13724 | What will you do, then,he asked slowly and significantly,"when Colannah takes up arms against the British government? |
13724 | When I took the boy Jan Queetlee-- why do I call him thus, instead of by the name he has earned for himself, the noble Otasite of Tennessee Town? |

13724 | As Varney, half crouching on the ground, noted the latter in the dusk, he cried out precipitately,"Robbed you of what? |
13724 | Auween won gintsch pat_?" |
13724 | But after all, if a story is well told, why carp at slight anachorisms? |
13724 | But how did Amoyah know that already they had trodden those significant circles, each with his shadow? |
13724 | But how? |
13724 | But how? |
13724 | But what flout of Fate was this? |
13724 | Could a ray of guiding light be caught from without across this high, guarding barrier of tiers of seats? |
13724 | Could he hope, all unaccustomed here, to turn in that restricted space to retrace the way? |
13724 | Did I ever tell you this? |
13724 | Had he not best go to see at once about it? |

13724 | How many o''them big wathery tears have yez been after sheddin''into aich o''them lovely ca''tridges?" |
13724 | If I, who can choose, prefer it, why not you?" |
13724 | Ought she to have interfered, with what forces it was possible for her limited capacity to wield? |
13724 | Poaching?--shooting their wolf?" |
13724 | Quen''ajoute- t- il que Fulvie et Mà © lanie l''ont condamnà © sans l''avoir lu, et qu''il est ami de Fulvie et de Mà © lanie_?" |
13724 | Should she have so presumed? |
13724 | Then turning to O''Kimmon he asked point- blank,"Chee- a- koh- ga?" |
13724 | Was it right? |
13724 | Whence should a shadow fall? |
13724 | Who are they? |
13724 | Who is that who has just come?) |
13724 | Will you fight men of your own blood?" |
13724 | Would not the powder, the precious powder, be ruined? |
13724 | Would the commandant respond?" |
13724 | he asked again, in a soothing smooth cadence,"for what, my comrade, my benefactor for years, my best- beloved friend-- avenged on me for what? |
45708 | Are you sure of that? |
45708 | But is n''t it ever called''sour- gum''? |
45708 | But is n''t there a creek down in the valley ahead? |
45708 | By the first of April, should you say? |
45708 | Do you have whippoorwills here? |
45708 | Do you hear them right along the road? |
45708 | Do_ you_ like living here? |
45708 | From Washington? |
45708 | How early does the whippoorwill get here? |
45708 | It is easier to sit down than to saw wood, is n''t it? |
45708 | It is n''t a venomous snake, is it? |
45708 | That? |
45708 | The locuses are goin''it, this mornin'', ai n''t they? |
45708 | The locuses? |
45708 | Them moniment things they''ve put up,she said,"have you seen''em? |
45708 | Was n''t it a yellow- throated warbler? |
45708 | What do you call that? |
45708 | What good does it do? |
45708 | What was the noise like? |
45708 | What''s that? |
45708 | Where be you- uns from? |
45708 | Why is this called Bloody Pond? |
45708 | Why? |
45708 | You do not live here? |
45708 | _ Was_ that an indigo- bird? |
45708 | A phoebe came and perched at my elbow, dropping a curtsey with old- fashioned politeness by way of"How are you, sir?" |
45708 | After all,_ is_ it a poor traveler who turns again and again into the same path? |
45708 | Ai n''t they a sight to see?" |
45708 | Am I on Missionary Ridge or in the Crawford Notch? |
45708 | And had I seen the tower on the hill, she proceeded to ask,--an open iron structure,--and what did I think of_ that_? |
45708 | And how would elderly people live through long evenings if there were no exhilaration in the odd trick? |
45708 | And the next morning, when an enterprising, bright- faced white boy ran up to me with a"''Times,''sir? |
45708 | And was there any reasonable way of living there? |
45708 | But what is bad weather when the time is past? |
45708 | But_ was_ it new? |
45708 | Comparison as between birds so dissimilar is useless and out of place; but how shall a man avoid it? |
45708 | Could he not spare a day to take me about? |
45708 | Could that bird have also a note like the rose- breast''s? |
45708 | Did any one ever suspect the chickadee of such providence? |
45708 | Did he know another redbird, with black wings and tail? |
45708 | Did he mistake them for so many dead trees still standing on their own roots? |
45708 | Do n''t you hear''em?" |
45708 | Does she never remind him, I wonder, that there are some things whose price is far above rubies? |
45708 | Had I never eaten them? |
45708 | Have a''Times''?" |
45708 | Have you seen''em? |
45708 | I say labored and breathless; but, happily, the singer was unaware of his infirmity( or can it be I was wrong? |
45708 | If a native, led away by his wife, perhaps, puts a window into his new cabin, the neighbors say,"Oh, he is building a glass house, is n''t he?" |
45708 | In the duck''s primer one of the first questions is:"What is a man?" |
45708 | Men cut in a rock!--three of''em? |
45708 | Now, for the sake of being neighborly, I asked,"How''s the pig to- day?" |
45708 | Oh yes, there was a creek; but had I anything to drink out of? |
45708 | One day a ragged, bright- faced boy met me at the right moment, and I asked,"Did some one use to live in that house?" |
45708 | Pennsylvany?" |
45708 | Persimmons? |
45708 | Then, addressing General Gordon Granger, he said,''Did you order them up, Granger?'' |
45708 | There must be some wrennish quality about the Bewick''s song, it would seem: else how did I recognize it so promptly? |
45708 | Was it accessible? |
45708 | Was there a spring near by, where I could drink? |
45708 | Was there ever a man who did not take it as a matter of course that he should be wiser than the"lower animals"? |
45708 | What could_ he_ be fussing about in so unlikely a quarter? |
45708 | What did it look like?" |
45708 | What did she think of me, who had come all the way from Massachusetts? |
45708 | What dog would hunt if there were no excitement in overhauling the game? |
45708 | What had they to do with weather that makes a man hurry? |
45708 | What mattered it that all these men had perished, as it seemed, before their time?--that so many of them were lying in nameless graves? |
45708 | What more need be said? |
45708 | Where could the fellow have picked up such a ditty? |
45708 | Where is it? |
45708 | Where''s the gun? |
45708 | Whether is better, to read two good books once, or one good book twice? |
45708 | Who says that life is an old story? |
45708 | Who would not love to hear the music of all our birds a few millions of years hence? |
45708 | Would he tell me something about the country, especially about the roads, so that I might improve my scanty time to the best advantage? |
45708 | Yet she had but a vague idea of where Massachusetts was, I fancy; for pretty soon she asked,"Where did you say you was from? |

5306 | Ye knowed then, all the time, ez this stuff warn''t gold? |
5306 | Ye mean ter say ef ye he d the bone an''muscle ye''d knock me down, do ye? |
5306 | Ye''ll keep the secret? |
5306 | Ye''lows ez I ai n''t doin''right by Birt? |
5306 | And once-- why not again? |
5306 | And yet did she understand? |
5306 | At last he said slowly,"Birt tole ye''bout''n it, eh?" |
5306 | But WAR it a haffen dozen? |
5306 | Byers saluted him gruffly,"whyn''t ye let we- uns know ez ye he d got back that thar grant o''yourn, ez hev sot the whole mounting catawampus? |
5306 | Could he deduce nothing from the tanner''s grin? |
5306 | DID his spectacles twinkle? |
5306 | Did n''t he, Tim?" |
5306 | Gold had been found in Tennessee-- why not here? |
5306 | Had he indeed, in some aberration, taken the grant? |
5306 | How d''ye know yerse''f?" |
5306 | Once he paused-- was that the bleat of a fawn, away down on the mountain''s slope? |
5306 | Only a few hours ago he was discharged under suspicion of dishonesty; why this sudden recall? |
5306 | Pig- wigs hearn ye talkin''''bout it at las'', and tole ye ez he he d it, I s''pose?" |
5306 | Something-- was it?-- SOMEBODY laughing in the darkness? |
5306 | Suddenly-- was the glistening yellow mineral taking fire? |
5306 | Then he asked suddenly,"An''whar war Rufe, an''Pete, an''Joe, ez YE he d ter go ter pickin''up of chips an''sech off''n the groun''?" |
5306 | Was it some tricksy spirit in his likeness that had peered through the chinking at Andy Byers? |
5306 | Was there a vibration of incredulity in his voice? |
5306 | Whar hev he disappeared ter?" |
5306 | What d''ye s''pose''t war?" |
5306 | What did ye''low I''d do?" |
5306 | Where was Birt? |
5306 | Which Griggs do ye call''Pig- wigs?''" |
5306 | Who was this stranger? |
5306 | Why had Nate not communicated with his partner about their proposed work? |
5306 | Ye know we counted ez that thar pit would n''t be opened ag''in fur a right smart time?" |
5306 | accusin''o''Birt wrongful, an''sech?" |
5306 | did she realize the loss of the mine? |
5306 | he called out, as soon as the small boy was inside the tanyard,"be you- uns SURE ez Nate said he''d come over by sun- up?" |
5306 | the Gov''nor o''the State?" |
5306 | vociferated the testy old man;"ai n''t I a- goin''ter? |
19776 | An''when will ye be sure o''that? |
19776 | An''ye say that ye too will stand by me? 19776 And how do you suppose that fact makes_ me_ feel?" |
19776 | And how do you suppose that_ I_ should think you could feel at all? |
19776 | And why not? |
19776 | At Crystal?... 19776 Bears_ growl_--didn''t you know that?" |
19776 | Did he ever have a thought that I did not know? |
19776 | Did you really hear something? |
19776 | Did you really intend to say it, to come back to me? |
19776 | Did you think I could n''t make it? |
19776 | Do n''t you think it is odd that Ned is so late? |
19776 | Do they head them advertisements''_ Suckers, Attention_''? |
19776 | Does it pain you? |
19776 | Does you- uns know that leetle foot? |
19776 | Got them on the run, did you? 19776 Has he fainted?" |
19776 | Have you any information about him? 19776 How are_ you_, old man?" |
19776 | How can you say that of me-- of_ me_? |
19776 | How can_ you_ believe that? |
19776 | How could I? 19776 How have I arrogated magnanimity, or anything else? |
19776 | Is it_ you_, Archie? 19776 Look- a- hyar, you two an''this woman will stan''up fur me when I gin myself up fur State''s evidence, ef I put ye on the track fur findin''Bubby? |
19776 | May I have the honor and pleasure of your company, madam? |
19776 | Snow? |
19776 | Then, Archibald Royston, Esquire, may I hope that_ you_ will favor me? |
19776 | This stone is the efflorescence of a limestone cavern, given to him, no doubt, but when and where? 19776 Throw him over the bluff, eh?" |
19776 | Well, that''s agreed, is it? 19776 Wh-- wh-- wh-- whut? |
19776 | What ails yer hearin''? |
19776 | What are you going to do, Lillian? |
19776 | What are you laughing about? |
19776 | What fur? 19776 What is all this?" |
19776 | What is it? |
19776 | What is the matter, then? |
19776 | What was it? |
19776 | What woman? |
19776 | What''s yer name, Squair? 19776 What_ is_ that?" |
19776 | What_ is_ that? |
19776 | Where did you last see him? |
19776 | Where is he now-- where is this child? |
19776 | Why do n''t ye tell yer name, Bubby? |
19776 | Why do n''t you say''currish''and be done with it? |
19776 | Why not? |
19776 | Why should you defer to their views, Lillian? 19776 Why, say, old Noah, did you ever see that kid?" |
19776 | Why, what are we thinking of? |
19776 | Wo n''t they be fur trackin''of_ him_? |
19776 | Would he not have shared his joy with every creature in the household? |
19776 | You both think I was wrong, do n''t you? |
19776 | You remember, Gladys, do n''t you, how he delighted in these pockets? 19776 You think it queer that they use''you- uns''in the singular number? |
19776 | ( at last a poignant cadence of pain) there was no train? |
19776 | Ai n''t her pretty? |
19776 | Ai n''t it our''n? |
19776 | Ai n''t the corn an''apples an''peaches our''n? |
19776 | And how is it that you did not know it, knowing his every thought?" |
19776 | And now, Mrs. Royston, shall we move on?" |
19776 | And what action was incumbent on her hostess, left to face this problem in this lonely country house in the dead hours of night? |
19776 | And why should he fear the law more than another? |
19776 | Are you ready to go now? |
19776 | But stop-- what is that?" |
19776 | But was n''t it too far? |
19776 | But were n''t the roads dreadful? |
19776 | But whither had blown the incense of that happy time? |
19776 | Cat got it?" |
19776 | Clenk exclaimed angrily, from his seat in the boat,"ai n''t ye got_ no_ human feelin''s, Jack Drann? |
19776 | Could he come to her at once, at her utmost need, and by the first train? |
19776 | Could he really drive across country? |
19776 | Crystal was not on a railroad at all? |
19776 | Did n''t we grow''em?--an''what right hev the gover''ment ter say we kin eat''em, but ca n''t bile''em-- eh? |
19776 | Do n''t you perceive that my duties as chaperon to those lovers should lie nearest my heart?" |
19776 | Do n''t you suppose it possible that you saw only your own moving reflection?" |
19776 | Do n''t you understand? |
19776 | Do you remember how he looked when I lifted the flap-- isn''t the embroidery lovely?--and put his dear little hand into his first pocket? |
19776 | Fifty miles? |
19776 | Had he not said only to- day that neither of them had aught to regret? |
19776 | Had she thought indeed that she could hold Julian Bayne''s heart through all vicissitudes of weal and woe, of time and change? |
19776 | Had you none, really?" |
19776 | Have n''t you yet had enough of ordering your life by the standards of others? |
19776 | Hello, Tucker, is that you?... |
19776 | How could I, Gladys?" |
19776 | How could five years work such change? |
19776 | How could they be so dull, so dense, as to harbor such a folly? |
19776 | How did it happen?" |
19776 | How was reparation possible? |
19776 | Is there anything wonderful in that? |
19776 | Lost two of my dogs-- yes, my fine, full- blooded hounds-- you remember Damon and Pythias? |
19776 | Meeting the gaze of the big, unafraid blue eyes, he asked at a venture in English,"And what is your name, young man?" |
19776 | Now tell me,_ where_ did you last see that child?" |
19776 | Oh, a fast horse? |
19776 | Oh, could he? |
19776 | Oh, how can I make them hear me? |
19776 | She was going to the mountains, to the mountains-- to meet what? |
19776 | Telephone exchange there?... |
19776 | Then to Lillian specially, as he took her hand,"Am I late?" |
19776 | Then why do you use''_ you_''in the singular number? |
19776 | Then-- for the scope of his cultivation did not include the civility of lifting his hat-- he said,"Which of ye two wimin hev los''a child?" |
19776 | Thirty miles from Shaftesville?... |
19776 | Was it all fictitious?--and was there something terrible to ensue when it should collapse? |
19776 | Was it not calculated to allure marauders and nighthawks to this lonely house? |
19776 | Was it she who had forfeited him, rather than he who had lost her? |
19776 | Was this what he had really felt through the long years of their separation? |
19776 | Whar''s yer tongue? |
19776 | What else indeed could he think? |
19776 | What had befallen his strong young hopes, his faith, his inspiration, that they had exhaled and left the air vapid and listless? |
19776 | What right had he ter bust our still an''break up our wu''m and pour our mash an''singlings out on the ground? |
19776 | What was it to him? |
19776 | What''s yer name?" |
19776 | Why do n''t you call the sheriff of the county?" |
19776 | Why must he needs bring tribute to her powers, flatter her ascendency in his life, by faltering before her casual presence? |
19776 | Why should he forgive? |
19776 | Why should you call up that-- man? |
19776 | Will you do me the favor to hire a responsible party there to bring the mare back?... |
19776 | You the widder?" |
19776 | You''ll look out for Fairy- foot?... |
31801 | A fawn? 31801 A fawn?" |
31801 | A food riot? 31801 And how did you know that I speak French?" |
31801 | And how do_ you_ know that I am French? |
31801 | And to- morrow-- and yet next day? |
31801 | And what does the great Earl of Loudon? 31801 And what of the torture, the knife, the fagot?" |
31801 | And where is he now? |
31801 | But do we really expect it? 31801 But how can we help it?" |
31801 | But if a wolf licks your hand, sir, would you pat him on the head? |
31801 | Child,said Mrs. Halsing, solemnly,"why did you ever come to the frontier?" |
31801 | Dispatches? |
31801 | Do you consider yourself so free, then? 31801 Have the French armed no Indian allies? |
31801 | Him? |
31801 | How can I sleep,--with this sense of responsibility? |
31801 | If we do not keep our word, how can we expect Oconostota to keep his word? |
31801 | In what capacity? |
31801 | John Stuart,he said,"have I not called you my friend? |
31801 | Known what better? |
31801 | May I tell my husband? |
31801 | Must they have twenty thrys to hit a big black buffalo? 31801 Now, Hamish,"he said, smiling behind the candle as he held the wax in it for the seal,"can you do as much again?" |
31801 | O''Flynn,he said,"do you deem this a fitting time to set the example of broils between the settlers and soldiers? |
31801 | Parlez vous? 31801 The tinder- box-- the flint-- where are they? |
31801 | The white captain calls on his friends-- and where are they? 31801 Was there a demonstration of the Indians last night, Captain?" |
31801 | What do you think of them? |
31801 | What do-- Choté-- old town? |
31801 | What message did he send? |
31801 | What prisoners? |
31801 | What was I to do, Odalie? |
31801 | What''s your name, my lad? |
31801 | What? |
31801 | Where go? |
31801 | Where is Sandy? 31801 Where, Fifine, where?" |
31801 | Where, Fifine? 31801 Where, Josephine? |
31801 | Where? 31801 Where?" |
31801 | Why could n''t they have brought some conveniences, such as knives and forks and cups and platters, instead of fool trifles? |
31801 | Why do n''t you say that in French, Odalie? |
31801 | Why preëmpt ill- fortune for them, John? |
31801 | Why should you care? |
31801 | Without seeing Sandy and Odalie? |
31801 | Would he allow you to risk yourself? |
31801 | You call on your friend-- where? |
31801 | You will go back to Colonel Montgomery at Fort Prince George with dispatches? |
31801 | You wo n''t wait for Governor Bull? 31801 A waving blotch of red leaves in the autumnal dusk,--what more natural? 31801 Alexander looked anxiously at his wife-- had she found the journey, then, so vexatious? 31801 And alas, what was their fate? 31801 And for what? 31801 And how had she selected so ill among her belongings as to what she should bring and what leave? 31801 And what did the Baron Des Johnnes? 31801 And what said Colonel Sumter? 31801 And what was there now at MacLeod Station? 31801 And what was this? 31801 And whence did they come? 31801 And whither did this unknown people go? 31801 And who so glad as Willinawaugh to lose naught of his satisfaction-- neither his material nor immaterial reward? 31801 And who were they? 31801 Are we here to wage war or to maintain peace? |
31801 | At the stockade? |
31801 | Besides, would they let you risk it again, even for them?" |
31801 | But even at the best could such an expedition reach them in time? |
31801 | Can not you strike a spark?" |
31801 | Did he fear treachery? |
31801 | Did they not do it first?" |
31801 | Did we not make our peace and smoke our pipe and give our belts of white wampum and sign names to the treaty we made with the white English? |
31801 | Do you call it freedom-- in the holy_ bonds_ of matrimony? |
31801 | Does this fidelity so clothe your body that it will not burn and crisp and crinkle in the anguish as of your hell? |
31801 | Flanzy?" |
31801 | For was not Montgomery instructed to offer them terms on_ his_ account only? |
31801 | Had he grounds to suspect any renewal of the English occupancy? |
31801 | Had he knowledge of forces now on the march in the expectation of raising the siege of Fort Loudon? |
31801 | Had his friend, his brother, deserved this? |
31801 | Have I not given all I possess of wealth to save your life? |
31801 | Have they broken into the smoke- house?" |
31801 | Have we any guarantee?" |
31801 | He gobbled a brisk and agitated imitation of the cry of the fowl, and then broke off to exclaim,"_ Quelle barbarie!_--eh, Odalie?" |
31801 | How could the bough stir? |
31801 | How should he have dreamed that Odalie''s little_ Vocabulaire Français_ would be more efficacious to save his life than his rifle and his deadly aim? |
31801 | MacLeod?" |
31801 | MacLeod?" |
31801 | Now do n''t ye know such wiles as he hev got for them must be deceit?" |
31801 | Odalie, trying to seem interested, demanded, lifting her eyes,"And what do women follow?" |
31801 | Some hole?" |
31801 | The men who had sung in the Christmas carols remembered old English ditties,--"How now, shepherd, what means that, Why that willow in thy hat?" |
31801 | Then exclaimed--"_Oh_, is n''t it droll, Fifine?" |
31801 | To make our fate certain? |
31801 | To see the fellows salaaming to the very ground as I came across the parade!--what are you doing to my frock, Captain Demeré?" |
31801 | Was he some slight thing,--_seequa, cheefto_, an opossum, a rabbit? |
31801 | Was_ Sekakee_ hungry? |
31801 | Were the Rush people poor and oppressed in Carolina? |
31801 | What more fearful? |
31801 | What more fearful?" |
31801 | What more fearful?"] |
31801 | What more wonderful? |
31801 | What need had the Tennessee Warrior for diplomacy? |
31801 | When?" |
31801 | Where did you see Willinawaugh?" |
31801 | Where is Odalie?" |
31801 | Will you volunteer?" |
31801 | Will your oath restore sight to your eyes when a red- hot iron has seared them?" |
31801 | Would the great chief, whose words in whatever language were of paramount importance, accept a money price? |
31801 | Ye must have seen it,"--lowering her voice,--"a love token?" |
31801 | [ Footnote F: Is it not so?] |
31801 | [ Illustration:"What more wonderful? |
31801 | _ Wahkane, wahkane!_ Was it not so when the treaty of Lyttleton was broken and Montgomery, the Terrible, came in his stead? |
31801 | _ Wahkane?_[F] Did we not join his cause and fight his battles and shed our blood in his wars against the French? |
31801 | _ Wahkane_, John Stuart,_ wahkane_? |
31801 | said the Cherokee,"and him?" |
31801 | who now so glad to protest that he would waive any personal gratification that stood in the way of utility to the Cherokee nation? |
20365 | ''Twarn''t a- beckonin'', war it? 20365 Air it your''n?" |
20365 | An''ef this brief wind war ter whurl the old church- house off''n the bluff an''down inter the valley whar- r-- would-- I-- be? |
20365 | An''how air the bread ter be raised? |

20365 | But what size is this Barney Pratt? |
20365 | Coggin, hey? |
20365 | D''ye know whose coat this kem off''n? |
20365 | Did Nick wear_ my_ coat down on the ledge, I wonder, an''git it tored? 20365 Did ye find the tur- r- key''s nest in the Conscripts''Hollow?" |
20365 | Did ye git it? |
20365 | Do you know where you lost this scrap? |
20365 | Do you want to come to school? |
20365 | Ef I go on this yerrand fur ye,he said, looking very sharp indeed,"will ye gimme one o''the whings of that thar wild tur- r- key?" |
20365 | Git what? |
20365 | Gobbler or hen? |
20365 | Hain''t I done promised ye not ter tech a drap o''liquor this Chris''mus day? |
20365 | Hain''t ye been doin''nothin''mean lately? |
20365 | He hev been thar all this time,--''kase he air tied thar, do n''t ye see? 20365 Hev Ethan fell off, sure enough?" |
20365 | Hev that thar boy gone ter bed? |
20365 | Hev ye been a- huntin''? |
20365 | How did ye git away, Barney?--how did ye git away? |
20365 | How did ye happen ter be hyar this time o''the night, ye limb o''Satan? |
20365 | How kem my coat ter be tored down thar on the ledge, close ter the Conscripts''Hollow, whar I hain''t been sence the cloth war wove? |
20365 | How kin we find that thar leetle hammer in sech a dark place? |
20365 | How long did it take''em to get all those heavy things down into the Conscripts''Hollow,--hey, bub? |
20365 | How''d it happen ter be stickin''ter them blackberry- bushes on the ledge? |
20365 | How''d she make out ter fotch the little tur- r- keys up hyar, when they war hatched? 20365 Is that so?" |
20365 | It''s airish up hyar, ai n''t it? |
20365 | Just ter enjye sottin''''em up agin? 20365 Little Jeff Carew,--you''ve seen that puny little man a- many a time-- haven''t you, Jim? |
20365 | M''ria,said the blacksmith meekly to his wife,"hev ye tuk notice how the gyarden truck air a- thrivin''? |
20365 | Right smart of an idjit, now, ai n''t ye? |
20365 | Thad tuk the filly, ye say fur true? |
20365 | Then what ailed ye ter go an''tell sech a lie ter Gryce''s boys las''night jes''down thar outside o''the shop? |
20365 | Then what made ye run, yander on the slope, when ye seen thar war somebody on the ledge? |
20365 | Waal, sonny? |
20365 | Waal, stranger, how''s yer filly? |
20365 | Waal, waal,in a pensive voice,"so ye ai n''t him? |
20365 | Waal-- air ye disabled anywhar so ez ye ca n''t shet it, eh? |
20365 | Whar be ye a- takin''of us now? |
20365 | Whar did ye happen ter see Ethan? |
20365 | Whar''bouts? |
20365 | What ails dad''s hand? |
20365 | What ails ye, Nick? 20365 What ails ye, Steve?" |
20365 | What ails ye, boy? 20365 What air ye a- doin''of up thar on the Old Man''s Chimney?" |
20365 | What air ye doin''down thar? 20365 What air ye doin''on this side o''the mounting, ef ye air a- goin''ter the mill? |
20365 | What air ye layin''off fur me ter do? |
20365 | What am I tuk up fur? |
20365 | What d''ye want, granny? |
20365 | What did ye git? |
20365 | What fur? |
20365 | What fur? |
20365 | What''s a- brewin'', Amos? |
20365 | What''s curious about it? |
20365 | What''s that? |
20365 | What''s the reason ye air always tryin''ter toll off our old red muley from our house? |
20365 | What''s this hyar thing at the e- end o''the rope? |
20365 | When? |
20365 | Who got him a rope ter pull up by? |
20365 | Who hev done turned State''s evidence? |
20365 | Why d''ye come a- bustin''in hyar that thar way, Sol? |
20365 | Why did ye stand a- gapin''at the Conscripts''Hollow, ef ye did n''t know thar was suthin special thar? |
20365 | Why, what ails the boy? |
20365 | Whyn''t you- uns go? |
20365 | Ye ai n''t a- thinkin'',cried the woman tremulously,"ez the night air one app''inted fur evil?" |
20365 | Ye air the biggest man in Tennessee, ai n''t ye? |
20365 | You''re Barney Pratt, are you? 20365 _ That_ ai n''t the fellow, is it, Jim?" |
20365 | ''Twarn''t a- beckonin''? |
20365 | An''whar_ is_ Melissy?" |
20365 | An''when will I see G''liath Mounting agin, an''be whar Melissy air?" |
20365 | And Jube-- had he not known how Jube could lie? |
20365 | And what were these words he was beginning to faintly remember? |
20365 | Asleep? |
20365 | Barney''s tired brain began to fumble at this problem,--how did it happen? |
20365 | But had John Grow forgotten all the good words he had heard to- day from the circuit- rider? |
20365 | But how was it to concern Barney? |
20365 | But what was that upon it? |
20365 | But when it gained more strength, might it not drive Nick, helpless with his broken arm, from that high ledge? |
20365 | Could Barney have slipped quietly away, leaving him to his fate? |
20365 | Could explanations-- words, mere words-- clear him in the teeth of this fact? |
20365 | Could he look to any human being for deliverance? |
20365 | Could he support it? |
20365 | Could it be that bitter revenge he had promised himself? |
20365 | Did Nick see the plunder in the Conscripts''Hollow, an''git skeered, an''then sot out ter lyin''ter git shet o''the blame?" |
20365 | Did he dream it, or was it true, that when Nick came back he seemed at first strangely agitated? |
20365 | Did ye go thar fur the tur- r- key?" |
20365 | Divide that thar traveler''s money-- hey?" |
20365 | Had not the circuit- rider said in his last sermon that not even a sparrow falls to the ground unmarked of God? |
20365 | Had they melted into thin air during his long ride from the church? |
20365 | He had begun to lie,--where would it end? |
20365 | He shrank as the old man spoke,--"And is this the boy who was slipped through the window to steal from Blenkins?" |
20365 | He would keep up as long and as bravely as he could, and if the worst should come,--was he indeed so solitary? |
20365 | He would not speak the word,--he had determined on that,--for might they not think that_ he_ was the boy who had robbed the store? |
20365 | His next respite was thus entertained:--"What makes him work so of a night?" |
20365 | How could Jube have repeated it if he had not seen it? |
20365 | How could he avoid it? |
20365 | Now that this misfortune had befallen them, who could say what was before them unless Ike would remain and take his stepfather''s place at the forge? |
20365 | On this, the most benign day that ever dawns upon the world, was he led into these endless wastes of forest to be terrified by the"harnts"? |
20365 | Only when the storekeeper eagerly insisted,"What hev Jonas seen? |
20365 | State''s evidence,--what was that? |
20365 | The step paused at a safe distance, and the shrill pipe of a little boy demanded,"Whar is ye, Ethan Tynes?" |
20365 | Then at last it came out, quick and sharp, and in a convulsive gasp,--"Who air all that gang o''folks a- comin''yander down the road?" |
20365 | Then came a thought that filled him with dismay,--how long was this to last?--who would rescue him? |
20365 | Then he sullenly demanded,--"What''s yer name?" |
20365 | There was the thicket; but whose were the voices that had rung out faintly from beneath it? |
20365 | This was the way the distant ranges looked from the crags of his own home; he knew that they were the mountains, but which was Goliath? |
20365 | Was he to have his wish, and see his brother never again? |
20365 | Was he, indeed, so useless? |
20365 | Was it a shadow? |
20365 | Was it possible that George had forgotten to tell of his danger? |
20365 | Was it possible that he could have exchanged coats by mistake with Nick the last afternoon that they were on the crag together? |
20365 | Was there nothing beneath his feet but the vague depths of air to the base of the mountain? |
20365 | Whar''s the other burglars? |
20365 | Whar''s yer grist?" |
20365 | What air ter hender?" |

20365 | What was to be his fate? |
20365 | What would they say at home and at Birk''s Mill? |
20365 | Where have you been hid out, all this time?" |
20365 | Where is it?" |
20365 | Where was he? |
20365 | Who air ye ennyhow?" |
20365 | Who done yer this hyar trick?" |
20365 | Why could he not let himself down to the ledge by those long, strong vines that hung over the edge of the cliff? |
20365 | Why did he not refuse it? |
20365 | Why did not Pete come? |
20365 | Why should he not take the revenge he had promised himself? |
20365 | Will they keep me hyar all the same? |
20365 | Will ye gin Tom that message? |
20365 | Would he be put among the guilty creatures? |
20365 | Would he not fear that the truth might somehow involve him with the horse- thief? |
20365 | Would they believe his story? |

28328 | Now, the inquiry is, how has slavery risen and thus spread over our whole earth? |
28328 | Polk_, side by side, while he was consuming half his time in abuse of the Federal party? |
28328 | Rather, can he say he has any other kind? |

20941 | And if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters? |
20941 | And the reason? |
20941 | And those who steal or robb men, and those who buy or purchase them, are they not all alike? |
20941 | And what of the pietism of the Halle emissaries in Pennsylvania? |
20941 | And what will then become of the increased number of Germans dwelling in your midst? |
20941 | And who would instruct them, in case they should desire to study theology? |
20941 | And why? |
20941 | Another thing, dearest brethren, how shall we in the future supply our congregations with pastors? |
20941 | Are not both, Reason and Revelation, from heaven, always in agreement and the one supporting the other?" |
20941 | Are the families of ministers a nobler race than other people, so that extraordinary provisions must be made for them in preference to others? |
20941 | Are they sensible that they can not rationally defend their doctrines if they were scrutinized? |
20941 | At the baptism of children it was our intention to ask the sponsors, or godparents: Do you renounce in the name of this child, etc.? |
20941 | But if he erred, why do such as believe this call themselves Lutherans? |
20941 | But if this is done well, what shall we say is done evill? |
20941 | But what Christian can imagine that no error should be exposed, lest the persons who are guilty might be offended?" |
20941 | By means of human laws and traditions popery was established.--Why are preparations made now again to introduce that horrid beast? |
20941 | Can the beggar enrich the poor? |
20941 | Can the blind lead the blind? |
20941 | Can the sects give to Christendom what they themselves are in need of? |
20941 | Can they form a better one? |
20941 | Can we do this with a good conscience?" |
20941 | David Henkel remarked:"Is the General Synod a plant which has been planted by the heavenly Father? |
20941 | Do they not feel for their flocks? |
20941 | Do they refuse because they consider the persons who interrogate them too far beneath their notice? |
20941 | Do ye believe that the true body and blood of Christ are present, administered, and received under the external signs of bread and wine? |
20941 | Do ye believe that the unbelieving communicants also eat and drink the body and blood of Christ? |
20941 | Do ye intend to relinquish the General Synod, if in case ye can not prove the same to be founded in the Holy Scriptures?" |
20941 | Do you desire some day to celebrate the eternal Sabbath with the saints and the perfected just before the throne of God? |
20941 | Do you desire to escape hell? |
20941 | Do you love civic rest? |
20941 | Do you love your children? |
20941 | Do you love your neighbors? |
20941 | Do you love your parents? |
20941 | Do you love your preachers, your Savior, and your souls? |
20941 | Does not this( if it be the case) indicate that they are possessed with the pride of the devil? |
20941 | For what do the unlearned know of the Augsburg Confession, or the Form of Concord, or the Synod of Dort?" |
20941 | From Germany? |
20941 | Had Christ established a general treasury, out of which He had hired His apostles by the month or year? |
20941 | Had he refused to appear, especially before the Diet at Worms, what would have been the result? |
20941 | Have I not heretofore offered them a reciprocal trial, even as it respects personal conduct? |
20941 | Have we any nobility in America whom the people must bear upon their hands? |
20941 | He was the only Lutheran minister who ever received, and perhaps desired[?] |
20941 | How could I otherwise acquit them of such a charge, unless I would suppose that they in reality do not consider me as a false teacher? |
20941 | How did the majority act against the Savior? |
20941 | How does a man become partaker of another''s guilt but by being in connection with him, and not reproving it? |
20941 | How is such a dangerous man to be treated by Christian pastors? |
20941 | How should it be possible? |
20941 | How was it in the days of Luther? |
20941 | How was it in the time of Christ? |
20941 | If Luther and the Lutheran Confessions erred,"why do such as believe this call themselves Lutherans? |
20941 | If there are errors in this confession, why should any man who has discovered them yet pretend to preach under its covert? |
20941 | If they answer in the negative, why, then, have they not positively specified in the constitution that such should remain the standard of the Church? |
20941 | In an appeal to the Lutheran congregations they say:"Where will you at last find pastors and teachers if you do not send your children to college? |
20941 | Indeed, how could a genuine unity- union movement originate with the sects? |
20941 | Is he to be at liberty without reproof? |
20941 | Is he to be opposed behind his back, and defeated by arguments, or rather invectives, to which he has no opportunity of replying? |
20941 | Is it not degrading for Christians to depart so far from the paths of Christ and His apostles? |
20941 | Is it not enough that we have His promise? |
20941 | Is it rational to condemn either party without a trial? |
20941 | Is there anything of this kind to be found in the Church? |
20941 | It is the same as if it had said: the Church of Christ is but one united body, consisting of innumerable members; but what unites them? |
20941 | Know ye not that ye shall judge angels? |
20941 | Now consider well this thing, if it is good or bad? |
20941 | Now what is this better done as Turcks doe? |
20941 | Now, as Christ debated with wicked men, yea, with the devil himself, with what face can any man say, It is wrong to dispute on doctrinal topics?" |
20941 | Now, what is the duty of the people under their care? |
20941 | One of the chief questions to engage the attention of the first convention of Synod in 1748 was,"What is the condition of the schools?" |
20941 | Or are they ashamed to let their sentiments be known? |
20941 | Or have these Negers not as much right to fight for their freedom, as you have to keep them slaves? |
20941 | Or upon mature deliberation, have ye concluded publicly to revoke the same as erroneous? |
20941 | Or, indeed, have they the truth on their side, and yet fear to let it be known that they believe it, lest they should become unpopular? |
20941 | Or, is it proper for Lutherans to commune with such?" |
20941 | Others asked with tears,''Can I still be saved?''" |
20941 | Ought Jesus Christ to be worshiped as true God and man in one person? |
20941 | Ought they not to urge them to come to a reciprocal trial? |
20941 | Possibly a secret Arian, Socinian, or Deist? |
20941 | Some cried out,''My God, what shall I do that I may be saved?'' |
20941 | St. Paul, in writing to the Corinthians, said:''Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? |
20941 | Still, where could a second man have been found at that time who would have proven equal to the task in the same measure as Henry Melchior Muhlenberg? |
20941 | Suppose false teachers were to make a spurious translation of the Scriptures, how could such an illiterate body of ministers detect the forgery? |
20941 | That the Bible is the proper rule of doctrine must be confessed; yet the question is, Does the Augustan Confession contradict it? |
20941 | The appeal concludes:"Do you love your country? |
20941 | The first was:''Whether he intended to separate from the North Carolina Synod?'' |
20941 | The great council of Jerusalem and thousands of their adherents, or Jesus of Nazareth, and the few of His disciples who were despised by the world? |
20941 | The second:''Whether he was willing to be governed by a majority of preachers and delegates in the matters disputed?'' |
20941 | These are the reasons why we are against the traffick of men Body, as followeth: Is there any that would be done or handled at this manner? |
20941 | Think you that your churches and schools can exist without them? |
20941 | This did not betoken indifference[?] |
20941 | Thus empowered, could they not also borrow money upon the credit of their whole community for the establishment of any institution? |
20941 | Thus, as the years rolled on, the question became increasingly pressing:"Where shall we find pastors for our children?" |
20941 | Was the mission of the primitive apostles conducted in this manner? |
20941 | What is better calculated to induce hirelings to enter into the holy orders than their sure wages, by a general fund?" |
20941 | What is that except to declare Baptism unnecessary? |
20941 | What shall I say? |
20941 | What was he against millions of the Papist Church? |
20941 | What would be the result throughout Pennsylvania and Northern Maryland in forty or fifty years? |
20941 | When a doctrine is in dispute between two parties, how shall the public decide when they never heard the opposite arguments? |
20941 | Who supports the people''s widows and orphans? |
20941 | Who was right? |
20941 | Who, therefore, does not see that their teaching is most absurd and questionable? |
20941 | Why are so many petitions sent to legislative bodies for incorporation? |
20941 | Why are there so many attempts made to identify the Church with the State? |
20941 | Why can not the Church of Christ be one flock under one Shepherd? |
20941 | Why did they not accede to it? |
20941 | Why do they flee? |
20941 | Why does not every one lead a pious life? |
20941 | Why does the constitution not once name them?" |
20941 | Why have they given an opportunity to introduce a new confession? |
20941 | Why is it adopted by this body? |
20941 | Why these distances, controversies, disputes, mutual condemnations, why these splittings of formulas? |
20941 | Will any of the votaries of the General Synod presume to say that this confession is erroneous, heretical, and wicked? |
20941 | Will ye also maintain that the Christian Church may consist of twenty different opinions? |
20941 | Would it not be better if every congregation had a fund of its own to support their needy at home? |
20941 | Would it offend real Christians? |
20941 | ], because they belong to our organization and bear the name Lutheran? |
20941 | and if it is done according to Christianity? |
20941 | and that also the unbelieving communicants do eat and drink His body and blood? |
20941 | and that they do not cherish the most aspiring views? |
20941 | doe consider well this things, you who doe it; if you would be done at this manner? |
20941 | he says:"Why are we not all united in love and union? |
20941 | how much more things that pertain to this life?'' |
20941 | is that the way to bring up your children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord? |
20941 | poor sinful mortals, do they exalt themselves above their fellowmen? |
20941 | to be sold or made a slave for all the time of his life? |
33970 | A lion? |
33970 | An''_ what_ did you do with it, Ethelindy? |
33970 | And did the man die? |
33970 | And how do you account for that phase? |
33970 | And so he went plumb through the cave? |
33970 | And they came out all safe in Greenbrier? |
33970 | And which do you say? |
33970 | And which do_ you_ say? |
33970 | And you think this untrained girl could take her place? |
33970 | Bob,he addressed the toddler,"will you uns let daddy kerry ye like a baby?" |
33970 | But what makes ye look so durned peaked? |
33970 | But what will yer gran''dad say ter me? |
33970 | But_ why_ hain''t ye got more, Basil? 33970 Could you- uns_ sure_ be back hyar by day- break, Watt?" |
33970 | Daniel''s Lions? 33970 Did he collapse at last and verify the surgeon''s prophecy?" |
33970 | Did he pay you in gold? |
33970 | Did he see-- really----? |
33970 | Did you get my check? |
33970 | Do you know that you trouble yourself to talk very little, Captain Girard? |
33970 | Do you know this Royston McGurny? |
33970 | Does he state any reasons for making it public? |
33970 | Done what? |
33970 | Dr. Rigdon is not staying in the house, then? |
33970 | Girard? |
33970 | Got pretty good horse? |
33970 | Have we got to cross this? |
33970 | Have you any idea of where you are going, or how far? |
33970 | Heavenly? 33970 Hey? |
33970 | How could ye hev strengthened yer heart fur sech a deed onless the grace o''God prevailed mightily within ye? 33970 How did yer corn crap turn out?" |
33970 | How do you uns know that? |
33970 | How so? 33970 I dun''no''how fur smallpox kin travel-- an''it jes''mulls and mulls in ye afore it breaks out-- don''t it, S''briny?" |
33970 | I may consider myself dismissed from the presence? |
33970 | If I may ask, who is this lady who seems to give the law to the community? |
33970 | If that is true, why should he stay in this quiet place? |
33970 | In the show? |
33970 | In what school did you acquire your trenchant style? |
33970 | Is n''t the moon heavenly? |
33970 | Is this bona- fide? |
33970 | Is this what you had to tell me? |
33970 | Kerry the baby? 33970 Me?" |
33970 | Mighty long tramp fur Bobbie, thar,--whyn''t ye kerry him? |
33970 | Mr. Gordon, is it not? 33970 No? |
33970 | Not intentionally, Major, but----"And who are you to judge of my motives? 33970 Or in greenbacks? |
33970 | Remember, Mr. Whitmel, at that fight we had in the hills not far from the Ocoee, how you rebuked two artillerymen for swearing? 33970 See the fire? |
33970 | Sergeant,he hailed the guidon,"where is Captain Dovinger?" |
33970 | Shot somebody? |
33970 | So they came into Tanglefoot down the road, and went out of the Cove by this tunnel? |
33970 | That thar bar? |
33970 | That tree? 33970 The boy wo n''t die, then?" |
33970 | The murder, ye mean? 33970 Then why n''t ye leave it ter men?" |
33970 | Think? 33970 Used to see that sort of thing in the army? |
33970 | Ventriloquist? |
33970 | Waal, war Clem Tweed funnin''whenst he done sech ez that, in levyin''an execution? |
33970 | Warn''t it prime? |
33970 | Whar did he die at? |
33970 | Whar is this fool goin''? |
33970 | What ailed you- uns ter name_ me_ as the corpus,''Gene Barker? |
33970 | What did he level, Medory-- a gun? |
33970 | What did you do it fur? |
33970 | What fur should I tell it--''t ai n''t mine? |
33970 | What has become of the troopers? |
33970 | What is the reward offered to hale him forth and force him to enjoy that privilege-- five hundred dollars? |
33970 | What makes him limp? |
33970 | What sorter fool talk is that? |
33970 | What''s all this? |
33970 | What''s her name-- Meggy? |
33970 | What''s yer cargo? |
33970 | What''s yer name? |
33970 | What-- what-- is-- that Thing-- over there on the bank of the bogue? |
33970 | Where are the other officers of the squadron-- the junior captain, the lieutenants? |
33970 | Where''s this girl-- you? |
33970 | Who are Captain Girard''s people, Papa? |
33970 | Who sits so late at the forge? |
33970 | Who was the man? |
33970 | Whut''s in the box? |
33970 | Whut-- w- whut ails him ter take arter Tanglefoot? 33970 Why n''t ye keep the top on yer coffee- can? |
33970 | Why not? 33970 Why, do n''t you know that''s against the law?" |
33970 | Why, what does all this mean? |
33970 | Whyn''t they bury him in Eskaqua, whar he died? |
33970 | Whyn''t ye wait for me, Sher''ff? 33970 Will ye deny ez ye hev he d a sign from the heavens, Jubal Kennedy?" |
33970 | Will you tell it, Mr. Gordon, or shall I? |
33970 | Wo n''t them candidates fur office be mighty mad if they find out what it war sure enough? |
33970 | Would you be afraid of the lion, child? |
33970 | Ye ai n''t no snake, now-- nary toad-- nary green rabbit-- no sort''n jim- jam? |
33970 | Ye air in no danger of fire, then? |
33970 | Ye know that gal named Loralindy Byars? |
33970 | You contemplate giving it to the public,he said to Gordon;"why not try its effect on a disinterested listener first, and judge from that?" |
33970 | You did n''t see no guide whenst they slipped past you- uns''house, did ye? |
33970 | You learned that argument from Geraldine-- he is nothing but an echo of Geraldine, Mr. Gordon-- now, is n''t he, Mamma? |
33970 | You showed him the way to this pass yourself? 33970 An''what d''ye s''pose I seen? 33970 And at what time had this dread fate befallen his friend? 33970 And what do you think about, pray? |
33970 | And who would believe that? |
33970 | Basil, the wife, the children,--where were they? |
33970 | But he was at once doubtful and relieved when the haggard wretch at the door, mustering his courage, replied:"Know Royston McGurny? |
33970 | But how? |
33970 | But was it not told already in those tracks in the dusty road? |
33970 | But, meantime, how does the fellow contrive to live?" |
33970 | Daniel''s Lions?" |
33970 | Do n''t ye know the coffee will lose heart, settin''open?" |
33970 | George?" |
33970 | Gordon?" |
33970 | Had he found justice so alert to redress his wrongs, even in a little matter, that he must needs risk his neck upon it? |
33970 | Had he overheard their unguarded, significant words? |
33970 | Had he, indeed, no foundation for his suspicion? |
33970 | Hev you- uns got any aigs?" |
33970 | Honest?" |
33970 | How had she the heart to deprive them of his willing aid? |
33970 | How_ could_ you- uns let sech ez that happen?" |
33970 | If your command is annihilated, why do you keep up this commotion?" |
33970 | Is the man deaf?" |
33970 | It''s a heavenly body, ai n''t it?" |
33970 | Keene?" |
33970 | Kinnicutt''s brow contracted angrily, and Crann broke into open wrath:"An''I ai n''t carin'', ye fool-- what d''ye interrupt fur like that?" |
33970 | More than once his superior muscle sufficed to throw off both the officers for a moment, but to what avail? |
33970 | Mrs. Keene acceded as the two young men shook hands; then, evidently perturbed by her lack of ceremony, she exclaimed pettishly,"Where is Geraldine? |
33970 | Never had a golden opportunity like this been lost-- by what uncovenanted chance had Tolhurst escaped? |
33970 | Oh, why had he not gone with the rest of the camp? |
33970 | Or mebbe in Cornfed money?" |
33970 | Or, Seymour again doubted, had he merely constructed a figment of a scheme from his own imaginings and these attenuations of suggestion? |
33970 | Self- defense-- was it? |
33970 | She watched him flinch, and asked wonderingly,"Is game skeerce?" |
33970 | Tell me, you men, is this a testamentary paper, and you think it against the law to destroy it?" |
33970 | Then Dr. Trent broke forth:"Are you a fool, boy? |
33970 | Then as the schemer remained silent he demanded, frowning darkly,"What''s Loralindy Byars got ter do with it?" |
33970 | Then, aloud,"Why do n''t you uns kerry the baby, Basil Bedell, an''give yer wife a rest?" |
33970 | Therefore, with a sedulous effort, Hoxer maintained his composure when the Major thundered again,"You tax me with making a false impression?" |
33970 | Told a lie by accident, did I? |
33970 | WHO CROSSES STORM MOUNTAIN? |
33970 | War it the sheriff himself ez levied?" |
33970 | Warn''t that you- uns runnin''arter the wagon a piece back yonder jes a while ago?" |
33970 | Was not the whole neighborhood swarming with canine dependents? |
33970 | Was this the only cur- dog in the Bend? |
33970 | Whar else?" |
33970 | What had befallen her voice? |
33970 | What strange influence had betided the landscape? |
33970 | What was their game? |
33970 | What ye want?" |
33970 | Where''s the man?" |
33970 | Who be dead?" |
33970 | Who could divine, so silent were the windless mountains, so deep a- dream the darksome woods, so spell- bound the mute and mystic moonlight? |
33970 | Who was she, indeed, that she should seek to command the march of events and deploy sequences? |
33970 | Why should the laggard inspiration come so late if it had come at all? |
33970 | Whyn''t ye work more and quit wastin''yer time on that old fool fiddle?" |
33970 | Will_ you_ be waiting fur me here in Tanglefoot Cove-- if I promise not to hang you fur your misdeeds right off now?" |
33970 | Would she dig up that box he treasured from whar he told her he he d buried it, arter he escaped from the attack o''the miners? |
33970 | how did he get so footsore?" |
33970 | ye jes''now f''und that out, dad?" |
35619 | What kin you- uns view on the mounting? |
35619 | ''''Crost the line in the old North State?'' |
35619 | ''Ai n''t you- uns''most tired out, Euraliny?'' |
35619 | ''Air it the Good Book?'' |
35619 | ''Air old Mis''Cayce''s gyarden- truck suff''rin''fur rain?'' |

35619 | ''Air you- uns thinkin ez I''ll''low ez I would hev married a man four months ago ez never axed me ter marry, nohow?'' |
35619 | ''An''I wo n''t be''lected, hey?'' |

35619 | ''An''what sets Pa''son Kelsey agin me?'' |
35619 | ''An''why air it me more''n enny other man at the Settle_mint_?'' |
35619 | ''An''why me, more''n the t''others?'' |
35619 | ''An''ye sit thar ez peaceful ez skim- milk, an''''low ez ye hev let my two hundred dollars slip away?'' |
35619 | ''Be them men a- wraistlin''?'' |
35619 | ''Be you- uns a- goin''ter hold fo''th,''demanded the old woman,''or Brother Jake Tobin?'' |
35619 | ''Be you- uns satisfied?'' |
35619 | ''Brother Reuben Bates, will ye lead us in prayer?'' |
35619 | ''But who wants ter go ter heftin''rocks?'' |
35619 | ''Ca n''t ye''light an''sot a while''an talk, Rick?'' |
35619 | ''D''rindy,''he said suddenly,''ye set a heap o''store on Rick Tyler?'' |
35619 | ''D''ye reckon that he wanted ter go ter jail in Shaftesville?'' |
35619 | ''D- d- did what?'' |
35619 | ''Damn ye, what is it?'' |
35619 | ''Did he hurt yer feelin''s?'' |
35619 | ''Did they git enny shower up in the mounting, Amos?'' |
35619 | ''Did they live in thar lifetime up hyar in the Big Smoky, or in the valley kentry?'' |
35619 | ''Did ye ketch him?'' |
35619 | ''Enny news''round the mill, Amos?'' |
35619 | ''Grind some fur we- uns ter- morrer?'' |
35619 | ''He hain''t been so delivered over by the Lord ez ter kem agin, arter informin''the raiders, inter the Big Smoky?'' |
35619 | ''He hain''t nosed you- uns out yit, hev he, Rick?'' |
35619 | ''Hev they tuk him ter jail-- the pa''son-- Pa''son Kelsey?'' |
35619 | ''Hev ye jes''fund that out?'' |
35619 | ''Hev you- uns hearn the news?'' |
35619 | ''How air the moral vineyard a- thrivin''?'' |
35619 | ''How''d Rick Tyler say he got away from the sher''ff, ennyhow?'' |
35619 | ''How''d ye git away, Rick?'' |
35619 | ''How''s granny?'' |

35619 | ''In the name o''Gawd, D''rindy, what air you- uns a- wantin''me ter do?'' |
35619 | ''In the name o''reason,''exclaimed the young fellow petulantly,''why ca n''t he pray somewhar else? |
35619 | ''Is it a weddin'', D''rindy?'' |
35619 | ''Jacob,''she softly drawled,''whyn''t ye go ter bed?'' |
35619 | ''Kin ye read yer book, pa''son, an''ride yer beastis all ter wunst?'' |
35619 | ''Lord A''mighty, air the corn mine, or no?'' |
35619 | ''Lord, pa''son, how''d you- uns know that?'' |
35619 | ''One sher''ff''s same ter you- uns ez another, ai n''t he, Rick?'' |
35619 | ''See old Groundhog?'' |
35619 | ''Take the gaynder down?'' |
35619 | ''Talkin''''bout Rick Tyler, did you- uns go sarchin''that night-- the dep''ty''s party-- ter the still they say old man Cayce runs?'' |
35619 | ''The boys air convicted, then? |
35619 | ''The dogs?'' |

35619 | ''Waal, then, how''d the sher''ff take him ter jail?'' |
35619 | ''Waal, then,''said Amos, crestfallen,''who done it?'' |
35619 | ''War he gone ter the still?'' |
35619 | ''War he tuk?'' |
35619 | ''Wh- wh- at d''ye mean?'' |
35619 | ''Wh- wh- whar be you- uns a- goin''?'' |
35619 | ''Whar be D''rindy?'' |
35619 | ''Whar did ye see him?'' |
35619 | ''Whar''s he now?'' |
35619 | ''Whar?'' |
35619 | ''Whar?'' |
35619 | ''What ailed D''rindy ter say that word?'' |
35619 | ''What ails ye ter hustle''long so, D''rindy?'' |
35619 | ''What ails ye, ter git tuk so suddint in yer temper, Amos?'' |
35619 | ''What air ye a- aimin''ter do with it? |
35619 | ''What be you- uns a- goin''ter do?'' |
35619 | ''What d''ye bring the savage beastis home fur, Hiram, out''n the woods whar they b''long?'' |
35619 | ''What d''ye want with him?'' |
35619 | ''What did I tell you- uns? |
35619 | ''What did ye ever do ter the Cayces,''Cajah, or what did Bluff Peake ever do fur''em?'' |
35619 | ''What did ye git?'' |
35619 | ''What do I want with him? |
35619 | ''What fur?'' |
35619 | ''What fur?'' |
35619 | ''What promise?'' |
35619 | ''What war I a- tellin''you- uns? |
35619 | ''What war I a- tellin''you- uns? |
35619 | ''What war the word ez ye war a- layin''off to say ter me, gran''dad?'' |
35619 | ''What war ye a- doin''of with yer rifle?'' |
35619 | ''What work be you- uns a- doin''of?'' |
35619 | ''What''s goin''on''round the mounting?'' |
35619 | ''Which way did he go?'' |
35619 | ''Who be ye a- goin''ter cut?'' |
35619 | ''Who does this?'' |
35619 | ''Who said ye warn''t goin''ter be''lected?'' |
35619 | ''Who''s that?'' |
35619 | ''Who?'' |
35619 | ''Why air Mirandy Jane called ter l''arn how ter cook vittles?'' |
35619 | ''Why did he''low ez that warn''t comin''ter pass?'' |
35619 | ''Whyn''t he git bail?'' |
35619 | ''Whyn''t pa''son gin the bail, then?'' |
35619 | ''Whyn''t ye tell me that man warn''t thar?'' |
35619 | ''Whyn''t you- uns git him ter bed?'' |
35619 | ''Whyn''t you- uns go on his bond?'' |
35619 | ''Will ye come?'' |
35619 | ''Wo n''t the Court let the pa''son go free now, sence they know ye done no crime?'' |
35619 | ''Would ye be afeared, D''rindy, ter marry a man ez would hev ter keep his life, and yourn, mebbe, with this pistol? |
35619 | ''Would ye be afeared?'' |
35619 | ''Ye ai n''t goin''ter be''lected, air ye,''Cajah Green?'' |
35619 | ''Ye ai n''t kem up the Big Smoky a- huntin''fur Rick Tyler?'' |
35619 | ''Ye hain''t seen nor hearn of him, I s''pose, hev ye?'' |
35619 | ''Ye war a- prayin''fur''em on the bald?'' |
35619 | ''Ye wo n''t gin the reason?'' |
35619 | Air that a true word?'' |
35619 | Air''Cajah Green a- goin''ter be''lected?'' |
35619 | Airish out o''doors, ai n''t it? |
35619 | An''ye fund it out?'' |
35619 | And although the parson preached no more, who shall say his sermons were ended? |
35619 | And what was that sound on the air? |
35619 | And where did he say he went with the apples? |
35619 | Ca n''t ye set an''drink yer liquor sociable,''thout clinchin''that- a- way? |
35619 | Could he look at them and doubt that one day he should see God? |
35619 | Had he not confessed himself an evil- doer, forsaken of God and bereft of grace? |
35619 | He was on his knees: was he praying? |
35619 | How kem you- uns ter git the nightmare''bout''n the raiders? |
35619 | I s''pose ye hain''t seen him hyar- abouts?'' |
35619 | In the plenitude of their ignorant faith, were they listening for the invoked voice of God? |
35619 | Law, Rick, ef the murderer would say the word ter set ye free, ca n''t ye do ez much fur the pa''son, ez hev seen so much trouble a''ready?'' |
35619 | Mirandy Jane''s mythical raider, and mam''s dream, and D''rindy''s folly-- were these to baffle that stout- hearted old soldier? |
35619 | She stopped him with some difficulty, and then,''Convicted of sin?'' |
35619 | Should she speak the thought nearest to her heart? |
35619 | Should she suggest a rescue? |
35619 | Should she urge them to go? |
35619 | Since there was nothing to gain, why humble himself in vain? |
35619 | Ter kill sech chillen ez happen ter make game o''ye? |
35619 | That quick glance was incongruous with his dullard aspect; it held a spark of fire, inspiration, frenzy-- who can say? |
35619 | Then, with a moral hardihood that matched his physical prowess, he asked,''An''what ef I be?'' |
35619 | Then,''What ails ye, Rick? |
35619 | Then:''Hain''t you- uns hearn how the Cayces turned out agin ye at the''lection? |
35619 | This anxious, browbeaten, humiliated creature-- was this Micajah Green? |
35619 | Those fine immaterial issues of faith and unfaith-- where were they? |
35619 | Waal, now, who made that law? |
35619 | Was it the rising of the wind? |
35619 | Was this lukewarm inattention the guerdon of the sacrifice of the cross? |
35619 | Were not the words of his prophecy still on the air? |
35619 | Were these the sincerities of faith? |
35619 | Whar did ye go, ennyhow, when ye war on the mounting?'' |
35619 | What ails the gal?'' |
35619 | What did Pete do ter ye, Amos?'' |
35619 | What did the doctor say ye gin her? |
35619 | What sort o''weather is this?'' |
35619 | When war she buried?--las''week or year afore las''? |
35619 | Where had he been? |
35619 | Which fork o''the road is it ye take fur the still-- I furgit-- the lef''or the right?'' |
35619 | Which way did he go?'' |
35619 | Who air under conviction hyar?'' |
35619 | Who had heard of them, and when did they come, and where did they go? |
35619 | Who is the happy man, D''rindy?'' |
35619 | Who sold Rick Tyler that powder, Mister Hoodendin?'' |
35619 | Why ai n''t I goin''ter be''lected?'' |
35619 | Why did he deny? |
35619 | Why should he linger, and wring his heart, and garner bitterness to feed upon in his lonely days? |
35619 | Whyn''t ye speak the truth ter her, pa''son? |
35619 | Would ye be afeared?'' |
35619 | Would ye-- would ye hev married me then?'' |
35619 | Ye would n''t let him do that ef ye could holp it, would ye, Rick?'' |
35619 | he asked familiarly,''and D''rindy?'' |
35619 | he would say; or,''Do n''t ye feel wore in yer backbone, hevin''ter wait so long?'' |
35619 | or,''Hedn''t ye better lay down on the blanket in the waggin an''rest yer bones, bein''ez we- uns started''fore daybreak?'' |
35619 | said the sheriff, smiling fixedly,''or had ye ruther be fetched?'' |
13202 | Ai n''t your name Sam? |
13202 | Are they spies? |
13202 | Can anybody tell me whar them Yanks are? 13202 Did you ever look?" |
13202 | Did you have horns, Uncle Zack? |
13202 | Hello, Lee, what does Cleburne say the Yankees are doing at Jonesboro? |
13202 | Hello,says Hood,"Whar in the Dickens and Tom Walker are them Yanks, hey? |
13202 | How do you know then? |
13202 | How do you sell it? |
13202 | How much is your fish worth? |
13202 | Lee, ask Cleburne if he feels feinty? 13202 Now, where are you, Johnny Reb? |
13202 | WHAT IS THIS REBEL DOING HERE? |
13202 | Well, Uncle Zack, what sort of a looking lamb were you? |
13202 | Well, after you got to heaven, what did you do then? |
13202 | Well, how often did they shear the lambs, Uncle Zack? |
13202 | Well, sir, that''s too thin; why did you not get a pass? |
13202 | Well, what color were the lambs, Uncle Zack? |
13202 | Were there no old rams or ewes among them? |
13202 | What command do you belong to, sir? |
13202 | What is it, boss? |
13202 | What is that you say? |
13202 | What is the matter? 13202 What regiment are you from?" |
13202 | What regiment do you belong to? |
13202 | What regiment is your detail from? |
13202 | What''s the matter now? |
13202 | What? |
13202 | You are whipped, are n''t you? |
13202 | 200, are you?" |
13202 | 200?" |
13202 | AM PROMOTED"Why, hello, corporal, where did you get those two yellow stripes from on your arm?" |
13202 | After the fighting was over, where, O where, was all the fine rigging heretofore on our officers? |
13202 | Ah, ha, have you stacked your arms for a surrender?" |
13202 | Am I mistaken? |
13202 | And then to hear some fellow ask,"Why ai n''t you with them, then, you cowardly puppy? |
13202 | And what wonder that General Bragg''s name became a terror to deserters and evil doers? |
13202 | Any news or letters that you wish carried home? |
13202 | Approaching Sergeant A. S. Horsley, he said,"Vy ish you got nodings mit your knapsack? |
13202 | Are we going to be captured? |
13202 | Are we worthy to be called the sons of old Maury county? |
13202 | As soon as he saw me, he said,"Who have you there-- a prisoner, or a deserter?" |
13202 | Ask him how a fellow feels when he feints?" |
13202 | BATTLE OF RESACCA Well, you want to hear about shooting and banging, now, gentle reader, do n''t you? |
13202 | Did I see my comrades buried and see the violet and wild flowers bloom over their graves? |
13202 | Did I see our country laid waste and in ruins? |
13202 | Did I see soldiers marching, the earth trembling and jarring beneath their measured tread? |
13202 | Did I see the flag of my country, that I had followed so long, furled to be no more unfurled forever? |
13202 | Did I see the ruins of smouldering cities and deserted homes? |
13202 | Did I see those brave and noble countrymen of mine laid low in death and weltering in their blood? |
13202 | Did my eyes deceive me? |
13202 | Do you recollect in that year, for the first time in your life, of hearing Dixie and the Bonnie Blue Flag? |
13202 | Do you think we can take them? |
13202 | Does He who noteth the sparrow''s fall, and numbers the hairs of our heads, have any interest in one like ourselves? |
13202 | EATING MUSSELS Reader, did you ever eat a mussel? |
13202 | EIGHTEEN HUNDRED AND SIXTY- ONE Reader mine, did you live in that stormy period? |
13202 | Every man I met had a furlough; in fact, it seemed to have the very double- extract of romance about it--"fur too, eh?" |
13202 | Every one who passed would be hailed with,"Well, what news from the front?" |
13202 | Finally, he closed the book with a slam and started off, and said I,"Did you want to find out my name?" |
13202 | From what command? |
13202 | Hans, vat fer ish dot shooting mit mein left wing? |
13202 | Happening to catch sight of me, he asked,"What is this Rebel doing here?" |
13202 | He had no nerves, or rather, has a rock or tree any nerves? |
13202 | He rode on down the road toward me, and when he had approached,"Who goes there?" |
13202 | He took Alf''s knapsack and on opening it, what do you suppose was in it? |
13202 | Here is a sample of the colloquy that followed:"Mister, have some butter?" |
13202 | Here was the field, and here were the roastingears; but where was the raft or canoe? |
13202 | How many of those 120 original members are with the company today? |
13202 | How much more valuable are we than many sparrows? |
13202 | I asked several other fellows what in the dickens did all this mean? |
13202 | I asked the litter corps,"Who have you there?" |
13202 | I could not help thinking all the time,"Ai n''t that old woman dead yet?" |
13202 | I opened my eyes, and asked,"Who are you?" |
13202 | I ran to the road and asked them what was the matter? |
13202 | I said,"When? |
13202 | I thought that I recognized the voice in the darkness-- and said I,"Who are you?" |
13202 | I turned away and thought how long, how long will I have to witness these things? |
13202 | I walked on as if I was just relieved, and had passed their lines, when I turned back, and says I,"Captain, what guard is this?" |
13202 | I went back, and says I,"Who fired those two shots?" |
13202 | In looking back over these pages, I ask, Where now are many whose names have appeared in these sketches? |
13202 | In the year of our Lord eighteen hundred and sixty- one, do you remember those stirring times? |
13202 | Is it a bargain?" |
13202 | Is it true that I have seen all these things? |
13202 | Is that some high office? |
13202 | Is your army going to advance on us?" |
13202 | Ish dot der Repels, Hans? |
13202 | JOHN WHITTAKER THEN COMES THE FARCE PALMETTO JEFF DAVIS MAKES A SPEECH ARMISTICE ONLY IN NAME A SCOUT WHAT IS THIS REBEL DOING HERE? |
13202 | John says,"Madam, do you want that dog killed, sure enough?" |
13202 | Johnny answered,"What do you want?" |
13202 | Meynheer Dutchman comes out; and says,"Ish dot so? |
13202 | Not who was the best general, or colonel, or captain-- but"who ranked?" |
13202 | Now, reader, what do you suppose that negro was doing? |
13202 | Now, we tagged first, why do n''t you tag back? |
13202 | Now, what became of the original 3,200? |
13202 | Or have we fought in vain? |
13202 | Preacher, ai n''t that old woman dead yet?" |
13202 | Reader, I ask you who you think was to blame? |
13202 | Reader, were you ever held in reserve of an attacking army? |
13202 | Say, captain, say, if yet my task be done? |
13202 | Says I,"Are you speaking to me?" |
13202 | Says I,"Colonel Field, what''s the matter? |
13202 | Says I,"Galbreath, what are you making a fool of yourself that way for? |
13202 | Says I,"What is the long roll for?" |
13202 | Says I:"Madam, how do you sell your eggs?" |
13202 | Says he,"What''s this? |
13202 | Stewart, do you think you will be able to get through with your job of blowing up by day after tomorrow, or by Saturday at twelve o''clock? |
13202 | Take off that coat and those chicken guts; coo, sheep; baa, baa, black sheep; flicker, flicker; ai n''t you ashamed of yourself? |
13202 | That''s your plan, is it? |
13202 | The whole army is routed and running; had n''t you better be getting away from here? |
13202 | Then I said,"Wright, why do n''t you jump out of that wagon and run?" |
13202 | Then you take it up to the general; the guard stops you in a very formal way, and asks,"What do you want?" |
13202 | Then, said he,"What is your name?" |
13202 | They answered,"Matter enough; yonder are the Yankees, are you infantry fellows going to make a stand here?" |
13202 | To hear some of our boys ask,"What regiment is that? |
13202 | We are not supported; what is the matter? |
13202 | We halted but a moment, and said I,"Colonel, where are you wounded?" |
13202 | We will get millions of dollars by robbery alone, do n''t you see?" |
13202 | Well, Yank, why do n''t you come on and take us? |
13202 | Well, what news? |
13202 | Well, what was to be done? |
13202 | Well, what''s the matter now? |
13202 | Well, you have come here to fight us; why do n''t you come on? |
13202 | Were they true men? |
13202 | What are you going to do about it? |
13202 | What could I do? |
13202 | What could we do? |
13202 | What do you suppose he was doing? |
13202 | What does that mean? |
13202 | What does this yell mean? |
13202 | What is the matter? |
13202 | What next? |
13202 | What regiment is that?" |
13202 | What was I to do? |
13202 | What was it worth?" |
13202 | What''s the matter? |
13202 | What? |
13202 | When I could hold in no longer, I laughed out, and said,"Well, Walter, what luck last night?" |
13202 | Where are many of my old friends and comrades, whose names were so familiar at every roll call, and whose familiar"Here"is no more? |
13202 | Where are they tonight? |
13202 | Where were our generals? |
13202 | Who are they? |
13202 | Why do n''t you let us hear the cannon''s opening roar? |
13202 | Why do n''t you rattle a few old muskets over there at us? |
13202 | Why do n''t you unbottle your thunderbolts and dash us to pieces? |
13202 | Why? |
13202 | Will this pay you for your hog?" |
13202 | Y''S YOU GOT MY HOG? |
13202 | Yank says,"What you doing, Johnny?" |
13202 | Yank would halloo over and say,"Well, Johnny, have you got everything across?" |
13202 | You are going to starve us out, eh? |
13202 | You say,"Well, General, what is the matter with it?" |
13202 | You''ve got the dry grins, arn''t you? |
13202 | [ Author''s note: In the Southern army the question was, who ranked? |
13202 | are they being enacted today? |
13202 | did they happen? |
13202 | did you have wings?" |
13202 | flour bread? |
13202 | halt after today''s victory? |
13202 | is that so?" |
13202 | or are they the fancies of the imagination in forgetful reverie? |
13202 | that they are real incidents in my life''s history? |
13202 | vare ish Shineral Mackferson, eh? |
13202 | we''re coming, coming, look out, do n''t you see us coming? |
13202 | were they eating grass?" |
13202 | what is that? |
13202 | who goes there?" |
13202 | who goes there?" |
14863 | All the hundred dollars all by herself, Jane? |
14863 | All women do, Evelina, why not you-- live with James? |
14863 | And then you will be here by yourself, so you can watch over Cousin James, as much as your work will allow you, ca n''t you, Evelina? |
14863 | And you will be glad to have me-- come and live for a time in your home life, dear? |
14863 | And-- and all of his-- his guests are really dependent on him? |
14863 | Are we free women, and have we, or have we not, command of our own storerooms and our own servants and our own time and strength? |
14863 | Are you coming-- are you coming to live with us, Evelina? 14863 Are you going to let us make another dress for the kiddies, Sallie, dear?" |
14863 | Are you ready, Evelina? 14863 Big scheme this-- got him in a corner if the C.& G. comes along this side of Old Harpeth-- make him squeal-- hey?" |
14863 | But what shall we do if they do n''t want to have it? |
14863 | But what_ are_ you going to do, Evelina? |
14863 | But-- but would n''t it be a little crowded for him to have another-- another vine-- that is, exactly what would he do with me? 14863 Did it ever occur to you, Evelina, that your Cousin James is really a radiantly beautiful man? |
14863 | Did they consult you before deciding to refuse your suggestion? |
14863 | Do I have to answer? |
14863 | Do n''t you all''spose God made the sun some to heat up Kit''s stomach? |
14863 | Do n''t you know when youse left? |
14863 | Do n''t you think he looks scraggy in that long- tailed coat, shocks of taggy hair and a collar big enough to fit Old Harpeth? |
14863 | Do n''t you want to come with us? |
14863 | Do you know, Polk, there is one woman in the world who could-- could handle you? |
14863 | Do you suppose we will ever get all of the clothes done for the twins? |
14863 | Do you think that there-- there are any signs of-- of such a thing yet? |
14863 | Do you use the same methods with grown beasts that you do with cubs? |
14863 | Do you want me single- handed to get the bluff line chosen? |
14863 | Does-- does Cousin James have to support Sallie and the children, Uncle Peter? |
14863 | Done what? |
14863 | Evelina, are you real or a-- farce? |
14863 | Everything but what he carries around under that old gray hat of his-- not so bad a fortune, at that!--hey? |
14863 | Have we or have we not? |
14863 | Have you made up your mind fully to go in for public life, Nell? |
14863 | Have you said anything about this to Sallie? |
14863 | Hey? 14863 How many families has he with him now?" |
14863 | I have asked, when did the men of Glendale begin to dictate to the women as to whom they should offer their hospitality? |
14863 | I wonder if I ought to make up my mind to stay with him? 14863 I''d be mighty particular as to who handles me,"he answered impudently,"Want to try?" |
14863 | If I were to take my hat and go back to the gate and come in again properly and let you do it, would that make you feel any better? |
14863 | If women eat out loud before everybody why ca n''t they pray their thank- you out loud like any man? |
14863 | If you could define a real woman, Polk, in what terms would you express her? |
14863 | If you wanted me any time, would you tell me, Evelina? |
14863 | If you was on a train, what did you git offen it_ here_ for? |
14863 | If you were ever lonely and needed me, Evelina, you would tell me, would n''t you? |
14863 | Is n''t that old mossback a treat for the sight of gods and men? |
14863 | Is n''t there anything to feed the monsters this side of the river? |
14863 | It would be a good thing to get about a half dozen cakes, would n''t it? |
14863 | Jamie, is all you''ve got tied up in the venture? |
14863 | Lonely-- hey? |
14863 | Must we tell them about it or not? |
14863 | Must you, Eve? |
14863 | Not yet, but do n''t you feel sure that she will consent? |
14863 | Now, what shall we put in the portmanteau first? 14863 Now?" |
14863 | Of course, I should be desolate without mine, but what could I do with them, if I did n''t have all of you dear people to help me with them? |
14863 | Oh, Henrietta, how could you nearly kill your little sister like this? |
14863 | Oh, Polk, how could you have misunderstood me like this? |
14863 | Oh, has Cousin James really lost all of his fortune? |
14863 | Polk, do you see any logical, honest or dishonest way to get that Road to take the Glendale bluff line? |
14863 | That would be lovely, Aunt Augusta, and how are you? |
14863 | The men of this town will show the uprising hussies what we think of''em, and put''em back to the heels of men, where they belong-- belong-- hey? |
14863 | Then, why should you wonder and suffer and restrain and be humiliated at your love for Polk? |
14863 | Uncle Peter,I said, as I stepped out in front of him suddenly,"please, Uncle Peter, wo n''t you come in and talk to me?" |
14863 | Want any good, smelly soap? |
14863 | We''ve no time for questions, Evelina, now-- go back to your tatting-- hey? |
14863 | Well, Sallie Carruthers will get him, and then there''ll be a dozen more to run the measure over-- children-- hey? 14863 Well, they brought on this nice companionable hunt for them, did n''t they?" |
14863 | Well, what_ are_ you going to do, Evelina? |
14863 | What did Dodson have to say-- is he coming across? |
14863 | What did he say? |
14863 | What do you mean? |
14863 | What do you suppose is the why of such useless things as slugs? |
14863 | What for did you all unpack outen the surrey, if you sawed the train go by? |
14863 | What is it? |
14863 | What makes it of advantage for a railroad to run through any given point in a rural community like this, Cousin James? |
14863 | What''s a lovely lady doing sitting all by herself in the gloaming? |
14863 | What''s the matter? |
14863 | Where are you and her going at,--fishing? |
14863 | Who''s Dodson? |
14863 | Why did n''t you go over and live in James''s hennery-- live with James-- hey? |
14863 | Why not tell him about it and ask him if he loves you? |
14863 | Why, Evelina Shelby, you darling thing, when did you come? |
14863 | Why, Henrietta, my own, can it be you who utter such cruel sentiments in my absence? |
14863 | Why, Henrietta, what is the matter? |
14863 | Why, Uncle Jasper, how did you know I was here? |
14863 | Will you come again, Uncle Peter? |
14863 | Will you go over and sit in that chair while I tell you something calmly, quietly, and seriously? 14863 Will you try?" |
14863 | Wire especially impassioned? |
14863 | Would any other arms do for the rocking? |
14863 | Yes, Henrietta, but you--"Ai n''t she whole all over and clean? |
14863 | You mean, do n''t you, Jamie, that you want to get Glendale past this place that is-- humiliating-- swimming with her head up? |
14863 | A lot of useless old live stock-- all but Sallie, and she''s worse-- worse, hey?" |
14863 | A woman like Sallie would not be content with producing less than a dozen of her kind-- hey?" |
14863 | Ai n''t that the understanding, Tuny?" |
14863 | Also, could the time ever come when a woman would n''t risk hanging over the ragged edge of Heaven to hold on to the hand of some man? |
14863 | And I--""Oh, Mrs. Shelby, is it-- is it smallpox?" |
14863 | And truly if the world is in the dusk of the dawn of a new day, what can men and women do but cling tight and feel their way-- together? |
14863 | And whom did she have sitting at her blue, embroidered linen elbow but Richard Hall himself? |
14863 | Are you coming? |
14863 | Are you sure that he is not a fit subject for your consideration in the matter of a choice for a mate? |
14863 | Be frank with Polk as to how much he asphyxiates me? |
14863 | Besides, why should a man want to take an independent, explosive, impudent firebrand with all sorts of dreadful plots in her mind to his heart? |
14863 | But I wonder what I would do if Sallie attired him in any of the late Henry''s wearing apparel? |
14863 | But suppose I do get Polk calmed down to a nice friendship after old Plato''s recipe, what if I want to marry him? |
14863 | But that is_ all_--and it does n''t sound revolutionary, does it, Jane? |
14863 | But why should n''t I? |
14863 | But, suppose I should lose all love for everybody in this queer quest for enlightenment I have undertaken? |
14863 | CHAPTER IV SWEETER WHEN TAMED? |
14863 | CHAPTER X TOGETHER? |
14863 | Can we turn and make good the fight-- or wo n''t we be torn to death? |
14863 | Can you come and git her loose for me?" |
14863 | Can you marry me in the morning so we can take the noon express from Bolivar? |
14863 | Could he be trifling with Jane? |
14863 | Could human nature have done better than that? |
14863 | Could such achievement be for me? |
14863 | Did you choose me wisely for these experiments, Jane? |
14863 | Do I want to marry a friend? |
14863 | Do all women feel about the Crag as I do? |
14863 | Do you not see it in that light?" |
14863 | Do you think we can make it?" |
14863 | Evelina?" |
14863 | Glad to have you home, child, good young blood to stir me up-- hey?" |
14863 | Go on and read it and do not disturb the workings of my brain while I wait for James-- workings of a great brain-- hey?" |
14863 | Great idea of mine and that Yankee girl''s-- great idea-- hey?" |
14863 | Has honeysuckle- garbed Old Harpeth been seeing things like this go on for centuries and not interrupted? |
14863 | Has n''t it been a lovely day?" |
14863 | Have I your permission to withdraw? |
14863 | Her helplessness is very beautiful and tender, but in a way tragic, do n''t you think?" |
14863 | How are you, Evelina, and are you crazy, Sallie Carruthers?" |
14863 | How can he help loving Sallie with her so emphatically there? |
14863 | How could you be so mistaken, as to both him and his personal appearance, as to apply such a name as Crag to him?" |
14863 | How could you have ever thought such a man as he is lacking in seriousness of purpose, dear?" |
14863 | How do I know that he has n''t had all sorts of cold, creepy feeling''s keeping him from proposing to Caroline? |
14863 | How does a man even know if a woman is--? |
14863 | How long is the torture to go on?" |
14863 | How old is this Mr. Hayes, on whom you have chosen to note the reactions of sisterly affection? |
14863 | How was I to know what was going on on the other side of the fan? |
14863 | I did n''t want Mr. Haley, but what if I had? |
14863 | I know Widegables is wide, but that is a houseful, is n''t it?" |
14863 | I see that, and I want to help-- but if I''m stupid about life, will you hold my hand in the dark?" |
14863 | I sometimes feel ashamed of the catastrophes I have to pray quick about, but what would I do if I could n''t? |
14863 | I wonder if men have as good times planning the culmination of their suits as I am having with mine? |
14863 | Is n''t it a glorious thing to realize that neither she nor I will have to sit and be tortured by waiting to see what those men are going to do? |
14863 | It would then be nip and tuck between you and Sallie which got James-- nip and tuck-- hey?" |
14863 | Jasper?" |
14863 | Joshua?" |
14863 | May I?" |
14863 | Might as well marry her-- hey?" |
14863 | Now will you promise to be happy?" |
14863 | Now, how did he know I called him the Crag in my heart? |
14863 | Now, what do you think of that, Jane? |
14863 | Now, will she?" |
14863 | Oh, may I go, Sallie? |
14863 | Piled rotten old business and big family on to James''s shoulders, and then died-- good time-- hey? |
14863 | Polk?" |
14863 | Poor James-- hey?" |
14863 | Poor tot, she does have a hard and hardening time-- and how can I lecture her for swearing? |
14863 | SWEETER WHEN TAMED? |
14863 | Shall I double and take refuge in a labyrinth of subterfuge or turn and fight? |
14863 | Shall I give you some sort of written agreement?" |
14863 | Surely he would n''t refuse me, but how do I know for sure? |
14863 | TOGETHER? |
14863 | Ten babies, twenty babies if necessary-- hey?" |
14863 | The commanding, black old man, and the happy- faced, plump, little yellow woman, had saved one situation-- and forced another, perhaps? |
14863 | Uncle Peter?" |
14863 | What about that? |
14863 | What could any woman want more than her work and a man like that? |
14863 | What do you think?" |
14863 | What do you want to fool with Evelina this time of day for anyway?" |
14863 | What is it?" |
14863 | Where''d you get that Yankee school- marm-- hey? |
14863 | While you are in the drug store, if you have time, wo n''t you please select me a new tooth- brush and some nice kind of paste that you think is good? |
14863 | Why do n''t she get a husband and a baby and settle down? |
14863 | Why should n''t I tell Jane what I really thought of Cousin James and discuss him broadly and frankly? |
14863 | Why should n''t I want to eat by myself? |
14863 | Will you believe me?" |
14863 | Will you give me a hearing?" |
14863 | Women are all fools,--hey?" |
14863 | Women with no brains-- but all heart-- all heart-- hey?" |
14863 | Yes, why ca n''t I love Polk as I love you, Jane, and have him enjoy it? |
14863 | Yes, why? |
14863 | You are not being tempted to shirk any of your duties of womanhood because of your interest in your art, are you? |
14863 | You had heard of my loss?" |
14863 | You see, Evelina? |

36771 | As he looked down the slope below he thought the snow seemed broken-- by footprints, was it? |
36771 | As the two dripping horses struggled up the steep incline he asked,"Did the man with her see the manifestation also?" |

36771 | Seems toler''ble long range fur a pistol, do n''t it? |
36771 | Sometimes in a seeming pause he could catch their lisping sibilant tones repeating, repeating-- what? |
36771 | Suddenly--"Ever weigh him?" |
36771 | THE PHANTOM OF THE FOOT- BRIDGE OLD JOEL QUIMBEY"''WHY''N''T YE GIN DAD THEM MESSAGES?''" |
36771 | The Quimbey and Kittredge factions poured into the hall; what cared they for the disputed claims of Jenkins_ versus_ Jones? |
36771 | The mystic letters, the inspired words, where were they? |
36771 | Then aloud,"Whar''s mam?" |
36771 | Then, lifting his gloomy, long- lashed eyes to the bridge far up the stream, he asked,"Whose''harnts''?" |
36771 | Then, taking thought and courage together,"Ye ca n''t say the Bible ai n''t down on''strong drink''?" |
36771 | Was ever chorus so sweet as this? |
36771 | Was not the stranger furnished with the fullest credentials-- a letter to Roxby from the Colonel? |
36771 | Was this the seer of ghosts-- Dundas marvelled-- this the Millicent whose pallid and troubled phantom already paced the foot- bridge? |

36771 | Why could he not have discovered Leander''s whereabouts earlier, and by now be jogging along the road home with the boy by his side? |

3745 | How at home you are in all this-- this? |
3745 | How can you be hungry when you ate your breakfast not two hours ago? |
3745 | How does he manage such-- such awful ones? |
3745 | How old was he when he went to college? |
3745 | How''s Mis''Bostick, Tom? 3745 How''s that pain in your side?" |
3745 | I wonder if your Maw remembered the lime water faithful? |
3745 | If I choose one for to- day, when will you wear the other? 3745 If just blue jeans britches could be made to do we might make out to get the top of them rigged out in a white shirt apiece; could n''t we, Bettie?" |
3745 | Is it true? |
3745 | Is n''t it too bad for Mrs. Tutt to feel that way and miss the wedding? |
3745 | Just wait and look at these chickens; ai n''t they pretty? 3745 Let''s hurry and get that bucket of water; do n''t you hear them singing the doxology?" |
3745 | Let''s see-- say them over again-- white dress, pink parasol, rose hat, how did they go? |
3745 | Martin, do you want me to wash your face and hands and come go visiting with me? |
3745 | Met your fate? |
3745 | Miss Elinory, did you gargle your throat with that slippery- ellum tea I thought about to make for you last week? |
3745 | Now begin at the beginning and tell me just what is the matter with your Aunt Prissy? |
3745 | Now that we''ve both refused each other do you suppose we can go on and be happy? |
3745 | Now what''s all these conniptions about? |
3745 | Now, ai n''t that the truth? |
3745 | Now, what''s your trouble, Tom Mayberry? |
3745 | Oh, did he? |
3745 | Oh, will you really? |
3745 | Run fetch the tea- cake bucket from the kitchen safe,''Liza, and wo n''t you come sit down, Deacon? |
3745 | She is n''t so old she can''t-- can''t recuperate when the lovely warm days come to stay this summer, is she? |
3745 | She loves me and I love her, so that, do you think, I might-- I might learn? 3745 The frock coat let it be-- and shall we say the rose gown? |
3745 | The little girls ought to have white dresses and the boys-- well, what could the little boys wear? |
3745 | Wait a minute, Mis''Pike,said Mother hurriedly,"are you sure they have et cherry seeds? |
3745 | Want her to have a beau? |
3745 | Was there ever, ever anybody just like her? |
3745 | Was you able to fix him up, Tom? |
3745 | Well, Susie,said Mother Mayberry,"do n''t you feel kind to her yet?" |
3745 | Well, how did you get along with him, honeybird? |
3745 | Well, you do n''t expect no such thing of Tom Mayberry as that, do you? |
3745 | What are you going to do with them, Mother? |
3745 | What are you going to wear? |
3745 | What did he do when he saw you? |
3745 | What did he say, child? |
3745 | What did they do and just what did she say? |
3745 | What did you do? |
3745 | What earthly use can the United States Government have for night drawers and chimeses? |
3745 | What happened to it? |
3745 | What have you been doing all morning? |
3745 | What? |
3745 | What? |
3745 | What? |
3745 | When are you going to have the pie, Mother? |
3745 | When can we begin? 3745 Where did you send him to school first?" |
3745 | Where have you been? |
3745 | Who did it to you? |
3745 | Why ca n''t you? |
3745 | Why, Squire,she questioned anxiously,"have anything happened? |
3745 | Why, what did he do, Squire? |
3745 | Why, what did them scamps do? |
3745 | Why, what have my child been a- doing to be spoke of this way? |
3745 | Why, what is it? |
3745 | Why, what is the matter? |
3745 | Why, what''s the matter? |
3745 | Why, who is this? |
3745 | Why, who, son? 3745 Will you let me know if I can do anything for anybody or the Deacon later?" |
3745 | Will you take command? 3745 Would you want L''ELEONORE more than you do just plain Elinor Wingate, care Mother Mayberry, Providence, Tennessee?" |
3745 | Would you wear a white embroidery and lace or a rose batiste? 3745 Would you-- like me any better if I had it back?" |
3745 | You are n''t busy, are you? |
3745 | You realize, do you not, dear lady, that your friendliness to-- to us all, commands my intensest loyalty? 3745 You say, do you, that I''ll never sing again?" |
3745 | ''Liza, honey, how''s the baby?" |
3745 | About how many bad stumped toes is they in Providence now?" |
3745 | Ai n''t it stylish?" |
3745 | Ai n''t it wonderful?" |
3745 | Ai n''t my baby a- growing?" |
3745 | Ai n''t she the prettiest and most stylishest girl you have ever saw? |
3745 | Ai n''t you got none of the suffering- women new notions at all?" |
3745 | And ai n''t she cute about it? |
3745 | And ai n''t you a- going to pass a compliment on Elinory and me, both with new frocks wored to please you?" |
3745 | And what did I find? |
3745 | Any news along the Road?" |
3745 | Are you a- going to follow her peaceable all over Europe, Asia and Africa?" |
3745 | Are you ready to start to Italy on short notice and then on to India?" |
3745 | Are you sure she enjoys it and is not just doing it to help or because she thinks she ought? |
3745 | But can she stand it?" |
3745 | But have you been in to the Deacon''s this morning?" |
3745 | But have you heard the news?" |
3745 | But he ai n''t neither here or there and--""Where is he?" |
3745 | But he could n''t make you take oil, could he?" |
3745 | But what about the collation, Bettie? |
3745 | But what''s the news, Sister Mayberry?" |
3745 | CHAPTER VI THE PROVIDENCE TAG- GANG"Miss Elinory, do you think getting married and such is ketching, like the mumps and chickenpox?" |
3745 | Ca n''t loving people do nothing for''em, Miss Elinory?" |
3745 | Ca n''t we take some of the church carpet money and get Mr. Hoover to buy him a pair when he hauls corn to town Monday?" |
3745 | Ca n''t you hatch out a idea, Elinory?" |
3745 | Ca n''t you stay a little while, till we can stand to let you go? |
3745 | Ca n''t you take my voice with you and use it-- as one of your-- remedies? |
3745 | Ca n''t you try to help me out about that coat and the silk hat?" |
3745 | Could I stay just a few minutes?" |
3745 | Dearie me, could that shadow be a chicken- hawk? |
3745 | Did n''t Bud Pike tell you last night how he cut his little brother''s mouth and did n''t hurt him a bit, neither? |
3745 | Did you all know that Bettie Pratt were a- going to get married in about two hours and a half?" |
3745 | Did you ever notice how''most any down- heart will get up and go a- marching to a laugh tune? |
3745 | Did you have on some new clothes? |
3745 | Did you know that spangled Wyandotte hen have deserted all them little chickens and is a- laying again out in the weeds behind the barn? |
3745 | Did you succeed in getting Mrs. Tutt to change her mind about honoring the festivities?" |
3745 | Do either of you all need it?" |
3745 | Do n''t you even hope you will be; able to think up no kind of tantrums to keep Tom Mayberry from being happy?" |
3745 | Do n''t you hear Miss Prissy playing the organ for you?" |
3745 | Do n''t you know I''m the daughter of a doctor, and the wife of a doctor and the mother of one as good as either of the other two? |
3745 | Do n''t you want to beat up some with Cindy''s help? |
3745 | Do they ever ask you where you bring''em from?" |
3745 | Do you know that much?" |
3745 | Do you know what this soft moonlight aspect of Providence reminds me of, with those tall poplars down the Road and the wide- roofed houses and barns? |
3745 | Do you reckon she''ll be satisfied to take Sam Mosbey when she comes again? |
3745 | Do you suppose for all the wide world I would throw away what I have found here in Providence under Harpeth Hills-- my Mother and you? |
3745 | Do you suppose, do you, that we can put the chickens to bed for Mrs. Mayberry? |
3745 | Do you think so?" |
3745 | Does it make you want a beau too, Miss Elinory?" |
3745 | Elinory, child, did you ever hear one of them young men''s life- commencement speeches made?" |
3745 | Fill up Martin Luther sometime soon, will you?" |
3745 | For one instant the singer woman went white to the eyes and swayed back against the vine, then she asked huskily,"Did HE say so?" |
3745 | Had n''t that always been his mother''s unconscious policy out on Harpeth Hills? |
3745 | Have you been by to see him?" |
3745 | Have you noticed that both the Deacon and Mis''Bostick look mighty peaky? |
3745 | How are Miss Elinory to- day? |
3745 | How are your side this morning?" |
3745 | How''s the throat, child?" |
3745 | I seem to feel that the hot theaters and the crowds that have looked at me and-- am I what she has a right to demand in your wife?" |
3745 | I wonder if she would lend me that long- tailed waist she wears to get the pattern off to make me and Clara May and Pattie one?" |
3745 | Is Mis''Tutt tooken with lumbago again?" |
3745 | Is that a bargain and is everybody ready to step into line?" |
3745 | Is there nothing that can be done about it?" |
3745 | It was kinder smart of you to cure her and then claim her sweet self as a fee, was n''t it?" |
3745 | It would be a good thing to double one failing mistake up into two successes, would n''t it? |
3745 | Just look, Elinory, did you ever see a worser hole than this?" |
3745 | May I go out to the kitchen and get Cindy to make a little chicken soup for Mis''Bostick now? |
3745 | Mayberry?" |
3745 | Mis''Mayberry, could we get Jem into shoes, do you reckon? |
3745 | Now ai n''t they pretty?" |
3745 | Now are you well over your tantrum, sir?" |
3745 | Now wo n''t we have a good time?" |
3745 | Now, what did you do, Bud?" |
3745 | Oh, ca n''t you, ca n''t you see what she''s doing for me?" |
3745 | Or do you--?" |
3745 | Ought n''t you to be fair about taking folk''s beaux just like taking they piece of cake or skipping rope?" |
3745 | Play actor, ai n''t you, girl?" |
3745 | Reckon we can persuade him to try a couple of slices of old ham onct in a while so as to give a few broilers time to get legs long enough to fry?" |
3745 | Shall I or you tell her? |
3745 | She have waded through much pain and sorrow, but do it matter along how hard a Road folks travels if at last they come to they Providence?" |
3745 | Soon?" |
3745 | Then suddenly she stretched out her hand to him and, as he took it into his, she asked very quietly with just the one word,"When?" |
3745 | They ai n''t no worldly feeling as good as having your clothes admired, is they?" |
3745 | What color do you prefer?" |
3745 | What did I do with that other sock?" |
3745 | What did she eat last night for supper? |
3745 | What matter if I never sing again?" |
3745 | What was he like?" |
3745 | What will he do if I can really sing it? |
3745 | When did Doctor Mayberry go?" |
3745 | Where did you eat the preserves, children?" |
3745 | Who told you about it?" |
3745 | Who''s down now and what did you do for''em?" |
3745 | Why not? |
3745 | Will you go too, Mother, as retained physician?" |
3745 | Wo n''t it be lovely? |
3745 | Wo n''t that be fine?" |
3745 | Would you think they could be any worser?" |
3745 | Yes, Mis''Nath, did you ever see such a show of decorations? |
3745 | You are not going, are you?" |
3745 | You do n''t feel in no ways peculiar, do you?" |
3745 | You wo n''t never go now, will you?" |
3745 | You''ll do for Doctor Tom nice, now you''ve got him, wo n''t you?" |
3745 | You''ll just promise to remember always that I do understand and go on being happy with us, wo n''t you-- us country folks of Providence Road?" |
3745 | Your father brought her and her herb basket to Providence, wo n''t you take me and my songs out into the world with you? |
3745 | gasped Miss Wingate in dismay;"have I ruined them?" |
10621 | ''At so? |
10621 | ''S matter? |
10621 | A brooch? |
10621 | A little under the weather, Aunt Ca''line? |
10621 | Ai n''t you de man whut''s gwine to ma''y Miss Cissie Dildine? |
10621 | Ai n''t you see whut it''s all in? |
10621 | And what are you doing here in Cairo? |
10621 | And you do n''t want me to go with you, Peter? |
10621 | And you made good? |
10621 | And you want me to help you? |
10621 | Anything else? |
10621 | Are n''t you going to school? |
10621 | Are those curtains velour, Peter? |
10621 | Are you offering me a permanent place, Captain Renfrew? |
10621 | Are you sick, Mother? |
10621 | Are-- are you about to-- to leave me, Peter? |
10621 | Arrested him on an old crap charge? |
10621 | Aunt Rose,said the young man, wistfully,"why are you always angry?" |
10621 | Aw, is that you, Siner? |
10621 | Boil it? |
10621 | But whuffo, whuffo, nigger, is it dat you ai n''t come to de kitchen an''eat off''n de shelf? 10621 But whut''s de use doin''hit ef we kin manage to shy roun''some o''dat wuck an''keep on libin''anyhow, specially wid wages so high?" |
10621 | But, my God, Doctor,gasped the son,"I''ll pay you--""Have you got the money there in your pocket?" |
10621 | But-- but how can a stroke of the pen, a mere gesture, estop a whole class of American citizens forever? |
10621 | Ca n''t go? |
10621 | Ca n''t you see how much there is for us black folks to do, and what little we have done? |
10621 | Can you trace the circulation of the blood? 10621 Captain, who in the world-- who could have told--""Are you?" |
10621 | Captain,he said with a certain stiffness,"I apologize for my mistake; but may I ask how you desire me to act?" |
10621 | Cissie? |
10621 | Come, Jim Pink, what do you know? |
10621 | D''recken it''s so? 10621 Desertion?" |
10621 | Did n''t you know where I was staying? |
10621 | Did n''t you know you''d get into trouble? |
10621 | Did old Becky Davis send you to me with any such proposition as that, Peter? |
10621 | Did you ever hear Bob Taylor''s yarn about Uncle''Rastus''s funeral? 10621 Do you know how I''ve built up my business here, Peter? |
10621 | Do you mean my school- teaching? |
10621 | Do you mean the study, Captain? |
10621 | Don''reckon nobody could git a deed off on you wid stoppers in it, does you? |
10621 | Don''you know''bout Tump Pack already, Mister Siner? |
10621 | For whom? |
10621 | Has he gone to jail? |
10621 | Has it been out of fix for three days? |
10621 | Have a good time in jail, Bob? |
10621 | Have you heard what Henry Hooker done to Siner in the land deal? |
10621 | Have you-- been looking for me? |
10621 | He-- was trying to get Cissie out? |
10621 | Heah in Niggertown? |
10621 | Hey, Peter,he drawled, winking at old Mr. Tomwit,"been investin''in real estate?" |
10621 | How came you to turn down my proposition, Mr. Tomwit,he asked,"after we had agreed and drawn up the papers?" |
10621 | How do you feel? |
10621 | How do you know you want to go at all? |
10621 | How do you like this place, anyway, Peter? |
10621 | How long''s he up for? |
10621 | How the hell can he arrest him when he hit town this minute? |
10621 | How''d you get here? |
10621 | How''s that? 10621 I believe you were wanting me, Captain?" |
10621 | I mean what is our aim, our goal, whom are we trying to be like? |
10621 | I sho is picked up, ai n''t I? |

10621 | Is that a highboy? |
10621 | Is that you, Peter? |
10621 | Know it now, do n''t you? |
10621 | Leaving Hooker''s Bend? |
10621 | Like something tearing in the next room? |
10621 | Look here, Mother, you''re not using old canned goods that have been left over? |
10621 | Look here, are you puffed up because Cissie Dildine struck you for a ten? |
10621 | Me? |
10621 | Mother,asked Peter, thickly, through his swelling mouth,"do you want to know what did happen?" |
10621 | News? |
10621 | No? 10621 No?" |
10621 | Oh, Peter Siner; Caroline Siner''s sick? 10621 Oh, is that it?" |
10621 | On what grounds? |
10621 | Peeping where? |
10621 | Persimmon,he said uneasily,"what in the world are you talking about?" |
10621 | Peter, do you really mean that? |
10621 | Peter,she asked in a low tone,"did you ever think what we colored people are trying to reach?" |
10621 | Racially? |
10621 | Serious? |
10621 | She''s not ill? |
10621 | Sick o''yo''deal, Peter? |
10621 | So soon after your mother''s death, Peter? |
10621 | So you are n''t going to marry me, Peter? |
10621 | Stoppers-- what do you mean by stoppers? |
10621 | Surely, you''re not too ill to be kissed? |

10621 | Then you mean that you want me to stay here with you until-- until the end, Captain? |
10621 | Then you-- you wo n''t? |
10621 | There, there, dear, dear Cissie, what is the matter? 10621 Tired?" |

10621 | After a while it fizzled out to nothing at all, and the Persimmon asked in a queer manner:"Did you give Tump some women''s clo''es, Peter?" |
10621 | And have n''t we met before somewhere? |
10621 | Apparently, he discovered nothing, for he said shortly:"How do I know before he''s tried? |
10621 | Are n''t they trying to look like white girls?" |
10621 | As he entered the rickety gate, old Caroline called out:"Whut is you after, anyway, white man?" |
10621 | At any rate, after these reflections, Peter now felt sure that marriage would cure him of his mission; but how had Cissie known it? |
10621 | Before the negro could reply, he added:"Was you on the Harvard football team, Siner? |
10621 | Bobbs?" |
10621 | Bobbs?" |
10621 | But, Mr. Killibrew, would n''t you like better and more trustworthy servants as cooks, as farm- hands, chauffeurs, stable- boys? |
10621 | By the way, Peter,"he broke off cheerily,"you ai n''t happen to see Tump Pack, is you?" |
10621 | Could Henry Hooker force them to pay the remaining seven hundred? |
10621 | Could n''t you spare five dollars, Bobbs, to go along with this?" |
10621 | D''reckon I could git in the navy, Siner?" |
10621 | D''reckon I could make the football team? |
10621 | Dear Peter, do n''t you_ know?_ You ca n''t go out and talk like that to white folks and-- and not have some terrible thing happen to you! |
10621 | Did dat fool Cap''n set up a nigger in dis bedroom winder jes to ketch ole Rose packin''off a few ole lef''-overs?" |
10621 | Did she enjoy her vituperation, her continual malice? |
10621 | Dildine?" |
10621 | Does n''t your cook carry away cold food?" |
10621 | Ef Peter ai n''t to be foun''at eider en'', wha is he?" |
10621 | Guess the white fellers have a pretty gay time in Harvard, do n''t they, Siner? |
10621 | Had he read them in a book? |
10621 | Have you seen Tump Pack anywhere?" |
10621 | He called Peter''s name in the strained voice of a man struggling not to cough:"Peter-- is Mr. Bobbs done--''rested Cissie?" |
10621 | He explained this to the Persimmon, and tacked on a curious,"Why?" |
10621 | He paused a moment, then asked:"Peter, have you ever thought that we men of the leisure class owe a debt to the world?" |
10621 | Hoccum dis?" |
10621 | How could he present so grave a message? |
10621 | How did that globe get bent?" |
10621 | How had she struck out so involved a theory, one might say, in the toss of a head? |
10621 | If he were innocent, why should not such a big, strong youth have stayed and helped an old gentleman off with his overcoat? |
10621 | If you''d go North--""What about you, Cissie? |
10621 | Indeed, what could he say? |
10621 | Is I bringin''dish- here breakfus''to a nigger?" |
10621 | Is you sick?" |
10621 | Let me see, where do I keep my manuscript?" |
10621 | Mars''Renfrew, whut diff''ence do it make whut Peter say? |
10621 | Musing by the window, Peter succeeded in stating his problem more broadly: Why was Captain Renfrew an intellectual reactionist? |
10621 | Next moment he heard himself saying in fairly normal tones:"Fellows, do you think we ought to be idling on the street corners like this? |
10621 | No reason why we should n''t get it over with-- Why, what''s the matter?" |
10621 | No? |
10621 | Now and then he caught a sentence:"What difference will it make?" |
10621 | Now, why such extraordinary occlusions? |
10621 | Peter waited patiently for Jim Pink to impart his information,"Well, what''s the idea?" |
10621 | Peter''s conscience smote him again for worrying his mother with his courtship of Cissie, yet what could he do? |
10621 | Peter?" |
10621 | Presently he asked:"Ai n''t you Mr. Peter Siner?" |
10621 | Presently he surprised himself by calling over his shoulder, as a sort of complaint:"How came you with the pistol, Tump? |
10621 | Right now?" |
10621 | Say, if Henry was n''t kind of held back by his religion, he''d use a gun, would n''t he?" |
10621 | Say, is Cissie Dildine at home?" |
10621 | Say, nigger, wha- chu doin''in heah, anyway? |
10621 | She was talking again, very earnestly, almost tremulously:"Why do n''t you go North, Peter? |
10621 | Should he accede to Tump Pack''s possession of Cissie Dildine and give up seeing the girl? |
10621 | The old negress considered this solemn speech, and then grunted out:"Which en''?" |
10621 | The women shivered and asked of the darkness,"_ What_ makes the negroes howl so?" |
10621 | Then whut fur dey go roun''peepin''at each other lak a couple o''niggers roun''a haystack?" |
10621 | They moved along for some distance in silence, when the girl asked:"What are you going to do now, Peter?" |
10621 | They-- they are n''t married, are they?" |
10621 | Tomwit?" |
10621 | Tomwit?" |
10621 | Tump stared after him a moment and presently called out:"Heah, nigger, whut you gwine do?" |
10621 | We ought to be at work, do n''t you think?" |
10621 | Well, what of it?" |
10621 | Wha you fum, nigger?" |
10621 | What about it?" |
10621 | What can I do?" |
10621 | What publisher shall we have publish these reminiscences? |
10621 | What signified their endless pages about dualism and monism, about phenomenon and noumenon? |
10621 | What were the boys raising such a hullabaloo about?" |
10621 | What you mean, ridin''my tribulations?" |
10621 | What''s so funny? |
10621 | What''s the matter with old Caroline?" |
10621 | Who told you I was? |
10621 | Whom should I marry?" |
10621 | Whut''s matter wid you, Peter? |
10621 | Why index a lot of nonsense? |
10621 | Why not?" |
10621 | Why should this Cissie Dildine trig herself out in sumac? |
10621 | Why? |
10621 | Why?" |
10621 | Will you do what I want?" |
10621 | With unpremeditation? |
10621 | Would n''t you prefer to give your cook a certain cash payment instead of having her taking uncertain amounts of your foodstuffs and wearing apparel?" |
10621 | Would you expect an educated stud horse to pay no attention to a mare, sir? |
10621 | [ Illustration:"You- you mean you want m- me-- to go with you, Cissie?" |
10621 | black man, whut''s Cissie doin''?" |
10621 | is you los''yo''way?" |
10621 | oh, Ahnt Carolin'', may I enter?" |
10621 | she ejaculated,"didn''you bow yo''haid while yo''mammy ast de grace?" |
48937 | About what? |
48937 | Ai n''t I told you that we''re all officers of the law, and I''m sheriff of this here county, and I aim to do my duty as sworn to perform it? 48937 Ai n''t he the sweetest thing?" |
48937 | Ai n''t nobody never goin''to dance? |
48937 | Ai n''t that Flent Hands''s hawse? |
48937 | Ai n''t that so, Callista? |
48937 | Ai n''t ye gwine to stay to preachin''? |
48937 | Ai n''t you afeared you''ll make him mad ef you take''em off? |
48937 | Ai n''t you goin''to tell a body''howdy''? |
48937 | Air you goin''with me? 48937 Air you right well?" |
48937 | All of it? |
48937 | An''you wo n''t let me come about any more-- you wo n''t speak to me? |
48937 | And does the Bushareses and Adam Venable and his wife know hit? 48937 And where was you and Buck a- goin''?" |
48937 | And you will sit alongside of me? |
48937 | And you wo n''t go with me? |
48937 | Anything the matter with you- all? |
48937 | Are you aimin''to get''em to stop the marriage? |
48937 | Are you going to trade, or are you not? |
48937 | Brother Lance? 48937 Callista Gentry has n''t took you, has she?" |
48937 | Callista, air you asleep? |
48937 | Callista-- sweetheart,he whispered with his lips against her hair,"we do n''t want nothin''of them folks back there, do we? |
48937 | Can you make out what it''s meant for? |
48937 | Did Ellen and Jane cry much? 48937 Did n''t I tell you I was mighty busy?" |
48937 | Did n''t you know about it? 48937 Did you build the chimney, Lance?" |
48937 | Did you he''p Lance to choose Callisty''s slippers? |
48937 | Did you send me word that you was a- goin''to have me call off the dances? |
48937 | Did you sure enough[ 382]_ send_ that word by your father to the sheriff?--Did you_ say_ you''d give up and go in-- did you? |
48937 | Did you- all have any idee as to what it would suit best for? |
48937 | Do I think what''s wise? |
48937 | Do n''t I tell you that it''s the ruination of the best of''em? 48937 Do n''t you want to come and go''long? |
48937 | Do n''t you want to come in and see the new things Pappy brung up from the Settlement? 48937 Do you mean--?" |
48937 | Do you reckon blue angels would be more better? |
48937 | Do you think I''d lead the law to Buddy? 48937 Do you think I''d tell on my own brother? |
48937 | Fixed it like that, do you mean? |
48937 | Flenton, have they sent word to your Uncle Billy''s folks? |
48937 | Good land, Polly-- cain''t you take this chap over yon in the woods and lose her? |
48937 | Had n''t I better buy you a pair of slippers? |
48937 | Have n''t got him named yet? |
48937 | Have they? |
48937 | Have ye, Callista? |
48937 | Have you got any women''s slippers-- that size? |
48937 | Have you got it with you? |
48937 | He do n''t go off and leave you in this kind of weather without any wood? |
48937 | How many miles, how many years? |
48937 | How many years, how many miles, Far from the door where my darling smiles? 48937 How old is that chap back thar?" |
48937 | How you come on, Sis''Callie? |
48937 | How''s all your folks, Flent? |
48937 | How''s that, Callista-- is it so for a fact? |
48937 | I ax you, is it true? |
48937 | I hear you''ve quit yo''husband-- is that so? |
48937 | I wonder could you thread one for me, Callisty? 48937 I''m not saying anything against your speakin'', am I?" |
48937 | I-- I thought ye was, or I-- ain''t ye gwine to stay? |
48937 | I-- was you leavin''in thar becaze I come? |
48937 | Is Mr. Gentry about the place? |
48937 | Is he gone away? |
48937 | Is it? 48937 Is that all, now, Liza? |
48937 | Is there anyone else you''d wish me to bid, mother? |
48937 | It-- it ai n''t yo''gospel quilt, Sis''Roxy, is it? |
48937 | Lance ai n''t got any land cleared to speak of over on his place, and he ai n''t put in any crop; how air the both of''em to live? 48937 Lance, oh Lance!--ain''t it too bad?" |
48937 | Lance, wo n''t you please lift that there coffee off o''the fire? 48937 Lance-- air you asleep?" |
48937 | Liza, have you seed Callista anywhar''s? |
48937 | Me settin''up to you? |
48937 | Not you and Callista? |
48937 | Now then, why need we talk of such this morning? |
48937 | O- oo- oh,he said in a soft, careless voice,"did n''t you- all know that I aim to have dancin''? |
48937 | Oh, Callisty, do n''t you- all want to come over to our house? 48937 Oh, Lance-- ain''t you a- goin''to come back and have the weddin''?" |
48937 | Oh, Lance-- she ai n''t said yes, has she? |
48937 | Oh, ye air, air ye? 48937 Oh, ye air, air ye?" |
48937 | Oh,said Hands dropping back a step,"so if Lance wo n''t be friendly with me, you wo n''t neither-- is that it?" |
48937 | Oh-- Flent''s dead then? |
48937 | Oh-- one o''them thar_ di_-vo''ces, you mean? |
48937 | Say Polly, you tell her I aim to have her do the callin''off-- you hear? 48937 Settin''up to you?" |
48937 | Sylvane, whar''s that branch of leaves I sent you after? |
48937 | Take Cindy-- from you? |
48937 | That so? |
48937 | That thar''s Jacob''s Ladder, Ellen-- don''t you see the postes, and the pieces a- goin''acrost? |
48937 | There-- don''t you think that looks better? |
48937 | They say that Flenton Hands is-- is-- Did you go to Flenton''s funeral, Ola? |
48937 | They told me at Father Cleaverage''s that they was goin''to send here and fetch you in-- is that so? |
48937 | They''ve started, have they? |
48937 | Time? |
48937 | W''y, Callisty honey,ejaculated Mrs. Gentry, examining her anxiously,"is anything the matter with Lance?" |
48937 | Was you and Pap a- fussin''? 48937 We- e- ell, well,"he drawled, with a lazy laugh in his voice,"have you and Sis''Roxy made a match of it? |
48937 | Well, air you going to promise me never to name it again? |
48937 | Well, what are you going to do about selling the land? |
48937 | Well, you and me ai n''t going to fuss, anyhow, are we, Ola? |
48937 | Well, you''ll tell her that, wo n''t ye, Buddy? |
48937 | Well,he prompted finally,"what''s the trouble? |
48937 | Well-- have you studied? |
48937 | Whar was you at? |
48937 | Whar ye gwine? |
48937 | Whar-- whar ye gwine, Lance? |
48937 | Whar-- whar you goin''? |
48937 | What Shall He Have Who Killed the Deer? |
48937 | What about the Aspel Yearwoods out in Big Buck Gap-- has anyone went out there? 48937 What do you say, Callista?" |
48937 | What do you think about it, Sis''Callie? |
48937 | What for? |
48937 | What has Flenton got to do with it? |
48937 | What made you send Father Cleaverage with such word as that?--and never let me know!--Oh, Lance, what did you do it for? 48937 What preachers is a- comin''?" |
48937 | What time will you- all be back? |
48937 | What you pesterin''me about it for? 48937 What''d you eat?" |
48937 | What''s that thar? |
48937 | What''s the use of him settin''here all the time playin''for you- all to have fun, and him never gettin''any? 48937 What''s the use of telling him what he already knows mighty well and good?" |
48937 | Where do the men live? |
48937 | Where you goin''now? |
48937 | Where''d I better take Sate? |
48937 | Who said anything about wives and husbands? |
48937 | Who you goin''to ride with, Callista? |
48937 | Who''s with you-- who packed all this? |
48937 | Whose chickens were they-- them you and Ola Derf caught? |
48937 | Whose chickens? |
48937 | Whose field are you going to? |
48937 | Whose outfit did Pappy hire? |
48937 | Why do n''t you put it up on his back? |
48937 | Why do n''t you say it? |
48937 | Why hain''t you bidden out all them folks in thar? 48937 Why, Lance, honey,"said the widow in a coaxing tone,"you ai n''t rightly ready for a wife, air ye? |
48937 | Will you lead us to whar Lance is at, or will you not? |
48937 | Wo n''t you come into the house? 48937 Wo n''t you go hunt up Callista and tell her I want her? |
48937 | Women? 48937 Would you name it to her?" |
48937 | Would you rather have your victuals raw? |
48937 | Would you say so? |
48937 | You ai n''t got another frock to yo''name'', an''what am I a- goin''to do with you? |
48937 | You come up and tell me jest how Granny looked before you- all go, wo n''t you? |
48937 | You goin''to ride with me to the buryin''tomorrow? |
48937 | You hear now? 48937 You here, Callisty?" |
48937 | You might speak for yourself-- but who''s to speak for me? 48937 You will?" |
48937 | You''ll go over to Squire Ashe''s soon in the morning, wo n''t you Lance and see about the land? |
48937 | You''ll trust me? 48937 You''re a- comin'', ai n''t you, Lance?" |
48937 | You''re not going to leave us, air you? |
48937 | You, Mary Ann Marthy, I do know in my soul you''the worst child the Lord ever made: Where do you expect to go to when you die? 48937 You-- you''re a- comin'', Lance?" |
48937 | You-- you''ve done a sight of work on that, have n''t you, Sis''Roxy? |
48937 | Your man? |
48937 | ''Nen Adams, he''s mad''caze he do n''t git none; an''--Mammy,"with a burst of tears,"is I thest like my uncle Lance?" |
48937 | --and[ 61] again, out of colorless drumming,"How many years? |
48937 | ?" |
48937 | A man that will do you this- a- way on yo''wedding day, what sort o''husband is he goin''to make? |
48937 | Ai n''t got a word to say about how many rooms in the house, nor whar the shelves is to be, nor nothin''--eh?" |
48937 | Ai n''t that about right?" |
48937 | Ai n''t you never scared about what he might do? |
48937 | Aimin''to put up a cabin-- fixin''to we d?" |
48937 | Air ye hurt?" |
48937 | And Faithful Yearwood, that married Preacher Crowley-- ain''t they livin''down in the Tatum neighborhood?" |
48937 | And listen to the banjo; it was no wistful, questing melody of"How many miles, how many years?" |
48937 | And though the little whistle went questing on with its"How many miles-- how many years?" |
48937 | Are you a true friend, that does n''t want me to get snake bit?" |
48937 | Are you all right till the folks get back?" |
48937 | As Cleaverage walked away, the mother prompted, almost indignantly,[ 78]"Why did n''t ye go down to the draw- bars with him, Callista? |
48937 | At the door his sister Roxy met him, clutching his arm, staring over his shoulder with fear- dilated eyes, and whispering huskily,"Whar is he? |
48937 | Buck, cain''t you?" |
48937 | But go now, honey, wo n''t you-- please? |
48937 | But what of the bride? |
48937 | But what''s a- goin''to be here?" |
48937 | But-- I''ll ax you fa''r and open-- do you think hit''s wise?" |
48937 | Cain''t we leave here? |
48937 | Can Mammy''s gal say all that and say it right?" |
48937 | Can she cut out a hickory shirt and make it? |
48937 | Can she mix a decent pone o''corn bread, and bake it without burnin''half her fingers off? |
48937 | Cleaverage?" |
48937 | Could a man have asked more? |
48937 | Could he not command the events and individuals of his own household by simply being himself? |
48937 | Could he take them with him to that remote place where his spirit abode so often in loneliness? |
48937 | Could n''t you lead to it?" |
48937 | Could she kill a chicken and pick and clean it and cook it-- could she do it ef she was a starvin''? |
48937 | Derf said the filly was named Cindy; but I call her Sin-- how do you like that?--Satan and Sin?" |
48937 | Did memory come to either of the chill, inhospitable hearth she had once refused to tend? |
48937 | Did n''t you know it, Callisty?" |
48937 | Did not Adam, when Eve called him to help her with fresh roses for the bower she was decking, know the same? |
48937 | Did old Fletch Daggett''s slovenly, overworked young wife cook any worse than she, Callista, had been able to? |
48937 | Did she, Callista, compare in any way unfavorably with the Derf girl? |
48937 | Did you want to see him special, Lance?" |
48937 | Divide our hearts by pain and fears?" |
48937 | Do n''t I know?" |
48937 | Do n''t he look feisty?" |
48937 | Do n''t you reckon that''d be the best way?" |
48937 | Do n''t you- all want to have a little dance after the meeting''s out-- on the Threshin''-floor Rock up the branch?" |
48937 | Do they fit ye, Callisty?" |
48937 | Do you just despise all them that''s kin to-- would you ruther we did n''t have the boy?" |
48937 | Do you reckon the meat fryings will make your fish taste all right? |
48937 | Do you want me to buy her back for you? |
48937 | Do you want to go now?" |
48937 | Does that arm feel better now?" |
48937 | Ef he comes to you with any sech, I want you to send for me to deal with him-- you hear? |
48937 | For no reason which he could have given, the sound of a banjo whispered in his memory,"How many miles, how many years?" |
48937 | Gentry? |
48937 | Good, ai n''t they?" |
48937 | Griever?" |
48937 | Had he found Ola an entirely satisfactory companion? |
48937 | Has Callista? |
48937 | Have I asked yo''ruthers? |
48937 | Have n''t you had about enough of this?" |
48937 | Have ye told him adzackly the kind of house ye want? |
48937 | Have you- all fixed for pumpkin[ 181] cutting? |
48937 | He was taking a long breath, having barely got under way, when Lance stopped him with a curt,"Well,--are you goin''to do it-- or are you not?" |
48937 | He went out then, only to come hurriedly back, reporting,[ 205]"I cain''t find any wood-- whar does Lance keep it?" |
48937 | He''s liable to drop off any time; and who''d take Lance Cleaverage then, I''d like to know? |
48937 | Here was the singer of"How many miles, how many years?" |
48937 | How about you?" |
48937 | How could he have done otherwise than he had done? |
48937 | How dared he look like that-- as though he knew all her straits-- the shifts to which she was now reduced? |
48937 | How did she look, honey? |
48937 | How on earth did you get here-- all alone-- at night this- a- way?" |
48937 | How"--and now the tones faltered a little--"how is she?" |
48937 | I ai n''t fit to have Callista, is that it? |
48937 | I''m goin''to make you take it back, and beg pardon for it on your knees, Flenton Hands-- on your knees, do you hear me?" |
48937 | If a wedding without Lance was like that, what would the infare be in Lance''s own house? |
48937 | In outward form these two were already his; could he make and hold them truly his own? |
48937 | Is Mary a- comin''?" |
48937 | Is that a- goin''to trouble you? |
48937 | Is this yo''business? |
48937 | It made no question now of"How many miles, how many years?" |
48937 | It must be sun- up outside, ai n''t it?" |
48937 | Just above his breath Lance voiced the words:"How many years, how many miles, Far from the door where my darling smiles? |
48937 | Lance lay tensely quiescent a moment, then he questioned softly,"Is that a sign?" |
48937 | Lance, did you hear me?" |
48937 | Lance-- Won''t you go now, please, honey? |
48937 | Lance-- aw, say, Lance-- do you? |
48937 | Lance? |
48937 | Lance? |
48937 | Lance? |
48937 | Lance?" |
48937 | Must his child be born under the roof of another? |
48937 | Now sons, now daughter, air ye ready? |
48937 | Now, havin''a livin''wife and a infant child, he cain''t make no good deed without you sign; and what I want to know is, has he axed you to sign sech? |
48937 | Oh, Callisty, air you goin''with me now?" |
48937 | Oh, ai n''t it awful, Callista? |
48937 | Reckon if you folks are givin''a dance you wo n''t heed a invite? |
48937 | Shall I go-- or stay?" |
48937 | She could a''done better-- that''s what you want to tell me, ai n''t it?" |
48937 | She had no audience now-- how should she act, how demean herself so as to seem indifferent? |
48937 | She resented the dismay in his face when he came back asking:"Do you know what''s come of that deer? |
48937 | She''s just a little old gal, and you''re a good- sized crowd of able- bodied folks-- what harm can she do you?" |
48937 | She''s quit her man; and do you think hit''s wise to visit so much at the house where she''s stayin''? |
48937 | Sheriff!--hey, you, Beason!--Why do n''t you arrest that feller?" |
48937 | Thar, ai n''t that fixed all right now? |
48937 | That was right, was n''t it? |
48937 | The only question is, how soon and how best can I get at Flenton Hands and stop it?" |
48937 | The tune he whistled had in it reminiscences of Lance''s"How many years, how many miles?" |
48937 | Then, as a second jerk shook and rattled the dangling bit of wood,"Ai n''t you got[ 107] no sense?" |
48937 | There was no whisper now of"How many miles-- how many years?" |
48937 | WHAT SHALL HE HAVE WHO KILLED THE DEER? |
48937 | Was Vander Blackshears here? |
48937 | Was he not man enough to rule his domestic affairs? |
48937 | Was he so willing to send her where she would meet Flenton Hands? |
48937 | Was not something due from Callista because she had him? |
48937 | Was that a countenance asking sympathy, begging for quarter? |
48937 | Was this Lance, the indifferent, taunting, insouciant, here under her window alone, looking up so at her-- playing, singing, to her? |
48937 | Well, what then? |
48937 | Whar''s Lance?" |
48937 | What I want to know is whar he''s at and how bad hurt is he? |
48937 | What are you offering?" |
48937 | What did he say-- you ai n''t never told me that yit-- what did Lance say''bout the dancin''anyhow?" |
48937 | What did you want to do that for?" |
48937 | What do you aim to take for the debt as it stands, me to pay you today? |
48937 | What had he come here for? |
48937 | What makes you do so much of it, Sis''Callie?" |
48937 | What now?" |
48937 | What should she do? |
48937 | What was he to do? |
48937 | What was it he had thought to compass by coming here with her? |
48937 | What was it she wanted to know of Lance? |
48937 | What would I be doin''down thar amongst all tham men? |
48937 | What you got it all dark here for, Lance? |
48937 | What you needin''all this here money for, anyway?" |
48937 | What''ll I do when they take you from me? |
48937 | What''ll you take, Lance?" |
48937 | What''s a''keepin''you? |
48937 | What, at such a juncture, would be her attitude? |
48937 | Where were the lightnings of Heaven, set apart for the destruction of the impious? |
48937 | Where''s Mother?" |
48937 | Who could the"somebody"waiting for her out there be-- somebody who arranged all these precautions with such care and exactness? |
48937 | Who is it?" |
48937 | Who of them all was the least bit like Lance, her man of men, with his quizzical smile, his blithe, easy mastery of any situation? |
48937 | Who wants to kill you, you fool boy?" |
48937 | Why ai n''t you been home, honey? |
48937 | Why did n''t you tell me, and put my mind at rest?" |
48937 | Why should I be mad at it?" |
48937 | Why was the realization not enough? |
48937 | Why wo n''t you come to my party?" |
48937 | Why''n''t you git me that branch o''leaves, Sylvane?" |
48937 | Will that suit?" |
48937 | Would you call a whale a beast or a fish?" |
48937 | Would you go fetch''em for me, Brother?" |
48937 | Ye ai n''t goin''to be mad with us becaze Callista and her folks never was friendly with us, air ye?" |
48937 | Yet of what use would such a piece of timber be to a woman? |
48937 | Yet-- to be forgiven, to be accepted-- when had Lance Cleaverage ever desired such boons? |
48937 | You can find work for Lance on the farm, cain''t ye, Pappy?" |
48937 | You had n''t promised somebody else to ride with''em, had ye, Callisty?" |
48937 | You will come, wo n''t you, Lance?" |
48937 | You''ll be the first one to ride in it-- ain''t that fine? |
48937 | Young Shalliday, he-- What preachers did Callisty say was a- comin''?" |
48937 | [ 10]"Ye hear that, Callisty?" |
48937 | [ 264]"You do?" |
48937 | [ 308]"What is it to me where you come or where you stay?" |
48937 | [ 76]"Well,"Grandfather Gentry began after a time,"ai n''t this ruther sudden?" |
48937 | ai n''t that pretty? |
48937 | how many miles?" |
48937 | jeered the grandfather,"and who might you be, young feller?" |
48937 | she cried,"what you studyin''about, Liza? |
31406 | ''And do you think,''said he,''that I am to be bound by the last words of a man too far gone to know his own mind in the matter?'' 31406 ''But what is the use of roast meat, if we are to be roasted too?'' |
31406 | ''Follow-- where?'' 31406 ''For yourself, you black rascal?'' |
31406 | ''Member de lickins? 31406 ''Sert you? |
31406 | ''Then why did n''t he give it to you before, instead of requiring me to make such a sacrifice? 31406 ''Who is your master?'' |
31406 | A gentleman? 31406 A shave?" |
31406 | Able, child? 31406 About the schoolmaster? |
31406 | Ai n''t to home, none of''em, hey? |
31406 | Ai n''t wanted, Cudjo? 31406 All ready?" |
31406 | All right so far, Pepperill? |
31406 | All safe? |
31406 | All? |
31406 | Amuse me? 31406 And Pomp?" |
31406 | And are you so very weary of the cave? |
31406 | And did he not promise to do so? |
31406 | And did you give it me? |
31406 | And do you know there''s a secret passage from this cellar into the cellar under Jim''s shop? 31406 And do you maintain that you did not go willingly?" |
31406 | And do you remember a conversation you had with Lysander under a bridge? |
31406 | And how you that day took a journey to be away from us in our trouble? |
31406 | And if I comply? |
31406 | And if I had n''t took ye in season, you''d have returned to your base- born mire, would n''t you? |
31406 | And my daughter? |
31406 | And my dead child up yonder? |
31406 | And my faithful servant? |
31406 | And now, what is to be done? 31406 And our friends!--Carl!--have you heard from them?" |
31406 | And that is petter as being hung? |
31406 | And the property? |
31406 | And they have no suspicions? |
31406 | And vat shall you do? |
31406 | And we must conceal him? |
31406 | And what can we do? |
31406 | And what did he reply? |
31406 | And what is to become of me? |
31406 | And what? |
31406 | And where but here? |
31406 | And where is Aunt Deb? |
31406 | And ye knows whar she ar? |
31406 | And you will use it if necessary? |
31406 | And you would have us submit to them? |
31406 | And you? |
31406 | And you? |
31406 | Any one hurt? |
31406 | Anything? |
31406 | Are they well? 31406 Are ye sartin ob dat, massa? |
31406 | Are you asleep? |
31406 | Are you going again? |
31406 | Are you lost? 31406 Are you ready?" |
31406 | Are you sure the man is dead? |
31406 | Are you sure? |
31406 | Are you well, my child? |
31406 | Bold? |
31406 | But all this happened before I came to Tennessee, did it not? 31406 But how came you here? |
31406 | But how came_ she_ here? |
31406 | But how can I resolve to send a guest from my house in this way? 31406 But how do you know, my son,----""How do I know he''s there? |
31406 | But how? |
31406 | But is Mr. Villars safe? |
31406 | But is n''t she a Grace? 31406 But suppose I can show you that you are wrong, and that even by your own laws we are not, and can not be, property?" |
31406 | But whar''s the schoolmaster? |
31406 | But what comes o''de rock? |
31406 | But what had they done to him? |
31406 | But what had you done to merit such cruelty? |
31406 | But what''s he so dead set agin''the master fur? |
31406 | But why do you prefer to be away when the fun is going on? |
31406 | Ca n''t eat, sar? 31406 Ca n''t you see for yourself?" |
31406 | Can you change these rocks under our feet with empty words? |
31406 | Can you show me that spot, Toby? |
31406 | Captain,they replied,"if you not know, how should we know? |
31406 | Carl what? |
31406 | Carl, what''s this? |
31406 | Carl, why do n''t you come too? |
31406 | Condition? |
31406 | Could n''t you find nowhere else to go to? 31406 Could n''t you move the horse?" |
31406 | Danger? |

31406 | Dat? 31406 Daughter, are you here?" |
31406 | De gemman? |
31406 | Dead? |
31406 | Dead? |
31406 | Deslow,laughed Stackridge, himself not ill pleased with Pomp''s arguments,"what do you say to that?" |
31406 | Did I tremble, did I shrink when you carried me through the fire? 31406 Did n''t somebody knock me on the head?" |
31406 | Did n''t we trust you? 31406 Did n''t you hear me tell ye to stop?" |
31406 | Did somepody say somepody is a willain? |
31406 | Did you meet any person on the road, travelling north? |
31406 | Did you not bring my daughter with you? |
31406 | Did you say_ shtop_? |
31406 | Do you believe Deslow will be delivered up? |
31406 | Do you hear anything? |
31406 | Do you know how to use it? |
31406 | Do you know that name? 31406 Do you know this ravine?" |
31406 | Do you remember the night my father was arrested? |
31406 | Do you see any landmarks yet? |
31406 | Do you think it was not a bitter cup for me? 31406 Do you?" |
31406 | Does old Pete visit you since? |
31406 | Does that suit you? |
31406 | Don''ye see? 31406 Dreadful? |
31406 | Fear so? 31406 Find him?" |
31406 | For me, Miss Villars? |
31406 | Gentlemen, will you fight? 31406 Go in?" |
31406 | Gone out, to- night? 31406 Good idee?" |
31406 | Got him? |
31406 | Has he killed him? |
31406 | Has the colonel orders to make the arrests? |
31406 | Have n''t I just got avay from Stackridge? 31406 Have n''t I told you not to_ wake him_?" |
31406 | Have some? |
31406 | Have you anything to confess? |
31406 | Have you had any more trouble since Pomp left you? |
31406 | Have you let Toby go? |
31406 | Have you plenty of arms? |
31406 | Have you two been together long? |
31406 | He wishes to speak with me? 31406 Her? |
31406 | Hey? 31406 Hey? |
31406 | Hey? |
31406 | Him? |
31406 | His name? |
31406 | How are you getting on, boys? |
31406 | How came we property, sir? |
31406 | How came you here, sir? |
31406 | How came you here? |
31406 | How corrupted, my friend? |
31406 | How dare you come back without her? |
31406 | How did I leave them? |
31406 | How do I know you are shmart? 31406 How do you know I am?" |
31406 | How far is it now to your ravine? |
31406 | How is he?--much injured? |
31406 | How large was this spot, this island? |
31406 | How long,she added immediately,"do you imagine we shall have to stay here?" |
31406 | How many friends have you with you? |
31406 | How many slaves do you own? |
31406 | How old is he? |
31406 | How old is she? |
31406 | How shall we get news to you? 31406 How so?" |
31406 | How''s it my fault, I''d like to know? |
31406 | How? |
31406 | I a deserter? 31406 I believe you partly promised it to me, did n''t you? |
31406 | I can read for one; and as for the rest, what good would it do''em to be edecated? 31406 I fancy you do n''t know very well where you are, sir,"said the negro, with a smile;"and you do n''t know me either, do you?" |
31406 | I suppose Toby has told you the news? 31406 I think-- you are my preserver-- are you not?" |
31406 | If you are so independent in your movements, why have you never escaped to the north? |
31406 | If you will disgrace yourself, how can I help it? |
31406 | Is he in the willage? |
31406 | Is it for me?'' |
31406 | Is it true what that man is saying? |
31406 | Is it you, Daniel, who are to bear witness against me? |
31406 | Is it you, Hapgood? |
31406 | Is it you, Mr. Stackridge? 31406 Is it you, Penn? |

31406 | Is not that what you would have said to me if you had found me in your power after making me such a promise? 31406 Is that so?" |
31406 | Is the passage behind the spot where Mr. Villars is sitting? |

31406 | None missing? |

31406 | Where is Carl to- night, Toby? |
31406 | Where is Carl? 31406 Where is Salina? |
31406 | Where is Virginia? |
31406 | Where is he? |
31406 | Where is he? |
31406 | Where is the fellow? |
31406 | Where is the master? |
31406 | Where shall I go and borry to- day? |
31406 | Where you from? |
31406 | Where your husband? |
31406 | Where''s Hapgood? 31406 Where''s Sile? |
31406 | Where? 31406 Where?" |
31406 | Which of us goes down into the ravine? |
31406 | Which? |
31406 | Who dar? |
31406 | Who eber knowed you''s sech a powerful smart chil''? |
31406 | Who is it? |
31406 | Who is with you? |
31406 | Who told you to speak? |
31406 | Who warned you? |
31406 | Who will be disappointed? |
31406 | Who''s the fish this time? |
31406 | Who''s there? |
31406 | Who''s_ me_? |
31406 | Who-- what is it? |
31406 | Who? 31406 Who? |
31406 | Why did they take you prisoner? |
31406 | Why do n''t you hurry up this business? |
31406 | Why do n''t you kill and eat him? |
31406 | Why do n''t you speak? |
31406 | Why forbid him? |
31406 | Why go down there at all? |
31406 | Why not send for him? |
31406 | Why should n''t a cullud pusson hab de right to be honest, well as white folks? 31406 Why should we blacks have anything to do with this quarrel?" |
31406 | Why, what is the matter? 31406 Why, what''s the matter, Toby?" |
31406 | Will Salina come too? |
31406 | Will no one save me? 31406 Will you give me a safe conduct?" |
31406 | Will you stay here, or go with us? |
31406 | Would I be any better off there? 31406 Would n''t take the pistol? |
31406 | Would you like some cheese? |
31406 | Would you like to hear something of my story? |
31406 | Would you see her die? |
31406 | Ye pooty sick, sar? |
31406 | You are the fellow that enlisted to save the schoolmaster''s neck, ai n''t you? |
31406 | You de lady of de house? |
31406 | You have heard from them, then? |
31406 | You know they druv me to it, do n''t ye? 31406 You let Cudjo do what him pleases?" |
31406 | You mean to say, if you are licked, then you wo n''t tell? |
31406 | You offer yourself as a substitute, eh, if I will spare his life? |
31406 | You promise to take me to the cave? |
31406 | You put on the tar? |
31406 | You saw her!--where? |
31406 | You see them little saplings? |
31406 | You see vair the rock comes down? 31406 You take it?" |
31406 | You tell now? 31406 You try your chance wid Cudjo agin, miss?" |
31406 | You understand? |
31406 | You vill take me prisoner? |
31406 | You''re partic''larly interested in the young man, hey? |
31406 | You, Miss Jinny? 31406 You? |
31406 | You? 31406 Your heart is a- burnin'', ai n''t it?" |
31406 | ''Fraid your friends will get scorched?" |
31406 | ''How so?'' |
31406 | ''Josh,''says he,''what ye doin''thar? |
31406 | ''Member my gal ye got away? |
31406 | ( she gazed at him affectionately),"you ai n''t in no great danger, be you?" |
31406 | Ai n''t dar nuffin ol''Toby can be a doin''fur ye, jes''to pass away de time?" |
31406 | All ready?" |
31406 | And Pomp-- where all this time was Pomp? |
31406 | And Virginia? |
31406 | And Virginia? |
31406 | And do you remember I vas putting some supper in my pocket ven you took me to show you the cave? |
31406 | And how was his escape from the state to be effected? |
31406 | And if I am unloved, whose fault is it but my own? |
31406 | And if there should be a little fighting to do, will you help do it?" |
31406 | And some pushes just under it? |
31406 | And was not that a human form moving dimly between him and the sky? |
31406 | And whar''s old Aunt Deb?" |
31406 | And what should we leave it for?" |
31406 | And what was this he saw on awaking? |
31406 | And what''s the use of getting away from it, even if we could? |
31406 | And you know, do n''t you, how Pete came by his licking?" |
31406 | Any thing else I can do for ye?" |
31406 | Any whiskey in the house, widder?" |
31406 | Anybody in the house?" |
31406 | Are we going to make a stand here, and see if the loyal part of old Tennessee will rise up and sustain us? |
31406 | Are you hurt?" |
31406 | As he gazed, he became extremely alarmed for the safety of Stackridge and his friends: and where all this time was Carl? |
31406 | Assuredly, they must have fled from it before this time; but whither had they gone? |
31406 | At length Captain Grudd came to him, and taking him aside, said,--"Well, professor, what do you think of the situation?" |
31406 | Betray his good old master to these ruffians? |
31406 | Blood?" |
31406 | Break his promise to Virginia, his oath to Cudjo and Pomp? |
31406 | But I suppose you know so little how you came here that you would find some difficulty in tracing your way to us again?" |
31406 | But Sprowl is to watch, and be ready to shoot me down?" |
31406 | But am I equal to it? |
31406 | But could he abandon his friends? |
31406 | But had he not the morning before given way to a natural impulse, when he seized a club, firmly resolved to oppose force with force? |
31406 | But he rallied quickly, and said,--"He cure Massa Hapgood? |
31406 | But how was he to avoid participating in scenes of violence if he remained in Tennessee? |
31406 | But how was it possible to comply with his demand? |
31406 | But how? |
31406 | But if he could not, why had he remained absent all day? |
31406 | But if you starve and beat them? |
31406 | But just then Ropes shouted at him,--"What ye at thar, Pepperill? |
31406 | But now she began to question within herself,"What would Penn think?" |
31406 | But tell me-- will you not?--how you came to inhabit this dreadful place?" |
31406 | But the corporal? |
31406 | But until I attain to these, may I not use such weapons as I have?" |
31406 | But what next could she do? |
31406 | But what''s the matter with his hands, sergeant?" |
31406 | But where were the giants? |
31406 | But where were they? |
31406 | Ca n''t you loose the rope a little? |
31406 | Can I do anything for you?" |
31406 | Can I, under all circumstances, live up to it? |
31406 | Can you deny it?" |
31406 | Can you find the way?" |
31406 | Can you, Virginia?" |
31406 | Carl was in despair at this mode of treatment, for it rendered escape impossible,--and what would become of Virginia? |
31406 | Carl''s heart gave a great bound; but he answered with an air of indifference,--"To- night?" |
31406 | Dare you?" |
31406 | Dat ar wan''t you, hey?" |
31406 | Did he look like a Union- shrieker?" |
31406 | Did n''t I say,''Is it you?'' |
31406 | Did n''t he corrupt you?" |
31406 | Did n''t he, Dan?" |
31406 | Did ye see him, missis?" |
31406 | Did you ever, in whispering some secret trifle, some all- important, heavenly nothing, just brush the dearest little ear in the world with your lips? |
31406 | Did you not promise your dying brother in your presence to give me my freedom? |
31406 | Do n''t ye know nuffin''?" |
31406 | Do n''t you know me, Wirginie?" |
31406 | Do n''t you know?" |
31406 | Do n''t you see? |
31406 | Do n''t you, Dan?" |
31406 | Do they know where I am?" |
31406 | Do you ask what made me? |
31406 | Do you know whose property this is?" |
31406 | Do you remember how I vas kept quiet ven I vas_ your_ prisoner? |
31406 | Do you think it was taking too much from one who would have robbed me of my soul?" |
31406 | Do you understand?" |
31406 | Do you understand?" |
31406 | Do you, Minny- fish?" |
31406 | Does not the color of a negro''s skin, even in your free states, render him an object of suspicion and hatred? |
31406 | Does the word sound pleasant to your ears? |
31406 | Each gun with its echoes, in those cavernous solitudes, thundered like a whole park of artillery: what, then, was the effect of the volley? |
31406 | For dem''ar white trash, what ye s''pose day knows''bout takin''keer ob a sick gemman like him? |
31406 | For do you know what will happen? |
31406 | For was he not the husband of Salina? |
31406 | Good joke, ai n''t it?" |
31406 | Got his hands tied? |
31406 | Got the schoolmaster fast?" |
31406 | Had Pomp been able to find them? |
31406 | Had Toby forgotten the strain on_ his_ wrists, and the anguish of the thumbs, when this same cruel Lysander had him strung up? |
31406 | Had he really died, and was this unearthly place a vestibule of the infernal regions? |
31406 | Had she been a slave, with a different complexion, although perhaps quite as white, would it have been any the less shameful? |
31406 | Had she recognized her son''s voice? |
31406 | Hapgood?" |
31406 | Has he gone on some errand of yours?" |
31406 | Has n''t Carl come yet?" |
31406 | Has the rule of a hard master seemed grievous to you? |
31406 | Have n''t we come through fire, following you? |
31406 | Have you anything? |
31406 | Have you got your bearings yet, Carl?" |
31406 | Have you lived in this cave ever since?" |
31406 | Have you prayers to make? |
31406 | Have you sighted your man?" |
31406 | He let me down when I was hung up on the rail, and helped me home; and so I says to myself, says I,''Why should n''t I do as much by him?'' |
31406 | He resolved to try it: indeed, all unarmed as he was, what else could he do? |
31406 | Holding the branch with one hand, and gesticulating violently with the other, he exclaimed,--"Who is boss here? |
31406 | How came you here?" |
31406 | How can I depend even upon your oath? |
31406 | How could he confront, with his sensitive spirit, those merciless, coarse men? |
31406 | How could he warn her? |
31406 | How does it happen?" |
31406 | How long have you lived here?" |
31406 | How many can read and write? |
31406 | How many men here have any education? |
31406 | How to circumvent the designs of these men? |
31406 | How''s them Dutchmen?" |
31406 | How, now? |
31406 | I can not hope to change it?" |
31406 | I have committed no crime against your laws; if I have, why not let the laws punish me?" |
31406 | I trust no serious harm has been done, my dear Virginia?" |
31406 | I was just starting out to look for them.--Who comes there?" |
31406 | I''ll have the truth out of him, or I''ll have his life?" |
31406 | I''ve tried that, and what did I get for it?" |
31406 | If he, then, is an enemy, what hope is there? |
31406 | Is it cold? |
31406 | Is it damp? |
31406 | Is it gloomy? |
31406 | Is it love that unites such, or is it only the yearning for love? |
31406 | Is it sunrise yet?" |
31406 | Is n''t she loveliness itself?" |
31406 | Is there fatality in a name?" |
31406 | Is there no law, no justice, but the power of the strongest? |
31406 | It was some time before he could reply to Penn''s impetuous demand-- what had brought him up thither? |
31406 | It will be better for the poor maddened wretch himself to prevent him; do n''t you think so, Penn?" |
31406 | It''s the Dutchman, ai n''t it? |
31406 | Jest look arter my family a little, wo n''t ye? |
31406 | Meanwhile Mr. Villars had called Toby to him, and said, in a low voice,--"Is all right with your prisoner?" |
31406 | No? |
31406 | Not that village loafer, who used to go about the streets dressed so shabbily? |
31406 | Now can you see to take aim?" |
31406 | Now you see that rock?" |
31406 | Now, how is it, Pomp?" |
31406 | Now, if he preaks his part of the pargain, vy should n''t I preak mine?" |
31406 | Now, what do you know to the contrary?" |
31406 | Once more alone with this villain, would not some interesting thing occur? |
31406 | Or might they not all have become entangled in the intricacies of the wilderness until encompassed by the fire and destroyed? |
31406 | Or shall we pity it, rather? |
31406 | Penn gave her a look full of electric tenderness, which seemed to say,"Have not I been with you? |
31406 | Penn interrupted the loose and confused narrative-- Virginia: had he_ seen_ her? |
31406 | Pepperill?" |
31406 | Pepperill?" |
31406 | Remain, hoping that he would yet fulfil his promise? |
31406 | Ropes?" |
31406 | Rough streaks along dar, hey? |
31406 | Say dat ar agin, will ye?" |
31406 | Shall I show you? |
31406 | Shall an old Virginian think less of the honor of his house than an Arab?" |
31406 | Shall we condemn the weakness? |
31406 | Shall we take this old man to our den?" |
31406 | She had been there a dozen times; but could she find it in the night? |
31406 | Since the way is opened for us to live together again, why ca n''t you make up your mind to it, let bygones be bygones, and begin life over again? |
31406 | Sprowl,''says he,''do n''t be scared; it''s only me; wo n''t ye let me in?'' |
31406 | Sprowl?" |
31406 | Stackridge?" |
31406 | Stackridge?" |
31406 | Stackridge?'' |
31406 | Strike a light, and get me some supper, ca n''t you?" |
31406 | Suddenly a voice hailed them:--"Who goes there?" |
31406 | Suddenly he paused: had he heard the words of command whispered? |
31406 | That is not an unreasonable request?" |
31406 | The bright young brow contracted:"Not coming here?" |
31406 | The fatal leap of the terrified horse with his rider is known; but how came Gad on the horse? |
31406 | The grin on the old man''s face was a ghastly one, and his eyes rolled as he stammered forth,--"Miss Jinny-- ye seen Miss Jinny?" |
31406 | The master is out, then? |
31406 | Then Carl stopped again, and said,--"You see that tree?" |
31406 | Then Lysander put the question: Was he prepared to tell all he knew about the fugitives and the cave? |
31406 | Then will you side with your avowed enemies, or with those who are already fighting in your cause without knowing it?" |
31406 | There must be sunshine, and birds, and brooks,--human nature, life, suffering, aspiration, and----""And love?" |
31406 | This is the happiest day I''ve seen----""Ah, what''s happened to- day?" |
31406 | To ask my forgiveness? |
31406 | Toby, why do n''t you bring that bootjack?" |
31406 | Too late? |
31406 | Turn agin''him?" |
31406 | Vill you leave her to die? |
31406 | Villars----?" |
31406 | Villars?" |
31406 | Villars?" |
31406 | Vot shall I do? |
31406 | Was Lysander going alone with him to the mountains? |
31406 | Was ever a hero of romance in such a dismal plight? |
31406 | Was his cry heard? |
31406 | Was it any satisfaction for him to feel that he was thus avenged? |
31406 | Was it not all a dream? |
31406 | Was it not assuming a terrible responsibility to send this rampant sinner to his long account? |
31406 | Was it on the rocks over their heads? |
31406 | Was it some animal, or only a phantom of his feverish brain? |
31406 | Was it supposed that the good old practice of applying torture to enforce confession had long since been done away with? |
31406 | Was it the beauty of the earth and sky that made him shiver with so sudden and sweet a thrill? |
31406 | Was she shocked by this cold, atrocious spirit of calculation? |
31406 | Was this murder he had committed? |
31406 | Wha''ye totin''on him fur?" |
31406 | What are you doing with that nigger?" |
31406 | What are you here for? |
31406 | What chance is there for a man like me?" |
31406 | What could that something be? |
31406 | What do you mean?" |
31406 | What do you say, youngster? |
31406 | What had become of him? |
31406 | What had she fled to the mountain for? |
31406 | What have you got those bracelets on for?" |
31406 | What hinders you?" |
31406 | What if you''d seen dat back when''twas fust cut up? |
31406 | What is going to become of us, if relief does n''t arrive soon? |
31406 | What is the matter?" |
31406 | What is there to be said which he did not say?" |
31406 | What makes you think so?" |
31406 | What right had Mrs. Stackridge to be absent when she came to borrow? |
31406 | What satisfaction can there be in taking the life of so degraded and abject a creature?" |
31406 | What shall I do? |
31406 | What shall I say to them for you?" |
31406 | What should he do? |
31406 | What should she do? |
31406 | What then? |
31406 | What was he trying to lift and drag along the ground? |
31406 | What was the man doing there? |
31406 | What was to be done? |
31406 | What we want to know is, will you join us? |
31406 | What will folks say?" |
31406 | What will you do?" |
31406 | What would the world say? |
31406 | What ye want o''Cudjo?" |
31406 | What you doin''dar? |
31406 | What''s going on?" |
31406 | What''s in this box? |
31406 | What, then, was left him but to perish here, alone, uncared for, unconsoled by a word of love from any human being? |
31406 | What, then, would be his fate? |
31406 | Where am I, anyhow?" |
31406 | Where had he been during those hours of oblivion? |
31406 | Where is Salina?" |
31406 | Where is Toby?" |
31406 | Where is your husband? |
31406 | Where''s Pepperill?" |
31406 | Where''s Sile Ropes?" |
31406 | Where''s your schoolmaster? |
31406 | Whether they will ever be happily united on earth, who can say? |
31406 | Which Toby? |
31406 | Which do you prefer-- the death of a traitor, or the glorious career of a soldier in the confederate army?" |
31406 | Who brought in this fellow?" |
31406 | Who can it be?" |
31406 | Who gib ol''Toby his freedom, an''den''pose to pay him wages? |
31406 | Who had committed the barbarous act? |
31406 | Who ye goin''to mind? |
31406 | Why ai n''t ye to work?'' |
31406 | Why did he not leave the body? |
31406 | Why did n''t you tell me before?" |
31406 | Why do n''t ye bring along that ar brush?" |
31406 | Why do you come to torture me now?" |
31406 | Why do you desert us now?" |
31406 | Why do you follow to persecute us? |
31406 | Why is it I feel such trust that Virginia will be provided for? |
31406 | Why should we care which side destroys the other?" |
31406 | Why was she sitting there, wasting the time in tears and reproaches? |
31406 | Will no one speak for my life?" |
31406 | Will you come?" |
31406 | Will you favor us with a song, Virginia?" |
31406 | Will you go back to the rebels, or make a push with us for the free states? |
31406 | Will you write? |
31406 | With those stones? |
31406 | With what, you wonder? |
31406 | Wo bin ich, mutter?_"But the words were not strange to Carl; neither was the voice strange. |
31406 | Wo n''t he hear?" |
31406 | Wonder if Mis''Stackridge and the childern have gone to the mountains too? |
31406 | Would I wish to see my country submit? |
31406 | Would he be retained a prisoner, like the rest, or delivered over to the mob that sought his life? |
31406 | Would it be safe to move him, Toby?" |
31406 | Would the schoolmaster join them? |
31406 | Would you take a look at it?" |
31406 | Yet the choice was between his life and Penn''s; and had not Pomp done well? |
31406 | You are alive and vell now, ai n''t you?" |
31406 | You feel pretty sound in your witals, do n''t you? |
31406 | You hate a man that you''ve befriended, and that''s turned traitor agin''ye, worse''n you hate an open inemy, do n''t ye? |
31406 | You might almost, I think, decide the question of a man''s Christianity by his answer to this:''What is your feeling towards the negro?'' |
31406 | You offer yourself to be whipped in this old nigger''s place?" |
31406 | You promised Captain Sprowl, did you not, that you would conduct him to the cave?" |
31406 | You remember what that was? |
31406 | You think, maybe, the discussion vould not be greatly to your adwantage?" |
31406 | You understand?" |
31406 | You vill not tell? |
31406 | _ THE OLD CLERGYMAN''S NIGHTGOWN HAS AN ADVENTURE._ Where, then, all this time, was Penn? |
31406 | ai n''t it almost too bad? |
31406 | ai n''t it the schoolmaster?" |
31406 | and Carl? |
31406 | and am I nothing to you?" |
31406 | and the snug little Villars property, did he not covet it? |
31406 | and then what would you do?" |
31406 | and vasn''t I running to find you as vast as ever a vellow could? |
31406 | are you crazy?" |
31406 | are you sure?" |
31406 | but being only a"nigger,"what else could you expect of him? |
31406 | cavalry?" |
31406 | could n''t you find''em? |
31406 | cried Lysander, recoiling into the arms of his men;"what the devil do you mean?" |
31406 | cried the old clergyman, with an energy that startled them,"what are you about to do?" |
31406 | dat you, Cudjo?" |
31406 | dat you? |
31406 | dat you?" |
31406 | did I promise to say all you wished?" |
31406 | did he not?" |
31406 | did n''t him take Massa Hapgood and make him well? |
31406 | do n''t ye know Cudjo? |
31406 | do n''t ye know?" |
31406 | do n''t you''member Toby? |
31406 | forsake Virginia and her father when the toils of villany were tightening around them? |
31406 | g''e know Cudjo? |
31406 | git mad, why do n''t ye?" |
31406 | he answered, in the same language,"is it you?" |
31406 | he called, searching among the prisoners;"is Medad Stackridge here?" |
31406 | how came you here?" |
31406 | how did he come hyar?" |
