32795And when did_ she_ come out?"
32795Are you so strong with the authorities as to brave that?"
32795Besides----""But the kids?
32795But in that one minute''s grace a man had entered the office who had not gone out again, and where could he be if not in that one closed room?
32795But--(was his mind leaving him?)
32795Could n''t we have one spark of light?"

32795Does she sing at her work?_""_ No; I''d fire her if she did.
32795Fellows,''she asked,''can you read this morning''s telegram?''
32795Fellows?"
32795For answer to this I said that I----"CHAPTER X"_ I have a scheme_""What?"

32795Now what''s that?_""_ Singing.
32795On a platform?"
32795Or is he, too, playing my game?"
32795Philip, can not you forgive me when you think that it was through my folly the secret of the safe became known?"
32795Send for Philip?
32795She just asked,''My father?
32795Stoughton?"
32795The one opening out of the general office directly opposite this?"
32795Then he faced her with the question:"Are you satisfied?"
32795Then, the boy being gone,"Which is the room?
32795There is no possibility of breaking into that safe by night, undetected by the watchman?"
32795They''re everywhere; and if one of them should have followed us----""Do you know what would happen to him?
32795Turning back to Miss Lee, he said kindly enough,"Will you let me have that bracelet?"
32795What about my father?
32795What did he mean by this?
32795What do you suppose he will do when he hears that you have been arrested for attempted burglary on your employer''s effects?"
32795What do you want from Mr. Stoughton''s safe?
32795What has happened to him?''
32795What have you done among you?"
32795What have you to say?"
32795What kind of safe is it?"
32795What should she do?
32795Which of his queers do you object to?"
32795Why should n''t he enter it again?
32795Why?
32795Would she never make her accustomed visit to that room?
32795You can see it, ca n''t you?"
32795how''s the old man?"
19695And how is she getting along these days, Francis?
19695And what eef you do not accep''le invite?
19695And yet,said another,"what else ought we to expect?
19695And you will be willing to act, I hope?
19695Can you tell me of a place in these gold fields where you wo n''t find a tough gang? 19695 Do n''t you see, my friend,"replied the minister,"that violence breeds violence?"
19695Do you think that is fair to either of us?
19695Hintzen has informed you that I''ve named you as one of my executors?
19695How has Miss Slocum been acting since the tragedy, Mat? 19695 How is the old man now?"
19695How''s that?
19695How''s the wild and woolly?
19695I think this is Mr. Thorn of Union City?
19695Is there no one to help me?
19695Know what I''ve been thinking?
19695Maybe you think my life''s been wasted, too?
19695Oh, a lady? 19695 Oh, why did he risk his life so?"
19695So this is what you call a civilized country? 19695 So?
19695Then you do n''t think you''ll go below with me?
19695Then,rather scornfully,"you think Will Cummins did wrong to defend his property?"
19695Westward for me,replied Keeler;"and you?"
19695What can a crowd of bachelors do if you drag a woman into the case?
19695What did the fool put up a fight for? 19695 What makes you think so?"
19695What news from Moore''s Flat?
19695What was that?
19695Where would you be, J. C. P. Collins, if I had n''t killed him? 19695 Who do you suppose the robbers were?"
19695Who is that?
19695Who is the guilty man?
19695Whose is this?
19695Why callest thou me good? 19695 Why, you''re a regular preacher, ai n''t you?
19695You got my letter?
19695--And his soul?
19695A guilty conscience, perhaps?
19695After a pause Mat continued:"When the robber was going over the baggage he came to Mr. Cummins''valise, and asked,''Whose is this?''
19695Among so many how could he distinguish the criminals?
19695And do n''t I know just what happened?"
19695And what did He really teach?
19695And what do you suppose she wanted me to do?"
19695And why did they leave the stage at North Bloomfield?
19695And, as his strength Failed him at length, He met a pilgrim shadow--"Shadow,"said he,"Where can it be-- This land of Eldorado?"
19695As he formulated the question, it was,"The girl or the gold?"
19695Been caught stealing again, I suppose?"
19695Before leaving him one of the men asked:"Mr. Palmer, do you know us?"
19695But I could n''t buy her a clear conscience, could I?
19695But do n''t you think Hintzen and Haggerty ought to have a list of your property?
19695But had he not heard their pleas with patience, just as the old man had directed?
19695But he only said:"Surely, you are a Christian?"
19695But the return trip to- morrow?
19695But this leads to a further question, namely, the nature of Christ-- was Christ human or divine?
19695But what about Keeler here, and me?"
19695But what is that to your affection for your partner, John Keeler?
19695But why attempt to outline the wonders of that famous valley?
19695But why should he work so?
19695By the way, what''s become of my old flame back there?"
19695Could he depend upon Cummins and the Chinaman?
19695Could not a protecting Providence have saved his friend?
19695Could that coarse and bloated countenance belong to the fastidious and pleasure- loving Collins?
19695Did He not caution us to look not to Himself but to God?
19695Did you ever think, Mr. Brown, what extremes of climate we have right here in Nevada County?
19695Did you notice any suspicious circumstance when you rode down from Eureka South the other day?"
19695Do n''t suppose you ever heard of J. C. P. Collins of Nevada County, California?"
19695Do you have any idea who the robbers were?"
19695For if common scoundrels are to be executed what severer punishment is left for the more crafty villain?
19695Had he lost his soul, then?
19695How could he ever see the girl again?
19695How could he have refused to answer the summons?
19695How do you figure it out?"
19695How does the grub here compare with what we used to get at Carter''s boarding- house?"
19695How else explain his shabby clothes, his old rubber boots, that were out at the toes, his life of toil and self- denial?
19695How''s that?"
19695I asked you, how is that little girl?
19695I suppose you have given him a list of your property?"
19695Is it any wonder, living in that lawless country, that Robert Palmer became almost a recluse?
19695Is it surprising that the decision of J. C. P. Collins was similar to that of other Californians?
19695Or had he been simply unfortunate?
19695Or was it felt that the recital of them did not tend to boom the great State of California?
19695Or was it the traveler''s overwrought imagination?
19695Palmer?"
19695Remember how he caught you stealing that Chinaman''s dust?
19695Remember our walk to Chipp''s Flat, the last time you were here?
19695Should she run away, should she use a woman''s wiles in self- defense, or should she confide in this handsome man?
19695Similar to Cummins'', for example?
19695Sweet on Mat Bailey, is she?
19695The Californian laughed heartily-- rather too heartily, Keeler thought; and then inquired:"Going East or West?"
19695The Girl or the Gold?
19695The girl or the gold?
19695The girl or the gold?
19695Was he, Keeler, on a fool''s errand to San Francisco?
19695Was it because he foresaw that the ten thousand dollar reward would be claimed?
19695Was not Francis almost a son to him?
19695Were n''t the executors acting"at all times and under all circumstances to the best of their judgment?"
19695Were such things too common to excite interest?
19695What amount was the old man about to distribute?
19695What does it profit a man to gain the wealth of California and lose his own soul?
19695What more could you ask?
19695What news from Moore''s Flat?"
19695What right has the State to take so precious a thing as human life, even though the life be that of a hardened criminal?
19695What was there in it for him?
19695What would California have been without Chinese labor?
19695When is the wedding to be?"
19695Why had he ever left it, to risk life and honor in the pursuit of riches?
19695Why should he, Mat Bailey, get mixed up in other men''s affairs?
19695Why, man, was n''t I there?
19695Will you do it?"
19695he thought,"how could he say things that would hurt this lovely creature?"
19695or was it for some other reason?
19695thought Mamie,"does Mr. Francis know about my trouble?
17762And the girl,asked Manning,"what became of her?"
17762Are you quite sure about that?
17762Are you sure about this?
17762Ca n''t you introduce me?
17762Can I do anything for you this morning?
17762Can you describe him?
17762Can you tell me the name of this hackman?
17762Can you tell the spot where you disposed of this sack?
17762Did Mr. Pearson recognize you on that occasion?
17762Did Mr. Pearson tell you who he was, or explain his presence there at that time?
17762Did he mention any particular point on the railroad that he wanted a ticket for?
17762Did he say what he intended doing there, or whether he was going on out to Denver?
17762Did he say who assisted him in this robbery?
17762Did her husband go away, too?
17762Did his wife go with him?
17762Do the people in the house know where he is?
17762Do you feel confident that you would be able to identify him, if you were to see him again?
17762Do you know Tod?
17762Do you know her?
17762Do you know whether he is in town now?
17762Do you know which way he was going?
17762Do you know which way he went?
17762Do you know who the man was that he went away with?
17762Do you think these stage robbers, as a rule, are disposed to kill anybody?
17762Does she think they have anything to do with her?
17762Ever had any adventure with them yourself?
17762Excuse me,interrupted the detective,"but were you present at the time the robbery occurred?"
17762Has he been here recently?
17762Have they separated?
17762Have you any idea where he was going?
17762Have you any idea which way he went?
17762Have you ever been bothered with robbers or highwaymen along this route?
17762Have you had breakfast, sir? 17762 Have you said anything to Mr. Pearson about this?"
17762He appeared to be doubtful, and simply said,''Is that so?''
17762How did you extricate yourself from this dilemma?
17762How long did Duncan remain in town at that time?
17762How long did he stay here?
17762How much money did Duncan have at that time?
17762How so?
17762I may say, however, that the man we came for was William R. Amos; do you know anything about such a person?
17762In what respect?
17762Is Edwards stopping here now?
17762Is Mr. Edwards residing with you?
17762Let us hear it, wo n''t you?
17762May I ask who you were waiting to meet?
17762Mr. Pearson,inquired the detective, after the young man had concluded,"do you remember having seen either of those men before?"
17762Now tell us how much money you took from the bank, and how it was divided?
17762Now, what do you desire first?
17762Surely, you have no reference to my friend, Newton Edwards?
17762That''s the case with most of you, is n''t it?
17762That''s very strange, is n''t it?
17762Well, has he been here within two weeks?
17762Well, he was on quite a spree, I believe-- and so he went to Des Moines, did he?
17762Well, sir, what can I do for you to- day?
17762What became of the other two?
17762What do you mean?
17762What do you mean?
17762What do you mean?
17762What do you think of this?
17762What has become of the young lady?
17762What is it?
17762What kind of a suit did he get?
17762What makes you think so?
17762What makes you think so?
17762What would you have done if they had made the attempt?
17762What''s his first name-- Bob?
17762When did you see them together again?
17762Where are we going?
17762Where did you and Duncan separate after the robbery?
17762Where is Mr. Duncan now, do you know?
17762Which one of the men attacked you?
17762Who have you got?
17762Who was this man whom you procured to help you?
17762Why should he seek to conceal this?
17762Will you be kind enough to inform me,said Robert, when this was completed,"how you come to have so much money about you?"
17762Would you object to giving me a small piece of it as a sample? 17762 Would you object to telling me what they are?"
17762You are making an early start, I see; are you busy?
17762You are quite sure about this?
177621 50 How Could He Help it?
17762After he had finished, William inquired:"Was there no other sack or sacks than those you have mentioned as being in the valise when you threw it away?
17762After he had finished, he turned to me, and laughingly said:"''The devil himself would n''t know me in this rig, would he?''
17762After sitting quietly smoking for a few moments, he turned to Robert and asked:"Mr. Pinkerton, how did you discover that I was in McDonald?"
17762At length he turned to Robert and asked:"Will I be able to escape if I tell what I know?"
17762But we are looking for a young man who was here a few days ago, and perhaps you can help us?"
17762Can we go somewhere where we will not be interrupted?"
17762Could it be possible that the honest- faced miner had played him false, and designedly thrown him off the scent?
17762Did you not dispose of some before you parted with the satchel?
17762Do you know anything about him?"
17762Gross?"
17762Has Mary Crilly captivated your senses?"
17762I suppose your fire department here is composed entirely of volunteers?"
17762Kimball$ 1 75 Beatrice Cenci-- From the Italian 1 50 Was He Successful?
17762Mechanically Duncan did as he was directed, and then turning to Manning, he inquired in a low, suppressed tone:"What do you want me for?"
17762Might not the saloon- keeper at Bozeman have given him the proper direction of Duncan''s flight toward the Yellowstone park?
17762Stepping quietly up to the young man, the detective said, carelessly:"Your name is Bob King, I believe?"
17762The face of the little tailor was again wreathed in smiles, as he delightedly inquired:"Do you mean Duncan, the traveling man from Des Moines?"
17762The others had now come forward, and as soon as he could recover from his astonishment, the old farmer cried out:"What does this mean?"
17762Where was he now?
17762Why, what''s the matter?"
17762and was he not now miles away from all pursuit, and perhaps by this time fully aware that he was being followed?
17762exclaimed Mr. Silby, starting to his feet, and with a tremor in his voice, which told of inward agitation;"you do not mean that you suspect Eugene?"
17762said the lady,"this gentleman, I think, was in the same business, and perhaps he may be the one you knew?"
22155Are you crazy?
22155Are you sure,said she,"that the letter is in your husband''s handwriting?"
22155Are you the agent of Jones''s Express?
22155Are you, indeed?
22155Barkeeper, you haf any lager got? 22155 Bin sellin''niggers, eh?"
22155But what have I done?
22155But what makes him charge me with receiving improper attentions from De Forest? 22155 By- the- by,"asked White,"does he ever go to see the fancy girls?"
22155Certainly,exclaimed White;"do you think I am a fool?
22155Could you not manage to have the money exchanged for me without my being known in the transaction?
22155Do you wish to buy any books?
22155Give me a ride?
22155Going out to Jenkintown?
22155Has n''t she? 22155 Have yer lost summat?"
22155Have you been far South?
22155How dare you talk to me in this way?
22155How do you do, boys?
22155How will you do that?
22155Hush,White would whisper,"how many times must I tell you that walls may have ears?"
22155I have not thought of it, have you?
22155Josh., have you been moving the money?
22155Mrs. Maroney,said he,"will you come to the garden this evening?"
22155Mudder Beenk''s?
22155No, do n''t go yet; have a little brandy? 22155 O ladies, what''s the matter?
22155Porter? 22155 So soon?"
22155There must be something up,thought he,"or she would not be in such a hurry to get home; what can it be?"
22155Wal stranger, whar yar bound?
22155Wal, stranger, whar yar bound?
22155Well, let''s go there; will you?
22155Whar are yar gwine? 22155 What are his prospects for getting out?"
22155What brought that Madam Imbert here to- night? 22155 What do you say to Jackson, Mississippi?
22155What do you suppose I could be doing at your house?
22155What do you think of it?
22155What do you want me to undertake?
22155What have I done to deserve arrest?
22155What kind of money was it the company lost?
22155What sort of a man is he?
22155What''s that?
22155What''s the matter, White? 22155 What''s the matter?
22155When do you expect the man who exchanges your money? 22155 Where have you been all this time?
22155Where is Stemples?
22155Where were you?
22155Where?
22155Who are his friends?
22155Who said you had?
22155Who said you had?
22155Who vas das?
22155Who''s there?
22155Why not?
22155Why, what do you mean?
22155Will you?
22155Yes, but suppose she wo n''t give up the money? 22155 Yes, indeed?
22155Yes, yes,said she,"but who knows White?
22155You ca n''t tell who the spies are here,White would reply,"do you see those prisoners?
22155You have heard of Sanford? 22155 ''What do I know about White?'' 22155 A smart, shrewd fellow who would pick up a money package if he saw it lying handy, and dispose of it?
22155Ai n''t you going to drink up?"
22155Are yar a through passenger, or whar are yar gwine?"
22155Are you playing false to me?
22155Are you such a fool as not to know he is a tool of the Adams, and that you are acting with him?
22155As he and White were walking in the hall, he said to White:"White, I wonder if it would not be a good move to try some game in my case?
22155But if we made the attempt and failed, what would be the consequences?
22155But see here, do n''t you think it best to get some of the stolen money to use in this case?"
22155But what class was he to mix with?
22155But what good would it do?
22155But what had they been doing at Alderman Williams''s?
22155But what would it be?
22155But what_ did he wish_?
22155But which one?
22155Ca n''t you find some way to get into the cellar?
22155Come and have a drink?"
22155Come and have something?"
22155Could it be possible that the company had suspicions of the trunk and were holding it as a bait to draw me out?
22155Could you not get him here at once?
22155Did he want a man to mix with the rough element, or to pass among gentlemen?
22155Did n''t she rave though?"
22155Did you get your money changed?"
22155Do n''t you know?"
22155Do n''t you see?"
22155Do n''t you think you could manage to get possession of it?
22155Do you know that De Forest is a very fine fellow?
22155Do you know this Cox?
22155Do you love me?
22155Do you?"
22155Does Chase board at the Exchange?"
22155Have you received a package for--------?"
22155He had displayed consummate ability in every movement he had so far made, and was it at all likely that he had lost his cunning?
22155He knew that he could get plenty of carriages in a few minutes, but by that time where would Maroney be?
22155He met me in Philadelphia a day or two after and said with much feeling:"Why, Pinkerton, why_ do_ you keep watch of such a woman?
22155He whispered to Shanks:"What the d----l is the matter with Maroney?
22155Hellow, Josh., that you?"
22155How had they settled that?
22155I then said:"You remember Jules Imbert, of Bills of Exchange notoriety?"
22155If I were checking off packages of such large amounts I think I should be likely to look at them, do n''t you?
22155If we were to get an impression of the lock Shanks could have them made, could n''t he?"
22155If you are in trouble and feel the need of a friend, why not rely on me?
22155In five or ten minutes, who should come along and meet him but Mrs. Maroney, shadowed by Green?
22155Is n''t it strange, White, that I have taken such a liking to you?
22155It is rather late for you to be out, is it not?"
22155It was indeed a beautiful scene, and who could more thoroughly appreciate the beautiful than Simon?
22155It was the season of love, and who could be more completely"in season"than was De Forest?
22155It will never do for me to return without Mr. Suggs; what will my niggers think of it?
22155Let me see, who was it her sister married down South?
22155Maroney would remark,"But no one heard?"
22155Mine frient,"continued he, turning to the hackman,"your peesness ish goot?
22155Nein?
22155No?"
22155Now what am I to do?
22155Now, White, who do you think stole the fifty thousand dollars?"
22155One day Maroney said to White,"I''m tired, let''s take a turn in the hall?"
22155One day Mrs. Maroney said to Madam Imbert:"Would n''t you like to go out west somewhere and settle down for a while?"
22155One day he said:"White, I wonder if the Express Company would not settle the matter with me?
22155She has a sister there, has n''t she?"
22155She rose and closed the door, and then burst out with,"Why, Madam Imbert, have you ever heard of so foolish a man as my husband?
22155She suddenly turned to Madam Imbert and asked:"Would you be willing to run away with me?
22155Strange indeed, thought Roch, what can he want with that old trunk?
22155Suppose White gets the money; how do I know but that he will run away with it and leave us to suffer without getting any of the benefit?
22155The German took in all that was going on, but who cared for him?
22155The moments seemed to have turned to hours; when would they ever reach the city?
22155The question now arose: What shall we do with Maroney?
22155The question now was How can I find the money?
22155The two negroes at once recognized each other, and Roch, in his broken way, said:"Vel, poys, vat vill you haf?"
22155The widow now interposed, and in plaintive tone said,"But, sir, what am I to do?
22155Then, pointing to some dirt on the Madam''s dress-- which had come from the cellar-- she exclaimed:"What''s that on your dress?"
22155There was no denying but that something had happened to give him more courage, and it flashed through my mind: Has he got the money?
22155They made several trips, conversing on general topics, when Maroney lowered his voice and said:"White, could n''t you and I get out of this jail?"
22155Was any one with you, down here, while sister was putting the children to bed?"
22155Were you ever in Chicago, Madam Imbert?"
22155What answer should I make to the dispatch?
22155What could be more natural than his selecting her and pouring into her ear the details of his crime?
22155What could we do?
22155What did Cox know about suffering, or of the steps her husband found it necessary to take in order to effect his release?
22155What do you do with your money, Madam Imbert?"
22155What do you say to going down to the restaurant with me, and having some oysters and a bottle of champagne to wash them down?"
22155What does it matter?
22155What does it mean?
22155What made you go up stairs and leave her here all alone?"
22155What must I do?
22155What was he doing here?"
22155What will not money do in this country?
22155What would have been Maroney''s feelings if he could have seen his wife and her gay cavalier?
22155What would have been his feelings if he could have looked through about a mile of brick and mortar to where White was snoring in bed?
22155What would he now not have given to be back in his old position, free from the taint of crime, free to do as he wished?
22155When I came to her she eagerly asked:"Is the money all right?"
22155When can you send him?"
22155Where did you hide it?"
22155Where is she going?"
22155White casually said:"What sort of a man is Chase?
22155White scanned its contents, and said:"I suppose this is sufficient, but the question still remains: will she obey it?
22155Who can it be that is writing these reports from Jenkintown?"
22155Who could be a safer person than his mistress?
22155Who could have spread the news?
22155Who is this man you have with you?
22155Who knows where De Forest comes from?
22155Why are you so foolish?
22155Why could he not trust White to help him?
22155Why did he not write and consult me on the subject?
22155Why have you never told me about this man?
22155Why is Maroney held a prisoner in the North, when he should be tried before a jury of his fellow Southerners?
22155Why would it not be a good plan to go to some place in the South?
22155Will you?"
22155Wo n''t it be a good joke when McGibony nabs him and finds the money on his person?
22155Wo n''t you stay down and watch the house, while I put the children to bed?
22155Wonder what she''ll do thar, wid no niggers to confusticate?
22155Would you have stolen it if you had been in my place?"
22155You are a keen fellow; ca n''t you help me when you get out?
22155You could then find your friend, and he would be willing to exchange the money for two or three thousand dollars-- wouldn''t he?
22155You know the old saying:''Walls have ears?''"
22155You may be of great use to me, will you help me if you can?"
22155You must wait here; do n''t you know you should not leave the house unguarded at this time?"
22155are you sick?"
22155do n''t you call that a splendid cigar?"
22155do you see any one coming?"
22155exclaimed the barkeeper, turning hastily around,"a rat?"
22155hav yer?"
22155have you bad news?"
22155have you?"
22155muttered Maroney, as the thought flashed through his mind,"can he really suspect me of having stolen the money?"
22155said he;"would you trust such matters on paper?
22155said the driver, in a patronizing tone,"yar parspectin'', are yar?"
22155well, how do you know but that some of them are spies?
22155what will the Adams Express say then?
22155what''s the matter, Tom?"
22155where does he come from?
22155who is he?"
22155yelled the deputy;"do n''t you know you are interfering with an officer of the law?"
22155yelled up from the cellar:"That you, Rivers?
22155you have found them out, have you?"
22155you here?
38981A brother?
38981A reporter?
38981A story?
38981And I suppose you know that she loves me, in spite of your objections?
38981And I think you said two shots were fired at the thief?
38981And Miss Meredith?
38981And if I say that Mr. Herbert happens to be a friend of mine?
38981And is he a nice young man?
38981And no other woman there wore such a dress?
38981And that you and Mr. Meredith are practically of the same build?
38981And that you are breaking her heart by your mutton- headed objection to me?
38981And the Girl? 38981 And the Girl?"
38981And the casket?
38981And the other machine?
38981And this girl was dressed like a Western girl?
38981And you, Blanton?
38981And you?
38981And-- what else?
38981Anything you want to say?
38981Are those lights still there?
38981Are you hurt?
38981Are you positive the letter is in your son''s handwriting?
38981Are you the man who stole the gold plate?
38981Are you_ trying_ to convict me?
38981Arrest you?
38981As I understand it,the scientist went on, not heeding the question,"you did not believe Herbert guilty of the first theft?"
38981Back or front?
38981Book agent?
38981Business good?
38981But could n''t you?
38981But how came it in your possession?
38981But what can we do?
38981But you did love me-- once?
38981Ca n''t you go a little slower?
38981Ca n''t you think of a hotel or boarding- house near by?
38981Can you prove it in a court of law?
38981Certainly before unmasking- time,she said,"because-- because I think there is someone here who knows, or suspects, that----""Suspects what?"
38981Clever, was n''t it?
38981Dead?
38981Detective?
38981Diamond rings?
38981Dick Herbert, explain to me, please, what you are doing with that gold plate?
38981Dick, are you awake?
38981Dick, is that you?
38981Did Mr. Herbert say anything when arrested?
38981Did Mr. Meredith arrive from Baltimore?
38981Did he give any reason for his refusal to say anything?
38981Did it ever happen to occur to you, Mr. Herbert, that Harry Meredith and his father are precisely of the same build?
38981Did it have anything to do with theft?
38981Did n''t you find anything at all about the premises?
38981Did she mention my name?
38981Did the injury to your arm,he went on after the approved manner of attorney for the prosecution,"prevent you going to the ball?"
38981Did the person who''phoned give you a name?
38981Did you come in the auto?
38981Did you get an invitation to the Randolph ball?
38981Did you get it?
38981Did you go?
38981Did you notice if the card presented at the door by the Burglar on the evening of the masked ball at Seven Oaks bore a name?
38981Did you notice the handwriting on the card the Burglar gave you?
38981Did you see her?
38981Did your father ever happen to tell you_ why_ he objects to my attentions to you?
38981Do you believe me guilty?
38981Do you believe that I stole the plate?
38981Do you deny that you got it?
38981Do you happen to know where she was?
38981Do you happen to know,he asked,"if Miss Meredith attended the Randolph ball at Seven Oaks on Thursday evening?"
38981Do you have any idea where Miss Meredith was?
38981Do you know that he was wounded?
38981Do you know the young gentleman?
38981Do you know where Miss Dorothy Meredith is?
38981Do you know who_ was_ in the automobile?
38981Do you now believe him guilty?
38981Do you really believe he is the man who came here as the Burglar?
38981Do you really want to go with me?
38981Do you remember the name?
38981Do you_ know_ he_ is_ there?
38981Do you_ know_ that?
38981Does it happen that you have as cleverly traced her?
38981Does your arm pain you?
38981Does your daughter know anything of that affair?
38981Dollie, do n''t you love me?
38981Eavesdropping, eh?
38981Eloped with her?
38981Except what?
38981Fixed? 38981 Guess you never got caught in a pickle like this before?"
38981Had n''t thought of it?
38981Had n''t we better go back to the village and see a doctor?
38981Had n''t you seen me?
38981Has he said anything since?
38981Have you been reading the papers?
38981Have you seen Miss Meredith again?
38981Heard anything from Miss Meredith?
38981Heard the news?
38981Her?
38981How about the jewelry that was stolen from your other guests?
38981How can I when I helped you run away with the horrid stuff?
38981How dare he come here? 38981 How dare you, sir?"
38981How did he die?
38981How did you ever come to hit on a costume like that?
38981How do I know it? 38981 How do you know that?"
38981How long has Mr. Meredith been there?
38981How long has he been dead?
38981How long was I knocked out?
38981How many persons do you suppose actually attended the ball?
38981How much is it worth to you to know if Miss Meredith went to the masked ball?
38981How much is it worth?
38981How much?
38981How much?
38981How-- how long,she asked,"have you been a-- a-- a-- kleptomaniac?"
38981How-- how-- did you happen to know her name?
38981Hunh?
38981Hunh?
38981Husband beat you?
38981I do n''t suppose Mr. Herbert explained how he got the wound?
38981I do n''t suppose it possible that Miss Meredith has returned to Baltimore?
38981I do n''t suppose there''s any doubt in your mind of my affection for your daughter?
38981I do n''t suppose you''ve heard anything further from Miss Meredith?
38981I mean, do you recall if it was different in any way from the handwriting on the other cards?
38981I merely wanted to inquire if it would be permissible for me to see that cushion?
38981I ought to throw you down the stairs, but-- what is it?
38981I prefer that you keep it,she insisted firmly,"for, besides, I shall have to ask you to let me have fare back to the city-- a couple of dollars?
38981I presume that, on its return by express, Mr. Randolph ordered the plate placed in the small room as before?
38981I presume, Miss Meredith,he said solemnly,"that the maid informed you of my identity?"
38981I understand, by the way, that one of your men took a leather cushion from the automobile in which the thieves escaped on the night of the ball?
38981If Doctor Walpole should dress a wound and should later, under oath, point out its exact location, you would believe him?
38981If Hatch knew it why did n''t he tell me?
38981If I pledge you my word of honour that I told you the truth?
38981If it had been would you have noticed it?
38981If you''ll tell me something about Miss Meredith-- who she is and all that?
38981In a hurry?
38981Indeed?
38981Is Mrs. Greyton in?
38981Is everything ready?
38981Is he here now?
38981Is it necessary to go so awfully fast?
38981Is it really and truly you?
38981Is n''t it a fact that you did intend to elope with her on Thursday evening?
38981Is that all?
38981Is that correct?
38981Is that enough?
38981Is there anything I can do?
38981It does n''t happen,he went on,"that, by any possible chance, you know anything about it, does it?"
38981It was a detective-- you know that?
38981It''s perfectly asinine to suppose that_ she_ had anything to do with either theft, do n''t you think?
38981Just what do you know of this affair?
38981Kissed me?
38981Left no clew, of course?
38981Loaded?
38981Make to order, I s''pose?
38981May I ask his present address?
38981May I ask if you happen to know Richard Herbert?
38981May I ask where_ you_ were last Thursday night?
38981May I ask your son''s address?
38981May I ask, Mr. Meredith,he began,"how many sons you have?"
38981May I ask,he inquired with pronounced emphasis on the personal pronoun,"why you want to know?"
38981May I inquire,she asked, after she recovered her breath,"the cause of this-- this levity?"
38981May I see Miss Meredith for a few minutes?
38981May I see your revolver?
38981May I send a card to her?
38981Miss Meredith,he said soothingly after a pause,"will you admit or deny that you ever heard of the Randolph robbery?"
38981Miss Meredith?
38981Miss Meredith?
38981Mr. Hatch called yet?
38981Mr. Hatch, what is that name I asked you to get?
38981Mr. Herbert confessed to you that he was with you in the automobile, did n''t he?
38981Mr. Herbert here?
38981My bill, please?
38981No, nor would you inform me of the nature of the evidence against him in addition to the jewels and plate found in his possession?
38981Not very well?
38981Nothing but the gold plate was found?
38981Now Cunningham?
38981Now, Mr. Cunningham, may I ask if the Burglar''s back was toward you when you fired?
38981Now, Mr. Hatch,asked The Thinking Machine,"just what is known of this second theft of the gold plate?"
38981Now, Mr. Mallory,continued The Thinking Machine at last,"one of your men shot twice at the Burglar in the automobile, as I understand it?"
38981Now, Mr. Mallory,the scientist went on calmly,"do you happen to know Dr. Clarence Walpole?"
38981Now, Mr. Randolph, how many invitations were issued for the ball?
38981Now, look here, Dick,expostulated Hatch,"do n''t you want to make some statement of your connection with this affair?
38981Now, madam?
38981Now, why did Mr. Herbert confess to Miss Meredith that he stole the plate?
38981Of course, then, you''ve seen the stories about the Randolph robbery?
38981Oh, if they are watching us what shall we do?
38981Oh, is n''t that delightful?
38981Oh, would n''t that please Mallory?
38981Oh, you_ did_ do it then?
38981Only eleven pieces of the plate were first stolen, you said?
38981Paregoric?
38981Personal matter?
38981Prove it? 38981 Proven innocent?"
38981Sewing- machines?
38981She is not at home?
38981Some time ago she met a man named Herbert-- Richard Herbert, I think, and----"Dick Herbert?
38981Something in a bag?
38981Suppose I should confess that I did?
38981Suppose it had been just a freak of mine, and I had intended to-- to return the stuff, as has been done?
38981Suppose now, just suppose, that we three get together and tell each other the truth for a change, the whole truth, and see what will happen?
38981Suppose,he whispered,"suppose I should confess that I did take it?"
38981The bag is all right, I suppose?
38981The bag with the stuff-- the one I threw in the car when we started?
38981The bag?
38981The casket?
38981They''re chasing us, are n''t they?
38981This is n''t any silly joke?
38981This is the revolver you used?
38981Thought what?
38981Thursday night, perhaps?
38981Was Harry Meredith masked when he entered this room last Thursday night?
38981Was Miss Meredith the girl in the automobile?
38981Was he a particular friend of yours in college?
38981Was he masked?
38981Was it a man or a woman talking?
38981Was it a pistol shot?
38981We will have to go in a few minutes, wo n''t we?
38981Well, Downey?
38981Well, what about it all, anyhow?
38981Well, what did you find out?
38981Well, what of it?
38981Well?
38981Well?
38981Well?
38981Well?
38981Well?
38981Well?
38981What about her?
38981What am I doing with it?
38981What are the questions?
38981What are you doing with it?
38981What business of yours is it, anyway?
38981What could have caused you to do such a thing?
38981What did she wear?
38981What did you do with the list of invited guests?
38981What do you know of any woman?
38981What does he look like?
38981What gold plate?
38981What is it all about?
38981What is it, please?
38981What is it?
38981What is the nature of the injury?
38981What kind of stuff?
38981What luck did_ you_ have?
38981What luck did_ you_ have?
38981What next?
38981What sort of a confession?
38981What was her appearance?
38981What you got in the bag?
38981What''s in it?
38981What''s the matter?
38981What''s the matter?
38981What''s this about the bail- bond?
38981What?
38981What?
38981What_ do_ you sell?
38981When did she return?
38981When was it, please?
38981Where are those cards, Curtis?
38981Where are you?
38981Where did you get that idea?
38981Where has she been?
38981Where is it?
38981Where is she?
38981Where is the car?
38981Where is the drug store?
38981Where is your son now? 38981 Where is your son?"
38981Where was the wound, please?
38981Where was the wound?
38981Where were you on the evening of the masked ball?
38981Who are you, Mr. Van Dusen?
38981Who fired them, please?
38981Who is it, Blair?
38981Who the deuce is Van Dusen?
38981Who then,he demanded after a couple of gulps--"who do you say is the thief if Herbert is not?"
38981Whose brother? 38981 Why did n''t you mention the jewelry at first?
38981Why did you disappear?
38981Why did you see him?
38981Why do n''t you say something?
38981Why you did_ not_ meet me?
38981Why you did_ not_ meet me?
38981Why you did_ not_ meet me?
38981Why, Dick, what is that?
38981Why-- yes, but I-- I----"And could n''t you ever love me again?
38981Why?
38981Will you admit that you saw him?
38981Will you deny that you saw Richard Herbert on the evening of the masked ball?
38981Will you give me your permission to see her here and now, if she will consent?
38981Will you inform me, then, in the interest of justice, where you were on the evening of the Randolph ball?
38981Will you name the cause of the trouble you and Meredith had in Harvard?
38981Would it be possible, Miss Meredith,the even voice went on,"to convince_ you_ of Mr. Herbert''s innocence?"
38981Would you be satisfied?
38981Would you believe him under oath?
38981Would you mind telling me if any of the jewelry you found in Mr. Herbert''s possession has been identified?
38981Would you mind telling me just what makes you think I got it?
38981Would you remember it if you saw it or heard it again?
38981You are certain there was only_ one_ man at that ball dressed as a Burglar?
38981You are making no mistake?
38981You did n''t see her there?
38981You do n''t know if the package was there when you went in?
38981You have the bullet?
38981You know she did n''t take the plate?
38981You know that a man and a woman are accused of and sought for the theft?
38981You know, too, that Richard Herbert went to that ball in Burglar''s garb and that you went there dressed as a Western girl?
38981You mean you-- you-- you_ stole_ it?
38981You probably knew that he was wounded and possibly either aided in dressing the wound-- as any woman would-- or else saw him dress it himself?
38981You recognised him, then, by something he said or wore?
38981You still do n''t believe him guilty?
38981You were speaking of Miss Dorothy Meredith, were n''t you?
38981You will admit that you know the man was in Burglar''s garb, and that the woman was dressed in a Western costume?
38981You will not believe what I tell you?
38981You would n''t have gone with any other man?
38981You_ know_ he was with you?
38981You_ know_ it?
38981You_ know_ that only two shots were fired?
38981Your casket of jewels was found among the stolen goods in his possession?
38981_ How_ do you know it?
38981410 State Street for a package?"
38981A brother?
38981A wound caused by a pistol- bullet?
38981After a while, from below, he heard the tinkle of a bell and Blair entered with light tread:"Beg pardon, sir, are you asleep?"
38981Am I right?"
38981By something he said or wore?
38981By the way, I suppose you know where I came from, eh?"
38981Can you direct me to a quiet hotel or boarding- house where I might stay?"
38981Could you tell me, please, where a lady, unattended, might get a night''s lodging somewhere near here?"
38981Cunningham?"
38981Detective Mallory doesn''t----""When and where was Mr. Herbert arrested?"
38981Did her father shoot him?
38981Did she shoot him?
38981Did you get it all right?"
38981Did you notice the card she gave you?"
38981Do you know that idea keeps coming to me and wo n''t go away?"
38981Finally she compromised by blushing radiantly at the memory of certain lingering kisses she had bestowed upon-- upon-- Dick Herbert?
38981Greyton?"
38981Had Doctor Walpole recently dressed a wound for Mr. Herbert?
38981Hatch?"
38981Have you met him?"
38981He asked the first question with trepidation:"Mr. Randolph, can you give me the address of Miss Dorothy Meredith?"
38981He was hurt and----""Who is it, Blair?"
38981Herbert?"
38981How are you, anyhow?"
38981How did Mr. Herbert know this brother?
38981How do you feel?"
38981How had he recognised him as Harry Meredith?
38981How long has she been gone?...
38981Huh?...
38981If I do n''t see her---- By the way, did her father arrive from Baltimore?"
38981If at home, would he not go to the nearest physician?
38981Is that to stand forever?"
38981Is there no way I can place myself right in your eyes?"
38981Is_ he_ in?"
38981It was a costume affair, I suppose?"
38981Merritt?...
38981Missing?...
38981Now that''s a silly state of affairs, is n''t it?"
38981Now what does that mean?"
38981Now, Miss Meredith, will you tell me, please, just where you have been?"
38981Now, is n''t it a fact that you did intend to elope with her on Thursday evening?"
38981Now, may I ask you what you intend to publish about this affair?"
38981Now, the question is: What possible connection can there be between Dorothy Meredith and the Burglar?
38981Now, what shall I say if they ask questions?
38981Now, what_ did_ happen to Mr. Herbert?
38981Now, will you or will you not return the plate?"
38981Of course it will be all right?"
38981Randolph live here?''
38981Randolph?"
38981Red, you mean?...
38981Taking it this way at this time of the night?"
38981That''s what they do, is n''t it?"
38981The ball was thirty- two calibre?"
38981Then the question: Was the man who stole from Mr. Herbert, probably entering his place and shooting him, masked?
38981Then, in a deadly, forced calm:"She attended the masked ball Thursday evening, did n''t she?"
38981Then-- what?"
38981Then:"Who is this talking?"
38981Thursday evening?...
38981Was Dick Herbert the Burglar?
38981Was it in his college days?
38981Well and good, but is that all?
38981Well, what the deuce is it then?...
38981What am I?
38981What brother?"
38981What could have delayed him?"
38981What does she look like?...
38981What in the world was the matter with you, anyway?"
38981What is the nearest village or town?"
38981What''s her name?...
38981What''s his name?"
38981What''s in it?"
38981What?...
38981Who is he?
38981Who was he?
38981Who_ is_ this?"
38981Why would n''t he say something?
38981Why?
38981Why?
38981Why?
38981Why?"
38981Why?"
38981Why?"
38981Why?"
38981Yes?
38981Yes?...
38981Yet, what happened to him?
38981You know, of course, about the finding of the two automobiles that figured in the case, and the blood- stained cushion?"
38981[ Illustration:"An envious mask hid cheeks and brow"]"How did you know me?"
38981_ SPELL IT!_... M- e- r- e- d- i- t- h. Why did n''t you say that at first?...
38981the reporter asked--"that is, during the last couple of days?"
20985About what?
20985After what we did to them only last night?
20985Ai n''t it?
20985Ai nt, hey? 20985 And boats do n''t run on dry land as a rule, do they, Jud?"
20985And what''s that coming along behind the same? 20985 And when do you look for Mr. Gordon, Paul?"
20985And why, may I ask, Paul?
20985Any reason for thinking that?
20985Anything doing around here?
20985Are all here?
20985Are we going to get busy now?
20985Are you badly injured, Albert?
20985Bobolink just had me on the wire,went on Paul, quietly;"and what d''ye suppose he told me?
20985Buckets?
20985But Paul, how could he ever get his line in under that canvas, and secure any of our grub?
20985But Paul, you do n''t mean to tackle him, do you?
20985But William,the accused boy went on, eagerly,"did n''t I eat more''n any one else?
20985But do you like the idea, fellows? 20985 But how about the torches?"
20985But how-- I do n''t just get hold of that, Paul? 20985 But just what tall timber, Mr. Chairman?
20985But look here, what''s this funny track here? 20985 But say, what''s that you''ve picked up, Paul?
20985But suppose that fails?
20985But suppose they do jump in on us; must we turn the other cheek, and get it on both sides?
20985But the letter?
20985But the machine is n''t here now?
20985But what about Ward? 20985 But what''s happened to give you that idea, Jack?"
20985But why did n''t he stop with you? 20985 But why would they want to break open a feed store?"
20985But you could n''t recognize him?
20985Can you feel anything under your feet?
20985Can you see anything of him, Paul?
20985Did you hear it?
20985Did you know them, Paul?
20985Do n''t it look good to meet with a familiar friend, though?
20985Do n''t we have a fire, and some cooked grub, Paul?
20985Do n''t you think the same as I do, and that Joe recognized that man?
20985Do we get a light?
20985Do you hear that sound again, Joe?
20985Do you know why I said that?
20985Do you miss any money from your safe, sir?
20985Do you remember blowing out the lamp at all, sir?
20985Do you suppose your folks would let you camp out to- night down at the church, along with me?
20985Do you want me to take my gun along?
20985Feels some better, do n''t it?
20985Got the key to the gym door, have n''t you, Paul?
20985Have you reasoned it out?
20985He''s always calling, ai n''t he, fellows?
20985Here, what do you make of that?
20985Hey, what d''ye think of that, fellows?
20985How about that, Wallace?
20985How about the other?
20985How about your animals, sir?
20985How are you caught?
20985How can you tell them apart, Paul?
20985How d''ye know that?
20985How d''ye know, old wiseacre?
20985How did you manage with the Indian sign letters I left with you, sir?
20985How do you know?
20985How large a tin box was it, father?
20985How under the sun do we know? 20985 How was that?
20985I reckon that was what flashed into Joe''s mind,remarked Jack;"he thought this man was at the other side of the world, he said, did he?
20985I suppose,ventured his chum,"you''re thinking of that man, the fellow who stole our ham, and who came up here in that light rig?"
20985I wonder where this cave leads to?
20985If they did n''t mean to badger us in some way why should Ward hurry back to tell the rest, and keep them from showing up here?
20985If your left leg was sore this morning, what d''ye think the other fellow''s felt like?
20985Is he still there, Jack?
20985Is it going to look bad?
20985Is that all?
20985Listen to him, would you, Paul?
20985Listen to that, will you?
20985Listen, would you?
20985Look here, Joe, what do you call this?
20985Look here, what''s to hinder us going and collarin''him on his way home?
20985Look there, what d''ye call that, fellows?
20985Looks good to me, eh, Jack?
20985Meaning that queer little light up there, eh, Paul?
20985No signs of wheels around here, are there, Paul?
20985Nothing like getting used to bunking on the hard floor?
20985Notice the blankets and the things for cooking, will you? 20985 Now look here; what''s the use of beating about the bush like that, Paul?
20985Now you sure ca n''t think any of those circus canvasmen would take the trouble to follow us?
20985Now, I wonder what that could be?
20985Now, what d''ye think these prowlers might be?
20985Of course we put a guard out to- night, Paul?
20985Oh, was that it?
20985Oh, what can we do?
20985Oil?
20985Perhaps Ted and his crowd had an ugly experience with those men?
20985Ready?
20985Say, did you ever see such a hot time?
20985Say, do you know what this makes me think of?
20985Say, fellows, how about settling down to the prosy life after this gay old jaunt; tell me about that?
20985Say, is this the day we start on that long hike?
20985Say, that''s why they call a policeman''s club his locust, ai n''t it?
20985Say, what makes you think that?
20985Say, you do n''t think, now, it could have been one of that Slavin bunch, do you?
20985See that bunch of hemlocks over yonder? 20985 Shall I try to get them together, sir?"
20985Shall we call, and bring some of the fellows around? 20985 Shall we go on further?"
20985Ted Slavin?
20985Ted?
20985That might do the job all right; but at the first sign of danger do n''t you expect this fellow would disappear? 20985 That''s what it is,"observed another, with conviction in his tone;"ai n''t I had it in my hands more''n once at school?
20985Vat is dis, poys?
20985Was that what you noticed?
20985We had Camp Misery and Camp Rescue; what''s the objection to calling this Camp Surprise?
20985Well, what d''ye make of it?
20985Well, what did you strike?
20985Well, who is it?
20985Well,added Paul, cautiously,"it looks that way; but how do we know?
20985Were you hurt by that tumble, Jack?
20985What about''em?
20985What d''ye want, Paul?
20985What did it feel like, Andy?
20985What did you see, then? 20985 What did you think then, old molasses in Winter?"
20985What do you suppose has happened to give them that bad scare?
20985What do you suppose it could be?
20985What in goodness can it be?
20985What is it, father?
20985What makes you say that, Jack?
20985What man?
20985What ought we do then?
20985What ought we to do?
20985What shall we call the camp?
20985What shall we do, boys?
20985What sort of a letter now, I''d like to know? 20985 What under the sun d''ye suppose he''s doin''in here?
20985What under the sun does it all mean?
20985What wo n''t they try next?
20985What''s all that talking going on out there?
20985What''s all the row about, Bobolink? 20985 What''s all this you''re talking about, you sillies?
20985What''s all this?
20985What''s that you say, my boy?
20985What''s that you say?
20985What''s that, Paul; not going to camp right here, I hope?
20985What''s that?
20985What''s the matter in there? 20985 What''s the programme for to- day?"
20985What''s your idea?
20985Whatever ought we to do?
20985When does the moon set to- night, Wallace?
20985Where are you?
20985Where d''ye think they''ve located; because never a tent did they bring along?
20985Where do you suppose this old pile of rocks ever got its name, Paul?
20985Where''s Bobolink?
20985Where''s Bobolink?
20985Where''s that fine old lake, I wonder?
20985Where?
20985Which side of the road did he dive into?
20985Who saw him last?
20985Who was that?
20985Why ca n''t they let us alone?
20985Why did n''t we see that before, then?
20985Why should it,he said in reply;"when our motto is always''be prepared''?
20985Why, hello, Wallace, is that you?
20985Why, is that you, Paul?
20985Will you be there, then?
20985Wonder whether they were tramps, or thieves?
20985Would n''t that just jar you some, fellows?
20985Would you put it past them?
20985You believe that I''d like to help get it back for him, do n''t you?
20985You mean so they might follow, and give us all the trouble they could?
20985You mean the Slavin crowd, sir, I take it?
20985You mean they will have to go back home, or stay hungry?
20985You really do n''t know, then?
20985You vill wake up de goot beoples mit your rackets, hey?
20985A bobcat then?
20985Ai nt you going to turn me loose now?"
20985Am I right in believing one of these chaps must be Paul?"
20985And William, you know where to put your hand on those clubs, do n''t you?"
20985And supposing he had fallen in a fit, who had put out the lamp?
20985And this is supposed to be the fuse, is n''t it?
20985Ask your father, Jack?"
20985Boys, do n''t you see what an ugly look that has?"
20985Boys, do n''t you see what an ugly look that has?"
20985Boys, have a little mercy, wo n''t you, now?"
20985Bud here knows where there''s a weak catch, do n''t you, Bud?"
20985But I''m wondering what that big circle close to the camp means?"
20985But Joe, how did he know about the value of the papers your father kept in that tin box?"
20985But if not Ted''s toadies, then who could be wandering about up there?
20985But what are you doing, Jack?"
20985But what are you going to do about it, Paul?"
20985But what became of him then?"
20985But what of it?"
20985But what was it I saw you doing at our last camp, just before we pulled up stakes?"
20985But what''s got you now?
20985But where can the papers be?"
20985But you did n''t hear the popping of the machine, did you?"
20985But you know they''re intending to hike out up in the same quarter we''ve selected?
20985CHAPTER V GETTING READY FOR THE GREAT HIKE"Can you see him yet, Paul?"
20985CHAPTER XII A CAMP BY THE ROADSIDE"Let me have a tent, will you, somebody?"
20985CHAPTER XIII WHEN THE MOON WENT DOWN"Did you know who it was, Paul?"
20985CHAPTER XV LEFT IN THE LURCH"You do n''t say so, Ted?"
20985CHAPTER XVI AT THE FOOT OF RATTLESNAKE MOUNTAIN"Who?"
20985CHAPTER XXIII WHAT THE EYES OF A SCOUT MAY SEE"What damage was done last night?"
20985CHAPTER XXXIII WHAT PAUL FOUND-- CONCLUSION"What if those men should come back again, and take us prisoners?"
20985Ca n''t you get hold of a branch or two, and hang on when I cut the rope?
20985Ca n''t you get hold of a branch or two, and hang on when I cut the rope?
20985Can you give a guess, Paul?"
20985Chapter VII"What''s the matter in there?
20985Chapter XXXI"Who''s that?
20985Clausin?"
20985Clausin?"
20985Come to look us up, d''ye s''pose, pardner?"
20985Could I have misplaced it in any way?"
20985Could it be possible that Mr. Morris, the lawyer friend of Joe''s father, had influenced that official to start out in search of the papers?
20985Could it be that the entire Slavin crowd had managed to elude their vigilance, and was now hovering over the camp, ready to carry out some dark plot?
20985Could it really be a bear up there in that big oak, the branches of which reached out, and shook hands with those of other trees?
20985Could these be the lost papers that had been the cause of so much distress to Mr. Clausin?
20985D''ye suppose they would break a window if they found the door locked?"
20985Did anybody hear a sound like a dog growling right then?"
20985Did n''t you say he was going to stay here till you came from the meeting?"
20985Did the unknown robber come to the feed- store just on purpose to get hold of them?
20985Did you get a squint of the pond through the trees?
20985Did you happen to get a good look at the face of that man as he drove past?"
20985Did you have another of those awful spells?"
20985Did you know him?"
20985Do it some more, will you?"
20985Do n''t kick a feller when he''s down, will you, Paul?
20985Do they use it for lamps, or watches, like they do porpoise oil?"
20985Do you believe that, Paul?"
20985Do you get it, Jud?"
20985Do you mean to tell them now?"
20985Do you really think it might be so?
20985Do you think they would dare stone the camp, and try to smash our tents?"
20985Four should be enough to hold the fort, do n''t you think, Jack?"
20985Get next to the ghost, will you?"
20985Get on to his curves, would you, boys?
20985Get the idea, boys?"
20985Had Mr. Clausin found something on the floor of his feed store that told him his wicked brother must have been there?
20985Had he ever known him?
20985Has he gotten clean away?"
20985Have I been a doin''anything I had n''t ought to?"
20985Have they got the slippery coon?"
20985Have you noticed that it seems to have no visible outlet?
20985He did n''t pull dot rope?
20985Here, Paul, ai n''t we got something in our medicine chest good for burns?
20985How about it, Joe?"
20985How are you going to tell Mr. Gordon that we hiked out of here, and headed due west from this point?"
20985How can they hold us back?"
20985How could the villain ever clap hands on our prize; tell me that, wo n''t you Paul?"
20985How could we prove anything, then, Jack; tell me that?"
20985How dare you grab me this way?"
20985How many are there who would like to wipe out that debt, and clean the slate for the day?"
20985How many matches in the crowd?"
20985How''d you ever git in here; and who''s along with you?
20985How''d you ever git in here; and who''s along with you?
20985How''s that suit you?"
20985How''s that?"
20985How''s this place, Paul?"
20985However did you come to put it there inside of Ward''s hat?"
20985Hurry up, ca n''t you?"
20985I hate to tell the boys we''ve reached the end of the rope; but what else is left?"
20985I leave it to Paul here, if that ai n''t the truth?"
20985I wonder what I ought to do?
20985I wonder what it can mean?"
20985If a rattlesnake jumped out of those bushes there, and gave me a jab on the leg, how ought I go about it to keep from keeling over?
20985Is n''t that a moving light away up on the side of Rattlesnake Mountain?"
20985Is n''t that it, fellows?"
20985Is that it?"
20985Jack went on,"or are you just saying it on general principles, like?"
20985Joe, is that you?"
20985Listen to that, will you?"
20985Look here, Paul, do you think the man who drove along in that rig is one of these two men?"
20985Look here, what brought you up here, and who are you?"
20985Look inside, and see if there is n''t a circle and two cross bars, made with a pen on the sweat band?"
20985Look what''s that chasing him?"
20985Look, who''s coming over there, Paul?"
20985No trouble about such a simple story, eh, Jud?"
20985Now what d''ye think happened?"
20985Now, what are you staring at, Bobolink?"
20985Paul asked;"have n''t they proved themselves ready to do any sort of mean trick in the past?
20985Paul, do you mean-- would they dare try to dump all that fine grub in the creek, and perhaps ruin our new tents?"
20985Paul, do you think he means to hold him up, or find out where he lives, so he can steal something more?"
20985Paul, what should we do?"
20985Perhaps you noticed me, and that''s why you spoke?"
20985Perhaps you remember noticing a little side road that joined with this one about a quarter of a mile back?"
20985Pick out several likely chaps, wo n''t you?"
20985Possibly some of its waters manage to get to the Bushkill because there are several streams running in; but where does it flow out?"
20985Ready?"
20985Reckon you do n''t ever wanter go there agin, eh?
20985Reckon you do n''t ever wanter go there agin, eh?"
20985Say, Hank, did n''t I tell you I seen that chief of police down on the road that comes up here from Tatum?
20985Say, Hank, did n''t I tell you I seen that chief of police down on the road that comes up here from Tatum?
20985Say, you do n''t think there might be a little bunch of the nasty scaly monsters left over from the old cripple''s hunt, do you, Paul?"
20985See the point, fellows?"
20985Shall I get a lantern; and do you want any more along?"
20985Shall I go up and find out?"
20985Shall I wake Bobolink and William?"
20985Shall we go back to the camp now, Paul?"
20985So suppose I draw a rude hand, with the finger pointing toward a sun that is half down behind a line?
20985Suppose you get a few pictures of this first camp?
20985Tell me that, will you, Paul?"
20985Tell us that, wo n''t you?"
20985That was surely Jack answering him, but where could he be?
20985The level line I take it is meant for the horizon?"
20985Then what?
20985There ai n''t any wild animals in here, are there, Paul?"
20985They have been threatened with all sorts of horrible punishments; but did you ever know of one of that bunch to be haled up before the justice?"
20985They''re on the ground first; but what do we care about that, if they only leave us alone?"
20985Think of that big bell booming out at such an hour of the night, will you?
20985Want to go with me, Jack?"
20985Was he especially interested in what that tin box held?"
20985Well, what was to hinder a_ boy_ from coming into competition with other things, when an explanation of the mystery was sought?
20985Were there others also in the oak?
20985What ails me, anyhow?"
20985What ails you?"
20985What could those papers have been; and why was he looking at them that night?
20985What d''ye mean holding me up like this, right at our own gate too?
20985What d''ye suppose has scared them?"
20985What d''ye think?"
20985What d''ye want with us?
20985What d''ye want with us?
20985What did you see?"
20985What do you say, Jack?"
20985What do you suppose we''re apt to strike there, Paul?
20985What do you think I found only a few hundred feet away from our camp?"
20985What has happened?
20985What if Hank were returning to search for his coat, remembering how he had left it so carelessly when he fled, and what things of value it held?
20985What if no one had noticed the absence of Albert, and they had hurried away from the ruined camp, leaving him fast in the tree?
20985What kind of a scout are you, anyway, William?"
20985What relation is he to you, Joe, and where was he in prison?"
20985What say, Wallace?"
20985What say, fellows?"
20985What was that sound?"
20985What was the use, when he had followers able and willing to obey the crook of his little finger?
20985What would dad say if he knew?"
20985What would n''t I give to get that?"
20985What''s that, Bobolink picking up his bugle?
20985Whatever made these, Paul?"
20985When will you drop in for me?"
20985Where am I?"
20985Where are we going to hike?"
20985Where can I get a bucket handy, mister?
20985Where was that, Jack?"
20985Who could that man be, and why should poor Joe feel so badly over having set eyes on him?
20985Who did, den, tell me dot?
20985Who is he, Joe?"
20985Who was it, and is he all right again?"
20985Who''s been kicking me when I was asleep?
20985Why d''ye suppose men''d hang out in such a place as this, and shun their fellows, if they ai n''t been doin''something against the law?"
20985Why do n''t you open up?
20985Why do n''t you open up?"
20985Will I ever forget it?"
20985Would n''t that be apt to tell him we went west from here?"
20985Would the thief open up communications with him, and demand a ransom for their return?
20985You believe that, do n''t you?"
20985You''ve seen something, have n''t you?"
20985ai n''t this the toughest place ever, though?"
20985another o''them boy scouts you was tellin''me about, eh, Hank?"
20985asked Mr. Clausin, hastily;"the door was open when you came?
20985but do n''t they all look like they''d been drawn through a knot- hole, though?"
20985came a voice that Paul easily recognized as belonging to Ted Slavin himself;"Who''s afraid?
20985cried Bobolink, as he rubbed his eyes,"wake me up, somebody, wo n''t you?
20985cried Bobolink,"but wo n''t he get the dope instead of you, then?"
20985did n''t you hear it, fellows?
20985do n''t I know that Ted, though?"
20985do n''t it look awful big, fellows?"
20985exclaimed Bobolink as he found himself looking into what seemed to be a very deep and black hole;"was n''t it lucky we got the glim going when we did?
20985exclaimed Bobolink,"now, what do you mean by that?
20985exclaimed Jack, in a disappointed tone,"then he''s a friend of yours, sir?
20985get a grip on my legs, will you?
20985is that so?"
20985lamented William, as he leaned on his war- club, and looked as forlorn as one of his merry disposition ever could,"whatever did they run away for?
20985laughed Paul;"and I guess you must have made the same discovery I did?"
20985listen, would you?"
20985mister scout leader, how vas dot?"
20985my, what do you mean, Bobolink?"
20985said a quavering voice,"is that you?"
20985shucks, d''ye mean to say you never heard that story?"
20985the looney has been fishing here; now, what d''ye think of that?"
20985the old sexton was crying,"I knows apout how you does all de times, Villiam Carberries, ai n''t it?
20985then you mean they''re escaped convicts, or something like that?"
20985then you think perhaps that Ted Slavin and his crowd might have made this fire; is that it, Paul?"
20985there, Bud, what''s keeping you?"
20985think you''re smart, do n''t you, Morrison?
20985vat you poys say?
20985was n''t that a jerk?"
20985well, we''re not worrying,"declared Jud, looking around at the ring of bright faces, and nodding,"are we, fellows?"
20985well,"Jud went on to say,"what would be the use of tantalizing the poor chaps?
20985what if we should run up against a man hiding there?"
20985what of that?"
20985what was it?
20985what would nine miles be to fellows on wheels?
20985what''s going on, Paul?"
20985where do we come in?
20985yes, tell that to the ducks, will you?
20985you, mister with the big elephant, do n''t you want a drink of the coldest spring water on earth?
61486Again?
61486Ai n''t you kinder sorry to treat Tony and Bob that way? 61486 And did n''t we say that the Glen''s Falls neighborhood would be just the place for him if he were on deck?
61486And did you tell him you were going to stop here?
61486And do n''t you believe in the existence of the Buster band either?
61486And do n''t you remember that the detective who arrested that friend of Dave Daily''s came up here on a wheel?
61486And do you mean to say that you have come that distance with nothing but a book to guide you?
61486And have n''t the band said that every man who comes into the country on a wheel can make up his mind to go out of it on foot? 61486 And is that account correct?"
61486And my machine is a passport to the best society in the land-- eh?
61486And this is what we get by taking you in and feeding you when you was nigh about dead, is it?
61486And were you stupid enough to believe that our friend Roy was Rowe Shelly? 61486 And where will we come in?
61486And where''s the boy who would not go crazy after years of solitary confinement, no matter if his prison was furnished like a palace?
61486And why ought I to let myself go down?
61486And will I have my father and mother to live with me, and be free to come and go, as other fellows do? 61486 And will the law really help me to rid myself of that man?"
61486And you do n''t want to go, I suppose?
61486Are there any stores on the island?
61486Are there no officers in the vicinity?
61486Are they black?
61486Are we going to let what the conductor said about that Buster band induce us to change our route?
61486Are you from Jamestown?
61486Are you going to the city with me?
61486Art,exclaimed Joe, starting up in his chair,"do you think-- do you mean to say--""Does n''t everything go to show it?"
61486Been in a fight?
61486Been sleigh- riding much?
61486Besides, what else could you do? 61486 Bless his heart, has he come back again?"
61486But do n''t you know that they are in the minority?
61486But he did n''t say anything about them, did he?
61486But he''ll want evidence, wo n''t he?
61486But how do we know which way it is coming from?
61486But it does look dark now that the lights have gone, do n''t it? 61486 But what guide- book shall we send for, and where shall we go?"
61486But what object did you have in doing it?
61486But what sort of a place have you brought us to with your superior knowledge?
61486But what''s the reason they will not allow any of the nice folks in town to board us if they want to?
61486But where did you get those black eyes if you did n''t get them while escaping from the island?
61486But who is he, and by what authority does he commit this outrage?
61486But you ai n''t, be you?
61486But you see there''s no need of it, do n''t you? 61486 But you would n''t like to bet a dollar that she can beat my deer- killer at the distance of a hundred yards, would you?
61486Ca n''t we do anything for Roy before morning? 61486 Ca n''t you see me now?"
61486Ca n''t you see that the purse is chuck full, and do n''t you know that the owner will be willing to give something handsome to get it back? 61486 Ca n''t you see that you show a wonderful lack of_ something_ in starting off on your wheel to hunt a needle in a haystack?
61486Can you think of any?
61486Can you truthfully say that you ever saw me before?
61486Canton?
61486Captain, will you please--"What do you want here?
61486Chalk these, will you?
61486Colonel Shelly will know that I am not his nephew, wo n''t he? 61486 Come again, have you?"
61486Could n''t it be possible that no change was made in this particular route-- I mean the one you are now taking?
61486Did Babcock see them, and what did they have to say about my disappearance? 61486 Did anybody ever see uglier looking things, I wonder?"
61486Did he want me to believe that he was about to send you to the city for goods?
61486Did n''t I tell you that you were taken aboard the White Squall on purpose?
61486Did n''t that juryman say that he believed Matt would some day turn up alive and as full of mischief as ever?
61486Did n''t we get it all off?
61486Did n''t you know that I was going to be kidnapped?
61486Did the steamer sink or burn up?
61486Did you ever talk to Rowe Shelly about these things?
61486Did you say_ Matt_ would be mad?
61486Did you see that operation?
61486Did you take a good look at him?
61486Do all officers pound their men in this fashion, and do you fellows submit to it?
61486Do n''t I be goin''down beyant there onct or twicst bechune trains iv''ry blessed day of me loife for three years an''better? 61486 Do n''t I see him every day, and ought n''t I to know him if anybody?"
61486Do n''t I talk fast enough to keep you awake?
61486Do n''t he feel inclined to talk? 61486 Do n''t you owe him something?"
61486Do n''t you see his white shirt and cap? 61486 Do n''t you?
61486Do you believe any one told Matt that you had the bank''s money and sent him to No- Man''s Pond to whip it out of you?
61486Do you hear that? 61486 Do you intend to take me away on this thing?"
61486Do you know what I am going to do?
61486Do you know who you are kicking at?
61486Do you know, I never once thought of that? 61486 Do you mean to say that that fool Rowe Shelly has run away from home again?"
61486Do you see that flash ahead? 61486 Do you see them letters on the critter''s head all mixed up together?
61486Do you suppose he has ever been to school?
61486Do you suppose he rides?
61486Do you think I would put the colonel''s nephew in danger for the sake of a paltry five hundred dollars? 61486 Do you think it possible that Rowe could have bribed them to take him across to the mainland?"
61486Does anybody see anything that looks as though it might be used for a lookout station?
61486Does he look anything like me?
61486Does n''t it beat you how that fellow keeps turning up?
61486Does n''t your guide- book warn you that there are some fellows up that way you had better keep clear of?
61486Goin''to change your berth, or what you goin''to do?
61486Has the other man got a lamp? 61486 Have n''t I showed you that I am perfectly willing to trust you to return this big wad of greenbacks to the owner?
61486Have n''t I told you that he was appointed by the court?
61486Have they been long in Colonel Shelly''s employ?
61486Have you a pitcher of milk to spare, and can you give us a good big lunch to eat along the way?
61486Have you any influential friends in town?
61486Have you had your arm examined by a surgeon?
61486Have you seen Rowe since we left him in his room last night?
61486He rode over a trestle in the dark?
61486He was a pretty sleek talker, was n''t he?
61486How about the grub?
61486How could he have bribed anybody when he had no money?
61486How did this fisherman happen to know so much about Rowe''s father and mother?
61486How do you know he stole your tools?
61486How far do you intend to take me in this close carriage?
61486How far was it from the White Squall to the light- ship?
61486How in the name of all that''s wonderful did you get stranded here?
61486How in the world can there be any mistake about it?
61486How is there going to be any trouble about it? 61486 How many of you fellows are there, anyway?
61486How old are you, if it is a fair question?
61486How shall I go to work?
61486How would you act, if you were in my place?
61486I come here''cause I had to go somewhere, did n''t I?
61486I could save it for an emergency like this, could n''t I? 61486 I do n''t know, and you would n''t expect me to tell you if I did, would you?
61486I guess you have n''t seen many wheelmen, have you?
61486I made replies to all the questions he asked me, did n''t I? 61486 I mean, what kind of a scrape are you going to get into next?"
61486I suppose we shall find the country people all right?
61486I suppose your object is to have fun and see the country, is n''t it?
61486I was n''t on the island long enough to learn much about him; ca n''t you tell me something?
61486I''d have to sign my right name to the letters, would n''t I?
61486I''ll tell you why he did n''t speak to-- what''s their names?
61486I''m a pretty looking fellow to go calling, am I not?
61486If the members of that Buster band do n''t work, how do they live?
61486If you did n''t want to do it what made you?
61486If you have so many acquaintances in the city, why did you put up at a hotel? 61486 If you saw them there at the rock, what was the reason you did not drive them off so''t the train could run into it?"
61486If your guardian finds you can he make you go back against your will?
61486In all that storm?
61486Is it what Byron calls the tocsin of the soul, the dinner bell? 61486 Is n''t it going to be an ugly night?"
61486Is n''t there any law to punish a captain for taking men to sea against their will?
61486Is she going to sea?
61486Is that all of you? 61486 Is that satisfactory?"
61486Is that where this ship is bound?
61486Is there no other way in which I can assist you?
61486Is-- is it Rowe Shelly?
61486Is_ that_ the sort of folks they are?
61486It comes from the light- ship which is anchored at the mouth of the harbor, does n''t it? 61486 It suits you, does it not?"
61486It''s rough, is n''t it?
61486Looks most too risky, do n''t it?
61486Matt who? 61486 Members of the L.A.W.?"
61486Mount Airy?
61486My dear sir, do I look as if I were that low down in the world? 61486 My folks do n''t suspect anything; how is it with yours?"
61486My two friends, Joe Wayring and Arthur Hastings?
61486Now that is the neatest kind of a trick, ai n''t it? 61486 Now what do you think?"
61486Now why did n''t you say so?
61486Now, go ahead and tell us how you came to take Roy Sheldon over to that ship when you did n''t want to?
61486Now, is there anything I can do for you before I say good- night? 61486 Now, then, what''s that?"
61486Now, what''s the sense in going on like that?
61486Now, when I take this money to its owner in the morning, he will pay the reward out of what it contains, wo n''t he? 61486 Now-- why did n''t they?"
61486Oh, that''s the reason he went off in such a hurry, was it?
61486Oh, that''s what made you jump and look frightened when I caught hold of you and called you a runaway, was it?
61486Oh, there may be lawless men about Glen''s Falls, and where in the world will you go amiss of them?
61486Oh, wo n''t he? 61486 On top of what?"
61486On what vessel?
61486Or about Joe''s wild ride over that trestle?
61486Or an excursion?
61486Say, Jobson,he continued, changing the subject, for it was one he did not like to dwell upon,"was the storm so very hard?
61486Say, Joe,said Arthur suddenly,"he looks a good deal like Roy Sheldon, does n''t he?"
61486So Rowe Shelly has skipped again, has he?
61486So that''s the scamp who got you into so much trouble, is it?
61486So that''s the way I look when I have n''t a black eye and a lame arm, is it?
61486So they have been shanghaied too, have they? 61486 So what''s the use in going there( to the agency, I mean) before we can learn something?"
61486So you''re going back on me, are you?
61486Step out from behind the counter and say that again, will you?
61486Suppose it should be a passenger train?
61486Takes it most too cool, do n''t he?
61486Telling him what you intend to do?
61486That makes things look a little pleasanter, does n''t it? 61486 That will be a dead give- away on me, wo n''t it?"
61486That''s what he told Bab; but he knew you were from-- what is the name of that place again?
61486The clerk did?
61486Then I''ve got to go the rest of the way by water, have I?
61486Then he did n''t come to the island with us, did he? 61486 Then what was the use of a regular allowance of money if you could n''t spend it?"
61486Then why did n''t he make a confidant of him?
61486Then why do you sail with him? 61486 Then you knew that ship was the White Squall, and that she was not going into the harbor for shelter?"
61486Then, who was the chap who left a message for Wayring and Hastings?
61486There''s a long account of it in the_ Tribune_?
61486There''s a rock on the track-- What are you trying to do, you loon?
61486This bangs me; now where''s the trail?
61486Waiting for you?
61486Was it Roy Sheldon?
61486Was n''t it Rowe Shelly?
61486Was-- was it a bite?
61486Well, before you do it, had n''t you better get a lantern and satisfy yourselves that you have made no mistake in the boy? 61486 Well, how is it?"
61486Well, then, what makes you talk to me that- a- way?
61486Well, then, where are you going to take me?
61486Well, was n''t I here?
61486Well, was n''t that what you expected to do when you got back to the island?
61486Well, what are we standing here for? 61486 Well, what are you going to do to Joe now?"
61486Well, what''s that but hearsay? 61486 Were we all blind that we did n''t notice these things when we first came here?"
61486What agency does he belong to?
61486What are you afraid of?
61486What are you afraid of?
61486What are you holding so far to the right for?
61486What are you talking about, Rowe? 61486 What bargain?"
61486What can those men be thinking of? 61486 What chap?"
61486What conclusion did you and Babcock come to?
61486What conclusion?
61486What did Willis mean when he called you off on one side saying that he had an order for you?
61486What did you think when you saw him jump into the harbor?
61486What do you know?
61486What do you mean, anyway?
61486What do you think he meant to do with them?
61486What do you want now?
61486What fellow?
61486What for lookin''abstraction is it?
61486What has gone wrong with you now?
61486What has the Buster band to say about it?
61486What have you been doing to get yourself into such a plight?
61486What if they do?
61486What in the world did the passengers have to be frightened about so long as Joe and I stopped the train and averted the disaster? 61486 What in the world have you been doing to yourself, Mr.--ah-- er-- Barton?"
61486What is it?
61486What is that welcome sound that comes faintly to my ears?
61486What made you back away from me when I got off my wheel and walked toward you? 61486 What made you do that?
61486What makes you ask?
61486What makes you think so?
61486What makes you think that?
61486What marks?
61486What plot?
61486What precinct does this man Babcock belong to?
61486What shall I do first?
61486What ship is this?
61486What steamer? 61486 What things?"
61486What was his name?
61486What were they afraid of?
61486What would have been the good of doin''that, seein''that Joe an''Arthur had already went off?
61486What would he say if he knew about Roy''s long swim in New London harbor?
61486What you doin''here, lad?
61486What''s going on to- night, any way?
61486What''s that flash I see every little while off the port bow?
61486What''s the matter with you and Babcock?
61486What''s the name of the boy you took me for-- Rowe Shelly? 61486 What''s the object of so much secrecy?
61486What''s the reason I ca n''t?
61486What''s the reason they do n''t?
61486What''s the trouble?
61486What''s the use of cutting up like this?
61486What''s your hurry?
61486What''s your opinion of that fellow, any way?
61486When and how did he get it?
61486When and how?
61486Where are you going now?
61486Where are you going?
61486Where away?
61486Where did those rumors come from?
61486Where did you find it?
61486Where does he live?
61486Where from?
61486Where has he? 61486 Where have you been?"
61486Where have you come from and where are you going, if it is a fair question?
61486Where have you started for, anyway?
61486Where have_ you_ been to get mussed up in this way? 61486 Where''s Babcock now?"
61486Where''s his wheel?
61486Where?
61486Which way did Rowe go?
61486Who are they, and where did they get that name?
61486Who are you?
61486Who bunged your eyes for you?
61486Who cares?
61486Who did you think we were?
61486Who do you think told him?
61486Who does he think I am?
61486Who is Willis?
61486Who is Willis?
61486Who put you up to it-- Willis?
61486Who''s Bab?
61486Who''s Willis?
61486Who''s going to take him there?
61486Who''s my uncle?
61486Who? 61486 Why did n''t Matt hunt up that band and live among them instead of going to such a place as Indian Lake?"
61486Why did n''t he hunt up that band-- did you say there was a band of them?
61486Why did n''t he stay here and see me through, instead of going off in the yacht the first thing in the morning? 61486 Why did n''t you come up higher an''lend a hand with the topsail?"
61486Why did you grab me and call me a runaway?
61486Why do n''t the fools stick to the road? 61486 Why do n''t you let down the windows?
61486Why do n''t you say the same, lad? 61486 Why do you ask the question, and what makes you glare at me in that fashion?"
61486Why do you come in without awaking me, and who was that fellow who just went out?
61486Why do you stop at such an out- of- the- way place?
61486Why does n''t his uncle tell him where his father is, and let him go and see him?
61486Why not avoid the place altogether?
61486Why should we give the tow- path a wide berth?
61486Why, ca n''t you see? 61486 Why, did n''t Jake Coyle declare in your hearing that Tom Bigden told his father that the money was in your camp- basket?"
61486Why, did n''t you tell the clerk whom I relieved that you were going to take the night boat for Bloomingdale?
61486Why, what''s the matter?
61486Why, what''s the matter?
61486Will it be convenient for you to keep us to- night?
61486Will you go with me? 61486 Wo n''t you see Rowe safe to the island?"
61486Would n''t he want to keep out of sight of the officers who were looking for the money he was known to have in his possession? 61486 Would n''t we, Dave?
61486Would you have the law on him for tying you to a tree and threatening to wallop you with switches?
61486Would you prosecute him for it, if you had a chance?
61486Yes, she''s bound out, and you have n''t any call to go with her, have you?
61486You are not afraid of me, are you? 61486 You did?"
61486You do n''t suppose Matt knows that, do you?
61486You do n''t think Willis got Tony and Bob and me shanghaied on purpose, do you?
61486You do n''t think that a ship that has been loaded and waiting for two or three weeks would stop to pick up a deserter, do you? 61486 You know too much about him and his affairs, do you?"
61486You mean to repudiate your honest debts, do you?
61486You said Matt Coyle did n''t care the snap of his finger for my wishes, but now you see that you were mistaken, do n''t you? 61486 You still stick to it that you are not Rowe Shelly, do you?"
61486You will change your route then?
61486You''re quite positive that the boy below is Rowe Shelly, and nobody else?
61486You''re quite sure that there''s no mistake about it? 61486 Ai n''t your name Peter Smith?
61486And Matt was the best guide, boatman, and hunter in the Indian Lake country?
61486And who was the fellow who jumped overboard?
61486And you are the boy who would n''t be pumped, are you?
61486And you saw me when I took you in at Peach Grove two years ago, did n''t you?
61486Are there any people on it?"
61486Are they here-- on the island?
61486Are you going to send me off in the yacht?"
61486Are you going to try it?"
61486Are you ready?
61486Before I would say that I was scared by a little thing like that I would go off and hide myself; would n''t you, Spence?"
61486But here''s a question: Do you know that your parents are still alive?"
61486But they do have them around that light- ship, do n''t they?
61486But was it a_ sailor_ who jumped overboard?
61486But what made you get sick of your bargain so soon?
61486But what would they say when they learned that he had not brought a cent with him?
61486But what''s the odds?
61486But what''s the odds?
61486But what''s the use of talking?"
61486But which end of the road will take us to our destination?
61486But why do n''t the ship come about and go toward the harbor, if she''s going to?
61486But why do n''t you get another guardian and put it out of this man''s power to harass you with detectives every time you leave the island?"
61486But you see--""And would I be admitted to the best society in the land if I were untruthful or dishonest?"
61486By the way, have you seen Bab this morning?"
61486By the way, how far is the railroad from here?
61486Can you two raise three dollars and a quarter between you?
61486Captain, can this boy be locked in the cabin with any certainty that we shall find him there when we want him?"
61486Did anybody ever hear of sich pizen luck?"
61486Did he beat you out of anything?"
61486Did he catch him?"
61486Did he want to see them punished for shooting those savage dogs, or did he want to have them robbed?
61486Did it blow much here last night and early this morning?
61486Did n''t the old man stand by you before?
61486Did n''t they say at the start that all they wanted of us was to tell what we knew about that money?
61486Did the enraged officer intend to kill him where he lay?
61486Did the man move with cautious footsteps as if he were afraid of disturbing somebody?
61486Did they belong to him, and was he going to raise a fuss with his friend Arthur for shooting them?
61486Did this what''s his name-- Sheldon, look as though he had been in the water?"
61486Did you learn anything more about your missing friend?
61486Did you think I was a ghost?"
61486Do I look much like him?"
61486Do n''t believe it, do you?"
61486Do n''t you know that the money goes with the boy?
61486Do n''t you know that this is the very hotel of all others that you ought to have shunned?"
61486Do n''t you read the papers, you two?
61486Do you believe Matt and his crowd were down there, and that they had anything to do with the rock we found on the track?"
61486Do you expect me to take Jake''s word for anything?
61486Do you know how much you owe the house?"
61486Do you know where Rowe Shelly is now?"
61486Do you know who''s talking to you?"
61486Do you ride?"
61486Do you see a ship or a coaster anywheres, I do n''t know?
61486Do you see that bright light dead ahead?
61486Do you think the chief detective will be ready to undo this work when you ask him?"
61486Do you want me to tell him that you would n''t obey orders because you were afraid?"
61486Do you?"
61486Feel any better?
61486Folks who will steal are not above lying, are they?"
61486Going anywhere?
61486Had n''t you better lay down in that there bunk before it gets worse on you?
61486Had n''t you better let me bring up a little lunch for fear that you may get hungry before morning?"
61486Have n''t you seen this morning''s_ Tribune_?
61486Have you brought any news, Jobson?"
61486He strolled leisurely up to the carriage, saying, in a drawling tone:"I suppose it is all right, Bab?"
61486He was glad when Roy said:"Have n''t we stayed here about long enough?
61486How close to the light- ship can I run in this tide?"
61486How come you aboard here in the first place?"
61486How did you escape from her, and where is she now?"
61486How did you get word from them?
61486How did you happen to choose that uniform?
61486How do you suppose that pile of things came on the track?"
61486How does it come that you happened to choose it when there were so many more that you might have taken?"
61486How high is it above the water?"
61486How long before you are going to run into the harbor?"
61486How long since it was written?"
61486How long would it be before the whole power of the State would be put forth to bring them to justice?"
61486How much do we owe you?"
61486How would he go to work to"shut up their mouths,"as he had spoken of doing?
61486How would it do to add a line to the letter I have written to Willis?"
61486How''ll I know him-- by his bunged- up eyes?"
61486I declare, he lives in clover, does he not?"
61486I followed you from the Lafayette House-- say, Rowe, do n''t you think you were foolish to go to that hotel where all the wheelmen stop?
61486I hope they do n''t belong to any of you?"
61486I mean the one that runs through Dorchester?"
61486I mean, was it severe enough to keep vessels from going and coming?"
61486I never saw him while I was in the woods,--did I, boys?"
61486I suppose he will report the arrest at his own headquarters, will he not?"
61486I suppose you ca n''t tell me where to address you in case I should have anything interesting to communicate?"
61486I was-- what do you call it?--shanghaied?
61486I wonder if that is n''t the''lubber''s hole''I have so often read of?
61486I would n''t think of trusting every one as I am willing to trust you, but seeing that you belong to the fraternity-- eh?"
61486If I were aboard that ship now how far at sea would I be?"
61486If Joe and Arthur had known all this, would they have been so ready to dash off into the darkness to warn the unsuspecting engineer of his peril?
61486If he did n''t do one or the other, how does it come that Roy was molested?
61486If he had, what was his object in doing it?
61486If not, why did Matt fly into such a rage at the mention of his name, and cut Jake''s face so unmercifully with that switch?"
61486Is that the way they use a foremast hand, I wonder-- kick him when he falls down through no fault of his own?
61486Is that you, Benny?
61486It could n''t have been your brother, could it?
61486It is n''t likely that they would have come aboard this ship if they had known that they were going to be kidnapped, would they?"
61486It was evident, however, that Tony could, for he called out:"Goin''to pull farther in for shelter, are you?
61486It was right on the point of Roy Sheldon''s tongue to inquire:"And will you expect him to sleep on the platform of nights?"
61486It would n''t be too long a run, would it?
61486Joe, what course are you going to follow when you get to the agency?"
61486Let me see; what did he say it was?"
61486Look here,"he added, sinking his voice almost to a whisper;"do you see those three fellows talking with the clerk?
61486Look here; is n''t it about time we were going ashore?
61486Me?"
61486Might it not have been some one else?
61486Mr. Holmes''s face grew bright again, but he showed a little anxiety when he asked:"Did Daily see you do it, or does he know anything about it?
61486Now is n''t this glorious?
61486Now what shall I do?"
61486Now, how much does this boy know or suspect, I wonder?"
61486Now, how soon can I get ashore to relieve the anxiety of my friends?"
61486Now, what do you want me to do?
61486Now, what induced you two to tramp back to New London instead of shipping on some vessel that would take you there?"
61486Now, where is the cow- path that leads to the brook?"
61486Now, why does n''t Mrs. Moffatt come in and tell me that Rowe has run away again?"
61486Of course Matt would know it, if he found them there in the bushes, and what would he do?
61486Of course we thought it was Rowe that we were going to take off to the ship after that money, and why should we not?
61486Officer, do you see what this villain is doing?
61486Or what if a tire should come off?
61486Pull, why do n''t ye?
61486Remember it, do n''t you?"
61486Say, Art, you remember the carriage that was driven away just as we came out of the Academy of Music, do n''t you?
61486Say,"he went on, in a more guarded tone,"where are you going to stop to night?"
61486See the point?"
61486Seen this morning''s_ Tribune_?"
61486Shall we try it?"
61486So those six thousand dollars were the fruits of his honest toil, were they?
61486Sounds a good deal like Rowe Shelly, do n''t it?
61486Tell me that, will you?"
61486That chap did n''t fool you, did he?"
61486That''s the only one you can keep open, is n''t it?
61486The colonel must be rich if he can afford to own a whole island so near a big city like New London, must n''t he?"
61486The colonel told me to attend to this business for him, and when he finds I''ve not done it, what shall I say to him?
61486The fellow who deliberately threw himself into the water was I; and I tell you-- Why do n''t you sit down?
61486The first words he uttered were:"It''s just dreadful to think of, is n''t it?"
61486The mate knocked you over while you was trying to cast off your boat; then what happened?"
61486The question was: How should he get out of his difficulty?
61486Then what would become of the train, if it approached from the direction in which he was going?
61486Then where''ll your witnesses be to prove that you was shanghaied, and that the mate knocked you down and beat you with a rope''s end?"
61486There is n''t any danger that she will stop and take me off this boat, is there?"
61486These weeds are three for a quarter, I suppose?"
61486They are put under bonds, but the case is postponed on one pretext or another, and while that is being done, how is Jack going to live?
61486Understand?
61486Understand?"
61486We''re going as close to her as we can lie in this wind, and when we pass her we''ll be outside, wo n''t we?
61486Well how do we know but Roy was in it, and that he was the fellow who resisted arrest?"
61486Well, I''ll do the same by you, and you may trust me to tell him( I am a wheelman, you know) that I have already paid twenty- five dollars to-- Hallo?
61486Well, I''m glad to get back, and why do n''t you say you are glad to see me?"
61486Well, then, what made you be such a dunce as to capture the wrong boy?
61486Well, they tried it, and how did they come out?
61486Were you shanghaied, too?"
61486What are we wasting time here for?"
61486What club do you belong to?"
61486What did you do it with?
61486What do you say, captain?
61486What do you say, captain?"
61486What do you think we had best do?"
61486What do you want?"
61486What have you been up to?"
61486What have you to say about it?
61486What in the world did it mean?
61486What is his other name?"
61486What is it, Jobson?"
61486What is there to hinder me from keeping the whole of it?
61486What made you go there?"
61486What shall I do with it?
61486What sort of clothes is them, any way, that you just took off?
61486What would Joe and Arthur think when they missed him, and what would they do about it?
61486What would any craft want to run from a fair sailing wind like that for?
61486What''s the matter?"
61486What''s the matter?"
61486What''s the odds so long as one has the whole road to wobble in?"
61486What''s the reason you do n''t want to see any news- gatherers?
61486What''s the use of playing off in that way?
61486What''s this and this, and those pieces of timber over there?"
61486What''s writ onto this here paper will clear us, wo n''t it, sir?"
61486When Joe glanced at his mother''s letter beginning:"My dear boy, how could you do it?
61486Where are my friends?
61486Where are those friends of mine?"
61486Where are you going?
61486Where did he go in such haste?"
61486Where did you say you was going to stop to- night?"
61486Where do you stop when you get there, seeing there ai n''t no hotel to put up at?"
61486Where has Colonel Shelly gone, and when is he expected to return?"
61486Where has Matt been with those men who are going to make the Buster band rich when they return?"
61486Where is she now?"
61486Where''s the cash?"
61486Which one was it?"
61486Which way shall we start?"
61486Who else should it be?"
61486Who is that boy we just left in the cabin?"
61486Who is this chap who looks so much like Rowe, and what are you going to do with him?"
61486Who knows but it will drive us away too?
61486Who shut up the other one for you?"
61486Who''s been at you?"
61486Who''s got a cup handy?"
61486Why ca n''t you stay there and be contented?
61486Why did n''t he walk the floor and shake his fists in the air and utter threats, and in various other ways act as if he had taken leave of his senses?
61486Why did n''t the engineers cut out more of the hill on the opposite side and put it farther-- eh?"
61486Why did n''t you go down and pitch him into the ravine?"
61486Why did n''t you let yourself go down, like you''d oughter?"
61486Why did n''t you tell me this long ago?"
61486Why did n''t you wake me up last night, instead of going to bed there on the platform?"
61486Will yees git aff the track?"
61486Will you let some tired sailor- men aboard of you to ride in?
61486Will you luff long enough to let me and my crew get into our boat and shove off?"
61486Will you?
61486Would Daily and his men permit them to leave when they got ready?
61486Would his slumber have been as peaceful as it was if he he had known what was going on outside the house?
61486Would they want him disgraced by the revelations Matt would be sure to make if he were brought before a court to be tried for his crimes?
61486Would you be friendly to him or feel like shielding him from punishment?"
61486You are not afraid of a capful of wind, I hope?"
61486You do n''t live in the city?
61486You do n''t pretend to deny yourself, do you?
61486You got into the scrape and you had to get out, did n''t you?
61486You have had a pretty rough experience, have you not?"
61486You''ll bear watching, wo n''t you?"
61486Your actions proved that you did not think you were going to be shanghaied yourselves-- what are you looking for?"
61486and I can tip Tony and Bob the wink and have them go too?"
61486and him a landsman that do n''t know one side of the deck from t''other?
61486did they tell you about it?"
61486or do they go through that opening close to the mast?
61486said the officer again,"what''s the use of my wasting my time with you?
23208A greater conquest than_ mine_?
23208A letter from daddy?
23208A rare coin, you say?
23208A_ what_?
23208Ai n''t Janice tol''ye?
23208Ai n''t been an eperdemic o''smallpox broke out, has there?
23208Ai n''t it too bad? 23208 Ai n''t thet jes''like ye, Almiry-- goin''off at ha''f cock thet- a- way?
23208Ai n''t willin''ter give the young feller a chance''t at all, heh?
23208Ai n''t ye heard how I dumped m''load-- an''Josephus-- inter the lake?
23208And are they sure Mr. Haley was in there?
23208And are you interested in such sparring encounters?
23208And how came you down this way?
23208And let the thief git away with''em?
23208And was Hopewell their only child?
23208Another case of speeding, Janice Day?
23208Are-- are you sure? 23208 At Narnay?"
23208At it ag''in, air ye, Marty?
23208At once?
23208Be you goin''ter wait till yer neighbors put ye out of a bad business, an''then try ter take credit ter yerself that ye gin it up? 23208 Begin what with Walky?"
23208But his family? 23208 But it''s nothing more than a dance, is it?"
23208But what about Hopewell?
23208But what are we goin''ter do, Jason?
23208But what is poor Nelson to do? 23208 Ca n''t the doctor help her?"
23208Ca n''t you help him?
23208Can it be that Lem Parraday or his barkeeper would trust them for drink?
23208Can nothing be done to save it? 23208 D''ye know,"jerked out Walky, with his head on one side and his eyes screwed up,"that I b''lieve Josephus agrees with ye?"
23208D''yeou s''pose Sarah wanted to go trapesing all over the airth, ev''ry time Abraham wanted ter change his habitation?
23208Did I say I was in the habit of going into Lem Parraday''s bar and spending my month''s salary in fiery waters?
23208Did n''t he make a good thing out of the violin transaction?
23208Did ye notice Marm''s new bonnet? 23208 Did you catch the worm this morning?"
23208Did you give her a gold piece-- a ten dollar gold piece-- in the change?
23208Do n''t he know we all air sufferin''with him?
23208Do n''t ye know that''s one of the rarest issues of ten dollar coins in existence? 23208 Do n''t ye see what I am after?
23208Do n''t you have the doctor for her?
23208Do n''t you remember how you came by it?
23208Do n''t you s''pose I knew what I was about last night? 23208 Do n''t you see my lookers?
23208Do n''t you see the date on it?
23208Do you believe so, Frank?
23208Do you know, these fellows do n''t want to drink? 23208 Do you mean Jack Besmith?"
23208Do you mean you are going clear over the mountain after that drunken Narnay?
23208Do you really believe so?
23208Do you really believe so?
23208Do you see that?
23208Do you suppose Mrs. Drugg would go down there after him?
23208Do you? 23208 Down at the Inn?"
23208Eh? 23208 Frank,"she whispered to Bowman, there in the front of the dusky store,"Frank, what shall we do?"
23208Getting me out of the Inn?
23208Got a job, Jim?
23208Guess you feel better-- heh?
23208Has Mr. Trimmins a big gang at work?
23208Has somebody got ahead of you in circulating a particularly juicy bit of gossip?
23208Have they found out?
23208Have you been around by the Lower Road where my gang is working?
23208Have you paid them lately, Sir?
23208He-- he is your father?
23208Hear the woman, will ye?
23208Heh?
23208Here_ who_ is? 23208 Hopewell has n''t been sellin''her Paris green for buckwheat flour, has he?
23208How about making good with that pretty daughter of Vice President Harrison''s?
23208How about that, Cross Moore? 23208 How about your example, Walky?"
23208How air her poor eyes?
23208How am I different from other girls?
23208How are those men getting on in your wood lot, Elder?
23208How d''ye know so much?
23208How did this here sufferin- yet l''arn so much about the tribes o''men? 23208 How fur did you haf to travel, Walky?"
23208How goes the battle, Janice?
23208How many are there of you, Sophie?
23208How much do you want?
23208How much?
23208How would you have felt, Mr. Dexter, if they really were yours?
23208How''ll I get him out?
23208How''s his fambly?
23208How''s the going?
23208Huh?
23208Huh?
23208Huh?
23208Hullo, Jimmy Gallagher, what you want?
23208Hunting a lodging? 23208 I can bring out the baby if I wrap her up good, ca n''t I, Marm?"
23208I declare, Miz Scattergood,said Aunt''Mira, with interest,"you here at this time o''night?
23208I suppose if I do n''t go ahead in the matter, the railroad will never get its branch road built into Polktown?
23208I want to know if_ you_ would mock at that poor man on the street?
23208I wonder if he can be the customer that Joe Bodley speaks of? 23208 I wonder if it can be_ did_?"
23208I wonder?
23208I wonder?
23208I''m a- backin''over the dump, ai n''t I? 23208 In what way?"
23208Including the liberty to get drunk-- and the children to follow the example of the grown men?
23208Indeed?
23208Is Mr. Drugg going to be away all night?
23208Is Mrs. Trimmins well? 23208 Is he Jack Besmith?"
23208Is he there?
23208Is n''t it dreadful that they should have taken up the selling of liquor there?
23208Is that one of them?
23208Is this it?
23208Is_ that_ liberty so precious?
23208Joe Pellet and Crawford there?
23208Lectures on coins?
23208Lectures?
23208List of them coins? 23208 Lost your taste for a man''s drink?"
23208Mamma''Rill,Lottie coaxed, patting her step- mother''s pink cheek,"you''ll let me sit up longer,''cause Janice is here-- won''t you?"
23208Marty,Janice put in quickly, before the bickering could go any further,"did you see little Lottie?
23208Me? 23208 Meaning me?"
23208Mr. Cross Moore?
23208No? 23208 No?
23208No?
23208No?
23208Nor anybody else?
23208Now, Janice,she suddenly heard Frank Bowman say,"what shall we do?"
23208Now, how about that fiddle, Hopewell? 23208 On the haouse?"
23208One of the''old masters,''eh?
23208Only a dollar?
23208S''pose he thinks there''s any more money in there ter steal?
23208Schoolhouse locked?
23208See my new dress? 23208 She changed a bill with you, did n''t she?"
23208She''d be a good''un ter tell secrets to, would n''t she?
23208Sit here an''twiddle our thumbs, and let that feller''t owns the coins come down on us for their value?
23208So, you wo n''t let go, eh?
23208Something to straighten him up-- eh?
23208Sugar- coated pills?
23208Suppose Sim Howell were your boy? 23208 Sure about this here janitor?"
23208Surely Hopewell is n''t making_ all_ that-- that music?
23208Tell her what?
23208That Hopewell''s become a toper and beats his wife?
23208That Lottie is truly going blind?
23208That Nelson Haley would run away?
23208That horrid old Jim Narnay-- you know him?
23208That''s what you wanted to do, was n''t it?
23208The Threads?
23208The coins?
23208Then Hopewell Drugg has been in the habit of drinking?
23208Then it is war between us?
23208Then they know who is the thief at last?
23208Then what can it be that has caused the trouble?
23208Then what do they accuse him of?
23208They ai n''t goin''ter send Mr. Haley to jail without a trial?
23208They ai n''t none o''them sick, be they?
23208They knew the agreement before they started in with you on the job, did n''t they?
23208To that awful bartender?
23208Tricks?
23208Twenty- two''s the best you kin do?
23208Wal, Jase Day, you''re so smart,drawled Cross Moore,"who d''ye reckon could ha''took the coins?"
23208Wal,drawled Uncle Jason,"it ai n''t so serious; I s''pose, but what you kin take bail for him?
23208Wal--''tain''t, is it?
23208Walky,he drawled,"what was the very hardest dollar you ever airned?
23208Want me to go any further with you?
23208Was I sick? 23208 Was my wife just in here?"
23208Was ye seein''double when ye did that trick?
23208Was you fresh from Lem Parraday''s bar when you backed the old feller over the dock?
23208Were n''t you and your papa lucky to get such a mamma?
23208What ca n''t? 23208 What can we do?"
23208What chance had you to oppose Lem Parraday''s license?
23208What d''ye know about this?
23208What d''ye know about_ that_?
23208What d''ye s''pose he''s after now?
23208What d''ye think''s happened ter that Lottie Drugg?
23208What d''yeou think of them fule committeemen startin''this yarn abeout Nelson Haley?
23208What did I tell ye? 23208 What did I want?"
23208What did he say?
23208What did he say?
23208What did he want to drink now for?
23208What did you do with the trays?
23208What did you want to buy, Frank?
23208What do folks say about it, Walky?
23208What do you make of it?
23208What do you mean, Jase Day?
23208What do you mean, Marty Day? 23208 What do you mean, Walky?"
23208What do you mean? 23208 What ever did you do?"
23208What ever do ye mean, Jason Day?
23208What good can it do? 23208 What good does it do you to go to school?
23208What good will money be to him if he''s stood up against one o''them dough walls and shot at by a lot of slantindicular- eyed heathen?
23208What have you to trouble you? 23208 What if there was?"
23208What in good gracious is the matter now?
23208What in tarnation is it, then, Dad?
23208What is it, Jimmy? 23208 What is it, Marty Day?"
23208What is it, Narnay?
23208What is one of the things you have learned?
23208What is the matter now, Walky?
23208What is the matter with Joe Bodley now, Walky?
23208What is the matter with him?
23208What is the matter, Janice?
23208What is the matter, Janice?
23208What kind of dance is it?
23208What lemonade was this, Hopewell?
23208What men-- and what lot?
23208What mystery?
23208What new man?
23208What was they wuth?
23208What were all you younkers out o''school so early for, Marty?
23208What will he give for it?
23208What women, Walky?
23208What ye got there?
23208What ye got there?
23208What you beauing about that half- baked critter for? 23208 What''s Hopewell givin''for eggs to- day?"
23208What''s Marty fighting about now?
23208What''s a drink or two? 23208 What''s dreadful?
23208What''s eatin''on you, Maw?
23208What''s going to be done about this liquor selling, anyway?
23208What''s got ev''rybody? 23208 What''s happened to Hopewell?"
23208What''s happened?
23208What''s that, child?
23208What''s that? 23208 What''s that?"
23208What''s that?
23208What''s the matter o''that feller? 23208 What''s the matter of you folks?"
23208What''s the matter with Lottie Drugg?
23208What''s the matter with you lately, Walky?
23208What''s the matter with you? 23208 What''s this?
23208What''s this? 23208 What''s yours, Mister?"
23208What?
23208What?
23208Whatcher wanter talk that way for right in front of Janice? 23208 When I asked you,''How goes the battle?''
23208Where did I get the money? 23208 Where is the dance?"
23208Where they are going to have the Assembly Ball?
23208Where''d you git it, Hopewell?
23208Where''s your pop gone?
23208Where-- where did I get the gold piece?
23208Who from?
23208Who gave it to you?
23208Who would_ you_ accuse?
23208Who''s that?
23208Who''s the janitor?
23208Who''s this, now? 23208 Who-- Jim Narnay''s family?"
23208Who_ did_ take''em?
23208Why ai n''t I?
23208Why burden yourself with other people''s troubles?
23208Why do n''t they look inside----"Inside o''what?
23208Why do you say that?
23208Why not take Mr. Drugg there and see if Massey can give him something? 23208 Why not?"
23208Why not?
23208Why not?
23208Why not?
23208Why shall we?
23208Why, do n''t you see?
23208Why, what''s happened ye?
23208Why-- why, what can_ I_ do about it? 23208 Why-- why-- Is it valuable?"
23208Why?
23208Why_ before_ Nelson entered?
23208Will you put the window lamps out before you go, dear?
23208Wish_ we''d_ knowed there was all that cash so free and open up here in the schoolhouse-- heh, Jim?
23208With that sign a- swingin''there, Janice Day?
23208With_ that_?
23208Ya- as, ai n''t she?
23208Ye ai n''t goin''ter sell yer fiddle?
23208Ye wonder what, Jase Day?
23208Ye would n''t think so, would ye? 23208 Yep?"
23208You ai n''t goin''back on Nelson?
23208You air wishin''us prosperity whilst Lem sells pizen to his feller men?
23208You do n''t mean that, Miss Janice?
23208You do n''t mean the liquor selling has done him harm?
23208You going sleuthing for the thief, Miss Janice?
23208You have seen him this way before?
23208You knowed I could tell it?
23208You were alone in the store?
23208You''ll stay?
23208You''re one smart young feller, now, ai n''t ye?
23208_ But what is in it?_cried Janice, turning pale.
23208_ My_ campaign?
23208_ What_? 23208 _ What_?"
23208''Member that time, Cross, when we all went fishin''down to Pine Cove?
23208''Rill said, in surprise,"has n''t he turned it over to the man he said he bought it for?"
23208Again?"
23208Ai n''t it_ awful_?"
23208Ai n''t no ring to it?
23208Air ye all deef here?"
23208All of them?"
23208Although, by good rights, I suppose a''foxy- looking''person should be red- haired, eh?"
23208Am I foolish?
23208An''''cause I chaw terbaccer, is ev''ry white- headed kid in town goin''ter take up chawin''as a habit?
23208An''what for?"
23208And he''s drunk?"
23208And how about the councilmen who voted to let him have it?"
23208And how could Nelson prove his innocence?
23208And my little Virginia and all the rest of them?"
23208And then he slumped right down and practically asked her:"What are_ you_ going to do about it?"
23208And what d''ye s''pose I found when I went into Hopewell Drugg''s?"
23208And what d''ye think?"
23208And who could blame him?
23208And who had given the gold piece to the man, in either case?
23208And why should he not love you?"
23208And you''ve moved up into this neighborhood?"
23208As Uncle Jason says, what''s money when his precious life is in danger?"
23208Back of the drugstore?
23208Be you crazy?"
23208Beaseley?"
23208Bodley?"
23208Bowman and I. I do not suppose you remember our getting you out of the Lake View Inn?"
23208Bowman gone home, Janice?"
23208Bowman gone?
23208But''fore ye do that, what''ll ye take for the fiddle-- lowest cash price?''
23208Can we do that?"
23208Circus in town?
23208Come to think of it----""Well?"
23208Could Juan Dicampa''s influence, now that he was dead, compass their safety?
23208Could she not escape it?
23208D''ye really want to sell it?"
23208D''yeou mean to tell me Cross Moore and Massey and them other men air perfect fules?"
23208Day?"
23208Dexter?"
23208Dexter?"
23208Dexter?"
23208Did he bring the coin with him, or did he obtain it after reaching town?
23208Did n''t I see him myself?
23208Did n''t he sarve-- how many was it?--fourteen year, for Rachel?"
23208Did ye hire a nincompoop, I wanter know?
23208Did you notice the''still''the major''s got on?"
23208Did_ you_ git that five dollar coin?"
23208Do n''t I know that?"
23208Do n''t you see my bag?"
23208Do you know who did it?"
23208Do you s''pose he hurts her?"
23208Drugg?"
23208Drugg?"
23208Drugg?"
23208Drugg?"
23208Haley?"
23208Haley?"
23208Haley?"
23208Haley?"
23208Has he taken leave of his senses, a- makin''of the night higeous in that- a- way?
23208Has he?"
23208Have a snifter?"
23208He said to Janice:"You see now, ca n''t you, why I can not teach any longer?
23208He''d never let that precious violin out of his own hands, would he?"
23208Hear the noise?"
23208Hopewell?"
23208How can you?
23208How long d''ye s''pose he''ll last, loggin?"
23208How much?''
23208How would you feel to know that, at his age, he had been intoxicated?"
23208I do n''t blame them for wondering:''What''s the use?''
23208I should worry about the hold it might get upon you----""As it has on Jim Narnay?"
23208I thought ye said once that no man in Polktown could best ye-- if ye put yer mind to it?"
23208I thought you had that fiddle sold before you went to Hopewell arter it?"
23208I wonder?"
23208I''spect she was a spinster lady?"
23208If I can make a lettle spec on the side, who''s business is it but my own?"
23208If I put up this here property that we got, an''--an''anything happens-- not that I say anythin''will happen-- where''d we be?"
23208If Juan Dicampa should be removed what, then, would happen to Broxton Day?
23208If it had plenty of nourishment_ now_?"
23208If this-- this---- If Mr. Haley did n''t give you the coin,_ who did_?"
23208Indeed, her voice was rather sharp as she asked:"Is what true?"
23208Indeed, where would he go-- to whom turn in his trouble?
23208Is it you?"
23208Is money wuth life?"
23208Is n''t it a shame the way they talk about him?"
23208Is n''t it late?"
23208Is n''t it pretty?
23208Is n''t she just the bestest Mamma''Rill that ever was?"
23208Is that so?"
23208Is that so?"
23208Is the name of the maker inside the violin?
23208Is there anything funny in a man like that?"
23208Is your father at home now?"
23208Is-- is it dead?"
23208Is-- is your papa always like that?"
23208Is_ that_ the trouble with the Besmith boy?"
23208It did not seem possible that Hopewell''s instrument could be one of these beautifully wrought violins of the masters; yet----"Who knows?"
23208It do n''t, hey?"
23208It sounds awful, do n''t it?"
23208It_ ca n''t_ be so bad-- can it, Jason?"
23208Jack Besmith again?
23208Janice flushed and her answer came sharply:"And how about the other half of Polktown?"
23208Janice hastened to ask, first of all,"is it true?"
23208Janice sipped her tea and, looking over the edge of her cup at him, asked:"Having much trouble, Elder, with your new man?"
23208Janice would have been glad to take somebody into her confidence in this matter; but who should it be?
23208Listen to that ditty, will ye?"
23208Lost consciousness?
23208Ma says she ai n''t sure we''ll raise her and''twould be no use namin''her if she ai n''t going to be raised, would it?"
23208Massey and them others has got to save their own hides, ai n''t they?"
23208Massey?"
23208Massey?"
23208May I, Auntie?"
23208Meanwhile Hopewell was saying to Janice:"Miss Janice, how do you come here?
23208Mrs. Scattergood ejaculated:"What did I tell ye?"
23208Narnay?"
23208Narnay?"
23208Narnay?"
23208Nevertheless, how did Jim Narnay get hold of a five dollar gold piece?
23208Not a snake so early in the year?"
23208Now tell him, if you please: Have I passed a gold piece over your counter since the robbery-- that piece, or any other?"
23208Now, nobody else knew about the coins being in town----""Who was here with you, Mr. Massey, when the coins were delivered to your keeping?"
23208Now, now, Janice, what had we better do?
23208Once or twice they''ve kicked over the traces and gone on a spree----""That was when you paid them?"
23208One o''your cheap jokes?"
23208Poole''s a wonderful doctor-- ain''t he?
23208Remember how he talked for the new schoolhouse?
23208Remember?"
23208S''pose Janice breaks down on the road?"
23208She_ is_ sick, is n''t she?"
23208Soft jobs?"
23208Still, what can ye expect of the young gals when their mothers are given up to folly and dissipation?
23208Suppose Nelson had gone to Millhampton immediately when he was called there?
23208Surely, you''ve heard abeout this drefful thing, ai n''t you?"
23208Tain''t never Walky a- singin''like that, is it?"
23208That them old hens is sayin''sech things?"
23208That would kinder be in your line, would n''t it, Massey?"
23208That you, Schoolmaster?
23208The poor little children?"
23208The question is: How are we going about it to save Nelson?"
23208Then she turned swiftly to the civil engineer again and whispered:"What is it about?
23208Then, with sudden curiosity, she added:"What has that drug clerk got to do with the janitor of the school building?"
23208They gave him something to drink down at the Inn-- at that dance where he was playing his violin-- and it has made him ill. Do n''t you_ see_?"
23208Trimmins and Jim Narnay and that Besmith boy?"
23208Trimmins?"
23208Walky getting a hack?"
23208Walky is pretty well screwed- up, is n''t he?
23208Was it possible that her father received the missives?
23208We dry fellers have walked over ye in great shape-- ain''t that so?"
23208We''ll set the examination for next Saturday, then?"
23208What about?
23208What are you doing away up here on the hill?"
23208What are you talking about?"
23208What business had he up here at her uncle''s sheepfold?
23208What can I do for you?"
23208What d''I keer whether he pays me money or not?
23208What d''ye mean?
23208What did I tell ye?"
23208What did I tell you?"
23208What did he want Hopewell''s violin for?"
23208What did he want?"
23208What did it mean?
23208What did you do?"
23208What for, do you suppose?"
23208What had Jack Besmith to do with Nelson Haley''s troubles?
23208What had happened?
23208What has happened?"
23208What is he doing here?"
23208What matter if the season does change?
23208What really ages one in this life?
23208What sort of lectures?"
23208What sort of talk is that?"
23208What would Broxton Day do in this case?"
23208What would become of her as she grew into girlhood and womanhood?
23208What ye goin''ter do, Mr. Haley, if ye do n''t teach?"
23208What''s going on?"
23208What''s he think he''s doin''--takin''a swimmin''lesson?"
23208What''s that?"
23208What''s the matter?"
23208What''s your price?"
23208What_ has_ happened to poor little Lottie?"
23208Where did you get this one, Hopewell-- where''d you get it, I say?"
23208Where ye goin''to-- ye crazy ol''critter?"
23208Where you going to, Cross Moore?"
23208Who d''ye mean, Janice Day?
23208Who ever told Walky Dexter''t he could sing?"
23208Who knows?"
23208Who paid it in to you?
23208Who said anythin''about Mr. Haley goin''ter jail?"
23208Who would read her letter now that the guerrilla chief was dead?
23208Why could n''t they let him alone?"
23208Why do n''t you look where you are going?"
23208Why excite hope in his mind only, perhaps, to have it crushed again?
23208Why should it Hopewell?"
23208Will it surely die?"
23208Will this fade?"
23208Would n''t it?"
23208Ye see, they had the coins----""_ Who_ had_ what_ coins?"
23208Yer fiddle, Hopewell?"
23208Yer mother do n''t know yer out, does she?
23208You ai n''t entirely a stranger here, eh?"
23208You do n''t_ approve_ of the use of liquor, do you?"
23208You do not show it now, when you persecute this young man----""''Persecute''?
23208You know?"
23208You''re your own man, ai n''t ye?
23208You''ve told the girl yer mind, ai n''t ye?"
23208You_ do n''t_ use alcoholic beverages, do you?"
23208_ Again_?
23208_ Not yer father?_"gasped Aunt''Mira, staring with near- sighted eyes down the shadowy path.
23208ai n''t that the meanest thing ye ever heard?"
23208ai n''t this a purty to- do?"
23208chirped the little old woman to Janice,"did n''t I allus say it was the fullishest thing ever heard of for them two to marry?
23208chuckled Walky,"Guess Massey wants all the change in town in his own till, heh?"
23208did he?"
23208do n''t be too hard on him, will you?"
23208do you really expect me to tell you?"
23208do you think they will_ let_ Nelson teach again in the Polktown school?"
23208ejaculated Walky,"who''s talkin''about lodges?
23208exclaimed the druggist;"where did you get it?"
23208gasped Janice,"what can this mean?"
23208grunted Uncle Jason,"who''s this singin''bird a- comin''up the hill?
23208he muttered,"what''s got into him, I''d like for to be told?"
23208how be ye?"
23208how can I think of that, when here poor''Rill and Hopewell are in trouble?"
23208is she as bad as all that?"
23208is that so?
23208is that you, Janice Day?
23208is that you, Nelson?
23208she cried,"can you clear Mr. Haley?
23208she cried,"what do you mean?
23208sounds jest like''The Haouse That Jack Built,''do n''t it?
23208steal them coins when he''s the only person''cept the janitor that''s knowed to have a key to the school building?
23208surely you do n''t think for a moment I accuse you of having stolen the coin collection-- or having guilty knowledge of the theft?"
23208that you, Massey?"
23208want anything down town?"
23208was it counterfeit?"
23208what are you saying?"
23208what d''ye call it?"
23208what do you mean?"
23208what do you mean?"
23208what do you think of that?
23208what ever are we going to do for him?"
23208what would the world be without us women?"
23208what ye goin''ter do with a feller that tells ev''rything he knows jest because he''s axed?"
23208what you tryin''to get at, young lady?"
23208what''s good grammar?"
23208what''s that?"
23208what''s the matter wi''you folks?"
23208what''s the matter with Dexter?"
23208what''s the matter with you, Marty Day?"
23208what''s the matter?"
23208what''s this?"
23208what''s this?"
23208who''s this here comin''aboard?"
23208who_ could_ ha''done it?"
23208would n''t that be fine?"
23208ye know where Mink Creek crosses the road to Kittridge''s, Jason?"
23208you goin''to drag us under suspicion, Jase?"
23208you mean Jim Narnay?"
23208you_ do n''t_, do you?"
54195''Portant business?
54195''S''that you Grit?
54195Ah, it''s you, is it?
54195Ai n''t I your stepfather, I''d like to know?
54195Ai n''t I? 54195 Am I also right in concluding that you are not squeamish as to how the money is earned?
54195And ca n''t guess?
54195And how much have you made now?
54195And how much of the money have you got left?
54195And how''s your mother?
54195And whatever we can get out of them is what they richly deserve to lose?
54195And where is he?
54195And whose fault is that?
54195And you find them all right?
54195Anything further?
54195Are Travers and I to go, too?
54195Are they gone, Grit?
54195Are we going now, papa?
54195Are you a friend of my stepson?
54195Are you going farther?
54195Are you going to let him keep it?
54195Are you going to put Grit Morris in my place?
54195Are you in any business, my young friend?
54195Are you ready to start?
54195Are you so unlucky, then?
54195Are you stopping at this hotel?
54195Are you sure it is my boat Phil had?
54195Are you sure there was as much as that?
54195Are you sure there were sixty dollars?
54195Are you taking a vacation?
54195Are you the ferry- boy?
54195Are you the owner of this house?
54195Are you willing to tell me who they are, Grit?
54195At your house?
54195Brandon''s wife is living, is n''t she?
54195Brandon,he said abruptly, summoning that worthy to his presence,"you have a son named Grit, have you not?"
54195But how is it? 54195 But you did n''t have a mother to take care of, did you, sir?"
54195But, Mr. Graves, why am I treated so harshly? 54195 By the way, Mr. Courtney"--Phil swelled with conscious pride at this designation--"do you know any one who would like to buy a boat?"
54195By the way, have you a quarter about you?
54195Ca n''t you get it for me?
54195Ca n''t you put a thousand dollars in the bank for me, so that the boatman ca n''t crow over me?
54195Ca n''t you put off going for a year, Grit?
54195Ca n''t you sell or mortgage it?
54195Ca n''t you wait till Mr. Jackson returns?
54195Can you go to the Parker House? 54195 Can you prove this, Phil Courtney?"
54195Can you tell me where are the bonds?
54195Carriage, sir?
54195Chester? 54195 Come and take supper with us, Grit, wo n''t you?"
54195Come, Willie,said the gentleman, addressing his little boy,"wo n''t you like to ride over in the boat?"
54195D''ye hear that, Brandon?
54195Did I say anything against it? 54195 Did Phil Courtney tell you I had it?"
54195Did any one send him?
54195Did he leave his day''s earnings with you?
54195Did he say anything to you?
54195Did he say where he got it?
54195Did he sell it to you?
54195Did he?
54195Did n''t you say you had more money than I?
54195Did they make any fuss?
54195Did you give him any money?
54195Did you have any trouble with him?
54195Did you hear that Mr. Brandon had got home?
54195Did you lend it to him?
54195Did you see anything of Mr. Brandon while you were gone?
54195Did you speak with him?
54195Did you spend it at the tavern?
54195Did you take it?
54195Did you tell him anything of our plans?
54195Do n''t you see? 54195 Do people make a great deal of money in Wall Street?"
54195Do you believe Carver to be dishonest, father?
54195Do you call these bonds?
54195Do you come from the tavern?
54195Do you defy me?
54195Do you doubt it, Miss Marion?
54195Do you doubt that I had a ticket?
54195Do you ever go out-- about the city, I mean?
54195Do you find it a paying business?
54195Do you go to- morrow morning?
54195Do you hear that ungrateful boy?
54195Do you hear that, Travers?
54195Do you intend to earn anything yourself?
54195Do you know him?
54195Do you know his wife?
54195Do you know, Grit,he said, on his return,"you have done a splendid day''s work?
54195Do you like to be with-- him?
54195Do you live in the city?
54195Do you live in this State?
54195Do you make it pay?
54195Do you make much, ferrying passengers across the river?
54195Do you row across often?
54195Do you think he will keep me here long?
54195Do you think there is any likelihood of your being appointed in his place?
54195Do you want to see me?
54195Do you want to take the bread out of a poor man''s mouth?
54195Does he live here?
54195Does he mean to live here?
54195Does it pay?
54195Does n''t he mean to do any work himself?
54195Does n''t it strike you as a little singular that such an offer should come from a stranger?
54195Does she miss me much?
54195Does that prevent his being honest?
54195From whom did it come?
54195From--_him_?
54195Grit?
54195Ha, does he owe you money?
54195Ha, you admit that, do you? 54195 Has he ever employed you?"
54195Has he, hey? 54195 Has she property?"
54195Has the boy got his boat back again?
54195Have n''t I always served the bank faithfully?
54195Have n''t they a regular bank messenger?
54195Have you always lived here?
54195Have you any brothers or sisters?
54195Have you anything in view?
54195Have you anything to say against it?
54195Have you bought it?
54195Have you dared to lay a finger upon him?
54195Have you examined the bonds?
54195Have you formed any plans for the future? 54195 Have you got so much?"
54195Have you had any passengers since we came over?
54195Have you made much money this mornin'', Grit?
54195He did n''t overhear you and Travers speaking of the matter, did he?
54195Honor bright?
54195How am I ever to wear it? 54195 How am I going round Portville bareheaded?"
54195How are you, Grit?
54195How are you, Jesse?
54195How can I ever thank you?
54195How can I part from you, Grit?
54195How can that be possible?
54195How can that be? 54195 How can they expect you to be honest, when they treat you in so niggardly a manner?"
54195How can you tell my size?
54195How dare you treat my friend Travers so rudely?
54195How did Grit happen to show his money?
54195How did I drive you to it?
54195How did you find out?
54195How did you happen to discover the entrance?
54195How did you learn this?
54195How do I know but you two have secured the bonds, and palmed off this dummy upon me?
54195How do you know this?
54195How do you know what sort of a proposal I should make?
54195How do you know?
54195How does he appear?
54195How does he think you are to supply him with money, when he has left you to take care of yourself all these years?
54195How far is Essex Street from here?
54195How is it?
54195How is that?
54195How it all this to end?
54195How long have we got to submit to this?
54195How much did you say he had?
54195How much have you earned now?
54195How much, for instance?
54195How often have I told you to let in nobody? 54195 How old are you?"
54195How''s that?
54195How?
54195I can tell you something about him that may chill your ardor? 54195 I say, Mrs. B., does he earn much money that way?"
54195I say, Mrs. B., is dinner almost ready? 54195 I say, boy,"said he,"do you know a man named Brandon that has recently gone to Chester?"
54195I suppose he did show more?
54195I suppose we shall go on the same train?
54195I suppose you and Phil know each other very well?
54195I wonder how this Mr. Weaver came to hear of you?
54195I wonder what he means to do?
54195I wonder who it can be from?
54195If it is yours, where did you get it?
54195If you think-- hic-- that I''ve been drinking Mrs. B., you''re mistaken; ai n''t she, Travers?
54195In what capacity?
54195Indeed?
54195Invite Grit Morris?
54195Is Colonel Johnson in?
54195Is Ephraim Carver likely to lose his situation as bank messenger?
54195Is any time better than the present?
54195Is he a friend of yours?
54195Is he-- the same kind of a man as yourself?
54195Is he? 54195 Is it any of your business?"
54195Is it possible that Phil would play me such a trick?
54195Is it possible that any part of our plan has leaked out? 54195 Is it possible the villain has fooled us?"
54195Is it possible?
54195Is it you, Travers?
54195Is n''t it the boat in which I carried you across the river yesterday?
54195Is n''t that the_ Water Lily_?
54195Is n''t this a new plan?
54195Is that remark a compliment to me-- or him?
54195Is that so?
54195Is that the cub?
54195Is that your real name?
54195Is that-- the cub?
54195Is the seat beside you taken?
54195Is there any street- car line that goes there?
54195Is this man-- Colonel Johnson-- any relation of yours?
54195Is this the way you talk to your father, you impertinent boy?
54195Is this your business, ferrying passengers across the river?
54195Is your father dead?
54195Is your name really Grit?
54195It''s nothing wrong, I hope, Grit?
54195Let me see, how long have you been in the employ of the bank?
54195May I ask your name?
54195May I help you in?
54195May I see the letter, mother?
54195May I see this letter?
54195Mother,said Grit quietly,"will you be kind enough to go up- stairs for five minutes?
54195Mr. Brandon, what have you done to Grit?
54195Mr. Brandon,she said, with flashing eyes,"what do you mean?
54195Mr. Brandon? 54195 Mr. Green-- the landlord of the hotel?
54195Mr. Travers,he said, with cool determination, turning toward the intruder,"did you hear me say that my mother desired you to leave the house?"
54195My frien''Brandon wants me to stay-- don''t you, Brandon?
54195No; do you?
54195No; what business had he in Boston?
54195Not here yet?
54195Now, how soon can you go to New York?
54195Now,said he quickly,"have you discovered anything that will be of service to me?"
54195Of what nature?
54195Of what sort?
54195Oh I why did he ever come back? 54195 Oh, it''s you, is it?"
54195Oh, there is a stepfather, then? 54195 Once more, are you going to give me the money you have in your pocket?"
54195One thing more, Grit, how did you come to hear of their plan?
54195Out already?
54195Papa, will you do me a favor?
54195Say, what are you here for?
54195Shall I explore it?
54195Shall I lend you my hat?
54195Shall you have any errand for me this week?
54195Shall you see the boy?
54195She has n''t gone and left me, just when I''ve come home after an absence of five years? 54195 So far, so good, but what of the bonds?
54195So it was a boy, was it?
54195So you heard I had sixty dollars?
54195So you''ve come home?
54195So your name is Harry Morris?
54195Spunky, eh?
54195Tell me why this question occurs to you, Grit?
54195That depends on circumstances?
54195That''s where my friend Brandon lives, is n''t it?
54195The boy?
54195Then how did you come by it?
54195Then what business had you to cut the rope and carry it off?
54195Then where are the bonds?
54195Then why do you submit to it, Brandon? 54195 Then you do n''t wish me to stay?"
54195There''s a kid, is n''t there?
54195They did n''t question you about the parcel you brought them?
54195To spend for liquor, I suppose?
54195To what boat do I allude?
54195To what boat do you allude?
54195Tolerably so, but I presume woolen manufacturing is better?
54195Very well; what did the boy agree to give you for bringing this note?
54195Well, Grit, how is business to- day?
54195Well, Marion, how much is there?
54195Well, colonel, how goes it?
54195Well, mother, what is it?
54195Well, mother, what is it?
54195Well, why do n''t you answer my question?
54195Well?
54195Were you born here?
54195Were you born in the city, sir?
54195Wha-- what''s all this, Grit?
54195What are they going to do with me, I wonder?
54195What are you doing here?
54195What are you going to do about it, Grit?
54195What are you going to do about it?
54195What are you going to do about it?
54195What are you going to do for a boat to ferry your passengers?
54195What are you laughing at, you boatman?
54195What boat do you refer to?
54195What boy is it?
54195What brings you here?
54195What can have become of it?
54195What can it all mean?
54195What can we do with it?
54195What can we do, Grit?
54195What did he say?
54195What did the package contain?
54195What did you do?
54195What did you forget, mother?
54195What difference will that make, mother? 54195 What do I care about seventeen dollars?"
54195What do you do?
54195What do you mean by the rest of my money?
54195What do you mean, Colonel? 54195 What do you mean, Grit?"
54195What do you mean?
54195What do you want me to write?
54195What do you want?
54195What do you wish me to do?
54195What does all this mean? 54195 What does all this mean?"
54195What does he mean?
54195What does it mean?
54195What does this mean?
54195What does this mean?
54195What foolish idea have you got in your head?
54195What good would that do, Grit?
54195What have these men been doing?
54195What have you got to do?
54195What is it, Grit?
54195What is it, Grit?
54195What is it, then, you fear, mother?
54195What is it?
54195What is it?
54195What is it?
54195What is it?
54195What is that, sir?
54195What is that?
54195What is the name of this man you have brought into the house?
54195What is your business here, sir?
54195What is your fare?
54195What is your name?
54195What is your name?
54195What is your name?
54195What is your real name?
54195What is yours?
54195What kind of a boy is he?
54195What makes you think so?
54195What shall we do, Grit?
54195What sort of a chance is it?
54195What time is it?
54195What took you in there?
54195What will Phil do?
54195What will Phil say when he learns that I have been the guest of his fashionable relatives in Boston?
54195What will your mother say?
54195What''ll you take?
54195What''s a dollar? 54195 What''s his name?"
54195What''s his name?
54195What''s it all about, Grit?
54195What''s the use of that?
54195What''s wanted now?
54195What''s wanted?
54195What''s your name?
54195What''s your other name?
54195What, has he been complimenting you?
54195When did you get out?
54195When do you want me to go, sir?
54195When shall you see your friend Brandon, as you call him?
54195When you think best, sir?
54195Where are you going, Grit?
54195Where are you going?
54195Where are your folks?
54195Where did you get that boat, Grit?
54195Where did you pick up this youngster?
54195Where do I keep it? 54195 Where do you keep your money, you young cub?"
54195Where do you live?
54195Where do you propose to go?
54195Where is Grit?
54195Where is Mr. Brandon? 54195 Where is he now?"
54195Where is he, mother?
54195Where is he?
54195Where is he?
54195Where is the rest of your money?
54195Where is your stepfather?
54195Where''s he gone?
54195Where''s my frien''Travers?
54195Where''s the cub?
54195Where''s the old lady?
54195Where? 54195 Where?"
54195Where?
54195Who are you, then?
54195Who can have taken it?
54195Who can it be from?
54195Who is it?
54195Who is it?
54195Who is that man?
54195Who let him in?
54195Who told you I had anything to conceal?
54195Who wants you to sell on credit?
54195Who was the other conspirator, Grit?
54195Whom shall I inquire for?
54195Whom, for instance?
54195Whose boat is it now?
54195Whose money is that?
54195Why did n''t Mr. Graves get me to attend to his business?
54195Why did n''t you call me?
54195Why did n''t you wait for me?
54195Why did you want to know the width of the room?
54195Why do I? 54195 Why do n''t you let me in?"
54195Why do n''t you make him give it to you?
54195Why do n''t you run away?
54195Why is n''t it?
54195Why on earth should the messenger reveal this news to a stranger?
54195Why should you be surprised, mother? 54195 Why should you try to help it?
54195Why should you?
54195Why so soon? 54195 Why was he not employed?
54195Why, would n''t he behave well?
54195Why? 54195 Why?
54195Why?
54195Why?
54195Why?
54195Why?
54195Will he make things disagreeable for you?
54195Will that do?
54195Will they take me at the tavern?
54195Will you carry a message for me to the Parker House?
54195Will you go away, then, and give up troubling us?
54195Will your mother move from Pine Point?
54195Willie, will you stay here while I go after your other clothes?
54195Without his wife''s consent?
54195Wo n''t he be willing to work?
54195Wo n''t you go in with me?
54195Wo n''t you lend me two dollars? 54195 Wonder if Grit has found out about his boat?"
54195Would n''t I look like a fool, going round the streets with a girl''s hat on?
54195Would n''t I?
54195Would you like five dollars more?
54195Yes, did n''t you know he had been to Boston?
54195Yes, why not?
54195You ai n''t afraid I wo n''t pay you?
54195You ai n''t going to stay, are you?
54195You are not going to tie my feet, too, are you?
54195You could n''t lend me any more, could you?
54195You did n''t expect to see me?
54195You did n''t happen to meet Grit Morris there, did you?
54195You did n''t think I had so much-- eh, Grit?
54195You do n''t mean to say that boy is your stepson?
54195You do n''t mean to say that he gave you sixty dollars?
54195You do n''t mean to say that you have sixty dollars of your own?
54195You do n''t mean to say,exclaimed that young man,"that Grit Morris was sent to Boston in charge of thirty thousand dollars in bonds?"
54195You do n''t think the bank people did it, do you?
54195You have found it a light, easy position, have you not?
54195You have n''t got the sixty dollars with you?
54195You have seen Brandon and Travers, I suppose?
54195You mean to send me?
54195You think, then, I was right in staying away, Grit?
54195You will take the package?
54195You will write me often, Grit?
54195You will, hey? 54195 You wo n''t challenge him, will you, Grit?"
54195You''ll be sure to give me the money?
54195You''ll give your consent, then, mother?
54195You''re boss in your own house, ai n''t you?
54195You''ve been to Boston lately, have n''t you?
54195Your stepfather?
54195---- Essex Street?"
54195Ai n''t I your stepfather?"
54195Ai n''t the bonds there?"
54195Ai n''t you a match for a boy like that?
54195Am I to reap no benefit from my own conception?
54195And if so, how?
54195Are you aware that it is nearly seven o''clock, ma''am?"
54195Are you going my way, Grit?"
54195Are you going out this morning?"
54195Are you going to stay long in the city?"
54195As he leaned back in his chair, winking insolently at Mrs. Brandon, the poor woman cried:"Will no one relieve me from this insolent intruder?"
54195B.?"
54195B.?"
54195B.?"
54195B.?"
54195B.?"
54195Baker?"
54195Baker?"
54195Bancroft?"
54195Besides, shall I not have the care and responsibility of disposing of the bonds?
54195Brandon?"
54195Brandon?"
54195Brandon?"
54195Brandon?"
54195Brandon?"
54195But what I ca n''t understand is, where did a common boatman pick up so much money?"
54195But, to come back to business-- will you do me this favor?"
54195By the way, Phil, will you do me a favor?"
54195By the way, what put that idea into your head?"
54195Ca n''t you control a woman?"
54195Ca n''t you intercede for me?
54195Can I help you in any way?
54195Can you take us over?"
54195Could it be possible, he thought, that Colonel Johnson was the friend who had recommended him?
54195Courtney?"
54195Courtney?"
54195D''ye understand?"
54195Did he carry it in a roll of bills, or in a pocketbook?"
54195Did he mention any one that wanted to buy it?"
54195Did n''t you, sir?"
54195Did you ever hear of Wall Street?"
54195Did you speak to Phil?"
54195Do n''t you and he get along well together?"
54195Do n''t you know?"
54195Do n''t you think it genuine?"
54195Do n''t you think you would enjoy a trip of that sort?"
54195Do you ever find it so?"
54195Do you know him?"
54195Do you live here?"
54195Do you mean to say that is n''t the boat I have been rowing on this river for the last year?"
54195Do you think of any one?"
54195Do you think you would like to enter my office?"
54195Do you understand?"
54195Do you understand?"
54195Do you want me to choke you?"
54195Do you want to earn five thousand dollars?"
54195Do you want to see me any time to- morrow?"
54195Eh, Brandon?"
54195Graves?"
54195Grit?"
54195Hark you, my boy, when are you going back?"
54195Has he been in?"
54195Has n''t he been in?"
54195Have I done rightly in leaving him in the clutches of a company of unprincipled men?
54195Have n''t you looked into my purse?"
54195Have you any advice to offer as to the best course to pursue?"
54195Have you any change now?
54195Have you dared to illtreat him?
54195Have you got any of the money left?"
54195Have you got anything to say against it?"
54195Have you got your letter?"
54195He congratulated Grit on his success as an amateur detective, and then asked:"What are your plans, Grit?
54195He is very good- looking, do n''t you think so, Phil?"
54195He makes considerable money, does n''t he?"
54195He read on:"''How is the cub?
54195He waited till Phil was within earshot, and then he demanded sternly:"What are you doing there with my boat, Phil Courtney?"
54195He went on to Boston, I conclude?"
54195How am I to get along?"
54195How did Mr. Brandon behave after you moved here?"
54195How did you ever come to marry him, mother?"
54195How do you expect to live, now that you have taken away his boat?"
54195How do you make that out?"
54195How long are you going to stay in Boston?"
54195How much did he pay you?"
54195How much do you think it amounts to now?"
54195How much money have you made to- day, now?"
54195How much would you give, now, to have as much money as I carry in this pocketbook?"
54195How old are you?"
54195How soon shall I receive the money?"
54195How was he to get it into his own hands?
54195I believe you have a bank in the village?"
54195I can stay with you, ca n''t I?"
54195I hope you were firm?"
54195I presume you know where he has spent the last five years?"
54195I suppose you can understand that?"
54195I suppose you have heard of Fall River?"
54195I suppose you have relations in Boston?"
54195I sympathize with you; but how can I help it?"
54195I wonder what he would say if he knew how much money I have deposited with Fred Lawrence?"
54195I wonder where this passageway leads?"
54195I''m master here, d''ye hear that?"
54195I''ve got tired of this place, have n''t you?"
54195In a deep, sepulchral voice, he called out:"What are you doing there?"
54195Is he as independent and saucy as ever?
54195Is he popular?"
54195Is it the same----""The same you stole from me?
54195Is n''t it my plan?
54195Is n''t that so, Brandon?"
54195Is there a good hotel in Chester?"
54195Is-- is Mr. Brandon home?"
54195Jackson?"
54195Just then two gentlemen came down to Phil''s pier, and one asked:"Can you take us across to Portville?"
54195May I know the name of such an-- an ornament to his species?"
54195Morris?"
54195Mr. Courtney, what would you advise to be done in such an emergency?"
54195Mrs. Brandon got any property?"
54195Mrs. Brandon, is supper almost ready?"
54195Now, are you willing to go?"
54195Now, shall I see you again to- morrow morning?"
54195Once more, will you hand me that money?"
54195One thing more, will you take care to say as little as possible about my going away?
54195Probably you wo n''t care to remain a boatman?"
54195Say, old fellow, how are you?"
54195So you are not rich?"
54195So you know Brandon, do you?"
54195Suppose we pull to land?
54195That boy ca n''t have carried her off, can he?"
54195That''s my business, is n''t it?"
54195The question is, what shall we do?"
54195Then there are more than one?"
54195Then why should a boy like that be selected for so responsible a duty?
54195Then you are not willing to answer my questions?"
54195Then your mother is a widow?"
54195To whom did he sell it?"
54195To whom did you sell the boat?"
54195Was it possible that Brandon had dared to use violence to the boy?
54195Was it the only parcel Carver had?"
54195Weaver?"
54195Weaver?"
54195Well, how did they take it at the bank?"
54195Well, what does he say?"
54195What can it all mean?"
54195What could he do?
54195What could she say?
54195What d''ye say, Brandon?"
54195What devil''s mess have you made of the business?"
54195What did they mean by these references?
54195What do you call this?"
54195What do you say to that?"
54195What do you think he has been trying to persuade me to do, Grit?"
54195What does he look like?"
54195What had been done to Grit, and how had he been served?
54195What have you done to Grit?
54195What is the pay?"
54195What is your real name, since Grit is only a nickname?"
54195What makes you ask me that, colonel?"
54195What sort of a boy is Phil?
54195What will you say when I tell you that I have a chance to earn five thousand dollars in the next five days, eh?"
54195When can you leave the house?"
54195When did you receive it?"
54195Where are you going?"
54195Where are you staying, Travers?"
54195Where are you?"
54195Where can he keep it?"
54195Where did Grit keep the money?
54195Where did you get that boat?
54195Where did you leave him?"
54195Where did you meet him?"
54195Where did you think of staying?"
54195Where does my friend Brandon live?"
54195Where on earth did you get so much money, Grit?"
54195Where''s Grit?"
54195Where''s Mrs. B., and where''s supper?"
54195Who do you think robbed you?"
54195Who''d have thought it?
54195Why should you be sent in his place?"
54195Will you come?"
54195Will you promise not to attempt to escape?"
54195Willie, do you like to ride in the boat?"
54195Willing to go to Boston, where he had not been for five years?
54195Wo n''t Grit be mad when he hears what his stepfather has done?"
54195Wo n''t you go with me?"
54195You are not overburdened with conscientious scruples, eh?"
54195You can stand being found fault with for five thousand dollars, ca n''t you?"
54195You did n''t think I had so much money-- eh, Phil?"
54195You do n''t pretend to love him?"
54195You have n''t got five dollars to spare, have you?"
54195You know where it is, do n''t you?"
54195You never heard of Townsend''s Woolen Mill, I dare say?"
54195You wanted to keep it from me, did you?"
54195You wo n''t be a boatman all your life, I presume?"
54195You, I suppose, are too young to have business of any importance?"
54195asked Grit pointedly;"or do you expect to live on us?"
54195asked the president, in surprise,"and if so, what can you have to say in regard to it?"
54195have n''t you got an appetite?"
54195have n''t you got them?"
54195he ejaculated;"what does all this mean?
54195said Phil;"is n''t that Grit Morris''boat?"
54195said Philip triumphantly,"what have you to say now?"
54195said the passenger, bending his brows,"I do n''t want you to talk back to me-- do you hear?"
54195the president of the bank?"
54195whom have we here?"
54195yer ai n''t a cub, hey?"
54195you mean, then, to attempt to escape?"
