one of the officers holloed out to the negroes;"Which way did the rebels go?"
51118They said,"What does this mean?
51118What do think now in regard to the two parties living together?"
51118What is it that men wo n''t do?"
51118What''s the matter?"
51118Will there be no history left to tell of the heroism and devotion to their country in its darkest hour?
51118You do n''t intend to enforce it, do you, Captain?"
51118Your people may ask the question, what right have you Missourians to come down into our state?
45558And where are the soldiers of General Price?
45558Are you a Confederate soldier?
45558Brasher, did you know that those blankets you loaned me last night were filled with lice?
45558How is it, General, that I see so many Union soldiers out here?
45558What are you, then?
45558What''s up?
45558Where is your master now?
45558Who is General Mitchell, and where is he?
45558Why not move them to the assistance of our brave boys on the left?
45558Why, no; were they?
45558Another matter of discussion is,"where to, next?"
45558As he fell, one of his officers sprang to his side, and inquired anxiously:"Are you hurt?"
45558But here there was no other wood convenient, and the question with the boys was, how are we to make coffee?
45558Can aliens make treaties easier than friends can make laws?
45558Can any one satisfactorily explain the reason why our soldiers are restricted to a certain kind of food?
45558Can treaties be more faithfully enforced between aliens, than laws can among friends?
45558G-- d d-- n you, do n''t you know sir, you should furnish me the exact number?"
45558General Nelson then turned to Governor Morton and said:"By G-- d, did you come here also to insult me?"
45558General Nelson-- violently to the bystanders--"Did you hear the d-- d rascal insult me?"
45558General Nelson--"How many men have you?"
45558How is it that I am here?
45558How was the river to be crossed?
45558In reply to"who comes there?"
45558Is it possible, then, to make that intercourse more advantageous or more satisfactory after separation than before?
45558Is the question an unreasonable one?
45558Is this the hospital?
45558Knowing all these things, why should they not anticipate a speedy termination to their soldier life, and enjoy in anticipation home society once more?
45558Many were the inquiries,"Why are all these thousands of soldiers kept here idle all the day so near the battle- field?"
45558Never again look upon the bright and cheerful faces of those I left behind me there?
45558Now, then, what is the daily occupation of the inhabitants of these tents?
45558Say, what is the meaning of this?
45558Shall I never more behold it?
45558That fellow in the dress of a Union soldier, what is he doing?
45558The question is frequently discussed in camp,"Why are we not better provided for-- why are we compelled to live on hard bread and old bacon?"
45558The question now arose,"how is the river to be crossed?"
45558To lay in the shade here, and have slaves to wait on you-- what more could be desired?
45558Undaunted, and ready for the battle as ever, they inquired:"Who will be our leader?"
45558What does this mean?
45558What is that fellow doing?
45558Why do we not get it?
45558Why not bury it with him?
45558Why not provide the diet as a preventive to the disease?
45558Why remain idle so long?
45558Why should they not?
45558Why was General Fremont removed from the command at this most auspicious moment?
45558Why was it that General Buell did not reinforce that bravely defended garrison?
45558Why was this retrograde movement to be made?
45558Will it be believed?
45558are they going to cut_ all_ our trees?''"
45558said the planter,"and how came you here?"
45558where the hell am I?
22534And do you ever think how good God is to have given you a praying mother, when so many little children have never heard of God or Heaven?
22534And has he not proved himself faithful to that declaration?
22534And why should I not be joyous again?
22534And will she not now try to find the Saviour, who is always found of them that seek Him earnestly and faithfully?
22534But how often do you see men so steadfast, so disinterested and devoted through life?
22534But what was to become of my dear sisters, and our brothers--all of whom were younger than ourselves?
22534But you may ask what is the difficulty?
22534Charless, who shot you? � He replied, � A man by the name of Thornton.
22534Dear C., are not these things worth our most strenuous efforts?
22534Did a father ever bear more patiently with the foibles and imperfections of his children?
22534Did you ever think what a blessing it is to go to sleep, my dear little children?
22534Do you ask, Why not judge the effect of religion from these as well as from better and more pleasing cases?
22534Elevating his voice, said he, � Do you refuse to speak to me, sir? � Still a wave of the hand- � nothing more.
22534Has dear � mother � s � health improved?
22534Has he not been to us, in our destitute orphanage, more than a husband and a brother?
22534Has not his loving arm embraced us all?
22534Have I not dear children to love me, and is not my dear husband alive, and shall I not see him again?
22534How is � grandma, � and � Cousin Eliza, � and little Joe and Ella, and � aunt Loo, � and all our dear friends?"
22534I am not over particular at all, at all. � � Can you dig potatoes? � � Praities!
22534Is not God still good, and has he ever tried me more than I am able to bear?
22534Is there no hope? � � No hope here, � replied my husband, � but a bright hope beyond! � Thank God!
22534One of the gentlemen asked,"Are you sure, Mr. Charless?
22534There was a shade of mortification on his whole- souled face, mingled with a playful humor, as he said:"Has mother put you to work already?"
22534Towards the close of his sufferings, said he, � Will my heart strings never break?
22534Was a father ever less selfish than he has been?
22534Was he not with me in the deep waters?
22534What are the orphan � s tears, or the widow � s groans �-what is human suffering to him?
22534What right had we to murmur?
22534When she arrived, in broken accents she asked, � Is there no hope?
22534Why should it not have added to his happiness?
22534Will you not seek that happiness?
22534Yet, after many trials, He saves him from his sins �-and, might we not almost say, for his mother � s sake?
22534do you expect to dwell?
22534� The poor ye have always with you �- � why if not to keep the stream of benevolence running fresh and sweet?
22534� What kind of work can you do? � inquired your grandfather.
12068''What regiment do you belong to?'' 12068 Ah, I beg your pardon; but what is your impression of Fort Donelson?"
12068Are you sure of that?
12068Battle sure to come off-- is it?
12068But how is it when a negro, by working nights or Saturdays, manages to make something for himself?
12068Can you tell me on which days he gave you each ticket?
12068Certainly we are,responded another;"but who will represent us?"
12068Come back here,said the officer;"what do you mean by this?"
12068D-- n your friends,said the guerrilla leader;"I suppose they are Yankees?"
12068Did you earn all these this week?
12068Do you dislike the Black Republicans very much?
12068Do you see that young man crossing the street toward----''s store?
12068How did you cross the river, gentlemen?
12068How do you know?
12068How far are you firing?
12068If it was given to them,I asked,"was it not theirs to sell?"
12068Is it possible?
12068Is the plan arranged?
12068No,we responded;"what is it?"
12068That is very true; but how was it at Shiloh?
12068Them round things? 12068 Then why ai n''t you killed, too, you d----d coward?"
12068Then why should n''t you pay me ten dollars every time I''tend upon the black folks on the plantation?
12068What are you doing here?
12068What are you doing there?
12068What kind of a Union man are you?
12068What''s you- uns come down here to fight we- uns for?
12068What_ are_ you crying for, then?
12068Where did you come from?
12068Where is K----, and where is Colburn?
12068Where were they from?
12068Which one did he give you to- day?
12068Whisky, is n''t it?
12068White people are free, too, ai n''t they?
12068Who comes there?
12068Who will we send? 12068 Will some of you learned ones tell me,"said he,"what is the Latin word for_ true_?"
12068After a little preliminary talk, one of them said:"Are you aware, general, there is no law of the State allowing you to make a cut- off, here?"
12068After a pause, she spoke again:"Did n''t you say the black people are free?"
12068After some desultory conversation, he threw out the question:--"What does martial law do?"
12068An Arkansas colonel was in bed when the order reached him, and lazily asked,"Is that official?"
12068As soon as he could speak, he asked, breathing between, the words--"Have you heard the news?"
12068But, pray, what do you consider the capture of Island Number Ten and the naval battle here?"
12068By- the- way, Mr. K----, how did you come over?"
12068Do you think, if I put them with yours, there is any danger of their straying, on account of being on a strange place?"
12068Does any soldier, who reads this, imagine himself tendering his resignation in the above manner with any prospect of its acceptance?
12068He promptly replied:"The parish of Madison gave a large majority in favor of secession; did it not?"
12068If the deeds of which the Rebels were guilty are characteristic of chivalry, who would wish to be a son of the Cavaliers?
12068Is it not acknowledged everywhere that a man shall be tried by his peers?"
12068K----?"
12068Mysteries of Mule- trading.--"What''s in a Name?"
12068Mysteries of Mule- trading.--"What''s in a Name?"
12068Once I asked a rough- looking farmer,"How far is it to Sand Springs?"
12068Should it banish me from that spot, or should I receive an official censure?
12068Who can resist the questions of a woman, even though she be an uneducated and unkempt Missourian?
12068Who could believe in the existence of a reliable countryman, after that?
7199Can you find the way, Tom? 7199 Could you see the rags by the light of the cigars?"
7199Do it NOW? 7199 Do you remember this?"
7199How''ll she ever know?
7199How?
7199I wonder how long we''ve been down here, Tom? 7199 Joe Harper, have you seen my Tom this morning?"
7199Kill? 7199 Lordy, what did you do?
7199Say, Tom, did you see that box?
7199Tom, it might be dark then-- would they notice we had n''t come?
7199Well, Becky?
7199What!--what''d you see, Tom?
7199What''s the row there? 7199 When did you see him last?"
7199When would they miss us, Tom?
7199Why, who are you?
7199Yes,with a startled look--"didn''t she stay with you last night?"
7199Your Becky?
7199And company there?
7199And why should he give it up, he reasoned-- the signal did not come the night before, so why should it be any more likely to come to- night?
7199But what could she be crying about?
7199But what did give you that turn?
7199But why do n''t you want it known?"
7199But you could n''t see what they were like, in the dark, lad, I suppose?"
7199By- and- by somebody shouted:"Who''s ready for the cave?"
7199Did he wake up?"
7199Did you hear that?"
7199Do n''t you see, now, what''s the matter with that ha''nted room?"
7199Do you understand that?
7199HORSEWHIPPED!--do you understand?
7199Huck started up in bed, wild- eyed:"What?
7199If she bleeds to death, is that my fault?
7199Maybe ALL the Temperance Taverns have got a ha''nted room, hey, Huck?"
7199Now, where you going to sleep?"
7199Now-- this way-- now you see, do n''t you?"
7199The old man promised secrecy once more, and said:"How did you come to follow these fellows, lad?
7199Then Becky reflected a moment and said:"But what will mamma say?"
7199Then he said:"Becky, can you bear it if I tell you something?"
7199They found none, but captured a bulky bundle of--"Of WHAT?"
7199Was it Tom Sawyer that found it?"
7199Was there any use?
7199Was there really any use?
7199Were they looking suspicious?"
7199What do you want?"
7199What was it?"
7199What were YOU expecting we''d found?"
7199Who said anything about killing?
7199Who''d''a''thought such a thing?
7199Who''s banging?
7199Why call Tom now?
7199Why did n''t you come and wake me?"
7199Why not give it up and turn in?
7199Why, what''s the MATTER with you?"
7199You go back and watch that long, will you?"
7199Your mother wo n''t know, and so what''s the harm?
7195Do you though?
7195Hucky, do you das''t to go if I lead?
7195Look here, what does this mean?
7195Lord, how is this, Joe?
7195No--''tain''t so, is it?
7195Now, sir, what did you want to treat that poor dumb beast so, for?
7195Then art thou indeed that famous outlaw? 7195 They do, do they?"
7195Tom, what on earth ails that cat?
7195Tom,whispered Huckleberry,"does this keep us from EVER telling--ALWAYS?"
7195What are you talking about? 7195 What did you do it for?"
7195What is it, Huck?
7195What is it, Tom?
7195What is it?
7195What you got on your mind, Tom?
7195What''s the reason he do n''t know it?
7195What''s verdigrease?
7195Which of us does he mean?
7195Who art thou that dares to hold such language?
7195Who''s accused you?
7195Who? 7195 Why did n''t you leave?
7195You DO?
7195After another reflective silence, Tom said:"Hucky, you sure you can keep mum?"
7195By and by their pulses slowed down, and Tom whispered:"Huckleberry, what do you reckon''ll come of this?"
7195Can you pray?"
7195Could it be possible that she was not aware that he was there?
7195D''you reckon he could see anything?
7195D''you reckon he knowed anything?"
7195Did he before?"
7195Did n''t Gracie Miller fall in the kitchen fire and burn herself terrible the very next Saturday?"
7195Did n''t you hear it?"
7195Did you think I''d forget?
7195Do n''t you remember?
7195He saw Injun Joe, and exclaimed:"Oh, Injun Joe, you promised me you''d never--""Is that your knife?"
7195How can he tell?"
7195It''s awful solemn like, AIN''T it?"
7195NOW who can he mean?"
7195S''pose something happened and Injun Joe DIDN''T hang?
7195So he said in a whisper:"Hucky, do you believe the dead people like it for us to be here?"
7195Tell WHAT?
7195Tell me, Joe-- HONEST, now, old feller-- did I do it?
7195Then Tom whispered:"Say, Hucky-- do you reckon Hoss Williams hears us talking?"
7195Think they''ll see us?"
7195Tom thought a while, then he said:"Who''ll tell?
7195We''d drop down dead-- don''t YOU know that?"
7195We?"
7195What did make him act so?"
7195What did you want to come here for?"
7195What had he done?
7195What has that got to do with it?"
7195What if he turned his back, now, and disappeared mysteriously?
7195What is it you''ll tell?"
7195What kin they be up to?"
7195What''ll we do?"
7195What''s that?"
7195Where''bouts is it, Huck?"
7195Who comes here into Sherwood Forest without my pass?"
7195Who does he mean?"
7195Who?"
7195Why do n''t you fall yourself?
7195Why do n''t you fall?"
7195Why had he not been called-- persecuted till he was up, as usual?
7195You WON''T tell, WILL you, Joe?"
7194Becky, wo n''t you say something?
7194Did he say anything?
7194Do you? 7194 Everybody?"
7194Good for? 7194 Have you?
7194In the daytime?
7194Kiss? 7194 Like?
7194Look here, Joe Harper, whose is that tick?
7194Oh, auntie, I''m--"What''s the matter with you-- what is the matter with you, child?
7194Oh, will you? 7194 Oh, you do n''t, do n''t you?
7194Say, Hucky, when you going to try the cat?
7194Say-- what is dead cats good for, Huck?
7194Shall I tell YOU?
7194Tom, why did n''t you wake me sooner? 7194 Was you ever at a circus?"
7194Well, what of it? 7194 Well, why do n''t you?
7194What did you give?
7194What was it?
7194What''ll you give?
7194What''ll you take for her?
7194What''ll you take for him?
7194What''s that you got?
7194What''s that?
7194Where''d you get him?
7194Where''d you get the blue ticket?
7194Why, what''s the matter, Tom? 7194 With his face to the stump?"
7194Would you like to?
7194You wo n''t tell anybody at all? 7194 You would n''t, would n''t you?
7194At last he said:"Is it genuwyne?"
7194At the door Tom dropped back a step and accosted a Sunday- dressed comrade:"Say, Billy, got a yaller ticket?"
7194But say-- how do you cure''em with dead cats?"
7194But you must n''t ever tell anybody-- WILL you, Tom?
7194But you''ve another one I daresay, and you''ll tell it to me, wo n''t you?"
7194By jings, do n''t you wish you was Jeff?"
7194D''you ever try it, Huck?"
7194D''you ever try it?"
7194Did n''t they get him Saturday night?"
7194Do you go home to dinner?"
7194Do you remember what I wrote on the slate?"
7194Ever, as long as you live?"
7194He said to himself, it is not possible that the boy can answer the simplest question-- why DID the Judge ask him?
7194He said:"Do you love rats?"
7194How did he know she was a- witching him?"
7194How long you been this way?"
7194How many of my readers would have the industry and application to memorize two thousand verses, even for a Dore Bible?
7194Is that so?
7194Lemme go with you?"
7194Now you wo n''t, WILL you?"
7194Now, sir, why are you late again, as usual?"
7194Say, Becky, was you ever engaged?"
7194Say-- what''s that?"
7194So all this row was because you thought you''d get to stay home from school and go a- fishing?
7194The master said:"You-- you did what?"
7194Tom, what is the matter?"
7194Tom, what''s the matter with you?"
7194What do you kiss for?"
7194What is it like?"
7194What is it?"
7194What is the matter, Tom?"
7194What''s the matter with your tooth?"
7194What''s your name?"
7194What''s your way?"
7194What''s yours?
7194When I''m gone--""Oh, Tom, you ai n''t dying, are you?
7194When?"
7194Where''d you get him?"
7194Why do n''t you tell me, Mary?--what do you want to be so mean for?"
7194Will you meow?"
7194Will you?"
7194Wo n''t you tell us the names of the first two that were appointed?"
7194You call me Tom, will you?"
7198''Bout what?
7198Any one with you?
7198Do n''t they come after it any more?
7198Do they hop?
7198Get me to tell? 7198 Have you got one of them papers, Tom?"
7198Huck, have you ever told anybody about-- that?
7198HyroQwhich?
7198Is it under all of them?
7198Never a word?
7198No?
7198Revenge? 7198 Richard?
7198Save it? 7198 Say, Huck, if we find a treasure here, what you going to do with your share?"
7198Talk? 7198 Then how you going to know which one to go for?"
7198Thomas Sawyer, where were you on the seventeenth of June, about the hour of midnight?
7198Well then, how you going to find the marks?
7198Well, I never said I was, did I? 7198 Well, ai n''t you going to save any of it?"
7198Well, what did you say they did, for?
7198Well, what of that? 7198 Well-- if you say so; what''ll we do with this-- bury it again?"
7198Were you anywhere near Horse Williams''grave?
7198Were you hidden, or not?
7198What ai n''t a dream?
7198What is it?
7198What is it?
7198What is the talk around, Huck? 7198 What''ll it be?"
7198What''s a YEW bow?
7198What''s that?.
7198Where''ll we dig?
7198Where?
7198Who hides it?
7198Why, is it hid all around?
7198Why, robbers, of course-- who''d you reckon? 7198 After a pause:Huck, they could n''t anybody get you to tell, could they?"
7198Anyway, what''s her name, Tom?"
7198But anyway they do n''t come around in the daytime, so what''s the use of our being afeard?"
7198But say-- where you going to dig first?"
7198But wo n''t the widow take it away from us, Tom?
7198Can you get out?"
7198Did they fight?"
7198Did this attorney mean to throw away his client''s life without an effort?
7198Do n''t you feel sorry for him, sometimes?"
7198Do you know Robin Hood, Huck?"
7198Do you reckon they can be up- stairs?"
7198Follow?
7198Hain''t you ever seen one, Huck?"
7198Have you heard anybody?--seen anybody?
7198He gathered himself up cursing, and his comrade said:"Now what''s the use of all that?
7198Hear it?"
7198How near were you?"
7198How''s that?"
7198Huck said:"Do they always bury it as deep as this?"
7198If it''s anybody, and they''re up there, let them STAY there-- who cares?
7198If they want to jump down, now, and get into trouble, who objects?
7198Is that so?"
7198Now what you going to do?"
7198Presently he said:"Who could have brought those tools here?
7198S''pose we tackle that old dead- limb tree on the hill t''other side of Still- House branch?"
7198Sunday- school sup''rintendents?"
7198The poor fellow had got the attorney to promise secrecy, but what of that?
7198Tom was impatient to go to the haunted house; Huck was measurably so, also-- but suddenly said:"Lookyhere, Tom, do you know what day it is?"
7198What business has a pick and a shovel here?
7198What business with fresh earth on them?
7198What did you take there?"
7198What do you reckon it is?"
7198What do you think?"
7198What for?"
7198What makes you ask?"
7198What you going to do with yourn, Tom?"
7198What''ll we do with what little swag we''ve got left?"
7198What''s his other name?"
7198What''s the name of the gal?"
7198Who brought them here-- and where are they gone?
7198Who did he rob?"
7198Who''s Robin Hood?"
7198You mean Number One?"
7198bury it again and leave them to come and see the ground disturbed?
7198have I been asleep?"
7107And JIM?
7107Blame it, ca n''t you TRY? 7107 But looky here, Tom, what do we want to WARN anybody for that something''s up?
7107But my lan'', Mars Sid, how''s I gwyne to make''m a witch pie? 7107 Geewhillikins,"I says,"but what does the rest of it mean?"
7107HANNEL''m, Mars Sid? 7107 HIM?"
7107Keep what, Mars Tom?
7107Oh, DO shet up!--s''pose the rats took the SHEET? 7107 Then what on earth did YOU want to set him free for, seeing he was already free?"
7107Well, anyway,I says,"what''s SOME of it?
7107Well, then, what possessed you to go down there this time of night?
7107Well, then, what we going to do, Tom?
7107Well-- WHAT?
7107What DOES the child mean?
7107What letter?
7107What letters?
7107What three?
7107What whole thing?
7107What you been doing down there?
7107What''s them?
7107Where''s Jim?
7107Who is your folks?
7107Why, what else is gone, Sally?
7107Why, where ever did you go?
7107Will you do it, honey?--will you? 7107 With WHO?
7107Yes, DEY will, I reck''n, Mars Tom, but what kine er time is JIM havin''? 7107 You do n''t KNOW?
7107You numskull, did n''t you see me COUNT''m?
7107You would n''t look like a servant- girl THEN, would you?
7107''n''who dug that- air HOLE?
7107And after a minute, he says:"How''d you say he got shot?"
7107And by and by the old man says:"Did I give you the letter?"
7107And you wo n''t go?
7107But Tom thought of something, and says:"You got any spiders in here, Jim?"
7107Ca n''t you think of no way?"
7107Could you raise a flower here, do you reckon?"
7107Did you tell Aunty?"
7107Hain''t you got no principle at all?"
7107Has n''t he got away?"
7107He''d LET me shove his head in my mouf-- fer a favor, hain''t it?
7107His eyes just blazed; and he says:"No!--is that so?
7107How''d it get there?"
7107How''s that?
7107I says to myself, spos''n he ca n''t fix that leg just in three shakes of a sheep''s tail, as the saying is?
7107I says:"Why, Jim?"
7107I was going to say yes; but she chipped in and says:"About what, Sid?"
7107Is dat like Mars Tom Sawyer?
7107S''e, what do YOU think of it, Sister Hotchkiss, s''e?
7107Sh- she, Sister Hotchkiss, sh- she--""But how in the nation''d they ever GIT that grindstone IN there, ANYWAY?
7107Snake take''n bite Jim''s chin off, den WHAH is de glory?
7107THINK of it, s''I?
7107Think o''that bed- leg sawed off that a way, s''e?
7107Think o''what, Brer Phelps, s''I?
7107Tom looks at me very grave, and says:"Tom, did n''t you just tell me he was all right?
7107WELL, den, is JIM gywne to say it?
7107WHERE''S it gone, Lize?"
7107What HAS become of that boy?"
7107What IS you a- talkin''''bout?
7107What are we going to do?--lay around there till he lets the cat out of the bag?
7107What makes them come here just at this runaway nigger''s breakfast- time?
7107What you going to do about the servant- girl?"
7107What you reckon I better do?
7107What''s a bar sinister?"
7107What''s a fess?"
7107Where could you keep it?"
7107Where you been all this time, you rascal?"
7107Where''s the raft?"
7107Who''d you reckon?"
7107Who''s Jim''s mother?"
7107Why, Huck, s''pose it IS considerble trouble?--what you going to do?--how you going to get around it?
7107Why, that ai n''t TOM, it''s Sid; Tom''s-- Tom''s-- why, where is Tom?
7107Would he say dat?
7107You got any rats around here?"
7107You got anything to play music on?"
7107says Aunt Sally;"IS he changed so?
7107says Aunt Sally;"the runaway nigger?
7107spos''n it takes him three or four days?
7103Any men on it?
7103Bilgewater, kin I trust you?
7103Brought you down from whar? 7103 But you can guess, ca n''t you?
7103Cairo? 7103 Dern your skin, ai n''t the company good enough for you?"
7103Do n''t anybody know?
7103Do you belong on it?
7103Drot your pore broken heart,says the baldhead;"what are you heaving your pore broken heart at US f''r?
7103Has anybody been killed this year, Buck?
7103Has there been many killed, Buck?
7103Has this one been going on long, Buck?
7103Him? 7103 How I gwyne to ketch her en I out in de woods?
7103How''m I going to guess,says I,"when I never heard tell of it before?"
7103I do n''t know where he was,says I;"where was he?"
7103Laws, how do I know? 7103 No?"
7103Now, George Jackson, do you know the Shepherdsons?
7103Oh, you did, did you? 7103 Old man,"said the young one,"I reckon we might double- team it together; what do you think?"
7103WHICH candle?
7103Well, if you knowed where he was, what did you ask me for?
7103Well, then, what did you want to kill him for?
7103Well, who done the shooting? 7103 What are you prowling around here this time of night for-- hey?"
7103What did he do to you?
7103What do you want?
7103What got you into trouble?
7103What town is it, mister?
7103What was the trouble about, Buck?--land?
7103What''re you alassin''about?
7103What''s a feud?
7103Who''s me?
7103Why did n''t you tell my Jack to fetch me here sooner, Jim?
7103Why, blame it, it''s a riddle, do n''t you see? 7103 Why, how did you get hold of the raft again, Jim-- did you catch her?"
7103Why, where was you raised? 7103 Yes, it IS good enough for me; it''s as good as I deserve; for who fetched me so low when I was so high?
7103You mean to say our old raft warn''t smashed all to flinders?
7103All through dinner Jim stood around and waited on him, and says,"Will yo''Grace have some o''dis or some o''dat?"
7103And did the sad hearts thicken, And did the mourners cry?
7103Are you all ready?
7103Come slow; push the door open yourself-- just enough to squeeze in, d''you hear?"
7103Conscience says to me,"What had poor Miss Watson done to you that you could see her nigger go off right under your eyes and never say one single word?
7103Do n''t you know what a feud is?"
7103Do you like to comb up Sundays, and all that kind of foolishness?
7103Do you own a dog?
7103Do you reckon you can learn me?"
7103Do you want to spread it all over?"
7103Down by the wood- pile I comes across my Jack, and says:"What''s it all about?"
7103Every little while he jumps up and says:"Dah she is?"
7103George Jackson, is there anybody with you?"
7103Have you ever trod the boards, Royalty?"
7103He says:"Ai n''t they no Shepherdsons around?"
7103How does that strike you?"
7103I ben a- buyin''pots en pans en vittles, as I got a chanst, en a- patchin''up de raf''nights when--""WHAT raft, Jim?"
7103I ranged up and says:"Mister, is that town Cairo?"
7103Is dey out o''sight yit?
7103Is your man white or black?"
7103It ai n''t my fault I warn''t born a duke, it ai n''t your fault you warn''t born a king-- so what''s the use to worry?
7103One of them says:"What''s that yonder?"
7103Say, boy, what''s the matter with your father?"
7103Say, how long are you going to stay here?
7103Says he:"Do n''t you know, Mars Jawge?"
7103So I laid there about an hour trying to think, and when Buck waked up I says:"Can you spell, Buck?"
7103So the question was, what to do?
7103Soon as I could get Buck down by the corn- cribs under the trees by ourselves, I says:"Did you want to kill him, Buck?"
7103That''s the whole yarn-- what''s yourn?
7103The man sung out:"Snatch that light away, Betsy, you old fool-- ain''t you got any sense?
7103Then I thought a minute, and says to myself, hold on; s''pose you''d a done right and give Jim up, would you felt better than what you do now?
7103Then the duke says:"You are what?"
7103Thinks I, what does it mean?
7103Was it a Grangerford or a Shepherdson?"
7103We both knowed well enough it was some more work of the rattlesnake- skin; so what was the use to talk about it?
7103Whar was you brought down from?"
7103What IS the matter with your pap?
7103What did that poor old woman do to you that you could treat her so mean?
7103What did you say your name was?"
7103What do you mean?"
7103What is he up to, anyway?
7103What''s your lay?"
7103What''s your line-- mainly?"
7103When Jim called me to take the watch at four in the morning, he says:"Huck, does you reck''n we gwyne to run acrost any mo''kings on dis trip?"
7103Who''s there?"
7103Why did n''t you come out and say so?
7103Why did n''t you step into the road, my boy?"
7103is dat you, honey?
7103it wo n''t do to fool with small- pox, do n''t you see?"
7103would a runaway nigger run SOUTH?"
7103you ca n''t mean it?"
42322And pray, let me ask, where do you intend that desirable operation to be performed?
42322Anything to trink, shur? 42322 Is this proceeding just and honourable"towards that unfortunate race?
42322What''s your_ name_, any how?

42322If knowledge, pure, defecated knowledge, be a conservative principle, why do we witness these appalling results?
42322Is it in individual villany?
42322Is it in legal enactment?
42322Is it in public sentiment?
42322Is not"knowledge omnipotent to preserve; the salt to purify the nations?"

1318Can he ever be a man among men who has for a time been numbered with the debased of earth?
1318Coming in contact with hardened and vicious criminals, what hope is there for getting these boys into the paths of honesty and uprightness?
1318He then looked at me over the top of his spectacles, and, in a rather doubting manner, said,"and you really have had all these diseases?
1318His next question was,"Are you a sound man?"
1318How can one commit the crime of forgery who can not write?
1318How long were you in prison, and what was your offense?"
1318How was I to secure this?
1318However deplorable the condition of these men while in prison, is it much better when they regain their freedom?
1318I reached out my hand to him, and said:"Charley D----, do n''t you know me?
1318I said to him,"John, tell me how many horses you have stolen during the time you have been engaged in that line of business?"
1318I said,"Bob, is there anything I can do for you?
1318I was never in such a place before, and I said:"George, had I not better get out of this place?
1318If this be the real and true condition of affairs, what can be done to change them?
1318Is it possible for him to be clothed in the garments of respectability who once has been attired in the habiliments of disgrace?
1318Is the penitentiary the proper place to send those youthful offenders?
1318Is there any hope for the ex- convict?
1318Is this boy guilty?
1318Now what does he mean by that?"
1318Reader, did God listen to the wails of that poor heart- stricken prisoner?
1318Reader, how would you like to dine in this condition?
1318Reader, is it not a sad thought that these four young men, brothers, should spend ten of the best years of their lives in a prison?
1318Reader, what do you suppose was the object this convict had in view in thus feigning death?
1318Reader, what would you have done?
1318Reynolds, is this you?"
1318The main question is: Was he in the penitentiary?
1318The question:"What shall I do in the future?"
1318This farmer, like all the rest, put the question,"For whom did you last work?"
1318We have controlled them, and have maintained a discipline second to none in the country, How did we accomplish this?
1318What can be done to lessen this fearful increase of crime?
1318What can be done to snatch them from a career of crime, and to save them from becoming miserable wrecks?
1318What can they accomplish in so short a time?
1318What could I do with five dollars, in the way of assisting me in getting another financial foot- hold in life?
1318What did he hope to gain thereby?
1318What else could I do?
1318What frail mortal of passing time would dare lift up his hand and say, this poor wanderer is forgotten of his God?
1318What was your life''s mission?
1318What, then, are the remedies, as far as the prison system is concerned?
1318Who can say these boys are vicious and hardened criminals?
1318Who of us dare excommunicate him?
1318Who was the monster that had committed this terrible and atrocious act?
1318Who will employ a convict?
1318Who will give him work to do?
1318Who will lend him a helping hand in his struggle to regain a foothold in the outside world?
1318Why are they so docile?
1318Why is it they do not make a rush for liberty whenever an opportunity presents itself?
1318Why was it that I was the only one sent to the penitentiary when there was the secretary, treasurer, and six directors equally as guilty as myself?
1318Why was this?
1318Will you do this for me?
1318Would it not be better to give these boys a term in the county jails, or in some reformatory, instead of sending them to a penitentiary?
1318You would decline his services, and who could blame you?
1318Young man, as you read the history of this convict, can you not persuade yourself to let whisky and cards alone for the future?
1318Young man, as you read this, had you not better make up your mind to go rather slow in pouring whisky down your throat in future?
1318and who am I, anyway?"
1318did you ever behold such a sight?
1318is such a human being entitled to the endearing term?)
7106Ai n''t them old crippled picks and things in there good enough to dig a nigger out with?
7106But it''s SOMEBODY''S plates, ai n''t it?
7106DO with it? 7106 Did n''t I SAY I was going to help steal the nigger?"
7106Did you ever see us before?
7106For what?
7106How can he blow? 7106 How long will it take, Tom?"
7106How''d you get your breakfast so early on the boat?
7106I do n''t reckon he does; but what put that into your head?
7106Not a word?
7106SOLD him?
7106To dig the foundations out from under that cabin with?
7106Tools for what?
7106Tools?
7106WORK? 7106 Well, spos''n it is?
7106Well, then, what''ll we make him the ink out of?
7106Well, then, what''s the sense in wasting the plates?
7106Well, then,I says,"how''ll it do to saw him out, the way I done before I was murdered that time?"
7106Well, then,I says,"if we do n''t want the picks and shovels, what do we want?"
7106What PUT it dar? 7106 What did you think the vittles was for?"
7106What do we WANT of a saw? 7106 What do we want of a saw?"
7106What do we want of a shirt, Tom?
7106What in the nation can he DO with it?
7106What made you think I''d like it?
7106What''s THAT got to do with it? 7106 Whereabouts?"
7106Who do you reckon''t is?
7106Who''d you give the baggage to?
7106Why?
7106You wo n''t, wo n''t you? 7106 You''re s''rp-- Why, what do you reckon I am?
7106And I DID start to tell him; but he shut me up, and says:"Do n''t you reckon I know what I''m about?
7106And s''pose he steps in here any minute, and sings out my name before I can throw him a wink to keep quiet?
7106And turns to me, perfectly ca''m, and says,"Did YOU hear anybody sing out?"
7106And what would you want to saw his leg off for, anyway?"
7106And you would n''t leave them any?
7106But at supper, at night, one of the little boys says:"Pa, may n''t Tom and Sid and me go to the show?"
7106Didn''he jis''dis minute sing out like he knowed you?"
7106Do n''t I generly know what I''m about?"
7106Does you want to go en look at''i m?"
7106Going to feed the dogs?"
7106Hain''t he run off?"
7106Hain''t we got to saw the leg of Jim''s bed off, so as to get the chain loose?"
7106He can hide it in his bed, ca n''t he?"
7106Honest injun, you ai n''t a ghost?"
7106I hunched Tom, and whispers:"You going, right here in the daybreak?
7106I says:"What do we want of a moat when we''re going to snake him out from under the cabin?"
7106I wonder who''tis?
7106I''ve a good notion to take and-- Say, what do you mean by kissing me?"
7106It was all she could do to hold in; and her eyes snapped, and her fingers worked like she wanted to scratch him; and she says:"Who''s''everybody''?
7106Just keep a tight tongue in your head and move right along, and then you wo n''t get into trouble with US, d''ye hear?"
7106Look yonder!--up the road!--ain''t that somebody coming?"
7106Looky here, warn''t you ever murdered AT ALL?"
7106Looky here-- do you think YOU''D venture to blow on us?
7106Mrs. Phelps she jumps for him, and says:"Has he come?"
7106Now I want to ask you-- if you got any reasonableness in you at all-- what kind of a show would THAT give him to be a hero?
7106Pretty soon Tom says:"Ready?"
7106S''pose he DON''T do nothing with it?
7106Say, gimme a chaw tobacker, wo n''t ye?"
7106She was smiling all over so she could hardly stand-- and says:"It''s YOU, at last!--AIN''T it?"
7106So Tom says:"What''s the vittles for?
7106So Tom turns to the nigger, which was looking wild and distressed, and says, kind of severe:"What do you reckon''s the matter with you, anyway?
7106So she run on:"Lize, hurry up and get him a hot breakfast right away-- or did you get your breakfast on the boat?"
7106So, then, what you want to come back and ha''nt ME for?"
7106The next minute he whirls on me and says:"Do you reckon that nigger would blow on us?
7106The old gentleman stared, and says:"Why, who''s that?"
7106Then I says to myself, s''pose Tom Sawyer comes down on that boat?
7106Then he did n''t look so joyful, and says:"What was your idea for asking ME?"
7106Then he says, kind of glad and eager,"Where''s the raft?--got her in a good place?"
7106Then he turns to Jim, and looks him over like he never see him before, and says:"Did you sing out?"
7106Tom he looked at the nigger, steady and kind of wondering, and says:"Does WHO know us?"
7106WHAT did he sing out?"
7106WHEN did he sing out?
7106WHO sung out?
7106Was you looking for him?"
7106We ai n''t a- going to GNAW him out, are we?"
7106What kep''you?--boat get aground?"
7106What made you think somebody sung out?"
7106What''s the good of a plan that ai n''t no more trouble than that?
7106When we was at dinner, did n''t you see a nigger man go in there with some vittles?"
7106Where''d YOU come from?"
7106Where''d she get aground?"
7106Where''s that ten cents?
7106Where?"
7106Who IS it?"
7106Who ever heard of a state prisoner escaping by a hickry- bark ladder?
7106Who ever heard of getting a prisoner loose in such an old- maidy way as that?
7106Who nailed him?"
7106Who''s THEY?"
7106Whoever would a thought it was in that mare to do it?
7106Why ca n''t you stick to the main point?"
7106Why would n''t they?
7106Why, hain''t you ever read any books at all?--Baron Trenck, nor Casanova, nor Benvenuto Chelleeny, nor Henri IV., nor none of them heroes?
7106Will you?"
7106Would n''t that plan work?"
7106You do n''t reckon it''s going to take thirty- seven years to dig out through a DIRT foundation, do you?"
7106You''ll say it''s dirty, low- down business; but what if it is?
7106ai n''t it there in his bed, for a clew, after he''s gone?
7106ain''dat Misto Tom?"
7106and do n''t you reckon they''ll want clews?
7106anybody hurt?"
7106do he know you genlmen?"
7106she says,"what in the warld can have become of him?"
7102AIN''dat gay? 7102 And ai n''t it natural and right for a cat and a cow to talk different from US?"
7102Could n''t they see better if they was to wait till daytime?
7102Dad fetch it, how is I gwyne to dream all dat in ten minutes?
7102Does a cat talk like a cow, or a cow talk like a cat?
7102Drinkin''? 7102 Get?"
7102Gone away? 7102 Goodness gracious, is dat you, Huck?
7102Goshen, child? 7102 HOW?
7102How does I talk wild?
7102I is, is I? 7102 If fifteen cows is browsing on a hillside, how many of them eats with their heads pointed the same direction?"
7102Is a cat a man, Huck?
7102It''s natural and right for''em to talk different from each other, ai n''t it?
7102Looky here, Jim; does a cat talk like we do?
7102No-- is that so?
7102No; is dat so?
7102Oh, that''s the way of it?
7102Oh, well, that''s all interpreted well enough as far as it goes, Jim,I says;"but what does THESE things stand for?"
7102Roun''de which?
7102Say, wo n''t he suspicion what we''re up to?
7102They''re-- they''re-- are you the watchman of the boat?
7102Well, den, why could n''t he SAY it?
7102Well, does a cow?
7102Well, then, a horse?
7102Well, then, what makes you talk so wild?
7102Well, then, why ai n''t it natural and right for a FRENCHMAN to talk different from us? 7102 Well, we can wait the two hours anyway and see, ca n''t we?"
7102Wh-- what, mum?
7102What fog?
7102What wreck?
7102What''s de harem?
7102What''s the matter with you, Jim? 7102 What''s your real name?
7102What, you do n''t mean the Walter Scott?
7102Where''bouts do you live? 7102 Which side of a tree does the moss grow on?"
7102Who? 7102 Why, Huck, doan''de French people talk de same way we does?"
7102Why, are they after him yet?
7102Why, pap and mam and sis and Miss Hooker; and if you''d take your ferryboat and go up there--"Up where? 7102 You hain''t seen no towhead?
7102--wouldn''t he spread himself, nor nothing?
7102Ai n''t I right?"
7102Ai n''t that so?"
7102And THEN what did you all do?"
7102And could n''t the nigger see better, too?
7102And what FOR?
7102And would n''t he throw style into it?
7102Bekase why: would a wise man want to live in de mids''er sich a blim- blammin''all de time?
7102But Bill says:"Hold on--''d you go through him?"
7102But he''ll be pooty lonesome-- dey ain''no kings here, is dey, Huck?"
7102But how you goin''to manage it this time?"
7102But now she says:"Honey, I thought you said it was Sarah when you first come in?"
7102But other times they just lazy around; or go hawking-- just hawking and sp-- Sh!--d''you hear a noise?"
7102But s''pose she DON''T break up and wash off?"
7102But when he did get the thing straightened around he looked at me steady without ever smiling, and says:"What do dey stan''for?
7102Dad blame it, why doan''he TALK like a man?
7102Did n''t you?"
7102Do n''t anybody live there?
7102Do n''t you know about the harem?
7102Do you know him?"
7102Do you reckon Tom Sawyer would ever go by this thing?
7102Does three hundred dollars lay around every day for people to pick up?
7102Does you know''bout dat chile dat he''uz gwyne to chop in two?"
7102En did n''t I bust up agin a lot er dem islands en have a turrible time en mos''git drownded?
7102En what dey got to do, Huck?"
7102En what use is a half a chile?
7102En you ain''dead-- you ain''drownded-- you''s back agin?
7102HAIN''T you ben gone away?"
7102Has I ben a- drinkin''?
7102Has I had a chance to be a- drinkin''?"
7102Has everybody quit thinking the nigger done it?"
7102He stirred up in a kind of a startlish way; but when he see it was only me he took a good gap and stretch, and then he says:"Hello, what''s up?
7102How do dat come?"
7102How much do a king git?"
7102I says to myself, there ai n''t no telling but I might come to be a murderer myself yet, and then how would I like it?
7102I says:"Who done it?
7102I''m for killin''him-- and did n''t he kill old Hatfield jist the same way-- and do n''t he deserve it?"
7102In this neighborhood?''
7102Is I ME, or who IS I?
7102Is I heah, or whah IS I?
7102Is a Frenchman a man?"
7102Is a cow a man?--er is a cow a cat?"
7102Is it Bill, or Tom, or Bob?--or what is it?"
7102Is your husband going over there to- night?"
7102It''s only saying, do you know how to talk French?"
7102Looky here, did n''t de line pull loose en de raf''go a- hummin''down de river, en leave you en de canoe behine in de fog?"
7102Me?
7102Now ain''dat so, boss-- ain''t it so?
7102Now if you''ll go and--""By Jackson, I''d LIKE to, and, blame it, I do n''t know but I will; but who in the dingnation''s a- going''to PAY for it?
7102Pretty soon she says""What did you say your name was, honey?"
7102RAF''?
7102S''pose a man was to come to you and say Polly- voo- franzy-- what would you think?"
7102Says I--"I broke in and says:"They''re in an awful peck of trouble, and--""WHO is?"
7102See?
7102She looked me all over with her little shiny eyes, and says:"What might your name be?"
7102So she put me up a snack, and says:"Say, when a cow''s laying down, which end of her gets up first?
7102Then she took off the hank and looked me straight in the face, and very pleasant, and says:"Come, now, what''s your real name?"
7102Warn''dat de beatenes''notion in de worl''?
7102Well, then, I said, why could n''t she tell her husband to fetch a dog?
7102Well, you answer me dis: Did n''t you tote out de line in de canoe fer to make fas''to de tow- head?"
7102What does I do?
7102What he gwyne to do?"
7102What tow- head?
7102What''s the matter with''em?"
7102What''s the trouble?"
7102What''s your real name, now?"
7102Where are they?"
7102Where would I go to?"
7102Which end gets up first?"
7102Who told you this was Goshen?"
7102Why did n''t you stir me up?"
7102Why, hain''t you been talking about my coming back, and all that stuff, as if I''d been gone away?"
7102Why, how in the nation did they ever git into such a scrape?"
7102Why, what in the nation do you mean?
7102You been a- drinking?"
7102You take a man dat''s got on''y one or two chillen; is dat man gwyne to be waseful o''chillen?
7102is HE her uncle?
7102what are they doin''THERE, for gracious sakes?"
7105But I reckon we ought to tell Uncle Harvey she''s gone out a while, anyway, so he wo n''t be uneasy about her?
7105But I thought YOU lived in Sheffield?
7105But what time o''day?
7105Come, ai n''t that what you saw?
7105Do n''t mind what I said-- please don''t-- you WON''T, now, WILL you?
7105Do n''t they give''em holidays, the way we do, Christmas and New Year''s week, and Fourth of July?
7105HOW''D you come?
7105His''n? 7105 How does he get it, then?"
7105How''s it a new kind?
7105I do n''t know; leastways, I kinder forget; but I thinks it''s--"Sakes alive, I hope it ai n''t HANNER?
7105I thought he lived in London?
7105Is it KETCHING? 7105 Looky here,"I says;"did you ever see any Congress- water?"
7105None of it at all?
7105Nor church?
7105They do n''t, do n''t they? 7105 WHOSE pew?"
7105Was you in there yisterday er last night?
7105Well, did you have to go to Congress to get it?
7105Well, then, how''d you come to be up at the Pint in the MORNIN''--in a canoe?
7105Well, then, how''s he going to take the sea baths if it ai n''t on the sea?
7105Well, then, what are they FOR?
7105Well, then, what does the rest of''em do?
7105Well, what DID you say, then?
7105Well, what in the nation do they call it the MUMPS for?
7105Well, who said it was?
7105Well, why would n''t you?
7105What did you reckon I wanted you to go at all for, Miss Mary?
7105What is it you wo n''t believe, Joe?
7105What is it, duke?
7105What other things?
7105What!--to preach before a king? 7105 Where do you set?"
7105Where is it, then?
7105Which one?
7105Who? 7105 Why, what do they want with more?"
7105Why, who''s got it?
7105Why?
7105--so as to get them to let Miss Mary Jane go aboard?
7105And ai n''t that a big enough majority in any town?"
7105And do you reckon they''d be mean enough to go off and leave you to go all that journey by yourselves?
7105And leave my sisters with them?"
7105And not sell out the rest o''the property?
7105And they call it the MUMPS?"
7105And when the king got done this husky up and says:"Say, looky here; if you are Harvey Wilks, when''d you come to this town?"
7105And you ca n''t get away with that tooth without fetching the whole harrow along, can you?
7105But answer me only jest this one more-- now DON''T git mad; did n''t you have it in your mind to hook the money and hide it?"
7105Ca n''t you SEE that THEY''D go and tell?
7105Did you inquire around for HIM when you got loose?
7105Do n''t you know nothing?"
7105Do n''t you reckon I know who hid that money in that coffin?"
7105Do they treat''em better''n we treat our niggers?"
7105Do you reckon that''ll do?"
7105Hain''t we got all the fools in town on our side?
7105Hain''t your uncles obleegd to get along home to England as fast as they can?
7105How fur is it?"
7105How is servants treated in England?
7105How would you like to be treated so?"
7105How''d they act?"
7105I live up there, do n''t I?
7105I reckon he can stand a little thing like that, ca n''t he?"
7105I says to myself, shall I go to that doctor, private, and blow on these frauds?
7105If the profits has turned out to be none, lackin''considable, and none to carry, is it my fault any more''n it''s yourn?"
7105If they have, wo n''t the complices get away with that bag of gold Peter Wilks left?
7105If you do n''t hitch on to one tooth, you''re bound to on another, ai n''t you?
7105Is a HARROW catching-- in the dark?
7105Is it ketching?"
7105Is she took bad?"
7105Is there anybody here that helped to lay out my br-- helped to lay out the late Peter Wilks for burying?"
7105Long as you''re in this town do n''t you forgit THAT-- you hear?"
7105NOW what do you say-- hey?"
7105Next, she says:"Do you go to church, too?"
7105S''pose she dug him up and did n''t find nothing, what would she think of me?
7105Say, where IS that song-- that draft?"
7105Says I, kind of timid- like:"Is something gone wrong?"
7105Shall I go, private, and tell Mary Jane?
7105She says:"Did you ever see the king?"
7105She says:"Honest injun, now, hain''t you been telling me a lot of lies?"
7105So when I says he goes to our church, she says:"What-- regular?"
7105So, says I, s''pose somebody has hogged that bag on the sly?--now how do I know whether to write to Mary Jane or not?
7105The doctor he up and says:"Would you know the boy again if you was to see him, Hines?"
7105The duke bristles up now, and says:"Oh, let UP on this cussed nonsense; do you take me for a blame''fool?
7105The duke says, pretty brisk:"When it comes to that, maybe you''ll let me ask, what was YOU referring to?"
7105The duke says:"Have you seen anybody else go in there?"
7105The king kind of ruffles up, and says:"Looky here, Bilgewater, what''r you referrin''to?"
7105The king says:"Was you in my room night before last?"
7105The king says:"Why?"
7105Then I says:"Blame it, do you suppose there ai n''t but one preacher to a church?"
7105Then I says:"Miss Mary Jane, is there any place out of town a little ways where you could go and stay three or four days?"
7105Then the doctor whirls on me and says:"Are YOU English, too?"
7105Then the duke says:"What, all of them?"
7105Then the old man turns towards the king, and says:"Perhaps this gentleman can tell me what was tattooed on his breast?"
7105They sets down then, and the king says:"Well, what is it?
7105Tired of our company, hey?"
7105Very well, then; is a PREACHER going to deceive a steamboat clerk?
7105Was there any such mark on Peter Wilks''breast?"
7105Well, did he?
7105Well, we got to save HIM, hain''t we?
7105Well, what do you think?
7105What WILL he do, then?
7105What did they do?
7105What did you RECKON he wanted with it?"
7105What do we k''yer for HIM?
7105What does HE want with a pew?"
7105What was it?"
7105What''s the matter with her?"
7105When I struck Susan and the hare- lip, I says:"What''s the name of them people over on t''other side of the river that you all goes to see sometimes?"
7105When was that?"
7105Where WOULD he live?"
7105Where WOULD it be?"
7105Where did you hide it?"
7105Why?"
7105William Fourth?
7105Would YOU a done any different?
7105Would ther''be any sense in that?
7105Your uncle Harvey''s a preacher, ai n''t he?
7105and"Where, for the land''s sake, DID you get these amaz''n pickles?"
7105is he going to deceive a SHIP CLERK?
33048After that, what more?
33048And after that?
33048And she-- that awful woman?
33048And then where''ll I be? 33048 And what about Kelly?"
33048And what, pray, did you whittle to take their place?
33048And you?
33048Are you going to board yourself out of what I am able to pay you?
33048Bill drunk?
33048Bill, can you do it?
33048Bill, do n''t you think you could write it out and relieve the pressure on your heart, without endangering our prestige?
33048Bill,said Jap slowly,"do you want to come with me, or do you want me to stay here with you till you''ve had a bath and a good sleep?"
33048Billy who? 33048 But how''d I know you''d ketch it from the eatin''s?"
33048Ca n''t either of you reason? 33048 Ca- can I have just what I want?"
33048Cabbage worm?
33048Can you shed any light on that undiscovered country?
33048Cussed it?
33048Decently?
33048Did Ellis ever have a fight-- that kind of a fight-- with anybody?
33048Did Ellis owe you a bill? 33048 Did n''t Loghman owe for his ad?"
33048Did you ask him for it?
33048Did you attend that meeting at the Baptist Church?
33048Did you like''em-- when you got them?
33048Do n''t happen to need any basses, do you?
33048Do you know any of their addresses?
33048Do you think it would do any good to go gunning for Jones?
33048Do you unwind all at once?
33048Gee, Jap,said Bill uneasily,"are you sick?"
33048Get out all the roosters?
33048Going gunning for Jones?
33048Going to beat him up?
33048Has my sister thought of anything else she absolutely needs? 33048 Have n''t you got any sense?"
33048Have you taken Bill into your confidence, Sis?
33048Have you washed that type yet, Bill?
33048How did I come to pick this place?
33048How did you ever pick out this town?
33048How did you get next to it?
33048How do you get from one place to another, Mark?
33048How many roosters have we?
33048How much did he send in for the color?
33048How''s that for a head?
33048I ca n''t know what is in the boy''s mind, can I? 33048 I do n''t want to be ungrateful for your kindness, but will you leave Bill and me alone to get out our first edition?"
33048In trouble, Wat?
33048Is Bill in the office?
33048Is he gone?
33048Is it a dark secret?
33048Is it true, Ellis? 33048 Is my boy with his father?"
33048Is my life always to hold grief?
33048Is she-- is she seriously sick?
33048It looked like a beefsteak, did n''t it, boy? 33048 It would sound good for the_ Herald_ to mention that you are in line?"
33048Jap, have you that mortgage handy-- all that business that Mabelle gave you?
33048Jap,he said as he walked toward the door of the composing room,"that skunk of a Jones----""Who?
33048Jap,she gasped painfully,"is this the thing called Death, this uplift of joy?"
33048Just who is Bronson Jones?
33048Kelly,asked Jap abruptly,"why did they call this patch of dust''Bloomtown''?
33048Look here, Bill, are we going to let the chatter of women come between us? 33048 Looking out again, Bill?"
33048Lord love you,cried Jap,"what could any sane being call it?
33048Love o''gracious,Ellis exclaimed,"what is the shade?"
33048Meaning that?
33048My fault?
33048Never was no such animal?
33048News? 33048 No bread?"
33048Not alone?
33048Not going?
33048Now, Bill Bowers, just what do you mean?
33048Oh, Bill, what has Jap said?
33048Papa,she called resolutely,"you coming with us?"
33048Railroad? 33048 Reckon I''d better ask Flossy to fix my things-- get my clothes out?"
33048Reckon you want to ask what everybody else wants to know-- when is Jap going to get a saloon?
33048Say, Mister,he asked confidently,"do you do that every day?"
33048Stopped it, did n''t we?
33048Thanky, Jasper,she mumbled,"You be- ant mad?"
33048That bad, Bill?
33048Want to take her, Jap?
33048Was that pi?
33048Well, what of it?
33048Well, what''s hampering him?
33048Well,he queried quizzically,"what about it?"
33048Well?
33048What are you going to do, Ellis?
33048What are you going to do, Jap?
33048What can we say about him?
33048What could Ellis do?
33048What could I do, Flossy? 33048 What did he say?"
33048What did you do?
33048What did you want with me and Roberts?
33048What do you want to know, Iz?
33048What do you want to tell me about it for?
33048What do you want with him?
33048What girl wants to have her sweetheart only half hers? 33048 What is that greasy smirk for?"
33048What is there about James? 33048 What is this?"
33048What is your defense?
33048What kind of a streak?
33048What was the fuss about?
33048What was the racket about?
33048What''s the matter with you, anyway? 33048 What''s the row, Jap?"
33048What''s the use of a railroad now?
33048What''s the use?
33048Where in Heck did you filch that doggerel?
33048Where is Ellis?
33048Where is she?
33048Where is that sister of mine? 33048 Where is your husband?"
33048Where will you get the saloon that''ll pay that?
33048Who done this?
33048Who got him into it? 33048 Who said He did n''t?"
33048Who said it was doggerel?
33048Who said so?
33048Who said that Jap Herron was not more than the equal of any man on earth?
33048Who said they was going to quit?
33048Who will stop me? 33048 Who wrote this?"
33048Who?
33048Why ai n''t there?
33048Why did n''t we know that J. W. was worse?
33048Why do it then?
33048Why do n''t he confide in me?
33048Why the shiner?
33048Why, William,expostulated his father,"you shorely ai n''t goin''to have Jap and his mammy hitched up to the_ Herald_?
33048Why?
33048Why?
33048Why?
33048Will you explain where the colons and semicolons have emigrated to?
33048Will you let me go to Barton instead of you?
33048Would you mind sitting down and keeping quiet till I finish setting up this address to the bag of wind that edits the Barton_ Standard_?
33048You are sure that you have every advice?
33048You did n''t put on a grave face with Ellis, did you? 33048 You hear me?"
33048You will believe me, boy?
33048''Do you think that I am agoin''to have a lot of blue- bellied Yankees in my very dooryard?''
33048A circus for horse- play?"
33048After a muffled silence he said, his eyes growing suddenly bright:"Bill, did you notice what Flossy said?
33048And did you hear the crowd say it after me?"
33048And what do you suppose will be her counsel?
33048And why Jasper?
33048Are you sick?
33048As Jap walked rapidly down the alley beside the night marshal, he asked:"Did you try to talk to him?"
33048But, little Mother, what is left to me if you go?
33048By way of reply, he gave this:"Did you ever know about my prize joke?
33048CHAPTER XIII"Now that you''ve got it, Jap,"asked Tom Granger,"what are you going to do with it?"
33048Can I buy them?"
33048Can I have knee pants?"
33048Can you imagine it, Jappie?"
33048Could you take her in?
33048Dare any of you claim that she had not all of these?
33048Did Ellis Hinton sleep?
33048Did they ever have even peppergrass growin''along its edges?"
33048Did you ever hear of any one soling a yearling calf?
33048Did you get my letter, sayin''to stop the paper?"
33048Do n''t you know who Billy Wamkiss is?"
33048Do you think Ellis and Flossy would get any joy out of strumming on a harp and taking their own selfish ease?
33048Do you think that you are going to leave my office to lick the boots of that loafing gang of pie- biters?
33048Do you want to hang, because you were a damned fool?
33048Had it come to this?
33048Have things gone wrong?"
33048Have you forgotten the insolent, flippant letter she wrote you?"
33048How come your feet in our dust again?"
33048How dared any one cheer or laugh, when Flossy lay dying?
33048How did you get on to it?"
33048However did they get''Bloomtown''hitched on to this patch of dirt?
33048I asked:"Mark, are you going to give a sequel to''Jap Herron''?"
33048I said:"Mark, did you ever send anybody to call on Lola?"
33048Is he asleep, Tim?"
33048Is n''t that fair enough, Bill?
33048It was a murky November afternoon, and I asked,"Do you feel the dampness of the material atmosphere?"
33048Jap and Bill got up, shamefacedly, as he demanded:"What do you think I am conducting this plant for?
33048Kelly, what brings you to our door in the glooming?"
33048Kelly?"
33048Maybe you will be pleased?
33048Must Death forever draw its grim fingers between him and his happiness?
33048Oh, Jap, do you think that smile was for me, too?"
33048Poking absently among the dusty types, he said, with profound solemnity:"Bill, did you ever want anything right bad?"
33048Tell me, who profits?
33048The doctor has just told me that these queer spells and moods that Rosalie has been having lately mean-- Jap, do you understand?
33048Then Bloomtown pressed her hands to her throbbing breast and got ready for-- Victory?
33048Then Jap said huskily:"Do you remember what Ellis said, that day when his greatest joy came?"
33048Then he nominated Tom Granger for mayor, and what do you reckon they did?"
33048There was a long pause, and then:"Well, why do n''t some of you say something?"
33048Was it"Jappie,"or a combination of Jap and Bill?
33048We assumed that he had something further to say to us, and when I asked him what he wanted to talk about, he gave this tantalizing reply:"Curious?
33048What am I going to do about it, my intelligent co- printer?"
33048What becomes of his plea for municipal revenue when he turns saloons into drug stores?"
33048What can we do with him but hang him?"
33048What did you get for publishing it-- advertising rates?"
33048What do you want me to do, kidnap him and get his consent?
33048What do you want most?"
33048What is religion?
33048What is revenge upon a dead body, especially if you expiate that revenge on the gallows?
33048What judge was he?
33048What right had he to burden Flossy with fresh anxiety?
33048What would Flossy want you to do?"
33048What''d you do it for?"
33048Where have you been hibernating?
33048Where is she hiding?"
33048Who else builds on Main street?"
33048Why did n''t they put the James first?
33048Will you do it, Jap?"
33048Wo n''t you speak?"
33048You remember the day that Ellis told you the truth about himself?"
33048You wo n''t let it hurt you?
33048cried Wat,"what can I do?"
33048exploded Bill,"What do you want to talk about it for, then?"
23391''I by my love for Salome''--are you sure, Piney?
23391A dead-- oh, God bless you-- wait-- Sally, did that move? 23391 And I have to go?"
23391And I''m so big--''reckon''that''s why you love me so, huh?
23391And you may go?
23391And you will go, I suppose?
23391And you wo n''t tell me why, Daddy?
23391Anybody coming?
23391Are n''t they pretty splendid?
23391Are n''t they tremendous?
23391Are you betting on the magnolia tree with anybody this winter?
23391Are you going on into Canaan to- night, or shall you sleep here with me? 23391 Are you going to do what I want, Honey?"
23391Are you going?
23391Better than anybody?
23391But wait a minute, did n''t you buy this land? 23391 But you come back to Canaan?"
23391But, Piney, boy, where''s the trouble in that? 23391 Ca n''t you come with us for the rest of the week, son?"
23391Can you hold on a minute alone, sir?
23391Can you tell me how far it is to Poetical?
23391D''you know the Steerin''s air sendin''that tramp- scamp to Italy?
23391Daddy,she said, by and by,"do you know that I swam the Di once?"
23391Did Unc''Bernique say when d he''s comin''back to Canaan?
23391Do n''t you ever come to Canaan?
23391Do n''t you ever try water for it?
23391Do n''t you like him any more?
23391Do they stop talking to you, the hills and the woods and the quiet?
23391Do you feel it, Chloe? 23391 Do you feel like doing something for me?"
23391Do you live in Canaan?
23391Do you, Pet? 23391 Eh, God?"
23391Eh, what?
23391Eh? 23391 Go on to what?"
23391God bless my soul, Throcker, how much did the last blast bring down?
23391Goin''to be long over to Poetical, Mist''Steerin''?
23391Hard to keep up with, eh? 23391 Have we heard what, for goodness''sake?"
23391Have you heard the news?
23391Hi, Pet, you there?
23391How do you like my garden?
23391How far from Poetical, Piney?
23391Howdy, Miz Dade, haow you come on?
23391Huccome you to come, Asa?
23391I do n''t quite follow? 23391 I wonder if I could do it now-- I was pretty awful as a youngster, was n''t I, Daddy?"
23391I wonder if you remember the ride across country into the sunset?
23391I wonder why I should try to do something poorly that someone else can do so well?
23391If I paint all my life am I ever going to be able to paint like that?
23391If he_ were_ mine, you know what I should do with him?
23391Is he kin to you?
23391Is it your own trouble, Piney?
23391Is n''t he well?
23391Just stop where I am? 23391 Last September?
23391Look here, learning anything when you are out with that man Steering?
23391Miss Honey- love?
23391My, but you have become attached to Redbud, have n''t you? 23391 News of what, Sally?"
23391Not thinking of going to Italy yet, Piney?
23391Now God above, why not Crit Madeira tell you that tr- r- ue way of things?
23391Now where the dickens did he get the encouragement?
23391Now, Piney, lad,began Miss Madeira at once,"what''s the trouble?"
23391Oh, you goin''on to Canaan?
23391Oh, you?
23391Oh- ho,said the girl, who also heard,"we are taking you for granted, are n''t we?"
23391Piney? 23391 Pretty good for a lazy semi- southern State, eh, Steering?"
23391Sally,began Madeira again,"I''ve never asked very much of you, have I?
23391Sally?
23391Say, ca n''t I get through from the garden here, and go down the river road?
23391Say, it''s goin''to be kinder tough on you to stay here to- night, ai nt it? 23391 Simlike, ef a man onst finds the right woman they ought n''t never to be no more right women, hmh?"
23391Sit down,she said,"and tell me why poor Piney?"
23391Six sights-- six sights and a right what_ what_?
23391Smells real good, do n''t it?
23391Something? 23391 Sometimes the thing to do is just to stand steady,"she said,"is n''t that it?"
23391Sorry? 23391 Studied what?"
23391Taken a foolish old dislike to him, have n''t you, Dad?
23391Tell me quickly, dearie,she said,"is he ill?"
23391That tha''Mist''Steerin''ai nt ben come no mo''fuh gre''t while, air he?
23391Then wait just as long as you can, will you?
23391This is pretty luxurious, is n''t it? 23391 Want to get rid of me, huh?"
23391Want to go to the_ ho_tel, do n''t you?
23391We are to be all together on that deal, are n''t we?
23391We do have to humour his poor appetite, do n''t we, Chloe? 23391 We like Uncle Bernique, do n''t we, Piney?"
23391Well then, ca n''t we start, too?
23391Well then, my boy, you just stop by the bank, when you get in from the hills, will you? 23391 Well, Dad?"
23391Well, Piney, son, got Texas fever?
23391Well, Throcker, my boy, my ledge of Cherokee runs up here from the Canaan Tigmores, d''you know that?
23391Well, a fellow ca n''t go on like this forever, can he? 23391 Well, but they gen''ly is, hmh?"
23391Well, now,he said, playing with the little joy of being understood,"have n''t they the court- house at Canaan?
23391Well, why do n''t you go on and say what?
23391Well, you did it, did n''t you? 23391 Well,"--she was troubled,--"in the meantime, what is old Grierson going to do?"
23391Well,said Steering happily,"all this is going to make us acquainted, is n''t it?"
23391Well?
23391Were your people Italians, Piney?
23391What do you hear from Elsie?
23391What do you mean by that?
23391What have you done all winter?
23391What''s in life for you?
23391What''s that the tramp- boy''s sayin''naow?
23391What''s the bother, Dad?
23391What, for instance?
23391What? 23391 When did you make the find, Uncle Bernique?"
23391When did you see him?
23391Where are you? 23391 Where did the path lead you?"
23391Where have you been for so long, you stingy nigger? 23391 Where have you been this time?
23391Where have you been, young man?
23391Where''s Uncle Bernique?
23391Where''s that?
23391Whose trouble, Piney?
23391Whut madder wid he, Miss Sally, innyhow, Honey?
23391Whut wuz it, Mist''Steerin''?
23391Why did n''t I ever meet you at Miss Gossamer''s?
23391Why do n''t you eat your breakfast, Daddy?
23391Why do n''t you?
23391Why not? 23391 Why not?"
23391Why, how does that happen, Piney? 23391 Wo n''t she do the most good with it?
23391Would that be so terrible?
23391Wuz Unc''Bernique cross because I did n''t go rat back like I said I''d do?
23391Y''aint f''m this part of the kentry, air you?
23391Yes, but you do n''t expect me to let him hold me up by the collar forever, do you, Pet? 23391 Yes, friend,"Steering had called back, and had then projected his unfailing, anxious question:"Can you tell me how far it is to Poetical?"
23391Yes, he''s always been in love with her, I think.--Do you like the East?
23391Yes, it would be terrible to love hopelessly, would n''t it?
23391You have n''t gone to Europe?
23391You see? 23391 _ What!_ And leave Uncle Bernique?"
23391--I have a notion that that may mean something or other, Piney?"
23391Ah, you see?"
23391Ai nt that right, Salver?"
23391All he could say was,"So you are Miss Sally?"
23391All what?"
23391Always let you do as you please, have n''t I?
23391And it''s too late now to try to force you to do anything, is n''t it?
23391And now what''s kept you so long on the road?
23391And the railroad?
23391And you can now, and you will, Father?"
23391Answer me that now?
23391As soon as her father saw her and heard her, he said:"Well, Honey- love, are you as happy as_ that_?"
23391Bernique?"
23391Bernique?"
23391Bernique?"
23391Bernique?"
23391Bernique?"
23391Bruce, m''son?
23391But sair, what will you of this particulaire portion?
23391But where would our victory leave him, Uncle Bernique?
23391Ca n''t you let it go at that, and help me out?"
23391Can he come on in?
23391Cand I have a drink, please''m, Miss Sally?"
23391Carington?"
23391Cayn''t you lif''your han''?"
23391Coming in with us, I reckon?"
23391D''you know that?
23391D''you see it?
23391D''you think Italy''s a- goin''to beat this, Miss Sally?"
23391Did n''t you put some money in it?"
23391Did you know that?
23391Do n''t want ever to see him again,--and say, Pet?"
23391Do n''t you believe me?"
23391Do n''t you see that I have this thing here under my thumb?
23391Do n''t you see that you must n''t go against me, my boy?
23391Do n''t you see that?
23391Do you like me?"
23391Elsie and Carington seem to be hitting it off well, too, do n''t they?"
23391Ever been there?"
23391Fine, is n''t it?
23391God love you, why do you want trouble between you and me?
23391Going to get in home early, are n''t you, Sally?"
23391Going to ride part of the way with me?
23391Had Madeira changed about?
23391Had Piney made a vast mistake?
23391Had the thing become with Madeira, during these more recent days, something larger, something legitimate?
23391Has Steering possession of the Canaan Tigmores?
23391Has he carried out my instructions?
23391Has he fulfilled his trust?
23391Has n''t it been lonely for you here?"
23391He admitted that he was not as careful of the skillet as he should be, and she went back to her first anxiety,"Why do you stay here when you are ill?"
23391He''ll go against me, will he?
23391Hein?
23391How are your shoulders?"
23391How did you happen along?"
23391How in the Sam Hill have you taken so long to get here?
23391How would that suit you?
23391How''d you manage to put in a whole week between here and Springfield?"
23391Huh?
23391I had n''t really hoped to see you again before----""Before what?"
23391In its way, though it is down here on the Di, it''s just about as good for a country house as the places you saw on the Hudson, ai nt it?"
23391Is it that you inquire to Poetical?
23391Is n''t it foolish?
23391Is n''t that a pretty nice name?
23391Is that you by the bar?
23391It knows its field, it knows its chances, it knows its future''--and so on, and so on-- how do you think it goes, boys?"
23391It was a lovely winter, was n''t it?"
23391Just stop where you are, will you?"
23391Know Sally, son?"
23391Madeira was turning from the man on the curb:"All right, I''ll allot you one thousand shares, eh?
23391Madeira?"
23391Miss Sally, who else gwine eat dishyer cake tumorreh, Honey?"
23391Mr. Carington was in love with her, was n''t he?"
23391Mr. Grierson died last September and has written letters since he died, you are getting it all mixed, are n''t you?"
23391Or, after all, was he, Steering, wrong about that?
23391Question now is,_ is_ there any ore in the Canaan Tigmores?"
23391Say, do you know air the Steerin''s to be long gone?"
23391She was in rich in gold and land and cattle, in ore, too now; and he?
23391Should he ever forget it?
23391Should n''t you think that was the way to work it out?"
23391Some pioneer poet named it for its shimmer, but what good did it do?
23391Steering is not exactly an outsider, is he?"
23391Steering say and do, Piney?"
23391Steering this fantastic tale?"
23391Steering,--isn''t it?"
23391That you, Uncle Bernique?
23391That''s something of a title, too, is n''t it?
23391Then Carington''s voice saying,"Bruce?
23391There is nothing that I can do for you?"
23391They head in to the relroad f''m here,--you know you ai nt a- goin''to ketch the relroad at Poetical?"
23391WHO''S GOT THE TIGMORES?
23391Was it to be failure, after all?
23391Well, Placide, has Madeira done that?
23391What about those shares?
23391What about to- night, young man?
23391What dead man?
23391What he said to her was"How- do- you- do?"
23391What news?"
23391What was it that was responsible for that misty halation of incompleteness, longing?
23391What will you do meantime?"
23391What would you do with him?"
23391What''s a Missouri girl like anyway, Piney?"
23391What''s that you are saying, Piney?"
23391What''s the use in staying longer?"
23391When did Mr. Grierson die?
23391When did he die?"
23391When did you see Piney?"
23391When may I come back?"
23391Where are you from?"
23391Where are you?"
23391Where did you learn all this?"
23391Where is Piney?
23391Where''s your range?"
23391Who''s got the Tigmores?
23391Who''s got the Tigmores?"
23391Why do n''t you try Missouri?"
23391Why do you want to be a fool and hold back from me when I''m willing to pull you along?
23391Why has n''t my father known?"
23391Why have you cut me lately?"
23391Why is he so indifferent to a project for the development of his property that may mean a million to him?"
23391Wo n''t she do the most good?
23391Wo n''t we, Pet?"
23391Would n''t you like to?
23391You are n''t hurt, I hope?
23391You can understand from that, ca n''t you, Carington?
23391You know all these gentlemen, I think?
23391You might sell your rights of discovery, might not you?"
23391You see that, do n''t you?
23391You understand?"
23391You, sair, come from the East, hein?
23391_ Chapter Ten_ WHO''S GOT THE TIGMORES?
23391_ Last Septem_---- Why, where''s the word been all this while, Piney?
23391_ Now_, it does n''t matter which of us owns the old hills, does it?"
23391_ Something_ is the matter with you?"
23391cried Miss Madeira, and then foolishly, and unnecessarily, inquired,"who is he?"
23391cried Old Bernique,"is it that----?"
23391eh, what foolishness is this, a dead man''s letter?
23391eh?
23391for him?"
23391he cried on a sudden inspiration,"why wo n''t you come in and stay with me?
23391he cried,"what''s this?
23391he murmured,"Is that it, Salome?"
23391he whimpered, in a furtive, scared way,"Sally?"
23391said the girl,"Are n''t you glad they are almost yours?"
23391she cried,"well?"
23391struck another lode?"
23391the people had called from the porches of the hill cabins,"Hikin''over the Ridge?"
23391the secrets within the bowed slender lilies?
23391the shaking breath of the wide- lipped roses?
23391the tortured joy of the whole garden life of fragrance and beauty?
23391what dead man?"
23391what''s the matter with the date, where''s the slow- boy been?"
23391what''s the matter with you anyhow?
23391what''s this?"
44574A young girl?
44574After refusing contemptuously this eligible alliance, which united every condition of age and fortune and position, what did the fool do? 44574 Am I not her brother, and your best friend?"
44574Am I not your only relative? 44574 And do I not love you?"
44574And he does not know you?
44574And her abductor?
44574And how much will you pay for this mission?
44574And my friend and brother, are you aware what magnificent river runs at your own door? 44574 And my wretched persecutor-- you will bring him to me?"
44574And now that this is settled, you are in no hurry?
44574And now which way do we go?
44574And the captain did this?
44574And what did he say?
44574And what was the result?
44574And where will you land?
44574And who may he be?
44574And you go alone?
44574And you will pay for this capture?
44574And your grandfather?
44574Anything else?
44574Are you going to have the blues again?
44574Are you quite positive?
44574Are you sure of his identity?
44574Are you sure of what you say?
44574Are you tolerably strong, miss?
44574As you have heard our conversation,he said,"why do you try and oppose our free departure?"
44574But had you not better rest a while?
44574But if you do n''t find this beautiful country?
44574But may I ask with what object you took her away?
44574But that is our business?
44574But what can my father do in the matter?
44574But what has happened?
44574But when shall I see you again? 44574 But when?"
44574But, father,cried Diana,"what are we to do during your absence?
44574But,said Bright- eye, with considerable hesitation,"supposing there was treachery?"
44574By the way, have you said anything to her?
44574Can I come in?
44574Can a man find no free land on earth?
44574Can it be possible?
44574Did he say nothing?
44574Did you find the deerskin I left behind?
44574Do n''t you know they swarm about here? 44574 Do n''t you know?"
44574Do we go directly?
44574Do you know my brother Joshua?
44574Do you know where he is?
44574Do you then mean to make some stay in the valley?
44574Do you think the redskins are blind? 44574 Do you think,"he whispered,"I ever meant to desert my niece?"
44574Do you want to lend me any?
44574Do you?
44574Does it displease you, mistress?
44574For what purpose?
44574Gentlemen,he cried, standing resolutely before them,"what is the meaning of this visit in my absence?"
44574Handsome beast, is it not?
44574Harry, have you obeyed my orders?
44574Have I kept my promise?
44574Have I not told you? 44574 Have my orders been executed?"
44574Have these squatters much cultivated land?
44574Have you had good hunting lately?
44574Have you much money?
44574Have you received any letters signed''_ An old friend_''?
44574Have you seen this beautiful country?
44574How could I help it? 44574 How do you know, sir?"
44574How do you mean to travel?
44574How is that?
44574How many?
44574How so?
44574How so?
44574How so?
44574How so?
44574How will you set about it?
44574I am not generous?
44574I dare say we should be more at our ease-- eh, captain?
44574I did not think of that,granted the squatter;"well, then, on the other side, what neighbours have we?"
44574I suppose I need not introduce you to yonder tall young fellow?
44574I suppose he described the situation of the valley-- its distance from all habitations?
44574I thought,exclaimed Samuel,"he was as mad as ever; will you explain the object of this journey or exploration?"
44574If not hunting, what were you doing?
44574In the name of heaven, is it you who speak in that way, chief?
44574In time to do what?
44574In what way?
44574Is he happy?
44574Is it not so? 44574 Is not France our mother, and do we not always forgive our mother?
44574Is not my whole life passed,continued the outlaw, sadly,"in outdoing others in cunning and diplomacy?"
44574Is the valley so beautiful as you say?
44574Laugh away, you young rascal,said the squatter;"but if we have to leave our bones here?"
44574Let me ask you where are you going?
44574Many years ago?
44574May I ask the name of my countryman?
44574May I ask who put this silly idea in your head?
44574May I without offence ask you this question: Were you not very well where you were? 44574 May I, without offence, ask what that is?"
44574Miserable wretch,asked the wounded man,"are you a traitor?"
44574Modified in what way?
44574My dear relations,said Lagrenay, in an insinuating voice,"will you honour me by accepting refreshments?"
44574My sister abducted?
44574My son, I thank you,said Joshua;"what do I not owe to you?
44574Need I say that from the first moment I saw her I loved your niece? 44574 Not far off, are we, Charbonneau?
44574Now are you disposed to be the man?
44574Now that we know one another as countrymen, suppose we make more intimate acquaintance?
44574Of course you did not refuse?
44574Of course; and now may I ask, what have you done with your magnificent southern property?
44574Of her own accord?
44574Oh, yes,she cried,"I have indeed been very unhappy; how, in fact, could I be otherwise?"
44574On foot, on horseback, or do we swim?
44574One question first-- Are you prepared as a dweller in the desert to submit to its habits and customs?
44574Pretty fair; and what was your game?
44574Quite right,coolly replied Joshua;"and now about this important business?"
44574Quite so, Sleepy; but I want to know why the captain, who must have heard our signal, is still quiet?
44574Quite true,said the old man;"what is to be done?"
44574Really, sir,said the captain,"and have you come all this way to tell me this piece of news?"
44574Sandy, is that you? 44574 Shall I introduce you to him?"
44574Sirs,said Louis to the Americans,"you are the new squatters established in the Moose Deer Valley?"
44574Still, do you consent? 44574 That is always the first thing to be thought of,"said Pierre Durand;"and now what is the nature of the restitution?"
44574The conditions?
44574Then Evening Dew owned her love to Bright- eye?
44574Then I am not mistaken?
44574Then I can wholly depend on you?
44574Then all I have to do is to go?
44574Then allow me to observe,said George Clinton, drily,"why are we here?"
44574Then he has told you all about this country?
44574Then it appears you are not quite satisfied?
44574Then of course you are French?
44574Then something can rouse you?
44574Then what do you mean?
44574Then why sulk with your friend?
44574Then you are quite determined?
44574Then you are very unhappy here?
44574Then you give up the idea of your journey?
44574Then you have come from New York together?
44574Then you have no passion for gold?
44574Then,said Joshua, presently,"there is some truth in the story of the gold treasure in the valley?"
44574Then,said Samuel, gazing at him with perfect amazement in his looks,"you are determined?"
44574To what purpose, in a country where nobody knows me?
44574To you, the chief of the outlaws?
44574Too true; and what nations are they?
44574We know that-- what then?
44574Well, considering that I have owned I was a brute,growled Bright- eye,"are you not satisfied?"
44574Well, how can I say?
44574Well, sir?
44574Well, then, how was it that the moment you saw me you addressed me in French?
44574Well, then, we are agreed on four hundred thousand francs( £ 16,000)? 44574 Well, what then?"
44574Well, what then?
44574Well,coolly observed Joshua,"what may be the meaning of all this?"
44574Were you hunting?
44574Were you unable to sell your produce?
44574What about the detachments?
44574What are your conditions?
44574What book is more interesting than that in which God has written on the plains, on the mountains, on the minutest blade of grass?
44574What can you mean? 44574 What do you mean, gentlemen?"
44574What do you mean, sir?
44574What do you mean?
44574What do you mean?
44574What do you mean?
44574What do you think of the information?
44574What do you think of those animals?
44574What do you want?
44574What does it mean?
44574What does my brother Bright- eye mean?
44574What does that prove?
44574What does the man say?
44574What is it, my friend?
44574What is that?
44574What is the matter?
44574What is the meaning of this?
44574What is the use of holding out any longer? 44574 What is the use,"she said, smiling,"asking for reasons which do not exist?
44574What is to be done?
44574What languages do you speak?
44574What matter, major? 44574 What matter?"
44574What matters about fatigue, sir? 44574 What on earth can Pierre mean,"muttered Oliver to himself,"by my doing nothing until we meet again?
44574What rivalry?
44574What says the chief?
44574What to do?
44574What treasure? 44574 What, then, do you call yourself?"
44574When do you intend trying this man who is dangerously wounded and nearly insensible?
44574When, my friend, do you propose to start?
44574Where is he now?
44574Where is he?
44574Where is she then, father?
44574Where on earth could he be going to?
44574Which means?
44574Who does not know Master Stoneweld, of the house of Stoneweld, Errard, and Co., the richest shipowner in all Boston?
44574Who else do you suppose it is?
44574Who has dared?
44574Who is this man?
44574Who knows? 44574 Who knows?
44574Who may Charbonneau be?
44574Whom did you send out to inquire?
44574Why at first?
44574Why did Numank- Charake show such want of confidence in his brother?
44574Why do you ask me this question?
44574Why not go over to the island?
44574Why not go with me?
44574Why not stay with me? 44574 Why not?"
44574Why should I exaggerate, old hunter? 44574 Why so?"
44574Why stop here?
44574Why, instead of leaving me to die in the prairie, was I brought here?
44574Why?
44574Why?
44574Will he be there?
44574Will you answer me?
44574Will you be my friend?
44574Will you explain this outrage?
44574Will you not empty a cup of whisky?
44574Will you take no advice?
44574Will you tell me why?
44574Will you tell me why?
44574With empty pockets?
44574You are indeed a sinister messenger, chief,said the old man, bitterly;"whence do you get this news?"
44574You are not angry with me?
44574You are not going?
44574You are quite right-- some more rum in your coffee? 44574 You are, I believe, well acquainted with me?"
44574You assisted him?
44574You bear me no malice?
44574You declare this man unknown to you?
44574You do n''t know me?
44574You do not mean to say so?
44574You exact no ransom whatever?
44574You had a definite object, I suppose?
44574You know you are welcome to act; still, why look for me?
44574You raise the camp for so small a journey?
44574You remember our conversation at Brest?
44574You will establish yourself in Boston?
44574A night journey like this?"
44574Am I not your slave for life?''
44574And how many are here?"
44574Anything else?"
44574Are there any about?"
44574Are we far from your hut?"
44574Are we not devoted to you body and soul?"
44574Are you asleep, Camotte?"
44574Are you satisfied?"
44574As we have gone so far in the desert, what matters fifty leagues more or less?
44574Besides, I have known you a very long time, have n''t I?
44574But how did you know of my brother''s coming out here?"
44574But mark my word, you may live five, perhaps ten years with the Indians; but at last you will weary of this existence-- what will you do then?"
44574But what could I do?
44574But what have I to do with it?"
44574But what is the affair that detains you here, to which you just alluded?"
44574But what is your precise motive?"
44574But when he is in one of his mad fits, why do you not interfere?"
44574But why are you so late?"
44574But, as far as I am concerned, I am afraid--""Of what are you afraid, my son?"
44574But, then, how can we carry him?"
44574By the way, I may as well ask you, are you very tired?"
44574By what title?"
44574Did I keep my promise?"
44574Did we go openly to him?
44574Did you not find the land excellent?"
44574Do you accept?"
44574Do you give this man up to us, yes or no?"
44574Do you know, Master George, dogs never make a mistake?"
44574Do you love me?''
44574Do you or do you not intend to be bound by it?"
44574Do you recollect François Magnaud, Paul Sambrun, and Pedro Lopez?"
44574Do you remember Louis Querehard?
44574Do you ride?"
44574Do you think I would cheat you?"
44574Do you think to cheat an old opossum like me?
44574Do you think to keep me in ignorance of your motive in coming this way?"
44574Do you understand such folly on his part?"
44574Does not Numank- Charake find his hut very solitary during the long winter nights, when the wind howls in the forest and the snow covers the earth?''
44574Does this bird sing in your heart?''
44574George Clinton, is it not so?"
44574Have I done anything to offend?"
44574Have I well said?"
44574Having settled that very important fact, any news on the island?"
44574He is very much in your way?"
44574Here I am, my friend-- what am I to do?"
44574Here is a noble, young, rich, brave--""But,"cried Joshua,"what has that to do with it?"
44574How did you discover it?"
44574How is the king?"
44574How is your father?"
44574I know who is the woman whom my brother loves, but why let me guess all about it, instead of telling me?
44574I presume, then, that you are that friend; but why not avow yourself?"
44574I ran and found--""A bear?"
44574I shall let him know of your coming; but why?"
44574I suppose you have not come three miles in the dew to kiss your old uncle?"
44574I will mount his horse; you can hand him up to me; I will then carry him in my arms to the wigwam-- what say you?"
44574I''m your man,"cried Pierre, laughing;"what do you think of me?"
44574In the first place, by what right have you squatted in that place?"
44574Is anything broken?"
44574Is it not horrible?
44574Is it true?"
44574Let us forget the past,"said the old man;"what can we do for you?"
44574May I ask its nature?"
44574May I ask what they are?"
44574May I therefore be allowed to speak a few words?"
44574Now then,"he added, laughing,"are you not fortunate?"
44574Now, fellow,"to the man Camotte,"will you confess?"
44574Once more, are you not satisfied?"
44574One fine morning, without saying a word to anybody, he left his business to a partner, and started off, sir-- what for?"
44574Samuel?"
44574Sport is only good morning and evening, is it not?"
44574Still, things looked ugly for me-- but what is the use of a battle in which half of us would be massacred?
44574Talk business now?
44574Then all we have to do is to catch him?"
44574Then you are very anxious to secure him?"
44574Were you looking for me?"
44574What about the river?"
44574What absence?"
44574What could put it into the mad head of my brother to bring us here?
44574What do you intend to do?"
44574What do you think I have been doing since I saw you?"
44574What do you think?"
44574What matters it to me, I ask, whether you call yourself Hebrard, Count de Mas d''Azyr, Philippe de Salnam, Jean Lerou, or take any other alias?"
44574What more is wanted?"
44574What shall I do when he is gone?
44574What will you do for books now?"
44574What would have become of me, fainting in the desert?"
44574When do you expect to catch him?"
44574Where is the young girl?"
44574Where shall we breakfast?"
44574Who can resist anyone so obstinate as you are, my friend?"
44574Who cares?
44574Who will support my miserable existence?
44574Whom else could I trust?
44574Why can we not put off our business arrangements until tomorrow?"
44574Why did you stop when I whistled?"
44574Why should they come here?"
44574Will my pale friends sleep or listen to the voice of a friend?"
44574Will you allow me to give you sincere advice?"
44574Will you answer me?"
44574Will you come and see it?"
44574Will you consent?
44574Will you follow me, sir, first?"
44574Will you remain a Frenchwoman and follow me, or will you stay here and become an Englishwoman?''"
44574Will you return to the house?"
44574With these two books and the magnificent spectacle of Nature around me have I not a whole library?"
44574You can not carry the deer-- shall I hang it up in safety until you send for it?"
44574You claim it, then?"
44574You have had Major Ardenwood''s letter asking an interview today?
44574You have, then, heard of him?"
44574You still intend going off tonight?"
44574You will not refuse this?"
44574You will wait for me, Onoura?''
44574You wo n''t come to my house?
44574Your health, sir,"addressing Oliver;"is it long since you left France?"
44574cried Joshua,"Is that you, my brother?"
44574cried Keen- hand;"Was I not right?"
44574cried Pierre Durand;"Will you tell me a reason?"
44574cried Versenca, boldly;"Do we not follow wherever you go?
44574cried the American;"Am I mad?"
44574cried the husband;"What are you dreaming about?
44574cried the other;"Really now, have you already forgotten poor Camotte?"
44574cried the young man,"Is that really you?"
44574exclaimed Charbonneau, stretching out his arm towards the river,"What is going on?"
44574exclaimed Sleepy, shrugging his shoulders;"Why, is not this wigwam very rich, and the owner absent?
44574he asked;"Is hospitality a mere trick?"
44574he cried,"On the face of the earth?
44574he cried;"Do you intend to torture this man, whose life hangs on a thread?"
44574murmured Oliver, sadly;"Is he one of those enemies who pursue me everywhere?"
44574observed the captain, suspiciously,"Is there anything fresh in the air?"
44574she cried, clasping her hands together, while the pearly tears went down her cheeks;"Is it possible?"
35207A thousand of the devils, did you say?
35207Afraid of what?
35207Ah, Grafton, is that you?
35207Am I not a lady, now?
35207An''yo''un had them and let them go?
35207And Randolph Hamilton-- what of him?
35207And how is Bruno?
35207And the guerrilla who shot you was the same you told us not to shoot?
35207And where did he go when he disappeared so suddenly?
35207And who shot the guerrilla?
35207And will you let anything come between? 35207 And you found out what you were after?"
35207And you rode all the distance from there here, wounded as you were? 35207 Are n''t you going to take your horses?"
35207Are the teamsters armed?
35207Are they going to murder them all?
35207Are we to fight at last?
35207Are you Union or Confed?
35207Are you as friendless as that?
35207Are you certain he was killed?
35207Are you not my own, my true knight- errant?
35207Are you sure you are right?
35207Are you sure,asked Clay,"that your plans will not miscarry?
35207Are you sure?
35207Are you the boy whose father was tarred and feathered, and the Judge took you both in?
35207Be you sure, Josh?
35207Boys, which shall it be-- Mexico or Paris?
35207Bruno? 35207 But how can I leave you, papa?"
35207But how?
35207But what if I meet Colonel Clay?
35207But where did the two hundred men come from?
35207But-- but what became of what was in the pockets?
35207By what right do you arrest me?
35207Ca n''t you go and teach him a lesson he wo n''t forget, before you start for the Ozarks?
35207Can it be that Porter has slipped away without our knowing it?
35207Can it be that old man has been our guardian angel all the time?
35207Can they all be depended on?
35207Colonel Jennison, do you realize what you are doing? 35207 Cowardly?"
35207Did I not see two men with you, Captain?
35207Did Tilly have a little girl?
35207Did n''t Jerry leave men on guard?
35207Did you meet and exterminate the Yankees?
35207Did you think of all that? 35207 Do n''t you see my men are getting impatient?"
35207Do you know who commanded the Federals?
35207Do you know who wrote it?
35207Do you look that far?
35207Do you mean Mark Grafton? 35207 Do you mean it?"
35207Do you really think so, Harry?
35207Do you think Guitar can reinforce you by morning?
35207Do you think I was going to fight the whole Confederate army with my little regiment? 35207 Do you think we can handle them?"
35207Do you want me to corrupt you too, Mabel?
35207Does any one know anything about him?
35207Father, you are not angry with me, are you?
35207Father, you do not hate me?
35207Friend of yours?
35207General, do you remember Guilford Craig?
35207Going away so soon?
35207Going to show the white feather?
35207Grace, what do you mean?
35207Grafton? 35207 Had we not better dig a hole for the fire, and screen it with blankets?"
35207Has anything gone wrong?
35207Has the war disturbed you much?
35207Have you any suspicion?
35207Have you discovered the enemy?
35207Have you read it?
35207Hello, Josh, what''s up?
35207Hello, boys; whar yo''uns goin''?
35207Hello, you here already?
35207Here, what do you think of this, Dan?
35207How about Dorothy Hamilton?
35207How are the folks and how did they take my being wounded?
35207How can he be otherwise, when she whose colors he wears is so kind and merciful?
35207How can we find out where they are?
35207How could you do it? 35207 How do yo''un like it?"
35207How do you know it is bad, then?
35207How is it, Sergeant?
35207How is it, father?
35207How long since you heard from Edward? 35207 How many do you reckon there are?"
35207How many do you suppose there are?
35207How many men has Coffee?
35207How many men have you at Brown''s Springs?
35207How many men have you?
35207How many men will you need to go with you?
35207How many men will you need, Lieutenant?
35207How many?
35207How''s that?
35207I?
35207If you do n''t like the way we fight,he growled,"why are you here, urging us to rise?
35207In the mystery business?
35207Is it cowardly for twenty to flee before a regiment of Yankee cut- throats?
35207Is thar? 35207 Is that all, Grace?
35207Is that all? 35207 Is that so?"
35207Is that you, Stevens?
35207Is there any way out of this, Strachan?
35207Is your name Hiram Smith?
35207Jefferson City?
35207Lawrence, what do you mean?
35207Lick''em? 35207 Many hurt?"
35207Mark, what is it? 35207 Never had an easier job, did we, Jack?"
35207No, but what if I issue a proclamation that if the men who actually murdered Allsman are given up these ten men will be spared?
35207Plenty of rebs around then? 35207 Say, boy, do you know I was in that crowd?"
35207Say, what makes you dress like a blamed guerrilla?
35207Seen anyone since I left?
35207Sending a courier into Missouri?
35207Sent him word? 35207 Sergeant, what time was it when you reached this post?"
35207So it''s all settled between yo''uns?
35207Sure? 35207 The dawg?
35207The ole woman and children?
35207Then Porter is not heah?
35207Then why do you say you are so unworthy? 35207 Then you are a Federal soldier?"
35207Then you refuse to tell me?
35207Then your idea is to attack them in the morning?
35207Think so, do you?
35207This Middleton is the fellow who cut your command all to pieces last fall, is he not?
35207Thought what?
35207Trouble? 35207 Under whose command are they?"
35207Want to back out, do yer?
35207Was it at Pea Ridge you received your wounds?
35207Was it the same person that warned you that you were being pursued in the Ozarks?
35207We found,said the sergeant in charge,"whom do you think?
35207We''uns? 35207 Well, how do I measure?"
35207Well, how do you like it?
35207Well, what did you find?
35207Whar be yo''goin''?
35207Whar be yo''goin''in sich a hurry? 35207 Whar be yo''uns goin''?"
35207Whar hev''yo''uns been?
35207Whar is Bill?
35207What Federal officer did you say was in command?
35207What about the front?
35207What are you doing here, away from your command?
35207What are you waiting for?
35207What could have induced him to visit our camp?
35207What did I tell yo''un? 35207 What did you say, father?"
35207What difference should that make as far as Helen and I are concerned?
35207What do yo''un have to say before we''uns string you up?
35207What do you say, Billy? 35207 What do you think of that, Bruno?"
35207What do you think of that, Dan?
35207What do you think of that?
35207What do you think of the plan, Billy?
35207What do you think, Dan?
35207What do you think, Dan?
35207What have I done, child? 35207 What if someone should take me from you?"
35207What if we run into Porter and his whole gang?
35207What is it you want me to promise, Agnes? 35207 What is it, General?
35207What is it, child?
35207What is it, father?
35207What is it?
35207What is it?
35207What is it?
35207What is to be done now?
35207What is your name?
35207What made you buy it?
35207What makes you think so, Grace?
35207What makes you think so?
35207What now, Bruno? 35207 What shall we do, Dan?"
35207What was it, Carl?
35207What will be done with all the food and forage you have gathered? 35207 What''s that?
35207What''s that?
35207What''s the matter?
35207What''s the trouble?
35207When did it happen?
35207When?
35207Where are the other two divisions?
35207Where are you going if I do this?
35207Where are you taking me? 35207 Where can Warren be?
35207Where did he come from?
35207Where did you get that?
35207Where have I been?
35207Where have you been?
35207Where is Mark?
35207Where were you when this happened?
35207Which be yo''uns?
35207Who are yo''uns?
35207Who are you?
35207Who be yo''un?
35207Who be yo''uns, an''whar be yo''uns goin''?
35207Who is this fellow hanging around here?
35207Who wrote this?
35207Why are you without clothes?
35207Why ca n''t we occupy that ambush ourselves?
35207Why did General Price do it?
35207Why did n''t yo''uns lick''em?
35207Why did n''t you buy her too?
35207Why did n''t you occupy the road as ordered?
35207Why did n''t you send word to the General then that the enemy was passing along this road in force?
35207Why do you cry?
35207Why do you do this, Mark?
35207Why go at all?
35207Why go, Mark, if it is so dangerous?
35207Why in thunder did n''t Warren come?
35207Why not stop and fight them?
35207Why should I?
35207Why should he shoot at you?
35207Why so glum, Captain?
35207Why, Grace, what made you so long?
35207Why, am I growing homely?
35207Why, father, what is the matter?
35207Why, have n''t you heard? 35207 Why, what''s the matter with Guitar?"
35207Why, what''s the matter, Bruno?
35207Wrong to kill guerrillas?
35207Yes; what of it?
35207You are a soldier, are n''t you?
35207You are in charge of the rear guard, are you not?
35207You can send for Harry now, ca n''t you?
35207You have Indians in your command, have you not?
35207You have heard nothing of him, have you, Captain?
35207You knew, and never let on?
35207You pretend to be men and call this war?
35207You say the garrison did not surrender?
35207Young man,he hissed,"do you know what you are doing?
35207A tall, lank, cadaverous native ejected a mouthful of tobacco juice and drawled,"Directed to Joe Porter, is it?
35207Agnes, to lead you into danger-- how can I do it?"
35207Air yo''un Union or Confed?"
35207An''that dawg-- didn''t he make no fuss when yo''un crept up?"
35207And fought the two hundred?"
35207And why send it to me?"
35207Anything new at Fulton?"
35207Are there many Union men residing among these hills?"
35207Are you married, or have you committed some heinous crime?"
35207Are you sick?"
35207As they came abreast of Harry he heard one of them say,"What time do you expect to attack Palmyra, Colonel?"
35207Be yo''one of Porter''s men?
35207But am I not leaving her?
35207But now she asked,"What is the name of the book you girls are talking about?"
35207But were not the warnings you received in the mountains rather mysterious?"
35207But whar did the boy come from?
35207But what are you doing in St. Louis?
35207But what did Mark mean by saying Grace was for neither of them?
35207But what makes you think the South is all wrong?"
35207But where are the Yankees?"
35207But where were Lawrence and Dan all the time the battle was raging?
35207But who air yo''un carryin''the news to?"
35207But who could have written this?"
35207But why do I indulge in such vain hope that he is alive?
35207But would he have time?
35207By whom?"
35207CHAPTER X THE GUERRILLA''S BRIDE"How did you come to be with the soldiers I met?"
35207Can I ever forget what he and you were to Lyon?"
35207Can I forgit the brute that had his teeth in my throat?
35207Captain Jackson has charge of the advance; how many men has he?"
35207Coffee has n''t run clear away, has he?"
35207Could Jack have been captured by lurking guerrillas?
35207Could he find his way in the darkness?
35207Dan, tell the truth-- were you ever in love?"
35207Day by day Lola had become more precious to him, and as he looked at Lawrence he thought,"Why should she not prefer him to me?"
35207Did Grace know the feeling Mark Grafton had for her?
35207Did n''t you see the dawg?"
35207Did the Yankees get him?"
35207Did we not bring you back from the very brink of the grave?
35207Do n''t I know the boy, and do n''t I know the dawg?
35207Do n''t want to stay with the hosses, Josh?"
35207Do yo''uns know whar we''uns can find him?"
35207Do you know what I am going to do with you?"
35207Do you think I would have left you, if I had been one of the four?"
35207Does not the blood of the Union men murdered by Porter''s gang cry for vengeance?
35207Does that make you love me less?"
35207Father, what do you mean?"
35207For interfering with the hellish work of that murderer?
35207Grace grew restless, her father anxious, and Tilly kept asking,"Whar is mah boy?"
35207Grace, will you not say good- bye?"
35207Guilford, Guilford, are you still alive?
35207Had Big Tom told the truth?
35207Had Mark been talking about her to him?
35207Had he not taken a solemn oath to kill them on sight?
35207Had the time come for him to make that threat good?
35207Harry''s heart stood still; was the ambuscade to be discovered at the last minute?
35207Harry, what''s up?"
35207Has not many a plot been hatched right here?
35207Has not this house been a rendezvous for those passing to and fro between this State and Arkansas?
35207Have any trouble?"
35207He has been delirious most of the time, and what do you think?
35207Her secret was her own; why tell it?
35207How are both to be warned?
35207How are you, old fellow?"
35207How could that old man have come over the mountains and got ahead of us?"
35207How could you do it?"
35207How did he die?
35207How did he know we''uns was heah?"
35207How did it happen?"
35207How did you and she part?"
35207How did you come by them?"
35207How far is it from Platte City to where Judge Lindsly lives?"
35207How is Mrs. Hamilton now?"
35207How is everything?"
35207How many men has Thompson?"
35207How many men have you, Captain?"
35207How was he faring in these troublesome times?
35207How would you like to take Dupont''s place?"
35207I know you can, ca n''t you?"
35207I wonder what these can be?"
35207If I be Union, I get pay for my cohn and hawgs, do n''t I?"
35207If I had been, would you still love me?"
35207If he loved her why did he remain silent?
35207Is he here now?"
35207Is it strange that, as he went on his way, his thoughts were all of the beautiful girl he had just left?
35207It was hard for Grace to think the cause of Mark''s reticence was that he had fled for committing some criminal act, but what else could it be?
35207Jack gazed at him a moment in silence and then muttered,"Number Two, but who killed him?"
35207Jackson drew himself proudly up and growled:"Who''s in command of this train, you or I?
35207Just then Hicks caught sight of Duncan, and yelled:"Bill, did yo''un meet a party of about a dozen men a few minutes ago?"
35207Leave you here unprotected?
35207Looking at him with yearning eyes, she whispered,"Do you love me?"
35207Major Powell could only gasp,"Seen no Yankees?"
35207Mark gone, all alone?"
35207Mark, did it hurt you so?"
35207Mark, tell me what it is?"
35207Mark, what is it?
35207May they not interfere with your plans?"
35207Might he not get help from Hannibal?
35207Mr. Chittenden could only gasp,"What for?"
35207No sooner did Lola see Lawrence than she ran toward him with outstretched hands, crying,"Lawrence, Lawrence, is this indeed you?
35207Poindexter watched them until they were out of sight, and then, turning to Porter, said:"What do you think, Jo?
35207Ran into an ambuscade, did he?
35207Say, young feller, Did yo''un ever face the Merrill Hoss?"
35207Shall I finish him?"
35207Shall we attack them there?"
35207Steve and Sol were now there, excitedly crying,"What''s up?
35207Suddenly some one asked,"Where is Jack Harwood?"
35207The great dog was called, and he came and stood before his master, wagging his tail and looking up in his eyes, as if to say,"What is it?"
35207The hands of both went up, but one exclaimed,"One of Porter''s men?
35207Then a happy thought came to him,"Say,"he asked,"did n''t the Kunnel tell us whar to rally after this affair was over?"
35207Then she turned to her father and asked,"Will he get well?"
35207They halted at the sight of the two men and one cried,"Why, Sloan and Hicks, what''s up?
35207Think of him fighting Porter?"
35207This letter must have been written by another, but who?
35207Was he being robbed by both guerrillas and Federals?
35207Was he captured?"
35207Was n''t she splendid?"
35207Whar be yo''un goin''?"
35207Whar is Coffee?"
35207What could Mark mean by intimating that some great peril might be impending?
35207What did I tell yo''un?"
35207What did it mean?
35207What did they mean?"
35207What did you say your name was?"
35207What does this mean?"
35207What has skeered yo''?"
35207What have you done?"
35207What if he should discover this ambuscade?"
35207What is he like?"
35207What is it?"
35207What is one life to that?"
35207What kind of a book was it?
35207What news?"
35207What puzzles me is, who gave us the warning?"
35207What trouble?"
35207What was he to do?
35207What was it?"
35207What was to be done with Randolph?
35207What would he say if he knew she was for the Union?
35207What would the end be?
35207What''s the difference?"
35207What''s the matter?"
35207What''s the matter?"
35207What''s up?"
35207When Mr. Chittenden heard of the dead man''s request, he said:"Mark, will you go?
35207When he saw Harry he stopped and his hand went to his belt,"Who be yo''un,"he growled,"and what do yo''un want?"
35207Where in the world did he come from?
35207Where is Bruno?"
35207Who asked him to be more?
35207Who else could obtain the information contained in this letter?
35207Who else would write me, and me alone, and give such important information?
35207Who ever heard of a man wearing a nightgown?
35207Who is Bruno?"
35207Who is he?"
35207Who will volunteer to take this fellow''s place?"
35207Who would dream of finding such a girl in the Ozarks?
35207Who?
35207Why are n''t you with Red Jerry?"
35207Why could n''t we have stayed a few hours longer?"
35207Why did we leave them?
35207Why does n''t the fellow show himself, if he is our friend?"
35207Why had they not brought Colonel Warren to the rescue?
35207Why will you persist in fighting against those who were your friends?
35207Will it be destroyed?"
35207Will you always love me, even if I am not what you think?"
35207Would it be possible to bring help to the besieged men?
35207Would not one swerve to avoid the coming blow?
35207You are not with him now, are you?"
35207You have heard no news of him, have you?"
35207Your daughter?"
35207and how did he get here?"
35207chuckled the fellow,"yo''un did n''t count on that, did yo''un?
35207were you?
35207what will become of my daughter, if I am dragged away to a Federal prison?"
32325Ai n''t them old crippled picks and things in there good enough to dig a nigger out with?
32325And ai n''t it natural and right for a cat and a cow to talk different from_ us_?
32325And ai n''t you had nothing but that kind of rubbage to eat?
32325And so you ai n''t had no meat nor bread to eat all this time? 32325 And_ Jim?_""The same,"I says, but could n''t say it pretty brash.
32325Any men on it?
32325Bilgewater, kin I trust you?
32325Blame it, ca n''t you_ try?_ I only_ want_ you to try-- you need n''t keep it up if it do n''t work.
32325Brought you down from whar? 32325 But I reckon we ought to tell Uncle Harvey she''s gone out awhile, anyway, so he wo n''t be uneasy about her?"
32325But I thought_ you_ lived in Sheffield?
32325But how can we do it if we do n''t know what it is?
32325But it''s_ somebody''s_ plates, ai n''t it?
32325But looky here, Tom, what do we want to_ warn_ anybody for that something''s up? 32325 But my lan'', Mars Sid, how''s I gwyne to make''m a witch pie?
32325But what time o''day?
32325But you can guess, ca n''t you? 32325 Cairo?
32325Come, ai n''t that what you saw?
32325Could n''t they see better if they was to wait till daytime?
32325Dad fetch it, how is I gwyne to dream all dat in ten minutes?
32325Dern your skin, ai n''t the company good enough for you?
32325Did anybody send''em word?
32325Did n''t I_ say_ I was going to help steal the nigger?
32325Did you ever see us before?
32325Do I know you? 32325 Do n''t anybody know?"
32325Do n''t mind what I said-- please don''t-- you_ wo n''t_, now,_ will_ you?
32325Do n''t they give''em holidays, the way we do, Christmas and New Year''s week, and Fourth of July?

32325Is dat so?
32325Is it_ ketching?_ Why, how you talk. 32325 Is that what you live on?"
32325It''s natural and right for''em to talk different from each other, ai n''t it?
32325Keep what, Mars Tom?
32325Laws, how do I know? 32325 Looky here, Jim; does a cat talk like we do?"
32325Looky here,I says;"did you ever see any Congress- water?"

32325Now, George Jackson, do you know the Shepherdsons?
32325Now,says Ben Rogers,"what''s the line of business of this Gang?"
32325Oh, that''s the way of it?
32325Oh, well, that''s all interpreted well enough as far as it goes, Jim,I says;"but what does_ these_ things stand for?"
32325Oh, you did, did you? 32325 Oh,_ do_ shet up!--s''pose the rats took the_ sheet?__ Where''s_ it gone, Lize?"

32325Well, then, what''s the sense in wasting the plates?
32325Well, then, why ai n''t it natural and right for a_ Frenchman_ to talk different from us? 32325 Well, then,"I says,"how''ll it do to saw him out, the way I done before I was murdered that time?"
32325Well, then,I says,"if we do n''t want the picks and shovels, what do we want?"
32325Well, we can wait the two hours anyway and see, ca n''t we?
32325Well, what did come of it, Jim?

32325Well,I says,"s''pose we got some genies to help_ us_--can''t we lick the other crowd then?"
32325Well--_what?_he says, kind of pettish.

32325Why did n''t you tell my Jack to fetch me here sooner, Jim?
32325Why do n''t it, Huck?
32325Why do you reckon Harvey do n''t come? 32325 Why, Huck, doan''de French people talk de same way we does?"
32325Why, Jim?
32325Why, are they after him yet?
32325Why, blame it, it''s a riddle, do n''t you see? 32325 Why, how did you get hold of the raft again, Jim-- did you catch her?"
32325Why, how long you been on the island, Jim?
32325Why, pap and mam and sis and Miss Hooker; and if you''d take your ferryboat and go up there--"Up where? 32325 Why, what do they want with more?"
32325Why, what else is gone, Sally?
32325Why, where ever did you go?
32325Why, where was you raised? 32325 Why, who''s got it?"
32325Why?
32325Why?
32325Will you do it, honey?--will you? 32325 With_ who?_ Why, the runaway nigger, of course.
32325Yes, it_ is_ good enough for me; it''s as good as I deserve; for who fetched me so low when I was so high? 32325 Yes,_ dey_ will, I reck''n, Mars Tom, but what kine er time is_ Jim_ havin''?
32325You do n''t_ know?_ Do n''t answer me that way. 32325 You hain''t seen no towhead?
32325You mean to say our old raft warn''t smashed all to flinders?
32325You numskull, did n''t you see me_ count_''m?
32325You wo n''t, wo n''t you? 32325 You would n''t look like a servant- girl_ then_, would you?"
32325You''re s''rp-- Why, what do you reckon_ I_ am? 32325 _ Ain''_ dat gay?
32325_ Do_ with it? 32325 _ Hannel_''m, Mars Sid?

32325_ Him?_says Aunt Sally;"the runaway nigger?
32325_ How?_ Why, hain''t you been talking about my coming back, and all that stuff, as if I''d been gone away?
32325_ How?_ Why, hain''t you been talking about my coming back, and all that stuff, as if I''d been gone away?
32325_ Sold_ him?
32325_ Which_ candle?
32325_ Whose_ pew?
32325_ Work?_ Why, cert''nly it would work, like rats a- fighting. 32325 _ You_ talk like an Englishman,_ do n''t_ you?
32325Ai n''t I right?"
32325Ai n''t that sensible?"
32325Ai n''t that so?"
32325All through dinner Jim stood around and waited on him, and says,"Will yo''Grace have some o''dis or some o''dat?"
32325And I_ did_ start to tell him; but he shut me up, and says:"Do n''t you reckon I know what I''m about?
32325And after a minute, he says:"How''d you say he got shot?"
32325And ai n''t that a big enough majority in any town?"
32325And by and by the old man says:"Did I give you the letter?"
32325And could n''t the nigger see better, too?
32325And did the sad hearts thicken, And did the mourners cry?
32325And do you reckon they''d be mean enough to go off and leave you to go all that journey by yourselves?
32325And leave my sisters with them?"
32325And looky here-- you drop that school, you hear?
32325And not sell out the rest o''the property?
32325And s''pose he steps in here any minute, and sings out my name before I can throw him a wink to keep quiet?
32325And they call it the_ mumps?_""That''s what Miss Mary Jane said."
32325And turns to me, perfectly ca''m, and says,"Did_ you_ hear anybody sing out?"
32325And what do you reckon they said?
32325And what do you think?
32325And what kind o''uncles would it be that''d rob-- yes,_ Rob_--sech poor sweet lambs as these''at he loved so at sech a time?
32325And what would you want to saw his leg off for, anyway?"
32325And what_ for_?
32325And when the king got done this husky up and says:"Say, looky here; if you are Harvey Wilks, when''d you come to this town?"
32325And would n''t he throw style into it?--wouldn''t he spread himself, nor nothing?
32325And you ca n''t get away with that tooth without fetching the whole harrow along, can you?
32325And you wo n''t go?
32325And you would n''t leave them any?
32325And, besides, he said them little birds had said it was going to rain, and did I want the things to get wet?
32325And_ then_ what did you all do?"
32325Are you all ready?
32325Ask him to show up?
32325Bekase why: would a wise man want to live in de mids''er sich a blim- blammin''all de time?
32325Buck?--land?"
32325But Bill says:"Hold on--''d you go through him?"
32325But Tom thought of something, and says:"You got any spiders in here, Jim?"
32325But answer me only jest this one more-- now_ do n''t_ git mad; did n''t you have it in your mind to hook the money and hide it?"
32325But at supper, at night, one of the little boys says:"Pa, may n''t Tom and Sid and me go to the show?"
32325But he''ll be pooty lonesome-- dey ain''no kings here, is dey, Huck?"
32325But how you goin''to manage it this time?"
32325But now she says:"Honey, I thought you said it was Sarah when you first come in?"
32325But other times they just lazy around; or go hawking-- just hawking and sp-- Sh!--d''you hear a noise?"
32325But s''pose she_ do n''t_ break up and wash off?"
32325But when he did get the thing straightened around he looked at me steady without ever smiling, and says:"What do dey stan''for?
32325But you got a gun, hain''t you?
32325But you wouldn''tell on me ef I''uz to tell you, would you, Huck?"
32325By and by Jim says:"But looky here, Huck, who wuz it dat''uz killed in dat shanty ef it warn''t you?"
32325By and by, when they was asleep and snoring, Jim says:"Do n''t it s''prise you de way dem kings carries on, Huck?"
32325Ca n''t you think of no way?"
32325Ca n''t you_ see_ that_ they''d_ go and tell?
32325Come slow; push the door open yourself-- just enough to squeeze in, d''you hear?"
32325Conscience says to me,"What had poor Miss Watson done to you that you could see her nigger go off right under your eyes and never say one single word?
32325Could you raise a flower here, do you reckon?"
32325Dad blame it, why doan''he_ talk_ like a man?
32325Did n''t you?"
32325Did you come for your interest?"
32325Did you hear''em shooting the cannon?"
32325Did you inquire around for_ him_ when you got loose?
32325Did you speculate any more?"
32325Did you tell Aunty?"
32325Didn''he jis''dis minute sing out like he knowed you?"
32325Do n''t I generly know what I''m about?"
32325Do n''t I tell you it''s in the books?
32325Do n''t anybody live there?
32325Do n''t you know about the harem?
32325Do n''t you know nothing?"
32325Do n''t you know what a feud is?"
32325Do n''t you reckon I know who hid that money in that coffin?"
32325Do n''t you reckon that the people that made the books knows what''s the correct thing to do?
32325Do n''t you see I has?"
32325Do they treat''em better''n we treat our niggers?"
32325Do you know him?"
32325Do you like to comb up Sundays, and all that kind of foolishness?
32325Do you own a dog?
32325Do you reckon Tom Sawyer would ever go by this thing?
32325Do you reckon that''ll do?"
32325Do you reckon you can learn me?"
32325Do you reckon_ you_ can learn''em anything?
32325Do you want to go to doing different from what''s in the books, and get things all muddled up?"
32325Do you want to spread it all over?"
32325Does three hundred dollars lay around every day for people to pick up?
32325Does you know''bout dat chile dat he''uz gwyne to chop in two?"
32325Does you want to go en look at''i m?"
32325Down by the woodpile I comes across my Jack, and says:"What''s it all about?"
32325En did n''t I bust up agin a lot er dem islands en have a turrible time en mos''git drownded?
32325En what dey got to do, Huck?"
32325En what use is a half a chile?
32325En you ain''dead-- you ain''drownded-- you''s back ag''in?
32325Every little while he jumps up and says:"Dah she is?"
32325Everybody says,"Why,_ doctor!_"and Abner Shackleford says:"Why, Robinson, hain''t you heard the news?
32325George Jackson, is there anybody with you?"
32325Going to feed the dogs?"
32325Hain''t he run off?"
32325Hain''t we got to saw the leg of Jim''s bed off, so as to get the chain loose?"
32325Hain''t you got no principle at all?"
32325Hain''t your uncles obleeged to get along home to England as fast as they can?
32325Has I ben a- drinkin''?
32325Has I had a chance to be a- drinkin''?"
32325Has everybody quit thinking the nigger done it?"
32325Has n''t he got away?"
32325Have you ever trod the boards, Royalty?"
32325He can hide it in his bed, ca n''t he?
32325He looked astonished, and says:"Hel-_lo!_ Where''d_ you_ come from?"
32325He says:"Ai n''t they no Shepherdsons around?"
32325He says:"If gentlemen kin afford to pay a dollar a mile apiece to be took on and put off in a yawl, a steamboat kin afford to carry''em, ca n''t it?"
32325He says:"What you doin''with this gun?"
32325He says:"Why, what can you mean, my boy?"
32325He says:"Why,_ Tom!_ Where you been all this time, you rascal?"
32325He see me, and rode up and says:"Whar''d you come f''m, boy?
32325He set there a- mumbling and a- growling a minute, and then he says:"_ Ai n''t_ you a sweet- scented dandy, though?
32325He stirred up in a kind of a startlish way; but when he see it was only me he took a good gap and stretch, and then he says:"Hello, what''s up?
32325He took up a little blue and yaller picture of some cows and a boy, and says:"What''s this?"
32325He''d_ let_ me shove his head in my mouf-- fer a favor, hain''t it?
32325Hey?--how''s that?"
32325His eyes just blazed; and he says:"No!--is that so?
32325Honest injun, you ai n''t a ghost?"
32325How can they get loose when there''s a guard over them, ready to shoot them down if they move a peg?"
32325How could a body do it in de night?
32325How do dat come?"
32325How do_ they_ get them?"
32325How does he go at it-- give notice?--give the country a show?
32325How does that strike you?"
32325How fur is it?"
32325How is servants treated in England?
32325How long you ben on de islan''?"
32325How much do a king git?"
32325How old is the others?"
32325How would you like to be treated so?"
32325How''d it get there?"
32325How''d they act?"
32325I ai n''t the man to stand it-- you hear?
32325I ben a- buyin''pots en pans en vittles, as I got a chanst, en a- patchin''up de raf''nights when--""_ What_ raft, Jim?"
32325I hunched Tom, and whispers:"You going, right here in the daybreak?
32325I live up there, do n''t I?
32325I ranged up and says:"Mister, is that town Cairo?"
32325I reckon he can stand a little thing like that, ca n''t he?"
32325I said, why could n''t we see them, then?
32325I says to myself, if a body can get anything they pray for, why do n''t Deacon Winn get back the money he lost on pork?
32325I says to myself, shall I go to that doctor, private, and blow on these frauds?
32325I says to myself, spos''n he ca n''t fix that leg just in three shakes of a sheep''s tail, as the saying is?
32325I says to myself, there ai n''t no telling but I might come to be a murderer myself yet, and then how would I like it?
32325I says:"What do we want of a moat when we''re going to snake him out from under the cabin?"
32325I says:"Who done it?
32325I says:"Why, Jim?"
32325I was going to say yes; but she chipped in and says:"About what, Sid?"
32325I wonder who''tis?
32325I''m for killin''him-- and did n''t he kill old Hatfield jist the same way-- and do n''t he deserve it?"
32325I''ve a good notion to take and-- Say, what do you mean by kissing me?"
32325If the profits has turned out to be none, lackin''considable, and none to carry, is it my fault any more''n it''s yourn?"
32325If they have, wo n''t the complices get away with that bag of gold Peter Wilks left?
32325If you do n''t hitch on to one tooth, you''re bound to on another, ai n''t you?
32325In this neighborhood?"

32325Is there anybody here that helped to lay out my br-- helped to lay out the late Peter Wilks for burying?"
32325Is your husband going over there to- night?"
32325Is your man white or black?"
32325It ai n''t my fault I warn''t born a duke, it ai n''t your fault you warn''t born a king-- so what''s the use to worry?
32325It make me mad; en I says ag''in, mighty loud, I says:"''Doan''you hear me?
32325It was all she could do to hold in; and her eyes snapped, and her fingers worked like she wanted to scratch him; and she says:"Who''s''everybody''?
32325It''s only saying, do you know how to talk French?"
32325Just keep a tight tongue in your head and move right along, and then you wo n''t get into trouble with_ us_, d''ye hear?"

32325Me?
32325Mrs. Phelps she jumps for him, and says:"Has he come?"
32325Next time you roust me out, you hear?"
32325Next, she says:"Do you go to church, too?"
32325Now I want to ask you-- if you got any reasonableness in you at all-- what kind of a show would_ that_ give him to be a hero?
32325Now ain''dat so, boss-- ain''t it so?
32325Now if you''ll go and--""By Jackson, I''d_ like_ to, and, blame it, I do n''t know but I will; but who in the dingnation''s a- going to_ pay_ for it?
32325Now, what do you reckon it is?"
32325Now,_ would n''t_ he?
32325One of them says:"What''s that yonder?"
32325Pretty soon Jim says:"Say, who is you?
32325Pretty soon Tom says:"Ready?"
32325Pretty soon she says:"What did you say your name was, honey?"
32325S''e, what do_ you_ think of it, Sister Hotchkiss?
32325S''pose a man was to come to you and say Polly- voo- franzy-- what would you think?"
32325S''pose he contracted to do a thing, and you paid him, and did n''t set down there and see that he done it-- what did he do?
32325S''pose he opened his mouth-- what then?
32325S''pose he_ do n''t_ do nothing with it?
32325S''pose people left money laying around where he was-- what did he do?
32325S''pose she dug him up and did n''t find nothing, what would she think of me?
32325Say, boy, what''s the matter with your father?"
32325Say, do we kill the women, too?"
32325Say, gimme a chaw tobacker, wo n''t ye?"
32325Say, how long are you going to stay here?
32325Say, how much you got in your pocket?
32325Say, where_ is_ that song-- that draft?"
32325Says I, kind of timid- like:"Is something gone wrong?"
32325Says I--"I broke in and says:"They''re in an awful peck of trouble, and--""_ Who_ is?"
32325Says he:"Do n''t you know, Mars Jawge?"
32325Says the king:"Dern him, I wonder what he done with that four hundred and fifteen dollars?"
32325See?
32325Shall I go, private, and tell Mary Jane?
32325She looked me all over with her little shiny eyes, and says:"What might your name be?"
32325She says:"Did you ever see the king?"
32325She says:"Honest injun, now, hain''t you been telling me a lot of lies?"
32325She was smiling all over so she could hardly stand-- and says:"It''s_ you_, at last!--_ain''t_ it?"
32325Snake take''n bite Jim''s chin off, den_ whah_ is de glory?
32325So I laid there about an hour trying to think, and when Buck waked up I says:"Can you spell, Buck?"
32325So Tom says:"What''s the vittles for?
32325So Tom turns to the nigger, which was looking wild and distressed, and says, kind of severe:"What do you reckon''s the matter with you, anyway?
32325So she put me up a snack, and says:"Say, when a cow''s laying down, which end of her gets up first?
32325So she run on:"Lize, hurry up and get him a hot breakfast right away-- or did you get your breakfast on the boat?"
32325So the question was, what to do?
32325So when I says he goes to our church, she says:"What-- regular?"
32325So, says I, s''pose somebody has hogged that bag on the sly?--now how do_ I_ know whether to write to Mary Jane or not?
32325So, then, what you want to come back and ha''nt_ me_ for?"
32325Soon as I could get Buck down by the corn- cribs under the trees by ourselves, I says:"Did you want to kill him, Buck?"
32325That''s the whole yarn-- what''s yourn?"
32325The doctor he up and says:"Would you know the boy again if you was to see him, Hines?"
32325The duke bristles up now, and says:"Oh, let_ up_ on this cussed nonsense; do you take me for a blame''fool?
32325The duke says, pretty brisk:"When it comes to that, maybe you''ll let me ask what was_ you_ referring to?"
32325The duke says:"Have you seen anybody else go in there?"
32325The king he smiled eager, and shoved out his flapper, and says:"_ Is_ it my poor brother''s dear good friend and physician?
32325The king kind of ruffles up, and says:"Looky here, Bilgewater, what''r you referrin''to?"
32325The king says:"Was you in my room night before last?"
32325The king says:"Why?"
32325The man sung out:"Snatch that light away, Betsy, you old fool-- ain''t you got any sense?
32325The next minute he whirls on me and says:"Do you reckon that nigger would blow on us?
32325The old gentleman stared, and says:"Why, who''s that?"
32325Then Ben Rogers says:"Here''s Huck Finn, he hain''t got no family; what you going to do''bout him?"
32325Then I says to myself, s''pose Tom Sawyer comes down on that boat?
32325Then I says:"Blame it, do you suppose there ai n''t but one preacher to a church?"
32325Then I says:"How do you come to be here, Jim, and how''d you get here?"
32325Then I says:"Miss Mary Jane, is there any place out of town a little ways where you could go and stay three or four days?"
32325Then I thought a minute, and says to myself, hold on; s''pose you''d''a''done right and give Jim up, would you felt better than what you do now?
32325Then he did n''t look so joyful, and says:"What was your idea for asking_ me?_"he says.
32325Then he says, kind of glad and eager,"Where''s the raft?--got her in a good place?"
32325Then he says:"How are you on the deef and dumb, Bilgewater?"
32325Then he says:"What did you want to walk all the way up to the steamboat for?"
32325Then he says:"Who dah?"
32325Then he studied it over and said, could n''t I put on some of them old things and dress up like a girl?
32325Then he turns to Jim, and looks him over like he never see him before, and says:"Did you sing out?"
32325Then she took off the hank and looked me straight in the face, and very pleasant, and says:"Come, now, what''s your real name?"
32325Then the doctor whirls on me and says:"Are_ you_ English, too?"
32325Then the duke says:"What,_ all_ of them?"
32325Then the duke says:"You are what?"
32325Then the old man turns toward the king, and says:"Peraps this gentleman can tell me what was tattooed on his breast?"
32325They sets down then, and the king says:"Well, what is it?
32325Think o''that bed- leg sawed off that a way?
32325Think o''what, Brer Phelps?
32325Thinks I, what does it mean?
32325Thinks I, what is the country a- coming to?
32325Tired of our company, hey?"
32325Tom he looked at the nigger, steady and kind of wondering, and says:"Does_ who_ know us?"
32325Tom looks at me very grave, and says:"Tom, did n''t you just tell me he was all right?
32325Twenty people sings out:"What, is it over?
32325Very well, then; is a_ preacher_ going to deceive a steamboat clerk?
32325W''y, what has you lived on?
32325Want to keep it off?"
32325Warn''dat de beatenes''notion in de worl''?
32325Was Solomon Wise?
32325Was it a Grangerford Shepherdson?"
32325Was there any such mark on Peter Wilks''s breast?"
32325Was you looking for him?"
32325We ai n''t a- going to_ gnaw_ him out, are we?"
32325We both knowed well enough it was some more work of the rattlesnake- skin; so what was the use to talk about it?
32325Well, did he?
32325Well, then, I said, why could n''t she tell her husband to fetch a dog?
32325Well, then, what kind o''brothers would it be that''d stand in his way at sech a time?
32325Well, we got to save_ him_, hain''t we?
32325Well, what did he do?
32325Well, what do you think?
32325Well, you answer me dis: Did n''t you tote out de line in de canoe fer to make fas''to de towhead?"
32325Well,_ was n''t_ he mad?
32325Whar is you?
32325Whar was you brought down from?"
32325What I wanted to know was, what he was going to do, and was he going to stay?
32325What are we going to do?--lay around there till he lets the cat out of the bag?
32325What did that poor old woman do to you that you could treat her so mean?
32325What did they do?

32325What did you_ reckon_ he wanted with it?"
32325What do we k''yer for_ him?_ Hain''t we got all the fools in town on our side?

32325When I struck Susan and the hare- lip, I says:"What''s the name of them people over on t''other side of the river that you all goes to see sometimes?"
32325When Jim called me to take the watch at four in the morning, he says:"Huck, does you reck''n we gwyne to run acrost any mo''kings on dis trip?"
32325When was that?"
32325When we was at dinner, did n''t you see a nigger man go in there with some vittles?"
