17094 | May I take Hero?" |
17094 | Now, what is it you say to Hero when you want him to hunt the men? |
17094 | Perching on a bench near by with Hero for a foot- stool, she asked,"Majah, is Hero a St. Bernard or a Red Cross dog?" |
17094 | So how could I evah find out? |
17094 | They were blue as the flax- flowers she used to gather-- thirty, was it? |
17094 | Why did you have it put on the collah, Papa Jack?" |
17094 | Why is he bowing to Papa Jack?" |
15520 | Lie down you---- fool,said the friend;"ca n''t you see you are drawing the fire?" |
15520 | Oh,said I,"there was n''t much of your poor friend left, I suppose?" |
15520 | Well,I asked him,"did you hit anything?" |
15520 | Are the burghers who survive the struggle to be evicted from their farms and left with their wives and children to starvation? |
15520 | But is there any precedent in modern times for the confiscation of the private property of a conquered people? |
15520 | But what afterwards? |
15520 | But where is such vital enthusiasm to be found in the Church of England? |
15520 | Can two uglier buildings of their kind be found in the civilised world than the English and Dutch cathedrals at Capetown? |
15520 | Can we wonder if now and then a stretcher- bearer is struck down? |
15520 | How much longer are we going to clothe our Highland regiments in kilts on active service? |
15520 | How were the Boers able to discern our approaching columns? |
15520 | Moreover, where is the land to come from for any considerable number of such settlers? |
15520 | One of the reservists asked me:"Do you think I shall lose my thigh? |
15520 | They frequently ask indignantly how it is that our guns have been outclassed by those of the Boers? |
15520 | We have, of course, had the case of the Gordons at Dargai-- who ever hears of any other regiment popularly mentioned in this connection? |
15520 | What are we fighting for, sir?" |
15520 | What right have we as Christians to bring such wholesale charges against our Christian enemies? |
15520 | Who is to provide the money for these? |
15520 | what became of the shell?" |
50968 | Truly, sir, are you not from Bordeaux? |
50968 | And in this century, when the unexpected plays such an important role, may not war bring about the most sudden and unforseen results? |
50968 | And is not this very natural when the scarcity of the nurses is compared with the enormous number of the wounded? |
50968 | Are there not international societies which are occupied with questions of charity and public utility? |
50968 | Are there not, in these considerations alone, more than sufficient reasons for us not to allow ourselves to be taken unawares? |
50968 | But why recall so many pitiful and melancholy scenes and thus arouse such painful emotions? |
50968 | Can not men, in like manner, meet to solve a problem as important as that of caring for the victims of war? |
50968 | If the terrible instruments of destruction now possessed by the nations seem to shorten wars, will not, on the other hand, the battles be more deadly? |
50968 | What are you going to do?" |
50968 | What, indeed, in spite of their good will, could a handful of persons do in such urgent need? |
50968 | Where is the irresistible allurement? |
50968 | Who goes there? |
50968 | Who goes there? |
50968 | Why relate, with complaisance, these lamentable details and dwell upon these distressing pictures? |
22095 | But Mildred,Nona asked, guessing at many details that her friend did not mention,"how did you finally get away at last? |
22095 | But he has recovered? |
22095 | But is n''t there anything I can do for you, Sonya? |
22095 | But what connection have you with Sonya Valesky? 22095 But why are we to be sent back to Petrograd?" |
22095 | But you do n''t mean that you continued inside the fort to the very end? |
22095 | But you, surely you cherish no such ideas? |
22095 | Did General Alexis agree to a new nurse for that reason, Mildred? |
22095 | Did you accept him? |
22095 | Do n''t you know me, Sonya? |
22095 | Do you mean, Mildred, that our services as Red Cross nurses are not considered valuable? |
22095 | Do you not suppose I have thought over all those things? 22095 Failed in your nursing? |
22095 | For goodness''sake, Mildred, where did you get that magnificent garment? |
22095 | Has Colonel Dalton ever married? |
22095 | Have you pity only for wounded soldiers? 22095 I wonder if this General Alexis is more fond of Mildred than he would be of any nurse who might have cared for him?" |
22095 | If you are returning to the fortress and will permit me, I should like to go back with you? |
22095 | Knew my mother? |
22095 | Lieutenant Hume? 22095 Then you have not forgotten me?" |
22095 | Then you think Siberia a light punishment? |
22095 | Then you will do nothing to help? |
22095 | This is wonderfully kind of you, Nona? |
22095 | What did one woman more or less count in times like these? |
22095 | What is one woman more or less in times like these? 22095 What on earth do you suppose he can be saying to Mill?" |
22095 | What reason was given; have we failed in any duty or service since our arrival at Grovno? |
22095 | What then do you think will become of Sonya? 22095 Where did you come from? |
22095 | Why, Lady Dorian, what has brought you to Russia? 22095 Will you wait a moment, please?" |
22095 | Wo n''t either one of you say she is glad to see me? |
22095 | You are just homesick, are n''t you, and longing for some one who shall be nameless? 22095 You care very much about this woman, this Sonya Valesky, Miss Thornton?" |
22095 | You do n''t think, General, that there is anything that could be done to have Sonya Valesky pardoned, do you? |
22095 | You mean about Sonya Valesky? |
22095 | You mean,Nona asked quietly,"that you were invited to be a guest at the Czar''s own palace and you declined?" |
22095 | You remember Monsieur Renay, whom Mademoiselle Barbara named''Monsieur Bebé?'' 22095 You say that she is a friend of yours and that it will bring you great distress if she must suffer the penalty of her mistakes? |
22095 | You will come with me for a little? |
22095 | All I ask is that I may write you and some day in happier times may I come to see my American friend?" |
22095 | Also would it be possible for her to be spared from caring for the soldiers to look after her woman friend? |
22095 | Am I to have a bed or the cot in this sitting room?" |
22095 | And have you come directly here from Grovno? |
22095 | And it is for that reason you believe I wish to have you sent away from my fortress?" |
22095 | And why should the young Russian officer have warned her against his own friend? |
22095 | Are you to go on nursing him or to see him again?" |
22095 | But I ca n''t see why she should be punished because she has a higher ideal than other people?" |
22095 | But how was she to know how much or how little an American girl understands of life and conditions in Russia? |
22095 | But if he was n''t desperately ill, why did he have you stay so long in a position of such danger?" |
22095 | But in any case how could their failures have reached General Dmitri Alexis''ears? |
22095 | But is there not room enough here and peace enough for us both?" |
22095 | But shall I tell our driver to stop?" |
22095 | But tell me what brings you back to the fortress at this time? |
22095 | But then what had become of her mother? |
22095 | But what has become of your general, Mill? |
22095 | But where was she to obtain the money for her expenses? |
22095 | Can not you see that I care very much what becomes of you? |
22095 | Could she ever feel so entirely an American again? |
22095 | Did n''t you speak of this to Colonel Feodorovitch?" |
22095 | Do girls and women never care to help one another? |
22095 | Do you think it wrong to accept it, Bab? |
22095 | Had Nona ever read of a great writer named Tolstoi, who wrote and preached of the real brotherhood of man? |
22095 | Has Sonya grown worse or is she better?" |
22095 | How can any human being be anything but wretched during this tragic war? |
22095 | How could her history as a young American girl have any connection with it? |
22095 | How could she then be satisfied with a western girl of no wealth or distinction? |
22095 | How long did you remain at Grovno, and did the Germans ever capture you? |
22095 | How much or how little should she take the Russian officer into her confidence? |
22095 | How on earth did you manage about him?" |
22095 | I am dreadfully hungry; ca n''t we have something to eat before I finish my story?" |
22095 | I simply could n''t bear living in Russia always, could you, Mildred?" |
22095 | If I can do even the least thing to help him at such a crisis, why, how could I refuse? |
22095 | If so, what on earth should she say? |
22095 | It is the custom of your country when a man cares for a woman to tell her so, is it not, or perhaps I should have written first to your father?" |
22095 | It merely asked that if Sonya Valesky should ever find it possible to know her daughter, Nona Davis, would she be her friend? |
22095 | Later, in recalling their conversation, she often thought of a phrase he used:"What is one woman more or less in times like these?" |
22095 | May I sit down?" |
22095 | Oh, Mildred, what have you been doing all this time? |
22095 | She was very unhappy, but what else was possible for her to do? |
22095 | Should she go in or not? |
22095 | Should she reveal herself in the selfsame light again? |
22095 | So with neither beauty nor charm, how could she ever even hope to gratify her mother by securing the distinguished husband she so desired for her? |
22095 | Tell us where you received your information and why we are to be sent away so ignominiously?" |
22095 | Was General Alexis actually saying that he was in love with her? |
22095 | Was Nona aware that there were many girls and young men, oftentimes members of noble families, who believed in a new and different Russia? |
22095 | Was it because she was too engrossed in her own life and her own mysterious mission? |
22095 | Was there a chance that the young Russian lieutenant might be a possible connection? |
22095 | Was there a spy or an assassin lurking in his church to destroy him? |
22095 | What could she say, except that no word of any kind had since been received from Mildred? |
22095 | What else was she to find out about this strange country before her work as a nurse was over? |
22095 | What had become of Sonya and how was she ever to find her in the great and unknown city of Petrograd? |
22095 | What had brought the old woman to Petrograd? |
22095 | What has kept you at home?" |
22095 | What must_ they_ do? |
22095 | What punishment will she have to suffer?" |
22095 | What secret could Sonya Valesky be concealing that forced even her friends to warn others against her? |
22095 | What should she do? |
22095 | What was she doing here near the Russian line of fortifications, living like a peasant with only two old peasants in attendance upon her? |
22095 | What would become of Mildred Thornton, left behind with strangers in a besieged fortress that might fall at any hour? |
22095 | When the two friends reached the hut, Nona Davis exclaimed in amazement:"What on earth has happened? |
22095 | Why had she gone away? |
22095 | Why had they always led her to believe by their silences that there was something to be ashamed of in her mother''s story? |
22095 | Why should this man create such an atmosphere of trust and respect? |
22095 | Why should you not be willing to leave her to her fate?" |
22095 | Why, do you know what has become of him?" |
22095 | Why, what would your mother and father and Dick think of my deserting you at such a time? |
22095 | Would one of the hospital physicians come and see her? |
22095 | Yet what was she to do? |
22095 | You know I told you I had met him the day he came into my hospital ward to decorate the dying soldier?" |
33990 | All persons possessed of any genius are supposed to be vain, are n''t they, Carlo? 33990 And all this long speech, which may or may not be complimentary, leads up to just what human equation at present?" |
33990 | And who is that romantic young soldier standing beneath her? |
33990 | Are n''t you praying every moment, Ruth, that we may be ordered forward with the army of occupation into Germany? 33990 Are you not Major James Hersey, one of the youngest majors in the United States overseas service? |
33990 | Are you sure you will not become tired, Bianca, and the distance is not too much for you? |
33990 | Bee is looking better than you expected to find her, is n''t she, Carlo, and more like a little girl? 33990 Bianca,"Carlo asked,"have you ever read the story of the Rheingold in the Ring of the Nibelung? |
33990 | But do n''t you think, Dr. Raymond, we might ask the friends who have come to welcome us and who seem hungriest to share our food? 33990 But who is this Countess Charlotta whom you desire to have with you here in Coblenz in order that you may continue your friendship?" |
33990 | But you do n''t mean, Countess Charlotta--"How do you know my name? |
33990 | But you will stay and see if Freia is seriously hurt? 33990 Ca n''t you guess and tell me first, Sonya?" |
33990 | Carlo, you have not asked Bianca to dance, you wo n''t forget, will you? |
33990 | Do n''t you think we had best go back to the hospital in a few moments, Thea? |
33990 | Do n''t you think we had better go back, Charlotta? |
33990 | Do n''t you think, Colonel, we might postpone the interview until the arrival of Mrs. David Clark? 33990 Do you think I might talk to your father? |
33990 | Do you think, Sonya, that Carlo knew he was to be cited this afternoon? |
33990 | Do? 33990 Have you been dancing, Bianca?" |
33990 | I wonder how you managed that, Miss Jamison? |
33990 | I wonder if you are going to be willing to do me a great favor? 33990 I wonder if you will tell me just what members of Dr. Clark''s staff are going with him?" |
33990 | I wonder why we can not take''La petite Louisa''along with us, Sonya? 33990 I wonder, Carlo, if you will ever learn to think or talk of any one except yourself?" |
33990 | If you do n''t mind, Tante, would you mind ringing the bell? 33990 If you do n''t mind, may I take off my hat while I talk?" |
33990 | Is this the way you like your tea, Carlo? 33990 May I write you after we go away and tell you where we are to be stationed? |
33990 | Not Carlo? |
33990 | Not jealous, are you, Bee? 33990 Queer song for me to sing, is n''t it, Bianca?" |
33990 | Shall I try pushing the little front door open, Mrs. Clark? 33990 Then we are friends, are n''t we, Bee? |
33990 | We are not walking faster than you like, Miss Pringle? |
33990 | What are you going to do with this child, Sonya? |
33990 | What brings you to Coblenz? 33990 What is it you wish to talk to me about?" |
33990 | What is it, baby? |
33990 | What is it, what has happened? |
33990 | Why not walk as we have many times with my hand in your''s to keep you from slipping, Bianca? |
33990 | You are Mrs. Clark are n''t you? 33990 You are sure there is no one who may overhear us, Colonel Winfield?" |
33990 | You do n''t approve of my having come away from home in the way that I did, do you, Major Hersey? 33990 You have been to see our troops break camp and start for Germany? |
33990 | You will sit down, wo n''t you, and wait until we hear whether Mrs. Clark will be able to join us tonight? |
33990 | After all one could understand, the German viewpoint since in spite of having been told to love our enemies, how few of us have accomplished it? |
33990 | And if it were possible and not too much trouble could she remain at the American Red Cross hospital until her recovery? |
33990 | At least you will let me bring you a chair?" |
33990 | Besides why did Fraulein Liedermann not entertain her girl friends in the drawing- rooms of her home? |
33990 | Besides, after all, would it be so unpleasant to share one''s future with Bianca? |
33990 | But do you think you ought to talk? |
33990 | But have you Dr. Clark''s note to the officer of the day? |
33990 | But if Captain Liedermann were well why should he continue to make a pretence of illness? |
33990 | But my problem is, would he accept an apology which did not include obedience? |
33990 | But now that I am safely here, you will take me with you to Germany? |
33990 | But where is your usual companion, the little French girl?" |
33990 | But wo n''t you have this chair?" |
33990 | By the way, do you suppose we know any people here? |
33990 | Can the war not be over among us women at least? |
33990 | Do n''t you think she will probably have many admirers, Carlo?" |
33990 | Do you remember how the Pied Piper led the German children away into some undiscovered country when their parents refused to pay him his just dues? |
33990 | Do you suppose it would be possible for me to get hold of a horse in Coblenz which I could use? |
33990 | Do you think I could get to America without being discovered? |
33990 | Had he been told he was to be decorated?" |
33990 | Has Carlo spoken to you on the subject recently? |
33990 | Have n''t you some woman who is your friend to whom you could appeal? |
33990 | Have you ever been desperate enough not to care what happened to you?" |
33990 | I am sure you agree with me?" |
33990 | I say, here comes Mrs. Clark now, why not ask her to help you?" |
33990 | I suppose he would only think me extraordinarily impertinent?" |
33990 | I suppose, Colonel Winfield, that you could arrange for us to go to the United States?" |
33990 | I wonder if the excitement of our journey is having a strange influence upon me?" |
33990 | I wonder if you are one of the lucky persons who never grow up? |
33990 | If so why had little Gretchen told so ingenious a falsehood? |
33990 | It is foolish to be prejudiced against people, is n''t it? |
33990 | May I at least talk to Dr. Clark? |
33990 | May I wish you all good fortune?" |
33990 | Miss Jamison, you will look after her, wo n''t you, since she seems to prefer you?" |
33990 | Nicht war?" |
33990 | Now you are tired, shall I not send you back to the hospital in my car?" |
33990 | Odd name his for an American, what is it?" |
33990 | Still you have been very successful and perhaps may wish to keep on with nursing as a profession after we return home?" |
33990 | Then if you are still in Coblenz and I write you, wo n''t you come to Luxemburg? |
33990 | Therefore would Nona marry him as soon as it could be arranged? |
33990 | Under the circumstances I wonder how long our Red Cross unit may remain?" |
33990 | Was it my good fortune or my ill fortune that I landed in Paris just three days before the armistice was signed to begin my Red Cross nursing? |
33990 | Was it possible that she did not desire to forgive and forget as the little German frau appeared to wish? |
33990 | Was it singular that one could not recover from the sensation of acute distrust in the presence of a German? |
33990 | Was it true that Captain Ludwig Liedermann was still unable to move from his bed? |
33990 | Was there not a grave near Château- Thierry and a memory which must forever divide them? |
33990 | What are you thinking about?" |
33990 | What do you think we should do?" |
33990 | What matter if the Germans had failed in their war against freedom, if her own freedom was still denied her? |
33990 | What on earth made you come for a walk without any warmer clothes? |
33990 | What would she do when she returned to the old narrowness of her past existence with the eternal disagreements? |
33990 | What would you do? |
33990 | When love hath flown, who shall endure?" |
33990 | Where, child, had you ever heard my name?" |
33990 | Why not talk to her? |
33990 | Will you ask him to give me a few moments? |
33990 | Will you meet me in an hour under the big linden tree in the park where Freia and Gretchen tell me you are in the habit of playing with them? |
33990 | Will you trust me and not report my actions to any one for the present?" |
33990 | Would Major Hersey also try to be present? |
33990 | Would it do the least good? |
33990 | Would n''t you like to share my fame?" |
33990 | Yet what is the harm in my amusing myself? |
33990 | You do n''t mind my being a little complimentary?" |
33990 | You have relatives here whom you are intending to visit?" |
33990 | You wo n''t mind if I go on eating a moment longer, will you? |
53730 | And I wonder how you formed that opinion, Nona? 53730 And Monsieur Bebé?" |
53730 | Are n''t you pleased to see me, Barbara-- Miss Meade? |
53730 | Are you disappointed in what they wish you to do, Barbara, child? |
53730 | Are you disgusted with me, Gene? |
53730 | Are you very rich, Eugenia Peabody? |
53730 | Barbara? |
53730 | But I thought I was to be your guest of honor, Gene? |
53730 | But if Eugenia understood what she would have to face, whatever made her do such a mad thing? 53730 But is n''t Nona one of the prettiest girls you ever saw and the most charming?" |
53730 | But you have n''t said what the trouble is between us, Bab, or whether you are willing to forgive me? |
53730 | Can we stop a minute somewhere, Gene, before we get back to the house? 53730 Desert us?" |
53730 | Dick Thornton, can it be possible this is you, when you are in Brussels? |
53730 | Dick,she said in an awed tone,"did n''t you use_ both_ your arms just now, when you kept me from falling?" |
53730 | Did anyone in the world ever talk in such a ridiculous fashion as Barbara, and yet was there ever anyone so delightful? |
53730 | Do n''t you understand what the ivy means? |
53730 | Do you know what ivy stands for? |
53730 | Do you know, girls, Eugenia Peabody has become a mystery to me lately? 53730 Does he appear more cheerful since I left him with you a week ago?" |
53730 | Great heavens, who was that, Gene? |
53730 | How are things going, Bibo? |
53730 | How can one help being? 53730 How could I? |
53730 | I know it is a painful situation, Eugenia dear, but what_ can_ you do with three babies? 53730 I say, Barbara, why ca n''t I go along with you?" |
53730 | I say, which would you prefer, to talk to a man without a collar or to help him put one on? 53730 I wish you could persuade Barbara Meade to share that idea of yours, Nona?" |
53730 | I wonder if I shall ever learn what to say and what not to say, Gene? |
53730 | Is that American frankness, Eugenie? 53730 Let us have tea, wo n''t you, please, Dick?" |
53730 | Please wait a while, Madame Carton, if possible, until I can see you again? |
53730 | Shall we tell Barbara now? |
53730 | Sounds polite, does n''t it, what I am trying to say? 53730 Tell me, Miss Peabody, what do you think I should do?" |
53730 | That is tremendously good news, is n''t it? 53730 Then Gene is well?" |
53730 | Was Dick here this afternoon? |
53730 | We were hurt with Eugenia for not taking us into her confidence sooner, were n''t we? |
53730 | What do you mean? |
53730 | What do you suppose father really did mean, then, Mill? |
53730 | What does this mean? |
53730 | What is it you wish me to persuade Barbara to believe? |
53730 | What is it, Dick? |
53730 | What is the matter, Bab? 53730 What possible harm could be done if Monsieur Bebé, in reality Albert Reney, be transferred to Eugenia''s home in the woods? |
53730 | What shall I do? 53730 What would Eugenia have done for one of them under the same circumstances?" |
53730 | What would you give to have that same little French girl, Nicolete, talk to you some day not very far off? |
53730 | Whose room is this, Eugenia? 53730 Why do n''t you say something, Gene?" |
53730 | Why do you happen to be wearing that spray of ivy so proudly, Dick? |
53730 | Why should I try to deceive you? 53730 Why, what does this mean, Eugenia?" |
53730 | Will you wait a moment, please, until the children can be taken to another part of the yard? |
53730 | You do n''t mean, Eugenia Peabody, that you have decided to give up the Red Cross work and go back home? 53730 Your place beside me?" |
53730 | Am I ever going to be sensible again?" |
53730 | And how was it possible that any human being could escape from Belgium whom the Germans wished to detain? |
53730 | Are you a princess in disguise? |
53730 | Ask her as a favor to me?" |
53730 | But I wonder if it is fair to Mildred and Nona to have you leave them for even a short time? |
53730 | But how convince her of this at the present moment? |
53730 | But how could any human being have suspected Eugenia of riches when she wore such dreadful clothes?" |
53730 | But it is true, is n''t it, Eugenia, that if one is happy oneself, it is not hard to bear the sufferings of other people? |
53730 | But the fact is, I did n''t care then, because, because-- Oh, why is it so hard to get it out, Gene? |
53730 | But what was the root of the trouble between her and her two former friends? |
53730 | But why, after all, had Nicolete decided to come away with them from her own beloved land? |
53730 | Ca n''t you help me? |
53730 | Ca n''t you think of some way to save us_ all_?" |
53730 | Did you think for an instant I would allow you and Eugenia to go on this long trip alone, when Eugenia has been so ill? |
53730 | Do old maids now and then represent the real mother spirit? |
53730 | Do you remember two Red Cross nurses to whom you gave some flowers that you and the other soldiers had made grow in the mouth of your trench? |
53730 | Do you think I''ll make a great failure as a mother, Bab?" |
53730 | For was not Dick a soldier of peace rather than of war, yet one who had made the same sacrifice? |
53730 | How big was Eugenia''s house and her sympathy these days? |
53730 | How long must I serve before you return my affection?" |
53730 | How was she to make him see Eugenia''s point of view? |
53730 | I believe it was the first evening after Dick Thornton arrived in Brussels? |
53730 | I ca n''t tell her this to her face though, can I, Eugenia? |
53730 | I do n''t see why girls need always be ashamed of caring for people who do n''t care for them? |
53730 | I do n''t suppose you have the faintest idea of what I am trying to say? |
53730 | I know it is an ungrateful present, but you''ll listen, wo n''t you?" |
53730 | I never believed Nona as strong as you, Barbara, so why do you seem so used up? |
53730 | I wonder if it was because you were brought up in the south that you are so conventional? |
53730 | I wonder if real saints ever had such traits of character? |
53730 | If I can not like her now because she is prettier and more charming than I am, then why did I like her at the beginning of our acquaintance? |
53730 | If possible, would you like one of us to write you?" |
53730 | Is it because you enjoy looking after the Belgian children?" |
53730 | Is that why you haunt the church of Saint Gudula?" |
53730 | Is there any one here to assist you?" |
53730 | Is your work at the hospital more difficult than hers?" |
53730 | May I buy the house from your mother? |
53730 | May I go inside and see?" |
53730 | Moreover, where could she be going? |
53730 | Or was he hearing again the cracking of rifles, the booming of cannon, all the noises of the past year of life in a trench? |
53730 | Shall I return to Brussels and give us all up to the authorities?" |
53730 | Should she insist that Dick was not in love with Nona when she knew absolutely nothing about it? |
53730 | Suppose they should be compelled to scamper for shelter just at the critical moment in Eugenia''s plans? |
53730 | Suppose this Miss Peabody should be so inconsiderate as to die? |
53730 | Then I wonder if it is best I should leave you alone? |
53730 | Then afterwards we both watched Nicolete dance and you threw her a spray of mignonette?" |
53730 | Was he dreaming of Provence before France was driven into war? |
53730 | Was it not possible that Eugenia be removed to a hospital or to her own home until she recovered? |
53730 | What could she have in mind this afternoon of greater importance? |
53730 | What could_ I_ possibly do to help you? |
53730 | What excuse did she have for saving the man and his family? |
53730 | What had_ they_ to do with this war and its horrors? |
53730 | What is it that has been making you feel and behave so differently toward me lately? |
53730 | What makes you believe as you do, Barbara?" |
53730 | What other reason could she have, except to spare me humiliation, for refusing to have anything to do with me since I came to Brussels? |
53730 | What possible danger could come to these little kiddies and me?" |
53730 | What right had she to be jealous and miserable because a beautiful experience had come to Nona and Dick? |
53730 | Which one of you shall it be?" |
53730 | Who do you think arrived in Brussels today to help with the American Relief work?" |
53730 | Whom had she in hiding all these weeks, risking her own liberty for his or her safety? |
53730 | Why had he not made the suggestion to Barbara Meade rather than to her? |
53730 | Why had she not come with them this afternoon? |
53730 | Why should any one of us expect her to be?" |
53730 | Will you go with me upon a more cheerful excursion some day?" |
53730 | Will you listen while I read it to you? |
53730 | Wo n''t you wear this?" |
53730 | Wonder if you have ever guessed my secret, Nona?" |
53730 | Would you like Nona and me to leave you? |
53730 | Yet it must be some one whose safety her friend considered of great importance, for had she not deliberately lied to her? |
53730 | Yet what reason could there have been for not telling her they expected Richard Thornton''s appearance in Brussels on this particular afternoon? |
53730 | You are not trying to play at being the patron saint of Brussels, are you? |
53730 | Your place is with them rather than any one else, is n''t it?" |
44202 | And you have taken charge of these nurses? |
44202 | Conductor, you had a hot box a few miles back; do n''t you think it should be looked to after passing MacClenny? |
44202 | Had he a family; did they want food, or clothing? 44202 Is dat all?" |
44202 | Of what? |
44202 | On Change,like the price of wheat on the market? |
44202 | Well,said Miss Barton,"do you think you could not raise seeds enough from those onions?" |
44202 | What do you go for? |
44202 | Will you not tell her? |
44202 | Would she like to return to the childhood home in Indiana? |
44202 | Would you ladies take the agency of the Red Cross to deliver supplies to these people? |
44202 | Yes, is n''t it enough? |
44202 | --What had I done? |
44202 | Again I would say that to those taking the first lessons in army life, all these things seem incomprehensible, to say the least, and"Who''s to blame?" |
44202 | Among these hard facts appears a conscientious theorist and asks, Is not war a great sin and wrong? |
44202 | And these were the women who went to the war: The women of question; what_ did_ they go for? |
44202 | And weary eyes grew brighter then, and fainting hearts grew strong, And hope was mingled in the cry,"How long, oh Lord, how long?" |
44202 | And what did they know about_ war_, anyway? |
44202 | And what would they do if war came again? |
44202 | And when can true friendship be tested if not in the hour of misfortune? |
44202 | Are we not to be run out and wait aside and salute with dipping colors while the great battleships come up with music and banners and lead the way? |
44202 | Before us now lie the problems of the future, and the question is: How shall we meet them? |
44202 | But is man doing this work alone? |
44202 | But the subject changed with"How many cases did you lose in this epidemic, Mammy?" |
44202 | But what had stirred America up and set it, apparently, against us? |
44202 | But what need to tell? |
44202 | But where should they look? |
44202 | Can you not help me out with this?" |
44202 | Can you send doctors with medicines from Harpoot? |
44202 | Can you send food?" |
44202 | Can you wonder that so many poor creatures were drowned or that anything was saved at all? |
44202 | Could I be permitted to ask to see them under flag of truce? |
44202 | Could anything appeal more piteously; could it be more pathetic? |
44202 | Could it be possible that we were to learn this anew? |
44202 | Could this be secured within two or three months from men not experienced in war? |
44202 | Could you telegraph her?'' |
44202 | Courage, hope, enterprise to bestir themselves, where will they come from? |
44202 | Did our commands, military or naval, hold men great enough of soul for such action? |
44202 | Did some one tell me? |
44202 | Do we even want to recall them? |
44202 | Do we need to live them over? |
44202 | Do you want additional nurses? |
44202 | For what, indeed, was it laboring? |
44202 | Had anything been worse than this? |
44202 | Had he little children?" |
44202 | Had the nation gone mad, or what_ had_ happened to it? |
44202 | Has that any significance or any connection with philanthropy? |
44202 | Holyland?" |
44202 | How shall I describe our daily work? |
44202 | How shall we thank Miss Clara Barton and the Red Cross for the help they have given us? |
44202 | How was it to be done? |
44202 | How was this to be done? |
44202 | I attempted to write the real state of things to you; but of what use? |
44202 | I did not at once recall him, but among his first remarks were,"You have been at the front?" |
44202 | I had still the courage to persevere, and added,"What would you have me do, if I could do it?" |
44202 | If a parasite, drawing sustenance from others? |
44202 | If in any way it has disappointed the expectations of the country or the people? |
44202 | If it has been a costly adjunct to the government? |
44202 | If it has been an idle body? |
44202 | If it has found favor with the people it has gone to aid? |
44202 | If it has gained or lost in public estimation? |
44202 | If it has given cause to the government to regret its admission? |
44202 | If it has promised and not performed? |
44202 | If it has sustained its national standing in good repute with the affiliating nations of the world? |
44202 | If its work has been actual, or merely appeared upon paper? |
44202 | In regard to the good accomplished by the Red Cross( a question so often asked), can more be said than this? |
44202 | In what minds did it originate? |
44202 | Inquiry showed them to cost$ 5.00 per barrel, and was it any wonder they did not eat them? |
44202 | Is n''t it encouraging a bad principle; would n''t it be better to do away with all war? |
44202 | Is the Red Cross a humanitarian organization? |
44202 | It was at one of these meetings the fact had been presented that the prime problem was"How to feed 30,000 people with$ 30,000 for one year?" |
44202 | Just how far was the American Government disposed to accept the services of this society? |
44202 | No purpose of our own? |
44202 | No regular hours? |
44202 | No routine-- no system? |
44202 | One of the first questions Count Tolstoi asked was,"What do you think of most? |
44202 | One of the nurses(? |
44202 | Ought we to provide for it, to make it easy, to lessen its horrors, to mitigate its sufferings? |
44202 | Painless either to the victim or the nation? |
44202 | Said an old aunty to a lady friend of mine:"Has yer children, honey?" |
44202 | Shall we not in this way encourage rulers and peoples to engage in war for slight and fancied grievances? |
44202 | Should not the executive officer in every large hospital be selected somewhat with reference to his business capacity? |
44202 | Tell her the error? |
44202 | The great query which confronts us, and often with a tinge of seeming reproach, is:"Why is so little known of your organization? |
44202 | The query is, could not this mortality be reduced by the plan suggested? |
44202 | The question has often been asked:"While America was so active in this charity, what was the government of Russia doing for its unfortunates?" |
44202 | The relief societies going to pieces, and turning sad glances here? |
44202 | The women who went to the field, you say, The_ women_ who went to the field; and pray What did they go for?--just to be in the way? |
44202 | There are eighteen on our list who left with you and Colonel Southmayd; where are your comrades?" |
44202 | There is no room for comment, only who is lost, who has escaped, and what can be done for them? |
44202 | They had provided for two and could only get trace of one; where was the other? |
44202 | They would scream at the sight of a gun, do n''t you see? |
44202 | To the question so frequently and kindly asked of us,"Did you have money enough, or were you embarrassed in your operations by want of funds?" |
44202 | To what did America object, and how could these objections be overcome? |
44202 | To whom is this movement due? |
44202 | WHAT IS THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE RED CROSS IN ITS RELATION TO PHILANTHROPY? |
44202 | Was it painless? |
44202 | Was not this a call for the Red Cross? |
44202 | Was this a country to reject a treaty for the help of wounded soldiers? |
44202 | Was this all there was of us? |
44202 | Was this people to decline a humanity in war? |
44202 | Was this to remain so? |
44202 | We were met with this unanswerable reply:"Who would pay for them?" |
44202 | Were men again to fall, and women weep? |
44202 | Were these the women and men to stand aloof and consider? |
44202 | What amount do you consider necessary?" |
44202 | What could be done? |
44202 | What could it mean? |
44202 | What could they_ do_?--of what_ use_ could they be? |
44202 | What did this nation do during eighty agonizing and memorable days but to watch the effects of one bullet wound? |
44202 | What have we in readiness to meet these emergencies save the good heart of our people and their impulsive, generous gifts? |
44202 | What is the significance of the Red Cross? |
44202 | What mischief have they been devising in secret?" |
44202 | What more could such a woman wish? |
44202 | What shall I say of it? |
44202 | What should one do but to ask counsel of all within reach? |
44202 | What subjects occupied my mind most when going to sleep?" |
44202 | What was it expected to do or how to do it? |
44202 | What was to become of the little waifs of the wind, rain and high tide? |
44202 | What, then, was this conference, whose magic wand had, so to speak, electrified all nations? |
44202 | When will the need for this help end? |
44202 | Where could help come from? |
44202 | Where shall we find something published about it?" |
44202 | Where were the Spanish fleets? |
44202 | Who instituted it? |
44202 | Why is it not written up, and circulated among the people for general information? |
44202 | Why to Smyrna, then to Alexandretta, points where nothing is the matter and no help needed? |
44202 | Will he glance at the boats on the great western flood, At Pittsburg and Shiloh, did they faint at the blood? |
44202 | Will history write us blameless? |
44202 | Will it not be said of us that we completed the scheme of extermination commenced by Weyler? |
44202 | Will not the world hold us accountable? |
44202 | Will not this meet your wishes even better than recommended in your cablegram yesterday? |
44202 | Will some soldier tell us of one he saw run? |
44202 | Would it be asking too much for you to go to Havana to superintend the distribution of these stores under the law? |
44202 | Would it be out of place for me to urge the good people who read this report to remember this when sending to the next field? |
44202 | Would n''t peace societies be better? |
44202 | and what would be the result when found and met? |
44202 | and where were we to break that Cuban wall and let us in? |
44202 | p. 515 happened[ to] it? |
44202 | the list grows apace, as they come at the call: Did these women quail at the sight of a gun? |
44202 | whar is de Colonel? |
44202 | where did they not? |
44202 | where is it? |
41097 | ''Is there one, even more than one, who thinks of Natawara as a coward?'' 41097 ''Know you not?'' |
41097 | ''Where is Natawara?'' 41097 All night?" |
41097 | An Indian for a partner, eh? |
41097 | And I suppose you called the rest of us sleepy- heads for not being with you? |
41097 | And why, young lady? |
41097 | And you do n''t want your count to be in vain, do you? |
41097 | Any other business into which you desire to inveigle me? |
41097 | Are n''t they delicious? |
41097 | Are n''t they long? |
41097 | Are n''t we loaded though? |
41097 | Are n''t we the sillies? |
41097 | Are n''t you excited about Aunt Madge being married, Mary Lee? |
41097 | Are we all ready for our ride? |
41097 | Are we going to have our beach supper tonight? |
41097 | But do n''t you find it awfully hard to give up your afternoons-- in fact, all your time, to work and study? |
41097 | But how did the daughter get to be a Campfire Girl? |
41097 | But whatever shall we read? |
41097 | But wo n''t Mrs. Quinn need me here? |
41097 | By the way,interrupted the doctor,"has Mary Lee ever thought of what she is going to be when she grows up?" |
41097 | Can we turn the order in? |
41097 | Can you tell us? |
41097 | Could you come and see me in the morning? 41097 Did he come back?" |
41097 | Did n''t Dr. Anderson tell me that you have had some experience in the handling of babies? |
41097 | Did n''t you ever read''Tartarin of Tarascon,''by Alphonse Daudet? |
41097 | Did you girls bring any matches? |
41097 | Did you have them all the time? |
41097 | Did you leave a letter for me? |
41097 | Do n''t you feel like a freak? |
41097 | Do you know that Jim Lee and Tom Marshall were here? 41097 Do you know, Dr. Anderson, the child has absolute faith that some day she and her relations, those that are still alive, will be reunited?" |
41097 | Do you mean to say that the fish will cook like that? |
41097 | Do you really want to do that? |
41097 | Do you suppose they wandered off on one of these trails? 41097 Do you think we can make it before it''s pitch dark?" |
41097 | Do you think we should wait and do our work for the Red Cross? |
41097 | Do? 41097 Does he say that the French doctors have helped him any?" |
41097 | Fortunate, you fortunate? 41097 Has Mr. Cameron bought any Liberty Bonds? |
41097 | Have n''t you ever seen the word''escargots''on the menu cards? |
41097 | Have you come to help, children? |
41097 | Have you come to stay? |
41097 | Have you decided that it is too hard work, my dear? 41097 Helped him any?" |
41097 | How about using the tune of''The Bear Went Over the Mountain''? |
41097 | How are the Campfire Girls, Aunt Madge? 41097 How can you tell which is which?" |
41097 | How did you ever find it? |
41097 | How long will it take to cook them that way? |
41097 | How many bonds did Mr. Marshall tell you to buy, dad? |
41097 | How many do you think I should buy? |
41097 | How many? |
41097 | How would you like to have a cup of sassafras tea? |
41097 | I wonder if I can impose on your goodness a little more? |
41097 | I wonder if he has any mail for you and me? |
41097 | If each of us collected two dollars and fifty cents, that would mean three hundred dollars, would it not, Miss James? |
41097 | Is Aunt Madge coming home? |
41097 | Is n''t Bob brave to travel by himself on a sleeper? 41097 Is n''t Bob clever, to be able to do this?" |
41097 | Is n''t it all wonderful? |
41097 | Is n''t it fine? |
41097 | Is n''t it great to be part of such a big undertaking? 41097 Is n''t it lovely the way the path trails and yet continues ever upward?" |
41097 | Is n''t it perfect? |
41097 | Is n''t she a perfect darling? |
41097 | Is n''t this ideal? |
41097 | Is the child any better? |
41097 | It certainly seems strange to think of Aunt Madge as Mrs. Anderson, does n''t it? |
41097 | It is money for the war, and because Germany is not a democratic nation the fight against it is called a fight for Liberty, is n''t it? |
41097 | It is perfectly splendid, is n''t it? |
41097 | It would be splendid if we could make a strike, would n''t it? |
41097 | It''s a wonderful place, is n''t it? |
41097 | Let''s get ready at once, shall we? |
41097 | Listen,said Letty,"what''s that whistle?" |
41097 | Must? |
41097 | My, is n''t she a strict Campfire Guardian? |
41097 | Now, is n''t this better? |
41097 | Now, will you tell? |
41097 | Oh, girls, where am I? |
41097 | Oh, what is that? |
41097 | Or, perhaps you would like to write to her yourself? |
41097 | Shall I write and tell Mary Lee that you are here? |
41097 | Shall we, Letty? |
41097 | Shall we? |
41097 | So we can all go? |
41097 | Surely, you are counting on staying for supper, such as it is, I hope? |
41097 | Swift Water, his first wife, felt the black rage of hate and envy-- and who could blame her? 41097 That early plunge surely gives one a great appetite, does n''t it?" |
41097 | Then we can not sell you any? 41097 There''s a lesson in the story for today, is n''t there?" |
41097 | They do? |
41097 | Three and one- half per cent? |
41097 | WHAT SHALL WE WEAR? |
41097 | Was n''t his brother splendid? |
41097 | Was n''t it a delightful trip? |
41097 | Was n''t it the hardest French you ever read? |
41097 | Was n''t that lovely? |
41097 | We never really saw the Adirondacks before, did we? |
41097 | We''ll call a meeting of the group tomorrow afternoon, shall we? |
41097 | Well, Bob,asked the girl,"what are you going to do this fall?" |
41097 | Well, there''s one thing we know-- we want Mary Lee with us, do n''t we girls? |
41097 | What are you going to do with your share, Jim? |
41097 | What can we do? |
41097 | What do you hear of Jim Lee? |
41097 | What is it, dear? 41097 What kind are they?" |
41097 | What will you do in the meantime? |
41097 | What will you wear? |
41097 | When does Jim Lee join the army? |
41097 | When does Mrs. Anderson come home, Mary Lee? |
41097 | When shall we start? |
41097 | Where are you going to live when you are married? |
41097 | Where would you get the sassafras? |
41097 | Which two do you mean? |
41097 | Which two? |
41097 | Who is afraid? |
41097 | Who was he? |
41097 | Whoever has to sit up and tend it all night? 41097 Whoever would eat them?" |
41097 | Why not read it and see? |
41097 | Why should he tell me to buy any bonds? |
41097 | Why should you feel it to be your duty to sell them to me? |
41097 | Will she, Mary Lee? |
41097 | Will that do? |
41097 | Will they let us do anything? 41097 Will you come over tonight, Ruth?" |
41097 | Wo n''t Aunt Madge be pleased with our Red Cross work at the school? |
41097 | Wo n''t it be heavenly? |
41097 | Wo n''t we be glad to see her? |
41097 | Wo n''t you tell us? |
41097 | Wonder if she''ll be displeased at our group''s merging with the Red Cross work? |
41097 | Would you like to come along? |
41097 | Yes,said that young lady,"it does look as if we were just forcing ourselves upon you, does n''t it?" |
41097 | You and your father are great friends now, are n''t you? |
41097 | You did n''t say what the Indian''s name was, did you? |
41097 | You do n''t? |
41097 | You do? |
41097 | You mean that you have set a mark which you must attain in order to allow yourselves to go? |
41097 | You say you are having an investigation made, doctor? |
41097 | _ Can_ we? |
41097 | ''Wherefore shall I kill?'' |
41097 | 188 MARY LEE, THE RED CROSS GIRL MARY LEE The Red Cross Girl CHAPTER I SPRING AT THE FARM"From whom is the letter, Mary Lee?" |
41097 | And that Jim Lee joined the army?" |
41097 | And wherefore should they be the bearers of bad news? |
41097 | And, Tom, what are you going to be when you grow up?" |
41097 | Are you glad?" |
41097 | But I had better start supper, if you will excuse me?" |
41097 | But dear me, why talk about school and studies when we''re off on a''lark''?" |
41097 | But where do you suppose Father Bird and Mother Bird are? |
41097 | But who is the chief of the Wah- hi- tis?'' |
41097 | But you must not tell anyone about this nest, will you? |
41097 | CHAPTER XXI"WHAT SHALL WE WEAR?" |
41097 | Ca n''t you stay here until tomorrow and try it on?" |
41097 | Can not Natawara make his own fights, answer insults himself?'' |
41097 | Come, we''ll both help set the table, shall we?" |
41097 | Could I do more? |
41097 | Could these both be sons of the same father? |
41097 | Did n''t Ruth and Edith and Letty send any messages with you? |
41097 | Did they tell you when they were coming out here? |
41097 | Did we frighten them away?" |
41097 | Do n''t you think so, mother?" |
41097 | Do n''t you think so?" |
41097 | Do you know, Mary Lee,"the boy continued,"both mother and father think just everything of you? |
41097 | Do you think that is too much?" |
41097 | Do? |
41097 | Finally Ruth inquired:"How much do they expect us to collect?" |
41097 | Forgotten did I say? |
41097 | Have you heard the wonderful news that Bobbie and Mr. and Mrs. Cameron are coming home at last? |
41097 | Have you? |
41097 | He was a celebrated Frenchman, was n''t he?" |
41097 | How much do you think we can pledge our group to collect?" |
41097 | I suppose you will accept our invitation to go out in the automobile after supper, Mary Lee? |
41097 | If anything happens to me, you will see that my share is turned over to her, will you?" |
41097 | Is n''t it a lovely world?" |
41097 | Is n''t it funny looking, as it crawls along, carrying its shell on its back?" |
41097 | Is n''t it marvelous that Bobbie is cured and will be just like other boys?" |
41097 | Is n''t it time for these young ladies to go to bed, mother?" |
41097 | Is that satisfactory, Jim?" |
41097 | Is that satisfactory?" |
41097 | Is there anything else?" |
41097 | It is like a regular miniature white clay pipe, is n''t it?" |
41097 | It''s delightful-- and would n''t you call it recreation to be able to do the things our Red Cross Group is doing? |
41097 | It''s hard to imagine, is n''t it?" |
41097 | Just what would take the place of the excitement and planning of the last few weeks? |
41097 | Lee?" |
41097 | Lee?" |
41097 | May I tell her, Mary Lee?" |
41097 | Not even one?" |
41097 | Of course we shall have to''hike''all the way over from the station, but wo n''t it be fun? |
41097 | Remember our promise, do n''t you, for the week of June 18th?" |
41097 | Ripling Sees it Too,''''The Baby and the Bachelor''?" |
41097 | Shall I?" |
41097 | Shall we?" |
41097 | The bridegroom? |
41097 | Tomorrow is Friday, so why not go this week? |
41097 | Was it any wonder as Mrs. Quinn sat thinking over all these things that a tear or two trickled down her cheeks? |
41097 | We simply ca n''t use anything smaller, can we?" |
41097 | Were his eyes playing tricks with his wandering thoughts? |
41097 | Were n''t we lucky to have Aunt Madge for our Guardian?" |
41097 | Were n''t you, Mary Lee?" |
41097 | What do they say? |
41097 | What do you suppose she wants?" |
41097 | What do you think of destroying all evidence of the fact that this mine exists and leaving here for a year or so? |
41097 | What has happened?" |
41097 | What made you think of that, when there are so many of your friends who would make you more than welcome?" |
41097 | What was this miracle that brought the past back to him? |
41097 | When you get back, Mary Lee,"he continued,"will you get Dr. Anderson''s consent? |
41097 | Who said country life would not agree with our Mary Lee?" |
41097 | Who says so? |
41097 | Whom else shall we ask beside us three?" |
41097 | Why is that, I wonder?" |
41097 | Why worry over its color?" |
41097 | Will Bob buy any?" |
41097 | Will you do it for me?" |
41097 | Will you please write my cousin? |
41097 | Wo n''t it be fun when we can see the little bird''s eggs, and afterwards the little birdies themselves? |
41097 | Wo n''t you both sit down?" |
41097 | You will, wo n''t you, Mary Lee?" |
41097 | You wo n''t have to work any longer at Dr. Payson''s, will you?" |
41097 | You''ve heard me speak of him, have n''t you?" |
41097 | [ Illustration:"HELLO, MARY LEE, HAVE YOU COME TO STAY?"] |
41097 | said Letty,"instead of one like her?" |
16567 | A good one? |
16567 | A waiter in a restaurant? |
16567 | A young girl, unprotected? 16567 Alone? |
16567 | And does she still live at Charleroi? |
16567 | And her mother''s name and address? |
16567 | And how do you feel? |
16567 | And now? |
16567 | And then? |
16567 | And what may they be? |
16567 | And when they are gone? |
16567 | And which side have you come to assist? |
16567 | And why did n''t you let us know you were on the way from far- off Los Angeles? |
16567 | And you think the enemy can not capture Dunkirk? |
16567 | Are n''t they fighting now? |
16567 | Are they really his children? |
16567 | Are you fully resolved upon this course, Maud? |
16567 | Are you hit? |
16567 | Are you looking for a young lady-- a nurse? |
16567 | Bed, when the Germans come? |
16567 | Blacksmith? 16567 But do n''t they need the ship-- the_ Arabella_?" |
16567 | But why did n''t you go home, to your Island of Sangoa? |
16567 | But why examine us at all? |
16567 | By the way, have you found a doctor? |
16567 | Ca n''t you find us a driver? |
16567 | Can I do anything more for you? |
16567 | Can that be done, doctor? |
16567 | Collins? 16567 Could Henderson get to Charleroi, do you imagine?" |
16567 | Could n''t we start to- morrow for Arras, Uncle? |
16567 | Could she have been a lady of rank, think you? |
16567 | Cowardice? 16567 Did n''t the general want you, then?" |
16567 | Did she find you in Dunkirk? |
16567 | Did you not tell us, when first we met you, that you were heart- broken over the separation from your wife and children? |
16567 | Do n''t you know? |
16567 | Do n''t you suppose Patsy could start for home pretty soon? |
16567 | Do you consider this a wild goose chase, Doctor? |
16567 | Do you mean that we are prisoners? |
16567 | Do you suppose a high- born young lady would marry a common soldier? 16567 Does he speak English or French?" |
16567 | Does it hurt? |
16567 | Does n''t our sacred mission protect us from such annoying details? |
16567 | English, or French? |
16567 | For Charleroi? |
16567 | German? |
16567 | Good morning, my dear,and then, with a trace of anxiety in her tone:"What is the news, Uncle John?" |
16567 | Have you her photograph? |
16567 | Have you money to pay the rent and to provide food and clothing? |
16567 | Have you so much money? |
16567 | He will live, then, you think? |
16567 | He will live? |
16567 | How about Antwerp? |
16567 | How about a chauffeur? |
16567 | How about the Belgian we picked up on the road? |
16567 | How did it happen, Maurie? |
16567 | How did you make the mistake? |
16567 | How far away do you think the Germans are? |
16567 | How long are we liable to be detained? |
16567 | How long will it take us to reach Calais? |
16567 | How many husbands has Clarette? |
16567 | How old were you then? |
16567 | How on earth can we manage to cross the lines? |
16567 | If you''re in such a blamed hurry to go fishing, why do n''t you get rid of me now? |
16567 | In what way? |
16567 | Indeed? |
16567 | Is Maurie within? |
16567 | Is her husband an officer? |
16567 | Is it a charge, do you think? |
16567 | Is it too late to go in chase of the launch? |
16567 | Is n''t honesty appreciated here? |
16567 | Is n''t there some young fellow with these requirements? |
16567 | Is n''t this escape liable to be rather embarrassing to us, Uncle John? |
16567 | Is n''t this the day Maud Stanton is due to arrive? |
16567 | Is there not much land in Belgium? |
16567 | Is this the way to retain the friendship of New Yorkers? |
16567 | It''s a tremendous undertaking, and-- what can one girl do in the midst of all those horrors? |
16567 | Jones? |
16567 | M- m,purred Uncle John;"where does she live, this young wife?" |
16567 | Monsieur is not here long? |
16567 | Must we promise that? |
16567 | Name? |
16567 | No? |
16567 | Nothing, eh? 16567 Oh, Ajo, is n''t this war terrible?" |
16567 | Oh, is that his name? |
16567 | Oh, yes, some of the big guns are spitting, but what is that? 16567 Oh,"said Patsy, finding him there when she came up from breakfast,"where is Clarette?" |
16567 | Oh; do you really think so? |
16567 | Oh; do you want a full confession? 16567 On what business?" |
16567 | Otto Elbl of Munich? |
16567 | Really? |
16567 | Sangoa? |
16567 | Shall I let him talk? |
16567 | Shall I show them up, Miss? |
16567 | Shall we put him inside? |
16567 | So we''re free? |
16567 | So you are better? |
16567 | Still on earth? |
16567 | Suppose we move over to one of those, a little nearer the soldiers? |
16567 | Tell me; how is he? 16567 That is n''t our affair, is it? |
16567 | That rascal, Maurie--"Oh, was Maurie in it? |
16567 | The Red Cross? |
16567 | The aeroplane? 16567 The king?" |
16567 | Then I''m to go along? |
16567 | Then you consider me beautiful, Uncle John? |
16567 | Then you will not let us have Maurie? |
16567 | There is no hope, then? |
16567 | To cross the ocean? |
16567 | To- morrow? 16567 Want me? |
16567 | Was n''t the deck patrolled? |
16567 | Well, sir? |
16567 | Well, sir? |
16567 | Well, what happened? |
16567 | Well-- that''s true,sighed the little millionaire,"but what are we going to do about it?" |
16567 | Well? |
16567 | Well? |
16567 | What can you expect, without a formal introduction? |
16567 | What do you think that fool did? |
16567 | What do you think, General? |
16567 | What does Uncle John say? |
16567 | What does she look like? |
16567 | What does she say? |
16567 | What does this mean? |
16567 | What is it, von Holtz? |
16567 | What is that? |
16567 | What is your name, my good man? |
16567 | What is your name? |
16567 | What place is north of us? |
16567 | What was it, Captain? |
16567 | What was it, then? |
16567 | What''s it? |
16567 | What''s that, Collins?... 16567 What''s up?" |
16567 | What''s wrong? |
16567 | Whatever have you been doing with yourself since then? |
16567 | When did you get to town? |
16567 | When? |
16567 | Where are the Germans? |
16567 | Where are you going? |
16567 | Where are you going? |
16567 | Where can I find him? |
16567 | Where did it strike you? 16567 Where is the German, Lieutenant Elbl?" |
16567 | Where will you go? |
16567 | Where''s Elbl? |
16567 | Where''s the doctor? |
16567 | Which gentleman is Mr. John Merrick? |
16567 | Which launch? |
16567 | Who dressed your wounds? |
16567 | Who else may claim them, monsieur? |
16567 | Who is Gys? |
16567 | Who is he? |
16567 | Who promised you? |
16567 | Who will run the launch? |
16567 | Why did n''t he get out of the way? |
16567 | Why did n''t you tell us before? |
16567 | Why do n''t you avoid the-- the danger line? |
16567 | Why do n''t you go along? |
16567 | Why impossible? |
16567 | Why not yourself, Lieutenant? 16567 Why not?" |
16567 | Why not? |
16567 | Why should he, sir? 16567 Why?" |
16567 | Why? |
16567 | Will he suffer much pain, while it is getting well? |
16567 | Will that dreadful Colonel Grau go, too? |
16567 | Will you keep him here much longer? |
16567 | Would you like to see him? |
16567 | You are Belgian? |
16567 | You came to get me because you thought he would die? |
16567 | You say you had land at Ghent? |
16567 | You will be responsible for his person? 16567 You? |
16567 | Your pardon,said he,"but-- are the wounded all cared for?" |
16567 | Your sweetheart? |
16567 | _ You_, Beth? |
16567 | A bullet, mademoiselle?" |
16567 | A driver? |
16567 | Am I not here, driving your ambulance and going boldly among the officers? |
16567 | And have you been married long?" |
16567 | And wounded-- still an invalid?" |
16567 | Are you his nurse?" |
16567 | As a race the English hate us, I''m positive, and I wonder why?" |
16567 | But ca n''t you see, my dear, that we''re not able to do everything for those poor wounded soldiers? |
16567 | But do n''t you suppose they would let her come to see her dying husband?" |
16567 | But do those who send them into danger ever get hurt? |
16567 | But if you live in Ghent, why are you in Dunkirk?" |
16567 | But shall we do that, and put poor Maurie in peril of being overtaken?" |
16567 | But-- how could I help it when she looked at me that way?" |
16567 | By the way, how is Gys behaving now? |
16567 | CHAPTER IX COURAGE, OR PHILOSOPHY? |
16567 | Civil, or military?" |
16567 | Could the American mamselle remember what the girl''s first name was? |
16567 | Denton?" |
16567 | Denton?" |
16567 | Did I understand that your captain will guarantee the German''s safety?" |
16567 | Do n''t you, Doctor Gys?" |
16567 | Do you know that disease will kill as many of those soldiers as bullets?" |
16567 | Do you know why?" |
16567 | Do you remember that any of your young girls were married about five months ago?" |
16567 | Do you understand a car?" |
16567 | Do you wonder I hesitate to meet strangers?" |
16567 | Have a cup of tea, Maurie?" |
16567 | Have we decided, then, to return to America?" |
16567 | Have you any idea-- Eh? |
16567 | Have you heard the latest news? |
16567 | Have you noticed how people scatter at the sound of our gong?" |
16567 | He is n''t interested in propositions? |
16567 | He wo n''t come?... |
16567 | How do you explain that?" |
16567 | How do you like it?" |
16567 | How many did you bring?" |
16567 | I knew when it hit me, but I also knew I could move my arm, so what did it matter? |
16567 | I wonder who they are?" |
16567 | I''ve a fine proposition for him.... Eh? |
16567 | If it is the end, what matter whether it is good or bad?" |
16567 | Is he still shaking with fear?" |
16567 | Is it not so?" |
16567 | Is n''t it a terrible affliction?" |
16567 | Is that satisfactory?" |
16567 | John Merrick, the retired millionaire? |
16567 | May I venture to ask you for an advance of a couple of hundred for a few weeks? |
16567 | Merrick?" |
16567 | Number 121 Friedrichstrasse?" |
16567 | Otherwise--""Otherwise?" |
16567 | Patsy asked the boy:"Can you lead us to the man who gave you this paper?" |
16567 | Patsy faced the woman resolutely and said in French:"Why did you wish to get to Dunkirk?" |
16567 | Perhaps you will tell me who I am?" |
16567 | Presently the countess asked in her soft, even voice:"Will he be alive when we get there?" |
16567 | Shall we guarantee that your cousin will not try to escape?" |
16567 | She ran up to him and asked:"Are you hurt?" |
16567 | She said to Gys that evening, when they met on deck,"Would n''t it be wise for you to wear a mask in the operating room?" |
16567 | Sitting with you now? |
16567 | The Germans capture Dunkirk? |
16567 | Then the Germans are on us?" |
16567 | Von Holtz admitted a slim, good- looking young Belgian who grasped his hand and said eagerly in French:"You sent for me?" |
16567 | Was it a bullet-- or what?" |
16567 | Was it the council, do you think, Lieutenant?" |
16567 | We strut and talk big; we call the politicians sharks, the soldiers fools; but does it do any good? |
16567 | What do you say, Captain Carg? |
16567 | What do you think of that?" |
16567 | What do you think? |
16567 | What do you think? |
16567 | What do you think?" |
16567 | What does it matter, Uncle? |
16567 | What in thunder_ is_ he interested in?... |
16567 | What is a foot, to a man like him? |
16567 | What is the despair of one poor Walloon to you?" |
16567 | When can we start, Ajo?" |
16567 | Where did you get them?" |
16567 | Where is it?" |
16567 | Where is that Belgian-- Rondel?" |
16567 | Where''s Beth?" |
16567 | Who will go with me?" |
16567 | Why not?... |
16567 | Why should they be?" |
16567 | Will he get well?" |
16567 | Will the Germans capture Dunkirk?" |
16567 | Will you go with me?" |
16567 | Will you leave this room peaceably, or shall I order you under arrest?" |
16567 | Would it be-- safe?" |
16567 | You are on detached duty, I believe?" |
16567 | You speak their language, I believe?" |
16567 | You will guarantee that he will not escape?" |
16567 | he demanded;"and is a rich man confined to one home? |
16567 | pleaded Uncle John, plaintively,"why do you insist upon flavoring our breakfast with these horrors? |
16567 | were you born here, Patsy? |
16567 | what does it mean?" |
16567 | why should we care? |
59536 | ''The queen will fight?'' 59536 A little more bacon, I guess, now, Mr. Bob? |
59536 | All good little war workers, are n''t you? |
59536 | And Marian got up too? 59536 And how do you feel about that?" |
59536 | And the stork,--what did he say? |
59536 | And went to the aviation field? |
59536 | And where did it all happen, Elizabeth? |
59536 | Are any of the others wounded? |
59536 | Are n''t you coming out a little while, Lucy? 59536 Are n''t you rushing things a little?" |
59536 | Are you going to New York, Father? |
59536 | Are you looking for me, daughter? |
59536 | Are you sure it does n''t hurt now? |
59536 | Are you wondering what on earth got me up at this hour? |
59536 | But Marian-- you took her too? |
59536 | But are you the only officer imprisoned here? |
59536 | But can he leave here? |
59536 | But do you think he''ll go back to fight? 59536 But how about the Boches? |
59536 | But there''s not much harm in watching them fly, do you think, Lucy? 59536 But we''ll have something to eat first, sha n''t we? |
59536 | But what did the doctor say who saw the bandage? |
59536 | But what was wrong with your hand? |
59536 | But what were you going to say? |
59536 | But what will you do, Cousin Henry? 59536 But what''s the matter with her pulse, Miss Thomas?" |
59536 | But, Lucy,she asked with a new wonder,"why are n''t you sure? |
59536 | Ca n''t I do anything? 59536 Can you tell us where we are going?" |
59536 | Captain Bertrand-- do you think he is any better? |
59536 | Come to the Red Cross to- morrow morning, Lucy? 59536 Could I go over there and see it, do you think?" |
59536 | Did I, Elizabeth? |
59536 | Did Lucy tell you what we think, Marian? |
59536 | Did Miss Lucy say they''d be right down? |
59536 | Did he? |
59536 | Did they come? |
59536 | Do Father and Mother know? |
59536 | Do n''t I know it? |
59536 | Do n''t I, though? 59536 Do n''t feel well, Lieutenant?" |
59536 | Do n''t you find it good? |
59536 | Do n''t you like shepherd''s pie? |
59536 | Do n''t you wish you could thank that dear old Elizabeth? |
59536 | Do you think Bob will go back to the war? |
59536 | Does he hear from him? 59536 Does n''t he?" |
59536 | Does n''t sound very promising to you, does it? 59536 Drink all this now, ca n''t you? |
59536 | Elizabeth and Karl? |
59536 | Good gracious, did she catch fire? |
59536 | Good- bye? |
59536 | Has your father sent you any more new ones? |
59536 | Have I seen that one? 59536 Have n''t you ever seen her, Lucy? |
59536 | Have you any dressings-- bandages-- I could use for the wounded prisoners? |
59536 | Have you any idea where they are now? |
59536 | Have you seen the new forts beyond the village? |
59536 | He may have some milk right on the table by my plate, may n''t he, Lucy? |
59536 | He''s safe there, Marie, do n''t you think so? 59536 Here''s the aviation field-- see it? |
59536 | How about me? |
59536 | How are you, Elizabeth? 59536 How can any one say, Dad, that this war has n''t the chances for heroism that other wars had? |
59536 | How did you get away? |
59536 | How do you mean? |
59536 | How far have you gone, Marian? |
59536 | How long have you been here, Captain? |
59536 | How long was he in the war? |
59536 | How nearly through are you, Lucy? 59536 How soon do we stop?" |
59536 | How soon do you want it? |
59536 | I fasten your dress, Miss Lucy, shall I? |
59536 | I frightened you, I fear? |
59536 | I guess I''d better make a good infantryman first,--is that it? |
59536 | I guess we wo n''t go out on the sea- wall to- day, said Lucy;unless you especially wish to?" |
59536 | I have seen a spy from the American army across there with the French, and whom do you think it was? 59536 I know all about it, so I may hear what you say to them, may n''t I?" |
59536 | I think she''ll like it here, do n''t you, Julia? |
59536 | I''ll promise not to go again without telling you, so wo n''t you forgive me this time? |
59536 | I''m pretty worthless, are n''t I? |
59536 | Is Elizabeth very sick, Lucy? |
59536 | Is Father in his office? |
59536 | Is every one out? 59536 Is it to Germany?" |
59536 | Is it you, Elizabeth? |
59536 | Is it you, Karl, home so early? |
59536 | Is n''t he a cunning little fellow, Marian? |
59536 | Is n''t it cold? |
59536 | Is n''t it lots nicer since Bob made the Germans let him go? |
59536 | Is n''t she cruel? |
59536 | Is n''t the water pretty, William? |
59536 | Is she nice? 59536 Is your cousin going to stay with you all summer?" |
59536 | It should be around eighty, should n''t it? |
59536 | It_ is_ pretty, is n''t it? |
59536 | Karl make any more of those fluffy muffins now, Elizabeth? |
59536 | Karl-- here? 59536 Lucy, what do you think? |
59536 | Marian, do you remember saying that she and Karl were dangerous to have around? 59536 May I ask your name and where you were taken?" |
59536 | May I take these home to finish, Mrs. Houston? 59536 Might I ask your name?" |
59536 | Mr. Harding,she burst out,"do you,--you do n''t think I am a chatterbox,--I mean that I tell everything I know,--do you?" |
59536 | Mr. Harding,she faltered,"have n''t you time to tell us good- bye?" |
59536 | Must I treat you roughly to get it? 59536 Now the frog comes hopping in, does n''t he?" |
59536 | Oh, Bob, was n''t it great? |
59536 | Oh, Cousin Henry-- do you m- mean it? |
59536 | Oh, I''m so glad, Marian,cried Lucy warmly,"but I do n''t want you to go away a bit-- will you have to?" |
59536 | Oh, Julia, how can you do them so fast? 59536 Oh, Mr. Bob, why did you come here? |
59536 | Oh, do n''t you suppose Captain Jourdin would come to see us if you asked him? |
59536 | Oh, does her tooth ache again? 59536 Oh, is n''t this nice?" |
59536 | Oh, let''s have him, let''s keep him,--mayn''t we, Lucy? |
59536 | Oh, poor little thing,--she''s still ill, then? |
59536 | Oh, then, ca n''t you play tennis this afternoon, either? |
59536 | Oh, what, Mother? 59536 Oh, who is it? |
59536 | Really? |
59536 | Say, is n''t that fine? 59536 Shall I light the candles?" |
59536 | She took Marian along, you say? 59536 She wants to join, does n''t she?" |
59536 | Something hard about a father? 59536 Supposing that I knew something to tell, and the orders were secret-- would you expect me to?" |
59536 | Take her with me, Bob, will you? 59536 Tell me, what is it?" |
59536 | The Lieutenant expects to see service on the other side very shortly? |
59536 | Then why does n''t he get this poor fellow moved? 59536 There was n''t any danger, anyway, was there, Dad? |
59536 | There''s a meadow just to the left,he said at last,"north of the village-- see it? |
59536 | They are n''t going to separate us, Benton? |
59536 | Think they have softened his heart, Bob,--is that the idea? |
59536 | Undo it, Cousin Sally, wo n''t you? 59536 Want chocolate in yours?" |
59536 | Was he ever taken prisoner? |
59536 | Was n''t it? |
59536 | We''ll sit down in your room here and have a story, shall we? |
59536 | We''ll walk over with you,--shall we, Marian? 59536 Well, do n''t go up again just now, Bob, will you? |
59536 | Well, have you left him anything? 59536 Well, son, how do you feel about it?" |
59536 | Well, what have you guessed? |
59536 | Well, what is it this morning, daughter? |
59536 | Were you at the aviation field again this afternoon? |
59536 | Were you in the one that flew over the harbor an hour ago? |
59536 | What are you going to do, Mother? |
59536 | What did you hear? 59536 What do you think?" |
59536 | What else would I do? |
59536 | What happened to your hand? |
59536 | What is her temperature, Miss Gordon? |
59536 | What is it? |
59536 | What is the matter there? |
59536 | What on earth happened? 59536 What shall I tell?" |
59536 | What time shall we reach our destination? |
59536 | What''s got into that child, anyway? |
59536 | What''s the matter? 59536 What''s this?" |
59536 | What, can you really feel ill because you think you''re going to? |
59536 | What? 59536 When are they coming? |
59536 | When may I see you again, Captain? 59536 Where are you going?" |
59536 | Where did you hear it, anyway? |
59536 | Where is my blanket? |
59536 | Where is the doctor? |
59536 | Where you going, Lucy? |
59536 | Where''s Bob? |
59536 | Where? |
59536 | Who are these for? |
59536 | Whom do you think I have seen? |
59536 | Why do n''t you get out and stretch your legs? 59536 Why do n''t you try a little?" |
59536 | Why does n''t every one live in the South, I wonder? 59536 Why not, Miss? |
59536 | Why, Lucy? |
59536 | Why, what in the world is it? |
59536 | Why, what''s happened to your thumb, Bob? |
59536 | Why, you''ve always had a governess, Marian, have n''t you? |
59536 | Will you button my dress for me, Lucy? 59536 Will you go now,--this second?" |
59536 | Will you stay here for a while and attend to the customers while I do my figuring? 59536 Will you tell me how far they go? |
59536 | Will you wait here until I bring the clothes, or will you come with me to my house? |
59536 | Will you? 59536 William-- why do you always get so tied up with everything? |
59536 | Wo n''t they let us go anywhere else? |
59536 | Wo n''t you please send back one when you get over there? |
59536 | Wo n''t you tell some of the things he''s done? |
59536 | Would n''t it be queer to have them come back to you from nobody knows where? |
59536 | Would n''t that be great? 59536 Would you have me betray the Fatherland?" |
59536 | Yes, he sent word we were to expect them on the noon boat, and, oh, Mother, what do you suppose Marian will be like? |
59536 | Yes, is n''t it? |
59536 | Yes, is n''t she nice? |
59536 | You admit having come down by accident with Captain Benton this morning? |
59536 | You are ill, Captain? 59536 You do n''t know just where he is, do you, Lucy?" |
59536 | You have heard nothing of it? |
59536 | You have n''t had any letters from home, Sergeant? 59536 You know what you''ll get if you are caught-- out of uniform?" |
59536 | You mean we may walk in that little space in front at this time? |
59536 | You mean you are ill? |
59536 | You say when you saw him at the outskirts of the village he was dressed in peasant''s clothes, Müller? |
59536 | You tell your mother, will you? |
59536 | You wo n''t tell me, will you? |
59536 | You''ll write-- I mean often, every day, wo n''t you? |
59536 | Your blanket? |
59536 | Your mother not back yet from town, Miss Lucy? |
59536 | Your name''s Happy, do you hear? |
59536 | _ Anglais?_he asked, his voice quavering with astonishment, and his eyes wandering all over Bob as though puzzled beyond words at his presence. |
59536 | *****[ Illustration:"IS THE TWENTY- EIGHTH GOING OVER THIS WEEK?"] |
59536 | A month is n''t so awfully long, is it? |
59536 | A prisoner?" |
59536 | Almost a smile hovered over her lips, and at sight of it Lucy sprang forward, crying,"What is it, Mother? |
59536 | And Captain Brent is here too, is n''t he? |
59536 | And a poached egg?" |
59536 | And after Marian''s almost fainting yesterday, even though she did act so bully afterward, what do you think about her joining? |
59536 | And has n''t your father been rushed to death, lately, without giving any particular reason?" |
59536 | And now was the home regiment to follow? |
59536 | And while the little princess look up after him she see the sky through the chimney- top----""And the house was all gone, was n''t it?" |
59536 | Andrews?" |
59536 | Any quinine? |
59536 | Are n''t these the silliest sentences?" |
59536 | Are n''t you coming out to parade?" |
59536 | Are you here?" |
59536 | Are you quite sure about that reward?" |
59536 | Are you sure she''s none the worse for it?" |
59536 | Are you worse?" |
59536 | At sight of him he settled back again, inquiring with mild mockery,"Well, did you persuade the Germans to confide anything to you? |
59536 | Bob Gordon?" |
59536 | Bob gave him no time to voice his displeasure, but on entering the room said in such German as he could muster:"Where is the doctor? |
59536 | But do n''t you still miss the old Twenty- Eighth? |
59536 | But go on, Mother, wo n''t you?" |
59536 | But it''s enough to cheer up a little on-- isn''t it, Lucy?" |
59536 | CAPTAIN LUCY 322 Illustrations PAGE"IS THE TWENTY- EIGHTH GOING OVER THIS WEEK?" |
59536 | Ca n''t he see that he''s dying on his hands? |
59536 | Ca n''t we, Marian?" |
59536 | Ca n''t you come in?" |
59536 | Can he get letters?" |
59536 | Can you think of a place?" |
59536 | Captain Bertrand is very ill. Why have n''t you had him taken away?" |
59536 | Come on, so we can write and tell him how much you''ve done-- won''t you?" |
59536 | Come with me?" |
59536 | Could there be better proof than this of our loyalty?" |
59536 | Could they not see me?" |
59536 | Could you-- will you lend me those clothes you wear while I go quickly into the village and return? |
59536 | Did Father hear from them?" |
59536 | Did he do wonderful things first, Captain Brent? |
59536 | Did the dentist hurt much?" |
59536 | Did you contrive long for your escape?" |
59536 | Did you expect it?" |
59536 | Did you expect to get away if nobody appeared to be in sight?" |
59536 | Do come up and see Elizabeth when you get your things off, wo n''t you?" |
59536 | Do n''t we owe them anything, Karl, that you are so ready to harm them?" |
59536 | Do n''t you know what she''s like?" |
59536 | Do n''t you think she has grown to be a very pleasant little guest?" |
59536 | Do n''t you think they could use him for something in the spy line?" |
59536 | Do you know Lucy and Marian went down to the dock to see them off? |
59536 | Do you like her?" |
59536 | Do you mind calling up Julia and Mr. Lewis, Marian, and telling them we ca n''t play with them this afternoon?" |
59536 | Do you remember the day long ago when he fell off his horse, how you picked him up and carried him in the house? |
59536 | Does he mean Mexico?" |
59536 | Does she look as if I had?" |
59536 | Fly a little lower, ca n''t you?" |
59536 | Have you any request to make?" |
59536 | Have you forgotten that?" |
59536 | Have you forgotten the long, happy years we spent there? |
59536 | Have you told any one?" |
59536 | He got up, nodding shortly in acknowledgment, but the only reply he vouchsafed was the inquiry, in English,"You some money perhaps have?" |
59536 | He rose a moment later to take leave, and Captain Brent, lingering a few moments after him, said,"Do you know what he''s hoping for? |
59536 | He said huskily to the doctor,"You''ll do your best for him, wo n''t you, Herr Doctor?" |
59536 | He seems very ill. Is there nothing that can be done for him? |
59536 | He seized the speaking tube and shouted,"What''s the matter?" |
59536 | He told the Frenchman where he came from and the length of his service, finally asking,"Can you give me any idea of where we are, Captain?" |
59536 | He wanted to ask,"Who are you?" |
59536 | He''d come if you asked him, would n''t he, Captain Brent?" |
59536 | How about it?" |
59536 | How do you feel about Karl living here since we are at war? |
59536 | How long would the war last? |
59536 | How would you like to be sent into Germany as a factory hand?" |
59536 | Hurry up now, though, wo n''t you, Bob, and put on your uniform?" |
59536 | I do n''t believe she will, anyway-- why should she? |
59536 | I hate seeing people go, do n''t you?" |
59536 | I never said so, anyway, so why the row with me?" |
59536 | I wonder what I was dreaming of?" |
59536 | I''ll ask Father to tell me,--wouldn''t any secret be safe with us? |
59536 | I''m sure you want to do everything you can to get well soon, do n''t you?" |
59536 | In the village-- in the fellow''s clothes?" |
59536 | Inside his own door he found Bob coming down- stairs and accosted him with,"Well, any news for you, Bob?" |
59536 | Is it Bob?" |
59536 | Is it a secret to every one outside of the regiment?" |
59536 | Is she hurt?" |
59536 | It is a little better, yes? |
59536 | It was closed, but yielded to his touch, and saying softly,"May I come in, Captain?" |
59536 | It''s not quite so cold to- day, do you think so, Lucy?" |
59536 | It''s on the new land beyond the Infantry Quarters, is n''t it, Lucy?" |
59536 | Karl frowned, staring at her with hard eyes, but she faltered,"You wo n''t give him up, Karl? |
59536 | Lucy, is it you?" |
59536 | Major Gordon stopped lighting his pipe to ask in surprise,"What, have you heard it already?" |
59536 | Marian looked doubtful and asked,"How far is it?" |
59536 | May I come and see you?" |
59536 | May I sit down on the little brother''s sled?" |
59536 | Nothing for me?" |
59536 | Of course, there''s nothing like safety first, but who is there on this post to be afraid of? |
59536 | Our first- aid class begins to- day-- you have n''t forgotten it? |
59536 | Outside, somewhere-- what was happening, anyway? |
59536 | Shall I proceed?" |
59536 | She laughed at the delight in his face as she said:"You''re surprised, are n''t you, Father, to see me so fat and strong? |
59536 | Sort of like to join the army yourself, would n''t you?" |
59536 | Suppose you could do anything to keep me from losing the nail, Elizabeth? |
59536 | The three girls walked home together as far as the Gordons''and Julia said, as they discussed the morning''s work:"Is n''t she a nice, jolly person? |
59536 | The words of an old song came into his mind:"Do they miss me at home, do they miss me, When the shadows darkly fall?" |
59536 | Then as the shock of her recognition of him outweighed his curiosity he asked, bewildered,"Who knows I am here? |
59536 | Then before Mr. Harding could answer she persisted,"Is the Twenty- Eighth going over this week? |
59536 | Want to come, William?" |
59536 | Was he ever taken prisoner?" |
59536 | Was this Bob, who had never been able to move quickly enough? |
59536 | We''re going out, are n''t we?" |
59536 | Well, did they let you fly?" |
59536 | What a slacker you are, anyway-- can''t you grin and bear it, as other fellows do?" |
59536 | What are you standing there for?" |
59536 | What can I do?" |
59536 | What do you say to my inviting them all to our house afterward, to play games and have ice- cream? |
59536 | What do you think of it, Marian?" |
59536 | What do you think? |
59536 | What good would it do them to know that he was lost? |
59536 | What is it? |
59536 | What on earth for? |
59536 | What put that idea into your head?" |
59536 | What should I have done without you?" |
59536 | What time do you report?" |
59536 | What time is it? |
59536 | What would you say?" |
59536 | What''s a day or two, anyway? |
59536 | What''s his name?" |
59536 | What''s the kodak for?" |
59536 | What''s the matter?" |
59536 | What''s the use in having cold ears and a frozen face, and being nearly blown off your feet? |
59536 | What_ can_ you do, if the Germans do n''t want to let him go?" |
59536 | When can he come here?" |
59536 | When did you get back?" |
59536 | When the opportunity came she demanded, breathlessly,"Was he badly wounded? |
59536 | Where did you get him?" |
59536 | Where do we go from here?'' |
59536 | Where is it? |
59536 | Where is your obedience?" |
59536 | Where was the push made?" |
59536 | Where would Bob be, anyway, a year from now, if the war still went on? |
59536 | Why would n''t you tell me?" |
59536 | Will you come, Marian?" |
59536 | Will you come, Marian?" |
59536 | William seemed quite willing to help her get it, for he asked:"Do you mind pulling Happy, too, Lucy? |
59536 | Wo n''t you get up, Lucy, so we can take him for a walk around the post before school? |
59536 | Wo n''t you tell me?" |
59536 | Wo n''t you?" |
59536 | Would you like that?" |
59536 | Would you think so if I learned what we want to know about the block- houses before it''s dark enough to start? |
59536 | You are n''t any of you too old to like Blind Man''s Buff and Stage- Coach and Winks, are you?" |
59536 | You remember?" |
59536 | You will believe me?" |
59536 | Your father is an officer on the post?" |
59536 | _ Zwei_ Bob knew, but two what? |
59536 | and you went down in the night?" |
8137 | ''Ice Carnival''? |
8137 | ''Who''s dead?'' 8137 Academic, or moral?" |
8137 | All ready? 8137 And I wish to know,"Laura added haughtily,"how he dares intimate that I am not''a good looker''?" |
8137 | And are you not yet assured? |
8137 | And did you boys get that man who ran the poor fellow down on Market Street last night? |
8137 | And his name''Peyton''? |
8137 | And his suit? 8137 And how about me? |
8137 | And is he paying Hester back by shouldering something for her? |
8137 | And much gladder that she was right on the job here when the horse came along, are n''t you, Lil? |
8137 | And not a thing about him to identify him? |
8137 | And so ruin the whole play? |
8137 | And then what? |
8137 | And this is Miss Morse, is n''t it? 8137 And what became of the other man?" |
8137 | And what do we deserve? |
8137 | And where did you beau Janet from? |
8137 | And who are you, to tell me when I''m wrong? |
8137 | And without chains? |
8137 | And you shot them over there on Cavern Island? |
8137 | Are n''t you a clever lad? |
8137 | Are you boys trying to defend the guilty person? |
8137 | Are you going home, Miss Steele? |
8137 | Are you sure he is? |
8137 | Aw----"Suppose that man at the hospital dies? |
8137 | Because I''ve been to the hospital to find out He''s got a broken leg and a broken head----"Is he conscious yet? |
8137 | But about Margit Salgo? |
8137 | But did n''t Short and Long have suspicions? |
8137 | But did you hear the address she gave? 8137 But do you think old Gee Gee would say that she was wrong, and beg their pardon?" |
8137 | But have n''t you examined it? |
8137 | But have they learned nothing about him? |
8137 | But he does n''t know who he is? |
8137 | But suppose poor Chet has to lose fifty dollars? |
8137 | But tell us how much Hessie has been set back? |
8137 | But the car? |
8137 | But what happened then? |
8137 | But what''s the big idea, as Chet himself would say? |
8137 | But what''s the matter here, Laura? |
8137 | But where is her friend, Miss Grimes? |
8137 | But who ever heard of such a thing? |
8137 | But who is he, do you suppose? |
8137 | But who was he? |
8137 | But who will take Grimes''place? |
8137 | But you looked at her? |
8137 | Ca n''t Margit play? |
8137 | Ca n''t you see? |
8137 | Call me a story- teller, do you? |
8137 | Can it be Margit Salgo? |
8137 | Can it be possible that Purt Sweet would do such an awful thing and not really betray himself before this? |
8137 | Can it be possible that Purt is shielding Hester in this matter? |
8137 | Can you? |
8137 | Chains on his wheels, Billy? |
8137 | Coming your way? |
8137 | Did he? 8137 Did n''t he have any papers about him that explain those points?" |
8137 | Did you get a good look at that car? |
8137 | Did you get any cottontails? |
8137 | Did you have him arrested? |
8137 | Did you hear the latest about Old Dimple? |
8137 | Did you turn that horse? |
8137 | Do n''t you always have sich when you girls go in for acting? |
8137 | Do n''t you two girls remember the Saturday night that man was hurt on Market Street? |
8137 | Do you know that the party was held the very Saturday night the man was hurt? |
8137 | Do you know who this is? |
8137 | Do you know, Miss Belding, what the complete delight of wealth is? 8137 Do you mean he has lost his mind?" |
8137 | Do you mean,asked Laura,"what makes him act so to Purt?" |
8137 | Do you remember what night that party was held, Lily? |
8137 | Do you say I-- I have_ cheated? 8137 Do you see, now?" |
8137 | Do you suppose I would tell old Gee Gee that it was my fault? |
8137 | Do you suppose she will be able to help us? 8137 Do you suppose so?" |
8137 | Do-- do you suppose we might see him? |
8137 | Does he know he has so much money? |
8137 | Does he say he is? |
8137 | Does n''t he? |
8137 | Does n''t she always do something to queer us if she can? |
8137 | From what? |
8137 | Got it all locked up, Laura? |
8137 | Got your nonskid- chains on, Purt? |
8137 | Has he found out about that bank- note yet? |
8137 | Has that fault cropped up lately, my dear? |
8137 | Have you finished school, Miss Steele? |
8137 | Have you learned your part yet? |
8137 | Have you lost your tongue? |
8137 | Have you no answer? |
8137 | Have you no idea who it can be? 8137 Have you seen the ice, Lance?" |
8137 | Have you young ladies no higher desire than to make the rabble laugh? |
8137 | He''s one of us fellows, is n''t he? |
8137 | Hester Grimes? |
8137 | Hester Grimes? |
8137 | How about his hat? |
8137 | How can we tell? |
8137 | How dare you, Dorothy Lockwood? |
8137 | How do you know? |
8137 | How goes the battle, Laura? |
8137 | How is your mother, dear? |
8137 | How was he to know that some of the investments poor father made would turn out badly, and that our income would be reduced to a mere pittance? 8137 How was that?" |
8137 | How was the funeral? |
8137 | Huh? |
8137 | I am quite sure we have taken in no counterfeits-- eh, Chet? |
8137 | I am wondering,said Mother Wit,"if we have always been fair to Prettyman Sweet? |
8137 | I guess this Sweet boy they tell about is a friend of yours, son? |
8137 | I presume, Miss Morse, you think I can not puzzle you? |
8137 | I want to know how Lance dares trespass upon Bobby''s domain of limericks? |
8137 | I wonder if Miss Carrington really sleeps at night? |
8137 | I wonder if we all are as well prepared? |
8137 | I wonder why? |
8137 | I wonder,he said,"if that man came from Osage, Ohio?" |
8137 | I wonder,said Laura,"if we do n''t expect too much of the teachers?" |
8137 | I would like to know why not? |
8137 | I''d like to know who we are to blame, then? |
8137 | I-- I thought if you''d make Chet pay only half of the fifty dollars, that perhaps you lost----"Well? |
8137 | If Hester plays that part, what are they going to do with her hands and feet? |
8137 | If we think we know anything, I ca n''t tell you,Chet declared"Billy? |
8137 | Indeed? |
8137 | Is father at home, Laura? |
8137 | Is he dead? |
8137 | Is he scared to tell the truth? |
8137 | Is it a professional Mr. Mann has engaged? |
8137 | Is it? 8137 Is n''t English the funny language?" |
8137 | Is n''t it just fine? |
8137 | Is n''t it pretty? 8137 Is n''t she splendid?" |
8137 | Is n''t that just like Gee Gee? |
8137 | Is she such a very strict disciplinarian? |
8137 | Is that so? |
8137 | Is that the girl who gave first- aid to the man on Market Street Saturday night? |
8137 | Is that your name? |
8137 | Is the man a criminal, do you think? |
8137 | It almost proves he is a stranger in town, does it not? |
8137 | Julius Caesar? 8137 Let''s see the bunnies?" |
8137 | Looks fishy, does n''t it? |
8137 | Lost his identity? |
8137 | Not Hester? |
8137 | Now what has he done? |
8137 | On the rear wheels? 8137 Out of the carnival?" |
8137 | Purt got it noised abroad that he was going to give a present to every fellow in his class-- didn''t he, Short? |
8137 | See? 8137 Shall I go along with you and see what she says?" |
8137 | She does seem interested in him, does n''t she? |
8137 | She never_ did_? |
8137 | Should I copy Pretty Sweet''s strut? |
8137 | Should n''t she be, Mr. Mann? 8137 So soon?" |
8137 | So you are the brave boy I''ve heard about, are you? |
8137 | Some little queen, is n''t she? |
8137 | Suppose the cops arrest him? |
8137 | Suppose we agree not to annoy her any more than we can help for the rest of the school year? |
8137 | Take it from me,said Bobby gruffly,"she''s just the meanest--""Margit?" |
8137 | The bank- note? |
8137 | The one the police say Purt ran down with his car? |
8137 | Then did you really find some trace of the car? |
8137 | Then my rhyme is a true bill? |
8137 | Then there is something in it? |
8137 | Then why does n''t he tell where he was at the time? |
8137 | Then why wo n''t Purt tell where he was? |
8137 | Then you do n''t believe Purt did it? |
8137 | Then you think I may relieve Chet''s mind? |
8137 | There''s the nine- ten express west"Who----What do you mean, young one? |
8137 | They will, of course,"And what will you boys tell them? |
8137 | This poor man''s money does n''t help him much, does it? 8137 To them, I suppose,"said Chet"But why do n''t you ask Miss Steele to join you girls in the play you are getting up?" |
8137 | Want to freeze us all? |
8137 | Well, what are suspicions? |
8137 | Well, what do you know about that? |
8137 | Well, what is it? |
8137 | Well, why not? |
8137 | Well? |
8137 | Were you not looking at Dorothy, Laura? |
8137 | Were you there to see that poor man? |
8137 | Were you there, too, to inquire about him? |
8137 | What about''poor me''? |
8137 | What are you going to throw in, Purt? 8137 What became of the other villain?" |
8137 | What can I possibly do for you? |
8137 | What can Lil mean? |
8137 | What did I tell you? |
8137 | What did I tell you? |
8137 | What did you say to Lil, Clara? |
8137 | What did you send the poor fish, Short? |
8137 | What do they mean? |
8137 | What do you know about it? |
8137 | What do you know about that? 8137 What do you know about that?" |
8137 | What do you mean? 8137 What do you mean? |
8137 | What do you mean? |
8137 | What do you mean? |
8137 | What do you mean? |
8137 | What do you mean? |
8137 | What do you mean? |
8137 | What do you mean? |
8137 | What do you mean? |
8137 | What do you suppose Miss Carrington has done? |
8137 | What do you think has happened? |
8137 | What do you think of the Steeles-- and all? |
8137 | What do you think, girls? |
8137 | What does it matter? 8137 What for?" |
8137 | What for? |
8137 | What has Billy really got against Purt Sweet? |
8137 | What has gone wrong? 8137 What has happened to her now?" |
8137 | What has that to do with Purt Sweet? |
8137 | What have you there? |
8137 | What is Gee Gee''s latest? |
8137 | What is it now? |
8137 | What is it? 8137 What is that you say, Laura Belding?" |
8137 | What is that? |
8137 | What is the difference? |
8137 | What is the matter with him? 8137 What is the matter with that bank- note? |
8137 | What is the matter, Mother Wit? |
8137 | What is the trouble between them? |
8137 | What kind of hardware are you trying to hang on me, Mother Wit? |
8137 | What luck, old top? |
8137 | What man? 8137 What of it? |
8137 | What sort of fox- and- goose chase did Short and Long take you and Lance away on? |
8137 | What then? |
8137 | What then? |
8137 | What wo n''t Laura Belding think of next? |
8137 | What would you like to have us play? |
8137 | What''s gone wrong, Laura? |
8137 | What''s that, Miss Smarty? |
8137 | What''s that? |
8137 | What''s that? |
8137 | What''s the matter with you, Short? |
8137 | What-- what do you mean, Miss Carrington? |
8137 | What----Just what do you mean? |
8137 | What? 8137 What?" |
8137 | What? |
8137 | Where does the courage come in? |
8137 | Where does the disgrace come in,pleaded poor Purt,"when I have n''t really done anything?" |
8137 | Where were you then? |
8137 | Who do you mean, Pa, by''the unfortunate''? |
8137 | Who ever heard of such a thing as a banknote being printed wrong unless it was a counterfeit? |
8137 | Who has a Perriton car, Short and Long? |
8137 | Who is hurt? |
8137 | Who is it? |
8137 | Who was the other fellow? |
8137 | Who-- who do you mean? |
8137 | Who? 8137 Who?" |
8137 | Who? |
8137 | Who? |
8137 | Why are you so sure? |
8137 | Why did n''t Short and Long tell him he was in the revolving door? |
8137 | Why does he want to act the donkey? |
8137 | Why me? |
8137 | Why not, Bess? |
8137 | Why not? 8137 Why not?" |
8137 | Why should you be? |
8137 | Why the''orrid hobservation about poor Purt? |
8137 | Why wo n''t she? |
8137 | Why, he is a regular''man of mystery,''is n''t he? |
8137 | Why, is n''t it strange? |
8137 | Why-- why----What do I know about it? |
8137 | Why? 8137 Will you, dear? |
8137 | Would it, Dorothy? |
8137 | Would n''t I cut a shine acting in a Greek play? 8137 Would you know him again?" |
8137 | Would you take Hester''s part in the masquerade? |
8137 | You are a stranger in town, are you not? |
8137 | You are very anxious to help Prettyman Sweet, are n''t you, Billy? |
8137 | You did n''t have a sudden attack of lockjaw, did you? |
8137 | You do n''t mean it? |
8137 | You doubt my willingness to prove my friendship? |
8137 | You know that Dorothy was answering for her sister? |
8137 | You mean Margaret Carrington? |
8137 | You mean to tell me he is nearly five years old and can walk no better than_ that?_exclaimed Bobby teasingly. |
8137 | You mean you would like to help him find his name and identity? |
8137 | You saw her answer for her sister, Miss Morse? |
8137 | You think he has proved himself a better fellow than you thought before? |
8137 | You will see him, too, wo n''t you, Janet? |
8137 | ''What d''you think they''re doin''--rehearsin''with him?''" |
8137 | ''What is a pseudonym?'' |
8137 | And I believe I recognize that very charming Lady Mystery-- do I not?" |
8137 | And how about that man who gave it to you? |
8137 | And if we do n''t make a heap of money for the Red Cross, after all the advertising we''ve had, what will folks think of us?" |
8137 | And look how he is carrying that gun, will you?" |
8137 | And suppose the police do make inquiries?" |
8137 | And the boys left us, did n''t they, to look up the car?" |
8137 | And there is the other-- see?" |
8137 | And what do you think?" |
8137 | And what do you think?" |
8137 | And you, Mrs. Sweet? |
8137 | Are n''t they twice as long as they used to be?" |
8137 | Are n''t you, Bobby?" |
8137 | Are you not a lady?" |
8137 | As he gazed the bell began to toll The hick stopped a passer- by and said:"''Tell me, why does the bell ring at this time of day?'' |
8137 | But do you think we can get her?" |
8137 | But he said afterward to his wife that evening:"What are we going to do with such children, Mother? |
8137 | But what became of my wealth? |
8137 | But whose rabbits were they before you bought them?" |
8137 | CHAPTER X BUT WHO IS HE? |
8137 | CHAPTER XIV CHAINS ON HIS WHEELS"How came you to meet Janet?" |
8137 | CHAPTER XVIII WHERE WAS PURT? |
8137 | CHAPTER XXIV MR. NEMO, OF NOWHERE"Who is it?" |
8137 | CHAPTER XXV IT IS ALL ROUNDED UP"Of course,"Lily Pendleton confessed,"I was at Hester''s party,""And Purt Sweet was there?" |
8137 | Can it be possible that Dan is dead?'' |
8137 | Can it be possible, girls? |
8137 | Can it be?" |
8137 | Did n''t it, Chet?" |
8137 | Did n''t you hear him? |
8137 | Did you boys find the guilty party?" |
8137 | Did you notice that? |
8137 | Do n''t the doctors think he will recover his memory?" |
8137 | Do n''t you know?" |
8137 | Do you know if he had any lodging in Centerport?" |
8137 | Do you know the latest?" |
8137 | Do you mind giving me your name and address?" |
8137 | Do you really mean it?" |
8137 | Do you suppose that for once she gives us credit for knowing a little something?" |
8137 | Do you wonder foreigners find English so difficult? |
8137 | Does n''t he always have them on in winter?" |
8137 | Does n''t it sound familiar to you?" |
8137 | Have they changed the hours? |
8137 | Have you those bank- notes they say you carried in your pocket when you were brought in?" |
8137 | How did he so suddenly become Janet Steele''s Uncle Jack?" |
8137 | I did, did I?" |
8137 | I suppose you three girls have a perfectly delightful time at your Central High?" |
8137 | I wonder if all his money is queer?" |
8137 | IV THE MYSTERY MAN V SAND IN THE GEARS VI THE BANK- NOTE VII SOMETHING EXCITING VIII THE FOREFRONT OF TROUBLE IX THE ICE CARNIVAL X BUT WHO IS HE? |
8137 | Indeed?" |
8137 | Is he blind?" |
8137 | Is n''t it awful, girls?" |
8137 | Is n''t that it, Laura?" |
8137 | Is n''t that just like you, Laura Belding?" |
8137 | Last Christmas, d''you know what Purt did?" |
8137 | May I speak to your class, Miss Carrington?" |
8137 | Now, is n''t that refined and beautiful?" |
8137 | Now, what do you know about that?" |
8137 | Or Jess? |
8137 | Or Lil?" |
8137 | Or am I seeing something that you folks do n''t?" |
8137 | Sharp?" |
8137 | She did refuse, did she?" |
8137 | She said to Jess and Laura, after they had parted from the other boys:"What do you know about that boy? |
8137 | Suppose he should be dead?" |
8137 | Tell us?" |
8137 | That old thing?" |
8137 | The fire was smothered, but what injury had it done to the boy? |
8137 | The man who drove the car, I mean, or the one who possibly took the nine- ten express out of town that night? |
8137 | The one who passed the bank- note on your son?" |
8137 | Then:"Shall we walk along with Janet?" |
8137 | Therefore, if he is not shielding some other person, what is he about?" |
8137 | To pay half his fine?" |
8137 | Tommy sat and ate, and ate, until the nurse said:"Tommy, do n''t you know that you are distending your stomach with all those sweets? |
8137 | Was it?" |
8137 | Was there a moment''s hesitation on the part of the Red Cross girl? |
8137 | What am I thinking of?" |
8137 | What could be more fitting for a leader of our costume parade? |
8137 | What did I tell you? |
8137 | What do they call you, son?" |
8137 | What do you know about that?" |
8137 | What do you mean-- you found a car?" |
8137 | What do you suppose she has suggested?" |
8137 | What do you suppose she wants to do?" |
8137 | What do you suppose? |
8137 | What do you think, Laura?" |
8137 | What do you want me to do?" |
8137 | What girl, however, does not love to"dress up and act?" |
8137 | What girl?" |
8137 | What happened, Bobby?" |
8137 | What made Billy believe Pretty Sweet ran the man down?" |
8137 | What shall we do?" |
8137 | What''s her name?" |
8137 | Whether Purt Sweet''s car had run down the man from Alaska or not, what did Hester know about it? |
8137 | Who did he go with?" |
8137 | Who is it-- Bobby? |
8137 | Who was that awful person who ran down the man last night? |
8137 | Who----?" |
8137 | Why did n''t you, Laura, suggest somebody else for the part, as long as Margit could n''t take it?" |
8137 | Will you help us out?" |
8137 | Will you not, Janet?" |
8137 | With my expensive family, do you think I can afford to lose fifty dollars? |
8137 | Wo n''t you come in? |
8137 | Would the play be a success? |
8137 | Would you spoil all our chances?" |
8137 | Would you want to?" |
8137 | You know about that man who had his leg broken on Market Street?" |
8137 | You know?" |
8137 | You remember? |
8137 | Your address?" |
8137 | Your aunt?" |
8137 | Your mother wo n''t mind my coming in this way, will she?" |
8137 | _ You_ never did it, Purt?" |
8137 | and"Who?" |
8137 | begged Janet"Sha''n''t I get tea for us?" |
8137 | cried Bobby boldly,"you are not really going to let that Hester Grimes act in this play, are you? |
8137 | cried Mrs. Sweet"Wo n''t you come and talk to me while we are waiting?" |
8137 | demanded Jess Morse, with disgust,"Knowing that Gee Gee is what she is, why could n''t Hester keep her own temper?" |
8137 | drawled Lily Pendleton,"how did you know Hester would cut up so mean?" |
8137 | exclaimed Bobby, when she saw Tommy slipping all over the icy sidewalk,"what is the matter with that boy?" |
8137 | exclaimed Chet Belding,"you are skidding yourself, are n''t you?" |
8137 | exclaimed Laura,"do you mean that you think of going away?" |
8137 | exclaimed Laura,"what ever do you mean?" |
8137 | gasped Chet,"if I''m nicked fifty dollars, how shall I ever be able to buy Christmas presents, or even give anything for the Red Cross drive?" |
8137 | gasped Laura suddenly,"tell me what this is coming up the hill? |
8137 | has he got the money himself?" |
8137 | how do you expect us to guess the vagaries of the Carrington mind?" |
8137 | murmured Nellie,"what would we do if Hester were twins?" |
8137 | not careless?" |
8137 | said Jess,"What about this nine- ten express Bobby spoke of?" |
8137 | she said,"did n''t you tell us that you loved to skate?" |
8137 | was he hurt badly?" |
8137 | why did n''t you think of the girl who helped you out before?" |
