17603	Well, my lads,he exclaimed,"how do you like the way we spend our holidays out here, eh?"
17603	Well, what about it?
17603	What did he say?
17603	What do you say to trying it?

17603	What have you got?
17603	What kind of trouble?
17603	What made them?
17603	What makes you think so?
17603	What''s bitin''yuh, Chip?
17603	What''s that?
17603	What''s the matter, cap?
17603	What''s the use?
17603	What''s up?
17603	Where?
17603	Who had been riding herd on that north range before Buck saw the trail of the drove?
17603	Who said it was a grizzly?
17603	Why should we?
17603	Why, are they so vicious about it?
17603	Why,said Bert impatiently,"do n''t you boobs realize that up in the mountains here the snow is often four or five feet deep in the early spring?
17603	You do n''t mean the Custer Massacre?
17603	You do n''t mean there''s talk of an outbreak among them, do you?
17603	You''ll find that when Bert says a thing he generally means it,remarked Dick,"but what is it all about, anyway?
17603	You''re not going to starve me to death, are you?
17603	Ai n''t that straight?"
17603	But how could he follow without detection?
17603	But how do you feel, Bert?"
17603	But we do n''t mean no harm, do we, Red?"
17603	But what could they do?
17603	But you lads,"he said, turning to the three friends,"where were you bound for when you were attacked?"
17603	But, after all, what right had he to arrest the man?
17603	But, if so, why the air of secrecy?
17603	Can you wise us up on this yere mooted p''int?"
17603	Could he do it?
17603	Did you bring any along?"
17603	Do n''t you see?"
17603	Have yuh ever done much runnin''?"
17603	He says t''me,''Waal, Chip, I reckon you boys on the ranches hereabouts wo n''t pick off the prize money this year in the footrace, will yuh?''
17603	How about tackle?
17603	How could the grizzly reach that high?
17603	How do you account for the other four or five?
17603	How do yuh feel?''
17603	Is there anything really doing, or is it all just talk?"
17603	Outside of that he ca n''t run worth a cent, can he, Dick?"
17603	Own up, now, ai n''t you?"
17603	Tom, got that paperweight handy?"
17603	What are you going to try for first, pickerel or bass?"
17603	What do you say, Sam?"
17603	What do you say?"
17603	What had happened to him?
17603	What was done with them?"
17603	What was it that he offered to run in?"
17603	What''ve yuh got to say t''that, eh?"
17603	Who figured it out?"
17603	Why not?
17603	Why should this man be giving money to the half- breed?
17603	You remember, Sandy, that little scrap in Mexico I told you about?
17603	exclaimed Dick;"the old sinner''s never satisfied unless he''s winning something or other, is he?"
17603	queried Sandy, speaking for his surprised companions,"yuh think we ought t''get a''ringer''on our own account to beat this professional sharp?"
17603	questioned Dick,"anything wrong?"
17603	shouted Mr. Melton;"what are you standing around watching them for?
17349	About what?
17349	And are you going off without trying to help those boys? 17349 And did you put any faith in that promise?
17349	And how do you suppose he escaped from the Indians when they had him bound to the stake? 17349 And leave me tied up here?"
17349	Are you Pierre Costello?
17349	Are you asleep?
17349	Are you going to answer my question?
17349	Are you going to get off that horse?
17349	Be they follerin''you?
17349	Blunderbuss?
17349	But what I want to know is, what will you do with me?
17349	But why is your day''s fun all knocked in the head?
17349	Ca n''t you see?
17349	Ca n''t you tell me what''s the matter?
17349	Certainly; but I did n''t tell you to abuse me, did I? 17349 Could I?
17349	Could n''t you remain until day after to- morrow?
17349	Could you do it?
17349	Did you ever travel on horseback in such frightful places as this, during your wanderings in Europe?
17349	Did you go through the war?
17349	Did you hear what I said?
17349	Did you see any of the boys hurt?
17349	Did you see him?
17349	Do n''t you know that you are under the doctor''s care?
17349	Do n''t you remember how badly frightened Pete used to be when there was one of those varmints around?
17349	Do you find it a more pleasant and profitable business than herding cattle?
17349	Do you take me for a savage?
17349	Do you think they will get away, Joaquin?
17349	Do you want me to kill you?
17349	Eh?
17349	Have you forgotten that we told you to keep your distance?
17349	Have you forgotten the one you killed with your knife? 17349 Have you got the impudence-- the brass, to come to us, and ask what''s the matter, after what you have done?"
17349	He is at home, I suppose?
17349	He is caught at last,thought our hero;"how shall I get him home?
17349	How are you, Colonel?
17349	How are you, strangers?
17349	How big is he?
17349	How did you find it out?
17349	How do you do?
17349	How do you know that Pierre tried to poison him?
17349	How is the rifle- shot, this morning?
17349	How long did it last?
17349	How old is he?
17349	I have found you, have I?
17349	I told you that I was going to make you tell me where you had put that office key, did n''t I? 17349 I wonder if Pierre thinks we can fly?"
17349	I wonder what part of Europe he visited to find his lions and tigers?
17349	If we do get into trouble, and you find it out, you''ll come to our rescue, wo n''t you?
17349	If you had the key in your hand now, what would you do with me?
17349	If you know where the robber is hidden, why do n''t you tell Mr. Winters, and claim the reward?
17349	Is Marmion dead?
17349	Is that your final answer?
17349	It''s lucky that he is with us, for he is an old hunter, and he wo n''t mind riding into the bushes, and driving him out-- will you, Arthur?
17349	Now, Archie,said Carlos, as he stopped to wipe the big drops of perspiration from his face,"what would you do with this fellow?"
17349	Now, is n''t this glorious?
17349	Now,said Frank, who had been impatiently awaiting an opportunity to talk to his uncle,"I''d like to know what brought you back here last night?"
17349	Pierre,said he,"if I tell you where that key is, what will you do?"
17349	Shall a gentleman''s son stoop to beg the good- will of a lot of young Arabs? 17349 So you have got back, have you?"
17349	So you have turned highwayman, have you?
17349	Then why did you advise your uncle to detain him? 17349 Then you wo n''t tell me where it is?"
17349	Vane,said Mr. Harris, as he sprang into his saddle,"you will stop on your way home, and tell Mr. Winters, will you not?"
17349	Vane,said he, suddenly, an idea striking him,"who commanded your vessel when you were captured?"
17349	Was a gentleman ever before so insulted? 17349 Well, Colonel,"said Frank,"you come near going back to India by a short route, did n''t you?"
17349	Well, suppose you have; what do you propose to do about it?
17349	Well, then, why do n''t you come and take me?
17349	Well, what are you thinking about?
17349	Well, what''s the row?
17349	What are you going to do?
17349	What are you going to do?
17349	What do you mean by going off to hunt rabbits when you ought to stay at home? 17349 What do you mean by hitting a man when he is down, and ca n''t move hand or foot?"
17349	What do you mean by that?
17349	What do you mean?
17349	What do you mean?
17349	What does the rascal mean, I wonder; and who can be writing to me so early in the morning?
17349	What else could we do?
17349	What for?
17349	What if my horse should slip off? 17349 What sort of a fellow is he, Johnny?"
17349	What would you do?
17349	What''s the matter with you?
17349	What''s the matter?
17349	What''s the use? 17349 What''s up?"
17349	Where are they?
17349	Where are what?
17349	Where''s what?
17349	Where?
17349	Which mast?
17349	Who are you?
17349	Who can that be?
17349	Who did it? 17349 Who ever heard of such a thing?"
17349	Who told you it was a wolf?
17349	Who? 17349 Why did he leave his extra powder- horn in his canoe, when he knew that the Hurons were all around him?
17349	Will he fight much?
17349	Will the small gentleman from Maine be kind enough to pass the plum- pudding-- I mean the one that''s got the most raisins in it?
17349	Will you do it?
17349	Wo n''t you suffer for this day''s work if we ever get back to the settlement?
17349	Would n''t you run?
17349	Would you fire that blunderbuss at him?
17349	You are not going to throw me over, are you?
17349	You do n''t suppose that we four fellows will let one man capture us, do you?
17349	You have done something worth boasting of, have n''t you?
17349	You remember that you struck Johnny last night, when he was bound, hand and foot, and could n''t defend himself, do n''t you?
17349	You thought I had left the country, did n''t you?
17349	And did you not tell him where you had put the key?"
17349	And what excuse have you to offer for allowing that robber to get up after you had pulled him down?"
17349	Are you going to let me up?"
17349	But how shall we get away?
17349	But what did he do to you?"
17349	But, uncle, how came you by that wound?"
17349	But, where was Marmion, that he was not following up his enemy?
17349	By the way, what sort of fellows do you suppose Pierre takes us for, if he imagines that he can frighten us into carrying tales about one another?"
17349	Ca n''t you give me time to think about it?"
17349	Did Pierre ever tell you how nicely I fooled him?"
17349	Did n''t I know all the time that there was something up?
17349	Did n''t I say that we should see trouble with that fellow?
17349	Did n''t I see him with my own eyes, and hear him growl with my own ears?
17349	Did you ever meet him while you were hunting lions and tigers in Europe?"
17349	Do n''t you think it a capital way to raise the wind?"
17349	Do you agree to all this?"
17349	Do you know him?
17349	Do you suppose that if you were in Pierre''s place, and I knew where you were concealed, that I could be hired to play false to you?
17349	Finding that he was discovered, Pierre removed his sombrero and said, without the least embarrassment:"Is it your pleasure to ride?
17349	Frank obeyed, and the Ranchero, while he was busy confining him, inquired:"Do you remember what I said to you at noon?"
17349	He holds his age well, does n''t he?"
17349	He was certain that the Ranchero had intended to harm Marmion; but why?
17349	How had he been so easily overpowered by Pierre?
17349	How have you kept those promises?
17349	I hope you understand that?"
17349	I say, old fellow,"he added, turning to the sentinel,"are you a good shot on the wing?"
17349	I wonder if he thinks I am foolish enough to ride for pleasure at this time of day, with the thermometer standing a hundred degrees in the shade?
17349	If that is a grizzly, and we should be fortunate enough to kill him, it would be something worth bragging about, would n''t it?
17349	If the latter had any thing to say to the chief, why did he not talk to him in the camp?
17349	Is that treating me like a gentleman or a visitor?"
17349	Is the gold in the safe?"
17349	Is the money in the safe?"
17349	Johnny Harris did n''t call me a coward, did he?
17349	Johnny Harris, what was that name you applied to me?"
17349	Johnny soliloquized:"Does this fellow imagine that we are green enough to believe that he would stand and let a lion walk up within ten paces of him?
17349	Now, little un, whar''s the rest of them fellers?"
17349	Of course, the first question that arose was, What object could he have in view?
17349	Then I''d say:''Good- by, Mr.--Mr.''--what''s your name?"
17349	Well, it was established, but how?
17349	Whar''s Frank?"
17349	What did you do to me this morning?
17349	What do you suppose your uncle will think, when he comes home and finds you hanging to this hook?
17349	What have you in that gun?"
17349	What is your opinion of that plan?
17349	What rascal?
17349	What would Uncle James say if somebody should break into the house and steal it?"
17349	What''s the matter with you?"
17349	When I look toward you, why do n''t you give me a wink, or a nod, to show that you have not forgotten your promises, and that you will protect me?"
17349	Where is he?"
17349	Where is it?"
17349	Where''s that key?"
17349	Where''s that key?"
17349	Where''s that?"
17349	Will you do it?"
17349	Would I have been coward enough to do it?
17349	Would n''t it be all right if I should leave it here with you?"
17349	You are not afraid?"
17349	You say that Frank did n''t read to me what he wrote in that letter?"
17349	You surely did not ask your uncle to send any money for you and Archie?"
17349	You will go with us, of course?"
17349	You wo n''t tell me where the key is, then?"
17349	[ Illustration]"How are you going to do it?"
17349	and, What was the matter with Marmion?
17349	continued Johnny, as he shook hands with the boys;"and what news has the champion horseman to communicate?"
17349	cried Frank,"would n''t I tumble that villain in a hurry?
17349	inquired Frank,"and what was the cause of it?"
17349	said Frank, patting the animal''s glossy neck,"would n''t we show them a clean pair of heels?
17349	what thing?"
45720	Are those elk? 45720 Arm tired?"
45720	Awake, Jack?
45720	But Hugh,said Jack, as he hurried down the hill,"what made the other deer fall; did I hit both?
45720	Can you get your leg out? 45720 Did Red say anything about the Indians at Washakie?"
45720	Did n''t you see the way that fellow was going? 45720 Did you ever see a fight, Hugh?"
45720	Do you mean one of the little wolves that run down antelopes, Uncle Will?
45720	Do you think they could have missed the train?
45720	Do you think they would have tried to kill you, if they had seen you?
45720	Do you want to lead the way, Jack?
45720	Goin''to tie the stirrups, Tony?
45720	Hallo, Hugh,interrupted John,"you get it one coyote?"
45720	Have n''t you forgot something?
45720	Have the coyotes been bothering them at all?
45720	He keeps a pretty good look- out, do n''t he?
45720	Hello, Jack, are you there?
45720	How are the calves, Hugh?
45720	How are you going to feed and water them puppies? 45720 How are you, Hugh?"
45720	How do you manage to poison them, Hugh?
45720	How do you mean, Hugh?
45720	How far below us are they, Hugh?
45720	I do n''t know; what?
45720	I wonder what the men thought?
45720	Is it time to get up, Hugh?
45720	Is it?
45720	Is n''t he pretty, though? 45720 It''s splendid, is n''t it?"
45720	No, I did n''t know that,said Jack,"how did they do it?
45720	No, that sinopah-- what you say it, Hugh?
45720	Now, d''ye see,he said,"how I hold it?
45720	Now, the question is,he said to himself, as he hurried toward camp,"can I find my way back to Hugh?
45720	Oh, Hugh, what''s that?
45720	Oh, Hugh,he called,"ca n''t we take this bundle with us?
45720	Oh, I do n''t know, Uncle Will; how far are they?
45720	Oh, Mr. Monroe,said Jack,"is that a coyote off there?"
45720	Oh, Uncle Will,he said,"is that you?"
45720	Oh, Uncle Will,said Jack, grasping his uncle''s arm,"what are those?
45720	Oh, may I go up alone and do it all myself? 45720 Oh, what is it?"
45720	Oh, would n''t I like to? 45720 Pshaw, Hannah,"said Jack,"what are you talking about?
45720	See''em?
45720	Sho,said Hugh;"did n''t it hurt you when he bucked with you, Sis?"
45720	Suppose you want it kill''i m one h''elk? 45720 Tell me, John, are the young men going to war much these days?
45720	That yelling?
45720	That''ll be bully; let''s do it; but can we get close enough to see him well?
45720	That''ll be splendid, Hugh, if I can only do it; but how can I teach him? 45720 The smartest animal that travels the prairie, are n''t they, Hugh?"
45720	Then the elk are travelling around a good deal now, are they, Hugh?
45720	Then they''ve caught antelopes, have they?
45720	There are no Indians about here now, are there, Hugh?
45720	There, what''d I tell ye?
45720	This is nice and warm, is n''t it?
45720	This is the time of year when they whistle, is n''t it, Hugh?
45720	This your nephew? 45720 Two elk, Mr. Monroe; oh, where?"
45720	Was n''t there any way to have cured it?
45720	We''ve got a long way to go, but do you suppose we''ll be able to find another nest near the ranch?
45720	Well now, son, ai n''t you thought that out yet?
45720	Well, Jack,said he,"are you ready to start in to- morrow to be a cowboy?"
45720	Well, Uncle Will,said Jack,"first, I want to know how long it will take us to get out to the ranch?"
45720	Well, but Hugh, where is the antelope? 45720 Well, but how do you catch them then?"
45720	Well, hold on now; what will we do for a whistle? 45720 Well, kid,"said Hugh,"did ye get any coyotes to- day?"
45720	Well, looks like it, do n''t it?
45720	Well, now look here,said Joe,"you know that orphan colt?
45720	Well, now, what do you suppose I found when I got down there?
45720	Well,said Hugh,"did n''t you ever see that before?
45720	Were those coyotes that were running around? 45720 What did the thing feel like that hit you on the head, son?"
45720	What do you mean by reading sign, Uncle Will?
45720	What do you mean by that, Hugh?
45720	What fellow do you mean, Hugh,said Jack;"the thing that made that noise?"
45720	What had we better do, Hugh?
45720	What in the world''s that, Hugh?
45720	What is it, Hannah?
45720	What is it, Hugh?
45720	What is it, Joe?
45720	What is that enormous creature you have there, Johnny?
45720	What kind of trap is that, Hugh?
45720	What makes those mountains look so grey, Uncle Will? 45720 What was it, Hugh?"
45720	What''s Great South Bay, and where''s it at?
45720	What''s the matter with you?
45720	Where had I better go, Hugh? 45720 Where in time did these fish all come from, Hugh?"
45720	Where''s the bear, Uncle Will,said Jack,"where did he go to?"
45720	Why did you leave all the dogs at home?
45720	Why do n''t you see?
45720	Why does Rube sit on his head, Hugh?
45720	Why does n''t he move when his eyes are covered, Hugh?
45720	Why, Hugh,said Jack,"how in the world did you find where they were?"
45720	Why, I did, of course,answered Jack;"what''s the matter with it?
45720	Why, Jack, what are you doing on the orphan? 45720 Why, Johnny, Johnny,"said his mother,"can this be you?
45720	Why, Uncle Will, do n''t you suppose I know that? 45720 Why,"said the baggage master, who seemed to be recovering his nerves,"he does seem gentle, do n''t he?"
45720	Will it ever get tame? 45720 You killed it, did you, son?
45720	You''re sure you do n''t want to back out now? 45720 After a moment''s hesitation, he exclaimed,Oh, that''s blood, is n''t it?
45720	Are all antelopes that way?
45720	Are these the regular deer that we have in the east?"
45720	Are you a pretty good whistler?
45720	As he saw Jack on the fence he called out:"You''ve come down to get your horse, have you?
45720	As the men were leaving the house after dinner, Jack called to Hugh and said,"Hugh, ca n''t you think of something for me to do?
45720	At length Hugh bent toward him and whispered,"Do n''t you see his horns?"
45720	Before they had stabled the horses they heard a clear voice calling,"Why, Charley, what''s the matter with Blue Dan?
45720	But how do you catch all these things?
45720	But was he charging us, Hugh?"
45720	But what was that big bird that made such a noise when it flew up?
45720	Can you whistle loud?"
45720	Could we get a shot, do you think?
45720	Did I hit him or did I miss?"
45720	Did ye ever think of that?"
45720	Did you feel like running?"
45720	Did you see any tracks, father?
45720	Did you sleep well?
45720	Do n''t ye see they''ve got stone points?
45720	Do n''t you see you''ve got the saddle on hind side before?
45720	Do n''t you want to try it now, and surprise your uncle and the old man?"
45720	Do you feel pretty sore this morning?"
45720	Do you see that low place in the line of the horizon, just to the right of the horses''heads?
45720	Do you see that white rock, the small one to the left of that sage- bush?
45720	Do you see there, near the top?
45720	Do you suppose any of those wild horses will throw Tony?"
45720	Do you think he''ll be very tough?
45720	Do you think we''ll get any game to- day?"
45720	Do you think you can do it?"
45720	Do you think you could carry it?
45720	Do you want to come down to the corral?"
45720	Do you want to take it with you or to leave it here?"
45720	Does n''t it?"
45720	Get it some meat?"
45720	Have they got tame yet?"
45720	He paused to relight his pipe, and Jack said:"But how did they know that these were the people who killed the emigrants?"
45720	He said to him:"Now, son, when we get near those antelope, who is going to do the hunting, you or me?"
45720	He thought for awhile, and decided that he must make a torch; but what could he make it of?
45720	How are you, my son?
45720	How could that be?
45720	How did ye do it?"
45720	How would that go with the berries, eh?"
45720	How''s the old man?
45720	I did forget all about that, did n''t I?
45720	I guess you did, and I do n''t believe you remember much about getting here last night, do you?
45720	I see that Hugh has caught your horse; do you think that you can catch his?"
45720	I''d rather do that than have any help,"said Jack,"Can I start now?"
45720	Is the horse lying on it?"
45720	Is there any other wild animal besides the coyote that catches them?"
45720	Is your gun loaded?"
45720	It bumped, did n''t it?
45720	It was a pretty sharp trick now, was n''t it?"
45720	It''s cold too, is n''t it?"
45720	Jack asked:"What is frightening the horses, Uncle Will?"
45720	Living up north, yet?
45720	Now, how do you suppose they do that, Jack?"
45720	Now, son, can you go back to where the horses are and bring them on, while Charley and I butcher?"
45720	Now, what do you expect that is?"
45720	Pointing to it, he said,"You kill it''''i m bear, Hugh?"
45720	Queer, is n''t it?
45720	Right after dinner?"
45720	Say,"he continued, as he rose to his feet and looked at the pack horse,"who saddled that horse?"
45720	See these presents?
45720	See''i m h''elk comin''h''up this side?"
45720	Son,"he continued, speaking to Jack,"do you want to go along?"
45720	Sturgis?"
45720	Suppose maybe you goin''back sem time my go?"
45720	That was a pretty big bird, but not as big as a sage hen, is it?"
45720	That''s queer, is n''t it?"
45720	Up on the mountain?"
45720	Was it a partridge?
45720	Well, well; how are you?
45720	Were you much scared?"
45720	What are they?
45720	What can it be?"
45720	What do you say?"
45720	What do you say?"
45720	What scared them?"
45720	When Jack reached him, Hugh said,"Well, you did n''t have no trouble, did you?"
45720	When he reached it Hugh said to him with a smile:"Where''s your bird?"
45720	When you goin''back there?"
45720	Where did the tide come from?
45720	Where''d ye hit it?"
45720	While they were attending to the horses, Jack said to Charley,"How are the wolf puppies getting along?
45720	Why you no make''em trap like H''ingin?"
45720	Will Sturgis, what have you done?
45720	Would you rather sit here till it is ready, or go out doors?"
45720	You have plenty of time before dinner, have n''t you?"
45720	You see this little hole?
45720	You see those two little blue dogs, the smooth ones, the two that are ahead?
45720	You take these little chickadees or these little brown ground birds; you never heard of them growing as big as an eagle or goose, did you?
45720	You took notice, did n''t you, how close that one that howled was to us?
45720	called Jack,"ca n''t I let him out?
45720	he called back,"There are thirteen eggs; ca n''t we take them along?"
45720	he said;"do you think we can get up to them?"
45720	or was it just the way the colts were killed?"
45720	said his uncle,"or shall one of us go first?"
27511	''Where are you goin''?'' 27511 An''he thought he was tellin''you something new when he said it, too, did n''t he?
27511	And how far beyond that is Little River?
27511	And so you blackmailed him under threat of telling, did you?
27511	And the last?
27511	And you with all the money? 27511 Any candidates at present?"
27511	Anybody got the makin''s?
27511	Anybody in mind?
27511	Are n''t the other two still alive? 27511 Are those things true?"
27511	Are you comin''down to join us?
27511	Are you going to make me go?
27511	Are you ready, boys?
27511	Are you sure he will love you always?
27511	Are you taking Mike''s part against me?
27511	Better be reasonable now, had n''t you?
27511	Better lose a hoss fer the sake of yer good looks than be a comic valentine all yore life, what?
27511	Boys, where''s the nearest tree?
27511	Boys,he said,"which of you was down at the Big Horn last night an''turned them sheep back?"
27511	But about the papers that you said were in Chicago?
27511	But can you save him, even at that cost, do you think? 27511 But can you stand a sheepman in the family?"
27511	But how did you get down over the Bar T range?
27511	But what will happen now?
27511	But what''ll yuh do with a thousand cattle on yore hands?
27511	But what''s your orders, Simmy?
27511	But when did you come out?
27511	But why on earth did n''t you let me know? 27511 Ca n''t we get Bissell in this party?
27511	Can I do anything to help you?
27511	Can I ever be worth what I have cost you to- day?
27511	Can you ride a horse?
27511	Cattle?
27511	Cows here?
27511	Did you bring many of the boys down with you?
27511	Did you get him?
27511	Do n''t you know?
27511	Do you defy me?
27511	Do you know what time it is? 27511 Do you know who that Ed Skidmore is?"
27511	Do you mean, young feller, that you wo n''t tell me about them rustlers?
27511	Do you remember the first night Caldwell came to the Bar T ranch?
27511	First I want to know why you wrote it?
27511	From down East, eh? 27511 Got a gun, Julie?"
27511	Got a horse for me?
27511	Have you reverted to your original untamed condition?
27511	He is? 27511 He was in that stampede with yuh, was n''t he?"
27511	He was one of the party sent out to string yuh up, was n''t he?
27511	How d''ye take the blame things? 27511 How did you get mixed up in it?"
27511	How did you learn all this?
27511	How do you know I had Caldwell write it?
27511	How do yuh sell''em?
27511	How is she? 27511 How is that?"
27511	How long are you going to stay in this country?
27511	How many are there?
27511	How many did you scatter?
27511	How''d it happen, boys?
27511	How''d they know where I was?
27511	How''ll we get yuh out?
27511	How? 27511 How?"
27511	How?
27511	I allow old Bissell will be glad to see you when you''re brought in, eh?
27511	I have, eh?
27511	I know you made Caldwell write that letter,she said, balancing the gun,"and I want to know why you did it?"
27511	I should think the hull outfit, cook- wagons, an''all, could make the visit to the Bar T."Yeah?
27511	I suppose they all want to marry you?
27511	I took a slant through my glasses, and what d''yuh suppose I seen? 27511 Is n''t it funny for that other man to get seasick out here where we ca n''t get enough water to drink?"
27511	Is n''t it jolly to be married without anyone''s knowing?
27511	Is that all you got to say?
27511	Is that so?
27511	Is that your final word on the matter?
27511	Is that your last word on the subject?
27511	Is there a Mr. Larkin here?
27511	Just what do you mean by that?
27511	Kind of a dude or something back East, was n''t he?
27511	Larkin,said Joe,"we allow as how we''d like to make a bargain with yuh?"
27511	Marry that dirty sheepman?
27511	Mebbe yuh do n''t like yore flowery bed of ease out there, what?
27511	Miss Julie, I ai n''t no hand at fine talk, but I want to ask yuh if you will marry me? 27511 More?"
27511	No bad news I hope?
27511	Now, Larkin,began Bissell,"these men know what you''ve been tryin''to do to my range--""Do they know what you did to my sheep?"
27511	Now, what do yuh say to do?
27511	Now, will you go over with me or will you go down the river to your father two miles away?
27511	Oh, but wo n''t they be surprised at home?
27511	Oh, what shall I do? 27511 Ready?"
27511	Reasonable? 27511 Shall I tell you about it?"
27511	Shall I wait for you? 27511 Shore, boys, shore,"said Sims impatiently;"but how?
27511	Suppose I get''em all in one group so you ca n''t take individuals, then what will you do?
27511	Swear on oath never to recognize or bear witness against us?
27511	Talk to me a little while first, will you?
27511	Tell me what''s that ungodly mess up in Little River; it was night an''we could n''t see?
27511	Tell me, did any of his party come through alive?
27511	That''s your game, is it? 27511 Then what''s become o''Jimmie Welsh and his nine men?"
27511	Then you could have given the alarm at any time?
27511	Then you do sometimes miss the things you have been educated to?
27511	Then you give me only twenty- four hours?
27511	Then yuh remember that Smithy Caldwell got five hundred dollars from yuh after a talk by the corral, do n''t you?
27511	They did?
27511	This sheepman Larkin-- is it true yuh been courtin''with him while I been away?
27511	Thunderation, boss, what''ll we do?
27511	Turn my arms loose, will you?
27511	Well, darn it, what do yuh want?
27511	Well, have you forgotten all your Eastern education?
27511	Well, how in the road to hell can yuh take''em when it''s dark?
27511	Well, then, why you had Caldwell write it?
27511	Well, what do you want?
27511	Well, what''s the story now?
27511	Well, you are growed up, ai n''t you?
27511	What about the lay of the country?
27511	What ails yuh, Jimmie? 27511 What are you doing here?"
27511	What are you doing out here?
27511	What are you saying, Mike?
27511	What are you trying to see?
27511	What became of that two thousand I gave you before I left Chicago?
27511	What d''yuh mean by that?
27511	What did he do with it?
27511	What did this here Caldwell do with the money?
27511	What did you find this morning?
27511	What do you mean by that? 27511 What do you mean by that?"
27511	What do you mean by that?
27511	What do you plan to do now?
27511	What do you want?
27511	What do yuh want of me?
27511	What do yuh want to know about it?
27511	What does he want with you?
27511	What does this mean, boss?
27511	What have you got?
27511	What is it, Pedro?
27511	What is it?
27511	What is it?
27511	What is the matter with them?
27511	What is the thing for which Caldwell blackmailed you three years ago and again this year?
27511	What proof?
27511	What reason did he give for telling you?
27511	What under heaven are you doing out here, Lester?
27511	What were you doing out on the range last night?
27511	What''d they say to yuh?
27511	What''d''ye tell''em?
27511	What''re yuh doin''this for?
27511	What''re yuh goin''to do with me now?
27511	What''re yuh goin''to do with me, Larkin?
27511	What''s that?
27511	What''s that?
27511	What''s the use of riding all the way home and having a grand row with your father?
27511	When will you have some more?
27511	Where are the cowmen?
27511	Where are the next two thousand?
27511	Where are the sheep?
27511	Where are you going now, Bud?
27511	Where is the next nearest ford?
27511	Where''s your father?
27511	Where?
27511	Who is this creature?
27511	Who was he? 27511 Who''s there?"
27511	Who, Mike? 27511 Why did n''t you keep them on the other side?
27511	Why did you give Caldwell five hundred in the first place, Larkin?
27511	Why did you write me that letter, Caldwell?
27511	Why do n''t they know everything?
27511	Why do you want to know about them?
27511	Why not go over to Rattlesnake, where there''s a sky- pilot, and be married? 27511 Why not?"
27511	Why wo n''t you marry me?
27511	Why?
27511	Would you mind if I loved him a little bit, too?
27511	Would you swear on the Bible that you overheard what you have told me?
27511	Would yuh let sheep go up yore range? 27511 Yeah, an''get strung up to the nearest tree fer my pains, eh?
27511	Yes, I do; and do you want to know the reason for it?
27511	Yes, but who''s driving now? 27511 Yes, but wo n''t they be out on the open Bar T range when we get them over?"
27511	Yes, ma''am?
27511	You can?
27511	You mean to tell me that he was married before?
27511	You remember that feller Caldwell that rode in late to supper the night Larkin come?
27511	You''ll stay the night with us, wo n''t you?
27511	You''re not discouraged, are you, dear?
27511	Yuh wo n''t mind?
27511	''Bout eighteen?"
27511	And then, without waiting for a reply:"What does this mean?"
27511	And, if so, why did Caldwell write this letter?
27511	Answer me this, Julie, are you in love with him?"
27511	Are yuh locoed?"
27511	Bissell?"
27511	But how?
27511	But tell me, Bud, what brings you out West in general and here in particular?"
27511	But what''s the use of prolonging the agony?
27511	But who?
27511	But without admitting this to Stelton she asked:"What was it all about?"
27511	CHAPTER XVII A BATTLE IN THE DARK"Everything ready?"
27511	Ca n''t they make trouble?"
27511	Cain''t yuh see that if yuh hang this feller we''ll have both the sheep and cattlemen ag''in us?"
27511	D''ye think I''d do a thing like that?
27511	D''ye think I''m a fool?"
27511	Did n''t yuh see him turn yaller at the table?"
27511	Did you drop out of the sky somewhere?"
27511	Do you absolutely refuse to tell about them rustlers if I do n''t do as you want and let your sheep through?"
27511	Do you call that right or just, either one?"
27511	Do you expect me to get your breakfast?"
27511	Do yuh know what yore doin''?"
27511	Does it to you?"
27511	Even when attacked by wild animals at night they do not seek the shepherd, but stand and bawl to the valiant(?)
27511	Get seventy men on the same thing that''ll only hold one?"
27511	Had the foreman of the Bar T been listening and heard all?
27511	Has he much of a case?"
27511	He was Black Mike Stelton, foreman of the Bar T."What do you think, Mike?"
27511	He''s never killed a man, has he?"
27511	Hear that, boys?"
27511	Hope to see me swing, too, I suppose?"
27511	How about it?"
27511	How and why?
27511	How did he happen to be received and at perfect ease among a band of desperate rustlers?
27511	How long did you say you had been in the West?"
27511	How much do you want?"
27511	How much of truth, therefore, was there in Stelton''s innuendoes?
27511	How old are you, anyhow?
27511	Hurry like blazes, eh?"
27511	I wonder where our friend is?"
27511	If he were honorable, how could it be that the officers were after him?
27511	If these men had been driving the cattle why did they not continue to drive them instead of turning aside to make prisoner a harmless sheepman?
27511	In the course of an hour Bissell suddenly asked:"Did you ever think of marryin'', Prairie Bell?"
27511	Is breakfast ready?"
27511	Is that it?"
27511	It made me plenty mad, too; but what could I do about it?
27511	Julie, do yuh know what yore sayin''?
27511	Larkin?"
27511	Must he go away without as much as a word from her, the one for whom he cared more than all the rest of the world?
27511	Now will yuh tell us how you got in with''em in the first place?"
27511	Now, just because I am curious, will you tell me why you went into the sheep business?"
27511	Oh, by the way, how near are the sheep to our eastern herd of cows?"
27511	Oh, what have I said?"
27511	Oh, wo n''t there be the deuce to pay?"
27511	One of the Bar T punchers?"
27511	Safe?"
27511	Shall I show yuh?"
27511	Stelton''s dark face was illumined for a moment with a crafty smile, and then he said:"Yuh know a man by the name of Smithy Caldwell, do n''t yuh?"
27511	Stelton, how many men will be in to- night?"
27511	Tell me that, would yuh?"
27511	That you will help this scoundrel?"
27511	That''s the second bunch cut out of that herd, ai n''t it, Mike?"
27511	Think I do n''t know you, Caldwell?"
27511	Was there some occult power about the man-- some almost hypnotic influence that passed his crossed eyes and narrow features in that company?
27511	What are you tryin''to do, kid me?"
27511	What d''ye say?"
27511	What d''ye think of that?"
27511	What did yuh do to his sheep, Beef?
27511	What do you say?"
27511	What have you done with your money?"
27511	What is it?"
27511	What kind of a crook do you think I am?
27511	What possible reason could there be for the quixotic actions of the man he hated more than any other in the world?
27511	What puts such awful thoughts into your head?"
27511	What the deuce are yuh talkin''about?"
27511	What you do here?"
27511	What''s the matter with''em?"
27511	What''s the matter?"
27511	What''s your answer?"
27511	When he had apparently satisfied an inordinate thirst he looked up at the man across the river and said:"Say, could I git some grub in yore camp?"
27511	Who are you?"
27511	Who is he?"
27511	Who, then, was driving them?
27511	Why are the officers after Bud?"
27511	Why do n''t yuh let''em through, yuh ol''fat- head?"
27511	Will you take the word of an absolutely disinterested observer that the man is almost mad about you, and would sell his soul for one of your smiles?"
27511	Will yuh give''em to me?"
27511	With a wood- fire?"
27511	With that contraption yuh''ve got there?"
27511	You trust me to be sensible, do n''t you, father?"
27511	You was with''em long enough to know some of''em again, I allow?"
27511	You''re not a sheepman?"
27511	Yuh pull our teeth an''then offer us grub, eh?
27511	he growled as they rode along the bank,"ai n''t yuh got no consideration fer me?
33615	A big difference between Central Park and this, eh? 33615 A pig?
33615	A wild goose chase? 33615 Advice?
33615	Afraid, Chet?
33615	Ai n''t gwine ter tote me ter town, is yo''?
33615	Ai n''t ye? 33615 Air ye fellers goin''ter speak?"
33615	And he has no real claim to it?
33615	And may I ask to whom am I indebted for my life?
33615	And no clew?
33615	And that being so, the question is, how did he manage, after he was once here, to get_ out_?
33615	And what of you?
33615	And what shall Paul and I do in the meantime?
33615	And what''s the row, Allen, I want to know?
33615	And when will that be?
33615	And who is he?
33615	And whyfore should I turn him over to you, seein''as how he belongs to me?
33615	And you ca n''t remember if any of them were addressed to me?
33615	Are there any mines in the foothills?
33615	Are you alone here?
33615	Are you sufficiently armed?
33615	Armed? 33615 Back ag''in, hey?"
33615	But how came you in it?
33615	But if the captain is known wot show have we got?
33615	But the thing of it is, who met him in San Francisco, and what did they do?
33615	But they did not succeed, did they?
33615	But what do you know?
33615	But what shall we do with Bluckburn?
33615	But where is he?
33615	But where is the cave?
33615	But wo n''t you come to our ranch with us? 33615 Ca n''t two of us ride on the mare?"
33615	Ca n''t you turn over?
33615	Can it be Allen?
33615	Can it be a pig?
33615	Can you follow the trail?
33615	Can you hold him, Blowfen?
33615	Clar out, do ye hear me?
33615	Did n''t the buffalo touch the bush?
33615	Did n''t you have a torch?
33615	Did they come right down on you?
33615	Did they say where they had taken him?
33615	Did you ever see this cross before?
33615	Did you hear what he said about Captain Grady?
33615	Did you leave that door unlocked?
33615	Do n''t trust me even yet, do ye?
33615	Do n''t ye know I would have plugged ye on sight?
33615	Do n''t you know what it is to have us able to speak a word for you?
33615	Do ye acknowledge the corn?
33615	Do ye see old Ephraim?
33615	Do ye see them, over thar?
33615	Do you mean that you will lead us without any further trouble?
33615	Do you really believe he discovered the rich mine he talked about?
33615	Do you remember the badger, Paul?
33615	Do you see him?
33615	Do you think I''ll stand sech talk?
33615	Do you think we can do it?
33615	Dottery, did ye hear that?
33615	Goin''ter San Francisco?
33615	Gone? 33615 Gone?"
33615	Got him to leave San Francisco?
33615	Got yer papers, ai n''t ye?
33615	Have you any idea where we are going?
33615	Have you any idea who the thieves can be?
33615	Have you anything in the shape of a rope with you?
33615	Have you been up to the house?
33615	Have you found anything?
33615	Have you that letter?
33615	Have you that man?
33615	He ca n''t be shamming, can he?
33615	How are ye, Urner?
33615	How did I escape?
33615	How did they find their way here?
33615	How did you get under the tree trunk?
33615	How do ye make that out?
33615	How do you feel?
33615	How do you like that, you milk- and- water cow puncher?
33615	How do you think he escaped?
33615	How far is Dottery''s?
33615	How many animiles did they git?
33615	How many of them, on a rough guess?
33615	Hurt? 33615 I believe you said you had the original title papers to the ranch, did n''t you?"
33615	I hope he brings good news, do n''t you? 33615 I reckon you did n''t expect to see me quite so soon again, did you?"
33615	I wonder how she got out of the river?
33615	I wonder if we ca n''t find shelter until the worst of this is over?
33615	I wonder where Dottery is?
33615	I wonder where it started from?
33615	I-- I-- where am I?
33615	If we tell our story, do n''t you imagine Dottery will turn in and help us bounce you out of here?
33615	Is that the distance to Daddy Wampole''s hotel, as you call it?
33615	Is there any concealed wealth upon it?
33615	Is there no name on the back?
33615	It must have hurt you to land in the thorn bush?
33615	Let the horse go, do you hear?
33615	Me?
33615	No, I do n''t recerlect thet, Allen, but hold on-- do ye suspect the cap''n o''tamperin''with yer mail?
33615	Nor I. Whoever would have thought of such a thing when we left home?
33615	Now, what''s to do?
33615	O, Paul, what is that?
33615	Oh, you do n''t really think such a thing would happen?
33615	Say?
33615	See here, Grady, what does this mean?
33615	See those marks on his side where we tipped him? 33615 Shall we capture her?"
33615	So he took most of the letters, did he?
33615	So you know something of Captain Grady and our uncle, Barnaby Winthrop?
33615	Stop, do you hear?
33615	Supposin''we talk it over with my pard first? 33615 Supposing somebody followed us and found out the secret?
33615	Supposing we do n''t care to show them to you?
33615	Supposing we let Jack Blowfen take you over to the next camp and tell the men that you are a downright horse thief? 33615 That tree-- Did I go over into the hollow?"
33615	The Hollow looks different in the daylight, does n''t it?
33615	The buffalo are almost all gone now, are n''t they?
33615	The fall hurt him,said Allen,"Look after my horse, will you?
33615	The same chaps ez robbed you?
33615	Then ye acknowledge thet, do ye?
33615	Then you advise us to go?
33615	Thet so?
33615	Tramped to death by the others?
33615	Watson, can you hold yonder branch?
33615	We''ll rest until the worst of the heat is over; eh, Ike?
33615	Well, what do you make out?
33615	Well, what have you?
33615	Well?
33615	Were you ever caught in a buffalo stampede, Ike?
33615	Whar are the others?
33615	Whar''s your own horse?
33615	What could one fellow do against two or more? 33615 What did you do?"
33615	What do ye want?
33615	What do you know?
33615	What do you wonder?
33615	What does this mean?
33615	What does this mean?
33615	What is it?
33615	What is the use? 33615 What is wrong with it?"
33615	What made you think of him in connection with Captain Grady?
33615	What makes you so anxious for the place?
33615	What matter?
33615	What now, Ike?
33615	What now?
33615	What of Slavin?
33615	What on earth does it mean?
33615	What shall we do?
33615	What was it?
33615	What''s the matter with ye, boy?
33615	What''s the meaning of this outrage?
33615	What''s the reason you do n''t care?
33615	What''s the trouble, did you have to shoot him?
33615	What''s to do now?
33615	What''s up?
33615	What''s up?
33615	What''s wanted?
33615	When do you suppose we''ll reach Dottery''s?
33615	When? 33615 Where are they?"
33615	Where do you suppose the men went to?
33615	Where in the land of goodness has it gone to? 33615 Where is my uncle?"
33615	Where is our uncle now?
33615	Where?
33615	Which way did they go?
33615	Who be they, Paul?
33615	Who can they stand for?
33615	Who is that?
33615	Who is this?
33615	Who were the men?
33615	Who''s thar?
33615	Why did n''t ye leave us in like gentlemen an''thus avoid all trouble?
33615	Why should Uncle Barnaby leave the hotel in that fashion if all was perfectly straight?
33615	Why should he object?
33615	Will I help ye? 33615 Will you help me in this work?"
33615	Will you shut up?
33615	Will you stop now?
33615	Will you?
33615	With the buffalo all around you?
33615	Wo n''t Allen be glad when he hears of it?
33615	Wot did ye see?
33615	Wot do yer want?
33615	Wot is yo''gwine to do wid me?
33615	Wot''s he puttin''his hand into his pocket fer?
33615	Wot''s ter do about it?
33615	Wot''s ter prevent me goin''after him, boys?
33615	Wot''s the meanin''o''two healthy boys a- bummin''around the ranch sech an all- fired fine day as this yere?
33615	Wot''s the trouble?
33615	Would ye?
33615	Would you know the spot if you were in the vicinity?
33615	Would you know them if you saw them again?
33615	Yes, indeed, but still-- what was that?
33615	Yo''mean Saul Mangle?
33615	You are not going alone, are you?
33615	You are not going to sit down and suck your thumb, are you, Paul?
33615	You bought the ranch, and have the papers to prove it?
33615	You mean you wo n''t speak unless we grant you your liberty?
33615	You say you discovered the robbery but a short while since?
33615	You wo n''t budge, hey?
33615	You wo n''t?
33615	Your horse? 33615 An Unpleasant DiscoveryWhen do you think Allen will be back, Paul?"
33615	And Allen, Paul, and Chet?
33615	And he held up a scrap which bore the words:"--you and Chet can meet me and Paul----""Is it in your uncle''s handwriting?"
33615	And how is that new mine, an''what kind of a trade are ye goin''to make with Captain Grady, eh?
33615	And poor Allen?
33615	And the young man continued:"What shall we do with the wolverine?"
33615	Are you going to get down now or not?"
33615	Are you not glad to see me?"
33615	Arfter sech a plunge?"
33615	At the four corners of the cross were the letters D A F G."What do you make of it?"
33615	But had n''t we better look to our horses?"
33615	But how am I to get to the railroad station without a horse?"
33615	But if thet young feller saved my life why I''m----""What?"
33615	But look, what is that ahead, a building?"
33615	But surely, Chet, you do not regret taking that for such a purpose?"
33615	But where are those villains?"
33615	But where has the trail gone to?"
33615	But who would be mean enough to do it?"
33615	But wot are ye doin''here?
33615	By whom?"
33615	Come here, why do n''t you?"
33615	Could it be possible that the thieves were raiding their nearest neighbor?
33615	Could it be possible they suspected the claim was up in that neighborhood?
33615	De ye want ter pitch me in a hole?"
33615	Did n''t I hear ye talkin''it over down ter Casey''s Forks only yesterday?
33615	Did not the cry come from over there?"
33615	Disappearance of Slavin"What''s that?"
33615	Do n''t you smell him?"
33615	Do you hear me?"
33615	Do you hear?"
33615	Do you see those letters-- D A F G?
33615	Eh, Allen?"
33615	Eh, Lou?"
33615	Glad to see me, eh?
33615	Had that communication from Uncle Barnaby contained any reference to the valuable claim over by the Black Rock River?
33615	He is rascal enough to try to locate it and set up a claim, eh?"
33615	How am I to get over?"
33615	How in the name of creation am I to climb up there?"
33615	I mean, do you know where the men went from here?"
33615	I wonder how he ever found it?"
33615	I wonder what he wants now?"
33615	In the sink hole?"
33615	Let''s see-- we went off about eight o''clock, did n''t we?"
33615	M.?"
33615	O, Ike, have you word from my uncle?"
33615	Perhaps you have heard of him?"
33615	Say, will you watch this man if I follow Jack?"
33615	Shooting a Grizzly Bear"I wonder if Captain Grady is alone or if he has a number of the gang with him?"
33615	Something about Barnaby Winthrop"My uncle a prisoner about ten miles from here?"
33615	Supposin''I tell yer the truth about the hull gang, does that save me?"
33615	The cave may not be persackly by the pines but in sight o''them, do ye see?"
33615	Then ye war carried down the Black Rock River?"
33615	Understand?"
33615	Urner?"
33615	Was there an opening to the outer world, or was he entombed alive?
33615	We''ll break thet up in a jiffy; eh, Slavin?"
33615	Whar is Barnaby Winthrop?"
33615	Whar''s Barnaby Winthrop?
33615	What are you at?"
33615	What does that mean?"
33615	What does this mean?"
33615	What is that?"
33615	What shall we do with him?"
33615	What were Chet and Paul doing?
33615	What would be the use?
33615	What''s best to be done?"
33615	Where was he and how would he ever be able to gain the outer world once more?
33615	Which way did the thieves go?"
33615	Who knows but what some communication from your uncle was carried off by another?"
33615	Who opened it?
33615	Why ai n''t ye hum?"
33615	Why, Allen, what do you mean?"
33615	Will you give us some advice how best to proceed?
33615	Wot brings ye here?"
33615	Wot yo''know ob him?"
33615	Would you fancy that?"
33615	went on Paul suddenly,"I wonder if it has destroyed the marks Allen left whereby the mine is to be found?"
33615	what was that?"
19816	''What is it that is black and white, but red all over?''
19816	''When is a waiter not a waiter?''
19816	A real automobile like the one that we rode down here in from Pineville?
19816	All in blue clothes?
19816	Am I sleeping?
19816	And Jerry, too?
19816	And are you a Bunker? 19816 And he acts awfully funny, does n''t he?"
19816	And here it is----"Not the splinter?
19816	And is n''t it black and white?
19816	And may n''t we all go and act in it, Daddy?
19816	And the soldiers?
19816	And then where should we be?
19816	And what can we expect? 19816 And what would it have done then?"
19816	And what''s the matter with you, Laddie?
19816	And where has he gone for his nap?
19816	And why do they strap their babies to boards?
19816	And you, Rose?
19816	And-- and-- and what shall_ we_ do?
19816	Another Bunker-- and named''Mun Bun''? 19816 Are n''t we going to get to that wanch- place pwetty soon, Muvver?"
19816	Are n''t you, Russ?
19816	Are they safe?
19816	Are they?
19816	Are you hurt, child?
19816	Are you in pain, you poor baby?
19816	Are you sure Mr. Scarbontiskil got your message, Charles?
19816	Are you sure about the third of a cent, Russ?
19816	Are you sure, Laddie?
19816	Are-- are you going to stop it, Russ?
19816	Ask him if he will juggle the soup again if we come in here to eat?
19816	At what?
19816	Bears bite, do n''t they?
19816	Black-- white-- and red?
19816	But I can pick you up-- this way-- and carry you off, ca n''t I?
19816	But I wonder where the pony left her?
19816	But do n''t we ride out to your ranch on them?
19816	But how do they get it off?
19816	But if it is so, why do n''t they have shorter legs?
19816	But if you practise from now, right on----"But what is the use of practising if we are not going there with daddy?
19816	But in the book there were pictures of soldiers in the Mexican War-- When was that, Russ?
19816	But suppose-- suppose,stammered Russ,"your Indians should forget and really turn savage?"
19816	But what is it, Mother?
19816	But why does the car bump at all? 19816 But-- but what did they do to that woman at the cabin-- and her baby?"
19816	Ca n''t we take him and Pinky with us?
19816	Can I make a riddle out of it?
19816	Can it?
19816	Can we go look out of the door, Mother?
19816	Can you save the calf, Russ?
19816	Can you spare some of your Injuns for an hour?
19816	Could n''t he make his own name-- and make it a better one?
19816	Daddy, why do we jump up and down so when the car bumps?
19816	Did I hear somebody speak?
19816	Did it fly over? 19816 Did it hurt them-- like it did Mun Bun and me when the tree fell on us?"
19816	Did n''t he, Rose?
19816	Did you ever?
19816	Did you wish, Margy?
19816	Did you? 19816 Do all foreigners have whiskers?
19816	Do n''t they have little boys and girls down there on the ranch where he lives?
19816	Do n''t they? 19816 Do n''t we all like her?"
19816	Do n''t you hear it?
19816	Do n''t you suppose we''ll ever see my watch and Laddie''s pin again?
19816	Do the Indians like fleas?
19816	Do you all give it up?
19816	Do you know where you dropped them?
19816	Do you mean a coal strike is bully? 19816 Do you suppose he will?"
19816	Do you suppose it is_ real_, or just make- believe?
19816	Do you suppose we can catch it? 19816 Do you think we Bunkers could get a chance to act in it, Chief Black Bear?"
19816	Do you want to go home to Pineville, Mun Bun?
19816	Do-- do you suppose the Indians were trying to steal him?
19816	Does a giraffe look like any horse you ever saw?
19816	Does the thunder hit you?
19816	Has he got more names than that?
19816	Has it teeth-- and claws?
19816	Have n''t we played everything there is?
19816	He is, is he?
19816	He thought we were Mrs. Bam-- Bam---- Laddie, whose little boy and girl did that man think we were?
19816	Hear what this Texas longhorn says, Chief?
19816	How can you when you have n''t any blacking and brush here?
19816	How did it get over the rock?
19816	How do you know it''s-- it''s being done?
19816	How does he tumble into trouble?
19816	How will you mail them? 19816 How you going to help him, Russ?"
19816	I could n''t go away out West to Cowboy Jack''s and leave my little Bunkers under that old house, could I?
19816	I know I can get to him; but how can I pull him up out of the mud?
19816	I reckon this is about where you saw the Indians and the camera men, Son?
19816	I wonder what it can be?
19816	I wonder who it belongs to? 19816 I''d like to know why not?"
19816	I''m going to ask you: What looks like a dog- house, but is n''t a dog- house?
19816	Is he calling for help?
19816	Is he part cow and part boy?
19816	Is it Daddy Bunker?
19816	Is it a good one?
19816	Is it a riddle, then?
19816	Is it clothes on clotheslines, like Norah''s washlines? 19816 Is it loose?"
19816	Is it my pin?
19816	Is it something we can eat? 19816 Is it-- is it my_ watch_?"
19816	Is n''t Cowboy Jack enough name for him?
19816	Is n''t he just cute?
19816	Is n''t that a good riddle?
19816	Is that a red calf, Tad Munson?
19816	Is that man father is going to see an_ awful_ foreigner, Russ?
19816	Is that the broken English for little boy and little girl?
19816	Is that the right way to get off a pony?
19816	Is-- is he being mur-- murdered?
19816	It is bad enough to have Mun Bun disappear in this mysterious way----"But why does he disappear-- and everything?
19816	It is:''What is the difference between a flea and a leopard?''
19816	It-- it is n''t going to be a real fight, is it?
19816	Mur-- murdered?
19816	Muvver,he said soberly,"do you got pep''mint?"
19816	My stick- pin that I left at Grand View, Mother? 19816 Now what will you do with them?"
19816	Now, where can that boy be?
19816	Now, would you?
19816	Oh, have you? 19816 Oh, what''s that?"
19816	Only babies take naps, do n''t they, Muvver?
19816	Rose? 19816 Russ, and Rose, and Violet, and Laddie, and Margy?
19816	Say, please, Mister,she continued to ask,"what makes you wear earrings?"
19816	Scalping people, and all that?
19816	See it?
19816	See that path, Laddie? 19816 Shall we take our bathing suits, Mother?"
19816	So mother will say I am a good boy, wo n''t she?
19816	So why_ do_ they?
19816	Some dog that boy puts on, does n''t he, Charlie?
19816	Still, Charles, maybe I had better not unpack our trunks quite yet?
19816	Suppose our train had been going by when the rock fell?
19816	Then they do n''t ever feel like turning savage and fighting the white folks in earnest?
19816	Then where are they?
19816	Then, why should we red people want to fight you? 19816 This is the riddle: Why is Mun Bun like a sprinkling cart?"
19816	Those Indians? 19816 Was he one of those awful painted Indians we saw riding down on the cabin?"
19816	Was she over at my wikiup the other evening?
19816	We''d better get our guns and bows and arrows, had n''t we, Russ?
19816	Well, I can clean them, ca n''t I?
19816	Well, does mother shave, too?
19816	Well, why do they jump?
19816	Wha-- what are you doing, Russ Bunker?
19816	What are you doing then, if you''re not itching?
19816	What are you doing, Mun Bun?
19816	What are you going to do if you grow sleepy?
19816	What are you trying to do, Mun Bun?
19816	What can we do for the poor calf, Russ?
19816	What chippy? 19816 What do I see?
19816	What do you mean-- strike?
19816	What do you suppose it is, Daddy?
19816	What do you suppose that is?
19816	What do you think of_ these_ for cow ponies?
19816	What does an engine have oil for? 19816 What does he say?"
19816	What does it drip?
19816	What have you lost?
19816	What is Dripping Rock?
19816	What is bully?
19816	What is it, Laddie?
19816	What is it, then?
19816	What is it?
19816	What is the answer, Laddie?
19816	What is the difference between a flea and a leopard? 19816 What is the riddle, Laddie?
19816	What is the surprise?
19816	What makes them steal, Mother?
19816	What makes''em foreign? 19816 What man''s name?"
19816	What place?
19816	What shall we play?
19816	What would the rock have done to us?
19816	What you chilluns been a- doin''here, eh?
19816	What you lost?
19816	What''ll we play?
19816	What''s a riddle?
19816	What''s a riddle?
19816	What''s a spirit, Russ?
19816	What''s funny?
19816	What''s that I hear?
19816	What''s that, little boy?
19816	What''s that? 19816 What''s the matter, Russ?
19816	What''s those?
19816	What''s washouts?
19816	What-- what''ll I wish?
19816	What_ is_ his name?
19816	What_ was_ it, Russ?
19816	When is a dream not a dream?
19816	Where are Russ and Vi and Mun Bun?
19816	Where are they?
19816	Where did n''t you have it?
19816	Where did she go? 19816 Where did you see Indians?"
19816	Where does the oil come from?
19816	Where is Mun Bun, then?
19816	Where is he?
19816	Where''s Mun Bun?
19816	Where''s Vi and Mun Bun?
19816	Where? 19816 Where?"
19816	Which way did Mun Bun go?
19816	Who do you see?
19816	Who got struck?
19816	Who put it in that horrid swamp?
19816	Why ca n''t we stop and wait?
19816	Why did it pin me down across my legs?
19816	Why did the old thunder stroke have to do that?
19816	Why do Indians wear feather dusters in their hair?
19816	Why do they call him that?
19816	Why does he do what?
19816	Why does he talk so funny?
19816	Why does it cost that much?
19816	Why has n''t he?
19816	Why is a swamp like what we eat for breakfast?
19816	Why is he called a waiter?
19816	Why is n''t it?
19816	Why is n''t this road smooth?
19816	Why not?
19816	Why not?
19816	Why not?
19816	Why_ does_ he?
19816	Will you, Russ?
19816	Wish I would n''t what?
19816	Wo n''t those old rails get splinters in your hands?
19816	Wo n''t you sink down in the mud, too, if you do that, Russ?
19816	Would n''t they be nice to make dirt pies in, Margy?
19816	You bambinoes want- a get run over-- yes?
19816	You do n''t feel like turning savage and fighting red men do you?
19816	You do?
19816	You going to burn the calf at the stake?
19816	You mean Dinah, do n''t you?
19816	You reason from the cause of a lack of coal, to an effect that you need not go to school?
19816	You sure the little fellow is n''t anywhere about?
19816	''How do we know Robinson Crusoe had plenty of fish to eat?''"
19816	''Laddie''?
19816	A hen- house, Laddie?"
19816	And are you_ sure_ he''ll come back looking for us?
19816	And he was bound to recognize Vi when the little girl stammered:"What''s happened?
19816	And how about that baby?"
19816	And if the engine_ did_ fly over, it could n''t have dragged the cars with it, could it?"
19816	And if we ca n''t go to school for a month, why ca n''t we go with daddy?
19816	And is n''t a swamp just like mush?"
19816	And is this the Missus?"
19816	And this boy, her twin, you say?
19816	And what shall I ever eat, if I do?
19816	And''Violet''?
19816	Another Bunker?"
19816	Are n''t you going to take us to Cowboy Jack''s?"
19816	Are you a currant bun, or a cinnamon bun, or what kind of a bun are you?"
19816	Are you going to burn that poor calf like the Indians used to burn folks?"
19816	But what was the use of crying when there was nobody here to care?
19816	But, having reached the animal, what could the boy do?
19816	But-- but that is n''t a splinter he has sent you, is it, Mother?"
19816	CHAPTER IX THE BIG ROCK THAT FELL DOWN"Where is it?
19816	CHAPTER V GOOD- BYE TO GRAND VIEW"Did n''t you-- any of you-- see which way he went?"
19816	CHAPTER X WHERE ARE THE TWINS?
19816	CHAPTER XVII IN CHIEF BLACK BEAR''S WIGWAM"Where is Black Bear, Mary?"
19816	CHAPTER XXIV MUN BUN IN TROUBLE"Why does he do it, Daddy?"
19816	Ca n''t I give her a present too?"
19816	Ca n''t you see him?"
19816	Can a wooden horse_ run_?"
19816	Could we, Mother?"
19816	Cowboy Jack''s bump?"
19816	Cowboy Jack,"she demanded,"why do grasshoppers jump?"
19816	Cowboy Jack?"
19816	Daddy Bunker said again:"I wonder if he could show us where he left Rose?"
19816	Did she come back alone?"
19816	Did the house fall on my legs, Russ?
19816	Do I know it?"
19816	Do Indians, too?"
19816	Do n''t you hear them?
19816	Do n''t you think so?
19816	Do n''t you, Vi?"
19816	Do they keep it in a cruet, like that cruet on the table in the hotel we stopped at coming up from Grand View?"
19816	Do you itch?"
19816	Do you know, it costs three dollars and thirty- three and a third cents every time the train stops?
19816	Do you see how that is?"
19816	Do you suppose anybody lives in that little house?"
19816	HONEY BUNCH: HER FIRST DAYS ON THE FARM Can you remember how the farm looked the first time you visited it?
19816	He asked Russ:"Which way did you come down here from the house, Son?"
19816	He wanted to be grateful for anything that Cowboy Jack said he would do; but-- but----"Will Daddy Bunker go too?"
19816	Hear it?"
19816	Honest?"
19816	How about Black Bear?"
19816	How big the cows and horses were, and what a roomy place to play in the barn proved to be?
19816	How could they go back to Mother Bunker and tell her that her little boy was lost on this great ranch?
19816	How does he manage to get into so much trouble?"
19816	I never saw the wings on that engine, did you?
19816	I wonder if he is thirsty?"
19816	If we only had''em when we were at home, would n''t they be nice?"
19816	Is he, Daddy?"
19816	Is it morning?"
19816	Is it?"
19816	Is n''t he, Mary?"
19816	Is there a post- box in the car?"
19816	It-- it would n''t be fair to Cowboy Jack not to take us to see him, would it?"
19816	Let''s see: There should be six, should n''t there?
19816	Mr. Bunker, with the four bigger little Bunkers( does n''t that sound funny?)
19816	Now, that''s all, is n''t it?"
19816	Or is it a surprise we can play with?"
19816	Please, why do you wear''em?"
19816	Props is?"
19816	Props?
19816	Scarbontiskil?"
19816	Scarbontiskil?"
19816	See him?"
19816	Shall we get supper, do you s''pose, Laddie, just as soon as we get on the train?
19816	She asked:"Why do you wear rings in your ears?
19816	She came right out in the lantern- light and asked:"Say, Mister Black Bear, are you a real Indian, or just a make- believe?"
19816	So your sister is lost?"
19816	That''s a very easily remembered name, is n''t it?
19816	Their whiskers?"
19816	Then you ask''What was it?''"
19816	WHAT WAS STUCK IN THE MUD?
19816	WHERE ARE THE TWINS?
19816	Were you left behind, too?"
19816	What can it be?"
19816	What could Russ Bunker do?
19816	What did I tell you?"
19816	What do I see?''"
19816	What do they build there, then?"
19816	What do you think of that?"
19816	What had a coal strike to do with their going to school?
19816	What is it?"
19816	What makes whiskers grow, anyway?
19816	What was it?''"
19816	What''s their names?
19816	When daddy paid his bill and tipped the very much subdued waiter, Laddie tugged at his father''s sleeve and whispered:"What is it, Son?"
19816	When did you lock this box?"
19816	When did you lose her?"
19816	When is a box not a box at all?"
19816	Where are you all?"
19816	Where are your horses?"
19816	Where is the house?"
19816	Where''s the key?
19816	Who could help liking him, even if he did shout when he spoke and wear such flashy clothes?
19816	Who has got our coal?"
19816	Who''s chippy?"
19816	Who''s mur-- murderin''him?"
19816	Why ca n''t we have coal to burn?
19816	Why do n''t they take the wash in when it rains so?"
19816	Why do other folks?"
19816	Why do we eat swamps for breakfast?"
19816	Why do we?"
19816	Why does Chief Black Bear paint his face, and-- and----""And take it off with cold cream?"
19816	Why does he?"
19816	Why does he?"
19816	Why does he?"
19816	Why does n''t he have children of his own?"
19816	Why?"
19816	Will it stop and wait when daddy finds out we''re not on it?
19816	Will that give you time, if----?"
19816	Wo n''t she be glad?"
19816	You mean to say one of those bootleggers that sell you reds bad whisky is around?"
19816	You see, the flea is very lively and jumps around a whole lot----""Ca n''t a leopard jump?"
19816	You wo n''t need us for a couple of hours, will you?"
19816	You''member the candy boy on our train?
19816	Your nice new wrist watch?"
19816	_ Must_ you pull my hair off to get me out?"
19816	are you ill?"
19816	burst out Rose, clinging to his hand,"are you going so far away from us all?
19816	cried Laddie suddenly,"how do you s''pose that train hopped over that rock?"
19816	cried Laddie, clapping his hands,"that''s another kind of''red,''is n''t it?
19816	cried Margy suddenly,"you do n''t s''pose the Indians got him, do you?"
19816	ejaculated Vi,"how did you come on that train?
19816	ejaculated the ranchman, greatly amused,"ca n''t that young one ask''em, though?"
19816	exclaimed Russ,"do n''t you suppose these soldiers know_ that_ war is over?"
19816	gasped Rose,"are they_ wild_ Indians?"
19816	have you seen Rose?
19816	murmured Mrs. Bunker,"is there anything out there in the wilderness to hurt her-- by day?"
19816	muttered the ranchman,"does she think that coyote is a dog?"
19816	what are you going to do?
19816	what does he say?"
19816	what is that?"
37761	And Brooke does not do that?
37761	And a good market in England for whatever the Colonials have no particular use for?
37761	And if the dream had never been fulfilled?
37761	And now you mean to finish it if it ruins you?
37761	And now?
37761	And that is all you have cleared?
37761	And then?
37761	And there''s nothing but low- grade ore in the Dayspring? 37761 And turn the lake loose on us with the trench''bout half big enough to take it away?"
37761	And you almost wondered what he did it for?
37761	And you could have framed an excuse for staying away?
37761	And you fancied there were girls in this country with anything worth offering who would be content with such a man as you are?
37761	And you imply that I should have a difficulty in finding them?
37761	And you knew I loved you, though in those days I dare not tell you so? 37761 And you let me stay on?"
37761	And you let up after two years of it?
37761	And,said Barbara,"where is the sword?"
37761	Any more of you coming along? 37761 Anyway, is n''t it a little outside the question?"
37761	Are the rest of the boys stirring yet?
37761	Are we to hold a festival to- night, since you seem to be cooking what should keep us for a week?
37761	Are you going to give every man back the dollars Slocum got from him?
37761	Are you going to stay here to- night?
37761	Are you hurt?
37761	Are you never astonished or put out?
37761	Are you sure it''s wise to tell me so much?
37761	Are you sure that, with six or eight feet of snow on the divide, you could ever get there?
37761	Are you sure you do n''t know?
37761	Because Grant was away?
37761	Bought it on survey, without looking at it?
37761	But does the Dayspring belong to Saxton?
37761	But from where?
37761	But what took you that way?
37761	But where are you going to get them from?
37761	But where is Brooke?
37761	Ca n''t you get him?
37761	Ca n''t you stay a little and talk to us? 37761 Can anything of that kind ever be quite done with?"
37761	Could you have expected one from me?
37761	Could you have stood the boys off?
37761	Could you run this knife down the seam? 37761 Devine,"he said, suggestively,"has been giving you whisky, and it mixed you up a little?
37761	Did n''t we ask him to come when you had Minnie here?
37761	Did n''t you notice whether there were any cartridges in the chamber?
37761	Did we ever attempt to patronize you, and if we had done, is there any reason why you should take the trouble to resent it?
37761	Did you ever strike any real good salt pork in Canada?
37761	Did you see the man in the hall as we passed through?
37761	Do n''t you think the question is a little difficult, or do you expect me to present you with a catalogue of your virtues?
37761	Do you know that I am glad you left the ranch?
37761	Do you know that, absurd as it may sound, I seemed to know that night at Quatomac that I should hold you in my arms again one day?
37761	Do you mean to give me away?
37761	Do you think I need one?
37761	Do you think you are wise in encouraging that man to come here, Grant?
37761	Do you wish the Major to come back for me?
37761	Does one usually renew a chance acquaintance made with a packer in the bush?
37761	Feel sure you can do it? 37761 Feeling kind of low to- night?"
37761	Feeling quite yourself again?
37761	Got no notion where to strike next?
37761	Got them yet?
37761	Had n''t you better get down, sir, or let me lead them across?
37761	Had n''t you better go round and run Jean Frenchy''s hogs out of your citron patch?
37761	Had n''t you better sit down? 37761 Harford,"she said, gently,"are you very vexed with me?"
37761	Harford-- is it really you?
37761	Harrup had n''t been giving you any of the hard cider?
37761	Has it struck you that he might wish to sell it, and be taking precautions for exactly the opposite reason?
37761	Has it struck you that there is a point you have forgotten?
37761	Has somebody been leaving you a fortune?
37761	Has the freighter come through?
37761	Have I got to come back and bring you?
37761	Have I to remind you again that you are not in the English valley?
37761	Have n''t you even the wit to urge the one creditable thing you did?
37761	Have you-- never-- done anything that was wrong?
37761	He recognized you?
37761	He told you the land was nicely cleared ready, and would grow anything?
37761	How could you gain any hold on him over that?
37761	How do you know what is in the Dayspring?
37761	How is that going to help us?
37761	How long did you cut those fuses to burn?
37761	How long is a chance acquaintance warranted in presuming on a favor shown him in this country?
37761	How should I?
37761	How?
37761	I believe they are getting some tea ready, and, in the meanwhile, how are you progressing at the mine?
37761	I guess you have your reasons?
37761	I guess you were too busy to see a friend of yours a little while ago?
37761	I have n''t met Mrs. Cruttenden, have I?
37761	I suppose they will come?
37761	I suppose you could n''t raise eight thousand dollars to buy the mine with?
37761	I suppose your friends will come?
37761	I suppose,he said, resignedly,"you have n''t got a smaller one?"
37761	I suppose,she said, drily,"you do n''t know why Brooke bought those shares, either?"
37761	I think there was a time when you would not have let that stand in the way, but men are seldom very constant, are they?
37761	I was kind of wondering whether she would n''t be stiffer with another log or two in that framing?
37761	I was wondering if I might ask what you thought of this country?
37761	I wonder if she asked you anything about Brooke?
37761	I wonder if the thing we long for most invariably comes when it is no use to us?
37761	I wonder if you know what white samite is?
37761	I wonder,she said, quietly,"why you were so unwilling to meet my sister?
37761	I?
37761	If I had felt inclined to do so, you would scarcely expect me to admit it? 37761 If he did, you would evidently sympathize with him?"
37761	If one may make the inquiry, you came from England?
37761	If the man was as ill as you fancied how could he have got down?
37761	If we are going down, had n''t we better start?
37761	In a river valley in the West Country?
37761	Including mines?
37761	Is Mr. Brooke more peculiar than the rest of you?
37761	Is a man going to lay out dollars on dams and wire- rope slings when he knows that none of them will be any use to him?
37761	Is it a complaint he''s often troubled with?
37761	Is n''t it''bout time you made a move at the Canopus?
37761	Is n''t that a little ambiguous?
37761	Is n''t that a little risky?
37761	Is n''t the question a little outside the mark? 37761 Is n''t the reason obvious?"
37761	Is that likely?
37761	Is that the mail carrier? 37761 Is the poor man the only one who can be honest?"
37761	Is there any reason why I should hide the fact?
37761	Is there anything very extraordinary in that?
37761	It does n''t sound good enough?
37761	It does not affect the point, but are you quite sure he is n''t right now?
37761	It was something special brought you so far on foot?
37761	It''s a little curious-- you do n''t even know who she is?
37761	Miss Heathcote?
37761	Mr. Brooke is crossing with us?
37761	My brother- in- law is naturally not aware of this?
37761	Neither of you changed your minds''bout lighting out of this?
37761	No?
37761	No?
37761	Now, I wonder why?
37761	Now, do you know any reason why we should n''t pool the thing?
37761	Now, what in the name of thunder are you wanting here?
37761	Now,he said,"suppose I was to make you an offer, would you feel inclined to listen to me?"
37761	Of course you tried to raise them?
37761	On the principle that one has to take his chances in this country?
37761	One of the little men?
37761	One''s habits?
37761	Or at the cañon?
37761	Ore worth anything at the smelter?
37761	Quite sure you were awake when you saw those men, Shyanne?
37761	Quite sure?
37761	Say, do you think I could take out the fiddle now and then to keep me company? 37761 Shall I present you?"
37761	Since I am not to be particular, ca n''t you conceive that it would not be pleasant for you if Devine went one better?
37761	Since you insist upon going back to the cañon to- day I wonder if you would take care of them?
37761	So you are not going out on the trail that leads to nowhere in particular, after all?
37761	Some one else has already recorded a new claim on the Canopus?
37761	Still, as Miss Heathcote''s fancies do n''t concern us, would n''t it be more to the purpose if you got me a little to eat?
37761	Still, could it not be done a little more easily?
37761	Still, do you know anybody who would be willing to stretch that rope across?
37761	Still, if the buyer convinced you that your agent knew the land was worth nothing when he sold it him?
37761	Still, is n''t it worth the effort-- not exactly for the dollars?
37761	Still, is there any reason I should n''t make sure of the thing by starting right away?
37761	Still, what in the name of thunder did he want to shoot you for, when he knew you were standing in with me?
37761	Still, you felt it? 37761 Still, you will no doubt make most of those dollars-- indirectly?"
37761	Still,she said,"you must have known a little about the profession?"
37761	Struck anything more encouraging at the mine since you wrote me?
37761	That did n''t suggest anything to you?
37761	That is about all you mean to tell me?
37761	That is presumably why he arranged that I should bring the ore down past the few ranches near the trail at night?
37761	That is, beyond the ash poles-- but how could you know?
37761	That means the folks who gave it you?
37761	That means the work you have in view would scarcely suit a man who was prosperous, or likely to be fastidious?
37761	That was n''t one of Brooke''s men?
37761	The Chopping? 37761 The man from the Dayspring?
37761	The man was your confederate, and you fell out over the booty-- or perhaps you heard me coming and arranged the little scene for my benefit?
37761	The one the rest split on? 37761 The question is, where you''re going to, and what you''re going to do?
37761	The question is-- How am I to manage it? 37761 Then if I wished to ride into the settlement I could scarcely go round that way?"
37761	Then it is admissible to steal, so long as you do it openly and take a personal risk? 37761 Then what I was doing before was not worth while?"
37761	Then what are we going to do?
37761	Then what do you expect from me?
37761	Then whatever is he working at the mine for-- and why did n''t you tell me before?
37761	Then where does the best bacon you get in England come from? 37761 Then why did you not claim recognition?"
37761	Then why do n''t you ask him?
37761	Then why should you make any? 37761 Then you are as sure as ever about the silver?
37761	Then you ca n''t give a record?
37761	Then you disclaim all responsibility for your agent''s doings?
37761	Then you have heard of my good fortune?
37761	Then you would not make the victim any compensation?
37761	Then you, who personify reposefulness, admire force?
37761	Then,he said, very slowly,"it would be useless to expect that anything I could do would ever induce you to once more have any confidence in me?"
37761	There is nothing else?
37761	Those men go up and down with big loads every day, do n''t they?
37761	To have no time for artistic effect is typical of this country, then?
37761	Was it a piece of snow mountain he sold you, or a bottomless swamp?
37761	Was that woman''s story true?
37761	Was the man very amusing?
37761	Was there anything remarkable about the man?
37761	Well,he said again, as though it was the only thing that occurred to him,"what did you do it for?"
37761	Well,he said,"I wonder if you could make any for a train- robber?"
37761	Well,he said,"what do you make of it?
37761	Well,he said,"who would have figured on your taking up that contract?
37761	Well,said Brooke,"I''ll try it, but that brings us to the question, what else do you expect from me?
37761	Well,said one of the others,"what in the name of thunder are you going that way for?"
37761	Well,said the latter, brusquely,"what are we going to do, Wilkins?"
37761	Were you ever almost starved?
37761	What am I to do?
37761	What answer could I make? 37761 What are they doing?
37761	What are we stopping for?
37761	What are you doing here?
37761	What are you going there for?
37761	What are you going to do with the ore I brought you?
37761	What could there be?
37761	What d''you figure on doing with those clubs, boys?
37761	What did he say?
37761	What did you come out for?
37761	What did you do it for, anyway?
37761	What do you want here?
37761	What have I to do with that decision?
37761	What made me sit down like I did?
37761	What made you come at all?
37761	What was it you done back there in England? 37761 What was wrong with the ranch?"
37761	What were you thinking?
37761	Where could she have met him?
37761	Where does he come from? 37761 Where is Saverne swamp?
37761	Where''re you going?
37761	Where''s that horse? 37761 Where''s the man who wants to talk?"
37761	Where''s your hat?
37761	Who are you, anyway?
37761	Who''d you get to do the funeral? 37761 Who''ve you been entertaining?
37761	Whose was the estate in England?
37761	Why did n''t you ask Mr. Brooke to come across?
37761	Why did you stay at the Dayspring through the winter?
37761	Why do n''t you go home now you have enough to live, with a little economy, as you were meant to do?
37761	Why do n''t you shout?
37761	Why do you think that would please me?
37761	Why should I? 37761 Why?"
37761	Why?
37761	Why?
37761	Why?
37761	Why?
37761	Will you go down and ask Mr. Brooke to come here?
37761	Will you put them straight while I find the band they were slipped through?
37761	With minerals?
37761	Without taming it?
37761	Would n''t her attitude on the last occasion serve as guide?
37761	Would you care to try the instrument?
37761	Would you consider yourself warranted in scheming to extort money from any one?
37761	You apparently had n''t an opportunity of calling upon us in Vancouver?
37761	You are Brooke of the Dayspring, are you not?
37761	You are asking me seriously?
37761	You are going back to the ranch?
37761	You are going to put that rope across?
37761	You are putting him a rope across to bring props over with?
37761	You are sure you would care to go down now you have done so?
37761	You are, of course, quite sure?
37761	You assume that I was unwilling?
37761	You believe Allonby''s a crank?
37761	You brought a plan of the dam along?
37761	You ca n''t let me have the men I asked for?
37761	You ca n''t think of one that''s important in particular?
37761	You certainly stopped short of----? 37761 You did n''t expect me?"
37761	You do n''t like the woman?
37761	You do n''t quite understand? 37761 You expect to accomplish it?"
37761	You feel equal to putting the thing through?
37761	You figure that would have contented the man behind you?
37761	You had them?
37761	You have a kind of grievance against Devine?
37761	You have brought the ore and Saxton''s man along?
37761	You have more reasons than the one you gave me for not taking hold?
37761	You have sold it out to English company promoters?
37761	You hear them? 37761 You knew I was here?"
37761	You knew just what this man meant to do?
37761	You knew what Devine meant to offer me?
37761	You know I meant to jump the claim?
37761	You know what you are admitting?
37761	You know what you''ve got to do?
37761	You know where that broken strata has dipped to?
37761	You let her get ahead of you, and tried to make up time by feeding her too hard?
37761	You let up before supper- time?
37761	You mean Miss Heathcote?
37761	You mean helping your brother- in- law to get ahead of the timber- righters?
37761	You mean that Allonby may be?
37761	You mean the music?
37761	You meant to fire at the man?
37761	You see those papers, Bab? 37761 You take kindly to this kind of thing?"
37761	You think there was another man?
37761	You took it?
37761	You went back, and tried to cry off your bargain?
37761	You went through the Dayspring?
37761	You were here when we went by?
37761	You will be sorry to go?
37761	You wish me to take them away?
37761	You would find a knowledge of timber of service in Canada?
37761	You would like to go?
37761	You''ll be Mr. Devine who wrote me about the room and a saddle horse?
37761	You''ll come back by- and- by?
37761	You''re going to leave him them?
37761	You''re quite ready, Sue?
37761	You''re quite sure of that?
37761	You''re quite sure, now?
37761	You, no doubt, had a purpose in telling me as much as you have done?
37761	You?
37761	''Is this how ye treat a man who has come six thousand miles to see his native land?
37761	Absurd to suggest that, is n''t it?
37761	Allonby was quite dead when you got back to him?"
37761	Any of your folks doing well back there as mechanics?"
37761	Are either of you alive?"
37761	Are not Abana and Pharpar better than all the waters of Israel?"
37761	Are the papers valuable?"
37761	Are they all fools who come out from England to buy mines and ranching land?"
37761	Are you going back on your bargain?"
37761	Behind the range, is n''t it?"
37761	Besides, I think you know what kind of man he is?"
37761	Besides, you put a pile of dollars into this place, did n''t you?"
37761	Brooke turned his head and listened, and a woman said,"But how do those little specks of gold get into the rock?
37761	Brooke?"
37761	Brooke?"
37761	But about the timber?"
37761	But how did you come here?"
37761	But when did this quite unwarranted narrative come out, and what shape did it take?"
37761	Ca n''t you even speak?"
37761	Ca n''t you see the thing you are suggesting is quite out of the question?"
37761	Can one make up for a single mistake in one direction by erring continually in the opposite one?
37761	Can you make him out, Barbara?"
37761	Cruttenden''s?"
37761	Devine nodded, and flashed a keen glance at him as he said,"What are you looking at that pool for?"
37761	Devine?"
37761	Devine?"
37761	Do I look as if I could do without anything to eat for a week?"
37761	Do n''t you remember the old house you were so pleased with lower down the valley?
37761	Do n''t you think so?"
37761	Do you know him?"
37761	Do you know who''s stopping him cutting all the props he wants right behind the mine?"
37761	Do you remember exactly what day you went to the Lake on?"
37761	Do you take it?"
37761	Ever think of trying the law against the principal?"
37761	Feel fond of it?"
37761	Had enough?"
37761	Had n''t you better pick the papers up?
37761	Had you no sense of fitness?
37761	Has anybody tried to stop you getting out lumber?"
37761	Has n''t the man come back to you?"
37761	Have n''t you any use for that dollar?"
37761	Have n''t you found out yet that a man can do''most anything that another one can?"
37761	Have n''t you got those stakes ready, boys?"
37761	Have you never heard of an aerial tramway?
37761	He was to bring Miss Hume?"
37761	Held out a month, did n''t you?
37761	How are you getting on about the mine?"
37761	How could I be certain you had remembered me?"
37761	How could I be expected to find any man a fortune?"
37761	How could any one expect me to get it when I could n''t even sleep for fear of that man or some one else coming back for these documents?"
37761	How does the deal strike you?"
37761	How far does your ranch go?"
37761	How long do you figure it will take you?"
37761	How long have you been here?"
37761	How long''ve you been on to that planer?"
37761	How will they set about it?"
37761	I guess he has n''t told you anything?"
37761	I guess you can afford it?"
37761	I guess you have seen a bad lumber jam?"
37761	I guess you know she has quite a pile of dollars?"
37761	I made you an offer, and you have quite decided that it would n''t suit you?"
37761	I suppose you never came across him again?"
37761	I wonder if she knows he will be on board to- day?"
37761	I''ve a ranch that does n''t pay, you see?"
37761	Is it a deal?"
37761	Is n''t it horribly dangerous?"
37761	Is n''t there a certain satisfaction in starting with everything against one?"
37761	It looks very much as if someone has been talking to them?"
37761	It was the Indian Spring folks played it off on you?"
37761	It''s a little difficult to understand how you came to know what I was doing at the Canopus?
37761	It''s rather like splitting hairs, is n''t it?
37761	Know anything about the Dayspring?"
37761	Now I think we were what might be called good comrades in the bush?"
37761	Now is there any special reason you should n''t borrow those dollars from me?"
37761	Now, why''re you not taking the trail after Slocum?
37761	Of what use are dollars to a whisky- tank who will, in all probability, be found mangled at the bottom of the shaft one day?
37761	Quite sure there''s nothing I could do that would keep you?"
37761	Quite sure they''re not more than half- way through?"
37761	Say, ca n''t you strike somebody for a softer job?"
37761	Say, had n''t you better change your mind, and come along with us?"
37761	Shall I talk to the old man when I go home again?
37761	Shall we go in and look through these patterns?
37761	Should n''t it have run all the way across?"
37761	Something you did n''t expect has happened?"
37761	Still, ca n''t you understand what kind of chance you''ve thrown away?
37761	Still, how''d you get your arm in a sling?"
37761	Still, presumably, you do not mean to do it out of pure good- nature?"
37761	Still, though the latter is certainly pretty, what is keeping-- you-- in it now?"
37761	Still, what put the fancy that I might disregard it into your head?"
37761	Still, you''d have had more than that when you came in?"
37761	Surely-- you-- do not feel capable of inventing any for a claim- jumper?"
37761	That appears sufficient?"
37761	That girl with the big eyes has been putting notions into you?"
37761	That must have been horrid-- and what did it feel like?"
37761	That''s fixed?
37761	That''s quite straight, is n''t it?"
37761	That''s quite straight?"
37761	The prediction was evidently warranted, for another voice broke in,"What makes those little trucks run down the rope?
37761	The question is-- Are you going to take my offer?"
37761	The question is-- Can you do nothing better still?
37761	The question is-- What about the mine?
37761	Then she said, quietly,"So you are going away?"
37761	They''re scarcely likely to be timber- righters?"
37761	Was it a spy''s part only, or were you to be a traitor, too?"
37761	Was it very dreadful?
37761	Was n''t it a little inconsequent?"
37761	We will suppose that somebody had robbed me----""Then one who has been robbed may steal?"
37761	Well, are you open to consider my offer?"
37761	Well, suppose I could give you a chance of getting those dollars back?"
37761	Well, you''re not coming?"
37761	What are you at up here in the bush?"
37761	What brought you, anyway?"
37761	What comes next?
37761	What do you think of it?"
37761	What do you want crawling round our claim, anyway?"
37761	What explanation would she make to her sister, or the man, if-- and the doubt was horrible-- he was, indeed, still capable of receiving it?
37761	What has all this to do with the hollow the snow- slide made in the range?"
37761	What has brought you into the bush?
37761	What have you been at?"
37761	What in the name of thunder are you going to do?"
37761	What in the name of thunder do you want to build his slingway for?"
37761	What in the name of thunder made you let Devine have them back for?"
37761	What is he?"
37761	What is that to you?"
37761	What is the name of the man Saxton wishes to sell the mine to?"
37761	What is your figure?"
37761	What made you take the risk?"
37761	What was it Reggie Ferris did?"
37761	What was it he did before he left the line regiment?
37761	What were you at before that?"
37761	What would you do?"
37761	What''d you put up that wire sling for?
37761	What''ve you come round here for, anyway?"
37761	Whatever have you been doing?"
37761	When are you going?"
37761	When did Mr. Brooke buy that stock?"
37761	Where has he gone?"
37761	Where is he now?"
37761	Where''re you going to?"
37761	Where''re you going to?"
37761	Where''s John Collier?
37761	Who else could it be?"
37761	Who gave you the plan of it?"
37761	Who has been talking to them?"
37761	Who is he?"
37761	Who''s coming in with me?"
37761	Why did you call him a fool?"
37761	Why do n''t you go back again?"
37761	Why should he?"
37761	Why would n''t you take the dollars you needed when Mr. Devine was perfectly willing to lend them to you?"
37761	Will it be an hour or more before you make it clear how that concerns anybody?"
37761	Will you pour it out, Barbara?"
37761	Would you be content with that?"
37761	Would you feel like doing it to- day?
37761	Would you mind tying my handkerchief tightly round it where I''ve laid my finger?"
37761	You are suggesting community of interest?
37761	You are working at the Tomlinson mill?"
37761	You came in from the Dayspring-- over the divide?
37761	You can forget all that has gone before, and once more try to believe in me?"
37761	You carried him across the range when he was too played out to walk, did n''t you?"
37761	You did n''t recognize him, Katty?"
37761	You do n''t condemn any one for a single slip in your country, Miss Heathcote?"
37761	You do n''t expect me to keep you after that?"
37761	You do n''t figure on taking all that truck along with you?"
37761	You do n''t know that was merely a part of the rest?"
37761	You do not seem quite so sure that the meeting with her will afford you any pleasure?"
37761	You expect to get the rope across the cañon very shortly?"
37761	You feel reasonably sure we''re going to strike ore that will pay for the crushing at the end of that adit?"
37761	You have been finding out the rest of it since you met her at the ranch?
37761	You have left the ranch?"
37761	You have n''t anything like that at those works you''re a director of, Shafton?"
37761	You have n''t proved the vein?"
37761	You know how to rough down redwood logs and blow out rocks?"
37761	You remember that ride?"
37761	You see what that brings us to?
37761	You were dismounted at the time?"
37761	You will presumably take that route some day?"
37761	You would care to stay here always?"
37761	You would n''t expect me to pick the lock of his safe, presumably?"
37761	You''re going in to the settlement?"
37761	You''re going?
37761	You''re not exactly struck on Devine?"
37761	Your arm hurts?"
19371	Ai n''t it? 19371 Ai n''t''knowin''''my business?
19371	An''--you''ll bring her along with you?
19371	An''Jeff-- didn''t know till-- now?
19371	An''what about Lightfoot?
19371	An''who antied the price?
19371	An''you''re sendin''for him?
19371	And she is still her father''s daughter?
19371	And the dollars? 19371 And the other boys?"
19371	And the stores, Jeff?
19371	And then?
19371	And they''re following up the trail?
19371	And they''re out on the trail-- right now?
19371	And what do I owe to you? 19371 And you do n''t know who-- accepted it?"
19371	And you figure after giving things time to get forgotten they''ve gathered up a crowd of toughs and started in on this district?
19371	And you''ll tell me your decision-- now?
19371	And-- you are n''t mad with me for knowing? 19371 Another raid?"
19371	Are n''t you going to finish yours?
19371	Are you scared?
19371	Been times around here, ai n''t ther''?
19371	Blood money?
19371	Bob,she cried at last, all restraint completely giving way,"do you know what I could do just now more willingly than anything else in the world?
19371	But ca n''t you get back to it? 19371 But what about-- Ronald?"
19371	But what if it can be called a fortune, Effie?
19371	But why talk? 19371 But you-- a woman?
19371	But you-- you alone were following on the tracks of four tough strangers?
19371	Ca n''t you tell me-- now? 19371 Can I come along up-- later?
19371	Can we do it-- sure?
19371	Can you help me up?
19371	Chore boy?
19371	Convinced''em?
19371	Crook?
19371	Curious? 19371 D''you mind?"
19371	D''you think you could duplicate it then?
19371	Daddy, Daddy, he will-- he will be happy, wo n''t he?
19371	Did you have mercy? 19371 Did you see anybody?
19371	Do I?
19371	Do you guess he ken talk if he feels that way?
19371	Do you know what she''s won? 19371 Do you know what you''re doing?
19371	Do you need me to give it you all again?
19371	Do you think-- he''d-- he''d have me be a-- a bridesmaid? 19371 Do?"
19371	Does Jeff know?
19371	Does it? 19371 Done me no wrong?"
19371	Done?
19371	Feelin''beat, eh?
19371	Five hundred? 19371 Food on, Nan?"
19371	Gee,he exclaimed,"wher''you get that dandy rig?"
19371	Got any lager?
19371	Have n''t I?
19371	He ai n''t around?
19371	He''s gone to Spruce Crossing-- to Sikkem?
19371	How can we give it him?
19371	How can you talk that way?
19371	How d''you know that?
19371	How d''you know?
19371	How do they call you then?
19371	How''d you fancy looking after my horses and saddle and things? 19371 How''s that goin''to fix the Lightfoot crowd?"
19371	How-- then?
19371	How?
19371	How?
19371	How?
19371	How?
19371	How?
19371	How?
19371	I allow we owe her a heap of thanks, eh, Bud?
19371	I do n''t seem to feel I''ve ever had such a time, or ever will again, unless----"Unless?
19371	I do think she''s real beautiful, do n''t you?
19371	I never---- Say, does Nan know you were-- raised here?
19371	I s''pose there is hell lying around her heart?
19371	I? 19371 Ice?"
19371	Is he?
19371	Is it a matter of importance?
19371	Is it? 19371 Is she-- hurt?"
19371	Is that the reason of the dispute?
19371	Is there any need-- now?
19371	It''s a dandy bunch, Bob, eh?
19371	It''s not girls only who need a mirror, when a man is good to look at, Daddy, is it? 19371 It''s pretty bad?"
19371	It''s tough on top of my home- coming, eh, Nan? 19371 It''s-- it''s not very brave, is it?
19371	Jack Rabbit?
19371	Jeff comin''up?
19371	Just when? 19371 Kind o''seems in a hurry, do n''t he?"
19371	Know''d?
19371	Know''em?
19371	Lucky? 19371 May I know, dear?"
19371	Me? 19371 Mostly?"
19371	My life?
19371	My-- gown?
19371	Nan?
19371	No trouble, Lal?
19371	No?
19371	None? 19371 Nothin''_ has_ happened?"
19371	Now?
19371	Of sorts? 19371 Orrville?"
19371	Our prize stock?
19371	Peters? 19371 Place?
19371	Quite a place, eh?
19371	Rye?
19371	Say, Dan, how old are you? 19371 Say, I guess I have n''t given up a thing-- for you, eh?
19371	Say, Jeff, wo n''t you go back? 19371 Say, Jeff,"the girl went on gently, a moment later,"are n''t you acting a teeny bit crazy over this?
19371	Say, Mr. Masters, guess you ai n''t never tried any stunt like raisin''kebbiges on a hog ranch? 19371 Say, ai n''t we never to get food a feller ken eat?"
19371	Say, did Jeff tell you?
19371	Say, kind o''fergotten-- ain''t yer?
19371	Say, maybe you''d feel like handin''me the reason you would n''t set the law on to that-- woman?
19371	Say, when d''you quit Orrville way?
19371	Say, would n''t it be a real circus if a big, strong man had to act the same as us poor women? 19371 Say, you Daddy of mine,"she said, almost boisterously,"have n''t you work to be done, the same as I have?
19371	Say,he cried, in fiercely vibrant tones,"d''you know what it is I got in my head?
19371	Say-- a touch of the north wind around, Nan, eh?
19371	See them? 19371 Serious as all that?"
19371	Shall we----?
19371	Sikkem? 19371 Smoke?"
19371	So you netted the ten thousand?
19371	So?
19371	Some for me?
19371	Some one betrayed''em-- for ten thousand dollars?
19371	Suppose? 19371 Terrible?
19371	That all?
19371	That one of your boys-- coming in? 19371 That so?"
19371	That you, Dad?
19371	The Highland bull?
19371	The Lightfoot gang?
19371	The Shorthorn yearlings, Lal?
19371	The trouble? 19371 The_ Calthorpe Times_, is n''t it?"
19371	Then how in hell d''you know it all? 19371 Then what did you send that youngster in for with mouthful of durned lies?"
19371	Times? 19371 Trouble?"
19371	Troubles?
19371	Two? 19371 Wal?"
19371	Was there ever such a simple, simple soul? 19371 Was you?"
19371	We?
19371	Well?
19371	Well?
19371	Well?
19371	Well?
19371	What about me, Ju?
19371	What are they goin''to do?
19371	What d''you mean, Effie?
19371	What d''you mean?
19371	What did Evie do?
19371	What happened-- after-- that? 19371 What in the nature o''blamed things made me act that way?"
19371	What is he-- to you?
19371	What is it?
19371	What is it?
19371	What more? 19371 What''s amiss, Nan?"
19371	What''s brought you in?
19371	What''s doing?
19371	What''s the play at-- Orrville?
19371	What''s the use anyway?
19371	What''s the use of a few dollars? 19371 What''s your name, boy?"
19371	What-- happened-- after-- Nan? 19371 What-- who were they-- then?"
19371	When are you starting?
19371	When did he send it?
19371	Wher''is she?
19371	Wher''is she?
19371	Wher''s Nan?
19371	Wher''s the red willow? 19371 Wher''s the use in it anyway?"
19371	Where are the other boys?
19371	Where is he?
19371	Where-- where did this all happen?
19371	Who can stop me? 19371 Who is it wasting my time?
19371	Who is she? 19371 Who is this Peters, anyway?"
19371	Who sent it?
19371	Who sent this? 19371 Who''s to say?"
19371	Who-- what?
19371	Who? 19371 Who?
19371	Who?
19371	Why did you come around here-- to- night?
19371	Why for should I?
19371	Why not know her better? 19371 Why not leave it at the Garden of Eden?"
19371	Why not?
19371	Why not?
19371	Why not?
19371	Why, you met her, sure?
19371	Why-- why is it too late?
19371	Why?
19371	Will I tell you of them? 19371 Will you listen, Bob?
19371	Will you read that-- at once?
19371	Will you stop and eat with us?
19371	Will you tell me all you know of-- this woman?
19371	Will you-- help me?
19371	Wo n''t you open it?
19371	Wot youngster? 19371 Wot''s the lies?"
19371	Wot''s wrong?
19371	Would she? 19371 Yes, Jeff?"
19371	Yes, Nan?
19371	You ai n''t makin''no complaint to the boss, ma''am? 19371 You coming along?"
19371	You have come back, Jeff?
19371	You ken hear?
19371	You mean the rustlers?
19371	You mean the-- rustlers?
19371	You run this shanty?
19371	You were following my tracks?
19371	You wo n''t tell him wot I said, ma''am?
19371	You''d have me go back to her?
19371	You''re Mrs. Masters, ma''am?
19371	You''re at the call of anybody around to settle disputes?
19371	You''re coming back with me, Bob?
19371	You''re goin''back home?
19371	You''re not going down there with them?
19371	You''re-- packing?
19371	You''ve got news of them?
19371	You, Sikkem? 19371 You-- are not going?"
19371	You-- still refuse-- to countenance it?
19371	You-- you wo n''t leave me?
19371	You_ must_ go-- I s''pose?
19371	Ai n''t it a pictur''?
19371	And Jeff?
19371	And do they matter anyway?
19371	And had she not already been confidentially warned that Jeff was to be the forthcoming year''s president?
19371	And if you''ve got to go under, why, I guess it''s best done with a smile, eh?"
19371	And rustlers?
19371	And that''s just all we can ask, is n''t it?"
19371	And then-- yes, just a teeny tiny touch of powder on his nose?
19371	And then?
19371	And then?"
19371	And what could the urgency be at such an hour?
19371	And when it''s paid, do you shout about it?
19371	And you''ll-- promise?"
19371	And-- what then?
19371	Are these people your friends?
19371	Are you comin''along?
19371	Are you goin''to help, Jeff?"
19371	Bud helped himself, and in response to Ju''s"Your friend?"
19371	But love?
19371	But was it?
19371	But we really need to answer, do n''t we?
19371	But we''re goin''to beat the game-- sure, eh?
19371	But why not come around to the ranch and see things?
19371	But you are-- better?
19371	But---- Was he one of the original Orrville gang, all unsuspected, or, at least, if not unsuspected,_ unknown_ to be?
19371	But----""Then the trouble----?"
19371	Ca n''t you see?
19371	Can you beat it?
19371	Can you beat it?
19371	Could she permit it?
19371	Could there be any mistaking those cold tones, that ruthless decision?
19371	D''you guess Jeff would let me get his house ready for-- his wife?"
19371	D''you know how?"
19371	D''you make it that way?"
19371	Dared she go to him?
19371	Dared she risk what lay beyond?
19371	Did he mind?
19371	Did she get it?
19371	Did she not know it all?
19371	Did that mean raiding her husband''s stock and endeavoring so to ruin the Obar?
19371	Do I get it?
19371	Do you get that, dear?
19371	Do you get that?"
19371	Do you know how I feel?
19371	Do you know what I mean?
19371	Do you know what that reward means to you-- to us?
19371	Do you remember them, my Daddy?
19371	Do you think I do n''t love him?
19371	Do you think I''m not ready to dare for him-- anything?
19371	Do you, Nan?"
19371	Do-- do you think he''ll like it all?"
19371	Does mine give me no right?
19371	Does the gang down Orrville way need to know who it was they forgot to hand the name of Judas to when he was christened?
19371	Dreadful?"
19371	Eh, Bob?
19371	Eh?"
19371	Four fellers?
19371	Get me?
19371	Get me?"
19371	Git me?
19371	Gives''em visions of hangin''-bees, an''a sort o''firework display with guns an''things, an''when they hatched out, what''s the result?
19371	Go back to her feeling as I do?"
19371	Go?
19371	Had he not been at it himself since the first streak of dawn?
19371	Had he not seen for himself how Jeff''s fancy had been caught?
19371	Had he not watched the progress of events throughout the week?
19371	Had she not lived it all before?
19371	Had the heat of the summer sun wrought the mischief?
19371	Had the hut itself supplied the trouble?
19371	He surely would, daddy dear, would n''t he?
19371	Her father?
19371	Hers?
19371	Home?
19371	Honest?
19371	How can I say?"
19371	How could prosperity have maintained under the conditions he would have imposed?
19371	How could you be expected to see a man''s point of view?"
19371	How did you happen to git around?
19371	How do you know I''m not out to beat you?
19371	How far away?"
19371	How had it been started?
19371	How long would they remain so?
19371	How much was it, Daddy?"
19371	How much?"
19371	How?"
19371	I do n''t like him, Miss, an''---- Say, how did them rustlers know''bout them calves?
19371	I do n''t need to say a word about her value, eh?
19371	I mean just look after them for me, and nothing else?"
19371	I wonder why you were scared?
19371	I---- May I come along-- after I get through?"
19371	I----""Mercy?
19371	If I get shot up does my wife get it?
19371	If I get shot up the money''ll be paid to my wife?
19371	If he sent it, what more likely than that he was one of the gang of rustlers operating here?
19371	If he were one of the Orrville gang, what was more likely than that he should have sent that threat?
19371	If he were one of them, then what added significance did it give threat?
19371	If the open pine woods continued she might, but-- what lay beyond?
19371	If you''d got this gang, with him in it?
19371	Is Lightfoot your master?"
19371	It ai n''t friendly not to put folks wise, is it?
19371	It''s not fair to me-- to you-- to your little Nan----""What''s not fair to Nan?"
19371	It''s sort of like the Indian summer, is n''t it?
19371	Jeff in danger?
19371	Jeff?
19371	Jest passin''thro''?"
19371	Just a bunch of rustlers----""Cattle thieves?"
19371	Know it?
19371	Makes you think, do n''t it?
19371	McFarlane?"
19371	Meanwhiles----""Yes?"
19371	Mebbe he''s traveling around incog.--ain''t that the word?"
19371	Mebbe you''ve heard all the play?"
19371	Men were of---- What was that?
19371	Mercy?"
19371	Might there not then be hope in the dim future?
19371	Mighty tough- looking citizens, an''strangers?"
19371	Morals?
19371	Mrs. Van Blooren?"
19371	Nan remembered the absurdity of her reply now with something very like panic:"Who-- what-- were you thinking of then?"
19371	Nasty, mean, hateful shadows lurking, full of----""Hell for some one, eh?"
19371	Nothing?
19371	Orrville?
19371	Pity, ai n''t it?"
19371	Presently he went on:"Makes you feel A''mighty God''s a pretty big feller, do n''t it?
19371	Price?
19371	Price?
19371	Queer?
19371	Rob her of the man she loved?
19371	Say, Evie, you wo n''t let go of things, will you?
19371	Say, I''ll be paid on the nail when the job''s done?
19371	Say, ca n''t you see it all?
19371	Say, d''you make it these things are, or is it jest something He sets in us makes us see''em that way?
19371	Say, daddy, shall-- shall I talk?"
19371	Say, ever hear tell of a time when ther''wa''an''t some feller waiting ready to grab on to ten thousand dollars?
19371	Say, what boys you got out there?"
19371	Say, who''d''a''thought it?"
19371	Say----""How d''you know anything that affects you here, Daddy?"
19371	Say----""Well?"
19371	Say----""What''s gone?"
19371	Say----""Yes?"
19371	See?
19371	See?
19371	See?"
19371	Shall I see?"
19371	Shall I stop right here, or-- get back to home?"
19371	So you boys here got in on''em?"
19371	Sort of makes you think, too, do n''t it?
19371	Sort of queer name, ai n''t it?
19371	Sure, sure, she''ll make him happy?
19371	Sure?"
19371	That so?"
19371	That so?"
19371	The Lightfoot gang, eh?
19371	The future?
19371	The price?
19371	The question once more flashed through his brain-- what-- what was the use of it all?
19371	Their purpose looked to be to ruin the Obar, and then-- what then?
19371	Then after a pause he added:"You did n''t send him along?
19371	Then he went on with enthusiasm:"Say, would n''t it be bully to think of?
19371	Then where was the justice of it?
19371	Then, was he not on the rising wave which must ever appeal to the maturer mind of a widow, however young?
19371	They went by the name of Whitstone, but their real name, by them papers, was Van Blooren----""What name?"
19371	Twenty?"
19371	Was it a calculated display, or was it the outlet for an emotion altogether too strong for the man''s restraint?
19371	Was it possible in all that unquestioned success there had been no delight, no real enjoyment at all?
19371	Was it the work of an incendiary?
19371	Was not the completeness of her disaster contained in those lines?
19371	Was she no longer standing upon that brink?
19371	Was she not bitterly aware that her own home marked the fringe of the cattle world in this direction?
19371	Was there ever a nicer looking suit for men than evening clothes?
19371	Was there ever such a bunch of simple trusting folly as is rolled up in that six feet three of good- hearted honesty?
19371	Was there ever such a feller looking for sharps to play him?
19371	Was there one merciful, womanly emotion in your cruel, selfish heart when you sent those men, that man to his death for ten thousand filthy dollars?
19371	We can stand now, ca n''t we?
19371	Were there ever such things?
19371	What could she do with the secret?
19371	What could she do-- a woman?
19371	What d''you take me for-- a rustler?"
19371	What do you say?"
19371	What estimate this big man-- and Bob knew him to be a big man-- would have of him when he had told his news and claimed the-- blood money?
19371	What happened?
19371	What if he''d been one of this gang?
19371	What in hell ken we do?"
19371	What in hell''s brought you around now?
19371	What is her first name, and the first name of her-- husband?"
19371	What more are you asking me?"
19371	What must be done?
19371	What of mine?
19371	What of the fire?
19371	What right had any ten thousand dollars to drift into any unknown pocket?
19371	What they done your way?"
19371	What was his price?
19371	What was it?
19371	What was the minute you started to make yourself-- pretty?"
19371	What was the use----?
19371	What was there to fear?
19371	What were they doing down there?
19371	What would be the result upon such a nature as this man''s when-- he knew?
19371	What would be their end?
19371	What''s he done, Jeff?"
19371	What''s your name?
19371	What''s your name?
19371	What''ud you have?
19371	What, what had the coming of the man for her?
19371	What-- lay beyond?
19371	When did you get it?
19371	When''re you coming along to-- home?"
19371	Where lay the use, the purpose in it all?
19371	Where was all the result of her years of hard calculation?
19371	Where was that machine upon which she had gazed with so much confident pride?
19371	Where were these?
19371	Where''s the difference?
19371	Where''s yours?"
19371	Wherein then should be discovered its charms?
19371	Whither were those men riding?
19371	Whither?
19371	Whitstone, ai n''t it?
19371	Who did?"
19371	Who is going to harm Jeff?"
19371	Who''s the boy who brought in word?"
19371	Who, he wondered, was the present victim, and what was the extent of the raid?
19371	Who-- who were they?
19371	Who?
19371	Whose?
19371	Why all this now?"
19371	Why are you like that?"
19371	Why did they not surround the bluff?
19371	Why had his first thoughts on returning life been of these-- things?
19371	Why should he be forced to observance of the laws of justice, or-- duty toward a woman who----?
19371	Why should she not admit it?
19371	Why should she?
19371	Why should there ever be a farewell between them?
19371	Why should this be a farewell?
19371	Why, if that sort of thing became the general practice,"how,"he asked himself,"was an honest trader to live?"
19371	Why, she wondered in sudden horror, had she not told of this thing before?
19371	Why, when there''s a hundred and one things to do around this wretched shanty?
19371	Why-- why had it affected him last night?
19371	Why?
19371	Why?
19371	Why?"
19371	Will you give me your word, sir?
19371	Will you go along-- and get it?"
19371	Will you listen to me while I tell you all that''s been churning around in my head ever since you told me of that reward?
19371	Will you-- will you go back to her-- to- morrow, Jeff?"
19371	Wine color, eh?
19371	Wo n''t you stick it for me?"
19371	Wo n''t you try, for-- my sake?"
19371	Wo n''t you?"
19371	Wonder what sort of mush he kept in his thinking depot?
19371	Would Dug McFarlane come?
19371	Would I?
19371	Would he listen?
19371	Would he-- speak?
19371	Would it sort of help him any?"
19371	Would she accept it?
19371	Would she ever forget?
19371	Would she get those ten thousand dollars, which appeared so vast a sum to eyes only accustomed to dwelling upon cents?
19371	Would they open again?
19371	Would they punish her that way?
19371	Would they succeed in capturing this Lightfoot gang?
19371	Would you act that way by a mother, or-- or a sister?
19371	Would you''ve let him go and hanged the others?
19371	You are n''t mad with Jeff for me knowing?
19371	You believe that, do n''t you?
19371	You convinced them?"
19371	You do believe that, do n''t you?
19371	You do n''t get it?
19371	You do n''t know him?
19371	You do n''t think there was anything else, do you?
19371	You got my papers, an''--wal, how d''you guess I stand?"
19371	You knew of them?"
19371	You mean you''re goin''to come along an''help find-- Ronny?"
19371	You mean----?"
19371	You''re going to help me, dear, are n''t you?
19371	You''ve never seen him?
19371	You-- you wo n''t ever let me lose it, will you?"
19371	You?
19371	You?"
19371	Your word of honor?"
29694	''Cause why?
29694	A gold trail?
29694	A sad angel, señor,she said with a sigh,"but why should I not help you to your wish since you have guarded me well?
29694	A warning of what?
29694	Ah,he murmured meaningly,"then this strange señor also has the knowing of this Indian gold?
29694	All right, but if they ask questions?
29694	All those women are silent as death, but that scream?
29694	Also it may be a safe house for a maiden, who knows? 29694 Am I?"
29694	Amigo,he said jovially,"you played me a trick and took the woman, but what the devil is that to hold a grudge for?
29694	And I? 29694 And a prisoner because of you?"
29694	And have arrived at plans? 29694 And her name?"
29694	And it was done without a fight?
29694	And that''s the neighbor friend Conrad takes a run down south to see occasionally?
29694	And that?
29694	And that?
29694	And the Indians?
29694	And the guns and ammunition,--he also surrenders them?
29694	And this Marto Cavayso did that?
29694	And this?
29694	And what happened?
29694	And where is this man Rhodes to be found?
29694	And why not? 29694 And you ran away?"
29694	And you''re broke?
29694	And your accident?
29694	And-- this?
29694	And-- who had absolving and burial of him?
29694	Are n''t you the new Americano from California, for the La Partida rancho?
29694	Are you going to laugh at that, too?
29694	Are you in deep on this prospect plan?
29694	Are you really going it blind, trailing with Cap into the Painted Hills after that fascinating gold legend?
29694	Arroya Maldioso?
29694	Attraction? 29694 Beat me again, have you?"
29694	Belong in the valley, Captain?
29694	Belong? 29694 Bill?"
29694	Billie?
29694	Bub, do you know where we are?
29694	But he''s thoroughbred, and he can stand it twelve hours more if I can, ca n''t you, old pal?
29694	But me? 29694 But shucks!--with all the refugees we''re feeding across the line where''s the obstacle to this one?"
29694	But that scream?
29694	But the trap, señora?
29694	But the writing? 29694 But these people?"
29694	But this one at Soledad?
29694	But to get back to the man in the cell over there and the ammunition, may I ask if he confided to you anything of that place of storage? 29694 But what of the tale of Diego, said in the American way?"
29694	But what think you would be the price for a woman of emerald eyes and white skin carried up from the south under chains, and a lock to the chain?
29694	But whence comes wealth to you in a land where there is no longer wealth for anyone?
29694	But who did you say your girl was?
29694	But your sympathy is with those women in slavery there in the south, and not with the evil friend of José Perez?
29694	But, my General, he asks----"Who is he to ask? 29694 Camp cook?"
29694	Can that be, O friend?
29694	Can you doubt, señor? 29694 Cause why?"
29694	Cinderella, why have you hid the door in the wall from me?
29694	Conrad, eh?
29694	Could that mean there is yet any use left in the world for me?
29694	Did I not tell you she had the heart of a boy? 29694 Did I not tell you?
29694	Did Rotil send you?
29694	Did n''t you suppose I might have my time shortened for good behavior?
29694	Did you break jail?
29694	Did you feel yourself under witchcraft-- once more?
29694	Did you meet him down there?
29694	Did you see her?
29694	Did you think, did you make Papa Philip think, that I was eloping like this?
29694	Diego, said in the American way?
29694	Do they make choice of some wise woman, to be speaker for the others? 29694 Do you know of this thing?"
29694	Does he find the best mules with packs already on their backs in the cañons?
29694	Does your head catch all of that, señor? 29694 From Tennessee?"
29694	Glad to,agreed Kit,"but what of this guard duty?"
29694	Good men enough, but with their cartridges doctored what could they do? 29694 Got a cup that I can take my share first?"
29694	Has Soledad grown a place for comradeship?
29694	Has he bewitched you also that you have so little interest in a mine of gold in anyone of the arroyas of your land?
29694	Has the Señor Don José Perez received my message for conference?
29694	Have I not herded all of them from over the mesa at your order? 29694 Have n''t you got it_ yet_?"
29694	Have you any idea of a trap for him?
29694	Have you ever heard that Marto Cavayso was once a lieutenant of General Rotil?
29694	Have you?
29694	He has there on his horse all the things for Tio Miguel, but Miguel not coming, and I wonder who goes? 29694 He is a good man?"
29694	He tells you that?
29694	He?
29694	How a quicksand and no water?
29694	How could that be?
29694	How is it that poor little one weeps now when you are returned, and not at other times?
29694	How is there anything to offer in Sonora when Perez here has sent the guns south?
29694	How makes itself that I must know all the people in the world before I was here on earth?
29694	How many head of stock think you still ranges Mesa Blanca?
29694	How shall I answer that?
29694	How so?
29694	Howdy, señorita?
29694	I did n''t fool you much when I called that gang''vaqueros,''did I?
29694	I-- I do n''t suppose he even remembers that I was,she remarked, and then after a silence,"or-- or even mentioned-- us?"
29694	I? 29694 If a mountain of gold should be uncovered at Soledad, of what difference to me?
29694	In these days?
29694	Is he coming down here to the corrals?
29694	Is he then an American?
29694	Is it a victorious battle, for him?
29694	Is it a wonder I am cold with the fear when she is away from my eyes? 29694 Is it not true you met the lady first at Mesa Blanca?"
29694	Is that a bribe?
29694	Is that some Mexican joke?
29694	Is that the tale he tells? 29694 Is there not some little time to think and consider?"
29694	Is there still water to be found in the well here? 29694 Is your heart turned stone that you lift no hand, or speak no word for the soul of a mortal?"
29694	Isidro, what is it they want to do with him?
29694	It is then a bandit he is called in the words of the American newspaper?
29694	It is you who sent messenger to save an unhappy one you did not know? 29694 It is, you say, not victorious for Ramon Rotil, that-- bandit?"
29694	It says, señora,hesitated Billie,"that he is hid in the hills, and----""That we know,"stated Doña Jocasta,"what other thing?"
29694	It was as easy as_ that_,--yet no one found it?
29694	It will be rough, yet necessary, and if it could appear suicide, eh? 29694 It will hold for Buntin''and the mules, but what of Pardner?"
29694	Jocasta, eh? 29694 José Perez,--who else?"
29694	Know it? 29694 Know it?
29694	Know you not that the door of my sleeping room is bolted each night, and unbolted at dawn? 29694 Let Sheba run your camp, and run it to hell, will you?"
29694	Linguistics?
29694	Look at this, will you?
29694	Look who''s here?
29694	May I now go?
29694	May it also be that we can catch the man?
29694	Me he does not know, Don José is of Soledad and is of your tallness, so----"Know you the man who came for water at the cañon well?
29694	Me? 29694 Me?
29694	Meaning me?
29694	Mesa Blanca? 29694 My grandmother has all for your comfort, señora,"he said,"will it please you to descend?"
29694	My name''s Pike, and you''re the new man from California, hey? 29694 Nor-- nor sorry, I reckon?"
29694	North is the safer place for women alone, and you-- did you not say that on Granados there were friends?
29694	Not an Indian woman?
29694	Not if you were our girl, would she, Pardner?
29694	Now what has that_ muchacho_ on his mind that he makes that sort of get- away after nothing and no pursuer in sight? 29694 Now whose trick is it to make me a fool?
29694	Now, is there any practical thing I can do to add to your comfort here? 29694 Of what use to risk the life of a courier for no purpose?
29694	Offer?
29694	Oh, that?
29694	Oh, you are, are you?
29694	Only once over the trail, once?
29694	Or have you some inside trail blazed for yourself? 29694 Other times you have been here?"
29694	Others, señor?
29694	Permission?
29694	Playing saloon- keeper with only the gophers for customers?
29694	Queer,muttered Rhodes,"did you catch that second chap signal to the gun man in the cactus?
29694	Ramon Rotil did that?
29694	Say, Kit, do n''t you reckon it''s time for Billie to answer my letter? 29694 Say, there''s a telephone somewhere down here at the works, connecting with the hacienda, is n''t there?"
29694	See you anything? 29694 See you not that the cloud in the sky is like a bird,--a dark angry bird?
29694	Seen any stragglers of cattle left behind?
29694	Serf? 29694 Señora, if you saw him ride side by side with Rotil, drinking from the same cup in the desert, would you not also think it?"
29694	Shall I go to the German?
29694	Shall I tell you, pious Father, how safe she is? 29694 She has been known as Señora Jocasta Perez, is it not so?"
29694	Shirk business? 29694 Slave traders?"
29694	So General Rotil makes a divide of the cattle,--of Whitely''s cattle? 29694 So that was the''trap''that Marto raved and stormed to get back to?"
29694	So that''s the reason? 29694 So you got out of the saddle to spy?
29694	So, Conrad was in this plot against you?
29694	So? 29694 So?
29694	So? 29694 So?
29694	So?
29694	Sorry for him?
29694	Still holding your job, or asking for your time?
29694	Sure they could, but what''s the object? 29694 Sure; and who is the Federal politician?
29694	Talking,--about what?
29694	That''s the way you mean to get even for the''seventh daughter''guess is it? 29694 The Deliverer says will you graciously come?"
29694	The Indians no doubt told you the reason the jail was needed?
29694	The bowls of food will make that dirty in one eating, and then what? 29694 The call of Miguel?
29694	The red gold?
29694	The señora?
29694	Their gods?
29694	Then he-- Ramon----?
29694	Then, what better way to hide Doña Jocasta than to place her among Indian women who come in a band for that task? 29694 There''s something-- something-- Do you know, you damned young crane, that I can have my men shoot you against the wall out there if you lie to me?"
29694	They tell me, señor, that you were about to take as bride a lovely lady?
29694	They?
29694	This is of a quickness, but who dare say it is not an act for the blessing of God?
29694	Three mules, eh? 29694 Tomas Herrara and Chico Domingo?"
29694	Tomorrow, can he go?
29694	True, Padre, who can say?
29694	Well, little sister,he said,"what''s on your mind?"
29694	Well, why ca n''t you give the telegram to me? 29694 Well?"
29694	What about you?
29694	What day, Tula?
29694	What did I tell you right here last night?
29694	What did I tell you? 29694 What did Ramon Rotil ever do for you that you fret like a chained coyote because his enemies are strong?"
29694	What do you find?
29694	What does he say,--the old señor?
29694	What does it say,--Soledad?
29694	What does she look like?
29694	What else is there to say?
29694	What happened?
29694	What have you here?
29694	What if I do? 29694 What in time do you reckon became of all the water that used to fill these dry gullies?"
29694	What is Cajame?
29694	What is it they say out there?
29694	What is it, Tula?
29694	What is your office to me?
29694	What kind of things?
29694	What makes the evil?
29694	What nettle stings you, boy?
29694	What new thing has given you fear?
29694	What saint''s day is this?
29694	What the devil are you yammering about?
29694	What was that you said about getting away?
29694	What women?
29694	What you trying to start up here in the cañon, Buddy?
29694	What''s in a word? 29694 What''s on your mind?"
29694	What''s the excitement?
29694	What''s the great idea? 29694 What?
29694	What?
29694	What_ reata_ held you?
29694	When? 29694 When?"
29694	Where did you take her, and how?
29694	Where did your father die?
29694	Where is Clodomiro?
29694	Where is a place to hide saddles here?
29694	Where is it-- Alisal?
29694	Where''d you learn horses, Bub?
29694	Where''s Billie?
29694	Where?
29694	Where?
29694	Which did the señora ride from Soledad?
29694	Which one of the fifty- seven varieties have you elected to uncover first?
29694	Which raid was that, and when?
29694	Who does he call?
29694	Who gives you right to trade the woman, señor?
29694	Who has a better right? 29694 Who has your pledge?"
29694	Who helped him? 29694 Who is to say how he uses it with the Indians?
29694	Who knows? 29694 Who knows?
29694	Who knows? 29694 Who knows?
29694	Who says so, Bub?
29694	Who says this?
29694	Who started the dope that mankind is the chosen of the Lord? 29694 Who was the other?"
29694	Why all this question when the child offers it for a good Christian use?
29694	Why bring us here when your questions were given answer as well in another place?
29694	Why burn me for his work? 29694 Why do n''t you ask how I know?"
29694	Why do you say El Aleman?
29694	Why do you say this to me, señor? 29694 Why have you come about it?
29694	Why not?
29694	Why the special guard over the treasure?
29694	Why, Miguel, do n''t you know me?
29694	Why, lad, what-- what''s got you now?
29694	Why, yes; you can cook, ca n''t you? 29694 Wild burro?
29694	Will they tell him whose trap he is caught in?
29694	With Mexico? 29694 With so many poor, how comes it that no informer has been found?
29694	Women? 29694 Would the saints send the red gold of El Alisal to a heretic instead of a son of the church?"
29694	Would you give me a bead from your string?
29694	Yes, why do you?
29694	Yes; well?
29694	Yet a priest may ask how an Americano comes far from his home to guard gold and a maid in Sonora?
29694	You are Spanish, Señorita?
29694	You are hungry?
29694	You are not then too much Americano?
29694	You have not, perhaps, ever sent a soul to God without absolution?
29694	You know what he meant when he said that?
29694	You mean that, boy?
29694	You mean the German Conrad who is manager of Granados ranches across the border?
29694	You promising all?
29694	You remember, Tula, the woman led by the padre at Soledad?
29694	You say the lady is a prisoner?
29694	You think that is true;--he will be the deliverer?
29694	You think that?
29694	You''re a cheerful idiot for work, Bub,agreed the old man,"but what the devil do you gain by doing so much of the other fellow''s job?
29694	You''ve fixed that cinch, what you waiting for?
29694	You,--the little one to whom even the Deliverer listens?
29694	You--_you_ are one of the women who knelt here for vengeance?
29694	_ Madre de Dios!_ and why not?
29694	_ Meant_ to?
29694	_ Quien sabe?_ She was making a long letter to Señor Rhodes in Sonora,--that I know. 29694 _ Tula?_"asked Kit.
29694	A sheepskin?"
29694	A trap for whom?"
29694	A year ago, and Don José was a man, with faults perhaps; but who is perfect on this earth?
29694	Addressed to Conrad?
29694	All right?
29694	Am I not as truly a victim as they?
29694	And have you no fear?"
29694	And he reports me either drunk or temporarily insane, does he?
29694	And her name?"
29694	And if things should go crooked with him, and he-- well-- sort of needs help to get out, you''ll let me know, wo n''t you?"
29694	And it may be when that pledge is kept, you may be free to join my children in the fight?
29694	And it was so cold that he could not sing, Sing- song Kitty, ca n''t yo''carry me, oh?
29694	And then----?"
29694	And they come here?"
29694	And what was the trap?
29694	And why do you think it?"
29694	And you, señora?
29694	Any other little detail you''d like to know?"
29694	Any plans for tomorrow?"
29694	Are you a hopeless dunce by training or nature?"
29694	Are you cousin, son, or nephew?"
29694	Are you trying to frighten me off the ranges?"
29694	Ask her?
29694	Billie always unloaded her troubles on me, and you say there was none of this weeping till I came back?"
29694	Bub, ca n''t you give a man a rest instead of piling up the agony?
29694	But how did Conrad know?"
29694	But how did you come to strike Granados?"
29694	But this German-- who says the German and Perez were the men to do it?"
29694	But would the thoroughbreds like it?
29694	But-- the compact, señora?"
29694	CHAPTER VII IN THE PROVINCE OF ALTAR_ There was a frog who lived in the spring: Sing- song Kitty, ca n''t yo''carry me, oh?
29694	Ca n''t Singleton see that if Conrad''s story was true he''d have the constable after me for assault with intent to kill?
29694	Ca n''t women beat hell?
29694	Ca n''t you see that he''s got a jar from which his mind is n''t likely to recover?
29694	Ca n''t you see that?"
29694	Ca n''t you see?
29694	Can it be done and trust no one?
29694	Can we strike trail tomorrow?"
29694	Can you beat it?"
29694	Can you give me the name of the ranch where they are held?"
29694	Can you tell me where those women were sent?"
29694	Cap dear, where is that one José Ortego rode in with from the railroad as we were leaving La Partida?"
29694	Capitan Rhodes, will you bring in Doña Jocasta?"
29694	Could you get a letter to her?"
29694	Did Conrad mean to leave every detail until the last moment and make difficulties for the new man?
29694	Did I myself not steal out in a shift and petticoat the first time I tried to run away with my Andreas?
29694	Did n''t we, Pat?"
29694	Did that bewitch itself away also?"
29694	Did_ I_ come in willingness to this wilderness?
29694	Do n''t you realize now who that girl is?"
29694	Do not the handsome women everywhere offer him love and comradeship?
29694	Do they give heed to any boy who calls?"
29694	Do you know in your own mind how great that is?"
29694	Do you know you are the greatest little mascot ever held in captivity?"
29694	Do you make songs-- or sing them, señor?"
29694	Do you mean that you take a trail to carry words you do n''t understand, because a girl younger than you tells you to?"
29694	Do you say Miguel is hurt, Herrara?
29694	Does any but a fool go into the wilderness without water?"
29694	Does that K stand for Kit?"
29694	Does the Indian girl then not have first right?"
29694	First your own safety, señora?"
29694	Got a flag of truce?
29694	Had Billie really suspected, or had she merely connected his Mexican friends with reports of raids for girls in the little Indian pueblos?
29694	Have I your permission, General?"
29694	Have any of you but this creature seen it?"
29694	Have n''t you some black- and- tan around the ranch to do your dirty work?"
29694	He called you capitan and said the Deliverer had made you an officer; how about it?
29694	He recalled having heard that Singleton was from Connecticut, or was it Massachusetts?
29694	He wondered if Singleton knew?
29694	He wondered if she''d tell him again he could n''t hold a foreman''s job?
29694	Her mind seems older than her years, and just notice her care of him, will you?
29694	Horses?
29694	How are you, Capitan?
29694	How comes it in your hands?"
29694	How comes that?"
29694	How could love be again with me?"
29694	How does a man account for a thing like that; I ask you?"
29694	How is one to hide a woman of beauty from desert men?"
29694	How is that?"
29694	How long has Whitely and his new friends been gone?"
29694	How many guns can we muster?"
29694	How many, and where?"
29694	How should he, when Don José has women beyond count?
29694	How should this rebel who rode on secret trails with Ramon Rotil be head man at Soledad for Rotil''s enemy?
29694	How you reckon the little trick over there ever stood it?"
29694	How you think?"
29694	How you think?"
29694	I ask of you what kind of a girl is that?
29694	I ask you how is the way of that?"
29694	I do n''t see-- What the devil ails you?"
29694	I mean Cavayso?"
29694	I no knowing, what you think?"
29694	I reckon he only took that to get rid of me, which I do n''t call friendly, do you?
29694	I suppose-- I suppose,"--he continued darkly,"everyone on and around Granados agrees that I was the villain in the assault?"
29694	I wonder how they knew?"
29694	I wonder what he meant by it?"
29694	If it''s cattle or horses they''re after the bigger ranch is the bigger haul?"
29694	If they do that to wounded men, why not to cavalry horses?
29694	In the warring of those wild men who will speak for him?
29694	In what place was it found?"
29694	Is Belgium too preposterous?
29694	Is it a band of horses coming down the mesa trail, or is it men?"
29694	Is it not so?"
29694	Is it now a prison, or a hospital for unfortunates?"
29694	Is it truly gold of the earth, or witches''gold of red clay?"
29694	Is it you, Rhodes, so early?
29694	Is one making a slow trail, and must I go herding again?"
29694	Is she as bad looking as that?"
29694	Is that not so, my friends?"
29694	Is that record of poison and powdered glass in hospital supplies too preposterous?
29694	Is that you, James?
29694	Is the señora wanting that black?"
29694	Is there any evidence that he was seen at, or near, Granados after starting for Sonora?"
29694	Is this what you''ve been hanging around for during the past week?"
29694	Isidro, will your wife be brave and willing to help?"
29694	It is not the operator''s fault; why should he not give a message concerning horses to the proprietor of the horse ranch?"
29694	José Perez, have you not seen that the Doña Jocasta Perez is even now mistress of Soledad, and that my men and I are as her servants?"
29694	K?
29694	K?
29694	Kit Rhodes?"
29694	Know you not, señor, that she is sick with shame?
29694	Know you this place in the road?"
29694	May that service begin now?"
29694	Me belong anywhere?
29694	No more sick?"
29694	Not Perez?"
29694	Now Marto Cavayso,--if that be your name!--why did you carry me away?
29694	Now can they?"
29694	Now just what is south?"
29694	Now just what lies south, and whose territory?"
29694	Now that the promise is made, how will you make it good?"
29694	Now they were in, and he wondered if they had even ten rounds of ammunition for the cartridge belts of the few trained soldiers in service?
29694	Of course it might be Señor Whitely would some day return, who knows?
29694	Of what use to speak?
29694	Of what use, I ask you?"
29694	Pike did, did he?
29694	Pike, have n''t you_ any_ imagination?
29694	Rotil?
29694	Say, are you married?"
29694	Say, what was it Whitely heard down in Sinaloa concerning the Enchanted Cañon mine?"
29694	Say, what will you bet that a month of comfort around Nogales wo n''t make you hungry for the trail again?"
29694	Señor Rhodes, which man is best?"
29694	Señor, will you arrange that the señora has what comfort there is here?
29694	She has picked it up perhaps when lost by the señora, and----""What señora?"
29694	Singleton?"
29694	So how could Dario think to find it when the padres, with all their prayer, never once found the trail?"
29694	So, if there should be any trouble with these visitors of ours, your trail is clear;--savvy?"
29694	Sure they did n''t warn you against speaking to this reprobate?"
29694	That old captain must be a live wire, but he thinks I ca n''t stick?"
29694	That poor little one has the ranchos, but have you hear how the debts are so high all the herds can never pay?
29694	That''s the Whitely outfit?"
29694	The padre is telling me that, so what use to pray?
29694	The tea of Doña Luz drove off the fever, and he only sleeps and talks, and sleeps again, but sick?
29694	Their word is that he will be the man, if-- if----""Well, if what?"
29694	Then after a little silence,"Have n''t you any curiosity?"
29694	Then he pointed to the beautifully worked_ manta_,"Did she squander wealth of hers on that?"
29694	Then the prisoner is guarded by his orders?"
29694	Then the scolding of these two comrades gives to you your freedom from suspicion, eh?
29694	Think,--is there to be found an old dress of your wife?
29694	This is no township matter, Papa Phil, ca n''t you see that?"
29694	Was he expecting anyone at Soledad?"
29694	Was it your own doing, or were you under orders of your General Rotil?"
29694	Was that the way he got rid of the Americans he did n''t want?
29694	We did n''t find it, and he took the back trail with an Indian girl and her daddy, and----""An-- Indian girl?"
29694	We''ll head up into the Castle Dome country next time, hear me?"
29694	What about them?"
29694	What can we do?
29694	What difference do the Perez favorites make to our young lives?
29694	What do you know about any?"
29694	What else?"
29694	What errand is now yours?"
29694	What have Palomitas women to do with rights in Soledad?"
29694	What is it you do here?
29694	What is the attraction for friend Conrad south of La Partida?
29694	What message did you give the muleteers?"
29694	What of_ my_ ransom?"
29694	What special process did their gods use to put the friars out of commission?"
29694	What task is mine to help?"
29694	What was that you said about the Sinaloa priest story of the red gold?
29694	What was the officer''s name?"
29694	What work is there for him to do alone in the hills?"
29694	What you think?"
29694	What''s on your mind?"
29694	What''s the answer?"
29694	What''s the excitement?"
29694	What''s the next move?"
29694	What''s the reason why?"
29694	What''s the use in a poor stray white bucking against that?"
29694	What?
29694	When can you get this to Elena?"
29694	When this matter of the slaves is arranged, will it please you to ride south, or north?
29694	When we out- trick you, we are only scum, eh?
29694	When''s your time up behind the bars?"
29694	Where did you get that?"
29694	Where have you been?"
29694	Where is Marto?"
29694	Where''s Singleton?"
29694	Where?"
29694	While she looked after him murmuring,"In days to come?"
29694	Who could he trap?
29694	Who could think it was south you were riding?
29694	Who dare we trust to even help investigate?"
29694	Who of us is sure of a morning?
29694	Who proves which is the enchanter?"
29694	Who would be better than the foreman of Soledad?
29694	Who''s your friend?"
29694	Whose is it?"
29694	Whose is this crucifix?"
29694	Whose life?"
29694	Why did she lie?"
29694	Why do n''t you wake up long enough to notice that he''s framing some excuse to run off every decent chap who comes on the place?
29694	Why should you want a Judas?
29694	Will it please you to try?"
29694	Will you aid in the Christian task of bringing them together quickly?
29694	Will you let me be your confessor, and tell me any wish of your heart I may help you to?"
29694	Will you lock him in your own room and hold the key to yourself?"
29694	Will you not forgive me such a stupid blunder?
29694	Will you speak of that murder again, and let it be put on paper for me?
29694	Will you, señor, see to it that horse and provision are made ready for the trail?
29694	Willing to parley with the enemy?"
29694	With hope and a singer for a shield, even a prison would not be so bad, El Pajarito, eh?
29694	Wonder who they are after?"
29694	Would he let a woman make traffic with it?
29694	Would he risk a good man to steal a woman of whom José Perez is tired?"
29694	Would it not be expected that Señora Perez would send the most important of the ranchmen?
29694	Would n''t it be pie for the gossips to slice up for home consumption?"
29694	Would you not think the padre some underling, and she a ruler giving laws?"
29694	Yesterday she was a child of courage and right, but what is she today?"
29694	You are Americano,--strong,--is it not?
29694	You are the Americano of the letter?"
29694	You did n''t see anything of her, did you?"
29694	You have the key?"
29694	You maybe remember Lucita?"
29694	You ride far, señor?"
29694	You sent out nary a call, and how expect the lowest of your serfs to hang around?"
29694	You think I ca n''t handle horses?"
29694	You will come, alone,--with us, señor?"
29694	Your question?"
29694	_ Again?_"smiled Kit skeptically.
29694	_ I''m not!_""What?"
29694	asked Rhodes,"we are doing well on the trail to Mesa Blanca; why stop here?"
29694	he growled,"why do you thrust that in my face,--you?"
29694	he retorted,"whose ghost are you?"
29694	he said with a sort of growl in the voice,"something chokes you?
29694	is that not enough?
29694	queried Pike,"and Billie is getting her face to the wall and crying?
29694	said Rotil thoughtfully,"and-- it is all gone now-- the love of him?"
29694	she asked morosely?
29694	she mused, looking at the note thoughtfully,"and he gives to me the evidence against José?
29694	the Señor Conrad has much sorrow, has he?"
29694	they are Don José''s men, are they?
29694	what does that mean,--rather die than go back?"
29694	what''s that?"
29694	why do you grin?"
29694	you are working in council, eh?"
