31629 | What do we get for it? |
31629 | What is this?" |
31629 | Where do you live?" |
23485 | And did he catch you? |
23485 | And he let you go? |
23485 | And what shall I do with the bag? |

23485 | 2 THE RED POLICEMAN RAN AFTER HIM 7"WHATEVER ARE YOU LAUGHING AT?" |
23485 | At length his wife came in to him from the garden and said,"Whatever are you laughing at?" |
23485 | He shouted out,"What have you got in that bag?" |
23485 | Now why did the old man burn his bag? |
23485 | Whatever shall I do?" |
23485 | [ Illustration:"Whatever are you laughing at?"] |
23485 | said the old man,"a hen?" |
29727 | Chief, what''s up? 29727 Huh? |
29727 | I''m not at all satisfied with the color, are you? 29727 No? |
29727 | Now do you think we ca n''t see you? |
29727 | We''ve come a long way from Gimlet Street, have n''t we, Jasey? 29727 Well?" |
29727 | What did you do? |
29727 | What happened? |
29727 | What''s the matter with you, now? |
29727 | Why do n''t you buy one for your place, Captain? |
29727 | Yeah? 29727 You still have n''t changed a bit, have you, Jasey? |
29727 | _ What?! 29727 But you would n''t listen, Lonnie, would you? |
29727 | Care for a drink? |
29727 | Do you know? |
29727 | He picked a fairly early hour, too, because what matter if a few yawps gawked as the Tiara vanished? |
29727 | How about knocking off?" |
29727 | How? |
29727 | Huh?... |
29727 | It''s off a little, do n''t you think?... |
29727 | Lonnie was gone... or was he? |
29727 | Remember when Aggie told you about it? |
29727 | Then,"Say, Jase, how about it? |
29727 | Well?... |
29727 | What do we do?" |
29727 | What was it?" |
29727 | What''d you say?" |
29727 | What''s happening up there?" |
29727 | What''s happening?" |
29727 | What? |
29727 | What?... |
29727 | Where''s it got you?" |
29727 | Who but he had developed such an efficient philosophy to such an unfailingly incisive point? |
29727 | Yes? |
29727 | You remember Gawley Worin, our famous leg- man, folks, do n''t you? |
35650 | It may be also worthy of inquiry( add the Committee) whether the advantages looked for, from this establishment may not be dependent on its weakness? |
35650 | It may be fairly asked, in what manner a person so situated is to reimburse himself? |
35650 | What impression must these facts make on the intelligent mind!--will they not warrant the following conclusion? |
35650 | What must the profits be to afford such a profusion?] |
35650 | What therefore can rationally be opposed to such an arrangement? |
62255 | All right, Colonel, shall we go? 62255 All right,"agreed Neville,"so what? |
62255 | Bags out, sor? |
62255 | He mimicked the character exactly? |
62255 | How are your shadows doing? |
62255 | How did he work? |
62255 | How''s dis, faller? |
62255 | Huh? |
62255 | Lay out your t''ings, sor? |
62255 | See? |
62255 | Showboat? 62255 What is the next stop, skipper?" |
62255 | What''s that? |
62255 | You do n''t leave that bunk until I tell you to, y''understand? 62255 You''ve got it all, now?" |
62255 | And Mr. Allington, too?" |
62255 | But why_ me_, and why at Pallas?" |
62255 | Clever, eh?" |
62255 | Did it throw your mind off your troubles?" |
62255 | Do I get the information I am after, or do I turn in my agent badge?" |
62255 | Had Lunko improved his technique to the extent that he could even fool a wife? |
62255 | Have you a vacant room where I can hang out for the remainder of the voyage?" |
62255 | He wished... but hell, what was the use? |
62255 | How did it begin, and what do you know?" |
62255 | How long do you stay here?" |
62255 | Now, whom do you think, could have been in a position to compile it?" |
62255 | Or that no progress had been made? |
62255 | Or that there was no emergency? |
62255 | Or, Neville wondered, was his original theory of drugs or hypnotism correct? |
62255 | Then he looked up and barked a caustic,"Well?" |
62255 | Then the man in black turned to Neville and said in an icy voice,"And you, sir-- what is it you wish?" |
62255 | This guy Simeon Carstairs, I take it, is the local man you have picked as the most likely prospect for your Master Mind crook to work on?" |
62255 | Was the Carstairs he was trailing really Carstairs, or an understudy? |
62255 | Well, what do you want_ me_ for? |
62255 | What the hell is a showboat?" |
62255 | What''s the emergency?" |
62255 | Where is Carstairs?" |
62255 | Where was the real Carstairs? |
62255 | Who said anything about having had the_ best_ brains on the job? |
62255 | Who was this phoney Carstairs? |
62255 | Why in hell ca n''t these hicks in the gravel belt learn to catch a ship on time?" |
62255 | Why-- oh, why-- do they let you rookies in here to bother me?" |
62255 | Would you come?" |
62255 | asked Lunko, impatiently,"The combination of his safe, his office and home habits? |
62255 | hokay?" |
60955 | And now you have amended your motto to''to the end of the Earth and beyond''? |
60955 | And why not? 60955 Are you compelling me to do something?" |
60955 | Are you laughing at me with your eyes? |
60955 | But what have the Polite People to do with murder? 60955 Close, but could you turn it just a little darker?" |
60955 | Could you possibly--? |
60955 | Did all the pilots ask to see your eyes? |
60955 | Is Masters one of the young pilots? |
60955 | Is it that the direct gaze of the Puds kills? |
60955 | Is there anything at all else you would like to know? |
60955 | Look like that? 60955 Saving your grace, and formula of a formula, what would you have me tell you about?" |
60955 | Saving your presence, and formula of a formula, what would we have to be violent about? 60955 Suppose that a burglar( for politeness sake called something else) were apprehended by a policeman( likewise), what would happen?" |
60955 | That he will die of shame? 60955 Then there is a real reason for it? |
60955 | Then you have just murdered me? |
60955 | What did all your young pilots die of? |
60955 | What will I die of? |
60955 | What will prevent me? |
60955 | Why did you do it to me? |
60955 | With or without boodle? |
60955 | Would you swear that I have not been given some fatal sickness? |
60955 | You are asking that? |
60955 | You mean they can take on the appearance of people at will? |
60955 | And can you tell it to me?" |
60955 | And if the burglar( not so called) remains unapprehended? |
60955 | And then the burglar( not so called)?" |
60955 | And what of other crimes?" |
60955 | But why build a fence around it?" |
60955 | Could I talk to Bently?" |
60955 | Crude- featured, almost horse- faced, how could they all look like that? |
60955 | Do you have to know why?" |
60955 | How is the loss of the goods or property recorded?" |
60955 | Is it simply custom?" |
60955 | Is that a euphemism?" |
60955 | Or shall I improvise where you do not remember?" |
60955 | What possible cause?" |
60955 | Why are the Polite People of Pudibundia so polite? |
60955 | Why wo n''t I return?" |
60955 | Would n''t a superior be too polite to give a reprimand to an inferior?" |
59516 | Are they a clan, then, or brothers? |
59516 | But tell me, is it still dark? |
59516 | But when-- how long? |
59516 | How will it be on Rigel Twelve? 59516 Is there a tribe of the dominant native species near here?" |
59516 | Is this the house of Amos Sealilly, the factor of Aidennsport? |
59516 | Quite dark? |
59516 | The chief? |
59516 | There are natives in the area then? |
59516 | Was he lost in the swamp? |
59516 | What about him? |
59516 | What are you going to do to me? |
59516 | What do you mean? |
59516 | What do you want here? |
59516 | What do you want? |
59516 | What of Aidennsport? |
59516 | What''s the matter? |
59516 | What''s''inbreeding,''pa? |
59516 | Where did you get that idea? |
59516 | Where have you been? |
59516 | Who do you suppose tipped him off? |
59516 | Who is it? |
59516 | Who''s there? |
59516 | Why have we stopped? |
59516 | Why not? |
59516 | Will you care? |
59516 | You all right? |
59516 | You know them? |
59516 | You refuse? |
59516 | _ Is that you, Joseph?_"That''s pa,Joseph said. |
59516 | _ Laura?_ Damn him! 59516 _ Who?_"Sealilly laughed. |
59516 | _ Who_ is sure to see us? |
59516 | And who are you, anyway?" |
59516 | Do you know what a strategic withdrawal is?" |
59516 | Do you think you will be able to take off?" |
59516 | Do you want to see my crew?" |
59516 | Does that sound so bad?" |
59516 | He asked:"What about the spaceman?" |
59516 | If she had failed to appear-- was hiding in the village-- might not others be hiding too? |
59516 | Tell me, what time is it?" |
59516 | That''s my pa. Say, are you a spaceman?" |
59516 | Where is your father?" |
59516 | Will I ever see you again?" |
59516 | Will you guide me to the rocket? |
59516 | Yet, what must we do?" |
59516 | _ Escape from what?_ he wondered vaguely. |
59652 | And about his being left- handed? |
59652 | Anything new? |
59652 | But you did n''t laugh at him? |
59652 | But-- why? |
59652 | Can you get close enough to get me through that window? |
59652 | Can you give me any idea at all as to the location? |
59652 | Congratulations for what? |
59652 | Do you know what we have here, Forsdon? |
59652 | Do you know where he is now? |
59652 | Do you want to see them? |
59652 | Have you heard from him since you came back? |
59652 | How did they happen to pick him up? |
59652 | How did you manage to invent that thing? |
59652 | How long ago was that? |
59652 | How well did you know him? |
59652 | Is Mike in trouble? |
59652 | Is there anything else you remember about him? |
59652 | May I take you to dinner? |
59652 | See that? |
59652 | Something wrong? |
59652 | Was he-- interested in you? |
59652 | What do you think? |
59652 | What happened to Gregory? |
59652 | What''s good about it? |
59652 | What''s that? |
59652 | When is this glad event going to take place? |
59652 | When? |
59652 | When? |
59652 | Where the hell have you been? 59652 Where was he when you saw him last?" |
59652 | Why did n''t you say so? |
59652 | Why not? |
59652 | Why? |
59652 | Will you trust me? 59652 You mean-- Mike?" |
59652 | You think that would solve the problem? 59652 You wanted information?" |
59652 | You''re certain about the limp? |
59652 | Anything else?" |
59652 | But what about assault, or rape, or murder? |
59652 | But who would have thought Gregory could make like a human fly? |
59652 | But....""But what?" |
59652 | Forsdon?" |
59652 | I was thinking, how stupid can we get? |
59652 | Right?" |
59652 | So it raises an interesting question: Is it possible to change the future?" |
59652 | Something wrong?" |
59652 | Want me to lose my license? |
59652 | What was I thinking about? |
59652 | Will you call your aunt, now, and make the arrangements? |
59652 | You ask me what''s good about it?" |
59652 | You saw the thing?" |
46846 | Are you ill, my beloved? 46846 But the private carriage, the horse, the silver- mounted harness, the luxury of the whole turn- out?" |
46846 | Field- Marshal? 46846 Has he enormous pay or a private fortune?" |
46846 | How can you do that? |
46846 | May I see it? |
46846 | Ten thousand francs lost? 46846 This lady''s? |
46846 | What proof can you give me,asked the War Minister,"of this extraordinary statement?" |
46846 | What wine is that over yonder? |
46846 | Which Schmidt? |
46846 | Who are you, then? |
46846 | Who is it? |
46846 | Why should he not have been found guilty? |
46846 | ''Who were his friends, now?'' |
46846 | A judge was summoned to interrogate him, and asked,"Who struck you?" |
46846 | But how was I to take him? |
46846 | Clearly there had been a crime, but who were the guilty parties? |
46846 | Could he now be permitted, even if he wished, to swear away the life of another man for the same offence? |
46846 | Could such wrong be done to a young and vigorous man without some sort of struggle that would leave its traces on himself and in the scene around? |
46846 | Do you know Hebrew?" |
46846 | Giles then said,"But you are not going to London, are you?" |
46846 | HOAG OR PARKER? |
46846 | Her muff, moreover, was found in the water; why should she have retained that to the last? |
46846 | How and when had the change been effected? |
46846 | How could she have substituted the large for the small? |
46846 | I''d go for one, but which? |
46846 | Might not someone else have made the change? |
46846 | Pinkerton seemed to understand, and the other suddenly asked,"Do you ever deal, any?" |
46846 | Prince Gortschakoff? |
46846 | Surely you know me?" |
46846 | The Surrey jailer, Ives by name, asked him,"Can not this be''stashed''?" |
46846 | The thief would probably try to make tracks out of the country as soon as he could; but which way? |
46846 | Then one of my men came in to say that Burbidge had been seen taking a ticket-- to London? |
46846 | Todleben?" |
46846 | Was it all a fraud? |
46846 | Was it likely that a family party collected round the supper- table would take one of their number downstairs and hang him? |
46846 | What could have been the writer''s object in fabricating it? |
46846 | What could the accused say to rebut such seemingly overwhelming evidence? |
46846 | What had become of the saddle- bags in which the murdered man had carried his cash? |
46846 | What if Marie Capelle( Lafarge) had had something to do with this theft? |
46846 | When reproached with this questionable practice, de Sartines defended it by asking,"Where should I find honest folk who would agree to do such work?" |
46846 | Where had she been all this time? |
46846 | Who had died, if not she? |
46846 | Who shall say what their fate might have been? |
46846 | Why should not suspicion be laid at the door of the Blue Dragoon? |
46846 | Why? |
46846 | Will you, and can you, trust me with a little arsenic? |
46846 | Yet more, Anna Brun, having seen Marie Lafarge mix powder as before in her husband''s drink, heard him cry out,"What have you given me? |
46846 | [ Illustration: CAN THE LAW REACH HIM? |
46846 | who might this be?'' |
59323 | A week? |
59323 | All right, then what else but a flying particle could drill a hole in a man''s forehead the diameter of a piece of 16-gauge wire? |
59323 | And empty lots and all sidewalks and streets and public buildings and the whole damned outdoors plus the indoors? |
59323 | And have them come bleeding back after a few weeks? |
59323 | And the parks? 59323 Any chance that he might recover consciousness?" |
59323 | Can you hear me? |
59323 | Corpses bleed, do n''t they? |
59323 | Good Lord, man, have you no imagination? |
59323 | How did this happen? |
59323 | I figured you''d be waiting for me, Lieutenant, but you know what? |
59323 | Like quarantining the schools and the playgrounds? |
59323 | Like what? |
59323 | Now what? |
59323 | Relax? 59323 Run into them?" |
59323 | So it just shoots stuff off into another dimension? |
59323 | So your little toy was harmless? |
59323 | Still looking for a motive for murder, are n''t you, Lieutenant? |
59323 | That much I grasp, but what good is it except as a demonstration of a piece of pure scientific research? |
59323 | The fever? |
59323 | Then what are you waiting for? |
59323 | Trying to steal my brother''s other invention, are you? 59323 What do the x- rays show?" |
59323 | What do you mean? |
59323 | What happens when some kid jams his gun against a light- pole or an automobile... or the night lock on the First National Bank? |
59323 | What''s the use? 59323 Why did you ask for homicide when you called the police? |
59323 | You have n''t even been to see him? |
59323 | A bombardment from the sky? |
59323 | A detector? |
59323 | A hundred times? |
59323 | All right, suppose a jury would accept such an impalpable theory as a motive, then what? |
59323 | And all back yards and front yards?" |
59323 | Anything else I should do?" |
59323 | Are you sure you want me to try?" |
59323 | But ca n''t you get the dope you want from his brother?" |
59323 | Collins, our print man, said,"Why not just shoot them back into wherever it is they go, with another i- Gun?" |
59323 | Do n''t touch a thing in this room... or did you already?" |
59323 | Do you see why I wanted to keep it a secret until I could patent it?" |
59323 | Eight-- ten weeks ago? |
59323 | Fifty? |
59323 | From now on, understand?" |
59323 | How come you did n''t tell anybody?" |
59323 | How long ago? |
59323 | I suppose they told you that?" |
59323 | Or let''s put it this way: What makes you think it was n''t an accident?" |
59323 | See that?" |
59323 | Suppose, I mused on my way back to the station, that Calvin had refused to let Leo commercialize on his discovery? |
59323 | Ten? |
59323 | We ca n''t do anything about it, so why drive people crazy with fear?" |
59323 | What about the murder- attempt angle?" |
59323 | What did they look like?" |
59323 | What is it?" |
59323 | What would be cheap enough to distribute universally, yet effective enough to give you positive warning? |
59323 | What''s so suspicious about humoring my brother''s research?" |
59323 | When all over the country people are tearing their bodies to pieces? |
59323 | Who''s his beneficiary when he dies?" |
59323 | You do know now?" |
59323 | You know that, do n''t you? |
59323 | _ Durstine, who would fire a 20-year man without a qualm if he caught a single trace of beer on his breath on duty._"What else is new?" |
35040 | Are not some divisions harder to beat than others? |
35040 | Are there aristocrats and middle class people, for instance,a number of persons have said to me,"and does position count for much?" |
35040 | Are you going to look hard out West? |
35040 | Are you not at all to blame for your present condition? |
35040 | Bound West? |
35040 | Did you notice any one on the stairway? |
35040 | Do all the fellows come from around here? |
35040 | Do n''t the railroad people trouble you? |
35040 | Do n''t you have to make regular reports to any one? |
35040 | Do n''t you think you would probably be more successful if you raided them oftener? |
35040 | Do the police trouble you much? |
35040 | Do you ever shift to other roads? |
35040 | Do you see much of the detectives? |
35040 | Do you think the company wants it stopped? |
35040 | Does n''t the government get after you? |
35040 | Get up, will ye? |
35040 | Got much fall money? |
35040 | Got the hot- foot at the other camp, I guess? |
35040 | How did he learn to write? 35040 How did it happen?" |
35040 | How do you manage? |
35040 | How do you spend your time? |
35040 | How do you think things would go if you men were organised and had a chief? 35040 How long do you generally keep a job?" |
35040 | How many are in the push? |
35040 | How many tramps are riding trains? |
35040 | How much of a loaf do you have between jobs? |
35040 | How your cells? |
35040 | I''m your deef''n''dum''brother, see? 35040 Is there much robbing of cars going on?" |
35040 | On the road, Jack? |
35040 | Pan out pretty well? |
35040 | Peter- work,[2] o''course, what d''ye think? |
35040 | S''pose y''ai n''t got a piece o''wood with a little brimstone on the end of it, have ye? |
35040 | They''re not bad fellas, are they? |
35040 | Was he born that way? |
35040 | What do you do there? |
35040 | What do you think ought to be done to keep tramps off trains? |
35040 | What is the main graft? |
35040 | What kind of work is that? |
35040 | Who are they? |
35040 | Who first thought of organising the big push? |
35040 | Who is responsible for what you do? |
35040 | Why do n''t you try to break up the tramp camps? |
35040 | A question that I was continually putting to myself when meeting the"professional"was: What made him choose such a career? |
35040 | Ai n''t that right, eh?" |
35040 | Can he ever get well?" |
35040 | Have you no manners?" |
35040 | How long do you think I was paying him back? |
35040 | How many crooks get what they ought to in this country? |
35040 | I had hardly taken a seat on one of the ties, and said,"How are you?" |
35040 | Is it because they are ignorant of what goes on, or merely because they are indifferent? |
35040 | Is that Christianity? |
35040 | Is that the way religion is going to make you and me any better? |
35040 | Meanwhile, however, what has become of the protected thief? |
35040 | Moral issues have not been at stake; the thief has not stolen from the officer, and why should the latter not be friendly when they meet? |
35040 | Now, what''s it going to cost me?" |
35040 | One very well informed detective, for instance, said:"Do you mean the whole push, or just the A Number One guns? |
35040 | See?" |
35040 | See?" |
35040 | They went immediately to the cells we had chosen, and, seeing that our things were in them, said:"These your togs in here?" |
35040 | WHO CONSTITUTE OUR CRIMINAL CLASSES? |
35040 | Was it, or was n''t it, the intention that outcasts were to have religion? |
35040 | What are they to do? |
35040 | What the devil''ud become o''the world if we refused to work? |
35040 | Would better work be done?" |
35040 | Ye''ve got a match, ye say?" |
4786 | And how old are you? |
4786 | Are you married? |
4786 | Awe,drawled the Corporal,"what''s the use o''goin''t''all that trouble? |
4786 | Before the Americans, perhaps? |
4786 | But is this the man that shot you? |
4786 | By the way, I suppose you''re well armed? |
4786 | Can he read? |
4786 | Can you read and write? |
4786 | Check Number? |
4786 | Do his parents live on the Zone? |
4786 | Do you do any work besides your own housework? |
4786 | Does n''t your husband live here? |
4786 | Does the puente romano still cross the river? |
4786 | Doing? 4786 Emm-- What military service have you had?" |
4786 | Er-- would you be kind enough to tell us where we can find this Gatun dam we''ve heard so much about? |
4786 | Ever done police duty? |
4786 | Have n''t you a commissary- book with it in? |
4786 | Hell''s fire, no? |
4786 | How long have you lived on the Canal Zone? |
4786 | How old is he? |
4786 | How old_ I_ are? 4786 I certainly am,"replied the steward;"What do you think I''m down here for, me health?" |
4786 | Is he a Jamaican? |
4786 | Is he married? |
4786 | Is he older than you? |
4786 | Is you a American? 4786 Mac"desert? |
4786 | Married? |
4786 | Name? 4786 Name?" |
4786 | No? |
4786 | Poseeton? |
4786 | Say, I hope you''re not nervous? |
4786 | Senor,I asked,"did you go to the dance in Miraflores last Saturday night with this youth?" |
4786 | Shall I borrow a gun, Lieutenant? |
4786 | Since when have you lived in this house? |
4786 | Some ambitious foreman,I mused, and went on with my queries:"Occupation?" |
4786 | Station commander there? |
4786 | The Admiral''spatent- leather shoes-- but why go into painful details? |
4786 | Well then where the devil did you first land after you were born? |
4786 | Well what nationality was your father? |
4786 | Well, about how old? |
4786 | Well, then this is the man that shot you? |
4786 | Well, what country are you a subject of? |
4786 | What color is he? |
4786 | What dat, boss? |
4786 | What kind of work does he do? |
4786 | What man? |
4786 | What the devil are you doing there? |
4786 | What time does that 6:35 train leave? |
4786 | What you doing, boys? |
4786 | What''s his metal- check number? |
4786 | What''s the sense o''me tryin''to chew the fat in French? |
4786 | What? |
4786 | When and where? |
4786 | When did you come to Panama? |
4786 | Where you born, boy? |
4786 | Who''s talking? |
4786 | Why do n''t you learn it? |
4786 | You ai n''t no American? |
4786 | You''ll want to catch the 5:25 back to Corozal? |
4786 | ''Ad yer census taken yet?" |
4786 | ( Evasively)"Work? |
4786 | --"Can you read?" |
4786 | A forerunner of what, in a few brief years, will have happened to all the Zone-- nay, is not this the way of life itself? |
4786 | About sixty, say?" |
4786 | An absinthe frappe? |
4786 | And just how much does that cost-- here? |
4786 | And what is the retail price of that particular drink?" |
4786 | And what was my reward? |
4786 | And you, Flossie? |
4786 | And"Mac"? |
4786 | At any rate-- On our cards, after the query"Color?" |
4786 | But could it ever be? |
4786 | But how if you were one of those who blew in on the heels of the last Frenchman and have been eating it ever since? |
4786 | But what mattered such small losses? |
4786 | But wo n''t the factory superintendent also be anxious to make a"record"? |
4786 | By the way, are not you who read curious to know, even as I for long years wondered, where a detective wears his badge? |
4786 | Census taken yet?" |
4786 | Commonplace? |
4786 | Could he set him down as he had many a mere red- blooded person and thereby perhaps establish a precedent that might result in his own mortification? |
4786 | D, who is a quartermaster at$ 225, may be on"How- are- you- old- man?" |
4786 | Did I not know that reimbursements were ONLY for"liquor and cigars, cab or boat hire, and meals away from home?" |
4786 | Do n''t know where you were born?" |
4786 | Does Mrs. Smith fear that Mrs. Jones next door will succeed in pumping out of me that capital bit of information? |
4786 | Enumerator( on a venture):"What''s the man''s name?" |
4786 | From then on each dived in to snatch his prey and, dragging him to the nearest free space, began in some language or other:"Where d''ye live?" |
4786 | Graft? |
4786 | Had your census taken yet?" |
4786 | How can I have used that word in connection with his incomparable performance? |
4786 | How did that happen?" |
4786 | How eber yo gon''l''arn talk proper lika dat, yo tell me?" |
4786 | How they framin''up? |
4786 | I crowded close, caught his words, memorized the few questions, and there was I with my"Poomaynes?" |
4786 | I exclaimed--"and read those?" |
4786 | I set them to staring and chattering by some simple remark about their birthplace:"Fine view from the Paseo del Rastro, eh?" |
4786 | If ah does any work? |
4786 | Is he a laborer?" |
4786 | Is that all we got for nine years''work and half a billion dollars?" |
4786 | Now it needs no deep detective experience to know that in such cases you naturally begin with,"Well, what you going to drink, girls?" |
4786 | Now then, how many children?" |
4786 | Now your name?" |
4786 | Now, Henry, what is your room- mate''s name?" |
4786 | Now, Mamie, what''s that you''re drinking? |
4786 | Of the two great divisions among them, Barbadians seemed more well- mannered than Jamaicans-- or was it merely more subtle hypocrisy? |
4786 | Or attempt to give a hint of life on the Canal Zone without mentioning the most conspicuous factor in it? |
4786 | Restless- eyed black men who answered to their names only at the question"Cummun t''appelle?" |
4786 | Sabe frisked? |
4786 | Self- appointed interpreter of the same shade;"He as''how old is yo?" |
4786 | Should even a detective work on such a Sunday? |
4786 | Suppose the doortender should refuse to honor it and force me to impress upon him the importance of the Z. P.--without a gun? |
4786 | The negro:"Why, boss, ca n''t a man chastize his wife when she desarves and needs it?" |
4786 | To a Barbadian woman of forty:"Just you and your daughter live here?" |
4786 | To a Dominican woman of fifty- two, toothless and pitted with small- pox:"Are you married?" |
4786 | To a Jamaican youth;"How many people live in this room?" |
4786 | To a six- foot black giant working as night- hostler of steam- shovels:"Well, Josiah, I suppose you''re a Jamaican?" |
4786 | Variations on the above might fill many pages:"How old are you?" |
4786 | Was it not stated that all applications for reimbursement required an exact itemized account of each separate expenditure, with the price of each? |
4786 | Was this then police talk? |
4786 | Wet? |
4786 | Wha''fo''yo as''all dem questions, mahster?" |
4786 | What more striking than a shining- black waiter strutting proudly about under the name of Levi McCarthy? |
4786 | What more then could I do than set down such items as:"May 12, Liquor, investigation, Panama--$6.50?" |
4786 | What was my duty when the friends handed him some money and a package of cigars? |
4786 | What ye having?" |
4786 | When did you move here?" |
4786 | When he ordered the driver to halt before the"Panazone"that he might speak to some friends should I fiercely countermand the order? |
4786 | When the prisoner turned to remark it was a warm day should I warn him that anything he said would be used against him? |
4786 | Where would you go, think you, to buy that new farm? |
4786 | Why should not one census, like one baptism, suffice for a life- time? |
4786 | Why, damn you, I suppose you''re getting your rake- off too?" |
4786 | Yet could he stretch a shade-- or several shades-- and set him down as"white"? |
4786 | and crying instead:"Here, what the devil is going on here?" |
4786 | and give their age only to those who open wide their mouths and cry,"Caje- vous?" |
4786 | and"Padremaynos?" |
4786 | steward and complained that his waiter did not serve him reasonably:"Well,"sneered the steward,"I guess you did n''t come across?" |
4786 | tracks to shout in at the yard- master''s window,"How soon y''got anything goin''up the line?" |
30832 | A what? |
30832 | And have''em coming after me again and again until they catch me? 30832 And you''ve been in operation for how long?" |
30832 | And you? |
30832 | Another one of your zanies, eh? |
30832 | Anything extra you want, Roy? |
30832 | Burke''s which, sir? |
30832 | But it just does n''t sound right, does it? 30832 But why would he want to make it look like a kidnaping instead of... of what it was? |
30832 | But, man, it is n''t magic we''re discussing, is it? |
30832 | By the way, am I wrong in assuming that Nestor will not get your psychotherapy treatment? |
30832 | Can I see ya, Inspector? 30832 Can you stand up?" |
30832 | Cigarette? |
30832 | Could I talk to you outside, Inspector Royall? |
30832 | D''you mind if I ask some questions? |
30832 | Did he talk much? |
30832 | Did he tell you what happened? |
30832 | Did the Commissioner give you a Special Badge? |
30832 | Did you know that Brownlee was an anthropologist before he turned to psychology? 30832 Do you figure this as a sex- degenerate case, Inspector?" |
30832 | Do you know something? 30832 Do you know the fat guy?" |
30832 | Do you remember that, a couple of centuries ago, the laws of some countries provided the perfect punishment for pickpockets and purse- snatchers? |
30832 | Hammerlock Smith? 30832 Has he ever been in here before?" |
30832 | Have a good trip across? |
30832 | He''s one of your zanies, too, is n''t he? 30832 Hurt? |
30832 | Inspector, since when it is against the law to ask a couple of guys how come they''re following you? 30832 Is there anywhere we can talk?" |
30832 | Manny the Moog? |
30832 | Noise? |
30832 | Notice anything about his voice? |
30832 | Now what? |
30832 | Now, a zany who was that badly crippled--? |
30832 | Now, just to clear the air, what_ is_ it? |
30832 | O.K., Sam? |
30832 | Running short, eh? 30832 Sam, you can sit on this one for a while, huh? |
30832 | Sam,I said wearily,"are you going to give me a lecture on police methods?" |
30832 | Shirley''s father? 30832 Sidney Manewiscz?" |
30832 | Sorry to bother you during office hours, but could I borrow fifty? 30832 The guy who fingered you for the boys?" |
30832 | The next question is: Where? |
30832 | Think he''ll testify? |
30832 | Was he drunk? |
30832 | What about Joey Partridge? |
30832 | What about the time of death? |
30832 | What about this kid he accosted in the bar? 30832 What are you doing here, Manny?" |
30832 | What did you do to his hands? |
30832 | What do you think? |
30832 | What else we got, Inspector? |
30832 | What is it, Lieutenant? |
30832 | What was he drinking? |
30832 | What will you do to this Hammerlock Smith, then? |
30832 | What''ll it be? |
30832 | What''s it all about, Joey? |
30832 | What''s that? |
30832 | What''s the trouble, Manny? |
30832 | Where''s your husband? |
30832 | Who else could it be? 30832 Why do you say that?" |
30832 | Would you give me the key to your apartment, Mrs. Ebbermann? 30832 Yeah?" |
30832 | Yes? |
30832 | You Lee Darcey? |
30832 | You hurt, Joey? |
30832 | You mean he''s a real English Duke? |
30832 | You still awake, Dad? 30832 You sure it''s the Donahue girl?" |
30832 | *****"Do you remember Manny the Moog? |
30832 | And have I told you that you''ll be invited to the wedding?" |
30832 | And how long would it be before he obligingly hammered the life out of his young victim so that we could put him away permanently? |
30832 | And that puts the police in a hell of a position, does n''t it? |
30832 | And where does that put today''s psychotherapy? |
30832 | And why did n''t she tell her mother where she was going?" |
30832 | As Inspector Kleek had said, we get''em eventually......._ But at what cost? |
30832 | As soon as the door closed behind Dr. Brownlee and Manewiscz I said:"You two brought the witness in, too, did n''t you?" |
30832 | But if you clip the_ other_ wing, what happens? |
30832 | Can I give the groom away?" |
30832 | Can I ride with you? |
30832 | Can you advance the fifty?" |
30832 | Could he have lured her away, do you think?" |
30832 | D''you agree?" |
30832 | Did you ever see what happens when you lock a claustrophobe up in a dark closet-- the mad, unreasoning, uncontrollable panic of absolute terror? |
30832 | Do you live on the seventh floor?__ Yes, I do.__ Then we''re neighbors. |
30832 | Do you live with your mommie and daddy?__ Just my mommie. |
30832 | Does Shirley have a key to your apartment?" |
30832 | Duke, did you say?" |
30832 | Ebbermann?" |
30832 | Had he spoken to her in the elevator? |
30832 | Have I got it straight so far?" |
30832 | Have you been betting on the stickball teams again?" |
30832 | He thought it over for a while, then said:"Just what is it you do to men like that? |
30832 | He''s crippled, right? |
30832 | How can you be so sure he''ll never hurt anyone again?" |
30832 | How d''ya like that?" |
30832 | How did he get her away? |
30832 | How long ago was this? |
30832 | How many teenage boys had been frightened or whipped into doing as he told them and then been too ashamed and sick with themselves to say anything? |
30832 | How old? |
30832 | How''s Mary Ellen?" |
30832 | Hurt bad?" |
30832 | I could see him, but he could n''t see me, so I said:"What''s the trouble, Joey?" |
30832 | I said,"Darcey, if he comes back in here... let''s see-- Can you shut off that big sign out front from behind the bar?" |
30832 | I turned and said:"Want some action, Your Grace?" |
30832 | I turned to Brownlee and said:"Which reminds me-- what''s going to be the disposition on the Hammerlock Smith case?" |
30832 | Inspector Acrington? |
30832 | It''s a hell of a great system, is n''t it? |
30832 | Let''s go check the files, huh?" |
30832 | Loitering with intent to commit a nuisance?" |
30832 | Look, Your Grace, you know what''s done to keep a captive wild duck from flying away?" |
30832 | Now, you were saying?" |
30832 | O.K., Inspector?" |
30832 | O.K.?" |
30832 | O.K.?" |
30832 | O.K.?" |
30832 | On the other hand--"Look, Lieutenant, you have n''t said anything to the newsmen yet, have you?" |
30832 | Practically cut and dried, is n''t it?" |
30832 | Remember me, Dad?" |
30832 | Right?" |
30832 | Shall we go on with our pub crawling?" |
30832 | Sit down, wo n''t you?" |
30832 | The basement? |
30832 | The foyer itself? |
30832 | The little fellow who was brought in yesterday?" |
30832 | The roof? |
30832 | Then what? |
30832 | Understand?" |
30832 | Want to come along?" |
30832 | Want to come down here and pick it up?" |
30832 | Was it magic this morning when both you and I had a hunch that little Shirley was_ not_ in the park, in spite of the way it looked? |
30832 | Was it magic when we eliminated, without even searching, every spot but the place where she actually was?" |
30832 | We know that ninety per cent of the men on that list right there are going to be convicted of a crime of violence inside the next five years, right?" |
30832 | We know what they are, do n''t we? |
30832 | We''ve got all these characters down on the books, do n''t we? |
30832 | What is the technique used?" |
30832 | What would you charge''em with? |
30832 | What''s another victim more or less, as long as we get the killer?" |
30832 | What''s he up for?" |
30832 | What''s his record?" |
30832 | Where are you? |
30832 | Where is he?" |
30832 | Where, then? |
30832 | Where_ are_ you?" |
30832 | Why do n''t we just go out and arrest them all right now? |
30832 | Why fool around with assault and battery charges when we can wait for him to murder somebody and then lock him up for good, eh, Sam? |
30832 | Why should she? |
30832 | Will you teach me?" |
30832 | Will your cure work?" |
30832 | You want to come down here and look over the scene, or you want to go to the morgue? |
30832 | You want to listen?" |
30832 | You''ll have the Commissioner call me?" |
30832 | You''ll prefer charges, Joey?" |
30832 | [ Illustration]"All right if I let Manny the Moog go, Roy?" |
47445 | ''Want to set my barn afire with your old pipe, do you?'' 47445 ''When did you get out of jail?'' |
47445 | And you do n''t mind, honey? |
47445 | But I''m afraid it looks like imposing on your good nature just a little? |
47445 | But do n''t you think this is ever so much nicer? |
47445 | Can I make my son or daughter learn Yiddish? |
47445 | Did you ever know a man named Gunther? |
47445 | Do you know that a few men, comparatively, have almost changed the nature of the country and village population? 47445 Does anybody look in my pockets nights?" |
47445 | Gentlemen,said the judge, turning toward the jury,"have you agreed upon a verdict?" |
47445 | Guarantee it? 47445 HOLY MOSES"RISES? |
47445 | Have you agreed upon a verdict? |
47445 | Have you got any idea of how the professional conducts himself on the road? 47445 I do n''t like to presume on your good nature, but I know you wo n''t object to a small box of candy?" |
47445 | I have married two wives; what will happen? |
47445 | I''m a perfect lady, ai n''t I, Honey? |
47445 | Is that your staple article of diet? |
47445 | Is the Stool Pigeon in? |
47445 | Old man, do n''t you know it''s Thanksgivin''day? 47445 Say, now,"continued the man,"can you name me one single newspaper in the state of New York that felt sure of Roosevelt''s election as governor? |
47445 | Shall I be a conductor? |
47445 | Shall I be a lady- figure? |
47445 | Shall I be a street cleaner? |
47445 | Shall I be an actor? |
47445 | Shall I be married in court? |
47445 | Shall I buy the goods? |
47445 | Shall I sue my partner? |
47445 | Shall I take my husband into the store as a partner? |
47445 | Shall I take my wife into the store as a partner? |
47445 | Shall my children play with Christians? |
47445 | Shall we have our cigars and coffee here or in th''drawin''room? |
47445 | Suppose I pay for the article instead of the newspaper? |
47445 | Very plausible, but where are these guarantee companies? |
47445 | What are you going to do about it? |
47445 | What is the explanation? 47445 What would be the broker''s fee?" |
47445 | What''s it for? |
47445 | What? |
47445 | Where did he get it? |
47445 | Who are they? |
47445 | Why do n''t I give it up and settle down in city or village and become a respectable member of the community? |
47445 | Why is a sailor a sailor? 47445 Will my partner sue me?" |
47445 | Will the bank fail? |
47445 | Will the landlord put me out? |
47445 | Wot''s de matter wit''fixin''one up on meself? 47445 Yes-- what of it?" |
47445 | You got what you asked for, did n''t you? |
47445 | You remember the speech of Mark Anthony,he said;"how he produced a tremendous effect with the robe of the great CÃ ¦ sar? |
47445 | You wo n''t mind, honey, if I take a pie home, will you? |
47445 | ''Are any of these concerns promising dividends of 50 per cent and such to be depended on''?" |
47445 | 11:20 a. m.: Said he:"Where is my sin? |
47445 | ARE WE FOLLOWING ROME TO THE PIT? |
47445 | ARE YOU A GRAFTER? |
47445 | And did you ever see the same small boy walking half the distance to get a newspaper for his father? |
47445 | And is it right to thus lure children when adults know that their pennies more than pay for what they get-- premiums and all? |
47445 | And what does it mean? |
47445 | And what is the penalty? |
47445 | And what of the love attachment? |

6569 | For you know, dear Lena,she said,"your father and brother said for charity, did n''t they? |
6569 | Hallo, Neville,he said;"what is the matter? |
6569 | Have I made a mistake as to my own house and found my way into a private insane asylum? |
6569 | Have you lost a letter, Harley? |
6569 | Have you sent it home? |
6569 | Henderson, are you ill? |

6569 | How could I tell her such a thing? 6569 How much would it cost for me to take music lessons?" |
6569 | How was that? 6569 I have not seen it,"or,"I have not found it,"was all the response he had to make to the inquiries of,"Have you heard anything of your letter?" |
6569 | I say, Neville,he continued,"you know I did not mean to keep the money, do n''t you?" |
6569 | I say, Neville,said Raymond Stewart, meeting Percy not half an hour afterward,"are n''t you going to stand treat out of that fortune of yours?" |
6569 | I say, Percy,said Raymond Stewart,"you hav''n''t made over that hundred dollars to Flagg, have you? |
6569 | I want to tell you, Bessie,she said, falteringly,"but you will not tell any one, will you? |
6569 | If Hannah or Letitia come, shall I tell them to put it away? |
6569 | Is he the kind of a one-- a banker, I mean,said Hannah,"that would give you a note for gold-- golden guineas?" |
6569 | Is n''t he invited? |
6569 | It must be so, else why this wild excitement? 6569 It will not lodge in my pocket,"said Seabrooke;"how can you carry such a sum of money in such an insecure place, Neville? |
6569 | Lena, dear,said Bessie,"is your brother Russell worse?" |
6569 | Lena, is it Percy? |
6569 | Maggie and Bessie, you are not just going, are you? |
6569 | Maggie and Bessie,she said, with more animation than her little friends had ever seen her show before,"what do you think has happened? |
6569 | Mamma,she called,"is it almost time to rise?" |
6569 | Master Percy-- none of''em is n''t hill? |
6569 | My child,said her father,"what can you possibly want of a hundred dollars? |
6569 | Neville,he said to him one day,"have you written to your parents about this matter?" |
6569 | Oh, I forgot, how are the feet? 6569 Oh, I say, Bess, you are going to begin your music lessons at Easter, are you not?" |
6569 | Oh, did you tell him? 6569 Oh, no, my dear not Utica, no indeed, not Utica-- did you not know? |
6569 | Or is it of a private nature? |
6569 | Sending what-- the weight? |
6569 | So it was your friends and relatives, then, who sent the check for the church to my father, and the Christmas box to my sister? |
6569 | Sylvandale,she repeated;"do you know Sylvandale?" |
6569 | That was good luck, was n''t it? |
6569 | That would take two quarters and a half a quarter to make up a hundred dollars, would it not, papa? |
6569 | Then who''s going to be sentinel at evening study? |
6569 | Turned stingy all of a sudden, eh? |
6569 | Was Lena delirious at any time while she was so very ill? |
6569 | Well, I declare, Mary Richards, you ai n''t no great hand to talk, but when you do, you just do it beautiful; now do n''t she, Jennie? 6569 What are you going to do about this?" |
6569 | What can I ever do for you? |
6569 | What can we do? |
6569 | What did I come for? |
6569 | What did I do? 6569 What do you all say?" |
6569 | What do you mean? 6569 What have you done with it?" |
6569 | What is all this, Miss Trevor? |
6569 | What is in that little woman''s mind? 6569 What is it, my dear?" |
6569 | What is it? 6569 What is the matter, Maggie?" |
6569 | What is your sister''s name? 6569 What will you do?" |
6569 | What''s all this fuss about putting the letter away, anyway? |
6569 | What''s the matter, Lena? |
6569 | Where have you been? 6569 Where have you met Lena''s old nurse before? |
6569 | Where is Lewis Flagg? |
6569 | Where is it, then? |
6569 | Who then? 6569 Whom do you accuse?" |
6569 | Whose are these? |
6569 | Why do you not? |
6569 | Why should Uncle Horace worry himself about Hannah''s money? |
6569 | Why, that will build a whole new church; will it not, Uncle Horace? |
6569 | Why? |
6569 | Why? |
6569 | Wo n''t you look in your trunk-- carefully-- before you lock it? |
6569 | Yes,answered Charlie,"and-- Seabrooke--""Well, what is it?" |
6569 | Yes,answered Seabrooke in a stern, cold tone,"did you say you saw some one put it there?" |
6569 | You do n''t suppose any one is going to steal it, do you? |
6569 | You have n''t lost it? |
6569 | You here in this cold draught, Miss Elsie; an''what''ll Hannah say, I wonder? |
6569 | You remember the checks papa and Russell sent me? |
6569 | You say I took back my money without asking you for it, and hunted it out from your places? |
6569 | You''av''n''t''ad hany bad news, Miss Lena? |
6569 | You''re a nice fellow to call yourself a gentleman, are''n''t you? |
6569 | _ Who_ saw Flagg do this thing? |
6569 | --knowing of the secret fund for future expenses, the story having been told to him by his nephews,--"have you gold of which you wish to dispose? |
6569 | An''you maybe''ave seen my boy, Master Percy Neville, my boy that I nursed?" |
6569 | And now, how could she make up her mind to sacrifice this cherished sum even for the reckless, selfish boy whom she loved? |
6569 | And why should she have sent the money unless she had known that Percy was in sore need? |
6569 | And you maybe know Dr. Leacraft''s school? |
6569 | And, will it be believed? |
6569 | Are none of you interested?" |
6569 | Are you ready to abide by my terms?" |
6569 | Ashton''s?" |
6569 | Bless your heart, how are the feet? |
6569 | But Lewis suddenly flashed up and answered impudently:"How are we to know that the money was in that letter?" |
6569 | But how comes it that you are not at Miss Ashton''s? |
6569 | But if they had known what followed after Gracie had been left alone in the room where she had so disgraced herself, how would they have felt then? |
6569 | But mamma-- could I not tell mamma?" |
6569 | But was it certain that this responsibility lay solely between these two boys? |
6569 | But what is this excitement you are speaking of, Maggie?" |
6569 | But who is likely to win it,--you wo n''t, of course, whatever your chances may have been in the beginning-- any one of your chums? |
6569 | Can it be that our Percy is your young cavalier, Miss Trevor?" |
6569 | Did you forget that?" |
6569 | Did you know that Bessie had begun to write poetry?" |
6569 | Do you comprehend me? |
6569 | Do you not agree with me, father?" |
6569 | Do you think it is possible, now that Russell is better?" |
6569 | Do you think it possible,"an idea occurring to him,"that she is troubled about losing the chance to win this prize?" |
6569 | Do you think it would be called charity to do that when the person was in trouble only because he had been-- had done very wrong?" |
6569 | Do you wish to hear more of this, dear; or are you tired?" |
6569 | Do you, Bessie?" |
6569 | Does she think-- yes-- think that the money has not gone? |
6569 | For was not her beloved nursling in danger? |
6569 | Gladys?" |
6569 | Had Percy been guilty of possessing himself of his own property by such unjustifiable means? |
6569 | Had Seabrooke lost the money? |
6569 | Hal, what was that for? |
6569 | Has he, Flagg? |
6569 | Have you been troubling yourself, dear, over that secret?" |
6569 | Have you some new charity at heart?" |
6569 | Havn''t you something you could sell? |
6569 | He''ll give it to you; it''s only twenty pounds, Lena, and what is twenty pounds to him? |
6569 | How could I?" |
6569 | How could you, Percy?" |
6569 | How would that do now? |
6569 | I say, Percy,"aloud,"why do n''t you put that money into Mr. Merton''s hands till you are going home?" |
6569 | I shall lock it up, I can tell you; and what if you tell me not to return it to you till we are breaking up?" |
6569 | I suppose it would n''t do, would it, Miss Ashton?" |
6569 | Is Lena worse?" |
6569 | Is it possible he is your brother?" |
6569 | Is n''t he the meanest fellow in the world to be so set upon having the doctor knowing about last night? |
6569 | Is n''t it rather shabby after what the doctor said to us? |
6569 | It had been started by Raymond Stewart, who had said:"How do we know that some one else has not been meddling with that money? |
6569 | It would be quite true, would it not, to say that she had done so well at the first that we all thought it fair for her to have it?" |
6569 | Leacraft?" |
6569 | Lena seemed to be considering for a moment; then she said, evidently with a great effort,--"Do you think she would come if I wrote and asked her? |
6569 | Let me see; where is it? |
6569 | Lewis, where is that letter? |
6569 | Maggie Bradford or Bessie, or those?" |
6569 | Maggie, every night when you say your prayers, do you thank God that Mrs. Neville is not your mother? |
6569 | May I know?" |
6569 | Might I ask the cause of this more than usually effusive greeting?" |
6569 | Not even Maggie?" |
6569 | Or was one of their number an actual thief? |
6569 | Or-- I do not like very much to ask you, but what can a fellow in such a scrape do?--couldn''t you ask Uncle Horace to let you have it? |
6569 | Percy Neville''s money?" |
6569 | Shall I read this, Lena; do you care to hear it?" |
6569 | Shall I write?" |
6569 | She roused to a bewildered half- consciousness of something unusual; what was it, good or ill? |
6569 | Should he tell him? |
6569 | Then after a moment''s hesitation, she said,"Will you ask her to come, Maggie?" |
6569 | Then, turning to the little old lady,"How do you do, Miss Trevor? |
6569 | There now, here, child,--why, bless your''eart, Miss Lena, what is it?" |
6569 | WHO WINS? |
6569 | Was it a letter of importance?" |
6569 | Was it possible that there was one among the circle who would do such a thing? |
6569 | Was this a trap? |
6569 | Was this indeed all the impression made upon Percy by his late peril, all the shame and regret he could feel? |
6569 | What ails you?" |
6569 | What could it all mean? |
6569 | What could they do? |
6569 | What do you mean?" |
6569 | What do you say, ma''am? |
6569 | What had happened before she went to sleep? |
6569 | What have you been doing that they are forfeited, for I know papa promised them to you after Easter?" |
6569 | What say you?" |
6569 | What should she do now? |
6569 | What woke you?" |
6569 | What''s she so secret habout it for?" |
6569 | Who be you goin''to, by your leave?" |
6569 | Who could have been aware of her extreme need of it? |
6569 | Who could have known, thought Bessie, how very much she wished for this sum of money? |
6569 | Who could have sent her that money? |
6569 | Who touched your things?" |
6569 | Who was it? |
6569 | Who was it?" |
6569 | Who was it?" |
6569 | Who would have believed it of him, weak, miserable coward that he is? |
6569 | Who''d have thought Neville was such a Miss Nancy, such a coward? |
6569 | Why did I come back to it, back, yes, back?" |
6569 | Why did you not come before? |
6569 | Why not make a clean breast of it, Percy, and have it over? |
6569 | Why not make use of the very way in which this well timed gift had come to her and send it to Lena anonymously? |
6569 | Why should she have sent them to Percy? |
6569 | Why?" |
6569 | Will you come into the junior recitation- room?" |
6569 | Would Lena feel like having Gracie come here? |
6569 | You hardly, I suppose, can obtain such a sum of money except by application to them; or have you some other friend who will help you?" |

6569 | she asked, coming to her sister''s side;"is your throat sore? |
6569 | what is this?" |
6569 | what''s the matter? |
55847 | And sometimes you allow poor women to have coal on credit, and you lose in that way? |
55847 | And sometimes you get a tenant that does not pay up? |
55847 | And when your daughter goes out, she will wear them-- in fact, you want a pair between you? |
55847 | And you want a pair that will fit either of you? |
55847 | Any other of your children paint? |
55847 | Are n''t you going to make the fire up for yourself? 55847 Burglary?" |
55847 | But how do you get them all to this size and colour? |
55847 | But what good is it now? |
55847 | But you lose your tenant sometimes, and the rooms are empty? |
55847 | Did you get what suited you? |
55847 | Did you have buttons or lace- up? |
55847 | Did you know they had''come down''in life? |
55847 | Do they often have letters? |
55847 | Do you buy cinders by weight or measure? |
55847 | Do you earn any money? |
55847 | Do you ever buy a hundredweight of coal? |
55847 | Do you get full weight from the trolly- man? |
55847 | Do you know what''s in these boxes? |
55847 | Do you know, sir, that you are speaking to an officer''s daughter? 55847 Do you see that quite half is dirt?" |
55847 | Does he go to a school of art? |
55847 | Fetch a policeman, will you? 55847 Fit you all right?" |
55847 | Got all your conduct marks? |
55847 | Have you a mother? |
55847 | Have you any framed pictures? |
55847 | Have you any sons and daughters? 55847 Have you brought my rent?" |
55847 | How are you going to live? |
55847 | How can he do machining if he goes out painting every day? |
55847 | How did you get my address? |
55847 | How do I know you have been in prison? |
55847 | How is it,I was asked by a critical lady,"that your poor women let their dresses drag on the pavement and crossings? |
55847 | How long has he been dead? |
55847 | How long has he lain like this? |
55847 | How long have you been a widow? |
55847 | How long have you been in? |
55847 | How long have you lived here? |
55847 | How long have you lived in this house? |
55847 | How long is it since you had a new pair of boots? |
55847 | How many do they receive a week? |
55847 | How many fires can you light with your farthing bundle of wood? |
55847 | How many fires will your cinders make? |
55847 | How many more? |
55847 | How much coal do you give for a penny? |
55847 | How much did you have altogether? |
55847 | How much do you give for a quarter? |
55847 | How much do you give for a ton? |
55847 | How much have you got here? |
55847 | How much money did you get by it? |
55847 | How much rent do you pay? |
55847 | How much rent do you pay? |
55847 | How much will that cost? |
55847 | How old is he? |
55847 | How tall? |
55847 | I ca n''t help that, can I? 55847 I suppose he has some framed pictures now?" |
55847 | I suppose he will not have a fresh supply in till he has cleared the last? |
55847 | I suppose you alter your plan of your building sometimes? |
55847 | I suppose you have not restored it? |
55847 | I wonder why He does that? |
55847 | In what way do you want me to help you? |
55847 | Is your father alive? |
55847 | John, can you come down and attend to the shop? |
55847 | Not half a dollar? |
55847 | Now, tell me truly as you would a friend, what do you think about them? |
55847 | Now, tell me, where do they live? |
55847 | Of what use would they be? 55847 Oh, it is you, Downy, is it?" |
55847 | Oh,he said,"you noticed it, did you? |
55847 | Please, sir, can my daughter try them on? |
55847 | Potatoes? |
55847 | Shall you see them to- day? |
55847 | Tell me,I said to the widow,"how long have you lived in your present house?" |
55847 | Then when you go out you will wear them? |
55847 | They had a letter this morning? |
55847 | They work for you: why should they give you money? |
55847 | Well, old man, how are you? |
55847 | Well, what do you want? 55847 Well, what of that?" |
55847 | What are you for? |
55847 | What are you for? |
55847 | What are you in for? |
55847 | What can he prove? |
55847 | What did he say to you? |
55847 | What did he say? |
55847 | What did you write to Lady---- for? 55847 What do you mean by that?" |
55847 | What do you mean, sir? 55847 What do you think?" |
55847 | What does he do? |
55847 | What does he work at? |
55847 | What for? |
55847 | What have you done with it? |
55847 | What have you got in these boxes? |
55847 | What have you here? |
55847 | What is he doing now? |
55847 | What is it? |
55847 | What is that to you? |
55847 | What is your weight? |
55847 | What rent did you pay when you first came here? |
55847 | What rent do you pay? |
55847 | What size do you take? |
55847 | What was that? |
55847 | What was your husband? |
55847 | What young Brown? |
55847 | Whatever have you got there, hanging from the ceiling? |
55847 | When did they come in? |
55847 | When did you come out? |
55847 | Where are you living? |
55847 | Where did they sleep last night? |
55847 | Where has he gone to- day? |
55847 | Who is your landlord? |
55847 | Who is your witness? |
55847 | Who sleeps in that bed with him? |
55847 | Who sleeps in the kitchen? |
55847 | Why did you take them in? |
55847 | Why do n''t you go somewhere else? |
55847 | Why should I help you? 55847 Why, did n''t you speak to us like a man last Sunday?" |
55847 | Why? |
55847 | Why? |
55847 | Wo n''t you help me to get away from London? |
55847 | Would you help them if you could? |
55847 | Yes, sir; is it not a deep snow? |
55847 | You do n''t mean to say that, after speaking to us like a man, you wo n''t give me any money? |
55847 | You saved nothing for your lodging? |
55847 | You were a bank clerk, then? |
55847 | You wo n''t tell, will you? 55847 ''Has he given you notice?'' 55847 ''Yes; but how can I go just now? 55847 After the court was over he said to me:You thought me very ill- tempered this morning?" |
55847 | And when the mothers of those girls die, and a family of young children is left behind, what then? |
55847 | Are penniless, ignorant, and often gross young people to be engineered into promiscuous marriage without a protest? |
55847 | Are the poor to have no guidance? |
55847 | Are these and suchlike arrangements good enough for the poor? |
55847 | Are we to accept the principle that punishment must be in inverse ratio to the seriousness of the offence? |
55847 | As I stood over her, she looked up and said:"Are you Mr. Holmes? |
55847 | Brown?" |
55847 | But married men began to ask,"Why can not we have separation orders against habitually drunken wives?" |
55847 | But ought they to suffice in these enlightened days? |
55847 | But supposing the sea be decided upon, in what capacity are they to go? |
55847 | But what avails intermittent wood- chopping? |
55847 | But what becomes of this life? |
55847 | Can an irregular supply of envelope- addressing, continued for a few weeks, be considered work? |
55847 | Can not they influence her?" |
55847 | Can we expect them to exhibit the rarer qualities of human nature? |
55847 | Cure them of animal passion elemental in its intensity? |
55847 | Cure them of diseased minds and disordered brains, by keeping them for two or three years without drink? |
55847 | Did n''t you hear them?" |
55847 | Do people drink less? |
55847 | Do you say we are dirty? |
55847 | Does a lust for blood accompany an excess of the other passion in a woman of her temperament and characteristics? |
55847 | Had her wardrobe been sold to a dealer? |
55847 | Had the West End lady died? |
55847 | Have you no thought for them? |
55847 | He then left us, muttering as he went:"I wonder what he''s for?" |
55847 | Help to have us put out, would you? |
55847 | Here again I am tempted to philosophic inquiry, or to engage in some attempt to answer the question-- Are we as a nation becoming more dishonest? |
55847 | Holmes?" |
55847 | How are they to pay their rent if yours remains unpaid? |
55847 | How came it about that, after such a splendid beginning, they had come to such a deplorable end? |
55847 | How can I get rid of them? |
55847 | How can anyone help them when they are so deceitful? |
55847 | How can healthy, virtuous, and orderly children come from such unions? |
55847 | How many times have you picked up the pennies? |
55847 | How much did they give you this morning?" |
55847 | How much have you got left?" |
55847 | How old are you?" |
55847 | I accompanied them into the streets, and said to the old woman:"Where are you going to live?" |
55847 | I ask, Is not a procedure of this kind a grave misuse of the power of the courts? |
55847 | I did so, and she carefully closed the door, and then burst out:"What can I do with them? |
55847 | I said to him:"Tell me why you did this cruel deed?" |
55847 | I said,"You came out of prison a week ago, and paid a deposit on your room?" |
55847 | I said--"burglary? |
55847 | I saw sensual enjoyment written very largely about his lips and eyes; but I repeated his words,"A high old time?" |
55847 | I shook hands with him, and said:"What are you doing here?" |
55847 | I was speaking a short time ago to a young man whom I knew had been several times in prison, and asked him:"What are you in for this time?" |
55847 | If rogues are to be imprisoned at all, by what process of reasoning can it be argued that she ought to go free? |
55847 | If their teeth are not good, what does it matter? |
55847 | In one of my conversations with the brother, I suddenly asked him:"Have any of your relations been detained in lunatic asylums?" |
55847 | Is it any wonder that the children born of her have poor bodies and strange minds? |
55847 | Is it fair to place on a young and inexperienced girl the onus of deciding whether or not her would- be murderer shall be punished? |
55847 | Is the widespread evil that attaches to wholesale"separation"of no consequence? |
55847 | Is there any justice about it? |
55847 | Looking up sharply, he said:"No, He would have made me bigger, would n''t He? |
55847 | Moreover, if these"young gentry"are to be consigned in wholesale fashion to prison, will it lessen the evil? |
55847 | Of course not; what decent husband could? |
55847 | Of what use is casual bill- distributing? |
55847 | On what principle can she be called a first offender? |
55847 | Perhaps so; but what are the poor to drink? |
55847 | Ragged, are we? |
55847 | Shall we deny these youths the greatest blessing given to humanity-- discipline? |
55847 | She held it up, and tried to look at it; but she was not satisfied, for she said to her daughter, who was standing by:"Jane, is this a sovereign?" |
55847 | Sir, are you going?" |
55847 | The one cry, the one plea of all the poor who are to be ejected is:"Where are we to go? |
55847 | Then, as an afterthought, he said:"What''s the time?" |
55847 | Then, turning to me, he said half defiantly:"I suppose I can take her back home if I like?" |
55847 | To the elder one I said:"What are you going to do to bring a little grist to this mill?" |
55847 | To the younger one I said:"What are you going to do to help the finances?" |
55847 | To what class do they belong? |
55847 | To what, then, shall it be attributed? |
55847 | To- night I was a bit angry, and said,"Oh, is it you again? |
55847 | Was he a boy at all? |
55847 | Was there ever seen that which could eclipse these three old women in the art and virtue of saving? |
55847 | We shall be ill.""Have they paid you any rent?" |
55847 | What are my wife and children to do?" |
55847 | What can I do?'' |
55847 | What can be done for, or with, such women? |
55847 | What can be expected but ribaldry, indecency, disorder, and violence? |
55847 | What can big lads of this description do in such surroundings? |
55847 | What can such youths do? |
55847 | What could the Governor do with him? |
55847 | What did it all mean? |
55847 | What did it matter? |
55847 | What else could I do? |
55847 | What has happened to the old convict? |
55847 | What is the matter with them? |
55847 | What more pitiful sight can be imagined than the removal? |
55847 | What of the offspring that issue from these homes and these neighbourhoods? |
55847 | What place is there in strenuous life for such young fellows? |
55847 | What right have you to submit your children to the care of an abandoned woman? |
55847 | What will be the effect of a judgment like this? |
55847 | Whatever shall we do?" |
55847 | Where am I to live, then?" |
55847 | Where are the greasy, drunken old solicitors that haunted the precincts of police- courts twenty- five years ago? |
55847 | Where are the reddened faces that told of protracted debauch? |
55847 | Where are the"blue- bottle"noses now? |
55847 | Where could they put it all? |
55847 | Which will was to stand? |
55847 | Who can excel the people of our slums in true heroism? |
55847 | Who can reform them? |
55847 | Who can rescue them? |
55847 | Who can tell the anxiety that came upon Hettie in the expenditure of that money, while consumption increased its hold upon her? |
55847 | Who can tell the story of her brave life? |
55847 | Who cares? |
55847 | Who else could have done so much for them? |
55847 | Who told you we got drunk? |
55847 | Who would be nurse for the young man when the old man was gone? |
55847 | Why are they different from women generally? |
55847 | Why did you come so early? |
55847 | Why did you cut your bread in that way?" |
55847 | Why do n''t you go and do the work?" |
55847 | Will it be believed? |
55847 | Will you have one?" |
55847 | Will you kindly lend me the letter, that I may show it to my friend?" |
55847 | Would I excuse her? |
55847 | Would the methodical thrift of the old women give way in the face of such a temptation? |
55847 | Would the old man''s sentence expire before the young man died? |
55847 | Would the young man die before the old man''s time was up? |
55847 | and why has it caused the prisoner to commit a certain action? |
55847 | by volume, who would be a penny the worse? |
55847 | how many times have you put them down again? |
55847 | is that your name?" |
55847 | is there a stronger, more tragical, temptation than yours? |
46762 | ''Tis no harm to wish for them; is it, father? |
46762 | A vast improvement, certainly,said Mr. Stanton,"but you ca n''t manage the R''s yet, hey? |
46762 | And Willie? |
46762 | And Willie? |
46762 | And did you make it, too, Starr? |
46762 | And do n''t you feel a bit sorry for her, Maggie? |
46762 | And do n''t you feel very happy with us? |
46762 | And has Willie seen his mother''s face? |
46762 | And has my Bessie nothing to say? |
46762 | And how are the children off for clothes? |
46762 | And how came they in Aunt Patty''s pocket? |
46762 | And how has this come about? |
46762 | And how have you been this long time? |
46762 | And how much is that? |
46762 | And if at first you do n''t succeed, what then? |
46762 | And is he going to, mamma? |
46762 | And is there no one but this little mountebank to look after you? |
46762 | And is there nobody left to take care of you? |
46762 | And shall you ask her, mamma? |
46762 | And shall you call the book''The Happy Family''? |
46762 | And she says, very gentle,''Are you sick?'' 46762 And so you call him your policeman; do you? |
46762 | And then I shall see; sha''n''t I, father? 46762 And what are we to do, Tom?" |
46762 | And what burden have you, dearie? |
46762 | And what does Bessie say? |
46762 | And what if she was Aunt Patty? |
46762 | And what is that? |
46762 | And what is the news? |
46762 | And what is this wonderful favor? |
46762 | And what makes my princess so sad this evening? |
46762 | And what will it be about, Maggie? |
46762 | And when are you going to begin it? |
46762 | And who is the child that was lost? |
46762 | And who said I was going to scold her? |
46762 | And why did you not come to me for help? 46762 And will I see then, mother?" |
46762 | And will she yun away and never be seen again? |
46762 | And will your Aunt Patty be here when he comes, my dear lady? |
46762 | And you have no possible clew to who this person was, Richards? |
46762 | And you thought maybe your lost child was Mrs. Stanton''s granddaughter; did you? |
46762 | Are you going to lose your ears now you have found your eyes? 46762 Are you or papa going to do it, mamma?" |
46762 | Are you the little lady who was lost a couple of months ago? |
46762 | Are you tired of being shut up in the house so long, dear Midget? |
46762 | Aunt Patty,said Bessie at the breakfast- table the next morning,--"Aunt Patty, did you hear what Uncle Ruthven did for us?" |
46762 | Bessie,he said,"did I vex you a little last night?" |
46762 | But do you believe she gave up the grove for that, mamma? 46762 But have n''t we just as good a right to have them as anybody else?" |
46762 | But how came it into your hands? |
46762 | But if Uncle Yuthven did it for a favor to us, why did he not tell us first? |
46762 | But the corners are not half as sharp as they were once; are they, dear? |
46762 | But what caused the trouble? |
46762 | But what made her so unhappy, papa, and why were the boys so afraid of her? |
46762 | But why? |
46762 | But, Maggie, do n''t you think he makes pretty intimate? |
46762 | But, mamma, do you think that was a nice way? 46762 But_ this_ has no bright side; has it, mamma?" |
46762 | Can he go to Sunday- school when he''s blind? |
46762 | Can you find the book for me? |
46762 | Children,said Mr. Bradford, that evening,"who would like to hear a true story?" |
46762 | Course she has; how could she help it? |
46762 | Did n''t I mend it as nice as a new pin? |
46762 | Did not Aleck love her after the fire? |
46762 | Did she take them off your feet, Franky? |
46762 | Do n''t allow what? |
46762 | Do n''t you think you''d be very sad, sir, if you were blind? |
46762 | Do you not know me, Maggie? |
46762 | Do you remember Aunt Patty, my darling? |
46762 | Do you think she has a guilty conscience, Maggie? |
46762 | Do you want anything, Bessie? |
46762 | Does Mrs. Granby live here? |
46762 | Does anything trouble you? |
46762 | Does he not like that? |
46762 | Does she have a great deal of trouble? |
46762 | Every one has; have n''t they? |
46762 | Everybody has some burden; do n''t they, Aunt Patty? 46762 Grandmamma had a letter from him last night, and she said he promised to come before the winter was over; and_ wo n''t_ we all be happy then?" |
46762 | Harry, my boy,said Mrs. Bradford,"this is all so, but how do you happen to know so much about it?" |
46762 | Have you been in any mischief, dear? 46762 Have you offended him?" |
46762 | Heard what? |
46762 | Help me? |
46762 | How are your blind boy and your lame wife and your sick baby, and all your troubles? |
46762 | How could you help it if she wanted to, Maggie? |
46762 | How did they come off then? |
46762 | How do you do, Mr. Station Policeman? |
46762 | How do you know I would? |
46762 | How is he? |
46762 | How is your Willie? |
46762 | How old was she, farher? |
46762 | How precious what is, my darling? |
46762 | How? 46762 I do n''t know,"said Maggie;"how much can he afford?" |
46762 | I guess things ai n''t going just right with you; be they, Sergeant Richards? |
46762 | I wish we could always remember our Father is nigh; do n''t you, Aunt Patty? 46762 Is it a bargain, little ones? |
46762 | Is it a duty story, farher? |
46762 | Is it not pretty, Aunt Patty? 46762 Is that all?" |
46762 | Is that for me? |
46762 | Is the sea at the mountains, papa? |
46762 | It''s true, papa; is it not? |
46762 | Lot''s wife? |
46762 | Maggie, darling, who sends the rain? |
46762 | Maggie, have you forgiven that old woman yet? |
46762 | Maggie,said Bessie,"do you remember about that Patty woman?" |
46762 | Mamma can not kiss you till you are a good boy,said Mrs. Bradford, and repeated her question,"Where are your slippers?" |
46762 | Mamma, did you lend a helping hand? |
46762 | Mamma,Bessie had said afterwards,"do you think Aunt Patty was very grateful for our presents?" |
46762 | Mamma,said Bessie,"do you mean Aunt Bessie is coming to stay with us?" |
46762 | Mamma,said Harry, indignantly,"what do you stand it for? |
46762 | Mamma,said Maggie suddenly, as they were about leaving the table,"do n''t you wish you had forty children?" |
46762 | May I, papa,--may I? |
46762 | Mr. Bradford, I believe, sir? |
46762 | Not mamma? |
46762 | Oh, Maggie, why do n''t somebody come? |
46762 | Oh, do say those words to her? |
46762 | Oh, it has been such a bad day, and we thought it was going to be such a nice one, did n''t we? |
46762 | Oh, that, sir? 46762 Oh, you''re home, be you, Sergeant Richards?" |
46762 | Papa,said Bessie, as her father paused for a moment,"do you mean the story of this passionate child for a lesson to me?" |
46762 | Papa,said Fred, eagerly,"what were the names of these boys and their aunt?" |
46762 | Papa,said Maggie, as her father rose from the table,"do you think there is the least, least hope that it will clear to- day?" |
46762 | Papa,she exclaimed, as Mr. Richards said the last words,"does he really mean that woman went and paid that money for blind Willie to be cured?" |
46762 | Saw what, sonny? |
46762 | So you are very fond of music; are you, Willie? |
46762 | Starr,said Bessie, peeping up in his face,"have you some good news?" |
46762 | That sounds nicer and more booky; do n''t you think so? |
46762 | Was she a relation of yours, papa? |
46762 | Well, dear,she asked, after a moment''s surprised silence,"What is it?" |
46762 | Well,said the colonel, laughing,"neither you nor I shall quarrel with her for that; shall we? |
46762 | What are they, if you are at liberty to speak of them? |
46762 | What becomes of all your r''s? 46762 What did you say?" |
46762 | What did you use to call it? |
46762 | What does he say, Jennie? |
46762 | What does he say, Jennie? |
46762 | What does that mean, Maggie? |
46762 | What has happened to you? |
46762 | What has troubled you, dearest? |
46762 | What is all this about, little one? |
46762 | What is it, Willie? |
46762 | What is my rosebud afraid of? |
46762 | What is that? |
46762 | What is that? |
46762 | What is the matter, Willie? |
46762 | What is the meaning of all this? |
46762 | What is this trash in my basket? |
46762 | What is your lady''s name? |
46762 | What old lady? |
46762 | What shall we do for the blind boy? |
46762 | What woman? |
46762 | What would it look like? |
46762 | What? |
46762 | Where are your slippers, Franky? |
46762 | Where is your mother? |
46762 | Where is your nurse? |
46762 | Who is for a summer among the mountains? |
46762 | Who put it on? |
46762 | Who sha''n''t do what? |
46762 | Who told you that I had any burden to bear, child? |
46762 | Who was that on the stairs? |
46762 | Who''s making that music? |
46762 | Who''s that? |
46762 | Why do n''t they tell Jesus about their troubles, and ask him to help them? |
46762 | Why does Mrs. Bradford invite her when she always makes herself so disagreeable? |
46762 | Why, Bessie, my darling, what is it? |
46762 | Why, Mary, what is it, dear? |
46762 | Will that new foot walk in the street? |
46762 | Will you be our yelations when Uncle Yuthven marries Aunt Bessie? |
46762 | Will you please to walk in? |
46762 | Will you yite a piece that I make up about yourself? |
46762 | Would n''t you like to come out and feel the spring, Willie? 46762 Would you and Jennie like to go down to the parlor and hear it?" |
46762 | Would you, dear? |
46762 | You could n''t do wi''out me very well; could you, morher? |
46762 | You have; have you? |
46762 | You know me then? |
46762 | You say Dr. Schwitz tried to bribe you by saying he would send in no bill, if you allowed his nephew to escape? |
46762 | Young ladies, may I request the honor of your company in my room for a few moments? |
46762 | _ Does_ he, Aunt Bessie? |
46762 | _ You_ could not think of it, I suppose, Maggie? |
46762 | And can we do so, or truly show our love to him, if we hide the services rendered for his sake behind a mask of coldness and reserve? |
46762 | And do n''t you like to know the blue sky is there, and that Jesus is behind it, looking at you and feeling sorry for you? |
46762 | And do you not think it would be very pleasant to have her for your own aunt, and to keep her always with us for our very own?" |
46762 | And how was it with our Maggie? |
46762 | And if he do n''t make them very happy, the faults are a great deal harder to bear; are they not?" |
46762 | And now how was she to undo what she had done, so that Maggie and Bessie might still keep this matter in their own hands? |
46762 | And now would you like this little peace- offering from Uncle Ruthven?" |
46762 | And that tiny quilt was the pride and delight of Jennie''s heart; for had she not put it all together with her own small fingers? |
46762 | And the babies,--would you wish them motherless? |
46762 | And these people were nothing to her; why should she make such a sacrifice for them? |
46762 | And was it possible that this dreadful old woman was really coming again to their house to make a visit? |
46762 | And was it possible? |
46762 | And what would our Jennie do without the little sister that she has such a pride in and lays so many plans for? |
46762 | Are they hopping about like they used to, over the trees, so tame and nice?" |
46762 | Are you his wife, ma''am?" |
46762 | Are you not glad to see me?" |
46762 | Are you not glad?" |
46762 | Are you the little girl that was lost and taken up to the station?" |
46762 | As for poor Mrs. Bradford, it was very mortifying for her; but what was to be done? |
46762 | Aunt Bessie and Uncle Ruthven were there; and what did she see? |
46762 | Aunt Bessie, why did n''t it come?" |
46762 | Aunt Patty is quite too dog- in- the- mangery; is she not?" |
46762 | Bring her doggie,''"said Jennie; then turning to her mother, she asked,"Mother, do you b''lieve you can understand Tommy till I come back?" |
46762 | But I do wish we could really know; do n''t you, Bessie?" |
46762 | But how could she do it? |
46762 | But is not that a sweet hymn to say when we are sorry for our sin, and want him to help and forgive us again? |
46762 | But the question was, how should she get the money back from the doctor without betraying herself to him or some of the family? |
46762 | But who was she, and how did she know so much of my affairs? |
46762 | But you are not going to lose your sight; are you, Bessie?" |
46762 | But, Willie, if he does not see fit to give you back your sight, could you bear it, and try to think that it is his will, and he knows best?" |
46762 | But, dearest children, did we not all determine not to allow ourselves to be irritated and vexed by such things as have taken place this morning? |
46762 | But, mamma, it ca n''t be; can it? |
46762 | Can I be of any service to you, sir?" |
46762 | Can you not imagine that he thought it would be very pleasant for us to be related to you?" |
46762 | Come and look over the balusters, but do n''t let her see you, or else she''ll say,''What are you staring at, child?''" |
46762 | Could n''t you feel a little that way about your mother, Willie?" |
46762 | Did you not see dear Bessie''s wistful look at you as she bade you good- night? |
46762 | Do n''t you think your mother and me would like to see you rigged out like them, if we had the way to do it? |
46762 | Do n''t you wish we lived in the country, father?" |
46762 | Do you not know your Aunt Patty?" |
46762 | Do you remember that God hears you when you say such wicked words?" |
46762 | Do you think Mrs. Richards would be hurt if I offered them to her? |
46762 | Do you think of going there?" |
46762 | Do you wonder that the sight drove her frantic? |
46762 | Doctor, was I just as patient as you wanted me to be?" |
46762 | He knew just what we would like; did he not, mamma?" |
46762 | He would like to know how much you want for it?" |
46762 | Here lives a man named Porter,--you remember him, Aunt Patty?" |
46762 | How comes on the history of the''Complete Family,''Maggie?" |
46762 | How could he save Aleck? |
46762 | How could papa and mamma think it best to allow it? |
46762 | How dare she talk so to you? |
46762 | How is my policeman?" |
46762 | I have, thank God, the means and the time; can you show me where I can best spend them?" |
46762 | I''ll answer for it that those eyes could flash with something besides fun; could they not, papa?" |
46762 | If I find a man to buy your book, will you have it ready, and trust it to me, when I come back?" |
46762 | Is my policeman pretty well?" |
46762 | Is n''t he, Willie?" |
46762 | It was_ you_ sent her, after all, ma''am; was it not?" |
46762 | It''s as the gentleman says,--''bread cast upon the waters;''but who''d ha''thought to see it come back the way it does? |
46762 | Just now-- But how far do your benevolent intentions go?" |
46762 | Mamma, could n''t you help them?'' |
46762 | Mamma, do n''t you think papa had better ask him to go back to Africa for a little while?" |
46762 | Mamma, do n''t you think that is plenty of yeasons to be fond of her for?" |
46762 | May I ask who are the''we''who have such a very high opinion of me?" |
46762 | None of us can see Jesus, but we know he sees us and loves us all the same; do n''t we? |
46762 | Now is she not a meddling, aggravating old coon, Aunt Bessie? |
46762 | Now was n''t that pretty? |
46762 | Now we only feel glad, and do n''t you feel glad, too, when you know how happy they all are?" |
46762 | Oh, will I never have to fret to see mother''s face again?" |
46762 | Poorly, eh?" |
46762 | Richards, how are you?" |
46762 | Rush said,"Children, what do you think that burden was?" |
46762 | Rush,"and how could you do all that on one foot?" |
46762 | Schwitz?" |
46762 | She would not be so good and generous; would she?" |
46762 | She, this innocent little one, the darling and pet of all around her, what burden could she have to bear? |
46762 | Should she ask the children for it when they came home? |
46762 | Should she bear the burdens of others only when they did not weigh heavily on herself? |
46762 | Suddenly there came from the door, in clear, childish tones,"Ladies, ladies, does Patty stold oo? |
46762 | That those who stood beside her could scarcely prevent her from throwing herself into those waters which covered all she loved best? |
46762 | Was it not so?" |
46762 | Was it possible? |
46762 | Was it possible? |
46762 | Well, Mary, how has it gone to- day? |
46762 | Well, what does she do, the pretty creature, but just catch herself up in the midst of her grieving and say that bit of a prayer? |
46762 | Were not the branches looped with gay ribbons? |
46762 | What did it matter if one could scarcely tell the pigs from the men? |
46762 | What do you mean by that?" |
46762 | What do you mean, Henry?" |
46762 | What do you say to it? |
46762 | What do you say, Bessie? |
46762 | What is the good of having an old uncle with plenty of money in his pockets, if you do not make him''do charity''for you? |
46762 | What is the matter, Maggie, and where is nurse?" |
46762 | What reward shall I give you for that_ R_uthven?" |
46762 | What should you say to Uncle Horace and Aunt May?" |
46762 | What would I do without you, Mary, dear? |
46762 | When mamma teaches you French, you can not always pronounce the words as she does; can you?" |
46762 | Where are your nurses, that they do not see after you? |
46762 | Who could help it? |
46762 | Why will you not openly share with us the pleasure we must all feel at the blind boy''s restoration to sight? |
46762 | Why, have you seen the child?" |
46762 | Why? |
46762 | Will it be next week, father?" |
46762 | Will it do?" |
46762 | Will she let me touch her?" |
46762 | Will you try if you can be like Benito, and so receive the blessing of Him who says the cup of cold water given in his name shall meet its reward?" |
46762 | Will you wonder if after this Henry felt as if he could never be patient or forbearing enough with this poor unhappy lady?" |
46762 | Would you like to go with her and see the policeman''s children?" |
46762 | Would you not like to go down- stairs, pets, and ask old Dinah to bake a little cake for each of you? |
46762 | Would you not like to go there with all the dear friends, rather than to Quam without them?" |
46762 | You do n''t know if Mrs. Stanton has any relations of the name of Bradford?" |
46762 | You love dear Aunt Bessie very much; do you not?" |
46762 | _ JENNIE''S HOME._"Morher,"said little Jennie Richards,"is n''t it''most time for farher to be home?" |
46762 | and"Why do n''t you let the carriage leave you at the house?" |
46762 | but then that could not be; could it?" |
46762 | exclaimed Bessie, as her mother just then entered the room,"what do you think? |
46762 | or"Is not that pretty?" |
46762 | said Bessie,"what does that mean?" |
46762 | said Fred, in a voice of dismay,"Aunt Patty is not coming here again; is she? |
46762 | said Fred,"anything more?" |
46762 | said her uncle,"so you have come to it at last; have you? |
46762 | said mamma,"is that the way to speak to Aunt Patty?" |
46762 | we are very much_ trialed_; are we not, Maggie?" |
46762 | what is all this about? |
46762 | where have you been?" |
43263 | A hand, an arm, a gun? |
43263 | A-- a leaf? |
43263 | All you want is your money? 43263 And are you equipped to handle that side of the case?" |
43263 | And do you wish to be tried by this court? |
43263 | And last night? |
43263 | And still you came back? |
43263 | And the bullet? |
43263 | And the bullet? |
43263 | And these birds took it? |
43263 | And we''ll find the man, wo n''t we, Drew? |
43263 | And what do you think? 43263 Another call?" |
43263 | Are you a lawyer? |
43263 | Bad for what? |
43263 | Be in town that long, wo n''t you? |
43263 | Bullets? |
43263 | But do you know the exact way to this farm? |
43263 | But how must the detective feel who has dealings with such a man? 43263 But is n''t a police officer''s life always in danger?" |
43263 | But the bullets? |
43263 | But the burglars? |
43263 | But what about the squad call that was going through when the raid on the radio station was made? |
43263 | But what''s on the platter? |
43263 | But where did the boys come from? |
43263 | But where is the society that cares for the women and children made widows and orphans by the bullets of gangsters, burglars, and robbers? 43263 But who could do less than try?" |
43263 | But why do they do it? |
43263 | But why the grin at all? |
43263 | But why? 43263 Ca n''t you see? |
43263 | Call picking pockets going straight? |
43263 | Can you prove that he meant to shoot you? |
43263 | Can you? |
43263 | Did they get them? 43263 Did you hear him? |
43263 | Do n''t mind coming along, do you? 43263 Do you think those pickpockets had their gang walk in on this boy and beat him up?" |
43263 | Do you think you can make anything of just a shell? |
43263 | Drew,said Johnny, almost solemnly,"did you ever hear of Newton Mills?" |
43263 | Drew? 43263 Dumplings in meat gravy?" |
43263 | Equipped? |
43263 | Ever box? |
43263 | Find anything? |
43263 | First thing we''ve got to do to- morrow,said Drew,"is to work out the probabilities?" |
43263 | For,he was accustomed to say to his friends,"who will know what I hold in that hand? |
43263 | Forensic ballistics,he said musingly as he sipped hot coffee,"sounds rather impossible, does n''t it? |
43263 | Freight? 43263 Go answer it, will you?" |
43263 | Going over town? 43263 Gone?" |
43263 | Got good jobs? |
43263 | Had anything to eat? |
43263 | Has he told you how it all came about? |
43263 | Have a good rest? |
43263 | Have n''t you heard? |
43263 | Have these men a record? |
43263 | Have they found the bullet? |
43263 | Have they saved the bullet? |
43263 | He did? 43263 He''s a pal of yours?" |
43263 | He-- he never told us--"That he had a daughter? 43263 He? |
43263 | Hey? 43263 How about it?" |
43263 | How about the bullets? |
43263 | How does it come you were not arrested with this pal of yours? |
43263 | How''d you like to meet me at the club this evening for a few rounds? |
43263 | I wonder if that''s the price? 43263 In those other cases of that night, the safe- blowing and theatre robbery, was there any unnecessary shooting?" |
43263 | In what way do they differ? |
43263 | Is it hard to become a city detective? |
43263 | Is that true? |
43263 | It may save this man Mills for a great service,he told himself,"and who knows better than he how to bring these inhuman ones to justice?" |
43263 | Just what you been doing with this thing? |
43263 | Know how most of''em go? 43263 Know what''s in this jug?" |
43263 | Know what? |
43263 | Know what? |
43263 | Like a little music? |
43263 | Mind if I sit down awhile? 43263 Newton Mills, the great city detective? |
43263 | Newton Mills? |
43263 | Nothing, is it? 43263 Now can I go?" |
43263 | Probably I did; otherwise why did he drop the gun? |
43263 | Remember me, do n''t you? 43263 Shall you go with us? |
43263 | Sit down, wo n''t you? |
43263 | Slugs? |
43263 | So that''s a leaf? |
43263 | So that''s the way they do it? |
43263 | So you know I rode the back of the gangster''s car all the way out? |
43263 | Someone has told you? |
43263 | Tell me? |
43263 | That yours? |
43263 | That''s the way it goes, is it? |
43263 | The man with the hole in his hand shot Rosy''s father? 43263 The probabilities?" |
43263 | They are? |
43263 | They did n''t tell you, did they? |
43263 | They nearly killed you, did n''t they? |
43263 | Think I''d stay away? |
43263 | Think they''ll ever use airplanes in hunting criminals? |
43263 | Think you''re a smart bunch, do n''t ya''? |
43263 | To what purpose? |
43263 | Train? |
43263 | We will get the reward, wo n''t we? 43263 Well,"chuckled Drew,"you got one, did n''t you?" |
43263 | Well,said the judge,"you all working?" |
43263 | Wha-- what is it? |
43263 | Wha-- what was that? |
43263 | Wha-- where am I? |
43263 | What are you doing here? |
43263 | What bullet? |
43263 | What bullets? |
43263 | What can one learn from a spent bullet? |
43263 | What could be sweeter? 43263 What could be sweeter?" |
43263 | What could have happened? |
43263 | What did you do? |
43263 | What did you do? |
43263 | What did you kill? |
43263 | What do you mean, the type? |
43263 | What do you say? 43263 What do you think, Drew?" |
43263 | What guns? |
43263 | What have you done with them? 43263 What have you got to say?" |
43263 | What is your name? |
43263 | What of it? |
43263 | What was that? |
43263 | What was this bird doing when you shot him with that arrow? |
43263 | What will you do with the cottage now? |
43263 | What would you have done? |
43263 | What you running about? |
43263 | What''s all that? |
43263 | What''s that? |
43263 | What''s this man''s name? |
43263 | What''s wrong? |
43263 | What''s your name? |
43263 | When is a man an empty shell? 43263 Where are them slugs?" |
43263 | Where did you get that gun? |
43263 | Where is he? |
43263 | Where is he? |
43263 | Where''d you come from? |
43263 | Where''s the light switch? |
43263 | Where? |
43263 | Where? |
43263 | Where? |
43263 | Who made you a call? 43263 Who shot?" |
43263 | Who was running this game? |
43263 | Who''s gone? |
43263 | Who? |
43263 | Who? |
43263 | Why? |
43263 | Wonder why that man beat me up there in the studio? 43263 Wonder why they live here? |
43263 | Yeah? 43263 You all got real good jobs?" |
43263 | You are Newton Mills? |
43263 | You drink with him sometimes? |
43263 | You have heard of him? |
43263 | You here? |
43263 | You know that long row of warehouses just back of your shack, Drew? |
43263 | You stole a hundred dollars from an innocent boy as a joke on a boy detective? 43263 You took a little drink yesterday?" |
43263 | You want some coffee? 43263 You wo n''t fail us?" |
43263 | You-- you do n''t know those other young fellows? |
43263 | Your father? 43263 A quiet night? 43263 A whole leaf? |
43263 | AND WHY? |
43263 | Afraid? |
43263 | And besides, if they did, who would they get to go for''em? |
43263 | And now, who knows? |
43263 | And why, I wonder? |
43263 | And you''ll stick?" |
43263 | And you? |
43263 | Anything else?" |
43263 | Are we warned or threatened? |
43263 | But after all, the question is, where do the radio station wreckers belong?" |
43263 | But after that? |
43263 | But had he seen her? |
43263 | But how about the others?" |
43263 | But how was this to be effected? |
43263 | But how? |
43263 | But if we needed you to appear before a jury as a witness in this case four months from now, would you be in Chicago?" |
43263 | But must a high class robber believe all that he hears on the street? |
43263 | But then, who can describe ravioli a la Tuscany? |
43263 | But was this a true derelict? |
43263 | But we''ll find out, wo n''t we, Drew?" |
43263 | But were these truly ready to stand back of law and justice? |
43263 | But what of this strange, prematurely gray man? |
43263 | But what was this? |
43263 | But what was this? |
43263 | But where you going?" |
43263 | But who knows? |
43263 | But why did he pick me up? |
43263 | But would not this hasten his own death? |
43263 | CHAPTER VI WHO? |
43263 | Ca n''t do much with it, can you? |
43263 | Ca n''t you see how they''ll shape it up?" |
43263 | Could such a sight fail to bring to the lips an awe- inspired cry? |
43263 | Did a member of the gang try to do away with you so you could not testify? |
43263 | Did he prefer it so? |
43263 | Did his truck carry flour, melons, green corn, or moonshine? |
43263 | Did it have a basement? |
43263 | Did the new bus boy take cognizance of it on that first night of service? |
43263 | Did they still wish to plead guilty? |
43263 | Did they stop? |
43263 | Did you drop them in the car? |
43263 | Did you not know that? |
43263 | Displaying two of these on the palm of his hand, he asked:"Are they alike?" |
43263 | Do I have your permission?" |
43263 | Do n''t mind a little music to lull you to the land of dreams?" |
43263 | Do they belong to a well organized gang? |
43263 | Do you always travel that way?" |
43263 | Do you hear me? |
43263 | Do you understand?" |
43263 | Does our friend Hole- in- His- Hand belong to the holdup gang, or the fur store robbers?" |
43263 | Does this seem strange? |
43263 | Drew stepped up to Jimmy and patted him on the back, exclaiming:"How are you, son?" |
43263 | For how is one to enjoy culture unless he has a lady on his arm? |
43263 | For who can tell at what hour mail is collected from street boxes at night? |
43263 | Fresh adventure? |
43263 | Funny, ai n''t it? |
43263 | Guilty, or not guilty? |
43263 | Guilty, or not guilty?" |
43263 | Had she gone to her cousin''s in Naperville? |
43263 | Him? |
43263 | How about him? |
43263 | How did you expect to get his money back to him? |
43263 | How did you mean to explain his loss to him?" |
43263 | How had the Ramacciottis come into possession of this card? |
43263 | How much more the wreck of a great man? |
43263 | How was his man, his derelict? |
43263 | How''d a leaf look to you? |
43263 | How''d you look stripped? |
43263 | How''ll I do it?''" |
43263 | How? |
43263 | Huh? |
43263 | I--""Would you know the barn if you saw it?" |
43263 | I--"But what was this? |
43263 | If he pried one of them open could he escape? |
43263 | If she failed again could she make her way back to the ladder? |
43263 | If so, which one was connected with the attack upon you? |
43263 | If that was the angle, was more than one major crime committed in that half hour? |
43263 | If with the law breaker, was he interested in some dark doings of this night? |
43263 | In the meantime, what of Johnny? |
43263 | Is great happiness always followed by a touch of sadness? |
43263 | Is it important? |
43263 | Know how it works, do n''t you?" |
43263 | Know what? |
43263 | Knowing this, do you still wish to plead guilty?" |
43263 | Leap forward? |
43263 | Let him go, ca n''t you, Judge?" |
43263 | Let him go, will you, Judge?" |
43263 | May I ask you to assist us in this case?" |
43263 | Mind company?" |
43263 | Mystery? |
43263 | Never heard of one, did you? |
43263 | Now he was gliding slowly, surely forward-- to what? |
43263 | Once more Drew demanded,"What was that?" |
43263 | Or are you going?" |
43263 | Or did he think? |
43263 | Or is it collected at all between midnight and 6:00 A.M.? |
43263 | Question is, what were the rascals about? |
43263 | Ramacciotti?" |
43263 | Regret it?" |
43263 | Romance? |
43263 | Same man? |
43263 | See? |
43263 | She had just reached the second shadow when she heard a gruff voice say:"What you shoot at?" |
43263 | Should he shout a warning? |
43263 | That right?" |
43263 | That right?" |
43263 | Them bullets?" |
43263 | There were three cases that night, were n''t there?" |
43263 | This, one would say, was an improvement, for who wishes to be seen grinning and gesturing at a telephone, as one is forever doing? |
43263 | Upon what was this hatred based? |
43263 | Very simple, is n''t it? |
43263 | Was a big burglary in progress? |
43263 | Was a shadow of the future stretching out to engulf her? |
43263 | Was he listening for the call that would tell of the discovery of his band? |
43263 | Was he recounting to them in detail the history of that mysterious arrow? |
43263 | Was he right? |
43263 | Was he to be expected to accompany the man to his home and see for himself that the truth was being told? |
43263 | Was it important? |
43263 | Was it impossible? |
43263 | Was it some pal of these pickpockets? |
43263 | Was she trying to help? |
43263 | Was there, from time to time, about the corners of the slim bus boy''s lips on that night the suggestion of a smile? |
43263 | Was this man sent up to silence the radio and prevent the squad call? |
43263 | We--""You knew them?" |
43263 | Were n''t wearing your star?" |
43263 | Were not Johnny and Drew her friends? |
43263 | What are you?" |
43263 | What could be more natural? |
43263 | What could have happened to it?" |
43263 | What damage had it done? |
43263 | What did it mean? |
43263 | What do n''t they steal? |
43263 | What do you say, Mills?" |
43263 | What had he accomplished? |
43263 | What is more wonderful than being sixteen? |
43263 | What kind of work? |
43263 | What luck this afternoon?" |
43263 | What occupied his thoughts during these long hours? |
43263 | What of Johnny''s arrow? |
43263 | What one of them will face a hand in a coat pocket?" |
43263 | What saved Johnny? |
43263 | What should he do? |
43263 | What should he say? |
43263 | What thoughts filled his mind at this hour? |
43263 | What was a"leaf?" |
43263 | What was it? |
43263 | What was that call? |
43263 | What was to be done? |
43263 | What was to come next? |
43263 | What you think? |
43263 | What''s the use? |
43263 | What''s this? |
43263 | When he suggested this to her he was astonished by the snapping of her black eyes as she exclaimed:"Me afraid? |
43263 | When is he a hopeless derelict?" |
43263 | Where are they?" |
43263 | Where is he?" |
43263 | Where is my father?" |
43263 | Where lay his sympathies? |
43263 | Where was the hand, the gun, the man? |
43263 | Where was the intruder? |
43263 | Where were they to be found? |
43263 | Who can say what relief one may find, from surroundings that are terrible, by contemplating that which is beautiful, though very far away? |
43263 | Who can say which one longed most for that land, mother or daughter? |
43263 | Who can say? |
43263 | Who can say? |
43263 | Who can tell?" |
43263 | Who could have told? |
43263 | Who could say? |
43263 | Who had beaten him up the night before? |
43263 | Who had reported them? |
43263 | Who has n''t?" |
43263 | Who is to stand up against such an invisible force?" |
43263 | Who knows? |
43263 | Who knows? |
43263 | Who knows? |
43263 | Who knows? |
43263 | Who was Rosy? |
43263 | Who was this whirlwind? |
43263 | Who were the culprits? |
43263 | Who would n''t be? |
43263 | Who would? |
43263 | Who''s here?" |
43263 | Who? |
43263 | Whom did he have locked up? |
43263 | Why did Drew room in this odd place? |
43263 | Why did she live in that other shack among the walls of brick and mortar? |
43263 | Why did this young man listen so intently? |
43263 | Why did you do it?" |
43263 | Why do n''t you?" |
43263 | Why not a thousand like him, fresh from college, full of ideals, ready for fight? |
43263 | Why not that?" |
43263 | Why not? |
43263 | Why not? |
43263 | Why not? |
43263 | Why not? |
43263 | Why? |
43263 | Why? |
43263 | Will I be like that in twenty years?" |
43263 | Will she recall the face? |
43263 | Will they get the bullets? |
43263 | Will you?" |
43263 | With the police, or with the law breaker? |
43263 | Wo n''t we, Howe?" |
43263 | Wonder why he carries a gun? |
43263 | Would anything worth while come of this affair? |
43263 | Would he be able to tell from the expressions on their faces when they saw him? |
43263 | Would the gangsters hear? |
43263 | Would they come to search for her? |
43263 | Would they find her? |
43263 | Yes?" |
43263 | You heard Mills say there were no stool pigeons used in that kidnapping case we solved?" |
43263 | You know him?" |
43263 | You say this young man has told the truth? |
43263 | You were getting off the car, were n''t you?" |
43263 | You''re not afraid to fly?" |
43263 | You''ve read detective stories?" |
43263 | and Why? |
46462 | ''How do you ever come to know that?'' 46462 ''Next, gentlemen,''said I,''do you suspect anybody?'' |
46462 | ''Where does your father live?'' 46462 A black, common- looking thing?" |
46462 | All square with the landlord, then? |
46462 | All what things? |
46462 | An imprudent marriage probably? |
46462 | And Mr. Lovell, did you observe how his voice shook? 46462 And is_ amount_ of any consequence to your friend?" |
46462 | And where do you catch them? |
46462 | And where does Levi Samuel live? |
46462 | And where is that? |
46462 | And which is the pleasantest road? |
46462 | And yet,said I,"I think I have heard something about a Suitors''Fee Fund in those Courts above-- eh, Ficker?" |
46462 | And you,I said;"how are you to escape?" |
46462 | And your four victims are? |
46462 | And_ was_ it Mesheck''s? |
46462 | Any relation to M. le Breton''s fair correspondent''s Fidèle, I wonder? |
46462 | Anything more? |
46462 | Are the jury cases frequent? |
46462 | As how? |
46462 | Ay, truly; but what can_ you_ know of him? 46462 But his wife--_she_ is not a native of the principality?" |
46462 | But how do they know that? |
46462 | But perhaps you have not heard of these places? |
46462 | But perhaps you will allow me to look at the indexes? |
46462 | But pray where is the gold you mean to pay us with? |
46462 | But what excuse can you make for remaining there, when they know you are booked for Kendal? 46462 But you do n''t mean,"said I,"that the suiters are made to pay £90,000 a year for what only costs £60,000?" |
46462 | Call you that nothing? |
46462 | Did I know him? |
46462 | Did you not hear a noise below? |
46462 | Do you know this house they intend to stop at? |
46462 | Do you know where the Registry is? |
46462 | Do you know where these screams come from? |
46462 | Do you mean me and Henry? |
46462 | Do you say so? |
46462 | Do you think it probable,I eagerly asked,"that the_ Columbia_ will be obliged to put back into Plymouth?" |
46462 | Do you think so? 46462 Do you think,"said the woman, after the lapse of about five minutes--"do you think Owen and his family will go with us? |
46462 | Do you, sir? |
46462 | Does Gates the attorney visit her? |
46462 | Does it though? 46462 Doing a pretty good business here?" |
46462 | Fences? |
46462 | For what purpose, sir, are you instituting this eager search after my brother? 46462 From consideration chiefly, I dare say, for the age and infirmities of his lordship, and his numerous family?" |
46462 | From whom came, then, these scraps of perfumed note- paper I have found in his desk I wonder? |
46462 | Half- a- croone? |
46462 | Hartley and Simpson you say? |
46462 | Have you done anything to- day? |
46462 | How am I to know,observed Mr. Lloyd, whose glance of pride had quickly passed away,"that you are dealing fairly and candidly with me in the matter?" |
46462 | How came you acquainted with this robber''s haunts? |
46462 | How came you to send those heavy boxes here, Jones? |
46462 | How long does a defended case take? |
46462 | I am of a different opinion; but tell me, what sort of a person is this former master of hers? |
46462 | I think I have met you before,he remarked with a meaning smile on dismissing me,"when you occupied a different position from your present one? |
46462 | I understood you had retired from amongst us; were in fact-- what shall I say? |
46462 | Is Mr. Brown still within? |
46462 | Is Sarah Purday,I asked the turnkey,"more reconciled to her position than she was?" |
46462 | Is he dead? 46462 Is it give, sir? |
46462 | Is it possible? 46462 Is not that fellow sober yet?" |
46462 | Is that the law also with respect to bills of exchange? |
46462 | Is that tower we see part of the abbey? |
46462 | Is there_ any_ chance of recovering our property? |
46462 | It is; and I am here to know what your singular advertisement means? |
46462 | Jury cases occupy much longer? |
46462 | Levasseur called you Marie Duquesne just now; but surely your name is Jaubert-- is it not? |
46462 | Might he not have inadvertently left it there when with you? |
46462 | Mr. B.? 46462 Mr. Ezekiel Grey?" |
46462 | Never mind him; there were two twenties, were there not? |
46462 | No female relative or acquaintance has n''t he? |
46462 | Not rich apparently? |
46462 | Not, marm? |
46462 | Now, sir, on your oath, are they a portion of the property of which you have been robbed? |
46462 | Now,said Mr. Ficker,"tell us what you all do for this money?" |
46462 | Pray do you happen to know any thing of a family called Lovell? |
46462 | Qu''est ce qu''il y a donc? |
46462 | Rogers and his wife were not, I hope, cognizant of this? |
46462 | Shall we wait any longer for him? |
46462 | Sir,I replied, enclosing my left ear with my hand in the manner of a natural ear- trumpet,"did you speak?" |
46462 | Supposing I could assist you,she at last said,"how would that help me?" |
46462 | Tell me-- tell me, as you hope for life or mercy, where I may find my child? |
46462 | The Miller? |
46462 | The Registry; where they keep the wills? |
46462 | Then it is lost? |
46462 | Then, Mr. Bristowe,said the magistrate''s clerk,"assuming this curious narrative to be correct, you will be easily able to prove an_ alibi_?" |
46462 | There is, I suppose, no vow registered in the matrimonial archives against_ looking on_ at a game played by others? |
46462 | This brooch is yours? |
46462 | This letter,said I,"is a very important one; but where is the envelop?" |
46462 | Those men-- those fellows at Rugby-- where did you meet with them? |
46462 | True-- true,she muttered:"how else should he know? |
46462 | Very true,said I;"but suppose they had sixteen daughters, like a half- pay officer I once met on board a steam packet?" |
46462 | Was it, Sir? 46462 Wat, vor telling me nought?" |
46462 | Well, Barnes,I exclaimed as soon as we were in a room by ourselves, and the door closed,"what is it you have discovered?" |
46462 | Well, that''s right enough: and now how much discount do you charge? |
46462 | Well,said our friend,"what do you propose to give me for this?" |
46462 | Well,she impatiently snarled,"suppose so; what then?" |
46462 | What can this be? |
46462 | What do you call this? |
46462 | What do you guess? 46462 What do you mean by''school?''" |
46462 | What dress did he wear when he left? |
46462 | What for? 46462 What for?" |
46462 | What has become of Monsieur? |
46462 | What is it? |
46462 | What is the lady''s name? |
46462 | What is to be done then? |
46462 | What post- mark does the letter bear? |
46462 | What right,I answered with some heat,"have you, sir, to make such an insinuation?" |
46462 | What shall I do-- what shall I do? |
46462 | What sort of people were they? |
46462 | What vessel is that? |
46462 | What was the nature of the communication? |
46462 | What_ is_ the meaning of this? |
46462 | When do you mean to take them away? 46462 When do you say is the very earliest time she may be expected?" |
46462 | When you received your instructions,said we,"you went away, and held a sort of Cabinet Council together?" |
46462 | Where did you hide the soap on the day when you confess you tried to poison Henry Rogers? |
46462 | Where do I catch them? 46462 Where does the remainder go?" |
46462 | Where is Crawford? |
46462 | Where is that? 46462 Where is the other boatman who came out with us?" |
46462 | Who is always quarreling? |
46462 | Why do they obey your orders so passively? |
46462 | Why do you ask, mother? |
46462 | Why have you not paid, sir? |
46462 | Why, what is all this, Waters? |
46462 | Why, what, in the name of all that''s comical, is the meaning of this? |
46462 | Why? |
46462 | Will it be early in the night, think you, that she will run in, if at all? |
46462 | Would it not have been better to have sent them direct to Portsmouth, where the vessel calls? |
46462 | Yes, Mr.Wat---- I beg pardon, Mr. What''s- your name, I would say?" |
46462 | Yes-- and what then? |
46462 | Yes: what do you want with him? |
46462 | Yes: you know my cousin, Sophy Clarke? 46462 Yes; but what of that? |
46462 | You are in possession, then, if Miss Caroline Lloyd is living with her father, of his precise place of abode? |
46462 | You are mistaken,rejoined Owen;"there was a five- pound country note in it, and the loss will---- What is the matter, friend?" |
46462 | You closely observed Sir Charles Malvern yesterday evening, I presume? |
46462 | You have, I suppose, read the advertisements marked on these papers? |
46462 | You know me, Mr. Skelton, and doubtless guess the meaning of my errand? |
46462 | You know us then? |
46462 | You quite understand, Waters, that Skelton is not for a moment to be lost sight of till his deposition has been taken? |
46462 | You will accompany us, Waters? |
46462 | _ Quite_ square? |
46462 | _ The Columbia!_ Why, when did she arrive? |
46462 | ''An''t it?'' |
46462 | ''Any letters for Mr. Thomas Pigeon?'' |
46462 | ''At work all night?'' |
46462 | ''Bobbish,''he says;''but who''s that with you?'' |
46462 | ''But why all this secrecy?'' |
46462 | ''Did you get''em from Mr. Trinkle, direct,''says I,''if you''ll excuse my asking the question?'' |
46462 | ''Expected home soon?'' |
46462 | ''Good morning, Sir,''says he''Would you allow me to inquire, Sir,''says I,''if you ever had any acquaintance with a party of the name of Grimwood?'' |
46462 | ''Happen to have heard of a young woman being murdered there?'' |
46462 | ''Have you any idea who cleaned them?'' |
46462 | ''How are you?'' |
46462 | ''How do you find yourself?'' |
46462 | ''I ai n''t in partickler want of a bargain just now,''he says,''but where is it?'' |
46462 | ''I hope you''ll let me have my coat?'' |
46462 | ''Is there a Mr. John Pigeon staying here?'' |
46462 | ''No?'' |
46462 | ''No?'' |
46462 | ''Perhaps_ you_ would n''t object to a drain?'' |
46462 | ''Rising eight, is he?'' |
46462 | ''Then you know who cleaned''em?'' |
46462 | ''Then, perhaps,''says I, taking the gloves out of my pocket,''you can tell me who cleaned this pair of gloves? |
46462 | ''We''ll have two more, Missis,''said the friends,''and con- found you, Constable, you''ll give your man a drop, wo n''t you?'' |
46462 | ''Well,''he says,''what do you want for it?'' |
46462 | ''What are you doing here? |
46462 | ''What do you say now? |
46462 | ''Where do you come from?'' |
46462 | ''Whose gloves are these?'' |
46462 | ''Why, in the name of wonder,''says me and Mr. Tatt, in astonishment,''how did you come by that?'' |
46462 | ''Will you allow me to call him over here,''says he,''that his father may not see it done?'' |
46462 | ''Would you come round with me now?'' |
46462 | ''You ai n''t a Baker?'' |
46462 | ''You did n''t happen to remark what the post- mark was, perhaps?'' |
46462 | ''You do n''t mean that?'' |
46462 | ''You have got an ostler, I suppose?'' |
46462 | ''You know the Waterloo Road?'' |
46462 | ''You''re a glove cleaner, are you?'' |
46462 | A few have done something fraudulent in"contempt"of all law and equity; but is not even_ their_ punishment greater than their crime? |
46462 | A few weeks ago, it was nothing like so magnificent?" |
46462 | A silence of a minute or two succeeded, and then Levasseur said,"You are of course prepared for business?" |
46462 | After staring and rubbing his chin for some time longer, he replied with the unexpected question--"Do you like bacon?" |
46462 | And-- now I remember-- what did you say was the lady''s name?" |
46462 | Are you ready?" |
46462 | As he grew flushed and rosy, and I therefore imagined communicative, I said,"Well, now, tell me who and what is that lady?" |
46462 | As soon as we had gone about a hundred paces from the house, I said,"Pray can you tell me which is Mr. Lloyd the beech- merchant''s house?" |
46462 | At last, he came, per steamboat, and I took him, and lodged him in a New York Prison called the Tombs; which I dare say you know, Sir?" |
46462 | Because the reason why? |
46462 | But I suppose you''d stand by me, now, if I wanted a boy to help me in a little skirmish?" |
46462 | But for that I-- I---- What do you stare at me so for, you infernal blue- bottle? |
46462 | But here we are; what do you take-- port?" |
46462 | But how is it your dress has become so suddenly changed? |
46462 | But how was he to support his mother''s grief? |
46462 | But is there any tangible evidence to justify this horrible suspicion?" |
46462 | But the clerk was bothered, and did n''t know whether it was him, or wasn''t-- because the reason why? |
46462 | But the wages was-- ha, ha, ha!--was not sufficient, and I never could suit myself, do n''t you see? |
46462 | But what evidence have you to support your assertion?" |
46462 | But what will not an enthusiastic antiquary dare, in his loved pursuit? |
46462 | By the way, how are the other fees distributed?" |
46462 | By the way, why should not the same option be given to suitors in Westminster Hall as is given in the County Courts?" |
46462 | Can nothing be done? |
46462 | Can ye do anything for me?" |
46462 | Can you show it me? |
46462 | Could he have access to the documents themselves? |
46462 | Could you find him anywheres?'' |
46462 | Did he know where the ecclesiastical records were kept? |
46462 | Did n''t you obsarve him jump into the main chains of the barkey jist as you wor leavin''on her, and cast us off a minute afterwards? |
46462 | Did_ he_ complain? |
46462 | Dinner was just over when Mrs. Lloyd said,"Oh, Mr. Jones, have you seen anything of my husband''s pocket- book? |
46462 | Do n''t you hear the muffled drums? |
46462 | Do you begin to perceive my drift?" |
46462 | Do you recognize it-- fool, idiot that you are?" |
46462 | Fikey at home?'' |
46462 | First- rate, is n''t it? |
46462 | GUILTY OR NOT GUILTY? |
46462 | Have these gloves been cleaned?'' |
46462 | Have you seen a ghost?" |
46462 | Have you_ no_ respect for antiquity?" |
46462 | He had assured them he would do so, but where was he to get the money? |
46462 | He was silent for a few moments, and then he bawled out:"She''ll swing for it, they say-- swing for it, d''ye hear, dame? |
46462 | He would be asked where he sat at the supper? |
46462 | Him in the green coat?'' |
46462 | His figure expanded with a burst of indignation, which presently exploded in the interrogative interjection,"What?" |
46462 | How came I not to think of this before? |
46462 | How could he know so well? |
46462 | How do you know that?" |
46462 | How else could they account for their tears, their confusion, their bewilderment, their despair? |
46462 | How meet the eye of the girl he loved? |
46462 | How should I otherwise have become acquainted with these particulars?" |
46462 | How were they to judge? |
46462 | I asked, desirous of taking immediate, but not, I hope, unfair advantage of the rascal''s terror;"she who witnessed this lady''s marriage?" |
46462 | I believe you sent this pair of gloves to be cleaned?'' |
46462 | I exclaimed with unfeigned surprise,"why, what on earth can you be waiting here for on such a night as this?" |
46462 | I exclaimed, for the first time breaking silence--"what could there be to reveal?" |
46462 | I hesitated a few seconds, and then said,"I have no great objection; but first, whom have I the honor of addressing?" |
46462 | I presume these are the thousands of causes a- year withdrawn from the superior Courts?" |
46462 | I says,''is that where they hang the men? |
46462 | I then asked him to what intent he had left the notes with the young lady? |
46462 | I transact business now for Mr. Everard Preston: you understand?" |
46462 | I was not aware that you knew him?" |
46462 | I was silent; and presently he gasped:"Wha-- at, what have I said?" |
46462 | I''m come out of Northamptonshire, and I''m quite lonely here, for I do n''t know London at all, and it''s such a mighty big town?'' |
46462 | If thieving be an Art( and who denies that its more subtle and delicate branches deserve to be ranked as one of the Fine Arts? |
46462 | Is he alone?" |
46462 | Is this''administration of justice?''" |
46462 | It''s a funeral, but where''s the grave?" |
46462 | Mr. Smith, senior, ordered his dinner; and Mr. Lloyd and Arthur Smith-- but why need I attempt to relate what_ they_ did? |
46462 | Mr. William Wallace inquired if that was to be the answer he was expected to convey to the Archbishop? |
46462 | Not the Gates, I hope, in the late Bryant affair?" |
46462 | Not_ pretty_ Mary Kingsford now then, I suppose?" |
46462 | Now, have you your memorandum- book ready?" |
46462 | Now, what is the plan of operations for carrying off the booty?" |
46462 | Oh, good luck to you, sir; can you do nothing for me?" |
46462 | On the look out for some of your old friends?'' |
46462 | Perhaps you''ll beckon him over here?'' |
46462 | Perhaps you''ll give us a look in, Butcher?'' |
46462 | Phibbs in the way?'' |
46462 | Presently she said with a sneer,"You are afraid, I suppose?" |
46462 | Rather say you came to improve your acquaintance with the lady yonder, who, I dare say, will not prove ultimately inflexible?" |
46462 | Shepherdson?'' |
46462 | So lucky for me, is it not, since I must go to service? |
46462 | Stay; ca n''t you get assistance?" |
46462 | Still, do you think it would be of any use to sound Rivers? |
46462 | Still, should the clerk recognize me? |
46462 | Surely you are not_ yet_ fallen so low as to be the associate or accomplice of burglars?" |
46462 | Tell me, first of all, what you put in the stocking, you unfortunate blunderer?" |
46462 | The following short dialogue occurred between him and the clerk:--"Pray,"said Mr. Wallace,"where are the Wills kept?" |
46462 | The mysterious stranger makes some enquiry about"any cash?" |
46462 | This premised, is there, think you, anything remarkable in Sir Charles''s demeanor?" |
46462 | This, you will agree, seemed perfectly satisfactory?" |
46462 | Upon Mary replying that she did not comprehend him, his look became absolutely ferocious, and he exclaimed:"Oh, that''s your game, is it? |
46462 | Was Armstrong a drinking, a gaming, or a play- going man? |
46462 | Waters and Emily quite well?" |
46462 | Waters,"she exclaimed, in a changed, palpitating voice, as I was passing forth;"when all is done, you will not forget me?" |
46462 | Waters?" |
46462 | Waters?" |
46462 | What are you going to do with him?'' |
46462 | What can it be?" |
46462 | What could the poor man do? |
46462 | What did he want to search for? |
46462 | What do you say to a glass or two of wine, if only to keep this confounded wind out of our stomachs? |
46462 | What does he give, and how does he dispose of them?" |
46462 | What does the prosecutor say the brooch is worth?" |
46462 | What does_ he_ do here?'' |
46462 | What has_ he_ to do with hope? |
46462 | What is your opinion now of the prospects of the ministry?" |
46462 | What plan of operations do you propose?" |
46462 | What signifies, so you''re happy?" |
46462 | What sort of a person is he?" |
46462 | What was to be done next? |
46462 | What''s the matter dear? |
46462 | What? |
46462 | What? |
46462 | What_ could_ it mean? |
46462 | When the debt appeared to be_ primâ facie_ proved, the Barrister turned to the defendant, and perhaps asked him if he disputed it? |
46462 | Where is she?" |
46462 | Who could have thought it? |
46462 | Who is your friend?" |
46462 | Who would not have pitied Lovell, when, livid with horror and conscious guilt, he vainly tried to say something? |
46462 | Why is this? |
46462 | Why more Police- officers? |
46462 | Why should you doubt me?" |
46462 | Why, what in the name of Mercury could a detachment of the swell- mob be wanting in that country of furze and frieze- coats? |
46462 | Wield?'' |
46462 | Would you discount their twenty thousand a year by even a fraction per cent? |
46462 | Would you do me a favor, and post this for me, as it is so wet?'' |
46462 | You are an English Jew I perceive?" |
46462 | You are doubtless acquainted with the full particulars of the robbery at my residence, Brook Street, last Thursday fortnight?" |
46462 | You are not perhaps acquainted with his handwriting?" |
46462 | You could n''t make it convenient to call again, could you?'' |
46462 | You have every confidence in your maids; but what_ can_ you think? |
46462 | You have heard of this young man''s father?" |
46462 | You have no objection to accompany me to the superintendent?" |
46462 | You have of course an accurate description of the persons of Williams and his wife ready?" |
46462 | You understand?" |
46462 | You understand?" |
46462 | You want to find Jem Martin?" |
46462 | You will not fail me?" |
46462 | _ Barrister._ Will a month do, Mr. Docket? |
46462 | _ Plaintiff''s Attorney._ Your honor will give us speedy recovery? |
46462 | and does he live near here?" |
46462 | and smoke our pipes, do n''t you see? |
46462 | and so on? |
46462 | and they says,''Now you''ll know it agen, wo n''t you?'' |
46462 | and what are you driving at?" |
46462 | he at last stammered, feebly accepting my proffered grasp--"who would have thought of meeting you here?" |
46462 | he burst out,"how are you off for soap? |
46462 | he exclaimed,"what is this?" |
46462 | how are you?'' |
46462 | is his brother here?'' |
46462 | is that you?'' |
46462 | replied Jackson;"why, money of course: what else? |
46462 | roared Sandford,"do you hold your life so cheap?" |
46462 | said the countryman,"Wat vor?" |
46462 | says Mr. Phibbs, again;''can nothing be done?'' |
46462 | screamed the fellow, half dead with fear, and slipping down on a chair;"what shall I do to save my life-- my life?" |
46462 | tall gentleman, with light hair? |
46462 | that''s him in the shop, is it? |
46462 | was it, eh? |
46462 | what''s that?" |
46462 | where the prisoner sat, and each of the other guests? |
48313 | About what? |
48313 | After all,said she,"''tisn''t the money that''s done wrong; why should I punish it?" |
48313 | And I suppose the road''s as free to us as''tis to you? |
48313 | And about the clubs? |
48313 | And are you well enough yet to undertake an odd job in it? |
48313 | And did you ever publish one? |
48313 | And do you know how to lock up a form? |
48313 | And how are you going to publish it? |
48313 | And how far is the pasture? |
48313 | And how many do you think they would sell? |
48313 | And how much will it cost to make a muddle, Edmund Burton? |
48313 | And how much would that cost? |
48313 | And how shall I manage it? |
48313 | And if that other line ended with_ cheek_, would he have to call it a_ league_ from the Four Corners to Lyell street? |
48313 | And is that all? |
48313 | And is that considered all right? |
48313 | And now what color will you have? |
48313 | And now,continued Ned,"how would you go to work to introduce it? |
48313 | And so you got it be goin''after pawnbrokers, and be workin''on Sunday? |
48313 | And the other? |
48313 | And the other? |
48313 | And then what? |
48313 | And water does what to fire? |
48313 | And what do you understand by that? |
48313 | And what do you want me to do about it? |
48313 | And what do you want the ten dollars for? |
48313 | And what is the price of admission? |
48313 | And when ice is melted, it becomes what? |
48313 | And where do they have any that is less slimpsy? |
48313 | And where would be the best place to build it? |
48313 | And who are your actors? |
48313 | And who told Berny Rourke? |
48313 | And who told Lukey Finnerty? |
48313 | And who told Owney Geoghegan? |
48313 | And who told Patsy Rafferty? |
48313 | And who told Teddy Dwyer? |
48313 | And why was n''t that a good plan? |
48313 | And will Jimmy''s have to be tied? |
48313 | And would there be a tub at the other end,said Ned"to catch the passengers that were broken to pieces against the end wall?" |
48313 | And you do n''t get some more next Saturday night? |
48313 | And you probably answer somewhat more readily when they call? |
48313 | And you think I ought to furnish that brother of yours the money necessary to make a proper muddle of this thing? |
48313 | Are you going to get the kites and harness her up again, Fay? |
48313 | Are you sick, Jimmy? |
48313 | Are you trying to ruin the office? |
48313 | Aunty,said he, sympathetically,"do n''t you ever feel afraid of fire?" |
48313 | But I say, Roe,continued Holman,"who in the world could have told them so?" |
48313 | But I suppose he must be hurt, though? |
48313 | But do n''t you suppose,said Phaeton,"that as soon as it was dark, some fellow went out quietly in a little skiff, and dove for the rings? |
48313 | But have you made any other tracings of it besides the one Jack- in- the- Box has? |
48313 | But how are we going to get a lock for this door? |
48313 | But how can I get on again? |
48313 | But how can you set the type? |
48313 | But how did you get out? |
48313 | But if you tell her that, will she let you have the money? |
48313 | But what about the dog? |
48313 | But what are we going to do about that dreadful card? |
48313 | But what is it for? |
48313 | But what is the use of trying to be too smart? 48313 But what use will the car be to him?" |
48313 | But where would our profits come from? |
48313 | But who is going to publish this book for you? |
48313 | But would n''t it use up a cable every time you cut it? |
48313 | But, I suppose you know all about how it''s done? |
48313 | Ca n''t we prevent it? |
48313 | Ca n''t you make him go faster, Fay? |
48313 | Ca n''t you make up your mind to do it, if I double the price? |
48313 | Ca n''t you tell by the feathers? |
48313 | Can you go? |
48313 | Clever fellers, them railroad men,said the chief engineer;"but what''s your machine for?" |
48313 | Could n''t I, at least, pay the doctor''s bill? |
48313 | Could n''t you name it for us? |
48313 | Did he have a gag- bit? |
48313 | Did n''t eh? 48313 Did n''t he say_ pre_servative?" |
48313 | Did n''t you say,said the Dublin boy,"you''d give a dollar to any boy that could beat your machine in a mile run?" |
48313 | Did you hear how they knocked Mr. Glidden''s house and furniture to pieces at the last fire? |
48313 | Did you print this? |
48313 | Did you say the kind_ they_ stuff, or the kind_ of_ stuff? 48313 Did you want to know about my brother Jimmy?" |
48313 | Did, eh? |
48313 | Do n''t you call it bad to go around slyly in the night and nail up every door and window in the house? |
48313 | Do n''t you know better than to pi a form, and then throw the pi into the cases? 48313 Do n''t you know that scissors must be ground on the edge of the blade, not on the side, like a knife? |
48313 | Do n''t you know what dodgers are? |
48313 | Do n''t you see, the ground is holding it? |
48313 | Do n''t you suppose I have provided for that? |
48313 | Do you find many mistakes? |
48313 | Do you know anything about printing? |
48313 | Do you know of anything we can do for him? |
48313 | Do you know the history of Venice? |
48313 | Do you mean to say that you have been buying a font of type with no Es in it? |
48313 | Do you suppose Fay can really make anything out of this machine? |
48313 | Do you take me for a cook? |
48313 | Do you think so? |
48313 | Do you think so? |
48313 | Does your uncle''s horse go very fast? |
48313 | Fay, what sort of wood is this? |
48313 | For the information you kindly gave us about your invention? |
48313 | Gone home with the chariot? |
48313 | Got anything new to- day? |
48313 | Has Phaeton ever been on a horse? |
48313 | Has your Aunt Mercy given you money to make a muddle of it? |
48313 | He''d be sure to say it was; but then what? |
48313 | Horseshoes, or human shoes? |
48313 | How can it have been tried? |
48313 | How can you do it? |
48313 | How could he know what kind of fish it was that robbed his hook? |
48313 | How did it happen? |
48313 | How did you happen to do that? |
48313 | How do you accomplish it? |
48313 | How do you account for that? |
48313 | How do you amuse yourself, Jimmy? |
48313 | How do you do to- day, Jack? |
48313 | How do you know that, young man? |
48313 | How do you propose to get them? |
48313 | How do you think he''d like that, done in two colors? |
48313 | How does it work? |
48313 | How is it? |
48313 | How is that? |
48313 | How is that? |
48313 | How is this, Biddy? |
48313 | How much are they worth? |
48313 | How much for a spy glass? |
48313 | How much have you got? |
48313 | How much is that? |
48313 | How much money do you need for your new muddle? |
48313 | How much money would it take for that? |
48313 | How much powder will you have? |
48313 | How much will it take for a good muddle, Edmund Burton? |
48313 | How much will it take? |
48313 | How so? |
48313 | How so? |
48313 | How so? |
48313 | How so? |
48313 | How will you do it? |
48313 | How would you get them up? |
48313 | I have a fine, clear eye,said another;"ca n''t I help yez aim the pipe?" |
48313 | I know you can smother a small fire with a thick blanket,said Jack,"but how are you going to smother a whole house, when it is in a blaze?" |
48313 | I say,said one of the Dublin boys,"why do n''t you put up the stake before we start?" |
48313 | I suppose in winter you would have the water warmed? |
48313 | I suppose the boys are more numerous than your parents? |
48313 | If I catch one? |
48313 | If your house should take fire in the night, and burn up the stairs the first thing, how would you get out? |
48313 | If-- I-- catch-- one? 48313 Indeed?" |
48313 | Is Professor Adams present? |
48313 | Is it a sign? |
48313 | Is it? |
48313 | Is that the way you''ve ground them all? |
48313 | Is there anything I can do for you to- day? |
48313 | Is this all you have? |
48313 | Is this all, Biddy? |
48313 | Is this the Mr. Burton who was dead long ago? |
48313 | Jack,said Ned, as soon as we arrived at the Box,"did you ever stuff a fish?" |
48313 | Jack,said he,"did you ever publish a book?" |
48313 | Labels? |
48313 | Like what? |
48313 | Mr. Rogers''s boy, eh? |
48313 | Ned,said he,"do n''t you want to lend me the ten dollars that Aunt Mercy gave you last week?" |
48313 | Nobody hurt, I hope? |
48313 | Not know your own name? 48313 Not your name?" |
48313 | Now, how much should you say a fellow would probably get for one of this sort? |
48313 | Of course not,said Phaeton;"but what can you do without Es? |
48313 | Oh, is that you, Fay? |
48313 | Oh, it is n''t prepared yet? |
48313 | Oh, was it? |
48313 | Old shoes? |
48313 | One? |
48313 | Phaeton,said I,"you forgot to throw off my coat when you went to work with the axe, did n''t you?" |
48313 | Phaeton,said he,"will you please stand here and flag a special freight train that will come along in about ten minutes?" |
48313 | Poetry? |
48313 | Run him, will you? |
48313 | Shall I hit him? |
48313 | Should you say as much as a hundred dollars, Jack? |
48313 | Sir? |
48313 | So you''re the one he sends in, are you? |
48313 | Something you want me to furnish money to make a muddle of, I suppose? |
48313 | Soup, or bread- and- milk, for every meal? |
48313 | Suppose it was an accident,said Ned;"the question is,_ whose_ accident was it? |
48313 | That''s all true,said Jack;"but how do you apply it to lightning- rods?" |
48313 | The Bowl System? 48313 The Es are gone?" |
48313 | The kind-- they-- stuff? |
48313 | The question is, are you going to put up the money? |
48313 | The question is, what_ is_ best? |
48313 | Then I suppose you could help yourself to all the capital you want, out of the bowl? |
48313 | Then it has n''t brought you much good luck, so far, has it? |
48313 | Then what in the world is it? 48313 Then what will you do with the fifteen dollars?" |
48313 | Then why did n''t you say so in the first place? |
48313 | Then why did n''t you tell us that before? |
48313 | Then you know something about it? |
48313 | Then you think he will get well? |
48313 | Then, what must we do? |
48313 | These poems?--were you going to publish them? |
48313 | Those look well, do n''t they? |
48313 | To prevent them from burning? |
48313 | Was he? |
48313 | Was it? |
48313 | Was n''t it, Jimmy? |
48313 | Was there a full account of the other ceremonies at that wedding? |
48313 | Well, then, tell us honestly,said Ned,--"where would you introduce it first? |
48313 | Well, then, what do you think is the next best place? |
48313 | Well, then, what''s this? |
48313 | Well, what then? |
48313 | What I want to get at,said Ned,"is this: how much is a fish worth that''s suitable for stuffing?" |
48313 | What about riding over the dog? |
48313 | What are the other things? |
48313 | What are they? |
48313 | What are you doing? 48313 What are you laughing about?" |
48313 | What are you making, Fay? |
48313 | What are you making, Fay? |
48313 | What can we make it of? |
48313 | What can you do? |
48313 | What clubs? |
48313 | What could happen? |
48313 | What did Jack- in- the- Box say to it? |
48313 | What difference does that make? |
48313 | What do I care about going it boots? 48313 What do you call that?" |
48313 | What do you make of that young man? |
48313 | What do you mean by that? |
48313 | What do you mean? |
48313 | What do you mean? |
48313 | What do you mean? |
48313 | What do you say, Fay? |
48313 | What do you think has happened now? |
48313 | What do you think of doing? |
48313 | What do you think of it? |
48313 | What do you want? |
48313 | What does fire do to ice? |
48313 | What does he mean by taking an axe? |
48313 | What does it mean? |
48313 | What feathers? |
48313 | What for? |
48313 | What have you been doing, I should like to know? 48313 What in the world are those boys doing in that barouche?" |
48313 | What is a Limerick hook? |
48313 | What is it? 48313 What is it?" |
48313 | What is it? |
48313 | What is it? |
48313 | What is it? |
48313 | What is it? |
48313 | What is it? |
48313 | What is it? |
48313 | What is poetic license? |
48313 | What is that? |
48313 | What is your name? |
48313 | What is your second invention? |
48313 | What poem did Jimmy write for Isaac Holman? |
48313 | What shall we do? |
48313 | What shall we do? |
48313 | What sort of invention? 48313 What was all that for?" |
48313 | What was it? |
48313 | What were you going to say, Edmund Burton, about poor Jimmy Redmond? |
48313 | What''s new down at your house? |
48313 | What''s that, Edmund Burton? |
48313 | What''s that? |
48313 | What''s that? |
48313 | What''s that? |
48313 | What''s that? |
48313 | What''s the matter? |
48313 | What''s the news, Aunty? |
48313 | What''s the other way of getting the thing into operation? |
48313 | What''s what? |
48313 | What? |
48313 | What? |
48313 | When do you want to go to work? |
48313 | When will it be ready? |
48313 | When will you go? |
48313 | Where are they? |
48313 | Where can we get it? |
48313 | Where did you find it? |
48313 | Where did you get it? |
48313 | Where did you get this, Monkey? |
48313 | Where did you get this? |
48313 | Where is the fly now? |
48313 | Where is the title- page? |
48313 | Where''s Fay? |
48313 | Where''s Patsy? |
48313 | Which way do you want it? |
48313 | Who did the blacksmith work for you, Fay? |
48313 | Who is Jack- in- the- Box? |
48313 | Who rides first? |
48313 | Who was he? |
48313 | Who would want to steal it or damage it? |
48313 | Who''s holding it? |
48313 | Whose chairs are they? |
48313 | Why did n''t you bring the book? |
48313 | Why did you make your ladder so short? |
48313 | Why do n''t you back him? |
48313 | Why do n''t you call yourself George Washington''s boy, while you''re about it? |
48313 | Why do n''t you make him go? |
48313 | Why do n''t you open that gate? |
48313 | Why do n''t you patent it, Edmund Burton? |
48313 | Why do n''t you put the money into the bank? |
48313 | Why is he carrying away that kite? |
48313 | Why not, uncle? |
48313 | Why not? |
48313 | Why not? |
48313 | Why not? |
48313 | Why not? |
48313 | Why not? |
48313 | Why not? |
48313 | Why should I lend you my ten dollars? |
48313 | Why so, Biddy? |
48313 | Why so? |
48313 | Why, do n''t you know that? |
48313 | Why, do n''t you know? |
48313 | Why, do n''t you know? |
48313 | Why, is that all it''s for? |
48313 | Why, what''s the matter? |
48313 | Why? |
48313 | Why? |
48313 | Will it make us a fortune apiece? |
48313 | Will you lend me the money to try it? |
48313 | Will you make those? 48313 Would n''t some people oppose it?" |
48313 | Would you be willing to look at another invention for us? |
48313 | Would, eh? |
48313 | Y- e- s,said Phaeton, with a deep sigh;"and is_ that_ all?" |
48313 | Yes, of course it is,said I;"but what does it mean?" |
48313 | Yes, of course-- why? |
48313 | Yes; but why were they allowed to do so? |
48313 | Yes; why? 48313 You admit that it was bad, then?" |
48313 | You can make money on a book, ca n''t you? |
48313 | You do n''t even know the case, do you? |
48313 | You go up to the couple, and shake hands, and if you''re a girl you kiss the bride-- What did you say? 48313 You mean to let her know that it''s Phaeton''s invention, and not yours?" |
48313 | You? |
48313 | --but"Who rides first?" |
48313 | A new invention?" |
48313 | And besides, what would become of you and Ned? |
48313 | And how do you suppose I am going to print for you, unless I know what to print?" |
48313 | And if there was a mortgage on our tunnel, and they foreclosed it while we were in there, what would become of us? |
48313 | And who would n''t rather have a volume of Jimmy''s poems than a bushel of wheat? |
48313 | And who''s ever going to sit in such awkward- looking old things as those?" |
48313 | Another foolish invention?" |
48313 | Are you going to take a pistol?" |
48313 | But after we''ve left the horse in the pasture, how are we to get back past the dog?" |
48313 | But did none of you call for Miss Glidden?" |
48313 | But how came you to know that about Fay and Jimmy and Holman?" |
48313 | But what of it?" |
48313 | But what of that? |
48313 | But, by the way, Fay, what are you going to do with the twenty dollars you''ve won? |
48313 | Ca n''t you tell them to get Dr. Campbell? |
48313 | Do n''t you know me?" |
48313 | Do n''t you see the paint peeling off already?" |
48313 | Do n''t you understand? |
48313 | Do poets ever repair poetry, as well as make it new?" |
48313 | Do you suppose anything can have happened to him?" |
48313 | Do you think Jimmy''s croaking artery will have to be tied up, Jack? |
48313 | Do you think of any good way in which I could help him with a little capital?" |
48313 | Have n''t you ever noticed that the smaller and snarlier and more worthless a dog is, the surer it is to be called Prince?" |
48313 | Have you given out many of these cards?" |
48313 | Have you made a muddle yet?" |
48313 | How are you? |
48313 | How does he suppose he''s going to make men of us, if we never begin to do anything manly?" |
48313 | How should we ever get out?" |
48313 | How''s that?" |
48313 | However, he soon plucked up courage, and said, with a roguish twinkle:"Mother, will you please lend me two dollars of my money?" |
48313 | I observed that he wore a broad belt of red leather, on which was inscribed the legend: WE HAVE CAN AND WILL"Monkey,"said I,"what''s that?" |
48313 | I suppose you both know what a mortar is?" |
48313 | Is n''t there some way to make more money out of it?" |
48313 | Is this the manuscript?" |
48313 | Of course it was_ totus dexter_,--and who''s the boy that uses that classic expression? |
48313 | Or would you go slow, and try it first in this town, on a rather small scale?" |
48313 | Rogers''before, were you?" |
48313 | Still, I was comforted that he had not merely said,"Who rides?" |
48313 | Suppose he has n''t any show, and never will have one-- what of it? |
48313 | Suppose you came to the five mechanical powers, and the line before ended with_ sticks_, what could you do? |
48313 | This excited a laugh of derision from another, who inquired whether the man with the fine, clear eye"did n''t know a pipe from a chube?" |
48313 | What do you suppose could have become of the Es?" |
48313 | What doctor do they have?" |
48313 | What does this mean?" |
48313 | What odds? |
48313 | What sort of a railroad would that be?" |
48313 | What then? |
48313 | What then? |
48313 | What will you take?" |
48313 | What''s that?" |
48313 | What''s the harm in that?" |
48313 | What_ do_ you mean?" |
48313 | When I was about to sit down at the tea- table, that evening, Mother exclaimed:"What in the world ails your hands?" |
48313 | Where have you been all this time?" |
48313 | Where would you advise us to put it first?" |
48313 | Which do you think you would like best, Jimmy?" |
48313 | Who do you think would be the best person for him to talk with?" |
48313 | Who told you so?" |
48313 | Who''d want to read about such a dreadful thing? |
48313 | Why did you always refuse to look at a newspaper?" |
48313 | Wo n''t the printer make it himself?" |
48313 | Would you go to New York, and build it under Broadway at once? |
48313 | You admit that?" |
48313 | and get all wet?" |
48313 | aspire t ove regard? |
48313 | exclaimed Holman,"does she think I''m Hercules?" |
48313 | or do we buy them?" |
48313 | said Ned, interrupting,"the little yellow cur that Joe bought of Clam Jimmy for a six- pence?" |
48313 | said Ned,"or only one fortune, to be divided up among the company?" |
48313 | said Ned--"merely your own amusement?" |
48313 | said Phaeton,"why did you print this thing before we had seen it?" |
48313 | what did your brother do in the printing- office?" |
48313 | |+-------------------+"Where''s your show going to be?" |
38144 | ''What the devil''s wrong with you? 38144 A good memory is useful; but do you wish me to return the compliment?" |
38144 | Afraid of committing yourself? 38144 Air you poor and wicked?" |
38144 | All went off quietly? |
38144 | And Rancher Ormesby? |
38144 | And so you are going back to- morrow to your cattle? |
38144 | And we are not likely to be acquainted? 38144 And what do you gain-- the right to work still harder?" |
38144 | And where did you come in? |
38144 | And you are waiting revenge? |
38144 | Any partners? |
38144 | Are n''t you a little premature? 38144 Are n''t you asking useless questions? |
38144 | Are you not taking a big risk, and why do n''t you exploit a safer district? |
38144 | Are you sure you are not mistaken, Rancher Ormesby? 38144 Ay?" |
38144 | Bad news? |
38144 | But a few of what you would call British prejudices still cling to me, and I take cigars and things only from my friends-- you see? |
38144 | But are we not drifting, as we have done before, into a profitless discussion of subjects neither of us knows much about? 38144 But in regard to the other, would not the effort be proof enough? |
38144 | But what about the profit? |
38144 | But what about the stock? 38144 But what ails ye that ye''re drawing bridle, Harry Ormesby?" |
38144 | But you are following him still, are you not? |
38144 | But, if there is anything going on, say, some plan for the exploitation of this district in opposition to Lane, can I not take my part in it? |
38144 | Ca n''t you see that if I bolted now it would suit nobody better than Lane? 38144 Ca n''t you see the best this news may have made possible to me?" |
38144 | Ca n''t you speak a little more directly? |
38144 | Can you do it, Harry? |
38144 | Can you hear us? 38144 Can you not be satisfied with the possibility of your being mistaken?" |
38144 | Can you not do the first thing I ask you without asking questions? |
38144 | Could anybody doubt it after to- day? |
38144 | Did he look pleased at your diligence? |
38144 | Did the confounded rascal know there was a warrant out? |
38144 | Did you ever see a silver match- box in his possession, and, if so, could you describe it? |
38144 | Did you get the stock clear? |
38144 | Did you know that you could have earned a good many dollars by telling the police as much? |
38144 | Did you see anything except groceries in it? |
38144 | Did you see him lead the horses out? |
38144 | Did you suggest that he should? |
38144 | Did you tell Miss Haldane you were running a risk? |
38144 | Did you twice do a great kindness for me? |
38144 | Do n''t you know that Sally will leave here as Mrs. Thorn in a few weeks or so? |
38144 | Do n''t you think everybody should make the most of all that''s in them? |
38144 | Do n''t you think the trespass was almost justifiable? |
38144 | Do ye know of any reason why he should have drowned himself? |
38144 | Do you accept the offer? |
38144 | Do you figure Lane would come out hundreds of miles for your old crockery? 38144 Do you know anything of this?" |
38144 | Do you know that it is a little disconcerting to be watched when at work? |
38144 | Do you know that you are destroying a good many dollars''worth of harness? |
38144 | Do you know that you are disgracing me forever, Miss Haldane? |
38144 | Do you know where Redmond is? |
38144 | Do you know where little boys who tell all they hear go to? |
38144 | Do you know where the man is now? |
38144 | Do you know who he is, Ormesby? |
38144 | Do you think this frost will hold, Ormesby? |
38144 | Do you think you can run up a contra account in that way, Ormesby? |
38144 | Do you wish me to say that you would look well in anything? |
38144 | Feel more like letting me foreclose on you? |
38144 | Feel quite sure? |
38144 | Feeling pretty fit this morning? |
38144 | For instance? |
38144 | For instance? |
38144 | Gotsh any papersh to prove objection? |
38144 | Had ye any other hired man than Wilkins? |
38144 | Has Cotton returned? |
38144 | Has Dixon been down here? |
38144 | Has he got a hold on your master, too? 38144 Has sudden prosperity also rendered you incapable of expressing your thoughts in speech?" |
38144 | Have ye seen him? |
38144 | Have you any authority to prevent me? |
38144 | Have you forgotten me? |
38144 | Have you forgotten the virtues of civilized self- restraint? |
38144 | Have you no information whatever as to why he has absented himself? |
38144 | Have you not forgotten that evening yet? |
38144 | Have you seen anything of Sally? |
38144 | How could that be? 38144 How could that be?" |
38144 | How did ye happen to come to Gaspard''s Trail, Henry Ormesby? |
38144 | How did you come here instead of Gardiner; and how do you know there is anything for you to trouble about? |
38144 | How did you get me out? |
38144 | How does this fit me? |
38144 | How long have you set up as a model of discretion, Steel? 38144 How often have you seen me?" |
38144 | How was it that when they had, or should have had, time enough, Henderson''s man and Redmond did not stop the cattle bunching in the fence? 38144 How?" |
38144 | I ca n''t offer you advice? |
38144 | I dare say we might make a workable arrangement, and I could n''t find a better partner; but have n''t you Sally''s interests to consider? |
38144 | I hope you are not badly hurt? |
38144 | I hope your health is not failing you again, sir? |
38144 | I mean, has he a tolerably level head, or is he one of the discipline- made machines who can comprehend nothing not included in their code of rules? |
38144 | I owe my escape solely to a lady''s courage and your skill, Dixon; but why did n''t you try to implicate Lane? |
38144 | I presume my housekeeper did not eject you without some reason? |
38144 | I presume you have no objections to my wishing you good luck? |
38144 | I should never have forgiven myself if you had been injured; but are you-- quite-- sure that you are none the worse? |
38144 | I want to ask why you spoke as you did a little while ago? |
38144 | I''m obliged to you, Redmond, for suggesting that you would take my draft along; but why did n''t you come in and take supper with the rest? 38144 I?" |
38144 | If it isn''t--and Steel frowned at the harness he was mending--"what will we poor fools do?" |
38144 | Is Miss Haldane or your father on board the train? |
38144 | Is anyone willing to offer security? |
38144 | Is it all worth while, and how long have you been so ambitious? |
38144 | Is it fair to ask, are you satisfied with-- this? |
38144 | Is it necessary for me to read any more of these? |
38144 | Is it permissible to ask any questions? |
38144 | Is it quite impossible for you to hurry? |
38144 | Is not all that water getting dangerous? |
38144 | Is not that sufficient to justify your resting a little? |
38144 | Is there anyone willing to exceed this ridiculous figure? 38144 Is there nothing among all those papers worth your attention, or have you taken an interest in embroidery?" |
38144 | It is a beautiful piece of maple, and why do you wish to destroy it? |
38144 | It is no business of mine, Cotton, but in return for your compliments I ca n''t help asking, do you think Haldane would appreciate it? |
38144 | It is not very convincing-- but what could you say? 38144 It was my man Wilkins warned you?" |
38144 | It''s a plain question-- how does this thing fit me? |
38144 | Kind of surprise party, is n''t it, Ormesby? |
38144 | Man, did I not tell ye? |
38144 | May I ask why you bid at all for my recent property? 38144 May one compliment you on your powers of memory? |
38144 | Must you always make a bargain? 38144 No; you can stop out there-- isn''t all the prairie big enough for you? |
38144 | No? |
38144 | No? |
38144 | No? |
38144 | Noo will ye answer? 38144 Of course you arranged with Haldane to send you assistance?" |
38144 | Particular kind of trooper that one, is n''t he? 38144 Peeling potatoes?" |
38144 | Planning your campaign for next year? |
38144 | Presumably you find Miss Lucille understands you better? |
38144 | Quaint, is n''t it, that it should be a man of Ormesby''s kind who most helped to bring me up? 38144 Quite sure?" |
38144 | Say, are you doing this for a wager, or are some mad cow- chasers after you? |
38144 | Say, officer, had n''t you better begin? |
38144 | Say, was you forgotten when brains were given out? 38144 Shall we turn back?" |
38144 | Should n''t it be the reverse? 38144 Supposing the Bonaventure brand had not been on that draft, and Lane''s men retained possession, what would ye have done?" |
38144 | Thank God!--but where is Beatrice? |
38144 | That is plain; but what results from it? |
38144 | The horses, too? 38144 The management of Bonaventure?" |
38144 | The question is, what do you want from me? |
38144 | Then is there no explanation? |
38144 | Then suppose one admitted you had surmised correctly? |
38144 | Then what do you want to go back for, anyway? |
38144 | Then what''s the matter with the cheerfulness? |
38144 | Then--and Ailin Redmond seemed to shiver a little--"do you think there are no ghosts on the prairie?" |
38144 | Then, if I may ask the question, why not abandon altogether an occupation which tries you, sir? |
38144 | There is no need for my poor compliments after the verdict of the multitude; but did you sing that song to us? |
38144 | There''s a little favor I want to ask of you, Ormesby, but I suppose you are all in one another''s confidence? |
38144 | They are kind people in this country; but how could the women worry you? 38144 They could n''t put him in prison?" |
38144 | Think you could have done it any better yourself? |
38144 | To one of the superior sex; but are you not forgetting that this season the heavens fought for you? 38144 Visit Bonaventure?" |
38144 | Was anybody calling? |
38144 | Was n''t it foolish of you? |
38144 | We have not the stock to sell; and would n''t it be a trifle hard on innocent shareholders? |
38144 | What are ye wanting, boys? |
38144 | What business had ye with him? |
38144 | What can this mean? 38144 What did they say next?" |
38144 | What did you think about our guests? |
38144 | What did you think of Sally? 38144 What did you think of it?" |
38144 | What do you mean? 38144 What do you think of this amusement, Ormesby? |
38144 | What has brought you here? |
38144 | What has happened, Mr. Ormesby? 38144 What has surprised you?" |
38144 | What have you done to come to this? |
38144 | What in heaven''s name brought-- you-- to Canada, Charlie Cotton, and thrust you in my way? 38144 What is his business?" |
38144 | What is the meaning of this, Cotton? |
38144 | What kept you so long, Ormesby? 38144 What mischief has she been contriving now?" |
38144 | What place is this? |
38144 | What reason have you to infer that any other man was concerned in the purchase of Gaspard''s Trail? |
38144 | What were ye meaning, Rancher Ormesby? |
38144 | What were ye meaning? |
38144 | What were ye meaning? |
38144 | What would he do with a horse in two foot of snow? 38144 What''s that?" |
38144 | What''s the use of talking justice to the poor man when he''s ground down by the thief with capital? 38144 When did you last see the match- box?" |
38144 | Where have you been, Sally, and where did you get the horse? |
38144 | Where have you been? 38144 Where''s that blamed officer? |
38144 | Where''s the boundary? |
38144 | Where''s the sergeant? |
38144 | Whersh you keep them? |
38144 | Which gates? 38144 Which way?" |
38144 | While ye did nothing Trooper Cotton came in to help ye? |
38144 | Who could suspect in such a slender and fragile person the power she possesses to banish gloom and poverty? 38144 Who is this man? |
38144 | Who was the first man ye met when ye went out? |
38144 | Who were ye meaning? |
38144 | Who''s coming with me to the stable, boys? |
38144 | Who''s that? |
38144 | Why are you keeping in the background, Corporal Cotton? 38144 Why ca n''t you explain them then? |
38144 | Why did n''t one of the others waken me? 38144 Why did n''t one of you get hold of him and make him talk next day?" |
38144 | Why did ye not seize him or raise the alarm? |
38144 | Why did you bring Miss Haldane, Boone? 38144 Why did you not tell me so earlier?" |
38144 | Why do n''t you ask her, then? |
38144 | Why? |
38144 | Why? |
38144 | Will Miss Haldane return to Bonaventure? |
38144 | Will it ever be built? |
38144 | Will you come down? |
38144 | Will you go away and leave him to me? |
38144 | Will you listen to me for two minutes, sir? |
38144 | Will you please tell us, Miss Redmond, how far you can allow us to make use of this? |
38144 | Will you shove the centerboard down by the iron handle, and then take hold of the tiller, Miss Haldane? |
38144 | Will you tell me how you came here? |
38144 | Will you tell us if you opened that case? |
38144 | Will you walk back to the house with me? |
38144 | Wo n''t you try to persuade her, Ormesby? |
38144 | Would n''t the Port Arthur freight do? |
38144 | Would one naturally do so when she asked a favor? |
38144 | Would you, for instance, quietly back out of a conflict with some wealthy combine and leave your opponents a free hand to collect the plunder? |
38144 | Ye had a visit from Lane yesterday? |
38144 | Ye were here when he came in, Rancher Ormesby? |
38144 | You are Rancher Ormesby, whose horse I borrowed, I presume? |
38144 | You are a citizen of this place, or have some local standing? |
38144 | You are growing quite smart, Ormesby; but is n''t it a pity you did n''t display your acumen earlier? 38144 You are still so afraid of Lane that you would risk bringing fresh sorrow on that poor girl in order to protect yourself?" |
38144 | You are sure about the oil tins? 38144 You ask too many questions-- are you not yet content? |
38144 | You borrowed from a bank? |
38144 | You have a barometer in the station, have n''t you? |
38144 | You know the prisoner, Ormesby? |
38144 | You own a tolerably extensive holding in Crane Valley, do n''t you? |
38144 | You saw where my father put the book Miss Redmond gave him? |
38144 | You think Lane had a hand in his disappearance? |
38144 | You were far too generous; but ca n''t one of us take in the papers and get the money? |
38144 | You''re not mad? |
38144 | You''re the man who used to own this place, are n''t you? |
38144 | Your task? |
38144 | ''Did you ever sleep in a mosquito muskeg or cut hay in a dried- out slough?'' |
38144 | ''Feel like peeling half a sackful?'' |
38144 | A cigar? |
38144 | All this flashed through my mind as I looked into the wreaths of smoke, and then Haldane spoke:"Have you come across that photographer fellow lately?" |
38144 | Am I quite certain, or can I offer any explanation? |
38144 | And Steel proceeded:"Then why does n''t he sail in and take all he''s entitled to?" |
38144 | And the sergeant asked again:"When and where did ye last see him?" |
38144 | Any takers?" |
38144 | Apparently the malefactor got away, Sergeant Mackay?" |
38144 | Are you aware that you hold a warrant for me?" |
38144 | Are you badly hurt?" |
38144 | Are you coming back, Ormesby? |
38144 | Are you disposed to let the horses roast while we quarrel?" |
38144 | Are you going East?" |
38144 | Are you going out with the train?" |
38144 | Are you going to send any copies to your people in England, Cotton?" |
38144 | Are you going to try the crossing, too?" |
38144 | Are you going to turn police trooper, Sally?" |
38144 | Are you prepared to protect your property, Ormesby?" |
38144 | Are you sorry I did not lay a decent stake, or have you been infected by Lane?" |
38144 | Are you still content?" |
38144 | As good as your troopers, are n''t they? |
38144 | At length, however, she asked, with a half- nervous laugh:"Did you ever feel, Mr. Ormesby, that somebody you could not see was watching you?" |
38144 | Blamed hard luck, is n''t it?" |
38144 | Boys, you''ll remember the night we brought Redmond home?" |
38144 | Bronzed faces were turned anxiously upon him when he was asked:"Did the prisoner volunteer any statement, or offer resistance?" |
38144 | But how did you get them?" |
38144 | But who is Ted?" |
38144 | But who''s coming along now?" |
38144 | Ca n''t you ever talk straight like a sensible man?" |
38144 | Ca n''t you see that I''m Trooper Cotton, and must skulk away a deserter unless I arrest you?" |
38144 | Ca n''t you see that he could force us to give the papers up? |
38144 | Ca n''t you see that we could beat you if it came to testimony? |
38144 | Ca n''t you see the others?" |
38144 | Ca n''t you see you have n''t the ghost of a show?" |
38144 | Ca n''t you stir around and pull anything clear of harm''s way, boys?" |
38144 | Can the law change the seasons for ye, or protect the careless from their own improvidence? |
38144 | Can you conceive such a possibility?" |
38144 | Can you consider such a desire either uncommon or surprising?" |
38144 | Come to see the last of it?" |
38144 | Corporal Cotton, will you inquire if your superior has finished his business, and tell him that I am waiting?" |
38144 | Cotton?" |
38144 | Curious way to ask a favor, is n''t it? |
38144 | Did they all get through?" |
38144 | Did ye know him?" |
38144 | Did you ever hear about the fool bullfrog and the ox, Rancher Ormesby?" |
38144 | Did you ever hear of Rancher Dane, who stripped himself of all his possessions to advance the career of a now popular singer? |
38144 | Do n''t you know us yet? |
38144 | Do n''t you think that we who live idly in the cities owe a good deal to them?" |
38144 | Do ye know how he came into the river?" |
38144 | Do ye know why this man ye had dealings with should wish to destroy himself?" |
38144 | Do ye usually nail your stable or cut your own head open, Rancher Ormesby?" |
38144 | Do you believe it?" |
38144 | Do you feel like smoking, Ormesby?" |
38144 | Do you know it''s ten o''clock, Sally?" |
38144 | Do you know that the education you mentioned is not yet quite finished?" |
38144 | Do you know that you have shamed me, Harry Ormesby?" |
38144 | Do you know the bureau you smashed in cost me sixty dollars, Ormesby?" |
38144 | Do you know where he is?" |
38144 | Do you know who he is?" |
38144 | Do you mind telling me what you gave for this place?" |
38144 | Do you really think it would please them?" |
38144 | Do you think any settler in this region would take money-- and Lane offered a round sum-- for betraying me?" |
38144 | Do you wish to see him?" |
38144 | Even Mackay winced under certain allusions, and when I asked him:"Am I permitted to talk to my housekeeper alone?" |
38144 | Even if that had been possible, how far would one suspicion count against all that the girl in England has done for me? |
38144 | Feel uneasy about the explosion now that you have helped to fire the train?" |
38144 | Found ye anything, Trooper Cotton?" |
38144 | Getting late, is n''t it? |
38144 | Had n''t we better come straight to business?" |
38144 | Had you not better tell him while I stay here?" |
38144 | Haldane met me presently, and his tone was cordial as he said:"Where are you thinking of spending the night?" |
38144 | Have I not done my best?" |
38144 | Have you any objection to according me a private interview?" |
38144 | Have you any word of him?" |
38144 | Have you been studying detective literature latterly?" |
38144 | Have you done anything to be ashamed of?" |
38144 | Have you got any in writing?" |
38144 | Have you got your own fixed?" |
38144 | Have you not found it so, Miss Steel?" |
38144 | Have you seen anything of Foster Lane during the last week or two?" |
38144 | His comment was followed by a query from another disappointed individual:"Say, what about the gophers?" |
38144 | How did you get this, Cotton?" |
38144 | How did you manage at the depot, Sally?" |
38144 | How did you manage it?" |
38144 | How does it strike you?" |
38144 | How long did it take you to break your troopers in? |
38144 | How long have I been ill, and has any rain fallen?" |
38144 | How long might it take you to reach the frontier? |
38144 | How many did?" |
38144 | However, the question now is: how are we going to use them?" |
38144 | I asked, and the girl answered with some reluctance:"Yes; was it not natural that I should?" |
38144 | I bent my head, and seeing that he was not averse to speech, said quietly:"You come here sometimes? |
38144 | I did not answer, but grew uneasy, seeing that he could not take a hint; and the girl continued:"Are they fond of swimming?" |
38144 | I laughed, perhaps somewhat hollowly, for the child commented:"Wo n''t you do that again? |
38144 | I presume you are not above taking a hint from me?" |
38144 | I roared"Is Thorn behind you?" |
38144 | I suppose there is no other person selling?" |
38144 | I''d sooner do that than carry over-- see?" |
38144 | If I remember Mrs. Leyland correctly, you come from the land of promise, do n''t you?" |
38144 | If you take the wagon I hired what am I to do?" |
38144 | In any case, he calmly handed book and paper back to Boone with the careless comment:"You thought of that? |
38144 | In the meantime, are you coming back to Bonaventure with me?" |
38144 | Is he another broken- up British baronet''s youngest son, or-- because they only raise his kind in the old country-- what has the fellow done?" |
38144 | Is he dead?'' |
38144 | Is it not enough?" |
38144 | Is it not possible for the monotony and drudgery to drag one down to a steadily sinking level?" |
38144 | Is it permissible to ask how you managed in respect to capital?" |
38144 | Is it you, Boone, we have been chasing all day?" |
38144 | Is it you; and what is the meaning of this mummery?" |
38144 | Is n''t it a little unnecessary to remind me of all that I have lost?" |
38144 | Is n''t it time to begin?" |
38144 | Is n''t that good enough for you?" |
38144 | Is n''t there a race meeting somewhere about this place to- day?" |
38144 | Is that you, Ormesby?" |
38144 | Is the horse all right?" |
38144 | It is not asking too much, is it?" |
38144 | It may have been fancy, but a faint angry sparkle seemed to creep into Miss Haldane''s eyes as she answered:"Are there no others? |
38144 | It was one evening at Bonaventure, was it not?" |
38144 | It''s my opinion-- you do n''t want opinions? |
38144 | Just how far can you and the men behind you go?" |
38144 | Leyland?" |
38144 | Loyal? |
38144 | Mackay appeared to meditate before he spoke again:"Where did ye meet him, and what did he say?" |
38144 | Meanwhile, are you open to train some of the Bonaventure colts, and look after my surplus stock on a profit- division basis? |
38144 | Noo will ye hear reason, boys, or will I wire for a squadron to convince ye? |
38144 | Now had n''t you better explain what you want with me?" |
38144 | Now, boys, are any of ye willing to take Niven home?" |
38144 | Now, had n''t you better consider your decision?" |
38144 | Now, what I want to ask you is, how''s Lane going to turn me out if I hold on to the place? |
38144 | Of course you are aware that Lane holds a power of attachment against you?" |
38144 | Ormesby ye can not have, and will ye shame your own credit and me?" |
38144 | Ormesby?" |
38144 | Ormesby?" |
38144 | Ormesby?" |
38144 | Ormesby?" |
38144 | Ormesby?" |
38144 | Ormesby?" |
38144 | Receiving a negative answer, he turned towards the trooper:"Exactly what did you hear at the hotel?" |
38144 | Say, I wonder did you know those old canvas overalls drawn in by the leggings are picturesque and become you? |
38144 | Say, ca n''t we sit down and enjoy it a little?" |
38144 | Say, did you strike Niven for compensation?" |
38144 | Say, how long was it since you had a square meal, anyway? |
38144 | Say, what are you going to do with that big hasp- bar, Sally?" |
38144 | Sergeant, you have the power to grant me a week''s leave of absence?" |
38144 | Somebody was steadily taking up the stock we offered, and when, for the fourth time, Haldane had answered my question,"Any sign of weakness yet?" |
38144 | Still, I should like to ask you one question-- how did your cattle get inside the fence?" |
38144 | Still,"and Lucille grew grave again,"would it hurt you very much if I said I could not listen because I feared you were only dreaming this time, too?" |
38144 | Strange, is n''t it, that the simple are sometimes shrewder than the wise?" |
38144 | Suppose it was Dixon who gave you the pointers? |
38144 | Suppose that man goes back on Lane? |
38144 | Surely nobody has any right to drive off cattle and horses that do n''t belong to him?" |
38144 | The kettle''s boiling; but have you been practicing for a strong- man circus, Leyland?" |
38144 | The voices grew louder, the group swelled, and I started at the call:"Any more of you with Territories to sell?" |
38144 | Then it was with a gasp I said:"Wo n''t you get me a little water?" |
38144 | Then the younger man turned to me:"Do you happen to know anything about seamanship?" |
38144 | Then, as she looked up again, the blood came back, mantling the clear skin, and she said, brokenly:"I fell out of the wagon, did I not? |
38144 | There was a murmur of assent from the bystanders, but the sergeant, disregarding it, spoke again:"Did ye meet the freighter?" |
38144 | They would n''t give you the money, and if they did, how would that get over the fact that I''m lying here helpless? |
38144 | Wanting any little pictures of yourself to send home to friends in the old country?" |
38144 | Was that not rather the action of a lunatic?" |
38144 | We will ask the doctor; and have you any right to place obstacles in the way of Mr. Ormesby''s recovery?'' |
38144 | Well, he''s recorded owner, is n''t he? |
38144 | Were they large or small-- and did you ever see them or the groceries again?" |
38144 | Whasher foolin''for? |
38144 | What ails ye at the service anyway?" |
38144 | What are you gaping at? |
38144 | What are you thinking now?" |
38144 | What crime had he committed that he should be hunted so pitilessly?" |
38144 | What do you propose to do?" |
38144 | What do you want with Crane Valley?" |
38144 | What do you want with him?" |
38144 | What do you want with it?" |
38144 | What has the fellow who borrowed her done?" |
38144 | What is the usual term of detention for such offenses?" |
38144 | What is your program?" |
38144 | What kind of man is he?" |
38144 | What shall we talk about?" |
38144 | What was it ye were observing, Foreman Thorn?" |
38144 | What was your business with him?" |
38144 | What''s your idea of the West? |
38144 | When Haldane had lighted a cigar he took a roll of paper off the table and tossed it across to me, saying,"Is that your work, Ormesby?" |
38144 | Where are they now?" |
38144 | Where did you spring from? |
38144 | Where is the bailer?" |
38144 | Where''s your hired man; and is there nothing better worth saving than these?" |
38144 | Who is hot- headed now?" |
38144 | Who was it sent for you?" |
38144 | Who will see to your sowing-- and will you stay there long?" |
38144 | Who''ll help me lift him in? |
38144 | Who''s next-- or maybe you only brought one man along?" |
38144 | Why could n''t it have happened on the return journey?" |
38144 | Why did ye not split them up?" |
38144 | Why should I know? |
38144 | Why"--and her tone grew serious enough--"do you not crush the man or men who are doing so much mischief in our vicinity?" |
38144 | Will ye walk to the house with me?" |
38144 | Will you and the trooper try one of these?" |
38144 | Will you return to- night?" |
38144 | Will you stand behind me? |
38144 | Will you surrender quietly?" |
38144 | Wo n''t you get me supper instead of worrying me?" |
38144 | Wo n''t you go on and bring the story down to the present?" |
38144 | Wo n''t you run both places and make me a kind of foreman with a partner''s interest?" |
38144 | Wo n''t you wish me luck?" |
38144 | Women are very well in their own place, are they not? |
38144 | Would any man spend the best years of his life striving for what he did not want?" |
38144 | Would ye prefer a charge against them, Ormesby?" |
38144 | Ye can identify him, all of ye?" |
38144 | Ye will let us have the horses, Miss Haldane?" |
38144 | You are ready to redeem the mortgage on Gaspard''s Trail?" |
38144 | You ca n''t think of any underhand trick he might have played you lately?" |
38144 | You do n''t think I could possibly have had any hand in that?" |
38144 | You look positively haggard?" |
38144 | You sent word you wanted to talk to me?" |
38144 | You will remember how, on the eve of battle, Shakespeare''s ghosts prophesied to one man ruin and to another victory?" |
38144 | You''re not overrich, either, are you? |
38144 | You''ve had your papers, and did n''t find anything to kick against, Ormesby?" |
38144 | Your superiors are punctilious, are they not?" |
17180 | ''Adn''t I better tell Mrs. Mummery to put the blue bedroom in order and''ave plenty of''ot water?... |
17180 | ''Aystack? |
17180 | ''Ere you,he said-- he had n''t much respect for Borkins and made no attempt to hide the fact--"what the dooce''as become of his lordship''s pypers? |
17180 | A regular right- hand man you are, eh, Mr. Narkom? 17180 Ai n''t there? |
17180 | Among the uneducated-- what would you? 17180 And he came back?" |
17180 | And how did you discover that Brellier was the''Master''in question? |
17180 | And that they have nothing whatever to do with the vanishing of Wynne and Collins? |
17180 | And then-- what next, Sir Nigel? |
17180 | And these two newcomers? 17180 And what does he do with all this gold, you ask? |
17180 | And what then, Mr. Narkom? 17180 And what then?" |
17180 | And where, then, does the manager live, if not over the bank itself? |
17180 | And who the devil are you? |
17180 | And yet you can not recall the actual remark that your uncle made, Miss Brellier? |
17180 | And''e would n''t''arf be astonished, would''e, sir?... 17180 Any news for me? |
17180 | Any proof? |
17180 | Any restrictions? |
17180 | Are you fit to be about? |
17180 | Been seein''the country-- eh? 17180 Believe it, man? |
17180 | Bit of a sport, ai n''t she, guv''nor? |
17180 | But what I means is, what sort er boats? 17180 But what_ is_ marsh gas, Mr.--Headland?" |
17180 | But, sir,he whispered in a hoarse undertone,"you wo n''t go a- knocking about alone, will yer? |
17180 | But--The coroner''s voice was low- pitched, incredulous,"are you trying to tell us you fired a shot that night, Miss Brellier?" |
17180 | By the way, Nigel,he asked suddenly,"is n''t there some ghost story or other pertaining to your district? |
17180 | Ca n''t you use your eyes? 17180 Coming?" |
17180 | D''yer think I''d be such a dirty blighter as ter let you go dahn there-- p''raps ter your very death-- alone? 17180 Did I bring you here as a friend and give you every opportunity to work on this strange business, to have you arraign me as a murderer? |
17180 | Did n''t you? |
17180 | Did you see his face, lad? |
17180 | Did you''ear, sir? |
17180 | Do n''t know,he said laconically,"and if that were true, where are the bodies?... |
17180 | Do n''t think much uv this''ere passage, anyway, do you? |
17180 | Do n''t you know that it''s not safe to be in this district after nightfall? 17180 Do n''t you think your language is a trifle-- er-- overstrong, Wynne?" |
17180 | Do you know Dacre Wynne? |
17180 | Eh-- what? 17180 Found''em? |
17180 | Gen''leman''ere yet? |
17180 | Gone, sir? 17180 Got a penknife, West?" |
17180 | Happen you do n''t unnerstan''the business? 17180 Have I?" |
17180 | He said it was business-- what would you? 17180 How did they meet their death?" |
17180 | How do you mean, sir? |
17180 | How goes it to- night, sir? 17180 How goes it? |
17180 | However did you get to this part of the world? 17180 I may smoke,''Toinette? |
17180 | I suppose, Bennett, that I shall be allowed to see Miss Brellier? 17180 I take it that you had had what you term''words''since that fatal date?" |
17180 | I-- I-- What can you know about me, but that I''ave been in the employment of this family nearly all my life? |
17180 | I-- I-- damn it, Tony, you do n''t believe it, do you? |
17180 | In time, Petrie? |
17180 | Indeed? |
17180 | Is it of small calibre? |
17180 | Is that so, Methuselah? |
17180 | Is there not a loophole_ here_, sir, by which Sir Nigel might be saved? 17180 Is this true, my man?" |
17180 | It belongs to some member of your household, Miss Brellier? |
17180 | Like it, old man? |
17180 | M''Lud,he said clearly,"may I ask a favour of the court? |
17180 | Mate on the square with you, I s''pose? 17180 Meaning me?" |
17180 | Mr. Brellier, is it not? 17180 Mr. Wynne, sir? |
17180 | My uncle, Borkins? 17180 Nice sort of place for the Squire of the Manor to be disporting himself, is n''t it?" |
17180 | Now I wonder what the dickens?... |
17180 | Now why did he make that bloomer about dates, I wonder? 17180 Now, what the dickens...?" |
17180 | Oh, Nigel lives round here, does he? |
17180 | Oh? |
17180 | On the Saltfleet Road, eh? |
17180 | Peaceful night, last night, eh, Borkins? |
17180 | Pretty awful, is n''t it? 17180 Rather of a surprise, I must admit; is n''t it?" |
17180 | Reason for_ killing_ him? 17180 S''welp me, you chaps, ai n''t none uv you a- goin''ter lend a''and to a mate wot''s out uv a job? |
17180 | See that stuff in there? 17180 Shall I show the lady in?" |
17180 | Sir Nigel, sir-- I--"When did Collins go? |
17180 | Sir Nigel, sir? 17180 So Sir Nigel was no good friend of this man Wynne''s, then?" |
17180 | So much for yer Lunnon policeman, eh? 17180 So that''s it, is it? |
17180 | So you waited until things looked a little blacker for him, and then decided to cast your creditable scruples to the wind? |
17180 | So? 17180 So? |
17180 | So? |
17180 | Strangers, ai n''t you? |
17180 | Then perhaps the man Stark killed him, after all? |
17180 | Then why the devil did n''t you tell me last night? |
17180 | Then you do n''t believe me? |
17180 | There is nothing-- one can do? |
17180 | There was no need for thanks-- none at all.... What is your opinion of the Towers, Miss Brellier? |
17180 | This revolver is yours? |
17180 | Thought I heard a shot, Nigel, what--? |
17180 | Visitors, Nigel? |
17180 | Want another, eh? 17180 Well, Doctor,"said Tony West, as he entered the room,"what''s the plan? |
17180 | Well, Merriton, you''ve got your own back for little Rosie Deverill, have n''t you? 17180 Well, Wynne said twelve, did n''t he?" |
17180 | Well, my talkative young parrot,he greeted West affectionately,"and how are you?... |
17180 | Well, then,''ow the dickens do they send''em out? |
17180 | Well-- if you please-- Sir Nigel-- that is--"What the devil are they, then? |
17180 | What I say is:''Would a judge and jury believe you?'' 17180 What d''you mean, C-- Headland?" |
17180 | What did the letter from Headquarters say? 17180 What did you go up for, Nigel-- really?" |
17180 | What is it, dear? |
17180 | What is it? 17180 What more can you ask than that? |
17180 | What now, matey? 17180 What suggested this plan to you?" |
17180 | What the devil do you mean, Borkins, talkin''a lot of rot? 17180 What the devil is it?" |
17180 | What the devil--? |
17180 | What the dickens do you mean? |
17180 | What the hell are you doing here? |
17180 | What then,_ p''tite_? |
17180 | What yer goin''ter do, sir? |
17180 | What''re they going to do about it? |
17180 | What''s that, my lord? 17180 What''s that? |
17180 | What''s that? 17180 What''s that?" |
17180 | What''s the job? |
17180 | Where do they ship''em to, matey? |
17180 | Where is your''general knowledge''which you learnt at school, man? 17180 Where the deuce is Collins?" |
17180 | Where was I? 17180 Where you sleepin''?" |
17180 | Where''re you off to, matey? 17180 Who''ll take it on? |
17180 | Who? 17180 Why?" |
17180 | You are Mr. Headland, are you not? |
17180 | You are ready to swear that this is true, upon your oath, and knowing that perjury is punishable by law? |
17180 | You did n''t think of that, did you? 17180 You here as well? |
17180 | You mean to tell me that a whole township has been hanging by the heels, so to speak, upon as ridiculously easy an affair as that? |
17180 | You saw the new flame? 17180 You say it is yours, Miss Brellier? |
17180 | You say you heard the man Wynne groaning and moaning on the garden pathway after he was shot, and then practically saw him die? |
17180 | You think so? |
17180 | You will see that it is done, Dobbs, and done properly to- night? |
17180 | Your Lordship,he said, addressing the judge, who looked at him with raised eyebrows,"may I address the court?" |
17180 | Your statement against this man Borkins--? |
17180 | Yus-- wasn''t it? 17180 _ Gad!..._ Where did you find it?" |
17180 | _ Last night?_Merriton sat bolt upright in bed and ran his fingers through his hair. |
17180 | _ Nigel!_ How dared he? |
17180 | _ Two_ of''em, sir? |
17180 | _ You!_"Yes-- I, Mr.--er-- Headland, is n''t it? 17180 _ Your_ shot, Sir Nigel? |
17180 | ''Ave_ you_ bin''avin''a squint at''em, ole pieface? |
17180 | ''Avin''some nice adventures this night, ai n''t we, guv''nor?" |
17180 | ''Oo''s the little''un?" |
17180 | ''Ow did you come ter think of it? |
17180 | ''Want ter make a bit of extra money by''oldin''of your tongue?'' |
17180 | ... Now I wonder why the deuce he lied to me?" |
17180 | A fine night, what? |
17180 | A little stir of interest went round the crowded, smoky room and someone called out:"Lunnon,''ave yer? |
17180 | A sort of unearthly fireworks display, or some new explosive experiment? |
17180 | Afraid to go out and see what those lights are, are you? |
17180 | After all, was n''t it almost impossible that the bullet_ should_ be the same? |
17180 | Ai n''t wastin''many words, are yer, matey? |
17180 | An''any chawnce of a couple of men gittin''a bit er work to keep the blinkin''wolf from the door? |
17180 | An''the narsty eye? |
17180 | An''what''re sailor men doin''in Lunnon, any''ow?" |
17180 | An''where''s the bloomin''boss?" |
17180 | And as for believing his word before yours-- who fired the shot, Sir Nigel? |
17180 | And if it''adn''t been for all this unpleasantness, it would''ave bin a nice little change for yer, would n''t it? |
17180 | And is that all you''ve got to tell me? |
17180 | And may I ask how you discovered all this, before going into the case of Borkins?" |
17180 | And the other man? |
17180 | And the second one, if I do n''t make any mistake, answers to the description of James Collins-- eh, Headland?" |
17180 | And was there not a chance that the bullet might be different? |
17180 | And what else did you learn, Dollops?" |
17180 | And what fool put you in this idiotic predicament? |
17180 | And what malignant power dwelt behind the screen of their mystery? |
17180 | And what then, Dollops?" |
17180 | And what was a man doing out there at night, with a revolver? |
17180 | And what went on here in these uninhabited reaches of the marshland? |
17180 | And when one knew that these things carried electric wiring.... Or_ did they_?... |
17180 | And who''s party is this, anyhow? |
17180 | And why in heaven''s name should n''t I go out and investigate''em if I want to? |
17180 | And yet, how did the knowledge, that he was not altogether what he seemed, leak out? |
17180 | And yet-- who can tell? |
17180 | And you can show proof of this, if the jury requires it?" |
17180 | And"--he stopped and sucked in his breath, wheeling round upon Mr. Narkom--"when you come to think of it, why should n''t it have grown up already? |
17180 | Any finger- prints?" |
17180 | Any one know where we kin get a shake- down for the night? |
17180 | Any one''ere tell me the story? |
17180 | Anythink the matter, sir?" |
17180 | Are you on?" |
17180 | Besides"--he smiled suddenly into the seamed, anxious face of the man--"who knows but that bullet may prove Sir Nigel''s innocence? |
17180 | Bit of a problem, eh, Dollops? |
17180 | Bit orf the track, ai n''t yer?" |
17180 | Borkins? |
17180 | Borkins?" |
17180 | Brellier?" |
17180 | Burnt''em alive, so to speak?" |
17180 | But for what purpose? |
17180 | But what he really_ did_ say was:"What are their names?" |
17180 | But what if Borkins and Merriton had been working hand- in- glove, and then, somehow or other, had had a split? |
17180 | But what the devil has Borkins got to_ do_ with this factory? |
17180 | But what the''ell is this factory work''ere, any''ow? |
17180 | But where? |
17180 | But you remember now, eh? |
17180 | But-- did he? |
17180 | But-- no one had heard them, he had said? |
17180 | By the way, have you, in your employ, a dark, square- faced individual, with close- set eyes and a straggling moustache? |
17180 | By the way, who''s the chap with the black mustache a- stragglin''all over''is fyce? |
17180 | Ca n''t be that it''s done on_ purpose_, and yet-- why is it still here?" |
17180 | Ca n''t some of us stop him?" |
17180 | Calling him a murderer, were they? |
17180 | Can you explain it any clearer?" |
17180 | Can you recollect your uncle telling you that he used your revolver to shoot the dog with, or not? |
17180 | Cleek?" |
17180 | Cleek?" |
17180 | Cold, Mr.--er Headland?" |
17180 | Comin''along now?" |
17180 | Coming, Dollops?" |
17180 | Congratulate me, wo n''t you?" |
17180 | Contraband, eh, matey?" |
17180 | Credence in the story? |
17180 | D''you think I''m crazy? |
17180 | D''you think they''d believe you?" |
17180 | Devilish long journey, what? |
17180 | Did he, or did you? |
17180 | Did n''t they teach you any? |
17180 | Do n''t envy him the task, do you?" |
17180 | Doing a bit of eavesdropping, eh?" |
17180 | Dollops, got the golf- clubs and walking- sticks? |
17180 | Eh, Bill?" |
17180 | Eh, Nigel?" |
17180 | Eh-- what''s that?" |
17180 | Electrical tubings, eh? |
17180 | Even more clever, is n''t it? |
17180 | Ever noticed it, West? |
17180 | Ever seen''em yourself? |
17180 | Fifty pounds? |
17180 | Fight was it? |
17180 | Fishing boats?... |
17180 | Found that chap with the straggling black moustache that tried to do me in the other night? |
17180 | Funny thing, ai n''t it?" |
17180 | Funny? |
17180 | Give us an appetite for our breakfast, eh?" |
17180 | Glad that there was a chance for another pal to come under the same brutal sway as he had? |
17180 | Got your oilskin with you, Petrie?" |
17180 | Had n''t you better''phone the local branch? |
17180 | Happen to have learnt the chap''s name yet?" |
17180 | He has heard, of course?" |
17180 | He lifted an excited face to meet her eyes,"Where did you get it, Miss Brellier?" |
17180 | He was here at the time, and yet why did he suggest that old wives''tale as a possible solution of the disappearance? |
17180 | He went out to investigate the flames, Merriton? |
17180 | Headland?" |
17180 | Headland?" |
17180 | Hear anything?" |
17180 | Here, just hand me that shirt, will you?" |
17180 | How are you, old sport?" |
17180 | How long have these-- er-- lights been seen hereabouts? |
17180 | How long were those beasts going to brood in there over the dead? |
17180 | How now, son? |
17180 | How was the deed done?" |
17180 | I have your permission to continue?" |
17180 | I say, do you ride? |
17180 | I say-- look over there, will you?" |
17180 | I trust you are going to do likewise?" |
17180 | I''ve been asleep, have n''t I? |
17180 | I''ve had a long ride, and a hard one.... And so you two are going to get married, are you?" |
17180 | If he had only known what the future held in store for them both, would he still have clung to his purpose? |
17180 | If he should be convicted and sent to prison, what would become of her? |
17180 | If they''re late, well, would n''t it be worth your while to go down to the station and''ave a gentle word or two with one of the officials there?" |
17180 | Into the morning room? |
17180 | Is it not so?" |
17180 | Is n''t that rather strange?" |
17180 | Is that you, Dollops?" |
17180 | Is there nothing, nothing that can be done to save him? |
17180 | It is identical with those that are used in the cartridges of your revolver, is it not?" |
17180 | Just loadin''is our game, then?" |
17180 | Lake?" |
17180 | Let''s see what''s the time? |
17180 | Lonely? |
17180 | Lookin''a bit white about the gills, are n''t you, eh?... |
17180 | Looks a bit funny, that, does n''t it?" |
17180 | Looks a trustworthy specimen, does n''t he? |
17180 | Looks like a plant, does n''t it? |
17180 | Looks like the end of the blinkin''cage, do n''t it? |
17180 | Lunch at one- fifteen, I take it?" |
17180 | Mine? |
17180 | Mr. Cleek, see''em? |
17180 | Mr. Narkom,"he turned round and surveyed the Superintendent with mirthful eyes,"what about these bank robberies now, eh? |
17180 | Mr. Wynne-- gone-- out_ there_?" |
17180 | Mr. Wynne--_gone_? |
17180 | Must I arrest him now, and take him off to the public jail to await trial, or will you give him a sporting chance?" |
17180 | Narkom?" |
17180 | Never mind, we''ll make it soon, wo n''t we?" |
17180 | Nice little toy, is n''t it?" |
17180 | Now then, all there?" |
17180 | Now we''ll be off to old London again-- eh, Lake? |
17180 | Now, I wonder where those two are bound for?" |
17180 | Now, what in blazes--?" |
17180 | Oh, Nigel dearest--_why_ did you not tell me that they were detectives, these friends of yours who were coming to visit? |
17180 | Or was this Dacre Wynne''s abominable idea of a revenge for having stolen''Toinette''s heart away from him? |
17180 | Or you, Stark?" |
17180 | Ow''ll to- morrow evening suit?" |
17180 | Rather undershot, too, I believe? |
17180 | Remember how heart- broken you were at sixteen, when she turned her rather wayward affections to me? |
17180 | Remember the man Bill Jones, and his little pal Sammie Robinson, from Jamaica?" |
17180 | Remember?" |
17180 | Sea- faring, I take it?" |
17180 | See his eyes to- night? |
17180 | See them tubings over there? |
17180 | See''em? |
17180 | Seein''the master ternight, ai n''t we, sir?" |
17180 | Seems pretty well closed up for the night, does n''t it? |
17180 | Seems sort er funny, do n''t it? |
17180 | Shall I show him up?" |
17180 | Shall I tell him?" |
17180 | Shall us bring him along too? |
17180 | Should he go or should n''t he? |
17180 | Shows what asses we human beings are, does n''t it? |
17180 | Sir Nigel, I ask you, is n''t our friend''s make- up the perfection of the-- er-- elderly man- about- town?" |
17180 | So he did n''t come round to your place then? |
17180 | So they were trading with Belgium, were they? |
17180 | So this question of the Frozen Flame was as urgent as all that, was it? |
17180 | So you can go to bed in comfort on that, ca n''t you?" |
17180 | Some distance, is n''t it, Doctor?" |
17180 | Some picture, is n''t it?" |
17180 | Some sort of fair or other? |
17180 | Soon catch on to it, do n''t yer?" |
17180 | Surely it must be traced who used this revolver, who fired the shot from it?" |
17180 | Surely you know the story?" |
17180 | That kind of a devil dares anything.... How''s your uncle, dear? |
17180 | That satisfy you?" |
17180 | That your man?" |
17180 | That''s fixed, then, ai n''t it? |
17180 | That''s your man, Dollops, is n''t it, Headland? |
17180 | The door been left open, eh? |
17180 | The epitome of prehistoric selfishness, is it not? |
17180 | The expression of your face so plainly said,''What right has he to go meddling in another man''s affairs like this?'' |
17180 | The ground about it is as marshy as ever, and my own footprint is perfectly clear.... What the dickens do you make of it, eh?" |
17180 | The men have been up from the local morgue, have n''t they?" |
17180 | The next thing to consider is-- what the devil has a common sailor or factory- hand to do with a chap like Dacre Wynne? |
17180 | The path of Law and Justice is by no means an easy one to tread, is it? |
17180 | The reason why I mistrusted the story of the revolver? |
17180 | The revolver is of French make, is it not? |
17180 | The signature is yours?" |
17180 | Then I reckon you means the barn about a quarter of a mile up the road toward the village?" |
17180 | Then can you tell me how he finds time to run down here at leisure and visit you? |
17180 | Then may I ask why you did not immediately report this matter to the rest of the party, or to the police?" |
17180 | Then you think Borkins himself is guilty?" |
17180 | Then:"But it was_ your_ revolver he used, Miss Brellier? |
17180 | Then:"Notice anything, Dollops?" |
17180 | There is no one you know of who could have heard-- and not spoken?" |
17180 | There was a woman-- oh, I need n''t go into these family things, in a place like this, need I?... |
17180 | This last affair took place at Hendon, during the evening of Saturday last-- the sixteenth, was n''t it? |
17180 | Those flames, eh? |
17180 | Tony West, eh? |
17180 | Understand?" |
17180 | Very clever, is n''t it?" |
17180 | Want to know what those flames are, eh?" |
17180 | Was he going insane? |
17180 | Was it much hidden, Petrie? |
17180 | Was n''t I there, that night, with you? |
17180 | Was this close, uncomfortable companionship of the spirit to be forced on him again? |
17180 | We had a dog who was hurt-- you remember Franco,''Toinette? |
17180 | We would n''t have chanced taking them on if we had n''t been so short- handed, but... you''re sure of them, eh?" |
17180 | We''ll be''ere and grateful for yer''elp.... Wot''s this abaht a murder? |
17180 | We''ve a good four miles''walk ahead of us, and-- what was that?" |
17180 | We''ve been out searching for Wynne, and I--""_ Been out?_""Yes, across the Fens. |
17180 | Well, had n''t he better take''em downstairs and give''em a stiff whisky- and- soda? |
17180 | Well, it seems to be getting dusk rapidly, Sir Nigel, what about those flames now, eh? |
17180 | Well, my dear Mr. Lake, finding your part a bit too much for you?" |
17180 | Well, wot if there ai n''t? |
17180 | Were n''t such a rough night after all, was it, sir?" |
17180 | Were they-- very awful?" |
17180 | What I wants ter know is--''ow do we get out of this charmin''little country seat? |
17180 | What abaht it, now? |
17180 | What about Tuesday? |
17180 | What about a round of cards, boys, till the time is up?" |
17180 | What business was he up to? |
17180 | What chance had he of a future now-- with Cleek against him? |
17180 | What could it mean, but one thing? |
17180 | What d''you make of it?" |
17180 | What did it mean? |
17180 | What did you learn at the War Office?" |
17180 | What do you make of it, old chap?" |
17180 | What do you make of it?" |
17180 | What do you think?" |
17180 | What fool let him go? |
17180 | What happened?" |
17180 | What has the Frozen Flame to do with all this? |
17180 | What if Collins had met with the same fate as Dacre Wynne? |
17180 | What in Heaven''s name''s the matter? |
17180 | What is it you have to say, sir?" |
17180 | What is it, Petrie?" |
17180 | What is it, my pocket guide- book?" |
17180 | What is it? |
17180 | What more natural, then, than that this human fiend should endeavour to shape even this thing to his own ends? |
17180 | What on earth--? |
17180 | What reason? |
17180 | What say you?" |
17180 | What secret did they hide? |
17180 | What sort of a fool would I be to believe it? |
17180 | What sort of a friend was he, anyway? |
17180 | What the dickens was it, anyhow? |
17180 | What then were these"Frozen Flames"? |
17180 | What was a mere coroner''s jury to that possibility? |
17180 | What was the matter with him? |
17180 | What were those fiendish flames, anyhow, that men disappeared completely, leaving neither sight nor sound? |
17180 | What you think, Lake?" |
17180 | What''re sailormen wantin''wi''clorth- makin''and''ammering''tin- pots? |
17180 | What''s that you say? |
17180 | What''s that?" |
17180 | What''s the blooming mystery? |
17180 | What''s the shortest w''y, Borkins, me beauty?" |
17180 | What''s this? |
17180 | What''s yer names again? |
17180 | What''s your idea, now?" |
17180 | What''s your opinion of''em? |
17180 | What''s your plan of action?" |
17180 | What_ are_ those flames, and where do they come from? |
17180 | What_ are_ those flames, anyway? |
17180 | When you''ve discovered that, you''ll have got half way to the truth, and the rest will follow as a matter of course.... What''s that, Mr. Narkom? |
17180 | Where are your quarters?" |
17180 | Where did you say, Merriton? |
17180 | Where on earth are we? |
17180 | Where''s your master?" |
17180 | Who can tell? |
17180 | Who knows but that it is not the same kind as lie now in this deadly little thing here in my hand? |
17180 | Who''ll tell us?" |
17180 | Who''s a- comin''now? |
17180 | Who''s that?" |
17180 | Who''s to stop me?" |
17180 | Whose?... |
17180 | Why?" |
17180 | Why?" |
17180 | Will Mr. Stark kindly come forward?" |
17180 | With all your fine secrets? |
17180 | Wo n''t you sit down?" |
17180 | Wonder if there''d be any chance of me lending a hand?" |
17180 | Wot brought yer dahn''ere? |
17180 | Would Nigel be able to get through it? |
17180 | Wynne?" |
17180 | Wynne?" |
17180 | Wynne?" |
17180 | Yer did n''t mean the master of this plyce goes and ships electrical fittin''s and such- like out to Belgium in_ fishin''_ boats-- strite, eh?" |
17180 | Yes-- horrible, is n''t it? |
17180 | Yet how was he to know that the man would try to fix a murder on him, himself? |
17180 | You Merriton? |
17180 | You are going to settle down to it altogether, then?" |
17180 | You bought it abroad?" |
17180 | You can manage to put him up somewhere, I suppose? |
17180 | You can remember? |
17180 | You can swear to this statement as far as your part in it is concerned, Doctor Bartholomew?" |
17180 | You can vouch for it? |
17180 | You can vouch for their reliability to keep their mouths shut, Dobbs? |
17180 | You coming along?" |
17180 | You did n''t know that, then? |
17180 | You did n''t know they were Cleek and his man, did you? |
17180 | You found''i m?" |
17180 | You have made enquiries?" |
17180 | You men can keep your mouths shut?" |
17180 | You understand?" |
17180 | You will?" |
17180 | You''ll help me, Dollops, wo n''t you? |
17180 | You''re not trying to intimate that_ I_ killed him, are you? |
17180 | Your uncle_ did_ kill the dog Franco with it? |
17180 | Yours or Merriton''s? |
17180 | _ Gawd!_ are you a devil?" |
17180 | belongs to you, I take it?" |
17180 | but the chaps wot made this bloomin''tube did their job fair, did n''t they? |
17180 | gives yer the fair creeps, do n''t it?" |
17180 | here''s a turning, and the question is, shall we go straight on, or turn?" |
17180 | it''s good to smell the fresh air again-- eh, Dollops? |
17180 | lunch ready? |
4075 | ''Member dose jools youse swiped from de duchess? |
4075 | ''Why should we wait for the morrow? 4075 --electricity and microscopy?" |
4075 | --electricity and microscopy? |
4075 | --when you ask yourself timidly,''Is it? 4075 A detective?" |
4075 | A game of skill, surely? |
4075 | A what? |
4075 | About the letter? |
4075 | Accident? 4075 Ai n''t I to get busy at all, den?" |
4075 | Ai n''t youse goin''to put on your gum- shoes, boss? |
4075 | Ai n''t youse swiping no more jools? |
4075 | All right, is it? 4075 An''de bank youse busted?" |
4075 | And have to take some awful medicine? |
4075 | And if there was n''t? |
4075 | And this was the tenth? |
4075 | And what did you do? |
4075 | And you could n''t find out her name in five days? |
4075 | And you make a living at this sort of thing? |
4075 | And you used to stare at her? |
4075 | And, now, as it''s a little late, perhaps we had better-- Ready, Spike? 4075 And, now, you love her, eh? |
4075 | Any money on that game? |
4075 | Are we near the castle, then? |
4075 | Are you afraid of hurting your uncle''s feelings? |
4075 | Are you also going to tell them why you did n''t have me arrested that night? |
4075 | Are you and Miss McEachern--? |
4075 | Are you going to be a week getting that water? |
4075 | Are you? |
4075 | Are you? |
4075 | Been looking at the water? |
4075 | Boss, what''s doin''here? 4075 Boss?" |
4075 | Broken off? |
4075 | Burst the catch with your jemmy? |
4075 | But did n''t the mere fact that the thief got the jewels, and was only stopped by a fluke from getting away with them, do that? |
4075 | But how do you mean, disappeared? 4075 But why should we have the trouble? |
4075 | But why--? 4075 But you liked the country?" |
4075 | But, Lord Dreever, what are you doing? 4075 But, boss, what''s eatin''you? |
4075 | But, damn it, man, if I do n''t, what''s the good--? 4075 But, surely,"said Jimmy,"had n''t the management of the hotel a safe for valuables?" |
4075 | But-- were you-- stealing them? |
4075 | By the way, Pitt,he said,"you''ve got a man of sorts, of course? |
4075 | By the way,said Jimmy,"are you acting in these theatricals they are getting up?" |
4075 | By the way,said Mr. McEachern,"I thought Sir Thomas-- wasn''t your uncle intending to announce--?" |
4075 | Can I take you out on the lake? |
4075 | Can you make soup? |
4075 | Can you make''soup''? |
4075 | Can you use an oxy- acetylene blow- pipe? |
4075 | Can you use an oxy- acetylene blow- pipe? |
4075 | Care for a game? |
4075 | Cigar, Spike? |
4075 | Cigar? |

4075 | You ca n''t mean what you say? 4075 You can''t-- do you mean to say-- will that--"he searched for a word-"stop you?" |
4075 | You can,he said,"but how do you know you can?" |
4075 | You did n''t tell him? 4075 You did, did you?" |
4075 | You do n''t know him, do you? |
4075 | You do n''t know? 4075 You do n''t think I really meant to, do you?" |
4075 | You do, do you? |

4075 | An''den what? |
4075 | And do you know what he had the impudence, the gall, to tell me? |
4075 | And how could she tell him? |
4075 | And so, of course, Sir Thomas was pretty grateful to your father?" |
4075 | And they''re not brutes-- are you, darlings? |
4075 | And what I say is what''s prevent him saying he''s done it when has n''t done it?" |
4075 | And what are you going to do then? |
4075 | And what business had you bringing detectives into other people''s houses?" |
4075 | And where was the house? |
4075 | And why? |
4075 | And, I say, what on earth language was that he was talking? |
4075 | And, now, do n''t you think you ought to be going to bed? |
4075 | And-- er-- by the way, old man-- the fact is, just for the moment, I''m frightfully-- You have n''t such a thing as a fiver anywhere about, have you? |
4075 | Any particular rich girl?" |
4075 | Anybody coming my way?" |
4075 | Are n''t you afraid of the boogaboos getting you? |
4075 | Are n''t you going to bed soon, father? |
4075 | Are we anywhere near it?" |
4075 | Are we not imagined by Mr. McEachern, for instance, to be working hand- in- hand like brothers? |
4075 | Are you a judge of precious stones at all?" |
4075 | Are you by any chance on the wagon?" |
4075 | Are you convinced, or do you hanker after tests like polarized light and refracting liquids?" |
4075 | Are you listening? |
4075 | Are you on?" |
4075 | Are you satisfied? |
4075 | Are you satisfied?" |
4075 | Are you the other man they were going to get? |
4075 | Banks an''jools from duchesses? |
4075 | Bot''of us?" |
4075 | But how? |
4075 | But was it a joke? |
4075 | But what made you fancy that I intended to leave the castle?" |
4075 | But what more, he asked himself, could he have expected? |
4075 | But what of it? |
4075 | But what was five pounds? |
4075 | But would the girl have him? |
4075 | But, say, did youse ever see his girl?" |
4075 | By the way, Arthur, how was that? |
4075 | By the way, I suppose you lost sight of this girl when you landed?" |
4075 | By the way, before we start, care to make it a sovereign a hundred?" |
4075 | By the way--"he eyed Lord Dreever curiously--"I never thought of asking before-- what on earth are you doing here? |
4075 | CHAPTER IV MOLLY"Why, Molly,"said the policeman,"what are you doing out of bed? |
4075 | Ca n''t you read faces? |
4075 | Ca n''t you see that?" |
4075 | Ca n''t you see them jumping with joy as you slid in through the window, and told the great news? |
4075 | Ca n''t you see what you''ve done?" |
4075 | Can it really be?'' |
4075 | Can you catch the two- fifteen? |
4075 | Can you listen? |
4075 | Can you manage sleeping on the sofa one night? |
4075 | Can you remember that?" |
4075 | Coming downstairs, Pitt, old man? |
4075 | Could Jimmy have made an attempt on the jewels during the dance? |
4075 | Could this be one of that select band? |
4075 | Damn you,"he went on, his anger rising once more,"what do you mean by it? |
4075 | Dat''s goin''some, ai n''t it? |
4075 | Dey''re de limit, ai n''t dey? |
4075 | Did n''t you say something about knowing a suitable house somewhere? |
4075 | Did they pine away?" |
4075 | Did you hear of the cracking of the New Asiatic Bank in Lombard Street?" |
4075 | Did you know he was on the stage before he took up newspaper- work? |
4075 | Did you like it?" |
4075 | Did you see him?" |
4075 | Did you think I did n''t know what I was? |
4075 | Did youse want me to help on some lay, boss? |
4075 | Do n''t I keep telling you we''re all pals here? |
4075 | Do n''t know if you know him? |
4075 | Do n''t you know her address?" |
4075 | Do n''t you realize that in about ten minutes I am due to play an important part in a great drama on the stage?" |
4075 | Do n''t you see that he would suspect you the moment he found they were gone, and then you''d get into trouble?" |
4075 | Do n''t you want me to marry a man? |
4075 | Do n''t you want to be engaged? |
4075 | Do you do anything in that line?" |
4075 | Do you fancy that Mr. McEachern, chatting with his tame sleuth- hound over their cigars, will have been reticent on this point? |
4075 | Do you feel better now? |
4075 | Do you happen to know whereabouts Dreever Castle is?" |
4075 | Do you imagine that your blameless past is a sufficient safeguard? |
4075 | Do you know who that is? |
4075 | Do you know your lines?" |
4075 | Do you know, you''re getting a regular Mephistopheles, Spike? |
4075 | Do you mean to tell me it is my bright, brainy, persevering friend Galer who has been handcuffed and locked in the coal- cellar?" |
4075 | Do you realize what you are? |
4075 | Do you realize, my boy, that you''ve let yourself in for buying a dinner for twelve hungry men next week? |
4075 | Do you remember that night we broke into that house uptown-- the police- captain''s house?" |
4075 | Do you think I care for your size?" |
4075 | Do you think I shall let you--?" |
4075 | Do you think you can bully me? |
4075 | Do you understand?" |
4075 | Do you want it at once?" |
4075 | Do you?" |
4075 | Does de odder mug, de vally gazebo, give him de glad eye? |
4075 | Does it not seep into your consciousness that we are, as it were, subtly connected in this house in the minds of certain bad persons? |
4075 | Does n''t it strike you that they are just the sort to get on together? |
4075 | Eh? |
4075 | Eh? |
4075 | Eh?" |
4075 | Ever played picquet? |
4075 | Father, did they miss me when I was gone? |
4075 | Father, will you promise me something?" |
4075 | For what?" |
4075 | Galer?" |
4075 | Gone to bed? |
4075 | Got what?" |
4075 | Got what?" |
4075 | Had he gone mad? |
4075 | Had she liked him? |
4075 | Has Mr. Mifflin come in yet? |
4075 | Have a drink?" |
4075 | Have you any objection to my taking an assistant along with me? |
4075 | Have you any objections to my carving a J on your front- door?" |
4075 | Have you ever spoken to her?" |
4075 | Have you met them? |
4075 | Have you seen an ugly, grinning, red- headed scoundrel hanging about the place? |
4075 | Have you--?" |
4075 | Having breakfast? |
4075 | He did not understand; but things seemed to be taking a turn for the better, so why disturb the harmony? |
4075 | He does n''t expect to stop indefinitely, I suppose? |
4075 | He took a card from his case, scribbled the words,"Can I help?" |
4075 | Here we all are, what?" |
4075 | Honestly, now, was n''t that the game?" |
4075 | Honestly, you do n''t mean to say that was true, was it? |
4075 | How about palming off faked diamonds on Aunt Julia for a gamble?" |
4075 | How are the theatricals going? |
4075 | How are you getting along downstairs?" |
4075 | How did he get here? |
4075 | How did you come to owe it?" |
4075 | How did you guess? |
4075 | How do we go? |
4075 | How do you know I have n''t got a big American reputation? |
4075 | How do you know the cars still run both ways on Broadway?" |
4075 | How do you like it?" |
4075 | How do you spell it?" |
4075 | How does it go? |
4075 | How does that suit you?" |
4075 | How long do you give me, Arthur?" |
4075 | How many seconds have I got now?" |
4075 | How much did it set youse back, boss?" |
4075 | How was he to pay Hargate the money? |
4075 | How would you enjoy being called a super? |
4075 | How''s Miss Molly, boss?" |
4075 | I could n''t do anything to hurt him now, could I? |
4075 | I guess you know why I came in here to see you?" |
4075 | I happen to want-- Can you lend me a fiver?" |
4075 | I love this old place, but surely you ca n''t think that it can really matter in a thing like this? |
4075 | I mean, going on like a frightful music- hall comedian? |
4075 | I only want-- oh, I ca n''t put it into words, but do n''t you see?" |
4075 | I should n''t mind betting that you feel fit for anything?" |
4075 | I suppose a good many of the New York force do get rich by graft?" |
4075 | I suppose you think that these detectives will say to themselves,''Now, whom shall we suspect? |
4075 | I tell you, if you''ll stand in--""Bit risky, is n''t it?" |
4075 | I would have refused him then, and put him out of his misery, only I could n''t very well till he had proposed, could I? |
4075 | I would n''t touch that stuff for a fortune, what? |
4075 | I''ll square up with him now, shall I?" |
4075 | I''ve made my pile, so why continue?" |
4075 | If I was naughty, you could take me up and shake me till I was good, could n''t you?" |
4075 | If it still belongs to Lord Dreever, do n''t you think you ought to consult him before revising his list of guests?" |
4075 | If the stamp would be of any use to you as a start--? |
4075 | If you do n''t want to marry Miss McEachern, why did you propose to her?" |
4075 | If you have no objection?" |
4075 | Is Spennie bringing a friend?" |
4075 | Is dat more dan a pound?" |
4075 | Is dat right?" |
4075 | Is he always like that? |
4075 | Is it a bank, or-- jools?" |
4075 | Is it de old lay? |
4075 | Is n''t she a ripper?" |
4075 | Is n''t that so? |
4075 | Is that better?" |
4075 | Is that what you''re after?" |
4075 | Is this what you feed them on? |
4075 | Is your address on your card? |
4075 | It was sweet of her to be so sympathetic, but was it merely sympathy? |
4075 | It wo n''t be upsetting your arrangements?" |
4075 | It would be deuced bad form, of course, for Jimmy to assault his host, but could Jimmy be trusted to remember the niceties of etiquette? |
4075 | Jimmy, to be foiled, must be watched, and how could he watch him? |
4075 | Jimmy, you do n''t hate me for saying this, do you?" |
4075 | Just because you do n''t know me over here, why scorn me? |
4075 | Let''s be pushing along, shall we?" |
4075 | Lord Dreever might be hounded into proposing to Molly, but what earthly reason was there for supposing that Molly would accept him? |
4075 | Make it more exciting, do n''t you think, if we played for something?" |
4075 | Me? |
4075 | Molly, do you mind if I sing a bar or two? |
4075 | Never mind, call him up, will you? |
4075 | No? |
4075 | No? |
4075 | Not bad my spotting him, was it? |
4075 | Now, do you?" |
4075 | Now, tell me, supposing you were going to break into a villa, what time of night would you do it?" |
4075 | Of course, I loved America, but--""Have you left New York long?" |
4075 | Oh, and by the way, are you any good at acting? |
4075 | Oh, ca n''t you understand? |
4075 | Oh, how could she make him understand? |
4075 | One of those frightful fellows who forgot to pack your collars? |
4075 | Or is it forty million? |
4075 | Patience?" |
4075 | Pitt?" |
4075 | Pitt?" |
4075 | Pitt?" |
4075 | Possibly, if you were to apologize to him--? |
4075 | Probably, Jimmy thought, when the family lawyer had told the light- haired young man the secret, the latter''s comment had been,"No, really? |
4075 | Romeo and Juliet? |
4075 | Say it was all a joke? |
4075 | Say, boss, what''s de game? |
4075 | Say, what do youse t''ink of dem jools, boss?" |
4075 | Say, what''s doin''? |
4075 | Say, what''s he doin''on dis beat? |
4075 | Say, who do you t''ink I nearly bumped me coco ag''inst out in de corridor downstairs? |
4075 | Say, wo n''t youse really--?" |
4075 | Say, would n''t dat make youse glad you had n''t gone to de circus? |
4075 | See?" |
4075 | Seen the paper?" |
4075 | Shall I tell him? |
4075 | So that was what was in that letter, eh?" |
4075 | So, I says all right, where is it? |
4075 | So, dis mug, what''do you t''ink he does?" |
4075 | So, that''s how it happened, is it? |
4075 | Spike, have you ever been best man? |
4075 | Spike? |
4075 | Still, you do n''t snore, do you? |
4075 | Suppose I had n''t an iron will, what would happen? |
4075 | Surely, he did n''t make you walk?" |
4075 | Surely, she was n''t going to start sending him love- letters, or any of that frightful rot? |
4075 | Ten bob a hundred?" |
4075 | That suit you, Jimmy?" |
4075 | That would account for it, would n''t it?" |
4075 | The gods had provided gifts: why not take them? |
4075 | Then, am I to understand you have no objection? |
4075 | Then, why did you break open the drawer?" |
4075 | Then, you did n''t talk with him?" |
4075 | They run as follows--"What he did say was:"Uncle, can you let me have twenty pounds?" |
4075 | This afternoon--""What about this afternoon?" |
4075 | This circumstantial evidence thing is the devil, is n''t it? |
4075 | Twenty pounds, was n''t it? |
4075 | Twenty? |
4075 | Used she to walk alone?" |
4075 | Was I to de bad? |
4075 | Was she a blonde?" |
4075 | Was that Sir Thomas''s idea? |
4075 | Was the duologue a success? |
4075 | Well, what''s her name?" |
4075 | Well, what''s the answer?" |
4075 | Well?" |
4075 | Were n''t you at''Love, the Cracksman''? |
4075 | Were you playing hide- and- seek?" |
4075 | Wha- what''s to prevent him saying he''s done it, whether he has or not?" |
4075 | What I mean is, have you talked at all with that valet man, the one you think is a detective?" |
4075 | What I mean is, why not put off that Japan trip you spoke about, and come down to Dreever with me?" |
4075 | What am I to do if they ask me to play?" |
4075 | What are you doing in my house?" |
4075 | What are you kicking about? |
4075 | What could be easier than to go and get it? |
4075 | What could be more suitable? |
4075 | What could the girl be writing to him about? |
4075 | What did it all matter? |
4075 | What did it matter? |
4075 | What did you do?" |
4075 | What do I do?" |
4075 | What do I want wit more dan one dude suit?" |
4075 | What do you call yourself, I wonder? |
4075 | What do you mean to do?" |
4075 | What do you mean? |
4075 | What do you mean? |
4075 | What do you mean?" |
4075 | What do you propose to do about it?" |
4075 | What do you propose to tell, anyway?" |
4075 | What do you say?" |
4075 | What do you take me for, I should like to know?" |
4075 | What does he want?" |
4075 | What had he been doing? |
4075 | What had he done to deserve this? |
4075 | What had she done that she should be assailed like this? |
4075 | What happened then?" |
4075 | What have you got in there, Pitt? |
4075 | What have you got on just now?" |
4075 | What is it? |
4075 | What makes you think it is all right?" |
4075 | What more had he any right to ask? |
4075 | What on earth''s wrong with you? |
4075 | What tone would you take if a comparative stranger ordered you to leave another man''s house?" |
4075 | What was he saying? |
4075 | What was that noise I heard?" |
4075 | What''ll you bet?" |
4075 | What''ll you bet?" |
4075 | What''s an innocent man going round the country with Spike Mullins for, unless they are standing in together at some game? |
4075 | What''s dat dis side?" |
4075 | What''s dat, boss? |
4075 | What''s dat?" |
4075 | What''s dat?" |
4075 | What''s dere to be raw about, boss?" |
4075 | What''s happened?" |
4075 | What''s my position got to do with it? |
4075 | What''s old man McEachern doin''stunts dis side fer?" |
4075 | What''s that? |
4075 | What''s the idea? |
4075 | What''s the matter?" |
4075 | What''s the matter?" |
4075 | What''s the point of putting up any old yarn like that? |
4075 | What''s the trouble? |
4075 | What''s troubling you?" |
4075 | What''s up?" |
4075 | What''s your name? |
4075 | What''s your trouble? |
4075 | What''s your--?" |
4075 | What''s yours, Jimmy?" |
4075 | What, going? |
4075 | What, me, too?" |
4075 | What? |
4075 | What?" |
4075 | When I''ve just come home?" |
4075 | When did he come back? |
4075 | Where are you living?" |
4075 | Which way do I go?" |
4075 | Who could this be, and why had he not switched on the regular room lights? |
4075 | Who is she?" |
4075 | Who should know it better than myself? |
4075 | Who the devil''s that?" |
4075 | Who the dickens wanted you to look after me? |
4075 | Who''s the other?" |
4075 | Why ai n''t youse sittin''in at de game? |
4075 | Why am I so elusive and mysterious? |
4075 | Why are you here, you and that red- headed devil, Spike Mullins?" |
4075 | Why at me? |
4075 | Why ca n''t you behave, like Rastus? |
4075 | Why could she not understand? |
4075 | Why did you require that money I gave you?" |
4075 | Why do n''t you like him?" |
4075 | Why do n''t you stay where the girl is?" |
4075 | Why had he a torch? |
4075 | Why not change your mind, and stop?" |
4075 | Why not give in, and end it all and win peace? |
4075 | Why not tonight? |
4075 | Why tear yourself away, Spike?" |
4075 | Why these higher mathematics?" |
4075 | Why was Jimmy in the room at that time? |
4075 | Why were you behind the curtain? |
4075 | Why would n''t you do that?" |
4075 | Why, I owe you a fiver, do n''t I, Pitt, old man?" |
4075 | Why, what about this very night, when I asked you for a few pounds?" |
4075 | Why?" |
4075 | Why?" |
4075 | Will you listen to one more before getting busy?" |
4075 | Wo n''t you sit down?" |
4075 | Would it be too much to ask you to forget your professional instincts? |
4075 | Would n''t you, Pitt, old man?" |
4075 | Would there, Pitt, old man?" |
4075 | You came on the Lusitania, I suppose?" |
4075 | You do n''t really mean, that about the hero of the novel? |
4075 | You do n''t think a lot of women, do you? |
4075 | You do n''t want a full description, I suppose? |
4075 | You do n''t want to feel sudden shooting pains, do you?" |
4075 | You do understand, do n''t you? |
4075 | You follow that? |
4075 | You know dat guy dat come dis afternoon-- de guy from de village, dat came wit''old man McEachern?" |
4075 | You know my friend Mr. Mullins, I think? |
4075 | You mentioned to- morrow? |
4075 | You see the idea, do n''t you? |
4075 | You see the importance of this item? |
4075 | You want me to become an accomplice in this beastly, low- down deception? |
4075 | You want me to keep my mouth shut? |
4075 | You were saying--?" |
4075 | You''ll be able to let me sit in at de game, wo n''t you?" |
4075 | You''re angels, and you nearly burst yourselves with joy because auntie had come back from England, did n''t you? |
4075 | You''re cuttin''it out?" |
4075 | You''re going to tell--?" |
4075 | mean?" |
4075 | or Spike? |
14332 | A Russian? |
14332 | A little searching party of her own, eh? 14332 A man killed whilst another man held him-- held him in his arms-- and watched over him, and yet the other man saw nothing of the murderer? |
14332 | A misfortune, my friend? 14332 A slave to a Russian? |
14332 | Ah, do you? |
14332 | Ai n''t you found out even yet, you silly? 14332 All serene, Gov''nor?" |
14332 | An operation to be performed upon my baby boy? 14332 And Lady Wilding is, of course, the beneficiary?" |
14332 | And appearing very much like the inflammation resulting from the bite of a gnat or a spider, Captain? |
14332 | And did n''t? |
14332 | And did so? |
14332 | And do they say that? |
14332 | And he did hear of him, then? |
14332 | And so you are that great man Cleek, are you? |
14332 | And stop until you hear from me? |
14332 | And the horse? 14332 And the letter, monsieur-- the damning letter?" |
14332 | And then what, Captain? |
14332 | And were all the symptoms-- or, rather, the absence of symptoms-- the same? |
14332 | And what are you doing in here, anyhow? 14332 And when will he begin, Mr. Narkom? |
14332 | And who is not her brother, after all? |
14332 | And you found it out only through his telling you, did you not? 14332 And you think the little fellow is in peril?" |
14332 | And you took him in? |
14332 | And you want to find out if he really carried out that threat and did put an end to himself, I suppose? 14332 And you? |
14332 | Anybody a- comin''with him, sir? |
14332 | Anything to do with it? 14332 Are you fishing for a compliment? |
14332 | As for that other time... How could I have expected that you would take it in any other way, being what you are and I what I had been? 14332 As how?" |
14332 | At breakfast? |
14332 | Awful thing, was n''t it? 14332 Bad blood between you, then?" |
14332 | Baron de Carjorac? 14332 Because I did not write? |
14332 | Beer and skittles? 14332 Bimbi says maybe he''s going to be my daddy one day-- didn''t you, Bimbi?" |
14332 | But can you? 14332 But from the sewer?" |
14332 | But how, Mr. Cleek? 14332 But how? |
14332 | But how? |
14332 | But need you go so soon? |
14332 | But not at this late hour, surely? 14332 But to save Mauravania''s queen, monsieur? |
14332 | But what''s that got to do with drugging the whiskey? |
14332 | But why a feint? 14332 But why should we talk of unpleasant things when the future looks so bright? |
14332 | But why? 14332 But you''ll come, wo n''t you?" |
14332 | But, Mr. Cleek, how could it have decided it? 14332 But, my dear Mr. Narkom, would n''t it be better, or, at least, more hospitable if I went over to meet him, in case he does come earlier? |
14332 | Ca n''t you grasp the situation? 14332 Ca n''t you? |
14332 | Ca n''t you? |
14332 | Captain Hawksley? 14332 Cleek in France? |
14332 | Cleek? |
14332 | Clients? |
14332 | Clodoche-- and from the sewers? |
14332 | Collusion? |
14332 | Coriander? 14332 Cut him with a knife?" |
14332 | Did n''t you? 14332 Did you do that to- day at the matinee performance, chevalier?" |
14332 | Do it? 14332 Do n''t think, do you, that there can possibly be any connection between the two cases? |
14332 | Do n''t you? |
14332 | Do you know, you little monkey, that you''re the only soul in all God''s world that could ever muster up a tear for me? 14332 Do you make anything out of it?" |
14332 | Do you mean that? |
14332 | Do you mean to tell me that is what kept you at home? 14332 Do you remember what I said, madame? |
14332 | Do you think I could persuade anybody if a third man perished? |
14332 | Does Marise pay you to sit there like mourners? 14332 Does it?" |
14332 | Dollops, they broke into our holiday-- they did us out of a part of it, did n''t they, old chap? |
14332 | Even though that deceit is the only thing that could give you your heart''s desire? 14332 Even to putting your head in his mouth?" |
14332 | Facts? 14332 Father,"he said,"am I to do the trick to- night? |
14332 | Finch? |
14332 | Five? 14332 Five?" |
14332 | From what source? 14332 Furnace? |
14332 | Gave them up? 14332 Going back on you?" |
14332 | Good heaven, man, you-- you do n''t mean--? |
14332 | Got down to the last ditch-- down to the point of desperation, eh? |
14332 | Happy coincidence my motoring down here-- eh, what? 14332 Has anybody else entered or attempted to enter the house?" |
14332 | Has he not made it yet? |
14332 | Has he, this precious royal master of yours, this usurper-- has he parted with that thing-- the wondrous Rainbow Pearl? |
14332 | Has it ever done so? |
14332 | Has that been lost? |
14332 | He has a rich friend, then? |
14332 | He took the bait, then, Cleek? |
14332 | Helping you? 14332 Henry, will you never be warned, never take these awful lessons to heart? |
14332 | Her? 14332 Here,"tapping her bodice and laughing,"tenderly shielded,_ mon ami_, and why not? |
14332 | Here? |
14332 | His body? 14332 His royal master? |
14332 | How did it happen that she had n''t seen him in all that time? 14332 How did the Earl of Wynraven''s son come to meet this singularly fascinating lady, and where?" |
14332 | How do you know that? |
14332 | How killed, Sir Henry? 14332 Hullo, Smathers, you in this, too?" |
14332 | I wonder if I deserve that? 14332 I wonder if the chevalier himself would be as safe if he were to make a feint of doing that?" |
14332 | I wonder if you understand that I shall be kicking my heels on my bedside until it is ready?--that I sha n''t sleep a wink all night? |
14332 | I? 14332 I? |
14332 | In his hands? 14332 In the name of Heaven, man, who and what are you?" |
14332 | Indeed? 14332 Interfering with young ladies, eh? |
14332 | Is anybody interested in your not putting Black Riot into the field on Derby Day? 14332 Is it a panel? |
14332 | Is it the lion again? 14332 Is that a fact?" |
14332 | Is that a fact? |
14332 | Is that all, Miss Lorne, or am I right in supposing that there is even worse to come? |
14332 | It did come, then? |
14332 | It is an age- old maxim, is it not, Mr. Cleek, that two wrongs can not by any possibility constitute a right? 14332 It is known that I have been with them-- the Comstocks-- and it is all so mysterious and awful.... Oh, who can tell whose hand it may be? |
14332 | It is quite the size of a pigeon''s egg, I believe; is it not, Count? |
14332 | It was the French position that you chose, then? 14332 It will be the story of last night over again, of course? |
14332 | It''s a compact, then? |
14332 | Johnston, stop!--turn round!--are you out of your head? 14332 Just have a look at it, will you? |
14332 | Knew, Mr. Cleek? 14332 Know of it? |
14332 | Lady Wilding, will you oblige me by standing here? 14332 Left what? |
14332 | Little Lord Chepstow? |
14332 | Look here,he said laconically,"what do you think of this?" |
14332 | Look''ere, are n''t you a- goin''to do it quiet, or are you a- goin''to mike me tike the blessed thing from you? |
14332 | Make a feint of it? 14332 Mates, monsieur? |
14332 | Maurice Van Nant? 14332 May I ask who else is in the house besides the servants?" |
14332 | May I ask why? |
14332 | May I ask why? |
14332 | May I ask, Major, why you speak of the lady in the present tense and of the man in the past? 14332 May I say again, that I am not sorry I told you? |
14332 | May n''t be? 14332 Meaning Captain Morford?" |
14332 | Mind? 14332 Miriam, Flora, and... Miss Lorne, will you tell me please the name of the lady to whom Captain Morford is engaged?" |
14332 | Miss Lorne will hand you over to Nursie with orders to put you to bed if you do,_ I_ know-- won''t you, Miss Lorne? |
14332 | Miss Lorne, am I to understand that this Captain Morford is engaged to a girl who has_ brothers_? |
14332 | Miss Morrison,he inquired as Mary returned in company with the superintendent,"Miss Morrison, do you keep pigeons?" |
14332 | Monsieur knows of the gem, then? |
14332 | Monsieur, you then are the great, the astonishing Cleek? 14332 Monsieur,"cried out madame,"monsieur, what is the meaning of that? |
14332 | Mother and brothers?--_brothers_? |
14332 | Mr. Narkom, do me a favour, will you? 14332 Mr. Smeer does not approve of the race track, of course?" |
14332 | Murple is the groom who was paralysed, is he not? |
14332 | Must we disturb him? 14332 My dear Cleek, could n''t a parakeet be made to swallow a pearl?" |
14332 | My dear Cleek, did you find anything? |
14332 | My dear Miss Lorne, what are you saying? |
14332 | My dear chap, you ca n''t really place any credence in that absurd assertion regarding the blue belt? 14332 My things packed and ready?" |
14332 | New Zealand? |
14332 | Not secured? 14332 Not surely when you are so tired as you say?" |
14332 | Nothing worth looking into, superintendent? |
14332 | Now, what are you after, you goat? 14332 Of a what?" |
14332 | Of course, Carboys treated it as the veriest rubbish-- who would n''t? 14332 Oh, Mr. Cleek, have you any idea-- any clue?" |
14332 | Oh, Mr. Cleek, you think you can get the stolen paper back? 14332 Oh, Mr. Narkom, what was it-- that noise I heard?" |
14332 | Oh, he did that, did he? 14332 Oh, how could you know that, Mr. Cleek? |
14332 | Oh, it''s that kind of case, is it? |
14332 | Oh, that? |
14332 | Oh, then you do keep them? |
14332 | On your word of honour as a soldier and a gentleman, is that true? |
14332 | Or, at least, to have you point out the hiding- place of them? |
14332 | Others? 14332 Parakeets?" |
14332 | Procure you a position, Miss Lorne? 14332 Really? |
14332 | Remember it? 14332 Reward? |
14332 | Ripping day, is n''t it? 14332 Ripping, was n''t it, old chap?" |
14332 | Save the what? |
14332 | Shall I show you how much I do respect you, then? |
14332 | Shall I take off my hat and say''thank you, ma''am''; or just the hackneyed''Praise from Sir Hubert is praise indeed''? |
14332 | Shall we go on? 14332 She intends doing that, then? |
14332 | Shortly, the chemist? 14332 Sir Henry,"he said, after a moment,"may I ask how long it is since you were in South America?" |
14332 | Sir Horace came down to look at the furnace? 14332 Sir Horace came down?" |
14332 | Slipping off, sir? |
14332 | Smart capture, Bobby, was n''t it? |
14332 | So that he, naturally, would move heaven and earth to prevent his grandson and heir from marrying a young woman of that class? 14332 So the lady was of the careful and calculating kind? |
14332 | Something you want attended to on the quiet? |
14332 | Still, it will be one of the two certainly? |
14332 | Strangled? 14332 Suppose I do n''t''run you in,''as you put it? |
14332 | Surely, Miss Lorne, you-- are not afraid of me? |
14332 | Takes it hard, poor old chap, does n''t he? |
14332 | Tell me, if it is not an impertinent question, did you take out an insurance policy on Murple''s life and pay the premium on it yourself? 14332 That Patagonian plant, eh? |
14332 | That is your ladyship''s son, is it not? |
14332 | That? 14332 The Baron von Steinheid?" |
14332 | The Yard? |
14332 | The method of procedure? |
14332 | The trouble arises from someone or something in his own household? |
14332 | Then in the name of Heaven, Cleek, what has become of the money? |
14332 | Then it is fair,said Cleek,"to suppose, in that case, that you have taken out one on your own life?" |
14332 | Then it is only when they are dressed and made up for the performance, eh? 14332 Then it was you I heard behind me?" |
14332 | Then the blunderer shot the child instead of the native? |
14332 | Then who are you? 14332 Then why should you?" |
14332 | Then, monsieur, how are we to seize them? 14332 There was an estate, then?" |
14332 | There''s something you want to say to me, is n''t there? |
14332 | They are beautiful, are n''t they? |
14332 | To receive the jewel and the letter? |
14332 | Two hundred quid? 14332 Villa de Carjorac? |
14332 | Was it his hand that gave it up? |
14332 | Well, to get on: the Comstocks were down in the deeps, and no hope of hearing any more from Australia and Uncle Phil, eh? 14332 Well, what next? |
14332 | Well? |
14332 | What a trial he must have been to the glove trade, must n''t he? |
14332 | What could you have said if you had spoken? |
14332 | What do you make of it, Cleek? |
14332 | What do you mean by saying that Sir Horace came down? |
14332 | What do you mean by that? |
14332 | What do you mean by''that''s all''? 14332 What has happened? |
14332 | What is it? |
14332 | What monstrous juggle is this? 14332 What shall you mean by that''going back on you''--eh? |
14332 | What the dickens are you talking about, Cleek? 14332 What was the charge at the garage?" |
14332 | What''s a horse-- even the best-- beside the loss of an honest life like that? |
14332 | What''s that? 14332 What''s the matter? |
14332 | What''s your name? |
14332 | When you what? |
14332 | When? 14332 Where is it? |
14332 | Where is the fragment we already possess? |
14332 | Which, of course, he declined to do? |
14332 | Who and what was the man? 14332 Who in this house could? |
14332 | Who is responsible for that ridiculous assertion, I wonder? 14332 Who is there? |
14332 | Who the deuce asked you for your opinion? |
14332 | Who told him that it does better in the atmosphere of a stable? |
14332 | Who? |
14332 | Why Miriam Comstock, of course-- did I forget to mention it? |
14332 | Why did n''t you say it was you, sir? |
14332 | Why give it up then, Miss Lorne? |
14332 | Why not go on letting me be your last hope-- your only hope? |
14332 | Why not? |
14332 | Why should n''t I know when I''ve been after him ever since he left Scotland Yard half an hour ago? |
14332 | Why should n''t it? 14332 Why then did he not appeal to the police?" |
14332 | Why wait for written reports, Mr. Cleek? 14332 Why? |
14332 | Why? 14332 Why?" |
14332 | Will I? 14332 Will the boy do it to- night, then, chevalier?" |
14332 | Will you let me thank you? 14332 Wot''s it now, Gov''nor?--the railway station? |
14332 | Wot''s the lay now? 14332 Yes, Gov''nor?" |
14332 | Yes, I do see, chevalier; but I wonder if he would be willing to humour me in something? 14332 Yes, but why?" |
14332 | Yes, but why? |
14332 | Yes, but-- who knows? 14332 Yes, my friend, but''Margot''--how about her?" |
14332 | Yes, old chap? |
14332 | Yes, old chap? |
14332 | Yes, sir? |
14332 | Yes-- why not? |
14332 | Yes; why not? 14332 You are certain it is not a fancy, but an absolute fact?" |
14332 | You are travelling with a servant? |
14332 | You drugged me? |
14332 | You found them? 14332 You gave him a chance? |
14332 | You have brought your motor, of course? 14332 You have n''t brought them with you, I hope, Mr. Narkom? |
14332 | You hear that, Clopin? 14332 You looked into heaven, and-- well, what then? |
14332 | You think it was fired, then? |
14332 | You think they have to do with the hiding of the paper or the pearl, cher ami? 14332 You think, then, that the thing is genuine?" |
14332 | You what? |
14332 | You will let me have the privilege, the honour? 14332 You wot called, was it? |
14332 | You would not think of calling Paganini a''fiddler,''he wrote;"why, then, should you degrade me with the coarse term of''cracksman''? |
14332 | You''d have put a bullet through me at the first word, would n''t you, but for that little''bluff''of suspecting and arresting another man? 14332 You, Miss Lorne?" |
14332 | You, sir, are that great man? 14332 You-- I-- Look here, I say now, what does this mean? |
14332 | You-- you do n''t mean that she-- that Zuilika-- killed him? |
14332 | _ Dix mille pardons, M''sieur_, there is something amiss? |
14332 | ''Ere you are, Miss Lorne-- lay hold of his little lordship, will you? |
14332 | *****"How did I guess it?" |
14332 | *****"How did I know that the body was inside the statue?" |
14332 | *****"How did I know the man?" |
14332 | --holding up the package he was carrying--"or a chance for me to do some fly catchin''with me bloomin''tickle tootsies?" |
14332 | --the cold bore of a revolver barrel touched her temple and wrung a quaking gasp of terror from her--"Do you feel that? |
14332 | --to the chauffeur--"Lanisterre, do you hear?" |
14332 | A double- quick change? |
14332 | A man to get a magic belt, to put it on, and then to melt away? |
14332 | A position as what?" |
14332 | A woman of that class?" |
14332 | Admiring the view or taking stock of Mrs. Culpin''s roses?" |
14332 | After he had risked so much to get them? |
14332 | Ai n''t et summink wot''s disagreed with you, have you, sir?" |
14332 | Ai n''t got such a thing as a biscuit about yer, have you? |
14332 | All ready there, Marguerite? |
14332 | All ready, Mr. Narkom? |
14332 | All the soap dishes in the house left filled last night and found filled this morning, captain?" |
14332 | An absurd belief, to be sure, but who can argue with a superstitious people or hammer wisdom into the minds of babies? |
14332 | And Lady Wilding and Mr. Sharpless-- do they, too, disapprove of racing?" |
14332 | And after all,"Thou shalt not enter"was to be written over the gateway of his ambition? |
14332 | And do you see those serpentine tracks through the middle of it? |
14332 | And drop it I would not after_ you_ had asked me to accept it, and-- Pardon? |
14332 | And had it been on that of the mother''s as well?" |
14332 | And how, pray, should we live if that were to happen?" |
14332 | And in London? |
14332 | And what can that have to do with your impoverished state?" |
14332 | And what does all that gibberish and that word''Ayupee''mean?" |
14332 | And what''s a Brazilian doing in the army of the Kaiser? |
14332 | And when does it happen in their case-- during the course of the show, or when there is nobody about but those connected with it?" |
14332 | And where''s a cove goin''to_ find_ this''ere''honest work''you''re a- talkin''of? |
14332 | And who may he be, Mr. Van Nant?" |
14332 | And why not? |
14332 | And why should he include me?" |
14332 | And yet-- and yet-- Ah, monsieur, how can I fail to feel as I do when this change in the lion came with that man''s coming? |
14332 | And you mean to tell me--""That they employed one of these deadly reptiles in this case? |
14332 | And, having been in it, what''s he doing dropping into this line-- backing a circus, and travelling with it like a Bohemian?" |
14332 | And_ that_ has been lost-- that gem so dear to Mauravania''s people, so important to Mauravania''s crown?" |
14332 | Any idea of what-- and how?" |
14332 | Any light in the darkness, old chap? |
14332 | Are we to fly at once to the mill and join him? |
14332 | Are you here?" |
14332 | Are you?" |
14332 | Are your sympathies with the unfortunate so keen, monsieur, that even this stray cur may claim them?" |
14332 | As for his identification of the body-- well, if the widow herself could find points of undisputed resemblance, why not he? |
14332 | At once, at once, do you hear? |
14332 | Avenge his death? |
14332 | Bawdrey?" |
14332 | Better?" |
14332 | Bonny little specimen of a Britisher, is n''t he?" |
14332 | But about that letter? |
14332 | But if there''s any messidge-- I say, who wants him? |
14332 | But is there anybody who would have a particular interest in your failure?" |
14332 | But of a sudden:"Miss Lorne,"he said, in a curiously tense voice,"may I ask you something? |
14332 | But tell me, does she show no anxiety, no fear of a search?" |
14332 | But then I do not care to get on the back of one-- so why?" |
14332 | But what interest could she or any of her tribe have in the death of Lady Chepstow''s little son? |
14332 | But what of it? |
14332 | But why should you connect these two persons with this inexplicable thing? |
14332 | But yes, vat shall that mean-- eh?" |
14332 | But, enlighten me upon a puzzling point, Sir Henry: What do you use coriander and oil of sassafras for in a stable?" |
14332 | But, of a sudden:"You came here directly after the matinee, I suppose?" |
14332 | But, pardon me, have you met with an accident, Mr. Bawdrey? |
14332 | By any chance that Sir Henry Wilding whose mare, Black Riot, is the favourite for next Wednesday''s Derby?" |
14332 | By what means?" |
14332 | Ca n''t you do something? |
14332 | Ca n''t you do this? |
14332 | Ca n''t you see any glimmer of light at all?" |
14332 | Ca n''t you see how nervous, how frightened, I am? |
14332 | Ca n''t you suggest something? |
14332 | Call this sort of tomfoolery being protected by the police? |
14332 | Came in to put more of the cursed stuff on the ninth finger of the skeleton, so that it would be ready for the next time, did n''t he, Dollops?" |
14332 | Can you remember what he said when he did that? |
14332 | Can you, monsieur-- can you?" |
14332 | Can you?" |
14332 | Case?" |
14332 | Cleek? |
14332 | Cleek?" |
14332 | Cleek?" |
14332 | Cleek?" |
14332 | Cleek?" |
14332 | Cleek?" |
14332 | Cleek?" |
14332 | College man, are n''t you? |
14332 | Come, may we not give ourselves a pleasant evening? |
14332 | Could any man resist the temptation to use it when he was endowed by Nature with the power to do this?" |
14332 | Could any man''go straight''with a fateful gift like that if the laws of Nature said that he should not?" |
14332 | Could n''t manage to take me round behind the scenes, so to speak, if Mr. Narkom will lend us his motor to hurry us there? |
14332 | Could, eh? |
14332 | Dear God in heaven, Mr. Cleek, what are you hinting at?" |
14332 | Dear God, can this be true?" |
14332 | Did I carry it off all right, Gov''nor? |
14332 | Did I do it jist as you wanted of it done?" |
14332 | Did Ulchester take kindly to this housing of the mummy of his father- in- law and the eventual coffin of his wife? |
14332 | Did anybody get at that?" |
14332 | Did anything happen?" |
14332 | Did he come? |
14332 | Did the men on guard hear no cry?" |
14332 | Did you see him, sir? |
14332 | Do I puzzle you by that? |
14332 | Do it? |
14332 | Do me a favour, will you? |
14332 | Do n''t mind if I sit in that corner and draw the curtain a little, do you?" |
14332 | Do n''t you hear them?" |
14332 | Do n''t you hear, you idiot?" |
14332 | Do n''t you see the answers, the acknowledgments, in the''Personal''columns of the papers now and again? |
14332 | Do you grasp it?" |
14332 | Do you know me? |
14332 | Do you know that I have a natural predilection for such things? |
14332 | Do you know what''s going to happen to you? |
14332 | Do you know who you had in your hands? |
14332 | Do you know who you let go? |
14332 | Do you know? |
14332 | Do you mean that ripping old firebrand?" |
14332 | Do you mean to say--?" |
14332 | Do you mind?" |
14332 | Do you object to that, or may I go on?" |
14332 | Do you remember Hamilton, the medical student, in New Zealand, eight years ago? |
14332 | Do you remember what I said about hitting upon a theory and offering it to the medical fraternity, only to get laughed at for my pains? |
14332 | Do you see where I sifted it over this spot near the Patagonian plant? |
14332 | Do you think the riddle you have brought is beyond my powers?" |
14332 | Do you understand? |
14332 | Do you understand?" |
14332 | Do you want me?" |
14332 | Do you want to know how he killed his victims, and what he used? |
14332 | Do you? |
14332 | Does the lion never''smile''for any of those?" |
14332 | Does your father do so, too?" |
14332 | Doubtless you have heard of that?" |
14332 | Eh?" |
14332 | Eh?" |
14332 | Feel that you can rely on Logan, do you?" |
14332 | Filled up, eh?" |
14332 | Finch is the fellow''s name-- isn''t it, doctor, eh?" |
14332 | For what? |
14332 | For who can fight a thing unseen and unknown?" |
14332 | From now till Thursday with jist you-- jist_ you_, sir? |
14332 | From whose hand?" |
14332 | Gawd''s truth, sir, you are n''t never a- goin''to give me two sich treats as that? |
14332 | Gimme the tip wot kind of work I_ can_ do for you, Gov''nor, will you? |
14332 | Got any more amazing things-- gems, I mean-- like that wonderful scarab? |
14332 | Had you any old friend in your college days whom your father only knew by name and who is now too far off for the imposture to be discovered?" |
14332 | Has he been here? |
14332 | Has he expectations of any kind?" |
14332 | Has he succeeded? |
14332 | Has it anything to do with the case you have in hand?" |
14332 | Has she come out of her retirement yet?" |
14332 | Have Gaston and Serpice arrived yet with the rest of the document, Margot la reine?" |
14332 | Have you any idea? |
14332 | Have you caught him? |
14332 | Have you found such things here?" |
14332 | Have you lost your wits? |
14332 | He is closely spied upon, then?" |
14332 | He is good company-- he talks well, he sings well, he is very handsome and-- well, what difference can it make to you? |
14332 | He stood waiting until the motor was abreast of him-- had, in fact, come to a standstill-- then spoke in a guarded tone:"What is it, Lennard?" |
14332 | He''d not be expectin''a stable to be scented with eau de cologne, would he? |
14332 | Headland? |
14332 | Hear any more from Uncle Phil after that?" |
14332 | Heard of him, have n''t you? |
14332 | Heaven forbid it, of course, but if anything should happen to Logan to- night, whom would you put on guard over the horse to- morrow?" |
14332 | Heavens above, Marguerite, did n''t you tell him?" |
14332 | Hide the pearl in it? |
14332 | Hop into it, will you, and meet me at the Fiddle and Horseshoe, between Shepherd''s Bush and Acton? |
14332 | How are they managing it, those two? |
14332 | How could the tossing of that coin have decided the sex of the wearer of those garments?" |
14332 | How did you get them out of the house?" |
14332 | How does the lady take it? |
14332 | How get them into our possession, his Majesty and I?" |
14332 | How has it come about? |
14332 | How is the poor old dear this morning, darling? |
14332 | How much respect will you have for him if he never lives up to his promise; never goes to Clarges Street at all? |
14332 | How, then, could you guess?" |
14332 | I are n''t too young to be''ungry, am I? |
14332 | I confess I have n''t the ghost of an idea regarding the case, Captain; but if you do n''t mind letting your daughter show me the room--""Mind? |
14332 | I had hoped that that might tempt a clever detective to take up the case; but what is such a sum to such a man as you?" |
14332 | I may not care to take the case when I hear it, so what''s the use of letting everybody know who I am?" |
14332 | I said in the beginning that his was either a case of swindling or a case of murder, did I not? |
14332 | I said, did I not, that I wanted to win her, wanted to be worthy of her, wanted to climb up and stand with her in the light? |
14332 | I say, Gov''nor, take off his silver wristlets, will you, sir, and lemme have jist ten minutes with him on my own? |
14332 | I say, Mr. Narkom, do give me a cup of tea, will you? |
14332 | I say, sir,"agitatedly,"look wot''s wrote on the envellup, will yer? |
14332 | I say: you''re not going to stop now that the great race is over, are you? |
14332 | I shall be right, shall I not, in supposing that all this is merely the preface to something else?" |
14332 | I should have thought he could have managed that, should n''t you, Mr. Narkom, if he could have managed the business of making him melt into thin air? |
14332 | I should have thought you would have remembered that, Mr. Cleek, when-- But perhaps you have never heard? |
14332 | I suppose that fellow Merode, as he calls himself, is in his room, waiting?" |
14332 | I suppose, Mr. Headland, that Mr. Narkom has told you something about the case?" |
14332 | I take it there must have been some good reason, Captain?" |
14332 | I want to get into every man''s room here, and wherever I find poison-- well, you understand?" |
14332 | I wonder how much it will surprise you to learn that, at the present moment, I have just one hundred pounds in all the world?" |
14332 | If a message was sent him by a carrier pigeon, where must that pigeon have come from, since it was one of Miss Morrison''s?" |
14332 | In other words, that that fellow you suspected in New Zealand did n''t really die after all?" |
14332 | In that safe?" |
14332 | Intends to take no further step toward proving it?" |
14332 | Is he dead?" |
14332 | Is it done?" |
14332 | Is it possible that you can have blood in your veins and yet take wondrous things like this so calmly?" |
14332 | Is nothing else possible? |
14332 | Is she safe?" |
14332 | Is that agreeable, Mr. Van Nant?" |
14332 | Is that the letter in your hand? |
14332 | Is that what you said?" |
14332 | Is the boy killed? |
14332 | Is the chevalier well- to- do? |
14332 | Is there anything we can do to help?" |
14332 | Is there anything you will need before you leave?" |
14332 | Is this the door of the picture- gallery, Sir Horace?" |
14332 | Is this the way?" |
14332 | Is this the welcome you give the bringer of fortune, Margot?" |
14332 | It is fair to suppose, from your rushing out here in quest of me, that you''ve got something on hand, is n''t it?" |
14332 | It is you--_you_--that calls upon me?" |
14332 | It was a significant glance, and said as plainly as so many words:"What do you think of it? |
14332 | It was horribly disfigured-- by contact with the piers and passing vessels-- but she and Anita-- and-- and my son--""Your son, Major? |
14332 | It''s a bully old world after all, is n''t it, Major?" |
14332 | Just look at it, will you, old chap?" |
14332 | Know anything about Richmond?" |
14332 | Know it, do n''t you? |
14332 | Landlady, see that we are not disturbed, will you, and that nobody is admitted but the parties I mentioned?" |
14332 | Let Dollops go home by train, and you meet me as I''ve asked, will you?" |
14332 | Let''s have a game of''Slap Hand,''you and I-- what? |
14332 | Look here"--he put his hand into his pocket and pulled out a gold piece--"do you know what that is, Major?" |
14332 | Look here, Captain Travers: what do you think of this fellow''s little game? |
14332 | Look here, Mrs. Bawdrey; look here Captain Travers; what do you think of a little rat like this?" |
14332 | Look here, do you know who you''re dealing with now? |
14332 | Lost in speculation? |
14332 | Madame, do you like music? |
14332 | Mates? |
14332 | Mauravania''s heir and-- a Russian?" |
14332 | May I trouble you for a pin? |
14332 | May I? |
14332 | Mr. Cleek, are you here? |
14332 | Mr. Narkom promised to look out for that, and-- I beg pardon? |
14332 | Mr. Narkom--"he turned to the superintendent--"keep an eye on Dollops for me, will you? |
14332 | My God, what are they doing it with? |
14332 | My dear Cleek, you do n''t believe that the man has been murdered?" |
14332 | My dear Cleek, you were serious, then? |
14332 | My signal is already hung out; shall we agree to the conditions and give him yours?" |
14332 | Narkom?" |
14332 | Narkom?" |
14332 | Narkom?" |
14332 | Narkom?" |
14332 | Narkom?" |
14332 | Narkom?" |
14332 | No''smile''for your old Tom, is there, Nero, boy, eh? |
14332 | Nobody can go by his looks; so how do you know?" |
14332 | Not so much of a money grabber as that muff Headland wanted you to believe, is he-- eh? |
14332 | Now then, what is it? |
14332 | Now what do you make of it?" |
14332 | Now what''s the password that Clodoche must give to Margot to- night at''The Twisted Arm''? |
14332 | Now, if you know, tell me what did the chevalier mean, what did his wife mean, when they spoke of a dream that might have come true, but did n''t? |
14332 | Now, if you please, Mr. Sharpless, will you stand beside her ladyship while I take up my place here immediately behind you both? |
14332 | Now, please, may we not walk faster? |
14332 | Now, the wig and beard, and after that-- What''s that you say? |
14332 | Now?" |
14332 | Of course that particular window opened upon a balcony or something of that sort, did n''t it?" |
14332 | Oh, Mr. Cleek, can we? |
14332 | Oh, Mr. Headland, do you think it is anything in the nature of a clue?" |
14332 | Oh, Mr. Narkom, can this be true?" |
14332 | Oh, monsieur, wizard though you are, can you get them past her guards? |
14332 | Oh, please will you go to him? |
14332 | Oh, who could have the heart? |
14332 | Oil of sassafras? |
14332 | One of''nobbling''? |
14332 | Only''grateful,''I wonder? |
14332 | Or is that really natural modesty? |
14332 | Or not this week at all? |
14332 | Or perhaps it may really be said to begin again where Shorty, the chemist, died, and the celebrated Spofford mystery ended-- eh, doctor? |
14332 | Or was he willing to stand for anything so long as he got possession of the huge fortune the old man left?" |
14332 | Or would you prefer that I should remain in the background as before?" |
14332 | Or, if you have not, do you think your fiancà © e has?" |
14332 | Owe me? |
14332 | Oxon or Cantab?" |
14332 | Pardon, but surely I have had the pleasure of meeting monsieur before? |
14332 | Pardon? |
14332 | Quite settled, both of you? |
14332 | Ready with the motor, chauffeur? |
14332 | Rum, my turning up just after Miss Lorne had written you and at a time when we both are needed, was n''t it?" |
14332 | Seriously?" |
14332 | Shall I nip off ahead or keep with you till we get there?" |
14332 | Shall I secure your tickets? |
14332 | Shall we give him the pledge he asks, Sir Horace? |
14332 | She had died-- but from what? |
14332 | She returned, then?" |
14332 | Signalling? |
14332 | Sir Henry"--he turned again to the baronet--"do you trust everybody else connected with your establishment as much as you trust Logan?" |
14332 | Sir Horace, why did n''t you think to tell me of this thing before?" |
14332 | So that was how it was to end, was it? |
14332 | So there is money in the background, eh? |
14332 | So this dear, deluded old gentleman, having failed to secure a''rune''in Java, brought back something equally cryptic-- a woman? |
14332 | So, then, it was all to be in vain, was it, this long struggle with the Devil of Circumstances, this long striving for a Goal? |
14332 | Some four or five months ago, was n''t it?" |
14332 | Somebody trying to get at the mare?" |
14332 | Soon?" |
14332 | Speak up, speak up, you hear? |
14332 | Stabbed or shot?" |
14332 | Suppose I take a chance and lend you five shillings, will you do some work and pay it back to me in time?" |
14332 | Suppose we say to- morrow noon? |
14332 | Sure of it, Sir Henry?" |
14332 | Surely they have got the wretch at last?" |
14332 | Surely when you see it you will be able to satisfy any misgivings you may have?" |
14332 | Surely, monsieur, I have seen you there?" |
14332 | Tell me, how did this Russian get the jewel, and when?" |
14332 | Tell me-- I''ll respect it-- tell me, for God''s sake, man, who are you? |
14332 | That French lady, or the red- headed party in the grey suit?" |
14332 | That was what it meant, eh? |
14332 | That you have been reading about the preparations for the forthcoming coronation of King Ulric of Mauravania?" |
14332 | That''s the idea, is n''t it?" |
14332 | That''s the sculptor fellow you said in the beginning had gone through his money, is n''t it?" |
14332 | That''s what you might call''giving with both hands,''Major, eh?" |
14332 | That''s why you have come to me, eh? |
14332 | The beard is real? |
14332 | The cases were somewhat similar, judging from the scanty outline you have given me, and-- What''s that? |
14332 | The cops''ull know me; and when you''ve got the nime-- well, wot''s the odds? |
14332 | The hair is real? |
14332 | The man had touched you, spoken to you, even caught up your hand and put it to his lips? |
14332 | The matter could n''t possibly have ended there, or else why this appeal to me?" |
14332 | The next day? |
14332 | The only thing that could open the Gates of Heaven for you?" |
14332 | The paper, my friend; you have brought it? |
14332 | The question is, which? |
14332 | The soap? |
14332 | The son of the man who drove an Englishman''s wife and an Englishman''s children into exile-- poverty-- misery-- despair?" |
14332 | Them beauties? |
14332 | Then Mr. Sharpless has been to South America, has he?" |
14332 | Then he turned to the Captain''s daughter, and asked quietly:"Would you mind letting me see the room from which the young man disappeared? |
14332 | Then it-- it''s not a mistake? |
14332 | Then of course she had no opportunity of seeing her uncle until he came here?" |
14332 | Then the thing appeared, I suppose?" |
14332 | Then who connected with the hall has been?" |
14332 | Then:"Is that true, Count?" |
14332 | There is no clue to the actual person and he is so cunning, so crafty-- Oh, please, will you go? |
14332 | They will not come off? |
14332 | This is Tuesday evening, is n''t it? |
14332 | This woman and this one- eyed man appeared last week in Mauravania, you say?" |
14332 | Those must have been trying times, Lady Chepstow, for the commandant''s wife, the mother of the commandant''s only child?" |
14332 | Thought you could lead me by the nose, and push me into finding those phials just where you wanted them found, did n''t you? |
14332 | Thought you had a noodle to deal with, did n''t you, Mr. Philip Bawdrey? |
14332 | Three days, Count; three days, monsieur with the puppy dog; three days, and not an instant longer, do you hear?" |
14332 | To do a thing like that?" |
14332 | To him? |
14332 | To that boy? |
14332 | To whom did he part with this gem-- a woman?" |
14332 | To whom?" |
14332 | To- morrow? |
14332 | Two hun-- W- what are you talking about? |
14332 | Was even the fancied moment in Paradise to be denied him then? |
14332 | Was he living in the same house with his fiancà © e, then? |
14332 | Was n''t it a kinematograph picture, after all?" |
14332 | Was n''t it true? |
14332 | Was n''t too much, was it, sir?" |
14332 | Was that same minute swelling-- the mark like a gnat''s bite-- on the neck of the boy''s body, too? |
14332 | Was the lady of his choice a native or merely an inhabitant of the island?" |
14332 | Was the person you allude to as''Young Phil''one of the sons that was murdered?" |
14332 | Was the place his home, as well as Captain Morrison''s, then?" |
14332 | Was there any mark on the door of the steel stall?" |
14332 | Was there no struggle? |
14332 | Well, if he dies without one, who will inherit his money, as I am an only child?" |
14332 | What a detective he''d a made, would n''t he, if he''d only a- turned his attention that way, and been on the side of the law instead of against it? |
14332 | What about me, old chap? |
14332 | What are you doing? |
14332 | What are you doing?" |
14332 | What are you giving me, you josser?" |
14332 | What are you talking about?" |
14332 | What are you, Cleek? |
14332 | What are you? |
14332 | What can possibly have caused the good lady to do a thing like that?" |
14332 | What can the ruined Château Larouge possibly have to do with the affairs of the Baron de Carjorac, Miss Lorne, that you connect them like this?" |
14332 | What can you be hinting against that poor, dear boy? |
14332 | What could make you think otherwise?" |
14332 | What do you make of that?" |
14332 | What do you think, Henry? |
14332 | What do you want?" |
14332 | What do you want?" |
14332 | What for?" |
14332 | What furnace? |
14332 | What game, Mr. Bawdrey? |
14332 | What has happened?" |
14332 | What has he done? |
14332 | What has made a woman like this pick up a fellow of his stamp? |
14332 | What has the young beggar invented, then?" |
14332 | What is it that has happened to your countenance? |
14332 | What is it that she is doing?" |
14332 | What is it? |
14332 | What is it? |
14332 | What is it? |
14332 | What is it?" |
14332 | What is the password of the brotherhood to the cause of Germany, stupid? |
14332 | What is this incomprehensible thing of which both you and Baron de Carjorac have spoken-- this thing you allude to as''The Red Crawl''?" |
14332 | What lion-- Nero? |
14332 | What next? |
14332 | What next? |
14332 | What next?" |
14332 | What next?" |
14332 | What next?" |
14332 | What on earth are you doing?" |
14332 | What on earth can be his object? |
14332 | What on earth can soap dishes have to do with it, man?" |
14332 | What others? |
14332 | What paralysed him, do you think?" |
14332 | What poison, man, what poison-- what?" |
14332 | What sort of a case is it?" |
14332 | What steps have you taken, Count, to prevent this?" |
14332 | What the dickens are you talking about?" |
14332 | What the dickens did you mean just now when you spoke about''the lion''s change''and''the lion''s smile''? |
14332 | What the dickens is this? |
14332 | What then, Miss Lorne, what then?" |
14332 | What would I be doing reading matters of that kind? |
14332 | What''her''?" |
14332 | What''s driven you to a dog''s life like this?" |
14332 | What''s his little game, I wonder? |
14332 | What''s it all about?" |
14332 | What''s that, Mr. Van Nant? |
14332 | What''s that? |
14332 | What''s that? |
14332 | What''s that? |
14332 | What''s that? |
14332 | What''s that? |
14332 | What''s that? |
14332 | What''s the case? |
14332 | What''s un name, sir?" |
14332 | What''s wrong?" |
14332 | What_ is_ the use?" |
14332 | When Baron de Carjorac recovered his senses after his horrifying experience--""That document was gone?" |
14332 | When and how shall I expect to see you again? |
14332 | When can you take hold of the case? |
14332 | When did you learn of it?" |
14332 | When will you have your luggage ready? |
14332 | When, do you fancy? |
14332 | When, sir-- when?" |
14332 | When, where, and how did these mysterious murders begin, Captain, if you please?" |
14332 | When? |
14332 | Where and how does that come in?" |
14332 | Where are the jewels? |
14332 | Where did you come from?" |
14332 | Where is he? |
14332 | Where is it?" |
14332 | Where is the boy, now?" |
14332 | Where''s the narker-- where-- where?" |
14332 | Where, if you please, did you acquire yours?" |
14332 | Where, if you please, did you acquire yours?" |
14332 | Where?" |
14332 | Which way did he go? |
14332 | Who are you? |
14332 | Who are you?" |
14332 | Who does not? |
14332 | Who is Mr. Harmstead, Captain?" |
14332 | Who is he?" |
14332 | Who is he?" |
14332 | Who would be likely to connect him with the death of a beast- tamer in a circus, who had perished in what would appear an accident of his calling? |
14332 | Who would not mother a thing that is to bring one four hundred thousand francs?" |
14332 | Who would, after having been promised wealth, education, everything one had confessed that one most desired? |
14332 | Who''s to tell as he are n''t in with they devils as is after Black Riot? |
14332 | Who? |
14332 | Why a''misfortune,''pray? |
14332 | Why are you following me? |
14332 | Why could not fate have spared the Villa de Carjorac? |
14332 | Why did n''t you say so in the beginning? |
14332 | Why do you say that you do n''t like it?" |
14332 | Why does it''smile''for no others? |
14332 | Why does she curry favour of him and his rich friend?" |
14332 | Why have you arrested the Señor Sperati? |
14332 | Why in the world did n''t you tell me in the first place?" |
14332 | Why is it only they-- my father, my brother-- they alone?" |
14332 | Why not call in person and see?" |
14332 | Why not stop on a day or two and call and see her?" |
14332 | Why not tell me at once that you are a winkle stall- keeper and be done with it? |
14332 | Why not the actual thing?" |
14332 | Why, I wonder? |
14332 | Why, how could you?" |
14332 | Why? |
14332 | Why?" |
14332 | Wilder ones have come true for other people; why should they not for you?" |
14332 | Will not that hurry you,_ la reine_?" |
14332 | Will that do?" |
14332 | Will this way lead me out? |
14332 | Will you allow me to escort you across the heath and see you safely on your way home? |
14332 | Will you come to the rescue, for my sake? |
14332 | Will you come?" |
14332 | Will you do nothing for her?" |
14332 | Will you have the tea?" |
14332 | Will you play the part of friend and guide and see me safely across the Channel?" |
14332 | Will you, Mr. Narkom? |
14332 | Will you?" |
14332 | Wo n''t you and Mr. Narkom go up and search without me? |
14332 | Wonder if it''s yours, madam?" |
14332 | Wot price me for arnswerin''of you, eh?" |
14332 | Wot''s that? |
14332 | Wot? |
14332 | Wot? |
14332 | Wot? |
14332 | Would any man have failed to fly to face the author of a foul lie like that?" |
14332 | Would he be there? |
14332 | Would he ever be nearer to it than he was to- night? |
14332 | Would he ever get that reward? |
14332 | Would you like me to show you the way?" |
14332 | Would you mind letting him make the feint you yourself made a few minutes ago? |
14332 | Yet if he does live up to it, will he not be doubly worth the saving? |
14332 | You accuse Uncle Phil?" |
14332 | You ai n''t a- going to tell me that he''s been there? |
14332 | You are going for a ride with me; and if-- Oh, that''s your little game, is it?" |
14332 | You are not interested in_ me, amigo_?" |
14332 | You are still stopping in the house, you and your son, I think you remarked? |
14332 | You believe you can outwit those dreadful people and save the Baron de Carjorac''s honour and his life?" |
14332 | You ca n''t possibly think that Abdul ben Meerza really sent the thing?" |
14332 | You came in your limousine, of course? |
14332 | You can remember it, can you not?" |
14332 | You did? |
14332 | You do n''t mean to tell me that you had him-- had him in your hands-- and then let him go? |
14332 | You do n''t mean to tell me that you let them take you in like that-- those two? |
14332 | You do n''t never_ mean_ that, sir?" |
14332 | You got him, then-- got him after all?" |
14332 | You grabbed him, did n''t you-- eh?" |
14332 | You hear that, my good servitors? |
14332 | You heard his scream, heard his fall, but he was dead when you got to him-- dead-- and you found no one here?" |
14332 | You heard me signal you to head him off, did n''t you?" |
14332 | You held them? |
14332 | You helped him to redeem himself? |
14332 | You know that blessed room at the angle just opposite the library-- the one with the locked door?" |
14332 | You mean it-- mean it? |
14332 | You meant it? |
14332 | You really do?" |
14332 | You really hope to get the things? |
14332 | You remember when I excused myself and went back on the pretext of having forgotten my magnifying glass the other day? |
14332 | You saw her lift that trap; and-- what then?" |
14332 | You took possession of them last night? |
14332 | You wanted the murderer of Mrs. Comstock and her children, did n''t you? |
14332 | You''d think her heart was breaking, would n''t you? |
14332 | You''ll use an alias, of course?" |
14332 | You''re not going back on me, are you?" |
14332 | You''re not going to ruin the show, are you, and after all the money I''ve put into it? |
14332 | You''ve come for us, I suppose? |
14332 | You, is it, Mr. Narkom? |
14332 | You, monsieur? |
14332 | You-- you do not mean to tell me that he caused that? |
14332 | You-- you really believe that suspicion points to Sir Gilbert Morford?" |
14332 | Young or old?" |
14332 | Your men will not want to search me of course, when I am merely popping out and popping in again like that, I am sure?" |
14332 | Your son?" |
14332 | _ What_ are you, dear friend?" |
14332 | _ Wot?_ Oh, go throw summink at yourself! |
14332 | a secret door? |
14332 | and, also, why? |
14332 | de Carjorac must make her home at the Château until the necessary repairs could be completed; and, of course, the baron had to go with her?" |
14332 | do you see them-- do you, madame? |
14332 | exclaimed the Count,"monsieur, what juggle is this? |
14332 | he said, in a voice that shook with nervous catches and the emotion of a soul deeply stirred,"Cleek to take the case? |
14332 | or what? |
14332 | or what? |
14332 | then he is dead, eh? |
14332 | what are you saying?" |
14332 | what do you suppose that means?" |
14332 | what have you stumbled upon now?" |
14332 | what is it? |
14332 | what is it?" |
14332 | what is wrong?" |
14332 | what''s that?" |
14332 | what''s this thing?" |
14332 | when? |
14332 | where?" |
14332 | who can tell? |
14332 | who may be spying? |
14332 | why do n''t you answer me, instead of staring at me like this? |
14332 | will no one tell me what has happened?" |
14332 | with a sudden change from seriousness to gaiety,"if I am to be led into sermonizing, might I not know what it is all about? |
14332 | wo n''t your missis be proud when you take her to see that bloomin''film?" |
14332 | you never let him get away, did you? |
