29660''Why not? 29660 So great was the danger which he thus ran, that one of his staff said:''General, do n''t you think this is the wrong place for you?''
29660That gun must be captured,exclaimed Lieutenant Elmer J. Barker, of the Fifth New York,"and who will volunteer to charge it with me?"
29660Why do we not advance?
29660''Well,''said I,''Buford, what can I do?''
29660But as they have failed to do so, the inquiry is very general among us,"Where are they?"

30597He turned upon me and said,"Dodge, you whipped them today, did n''t you?"
30597I walked away, not thinking of Shields; but he called back to me and said,"Colonel, you are not going to leave me this way are you?"
30597The questions I wish to bring before you, however, are, What are the rights of an officer in such matters?
30597Then he said:"Ca n''t you do it again tomorrow?"
30597What Indians are engaged in the struggle?

20509One they call engine- thieves?
20509What officer?

20509Yes; where is he?
20509You are a prisoner?
20509_ Three miles!_"Is this the road?
20509But why should I dwell longer on this dreary morning?

20509Goin''to hang him when you get him to Chattanooga?"
20509He answered:"Ca n''t you write me a pass, and sign the commander''s name to it?"
20509He turned again to me, and said, in a dictatorial manner:"Who was it that run your engine through?"
20509Here I saw two rebels who seemed perfectly distracted, and were throwing their guns wildly about and exclaiming:"What shall we do?
20509I said to him as politely as I could:"I suppose, sir, our destination is not known?"
20509Need I say that, for the time, all thought of private misfortune was lost in the exhilaration of national triumph?
20509Now, we again ask, what''s the use?
20509Said he:"How old are you?"
20509Said the jailor to the captain,"Where shall I put him?"
20509Shortly after, Wells, who had resumed his seat, said in a meditative tone:"Had he a coat?"
20509Should we compromise with such fiends in human shape, and purchase their fellowship again, or give them the puishment that injured humanity demands?
20509The answers were satisfactory, and seeing nothing but truth in his clear eye, I hesitated no longer, but asked:"What can I do for you?"

20509Were they his?
20509What can cause the delay?
20509What could this mean?
20509What kind of a man is he?"
20509What shall we think of_ you_?
20509Why should a list be sent from the North?
20509and you thought you would come down here and rob us, and burn our houses, and murder us, did you?
20509that drunken fellow?"
20509what shall we do?"
20509why linger over its miseries, deepened by the faintness of the hope that they would ever cease, and give me again to the comfort and love of home?
31584Passing a man plowing corn with a fine mule, he said,"that is one of your Yankee tricks, is it?"

2617Any guerrillas?
2617Is it a good road, and how far?
2617Well, ai n''t you on our side?
2617What do you know of Uncle Billy?
2617What is to be done with the freedmen?
2617But it first became necessary to settle the important question of who should succeed General McPherson?

2617Can it be that such a resort finds root in any stratum of American opinion?
2617Can you expedite the sending to Nashville of the recruits that are in Indiana and Ohio?

2617If Hood goes to the Alabama line, will it not be impossible for him to subsist his army?
2617If the rebel leaders were to arm the slaves, what would be its effect?

2617Pausing awhile, and watching the operations of this man roasting his corn, he said,"What are you doing?"
2617Should we allow them to escape, etc.?
2617So that the only questions that remained were, would he surrender at Raleigh?
2617Some say:"I have such a one sick at my house; who will wait on them when I am gone?"

2617State what, in your opinion, is the best way to enlist colored men as soldiers?
2617Then followed the question,"Is Fort McAllister taken?"
2617This being so, how is it possible for the people still here( mostly women and children) to find any shelter?
2617What signified the terms to them, so long as we obtained the actual surrender of people who only wanted a good opportunity to give up gracefully?
2617What was to be done with the rebel armies when defeated?
2617Who ever supposed they would come away down here in Alabama?"
2617Who have prompted him?
2617Why was this, or why was all mention of any field of duty for the head of the army left out of the army regulations?
2617said a listener,"do n''t you know that old Sherman carries a duplicate tunnel along?"
26561Adjutant,I said,"What does this mean-- our having to run this way?
26561How are de poys?
26561Huh,said he,"what is it?"
26561Stillwell,asked Sam,"do you think we are going to have a fight?"
26561Well, Allender,inquired Dr. Anthony,"egad, what''s the matter with you?"
26561What did the Colonel say? 26561 What is that?"
26561What regiment is this?
26561What''s that?
26561Where is he?
26561''John,''I said, speaking low,''what in thunder do you mean?
26561Ai n''t that just perfectly bully?"
26561Ai n''t we whipped?"
26561And with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness?"
26561But the lady walked towards us and said in a very kind and friendly manner:''Do you men want anything?''
26561But,--how in the world did I happen to miss him?
26561D''ye moind that, now?"
26561Enoch Wallace came to me and said:"Stillwell, are you going to try to carry your knapsack?"
26561He looked up with an aggrieved air and responded in a tone of cruelly injured innocence,"Have n''t I the right to eat my r- a- a- tion?"
26561He turned towards me, and tilting his can slightly to enable me to see the contents, spoke thus:"Now, ai n''t this nice stuff to give a sick man?
26561I looked in the haversacks of some of the dead to see what they had to eat,--and what do you suppose was found?
26561I said to him:"Enoch, what are those men there for?"
26561I slipped out of ranks and approached the fellow, and when close to him said,"Partner, wo n''t you give me a hardtack?"
26561I turned to Phil in a fury, exclaiming,"What in the hell and damnation do you mean?"
26561I was filling my haversack with bologna when Col. Fry rode up to me and said:"My son, will you please give me a link of that sausage?"
26561Looking at us very sharply, she asked:''Do n''t you men want something to eat?''
26561Must I just lie here and suffer indefinitely?"
26561One day I said to him,"Doctor, is there nothing that can be done for me?
26561Take care of my watch, will you?
26561The officer scribbled in his note- book, then turned to me,"And yours?"
26561What did that mean?
26561What is that you say?"
26561What should I do?
26561What''s that?"
26561What''s up, Stillwell?"
26561What''s wanted?"
26561Where is Sergeant Stillwell?"
26561Who comes there?"
26561Why do n''t you shoot?"
26561and where had they come from?
26561he exclaimed, as he extended his hand,"why comest thou down hither?
16480To- morrow is Christmas!--but Beverly,--say, Will it do to be glad when Papa is away?
16480Why harrow your heart with the grief and the pain? 16480 --Do visions of trial, of warning, of woe, Loom dark in the future of doubt? 16480 Did not our hero fall Gallantly slain? 16480 Do they dream that afar, on the wild, wintry main, Their love- freighted bark must be driven again? 16480 Do they feel that their island of beauty at last Must be rent by the tempest,--be swept by the blast? 16480 Do they know They are hiving, of honied remembrance, a store To live on, when summer and sunshine are o''er? 16480 Does her thought dim the blaze?--Does it shed through the room A chilly, unseen, and yet palpable gloom? 16480 Does the patriot- flame in her heart cease to stir,-- Does she feel that the conflict is over for her? 16480 He dare not be happy, or tranquil, or blest, While his soil by the feet of invaders is prest: What brooks it though still he be pale as a ghost? 16480 I know there''s at Beechenbrook, many a tear, As she asks all the day,--''Will he never be here?''
16480Must the little children miss Still the festal token?
16480Must their realm of young romance All be marred and broken?
16480Never wear a remnant more Of their olden glory?
16480No name?--no record?
16480Shall we faint with God above, And His strong arm under-- And the cold world gazing on, In a maze of wonder?
16480Shall we tamely resign what our enemy craves?
16480She sends to the battle her darlingest one,-- She could not give both of them,--husband and son; If she lose_ you_, what''s left her in life to enjoy?
16480The largess of their praise is flung With bounty, rare and regal;--Is it because the vulture fears No longer the dead eagle?
16480Times we all remember;-- Times that flung a ruddy glow O''er the gray December;-- Will they never come again, With their song and story?
16480What need for dismay?
16480When ever were people subdued, overthrown, With women to cheer them on, brave as our own?
16480While the birdlings are spared that have made it so blest, Can you look, undismayed, on the wreck of the nest?
16480Who comforts mamma, and who helps her like you?
16480Who has time for tears, when blood All the land is steeping?
16480Why paint you the picture that''s scorching my brain?
16480Why should the dreary pall Round him be flung at all?
16480Why speak of the night when I stood on the lawn, And watched the last flame die away in the dawn?
16480With maidens and mothers at work on their knees, When ever were soldiers as fearless as these?
16480Would Papa be less hungry or cold, do you think, If_ we_ had too little to eat or to drink?
16480_ Nunc demitte_--thus I pray-- What else left for me to say, Since my life is reft away?
16480and passed Untouched through the battle,''unhurt to the last?''
16480anything,--all things, but hopeless despair: Does her darling lie stretched on the slope of yon hill?
16480for what will we do if he falls?
16480must it break with its burden at last?"

12541Did you really_ mean_, that the Indians should have been led or left to suppose that these acts were the acts of the Government?

12541How many_ more_ murders will suffice to awaken public vengeance?
12541Is it merely a contest between you and Phelps,_ which_ of the two shall be Military Governor?
12541Is it so?
12541Kansas?
12541Lane, likewise interviewed,[195] was similarly encouraging and had every reason to be; for was not his Indian brigade in process of formation?
12541Should he go on to Leroy and trust to the auxiliary force''s showing up in season or wait for it?
12541Upon what lines ought it to proceed?
12541Was Tristan l''Hermite any more the minister of tyranny, than his Provost Marshals?
12541Was it to be burnt and the owners were they to be indemnified[ Steele to Anderson, December 9, 1863,_ Confederate Records_, p. 68]?
12541Was the Star Chamber any worse than Hindman''s Military Commissions, that are ordered to preserve no records?
12541Was this violation of your promise, the act of the Government?
12541What has been my_ reward_?
12541What were we to do?
12541What, moreover, had_ you_ to_ judge_ in regard to_ me_?
12541What_ peculiar_ merit is it in_ you_ to serve on our side in this war?
12541Who is_ he_, that he should do these things in this nineteenth century?
12541Why did our command fall back?
12541Why did you and Gen. Hindman not procure by your own exertions what you need for your troops?
12541Why should they go there?
12541Will they be sufficient to picket and scout on the other side of the river far enough to give notice of any advance of the enemy down the river?
12541[ 230] What to do next, was the question?
12541[ 513] What better proof could anyone want that Pike was sustained at headquarters?
12541[ 668] Might they not go down and clean out their country for themselves?
12541[ 859] Had not white men been always singularly adept at making excuses for breaking their promises to red?

29608But what can you do? 29608 How much do you weigh, colonel?"
29608How much will you take for all there is in the cup?
29608Mr.----,said he one morning when the officers were grouped in front of his tent in response to''officers''call,''"Mr.----, have you gloves, sir?"
29608Now you know it is a rebel, do n''t you?
29608Well,said I,"have you recovered and are you ready for duty?"
29608What is the position?
29608Where did I meet you?
29608Why do you leave the hospital, then?
29608You prefer to perform your duties as a good soldier, then?
29608All wondered if the end had really come, or was it yet afar off?
29608But where was Dahlgren?
29608How about Mexico and Maximilian?
29608I said to him:"Colonel, what would you do if you were in my place?"
29608In the meantime, what was the infantry doing?
29608May it not then be said with truth that he was"distant and detached"and"without orders that contemplate the contingency?"
29608The officers were introduced, one by one, and Mr. Lincoln gave each hand a shake as he uttered a perfunctory, but kindly,"How do you do?"
29608There was a cordial shaking of hands and after the first friendly greetings had been exchanged I said:"But what does this mean?
29608What has been going on in the valley?
29608Where is Mosby?
29608Where was the enemy?
29608Where were the two divisions of Gibbon, posted for the very purpose of looking out for Longstreet?
29608While he was there a man named Mattoon, a good soldier, came up, and seeing Halleck, jumped over with the exclamation,"What are you doing here?"
29608Who can say how much it had to do in stopping the further progress of Early''s attack?
29608Who comes there?"
29608Why not put hoops on and make them into barrels?
29608Why then wonder if historians differ also?
29608Why try to prolong the war and cause further useless bloodshed?"
29608Would Lee allow that and go on to Baltimore, or turn and meet the army that Hooker was massing against him?
29608Would he?
31075Are there any of Company D of the Eleventh Reserves here?
31075Do you see that thing?
31075Well, what the---- did you wake us up for, to tell us that?
31075Why, you---- lunatic, are n''t two sleeps better than one?
31075A child may pronounce it; but what word that ever fell from human lips has a meaning full of such intensity of horror as this little word?
31075Are we a civilized people?
31075As he was picking his way stealthily among the dead and dying, he heard a well known voice calling softly near by,"Joe, Joe, is that you?"
31075But the soap mines?
31075But where_ was_ rear?
31075Do these careless men realize that they are about to decide the fate of a great nation?
31075George Preston was there, his face as honest and bright as in boyhood''s days; and George Dillinger-- or was his name Hugh?
31075Had death come more swiftly and mercifully, or was he a prisoner and unharmed?
31075Had he been disabled that first day in the wilderness and perished in the flames of the burning woods?
31075Had he been mortally wounded, and died alone in the thick underbrush which veiled so many tragic scenes?
31075Had he known that the midsummer sun would look down upon his grave, would his decision have been different?
31075Have you heard their solemn songs?
31075He looked at us with a frightened, helpless look, and asked:"You wo n''t hurt me, will you?"
31075How was it done?
31075Is it possible to eliminate the tiger from human nature?
31075Looking at me intently a moment, his face brightened, and he exclaimed:"You are Rob M''Bride, are n''t you?"
31075Perhaps they are unconscious of the greatness of the present hour; but what of that?
31075Psalm singing?
31075Was this night given over to ghosts and spirits intangible?
31075What is civilization?
31075What man of ordinary humanity can be unmoved by such surroundings?
31075Where was any thing?
31075Where was front?
31075Why do n''t these men come on?"
31075Why so?
31075Why were not the videttes, at least, advanced into the underbrush, instead of being posted at its edge, to be shot at by rebel sharpshooters?
31075[*] 2D WELDON RAILROAD,{ 190th,} Captain Birkman.(?)
12068''What regiment do you belong to?'' 12068 Ah, I beg your pardon; but what is your impression of Fort Donelson?"
12068Are you sure of that?
12068Battle sure to come off-- is it?
12068But how is it when a negro, by working nights or Saturdays, manages to make something for himself?
12068Can you tell me on which days he gave you each ticket?
12068Certainly we are,responded another;"but who will represent us?"
12068Come back here,said the officer;"what do you mean by this?"
12068D-- n your friends,said the guerrilla leader;"I suppose they are Yankees?"
12068Did you earn all these this week?
12068Do you dislike the Black Republicans very much?
12068Do you see that young man crossing the street toward----''s store?
12068How did you cross the river, gentlemen?
12068How do you know?
12068How far are you firing?
12068If it was given to them,I asked,"was it not theirs to sell?"
12068Is it possible?
12068Is the plan arranged?
12068No,we responded;"what is it?"
12068That is very true; but how was it at Shiloh?
12068Them round things? 12068 Then why ai n''t you killed, too, you d----d coward?"
12068Then why should n''t you pay me ten dollars every time I''tend upon the black folks on the plantation?
12068What are you doing here?
12068What are you doing there?
12068What kind of a Union man are you?
12068What''s you- uns come down here to fight we- uns for?
12068What_ are_ you crying for, then?
12068Where did you come from?
12068Where is K----, and where is Colburn?
12068Where were they from?
12068Which one did he give you to- day?
12068Whisky, is n''t it?
12068White people are free, too, ai n''t they?
12068Who comes there?
12068Who will we send? 12068 Will some of you learned ones tell me,"said he,"what is the Latin word for_ true_?"
12068After a little preliminary talk, one of them said:"Are you aware, general, there is no law of the State allowing you to make a cut- off, here?"
12068After a pause, she spoke again:"Did n''t you say the black people are free?"
12068After some desultory conversation, he threw out the question:--"What does martial law do?"
12068An Arkansas colonel was in bed when the order reached him, and lazily asked,"Is that official?"
12068As soon as he could speak, he asked, breathing between, the words--"Have you heard the news?"
12068But, pray, what do you consider the capture of Island Number Ten and the naval battle here?"
12068By- the- way, Mr. K----, how did you come over?"
12068Do you think, if I put them with yours, there is any danger of their straying, on account of being on a strange place?"
12068Does any soldier, who reads this, imagine himself tendering his resignation in the above manner with any prospect of its acceptance?
12068He promptly replied:"The parish of Madison gave a large majority in favor of secession; did it not?"
12068If the deeds of which the Rebels were guilty are characteristic of chivalry, who would wish to be a son of the Cavaliers?
12068Is it not acknowledged everywhere that a man shall be tried by his peers?"
12068K----?"

12068Mysteries of Mule- trading.--"What''s in a Name?"
12068Once I asked a rough- looking farmer,"How far is it to Sand Springs?"
12068Should it banish me from that spot, or should I receive an official censure?
12068Who can resist the questions of a woman, even though she be an uneducated and unkempt Missourian?
12068Who could believe in the existence of a reliable countryman, after that?
31353About noon he came to me and said,"Fuller, can you stand some good news?"
31353And what would he say?
31353As we were working our way to the front he spoke to me, and said,"Charley, am I hurt much?"
31353He at once roared out,"Who ordered you to lie down?
31353He had read the account, and I said to him,"Of course, you remember it?"
31353He replied,"Do n''t you want them to come down here?"
31353He said,"Some one has come to see you?"
31353I lay there in semi- consciousness, until the rear guard came along, when I was accosted with the question,"What are you here for?"
31353I said to him,"Are you badly wounded, Frank?"
31353I stooped down and said,"Lieutenant, do you think you are mortally wounded?"
31353I was making my way to the rear when one of the officers turned up his head and said to me,"Where in the devil are you trying to get to?"
31353It was too dark to see anything, but our ears took in every word of the question asked,"What regiment is that?"
31353King?"
31353Of what avail all our unceasing and exhaustless endurance?
31353Of what avail had it been to us that our best blood had flowed for six long days?
31353One old Irishman of Co. A, turned on me in hot anger, and asked,"Why do you say that?
31353The captain wiggled about some and then asked,"How do you know men, do you see the blood run?"
31353The question I asked myself was,"Why not test your leg gear NOW, and see what you can do as a foot- man?"
31353This was delightful information, and made us feel very jolly--"over the left?"
31353What are you crouching for?"
31353Where are the other 80?
31353While we were all on the qui vive, wondering what would come next, a voice broke forth from the woods clear and distinct,"What regiment is that?"
31353Who would answer?
31353was yee''s_ intinded_ for me?"
21976But are you not a confederate?
21976But why do you not cut down some of this forest and till more land? 21976 Have you no husband?"
21976How do you like Fort Donelson?
21976How long will it take you to load your ambulances, doctor?
21976How shall I reach him?
21976What do you want?
21976What troops are those?
21976What''ll Ole Missus do Now?
21976What,replied the militia- men,"You do n''t expect us to eat that hard tack do you?"
21976Why Do n''t he Come?
21976A laugh from the comrades of the luckless ones, while some one would call out,"Have you a pass to go down there?"
21976Boys who had plied the trade of bootblack gave up their profession and with pail and sponge in hand called to the passer by,"Wash your boots, sir?"
21976But of what use do you make it?
21976Can you not stay?"
21976Could he have died a grander death had he been spared longer?
21976Could his last words have been better chosen had he expired in the embrace of loved ones at home?
21976Deyoe, turning his face toward that of the straggler with a look of unruffled coolness and unmitigated contempt, replied,"Well, who the d-- is afraid?
21976During the lovely month of December we had been impatient for action; but now the oft repeated question,"Why do n''t the Army of the Potomac move?"
21976General Sumner rode up to him and said quietly,"General, do you know that Hooker is badly cut up?"
21976Hereafter, men were not to ask,"Who ever saw a dead cavalryman?"
21976How large a portion of this great State was in this sad condition?
21976Meridian Hill-- Neighboring scenery-- First Sunday in camp-- Drills-- Sickness-- The Hospital-- General Casey--"Why do n''t the army move?"
21976Meridian Hill-- Neighboring scenery-- First Sunday in camp-- Drills-- Sickness-- The Hospital-- General Casey--"Why do n''t the army move?"
21976Must this little be reduced?
21976She sadly leans her head upon her hand and sighs,"Why do n''t he come?"
21976The amount of hospital supplies carried in the wagons was already limited; could it be reduced?
21976The doctor stooped over him, and the boy, pressing his hand in his own, said,"You are a friend, are you not?"
21976The major says,''Doctor, can nothing be done?''
21976The writer of these pages, reining his horse to the side of the vehicle, addressed the aged negress,"Well, aunty, are all those your children?"
21976There can be but one question-- who was responsible for the criminal neglect to send the Sixth corps to the assistance of Pope''s army?
21976Was it because agriculture was unprofitable?
21976Was it because the war had put a stop to agricultural pursuits?
21976Was it worse to keep a corps out of the fight, when on the field, than to keep another corps off from the field altogether without any good reason?
21976Were reinforcements coming?
21976Were they not grand dying words?
21976Were we now, notwithstanding all our brilliant successes and our proud consciousness of superiority, to see our prestige fade in an hour?
21976Were we to pursue the retreating army, or were we to return to Washington to take a new start?
21976What cared the men of the Nineteenth corps that they were forced to lie upon the ground without tents or blankets?
21976What cared they now for the fury of the waves or the hardships of short rations?
21976What do you think of Bull Run?"
21976What was the cause?
21976What''l ole missus do now?"
21976Who would have selected this lovely valley as the scene of one of the most bloody struggles ever recorded?
21976Who would have suspected that it was the Sabbath?
21976Why were these fine lands desolate?
21976[ Illustration:"WHAT''LL OLE MISSUS DO NOW?"]
21976[ Illustration:"WHY DON''T HE COME?"]

22100How shall it be?
22100How was the news of the failure to reinforce Sumter, and of its being fired on and taken possession of by a rebellious people, received in the North?
22100I am against this, Are you for it?
22100I awaited his approach, and on his arrival accosted him with the inquiry,"What is the matter, General?"
22100If they could hold out a few days, could you help them?
22100In other respects, how dissimilar?
22100In the antithesis of this speech he asked and answered:"How can the Union be saved?
22100Is there, has there ever been, any question that by the laws of war, property, both of enemies and friends, may be taken when needed?"
22100Mr. President, do you remember the last chapter in that history?
22100Now that California and New Mexico were United States territory, how was it to be devoted to slavery to reward the friends of its acquisition?

22100Then turning to me, he said,''General Mahone, I have no other troops, will you take your division to Sailor''s Creek?''
22100They were evidently taken by surprise, and retired in the utmost confusion[?].

31887How many of our little band of warm hearts would ever again sit in the sunshine of home?
31887What would our old Revolutionary heroes say, could they but look in upon us?
31887Who shall say that the angels did not welcome him that morning to a Happy New Year, where the sound of battle is never heard?
31887Would that kind mother ever again fold her darling boy to her warm heart?
31453Did the colored troops fight much?
31453How long have you known him?
31453Now, sir; I ask you a direct question: Do you believe a Negro has got a character?
31453Then if ye had two hogs would ye give me one?
31453Then if ye had two horses, would ye give me one?
31453Well, Cap''n, if you say so, reckon I''ll have to move; but what you goin''to do when we all gits to heaven?
31453Well, sir; what is his character?
31453What did the Colonel say?
31453What sort of a man was Jones?
31453What you- ens doin''dar? 31453 At Raleigh I can jest walk right into the Governor''s office and nobody''ll say, Where you gwine? 31453 Barney says,Pat, if ye had two homes, would ye give me one?"
31453Den he say,"And what is your business here?"
31453Do n''t you see its the easiest place to live you ever saw?
31453He:"And where do I get my marbles?"
31453He:"Do I get marbles?"
31453He:"Salute how?"
31453I said,"Ai n''t you a Pennsylvanian?"
31453Jones?"
31453Now what can we do with the Negro?
31453One big, red- whiskered fellow said to me:"What you fellers doing back here so far in the rear?"
31453Solicitor:"Do you know this man?"
31453The young men looked puzzled and one said,''And where would we get the corn?''
31453Then I retorted:"You are putting it off for six months now, are you?
31453Then one says,''And how could we get the turkeys to market?''
31453They inquired,"Did you get your marbles?"
31453What greater sacrifice can any people show?
31453When he had had an insight of the coveted goal and turned in that direction, he was accosted by a harsh voice,"Whar ye goin''?"
31453Which type of civilization would endure?
31453Would the soldier and aristocrat, or the merchant and artisan, survive in the struggle which had already begun?
31867But how was it to be done?
31867Had he lived-- but what need is there of conjecture now?
31867_ G._--"Were you addressing the officers in the prison?"
31867_ G._--"What did you mean by it?"
31258Ah,*** h''m,*** Did you see no farmers''houses around anywhere?
31258Gideon''s Band?
31258Hail Columbia?
31258Kingdom Coming?
31258Where are the wagons?
31258All around to me seems darkness; Tell me, comrades, is this death?
31258And what did they sing?
31258But how turned?
31258CHORUS: Soon with angels I''ll be marching, With bright laurels on my brow; I have for my Country fallen, Who will care for mother now?
31258Could it be"done"?
31258Did many pass here yesterday?"
31258Did these highly favored fellows know, I wonder, through what tribulations these precious messages had passed to reach their hands?
31258Do you see that farm house three- fourths of a mile over yonder, glancing white among thickly clustering trees?
31258Gently smooth her wrinkled forehead?
31258How Can I leave her in her anguish?
31258In the half- dug trenches were-- whom, think''st, reader?
31258In thus turning our backs upon Gettysburg, whither we supposed we were bound, we might naturally wonder"what next?"
31258Or what was the matter?
31258This same soldier, on his way to rejoin his regiment met a Pennsylvania youngster with whom he had the following colloquy:--"Many more back?"
31258Was the enemy in pursuit?
31258Were we falling back to Harrisburg?
31258What does it mean?
31258Who goes there?"
31258Who had the courage to go out to the very advance, taking his life in his hand, with no more than musket range between himself and the enemy?
31258Who will care for mother now?
31258Who will care for mother now?
31258Who will comfort her in sorrow?
31258Who will dry the falling tear?
31258Who will whisper words of cheer?
31258Would it keep on raining till it flooded the road and us?
31258Yet who would withhold from these veterans the honor of having been participators in the great struggle?
31258and that string of lads along the fence down there, on their way toward it?
31258and was this the sign from the gods?
31258how well I know your answer; To my fate I''ll meekly bow, If you''ll only tell me truly, Who will care for mother now?
31969I thought, to what extent is this slaughter to go on, and when will the sacrifice for patriotism''s sake be complete?
31998For was not God my father, Jesus my elder brother, and Heaven my home?
15644Are they sincere?
15644Bullion or coin?
15644But were there not many who if they had opportunity would have proclaimed themselves for the United States Government?
15644Did he tell you to bring it to me?
15644How do you know?
15644How was he killed?
15644I saw him die ten minutes ago?
15644Why?
15644[*] Can a jealous God consolidate and perpetuate a power commenced in perjury? 15644 -- One more Move-- but how? 15644 -- One more Move-- but how? 15644 -- Was my Oath binding? 15644 -- Was my Oath binding? 15644 -- Why? 15644 -- Why? 15644 Among the questions to be settled by this war, are not these important? 15644 B._ Now, honey, be aisy, ca n''t ye? 15644 B._ Och, Colonel dear, ye would n''t be so bad as that, would ye? 15644 B._ Ye''ll gag me, will ye? 15644 But how could this be accomplished? 15644 But the question now arose, where was the guard to come from-- no one would answer to the guard detail? 15644 But what could one man, and he a youth and a stranger, do against a corrupt and reckless populace? 15644 But what plea shall shield the sin which claims to love one''s own petty State better than either country or God? 15644 But, in this case, can it be done safely? 15644 Did he not deserve my special care?'' 15644 Does any reader say,You did wrong-- you had better have died than have given your name to such an infamous and causeless rebellion?"
15644Does the reader ask, Why such sacrifice?
15644From their stand- point, why should it?
15644Has not the day of avenging already commenced?
15644He called out,"Pat, what have you got in your gun?
15644He seemed overcome, and said,"My friend, why this kindness to an enemy?"
15644How have they secured and manufactured an adequate supply of these, during such a protracted and destructive struggle?
15644How long is this system of terrorism to continue?
15644I came up to him, and said,"You seem to be badly wounded, sir; will you have some water?"
15644Is it possible to treat such a number as banditti, without inaugurating a more bloody retaliation and massacre than the world has ever seen?
15644Morgan asked, in short quick words,"Do you understand my orders?"
15644Must all the cruelties and iniquities which accompany its existence be left unchallenged, and their authors uncondemned?
15644Saffarrens, ran into the river waist- deep, in his desire for safety, when one of his men called out,"Captain, dear, are ye off for Memphis?
15644Shall an American citizen be allowed in safety to travel or reside anywhere in his own land?
15644Shall there be any freedom of opinion and speech upon the question of slavery?
15644Should the Federal authorities suspect me of having been in the Rebel service, would they allow me to take the oath and go my way?
15644Still, can there be no calm and considerate discussion of the rightfulness or sinfulness of the laws which define and regulate slavery?
15644The general stood near, why should not others?
15644The question is often asked, Where does the ammunition come from to supply the Southern army?
15644Their commander was equally non- committal, and demanded,"Who comes there?"
15644Then, how was I to travel thirty miles before daybreak, as it was now two o''clock?
15644This utter disregard of law and the sanctity of human life?
15644To his question,"Are you wounded?"
15644Was I not demonstrating my sentiments, by seceding from a government which affirmed the right in its fundamental law?
15644When he had read it, he asked--"Why did you not take this to General Johnson?"
15644When we sat down to eat and missed a messmate, the query went round,"Will it be my turn next?"
15644Where is your wound?"
15644Whiskey?"
15644Will you do it?"
31977Was your colonel drunk or crazy this morning, that he attacked with less than one hundred men the best fighting division of the Confederate cavalry?
31977His armies tread their glorious march Over the eternal plain, Their leader rides a snow white steed, Who follow in his train?
31977The Confederate General Rosser said to a member of the regiment whom he met after the war:"You belonged to the Fourth Massachusetts Cavalry?
31977What place hast thou to fill?
31977Where art thou gone-- old friend and true?
31991Can he ever forget the holy inspiration of the silent cheer from his speechless father, mother, sister or lover as he passed them?
31991Can the picture ever fade?
31991Seeing this, our Colonel raised his hand in a forbidding attitude and called out,--"Why, boys, you would not shoot a man in that way, would you?
32013A slight which, on this occasion, elicited from that neglected individual an order forbidding"this ridiculous(?)

LINCOLN, ORIGIN OF THEGREENBACK"CURRENCY TO COLONEL B. D. TAYLOR EXECUTIVE MANSION, WASHINGTON, December[ 16?
2659About how old is he?
2659And as it is to so go at all events, may we not agree that the sooner the better?
2659And how is it to be at"this place"--and that is Saint Louis?
2659And if A and B should agree, how can they know but that the General Government here will reject their plan?
2659And if so why is it done?
2659But how is there a session before the recent election returns are in?
2659But what next?
2659But why any proclamation now upon this subject?
2659But why tender the benefits of this provision only to a State government set up in this particular way?
2659Can Louisiana be brought into proper practical relation with the Union sooner by sustaining or by discarding her new State government?
2659Can it be?
2659Can not you help me out with it?
2659Can there be a worse case than to desert and with letters persuading others to desert?
2659Can you not come?
2659Could you, without embarrassment, assign him a place, if directed to report to you?
2659Did you not receive them?
2659Did you receive the despatch?
2659Do the 1500 prisoners reported by General Sedgwick include the 400 taken by General French, or do the Whole amount to 1900?
2659Do they not have the hardest of it?
2659Does Joe Heiskell''s"walking to meet us"mean any more than that"Joe"was scared and wanted to save his skin?

2659INTERVIEW WITH JOHN T. MILLS, AUGUST[ 15?
2659If not, does it indicate anything?
2659Is there any good objection?
2659Is there any sign of the rebel legislature coming together on the understanding of my letter to you?
2659It is a pertinent question, When is this war to end?
2659MAJOR- GENERAL BURNSIDE, Knoxville, Tenn.: What is the news?
2659MAJOR- GENERAL ORD, Army of the James Is it true that George W. Lane is detained at Norfolk without any charge against him?
2659MAJOR- GENERAL SICKLES, New York: Could you, without it being inconvenient or disagreeable to yourself, immediately take a trip to Arkansas for me?
2659May I ask those who have not differed with me to join with me in this same spirit towards those who have?
2659May I use it?
2659Shall I give him a pass for that object?
2659Shall they be admitted?
2659Tad wants some flags-- can he be accommodated?
2659The question is, Will it be wiser to take it as it is and help to improve it, or to reject and disperse?
2659WASHINGTON, D. C., July 9, 1864 J. W. GARRETT, Camden Station: What have you heard about a battle at Monocacy to- day?
2659Was it possible to lose the nation and yet preserve the Constitution?
2659Well, what does Sandy Hook say about operations of enemy and of Sigel during to- day?

2659Who should quail while they do not?
2659Why shall A adopt the plan of B rather than B that of A?
2659Will the Secretary of War please accord it to him?
2659Will you march on with him?
2659You came, and I said to you:"What can we do?"
2659what does this mean?
2659when did he write the letters?
32111But what good did it do then to sell rations, under the pretext of raising a company fund?
2836Did Stanton tell you I was a fool?
2836All criticism of Lincoln turns eventually on one question: Was he an opportunist?
2836And did Yancey play into its hands?
2836And what did the Secretary of the Treasury do?
2836And what of Lincoln?
2836And what was that ideal?
2836As a force in American history, what does he count for?
2836But could it be shown that the Laird ships were not really for a French purchaser?
2836But is Lord Charnwood justified in that surprising characterization?
2836But what became of the labor that had previously supplied the demand for luxuries?
2836But would this be true to that principle of"popular sovereignty"which was the very essence of the Kansas- Nebraska Act?
2836Can arms be sent here?"
2836Did he doubt his ability to hold his own?
2836Did he merely put things by, ignoring tomorrow until tomorrow should arrive?
2836Did it dare pass over without protest the establishment of monarchy on American soil by foreign arms?
2836Did it show a certain slackness, a certain aimlessness, at the bottom of his nature?
2836Did the Union dare risk war with France?
2836Had it, in a way, some sort of analogy-- to compare homespun with things Olympian-- to the vein of frivolity in the great Caesar?
2836He was met by the curt question,"Do you bring peace or war?"
2836How was political evasion to brave it?
2836If Congress could not restrict slavery in the territories, how could its creature, a territorial legislature do so?
2836If the convention decided, however, not to submit the constitution, would not Congress have the right to accept it and admit Kansas as a Mate?
2836In Shakespeare''s phrase, it was--"Under which king, Bezonian?
2836Must I shoot a simple- minded soldier boy who deserts, while I must not touch a hair of a wily agitator who induces him to desert?
2836Or is there some conceivable new outlet for this opposition of energy on the part of the sections, some new mode of permanent adjustment?
2836Or, if he could not do that, would he be able to extricate the country-- Heaven alone knew how!--without a terrible ordeal?
2836Should Southerners trust any longer the man who had evolved from the principle of let-''em- alone to the principle of double- dealing?
2836The task imposed upon the volume resolves itself, at bottom, into just two questions: Why was there a war?
2836This was law, the expression of the highest tribunal of the Republic; what more was to be said?
2836Though the country at that time did not fully appreciate this aspect of the situation, who now can doubt that Lincoln did?
2836To his own question,"Where is the remedy?"
2836Was capital, like men, to become frankly sectional or would it remain impersonal, careless how nations rose or fell, so long as dividends continued?
2836Was he fatalistic?
2836Was he troubled?
2836Was his sad smile his refuge?
2836Was its commercial life sound?
2836Was organized capital deliberately exploiting slavery?
2836Was the commercial management of the North creditable to the Government and an honor to the people?
2836Was there then what we should call today a slave"interest"?
2836What about the Monroe Doctrine?
2836What became of the workmen?
2836What explains his vast success?
2836What then, was the public Lincoln?
2836What would the great dying Whig party leave behind it?
2836What, now, had Lincoln to say to the people of the North?
2836Where would Northern capital stand in the reorganization of parties?
2836Which course should they take?
2836Who paid the soldiers?
2836Who supplemented their meager pay and supported their families?
2836Who, in the last analysis, provided all these supplies?
2836Why did not millions of rounds of cartridges fall like manna out of the sky?
2836Why did not the crowds of volunteers become armies at a word of command?
2836Why was the Lincoln Government successful?
2836Why were the soldiers not armed?
2836Will you not embrace it?
2836Would he prevent war?
2836Would it be true to the principle that each locality should decide for itself between slavery and freedom?
2836Would their sporting sense of politics as a gigantic game carry him through successfully?
32043Are we going about it right now, General?
32043Will you hold this ford?
32043Will you hold this ford?
32043Will you hold this ford?
28571''Do you love me? 28571 ''O, do you think he will?''
28571Are we to understand that you wish to communicate with us?
28571Does it hurt, Patrick?
28571How could you fight against the old flag, General?
28571How happened it that General Floyd and General Pillow escaped, and left you?
28571How many soldiers have you on the field?
28571Then why do you display a white flag?
28571What be them for?
28571What do you want of me?
28571What do you want of me?
28571What terms do you grant me?
28571What will General Grant do with us? 28571 What will you do, gentlemen?"
28571When are you going to take the fort?
28571Where did you find the water?
28571Who is in command?
28571Why do n''t you come in?
28571Why do n''t you come out of your old fort?
28571Why so? 28571 Are the scouts to be believed? 28571 Beautiful and appropriate was that service:--The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?
28571Can the enemy outflank him, or get upon his rear?
28571Can you bear variegated butter, variable in taste and smell?
28571Can you eat dirt?
28571Can you eat grease in all its forms,--baked, boiled, fried, simmered?
28571Did he not promise, in his good Book, from which your mother taught you, that he would always hear the prayers of his children?
28571Do n''t you feel so, Frankie?''
28571Do n''t you remember this?
28571Do you think God heard me always?''
28571How large is his force?
28571How long could the half- frozen, exhausted, hungry men maintain their ground?
28571How many batteries has he?
28571How much cavalry?
28571How shall he arrange his corps?
28571How will it end?
28571Is not this some comfort to you?''
28571Mrs. S----, wo n''t you kiss me, too?
28571Should they make another attack, and cut their way out, or should they surrender?
28571The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?"
28571Their fathers purchased wives: why should they not sell their own children?
28571Were the Rebels there?
28571What are the probabilities?
28571What do the scouts report?
28571What if the Rebels should pounce upon his ammunition and supply- trains?
28571What if the Rebels, with their superior force, should march out from their intrenchments and make an attack?
28571What is a thing worth that costs nothing?
28571What is the position of the enemy?
28571What should be done?
28571Where the reinforcements?
28571Where the transports?
28571Where were the gunboats?
28571Who are they?
28571Who comes there?"
28571Will he put us in prison?"
28571Will the Queen sink with all her brave men on board?
28571Will they not fight bravely under such a commander?
28571Will you stay with me, and not leave me?''
28571Yet, if we compare the acts of the different armies in this war, how will yours bear inspection?
28571can this brigade be relied upon for a desperate charge?
28571how so?"
28571ought the troops to be massed in the centre, or shall he concentrate them on the wings?
28571shall he feel of the enemy with a division or two, or rush upon him like an avalanche?
28571will that division hold the enemy in check?
32017They are running, are they not?
32017( Doctor Taylor, what think you of this?)
32017A comrade paused over him and said--"Can I do anything for you?"
32017Does any comrade know anything about Lieutenant McKean''s burial?
32017How would prohibition and Methodism go?
32017Who shall decide when doctors disagree?
32017Why did not the dying man die?
32017Wo n''t I stay with you?"
32017Wo n''t I stay with you?"
32031But that it did its full duty in the obedience of every order, who will deny?
32031Comrade, did you ever swear?
32031Do you think you ever heard anybody swear?
32031Immediately upon seeing him standing in front of his shop, our boys began to sing out,"Vater hot, or vater cold?"
32031She then asked,"Is that in North Carolina?"
32031What regiment do you belong to?"
32031With what result?
2616Any chickens?
2616Any eggs?
2616Any flour or grain?
2616Are you a member of the other House?
2616Are you the Governor of a State?
2616Certainly not"Have you ever had a vote of thanks by name?
2616Do you think you could become so interested in my conversation as not to notice the door- keeper?
2616Have you any meat?
2616Is anybody in the house?
2616Is it locked up?
2616Is no one about who can get in?
2616Now, where is the proper place to break it?
2616Well,said he,"what do you want of me?"
2616Well,said he,"why do n''t you go into the gallery?"
2616What do you live on?
2616What is your badge?
2616Why?
26161, but are in the immediate neighborhood, on their plantations?
2616A few days afterward the husband again appealed to his commanding officer( Taylor), who exclaimed:"Have n''t you got a musket?
2616After shaking hands all round, the Governor said,"Coleman, what the devil is the matter here?"
2616At every meal the steward would come to me, and say,"Captain Sherman, will you bring your ladies to the table?"
2616Ca n''t you defend your own family?"
2616Can we whip the South?
2616General Halleck had a map on his table, with a large pencil in his hand, and asked,"where is the rebel line?"
2616Governor of a State?
2616Halleck''s telegram of last night says:"Who sent Smith''s division to Nashville?
2616Has any thing been heard from the troops ordered from Vicksburg?
2616He asked me,"Where?"
2616He dropped out of the retinue with an orderly, and after we had ridden a mile or so he overtook us, and I asked him,"What luck?"
2616He inquired,"Why not both?"
2616He said:"What is the use of your persevering?
2616He then asked in his quizzical way,"Are you a foreign embassador?"
2616He then said,"Have you any impudence?"
2616He turned to me and said,"Ca n''t you take your regiment up there?"
2616I answered, rather shortly,''How the devil do you know there is a masked battery?
2616I answered:"How can you go to New York?
2616I asked Deshler:"What does this mean?
2616I had on my undress uniform indicating my rank, and inquired of the sentinel,"Is General Fremont up?"
2616I said I had come to see him on business; and he added,"You do n''t suppose that he will see such as you?"
2616I touched it and examined one or two of the larger pieces, and asked,"Is it gold?"
2616If you ca n''t get over, how can the rebels get at you?''
2616In that event, would it not be possible for you to become a citizen of our State?
2616Major Childs inquired,"Where is Coacoochee?"
2616Major W. T. Sherman: Will you accept the chief clerkship of the War Department?
2616Mason said to me,"What is that?"
2616Member of Congress?"
2616Mr. Lincoln, who was still standing, said,"Threatened to shoot you?"
2616Of parties claiming foreign protection?
2616Renick said,"What do you want with General Fremont?"
2616Sherman said to me:"Admiral, how could you make such a remark to McClernand?
2616So that among the younger officers the query was very natural,"Who the devil is Governor of California?"
2616The Governor knocked at the door, and on inquiry from inside"Who''s there?"
2616We then returned to Benicia, and Wool''s first question was,"What luck?"
2616What can I do for you?"
2616When ground is owned by parties who have gone south, and have leased the ground to parties now in the city who own the improvements on the ground?
2616When houses are occupied and the owner has gone south, leaving an agent to collect rent for his benefit?
2616When houses are owned by loyal citizens, but are unoccupied?
2616When movable property is found in stores that are closed?
2616When parties owning houses have gone south, and the tenant has given his notes for the rent in advance?
2616When parties who occupy the house are creditors of the owner, who has gone south?
2616When the owner has gone south, and parties here hold liens on the property and are collecting the rents to satisfy their liens?
2616When the owner lives in town, and refuses to take the oath of allegiance?
2616When the tenant has expended several months''rent in repairs on the house?
2616Why do you not obey my orders to report strength and positions of your command?
2616Wo n''t you speak your mind freely on this question of slavery, that so agitates the land?
2616said Mr. Lincoln,"how are they getting along down there?"
2616where are they to come from?"
31192Can you be the man? 31192 Did either of you see any of the troops pass out of the lines during the night?"
31192Eh?
31192Ephraim,we said,"what is the matter?
31192My eye, Jim, but ai n''t that a stunning dress?
31192Well, sir, what will you have?
31192Well,he said,"I am almost starved;_ could_ you give me a little piece?"
31192Well,we said,"that is all right; but why do you say it?"
31192What style is that, Ben?
31192Where are you hit?
31192Who are those men?
31192_ Good!_ anybody else along?
31192Ai n''t it time to shoot?"
31192Among others, this: I heard a familiar voice sing out,"William Dame, my dear boy, what on earth are you doing here?"
31192As he drew near the guns he yelled out,"What on earth is the matter here?"
31192But some one might say,"How about this narrative that you are about to impose on a suffering public, who never did you any harm?
31192But what would they have?
31192Do n''t you''uns love sprouts?"
31192Have I struck you at last?"
31192Have n''t you heard about it?"
31192He said in a sharp tone,"What is the matter, why must n''t I go up this road?
31192He said,"My dear boy, where on earth did you get that meat?"
31192He went in the night, and woke up Sergeant Moncure and said,"Monkey, do n''t you think these works are very thin?"
31192His character has been subjected to that ordeal, and who can point to a spot upon it?
31192I wonder if it could have been the_ men_ behind them?
31192I wonder what could have given them such an exaggerated idea of the strength of those modest little works?
31192I wonder who will have to answer for the_ unnecessary waste of life_ and suffering in the"Army of the Potomac?"
31192It was an unspeakable humiliation for a_ cannoneer_ to be thus fingered by_ a driver_, but what could we do?
31192Ned came tumbling out, all in a heap, perfectly dazed, and wanting to know, in indignant tones,"What in the thunder we were doing that way_ for_?"
31192One day, soon after, the doctor met him and said with much friendly interest,"Well, Jim, how are you?"
31192Sadly we lamented--"What shall we do, in battle, and in camp, and on march, his form and face missing from among us?"
31192The Doctor turned on him and eagerly said,"Did I understand you to say that was a hot place?"
31192The Doctor turned to another, and another, with the same eager question,"Did_ you_ think that was a hot place?"
31192The Southern man said,"What is your name?"
31192The doctor looked at him, and asked him significantly,"Jim, do you feel_ all right_?"
31192The road seems quiet?"
31192The thing was_ bound_ to go right--"Wasn''t Lee there?"
31192Wake them up?
31192We asked what was the matter?
31192We knew we had to fight somewhere else, but where?
31192What could Warren do?
31192What could we do to save them?
31192What could you expect?
31192What do you do it for?"
31192What for?
31192What moved them?
31192What troops are these?"
31192What was in their minds?
31192What_ could_ that mean but, that peace was about to be made, and these cannon useless?"
31192Who can they be?"
31192he warmly said;"did you hear that dirty, ragged infantryman call me an old fellow?
31192is that so?"
31192said Ned, putting his hand up to his ear,"What did you say?"
31192what did you run for?"
31192what''s the danger?
32247About 8:30 a. m. Allatoona signalled Kenesaw,"Corse is here with one brigade; where is Sherman?"
32247How''s Corse?"
32247I answered that he was doing very well, and Sherman glanced over the report which I handed him, and inquired,"Pretty hot, was n''t it?"
32247Sherman replied, with an outburst of irritation,"How the devil can I tell?
32247The doctor inquired,"How do you feel?"
32650He laughingly said"No,"and then he asked, hearing the firing of the small- arms of the charging squadrons,"Are you going to have a battle here?
32650If so, how long will it last?"
32650What would have been the result had this charge been made?
33139Can either of these gentlemen answer?
33139If such be the case,_ why_ am I out of the service?
13789''What will England and France think of it?'' 13789 For what will you do,"he wrote Story,"if Charleston becomes loyal again[541]?"
13789Has it come to this? 13789 W."( Westbury?)
13789War on private property,said the Americans,"had been abolished on land; why should it not be abolished also on the sea?"
13789''What then''exclaimed Rhett,''can be your instructions?''
13789223_ note_[2], 224_ note_[3]; quoted, 304_ note_[1] Does the Bible sanction American Slavery?"
13789And if a State in power, why not give it prompt recognition?
13789And if so where lay British interest?
13789Armies if the Confederates have small bodies in Arms resisting the authority of the U.S. Congress?
13789But can Russell and the Government be criticized even as exercising an unwise( not unfriendly) haste?
13789But is this, after all, a matter for surprise?
13789But was this, in truth, the_ purpose_ of the emancipation proclamation?
13789Could European nations_ now_ act in such a way as to bring to an early end a war whose result in separation was inevitable?
13789Could this England of the people affect governmental policy and influence its action toward America?
13789Did Russell have this in mind when he promptly incorporated Mason''s figures in the papers presented to Parliament?
13789Did books dilating upon the expanding power of America reflect British public opinion, or did they create it?
13789Did not the Government intend to take measures to prevent the infringement of law in British ports?
13789Did she wish annexation to the United States, or did she prefer independence?
13789Did the British Government exhibit an unfriendly attitude toward the North by a"premature"Proclamation of Neutrality?
13789Did the British public hold these same opinions?
13789Did these steps indicate, as British opinion unquestionably held, an intention to rouse a servile insurrection?
13789Goldwin Smith, Regius Professor of Modern History at Oxford, replied in a pamphlet,"Does the Bible sanction American Slavery[958]?"
13789Had he been instructed to negotiate commercial treaties with European powers?
13789Had in fact a"pledge to wait"been given to Dallas; and was the Proclamation hasty and premature?
13789How did Russell, and Lyons, interpret that Bill and what complications did they foresee and fear?
13789How then, did the British people, of all classes, regard America before 1860, and in what manner did that regard affect the British Government?
13789How was the British Government to know that Davis would not bend every energy in sending out privateers, and Lincoln to establish a blockade?
13789How would the Government treat citizens who aided in equipping such privateers?
13789How, in short,_ could_ privateers make good an injury to blockade about to be done by the Rams?
13789If Britain respected the flag, and sheered off from search, how could she stop the trade?
13789If the North felt so earnestly about this, had it been wise to instruct Lyons to make an approach to the South?
13789If the prisoners were not given up, what, he asked, ought England then to do?
13789In comparison with this, what would be the gain to be derived from any collision with the powers of Europe[1377]?"
13789Is England, or the English Cabinet, afraid of the Northern States?
13789Is it conceivable that Seward desired a war with the whole maritime world?
13789Is it possible that Seward really wished to have a"strong,"yet not"too strong"statement from Lyons in order to combat the advocates of the"Ports"Bill?
13789Is not the real reason for the change to be found in British Governmental intentions known or suspected?
13789Might not the Northern States be induced to declare some one port Neutral, at which the trade could be carried on?
13789Of what use, then, the further expenditure of British sympathy or effort in a lost cause?
13789On March 4, 1858, Senator Hammond of South Carolina, asked in a speech,"What would happen if no cotton was furnished for three years?
13789Or was it the din of the church bells rather than the clamour of the orator, that offended him?
13789Russell was puzzled, writing"Que diable allait il faire dans cette galà © re[604]?"
13789Slavery, then, still remained an issue before the British public, but of what use was it to upbraid the South, if a new world State were in fact born?
13789Stoeckl commented to the Foreign Office:"What good will this do?"
13789The answer to this question must, we fear, be in the negative...."The_ Post_( thereby Palmerston?)
13789This being so did Lincoln seek to correct the foreign view by the emancipation proclamation?
13789This being the case, what did Russell know about the American crisis?
13789To what extent was this dictum justified?
13789Was its fate bound up with the result of that war?
13789Was the Confiscation Bill passed with that purpose in view and had Lincoln decided to carry it into effect?
13789Was the hurried departure of the vessel due to a warning received from official sources?
13789Was there not equal confusion at least, possibly equal ignorance, in America itself, certainly among the press and people of the Northern States?
13789What did Russell mean by this cautious statement?
13789What did the United States intend to do?
13789What further evidence was necessary of bad faith in a professed strict neutrality?
13789What would be the status of British citizens serving on Confederate privateers?
13789What, then, was the basic consideration in Russell''s mind leading to such a face- about on declared policy?
13789Where did Stuart get the news if not from Seward, since he also reported the latter''s success in postponing the proclamation?
13789Why should it not be accepted?
13789Why should they do anything for us, if we will do nothing for them?
13789Will the Abolitionists succeed in proclaiming freedom to the Slaves of all those who have resisted?
13789Will they learn from history?
13789Would it be wise to delay hostilities or to begin them at once?
13789Would it_ pay_, asked Bright, to break the blockade?
31232Are you going to desert your flag?
31232Besides what matter is it to you?
31232Dick,said the Doctor,"are you hurt?"
31232General Morgan,he said,"I hope you wo nt take my horse under the circumstances, although I did make this here little mistake?"
31232Have you any news of Morgan?
31232The h-- ll you say,responded a member of Co. A;"Do n''t you think Morgan''s men need praying for as well as Woolford''s?"
31232What in the d-- l is the use of a man going on to town when he lives out here?
31232What in the h-- ll are you jumping off the train for?
31232Why did you not have me roused sooner, Colonel?
31232Why,gasped Oliver;"ai n''t they Union?"
31232''What did you do it for?''
31232But for the neutrality- mongers to say this-- were they generously striving to fool themselves also?
31232Could General Johnson have defeated this army?
31232Did you ever see Morgan on horseback?
31232Federal Captain--"Who are you?"
31232How are Kirby Smith and Gracie?
31232How long would the raw troops at Louisville have withstood the attack of Bragg''s veterans when their turn came?
31232If General Bragg did intend to fight, why did he not concentrate his army and fight hard?
31232If these parties believe my conduct culpable, is it not their plain duty to prefer charges against me and bring me before a court martial?
31232Is every thing right?
31232Is it surprising, then, that no very holy horror of disunion should have prevailed in Kentucky?
31232It was necessary that this difficulty should be remedied; but how?
31232Morgan asked,''Would n''t you like to join us?''
31232Morgan immediately advanced a few feet in front of his command, touched his hat, and said,"Captain, what is the news in Nashville?"
31232No doubt, this seems to the unmilitary reader, only systematic robbery-- but is not_ that_ going on all the time, all over the world?
31232The plan appeared daring to rashness, but where were the forces to endanger such a march?
31232Then, what would have been the situation?
31232To which army do you think they belong?"
31232Was it much less"criminal"and"heretical"to do this than to"take sides with the seceding States?"
31232We had done our work, but where was Marshall or Stephenson?
31232What chance has a Southern writer against men who possess such resources?
31232Where was the boasted"loyalty"of the Union men of Kentucky when they indorsed the above given resolutions?
31232Why do they deprecate so much firing, and recommend the use of the bayonet?
31232Why then should they be forbidden in the criticism of campaigns and battles?
31232With a sweet approving smile, Morgan said,''Oh, have you killed many secesh?''
31232Woolums, operator, Midway_:''Will there be any danger in coming to Midway?
31232Would any other Colonel in the army have done the same for a"poor private"?
31232Would he, then, have been warranted in risking so much upon this throw?
31232Would they have encouraged their Government to draft them-- or would they have forced the Government to make peace?
31232You have a nobler weapon in your grasp-- will you dare to use it?"
33357Do n''t you see how they are firing at me?
33357And what shall I say of thee, my brother, my faithful friend?
18765And is that the way you think of the men of your own blood and race?
18765And this?
18765And this?
18765Be ye sellin''tablecloths?
18765Do n''t you think you''re rather hard on Pemberton? 18765 Do yours know it?"
18765H., do you think these can be the Federal soldiers?
18765Has the owner been consulted?
18765Have I not done so as soon as you rung? 18765 Heard the news?"
18765How can you speak so plainly before them?
18765How do I know who you are? 18765 I wonder,"said Annie,"when I shall ever have nicely starched clothes after these?
18765Is he here?
18765Is it true about the surrender?
18765Is that so, general?
18765Max, what interest has a man like you, without slaves, in a war for slavery? 18765 Mrs. L.,"she said, turning to me,"are you not going to send your husband?
18765So, Mike, you are really going to be a soldier?
18765That''s my kind, considerate wife,replied Mr. D."Why did n''t I think of that before?
18765Then where did you get them blue pantaloons?
18765Well, H.,I questioned, as we walked home after crossing the lake,"can you stand the pressure, or shall you be forced into volunteering?"
18765Well, is the war over?
18765What can this mean, H.? 18765 What do you mean?"
18765What is the news?
18765What room is that?
18765Where can he be found?
18765Who are you? 18765 Who got out last night?"
18765Who has done this?
18765Who lives here?
18765Why did n''t you open the door?
18765Why do you fear so?
18765Why, what matter? 18765 Will he furnish another house also?"
18765Will you fire on an unarmed man? 18765 Wish to search for arms?
18765You are right, madam; and besides, when our women are so willing to brave death and endure discomfort, how can we ever be conquered?
18765You felt with the South at first; who has changed you?
1876510 is gone?"
18765A white man, standing in the stern, with two negroes paddling, replied:"What did you fire on us for?
18765Are the populace turning out to greet the despised conquerors?"
18765As he was roused up, he asked:"Marse John, whar is you, and whar is you goin''?
18765Aunt Judy goes about in a dignified silence, too full for words, only asking two or three times,"W''at I done tole you fum de fust?"
18765Ca n''t I have yours, G.?
18765Could the gentleman tell me where I could get a canoe and some one to go with me?
18765H. said:"This is strangely quiet, Mr. L.""Ah, sir,"shaking his head gloomily,"I''m afraid(?)
18765Has n''t Pemberton acted like a fool?"
18765He responded,"Who are you?"
18765He responded,"Yes; and you are Captain Hines, are you not?"
18765How can they ever take a town that has such advantages for defense and protection as this?
18765I replied,"Yes; and what is your name?"
18765I wonder if it is to keep up their spirits?
18765It wraps me like a soft garment; how else can I express this peace?"
18765L.?"
18765Morgan ordered their capture, saying,"What will those Yankees do with the thousand men I have?"
18765Morgan, and Allen[ Ward?
18765One of Shackelford''s officers rode across the field and inquired,"What are you fools shooting at?"
18765Presently Mr. J. passed and called:"Are n''t you coming, Mr. L.?
18765Receiving a sharp negative in reply, he continued,"Well, can Tom get to stay all night?"
18765The general rose, saying,"Yes, indeed, Tom, I will; but where is the rum?"
18765The guard called,"Who goes there?"
18765The preacher''s text was,"Shall we have fellowship with the stool of iniquity which frameth mischief as a law?"
18765The question at once arose, What was the best course to pursue?
18765Want to see''em?
18765Were you not convinced?"
18765What are you doing here?"
18765What is it?"
18765What news?"
18765What other man could sustain such losses with so little embarrassment?"
18765What proof is there in this dark hour that they are not right?
18765What sustains you when nobody agrees with you?"
18765When I answered,"Well, what do you expect?
18765Why did he not go on?
18765Why did n''t you tell dem folks who you was?"
18765Why is it so easy for them and not for me to"ring out the old, ring in the new"?
18765Would he be kind enough to show me the way there, that I might get an early start and keep my engagement?
18765Would it be wise like the scorpion to sting ourselves to death?
18765_ April 28._--I never understood before the full force of those questions-- What shall we eat?
18765almost stuttering from surprise and anger,"are you aware I had the right to break down this door if you had n''t opened it?"
18765and wherewithal shall we be clothed?
18765inquired H."Are arrangements for surrender made?"
18765what shall we drink?
33625Says the colonel,"What are you going to do about it; are you going home now, or are you going to wait for the rest of the boys?"
28152''Have you passes?'' 28152 ''What are you doing with that gray jacket?''
28152''Where did you get it?'' 28152 ''Why do n''t you wear the Federal uniform?
28152''You have some papers about you, I suppose?'' 28152 A little rough shaking soon roused him up, and, rubbing his eyes, he asked,''What''s wanted?''
28152Are there any white folks there?
28152Do you know, gentlemen,said one who assumed leadership,"that just naturally to shoot these greasers ai n''t the best way?
28152Have you a knife, sir?
28152Have you ever seen a Yankee?
28152Have you friends or relatives here with whom you intend to stay?
28152How far is it to General Wheeler''s headquarters?
28152How far is it, my boy, by this road, to Drainside?
28152How sleep the brave who sink to rest, By all their country''s wishes blest? 28152 How unfortunate may you have been, sir?"
28152How''n de debbil can I tell dat in de dark, marser?
28152I am considerably interested in politics just now,said Mr. Barringer, and then he asked abruptly,"what is your opinion of John Brown?"
28152Now then, Willard,said Mr. Nichols,"I presume you understand the rules of this school?"
28152This is a free country; I_ am_ a Yankee-- all but the d----d-- and now what do you propose to do about it?
28152Was there a touch of irony in this remark which met in advance the grumblings and questionings of the future? 28152 Well,"said Glazier,"do we look like them?"
28152What are you shooting at me for?
28152What army?
28152What boots a weapon in a withered hand?
28152What boots a weapon in a withered hand?
28152What do you propose to do?
28152Who''s thar?
28152Why, Mr.----,said he,"did n''t you say that if I whispered to Myron Sprague again, I should go back and sit between Lizzie and Annie?"
28152Yes, sir, I did, and how dare you disobey me in this way?
28152Your_ opinion_, gentlemen?
28152_ Reporter._--Then which way did you proceed?
28152--"Who comes there?"
28152---"Who comes there?"
28152--Absentees from muster.--Disappointed hopes.--Savage treatment of prisoners.--Was the prison mined?
28152--Absentees from muster.--Disappointed hopes.--Savage treatment of prisoners.--Was the prison mined?
28152--Beyond Washington.--On guard.--Promotion.--Recruiting service.--The deserted home on Arlington Heights.--"How shall I behave in the coming battle?"
28152--Beyond Washington.--On guard.--Promotion.--Recruiting service.--The deserted home on Arlington Heights.--"How shall I behave in the coming battle?"
28152And what may I call your name?''
28152Another joined in with,"Say, Corporal, which of them nags can run fastest?"
28152Are the Yankees ashamed of it?''
28152As if his dignity was seriously offended by this demand, our hero answered this question by asking another:"Do you halt paroled prisoners here?"
28152Can any prisoner confined here ever forget the''Sisters of Charity?''
28152Captain Glazier thus graphically relates the interview:"''Then you are scouting for Confederate generals?''
28152Glazier immediately turned and inquired,"Do you know who I am?"
28152I asked,''Can you give this rebel a supper?''
28152I then asked,''Uncle, what road must_ this rebel_ take for Tinker Creek?''
28152I would have loved to see you all again; God saw best not; why should we mourn?
28152Is it strange that he is mastered in the battle and finally falls beneath the world''s pitiless tread?
28152Is it that"the memories which peaceful country scenes call up, are not of this world; nor of_ its_ thoughts and hopes?"
28152Lemon was not slow to answer in a corresponding tone,"I am serving my country, as every loyal man should do: what have_ you_ to say about it?"
28152My good fellow, ca n''t you do something for us?"
28152Of the dashing boys of the''Cavalry Corps,''And their daring deeds of glory?
28152One asked,''Who are you?''
28152Others had done so-- why not he?
28152So our hero replied, interrogatively:"Are you black or white in there?"
28152The man reluctantly opened the door, and the_ soi- disant_ Confederate demanded in an imperious tone,"How long is it since our army passed here?"
28152The sound of heavy cannonading reassured them as to the proximity of Federal troops; but, where was Augusta?
28152They eyed each other for a moment in silence, when presently the planter demanded in a blustering voice,"What are you doing here, in a blue uniform?"
28152They were closely engaged in this search, when"Who comes there?"
28152What could it mean?
28152What though he had only six thousand men with which to hold them in siege?
28152Who will say that a dread Nemesis has not overtaken the metropolis of the Palmetto State?
28152Why is it that such examples of tender feeling and unquestioning faith are seldom found in cities?
28152Will the oncoming generations who con the story of the life of John Stark listen to the preaching of such an example in vain?
28152Would he, or would he not, receive in the morning the certificate he sought?
28152Would the men go, or could they be induced to stay through another term of enlistment before seeking the respite they desired at their homes?
28152You are not going back to Albany to- night?"
28152added:"Whar in hell are you going, Yanks?"
28152said Carter, when he had recovered sufficiently to speak,"so you were going home, were you?"
11728Do you mean to say,said the planter,"that there is a State called Wisconsin that has sent thirty thousand men into your armies?"
11728General,said the planter,"what troops are those passing below?"
11728No, no,said Grant;"do you not see that I have come without even a sword?
11728What is the matter?
11728Who,said Seward,"is to control the national policy?"
11728Will that work pay for the book or only for the damage?
11728Wisconsin?
11728''How about Mr. Hewitt''s bill against the War Department?
11728''If,''said Lincoln,''I should write on that account an order to have it paid, do you suppose the Secretary of the Treasury would pay it?''
11728''What?''
11728And have they not, sir?
11728And how much would it avail you, if you could, by the use of John Brown, Helper''s Book, and the like, break up the Republican organization?
11728Can a man lose a right to himself if he himself has been stolen?"
11728Can we cast our votes with their view, and against our own?
11728Can you not cut it?"
11728Change positions with the enemy, and think you not he would break your communication with Richmond in twenty- four hours?...
11728Could Washington himself speak, would he cast the blame of that sectionalism upon us, who sustain his policy, or upon you who repudiate it?
11728Did Mr. Lincoln regard the address which he had just delivered to a small and critical audience as a success?
11728Did a faint shadow of the future rest upon his soul?
11728Did he feel the loneliness of the situation-- the want of his loyal Illinois adherents?
11728Did he have the faintest glimmer of the brilliant effect which was to follow?
11728Did his sinking heart infer that he was but a speck of humanity to which the great city would never again give a thought?
11728Did we not see a little of this in the last war?
11728Do you accept the challenge?
11728Do you believe that it is for the advantage of this country to put no restriction to the extension of slavery?"
11728Do you say that I must leave my old''Mammy''behind in South Carolina?"
11728Finally he asked,''What are you in Washington for?''
11728Have they not power to provide for the general defence and welfare?
11728Have you any memoranda of your investigations which you would approve of inserting?
11728He insisted from day to day in bringing Douglas back to this issue:"What do you, Douglas, propose to do about slavery in the territories?
11728Hewitt?''
11728How is this condition going to be changed by war even under the assumption that the war may be successful in securing your independence?
11728How many men are there in a regiment?"
11728If the majority is not to rule, who would be the judge of the issue or where is such judge to be found?"
11728In view of our moral, social, and political responsibilities, can we do this?
11728Is it not adherence to the old and tried, against the new and untried?
11728Is it your final judgment that there is to be no further reservation of free territory in this country?
11728Is there in all republics this inherent weakness?"
11728It simply leaves the inquiry:"_ What was the understanding those fathers had of the question mentioned_?"
11728It was argued by Patrick Henry in the Convention in Virginia, as follows:"May not Congress enact that every black man must fight?
11728It was in 1854 that Lincoln first propounded the famous question,"Can the nation endure half slave and half free?"
11728Lincoln?"
11728May they not pronounce all slaves free, and will they not be warranted by that power?
11728May they not think that these call for the abolition of slavery?
11728Now, can you, or not, be prevailed upon to pause and to consider whether this is quite just to us, or even to yourselves?
11728Should you not claim to be at least his equal in prowess, and act upon the claim?
11728The fact is substantially true; but does it prove the issue?
11728The question recurs, what will satisfy them?
11728These natural, and apparently adequate means all failing, what will convince them?
11728Was this the record of a man who should be made the head of a nation in troubled times?
11728We deny it; and what is your proof?
11728What are you talking about?"
11728What induced the Southampton insurrection, twenty- eight years ago, in which, at least, three times as many lives were lost as at Harper''s Ferry?
11728What is conservatism?
11728What is the frame of Government under which we live?
11728What is the question which, according to the text, those fathers understood"just as well, and even better than we do now"?
11728What were this man''s thoughts when he was left alone?
11728What would that other channel probably be?
11728Where is Wisconsin?"
11728Why can you not reach there before him, unless you admit that he is more than your equal on a march?
11728Why did the President put up so long with the vaingloriousness and ineffectiveness of McClellan?
11728Why does he have to wait for his money?''
11728Why should he have accepted even for one brief and unfortunate campaign the service of an incompetent like Pope?
11728Why was the army of the South permitted during the first two years of the War to have so large an advantage in skilled and enterprising leadership?
11728Why were not the real men like Sherman, Grant, Thomas, McPherson, Sheridan, and others brought more promptly into the important positions?
11728Will it satisfy them, if, in the future, we have nothing to do with invasions and insurrections?
11728Will they be satisfied if the Territories be unconditionally surrendered to them?
11728Would that be your behaviour in such an emergency?
11728Would the number of John Browns be lessened or enlarged by the operation?
11728Would you have that question reduced to its former proportions?
11728You can not escape this conclusion; and yet, are you willing to abide by it?
11728You produce your proof; and what is it?
11728[ 4] Who were our fathers that framed the Constitution?
11728said Lincoln,''you have not yet got what the nation owes you?
11728said the planter,"Wisconsin?
33962Who can tell the amount of suffering among the survivors?
34068What could be done in this situation?
32595No-- are they?
32595Am I not in the hands of a merciful God who has promised to take care of the widow and orphan?
32595Did you ever see one before?"
32595I thank God that they are freed, and yet what can I do with them?
32595Is this the way to make us love them and their Union?
32595Sadai[ Mrs. Burge''s nine- year- old daughter] said:"Oh, Mama, what shall we do?"
32595Shall I ever forget the deliverance?
32595Shall we be a nation or shall we be annihilated?...
32595They asked about our soldiers and, passing themselves off as Wheeler''s men, said:"Have you seen any of our men go by?"
32595What must it have been to the woman and the little girl living on these acres, in this very house?
32595What provision can I make?
32595What shall I do?
32595What will be our future?
32595Where go?
32595Who are you?"
32595Why must the innocent suffer with the guilty?
32595Will another year find us among carnage and bloodshed?
13163Are you a man- of- war?
13163Are you a vessel of war?
13163Captain, what vessel is this?
13163Have you any news, captain?
13163Ship ahoy!--what ship''s that?
13163What do you want me to heave to for?
13163What ship is this, captain?
13163What ship''s that?
13163Who are you?
13163Who are you?
13163''Have you any news of the Alabama?''
13163''What are you going to do with me when I get on board?''
13163); but they as yet only propose to do so, you taking half- interest at twenty- five dollars, and freight at eighteen dollars, payable at yours( port?
13163--''Have you any specie?''
13163Addressing the officer of the watch, Captain Semmes asked,"Is that gun ready for firing, sir?"
13163And how does the case supposed differ from the one in hand?
13163And if Snyder purchased the lumber of Davidson, why should Snyder not have made the advance for his principal instead of Davidson?
13163And if she does this, on what principle will she do it?
13163And what happens?
13163And when we reach the North Atlantic, will it still be war, or peace?
13163Are you English?
13163But if so, why was it not certificated by the government, as was done in the case of the Washington, captured and released on bond by this ship?
13163But what shall we say of its course since?
13163But whilst this fact is being determined, what is to be done with the property?
13163But why should Mr. Snyder be the party to make this affidavit?
13163Could this be the Alabama?
13163He came in quite boldly, and when within hailing distance of us, hailed us, and inquired--"What ship is that?"
13163How is Davidson interested in the price which this cargo will bring, if it belongs, as pretended, to the house in London?
13163I came within easy speaking range-- about seventy- five yards-- and upon asking"What steamer is that?"
13163I have tried to make an arrangement for it to go to you( on account of John Fair and Co., of London?
13163I said;''what the deuce can she want to hail us for?''
13163I tell you we are the United States ship Iroquois, and then you ask,''Are you English?
13163Instead of replying, you ask, perfectly savagely,''Who are you?''
13163Is it an act of love for the enemy to approach me with his boats for the purpose of reconnaissance, and especially during the night?
13163Miserably fed, hunted, eluding, preying, destroying-- is this a life that brave men would willingly have to be continuous?
13163Shall that name be tarnished by defeat?
13163Shall we ever reach that dear home which we left three years ago, and which we have yearned after so frequently since?
13163So I will try my luck around the Cape of Good Hope once more; then to the coast of Borneo; and thence perhaps to Barbadoes, for coal; and thence---?
13163So here, the article is innocent, and there is none in the market( accessible to me); why then may not the Government supply me?
13163The Alabama had"bought an elephant,"and now the question arose-- what was to be done with her valuable but most unwieldy acquisition?
13163The Government may not supply me with powder-- why?
13163What could this mean?
13163What ship''s that?"
13163What steamer is that?"
13163What was to be done?
13163What will it bring forth?
13163What, indeed, was to be feared?
13163When will the demon- like passions of the North be stilled?
13163Where can all the enemy''s cruisers be, that the important passages we have lately passed through are all left unguarded?
13163Who are you?"
13163Why did you not build Cape Town there?"
13163Why say that the goods belonged to"subjects of the King of Italy,"when the consignee was the real owner?
13163Why, then, did Wilson, Holt, Lane,& Co., decline to make the necessary oath to protect the cargo?
13163Will France drive a vessel of war of the Confederate States from one of her islands to a British island to procure coal?
13163Will it be battle, or shipwreck, or both, or neither?
13163With a very ill grace he descended into the cabin, I following, and I had just removed my cap when he roared out,"Who are you?
13163With the utmost suavity I inquired,"What ship is this?"
13163_ An insult to the Yankee flag-- Fine weather-- The Anna F. Schmidt--"What ship''s that?"
13163_ Cui bono_, the vessel being really English?
13163_ Wrecked!--A narrow escape-- Respect for neutral waters-- The Martha Wenzell-- At the Cape-- Dense fogs-- Heavy weather--"Are you a vessel of war?"
13163and if you would not deny me a mast, on what principle will you deny me coal, both articles being declared by your Government innoxious?
13163and why did he not state the fact that it so belonged, which would have protected it?
13163and, 2nd-- why Davidson should make the policy payable to himself?
13163or was it the Hydaspes, from India, or the Lady Jocelyn, from England?
13163rang out from the quarter- deck, as the two ships flew through the water, side by side:--"What ship''s that?"
34242Are they our troops?
34242Nov. 23, 9:30 p.m. Have just read rebel message from station on Mission Ridge, viz:"On whose left did Gen. S---- think the attack would be made?"
32268The question is often asked,''Who is responsible for this calamity?'' 32268 And have not these border counties a right to expect such protection? 32268 And reproaches_ for what_? 32268 But you ask:Was not General Averill near enough to have prevented the rebels from executing their nefarious design upon your town?
32268He followed her some distance, and leaning down, asked her earnestly,''Madam, ca n''t I save something for you?''
32268Is not the Government pledged, after it has taken their men and their money, to afford them protection, so far as it has ability?
32268Is your revenge sweet?''
32268Reproaches-- and from_ whom_ and_ whence_?
32268Said he:"Do you belong to this house?"
32268The Chaplain said to me,"Do you reside in this house?"
32268We have a home and can get another; but can you spare no homes for those poor, helpless people and their children?
32268Would it not invite to pillage and arson and murder?
32268and, if so, why did not General Couch inform him of the situation of affairs, and urge him forward?"
33718Do you remember Sergeant----, of Company----?
33718Yes, Colonel, I do; what about him?
33718In such a state of public feeling what could I, a young unmarried man, do consistent with a fair amount of self- respect but enlist?
33718Some papers and letters in my pockets supported the testimony of my host, and after considerable time spent in examining them, my brave(?)
34566And why?
34566On one occasion a Lieutenant of the company asked him, impatiently:"Donnolly, why_ do n''t_ you keep step?
34566Subsequently, our sentinel was asked:"Donnolly, what were you going to do?"
33280As we were riding through this division, the men called out,"What regiment is that?"
33280He looked so badly that I asked him what the matter was, when he replied,"Have n''t you heard the news?"
33280He then said,"Well, what is it?"
33280I had been polite in my remarks to her when she turned upon me and asked,"Are n''t you from New Orleans?"
33280Inquiring,"Whom have you got there?"
33280Looking up, General Grant quietly asked,"I assume you have questioned him?"
33280On admitting it, he said,"Do you know the chapter General Washington always used to read before he went into a fight?"
33280This officer leaned forward and said in an earnest manner,"Whose cavalry is this?"
33280When she had said this several times an Irishman of my company remarked,"And who the divil is he anyhow?"
33280You see their line across this clearing?"
34216Do you know him?
34216As soon as I came close to him and he saw me he said:"Where is the Fourth?"
34216General Taylor neither spoke nor understood French, and he turned to me and said:"Who the devil is this, and what is he talking about?"
34216He said,"How do you know it is?"
34216He then said:"Did you notice that I did not have my sword when I went to General McClellan''s headquarters?"
34216I said to him:"How is it with you, Penn?"
34216Where''s my horse?"
34889He came in due time, and asked if he might smoke my big pipe?
34889One of our smart Alicks sung out to him,"I say, Johnny Reb., why do n''t you wear better clothes?"
34889Ten thousand questions were asked of those who had been wounded,"how goes the battle?"
34889The people of Harrisburg asked:"has Michigan sent another Regiment equipped?"
31895Do you live in Greenville?
31895Have you got any showance?
31895How is it, then, that this young man wears the Confederate uniform?
31895Howde massa?
31895Is you a Yankee, massa?
31895Uncle, did you ever see a Yankee?
31895Well, who said I was n''t?
31895Well,said I,"then you go past Free Mitchell''s, do n''t you?"
31895Where are you going?
31895Will you ever mind them fellows again?
31895After a while, looking around to assure himself that no Confederate officer was near, he asked in a low tone,"what d''ye ask for it?"
31895Again, thanks to DOCTOR BRETS''generosity(?)
31895And, shall I confess it, in a fit of absent- mindedness(?)
31895As he would call upon us to fall in again for count, some one would say,"well Sergeant what was the matter that time?
31895Dick Hancock the Sergeant, asked, to what command do you belong?
31895Got any new issue to spare?
31895Had they come to relieve those who had thus far been our guards, and with whom we had became somewhat familiar?
31895Had they come to take us to Richmond to be exchanged?
31895Have n''t you heard that Richmond has fallen?
31895He saluted me with,"hello Cooper, you here and sober?
31895He was about handing the gun to me, when the Lieutenant stopped him by saying:"You d-- d fool, do you know what you are carrying that gun for?
31895It made a fellow''s blood boil to witness and suffer such indignities; but what could we do under such circumstances?
31895Or had they been merely sent here, to more securely guard against any attempted outbreak?
31895Soon we were all comfortably(?)
31895The first question they would ask upon meeting an acquaintance would be,"Do you hear anything about exchange?"
31895The question would then be asked,"Do you promise to support the Constitution of the United States?"
31895To the question,"well boy, do you want to be made a Yankee?"
31895Was that what you was looking for Sergeant?
31895Was there too many of us or not enough?
31895What kind of an arithmetic did you study when you went to school?
31895What man in the North could look on complacently and see such a cruel punishment inflicted?
31895When they came along I saluted the Captain and asked,"Whar youans going, Captain?"
31895Where are you going?
31895Who comes there?"
31895You load up Saturday night and shoot all the week, do n''t you?"
31895You''ens Yanks think you are d-- d cute, do n''t you?
31895on the skirmish line, what luck?"
31895why, Frank how much do you think this breakfast cost?"
35088A mile away, just emerging from the cover of the forest, appeared the forms of a number of men; were they friends or enemies?
35088How many of the readers of this book will make it real to themselves what gore is?
15829But, who are the birds for?
15829Can he be removed if I promise to fulfil all these conditions?
15829Chatterbox,said he,"how would you like to ride home with me and stay awhile, until your mother gets better?
15829Did any one else go?
15829Hey, old nigger, what''s in that great bundle? 15829 It is a dipping- stick; do n''t you chaw snuff?"
15829Mornin'', little missy,said she, pleasantly;"is you gwine ter sleep all day?"
15829No? 15829 Sure, what wad a lady be wantin''in a place like this?"
15829THE QUICK OR THE DEAD?
15829Well, did she eat breakfast with you?
15829What is your name, and how did you get here?
15829What the devil is all this fuss about? 15829 Where is Sophy?
15829Who is on the front?
15829Who stole it?
15829Why, Peter,cried I,"you are crazy:_ who_ called me names, and what did they call me?"
15829Why, Winnie,said Mrs. Grey,"what does this mean?
15829Why, comrade,I replied,"I thought you would like to have a lady to nurse you?"
15829Why, father,said I,"whoever heard of paying ten dollars for needles and thread?"
15829Wot you makin''all dis miration''bout? 15829 You is too inquisity;''sides, who you call nigga''?
15829You wo n''t hurt my mamma? 15829 Amazed, I questioned why? 15829 An''how dem dar gwine to do''out ole Winnie?
15829And what of the unfaltering_ followers_, whose valor supported their brave leaders and helped to_ create_ many a splendid record?
15829At once Maum Winnie''s voice was heard inquiring,--"Who dat?"
15829But why is he not fired upon?
15829Can imagination conceive a situation more pitiable?
15829Did one thirst?
15829Did you ever hear of such badness?"
15829Do you wonder, then, that I love to call those comrades of mine"my boys"?
15829Does it seem strange to you that I call these bronzed and bearded men"my_ boys_?"
15829Does it seem to you that this was exceptional, dear reader?
15829Dr. Beatty was worried about the sick, but under the circumstances what could he do?
15829Faith, an''if_ ye''re_ a sinner, where wad the saints be?"
15829He set down the cup, looked at me with queer, half- shut eyes, then remarked,"Yer ga- assin''now, ai n''t ye?"
15829His thought was,"Can that color- bearer have repeated his blow, or am I struck by a ball, which has deadened the sense of feeling?"
15829How can I convey to you the impressions there received?
15829How can ye sing, ye little birds, and I so weary, fu''o''care?"
15829I did not understand, so he explained, with a comic leer at the others,--"Sure, have n''t I always the''_ lone hand_''on thim?"
15829I had but to mention her name to ask,"Do you know Mrs. Caldwell, of the''Refuge?''"
15829I said to him,"Now, what would_ you_ like?"
15829I said,"Doctor, in tent No.---- there is a very sick man; can we look at the books and learn what diagnosis his surgeon has made?"
15829I tould him,''And what have_ you_ to say to what you done to_ our_ poor fellows?''
15829Immediately Maum Winnie would appear, the very picture of dignified astonishment,--"Now, Miss Nelly,_ ai n''t_ you''shame''?
15829In reply to his question,"was he badly hurt?"
15829Instead of taking it out of his vest- pocket, father opened his pocket- book and said,--"Did you say you wanted_ ten dollars_ or ten_ cents_, my boy?"
15829Little girl, where is your mamma?
15829My dear young friends, have you ever heard of a disease called"nostalgia?"
15829Nelly at once began,--"Oh, Maum Winnie, who are those birds for?
15829Oh, lady,_ will_ they do my daddy like this?"
15829Oh, these must be run off and saved,--but how?
15829Oh, was it not hard to believe that"whatever is is right?"
15829Oh,_ whar_ he?
15829One of these fellows then said,"Well, I''m a Kentuckian too, what have you got to say about me?"
15829Or who can listen unmoved to the music of the cannon which so often woke the morning echoes upon the bloodiest battle- field of the war?
15829Shall I describe to you this room-- or my suite of rooms?
15829She had to ride all the way on a wagon drawn by a steer( oh, mothers, can you not imagine the agony which attended that lengthened journey?
15829Suddenly,--"Jim, can this be you?"
15829Their stricken hearts cried out to all the beautiful things of nature,--"How can ye bloom so fresh and fair?
15829There was a great deal of"geeing"and"hawing"and fuss, and then, instead of getting down, the farmer called out,--"Say, are you all asleep?"
15829They asked me,''What have you in that bag?''
15829They seemed to her so precious, so sacred, that they must have sepulchre; but how should she accomplish this end?
15829Upon the sideboard stood a tray which had contained breakfast for somebody; Nelly wondered who, and suddenly asked,--"Is mamma sick?"
15829Wat I want to be free for?
15829Well, what is it?"
15829Whar dat chile cum from dis time o''nite?"
15829What are you in the kitchen cooking for?"
15829What is all this about your feather- bed?"
15829What should I do now?
15829What you got in there, anyhow?"
15829When I would ask,"Are you sorry, Beau?"
15829Where did you get this money, and why do you give it to me?"
15829Where is the cook?
15829Who can wonder that their brave defenders were the idols of a grateful people?
15829Who does not remember the sorrow of a nation at his death?
15829Who gwine keer''bout me?
15829Will you lead me to her?"
15829You ar''n''t going to burn up Maum Winnie''s house?"
15829_ Could_ it be true?
15829better this morning?
15829cried the negro,"did n''t I tole you dat?
15829great God, is this Dave?"
15829were_ these_ the brave men who had made forever glorious the name of Shiloh?
15829what are you going to do with that mustard- plaster?
15829what has happened to her?"
15829why must it be that grief and glory always go hand in hand?
33179Any other name?
33179How far is it to Germania Ford?
33179I should go for his gloves?
33179Was he killed in the battle?
33179Were you there during the fight?
33179What do the people down here say this war is about?
33179What should you go for, Gus?
33179What should you go for, Tom?
33179Where was your husband?
33179Where were you hit?
33179Who lives in that house we have just passed?
33179Will you lend me my Nigger, Colonel?
33179An officer stuck his head out of a nearby tent and shouted,"Why did n''t you bring in the whole regiment while you were about it?"
33179As they were passing his place one time, he said to his wife in the morning as they began to pass,"Wife, shall we do something for these men?
33179But it afforded us some amusement and what did we care for mules''ears or men''s ears, for that matter?
33179But what could one man do with one little revolver, when faced by two or three hundred veterans of many a bloody military and whiskey campaign?
33179Finally, she said in a rather saucy way,"Why do n''t you play it yourself?"
33179He looked at his gloves for an instant, and with an oath demanded"What is that?"
33179How different the aspect two months later as we were about to leave there?
33179My shoes were loaded with Virginia mud; could I jump it?
33179Were n''t we indignant one noon?
33179What a railroad that was?
33179What could we do?
33179What you- all come down here for-- to invade our country and run away with our niggers?
33179When I reached headquarters the colonel came out of his tent and came up to me and said,"What have you been up to, Mad?"
21853Ai n''t she an angel?
21853And such an one art thou? 21853 But who caused your discharge?"
21853Can you bear to go without food a week?
21853Do you want to see Florence Nightingale?
21853How could you,said a friend to her subsequently,"how could you expose your life and health to that deadly heat?"
21853Is it not wrong,a friend once asked,"that you should do so much, while so many are doing nothing?"
21853Mrs. Bickerdyke was greeted on the street by a soldier on horseback;''Mother,''said he,''is that you? 21853 Oh, it will do lots of good, wo n''t it?"
21853Shall I read to you?
21853Shall I write to any of your friends?
21853Well,said she, with thrilling earnestness,"what if I do?
21853What is this for?
21853Where did you get it?
21853Why then,asked the manager,"do you feel so deep an interest in this work?"
21853''And why did n''t you go before?''
21853''And why have n''t you seen a rebel?''
21853''Are you willing to die?''
21853''But,''said I,''did you not feel''twas cruel to leave you to suffer so long?''
21853''But,''said he,''what do you suppose my wife will say, at ten thousand ladies coming after me in that style?''
21853''Ca n''t I help you?''
21853''Did you know that Sherman was in Dalton?''
21853''Did you suffer much?''
21853''Do they think so much of us as that?
21853''Do you know this soldier?''
21853''Do you treat rebels_ so_?''
21853''Have you friends in the army, madam?''
21853''How did it happen that you were left so long?''
21853''Is that so?''
21853''Now do n''t you think she is crazy, to spend all her time in such ways?''
21853''Stop, my little man,''said Mr. Lincoln, laying his hand on his shoulder,''are n''t you going to speak to me?''
21853''Well, this bed is most_ too_ soft; I do n''t know as I shall sleep, for thinking of it,''''What have you got there?''
21853''Were you frightened when the shells began flying?''
21853''What could we do without them?''
21853''What could we do without these stores?''
21853''What does he say?''
21853''What does this mean?''
21853''Why could he not have lived until I came?
21853''Would he like a little rice soup?''
21853''Would you like a handkerchief?''
21853And folding her hands before her, she begged, in her charmingly modest way,"Please tell me something that you''ve seen in the hospitals?"
21853As she pursued her solitary way came there no foreshadowing of what was to be?
21853At the close, one burst out,''Why, ma''am, where did you come from?
21853But she was alone and unknown, and how could she get the means and the permission to go?
21853But the captain was in earnest; when was he anything else?
21853But would it not be better for the world, and for us all, if we were each of us a little crazier in the same direction?"
21853By him she was accused(?)
21853Could such friendship fail to win the hearts of those to whom this inestimable woman gave the cheerful service of her life''s best days?
21853Did you drop from heaven into these rifle- pits?
21853Do n''t you remember me?
21853Do we not call this happiness?
21853Do you wonder, therefore, that I forgot your letters?"
21853He spoke first, and said,''Will you take my message to her?''
21853Hoge''s talk to the men--"Promise me you''ll visit my regiment to- morrow"--The flag of the Board of Trade Regiment--"How about the blood?"
21853How could such a lady as you are come down here, to take care of us poor, sick, dirty boys?"
21853How encourage these devoted sewing- circles and aid- societies?
21853How many hundred or thousand dollars would you consider an equivalent for either?
21853How much more, then, he who has given his life?
21853I do n''t suppose it will buy much for them, will it?''"
21853I said''Is this young man a relative of yours?''
21853Mrs.---- said;''why did n''t you take your gun and help to drive them out of your town?''
21853One man came over to our tent next day, to say,''Missus, was it you who sent me that present?
21853Or, if she failed to maintain a character proof against even inuendoes, would she not break the bridge over which any successor would have to pass?
21853Rather shall we not thank him, by refusing ever again to be idle spectators when he has work to be done for any form of suffering humanity?
21853Said I to the smiling boy, some absent mother''s pride,''How long did you lie on the field after being shot?''
21853Shall men come here by tens of thousands and fight, and suffer, and die, and shall not some women be willing to die to sustain and succor them?"
21853Shall we ever sufficiently thank him for this crowning happiness?
21853She denounced him at once in the strongest terms, and as he came in, and with an attempt at jollity inquired,"Hoity- toity, what''s the matter?"
21853She doubtless had enemies( as who has not)?
21853Suppose we dispense with our dessert during the war?"
21853That she was an ardent patriot, in more than words, who can doubt?
21853The Woman''s Central, therefore, published a pamphlet written by Mr. George T. Strong, entitled:"How can we best help our Camps and Hospitals?"
21853The idea was received with favor, and on the 7th of November an editorial appeared in the_ Cincinnati Gazette_, entitled"Who speaks for Cincinnati?"
21853The only question Miss Dix asked, was,"Are you ready to work?"
21853Was there no warning?
21853What are we about to learn?
21853What was to be done?
21853What was to be done?
21853What_ could_ they do?
21853Where are they?
21853Which do you prefer-- that I should give money, or buy material and manufacture it into garments?''"
21853Who of you would contribute a leg, an arm, or an eye, instead of what you have done?
21853Why, boys, we can fight another year on that, ca n''t we?''
21853Why?''
21853_ Is_ this Sunday?
21853and how are they?
21853how could they help it?
21853no token of the quick release?
21853no whisper of the hastening summons?
21853or''When will my toast come?''
21853this is the pleasantest way to meet, is n''t it?
34895Have you got any federal greenbacks?
34895Let''s see, Gordon''s old regiment?
34895What regiment?
34895What will you sell me one of those canteens for?
34895What, you do n''t know the man you identified yesterday?
34895And shall all this have been in vain?
34895But where the end may be, this year or twenty hence,_ quien sabe_?
34895Finally he said,"Will you be ready to start before light to- morrow?"
34895Have you got a gold dollar?"
34895How are you?"
34895Shortly before we arrived, at about 1 A.M., an officer came through the car, caught sight of my shoulder- straps, stopped:"You are a captain?"
34895What is happening behind the impenetrable curtain between us and the North?
34895When the tide of war shall turn, as turn it will, what will be done with us?
34895where shall I be,--here or in the Libby?
33035All right, Kunnel,said the captain;"how much do you want?"
33035But if he had been?
33035But suppose he asks for money or is suspicious?
33035Cab or carriage, gents?
33035Certainly; will you ride or walk?
33035Do you think it possible to do this?
33035Have a cab?
33035How are things up North? 33035 How can I tell?
33035How can I tell?
33035To Camp Ford,replied Armstrong;"will you be kind enough to show us the way?"
33035What brigade?
33035What division?
33035What will you tell him, Swiggett?
33035What would you have said, Swiggett, if he had named a price?
33035When he does or is I will meet him; but, boys, how on earth can you tell what to do or say till you know what you have to overcome? 33035 Ca n''t you see that the man has his hands full? 33035 Ca n''t you stay awhile?
33035Can you not send us under guard to look for them?"
33035Did you ever try to find a place to rest when everything upon which you could possibly sit or lie was soaking wet?
33035Did you ever try to sleep in a standing posture, or to rest in like position for any length of time?
33035Got any mail?
33035Hev us ter kerry thim ter hev''em handy loike?"
33035How can a fellow get across this infernal river?"
33035How did you leave the folks?
33035How is it?"
33035We knew that we were lost and had come a long distance since taking the right(?)
29313''How many have you got?'' 29313 ''What regiment do you belong to?''
29313''You''ve heard about the orders against marauding, eh?'' 29313 How are you, mud?"
29313How d''ye like Virginny woods, Yank?
29313How far, General?
29313How many men have you?
29313Say, Yank, if I send you over a boat- load of''backy,''will ye send her back filled with coffee?
29313What will you do that for? 29313 Where is your letter, sir?"
29313Why do n''t you''uns come over?
29313Young man,said he, with a supercilious air,"what might your business be?"
29313Your knowledge of the duties of officer of the day is somewhat limited?
29313After forty years, what would I take for that association with all its dangers and hardships?
29313Amidst all these joyous reunions, were there no shadows?
29313And the others?
29313And then they sang to us:"Ai n''t ye mighty glad to get out the wilderness?"
29313Being apparently reassured by my reply, he continued in a less peremptory tone,"Who ordered that line?
29313But did it stir their blood?
29313Can we who know of it only as we read appreciate such a home- coming?
29313Could order ever be gotten out of it?
29313Could we do it and keep up our end?
29313Did our"Ma''s know we were out?"
29313Did that require nerve?
29313Do n''t you see yonder line of rebels is flanking you?"
29313Does Providence graciously look out for the tenderfoot?
29313Eggs, gelatin, or other notions of civilization, for settling, were studiously(?)
29313Had the left grand division vigorously performed its part in the earlier movement, can any one doubt the result?
29313Have n''t you had enough of the reveille here?"
29313Here is Colonel Wilson''s account of the colloquy that ensued:"Who are you, sir?
29313How can words describe the scene?
29313How did I know so much about them?
29313How did we ordinarily get our laundrying done?
29313How does one feel under such conditions?
29313How far out is it?"
29313How shall I describe the experiences of that night''s tramp?
29313How was our coffee made?
29313How, then, did I come in possession of its main features, so as to note them in my diary at the time?
29313I asked,"How was that?"
29313If I was"hot,"what shall be said of him?
29313If a reply was not forthcoming, a nagging ejaculation, calculated to provoke, would follow, such as,"What''s the matter, Yank, are ye deaf?"
29313Is the theory of a misunderstanding of orders tenable?
29313Need I say that, joyous as was our home- going, there was more than a pang at the bottom of our hearts as we severed those heroic associations?
29313Now how was the plan carried out?
29313Now, as I close this narrative, shall I speak of the gala day of our home- coming?
29313Now, why did the left grand division fail to make the attack as ordered?
29313Now, why this period of inactivity whilst Sedgwick was being punished?
29313Only a fifth of them left?
29313Otherwise, why did he attack at all?
29313Personal fear?
29313Pretty expensive fuel?
29313Ran up against man, who grabbed me by the collar, and demanded''what are you doing here?''
29313See him behind that bush?"
29313Seeing me, he stopped his horse and exclaimed,"Adjutant, where is my division?
29313Should we continue the advance or retire and get further orders?
29313The carol of birds in the midst of the blackest thunder- storm?
29313The colonel called out,"What''s the matter with the bass drum?"
29313The officer had by that time recovered himself sufficiently to ejaculate,"Who the h----l is that-- general?"
29313The rebels were evidently interested observers of this mud march, for their pickets taunted ours with such questions as"How d''ye like Virginia mud?"
29313To what may it be likened?
29313Was it ever so dark, and did it ever rain harder?
29313Was the new movement, then, to be in that direction?
29313Was this little race, so short and gloriously won, prophetic of his life''s brief course?
29313We marched very leisurely, making during the first four days only about twenty- five miles, to a village bearing the serious(?)
29313Were these home treasures lost?
29313Were you getting it ready to send to the hospital?
29313What are you doing here?"
29313What could I do?
29313What did you come down here for?
29313What for these pictures and memories?
29313What in h----l do you want?"
29313What is your business?
29313What should I do?
29313What were my sensations when hit?
29313What were we going to do?
29313What''s wanted?"
29313Where do you belong?
29313Where was our David?
29313Where were we going?
29313Who comes there?"
29313Who''s there?
29313Why do n''t we go forward?"
29313Why fence rails or timbers were not placed under them as is usual?
29313Why have n''t you sent us orders?
29313Why this interregnum in the command?
29313Will the time ever come when"the bitter shall not be mingled with the sweet"and tears of sorrow shall not drown the cup of gladness?
29313You did n''t think you could whip us men of the South, did you?"
29313a picnic?
29313etc., etc., at the same time accepting(?)
29313or a similar ejaculation, and then,"General Couch, why do you not assume command and order us forward?
29313xxi., page 275:"I would also state that some cowardly members of a regiment unknown(?)
35578My reply is,"I do; but what are fifteen dollars a month toward supporting a man and wife?"
21417General John M. Schofield, San Francisco, California:Will you accept the superintendency of the military academy at West Point?
21417November 24, 1864, 1:39 P. M.Do you think it important to hold Columbia?
21417After reading it he said, in nearly, if not exactly, the following words:"Schofield, do you know Hood?
21417After stating what he had done"in the last ten days"to prepare for his march, he said:"Then the question presents itself what shall be done?
21417Am I authorized in any manner, directly or indirectly, to pledge such support and protection?
21417And by what means was this demonstration to be made?
21417And that problem had already been solved, in all respects save one, namely, how to get out of Congress the necessary money to do the work?
21417But could Sherman, with his more exact knowledge of what he actually had done, have felt the same confidence?
21417But now the serious question is, how to get out of the scrape?
21417But why involve the people of France and the people of the United States in this punishment?
21417But why those subsequent operations, or a change of base with a view to any such ulterior purpose?
21417Can a legislator be excused because he knows nothing of the art and science of war?
21417Can not this be brought about?
21417Can sovereign_ millions_ do it wisely without any education whatever?
21417Can this highest duty of the citizen be intelligently performed without military education?
21417Can you not cover the pontoon bridge with a bridge- head, and hold it so as to preserve the bridge for crossing whenever we get ready to advance?
21417DID IT INVOLVE WAR OR STATESMANSHIP?
21417DID IT INVOLVE WAR OR STATESMANSHIP?
21417Did not the South throw away a great moral advantage when it waged aggressive war upon the North?
21417Do you desire me to hold on here until compelled to fall back?"
21417Do you mean that one brigade in the intrenchments at Pulaski could hold out for a week?
21417Do you not think the infantry at the distant crossings below here should now be withdrawn and cavalry substituted?
21417Do you think you can hold Hood at Franklin for three days longer?
21417Does it not look as if Hood was going to attempt the invasion of middle Tennessee?
21417Has the government any additional instructions?
21417How are you off at home?"
21417How could a soldier resist the impulse to"do or die"at the head of that army?
21417I heard him ask in a loud voice:"Where is the 128th Indiana?"
21417I replied,"Indeed?
21417If the Senate is not satisfied as to my past services, why not wait until they can know more?
21417In this connection, what significance is to be attached to the dates of events in Tennessee, especially the battles of Franklin and Nashville?
21417In view of that knowledge and of the results of his own previous operations against Hood, could he have expected any such result?
21417Is he with you?"
21417Is it not taught in the Constitution of the United States?
21417Is it possible Sherman thought he could not catch Hood with three or four armies?
21417Is not the real value of money, like that of everything else, regulated by the general law of supply and demand throughout the world?
21417Is there no convenience for unloading beyond Thompson''s Station?
21417Mr. Lincoln replied in his characteristic way:"Why, Schofield, that cuts the knot, do n''t it?
21417Must not commercial intercourse among all the countries of the world necessarily regulate all this, in spite of the decrees of government?
21417On the 26th he asked me which I would prefer to be,"an officer of the army or a farmer in Kentucky?"
21417Or of a man who would wait until he had realized the expected profit on a commercial venture before insuring the goods?
21417Or what, if Hood had succeeded in his projected invasion of Kentucky-- an event much less improbable than many that have actually occurred in war?
21417Ought not Sherman as well as Hood to have known his antagonist better than such a supposition would imply?
21417Shall I give the order for troops to fire on mob obstructing trains?
21417Shall they be withdrawn from Banks, or Grant, or Steele, or Rosecrans?
21417Should the enrolled militia then have been broken up, and General Herron kept from Grant to police Missouri?
21417The Blair turned to me and said:"Well, what do you think of him?"
21417The question was"What next?"
21417The same day, November 28, at 4 P. M., I telegraphed:"If Hood advances on the Lewisburg and Franklin pike, where do you propose to fight him?
21417To avoid a transfer of the battlefield from Georgia to Alabama or Mississippi, was it wise to run the risk of transferring it to Kentucky or Ohio?
21417Volunteer:"And how many rebs do you think you killed?"
21417Volunteer:"How many shots did_ you_ fire?"
21417Was it simply to effect a change of base, or was it for well- defined ulterior purposes?
21417Was there any more reason for the one supposition than the other?
21417Was this all wrong?
21417What offset to this would have been the capture of Savannah as a"Christmas gift"to the nation?
21417What other great department of the government could recognize the standing army as belonging to it, if not the Department of War?
21417What reason had he to conclude that it would be impossible to do so later?
21417What sort of a fellow is he?"
21417What was Sherman''s plan when he started for Savannah?
21417What was he to operate against after he got there?
21417What would be thought of a general of the army who tried to shield himself from censure or punishment behind his ignorance of the law?
21417When did Sherman mature his plan to march to Virginia, and when did that plan first dawn upon Sherman''s mind?
21417Whence shall they come?
21417Where did so many of the people of the United States learn the heretical doctrine of fiat money?
21417Where is Stanley?
21417Where is the 128th Indiana?"
21417Who can ever forget that touching scene by the grave in St. Louis?
21417Why change his base to Savannah?
21417Why make enemies of our ancient friends?
21417Why provide educated and trained experts for all subordinate positions, and none for the head or chief, vastly the most important of all?
21417Why run any further risk?
21417Why was not this done with a much larger force under Sherman at Atlanta?
21417Why, it may be asked, this strange departure from the recognized rule of organization in all governmental and business affairs?
21417Would it not be wise for Congress to say at once, We reject, once and for all, proscriptive constitutions?
14897Are n''t you going in town to see him, Mamma?
14897Are you much hurt?
14897But how am I to know him? 14897 But why hide your face in my lap, daughter?"
14897But why was I not written to? 14897 Can you manage it for me, Uncle Squire?"
14897Did he never write to mamma?
14897Did you strike Polly, daughter?
14897Do n''t it tire you Mam''Sarah?
14897Do n''t you know me, Mars Robert? 14897 Do?"
14897Have they hurt you, Rosy, darlint?
14897Have you come for your gun?
14897Have you got a mother?
14897Have you heard the news?
14897I do n''t understand,he said;"what does it all mean?"
14897I must tell her first, little daughter; and if she forgives me, will not you?
14897If mamma ca n''t leave Aunt Betsy, do n''t you reckon she will let me go with you in town to see him, Uncle Squire?
14897If ye are not what ye seem to be, what are ye?
14897Is he?
14897Is she like this?
14897Is that thrue?
14897Iz dat de hen dat''s been so bobstreperous, you bin tellen''me erbout, Lil Missus?

14897May I ask,said the lady hesitatingly,"if two soldiers dressed in Federal uniform have passed here this morning; and how long since?
14897May I come in, dear Mamma?
14897May I go, Mamma?
14897O, Uncle Squire,cried Roberta,"wo n''t they give the calico dress back to him?
14897O, Uncle Squire,cried the delighted child,"wo n''t mamma go right straight in town and take me?"
14897O, Uncle Squire,she cried,"did I tell you how I got the best of Jemimy at last?"
14897O, what duz make fo''ks git so mad with ech other?
14897Suppose he should die, poor papa, all by himself? 14897 The fire still burns, my husband; O, how can you doubt it?"
14897Then, may I go, Mamma? 14897 Well, who is Lil Missus?
14897Well,said the officer, laying down his pen,"what can I do for you, little lady?"
14897Well; but, General, what must we do with the prisoner?
14897What are you detaining this gentleman for?
14897What did you strike her for, daughter?
14897What else did God make?
14897What have you got in your saddle- bags?
14897What made my papa go away, Mam''Sarah?
14897What must I tell him for you, Mamma?
14897What''s de matter, honey?
14897What''s the matter with you, tar baby?
14897Where are you going to?
14897Where are you going?
14897Where did you come from?
14897Who are you?
14897Who is Bert?
14897Who made you, Polly?
14897Who told you, Uncle Squire?
14897Who were you going to have at your tea party-- Brer Rabbit and Brer Fox?
14897Who''s dis, who''s dis, er coddlen down here, Wid her eyes full of greeven''tears? 14897 Why did you stay away from her so long if you loved her so dearly?"
14897Why not drive some of the others, Uncle Squire, so you can come in to prayers?
14897Why not?
14897Will you?
14897Will you?
14897Would you leave me, darling,she asked,"my one comfort?
14897Ye say they have?
14897Yes, I''ve got a mother; but what will she say when I tell her I left Bert lying yonder in that death- trap? 14897 You would, hey?"
14897And who should that somebody be but my own darling mamma?"
14897Ar''n''t you glad of the drubbing our boys gave the rebels?
14897As it was, she only smiled and said:"Well, I kept it for you; and are you as hungry as you were that night?"
14897At last they fell back, the living; what flesh and blood could do otherwise?
14897But this child, who is she?"
14897But who''d s''poze, now, you cud rikerlec so fur back?
14897But why do you ask?
14897But, where?
14897Dear little baby, what do you hear?
14897Did n''t they, now?"
14897Ennybody hurt your feelens?"
14897Folks, wo n''t you go to see the monkey show?"
14897Folks, wo n''t you go?
14897Gineril Lee an''Stonewall Jackson have been thrying it for some time, an''faith, if they ca n''t, how kin I?"
14897How are you, Squire?
14897Is he like you?"
14897It startled her for an instant, but she soon recovered composure and asked:"Who is it?"
14897Knowing not the hesitancy of doubt, nor the trammels of fear, what recked they of danger or of death, as they sprung to their work?
14897May I?
14897Now what do you suppose she did?
14897Old Squire especially humored the conceit:"Lemme see, Lil Missus; what room?"
14897Roberta called to Polly:"Is the baby asleep, Polly?"
14897See http://kdl.kyvl.org/cgi/t/text/text-idx?
14897Sing this, then:"Folks, wo n''t you go?
14897Splendid?
14897Suppose he should take you away from me, and carry you off where I could seldom see you, what would become of me?"
14897Whar iz you gwiner to put it?"
14897What iz you gwiner do then, honey?"
14897What kin I do?
14897What o''clock is it, old Buzzard?"
14897What right have I to hold him to so strict an account?
14897What right have they on Kentucky soil, anyhow?"
14897Where had he seen them before, those wondrously beautiful eyes?
14897Who was that dashing towards them in a cloud of dust?
14897Why was I not told I had a child?"
14897You are so good to everybody, and he is your little daughter''s papa, and you love him dearly, do n''t you, dear Mamma?"
14897[ Illustration:"Have you come for your gun?"
14897and what is she to Colonel Marsden?"
14897responded the General,"Do?
14897said Polly,"iz you rite sho'', Lil Missus, thar ain''nuffin''in it that''s gwiner blow my head orf?"
14897said he,"do n''t you know Uncle Charlie?"
14897said the hoy eagerly;"will you, really?
14897she cried, with beaming face, forgetting already the day''s worry,"are they raly our own boys?
14897she cried,"for you are Mr. McGarvy, ar''n''t you?
35581In fact, it was deemed advisable that our corps should advance(?)
35581With the morning and our hastily prepared breakfast came the question, everything then being so still,"Will there be fighting to- day?
35697Fallen, who can compute the loss?
35697Who can estimate their value to our State and country, if living?
35697Who will question the usefulness and value of a zealous religious instructor in the ranks of an army in the field?
11708But,said I,"does Mr. Buchanan know for what purpose you are going to North Carolina?"
11708Do n''t you intend to strengthen the forts at Charleston?
11708How can he[ Douglas] oppose the advances of slavery? 11708 If God be for us, who can be against us?
11708J. MEDILL, Esq., Chicago,( very) Ill.What have I ever said in favor of''Negro equality''with reference to your fight?
11708That is all very well,replied the President,"but does that secure the forts?"
11708We have now territory enough, but how long will it be enough? 11708 Were his reported remarks correct?"
11708What are five to one?
11708''I desire him to answer whether he is opposed to the acquisition of any new territory unless slavery is first prohibited therein?''
11708''I desire him to answer whether he stands pledged to the prohibition of the slave trade between the different States?''
11708''I desire to know whether Lincoln to- day stands, as he did in 1854, in favor of the unconditional repeal of the fugitive- slave law?''
11708''I want to know whether he stands to- day pledged to the abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia?''
11708And how is it he tells us they can exclude it?
11708Are you in favor of acquiring additional territory, in disregard of how such acquisition may affect the nation on the slavery question?"
11708But if we are to turn our attention to the dark ages of the world, why confine our view to colored slavery?
11708But if we possessed this power, would it be wise to exercise it under existing circumstances?...
11708But what then?
11708But who resists it?
11708By strengthening this Government?
11708Can he possibly show that it is less a sacred right to buy them where they can be bought cheapest?
11708Can he withhold it without violating his oath?
11708Can we not come together for the future?
11708Can you not help me a little in this matter in your end of the vineyard?"
11708Could the Charleston Convention heal the feud of leaders, and bridge the chasm in policy and principle?
11708Did we brave all then to falter now?--now, when that same enemy is wavering, dissevered, and belligerent?
11708Do you find it in our platform, our speeches, our conventions, or anywhere?
11708Do you really believe that such is our aim?
11708Do you say that such restriction of slavery would be unconstitutional, and that some of the States would not submit to its enforcement?
11708Does he mean to say that he has been devoting his life to securing to the people of the Territories the right to exclude slavery from the Territories?
11708Have you heard us assert that as our aim?
11708How are questions of public debt, public archives, public lands, and other public property, and, above all, the questions of boundary to be settled?
11708How are we to effect this?
11708How can it be otherwise?
11708How, then, have we to provide a remedy?
11708I ask any honest Democrat if the small, the local, the trivial and temporary question is not, Who shall be governor?
11708If I am asked, Why so?
11708If a State court may do this, on a question involving the liberty of a human being, what protection do the laws afford?
11708If it pass laws hostile to slavery, will you annul them and substitute laws favoring slavery in their stead?...
11708If it pass unfriendly acts, will you pass friendly?
11708If not, who are the disunionists, you or we?
11708If so, would it not furnish good reason for extending such facilities to the States?
11708In view of our moral, social, and political responsibilities, can we do this?
11708Is it expedient to do so?"
11708Is it proper to place arms in the hands of hired workmen?
11708Is the North to be the gainer?
11708Is the South to be the gainer?
11708Is this a sufficient excuse for devising a new test of political orthodoxy?...
11708It was therefore a simple problem: What candidate could carry these States?
11708On what ground has that confidence been forfeited, and why is it that we now refuse him our support and fellowship?
11708On whose authority, then, did Calhoun declare that the Administration had changed its mind?
11708Secondly, Did his residence at Rock Island and at Fort Snelling, under the various prohibitions of slavery existing there, work his freedom?
11708Should the majority, he asked, surrender to the minority?
11708The Dred Scott decision had thus annihilated"popular sovereignty,"Would Douglas admit his blunder in law, and his error in statesmanship?
11708There is only space to insert a few disconnected quotations: Now, what is Judge Douglas''s popular sovereignty?
11708These natural and apparently adequate means all failing, what will convince them?
11708Was there not an appropriation at the last session for converting flint into percussion arms?
11708Was this fourth instance the prelude of an intention to curb or stifle free Congressional debate?
11708What are we to do when you shall have broken up and destroyed this government?
11708What follows?
11708What induced the Southampton insurrection, twenty- eight years ago, in which at least three times as many lives were lost as at Harper''s Ferry?
11708What must she do?
11708What pen shall adequately describe this vast audience of ten thousand souls?
11708What result did he look for from his movement thus far?
11708What right had the Governor to intermeddle?
11708What will satisfy them?
11708What will they do?
11708What, now, did Brown intend to do?
11708When, how, or to what extent may we act, separately or unitedly, to ward off dangers if we can, to meet them most effectually if we must?
11708Who believes this?
11708Who has fought the battles of the South for the last twenty- five years, and borne the brunt of the difficulty upon the border?
11708Who has, in spite of the decision, declared Dred Scott free, and resisted the authority of his master over him?
11708Who is to be benefited?
11708Why did the message thus leap at one bound without necessary connection or coherence from the discussion of executive to those of legislative powers?
11708Why shall it be done?
11708Why talk of war against States when the duty of the hour was the exercise of acknowledged authority against insurrectionary citizens?
11708Why this secret suppression by Secretary Cobb?
11708Why?
11708Will it be replied that, while we are mutually unwilling now to yield anything, we will be mutually willing, after awhile, to concede everything?
11708Will it satisfy them if, in the future, we have nothing to do with invasions and insurrections?
11708Will they be satisfied if the Territories be unconditionally surrendered to them?
11708Will you?
11708Would it not equally recover from the shock of the Lecompton Constitution?
11708[ 2] Two questions were presented to the court: First, Is Dred Scott a citizen entitled to sue?
11708[ 2]"Shall I tell you what this collision means?
11708[ Sidenote] N.Y."Tribune,"May 18, 1860. Who, then, could carry these doubtful and pivotal States?
11708and more especially, can he pass unfriendly legislation to violate his oath?
11708while the durable, the important, and the mischievous one is, Shall this soil be planted with slavery?
33631Do you know Colonel Dent?
33631Halloa, how long have you been ashore?
33631Have I not seen you before?
33631Hello, Mike, where did you come from? 33631 How many have you eaten?"

33631----,-- who enticed you from this office?
33631After awhile I asked about the ale-- why they did not bring it?
33631Before I could say a word he gave a terrible yell; then he stuttered out,"Por Dios, que es esta?"

33631How did you know my name?"
33631On the way I was told that a brig bound for the West Indies needed a crew, and would I ship on her?
33631The only question with us was, What kind of fish will the next be?
33631What was the result?
33631When he had got the salt water out of his mouth, he wanted to know"what in---- we were trying to do with him?"
33631Will you take them?"

35107Have you any news of the Alabama?

35107But why this haste?

36067Why should it not, as well as Eastern fields, be marked by monuments, and its lines accurately preserved for history?

36200where does it come from?
36639Did they complain?
36673Discharged March 17, 1863, disability( died May 15, 1863?)
35692And what was on him?
35692And you got all that money, fourteen thousand dollars in greenbacks?
35692Was that all?
35692Can there be compensation for such unspeakable atrocities which take the best and leave the worst?
35692I said:"Hank, what is the use of riding so fast?"
35692Logan called out:"Boys, what is the matter?"
35692So is it any wonder that I am glad to see you?
35692Some asked:"What are you''ns goin''to do now?
35692The general then turned to a Confederate officer who was present, and said:"Did you say the money was in the tin case?"
35692The question throughout the South was:"Will the Northern man fight?"
35692Turning again to Phelps, he said:"Well Phelps, what was the nature of the papers you got?"
35692Upon our arrival Phelps was called before Logan who said:"Phelps, you got a horse yesterday when you were here, did n''t you?"
35692Why not mount the infantry?
35692Why was all this senseless wandering?
33211Did you see any of our folks?

33211Did they see me then walking my beaten path in the still quiet moonlight?
33211Echo answers_ where_?
33211Has the good work begun?
33211How did they spend to- day at home?
33211How long will such things last?
33211How many more times must I go on before I will be relieved from this machine life?
33211How much longer can her frail nature withstand it?
33211I came to judge for myself, is it right or wrong?
33211Is the weather too cold to fight, or is Hood gone?

33211What and where next?

28926What shall we do?
28926-- End of the Peninsula campaign-- Fifty or sixty thousand dead-- Who is responsible?
28926-- End of the Peninsula campaign-- Fifty or sixty thousand dead-- Who is responsible?
2892611._--Will any body in this country have the patriotic courage to reform the army?
28926258_ Consummatum est!_-- Will the outraged people avenge itself?
2892692 What will McClellan do?
28926And what is the army for?
28926And where has Seward acquired all this information?
28926Archbishop Hughes is to influence Paris and France,--but whom?
28926Are his heart, his soul, and his convictions to be looked for in the debate, or in the proclamation?
28926Are the European statesmen to be prepared beforehand, or are they to be befogged and prevented from judging for themselves?
28926Are we already so far?
28926But does Mr. Lincoln perceive other, more awful, signs of the times?
28926But if the rebellion is crushed before January 1st, 1863, what then?
28926But is that all which is needed in these terrible emergencies?
28926But is this the condition of the Union?
28926But will they have the energy?
28926Can Seward be fool enough to irritate England, and entangle this country?
28926Can Seward for a moment believe that Wikoff knows Europe, or has any influence?
28926Can anybody be a more noble incarnation of the American people than J. S. Wadsworth?
28926Can it be ignorance of this elementary knowledge with which is familiar every corporal in Europe?
28926Can this man never go out from this rotten treadmill?
28926Curious way of treating and dealing with rebellion, with rebels and traitors; why not arrest them?
28926Do these mummies intend to conduct a war without boldness?
28926Do they believe they can awake enthusiasm for their persons?
28926Do they not know better here in the ministry and in the councils?
28926Do they not know better?
28926Do those Fabiuses know what they talk about?
28926Does Seward believe it?
28926Does he see the bloody handwriting on the wall, condemning his unnatural, vacillating, dodging policy?
28926Has Scott used up his energy, his sense, and even his military judgment in defending Washington before the inauguration?
28926Has he not studied Napoleon''s wars?
28926Have they no blood; are they fishes?
28926Here,_ our great rulers and ministers_ shut the more closely their mind''s(?)
28926How are we to understand this man?
28926How can the Minister of Foreign Affairs advise the President to resort to such a measure?
28926How could it have been otherwise?
28926How far the diplomats sent by the administration are prepared for this task?
28926How will foreign nations behave?
28926How will the Congress act?
28926How will the people stand this masterly administrative demonstration?
28926I am sure that McClellan may lose the whole army, and why not if he continues as he began?
28926If he was so pugnacious in January, why has he not made with the same number of men a flying expedition only to Centreville, right under his nose?
28926If the rebels turn loyal before that term?
28926If the treasonable revolt is conceded to the Cotton States, on what ground can it be denied to the thus called Border States?
28926Is Seward so ignorant of international laws, of general or special history, or was it only said to throw dust?
28926Is he too old, or too much of a Virginian, or a hero on a small scale?
28926Is it possible to say such trash even as a joke?
28926Is that all that he knows of that hateful watchword-- strategy-- nausea repeated by every ignoramus and imbecile?
28926Is there any thing in the world capable of opening this people''s eyes?
28926Is there no penitentiary for all this mob?
28926Is this man mad?
28926Mr. Mercier retorted,"How can you, sir, have such notions?
28926Mr. Seward, Mr. Seward, why is your name to be recorded among the most ardent supporters of this_ strategy_?
28926O Mr. Seward, Mr. Seward, who is it that contributed to turn the current against the cause of right and of humanity?
28926Of what earthly use can be such_ politique provocatrice_ towards England?
28926Oh, why has he established his headquarters in the city, among flunkeys, wiseacres, and spit- lickers?
28926Oh, why this Congress possesses not the omnipotence of an English Parliament?
28926Or does his imagination or his patriotism carry him away or astray?
28926Or is it only to give some money to a hungry, noisy, and not over- principled office- seeker?
28926The men will come; but will statesmanship and generalship come with them?
28926The rebels act in this manner; but what point was found out, what blows were ever dealt by McClellan?
28926The vessel and the crew are excellent, and would easily obey the hand of a helmsman, but there is the rub, where to find him?
28926This movement was perhaps necessary, and could not be avoided; but why at the start had such a basis been selected?
28926Very well; but why not use for it the best, the most decided, and the most thorough means and measures?
28926Was it ignorance in McClellan, or his inborn disrespect of truth, or disrespect of the country, or something worse, that made him make such a report?
28926Was it neutral or honest?
28926Was not some Union- searching at the bottom of that stoppage?
28926Were the Magyars recognized as such in 1848-''49?
28926What a thoughtlessness to press on Russia the convention of Paris?
28926What an idea have those Americans of sending a secret agent to Canada, and what for?
28926What are doing in Europe all these various agents of Mr. Seward, and paid by Uncle Sam?
28926What can I do, what can I do?
28926What can signify his close alliance with such outlaws as Wikoff and the Herald, and pushing that sheet to abuse England and Lord Lyons?
28926What is the matter with Scott, or were the halo and incense surrounding him based on bosh?
28926What is the matter?
28926What is the use of urging on the foreign Cabinets-- above all, England and France-- to rescind the recognition of belligerents?
28926What is this administration about?
28926What is this wheel within a wheel?
28926What sacrifice the official leaders and pilots?
28926What the d---- is Seward with his politicians''policy?
28926What will McClellan do?
28926What will Mr. Seward say to it?
28926What will Seward and Chase say to it, and even old Abe, who himself dreams of re- election, or at least his friends do it for him?
28926What will be its march-- what stages?
28926What will be the result of this experimentalization, so contrary to sound reason?
28926What will he do with 600?
28926What will the anglophiles of Boston say to this?
28926When are his great plans to burst out?
28926When will they begin to see through McClellan, and find out that he is not the man?
28926When will they start, when begin to mould an army?
28926When will we deal blows?
28926When, oh, when will come the opposite?
28926Which of the two will be Mr. Lincoln''s fate?
28926Who around me approaches this ideal?
28926Who is to be taken in?
28926Why did not McClellan take_ the road_ himself, after Hooker was obliged to leave the field?
28926Why does Mr. Seward dabble in war and strategy at home?
28926Why does not the administration call for more on the North, and on the free States?
28926Why shows he not a little_ strategy_ under his nose here?
28926Why?
28926Will Halleck warn the country against McClellan''s incapacity?
28926Will McClellan display unity in conception, and vigor in execution?
28926Will it be one more illusion to be dispelled?
28926Will it turn out that the same men who are to- day at the head of affairs will be the men who shall bring to an end this revolt or revolution?
28926Will the cowardly murderers be exemplarily punished?
28926Will the shallow rhetors, will the would- be leaders in the Congress, be as subservient to the bunglers as they have been up to this hour?
28926Will this McClellan ever advance?
28926Will this outraged people avenge itself on the four or five diggers?
28926Yes, Stanton is, but how about some others?
28926_ Consummatum est!_-- Will the outraged people avenge itself?
28926_ Quousque tandem_--O SEWARD--_abutere patientiam nostram?__ Sept.
28926_ Who began the civil war?_ is repeatedly discussed by those quill cut- throats and allies on the Thames and on the Seine.
28926all these Weeds, Sandfords, Hughes, Bigelows, and whoever else may be there?
28926and, above all, what are the so expensive commander and his staff for?
28926what are they about?
33286All? 33286 Why was Lee not successful at Gettysburg?"
33286A private( one of my company) standing near me stood up and pointing toward the battlefield said,"Look at that, will you?"
33286And if they could have seen a picture of their homes and fields as they appeared in 1865, would they have rushed on?
33286Are these the people that we once mobbed as they marched through our streets?
33286But suppose Kilpatrick had suddenly appeared upon the scene and had thrown a few shells into those fields?
33286But what do you think of it today, as the finished product begins to unfold itself to our view?
33286But who has spoken for the boy?
33286Did you ever open the outside casing of one of these large patent beehives and see the bees at work inside?
33286Did you ever read"Black Beauty?"
33286Do you not believe there was a master mind behind it all, a King, and that these boys were but part of His royal subjects, doing His will?
33286Gibson call me?_"I saw the six ride off; Owens did n''t even say good- bye to me.
33286Had these boys any conception of what they were rushing into?
33286He came galloping toward us on his white horse, and with a voice that could be heard above the shots of the guns, he said,"What does this mean?"
33286He carried them loose in his pocket, and as he stepped between and over the men as they lay on the hard beds, he would say,"Who wants a pill?"
33286He turned to me and said,"Was n''t that a close shave?"
33286I said to myself, are these the people we of the South used to hate?
33286Now that Jackson was gone the question was, What will Gen. Lee do?
33286Shall we surrender?"
33286Smith raised his head upon his bosom, almost fearing to see him expiring in his arms, and asked,"General, are you much hurt?"
33286Someone said,"Well, boys, what are we going to do?
33286Suppose the Confederates had been beaten at Bull Run and Richmond had fallen, and the war had ended then?
33286That bloody drama in which there were 3,000,000 players-- a play that cost the country eight billions in money and half a million human lives?
33286The first thought among the private soldiers was,"Has Grant stolen a march on Lee, and is Richmond doomed?"
33286The question is often asked,"Why did Gen. Lee take his army into Pennsylvania?"
33286The question was asked 10,000 times perhaps that day,"What is Marse Robert up to now?
33286The question was( not only on our side of the river, but on the other),"What is Gen. Lee up to now?"
33286Was it a huge volcanic eruption?
33286What could Gen. Lee have done had all his horses balked in unison?
33286What do you suppose those Virginia girls were going to do about it, put on sackcloth and ashes?
33286What do you think of that?
33286What does it all mean?
33286What might we expect when these 500 handsome young men, all well mounted and armed, in whose veins flowed the blood of the heroes of the revolution?
33286What more did a sick soldier need?
33286What were the women doing?
33286What were they doing all this time?
33286What would have been the result?
33286What would you think of a monument some day, somewhere in Virginia, in honor of Lee''s noble horses?
33286Where is he taking us?"
33286Who but a Napoleon could provide so quickly for such an emergency?
33286Who has told of the part the boy played in that great drama that was on the stage for four years without intermission?
33286_ From Gettysburg to the Wilderness._"But who shall break the guards that wait Before the awful face of Fate?
36971God willing, I shall be able to do something by and by,he said,"and what shall it be?"
36971He would n''t let me go back; and what would Mrs. Holmes do without me?"
36971If Christ was on earth now, I do believe that he would make his home there-- a part of the time at least: do n''t you?"
36971Of a pleasant home where he had passed a brief time, he wrote,"It''s a second paradise: is n''t it?
36971but what could I do?
12384''Tis not from Mosby? 12384 And do you think it?
12384But what comes here?
12384ComeThe Colonel cried,"to talk you''re loath; D''ve hear?
12384From reason who can urge the plea-- Freemen conquerors of the free? 12384 Go where?"
12384How? 12384 Of course; but what''s that dangling there""Where?"
12384Stand up, my heart; be strong; what matter If here thou seest thy welded tomb? 12384 Still silent, friend?
12384What dead?
12384("A night- ride, eh?")
12384A gable time- stained peeps through trees:"You mind the fight in the haunted house?
12384A grudge?
12384A stoic he, but even more: The iron will and lion thew Were strong to inflict as to endure: Who like him could stand, or pursue?
12384A third-- a fourth-- Gun- boat and transport in Indian file Upon the war- path, smooth from the North; But the watch may they hope to beguile?
12384A voice comes out from these charnel- fields, A plaintive yet unheeded one:_''Died all in vain?
12384And Mosby?
12384And comes he there?
12384And life once over, who shall tell the rest?
12384And who shall go Storming the swarmers in jungles dread?
12384But dis I know--""Well, what?"
12384But how of the soldiers on the other side?
12384But is Reason still waiting for Passion to spend itself?
12384But stay- the Colonel-- did he charge?
12384But what delays?
12384But what exactly do we mean by this?
12384But who shall hymn the roman heart?
12384Can no final good be wrought?
12384Can poor spite be?
12384Confirm the curse?
12384Could he dare Disdain the Paradise of opening joy Which beckons the fresh heart every where?
12384Day- fights and night- fights; sore is the strees; Look, through the pines what line comes on?
12384Did all the lets and bars appear To every just or larger end, Whence should come the trust and cheer?
12384Do North and South the sin retain Of Yorkist and Lancastrian?
12384Do we dread lest the repose may be deceptive?
12384Even him who stoutly stood for Wrong, How can we praise?
12384Freely will Southen men with Northern mate?
12384Had Earth no charm to stay the Boy From the martyr- passion?
12384Had Mosby plotted there?
12384Has Time Gone back?
12384Have we gamed and lost?
12384He has his fame; But that mad dash at death, how name?
12384Her Kinsmen?
12384How shall I speak?
12384How shall I speak?
12384I here implore your hand; Dumb still?
12384In Unions name forever alienate?
12384In fear of Mosby?
12384In the recent convulsion has the crater but shifted?
12384Intestine rancor would you bide, Nursing eleven sliding daggers in your side?
12384Is this the proud City?
12384Little but these?
12384Longstreet slants through the hauntedness?
12384May I read?"
12384Nutting, nutting-- Who''ll''list to go a- nutting?_ Ah!
12384Of North or South they recked not then, Warm passion cursed the cause of war: Can Africa pay back this blood Spilt on Potomac''s shore?
12384One''s buttons shine-- does Mosby see?
12384Or Mosby''s men but watchmen there?
12384Proscribe?
12384Reap victory''s fruit while sound the core; What sounder fruit than re- established law?
12384Seven prisoners gone?
12384Shall Time, avenging every woe, To us that joy allot Which Israel thrilled when Sisera''s brow Showed gaunt and showed the clot?
12384Shall nobleness in victory less aspire Than in reverse?
12384Shall the great North go Sylla''s way?
12384So strong to suffer, shall we be Weak to contend, and break The sinews of the Oppressor''s knee That grinds upon the neck?
12384So, then, Solidity''s a crust-- The core of fire below; All may go well for many a year, But who can think without a fear Of horrors that happen so?
12384Speak out?
12384The black?
12384The blacks-- should we our arm withdraw, Would that betray them?
12384The first boat melts; and a second keel Is blent with the foliaged shade-- Their midnight rounds have the rebel officers made?
12384The grizzled Major smoked, and heard:"But what''s that-- Mosby?"
12384The man in the grass-- can he mount and away?
12384They brushed the foe before them( Shall gnats impede the bull?
12384This may seem a flat conclusion; but in view of the last five years, may there not be latent significance in it?
12384Upon differences in debate shall acrimonious recriminations be exchanged?
12384Warred one for Right, and one for Wrong?
12384Was it Treason''s retribution-- Necessity the plea?
12384We have sung of the soldiers and sailors, but who shall hymn the politicians?
12384Were the Unionists and Secessionists but as Guelphs and Ghibellines?
12384What best to do?
12384What could they else-- North or South?
12384What gloomed them?
12384What heart but spurns at precedent And warnings of the wise, Contemned foreclosures of surprise?
12384What if the gulfs their slimed foundations bare?
12384What if the night be drear, and the blast Ghostly shrieks?
12384What mean these peals from every tower, And crowds like seas that sway?
12384What power disbands the Northern Lights After their steely play?
12384What will be the temper of those Southern members?
12384What, holding back?
12384When blood returns to the shrunken vein, Shall the wound of the Nation bleed again?
12384Wherefore in a clear sky do we still turn our eyes toward the South, as the Neapolitan, months after the eruption, turns his toward Vesuvius?

36988Those could not be landed on French soil, and were not: did they go to the bottom with the ship herself, or are they saved?
36988What, then, will be thought of the 15-inch gun, throwing a shot of 480 pounds, or of the 200-pound Parrot, with its range of five miles?
32246And the rennet for the cheese, and the salt- pork?
32246And the salt?

32246Heow be yer?
32246How dare you?
32246How many have you got left?
32246It is, eh?
32246Midget,said Col. McArthur,"if you had supreme command of our army, what would you do?"
32246No? 32246 Oh, plenty,"he replied;"how many, do you want?"
32246Oh, yes,he said, and pointing to a little group of men, who were round a wee bit of a fire;"there he is, do n''t you know him?"
32246Say, got time ter get on''ter the waggin an go over to my farm and see him, take dinner with me? 32246 Too small?"
32246Well, how did you get it, anyway?
32246What are you doing with my chickens, you good- for- nothing Yankee thief?
32246What dew yer want for''em?
32246What kind of a horse?
32246What the h-- l should I be afraid of?
32246What time is it, Pod?
32246What''s that firin I hear? 32246 What?"
32246Why, ai n''t the watch going?
32246Why, thar been''t more''n a thousan''thar, be thar?
32246You do, eh?
32246You want a harness and waggin too, do n''t yer?
32246You''gorramed''little cuss, why do n''t you salute me?
32246Ai n''t no rebs''round yere, be thar?"
32246And then divining the truth, he exclaimed:"Gor- ram it, did you sell the watch for that pie?"
32246As I went in, the lieutenant turned to me with a quizzical smile on his face:"Young man, you told me you were a printer?"
32246Blue?
32246Ca n''t you steal one?"
32246Did you bring the merlasses, and candles, and the broom?"
32246Do you think I will?"
32246Figured up what the whole thing cost me: The horse stood me$ 33.50, the"gig"$ 7.50, and the harness,(?)
32246He asked, what I was?
32246I asked him if he knew where my brother was-- Charley Ulmer?
32246I asked the first man I came to where the Eighth Maine was?
32246I could n''t speak, I could n''t move, till one of them said,"Good evening, sar; got anything to eat?"
32246I had just nicely covered it up when my friend returned and asked:"What YOU been diggin''for thar-- them durned things too?
32246I sang out:"It was n''t their fault; what are you blaming them for?"
32246I say, Mister, whar''s your Comp''ny?"
32246In a moment a little, bright, bustling old woman came to the door and shading her eyes with her apron, called back:"What is it, Dan''l?
32246Is it correct?"
32246K.''this job?"
32246Oh George, George, why did you come here?"
32246The colonel said,"Is that all you want?
32246Wall, I''d like purty well ter have them poles, but--,"as if a sudden idea had struck him,--"Don''t want ter trade fur a horse, dew yer?"
32246What do you mean?"
32246What if I had, in my bewilderment, run into the rebel lines?
32246What in h-- l is the good of a man without hands?"
32246What will my poor mother say?
32246What will my poor mother say?
32246What would I do?
32246What you been doin'', playing with one of those d-- d shells, too?"
32246What you laughing at?
32246What''ll yer take fur the hull lot?"
32246What''s your cargo?"
32246Where?
32246Why did n''t you try and get two?"
32246Why do n''t you salute me?
32246Why, do you know he''s trotted in two minutes?
32246You been''t Phil''s son, be yer?"
32246You do n''t think thar''s any danger of them grey- coats disturbing me, do you?
32246at the same time hitting the oxen over their noses with his goad- stick, and resting on the yoke, he asked,"What yer goin''ter dew with them poles?"
32246he said,"ai n''t there some way?
32246how do you spell business?"
32246sticking his hands in either breeches pocket and taking me in from head to foot with a comprehensive glance,"What might yer name be?"
32246what yer givin''me?
33121Did not Old Greece, or some tribe from about the sources of the Nile win it?
33121Here, what are these men falling back for?
33121How is it going?
33121Shall we attack the Rebel?
33121Then why tell me what I do not ask or care to know?
33121Will he attack us?
33121Will there be a battle to- day?
33121Will you see your color storm the wall alone?
33121And how look these fields?
33121And my horse can hardly move-- the spur will not start him-- what can be the reason?
33121And what if that invasion should be successful, and in the coming battle, the Army of the Potomac should be overpowered?
33121As he arrived near me, coming up the hill, he asked, in a sharp, eager voice:"How is it going here?"
33121At four o''clock on the morning of the Third, I was awakened by Gen. Gibbon''s pulling me by the foot and saying:"Come, do n''t you hear that?"
33121But where is the infantry?
33121Can you assist him?"
33121Did they not charge him personally, with the defeat at Chancellorsville?
33121Do these thick mounds cover the fiery hearts that in the battle rage swept the crest and stormed the wall?
33121Do you not think that by this time we began to feel a personal interest in this fight?
33121Does the country know any better than the President that Meade, Hancock and Gibbon were entitled to some little share of such credit?
33121Has it vanished in smoke?
33121How?
33121I would ask of a man I met,"Do you know, sir, where the 2d corps hospitals are?"
33121Is it strange?
33121Is the assault already repulsed?_"his voice quicker and more eager than before.
33121Is this a nightmare or a juggler''s devilish trick?
33121Might not the enemy fall upon and destroy the First Corps before succor could arrive?
33121Oh, where is Gibbon?
33121That Corps gone, what is there between the Second Corps, and these yelling masses of the enemy?
33121The artillery fight over, men began to breathe more freely, and to ask, What next, I wonder?
33121Then I would ask sharply,"Did you understand me to ask for the 12th corps hospital?"
33121Thought we, what could this mean?
33121To the question asked the men,"What do you think of this?"
33121Was ever a more absurd supposition?
33121Was ever claim so absurd?
33121Was ever princely couch or softest down so soft as those rough blankets, there upon the unroofed sod?
33121Was ever such a chorus of sound before?
33121Was not that a fit occasion, and these fugitives the men on whom to try the temper of the Solinzen steel?
33121Was there ever anything so fine before?
33121Were they not still burning with indignation against him for that disgrace?
33121What other expression had we that was not mean, for such an awful universe of battle?
33121What sound was that?
33121What was it ever put there for?
33121What would be the result?
33121Where was I?
33121Who can describe such a conflict as is raging around us?
33121Who could sketch the changes, the constant shifting of the bloody panorama?
33121Who of us could tell but that he would be the first to need them?
33121Why does the Western Army suppose that the Army of the Potomac does not fight?
33121Why not go to your regiment and be a man?"
33121Will the country remember them?
33121With his not greatly superior numbers, under such circumstances had Gen. Meade attacked, would he have been victorious?
33121Would it not be?
33121or if stately history fill as she list her arbitrary tablet, the sounding record of this fight?
33121were my senses mad?
33121where is Hancock?--some general-- anybody with the power and the will to support that wasting, melting line?
375How far is it to the Owl Creek bridge?
375Is there no force on this side of the creek?
37550Again the people north were clamorous for the removal of Meade; why did he not attack Lee in his entrenchments?
37550It was a hard fought battle, but what could five thousand men do against thirty thousand?
37550Johnny replies, with his fingers up to his nose,"Do you Yanks see anything of the South- side railroad?"
37550Nearly six months had passed since the troops crossed the Rapidan, and what had been accomplished?
37550Our boys would cry out,"Halloo, Johnny Reb., did you get enough of the valley?"
37550Where is Sheridan?
37550send French''s pets in there?
22584An''ef I''m loyil, I''m same as you''uns?
22584And why not?
22584But he does not appear, I suppose?
22584But is it usual,I queried,"for you gentlemen to refuse promotion when offered-- I do n''t mean to not seek it-- to remain with your old companies?
22584Can you get in here, sir?
22584Did it ever strike you,said the colonel, waxing philosophic,"that you_ ca n''t_ dine in but two places south of the Potomac?
22584Hard to believe, sir, is n''t it? 22584 Have you paid your fare?"
22584How far astern?
22584How is it you have n''t your commission?
22584How you fine zat, eh? 22584 I''d show well at the club-- portrait of a gentleman?"
22584Indeed?
22584It_ would_ go well with that stew, taken out of a tin cup-- eh, cookey?
22584Mussput--_hic_--fi dollus on- jack?
22584Next quadwille, Miss Wose?
22584No? 22584 That''s what the council this evening meant?"
22584The President is at this house?
22584Wa''dat yo''s sain''now?
22584Waffer, Mars''Sam?
22584Wail then,rejoined Johnny Reb slowly,"did n''t them darned rebs jest geen us hell sometimes?"
22584We''re all good Union alike, eh?
22584What are you doing here?
22584What do I wish?
22584What do I wish?
22584What do you think Bendann would give for a negative of me?
22584What would''the house''do? 22584 What''s the Washington news?"
22584When do I start?
22584When do you start?
22584Will she overtake us, Cap''n?
22584Will your government use force to supply Fort Sumter?
22584Work for the government?
22584Yes, for the South? 22584 Yo allus calls de Gen''ral--_Weel_-er?"
22584Yo''say Ise jess ekal as yo''is?
22584''Bold and erect the Caledonian stood,''but how long do you think he would have been''bold,''if they had stewed his''rare beef''for him?
22584--"Has Bragg commenced business?"
22584--"What about Tennessee convention?"
22584And pray why?"
22584And through it rose a hoarse whisper, swelling at last into angry query, why had the campaign miscarried?
22584And what are your new duties?"
22584And why not?
22584Anxious knots were at every station and water tank, and not overclean hands were thrust into the windows, with the cry:"Airy paper?"
22584But does yo''say dat Ise good as missus?--_my_ missus?"
22584But is that proud flag-- with the glory and the pride wrought into its folds, by suffering, honor and endurance unexcelled-- really"furled forever?"
22584But were these worn and wretched men a fair sample of the army that was to battle for their dear city against the fresh thousands of McClellan?
22584But, said the dancers, we do the fighting-- we are the ones who are killed-- and if we do n''t object, why in the deuce should you?
22584CHAPTER XXVI.--The Failure of Finance 223- 229 Was Cotton really King?
22584Can any candid thinker analyze these results and then believe Grant a strategist-- a great soldier-- anything but a pertinacious fighter?
22584Captain Wyatt, A.A.G.--demnition neat, eh?
22584Did anybody ever make connection there?
22584Did you hear that_ mustang_ colonel?
22584Do n''t it bring back our dinners at the Spanish legation?
22584Do n''t yer want''er go for a sojer?"
22584Do n''t you wonder how we ever dare to declare ourselves old enough?"
22584Do they not illustrate the character of the navy, and bring it out in bold relief of heroism?
22584Early in secession days, a bombastic friend approached Colonel Tom, with the query:"Well, sir, I presume your voice is still for war?"
22584Eh?
22584Evening boat, March 4th?
22584Has History a Parallel?
22584How can men legislate-- how can men fight with a pound of stewed abomination holding them like lead?
22584If Government will on any pretext ignore one- third of its obligation, what guarantee have we for the other two?
22584Is it a go?"
22584Lots of southern members leaving already"--and Knower''s voice sunk to a whisper--"and would you believe it?
22584Men looked at each other through the gloom, and even as they asked--"Brother, what of the night?"
22584One day, at the St. Charles, a resident stopped him on the way to their accustomed table:"Have you seen these people eat?"
22584She stopped in mid- waltz; touched my friend on the broidered chevron with taper fingers, and sweetly said:"Captain, may I trouble you to dismount?"
22584So I answered the question by another:"What are you going to do when you get there?"
22584So hist him along, will yer?"
22584Some one has Blundered?
22584Swallowing the obnoxious allegiance, he turned to the Federal officer and quietly asked:"Wail, an''now I reck''n I''m loyil, ai n''t I?"
22584Taking title, eh?
22584The generals past, an aide spurred up to the toilet- making vet, and queried sharply:"Did n''t you see the generals, sir?
22584The other adding:"You doubt it?
22584Then, to be as good as my word, I sold some cotton and some stock, equipped this company and--_voila tout!_""But you are not commanding your company?"
22584They had left affluence, luxury, the caresses of home-- and, harder than all, the habits of society-- for what?
22584Toward her sallied the flippant young underling, with the greeting:"Well, madam, what do_ you_ wish?"
22584Was Johnston hounded to His Death?
22584Was it a wonder that I then and there swore at that fireman, as only meek and long- suffering men, when aroused, can swear?
22584Was it the punch?
22584Was n''t he, Styles?
22584Was she a new Sodom?
22584Were not their sons, and husbands, and brothers, really a part of them?
22584Were these the only dependence of their hopes and their cause?
22584What do you say?
22584What in thunder are you doing?"
22584What is it, adjutant?"
22584Where did he get that idea?
22584Where does history show more stirring motives for poetry?
22584Where were the Leaders?
22584Whether the monotonous stretches of pine barren depress mentally, or frequent recurring"ager"prostrates physically, who shall say?
22584Who did More than They?
22584Who does not remember"Beechenbrook,"that pure Vestal in the temple of Mars?
22584Who has not heard of the First Virginia?
22584Who in all that goodly throng of soldiers, statesmen and critics-- did more?
22584Who in army, or government, did not?
22584Who in the South does not honor it?
22584Who shall justly calculate the influence the lobby and its workings had in hastening that inevitable, the war between the states?
22584Who will stop that mighty whirligig to inspect whether the champagne is real, or the turtle is prime?
22584Who, that was in it, will ever forget that bitter night?
22584Why do n''t you speak English, instead of saying''wah yo''is''?"
22584Why had General Lee been forced into battle on ground of the enemy''s choosing?
22584Why had he fought the whole Yankee army with one division?
22584Why had the campaign failed?
22584Why on Pursuit?
22584Why should the best blood of Carolina do more than the best blood of Virginia?"
22584Why was Victory not Pushed?
22584Why, what''ll become of our business if they move the Capital?
22584Why_ do n''t_ they behave themselves?
22584Will the cute Yankee of New England submit to be ruined, and starved, and taxed in addition?
22584Will the great commercial metropolis let the grass grow in her streets and the vessels rot at her wharves, that once laughed with southern cotton?
22584Would There be a Long War-- or any?
22584Would n''t that make a show on a waxed floor?"
22584Would you stay in the ranks as a private when as a captain or major you might do better service?"
22584Wy, we''uns kem hyah ter fight th''Yanks; an''ef you''uns skeer''un off, how''n thunder ez thar goan ter be a scrimmidge, no how?"
22584Yer married his sister Cynthy-- the one as squints?
22584You do n''t mean Miss Mamie on Charles street, do you?
22584You remember her that night at Mrs. R.''s fancy ball?"
22584_ Que voulez vous?_ Pork is mighty!
22584any news from home?"
22584asked a splendid fellow leaning on an ax, the rapid strokes of which he stilled at my approach--"Not a half bad thing for a fancy ball, eh?"
22584cheerily responded the youth, rising from his seat--"Have you got a leg for me, too?"
22584cried a baldheaded man from the fire--"Don''t your heart rise at the scent of this_ olla_, my boy?
22584was the bland query--"Pray what was it?"
22584what are my principles to you?
22584with a war in the land must people enjoy themselves?
22584you did?
18678Am I to be appointed to some other ship, father?
18678Am I to confine myself solely to the two points assigned to me?
18678And what may this be, father?
18678And you say the Trafladagar is at anchor off the p''int?
18678Anything more to be done, Captain Bristler?
18678Are we to choose our own courses?
18678Are you a sailor as well as a machinist, Weeks?
18678Are you all ready?
18678Are you wounded?
18678Are your men all sailors, Jerry?
18678Be you Meth''dis''o''Bab''tis'', Massa Mate?
18678But how do you and the Bellevite happen to be in this latitude, Captain Breaker?
18678But where will you berth, captain?
18678But who and what are they?
18678But whom do you suppose I saw on board the prize, Christy?
18678By the way, Captain Sullendine, do you happen to have a second mate?
18678By the way, father, what has become of Monsieur Gilfleur?
18678By the way, friend Bokes, I suppose you have been on board of the Tallahatchie?
18678Did you go down to the shore, Charley?
18678Do I fail in the discharge of my duty in my present position, Captain?
18678Do n''t you see that you are crushing my two boats and the men in them?
18678Do you fully understand your orders, French?
18678Do you mean to murder them?
18678Do you see that post, my men?
18678Do you see them men on the cotton, Bokes?
18678Do you surrender?
18678Do you think it is quite prudent, Mr. Passford, to approach them?
18678Does dem sea- hosses drink whisker, Massa Secon''Mate?
18678Does you uns happen to have any more apple- jack?
18678East, Captain Passford?
18678Grant all that you say, and where does the flanking come in?
18678Have n''t you heard the news, Captain Passford?
18678Have you instructed French what to do with Captain Sullendine if he should attempt to make trouble?
18678How are Aunt Lydia, Corny, and Gerty? 18678 How are ye, Mr. Balker?
18678How are ye, shipmates?
18678How big is she?
18678How d''e?
18678How do you feel this morning, my friend?
18678How do you find the engine?
18678How does she head, Christy?
18678How is Corny? 18678 How is the cabin, Captain Sullendine?"
18678How is your prisoner?
18678How many guns does she carry?
18678How shall we move him, doctor?
18678How''d you know one on''em was the mate if you did n''t see''em?
18678I say, Cousin Bird, what''s this tandem team hitched up fer?
18678If I do n''t find her ready to come out to- night, would it not be well to repeat my visit to the shore until we learn something about her?
18678If you come from that way, have you seen anything of my four men that deserted the schooner?
18678Is all well on board, French?
18678Is that the captain?
18678Is there anything like a flank movement in boarding, Captain Breaker?
18678Is this all the complaint you have to make, Captain Sullendine?
18678It is not known, I suppose, whether or not the Trafalgar has come down from Mobile?
18678May I stay on deck, doctor?
18678Mr. Balker and Jerry Sandman--"Who are they?"
18678Mr. Vapoor? 18678 Not to the Gulf?
18678Now who be you fellers?
18678Now, do you see the two stars about half way between the horizon and the zenith?
18678Now, where is your wound, Captain Rombold?
18678So you have been spinning a yarn, have you, Charley?
18678The Tallahatchie, sir?
18678The Trafladagar?
18678The captain''s pretty well set''up,''is n''t he Christy?
18678Then why ca n''t the second mate take one of the berths in the cabin?
18678Then you think Fort Morgan can be reduced from the land side?
18678Then your ship was a blockade- runner?
18678This Captain Sullendine is still secured in his stateroom on board of the West Wind, is he?
18678This is her midship gun, you say?
18678Uncle Homer Passford?
18678Was Mr. Graines of any use to you on deck, Christy?
18678Was any one inclined to accept his offer, and go in search of the runaways?
18678Was one on''em the mate?
18678Well, Captain Rombold, how are you feeling?
18678Well, is that agin the laws o''war?
18678Well, where are we going, Captain, if it is no longer a secret?
18678What are they?
18678What are you about, sir?
18678What are you doing there?
18678What be you uns doin''here?
18678What could be worse?
18678What did the captain say?
18678What does that mean?
18678What does this mean, father?
18678What is the matter, Colonel Passford? 18678 What is the matter?
18678What is the real object, Captain?
18678What is the row there, French?
18678What mental trouble can he have?
18678What news? 18678 What steamer is that, Captain?"
18678What time is it now, Charley? 18678 What time is it now?"
18678What''s that tandem team fer?
18678What''s that?
18678What''s the Talla- what- you- call- her?
18678What''s the p''int, shipmate?
18678What''s this team hitched up that way for? 18678 What''s this, father?"
18678What''s your name, my man?
18678Where away?
18678Where away?
18678Where does the West Wind keep herself now, Bird?
18678Where is the West Wind now?
18678Where is this schooner bound, Sopsy?
18678Where was he? 18678 Where''d you come from, my hearty?"
18678Where''s the rest on ye?
18678Who be you, strangers?
18678Who is Dr. Davidson, my son?
18678Who''s that?
18678Who, then?
18678Why do you call her a pirate?
18678Why do you go there?
18678Why was he sent home on a furlough?
18678Will you allow me to put on my uniform, Captain?
18678Will you be silent?
18678You left her?
18678You wish to go to the railroad station, do you not?
18678_ Comment allez- vous ce matin?_( How do you do this morning?)
18678_ Comment allez- vous ce matin?_( How do you do this morning?)
18678Are you a sailor, my lively lad?"
18678At the same time we had learned all about the West Wind"--"The what?"
18678Baskirk?"
18678But where shall we pick up our chief engineer?"
18678Can I do anything for you?"
18678Did n''t I tell yer the Trafladagar''s been waiting here three days for a good chance to run out?"
18678Graines?"
18678Graines?"
18678Graines?"
18678Graines?"
18678Has Captain Breaker fallen out with him?"
18678Have you heard from your father lately, Christy?"
18678How does she head now?"
18678Is the steamer go''n''to tow the schooner up to Mobile?"
18678Is this understood?"
18678Linscott?"
18678Makepeace?"
18678Makepeace?"
18678May I ask his name?"
18678Now, how comes you uns hyer?"
18678One and Two?"
18678Passford?"
18678Passford?"
18678Passford?"
18678Passford?"
18678Passford?"
18678Passford?"
18678Regis?"
18678Regis?"
18678What can I do for you?"
18678What was he doing?"
18678Where are you, Bokes?"
18678Where is he now?"
18678Where is the wound?"
18678Where was you born, Sam?"
18678Who and what are the officers?"
18678Wo n''t you come into the office?"
18678Zbalker?"
37754He turned on them and asked,"Which of you was it who set fire to those bridges yesterday?"
37754Whenever any of us have been at home, among the first inquiries would be,"How is the Third Wisconsin?"
37754Why was it, then, that we had been forced back?
10692Do you think your men can stand it?
10692Infantry or cavalry?
10692So that,retorted his interrogator,"the bonds are not yet due by their terms?"
10692What was the amount of the Confederate force under command of Lee?
10692Who commands the regiment?
10692''Where''s the man who wo n''t follow Uncle Robert?''
10692''Which is his own, father?''
10692And that you felt to be your justification in taking the course you did?
10692And you can not foresee that such would be your inclination in such an event?
10692Are they as much, or more, interested in developing their material interests than they were?
10692Are you acquainted with the proposed amendment now pending in the Senate of the United States?
10692Are you acquainted with the state of feeling among what we call secessionists in Virginia, at present, toward the Government of the United States?
10692Are you aware of the existence of any combination among the"whites"to keep down the wages of the"blacks?"
10692As the conversation continued, the sound awoke General Lee, who asked,"Who is there?"
10692Can I ever forget?
10692Can capitalists and workingmen from the North go into any portion of Virginia with which you are familiar and go to work among the people?
10692Did I say unequalled?
10692Did any man ever fight against more desperate odds or resources?
10692Did not his( Hunter''s) move prevent this?
10692Did you take an oath of fidelity, or allegiance, to the Confederate Government?
10692Do they avoid and ostracize them socially?
10692Do they show a capacity to obtain knowledge of mathematics and the exact sciences?
10692Do they, in your opinion, regard that as a just debt?
10692Do you not frequently hear, in your intercourse with secessionists in Virginia, expressions of a hope that such a war may break out?
10692Do you not think it would turn a good deal, in the cotton States, upon the value of the labor of the black people?
10692Do you recollect the terms of the Confederate bonds-- when they were made payable?
10692Do you see any change among the poorer classes in Virginia, in reference to industry?
10692Do you think that Virginia would consent to allow the negro to vote?
10692Do you think there is a willingness on the part of their old masters to give them fair living wages for their labor?
10692Do you think they would prefer to work for Northern or Southern men?
10692Does that absence of a lust of money and property arise more from the nature of the negro than from his former servile condition?
10692During the civil war, was it not contemplated by the Government of the Confederacy to form an alliance with some foreign nation if possible?
10692Has it been surpassed in history?
10692Has the colored race generally as great love of money and property as the white race possesses?
10692Have you heard that subject talked over among any of the politicians?
10692Have you not seen a wavering line restored by the magic of his presence?
10692Have you not seen the few forget that they were fighting against the many, because he was among the few?
10692How can we give expression to the crowding memories called forth by the sad event we are met to deplore?
10692How can we tell the world what we can only feel ourselves?
10692How do the people of Virginia, secessionists more particularly, feel toward the freedmen?
10692How do the secessionists feel in regard to the payment of the debt of the United States contracted in the prosecution of the war?
10692How do they feel in regard to the education of the blacks?
10692How long have you resided in Lexington?
10692How would they escape, in their own mind?
10692I refer to the past-- I am referring to the past and the feelings they would have?
10692IN CASE OF WAR, WOULD VIRGINIA JOIN OUR ENEMIES?
10692If it is a fair question-- you may answer or not, as you choose-- what, in such an event, might be your choice?
10692In his policy in regard to what?
10692In reference to the effect of President Johnson''s policy, if it were adopted, would there be any thing like a return of the old feeling?
10692In such an event, do you not think that that class of people whom I call secessionists would join the common enemy?
10692In what light would they view it?
10692Is it not because his piety was humble and sincere?
10692Is not this why these tributes have been paid to his memory?
10692Is only that man successful who erects a material monument of greatness by the enforcement of his ideas?
10692Is their prejudice increased or diminished?
10692Is there a general willingness to have them educated?
10692Is there another instance of such self- abnegation among men?
10692Is there any difference in their relations to the colored people?
10692Is there any other matter which you desire to state to the committee?
10692Is there not a deep- seated feeling of disappointment and chagrin at the result of the war?
10692Is there not a general dislike of Northern men among secessionists?
10692It will take a number of years?
10692Johnston wrote to him from the west:"How can I eat or sleep in peace without_ you_ upon the outpost?"
10692Need I speak of the many exhibitions of that confidence?
10692Of the man, how shall I speak?
10692On the whole, the condition of things in Virginia is hopeful both in regard to its material interests and the future peace of the country?
10692Q. I suppose the Confederate debt is almost entirely valueless, even in the market in Virginia?
10692Should the assaulting column consist of white or negro troops?
10692Six months after the ratification of a treaty of peace between the United States and the Confederate Government?
10692So that the bonds are not due yet by their terms?
10692State, if you please-- and if you are disinclined to answer the question you need not do so-- what your own personal views on that question are?
10692Taking the thin hand in his own, he said:"How do you feel, bishop?"
10692Tell me whether to place the chaplet of military superiority with him, or with Marlborough, or Wellington?
10692That impressed me very much, because, at the beginning of the campaign, Lee was not prosperous; and why?
10692That is the feeling down there?
10692The poorer classes are generally hard at work, are they?
10692There are very few colored laborers employed, I suppose?
10692There is no desire to keep out capital?
10692They do not generally suppose that it was treason against the United States, do they?
10692They would object to such an amendment?
10692Upon the amount which they produce?
10692Victory marked every step of his triumphant march; but when, where, and whom did Marlborough fight?
10692Was his life a failure?
10692What Confederate is there who would refuse to raise his cap as their funeral- train went by or hesitate to drop a flower upon their graves?
10692What is the feeling of that portion of the people of Virginia in regard to the payment of the so- called Confederate debt?
10692What is the position of the colored men in Virginia with reference to persons they work for?
10692What is your observation in that respect in regard to Virginia?
10692What man could have laid down his sword at the feet of a victorious general with greater dignity than did he at Appomattox Court- House?
10692What man is there that would not have gone to renewed death for such a leader?
10692What must have been his emotions as he rode, through his own lines at Appomattox, to the commander of the opposing army, and tendered his sword?
10692What successful warrior or ruler, in ancient or modern times, has descended to his grave amid such universal grief and lamentation as our Lee?
10692What will become of the women and children of the South, if we are not here to protect them?"
10692What would be their excuse or justification?
10692What, in your opinion, would be the practical result?
10692When General Burnside issued the order for this injudicious advance, two of his general officers met, and one asked:"What do you think of it?"
10692When asked the question,"Did you discover, after the battle of Gettysburg, any symptoms of demoralization in Lee''s army?"
10692When he found it necessary to retreat from Lynchburg, did he not take the most feasible route?''
10692Where is your present residence?
10692Where would he have been to- day?
10692Which side should he espouse-- the side of the United States or that of the South?
10692Why is it that at the South we see this universal, spontaneous demonstration?
10692Why?
10692Would she consent, under any circumstances, to allow the black people to vote, even if she were to gain a large number of representatives in Congress?
10692Would they pay that debt, or their portion of it, with as much alacrity as people ordinarily pay their taxes to their Government?
10692You do not feel down there that, while you accept the result, we are as generous as we ought to be under the circumstances?
10692You say that you do not recollect having sworn allegiance and fidelity to the Confederate Government?
10692You see nothing of a disposition to prevent such a thing?
10692You think they would?
13334Ah, Cameron,said the higher officer, reining up, and throwing his right leg across the pommel of his saddle in a most unmilitary way--"anything up?
13334And could you not have known-- could you not see, sir, that you were attacking our own men?
13334And it is-- necessary-- to engage them? 13334 And the prisoner, General?"
13334And what may that be?
13334And you are not dead?
13334Armisted-- Captain,said the Governor, extending his hand,"do you not know me?"
13334At what?
13334But about Jack-- Mr. Raynor? 13334 But do you think,"said the third man,"that this superstitious feeling, this fear of the dead, reasonless as we know it to be, is universal?
13334But how does it get the other snakes? 13334 Ca n''t I get into this?"
13334Can you tell me,he cried, suddenly checking his speed,"where I can find a doctor?"
13334Did you fire?
13334Do you believe that I have lost this wager?
13334Do you guess what I have written?
13334Do you hear_ that_?
13334Do you know anything of the orders under which I was acting?
13334Eh, what''s that? 13334 For loving you?"
13334For specific example?
13334Have you any arrangements of your own that you wish to make? 13334 Have you still the confidence of youth in the courage or stolidity of your friend?"
13334How can I know that? 13334 How did he die?"
13334How do you feel, sir?
13334How do you know that you are to die to- morrow morning?
13334How do you know that?
13334How far is it to the Owl Creek bridge?
13334How the devil could I have forgotten where it was?
13334I am accounted brave,he thought;"is bravery, then, no more than pride?
13334Is it likely,she resumed,"that a person born under such circumstances is like others-- is what you call sane?"
13334Is there no force on this side the creek?
13334Miss Dement, are you ill?
13334No;_ was_ he, indeed?
13334None whatever,I replied rather gruffly;"but in what capacity will you go?
13334Of what regiment?
13334Ought n''t a man to be ashamed to lie?
13334Physicians and soldiers!--why do n''t you add hangmen and headsmen? 13334 See here, Morrison,"said he, looking his gossiping staff officer straight in the face,"did you get that story from a gentleman or a liar?"
13334Then I am to understand that my application is denied?
13334To you? 13334 Well?"
13334Well?
13334What are you doing here, my man?
13334What can happen? 13334 What do you mean,"I said,"by''years and years''?"
13334What do you mean?
13334What does he look like?
13334What have I to fear?
13334What is it, Barbour?
13334What''s the matter?
13334When?
13334Where is Captain Armisted?
13334Where is Lieutenant Price?
13334Who are the men who made that statement?
13334Who is he?
13334Who the devil are you?
13334Who was the aggressor in this affair, you or General Hart?
13334Will you not tell me all?
13334You are determined to have my reason?
13334You know it-- you know that, and you sit here smoking? 13334 Your rank?"
13334--the words fell sharp and harsh, like the clash of steel blades--"you have been fighting our own men-- our own men, sir; do you hear?
13334Among the trees-- what?
13334And the horse and its rider?
13334And these?"
13334Are the guns near the house?"
13334Are you always cocked and primed for enjoyment?
13334As he approached me he lifted his hat, saying,"Miss Dement, may I sit with you?--or will you walk with me?"
13334Assurance?
13334At him?
13334Because there are none to witness the shame shall I retreat?"
13334But he listened-- why should he not?
13334But how ascertain if the enemy is there?
13334But what could he do?
13334Can you accelerate my pulse, make me start at sudden noises, send a nervous chill along my spine and cause my hair to rise?"
13334Could anything be finer than that?
13334Could words have been more stupid?
13334Did he wish to surrender?
13334Did she, by some of the many methods of divination known to her sex, read my feelings?
13334Did you ever know such assurance?
13334Do I make myself understood, sir?"
13334Do I then really wish that I had taken life in the performance of a duty as well performed without?
13334Do you happen to know that Captain Coulter is from the South?"
13334Do you keep every mood on tap, ready to any demand?
13334Do you know if the Blavatsky crowd have that power-- outside of Sepoy?
13334Do you know that this is a serious matter?"
13334Do you know, dear, if the Thugs and Experts of the Blavatsky region have any special kind of eyes?
13334Do you mean to say that he had anything to do with this horrible business?"
13334Do you really care for a serenade by Schubert when you hear it fiddled by an untimely Italian on a morning ferryboat?
13334Do you think your''authorities''will believe you?"
13334Do you wish to see a chaplain, for example?"
13334Does it matter if we give to the preparatory molecular changes the name of will?
13334Explain that I saw an enemy and fired?
13334For what, indeed?
13334For what?
13334Has the reader no duties corresponding to his privileges?
13334Hell- born and Sharper?"
13334How dare you think_ that_ when my leg is asleep?"
13334How does that strike you as evidence of exemplary habits?
13334How is the weather?"
13334How, when, where should I read your ghost story?"
13334I flamed out, indignantly rising;"you intimate that Thurston is a coward-- and in his absence?"
13334I never had much acquaintance with him,--but do you suppose he has recognized me?
13334In what way does the pleasure that I get, or might get, from your work depend on me?"
13334In what way was it dangerous, if in any way?
13334Is woman weak?
13334It is not, I am sure, his-- do you know any good noun corresponding to the adjective"handsome"?
13334Lieutenant Price,"--this to an officer of his own battery, who had ridden up in time to hear the order--"the general''s meaning is clear, is it not?"
13334Or are the Armisteds opposed to''the unwritten law''?"
13334PARKER ADDERSON, PHILOSOPHER"Prisoner, what is your name?"
13334Presently the Governor lifted his eyes from the pencil, which had resumed its tapping, and said:"Who is she?"
13334Presently the captain spoke, slowly and with apparent effort:"On the next ridge, did you say, sir?
13334Ransome?
13334Shall I tell a truth which, discrediting my courage, will have the effect of a lie?
13334So long as he advances, the line will not fire-- why should it?
13334THE AFFAIR AT COULTER''S NOTCH"Do you think, Colonel, that your brave Coulter would like to put one of his guns in here?"
13334The man addressed as Marsh winced a trifle, then asked with a smile:"What conditions?
13334The order is imperative?"
13334Turning to his adjutant- general he said,"Did you observe Coulter''s damned reluctance to obey orders?"
13334Was it a constrictor?
13334Was it fear?
13334Was it venomous?
13334Was there anybody on the horse?"
13334What can I do, sir?"
13334What could I do?
13334What do you say to a tour in Europe?"
13334What good or bad angel came in a dream to rouse him from his state of crime, who shall say?
13334What more could I wish?
13334What mout it be, neighbor?"
13334What, indeed, could the officer have done, being no surgeon and having no water?
13334What, then, shall I do?
13334Where is the charm of it all?
13334Who and what is he?"
13334Who-- what had waked him, and where was it?
13334Why do I tell you all this, dear?
13334Why should he-- in the darkness?
13334Why should it have made a record which there was none to observe?
13334Would one exception have marred too much the pitiless perfection of the divine, eternal plan?
13334_ you_?"
13334did I not tell you that Jarette would kill him?"
13334do you mean to go to your death with nothing but jokes upon your lips?
13334he added,"how did this thing get in here?"
13334he exclaimed aloud,"what have they to do with it?"
13334shouted Private Grayrock, peremptorily as in duty bound, backing up the command with the sharp metallic snap of his cocking rifle--"who goes there?"
13334the Governor was saying in evident surprise--"you too want a military commission?
13334what should a light be doing there?"
13334will he never stop going up?"
13334you have known me all along?"
13334you recognize me?
13124''What, do you wish to insult me?'' 13124 And who is to be married, pray?"
13124Captain Gary, did your men use any rails?
13124Dem who?
13124Did you ever know who stole your biscuits that night at Frederick City?
13124Did you have them put back?
13124Did you have them replaced?
13124Did your men take any rails?
13124Do n''t you know that I am not going to give you information that will be of any service to you?
13124Do you not know that all papers are considered at nine o''clock A.M.?
13124Do you think to frighten or intimidate me by burning my house that I will tell what I choose to conceal? 13124 Got furloughs?"
13124Has there been a stampede?
13124Hello, boys, when did you get back? 13124 How did you find all?"
13124How long were you in the water, Jim?
13124Is dat so?
13124Licking, h----l,said the wounded Major,"who could fight such people?
13124Lost your swords in a fight?
13124Was the water cold?
13124Well, look er here,said Jack, looking suspiciously around at the soldiers;"who you people be, nohow?"
13124Well, well, is you dem?
13124Well, what in the world were you thinking so deeply about that you were lost to every other environment?
13124What brigade?
13124What division?
13124What is the trouble?
13124What was the force that came out to attack you? 13124 What would a man want to put flour down in a straw stack for when no one knew of''Lee''s coming?''"
13124Where are your men?
13124Where was Lee?
13124Where was he going?
13124Where was he?
13124Why do you bring me this paper to sign this time of day?
13124Why in the h----l do n''t you come on with the biscuits, Jess?
13124You do n''t say so?
13124*****"DID THE NEGROES WISH FREEDOM?"
13124A great problem now presented itself to the Confederate authorities for solution, but who could cut the Gordion knot?
13124All the consolation he got was"how deep was the water,''Mucus''?"
13124And what caused it?
13124And what must have been the feelings of the troops that were to receive this mighty shock of battle?
13124Are n''t you the chap that torn my coat sometime ago?
13124Are the Yankees smart enough to catch the stars?"
13124But what is death to the soldier?
13124But where are the South''s dead?
13124But who was"to bell the cat?"
13124Desert my comrades; betray the country I have sworn to defend; leave the flag under whose folds I have lost all but life?
13124Did any of the soldiers long for home or the opening of the next campaign?
13124Did the frozen ground cut our feet through our raw- hide moccasins?
13124Did the men murmur or complain?
13124Did the soldiers of the South believe as yet that they were beaten?
13124Did we feel the cold?
13124Do n''t you know your old friend Webster?"
13124Do you call that fighting?
13124Do you think I care so much for my house and its belongings?
13124Does it look possible at this late day that a cause so just and righteous could fail, with such men and women to defend it?
13124Echo answers from every hill and dale, from every home where orphan and widow weep and mourn,"Where?"
13124General Hartranft, of Ninth Corps, says in answer to the question"Driven out?"
13124Gentle reader, were you ever, as you thought, at death''s door, when the grim monster was facing you, when life looked indeed a very brief span?
13124Great Scotts, John, are you gone crazy?
13124Had they grown disheartened and demoralized by their defeat at Knoxville, or had they lost their old- time confidence in themselves and their General?
13124Had we been betrayed?
13124He answered the question"how deep was the water?"
13124He said,"But where do the officers sleep?"
13124He spoke to the soldier, saying:"Who is that?"
13124He then said,"Do n''t you know that I know you are telling a d----d lie?"
13124He was asked:"What command do you belong to?"
13124How many of these noble souls died that their country might be free?
13124How shall I avoid thee?
13124How was it with the South?
13124I ask again was there ever before such troops as those of the South?
13124I repeat it, was there ever an assaulting column better braced or supported?
13124I said to William,"What can you do?"
13124I see you have two stars; are you a Brigadier General?"
13124Insult-- was it?
13124Is the lion so far back in his lair as not to feel the prods of his tormentors?
13124Lincoln called for 300,000 more troops, and the same question was asked at the South,"Where will he get them and how pay them?"
13124Make them?"
13124Now the question naturally arises, had he gone on his regular duties would the circumstances have been different?
13124Now will any reader of this question the fact that Longstreet''s men suffered any great hardships, isolated as they were from the outside world?
13124Should he recognize me, then what?
13124Someone asked the colored waiter,"What was that noise?"
13124The Adjutant knew that his education was defective and said,"What did you say, Joe?"
13124The Colonel said:"Do n''t you know the Yankees are between the pickets and the breastworks, and will soon attack our whole line?"
13124The days of knight- errantry had their decadence; may not the days of the South''s chivalry have theirs?
13124The force that was exposed in the open?"
13124The lass asked me, with some feeling of scorn,"Is the boat yours?"
13124The seconds call out in calm, deliberate tones:"Gentlemen, are you ready?"
13124The soldier replied, not recognizing the Colonel''s voice:"Who in the h----l are you?"
13124Then scratching his head musingly, Jack said at last,"I don know''bout dat-- what you gwine do wid me, anyhow; what yer want?"
13124Then something like the following colloquy took place:"Well, Mack, what is the news from home?"
13124These were the encouraging messages Generals Beauregard and Hardee were receiving, but where were the troops to accomplish such work?
13124This was too much for Sim Price, and he said,"Good God, John Duckett, are you shooting at the moon?"
13124To the question,"Which were the best troops from the South?"
13124Was it any wonder that so many hundreds, nay thousands, of these Goths failed to answer to Sherman''s last roll call?
13124Was it for the superior gallantry of the enemy''s troops or the superior Generalship of their adversary?
13124Was there ever elsewhere on earth such women?
13124Was there ever such blind faith or dogged tenacity of purpose?
13124We gained an unparalleled prestige for courage, but are the people to- day better morally, socially, and politically?
13124We gained the shadow; have we the substance?
13124Were the ladies refugeeing-- getting out of harm''s way?
13124Were there ever before such people as those of the Southland?
13124Were there ever such patriotic fathers, such Christian mothers, such brave and heroic sons and daughters?
13124Were we ashamed?
13124What about the four cannons blown up?
13124What did such men of the South have to fight for-- no negroes, no property, not even a home that they could call their own?
13124What is the matter with you?"
13124What was it that caused them to make such sacrifices-- to even give their lives to the cause?
13124What were the Confederate losses during the war?
13124What''s the news at home?"
13124When the South would talk of resistance, the North would ask,"Where are her soldiers?"
13124Where are the Confederate dead?
13124Which State lost the most soldiers in proportion to the number furnished the war?
13124Who commands this company?"
13124Who is it that has ever looked upon a battlefield and could forget the sickening scene, or obliterate from his mind the memory of its dreaded sight?
13124Who of us are prepared to say whether this was mere chance, or that the bolt was guided and directed by an invisible hand?
13124Who were to blame?
13124Who would drink first?
13124Who would think of baking bread on a ram- rod?
13124Why is it that memory takes us away back into our past experiences without as much saying,"With your leave, sir"?
13124Will God, in His wisdom, ever have cause to again create such women as those of the Southland?
13124Will the fleet accept the gauge of battle?
13124Will the fleet attempt the succor of their struggling comrades?
13124Will there ever again exist circumstances and conditions that will require such heroism, fortitude, and suffering?
13124Will there ever be again?
13124Will they dare to run the gauntlet of the heavy dahlgreen guns that line the channel sides?
13124With fear and trembling he pointed to the brilliant light and said:"Do n''t you see''em yonder?
13124With such a people to contend, with such heroes to face in the field, was it any wonder that the North began to despair of ever conquering the South?
13124Would we be reported and our tents searched next day?
13124You think I can wait out here naked and freeze?"
13124You want er kill er nudder nigger, do n''t you?"
13124or is his apathy or contempt too great to be aroused from his slumber by such feeble blows?
13124or with what spell Dissolve the enchantment of thy magic cell?
13124the name of her people great?
31771Ai n''t them nice?
31771Are there any vacancies in your non- commissioned officers?
31771But what made ye lug all that water in here? 31771 But what''ll we wear while they''re dryin''?"
31771But, say, ai n''t that a nice girl out there?
31771D''ye reckon a bullet''d go through this''ere stump?
31771D''ye s''pose,he said to Shorty,"that there''s any more of''em on me?"
31771D- d- did it hit ye, Sh- Shorty?
31771Did ye hear him squeal?
31771Do n''t you know your right shoulder?
31771Does Corprils have to do that sort o''thing?
31771Feels that way,said Si;"but how about the bilin''?
31771Good morning, stranger,said the officer,"have you any corn on your place?"
31771HELLO Si; goin''for a soljer, ai n''t ye?
31771Had n''t we better pile some rocks on''em, Shorty?
31771Have I got to eat such stuff as that?
31771Hello, Si,said Shorty;"whar ye bin?
31771Here, why do n''t you git a move on them wagons?
31771How d''ye like it as far as you''ve got, any way?

31771How''re we going to git''em dry?
31771How''re ye gittin''on, Shorty?
31771I say, Captain, do n''t they never have resting spells in the army?
31771I say, old lady,said he, turning to the female of whom he had bought it,"is these pies pegged or sewed?"
31771I say, there, how''s all the folks to home?
31771I suppose,continued the Captain,"you would like to know the scientific name?"
31771Jiminy, do n''t that smell good?
31771Looks''s if they wuz all mendin''up their shirts and sewin''on buttons,said Si,"Guess it''s part o''their regular drill, ai n''t it, Shorty?"
31771May I bring Shorty-- he''s my pard--''long with me?
31771Purty big name fer such a leetle bug, ai n''t it, Perfessor?
31771Purty good load, was n''t it, Si?
31771Recollect that big two fister from Kokomo who said he''d knock your head off if you ever throwed that up to him again?
31771S''posen the Colonel sh''d take a notion to go pokin''down into them knapsacks,said Si;"do n''t ye think it''d be purty cold weather for us?"
31771Say, Si,remarked Shorty, thoughtfully,"had n''t we better write a letter home?
31771Say, old pard,asked Si as his wagon drove past,"is there any rebs''round here?"
31771Shall I take my gun and bay''net along?
31771Shorty,said he,"see them hives over there?
31771Shorty?
31771Si,said Shorty to his chum as they sat on a log beside the dying embers,"how d''ye like soldierin'', as fur as ye''ve got?"
31771Suppose, now, I was a rebel in disguise,said the Captain,"what kind of a fix would you be in?"
31771That was a mighty tough pull, was n''t it?
31771There, d''ye hear that?
31771Want any help?
31771Was that what ye went to see the Cap''n''bout?
31771We ort n''t to leave the post, ort we?
31771Well, Si, what does she say?
31771Whar''s yer honey?
31771What are these grooves along each side for?
31771What company do you belong to?
31771What did ye tell him the countersign for?
31771What does who say?
31771What in the world does he mean by p''leecin''the camp?
31771What rigiment is this?
31771What ye goin''to do with that?
31771What''d he tell ye?
31771What''n name of all the prophets''s them fellers up to?
31771What''n the world does ha mean?
31771What''s the use of bein''a Corporil,he said to himself,"if it do n''t give a feller a chance to play off once in a while?"
31771What''s up?
31771Where''s all yer sand ye brag so much about?
31771Who comes there?
31771Who''s afeard?
31771Why did n''t the Cap''n tell me it was that? 31771 Why in thunder do n''t the Colonel send out a detail to find and bury that dead mule?
31771Why, what''s the matter?
31771Whydn''t the Ord''ly say last night there''d be guard- mountin''at 9 o''clock this mornin''? 31771 You blab- mouthed son of a thief,"he shouted at the Wagon Master,"what are you ordering my men around for?
31771You order me?
31771You young rascal, is this the way you get dinner for your comrades? 31771 As they sang,Are there no foes for me to face?"
31771But that was a smart trick o''her''n, was n''t it?"
31771Do n''t you remember how careful your mother is to scald her milk pans?"
31771Great Scott, Shorty, is that a louse?"
31771He hain''t got the countersign; shall I pass him?"
31771He remarked to Shorty one day:"I wonder where all this pork comes from?"
31771How about that rosy- cheeked girl up in Posey County?"
31771How''d ye like to have some honey for supper?"
31771I presume when you were a little shaver your mother now and then harrowed your head with a fine- tooth comb?"
31771Is it hard to learn?"
31771Is this the way you attend to the duty for which you''re detailed?
31771Jest look at me and see what short rations''ll bring you to?"
31771Klegg?"
31771Say, Shorty, how d''ye feel, any way?"
31771Say, Shorty, ye did n''t write home anything''bout our havin''graybacks, did ye?"
31771Say, what rijiment did you b''long to?"
31771See him, out there in the bush?"
31771Shorty, ai n''t this ground lumpy?
31771Shorty, while all this was going on?
31771Si?

31771Si?"

31771inquired Si,"how does a Wagon Master rank?
31771lay a regiment of wild Michigan veterans, who struck up, following the strains of the bugles: Say, oh Dutch''y, will ye fight mit Si- gel?
31771swore the Colonel in the classic he used when excited,"am I niver to have a dacint inspection?
31771what''s the matter?
20460All Union people, I suppose?
20460Are you quite sure Mrs. Hobart said''egad,''Colonel?
20460Beg pardon, madam, is this the direct road to Shallow Ford?
20460Black square? 20460 Bless your sowl, Captain, and do you think I had nothing to do but to watch the boys?
20460But, Corporal,inquired Captain Hunter,"what were the other soldiers of your company doing all this time?"
20460Do they miss me at home; do they miss me?
20460Do you recollect a stroll down to the bay shore one moonlight night?
20460Goin''home on furlough, eh?
20460Hell,shouted Buckner,"does de Capin''spose I''m guiane to eat wid a d-- n common nigger?
20460How do you form an oblique square, sir?
20460How is that, Parson,said Davis, affecting to misunderstand him;"not worth a damn there?"
20460Indeed,said the Captain;"what about Chattanooga?"
20460Is he a loyal man?
20460Is he secesh?
20460Mary Patterson?
20460Never pay the Lord?
20460Thou, thou reignest in this bosom, There, there hast thou thy throne; Thou, thou knowest that I love thee; Am I not fondly thine own? 20460 Tom, you scoundrel, how dare you slander the white man in that way?"
20460Well,he continued,"you are a general now, are you?"
20460What are a th- thousand men,said he,"when( hic) principle is at stake?
20460What can you do? 20460 What do you say, gentlemen, to a second lieutenancy for General Beatty''s friend?"
20460What do you want to go church for, CÃ ¦ sar?
20460What is your master''s name?
20460What kind of light,he will ask,"is that kind which is the opposite of heavy?"
20460What time?
20460Where did you learn to cook?
20460Where do you all come from?
20460Where is the officer of the day?
20460Who comes there?
20460Why so, CÃ ¦ sar?
20460Why you are a fool, John; did you suppose I wanted you to make me tea out of tobacco?
20460Why, how is that?
20460You have not heard that Longstreet was defeated at Knoxville, and compelled to fall back with heavy loss?
20460You have not heard, then, that Bragg was whipped; lost sixty pieces of artillery and many thousand men?
20460You knew General Patterson?
20460A room?
20460A voice came out of the darkness, asking,"who are you?"
20460Am I not fondly thine own?
20460Are they friends or foes?
20460Are you a inviten''me to pound you over the head with a saw- log?
20460As the column approached, said one of the women to a soldier:"Is these uns Yankees?"
20460As they passed, our men made many good- natured remarks, as,"Well, boys, you''re tired of soldiering, ar''n''t you?"
20460At another time he gave an order to a soldier which was not obeyed with sufficient alacrity, when he yelled:"What regiment do you belong to?"
20460Black square?"
20460Buckner, astonished at this unceremonious intrusion, exclaimed:"What you doin''har, sah?"
20460Can you cook?"
20460Captain Mitchell called, and the boys said:"Sergeant, do n''t you know him?"
20460Colonel Marrow sought to question this same fellow in regard to the strength of the enemy, when the boy said:"Are you a commissioned officer?"
20460CÃ ¦ sar said to the Adjutant,"Massa Wilson, may I go to church?"
20460Did the new moon, which I saw so squarely over my left shoulder when riding him over Waldron''s ridge, augur this?
20460Did you ebber know a man ter get black when he''s scard, sah?
20460Do a man''s har git black when he scared, sah?
20460For sacrifice of children, wife, and friends?
20460For sacrifice of firesides-- genial homes?
20460Governor(?)
20460Had you not better cease this sort of warfare?
20460Hailing a little knot, I said:"Boys where do you live?"
20460Has he wife and children in that mountain nest?
20460Has the great experiment failed?
20460He thanks God that he is not an American; and should not we, in a spirit of conciliation, meet him half way, and feel thankful that he is not?
20460He thought the straws in his bunk were thorns, and would pluck at them with his fingers and exclaim:"My God, ai n''t they sharp?"
20460Hostler, you d-- d scoundrel, why do n''t you wipe Jerome''s nose?"
20460How comfort mother for the loss of son?
20460How do ye do?"
20460How was he dressed?
20460How were their days spent, and amongst what surroundings?
20460I approached the door and rapped, and a woman''s voice from within asked,"who was there?"
20460I asked:"Do you call this money?"
20460I asked:"Where have you been, Lieutenant?"
20460I introduced my friends to Lieutenant Van Pelt, of Loomis''battery, and Mr. House asked:"Lieutenant, will these guns shoot with any kind of decision?"
20460I said to him,"Are those our troops?"
20460I said to one,"what is your name?"
20460I told him I was not sure yet, and he said:"Is it uncertainty or modesty that makes you doubt?"
20460If the enemy is too strong for us to attack, what must be the fate of Rosecrans''four regiments, cut off from us, and struggling against such odds?
20460If the husbands, brothers, and fathers of these people, their natural leaders and guardians, do not care for them, why should we?
20460Is country naught to thee?
20460Is freedom nothing?
20460Is he a man of dogs and guns, who spends his years in the mountains and glens hunting for bear and deer?
20460Is it a pleasant home?
20460Is it not ancient Pistol come again to astonish the world by deeds of reckless daring?
20460Is it the desire for freedom, or the dislike for his overseer, that prompts him to run five miles of a Sunday to give this information?
20460Is not that rather more than a farm hand who gets but twelve dollars a month can afford to pay for boots?"
20460Keep quiet; what the h-- ll yer''bout there, now?
20460Lord, when will this war end?
20460May it not be the baronial castle of"old Leather Breeches"himself?
20460May we not hope that their darkened minds caught glimpses of the sun of a better life, now rising for them?
20460McCook is, doubtless, to blame for being hasty; but may not Buell be censurable for being slow?
20460Meeting Captain Loomis yesterday, he said:"Do you know you captured a regiment at Chaplin Hills?"
20460Naught an honored name?
20460Now we hear the yell which betokens encouraged hearts; but whose yell?
20460On last Sunday Captain Wells found him dressed very elaborately, in white vest and clean linen, and said to him:"What''s in the wind, Buckner?"
20460One day CÃ ¦ sar said to me,"Co''nel, you belongs to de meetin do n''t you?"
20460One of my companions asked,"are you Union soldiers?"
20460Poking his head into my tent, and, taking off his hat, he said:"Is de Co''nel in?"
20460Riding on a little further, a private passed without touching his cap:"Hold on, here,"said the General,"do n''t you know how to salute a superior?"
20460Said the Parson to an old man:"My friend, are you religious?"
20460Saw a man, did you?
20460Says he, Dick says he, how did they hit you so many times?
20460Shall CÃ ¦ sar be stuffed or not?
20460Shall we continue to protect the property of our enemies, and lose the lives of our friends?
20460That was a pleasant conceit of Holmes,"What did poor Katy do?"
20460The Captain said:"Sergeant, do n''t you know where you are?"
20460The General hallooed after me,"How d''ye do?"
20460The boys laughed and said:"If this is called an academy, what sort of things must their common school- houses be?"
20460The former checked up, shook hands, and said:"How d''ye do?"
20460The other day Davy had him out for exercise, and when he came rearing and charging back, I said:"How does he behave to- day, Davy?"
20460These days of marchings, nights of lonely guard?
20460They say:"You would not disturb peaceable citizens by levying contributions from them?"
20460This terrible expenditure of health and life?
20460To- night I received a bundle of Northern papers, and among others the Union(?)
20460Was he large or small?
20460What are his thoughts about the war, and its probable effects on his own fortunes, as he trudges along over the hills?
20460What balm to soothe a widow''s aching heart?
20460What balm to which her heaviest grief must yield?
20460What could I do?
20460What did you see when you came up street?
20460What hour, what gift, will ever make amends For broken health, for bruised flesh and bones, For lives cut short by bullet, blade, disease?
20460What is a room?
20460What were their thoughts, fears, hopes, acts?
20460What''s home, if in craven shame We seek its hearthstone?
20460Where balm to heal the widow''s heart, or what Shall soothe a mother''s grief for woes like these?
20460Where is the glory?
20460Where is the glory?
20460Where is the reward, For sacrifice of comfort, quiet, peace?
20460Where is the reward?
20460Where, and under what circumstances, have I heard other bands?
20460Which end of it should I take?
20460While there, a good- looking non- commissioned officer of the battery came up to me, and, extending his hand, said:"How do you do, General?"
20460Who can really know what an army is unless he mingles with the individuals who compose it, and learns how they live, think, talk, and act?
20460Who comes there?"
20460Who lived in the town of Athlone, Alone?
20460Who lives in that house?
20460Who were their associates, and on which side of the great questions of the day did they stand?
20460Who were they?
20460Why not?
20460Why should they not be as contented as himself?
20460Why, at any rate, did he not notify me of the order which he had received from the division commander?
20460Why, my lads, dinna ye march forward in order?
20460Why, when the battle was progressing so advantageously for our side, did they not go on?
20460Will the man ever come to consolidate these innumerable detachments of the National army, and then sweep through the Confederacy like a tornado?
20460Wo n''t you take a seat?"
20460Would it be regarded as an act of presumption and treated with ridicule and contempt?
20460broke in the boys;"never pay the Lord?
20460do you want me to hit you a lick over the snoot, now-- do you?
20460his wings are shorter than they were, and of what use is his head without wings?
20460who comes there?"

20460who comes there?"
38167A prominent, burning question of the day and time is that of woman suffrage, and why not give them the right to vote?
38167Can any person now living even speculate?
38167Did she not, by means of her persuasive arguments, induce, through mother Eve, the father of men, Adam, to eat of the forbidden fruit?
38167If things are such in this, the twentieth century of the Christian era, what may the next one show forth to the eyes and imaginations of mortals?
38167Is there anything in my conduct here displeasing to you?
38167Now what is it that a good smart woman can not accomplish?
38167Now who can safely foretell what may happen within the next half century?
38167Or did they shirk their duty to their country so very adroitly that they hate to be reminded of it?
38167Perkins replied, sir, do I perform my duty satisfactorily to your house?
38167Well, then, as I was also born in Accomack, does not that make us cousins?
37112''What is the matter?'' 37112 But did you not feel bad at robbing the kind officer who employed you?"
37112But how could Kent prevent Harry''s being wounded or hurt, Martha?
37112Good Heavens, Madam,he replied,"have you been so long out of the Union that you have forgotten Washington''s birthday?"
37112Oh,I said,"he is courting, is he?
37112What of Kent?
37112Where is the man of the house?
37112Who was Tay?
37112Who was Tay?
37112Why, where do you come from?
37112Again she asked,"You got the measles?"
37112And, turning to our mother, he said:"Please, ma''am, I would like a week at home to marry Affy, an''den ca n''t I find Mas''Harry?"
37112As he paused before a guest she would hold a lump suspended in the sugar tongs as she would say,"Green tea and black; dear, which will you have?"
37112At this the provost marshal remarked,"Madam, do you not realize the sanctity of an oath, or do you desire to take all the oaths?"
37112Colonel Rhett replied,"Who the hell are you?"
37112Has anything occurred there?"
37112He kep''us all togedder, an''you tink Kent such a fool as not to know dat, an''be happy''mong strangers?
37112I exclaimed,"are the ladies back already?"
37112I wonder who it will be?"
37112Miss J--, is it you?
37112Now, Sister Martha, which do you think the most to blame?"
37112She called out,"You got smallpox?"
37112The next thing I knew I was being dragged by the feet, and heard some one say,"What are you going to do with that dead man?"
37112What are you doing straggling from your command?
37112What is the matter?
37112What would she have thought of electric lights?
37112Where are our men?"
37112exclaimed our eldest sister;"pick up that chair; do n''t you see mother is faint?"
37112how is your mother?"
13202Ai n''t your name Sam?
13202Are they spies?
13202Can anybody tell me whar them Yanks are? 13202 Did you ever look?"
13202Did you have horns, Uncle Zack?
13202Hello, Lee, what does Cleburne say the Yankees are doing at Jonesboro?
13202Hello,says Hood,"Whar in the Dickens and Tom Walker are them Yanks, hey?
13202How do you know then?
13202How do you sell it?
13202How much is your fish worth?
13202Lee, ask Cleburne if he feels feinty? 13202 Now, where are you, Johnny Reb?
13202WHAT IS THIS REBEL DOING HERE?
13202Well, Uncle Zack, what sort of a looking lamb were you?
13202Well, after you got to heaven, what did you do then?
13202Well, how often did they shear the lambs, Uncle Zack?
13202Well, sir, that''s too thin; why did you not get a pass?
13202Well, what color were the lambs, Uncle Zack?
13202Were there no old rams or ewes among them?
13202What command do you belong to, sir?
13202What is it, boss?
13202What is that you say?
13202What is the matter? 13202 What regiment are you from?"
13202What regiment do you belong to?
13202What regiment is your detail from?
13202What''s the matter now?
13202What?
13202You are whipped, are n''t you?
13202200, are you?"
13202200?"
13202AM PROMOTED"Why, hello, corporal, where did you get those two yellow stripes from on your arm?"
13202After the fighting was over, where, O where, was all the fine rigging heretofore on our officers?
13202Ah, ha, have you stacked your arms for a surrender?"
13202Am I mistaken?
13202And then to hear some fellow ask,"Why ai n''t you with them, then, you cowardly puppy?
13202And what wonder that General Bragg''s name became a terror to deserters and evil doers?
13202Any news or letters that you wish carried home?
13202Approaching Sergeant A. S. Horsley, he said,"Vy ish you got nodings mit your knapsack?
13202Are we going to be captured?
13202Are we worthy to be called the sons of old Maury county?
13202As soon as he saw me, he said,"Who have you there-- a prisoner, or a deserter?"
13202Ask him how a fellow feels when he feints?"
13202BATTLE OF RESACCA Well, you want to hear about shooting and banging, now, gentle reader, do n''t you?
13202Did I see my comrades buried and see the violet and wild flowers bloom over their graves?
13202Did I see our country laid waste and in ruins?
13202Did I see soldiers marching, the earth trembling and jarring beneath their measured tread?
13202Did I see the flag of my country, that I had followed so long, furled to be no more unfurled forever?
13202Did I see the ruins of smouldering cities and deserted homes?
13202Did I see those brave and noble countrymen of mine laid low in death and weltering in their blood?
13202Did my eyes deceive me?
13202Do you recollect in that year, for the first time in your life, of hearing Dixie and the Bonnie Blue Flag?
13202Do you think we can take them?
13202Does He who noteth the sparrow''s fall, and numbers the hairs of our heads, have any interest in one like ourselves?
13202EATING MUSSELS Reader, did you ever eat a mussel?
13202EIGHTEEN HUNDRED AND SIXTY- ONE Reader mine, did you live in that stormy period?
13202Every man I met had a furlough; in fact, it seemed to have the very double- extract of romance about it--"fur too, eh?"
13202Every one who passed would be hailed with,"Well, what news from the front?"
13202Finally, he closed the book with a slam and started off, and said I,"Did you want to find out my name?"
13202From what command?
13202Hans, vat fer ish dot shooting mit mein left wing?
13202Happening to catch sight of me, he asked,"What is this Rebel doing here?"
13202He had no nerves, or rather, has a rock or tree any nerves?
13202He rode on down the road toward me, and when he had approached,"Who goes there?"
13202He took Alf''s knapsack and on opening it, what do you suppose was in it?
13202Here is a sample of the colloquy that followed:"Mister, have some butter?"
13202Here was the field, and here were the roastingears; but where was the raft or canoe?
13202How many of those 120 original members are with the company today?
13202How much more valuable are we than many sparrows?
13202I asked several other fellows what in the dickens did all this mean?
13202I asked the litter corps,"Who have you there?"
13202I could not help thinking all the time,"Ai n''t that old woman dead yet?"
13202I opened my eyes, and asked,"Who are you?"
13202I ran to the road and asked them what was the matter?
13202I said,"When?
13202I thought that I recognized the voice in the darkness-- and said I,"Who are you?"
13202I turned away and thought how long, how long will I have to witness these things?
13202I 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?"
13202I went back, and says I,"Who fired those two shots?"
13202In looking back over these pages, I ask, Where now are many whose names have appeared in these sketches?
13202In the year of our Lord eighteen hundred and sixty- one, do you remember those stirring times?
13202Is it a bargain?"
13202Is it true that I have seen all these things?
13202Is that some high office?
13202Is your army going to advance on us?"
13202Ish dot der Repels, Hans?
13202JOHN WHITTAKER THEN COMES THE FARCE PALMETTO JEFF DAVIS MAKES A SPEECH ARMISTICE ONLY IN NAME A SCOUT WHAT IS THIS REBEL DOING HERE?
13202John says,"Madam, do you want that dog killed, sure enough?"
13202Johnny answered,"What do you want?"
13202Meynheer Dutchman comes out; and says,"Ish dot so?
13202Not who was the best general, or colonel, or captain-- but"who ranked?"
13202Now, reader, what do you suppose that negro was doing?
13202Now, we tagged first, why do n''t you tag back?
13202Now, what became of the original 3,200?
13202Or have we fought in vain?
13202Preacher, ai n''t that old woman dead yet?"
13202Reader, I ask you who you think was to blame?
13202Reader, were you ever held in reserve of an attacking army?
13202Say, captain, say, if yet my task be done?
13202Says I,"Are you speaking to me?"
13202Says I,"Colonel Field, what''s the matter?
13202Says I,"Galbreath, what are you making a fool of yourself that way for?
13202Says I,"What is the long roll for?"
13202Says I:"Madam, how do you sell your eggs?"
13202Says he,"What''s this?
13202Stewart, 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?
13202Take off that coat and those chicken guts; coo, sheep; baa, baa, black sheep; flicker, flicker; ai n''t you ashamed of yourself?
13202That''s your plan, is it?
13202The whole army is routed and running; had n''t you better be getting away from here?
13202Then I said,"Wright, why do n''t you jump out of that wagon and run?"
13202Then you take it up to the general; the guard stops you in a very formal way, and asks,"What do you want?"
13202Then, said he,"What is your name?"
13202They answered,"Matter enough; yonder are the Yankees, are you infantry fellows going to make a stand here?"
13202To hear some of our boys ask,"What regiment is that?
13202We are not supported; what is the matter?
13202We halted but a moment, and said I,"Colonel, where are you wounded?"
13202We will get millions of dollars by robbery alone, do n''t you see?"
13202Well, Yank, why do n''t you come on and take us?
13202Well, what news?
13202Well, what was to be done?
13202Well, what''s the matter now?
13202Well, you have come here to fight us; why do n''t you come on?
13202Were they true men?
13202What are you going to do about it?
13202What could I do?
13202What could we do?
13202What do you suppose he was doing?
13202What does that mean?
13202What does this yell mean?
13202What is the matter?
13202What next?
13202What regiment is that?"
13202What was I to do?
13202What was it worth?"
13202What''s the matter?
13202What?
13202When I could hold in no longer, I laughed out, and said,"Well, Walter, what luck last night?"
13202Where are many of my old friends and comrades, whose names were so familiar at every roll call, and whose familiar"Here"is no more?
13202Where are they tonight?
13202Where were our generals?
13202Who are they?
13202Why do n''t you let us hear the cannon''s opening roar?
13202Why do n''t you rattle a few old muskets over there at us?
13202Why do n''t you unbottle your thunderbolts and dash us to pieces?
13202Why?
13202Will this pay you for your hog?"
13202Y''S YOU GOT MY HOG?
13202Yank says,"What you doing, Johnny?"
13202Yank would halloo over and say,"Well, Johnny, have you got everything across?"
13202You are going to starve us out, eh?
13202You say,"Well, General, what is the matter with it?"
13202You''ve got the dry grins, arn''t you?

22913No, what is it?
22913Shall I see you home, Azalia?
22913Should you invite him, father, if you were in my place?
22913So because he has character, and I have n''t, you give me the mitten, do you, Miss Azalia?

22913What answer can I give to those who come after me?

22913What do you know about Lieutenant Funk?
22913What do you mean, sir, by calling me a robber, traitor, and coward?

22913Are you guilty or not guilty?"
22913Are you willing to take it?"
22913But for the sake of those who respect and honor and love you, you will not give way to vice, will you?
22913But how could he leave his home, his mother, his friends, his school, the choir, Azalia, Daphne, Hans, and give up the dear associations of the place?
22913But ought he not to turn back?
22913But shall we never, never see them again?
22913But why should he be afraid?
22913But would it not be glorious to succeed,--to triumph over Miss Dobb?
22913Can it be that you are here?"
22913Could he carry it through?
22913Could he meet death face to face?
22913Did the bad fellow hurt the dear little Trippee?"
22913Got what?"
22913He rose from his seat, and said aloud,"Brother Quaver, will you pitch a tune?"
22913He would try; but as he was there, ought he not to improve the opportunity to find out all about the camp, how large it was, how many men there were?
22913His sister Fanny pointed her finger at him; and Paul heard her whisper to one of the girls,"Did you ever see such a monkey?"
22913How are you, Old Pensioner?
22913How could he abuse such confidence as she had given him?
22913How could he be at peace?
22913How could he bear it?
22913How could he establish his innocence?
22913How could he go and wear his grandfather''s coat?
22913How do you like being hung up by the heels?
22913How ease the pain?
22913How help him,--how relieve his sufferings and hardships?
22913How remove all suspicion?
22913How, then, could she mourn for him?
22913If I had been afraid, I should have missed him, perhaps; I made up my mind to kill him, and what was the use of being afraid?"
22913It was very kind in Daphne to invite him, and ought he not to accept her invitation?
22913Judge Adams came, and with much emotion asked,"What can I do for you?"
22913May I ask what you see to laugh at?"
22913Mr. Surplice say?
22913Mr. Surplice, Judge Adams, Colonel Dare, and all the good folks looked upon him as a thief, what was the use of trying to rise?
22913On his way home the thought uppermost in his mind was,"What will mother say?"
22913Ought he not to be one of the seventy- five thousand?
22913Ought he to resign his position as leader of the choir?
22913Philip Funk is at the bottom, is he?"
22913Philip heard her and said,"Is n''t there a fellow who sometimes helps Mr. Chrome paint wagons?"
22913Says she,''Do you want to go, Paul?''
22913So he was sailing on, and the question would come up, Whither?
22913The President had called for men to help raise the flag once more upon the walls of Sumter; could he leave his home, his mother, his friends?
22913The question came up in parish meeting, whether the school should join the choir?
22913The thought often came,"What would Daphne or Azalia say if they knew how chicken- hearted I am?"
22913Then he shears pups besides robbing bee- hives, does he?"
22913Then there came to him the words of the psalm sung on Sunday,--"My times are in thy hand, Why should I doubt or fear?
22913Was it not the coming on of death?
22913Was not the path of duty, although it might lead to death, the only path of safety?
22913Was this all of life?
22913Were not all who have died for liberty, justice, truth, and right calling upon him to do his duty?
22913Were not the oppressed everywhere looking to him?
22913What answer can I give them if I falter?"
22913What answer can I give them if I falter?"
22913What answer could he give to the millions yet to be, if in his old age they were to question him as to what part he bore in the great struggle?
22913What are ye up to?"
22913What can I do for you?"
22913What could he do?
22913What could it mean?
22913What could she do to comfort him?
22913What could she do?
22913What do ye think he will do to you when he finds that you have hung one of his scouts?"
22913What excuse could he offer if he stayed away?
22913What has happened?"
22913What if he did nothing?
22913What if he should fall in battle?
22913What part should he take in the contest?
22913What right has he to thrust himself into good company, wearing his grandfather''s old clothes?"
22913What sacrifices had she made?
22913What should he do?
22913What should he do?
22913What should he do?
22913What use was it to live, with his good name gone, and all the future a blank?
22913What would Azalia think?
22913What would become of liberty, justice, truth, and right?
22913What would become of the country?
22913What would everybody say?
22913What would his mother say?
22913What would the President do?
22913What''s here?
22913Who be ye?
22913Who comes there?"
22913Who comes there?"
22913Who did it?
22913Who goes there?"
22913Why not ask Daphne to help?
22913Why not ask all the girls to do something?
22913Why not jump in and let the swollen current bear him away?
22913Why tell her?
22913Why, then, should she complain if the kind Father had seen fit to do the same?
22913Would it not be better to keep the matter to himself?
22913Would it not be worth while to aid in overcoming evil, in establishing law and order,--to inculcate a love of virtue, truth, and honor?
22913Would not God take care of him?
22913Would not his grandfather, if alive, point to the old gun, and say,"Go, Paul, your country calls you?"
22913Would she not think it a slight if he did not go?
22913Would the people resent the insult which South Carolina had given to the flag?
22913You can afford to, ca n''t you?"
22913You would not have me falter, would you, Azalia?"
22913blue bellie, ye are alive, are ye?
22913down the chimney; how we ran out to see about it; how I asked him''Where?''
22913or should he retain it?
22913what are you up to?"
22913what is this?"
26725Ai n''t I the keridge driver?
26725Ai n''t you see''none?
26725Ai n''t your name Mr. Billy Johnson?

26725Did you ever see anybody die?
26725Did you look in here?
26725Did you see that other fellow?
26725Do n''t you know where they are?
26725Do n''t you know?
26725Do you know him?
26725Do you know where any are?
26725Do you know where any graves is?--Yankee graves?
26725Do you reckon they are hunting for us?
26725Do you think it will do, Balla?
26725Does y''all know Billy Johnson?
26725Does your mother know you''re out?
26725Down on the river?--a cave? 26725 Frank, are n''t you mighty sorry?"
26725Frank, suppose they take us for Yankees?
26725Have you got them safe?
26725Hello, boys, what luck?
26725Hello, old man,''s''at you? 26725 Hi, Mistis,"broke in Uncle Balla,"whar is I got to go?

26725How do you know?
26725How long ago? 26725 How many are there?"
26725How was he dressed? 26725 How would it do to bury it in the garden?"
26725How''s pa-- and ma?
26725How''s your ma?
26725How? 26725 Hullo, bud, going to jine the cavalry?"
26725I wonder if those boys is thinkin''''bout shootin''me?
26725I wonder whose boys they is?
26725I''ll get you some,--don''t you know me? 26725 Is any of your parents ever-- ever been in a asylum?"
26725Is he dead?
26725Is he dead?
26725Is n''t there a garret?
26725Is she poorly much?
26725Is--? 26725 It''s like hunting wild boars, is n''t it?"
26725Jes''come down the road a little piece, will you?
26725Let me get up, Sergeant,--hic-- don''t you heah the roll- call?--the tent''s mighty dark; what you fool me in here for?

26725Oh, Hugh, is it still very painful?
26725Oh, well, I''m_ gwi''_ do it; ai n''t you hear me say I''m gwine do it?
26725That''s so; you might bury it under the floor of the smoke- house?
26725The garden has n''t got a roof to it, has it, Unc''Balla?
26725They are at our Robber''s Cave, are n''t they, Cousin Belle? 26725 Tim, is these two boys crazy?"
26725Unc''Balla, where are your horses?
26725Uncle Balla, s''pose he gets well, wo n''t he get out?
26725We are just going to eat our lunch,said Frank;"wo n''t you join us?"
26725We''ll catch him and lock him up; suppose he''s got a pistol? 26725 Well, if you ai n''t a d''serter, what you doin''outn the army?"
26725Well, where have you hid those horses? 26725 Well, you ketched him, did n''t you?

26725What are you blowing- that horn for?
26725What did he do to you?
26725What do you want with him?
26725What do you want?

26725Where are you goin''get it, Frank?
26725Where do you belong?
26725Where have you been all this time? 26725 Where have you been?"
26725Where in the world is my hat?
26725Where is it, Balla? 26725 Where is the best place to put that?"
26725Where was it? 26725 Where was your son killed, ma''am?
26725Where were you wounded? 26725 Where''s Cousin Belle?"
26725Where''s Frank?

26725Which way?
26725Who is y''all?
26725Who said he was?
26725Who''s with him, Lucy Ann?
26725Who? 26725 Who?--me?"
26725Why did you not go yourself?
26725Why do n''t_ you_ go in the army?
26725Why, Billy, what in thunder----? 26725 Whyn''t they go whar they knows deserters_ is_?"
26725Will they be here to- night?
26725Will they hurt me if they hit me?
26725Willy, is that you?
26725With what?
26725Wo n''t Hugh and the General think we are enemies trying to surround them?
26725Wo n''t you come home with us? 26725 Wo n''t you get down?
26725Yes, where''s Willy?
26725You ai n''t never had a horse get through the roof before, have you?
26725You ain''''fraid, is you? 26725 You feel better now?"
26725You hear that?
26725You saw''em, did n''t you, Willy?
26725You say she ran?
26725You seen any?
26725You_ sure_ you do n''t know him? 26725 Your_ what_?
26725Ai n''t it, Unc''Balla?"
26725Ai n''t it, Willy?"
26725And, in a moment, they heard the General''s astonished and somewhat stern reply:"Mills, what are you doing here?
26725Are you trying to capture us?"
26725Boys, ai n''t you got better sense''n that?"
26725But where are you going?"
26725Did you expect anything else?"
26725Do you know that he was killed?"
26725Do you think they are ours?"
26725Do you think we''d have touched a hair of your head-- and you such a brave little fellow?
26725Here, Campbell, take this horse, will you?"
26725How in the world did you get away?"
26725How many?
26725Huntin''d''serters agin?"
26725Is he done got away?"
26725Is he done kill de chickens?
26725Is it sore now?"
26725Is----?"
26725Let me see what I gwi''do wid you?"
26725Mister, ken y''all teck me''long with you when you go?"
26725Somebody fox- hunting?--or is it a dinner- horn?"
26725Still he ventured one more question:"Had n''t you better take the hens out?"
26725They told him they had not shot anything; that the squirrels had been given to them; and then both boys inquired:"You all hunting for deserters?"
26725To do so would prove him but a novice; would n''t it, Willy?"
26725We told the General yesterday how to get there, did n''t we?"
26725What are they doing?"
26725What are you boys doing here?
26725What do you mean?"
26725What do you want?"
26725What gentleman?"
26725What is it?"
26725What luck y''all had?"
26725What sort of man was he?"
26725What you reckon I wan''tell you lie for?
26725What''s the matter?"
26725When?
26725Where are you going in such a hurry, my young man?"
26725Where was it?
26725Which way did he go,--and how long has it been?"
26725Who say I ai n''t?"
26725Who was he?"
26725Who''s with you?
26725Why do n''t_ I_ go in the army?"
26725Wo n''t they shoot us?"
26725You didn''think I warn''t in the army, did you?"
26725is you shoot him?"
26725it''s nobody but me; do n''t you know me?"
26725warn''t she''fred they''ll be kilt, too?"
38173Affairs: Fort Smith, Arkansas TROUBLE BREWING AMONG THE CHEROKEES WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
38173After treating with these, I returned by Fort Arbuckle, and before reaching there, met a nephew of Mr. Ross, and a Captain[ Keld?
38173Evan Jones''connected with any Missionary Society and if so, what one?
38173Furthermore, what need was there for Arkansas to interest herself in the Chickasaw forts, since the Texan troops were already in possession?
38173Have you received the money,( some$ 3.000) that I asked should be sent you to pay expenses of the new Indian Councils?
38173If you had written me,_ before_, what you write now, in regard to McKusken[?
38173In answer to a question by Commissioner Sells,"How did you happen to be in this Southern Country?"
38173It was true enough, as Burroughs said, that the Federal troops had abandoned the Indian country; but against whom were the forts to be held?
38173LEEPER[?]
38173Now what is to be concluded?
38173Shall I take care of them on the faith of an appropriation?
38173So much for the contents of the treaties but what about the detailed history of their negotiation?
38173So much then for the location of the really great tribes, but where were the lesser?
38173The President said in my presence,"Now that the Choctaws have a Delegate in Congress, what need of an Agent?"
38173What have the Indians with which to disprove this?
38173Why do you not demand his removal, and name a person for his place?
38173Why should they, if we will not bind ourselves to give them what they hazard in giving us their rights under treaties?
38173You are aware that I can not close my returns without funds for the purpose, when shall I look for them?
23340Any Reb- bils out yonder?
23340Are you pulling in there, you men?
23340At Washington, ma''am?
23340Boy,I heard him say, to a slight figure, near at hand,"boy, what are you standing there for?
23340But where were Porter''s columns?
23340By right or by conquest?
23340Can I obtain any facts from you,I continued,"as to the battle of Hanover?"
23340Can ye not watch with me one hour?
23340Can you make out his shoulder- bar?
23340Chamberlain,said Griffin,"ca n''t you save the honor of the Fifth corps?"
23340Colonel,I called to the officer in command, as the line of bayonets edged me in,"may I pass out?
23340Dear me,said Mr. Axiom,"you would ruin our circulation at a wink; what would become of our ball column?
23340Did n''t I projuce yer honor in good time, sur?
23340Did you ever make a public lecture?
23340Did you lose yer poultry?
23340Did you lose yer sheep?
23340Do her pictures look like her?
23340Do n''t the Irish make the best soldiers?
23340Do you command?
23340Doctor,said one, feebly,"I feel very cold: do you think that this is death?
23340For what?
23340Friend, have you a drop of water for a man that''s fainted here?
23340Fuh what puhpose?
23340He is going,exclaimed a private, excitedly;"where''s the man that was to try a lead on him?"
23340How did they go?
23340How do you know?
23340I wonda if dey''ll take Richmond dis yer day?
23340Is that so? 23340 Is there any reward out?"
23340Is there but one of''em?
23340Is this General M''Call?
23340Is this your house?
23340Just makin''reconnoissance,said one of the freebooters;"s''pose a feller has a right to walk around, hain''t he?"
23340Moss,he said again,"ai n''t you got no tobacco, Moss?
23340My friends,--may I say, almost my parents? 23340 News?"
23340Not unless he has a pass,said the Quartermaster;"have you written permission to leave camp?"
23340P''raps not,said the tall soldier, drily;"did you ever grub on fat pork, Miss?
23340Pray describe how Payne twisted, and whether you think Atzeroth''s neck was dislocated?
23340Sot down, honey,said the old woman, producing a wooden stool;"is you a Yankee, honey?
23340Stuart, how are you?
23340Then I am not upon the Alexandria turnpike?
23340Townsend,said Heath, as he swept the whole country with his keen eye,"do you know that we are standing upon historic ground?"
23340Townsend,said Lowe,"have you the copy of that matter you printed about me in England?
23340Under arrest? 23340 Was the rope attached to her left ear?"
23340Was we licked, do you think?
23340Were you aware of the order prohibiting correspondents from keeping with the advance?
23340What do you mean by crossed?
23340What giggling for, Bob?
23340What is it you wish, Lieutenant?
23340What is it?
23340What is the color of his coat?
23340What is the matter, my man?
23340What sort of rope was it, for example?
23340What will the girls say when they come back?
23340What''s this, Watch?
23340Where are your companies?
23340Where''s Gen. Banks? 23340 Where''s the man that wants to mutiny?"
23340Where''s your pass, bub?
23340Who are yeou?
23340Who are you?
23340Who invited you?
23340Who is it, Sergeant?
23340Who is it?
23340Who opened it?
23340Who''s thar?
23340Whose horses are these?
23340Why not?
23340You are a Northern man?
23340You knew that you had no business upon scouts, forages, or reconnoissances; why did you go?
23340Young Moss,said he,"ca nt you give a po''soul a drop o''sperits?
23340_ Would n''t_ she tell Henry? 23340 ( Pens?) 23340 A universal fear now found expression, and helpless people asked of each other, with pale lips--How far have we to walk to reach the James?"
23340Ai n''t dat so, chillen?"
23340All were looking up, and saying, in pleading monotone:"Is that you, doctor?"
23340Among the hogs, I think?"
23340And where have ye been?
23340Are yeou a rebbil?"
23340Are you going to ride over this wounded feller?"
23340Are you shot bad, Bobby?"
23340Besides, how did I know that some correspondent had not reached Washington, by way of one of the Potomac vessels, and so forestalled me?
23340But how few of the illustrious Senators, Chief Justices, Generals, etc., who draw their sustenance from the Capital, care a penny to decorate it?
23340But what were the circumstances?
23340Can Mr. Davis visit it, and pray as he does so devoutly afterward?
23340Cause why?
23340Compare this with Chancellorsville, Williamsburg, the Wilderness, Bull Run, and what shall we say?
23340Did you ever gnaw yer hard tack after a spell o''sickness, and a ten- hour march?
23340Directly Gen. Hartsuff returned, and the forager rose, with a grim smile about his mouth--"Hartsuff, God bless you, how- de- do?"
23340Do n''t you s''pose he''ll prent it all?"
23340Do you remember the thrilling chapter of"The Jew''s last night alive,"in"Oliver Twist?"
23340Does you want you fauchun told by de ole''oman?"
23340Has any battle so successful ever been fought in Virginia?
23340Has the attack succeeded?"
23340Have anymore of our boys been hurt that you know of?"
23340He relapsed again for a few minutes, when he continued:"You do n''t like fellers to bag yer poultry and sheep, do you?"
23340Hey, Ike?"
23340How many days or hours would have here sufficed to annihilate all the races of men?
23340How was I, so dismounted, to reach the distant river?
23340How''s that, Ike?
23340I believe you have telegraphed up to a House instrument, have n''t you?"
23340I saw a jail in Florence, and it troubled me; who in that beautiful city could do a crime?
23340If they had a been, why wa''n''t they on hand to save my regiment, and the New Jersey brigade?"
23340Is it harsh to say that artists have been too well rewarded, and thinkers and writers too ill?
23340Is not this work for gratulation?
23340Is that so, boys?"
23340Is there nothing over all?
23340It is an encomium in America, to say that a man"Can keep a hotel,"but what shall be said of the man who can keep a hotel in war- time?
23340It never rains but it pours, does it?"
23340It''s a sad thing to know that one''s children died enemies, is n''t it?
23340Massar, is your family from ole Virginny?"
23340Mother, where is the gruel you made for him?"
23340No?
23340No?
23340No?
23340Not any?
23340On the way from the field to the hospital he wandered in mind at times, crying out,"Captain Weaver how is that line?
23340One may be passing for a young duke, or tourist, or clergyman, or what not?
23340One of your military friends?
23340Pardner, is there water over there?"
23340Richmond had cost them half a million of lives, a mountain of blood and wealth, four years of deadly struggle; would they not complete its ruin?
23340Rough recognitions would ensue, as thus:--"Bobby, is that you, back there?--Bobby Baker?"
23340Shall I take my cigar at the Spotswood on Sunday fortnight?"
23340Shall the North be victorious in the next battle?
23340Shall we ever make Washington the representative Capital of the country?
23340She asked me, wistfully:"Masser, how fur to de nawf?"
23340The deplorable results?
23340The question at once occurred to me: Can I stand fire?
23340Townsend,"said he, smilingly,"back already?
23340Townsend?"
23340Was I in a hostile country, surrounded by thousands of armed men?
23340Was n''t I the boy to make the keers?"
23340Was this, in fact, revolution, and were these simple country girls and their lovers revolutionists?
23340We had met the enemy; were they to be ours?
23340We must a killed a thousand or two of''em, do n''t you think so, Adjutant?
23340Were the incidents of this evening portions of an historic era, and the ground about me to be commemorated by bloodshed?
23340Were we to retreat one hundred miles down the hostile Peninsula,--a battle at every rod, a grave at every footstep?
23340What capital had I for this essay?
23340What do you think, pardner?
23340What do you wish?"
23340What in---- do you want?"
23340What regrets for good resolves unfulfilled, and remorse for years misspent, made hideous these sore and panting hearts?
23340What were the results?
23340What''s to be done with_ us_?"
23340What?
23340Where were the lewd contractors, who had hoarded Confederate scrip by the basest exactions?
23340Who ever loved a mule?
23340Who is responsible for this?"
23340Why ai n''t we led up, sa- a- y?"
23340Why do n''t you shoot me?
23340Why, Jeems, could n''t we foot it, honey?"
23340Will Richmond surrender within a week?
23340Will you kindly bear with me a moment while the janitor gets me a glass of water?"
23340Wo n''t he be jealous?
23340Wo n''t he, lad?
23340Would n''t they let him and Sam off this wunst?
23340Would they finish what friends had commenced,--the sack, the desolation, the slaughter of the place?
23340You dead, Ally- bammy?
23340You do n''t think they''ll refuse to let me take his bones to Baltimore, do you, sir?
23340You have n''t got a drop of water, have you?"
23340and_ should n''t_ she write to Jeems?
23340or, indeed, in the East?
23340said I,"and the Pennsylvania Reserves?"
23340said an officer;"have they moved a battery so close?
23340said one,"what business you got wi''a hoss?"
23340said the Sergeant, sternly;"what are yeou deouin''aout at this hour o''the night?
23340said the old lady;"a must take care of''is''ealth; will a come hoom wi''Tummas and me and drink a bit o''tea?"
23340said the old man in his great voice,"where are you men going?"
23340she said, buoyantly--"is dat all?
23340was the mother''s next sob;"they loved the place: do you think they will know it?"
13039A lady, Barket?
13039A mother?
13039About your sister?
13039After all these months of separation, with your life in almost daily peril, and my life-- what?
13039Always at work on new clothes for our little soldier?
13039Am I right?
13039And have you heard nothing of Kerchival West on your side of the line?
13039And may I take him no warmer message from his father?
13039And not-- in prison?
13039And the cause of the blow?
13039And you ask me where it is?
13039And you have not forgiven him, even yet?
13039And you''ve been in the bay- window an hour?
13039Any more fire- works, Bob?
13039Anything else, Colonel?
13039Are you Northerners all blind?
13039Are you Southerners all mad, Robert?
13039Are you soldiers?
13039Are your Signalmen with you?
13039But can you tell me anything about my sister, Gertrude?
13039But what is this they have been telling me?
13039By the bye, did I tell you that I found the flint- lock invented( in Spain) in 1625--and it"soon"spread over Europe?
13039Ca n''t you hear me?
13039Ca n''t you hear my confession?
13039Can you almost confess, at last, Gertrude, that you-- love me?
13039Can you only bury the wrong and forget the good?
13039Can you sleep at a time like this?
13039Colonel West?
13039Did n''t you long to see your-- your friends at home-- when you were in prison, Captain?
13039Do I make myself plain?
13039Do you mean by that, that you will not accept one?
13039Do you remember in Charleston, darling-- that morning-- when I told you that-- that Robert loved you?
13039Do you see the lights of the city, over the water?
13039Do-- you-- think-- that?
13039Does she love me?
13039Does she?
13039Eh?
13039Eh?
13039Eh?
13039Eh?
13039Except?
13039Fire?
13039For both of us, sur?
13039General Sheridan''s horse?
13039Has he ever heard those words from your lips?
13039Has it?
13039Has n''t he?
13039Have I seen that confession in your eyes since we met again to- day-- even among the angry flashes which they have shot out at me?
13039Have you a kiss for me?
13039Have you any further orders for me, General?
13039Have you anything in particular to say to me?
13039Have you ever confessed your love to him before?
13039Have you found any despatches on the prisoner?
13039Have you heard anything of General Sheridan since I sent that despatch to him last evening?
13039Have you seen Gertrude?
13039Have you sent for a surgeon?
13039Have you?
13039He is not in your possession?
13039He knows?
13039How are you getting on with your son''s wardrobe?
13039How came this handkerchief in her room?
13039How did this portrait come into your possession?
13039How is Colonel West, this morning, after the wound he received last night?
13039How shall I receive Captain Heartsease?
13039I am too late?
13039I brought you up, did n''t I, Jack?
13039I hope to see him to- day; may I not take him some kind word from you?
13039I say, old boy, are we to be enemies?
13039I secured the necessary passports?
13039I suppose we must start for home again to- day?
13039I trust you are quite well now?
13039In battle?
13039Is General Haverill here?
13039Is General Haverill here?
13039Is Major Wilson in command of the regiment?
13039Is he not beautiful, Kerchival?
13039Is he unconscious or sleeping, sir?
13039Is he?
13039Is it a spy?
13039Is it because I am here?
13039Is that the key?
13039Is there no atonement for poor Frank''s sin-- not even his death?
13039Is this Miss Gertrude Ellingham?
13039Is this the one?
13039May I accompany you?
13039May I call you husband?
13039May I call you wife?
13039Might I say a word to you, sur, about Miss Jenny?
13039Mr. Thornton is n''t going with me, you say?
13039Now!--do you believe that we Southerners are in deadly earnest?
13039Now, what can there be about my sister''s voice to make a man jump like that?
13039Now?
13039Robert is alive-- and here?
13039Shall I go for him, sir?
13039Shall I return it to you?
13039She starts back._] He gave it to you?
13039The good?
13039The tay- cups and saucers be''s the inimy''s batthery?
13039The two men stand facing each other a moment._] Is it my quarrel now?
13039The young lady is to take the oath, is it?
13039There has never been a shadow between us-- will you not trust me?
13039This is General Haverill?
13039This very night at the ball-- here-- in the house of my own relatives-- what was their talk?
13039To an officer in active service-- and in the presence of the enemy?
13039Under your protection?
13039Was there anything besides your health involved in the affair?
13039What are yez doin''wid the china on the floor?
13039What are your orders, my man?
13039What can he mean?
13039What can he mean?
13039What did you do?
13039What did you say, General?
13039What do you mean, sir?
13039What do you mean?
13039What do you mean?
13039What do you mean?
13039What encouragement could I have given him?
13039What have they said to you?
13039What is that sound, Gertrude?
13039What is the use of posing as a prophet with such a record of the past?
13039What is there lacking to make those words true to- day?
13039What is your own trouble, dear?
13039What of Lieutenant Bedloe, Sergeant?
13039What subject are we on now?
13039What the devil are you thinking about now?
13039What troubles you?
13039What were the jests they laughed at?
13039Where are your field- glasses?
13039Where is he?
13039Where is the portrait of yourself, which I gave you, in Charleston, for my son?
13039Who goes there?
13039Who is it?
13039Who is it?
13039Who?
13039Whom are you going to tell next?
13039Why do you ask?
13039Why do you say this to me?
13039Why, ca n''t you tell us?
13039Will he dare to speak to me again?
13039Will you allow my men the privilege of carrying him to his grave?
13039Will you kindly give me leave of absence from the command?
13039Will you step into the drawing- room, Colonel?
13039Would you like to walk down to the shore?
13039Y- e- s-- I would say-- is it?
13039Yes; what can we do, sir?
13039You are in command here--[_Running down._]--you will compel them to give him up to me?
13039You are still silent?
13039You are visiting my sister?
13039You defy my authority?
13039You did not know?
13039You did not receive mother''s letter?--after his death?
13039You do n''t believe that General Beauregard will open fire on Fort Sumter this morning?
13039You do n''t really mean that, Gertrude-- with me?
13039You do not even know where Gertrude is?
13039You have n''t started with those girls yet?
13039You have seen me before?
13039You know me?
13039You know the wife of General Haverill?
13039You know?
13039You remember the confession you made to me last night?
13039You said I could do you a favour, Mrs. Haverill?
13039You say a prisoner has been captured?
13039You will give me your parole of honour until we next meet?
13039You wished me to report to you, Colonel?
13039You-- you know me, sir?
13039Your horse, is it?
13039[ GERTRUDE_ drops her head._ MADELINE_ moves up veranda and out._] Is what I have said to Madeline true?
13039[ KERCHIVAL_ crosses front and exit on veranda._ HAVERILL_ crosses._] Can you follow the despatch, Captain?
13039[_ After looking down at his hands._] You do n''t like the position?
13039[_ Aloud._] By the bye, Heartsease, a young Lieutenant, Frank Bedloe, has joined our troop?
13039[_ Apart._] Is it?
13039[_ As he enters._] Can you make anything of it, Captain?
13039[_ Aside._] Fever?
13039[_ Aside._] I wonder what it has to do with me?
13039[_ Aside._] What the deuce can there be in that letter?
13039[_ Aside_] What can I say?
13039[_ Astonished._] You are?
13039[_ Crosses quickly._] What do you mean?
13039[_ Going near to her._] Do you love me?
13039[_ He starts back, drawing up with dignity._] Is that the paramount duty of a military officer?
13039[_ Looking around at him, suddenly; then, aside._] What could any girl do with a lover like that?
13039[_ Looking at him._] Eh?
13039[_ Looking at him._] What?
13039[_ Looking at_ HEARTSEASE,_ who stands quietly stroking his mustache._] Why does n''t he tell_ me?_ BUCKTHORN.
13039[_ Looking down and tapping skirt with her whip._] Well?
13039[_ Looking into her face, brightly._] Is not this-- Miss-- Gertrude Ellingham?
13039[_ Looking off._] What is this?
13039[_ Looking._] What the devil is the row out there?
13039[_ Passing; turns._] Is she well?
13039[_ Quietly._] I suppose eight o''clock will be time enough for me to go?
13039[_ Returning it to wallet and pocket._] Was ever lover in such a position?
13039[_ Saluting._] Are there any orders for my regiment, beyond those given to Major Wilson, in my absence, this morning?
13039[_ Seizing her hand._] Do you love me?
13039[_ She jumps into military position, turning towards him._] What''s this I hear from Sergeant Barket?
13039[_ She looks down with a coquettish smile, tapping her skirt with her riding whip._] Well?
13039[_ Sighs._] Does she love me?
13039[_ Taking book._] How did this note- book come into your possession?
13039[_ Taking out note- book._] Have you a father living?
13039[_ Tenderly and earnestly._] Am I your enemy?
13039[_ Tenderly; she draws back, hanging her head, but leaving her hand in his._] Have I been wrong?
13039[_ Then brightly._] Do you always carry it with you?
13039[_ Then gruffly._] What is it?
13039[_ To_ STAFF OFFICER,_ who goes out quickly on veranda._] How did this happen?
13039you and I will be laid away before long, but we''ll be together again in the next world, wo n''t we, Barket?
38859How did you come by it?
38859Now may I ask you one and will you be as frank with me as I have with you?
38859The hell you say?
38859Whose tobacco is that?
38859Why did n''t they take it with them?
38859Why did n''t you shoot them as they ran?
38859Would you like to have some coffee for your breakfast?
38859And how about the Gray?
38859Have you any water?"
38859I said,"Why did they not take the horses from you?"
38859I said,"Yes, what''s the matter with you Johnny?"
38859I turned and called Dr. Githens, and then said to Jack,"For heaven''s sake, Jack, where did you come from?"
38859The general said,"I do n''t know, why do you say that?"
30585''Indeed?'' 30585 ''Say?''
30585A spy?
30585Alphonse,asked Merton,"would you know the lady you followed and guided that night in the Bois?"
30585And D''Artagnan?
30585And her name?
30585And my master?
30585And the original papers?
30585And was that all?
30585But Porthos?
30585But does he not-- must he not-- seem to earn his outside pay?
30585But is it not ridiculous?
30585But these papers?
30585But what about the count? 30585 But why did you not arrest me at once?"
30585But why?
30585But, Merton, how can we get into the house, even if we enter the garden unseen?
30585But,asked the countess,"how did you get the papers to London?
30585But,said I,"why did not the count follow and get there, as he could have done, before her?"
30585Can we find her?
30585Can you really trust him?
30585D''Artagnan?
30585Did you follow her?
30585Do you want to make two hundred francs?
30585Done?
30585How does that strike you?
30585I? 30585 If monsieur approves and can do without me for two days?"
30585If so,said Merton,"for what amount would you sell your republican body and soul?"
30585Is he? 30585 Is that all, monsieur?"
30585Is that all?
30585May I ask why you go to Belgium?
30585Might I again venture?
30585Now,he said,"what will they do?--rifle, revolver, or bowie?
30585Or not at all?
30585Perhaps what?
30585The count said:''Why not? 30585 The letters, monsieur?"
30585The woman? 30585 Then it is a matter of-- let me think-- not jealousy?
30585There was a woman in your carriage?
30585We exhaust personal motives-- what else is left? 30585 Well, what is it?
30585Well, what next?
30585Well,I said,"what the deuce became of you?"
30585Well,said the minister, smiling,"what next?"
30585Well?
30585What about false witness?
30585What about that woman? 30585 What affair?
30585What is her name?
30585What letters, Greville, do you turn over for the recreation and service of the Foreign Office?
30585What other directions has monsieur, or am I merely to report about the house and the guards? 30585 What would you say to-- well, a thousand francs down and a thousand in three months?"
30585Where is it?
30585Will madame look in the glass for an answer? 30585 With what matter?"
30585Wo n''t they, indeed? 30585 Would M. le Capitaine explain?
30585Yes, of course you were right; but what did she say?
30585A confederate?
30585A lady?
30585All right, Greville?"
30585Alphonse laid the letters on my table, and as he lingered I said,"Well, what is it?"
30585Am I to understand that the language now used to me represents the instructions of the count?''
30585And are you really sure of him?"
30585And pray, who was my husband?"
30585And then, sure that his reply would be a confident negative,"Are you not a spy in the service of the police?"
30585And was it down the avenue?
30585And you want to know?"
30585And you were sure she was not his wife?"
30585Are you for the emperor?"
30585Are you not curious?"
30585At last Merton said,"If this woman goes out into society, might you not chance to meet her?"
30585At last he said:"Will you pardon me if I make a suggestion?"
30585At last our chief said:"You have never seen these papers?"
30585But can he shoot?
30585But how did it occur to you, Madame Merton, to use the ashes as you did?"
30585But how to follow it up?
30585But what about those papers?
30585But what happened?"
30585But what next?
30585But what next?
30585But what will you do?
30585But what,"I asked,"did she say?"
30585But who took the papers?
30585But who was my handsome and terrified companion, and what was the affair?
30585But why do they not arrest her?
30585But why?"
30585Dayton?"
30585Did I happen to mention that I told them I did not fight with knitting- needles?"
30585Did I know anything about it?
30585Did the count recognize you?''
30585Do n''t you see?"
30585Do you mean to create four duels in a day?
30585Do you suppose I can sit quiet under it?
30585Ever steal apples?
30585Exclude love, jealousy, any gross fraud, and what is left?
30585Given a house already watched day and night, how to get a paper out of it?
30585Good, that, is n''t it?
30585Greville?"
30585Had you any trouble?"
30585Has she robbed the Bank of France?"
30585Has the night left you any wiser?"
30585He asked in turn,"What do you think she said?"
30585How can that be?
30585How could he dream that under a hot fire, cool and safe, were papers worth a fortune?"
30585How is it, Greville?"
30585I confessed my own pleasure in the game, and was about to let Alphonse go when Merton said:"May I take a great liberty?"
30585I knew, too, that I should be afraid, but would that lessen my competence?
30585I said I intended to go to the Rue de la Paix, but I added,"If madame has no objection, may I not first drop her wherever she wishes to go?"
30585I said,"How could I?"
30585I said,"Might I then ask where madame desires to go?"
30585I said:"You appear to be frank, but are you to belong to me or to the police?
30585I said;''does monsieur the colonel wish to insult me?
30585I think I am correct, baron?''
30585I think, colonel, I am correct?
30585Is n''t it jolly?"
30585Is that the baron?"
30585May I ask you, M. Greville, if you know Captain Merton?
30585Merton said:"And now, Alphonse, have you any plan, any means by which we can enter that house at night and get away safe without violent methods?"
30585Merton said:"Are we safe here?"
30585Might he show them a note or two?
30585Monsieur permits me to describe it as an observer?"
30585Now what do you think of my comedy?"
30585Pray go on-- and did any man ever hear of such a mix- up?
30585She hesitated a moment, and then asked irrelevantly,"Monsieur is not French?"
30585Tell me, would you prefer to drop it?"
30585That would do, and might he venture to say that monsieur would be well advised to keep out of the matter?
30585Then I am free to- morrow?"
30585Then he said,"It is too grave a matter for equivocation, and I ask, Did you take it?"
30585To my amused surprise he said:"Yes, but will monsieur permit me to explain?"
30585VII"As I turned to go he said:''May I ask you to sit down?
30585Was he cross?"
30585Was it not wrong?
30585Was she his wife?
30585Was that all?"
30585Was there ever anything more dramatically all that could be desired?
30585What about Porthos and that little red weasel Aramis?"
30585What affair?
30585What am I to do?"
30585What can be left?"
30585What could I reply?
30585What did you say?"
30585What explanation had M. Merton to offer?
30585What is it?
30585What is it?"
30585What means that, M. Greville-- damn nonsense?''
30585What next?
30585What next?"
30585What next?"
30585What next?"
30585What shall I do?"
30585What shall we do?"
30585What was meant by the affair?
30585Where are they?
30585Where do you come in?"
30585Why not return the papers?''
30585Would n''t one of them show her the way?
30585You are out of it, but where do I come in?
30585You are sure she is a lady?"
30585You have a revolver?"
30585You will not desert her?"
30585Your cigars were not bought in France; may I have another?
30585_ Sacré bleu!_ Who is to pay?"
30585and I asked:"Is that all?"
29264Well, my dear, point out where to find them?

29264And what is done?
29264And who is now?
29264And why is Stanton silent?
29264And why not?
29264And why not?...
29264And why not?...
29264Are bad, worthless, insincere, selfish men to be the agencies and the factors of great and lofty principles?
29264Are contracts at the bottom of the puff, or is it only one of_ Weed''s_ tricks to defile and to ruin_ Stanton_?
29264Are not the humble, suffering, orderly contrabands infinitely superior to the rowdy, unruly, ignorant, savage and bloody whites?
29264Are the Gods against us?
29264But are the French people so debased as to submit?
29264But how could the government entrust him with this expedition?
29264But if not, will Meade attack Lee?
29264But of what benefit to me is this fatal, this Cassandra gift of foreseeing?
29264But were it true?
29264But what else could he do?
29264But where is the responsibility?
29264But who inaugurated and directed them in 1861?
29264But why do you suffer yourselves to be crushed down by the upper- crust of senile nincompoops?
29264But why has the Senator forgotten to ascend to one of the paramount causes?
29264But why not previous to the battle?
29264But, to be candid, how can activity and dash be expected from generals who have at their head, a shallow brained pedant like Halleck?
29264Comparative to what?
29264Comparative to what?
29264Could Seward learn how to be earnest, precise and clear, without spread- eagleism?
29264Does Halleck- Burnside intend to wait until the rebels shall be thoroughly prepared to repel any attack that may be made upon them?
29264England, in 1848- 9, whipped women in Ireland, and how many thousands have been murdered by the_ Decembriseur_?
29264For heaven''s sake let us know, pray,_ pray_ let us know who was Lincoln''s amanuensis?
29264Forgotten the true son of the people?
29264Had Lee ever vetoed Stewart''s raids?
29264Had Lincoln, had Halleck meddled?
29264Has England considered Napper Tandy and his aids as belligerents?
29264Has England ever treated the Irish according to the laws of international warfare?
29264Has Lincoln played false to humanity?
29264Has Sumner insinuated this himself to some newspaper reporter in_ extremis_ for news?
29264Has he a clear comprehension of the sacrifice thus perpetrated by the people?
29264Has not Mr. Lincoln thrown confusion around?
29264Has not this time Lee overshot the mark?
29264Have any generals Franklinized?
29264How can Burnside venture to say that after the repulse, during three days he expected the enemy to leave his stronghold and attack him-- Burnside?
29264How could he?
29264How could it be otherwise, with Lincoln, Seward and Halleck at the head?
29264How could the Senator thus belittle one of the most elevated political positions in the world, that of a Senator of the United States?
29264How many such patriots as Wadsworth, can we boast of?
29264How much foresight have your-- dearly- paid-- servants shown?
29264How should a Halleck do so?
29264How will it end?
29264How, in fact, was Burnside to move a great army without pontoons?
29264How, then, can the Democrats rave for McClellan, the most unfighting soldier ever known?
29264I am sorry to bring such details before the public, but how otherwise convict a liar?
29264If Lee committed a fault, are you, gentlemen, in duty bound to imitate his mistakes?
29264If Meade had not, or has not troops enough, why is not Foster ordered here with all he has?
29264If all is confirmed concerning Hooker''s incapacity, then it is a crime to keep him in command; but who after him?
29264If such declaration was needed, why not make it through the regular representatives of the country, as are Mr. Adams and Mr. Dayton?
29264In America, not to have an adequate material?
29264In the North, the Governors, all of them,( Seymour?)
29264Is Mr. Lincoln becoming seriously serious?
29264Is Stanton dragged down by the infuriated fates?
29264Is he acting thus_ in obedience to orders_?
29264Is it forgery or stealing?
29264Is it my fault that they give me no occasion?
29264Is it not so, Lincoln?
29264Is it the Constitution, the Statute, is it the incarnate four years formula which seals Stanton''s heart and brains?
29264Is it to be a commercial union, this hobby of your minister here?
29264Is it to organize some underground road to reunion on the Mercier- Seward- Richmond programme?
29264Is not Lincoln hailed as the new Moses?
29264Is not Virginia the first in the slave States for the number of slaves?
29264Is such a thing possible?
29264Is that the_ accident_ of which the precious proclamation so impudently speaks?
29264Is the North not pouring forth its blood and its treasures, and are they not all squandered by counterfeits?
29264Is the example of Judas forgotten?
29264It can not be a_ reconnaissance_--of what?
29264L. B._--Are the people again to receive a President from the hand of intriguers, from politicians, or from honest imbeciles?
29264Loyalty to principles?
29264Mr. Lincoln may now be serious in a great many matters, but if he could have been serious a year ago-- how much money would have been economized?
29264O, Halleck, where are the depots?
29264O, why can not Mr. Seward learn from Gortschakoff how not to put gas in such weighty documents?
29264O, you Bible- reading people, can Judases and rotten consciences carry out good principles?
29264Oh why is Lee engaged on the bad and damnable side?
29264Oh, why has Congress forgotten to pass a law forbidding Seward, for decency''s sake, to make himself ridiculous?
29264On paper or in the grave?
29264On the authority of the published"DIARY,"I am asked, even by letters,"Where is Stanton?"
29264Or are not rather all his favorites-- not even whitened-- sepulchres of manhood, of mind and of sacred intellect?
29264Or has imbecility exasperated even the merciful but rational Christian God to that extent, that God turns his back upon us?
29264Or perhaps orders exist not to bring about a general engagement?
29264Parumne campis atque Neptuno super Fusum est--[Yankee] sanguinis?
29264Pretty well has all this succeeded, and why can not the younger generation seize the helm in this terrible crisis?
29264So did the Herodians sneer at the star of Bethlehem; and where now are the Herodians?
29264Some man gifted with a sound brain, who never is quick at writing a dispatch, and would demand double salary as the price of writing one?
29264Staff duties require special studies, they are the highest military science; and where, in the name of all, could Butterfield have acquired it?
29264The people fails not, but how about the helmsmen?
29264The_ New York Times_ begins to mend its bad ways; but how long will it continue in the better path?
29264Then we march a few miles onwards, more miles backwards, and what not?
29264Then why make it?
29264To amuse the people?
29264To those of the enemy?
29264Upon what?
29264Warren fought well, but if Sykes was within supporting distance, why did they not annihilate the rebel corps?
29264Was Hooker again stunned, to make such a deliberate mistake-- nay, crime?
29264Was it done without any plan?
29264Well, Loyalty, but to whom?
29264Well, pompous Chase; how do you feel for having sided with Seward?
29264Well, why has Lincoln forgotten Texas all this time?
29264Were it not so, how many rhetors would be abolitionists?
29264What for?
29264What is in the wind?
29264What is the matter?
29264What is the use to deny it now?
29264What is to be more scorned?
29264What knows he about them?
29264What must the crown lawyers in England have thought of Mr. Evart''s great mastery of international laws?
29264What was to be answered?
29264What will Chase do?
29264What will be the manoeuvring to- morrow?
29264What, in the name of common sense, could he do with a single corps, when the whole army was repulsed?
29264Where are they?
29264Where could the rebels scrabble together such a number?
29264Where, oh where are the paid men?
29264Who ever read that Alexander, or Cesar, or Frederic, or Napoleon, or even captains of lesser fame, selected their ground?
29264Who gave them?
29264Who knows how far the soldiers are right?
29264Who will be taken in?
29264Who will have the best, the Monitors or the batteries?
29264Whom do they hope to humbug in this way?
29264Why does Hooker publish such a proclamation?
29264Why has not_ pater conscriptus_ uttered a single word of condemnation from his Senatorial_ fauteuil_, and kept mute during three sessions?
29264Why is Stanton silent?
29264Why not mask our movements before Gordonsville from the observation of Lee?
29264Why not?
29264Why shall it not be so here, when want of energy is the word?
29264Will Halleck soon be sent to California?
29264Will Mr. Lincoln have courage to dismiss McClellan from the army?
29264Will Mr. Lincoln realize the grandeur of this unparallelled trust?
29264Will a man start up in the next Congress and call the malefactors to account?
29264Will any European government, power, or statesman permit the United States to acquire even the most barren rock on the European continent?
29264Will it be possible to find among our Potomac generals one in whom revelation will supply experience?
29264Will the iron- clads resist the concentric fire from so numerous batteries?
29264Will this country ever escape the tutorship of sham science?
29264Will this new disgrace serve to strengthen the Administration?
29264_ August 18._--A patriotic gentlewoman asked me why I write a diary?
29264_ January 28._--The Congress almost expires; and will or can the incarnated constitutional formula save the country?
29264_ July 13._--What is_ Meade_ doing?
29264_ June 30._--How will Meade compose his staff?
29264_ September 22._--On all sides I hear the question put, Who is Gilmore?
29264_ September 24._--How could Meade let Lee send troops to Bragg, and why Meade attacked or attacks not?
29264_ Tschto den griadoustchi nam gotowit?_( Puschkine.)
29264_ What_ accident?
29264are our Generals to carry on a mere war of civilities?
29264as the man for the times, as the only one God sent to direct the people, and to grapple with the stern, earnest emergencies and perils?
29264how can you thus pointedly and mercilessly criticise your own deeds and policy?
29264mass them on the south side of the Potomac under such generals as Heintzelman, Sigel, etc., and take the enemy between two fires?
29264or is Stanton eaten up by the rats in the Cabinet?
29264to increase losses in men and in material?
29264when a Franklin is still sustained, when a Seward and a Halleck remain firm in their high places as the gates of hell?
29264who so recklessly waste all the people''s sacrifices, will you volunteer more brains and less selfishness?
22906Any one-- any one? 22906 Are you sure, Hollins?"
22906Are-- are you sure, lieutenant?
22906Besides, Paul--"Well, mother, besides--?
22906Bessie has been ill, but is better, major; and how did you leave them all at home? 22906 But can you ride yet?"
22906But do you mean that, after receiving my letter, you returned those that I asked for-- that I had a right to see?
22906Certainly, B-- Guthrie Warren''s father-- you remember?
22906Did any of your officers besides Mr. Hollins have civilian dress or disguise of any kind?
22906Did he impress you as a man who told a perfectly straight story, and properly accounted for himself?
22906Did he show you any of the letters?
22906Did you know him?
22906Did you send them to me, Viva?
22906Do you know that Hollins has n''t turned up yet?
22906Do you mean that he knows it? 22906 Do you mean that there was anything wrong about him?"
22906Do you mean to tell me he_ did_ have communication with the doctor?
22906Does he say who''s to be quartermaster?
22906Has any one else won away the heart of my little girl- love?
22906He brought letters to you, did n''t he?
22906How do you know I ever saw any letters? 22906 How''n hell did I know there was any prayin''going on?"
22906I presume there is nothing else I can do just here, is there, colonel?
22906In God''s name, how came you here, and in this garb?
22906Is that you, papa? 22906 Is there a barn back there?"
22906Is this the army doctor?
22906Neither do you, do you?
22906No, colonel; was there one? 22906 No-- what?"
22906So I heard this morning, colonel, and yet you saw him the night of the battle, did you not?
22906The doctor was well known to you, was he not, Putnam?
22906Then can not you find a little love for me left over from the childish days? 22906 They are mine, written by Miss Warren, and were stolen from me, as I believe; was there no explanation or address?"
22906We were sweethearts so long, Viva; but have you learned to care for some other?
22906Well, we never met before yesterday, but--"You never wrote to her, did you, or to her father?
22906What did you do with them?
22906What did you say was the name of the officer who was killed-- his son?
22906What do you mean? 22906 What do you want of the major, Rix?"
22906What does this mean? 22906 What good will it do?
22906What is it, Win?
22906What is the matter with your prisoner, sergeant? 22906 What letters?"
22906What on earth does that mean, Abbot?
22906What papers?
22906What was that remark, Rix?
22906What was the remark you made just now?
22906When? 22906 Where is he?"
22906Where is the old man? 22906 Who had charge of the distribution of the regimental mail all winter and spring?"
22906Who is that man?
22906Who is the man who questions your authority?
22906Whom did he want, then?
22906Why so?
22906Will you tell me how and by whom they were called for?
22906Wo n''t you sit down? 22906 You are Major Abbot, formerly-- th Massachusetts, I believe, and your despatch is about the missing quartermaster, is it not?"
22906You say you never wrote to this girl, and I believe you; but tell me this: have you never seen her? 22906 You would know Hollins at once, would you not?"
22906Your last one, from Washington? 22906 Your name, sir, and your regiment?
22906Abbot knew him, did he?"
22906Are the wagons back?"
22906As for the rest-- was he not an Abbot?
22906Before or after you got my letter?"
22906But he can not go without a word from her, and it is a moment before she can speak:"Is-- is it not very sudden?
22906But what does he mean by threatening you?"
22906But you give me to understand that-- that there was none?"
22906Can he ever forget the trust, the radiance, the restfulness in the shy, sudden look she gives him?
22906Captain Lee runs to the roadside and hails him with familiar shout:"What''s up, Win?"
22906Could he or would he have gone back to Boston?
22906Did none of the letters ever suggest embarrassments?
22906Did not Guthrie know and honor him?
22906Did you get my letter?"
22906Did you not get my letters and telegrams?"
22906Did you say Doctor Warren?"
22906Do you know her?"
22906Do you remember, when we were first camped at Meridian Hill, Hollins and Rix occupied the same tent a few days, and the colonel put a stop to it?
22906Do you see nothing suspicious in his conduct?
22906Do you understand?"
22906Do you-- do_ you_ know?"
22906Do you_ know_ where Hollins is?"
22906Doctor, will you trust me?
22906Does anybody know his antecedents?"
22906Does it mean that I am to be punished for another man''s crime?
22906Does she know you are here?
22906Granted that we have both been cheated, fooled, tricked, why keep up the farce of a loveless engagement?
22906Had he anything to draw him thither?"
22906Has he been accused?"
22906Has she heard the truth about the old letters?"
22906Have you any idea of the whereabouts of Mr. Hollins of your old regiment, or can you give us any idea as to where he would be likely to go?
22906Have you heard from Wendell?"
22906Have you lost such, or can you account for them?"
22906Have you no sense of decency at all?"
22906Have you seen a surgeon?"
22906He claimed to have known and been in correspondence with you, did he not?"
22906Heard about Abbot?"
22906How are you wounded?
22906How can there be?"
22906How did you find us?"
22906How is Miss Warren to- day?"
22906How''s the leg?
22906I am ordered to Boston by first train in the morning, but shall see you-- may I not-- in New York?"
22906I''ve no right to ask anything of you, but-- who_ is_ there?
22906If I return, shall we--"( he had almost said,"shall we fulfil our manifest destiny, and make our parents happy?"
22906If it was not Mr. Abbot, who could it have been?
22906If it will pain her I will ask no meeting now, but do n''t you think I owe her a good many letters, doctor?
22906Indeed, had he not heard it whispered that Miss Winthrop was the senior by nearly a year?
22906Is he drunk or crazy, that he persists in this uproar?"
22906Is n''t it all strange?"
22906Is there any one else you want to see, Hollins?"
22906Is there any way in which I can serve you?"
22906It was the major who reported me to you as dangerously wounded, was it not?"
22906May he not?
22906Miss Bessie was suddenly taken ill. Wo n''t the gentleman come in?
22906No answer for a moment, then:"Why do you ask that?
22906No?
22906Now can you go in the morning?"
22906Now what did the quartermaster say?"
22906Now, if he was a Doctor Warren, from the North, and a loyal man, what would he be doing with a spy?"
22906Only a week or so before had not that gray- haired old doctor shown almost as deep an emotion on meeting him at Frederick?
22906Pardon me, major, you saw this Doctor Warren at Frederick, did you not?"
22906Rix''s words at the field hospital!--what in Heaven''s name can it all mean?
22906Shall I light you back to the street?"
22906She will come to in a moment, so why be worried?
22906Take them to her, by and by, and tell her, will you?
22906Tell me, how is Miss Bessie?"
22906The colonel, meantime, accosts the driver:"What took that man away so suddenly?
22906Then can it be that she is there, waiting him, impatient of his coming?
22906Then his voice, stern and constrained, is heard in question:"Have you any messages, Hollins?
22906Then you bear me no ill- will?"
22906There are others whom you might like to see; and shall I send Rix to you?"
22906There is no time now-- but next week-- New York-- I may see you there, may I not?"
22906They did n''t, did they, Abbot?
22906To begin with, does anybody know that a vacancy exists?"
22906Warren?"
22906Was he not a gallant officer as well as a thoroughbred gentleman?
22906Was the door locked?"
22906Was there not in one of those letters a paragraph over which his sweet daughter had blushed painfully as she strove to read it aloud?
22906What can he say to Bessie when he meets those beautiful, pleading, trusting, anxious eyes?
22906What can he tell his little girl?
22906What could she have thought when he came back to her-- after seeing you?"
22906What could such a man as he have to do with the affairs, personal or professional, of the officers of the regiment?
22906What did you do with them?"
22906What earthly inducement could he have?
22906What is he to tell--_how_ is he to tell her?
22906What man can look in her eyes and ask less?
22906What man would be apt to do that sort of thing?
22906What network of crime and mystery is this that is thrown around him?
22906What object could he have?
22906What on earth can that mean?
22906What possible difference can it make?
22906What possible, probable story can man invent to cover a case so cruel as this?
22906What shall he say?
22906What use could he have had for false beard and wig?"
22906What was his face like-- this man I mean?"
22906What would we have done without you?"
22906What''s up now?"
22906What_ will_ they do with Rix?"
22906When she had finished he looked her full in the face and quietly said:"And is there any other reason, mother?"
22906Where are your wounded?"
22906Where did Hollins get him?
22906Where was it?"
22906Where''s_ he_, lieutenant?
22906Which way did he go?"
22906Whither can they be going at this hour of the night?
22906Who else could have known him?"
22906Who is he?"
22906Who--_who_ then is_ she_?
22906Why did n''t you come round there-- they''d have been so delighted to see you?
22906Why not end it where it is?
22906Why not go, Abbot?
22906Why tell the old, old story in its every stage?
22906Why, Abbot?
22906Why, what is he accused of?"
22906Why?
22906Why?"
22906Will you be my wife?"
22906Will you let me try and be Guthrie to you to- night; and promise me to lie still here until I come back from the provost- marshal''s?"
22906Will you stay here just a few moments?
22906Will you wait?"
22906Wo n''t you let me pay that debt?"
22906Wonder whose staff he goes on?"
22906Would you shake hands, Abbot?
22906You are not in communication with him now, are you?"
22906You were senseless and exhausted, and with two rifle bullets through you what was to be expected?
22906You''re still engaged?"
22906_ Could_ he look in her face and tell her it was all a fraud; that some one had stolen and sent her his picture?
22906_ Now_, what think you of me and what I suffered?"
22906_ You_ see to it, will you, that this is buried on my heart?
22906do you not at this moment care for her infinitely more than you do for me?"
22906some one had stolen and used his name, and, whatsoever were the letters, all were forgeries?
22906where?"
35700Doctor, may I try to save my boy my own way?
35700From whom?
35700I wonder, Lord, will I ever get to heaven-- to the New Jerusalem?
35700If I can write to your mother before you are free, what shall I say?
35700Is he wounded?
35700Miss M----,said one of the more timid servants,"do they want to kill us all dead?
35700We camp near, do we?
35700What can be the matter?
35700Where are you going?
35700Where can we go? 35700 Who shall we look to now for protection?"
35700You are very sick, and God may not spare your life; will you say one little prayer after me?
35700And what will the morrow bring forth?
35700At breakfast, on the morning of the 17th, we heard discussed the question, Whether there was a masked battery on the opposite shore or not?
35700But why does he cripple so efficient an officer as General P---- certainly is, so as almost to render him inefficient?
35700Can no appeal be made by which peace may come to us?"
35700Can the farmer, to whom it offers the latest results of agricultural research and experiment?
35700Can the intelligent mechanic, who wishes to understand what he reads in his daily paper?
35700Can the teacher, who is enabled, by the outside information it affords, to make his instructions doubly interesting and profitable?
35700Can the young man, to whom it affords the means of storing his mind with useful knowledge bearing no any vocation he may have selected?
35700Can there be nothing done to assuage the fierce passions of men?
35700Can you credit it, dear J----, General Beauregard has evacuated Corinth?
35700Did this smooth, deceitful current of the glowing waters glide over forms loved and lost to the faithful ones at home?
35700Do you not already repent the remark?
35700Had this night made them orphans?
35700Have I ever told you his history?
35700How could we sing and laugh amid our suffering fellow beings-- amid the shriek of death itself?
35700I had been sleeping some time, for the moon was shining brightly, when I was awakened by loud cries and screams:"Where shall we go?
35700I thought him an ordinary man, did not you?
35700I thought, as I leaned from the balcony of my room; will these streets echo to the tread of the victorious army?
35700I turned to the doctor, questioning:"Are they coming over the hill?"
35700I was reminded of the poor man in an infected district who was met by a traveller and asked,"How do you live here?"
35700In the midst of all the falling shells, can not one reach him, giving him peace and death?
35700Madam, do n''t you think your house stands in need of you?"
35700Must we again go through the fright and anxiety of yesterday?"
35700My friend, do you dread death?
35700O boys, where are you?
35700Our whole little household had been drawn out to witness the departure of the brilliant(?)
35700Really, was there to be no mental rest for the women of Vicksburg?
35700Shot, gasping, wild, he staggered around, crying piteously,"Where are you, boys?
35700So I said:"Soldier, would you like a tent fly?"
35700So, in answer to the little man''s query,"Do n''t you think we''d better whip up and try to make O---- by night?"
35700Standing between us, he said:"Where are you gwin'', old man?"
35700Suppose the gunboats should make an attack?
35700Was M---- in earnest?
35700Was it a dream?
35700What could it mean?
35700What soul in the land but has felt and witnessed this grief-- this unavailing sorrow for the brave and untimely dead?
35700What was the poor mother doing now, of whom he whispered to me?
35700Why do n''t you stand your ground?"
35700Why should a woman of sense care to talk about anything but dress and her servants?
35700Will they keep doing this until we all die?"
35700Would you like to see those you love complimented in this way?
35700Yet I thought, may I not be in danger in Vicksburg?
35700Yet, is there any place where one is perfectly safe in these terrible times?
35700You do not wonder at my quotation in favor of a retrograde movement in this frame of mind, do you?
35700You''ll stand by us, and protect us, wo n''t you?
35700cried I,"have we no rest for the sole of our foot?
35700mamma, was it a mortar tell?"
35700of opportunities for good to our fellow men lost?
35700of prayers hastily said over?
35700said I to a friend,"how is it possible you live here?"
35700where shall we go?"
31488''Got?'' 31488 Am I never going to see you again?"
31488Are yeh sure a- goin''?
31488Are you hungry?
31488Are you sure?
31488Could you see the whites of their eyes?
31488Dan got to go?

31488Did you order up the horses?
31488Do n''t yeh think I know what a rebel is?

31488Humph,said Dan,"where you been?"
31488In-- in the barn?
31488Is there any one else in the house?
31488Jones,he said, in an intensely earnest voice,"will you tell me what in the devil I am going to do?"
31488Licking, hey? 31488 Longstreet?
31488Never?
31488Never?
31488No news yet, hey?

31488Oh, let him alone, ca n''t you?

31488Say, they did n''t stand that rush a minute, did they?
31488So you got him?
31488That? 31488 Was it-- was it those who passed here just now?
31488We ai n''t dyin''of thirst, are we? 31488 Well, I did n''t take your chickens, did I?"
31488Well, I hain''t got no gun nor nuthin'',said Peter, in the same low tone;"what good''ud I do?"
31488Well, do n''t I know it?
31488Well, gimme time, ca n''t yeh?
31488Well, what''s''che got?

31488What are you holding behind you?
31488What is it for, Haines?
31488What was I telling them?
31488What was it?
31488What''che goin''t''do?
31488What''s he goin''to do, anyhow?
31488What''s in it?
31488What''s th''matter with yeh? 31488 What''s th''matter?
31488What''s that?
31488What''s the matter with Billie?
31488What-- them? 31488 What?
31488What?
31488What?
31488What?
31488Where did you come from? 31488 Where''ll we hide?
31488Where? 31488 Who is here besides yourself?"
31488Who is? 31488 Why should I shut up?"
31488Wo n''t you let me bring you something?
31488Wo n''t you tell me?
31488Wo n''t you tell me?
31488Would n''t she?
31488Yeh hain''t afraid, are yeh?
31488Yes; but how you goin''to git it?
31488You are not angry at me, are you?
31488You do n''t think I know, do you?
31488You live here, I presume?
31488You must be pretty thirsty, Collins?
31488You wo n''t hurt him, will you? 31488 A loud voice shouted,What is it, Ferguson?"
31488After a moment, he asked,"Ca n''t you wait?"
31488Ai n''t there any water round here?"
31488Are there any of them here?"
31488Are yeh sure?
31488But suddenly his face straightened and he called:"Say, young man, give me a drink of water, will you?"
31488But the girl ventured again:"Is there anybody there?"
31488Ca n''t yeh shet up?"
31488Did they chase you?"
31488Did you see''i m?"
31488Did-- did you escape from the-- the Yankees?"
31488Do n''t I know it?"
31488Do n''t you wish you owned Sickles''s colt, Jimmie?"
31488Do yeh hear?"
31488Do you know?"
31488Has he?"
31488Have they gone?"
31488Have those men gone yet?
31488He ca n''t be dead?"
31488He glanced at the house which towered above them, and remarked casually to the man on the horse- hair trunk:"Funny, ai n''t it?
31488He leaned toward the shaking girl, and said gently,"Will you tell me what you were going to do with this pistol?"
31488He said:"Shut up, will you?"
31488He scowled at the boys and whispered angrily:"Why did n''t yeh bring th''powder horn an''th''thing with th''bullets in?
31488He turned then to whisper,"You wait here, will yeh?"
31488He twisted his head once to say:"Keep still, ca n''t yeh?
31488Hey?"
31488How d''I know?"
31488How in thunder d''I know?"
31488How long ago?
31488I wonder if they took old Santo?"
31488If you''re goin''in after''i m, why do n''t yeh go in after''i m?"
31488In a faint whisper the first man said,"Where''s Sim?"
31488In the house?"
31488No one knew that during this time the old lady had been standing in her night clothes at the bedroom door, yelling:"What''s th''matter?
31488Old Peter halted once and whispered:"Say, look a''here; supposin''--supposin''----""Supposin''what?"
31488Once he turned his head and asked,"What?"
31488Presently Dan said:"Billie, where you been?"
31488Presently the major returned and said, in a cautious whisper,"If yeh hear anythin'', you come a- runnin'', will yeh?"
31488Seeing a wakeful one he asked:"Is Dan back yet?"
31488She addressed the kitchen:"Who''s there?"
31488She was still for a time and then, awed, she said,"Will they-- will they hang him?"
31488Sometimes the captain called to them,"Try that closet,""Is there any cellar?"
31488Suddenly he ceased his oration, and scanning the group of his comrades, said:"Where''s Billie?
31488Suddenly she turned and whispered,"Who is he?"
31488The captain said,"Please wo n''t you tell me?"
31488The girl who knelt beside the body upon the floor turned toward them her lamenting eyes and cried:"He''s not dead, is he?
31488The lieutenant said to the first sergeant:"Williams, did they ever meet before?"
31488Then finally he ventured,"Grandpa-- now-- was that true what you was telling those men?"
31488Then he hesitatingly stepped closer, and said:"Got any news, Dan?"
31488Two poor helpless women----""Why, ma, what makes you act so?
31488We----""Did you ever see my father in the army?"
31488What is he-- in the cavalry?"
31488What shall I do, ma?
31488What shall I do?"
31488What''s th''matter with yeh?"
31488What''s th''matter with yeh?"
31488What''s th''matter?
31488What''s th''matter?"
31488What-- that little passel?
31488What?
31488When are those men going?
31488When he returned to the group he found the captain bending over the girl and saying,"Why is it that you do n''t want us to search upstairs?"
31488Where is he now?
31488Where is he?"
31488Where is she?
31488Where''ll we hide?
31488Who is over in the woods?
31488Who saw''i m?
31488Why ca n''t you look?
31488Why did n''t you lick us at----?
31488Why do n''t some of them other corporals take their turn?"
31488Will I get you something to eat?"
31488You recollect?

31488You''ll run through that there medder, wo n''t yeh?"

18617Are they loaded,--what is your name?
18617Are you a Freemason, Dave?
18617Are you an engineer in the Confederate Navy, sir?
18617Base ball or boat- club business?
18617But what has occurred on board of the Havana?
18617Can you make it out?
18617Can you make out anything that looks like a sentinel?
18617Can you make out the steamer?
18617Could n''t you hear anything?
18617Could we not pick up the convoy after we had captured the steamer?
18617Did I instruct you to bring it off?
18617Did you drink any of it, Dolly?
18617Did you ever speak to him?
18617Did you have a pilot on board of your tug?
18617Did you have to fight for them?
18617Did you hear me when I came into the cabin?
18617Do n''t you intend to send me back to the Keys?
18617Do n''t you know what we were talking about, Dave?
18617Do you indeed?
18617Do you know Mulgrum, Dave?
18617Do you know anything about an engine, Dolly?
18617Do you know anything in regard to the speed of the Vixen, for that may be a very important matter with us?
18617Do you make out what that vessel is, Captain Passford?
18617Do you mean the man I have seen cleaning brass work about the cabin?
18617Do you surrender?
18617Do you surrender?
18617Do you think there is any doubt in regard to them?
18617Do you think they will swallow this fiction, Captain Passford?
18617Does Mr. Hungerford talk any now?
18617Does he talk at all about what has just happened on board of his steamer?
18617Does your agent give you any description of the vessels, father?
18617Dolly? 18617 Done something?
18617Eight will do very well, Dave; but who are they?
18617Envelopes, father?
18617Had some trouble, did they? 18617 Has any damage been done to the engine?"
18617Has he been in the engine room at any time since we sailed?
18617Have you any friends on board, Mr. Flint, among the crew?
18617Have you any officer in mind who would acceptably fill the vacant place, Captain Blowitt?
18617Have you asked Mr. Lillyworth anything about him?
18617Have you made all your arrangements, Captain Flint?
18617He is your first assistant; is he a competent man to run an engine?
18617How can one be amiable under such orders?
18617How did you know he was under the berth in the first place, Dave?
18617How do you happen to be a greaser on a steamer if you are a preacher?
18617How does she lie from the Bronx?
18617How is the water under us?
18617How many schooners are there at the landing place at the keys?
18617How what happened, Captain Rowly?
18617I am yours truly; who are you?
18617I beg your pardon, Captain Passford, but what under the canopy is that letter for?
18617I beg your pardon, sir, but did I understand you to say that this young gentleman is the commander of the steamer alongside?
18617I presume you are an officer of the Confederate Navy?
18617I suppose you are Englishmen?
18617Indeed? 18617 Indeed?"
18617Indeed?
18617Is Mr. Bockburn on duty?
18617Is anything going wrong, Captain Passford?
18617Is n''t there any place in his cabin where you can conceal yourself?
18617Is she in motion?
18617Is that the reason why Mr. Pawcett wished to have you do the copying of my papers?
18617Is the damage very serious?
18617Is the steamer under way?
18617Is there any danger?
18617Is your coffee quite right, Captain Dinsmore?
18617May I ask you, Mr. Passford, in regard to your business on board of her?
18617May I ask, Captain Passford, who told you my name?
18617May I ask, gentlemen, if you are officers of the Confederate Navy?
18617May I be allowed to ask whom I have the honor to address?
18617May I inquire the name of this steamer?
18617Mixed, are they?
18617Mr. Bockburn, I believe, the chief engineer of the Ocklockonee?
18617Now, Captain Dinsmore, may I trouble you for your papers?
18617Now, Dave, you know Mulgrum, or Pink, as you call him?
18617Of course you are aware that you are serving in a Confederate man- of- war?
18617Of the men you mentioned to me, who is the best one for this position?
18617Only eight?
18617Pray what is the matter, Captain Passford?
18617Science, is it?
18617The Arran?
18617The others?
18617Then you ca n''t keep a secret?
18617Then you came out as a privateer?
18617Then you do n''t wish me to confide a secret to you?
18617Then you have made out a sail?
18617Three what, does it say?
18617Was he born a deaf mute?
18617Was n''t anything said about the operations of the future?
18617Was that where you learned to listen at my cabin door, and to conceal yourself under the berth in my state room?
18617We have almost a double crew on board, Captain Passford, and what can eight men do to capture this vessel?
18617Well, Mr. Flint, what do you think of our crew?
18617Well, what does he say? 18617 What are those vessels off there, Christy?"
18617What are you about here?
18617What are you about, Dave?
18617What are you doing there?
18617What business can the Navy Department have with me now? 18617 What can they know that we do n''t know in regard to this vessel?"
18617What can we expect when a mere boy is put in command of a steamer like this one?
18617What could have put such an idea as that into your head?
18617What did I say to the other person?
18617What did he say?
18617What does all this mean?
18617What has become of them?
18617What in the world is the matter with you, Christy?
18617What is that?
18617What is the first word?
18617What makes you think so, Flint?
18617What might that be?
18617What officer, Captain Passford?
18617What shall I do, father, run away from them?
18617What vessel did you take her to be?
18617What was he there for? 18617 What was that, Neal?"
18617What waters, sir? 18617 What''s the news, Dave?"
18617Where are you going now? 18617 Where away?"
18617Where away?
18617Where were the officers?
18617Who are you, sir?
18617Who are you, young man?
18617Who is he?
18617Who is the present third lieutenant?
18617Who under the canopy are you?
18617Why did the Navy Department instruct me in my sealed orders to look out for these steamers, if I was to do so in a Pickwickian sense?
18617Why did the men run off?
18617Why do n''t you answer my question, and tell me where you are going?
18617Why is it decidedly good from me rather than from anybody else?
18617Why not? 18617 Why not?
18617Why should n''t they swallow it, hook, bait, and sinker? 18617 Will you excuse me a moment or two while I attend to a necessary duty?"
18617Will you please to tell me what has happened, sir, or what is going to happen?
18617Will you promise on your honor as a man that you will not reveal what you write to any person whatever?
18617Would it have been kind on the part of a near relative to allow his own brother to pass out of Mobile Bay in the Bellevite?
18617You are a Maine man, Flint: were you ever in this town?
18617You are at work on the engine of the Ocklockonee, are you?
18617You do n''t? 18617 You have named Mr. Amblen, Mr. Passford; is he just the officer you would select if the matter were left to you?"
18617You know that he is dumb?
18617You mean Pink, the deaf mute? 18617 You say you can keep a secret, Dave?"
18617Amblen?"
18617As a prisoner of war--""As what?"
18617Baskirk?"
18617Blowitt?"
18617But about the speed of our ship?"
18617But are you going to be a nigger again, and call white men''Massa?''
18617But why has she stopped her screw, or reduced her speed to four knots?"
18617By the way, Captain Passford, do n''t you think that a rather queer name has been given to our steamer?
18617CHAPTER XXIX THE NEW COMMANDER OF THE VIXEN"Have I done anything to offend the flag- officer, or has he no confidence in me?"
18617Can I trust you to make these copies?"
18617Christy read it, and then wrote,"What were you doing at the door?"
18617Do you surrender?"
18617Do you think you could take the Bronx up to the landing?"
18617Do you understand me perfectly, Dave?"
18617Do you understand what I mean, Dave?"
18617Fillbrook?"
18617Flint?"
18617Flint?"
18617Flint?"
18617Flint?"
18617Flint?"
18617Have you any suggestion to make, Mr. Flint?
18617He was audacious, was n''t he?"
18617How is it with our men forward?"
18617How long have you been in my room, Dave?"
18617How many artillerists or soldiers do they keep here?"
18617Hungerford?"
18617Hungerford?"
18617I should like to ask if many of the officers of the old navy are young gentlemen like yourself?"
18617I suppose you embarked in this steamer with the desire to reach some other place?"
18617In what respect?"
18617Is he qualified for the peculiar duty before you?"
18617Is my reputation so bad as that?"
18617Is that it, father?"
18617It was:"Do n''t you remember me?"
18617Lillyworth?"
18617Lillyworth?"
18617Lillyworth?"
18617Passford?"
18617Passford?"
18617Passford?"
18617Sampson?"
18617Sampson?"
18617Sampson?"
18617Suppose we should wake it up, and have to make for the bay, can we get out of it without putting the boats under the guns of the battery?"
18617The man who has been cleaning the brass work on the doors?"
18617What are you about?"
18617What do you think of him?"
18617What is the next word?"
18617What steamer is that in which you came, Paul?"
18617What was that noise?"
18617When a man is as deaf as the foremast of the ship what would he be doing at the door?"
18617Where was the fight?"
18617Will you surrender your sword, or will you have the battle now?
38418MAJOR- GENERAL GEORGE B. MCCLELLAN:When may we expect General Reynolds here?
38418[ 25] Before General McLaws found me, I wrote General Smith,--Can you reinforce me?
38418After a time we were challenged by an outlying guard,"Who comes there?"
38418As we passed these officers, the one with the peculiar hat called out in a loud voice,--"''What troops are those?''
38418But that is not the question, colonel; the question is,"Is it right to surrender this army?"
38418Ca n''t you apply this idea to advantage on your side on the roads that General Grant will be obliged to travel if he goes to Burkeville?
38418Can we do anything to aid your movements?
38418Can you not occupy your leisure time in preparing your memoirs of the war?
38418Can you row the boat ashore, Without paddle or an oar, Billy boy?"
38418Davis(?
38418Do you know any reliable people, living near and east of Knoxville, from whom I might get information of the condition, strength, etc., of the enemy?
38418During my last visit he seemed more concerned for me than usual, and on one of his calls asked,--"Marse Jim, do you belong to any church?"
38418Ernst Poth(?
38418General Field inquired of a passing officer,"What''s up?"
38418General Lee exclaimed,''Where is Anderson?
38418Has there been any movement in that direction by our troops?
38418Have you any maps that you can give or lend me?
38418I inquired,"Did General Johnston send you to communicate that order?"
38418If the enemy has been beaten at Chattanooga, do we not gain by delay at this point?
38418If we have been defeated at Chattanooga, do we not risk our entire force by an assault here?
38418In preparing to take the field, in view of the abandonment of Richmond, is it your desire to keep our wagons about our camps that we may move at once?
38418Pickett said,"General, shall I advance?"
38418Said one,''Oh, general, what will history say of the surrender of the army in the field?''
38418Shall we continue to send them or keep them with us?...
38418Should we hesitate, then, about putting a few who have made immense fortunes at our expense to a little inconvenience by impressing their gold?
38418The commander asked,"What troops are these?"
38418Then turning to me, he said,''General Mahone, I have no other troops, will you take your division to Sailor''s Creek?''
38418Where is Ewell?
38418Will you please keep those people back?''
38418Will you send my letter to General Grant, and arrange with General Ord for the interview?
38418has the army dissolved?''
38418said one of my companions,"have n''t the keows come up?"
38418why did you do so?"
37813Hast thou gold?
37813What trace do the Tarentines retain of the hardy, rugged discipline of Sparta? 37813 Where was thine à � gis, Pallas, that appalled Stern Alaric and Havoc on their way?"
37813But after their long period of existence and progress, what have the Slave Faction left for the historian to contemplate with satisfaction?
37813But shall this shield for the executioner obstruct justice, or reverence and admiration for the remembrance of the virtues of the nobler victims?
37813Do the Confederate authorities claim the right to reduce to a state of slavery free men, prisoners of war captured by them?
37813Do you believe these to be of the same kind that their fathers and grandfathers were?
37813Does not the same law affect man?
37813During the existence of the slave system, and the long period of its progress, what has it produced to enrich the heritage of the human mind?
37813Has the white man gained in similar ratio?
37813Has the world''s history a parallel to this devotion?
37813Have the European races advanced in these latitudes in strength of mind and body with equal ratio as the black man?
37813I have seven children?
37813If this deficiency of a half a million of rations existed, how can it be explained?
37813In which are the evidences the most positive of a fraternal religion and an advanced civilization?
37813It was the leaders who were responsible for the crimes of the sedition; and what of humanity could be expected from men degenerated in blood?
37813Think ye then that Nature does not act in the same manner in softening the savage tempers of men?
37813Think ye to scare me with your brandished hands, ye whom I led myself in bonds to Rome?"
37813Was it recklessness, was it perversity, or was it malice aforethought, that withheld from the prisoners the means of shelter?
37813Was munition bread brought from a distance to supply the deficiency?
37813What besides misery, violence, and crime have they bequeathed to the black man?
37813What beyond this appalling cloud of ignorance have they left as legacy to the poor white?
37813What can we, in extenuation, ascribe to recklessness, what to ignorance?
37813What of noble intelligence could be looked for from mental faculties long since degraded?
37813What shall I do?"
37813When and whence, we will ask?
37813When such sentiments prevailed at Richmond, what could be expected in kindness by those who were looked upon with hatred and as worthy of death?
37813Where are the holy and pure traditions, the bright recollections?
37813Where are they and their descendants?
37813Where are they?
37813Where is the instance of a fallen man, class, or nation?
37813Where now are the countless hosts of Romans, Gauls, and Vandals that have occupied Northern Africa in past times?
37813Which can civilization curse the most, London or Amsterdam?
37813Who will say that Nature and Liberty were the genii who directed the labors of the leaders of the Rebellion?
37813Who will say that this resort to arms was an insurrection of justice in favor of the weak, or that it was a revolt of nature against tyranny?
37813Who will wonder at the display of barbarity and audacity when the statistics of education and ignorance are exhibited?
37813Will it give ease or bring congratulation to the broken and aching hearts who yet revere the memory of the thirty thousand victims?
37813Will it now forget the noble sacrifice of its sons amid the debasing influences of commerce and manufacture?
37813Will the blood of these living monsters expiate the martyrdom of the host of dead heroes?
37813With what treasures, in the estimation of mankind, have they enriched themselves, or left as inheritance to their degenerate offspring?
37813for an attentive world to study, imitate, and admire?
39720And why not?
39720And why should they be exasperated at all?
39720And, if deportation should prove impossible, what system could be devised whereby the two races could dwell together peacefully?
39720As we are more than forty- six years distant from our own Civil War, is it not incumbent on Northerners to endeavor to see the Southern side?
39720Every township will want its home regiment; every plantation its garrison; and what will be left for its field army?"
39720Free them and make them politically and socially our equals?"
39720How about compensation to owners?
39720It ran:"Do you belong to the rebel band Fighting for your home?"
39720The question was, would this radical idea ultimately dominate the Republican party?
39720The questions for Southern emancipationists were: How could the slaves be freed, and in what time?
39720What next?
39720Where could the freed slaves be sent, and how?
39720Why should Southerners be"fearful"when they were intercepting all the dangerous circulars, etc., they could find?
39720Why should the Southerners of that day go_ wild_ over conduct for which the professor of this era has no word of condemnation?
39720Why should they announce a theory of the Constitution that was so full of dangerous possibilities?
31339''Question.--How did you sleep before you received those blankets? 31339 Another witness testifies:"''Question.--Were you hungry all the time?
31339From this time forward until the close of the war, in so far as the Western army was concerned, we heard no more of the question,''Will they fight?'' 31339 Have you not mistaken the cause?
31339It is clear that the public good requires slavery to be abolished; but in what manner is it to be done? 31339 March 10th.--The president has the reins now, and Congress will be more obedient; but can they leave the city?
31339Now, why were the colored troops left unsupported? 31339 The blacks had been useful soldiers for the northern army, why should they not be made to fight for their masters?"
31339The soldiers of the Army of the Potomac did this very thing last summer in front of Arlington Heights; are the negroes any better than they? 31339 V. What is the difference, considering the above points between colored troops recruited from the free States and those from the slave States?
31339V.''What is the difference, considering the above points, between colored troops recruited from the free States and those from the slave States?'' 31339 V.''What is the difference, considering the above points, between colored troops recruited from the free States and those from the slave States?''
31339Were the rebels all dead? 31339 You know me now, do n''t you?
31339''Did you see any men shot after the place was taken?
31339''Under which king, Benzonian?''"
31339''What company did you fight with?
31339''What for?''
31339''What have you?''
31339And what shall we say of the halls of learning in which were gathered his eager pupils?
31339And where are our arms?
31339And_ Second_, How can the State be assisted by the general government in effecting the change?
31339Are you sure he was there when this was going on?
31339Are you sure they were wounded men, and not dead, when they were put in there?
31339As they started away the old man turned to me, and with tears in his eyes, said,"Will you take them all?
31339But can this be so?
31339But were not all guilty?
31339But what, my countrymen, withheld the ready arm of vengeance from executing instant justice on the vile assassins?
31339But, Sir, whose fault is this?
31339By whom were they shot?
31339Can an army keep the field, and be active and efficient, on the same fare that kills prisoners of war at a frightful percentage?
31339Can it be hoped that the colored man will be better able to protect himself from the infinite ingenuity of fraud than the white?
31339Captain Romeyn, who witnessed the incident, and who was greatly amused by the fellow''s trepidation, asked him if he was frightened?
31339Col. Streight''s command was so pleased with the gallantry of our men that many of its members on being asked,''What regiment?''
31339Did he try to stop the shooting?
31339Did not American soldiers fight at Bunker Hill with negroes in the ranks, one of whom shot down Major Pitcairn as he mounted the works?
31339Did not American soldiers fight at Fort Griswold with black men?
31339Did not American soldiers fight at Red Bank with a black regiment from your own State, sir?
31339Did the men who were shot after they had surrendered have arms in their hands?
31339Did they bury any alive?
31339Did they kill them before they burned them?
31339Did they not fight with black men in almost every battle- field of the Revolution?
31339Did they say anything while they were shooting?
31339Did you know Forrest?
31339Did you not see symptoms of the same things upon the plantations here upon our arrival, although, under much less favorable circumstances for revolt?
31339Did you notice how they were nailed?
31339Did you see any buildings burned?
31339Did you see any buried alive?
31339Did you see any buried there?
31339Did you see any buried?
31339Did you see any other officers that you knew?
31339Did you see any person shot besides yourself?
31339Did you see any rebel officers about there when this was going on?
31339Did you see any rebel officers about while this shooting was going on?
31339Did you see any shot the next morning?
31339Did you see anybody else shot?
31339Did you see them burn?
31339Did you see them kill any white men?
31339Did you see those on the hill shot by the officers?
31339Do you expect us to give our sanction and our approval to these things?
31339Do you know of their burning any buildings?
31339Do you know they were in there when the house was burned?
31339Do you know they were in there?
31339Do you know whether any of our men were in the buildings when they were burned?
31339Do you say the man was holding the officer''s horse, and when the officer came and took his horse he shot the man down?
31339Does not this state of things arise from the very fact of war itself?
31339Driven away by their master, with threats of violence if they return, and with no decided welcome or reception from us, what is to be their lot?
31339Forrest, turning in his saddle, very coolly replied:''We''ll whip these in our front and then turn around, and wo nt we be in their rear?
31339Had they been massacred?
31339Had they fled from the pitiless storm which our batteries had poured down upon them for so many hours?
31339Have they ever refused to do military duty when called upon?
31339Have you been a slave?
31339He was saluted with,''Well, Johnny, how goes it?''
31339Here I am, an old man; I can not work; my crops are ungathered; my negroes have all enlisted or run away, and what am I to do?"
31339How did they bury them-- white and black together?
31339How did they bury them?
31339How do you know they made their movement while the flag of truce was in?
31339How long have you been in the service?
31339How long since you lived with him?
31339How many did you see in that condition?
31339How many do you suppose you saw shot after they surrendered?
31339How many negroes do you suppose were killed after the surrender?
31339How many times were you shot?
31339How many?
31339I took charge of them, and assuming a stern look and manner, enquired,''Where are you going?''
31339If that be the case, may not some of them be useful in loading, swabbing, and firing the musket?"
31339In view of what they saw, did they still wish we had been there?
31339Is it the arrival of a negro regiment, or is it the arrival of United States troops, carrying by the act of congress freedom to this servile race?
31339Is it to be secured by that wretched resource of a set of profligate politicians, called''reconstruction?''
31339Is there anything unconstitutional in that?
31339It is haughtily asked, Who will stand in the ranks shoulder to shoulder with a negro?
31339It rests with their bones in the charnel house; who shall exhume it?"
31339Of course the Government knew nothing of this.(?)
31339On one occasion an officer was ordered by Gen. Birney to take station at a town(?)
31339P. MILES, RICHMOND, VA."Has the bill for the execution of abolition prisoners, after January next, been passed?
31339The flags are where, do they kiss the morning light, Do they wave in the battle''s gale, are their stars bright, Illumining the path of the brave?
31339The order must be obeyed; it was repeated; away went the Phalanx division, loudly cheering, but to what purpose did they advance?
31339The perplexing question was,''Will they stand their christening under such a hail storm as will come from those bristling Port Hudson heights?''
31339The rebels would reply,''G-- d d-- n you, why did n''t you surrender before?''
31339The secesh would be prying around there, and would come to a nigger and say,''You ai n''t dead are you?''
31339Their history is not written; it lies upon the soil watered with their blood; who shall gather it?
31339This gallant soldier,(?)
31339Those were white men?
31339To what company and regiment do you belong?
31339To what company did you belong?
31339Under what officers did you serve?
31339Upon reflection, can you doubt that the same state of things would have arisen without the presence of a colored regiment?
31339Was the door fastened up?
31339Was the economy of saving six dollars per man worth to the Treasury the ignominy of the repudiation?
31339Was there any one else there who saw that?
31339We have to hold territory in inclement and sickly places; where are the Democrats to do this?
31339Were any of them alive?
31339Were they all captured?
31339Were you a slave or a free man?
31339Were you a slave?
31339Were you a soldier at Fort Pillow?
31339Were you at Fort Pillow at the time of the fight there?
31339Were you in the fight at Fort Pillow?
31339Were you in the fight at Fort Pillow?
31339Were you in the fight at Fort Pillow?
31339Were you not too tender of the lives of those who came to fix a yoke on your necks?
31339What a moment of intense anxiety?
31339What could it mean?
31339What could resist that charge?
31339What did he say?
31339What did it avail to hurl a few thousand troops against those impregnable works?
31339What did you do before you went into the fight?
31339What happened to you afterwards?
31339What officers were they?
31339What shall be done?''
31339What was to be done?
31339What white officers did you know in our army?
31339What, then, had the Phalanx to expect of those to whom they had borne the relation of_ slave_?
31339When did you see that?
31339When was it that you saw them?
31339When were you shot?
31339When were you wounded?
31339Where are you from?
31339Where could experienced officers be found for such an organization?
31339Where did you enlist?
31339Where did you enlist?
31339Where did you live?
31339Where is that faith of the Government now?
31339Where was their leader Sheridan?
31339Where were they?
31339Where were you raised?
31339Where were you raised?
31339Where were you raised?
31339Where?
31339Who could answer?
31339Who endured more cheerfully the hardships of the camp, or faced with greater courage the perils of the fight?
31339Who knows but he was the last soldier who fell belonging to the Army of Northern Virginia?"
31339Who rallied with more alacrity in response to the summons of danger?
31339Who set the house on fire?
31339Who shot you?
31339Who was your master?
31339Why should not the negro contribute whatever is in his power for the cause in which he is as deeply interested as other men?
31339Why were the officers informed by General Dwight that there were clear grounds beyond Sandy Creek?
31339Why were they sent on such hopeless missions?
31339Will you state what happened to you there?
31339Will your honors grant the liberty, and give me the command of the party?
31339With this spirit infused in the confederate army, what else than barbarity could be expected?
31339Would it not be well to take up this suggestion and make it known to the freedmen?
31339Yet, who more than they deserve the thanks of the country, and the gratitude of succeeding generations?
31339You did not see them?
31339You have said the location is unhealthy for the soldier; it is not to the negro; is it not best that these unemployed Africans should do this labor?

31339do you not feel the goads and stings of conscious guilt pierce through your savage bosoms?

40767And do you remember how I used to ride about alone on your pet horse?
40767And little Frank has lifted his blue eyes to his mother as if to inquire,''Will that man take away my aunty?''
40767And where had this very heavy, old music book, in his possession, been found?
40767At the end of his visit he came to bid us farewell, and said to me:"Miss Nannie, I have a request to make of you, will you grant it?"
40767Bostick?"
40767He exclaimed,"Why Mrs. De Saussure, what are you doing here?"
40767He sprang from his chair exclaiming,"What do you know about her?"
40767In the meantime, before we could expect any monetary return from this industry, what else could we do to better our condition?
35479A furore Normanorum, Libera nos, O Domine?
35479Oh, does the pale face haunt her, dear friend, that looks on thee? 35479 What tidings?"
35479Who cometh?
35479And Patterson, the tardy, where is he?
35479And neither land nor home for_ me_, Because a_ mother''s_ hope is gone?
35479And we, whose dear ones cluster there, We, mothers, who have let them go-- Our all, perhaps-- how shall we bear That which another week may show?
35479And where is Abe, the Great, With his cap and cloak of state?
35479And who could believe its fragrant light Would e''er be freighted with the breath of blight?
35479And will not evening call another star Out of the infinite regions of the night, To mark this day in heaven?
35479And, under God, whose thunder need we fear?
35479And_ what_ the end?
35479BY GEORGE HERBERT SASS, OF S. C. Watchman, what of the night?
35479But_ now_, can it be that Virginia''s name Fails to waken the homage and love Of e''en one of her sons?
35479Can manhood fly, And, recreant, brave The silent scorn, the averted eye-- Decked in its chains-- a cringing slave?
35479Cease the triumph-- days of darkness Loom upon us from afar: Can a woman''s voice for battle Ring the fatal note of war?
35479Could you brand us as villeins and serfs, know ye not What fierce, sullen hatred lurks under the scar?
35479Dare they not risk_ one_ shot, To make report grandiloquent Of aid they rendered not?
35479Did they mercy show When they bound the mother that bore us?
35479Does any falter?
35479Does this sacrifice compare With the battle- field red flowing With the brave hearts offered there?
35479Dost thou pause?
35479For whom these vile, these ignominious chains-- These fetters, for our brother''s hands prepared?
35479Guarded is every street, Brutal the hireling foe; Is there one heart here will boldly dare So brave a deed to do?
35479He repented; then, he sickened-- Was he pining for the sea?
35479In the dusk of the forest shade A sallow and dusty group reclined; Gallops a horseman up the glade--"Where will I your leader find?
35479Is it that those intonations Thrill him thus from head to knee?
35479Is there none to warn the camp, None from that anxious throng?
35479Is yet no movement made?
35479Kentucky boys and girls have we-- From us ye may not take them; Sad- hearted will ye give them up, And for the foe forsake them?
35479Now, come what may, whose favor need we court?
35479Oh, say, can you see, through the gloom and the storm, More bright for the darkness, that pure constellation?
35479Oh, where is Scott, the chief?
35479Oh, who would not stand With his life in his hand, To shield such a land from the feet of the foe?
35479Or is she laughing, singing in careless girlish glee?
35479Our lives are dearly purchased, When bondage is the price; And what is home, where freedom Withers''neath the tyrant''s vice?
35479Repentant?
35479Say, can we peace or honor know While there the accursèd banner waves?
35479See you no boats or vessels yet?
35479See, see, how Sumter''s banner trails, They''re signaling for aid, See you no boats of armed men?
35479Shall Southern men, by mercenaries bought, Be sold to vassalage, from son to sire?
35479Shall Washington rest, while a wail of discord Reminds him the North is forgetting the Lord?
35479Shall these degenerate hordes, to avarice sold, Crush freedom''s sons, and Freedom''s altars spoil?
35479Sons of freedom, can you linger When you hear the battle''s roar, Fondly dallying with your pleasures When the foe is at your door?
35479That she bends to a tyrant in shame?
35479The Lily calmly braves the storm, And shall the Palm- tree fear?
35479The man, you know, Who kissed the Testament; To keep the Constitution?
35479The oppressor''s hateful thrall?"
35479Then loud ring the anvil, the hammer, and bell; The South her new anthem, say what does it tell?
35479Though dark the tempest lower, What arms will wear the tyrants chains, What dastard heart will cower?
35479Want a weapon?
35479Want a weapon?
35479Was Virginia in danger?
35479Watchman, what of the night?
35479What matter if our feet are torn?
35479What matter if our shoes are worn?
35479What would these men, whose lives black treachery stains-- Conspirators, to plunder long endeared?
35479What_ could_, what_ should it be_, than what it_ was_?
35479Who dares to deny A resolute people their right to be free?
35479Who may describe it-- say?
35479Who prates of Coercion?
35479Who talks of Coercion?
35479Why are we forever speaking Of the warriors of old?
35479Why brings he not relief?
35479Why can not We be Brothers?
35479Why can not we be brothers?
35479Will they fly from her shores, or desert her in need?
35479Will they tell her her glories have fled or grown pale?
35479Will they trample her glorious flag in the dust, Or load with reproaches her name?
35479Will those who"know them by heart,"and have"sung them in camp and in battle,"help to rescue them from oblivion?
35479Will_ Virginians_ their backs ever turn On their mother, and fly when the danger is nigh, And her claim to their fealty spurn?
35479Woman''s heart is soft and tender, But''tis proud and faithful, too; Shall she be her land''s defender?
35479Wouldst thou have me love thee, dearest, With a woman''s proudest heart, Which shall ever hold thee nearest, Shrined in its inmost heart?
35479[ 1] I. Hath not the morning dawned with added light?
35479[ 23] WHY CAN NOT WE BE BROTHERS?
35479_ Now_ see our holy cause betrayed, And recreant prove to all our vows?
35479_ Union with traitors?_ Hear ye not That cry for vengeance, deep, Where hand to hand, and foot to foot, Our glittering columns sweep?
35479_ Union with traitors?_ Hear ye not That cry for vengeance, deep, Where hand to hand, and foot to foot, Our glittering columns sweep?
35479_ Union_, with tastes dissimilar?
35479didst thou stay Throughout that agonizing day, To watch where victory would lay Her laurels at Manassas?
35479see ye not the sight sublime, Unequaled in all previous time, Presented in this Southern clime, The home of chivalry?
35479shall she invoke Another''s hand to right her?
35479shall this groveling race, who cringe for gold, Make laws for Southern men, on Southern soil?
35479shall we now throw down the blade, And doff the helmet from our brows?
35479shall worse than pirate slaves Strangle your children in their mothers''arms, And spit on dust that fills your fathers''graves?
35479soldier?
35479stay-- this Southern land not_ mine_?
35479submit to be ruled By the minions of Abraham Lincoln, the fool?
35479think to bind the South?
35479what a nation''s fame?
35479what to_ me_ that name, Should I in vain demand my son?
35479when will this warfare end?
35479who can view it unshaken?
35479who could deem the dews of doom Upon the blushing lips could cling?
35479will this the conflict end?
35479would not grow warm, When thoughts like these give cheer?
35479you hold yourselves as freemen?
39346''How does late election sit with you? 39346 _ Commissioner Davis._ Would you fire into the city of Baltimore?
39346Another question is, What shall be done with the national territory?
39346Are there not wisdom and patriotism enough in the land to settle these questions?
39346Are we to have a war of sections?
39346Can the Queen of England do so much?"
39346Do n''t you know him?''
39346Do you approve?
39346If so, how were they to come, by land or water?
39346In what part of the Constitution could such a power be found?
39346Or was she temporarily to isolate herself and wait until the frenzy had in some measure spent its force and reason had begun to resume its sway?
39346Shall it belong exclusively to the North or the South, or shall it be shared by both, as it was gained by the blood and treasure of both?
39346Shall one be taken and another left?
39346Standing with the principles of''76 behind us, who can deny them the right?
39346Was Baltimore to be compelled at once to determine whether she would side with the North or with the South?
39346Was it true that a citizen held his liberty subject to the arbitrary will of any man?
39346Was there indeed to be war between the sections, or could it yet, by some unlooked- for interposition, be averted?
39346Were more troops to be forced through the city at any cost?
39346Were the guns of Fort McHenry to be turned upon the inhabitants?
39346What but the right of self- defense?
39346What course, then, was left to the South if it was determined to maintain its rights under the Constitution?
39346What did it mean in 1861?
39346What is a matter of a few millions of dollars or a few forts?
39346What is it, if it is proper that I should know?''
39346What is your judgment in the matter?''
39346What precedent existed for such an act?
39346When are these scenes to cease?
39346Where did the President of the United States acquire such a power?
39346Who denies them the right?
39346Who should accompany the President on his perilous ride?
39346Why had it never been discovered before?
39346Will they be good men to send out to kill Lincoln and his men?
39346Would the Border States interfere and demand peace?
39346_ Chief Justice._--The commanding officer, then, declines to obey the writ?
40233Ai n''t it awful?
40233He is,said our man,"Is that you Jim?"
40233I reckon,said Yank,"but s''pose ye hain''t noticed no lead slung over thar nor nothin''?"
40233Ike, how do you like the grub?
40233Is Tom Jones there?
40233Is that your hole your stan''nen in over thar?
40233They treat us like a lot of kids, do n''t they? 40233 Wal, do n''t you know Mister, I''ve had some tarned good shots at you?"
40233Was a good many blown up?
40233What are you throwing that spade for, Pat?
40233What have I done?
40233Yes,came the answer,"and say Tom, ca n''t you meet me between the lines?
40233He said,"What you doing up there?"
40233How is that?"
40233I''ve got a roll of greenbacks and I want to send them to the old folks in Missouri?"
40233On page 60, a question mark was added before"What have I done?".
40233One night I heard a rebel from their pits say to our men,"Say, Yanks, what you''uns digging that big ditch for?"
40233One night a voice said,"Is any of the boys of the 6th Missouri in the rifle pits over there?"
40233Some reader of these lines may ask,"Why did n''t General Grant detail men for the storming party?"
40233The boys picked up the frightened darkey and some one said,"Where did you come from?"
40233What could they do but submit?
40233What has become of that flag?
40233found an echo in every loyal heart, and we young men found ourselves asking in fierce, hot whispers,"Why have you fired on the flag of my country?"
39911A retired tobacconist adopted for the motto of a fresh coat of arms to be emblazoned on his carriage panels:"_ Quid Rides?_"Why do you laugh?
39911A retired tobacconist adopted for the motto of a fresh coat of arms to be emblazoned on his carriage panels:"_ Quid Rides?_"Why do you laugh?
39911But as for the female line, who knows?
39911Did not each base of our supplies rest on a waterway patrolled by gunboats?
39911Do you laugh at him?
39911Frederick the Great shouted to a fleeing battle- straggler,"Wretch, wouldst thou live forever?"
39911If so, what conclusions will posterity deduce as to the anatomical development of the speechless inferior Mule?
39911If so, who will begrudge?
39911In short, is the horse to be thus dismissed into obliquity, so to speak?
39911Is the war charger to be cut off thus with no extra allowance for training or pedigree?
39911Oftenest perhaps he is an ex- captain, for does not every war evolve the greatest captain of the age as its ultimate hero?
39911Were not all our armies named from streams along which their fraternal tin- clads trolleyed and thundered?
39911When such things can be, and overcome us like a summer sunshade, why marvel that the navy had no Sutler?
39911Where is the Sutler now?
39911Where was the hilarious Sutler then with his bluegrass fertility of resource?
39911Whether applied in honor and tenderness, or in derision and mockery, who can tell?
39911Who hath hoarseness of voice?
39911Who hath redness of eyes?
39911Why should he?
39911Why then differentiate?
39911cried the tailor, bristling with defensive indignation,''what in the world have you been doing to that suit?''
39911pass muster?
39584Could the prisoners walk?
39584Dis ya chile done cum down fo a wok; he done tiad out, yo''help him back, wo n''t yo'', massa?
39584Oh, I have n''t any five cents,replied Olean,"but say, Michigan, you would look mighty fine going down those stairs, would n''t you?"
39584Say, Michigan, what are you looking at?
39584What are you doing here?
39584What room do you belong to and who said you might leave it?
39584Where, where?
39584Who are you talking to?
39584Are they wrong in this conviction?
39584But what parental anxiety could hold their abounding life from immediate sympathy with nature smiling all around?
39584During a lull some one sang out,"You fellows over by the north gate, tell us, has a spring broken out?"
39584He was asked,"Where did you put those who were sick?"
39584How shall it be done?
39584Need it be said that these two men found themselves comrades, indeed?
39584Pointing to an uncombed, unwashed, ragged comrade standing close by, he said,"Will the brother from Chicago pray?"
39584Questions such as the following naturally arise: Was Providence Spring a miracle?
39584Say, Johnny, if God do n''t do what mamma asks I wo n''t have any papa, will I?"
39584She thought to herself,"Why not now?
39584The sergeant then takes up a piece in his hand and says,"Whose is this?"
39584Then addressing him, she said,"Wah yo''come from?
39584These were easily issued, but what shall be done with the bone which towered on the meat board above the diminutive strips of beef?
39584WAS IT A MIRACLE?
39584Wah yo''come from?"
39584Was It a Miracle?
39584Where else could men look in their dire extremity?
39584Where is your five cents?"
39584Who can tell what crises of peril may in the future break in upon our beloved land?
39584Why not now?"
39584Wilt Thou give to them a new heart, a clean heart?
39584Wirtz that stockade timbers were out of line and should be set right?
39584Would the saving relief have been withheld if prayer had not been offered?
41616What regiment is that?
41616Among them was a young girl some sixteen years old, who was waving a United States flag and taunting us with"Why do n''t you fight under this flag?"
41616Can a more deplorable picture be drawn?
41616Can you do it?"
41616Did they come?
41616He said,"Clowney, where is Kilpatrick?"
41616He said,"What are you doing behind, my little fellow?"
41616On reaching me he said,"Where is your gun, and why are you not shooting?"
41616Still, to make safe, I inquired,"Who is your colonel?"
41616They inquired of us,"What regiment are you?"
41616We had not gone far when we were hailed from the side of the road,"Who''s there?"
41616We knew something was wrong, but what was it?
41616When I got back Jim Hagood said,"What have you got?"
40477And who are you?
40477And why in the Confederate army?
40477I suppose you will want to get home as quickly as possible, wo n''t you?
40477Shall I run over there too?
40477Who did this outrage?
40477Why do you want to see that old Ape?
40477You shared my friendship, shared my bread, even, did n''t you?
40477And where was Braggs''army?
40477As he fell from his horse the adjutant sprang to the ground and cried,"Who shot the officer of the day?"
40477At the crucial moment our leader_ had lost his nerve_ and_ become a coward_; or had he betrayed us?
40477But what availed it to collect his soldiers there?
40477But what could he do?
40477I had been in the Union army three years; was it not a good time to give the Rebels a trial?
40477In the car where I was, one of the astonished guards, finding himself without a gun, coolly said:"And what are you''uns going to do with we''uns?"
40477Is it any wonder that now, after the long and perilous years, it is preserved by me as a souvenir of honor?
40477The sentinel who did the killing declared that Rebels had been slipping up to his post all night, and when he would hail with"Who goes there?"
40477Then he went and leaned against a column, and, turning to the Southerner, said,"Yes, we were long together, were n''t we?"
40477Was the leader simply a coward, or was he paid for betraying us?
40477We had strange feelings, the chief of which was probably the thought: Would the enemy on the opposite bank fire into us and drown us all?
40477Were we discovered?
40477What could be done?
40477What had happened?
40477What had they left to live for?
40477What on earth were they looking at?
40477What was going to happen?
40477What was our chance?
40477What you doing away over here?"
40477Where then would have been Vicksburg, Spotsylvania, Richmond, Appomattox?
40477Where was that escaped picket?
40477Where''s your regiment?
40477Who knew how soon all of Braggs''army might be alarmed and upon us?
40477Why not move in?"
40477Why not?
40477he inquired,"or would you rather remain here awhile and look about the army?"
40477what shall I do?"
40477which way?
17955Ai nt I to get some bread before I go to bed?
17955Alf what?
17955And did my wife sell her to anybody else?
17955And how do you propose offering the bribe?
17955And how much will that amount to, altogether?
17955And may I ask of what nature your intercourse was?
17955And what do you charge for the room?
17955And what made you leave New Orleans?
17955And your sister''s?
17955Are you certain that the woman who has been carried to jail is your Mistress?
17955Are you determined to leave home,he said,"and all its pleasures; and starve in the rebel lines?
17955Besides which, what are we to do with the dirt that is dug up?
17955But tell me, gal,she continued,"whar you come from?"
17955But vot can I to for you dis morning?
17955But what?
17955But where could my wife have gone to?
17955But you certain it am my mistis?
17955By what means did you purchase her?
17955Can I see him?
17955Can you take no less, sir?
17955Could nothing be done to keep her alive, if even it were as a maniac?
17955Did she bring out plenty of money with her?
17955Did you not hear the physician say it is my neglect that had caused you to be dying?
17955Did you not hear what the physician said?
17955Did your mistress-- I beg pardon-- I meant, did my wife tell you where she was going to?
17955Do you call it charity to assist another situated as your wife is, particularly where her husband is far from her fighting for his country?
17955Do you find this lady guilty or not guilty?
17955Do you not remember me, Elsy?
17955Do you think the woman who was here could have taken it?
17955Doctor,she asked,"will my daughter recover?"
17955Does the room suit you?
17955Eva, Eva,he exclaimed,"do all these give you back to me?
17955For the matter of that, I am as anxious to leave as you are, but in the name of wonder, how are we going to manage it?
17955Goodness sakes, Auntie,interrupted Elsy,"what did you do wid de dead chile?"
17955Gootness,observed that gentleman,"did you not shay I vas for to tell vy I pring dis voman up?"
17955Has Elsy been here yet?
17955Has he refused to let you have it?
17955Have they discharged him?
17955Have you a heart?
17955Have you been able to speak to the sentinel?
17955Have you not been able to find your mistress?
17955Have you not friends there?
17955How are you, Harry, my boy? 17955 How do you know that?"
17955How is Mrs. Wentworth this morning, father?
17955How long do you suppose she will linger?
17955How much is it?
17955How te tevil could it go mitout it vash taken away py somepody?
17955How will you attach the rope to the wall?
17955I do n''t want anything, granny,Ella answered, and remained silent for a moment, when she continued:"Granny ai nt I going to die?"
17955I understand; but who is she, and her name? 17955 In case you should be going to, what?"
17955Is Mr. Elder in?
17955Is Mr. Swartz in?
17955Is there no way by which I can discover where Mrs. Wentworth is residing at present?
17955Me, sir?
17955Mother ca n''t I get something to eat?
17955Mother, what are you crying for?
17955Mother,at last said her little infant,"why do you cry?"
17955Mother,exclaimed the child, as he rose from his bed,"it is morning now; ai nt I going to get some bread?"
17955My dear madam,said Mr. Awtry,"why do you give way to tears?
17955My husband?
17955No, I forget,she answered;"but what name did your mistis hab?"
17955Oh my wifesaid Alfred,"Is this the end of our married life?
17955So she is married?
17955So you belonged to Mr. Wentworth of New Orleans, did you?
17955Stay awhile, dearest,Alfred went on, as soon as he perceived Awtry,"Look at this man-- do you know him?"
17955The money which she took, to what use was, it placed? 17955 Then I wo n''t get any bread?"
17955Vat can I do mit it?

17955Veil, I vill puy te pedstead,he said, and then enquired:"How much monish do you vant for it?"

17955Well, my good, girl, what do you wish with me?
17955Well, sir, what is the price charged for the rent of one of your rooms?
17955Well, then, do you plead guilty, or not guilty?
17955Were you ever in this country before?
17955What arrangement was that?
17955What bring you to Jackson?
17955What can I have the honor of doing for you this morning?
17955What chile is it, Auntie?
17955What could have induced him to pay me this visit?
17955What do you intend doing, now the ports are blockaded, and no one can leave the country?
17955What do you say to bribing one of the sentinels?
17955What do you say to scaling the walls?
17955What do you want with him?
17955What do you wish, darling?
17955What does this mean?
17955What evidence?
17955What induced you to steal?
17955What is that verdict, gentlemen?
17955What is the matter with you?
17955What is your name?
17955What kind a chile is de one you had at your cabin?
17955What luck have you had?
17955What made Mrs. Wentworth leave New Orleans?
17955What news?
17955What was your master''s name?
17955What will you give me?
17955Where is he now while his child lies dead through destitution, and his wife feels the brand of the_ thief_ imprinted upon her forehead? 17955 Where is her husband?"
17955Where is she?
17955Where is your master now?
17955Where will we get the means from?
17955Who gave you the information?
17955Who would''a believe it? 17955 Why ai nt you got any bread?"
17955Why did I come here? 17955 Why do you imagine such a thing?"
17955Why do you speak so?
17955Why is there no bread?
17955Why, how could he have arrived in our lines?
17955Why, my darling?
17955Why?
17955Will that be enough to pay for a coffin for my child?
17955Will you buy the bedstead then?
17955Will you lend a small sum of money on it?
17955Will you let me come a little nearer?
17955Will you,he asked, speaking to the man,"be willing to wait until to- morrow before you take possession?"
17955Yes, and do you know anything about him?
17955Yes,Alfred answered,"but why do you ask?"
17955Yes,replied Mr. Ellington,"I visited America a few years ago, but why do you ask?"
17955You are not inclined to show the white feather now, are you?
17955You have,answered Dr. Humphries, rather astonished at the intelligence,"where is she?"
17955You say you do n''t know de name?
17955You spoke my husband''s name,she said in a hoarse tone,"what of him?"
17955You were not hurt, were you?
17955Your companion spoke of my husband as his friend; does he know where he is at present, and if so, can I not see him?
17955Accept your offer?"
17955After eating for a few minutes in silence, Horace suddenly said:"Charlie, what do you think of this war?"
17955And for her-- the soldier''s wife?
17955And now-- but why trouble the reader with any further remarks of the past?
17955Awtry?"
17955But do you tink he will bring de chile home, yah, and take care ob him?"
17955But how is it when the innocent suffer?
17955But vot price to you charge?"
17955But while we witness the guilty revelling in wealth and affluence, how often are the innocent plunged in want?
17955But why describe my sufferings?
17955By the way,"he continued, changing the conversation,"have you heard what has become of the supposed spy arrested in the court house?"
17955By the way,"he continued,"you said you suspected him to be the same man who caused your wife to be turned out of New Orleans?"
17955Can I get another bid?"
17955Can you devise one by which I can get away?"
17955Do they bring me happiness?
17955Do they restore my angel daughter?
17955Do you know why?"
17955Elder?"
17955Elsy curtsied as she enquired,"Shall I tell my Master''bout dis, sah?"
17955For where?
17955Go where?
17955Has he not suffered me to feel the pangs of hunger, to see my children deprived of bread, to permit me to stain my whole existence with a crime?
17955He could not lend or give her a paltry pittance; and why, forsooth?
17955Her appeal for charity had been rejected, and can we blame her if she yielded to the tempter and took the money lying before her?
17955How many men are there who live in ease and comfort, while their souls are burdened with sins?
17955Is it profanity to say that the eye of God had wandered from them?
17955Is she raving?"
17955Is this the work of God?
17955Kind reader, have you ever been to New Orleans?
17955Of what avail were her supplications to God?
17955Of what use was the money she had committed a crime to obtain?
17955Tell me Elsy,"he continued,"tell me what caused my wife to be turned out of the city?"
17955That she took the money is undeniable, but why did she take it?
17955These are your children?"
17955Was he not of the world as man generally finds it?
17955Wentworth.--"Is there anything I can do for you?"
17955Wentworth?"
17955Wentworth?"
17955What are their sufferings?
17955What can be the matter?"
17955What cared he for the sighs of the desolate, the appeals of the hungry, or the tears of the helpless?
17955What cared he longer for this world?
17955What do you say about digging a tunnel, and escaping by that route?"
17955What has God done to aid me in my misery?
17955What have I gained by severing the ties of love and leaving a happy home, to struggle for the liberty of my country?
17955What is that that makes man''s heart cold as the mountain tops of Kamtschatka?
17955What mercy could we attribute to God, did he willingly entail misery upon the innocent, or punish them for the crimes of the guilty?
17955What was de leetle gal name?"
17955What were words of consolation to her?
17955What will you bid for her?"
17955When did you first call in a medical practitioner?"
17955When he fell, pierced by the bullets of his comrades, was there not a murder committed?
17955When our maidens are ravished by the hated foe and despoiled of that Virtue held sacred in Heaven, is it the work of God?
17955When our temples are profaned by the bacchanalian orgies of the Northern hordes, does the Infinite invite them to desecrate His altars?
17955When the creeping babe is immolated by the savages of the North, is it a dispensation of Providence?
17955While they, the curse of the world, how was it with them?
17955Who did you buy her from?"
17955Who would not weep if they were parted from those they love, and were cast in a strange land without a friend, and with scarcely any means?
17955Why did I bring my child ill and dying from a shelter, and carry her through the night air, until I found a home in your lonely cabin?
17955Why in the name of wonder will you continue to look upon the dark side of the picture?
17955Why is he not here to succor the infant boy who yet remains, and who may soon follow his sister?
17955Why should he care for the misery of strangers?
17955and then, he added dryly,"there is one thing certain, my trunk(?)
17955do you desire to marry his widow?"
17955do you not know me?"
17955echoed his friend,"What in the name of all that is glorious, do you require any preparations for?"
17955exclaimed Alfred, raising her head and gazing fondly at the wan and emaciated features of his wife"_ is this_ all I find?"
17955exclaimed Harry,"are you going to raise any more objections?"
17955exclaimed Mrs. Wentworth,"where am I to go to?
17955exclaimed the Doctor,"and how was it that I have heard nothing about it until now?"
17955exclaimed the Doctor,"for what?"
17955he answered,"I recollect you now, and vat do you vant?"
17955is there on earth a spectacle so fearful to behold as_ starvation_?
17955ven vill te place pe rid of all te peggers?"
17955what become ob your mistis and de childen?"
17955what is it?
17955where is he?
17955who can forget it?
17955why did you not come earlier?
40890All right,said he,"what will you have?"
408901, where the guard calls out,"Who comes there?"
40890Besides, what would I have had to put in my diary?
40890But what shall I say to father about it?
40890Can I ever repay them?
40890Can any one imagine our surprise and our great delight at finding the 150th N. Y. in camp right across the road from our camp?
40890Cross and crabbed, sore in every joint, and mad at everything and everybody, we crawled out of our beds(?)
40890Dear me, what will father and mother do now?
40890Do they tell us this to keep up our courage, or has the beginning of the end really come?
40890Have I ever described a hard- tack to you?
40890He was not hurt, and after his staff had caught up and helped him on his horse, he came up and said,"To what regiment do you men belong?"
40890How do you do, and have you a leave of absence for me on or about you?
40890I suppose each one, like myself, has crowded the time full of visiting, for who knows when we will have another chance?
40890I wonder if my letters give them as much pleasure?
40890If the whole 19th Army Corps together ca n''t get in, how can a thousand men expect to do it?
40890If they blame us for the condition we are in, who brought these conditions about?
40890One fellow, after filling up on it, said"What''s the use of women anyway?
40890Shall I ever get over longing for that home?
40890Was ever anything more tantalizing than that?
40890We cook our own victuals, wash and mend our own clothes, make up our own beds-- and what more could women do?"
40890We have a good team, a beautiful day, and have been stopped at nearly every house long enough to say"how are you?"
40890What are our folks at to- day?
40890What if my leave of absence should come before pay day?
40890What would we do if our old friend, the Mississippi, should dry up?
40890What would we do without the brook running past us?
40890What''s the matter up there?
40890When will I get clear from the hospital?
40890Where is that storming party?
40890Why could n''t they wait until we got there?
40890Will they ever get strong again?
21681Ah, Sempland, have you told your little tale?
21681And condemned me as an utter scoundrel, a blackguard?
21681And he is going to blow up the_ Wabash_, the admiral''s ship, did you say?
21681And she has never done any damage to the enemy?
21681And the_ Wabash_?
21681And you did this for him alone?
21681And you do not love me?
21681And you forgive me?
21681And you obeyed?
21681Another man?
21681Are you all agreed as to that, gentlemen?
21681Are you there?
21681Because I-- I--"In God''s name, what do you mean?
21681But if I disobey? 21681 But where can I go, sir?"
21681But why prolong this interview longer, Miss Glen? 21681 Change my name?"
21681Detained? 21681 Did he tell you?"
21681Did the cotton ships get out?
21681Did the general order you to do this?
21681Did they succeed, sir?
21681Did you open it?
21681Did you think to be of service to me?
21681Do you know that you will dishonor me? 21681 Do you love Lacy?"
21681Do you really love him, or are you making a fool of him as you did of me?
21681Even to loss of life?
21681Exposed me to this young lady?
21681For God''s sake, sir, am I in time? 21681 For me?"
21681Forgive you? 21681 Gone?
21681Have you any preparations to make, Sempland?
21681He knew then?
21681How can you love both of us?
21681How dare you comment upon me?
21681How dare you say so?
21681How did he get away? 21681 How is that?"
21681How is that?
21681How long? 21681 How many, all told, has she carried to death?"
21681How, sir?
21681I had Mr. Sempland ushered into the strong room of the house-- the old Rennie house, you know, sir?
21681I know you do n''t, but wo n''t you?
21681Is he--?
21681Is it about the subject that we-- I-- talked about this afternoon? 21681 Is life worth so little to you that you are willing to sacrifice it?"
21681Is n''t there some way out of it?
21681Is not that a solution, gentlemen?
21681Lady? 21681 My God, will you cease this cruelty?
21681No? 21681 Of his?"
21681Oh, General Beauregard--"How could you forget your honor, the South? 21681 Oh, you would n''t do that?"
21681Rhett Sempland, are you marrying me,she asked in return,"to save yourself?"
21681She''s been down five times, has n''t she?
21681Thank you,answered the delighted Sempland;"where shall I get a crew?"
21681The South and-- and-- he, mistaken, but still-- ah, where is my duty? 21681 The boat?"
21681Then I am to--?
21681Then did he burst through you and the men?
21681Then my father is safe?
21681Then there is a man? 21681 Then your name is n''t Fanny Glen?"
21681Wat''s de matta, suh?
21681Well, sir, was not that a fine reply?
21681Well, then, why do n''t you open this door? 21681 Well, then--""And if I will not?"
21681Were you there all the time?
21681What did he say?
21681What did you tell him?
21681What do you mean?
21681What happened then?
21681What is he going to do?
21681What is it to you? 21681 What is it, Major Lacy?"
21681What is it?
21681What is it?
21681What is the Yankee admiral to you, to any of us?
21681What is the meaning of this action, this outrage, Miss Glen?
21681What it means, General?
21681What''s the rest of it?
21681What''s the use? 21681 What?"
21681Where did you go after the letter was written?
21681Where did you go after you left me?
21681Where is Mr. Sempland, sir?
21681Who else then?
21681Who is he?
21681Who is this man?
21681Who took her out?
21681Who, or what, detained you? 21681 Why did n''t you order me out of your room, then?"
21681Why did you do it?
21681Why did you do it?
21681Why do n''t you answer? 21681 Why do you tell me of all this?"
21681Why not? 21681 Why not?"
21681Why not?
21681Why not?
21681Why will you be so foolish?
21681Will you explain to Sempland how it came about? 21681 Will you not come in and speak to me for a moment?"
21681Will you tell her so?
21681Wo n''t you try?
21681Would I not? 21681 Would they shoot me?"
21681Yes, sir, and I''d rather be there myself,returned the young man,"but I-- I beg your pardon, General, were they successful?"
21681Yes?
21681You do not dislike me?
21681You hear, dearest? 21681 You mean--?"
21681You realize what is before you, sir?
21681You tell me that--"You do not believe me?
21681You will not let me save you, then?
21681You will, of course, release Mr. Sempland from arrest, and see that his reputation takes no hurt?
21681You wish to avoid the danger?
21681You wo n''t send me to the Union fleet? 21681 Your father?
21681*****"Fanny Glen,"said Sempland, when they were alone once more,"are you marrying me to save yourself?"
21681A fellow that''s got it in him to do what you have done for the South-- why ca n''t you control yourself?
21681A play?
21681All ready with the torpedo, Captain?"
21681And I--""Yes?
21681And most damnably crushing thought of all, why had she not had the common decency after all to come and see him this morning?
21681And pray, why not?"
21681And she--""Where were you, sir?"
21681And there is no other man?"
21681But I could not let him be blown up unsuspecting, could I?
21681But how, how to prevent it?
21681By whom?"
21681Can you explain it?"
21681Could that be the solution of the mystery?
21681Did her kisses betray him?
21681Did she think to prevent the loss of the flagship of the Federal fleet by detaining him?
21681Did you release him?"
21681Do you love him?"
21681Do you love this man?"
21681Do you realize your position?
21681Fanny Glen a traitor to the South?
21681For the last time, will you tell me why you failed to be on hand?"
21681For what reason?"
21681For what, sir?"
21681Had he wished to resume the command he had so reluctantly surrendered?
21681Had she been a party to any plan whereby the matter might be brought about?
21681Had she strength enough to carry it through?
21681Had the flagship been blown up?
21681Have you nothing to say for yourself?"
21681He is not your-- you are not really married to him, are you?"
21681He took a gloomy view of life and of love and of women-- do they not always go together in the heart of youth?
21681His desire to see her grew with every passing moment, he was consumed by it; yet, he thought bitterly, to what purpose, after all?
21681How could she have done it?
21681How dare you interfere?
21681How did he find out?"
21681I had only two thoughts-- that it meant certain death to my father and possibly Mr. Sempland-- the man-- I-- What was I to do?
21681I never promised to obey you, did I?--that is, not yet?"
21681I--""Is that your only excuse, sir?"
21681If I can only delay him until to- morrow, I can tell the general everything, and-- is there a way, is there a way, O God?"
21681If that were the case, why had she not striven to restrain Lacy and allowed him to go in his place?
21681Is Admiral Vernon your father?"
21681It must have been some man-- or was it a woman?
21681Meanwhile before you depreciate a brother soldier, why do n''t you do something yourself?
21681My God, was ever a man in such a situation?"
21681Now, will you release me?"
21681Oh, had she?
21681Sempland--?"
21681Sempland?"
21681Sempland?"
21681Sempland?"
21681Shall you see Miss Glen before you go?"
21681Suppose-- ah, suppose, Miss Fanny Glen were to disappear?"
21681The boat?"
21681There is a-- a--""Another man?"
21681There was Lacy-- oh, had he repented after all?
21681This was the meaning of the general''s little play, then?
21681To deceive him?
21681Was he to be shamed and sacrificed for Lacy''s glory and honor by this woman?
21681Was it a dream?
21681Was it all acting then?
21681Was it at the mention of Lacy''s name?
21681Was she a traitor to the South?
21681Was she alarmed for his safety?
21681Was she faithful to the South, yet had she a-- a-- lover in the Union fleet?
21681Was she indeed a traitor-- and to him?
21681Was she indeed what he called her, a heartless coquette?
21681Well, what mattered it?
21681What could it be?
21681What could it mean?
21681What did you say, Miss Glen?"
21681What difference does it make to her, anyway?
21681What do you mean?"
21681What else is it?"
21681What excuse have you to offer?"
21681What for?"
21681What had he to live for anyway, if she were taken from him?
21681What is it?"
21681What is the punishment for such actions in the face of the enemy?"
21681What lady?"
21681What mad scheme had she entered upon?
21681What shall we do now?"
21681What was that word she had caught as she ran toward them?
21681What was the use?
21681What were they about to do to her?
21681Where had he gone?
21681Where is Miss Glen?"
21681Where were you detained?
21681Where were you, I say?
21681Where were you, sir?"
21681Who is it?"
21681Why am I locked in here?
21681Why ca n''t you be different?
21681Why could she not come herself?
21681Why did n''t you tell me the truth?
21681Why did she give no sign of it?
21681Why did she not send some one to inquire as to his whereabouts?
21681Why had she not thought of that possibility?
21681Why were n''t you honest about it?
21681Why were you not here?"
21681Why, did it not take courage to defy me, to tell me to my face that I was a scoundrel, a blackguard?
21681Will nothing move you?"
21681Will you go, or shall I give up the expedition?"
21681Will you take me for your lover, and in good time your husband, under such circumstances?
21681Wo n''t you please leave me to myself?
21681Wo n''t you see him before he goes?"
21681Would you not?"
21681Yet he remembered the scene in the strong room-- had she indeed returned his kiss?
21681Yet why had she fainted on the wharf?
21681Yet-- for whom?
21681You agree with me, I am sure, gentlemen?"
21681You are agreed with me, gentlemen?"
21681You can steer the boat?"
21681You hear?
21681You know the consequences?"
21681You understand?"
21681You what?"
21681You wo n''t tell him?"
21681[ Illustration:"''Ah, Sempland, have you told your little tale?''"]
21681[ Illustration:"''Would they shoot me?''
21681cried the girl,"where is he?"
21681laughed Lacy,"you have tried then and lost?
21681said General Beauregard, coldly"191"''Would they shoot me?''
21681was he going mad?
10637***** Between the meetings of Liverpool and the ovations of New York, is there not room for a word of peace?
10637And from a grievance to war, from war to negro insurrections, what will be the distance, I ask?
10637And how could it be otherwise?
10637And shall we remain mute?
10637And slavery itself, who imagines, then, that it can be immortal?
10637And under what pretexts do we chaffer with the government of Mr. Lincoln for those energetic, persevering sympathies on which it has a right to count?
10637And what will God think of it?
10637Are characters formed?
10637Are lawyers or judges ever asked whether the country is insulted or attacked when it really is so?
10637Are men there?
10637Are not these palpable proofs of the too little known truth that the great moral force which is struggling with American slavery is the Gospel?
10637Are the Antilles and the regions of the Gulf of Mexico destined to become the refuge and almost the empire of Africans torn from their own continent?
10637Are there no governments in Europe that can interpose, and recommend the maintenance of peace?
10637Are there no honest men to be found in the North, to restrain Mr. Lincoln, and to prevent him from oppressing them?
10637Are we destined some day to pass into its hands?
10637But what compromise could compensate for a fact so important as the election of Mr. Lincoln?
10637But what is there behind these phrases?
10637Can it be that mail packets have the singular privilege of facilitating such operations without failing in the duties of neutrality?
10637Can it be true that Christians have deserted the cause of justice?
10637Can you fancy New York renouncing half her commerce, ceasing to be the broker of cotton, the necessary medium between the South and Europe?
10637Can you fancy the South deprived of the intervention and credit which New York assures her?
10637Could not the whites of Kentucky and Virginia labor as well as those of Ohio?
10637Did not the Senate, last year, adopt the proposition of Mr. Jefferson Davis in opposition to the liberty of the Territories?
10637Did they fancy then that a formidable question could be resolved without risking the repression of the assaults of force by force?
10637Did you ever ask yourself how much would be missing here on earth if such a people should disappear?
10637Do disputes in which the national honor is involved admit of consultations of this sort?
10637Do you know what has since happened?
10637Does any one imagine by chance that the latter will forever relinquish New Orleans and the Gulf of Mexico?
10637Does this mean that the situation was not grave when it did not appear so?
10637Does this mean that we are to set ourselves up as judges, and brand as wretches all those who thus mistake the laws of charity and justice?
10637Does this mean that we must deplore a violent crisis which alone can bring the cure?
10637Doubtless, there are hours of vertigo from which we may look for every thing, even the impossible; and, who knows?
10637For this question another may be substituted: what is a Confederation?
10637Has he revealed other institutions, this time definitive?
10637Has it not already announced in its journals that, on the first encouragement given to its fugitive slaves, it will draw the sword?
10637Has the Gospel had the place which belongs to it, in the great struggle that is going on between the North and the South?
10637Has the force of resistance appeared?
10637Have souls become masters of themselves?
10637Have there been many inaugurations here below of such thrilling solemnity?
10637Have they been able to avoid transforming it either into tyranny or socialism?
10637Have we already begun to glide down the descent that leads to it?
10637Have we not heard celebrated the delightful mildness of Spanish slavery in Cuba?
10637Have we not just seen a Republican committee acting at Baltimore, in the midst of Maryland?
10637How could slavery have been defended if not by exaggerating democracy?
10637How did they set to work to preach this?
10637How retain that slavery that will escape simultaneously on the North, and the South?
10637I have named secession: what are we to think of the principle on which it rests?
10637If they had not triumphed, do you know who would have gained the victory?
10637If to- morrow he should yield entirely, if he should recognize the Southern Confederacy, would it be great cause for astonishment?
10637In such a case, how avert the chances of a direful conflict?
10637In writing these pages, have I described American democracy?
10637Is it not probable that North Carolina, Virginia, and Maryland will allow themselves to be crossed without saying a word?
10637Is it not the principal and almost the only producer of a raw material, without which the manufactures of the whole world would stand still?
10637Is it not true, that at the first news we all seemed to breathe a whiff of pure and free air from the other side of the ocean?
10637Is it nothing to suppress inheritance in religious matters, and to force each soul to question itself as to what it believes?
10637Is it probable indeed that this confederation contrary to nature, in which each white will be charged with guarding a black, can afford a long career?
10637Is it strange that he should have yielded in some degree to the entreaties of so many able men, all urging in the same direction?
10637Is it to do to others as we would that they should do to us, to sell a family at retail?
10637Is it true that emancipation would be the signal of a struggle for extermination?
10637Is it true, as has been maintained, that the fault was divided, the message having been carried by one packet and the messengers by another?
10637Is not the sovereignty of the States respected?
10637Is not the wealth of Great Britain founded on cotton, which alone furnishes four- fifths of its exported manufactures?
10637Is not this peace, which prevents the insurrections of negroes, and the destruction of cotton, for the interest of all?
10637Is that to say that this inconvenience( if it be one) is not largely compensated for by its advantages?
10637Is there not room upon American soil for free blacks by the side of free whites?
10637Is there then neither the true, nor the false, nor justice, nor injustice?
10637Is this religious sentiment, assailed by the slaveholders, that of free thinkers, or of Christians?
10637It is asked whether other packets, which have carried ministers sent by the United States to Europe, have not also infringed the rules of neutrality?
10637Let us ask in what consists this pretended amelioration?
10637Make conquests?
10637Must not the South live, and how dares any one travesty a fact so simple?
10637Must we conclude from this that the coexistence of races, possible elsewhere, is impossible in the United States?
10637Must we despair then of the progress of the spirit of peace?
10637Must we look with our own eyes upon English vessels employed in ensuring the success of the champions of slavery?
10637Must we veil our head with our mantle?
10637Nevertheless, shall we not take into account the exceptional difficulties with which Mr. Lincoln is surrounded?
10637Notwithstanding, what happened there the other day?
10637Notwithstanding, what has happened in the Antilles?
10637Of so much true liberty, of so much progress, of so many noble examples, what would have been left standing?
10637Of what elements is the population of the South composed?
10637Open the slave trade?
10637Or until the American question has shaped itself, and we are able to know clearly what interests it will serve, in what consequences it will end?
10637Shall I say all that I think?
10637Shall there be things among us( the most important of all) which shall not be put to the vote?
10637Shall we give our readers an idea of this crescendo of pretensions?
10637Shall we listen to the counsels of that false wisdom that always comes too late, so much does it fear to declare itself too early?
10637Shall we not feel impelled to show in all its true light the sacred cause of liberty?
10637The emancipated negroes make large quantities of sugar in the Antilles; why should they not make cotton on firm ground?
10637The majority stifled the debate; will it be able to do this always?
10637The policy of the founders of the Confederation has become that of their successors in turn; and to this policy, what can be objected?
10637Then look more closely at the Republican party, do you not find in it again the visible traces of Puritanism?
10637There is finally a last and more simple manner of avoiding an embarrassing examination:"What is the use of examining precedents?"
10637These are the shoals of democracy; have they been shunned by the United States?
10637This being so, what ought the commander of the packet_ Trent_ to have done?
10637To have waited for what?
10637To what do we not become habituated?
10637Until there shall be no more great questions in Europe to dispute our attention with the American question?
10637Was I not right in saying that this is a great people?
10637What are they?
10637What are, in fact, the great bonds on earth, if not duty and affection?
10637What does plain good sense tell us, in fact?
10637What does this matter?
10637What had Mr. Buchanan done?
10637What happens then?
10637What has happened, on the contrary?
10637What if abolitionism, moreover, be a party?
10637What is the first thing in question?
10637What is to be done when there is only the miserable Confederacy of some thousand whites, the owners and keepers of some hundred thousand blacks?
10637What would the valley of the Mississippi be without New Orleans, and New Orleans, isolated from the vast country of which it is the natural market?
10637Where do we find a more glorious cause than this?
10637Where will the United States be after secession?
10637Who continually recruited bands of adventurers to launch on Cuba or Central America?
10637Who knows again?
10637Who knows whether instantaneous secession would not perform the mission of resolving certain problems otherwise insoluble?
10637Who knows whether slavery must not disappear in this wise in the very effort that it makes to strengthen itself through isolation?
10637Who knows?
10637Who paid Walker?
10637Who speaks of the end of the United States?
10637Who speaks, then, of conquests?
10637Who will go then to expose himself lightly to the fearful chances which the first war with any country, American or European, may bring in its train?
10637Who would wish to re- establish the African slave trade on a large scale?
10637Why does no slaver, American or any other, steer towards Brazil, since Brazil has_ desired_ to put an end to the slave trade?
10637Why dream of blending or of assimilating the two races?
10637Why had these poor pilgrims torn themselves from all the habits of home and country, to seek in the dead of winter an asylum on an unknown soil?
10637Why has the importation of negroes tripled in Cuba?
10637Why is no opposition made to this?
10637Why not attack the Confederation while it had a chief who was determined to make as little defence as possible?
10637Why not?
10637Why pursue as an ideal frequent marriages between them, and the formation of a third race: that of mulattoes?
10637Why shall they be prevented from settling in a Territory with the slaves, their property?
10637Why should not the conflict which occupies our attention, instead of ending in war, result in a useful negotiation?
10637Why should there not be two Confederacies, living side by side, as good friends?
10637Why should there not be, at need, a negro State by the side of an Indian State?
10637Why suffer the establishment of this lying axiom which checks all progress?
10637Why, if the doubt were possible, would not diversity of opinions be also possible among disinterested judges?
10637Why, in fact, is the prejudice of race stronger in the free States than in the slave States?
10637Why?
10637Will a glorious confederation have perished by their retreat?
10637Will the South pause on such a road?
10637Will the official re- opening of the slave trade be some day effected without bringing on a storm which will destroy the new Confederacy?
10637Will there be a country, will there be a heart, forgetful enough of its dignity to tolerate this insolent challenge flung at our best sympathies?
10637Will they at least have the consolation of having killed the United States?
10637Will this flag cover the human merchandise which it is designed to protect against the interference of cruisers?
10637Would you know what will take place in political societies?
10637by what right was penned that eloquent calumny called"Uncle Tom''s Cabin"?
10637could not this solution be thought over and prepared by those who best know its elements?
10637despite the impure alloy which is mingled with it, of course, as with all glorious causes, is it not fitted to stir up generous hearts?
10637do they not preserve the right of postponing, so long as they deem proper, the solution of a dreaded problem?
10637do they not remain free to regulate what concerns them?
10637does it contain no guarantees for the future?
10637how is it that such iniquities have subsisted under the influence of so powerful a Christian sentiment?
10637what if it appeal to the passions of the North, as the slavery party appeals to those of the South?
10637what if it be based on interests which may be given it by the majority?
10637what if it have its journals, its publicists, its orators?
10637what if it make use of the means employed by parties?
10637what if it seek allies?
10637who live by the manufacture of cotton?

40973This inquiry, while not invested with the same degree of mystery, nor enjoying as large a measure of notoriety as"Who struck Billy Patterson?"
40973To the question,"Is Lincoln dead?"
40973WHERE IS THE OVEN?
40973Was it mutton or was it dog?
40973Was the war on the part of the South only a wicked rebellion, as our Northern friends have been pleased to term it?
40973Were these four wasted years?

2658And if any, what?
2658And if so what is it?
2658And if so what was his offense, and when is he to be executed?
2658And in any event, can not the North decide for itself whether to receive them?
2658And is it not needed whenever it helps us and hurts the enemy?
2658And suppose they could be induced by a proclamation of freedom from me to throw themselves upon us, what should we do with them?
2658And why may we not continue that ratio far beyond that period?
2658And why, he asked, should the people of your race be colonized, and where?
2658And yet have not more been furnished you since then than your entire present stock?
2658Are the forces still moving north through the gap at Front Royal and between you and there?
2658Are they not already in the land?
2658Are you anxious about any part except the city and vicinity?
2658Are you for it?
2658Are you for it?
2658Are you not over- cautious when you assume that you can not do what the enemy is constantly doing?
2658As commander of this department, should you not be here?
2658As you have but 2500 men at Harper''s Ferry, where are the rest which were in that vicinity and which we have sent forward?
2658August 27, 1862 4.30 p.m. MAJOR- GENERAL BURNSIDE, Falmouth, Virginia: Do you hear anything from Pope?
2658Brown, convicted of mutinous conduct and sentenced to death?
2658But how can we obtain it?
2658But what comparison, in numbers have such bands ever borne to the insurgent sympathizers even in many of the loyal States?
2658But who is to be the judge of hearts, or of"heart in it"?
2658But why should emancipation South send the free people North?
2658By arithmetic, how many days will it take him to do it?
2658COLONEL HAUPT Alexandria, Virginia: What news?
2658Can I have fifty?
2658Can aliens make treaties easier than friends can make laws?
2658Can he do it?
2658Can not the enemy ford the river?
2658Can treaties be more faithfully enforced between aliens than laws can among friends?
2658Can we, can they, by any other means so certainly or so speedily assure these vital objects?
2658Can you get near enough to throw shells into the city?
2658Can you not do this almost as well as not while you are building the Chickahominy bridges?
2658Can you not pursue the retreating enemy, and relieve Cumberland Gap?
2658Can you not, and will you not, have a full conference with General Halleck?
2658Can you not?
2658Change positions with the enemy, and think you not he would break your communication with Richmond within the next twenty- four hours?
2658Could I get a hundred tolerably intelligent men, with their wives and children, and able to"cut their own fodder,"so to speak?
2658Could he be of service to you or to Tennessee in any capacity in which I could send him?
2658Could the one in any way greatly disturb the seven?
2658Could you give me the facts which prompted you to telegraph?
2658Did he know what he said, or did he say it without knowing it?
2658Did you receive a short letter from me dated the 13th of July?
2658Did you receive my despatch of 12th pardoning John Murphy?

2658Do you know him?
2658Do you know where Longstreet is?
2658Do you not consume supplies as fast as you get them forward?

2658Do you?
2658Does Colonel Devon mean that sound of firing was heard in direction of Warrenton, as stated, or in direction of Warrenton Junction?

2658How certain is your information about Bragg being in the valley of the Shenandoah?
2658How did this happen?

2658How does it all sum up?
2658How many arms have you there ready for distribution?
2658How near to you?
2658I wish to see you at once will you come?
2658If not recruited and rested then, when could they ever be?
2658If preorganization was against them then, why not do this now that the United States army is present to protect them?
2658If so, what news?
2658If the Governor of New Jersey shall furnish any new regiments, might not they be put into such an expedition?
2658If they could hold out a few days, could you help them?
2658If this be true would you like to have the shells sent to you?
2658If this is so, how happened it that Fremont fairly fought and routed him on the 8th?
2658If, then, for a common object this property is to be sacrificed, is it not just that it be done at a common charge?
2658If, then, we are at some time to be as populous as Europe, how soon?
2658In the name of all that is reasonable, how long does it take to pay a couple of regiments?
2658In what way can that compromise be used to keep Lee''s army out of Pennsylvania?
2658Is he coming toward you or going farther off?
2658Is it doubted that it would restore the national authority and national prosperity and perpetuate both indefinitely?
2658Is it doubted that we here-- Congress and executive-- can secure its adoption?
2658Is it doubted, then, that the plan I propose, if adopted, would shorten the war, and thus lessen its expenditure of money and of blood?
2658Is it inferior to Europe in any natural advantage?
2658Is it less fertile?
2658Is it possible, then, to make that intercourse more advantageous or more satisfactory after separation than before?
2658Is it true, then, that colored people can displace any more white labor by being free than by remaining slaves?
2658Is not this so?
2658Is that so?
2658Is there a single court, or magistrate or individual that would be influenced by it there?
2658Is there or has there been anything to hinder his coming directly to you by water from Alexandria?
2658Is there, has there ever been, any question that by the law of war, property, both of enemies and friends, may be taken when needed?
2658It is not"Can any of us imagine better?"

2658MRS. A. LINCOLN, Fifth Avenue House, New York:--Did you receive my despatch of yesterday?
2658MY DEAR SIR:--What think you of forming a reserve cavalry corps of, say, 6000 for the Army of the Potomac?
2658Major Turner says:"As I remember it, the conversation was:''Why did we not bag them after the battle of Sharpsburg?''
2658May I not hope that you and he will attempt this?
2658May he not be in Virginia?
2658Might not such a corps be constituted from the cavalry of Sigel''s and Slocum''s corps, with scraps we could pick up here and there?
2658Mrs. ELIZABETH J. GRIMSLEY, Springfield, Ill.: Is your John ready to enter the naval school?
2658Now, then, tell me, if you please, what possible result of good would follow the issuing of such a proclamation as you desire?
2658Object whatsoever is possible, still the question recurs,"Can we do better?"
2658Or is the account that he did fight and rout him false and fabricated?
2658Or would you prosecute it in future with elder- stalk squirts charged with rose water?
2658PRESIDENT LINCOLN:[to the corps commanders] In your present encampment what is the present and prospective condition as to health?
2658PRESIDENT''S ROOM, WHITE HOUSE, WASHINGTON, July[ 15?]

2658SMITH, Esq., Springfield, Ill.: Why not name him for the general you fancy most?
2658SPEECH TO THE 12TH INDIANA REGIMENT, MAY[ 15?]
2658Secondly, will not a movement of our army be a relief to the cavalry, compelling the enemy to concentrate instead of foraging in squads everywhere?
2658Shall they be withdrawn from Banks, or Grant, or Steele, or Rosecrans?
2658Should not the remainder of your forces, except sufficient to hold the point at Fredericksburg, move this way-- to Manassas Junction or Alexandria?
2658Should the enrolled militia then have been broken up and General Herron kept from Grant to police Missouri?
2658Should you not claim to be at least his equal in prowess, and act upon the claim?
2658Some of you profess to think its retraction would operate favorably for the Union, why better after the retraction than before the issue?
2658Supposing he is loyal, can any of his requests be granted, and if any, which of them?
2658THE PRESIDENT: If you desired could you remove the army safely?

2658THE PRESIDENT:[ to the corps commanders] Where and in what condition do you believe the enemy to be now?
2658TO GENERAL BURNSIDE OR GENERAL PARKE: What news about arrival of troops?
2658The question is, if the colored people are persuaded to go anywhere, why not there?
2658The question now practically in dispute is: Can Governor Gamble make a vacancy by removing an officer or accepting a resignation?
2658The question occurs, Can the thing be done at all?
2658Upon this probability what is to be done?
2658WAR DEPARTMENT, WASHINGTON CITY, October 24[ 25?

2658What think you of it?
2658What would you do in my position?
2658When can you reach here?
2658Whence shall they come?
2658Where do you understand Buell to be, and what is he doing?
2658Where is Forrest''s headquarters?
2658Where is Sedgwick Where is Stoneman?
2658Where is the enemy which you dread in Louisville?
2658Why can you not reach there before him, unless you admit that he is more than your equal on a march?
2658Why did they allow the ordinance to go into effect?
2658Why did they not assert themselves?
2658Why did they not hold popular meetings and have a convention of their own to express and enforce the true sentiment of the State?
2658Why did you not leave before being besieged?
2658Why may not our country at some time average as many?
2658Why should they do anything for us if we will do nothing for them?
2658Why should they leave this country?
2658Why stand passive and allow themselves to be trodden down by minority?
2658Will liberation make them any more numerous?
2658Will not the enemy cut him from thence to Harper''s Ferry?
2658Will not the good people respond to a united and earnest appeal from us?
2658Will you not embrace it?
2658Will you not soon visit Washington again?
2658Will you pardon me for asking what the horses of your army have done since the battle of Antietam that fatigues anything?
2658Will you please get in communication with him, and have a full conference with him before you leave for here?
2658Will you please look into the case and restore the old man to his home if the public interest will admit?
2658Would my word free the slaves, when I can not even enforce the Constitution in the rebel States?
2658Would not Stoneman better move up and see about it?
2658Would not the doing of this be your best mode of counteracting his raid on your communications?
2658Would you advise that the authority be given him?
2658Would you deal lighter blows rather than heavier ones?
2658Would you drop the war where it is?
2658Would you give up the contest, leaving any available means unapplied?
2658You ask,"Why is it that the North with her great armies so often is found with inferiority of numbers face to face with the armies of the South?"
2658but"Can we all do better?"
34344Ai n''t you Mr. O. K., that was out in Texas with Major J----?
34344Are you both Yankee soldiers?
34344Are you sure that your friends over there have not heard of your being in the army?
34344Aunty,seeing that I was awake, came closer to my bed, and, in a kindly way, asked:"How is you dis mornin''?"
34344But do n''t I have to pay something for the delivery?
34344But, my dear boy, why did you refuse to take the oath of allegiance? 34344 But,"said the old scoundrel,"why did n''t you stay here last night?"
34344Do you know Colonel Blank, of Baltimore?
34344Does the Secretary want to procure any information as to General Patterson''s movements?
34344How does a man feel in battle?
34344How is it that your companion in the uniform ran away on the approach of our troops?
34344How long have they been here?
34344Is that so? 34344 It looks as if something was up, do n''t it?"
34344Oh, you have passes, have you? 34344 Rd"did not seem to comprehend, and made the telegraphic signal for interrogation(?)
34344Right away; do you hyar?
34344Say, Baker, ai n''t you just playing off as a Dutchman? 34344 That''s enough, ai n''t it?
34344What are they doing up there?
34344What are they talking about so much; why do n''t they come on?
34344What are you doing there?
34344What did he say?
34344What do they do with them?
34344What regiment was your friend in?
34344What shall I tell him?
34344When did you see him?
34344Where in---- are you going?
34344Why,I said,"are we near the navy yard?"
34344Yes, I know; but what soldiers?

3434466 An Interview with Parson Brownlow 304"Are You Union, or Confederate?"
34344Addressing me courteously, he said:"What in the name of all that''s good brings you out on this road on such a dark night, disturbing our sleep?"
34344Broome?"
34344Ca n''t you go up there and see them for me?"
34344Could I forget that banquet?
34344Could it be possible that we were to be baffled at last?
34344Dear me, what bass drums there were in General Patterson''s army; was n''t there one to each company?
34344Did we catch any fish?
34344Did you ever try to get into a hammock?
34344Do n''t you see the''old man''is full?"
34344Every person I have talked with for five minutes about Gettysburg, asks the question:"Were you there when Pickett charged?"
34344He drew his chair right up in front of mine, looking me straight in the eye, as he said:"Now, my young friend, what is it that you propose?"
34344He replied to my observation:"Yes; where did you come from?"
34344Here are some Maryland secessionists being sent away down here to Tennessee to punish and coerce Unionists?"
34344His reply to this put me off my pins entirely:"Well, why do n''t you all go to your own home in your own country?"
34344How, then, could I explain this arrest to them?
34344I asked only the one question--"Where do we go?"
34344I made the signal for interrogation, or question, which all operators understand to mean,"I did not hear you,"or"What did you say?"
34344I met at the hotel office my companion, the Colonel, who, upon seeing me, rushed over the office floor to say:"Why, where the devil have you been?
34344I said more deliberately:"That message about Banks-- is there anything important?"
34344I spoke first, with the desperation of an outlaw challenging a helpless traveler:"Are you Union or Confederate?"
34344In a voice trembling with suppressed rage, he said, looking savagely at me:"Did n''t you see me at the theater the other night?"
34344Instead of that, however, in a quiet, slow- speaking voice, I suggested involuntarily:"How about the Monitor and Merrimac?"
34344Is n''t he just too nice?"
34344It may also be asked why I bring this subject up at this late date, and after Hancock''s death?
34344It must have been a violent shock to father, but why should I so write and rouse within all of you the bitter renewal of your grief?
34344Making an appearance at the head of the stairway, she asked, pleasantly:"What in the world is the matter with you?"
34344Never turning my head, I was walking on hurriedly when the blamed fool sang out after me so everybody could hear:"What?"
34344Of course, I must have imagined the worst; who would not have done so under the same conditions?
34344SKETCHING, ARE YOU?"]
34344Sketching, Are You?"
34344Superintendent here?"
34344The Colonel said:"You have a letter to send home I am told?"
34344The Colonel, who was the jolly fellow of this trio, said, laughingly:"Hello, boy, what have you been up to?"
34344The General, without halting his slow movement, gruffly said:"Where is Slocum?"
34344The first words the brass tongue of the instrument sounded to his startled ears were:"I am O. K."--this was my telegraphic signal--"Who are you?"
34344The hint was sufficient, and to my hurried inquiry:"Are there any cavalrymen at the house?"
34344The man on duty at the door looked at me with disgust as he said:"That''s no damned doctor, man; do n''t you know General Meade?"
34344The officer now began to get mad and, in a commanding tone, inquired:"What is your business, sir, with the General?"
34344The only consolation I got from the officer was,"Can your horse stand it?
34344Then Lanyard with a contemptuous look, turned to Baker and said:"Say, Dutchy, you blasted rascal, you played me for a marine, did n''t you?"
34344Then she added, laughing heartily as she spoke:"Did n''t you hear him slam the door?"
34344Then taking my arm, familiarly, said:"Come along, the boys will all be glad to see you?"
34344Then the old lady chipped in with:"Shall I send Mammy to help you bathe it with warm water, before you go to bed?"
34344Then, in an undertone,"Are you all alone?"
34344To gratify the General, and get around the question, I asked:"Is it''Rd?''"
34344To his sleepy growl of"Who''s there?"
34344Under the circumstances, what could I do?
34344Under the circumstances, what else could I do but take this advantage of the good people?
34344Was n''t there a Rebel camp near Leesburg, or was that the name of the town near that mountain?
34344We passed the two men-- one of whom was in uniform-- and as we did so, I heard one of them, say:"That''s him, ai n''t it?"
34344Were they going back to their Rebel camps?
34344What are you doing?
34344What can I do for you?
34344What could I do?
34344What could have been better for my purpose?
34344What did I do?
34344What did I do?
34344What would have been the result,_ if_ Meade had been supported by Franklin, when he broke Stonewall Jackson''s line at Fredericksburg?
34344What would you have done?
34344When Covode crawled into the carriage, Mr. Moorehead said,"Well, what''s the programme?"
34344When handing the paper back to the clerk, he remarked jocularly:"They have made you sign a mighty tight paper, have n''t they?"
34344When he stopped his conversation long enough to hear me, he simply said, in his polite, kindly way:"Well, you come in and see me again, wo n''t you?"
34344Where is Slocum now?
34344Where is he?"
34344Where shall your answer be delivered?"
34344Who are you?"
34344Who in---- are you, anyhow?"
34344Who is it?"
34344Why did n''t I get ahead of them?
34344Why did n''t you say something to me before?
34344Will you please give me your name?"
34344With my own hand trembling on the telegraph key I sent my own message, as follows:"To father: I am here safe; are all well at home?"
34344You do n''t know what that is?
34344[ Illustration: TAPPING THE TELEGRAPH WIRE.--"ARE THE YANKS IN FREDERICKSBURG?"]
34344[ Illustration: TO FATHER:"I AM SAFE; ARE ALL WELL AT HOME?"]
34344[ Illustration:"ARE YOU UNION OR CONFEDERATE?"]
34344[ Illustration:"BILL, AIN''T HE THE FELLOW?"]
34344did n''t you tell me to keep close to you?"
34344is a question often asked, or"Were you frightened the first time?"
34344is that you, Yank?"
34344now?"
4259Do you believe in presentiments and superstitions?
4259Now, do you like mashed potatos with beef? 4259 The Doctor said,''Certainly; what is it?''
4259Well,( with our confidence in exchange somewhat dashed,)"they intend to exchange us here, do n''t they?"
4259Well,( with something of a quaver in the questioner''s voice,)"what are they going to do, with us, any way?"
4259You say I ca n''t live but a few hours?'' 4259 Are past services to be ignored? 4259 Frank recognized him instantly and said:You are Lieutenant Davis?"
4259He did so:"You want to know about how we got Atlanta at last, do you?
4259I had not seen him since he came back, and I sung out:"''Hello, Lieutenant, how do you feel?''
4259Is there no hope?
4259Let''s see: where was I?
4259We looked toward each other, almost speechless with glad surprise, and then gasped out:"Did''you hear THAT?"
4259What are you doing there?"
4259Why do n''t you shoot the-------- Yankee son------------?"
4257All right; how much have you got?
4257But,broke in the leader of the bean party,"Uncle, do n''t they also call them beans?"
4257What Yank? 4257 And be sure that the reply would be, after a furtive glance around to see that no officer was watching:Yes; how much do you want for them?"
4257Approaching the Major, he said,"Who is in command this force?"
4257As this was replied to the newt one followed:"Why are you''uns takin''our niggers away from we''uns for?"
4257If the guard was of the long suffering kind he would answer:"Take yo''head back in, up dah; you kno hits agin all odahs to do dat?"
4257Into the open ulcer of my heart he poured the acid of all manner of questions concerning my lost steed''s qualities and capabilities: would he swim?
4257Late on the afternoon of the 25th of February the Seventh Indiana Sergeant approached me with the inquiry:"Do you know where Macon is?"
4257Now, is the man who robs you every day too tender- hearted ever to cuff or kick you?
4257Now, uncle, what do they call that there?"
4257Or would it be monstrous injustice and cruelty?
4257Said I:"Now, is n''t that fine, Berkstresser?"
4257The Rebel would look convinced, and demand:"Why, how many men have you got in de cah?"
4257The dispute invariably began by their asking:"Well, what are you''uns down here a- fightin''we''uns for?"
4257The question that demanded immediate solution then was:"Who is the traitor who has informed the Rebels?"
4257Then came:"What do you''uns put our niggers to fightin''we''uns for?"
4257What the are you shooting at, any how?"
4257Where''s any Yank?"
4257Would it be kindness?
4257Would that be justice?
4257Would the villains, scoundrels, hell- hounds, sons of vipers never go?
4257how did he stand fire?
4257how was he in fording?
4257talk of a man treating you well while robbing you of all you get, and as fast as you get it?
23565''And what will become of us women?'' 23565 ''But with Simon''s?''
23565''By whose orders?'' 23565 ''Ca n''t, can I, Ann?''
23565''Captain, where was that picket- firing?'' 23565 ''Did you ever reflect, Tom, upon the source of political power?''
23565''Do you call that brother Jim''s clothes?'' 23565 ''Hab you made your peace wid God, and are you ready for eberlasting rest?''
23565''Have you had any lately?'' 23565 ''How dare you insult a Regular officer?''
23565''How many rooms?'' 23565 ''Reckon you hab a moder and sisters?''
23565''There, sir,''said the General, pointing, with rather a pleased countenance;''do you see that barrel, sir?'' 23565 ''Tut, tut, Tom, did n''t I stand shoulder to shoulder with your father in the old Clay Legion?
23565''Well, I swow, old woman, is this what you call a private fixin''?'' 23565 ''What are you doing there, sir?''
23565''What''s the matter? 23565 ''Who the d----l are you?''
23565''Who the h-- l are you, sir?'' 23565 ''Why, gentlemen officers?''
23565''Wo n''t you get off your critters?'' 23565 ''Your name and Regiment, sir?''
23565And are they Rebel cannon?
23565And could n''t you let that go? 23565 And is he going to practise upon us?"
23565And what is a Tippo, Typo, or Toppographical Engineer, Sergeant?
23565And whin? 23565 And who is Abraham''s Daughter?"
23565At this I straightened up, drew up my shirt collar, pulled down my vest, and said with a sort of hopeful inquiry,''Why should there?'' 23565 But how did you get the sword?"
23565But how did you hear all this? 23565 But, Captain,"said his First Lieutenant,"would you fight alongside of a darkie?"
23565But, Lieutenant, if that''s so,alluding to the purpose of their march,"why are we halting here?"
23565Can I see a Chaplain?
23565Captain, where did you make the raise?
23565Charlie, what''s the state of the larder?
23565Corporal,said he, addressing the little Irish Corporal,"do you know how near we are to Martinsburg?"
23565Did he drink and swear?
23565Did they intimate any opinion as to what we ought to do?
23565Do n''t the river surround them, and can they cross at more than one place, and that a bad one, as an ould woman whose pig I saved to- day tould me?
23565Do n''t you think I had oughter Be a going down to Washington To fight for Abraham''s Daughter?
23565Do you really think so?
23565Do you recollect, General,I remarked,"whether you had forty rounds of ball cartridge in your box then?"
23565For revenge?
23565From my Head- Quarters, sir? 23565 General,"suggested the Colonel,"would not that have been improper?
23565Get it? 23565 Goin''to stay yer-- right in this meadow?"
23565Has he ordinary honesty? 23565 Has he the foresight common among business men?
23565Has the Sergeant told''the whole truth,''and nothing but the truth?
23565His canteen?
23565How can I do it?
23565How did he make it?
23565How long can I live?
23565How so, Terence?
23565How so?
23565I did n''t intend it as a sermon; what application would you make?
23565In regard to what point, General?
23565In regard to what point? 23565 In what way?"
23565Is n''t it something like a land surveyor; and be Jabers, was n''t the great Washington himself a land surveyor? 23565 Is the movement general?"
23565Oh, it''s the ould First ye are spaking about, is it? 23565 Point out the Devil!--will you point to something that is strictly in accordance with the regulations?
23565Pretty well played,said one of the crowd;"but what has that to do with a whisky barrel?"
23565Prove my loyalty?
23565So bad as that? 23565 The General was about leaving the Sibley, when he turned suddenly;"''Do you drink, sir?''
23565Then you want to make us pay nearly what the whole farm cost you for using the meadow a single night?
23565Thin why the Divil do n''t we charge?
23565Tom,said a non- commissioned officer, addressing a private whom we have before met in these pages,"where did you get that box?"
23565Was it a Rebel pig?
23565We had n''t time to look around before the old woman screeched out--''You wo n''t disturb my private fixin''s, will you?''
23565We have the Pyrrhic dance as yet; Where is our Pyrrhic phalanx gone? 23565 Well, Captain, what did you see?"
23565Well, what does all this mean?
23565Were there many Rebs about?
23565What authority have you, George?
23565What did you enlist for, anyway, Terence?
23565What does it all mean, Charlie? 23565 What for you shrug your shoulders?''
23565What is up now, Corporal?
23565What luck, Adjutant?
23565What right have you to confiscate it?
23565What sort of swearin''have you for that?
23565What''s the matter now?
23565What''s the matter with Old Pigey?
23565What, killed?
23565What, sir?
23565When did you get him, Corporal?
23565When, do you say? 23565 Where are your children?"
23565Where did those dogs come from?
23565Where did you steal your whiskey?
23565Where does the old fellow live, Corporal?
23565Where is the Captain, Lieutenant?
23565Who is Hannah Amanda?
23565Who is quartered here?
23565Who? 23565 Why did n''t they join him?"
23565Why do they not now, come boldly out and acknowledge that slavery is a curse to any nation?
23565Why not, Doctor?
23565Why not, sir? 23565 Why, what could Old John have done with them?"
23565Why, what''s in the wind now?
23565Why, what''s the matter wid ye, boy? 23565 Why, where did you get that?"
23565Why?
23565Why?
23565Why?
23565Will the General please indicate which is correct?
23565Will you please point them out, General?
23565Would you drive a darkie away if he came to assist you in a struggle for life?
23565''Just look at the miners who frequent your hotel, each of them has influence, and do n''t you think that you could control their votes?
23565''That your private mark, eh?''
23565''The d----l it didn''t-- would you have me disbelieve my own ears?
23565''Took it?''
23565''What does this mean?''
23565''Where did that shell explode?''
23565''Where have I seen service?
23565''Where have you ever seen service?''
23565''Why need you concern yourself about it?''
23565*****"What''s the matter, Dinah?"
23565*****"Where is Old Pigey?"
23565*****"Who commands you?"
23565A laugh, with the inquiry"how he knew that?"
23565About daylight the General came out, rubbing his eyes, wanting to know who that early bird was?
23565And have they not equal claims?
23565And how high above him did this red- tapism extend?
23565And why should n''t we use them?
23565Are you the owner?"
23565At last says he:"''Well, how did you leave the horse?''
23565Bray, eh?"
23565But again, if the Rebels were in force, why did they not attack us?
23565But what can be expected from officers who are not in the service from patriotic motives, but rather from prospects of pay and position?
23565But what is to become of the Lieutenant- Colonel?"
23565But when did you hear that?"
23565But who tould you that you wud be kilt, and meself that''s alone and friendless escape?
23565But why individualize?
23565But why multiply?
23565By the way, whose hand- writing is this copy in?"
23565Can you ride him?"
23565Captain?
23565Clerk?
23565Colonel, you are a lawyer, and is it possible that you ca n''t see what that d----d Court has done?"
23565Did you ever hear any of my misfortunes?"
23565Do n''t you see the boys?"
23565Do you know that you have influence-- and political influence at that?''
23565Do you understand, sir?''
23565Eh?
23565Eh?
23565Eh?"
23565Every night we are troubled with the persimmon business,"said the Colonel;"but what does the''also Lying''mean?"
23565George, did you ever hear any patriotism about those Head- quarters?
23565Has it come to this?
23565He rushed to him,''My boy, who fired that shot?''
23565How big is that house?''
23565How can any living man tell that the batteries we saw to- day upon the ridge, are not the batteries we drove before us yesterday?
23565How do you like the smack of that, Tom?"
23565How does that strike you?''
23565How long must these sneaking Catilines in high places abuse our patience?
23565How was that?"
23565How will Gen. Franklin do?''
23565How you like him?
23565Hudson,''said the Prince of politicians,''how can I repay you for your services?''
23565I wonder whether this Grand Army of the Potomac would n''t halt when about going into battle, to see whether the men had their shoe- strings tied?"
23565If their pictures are faithful, where in the world do our swarms of pugs and aquilines come from worn by those claiming Revolutionary descent?
23565In hip?''
23565In what other nation can you combine the elements of the American volunteer?
23565Is he broke?"
23565Is he likely to be imposed upon?"
23565Is it beyond their skill to make a pug or an aquiline an index to nobility of soul or heroic resolve?)
23565Is that the order you mean?
23565Lieutenant?
23565Major, where''s your canteens?''
23565Of two such lessons why forget The nobler and the manlier one?"
23565Rheumatism, eh?
23565The fellow that has been going along nearly double, with both hands over the pit of his stomach, for a week past?"
23565The little Dutchman would yell out whenever he would see him--''What for you come?
23565Their movements indicate that_ they_ realize their position fully; but when will the country realize that''strategy''is played out?"
23565To one fond of mountain scenery, and who is not?
23565To say nothing of their fighting, why do n''t our Generals use them as servants, and why are they not our teamsters and laborers?
23565Was it the force that we had driven before us?
23565What are you anyhow?
23565What did the land cost you?"
23565What does that Record show?"
23565What for you want him?
23565What have we here, any how?"
23565What is it, anyhow?''
23565What is the Constitution worth without a country for it to control?"
23565What need you care about the brains of a soldier?
23565What will General McClellan say with that record before him?
23565What you tink?"
23565When did you scrub last?"
23565When will earnest men cease to be foiled in this war by treacherous commanders?
23565When will our Hawthornes and our Taylors be just to the land of their birth?
23565Where are our old fighting stock of Generals?
23565Where''s your horse?''
23565Who ever heard of a clerk being employed?
23565Who ever saw a dead cavalryman?
23565Who would be the successor?
23565Who''ll go along?"
23565Whose canteen have you been sucking Commissary out of?"
23565Why can not the whole country meet the issue boldly as one man, and atone for past offence by unanimity in the abolition of the evil?"
23565Why do n''t they come down and shoulder muskets themselves?''
23565Why do n''t we advance?
23565Why do n''t we advance?"
23565Why do n''t we attack them?"
23565Would it not have implied an already existing organization of the court?
23565Would the change be radical?
23565Would you have your children, Joe Dixon, insulted, made do the bidding of some long- haired lank mulatto nabob?
23565Yes, I''ll be G-- d d----d,"and his arms came down slapping against his hips,"let him off, with what?
23565You do n''t think that camping upon this meadow will injure it any, do you?"
23565_ Undue and unjust deference._ Does not the history of the Army of the Potomac prove it?
23565did n''t we beat the Rebs yesterday?"
23565did you say, sir?''
23565did you say?''
23565do you know, Lieutenant, that that fight was all a mistake upon our part?
23565do you say, Adjutant?"
23565eh?
23565how far do you suppose that firing is?"
23565on his coat buttons?"
23565or Orderly?
23565or were the Rebels in force upon that ridge, making the Oppequan their line of defence?
23565our Hookers, Heintzelmans, Hancocks, and men of like kidney?
23565such a night as this?"
23565whar did you git the jump- high?''
23565what news from the Sibley?"
23565when will my moder and sisters hear of dis, and what will dey say?''
23565who,"elevating his voice,"would have furnished hot rolls for the officers, and warm bread cakes and pies for the men?
23565why did you go for a Soldier?"
23565why did you go for a Soldier?"
23565why did you go for a soldier?"
23565will you permit a corporal, and an Irishman at that, to spake a word to ye?"
41036Ai n''t you old enough to know better?
41036Are you trying to commit suicide?
41036Ca n''t we win through with this start?
41036Come on, you fellows,he yelled over his shoulder;"do you want me to drive them back twice?"
41036Did you catch that pig yesterday?
41036Do n''t you hear a drum?
41036Do n''t you see the fellow is a Reb? 41036 Do you surrender?"
41036Have you ever hit anything with that old gun of yours?
41036How about dropping some of the fire- bars on the tracks?
41036How about putting this in the middle of the track on the chance that it may entangle the wheels?
41036How long since you''ve been wagon- master?
41036I command here,said the Confederate colonel, rising from the middle pit,"and who are you, sir?"
41036If you''re from the North,said one,"why do n''t you show us a Yankee trick before you go?"
41036John, what in the world are you doing there?
41036Little man, can you really drum?
41036Major Keenan,shouted General Pleasonton,"how many men have you got?"
41036Say, grandpa,called out one,"did you fight in the Revolution?"
41036Well, general,answered Andrews slowly,"do n''t you think it''s worth trying?
41036What are you doing down here?
41036What are you doing, old man, wounded on a battle- field in citizens''clothes?
41036What else?
41036What is the meaning of all this?
41036What the devil are you fellows stopping for?
41036What will you do for me?
41036What''s the matter with you fellows anyway,said Allen, as he reached the safety of the rear rank;"do you think I''m going to do all the fighting?"
41036What''s your business,said one,"and what are you doing in that uniform?"
41036Where are ye gaun, ye mason lads, Wi''a''your ladders lang and hie?
41036Where be ye gaun, ye broken men?
41036Where be ye gaun, ye hunters keen?
41036Where be ye gaun, ye marshal men?
41036Where is the_ Mississippi_? 41036 Whose horse is this?"
41036Why do n''t you get back to the rear where you belong?
41036Why do n''t you play something else?
41036Why trespass ye on the English side? 41036 You do n''t think I am going to die, do you, Bill?"
41036''Well,''I said,''General, I have only got twelve more bullets; ca n''t I shoot those?''
41036And as we cross''d the Bateable Land, When to the English side we held, The first o''men that we met wi'', Whae sould it be but fause Sakelde?
41036And when we cam to the lower prison, Where Willie o''Kinmont he did lie--"O sleep ye, wake ye, Kinmont Willie, Upon the morn that thou''s to die?"
41036But who shall break the guards that wait Before the awful face of Fate?
41036General Grant called General Granger up to him and said angrily:"Did you order those men up, Granger?"
41036How they hae ta''en bauld Kinmont Willie, On Haribee to hang him up?
41036I turns around and right behind me was General George Washington, so I saluted and I says,''What is it, General?''
41036If I get him to you, do you think you can ease his pain?"
41036O have ye na heard o''the keen Lord Scroope?
41036The last verse sang the praise both of the rider and the horse:"What was done?
41036Then loud the warden''s trumpet blew--"O wha dare meddle wi''me?"
41036What can I do for you?"
41036What you hangin''back for?"
41036Where are you going?"
41036Where''ll I go?"
41036what to do?
31772Ah, Colonel, you''ve got back, have you?
31772Anything else? 31772 Are we goin''to''low that?"
31772Are you a loyal man?
31772Build one o''sticks, like these rebels around here? 31772 But whah''m I tuh go?"
31772But what am I going to do with it?
31772But why keep it so long?
31772But you ai n''t hurt any, are you, Pap?
31772Ca n''t you give me a gun, too? 31772 Corporal Klegg, what are you doing back here?
31772Could n''t you see that puddle and keep out of it? 31772 Did n''t you have''one?"
31772Did you clean your feet on the bayonet outside the door?
31772Do I look as dry as a basket of chips? 31772 Do n''t you see they hain''t got their guns with''em?
31772Do with him?
31772Do ye call sneakin''off to jine the enemy and settin''an example to the other niggers nothin''? 31772 Do you mean to say you''ll stop me?"
31772Do you s''pose I''m goin''to help steal a nigger, and then lie about it to the officers, for you galoots, and all for nothin''?
31772Do you want me to have a night mare?
31772Does I hab tuh do dat ebbery mornin'', Boss?
31772Does your father own any?

31772Got him, anyway,he muttered;"now, how in the world kin I load this plaguey gun agin?"
31772Hello,exclaimed the others joyfully;"where did you get that?"
31772Here, what in the world are you men doing there?
31772Here,said Si, with official severity;"you infernal stragglers, what regiments do you belong to?
31772How are we goin''to manage it?
31772How come you to be lookin''for me? 31772 How do you do, my friend?"
31772How do you know there''s a rebel battery on the hill out there?
31772How do you s''pose you''ll ever find Si in all that ruck o''men?
31772How in the world did you git down here?
31772How long ago was that?
31772How many thousand times''s that bin stuffed into your ears? 31772 How much for that pie?"
31772I wonder if it''ll git wuss the nearer we git to the front?
31772If it can be done up in three months, an''we kin git back home, why dribble it out over three years? 31772 Is n''t yo''a- gwine tuh take me wid yo'', mas''r?"
31772Josiah Klegg,said the Deacon sternly,"do you play cards?"
31772Looking for me?

31772Si, what''d you do without me? 31772 Sure of that?"
31772That so?
31772This your day for taking a bath, Si?
31772WHAT is yer a- gwine tub do wid me, mas''r?
31772Well, we''ve licked the stuffin''out of''em at last, have n''t we?

31772Well, why do n''t you plank down the rhino?
31772Wha''fo''? 31772 What are we goin''to do for a chimney, Si?"
31772What are you goin''to do with it, Pap?
31772What are you to report for?
31772What are you up to now, Si?
31772What do you take me for? 31772 What evidence have you?
31772What for?
31772What is it, father?
31772What on airth kin he mean?
31772What''s that? 31772 What''s the matter here?"
31772What, burn all that good money up?
31772Where in blazes have you fellers bin all day?
31772Where in the world did you git them, boys?
31772Where''d you leave your regiment, you chuckle- headed straggler?
31772Where''s the 200th Ind.?
31772Where''s your cap?
31772Where''s your cartridge- box and haversack?
31772Where''s your gun?
31772Which o''you boys got my kittle?
31772Who air ye, anyway? 31772 Who else''s been lookin''for me, I''d like to know?
31772Who is that man?
31772Whom have you here, Sergeant?
31772Why do n''t they send us over there to help those men?
31772Why, Shorty,gasped Si,"how did you git away with it?"
31772Why, father,remonstrated Mrs. Klegg,"how kin you ever git along in them camps, and live the way them soljers do?"
31772Why, what happened?
31772You a Babtist?
31772You do n''t command our brigade, do you?
31772You do n''t live in an insane asylum when you''re at home, do you?
31772You mean helping a slave to get away? 31772 You''d like to go with us, Pap, would n''t you?"
31772You''re sure that dumbed battery''s gone that shot at us last night, are you, Shorty?
31772''Who- is- here?''
31772143]"What''d they want with your old car door?
31772221]"Why do n''t you buy your cheese at home, then, old man?"
3177294]"Well, I wonder what we''re goin''to do for grub?"
31772Ai n''t I a comfort to you every minute of your life?"
31772Am I walking around in a Panama and linen clothes?
31772An''did you ever see such a nice fire?"
31772And they say the name came from the people who first settled in Injianny sayin''''Who''s yer?''
31772And what do you suppose was in that?"
31772Break- down?"
31772But whar''s your company?"
31772But what are you fellers fighting for, anyhow?"
31772But what''s your idee about the roof?
31772But where''ll you get any cedars there to make beds with?
31772But who on airth done it?"
31772But, let me ask you, Sergeant, how many niggers do you own?"
31772But, speakin''o''cold water, kin you give me a drink?
31772Comb my ha''r?
31772D''you hear?
31772D''you see that white thing over there?
31772Did you expect to keep from getting your feet wet when you came into the army?
31772Did you learn whether the owner was a loyal man?"
31772Did you, Shorty?"
31772Do n''t you?"
31772Do you ever remember settin''the whole night on a rail, with nothin''over us but clouds leakin''ice- water?"
31772Do you hear me?
31772Do you hear me?"
31772Do you hear me?"
31772Do you know how to spell Hoosier, Shorty?"
31772Do you own a deck o''cards?"
31772Do you take me for a miserable, traitorous Knight o''the Golden Circle?
31772Do you want to do your soldierin''in heaven?"
31772For what''d you think with?"
31772Got plenty o''cartridges?"
31772Groundhog, have you got a nigger in the wagon?"
31772Hain''t you got no sense, to mix up in such a row?
31772He broke it, and what do you suppose was in it?"
31772He ran over to him and whispered:"What do you see, Shorty?"
31772He stepped to one side to let them pass, but the Lieutenant halted them, and asked authoritatively:"What have you got there, sir?"
31772Here, you nigger, what''s your name?
31772How are we goin''to git''em?
31772How are we going to git away with any o''them?"
31772How does''Hoosier''s Rest''strike you for a name?"
31772How is it?"
31772How kin you think so?"
31772How much''d you give for this?
31772How''d you know I was a- comin''?
31772Is hit a bargain?"
31772Is the whole State o''Tennessee lookin''for me?
31772One o''them slinkin''nigger- stealin''Abolitionists, comin''down here to rob us Southerners of our property?"
31772Remember them swell houses we wuz lookin''at in Louisville?
31772Say, Si, remember Old Susy''s chestnut colt?"
31772Say, boy, what''s your name?"
31772Say, is n''t it just a bully door?"
31772Say, you,"to the white man;"what are you goin''ter do with that man?"
31772Say,"as a bright idea struck him,"what''s the use o''goin''back to the Lootenant at all?
31772See?"
31772Shorty?"
31772Si had a really fine baritone voice, and led the meeting in singing"Am I a soldier of the cross?"
31772That seems almost right, do n''t it, Shorty?"
31772The Conductor walked away muttering:"Blasted thieving whelps o''soldiers, what''ll they steal next?
31772Then he said:"You are from Indiana, are you not?"
31772They jumped out on the ground, and called up:{131}"Here, what''re you fellers doin''up there?
31772Think I want to desert my wife and children?
31772Think I''ve run away from Injianny without pay in''my debts?
31772Understand?"
31772Was they very bad?"
31772What are we goin''to do for a roof?
31772What are we goin''to do with him?"
31772What business have you got with me?
31772What d''you s''pose father and mother''d say if they could see us?"
31772What do you say to startin''a little fire?
31772What kep''you so long?
31772What more could the man want, who had youth, health and strength, than perfect liberty to go where he pleased and strive for what he wanted?
31772What on earth kin they do with them wheels?"
31772What reason have you for saying so?"
31772What was you lookin''for me for?
31772What''d he count them boards for?
31772What''d last night in the guard house amount to, after all?
31772What''ll we do with them when they git back home?"
31772What''s a nigger, anyway?"
31772What''s that?"
31772What''s the matter with drivin''the wagon right up to camp, and swipin''the whole business, horses, wagon and all?"
31772What''s this?
31772What''ve you been lookin''for me for, I''d like to know?"
31772What''ve you got there, a rail?
31772When the train pulled into Nashville that night a very tired old farmer got off and inquired:"How much farther is it to Murfreesboro''?"
31772Where''d the army be if they obeyed that one about not covetin''a horse or other movable property?
31772Where''s our barber?
31772Where''s the division ammunition train?"
31772Where''s your guns?
31772Where''s your regiment?
31772Where''s your shoes?
31772Where''s your{79} caps?
31772While I wuz tryin''to tell him he jabbed his sword into the can o''peaches, and what do you suppose was in that?"
31772Who are the owners of the house?
31772Who ordered you to report?"
31772Why are n''t you in your place?
31772Why ca n''t you lay still, like a white man?"
31772Why in the world do n''t they send us forward?"
31772Why not put up$ 200 in an express pack age and send it to him, marked''from an unknown friend?''"
31772Why not send him$ 100 the same way?"
31772Will any o''you gentlemen have a chaw of terbaker?
31772Would you like something more to eat, Abe?"
31772Ye thought yer 40 acres and a mule wuz jest in sight, did ye?
31772You do n''t think you will see any rebels, do you?"
31772You know how he done it?
31772You recollect that, do n''t you?"
31772You remember how he cleaned out them Maumee Muskrats at chuck- a- luck last pay- day?
31772You''re free; do n''t you understand?"
31772[ Illustration: DO YOU HEAR?
31772[ Illustration: WHAT DO YOU SEE, SHORTY?''

31772[ Illustration:''HOW MUCH''D YOU GIVE FOR THIS?''
31772is?"
31772is?"
31772is?"
31772snorted Shorty,"why in thunder do n''t they move us out, and give us something to do?
31772{ 210}"What is the matter, Pap?"
31772{ 250}"What''s the trouble''twixt you and this man here?"
31772{ 88} But where was the regiment?
36752But how about money to pay our way?
36752But how did Andrews take this disappointment?
36752But is it likely that we could get the chance thus to enlist?
36752But where,Fuller and Murphy asked themselves,"is this engine now?"
36752But why did not that man come to help you? 36752 But,"the objector may continue,"is not a constant resort to falsehood in a secret expedition peculiarly dishonorable?"
36752Did you consider yourself in much danger?
36752Died, has he? 36752 Do you think Andrews will now give up the job of burning those bridges, or will he try again?"
36752Going to supper, was he? 36752 How did you feel while thus waiting in suspense?"
36752How should we meet and deceive the guard?
36752How?
36752If we fail to run the captured train through Chattanooga, will we then disperse or stick together?
36752Mr. Swims, have you got the bread and molasses yet?
36752One they call engine thieves?
36752Pittenger, going to desert? 36752 Shall we stand and fight?
36752Well, what do you think of it?
36752Were you really afraid of being found out, Frank?
36752What do you think of Andrews himself? 36752 What will you do with them?"
36752What''s the matter now?
36752What?--how?--where?
36752Where are the other boys?
36752Why did you not,they say,"reverse your own engine and then jump from it, thus allowing it to knock the pursuing train from the track?"
36752Yes; where is he?
36752_ Three miles!_"Is this the right road?
36752''Will those hounds hunt?''
36752And you thought you would come down here and rob us, and burn our houses, and murder us, did you?
36752Are there two sets of morals,--the one for peace, the other for war?
36752But do you think that spy can be trusted?
36752But from whence came this train?
36752But how had they passed the broken rail?
36752But what lay before them at Kingston?
36752But when viewed soberly, and in the light of all the facts since developed, what were the chances of success and escape possessed by the flying party?
36752But where were we going, that we, with only ten thousand men and an adventurous general, were being hurried Southeast?
36752But would it continue?
36752Can he be trusted?"
36752Can we too often thank God that the whole awful system of slavery has been swept away?
36752Charlie promptly responded,"Oh, that fellow is dead?"
36752Did you find out anything about him?"
36752Did you put him in another room?"
36752Give me your candid opinion, was it right to let them take such a risk?"
36752Goin''to hang him when you get him to Chattanooga?"
36752Going home?
36752Going out as a spy?
36752Got a discharge?
36752Got a furlough?"
36752Had Andrews discovered that we were pursued, and was he making a desperate effort to escape from the enemy?
36752Had he a coat?"
36752Had not some secret enterprise been set on foot in which they were engaged?
36752Had the Federal government made some arrangement at last which applied especially to us, and not to the mass of Union men in the prison?
36752Had the adventurers been stopped there, or had they surprised and destroyed the trains met?
36752Had they failed?
36752He answered,"Ca n''t you write me a pass and sign the commander''s name to it?"
36752He asked how we could be so wicked as to enter the Federal army, to fight against the Southern people and free their negroes?
36752He leaned over my chair, and whispered,"You are a prisoner?"
36752He sprang over to me and demanded sternly,"Pittenger, where''s that officer?"
36752He turned again to me, and said, in a dictatorial manner,--"Who was it that run your engine through?"
36752He was very attentive, and said,--"But has Mitchel men enough for all that?
36752How should he have Andrews''name, and know him to be our leader?
36752How were the soldiers selected who assembled that evening at the rendezvous?
36752I looked at my companion in astonishment, and exclaimed,"What on earth are they doing in Georgia?"
36752I said to him, as politely as I could,--"I suppose, sir, our destination is not known?"
36752In place of"Do they miss me at Home?"
36752Is this not enough for vengeance and for a warning to others?
36752It was too dark to tell whether they were negroes or white men, but I ventured to ask them,--"How far is it to Chattanooga?"
36752LIBERTY OR DEATH?
36752Leadbetter then asked,"What do you soldiers think is going to be done with such a large army?"
36752Might it not be that our persistent struggle against ill- fortune was to win the victory even yet?
36752Oh, what shall we do?"
36752One of the soldiers asked,"If any of us are suspected, and find we ca n''t get away, what would you ad vise us to do?"
36752Or had it that character of practicability which is ever the stamp of true genius?
36752Or was he simply hurrying to the bridges we were to burn?
36752Said Mitchel,"Do you remember a Mr. Andrews, a Kentuckian, who was about our camp last fall?"
36752Said he,--"How old are you?"
36752Said the jailer to the captain,"Where shall I put him?"
36752Shall we attack them now?"
36752Soon Wells returned, and demanded in a peremptory tone,"Pittenger, why did not you give the alarm when he started?''"
36752Then I asked,"What can I do for you?"
36752Then he added, with a most appealing look,"Ca n''t you help me to escape, before it is too late?"
36752Then men, women, and children would rush to the door, staring as if they saw some great monster, and asking,--"Whar did you ketch him?
36752This may also be a good place to answer a question often asked,"How can the equivocation and downright falsehood that follows be justified?"
36752This was terrible, but what could be done?
36752Was it for me he had died,--to show me that no outward shame is too great to be borne by the true heart?
36752Was it for the purpose of exchange?
36752Was it necessary to permit the war to pass from the first into the second stage?
36752Was the whole attempt, as has been frequently asserted, rash and foolhardy?
36752What can cause the delay?
36752What could it portend?
36752What else could they do?
36752What kind of a man is he?"
36752What mattered the cold wind or the bare floor with such a hope?
36752What was the meaning of such a break- neck pace?
36752Where did he get it?"
36752Why might not these be held as hostages to assure our safety, or even exchanged for us?
36752Why should a list be sent from the North?
36752Why should the gallows be accounted infamous when courage and patriotism there meet a hero''s death?
36752Wilson asked the way to the next town, the name of which he pretended he could not just speak, but she helped him out by mentioning--"Cleveland?"
36752Would mercy in our case be misplaced?
36752he returned,"is there a reserve army?"
36752that drunken fellow?"
36752what in thunder are you at now?''
15629( Looking up into his face)--Gordon, do you love me, too?
15629( Without)--So you have come to search the place?
15629( he opens the door) Who''s in here?
15629A confused sound of voices: then Bill says loudly,"Here, whar is he?
15629Ai n''t you don hear''bout dat?
15629Ai n''t you glad it''s recess, and we can eat our lunch down here?
15629Ai n''t you got any mittens, Susie?
15629Alone?
15629And Fair, how is she now?
15629And a coward?
15629And happiness-- is it for us?
15629And if the time has been long to you, how about me there in the camp?
15629And is there anything else-- anything on God''s earth I can do for them?
15629And keep quiet about it?
15629And love and truth-- what do we know of these?
15629And still you do not understand?
15629And the others-- are they, too, working-- Mrs. Stuart and Fair?
15629And the women who love you-- Little Fair and Charlotte?
15629And was there nothing else?
15629And what of Gordon Cabell and Carter Hillary?
15629And will I be the color- bearer, and go with you on the marches, and sleep by the camp fire, and have my rations with your men?
15629And, father, how''s the leg-- nearly well again?
15629Are n''t you getting cold?
15629Are not your chances for escape as good as mine?
15629Are they coming?
15629Are they not torn from us, trampled down, ground beneath our feet?
15629Are they with Morgan, too?
15629Are ye all right, sir?
15629Are you all there?
15629Are you dead?
15629Are you safe?
15629Are you sure we''re not intruding?
15629Bev, did you know Stephen Winthrop and his command had been ordered to the South?
15629Bev, have you spoken to Charlotte?
15629Bev?
15629But how about your rank-- will you be just a private?
15629But how; how will we get the word to him?
15629But is there anything for us except corn meal?
15629But what''s your plan?
15629But what-- I do n''t quite see-- what is it now?
15629But what?
15629But why all this for me?
15629But why, why not you take the news to Morgan?
15629But, say, will you do something for me?
15629But-- if-- I love you, Steve?
15629Can I trust you with the life of Morgan''s army?
15629Can you get me some food?
15629Can you save any of the others, shall we tell them?
15629Careful, eh?
15629Col. S. But how can he get word?
15629Col. S. Dear little girl, what would we do without you?
15629Col. S. How have you boys come?
15629Col. S. Now, what your plan?
15629Col. S. What did he say?
15629Col. S. What is it?
15629Col. S. What is your plan?
15629Col. S. Where''s your mother?
15629Col. S. You think the Twelfth Massachusetts is coming to this part of the state?
15629Dead?
15629Did n''t I tell you dey walked to de mill?
15629Did n''t it seem strange that he and Mr. Hopkins should have visited here just before the war?
15629Did they find any?
15629Do n''t let''s talk about that any more, will you, Bev?
15629Do n''t you want it?
15629Do you remember that day, so many years ago, when you ran away and walked far down the road to meet your father?
15629Does he come here?
15629Does mother know?
15629Does n''t it seem strange for a man with Southern blood to fight against his people?
15629Does that seem very long ago to you, Bev?
15629Ever eat any rat?
15629Fair, did you know father was going back to his regiment to- morrow?
15629Fair, will you wait here with me?
15629Fair?
15629Father, must you go to- morrow?
15629For God''s sake man, where has he gone?
15629For greater love has no man than this, that he-- that he-- what is the rest?
15629For, are not our hearts crushed down in the cold black earth that covers those we love?
15629Had we not better wait for just a little?
15629Has he been in for the last time to- night?
15629Have our men had time?
15629Have they come to this?
15629Have we a right to such a welcome?
15629Have you a horse here?
15629Have you a picket out?
15629Have you had supper?
15629Have you nothing for us to hear?
15629Have you seen Winthrop?
15629Have you thought about tomorrow?
15629He loved this home, did n''t he, mother?
15629He may be dying?
15629He-- didn''t have time to get into the fight, did he?
15629He?
15629Here, see if I know it?
15629Hillary had important news, but what-- what can he have found out?
15629Hopkins, will you conduct the search, as quickly and as quietly as possible?
15629How are they all now, Marthy?
15629How are they?
15629How boy; how can he get the plans to Morgan?
15629How could we?
15629How dey go?
15629How did he hear it?
15629How have you come?
15629How is he now?
15629How much?
15629How was he taken?
15629How will we know when he comes up the drain?
15629How''ll we play-- what with?
15629How''s Col. Winthrop today?
15629How''s that?
15629How, How; what can we do; what can we do?
15629How?
15629How?
15629How?
15629I do n''t understand?
15629I may not ask you-- who?
15629I say, Charlotte, have you asked him?
15629I say, Fair, where''d you put it?
15629I say, what time is it?
15629I suppose I need n''t ask in whose command you are going?
15629I wonder what''s become of them-- the people over there?
15629I wonder why you never like to walk down through the lane any more?
15629I wonder why?
15629I''d love to; may I, dear?
15629In God''s name what will you do?
15629In here?
15629Is he really here?
15629Is he still there?
15629Is n''t it great about the wedding?
15629Is that right?
15629Is there any more?
15629Is there no hope for you: you will not speak?
15629Is there nothing we can do to stop them?
15629Is there nothing you can do?
15629It''s very bad, is n''t it, Marthy?
15629Kin I fix it har for you?
15629Kin you forgib dis old fool nigger?
15629Kin you keep you mouth shet bout somethin if I tells you?
15629Marthy, is you seen dem chullen?
15629Matter?
15629Mother, did you know that Winthrop has had a man stationed near the house for our protection?
15629Mrs. S. Are they disguised?
15629Mrs. S. Did you and Bev go to the mill?
15629Mrs. S. When were they coming?
15629Mrs. S. Where have you been the past three days?
15629Mrs. S. Where?
15629Now guess, Charlotte, before we tell you?
15629Oh, Bev, do you think they could?
15629Oh, can it be George coming home?
15629Oh, have n''t you heard about the wedding?
15629Perhaps you think you''ll find other of your friends?
15629Please?
15629Remember the fight here?
15629Say, boys, want a treat?
15629Say, where''s that young fellow, Hillary?
15629Shall we stop here to- night?
15629She came near it, did n''t she, Bev?
15629So I''m to be told the great secret, am I?
15629That makes you look up, do n''t it?
15629The avenue, you say?

15629Then, may I tell you now?
15629Then, why?

15629Visitors, eh?

15629Was little Stuart-- killed?

15629What can it be?
15629What do drink so damned much for, then?
15629What do we know about things that are best?
15629What do you mean?
15629What do you mean?
15629What do you mean?
15629What do you think I am, a nigger paid to wait on you?
15629What do you think it means?
15629What do you think this is-- a pleasure resort?
15629What do you want?
15629What does that matter?
15629What else, sir?
15629What else?
15629What else?
15629What if she meant it for a signal?
15629What in de name ob Gaud''s de matter wid you?
15629What is it, Marthy?
15629What is it?

15629What is there in this life for us?
15629What more can I promise you?
15629What part of the floor?
15629What time does the warden come on his last rounds?
15629What time is it?
15629What time is it?
15629What was that?
15629What wedding?

15629What you know''bout sprisin''?

15629What''s in that garden?

15629What''s that-- the bell again?
15629What''s that?
15629What''s the matter?
15629What''s the matter?
15629What''s the trouble?
15629What''s this?
15629What''s wrong with him?
15629When Aunt Sally was sick and when Uncle Joe died, do n''t you remember?
15629Where are the people?
15629Where are they?
15629Where can I send it?
15629Where does this lead?
15629Where is Carter?
15629Where is he?
15629Where is he?
15629Where is she?
15629Where will they take him?
15629Where''d you catch him?
15629Where''d you think?
15629Where''s Hillary?
15629Where''s father, Fair?
15629Where''s your midnight spread?
15629Where-- has she gone?
15629Where?
15629Where?
15629Where?
15629Where?
15629Who do you mean, Hopkins?
15629Who else?
15629Who is it?
15629Who''s in command?
15629Who''s that with them?
15629Who''s the fellow came in last night?
15629Who''s there?
15629Who''s there?
15629Why don you git de basket?
15629Why must you go back to the camp to- night?
15629Why not the one you have on now?
15629Why not you?
15629Why, ai n''t you heard a word from them?
15629Why?
15629Will he come here again; oh, mother, will he come?
15629Will you come in?
15629Will you get me the water, please?
15629Will you?
15629With what?
15629Wo n''t you come in and rest?
15629Would she eat a piece ob nice young chicken?
15629Yes, you know it-- you are sure?
15629You call them all my signals?
15629You did this thing for me and for the information to give Morgan?
15629You have them with you?
15629You hear?
15629You mean you''d kill them all?
15629You precious little Fair, there''s not a better uniform in all the South than this, but ca n''t I help you with it?
15629You understand?
15629You will not fail?
15629You wo n''t be long?
15629You wonder then that I''m ashamed to show my fear of losing Bev?
15629You''ll come with us, Miss Charlotte?
15629You''ve promised Carter-- what?
15629You, too, Fair?
15629what''s that?
15629what''s that?
15629when will this end?
42655By whose orders are those troops going up the hill?
42655As they charged, the troops shouted:"If we ca n''t hold it, where will you find the men who can?"
42655But what will be the story of the morrow?
42655Does there not come to the mind the insistent question,"Why?"
42655Farragut signaled:"What''s the trouble?"
42655If he could only detain Longstreet at the gap, why should he not crush Jackson with his superior numbers?
42655They must be Union soldiers; but how did they get there?
42655Who knows?
42655Who will reach the Chattahoochee first?
42655Would the South return to its allegiance, would the Union be divided, or would there be war?
4258Well, you do n''t think you can take me unless I choose to go? 4258 What the---- does Key want with me?"
4258Am I in the other world?"
4258Are you a graduate of any medical college?
4258Did you reduce the results of your investigations to the shape of a report?
4258Did you, while acting under his direction, visit Andersonville, professionally?
4258Early one morning I overheard a conversation between two of these youthful guards:"Say, Bill, I heerd that you shot a Yank last night?"
4258For the purpose of making investigations there?
4258Has your experience been as a practitioner, or rather as an investigator of medicine as a science?
4258Have you examined this extract from your report and compared it with the original?
4258He gasped out:"Where am I?
4258How long have you been engaged in the practice of medicine?
4258How long have you held your position in that college?
4258How were you employed during the Rebellion?
4258Is it accurate?
4258Now, how shall we settle this?
4258Or,"Eddie, son, wo n''t you have another piece of this nice steak?"
4258Regular stand- up- and knock- down, or rough and tumble?"
4258The questioner was always silenced by the return interrogatory:"Is that as bad as running white men down with blood hounds?"
4258Under the direction of whom?
4258What position do you hold now?
4258What regiment is that, and where are you going?''"
4258You went there in obedience to a letter of instructions?
4258dot vos pretty vunny now, ai n''t it?"
4258may be you want to take it up?"
18264Ah, you know me? 18264 All free niggers?"
18264Am I to understand that you renounce your scheme to carry off a woman as a part of the enterprise?
18264Am I to understand that you retire from this enterprise, Captain Carboneer?
18264And who do you think that prisoner is, Horatio?
18264Are these men sailors?
18264Are we to capture her and take her back to the State of Alabama?
18264Are you alone on board?
18264Are you alone, Brewster?
18264Are you mad, Christy? 18264 Are you ready to do duty on board of the Teaser when she is in deep water, Lonley?"
18264Are you still in the army, Corny?
18264Are you the pilot?
18264Are you willing to go to sea by running the blockade, Lonley?
18264As a guest at your house?
18264As you said, Captain Carboneer, I am no sailor; and you do n''t think of taking the steamer out of the river alone?
18264At what time do you think you will get on board of the steamer?
18264Be you de new mate, sar?
18264But are you not going to be on board, Christy? 18264 But how am I to get her into deep water if my crew will not work?"
18264But how was he wounded? 18264 But if you went into the navy, how do you happen to be in New York?"
18264But what is the drum for?
18264But what is to drive her ahead? 18264 But where are your ship''s company?"
18264But where is the steamer?
18264By the way, how many men did you leave on board of the Teaser?
18264Can we not do something for him, mother?
18264Can you see anything?
18264Captain Westover is still on board, and you are to send him to the fort, are you not, Captain Breaker?
18264Come up to the shore, and take me on board, will you?
18264Depends upon what?
18264Did he believe it?
18264Did n''t I tell you not to call me by name?
18264Did n''t she ask about my health, or want to know where I was?
18264Did n''t she mention my name?
18264Did n''t you bring two gentlemen on board, and did n''t one of them want to measure the carriage of the big gun?
18264Did she say anything about her stay at Glenfield?
18264Did she say anything about me?
18264Did she? 18264 Did the enemy carry off the one who was wounded?"
18264Did you come here to take the command out of my hands? 18264 Did you hit her, Christy?"
18264Did you? 18264 Do I understand from what you have said that you intend to take Florry Passford back to the South with you?"
18264Do they think a boat full of men could do that?
18264Do you expect her to go at all when she is hoisted four feet out of water?
18264Do you know anything about this boat, Corny?
18264Do you know if the enemy lost any of their number when the boat was smashed?
18264Do you know what steamer Captain Carbine will have?
18264Do you know where the wounded person is to be found?
18264Do you mean that an attempt was really made to capture the Bellevite last night?
18264Do you mean to be a traitor to your country, Neal?
18264Do you mean to say that you are a pirate?
18264Do you renounce that plan or that idea, whatever it may be?
18264Do you see those two blue lights burning at the side of the river?
18264Do you surrender?
18264Do you think of engaging the enemy at long range, Christy?
18264Do you wish me to leave you alone, Christy?
18264Excuse me, Christy; but what are you going to do? 18264 Go of herself?
18264Have they come again so soon?
18264Have you plenty of steam on?
18264Have you run away from the others?
18264How are your father and mother and Miss Gerty, Corny?
18264How can she? 18264 How could you know anything about that?"
18264How did you come down so early?
18264How do steamers generally go ahead?
18264How do you intend to convey these men, who seem to be scattered all along the shores of the river, to the steamer?
18264How do you know that, for I ca n''t see anything?
18264How does she seem to be?
18264How is it otherwise?
18264How is that?
18264How long do you think the war will last, Captain Carboneer?
18264How long have you been on board of this steamer, Dave?
18264How many have they?
18264How many knots can she do in a smooth sea?
18264How many men have you on board?
18264How many men have you?
18264How many men?
18264How was it in regard to Fort Barrancas and Fort McRae?
18264I did say I had a message for you, did n''t I? 18264 I do n''t want him: do you, mother?"
18264I said''Is that you, Christy?'' 18264 I suppose they will let us go, wo n''t they?"
18264I suppose you do n''t know anything about the effect of the shot yet?
18264I suppose you insist upon serving the Confederacy, Dave?
18264I suppose you remember the Dauphine, which was fitting out when you were in Mobile Bay?
18264If I were gifted in this respect as you are, Captain Gilder, do you know what I would do?
18264In other words, will it be necessary to put you under guard?
18264In what direction were the shots, Beeks?
18264Indeed? 18264 Is Captain Carboneer on board of that steamer?"
18264Is Captain Folkner on board?
18264Is Christy on board?
18264Is Miss Florry at home?
18264Is everything all right on board, Sampson?
18264Is he very badly wounded, Major Pierson?
18264Is it Jeff Davis?
18264Is n''t that a white man with the hands?
18264Is that question settled?
18264Is that so?
18264Is that you, Captain Gilder?
18264Is that you, Christy?
18264Is that you, Christy?
18264Is that you, major?
18264Is there any news about my appointment in the engine- room, Christy?
18264Let us go where?
18264Now, Captain Carboneer, will you kindly inform me in regard to the status of this vessel? 18264 Now, do you know whether there is any person on board of that steamer?"
18264Now, in regard to the ladies?
18264Of course, you brought letters from your father and Gerty?
18264Perhaps you want him, Florry?
18264Perhaps you will be willing to inform me what became of Major Pierson and Corny Passford-- the latter a cousin of yours, I believe?
18264Say, what sort of a joke is this?
18264Seriously?
18264That means to run the blockade?
18264The Yazoo?
18264Then Major Pierson is no longer in the army?
18264Then he is still in the service?
18264Then if I do not yield the point, you intend to leave me to carry out this enterprise alone?
18264Then she is an English- built steamer?
18264Then what would you do in the way of persuasion?
18264Then why should they choose such a night as this for their work?
18264Then you intend to be a sailor, Corny?
18264Then you knew about this vessel?
18264Then you mean to be a traitor, Corny?
18264Was he at the house when you were there?
18264Well, why do n''t you tell what you know?
18264Were any wounded?
18264What are the others for?
18264What are you going to do next, Christy?
18264What are you going to do with your prisoner, Christy?
18264What are you waiting for, Flint?
18264What became of Major Pierson?
18264What can I do more than I have done?
18264What can I do without any crew to help get the steamer through the sound?
18264What could have disabled her?
18264What do you mean by that, my son?
18264What do you propose to do? 18264 What do you suppose they will do with us?"
18264What do you suppose will be done with us, sir?
18264What do you wish to know about her?
18264What does that mean?
18264What does this mean, mother?
18264What does this mean?
18264What have you been about? 18264 What in the world are you talking about, Mulgate?"
18264What is all that racket on deck?
18264What is that for?
18264What is that?
18264What is the reason they wo n''t work?
18264What is there off in that direction?
18264What is this boat here for, Dave?
18264What is to be done?
18264What is your name, my man?
18264What more is there to do?
18264What should I want of him?
18264What steamer do you think it is?
18264What steamer is that?
18264What steamer is that?
18264What steamer is that?
18264What vessel is that?
18264What''s that for, Christy?
18264What''s the row there, Sampson?
18264When are the rest of the ship''s company to join you?
18264When do you expect to get through the sound?
18264Where are all the men?
18264Where are the rest of the men?
18264Where away?
18264Where did it strike her?
18264Where did this steamer come from?
18264Where have you anchored?
18264Where have you been all day and all the evening, Christy?
18264Where is Captain Lonley now?
18264Where is Christy, Uncle Horatio?
18264Where is he now?
18264Where is this long gun, my man?
18264Where was she fitted out, Dave?
18264Which is Dave''s side?
18264Which side do you belong on?
18264Who are those two men forward?
18264Who are you? 18264 Who are you?"
18264Who are you?
18264Who are you?
18264Who is Haslett?
18264Who is it?
18264Who is it?
18264Who is speaking?
18264Who is the prisoner?
18264Who is this Captain Carboneer?
18264Who were those two men who were on board?
18264Who''s in dat boat?
18264Who''s there?
18264Whose boat is it?
18264Why do n''t the ship give chase?
18264Why do you object to going out through Santa Rosa Sound?
18264Why do you talk about an outrage? 18264 Why not go down in the Florence?"
18264Why, what is in it?
18264Will that satisfy you, Captain Folkner?
18264Will you come on board, sir?
18264You do n''t expect them to put you on board of the Bellevite again, do you?
18264You do n''t mean that you had a fight, Christy?
18264You do not expect me to shoot you in that case, I hope?
18264You say that everything is ready to start the fires, Sampson?
18264You seem to have been successful in your undertaking?
18264You think Captain Carboneer would board the steamer, do you?
18264You whipped them out, did you, midshipman?
18264Am I to take off the men in the engine department?"
18264Blowitt?"
18264But how are Aunt Lydia and Gerty?"
18264But what will you do with your prisoner, Christy?"
18264CHAPTER XII THE PRISONER OF WAR"What in the world have you been doing, Christy?"
18264Did n''t you tell me to get up steam, because the steamer would be moved to the navy yard before daylight in the morning?"
18264Did you get an idea of any kind?"
18264Did you have any trouble in getting out of the bay?"
18264Do you know him?"
18264Do you know what it means?"
18264Do you renounce that scheme entirely?"
18264Do you want him?"
18264Folkner?"
18264Folkner?"
18264From how far off do you calculate that those sounds come?"
18264Has n''t that been your experience, Mr. Mulgate-- I beg your pardon, Major Pierson?"
18264Have n''t you discovered anything?"
18264Have you any prisoners?"
18264I suppose Captain Folkner did not trouble himself about the forts, Dave, did he?"
18264I suppose Captain Folkner has sent the boats over there for them before this time?"
18264I suppose you have nothing on your hands?"
18264Is Gilder on board?"
18264Is n''t it very strange that I should forget a message of so much importance that it could not be trusted to writing?"
18264Is she a naval vessel, or simply a blockade runner?"
18264Is she expected to go of herself?"
18264Is that the reason why you sent all my men to Town Point?"
18264Is there anything new?"
18264It was not the captain, was it?"
18264Lonley?"
18264Major Pierson, who is he?"
18264Now to business: what have you learned?"
18264Of course they will try to join the steamer to- night or to- morrow; and why not let them do it?"
18264Passford?
18264Passford?"
18264Passford?"
18264Passford?"
18264Passford?"
18264Passford?"
18264Passford?"
18264Passford?"
18264Passford?"
18264Was any one on board of the Vampire killed in this affair?"
18264Watts?"
18264Watts?"
18264What about Corny, sir?"
18264What are you about, Flint?"
18264What are you talking about?"
18264What did you say?"
18264What do you say to taking the berth of first officer in her, Fetters, for I know that you are a sailor, and that you have pluck enough to fire a gun?"
18264What has Captain Folkner been doing all this time?"
18264What should he do?
18264What was the gentleman that wanted to buy a steamer in Nassau doing up the Hudson?
18264Where are all your men?"
18264Who are all those men in the boat with you, Gilder?"
18264Who could come here at this time in the evening?"
18264Why do n''t he come on shore?"
18264Why was he so mad?"
18264You buoyed it, did you not?"
18264You said that my father has not yet returned from the city?"
43922Where are my pontoons?
43922During the conquest of Georgia the Confederates were much awed by the Brady"what is it?"
43922The collection will be valuable to the student and artist of the present generation, but_ how much more valuable it will be to future generations_?"
43922[ Illustration: BRADY''S"WHAT IS IT?"
43922soon earned for them the epithet of the"What is it?"
18803And what was that decision?
18803And who is this gentleman?
18803Anything strange about the address?
18803Are there any steamers to sail to- day? 18803 Are you a British subject?"
18803Are you a frien''ob de colored man?
18803Are you a prisoner of war?
18803Are you an American citizen, Captain Sawlock?
18803Are you in earnest, Lieutenant Passford?
18803Are you sure that is all?
18803Arn''t you Americans?
18803But do you think it will be a month before her case will be settled?
18803But how far is it from the Bermudas to the nearest point in the Bahamas? 18803 But then what use shall you make of your advantage in speed and weight of metal?"
18803But what am I to do?
18803But what do you think of my scheme to get you out of this scrape before you get into any trouble here?
18803But what does this mean? 18803 But what has the steamer stopped for?"
18803But where are your men? 18803 But why can you not go in and see if the Dornoch is there?"
18803But why did the fool hoist the British flag when he has no papers to back it up? 18803 By the way, Christy, from what prison in the Confederacy did you make your escape?"
18803Can you explain why the Ionian is headed for the Bermudas, for you have later information than any in my possession?
18803Can you make out what she is?
18803De ossifers and men ob de Reindeer will go asho''when you done took de steamer; do n''t you see dat, massa?
18803Did he never lose a vessel?
18803Do n''t you know me?
18803Do you claim that the Snapper is a British vessel?
18803Do you feel any soreness at the wound in your arm?
18803Do you know her name, Captain Passford?
18803Do you know of any steamers up this bay, my man?
18803Do you know of any vessels up here loading with cotton?
18803Do you know of any vessels, any schooners, or steamers, inside the bay, Quimp?
18803Do you know to what port she is bound?
18803Do you know, Captain Flanger, that I believe we are getting into a very bad scrape?
18803Do you live here, Percy?
18803Do you mean that you do n''t know, my man?
18803Do you mean to murder me?
18803Do you speak French, gentlemen?
18803Do you speak French?
18803Do you speak French?
18803Do you still keep your three agents in the island of Great Britain?
18803Do you surrender, Captain Vickers?
18803Do you surrender?
18803Do you think you can trust Captain Flanger to put me in the way to get to Key West?
18803Do you think you could leap to the ledge?
18803Do you think you would have kept your promise to have Captain Flanger land me at Key West, if I had been weak enough to go on board of his steamer?
18803Do you wish to go on board of her, sir?
18803Does that prove that any Americans are traitors in and about New York, father?
18803Feefty cents; how much money was zat?
18803For what port are you bound?
18803Have n''t you been sea- sick?
18803Have you a clearance for that port?
18803Have you a revolver in your pocket?
18803Have you ever been in the Bahamas?
18803Have you ever taken the oath of allegiance to the United States government?
18803Have you forgotten the affair of the Trent, when Messrs. Mason and Slidell were taken out of an English steamer? 18803 Have you no one on board who speaks French, Captain Chantor?"
18803How are you, Christy?
18803How are you, Christy?
18803How big is that steamer, Quimp?
18803How could I be a prisoner in a neutral port like Nassau? 18803 How could I ever look your father in the face if I permitted you to get into trouble here?"
18803How could you do that?
18803How could you go in without going in the ship?
18803How deep is the water inside of these keys, Quimp?
18803How did you know my name?
18803How far you must go to get into Nassau?
18803How long do you mean to be absent on this business?
18803How long ze Dornoch will she stop in zat port?
18803How many knots can you make in your ship, Captain Chantor?
18803How many men has she on board?
18803How many men shall I put on board of her?
18803How many of them are there on the island, Captain Stopfoot?
18803How much shall I pay you for this sail?
18803How much was the punt worth?
18803How much you gwine to gib me, massa, if I told you?
18803How much you make pay to go to Nassau in ze carriage?
18803How near Gibbs Hill light can you go with safety in the darkness, Captain?
18803How should I know, Captain?
18803How was that?
18803How will I get to the Royal Victoria Hotel?
18803How would you manage the matter?
18803How you write him-- like zis?
18803I am Mr. Gilfleur; have I the honor to address Lieutenant Passford?
18803I am just going out to take a sail; wo n''t you join me?
18803I beg your pardon, Captain Chantor, but do you consider that you have a right to capture that steamer?
18803I have no doubt about your powers; but can you not aid me in getting to England?
18803I presume that you are in the British navy, Captain Rombold?
18803I see it is; but what has that to do with this matter?
18803I should; why not?
18803I spose, if Captain Stopfoot kill me for w''at I done do, you''ll bury me side de old woman dat done gone to glory ten year ago?
18803I suppose this steamer is to run the blockade?
18803I suppose you have a family, Quimp?
18803If you intend to murder me, why ca n''t you do the deed here on deck?
18803If you know the men who are engaged in supplying the enemy with machinery, why do you not have them arrested and put in Fort Lafayette?
18803Indeed, what could be better than the position of an officer in the Royal navy?
18803Is it for ordinary service, Captain Chantor?
18803Is it possible that it is you?
18803Is it possible?
18803Is she a Confederate vessel?
18803Is she gaining upon you, Captain?
18803Is that all you had to start with, my friend?
18803Is that so? 18803 Is that steamer armed, Quimp?"
18803Is that your boat?
18803Is there a United States flag on board of this craft, Captain Stopfoot?
18803Is this your carriage?
18803Monsieur Gilfleur?
18803Mr. Carlin, you will remain on deck with the men; Mr. Passford and Mr. Gilfleur, may I trouble you to come into the cabin with me?
18803My information in regard to this treason comes from Warnock-- you know who he is?
18803Of course she is to run the blockade; how else could she get into Mobile?
18803Of course you have Confederate flags in abundance?
18803Or at the one in your thigh?
18803Or have I asked an indiscreet question?
18803Pray, who might you be?
18803Shall I sail you over to the sea- gardens now, sir?
18803Suppose both of them know us: what difference will that make?
18803The brother of Captain Passford?
18803The captain''s name?
18803The steamer of which you speak is already loaded, is she?
18803Then we are to make a capture of it?
18803Then what are you doing here?
18803Then why did you hoist the British flag?
18803Then you are the gentleman who found the stewardess of the Bellevite when she ran away with a bag of French gold at Havre?
18803Then you do n''t care to stay here, where you have to work hard for little money?
18803Then you have been in a fight?
18803Then you intended to keep it?
18803They will discharge him in time to sail on the tide, wo n''t they?
18803To what hotel shall I carry the valises?
18803Undoubtedly; but what is the Ionian to do in the Bermudas? 18803 W''at''s the matter, Massa Ossifer?
18803Want a boat, sir?
18803We have ten miles to make: with this breeze, how long will it take for this boat to do it?
18803Well, how do you find yourself, Christy?
18803Well, sir, suppose I decline to do so?
18803What are these men for that were sent off in the tug?
18803What are you afraid of?
18803What are you doing in Nassau, Christy?
18803What are you waiting for, Mr. Dawbin? 18803 What became of this Percy Pierson?"
18803What can that be?
18803What do you intend to do with these?
18803What do you say, Christophe?
18803What does all this mean, Christophe?
18803What else could he do?
18803What else could you do? 18803 What is all this about?
18803What is her name?

18803What is your name, my man?
18803What is your name?
18803What shall I do with you then?
18803What sort of a man is he?
18803What steamer is this?
18803What time is it high tide, David?
18803What time will the steamer sail?
18803What was his came?

18803Where do you want to go, sir?
18803Where is Mr. Gilfleur? 18803 Where is the Bronx and her prize now, Kingman?"
18803Where is the captain?
18803Where is your boat?
18803Where were you born on Long Island?
18803Where were you horn?
18803Who is he, David?
18803Why did n''t you shoot me like a gentleman, and not blow my nose off?
18803Why do n''t she go, then?
18803Why do you presume such a stupid idea as that?
18803Why not? 18803 Why not?"
18803Why not?
18803Why not?
18803Why should n''t they? 18803 Why should she wait all that time?"
18803Why so?
18803Why was I not summoned as a witness at his examination?
18803Will she capture the Snapper?
18803Will you produce your clearance and other papers?
18803Wot you want to know, massa?
18803Yes, I know; but where in Nassau do you wish to go? 18803 You are carrying no starboard and port light?"
18803You are in the military, my friend?
18803You are not? 18803 You are not?
18803You are sure of it?
18803You did not expect to see me fold my arms when a representative of the United States, and under our flag, was attacked by a lot of ruffians?
18803You do n''t know?
18803You do n''t''spect you find no steamers up dis bay, does you, massa?
18803You will attend to the bells as usual, will you?

18803But what has become of the chase?"
18803But what shall I do with you now?
18803But where shall I land you?"
18803Can you cross it in this boat?"
18803Carlin?"
18803Carlin?"
18803Dawbin?"
18803Did you mean me no harm when you attempted to entice me on board of the Snapper?
18803Did you mean me no harm when you engaged Flanger and his ruffians to make me a prisoner, and put me on board of his steamer?
18803Do I look like a sick one?
18803Do n''t you see that it is knocked into a cocked hat?"
18803Do you consent?"
18803Do you decline to show your papers?
18803Do you know anything about these vessels in the harbor, Joseph?"
18803Do you see my nose?
18803Do you surrender?"
18803Do you think it would be honorable for a soldier to revenge himself on neutral ground for a wound received in the field?"
18803Do you tink, massa, I can go on bord of her wid you?
18803For the present, Mr. Passford, will you oblige me by keeping in the shade till I send for you?"

18803How could they get away?"
18803How do you happen to be here?"
18803How is any one in Washington or London to know anything about this little affair of to- night?"
18803How much longer do you intend to cruise in this boat?"
18803I presume you go to the northward of Great Abaco Island?"
18803If one of the owners would not stand by the vessel, why did you do so?"
18803Is it possible that you could get along without one?"
18803Mr. Birdwing,"he continued, after the first lieutenant had reported to him,"had you any difficulty in effecting the capture of the Snapper?"
18803Now where is the Reindeer?"
18803Passford?"
18803Passford?"
18803Passford?"
18803Passford?"

18803Shall I drive you to a hotel?
18803Was you ever bit by an alligator, Massa Ossifer?"
18803What is your opinion?"
18803Where do you live, Percy?"
18803Who began this quarrel?"
18803Why do n''t you obey my order?"
18803Why should I add three hundred miles to my voyage when there is no reason for it?"
18803Will people believe that we came even from the Great Abaco in an open boat?"
18803You will break through the blockade?"
18803_ Merci._ Was there much blockadeers here in ze islands?"
18803and why did you not abandon the steamer when he did so?
18803it was ze blockheads, was it?"
18816''Pose I do n''t answer''em?
18816Am I considered a prisoner of war?
18816And the second lieutenant?
18816And you did not come on board of the Vernon last evening?
18816Any orders, Captain Passford?
18816Any seaman?
18816Are those four very large,--long as this cabin is wide?
18816Are we to understand that one of these officers is the double of the other?
18816Are you a Russian?
18816Are you a free man?
18816Are you a sailor?
18816Are you sure of this information, Mike?
18816Are you telling me the truth, Uncle Job?
18816Are you the son of Colonel Passford?
18816Barataria Bay-- that locality is noted for something in history, is n''t it, captain?
18816Boddyvale? 18816 But Christy has disappeared all the same; and where do you suppose he is?"
18816But can you not recall some event or circumstance which will throw some light on the mystery?
18816But do n''t you believe it will be better to appeal to the flag- officer?
18816But how is this desirable end to be accomplished?
18816But what are we going to do, Massa Christy?
18816But what became of Corny?
18816But what could have been his object in coming into the house?
18816But where did you learn this history of Corny''s operations?
18816But where is Walsh?
18816But why are you out at this time of night, my son? 18816 But why are you out doors at this time of night?"
18816But why were they brought off if the steamer is still in the bay?
18816By the way, Christy, have you heard anything from him or his family lately?
18816Ca n''t you spell it?
18816Can you form any idea where we are, Captain Passford?
18816Can you get into it?
18816Can you make out where you are, Mike?
18816Can you tell me what position Mr. Flint has on board?
18816Corny pretended to be Christy, did he? 18816 Could you hear any slapping of a paddle wheel, or other noises that sound like a steamer?"
18816Did I, indeed? 18816 Did Mr. Flint say anything?"
18816Did he bring you an order to this effect?
18816Did n''t I hear the report of a firearm in this direction just now?
18816Did she?
18816Did you believe that I intended to let you take possession of this steamer, and run her into a Confederate port, Corny? 18816 Did you keep a copy of that report?"
18816Did you learn his name?
18816Do n''t you know me, Dave?
18816Do n''t you know me, Uncle Job?
18816Do n''t you know?
18816Do the people there really expect to put down the Rebellion, as they call it, nephew?
18816Do you ever drink whiskey, Pennant?
18816Do you expect me to obey your orders?
18816Do you know where we are bound, Mike?
18816Do you know who is in that berth, Warton?
18816Do you mean that you had a mutiny to suppress?
18816Do you refer to the lieutenant appointed to the command of the Bronx on our arrival in the Gulf?
18816Do you remember the names of the officers who served with you in the Vixen?
18816Do you say that Captain Flanger has been a smuggler in these waters?
18816Do you surrender?
18816Do you think any one came into the house?
18816Do you think he could go out into the cabin, doctor?
18816Do you think it advisable to do so at once?
18816Do you think you should have let these conspirators run into Pensacola Bay without meddling with the matter?
18816Do you wish to leave this place, Uncle Job?
18816Does he talk at all?
18816Does your patient below seem to be improving, doctor?
18816Excuse me, Captain Battleton; may I ask a question?
18816Has she any big guns?
18816Have you a copy of your report, Lieutenant Passford?
18816Have you anything to say in regard to it?
18816How are you going to get to the entrance of the bay in a fog?
18816How do you feel?
18816How do you find yourself, Corny?
18816How high is the grass in the streets of New York, Christy?
18816How is your health?
18816How many guns has it? 18816 How many men are there at the fort?"
18816How many men have you on board, Captain Flanger?
18816How old a man does he appear to be?
18816How shall you manage it?
18816How''s de sick man, Massa Gumboat?
18816I beg your pardon, Captain Flanger, but do you really purpose to blow out the brains of your figure- head?
18816I beg your pardon, Captain Flanger; but do I understand that you intend, single- handed and alone, to capture the Bronx?
18816I can not explain it-- how can I?
18816I do n''t know; do you, Rockton?
18816I think I know one of the old men,added the Russian as he returned from the door,"Shall I wake him up?"
18816In what town or city is your father''s estate situated?
18816Is Bonnydale the name of the town or city in which your father lives?
18816Is he a prisoner?
18816Is he an old man?
18816Is he really sick, doctor?
18816Is it really you, Captain Passford?
18816Is that so? 18816 Is that you, Pink Mulgrum?"
18816Is the Bronx in condition for immediate service, Captain Passford?
18816Is there a doctor there?
18816Is there any doctor at the big house?
18816Is there any officer on board with whom you have served?
18816Is this the fact?
18816It is easy enough to say that I may depart; but how shall I do it?
18816Naval officer, sir?
18816Now have you looked at your orders?
18816Now will you inform me, Mr. Passford, who your officers were?
18816Now, how are aunt Lydia and Gerty? 18816 Now, mister, will you tell me who you are before I say anything more?
18816Now, who is your man?
18816Pardon me, Mr. Passford, but were you not sick when you came on board of the Vernon last evening?
18816Say, Massa Ossifer, is Massa Linkum in yore gumboat?
18816Sealed orders?
18816Shall I help you to some of these fried potatoes? 18816 Shall we find no one at the negro quarters?"
18816The coast guard? 18816 Then I am to do duty as a figure- head, am I?"
18816Then my uncle has vessels in that bay which are to run out?
18816Then the Floridian is all ready to come out of the bay?
18816Then there are cotton vessels at that port, are there?
18816Then you have reversed the decision of Captain Battleton?
18816Then you were not at Bonnydale?
18816This is my cabin, is it?
18816Was I ever there, captain? 18816 Well, Dave, how is your prisoner?"
18816Well, Mr. Passford, are you all right?
18816Well, what is there over there?
18816Were you ever there, Mike?
18816Were you in charge of the sloop, uncle Homer?
18816Whar de gumboat?
18816Whar you gwine, Massa Ossifer?
18816What am I to do, Captain Passford?
18816What are you about?
18816What are you doing out here at this time of night?
18816What are you doing with a valise?
18816What boat is that?
18816What do you know about him, Christy?
18816What do you know about the fort?
18816What do you mean by hands?
18816What do you mean by that, Corny?
18816What do you mean by that?
18816What do you suppose has become of him? 18816 What does he say in regard to me?"
18816What does that mean, my man?
18816What good will that do?
18816What has broken now, mother?
18816What is it, Gorman?
18816What is she doing now in the bay?
18816What is that for?
18816What is that, captain?
18816What is the Bellevite doing off here, so far from her station, Paul?
18816What is the matter now?
18816What is the matter, Captain Passford?
18816What is your age?
18816What is your name, boy?
18816What sloop is that?
18816What steamer is that?
18816What then?
18816What time shall you come about?
18816What''s that, Captain Passford?
18816What''s the trouble here, Captain Passford?
18816When did you last hear from Corny, uncle Homer?
18816Where are the negro quarters of this plantation, Mike?
18816Where are you bound, Captain Passford?
18816Where did she come from?
18816Where did you hide, for the vessel has been searched in every part of her for you?
18816Where does he live?
18816Where does he live?
18816Where does she lie now?
18816Where is your bag?
18816Where were you yesterday, Corny?

18816Who was your first lieutenant?
18816Who were the men with muskets on board of the sloop?
18816Who''s there?
18816Why did you bless the Lord that you were here at last?
18816Why do you say that we have struck the right man, Mike?
18816Why do you think it is not likely, Captain Passford?
18816Why not, my son?
18816Why not?
18816Why so, Captain Passford?
18816Why was it necessary to give secret orders for such an expedition as this?
18816Will it be the highest prudence to permit the conspirators to take the Bronx into a Confederate port, Pensacola, or any other?
18816Will you deny that you were employed as a servant at the house of Captain Passford, at Bonnydale on the Hudson?
18816Will you give us your name in full, if you please?
18816Will you set a nigger upon me again, Christy?
18816With what was she loaded?
18816Wot you gwine to do ober dar, massa?
18816Yes, sar; what''s dat, massa?
18816You appear to be wounded, Captain Flanger?
18816You are not sea- sick?
18816You believe that your papers were taken from you, and the blanks substituted for them?
18816You decline to give me your sealed orders? 18816 You did not?"
18816You do not wish to make any explanation of the remarkable situation in which you find yourself placed at the present moment?
18816You have the names of the four men that I sent to you by the steward, have you not?
18816You know me, do n''t you, Boxie?
18816You were not sick last evening?

18816Are you not going to give them to me?"
18816Are you not the officer presented to me by Captain Battleton, Captain Passford?"
18816Be you a doctor, sar?"
18816But how are all at home, Christy?"
18816But what was my uncle doing on board of your sloop, with Captain Flanger and the rest of your party?"
18816But what was the use to think of it?
18816But you do not run away with the idea that it is necessary for you, as the present commander of the Bronx, to visit this place?"
18816By the way, Corny, where is my commission that you and he stole from my pocket at Bonnydale?"
18816By the way, where did you learn that my cousin attempted to take the Bronx into Pensacola Bay?"
18816Byron?"

18816Do I correctly understand you, Captain Passford?"
18816Do I look enough like him to be taken for him?"
18816Do you cod this a farce?"
18816Do you know what an impostor is, Dave?"

18816He had seen you and your relative together, I believe?"
18816He is dressed, is he not?"

18816Is he able to walk?"
18816Is he aware of the fact that there is another Richmond in the field?"
18816Is he dressed?"
18816Is the steamer armed, Mike?"
18816Is this the fact?"
18816Is''t a Yankee gumboat?"

18816Then you are still the commander of the Bronx?"
18816There is a fort here?"
18816Was n''t the commission decided to be mine?"
18816Was that true?"
18816Were you bound to Appalachicola?"
18816Were you in earnest in what you said about not liking your present position, Christy?"
18816What is the matter?"
18816What is to be done?

26892About two streets away, eh George?
26892Ai n''t this Fuller''s train?
26892And run your ammunition right into the hands of the Yankees?
26892And what are you doing down here?
26892Anything wrong at the Jasons''?
26892Anything wrong?
26892Are we anywhere near Squire Peyton''s?
26892Are we to be murdered?
26892Are you going to give us up?
26892Are you making full speed?
26892Are you ready to go, boys?
26892Are you ready, then, to swim across the Chickamauga?
26892Are you there, Watson?
26892Are you tired, too, Macgreggor?
26892Be the powder there?
26892But what will the men pretend to be while on their way down to Marietta?
26892But you know where you''re going?
26892Ca n''t I go to sleep?
26892Ca n''t you make better use of it than this? 26892 Can Hare have told them, after all?"
26892Can I take my dog along with us, wherever we go?
26892Can either of you fellows talk like a darky?
26892Can he possibly have gotten wind of our expedition?
26892Can he suspect us?
26892Can it be cavalry?
26892Can the enemy have telegraphed from Big Shanty to Kingston by some circuitous route? 26892 Can we spend the night here, so that we can cross the river in the morning?"
26892Can you hear me? 26892 Can you hold out for another mile or so?"
26892Can you see any flag?
26892Can you swim?
26892Can you, George?
26892Change our characters?
26892Did you meet''The General''?
26892Do n''t you want me to go along with you?
26892Do you all come from the same part of Kentucky?
26892Do you hear that?
26892Do you know if he''s living at his place now?
26892Do you see what I want?
26892Do you think you''re strong enough to venture across?
26892Do you two tramp through the country together?
26892From Cincinnati? 26892 Gracious me,"cried Mrs. Hare;"did you bring that little fellow all the way from Kentucky?"
26892Have either of you got anything to say?
26892Have you fallen in love with the boy who sang, Laura?
26892Hear what? 26892 Heard anything from the passenger yet?"
26892How could I help it?
26892How did you find that out?
26892How long is this sort of thing to be kept up?
26892How many are there of them?
26892How many more trains are we to wait for?
26892How much powder have you got on board?
26892How much powder have you got on board?
26892How near were you to the Sorrel Horse Hotel?
26892How on earth did you know Waggie''s name?
26892How on earth did you turn up here in the guise of a Confederate officer?
26892How was that for a starter?
26892I say,repeated the latter,"is your home in Ohio?"
26892I suppose you think yourself pretty smart, do n''t you?
26892If I wo n''t?
26892Is he going too?
26892Is he here now?
26892Is n''t it strange?
26892Is that you, boys?
26892Is there anything I can do for you?
26892Is this Major Lightfoot?
26892Look here, pop,she cried,"do you expect me to cook for a hotel?
26892Mr. Andrews,he said, coming up close to the leader, and speaking in a whisper,"ca n''t I go to Marietta, too?"
26892Near what town?
26892No boy with a dog?
26892No one hurt, boys?
26892Nonsense,interrupted a voice,"do n''t you know night''s just the time which they will take for escape?"
26892Nothing wrong, I hope?
26892Run where?
26892Say Jake, wo n''t you ask us in to have something warm to drink?
26892Seen no suspicious characters?
26892Shall we cut a wire?
26892Shall we find an engine here?
26892Shall we go up to the house, and ask for something?
26892Shall we knock at the door?
26892Shall we make it?
26892Shall we stop on the bridge?
26892Shall we take up a rail?
26892So that''s the name of the river, eh?
26892So then you''re a Northerner, are you, my son?
26892So you all come from Kentucky?
26892So you are Northern spies, are you?
26892Some animal?
26892Some darky may live in it now, eh?
26892That yarn worked admirably, did n''t it?
26892The Generalwas soon motionless, whereupon Watson, peering out from the baggage car, called out:"Anything wrong?"
26892Then we dare not keep on to Chattanooga?
26892Then what are we to do?
26892Then you do n''t believe us?
26892There''s nothing like smallpox, eh?
26892They would n''t hang the boy, would they?
26892Wait till doomsday, why do n''t you say?
26892Well, Waggie,he said,"we make three wet looking tramps, do n''t we?
26892Well, since poor Mitchell is dead, how would you like to go as a volunteer aid on the staff of one of our generals?
26892Well, stranger,he said,"did I hear you say you were from Kentucky?
26892Well?
26892Wha''foah you fellows gwine come heh foah?
26892What are those circumstances?
26892What are you doing here, youngster?
26892What are you going to do?
26892What can have gotten into George''s head?
26892What d''ye mean,he shouted,"by trying to run me down?"
26892What did he mean by too young?
26892What did you lag behind at the station for, George?
26892What did you let''em get away from you for?
26892What do you mean?
26892What do you mean?
26892What do you mean?
26892What do you want him for?
26892What do you want to do?
26892What does this red flag mean?
26892What does_ what_ mean?
26892What for you gwyne to disturb an ole niggah at dis hour?
26892What have I done?
26892What is it?
26892What is the good?
26892What is this powder train of yours, anyway?
26892What part of the town did you live in?
26892What was the boy up to,thought Watson,"and what''s to become of him?"
26892What you folks want?
26892What you gemmen want dis time o''night wid poor Aunty Dinah?
26892What''s that?
26892What''s the matter now?
26892What''s the matter, Brown?
26892What''s the matter?
26892What''s the matter?
26892What''s the matter?
26892What''s the matter?
26892What''s the matter?
26892What''s the trouble?
26892What''s to become of Waggie?
26892What''s up, anyway?
26892When did the dog stray in?
26892Where are we?
26892Where did you come from before you took to begging?
26892Where did you come from?
26892Where did you get your dog from, lad?
26892Where did you learn the art, George?
26892Where on earth are you?
26892Where shall we go?
26892Who brought the letter?
26892Who is the tall chap with the beard who has charge of the train?
26892Who''s coming to see you this kind of night?
26892Whose cabin is this?
26892Why did I let Waggie go in the car?
26892Why did n''t Jason''s son tackle the fellows?
26892Why did n''t you tell us before?
26892Why did you take Fuller''s engine?
26892Why is Beauregard in such a hurry for ammunition?
26892Why is the road blocked up behind you?
26892Why should this old gentleman and I be enemies?
26892Why so?
26892Why was America ever discovered by that inquisitive, prying old Christopher Columbus?
26892Why, do n''t you know what that means? 26892 Why, since when have you started to keep dogs, parson?"
26892Will that freight never turn up?
26892Will we have time to burn the bridge?
26892Will you do as I tell you?
26892You and I are having an exciting time of it, are n''t we?
26892You do n''t want me to be married twenty times, do you, my boy?
26892You have n''t seen any one suspicious about here, have you, parson?
26892You have no home?
26892You were in one of the forward cars, were n''t you? 26892 You''ll admit,"said Lightfoot,"that I was too clever for you?"
26892*****"Where had George gone?"
26892An old man, with snow- white hair and beard, cried out:"Is that dog in the car part of your ammunition?"
26892And Waggie has some tricks, has n''t he?"
26892And are the rest of you willing?"
26892And what of George Knight?
26892And what were Watson, Jenks and Macgreggor thinking about his sudden exit from the scene?
26892And when it comes to defending ourselves, how can we put up any sort of barricade?"
26892And where were the missing man, boy, and dog?
26892Any one to see me?"
26892Are you willing to trust me blindly?"
26892As the engine of the latter passed slowly by"The General"Andrews shouted to the men in the cab:"Where''s the passenger train that is on the schedule?"
26892At last he said, trying to smile, yet only succeeding in looking hypocritical:"You ai n''t going to leave us this time of night, are you?
26892But I suppose you want to see more of the war?"
26892But how are we to steal a train?
26892But what of that?
26892But what was it that the sharp eyes of George detected?
26892But where''s George?
26892CHAPTER VII ENERGETIC PURSUIT Who were pursuing the Northern adventurers, and how did they learn the story of the stolen engine?
26892Cincinnati, Ohio?"
26892Could he keep his grasp on the animal?
26892Could you manage to get word to them without attracting suspicion?"
26892D''ye want to end up as food for fishes?"
26892Did you have a hard time reaching here?"
26892Did you notice on your way down that the railroad sidings between Chattanooga and Marietta were filled with freight cars?
26892Do n''t you hear our enemies?"
26892Do n''t you know your friend, Walter Jenks?"
26892Do you hear anything?"
26892Eh, George?"
26892George looked about him, when he had finished his supper, and asked himself why he could not have a week of such quiet, peaceful life as this?
26892Have you heard about the big engine steal?"
26892How did you both get so bare of clothes?"
26892How did you contrive to persuade the General?"
26892How long, some of his friends ask anxiously, will he be able to continue in so perilous an enterprise?
26892I know, as well as you, that there''s a big encampment at Big Shanty, but what of it?
26892I was born and bred in Kentucky, and there''s no state like it-- now is there?"
26892I wonder what''s the matter?
26892In your pocket, eh?"
26892Is n''t he with you?"
26892It would never do to leave this battery behind in the office; but how could he take it away without being caught in the act?
26892Or had this fellow heard of the excitement at the Peyton mansion?
26892Page say the Major was a Virginian?
26892President?"
26892Shall I let them in?"
26892Should the former try the experiment?
26892Some one after us again?"
26892Then coming to George, he said:"Look here, my boy, how are you on climbing?"
26892Then, turning to Watson, he asked:"How does my plan, as now arranged, impress you, Watson?"
26892Waggie, how are you, old man?"
26892Was he about to faint again?
26892Was he dead or was he still living, perhaps in some prison?
26892Was he to begin now?
26892Was it prudent to play the blind man once again?
26892Was the look that passed quickly across his face one of surprise or disappointment?
26892Was there an engine in pursuit?
26892Watson was about to reply when an attractive voice, with the soft accent so characteristic of the Southerners, called:"What is it, Ethiopia?
26892We are each secretly armed with pistols, are we not?
26892Were they merely running on in an aimless way?
26892What are fifty freight trains compared to powder for the troops?"
26892What do you think of it?"
26892What had been happening during the half hour which George had devoted to a nap?
26892What is the nearest town to the places you live in?"
26892What meant all the wood in the world without a good supply of water?
26892What part of it do you live in?"
26892What part of the county do you come from?"
26892What was camp life compared to the delight of such an adventure?
26892What were the feelings of Watson, and Jenks, and Macgreggor as they saw George leave the car, and the train rattled away?
26892What''s the use to me of money, if we all get drowned crossing over?"
26892What''s your county?"
26892When it had been disposed of, and the servants had left the dining- room, George said, almost under his breath:"Had n''t we better be off?
26892When the recital was over the President asked:"Do you know that poor General Mitchell has died from yellow fever?"
26892When they reached the gate of the little garden in front of the place George asked:"What story are we to tell?"
26892Where had the two Northerners heard that name?
26892Where was his father?
26892Where were Watson and George during this escapade?
26892Where''s Uncle Daniel?"
26892Where''s your dog?
26892Who is Andrews, and who is George Knight?
26892Why did I try to drag him across the river?"
26892Why do n''t you go serve your country, as other young men are doing, instead of idling around at a safe distance from the bullets?"
26892Why do n''t you join the army, and sing to the soldiers?"
26892Why had the farmer regarded him and his two companions with such a suspicious glance?
26892Why should I shield you?"
26892Why this sudden reticence on their part?
26892Would they remain free men, or would they fall into the hands of their pursuers, with all the consequences that such a capture implied?
26892You can sing negro songs, ca n''t you?"
26892You do n''t think I would be fool enough to see you fellows walking away without making a trial to get you back?"
26892exclaimed the person next to him, in a tone of boyish surprise;"how can you talk like that?
26892he muttered;"my young infant wants me to mind my own business, eh?"
26892laughed one of the passengers, a gouty- looking old gentleman;"do those fellows expect to beat an engine that way?"
17677A good guess, I think, Dick,said Warner,"but is n''t it beautiful at such a time and such a place?
17677A little section of heaven?
17677A woman at such a time? 17677 About three hundred yards away, do n''t you think?"
17677And Sergeant Whitley, too? 17677 And Slade and Skelly, what of them?"
17677And our people, colonel, where are all of them?
17677And what have they on their left?
17677And what''s that?
17677And where is Sam Jarvis?
17677And you have something to tell?
17677And you sleep, too, sir, do you not?
17677Are n''t they two of the greatest men you''ve ever known?
17677Are you sure that he has n''t thought of it first?
17677But do n''t you like the looks of this camp, boys? 17677 But he was all right?
17677But how are they to climb on the smooth ice?
17677But how do you know it was only a half hour or less ago?
17677But suppose it rained, Arthur?
17677But what have we to be afraid of?
17677Can I ask, sir, which way we ride?
17677Can it be possible that young gentlemen are discussing poetry between battles and with the enemy in sight?
17677Can we ask again,said Harry, when they had finished,"what you fellows were saying?"
17677Colonel, would you mind lendin''me them glasses uv yourn fur a look? 17677 Dick,"said Warner,"what hurts have you sustained in the past week?"
17677Did Colonel Winchester tell you why we were going to ride?
17677Did n''t I tell you, Dick, not to argue with him?
17677Did n''t your algebra give you any hint of it?
17677Did you hear anything of the Invincibles when you were in Petersburg?
17677Did you hear it?
17677Did you know well all the men who came to help in the preparations for us?
17677Did you see anything?
17677Did you see?
17677Do n''t I know it?
17677Do n''t you know that such voices as yours raised in loud tones would scare away the boldest fish that ever swam?
17677Do you know how many men these brigands have?
17677Do you know just where we''re going, and where we expect to find this Little Phil of yours?
17677Do you know that, too?
17677Do you know these Confederate troops?
17677Do you know what''s to be our next duty?
17677Do you know where my cousin, Harry Kenton, is?
17677Do you think they''ll have a big force at the river?
17677Do you think this is really a warning?
17677Do you think we''ll go through to Staunton?
17677Do you think we''ll have to draw off?
17677For how many men do you need them?
17677For what?
17677Foresight? 17677 Has anybody seen that fellow Slade again?"
17677Have I denied?
17677Have n''t I been learning it every day for three years?
17677Have we much more riding?
17677Have you any idea where the guerrillas are camped now?
17677Have you any objection, sir, to my taking a census?
17677Have you by any chance seen or heard of my cousin, Harry Kenton, who is a lieutenant on the staff of the Southern commander- in- chief?
17677How far are we going?
17677How long will it take us to reach Burton''s Cove?
17677How long?
17677How?
17677I''m what, sir? 17677 If you want''em so badly, Dick,"said Warner,"why do n''t you climb the tree and get''em?
17677Is it a band of the Johnnies?
17677Is it really he?
17677Is n''t he the big- word man?
17677Is the deadlock there broken?
17677Madame,he repeated,"where is the rifle?
17677Madame,he said, and now his tone was as fierce as hers had ever been,"where is the rifle?"
17677May I take Lieutenant Warner and Lieutenant Pennington with me? 17677 Maybe a farmer going home?"
17677No, Warner, but what kind of a census do you mean?
17677No, but where is the rifle?
17677Now that the war is over we''ll have a chance to finish our game, eh, Hector?
17677Now, Mr. Reed, do you think we can find anybody on this road who will tell us where the band has gone?
17677Now, then, what about yourself, George?
17677Perhaps you have sons here in this house?
17677See this rifle uv mine? 17677 Shall we go on?"
17677Shall we rise and run again?
17677So I was, but how did you know it?
17677So you regard the war as won?
17677So, you mean to give up your trade?
17677Someone you know, sir?
17677Strange, is n''t it?
17677Tell it over, George,he said,"was it Richmond you were speaking of, and did you say that it was taken?"
17677Tell us a bit of it, ca n''t you?
17677That long, sir?
17677Then shall we?
17677Therefore General Early will attack on the left?
17677Too early for us or too early for the Johnnies?
17677Well, Dick,said Harry,"we did n''t think to meet again in this way, did we?"
17677Were they made by a whistle?
17677What are they trading?
17677What are you driving at, you chattering Green Mountaineer?
17677What are you going to do with us?
17677What are you thinking about, Harry?
17677What did you see at the house, Dick?
17677What do we hear from Petersburg?
17677What do you mean about the Southern hunger helping us?
17677What do you mean, colonel?
17677What do you mean?
17677What do you mean?
17677What do you mean?
17677What has become of Colonel Winchester, sir?
17677What is it, Dick?
17677What is it, sergeant?
17677What is it?
17677What is it?
17677What is it?
17677What is this new movement that I''ve heard two or three men speak of? 17677 What makes you think so?"
17677What more do you see, Brother Richard?
17677What time is it?
17677What troops are these?
17677What was it?
17677What was that?
17677What will Massachusetts say to that? 17677 What''s dithyrambic?"
17677What''s his name?
17677What''s the lay of the land at the point of meeting?
17677What''s the news?
17677What''s the use? 17677 What''s this I see?"
17677What''s this? 17677 What''s this?"
17677What, so early?
17677What?
17677Where are they?
17677Where did you leave your horse?
17677Where is your husband?
17677Which column do you think will reach the junction first?
17677Which way do you- all''low to be goin''tomorrow?
17677Who are they?
17677Who can doubt it, Leonidas? 17677 Who is expecting us?"
17677Who is who?
17677Who''s an optimist now?
17677Who''s dithyrambic now? 17677 Whose dawn?"
17677Why ca n''t you let me put on an extra twenty- five hundred or three thousand pounds for the sake of effect?
17677Why do n''t you fellows give up and go home?
17677Why do we do such things?
17677Why do we waste so many lives in such vain efforts?
17677Why do you wait?
17677Why not?
17677Why?
17677Will you mind letting me lead the way for a little while, sir?
17677Will you tell me, Captain St. Clair,said Dick,"what has become of the two colonels of your regiment, which I believe you call the Invincibles?"
17677Would you let me take a look at him through your glasses?
17677Yes, but how did you know?
17677You agree then with Mr. Shepard that these signals are made by Slade and Skelly''s men?
17677You agree with me that the tracks have just been made?
17677You spoke of our being holed up, Mr. Reed, what did you mean by it?
17677You will give it to me?
17677You''re not serious, Lieutenant Mason?
17677And then what?
17677And you, Dick, have you already chosen the throne on which you''re going to sit?"
17677But are n''t you going in again?"
17677But could Early with his small numbers, with the habit now of defeat, make any impression upon the large Union armies flushed with victories?
17677But from what state do you come?"
17677But my eye ai n''t ez good ez your glasses, an''would you min''takin''a look through''em?
17677But there''s no danger of an ambush here?"
17677But what about you, Dick?"
17677But when they were riding away, he said:"And so that was it?"
17677By the way, what has become of that little algebra book of yours?"
17677Dick, can you tell handwriting when it''s done with a knife?"
17677Dick, do you realize it?
17677Dick, do you think I''m facing now in the exact direction of Vermont?"
17677Dick, you rascal, what''s that you have under your arm?"
17677Did n''t I say that you were a liar, a convicted liar from modesty?"
17677Did n''t I tell you so?
17677Do n''t you think so, gentlemen?"
17677Do you know, I have n''t been fishing in more than three years, and me not yet of age?"
17677Do you think it was intended as a signal?"
17677Do you understand that we have captured the city over which we have fought for four years, and which has cost more than a half million lives?"
17677Hark, did you hear that noise?"
17677Hark, what was that?"
17677Harry, do you think I''ve eaten too much?
17677Harry, is this a high mountain?"
17677Have you fellows fruit enough?"
17677Have you heard anything of those two robbers and murderers, Slade and Skelly?"
17677Have you heard from your father?"
17677He escaped unhurt from the Valley?"
17677He propped himself upon his elbow and said:"George, does your little algebra tell you anything about the meaning of this victory?"
17677Hector, you read the message, do you not?"
17677How did you manage to learn it so thoroughly?"
17677How do they feel there with our army only about twenty miles away?"
17677How do you account for that, sir?"
17677How long will it be before the snow comes?"
17677I said to Strother on the other peak:''Six thousand?''
17677I said:''In center or on their right flank?''
17677I said:''Two thousand fresh horses?''
17677In the early part of the war Skelly called himself a Unionist, did he not?"
17677Is it not so, John?"
17677Is it real?"
17677Is n''t it fine?
17677Is n''t that too large an allowance?"
17677Is n''t this new general of ours overdoing it?"
17677Is that farm house over there still empty?"
17677It is bacon, is n''t it?
17677Jones?"
17677Jones?"
17677Just listen to it, will you?"
17677Mason?"
17677Mason?"
17677Mason?"
17677Might not the kindly fog, encircling them with its protection, be a good omen?
17677Now he''s gone, ai n''t he, colonel?"
17677Now, Pennington, how about you?"
17677Now, do we sigh for all those blessings we''ve left behind us?"
17677Now, what is that on the high hill to the south?"
17677Now, what would you like to have, George?"
17677Reed?"
17677Seest aught more, Brother Richard?"
17677Shepard was silent and then Dick added passionately:"Why does n''t the South give up?
17677Shepard?"
17677Shepard?"
17677Shepard?"
17677Shepard?"
17677Shepard?"
17677Shepard?"
17677Tell me, is it true that we evacuate Petersburg tonight?"
17677That is, this force might climb the slopes behind them, and attack from above?"
17677The spy drew his horse to a halt directly in front of him and saluted:"Lieutenant Mason, sir?"
17677Then he turned to a man with very broad shoulders and asked:"How are the new lads coming on?"
17677Was fortune going to prove unkind to the good old rock- ribbed Green Mountain State?
17677What are all the soldiers going to do then?"
17677What awaited them at Pendleton?
17677What could be more delightful than an abstruse problem in algebra?
17677What do you know, you prairie- bred young ruffian, about fishing?
17677What do you say?"
17677What do you see, Dick?"
17677What do you think is ahead, boys?"
17677What else do you see from the apple tower, Brother Richard?"
17677What else do you see from the heights of the apple tree, Dick?"
17677What else do you see?"
17677What else now?
17677What is it, Harry?"
17677What will the end be?
17677What would become of them after the war?
17677What''s that about the French riding into the sunken road?
17677What''s this?"
17677What''s your plan, sergeant, if you have any?"
17677Which do you think it is?"
17677Which way is the wind blowing, Dick?"
17677Why blame me?"
17677Why did he have such luck, or rather lack of it?
17677Why is that light flaring so high on Fisher''s Hill?"
17677Why should he regard the forest with a hostile eye?
17677Why should n''t I be curious about Richmond, a place that great armies have been trying to take for three years?
17677Why should you at such a moment?
17677Will all of you remain perfectly still?"
17677Will you also use your romantic science of mathematics in fishing?
17677Will you wait a moment?"
17677Would n''t you say, sir, that was a Johnny on his horse up there?"
17677Would that duel between them be renewed?
17677You did n''t find your cousin among the prisoners?"
17677You do n''t expect me to carry it for you any longer do you?
17677You were ambushed, were you not?"
17677You''ve been doing business with the army?"
17677said Pennington,"or is it some of the fellows playing tricks on us?"
17677said Warner,"but why do we utter cries of woe, Frank?"
43012Oh, shame, where is thy blush?
43012Suffers from?
43012What then? 43012 What was their operation?
43012--to the palsied,"Run you this errand,"--to the sick in bed,"Arise, and write a book?"
43012And how?
43012But in his essay on the works of Walter Savage Landor, is he not a little too inflated, and does he not run his ironical style into the ground?
43012But what eater of opium, after taking much of the drug the day previous, ever arose in the morning without feeling unutterably miserable?
43012Did any one ever before hear such an insane compound of contradictions?
43012How can he write in this condition?
43012I fear the reader would fain cry out,"What, in the name of Judas Iscariot, is the man after, and when is he going to catch up to it?
43012In sober practice, would you say to the blind,"Copy this writing?"
43012The outward effects and injurious properties of the drug soon made themselves manifest: what was I to do?
43012Try what repentance can: what can it not?
43012We quote as follows:"You know the Paradise Lost?
43012What madman would not have known he was injuring his friend by hauling into notice and retailing such stuff as this?
43012What rests?
43012What three things does opium especially provoke?
43012What would you call this, unless reaction?
43012Will alcohol become unpopular, then be abhorred, and then opium be substituted in its stead?
43012Will it?
43012Would you compare the fettered African with the roving Arabian?--the bond to the free?
43012Would you do this?
43012Would you expect grapes from a hyperborean iceberg?--figs from the Sahara?--palms from Siberia?
43012Yes, and who blamed him for lacking energy?
43012Yet what can it, when one can not repent?
43012Yet why traverse again step by step this sad pilgrimage; the reader has read similar experiences; then why trouble him with mine?
43012who or what is equal to it?
43629:45 p.m."LIEUTENANT- GENERAL GRANT:"Would it not be well for Warren to go down with his whole corps and smash up the force in front of Sheridan?
4362As I drew up by the party, Bismarck accosted me with,"Well, General, are n''t you hungry?
4362At this General Grant remarked:"Did he say so?
4362Could not your cavalry go back by the way of Stony Creek depot and destroy or capture the store of supplies there?
4362Have any more troops arrived from Richmond, or are any more coming, or reported to be coming?
4362He remaining mounted, spoke first to me, saying simply,"How are you, Sheridan?"
4362I assured him with thanks that I was"first- rate,"when, pointing toward the village, he asked,"Is General Lee up there?"
4362I presume that some one said to the Governor about this time,"Why do n''t you get Sheridan?"
4362Offering the flask to his uncle, he said:"You''ve had a hard day of it; wo n''t you refresh yourself?"
4362This feature was more than acceptable to the parents at times, for how else could they so thoroughly learn all the neighborhood gossip?
4362Where are you?"
36720''But why?'' 36720 ''Not invited?
36720''The harem? 36720 And the rest of you gentlemen sided with the North?"
36720Are you a man responsible for his words?
36720Are you ready to apologize to me?
36720But really, how many?
36720But what can one do in such a case?
36720But what sense is there in men dressing in that way? 36720 But why do you ask?"
36720Comfortable?
36720Do they?
36720Do you mean that-- seriously?
36720How many Society friends have you, Miss Browneyes?
36720I hear, Mr. Miller,I said,"that you are my compatriot-- that you are a Hoosier by birth, as I am-- is it true?"
36720If I want to go to Indianapolis, what road do I take?
36720If I want to go to Madison?
36720Is it signed?
36720Is n''t it?
36720It''s stuff and nonsense,I interposed,"but what yarns did they tell?"
36720Lies? 36720 No, did I?
36720On terms?
36720Quite a new attitude of mind to you, is n''t it, Doctor? 36720 Say,"he broke out, interrupting some formal question of mine,"Say, do you know anything in fact?
36720Still again what harm would have been done if he had succeeded in selling the article? 36720 Suppose your book were published, how many of your Society friends could you confidently reckon upon as probable purchasers?
36720The American publishers of your father''s poem,he said,"have paid him all they could afford to pay in the present state of the law, I believe?"
36720Then what were you doing there?
36720To what book do you refer?
36720Well, what do you think? 36720 What about their literary quality?"
36720What am I to do with that?
36720What battery is that over there?
36720What did you say to him by way of reply?
36720What do you think of servants?
36720What is its theme? 36720 What is the Federal work that lies in front of it?"
36720What was it?
36720What was your special objection to me?
36720What? 36720 Whence comes the color of the rose or the violet or the dandelion?
36720Whence comes the inspiration?
36720Why not submit the question to Mr. Bryant himself?
36720Why, Mr. Briggs,I protested,"it was only a paragraph----""What of that?"
36720Why, sir, do you presume to tell me what is and what is n''t in an article that I''ve read for myself? 36720 Why, what do you call these chairs if they are not comfortable?
36720Would you mind reciting to me so much of it as you''ve written? 36720 Yes,"I answered in astonishment,"but how do you happen to know anything about it?"
36720Yes-- but what is it? 36720 You are thinking of''Elsie Venner''?"
36720You think human liberty is involved?
36720You''ve found it so since, have n''t you?
36720''With a pit- cher of but- termilk un- der her arm''--don''t it sing?
36720Almost forgetting to say"good- morning,"he eagerly asked:"Are you sure of your facts in that Amour story-- can they be proved?"
36720And how much of it have you written?"
36720And now that I have read the reminiscences in print, why am I unable to recall the fact that I wrote them?
36720Are we helplessly provincial or hopelessly snobbish?
36720Are we, after all, provincial?
36720Are you a rainbow chaser?"
36720Are you entirely certain that the manuscript was mine?"
36720Are you going to write on this affair in the Senate, or shall I take it up?"
36720As the evening of the dinner day approached, I asked my host:''When shall we dress for the dinner?''
36720As they turned their backs on the humorist and moved away, the Bishop asked:"What did you say the name of that mountebank is?"
36720At last the man asked in despair:"Well now, stranger, suppose I wanted to go to Hell?"
36720At that point he grasped my hand warmly and said:"Tell me, how is Joe?
36720Booth?"
36720Bryant?"
36720But as a people, have we outgrown our provincialism?
36720But could he learn it within six months?
36720But did you ever hear an English_ grande dame_ crush the life out of a sweet and innocent young girl by calling her''that young person''?
36720But is it gain?
36720But is the world richer or poorer for the change?
36720But what should it be about?
36720By the way, did you ever hear that I once committed arson?"
36720Do n''t you see how it sort o''sings?
36720Do you know Arithmetic an''Algebra an''Geometry and can you really teach me?
36720Do you know that is the worst tomfoolery this idiotic world ever gave birth to?
36720Harper?"
36720Have we achieved our intellectual independence?
36720Have we learned to value our own judgments, our own thinking, our own convictions independently of English approval or disapproval?
36720Have we not yet achieved our intellectual and social independence?
36720He was a genuine poet-- as who can doubt who has read him?
36720His creative ability failing him, what can he do but use his critical ability in its stead?
36720How are you?
36720How long would a bookkeeper in a bank hold his place after making a similar blunder?
36720How was that?"
36720I observed the stress he laid upon the word''you''and asked:''Is n''t it time for you, also?''
36720I think Mr. Eggleston and Mr. McCabe were in active service on the Southern side during the war?"
36720If Fitz Lee had been educated at Yale or Harvard, what place would he have occupied in the world?
36720In its first month?
36720In reply he said:"Lent him money?
36720Is n''t that about the way the mysticists make up their''facts''for the misleading of half- baked brains?"
36720Louis?"
36720Of that book?
36720Or is it that our English literary visitors make more skilful use of the press agent''s peculiar gifts?
36720Or is it, perhaps, that we are more generous and hospitable than the English?
36720Presently he asked:"Did n''t you command a mortar fort at Petersburg?"
36720Quoth Charles:''Old Hetman, wherefore so, Since thou hast learned the art so well?''"
36720Still cool, self- possessed, and sarcastic, Tilton asked:"Do I correctly understand you to mean, Dr. Fulton, that you shrink from sensationalism?"
36720Suddenly he interrupted in his impetuous way, asking:"Are you the man I took on my crupper that day down there by Dranesville?"
36720That''s tautological, of course, for prejudice is always ill- informed, is n''t it?
36720Then a moment later he asked:"Did you ever read one of them?"
36720Then adopting something of his own manner I asked:"What is it you want me to do, Charley?
36720Was that a bit of theatrical"business"?
36720What chance has an American novel, published at a dollar or more, in competition with English fiction even of an inferior sort published at ten cents?
36720What could I do?
36720What is more reasonable, then, than that he should select marketable things that other people have written and sell them?
36720What should be its plot and who its personages?
36720What''s in a Name?
36720What''s the use of drudging when a fellow has got it in him to write poetry like that?
36720What''s your guess?"
36720When I scourged myself for neglecting the task, why did n''t my memory remind me that I had actually discharged the duty?
36720Where should its scene be laid?
36720Why bother, then, to make a journey for the settlement of a matter of business which could wait as well as not for next court day to come round?
36720Why should anybody who invites us both to dinner, expect that we shall wear the same sort of clothes?
36720Why should n''t we have a"Watch Night"after our own fashion?
36720Why, otherwise, were the German speaking people of Pennsylvania and the mountain regions south universally known as"Pennsylvania Dutch?"
36720Why, what can you mean?''
36720Will you come?"
36720Would even Mr. Howells be made to feel that he was appreciated there as much as many far inferior English writers have been in New York?
36720Would he have become a Virginian lawyer and perhaps a judge?
36720Would n''t I, for a consideration, secure the acceptance of her novel by some reputable house?
36720XVIII[ Sidenote: What''s in a Name?]
36720You remember Thackeray''s Roundabout paper with that headline?
36720You were a Federal officer, were you not?"
36720[ Sidenote: A Challenge to the Ghosts]"Did he have the same experience the rest had had?"
36720or are you just pretending, like the rest?"
36720or what else?
44124If any earthly pride be justifiable, are not the sons of Guilford entitled to entertain it? 44124 What can we not endure, When pains are lessened by the hope of cure?"
44124And who could more appropriately present this banner than your majesty and her fair subjects?
44124As the cars moved off, Jim gave him a quizzical lookout of his left eye, smiled, and faintly whispered"stationed?"
44124Being of an inquisitive nature, and seeking information, he had the rashness to address Jim Pearce, and inquire of him:"_ Whose command?
44124On the 4th day of July, 1776, the National Declaration, adopting(?)
44124Shall the living have less?
44124Should we thus prostrate ourselves to invite the scorn and contempt which even our enemies would have the right to bestow upon us?
44124TATE, ROBERT B.--Enlisted June 11, 1861; wounded at Wilderness May 5, 1864; died of wounds June(?
44124We did our best to make ourselves perfect in the drill and manual-- for would not all eyes be upon us?
44124_ Shall we now recant?_ Shall we now solemnly declare that we did not believe what we professed to fight for?
44124_ Shall we now recant?_ Shall we now solemnly declare that we did not believe what we professed to fight for?
45067My brothers, my kinsmen, oh, where have they fled?
45067What tho''the base cohorts of treason are routed? 45067 What tho''the false claims of disunion are scouted?
38497''I am to die then; and-- how long?'' 38497 And pray, madam, where are the boys?"
38497Do n''t know but I may; can you cook?
38497How did it appear?
38497How is that?
38497How much do you think you can earn a month?
38497Then you saw the treatment which I received, and heard the abusive language which Doctor E. made use of on that occasion?
38497Well, my boy, how much work can you do in a day?
38497What the---- does he want of a darkie wig?
38497What whiskey does he drink?
38497What whiskey?
38497Why are you sorry, Colonel? 38497 A little later he was asked,What is the foundation of your hope of Heaven?"
38497And do they hate us?
38497And have the lips of a sister fair Been baptized in their waves of light?
38497And is this hope vain?
38497And now, what shall I say in conclusion?
38497And, through this bloody baptism, shall not our nation be purified at length, and fitted to act a nobler part in the world''s history?"
38497Another question is frequently asked me--"Are not the private soldiers cruelly treated by the officers?"
38497As soon as I was seated she inquired:"To what fortunate circumstance am I to attribute the pleasure of this unexpected call?"
38497But how or where was it to be found?
38497But how was I to make biscuit with my colored hands?
38497But the great question to be decided, was, what can I do?
38497But was I capable of filling it with honor to myself and advantage to the Federal Government?
38497But what woman''s heart could resist the pleading of a mother at such a moment?
38497But where was the chaplain?
38497But why should blue eyes and golden hair be the distinction between bond and free?"
38497Col. R. demanded, in a very stern voice,"Jack, where did you get that beef steak and those chickens?"
38497Could he make any suggestion, or throw the least ray of light upon the subject, which might lead to the whereabouts of the general?
38497Could he tell me when he was expected at headquarters?
38497Could it be that she was meditating the best mode of attack, or was she expecting some one to come, and trying to detain me until their arrival?
38497Did he know of any place where the necessary information could be obtained?
38497Do my friends wish to know how I felt in such a position and in such a costume?
38497Had she been killed or wounded?
38497He then asked:"Can you go direct to that house, and show my men where Allen''s body is?"
38497How shall we cause them to assimilate to us?
38497How shall we ever make them good and useful citizens?
38497I believed it was a christian duty to stand in the foremost of the fight, and why should I be afraid?"
38497I have often been asked:"Have you ever been on a battle- field before the dead and wounded were removed?"
38497I knelt beside him and asked:"What can I do for you, my friend?"
38497I see it now, with its white lips and beseeching eyes; and then the touching inquiry,"Do you think I''ll die before morning?"
38497I told him I thought he would, and asked:"Has death any terrors for you?"
38497I turned to him, and asked:"How is it with you?
38497If fate unite the faithful but to part, Why is their memory sacred to the heart?
38497If they are in carriages, their vehicles are sure to get smashed, and then the trouble arises, what are they to do with their baggage?
38497Is it Bourbon or Monongahela?"
38497Is this affection, so deep, so holy, yearning over its object with undying love, to be nipped in the very bud of its being?
38497Is your peace made with God?"
38497Looking a little startled he exclaimed--"Am I really dying?"
38497May I run and fotch it?"
38497One man asked a surgeon, who had just performed an operation on one of his arms,"Doctor, is there no alternative-- must I be taken prisoner?"
38497One of the men said"See here old woman, are you sure that she can tell us if we find her?"
38497One of the men, desirous of changing the conversation, said:"Uncle, are you blind?"

38855How can ye dwell with devouring fire?
38855How happens it that you look at matters in a different light from your relatives?"
38855How long shall the wicked triumph?
38855I often thought of the couplet in the old song--"The hounds are baying on my track, Christian, will you send me back?"

38855In the first place, did you ever say that you did not believe that God ordained the institution of slavery?"
38855My proof is in Philemon, verses 15 and 16, where the apostle asks that Onesimus be received, not as a servant, but as a brother beloved?"

40046Aunty, are there any white folks close around here?
40046Do you really want me to do that?
40046Do you take me for a fool?

40046Have you got any corn for my horse?
40046Have you seen any Yanks?
40046Hold on, there,said one of my comrades,"do you want to kill yourself?
40046How many are there of you?
40046I suppose your master is a Union man, is n''t he?

40046It do n''t make any difference who I am,said I;"but, Aunty, can I get anything to eat?"
40046Now, is dat so? 40046 Oh, you are the guards?"
40046Oh,said she,"what''s dat?"
40046So they have had you in irons four days?
40046Then there are no soldiers that come here?
40046Well, aunty,said I,"can I stay here to- night?"
40046Well, did you see any of the Johnnies on your trip from Batesville down?
40046Well, uncle,said I,"what do you think of me?"
40046Well, what about your Colonel?
40046What are you doing that for?
40046What is your name?
40046What will pa say when General Curtis comes along and wants to know what has become of the guards he sent?

40046Why, what is the matter?
40046You has? 40046 You have n''t?
40046''John, what have you got in your sack?''
40046After he had read the contents, he looked me over from head to foot and finally asked,"What regiment do you belong to?"
40046Ah, would this thing never end, or was I doomed to die in rebel hands?
40046Are you?"
40046As we were passing she called out:"Is that what you Yankees call skedaddling?"
40046Could it be possible that I was to get back to see my kind old mother, and my wife and little ones who had mourned for me as dead?
40046Dead?
40046Do n''t you like coffee?"
40046Do n''t you see how the cane is parted where they waded or swam over?"
40046Do n''t you think it is some one chopping?"
40046Do you call yourself a gentleman and stand and see your dogs tear a man to pieces?
40046Do you know when your men are to pass here?"
40046Does ye heah?"
40046Finally he broke out and said:"Now, look here, stranger, do you think you are going to sit there and bulldoze me all night and make me sit here?"
40046Fo''de Lord''s sake; what will become of dis pore niggah?
40046He soon got through with his writing, folded it up, put it in a large envelope and handed it to me, saying,"Sergeant, have you a good horse?"
40046How was it our government left us there to die?
40046I remember on one of our foraging trips we came up to a very nice farm house, and an old lady came out and said,"Are you''ns Yankees?
40046Is dat you?
40046Is de Yanks got loose?"
40046Is you a Yank?"
40046Is you afraid of the white people?"
40046Now just look over the coach of young soldiers in the first flush of manhood; can they all get back to their homes?
40046Now the road is infested with rebels; are you willing to undertake it?"
40046Now, my dear, ca n''t we study up some plan to get away with these Yanks?"
40046Old Aunty goes to the door and said:"Wot''s de matter, massa?"
40046Old aunty walked up to him, snatched the possum out of his hand, gave him a smart box on the ear and said:"Ai n''t you got no manners?
40046Said I,"Mister, supposing they are confederates, what are we to do?"
40046Said I:"Boys, do you think there is any chance for getting anything to eat up there?
40046Said Jim,"Look here, sis, have you any sweet potatoes, butter, chickens, or anything good to eat?
40046Said he:"Master, are you a Union soldier?"
40046Seeing an old lady standing close by the road I spoke to her and said:"Aunty, what do you think of us, anyway?"
40046Seen any Yanks pass this way?"
40046She looked up at him and seeing he was in dead earnest said:"When would you want me to go?"
40046Some of the men in the heat and intensity of their feelings exclaimed,''Is this hell?''
40046The Johnnie called over,"Are you hit, Yank?"
40046The little fellow put on his suit of gray, and Mrs. Wirz said,"How do you like your clothes?"
40046The old man looked at us and said:"Do you call yourselves gentlemen and force yourselves upon us?"
40046The old man raised up and said:"How do you do, sir; will you sit down on this bench?"
40046The same young lady was sitting where he last saw her, and he walked up to her, made a very polite bow and said,"How do you do, sis?"
40046Then the old gentleman looked around and saw the pigs in a line around the fire and said:"Hello, what have you here, sergeant?"
40046They would say,"Why did you not go and dig up that money?"
40046Was this some horrible dream, or was it real?
40046What brought you out here?"
40046What girl could resist such pleading from such a handsome young fellow as our Jim?
40046What is we to do?"
40046What of that?"
40046What''s the matter, honey?
40046Who is yous?"
40046Wirz said,"What are you doing here?"
40046You niggah, does you hear?
40046has you got store coffee?"
40046how can we forget it, comrades?
40046said Jake;"who is you?"
40046what is that?
40046where did you get your corn?''
40046who comes there?"
42892But are you never afraid?
42892Did they shoot at you?
42892Did you give that Jew back his money?
42892Do n''t you hear the cannon over there?
42892General,I said,"did you ask the Secretary to let me go back with you?"
42892I understand, of course,said he,"that you are not saying this on your own authority?"
42892Mr. Dana,asked Colonel Wilder,"what is the situation?"
42892There is James E. English, of Connecticut; I think he is sure, is n''t he?
42892Well, as the President is not here, will you sign the warrant?
42892Well, sir,said I,"what shall I say to these gentlemen?"
42892Well, what says he?
42892What does Stanton say?
42892What in the world is that?
42892What is it? 42892 What shall I do?"
42892What will they be likely to want?
42892Will you give me any orders?
42892Will you go?
42892A little girl of mine said,"Papa, could n''t you take me over to see that?"
42892Ca n''t you send to Indianapolis and catch that fool and have him sent to me to work on the forts?
42892Can any one contend that it ought to be restored to its claimants without charge for the new ties and iron?
42892DEAREST HUSBAND: Why do you not come home?
42892Do you know whether the President will be back before morning?"
42892General Rosecrans, to the proposition to strengthen the left, made always the same reply,"Where are we going to take it from?"
42892Have you forgotten your wife and child?
42892How is he?"
42892How soon can you start?"
42892I asked;"what are the orders?"
42892If we look through the record of great men, where is there one to be placed beside him?
42892Nasby?"
42892Now who would stand in the way of one so kindly and charitably disposed?
42892President?"
42892So it would have been at Cold Harbor if Grant had won, and who would have thought of the losses?
42892Tell me what is the reason?"
42892That morning he said to me at breakfast:"Mr. Dana, I am going to Satartia to- day; would you like to go along?"
42892The first time I saw Sheridan after the battle I said to him,"Why did you go up there?"
42892This letter was followed the next day by a telegram, saying:"Will you come here?
42892What are your orders?"
42892What has come over you?
42892What''s up?"
42892When I went to see him in his office, the first thing he said was:"Will you have a drink?"
42892When the congressman stated the case, I asked him,"Do you want that?"
42892Who can combine the elements of success on the battlefield?
42892Who can combine the elements of success on the battlefield?
42892Who can organize victory?
42892Who can organize victory?
42892Who ever thinks of or reads Everett''s Gettysburg speech now?
42892Why, then, should we give them up for nothing?
42892Will some one kill me?
43562Are you sure?
43562Brock, how about the violin?
43562Come back here, what are you doing?
43562Oh, no, madam, I guess they will not hurt your chickens?
43562Pat, what the divil are ye doing here? 43562 Say, Mamie,"wrote a comrade to his sister,"do you know that Dick actually kissed the last letter you sent him?
43562What did you- uns stand up like that for, and be shot down?
43562What is your age, sir?
43562What''s the matter Amos, are you hit?
43562Where will we find it?
43562Where''s Co. G? 43562 You would n''t hurt a child, would you?"
43562All over the South equally as good people prayed-- Thou knowest, oh Lord?
43562All through the North the good people were praying-- Lord, Thou knowest?
43562At the front Gen. Howard prayed-- Send us victory, oh Lord?
43562But the war went on-- for it was a holy war?
43562Did Gilmore or Foster ever wish to capture Charleston?
43562Did the War Department desire its capture?
43562Do n''t ye hear them fellers?"
43562Do you understand me?"
43562Had they not been on Folly Island?
43562Mein Gott, what for they kill all my men?
43562One bright lad remarked"If he is our father, who in Hamilton is our mother?"
43562Say, b''ys, do n''t yez want some water?"
43562Soon after, Col. Carmichael called to his men to cease firing, the rebels also ceased and a voice called,"What regiment is that?"
43562The boys of G felt well and indulged in much nonsense, similar to this--"When are you going to cut your wheat, Steve?"
43562The boys of the first division did all they could, but what could they do?
43562The idea was not a bad one if he felt that way, but what could he have found interesting behind the fence?
43562Was there anything praiseworthy in the acts of the men of Co. G on that dreadful day?
43562What a miserable trade is war?
43562What do you say, boys-- hey?"
43562What need had the regiment or the army for a preacher?
43562Where were those brave corporals?
43562Who shall be so bold as to deny that the buoyant hopes of Co. G did not lighten the vessel considerably?
43562Who was blamable?
43562Why did Fate thus trifle with your yearnings for fame?
43562Why not have a regimental lawyer?
43562Why not place the laurel crown right here?
43562Why should not Burnside''s men at Fredericksburg be remembered with equal pride?
2657That is so,one of them says; I wonder if he is a Kentuckian?
2657?, 1858 As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master.
2657Again, in its political aspect, does anything in any way endanger the perpetuity of this Union but that single thing, slavery?
2657And how much would it avail you, if you could, by the use of John Brown, Helper''s Book, and the like, break up the Republican organization?
2657And if I do my duty and do right, you will sustain me, will you not?
2657And if so treated and driven out, at what point of time would there ever be ten thousand?
2657And now, my friends, have I said enough?
2657And should any one in any case be content that his oath shall go unkept on a merely unsubstantial controversy as to how it shall be kept?
2657And then what about Carl Schurz; or, in other words, what about our German friends?
2657And where will it end?"
2657And why?
2657Are General Buell and yourself in concert?
2657Are you going to split the Ohio down through, and push your half off a piece?
2657Are you ready to get back the trade on those terms?
2657Are you strong enough-- are you strong enough even with my help-- to set your foot upon the necks of Sumner, Heintzelman, and Keyes all at once?
2657August?
2657But are not the people of the Territories detailed from the States?
2657But do I think so meanly of you as to suppose that that earnestness is about me personally?
2657But how?
2657But those who say they hate slavery, and are opposed to it, but yet act with the Democratic party-- where are they?
2657But what is the controlling of it"as other property"?
2657But what was to be done after that time?
2657But what, at last, is this proposition?
2657By the way, in what consists the special sacredness of a State?
2657Can aliens make treaties easier than friends can make laws?
2657Can any of you tell any reason why it should not have come into the Union at once?
2657Can anybody doubt the reason of the difference?
2657Can they exclude it then?
2657Can treaties be more faithfully enforced between aliens than laws can among friends?
2657Can we cast our votes with their view, and against our own?
2657Can we cast our votes with their view, and against our own?
2657Can you not elect him to the Legislature?
2657Can you not see me at Monticello on the 6th of September?
2657Can you point out the difference?
2657Can you, without much inconvenience, meet me at Chicago?
2657Could Washington himself speak, would he cast the blame of that sectionalism upon us, who sustain his policy, or upon you, who repudiate it?
2657Could Washington himself speak, would he cast the blame of that sectionalism upon us, who sustain his policy, or upon you, who repudiate it?
2657Could you not set up Lizzie and beat them all?
2657DEAR SIR:--How is this?
2657DEAR SIR:--What think you of sending ministers at once as follows: Dayton to England; Fremont to France; Clay to Spain; Corwin to Mexico?
2657December[?
2657Did Judge Douglas invent this?
2657Did any other thing ever cause a moment''s fear?
2657Did the angry debates which took place at Washington during the last season of Congress lead you to suppose that the slavery agitation was settled?
2657Did we notify them of this sage view of ours when we borrowed their money?
2657Did you not find your country free when you came to decide that Ohio should be a free State?
2657Do any of you know of one?
2657Do n''t foreign nations interfere with the slave trade?
2657Do n''t you see that they cut off competition?
2657Do the Republicans declare against the Union?
2657Do the commanders of corps disobey your orders in anything?
2657Do they not have their fugitive slaves returned now as ever?
2657Do you accept the challenge?
2657Do you accept the challenge?
2657Do you receive the answers?
2657Do you see anything to the contrary?
2657Do you, any of you, know one single Democrat that showed sorrow over that result?
2657Does not your plan involve a greatly larger expenditure of time and money than mine?
2657GENERAL BUELL: Have arms gone forward for East Tennessee?
2657Gentlemen, is that a true view of the case?
2657Have they not a position as citizens of this common country, and have we any power to change that position?
2657Have they not all their rights now as they ever have had?
2657Have they not the same Constitution that they have lived under for seventy- odd years?
2657Have you ever got in the way of consulting with McKinley in political matters?
2657Have you found it necessary to put any such provision in your law?
2657Have you received these messages?
2657He has never denounced Mr. Hickman: why?
2657How can this discrepancy of 23,000 be accounted for?
2657How many do you suppose there were?
2657I ask any honest Democrat if the small, the local, and the trivial and temporary question is not, Who shall be governor?
2657I do not think that this counting is constitutionally essential to the election, but how are we to proceed in the absence of it?
2657I want to know, now, when that thing takes place, what do you mean to do?
2657If any one comes that wants slavery, must they not say,"I do n''t care whether freedom or slavery be voted up or voted down"?
2657If the majority should not rule, who would be the judge?
2657If the two houses refuse to meet at all, or meet without a quorum of each, where shall we be?
2657If there is no difference between them, why not make the Territories States at once?
2657If they were not driven out, but remained there as trespassers upon the public land in violation of the law, can they establish slavery there?
2657If this feeling of indifference this absence of moral sense about the question prevails in the States, will it not be carried into the Territories?
2657In case of disaster, would not a retreat be more difficult by your plan than mine?
2657In establishing a basis of representation they say"all other persons,"when they mean to say slaves-- why did they not use the shortest phrase?
2657In fact, would it not be less valuable in this, that it would break no great line of the enemy''s communications, while mine would?
2657In our present differences is either party without faith of being in the right?
2657In the midst of a bombardment at Fort Donelson, why could not a gunboat run up and destroy the bridge at Clarksville?
2657In view of our moral, social, and political responsibilities, can we do this?
2657In view of our moral, social, and political responsibilities, can we do this?
2657In view of this, might it not be safest for us to cross the Occoquan at Coichester, rather than at the village of Occoquan?
2657Is anything to be done?
2657Is controlling it as other property the same thing as destroying it, or driving it away?
2657Is it just either that creditors shall go unpaid or the remaining States pay the whole?
2657Is it just that she shall leave and pay no part of this herself?
2657Is it just that she shall now be off without consent or without making any return?
2657Is it just that they shall go off without leave and without refunding?
2657Is it not adherence to the old and tried, against a new and untried?
2657Is it not adherence to the old and tried, against the new and untried?
2657Is it not the sacred right of the man who do n''t go there equally to buy slaves in Africa, if he wants them?
2657Is it possible, then, to make that intercourse more advantageous or more satisfactory after separation than before?
2657Is it true, then, that any right, plainly written in the Constitution, has been denied?
2657Is not that a falsehood?
2657Is not this change wrought in your minds a very important change?
2657Is there a Democrat here who does not deny that the Declaration applies to the negro?
2657Is there any better or equal hope in the world?
2657Is there anything else that you think wrong that you are not willing to deal with as wrong?
2657Is there one in Ohio but declares his firm belief that the Declaration of Independence did not mean negroes at all?
2657Is there such perfect identity of interests among the States to compose a new Union as to produce harmony only, and prevent renewed secession?
2657Is there, then, anything in the constitution or laws of Ohio against raising sugar- cane?
2657Is this quite just for creditors?
2657It forces us to ask: Is there in all republics this inherent and fatal weakness?
2657It is necessary for this squatter sovereignty, but is it true?
2657It simply leaves the inquiry: What was the understanding those fathers had of the question mentioned?
2657Kentucky is entirely covered with slavery; Ohio is entirely free from it: What made that difference?
2657Let us inquire what Judge Douglas really invented when he introduced the Nebraska Bill?
2657MEMORANDUM FOR A PLAN OF CAMPAIGN[ OCTOBER 1?]
2657MY DEAR SIR:--Assuming it to be possible to now provision Fort Sumter, under all the circumstances is it wise to attempt it?
2657MY DEAR SIR:--Why can not Colonel Small''s Philadelphia regiment be received?
2657May Congress prohibit slavery in the Territories?
2657Must Congress protect slavery in the Territories?
2657Must a government, of necessity, be too strong for the liberties of its own people, or too weak to maintain its own existence?
2657No?
2657Now we claim that we are the only true Union men, and we put to them this one proposition: Whatever endangers this Union, save and except slavery?
2657Now, I would like to know what is to be done with the nine thousand?
2657Now, my friends, can the country be saved upon that basis?
2657Now, tell me, is this not mere impatience?
2657Now, what is judge Douglas''s popular sovereignty?
2657Of what tendency is that change?
2657One party to a contract may violate it-- break it, so to speak; but does it not require all to lawfully rescind it?
2657Or are you going to keep it right alongside of us outrageous fellows?
2657Or shall I decide for myself?
2657Pray what was it that made you free?
2657SPRINGFIELD, May 17?
2657SUPPORT OF THE FUGITIVE SLAVE CLAUSE MEMORANDUM December[ 22?
2657Shall fugitives from labor be surrendered by national or by State authority?
2657Shall this class of legislation just now beginning with us be general or special?
2657Shall we put the card through, and arrange the rest afterward?
2657So they may-- so may individuals; and which-- the Legislature or the courts-- is best suited to try the question of fraud in either case?
2657Suppose the enemy in force shall dispute the crossing of the Occoquan, what?
2657Suppose the enemy should attack us in force before we reach the Occoquan, what?
2657The dissenter laid a guinea over the word and asked,"Do you see it now?"
2657The fact is substantially true; but does it prove the issue?
2657The fact is substantially true; but does it prove the issue?
2657The only dispute on both sides is,"What are their rights?"
2657The question recurs, what will satisfy them?
2657The question recurs, what will satisfy them?
2657The questions are sometimes asked"What is all this fuss that is being made about negroes?
2657Then he showed him a single word--"Can you see that?"
2657Then what was it that the"Little Giant"invented?
2657These natural and apparently adequate means all failing, what will convince them?
2657These natural and apparently adequate means all failing, what will convince them?
2657This is a practical and very serious question to you?
2657To state the question more directly, are all the laws but one to go unexecuted, and the government itself go to pieces lest that one be violated?
2657To those, however, who really love the Union may I not speak?
2657VERSE TO"LINNIE"September 30,?
2657Was it climate?
2657Was it soil?
2657Was it the right of emigrants to Kansas and Nebraska to govern themselves, and a lot of"niggers,"too, if they wanted them?
2657Was not this the origin of popular sovereignty as applied to the American people?
2657We deny it; and what is your proof''?
2657Well, then, I want to know what you are going to do with your half of it?
2657What constitutes the bulwark of our own liberty and independence?
2657What do they really want, other than that slavery, being in the Territories, shall be controlled as other property?
2657What do you want more than anything else?
2657What does it amount to?
2657What does it depend upon?
2657What does that mean?

2657Which of the three powers named by Great Britain as an arbiter shall be chosen by the United States?"
2657Which of them do the New England delegation prefer?
2657Why all these complaints?
2657Why all this excitement?
2657Why are you so careful, so tender, of this one wrong and no other?
2657Why did n''t they do it?
2657Why should there not be a patient confidence in the ultimate justice of the people?
2657Why this deliberate pressing out of view the rights of men and the authority of the people?
2657Why was this?
2657Why?
2657Why?
2657Why?
2657Why?
2657Will it do for me to go on and justify the declaration that Trumbull and I have divided out all the offices among our relatives?
2657Will it satisfy them if, in the future, we have nothing to do with invasions and, insurrections?
2657Will it satisfy them, in the future, if we have nothing to do with invasions and insurrections?

2657Will you hazard so desperate a step while there is any possibility that any portion of the ills you fly from have no real existence?
2657Will you make war upon us and kill us all?
2657Will you not say that in this matter he is more wisely for you than you are for yourselves?
2657Will you please bring with you to- day the message from the War Department, with General Scott''s note upon it, which we had here yesterday?
2657Will you, if in your power, procure them and forward them to me by express?
2657Will you, while the certain ills you fly to are greater than all the real ones you fly from-- will you risk the commission of so fearful a mistake?
2657Would an exchange of name be an exchange of rights?
2657Would it be far wrong to define it as"a political community without a political superior"?
2657Would it be just or generous?
2657Would that be right?
2657Would the marching of an army into South Carolina, without the consent of her people, and with hostile intent toward them, be invasion?
2657Would the number of John Browns be lessened or enlarged by the operation?

31823Well, young man,says the General, with Spartan equanimity,"have we bagged the enemies of human freedom?"
31823What was that?
31823Who would think now,said he, reflectively,"that it could be turning all the time?"
31823Why, how_ could_ I interfere with Tommy, when I only let him do, in his own way, what he gave me to understand he was able to?
31823Why, my Union champion,says I, wonderingly,"I should like to know at what time the Captain makes it a practice to retire?"
31823Why, my future Jefferson,says I, feebly,"what are you going to do with McClellan, then?"
31823Why,says I, anxiously,"now that the squadron has run the blockade, how are you going to get her back again?"
31823Why,says I, epigrammatically,"do n''t they go far enough forward in front?"
31823Wilt thou do me one favor, noble youth?
31823Yes,says I, sceptically;"but how are you going to get the squadron back again?"
31823''And now, continued Mr. Pepper''s Ghost,''that I have shown you these illustrations of your wickedness as a rich man, how do you feel?''
31823''What do you mean by that?
31823( A voice:''_ And we''ll make them love us yet?_''''_ The New York election tickles them!_''and cheers.)
31823( A voice:''_ How are you, old boots?_''''_ We''re the boys to give the Rebels comfort!_''and cheers.)
31823( A voice:''_ We are here to- night to stand by the Constitution!_'') What''s old Abe about?
31823( A voice:''_ Whose good was he removed for?_'') For Jeff Davis three cheers, boys, and great enthusiasm.
31823--"''Must''--"''Must?''
31823A Mackerel chap, who had noticed his staring and great agitation, approached respectfully, and says he:"Does a obstacle to victory protrude?"
31823Ace and two Kings is it?
31823And is not each editor of these excellent and sanguine morning journals well qualified by his military genius to represent a General Ism, oh?
31823And is not this unaffected remark sufficient, my boy, to raise the wrongfully despised Pig to the dignity of an adjective, at least?
31823And this mere boy, who could make himself equal to an emergency,--what of him?
31823And was he not right?
31823And where shall we get that gold?"
31823And why should we say"only"a Pig; as though a Pig were so_ very_ inferior to proud Man?
31823And why?
31823Are there not dozens of Smiths in this world,--ay, even John Smiths?
31823Are we about to die this pleasant morning?''
31823At this juncture the same old Mackerel again stepped forward, and asked if the turkeys came by mail?
31823Both the old ladies made at him at once to know which, in his opinion, was the right word,--''Reconstruct,''or''Restore?''
31823But what is this manuscript upon my table, as I write?
31823But what is this, starting up, as from the ground, right in the path of what else had been the most exorbitant cavalry charge on record?
31823But what shall I say about the agency of this same Government in producing a Military Necessity at the late great battle of Paris?
31823But wherefore, O, Eros, dost thou detain me in such scenes as these, while the hoarse trumpet of bully Mars calls me to the field of strategic glory?
31823But why should I dwell upon the dreadful suggestions of a theme like this?
31823CHORUS.--Calculated to account for the complacency of the tender parent on this trying occasion: Now what, after all, is a sale to the chit?
31823Captain Munchausen smiled superciliously, and says he,"Is this intended by your vandals to be what you call a brilliant cavalry dash?"
31823Captain Villiam Brown listened attentively, and says he:"Is your intelligence official, or founded on fact?"
31823Could it be possible, my boy, that there was a serious and profound truth in that unconsidered Mackerel remark?
31823Davis?"
31823Day- day, Tomkins, my good fellow, how- de- do?
31823Did you ever eat as much as you wanted at dinner, when members of the opposite sex were opposite?

31823Have you any coffee?
31823He looked at his son, and says he:"Can you do it Tommy?"
31823He might go out into the street and tweak the nose of the first brother- Englishman he saw; but would that Englishman kick him for it?
31823He waved his sword courteously to Villiam, and says he:"You bring your hordes to measure sabres with us, I presume?"
31823He_ does_ Husband it my boy, and what is the consequence?
31823Hen?"
31823Here I hastily stepped up, and says I,"But are you not going to consult the President at all about it, my Jupiter Tonans?"

31823I glanced askance at him from under my vizor, and says I,"What Captain, my trooper?"
31823I listened for a moment, and then, says I:"What may be the occasion for this noonday melody?"
31823I observed him attentively, and says I:"What is the nature of your contract with the Government, my serious friend?"
31823I slapped him on the shoulder, and says I:"Well, my ancient Talleyrand, how are we?"
31823I wish you''d only consented to stop before-- EH?"
31823If my plan does not agree with your plan, wherein does your plan assimilate with my plan?
31823If your plan and my plan are not the same plan, how can my plan and your plan be one plan?
31823If your plan is different from my plan, how can my plan be the same as your plan?

31823Miss Linda sprang up with a look of dismay:"You surely do n''t mean, dear papa, what you say?"
31823Oh, believe it, thou most innocent of heroes; for is it not so written in all our excellent morning journals?
31823Our Uncle Abe smiled feebly, and scratched his head, and says he:"What Smith and Jones, neighbor?"
31823Our brethren are already in the field; why stand we here idle?
31823Samyule was greatly affected, and says he:"Was it the Family Bible, sweet cherub?"
31823Samyule wiped his tear- dimmed spectacles, and says he:"Perhaps it was her daguerreotype?"
31823Sergeant O''Pake modestly stood out of the ranks, and says he:"Of course_ you_ will go ahead of us, Captain?"
31823Sergeant O''Pake who always takes things literally, turned to Bob, and, says he:"What makes it soft?"
31823She surveys herself in the mirror of the Potomac, and says she:"Where''s my Congress, without whom I am like a gas bracket deserted by its old flame?"
31823The Chaplain and a private Mackerel in rags were bending over him, and says I,--"Who was he?"
31823The Confederacy hastily put on a pair of white cotton gloves, and says he:"Am I addressing the Democratic Organization?"
31823The Kentucky chap''s face then assumed the most terrific expression I ever saw, and says he:"Are you not alarmed at your awful position?"
31823The afflicted chap toyed with his spectacles, and says he:"But suppose Providence should refuse?"
31823The aged file advanced his blue spectacles to the very verge of the top, and says he:"Well, now, it''s wonderful, an''t it?
31823The chairman looked at him, and says he:"What are you waiting for, my friend?"
31823The little woman looked up at him from the ottoman on which she was cosily sitting, and says she:"Well, dear?"
31823The maternal girl smiled grimly at the fragile suppliant, and asked:"How much is his celery,_ ma petite_?"
31823The other Mackerel paused in his work of cracking an army biscuit between two rocks, and says he:"Which end do you mean, Sammy?"
31823The speaker said:"How are you, old boots?

31823my boy, what can we say to such a revelation of national strategy?
31823observed the Conservative Kentucky chap, somewhat hysterically, in the midst of his dance;"of course you did n''t see what I was doing?"
31823or is it Folly alone that stoops to you?
31823said Captain Bob Shorty, agreeably,"did you see the star- spangled banner that time?"
31823said Captain Bob Shorty, pleasantly,"did you count the stars upon our Flag that time, my grayback?"
31823said Captain Bob Shorty,"that was dying young, for Villiam; but who can tell whose turn it may be next?
31823says Captain Villiam Brown, pleasantly,"ca n''t you dig a canal?"
31823says Mike, says he;"but is n''t it yer own self,"says he,"that''s been advisin''me by the year,"says he,"to stop her poteen?"
31823says Villiam, haughtily,"why?"
31823says Villiam, pulling out his ruffles,"is the conflick too much for the scorpions?"
31823says he, ungraciously,"where did all those rags come from, and what is their name?"
31823says he,"what was that question, young man?"
31823says the Confederacy, scrambling into the Fort,--"any Hyson senior or junior?
31823says the Conservative Kentucky chap, with such a start that the gentleman in the checked pants vibrated as though sleeping on springs,--"Proof?
31823says the Court,''what then?''

44492Inoffensive,_ which_? 44492 Pray how did you know that I am from America?"
44492Which? 44492 As Gluckmansklegge rode up, he said,Well, Col- o- nel, how you like?
44492At last he said,"Well now, Colonel, I do n''t reckon you bought that hoss to look at him on the picket- line, did ye?"
44492Can you direct me to a hotel where I can get a bite before I go on?"
44492Confound these Englishmen, thought I, where is their traditional coldness and reserve?
44492Did I remember his horse,--his"Fuchs"?
44492He had bought him in St. Louis from the quartermaster, and would I oblige him by trying him?
44492He replied,"O, who can tell?
44492I did find the Angel comfortable,( as what English inn is not?)
44492Nice pretty strong horse, what?"
44492One evening Gluckmansklegge came to my tent door:"Escoose, Col- o- nel, may I come?"
44492Who is at the head of this house?
44492Would I get him enlisted?

45503Who''s your Colonel?
45503But where was the soldier that was ever satisfied with his rations?
45503Could it be that it was really a part of our regiment in advance of us?
45503Do you expect to live forever?"
45503The enemy?
45503To solve the question it was shouted to those men"What regiment is that?"
45503Was he intending to move directly west towards Lynchburg, or southwest for Danville?
45503Who is more worthy of honor than are these comrades?

31774Could n''t you find somebody on your own level to fight, without startin''a fuss with a passel o''low- down, rust- eaten roustabouts? 31774 Did a large body of rebels go past your house yesterday, and which road did they take at the forks?"
31774Did you ever hear sich vulgarity?
31774Do you want any more? 31774 Does it always rain this way in June down here?"
31774Does not Goober Creek run down there about a mile in that direction?
31774Early for tattoo, ai n''t it?
31774Goodness, is that so?
31774Great Goodness, Shorty,said the Deacon,"is that you?"
31774Great day, ca n''t you fellers understand plain English when it''s talked to you? 31774 Groundhog,"said Si, approaching that function ary,"was you watchin''carefully while me and Shorty was pickin''out the shallow places?"
31774Have you got them all aboard, Sergeant?
31774Here, Sergeant,shouted the Officer of the Guard, who came running up;"what are you fooling around with these fellows for?
31774Hold on, men,shouted the Lieutenant;"you are certainly not going to abandon your officer?"
31774How about Shorty?
31774How could you imagine such a thing? 31774 How far is it to Shelbyville, Gran''pap?"

31774Hullo; did West Point learn you that?
31774I help?
31774I wonder how many o''them 25 miles toward Shelbyville we''ve made to- day?
31774If you call the graybacks infantry and the fleas cavalry, what in the world do you call these, Si?
31774Is n''t there anything that you can suggest or recommend that will mitigate this trouble?
31774Is n''t this the grandest country on earth, Shorty?
31774It was a mighty smart thing to do down at the front, but what are you going to do now, when you want to give the money to the people it belongs to?
31774License? 31774 License?
31774Lieutenant, you all right?
31774Make you seasick, Si?

31774Take him along?
31774That fool thing wid a bore no bigger''n a gimlet hole? 31774 The one built of poles?
31774They begin to see how the thing''s done; and did n''t they act splendidly? 31774 To think of me, a Deacon in the Baptist Church, akchelly meditatin''about goin''to another man''s coop at night and stealin''his chickens?

31774What''s the use? 31774 What''s them?"
31774What''s wanted?
31774What''s your name? 31774 Where do you men belong?
31774Where in the world could they have all come from?
31774Where on the Wea prairies,muttered Shorty,"did Old Abe pick up that job lot o''wind shaken, lopsided saplings?
31774Where''s the regiment, Sile?
31774Which man fired?
31774Who air yo''haltin''?

31774Why are you not down there directing them?
31774Why do n''t they order us forward with the bayonets?
31774Why do n''t you build bridges over the creeks?
31774Why not? 31774 Why was I not informed as to what you were doing here, sir?"
31774Wo n''t yo''please tow me ashore?

31774An''what d''yo''want?"
31774And fwhere is the flint to stroike foire?"
31774As they stood their guns over against the side of the car, Si suddenly asked:"Shorty, did you draw your charge before you rammed that money in?"
31774Bin livin''so high lately that you had to have a fight to work off your fractiousness?
31774But I hain''t got the tenth part in; where kin I put the rest?
31774But how under heaven are we goin''to make sure of it?"
31774But how''s my pardner over there?"
31774But how''s my pardner?"
31774But we got the flag, did n''t we?"
31774But what kin I do with''em?
31774But what was that signal with the horn, and where was this girl goin''?"
31774But what was that to a soldier- boy who had been home, seen his best girl, and had one of his mother''s square meals?
31774But yo''ai n''t gwine t''insist on me keepin''my promise right off, air yo''?"
31774Ca n''t see no sense in holdin''a gun straight up an''down that- a- way, anyway, an''if yo''do, hain''t one side jest as good as t''other?"
31774Ca n''t you at least check them a little until we can get through the campaign?
31774Ca n''t you let us go home?
31774Could Maria ever be made to believe such a thing?
31774D''ye think so?
31774Deacon, how much is in that small haystack of your''n?"
31774Did n''t you see that flock o''blackbirds just settle down on that fort?"
31774Do n''t all yo''uns have none at yo''uns''s weddin''s?"
31774Do n''t you know nothin''about mules?
31774Do n''t you know nothing?
31774Do n''t you remember they told us about him?
31774Do n''t you see that man''s killing that team ster?"
31774Do n''t you see you''re stopping the Second Brigade and all its teams?"
31774Do n''t you see?"
31774Do you hear me?"
31774Do you really suppose we''ll be able to git there before our three years is up?"
31774Do you see that corn- crib over there?"
31774Do you want to hopen hup that''ell''s kitchen hagin?"
31774Does it mean that he killed a man named Hospital at Chattanooga, and badly wounded E. C. Bower in the socks?
31774Each looked at the other in surprise, and asked:"Why, ai n''t he here?"
31774Either of you sick or wounded?"
31774Have you anything to eat that you''ll sell us?
31774Have you ever bin interduced to a Mississippi catfish?
31774Have you ever seen an alligator- gar at home in the Lower Mississippi?
31774Have you got enough?"
31774He just found time to ask Shorty:"Say, this is great this''s like livin'', ai n''t it?"
31774Hello, what''s that?
31774Here, you tall fellow, what''s your name?"
31774How could be better celebrated the Fourth of July than by the wholesale slaughter of the tyrants who drain the life- blood of freemen and patriots?
31774How far is that?"
31774How in the world''d you ever come to enlist and leave all this?"
31774How many men did you bring?"
31774I never kin recollect hit, an''what''s the use o''tryin''?
31774I wonder how many miles we''ve made of them 25?"
31774I wonder where Shorty is?"
31774Is that all your conscience has to offer?
31774Is that the best you can suggest?
31774Know Judge Drake?"
31774Let up, wo n''t you?
31774Lordy, Mister, hain''t you got something t''eat?

31774McGillicuddy''s man?"

31774Now, gentlemen, who wants to buy a quarter ton of Deacon Klegg''s first- class hay?"
31774Now, how kin I best do it?"
31774Now, will you git up?"

31774Say, boys, what''s happened?
31774Say, youngster, his yours a good regiment?"
31774She re covered herself first, and said teasingly:"Well, how do you do?
31774Si clutched his partner in his excitement and said,"Shorty, did you hear that?
31774Si saw it in time to thrust it aside, saying in wrathful astonishment:"Nate, you little scoundrel, what do you mean?
31774The Lieutenant was the first to speak:"Are you a commissioned officer?"
31774The old man called out to him imperiously:"Heah, stranger, who air yo''?
31774Then again:"Great jumpin''Jehosephat, Nate, will you never learn the right way to hold your gun when you present arms?
31774Then, how''s the hospital badly wounded Bower?
31774This''s a percussion- lock; do n''t you understand?
31774We''ll try hit again some day, when Hi''ve got the likker out o''me; wo n''t we?"
31774What air yo''uns doin''?
31774What are they?"
31774What are you doing down here?
31774What can I do for you?"
31774What do you think, Shorty?"
31774What do you want?"
31774What have you got in that wagon?
31774What in the thunder have we bin doin''for the past four days but observe cricks, an''cross the nasty, wet things?"
31774What in the world can that be?"
31774What is''t the Bible says about''Let him who is without sin cast the first stone?''
31774What on airth does that mean?
31774What''d become o''the army if he''d git sick, and me away?"
31774What''d become ob dis pore niggeh if he should die?
31774What''d we better do?"
31774What''s got into you?
31774What''s that about his socks?
31774What''s that?"
31774What''s the matter with you, anyway?
31774What''s the matter with you?
31774What''s the matter, girls?"
31774What''s the sense o''walkin''so''close together, anyway?
31774What''s your name, my boy?"
31774Where amid all these fortifications of appalling strength would Bragg offer them battle for the Confederacy''s vitals?
31774Where are they?"
31774Where are you from?
31774Where are you going?"
31774Where were the thousand things that, brooding by the campfire and lying in his tent, he thought over to say to her when they met?
31774Where''d ye learn to handle yer dukes?"
31774Who goes thar?"
31774Who made''em yours?"
31774Why did n''t I think about it before?"
31774Why do n''t you come in to supper?"
31774Why in thunder ca n''t they learn to put a space be tween the words, and not jumble the letters all to gether in that fool fashion?"
31774Will that be enough?"
31774Will you do just what we want, if we save your life?"
31774Wo n''t hit for you, honey?"
31774Wonder if the rebel cavalry could''ve got around in our rear and jumped our trains?
31774Would you kill a wounded man?"
31774You can get the teams across, too?"
31774You see those men?
31774You''re not comin''this way agin soon, air you?
31774[ Illustration: SHE RAN LIKE A DEER, BUT SI CUT HER OFF 123]"Where are you goin'', and what for?"
31774[ Illustration:"PAP, IS THAT YOU?"
31774[ Illustration:"YOU MUST''NT KILL A WOUNDED MAN 143]"Why not?"
31774said Shorty in an undertone;"that we wuz to advance to that crick and observe it?
31774what am I goin''to do?"
45626And does any one with K on June 29th forget that march of 35 miles by the 2nd Corps to hill just northeast of Uniontown, Md.?
45626But let it pass now--42 or more years have passed-- what matters it now whose canteen it was?
45626The''Orderly''can only glance hastily into the other fifteen, with a cheering''how d''de?''
45626We cast a look back to the time K was disbanded, and, when asked where are Co. K''s 101 members?
45626Who could keep the tears back when told of how one of our brave comrades thus gave up his life in the service of his country?
12452''Good God, sir, are you all drunk?'' 12452 ''Where''s the adjutant?''
12452''Where''s the officer of the day?'' 12452 ''You sir?
12452About what?
12452Against your countrymen?
12452Ai n''t I worried about it as much as you?
12452Alone?
12452Am I free to go?
12452And I am forgiven, Harold?
12452And could not distinguish between the frenzy of treason and the enthusiasm of patriotism?
12452And did he bring you here?
12452And do you really fancy,said Harold, sharply,"that a separation is possible, in the face of the opposition of twenty millions of loyal citizens?"
12452And happy?
12452And how''s Tim?
12452And such are the men in whom the country has placed its trust?
12452And to be severed from me-- would it not be treason to your heart?
12452And what of Southern hearts?
12452And why will you not drink?
12452And yesterday received a communication from that quarter?
12452And you love him?
12452And your warm friend, I believe?
12452Are there any of the captain''s traps inside?
12452Are you Mr. Arthur Wayne?
12452Are you a devil? 12452 Are you a sailor, Mr. Wayne?
12452Are you indeed there, Miss Weems,he said,"or do I still dream?
12452Are you satisfied?
12452Are you_ not_ happy?
12452Arthur,asked Harold, abruptly,"do you think this unfortunate affair at Sumter will breed much trouble?"
12452But what can we do?
12452But what would you have men do in the face of insult? 12452 But you must promise me never to use it except to save your life?"
12452But you will get better now, will you not-- now that you are home again, and we can nurse you?
12452Ca n''t you understand it''s all a mistake?
12452Can your armies be fed, clothed, and equipped without expense?
12452Come, you''ll never mend the matter by taking cold here in the night air; where do you put up? 12452 Did Beverly tell you of Arthur''s imprisonment?"
12452Did she tell you nothing-- no absurd story?
12452Do n''t you feel strong enough to get up and lie upon the bed?
12452Do you believe, then,asked Haralson,"that there can be no peace between us until one side or the other shall be exhausted and subdued?"
12452Do you go back at daylight?
12452Do you not think,interrupted Oriana,"that a large proportion of your Northern population are ready at least to listen to terms of separation?"
12452Do you see that scar?
12452Do you see this? 12452 Do you think I''m a poor whining fool like her, to get sick and die when you abuse me?
12452Do you want to see him?
12452Do? 12452 For what offence?"
12452Go, Harold?
12452Hare?
12452Harold, where is my sister?
12452Have they gone?
12452Have you already learned to contemplate the danger that you are incurring? 12452 Have you been in Washington?"
12452Have you not heard how curiously Beverly''s intimacy with Harold was brought about? 12452 He is, eh?
12452Heaven forbid?
12452How do you feel now, madam?
12452How is it, Arthur,said Beverly, placing his hand affectionately on his friend''s shoulder,"are you hurt?"
12452How is this?
12452How long before you would be ruined by the operations of the same cause?
12452How unnatural is this strife that makes us sorrow for our foes no less than for our friends?
12452Is Harold there?
12452Is it you, Philip, is it you, indeed? 12452 Is mother there?"
12452Is not that Beverly Weems?
12452Is not the captain there?
12452Is she drunk or mad?
12452Is the bearer below?
12452Is treason less criminal because it is the treason of brother against brother? 12452 Mad?
12452Mary, how is this? 12452 May I speak a word with you?"
12452Mayhap you do n''t like my sentiment?
12452Of whom we spoke?
12452On the right?
12452Philip''s wife, eh? 12452 Philip, are you there?
12452Sha n''t I go for assistance?
12452Shall I call her?
12452She is dying, ai n''t she?
12452Tell me what I can count upon?
12452That your accomplice may receive information? 12452 The gentleman who came in before me, is he there?"
12452Told her? 12452 Was it she, Moll, was it Miranda that came here with you?
12452Well, now, you go and apologize to Miss Weems and fix matters, d''ye hear?
12452Well, sir?
12452Well, what''s up?
12452Wha''dat?
12452What about the girl?
12452What book of fate are you reading in the ashes, Harry?
12452What do you mean?
12452What does she mean?
12452What fellow madam?
12452What girl?
12452What have you learned?
12452What in thunder do you mean bringing us down here for kidnapping a lady?
12452What invalid?
12452What is it, colonel?
12452What is the meaning of this, gentlemen?
12452What is what, Phil?
12452What party?
12452What proofs of good faith can you give me?
12452What provocation can justify rebellion against a government so beneficent as ours?
12452What would you have?
12452What''s to be done?
12452What?
12452When did you get in?
12452Where did you pick up this woman?
12452Where have you sprung from now, and what do you want?
12452Where is the girl?
12452Where''s Bradshaw, Moll?
12452Where''s Philip?
12452Who are you?
12452Who goes there?
12452Who is he, anyhow?
12452Who is within?
12452Who speaks?
12452Who speaks?
12452Who thinks of trade or property at such a crisis?
12452Who was it?
12452Who''s that?
12452Who''s this?
12452Why are you not in bed?
12452Why are you so topographical to- day? 12452 Why are you thus unhappy, dear Oriana?"
12452Why do you avoid me?
12452Why should there, Arthur? 12452 Why, aunt,"replied Oriana, with spirit,"what better weapon than the sword for the oppressed?"
12452Will it soon be day?
12452Will you fight, Harold?
12452With my companions?
12452Wo n''t I? 12452 Wo n''t you?
12452Would you uphold a wrong in the face of your own conscience?
12452Yes, Harold, what of her?
12452Yet, Philip, is it not the land of your birth-- the home of your boyhood?
12452You are sure as to the disposition of the advance?
12452You have determined for the war, then?
12452You have lately arrived from Virginia, I understand?
12452You have no horse?
12452You see this plain that stretches to our right and left?
12452You think, then, that your government will prosecute the war more vigorously than before?
12452You told her that?
12452You will not forget? 12452 You will permit me at least to send a, letter-- a word-- a warning?"
12452You''ll lend me one, wo n''t you? 12452 You''re sure''twas she?"
12452--"I think I might get it for you, for-- for"----"A consideration?"
12452And how long can friendship endure this fiery ordeal?
12452And then, after a pause, she asked:"Is there a man named Searle in your army-- Philip Searle?"
12452And why should they not?
12452And with love, woman''s best consolation, to be your comforter, why should you be unhappy?"
12452And you do not think, do you, Harold, that it would be wrong for you two to speak of me when I am gone?
12452And you love him, do n''t you?
12452And you will love and guard her well?"
12452And you?"
12452Any that are dear to you, and that you must strike at on the morrow?"
12452Are you crazy?
12452Are you ready?"
12452Are you skillful at threading a woodland labyrinth?"
12452Are you there, Philip, are you there?"
12452Be quiet, ca n''t you?
12452Beverly, do you surmise nothing ominous of evil in that gathering?"
12452Beverly, of course, will release himself from all obligations about me, before he goes?"
12452But how came you thus?"
12452But is it justified?
12452But of what?
12452But what are the beauties of the landscape, bathed in the glories of the setting- sun, to them?
12452But what, in the name of common justice, would you have us do, when rebellion already thunders at the gates of our citadels with belching cannon?
12452But who can tell?
12452But will my gold recall the vital spark into those cold forms that, stricken by my steel or bullet, are rotting in their graves?
12452But"--"Well, but?"
12452Ca n''t you help her; is n''t there a surgeon among you at the farm- house there?''
12452Can we negotiate with armed rebellion?
12452Can we parley with traitors?
12452Come, now, Molly, do n''t be a fool; what''s the use, now?"
12452Do n''t I know Moll when I see her?"
12452Do you at last fear the monster that you have nursed and strengthened in your midst?
12452Do you note how strong and well- bred is the noble animal you ride?"
12452Do you see that scar?
12452Do you seek such a person?
12452Do you think she''s tracked me?"
12452Do you understand me, Phil?"
12452Do you understand me?"
12452Does it disturb you, Arthur?"
12452Does it pain you much, ma''am?"
12452Does she smile in mockery or forgiveness?
12452Driven from your presence, whom alone I cared to live for, what marvel if I sought oblivion in the wine- cup and the dice- box?
12452For her, you know, you''ll do''most anything-- now, wo n''t you?"
12452Hare?"
12452Harold would have spoken, but Arthur implored him with a glance, and answered:"What assurance can you give us against your outrages in the future?"
12452Harold, have you heard from_ her_?"
12452Has that fellow been unkind to you?"
12452Have you any that you love over yonder, Harold?
12452Have you information to impart?"
12452Hey, Bully?"
12452How can those States be sovereignties which admit a power above them, possessing the right of coercion?
12452How can you decide by your mere impulses where the right lies?"
12452I am sure she will love you none the less for her remembrance of me, and therefore sometimes you will talk together of me, will you not?"
12452I fell as low as woman can fall, and then I suppose you think he left me?
12452I prevailed on him to come at all hazards, and we are bound to have a good time and do n''t want you to discourage us; eh, Arthur?"
12452If I have spoken indiscreetly, you will forgive me, will you not?"
12452If you do n''t love me, why do you hang about me wherever I go?
12452Indeed, I trust you are not ill?"
12452Is he your friend, or relative?"
12452Is it a wonder, then, that my heartstrings ache when I see the links breaking that bind me to such memories?
12452Is it an ugly cut?"
12452Is it not our paramount duty to set at rest forever the doctrine of secession?"
12452Is not that the moonlight that streams upon the bed?"
12452Is she in there?"
12452Is she well, Harold?"
12452Just bind my head up, will you?
12452Keep quiet, ca n''t you?"
12452May I see that letter?"
12452Miranda blushed, and asked:"Do you know my husband?"
12452Miss Orany, what we gwine to do?"
12452Must the hand of man be raised against the workmanship of God because an earthly bond has been sundered?
12452Now, whar''s the good of kicking up a shindy about it?"
12452Of what consequence to you will be an hour''s delay?"
12452Or is it that my eyes are unused to this broad daylight?
12452Otherwise, what security will there be for property, and what will become of trade?"
12452Searle, how are you?
12452Shall I tell you a story?
12452Shall we do less, who have already tasted the fruits of liberty so dearly earned?
12452Shall we go now?
12452Shall we sit by our firesides and nod to the music of their artillery?"
12452She dashed it away, almost angrily, and glancing steadily at Arthur:"Do you condemn duelling?"
12452She was thinking-- of what?
12452Stranger, what''ll you drink?"
12452Suddenly, little Phil, who had been lying at ease, with his head against the thwarts, arose on his elbow and cried out:"Wha''dat?"
12452Tell me, why are you thus?"
12452Then why should we compromise with you?"
12452Think you that the eye of affection could fail to notice your dejection and reflective mood for some days past?"
12452Told her?
12452Was it a part of Hunter''s division that had turned the enemy''s rear?
12452Was she going to Richmond?"
12452Wayne?"
12452Wayne?"
12452We are, then, good friends at parting, are we not?"
12452Well, I married him-- do you hear?
12452Well, what do you calculate to do?"
12452What a boat doing round here dis time o''night?
12452What are these senseless quarrels to us?
12452What could have brought her here?
12452What do mean?"
12452What is your business at the camp?"
12452What miserable apology for a government would that be whose integrity depends upon the caprice of the governed?"
12452What was that sound which caused his horse to prick up his ears and quicken his pace with the instinct of danger?
12452When do you return to Richmond?"
12452When shall man cease to meddle with the most awful prerogative of his God?
12452When shall our right hands be cleansed forever from the stain of blood, and homicide be no longer a purpose and a glory upon earth?
12452When shall the sword be held accursed?
12452Where in thunder did you spring from?"
12452Where is she?"
12452Where''s the girl?"
12452Whither?
12452Who is her companion?"
12452Who is that with you?"
12452Who will befriend her now?"
12452Who?
12452Why did you not wait till morning?"
12452Why do n''t you leave me alone?"
12452Why do you ask?
12452Why should you care about him?"
12452Why should you want to?
12452Why will you not trust me, Miranda-- why do you thus withhold from me my only hope of redemption from the terrible vice that is killing me?
12452Will you promise, Harold?"
12452Wo n''t you, now, Moll?"
12452Would you from your heart assert that this government is not hostile to Southern slavery?"
12452Would you not have fought under the same provocation?"
12452Would you see Arthur?"
12452You come from Virginia, do n''t you?"
12452You know I do n''t care about the girl; so what difference does it make to you, if we allow her to think that she''s my lawful wife?
12452You know him, do you not?"
12452You love him dearly, do n''t you?"
12452You surely will not lend your voice to this rebellion?"
12452You will at least allow me to visit the party?"
12452are you suffering, my poor boy?"
12452asked the officer;"was he of rank?"
12452continued Rawbon, losing his quiet, mocking tone, and fairly screaming with excitement,"do you see this?"
12452do you think I''m going to make that a secret?
12452mad?"
12452what do you mean?"
12452what else but thou Gives safety, strength, and glory to a people?"
12452what strange tale is this?"
12452why did you not save him?"
12452why have I not heard it oftener to comfort my old age?"
12452your hand is cold-- or is it but the chill of death upon my own?
35423''Fore Gawd, whut sorter baby is dis yere-- over six feet high?
35423About where is the magazine located?

35423And are you-- are you going to land?
35423And did he bring no letters?
35423And do you like it?
35423Are they transporting troops now?
35423Are you going to take mamma and me home?
35423Are you hungry now, dear?
35423As far down as this, Uncle Ephraim? 35423 But can I ride horseback there?"
35423But do they expect me to return their kindness by helping them deceive the government, or to hold back supplies the army needs? 35423 But you do n''t answer my question-- what do_ you think_ he has done?"
35423Can you help me there? 35423 Clothes?"

35423Did Captain Baynell attend the meeting of the sewing- circle?
35423Did n''t you feel funny when you found out who''twas?
35423Did you know that Tompkins had sent up here and impressed Mrs. Gwynn''s horse?
35423Did you see that in a book, too?
35423Do n''t you reckon Ac''obat is homesick by this time, Captain?
35423Do you desire to push this line of investigation farther?
35423Do you imagine I left_ you_ under that imputation?
35423Do you mean to say that you did not know it-- that you did not perceive it?
35423Ef dey wuz ter follow us, dey could n''t crope up unbeknownst on us?
35423Exceptions, such as Miss Fisher''s favorite mount, Madcap? 35423 Had you heard it, too?"
35423Has he asked you to marry him?
35423Have you a pack of cards? 35423 Have you any letters or papers-- any written communication for me?"
35423Have you concluded this line of investigation?
35423He is n''t such an awful Tartar, is he, Uncle Ephraim?
35423Heavens, Uncle Gerald!--what are you dreaming about? 35423 How can Captain Baynell be called in question?"
35423How long he gwine stay?
35423Hue- come ye run dem lines, Marse Julius? 35423 I do n''t know what you mean by that-- that you would not reject him again?
35423I know-- I remember that-- but who-- where is that Rebel officer?
35423I thought you ought to know them, hearing Colonel Ashley describe the various rumors afloat-- but, but these-- they-- they will soon die out?
35423I want to know if you think I should have made it plain to those ladies this afternoon that they need fear no interference from me?
35423If we could know the secret heartache-- the blighted aspiration-- the denied longing-- the bruised pride of others?
35423In contemplation of matrimony?
35423Is disher de bestibule ob hell?
35423Is his knowledge of English, then, so limited?

35423On which side, Aunt Chaney?
35423Shall I draw up the blind?
35423Sky parlor, is it?
35423Some money? 35423 Some supper?"
35423That was all merely the love of sensation?
35423The train?
35423Then he was really in the house?
35423Then why do_ you_ come in the cellar?
35423There is some engagement taking place in the forest?
35423This is better than a''small stake to give an interest to the game,''--eh, Judge?
35423Was he? 35423 Well, what of that?"
35423Well, whose clothes, then, Uncle Ephraim? 35423 What ailed de man dat he hatter fall downsteers?"
35423What clothes did you bring,--Aunt Chaney''s?
35423What do you think Captain Baynell was guilty of? 35423 What is that?"
35423What is the difference between shrapnel and grape- shot?
35423What is your name?
35423What matter?
35423What news? 35423 What sound?"
35423What word did my father send me?
35423What you talking about, ladies?
35423What''s the matter, Sister?
35423Which side,demanded the boy;"toward the river?"
35423Who? 35423 Whut you go fur, den?"
35423Whut''s he come down here fightin''in the War without he''s able ter keep from fallin''downsteers? 35423 Why are you so sure, if I may ask?"
35423Why do n''t you leave your servitude, then, Uncle Ephraim?
35423Why does n''t she put on her''specs''? 35423 Why this unexpected pleasure?"
35423Why, what do you want me to tell?
35423Why-- whatever did you think I should do?
35423Why-- why-- how did he know they had the animal in the cellar? 35423 Why-- why-- what can they do to him?"
35423Why-- why--Colonel Ashley stammered in his haste--"how did_ Tompkins_ know?"
35423Why? 35423 Would n''t he wink at it, if he missed them or heard voices, or caught a suspicion of my being here?
35423You did not have me in mind?
35423You did not mean it, then?
35423You do not wear widow''s weeds?
35423You have seen him since?
35423You have stated that you are a widow?
35423You knew you would meet me here?
35423You think she would treat me as she has-- encourage me to make a fool of myself-- if she is engaged to another man?
35423A member of the court preferred the demand:--"Was he ever a suitor for your hand?"
35423Am I right?"
35423And presently, still repeating--"Mr. John Wray, how do you do to- day?"
35423At length he resumed:--"Did you ever hear of a fellow that hails from somewhere near here named Lloyd?"
35423But if circumstance could be adduced against Baynell, should it not equally prevail in his favor?
35423But was he not even to enter the lists, to break a lance for her favor?
35423But you have heard the five- swain story?"
35423But, sah, whut did she ever marry dat man fur?"
35423Did my father send me any message?
35423Did you tell Captain Baynell that?"
35423Do n''t they build in old walls?
35423Grape- vine?"
35423He only flushed slightly as he asked constrainedly,"Is she wearing mourning yet?"
35423How are my dear little nieces,--the''ladies''?"
35423How do you do to- day?"
35423I hate to meet Baynell-- what is he staying on there for?
35423I hearn ole Marster call it-- but what you laffin''at?
35423I want to be able to distinguish it, for may I not ask for it again some time?"
35423I will meet you in the hotel office, and shall we dine together at two?"
35423Is Leonora here?
35423Is he a rival?"
35423Is he in love with the widow?"
35423Is the officer much hurt?"
35423It seems to me that the dyes of dress goods were more delicate then than now; that is not something new, is it?"
35423May I ask_ when_ you declined his proposal?"
35423May n''t he come in, Cousin Leonora?"
35423Number ninety?"
35423Only after a time she queried irrelevantly,"Can mice climb?"
35423Really beautiful; do n''t you think so?"
35423Scared of what?"
35423She knew that to others as well the change must seem strange-- yet, why should it?
35423Should not Baynell know this, the event that preceded the long insensibility which had so blunted his impressions, his recollections?
35423So unimportant, was it?
35423That''s the man, is it?
35423The loud, cheerful,"Say, air you the galoot ez wuz swapping lies with Ben Smith day''fore yestiddy?"
35423The question went from one to another--"Has the surgeon come?"
35423Then obviously with the view of avoiding misunderstandings as to dates he formulated the query:"Was this recent?
35423Then with a light change of tone,"So much obliged for that lovely little French song-- what is it--_Quel est cet attrait qui m''attire_?
35423Then, after a moment,"Why_ do n''t_ you cut it all, Mark?"
35423Then, looking over the balustrade to those below,"Has the surgeon come?"
35423Then,"Did_ you_ have any specific instructions to guide you personally?"
35423Uncle Ephraim does n''t happen to be something of a pugilist, now?"
35423Was he, truly?"
35423Was it her hair, the old gossip had said, or was it a chair?
35423Was it possible, he asked himself, that she really received this man''s attentions, appeared publicly in his company, accepted his escort?
35423Were he really dead, he wondered, could he look calmly at Leonora''s book where she had laid it down?
35423What fur did you send_ me_ fur de doctor- man?"
35423What is all this foolery, Lucille?"
35423What room?
35423What was the pressing necessity for money?
35423What you reckon I brung dee?"
35423What-- going-- Mrs. Clinton?
35423Where is he?
35423Who is he?"
35423Who is she, Fluellen?"
35423Why do n''t you believe it?
35423Why do n''t you burn the freight?"
35423Why do n''t you go to sleep?"
35423Why not manage as if the horse had not been given her?
35423Will you explain?"
35423Would something happen at the last moment-- and what would the next disaster be?
35423You do not withdraw it utterly?
35423You gwine ter git yerself cotched by dat ar Yankee man whut we- all done loaded ourself up wid, an''_ den_ whar will ye be?
35423You will pardon me for saying this?"
35423dis de baby?"
35423he demanded sarcastically;--"what they had for supper?"
35423he had cried;"ca n''t you hold up your head at all?"
35423her beautiful hair?
35423she asked,"or are you going to leave us to be eaten up by the cows homeward bound?"
35423that young dandy with the long hair?"
35423was it her hair?
35423why did you come here?"
45233Did you see him take it off?
45233Well,inquired Lincoln,"did n''t you think it was the biggest shuck and the least ear that ever you did see?"
45233''You personally be damned,''said the Yanks,''have you any corn- bread?''
45233( 72)"How is that,"inquired the lady,"are the white people so dark?"
45233Are you willing today to give the Johnnys their Confederacy?"
45233At last he inquired,"Are you going to eat that meat?"
45233At this our men hollowered out,"What are you doing there, you Rebel sons of b----h''s?"
45233Col. Wells exclaimed to Major Curtis,"What kind of men have you?
45233Could any contrast be greater?
45233He touched his cap and accosted us--"Good evening ladies, have you got a pass?"
45233He would then have the chiefs of the latter turn their backs to the ration; when he would ask each:"Will you take this lot?"
45233How would they get the sheep captured?
45233Sometimes a soldier would be heard asking"Who will trade a bone for meat?"
45233What should we do?
45233and got fish too?"
45233what thunderous sound from the south is that?
45233you are here are you?
4260''Who do you think we are?'' 4260 But you could guess, if you tried, could n''t you?"
4260Is there anything to prevent them taking us there?
4260Just take these shears, wo n''t you, and cut my toes off?
4260Oh, yes,said he;"you are one of the Yank''s that''s been on, parole, are you?"
4260So yer Yanks, air ye?
4260Well, what are you doing here, and what is your name?
4260Were you re- captured and brought back?
4260What do you mean by this evasion?
4260What?
4260Where are you going, you d--- d Yank?
4260Who are you?
4260Why did n''t you answer to your name when it was called at the gate yesterday, sir?
4260Yes?
4260; how long''s it been since we were sitting on the sand there in Florence, boiling our pint of meal in that old can?"
4260Ai n''t you the fellow that was put in command of these men?"
4260All Westerners, air ye?
4260At that moment a guard about thirty yards to our left, who evidently supposed that we were Rebels, sang out:"Whar ye gwine to thar boys?"
4260Can there be any terms of reprobation sufficiently strong to properly denounce so malignant a monster?
4260D''you understand me?"
4260Disdaining to notice this return in kind, the old man passed on to the next stage:"What are you''uns takin''ouah niggahs away from us foh?"
4260He only meant that we should not be allowed to take any of the horses''bedding or equipments; do n''t you see?"
4260He was not suffering any, why should he relax his severity?
4260How can there be a possibility that they were not cognizant and approving of his acts?
4260How do you feel?"
4260How long does he think men could live through that?
4260I asked:"It is n''t possible that there are any Yankees down there to interfere, is it?"
4260Jest hear''em squeal, wo n''t yer?"
4260Myself--"Well, if you fellows intended stopping him, why did n''t you do it up about Atlanta?
4260Old Man--"Why, do n''t you know?
4260Old Man--(savagely),"Waal, ye do n''t think ye kin ever lick us; leastways sich fellers as ye air?"
4260Said I to him:"Well, uncle, where are they taking us?"
4260The Surgeon said:"O, that man''s dead; why do n''t you have him taken out?"
4260The big darky, followed by a crowd of smaller and nimbler"shades,"would approach one of the leaders among them with:"Is you a Galvanized?"
4260The old man passed to the third inevitable proposition:"What air you''uns puttin''ouah niggahs in the field to fight we''uns foh?"
4260Then the whole car- load shouted back at him at once:"What are you''uns putting blood- hounds on our trails to hunt us down, for?"
4260Then they wondered"whar a feller''d be likely to make a raise of a canteen of good whisky?"
4260Then walking from one prisoner to another, he said:"D--- n yer skins, ye''ll dig tunnels, will ye?
4260Was land so scarce in the Southern Confederacy that no more than sixteen acres could be spared for the use of thirty- five thousand prisoners?
4260We could step off the cars and walk over to the seashore as easily as a man steps out of his door and walks to a neighboring town, but why should we?
4260Whah did ye cum from?"
4260What could we do?
4260What did you let him come clear through the State, burning and stealing, as you say?
4260What should we do?
4260What the business is that of yours?"
4260What''s the meaning of all this fortifying?"
4260Where is he?"
4260Where were you?"
4260Wo n''t you please take these shears and cut my toes off?"
4260we all shouted in surprise:"Why he ai n''t within two hundred miles of this place, is he?"
4260what business is that of yours?
46344Who are you?
46344***** Who would attempt to word the feeling following upon the announcement of the surrender that Sunday afternoon, April 9th, 1865?
46344And, if so, did Carroll think it would be more soldierly to fight the whole rebel army?
46344But where was the string?
46344Did Shields order Carroll to burn the bridge?
46344Do we advance_ sentiment_ only, when we say that such a body did not, could not have died in''65?
46344The bandage being removed, Ashby put the question:"Who did you say is in command here?"
46344Who can say that these things were not sufficient to keep Stonewall Jackson on the other side, notwithstanding the apparent absence of arms?
46344Who the general of the camp?
46344Who the readiest army talker?
46344Who was the best- posted man on the news?
46344_ It is well to be on guard always._ And what of the present?
44783''And, citizens, what shall I say of the Seventh, which mourns its noble dead? 44783 But what means that shout so closely on our right?
44783But then, what would be considered a sufficient force?
44783But was there a demand for another book on the war?
44783Did not tears wet your eyes as you looked on?
44783Did you ever see the like?
44783How shall_ I_, who would take my place with the mourners, speak words of comfort to you?
44783I have often asked sound thinking members of the Seventh,"What of Creighton?"
44783Oh, kinsman, was not that an impressive scene?
44783Or were the doings and sufferings of one regiment, among the thousands engaged in the war, of such interest as to demand a separate history?
44783Shall I call from the shadowy world those who have died in festering prisons?
44783Shall I order the rally for those who, broken in body, shall engage in active pursuits no more?
44783Shall I summon here the spirits of those who have fallen on the half- score fields, where the staunch old regiment has left its dead?
44783Shall we retreat?
44783The color bearer was soon shot down, when Clark seized the colors, and calling to his men,"Who will follow me to retake these works?"
44783Was such a scene ever witnessed?
44783What is it when divested of its trimmings?
44783are they dead?
44783are they dead?
2805A wound, I suppose?
2805Am I badly hurt, Dan?
2805Am I to go with you, sah?
2805Am dey all gone, sah?
2805And I s''pose the moon will show de way at night, massa?
2805And how came you to enter the army, Tony?
2805And how shall I know your ship?
2805And is he much hurt, sir?
2805And now you are going to be with us for three months, Vincent?
2805And now, doctor, what am I in debt to you? 2805 And when are you thinking of getting married, Vincent?"
2805And who do you suppose all those men are?
2805And who is this officer, Lucy?
2805And wo n''t you let me pay for the man''s passage, captain? 2805 And you want to get out of the way without questions being asked, I understand?"
2805Any news?
2805Anyting de matter, sah?
2805Are they all like this?
2805Are we allowed to bring a servant with us?
2805Are you awake, Marse Wingfield?
2805Are you the same officer, sir, who escaped from Elmira?
2805Are you thinking of going out to the Orangery again soon, mother?
2805Are you using that sailing- boat of yours at present, Harry? 2805 But I thought you had made up your mind that you would rather stop at home, Vincent?"
2805But has Petersburg fallen?
2805But how do they live, Dan?
2805But how ever did you both get through the lines? 2805 But how we find de York River, massa?
2805But supposing they wo n''t work at all, even for wages, Vincent?
2805But where are the others?
2805But why should he? 2805 By the way, do you know where his clothes were sent to?"
2805Ca n''t you do something for me, Sam Smith? 2805 Ca n''t you see he is breathing, and did you not hear him groan when I examined his side?
2805Can I see Dinah, sah?
2805Can you spare me two hours now?
2805Cucumbers to- day, sah? 2805 Did either of you girls put it away, or where can it have been stowed?"
2805Did you tell him that, now?
2805Dinah,Vincent said,"has your boy gone to bed?"
2805Do n''t you know me, aunts?
2805Do n''t you know nobody is allowed to pass through the lines?
2805Do n''t you see we are dying of curiosity?
2805Do you know what train he went by?
2805Do you remember, about a month ago, a man named Pearson being here?
2805Do you see that little black thing two miles ahead of us? 2805 Do you suppose we are going to give in to five men?
2805Do you suppose, sir,Mrs. Wingfield asked angrily,"that I am the sort of person to give shelter to runaway slaves?"
2805Do you think that boy is as foolish as he seems?
2805Do you want a meal? 2805 Doctor,"she said,"I want you to come out to see some one who is very ill.""What is the matter with him?
2805Got a neighbor''s patch handy, eh?
2805Greenbacks, I suppose?
2805Hab you brought de stuff?
2805Hallo, you sir, what the deuce are you doing here?
2805Have I been asleep long?
2805Have you any idea where he went when he left here?
2805Have you any news for us?
2805Have you fixed upon any plan?
2805Have you got him?
2805How am dat, how am dat?
2805How are you getting on, lads? 2805 How are you, Tony?"
2805How did Jonas take his dismissal, mother?
2805How did you miss the straight road?
2805How do you think you would be able to find your way a dark night like this? 2805 How far are we from the mouth of the York River?"
2805How far is it to Porter''s?
2805How have you got on?
2805How long dis go on, you tink, sah?
2805How long will it be, doctor, do you think?
2805How shall we find our way back, Massa Vincent?
2805How you get dem?
2805I am ready to aid you in any way I can,the sheriff said when he concluded;"but the question is, where has the fellow got to?
2805I suppose that''s what you carried the clothes in?
2805I wonder what those two fellows are talking about?
2805Is he dead, sah?
2805Is it Tony, sah; for de Lord''s sake, is it Tony?
2805Is it about a lady?
2805Is she older than you, Vincent?
2805Is that so?
2805Is that so?
2805Is that you, Longmore? 2805 Is the general in?"
2805Is there anything else you will want? 2805 It does n''t make much difference what a man is in a surgeon''s eyes, Dan; the question is how badly he is hurt, and what can be done for him?
2805Mother,he said,"can you put me up for a couple of days?
2805Mr. Renfrew,he said,"I want some money; can you lend it me?"
2805Not much to look at, are they? 2805 Now which way, Vincent?
2805Now, Dan, what is the next move?
2805Now, Miss Kingston, which do you think is our best course? 2805 Now, Vincent, what offer do you make for the letter?
2805Now, gentlemen,the auctioneer said,"surely you are not going to let this desirable piece of property go for seven fifty?
2805Now, then, what do you want?
2805Oh, that''s it, is it?
2805Plantation liquor?
2805Sergeant Newson, am you dere?
2805Shall I go, sah?
2805Shall we make some broth for him?
2805Shall we take de horses, sah?
2805To wait for what?
2805Union or not Union, I mean to talk it, and I want to know who is going to prevent me?
2805Want to get through the lines, eh?
2805Was Lee''s force all engaged yesterday?
2805Was he always alone, or did he have many people here to see him?
2805Was he, sir? 2805 We want to know whether she has seen her husband since the day of his flight from the plantation?"
2805Well, Dan, have you obtained any news?
2805Well, Dan, what''s your news?
2805Well, what is it, sergeant?
2805Well, what is the piece of news?
2805What am I to do, Chloe?
2805What am you going to do, Miss Lucy?
2805What are they going to do that for?
2805What are you doing here?
2805What are you laughing at?
2805What are you spying about here?
2805What do you say, Chloe?
2805What do you want for them, boy?
2805What for?
2805What had we better do, Vincent?
2805What has happened, nurse?
2805What have you been doing to that fellow Andrew Jackson?
2805What is it, Chloe?
2805What is it, Dan?
2805What is it, stranger?
2805What is the thing? 2805 What is your name, sir, and who are you?"
2805What is your news, Dan?
2805What name?
2805What o''clock is it, mother?
2805What on earth do you want money for? 2805 What on earth do you want to buy a slave for?
2805What ought we to ask for these?
2805What plantation liquor like?
2805What sort of thing?
2805What will you do?
2805What''s it like?
2805What''s the matter, Dan? 2805 What, have n''t you got one now?"
2805When did he come to you?
2805When do you leave for the front, Captain Wingfield?
2805When we going on, sah?
2805Where are the girls, mother?
2805Where are you going to, and where have you come from?
2805Where do you come from, lad?
2805Where have we get to now, sah?
2805Where is he now?
2805Where is it, mother?
2805Who are you, sir?
2805Who is it?
2805Why did n''t he come on board before I started?
2805Why did you not bring him in?
2805Why did you not cross by the bridge?
2805Why did you not tell me that you wanted the money instead of going to Mr. Renfrew? 2805 Why should you not stay here till then, Mr. Wingfield?
2805Why you not leave dem black clothes behind, sah? 2805 Why, Vincent, where on earth have you been all this time?"
2805Will any one else make an offer?
2805Will you take him?
2805Will you take your letter again?
2805You are a Confederate?
2805You are not going away again to- night, Vincent, surely?
2805You are unwounded, sir?
2805You belong to the cavalry?
2805You ca n''t find out wher his luggage was checked for?
2805You did n''t s''pose I was coming along shouting and whistling, Sergeant Newson? 2805 You do n''t know where he went to from here, I suppose?"
2805You do n''t know whether he has any friends anywhere in the Confederacy to whom he would be likely to go?
2805You do n''t think my patient would ill- treat his slaves?
2805You do not think there is any probability of the ultimate success of our cause?
2805You have got promoted?
2805You have got your six- shooters with you, I suppose, because you are as likely as not to have to use them?
2805You have no idea, I suppose, Dan, as to which way he is likely to go?
2805You know what the consequence would be if you were caught?
2805You mean he is a negro?
2805You remember taking some tings to station for a tall man wid gray goatee, Pomp?
2805Am I not wounded?"
2805And it was you who beat that man and threw his revolver out of the window?
2805And now what can I do for you, sir?
2805And what should he say now when the negro wrote to claim her?
2805And you, Lucy, do you think you could care for me?"
2805Are you going to get rid of it at Camden to- morrow?"
2805Are you one of them?"
2805At last Vincent, who had been half an hour without speaking, said:"Are you sorry our journey is just over, Lucy?"
2805Been fighting-- eh?
2805Besides, what can I do in a town?
2805But how in the world did you two manage to travel alone all that distance and get through the Federal lines?"
2805But is not your brother here?
2805But, in the first place, which line do you mean to take?"
2805Ca n''t you manage to bring me a little here?"
2805Can you let me have the money?
2805Did I not hear a few months since that you bought Wildfire?
2805Did any one ever see such a bare place?"
2805Did you ever tell the people you lodged with anything about the disguise?"
2805Do n''t you think so, Ada?"
2805Do you know the plantation of Mr. Furniss, on the Pamunkeyunky, near Coal harbor?"
2805Do you know what has become of him since he left you?"
2805Do you mean to keep it here or move it higher up the river, where it would be more handy for you, perhaps?"
2805Do you not know that I love you?"
2805Do you want to buy any?
2805Does n''t ye want any fowl?"
2805Ef dose slave- hunters ca n''t find people in de swamps what chance you tink dose soldiers have?
2805Furniss said in surprise;"what treachery has he been guilty of?
2805Has no one got a full canteen?"
2805Has your servant got any warm water?"
2805Have we your permission to see this woman and to question her?"
2805Have you a rifle, Captain Wingfield?"
2805Have you got proof of what you say?"
2805Have you heard of any more of my old chums being killed since I was taken prisoner at Antietam?"
2805Have you seen him?"
2805How about the others?"
2805How am de prisoner?"
2805How are all the old house hands, and how is Dinah?
2805How are they getting on?
2805How did you manage it?"
2805How does it feel now?"
2805How far have you brought this despatch, sir?"
2805How far is it away?"
2805How far is it from the next bridge on the south, and are there any Federal troops there?"
2805How is the battle going on?
2805How long ago did this happen?"
2805How much do you want?"
2805How was that?"
2805However, as to the boat, can you give me instructions where to find it, and is it light enough for two men to carry?"
2805I suppose it''s in the water?"
2805I suppose she could get another?"
2805I suppose they will sell the baby too?"
2805I suppose you did not keep it many days?"
2805I suppose, doctor, I can be moved at once?"
2805If I do not come back to- night, can you find any one you can trust to take this piece of paper round to Richmond?
2805In that case how would he manage to approach him, and what means would he use to direct the attention of the sentries in another direction?
2805Is anything the matter?"
2805Is there anything I can do?"
2805Me say to him,''Can you read?''
2805Mrs. Wingfield exclaimed, starting up,"what has happened to you?
2805My dear child, where have you sprung from?"
2805Now is there anything I can do?
2805Now, Maria, who has got boats that have n''t been taken?"
2805Now, gentlemen, what shall we say for this desirable lot?"
2805Now, is there anything as I can do to help you?"
2805Now, mister, may I ask where you have come from and where you are going to?"
2805Now, sir, what do you think of the look- out?"
2805Now, what are your ideas as to the roads?"
2805Now, where are the clothes?"
2805Or is it him or her?"
2805Pretty well I hope?"
2805Shall we Chloe?"
2805She has told you, I hope, that she has been good enough to promise to be my wife some day?"
2805So you fought under Jackson and Stuart, did you?
2805So you managed to cheat the Yankees altogether?"
2805The captain appeared at the side and shouted to the boat now but fifty yards away:"What do you want there?"
2805The first question is-- where are we to get a boat?
2805The question is, What is to become of you?
2805The question is-- how are we to get across?"
2805Upon what day do you sail?"
2805Vincent paid him the amount, saying carelessly,"I think I have plenty of time to catch the train for the east?"
2805Vincent''s question,"Dinah, where are you?"
2805Well, do you feel ready for your breakfast?"
2805Well, have you done now?"
2805Well, what success have you had?"
2805What are you dressed up like that for?
2805What are you going to do with him if you get him free?
2805What are you looking at?"
2805What be they a- doing?
2805What can I do for you?"
2805What can I gib you?"
2805What day do you say they got here?"
2805What dey say to you?
2805What do you say?
2805What does he say, ma''am?
2805What good take dem wid you?"
2805What hab you to do wid one side or do oder?"
2805What has happened?"
2805What have you got left, Dan?"
2805What have you got to say to the charge?"
2805What is this?"
2805What made you take those two darkies along with you?
2805What money have you left?"
2805What on earth can have influenced you to act in such a mad- brained way?"
2805What on earth have you done that for?"
2805What shall you do now?"
2805What sort of lines are they?
2805What sort of man is Johnston?
2805What was de man like?"
2805What was de name of dat man, sah, you was speaking of?"
2805What would you have done, Vincent?"
2805What you want ob dem?
2805What''s the matter between you?"
2805When did you arrive from the front?"
2805When will you start?"
2805Where does your mother live, boy?"
2805Where have you sprung from, and when did you arrive?"
2805Where you come from?"
2805Whereber you get dat spirit?"
2805Which do you advise?"
2805Who is she, and what is she like?"
2805Who would you like to take?
2805Wildfire was not hurt, I hope?"
2805Will de compass tell you dat?"
2805Will you be good enough to tell me on what day he left?"
2805Will you come and breakfast with me at half- past eight?
2805Will you give me an order for my horse and myself to be taken?"
2805Will you kindly tell me what is de address writ on dis paper?"
2805Wingfield?"
2805You are not a pair of runaway lovers, are you?"
2805You are not hurt, massa?"
2805You are sure you have got everything of value, Miss Kingston?"
2805You do n''t know anything about the name of the place?"
2805You know the place pretty well, do n''t you, Tony?"
2805You like to see him, sah?"
2805You see it yourself, do n''t you, mother?"
2805You will not leave before that, will you?"
2805You will send a line to the old people, major, wo n''t you, and say I died doing my duty?
2805and if you want it, why do n''t you ask your mother for it?
2805and they are after you?"
2805and what is it you want me for?"
2805are we for duty, captain?"
2805did you discover at last that he was a scamp?"
2805the woman exclaimed;"what do you want to do that for?"
46175Did not General Sherman by this order of depopulation needlessly add to the suffering of non- combatants?
46175Has the age of poetry passed?
46175How long will it be before civilization shall cease to be a mere veneer or varnish and become a matter of substance in human affairs?
46175Is it any wonder that when such men composed the opposing armies, the fighting was such as to make men admire and angels weep?
46175It was obvious that he must draw his widely scattered forces together at some point; but where?
46175Or is it merely that our poets have been embarrassed by the very richness of our Confederate war in deeds of derring- do?
46175What if he judges wrongly?
48303But what is the reality?
48303Can they hold out till rescue comes, or will the enemy carry the works by storm?
48303Could these be the same men who labored so hard at Readville to produce some semblance to music?
48303Nor was your presence simply a pleasure but a benefit to the regiment; for what man could look aught but neat and tidy with such eyes to criticise?
48303who would not excel in drill to win applause from such lips?
48703Whence came this water?
19746''Dey ain''nobody hyuh but you an''me, is dey?'' 19746 ''Well, hoo''s de man-- hoo''s de man?''
19746And can any one hear us?
19746And he had the money, in gold?
19746And how is your mother?
19746And what are ha''nts, Uncle Peter?
19746And what are you doing here, Taylor?
19746And what are you going to do?
19746And what became of the industrial school project?
19746And what has old Peter done to deserve a fine of twenty dollars-- more money than he perhaps has ever had at any one time?
19746And what have you been doing all these years, Peter?
19746And who is the woman?
19746And you''d pay the note if you had to, would n''t you?
19746Are n''t you satisfied with the wages?
19746Are we alone, sir?
19746Are you all through, gentlemen? 19746 Are you familiar with New York?"
19746Are you looking for some one?
19746Are you speaking to me?
19746At this hour?
19746Ben tells me you have a business matter to present to me?
19746But cats do n''t fish, Uncle Peter, do they?
19746But what will you do with it?
19746But you''ll be back,she added, recovering herself quickly,"before the vacation season opens?"
19746But, Henry, how could I leave my mother? 19746 But, Henry,"she said with some hesitation,"do you mean that coloured people should use the library?"
19746But, Mistah Haines,asked Peter, excitedly,"is I got to stay here all night?
19746But, papa, if I should die first, and then Uncle Peter, and you last of all, you''ll put Uncle Peter near me, wo n''t you, papa?
19746By the way, Taylor,asked the colonel,"how do_ you_ know all this?"
19746Ca n''t dey? 19746 Can we do anything to punish_ this_ crime?"
19746Can you make it?
19746Colonel French,she said as they were walking the horse up a hill,"are you going to give a house warming?"
19746Could your mother see me,he asked, as they reached the gate,"if I went by the house?"
19746Did Jeff go away?
19746Did he? 19746 Do all spirits come back, Uncle Peter?"
19746Do n''t you want me to come?
19746Do they not need it most? 19746 Do you know where he hid it?"
19746Do you remember that? 19746 Do you suppose I can get dinner at the hotel?"
19746Do you think so?
19746Does he own it still?
19746Does his wife know where he is?
19746Excuse me, suh,he said,"I''ve been wondering ever since we left New York, if you wa''n''t Colonel French?"
19746Gone out to sea?
19746Graciella,he had said,"are you going to marry me?
19746Graciella,he said, taking her hand in his as they stood a moment,"will you marry me?"
19746Has Dr. Moffatt been notified?
19746Has Mr. Turner been in here?
19746Have you any power in the matter?
19746Have you anything to say?
19746He is named Philip-- after his grandfather, I reckon?
19746He left it here?
19746He was the speculator,she said,"who bought and sold negroes, and kept dogs to chase runaways; old Mr. Fetters-- you must remember old Josh Fetters?
19746He''s a lovely man, is n''t he, Aunt Laura?
19746How can such a hotel prosper?
19746How did he come to be arrested the first time?
19746How did you come to lose Belleview?
19746How do you do?
19746How do you know, doctor? 19746 How is Mr. French, Judson?"
19746How?
19746Howdy do?
19746Howdy, Haines,said Turner,"How''s things?
19746Huh?
19746Huh?
19746I mean,he added, noting a change in the colonel''s expression,"why should n''t Fetters pay it?"
19746I suppose that in New York every one has dinner at six, and supper after the theatre or the concert?
19746I wonder which is it?
19746I''m very glad to hear it; and how is Phil?
19746In the barn?
19746In the yard? 19746 Is Miss Laura here?"
19746Is Mr. Fetters at home,inquired the colonel?
19746Is Mr. French there? 19746 Is it a matter of money?"
19746Is it in the house?
19746Is that all?
19746Is the old man sane?
19746Is this the place, papa?
19746It was nothing-- serious?
19746Kin I speak just a word to you, ma''am? 19746 Kin you come hyuh a minute?"
19746Laura,he said one evening when at the house,"will you go with me to- morrow to visit the academy?
19746Mars Henry?
19746May I ask the meaning of this proceeding?
19746Me? 19746 Mr. Blake,"he said, addressing a gentleman with short side- whiskers who was approaching them,"have you had the pleasure of meeting Colonel French?"
19746My man? 19746 No, Henry,"she said,"why should I deceive you?
19746No, Mrs. Hughes, what is it?
19746Not even-- Ben?
19746Oh, Henry,exclaimed Miss Laura,"what is this dreadful story about Ben Dudley?
19746Oh, indeed? 19746 Oh, you are the Nichols, are you, who bought our old place?"
19746Papa, was Uncle Peter hurt?
19746Papa,he said, upon one of these peaceful afternoons,"there''s room enough here for all of us, is n''t there-- you, and me and Uncle Peter?"
19746Papa,he said,"am I going to die?"
19746Phil?
19746Quite well,returned the colonel,"how are you?"
19746Sam,he asked the coachman,"who is that white man?"
19746She is living yet, I trust?
19746Sold,said the justice, bringing down his gavel,"for life, to-- what name, suh?"
19746Surely you can not doubt it, Laura?
19746Thank you,replied the colonel,"I''ll have my man drive me out to- morrow about ten, say; if you''ll be at home?
19746That''s Mr. Dudley, I suppose?
19746The son of Malcolm Dudley, of Mink Run, I suppose? 19746 Then it is good?"
19746Well, Mr. Fetters, what say you?
19746Well, then,she said with a deep sigh,"there is absolutely nothing left?"
19746Well,said Peter,"does you''member dat coal- black man dat drives de lumber wagon?"
19746Well?
19746What is a ha''nted house, Uncle Peter?
19746What is it, Catherine?
19746What is your name?
19746What is your total enrolment?
19746What reason?
19746What time does the train go back to Clarendon?
19746What''ll you do with him, Colonel?
19746What''s the matter with them, Peter? 19746 What''s the matter?"
19746When will Mr. Fetters return?
19746Where are you going?
19746Where is he, papa? 19746 Where was it?"
19746Who did?
19746Who is the mucker, anyway?
19746Who owns the mill?
19746Why did n''t he want to talk to the black cat, Uncle Peter?
19746Why didn''he wan''ter talk ter de black cat? 19746 Why has she never shown him?"
19746Why not? 19746 Why not?"
19746Why not?
19746Why should I waste my time with you, if I did n''t care for you?
19746Why should you pay it?
19746Why, Colonel French,she cried,"you are not going already?
19746Will you be in town long?
19746Will you go for a walk with me?
19746Will you tell me whose graves these are that you are caring for?
19746Wo n''t you stay to supper, Ben?
19746Wo n''t you''light and come in?
19746Would n''t I?
19746Would you like a drive?
19746Yes, Peter, and the robins we used to shoot and the rabbits we used to trap?
19746Yes, Uncle Peter, but those were just stories; they did n''t really talk, did they?
19746You are not one of Fetters''s admirers then?
19746You could never_ live_ in it again-- after a coloured family?
19746You mean that you must regain your speech before you can explain?
19746You saw my uncle?
19746You taught her to sing--_''I dreamt that I dwelt in marble halls? 19746 You will tell me where it is?"
19746You would n''t break the law?
19746You''re Colonel French, ai n''t you, suh?
19746You''re awfully sorry for the ladies, are n''t you?
19746You''re taking Judson with you to look after the boy?
19746''Member dem chinquapin bushes, whar we killt dat water moccasin dat day?
19746''Member dem co''n- stalk fiddles we use''ter make, an''dem elderberry- wood whistles?"
19746A rope, a tree-- a puff of smoke, a flash of flame-- or a barbaric orgy of fire and blood-- what matter which?
19746Ai n''t I worth as much as a trip up North?"
19746And shall we invite the old people?"
19746And what higher work than to elevate humanity?"
19746And you''ll wait for me, wo n''t you, Graciella?"
19746Are you all done?
19746Are you from the No''th, likely?"
19746Are you still living in the old place?"
19746Bill Fetters rich and great,"he mused,"who would have dreamed it?
19746But could he expect to hold his own against a millionaire, who had the garments and the manners of the great outside world?
19746But how have you been these many years, and where is your wife?
19746But no Negro had ever thought of burying his dead elsewhere, and if their cemetery was not well kept up, whose fault was it but their own?
19746But was not his, after all, the only way?
19746But what is dere fer''em to do?
19746But why smile at the sentiment?
19746But, oh, Henry, if all of those who love justice and practise humanity should go away, what would become of us?"
19746But, wo n''t you step into the library?
19746Can such a possibility be contemplated without a shudder?
19746Can we sit down over here in the shade and talk by ourselves for a moment?"
19746Can you tell me where it is?"
19746Consider their teachers-- if the blind lead the blind, shall they not both fall into the ditch?"
19746Could he tell her that this seemingly fortunate accident was merely the irony of fate-- a mere cruel reminder of a former misfortune?
19746Did he know Ward McAllister, at that period the Beau Brummel of the metropolitan smart set?
19746Did the old Knickerbocker families recognise the Vanderbilts?
19746Did you bring her with you?"
19746Did you bring me a_ Herald_?
19746Did you ever see his uncle Malcolm?"
19746Did you see that hoss''n''-buggy hitched in front of the ho- tel?"
19746Do n''t you suppose I have any feelings, even if I ai n''t much account?
19746Do you know?"
19746Do you remember what you told me, that night-- that happy night-- that you loved me because in me you found the embodiment of an ideal?
19746Do you want to bid, suh?
19746Does anybody wish to make it less?"
19746Does you''member de place?"
19746Dudley?"
19746Fetters?"
19746Fetters?"
19746Fetters?"
19746Guilty or not guilty?
19746Had his growing absorption in other things led him to neglect his child?
19746Had the colonel remained in his native State, would he have been able, he wondered, to impress himself so deeply upon the community?
19746Had the lesson been in vain?
19746Have somethin''mo''?"
19746He has n''t gone yet?"
19746He is dead?"
19746He was not to blame for his want of knowledge; but could she throw herself away upon an ignoramus?
19746Hoo said dey couldn''?
19746How long shall I make it?"
19746How long shall I say?"
19746How many have you got this time?"
19746How much am I offered for this bargain?"
19746How much do you s''pose the Squire''ll fine Bud?"
19746I did n''t keep my word about Johnson, did I?"
19746I did not know; but he is alive, I trust, and well?"
19746I do n''t suppose you remember me?"
19746I''m offered two yeahs, gentlemen, for old Peter French?
19746Is Phil worse?"
19746Is it, for some reason, inappropriate to this particular case?
19746It was hallowed by a hundred memories, and now!----"Will you have oil on yo''hair, suh, or bay rum?"
19746May I buy him?"
19746Me an''him will git along fine, wo n''t we, little Mars Phil?"
19746Nobody ain''done tol''you''bout de Black Cat an''de Ha''nted House, is dey?"
19746Now, what''s on your mind?
19746On what days of the week was the Art Museum free to the public?
19746Ought I to give a house warming?"
19746Perhaps not many of them might wish to use it; but to those who do, should we deny the opportunity?
19746Perhaps you can recommend such a person?"
19746She wished her Aunt Laura happiness; no one could deserve it more, but was it possible to be happy with a man so lacking in taste and judgment?
19746Should they put in any evidence, which would be merely to show their hand, since the prisoner would in any event undoubtedly be bound over?
19746Strange things had happened, and why might they not happen again?
19746Tendin''co''t?"
19746The colonel had taken it up and was reading:"''Who can find a virtuous woman?
19746Tombstones always tell the truth, do n''t they, Uncle Peter?"
19746Turner?"
19746Was Fifth Avenue losing its pre- eminence?
19746Was he hurt badly?"
19746Was he marrying her through a mere sentimental impulse, or for calculated convenience, or from both?
19746We will not assimilate him, we can not deport him----""And therefore, O man of God, must we exterminate him?"
19746Well, uncle, did this interesting old family die out, or is it represented in the present generation?"
19746Were the Rockefellers anything at all socially?
19746Were these his only motives; and, if so, were they sufficient to ensure her happiness?
19746What I am bid, gentlemen, for ol''Peter French?
19746What am I bid for this prime lot?"
19746What better place for him than New York?
19746What can be the matter with Ben?
19746What can be the matter?
19746What do you plead-- guilty or not guilty?"
19746What do you want for it?"
19746What else could be expected?
19746What gentleman here would want his daughter to marry a blubber- lipped, cocoanut- headed, kidney- footed, etc., etc., nigger?"
19746What good had freedom done for Peter?
19746What have you got to tell me?"
19746What house?"
19746What is your standard of comparison?"
19746What shall I call you?"
19746What sort of a party shall it be?"
19746What''s it all about?"
19746What''s your trouble?
19746What, in the end, do we get for all our labour?"
19746When did it happen?"
19746Where shall I build the library?"
19746Who can measure the force of hope?
19746Who was Fetters, Laura?"
19746Whoever heard of anybody''s paying a note that was n''t presented?"
19746Why had he chosen her?
19746Why not?
19746Why should Colonel French, an old man, who was of no better blood than himself, be rich enough to rob him of the woman whom he loved?
19746Why should I make any more money?
19746Why should he be poor, while others were rich, and while fifty thousand dollars in gold were hidden in or around the house where he lived?
19746Will you come with me?"
19746Will you come with me?"
19746Will you let me keep our engagement secret until I-- am accustomed to it?
19746Willis when they came out?"
19746With what conscience could a white man in Clarendon ever again ask a Negro to disclose the name or hiding place of a coloured criminal?
19746Wo n''t I look funny in a hoop skirt?"
19746Would blood have been of any advantage, under the changed conditions, or would it have been a drawback to one who sought political advancement?
19746Would the colonel wait?
19746You ain''gwine off nowhere, and leave me alone whils''you are hyuh, is you, suh?"
19746You are going to like me, are n''t you, Phil?"
19746You have not forgotten the way?"
19746You wanted to see me about Bud Johnson?"
19746You''ll call up Mrs. Jerviss, of course, and let her know about the sale?"
19746_"Gwine ter run all night, Gwine ter run all day, I''ll bet my money on de bobtail nag, Oh, who''s gwine ter bet on de bay?
19746an''de minnows we use''ter ketch in de creek, an''dem perch in de mill pon''?"
19746he asked,"w''at''s gone wid de chile?"
19746she exclaimed,"and at such a time?
19746the garden?
19746the quarters?"
19746the spring house?
31773''But who wrote it?
31773''Hain''t eh?'' 31773 ''Here, what is the matter?
31773''What are you doing here, anyway?'' 31773 ''What is your condition?''
31773''What''s that? 31773 ''What''s the matter?''
31773''Who done that?'' 31773 Ai n''t you a Jew?"
31773Ai n''t your name Rosenbaum? 31773 All down?"
31773Allow doublin''?
31773And yo''?
31773Buck- and- gag her?
31773But I do n''t find none in the rest Have another?
31773But after I have said they''re boss what more is there to say? 31773 But just how are we goin''to stop her?"
31773But what''er we goin''to do with our prisoners?
31773But who are you, and where did you come from?
31773D''yo''know whar he is? 31773 Did you get through without any trouble?"
31773Do n''t you find it hard work to march at routstep with your guns at a carry?
31773Do with her? 31773 Do you know that General Bragg is the very worst man that ever lived?"
31773Do you think there''s any rebels around here?
31773Do you want me to bang you over the head with my{97} musket? 31773 Do you, Tom?"

31773He went up to the woman and said:"You say you want to go into camp to sell your pies?"
31773He''s got to swaller it in a lump, and what in the world kin I put it in that he''ll swaller whole?"
31773Hear that?"

31773She grunted an acknowledgment, and said rather imperiously:"Y''re a- gwine, air yo''?"
31773Shorty?"
31773Shorty?"
31773Si, do n''t you feel nothin''?"
31773Si, do you like smearkase?"
31773Something with gold edges on the paper and envelopes, and perfumed?
31773The man with the rope-- a big, ugly brute, with red hair unt one eye-- says:"''You''re a Jew, ai n''t you?''
31773The players would deposit their money on the numbers that they fancied, and then, after the inquiry,"All down?"
31773Then Shorty said:"Captain, you do n''t want to take that old woman, the''Squire and that skunk they call Jeff Hackberry back to camp with you, do you?
31773Then to us:''Well, what can I do for you?''
31773This is he, is it?

31773What''d you do with her picture and letters?"
31773What''d you use for shortenen''--injy rubber or Aunt Jemimy''s plaster?"
31773What''ll you have?"
31773What''s all this fuss in camp?''
31773What''s such a uniform worth?''
31773What''s that, my man?''
31773What''s the news?"
31773What''ve you{21} bin hangin''around here all afternoon, watchin''our post for?"
31773When did you get here?
31773Where are you stopping?''
31773Where did that road lead to?
31773Where did you come from this time, Levi?"
31773Where did you come from?''
31773Where in the world did you pick him up?
31773Where in time could they have all come from?
31773Where is he going?
31773Where was Bragg''s cavalry?
31773Where''s his reserve artillery?
31773Which''d come out ahead in the race for the fool medal?
31773Who are these men?"
31773Who comes there?''
31773Who did you get in the house?"
31773Who hath redness of eyes?
31773Who hath vain babblings?
31773Who''s here?
31773Why d''y''strain y''rself doin''somethin''y''ai n''t used t''?"
31773Why did n''t you take their feathers off and clean out their innards?
31773Why do ye pick me out to kill?
31773Why should they have no patriotism for countries where they were treated like dogs?
31773Why, in the name of goodness, do n''t the army move?
31773Wonder if I ca n''t think o''some more?
31773Wonder where in time it is?
31773You do n''t need to know nothin''about that, an''why go makin''yourselves fresh when there''s no necessity?
31773You do n''t think I''d try t''take whisky into camp, do you?
31773You say she''s coming back to- morrow?"
31773You understand, now?"
31773he howled,"what''s the matter with me?
31773is that true?"
31773said Si,"and where is his letter?"
31773she asked;"then what air yo''uns down here foutin''we''uns fur?
31773{ 120}"What''d you do with them letters?"
31773{ 208}"Yo''sw''ar hit?"
31773{ 40} The Deacon strode up to Groundhog and, catching him by the arm, demanded sternly:"What are you doing, you miserable scoundrel?
44889Is it running, too?
44889Why, Mister,said the soldier,"do n''t you know that hell has busted?"
44889A Sergeant demanded our surrender, the Confederate nearest him threw down his gun; the one next to me turned and said,"What shall we do?"
44889Can anyone wonder that we eighteen were drawn together that day by a bond of suffering and blighted hope, closer than ever before?
44889Can we get away and how far?
44889During the evening two ladies came in where we were, one of whom inquired:"Where are you from?"
44889Great soldiers were Lee, Johnston, Jackson, Longstreet, Hills, Pickett, Stuart and others, but who made them great?
44889Have you another man over there three feet across the back and who wears a number two shoe-- two hides to the shoe?"
44889I turn to ask, who were these Confederate soldiers?
44889In the hospital at Chester, when Dr. Schafer already referred to examined me, he said:"Young man, do you know you are nearly dead?"
44889Is it their intention to subjugate the states, and overthrow the citadel of liberty itself?
44889It must not be supposed that men were not alarmed, for doubtless many a poor fellow thought his time had come-- and pray?
44889It was from the 53d chapter of Isaiah, verse i:"Who hath believed our report?
44889Maybe these after all were the lucky men-- who knows?
44889Naturally the query was often made, how long will the war last?
44889Seeing the mighty host gathered and gathering to envelop the few rebels left, this Confederate cried out,"Do we have to whip the world?"
44889Sumner responded,"Do n''t you know that Abe Lincoln is re- elected and has called for a million men, and that Jeff Davis says war to the knife?
44889The captain inquired,"What?"
44889Then the query,"To what command do you belong?"
44889They call us rebels-- can a sovereign be a rebel?
44889What are our prospects for success?
44889What do the Northern people mean?
44889What shall we do?"
44889What should I do?
44889When will it end?
44889Where are you going?"
44889Who else could they be?
44889Who would have ever heard of them, or of General Grant, but for the Confederate soldier?
44889Why the bridge?
44889Will it continue until the last man falls?
44889and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?"
45949Did n''t I tell y''es the roight fut''s not the roight fut?
45949Why did I make you a corporal?
45949Why do n''t you blow on it, if it is too hot?
45949Why does n''t the army move?
45949Although I knew them both, I went to the side of the carriage, saluted and said,"Passes, gentlemen?"
45949And what of the chief medical officer?
45949I had not gone far when I was jeered at by boys and larger hoodlums and saluted with such questions as"Soger will ye work?"
45949I put my hand on her waist and gave the skirt a shake which caused an audible jingle of bottles, and asked her,"What''s that, Mama?"
45949I sometimes ask myself the questions-- Was my army service a benefit or a detriment to me in after life?
45949One day while on guard an elderly captain, who unquestionably hailed from one of the New England states, said to me,"Where be you men from?
45949What am I now?
45949What do you clean yours with?"
45949What must have been the thoughts and feeling of the unfortunate sufferers?
45949What should be said of the commander of the post, an officer of high rank?
45949What will you take now?"
45949Why did n''t you go there and arrest them?"
45949Would I have attained a better condition and standing, if I had not been in the military service?
45949the president said,"Then what are you standing there for?"
48586Come down out of that hat,"Jump off and grab a root,"Are you a married man or an Irishman?
48586Was any advantage of position that might have been taken overlooked, not seen, or seen and lost by either side?
48586Was this done?
48586Well knowing such orders, but not admitting the same, the Federals adroitly inquired,"What orders?"
12532''Bird or devil?''
12532''What is the appearance of this man, Arthur?
12532A boat? 12532 A native of Richmond?"
12532About sixty seconds,replied Colonel Talbot,"but what difference does it make?"
12532All right again, Harry?
12532An''you see him an''hear him talk every day? 12532 And he has sent you back with the report?"
12532And is that all that''s left of the Invincibles?
12532And may I make so bold as to inquire what it is, George?
12532And that was all, I suppose?
12532And there is no Yankee cavalry in between?
12532And what happened then?
12532And what has the army been doing while I slept?
12532And what may that reason be, Tom?
12532And what may those be, Arthur? 12532 And what were your own observations, Lieutenant Kenton?"
12532And what''s the saving grace?
12532And why could n''t it be in Kentucky?
12532And why not, Hector?
12532And you insinuate that they have glorified my state unduly?
12532And you, Kitteridge?
12532And you, McCurdy?
12532Are n''t you a Virginian by blood? 12532 Are they all gone but you?"
12532Are you about through dressing? 12532 Are you an American?"
12532Are you from Kentucky?
12532Are you one of Pickett''s men?
12532Are you strong enough to ride alone?
12532Are you sure, sir,asked St. Clair,"that the ladies do n''t really prefer chit chat?"
12532At how much did you value this horse?
12532But why do you want to convert me, George? 12532 But will he dare to attack?"
12532Buy a horse? 12532 Can the large fair person be Lieutenant Kenton of the staff of the commander- in- chief?"
12532Can we beat them?
12532Can we beat them?
12532Confederate paper or money?
12532Did I not warn you a little while ago that you could n''t frighten me? 12532 Did he do anything more?"
12532Did you think a Confederate officer could be fooled in that manner?
12532Do any of you know it?
12532Do n''t I know him as well as you, Ewell? 12532 Do n''t it beat all how things come about?"
12532Do n''t you hear the bugles calling? 12532 Do n''t you think, Captain, that a nation or a state is often lucky in its possession of writers?"
12532Do we reach it to- day, sir?
12532Do you believe that Grant is retreating?
12532Do you know what has happened?
12532Do you know what they do with a sentinel caught asleep?
12532Do you know who I am?
12532Do you mean to be a burglar prowling about the home of the man who has entertained you?
12532Do you mean to say, Tom Langdon, that I did n''t see an owl and talk with him? 12532 Do you remain long in Richmond?"
12532Do you think I''m worth so much trouble?
12532Do you think it necessary to put it in the form of a question?
12532Do you think it was a victory, sir?
12532Do you think that anybody named Michael Stanislav has the right to interfere in the quarrel of the Northern and Southern states? 12532 Do you think they''d be offended if I were to take my blankets, and sleep on the grass in the back yard?"
12532Do you think this man got our map?
12532Does he seem downcast?
12532Does this look like it?
12532Drink this, General, wo n''t you?
12532For me?
12532From the Army of Northern Virginia?
12532George,he whispered,"do you know the country into which we''re riding?"
12532Harry,said Dalton, when they were nearly to the Lanham house,"are you willing to tell what happened?"
12532Has any messenger come from Colonel Sherburne at the river to General Lee?
12532Have you heard what happened to General Early, sir?
12532Hey you, Dick Jones, where are you taking me?
12532Holding out on me, were you?
12532Hour or two? 12532 How about getting hurt yourself?"
12532How did you happen to find me, Miss Carden?
12532How did you know I''d lost my horse?
12532How do you know she''s an old maid?
12532How do you know?
12532How do you make that out?
12532How is Dick?
12532How is he?
12532How long have I been this way?
12532How so?
12532How then are you and I to get through and tell General Lee that this is the place to bridge the Potomac, if it''s to be bridged at all?
12532How was he?
12532How will you find out?
12532I might send out men and cut off a few of them,he said,"but for what good?
12532Is Meade hot upon our track? 12532 Is everything in it first class, Michael?"
12532Is it to be to- morrow?
12532Is that force moving in any direction?
12532Is that so? 12532 Is the Northern vanguard anywhere near?"
12532Is there anything more beautiful than a fine fire at such a time?
12532It''s not all, sir?
12532Michael,he continued,"you appreciate our respective positions, do n''t you?"
12532No doubt of it, what''s the latest from him?
12532None other what?
12532Robbed him of what?
12532Robbed of what?
12532Robin Hood?
12532Shall I take the Invincibles, sir, and teach them a lesson?
12532Shall we make a thorough search for him among the pines? 12532 Still harping upon that?
12532That bein''settled,said Jones,"what do you gen''rals reckon to do jest now, after havin''finished your big sleep?"
12532That you, Harry?
12532The commander- in- chief, where is he?
12532Then what is it?
12532Then you look for a sharp fight?
12532They are, are they? 12532 Waked up, hev ye?"
12532We never manufactured much ourselves, and since all the rest of the world is cut off from us where are the clothes to come from even for the women? 12532 Well, then, what time is it?"
12532Well, what are they?
12532Well, what of it?
12532Were n''t you trying to escape? 12532 Wet ai n''t you?"
12532What are you talking about, Harry? 12532 What business has a mind reader in this war?"
12532What do the words say?
12532What do you mean, Captain?
12532What do you mean?
12532What do you think is its meaning?
12532What do you want?
12532What else?
12532What happened?
12532What has been going on here, Colonel?
12532What have you done with the grave Dalton, who was your comrade on your journey to the capital?
12532What have you seen, Lieutenant Kenton?
12532What in thunder do you want with my canteen? 12532 What is it, Harry?"
12532What is it, Leonidas?
12532What is it?
12532What makes an owl''s cry disturb you so, Harry?
12532What next?
12532What things?
12532What time is it now?
12532What under the stars are you talking about, Harry?
12532What was he speaking about, sir?
12532What was his name, Lieutenant Kenton?
12532What was it?
12532What way then must I go, sir?
12532What will it be?
12532What will the colonel do?
12532What''s happening, Harry? 12532 What''s that?"
12532What''s the matter with my looks?
12532What''s the trouble in that direction?
12532When did you leave him?
12532Where did you find me?
12532Where do you keep your horses?
12532Where were the armies when we last heard from them?
12532Which way is General Pleasanton?
12532Who is that woman?
12532Who was it?
12532Whose service? 12532 Why do we find them in such humble plight, walking on weary feet in a path beside the road?"
12532Why not?
12532Why should I forget you? 12532 Why should this be the most glorious of them all?"
12532Why this gloom in your face, when all the rest of us are so happy?
12532Why, George? 12532 Why, how did you know my name?"
12532Why? 12532 Why?"
12532Why?
12532Why?
12532Why?
12532Will you tell me what it is?
12532You can hold your ground here?
12532You do n''t think that Richmond is indulging in gorgeous apparel do you?
12532You have it, Morton?
12532You rode with him, talked with him, and went into battle with him?
12532You say that you left immediately after our army crossed the Potomac?
12532You surely have it, Johnson?
12532You would n''t be boys and you would n''t be human if you did,rejoined Stuart,"would they, General?"
12532You''re from the field?
12532You''ve noticed how the commander- in- chief himself seldom sleeps under a tent, but takes his blankets to the open?
12532Am I not looking forward to this ball as much as you are?
12532Am I not right, Hector, old friend?"
12532Am I not right, Leonidas?"
12532An''the hoofs of the horses beatin''in the road?
12532And what was your grandmother''s name?"
12532Are they so salient that you would recognize them at once?"
12532At this time of the night?"
12532Before the double injunction of silence and caution, Harry whispered:"What''s happened?"
12532But do you care for good advice?"
12532But first can we ask one favor of you, Miss Carden?"
12532But to come closer home, what about the Yankee spy in Richmond?
12532But why are you so anxious to find him?"
12532But why are you so curious about a sewing woman, Lieutenant Kenton?"
12532Ca n''t you catch the gleam of lights on it?"
12532Ca n''t you hear the wagons an''the cannons clinkin''an''clankin''?
12532Ca n''t you persuade yourself, Mr. Shepard, to go and leave me alone?
12532Ca n''t you see the Yankees with your glasses, Harry?"
12532Could it be so?
12532Could it be true that the supremely old had a vision or second sight?
12532Curtis?"
12532Did his soul tell him that an end should come to fighting?
12532Did n''t you ever hear of him?"
12532Did n''t you feel the twigs and leaves falling on your face?"
12532Do n''t the Stanislavs have trouble enough in the country where the Stanislavs grow?"
12532Do n''t you hear the rifles?"
12532Do n''t you know that I''m going anyhow?"
12532Do n''t you think the atmosphere has changed?"
12532Do n''t you think the river has fallen somewhat, Colonel?"
12532Do n''t you want a carriage too?"
12532Do we bore you, Harry?"
12532Do you remember whether at supper we cut our food with our knives and lifted it to our mouths with forks, or just tore and lifted with our fingers?"
12532Do you see those men?"
12532Do you think the rebels set it on fire?"
12532Do you understand?"
12532Eh, Hector?"
12532Has the thought ever occurred to you, Colonel, that by our victories we''re making a tremendous lot of foreigners in America?"
12532Have you quarters yet?"
12532He heard the wounded man groan ever so lightly, and then the other whisper to him,"Are you much hurt, Bill?"
12532He instantly swept the ground with his plumed hat and said in his most respectful manner:"General, will you honor us by dining with us?
12532He looked down at the man and said:"What is it, Strother?"
12532He stopped and said abruptly:"You come from the commander- in- chief, do you not?"
12532Hilaire?"
12532Hour or two?
12532How are you feeling, Harry?"
12532How do I know?"
12532How do they regard the Army of Northern Virginia in Richmond now, Harry?"
12532How does the battle go elsewhere?"
12532How long have I been sleeping in this rough train of yours?"
12532How long have you been without sleep?"
12532How long have you had him?"
12532How long is it until dawn?"
12532How was he to get through that cavalry screen and reach Lee?
12532I think you realize that fact, do n''t you?"
12532If the South succeeded in forcing a separation, what then?
12532If the South succeeded, then, after the war, what?
12532Is any more poetry left in the barrel, Arthur?"
12532Is n''t it the same way with you, Hector?"
12532It made his muscles quiver, but he called in a calm voice:"Why did you do such a foolish thing as that?
12532It''s rifle shots, is n''t it?"
12532Kenton?"
12532Lanham?"
12532No?
12532Now, did n''t you find a lot of food in the woods and fields?"
12532Now, what is the day going to give us?"
12532Now, why do n''t you find this mysterious terror?
12532Ours or Reb''s?"
12532Should they stalk the detachment and open fire?
12532So it''s a message from the commander- in- chief?"
12532So they''ve located us?"
12532Study the undergrowth again, will you, Harry, and tell me what more you can see there?"
12532That pool there is about four feet deep, the water is clear and the bottom is firm ground; now do you know what I''m going to do?"
12532This is luxury, is n''t it, George, old man?"
12532Was it a cry for peace?
12532We consider it an honor, do we not, my lads?"
12532What are his orders?"
12532What are they?"
12532What are you thinking about?"
12532What can you happen to want with him?"
12532What did it mean?"
12532What do you know?"
12532What do you mean by that move, Leonidas?"
12532What ghosts?"
12532What induces you to assume the role of a prophet concerning me?"
12532What kind of a horse did you think you''d keer fur most, stranger?"
12532What say you to a little trip through the capitol?"
12532What time is it, Peyton?"
12532What troops are in here in the woods on our side?"
12532What was he doing in a woman''s room, and who was the woman and how had he got there?
12532What was he thinking, as Harry and Dalton answered the President''s questions about the Army of Northern Virginia?
12532What''s the real cause?
12532What''s your name?"
12532When did you come?"
12532Where are you two going, or perhaps I should n''t ask you such a question?"
12532Where is this enemy of ours?
12532Where was the one to whom he was talking?
12532Where''s your troop?"
12532Which is my best way to find General Pleasanton?"
12532Who is this person over whose torture you would gloat like a red Indian?"
12532Who would ever have dreamed when this war began that it could go so far?
12532Who''d have thought such a thing possible a week ago?"
12532Why do n''t you come on and attack?"
12532Why do you carry both a rifle and a shotgun?"
12532Why insist on sending duplicate after duplicate?''
12532Why should a great artist be allowed to come on the battle line?
12532Why should a man like George Dalton be sent to Richmond?
12532Why?
12532Will you tell me too what was your mother''s name before she was married?"
12532Would n''t General Grant be glad if he could say as much?"
12532Would you mind coming with me and taking a look?
12532You boys remember your Roman history, do you not?"
12532You can row, ca n''t you?"
12532You come from Ewell?"
12532You do n''t think any of these Union generals here in the East can whip our Lee, do you?"
12532You have a middle name, have n''t you?"
12532You see your position, do n''t you?
12532You would n''t let yourself be overtaken by a lot of half- bred horses not fit to associate with you?"
12532You, of course, found Richmond very gay and bright?"
12532Your pistols are loaded, Harry?
12532an''all them thousands talkin''off an''on?
12532do you hear that, George?
48822How was it with the rebels?
48822What was it that made it so still?
48822Who ever heard of a General skirmishing with a wagon train?
48822You may ask, where was Murphy all this time?
36829About what?
36829All?
36829Am I?
36829An''ain''de womenfolks allus de wheel- hosses? 36829 And Throckmorton?"
36829And do you mind her?
36829And how much of that time were you together?
36829And is it to be immediately?
36829And may we go?
36829And then you married him, and you had hardly any honeymoon, did n''t you?
36829And, my dear,answered the general, making another feeble effort,"can you not now embrace the scriptural injunction?"
36829Any more parties in prospect?
36829Are n''t you married, Freke?
36829Are we?
36829Are you surprised?
36829But did he tell you all? 36829 But does n''t he get very mad with you?"
36829But does she love me?
36829But how long, think you, could you stay, if the child''s mother knew of your behavior to- night?
36829But whar''_ he_ gwi''be, when she in her prime? 36829 But, Jacqueline, suppose-- suppose Freke should claim you, or you might, in years to come, want to marry some one else?"
36829Can you ask me, my love, if I remember anything connected with that most interesting period of my life?
36829Dear Lord, what have I done to thee that I should suffer so?
36829Did I? 36829 Do you know this is Twelfth- night-- the night for telling fortunes?"
36829Do you know,she said,"it seems queer that three strangers should come into our lonely lives-- in this quiet life here?
36829Do you like robins?
36829Do you think she will ever be different?
36829Do you think so, mammy?
36829Do you-- do you remember your mother?
36829Do you?
36829Doan''you''member, honey, how you useter like dese heah hy''cints, an''plague yo''mammy when you wuz little ter plant''em fur you?
36829Gord A''mighty, Miss Judy, what dat ar''? 36829 Has she, indeed?"
36829Have you any objection to me personally? 36829 How could she help it?"
36829How do you do?
36829How does it look to- night, Uncle Simon?
36829How you_ is_?
36829I say,persisted Jacqueline, who had one of her sudden fits of courage,"why do they trouble us to remember him?
36829I seed two tuckey- buzzards flyin''ober de house tog''er''r-- and dat''s a sign--"A sign of what?
36829I-- I-- think he is most interesting, kind-- and--"Military men are, as a rule, rather narrow, do n''t you think?
36829Is Throckmorton a fool?
36829Is it, little girl?
36829Is n''t he, though? 36829 Is that so, mammy?"
36829Is there to be no punishment for him?
36829Jane Temple, are we a couple of fools?
36829Judith,she said,"you know what queer notions I take?
36829Look a heah,''oman,Simon Peter would retaliate, when intolerably goaded,"Paul de''postle say--""What anybody keer fur Paul de''postle?
36829Major, do n''t you think Mrs. Beverley a very captivating woman? 36829 Making wedding finery, eh?"
36829Mrs. Temple, have you forgotten George Throckmorton?
36829My daughter, what is the matter with you?
36829My dear, I see you are not dancing; shall I get you a partner?
36829Oh, how can you talk so about your own father?
36829Shall we go home, Jacqueline?
36829Thank you,laughed Throckmorton, immensely tickled;"I have n''t apologized for it yet, have I, general?"
36829Throckmorton, I see, has an advocate.--And little Cousin Jacky, what do you think of the other Jacky-- Jacky Throckmorton?
36829What do you think of this ridiculous marriage?
36829What does the old fellow want, anyway?
36829What excuse can you give,she asked in an unsteady voice,"for your behavior with that child to- night?"
36829What is it?
36829What is it?
36829What is the matter with you?
36829What right have you to fill Jacqueline''s head with dreams and notions? 36829 What will Throckmorton say?"
36829Where are we going?
36829Why are you so anxious about this party, Jacqueline?
36829Why do n''t you advise him to steal a wheelbarrowful instead of a pocketful?
36829Why should he be afraid of me?
36829Why should n''t I talk so about my own father?
36829Why should n''t you dance?
36829Why should such a tender little thing as you want to throw herself in the river?
36829Will you look at the major?
36829Will you make me a soldier?
36829Would n''t it be better that Jacqueline should not have such a beautiful frock, than for you to work yourself ill over it? 36829 Yes, when one loves; but, Judith, did you love Beverley_ that_ way?"
36829You are right in saying you are not bound to justify yourself to me,said Judith;"but can you justify yourself to her father and mother?
36829You do n''t believe me? 36829 You hear that?"
36829A little later, Mrs. Sherrard whispered to Throckmorton:"Are not my two beauties from Barn Elms sweet creatures?"
36829Am I a drunkard, or a gambler, or a cad?"
36829And am I unworthy of his love, or less worthy than Jacqueline?"
36829And then, what would Mrs. Temple say to her dancing at all?
36829And what sort of a life would it be for her, with that childish restlessness and inability to depend for one moment on herself?
36829And-- what of him-- of Freke?"
36829But did she feel horror and hatred of Throckmorton?
36829But what could he say?
36829But, Judith, will you promise me to say nothing to papa and mamma until you have seen Freke, for he knows what ought to be done?
36829By the way, what would you fancy to eat, Jacky?"
36829Ca n''t you fancy the dull and silent resentment, the cold anger, with which they must regard all--""Blasted Yankees?"
36829Could anybody doubt Judith Temple''s sympathy and understanding?
36829De hy''ars from a black cat''s tail is mighty good, too--""Temple, how do you put up with this sort of thing being uttered in your hearing?"
36829Dear Mrs. Temple, have n''t you any recollection of the time when you were almost the only friend I had?
36829Do n''t you think any woman of feeling would have done as I did-- tried to atone to the man I had mistakenly married by being true to his memory?
36829Do n''t you think it would be a good idea to get a companion-- somebody who knows French?"
36829Do you believe in dreams?"
36829Do you believe me?"
36829Do you hear that?"
36829For was not Jacqueline Throckmorton''s now?
36829Had he forgotten his forty- four years, his iron- gray hair, all the scars of life?
36829Had n''t he had all he wanted of that pastime?
36829Has Jane Temple suggested that you should join the church yet?"
36829He could only say, half shamefacedly and half laughing"My dear little friend, you would n''t have men as squeamish as women, would you?"
36829Her fine nostrils dilated with anger-- for not only was it her duty to stand by Jacqueline, but was not she, Judith, a Temple, too?
36829His reason, his intellect, always overmastered him in the end; and what was there in this bewitching child to satisfy either?
36829How can you hold us to a strict account?"
36829How long would he be happy?
36829How long you think ole marse keep dis heah plantation if it warn''t fur mistis?"
36829How often was this sort of thing going to happen?
36829I hardly knew him; he was always off at college, and then in the war; why wo n''t they let us mourn decently for him?
36829I say:''What de matter, honey?
36829I wonder how it feels to have one''s heart aching and throbbing for another woman''s husband-- to be counting time by the times one sees him?
36829If he was a bloodthirsty brute to shoot a robin, what must all the slaughter of birds he had been guilty of in his lifetime make him?
36829Is she very ill, do you think?"
36829Jacqueline would answer fretfully:"What do I want to walk for?"
36829Judith, how long was it from the time you first met Beverley until you married him?"
36829Judith, is my cousin Freke a very wicked man?"
36829Mrs. Beverley, what is the matter?"
36829Mrs. Sherrard, who had become an active partisan of Freke''s, asked, as soon as they came in:"What wish did you make, Jacky?"
36829My boy Jack-- that young fellow yonder-- looks rather old to be my son, do n''t you think?"
36829Nobody who saw Freke then could say, as Mrs. Temple sometimes had said,"What is there so interesting in Freke''s face?"
36829Now, huccome she c''yarn eat?"
36829Or is it the child Jacky?"
36829She gave Throckmorton a comical look, and whispered to him as he shook hands with her:"Out with the Sister of Charity, hey?
36829She longed to say:"What is he to us?
36829She says to everybody,''Do n''t you think the child is like his father?''
36829Such conversations as these were frequent:"Major, are you going over to Barn Elms this evening?"
36829Suppose she should not be asked to dance?
36829Suppose-- suppose he should seriously try to win Jacqueline?
36829Tell yo''ole mammy dat nuss you?''
36829Throckmorton?"
36829Was Mrs. Beverley fond of reading?
36829Was a divorced man really a married man?
36829Was it possible that he should n''t be making love to either Judith or Jacqueline?
36829Was she forgetting the child?
36829Was she then barred out forever from those people, and all for Freke, while even the happiness of being with him was denied her?
36829What better chance would Throckmorton have than when she should be gone to put the child to bed?
36829What dem bells ringin''fur?
36829What did he want to marry again for, anyway?
36829What does Freke''s opinion count for-- what does Freke himself?
36829What has made her ill?
36829What was he doing at that very moment?
36829What would become of her twenty years hence-- so pretty, so charming, so inconsequent?
36829What would life have been to her?
36829What would they do to her?
36829Where is mine?"
36829Where was he?
36829Where were his doubts and questionings?
36829Whose hat is this?"
36829Why ca n''t he be allowed to rest in peace, like other dead people?"
36829Why ca n''t people let other people be comfortable in that least space, instead of-- of-- killing them as-- being so unkind to them?"
36829Why ca n''t you go away and leave her in peace?"
36829Will that satisfy you?"
36829With love and patience what might not be done with any woman?
36829You heah me,''oman?"
36829You ought to see him, trotting around down- stairs, saying:''Where is my Jacky?
36829a companion, with Throckmorton?
36829do you know any music?"
36829do you think I do n''t see it all-- all-- all-- not only what has happened, but what is happening now?"
36829thought Jack to himself,"if Mrs. Beverley does n''t suit him?"
36829what do they think I am?"
36829what nonsense are you talking?"
36829what was that boy that Beverley had left, what was Judith the young widow, or even Jacqueline, to that lost son?
36829what would you recommend me to do regarding George Throckmorton when he arrives?
49976Do you intend to escape, Lieutenant?
49976After looking at me closely from head to foot, she exclaimed,"Is you a Yankee?"
49976Did you come through underground?"
49976How in the world did you get through?
49976Looking the very picture of fright and astonishment, she threw up her hands and exclaimed:"Fo''de Lo''d, massa, wha''you come from?"
49976The same question was put to me:"Wha''you all gwine?"
49976They walked rapidly towards my guides and called out:"Wha''ye all gwine?"
49976This was done by placing a man with his back to the pieces of bread, and the sergeant pointing to one piece at a time and asking,"Whose is this?"
49976Was that sentinel a Yankee was the first thing to be settled satisfactorily?
43589Has Man a Conscience?
43589Have you finished harvesting? 43589 Well with the child?"
43589Well with the child?
43589Well with the child?
43589Well with the child?
43589And in what arm of the service?
43589And must he not arise?
43589And perhaps you may ask, does it meet my expectations?
43589Besides, it prohibited fire- water, and does not a father prevent his children from drinking fire- water?
43589Ca n''t we learn from our enemies?
43589Daniel is a first- rate business man, and, as he likes farming, why not make it his business?
43589Did I not come through your country one year since?
43589Did I then make promises to you?
43589Did you gather many walnuts?
43589Do you run as erect as you walk?"
43589Do you think the characters of Pitt, Fox, and Burke, as described by the author in the former work, are correct?
43589Do you think we could get Governor Everett?"
43589Does my venerable friend Seattle object?
43589Governor Stevens:"Does any one object to what I have said?
43589Great Chief, what shall we eat if we do so?
43589Have I told you that we are living in the government palace?
43589Have you any school in view now for next summer?
43589Have you ever read any volumes of the''Spectator''?
43589How could Oliver and the girls, if any are at home, pass the time better than reading or studying till perhaps ten in the evening?
43589How long a leave had I better get?
43589Is he not needed?
43589Is it good?
43589Is it not because your young men go out on war parties, and thus the flower of your tribe is cut down?
43589Is it not better that your young men should have wives and children, and that your numbers should increase?
43589Is it to be wondered at?
43589Is it vacation with John Loring now?
43589Is not here a work for a Moses or an Alfred?
43589Is not his speech in the case of Blake v. Wilkins admirable?
43589Is not the dissolution of the Union a subject of fearful foreboding?
43589Is this good, and do you want this?
43589Now, what have you to say?
43589Shall I hear from you there, and how many letters will await me?
43589Shall I hear from you there?
43589The Great Father desires this, and why am I able to say this?
43589The Indians had some discussion, and Governor Stevens then put the question:"Are you ready?
43589The first question Isaac put,"Can a sincere Universalist be saved?"
43589The following beautiful lines were written by Mr. Brooks, in condolence upon the sad loss:--"Well with the child?"
43589To this the governor rejoined:--"''Why is it that you have two or three women to one man?
43589Was this meant to vanish into thin air?
43589Were not many of you now present witnesses of the fact?
43589What are we to do?"
43589What did the Whigs gain by representing General Jackson to be in leading- strings?
43589What do you think of them generally?
43589What had I best do?
43589What is the lowest grade that you would be willing to accept?
43589What should they do, they asked, in case the Blackfeet came near their camp at night?
43589What will a man do for his own children?
43589Where, then, shall we find these?
43589Why not let us live together with you?
43589Why not send them to the east?
43589Why should we sell all?
43589Will you meet them in council?''
43589Wo n''t your women prefer husbands to scalps and horses?
43589Would you desire such a transfer?
43589You say you will give us land, but why should you give us the mouth of the river?

47274***** NO TWO SHOTS, EVER STRIKE THE SAME SPOT?
47274***** WHO KILLED THAT CALF?
47274***** WHO STOLE THE DUMPLINGS?
47274But how?
47274By the way, Sammy, where did you play the final game, Hey?
47274Do you mind the fence, all grown up with red briars, the"durned old haversack"filled with potatoes, that you wanted to get rid of, and could''nt?
47274Hey?
47274How did the new line of union pickets cut the rebel line in two places, as evidently it did, without seeing an enemy or firing a shot?
47274I am proud of the conduct of company K, at, as well as after the battle of Gettysburg, and why should I not be?
47274In what light can I set the high mark of their patriotism?
47274It was at this juncture Gen''l Porter said,"Col. Roberts, ca n''t you form a line and stop those flying troops?"
47274On the spur of the moment I said,"Can you supply me with just a bite to eat?"
47274One aged citizen when convinced of identity of his own nephew, said"Vy Chon, for vat de defil you left dem repel soljers gum up heyr, Hey?"
47274Taking courage I told the woman of my illness and my craving for home- fare, and that in her motherly goodness would she sell me two of those pies?
47274The reply was,"I did''nt hit you, did''nt I?

47274W. do you remember that foot- race?
47274What words can tell the story of their courage, with what language can I adorn their lofty heroism?
47274When asked the question,"How did you do it?"
47274any thing the matter, in there?"
47274what do you want?"
49089Where is he?
49089Another man said,"If you will go in I will go with you?"
49089Finally I said,"Well, what about it?"
49089He asked,"Who are you?"
49089He said,"Who are you?"
49089He stooped to feel for it and Brother Isaac asked,"Billy was that you shot?"
49089He then said,"Why in the hell do n''t you boys climb a tree?"
49089I said,"Have you?
49089My first thought was to wake the boys so I called out at the top of my voice,"Who are you?"
49089Nothing could be done but move on, but what was to be done with Robert''s body?
49089Smith saw them first and said to me,"Who is that?"
49089When I had got about ten steps away Fish said to Phelps,"Why do n''t you shoot him?"
49089Who are you?"
45568Captain, are you sure? 45568 D''ye hear that?
45568Is little Gus alive?
45568Was it possible that such happiness could be mine?
45568Where is Sam?
45568Why do n''t that man hold that gun_ properly_?
45568Why, do n''t you know? 45568 Yes, you may be a corporal, but where is your squad?"
45568Are they all well?"
45568Can the Third Corps men endure it?
45568Did we not charge to its thrilling strains?
45568Did you ever walk twenty miles in a day?
45568Do n''t you know that war is a suspension of the Ten Commandments?"
45568Had an improvident comrade devoured his three days''rations prematurely?
45568Has she seen them lately?
45568I then began to ask myself:"Would I ever again have soft bread every day?"
45568Is n''t_ that_ squad enough for you?"
45568Is there any intoxication like the joy of victory?
45568Joe held out the newly adorned arm, exclaiming,"Is not_ that_ corporal enough for you?"
45568Look at the disgraceful condition of this musket!--of what use would such a weapon be if we should be called into action?"
45568Pointing to the advancing masses, he says,--"Do you see those lines?
45568Taking it from its owner and holding it out before us all, he said sternly,--"Corporal, what sort of an example is this to set before the company?
45568The constant question in our hearts was,"What will the folks at home say about us?"
45568The voice of this spirit asked insistently,"Why do you not go to the war?"
45568The watchful major anxiously asked:"What is that?
45568They all walked slowly and wearily and if you asked one of them,"How is the battle going?"
45568Was it that, or was it the gloom of the apparently endless conflict which had entered his soul?
45568Was not martial music the soldier''s inspiration?
45568Was the sacrifice worth while?
45568We often marched day after day until we fairly lost track of time and you might hear a dialogue like the following:"Bill, what day is this?"
45568Were we to prove it once more?
45568What of the band in the day of battle?
45568Who is talking out there?"
45568Yet there was strange mystery abroad: everywhere a weird sound-- was it of sorrow or of foreboding, nature''s wail or nature''s warning?
45568You would hear one and another say:"Captain, is n''t there one for me?"
45568and the answering jeer of his comrades:"Jim, did you hear what that one said?
45568is that so?
19154A wound, I suppose?
19154Am I badly hurt, Dan?
19154Am I to go with you, sah?
19154Am dey all gone, sah?
19154And I s''pose the moon will show de way at night, massa?
19154And how came you to enter the army, Tony?
19154And how shall I know your ship?
19154And is he much hurt, sir?
19154And now you are going to be with us for three months, Vincent?
19154And now, doctor, how much am I in debt to you? 19154 And when are you thinking of getting married, Vincent?"
19154And who do you suppose all those men are?
19154And who is this officer, Lucy?
19154And wo n''t you let me pay for the man''s passage, captain? 19154 And you want to get out of the way without questions being asked, I understand?"
19154Any news?
19154Anything de matter, sah?
19154Are they all like this?
19154Are we allowed to bring a servant with us?
19154Are you awake, Marse Wingfield?
19154Are you the same officer, sir, who escaped from Elmira?
19154Are you thinking of going out to the Orangery again soon, mother?
19154Are you using that sailboat of yours at present, Harry? 19154 But I thought you had made up your mind that you would rather stop at home, Vincent?"
19154But has Petersburg fallen?
19154But how did you get through the lines? 19154 But how do they live, Dan?"
19154But how we find de York River, massa? 19154 But suppose they wo n''t work at all, even for wages, Vincent?"
19154But where are the others?
19154But why should he? 19154 By the way, do you know where his clothes were sent to?"
19154Ca n''t you do something for me, Sam Smith? 19154 Ca n''t you see he is breathing, and did you not hear him groan when I examined his side?
19154Can I see Dinah, sah?
19154Can you spare me two hours now?
19154Cucumbers to- day, sah? 19154 Did either of you girls put it away, or where can it have been stowed?"
19154Did you tell him that, now?
19154Dinah,Vincent said,"has your boy gone to bed?"
19154Do n''t you know me, aunts?
19154Do n''t you know nobody is allowed to pass through the lines?
19154Do n''t you see we are dying of curiosity?
19154Do you know what train he went by?
19154Do you remember, about a month ago, a man named Pearson being here?
19154Do you see that little black thing two miles ahead of us? 19154 Do you suppose we are going to give in to five men?
19154Do you suppose, sir,Mrs. Wingfield asked angrily,"that I am the sort of person to give shelter to runaway slaves?"
19154Do you think that boy is as foolish as he seems?
19154Do you want a meal? 19154 Doctor,"she said,"I want you to come out to see someone who is very ill.""What is the matter with him?
19154Got a neighbor''s patch handy, eh?
19154Greenbacks, I suppose?
19154Hab you brought de stuff?
19154Hallo, you, sir, what the deuce are you doing here?
19154Have I been asleep long?
19154Have you any idea where he went when he left here?
19154Have you any news for us?
19154Have you fixed upon any plan?
19154Have you got him?
19154How am dat, how am dat?
19154How are you getting on, lads? 19154 How are you, Tony?"
19154How did Jonas take his dismissal, mother?
19154How did you miss the straight road?
19154How do you think you would be able to find your way a dark night like this? 19154 How far are we from the mouth of the York River?"
19154How far is it to Porter''s?
19154How have you got on?
19154How long dis go on, you tink, sah?
19154How long will it be, doctor, do you think?
19154How shall we find our way back, Marse Vincent?
19154How you get dem?
19154I am ready to aid you in any way I can,the sheriff said when he concluded;"but the question is, where has the fellow got to?
19154I suppose that''s what you carried the clothes in?
19154I think that it will be better; and will you please call me Vincent? 19154 Is he dead, sah?"
19154Is it Tony, sah; for de Lord''s sake, is it Tony?
19154Is it about a lady?
19154Is she older than you, Vincent?
19154Is that so?
19154Is that so?
19154Is that you, Longmore? 19154 Is the general in?"
19154Is there anything else you will want? 19154 Mother,"he said,"can you put me up for a couple of days?
19154Mr. Renfrew,he said,"I want some money; can you lend it me?"
19154Not much to look at, are they? 19154 Now then, what do you want?"
19154Now which way, Vincent? 19154 Now, Dan, what is the next move?"
19154Now, Miss Kingston, which do you think is our best course? 19154 Now, Vincent, what offer do you make for the letter?
19154Now, gentlemen,the auctioneer said,"surely you are not going to let this desirable piece of property go for seven fifty?
19154Oh, that''s it, is it?
19154Plantation liquor?
19154Sergeant Newson, am you dere?
19154Shall I go, sah?
19154Shall we make some broth for him?
19154Shall we take de horses, sah?
19154To wait for what?
19154Treachery?
19154Union or not Union, I mean to talk it, and I want to know who is going to prevent me?
19154Want to get through the lines, eh?
19154Was Lee''s force all engaged yesterday?
19154Was he always alone, or did he have many people here to see him?
19154Was he, sir? 19154 Well, Dan, have you obtained any news?"
19154Well, Dan, what''s your news?
19154Well, what is it, sergeant?
19154Well, what is the piece of news?
19154What am I to do, Chloe?
19154What am you going to do, Miss Lucy?
19154What are they going to do that for?
19154What are you doing here?
19154What are you laughing at?
19154What are you spying about here?
19154What do you say, Chloe?
19154What do you want for them, boy?
19154What do you want, there?
19154What for?
19154What had we better do, Vincent?
19154What has happened, nurse?
19154What have you been doing to that fellow Andrew Jackson?
19154What is it, Chloe?
19154What is it, Dan?
19154What is it, stranger?
19154What is the thing? 19154 What is the time, mother?"
19154What is your name, sir, and who are you?
19154What is your news, Dan?
19154What name?
19154What on earth do you want money for? 19154 What on earth do you want to buy a slave for?
19154What ought we to ask for these?
19154What plantation liquor like?
19154What sort of thing?
19154What treachery has he been guilty of? 19154 What will you do?"
19154What''s it like?
19154What''s the matter, Dan? 19154 What, have n''t you got one now?"
19154When did he come to you?
19154When do you leave for the front, Captain Wingfield?
19154When we going on, sah?
19154Where are the girls, mother?
19154Where are you going to, and where have you come from?
19154Where do you come from, lad?
19154Where have we got to now, sah?
19154Where is he now?
19154Where is it, mother?
19154Who are you, sir?
19154Who is it?
19154Who told dem dat?
19154Why did n''t he come on board before I started?
19154Why did you not bring him in?
19154Why did you not cross by the bridge?
19154Why did you not tell me that you wanted the money, instead of going to Mr. Renfrew? 19154 Why should you not stay here till then, Mr. Wingfield?
19154Why you not leave dem black clothes behind, sah? 19154 Why, Vincent, where have you been all this time?"
19154Will anyone else make an offer?
19154Will you take him?
19154Will you take your letter again?
19154You are a Confederate?
19154You are not going away again to- night, Vincent, surely?
19154You belong to the cavalry?
19154You ca n''t find out where his luggage was checked for?
19154You did n''t s''pose I was coming along shouting and whistling, Sergeant Newson? 19154 You do n''t know where he went to from here, I suppose?"
19154You do n''t know whether he has any friends anywhere in the Confederacy to whom he would be likely to go?
19154You do n''t think my patient would ill- treat his slaves?
19154You do not think there is any probability of the ultimate success of our cause?
19154You have got promoted?
19154You have got your six- shooters with you, I suppose, because you are likely as not to have to use them?
19154You have no idea, I suppose, Dan, as to which way he is likely to go?
19154You know what the consequence would be if you were caught?
19154You mean he is a negro?
19154You recommember taking some tings to station for a tall man with gray goatee, Pomp?
19154Am I not wounded?"
19154And it was you who beat that man and threw his revolver out of the window?
19154And now, what can I do for you, sir?
19154And what should he say now when the negro wrote to claim her?
19154And you, Lucy, do you think you could care for me?"
19154Are you going to get rid of it at Camden to- morrow?"
19154Are you one of them?"
19154At last Vincent, who had been half an hour without speaking said:"Are you sorry our journey is just over, Lucy?"
19154Been fighting-- eh?
19154Besides, what can I do in a town?
19154But how in the world did you two manage to travel alone all that distance and get through the Federal lines?"
19154But is not your brother here?
19154But, in the first place, which line do you mean to take?"
19154Ca n''t you manage to bring me a little here?"
19154Can you let me have the money?
19154Did I not hear a few months since that you bought Wildfire?
19154Did anyone ever see such a bare place?"
19154Did you ever tell the people you lodged with anything about the disguise?"
19154Do n''t you think so, Ada?"
19154Do you know the plantation of Mr. Furniss, on the Pamunky, near Coal Harbor?"
19154Do you know what has become of him since he left you?"
19154Do you mean to keep it here or move it higher up the river, where it would be more handy for you, perhaps?"
19154Do you not know that I love you?"
19154Do you want to buy any?
19154Does n''t ye want any fowl?"
19154Ef dose slave- hunters ca n''t find people in de swamps what chance you tink dose soldiers have?
19154Has no one got a full canteen?"
19154Has your servant got any warm water?"
19154Have we your permission to see this woman and to question her?"
19154Have you a rifle, Captain Wingfield?"
19154Have you got proof of what you say?"
19154Have you heard of any more of my old chums being killed since I was taken prisoner at Antietam?"
19154Have you seen him?"
19154How about the others?"
19154How am do prisoner?"
19154How are all the old house hands, and how is Dinah?
19154How are they getting on?
19154How did you manage it?"
19154How does it feel now?"
19154How far have you brought this dispatch, sir?"
19154How far is it away?"
19154How far is it from the next bridge on the south, and are there any Federal troops there?"
19154How long ago did this happen?"
19154How much do you want?"
19154How was that?"
19154However, as to the boat, can you give me instructions where to find it, and is it light enough for two men to carry?"
19154I suppose it''s in the water?"
19154I suppose she could get another?"
19154I suppose you did n''t keep it many days?"
19154I suppose, doctor, I can be moved at once?"
19154If I do not come back to- night, can you find anyone you can trust to take this piece of paper round to Richmond?
19154In that case how would he manage to approach him, and what means would he use to direct the attention of the sentries in another direction?
19154Is anything the matter?"
19154Is there anything I can do?"
19154Me say to him,''Can you read?''
19154Mrs. Wingfield exclaimed, starting up,"what has happened to you?
19154My dear child, where have you sprung from?"
19154Now gentlemen, what shall we say for this desirable lot?"
19154Now is there anything I can do?
19154Now, Maria, who has got boats that have n''t been taken?"
19154Now, is there anything as I can do to help you?"
19154Now, mister, may I ask where you have come from and where you are going to?"
19154Now, sir, what do you think of the lookout?"
19154Now, what are your ideas as to the roads?"
19154Now, where are the clothes?"
19154Pretty well, I hope?"
19154Shall we, Chloe?"
19154She has told you, I hope, that she has been good enough to promise to be my wife some day?"
19154So you fought under Jackson and Stuart, did you?
19154So you managed to cheat the Yankees altogether?"
19154Tell him I will see that his wife does not get into bad hands, I suppose they will sell the baby too?"
19154The first question is-- where are we to get a boat?
19154The question is how badly he is hurt, and what can be done for him?
19154The question is, What is to become of you?
19154The question is-- how are we to get across?"
19154Upon what day do you sail?"
19154Vincent paid him the amount, saying carelessly,"I think I have plenty of time to catch the train for the East?"
19154Vincent''s question,"Dinah, where are you?"
19154Well, do you feel ready for your breakfast?"
19154Well, have you done now?"
19154Well, what success have you had?"
19154What are you dressed up like that for?
19154What are you going to do with him if you get him free?
19154What are you looking at?"
19154What be they a- doing?
19154What can I do for you?"
19154What can I gib you?"
19154What day do you say they got here?"
19154What dey say to you?
19154What do you say?
19154What does he say, ma''am?
19154What good take dem wid you?"
19154What hab you to do wid one side or de oder?"
19154What has happened?"
19154What have you got left, Dan?"
19154What have you got to say to the charge?"
19154What is this?"
19154What made you take those two darkies along with you?
19154What money have you left?"
19154What on earth can have influenced you to act in such a mad- brained way?"
19154What on earth have you done that for?"
19154What shall you do now?"
19154What sort of lines are they?
19154What sort of man is Johnston?
19154What was de man like?"
19154What was de name of dat man, sah, you was speaking of?"
19154What would you have done, Vincent?"
19154What you want ob dem?
19154What''s the matter between you?"
19154When did you arrive from the front?"
19154When will you start?"
19154Where does your mother live, boy?"
19154Where have you sprung from, and when did you arrive?"
19154Where you come from?"
19154Whereber you get dat spirit?"
19154Which do you advise?"
19154Who could have dreamed, when I got up in the morning, that all this would take place before night?
19154Who is she, and what is she like?"
19154Who would you like to take?"
19154Wildfire was not hurt, I hope?"
19154Will de compass tell you dat?"
19154Will you come and breakfast with me at half- past eight?
19154Will you give me an order for my horse and myself to be taken?"
19154Will you kindly tell me what is de address writ on this paper?"
19154Will you please tell me on what day he left?"
19154Wingfield?"
19154You are not a pair of runaway lovers, are you?"
19154You are not hurt, massa?"
19154You are sure you have got everything of value, Miss Kingston?"
19154You do n''t know anything about the name of the place?"
19154You know the place pretty well, do n''t you, Tony?"
19154You like to see him, sah?"
19154You see it yourself, do n''t you, mother?"
19154You will not leave before that, will you?"
19154You will send a line to the old people, major, wo n''t you, and say I died doing my duty?
19154and if you want it why do n''t you ask your mother for it?
19154and they are after you?"
19154and what is it you want me for?"
19154are we for duty, captain?"
19154did you discover at last that he was a scamp?"
19154or is it him or her?"
19154the woman exclaimed;"what do you want to do that for?"
18579After we get on board of the Bellevite, what do you suppose she will do?
18579All right, so far; but do you understand what you are not to do?
18579Am I to go on shore, father?
18579And he told you about the engine?
18579And without asking any questions?
18579And you came on board for the purpose of buying her?
18579And you met my father there?
18579Are you coming back to- day, major?
18579Are you sure that one of them is my brother?
18579Are you the pilot of the steamer? 18579 Assistance for what?"
18579Beeks has the wheel, I believe?
18579But am I to leave this house, where I have been for six months, without saying good- by to uncle or aunt?
18579But do n''t you think the trouble will be settled in some way, Horatio?
18579But do n''t you want to go into the army?
18579But do you understand what the Bellevite is doing, Christy?
18579But how can that be when my name is Percy Pierson?
18579But how did you get by the forts? 18579 But how in the world did you get here, Horatio, when every public conveyance that leads into the South has been discontinued?"
18579But what can be done?
18579But what in the world do you expect to do with her down here?
18579But what is the condition, Homer?
18579But when did the Bellevite leave the wharf?
18579But where is Florry, father?
18579But why does she hoist a signal of distress?
18579But you saw Colonel Passford?
18579But you will hear me a moment or two, will you not, Horatio?
18579Ca n''t you do as much as that for me, Lindy?
18579Ca n''t you make some sort of a signal to him, Christy?
18579Can I see her before the war is over, papa?
18579Can you tell me who is in command of Fort Gaines at the present time?
18579Captain Breaker, may I ask you to present me to the owner of the steamer?
18579Captain Horatio Passford, who stands there?
18579Did Spikeley agree to run the engine?
18579Did he say so?
18579Did n''t I just tell you that was my name?
18579Did n''t he tell you who he was?
18579Did n''t you hear that cannon- shot that struck her just now?
18579Did n''t you notice that? 18579 Did n''t you notice the one hundred and twenty pounder in the waist?
18579Did you fire the field- piece on the deck below?
18579Did you put your name down?
18579Did you take any lessons of the cook on board of the Bellevite, Christy?
18579Did your brother ask you any thing about the Bellevite, Percy?
18579Do I understand that you propose to do this, Homer?
18579Do I want to go back? 18579 Do n''t I mind the bells, Major Pierson?"
18579Do n''t it strike you that you are indulging in rather sharp practice?
18579Do n''t you know who the other one is?
18579Do n''t you see that she is going along the same as ever? 18579 Do n''t you think I had better go below with you, so as to make a sure thing with the engineer?"
18579Do n''t you think I want to see mamma? 18579 Do n''t you, indeed?"
18579Do you feel able to get up, captain?
18579Do you know any thing about that steamer over there, Christy?
18579Do you know whether or not Captain Passford is on board of her?
18579Do you mean that schooner?
18579Do you mean that she has left the wharf?
18579Do you mean to insult me, sir?
18579Do you mean to question my veracity?
18579Do you mean to say that Percy is in charge of this steamer, Captain Breaker?
18579Do you mean to say that_ you_ are taking her in, Percy?
18579Do you say that the Bellevite is armed, Horatio?
18579Do you think I can?
18579Do you think she will be in any actual danger, Horatio?
18579Do you think so, sir?
18579Do you think so?
18579Do you think you are in any danger here?
18579Do you understand me, Spikeley?
18579Does it relate to my daughter, sir?
18579Get out of the window, papa?
18579Has he been out all night on the steamer?
18579Has the shot ruined the vessel?
18579Have you any doubt about him?
18579Have you been hit, Percy?
18579Have you been near her?
18579How I stand? 18579 How can I know him?"
18579How do you expect to do it?
18579How do you find yourself this morning? 18579 How do you find yourself, Captain Pecklar?"
18579How do you get on, Captain Pecklar?
18579How do you know I am not?
18579How is Captain Pecklar?
18579How is it possible for the Yankee Government to station ships- of- war on the coast of the Southern States? 18579 How is the sick man, Percy?"
18579How many guns does the steamer carry?
18579I made a regular study of the engine, in connection with physics, and Paul--"Paul?
18579I suppose we are all right now, are we not, Christy?
18579I suppose you do n''t claim me as a deserter, do you?
18579I told you to ring the gong, did n''t I?
18579I will tell you in a moment.--Can you tell me, Dallberg, where the Bellevite is at the present time?
18579If the major has not gone for the doctor, what has he gone for?
18579If you are a Southern gentleman, as I heard you say you were, do n''t you think it is a little irregular to be hid in the ward- room of this vessel?
18579In sympathy with it? 18579 Is Florry worse?
18579Is Percy still on board, Breaker?
18579Is it fully high tide now, Breaker?
18579Is it really war, sir?
18579Is n''t London farther north than any Southern State?
18579Is she a Federal vessel?
18579Is she here, papa?
18579Is that all?
18579Is that so? 18579 Is that the captain of the Leopard?"
18579Is that the way you steer the boat, Percy?
18579Is that you, Christy?
18579Is that you, Spottswood?
18579Is your master at home, Pedro?
18579May I ask how you did intend to proceed?
18579May I ask what you mean by the enemy, Major Pierson?
18579May I ask where this vessel came from?
18579May I ask you for a few minutes in private, Captain Passford?
18579North- east?
18579Now may I ask who owns her?
18579Now, what do you know of the steamer astern of us?
18579Pack her trunk? 18579 Pray how old are you, my friend?"
18579See here, my jolly high- flyer, who told you my name?
18579Shall I be all alone on board?
18579Spottswood, how is the captain?
18579That is all; what more do you desire?
18579That would put the craft you mean on the shore, would n''t it?
18579The Dauphine?
18579Then Captain Passford has left the mansion?
18579Then the owner of the Bellevite is on the other side?
18579Then we shall have them all at Bonnydale this summer?
18579Then you are not in sympathy with the secession movement?
18579Then you do n''t like him, do you?
18579Then, it has not occurred to you that he misses you, and do n''t like to leave without you?
18579Then, why do you arrest me?
18579Then, you have been fooling me?
18579Unfair? 18579 Was it ever granted?"
18579Was it necessary for a major and a lieutenant, with six soldiers, to go for the doctor, when five at the most could have done it better? 18579 Was she at anchor?"
18579Well, Percy, how goes it now?
18579Well, what did Colonel Passford say about him?
18579Well, what did he say?
18579Well, what have you been about, Dallberg?
18579Well, what is he about?
18579Well, what is he after?
18579Well, which one do you ring to start her?
18579What am I to do now?
18579What am I to do?
18579What am I to steer for now? 18579 What are you about, sir?"
18579What are you doing here?
18579What are you go''n to do?
18579What are you going to do after you have started the engine?
18579What are you going to do down there?
18579What are you going to do with me?
18579What are you going to do with that, Christy?
18579What are you going to do, then?
18579What boat is it, Pecklar?
18579What could I do when father told me not to go to the war?
18579What could you do? 18579 What did you say your name was?
18579What did you tell me your name was Percy Pierson for?
18579What do you mean by calling each other by the same name?
18579What do you mean by that?
18579What do you mean by war, Horatio?
18579What do you mean, my friend?
18579What do you propose to do, Major Pierson?
18579What do you think she intends to do?
18579What do you want to know for?
18579What does he want to stop the engine for?
18579What does that mean, Christy?
18579What does that mean?
18579What does that mean?
18579What does that mean?
18579What further do you desire to know in regard to her?
18579What good is the chart without a man that knows how to steer a steamer?
18579What has happened on board of her?
18579What has it stopped for?
18579What have you been telling this young fellow?
18579What have you done with your men, Captain Pecklar?
18579What in the world has happened to overcome you in this manner, for I never saw you so moved before?
18579What is it, Horatio?
18579What is it, sir?
18579What is she out here for?
18579What is that for, to make her go faster?
18579What is the matter now?
18579What is the matter with that engineer?
18579What is the matter, Horatio?
18579What is the matter, Horatio?
18579What is the matter, papa?
18579What is the reason I wo n''t?
18579What is the reason she do n''t fire upon the Bellevite?
18579What is your brother going to do, Percy? 18579 What is your name, then?"
18579What is your opinion?
18579What kind of a position do you desire?
18579What makes you look at me so, papa? 18579 What makes you think he is?"
18579What makes you think it is she?
18579What more is there? 18579 What of her?"
18579What shall I say to the captain of that boat?
18579What shall we do with this tug?
18579What sort of a game are you trying to play off on me? 18579 What speed did you get out of her on the trial trip?"
18579What steamer is that?
18579What steamer is that?
18579What was the matter?
18579What was the use of ringing it when I did?
18579What was the use of ringing it when you were in the pilot- house?
18579What wo n''t do?
18579What''s that for, Captain Passford?
18579What''s that to you, youngster?
18579What''s that?
18579What''s that?
18579Where are you from?
18579Where are your papers, sir?
18579Where did you learn that, Major Pierson?
18579Where do you put them all?
18579Where do you think we are likely to overhaul him?
18579Where in the world are you going to see him before you get on shore?
18579Where is Christy?
18579Where is she going, Christy?
18579Where is your father?
18579Where is your room, Florry?
18579Where?
18579Which is that? 18579 Which is the bell, Christy?"
18579Which section?
18579Who gave you your orders?
18579Who is that man, Christy?
18579Who is the agent?
18579Why did n''t you say so before?
18579Why did n''t you say so, then? 18579 Why do n''t you go into the army, if your brother is so anxious about it, Percy?"
18579Why do you think she is in distress, Christy?
18579Why have you come to anchor here, Horatio?
18579Why is it a funny question?
18579Why not? 18579 Why two?"
18579Will you tell me what steamer that is, where she is bound, and what she is here for?
18579Wo n''t you go over with me? 18579 You a sailor?
18579You certainly came from Nassau?
18579You do?
18579You have adopted it so quick?
18579You remember that English brig which was wrecked on Mills Breaker, while we were at Hamilton?
18579You were not? 18579 You will allow her to be used in subduing a free people?
18579Am I a villain, a poltroon, who will desert his country in the hour of her greatest need?
18579Any better?"
18579But have they gone?"
18579But how happens Percy to be with you in the tug?"
18579But my father would not let me, and what could I do?"
18579But perhaps you will be willing to give me your name?"
18579But, Christy, have you tried to get a look over beyond the Bellevite?"
18579By the way, how many have you under your command there?"
18579CHAPTER XXIII THE EXPEDITION FROM THE LEOPARD"What is the matter now?"
18579Dashington?"
18579Did I understand you aright?"
18579Did n''t you come from that steamer over there?"
18579Do n''t you know the points of the compass?"
18579Do you know how he stands, Horatio?"
18579Do you see the Bellevite?"
18579Do you see them?"
18579Do you think I would bring a vessel into this bay if she were not all right?"
18579Do you think you can really keep my brother from taking me to the fort?"
18579Do you think you can steer the Leopard, Percy?"
18579Do you understand that?"
18579Do you want to go back to Bonnydale, Florry?"
18579Have you been hit, Christy?"
18579How does the engine work?"
18579Is the steamer armed?"
18579Is there any thing surprising about that?"
18579Let me see, we were speaking just now, were we not?"
18579Now, the question is, where is she going then?"
18579Of course, being a private yacht, she is not armed?"
18579Passford?"
18579Passford?"
18579Percy?"
18579Percy?"
18579Percy?"
18579Percy?"
18579Percy?"
18579Pierson?"
18579Pierson?"
18579Pierson?"
18579Shall I make her follow the Bellevite?"
18579Shall we give them another shot?
18579Spikeley?"
18579That''s another fellow?"
18579The captain had left the house, and his daughter went with him?"
18579Vapoor?"
18579Were you ever there?"
18579What do you intend to do, Christy?"
18579What do you mean by that?"
18579What do you see over there?"
18579What do you think, Christy?
18579What good will it do to ring the bell while you are in the pilot- house, Christy?"
18579What have I done?
18579What have you done?"
18579What is the condition on which you will do this?
18579What is yours?"
18579What shall I do?"
18579What?
18579Where are we going now?"
18579Where did she come from before that?"
18579Where is Major Pierson?"
18579Where is your brother now?"
18579Which is it?"
18579Who told you my name, if you please?"
18579Why are you in such a hurry?"
18579Why do n''t you apply for the position of commander of her?"
18579You really want to go home?"
18579[ Illustration:"You a Sailor?"
51063And what if some contagion should break out among them, like smouldering fire in a haystack?
51063But how to do this with troops confined within the narrow quarters of a ship?
51063But what if the sea should grow yet fiercer and heavier, and buffet her with redoubled energy till she is maimed or exhausted?
51063But where was the fleet?
51063Or were the railroad officials in sympathy with secession, and purposely hampering our movements by pretended friendship and false excuses?
51063Was our own march to be obstructed at the outset by a rebellious city, standing like a fortress across the route?
51063Were the batteries silenced, and the game played out and lost?
51063Were these old sea- dogs, after coming six hundred miles on purpose, to be delayed in their work by a little rough water?
51063What could be the cause of such delay, when everything demanded promptitude and celerity?
51063What did it mean?
51063Who could tell what might be happening even then at the national capital?
53882What was to be done?
53882Where in the world did they hide, young ladies?"
43641Are you not sorry, my son, that you entered the army, and left home to suffer all this?
43641Are you the Bucktails?
43641Boys, do you see him? 43641 Can I obtain dinner for myself, and oats for my horse?"
43641Colonel, you expose yourself, and why should n''t I?
43641Do n''t you find it rather hard times?
43641Do you know that we think you can not recover?
43641Do you think there will be a battle to- day?
43641Do you want Kentucky?
43641Do you want Missouri?
43641How are your men, Colonel?
43641How many men had Magruder at that time?
43641How much business do you do a year, uncle?
43641How old is your master?
43641How will you settle?
43641I should like to know what you are down here for, stealing our chickens and niggers?
43641In such weather?
43641Is he supported by Sumner?
43641O mother, how can you ask me such a question as that? 43641 Then you have seen the Southern army?"
43641They came pretty near it as it was, did they not?
43641Walker''s division, you say, was n''t very well clothed?
43641Was he a good master?
43641What belongs to you?
43641What will you do with Washington?
43641What would you have done, if you had not been ordered back?
43641What''s up?
43641Where are you going?
43641Where is my regiment?
43641Who are you?
43641Who is engaged at the front?
43641Why are you retreating so soon?
43641Why did you become a secessionist then?
43641Why do n''t they go faster?
43641Why do you want to get to the North?
43641Will you have the camp searched, Colonel?
43641You have some money, have n''t you, uncle?
43641You want Maryland?
43641You want all of Virginia?
43641And lingers a gloomy shade round them, That only my presence can light?
43641Are joys less invitingly welcome, And pleasures less bright than before, Because one is missed from the circle,-- Because I am with them no more?"
43641Are you not over- cautious when you assume, that you can not do what the enemy is constantly doing?
43641Change positions with the enemy, and think you not, he would break your communications with Richmond within the next twenty- four hours?
43641Could not these forces cut off his retreat to Richmond?
43641Do you see that fence over there?"
43641Everybody looks depressed, and the cause of the Confederacy looks drooping and sinking; but if God is with us, who can be against us?
43641How many were there of each class?"
43641How many wooden nutmegs are there?"
43641I saw from his pulse that he had but a few moments to live, and said to him,"''Joseph, are you willing and ready to die?
43641In the full conviction of immortality he added,''What is death, mother?
43641Missed at home?
43641Not satisfied with the day''s work?"
43641Of what avail all of our unceasing and exhaustless endurance?
43641Of what avail had it been to us that our best blood had flowed for six long days?
43641Shall Porter be put in?
43641Should you not claim to be, at least, his equal in power, and act upon the claim?
43641Strange, was n''t it?"
43641The mind asks itself, How will those who come after me look upon the work of to- day?
43641There was a momentary silence, and then the question,"Who are you?"
43641They sung the old song:--"Do they miss me at home-- do they miss me At morning, at noon, or at night?
43641They will be calm and deliberate judges in the case; and to what law, to what one overt act, can you point on which to rest the plea of justification?
43641What do you want of him?"
43641What interest of the South has been invaded?
43641What is now left us?
43641What is the matter, Franks?
43641What justice has been denied, or what claim founded in justice and right has been withheld?
43641What right has the North assailed?
43641Who told you to turn off here, I should like to know?"
43641Will Hooker''s men join the drifting current?
43641how so?"
43641is this the reward I deserve for all the sacrifices I have made, the battles I have fought, and the agony I have endured from my wounds?
45609Are not two more than one? 45609 If the Union can no longer protect us,"they asked themselves,"why should we remain parties to that compact?
45609And have not we the two to our enemy''s one?
45609Are we, after all, only savages under a thin veneer of pretended civilization?
45609At the North no less than at the South men anxiously asked of themselves and of their neighbors"What is going to happen?"
45609But how much did this resolution signify?
45609Did Halleck?
45609For who was this$ 800 Galena clerk?
45609Has the reader any conception of what it means to have an eleven- inch shell penetrate the side of a vessel and explode within its wooden walls?
45609If so with what boundaries?
45609If the contract was to be repudiated on the one hand, why, they asked, should it not be equally repudiated on the other?
45609If we can not be members of the Union upon equal terms with other members of the Union, why should we continue to be members of the Union at all?"
45609Is there any wonder that McClellan found it necessary to devote many months to the task of creating an effective army out of such stuff as this?
45609Should California be admitted to the Union as a free state?
45609Should that part be open to slavery?
45609The Nation having acquired the vast Louisiana territory, invitingly fruitful as it was, the question arose"What shall we do with it?"
45609The question at once arose, What shall we do with these new lands?
45609The question remained"will they come?"
45609What right had he to plan campaigns and carry them to a success that reflected no credit upon his regular army military superiors?
45609What right had he to the credit of any victories he had been graciously permitted to win?
45609Who was Grant, anyhow?
45609Why should General Halleck permit this interloper Grant to go on winning victories?
45609Why should McDowell, who had remained in the regular army, give place to Sherman, who had resigned to become a professor in a school?
45609Why should it continue to exist at the dawn of the twentieth?
45609Why should this hideous wrong have existed after the middle of the nineteenth century?
45558And where are the soldiers of General Price?
45558Are you a Confederate soldier?
45558Brasher, did you know that those blankets you loaned me last night were filled with lice?
45558How is it, General, that I see so many Union soldiers out here?
45558What are you, then?
45558What''s up?
45558Where is your master now?
45558Who is General Mitchell, and where is he?
45558Why not move them to the assistance of our brave boys on the left?
45558Why, no; were they?
45558Another matter of discussion is,"where to, next?"
45558As he fell, one of his officers sprang to his side, and inquired anxiously:"Are you hurt?"
45558But here there was no other wood convenient, and the question with the boys was, how are we to make coffee?
45558Can aliens make treaties easier than friends can make laws?
45558Can any one satisfactorily explain the reason why our soldiers are restricted to a certain kind of food?
45558Can treaties be more faithfully enforced between aliens, than laws can among friends?
45558G-- d d-- n you, do n''t you know sir, you should furnish me the exact number?"
45558General Nelson then turned to Governor Morton and said:"By G-- d, did you come here also to insult me?"
45558General Nelson-- violently to the bystanders--"Did you hear the d-- d rascal insult me?"
45558General Nelson--"How many men have you?"
45558How is it that I am here?
45558How was the river to be crossed?
45558In reply to"who comes there?"
45558Is it possible, then, to make that intercourse more advantageous or more satisfactory after separation than before?
45558Is the question an unreasonable one?
45558Is this the hospital?
45558Knowing all these things, why should they not anticipate a speedy termination to their soldier life, and enjoy in anticipation home society once more?
45558Many were the inquiries,"Why are all these thousands of soldiers kept here idle all the day so near the battle- field?"
45558Never again look upon the bright and cheerful faces of those I left behind me there?
45558Now, then, what is the daily occupation of the inhabitants of these tents?
45558Say, what is the meaning of this?
45558Shall I never more behold it?
45558That fellow in the dress of a Union soldier, what is he doing?
45558The question is frequently discussed in camp,"Why are we not better provided for-- why are we compelled to live on hard bread and old bacon?"
45558The question now arose,"how is the river to be crossed?"
45558To lay in the shade here, and have slaves to wait on you-- what more could be desired?
45558Undaunted, and ready for the battle as ever, they inquired:"Who will be our leader?"
45558What does this mean?
45558What is that fellow doing?
45558Why do we not get it?
45558Why not bury it with him?
45558Why not provide the diet as a preventive to the disease?
45558Why remain idle so long?
45558Why should they not?
45558Why was General Fremont removed from the command at this most auspicious moment?
45558Why was it that General Buell did not reinforce that bravely defended garrison?
45558Why was this retrograde movement to be made?
45558Will it be believed?
45558are they going to cut_ all_ our trees?''"
45558said the planter,"and how came you here?"
45558where the hell am I?
34973A secret organization?
34973Ah, a younger brother?
34973Ah?
34973All right,said Webster, immeasurably relieved,"but how do we manage it?"
34973An''dat young leddy am gwine to meet somebody, mebbe her husband, at de landin''?
34973An''you cum frum Richmun''dis mo''nin?
34973And if I am,said Scobell,"what do you want?"
34973And what if he is in the Federal army? 34973 Are you quite sure of that?"
34973Are you still keeping mum?
34973Are you subject to fits?
34973Are your names Lewis and Scully?
34973Arms? 34973 Bill Zigler, what are you doing here?
34973But about the authorities--I asked--"is there no danger to be apprehended from them?"
34973But how can that interfere with the election?
34973But what can we do?
34973But what crime has the stranger committed, that he should thus be taken into custody?
34973But where are you from?
34973But,said I,"have all the plans been matured, and are there no fears of failure?
34973Captain,said Mr. Scott, addressing him,"will you give me the particulars of the arrest of this man?"
34973Did he ask anything about me?
34973Did you come from the Yanks?
34973Did you ever see it done?
34973Did you see any one last evening who is inimical to the cause of the government?
34973Did you speak to me, sir?
34973Do n''t offer to touch me, Dan McCowan, or I''ll----"What would you do, now?
34973Do you know anything about the hotels there?
34973Do you know anything of McClellan''s plans for an advance?
34973Do you know this man, and that he is all right?
34973Do you know whether your mistress writes to any one besides her husband?
34973Do you suppose,added Webster,"that Kentucky will allow the Northern army to march through the State without showing fight?"
34973Drivers? 34973 Great G-- d, Webster, how did you manage to get away from the Yanks?"
34973Have the objects of the league been fully explained to him?
34973Have you arms enough for all of them?
34973Have you no more sense than to reveal yourself_ here_? 34973 His name?"
34973How did that occur?
34973How did you get through the Union lines?
34973How did you manage to get inside the camp?
34973How do the men who operate the machine manage to attach the magazine to the vessel they design to destroy?
34973How do you account for General McClellan''s''masterly inactivity''during all these months that his army lay at Washington?
34973How far is it to Wilson''s landing?
34973How often do you meet?
34973I am ready now, Major,said he, cheerily,"have you any further commands?"
34973I am, eh?
34973I can readily believe that,said the detective,"but if it is so dangerous here, how am I going to deliver these letters?"
34973I dun spose you''s on de way to Yu''ktown?
34973I thought you would come to your senses at last; but when did you come down here?
34973I understand; but who is this John Hart you mention-- can we trust him?
34973I want to telegraph to the_ Herald_,said the second correspondent--"what is the use of obtaining news if we can not utilize it?"
34973In Washington, sah,replied Uncle Gallus;"don''you remember you saw me at Majah Allen''s, when I was dah libin wid Missus Morton?"
34973Is Mrs. Morton in communication with her husband?
34973Is it a conspiracy to betray me into the hands of the enemy?
34973Is it a success?
34973Is n''t that a little severe?
34973Is the landlady all right?
34973Is there a new sensation this morning?
34973Is there no way of getting over about here at all?
34973Is your name John Hart?
34973It does not look very favorable for my reaching Washington to- morrow, then?
34973May I ask where you are from?
34973May I see him before he is taken away?
34973Names?
34973No doubt of it, Doctor; but how do you expect to get two hours''notice?
34973No, I do n''t remember you,said Webster, determined to ascertain whether the old darky did know him;"where have you ever seen me?"
34973Now,he exclaimed, turning to Curtis,"What is your business?
34973On the word and honor of a gentleman?
34973See heah now, is yure name John?
34973Severe? 34973 So soon?"
34973So you want me to take you to Fredericksburg, do you?
34973The gentleman is up- stairs in my room,said Earl;"will you go up now and see him?"
34973Then you do n''t want to be free?
34973This is bad news about Lewis and Scully, is n''t it?
34973This is infamous,exclaimed Webster;"what can Winder mean by arresting this woman, and what am I charged with that renders your orders necessary?"
34973To go where?
34973Under arrest? 34973 Was he an officer?"
34973Was the landlady looking for us too?
34973We heard you had been taken prisoner-- how did you get out so soon?
34973Well, John,said Webster at length,"what is the prospect for crossing the river to- night?"
34973Well, then,smiled Webster,"I suppose I will have to wait his pleasure; but ca n''t a fellow get a little whisky and cigar?
34973Well, uncle,said Webster, as the old man caught up to him--"did you speak to me?"
34973Well, what is it, Miss Harcourt? 34973 Well,"said Webster,"will you be kind enough to send for Mr. McPhail, and ask him to telegraph to Major Allen, and inquire if Tim is all right?"
34973What Major Allen is that?
34973What crime have I committed?
34973What do you desire?
34973What do you mean, sir?
34973What do you mean, you scoundrel?
34973What do you mean?
34973What does this mean?
34973What for?
34973What has become of your assailants?
34973What has happened to frighten you so?
34973What have you got to sell?
34973What is his name?
34973What is it?
34973What is the matter, Jem?
34973What is the matter?
34973What is your business?
34973What is your hour of meeting?
34973What is your name?
34973What is your name?
34973What is your name?
34973What is your native State, Uncle Gallus?
34973What is your society called?
34973What makes you think so?
34973What makes you think that?
34973What regiment does he belong to?
34973What''s this?
34973When did this occur?
34973When do you propose to let us out?
34973When will your next meeting be held?
34973Where do you live?
34973Where from?
34973Where to?
34973Which is which?
34973Which way is he going?
34973Who do you want to see there?
34973Who is he?
34973Who is it?
34973Who should assume the task of liberating the nation of the foul presence of the abolitionist leader?
34973Whom have you here?
34973Why could n''t I go, too?
34973Why did n''t you tell them that, when they called out to you before?
34973Why do you think so?
34973Why do you think so?
34973Why, Mr. Pinkerton, what are you doing here?
34973Why, Webster, how do you do? 34973 Why, Webster, is that you?"
34973Why,I interrupted,"what can they know about Lincoln?"
34973Why,replied his friend, laughingly,"have n''t you heard of the subterranean headquarters?"
34973Yes,said Scobell;"but how do you know these things?
34973You are a Northern man?
34973You are going to Humboldt?
34973You do n''t tell me that you took the oath, Sam?
34973You have been a slave all your life, I understand?
34973You have news for me,said Webster, impatiently;"what is it?"
34973You l- licked''em like the d- d- devil at Williamsburgh, d- d- d- didn''t you?
34973You will not tell him what you know of Webster, and his connection with this matter, will you?
34973You''ll come back?
34973You''se de man dat I''dressed, sah-- done you know me?
34973Your age and weight?
34973Your mistress intends to return to the South, then?
34973Your name is Gallus?
34973After a few minutes a window was raised and a voice inquired angrily:"Who are you, and what do you want?"
34973After waiting a short time, and hearing no response, he added:"What''d you say?
34973Ai n''t them your s- s- sentiments?"
34973And another voice, further away, cried:"Who''s there?"
34973And who is the man who arrested him?"
34973As he entered the cell where Webster was reclining upon his couch, he roughly accosted him:"Webster you have sent for me; what is it that you desire?"
34973At these words, Scobell stepped forward and said in a low voice:"Do you belong to the League?"
34973At this point the question might be asked, whose plan should have been followed?
34973Bingerdon?"
34973But how will I get there?"
34973Can you attend to this?"
34973Catching the drift of the conversation, Webster stepped forward and said:"I beg pardon, sir; will you permit me to ask one question?"
34973Could it be that they were Webster and his faithful attendant Mrs. Lawton?
34973Did he suspect them?
34973Do n''t you see I''m rounding to?"
34973Do n''t you see that in another moment you''ll have us beached?"
34973Do you know gentlemen, I suspected you were all wrong from the start, and you were not keen enough to impose your story upon me?
34973Do you know where he is?"
34973Do you think you can manage it for them?"
34973Feeling alarmed lest the helmsman was not attending to his duty, my son yelled:"Captain, what under heaven do you mean?
34973Filled with curiosity as to the identity of the man, Webster carelessly observed to the landlord:"That fellow seemed a little nervous, does n''t he?"
34973Has anybody been here to see you?"
34973Have you any objections?"
34973Have you heard the news?"
34973How am I going to do it?"
34973How to intercede in their behalf?
34973How, therefore, to arrange his plans, so that these papers would be intercepted and the ambassador detained without arousing his suspicion?
34973I am glad to see you; when did you get back to Baltimore?"
34973Immediately a guarded voice on the inside was heard:"Are you white?"
34973Linkum am a- comin''by''m- bye; Did you ebber see a niggah gal dancin''in de moonlight?
34973May I ask your name, sir?"
34973On nearing Gloucester Point, they were hailed by a sentinel, with the usual challenge:"Who comes there?"
34973On one of these occasions Governor Owens eyed his companion sharply a moment, and then asked:"Can I trust you, sir?"
34973Presently he heard a shrill whistle from his conductor, which was replied to from above with the query:"Who comes?"
34973Raising himself to his full height, he exclaimed:"Rome had her Brutus, why should not we?
34973Seward?"
34973Some one in the party remarked:"Are there no other means of saving the South except by assassination?"
34973Stepping directly up to Price Lewis, he addressed him:"Do n''t you remember me?"
34973The absorbing and exciting question in the South was:"Would the South submit to a Black Republican President and a Black Republican Congress?"
34973The driver suddenly pulled up his horses, and then the soldier, in a tone of authority:"Who are you, and where are you going?"
34973The gruff- voiced speaker then said:"Mr. Webster, is it your desire to become a member of this knightly band?"
34973The question to be decided this evening was:"Who should do the deed?"
34973The work is light-- now what do you say?"
34973There seemed to be several persons here, and a voice, that was evidently meant to be tragical and impressive, demanded:"Whom have we here?"
34973These questions were properly answered, and as the clerk was noting them he asked,"Might I ask what was the gentleman''s good luck?"
34973They were about to take these from him, when Webster inquired:"Who was the man who arrested me this morning?"
34973This answer seemed to infuriate the man, and striding up to Webster, he asked, with an air of impertinence:"Are you a Southern man?"
34973Wallace?"
34973What then?
34973What was to be done?
34973What, then, is your true name?"
34973Where had he met this darky before?
34973Who can blame this man?
34973Who can tell the thoughts that thronged through their brains, as the slow moving hours advanced toward the dawn?
34973Who comes there?"
34973Who, that has stood before the frowning scaffold, and with a free world before him, can utter words of censure?
34973Will there, now, eh?"
34973Will you drink her health with me?"
34973You are not in earnest, Major?"
34973You know stages are robbed out this way?"
34973You noticed that man standing in the hall when we came in, the same one now sitting at the desk?"
34973You''re_ here_, are you?
34973and if so, by what means had he discovered who they were and what their destination was?
34973exclaimed Lawton, as they came up,"are you hurt?"
34973he continued,"and what is the news from the Monumental City?"
34973how are you?"
34973said the clerk, driving away with his pen;"will you be so good as to ask Mr. Mallory to step this way?"
34973you were afraid of them, were you, and ran away?"
51803How?
51803Howdy, stranger?
51803Howdy?
51803Sure it''s not some of the Yankees?
51803Then she is a resident here, and there is no danger of their being spies?
51803This is your most direct route, is it not?
51803What''s up?
51803Where?
51803Will you kindly tell those gentlemen who I am? 51803 You do n''t expect to sit here with it all day, do you?"
51803How can you succeed where they and all the others have failed?"
51803In reply to his"What ere''want, stranger?"
51803Will you tell me what regiment this is?
5123And first, it is necessary to ask, Have the slaves been consulted?
5123But why discuss, on probable evidence, notorious facts?
5123Could it have been expected, or even perhaps desired, that they should?
5123Could the Union abandon them, without even an effort, to be dealt with at the pleasure of an exasperated slave- owning oligarchy?
5123Has their will been counted as any part in the estimate of collective volition?
5123Have they ever considered what would have been the meaning of separation if it had been assented to by the Northern States when first demanded?
5123How have they treated those who did attempt so to apply them?
5123If this be the true state of the case, what are the Southern chiefs fighting about?
5123Or even if unforgotten, who would then have felt that such a grievance was a sufficient palliation of the crime?
5123Shall we submit to see fire and sword carried over Cuba and Porto Rico, and Hayti and Liberia conquered and brought back to slavery?
5123The will of any knot of men who, by fair means or foul, by usurpation, terrorism, or fraud, have got the reins of government into their hands?
5123Why should the masters have members in right of their human chattels, any more than of their oxen and pigs?
50483A feeling of philosophy and awe prompts me to ask why all this great sacrifice of human life, misery and suffering?
50483A very pertinent question was often asked toward the close of the winter--"Who would command in the next campaign?"
50483Americans all, and all for what?
50483Are their deeds worth recording, worth remembering?
50483But I was going to the war and why should I care for comment or criticism?
50483But how''s this, we fighting behind entrenchments and the enemy in the open, four or five lines deep?
50483But it''s all grand and glorious, is n''t it boys?
50483Continuing, he said,"If he means to attack us on this side, why does he not reinforce on this side?
50483Do you not, sir?
50483How was this wicked and useless sacrifice brought about?
50483I was now halting between two opinions; was he aiming to have me commit myself, or was he really a friend?
50483If it were not for a great and wise purpose, how could it be?
50483Is it any wonder I am partial to Kentuckians and proud of their record in this great and memorable battle?
50483That legion hath marched past the setting of sun: Beaten?
50483What patriotic soldier could fail to be moved by its charm and pathos?
50483Why concentrate so much artillery on the bluff yonder?
50483Why should I not linger and contemplate?
50483Why, oh why, did Beauregard not allow us to finish the day''s work so gloriously begun by Johnston?
50483You know, old boys, just how this was, do n''t you?
50410And do n''t you want me to pray for you?
50410But what will I do now for the price of my tobacco? 50410 I say, Colonel, what does this mean, your men barking at me like so many dogs?"
50410Well, how could I prevent her talking? 50410 What, those same men disobeying my orders again?
50410You got hit, did you?
50410Can you say that the words of the preacher have the same effect on the memory as the printed page?
50410Did you ever hear of a congressman or legislator quoting a preacher in support of a measure?
50410Did you ever hear of the pulpit controlling the market?
50410Do you think we could carry on a war by some one of us having a few dollars in our pockets?
50410He placed his hand to his ear and said,"What''s that, sir?"
50410I noticed they were a different kind of potato from what I had ever seen, and politely asked her,"Please, madam, what do you call those potatoes?"
50410Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen and Honorable Judges: The question before you,"Should Education Be Compulsory?"
50410Should education be compulsory, then, for the benefit of the child?
50410So determined and persistent was the fight in our part of the line, I heard a voice behind me saying,"Sergeant, what regiment is this?"
50410The Chaplain asked,"Now, Andy, do n''t you feel the spirit of God coming within you?"
50410The doctor took the canteen and said,"Do you think you can stand it now?"
50410The press there is recognized as having more influence than the pulpit or the clergy, and, why?
50410What is it that influences legislation, the pulpit or the press?
50410What was it that brought the rebellion upon us?
50410What was it that passed the pension bill?
50410What''s on top of that pole?
50410Where is the family in McLean County that does not see and read the weekly paper?
50410Would not the effects be wonderful?
50410[ Illustration:( end of chapter icon)] SHOULD EDUCATION BE COMPULSORY?
50410what was there?
51552And did you have a Christmas tree and a happy time then?
51552Could you have believed that such atrocity could have been committed in the land of Washington?
51552Do you remember the Psalm Mr. McCarer[ our pastor] read the last night at our house, before I left with the regiment, the ninety- first?
51552Do you still like to hear stories?
51552Does my little Alice talk much about her papa?
51552Have you any action to direct?"
51552I believe under the circumstances you will agree with me that for the present it is best that you should not come over,--will you not?"
51552I write my wife:--"How would you and little Alice like to come out and live with me in a log hut for a while this winter?
51552My letter of the 13th of August gives some account of that visit:--"Does it look natural to you to see this letter dated from Knoxville?
51552Poor soldiers, do n''t you pity them?
51552Was it cold at home?
51552What do you say,--must I go in for it?
51552What think you of it?"
51552When shall that be?
51552Will you come down to see me there, or shall I jump on a boat and come up the Mississippi and Ohio and see you?"
51552Would you like papa to tell you a little story in his letter?
51552You will excuse me, will you not?
14595All well-- ain''t they?
14595Am I not at liberty to say what I please of the government?
14595And John?
14595Any plunder?
14595Any what?
14595Are the folks at home, Blackee?
14595Are you going to set up for a soldier- saint, too?
14595Are you hurt, Thomas?
14595Are you much hurt?
14595Are you sure, Tom?
14595Are you sure, my boy?
14595Are you sure?
14595Are you willing to take the oath of allegiance, and swear to sustain the flag of your country?
14595Are you wounded?
14595Ask him-- will you? 14595 B''long to the army-- do you?"
14595Back out of what, Thomas?
14595Blubbering again, Tom?
14595But do n''t you want to get nearer to them, and hear them talk?
14595But what ails you, Tom? 14595 But what are you going to do?"
14595But what will folks say?
14595But what will your father say?
14595But where do you live? 14595 But why do n''t you jine a regiment?"
14595But you want to go-- don''t you?
14595Ca n''t I go with you?
14595Ca n''t I, you stupid fool? 14595 Ca n''t you help me?"
14595Ca n''t you move him aft, Hapgood?
14595Calm? 14595 Can you tell me how the battle went at last?"
14595Can you tell me where I am?
14595Can you tell me where we are?
14595Can you tell me whether the Seventh Georgia Regiment is down this way?
14595Consarn yer picter, what are yer doin''up thar?
14595Cowards-- are you?
14595Did he settle with you, father?
14595Did mother say so?
14595Did n''t you see me over there? 14595 Did ye?"
14595Did you ask her?
14595Did you look around Squire Pemberton''s house, where he was seen last?
14595Did you say Pinchbrook?
14595Do n''t b''long in these yere parts, I reckon?
14595Do n''t you know any better than to make such a racket in this place?
14595Do n''t you know me?
14595Do n''t you know that every man in the regiment has been all over the city, and without any pass? 14595 Do n''t you see he is an officer?"
14595Do n''t you see she is under sail, and driving down like sixty? 14595 Do n''t you think we had better call up the neighbors, and have something done about it?"
14595Do n''t you think we''d better have a prayer meetin''before we go in?
14595Do n''t you think you had better go after the doctor, father?
14595Do you intend to remain here?
14595Do you keep a hotel?
14595Do you mean to compare me to Benedict Arnold, sir?
14595Do you mean to insult me?
14595Do you mean to proceed to violence?
14595Do you mean to say, mother, that you would have given him leave to go, even if he had teased you for a month?
14595Do you mean what you have said, mother?
14595Do you suppose she will give me another?
14595Do you suppose we shall get into a fight?
14595Do you think I can stand it, gran''ther?
14595Do you think I will trust myself out doors while that howling mob is hanging round the house?
14595Do you think I''m afraid, uncle?
14595Do you think so, mother?
14595Do you? 14595 Eh, Blackee?"
14595Eh? 14595 Father, did you hear that terrible racket just now?"
14595Give me back my gun-- won''t you?
14595Go and see who it is-- will you?
14595Got any money?
14595Hang the cause? 14595 Has he?"
14595Has n''t that boy got home yet?
14595Have you any dangerous weapons about your person?
14595Have you been in the rebel army long?
14595Have you forgot what you said the other night, mother?
14595Have you got a pass?
14595Have you got those socks on, my boy?
14595Have you taken many prisoners?
14595Have you waked up? 14595 Hev you nary toothpick or bone- cracker in your pockets?"
14595How are ye, yourself?
14595How are you, Fred?
14595How are you, people?
14595How d''ye do, mother?
14595How dare you break in my door?
14595How do you feel now, Tom?
14595How do you feel, Tom?
14595How do you know, Fred?

14595You did n''t see anything of him-- did you?
14595You said he was wounded?
14595You wo n''t say a word-- will you?
14595Are you going over?"
14595Ca n''t you see through a millstone, Tom, when there is a hole in it?"

14595Do n''t you know me, Tige?"
14595Do n''t you see this is n''t a quarrel between the North and the South, but between the government and the rebels?"
14595Do n''t you want to cry again?"
14595Do you belong to that regiment that stopped over yonder last night?"
14595Do you expect the laws to protect you while you are aiding and abetting those who are trying to destroy them?
14595Do you know how many men there are in the schooner?"
14595Do you think Benedict Arnold''s convictions, if he had any, would have saved his neck from the halter?"

14595Have you heard him say anything that will give you an idea where he is?"

14595Hev you seen any men with this gear on in these yere parts?"
14595How can I be calm?
14595How do you do, father?"
14595I am true to my convictions; why need I fear?"
14595I should be very glad to have you go; but what does your father say?"
14595If he had-- What''s that, John?"
14595If you mean to call me a coward, why do n''t you say so, right up and down?"
14595Is the company full?"
14595Is there any law to protect a traitor in his treason?

14595What ails yer?"
14595What are we stopping here for?"
14595What do you suppose has become of him?"
14595What do you want here?"
14595What do you want of a pass?
14595What do you want?"
14595What does that mean?"
14595What does your mother say?"
14595What does your mother say?"
14595What is the matter with them?"
14595What is your single arm against scores of strong men?"
14595What town is your house in?"
14595What was that firing?"
14595What''s that, my boy?"
14595What''s that?"
14595What''s your name?
14595When we marched from Sackett''s Harbor, there was a young feller--""Have some more tea, brother?"
14595When we marched from--""Have some more beans, brother?"
14595Where are you?"
14595Where did you come from?"
14595Where were you five minutes ago, when I passed this post?
14595Where''s your master?"
14595Who are you?"
14595Who comes there?"
14595Who''s you, sar?"
14595Who''s you, sar?"
14595Whom have we lost, uncle?"
14595Will you display the American flag?"
14595Will you give me something to eat?"
14595Will you go?"
14595Wo n''t she be proud of that picture when she gets it back?"
14595Wo n''t you take us over?"
14595You say the two men crossed the ford-- did ye, sonny?"
14595sighed the victim,"has it come to this?
14595what''s this?"
45894''Cause, sar, I can go to school, and learn to read; and den--"Well, what then?
45894Ai nt she a- ripping up the old salt water canvas, skearing the sharks and astonishing the sea sarpints?
45894And would you like that, Charley?
45894Are you willing to run the risk?
45894But we will be heard by the guerillas who may not be far off, and what would we do if a dozen of them should come upon us?
45894Dus you make books like dis- a- one?
45894How is you, Yankees? 45894 I sup- pose if we can not help it-- what you do?"
45894I suppose you would not hesitate to pink a rebel if he should come across you instead of a deer, Joe?
45894Is your piece loaded?
45894Oh!--Is you a- gwine to print a paper? 45894 Vat for you lay in ambush, den?"
45894Well, uncle,I said,"how do you like the Yankees?"
45894What company?
45894What did you cum for, den?
45894What name?
45894What were you sent here for, then?
45894What will all this amount to, lieutenant?
45894What''s the matter?
45894Wo n''t the rebs chaw him up?
45894Would you sooner be with the Yankees than the rebs?
45894You is-- you do? 45894 You think you are free now, and that the Yankees made you free, do you?"
45894A relapse ensued, and in a few days he was a corpse-- the victim of''red tape,''or incompetency, or criminal carelessness-- which?
45894As we marched in to take our position, the officer in command of the battery, asked--"What regiment is that?"
45894BY"ONE OF THE SEVENTEENTH,"[ Illustration: Thomas Kirwan( signature?)]
45894But how few, comparatively, of our detachment were now so eager, after encountering one enemy, to meet another?
45894Col. Amory coming up soon after, said--"Why do you stay here?
45894De press-- wha- what press-- de ex- press?"
45894Fowl, flesh, or fish?
45894Giving assurance that I intended no harm to any of them, I inquired if the master of the house was at home, and if so, where he then was?
45894Had he any whiskey?
45894How did you get here?"
45894Is that all the men I have?"
45894It was here that the 9th New Jersey picked up( captured?)
45894Observing an elderly gentleman in civilians''clothes, I remarked--"You do not look like a soldier either, friend?"
45894One of them a lad about 16 years old, was thus interrogated by the Major:"Vat for you be guerilla for?"
45894Seeing that he appeared unhurt, I questioned him while loading my piece:"What''s the matter?
45894Struck by the oddity of the saying, I stopped and questioned the lad--"Why are you glad you''re free, my little fellow?"
45894The transport we embarked upon was a dilapidated steamer called the"Haze"( who that ever took passage in her to or from Dixie can forget the old tub?
45894We have come''away daown Saouth in a few days,''have n''t we; and how do you like the lay of the land?
45894Were they huge gulls or windbags, cormorants or cranes, devils or dogfish?
45894What are you doing here?"
45894What chance would we have against so many?"
45894What then was it?
45894What-- can''t you even say''hooray?''"
45894When Tom McNally( the hero of the kicking mare) came up, Dr. Ainsworth asked--"Well-- what''s the matter with you, sir?"
45894When one of the delinquents stepped forward and asked--"If we goes, Massa Kimball, will dey guv us guns?"
45894Why do n''t you fire?"
45894there,--what does all this mean?
15414A Yankee?
15414A belt supper?
15414A traitor, General?
15414Again-- why?
15414Ah- hah, you_ would_, would you? 15414 Ai n''t you got no tongue in yo''haid?
15414An''do you love_ him_--like_ I_ love Gen''ral Lee?
15414An''he did that-- for little_ me_? 15414 An''las''Friday, Sally Ann went away-- I do n''t know where-- an''--""What?"
15414An''s''posin''I_ is_--wat den?
15414And Mr. Morrison tried to stop him?
15414And do you know the uniform of a Union officer-- when you see it?
15414And so,he said, addressing Miss Virginia,"that bad man took your pass?"
15414And this is your contention-- your_ legal_ flaw in my machine?
15414And was that the reason why you asked about my neighbor''s horse?
15414And what does_ Cary_ say?
15414And when you captured him?
15414And where does it lead to, may I ask?
15414And who played Blue Beard?
15414And you_ saw_ him fly off the boat?
15414Any other papers?--of any kind?
15414Any witnesses of the Sergeant''s death?
15414Anything else?
15414Anything else?
15414Are you sure?
15414Aw, dat? 15414 But do you usually feed their horses?"
15414But they did n''t, did they?
15414But which way did he go?
15414Can we get to it to- night?
15414Can you see anything?
15414Captain Cary, is this true?
15414Coffee? 15414 Daddy,"broke out a piping voice,"do n''t you think we''d better make this Yankee horse get up a little?
15414Daddy,she murmured, clutching at his sleeve,"while we are waitin''do you reckon we could take just a_ little_ bit of that?"
15414Daddy,she questioned, in a small, puzzled voice,"what are they going to do?"
15414Daddy,she whispered,"are they-- are they goin''to carry us off to the Yankee camp?"
15414Daddy,she whispered,"he''s a right good Yankee-- isn''t he?"
15414Daddy,the soldier''s daughter asked,"will you tell him somethin''--from me?"
15414Daddy-- how far is it to Richmon''now?
15414Daddy--"Yes?
15414Did he ever wear a coat of blue-- a_ Yankee_ uniform?
15414Did he?
15414Did he?
15414Did you ever penetrate the Federal lines by means of a uniform-- of blue?
15414Did you, honey?
15414Do you actually suppose,he asked,"that I''m proud of this?
15414Do you call a man a traitor who fought as Morrison did a week ago? 15414 Do you know that man?"
15414Do you know, Cary, this war for us, the men, may be a hell, but what is it for those we leave at home? 15414 Do you presume to contest this,_ too_?"
15414Do you reckon, by the time the war is over, we could call Susan Jemima a vet''ran?
15414Do you reckon,the child said, curiously,"that Gertrude is havin''_ her_ supper now?"
15414Do you think he would, if-- if I washed my hands-- real clean?
15414Does it hurt you much, dear?
15414Doin''what?
15414Even by force?
15414Faith, then,_ who_?
15414For what?
15414From your Gen''ral?
15414Has he?
15414Has n''t she grown bald in the service? 15414 Have you been taking good care of mother-- and seeing that Uncle Billy does his plowing right?"
15414Have you?
15414Hear anything?
15414Hear our people talking, honey? 15414 Hear_ me_?"
15414Him?
15414How did you catch him?
15414How did you do it?
15414How far_ is_ it to Richmon'', Daddy- man?
15414How long ago?
15414How many?
15414How old are you?
15414How so-- a find?
15414How so?
15414How you does, Mars''Cary? 15414 How''s that?"
15414How?
15414I was only goin''to ask the Colonel if he did n''t think his men out there would like some of these_ heavingly_ things to eat?
15414I wonder which way he went?
15414If I loaned you a horse, do you think Virgie could ride behind you?
15414Is he your uncle?
15414Is it ready yet?
15414Is it true that Jeems Henry ran away this morning?
15414Is n''t he? 15414 Is that the old codger who''s been worrying my entire staff for permission to go through our lines to his home?"
15414Is that to settle it?
15414Is there going to be a-- a_ battle_?
15414Is this really true?
15414Is this true?
15414Is-- is it hurtin''you again? 15414 Join me, wo n''t you?
15414Like Mamma?
15414Me leave Miss Hallie_ now_? 15414 Me?"
15414Me?
15414Might I inquire as to what you are called by your-- er-- justly respectful relatives and friends?
15414Mr. Yankee,she asked, and looked up into his face,"are you goin''to let Daddy come to Richmon'', too?"
15414No wounded officers-- or refugees of any kind?
15414Now, then, Corporal, you found what?
15414O''Connell,he said, sternly,"what is the meaning of this?
15414Oh, Daddy, did he? 15414 Oh, Daddy, where is it?"
15414Oh, what are you goin''to do?
15414Oh,_ has_ he?
15414Pardon me, but if it_ was_ true-- if a brother or a father-- was concealed in there-- wouldn''t your answer be the same?
15414Please, Mr. Yankee-- won''t you tell me your name?
15414Pwhat does it say?
15414Reprieve?
15414Revenge? 15414 She left you here-- all by yourself?"
15414Sister Anne; Sister Anne, do you see anybody coming?
15414The Colonel? 15414 The Littlest Rebel, eh?"
15414Then he did go this way-- to the river crossing?
15414This is better than our old belt supper, Daddy, is n''t it?
15414Three?
15414To whom do you belong?
15414Um?
15414Wan''see_ me_, suh?
15414Was he running_ towards_ his troop or_ away_ from it?
15414Was it?
15414Well, Corporal?
15414Well, Forbes, well? 15414 Well, Harris?"
15414Well, James, are you coming?
15414Well, William?
15414Well, did he?
15414Well, it''s your_ name_, is n''t it? 15414 Well, sir,"he asked,"who are you?"
15414Well, young one,he said to the small Miss Cary with a laugh,"did you really get something to eat?"
15414Well? 15414 Well?
15414Whar you git dem whiskers at?
15414Whar you gwine?
15414What are you goin''to do?
15414What dat?
15414What did he say, Daddy? 15414 What did you do?"
15414What do you keep in there?
15414What do you mean?
15414What does danger to one man mean when Dixie calls us all? 15414 What else?"
15414What happened then?
15414What is in it now?
15414What is it?
15414What is that?
15414What make you look so pale?
15414What makes you look so worried, Herbert?
15414What on earth is this thing?
15414What was he doing there?
15414What you got in yo''bundle?
15414What you talkin''''bout?
15414What''ll ye be after doin''?
15414What''s her name?
15414What''s that?

15414What''s what?
15414What''s your name, little monkey?
15414What''s_ that_?
15414What''s_ that_?
15414What? 15414 What?"
15414What_ do_ we do now? 15414 When your father came, did he ever wear clothes that-- that were not his own?"
15414Where did_ you_ drop from?
15414Which way did he go?
15414Which way you gwine? 15414 Who is in command here?"
15414Who is it wants me?
15414Who was the man who preferred these charges to start with?
15414Who? 15414 Who?"
15414Whose is he?
15414Why not?
15414Why, Uncle Billy,she queried,"what is going on here?
15414Why, man, ca n''t you see?
15414Why?
15414Wo n''t they?
15414Would you mind if I asked you to go back again? 15414 Ye- e- e- s, possibly,"the Northerner assented, and he looked thoughtfully at Virgie,"but still--""What is it?"
15414Yes?
15414You and--she cast a glance at Sally Ann--"your respected brother- in- law can wait a few moments, ca n''t you?
15414You are sure he was on the low grounds?
15414You give me your word for this-- your oath?
15414You have lived here-- always?
15414You have read the findings of the court?
15414You reckon she done brought somebody, sho''''nuff? 15414 You-- you do n''t think he can fly, do you?"
15414You-- you mean who he b''longs to?
15414_ Almost?_he echoed.
15414_ How_ often?
15414_ I? 15414 _ Me?_"pouted Virgie.
15414_ Once?_echoed the General, surprised.
15414_ Pardon?_cried Morrison, springing to his feet with an exclamation of amazement.
15414_ Pardon?_he said, and he advanced with deliberation to the desk where he stood with his eyes steady on Harris''face.
15414_ Surrounding us?_Mrs. Cary whispered, hardly believing her ears.
15414_ Used_ to be--?
15414_ What must I tell him_?
15414_ What?_cried the General angrily.
15414_ Whose_ orders?
15414_ Why?_asked the General quietly.
15414After the first just encomium-- what was this that was coming?
15414Am I, then, so pale?"
15414An''what you think you gwine to do when you git to''em?"
15414And as she snuggled in his arms, her berry- stained fingers clasped tightly about his neck, he asked her wistfully,"Did you miss me?--_awful_ much?"
15414And do you remember how many times he came that way?"
15414And has n''t she almost lost an arm-- or is it a leg I see dangling so terribly?
15414And now the troopers waited-- and for what?
15414And then, with a quick, searching look,"Are there any rebels hidden in your house?"
15414And what do; you see?"
15414And-- went on the cool, quiet mind-- since the man was_ not_ a spy how could a Union officer be executed for assisting a_ spy_ to escape?
15414And_ do_ you take cream?"
15414Are n''t you going to ask me to have some breakfast?"
15414Are you asking me to pardon a guilty man?
15414But do n''t you know we are just like other people?"
15414But still, as an interested party, have you anything to say in your own behalf?"
15414But what did he do-- or say?"
15414But what have you in that bundle?"
15414But you?
15414But, darling, why?
15414Can this really be a sausage?"
15414Can ye not see?"
15414Can you hear the guns?"
15414Can you read it?"
15414Could any man ask for better proof that we had the spy right in our hands and then our commanding officer deliberately let him go?"
15414Den he''sult Miss Hallie--""Miss Hallie?"
15414Did he?"
15414Did you make it yourself?"
15414Do n''t you?"
15414Do you hear?"
15414Do you see anybody coming?"
15414Do you think I''m wringing blood out of your heart and mine-- for money?"
15414Do you understand?--and can you remember?"
15414Do you want me to think you are out of your mind?"
15414Everything else all right?"
15414Get me a drink of water, will you?"
15414Have you anything to eat?"
15414He glanced at the table, measuring its height with the pitch of the ceiling, then turned to her again:"Is your father in that loft?"
15414He paused, then spoke again, more calmly:"You thought me a beast to frighten her; but do n''t you know it was the only thing to do?
15414He stood for a moment, looking at the floor, then asked her sharply, suddenly:"If your father had gone, then why did you lock that door?"
15414Her breath came fast, as she sank her voice to a faint, awed whisper,"Daddy-- do you reckon it''s--_Yankees_?"
15414His Northern captor asked:"Are you carrying dispatches?"
15414How could she understand that man- hunt in the early dawn?
15414How many horses are there in the stable?"
15414How many lumps?
15414How many?"
15414How you fine yo''sef, seh?"
15414How''s that?"
15414I just know it feels better already-- doesn''t it?"
15414I reckon Gertrude gets lots to eat, does n''t she?"
15414Immediately she snuggled close to him and whispered hotly in his ear,"Who are they, Daddy?"
15414In fitful flight do misty visions reel, While restless chargers toss their bridle- reins?
15414Is he still here?"
15414Is it true-- as I learn from this report-- that during a skirmish a week ago you helped defend the Union colors against your own people?"
15414Is it you?
15414Is n''t it?"
15414Is n''t there a single hope-- even the tiniest ray?"
15414Is this true?"
15414Is_ that_ why your father comes?"
15414May-- may my soldiers go in now?
15414Morrison-- last?"
15414Mrs. Cary dead?
15414Must you go so soon?"
15414Now, is n''t that just fine?"
15414Now-- doesn''t it look nice and white?"
15414Oh, wo n''t_ you_ play with us, Mother?
15414Oh, you wo n''t?
15414Once more he sipped at the grateful, cooling draught of water, when the child asked suddenly:"How is Gen''ral Lee?"
15414Orn''estan me?
15414Right when she ai n''t got_ nothin_''?
15414See that line of hills?
15414Should fearless human love reap no reward beyond the crashing epitaph of a firing squad, and the powder smoke that drifted with the passing of a soul?
15414So de Yankees is up dar, is dey?
15414So ruled the god of warfare; still, did war prescribe disgrace and death for all?
15414Still no answer, and he took a step toward her, speaking sternly:"Do you hear me?
15414The child regarded him in wondering awe, speaking in a half- breathed whisper:"Did he-- did he_ shoot_ at you?"
15414The child watched him anxiously for a moment and then put a soft little hand on his shoulder:"Are you_ so_ tired, Daddy- man?"
15414The soldier started, glanced at his troopers, then back to the child again:"Is Herbert Cary your father?"
15414The voice of her inquisitor took on a sterner tone:"Is he here?--hiding somewhere?
15414Then bring my horse--_at once!_ Any details?"
15414Then he turned to Cary:"Have any trouble on the road as you came along?"
15414Then since your visit would seem a_ social_ one-- how may I serve you, sir?"
15414Then what says_ Morrison_?"
15414Then you_ did_ capture him?"
15414There was a silence and then-- without turning around--"Well, Lieutenant, what is it?"
15414There was nothing for him to say, and Virgie scorched him with another question:"What did you come after Daddy for?"
15414There was silence for a moment, and the General asked:"Is it true that you were actuated by a debt of gratitude?"
15414This poor tot motherless?
15414Understand?
15414Understand?"
15414Virgie what?"
15414Virgie, do you hear?
15414Well-- what else?"
15414Whar you gwine?"
15414Whar''d I put my s''wode?"
15414What I tole you?
15414What could they ever gain-- save a little more honor-- and at what dreadful cost?
15414What did I tell you?
15414What is it, Daddy- man?"
15414What is this I see before me?
15414What is your point?
15414What was the use of fighting forever against such fearful odds?
15414What were you going to say?"
15414What you be''n up to sence I be''n away?
15414What''s that?"
15414What?"
15414What?"
15414What_ is_ the matter?"
15414When down the lines gleam points of polished steel, And phantom columns flood the sun- lit plains?
15414When was it?"
15414When you lived at home-- and afterwards in your cabin-- did your father come to see you often?"
15414Where is the negro?"
15414Where is your father now?"
15414Which way did he go?"
15414Why are n''t you with your company?"
15414Why are n''t you with your detachment?"
15414Why are you here?
15414Why not?"
15414Why?"
15414Why?"
15414Wo n''t you?"
15414Wo n''t you?"
15414Would n''t the right fork lead to Richmond-- and the left swing around toward the river crossing?"
15414Would you like to see her picture?"
15414You hear me?
15414You hear--_what_?"
15414You see--""Wait a minute,"he interrupted,"what became of the old colored man who--""Uncle Billy?
15414You understand?
15414You-- you do n''t mean to say that the Yankees are in the neighborhood?"
15414You?"
15414_ Not as a spy!_""A spy?
15414_ R- r- r- r- rum- dum!_"And that-- a drum?"
15414_ Tara- tara!_"What''s that-- a bugle?"
15414_ We''ll_ get the liquor and silver while the Colonel is stealing the horses, eh?"
15414_ Where_ did you get him?"
15414_ Whose was he?_"Again that smooth, soft voice with its languid evasions.
15414_ Will they kill the Colonel?_"For a moment he could not answer.
15414said Virgie, laughing at his reference to the wise old rabbit and feeling for the pockets of his shabby coat,"Did you-- did you bring me anything?"
15414which way do you go?"
35906''Now, you do n''t mean to come for to insinuate that them ere''s_ my_ butes, and I not know it?'' 35906 A conductor?"
35906And a masculine father?
35906And do n''t they die?
35906And sixteen small children?
35906And will it never be put out?
35906Anna who?
35906Are you Chivalry?
35906Are you familiar with the history of General Scott?
35906Boys,says the master,"how is the table of Confederate money divided?"
35906Can it be?
35906Can it be?
35906Confederate,said Captain Bob Shorty, approaching him with his sword very much between his legs,"hast seen the rebel Frost and his myrmidions?
35906D''you zee that drunken fool standing there in the street?
35906Did I not tell you that they came in a wrapper?
35906Did n''t you want it Cabinet size?
35906Did you order the rebel to surrender his incendiary establishment to the United States of America?
35906Do you see that thick wood yonder?
35906Do you think so?
35906Does the fort surrender to the United States of America?
35906Dost fence?
35906Eagle,said the Shade, advancing,"tell me by what dread mischancing Thou, the symbol of my people, bear''st thy plumes erect no more?
35906Hallo, my interesting infant,says I,"are you drawing a map of Pensacola for an enlightened press?"
35906Hast seen any troops pass here of late?
35906He kinder stuck a minute, and then says he:''What''ll ye take for it, hoss?''
35906Here, the loyal armies sleep; There, the foe awaits them all; Who can tell before the time Which shall triumph, which shall fall? 35906 Hev you tried the experiment of_ shutting up_ that air umbrella?"
35906How left?
35906How?
35906Is any of my brains hanging out?
35906Is it Congress ye want?
35906Is it?
35906Is these the borders of Accomac?
35906Master Wise,says the master, confidently,"can you tell us where Africa is?"
35906Mr. Davis,says Samyule to the Confederacy at the window,"if we do not irritate you, will you consent to be reconstructed?"
35906No sound, no sign from thee? 35906 Oh-- ah-- yes,"says the serious chap, vaguely,"what will_ you_ take?"
35906Soldier,says I,"were you to die before to- morrow, what would be your last request?"
35906Soldier,says he,"was there anything in my head before you fired?"
35906Tell me, young Christy''s minstrel,says Captain Bob Shorty,"have any troops passed here to- night?"
35906Tell me,says he,"had you a female mother?"
35906Then, why is his head bandaged up so?
35906Venerable pundit,says I, in astonishment,"how came the faces of those offspring so deformed?"
35906Was it the real insect?
35906Was there anything_ inside_ of my head?
35906We''ve brothers in Canada, too--( And did n''t the Prince have a taste of them?) 35906 Well, Samyule,"says the general to one of the pickets,"what is your charge against the prisonier?"
35906Well, my juvenile Union- blue,says Villiam, smiling like a successful cherubim,"what do you think of that piece of American intelleck?"
35906Well, then, you poor ignorant cuss,says the commodore, in a great passion,"what do you want to put the plates on the outside for?
35906Well,says Villiam to the chap when he came down,"what is the force of the Confederacy?"
35906Well,says he,"then what''s the gun- carriage doing here?"
35906Well,says the comforting Mackerel,"then why did you get married?
35906Well,says the surgeon, in a sprightly manner,"then suppose I put a fly- blister on your stomick, and only amputate your right arm?"
35906What call you the charger?
35906What do you mean?
35906What makes you think that General Scott had a son named''Whahae''? 35906 What makes you think that?"
35906What mean you, fellow?
35906What mean you, sirrah?
35906What place is this?
35906What place is this?
35906What said the unnatural scorpion?
35906What''s that white object?
35906What''s that?
35906What''s that?
35906What''s the matter, my blue and gilt?
35906Where did you leave your comrades?
35906Whom would you wish me to send for?
35906Why do you ask?
35906Why thinkest thou so, my cherub? 35906 Why, did n''t you hear the roar of their artillery?"
35906Why, what are you talking about?
35906Why, you went to New York on recruiting service, did n''t you?
35906Why,says he,"did n''t you say that the traitor Floyd found_ a negress_ down the river?"
35906Why,says he,"you know Simpson, your uncle?"
35906Why,says the commodore,"ai n''t them iron plates intended to protect the crew?"
35906Wouldst thou be shrived, Old Year? 35906 Yes,"says Samyule, metaphysically;"will you consent to be borne again, as we have borne with you heretofore?"
35906You have seen the tragic Forrest?
35906Young man,says she, in a vinegar manner,"do you want to be damned?"
35906A small black contraband came to the door, and says he:"By gorry, mars''r sogerum, what you hab?"
35906After a short silence, Mr. Higgins took a chew of tobacco, and placing his hand on my shoulder, exclaimed:"Why should I deceive you, girl?
35906After this, he remained in a thoughtful reverie for two hours, and then turning to me, asked:"Galushiana, what do you think of me?"
35906And can such a people as this be conquered by a horde of godless rebels?
35906And how are you going to protect the crew on the inside by putting iron plates on the outside?"
35906And is it thus we meet?
35906And now the question arises, is Morrill''s tariff really a benefit to the country?
35906And will it be possible to regain the love of these noble people again, my boy, if we treat them constitutionally?
35906Anxious to oblige her, my boy, I asked the General of the Mackerel Brigade if he knew a soldier"of the name of Smith?"
35906Are we a race of unsuspecting innocents, my boy, and are we easily imposed upon by shirt- ruffles and oily magnitude of manner?
35906Are you ready, my sagacious reptiles, to spill a drop or so for your soaking country?
35906Be you married folks, stranger?"
35906But must they_ all_, therefore, be lost to the world?
35906But tell me, my Pylades, has the dredging for those missing regiments near Alexandria proved successful?"
35906But tell me, sweet hermit of the dale,"pursued Samyule,"where are the oats we have heard about?"
35906But when General McClellan came to inquire into the cause of the explosions, this report was somewhat modified:"What was that firing for?"
35906By- and- by there came along a chap of humble attainments, who sung out:"What''s the matter, old three- and- sixpence?"
35906Can it be, my boy, that the soul of a Mackerel will need a fan in another world?
35906Can such be the case, my boy-- can such be the case?
35906Could nothing induce those devoted patriots to strike for the forlorn hope?
35906Did n''t me and the fellers have to cave in your door with a night- key wrench-- sa- a- ay?
35906Do you not shrink?
35906Do you remember the asinine time in your own life, my boy,--do you remember it?
35906Dost thou hear me?
35906George?"
35906Had it gone to Heaven?
35906Have a comb?"
35906Have you a quarter about you?"
35906He also said hic, my boy; and one of the ladies wanted"to know what that meant?"
35906He came back to- day, and says the colonel to him:"Where''s your recruits?"
35906He kept as still as a mouse in a pantry until I come up, and then says he:"''What''s that ere concern of yourn, hoss?''
35906He sighed, as he shoved a demijohn further under his desk, and says he:"There''s only one newspaper in the world that pays now, sonny:"What''s that?"
35906He was sitting with me in my room at Willard''s the other evening, and says I to him:"What''s that you hug so much, my Plymouth Rocker?"
35906Here Mr. Dana stepped out from the ranks, and says he:"Carrie who, mars''r?"
35906Hez caliker proved deceitful?"
35906How about that tax- bill?
35906How can that be when I am a well- red man?"
35906How did he take it?
35906How- now?"
35906I conversed with him the other evening, and, after discussing various topics, asked him what he thought of the Washington statue as it stood?
35906I directed the general''s attention to it, and asked him if that was one of the unique gifts presented to the Government by the late Japanese embassy?
35906I looked at him for a moment, after the manner of the late great actor, Mr. Kirby, and says I:"Soldier, hast thou a wife?"
35906I looked at this carefully, and then says I to Villiam:"Tell me, my gay Achilles, what you carry in that?"
35906I remarked this to the captain, whereupon he looked pityingly at me, and says he:"Do you see that hole in the bull''s eye, just the size of a bullet?"
35906I saw one of the dragoons cracking nuts on the backbone of the Arabian he rode, and asked him about how much such an animal was worth without the fur?
35906I see he felt powerful mean, so I walked up to him, and sez I:''Suppose we go and look for the New Jerusalem?''
35906I wonder how those nice, pleasant, gentlemanly chaps down in South Carolina enjoy Uncle Samuel''s latest hit?
35906Is it not a flag?
35906Is it with the blood of kinsmen?
35906Is there in the land so cherished, land for whom the great have perished, Men to shed a brother''s blood as tyrant''s blood was shed before?
35906Jinks looked at the book, and says he:"What district is that fire in?"
35906Just for greens, I asked one of them, yesterday, what he came here for?
35906Let each man ask himself in Dutch:"Am I prepared to shoulder my musket if I am drafted, or to procure a reprobate to take my place?"
35906Mad as hornets with the hydrophobia, the two old tops went to see him, and says they:"Confound your picture, did n''t you promise to be neutral?"
35906Murphy?"
35906Need I describe how our noble old nautical sea- dog was received by the Mackerel Brigade?
35906Now what do I see before me?
35906Now, who do you suppose_ was_ elected?
35906One very reliable contraband left the ranks, and says he:"Mars''r, had n''t Brudder Rhett better gub out the hymn before the service commence?"
35906Perhaps Sixty- nine did n''t peg them, And give them uncommon cheroots?
35906Read this poickry,"says he,"and if it ai nt double X with the foam off, where''s your Milton?"
35906STAGGERS( conservative, Border State) wished to know whether this body intended to legislate for white men or niggers?
35906Says he:"Have I the honor of addressing the wife of the Southern Confederacy?"
35906Seeing his affliction, and divining its cause, another Mackerel stepped up to him, and says he:"Is it the old woman which is on a tare?"
35906Shall treason triumph in our land, my boy, while there''s a sword to wave?
35906Shall we longer allow the bloated British aristocracy to blight us with base abolition proclivities, while Mr. Seward is capable of holding a pen?
35906Shall we not defend her ever As we''d defend That fair maiden, kind and tender, Calling us friend?
35906Silent still, and motionless?
35906Soldier, soldier, wan and gray, Standing there so very still, On the outpost looking South, What is there to- night to kill?
35906Soldier, soldier, where art thou?
35906Step this way,"says the married chap, with a horrible smile, leading his consoler aside,"ai n''t the women of America mortal?"
35906Supposing Mason and Slidell were your friends, how would you work it to get them out of Fort Warren?"
35906Tell me, soldier, grim and old, If thy tongue is free to say, What thou seest looking South, In that still and staring way?
35906The Chivalry only paused long enough to throw a couple of pie- plates at us, and then says he:"Are you accursed abolitionists?"
35906The Southern mind knows how to recognize a soul apart from its outer circumstances; for what say the logicians?
35906The Stars and the Stripes here at home To Canada''s walls we would pin again, And would n''t we raise them in Cork?"
35906The action being the same in both cases, can it be that physiological inspection would develope an affinity between the natural causes thereof?
35906The crew will be on the inside-- won''t it?
35906The crew wo n''t be on the outside-- will it?
35906The editor went to him, and says he:"What do you mean by this impertinence, Timothy?"
35906The old man looked kinder queerious at Sally, and she commenced to snicker; and sez she:''What are you two fellers rumpussin''about?''
35906Then Mr. Higgins said, in tones of exquisitely modulated thunder:"What did you bring the d-- d girl_ here_ for, you old cuss you?"
35906Then turn not from poor Pussy in disdain, Whose pride of ancestry may equal thine; For is she not a blood- descendant of The ancient Catty line?
35906This venerable surgeon first deposited a large saw, a hatchet, and two pick- axes on the table, and then says he:"How do you find yourself, boy?"
35906To- morrow, where are Thou?
35906Villiam Brown, of Company 3, Regiment 5, got one of them the other day, headed,"Who is your Father?"
35906Villiam smiled like a pleased clam, and says he:"You say he stole a looking- glass?"
35906Was it the music of a higher sphere that I smelt, or was I still in this world of folly and sin?
35906What are yer gassin''about, then?
35906What did you make it so small for, you daubing cuss?"
35906What does the Constitution say about Kentucky?
35906What does the Constitution say about newspapers?
35906What words can express the horrors of such unnatural crime?
35906When he was about five hours old, his male parent said to him:"My boy, do you know me?"
35906Where are they who murder Peace before the breaking out of war?"
35906Who-- wha-- what are yer coughin''at-- sa- a- ay?"
35906Why did n''t you stay a single bachelor like me, and enjoy the pursuit of happiness in the Fire Department?"
35906Why do n''t you go to the front like a man?"
35906Why dost thou desert mine army, sent against the foes that harm me, Through my country, with a Treason worlds to come shall e''er deplore?"
35906Will you not embrace me?
35906Wilt fight?"
35906Would impious hand of foe disturb Its memories''holy spell, And blight it with a dew of blood?
35906Your priests would say this was wrong-- hey?"
35906and what does the work of art represent?"
35906can this be so?
35906desired to know if the tax upon Young Hyson is not to be moderated?
35906need I tell how the band whipped out his key- bugle and played all the triumphant airs of our distracted country, and several original cavatinas?
35906said I, sarcastically,"where have you seen any Russ pavement?"
35906said he,"are thy pinions stained already In a tide whose blending waters never ran so red before?
35906says I,"Johnny, did n''t you hear the old Hall kettle strike for the Fourth District?
35906says Villiam, cautiously,"tell me, blessed shade, what has a coachman got to drive on board a vessel?"
35906says Villiam, cholerically,"Why do n''t that blessed dog get out of the way?"
35906says Villiam, indignantly,"Who owns that owdacious dog there?"
35906says Villiam, replacing the newspaper that had just blown off from two lemons and a wicker flask on the table,"what says our cousin Africa?"
35906says Villiam, replacing the stopper of his canteen, and quickly looking behind him,"What means this spectacle which mine eyes observe?"
35906says Villiam, skeptically,"do you think you hit him, Ajack?"
35906says Villiam, to the Ethiop,"did you ever see the devil?"
35906says Villiam,"is that a healthy place?"
35906says Villiam,"what was''t?"
35906says he, with a groan in three syllables,"do you call this ere biscuit bread?
35906says he,"you mean, will I consent to be born again?"
35906says the general, stopping short;"who''s been sending artillery into camp?"
35906says the general,"did n''t they kill any of the rebels?"
35906says the general;"but where is your company?"
35906says the inferior Mackerel, brightening up,"is it?
35906says the publishing chap, almost in a shriek--"never wrote a line to a newspaper?
35906says the sentinel,"is it the taxes all of them ould chaps is afther blaming?"
35906shall I ever forget it-- ever cease to hear those cries ringing in mine ears?
35906shouted Samyule, with great emotion,"what are you pointing at me for?"
35906those pale lips uttered;"Is the blood Columbia treasures spilt upon its native shore?
35906what am I?
35906what should we do without thee?
35906who owns these ere big trotters?"
51250, 257What''s Up, Sentry?
51250, 55How Are You, Rosey?
51250What do you expect to catch?
51250Where were you, Johnnie, when the thing went off?
51250''What was it, Colonel?''
51250Canteens of the fiery stuff were carried back to camp for the benefit(?)
51250Colonel Davis, who was standing eight or ten feet in our rear, asked,''Lieutenant, is he dead?''
51250He was promptly halted when the President exclaimed,"What''s up, Sentry?"
51250How does this act bear upon our Third Division, where the Thirty- ninth Regiment is?
51250If remaining in position brought such a record as this, what would it have been had there been another effort to advance?
51250In all these movements on the great chessboard of war with its army corps, divisions and brigades, what was a single regiment among so many hundred?
51250Is Colonel Davis proud of his men?
51250Not a few observers in the Union ranks wondered why things were thus, and Hooker''s pertinent question,"Who ever saw a dead cavalryman?"
51250On the appearance of the relief at that time, someone gave the watchword,"Who''s for liberty?"
51250This event is thus cheerfully alluded to in John D. Billing''s excellent history of the Battery,"''How are you, Boxford?''
51250What Northern home is ignorant of the healing qualities of blackberry cordial?
51250When, however, the rolls afford no such statements, where is the statistician acquiring his alleged facts?
51250Whereupon the General said,''Do n''t you know any better than that?''
51250Who can explain the starting of so many baseless reports?
51250Will not coming generations wonder that men who could together sing the old songs should ever fight each other?
51250Writes one poor fellow, somewhat discouraged,"When shall we get through this terrible campaign?"
51250disa., Dec. 11,''63,"; why is his name carried on the rolls of the Thirty- ninth?
36969A- coming down here a- spiling our country, and a- robbing our hen- roosts? 36969 AIN''T YOU ASHAMED OF YOU''UNS?"
36969And if we were, what would it matter? 36969 And the love of him whose manly courage and devotion won this tribute is the best blessing God ever gave you, is n''t it?"
36969Are you in pain, Captain?
36969Are you married?
36969But I must see him; I ca n''t live without seeing him; I must hire some one to go and take him up; ca n''t you get some one to take him up? 36969 But do they satisfy their hunger?"
36969But what does the doctor say, for I am mighty anxious to go?
36969Did I say all that?
36969Did you writ all that?
36969Had not you all better go home?
36969How can we reach it?
36969How is that,inquired Pat,"are we not friends?"
36969How perfectly ridiculous,do you say?
36969Is this Colonel Prince?
36969Kin you writ a letter?
36969Lee, Lee?
36969May I ask why he is a prisoner?
36969May n''t I wash your face?
36969She? 36969 Tell me the truth, wo n''t you?"
36969Think you that such as these are not deserving the help of those of us who have been more fortunate? 36969 This little paper is your most precious treasure, is n''t it?"
36969Well, madam,said the Federal officer, with bland politeness,"to what do I owe the honor of this visit?"
36969Well, what are you going to do now, John?
36969Well, what''s the trouble, sir?
36969What do you mean, sir?
36969What do you want here?
36969What is that?
36969What is the matter now?
36969What is the nature of those acts?
36969What is your name?
36969What must I do with her?
36969What''s the matter with this meat, madam? 36969 What''s the matter, man?"
36969When did he join it?
36969Where are the women who represented the six hundred thousand valiant soldiers who constituted the grandest army the world has yet known? 36969 Where can I get a little ice?"
36969Where is the nearest ford?
36969Where''s the General?
36969Which way?
36969Who are you-- one of the Yankees?
36969Who are you?
36969Who was Barbara Frietchie?
36969Why did n''t you take some ham last night?
36969Why do you and your troops rush into my house?
36969Why do you not let the nurse cut your nails?
36969Why, father,said I,"who ever heard of paying ten dollars for needles and thread?"
36969Will you come back to- morrow and go now?
36969Will you let me have your hair cut then? 36969 Will you not let me pray for you?"
36969Wouldst thou have me love thee, dearest, With a woman''s proudest heart, Which shall ever hold thee nearest, Shrined in its inmost part? 36969 You do n''t say so?"
36969''Who sent you with that message to me?''
36969*** Standing with the principles of''76 behind us, who can deny them that right?"
3696939?"
36969After being reassured as to his master''s safety, I asked,"Did he have a comfortable night, John?"
36969Again, I demand why you have burned my home?
36969Ai n''t you ashamed of you''uns?
36969Am I not more than repaid by their thanks?
36969And pray, sir, is he your husband or mine?"
36969And she replied:"Did you eat the mutton chops last night?"
36969And then he told me this interesting story:"Ever been to Frederick?"
36969Answer as you must answer before the Searcher of all hearts, why have you added this cruel, wicked deed to your many crimes?
36969Are n''t you ashamed of yourselves?
36969As one of these was rushing from a hot fire to the rear one day, his colonel shouted to him,"What are you running for?
36969Astonished at the calmness with which he seemed to be submitting to what he regarded as inevitable fate, I said to him,"Have you no defence?
36969At last the call of a sentry brought her to stand, with a hoarse"Who goes there?"
36969B. Gordon shouted,"Stop there, Jim; what makes you run?"
36969But of what importance was the fact that I was homeless, houseless and moneyless, in Richmond, the heart of Virginia?
36969But what has been the result of opening it to them?
36969But what was to be done?
36969But where is he buried?"
36969But, Lord, if we let the South go, as Mr. Lincoln says, where will we get our revenues?
36969But, my dear friends, have we not failed in one paramount duty?
36969Can I say,"God forgive you?"
36969Can ancient or modern history show a nobler or more unselfish and patriotic devotion to any cause?
36969Can life have any more terrible antithesis than this?
36969Catching at the suggestion as a revelation of duty, she asked,"And cheerfulness makes better soldiers of the men, does it not?"
36969Could any one lead a more consecrated life?
36969Could it be that Psyche had stirred one of the delicate plumes of her wing and touched that dormant soul?
36969Daniels?"
36969Declare war?
36969Did they think the night too terrible to be out?
36969Do ye think I would come all the way from Ireland to belong to one State when I have a right to belong to the whole of''em?"
36969Do you see that tender vine binding up the shattered tree and hiding its wounds?
36969Frenzied Finance replied in the words of Mr. Lincoln,"If we let the South go, where will we get our revenues?"
36969Have n''t Lee''s soldiers starved many a day?
36969He answered,"Yes, mother; what is it?"
36969He could not do it, but he said,"Ask your mother how much change she wants?"
36969How came these holes in it?"
36969How can this be?
36969How in the world could all those steel wires be bundled and controlled when a woman rode horseback or had to be packed in a buggy or carriage?
36969How on earth can I be calm?
36969I ai n''t got a single nigger that would be so mean as to force himself where he warn''t wanted, and what do we- uns want with you?
36969I ask who that does not wish infamy and disgrace attached to him forever would serve under you?
36969I asked her if she could get bread enough for her children by her work?
36969I called and said,"What''s the matter, Eddie?"
36969I felt, rather than thought it-- but, had I really found her heart?
36969I have come here to inquire whether you have a lad by the name of McCarthy a prisoner?"
36969I laughed and said:"Did you ever meet Barbara Frietchie?"
36969I tould him,''And what have you to say to what you done to our poor fellows?''
36969I wonder what is best?
36969I, therefore, a helpless woman whom you have cruelly wronged, address you, a Major- General of the United States army, and demand why this was done?
36969If I turned and lost my way entirely, what would become of me on such a night?
36969If one of my gells comes to you, you''ll give her a fair chance to shoot straight, wo n''t you, boys?"
36969If she drew her faded skirt-- ever a black one, in that case-- from the passing blue, was it"treason,"or human nature?
36969In Richmond, Atlanta, Charleston and elsewhere was she bitter and unforgiving?
36969Indeed, why?
36969Instead of taking it out of his vest pocket, father opened his pocket- book and said,"Did you say you wanted ten dollars or ten cents, my boy?"
36969Is it not, then, wonderful that soldiers whose families have suffered such things could be restrained when in a hostile country?
36969Is it possible that you abandoned your comrades and deserted your colors in the presence of the enemy without any reason?"
36969Is n''t it lucky it''s my left hand?"
36969Is not the whole land before thee?
36969Is she one of them Lees?"
36969Is she the daughter of whom you speak?"
36969Kin you gim me sich a thing as a b''iled sweet pur- r- rta- a- a- tu- ur?
36969My health and life are worth less than those of my brothers, and if they give theirs to the cause, why should not I do the same?
36969Oh, God, shall I ever again hear a cheer which bears a man''s whole soul in it?
36969Perceiving by the light of a brilliant moon that at least a half dozen men in uniforms were on the piazza, I asked:"Who is there?"
36969Said one of his neighbors:"Hello, John; the Yankees whipped you, did they?"
36969Shall I write a letter for you?
36969She is in ward G. What shall I do with her?"
36969She knitted and gazed, and at last inquired"who was them ar''soldiers, and whar''was they a- going to?"
36969She must have felt me shudder, for she turned pale as death, and, catching her breath at every word, she said,''Have you come without your furlough?
36969Slowly the dear old lady rose And tottering forward came, And peering dimly through her"specks,"Said,"Honey, what''s your name?"
36969Some ladies ran from a house which happened to stand just in front of his line, and asked him anxiously,"What shall we do, General, what shall we do?"
36969Somebody''s hand hath rested there, Was it a mother''s, soft and white; Or have the lips of a sister fair Been baptized in their waves of light?
36969Springing from the bed, he said:"What is it, my child?"
36969Tell me, have I saved the honor of Mary and Lucy?"
36969The man stepped out, laid his hand on my bridle and said:"Stop, lady, you can go no further; but where are you going?"
36969The young lady shrunk from the muzzle, and said:"How do I know?"
36969Then what?
36969Then why not, as Greeley and Phillips and thousands of Northern patriots urged, why not let these States go?
36969Then why should there be war?
36969There he said to the"farm hands:""Do n''t you know that a gentleman never dines without his coat?
36969They asked me,''What have you in that bag?''
36969They had no money-- the city had already given its part-- what could be done?
36969Thus the South was the mother of territories, and was it not natural that she should talk of territories and of her rights in the territories?
36969Tom, old fellow, what makes you start?
36969Turning to the prisoner, I asked,"What did you do when you received this letter?"
36969Was I to fail altogether of my mission?
36969Was it for this that you turned me, my young daughter, and little son out upon the world without a shelter?
36969Was it to the Union or to his State?
36969Was she"unreconstructed?"
36969Was the war between the States in 1861 a war in behalf of slavery on the one side and freedom on the other?
36969What could the Southern States do under such an insulting ultimatum from the triumphant North?
36969What did they do?
36969What did we ever do to you''uns that you should come a- killing our brothers and sons?
36969What for do you want us to live with you''uns, you poor white trash?
36969What had Mrs. Scott and her children done?
36969What of the negro?
36969What right have you to expect anything from us?"
36969What shall I do?
36969What should I do?
36969What surgeons in any age or in any war excelled the Confederate surgeons in skill, ingenuity or courage?
36969What was my offence?
36969What was the ground issue which held the Northern States so desperately on their crusade against the South?
36969What was the main spring of the Free Soil crusade?
36969What was working in that poor mind?
36969When the war is over, where shall we find our old churches, where her noble homesteads, scenes of domestic comfort and generous hospitality?
36969Where the little girls who carded and spun and knitted to help their mothers clothe the naked soldiers?
36969Where the women who with tireless energy ministered night and day to the sick and wounded and spoke words of hope to the dying?
36969Where the young girls who stood by the wayside to feed the hungry and quench the thirst of the men on their long and weary marches?
36969Where was the union?
36969Who begrudges a moment for the record of her patriotic services and unremitting toil?
36969Who can wonder that the heads of these poor ignorant people were turned and their moral natures poisoned?
36969Who does not see in her a glorious lesson?
36969Who was at the head of the domestic establishment?
36969Who was to blame for it all?
36969Who was to look after the sick when, as frequently happened, the physician was miles away?
36969Who was to superintend and see to all this if not a woman?
36969Who were the women of 1861?
36969Who would dare to wipe out to- day a State''s individuality?
36969Who, indeed, if not the mistress?
36969Who?
36969Why do I say this?
36969Why had I fainted?
36969Why not?
36969Why should they suffer?
36969Why was it that I could not meet one of them?
36969Would you mind seeing if he is all right?"
36969and who asked your permission, sir?
36969and"Where are you from?"
36969do you call this mob of retreating cowards an army?
36969how was it?"
36969if you are soldiers, why do n''t you stand and fight the savage wolves that are coming upon us defenceless women and children?"
36969oh, God!-how will- they endure it?"
5661At what?
5661Did you fire?
5661Well?
5661Among the trees-- what?
5661And the horse and its rider?
5661But how ascertain if the enemy is there?
5661So long as he advances, the line will not fire,--why should it?
5661Was there anybody on the horse?"
5661What good or bad angel came in a dream to rouse him from his state of crime, who shall say?
5661What is more dampening than a seeming lack of appreciation?
5661Would one exception have marred too much the pitiless perfection of the divine, eternal plan?
44702About how many?
44702Are n''t you very tony? 44702 Could I ask you to take some money to one of my men?"
44702Did he do the same by your neighbors?
44702Did you marry Belle Cooke last year?
44702Do n''t you think you are taking a great risk?
44702Had they all gone?
44702Have they been exchanged?
44702Have they ever been made prisoners?
44702Have they got recruits there now?
44702How about your railroad fare?
44702How are they?
44702How far up or down the river is there such a ferry?
44702How is that?
44702How so?
44702How so?
44702How was that, sister?
44702How were they treated?
44702How will we know when we get there?
44702Is he a non- commissioned officer?
44702Is that the way you do? 44702 Outside in this hard rain?
44702Sister, ca n''t you tell me something more about them?
44702Sister,I persisted,"if they had some money would it be of any help to them?"
44702Then, will you kindly bring it in to me when you come in tomorrow morning?
44702What are you going to do?
44702What do we want of the sheriff?
44702What do you read?
44702What do you want of turpentine?
44702What do you want?
44702What is it?
44702What is it?
44702What is it?
44702What is your business?
44702What is your name, rank, regiment and where and when were you captured?
44702What''s your name?
44702Where are you going?
44702Where does he stop?
44702Where in the North were they confined?
44702Where is his office?
44702Who are you?
44702Who is he?
44702Who is your ranking officer?
44702Why did n''t you tell me that before?
44702Why not?
44702Why not?
44702Why should we not draw our pay?
44702Will you be going there again soon?
44702Will you take the dogs in so that I can come in?
44702Would you kindly get me a half pint of good spirits of turpentine?
44702Yes,I replied,"but is it not a greater one to remain here?"
44702Yes,I said,"but how about prisoners of war and especially those who have made their escape?
44702Yes,I said,"but what would it do to you?
44702Yes,he said,"we have been given away, but how shall we get out of this muss?"
44702You tell me I lie, do you?
44702About 10 o''clock we heard dogs, and said:"Hastings, what is that?"
44702After a few days, when we were getting rested, I would hear:"What is it we hear about Libby, Belle Island and Andersonville?
44702After a little, the youngest daughter began to rub her eyes and shed tears, and said:"Mister, we wo n''t tell on you uns, will we mar?"
44702After we were in the stockade the main topic of conversation was:"Was it possible to get out of there?"
44702But the question was:"How did he get onto it?"
44702Captain Aldrich came up, took hold of my right arm and said:"Are not those the guerrillas?"
44702Could I ask you to take it out and sell it for me that I might buy something with the money to help me?"
44702Did you tell me your name was D. A. Langworthy, Captain of Company''E'', 85th New York?"
44702Do you suppose they will take us?"
44702Have any of you got a bottle?"
44702He asked us:"What is the news?"
44702He came up and said,"Captain, where is that bottle?"
44702He said,"I suppose you know there is an order forbidding us to pay officers or men if they are away from their command?"
44702He said:"Why do you wish to go to the jail yard?"
44702He then said:"Am I the first Yankee you have met?"
44702He then said:"Captain, you do not have much to read do you?"
44702He was met by the officer in command of our guard, who saluted and inquired:"Is this Captain Wirtz?"
44702I recognized one of them, and asked our captain of the guard:"Who is that officer with Colonel So- and- So?"
44702I said,"Girls, why do n''t you invite me?"
44702I said:"Boys, are you from the Eighty- fifth New York?"
44702I went to one of them and said:"Sister, have you been out to the race course?"
44702In the afternoon one of my lieutenants said to me:"Are you going to make a break tonight?"
44702Is n''t that a terrible way to bring up children?"
44702The next morning when they came in, this prisoner approached the lieutenant and said:"Lieutenant Davis, can I presume to ask a favor of you?"
44702The next question was:"What to do with the dogs?"
44702Then the question was:"What next?"
44702They looked up and said:"How are you, captain?"
44702They said:"How far are you going?"
44702We had not gone very far before our guide was called by name by someone in the woods who said:"Where are you going?"
44702We said:"Hastings, how about that?"
44702What do you want me to do?"
44702What is your military rule when you meet in this way?
44702What provision is there for them?"
44702When were you paid last?"
44702Which of you officers is in command?"
44702Who else is there down here from Elmira?"
44702Who is in command?"
44702Why was n''t our boys''camp here instead of over there on that hill?
44702Would it pay?
44702and jumped up, embraced me and said:"Captain, did n''t you know us?"
44702and soon was joined by the other two, all weeping and saying:"Mister, we wo n''t tell on you uns, will we mar?"
44702inquired Captain Wirtz,"and what are they?"
52121And what have you there, Alexander?
52121Are you an actor?
52121Could anything be done to better the matter?
52121Did you ever see, General, the paper that brought about your promotion?
52121I say, Cuthbert, would you like to go to Richmond?
52121Is he badly hurt?
52121What is it you want?
52121What is the attraction?
52121What think you?
52121What was his leading division?
52121Where shall I find you, General, to make this report?
52121Who is the general just falling?
52121Why so, General?
52121Will this do?
52121All through the night, while passing stray troops on the road, I could hear the question,"Who have you there?"
52121At Richmond we took the oath, as prescribed, to the United States Government, the courteous Federal officer asking pleasantly if it"tasted bad?"
52121But why did we not attack on the 14th in daylight?
52121Ca n''t you send us General Lee?
52121Can not you help me?"
52121Franklin should have been, I think, the man for Lincoln; but who knows?
52121Had he been with Lee where would our commander have made his battle?
52121It amused the infantry footing it on the side paths, and they would call out,"Here comes the cavalry, but what''s that gun tied to the tail for?"
52121Quite bald, it was scarred in several places, and looking at the mark of an ugly gash I inquired,"And, General, where did you get that one?"
52121Should we not have countermined actively and fought their men off in their own galleries?
52121Some years after the war he met in Europe General McDowell, who said,"Russell, do you know what day this is?"
52121Where now is the morning''s vision of victory which Babcock raised?
52121Why not?
52121Will you have it?"
52121You have the building, I have the company; what about the rest?"
36175Aye,ses he,"what''s up?"
36175But,says he,"what about the finances?"
36175But,ses I,"Kernel, ca n''t they see how the thing has worked in places whar nigger equality has been tried?"
36175But,ses I,"suppose he should bust your bilers, what would Wall street do then?"
36175Done what?
36175Is that all?
36175Majer, what do you want them words for?
36175No,ses Seward,"what is it?"
36175Now, Majer,ses the Kernel,"you do n''t think I want to split the Union, do you?"
36175Now,ses I,"Kernel, can you tell me why this wiskey is like the Constitushin of the United States?"
36175Now,ses I,"Kernel, ef I''ll make you a Constitushinal Tellskope, will you promise me to use it?
36175Now,ses I,"Kernel, that is purty sharp, but do you know why your sickness is like the Union?"
36175Or split the Union?
36175That would be a capital idee, Majer, but how am I to do it?
36175Wal, I''de like to know,ses Linkin,"whether you think Port Royal_ was an excepshin_?"
36175Wal, Majer,ses the Kernel,"how are we to get him away?"
36175Wal, that is a fact,ses Linkin,"I never thought of that; but they will as sure as preachen do jest what the Majer ses; but what kin we do?"
36175Wal, yes, that''s so,ses Linkin,"but do n''t you see, Majer, I''ve got to break off with_ sumbody_?
36175Wal,ses I,"Kernel, are you goin to give Freemount a kommand?"
36175Wal,ses I,"Kernel, can you tell me how you think this war is goin to end?"
36175Wal,ses I,"Kernel, now kin you tell me why that fifty- cent shinplaster is like the war?"
36175Wal,ses I,"Kernel, what do you think of your visit?"
36175Wal,ses I,"Kernel, where do you carry your pocket- book?"
36175Wal,ses I,"Mr. Secketary, do you have a macheen for every Gineral and every army?"
36175Wal,ses I,"then what''s the use of changin?
36175Wal,ses I,"what do you do about the contracters?"
36175Wal,ses I,"what is it?"
36175Wal,ses Linkin, ses he,"Majer, let''s drop the nigger jest now, as I want to ask you whether you think the rebils kin take Washington?"
36175Wal,ses Linkin,"did n''t the Lord cuss the earth for man''s sins?"
36175Wal,ses Linkin,"how would they carry it when marchin?"
36175Wal,ses Linkin,"let it, who cares?
36175Wal,ses Linkin,"we want to know the condishin of your department?"
36175Wal,ses Linkin,"what am I to do?
36175Wal,ses Linkin,"where on arth kin we send''em?"
36175Wal,ses he,"Majer, I want to know whether you mean to apply that story to me?"
36175Wal,ses he,"Majer, ai nt we goin down to the land of the Secesh, and who knows but we may git in an ambushcade?"

36175Wal,ses he,"what on earth was it?"
36175Wal,ses he,"what''s posterity ever done for us?"
36175Wal,ses he,"what''s the use of swappin jackets?
36175Wal,ses the Kernel,"Majer, do n''t you think I''ve done well in keepin it together as long as I have?"
36175Wal,ses the Kernel,"what will come of it then, Majer?"
36175What''s that?
36175What''s up, Boss?
36175Why, Majer,ses he-- and he put on one of the queerest smiles I ever see on a man''s face--"don''t you know I have turned Dimmocrat?"
36175Why,ses I,"Kernel, what could you do then?"
36175Why,ses I,"Kernel, what makes you ask that questshin?"
36175Why,ses I,"how is that?"
36175Why,ses Linkin,"ai n''t you never heerd the story of the Giascutis?"
36175''Are you a coon?''
36175''Now, Mr. Jones, tell me whether you struck Dick Robinson?''
36175''Tut, tut, brother,''says the Elder,''how can you do so?
36175''Wal, Mr. Jones, did you hit Jim Wattles?''
36175''Wal, Mr. Jones,''said the Justess,''what do you mean by"sloshin around?"''
36175''Wal, will you warrant him a good dog for foxes?''
36175''Wal,''ses old Sol,''how do you make that out?''
36175After I got thru, ses I,"Kernel, what do you think of my dream?"
36175After he he d gone, ses I,"Kernel, how many times has Seward he d the rebellyun suppressed?"
36175After it was all over with and every thing had been decided on, ses Linkin, ses he,"Majer, do n''t you think that that is a capytal stratygim?"
36175After they had all got thru, Linkin turned to me, an ses he,"Majer, what do you think about this matter?"
36175After they went out Linkin ses to me, ses he,"Majer, what do you think of them fellows?"
36175After they were gone Linkin turned to me and ses he,"Majer, what do you think of that?"
36175Ai n''t we gone by the Shanandore Vally, by Jeemes River, by Manasses, an yet we ca n''t get to Richmond?
36175All the while the noise kept growin louder, an finally ses I,"Who on arth is that makin such a tarnal racket?"
36175And did n''t they do it?
36175Are you Union or Secesh?"
36175At last, ses I,"Kernel, have you tried eny of that old rye lately?"
36175At this Seward brushed up an asked him"what he meant?"
36175But I told you to keep your temper, an not take it as personal, but only as a joak?"
36175But what am I do?
36175But what do you think about our goin up to the army an reviewin the sojers, and seein whether I ai nt jest as popelar as ever I was?"
36175But, Major, how shall we go?"
36175But,"ses I,"Kernel, I''me terribul tired after this trip, an what do you say to havin a little old rye before we go to bed?"
36175But,"ses I,"do n''t you rekollect the story about''applyin the principle?''"
36175Command us to delivur The land from slavery''s chane?
36175Did n''t they say they would n''t fite to coerce the South?
36175Did n''t they say they would only defend the Capital, and would n''t invade Virginia, and did n''t they do it?"
36175Did you ever see a lot of hot swill put in a trough, an every single hog in the pen would go an stick in his snoot an get it burned?
36175Do n''t they do as you desire?"
36175Do n''t you hear de banjo?
36175Do n''t you hear de banjo?
36175Do n''t you hear de banjo?
36175Do n''t you hear de banjo?
36175Do n''t you hear de banjo?
36175Do n''t you see,"ses I,"Kernel, how nice that would work?
36175Do you suppose it would be dangerous for him to live down in Secesh, where they are burning_ cotton_ as fast as they kin?"
36175Do you think your dog is good for foxes?''
36175Do you want to take any more elder- bark tea?"
36175Does not grate Dr. Cheever,( And shall he speke in vain?)
36175Finally he turned to me and ses he,"Majer, ca n''t you help me out of this scrape?"
36175Finally ses he,"Majer, wat are you standin there for?"
36175Finally, Mr. Linkin, ses he,"Majer, wat on erth shall I do?"
36175Finally, he kicked his slipper off, and ses he,"Majer, do you know what good lether is?"
36175Finally, ses he,"Wal, Majer, will we have to give up the Union after all?"
36175Has that feller Stantin been cuttin up eny more of his capers?
36175He asked Linkin what could be done?
36175He caught rite hold of my hand, an ses he,"Majer, how are you?
36175He cum into Linkin''s room, an the Kernel ses,"Have you heerd the news, Boss?"
36175He went up, an ses he,''Who''s there?''
36175How can it be carried out?"
36175How do you feel?"
36175How many soldiers have you had?"
36175I did n''t say it out loud, but I sed, ses I,"Boss, will you let me see whether there ai n''t sumthin rong about that?"
36175I giv the tabel a rap with my hickory, and the Kernel stratened up jest like openin a jack nife, and ses he,"Was I asleep, Majer?"
36175I see the Kernel had on a high- pressure excitement, and ses I,"Hold on a minnit, Kernel, and tell me what on arth''s the matter?"
36175I told him that that was jist what Gineral Jackson always said--"Did he?"
36175I took hold of her, and felt jest like shakin her to pieces, wen I axed her, ses I,"Topsey, why do n''t you be good?"
36175If you will, it will be about as good a guide to you as ef I staid here all summer myself?"
36175Instead of a hotel, they telled us we must cook our own vitals, and what do you think they giv us?
36175Is it good?"
36175Is she hedin up stream or side- ways?
36175Jest a little while after breakfast, who should come in but Seward?
36175Jones, did you strike Tom Smith yesterday?''
36175McClellan bein compelled to retreat from Richmond, they all thought that France and England would interfere, and what was to be done?
36175Now which shall it be?
36175Now, that preserver saved your life, did n''t it?"
36175Now, the rale question is, Why have we failed?
36175Now, what is the cause of the failure?"
36175Now, what on arth am I to do?"
36175Now,"ses I,"ef L- i- n- k- i- n do n''t spell Linkin, what on arth does it spell?"
36175One day I went into the Kernel''s room, an seein he looked kinder blue about the gills, ses I,"Kernel, what''s the matter?"
36175One day the Kernel ses to me, ses he,"Majer, what do you think about McClellan''s new base on the Jeemes River?"
36175Presidint?"
36175Pretty soon a man cum along, an ses he,"Deacon, do n''t you know that the worst showers and hurry- canes we have always cum from the West?
36175Purty soon the Kernel''s eyes began to look wild, and ses he,"Majer, where do we land next?
36175Ses I,"Ai n''t it jist as easy to say that we''re goin on a military tower of obsevashin?"
36175Ses I,"Did he tech this?"
36175Ses I,"Did n''t you ever have a hole in that pocket for a day or two, and had to put your pocket- book in sum other?"
36175Ses I,"Did you kick em down stairs?"
36175Ses I,"Do n''t your Cabbynet agree in your policy?
36175Ses I,"How is that?"
36175Ses I,"Is Burnside whipped agin, or is Stonewall Jackson in our rear?"
36175Ses I,"Is that fair, Kernel, to burden posterity in that fashun?"
36175Ses I,"Is that it, Kernel?"
36175Ses I,"Kernel, ai n''t you gettin the ager?"
36175Ses I,"Kernel, do n''t you know that you said in your inaugerole that you had no rite to interfere with slavery, an that you did n''t intend to?"
36175Ses I,"Kernel, do n''t you know there is one way to get to Richmond that you ai n''t tried yet?"
36175Ses I,"Kernel, do you expect Dimmicrats are goin to support you on freein the niggers?"
36175Ses I,"Kernel, do you want me to help write your messige?"
36175Ses I,"Kernel, is black your favorite color?"
36175Ses I,"Kernel, what on arth do want of revolvers?"
36175Ses I,"Mr. Secketary, who is your engineer?"
36175Ses I,"What did you do with it then?"
36175Ses I,"What do n''t you see?"
36175Ses I,"What is the debt now?"
36175Ses I,"What is the matter, dear Topsey?"
36175Ses I,"What possesses you to act so?"
36175Ses I,"What was it?"
36175Ses I,"What was that?"
36175Ses I,"Who is me?
36175Ses I,"Why do n''t you change''em?"
36175Ses Linkin, ses he,"Majer, are you whistlin to keep your courage up?"
36175Ses Linkin,"What''s the matter, Majer?"
36175Ses he to me, kinder funnin me I thought, ses he,"Majer, will you make a bet with me?"
36175Ses he,"Did I, Majer?
36175Ses he,"Have I got the boot- jack?"
36175Ses he,"Have the rebils took Saint Lewis?"
36175Ses he,"How is that, Major?
36175Ses he,"How was that, Majer?"
36175Ses he,"How was that?"
36175Ses he,"Majer, did you ever hear of the story of a man who caught a panther by the tail?"
36175Ses he,"Majer, do you know why a man''s face is like the eend of an old- fashioned house?"
36175Ses he,"Majer, do you know why you and Seward and Stantin rollin me on the floor were like men spredin hay in a meadow?"
36175Ses he,"Majer, how do you know it was made for white men?"
36175Ses he,"Majer, what do you mean by edicated fools?"
36175Ses he,"Majer, which way does the shootin cum from?"
36175Ses he,"Majer, you''re rite, an what kin I do for you this mornin?"
36175Ses he,"Major, what would we do if Linkin dies, for he''s the only one of us left that the peeple''s got eny faith in at all?"
36175Ses he,"What is it?"
36175Ses he,"What on arth has that to do with the subjeck?"
36175Ses he,"What''s that?"
36175Ses he,"What''s your quandary?"
36175Ses he,"What?"
36175Ses he,"Why not, Majer?"
36175Ses the Deacon, ses he,"How was that, Majer?"
36175Ses the Kernel to me, the other day, ses he,"Majer, what do you think that military strutegy consists in?"
36175Ses the Kernel, ses he,"How much was that?"
36175Shall we whose harts are litened With Rye, and cake and wine, Shall we to Cuff and Dinah Give nought but crust and rine?
36175So he called the feller in putty bad close, who does chores around the White House, and asked him if he''d seen it?
36175So what''s to be done?"
36175Suppose they go thar?"
36175The Kernel looked at it very sharp, an ses he,"Majer, you ai nt going to give me rale fence to drink, are you?
36175The next mornin, when I went in the room where the Kernel was, ses he,"Majer, you look oncommon serious this mornin; what''s the matter?"
36175The question is, what is to be done?"
36175The very next day after the meeting, what do you think happened?
36175There''s Libery, how would that do, Major?"
36175Wat tho''the army hosses Die off for want of food?
36175We must take Richmond, an ai n''t we tried every way but this?
36175Wen I arriv, ses I,"Kernel, what''s the matter?"
36175Wen I handed them to the Kernel, ses he,"Majer, does Chase expect me to survive after studyin out these figgers?"
36175Wen I sed this, the Deacon knocked the ashes out of his pipe, an ses he,"Wal, Majer, wat do you think the war will amount to, enyhow?"
36175Wen I thought he was in purty good humor, ses I,"Kernel, why did you remove McClellin?"
36175Wen I went in, the Kernel had his cote off and his sleeves rolled up, an ses he,"Majer, do you know where I kin get a first- rate axe?"
36175Wen Linkin saw the name on the bottle,"Mr. Cotton, 306 Washington street, N.Y.,"ses he,"Major, do you think this is loyal wiskey?"
36175Wen he did speak, ses he,"Majer, what do these last words''in partickelar''mean?"
36175Wen he sed that I jumped rite up with my hickory, an ses I,"Ai n''t your name Salmon?"
36175Wen they heered that, it did n''t suit em at all, and a good meny yelled out,"Who are you?"
36175What is the cause of it?
36175What is the use of a President when the ballot- box ai nt of half so much account as the cartridge- box?
36175What is the use of a President when there''s a standin army?
36175What is to be done with''em?
36175What on arth can it be?
36175What on arth makes you sleep,"ses I,"rite in the middle of the day?"
36175What on arth will we do?"
36175What was I to do?
36175What was it?"
36175When I sed this, Stantin, who is quick as a flash, jumped up, an ses he,"Majer, do you mean to say that we are devils tryin to catch the South?"
36175When I went in, ses I,"''Kiah, what on airth is the matter?"
36175While it was goin down, you looked kinder anxious at Chase, and ses you,''Chase, think it will stay down?''
36175Wot tho''the Nor''-West breezes Blow sum o''er Georgetown hill, And likewise also freezes The troops at Turner''s Mill?
36175Wot tho''the Yankee nashin Pores out the warlike flud, And sogers of all stashin Are stashined in the mud?
36175Wot tho''the sly contracters Defraud us rite and left, And Uncle Sam''s old stockin''Of all his cash is reft?
36175Wot tho''the taxis plague us, And heeps of corn must spile, Wile poor folks three times over Their coffee- grounds must bile?
36175Would n''t it hev made a sensashin?"
36175_ To the Editers of The Cawcashin_: SURS:--Didn''t I tell you that, as soon as I got here, I would straiten things out?
36175ses he,"jest read that, Majer, and tell me whether you do n''t think that that infernal cuss, Stantin, ought to be kicked out of the Cabinet?"
54065At length he emerged from the tunnel, and, in answer to the question,"What success?"
54065How did you get in there, sir?"
54065If it be asked, how can a people, professing to be civilized, act thus?
54065Many were anxiously exercised upon the questions, what shall we eat?
54065Should I fall on my first field, or should I escape?
54065Should I share the joy of victory, or experience the sadness of defeat?
54065Still uncertain, I asked,"Where are the troops to relieve us?
54065The question then arose, who shall go out first?
54065There was a shade of sadness on many a brow; for we were about to go forth two by two, to separate to meet again-- when?
54065What boy''s blood has not been stirred by the story of Bunker Hill, the exploits of a Marion, and the fall of Yorktown?
54065What youth has not wept as he read the story of Warren''s death, or the sadder story of the execution of Hale, the proud young martyr of liberty?
54065Where are they now?
54065and wherewithal shall we be clothed?
54065be a prisoner in the hands of the foe, or, wounded, lie helpless among the slain and dying?
54065what shall we drink?
47332A special train which he was probably on passed about 2 p. m. But what was the use of keeping troops under arms in line all day?
47332Ai n''t I a good Yankee?
47332And would not an alert, sagacious commander have made a forced night ride in order to have been with the first of his forces on the field?
47332But does he mention any other Corps so pleasingly?
47332But how about the uneasy souls-- the remorse of those who are responsible for this war in the hereafter?
47332But if we are uncomfortable what condition must the enemy be in?
47332But what''s become of the eight lines of C. W.?
47332Could anything in Hades be any worse?
47332Did ever anyone see such stupidity?
47332Did n''t our Division have about as many killed and wounded as both the First and Second Divisions together, although smaller than either?
47332Good(?)
47332How often are such things done?
47332I wonder if this awful war will ever find an end?
47332I wonder if we are always to be rear guard?
47332I wonder what the Johnnies think of us as fighters now?
47332Is man irresponsible?
47332It is said he did give the order to do so, but if he had been a_ great_ military genius would n''t he have_ seen_ that it was done?
47332Of course, I awoke in fine spirits for how could I help it?
47332On arrival there we found there had been a great scare from Mosby but it amounted to nothing; wonder if he thinks guerrilla warfare manly?
47332Or after being continually flanked by him from the Rapidan to Petersburg and later to Appomattox where his surrender occurred?
47332Should he not have a care?
47332The query generally is,"when will the army move, and where?"
47332Think you Lee then thought himself a greater field marshal than Grant?
47332Was there any excuse for the Confederates not driving the Union forces from the field in a rout on July first?
47332Was there ever before such a shocking battlefield?
47332What does it all mean, anyway?
47332What was he in Pennsylvania for or selected and paid for handling such an important matter to the Confederacy for?
47332What, therefore, was to prevent the Second Division or Vermont Brigade from advancing?
47332When will I get out of this?
47332Where was there any infantry of any amount except in the ravine in front of the Third Division?
47332Who could have anticipated it with such conditions?
47332Who gave the order to concentrate for battle at Gettysburg but he?
47332Who was?
47332Who will say we have n''t stood up to the rack?
47332Who would n''t?
47332Who would think it?
47332Who would wish to criticise troops unfairly under such circumstances?
47332Why not give the Third Division its due?
47332Will I ever make such devoted friends again?
47332Will the historian ever correctly record it?
47332Wonder if we wo n''t be abused for all this bye and bye by other than copperheads?
47332Would either Grant or Sheridan have lost their cavalry for several days, as Lee did, when on such a campaign in an enemy''s country or anywhere else?
47332Would they not be glad to do so if they could?
47332[ 25] Did Ewell take the best advantage of his opportunities?
47332[ 27] Does not every experienced soldier know that under such circumstances no one can tell exactly at what moment a battle will commence?
47332and do it almost at once, even as brilliantly so as at Winchester a month previous?
47332but was n''t it an_ alert_ Commander''s-- a_ genius''s_--business to have been there?
51211An''will ye tell me, Jack,said his companion,"what sort of foightin''it is, ye loikes?"
51211Did you ever time this horse for a half- mile?
51211How can we, general? 51211 Is that your horse?"
51211Well, why do n''t you call a board of survey and have it condemned?
51211What do I mean? 51211 What do you mean by that, sir?"
51211What is that?
51211What''s the difference? 51211 Why, general?
51211An''sure an''_ do ye think I''m goin''to hell widout me pardner_?"
51211But what will you do when the Yankee gun- boats come up the river and begin to throw hot shot into Savannah?
51211Catching at the suggestion as a revelation of duty, she asked,"And cheerfulness makes better soldiers of the men, does it not?"
51211Did the Southerners really think themselves a match for ten times their own numbers?
51211Did you ever eat one?
51211Do n''t you call that high?
51211Do you know what I''ll do then?
51211Do you think he will advance before spring?"
51211Had we not better oblique into the woods?"
51211How did people manage to live during such a time?
51211How else were his boots and his accouterments to be kept clean, his horse to be groomed, and his meals cooked?
51211My health and my life are worth less than those of my brothers, and if they give theirs to the cause, why should not I do the same?
51211Now you''ll not disappoint me, will you?
51211Pointing to a fearful gash in his own neck, the man replied,--"Do n''t ye see I''m a dead man, captain?
51211S._ Is n''t it pretty high?
51211S._ Yes; but how about luxuries?
51211The teamster called out to his companion, in a loud voice, after the manner of deaf people:"I say, sergeant, who_ is_ that durned old fool?
51211What cared they for the failure of mere human efforts, when they were persuaded that through such failures God was leading us to ultimate victory?
51211What else were they made for?
51211What''s the use of pottering around with technicalities when the efficiency of a battery is at stake?
51211When I had finished he looked at me intently for a moment, and then asked,"Are n''t you the man who came so near shooting me at Ashland?"
51211Who shall say?
51211Why, then, the reader doubtless asks, if this was the temper of the Virginians, did Virginia secede after all?
51211Will you show me a civilian who is charging only six times the prices charged in 1860, except the teacher only?
51211You never see any coffee nowadays, do you?
51211_ Union Soldier._ Are n''t times rather hard over there, Johnny?
48142Afoot?
48142And did you visit them before you went to California?
48142And do your father and sisters live in Mississippi?
48142Are you a Southern man?
48142How much do I owe you?
48142How much do you charge?
48142I knew you were from the South,said one:"Why?"
48142Was Dick your brother?
48142Well, how do you know you are going?
48142What is your name?
48142What sort of a looking thing is a dry dock?
48142Where are we?
48142Where are you from?
48142Where are you going?
48142Where have you been?
48142Wonder if all the boys who read these lines understand about the change from sun time to railroad time?
48142Wonder what there is here?
48142After I had signed my name, he said,"Wash, do you want your furlough now?"
48142After the close of the session I approached him with the remarks:"You never saw me before?"
48142Are you ashamed of it?
48142As I spun my yarn that night around the fire- side, my sister said,"Brother, why did n''t you ask Mrs. Edmondson to send you out in a buggy?"
48142As they came up, the owner of the boat said:"Who are you?"
48142Can you curry horses?
48142Could you not do so?"
48142He easily detected me, as I had on a fur cap, very uncommon in the South, He said:"Are you ready to pay me, sir?"
48142He looks around in wonder and what do you think he sees?
48142He replied:"How are you going to get any grub?"
48142He said:"Do you know Safford in California?"
48142He said:"Do you know who he was?"
48142He said:"Do you think I am a fool?
48142He said:"Was it Ike Reader?"
48142He said:"Well, old fellow, are you loyal?"
48142He scowled at me, then said to the old lady:"Who''s this you''ve got here?"
48142Here is a nice town, some large stores, a court house and public school building, all of brick; but what on earth keeps up the town?
48142I ca n''t recall it all now, but after a while it was arranged and the man asked:"What do you want for this?"
48142I choked them down the best I could and finally said:"Yes, sir but how did you know it?"
48142I looked at the astonished lady at the end of the room and stammered out:"Is this Mrs. Edmondson?
48142I said,"How far is it to Newton?"
48142I said:"How can a man be otherwise than loyal when he comes from Beloit, Wis.?
48142I said:"How far is it from Newton now?"
48142I said:"Is there no ferry there?"
48142I said:"Mrs. Edmondson, do you remember a boy coming here two years ago and hiring a horse and buggy to go out to Garlandsville?"
48142I suppose it will be all right with you?"
48142Immediately he took my breath by saying:"You are lately from California, are n''t you?"
48142In signing my name, he asked:"Are you one of the Alabama Crumptons?"
48142Is there anybody living near here, on whom it would not be an imposition, who might let me rest until Monday morning?"
48142ONE who travels and observes could write letters indefinitely about what he sees and hears, but the question is:"How long will the readers stand it?"
48142Resuming the conversation, he said:"How is it that you are afoot?"
48142Seeing me crying in affectionate, helpless distress, the fellow had the heartless bad taste to exultingly ask:"What do you think of that, young man?"
48142Taking dinner with a farmer, who was evidently in sympathy with the Southern people, he said:"How are you going to get across the river?"
48142The next question was:"What is the name of the lecture?"
48142The next question would have been:"Do you know a young fellow by the name of Crumpton, lately from California?"
48142Was it possible, I thought, that somebody had found out my secret and had sent this chap aboard to look me out and arrest me when I reached Aspinwall?
48142What do you say?"
48142What else does man want than that which he can find in Arizona?
48142What is the attraction?
48142What was I to do?
48142What would Alabama farmers think of running a plow with six and eight horses attached?
48142Who in Alabama does not know him, and among us all, whose life has not been touched to some extent by the influence of his?
48142Why he was there I never did know, but when I had finished my speech, he said:"Did you say your name was Crumpton?"
51118Do you know who the parties are?
51118What have you been doing that they have arrested you? 51118 A man named Charley Durham who had resided at West Plains and had met me several times, rode up near us and asked me;What did you say your name was?"
51118About that time some man near the warehouse called out:"Who in hell are you?
51118After we were dressed in their old clothing, one of them asked:"What did you say your name was?"
51118And what are you doing here?"
51118Are you going to cage me?"
51118Could n''t you tie the knot upon them to hang them?"
51118Do you hear the drums and the fife?
51118Do you know what we are going to do with such men as you are?
51118Do you want us to take you up to headquarters?"
51118Had we not better accept the proposition and wait for results?"
51118He asked:"Did you ever live down here about the state line?"
51118He came to the author laughing and remarked:"You found my corn, did you?
51118Hogan stepped up to him and said,"You little rascal, would you attempt to cut me with a knife?"
51118Hogan, with an oath, said,"What are you doing with my horse?"
51118How are you getting along?
51118I asked him if he thought we would be able to remain there until morning?
51118I told him"That is my business; when you was in the military service did you inform the civilians of your object and aims?
51118I would ask him;"What''s the matter now?
51118Is that you?
51118Nicks said,"You have got him, have you?
51118On reaching the company Captain Forshee walked out of the line and remarked to them"Why have you brought him in here alive?"
51118Shall we attempt to run, or had we better pass them?"
51118The Captain came inside of the guard, called out,"Monks, are you asleep?"
51118The author asked, just as they had completed the tying,"What do you mean?
51118The author at once arose to his feet and remarked,"I am here, what is wanted?"
51118The author halted, of course, and the next remark was,"Who are you and where is the balance of your crowd?"
51118The author raised up in a sitting position and said,"Captain what is wanted"?
51118The author said to Long:"What shall we do?
51118The judge then said to him,"What about that money of yours; are you able to pay the$ 150 fine?"
51118The judge turned to him and remarked,"Mr., what did those boots cost you?"
51118The sheriff and others would come to me and say:"Colonel, why did n''t you shoot some of those fellows long ago?
51118There were four or five negro men standing upon the street corner and one of the officers holloed out to the negroes;"Which way did the rebels go?"
51118They said,"What does this mean?
51118What do think now in regard to the two parties living together?"
51118What is it that men wo n''t do?"
51118What''s the matter?"
51118Will there be no history left to tell of the heroism and devotion to their country in its darkest hour?
51118You do n''t intend to enforce it, do you, Captain?"
51118Your people may ask the question, what right have you Missourians to come down into our state?
35206And do you see that?
35206And that?
35206Are the people of this vicinity so disloyal as that?
35206Are them niggers with guns strapped on their backs your friends?
35206Are these the arms you captured in the cavern?
35206Are they all fit for service?
35206Are we white men to stand up and fight niggers in this war, as you call it? 35206 Are you a Union man, sir?"
35206Are you a Union man?
35206Are you a Union man?
35206Are you a Union man?
35206Are you a good shot?
35206Are you go''n''to take me down to Lyon''s place?
35206Are you going to fight with that?
35206Are you not going in, Levi?
35206Are you sorry for that one?
35206Are you willing to fight for your master?
35206But can you tell me the nature of the land on the right hand side of the road?
35206But can you tell me what is going on upon the hill yonder?
35206But the arms?
35206But what can we do?
35206But what did he expect to do?
35206But what has he done now? 35206 But what is your idea, Deck?"
35206But what were they doing?
35206But where are the ruffians that retreated from the new road?
35206But where have you been all the afternoon, boys?
35206But where is our army?
35206But which was the fellow you call Buck Lagger?
35206But why is the fort lighted up so late in the evening, Levi?
35206Ca n''t we make terms?
35206Ca n''t you go with me? 35206 Ca n''t you hear me, you black rascals?"
35206Can horses travel on it?
35206Can the negroes be trusted? 35206 Can you see anything of our people over there, Deck?"
35206Can you tell me where my father and the rest of them are?
35206Captain Gadbury, will you ride around through the fields to Captain Deck, and ask him to let the mob move down the road toward the bridge? 35206 Certainly; what else can I do at a time like this?"
35206Could you see what sort of guns they had?
35206Did he have any reason for treating me any wus than he did you?
35206Did he say anything about that story your mother told at dinner?
35206Did it hit anything, boys?
35206Did n''t he give five thousand dollars to that cuss that just rid over the bridge?
35206Did n''t you hear us say we would protect him to the last drop of our blood?
35206Did n''t you see anything of them before you turned into the cut- off?
35206Did you believe it?
35206Did you catch any fish?
35206Did you ever fire a rifle?
35206Did you go near them, Mose?
35206Do n''t you own''em?
35206Do n''t you see that the colonel has halted his force? 35206 Do n''t you think we had better put out the lights in the fort, Colonel Belthorpe?"
35206Do you believe they have discovered the loss so soon?
35206Do you believe what I say, Noah?
35206Do you call stealing my property the same thing as a nation taking possession of forts and such things within its own territory, Noah Lyon?
35206Do you expect to get into any trouble, my boy?
35206Do you know how to use this piece?
35206Do you know that man with the flag, Squire Truman?
35206Do you know what this flag means, you nigger?
35206Do you mean to accuse me of bein''drunk, Noah Lyon?
35206Do you mean to murder us?
35206Do you mean to say that you shall join the army, father?
35206Do you remember that time about a fortnight ago when father spoke to me about being out so late one night, Deck?
35206Do you see that?
35206Do you suppose the boxes contained bodies, Artie?
35206Do you think I am in any danger from such an outrage as you suggest?
35206Do you think of hanging him, Levi?
35206Do you think they will make another attack upon Riverlawn, Levi?
35206Does my brother Titus live near Riverlawn?
35206Does she know where?
35206Had n''t we better fire at them?
35206Has it come to this in the State of Kentucky, the second to be admitted into the Union? 35206 Has the time come when free speech in behalf of this glorious Union is to be put down?"
35206Have n''t you got your eyes open yet? 35206 Have you an American flag, Major Lyon?"
35206Have you been to breakfast, Lieutenant?
35206Have you brought your jackets or coats with you, boys?
35206Have you come over here under a flag of truce to say that?
35206He struck you for telling me, did he?
35206Help you take your things off, missus?
35206How are we going to get up a company of cavalry without horses?
35206How do you do, Titus?
35206How far is it from this town to Barcreek?
35206How far off are they?
35206How far off is this party at the fire?
35206How is that?
35206How long do you think it will take me with the force at hand to move the boathouse out of the way, Major Lyon?
35206How many do you want, Major Lyon?
35206How many have you?
35206How many horses are there on the place now, Frank?
35206How many men do you need?
35206How many men will it take to manage one of the guns in the fort?
35206I suppose these recruits will assist us in the defence of the place?
35206I suppose you are acquainted with the country about here, Lieutenant?
35206I suppose you have relatives in Tennessee?
35206I wonder where they are?
35206If a man has two brothers, and one of them goes back on him, is that any reason why the other should go back on him?
35206If the time is so short, why did n''t you start out this morning? 35206 If you think it was not right, why do n''t you contest the will, and have it set aside?"
35206Is it a Yankee or a Kentucky notion, Artie?
35206Is n''t Sandy trying to rope Artie into the Home Guards, Dexter?
35206Is n''t it strange that he never says anything to you about politics, especially such as we are having now?
35206Is n''t this a free building?
35206Is that talking plainly enough?
35206Is that you, Mars''r Cunnel?
35206Is there any other way they can get to your house than over that bridge?
35206Major Lyon, do those rascals know that you took possession of the military stores, or do they only guess at it?
35206Shall you remain here, Colonel?
35206Suppose he gets himself into trouble?
35206Surrender? 35206 That is the idea, is it?"
35206The boys?
35206Then he will be our fourth recruit?
35206Then why do n''t you join your friends?
35206Then you are satisfied that Uncle Titus has a lot of arms hid away somewhere in this region?
35206Then you have had trouble over there?
35206This is not exactly a fraternal meeting, and there is only one question which is in order: Do you surrender?
35206Very well, I give you the order to that effect; but do n''t you think some older person than Dexter had better be in command?
35206W''at we gwine to do, Mars''r Bedford?
35206We can look through the port- holes, ca n''t we?
35206Well, Bitts, what''s the matter now?
35206Well, what do you guess was in those boxes?
35206Well, what is it, I should like to know? 35206 Were the boxes all of the same kind?"
35206Whar all de boxes come from?
35206Whar we gwine, mars''r?
35206What are they about now?
35206What are those niggers doing over on the other side of the creek?
35206What are we stopping here for, father? 35206 What are we to do with all these arms and ammunition when we get them down to Riverlawn?"
35206What are you doing here, Artie Lyon?
35206What are you doing here, Tilford?
35206What are you doing over here, Uncle?
35206What are you doing up the creek, then? 35206 What are you doing with the wagon over here?"
35206What are you go''n''to do about it?
35206What are you go''n''to do with me, Bedford?
35206What are you going to do with all these horses?
35206What are you laughing at, boys?
35206What are you up to, Deck?
35206What company? 35206 What did he say, then?"
35206What did they want to do with the boxes? 35206 What do you mean by Abolitionists, Buck?"
35206What do you mean by that?
35206What do you mean, you scoundrel, by stickin''your nose in where you''re not wanted?
35206What do you suppose that means?
35206What do you suppose these stone walls are for, Artie?
35206What do you suppose they were putting them in the boat for?
35206What do you want here?
35206What do you want now, Sam?
35206What do you want of me?
35206What do you want, then?
35206What do you want?
35206What does that mean?
35206What does the surrender amount to, Colonel?
35206What have they stopped there for, Colonel Belthorpe?
35206What in the world are you doing now, Levi?
35206What in the world is going on here to- night, Noah?
35206What interest has Sandy in that meeting? 35206 What is it, Levi?"
35206What is it? 35206 What is the matter, General?"
35206What is to be the end of all these disturbances, Noah?
35206What is your business here at this time of night?
35206What is your business here?
35206What is your business here?
35206What is your name, my boy?
35206What is your name?
35206What is yours?
35206What kind of ground is it over on the left of this road, Tom?
35206What news? 35206 What shall be done, father?"
35206What skirmish?
35206What sort of bosh is that?
35206What was your plan, Buck?
35206What will you charge for printing two hundred copies of that bill, and doing it while I wait?
35206What''s that, father?
35206What''s this? 35206 Where are you going now, Clinker?"
35206Where are you going now, papa?
35206Where are you going to find your soldiers when you want them, Major Lyon?
35206Where are you going, father?
35206Where are you going? 35206 Where are you going?"
35206Where did you get the name of this fort, Major Lyon?
35206Where does this Buck live?
35206Where have you had any such experience, Dexter?
35206Where in the world have you been, boys?
35206Where is Colonel Belthorpe, General?
35206Where is Major Lyon?
35206Where is Major Lyon?
35206Where is Mose?
35206Where is he going?
35206Where is he?
35206Where is my father, Frank?
35206Which one, Major?
35206Who are these men coming into the road just ahead of us?
35206Who are you, boy?
35206Who can that be?
35206Who goes there?
35206Who is driving that team?
35206Who is sick at Lyndhall, Sam?
35206Who says I ca n''t?
35206Who was it?
35206Who''s me?
35206Why did n''t you try it on Major Lyon''s girls first, for that would have brought the matter nearer home?
35206Why do n''t we fire at them, Captain?
35206Why do n''t you fire at the moon? 35206 Why do n''t you talk to him, father?"
35206Why, what has been the trouble, Kate?
35206You are a big fellow; did you ever fire a gun?
35206You are a lawyer, Colonel; ca n''t Captain Titus recover these arms by process of law?
35206You did not find out anything for certain?
35206You done see''em on de road, mars''r Deck?
35206You have been shopping this forenoon, have n''t you, Ruth?
35206You remember that story about the arms and equipments I told you this morning? 35206 You think the ruffians are coming over here to- night, do you, Colonel Cosgrove?"
35206You wo n''t give em''up, wo n''t yer?
35206Are we men to be badgered and silenced by half a score of blackguards and ruffians?
35206Bedford?"
35206Bedford?"
35206Belthorpe?"
35206But what was it for?"
35206Ca n''t you see that you have got home?"
35206Did n''t Aunt Amelia say that the arms were concealed near the river?"
35206Did you light one of them?"
35206Did you see anything of them, Levi?"
35206Do you cal''late on fighting the whole county?"
35206Do you know what became of the flatboat with which the conspirators moved the cases up to the cavern?"
35206Do you mean the ruffians you have led over here?
35206Do you suppose Uncle Titus has really bought the arms and things as mother says?"
35206Falkirk?"
35206Has anything broken?"
35206Has he enlisted in the Confederate army?"
35206Have you any further communication to make to this meeting, Captain Lyon?"
35206Have you any gunners?"
35206How were you going up to Big Bend, Major?"
35206I suppose you know the place, Major?"
35206I suppose you know what a flank movement is, fellow- soldier?"
35206Is there any boat on that side of the river?"
35206Is there any way by which the ruffians can get over at your boat- pier?"
35206Must I pay you twenty- five hundred dollars on this account?"
35206Now things have come to such a pass that I must put a direct question to you: Are you a Union man or a Secessionist?"
35206Now, do you surrender, or shall I order my men to fire?"
35206Now, what force can we take into the field?"
35206So you are recruiting at Riverlawn for the Abolition army?"
35206Some one said you had served in an artillery company in Tennessee, Mr. Bedford; is that so?"
35206To what am I indebted for this unexpected visit to Riverlawn?"
35206Was n''t that cheating me out of my share of the thirty thousand they would bring even in these shaky times?"
35206Wat''s dat?"
35206What are you about?
35206What are you going to do next, Major Lyon?"
35206What can you expect?
35206What has she done?
35206What is the first thing to be done?"
35206What is your counsel, Major?"
35206Who is the other gentleman?"
35206Why do n''t you come to the point without going around all the buildings on the plantation?"
35206Why do n''t you enlist in the Confederate army, and carry out your principles?
35206Why does Sandy wish to prevent Artie from attending the Union meeting to- morrow night?"
35206Why not establish the office here, where we shall be able to protect you?"
35206You mean that they were going to put them in the cavern by the sink?"
35206and why did n''t you let me know sooner that you were going to set the creek on fire?
50970Are you akin to David Hepler?
50970Boys,he continued,"supposing it should become necessary for us to separate into two squads, how''ll we divide?"
50970But just now, where did you come from just now?
50970Can it be that they have been caught?
50970Can it be,said Smith,"that Averill''s cavalry are on a raid through here?"
50970Has n''t any one been to mill?
50970He lived in Cincinnati, did he, and belonged to Company-------- Regiment, Ohio Volunteers?
50970How about the keys; do n''t the whites get up and unlock?
50970How many were there in the squad?
50970O, one or two,answered Childs,"but they were in a hurry, and did n''t stay long?"
50970We do n''t have to stand picket in the night- time; we do n''t have to march, skirmish, and frequently fight in the night- time, I suppose?
50970Well, this is Lewis''s house, is it?
50970What do you want?
50970What does this mean?
50970What''s your name?
50970Where is Lewis?
50970Why do n''t you get up, then?
50970You did n''t say any thing about us, then?
50970As I was sitting next him, he took hold of my pants at the knee, and inquired rather roughly,"Where do you belong?"
50970As he neared the shore on which we stood we asked,"Are you a brother- in- law to Alderman?"
50970As he was endeavoring to gain the shelter of the bushes the woman noticed him shying off and asked,"What are you afeared of?"
50970As he was staring at us, we accosted him with,"How are you, old fellow?"
50970As it was also half inquisitive, the woman answered that there was a company of soldiers not far off, and asked,"An''t you one of''em?"
50970As soon as we were at leisure he asked,"Are you the boys that came in from prison two days ago?"
50970At the same moment we halted, and Sutherland put his hand to his mouth and asked if any whites were about?
50970Did those who had not finished dinner, now finish it?
50970Giving each of us a hearty shake of the hand, he said,"I know where you are from; will you have some coffee?"
50970He refused to even get out of bed, whereupon Sutherland demanded,"Shall we burst your door down?"
50970He then put his mouth to the string- hole and asked,"Is any body at home?"
50970If asked why so?
50970It was the 30th of March, after we had dressed ourselves anew, when Smith came to me in Lytle Barracks, saying,"Where''s Wood and Sutherland?"
50970On seeing us, Wood approached, saying to the negro,"Where did you come from?"
50970Since we had already traveled twenty miles without rest or sleep, the question was, Can we reach the picket- post by dark?
50970Smith then asked,"Did n''t that man at Camp Reynolds say that Phillips did business near the Public Landing?"
50970Sutherland then asked,"Did you ever see or hear of any Yankee prisoners escaping through here before?"
50970Sutherland then asked,"Smith, where is Taylor?
50970Sutherland then said,"I wonder where Davis and Tige are by this time?"
50970The man said,"That rests with you,"and inquired,"Who are you, and where are you going?"
50970The query then arose, shall we hide in the open woods on our left, or in the inclosed woods on our right?
50970Was supper prepared?
50970Was there time for coffee?
50970We continued talking with Childs, however, and Smith said to him,"I suppose you have n''t reported us, have you?"
50970We pressed on, however, and in the course of an hour we met a man of whom we asked,"How far is it to the pickets?"
50970When we were ready to leave the river this question arose: what shall we do with our canoe-- tie it up or allow it to float down the river?
50970Wood, addressing the largest of the men, asked,"Your name is Lewis, I suppose?"
50970an''t he coming?"
50970and Wood added,"and come in and burst your noggin?"
50970dat so?"
58480What are you here for?
58480But may I not be indulged in a few reflections which seem to claim a relationship with the events herein narrated?
58480What should we do?
58480and"How are you, Val?"
5854I presume that some one said to the Governor about this time,"Why do n''t you get Sheridan?"
5854This feature was more than acceptable to the parents at times, for how else could they so thoroughly learn all the neighborhood gossip?
58531''How far is it?''
58531''Which way is that?''
58531Bought(?)
58531By whom?
58531Echo answered,''Where are we at?''
58531Said the lieutenant to the guide:''Where is Port Hudson?''
58589:45 p.m."LIEUTENANT- GENERAL GRANT:"Would it not be well for Warren to go down with his whole corps and smash up the force in front of Sheridan?
5858He remaining mounted, spoke first to me, saying simply,"How are you, Sheridan?"
5858I assured him with thanks that I was"first- rate,"when, pointing toward the village, he asked,"Is General Lee up there?"
57212Ah,replied the General,"has the Doctor returned?
57212And pray, why not?
57212But,I said,"General, if you should die, what do you wish me to say to your wife?"
57212Can we get something to eat?
57212What do they say?
57212Which way were they going?
57212He met me with:"Well, Dr. Quintard, what can I do for you?
57212He took for his text on that occasion:"If thou hast run with the footmen and they have wearied thee, then how canst thou contend with horses?
57212His reply was:"How can you ask such a question, when you know as well as I do what has happened?"
57212I presented him for ordination and preached the sermon, from the text:"What shall one then answer the messengers of the nation?
57212I said to him;"My dear Colonel, what is the matter with you?"
57212Where does he officiate?
57212Will you walk in?"
57212Would you mind exchanging with me for a little while?"
57212and if in the land of peace, wherein thou trustedst they wearied thee, then how wilt thou do in the swelling of Jordan?"
57212why do n''t we attack them?"
43590''General, your men do n''t appear to work well to- day?'' 43590 Do you know of any instance where volunteer troops have successfully stormed works as strong as those which defend the approach to Secessionville?"
43590Do you mean Governor Stevens?
43590Have you a thousand men at your disposal, and suffer yourself to be set at defiance by a wagon- master? 43590 Have you any reason to believe that the result in the present case will be different in its character from what it has invariably been heretofore?"
43590Is Governor Stevens your father? 43590 Now, how are we here as at a post?
43590Should I speak to you of things that happened long ago, as you have done? 43590 What effect would it have on the Sound should nothing be done until May or June?
43590A principal chief of the lower Spokanes said:"Why is the country in difficulty again?
43590After a pause of some minutes Governor Stevens said:--"I will ask Ambrose where is Victor?"
43590Again, what is the interest of the Hudson Bay Company?
43590And is not something due the_ morale_ of his troops, which was almost systematically broken by the blunders and disasters of this unhappy campaign?
43590And what was the duty of those having forces at their command?
43590And why should I hide anything?
43590Are their wishes to be disregarded?
43590Ask yourself this question to- night:''Will not God be angry with me if I neglect this opportunity to do them good?''
43590Can more be said for the gallantry and devotion of the soldiers, or the hold upon them of their heroic leader?
43590Can you presume, sir, to be able to correct your opinions by a hasty visit to the Sound for a few days?
43590Could the country expect it?
43590Did I write you that his conduct on the battlefield was witnessed by the rebels with great admiration?
43590Did we propose to hold a council with them, or ask them for advice?
43590Do Alexander and Michelle speak in the same way?
43590Do you agree to this treaty?--the treaty placing the Pend Oreilles and Koo- te- nays on this reservation?
43590Do you think, because your mother was white and theirs black, that you are higher or better?
43590Do you want peace or war?"
43590Does Victor mean to say that he will neither let Alexander come to his place nor go to Alexander''s?"
43590Does he not know that Mr. Burr and another man went to Fort Benton the other day?"
43590Does he prefer the Yakima reservation to that of the Nez Perces?
43590Dumb as a dog?
43590Ever since I have been thinking, How will the governor speak to us?
43590Foiled in their plot, why did they then so quickly agree to the treaties, which up to that time they had so bitterly spurned?
43590From what you have said, I think that you intend to win our country, or how is it to be?
43590Governor Stevens:"Alexander, did you agree yesterday to give up your country and join Victor?"
43590Governor Stevens:"Does Victor want to treat?
43590Governor Stevens:"How can Moses say I am not going to the Blackfoot country?
43590Governor Stevens:"I will ask you, my children, if you fully understand all that was said yesterday?
43590Have all of you talked straight?
43590Have we not told your messenger yesterday that our hearts are not Cuyuse hearts?
43590Have you not always done well?
43590He had labored only for their good as their friend, and could they wonder that he was grieved at this state of affairs?
43590How long could his scanty force of nine regiments, outflanked and overborne, have resisted the avalanche?
43590I ask Alexander, are you willing to go on the same reservation with the Flatheads and Koo- te- nays?
43590I ask Michelle, are you willing to go on the same reservation with the Flatheads and Pend Oreilles?
43590I ask Victor if he declines to treat?"
43590I ask Victor, are you willing to go on the same reservation with the Pend Oreilles and Koo- te- nays?
43590I ask again, what is the interest of the Hudson Bay Company?
43590I ask them, Why are you in such a hurry to have writings for your lands now?
43590I ask you now, can you all agree to live on one reservation?
43590I said to the Sun chief,''What is the reason you are getting into trouble?
43590In the late sad, glorious fight where were you?
43590Is he, as one of his people has called him, an old woman?
43590Speaking Owl, a Nez Perce chief and the mouthpiece of Looking Glass, now spoke up and said,"Will you give us back our lands?
43590Suppose you show me goods, shall I run up and take them?
43590That not an Indian in the whole course of the war has been killed by the whites except in battle?
43590The question was, What should be our route home?
43590Three Feathers:"Why do n''t you get up and say you are all going with Governor Stevens?
43590Was he to remain idle and let the storm come?
43590Was not his life wonderfully preserved?
43590What are their hearts to us?
43590What do you, Victor, Alexander, and Michelle, think?
43590What is it that he wants?
43590What is the reason we are talking about treaties?
43590What is the reason?
43590What is the remedy for this state of things?
43590What means of defense had the enemy at this juncture?
43590What more can I do?
43590What should he do?
43590What was your reply?
43590When Looking Glass asked you,''How long will the agent live with us?''
43590When did you kill me?
43590When we were enemies I always crossed over there, and why should I not now when we are friends?
43590Where are they?
43590Where are they?
43590Where is his heart?
43590Where is the heart of Young Chief?
43590Which is the one?"
43590Which of these chiefs[ pointing to the Blackfeet] says we are not to go there?
43590While the Nez Perces are going straight, why should they turn aside to follow others?
43590Who ever finds the Highlanders behind?
43590Who that knows Jackson''s career can doubt his will and power to seize the golden opportunity?
43590Why are they not hanged?
43590Why are those Americans alive now?
43590Why ca n''t Mansfield be sent here, and both Hunter and Benham relieved?
43590Why can not you manage to keep peace?
43590Why did he not say to Alexander yesterday,''Come to my place''?
43590Why did he promise to come here, then, to hear our talk?
43590Why did you not answer and say''Come''?"
43590Why did you not inform me of your presence in the Sound on your arrival at Steilacoom?
43590Why did you not say,''Yes, come to my place''?"
43590Why do n''t you wait until a treaty is made?
43590Why do you come here and ask three chiefs to come to a council, while to the head chief and the rest you say nothing?
43590Will they go to the valley with Victor, or to the mission with Alexander and Michelle?
43590Will you accept my offer?"
43590Would you have expected it?
43590Your old men have spoken, and where is the man will turn his back on it?"
43590or is not Victor a chief?
43590you might have replied by asking the question,''How long have you been head chief of the Nez Perces?''
5859As I drew up by the party, Bismarck accosted me with,"Well, General, are n''t you hungry?
5859Offering the flask to his uncle, he said:"You''ve had a hard day of it; wo n''t you refresh yourself?"
5860What appointment?
5860When he did speak it was to ask:"Grant, how many wolves do you think there are in that pack?"
5860will you work?
37672''Spose I''d stand by and see one of my class knocked endwise by a lot of roughs? 37672 ''_ Et tunc-- pugna-- bant pug-- nis_''----"Who supplies the ellipsis?
37672Ah, did it?
37672And was nobody hurt?
37672And you can guide us right to the spot?
37672Anything unusual about?
37672Are you ill, Lawton?
37672Are you sure about the troops,--about the number? 37672 Are you sure of what you say?"
37672At once, do you mean?--right after the class ran after me into Mr. Meeker''s room?
37672But Lawton never borrowed and did n''t owe anybody,--in school, I mean?
37672But how''d you get here?
37672But was it so, sir? 37672 Ca n''t you suppress this somehow?"
37672Captain Winthrop, will you favor me?
37672Could you find no better way of spending your play hours than going around among low firemen?
37672Did he owe any of the boys,--Hoover, for instance?
37672Did n''t you tell me Prime was down there, somewhere?
37672Did the patrol stop at your outpost?
37672Did the whole class follow? 37672 Did you see any troops?"
37672Did you speak to any of them? 37672 Did you wish to see me, sir?"
37672Do n''t ye remember Desmond, 28''s Engine?
37672Do you mean you ran to Twenty- sixth Street and back in that time?
37672Do you mean your boys would all go, no matter how far south they were ordered?
37672Except what?
37672Folks ill?
37672Gone, Mr. Joy? 37672 Has none of the boys missed anything besides Joy,--no trinkets, rings, anything?"
37672Has our friend Snipe often been in need of money?
37672Have n''t I seen you at the Primes''in Fourteenth Street,said he,"and are n''t you Regy Prime''s-- Shorty''s-- chum whom they called Snipe?"
37672He was there still when you came out?
37672Hear anything?
37672How came it that you could stand and see your major down with a dozen rebs around him and make no effort at rescue?
37672How could you get your cap, sir?
37672How long did you stay in there?
37672How many young gentlemen of the First Latin deserve half holiday? 37672 How''d you come to take him?
37672How''d you know me so quick?
37672I understand,said the major, inclining his head;"but does your mother know now?"
37672I, sir? 37672 If Snipe ever stole, why did n''t he steal my watch?"
37672In fun, I suppose?
37672In point of fact, sir,interposed the provost- marshal,"did you not recognize the messenger and have reason to know that his story was true?
37672In the name of all that''s preposterous, Regy, what are you doing here?
37672Is this all you can find?
37672Is you gen''lemen-- Yankees?
37672Know what''s up, orderly?
37672May I say a word, sir?
37672No message-- telegraphic?
37672Say, boy, what deestrick d''you run to now?
37672Say, did that cur tell on me?
37672Say, sonny, did you git square with that Metamora gang before you come away?
37672Tell Mr. Hulker I want to speak to him out here a minute, will you?
37672That brown- eyed young fellow I''ve seen round your tent?
37672That young feller''s-- that was in here just now? 37672 The bleeding?"
37672The horses? 37672 Was he well pounded?"
37672Was n''t I, Brodrick? 37672 Was that red- headed specimen there yet when you came up, Martigny?"
37672Well, did n''t you assure Dix and Julian that Columbia would admit them without examination whenever they knocked at the doors? 37672 What are those fellows planning, do you s''pose?"
37672What became of the despatch, I say?
37672What brings you here?
37672What d''you s''pose they signal for?
37672What do you mean?
37672What do you see or hear?
37672What do your people say, Captain Stark?
37672What is it?
37672What is your captain''s name?
37672What news of Lawton, sir? 37672 What on earth have you been doing with yourself?"
37672What''s coming next?
37672What''s he heard, d''you s''pose?
37672What''s the matter, Joy?
37672What''s the reason Hoover is n''t at school?
37672When did the Doctor give you this?
37672When you came out, do you mean?
37672When-- and how?
37672Where was Prime? 37672 Where was the letter written-- Lawton''s letter-- that you took to the Doctor this morning?"
37672Where were you when the class followed me into the other room?
37672Where''d you get that watch?
37672Where''d you hear it?
37672Where''d you leave them? 37672 Where''s Hoover?"
37672Where''s Julian?
37672Where''s he?
37672Where''s the papers you took from this-- young man?
37672Who did you say you were?
37672Who is Shorty?
37672Who is it?
37672Who ordered him confined? 37672 Who ordered this?"
37672Who was she, Bagshot?
37672Who''s with you, nigger? 37672 Why did you do that?"
37672Why do n''t you go out to recess, Hoover?
37672Why, what did I say, sir?
37672Why, what have I done?
37672Will you tell Mr. Halsey where I met you on the way to the fire this morning, and what we said?
37672Would you know the two if you were to see them again?
37672Would yours, do you think,--if they knew?
37672Yes,suggested Pop,"they say it''s all a-- what?"
37672You do n''t wish to go home, do you?
37672You have shown this to----?
37672''Fresh air to clear your brains?''
37672''What''s a- fire, Shorty?''
37672''Where''s your cap?''
37672A brief pause, then, with menace in the tone, the challenge,"Who goes there?"
37672Ai n''t you, Post?"
37672And when did you first miss it?"
37672Anything the matter over yawnduh?"
37672Are they the ones now doing all this cheering?
37672Are you sure he was there?"
37672But who took the money from the Doctor''s drawer?
37672But, after all, the matter over which Pop''s boys talked and wondered most was: Where was Snipe Lawton and why did nothing further come from him?
37672Can it be that the farm folk have deserted it, and that only lurking scouts or spies are here?
37672Did any remain?"
37672Did n''t you know that the alarm would be given in a minute?"
37672Did you not order him to the cells, refusing to listen?"
37672Do n''t some of your boys talk of going home, and wanting to?"
37672Do n''t ye know me?"
37672Do n''t you know me?
37672Do what you can for us, boy, will you?"
37672Forty''s boys were always kind to us, were n''t they?
37672From which of these were they signalling last night?
37672Halsey?"
37672Halsey?"
37672Halsey?"
37672Halsey?"
37672Halsey?"
37672Halsey?"
37672Halsey?"
37672Has nothing been missed by his classmates here at school?"
37672Have we no wits left to- day?
37672Have you heard of Lawton?"
37672Hear them baying over there toward Centreville?
37672How are_ you_?"
37672How did he account for Seymour''s pencil?
37672How far out?"
37672How old are you?"
37672I begged them, and the officer of the guard, to let me----""What did you do with them?"
37672I could n''t worry mother any more, so what_ was_ there to do?
37672I mean what can we do for-- fun?"
37672If innocent of all the misdeeds laid at his door, why had he run away?
37672Is this another Grayson?"
37672Marmion came running with their horses, and to Shorty''s excited question,"Where''s the general?"
37672Men murmur or whisper to each other"What''s up?"
37672Now what message might they not be sending two hours later when the army began to move?
37672Remember the day of the fire in Twenty- fifth Street?--the day the peeler was n''t going to let you pass, and I pulled you through?"
37672Sa- ay, ai n''t I seen that feller smokin''cigarettes round the stable next the school?
37672Sa- ay, ai n''t he a rooster?
37672Sa- ay, lend me five dollars till Christmas on that watch- chain?"
37672Shall I dismiss my class?"
37672Shall we give him an exhibition performance in the Anabasis or-- take half holiday?"
37672So you thought you''d better stay home where there was n''t going to be any show of fighting, did you?"
37672The river''s washed away the pontoons----""Where is the despatch?
37672Then why did n''t they give him a pass through the lines?
37672There are none others?"
37672They would get me out if they knew where to find me, but I should enlist in another regiment under another name, so what would be the use?"
37672Think I was policeman with a search- warrant?"
37672To the queries as to where the nearest sentries were posted?
37672Was n''t he, Brodrick?"
37672Was that the reason Shorty never wrote again?
37672Was that why no one now seemed to care where he was or what had become of him?
37672Was there no sign of it when you crossed Twenty- fifth Street?
37672What Mr. Park wishes to know is why you spent so much time among the firemen and so little among your classmates?"
37672What became of you?
37672What boys saw you coming back?"
37672What brings you back?
37672What did he want?"
37672What did you do?"
37672What did you wish to say, Bertram?"
37672What does he say?"
37672What had he to fear?
37672What have you to say?"
37672What possible object is to be gained?
37672What say you, Bertram, Imperator?
37672What say you, Joy?
37672What shall we do, anyhow?"
37672What the First Latin and Pop and Halsey and Beach now longed to know, however, was, where was Snipe, and why had Mrs. Park failed in her mission?
37672What was the color of Mnemosyne''s hair?"
37672What would n''t Shorty give to be in his place this night?
37672What you''fraid of?
37672What''s that suggestion?
37672What''s that?"
37672What''s the matter?
37672What''s the trouble between you?"
37672What?
37672Where''s Shorty all dis time?"
37672Where, then, is the''_ Monstrum horrendum, informe, ingens, cui lumen ademptum_''?"
37672Who can withstand so fierce a cannonade?
37672Who goes there?"
37672Who is he?"
37672Who put that ten- dollar piece in Shorty''s overcoat- pocket?
37672Who took his despatches away?"
37672Who''d be sendin''anything''portant by the likes av you?
37672Who''s back of you there?"
37672Why did he not come home to face his accusers?
37672Why did n''t Shorty wish to take the whole holiday with the other boys as proffered by the Doctor?
37672Why do you let him lie?"
37672Why not try that way?
37672Why should n''t I sell it and buy clothes?
37672Why, what brought you here?"
37672You ai n''t going to do nothing to him for coming to give us a still on a fire, are you?"
37672You_ are_ coming, are n''t you?
37672[ Illustration:"Where''d you get that watch?"]
37672_ What?_""Polyblasphemous!"
37672a volunteer already?
37672and over there yonder to the west toward Sudley Church?
37672do you believe me capable of such disrespect as that?"
37672says the master, whereupon half a dozen contestants from below spring to their feet, with indignation in their eyes:"Well, what did I say, sir?"
37672what he would do in certain emergencies?
37672what were his own instructions?
5856At this General Grant remarked:"Did he say so?
5856Where are you?"
5857Could not your cavalry go back by the way of Stony Creek depot and destroy or capture the store of supplies there?
5857Have any more troops arrived from Richmond, or are any more coming, or reported to be coming?
5861Why do you not obey my orders to report strength and positions of your command?
5864Where?
34827''And is he gone?'' 34827 ''Is he an Englishman-- does he look like an Englishman?''
34827''Who is this Burden?'' 34827 Are there many Yankee ships passing the Rock now?"
34827But what have Congressmen done in their individual capacity? 34827 But what''s the news from Rio?"
34827But, Captain, ca n''t we arrange the matter in some way? 34827 Can you make out the nationality of the ships in tow?"
34827Have any of them struck us?
34827How is that?
34827How so?
34827I suppose you''ll charge something for bringing these gentlemen on board?
34827It would not pay me, then, to cruise in these seas?
34827Now, in view of the above statement of facts, what has Congress done? 34827 That may do very well for the murder,"I now rejoined,"but what about the desertion?"
34827The d----l she is,said I;"how many shots has she fired at us?"
34827What does she look like?
34827What does this mean?
34827What is that?
34827What is the news?
34827What ship is that?
34827What ship is that?
34827What ship is that?
34827What,said I,"do they come on deck?"
34827Whence cometh the wind, and whither goeth it?
34827Why should I not, sir?
34827You are rather hard upon us, my friend,now rejoined the boarding- officer;"why should you take such an interest in the Confederate cause?"
34827You surprise me,rejoined the Captain;"how is that?"
34827''Have you ever seen him?''
34827Adjudication presupposes something to adjudicate; but if there was no contraband of war, on board the_ Trent_, what was there to adjudicate?
34827And if not, why not?
34827And if so, in what does the difference consist?
34827And if so, what business had his pennant, any more than his ensign, to be flying?
34827And in what does the supposed proceeding differ from the one in hand?
34827And is there any difference between escaping to the shore, and to a neutral flag?
34827And that steamship, what flag did she bear?
34827And then, as I stated to you, in my first letter, is not the honor of the French flag involved?
34827And then, where was the Congress, and the Massachusetts legislature, and Mr. Secretary Welles, and all the"plate,"and all the"resolutions"?
34827And what did Mr. Secretary Welles do?
34827And what is the consequence?
34827And what think you, reader, was the excuse?
34827And when the Constitution was formed, to whom was it submitted for ratification?
34827And why this transference from American ships to British ships?
34827And why would she not have complained?
34827And yet, how could I very well run away, in the face of the promises I had given my crew?
34827And, then, what about the necessity for_ protecting the machinery at all_?
34827As a mere general, he would have abandoned the hopeless task long ago, extricating his army, and throwing it into the field, but_ cui bono_?
34827Be frank; was, or was not, the transfer of your ship a_ bona fide_ transaction?"
34827Besides, who shall judge them?
34827But does not that officer forget that treason is made up of acts of war; and is it not apparent that you can not try me for an act of war?
34827But has a captor the right to destroy before adjudication?
34827But how does he affect the currents?
34827But how is it now?
34827But if the prizes can not be sent either into the ports of the Confederate States, or into neutral ports, how can this verification be made?
34827But in what direction is the atmosphere now moving?
34827But supposing the States to have been equally represented in those schools, what would have been the result?
34827But the cloud-- how came it there, why does it remain so faithfully at its post, and what are its functions?
34827But what becomes of this lighter globule of water, which has arisen to the surface, because it has been deprived of its solid matter?
34827But what was I to do with it?
34827But what was I to do with the prize?
34827But, does it follow that I may be tried for treason?
34827But,"what smoke is that we perceive, coming down the river?"
34827By the way, has the reader ever remarked that land is scarcely ever antipodal with land?
34827By what process was any portion of this allegiance transferred to the Federal Government, and to what extent was it transferred?
34827Can this be the ultimate design of the Yankee?
34827Come when it will-- we snatch the life of life; When lost-- what recks it-- by disease or strife?
34827Could they have parted with it, without consenting to a merger of their sovereignty?
34827Could this be the_ Alabama_?
34827Did Dupont send her back to Ingraham?
34827Did he not surrender his ship to me?
34827Did it result from their forms of government, and must democrats necessarily be vulgarians?
34827Did not each State, on the contrary, call its own convention?
34827Did the North follow this example set her by the South?
34827Did the captain mean to drown them?
34827Did these States send three fourths of the students to those schools?
34827Did they part, with the right of secession?
34827Did this time correspond with the known rate of travel of the circles?
34827Did we need other incitement on board the_ Alabama_, to apply a well- lighted torch to the enemy''s ships?
34827Disturbed for what?
34827Does any one wonder that the_ Alabama_ burned New England ships?
34827Does he see rebellion and treason lurking in the conduct of these States?
34827Does the fact of my prize being in British waters, in violation of the Queen''s proclamation, give it this right?
34827Had Mr. Seward forgotten, when he wrote the above, the case of Dr. Franklin''s ship, the_ Surprise_?
34827Had he forgotten the"Naval Bureau"which was conducted in France, by Dr. Franklin and Silas Deane, who were"stationed agents"of the Colonies?
34827Had, then, the Southern States the peaceful right to dissolve the compact of government under which they had lived with the North?
34827Has Congress agitated the subject at any time, in any manner, looking to a trial of the cases referred to?
34827Has Congress passed any law directing how the rebels shall be tried?
34827Has Congress passed any resolution requesting the President to order a military court for the trial of Davis& Co.?
34827He guarded them as he would the apple of his eye, for had he not a prize which might make him Consul for life at Tangier?
34827Here is the article:--"WHY DON''T CONGRESS ACT?
34827His name?
34827How are we to account for this?
34827How could we respect it, in such a connection?
34827How did it cease to exist?
34827How did the Convention vote on this proposition?
34827How is it possible to reconcile this short, explicit, and unambiguous provision with the theory I am combating?
34827How we should be astonished?
34827I asked if I was to be put in irons?
34827I came within easy speaking range-- about seventy- five yards-- and upon asking,"What steamer is that?"
34827I said to him,"Captain, your boats appear to me, to be rather deeply laden; are you not afraid to trust them?"
34827If A strikes B, is it lawful to interfere to preserve the peace, and if B strikes A, is it unlawful to interfere for the same purpose?
34827If a ship might be violated, why not territory?
34827If the_ Sumter_ were only in Bahia, where the_ Florida_ afterward was, how easily and securely the kicking might be done?
34827If these were straight winds, blowing contrary to the trades, why should they not blow steadily like the trades?
34827If they can not send them into neutral ports, where are they to send them?
34827If we are beaten in this war, what will be our fate in the Southern States?
34827If we could not defend ourselves before Richmond, could we defend ourselves anywhere?
34827In the meantime, the inquiry naturally presents itself, Where is the Yankee?
34827In what proportion did the States contribute it?
34827Is he too busy with his internal dissensions and politics?
34827Is it a bargain?"
34827Is it because the two particles, as they have gyrated around their respective poles, have received a repulsive polarity?
34827Is it not a fact, on the contrary, that the vote of eleven States did_ not_ bind the other two?
34827Is our Government a mere rope of sand, that may be destroyed at the will of the States?"
34827Is the miserable faction which has ruled the country for the last seven years determined to destroy all its prosperity, foreign as well as domestic?
34827Is this consistent with the supposed wisdom of the political Fathers, those practical, common sense men, who formed the Federal Constitution?
34827May it not be the same law which rides on the whirlwind, and directs the storm?
34827May not this arrangement have something to do with the currents, and the water- carriers, the winds?
34827Might it not be, that, after all our trials and sacrifices, the cause for which we were struggling would be lost?
34827My first lieutenant now approached me, and touching my elbow, said,"Captain, had we not better throw this howitzer overboard?
34827No wonder that Mr. Lincoln when asked,"why not let the South go?"
34827Now what is the result?
34827Oh, who can tell?
34827On what ground can you undertake to make this decision?
34827Or was it that the whole North had been wearing a mask, and that the mask was now no longer available, or desirable, to hide their treachery?
34827Our question, then, will be reduced to this, Was she commissioned by a sovereign power?
34827Sentinel:--"Who comes there?"
34827Shall that name be tarnished by defeat?
34827Shall we, too, become mongrelized, and disappear from the face of the earth?
34827Should, now, a French traveller, landing in Morocco,_ in itinere_, only, from a French ship, be subject to a different rule?
34827Such an export would indicate unparalleled wealth, but what is the fact?
34827The Government may not supply me with powder-- why?
34827The act still remaining to be atoned for, what was there to be gained, by sending the vessel in?
34827The next question which presents itself for our consideration is, Was the_ Alabama_ properly commissioned by a sovereign power?
34827The prisoners-- what did we do with them?
34827The question now is, who formed the Constitution, not what was formed by it?
34827The question now was, in what direction should we steer?
34827The ships would be hundreds of miles away from the land, and where could this dust come from?
34827The true, and the only just and fair criterion, is, was the act for which the arrest was made an act of war?
34827The"Where- away?"
34827The_ Alabama_, said he, was burning everything, right and left, even_ British_ property; would the Lion stand it?
34827This is a very questionable assertion; for why did Captain Winslow confide in that Englishman?
34827Under such circumstances, what think you, reader, was the subject of Mr. Gibson''s discourse?
34827WAS SECESSION TREASON?
34827Was I, under these circumstances, to plunge into the water with my sword in my hand and endeavor to swim to the_ Kearsarge_?
34827Was Secession Treason?
34827Was it not more natural, that I should hurl it into the depths of the ocean in defiance, and in hatred of the Yankee and his accursed flag?
34827Was the_ Kearsarge_ an exception?
34827Was there any convention of the people of the United States in the aggregate, as one nation, called for the purpose of considering it?
34827Was this one of the results which our ancestors designed, when they framed the federal compact?
34827Was this the sort of experiment in government, that our forefathers supposed they were making?
34827Was this the way he designed to punish them for mutiny, instead of hanging them at the yard- arm?
34827We captured the_ Tonawanda_, and the question immediately presented itself what should we do with her?
34827We repeat the question with which we commenced, and which is echoed by the people everywhere,''Why do n''t Congress act?''"
34827What a descent have we here, from the Plantagenets to Mr. Milner Gibson?
34827What can be the uses in the animal economy to which this immense quantity of oil in the head of the fish is applied?
34827What could have become of Banks, and his great expedition, and what was this squadron of steam ships- of- war doing here?
34827What could the fellow mean?
34827What could the_ Sumter_ effect against such odds?
34827What could this mean?
34827What is a diplomat fit for, unless he can be a little cunning, upon occasion?
34827What is the subtle influence which produces this wonderful result?
34827What is to prevent it?
34827What monstrous sophists we are, when interest prompts us?
34827What more could a monarch do?
34827What says the reader?
34827What scenes does not the very sight of this refectory present to the imagination?
34827What was best to be done in this changed condition of affairs?
34827What was expected of me under these circumstances?
34827What was to be done?
34827What wonder that I felt a lover''s resentment?
34827When they would talk to me about private property, I would ask to whom their ships belonged-- whether to a private person, or the Government?
34827When_ will_ naughty England pay that little bill?
34827Whence came the fund for the establishment of these schools?
34827Whence can such a conclusion be drawn?
34827Whence comes it?
34827Whence this difference?
34827Where was Mr. Welles''officer, that he did not come to demand it?
34827Where was that great constituency, composed of the people of the United States in the aggregate, as one nation, all this time?
34827Who could look into the horoscope of this ship-- who anticipate her career?
34827Who could tell which these nine States would be?
34827Who shall pronounce on which side the right or wrong lies?
34827Who shall say that the civilized man is a greater philosopher, than the savage of the China seas?
34827Why did he implore his interference, calling out,''For God''s sake, do what you can to save them?''
34827Why do n''t Congress act?
34827Why might she not have been taken into some other neutral port, for this purpose?
34827Why not?
34827Why was this disruption of the old government regarded as a matter of course?
34827Why, then, may not the Government supply me?
34827With a Yankee Mandarin on board, and a good supply of opium, and tracts, what a smashing business this little cruiser might have done?
34827Yes; here were my"forces,"but where, the d----l, was General Lee, and how was I to join him?
34827_ They never returned_, and I submit to the decision of the Department, whether they are not our prisoners?"
34827_ where then shall we get our revenue?_"This system of spoliation was commenced in 1816.
34827and did not some of the States accept it, and some of them refuse to accept it?
34827and if so, on what principle?

34827and, secondly, Was there sufficient reason for such dissolution?

34827what was to become of her, and her vow?
48404And how do you determine whose duty it is to take the conceit out of one of them? 48404 And is there some one boy in the school who enjoys the job, as you call it, more than all the others?"
48404And which licked?
48404But ca n''t you_ keep_ away?
48404But, George, how came you to know so much about ships and boats and naval history?
48404Ca n''t you always help it?
48404Did you see it?
48404Did you think they were sunk in the sea?
48404Do n''t fight when you can help it?
48404Do you call ours a savage country?
48404Do you really have any such boys among your schoolfellows, or is this only theoretical?
48404Do you see that dark one over at the right, with one near it that is very red and very ragged?
48404Do you see that small cloud, at some distance from the others-- the one that is rather long and narrow, with a narrower one alongside?
48404Do you think that was right?
48404Fighting?
48404How was that?
48404In Montpelier?
48404Is it?
48404Know him?
48404Not if he_ is_ a bully?
48404Of course I meant,Bill explained,"who owns them?"
48404Of course there is great risk,said the boatswain''s mate,"but how are you going to avoid it?
48404See them-- where?
48404Suppose you left it in him and paid no attention to it-- what would happen in that case?
48404That''s a splendid idea; whose is it?
48404Then why do we lick the teacher at all?
48404Was he really the first one to sail round the world?
48404What are you thinking about, George?
48404What else can you see?
48404What has become of those islands?
48404What has happened to you?
48404What kind of ships?
48404What shall we do?
48404What was the name of Magellan''s ship?
48404What would the boys over in the Myers district say if we did n''t give him a tug?
48404What''s Bill Ammon going to do with that white paint?
48404What''s that for? 48404 What''s that?"
48404Where did he go down?
48404Where was that?
48404Where''s that, Tom?
48404Who is Charles Lamb?
48404Whose idea is this of painting the decks?
48404Why did those boys submit to such treatment?
48404Why not?
48404Why not?
48404Why the Pacific?
48404Why?
48404''What protection do they need?''
48404''Who are you calling a coward?''
48404Dewey?"
48404Do you draw lots, or take turns?"
48404Do you want me to do that?"
48404He took a sharp look at George, and then said:"What does that mean?
48404How came you by that black eye?"
48404Is n''t that a great deal better, even if you do n''t get quite so much gold?"
48404Suppose the ship at the head of the line should get caught across the opening, where would the whole fleet be then?"
48404The larger boys rushed down the bank with eager inquiries:"Where?"
48404To make us a better target for the reb gunners?"
48404What do you say-- will you do it, George?"
48404What do you say?"
48404What is that dark one, with rounded ends and no mast, just beyond the clipper?"
48404When the applause that greeted the song had subsided, little Steve Leonard asked:"I suppose that means they''ll sail all their lives, does n''t it?"
48404When the signal was given to go ahead Captain Smith asked, a little anxiously,"Do you know the channel, sir?"
48404balls could not be propelled by heart throbs, else the result would have been different?
48404is that you, Bill Ammon?"
48404paint it white?"
5863Halleck was present and spoke up, saying:"How would Sheridan do?"
47135And who are these citizens? 47135 Are we honoring Jesse Seligman because he was a successful, self- made man?
47135But how could absolutism be consistent with equality? 47135 But what if it were true that the Jews are unsocial?
47135Or do we admire Jesse Seligman above others because he was a patriotic man? 47135 Shall we not rather consider it as a matter of shame and remorse to ourselves?
47135What nation ever contended more manfully against overwhelming odds for its independence and religion? 47135 While the bloody code of Elizabeth was enforced against the English Roman Catholics, what was the patriotism of Roman Catholics?

47135And for whom is this done?
47135And is there no feeling for a father?
47135And this new age, the age that we have so ardently invoked, what will it bring us and how will it fulfil its boasted promises?
47135Are there many dissensions amongst them?
47135Because he was a rich man?
47135But do we consider him worthy of envy now, since he is dead?
47135But in how many feeble minds was not an uncertainty left?
47135But should it be nothing to such persons that when, as they believe, the Creator would incarnate himself, He became a Jew?
47135But were they always a mere money- changing, money- getting, money- hoarding race?
47135Could they overlook the feeble and the poor?
47135Do you?"
47135Does any one call this an evil pride?
47135Does he not bring energy and labor?
47135Driven from all other branches of trade, with a price on his head, and his home at the mercy of others, how could the Jew protect himself?
47135Has not similar antipathy often been felt by persecuted Christians to the society which persecuted them?
47135Has the agitation been justified by time?
47135Has the grafting of these scions on the rooted stem degenerated the stock?
47135Here is a petition to the Secretary of War; you know him well; will you present it or will you go with me to introduce me?
47135How about the Scandinavians and the Holland Dutch, the French and Italians?
47135How many will take the trouble to read over the Sacred Books, when the reading of the daily papers absorbs all their time?
47135I admit that he knows how to deal in money, but, who gave him points in the game of usury?
47135If England were now invaded by Roman Catholics, how many English Roman Catholics would go over to the invader?
47135If France were now attacked by a Protestant enemy, how many French Protestants would lend him help?
47135If the Jews, under centuries of restriction, ostracised from social life, did cling to money and its uses, whose fault was it?

47135Is his thrift and industry likely to impoverish our community?
47135Is that Jewish or Christian?
47135Shall we exclude the Russian Jew, who is driven from his native soil by the stupid villany of the same Tartar barbarism?
47135Shall we exclude the poor Roman Catholic Pole, who is driven from his home by the vindictive policy of his barbarous conquerer?
47135Since then and up to this time is it not the same sentiment?
47135The cause of this desertion[ from the Portuguese troops?]
47135Their habits and institutions, inspired by the parental sentiment-- were they not full of kindliness and foresight?
47135To exalt a daughter who absconds and robs him whom she should honor?
47135To this faith Israel clings with devoted love, and from this faith shall Shylock turn to become a Christian?
47135Two Portuguese[ Jews?]
47135Well, who has instigated it?
47135What else existed, before the laws of Moses, than that paganism which legalized all vices?
47135What has the anti- Semite to answer?
47135What if it were true that they do not regard England as their country?
47135What is against this man?
47135What is left to the poor Jew, whom you have trodden under foot, when you rob him of his faith?
47135What more deadly enemies had France in the day of Louis XIV, than the persecuted Huguenots?
47135What nation ever, in its last agonies, gave such signal proofs of what may be accomplished by a brave despair?
47135What then?
47135What will be the verdict of history as to the effects upon Judaism of the harsh policy of Alexander III?
47135Where shall this line be drawn?
47135Where then shall we draw the line?
47135Where then shall we draw the line?
47135Who was it that so signally changed the current of the world''s affairs?
47135Whose influence yet remains as mysterious as it was far- reaching?
47135Why do we honor his memory, and wish that, when we shall be gone, we should, in many respects, be remembered as he is?
47135Why does he deal in money?
47135Why is this?
47135Would not the treatment which they have undergone explain and excuse their antipathy to the society in which they live?

31589A_ blue_ ghost?
31589And if I do n''t?
31589And loading with methyl chloride to squirt at us?
31589Anyone care to listen?
31589Anything else?
31589Are n''t those more bags?
31589Are n''t we going to town?
31589Are n''t you?
31589Are these ghostly walks at nine o''clock?
31589Are you in Civil Defense by any chance?
31589Because it might be crooked?
31589Before you go, what''s your idea about the changing number of ghosts? 31589 But can we settle for mere speculation?"
31589But could n''t the carnotite have been stolen from a privately owned mine?
31589But does n''t that put us back where we started? 31589 But how can we prove all this?"
31589But how could anyone steal stuff from AEC?
31589But how does the chemical squirter work? 31589 But what else have we but assumptions?
31589But where?
31589But why did he tamper with your plane, or try to?
31589But why would he want to reach the mine area?
31589By the way, Mr. Belsely, was anything ever said about a second tunnel in the mine?
31589Ca n''t you two believe the evidence of your own eyes? 31589 Can I listen too?"
31589Can you see anyone under it?
31589Can you work in the darkness?
31589Could he be the mysterious buyer Collins is acting for?
31589Could the old mine have any value?
31589Did it ever occur to you that it''s impossible for anyone to produce the ghost? 31589 Did n''t it?"
31589Did n''t we ever ask about another entrance?
31589Did n''t you wonder a little at how fast rescue got to you?
31589Did you see any sign of water in there? 31589 Did you see them get in the car and drive away?"
31589Did you see where they came from, or went to?
31589Do ghosts have teeth?
31589Do n''t they haunt the place, too?
31589Do n''t you know Barby''s been gone on ghosts ever since she started watching that TV program on Sunday nights?

31589Including the upland cornfield above the mine?
31589Interesting formation, is n''t it?
31589Is it? 31589 Is n''t that a Geiger tube?"
31589It was a pretty good effect, was n''t it? 31589 It''s addressed to both Rick and me,"he began,"and it''s from both Barby and Jan. Shall I read?"
31589Jethro Collins?
31589Know where Falls Church airport is?
31589Like what?
31589No chases ending in quarries?
31589No, have you?
31589Not a very cheerful prospect, is it?
31589Notice everything is on one level? 31589 Notice there is n''t any water at all, not even seepage?
31589Now tell me this: why did he take the cement bags?
31589Now what do we do?
31589Now what?
31589Now where are we?
31589Now, why try to lead us on like that? 31589 Only where is this projector located?"
31589Only where was it used? 31589 Or a ghost?"
31589Rear- screen projection?
31589Reset it?
31589Sabotage?
31589Salting?
31589See a way up, Rick?
31589See any rough spots?
31589Sir, how can you be so sure we''ll see the apparition tonight?
31589So what do we conclude from this one event? 31589 So?
31589Something sort of sweet?
31589Starting where? 31589 Steve?
31589Suppose they used up all the rocks throwing them at the Yankee soldiers?
31589Suppose we have a late morning bit of refreshment and use our heads instead of our legs?
31589Tailings?
31589That infected hangnail still bothering you?
31589The FBI?
31589The appearances have been regular since then?
31589Then the Blue Ghost did n''t hurt the water of the pool?
31589There''s no other underground location in which a projector could be stored, is there? 31589 Think the dust has settled?"
31589This field is''hot,''did you know that? 31589 We certainly did n''t make much of a dent, did we?"
31589Were you expecting more?
31589What are we waiting for? 31589 What can I do for you, kids?"
31589What can I say?
31589What did the ghost want with the plane?
31589What do you expect to see?
31589What do you make of that?
31589What do you make of that?
31589What do you suppose Belsely was doing there?
31589What is it?
31589What is the stuff?
31589What makes dogs bark at night?
31589What was funny?
31589What was that all about?
31589What''s methyl chloride?
31589What''s on your mind?
31589What''s the news in Virginia?
31589Whatever made you rush right into the ghost like that?
31589When do we see this ghost?
31589When do we try, tonight?
31589Where does any ghost come from?
31589Where does carnotite come from, usually?
31589Where does this road go?
31589Where is it?
31589Where would it be located?
31589Where?
31589Who needs matches? 31589 Who wanted the land?"
31589Who''s it from?
31589Whose side are you on? 31589 Why are you so interested in this new ice- cream man?"
31589Why do n''t you two wait in the drugstore? 31589 Why not?
31589Why plant grass?
31589Why suppose? 31589 Why the shoestrings?"
31589Why two tunnels?
31589Will you be okay?
31589Wonder if the rain will last long enough to cancel out the Sons of the Old Dominion, or whether we''ll just have some thundershowers?
31589Wonder who is farming it?
31589You do n''t discourage easily, do you? 31589 You know something about him?"
31589You mean you saw ghosts pulling a ghost wagon?
31589You saw no projection beam, I assume?
31589You thinking about chemicals?
31589You were actually in the mist when this cold effect hit you?
31589You''re sold on the man- made idea, huh?
31589You''ve seen the others?
31589After a moment he said,"Clara?...
31589After all, what''s a collection of microscopic animals compared to a genuine, one hundred per cent dyed- in- the- ectoplasm spook?"
31589And why two caches?"
31589Any comments?"
31589Any other facts, even unconnected ones?"
31589Anyone want to look with me?"
31589Anyone would be curious about someone carrying a moldy bag, but why try to conceal that curiosity?
31589Anyway, we invited the boys down to try to solve a mystery, did n''t we?
31589Are you for it?"
31589Bags of radioactive ore dust?
31589Barby asked,"Could it be an explosive?"
31589Barby''s voice said sternly,"Is that you, Rick Brant?"
31589Bennett asked,"Was Dr. Miller actually approached with an offer to buy?"
31589Besides, where would he have parked his scooter?
31589But how can we say that it''s a fact that the Frostola man somehow doused us with chemical?"
31589But if it is n''t, where does that leave us?"
31589But if so, why?"
31589But over what?"
31589But what can we do?
31589But what had the cart been doing?
31589But what had the figures actually been doing?
31589But what was he doing here?"
31589But what were they doing in the cornfield?
31589But what?
31589But who could profit by it?
31589But who ever heard of a haunt that put on nightly performances?"
31589But why did the ghost do such a thing?"
31589But why go to all the trouble?
31589But why keep people out of the area?
31589But why?
31589Ca n''t you think of any way in which your land has value?"
31589Can it be arranged?"
31589Can we get in?"
31589Can you hear me?"
31589Can you imagine what it is?"
31589Coming, Jan?"
31589Could he be a new man?"
31589Could there be some connection between the abandoned mine and the ghost?
31589Did n''t we?"
31589Did the others look solid?"
31589Did you find any?"
31589Do you remember any smell, by the way?
31589Do you think he thought we knew it?"
31589Does he look like a nature lover to you?"
31589Does he want to sell?"
31589Douse the light?"
31589Dr. Miller passed the milk pitcher to Rick, then asked,"Are you certain you heard laughter?
31589Dr. Miller replied,"How about tonight?"
31589During a lull in the traffic Rick asked,"Do you suppose we got here too late?
31589Eyes adjusted?"
31589Fertilizer for the cornfield, maybe?
31589Had anyone stayed to see?
31589Had he been wrong, he and Scotty?
31589Hand me that light, will you?"
31589Have you any idea why?"
31589Have you heard a weather report lately?"
31589Have you?"
31589He asked,"Can I ask a question?
31589He asked,"Is this a public park of some kind?"
31589He asked,"May I have the bag?"
31589He asked,"Was Captain Costin a handsome young man, by any chance?"
31589He called,"What is it?"
31589He did n''t bury them deep, because who would think anything of a bunch of cement bags, except a pair like us?
31589He voiced his thoughts aloud, then asked,"If man- made, and not a practical joke, what''s the motive?"
31589How about that, Dad?
31589How can you tell?"
31589How does it get to where people can see it?"
31589How does the FBI get in on it?"
31589How is it done?"
31589How on earth does it work?"
31589I mean, when did the ghost start making his recent appearances?"
31589I suppose you have no idea where the sample came from?"
31589I''m not arguing that ghosts do n''t really exist, but if they do, they are supposed to be sort of nonsolid, are n''t they?
31589If dry ice was used to produce the mist, how did it get into the pool?
31589If he assumed the bags had arrived full, what had happened to the contents?
31589If so, why did n''t the mine tunnel strike water?"
31589If the Frostola man is new in this area, how could he have known the terrain well enough to lead us on that wild- goose chase?"
31589If you follow me?"
31589Is Tim there?"
31589Is n''t fertilizer soluble in water?"
31589Is n''t that a little odd?"
31589It was n''t a trick of the wind?"
31589It''s almost like a show, is n''t it?"
31589Jan Miller asked,"How do you know all this, Rick?"
31589Jan Miller wailed,"What does?"
31589Miller?"
31589Miller?"
31589Miller?"
31589Now, how did you two do last night?"
31589Now, what else happened about the time the haunting began?
31589Now, what''s the story?"
31589Of course the rock is mostly gray, so that''s the color of the powdered ore.""Then the mine really contains radioactive ore?"
31589Okay, where did the ghost come from?"
31589On the contrary, Jan Miller asked excitedly,"What''s the matter with right now?"
31589On this assumption, the things we need to know are_ how_ and_ why_ is the ghost produced?"
31589Only, why roam the fields?
31589Or a pipe?"
31589Or was that true?
31589Or, if they were n''t hunting, what were they doing?
31589Over an excellent lunch of charcoal- broiled hamburgers, salad, and iced tea, Dr. Miller asked,"Who''s going to tell the tale?"
31589Rick asked,"What were the wind and the laughter the last time we were in here?"
31589Rick kept wondering about the radioactive ore."Could there be any minerals worth mining?"
31589Rick said thoughtfully,"If you were anxious to make your fortune selling Frostola, where would you go to do it?"
31589Rick said,"Suppose we ca n''t get out?"
31589Rick waited while the girls exclaimed over the microscopic creatures, and Mrs. Miller remarked to her scientist husband,"And we drink that water?"
31589Rick whispered,"Where did it go?"
31589Rick, I''ve never heard of this, but I assume the oxide on the razor blade is to act as a rectifier?"
31589Right into the hillside?
31589Scotty asked,"Is the field dry enough for take- off and landing?"
31589Scotty asked,"So this is n''t just any old ghost, it''s a legendary one?"
31589Scotty asked,"Then the ghost is having an effect?"
31589Scotty asked,"Where were you while all this was going on?"
31589Scotty, who was back in the tunnel disposing of a big rock, asked anxiously,"Are you hurt?"
31589See how easy it is to separate fact and conjecture?"
31589See?
31589So what?
31589So where did the ghost come from?"
31589That is, do the real- estate agent and the ice- cream man know each other, and in particular, are they friendly?
31589The ghost''s or mine?"
31589The problem was, where did the ghost producer operate?
31589The projector ca n''t go on operating forever when a clock reaches nine, can it?
31589The question was, did it emerge in a real opening, or only in a hole driven through for ventilation?
31589There are many kinds of ore. Pitchblende is the best, but carnotite, which is a gray rock with yellowish streaks, is also good ore. Got it now?"
31589There''s one thing about peddling Frostola here--""What''s that?"
31589They sat down at the marble- topped soda fountain and Rick asked,"Got any Frostola cream pies?"
31589Think you''ll go?"
31589Unless they had something to do with the mystery?
31589Want a lift?
31589Want to look, anyone?"
31589Was n''t the girls''picnic the first time the ghost made a public appearance?
31589Was that when the clients were brought to see the Geiger counter work?"
31589We tried to find a projector beam the other night, remember?
31589What about it?
31589What did we get for it?
31589What do you make out of that?"
31589What had happened?
31589What had the mission been?
31589What is it?"
31589What say we go look?"
31589What was the meaning of the night''s events?
31589What was the reason for the Blue Ghost?
31589What were the most important facts?
31589What were they hunting?
31589What''s blocking the opening?"
31589What''s the vote?"
31589What?
31589When did the ghost first appear?"
31589When we got hit in our faces?"
31589Where is it?
31589Where is this mine and what kind is it?"
31589Where would we have ended if we had taken the left- hand turn, do you suppose?"
31589Where''s the crowd?"
31589Which way do we go?
31589Who''s the man?
31589Why did the pool bubble?"
31589Why do this?
31589Why not turn on the radio?"
31589Why spread carnotite and then come back to measure it?"
31589Why was it so interesting to the spooks?"
31589Why?
31589Why?"
31589Would he perform for an audience of two?"
31589Yesterday-- or was it the day before?
31589Yet, if it is n''t supernatural, how is it done and who does it?"
31589You checked the plane, did n''t you?"
31589You felt nothing solid, I assume?"
31589You say you''ve seen as many as three men plus the Blue Ghost?"
31589[ Illustration:_"See a way up, Rick?"
5862Can Grant supply himself from the Mississippi?
5862Often"Johnny"would call:"Well, Yank, when are you coming into town?"
5862The next was,"What are WE to do?"
5852Well, ai n''t you on our side?
5852But it first became necessary to settle the important question of who should succeed General McPherson?
5852But what next?
5852Can you expedite the sending to Nashville of the recruits that are in Indiana and Ohio?
5852If Hood goes to the Alabama line, will it not be impossible for him to subsist his army?
5852Others say:"What are we to do?
5852Pausing awhile, and watching the operations of this man roasting his corn, he said,"What are you doing?"
5852Some say:"I have such a one sick at my house; who will wait on them when I am gone?"
5852This being so, how is it possible for the people still here( mostly women and children) to find any shelter?
5852Who ever supposed they would come away down here in Alabama?"
5852said a listener,"do n''t you know that old Sherman carries a duplicate tunnel along?"
42315Do you dispute the authority of the United States Government?
42315I then said to General Johnston:''How long can you hold Sherman north of the Chattahoochee River? 42315 Why should ships be an exception?
42315''Did you not tell my daughter there was no God?
42315''Do you believe in a God, miss?''
42315''Do you hear that sound-- click, click?''
42315''What are they going to do with me?''
42315''Why, what makes you think that?''
42315239; only the people of the State,299; how could the Government of the United States appear in a State and attempt to institute a State government?
42315451; to the State government, 451; the powers of the State government are just powers, 451; is the citizen''s life in danger?
42315457; the Government of the United States, 457; where was the government of the State of Tennessee and the sovereign people?
42315624; who is responsible for the war?
42315762; when the cause was lost, what cause was it?
42315Above all, should he be compelled to fall back for want of supplies, beat him?
42315Also, what has become of the unalienable right of property, which all the State governments were created to protect and preserve?
42315And suppose they could be induced by a proclamation of freedom from me to throw themselves upon us, what should we do with them?
42315April 11th he asks,"When will you launch, and when will she be ready for action?"
42315Are the freedom and personal liberty of the citizen in danger from unlawful arrest and imprisonment?
42315Can not you hire night- gangs for triple wages?"
42315Can you aid him?"
42315Can you not cut him off from it?
42315Could human ingenuity devise a method for a more perfect subversion of a constitutional duty?
42315Did he do it?
42315Does any one doubt that Major Pitcairn meant subjugation, or that Great Britain meant subjugation?
42315Does not this demonstrate an intent to subjugate our States?
42315Finally, the question was put to General Johnston categorically to this effect:''Will you surrender Atlanta without a fight?''
42315Floyd said,"General Buckner, if I place you in command, will you allow me to draw out my brigade?"
42315For what honest purpose were these declarations made?
42315Had Congress and the President made new laws of war?
42315Have the eternal principles of the Declaration of Independence been hid from our sight for ever?
42315How can we feed and care for such a multitude?
42315How could an invader attempt to"institute"a republican State government?
42315How would you like to have both your arms cut off?''
42315If a man may build a vessel for the purpose of offering it for sale to either belligerent party, may he not execute an order for it?
42315If it be asked,"Why did not General Johnston wait until the enemy marched from the river instead of attacking him at Shiloh or Pittsburg Landing?"
42315If it had the power now to do what it before had not, whence was it derived?
42315If the former, then what are constitutions worth for the protection of rights?
42315Is anything to be done?"
42315Is it henceforth to be a dictum of humanity that man may no more take up arms in defense of rights, liberty, and property?
42315Is it not evident that, only by a fiction of speech, such proceedings can be called an insurrection?
42315Is it strange that the men grew weak and attenuated?
42315Is not this an attempt, while pretending to establish, to destroy true republicanism?
42315Is such treatment of the Constitution the manner to preserve, protect, and defend it?
42315Is the citizen''s life in danger from violence?
42315Is the personal property of the citizen in danger of robbery or abduction?
42315Is the property of the citizen in danger of a violent and unjust seizure and unlawful detention or destruction?
42315Is there a single court, or magistrate, or individual that would be influenced by it there?
42315Let posterity answer the questions: Who were the revolutionists?
42315May not the House of Representatives impeach the President for such refusal?"
42315Now, then, tell me, if you please, what possible result of good would follow the issuing of such a proclamation as you desire?
42315Now, where were the"just powers"of the State government at this time?
42315Of what avail to ask for the privilege of bail when in military custody, which knows no such thing as bail?
42315Pemberton replied by asking:"Have you force enough to hold your position?
42315President Lincoln replied:"What good would a proclamation of emancipation from me do, especially as we are now situated?
42315STEVENS, THADDEUS, his remark,"Who pleads the Constitution against our proposed action"of confiscation?
42315The inquiry naturally arises, Was it because of this difference that Pope had been assigned to the command of the Army of Virginia?
42315Under these circumstances, who was the sovereign in Tennessee?
42315Under what principles, then, could the Government of the United States appear in Louisiana and attempt to institute a State government?
42315Was it against them as individuals in an unorganized condition, or as organized political communities?
42315Was it thus obeyed by Mr. Lincoln as the supreme law of the land?
42315Was the inherent sovereignty of the people destroyed by shot and shell?
42315Was this a government resting on the consent of the governed?
42315Was this an attempt to enforce a fiction or to establish the truth?
42315Were Federal prisoners left to suffer, and afterward photographed"to aid in firing the popular heart of the North"?
42315Were these the appropriate means by which to execute the laws, and in suppressing rioters to secure tranquillity and preserve a voluntary union?
42315What can you do?
42315What cause was it?
42315What need was thereof this second stipulation?
42315What were these supposed safeguards?
42315What, then, is the Government of the United States?
42315What, then, is this necessity?
42315When the cause was lost, what cause was it?
42315When the war closed, who were the victors?
42315Whence came the change?
42315Where must the American citizen look for the security of the rights with which he has been endowed by his Creator?
42315Where was the government of the State of Tennessee and the sovereign people?
42315Where was the sovereignty of the people under these proceedings?
42315Which is sovereign, Mr. Lincoln and his proclamation or the Constitution?
42315Which is the higher authority, Mr. Lincoln and his emancipation proclamation or the Constitution?
42315Who is the criminal?
42315Who is to decide what persons are"loyal"?
42315Who pleads the Constitution against our proposed action?"
42315Who shall decide?
42315Who was to be the umpire in such a case?
42315Who were really destroying the Constitution of the United States?
42315Who, then, had a right to"institute"a republican government for Louisiana?
42315Why call on him now?''
42315Why should ships alone be in themselves contraband?
42315Why were they not hung?
42315Will it always be thus?
42315Will it stand?
42315Will the safety of your army allow more time?
42315Would my word free the slaves, when I can not even enforce the Constitution in the rebel States?
42315_ Citizen''s life_, is it in danger?

4361Are you a member of the other House?
4361Are you the Governor of a State?
4361Certainly not"Have you ever had a vote of thanks by name?
4361Do you think you could become so interested in my conversation as not to notice the door- keeper?
4361Have you any meat?
4361Is anybody in the house?
4361Is it a good road, and how far?
4361Is it locked up?
4361Is no one about who can get in?
4361Now, where is the proper place to break it?
4361Well, ai n''t you on our side?
4361Well,said he,"what do you want of me?"
4361Well,said he,"why do n''t you go into the gallery?"
4361What do you know of Uncle Billy?
4361What do you live on?
4361What is to be done with the freedmen?
4361What is your badge?
4361Why?
43611, but are in the immediate neighborhood, on their plantations?
4361A few days afterward the husband again appealed to his commanding officer( Taylor), who exclaimed:"Have n''t you got a musket?
4361After shaking hands all round, the Governor said,"Coleman, what the devil is the matter here?"
4361At every meal the steward would come to me, and say,"Captain Sherman, will you bring your ladies to the table?"
4361But it first became necessary to settle the important question of who should succeed General McPherson?
4361But what next?
4361Ca n''t you defend your own family?"
4361Can it be that such a resort finds root in any stratum of American opinion?
4361Can we whip the South?
4361Can you expedite the sending to Nashville of the recruits that are in Indiana and Ohio?
4361Could not such a camp be established about Pocotaligo or Coosawhatchie?
4361Could not such escaped slaves find at least a partial supply of food in the rice- fields about Savannah, and cotton plantations on the coast?
4361Davis, etc.?
4361General Blair simply asked,"Do you like it?"
4361General Grant remarked,"What is to prevent their laying the rails again?"
4361General Halleck had a map on his table, with a large pencil in his hand, and asked,"where is the rebel line?"
4361Governor of a State?
4361Halleck''s telegram of last night says:"Who sent Smith''s division to Nashville?
4361Has any thing been heard from the troops ordered from Vicksburg?
4361He asked me,"Where?"
4361He dropped out of the retinue with an orderly, and after we had ridden a mile or so he overtook us, and I asked him,"What luck?"
4361He inquired,"Why not both?"
4361He said:"What is the use of your persevering?
4361He then asked in his quizzical way,"Are you a foreign embassador?"
4361He then said,"Have you any impudence?"
4361He turned to me and said,"Ca n''t you take your regiment up there?"
4361I answered, rather shortly,''How the devil do you know there is a masked battery?
4361I answered:"How can you go to New York?
4361I asked Deshler:"What does this mean?
4361I had on my undress uniform indicating my rank, and inquired of the sentinel,"Is General Fremont up?"
4361I said I had come to see him on business; and he added,"You do n''t suppose that he will see such as you?"
4361I touched it and examined one or two of the larger pieces, and asked,"Is it gold?"
4361If Hood goes to the Alabama line, will it not be impossible for him to subsist his army?
4361If the rebel leaders were to arm the slaves, what would be its effect?
4361If you ca n''t get over, how can the rebels get at you?''
4361In that event, would it not be possible for you to become a citizen of our State?
4361Major Childs inquired,"Where is Coacoochee?"
4361Major W. T. Sherman: Will you accept the chief clerkship of the War Department?
4361Mason said to me,"What is that?"
4361Member of Congress?"
4361Mr. Lincoln, who was still standing, said,"Threatened to shoot you?"
4361Of parties claiming foreign protection?
4361Others say:"What are we to do?
4361Pausing awhile, and watching the operations of this man roasting his corn, he said,"What are you doing?"
4361Renick said,"What do you want with General Fremont?"
4361Sherman said to me:"Admiral, how could you make such a remark to McClernand?
4361Should we allow them to escape, etc.?
4361So that among the younger officers the query was very natural,"Who the devil is Governor of California?"
4361So that the only questions that remained were, would he surrender at Raleigh?
4361Some say:"I have such a one sick at my house; who will wait on them when I am gone?"
4361State in what manner you would rather live--whether scattered among the whites, or in colonies by yourselves?
4361State what you understand by slavery, and the freedom that was to be given by the President''s proclamation?
4361State what, in your opinion, is the best way to enlist colored men as soldiers?
4361The Governor knocked at the door, and on inquiry from inside"Who''s there?"
4361Then followed the question,"Is Fort McAllister taken?"
4361This being so, how is it possible for the people still here( mostly women and children) to find any shelter?
4361We then returned to Benicia, and Wool''s first question was,"What luck?"
4361What can I do for you?"
4361What signified the terms to them, so long as we obtained the actual surrender of people who only wanted a good opportunity to give up gracefully?
4361What was to be done with the rebel armies when defeated?
4361When ground is owned by parties who have gone south, and have leased the ground to parties now in the city who own the improvements on the ground?
4361When houses are occupied and the owner has gone south, leaving an agent to collect rent for his benefit?
4361When houses are owned by loyal citizens, but are unoccupied?
4361When movable property is found in stores that are closed?
4361When parties owning houses have gone south, and the tenant has given his notes for the rent in advance?
4361When parties who occupy the house are creditors of the owner, who has gone south?
4361When the owner has gone south, and parties here hold liens on the property and are collecting the rents to satisfy their liens?
4361When the owner lives in town, and refuses to take the oath of allegiance?
4361When the tenant has expended several months''rent in repairs on the house?
4361Who ever supposed they would come away down here in Alabama?"
4361Who have prompted him?
4361Why do you not obey my orders to report strength and positions of your command?
4361Why was this, or why was all mention of any field of duty for the head of the army left out of the army regulations?
4361Wo n''t you speak your mind freely on this question of slavery, that so agitates the land?
4361said Mr. Lincoln,"how are they getting along down there?"
4361said a listener,"do n''t you know that old Sherman carries a duplicate tunnel along?"
4361where are they to come from?"
31776Ai n''t they coming back again?
31776Ai n''t they terribler than any other kind o''rebels?
31776Ai n''t this a puddin''? 31776 Ai nt them them, right out there?"
31776Air yo''uns from Injianny?
31776Am I goin''to be run over by every pin- feather snipe from West Point? 31776 And did n''t I shoot one, too?"
31776And did n''t I watch the crossing down there at the burnt bridge?
31776And do you want some accomplices?
31776And has anybody seen Pete Skidmore?
31776Are you an officer?
31776Are you goin''to put words into my mouth, Misther Klegg? 31776 But has the Judge- Advocate the right to disregard the plain plea?"
31776But s''pose he comes on you when your gun ai n''t loaded, and his sword is, or you''ve missed him, as I did that hog?
31776But what''ll they say about us in camp?
31776But what''re you goin''to do with the gang?
31776Ca n''t I ask you just one?
31776Ca n''t I shoot that dod- blasted Aid, and save Shorty, and take it all on myself?
31776Ca n''t they read? 31776 Ca n''t you make him scrooch a little?
31776Ca n''t you take a quiet walk out into the country, without stirring up the whole neighborhood?
31776Can you see any path through this abatis, Sergeant?
31776Cap looked at the boys in astonishment, and then snapped out:''Well, what do you boys want?'' 31776 Come back to take keer o''the men that yo''uns swatted last night?"
31776Corps badges-- what''s them?
31776Corps badges? 31776 Did any of you boys see either Alf or Monty?"
31776Did n''t nobody see nothin''o''little Skidmore?
31776Did n''t none o''you have sense enough to fasten down the covers carefully, so''s to keep the water out? 31776 Did n''t the Captain order us to stay here?
31776Did n''t you have some trouble about a bunch of cattle you sold to the Quartermaster- General?
31776Did you ever see a gang o''half- baked kids get to be men as quick as these boys?
31776Did you ever see him before?
31776Do n''t you think the rebels just let go to get a fresh hold?
31776Do them rijimints look like the 200th Injianny?
31776Do they come like a hurricane, and disappear again like an April shower?
31776Dod dum you, who asked you to be a daddy to me? 31776 Dod durn it, what''re you all runnin''away from me for?"
31776Does your Bible say that ere?
31776Draw your stomachs in, put your little fingers down to the seams of your pantaloons--"You mean the middle finger, do n''t you?
31776Eh-- What''s that?
31776Giving your men their first drill, are you? 31776 Goodness, what kin I do to keep from gitting lost in all that crowd?"
31776Goodness,murmured Gid Mackall, as he set down the carpet- sack which he would persist in carrying,"are they always in a hurry?
31776Got that kink out o''your backbone? 31776 Great Jehosephat, you little brats, how did you git here?"
31776Great Jehosephat,gasped Shorty,"was that Gen. Tecumseh Sherman?"
31776Great Scott, ca n''t you git along without fightin''? 31776 Had n''t we batter take our guns along?"
31776Hain''t you got no more sense than to stand on a crossin''?

31776Hello, Groundhog, is that you? 31776 Hello, Groundhog, is that you?"
31776Hello, there; where are you goin'', you chuckle- headed clodhoppers?
31776Here, what''re you givin''me that broken loaf for?
31776Here, what''s all this row about?

31776How can you be a commanding officer, when everybody else bosses you about?
31776How did I know it? 31776 How did they come to be yours, sir?"
31776How did you know that the prisoner was drunk?
31776How do you know there are any Yankees out there? 31776 How do you plead to them?"
31776How kin I ever face the Colonel and the rest o''the boys?
31776How long have you been with this army? 31776 How many of us will ever get through?"
31776How much''ll I git out o''that?
31776How was he acting then?

31776Is that all, Captain?
31776Is that the way with the rebel cavalry?
31776Is the rebels coming again?
31776Is the whole Confederacy out there on hossback?
31776Kin we sneak up on him and git him?
31776Kin you tell us where the rijimint is? 31776 No, not there,"nervously interjected Humphrey''s, turning with him;"ai n''t there something stirring down there by the crick?"
31776Now, officer, who are you?
31776Now, what new conniption''s struck them dumbed little colts?
31776O, my, do we have to fight all them?
31776Orderly- Sergeant?
31776Picked them up, did n''t you?
31776Please, Sarjint,begged Gid Mackall, as they halted for an instant near a large rock,"need we go quite so fast?
31776Put a spell on you? 31776 Rebels out there?"
31776Sarjint,gasped flarry Joslyn, after they had gone a couple of miles,"do n''t you call this purty fast marchin''?"
31776Say, Corpril, the Orderly said we wuz goin''to fight a whole passel of rebel cavalry, did n''t he?

31776Ten thousand?
31776Thankee for yore kind inkwiries az to mi helth? 31776 That a hog?"
31776That little snipe, Pete Skidmore--"Good gracious, he was n''t lost again, was he?
31776The fight''s over?
31776There, ai n''t that rebel cavalry galloping and yelling?
31776They would n''t leave it behind to guard one o''these mud- piles they call forts, would they?
31776Think of it?
31776Want to lose me? 31776 Was n''t it just wonderful?"
31776Was you all so blamed anxious lookin''out for yourselves that you did n''t pay no attention to that little boy? 31776 We do n''t have to go over that brush, then?"
31776Well, what is it?
31776Well, what''s that got to do with your havin''a good breakfast?
31776What are twos? 31776 What are you wasting time squabbling before the men for?
31776What do you do when one o''them wild rebels comes cavorting and tearing toward you, on a big hoss, with a long sword, and yelling like a catamount?
31776What do you mean by a right smart parcel?
31776What do you see, Monty?
31776What else do you see?
31776What in goodness will ever become of us, if we''re lost in this awful wilderness?
31776What in the world are we goin''to do for grub, Si?
31776What makes you juke, if they ca n''t hit nothing?

31776What''d you mean? 31776 What''ll you do?"
31776What''re you doin''up, Pete? 31776 What''re you goin''to do?"
31776What''re you talkin''about, you dumbed fool?
31776What''s excitin''Shorty so, to make him yell that way? 31776 What''s the matter with him?"
31776What''s the matter, Pete?
31776What''s the use o''linin''on a feller that ca n''t stand still a second?
31776What, a thousand?
31776What, you rascal, would you assault an officer?
31776Where are these rebels that we''re goin''to fight?
31776Where are you goin''in sich a devil of a hurry?
31776Where do you belong?
31776Where''s Alf Russell?
31776Where''s the camp?
31776Where''s the place? 31776 Where''s your shoulder- straps?"
31776Where''s your sword?
31776Who are you, Corporal?
31776Who are you, boys?
31776Who brung you here?
31776Who gave the order to fire?
31776Who in Jeff Davis''s dominions is that comin''up?
31776Who is that man, Corpril?
31776Who kept the rebel from gittin''back to the train and settin''it on fire, but me and Sandy Baker?
31776Who the divil''s goin''to carry this word, Oi''d like to know, Misther Klegg?
31776Who was it down in Kentucky that was afraid to shoot at a rebel cavalryman, for fear it would make him mad, and he might do something?
31776Who''ll be the Jim Humphreys and Gid Mackals this time?
31776Who''ll you make, you brindle steer?
31776Who''re you a- calling names, you bow- legged little shrimp?
31776Who''s he? 31776 Why did n''t they tell us this an hour ago, and save me all this wear and tear that''s makin''me old before my time?
31776Why did n''t you shoot him, if you''re such a deadshot?
31776Why do n''t some o''you speak? 31776 Why do n''t they go ahead?
31776Why do n''t you get into line as ordered? 31776 Why do you put one man behind another?"
31776Why should n''t we be here?
31776Why, what''d they do?
31776Why, what''s the matter with that old coat?
31776Will we have to fight them cavalry again tomorrow jest the same way?
31776Will you always be kickin''up a rumpus? 31776 Will you promise on your honor to stay with these men, and take care o''them till daylight, if we do n''t come sooner?"
31776Wo n''t he chop me with his sword?
31776Wonder if I''m ever goin''to have a chanst for a little private sociable with Billings? 31776 Wonder which one o''them is the 200th Injianny''s?"
31776Yes, Where''s Alf Russell?
31776Yes, Where''s Monty?
31776You came down with this Sergeant and Corporal, did you? 31776 You do n''t have to fight when you''re wetter''n a drowned rat, and so tired you''re ready to drop, do you?"
31776You measly whelps, hain''t you a grain o''manhood left? 31776 You say this prisoner was promoted for capturing a rebel flag at Chickamauga?"
31776You senseless little bantam,said Shorty, with his grip on Harry''s throat;"will you always be raising a ruction?
31776You''ll play fair, now, Captain, wo n''t you, and choose for yourself?
31776''Do n''t you have family devotion every evening?
31776''Evening what?''
31776''Hello, what do you want?
31776--"Must I shoot the same time you do, or wait till you shoot?"
317761 man in the front rank faces to the right and stand fast--""What do the rest of us do?"
31776135]"Where are you goin''?"
31776168]"Do ye s''pose the fight''s really over?"
31776Ai n''t Injianny good enough for you?"
31776Ai n''t you ashamed to swindle a green little kid out o''the money that he wants to send to his widowed mother?"
31776Ai n''t you dead yit?
31776Ai n''t you goin''to obey my orders?"
31776All ready?
31776Are n''t you from Milwaukee?"
31776Are you all dumb?"
31776Are you crazy?"
31776Are you going to be all night getting up two or three tents?
31776Are you through with the witness, Judge- Advocate?
31776At last a form separated itself from the bank of blackness on the left, and a voice said in a penetrating whisper:"Is this the 200th Ind?"
31776Badly hurt?"
31776Billings?
31776Billings?
31776Billings?
31776Billings?
31776But how''re we goin''to fix it not to let the other boys know that we''ve picked''em out?"
31776But we got the works all right, did n''t we?"
31776But what''s this gang you''ve got with you?"
31776But where are the boys?"
31776But you ai n''t hurt a bit, are you?"
31776Ca n''t you go out and gether up a lot o''niggers that we kin sell''em?"
31776Came West with the Eleventh Corps, did n''t you?"
31776Come on, why do n''t y''?"
31776Conjure you?
31776Did n''t anything happen to Sandy Baker?"
31776Did the prisoner actually strike you?"
31776Did you see him drink?"
31776Do n''t that count for nothin''?"
31776Do n''t they git the papers?"
31776Do n''t you see I''m writing?"
31776Do n''t you see the regiment is moving?"
31776Do n''t you see the rest stackin''arms?"
31776Do n''t you think so?"
31776Do you desire that?"
31776Genuine Yankee plug?
31776Get a move on you, now, for there''s a rain coming up, and besides I want you for something else as soon''s you''re through with this?"
31776Got anything to eat?
31776Got your canteen full, Pete?
31776Great Jehosephat, how''m I goin''to stand it till then?
31776Hain''t they got any niggers around here that they kin set at the work?"
31776Has it occurred to you that you somewhat overdid the thing?"
31776Have n''t you any pickets out there?"
31776Have n''t you no corps badges?"
31776He started to blustering at the boys who were carrying in guns:"Here, how often have I got to caution you galoots about bein''careful with them guns?
31776How do you like that, you ill- begotten imps of rebels?"
31776How does any man know that another is drunk?
31776How in the Nation are we ever goin''to do it?"
31776How many regiments have you got over there?"
31776How much bounty''d you get?"
31776How often''ve I got to tell you that?"
31776If we parole you, will you stay here, and take care o''your partner and the others, and be here in the mornin'', when we send for you?"
31776If you don''t--""If I do n''t what''ll you do, you lowlived whelp?"
31776Is he the biggest man in the army?"
31776Is that your name?"
31776McGillicuddy give me one look when he asks the question about how we come to lose all our rations so soon?
31776McGillicuddy?"
31776My, what will I do?"
31776Onderstand that?"
31776Pete do n''t need as much as a man; why give it to him?
31776Remember the first time we saw McBiddle to know him?
31776Say, have you seen a squad o''recruits around here-- all boys, with new uniforms, and no letters or numbers on their caps?"
31776Say, was n''t the way the boys jumped the works and waded into them sardines just grand?"
31776See that camp over there?
31776Shorty shouted to those on top:"Say, you fellers up there, ai n''t you gittin''tired o''that work?
31776Shorty, and tie the blamed kid to you, and not be pestering yourself and everybody else about him all the time?"
31776Squirrels or angels?
31776T. J. Billings?
31776Then came the disturbing thought of how he was to care for and protect the precious missive?
31776They asked why we did n''t get the right kind of nurses for our company, that would n''t let the members stray out of their sight?
31776They want tall men in the company, do n''t they, Corpril?
31776Think because I''m little I ca n''t help?
31776Thirdly, if I took the money I''d like as not set into a game o''poker tonight and lose it, and then where''d I be, and where''d Cap be?
31776Understand?
31776Want to git into the fight all by yourselves, and leave me out?
31776Was he not accomplishing what he was ordered to do?"
31776Was he your father?"
31776Was you in such a hurry for fear they''d get away, and have they got away?"

31776Where''s my haversack?"
31776Where''s this Sarjint Klegg and Corpril Elliott that brung you here?"
31776Who could it be from?
31776Why do n''t we start, I wonder?"
31776Why do n''t you put us out in one line, like a class in school?
31776Will I have to wring your neck to learn you to behave?"
31776Will you take the things out of his pockets to send to his folks?
31776Wisht I knowed jest how much o''the kind remembrance was Maria''s, and if it differed in any way from her mother''s and sister''s?"
31776Wo n''t you straighten Up and keep straight?"
31776Wonder if bein''in cedar makes it taste so bang- up?
31776Wonder what that means?"
31776Wonder where I kin pick up a rebel musket and trimmins''?"
31776Wonder where I put my matches?"
31776You ai n''t goin''to tell the Captain on us, and have us tied up by the thumbs, are you, Corporal?
31776You were put under the charge of those men to be taken to your regiment?"
31776You were recruited for the 200th Ind., were you?
31776You wo n''t tell, will you?"
31776You''ll let me put my thumb on your throat?"
31776gasped Alf Russell, coming out from behind the bushes,"they do n''t expect us to do any more fighting today, do they?"
31776he''s bin shot through the bowels?"
5865Well,said he,"did n''t you think it was the biggest shuck and the littlest ear that ever you did see?"
5865Well,said he,"did you see him take it off?"
5865MAJOR- GENERAL THOMAS, Nashville, Tenn. Is there not danger of Forrest moving down the Cumberland to where he can cross it?
5865Should his request be granted, who would you like as his successor?
5865Why not attack at once?

57440Have you any news from the Western armies?
57440Is there any hope or prospects of an exchange of prisoners?
57440What corps engaged?
57440What?
57440Where are they?
57440Where were you captured?
57440Where?
57440Yes, yes, certainly, lieutenant; have you lost anything?
57440You do n''t think that I can find them, do you?
57440All talk of a trip to the coast was abandoned, but the question was-- would the army come to us or must we go to it?
57440Gen. Morrow--"Did you feed and care for these escaped prisoners?"
57440Gen. Morrow--"How are you and your family going to live?"
57440Gen. Morrow--"Where are you going now?"
57440In a few moments Sambo drove up, when the following dialogue took place: Gen. Morrow--"What is your name?"
57440This raised the ire of Captain Tabb, and he said:"You refuse to obey my orders, do you?"
57440Toward the last of April I was approached by an officer of high rank, who asked if I was"anxious to be exchanged?"
57440We were besieged with such questions as:"What army are you from?"
57440Why do n''t you come out?
58833What does that mean?
58833Who is John Cooper, and where does he live?
58833He asked Emory"What is the matter?"
58833Monroe delay too long, and shall we be obliged to leave our guns as we have seen two batteries do just a few moments before?
58833What has happened?
58833Whence came this abhorrence of slavery, and this love of liberty?
58833William Mills, the number four, turned to his sergeant and asked,"Charlie, shall I let him have it?"
58315But what state?
58315How in-- did you get here?
58315In the fight?
58315Then why did you take the risk?
58315Well, General, what do you think of that?
58315Who is in command here?
58315''You falsify the morning report of a captain and his orderly?
58315But how did the boys of 1861 fulfill the promises of Governor Curtin?
58315But what could keep an army of freeman from discussing political questions?
58315Comrade, with a record like this have we not much to be proud of?
58315Governor Curtin faced the President and said:"What will Pennsylvania do?
58315Shouts are being heard all along the line:"Why are not the Reserves being supported?"
58315The outlook was squally; at daybreak, the rebels would attack; what could the 57th do against such odds?
58315They also yelled to us asking:"Yanks, have you got any whiskey over thar?"
58315They yelled at us:"Yanks, do you know that General Sheridan is killed?"
58315To me he only said,''Captain wo n''t you have a drink?''"
58315What regiment?"
58315When were they to be granted?
60700Orderly Hill, ca n''t you go to the post office for me, as I ca n''t go ashore?
60700I found I would not be able to get to Brownsville that night, and I said to myself,"What will I do for something to eat?"
60700I said,"Colonel, can I go ashore?"
60700I thought this singular, but did not reply until he was through, and then I said,"Lieutenant, when did the brigade get to Brownsville?"
60700Is this vain world a friend to grace, to help me on to God?"
60700Must I not stem the flood?
60700She exclaimed,"Is that President Lincoln?"
41528And you do n''t know where he is?
41528Can you write?
41528Did he also tell you to wear ball and chain?
41528Do n''t you know me?
41528Do you know anything about the country around, and about the City?
41528Have you seen Col. Aiken; does he know you?
41528How do you do, Captain Coleman? 41528 How will you get across?"
41528How would you manage?
41528Is that all?
41528Sergeant, ca n''t you teach me how?
41528Sergeant, where is the man?
41528Well, how did you come out?
41528Well, you do n''t believe that I would swear to a lie?
41528What can I do for you?
41528What for, Colson?
41528What have you arrested him for?
41528What have you done for a living?
41528What is your name?
41528What will it be worth?
41528Where is the axe?
41528Who are you?
41528Who gave you the orders?
41528Who lives here?
41528Why did you not cut the wood?
41528Why do n''t you call the Corporal of the Guard, and get relief?
41528You know-- who did it?
41528--"What did you do it for?"
41528--"What is your name-- what Company do you belong to, and what is your regiment?"
41528--"You had your fun, am I not entitled to have some?"
41528A soldier on his way home?
41528After awhile my corporal came for the wood;"Where is the wood?"
41528After passing greetings of the day I asked,"Where are the folks?"
41528All right Tom, how are you?
41528And you have been fighting us for over four years and now come and ask me for a favor?
41528Are there any others behind?
41528Are you not from Emanuel county, Georgia?"
41528Barnes remarked"What in the world is that?"
41528By whose orders?
41528Can I get about five gallons?
41528Can you tell me how far it is from here to the enemy''s camp?
41528Did they stop at that?
41528Do I understand that you refuse to comply?
41528Do you know him?
41528Do you know where they carried him to?
41528Do you mean it as a challenge?
41528Do you think you can buy up provisions for the hospital?
41528Harvey?
41528Have you some money?
41528He answered, Did you not get three days rations?
41528He answered,"Well, what will you do?"
41528He exclaimed,"My God, why did you not kill him?"
41528He replied, What country are you from?
41528He said Yes, what will you have?
41528He said, Can you write?
41528He said, Do you know the penalty, sir?
41528He said, Have you a horse?
41528He said, How much can you pull at a load?
41528He said, What are you going to do?
41528He said, What is your name?
41528He said, Yes; what will you have?
41528He said,"Ike, what luck?"
41528He turned, saying, you speak to me?
41528Hines, being very intimate with him, I said, Bill, you want to have some fun?
41528How did he get here?
41528How do you like New York?
41528How far behind are we?
41528How far do you live from here?
41528How far?
41528How is it now?
41528How long had you been in this country before the war broke out?
41528How long have you been in the army?
41528How long since you have heard from home?"
41528How many of the First Georgia are here?
41528How so Bill?
41528How was that?
41528How would you like to wagon for me at$ 15.00 a month and rations?
41528I answered, Are you the commander of these troops?
41528I at once went to headquarters and met Lieutenant Howell and said,"Do you intend to make me finish the penalty you imposed on me?"
41528I certainly do; is it for this which I am arrested?
41528I finally applied at a shop where a dutchman was foreman, I was willing to work at any price for I had to live but do you know what they did?
41528I gave the military salute and started towards the door, when he called me saying,"Do you ever drink anything?"
41528I humbly remarked,"Will that do?"
41528I knew it was against the orders to have a fire at the outpost on vidette duty so I said,"Who told you to have a fire?
41528I knocked again when a lady''s feeble voice answered, Who is there?
41528I related what had passed between Lieutenant and I. William Harmon, then said,"Did you tell him that I helped you stick it up?"
41528I remarked, Are you the agent?
41528I remarked,"General, had I not better let them advance somewhat, so as not to waste too much ammunition?"
41528I said to him, What are they worth?
41528I said to him, What troops are those on the right hand side up the hill?
41528I said, Do you know the man; would you recognize him again if you were to meet him?
41528I said, Have you discharged the fellow who did it?
41528I said, How much will you give me for it?
41528I said, Is this the best you can do for me?
41528I said, Mr. Stroter have you any whiskey on hand?
41528I said, Perry, what are you doing?
41528I said, This is Governor Brown?
41528I said, What has happened?
41528I said, What is the matter with you, are you scared?
41528I said, Yes, would you like to have a drink?
41528I said, poor fellow, are you wounded badly?
41528I said, well, our arrangement suits me; what is the hotel keeper''s name?
41528I said,"Corporal, what is to be done?"
41528I said,"Haywood, do you know what he writes in that letter?"
41528I said,"Is it?"
41528I said,"Walker, would you leave your post to be court- martialed, and reported as a coward?
41528I saw Mr. Bothwell; after the usual greeting I said, What is cotton selling at?
41528I showed him the tree;"Is that all you have done?"
41528I still remained standing in the road, watching any move they might make, when one of them spoke, saying, Will you let me come to you?
41528I walked up to them, asking, What troops do you belong to?
41528In a brisk manner, said,"What is that you have taken?"
41528Is it a wonder that the men of the South became desperate and used desperate remedies to oust more desperate diseases?
41528Is this the hotel?
41528Major Roland addressed himself to me"What can I do for you?"
41528Mr. Lyons then spoke up,"Well, what are you going to do about it?"
41528My dear reader, do n''t you believe we were glad when day broke on us?
41528My first impulse was, can I make it across, or must I surrender?
41528Noting a keystone that I wore on my watch chain he said, I see you are a Mason?
41528On our way to the basement he asked me, What State?
41528On the first of May, 1862, Sergeant E. P. Howell came to me saying:"Herman, how would you like to help me make up an artillery Company?
41528On your way home?
41528Others took up the word all along the line of"How are you Bill Grimes?"
41528Presently one of the Federals hollered over,"Say, Johnnie, do n''t you want some coffee?"
41528Put out that fire, sirs, do n''t you know it is strictly prohibited?"
41528Recognizing me, he said,"Hermann, you here?"
41528Salter said, Hermann, what will you take for this horse?
41528She said to me,"Poor fellow, are you wounded?"
41528So he peremptorily said, What will you have?
41528The Colonel smiled and said,"What did you do with the axe?
41528The lady of the hotel came to me saying,"Are you wounded?"
41528The other one was silent, I remarked, what do you say?
41528There we stood, not a word was spoken above a whisper, when we heard a regular snarl close by, then Barnes said,"What is that?"
41528This is a good mule you have got; will you sell her?
41528Turning to Mr. Einstein, Do you know this man; can I rely on him?
41528Turning to me he said, You belong to Walker''s Brigade?
41528Turning to me he said, where are you going?
41528Well Ike, old fellow, how are you getting along?
41528Well did you not get it?
41528Well, what are you going to do?
41528Were you forced into the army or did you volunteer?
41528What brought you here, said he?
41528What did you do it for?
41528What do you ask?
41528What do you say?
41528What good would it do to implicate you?"
41528What is all this assemblage here doing?
41528What is the matter, Bill?
41528What is your name?
41528What kind of money?
41528What route are you going?
41528What time will the boat leave for Columbus?
41528What was in the letter, what did he say?
41528What will you give me?
41528What will you take for it?
41528What''s the matter I said, seeing everybody catching their horses?
41528When I told him that one of the men were sick, he said"You see that puppy, is he not the finest you have ever seen?"
41528When the same fellow called again, Hello you negro, I told you to come here, did you hear me?
41528Where are they?"
41528Where are we going?
41528Where are you going?
41528Where are you going?"
41528Which way?
41528Who told you so?
41528Who wrote them?
41528Who''s that you got there?
41528Why did n''t Jack eat his supper?
41528You say he is a good saddle horse?
41528You say that would not amount to much with what we have to oppose them?
41528You will also give me my dinner and fill my haversack with provisions to last me home?
41528[ Illustration:"Madam, have you spilled your vegetables?"
41528are you hurt?
41528says I?
41528what did you tell them?"
42099''Dis? 42099 ''How is that sentry out there?''
42099''Look here, my man, just let me pass, will you? 42099 ''Look here, my man,''said he,''do you see that soldier out there?''
42099''Now,''said our leader,''do you want a good dinner-- one of the very best?'' 42099 ''Well, how am I going to find out?''
42099''What means this?'' 42099 ''What schooner is that?''
42099''Why, doctor, what''s the matter?'' 42099 Any more rebel sentiment in you that wants washing out?
42099Any one been wrongin''you, sir? 42099 Any thing wrong?"
42099Are we safe?
42099Are you caterer of your mess?
42099Are you on an even keel now, my hearty?
42099Are you ready to take back what you said?
42099But tell me one thing, Jack,said Frank, his face still covered with his hands,"Am I a coward?"
42099But, to change the subject, how many men did you lose in the action to- day?
42099Ca n''t yees be aisy, I say? 42099 Can you furnish me with a copy of those regulations?"
42099Did he?
42099Did n''t the Yanks see you as you came up?
42099Do n''t know,replied the rebel;"but, I say, Yank, will you let a fellow come over there?"
42099Do n''t you know that this room is n''t iron- clad?
42099Do you call this thing a hat?
42099Do you hear what I tell you?
42099Do you think he has improved any with your help?
42099Go on; what next?
42099Going back to your ship, eh? 42099 Harry, what is the matter with you?"
42099Have you indeed succeeded?
42099How are you now, Johnny?
42099How is it now?
42099I have n''t, eh? 42099 I then lay down by the side of the road, and in a few moments Sam whispered:"''Bill, I wonder what''s the number of this post?''
42099If you must execute us,said Frank, in a husky voice,"why not let us die like men, and not like criminals?"
42099In the first place,said he,"I guess you have found that we are in earnest, have n''t you?"
42099Mr. Nelson,shouted the captain,"what are you doing?
42099Say, Yank,continued the rebel,"do you see a hole in the crown of that hat?"
42099Say, you rebel,exclaimed Frank,"why did n''t you tell me that you had stuck a bayonet into my cap?"
42099The prisoners, sir,began the sergeant----"Well, what''s the trouble with them?"
42099Then I did not expose you needlessly, did I, Jack?
42099These two white men he caught,said Lieutenant Somers,"what were they?
42099Tom,said Frank, addressing himself to the quarter- master, as the two were standing their watch that evening,"how came you to go to sea?"
42099Wal, Yank, what do you want now?
42099Well, Frank,exclaimed Keys, as the former entered and took his place at the table,"was the captain glad to see you?"
42099Well, what did the old man say?
42099Well, what else?
42099Well, what in the world possessed you to hoodwink Mr. French in this manner?
42099What are you doing there, sir?
42099What did you say your business was, Yank?
42099What do you mean, sir? 42099 What do you take back?"
42099What does that flag of truce mean? 42099 What seems to be the matter, Mr. Martin?
42099What shall I do? 42099 What will you give?"
42099What''s the matter now, sergeant?
42099What''s the matter, colonel?
42099What''s the matter, sir?
42099What''s the meaning of all this?
42099Where are the guerrillas, Jack?
42099Where are they?
42099Where do you get your grub?
42099Where was that?
42099Who has abused you, sir?
42099Who is making them? 42099 Why are you not at your post?
42099Wo n''t the lazy Yankees get up? 42099 You''re sure you do n''t intend to swindle a fellow?
42099''Got any?''
42099''Have n''t you got sense enough to know that you are dangerously wounded?
42099''If some one should happen to come along without the countersign, and I should want to call the corporal, I would be in a nice fix, would n''t I?''
42099''Is he a scout?
42099And how had he escaped without even a scratch?
42099And then, when and how had he been guilty of disrespect to his superior officer?
42099Are there any rebels there?"
42099Are we likely to have a brush?"
42099Are you crazy, sir?"
42099Are you going to surrender?"
42099As soon as they had fairly started, the orderly sergeant galloped up beside Frank, and inquired:"Yank, how did you get out of that cabin that night?
42099At this moment a shaggy head, nearly covered up with a slouch hat, was thrust in at the door, and a voice inquired:"Are you all right now, Yank?
42099At your old tricks again so soon?"
42099Bill,"whined Charles, writhing like an eel in Harry''s strong grasp,"are you going to sit there and see me abused in this manner?
42099But have we your permission to come ashore and bury our dead?"
42099But what am I to do?"
42099But what do you suppose we care for that dish- rag?
42099But what else did you hear?"
42099But what were you going to say?"
42099But what''s your hurry?"
42099But where are you going?"
42099But why did they not fire through the bulk- head?
42099But why have n''t you been around to see a fellow?
42099But, to change the subject again, what did you come down here to fight us for?"
42099Could he be mistaken?
42099Could it be possible that he had heard aright, and that he was in reality a condemned man?
42099Did n''t you hear that drum?''
42099Did you see''Nuisance''when he came out of his room?
42099Do you ever have as good a supper as this on board your men- o''-war?"
42099Do you feel able to walk up there?''
42099Do you know what you are about?
42099Had the Concord been disabled, and was the captain about to run her ashore and surrender?
42099Have you allowed them to escape?"
42099He boldly entered this creek, but had not proceeded far when a voice hailed:"Who comes there?"
42099Here, sir,"he continued, turning to Frank, who happened to be the nearest officer,"can you make those signals?"
42099How can you stay at home?"
42099Howe?"
42099I wonder if there is any thing wrong?"
42099I wonder if this darkey ranks me?
42099In a few moments the captain had made out the signal, which was,"How do you succeed?"
42099In the present instance, this seemed very poor policy; for what good would it do to make objections to the order after his men had been sacrificed?
42099Is the captain in the parlor?"
42099Morton, what are you about, sir?
42099Now, what is there out in the country that you go to see so often?"
42099Pointing to a chair, he inquired, as he commenced turning over the leaves of the memorandum- book:"Mr. Keys, is this some of your work?"
42099Shake hands with a feller, wo n''t ye?''
42099Shall we go up?"
42099Should they spring out and overpower the sentry where he sat?
42099The effect of this question, so abruptly put, was astounding, and Frank could only falter--"Sir?
42099The negro was to accompany him, and as Frank saw them about to move off, he inquired, carelessly:"Have n''t you got another horse?
42099Then, in a louder tone, came the question,''Did you keep a good look- out for that smuggler, as we requested?''
42099They at once took us for some of their scouts, and one of them inquired:"''How are the Yanks?''
42099They reached it in safety, when the executive said, triumphantly:"What do you think now?
42099They were just in the"nick of time,"for, as they approached, they distinctly heard a voice inquire:"Where''s the colonel?
42099To his surprise, however, the rebel eagerly advanced to meet him, and, extending his hand, greeted him with:"How are you, Nelson?
42099To the challenge,''Who comes there?''
42099Want your prisoners also?"
42099Well, when do you suppose you will be home again for good?"
42099Were their services needed below Vicksburg, and were they about to imitate the Queen of the West, and run by the batteries in broad daylight?
42099What could be the meaning of this new move?
42099What did you wish?"
42099What do you and your master go out into the country for, twice every week?"
42099What do you intend to do with a fellow, Johnny?''
42099What do you say?
42099What do you want here?
42099What does he know about soldiering?''
42099When they had approached within speaking distance, Frank inquired:"Well, uncle, is there any chance for a hungry man to get any thing to eat in here?"
42099Where are you going?''
42099Who says you did, sir?"
42099Why are you not at the front, where you belong?
42099Why do n''t you start, sir?"
42099Will you allow me to look at them?"
42099Will you give me men enough to recover it?"
42099Will you have the kindness to call away the first cutter?"
42099Will you keep an eye on the baby?''
42099Will you oblige me by giving three cheers for the boys who are fighting our battles-- every day risking their lives in defense of the old flag?"
42099Wo n''t he get his rations stuffed into him?"
42099Wo n''t the Johnnies be surprised when they call all hands in the morning, and find us missin''?"
42099Would I survive the experiment?
42099Yankees?"
42099exclaimed Charles, at this moment, coming alongside and stretching out a hand to each of them,"how are you?
42099how de do?
42099is this you, me boy?"
5853Any guerrillas?
5853Is it a good road, and how far?
5853What do you know of Uncle Billy?
5853What is to be done with the freedmen?
5853Can it be that such a resort finds root in any stratum of American opinion?
5853Could not such a camp be established about Pocotaligo or Coosawhatchie?
5853Could not such escaped slaves find at least a partial supply of food in the rice- fields about Savannah, and cotton plantations on the coast?
5853Davis, etc.?
5853General Blair simply asked,"Do you like it?"
5853General Grant remarked,"What is to prevent their laying the rails again?"
5853If the rebel leaders were to arm the slaves, what would be its effect?
5853Should we allow them to escape, etc.?
5853So that the only questions that remained were, would he surrender at Raleigh?
5853State in what manner you would rather live--whether scattered among the whites, or in colonies by yourselves?
5853State what you understand by slavery, and the freedom that was to be given by the President''s proclamation?
5853State what, in your opinion, is the best way to enlist colored men as soldiers?
5853Then followed the question,"Is Fort McAllister taken?"
5853What signified the terms to them, so long as we obtained the actual surrender of people who only wanted a good opportunity to give up gracefully?
5853What was to be done with the rebel armies when defeated?
5853Who have prompted him?
5853Why was this, or why was all mention of any field of duty for the head of the army left out of the army regulations?
49444And is that all-- is that the head and front of your offending?
49444And those are your sentiments, as therein expressed, toward our cause, Madam?
49444But hold; here I am talking quite foolishly, for how do I know that either of those ladies would accept? 49444 But how old would that be?"
49444But what does it mean?
49444Have I the pleasure of addressing that lady now?
49444I am Mrs. E. Will you come in, Sir?
49444I suppose, then, the summons is imperative and I must go?
49444Is Mrs. E. at home?
49444May I inquire, Sir, speaking of being under orders, what your orders are?
49444There is Miss Emma; how old is she? 49444 What do I think of him?
49444What do you think of him, Miss Emma, and how will we be likely to fare in his charge?
49444What dreadful noise is that?
49444What is the matter, Lieutenant, you look so pale?
49444What''s the matter?
49444Why, Sir, what do you mean?
49444), is that the word for a man seeking a companion?
49444And who in America have been so much favored in the past with leisure as the people of the South?
49444And will this be honorable to the last?
49444Approaching us at the counter, with quizzing eye, and an air of triumph, she said:"Well, Sir, how did you like the speech yesterday?"
49444As near as we can calculate we had about three thinks: First, who was the Doctor?
49444But dare I say it(?
49444But do I love her well enough to make a wife of her?
49444But is it true in my experience?
49444But many are running to and fro in the earth, and knowledge is being increased; for the runners, are they not making books for the million?
49444But on the question, What shall be done, what measures adopted, what course pursued, to make the most and the best out of the situation?
49444But sense replied: Why where''s the harm?
49444But the cause, what do you suppose it is?
49444But what could the charge mean?
49444But where find we in life, sensations new?
49444But which one first?
49444But why do we thus comment?
49444But, meanwhile, what had been going on at the house of Mrs. E.?
49444But, my dear lady, what are the Doctor''s grievances when compared with those of Christ and his Apostles?
49444Can I not have the holy sacrament to my comfort before I die?"
49444Can you be ready in that time?"
49444Did you ever see the downcast look of a sheep thief?
49444Do you see anything of Judge Campbell''s son here?"
49444Do you see anything of old Sam Houston here?"
49444Do you see anything of young Sam Houston here?"
49444Endure(?
49444Have you been committing some enormous crime that deserves the punishment of expatriation?
49444Here handing her the letter, he inquired:"Mrs. E., do you recognize the letter as yours?"
49444How dar''st thou blot The honor of my little Dot, With lies from out thy lying throat, Each lie a mountain from a mote?
49444I see a new order of things here since I left; how do you like it?"
49444I wonder if nature is?
49444If not, why was he there at that late day?
49444Is it far, Sir?"
49444Now what is a man to do with an experience so in violation of the orthodox teaching and steady habits of the olden times of our ancestors?
49444Or was it ominous of that fearful struggle of blood which afterward rent the country for four long years?
49444Our assailant paled, and looked as if his heart were quoting the interrogatory of the ancient devils:"Hast thou come to torment me before my time?"
49444Preposterous, do you say?
49444Relieving the highway of its presence, and casting it into the brush by the wayside, they passed on, querrying,"What next in the line of sensation?"
49444S.?"
49444She looked a little pale, as if she might not have rested well the entire night, which induced him to ask:"Are you quite well this morning, Mrs. E.?
49444Suppose she were but forty; how would that do?
49444The Lieutenant here mischievously inquired,"Mrs. E., is it here you would like to escape from me''into the deep tangled wildwood?''"
49444The argument looked plausible to the green ones, did n''t it, reader?
49444The desert(?)
49444The question is, why is the country so overstocked with this kind of grape?
49444The writer has been asked a hundred and one times:"How did you escape the army?"
49444Was it for amusement or a farcical burlesque on the governments of the Old World?
49444We walked up and saluted them, saying,"How are you, gentlemen?
49444Well, I think I could, or do(?
49444What am I about?
49444What say you, Sir, to this?"
49444What shall I do?
49444Woman''s a name for falsity, A dark and deep immensity Of mystery-- who can explain?
49444and echo will answer, where?
49444and have we been fighting each other?
49444and may I know what for?
49444and third, who were we?
49444and yet what would you think of the idea that they carried deadly weapons to defend their characters and persons with?
49444in?"
49444second, who was the lady addressing us?
5851Now, where is the proper place to break it?
5851What is your badge?
58511, but are in the immediate neighborhood, on their plantations?
5851Can we whip the South?
5851General Halleck had a map on his table, with a large pencil in his hand, and asked,"where is the rebel line?"
5851Halleck''s telegram of last night says:"Who sent Smith''s division to Nashville?
5851Has any thing been heard from the troops ordered from Vicksburg?
5851He dropped out of the retinue with an orderly, and after we had ridden a mile or so he overtook us, and I asked him,"What luck?"
5851He said:"What is the use of your persevering?
5851He turned to me and said,"Ca n''t you take your regiment up there?"
5851I answered, rather shortly,''How the devil do you know there is a masked battery?
5851I answered:"How can you go to New York?
5851I asked Deshler:"What does this mean?
5851I had on my undress uniform indicating my rank, and inquired of the sentinel,"Is General Fremont up?"
5851I said I had come to see him on business; and he added,"You do n''t suppose that he will see such as you?"
5851If you ca n''t get over, how can the rebels get at you?''
5851Mr. Lincoln, who was still standing, said,"Threatened to shoot you?"
5851Of parties claiming foreign protection?
5851Renick said,"What do you want with General Fremont?"
5851Sherman said to me:"Admiral, how could you make such a remark to McClernand?
5851What can I do for you?"
5851When ground is owned by parties who have gone south, and have leased the ground to parties now in the city who own the improvements on the ground?
5851When houses are occupied and the owner has gone south, leaving an agent to collect rent for his benefit?
5851When houses are owned by loyal citizens, but are unoccupied?
5851When movable property is found in stores that are closed?
5851When parties owning houses have gone south, and the tenant has given his notes for the rent in advance?
5851When parties who occupy the house are creditors of the owner, who has gone south?
5851When the owner has gone south, and parties here hold liens on the property and are collecting the rents to satisfy their liens?
5851When the owner lives in town, and refuses to take the oath of allegiance?
5851When the tenant has expended several months''rent in repairs on the house?
5851Why do you not obey my orders to report strength and positions of your command?
5851where are they to come from?"
23624''Course I know we''re the tall men of the army, but ai n''t this runnin''the odds a mite high?
23624''Member how Mam Gusta used to make us those dough geese? 23624 ''Member-- sniffles?

23624Do n''t figure to find anything worth takin''on a Reb do you, Hatch? 23624 Do n''t you think I know it?"
23624Do you have any news about the Cumberland River, suh?
23624Drew, are things really so bad for us?
23624Drew, is Boyd here with you?

23624Have you had a hard time? 23624 Have you talked this over with her-- enlistin'', I mean?"
23624He gave you what?
23624He''s a Reb, like you----"Have you used this place before?
23624How bad?
23624How bad?
23624How come you workin''on your critter''s rump with a double of rope? 23624 How many''boys''?"

23624I take it that you do not approve of blue bellies, Boyd?
23624I understand,he said in his dry, precise voice,"there is a pressing need for quinine, morphine, and the like in the South?"
23624I''m to stay put until relieved, suh?
23624Is Cadiz a Union town?
23624Is that true, suh?

23624Might be cover for Union scouts after all, suh?
23624More company comin''?
23624Mr. Dandy--Drew walked his horse on, Croxton sagging in his hold, his weight a heavy pull on his bearer''s tired arms--"do you remember me?
23624Nashville? 23624 No sign of that missin''scout?"
23624No, I ai n''t Boyd''s idea of a returnin''hero, am I?
23624No, you thinkin''he was this renegade officer Kirby was talkin''about? 23624 No?

23624Reckon the boys must have lighted on your own private cache, eh, fella? 23624 Remember enough to find your way around?"
23624Rumors of that around?
23624Satisfied, soldier?
23624Say we was to gobble us up a bunch of strayin''Yankees along this road, what''re we gon na do with''em after? 23624 Say, you hungry?
23624Scattered some, ai n''t we?
23624Sergeant, what''s all this about bushwhackers?

23624Stage an ambush?
23624Startin''back, Sarge?
23624Suh, where did you get those spurs?
23624Supposin''those sentries we passed back there were knocked out and two of us took their places and the other two then laid a trail leadin''here?
23624Thank--? 23624 That big stallion?"
23624The Calhoun place?
23624The big fight is comin''--"Nashville?

23624What about you, Injun?
23624What are we going to do there?

23624Wotcha gon na do wi''us, Reb?
23624Would you be so kind as to direct me to where I may find the Union commander?
23624Yankees?
23624Yeah, how? 23624 Yeah, what about it?"
23624Yes, suh?
23624You Kaintuck bound?
23624You Union?
23624You come back to see your grandfather, Drew?
23624You do n''t think it''s goin''to work?
23624You expectin''some friends?
23624You expectin''to meet some friends heah?
23624You fixin''on havin''a showdown with the captain, Hatch?
23624You from Gano''s Company?
23624You have business in Cadiz, suh? 23624 You have men picked?"
23624You headin''somewheah special, Cap''n?
23624You mean when Santa Anna came trottin''in with his tail high, thinkin''as how he could talk harsh to some of us Tejanos?
23624You mean-- we hold up some Yankees and just take their uniforms an''carbines an''things?
23624You men-- what are you doing here?
23624You one of Quirk''s rough- string scout boys, ai n''t you? 23624 You really are Morgan''s men?"
23624You soldier men?
23624You stayed near- by for a while after the camp was taken?
23624You swim?
23624You tell the kid?
23624You want me to find out about the funds and the river crossin''near there?
23624You want these?
23624You were unable to hear any news of him?
23624You''re from John Hunt Morgan, young man?
23624You''re not goin''to start out this very afternoon, are you?
23624You''ve heard the news, of course, sir? 23624 You, Larange, take''em back to the picket line, will you?"
23624You, suh--the solid citizen turned his horse to face the scout--"what gives you the right to take that mule?"
23624You_ are_ Union scouts?
2362415_ Independent Scout_"What did the doc say?"
236246_ Horse Trade_"What''s this heah Calhoun like?"
23624A hoss like that has him wind an''power to burn--""You raised horses before the war?"
23624About Red Springs, you mean?
23624After all, how could you make a demand like that more courteous or soft?
23624Ai n''t far to sundown, an''we oughta git some countryside between us an''them rip- snortin''javalinas--""Javalinas?"
23624And by whom?
23624And it''s true then, ai n''t it, Drew?
23624And what happened?
23624And what''s the matter with that man?
23624And where may I find the inn?"
23624Any news of the kid?"
23624Any sign of a pot--?"
23624Anybody ridin''from Pulaski to Columbia has to turn out and take this other way--""Good cover on it?"
23624As he swung up on the Yankee horse and took Hannibal''s lead halter, Drew asked a question:"Ever seem to you, Anse, like the army''s home?
23624Because most of them could no longer understand any other way of life?
23624Beyond that of swapping that firebreather of yours for another mount, I mean?
23624Buford''s division?"
23624Buford''s?"
23624But dared they stay here?
23624But how could they get into enemy hands the information about this rats''nest?
23624But if there''s a Union garrison--?"
23624But now-- riding with Rafe, watching in the paddock-- where was Alexander Mattock?
23624But what if the"captain"and the remaining members of this outlaw gang arrived before Kirby returned with help?
23624But where_ is_ he?"
23624But--""Think I''d lie to you about that?"
23624But_ could_ he take it?
23624Campbell spoke directly to Drew:"You know anything about this section of the country?"
23624Captured?"
23624Croxton?
23624Did I tell you about Standish?
23624Did n''t they say a man had"gone to Texas"when the sheriff closed books on a fugitive?
23624Did n''t you know about that?"
23624Did you ever think, boy, of what you were goin''to do after the war?"
23624Did you note those neat patches on my breeches--?"
23624Do I understand we are about to be favored by a visit from General Morgan?"
23624Drew reined in the black again and asked another question:"What happened... the war?"
23624Drew, after this war is over and we''ve licked the Yankees good and proper, why do n''t we go down that way and see Texas?
23624Drew?"
23624Even the horny toads would spit straight in a Yankee''s eye--""How''bout it, Sarge?"
23624Everythin''all right?"
23624Five years ago-- only five years?
23624General Morgan''s coming back here?
23624Git sight of some blue belly hangin''out to dry- gulch us?"
23624Got him a lick on the head, eh?
23624He dared not erupt into the bushwhacker campsite, or could he?
23624He had a mule, did n''t he?
23624He had one meetin''--""You mean one of them pistol duels?"
23624He still eyed Drew straightly, but there was a ruefulness rather than hostile defiance in his voice as he asked:"What do you plan to do with us?"
23624He wanted to laugh, or was it really laughter which lumped in his throat?
23624Hear that, amigos?"
23624Here''s Skedaddle, himself, just aching to show heels to the blue bellies, ai n''t you?"
23624How come sonny boy here''s askin''for him then?"
23624How come you know all''bout this hay- stuff, Anse?"
23624How did you get them?"
23624How long had it been since the Texan left?
23624How long you think he''s gon na take to bein''corraled that way?"
23624How many''boys''?"
23624How''bout it, kid?
23624I maybe do n''t weah no blue coat regular, but whiskey sounds sorta refreshin'', do n''t it, now?"
23624I was one of the lucky ones who made it across the river before the Yankees caught up--""At Chickamauga?"
23624Is n''t there something you can do?
23624Is there anything you need?"
23624It was Boyd who asked,"What do you mean?"
23624It''s a long line of battles, ai n''t it, boy?
23624Jus''like a bunch of ants, ai n''t they?
23624Kirby, his powder- blackened face only inches away from that of the man he had seized by a handful of shirt front, demanded:"How do you know?"
23624Kirby?
23624Kirby?"
23624Know anything about the town?"
23624Know where that is?"
23624Like it''s always been, and you''ve always been a part of it?"
23624My grandfather wanted the place to be just Aunt Marianna''s, did n''t he?"
23624New kind of hardtack?"
23624No sign of Weatherby?"
23624Not Sheldon, of course, but who?
23624Not here-- where?
23624Not to go home....""Home?"
23624Now what''s this about an island downriver?"
23624Officers shouted here and there, trying to slow that steady advance-- why?
23624Only, nowadays, how long was"always"?
23624Or ai n''t you never heard tell of Forrest''s Cavalry?
23624Or do you expect to be dragged?"
23624Owns a big farm and raises prime mules--""You know him personally?"
23624Pass out on us agin?
23624Rather-- why not?
23624Ride up to their camp an''say,''We know wheah at theah''s some bushwhackers, come''n see''?"
23624Ride?
23624Say, that theah stud you got, Rennie, how''s he workin''out?"
23624Shot?"
23624Should he try to urge it into new life with the last of the wood, or would the dark be more to his benefit?
23624Simmy''s cap''n?
23624So John Morgan''s coming to pay us a visit?"
23624So he''s sick, eh?
23624So what''s the difference?
23624So why should he have lied to keep Drew with him at Red Springs?
23624So, how we gon na spread ourselves--?"
23624Some of them fast workers from B Company are gittin''set....""The cap''n know about this?"
23624Supposin''this fightin''heah stops... you ridin''for Texas?"
23624Take the Yankees off our trail and put them to doing something for us....""Sic''em in heah, eh?"
23624That tiny glint of metal moved, or was it the booted foot which had twitched?
23624The Brazos, the Rio country, West Texas?
23624The Yankees have it just as bad, do n''t they?"
23624The duel was_ not_ Hunt''s fault----""Uncle Murray and my father fought a duel?"
23624Then he added in a rush,"General who, sir?"
23624Then, just because of his inner fears, he forced out the words:"Where''s Boyd?"
23624These here Rebs ai n''t gon na be no trouble-- is you, sonny?"
23624They''ll need schools though, and someone to teach''em--""You a teacher, Injun?"
23624Though I must say they do n''t display much spirit, do they?
23624Through the gathering dusk he could see distant splotches of red and yellow-- were they fires?
23624Unless he was otherwise occupied.... How?
23624Was he in a cabin?
23624Was he taken too?
23624Was it all because of Father?
23624Was it someone making his way through a small window?
23624Was the army pulling out?
23624We ca n''t take on all of Sherman''s bully boys--""Got him riled, though, ai n''t we?
23624We smashed''em proper over at Cynthiana--""You did?
23624We''s Union, ai n''t we, Jas''?"
23624Whar at is he?"
23624What about you, Rennie?
23624What kinda company you bin keepin'', kid?
23624What part of Texas you from-- Brazos?"
23624What sort of a chance do they think they''ll have against_ General Morgan_?"
23624What then had happened to Weatherby?
23624What was it like?
23624What was one patch on the seat nowadays?
23624What would you do, especially if your troops were mostly militia and green men who had n''t ever been in a real fight?"
23624What you got, Reb?"
23624What''s his name and company, Sergeant?
23624What''s the matter?"
23624Wheah to now-- this heah river?"
23624When Drew first joined the army and met Texans he had hoped that one of them might recognize his name and say:"Rennie?
23624When were the Yankees going to learn that a saber was good for the toasting of bacon and such but not much use in the fight?
23624Where''s the General now, Drew?"
23624Where?
23624Where?"
23624Which way to sniff out a Yankee?"
23624Who does what?"
23624Why ca n''t we get something to eat?"
23624Why did you do it, Drew?
23624Why ever a trade?"
23624Why?
23624Why?
23624Will you bring up the division to join General Chalmers?
23624Would you believe it?
23624Yankees an''whiskey go together; that''s what she said, ai n''t it?
23624You able to understand that?"
23624You any kin to the Rennies of-"Of where?
23624You boys know the drill?"
23624You comin'', Rennie?"
23624You done any fancy work with a bowie lately?"
23624You figgerin''to take this kid home personal?"
23624You got him here too?"
23624You had a war down that way, remember?"
23624You have any idea wheah at we are, or wheah we could be headin''?"
23624You have kin here, Hart?"
23624You ready to ride right outta heah an''chase General Grant clean back to Lake Erie?"
23624You ready to ride, Hart?"
23624You remember Granger Wood, Justin?"
23624You remember Jim Dandy, Drew?"
23624You take first watch, Injun?"
23624You there, Shelly?"
23624You want Simmy to bring in Petey, Hatch?"
23624You willing to take the flag in when we get there, Rennie?
23624You''ve been using that mule of yours to get some of the horses over, have n''t you?"
23624You, Mr. Boyd, what you doing riding with these here Rebs?
23624Your losses?"
23624dead?"
23624know?"
23624you?"
6962And what became of the rest?
6962What bad luck?
6962As soon as the siege of Knoxville was raised, he applied himself earnestly to the question, What next?
6962But how as to amnesty?
6962Do n''t military success imply the safety of Sambo, and_ vice versa_?...
6962He telegraphed the news to Rosecrans with the significant question, What does it mean?
6962If the law- abiding were disarmed and those who scattered and refused to give up their weapons were at large, how could the States preserve the peace?
6962It concluded,"Would it not be well to put Sherman and all other commanding generals on their guard in this respect?"
6962One of the first questions a soldier asks in regard to his camping- place is, Where is water to be got?
6962The Confederate cause was unquestionably in great straits, and calling for men and means was a good deal like Glendower''s call,"Will they come?"
6962The question would naturally arise, What might happen in the places from which troops were drawn, if they were not used by Johnston immediately?
6962There were no doubt difficulties in the way-- when are there not?
6962What, then, as to slavery?
6962When discussing a situation with his familiars, after strongly stating his own view he would add,"Now what is Joe Johnston''s game?"
6962Will you be on this part of the line soon?"
6962Would the Ninth Corps remain in the department, or would it be ordered to the East for duty under Burnside, as was already rumored?
6962a regimental wag cried out,"do they issue butter to you regularly now?"
6962if your horse is so weak on Sunday what would have become of him and you on a week day?"
41995And you intend to fight for the south, do you?
41995Are the Yankees that near?
41995Are there many cases to be disposed of?
41995Are you up a tree?
41995But what was our cavalry doing,I asked,"that they did n''t pursue and capture the villains?"
41995But where were you going?
41995But you have been constantly away, running around after the Indians,he continued;"how is it you wish to vote here?"
41995Calvin Reeves?
41995Can you not, then, give me something to eat?
41995Did the Yanks ever find out that Terry had him captured?
41995Did you see him, yourself?
41995Do n''t know no more; does you know it all? 41995 Do you refuse to kiss the book?"
41995Do you remember that Yankee''s name?
41995Do you want to ship?
41995Do you wish to see_ him_, sir?
41995Good on your head,said the Lieutenant;"but, Captain, what in the world were you doing in the Yankee lines?"
41995Gwine after the Comanches?
41995Have you killed any of our dogs?
41995Have you nothing to say?
41995How came you to be there? 41995 How did he behave himself?"
41995How do you want to vote?
41995How far does Terry live from here?
41995How far is it to de forks ob de road? 41995 How far is it, ole man, to de nex house?
41995How is it that you want to vote here?
41995How many are there of you?
41995I say ole man, is ye gwine ter let me stay all nite? 41995 I say, ole man, whar doe dis road go to, rad di di da di di da da?"
41995Injuns?
41995Is not that a Yankee uniform you are wearing?
41995Is that so?
41995Let me see; did n''t he catch a Yank at his house about a year ago?
41995Look here, old man,said I savagely,"if I let you live, do you think you will trouble Union men in this county again?"
41995Madam, I am a stranger; how should I know which house you were in?
41995Master,he said piteously,"you is n''t gwine to kill me, is ye?"
41995Not at all, sir,was my answer,"an honest man is never afraid of being watched?"
41995O you villain,she shouted;"Is that you?
41995Por donde vamos?
41995Que quiere alla?
41995Say, young man,said the party,"do n''t you want to go to Texas?"
41995Then, why did n''t you vote there?
41995Then, you can tell me a good place to go and hide, ca n''t you?
41995Tom Green; but, madam, what do you want?
41995Was n''t his name Pike, instead of Spikes?
41995Was there a man passed here about dark, afoot and dressed in Yankee uniform?
41995We are all well, I believe,said the lieutenant, eyeing me closely;"what command do you belong to, sir?"
41995We only guessed at it; but what is the news?
41995Well, how is it,he asked,"that you are on foot?"
41995Well, no,he said; then turning to a man at his side he asked:"Is Jim B---- in town?"
41995Well, what do you want here, this time of night?
41995Well, what were you doing in my house this time of night; why did n''t you come to the house we live in; what did you go there for? 41995 Well,"he continued,"if your command is there, what are you doing here by yourself?"
41995What are you doing in my house at the dead hours of the night?
41995What are you doing in our country?
41995What captain?
41995What did our men do with the Yank?
41995What do you want me to do?''
41995What fellows? 41995 What is their nature generally?"
41995What is your Captain''s name?
41995What is your Captain''s name?
41995What is your Colonel''s name?
41995What is your name, and what are you doing here?
41995What is your name, then?
41995What is your regiment?
41995What part of Texas were you from?
41995What were you about to do to me?
41995What were you going there for?
41995What''s that?
41995Where are you from?
41995Where are you going now?
41995Where are you going?
41995Where do you live?
41995Where do you live?
41995Where is your command?
41995Where is your horse?
41995Where was that?
41995Who are you?
41995Who are you?
41995Who did he say he was?
41995Who is your friend?
41995Whose company is this?
41995Whose house were you left at?
41995Why did not the officers make the fort stronger?
41995Why do n''t yer put de roof on when it ai nt a rainen? 41995 Why do n''t you go over there to the camp, and get something to eat?''
41995Why do you wear it?
41995Why you no shoot''um?
41995Why, what in the name of God, does that mean?
41995Why,I asked,"have you not seen him yet?
41995Why,said she,"what do you want?"
41995Wo n''t bring''em to trial?
41995Yes, sir,I replied,"but I will call again; what time do you expect him back?"
41995You lie, you son of a gun; did n''t I just send a man after you, to tell you to come down here?
41995You live in Paris, Bourbon county, Kentucky?
41995You say he went the''cut off?''
41995You think you will stick to your principles, when you get there?
41995ai n''t you a preacher?
41995( where are you going?)
41995( where do you come from?)
41995After I had made my report, the General turned to me and said:"How many rebels are there at Bridgeport?"
41995After having mounted, I rode down to the bluff and called out:"Madam, my name is Pike; what will you have?"
41995After he had left, an officer on the platform said:"Do you know who that man was?"
41995And then amid the confusion resulting from it, would it not be possible to give a little attention to the powder mill, and blow it to fragments?
41995As I reached our line again, I hailed a body of troops with:"What brigade is this?"
41995As soon as this was done, the captain turned to me and said:"Young man, are you a ship carpenter?"
41995But I had not proceeded more than a hundred yards before I was called back, and one of them said to me:"You say you are going home?"
41995But do you want any money, or disguise?"
41995But how?
41995But why add more relative to the horrors of this filthy pen?
41995But why enlarge upon facts patent to the world?
41995But, massa, what might I call you?"
41995Can you do anything to save it?"
41995Captain, allow me to ask what you are doing so close to the Yankee pickets, and_ alone_?"
41995Could I slip around and burn it?
41995Do you see that?"
41995Everybody and his son were after him, and why should n''t I go?
41995For a moment the squaw hesitated, and then lowering the club said:"If your name ai n''t Pike, what is it?"
41995He prefaced his remarks with the very pertinent question:"Is you from Texas?"
41995He raised his eyes, and seeing only a strange officer and soldier at his side, opened them wide and replied:"La, massa, how did you know dat?"
41995I demanded;"were you not in the act of shooting me?"
41995I had certainly not been indiscreet?
41995I well knew that at least a portion of our army was near them, or why the firing I had heard?
41995I wonder how they would have liked their men traveled on empty stomachs?
41995If the object was legitimate, it occurred to me, why this secrecy?
41995My first exclamation was,"Well, boys, I am glad to see you; how do you all get along, and what is the news from the army?"
41995One fellow, who was much closer to me than the others, bawled out at the top of his voice:"Who fired that shot?"
41995Seeing this the Lieutenant inquired:"What do you say, boys, shall we fight with them?"
41995She was eyeing me curiously now, and presently she asked:"Stranger; what is your name?"
41995Such were his meditations that he did not notice us till we addressed him:"Uncle,"I asked, after saying how dee?
41995Then turning to me, she said:"Stranger, what is your name?"
41995They eyed me several times exceedingly closely; and I asked myself: could there be any suspicion against me?
41995This party hallooed and Mrs. White asked:"Who''s there?"
41995This satisfied him, and he went into his tent; but an idle soldier bawled out:"Say, thar; what are you doin''in a Yankee uniform?"
41995Tindsley?"
41995Turning to one of the guard, I said:"Guard, will you untie my feet till I get through this place?"
41995Was I bewitched?
41995We put out guards; but what did they care, now that they had plenty of meat, and palatable water?
41995We started immediately for the town of Auburn, where the mill was located; when the Doctor looked anxiously around, and asked:"Where are your men?"
41995What now, I wondered; was there some scheme on foot against me?
41995What_ did_ bring you so close to the camp?
41995Where do such traditions originate?
41995Where do you want to go?"
41995Where is the sergeant of the guard?"
41995Who are they?"
41995Why are you not with your command?"
41995Without giving me time to answer, one of the armed men came up and addressed me with,"You was afraid to vote there, was you?"
41995Wood, you know, is a perfect dare- devil, and what do you think he proposes to do?
41995said the old woman;"Virginny, do you hear?"
41995she asked;"have n''t they got plenty over there?"
41995then what could that hurried manner, and those sidelong glances portend?
41995this is that Yankee, is it?"
41995what else did they desire?
5850Any chickens?
5850Any eggs?
5850Any flour or grain?
5850Are you a member of the other House?
5850Are you the Governor of a State?
5850Certainly not"Have you ever had a vote of thanks by name?
5850Do you think you could become so interested in my conversation as not to notice the door- keeper?
5850Have you any meat?
5850Is anybody in the house?
5850Is it locked up?
5850Is no one about who can get in?
5850Well,said he,"what do you want of me?"
5850Well,said he,"why do n''t you go into the gallery?"
5850What do you live on?
5850Why?
5850A few days afterward the husband again appealed to his commanding officer( Taylor), who exclaimed:"Have n''t you got a musket?
5850After shaking hands all round, the Governor said,"Coleman, what the devil is the matter here?"
5850At every meal the steward would come to me, and say,"Captain Sherman, will you bring your ladies to the table?"
5850Ca n''t you defend your own family?"
5850Governor of a State?
5850He asked me,"Where?"
5850He inquired,"Why not both?"
5850He then asked in his quizzical way,"Are you a foreign embassador?"
5850He then said,"Have you any impudence?"
5850I touched it and examined one or two of the larger pieces, and asked,"Is it gold?"
5850In that event, would it not be possible for you to become a citizen of our State?
5850Major Childs inquired,"Where is Coacoochee?"
5850Major W. T. Sherman: Will you accept the chief clerkship of the War Department?
5850Mason said to me,"What is that?"
5850Member of Congress?"
5850So that among the younger officers the query was very natural,"Who the devil is Governor of California?"
5850The Governor knocked at the door, and on inquiry from inside"Who''s there?"
5850We then returned to Benicia, and Wool''s first question was,"What luck?"
5850Wo n''t you speak your mind freely on this question of slavery, that so agitates the land?
5850said Mr. Lincoln,"how are they getting along down there?"
6961But where are_ you_ going?
6961Who are you?
6961And where were Burnside''s men?
6961Does one need better evidence how much worse than useless was McClellan''s secret service?
6961Have we time for the sifting process?
6961Here, however, we have to meet the question What is military art as applied to the problem of winning battles or campaigns?
6961I said to the young man,"Did General Reno send you with any order to me?"
6961Is an advance of our army likely to prevent additional reinforcements being sent against General Grant by Bragg?
6961Is an immediate or early advance of our army advisable?
6961The President had coupled his earliest telegraphic congratulations with the question,"Ca n''t you beat them some more before they get off?"
6961To"hold at all hazards"might be understood, but what is the effect of the phrase"if possible"?
6961What d''ye think of that?"
6961What, then, was the plan of battle of which the first step was this movement of Hooker''s?
6961Where should Burnside have been, if not at Cincinnati?
6961Will any other hypothesis intelligibly account for McClellan''s dispositions and orders?
6961Will you neglect the chance?"
31087Are you_ Union_ soldiers?
31087Echo answers where?
31087Stonewall Jackson? 31087 Under which King, Benzonian?"
31087What authority had he for this?
31087What is Randolph?
31087Where is McClellan, general?
31087Will not the Confederate soldiers now in Pennsylvania remember such acts of cruelty and barbarism? 31087 Will they come, when he does call for them?"
31087A few more weeks, at that rate, will consume his army, and then-- peace?
31087A moment after, Gen. Walker, of Georgia, came in, and addressed the colonel thus:"Is the Secretary in?"
31087A safe prediction-- but what is his belief?
31087A. Seddon, Secretary of War: Will you please send me, through the post- office, a passport to leave the city?
31087AUGUST 24TH.--We have nothing further from Charleston, except that Beauregard threatened retaliation( how?)
31087And Mr. Hotze( who is he?)
31087And are they not?
31087And do they not take gold and other property to the North, and thereby defeat the object of the sequestration act?
31087And he supposes Bragg''s splendid victory( what did he suppose the next day?)
31087And how could any of its members escape?
31087And is it nothing to have her soil polluted by the martial tramp of the Yankees at Alexandria and Arlington Heights?
31087And what are we doing?
31087And what are we doing?
31087And what are we fighting for?
31087And what would become of the slaves, especially in Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, and Missouri?
31087And will not that gallant boy in the 16th Regiment remember his mother''s fate, and take vengeance on the enemy?
31087At this rate, how are we to replenish the ranks as they become thinned in battle?
31087Bragg will_ probably_ be sustained by the President-- but then what will become of------, who is so inimical to Bragg?
31087But can he control the State governments?
31087But can he, a modest man and a Christian, aspire to such a position?
31087But how can Lee achieve anything when the enemy is ever kept informed not only of his movements in progress, but of his probable intentions?
31087But how can it be possible for the people of the North to submit to martial law?
31087But how can they be fed?
31087But how does this speak for the government, or rather the efficiency of the men who by"many indirect ways"came into power?
31087But how fares it with the invader?
31087But how long could he advance in that direction without being overwhelmed?
31087But how long will we be allowed to remain?
31087But if a forced reconstruction of the Union were consummated, does the North suppose any advantage would result to that section?
31087But if he could not hold his mountain position, what can he do in the plain?
31087But might they not, if this were adopted, be liable to be caught sometimes without enough ammunition?
31087But suppose it should_ not_ be relieved, and a force should be sent suddenly up the James and York Rivers?
31087But suppose that should be too late?
31087But the gunpowder will be used to destroy the destroyer, man, and why should not the birds sing?
31087But was Beauregard aware of the fact, before the opportunity ceased to exist?
31087But we can not fail without more great battles; and who knows what results may be evolved by them?
31087But what do they mean by the"_ nation_?"
31087But what good will the crops do, if we be subjugated in the mean time?
31087But what is in a name?
31087But what is this"agent"to procure in the United States which could not be had by our steamers plying regularly between Wilmington and Europe?
31087But what may not its ending be?
31087But what were they sent to Lee for, unless he meant to give battle?
31087But where are State Rights now?
31087But where will this end?
31087But who can foresee the future through the smoke of war, and amid the clash of bayonets?
31087But why does the government issue such an order in North Carolina, when the government itself is selling, not destroying, the cotton of Mississippi?
31087But will he?
31087But will the President dismiss his cabinet in time to save Richmond, Virginia, and the cause?
31087But will the government make itself popular with the people?
31087But will the potency of his cabinet feed Lee''s army?
31087But will the_ arms_ be distributed among them?
31087But with flour at$ 200 per barrel; meal,$ 20 per bushel, and meat from$ 2 to$ 5 per pound, what income would suffice?
31087But, then, what is the cotton business?
31087Ca n''t the troops be paid?
31087Can Savannah, and Charleston, and Wilmington be successfully defended?
31087Can he believe the silly tale about our troops being sent from Virginia to the Carolinas?
31087Can he have them?
31087Can it be Gen. Cooper( Northern) who procures the appointment of so many Northern generals in our army?
31087Can it be possible that the United States are ignorant of popular sentiment here?
31087Can it be possible that_ he_ has influenced the President''s mind on this subject?
31087Can it be possible that_ we_ have men in power who are capable of taking bribes from the enemy?
31087Can it be that his hesitation is caused by the advice of the President, in his great solicitude to make the best appointments?
31087Can it be that the President knows nothing of this?
31087Can such a people be subjugated?
31087Can such soldiers be vanquished?
31087Can that be the reason his smile has faded almost away?
31087Can the agents paid by the Signal Bureau be relied on?
31087Can there be war brewing between the United States and England or France?
31087Can they have intelligence from the West, not yet communicated to the public?
31087Can they mean to cross?
31087Can this be so?
31087Can this be the influence of Gen. Cooper?
31087Could Lee make such a blunder?
31087Could a Yankee have been the inventor of the Secretary''s plaything?
31087Could the Union men in the Convention, after being forced to pass the ordinance, have dealt a more fatal blow to their country?
31087Could the operations beneath have produced this phenomenon?
31087Could this communication be his resignation?
31087Could you not ascertain for me?
31087Did Pitt ever practice such things during his contest with Napoleon?
31087Did he have any conception of the surprise the enemy was executing at the moment?
31087Did he influence the mind of his father- in- law, G. W. Park Custis, to emancipate his hundreds of slaves?
31087Did he try them?
31087Did such a people ever exist before?
31087Did the Continental Government ever resort to such equivocal expedients?
31087Did the President know it yesterday?
31087Did they really suffer pain from their wounds?
31087Do they object to my acquaintance with the members?

6812''Where did Lincoln learn his surveying?'' 6812 Did you not pledge yourselves to assist me as sheriff in the arrest of any person against whom I might have a writ?"
6812I want to ask you a close question-- Are you now, in_ feeling_ as well as_ judgment,_ glad you are married as you are? 6812 What has become of your case?"
6812And who that thinks with me will not fearlessly adopt that oath that I take?
6812But a few days later they saw two men approaching and hailed them with the hunter''s caution,"Hullo, strangers; who are you?"
6812But how unite this opposition made up of Whigs, of Democrats, and of so- called abolitionists?

62332[ 17] FOOTNOTES:[ Footnote 16:_ Is_ General Gillam a son of North- Carolina? 62332 All the circumstances considered, do you think I ought again to be a candidate? 62332 All these demonstrations are likely to pass off as the idle wind, and the great question still remains, What is to be done to save the country? 62332 And I do believe the general feeling was,What else_ can_ he do, with wood at forty dollars a cord?"
62332And second, Whatever_ did_ become of the furniture?
62332And why should they not have been?
62332But how could this be done?
62332Can any other College in the United States say as much?
62332Could the curtain that in mercy vailed the future, have been that day withdrawn, what would have been the emotions of the audience?
62332Did Northern people soberly believe that it was zeal for the Union and hatred of secession that prompted such wholesale plunder in the South?
62332Does any one doubt what would have been Washington''s conduct of the grand army through its unparalleled and immortal march of triumph?
62332Has she no statesman now capable of rising to the magnanimity which characterized her early history?
62332How can I help to win the victory?
62332How shall I guide this suffering and much- oppressed Israel that looks to me through the tangled and bloody pathway wherein our lines have fallen?
62332How shall the South begin her new life?
62332Is not the social status of the South at present without a parallel?
62332Of the twenty- four dead, who shall estimate the loss to their country, and to their families of even these?
62332On one occasion he said to her rudely,"I know you are a rebel from the way you move-- an''t you a rebel?"
62332She replied,"General Gillam, did you ever hear the story of the tailor''s wife and the scissors?"
62332Simple people, who understand nothing of military necessities, must be permitted to stand aghast at such a recital, and ask why was this?
62332The usual answer of all such men, when appealed to on the score of common humanity, was,"What business have these Yankees here?"
62332To what end?
62332Two queries occur: First, Who were the North- Carolinians who instigated this insult to Mrs. Vance?
62332What can I do?
62332What changes have been effected in the_ morale_ of war by nearly a century of Christian progress and civilization since Lord Cornwallis''s day?
62332What could be done?
62332What does this show, my dear sir?
62332What far- sighted policy dictated such wholesale havoc?
62332What was the disposition toward him of the country through which he was passing?
62332What was the policy of its commander under such circumstances toward the people of Carolina?
62332What was to be the result?
62332What were the circumstances of this first rebellion?
62332Where now are the Bowdoins, the Hancocks, the Dexters, the Ames, the Websters of Massachusetts?
62332Where were the hundreds who had thronged these halls four years before?
62332Where, indeed, in all the sunny South were they not?
62332Whither were we tending?
9578And heard and saw ye only wrong And pain,I cried,"O wing- worn flocks?"
9578O wild- birds, flying from the South, What saw and heard ye, gazing down?
9578What price was Ellsworth''s, young and brave? 9578 Why wait we longer, mocked, betrayed, By open foes, or those afraid To speed thy coming through my aid?
9578Why watch to see who win or fall? 9578 ** What words can drown that bitter cry? 9578 --I knew the voice of Peace,--Is there no respite?
9578And he said:"Who hears can never Fear for or doubt you; What shall I tell the children Up North about you?"
9578And is it Christian England cheers The bruiser, not the bruised?
9578And must she run, despite the tears And prayers of eighteen hundred years, Amuck in Slavery''s crusade?
9578And union find in freedom?
9578Did we dare, In our agony of prayer, Ask for more than He has done?
9578For who that leans on His right arm Was ever yet forsaken?
9578How weigh the gift that Lyon gave, Or count the cost of Winthrop''s grave?
9578Is not your sail the banner Which God hath blest anew, The mantle that De Matha wore, The red, the white, the blue?
9578Not as we hoped; but what are we?
9578OLOR ISCANUS queries:"Why should we Vex at the land''s ridiculous miserie?"
9578Shall we alone Be left to add our gain to gain, When over Armageddon''s plain The trump is blown?
9578The flesh may fail, the heart may faint, But who are we to make complaint, Or dare to plead, in times like these, The weakness of our love of ease?
9578The hope of all who suffer, The dread of all who wrong, She drifts in darkness and in storm, How long, O Lord I how long?
9578They break the links of Union: shall we light The fires of hell to weld anew the chain On that red anvil where each blow is pain?
9578What breaks the oath Of the men o''the South?
9578What fear we?
9578What gives the wheat- field blades of steel?
9578What mean the gladness of the plain, This joy of eve and morn, The mirth that shakes the beard of grain And yellow locks of corn?
9578What oaths confirm your broken faith?
9578What points the rebel cannon?
9578What righteous cause can suffer harm If He its part has taken?
9578What sets the roaring rabble''s heel On the old star- spangled pennon?
9578What tears wash out the stain of death?
9578What though the cast- out spirit tear The nation in his going?
9578Whate''er the loss, Whate''er the cross, Shall they complain Of present pain Who trust in God''s hereafter?
9578When shall the hopeless quarrel cease?
9578When was ever His right hand Over any time or land Stretched as now beneath the sun?
9578Who Stands guiltless forth?
9578Who murmurs that in these dark days His lot is cast?
9578Why ask for ease where all is pain?
9578Why take we up the accursed thing again?

56671Did you''ns ever drop sech a thing as a spy- glass?
56671Do you hear that?
56671Do you think I am going to trust my men on that rotten structure?
56671For God''s sake, have you brought us food?
56671How did you- all ever git here?
56671How is this?
56671If we take the mountain- top from the deep gorge up, at what price would you value it?
56671Is Elder Long to home?
56671Is that you, Philip?
56671Say, strangers,he continued, dropping his voice,"tell me true; did you''ns ever view the harnt up yonder?"
56671That''s all settled,said Bromley, resignedly;"but how about the cow?
56671We hain''t viewed that kind o''money for seven years in these parts, have we, Tom?
56671We''re plumb friendly,he said,"and mighty glad we brought along the bread, ai n''t we, Tom?
56671Well, what''s the odds?
56671Well,said Coleman,"what are you going to do with that?
56671What country?
56671What do you think will be our fate at the hands of these people, when we are found in possession of such books as we have been reading? 56671 What does that mean?"
56671What fur ye want''o know?

56671What of that?
56671What yer talkin''''bout?
56671When nature prompts a hen to cackle, do you think we are expected to look the other way? 56671 When the salt was gone you thought you''d never enjoy another meal, did n''t you?--and how is it now?
56671Where''s the other one at?
56671Why not ask the guide to tell us?
56671Why not,''Liz''beth? 56671 You''ll come an''spell me, will ye,''Liz''beth?

56671Did she come here in a balloon?"
56671Do n''t we spread corn on the snow in the winter for the coons and squirrels?
56671Do n''t you see the point?
56671Drop it over into the Cove?"
56671Hay, Larkin, son--''50, wa''n''t hit?"
56671Hay, Larkin, son?
56671Hay, Larkin, son?
56671Hit certainly takes women folks to git the rights o''things, do n''t hit, Tom?
56671How did they come there?
56671How do you get around that?"
56671Is not that so?"
56671Know enough to hold yer tongue, do n''t ye''?
56671Now would he?"
56671Otherwise, why should he have adopted so crafty a method of hiding it from Josiah?
56671SEE?
56671Say, where''s your fryin''-pan at?
56671See?
56671See?
56671Should he wait there to meet certain death in the avalanche to- morrow or the nest day?
56671Tom, who do you reckon owns this mounting?"
56671Wants to buy these yer rocks, does he?
56671Was it still loved in the land and respected on the sea?
56671Was there still in existence a starry flag bearing any semblance to this one which was now floating over the mountain?
56671What dead commander, if not General Sherman?
56671What do you think, Fred?"
56671What if they had accepted it as a miracle altogether, and avoided the place accordingly?
56671What war office?
56671What would the old army do without its brilliant leader?
56671Where be ye, anyway?
56671Where were the others?
56671Why did no one come to their relief?
56671Why not?"
56671Would he succeed the better for the very want of this quality with which the All- wise has armed animal life for its protection?
56671_ How''ll ye do hit,''Manuel_?
56671drowned on the morning of September 4?
46347''Did I do right?'' 46347 But not merely as a common sailor, I suppose?"
46347But what makes the neap tides?
46347Do you believe in the Perseverance of the Saints?
46347Do you really think so?
46347Fear?
46347Have a cigar, Admiral?
46347Have we not too long deluded ourselves with the idea that mild and conciliatory measures would influence them to return to their allegiance? 46347 He seemed depressed beyond measure, as he asked, slowly, and with great emphasis,''What_ is_ the North about?
46347Henry, what do you think of when you hear a bell tolling like that?
46347How many troops,asked the Secretary of War,"do you require in your department?"
46347How old is he?
46347I read them all through,he said quaintly,"and then I said to myself, Well, Abraham Lincoln, are you a man, or are you a dog?"
46347Is that so?
46347Let us see,says the Doctor,"Henry, how old are you?"
46347My life is story enough,once said a person of this peculiar temperament,"what should I want to read stories for?"
46347Now brother G----, you want my horse for a day? 46347 Practice them?"
46347What do you think of it?
46347What is that?
46347What makes you think so?
46347What sort of a style_ am_ I forming?
46347Where do you dine?
46347Why not let_ us_ make them a little more conventional, and file them to a classical pattern?
46347Why, my son,exclaimed his father,"where are the men?"
46347''Canst thou draw out the leviathan, Slavery, with a hook?
46347''Tis true, my footsteps are confined-- I can not range beyond this cell; But what can circumscribe my mind?
46347''Who''s Massa Sam?''
46347''Who''s dead, Aunty?''
46347*****"I am aware that many object to the severity of my language; but is there not cause for severity?
46347A Methodist brother once said to him,"Well now, really, Brother Beecher, what have you against Methodist doctrines?"
46347Absorbed in a thousand trifles, how will the nation all at once come to a stand?
46347And did not the most respectable citizens cry, Well done?
46347And the question returns, WAS IT RIGHT_ to vote for an unjust and cowardly war, with falsehood, for slavery_?"
46347And who but God is to be glorified?
46347And why?
46347Answer him?
46347Besides, what am I-- what is any man among the living or among the dead, compared with the Question before us?
46347But''I am struck,''is passive, because if you are struck you do n''t do any thing do you?"
46347Call him out and fight him?
46347Canst thou put a hook into his nose?
46347Chase, who was feeling very disagreeably, inquired with surprise what he was congratulated for?
46347Could he be bought, bribed, cajoled, flattered, terrified?
46347Do they know our condition?''
46347Do you wish to become like one of those violent and blood- thirsty men who are seeking my life?
46347Does not the constitution form a union with slaveholders?
46347Does not the event show they judged rightly?
46347Does success gild crime into patriotism and the want of it change heroic self- devotion into imprudence?
46347Douglas, What course can I make them take?
46347Douglas, What_ can_ I do?
46347For what are outward prosperities compared with these interior intimacies of God?
46347Had he not spoken the truth?
46347Had not Garrison been dragged by a halter round his neck through the streets of Boston?
46347Has any lady in the United States felt herself aggrieved that she was not honored with the company of Miss Dinah or Miss Chloe, on board these cars?"
46347Has it not express compromises designed to protect slave property?
46347Have you ever thought?"
46347He asks:"Why should there not be a patient confidence in the ultimate justice of the people?
46347He put himself into the Massachusetts army and could say as Paul said of the churches:"who is weak, and I am not weak?
46347How are the laws relating to it executed in this city?
46347How could they?
46347How did they do this?"
46347How many mothers would often visit their children by such an effort?
46347How then could they avoid the inference that they could have no union with slaveholders?
46347How would the intimation have been received that Warren and his successors should have waited a better time?''
46347In our present differences, is either party without faith of being in the right?
46347Is it in something that helps, or something that harms, the community?''"
46347Is not the basis of representation throughout all the southern states made on three- fifths of a slave population?
46347Is the assertion of such freedom before the age?
46347Is there any better or equal hope in the world?
46347Lincoln had trained himself always to ask, What is it right to do?
46347Lincoln, to enquire What course_ ought_ they to take?
46347Not one of them has returned; where_ are_ the troops?''
46347Not quite sure that she meant the President, I spoke again:''Who''s Massa Sam, Aunty?''
46347Now Mr. Garrison, what do you say to that?
46347Of what value or utility are the principles of peace and forgiveness, if we may repudiate them in the hour of peril and suffering?
46347People met with the salutation,"How are ye, stranger?"
46347Phillips?"
46347Shall not one be cast down at the sight of him?
46347Shall we give blow for blow, and array sword against sword?
46347So much before the age as to leave no one a right to make it because it displeases the community?
46347Still more sharply and strongly he stated the question in the last debate, at Alton, as simply this: Is Slavery wrong?
46347The President thought a moment and then said,''Did you consult the Secretary of War, Major?''
46347The inquiry began to grow more urgent: Who is to be our General?
46347The man who keeps back the hire of his laborers by fraud-- what is he?
46347The man who makes a chattel of his brother-- what is he?
46347They have appealed to the arbitrament of the sword; why should we hesitate to use the sword, and press the cause to a decision?
46347They who compel three millions of men and women to herd together, like brute beasts-- what are they?
46347They who prohibit the circulation of the Bible-- what are they?
46347They who sell mothers by the pound, and children in lots to suit purchasers-- what are they?
46347True, he had never studied surveying, but what of that?
46347Was Hampden imprudent when he drew the sword and threw away the scabbard?
46347Was ever thirty years productive of a greater moral change than this 1st of January, 1864, witnessed?
46347Was it not absolute social and political death to any young man to fall into those ranks?
46347We had faith that some man was to arise; but where was he?
46347What chance was there for laws or for public sentiment, or any other humanizing influence, to restrain absolute power in a district so governed?
46347What could be expected if they_ would_ continue discussions which made our brethren across the river so uncomfortable?
46347What judge who had any hopes of the presidency, or the Supreme Bench, would dare offend his southern masters by any other?
46347What shall we do then?
46347What was to be done with this man?
46347What were their methods of statement?
46347Where is the man who counselled the North to conquer their prejudices?
46347Where is the man who raised a laugh in popular assemblies at the expense of those who believed the law of God to be higher than the law of men?
46347Which, or all?
46347Who can say of what ages of mournful praying and beseeching, what uplifting of poor, dumb hands that hour was the outcome?
46347Who can say that the President did not lay down his life by the firmness of his devotion to a great duty?
46347Who invented this libel on his country?
46347Who was he that bid him forbear?
46347Why?
46347Will he make many supplications unto thee?
46347You can say_ a man_--but you ca n''t say_ a men_, can you?"
46347You want to get into the navy?"
46347or bore his jaw through with a thorn?
46347or his tongue with a cord which thou lettest down?
46347said the young gentleman quite innocently;"Fear?
46347who ever heard of such a proceeding?
46347who is offended, and I burn not?"
46347wilt thou take him for a servant forever?
34754''Can you aid me?"
34754''Which side?"
34754''Who are you?"
34754''Whose house is this?"
34754''You are a royalist?"
34754''And who is your master?'' 34754 ''And who''s_ me_?''
34754''And you Olinska; you have disregarded our wishes, and thrown the gallant admiral overboard?'' 34754 ''Are you then so insensible to----''"''Will you give me five thousand doblas for her?''
34754''Brother Dominique, are you mad?'' 34754 ''Brother Dominique, if your soul is burthened with crimes, why not confess to the superior who is our father confessor?''
34754''But where is the mistress, of whom you boasted a short time since?'' 34754 ''But you have them not?''
34754''Can you do it soon?'' 34754 ''Dear Bobadil, you would not kill me?''
34754''Did you sue for them like a man?'' 34754 ''Do I dream?''
34754''Do n''t you hear it yell?'' 34754 ''Do you understand my object, Mynheer Hermann?''
34754''Does such a fate please you, Zara?'' 34754 ''Fair lady,''said he,''can it indeed be true that your charms are destined to wither in the Sultan''s harem?''
34754''Father,''he said, laying one hand on each of my shoulders, and staring fixedly in my face,''Will you hear me confess?'' 34754 ''Has some fair sonora smiled upon you?''
34754''Has your ladyship combined with my enemies to make a madman of me?'' 34754 ''Has_ she_ betrayed me?''
34754''Have my actions been those of an enemy?'' 34754 ''Have you seen the cantankerous spot where we fit?''
34754''Help me?'' 34754 ''Her ward Olinska?''
34754''His name? 34754 ''How do I know that?''
34754''How in heaven''s name do you know this? 34754 ''How much gold do you want for the girl?''
34754''I am happy to have been of service to a brave man,''replied Garstoff,''but who were those scoundrels?'' 34754 ''Is not your name Garstoff?''
34754''Is that your death warrant?'' 34754 ''Is this a moment for merriment?''
34754''May I know the name of my new friend?'' 34754 ''Must I kill you, too?''
34754''Shall I engage the conveyance?'' 34754 ''She is the Countess Walewski?''
34754''That is true, follower of Isauri--_you go not hence alive!_''''What mean you, woman?''
34754''What animal have you in your litter that you keep it closed like a cage?'' 34754 ''What can this mean?''

34754''What say you to this charge?'' 34754 ''What sum would do it?''
34754''What would you do for me?'' 34754 ''What''s all this?''
34754''Who are you?'' 34754 ''Who wrote this?''
34754''Who''s that?'' 34754 ''Whose steps are those?''
34754''Why did she not tax me with my perfidy? 34754 ''Why do you not_ buy me_, then?''
34754''Why!--what-- who has done this?'' 34754 ''Wilhelm, you are not trifling with me?''
34754''Will you hear a tale of crime from a criminal?'' 34754 ''You were, doubtless, surprised to find me here?''
34754''Zara, tell me, for heaven''s sake, have you listened to the Sultan''s words of love? 34754 And do you mean to tell me that it was in_ my_ house he was secreted?"
34754And how is this, my little chit?
34754And how is this?

34754See here, my patriotic invalid,says I, skeptically,"how do you come to be exempt?"
34754See here, my self- denying Brutus,says I, as we took Richmond together at the bar,"who commissioned you to pledge so much as all that?"

34754And by whom the Land''s great debt was paid To the Soldier old, in the graves they made?

34754And what is the reason?
34754And where is Don Bobadil?''
34754And yet, would you believe it, my boy?
34754Are not both the fruits of original sin?
34754Are not the walks wide enough for both of us, that you must needs knock a man''s breath out of his body in this way?

34754Are you willing to yield your bride to the army, and let the navy remain a bachelor?''
34754Are you, are you-- his-- slave?''
34754BY MARTIN FARQUHAR TUP----R. I hold it good-- as who shall hold it bad?
34754Because he refuses to join in their low revels, should they regard him as a ghost- seer?
34754Because you and your neighbors chance to buy a barrel of bad eggs, are you satisfied that good ones are not to be had?
34754Because, by his skill in woodcraft, he surpasses their success, should they shun him with looks of horror?
34754But how is it that her father will allow her to we d a Catholic?''
34754But suppose it should prove lower than his?
34754But what possessed you to run away with this little rebel, man?
34754But why should we make such a distinction between these two qualities?
34754Can I have fifty?

34754Did he say that our idolized Commander was a dead- beat?"
34754Did this prove that Man''s love is weaker and shorter- lived than Woman''s?
34754Did you ever notice how you always keep your eyes shut when you are asleep?
34754Did you not know that she was affianced to Admiral Praxin?''
34754Do ye ask who reared those headstones there, And crowned with thorns a sire''s gray hair?

34754I looked up at Smith- Brown, my boy, and says I:"What does he mean by the''State of Charleston,''my fat friend?"
34754I should think the people would grumble about it-- don''t they?''

34754Might you not find a devil in me?
34754My name is Orloff, and I wish you to answer one inquiry: Does the ward of the Countess Walewski have an interview with Admiral Praxin to- day?''
34754My pastor would say to me:''These men- slaves are black, you say; but have they not the same feelings with you, the same features-- only handsomer?''
34754Need I say that our victorious general is the man?"
34754Nothing has happened, I hope?''
34754Now really do n''t you think the Emperor or Czar should pay more attention to lighting the streets?
34754Now, if modesty, as well as curiosity, was the result of Satanic temptation, why should one be called a weakness and the other a virtue?
34754Oh, my Juleyer, how long is this to continue?
34754Perhaps you will inform the court how such a strange phenomenon_ could_ occur?"
34754Prove that her Modesty and Love are anything but heavenly, and what remains to make Woman angelic?
34754Samyule gave such a start that he split one of his boots, and says he:"_ Which_ line?"
34754Seeing me put my hand in my pocket, he said, tearful:"Tellum me, I conjure ye, are there any such things as quarters in the round world?
34754Seward?"
34754Shall it be said that twenty- two millions of people can not put down eight millions without injuring those eight millions?
34754Shall it be said, after this, that republics are ungrateful?
34754Shall the watching world behold thee falling from thy starry height?
34754Shall we presume to talk of drafting, my boy, when there is such readiness on the part of the people to lead the troops?
34754Soon after hearing of this, I met him at Willard''s, and says I:"Well, my sagacious Mirabeau, what is your final opinion of our Honest Abe?"
34754Speak boldly, as becomes a man; would you we d the daughter of_ Hermann, the Demented_?''
34754Stuart?"
34754Supposing Mr. Bull should die, the question might arise: Will he be wanted down below, or wafted to the skies?
34754The Honest Abe cracked a walnut, and says he:"You say, neighbor, that the organization still insists upon a vigorous prosecution of the war?"
34754The creatures which is trying to break up this here beneficent Government, ask us what we are fighting for, then?
34754The latter approached the wounded man and kindly asked;"Can I do anything for you, old fellow?"
34754The next day the breastpin- chap called at his Louvre again, and says to him:"Have you taken Sary''s portrait?"
34754The respectable chap stared at him aghast, and says he:"Did you tell them to have faith?"
34754The sturdy trooper straight repeated,"When all the village cheers us on, That you, in tears, apart are seated?
34754The veteran Mackerel sighed deeply, as he spread open the package to full view, my boy, and says he, respectfully:"Are you a married man, my cove?"
34754Then picking up the bit of shrapnell, and laying it upon his heart, he kicked once, and says he:"Is it almost morning, mother?
34754Then why should the white man turn the yoke altogether over to the black man?
34754Then, turning to the keeper,--"How long is my imprisonment in this terrible place to be continued?"
34754There ca n''t be no tacks way out in the middle of the floor here, can they?''
34754This street should be better lighted, and yet if it had been, I should never have known you-- don''t you think so?
34754Up sprang the general, in a violent perspiration, and says he:"Where''s my horse gone to?"
34754Villiam assumed a thoughtful demeanor, and says he:"Is it a miss fire?"
34754Was it a dream?
34754Was it not?
34754Was there the tiniest, wee- ist, smallest fragment of sarcasm in his speech?
34754Was this a case of purely disinterested philanthropy?
34754Was this a proof the depth and vitality of Woman''s love?
34754Were those devoted men about to change their base of operations and entrap Stonewall Jackson''s whole force again, without waiting to receive a shot?
34754What ails our gymnastic friend?"
34754What are yes doin''with lights this time ernight?
34754What can such people know about Love?
34754What did his visitor mean by accusing him of not making his appearance at the appointed time?
34754What made you put off the end of the show till next spring?''
34754What shall I do?''
34754What was it?
34754What was that to me?
34754What wonder, when our former pal, A vulgar, sneakin''knave is, They hang our pictures in a row With Floyd, and Cobb, and Davis?
34754What would you have, monsieur?"
34754When I thought it was a quarter past Twelve and fled the residence, it was really a quarter_ of_ Twelve-- don''t you see?
34754When will you fly with me?''
34754Where is she?
34754Where is your father, mademoiselle?"
34754Who are you?''
34754Who could tell what was working in the mind of each?
34754Who should draw the line between those men, when all was dark for the white and a luckless wight was the black?
34754Why ca n''t you leave out some of those absurd advertisements, and publish an article telling Mr. Lincoln that the war is ruining society?
34754Why can not these turbulent denouncers of each other be like me, who recognize no division of party in this national crisis?
34754Why did not her angel soul arise in its innocent love, to crush me with the glancing of an eye?
34754Why does not the Mackerel Brigade advance?
34754Why is she not here to meet me?''
34754Why should I be treated thus?
34754Why should I love a being whose lips have declared my father a demon?
34754Why should we need more light, sirrah, when the moon is shining brightly?
34754Will you not grant me that favor?''
34754Will you swear to this?"
34754Will you, bub, will you?"
34754Would you repay me by robbing me of my richest treasure, or forever blighting her existence by arousing in her bosom a hopeless passion?
34754Ye mind the hot place down below?
34754You are loved by the lady?''
34754You do n''t see exactly how this is to be done, eh?
34754You may ask me, my boy, with which side rested the victory in this remarkable movement?
34754You think that young man there is sleeping upon a rude couch?
34754You will not betray me?''
34754You wo n''t be angry with me for it, will you, dear BOB?
34754You''ll be kind to him, bub, wo n''t you?"
34754_ Bismillah!_ dare you laugh at our beards?
34754asked EVE, in some haste;"were you not arrested at a quarter of Twelve?"
34754continued Wilhelm, with enthusiasm--''yet why should infancy monopolize all the richest pleasures of life?
34754dare you insult me?''
34754he blubbered,''miserable wretch, that I am, what shall I do?
34754he exclaimed, kissing her p. 276: are you-- his-- slave?''
34754he gruffly said, A moment pausing to regard her;--"Why weepest thou, my little chit?"
34754p. 168: of the skillful retrogade[retrograde] advance to which i p. 169: beheld the idolized genral[general] of the mackerel brigade p. 172: child?"
34754said he, in a suppressed manner,"what are you doing here?"
34754says Samyule, ponderingly,"what is this sight mine eyes behold?"
34754says Villiam, with dignity;"do you discover a flaw in the great chain woven by the United States of America around the doomed Confederacy?"
34754says Villiam,"is the Confederacy again advancing upon the United States of America?"
34754says Villiam,"which way was the conqueror''s face turned at the time?"
34754says he,"or is it but a quarter of the mind?"
34754says the general, winking very violently in the sunlight, and rattling his sword in a fearless manner,"where''s my cap gone to?"
34754says the patriotic chap to him;"how does the canvas proceed?"
34754says the young staff- chap, eagerly--"is it the sticky we d kind, Fwed?"
34754she exclaimed, reproachfully,"what are you doing here, you ridiculous thing?"
34754shouted BOB, ceasing his Terpsichoreanism for a moment;"do n''t you see the joke?
34754shouted Colonel Wobert Wobinson, breaking through the group.--"Could you make it convenient to pay me that dollar you owe me, Samyule?"
34754what is the matter, Don Bobadil?''
34754what''s this noise about?
34754what''s this?"
34754who has rifled my chest?
34754wretch that I was-- why did I not fall a withered corpse at the feet of that innocent girl, who sacrificed a father''s love for me?
34754you will ask; did nothing come after the Brigade itself?
44132''What difference does that make to a lawyer?'' 44132 ''What for?''
44132And what are you doing here?
44132And what is_ your_ name?
44132And with twenty armed men can not I pull down the walls of the citadel of Slavery? 44132 Are all the Eastern boys of your age in the army?"
44132Are you never afraid?
44132Are you really going to shoot rebels?
44132Are you sure you can keep still when you ought to keep still? 44132 Can I borrow him of General Grant?"
44132Can he jump?
44132Chile, you hear me? 44132 Did he say anything?"
44132Did n''t you live in Jonesboro'', Tennessee, before the war?
44132Did you know him?
44132Do you know this man?
44132Do you know who that man was?
44132Ever do anything else in the South?
44132Ever live anywhere else in the South?
44132For what kind of a looking man?
44132Has n''t anybody told you that?
44132How are you going to live on the journey?
44132How do you know?
44132How long?
44132How''s that?
44132Howdy, Massa Izzard?

44132In the school of the world? 44132 Is I intrudin''on you?"
44132Is he dead?
44132Is it a signal to you?
44132Is this man he?
44132Is you- uns hurt?
44132Jump, is it?
44132Like? 44132 Oh, Mr. President, I''m only a boy, but ca n''t I do something for my country, right now?
44132Please, ma''am, may I have a drink of milk?
44132Son,he said,"I suppose you borrowed that uniform somewhere, did n''t you?
44132That horse of yours is Bob, is n''t it?
44132Was the man pale? 44132 Whar be you goin''?"
44132Whar''s yer passengers?
44132What are you doing here?
44132What did you do before you turned guerilla?
44132What does Stanton say?
44132What does this mean?
44132What is she like?
44132What is that, sir?
44132What is your name?
44132What shall I do?
44132What was that?
44132What wuz you sayin''to Bub, thar?
44132What''s up?
44132When were you commissioned?
44132Where are they?
44132Where are we?
44132Where did you come from?
44132Where were you captured?
44132Who are ye? 44132 Who is he?"
44132Who is this?
44132Who kept the general store there?
44132Who wrote you from Russia?
44132Why did Lee escape?
44132Why do n''t you take young Strong with you, General?
44132Why not let him come to school in Washington?
44132Why, granma,pleaded Sairey from where she had taken refuge behind her grandmother''s chair,"what''s the use?"
44132Yes?
44132You little fool, do n''t you know better than that?
44132You plum fool,shouted the brakeman, after much stronger expressions,"did n''t ye see the flag fur section three?"
44132Your rank?
44132***** It was at about this time that John Hay once asked Tom:"What do you think of the Tycoon by this time, my boy?"
44132After this impressive speech, he suddenly yelled:"Ah, you would, would you?"
44132And how about Tom here?"
44132And if there was a chance of success for the boy, why not for the man?
44132And what are ye doin''here?"
44132Are you a true man or not?
44132Are you getting on all right?
44132As they gathered about him, the Captain asked:"Do you know this man, Captain Strong?"
44132But where could they hide in a one- roomed hut?
44132But where was Tom Strong?
44132Ca n''t I stay here?
44132Ca n''t we look out of the windows?"
44132Can you give me another boat?"
44132Come to see me tomorrow morning, will you?"
44132Could he do anything?
44132Did he have long black hair?"
44132Do you chew tobacco?"
44132Do you know the reason?"
44132Do you mean to steal our horses?"
44132Ever hear the story of what Jonah said to the whale when he got out of him?
44132Father will let me, wo n''t you, Father?"
44132For she peered at them suspiciously, and said:"How duz I know you uns ai n''t Yankees?
44132Give me a boost, will ye?"
44132Had he been weighed and found wanting?
44132Has dat fool nigger runned away?"
44132Have you any political influence behind you?"
44132Have you had any experience?"
44132He grabbed the man by the shoulder and awoke most of the travelers, but not Tom, with a stentorian shout:"What are you doing, you scoundrel?"
44132He saw the three and rode furiously at them, calling out:"What are you niggers doin''here?"
44132He went on to say that many of the privates in the Confederate cavalry and artillery owned their own horses; could they retain them?
44132Hear this:"''An''why should we kick up a muss About the Pres''dent''s proclamation?
44132Here I be?
44132His lip curled with disgust as he said:"Are you-- a boy-- drunk?"
44132How could one of these be reached, if their fellow on the sandbank joined them?
44132How cum so as you- uns is here, a- hidin''?
44132How kin I help you?"
44132How''ll we- uns git to sho''''n hide?"
44132Howdy, Morris?
44132Howdy, sonny?"
44132I''ll bring you eatins soon ez night comes, but what''ll you do then?"
44132If he could not escape in a boat fashioned by man''s hands, why not in one fashioned by God?
44132If it was hell in Sherman''s time, what word can describe the horror of it in our day?
44132Is it?"
44132Is you dun run away?"
44132It kept calling aloud"Coo, boss, coo, boss,"while every now and then it said in lower tones:"Is you Yanks hyar?
44132Jenkins?"
44132Just before they had pushed off, Tom had asked:"What is this boat worth, Morris?"
44132Kin you get away today?"
44132Lincoln?"
44132Might not the American example infect Alaska, spread through Siberia, even creep to the steps of the throne at St. Petersburg?
44132Once, when he thought he was alone, John Hay heard him call out"with irrepressible anguish":"Why do n''t they come?
44132President?"
44132Sheridan turned sharply to Tom, asking:"Can you ride?"
44132Should they tell her where they were going?
44132Six days before, Lincoln had said to the boy:"Tom, would you like to see some more fighting?"
44132Suddenly the old woman said to him:"Where wuz you born, bub?"
44132Suddenly the overseer asked:"Have you seen anything of Mr. Pinckney''s Morris, Mose?"
44132Their leader, Stevens, asked:"Have n''t you a pistol Lafayette gave George Washington and a sword Frederick the Great sent him?"
44132There were two roll- calls every day, at 9 A.M. and 4 P.M. How were the two absent men to answer?
44132This your boy?
44132To which should he go?
44132Was he not on his way to freedom?
44132Was the great democratic experiment of the world about to end in failure?
44132Whar''s he''n the rest of''em?"
44132What d''ye say''bout our trying it on, son?"
44132What is it?"
44132What is one boy''s life to that of our country?
44132What news did they bring?
44132What to do?
44132What was coming now?
44132What was the Confederate spy doing here?
44132What was this unknown man out of the West going to do?
44132What were they to do?
44132What you goin''to do with me, General?"
44132What''s a boy''s life to winning the war?
44132What''s the good of asking such questions?"
44132What''s you doin''?"
44132When the air was full of victory, what did an empty stomach matter?
44132Who are you?"
44132Who be you?"
44132Who were these three dripping ragamuffins?
44132Who were these three farmers who seemed to be playing bandits upon the peaceful highroad?
44132Whose death did he seek to compass now?
44132Why are n''t you with your regiment?"
44132Why do n''t they come?"
44132Why was he not given more work to do?
44132Will you do it?"
44132Will you join me or not?
44132Will you take Mrs. Strong with you?"
44132Will you- uns light down''n cum in?"
44132Would the President think of him as a truant, who had run away and stayed away from duty?
44132Would there be civil war?
44132Would you like to go with me?"
44132You ai n''t a- goin''to hurt dat boy Strong, is you?
44132[ Illustration: JOHN BROWN]"Did not Joshua bring down the walls of Jericho with a ram''s horn?"
44132snarled the man,"whether I hurt him or not?
19999''How long a time will be granted us to consider?'' 19999 ''M I goung upthlarer, or am I goung downth larer?"
19999''What terms will be granted us?'' 19999 ''Zis wachecall drung?"
19999A first- rate one?

19999Am I killed?
19999And Jack?
19999And do n''t you?
19999And get the lasting ill- will of the boys?
19999And he knows that I lost it?
19999And how many of you are drunk?
19999And nobody caring for him?
19999And was it really a turkey?
19999And what are you going to do about it?
19999And what did you do?
19999And what if you will not?
19999And what should a young fellow like you want to see an ugly, battered, miserable old hulk like me, for?
19999And why did n''t you run?
19999And why should it be? 19999 And you give your consent?"
19999And you have been just a little discouraged over your first lesson? 19999 Are they going to keep us standing here all day?"
19999Are you any relation to Mrs. Manly, of----?
19999Are you attached to any company?
19999Are you awake, my darling?
19999Are you hit, Abe?
19999Are you hurt?
19999Are you in earnest?
19999Are you sure, Gray?
19999At one time? 19999 Because we are off in the morning, you know, and I could n''t find you to- day; and----""And what, my lad?"
19999Boys, it''s for me, is n''t it?
19999Busy?
19999But before we proceed,said Frank,"may I just say what I was going to?"
19999But how can you?
19999But how is he? 19999 But it seems meant for you-- don''t it?"
19999But ought a man to do so, because he has been once or twice deceived? 19999 But why did n''t you want me to know you gave the watch?"
19999But you know his pen was robbed?
19999But you must have had friends?
19999Ca n''t you untie them iron knots with your teeth, Jack?
19999Ca n''t, eh?
19999Can ye walk?
19999Can you tell me any thing?
19999Decoyed him?
19999Did he really mean it for me, after all my bad treatment of him?
19999Did he send it to me?
19999Did n''t you ever see turpentine boxes before?
19999Did this person with you do any of the mischief?
19999Did ye see him, and Frank, and Seth Tucket, reading their Testaments?
19999Did ye though? 19999 Did you know a mail came on board to- day?"
19999Did you not know that there was a design to rob his poultry pen?
19999Did you see?
19999Did you think I did n''t know? 19999 Did you, Jack?"
19999Do you know my mother, sir?
19999Do you know who set that fire?
19999Do you understand what we are here for?
19999Do you want me to report you as insubordinate?
19999Does he belong to you, ma''am?
19999Eh, and why not?
19999Ellis is; ai n''t you, Ellis?
19999For what?
19999Frank, do you hear me?
19999Fun, ai n''t it?
19999Give me a chance there-- can''t you?
19999Go where, you little witch?
19999Got friends in the hospital, hev ye?
19999Got the colic, Jack?
19999Habits? 19999 Had you heard one?"
19999Happy?
19999Hated you?
19999Hattie?
19999Have you a pencil?
19999Have you been meddling with Captain----''s bed and cutting his tent down?
19999He says,--"according to his account,"--who was it sending home such stories about him?
19999He? 19999 Here, who is walking on my feet?"
19999Holes? 19999 How about those turkeys?"
19999How came you to read there?
19999How can that be?
19999How can you be asleep, Ned, when we''re all going to the bottom?
19999How can you be joking, such a time as this?
19999How do you know I''ve got a revolver?
19999How do you know he is yours?
19999How do you like the back to your chair?
19999How far did you go?
19999How far is it to Washington?
19999How happens it, then, that only you two are caught?
19999How happens that? 19999 How long has it been raining?
19999How many of you fellows are hid around in these trees?
19999How should I know? 19999 I want to know, then, if you think I will make a drummer?"
19999In confederate shinplasters?
19999In she worse?
19999Is he killed?
19999Is he living? 19999 Is he?
19999Is it my boy?
19999Is it possible?
19999Is it something for me? 19999 Is it yours?"
19999Is it? 19999 Is she?
19999Is that your favorite way of fighting?
19999It is true, then?
19999Jack who?
19999Jack,said he, with friendly intent,"why do n''t you go back and wipe out this disgrace?
19999Leave the Blues?
19999May I take the gun and go on and shoot him?
19999My better half?
19999My comrade?
19999None of what?
19999O my son,said Mrs. Manly, regarding him with affectionate earnestness,"do you know what you say?
19999O, Atwater,said Frank, clutching his hand,"what does it mean?
19999O, ai n''t it fun?
19999O, he will never forgive me now; and who can blame him? 19999 O, is n''t it a beauty?"
19999Old Buckley? 19999 Old Sinjin?
19999Ought we not to give the alarm?
19999Please, sir, will you let me leave them here?
19999Since he has had two shots at me, why should n''t I have as much as one at him?
19999So you have been really gambling-- have you?
19999So, you are a drummer boy-- are you?
19999That you, Helen?
19999The boys gave you some drink? 19999 Then how shall I ever get it?"
19999Was it you I fired at?
19999Well,said Jack, nervously,"who likes to stand still and be shot at?"
19999Were you-- awake?
19999Whads mare?
19999What are holes cut in the pine trees for,--foot- holds for climbing?
19999What are they doing with Jack?
19999What are you here for?
19999What are you making that noise for?
19999What are you out of your tent for?
19999What are you reading, Atwater?
19999What are you there after?
19999What are you thinking about, my bold soldier boy?
19999What boys?
19999What can you do?
19999What do I care for somebody else? 19999 What do they care for me?"
19999What do we go so slow for? 19999 What do ye do for a watch- pocket, Frank?
19999What do ye say?
19999What do you do, Frank?
19999What do you mean by his claiming you?
19999What do you see?
19999What do you want of my rifle?
19999What does it all mean?
19999What does it mean?
19999What fun?
19999What has taken Mr. Sinjin away?
19999What in time are you about?
19999What is it to me that the man is a secessionist? 19999 What is it, Abe?"
19999What is it, Jack?
19999What is it?
19999What is it?
19999What is it?
19999What is it?
19999What is the capital of this state?
19999What is the cheering for?
19999What is your name?
19999What kind of bark was it? 19999 What made you let''em catch you?
19999What makes you dizzy?
19999What shall we do?
19999What turkeys?
19999What was he going to knock you down for? 19999 What was your motive in deceiving him?"
19999What water is this the town fronts on?
19999What''s all that?
19999What''s his name, Frank?
19999What''s it? 19999 What''s that saucy little tug around here for?"
19999What''s that, afire, away up the sound, close into the main land?
19999What''s that?
19999What''s the fun?
19999What''s the matter with him?
19999What''s the matter, Frank? 19999 What''s the matter, Frank?"
19999What''s the trouble, Manly?
19999What''s wanting?
19999What, George? 19999 What, Jack?"
19999When was you here, Gray?
19999When we come in sight of him,said Frank,"let me shoot him, wo n''t you?"
19999Where did you find that fellow?
19999Where is Manly?
19999Where is your Testament, my son?
19999Where''s Burnside?
19999Where''s my pipe? 19999 Where''s the last ditch?"
19999Where''s your master?
19999Which of the newspapers did you get that speech out of?
19999Which of them did the things your captain complains of?
19999Who claims this vehicle? 19999 Who could have sent it?
19999Who drank?
19999Who else?
19999Who gave him the whiskey?
19999Who is he? 19999 Who is my neighbor there?"
19999Who tapped the casks?
19999Who''d have thought a little dodger like that would upset him?
19999Who''s that?
19999Whose cart is this? 19999 Why did n''t you ever get married?"
19999Why did n''t you finish your sentence, Jack?
19999Why do n''t you obey orders?
19999Why do you ask that?
19999Why twice to you?
19999Why, Jack,said Frank,"what do you burn them for?
19999Why, what has he done to you?
19999Why, where did you ever see him, mother?
19999Will you be so good, sir, as to tell the drummer boy to step this way?
19999Will you show me how?
19999Ye think I''m going to stick here all day?
19999Yes; is n''t it grand? 19999 You did?"
19999You have heard from her?
19999You have? 19999 You mean dizzy?"
19999You mean to say you''d blow my brains out?
19999You see that house yonder? 19999 You think we shall have you all prisoners?"
19999You unstan me, Sef?
19999You''d rather do that than come and see the general?
19999Your mother says that?
19999Zhue, Sef?
19999_ Shot, by a secessionist, in the act of stealing turkeys._How would that sound, reported to his friends at home?
19999''Stranger what dost thou require?
19999''Who so base as would not help a woman?
19999( Is it you, Seth?)
19999( Is this what you call drunk?)
19999( Was he going up the ladder or was he going down the ladder?)
19999--Bang, bang, bang!--"Isn''t it grand?"
19999--awaking with amazing suddenness.--"That you, Frank?
19999--the captain put his arm kindly about him,--"haven''t I always told you I knew nothing about the watch?
19999A Yankee, ai n''t ye?"
19999A bad wound?"
19999And Frank?
19999And Tucket quotes,--"''O, where was Roderick then?
19999And do you know, Frank, I do n''t think I could say to you what I am going to, if you had n''t been in trouble yourself, lately?
19999And go with us?"
19999And how came all this rubbish heaped over me?"
19999And so he left the service?
19999And the other?
19999Are you certain they have been stolen?
19999Are you sure you have thought of it well?"
19999Are you, Atwater?"
19999At length he said:--"Have you got a brother in the confederate army?"
19999Atwater, did you see any body?"
19999Baby?
19999But is there need of my saying any thing?
19999But was he alone to blame?
19999But where was the old drummer?
19999But who would volunteer to help work the guns?
19999But who''ll go first to the house?"
19999But why did you not inform him, or me through him, who_ you_ were?
19999Can I do any thing for you?"
19999Did n''t you ever?"
19999Did n''t you know it?"
19999Did she send any message to me?"
19999Did you know it?"
19999Do n''t you know, boys, any of you?"
19999Do n''t you really care for any body?
19999Do n''t you see me?"
19999Do you know any thing about it, Frank?"
19999Do you know how these jokes, and the laughter that followed, sounded on the ear of Jack Winch?
19999Do you know, Frank?"
19999Do you say there are honest gamblers?
19999Does the sunshine, which was bright yesterday, look cold to- day?
19999Egglestone?"
19999Egglestone?"
19999Even if he had told the truth about Joe''s hand, ought Frank to have been influenced by it?
19999Frank or Seth?
19999Frank trembled with interest as he inquired,"What is his given name?"
19999Give me some of your holly, wo n''t you, Frank?"
19999Going at it again?
19999Have a drink, Frank?"
19999Have n''t you any friends?
19999Have you forgotten your promises to me?
19999Have you no sisters?"
19999He thought-- he hoped-- what?
19999He wanted me to go with him then; but I----""You what?"
19999Hear that?"
19999His sister so ill?
19999How are you, Manly?"
19999How can you have patience with that nonsense, Frank?
19999How could he give up a sport which surpassed everything else in the way of excitement?
19999How did you get off?"
19999How?"
19999If it meant any thing, was it not that his place was elsewhere than in the ambulance corps?
19999Is he-- is he alive?"
19999Is it life, or is it death?
19999Is that the way you get turpentine?"
19999John?"
19999Nobody?
19999Now, am I your teacher, or are you mine?"
19999O, my child, is it possible?
19999One was taken-- will the other be left?
19999Or shall we read a little together?"
19999S''pose I do n''t know?"
19999Say, Frank, ye could n''t think of throwin''in the key, too-- could ye?
19999Say, what''ll ye tax to make me one?
19999See that label,''COWARD,''on his back?
19999Shall I be candid with you, Frank?
19999So I said,''Then the one I heard in the woods, as I came along, is n''t yours-- is it?''"
19999So, s''posin''you carry the watch for me, and tell me what time it is when I ax ye?
19999Surely, sir, you have not forgotten the little girl you used to take on your knee and feed with candy?"
19999That he was intoxicated in his berth when the mail arrived?
19999That is being pretty sure-- isn''t it?"
19999That is reasonable,--isn''t it?"
19999That wo n''t be too much trouble-- will it?"
19999The proposition was acceded to; for what could Frank say against it?
19999Then it was all an illusion?
19999Then peering curiously under the bonnet of the young female,"Ai n''t you the gal that merried Atwater?"
19999There was no such noble diversion on deck to- day; and it was only too easy to set?
19999These violated, the career of ill begun, where would he end?
19999Was Jack Winch another of the sort?
19999Was it a ghost?
19999Was it an angel?
19999Was n''t it pretty?"
19999We are all liable to be wrong-- are we not?"
19999Were you aware, Frank, that it was Tucket, and not a turkey, in the bushes, when you took this man to the woods?"
19999What ailed the boy?
19999What answer could he make?
19999What are you here for at this time of night?"
19999What business have you to think?"
19999What can we do?
19999What could it be?
19999What did the old sinner have to say?"
19999What has become of them?"
19999What is it we see in that sculptured, placid face?
19999What is the paper?"
19999What reason, he demanded to know, had Gray for thinking thus?
19999What was the future that awaited him?
19999What was the reason, I wonder?
19999What with?"
19999What''s the use of a wreath, anyhow, after it''s made?
19999What, indeed?
19999What, then, could he hope to do?
19999Where all this time was the old drum- major?
19999Where had Frank seen that grim countenance, that short, stiff, iron- gray hair?
19999Where is he?
19999Where''s the driver of this cart?
19999Who do n''t know that?"
19999Who has been getting that boy drunk?"
19999Who is old Buckley?"
19999Who wants to become a tobacco- spitting, rum- drinking, filthy old man?"
19999Who was killed?
19999Who would fill his mother''s place when he was gone from her?
19999Who''s there?"
19999Why do n''t we hurry on?"
19999Why do you?"
19999Why had his companions thrust the most perilous part of the enterprise upon him, the youngest of the party?
19999Why then did they fail to meet him?
19999Why was it that the contents of Frank''s Christmas box did not taste so good to him as he had anticipated?
19999Why was it?
19999Will you?"
19999Would he ever again fold dear little Willie in his arms, and feel his dewy cheek against his own, as he did now?
19999Would he ever sleep in that nice warm bed again?
19999Ye wo n''t?
19999You believe in friendship, do you?"
19999You did n''t know we had a chaplain in our company-- did ye?
19999You do n''t know what?--Tucket,"said Captain Edney,"what''s all this?
19999You made me----""Made you what?"
19999a fragment of his drunken dreams?
19999a stone?
19999am I right?
19999and is life, before so full of hope, turned sour, and vapid, and bitter?
19999and is the sweet singing of birds suddenly become as a mockery to the ear?
19999and letters?"
19999and the faces of friends, late so pleasant to see, have they grown strange and reproachful?
19999and would be willing now to give up?"
19999and you give your consent?"
19999and you''ll forgive me if I hurt your feelings?"
19999any bad news?"
19999are you in trouble, Abe?"
19999but is n''t it funny?
19999cried Frank--"you hurt?"
19999did n''t you know, Jack, he was here with the Eighth Massachusetts, last April, when they saved Washington and the Union?"
19999did you see that shell burst?
19999do I know now why it was the dear old man thought so much of me?"
19999do you know him?
19999do you know?"
19999groaned Mr. Winch, in despair at this inconstancy,"when will you learn to be a little more steady- minded?
19999have you considered it well?"
19999he exclaimed, looking up eagerly for their sympathy,"where_ did_ it come from?
19999he exclaimed,"you here?
19999how are you?"
19999how could you?"
19999how goes it?
19999is it you?"
19999is it you?"
19999jeered his companion;"and do you fancy a little swallow of brandy is going to make my folks ashamed of me?"
19999not happier, now you''ve lost every thing, than when you was hevin''such luck at play?"
19999on business?"
19999said Captain Edney, severely;"what do you mean?"
19999said Ellis;"who taught you to halt before the word is given?"
19999said Frank, meaning to ask,"What is the matter?"
19999said Frank;"water?"
19999said Frank;"what''s the matter with you?"
19999said Seth Tucket, coming to his side,"that old Fortress Monroe''s a stunner-- ain''t she?
19999that you?"
19999what can we do, mother?"
19999what habits?"
19999what is it about him?"
19999what shall I tell mother?"
19999what sort of a beast have you got there?"
19999what''s the matter?"
19999where did you go to school?"
19999where is she?"
19999ye did n''t, though-- did ye?
463Ah, what yeh talkin''about? 463 Are we, sure''nough?
463Are yeh all right, Fleming? 463 As far as you could?
463Charge? 463 Charge?
463Charge?
463Cross there?
463D''yeh think so?
463Did n''t I tell yeh we''d come aroun''in behint''em? 463 Did you ever think you might run yourself, Jim?"
463Eh?
463Fill mine, will yeh?
463Goin''home now, boys?
463Going to be a battle, sure, is there, Jim?
463Good Lord, what''s th''matter with me?
463Hasbrouck? 463 Heard what?"
463How do you know you wo n''t run when the time comes?
463How do you think the reg''ment''ll do?
463I was allus a good friend t''yeh, wa''n''t I, Henry? 463 I wonner where he got''is stren''th from?
463Leave me be, ca n''t yeh? 463 Oh, here, now, boys, what''s th''use?"
463Run?
463Say, make way there, ca n''t yeh? 463 So?"
463Something tells me--"What?
463Sure-- will yeh, Henry?
463That you, Henry?
463The brigadier said he never saw a new reg''ment fight the way we fought yestirday, did n''t he? 463 Think any of the boys''ll run?"
463Think m''leg is made of iron? 463 Was it warm out there, sonny?"
463Was pretty good fight, wa''n''t it? 463 Was pretty good fight, wa''n''t it?"
463Was pretty good fight, wa''n''t it?
463We ARE mule drivers, are we?
463Well, Henry, ol''man, how do yeh feel this mornin''?
463Well, Henry,he said,"what d''yeh think th''chances are?
463Well, do n''t we fight like the devil? 463 Well, he was a jim- dandy, wa''n''t''e?"
463Well, that was n''t very far, was it?
463Well, then, what did they march us out here for?
463Well, what now, I wonder?
463Well, why do n''t they support us? 463 What reg''ment do yeh b''long teh?
463What th''thunder-- we-- skedaddlin''this way fer?
463What yeh comin''back fer?
463What yeh goin''t''sleep in? 463 What''s the matter, Henry?"
463What''s up, Jim?
463What? 463 What?
463What?
463What?
463What?
463What?
463What?
463What?
463Where in hell yeh goin''?
463Where th''hell yeh been?
463Where yeh been, Henry?
463Where yeh goin'', Jim? 463 Where yeh hit, ol''boy?"
463Where yeh hit?
463Who is it? 463 Who yeh talkin''to, Wilson?"
463Who yeh talkin''to? 463 Why did n''t yeh stay there?"
463Why, Jim,he said, in a dazed way,"what''s the matter with you?"
463Why, hello, Henry; is it you? 463 Why-- why, pardner, where yeh goin''?"
463Would I?
463Yeh infernal fool, do n''t yeh know enough t''quit when there ai n''t anything t''shoot at? 463 You ai n''t the bravest man in the world, are you?"
463''At th''head''a th''reg''ment?''
463''Who was th''lad what carried th''flag?''
463An''Jack, he never paid no attention, an''th''feller kept on a- peckin''at his elbow an''sayin'':''Say, where''s th''road t''th''river?''
463An''everybody yelled out to''i m: Hurt, John?
463An''it ai n''t much t''ask, is it?
463An''th''colonel, he ses:''Were they, indeed?
463And the loud soldier''s shrill voice could be heard:"What th''devil they in sich a hurry for?"
463And we did n''t do better than many another reg''ment, did we?
463And, furthermore, how could they kill him who was the chosen of gods and doomed to greatness?
463Are yeh hurt much?
463As he stood tottering before the rifle barrel, he called out:"Why, hello, Wilson, you-- you here?"
463At last he heard a cheery voice near his shoulder:"Yeh seem t''be in a pretty bad way, boy?"
463Charge?
463D''yeh think we''ll wallop''em?"
463Did n''t I tell yeh so?
463Did n''t the cavalry all start this morning?"
463Did you, b''Gawd?"
463Do n''t we do all that men can?"
463Do yeh feel all right?
463Eh?
463Finally he said:"Well, you do n''t know everything in the world, do you?"
463Got shot?
463He began t''peck at Jack''s elbow, an''he ses:''Say, where''s th''road t''th''river?''
463He could hear the men whisper jerky sentences:"Say-- what''s all this-- about?"
463He imagined the whole regiment saying:"Where''s Henry Fleming?
463He run, did n''t''e?
463He ses:''Well, well, well,''he ses,''those two babies?''
463He''s up an''gone, ai n''t''e?
463His friend turned his head in some surprise,"Why, what was yeh goin''t''say?"
463How did yeh git''way over here, anyhow?
463How yeh know it is?"
463I''d do it fer you, Would n''t I, Henry?"
463I''ve allus been a pretty good feller, ai n''t I?
463If none of the little pieces were wise enough to save themselves from the flurry of death at such a time, why, then, where would be the army?
463Inteh th''fields?
463Is he?
463Jest t''pull me along outer th''road?
463Jim Conklin?"
463Oh, it is?
463Oh, they was, eh?
463One huge man was asking of the sky:"Say, where de plank road?
463One man had a final objection:"How could yeh hear''em talkin''?"
463See that fire?"
463Tell me, wo n''t you, Jim?"
463Th''304th N''York?
463The two infantrymen could hear nothing until finally he asked:"What troops can you spare?"
463There ai n''t nothin''th''matter with yeh, Henry, is there?"
463There, Flemin'', what d''yeh think''a that?
463There, Wilson, m''boy, put that in a letter an''send it hum t''yer mother, hay?
463They made gestures expressive of the sentence:"Ah, what more can we do?"
463Well, then, you ca n''t say it''s th''army''s fault, can you?"
463Well, they did n''t run t''day, did they, hey?
463What at?
463What do they take us for-- why do n''t they send supports?
463What fer?
463What manner of men were they, anyhow?
463What the dickens is wrong with you?"
463What you doing here?"
463What you thinking about?
463What''s th''good fightin''''mong ourselves?"
463What''s that?
463What?
463Where is it located?"
463Where is your''n located?"
463Where th''blazes does he git his stren''th from?"
463Where was yeh?"
463Where you goin''t''sleep?"
463Where you going?
463Where-- where yeh goin''?"
463Who is it?"
463Why ca n''t somebody send us supports?"
463Why did n''t yeh say so first?
463Why do n''t they send supports?
463Why in good thunderation ca n''t you be more easy?
463Why, what corps is that in?
463Yeh th''derndest sentinel-- why-- hello, Henry, you here?
463Your reg''ment is a long way from here, ai n''t it?
463ai n''t it hot, hey?"
463he ses,''by th''way, who was that lad what carried th''flag?''
47795They''re right on us; did n''t you hear the guards fire?
47795What do you want here?
47795What shall be done with them?
47795Where do you belong?
47795Who''s got my boots?
47795A cool listener outside might distinguish such expressions as these:"Where the devil''s my hat?"
47795Above all, why were these movements delayed a day when Lexington was in such peril?
47795Allowing that they had always done their duty in the places assigned them, had they done it better than we?
47795And now, should we approve Blue Mills?
47795And who could tell?
47795And who did we mean by that indefinite_ they_?
47795And who knows that our conduct did not make many friends of enemies?
47795And why had we not pressed the retreat of the enemy, while his soldiers were discouraged by being forced from so strong a position?
47795At least, were we not as able to pursue as the enemy to retreat?
47795Besides, were we not engaged in a just cause?
47795But how were we to move without transportation?
47795But this is a tame comparison; for what is money compared with the reward of the soldier who participates in a successful battle?
47795But was not the theme an eloquent one?--and who had a better right to boast than_ our_ general, and who to be proud than_ we_?
47795But were these men abusing their superiors without a cause, or were they replying to abuse?
47795But where was Green?
47795But where was Smith?
47795But why did we not think of that before?
47795But why were those guns left thus?
47795But would we pursue to Lexington?
47795Captain Herron asked,"Shall we advance in line, Colonel?"
47795Could spirits inhabit such foul tenements, and then fly to the stars?
47795Could such a movement succeed?
47795Could there be a greater evidence of this than the deplorable state of things in this section of country?
47795Could we be blamed for that?--we who so long had tasted nothing better than salt bacon and hard crackers?
47795Could we have asked for a better leader?
47795Did he rely on Providence alone, or on accidental reports from citizens?
47795Did the country afford no better roads than this?
47795Does any one recollect it?
47795Had Washington, Madison and Jefferson lived to organize anarchy and confound the world?
47795Had it taken the wisdom and blood of a generation to found and build a temple which treason could tear down in an hour?
47795Had our forces indeed retreated from Bolivar, or were the rebels making designs in their rear?
47795Had the Fathers fought in vain?
47795Had the age begun to retreat?
47795Had they been braver in battle, or had they exposed themselves to greater danger?
47795Had they been more exemplary in morals, or more attentive to duty, or more patient under suffering?
47795Had they been so diligent in the acquisition of military knowledge as to be worthy of exemption from hardship?
47795Had we done so little, suffered so little, and complained so much?
47795Had we failed our country in the hour of trial?
47795Had we left our homes and all the comforts of life, and come here to guard rebel property?
47795Had we no generals capable of following up a victory?
47795How does it all sum up?
47795How, under such circumstances, could we expect neutrality from them, to say nothing of friendship?
47795If Colonel Williams wanted to put up a small work against infantry, why did he not cut timber and make a stockade?
47795If he wanted to make a fort which would resist artillery, why did he not select an eligible spot, and make one which would answer the purpose?
47795If his force was insufficient, why was our regiment still lying at Macon?
47795In the meantime would we be reinforced?
47795Is it surprising then, that the rebels should have organized a company of cavalry within nine miles of us?
47795It is a monster that has inflicted upon us untold wrongs, but could any one give his locality?
47795Must the Lamp of Liberty which had been lighted to guide the footsteps of the nations go out in the gloom which was gathering around us?
47795Nearly all, however, were Western men either by birth or long residence, and were( is it boasting to say it?)
47795Of what avail was it for a man to take his household goods on his back and endeavor to catch a horse?
47795Or did he unbosom his camp to his foes and trust to their magnanimity?
47795Or was he afraid of wolves?
47795Or were they too timid to go far?
47795Or, if it was"strategy"to advance on such a road, would the advantages counterbalance the delay in constructing bridges?
47795Perhaps the coat had something to do with it-- who knew?
47795Should it degenerate into a contemptible Mexican civilization?
47795Should it fall into the whirlpool of Gallic anarchy?
47795The rebels began to retreat from the vicinity of St. Joseph, and what then?
47795The sound put Colonel Pugh in ecstacies; and looking around, he called out in his peculiar tone of voice,"Boys, d''ye hear that?"
47795To the Hannibal& St. Joseph Railroad, whence it was rumored the regiment had been ordered to Quincy, Illinois-- for what purpose?
47795Was Progress to stop here?
47795Was it intended for any thing?
47795Was it intended to contain artillery?
47795Was it intended to protect infantry?
47795Was it intended to resist artillery?
47795Was it possible that such masses of corruption had been the dwelling places of immortal souls?
47795Was it to evade, deceive, or surprise the enemy?
47795Was it to take rest before falling upon him?
47795Was justice to be overthrown?
47795Was progress baffled?
47795Was the enemy there?
47795Was the reason of the ages to be contradicted?
47795Was there ever such an assemblage of patriots?--so much unity, so much courage, so much hope?
47795Was this sharing the hardships of war as they had promised to do, while we were yet citizens?
47795We had also a corral which was supplied with beef(?)
47795We would have blushed to look our friends in the face; for who thought of us now?
47795Well, if such a bellows would not float a man, what would?
47795Well, luxuries among soldiers are so rare, who could envy them that?
47795Well, what did we do next?
47795Well, what preparations did Colonel Smith make in the meantime to meet them?
47795Well, who could blame us for rejoicing in our splendid victory, and in our idol and ideal general?
47795Were the gods propitious, or were our enemies too chivalrous to assail us, defenseless as we were?
47795Were they captured by the enemy?
47795Were they committing a crime?
47795Were they not veterans, imbrowned by long exposure, and at home amid the elements of battle?
47795What are men on horseback with shotguns against infantry with bayonets?
47795What did all this signify?
47795What excuse, then, can he make for consuming two days in this march?
47795What had we done to merit less than these comrades of ours?
47795What had we to fear?
47795What then were we to do?
47795What was he to do?
47795What was now the situation?
47795What was the cause of this alarm?
47795What was to be done?
47795What wonder?
47795Where and why were we thus marching?
47795Where are they?
47795Where or how did we get them?
47795Where were we, and what was to pay?
47795Who but a coward would have done differently?
47795Who could blame us?
47795Who knew now that the enemy was not in force beyond our observation ready to dispute our landing?
47795Who then shall say, that, within the utmost scope of endurance, General Grant should not have pursued as soon as the enemy retreated?
47795Who was he to be?
47795Who would then have believed that under this same man we were destined to be led to honor and glory?
47795Why could we not trespass upon it?
47795Why did it not pay us?
47795Why did we not push on?
47795Why then could they not have been brought away?
47795Why were we moving so far to the north of Bolivar, and on such an extraordinary road?
47795Why, then, did we not advance?
47795Why, then, was the parapet so weak?
47795Why, then, were there no embrasures?
47795Would his troops be here in time?
47795[ What became of these messengers?
47795and would not, then, this great disparity in our favor enable us speedily to overcome them?
47795but rather,"Did he do his whole duty in the place assigned him?"
47795or had General Pope missed the way?
4546Any chickens?
4546Any eggs?
4546Any flour or grain?
4546Any guerrillas?
4546Are you a member of the other House?
4546Are you the Governor of a State?
4546Certainly not"Have you ever had a vote of thanks by name?
4546Do you think you could become so interested in my conversation as not to notice the door- keeper?
4546Have you any meat?
4546Is anybody in the house?
4546Is it a good road, and how far?
4546Is it locked up?
4546Is no one about who can get in?
4546Now, where is the proper place to break it?
4546Well, ai n''t you on our side?
4546Well,said he,"did n''t you think it was the biggest shuck and the littlest ear that ever you did see?"
4546Well,said he,"did you see him take it off?"
4546Well,said he,"what do you want of me?"
4546Well,said he,"why do n''t you go into the gallery?"
4546What appointment?
4546What do you know of Uncle Billy?
4546What do you live on?
4546What is to be done with the freedmen?
4546What is your badge?
4546Where?
4546Why?
45461, but are in the immediate neighborhood, on their plantations?
45469:45 p.m."LIEUTENANT- GENERAL GRANT:"Would it not be well for Warren to go down with his whole corps and smash up the force in front of Sheridan?
4546A few days afterward the husband again appealed to his commanding officer( Taylor), who exclaimed:"Have n''t you got a musket?
4546After shaking hands all round, the Governor said,"Coleman, what the devil is the matter here?"
4546As I drew up by the party, Bismarck accosted me with,"Well, General, are n''t you hungry?
4546At every meal the steward would come to me, and say,"Captain Sherman, will you bring your ladies to the table?"
4546At this General Grant remarked:"Did he say so?
4546But it first became necessary to settle the important question of who should succeed General McPherson?
4546But what next?
4546Ca n''t you defend your own family?"
4546Can Grant supply himself from the Mississippi?
4546Can it be that such a resort finds root in any stratum of American opinion?
4546Can we whip the South?
4546Can you expedite the sending to Nashville of the recruits that are in Indiana and Ohio?
4546Could not such a camp be established about Pocotaligo or Coosawhatchie?
4546Could not such escaped slaves find at least a partial supply of food in the rice- fields about Savannah, and cotton plantations on the coast?
4546Could not your cavalry go back by the way of Stony Creek depot and destroy or capture the store of supplies there?
4546Davis, etc.?
4546General Blair simply asked,"Do you like it?"
4546General Grant remarked,"What is to prevent their laying the rails again?"
4546General Halleck had a map on his table, with a large pencil in his hand, and asked,"where is the rebel line?"
4546Governor of a State?
4546Halleck was present and spoke up, saying:"How would Sheridan do?"
4546Halleck''s telegram of last night says:"Who sent Smith''s division to Nashville?
4546Has any thing been heard from the troops ordered from Vicksburg?
4546Have any more troops arrived from Richmond, or are any more coming, or reported to be coming?
4546He asked me,"Where?"
4546He dropped out of the retinue with an orderly, and after we had ridden a mile or so he overtook us, and I asked him,"What luck?"
4546He inquired,"Why not both?"
4546He remaining mounted, spoke first to me, saying simply,"How are you, Sheridan?"
4546He said:"What is the use of your persevering?
4546He then asked in his quizzical way,"Are you a foreign embassador?"
4546He then said,"Have you any impudence?"
4546He turned to me and said,"Ca n''t you take your regiment up there?"
4546I answered, rather shortly,''How the devil do you know there is a masked battery?
4546I answered:"How can you go to New York?
4546I asked Deshler:"What does this mean?
4546I assured him with thanks that I was"first- rate,"when, pointing toward the village, he asked,"Is General Lee up there?"
4546I had on my undress uniform indicating my rank, and inquired of the sentinel,"Is General Fremont up?"
4546I presume that some one said to the Governor about this time,"Why do n''t you get Sheridan?"
4546I said I had come to see him on business; and he added,"You do n''t suppose that he will see such as you?"
4546I touched it and examined one or two of the larger pieces, and asked,"Is it gold?"
4546If Hood goes to the Alabama line, will it not be impossible for him to subsist his army?
4546If the rebel leaders were to arm the slaves, what would be its effect?
4546If you ca n''t get over, how can the rebels get at you?''
4546In that event, would it not be possible for you to become a citizen of our State?
4546MAJOR- GENERAL THOMAS, Nashville, Tenn. Is there not danger of Forrest moving down the Cumberland to where he can cross it?
4546Major Childs inquired,"Where is Coacoochee?"
4546Major W. T. Sherman: Will you accept the chief clerkship of the War Department?
4546Mason said to me,"What is that?"
4546Member of Congress?"
4546Mr. Lincoln, who was still standing, said,"Threatened to shoot you?"
4546Of parties claiming foreign protection?
4546Offering the flask to his uncle, he said:"You''ve had a hard day of it; wo n''t you refresh yourself?"
4546Often"Johnny"would call:"Well, Yank, when are you coming into town?"
4546Others say:"What are we to do?
4546Pausing awhile, and watching the operations of this man roasting his corn, he said,"What are you doing?"
4546Renick said,"What do you want with General Fremont?"
4546Sherman said to me:"Admiral, how could you make such a remark to McClernand?
4546Should his request be granted, who would you like as his successor?
4546Should we allow them to escape, etc.?
4546So that among the younger officers the query was very natural,"Who the devil is Governor of California?"
4546So that the only questions that remained were, would he surrender at Raleigh?
4546Some say:"I have such a one sick at my house; who will wait on them when I am gone?"
4546State in what manner you would rather live--whether scattered among the whites, or in colonies by yourselves?
4546State what you understand by slavery, and the freedom that was to be given by the President''s proclamation?
4546State what, in your opinion, is the best way to enlist colored men as soldiers?
4546The Governor knocked at the door, and on inquiry from inside"Who''s there?"
4546The next was,"What are WE to do?"
4546Then followed the question,"Is Fort McAllister taken?"
4546This being so, how is it possible for the people still here( mostly women and children) to find any shelter?
4546This feature was more than acceptable to the parents at times, for how else could they so thoroughly learn all the neighborhood gossip?
4546We then returned to Benicia, and Wool''s first question was,"What luck?"
4546What can I do for you?"
4546What signified the terms to them, so long as we obtained the actual surrender of people who only wanted a good opportunity to give up gracefully?
4546What was to be done with the rebel armies when defeated?
4546When ground is owned by parties who have gone south, and have leased the ground to parties now in the city who own the improvements on the ground?
4546When he did speak it was to ask:"Grant, how many wolves do you think there are in that pack?"
4546When houses are occupied and the owner has gone south, leaving an agent to collect rent for his benefit?
4546When houses are owned by loyal citizens, but are unoccupied?
4546When movable property is found in stores that are closed?
4546When parties owning houses have gone south, and the tenant has given his notes for the rent in advance?
4546When parties who occupy the house are creditors of the owner, who has gone south?
4546When the owner has gone south, and parties here hold liens on the property and are collecting the rents to satisfy their liens?
4546When the owner lives in town, and refuses to take the oath of allegiance?
4546When the tenant has expended several months''rent in repairs on the house?
4546Where are you?"
4546Who ever supposed they would come away down here in Alabama?"
4546Who have prompted him?
4546Why do you not obey my orders to report strength and positions of your command?
4546Why do you not obey my orders to report strength and positions of your command?
4546Why not attack at once?
4546Why was this, or why was all mention of any field of duty for the head of the army left out of the army regulations?
4546Wo n''t you speak your mind freely on this question of slavery, that so agitates the land?
4546said Mr. Lincoln,"how are they getting along down there?"
4546said a listener,"do n''t you know that old Sherman carries a duplicate tunnel along?"
4546where are they to come from?"
4546will you work?
5394And how many had the courage to do that?
5394And the Judge, Mr. Brinsmade-- how is he?
5394And what are you here?
5394And yet--"Yes?
5394And you?
5394Brice,said the General, returning his salute,"been celebrating this glorious Fourth with some of our Rebel friends?"
5394Brice?
5394Clarence Colfax, have you known and loved me all my life that you might accuse me of this? 5394 Clarence, after what you have done for the South?"
5394Comyn, what are you doing here? 5394 Could n''t they do better for you than a second- lieutenancy?"
5394Did the boys get back?
5394Die?
5394Do n''t smoke, eh?
5394Do you come from St. Louis, sir?
5394Do you know him?
5394Gone?
5394How can you be so reckless?
5394How did you burn our sap- rollers?
5394How did you know?
5394How was Judge Whipple to- day?
5394Is he-- dead?
5394Jinny, do you mean it?
5394Miss Carvel?
5394Mrs. Brice is ill?
5394Oh, Pa, do you think you are safe here?
5394Oh, how dare you?
5394Remember him? 5394 Speaking of St. Louis, General,"said Mr. Brinsmade, presently,"have you ever heard of Stephen Brice?
5394Stephen Brice, did you say?
5394Stephen Brice? 5394 This is too much, Jennison,"came from the bed a voice that was pitifully weak;"why do you bring Yankees in here?"
5394What have I done for her?
5394What regiment stayed under the bank?
5394What was his name, sir?
5394What''s all this nonsense, Ned?
5394What''s his name?
5394What''s the matter, Jinny?
5394When are you to be married?
5394Where is Clarence?
5394Where is he?
5394Where is he?
5394Where''s Clarence?
5394Where?
5394Who shall I say, sir?
5394Why do you risk your life in this way? 5394 Why, yes, Pa.""Are you going to marry Clarence?"
5394Would you not like to see a clergyman, Judge?
5394Yes, Pa."Virginia, are you happy?
5394Yes?
5394You ai n''t fooling?
5394You ai n''t gwine away, Marse Judge?
5394You have commanded men?
5394You''re not offended, Brice?
5394A smile?
5394Admiral, did the Rebs put a bullet through your rum casks?
5394After a while:"Is Uncle Silas dying?"
5394And Mr. Brinsmade tells me you were useful in many ways What was your rank in the Home Guards?"
5394And now,"he added, wheeling on the Colonel when each had a glass in his hand,"who was in command of that company on the right, in the swamp?
5394And then, with some vehemence,"What is he doing in Vicksburg?"
5394Be a pity to disappoint her-- eh?"
5394Brice?"
5394Brinsmade?"
5394But now--""But now?"
5394Can it be that you have at last returned in your allegiances to the flag for which your forefathers died?"
5394Clarence?"
5394Did you notice how he flared up when I mentioned the girl?"
5394Do you know how we got percussion caps, seh?
5394Do you remember him?"
5394Do you remember the doe coming out of the forest, and how she ran screaming when I tried to kiss you?
5394Do you think Clarence could spare you for a little while every day?
5394Do you, Mr. Brice?
5394He''s the oldest friend I''ve got in St. Louis, honey and now-- now--""Pa, you''ve been in battle?"
5394How I hated that man,"he cried,"how I hated him?"
5394How the devil did he get a permit?
5394I wonder why he did not follow me up?"
5394Is that so?"
5394Jennison,"he cried,"Jennison, why in hell did you give up?"
5394Louis?"
5394Louis?"
5394She is a noble woman--""Her son?"
5394The General was silent a moment: Then he said"Do you remember meeting me on the boat when I was leaving St. Louis, after the capture of Fort Henry?"
5394Then he heard that the Judge was dying--""He has given his word to Mr. Brinsmade?
5394Virginia-- will you play my hymn-- once more-- once more?"
5394Was her bitterness against the North not just?
5394Was it out of consideration for her that Mrs. Brice would turn the Judge from this topic which he seemed to love best?
5394Was it the chivalry inherited from a long life of Colfaxes who were gentlemen?
5394Was it true that she would marry Clarence?
5394What are they about at Washington?"
5394What else has he done to endear himself?"
5394What pleasure could it have been all through his illness to look upon this silent and cruel reminder of days gone by forever?
5394What was it in Silas Whipple''s nature that courted the pain of memories?
5394What was that upon the sleeper''s face from which they drew back?
5394Where are those cigars Mr. Brinsmade was talking about?"
5394Where is he, Robinson?"
5394Why did n''t you do it?"
5394Why did you come to St. Louis at all?"
5394Why did you come?
5394Why had he not returned?
5394cried Jennison, seizing Stephen''s rigid arm,"does he look as bad as that?
5394he cried,"will he die?"
5394repeated Clarence,"Brice?
31775A Corporal from my Headquarters?
31775A real gun, that''ll be all my own, and will shoot and kick, and crack loud?
31775Ai n''t we most there, Pap?

31775Blazes and brimstone,exploded the Yard- Master;"how in the devil''s name do you suppose I can tell anything about the trains going out?
31775But s''posin''a rebel runs at you with his bayonet,expostulated Harry Joslyn,"ought n''t you to know how to ward him off and settle him?"
31775But what am I do to?
31775But what in the world''m I goin''to do with that hoss and buckboard? 31775 But when are we going to get our guns and knapsacks and things, and start for the regiment?"
31775Ca n''t he turn the steam onto''em, and scald''em if they try to git at him?
31775Ca n''t we hang''em, anyway?
31775Ca n''t, eh?
31775Col. Billings,said the General, handing him the two pieces of paper,"do you recognize these?"
31775Corpril Elliott''s?
31775Could the gunner knock a man''s head off, or one of his legs, just as he pleased?
31775Did anybody ever see sich a commotion kicked up over one four- year- old hoss, and not a particularly good hoss at that? 31775 Did they ever fire chain- shot, which would cut down trees and sweep away companies of men?"
31775Did they have flint- locks or caps?
31775Did you happen to know a Mr. Daniel Elliott in that company?
31775Did you say you''d got the boys in there? 31775 Did you see a star?"
31775Did you see a star?
31775Did you see a star?
31775Did you see a star?

31775Do you defy the sovereign people of Indiana, you military autocrat?
31775Do you mean to?
31775Do you really mean to say that any man has really such a name as that?
31775Do you say that Sherman has extra tunnels, too, to put in whenever one is needed?
31775Do you think you can do it, if I give you leave?
31775Do? 31775 Dress parade every day?"
31775Goin''to run away? 31775 Going back to the army?"
31775Good gracious, do they want to wear the track and wheels and injines clean out?
31775Great Jehosephat, what''s come over Levi?
31775Had n''t we better ask for some help?
31775Hain''t the engineer got an iron shield that he kin git behind, so they ca n''t shoot him?
31775Has he become the High- muk- a- muk of the whole army? 31775 Have n''t I met you before?
31775Have n''t they any real big guns that will?
31775Have they bin roundin''up some country school- houses, and enlisted all the boys that was in the fourth reader and Ray''s arithmetic?
31775Have you bit it off, or did some girl, that you bolted off in such a hurry to see, drain you so dry o''talk that you haint got a word left? 31775 Hello, Injianny; what are you doin''here?"
31775Here, Sergeant,called out the Provost- Marshal from the other room,"what are you fooling around in there so long for?"
31775Here, old man,said the Lieutenant in command;"who are you, and what are you doing here?"
31775Here, who are you, and where are you going so early in the morning?
31775Here, who are you? 31775 Here, you young brats, what are you up to?"
31775How are you? 31775 How big a ball did the guns shoot?"
31775How could they''ve found her out so soon?

31775How many Union soldiers had been killed?
31775How many battles had been fought there?
31775How many men do you want? 31775 How many men would it kill if they were put one behind another?"
31775How many rebels?
31775How much powder did it take to load them?
31775How near would the guns come to hitting a man a mile off?
31775How''d you get along with Billings?
31775How''d you like the looks o''that, old butternut? 31775 Howly saints, fwhat is old Clootie after me for?
31775I mean, what army do you belong to?
31775I say, Shorty,said Si, coming down to where that worthy was stationed,"what d''you think o''the boys now?
31775If I was only certain o''that,said Shorty meditatively,"I''d--""Certain?
31775If all the rest of the men were killed would n''t the powder- monkey get a chance to fire the gun?
31775If the rebels shoot the bell, wo n''t it make a noise that they kin hear clear back at Nashville?
31775Inasmuch as we''ll have to trust to the Lord at last, anyway,said Shorty, with a return of his old spirit,"why not go the whole gamut?
31775Into anything to put in the time?
31775Is it really?
31775Is that you, Brother Welch? 31775 Is that you?
31775Is this right?
31775Is your engineer all right?
31775Just plug at''em as you would at a crow, and then go on your way whistlin''?
31775Ketch what? 31775 Kin we plug up the holes, anyway, then, and start agin?"
31775Kin you walk?
31775Mad? 31775 Maria, how can you talk so?"
31775McGillicuddy; ai n''t that it?
31775Mister Billings,said he, sternly,"what was the General''s orders about wearin''anything military?"
31775Must n''t we eat none o''their pies?
31775Now, Jim Humphreys, what in blazes are you bangin''away at now?
31775Now, great Scott, what''s up?
31775Now, what in thunder does this mean?
31775Pop stole Gen. Rosecrans''s cow from Headquarters? 31775 Promoted day before yesterday,"communed Shorty;"and you wo n''t presume to boss or command no more''n he would?"
31775Purty good milker, is she?
31775Recollect that hill ovyr there? 31775 Right over the hill, did you say?"
31775Say, Corpril,inquired Harry,"what''s to be done with them rebels over there at the end o''the bridge?"
31775Say, my friend,said the officer,"who brought that cow in?"
31775Sergeant, are you in command of this squad?
31775Si Klegg, what are you doin''here?
31775So you''re sure they ca n''t do more harm to the bridge?
31775So?
31775Them that we shot?
31775They are all here,he said;"but how in the world am I goin''to keep''em through another night?"
31775Vhat golor off a gravat do you vant?
31775WHAT''S the program?
31775Was there any more with him?
31775Was you asleep?
31775Well, ai n''t you goin''to shake hands with me? 31775 Well, what is it?"
31775Well, why do n''t you say something? 31775 Well,"answered Bob, with a gulp,"let me go along, then, as a Corporal-- I''ll change my blouse and borrow a Corporal''s--""Rankin''after me?"
31775Were the guns rifled or smooth- bore?
31775What are you doing in here, anyway? 31775 What are you dreamin''on?
31775What are you in such a hurry for, old cross- patch? 31775 What does he mean by duplicate, Corpril?"
31775What does this mean?
31775What foh you come dis- a- way, boys?
31775What in the world made you so long comin''?
31775What in the world will they do with him?
31775What in the world''s the matter with you?
31775What in the world''s the matter?
31775What makes you like Maria better''n you do''Mandy?
31775What sort of a man was he?
31775What star was it?
31775What star was it?
31775What star was it?
31775What was it?
31775What was the matter, Colonel?
31775What''d you do to them boys back there?
31775What''ll happen if they shoot the head- light out?
31775What''n the world are they stoppin''here for?
31775What''re all yo''uns weltin''me for? 31775 What''re you thinkin''about?"
31775What''re you young whelps shootin''for?
31775What''s all that shootin''about?
31775What''s all this row? 31775 What''s eatin''you?
31775What''s it doin''in camp? 31775 What''s size got to do with gittin''breakfast?"
31775What''s that?
31775What''s that?
31775What''s the matter with you? 31775 What''s the matter?"
31775What''s the use of it, I''d like to know? 31775 What''s this?
31775What''s this?
31775What''s up now?
31775What''s up?
31775What''ve I done?
31775When''ll we see some rebels?
31775When''re we likely to see some guerrillas?
31775Where are you from?
31775Where are you from?'' 31775 Where are you goin''?"
31775Where did you git catridges?
31775Where did you say you got her?
31775Where do you belong?
31775Where do you belong?
31775Where do you see the devil?
31775Where in time do you s''pose the 200th Injianny is in all this freshet of men and mules and bosses?
31775Where is he?
31775Where were they buried?
31775Where, you flannel- mouthed Mick?
31775Where?
31775Who dares give orders that over- ride mine? 31775 Who in the world do you s''pose it''s from, Si?"
31775Who''s in charge here?
31775Who''s me?
31775Whose head''ll you knock off?
31775Whose sister is she, anyway?
31775Why are those cotton- cars still standing there this morning, after the orders I gave you yesterday?
31775Why ca n''t you and I go along together and run the thing? 31775 Why do n''t you hunt down the guerrillas and kill''em off and be done with''em?"
31775Why should I tell you a lie about a little thing like a cow?
31775Why, Annabel,said Si, considerably abashed;"what''s the matter?
31775Why, how in the world did they manage?
31775Why, what in the world have I got on that''s military?
31775Why, yo''robber, what d''yo''mean?
31775Will I dare to speak to such a high- flyer?
31775Will the guerrillas begin shootin''at us as soon''s we cross the river?
31775Yit, how kin I git away from Si, now?
31775You ai n''t a- goin''to keep''em through another night, are you?
31775You little numbskulls,said Si;"why did n''t you come to use and tell us about this?"
31775You seen that big iron buildin''we went into to git on the cars at Louisville? 31775 You''ll play fair?"
31775You''re Si Klegg, are n''t you, of the 200th Ind.?
31775''Are you a widower?''
31775And ai n''t I tryin''to save his life?
31775And the other asked:"And the raid''ll be made ter- morrer?"
31775And the questions that he asked:"Say, Sergeant, will the guerrillas holler before they shoot, or shoot before they holler?"
31775And what are you doin''out there?"
31775And, Serg''t Klegg, will you take command?
31775Are n''t you from Indiana?"
31775Are you too tired to move?
31775As soon as he was well on his way the woman leaned forward and asked Shorty in an earnest tone:"Did you say that you belonged to the 200th Ind.?"
31775As they were all eating they heard a voice outside which struck on the chords of their memories:"Where is that Yard- Boss?
31775But how''m I goin''to do it?
31775But where''ve I heard that croakin''voice before?"
31775By the way, Sammy, ca n''t you sneak into Miss Maria''s room, and steal a piece o''ribbon, or something that belongs to her?"
31775Ca n''t I go with you and do something-- load guns, or something?
31775Deacon Klegg?"
31775Deacon?
31775Did n''t used to git up so early when you was at home, did you?"
31775Did you direct it; and, if so, what authority had you for doing so?"
31775Did you ever hear o''sich snap?
31775Did you ever hear of such a ridiculous name?"
31775Do n''t you know that it''s strictly against orders to trot horses in their present condition?"
31775Do n''t you know your own officers when you hear their voices?"
31775Do n''t you know your right hands from your lefts?
31775Do n''t you say it yersilf?"
31775Do n''t you see that white there?"
31775Do n''t you think you could take charge of it?
31775Do you hear?"
31775Fond of thorobred stock, are you?
31775General,"answered the Deacon hastily,"I""General?
31775Gosh darn it,"Si exploded,"what glandered fool was it that could n''t tell''backer- sick from smallpox?
31775Got any fever?
31775Got any money?"
31775Got any more catridges?
31775Great Scott, what''s the matter with you roosters?
31775Great grief, ketch what?"
31775Hain''t you learned yit that you must come to Headquarters in full dress?
31775Have they put him in Gen. Rosecrans''s place?"
31775Have you got any axes and saws on the train?
31775He began by wondering what sort of a girl she really was, compared to Si''s sisters, and whether she was used to such a home as this?
31775How are you feeling yourself?
31775How could he talk to her as if she were some ordinary girl?
31775How dared Si speak that way to such a peerless creature?
31775How in the world are we ever goin''to git up spunk enough to leave this and go back to the field?"
31775How in the world did you git the chicken, Pap?"
31775How is he getting along?"
31775How kin I ever go to the communion table agin?"
31775How long is the blamed old bridge, anyway?"
31775How long''ve you bin in the army?
31775How would he himself compare with her, when he dared not even raise his eyes to Maria?
31775How?
31775I s''pose him and you board together, and eat at the same table when you are in the army, do n''t you?"
31775I was""What''s the matter with you, you ignoramus?"
31775If it ai n''t nothing, why do n''t Randy Widgeon go down there a little while, with the rest o''the boys, and do his share?"
31775Is it for atin''that little taste o''ham last Friday?
31775Is there any deviltry that he wo n''t git into?"
31775It ca n''t be from him, can it?
31775Kin they shoot through the sides o''the tender, and let all the water out and stop the engine?"
31775Lived there long?"
31775Massa said you''d burn me alibe if you eber cotched me, but you wo n''t, will you?"
31775Me mad?
31775Now what are they goin''to ketch?"
31775Now will you lay down and go to sleep?
31775Now, Sammy, kin you write?"
31775Now, tell me, who brought that cow here?"
31775One of the 200th Ind.?
31775One of the boys in trouble?
31775Pretty neat job for a starter, was n''t it?"
31775Purty cute, do n''t you think?"
31775Q?"
31775Quiet for a minute, and then:"Shall we holler before we shoot or shoot before we holler?"
31775Say you''ve got the thief, too?"
31775See here?"
31775See that cow back there?
31775See?
31775Shorty, kin you reach me that gun o''Si''s out o''the wagon?
31775Shorty?"
31775Shorty?"
31775Si, ai n''t you goin''to kiss your sister?
31775Si, you did n''t let her know before you did us, did you?"
31775The burning questions were who had survived that terrible day?
31775The first- comer looked him over an instant, and then said:"Were you out late last night?"
31775Then turning to the Deacon:"You old rascal, you''ll steal the General''s cow, will you?
31775Then:"Have the guerrillas guns that''ll shoot through the sides of the cars?"
31775They heard Monty Scruggs''s baritone call:"Say, Alf, did you see me salt that feller that''s bin yellin''and cussin''at me over there?
31775They''ve arrested him and are taking him up there?"
31775Tryin''to patch''em up into decent- lookin''men?
31775Want to go along?"
31775Want to go along?"
31775Was ever anybody else so big a fool about a girl?
31775Was it bad?"
31775Was she as handsome, as fine, as high- spirited as Maria?
31775Was that all right?"
31775We''ll have to learn how, Gid, so''s to cook''em for ourselves, and when we git back home wo n''t we astonish our mothers and sisters?"
31775Well, Mr. Skip- and- away, how d''you do?
31775Whah''d you git so many guns, an''sich big ones?
31775What are you mad about?"
31775What brung you here?"
31775What could he do?
31775What do they want with so many drummer- boys?"
31775What do you mean?
31775What do you suppose she thinks we want a baby for?"
31775What do you think he done last night?
31775What does she look like?
31775What higher pinnacle of greatness could any boy hope to reach?
31775What in the world are you doin''over here?"
31775What in the world''ve I to be mad about?"
31775What is your name?"
31775What locoed calves have you runnin''up to your Headquarters bawlin''reports?"
31775What made you in sich a dreadful hurry to see her?
31775What need you bother about a dead rebel?
31775What sort o''guns has the guerrillas?"
31775What voices that once rang out in command on the drill- ground, in camp and battle, were now silent, and whose would be lifted instead?
31775What''d he interfere for?
31775What''d you mean--"He was broken in upon by Maria''s voice as she came in at the head of a bevy of other girls:"Si Klegg, ai n''t you ever comin''out?
31775What''d you skip out from our house for?
31775What''ll I be doin''this time next week?
31775What''re you doin''to them ragamuffins that you''ve bin gatherin''up?
31775What''s akeepin''you?
31775What''s become o''your tongue?"
31775What''s he doin''in this caboose?
31775When he had gathered them there he demanded:"Now, I want to know at once what this means?"
31775Where are the boys?"
31775Where did you get that cow?"
31775Where do you belong?"
31775Where in the world did you come from, and how did you find out he was comin''home on this train?
31775Where in the world did you come from?"
31775Where is he?"
31775Where is that Yard- Boss?
31775Where kin I git muskets for''em?"
31775Where on earth did you gather up sich a gang o''scare- crows?
31775Where were the next to come from?
31775Where''d I hear his voice before?"
31775Where''d you come from?"
31775Where''s your appetite?"
31775Who are you callin''General, you fool?
31775Who are you?"
31775Who brought her here?"
31775Who commanded the regiment and the companies?
31775Who filled the non- commissioned offices?
31775Who had been so badly wounded as to lose his place on the rolls?
31775Who is she?
31775Why ca n''t we go with them?"
31775Why ca n''t you and I run it together, you next to me?
31775Why ca n''t you get his name right?"
31775Why did n''t you come and speak to us?"
31775Why do n''t they give us real soldier bread?
31775Why do n''t you boys fall in''cordin''to size, as I told you?"
31775Why does the General allow them to stay there?
31775Why should he begin now making comparisons with other girls?
31775Will that do you?"
31775Wo n''t you come along with me, soldier, and have a cigar?"
31775Wo n''t you never know the difference?
31775Wo n''t you read us a chapter o''the Bible and lead us in prayer, Brother Bennett?"
31775Wonder how they cook''em?
31775Wonder if Sergeant Klegg and Corpril Elliott kin keep us from bein''lost?"
31775Wonder if we''ll git our guns here?
31775Would n''t we, Si?"
31775Would you kindly write me the particklers of his death, and also what was done with sich letters and other things that he had?
31775You did n''t go clear up to Bad Ax, did you, and kill that old widower?"
31775You did n''t see the wickedness down there that these Copperheads''s chargin'', did you?
31775You expect Colonels to run hoss- corrals, and manage mule boarding- houses, do you?
31775You hear me?"
31775You never knew who took it, did you?
31775You only found men wicked that''d be wicked any place, and really good men jest as good there as at home?"
31775You recollect them trees that I budded with Rome Beauty scions that I got up the river, do n''t you, Bennett?
31775You understand?"
31775[ Illustration: DON''T YOU KNOW BETTER THAN TO COME TO HEADQUARTERS LIKE THAT?
31775[ Illustration: PURTY GOOD MILKER, IS SHE?
31775[ Illustration:"WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THAT?"
31775[ Illustration:''HOW DO YOU LIKE THE LOOKS OF THAT, OLD BUTTERNUT 169]"You will, eh?"
5395''A ricommindation is it, sorr? 5395 ''Have you a recommendation, Terence?''
5395''What shall we do with the Rebels?'' 5395 And have you a better name for it, Miss Carvel?"
5395Are these Boston ways, Steve?
5395But what made you think of it now?
5395By the way, what''s become of the Colonel?
5395Can we see the President?
5395Can you give us some breakfast?
5395Did n''t he get my telegram day before yesterday? 5395 Did you ever hear the story of Mr. Wallace''s Irish gardener?"
5395Do n''t you remember me, Major?
5395Do you know where General Daniel Carvel lives?
5395Do you think you can find your uncle''s house?
5395Does General Carvel live here?
5395Even to such a doleful place as this?
5395General, could you hold Colonel Colfax until I see you again?
5395Have you got an appointment?
5395He talks to them plainly, does he, so that they understand? 5395 Honey,"said Virginia, as they stood in the deep recess of the window,"would n''t it be nice if we could live here always, away from the world?
5395How did you know?
5395Is Major Brice here?
5395Is he in the city?
5395Is-- is the General a nice man?
5395Major Brice, do you know this gentleman?
5395May I speak to him, General?
5395Oh, ca n''t you do something?
5395Oh, have n''t you heard?
5395Oh, why should I say so if it were not?
5395Sherman,said Mr. Lincoln,"you do n''t want the Major right away, do you?
5395So you''re the spy, are you?
5395Stephen, do you remember that fearful afternoon of the panic, when you came over from Anne Brinsmade''s to reassure me?
5395Tell me about your cousin,he said;"are you going to marry him?"
5395The Edisto, the Broad, the Catawba, the Pedee, and--?
5395Then what are you doing here?
5395Then you have n''t joined the ranks of the grumblers? 5395 To- morrow?"
5395Virginia, did you dream of me?
5395Virginia, will you marry me?
5395What are you waiting for?
5395What do the boys call the General?
5395What do you mean?
5395What is this man doing here, Virginia?
5395What,she flashed,"has n''t any one a right to see the President?
5395What-- what for?
5395Where are you going, Lige?
5395Where''s his Confederate uniform? 5395 Which army?"
5395Who is he?
5395Why did n''t he come with you?
5395Why have you come here?
5395Wo n''t you sit down?
5395You think that you can find your uncle''s house, my dear?
5395You''re sure, miss, it''s life and death?
5395And all this mercy that I have heard about means nothing-- nothing--"Why did she falter and stop?
5395And he looked at me in his keen way, through and through"You saved his life once before, did n''t you?"
5395And so you want me to pardon this Colfax?"
5395And then, as if he expected Hopper to reply:"Shall I kill you?"
5395And then, evidently impressed by the young lady''s looks, he added hospitably,"Kin I do anything fo''you, miss?"
5395Any statement to make?"
5395But do you know what I had under my arm-- what I was saving of all the things I owned?"
5395But how to act?
5395Can you start in half an hour?"
5395Could this fantastically tall, stooping figure before her be that of the President of the United States?
5395Do you remember that day when we were in the summer- house together at Glencoe, long ago?
5395Ever heard of Buck, Miss Carvel?
5395Had Clarence?
5395Here?"
5395How is you, Miss Jinny?"
5395How many navigable rivers did he step across?"
5395How many of the throng hurrying by would not flee, if they could, back to the peaceful homes they had left?
5395How''m I going to stop''em when I want to?''
5395I did not know how he would act, but I went up to him and held out my hand, and said.--"How do you do, Colonel Colfax?"
5395I said:--"''Senator, you''re not going to ask me to turn loose all those at once?''
5395I turned to go, but Clarence Colfax was on my mind"General?"
5395Is he your third or fourth cousin?"
5395Is n''t it like him?
5395Is she a friend of yours, too, Steve?"
5395Is this man a friend of yours?"
5395Lincoln?"
5395No?
5395So you''re the spy, are you?"
5395Sorrow?
5395Stephen tell him?
5395Was he here?
5395Was it because he knew that his hour was not yet come?
5395Was the place watched?
5395What do you think of that?"
5395What had he seen?
5395What had the man done?
5395What manner of man was this?
5395What was I to say?
5395What was in it?
5395What was it-- four hundred and twenty miles in fifty days?
5395What would my great- great- great- great- grandfather say, who was such a stanch Royalist?
5395What''s to prevent my calling up the provost''s guard below?"
5395When you had come back from seeing him?"
5395Where was Clarence?
5395Who had turned it down?
5395Who is he?"
5395Why?
5395Would that save Clarence?
5395You have n''t been one of those who would have liked to try running this country for a day or two, just to show me how to do it?"
5395You mean to say that he will not see a woman in trouble?
5395You''ve heard the story of how he threw a man named Babcock out of his store, who tried to bribe him?"
5395what?"
5395you do n''t want me to turn these loose, too?''
3811A good omen, you mean?
3811About you, Tom?
3811Am it?
3811And Lee and Jackson have got''em in the trap again?
3811And do n''t you love it, and do n''t I love it, Mr. Philosopher and Cynic?
3811And so all this splendid place belongs to an orderly?
3811And they do n''t know we''re here?
3811And what is that?
3811And what is that?
3811And why not?
3811And you, Sir Knight of the Sober Mien?
3811Are St. Clair and Happy Tom here?
3811Are they gaining?
3811Are we to lose our shoes?
3811Are you a ghost?
3811Are you alone left?
3811Are you much hurt, General?
3811Arthur, what do you hear?
3811But can you make it a good try?
3811But what has brought you here?
3811Can you doubt it?
3811Can you see your watch, George?
3811Did n''t you see that sign out there in the road?
3811Did you ever see Old Jack looking like this before?
3811Do I get it right, Swayne? 3811 Do n''t these take me in?"
3811Do you know anything about Meade?
3811Do you know whether we charge them again, Harry?
3811Do you know,whispered St. Clair to Harry,"that this unfinished game is the one they began last spring in the valley?
3811Do you see any people in the town?
3811Do you smoke?
3811Do you suppose for an instant that Lee and Jackson would bring us here if they did n''t have a mighty good reason for it?
3811Do you think Hooker''s army can cross?
3811Do you think it''s true, George?
3811Does General Jackson want us to advance?
3811Early to- morrow morning in the woods back of this point?
3811General Burnside will cross, will he not?
3811General,he said to General Jackson,"does n''t that myriad of Yankees frighten you?"
3811Good to look on, is n''t it, Harry?
3811Guess you''re asking me some kind of a question, sah?
3811Have the whole troop turn aside and chase him?
3811Have they been filling your head with tales of our ferocity and cruelty?
3811Have you an order?
3811Have you found a speck, Arthur?
3811Have you heard at what point on the Potomac the Union army is gathered?
3811How are your Knights of the Golden Circle getting on?
3811How can you help it?
3811How could any man be at such a time?
3811How dare you, George, drag me by the heels that way? 3811 How did you know mein name vas Schneider?"
3811How do we stand?
3811How do you do, Captain Bertrand?
3811How do you intend to help us?
3811How many men do you suppose they have?
3811How''s that?
3811I think, sir,he said,"that I am speaking to Colonel Leonidas Talbot?"
3811If it is, why do we seem to be marching away from the enemy?
3811In Confederate bills or in money?
3811Is General Stuart here?
3811Is it good news, Harry?
3811Is you the orf''cer in command of this yere house?
3811It will cover the river, the far shore, and what''s left of the town,said Dalton,"but what do we care?
3811It''s the Second Manassas over again, is n''t it, Harry?
3811It''s three apiece now, is n''t it?
3811Must I be the first to go?
3811No, George; what was it?
3811No, they''re not; but what does it matter? 3811 Not against the sixty or seventy thousand men and the scores of cannon on those heights?"
3811Not hurt badly?
3811Now, Captain,continued Harry soothingly,"just forget this, wo n''t you?
3811Oh, is that so?
3811Picturesque, is n''t it? 3811 Predestined?"
3811Rain, do you think?
3811Sounds well, eh, Hector?
3811They ca n''t be firing on us, can they, sir?
3811They say that the Yankees, although inferior in numbers, pushed us hard, Harry; is it so?
3811Vat iss dot?
3811Was he hurt badly?
3811Was n''t that a fine parade?
3811Well, Harry,said Happy Tom,"is Old Jack going to send us up against intrenchments and four to one?"
3811Well, lads,he said in a voice of uncommon gentleness,"what have you seen?"
3811Well, then, why are we here?
3811Were you here the day General Jackson came to these quarters, Harry?
3811What are the boys shouting about?
3811What are we fighting for but the right to hold our own property?
3811What did you do after you got the remounts?
3811What do you intend to wear?
3811What do you see, George?
3811What does it mean, George?
3811What harm does that cannonade do, Hector?
3811What has happened?
3811What have you seen?
3811What is it, Arthur?
3811What is it, Captain?
3811What is it, George?
3811What is it, Harry?
3811What is it, Harry?
3811What is it, Thomas, my lad? 3811 What is it?"
3811What is it?
3811What is it?
3811What is your report, Major Hotchkiss?
3811What kind o''hair oil do you use? 3811 What makes you think so?"
3811What new and splendid species of bird is this?
3811What part of the corps, sir, is this?
3811What place is this in the valley, Harry?
3811What time can we reach the river and the place at which they say McClellan is going to cross?
3811What time is it, Harry?
3811What time is it, Hector?
3811What''s Gettysburg, and why does he want me to go there?
3811What''s happened, while you were asleep? 3811 What''s happened?"
3811What''s the matter with you Johnnies?
3811What''s the matter with your friend who''s just gone away? 3811 What''s the matter, Harry?"
3811What''s the matter, Harry?
3811What''s the price of blue silk neckties? 3811 What''s this?"
3811What''s up?
3811When can you start?
3811Where are we going, Harry?
3811Where is St. Clair? 3811 Where''s Happy?"
3811Who leads us?
3811Who was it?
3811Who was it?
3811Why did it never occur to anybody before that Santa Claus was a very black, black man?
3811Why not?
3811Why not?
3811Why should there be?
3811Why should they? 3811 Why this hurry, Lieutenant Kenton?"
3811Will many girls be there?
3811Will the seam show much, Arthur?
3811Yes, a great victory,interrupted Colonel Leonidas Talbot;"but, my friends, what else could you have expected?
3811Yes, about me? 3811 You ca n''t resist flattery like that, can you, Arthur?
3811You consider the victory already won, sir?
3811You know what is in this, Lieutenant Kenton?
3811You know?
3811You saw all this with your own eyes?
3811You''re not appealing to any emotion in me that might bear the name of fear, are you, Harry?
3811You''ve come back alone, it seems,he said,"but you''ve obeyed my instructions not to come without definite news?"
3811Your horse killed? 3811 Your seconds?"
3811''Is this General Jackson?''
3811''Why?''
3811Am I not right, Hector?"
3811Am I promoted to be a colonel or is it merely a lieutenant- colonel?"
3811And did n''t I bring with me Arthur St. Clair, the best dressed man in Charleston, for the Yankees to shoot at?
3811And what do you mean by saying that everything is waiting for me?"
3811Are n''t those rifle shots?"
3811Are you blowing your fingers because they''re cold, Or catching your breath ere you take a hold?
3811Are you going to back out on that bet?
3811As the negro said,''When the boat blows up, whar are you?
3811Bearest thou upon thy person some written token, or, as you would say in your common parlance, what''s your business?"
3811But does n''t it feel good, George, to be back on the plank road?"
3811But our corps is to fall back, you say, Harry?
3811But, Harry, do n''t you think I''ve answered enough questions and that I''ve been awake long enough?
3811Ca n''t you hear their masses gathering in the wood?"
3811Captain?"
3811Could it be possible that they did not know that Jackson with his full force was there?
3811Could their forces following Lee on the right bank be engaged in battle with him?
3811Did any other messenger come?"
3811Did n''t I save the army at Antietam?
3811Did n''t I win the victory at the Second Manassas?
3811Did our people in the Virginia towns give the Yankees any very friendly looks?"
3811Did you come in contact with the enemy?"
3811Do I not tell the truth, Vilhelmina, mein vife?"
3811Do you demand that instead I spend it on fiery whisky to pour down me, as so many public men and leading citizens do?
3811Do you hear me, George?"
3811Do you know anything of Captain Sherburne and his troop?"
3811Do you remember that man whom we saw on the hill watching, the one who I said was Shepard, the ablest and most daring of all their spies?"
3811Do you see that grove about two miles ahead?
3811Had the time come when there was more to be done than any men, great and brilliant as they might be, could do?
3811Harry passed them, and Colonel Talbot said to him:"Do you know when we''ll advance, Harry?"
3811Harry, as he followed him, heard him singing to himself,"Old Joe Hooker, wo n''t you come out of the Wilderness?"
3811Harry, was n''t it awful?
3811Has anything solid come of them?
3811Have n''t I come up here and shed some of my blood and more of my perspiration to save the sacred soil of the Mother of Presidents from invasion?
3811Have n''t we seen the''old fields''of Virginia?"
3811Have you noticed, Harry, that the weakest thing about us is our money?
3811He hummed joyously as he rode along, and the refrain of his song was:"Old Joe Hooker, wo n''t you come out of the Wilderness?"
3811He nodded to Harry and said:"You were present when General Stuart received the message that the enemy was advancing?
3811He put aside an oilcloth which some one had put over him to keep off the morning dew, and called:"Who is there?"
3811He turned toward his comrade and, with his back toward the German, winked and said:"What do you think I''d better do with him?"
3811Hello, what''s that?
3811How did he know that our army was divided?"
3811How did it happen?
3811How far away would you say they are now, Harry?"
3811I approve of it myself, but what will the members of your church say, sir, when they hear of your moral decline?"
3811If it should fall out conveniently, would you do myself and my most excellent friend and second, Lieutenant- Colonel St. Hilaire, a small favor?"
3811Is General Jackson near?"
3811Is n''t that so, Dalton?"
3811Is n''t that so, Happy?"
3811Is the mud knee- deep in valley and gorge?
3811It''s the same, is n''t it, that some of our bands played at Bull Run?"
3811It''s their way, is n''t it?"
3811Jackson turned to Rodes, who commanded the first line of battle, just in the rear of the skirmishers, and said:"Are you ready, General?"
3811Jackson was standing in the door, and with a rising inflection he uttered one word:"Well?"
3811Just listen to this verse, will you?
3811Lankford?"
3811Listen:"What are you waiting for, George, I pray?
3811May I ask, sir, what regiment is this?"
3811Now, by the great horn spoon, what is that?
3811Now, what under the stars is that?"
3811One of them put up his hands, trumpet- shaped, to his mouth and called:"Is that President Davis who has just joined you?"
3811Or wait for May- day, and warm spring suns?
3811That''s something of a tribute to McClellan, is n''t it?"
3811The German straightened himself and, holding his hands aloft, said:"You would not kill me in the shelter uf mein own house?"
3811Then how could you escape from cavalry?"
3811There was no battle now, and what was the use of sneaking around like an Indian, trying to kill somebody who was doing you no harm?
3811There will be death on a greater scale than any the war has yet seen, but it will have to come sooner or later, and why not at Gettysburg?
3811To burnish your buttons, to brighten your guns?
3811To scour your cross belts with fresh pipe clay?
3811Vilhelmina, you are sure ve haf noddings from General Meade?"
3811Was anything more ascertained at the time?
3811Was he killed?"
3811Was n''t that a thorough job?"
3811Was n''t this Burnside the man who delayed a part of the Union attack at Antietam so long that we had time to beat off the other part?"
3811Was the general going to wear that uniform all the time?
3811Were n''t some orders sent along the line a little while ago?"
3811What are you waiting for, Tardy George?"
3811What chance have they, Harry?
3811What chance have they?"
3811What conclusion do you draw from it, Harry?"
3811What did they mean?
3811What did those strange words mean?
3811What do you see?"
3811What do you think we ought to do?"
3811What does it mean?"
3811What does it signify?"
3811What else could one do when he had about twenty girl cousins, all of dancing age?
3811What good would one rabbit be to an army corps of twenty- five thousand men?"
3811What had he to fear?
3811What has your kind master sent us?"
3811What is it?"
3811What is it?"
3811What is the news about me?"
3811What kind of a country is this, Harry, into which we''ve been resurrected?"
3811What kind of mud do you have in Kentucky, Harry?"
3811What right has he to come back into the Valley?"
3811What time is it, Colonel?"
3811What time is it, George?"
3811What was that?"
3811What was the use of victories like Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville, if they merely left matters where they were?
3811What will they think when they hear of these things?
3811What would they think of my gallantry, Hector, if I did not?"
3811What wouldst thou?"
3811What''s all that firing off there to the left and farther on?"
3811What''s going on?"
3811What''s the news from Hooker, Harry?"
3811What''s your news?"
3811What, go to Jeb Stuart''s ball and not dance, when the fair and bright young womanhood of Virginia is present?
3811When they came up he had mounted, but he leaned over, and pointing a long finger in a buckskin glove in turn at each, he said:"Can you dance?"
3811Whence comest thou, Sir Knight of Nubia?
3811Where is General Meade?"
3811Where is he?"
3811Who art thou?
3811Who would not have hoped with such troops as his?
3811Why argue with a man who has fire on the brain?
3811Why did you sleep so long and so hard when we needed you so much?"
3811Why do you want to buy blankets on time when you can get them more cheaply by capturing them from the enemy?"
3811Why not?
3811Why should n''t I wear fine clothes if I want''em?
3811Why were the generals lingering when there was a battle to be finished?
3811Would he follow up the grand division of Franklin that he had defeated and which still lay in front of them?
3811Would he ride into battle clothed in it?
3811You''re the new Captain in our regiment, are you not?"
3811You, Mr. Kenton, I judge have been up all night dancing?"
3811he cried,"and where are the others?"
21321A fine piece of work,he said;"who wrote it-- you or Redfield?"
21321Advance? 21321 Advance?"
21321After all, why should the spirit of mortal be proud?
21321Ah, you do n''t? 21321 And have you found such a woman?"
21321And how can I help you now?
21321And if so ready to read an unspoken purpose in my mind, then why not read the cause of it?
21321And may I ask the name of this lady who knows more about my own house than I do?
21321And may I ask what is the gossip?
21321And that I am suffering from disappointment because the spy has not been found?
21321And the Secretary?
21321And those wishes are?
21321And what induced you to believe that I would betray her?
21321And what is that?
21321And what is the Mosaic Club?
21321And who am I, pray?
21321And who are you?
21321And you have become a great soldier?
21321And you have left Miss Grayson alone?
21321And you take the risk?
21321And you?
21321And, therefore, you believe everything he says is correct?
21321Are n''t you going to do it?
21321Are they genuine?
21321Are they not a salute for somebody?
21321Are we on doubtful ground?
21321Are you alone in that house?
21321Are you cold?
21321Are you going alone?
21321Are you just discovering that, at your age, mother?
21321Are you speaking of Miss Catherwood?
21321Are you thinking of Lucia Catherwood?
21321Are you, too, hit?
21321But Miss Catherwood, do you not fear for yourself? 21321 But do you stop to think what you are fighting for?"
21321But if you are not you will come?
21321But is n''t there some pain yet?
21321But is there a way?
21321But to return to the question of the spy,said Mr. Sefton, tenaciously,"have you really no opinion, Captain Prescott?
21321But what business is that of yours?
21321But what of Helen?
21321But you have not answered my question: is the Secretary married?
21321But you will some other time?
21321But you? 21321 By what right do you seek to direct my actions?"
21321Ca n''t you see? 21321 Can I see Miss Catherwood?"
21321Can the Colonel see me?
21321Captain Prescott,she asked,"why have you done so much for me?"
21321Confederate money?
21321Did Morgan bring any new recruits for General Lee''s army?
21321Did my tone imply criticism?
21321Do n''t I know that you, unaided, brought me to that house? 21321 Do n''t you hear that music?
21321Do n''t you hear the bell?
21321Do n''t you see that I am freezing on your doorstep?
21321Do n''t you want to make a respectable casualty?
21321Do you dispute the priority of my claim over Captain Prescott?
21321Do you know the luck I had yesterday when I tried to improve my toilet?
21321Do you know the way to Richmond?
21321Do you know what it is to sit in the dark and the cold when you love the warmth and the light and the music? 21321 Do you know what it is to stay in hiding-- to be confined within the four walls of one room?"
21321Do you know where this woman is, Captain Prescott?
21321Do you know, sir, that I belong to the Confederate Congress?
21321Do you know,said Talbot,"I begin to believe that Richmond would n''t amount to much of a town in the North?"
21321Do you know,she said,"that the Mosaic Club meets again to- night and perhaps for the last time?
21321Do you not know better than to leave Miss Grayson''s house, and, above all, to come to this place? 21321 Do you think I should have gone to all this trouble and touched upon so many springs merely to capture one misguided girl?
21321Do you think she needs all that protection?
21321Do you think so?
21321Do you want me to give you this property?
21321Do you wear such thin clothing as this out there in those cold forests?
21321Does either army mean to move?
21321Does it not then occur to you, Captain Prescott, that you are proceeding upon a very slender basis when you doubt my word?
21321Does n''t it seem strange that the dead cold of winter alone should mean peace nowadays?
21321Eh?
21321Following a woman?
21321For sale?
21321General, would you let gallantry override patriotism?
21321Gloves?
21321Gold or Confederate money?
21321Grayson, Charlotte Grayson?
21321Has Mr. Sefton been gone long?
21321Has anything more been heard of the stolen papers?
21321Has he ever hit anybody?
21321Has he learned anything more?
21321Have you noticed, Robert,she asked,"that we see complete victory for the South again?
21321Helen,he said,"go to the window, will you?"
21321How did you know that, mother?
21321How do you know that I want to return?
21321How do you know?
21321How do you propose going about it?
21321How happens it, mother,he asked,"that this food is still warm?
21321How is that-- no news?
21321How long do you think it is until daylight?
21321How long has it been since we won a great victory? 21321 How many of these people who are making so much noise have anything whatever to do with the war?"
21321How much for the lot?
21321How''s the_ Patriot_?
21321I am speaking to Miss Grayson?
21321I did n''t know you were that kind of a man, Bob,he said;"but what luck?"
21321I do n''t know; an hour, I suppose; why bother about it?
21321I wonder what it can mean?
21321I''ll give you seventy- five dollars cash or five hundred on a credit,said Talbot;"now which will you take?"
21321I, too, have leave of absence, Prescott,he said,"and what better could a man do than spend it in Richmond?"
21321I?
21321If a man have a power over a woman he loves, can you blame him if he use it to get that which he wishes?
21321If she would,repeated Prescott;"but will she?"
21321If you have won your heart''s desire why do you rail at fate?
21321If you love this young man, are you quite sure that he loves you?
21321In May?
21321Is Mr. Sefton a bachelor?
21321Is a woman who plays the part of a spy, a part that most men would scorn, entitled to much consideration?
21321Is it a funeral song?
21321Is it coming? 21321 Is it really over?"
21321Is it the custom of Southern gentlemen to accost ladies in this manner?
21321Is it true-- true that Lee has surrendered?
21321Is n''t it true, Prescott, that a man is always appreciated least by his own family?
21321Is n''t this world beautiful at times?
21321Is n''t war a glorious game?
21321Is she to be blamed for it?
21321Is that the name of a new sweetheart of yours, Robert?
21321Is the Government to have a victory whenever it asks for it, merely because it does ask for it?
21321Is this just a case of thumbs up and thumbs down?
21321It is Miss Grayson, is it not?
21321It is a pity----She stopped, and her son asked:"What is a pity, mother?"
21321It is a question of veracity between you and me, and are you prepared to say that you alone tell the truth?
21321It was true,he said,"that Sherman was before Atlanta, but what matter if he took it?
21321It''s true I was thinking of something else,replied Prescott with a smile,"and did not see what was about me; but how are you, General?"
21321May I take the reins?
21321May I walk a little with you, Captain Prescott?
21321Miss Catherwood is still here, is she not?
21321Miss Catherwood is still with you, is she not?
21321Mother, will you lend me an umbrella?
21321Mother,he asked presently,"was there not some one else in this room when I came in?
21321Mother,he said to her the next day as they sat before the fire,"did you ever hear of any lady named Miss Charlotte Grayson?"
21321Mr. Sefton,exclaimed Prescott angrily,"why should we fence with words any longer?
21321Neither now nor ever? 21321 Neither?"
21321Nor me?
21321Now what shall I call you?
21321Now?
21321Overshoes?
21321Say, old Johnny Reb,he asked,"what do you fellows want anyway?"
21321Shall we ever see each other again?
21321Shall we go now?
21321Shall we make the limit ten cents in coin or ten dollars Confederate money?
21321Shall we take this woman?
21321Should I not play my cards?
21321Should n''t a woman who does such things suffer punishment like a man?
21321Since that is your theory, my dear Captain, what motive would you assign?
21321So you''ve been in Richmond, Mr. Farmer; how long were you there?
21321The Secretary of what?
21321The Yankees are poor horsemen-- not to be compared with ours, are they, Miss Catherwood?
21321Then can you tell me, Mr. Prescott, why General Lee does not drive the Yankees out of Virginia?
21321Then what have you done with them?
21321Then why are you out here at such an hour, seeking to escape from Richmond?
21321Then why do you ask me such a fool question?
21321Then why do you espouse such a cause?
21321Then why have you held your hand?
21321Then you admit that it is true?
21321Then you call this a weakness and regret it?
21321Then you will make no promise?
21321There are many other women in Richmond,she replied,"and as they will not be in any greater danger than I, should I be less brave than they?"
21321There''s somebody else?
21321They complain that we should send them supplies and reinforcements, do they not?
21321To search it for what?
21321Unwomanly? 21321 Warm?"
21321Was it for such a reason that you gave me a pass to Richmond and helped me to come here?
21321Well, mother, what is the matter?
21321Well, sir?
21321Well?
21321What ails you, boy?
21321What are they doing these days up there on Shockoe?
21321What are you doing here?
21321What are you selling, Tom?
21321What business can she have with a man like Sefton?
21321What can it mean?
21321What do they mean by firing on us when we''re not bothering them?
21321What do those shots mean?
21321What do you do it for?
21321What do you intend to do now?
21321What do you mean by that?
21321What do you mean, mother?
21321What do you mean?
21321What do you mean?
21321What do you see there at the window?
21321What do you think of a fellow who would do such a thing?
21321What do you think of our chances of capture, Captain?
21321What do you want, Johnny Reb?
21321What does that noise mean?
21321What has he done for you?
21321What have you there?
21321What is it that you see?
21321What is it? 21321 What is it?"
21321What is it?
21321What is that?
21321What is that?
21321What is this bundle that you have?
21321What is your name?
21321What is your wish?
21321What of her?
21321What shall we do?
21321What signifies that? 21321 What then?"
21321What then?
21321What was it, Charlotte?
21321When did you arrive?
21321When do you think Grant will advance again?
21321When?
21321Where are you from, Elias, and what are you doing here?
21321Where are you going?
21321Where could one find a more brilliant scene than this?
21321Where have you been?
21321Where were you hidden that day my friend Talbot searched for you and I looked on?
21321Where were you hidden when we searched Miss Grayson''s house?
21321Which way shall we go?
21321Who are you?
21321Who could have thought it?
21321Who in Richmond has not heard of Miss Charlotte Grayson, the gallant champion of the Northern Cause and of the Union of the States forever? 21321 Who is Helen?"
21321Who is Helen?
21321Who is it to be, Miss Catherwood or Miss Harley?
21321Who is she-- and what is she? 21321 Who left it, mother?"
21321Who says so, mother?
21321Who, for instance?
21321Why am I here-- why am I here,he repeated,"when the greatest battle of all the world is being fought?"
21321Why are you here?
21321Why are you so silent, Captain Prescott?
21321Why do you come here?
21321Why do you insult me?
21321Why do you interest yourself in two poor lone women? 21321 Why do you study the Yankees so hard?"
21321Why do you, a Confederate officer, trouble yourself about a woman who, you say, has acted as a spy for the North?
21321Why do you?
21321Why have n''t you been to see us?
21321Why is the place so silent?
21321Why my friend rather than the friend of anybody else?
21321Why not speak it? 21321 Why not speak it?"
21321Why not, mother?
21321Why not? 21321 Why not?"
21321Why should I go out into the cold?
21321Why so grave, Prescott?
21321Why these conditions?
21321Why, what do you know of Miss Catherwood?
21321Why, what news have you?
21321Why, you do n''t think that we shall lose, do you?
21321Why?
21321Will all the city burn, Robert?
21321Will he win her?
21321Will he win her?
21321Will it profit me more to be killed in a decent uniform than in a ragged one?
21321Will three in the afternoon do? 21321 Will you care for her as if she were your own, your sister?"
21321Will you spare Miss Catherwood?
21321Will you wait here a moment in the wagon, Miss Catherwood, until I go to the top of the hill?
21321With good nursing?
21321Wo n''t you come, Lucia?
21321Wo n''t you explain yourself more clearly, mother?
21321Would you dare?
21321Would you like to hear what he''s saying?
21321Yes; why not?
21321You are going with the wounded to Richmond?
21321You are leaving?
21321You are safe now,she said, with the old touch of irony in her voice;"they will not find you here with me, so why do you linger?"
21321You ask why I kept this secret?
21321You have been comfortable here, mother?
21321You have said that you love me; do men make threats to the women whom they love?
21321You have?
21321You know him?
21321You live here?
21321You mean that so long as you were in Richmond my ruin was possible because I helped you?
21321You will come to see me again?
21321You will go with us? 21321 You will stay by me?"
21321You wish to know who is there?
21321You would not rob me, would you? 21321 Your brother?"
21321''I''d like to know what use a soldier has for money?''
21321''The price?''
21321''What''s that got to do with it?''
21321A goodly heritage, is it not?
21321After all, why should n''t she?
21321Again I ask you what kind of a man do you think I am?
21321Ai n''t your State the place where all they need is more water and better society, just the same as hell?"
21321Alone, I suppose?"
21321Am I responsible?
21321Am I to care for the safety of those who are fighting me?"
21321And is it not a just and kind Providence?"
21321And who were the ladies?
21321Are all the powers of the Confederate Government to be gathered for the purpose of making war on one poor lone woman?
21321Are we to belie those words?"
21321Are you a girl to refuse such liquor?"
21321Are you a mad woman?"
21321Are you not coming?"
21321Are you not on the side of the South?
21321Are you not venturing into danger again?"
21321Are you sure that he is worthy?"
21321But does our Government expect to make itself an oligarchy or despotism?
21321But how about affairs that are not private?
21321But what more of Helen, mother?
21321But who was winning now?
21321But whose cavalry?"
21321But, tell me, is it really true?
21321Ca n''t you forget my follies and remember at least the few good things that I have done?"
21321Can you do both?"
21321Could it be that a woman in such a position was laughing at the man who had helped her?
21321Could the heart of the Secretary have followed the course of his own?
21321Death?
21321Did he mean to cast some slur upon his conduct?
21321Did it not mean that she and the Secretary had become allies more than friends?
21321Did n''t you see how hard he was thinking back there?"
21321Did the Secretary know, or were his words mere chance?
21321Did you ever before hear of such soldiers?"
21321Did you never think how hard it was for women to sit with their hands folded, waiting for this war to end?"
21321Do I not know that I am in a hostile city?"
21321Do n''t you hear it?
21321Do n''t you know, Captain Prescott, that Grant will never turn back?
21321Do n''t you see it, I say?"
21321Do n''t you see what is coming?
21321Do n''t you see?"
21321Do you ever think, Robert, what such questions as these, so simple in peace, mean now to Richmond?"
21321Do you know anything about her?"
21321Do you know how long we have been here watching?"
21321Do you not remember when they wished to arrest her, and Lieutenant Talbot searched the cottage for her?
21321Do you not see that I love you?
21321Do you realize that we are fighting against the tide, or, to put it differently, against the weight of all the ages?
21321Do you suppose that I would accept such a proposition?
21321Do you suppose that such an event as this would escape the notice of a servant?
21321Do you think I have come so far to turn back now?"
21321Do you think that you alone were made for enjoyment?"
21321Do you think the result of a great war and the fate of a continent are to be decided by a pair of dark eyes?"
21321For what purpose?
21321Frankly, Captain Prescott, what kind of a man do you think I am?"
21321Had any one been seen with her?
21321Had he suffered from the cold?
21321Have you actually gone to work-- as a clerk in an office, like a low- born Northern woman?"
21321Have you ever thought how unstable may prove this Southern Confederacy for which we are spending so much blood?"
21321He had no intention of scolding her, but his thought was:"Has any other man a mother like mine?"
21321He understood the look in her eyes and replied:"You mean that Grant will come?"
21321He waves his hand and says:''Why are they not here for me?''
21321He''s just drawn from one hat the words''Daddy Longlegs''and from the other''What sort of shoe was made on the last of the Mohicans?''
21321How can honest men fight for it?"
21321How could I, a woman, do such a thing?"
21321How could he believe her now?
21321How many great battles is this since they met first in the Wilderness?"
21321How much did he know, if anything?
21321How will you get back into Richmond?"
21321I ask you once more how many men did General Morgan bring with him?"
21321I believe that you distinguished yourself in the great charge at Gettysburg?"
21321If I happen to hold in my hand certain cards which chance has not dealt to you, can you blame me if I play them?"
21321If Lucia should turn to some one else why might not he do the same?
21321If that is so, I should like to know what we are fighting for?"
21321If their names were not known, could not a description of their appearance be given?
21321If they were going to fight again, why not wait until the next day?
21321If you impair the public faith in us how can we accomplish anything?"
21321Is Mr. Sefton as attentive as ever to his clerk?"
21321Is he badly hurt?"
21321Is it not singular that such a message should have been delivered by your son?
21321Is it really coming to- day, under these skies so peaceful and beautiful?"
21321Is n''t he, Helen?"
21321It is very low and degrading, is n''t it?"
21321It makes a question spring up in my mind, and that question is, how did you get it?
21321Markham?"
21321Mother, what do you mean?"
21321Prescott crawled again from his wagon and said to her as she passed:"Why do you avoid me, Miss Catherwood?"
21321Prescott waited until he was out of hearing before he said:"Do you like that man, Miss Catherwood?"
21321Prescott was startled a little, but he hid his surprise under a calm voice when he asked:"What is this clue, or is it a secret?"
21321President?"
21321Sefton?"
21321Sefton?"
21321Sefton?"
21321Sefton?"
21321Shall we let it be an armed peace for the present?"
21321She was silent for a little while, and then Prescott said:"Now will you answer a question of mine?"
21321She was tall and strong, but was it so much strength and endurance as love and sacrifice?
21321Talbot?"
21321That was the reason she had given to herself and others-- but was it the whole reason?
21321The boy began in a mechanical voice as of one who reads:"General Lee surrendered to General Grant to- day----""What''s that?"
21321Then Wood dismounted, threw his bridle over his arm and said:"S''pose we go along together for awhile?"
21321Then what do you think?"
21321Then why not keep her near?
21321There was a laugh, and Mrs. Markham asked:"Do you mean the second of your reasons as truth or as a mere compliment to my sex?"
21321To be with Miss Grayson, her next of kin, and because she had no other place?
21321Was he to be assigned to some particularly hard duty?
21321Was it possible those two had a secret in common?
21321Was not Providence kind to me?
21321Was she seeking to arouse him to greater vigour in his suit?
21321Was the love he bore her to be thrown aside for a price?
21321Was there a tall woman with a brown cloak among them?
21321Well, why not?
21321What chance did the South ever have?
21321What could the Secretary be to her?
21321What did it matter if she was a Northern girl and a spy?
21321What did it mean?
21321What do I hear?
21321What do I hear?"
21321What do you think of it, Captain Prescott?"
21321What do you think of it, Captain?"
21321What does it mean?"
21321What had become of Miss Catherwood?
21321What harm can she do us?
21321What is that something?
21321What right did he have to accuse her?
21321What right had she among these people who were not hers?
21321What was that?
21321What were the Yankees, anyway, but a leaderless horde?
21321What would Talbot say, he thought, if he were to tell him that this was the girl for whom he had searched Miss Grayson''s house?
21321What would be its fate?
21321What would his comrades say of him if they caught him here?
21321What, then, becomes the duty of the people of Richmond in view of the mighty conflict at hand?
21321Where did she come from?
21321Where has Helen gone to work?"
21321Where was she now?
21321Which way does it lie, Robert?"
21321Who was losing, who was winning out there beyond the veil of the forest where the pall of smoke rose?
21321Who was she who had come with the other army, and why should she be there?
21321Who was she, why was she here, and what would be her fate?
21321Who''ll buy?
21321Who''ll buy?
21321Whom else could I ask?"
21321Why do you try to help them?"
21321Why had not General Lee given some hint of its contents?
21321Why had she come back to Richmond, from which she had escaped amid such dangers?
21321Why not let me go now?"
21321Why should I ruin you?
21321Why should I think it?"
21321Why should he be influenced by the idle words of some idle man in the street?
21321Why should he trouble himself about her?
21321Why should it?
21321Why should she seek now to save Prescott?
21321Why should you risk yourself?"
21321Why?"
21321Will you permit me to say that I think it indiscreet?"
21321With that army which hung like a thunder cloud on their front?
21321Would they fight again at such a time?
21321Would they not, Captain Prescott?"
21321Would you ruin her here, as you can do, where she has so many friends, and where it is possible for her life to be happy?"
21321You adhere to your refusal?"
21321You can stay with him, I suppose?
21321You mean that coal and wood are scarce and money still scarcer?"
21321You promise?"
21321You wish to protect me-- does a man marry a woman merely to protect her?
21321exclaimed Prescott passionately,"have you nothing to say to me?
21321she said,"What is to become of you?"
5390All right?
5390And now,said Stephen,"why do they not keep their hold?"
5390And was it not hard to leave?
5390Are you one of them flip Chicagy reporters?
5390Because why?
5390Because you ai n''t had no education: What does a rail- sputter like Abe know about this government? 5390 Bob,"said Mr. Lincoln,"can you elucidate the problem of the three bodies?"
5390Boys,he asked,"did I ever tell you about Sam''l, the old Quaker''s apprentice?"
5390Boys,said he,"did you ever hear the story of farmer Bell, down in Egypt?
5390But see here, Abe,said Mr. Medill, as soon as ever he got his breath,"what have we got to show for it?
5390But you admired him?
5390Can you tell me where Mr. Lincoln lives?
5390Come, Mr. Stephen,said Mr. Lincoln, presently,"where do you hail from?"
5390Did n''t the Judge get Mr, Lincoln''s message?
5390Do you know what was in that note? 5390 Do you think he would see me?"
5390Has he given you the points of Water Witch and Netty Boone?
5390Has he told you what a jockey Ned used to be before he weighed one hundred and a quarter?
5390Is the Judge a friend of yours, sir?
5390Is the Judge the same old criss- cross, contrary, violent fool that he always was?
5390Is you got all you need, suh?
5390Joe,said Mr. Lincoln,"did you ever hear Warfield''s definition of an Old Line Whig?"
5390Miss Carvel was here, you say?
5390Mr. Stephen,said he,"would you like to come to Freeport with me to- morrow and hear the debate?"
5390Not black,came from the crowd again and again, and once a man: shouted,"Could n''t you modify it and call it brown?"
5390Schlager fights?
5390Sonny,he said,"did you want to see me?"
5390Sonny,said Mr. Lincoln again,"did you want to see me?"
5390Stephen,he said suddenly,"you do not share the prejudice against us here?"
5390Suppose he does answer yes, that slavery can be excluded?
5390The Turner Halls?
5390Until the Judge came?
5390Wal, young man,said he,"who be you lookin''for here?"
5390Was myself? 5390 Well, sir, well, sir,"he said,"you''ve turned up at last, have you?
5390Whar be you from?
5390What do you reckon Sam''l said, Judge?
5390What''s that? 5390 Where is he?"
5390Who? 5390 Why do you go in this afternoon?"
5390Why do you suppose that you were sent to Springfield?
5390Why should I?
5390Why?
5390Will you read the rest of that speech?
5390You are a little behind your time, my friend,said he,"What has happened you?"
5390You called?
5390You mean to say, as the candidate of the Republican party, you do n''t care whether you get to the Senate?
5390''What are you here for?''
5390Ai n''t you had no supper?
5390And he added, outs of force of habit,"Can you give me a room?"
5390And then,"What was it?"
5390And what do you think was the subject?
5390And why are we spending our time and money on you?"
5390And, instead of a discussion of the campaign with the other gentlemen, Mr. Lincoln was defending what do you think?
5390Brice?"
5390Brice?"
5390Brice?"
5390Brice?"
5390But Mammy showed no inclination to go, and he was too polite to shut the door:"How you like Glencoe, Mistah Bride?"
5390But how to reach it?
5390But perceiving his host still contemplating him, he was emboldened to say:"Has Mr. Lincoln gone to bed?"
5390But quick,--to the Question, How was the Little Giant, artful in debate as he was, to get over that without offence to the great South?
5390But stay, what is this wagon with the high sapling flagstaff in the middle, and the leaves still on it?
5390But what was this feeling that gradually crept over him?
5390But who is this, erect, compact, aggressive, searching with a confident eye the wilderness of upturned faces?
5390Could this awkward, yellow man with his hands behind his back be he whom he had worshipped?
5390Could this shrill falsetto be the same voice to which he had listened only that morning?
5390Did n''t you feel sorry for me last night?"
5390Did you ever hear of Water Witch and Netty Boone?"
5390Do you know who he is?"
5390Do you understand, sir?"
5390Dost thou mind?''"
5390Had Richter ever heard of Lincoln?
5390Had he been wise in deciding before he had taught a glimpse of the accomplished Douglas, whose name end fame filled the land?
5390Had the Lord ever before made and set over against each other two such different men?
5390Have you heard from him to- day, Carl?"
5390He talks in his sleep, just as you do--""And what is he saying?"
5390How was he to know that thousands of his countrymen were to experience the same sensation?
5390How were you to foresee a certain day under the White Dome of the Capitol?
5390Lincoln?"
5390Lincoln?"
5390Louis?"
5390Mr. Brice, do you feel like walking?"
5390Mr. Carvel reached for another cigar asked,"My dear,"he asked,"how is the Judge?"
5390No?
5390Old Abe, at half- past ten?
5390Say, young man, did you ever hear of Stephen Arnold Douglas, alias the Little Giant, alias the Idol of our State, sir?"
5390Stephen was determined to be affable and kind, and( shall we say it?)
5390Stephen?"
5390Supper, young man?
5390Surprise?
5390Terrible suspicion for a Bostonian,--had he been carried away?
5390There was a chorus of"No''s"and"Go ahead, Abe?"
5390Too bran new for old St. Louis, eh?"
5390Was he not among his own Northern Democrats at Freeport?
5390Was his hero, after all, a homespun demagogue?
5390Was it the slap on the back that opened Stephen''s eyes?
5390What did you think of me when you saw me to- night?"
5390What do they think of our new Republican party?
5390What was Germany then?
5390What''s that, Franklin?
5390Where do you come in?"
5390Why was it that he walked to the station with a heavy heart?
5390Would you believe that, Mr. Brice?
5390Would you like any more?"
5390and"Ai n''t he wicked?"
5390asked Mr. Medill, reflecting the sheer astonishment of the others;"then why the devil are you wearing yourself out?
5390cried the Judge,"so far from Boston?"
5390exclaimed Mr. Lincoln,"did n''t he tell you he was?"
5390grunted Mr. Whipple,"and what did you chink of that ruffian, Lincoln?"
5390what is this man about whom you despise?
6811Did you know, Mr. Speaker, I am a military hero? 6811 Does this pay for the book,"the borrower asked,"or only for the damage to the book?"
6811How tedious and tasteless the hours,"There is a fountain filled with blood,and"Alas, and did my Saviour bleed?"
6811McClellan was retired,says the Honorable Hugh McCulloch,"and what happened to the Army of the Potomac?
6811What does the clergyman know of military matters?
6811Why?
6811''But,''said I,''does Mr. Buchanan know for what purpose you are going to North Carolina?''
6811''Where is your room?''
6811''Will you take us and our trunks out to the steamer?''
6811A succeeding question was no less important: Who shall take his place?
6811According to Noah Brooks he said to some friends:"I suppose you have seen this letter or a copy of it?"
6811After adjournment the judge asked him,"What was that story of Lincoln''s?"
6811After another pause:"Does n''t it appear strange that men can ignore the moral aspects of this contest?
6811And if I do my duty and do right, you will sustain me, will you not?"
6811And yet people ask, where did Lincoln get the majesty, the classic simplicity and elegance of his Gettysburg address?
6811As the end came in sight an awkward question arose, What shall we do with Jeff Davis-- if we catch him?
6811At Indianapolis he asked pregnant questions:"What, then, is''coercion''?
6811At Washington that night some one asked,"Who is this man Lincoln, anyhow?"
6811At the conclusion of the ceremony, the President- elect demanded:"What''s your height?"
6811But a far more important question is, What use does he make of his ability to read?
6811But what next?
6811C''est moi!_""The state?
6811Can we not come together for the future?
6811Can you do it?"
6811Concerning the clause above italicised there was a general questioning,--Does he mean what he says?
6811Did Lincoln really think the rebellion could be put down in three months?
6811Did it give him nothing?
6811Does he read"books that are books?"
6811H. W. Beecher: Who shall recount our martyr''s sufferings for this people?
6811Had the question been asked early in 1861, Who will be the real force of the republican administration?
6811He sat with his face in his hands and groaned:"Happy?
6811How does_ demonstration_ differ from any other proof?
6811I said to myself, What do I do when I_ demonstrate_ more than when I_ reason_ or_ prove_?
6811If Abraham Lincoln got his remarkable character from parents or grandparents, from whom did he get his physical stature?
6811Lincoln shouted"Who''s there?"
6811Lincoln?"
6811People have asked, in a puzzled manner, why did he leave the beautiful Shenandoah valley?
6811Somehow, we know not how, the poem"Oh, why should the spirit of mortal be proud?"
6811That raised the inquiry, What was their understanding of the question?
6811The conversation embraced plans of living-- in Chicago?
6811The laconic conversation which took place between the President and the general has been reported about as follows:--"What do you want me to do?"
6811The question will naturally be raised, Why should there be another Life of Lincoln?
6811The question with his opponents then was, Who is most likely to carry these states?
6811This being the case, gentlemen, how would it do for us to agree to a change like this?
6811This comparison with Pericles is certainly high praise, but is it not true?
6811This may be met by a counter question, Will there ever be a time in the near future when there will_ not_ be another Life of Lincoln?
6811Those which are mentioned are,"Am I a soldier of the cross?"
6811To appoint Mr. Chase Secretary of the Treasury, and offer the State department to Mr. Dayton of New Jersey?
6811Undoubtedly; but what of the sixth and seventh generations?
6811Very true; but are there no more Darwins?
6811Was there ever a more thorough student?
6811What is''invasion''?...
6811What mysterious right to play tyrant is conferred on a district of country, with its people, by merely calling it a state?
6811What was going on in congress?
6811What were the defects of this remarkable man?
6811What were the reasons for his apparent carelessness?
6811When one becomes interested in a boy, one is almost certain to ask, Whose son is he?
6811When they reached the street the question arose, Where shall we take him?
6811Where did Mozart get his music?
6811Where did Shakespeare get his genius?
6811Where did he come from?
6811Where did he get his grasp upon affairs and his knowledge of men?
6811Where did he get his style?
6811Whose hand smote the lyre of the Scottish plowman, and stayed the life of the German priest?
6811Why did he not save infinite trouble by calling for five- year enlistments at the beginning?
6811Will you not, for me, take that place?"
6811what will the country say?"
6811where did they come from?
6811who exclaimed,"_ L''etat?
6811who were his parents?
15402''Bijah? 15402 ''How dared you?''
15402''The letter?'' 15402 ''This?''
15402''Why,''said the Captain,--''why, any more from the North than from the South?''
15402''Will you write the letter?'' 15402 Ah, Miss Sallie, is it you?
15402Ah, you''ve come to yourself, have you? 15402 Ambitious?"
15402And this black man,--what of him? 15402 And what may that be?"
15402And where did you come from?--no, you need n''t look back there again,--I mean, where did you and the boat too come from?
15402And why stay? 15402 And will heed?"
15402Anything to get out of town? 15402 Are Mrs. Lancaster and Miss Ercildoune not in?"
15402Are you aching for the martyr''s palm?
15402Are you hungry?
15402As clown or grindstone?--to make laugh, or sharpen your wits upon?
15402As with what?
15402Ask me no more: what answer should I give? 15402 At the same engines, and the like, do you mean?"
15402Aunt Alice,said Francesca a few days after that,"can you go to New York this afternoon or to- morrow morning?"
15402Because why? 15402 Better?"
15402But they left a note, perhaps,--or some message?
15402Can you sing it, and mean it with all your heart, for me?
15402Come, now, are you hungry?
15402Cynical?
15402Did n''t you go in pursuit of a dead man?
15402Did the dead man convert you?
15402Did you ever read about the man who was told that the facts did not sustain his theory, and of his sublime answer? 15402 Did you suppose that he loved you sufficiently to destroy''an invincible barrier?''"
15402Did you think fate would be more merciful to you than to others?
15402Did_ he_ help you to behold it; to discover, or to remember it? 15402 Do n''t what?"
15402Do you know when?
15402Do you know you were reported mortally wounded? 15402 Do you mean it?"
15402Do you see the barrier now?
15402Does any one know aught of Miss Ercildoune''s family save that Mrs. Lancaster is her aunt?
15402Does he love you?
15402Done? 15402 Echo of nothingness?"
15402Ercildoune? 15402 Far from here?"
15402Feel? 15402 Forget?
15402Franklin?
15402Freedmen?
15402From what depot did they leave?
15402Get rid of it,mused Jim,"how in thunder''ll I get rid of it if I do n''t hear from Sallie?
15402Given?
15402Good morning, Miss Sallie,says he,"how are you?
15402Got any objection to telling a lie?
15402Had n''t you sense enough to see they could keep the whole of it, and nobody the wiser? 15402 Has Snipe been round?"
15402Have any of you seen the Fifty- fourth?
15402He is cleanly?
15402Her right to remain?
15402Hey?
15402Homely? 15402 How am I to know what they thought?
15402I guess thee is sorry now that thee did n''t keep out of it, is n''t thee?
15402I may see you there?
15402I say, Captain, I''ve heard that some of your ancestors were Indians: is that so?
15402I say, ca n''t you?
15402I say, how came you to be starved? 15402 I-- how should I know?
15402Intelligent?
15402Irritable?
15402Is he there now?
15402Is it allowable, then, to ask why he was discarded?
15402Is it rude to ask if your father was the same? 15402 Is it so?"
15402Is that efficacious?
15402It was there you lost your arm?
15402It was there you were last wounded?
15402Met him anywhere?
15402Miss Howard''s traps done?
15402Miss-- Miss-- what''s her name? 15402 Mr. Ercildoune,"said he, aloud,"you know something of me?
15402Mrs. Lancaster goes back to England soon?
15402Name?
15402No matter,he said to himself;"it''ll be all well, or forgotten, at least, when I see Sallie once more; and so, what odds?"
15402No? 15402 No?
15402No?
15402Nor none of the foremen?
15402Not about the eyes?
15402Not exactly; Lieutenant Hunt was drowned somewhere, was n''t he?
15402Now, sir, what do you want?
15402O Frankie, do n''t I?
15402O Miss Ercildoune, will you let me do your work at your own home? 15402 O sis,_ do n''t_ you wish Jim would come home?"
15402O, he did n''t, hey? 15402 O, that''s it, is it?
15402Of course: Aunt Mina''s son-- what''s his name?--is a sort of_ protà © gà ©_ of yours, I believe: what of him?
15402Oh, why did you ask me? 15402 One?
15402Papa,she said, without looking up,"you wanted me?"
15402Respectable?
15402Rich, is he? 15402 Right straight away?
15402Rough?
15402Say it all over again, sonny; what was it you told him?
15402See anything peculiar about it?
15402She is to sing, do you know?
15402She? 15402 Should you think so to look at her now?"
15402Sorry? 15402 Spoiled, am I?
15402Stop that infernal noise, will you?
15402Suppose I did,--what then?
15402Suppose you are an atom against the universe?
15402Thank you, Jim, for the compliment; but come, you are n''t going to say that nature has n''t placed a barrier between these people and us? 15402 The matther, is it?
15402The reason?
15402Thee has on the army blue; has thee been fighting any?
15402There''s nigger for you,broke out Jim,"what''n thunder''d they mean by such gibberish as that?"
15402This afternoon?
15402This afternoon?
15402This big fellow is abusing and devouring a poor little chap, eh? 15402 This captain,--what''s his name?"
15402This? 15402 Undoubtedly true, Mr. Greenleaf,"answered the neighbor,"but what caused the remark?"
15402Want?
15402Was it now? 15402 Was that you howling a while ago,''Roll Jordan,''or something?"
15402We are a handsome couple,laughed Jim, holding back her face between both hands,--"ain''t we, now?"
15402Well, Given, do you like the darkies well enough to take off your cap to them?
15402Well, massa, ye see I saw mighty quick I was in for a lie anyhow, so I said,''Is massa at home?'' 15402 Well, why by the devil have n''t you had something else then?
15402Well?
15402Well?
15402What are you asking, Willie?
15402What are you driving at now, hey?
15402What are you driving at?
15402What are you making such a devil of a row for, I''d like to know? 15402 What brought you here?
15402What did he say to that?
15402What do you call this fellow?
15402What does she mean by getting off such rampant discourses? 15402 What is this you were joking about with him, a while ago?"
15402What is wrong with you? 15402 What manner of fellow?"
15402What next?
15402What sort of a lie?
15402What''s good?
15402What''s his name?
15402What''s the matter with him? 15402 What''s the matter with the berth?"
15402What''s the matter?
15402What''s this?
15402What''s up?
15402What''s what, mother?
15402What''s wrong?
15402What, not call yourself an Injun,--when your great- grandmother was one? 15402 What?"
15402When? 15402 Where''d you come from?"
15402Where''s your pass, sirrah?
15402Whereabouts?
15402Which I am to afford?
15402Which has failed?
15402Which?--the words or the acts of my counsellor? 15402 Whither away?"
15402Whittier? 15402 Who is Sallie Howard?"
15402Who is she? 15402 Who, indeed?"
15402Why, Given, did n''t you say yourself that she was an octoroon, or some such thing?
15402Why, how should that be?
15402Why, what is it to you?
15402Why? 15402 Why?"
15402Will I never learn that? 15402 Will he practise?"
15402Will this do?
15402Would I?--O would n''t I? 15402 Would they work_ with_ him?"
15402Ye----, what are ye doin''here? 15402 Yes,--do you know him?"
15402You comprehend all that I mean?
15402You have counted all the consequences? 15402 You know me?"
15402You know the Franklins?
15402You think so?
15402_ Pourquoi_?
15402''Do you think he would continue to do so if he knew what you are?''
15402''I bear''--what is it?
15402''In War- Time''?
15402''What need of a letter?
15402--a pause--"won''t you get me some ice- cream this evening?"
15402--what does it mean?"
15402--what does the child mean?
15402--with a quick laugh,--"what could have made you think so?
15402A sudden heat flushed her cheeks:"Do you tell me your father made room for a black man in his employ, and at the expense of a white one?"
15402Abijah, hey?
15402Ai n''t I glad to see you?
15402Ai n''t you ashamed of yourself having such a thing round?
15402Am I cross?"
15402Am I stating it all correctly?"
15402And yet it ca n''t be that,--what were the first words I ever heard from her mouth?"
15402And yet-- once more-- only once?
15402And you do n''t know me at all,--don''t you?
15402And''ll you do it?"
15402Anna E. Dickinson 1868 WHAT ANSWER?
15402Any objection?"
15402Are you ready to listen?"
15402Are you ready?"
15402At last he said,"Father, will you never forego this cruel prejudice?"
15402At least, they hold forth a bribe to secure me?
15402Aye, might they not?
15402Bad enough, being dead, to yet speak, and tell''em that paper did n''t represent my politics:''d that do?"
15402Believing so, may I beg a favor of you?
15402Blasting his career, will your love fill the gap?
15402Both feeling and knowing this, who so fit to yield and to do for such a cause?
15402Brooks, back again?"
15402But may I ask where you saw mine?
15402But what about your paragon?"
15402But what are they?
15402But what connection has that with your expedition?"
15402CHAPTER XVIII"_ Will the future come?
15402Ca n''t I go with you, Miss Ercildoune?"
15402Can I serve you in any way further?"
15402Can you send it up to- morrow?"
15402Come, Sallie, own up; you would n''t like me so well as I hope you do if it was,--now, would you?"
15402Come, now, ai n''t it?"
15402Come, now, what do you call yourself,--an Injun?"
15402Come, what''s your story?
15402Did you know, Francesca?"
15402Do you judge by the past?
15402Dost hear?"
15402E.?"
15402Ercildoune,--from Philadelphia, you say?"
15402Go to her looking like such a guy?
15402Had a special despatch from him, that you know all about it?
15402Had enough?"
15402Hai''n''t they nothing but roots and berries up your way?
15402Has Mr. Surrey been saying anything hard to you?"
15402Has she been quarrelling with that young lover of hers, or refusing him?
15402Have you done so?"
15402Have you voted?"
15402Help a fellow?"
15402How about that?"
15402How am I ever to get on with my narrative, if you keep interrupting me in this style?
15402How and when will it be closed?
15402How and when would they see him again?
15402How are you to know?
15402How could it be otherwise?
15402How dared he?
15402How passed the long night with that half- insensible soul?
15402How''d you feel if you were picked up dead by a reb, with that stuff in your pocket?
15402How, indeed, should you be able?
15402How_ do_ you do?
15402Hunt''s Sam?"
15402I am greedy, I know, but then how can I help it?"
15402I fought against it strong; do you know why?"
15402I never thought of that before,--it''s the reason you and I have got on so swimmingly,--is it not, now?
15402I say, Johnny, are all the white men down your way such little shavers as you?"
15402I then cried, for astonishment had given place to rage,''how dared you deceive me-- deceive us all-- so?
15402I want a young lady to know that I''m wounded in the arm,--you see?
15402Instinct, hey?
15402Is it universal?"
15402Is n''t it?"
15402Is she the_ lady_ upon whom Surrey has been bestowing his--?"
15402It will be pleasant at Tanglewood over the Sabbath,--unless you have some engagements to keep you here?"
15402Jim grinned sardonically:"She is rather pretty, now,--ain''t she?"
15402Know him,--don''t I, though?
15402Looks like a''nigger wench,''do n''t she?"
15402Meanwhile what of Francesca?
15402Meanwhile, what was occurring to others, in other scenes and among other surroundings?
15402Meanwhile, where was Miss Ercildoune?
15402Might she not have changed?
15402Might they not?
15402Need I tell you how this pains me?
15402No,--you could n''t do that?
15402Now I shall query once more, who is she?"
15402Now these girls do n''t make a great noise, yet you can distinguish every word,--can''t you?"
15402Now what is it?
15402Now,"taking off his tin and looking towards them,"what d''ye s''pose those anemiles want?
15402O, Miss Perry played that last thing very well for a school- girl, eh?"
15402Perhaps-- Would you go away from here?"
15402Pretty?"
15402Put him out, ca n''t ye?"
15402Ruining his life, can your affection make amends?
15402Sallie did not know what to make of the expression of the face that watched her, nor of the exclamation,"Why not?
15402See her?
15402She caught Surrey''s hand between both of hers with a delighted cry:"Is it you, Mr. Willie?
15402She is the same now as then; should I love her the less?
15402She knew in this mood there was nothing to be said to him; and, indeed, what had she to say save that which would add fuel to the flame?
15402Some ob de darkies is, but we''s not dem kind,--Jim an''me,--we''s willin''to work, ai n''t we, Jim?"
15402Something''s wrong with you; who is she?"
15402Taking all this from him, what will you give him in return?
15402Taking up a piece at random, without pausing to remember the words, he said, spreading it before her,"May I tax you a little farther?
15402That''s sound, is n''t it?
15402The man whom you struck down this morning is one of our neighbors; you saw and heard his brutal assault: are you ready to face more of the like kind?
15402The men were no cowards, and the captain was brave enough; but what could they do?
15402Then, turning to Sam, who stood waiting, demanded,"Well, have you got it?"
15402There: do you see that elegant- looking lady talking with Professor Hale?
15402These creatures,--what are they?
15402This is our time to wipe off a thousand stigmas of contempt and reproach: this"--"Who is responsible for them?
15402Very well, then I''ll say good night, and leave; for it would n''t be proper to take a young lady you do n''t know to the theatre,--now, would it?
15402WHAT ANSWER?
15402Was it that the sun was going down, or that some clouds were in the sky, or had the air of the shop oppressed him?
15402Well, sir, it''s agen nature,--you may talk agen it, and work agen it, and fight agen it till all''s blue, and what good''ll it do?
15402Well,''Bijah, how came you two to be looking like a couple of animated skeletons?
15402What ails you?"
15402What are you laughing at?
15402What cast them there?
15402What could he say?
15402What could it mean?
15402What could there be in that little blue thing to cause such emotion?
15402What could this black man, or this matter, be to her?
15402What did he say?
15402What did she think of me?
15402What do_ you_ want to see Jim for?"
15402What else had he expected?
15402What folly possesses me?
15402What hand, however tender, could be laid on such a wound as this?
15402What have you got to say to that?"
15402What held him silent?
15402What in thunder did you bring the damned Copperhead sheet to me for, if you did n''t want it smashed?
15402What is it you want?"
15402What is there for you?"
15402What of the other?
15402What special phase of it has been disturbing your equanimity?"
15402What visions passed before them?
15402What was it?
15402What was it?
15402What was it?"
15402What was this something?
15402What''s his name, d''ye know?"
15402When I got him quiet, and came back, Mrs. Lee says,"What''s the matter with Frank?"
15402Where did that go?"
15402Where were the arguments he had planned, the entreaties he had purposed?
15402Who is he?
15402Who is she,--do you know?"
15402Who''s been putting on you to- day?
15402Who, indeed, of your friends would not be?"
15402Why did n''t you offer it yourself then?"
15402Why should he?"
15402Why--?"
15402Will you not help me to it?"
15402Will you please to speak to him, sir?
15402Would n''t I pummel him some?
15402You know nothing of_ him_?"
15402You think so?
15402You think this should cut off all hope?"
15402You understand what my errand was?"
15402_ can_ I love you, my beauty?
15402about turning abolitionist?"
15402ai n''t it a dreadful long walk, sonny?"
15402an instinct that repels an Anglo- Saxon from a negro always and everywhere?"
15402and how did it happen?"
15402and of course they could n''t have supposed any one was coming after it,--could they?
15402and the chap''s black?"
15402and then, so low that even Sallie could not hear,"You suffer, too: do we all suffer, then?"
15402are you certain?"
15402are you ill, Francesca?"
15402as he added after listening awhile;"do n''t you think so, Surrey?"
15402at least, if they make no apology for the past, they offer compensation for the future?
15402at least, they bid high for the services they desire?
15402by the signs of to- day?
15402could that do harm?
15402cried Whittlesly, from the other side of his Colonel;"what are you driving at?
15402cried the irate Virginian, his anger loosening his tongue,"want?
15402did he, or did he not?"
15402did he, this black man,--did he not do his work well?"
15402do n''t that nagur think himself foine?''
15402do you fancy England so very fascinating?"
15402do you know him?"
15402do you suppose she saw you at the window?
15402exclaimed John Bull,--"worse than the North?"
15402exclaimed the old Friend,--"do my eyes deceive me?"
15402he added presently,"eat like cannibals, do n''t they?
15402he called,"that''s Bertie Curtis, ai n''t it?"
15402he said when he seed me,''whar you cum from?
15402he thought,"what sick fancies and sentimental nonsense possess me?
15402he thought;"what does she mean by that?
15402how and when will it be closed?"
15402how control the beatings of his heart, the passion of his soul, that no sign should escape to wound or offend her?
15402how do you know he''s rich?"
15402how find words to speak the measured feelings of a friend?
15402how shall I bear it?
15402how shall I ever be able to thank you?"
15402how?
15402if you meet any''Lincoln vandals,''just give them my respects, will you?"
15402interrupted Jim,--"what d''ye do then?"
15402is it so?"
15402is she the least little bit mad?
15402it is Mr. Will, then, is it?
15402long ago?
15402looking at the little one,--"by the way, what''s your name?"
15402may I entreat that you will induce her to see me, if only for a little while?"
15402might she not have struggled for the mastery of this feeling with only too certain success?
15402of course it was the room,--didn''t she say she was ill?
15402of my position and prospects?"
15402our own actions?
15402ourselves?
15402philanthropic?"
15402protest, for instance?"
15402quoting my own words against me?"
15402responded the doctor, coming over to him,"what''s the go now?
15402said Surrey softly,"does it not seem easy now to die?"
15402school yonder,--well situated?"
15402she queried, looking down on it,--''this?''
15402so I told her I did n''t know,--but would she see him?
15402soliloquized Given,--"my name, hey?
15402spoke up a well- dressed man, with the air and manner of a gentleman,"what does that card say?"
15402streak like lightning, will you, to the''Merchants''?
15402this her?"
15402to a fine, frank- looking young fellow,--"and were you successful?"
15402what ails you?"
15402what are you gassing about?"
15402what cause, then, for mournful scrutiny?
15402what could he say?
15402what could there have been in that talk to have such an effect as I have conjured up?
15402what d''ye mean, coming here starved to death, making a fellow sick to look at you?
15402what did you come for?"
15402what do?
15402what does that signify?
15402what had I done that he should believe me such a thing as that?
15402what has he done?"
15402what now, young''un?"
15402what shadows of the life she inspected darkened them?
15402what shall I do?
15402what warrant or guarantee have you for any such future?
15402what''ll such fellows as you do with freedom, hey?"
15402what''s all this?"
15402what''s this nasty nagur doin''here?
15402what''s to pay now?"
15402what''ve you been doing with yourselves for''long while''?
15402where did he grow?"
15402where did she come from?
15402where the words with which he was to tell his tale, combat her refusal, win her to a willing and happy assent?
15402where?
15402whispering it, and snuggling her blushing face closer to the faded blue,"can you love me after all that has happened?"
15402who knows?
15402why did I let you come?"
15402why do n''t you bind him over to keep the peace?"
15402why should n''t I?"
15402why, Francesca, is it so hateful to you?
15402worse?"
15402you''re in time to hear the confession, are you?"
15402your great- grandmother, eh?
25886''Hail, Columbia?''
25886Absurd, child? 25886 Again?--so soon?"
25886And so you gave me the slip? 25886 And when I tell you that I am the intimate friend of your brother Owen?"
25886Are you a minister of the gospel?
25886Are you a pilot?
25886Are you going to kill him?
25886Are you going to stay here?
25886Are you much hurt?
25886Are you sure?
25886Are you, indeed? 25886 As what?"
25886Bring him out? 25886 But did n''t it snap your hand off too?"
25886But did n''t you fall after the ball had passed through both your lungs?
25886But have you no other name?
25886But where did you get the pass you gave the corporal of the guard at the depot?
25886Ca n''t stand what?
25886Ca n''t yer find''em?
25886Ca n''t yer hide in t''other place down suller?
25886Ca n''t yer sleep?
25886Can you handle a boat?
25886Can you take care of the steamer?
25886Can you talk the Austrian lingo, captain?
25886Can you tell me where the regiment is?
25886Captain?
25886Did I? 25886 Did he?"
25886Did n''t I tell you I could n''t remember whether it was two hundred or three hundred? 25886 Did n''t you agree to keep me here till night?"
25886Did n''t you bring me in here to capture this boy?
25886Did n''t you say he would lose his arm?
25886Did n''t you see him?
25886Did n''t you see me there?
25886Did yer run away?
25886Did yer?
25886Did you find the regiment?
25886Did you intend to sacrifice our lives?
25886Did you walk all the way?
25886Did you, indeed?
25886Do n''t ye see what I came in here for?
25886Do n''t you know him, Sue?
25886Do n''t you know what special duty means? 25886 Do n''t you know who I am, Sue?"
25886Do n''t you think it would be better if you could confine yourself to the exact truth?
25886Do n''t you, indeed?
25886Do n''t you? 25886 Do you believe we shall ever get into Richmond, captain?"
25886Do you doubt the story?
25886Do you know Senator Guilford?
25886Do you know the channel of the river?
25886Do you know where General Jackson is now?
25886Do you know who I am, you villain?
25886Do you mean to doubt my word, even before I utter it?
25886Do you mean to say you are not Barney Marvel, formerly a lieutenant in the Third Tennessee?
25886Do you mean to tell me that I lie?
25886Do you see that hole in the tree?
25886Do you think I would ask an officer to sacrifice his conscience?
25886Do you think so?
25886Do you usually shoot any man you happen to meet in the woods?
25886Do you wish to run away, and leave me so soon, you monster?
25886Do you, indeed?
25886Doctor?
25886Eh? 25886 Eh?"
25886Has a pretty daughter, has n''t he? 25886 Have n''t I?"
25886Have n''t they got most ready for the Yankee fleet above here?
25886Have n''t you seen him?
25886Have n''t you, indeed, Barney?
25886Have the Yankees any picket boats out?
25886Hev they all gone, dad?
25886Hey?
25886Hopeless?
25886How are Magenta, Solferino, and the Crimea, now- a- days?
25886How are you, Yank?
25886How are you, Yank?
25886How are you, old hoss?
25886How are you, sergeant?
25886How came this board knocked off?
25886How came you in such a place?
25886How dare you present yourself before an officer of the day with such a dirty face?
25886How did you get over?
25886How do you do, mother? 25886 How do you feel now, leftenant?"
25886How do you feel, my dear boy?
25886How do you know I am?
25886How do you know they are after us, you black rascal?
25886How far up have you been?
25886How far?
25886How long?
25886How many men have you got, reb?
25886How many soldiers did you meet?
25886How much whiskey can you drink without going by the board?
25886How shall we run away, with four men watching us?
25886How was it, Andy?
25886I believe you said you never drank any whiskey?
25886I say, reb, when did you shave last?
25886I see you are; and I suppose you belong to the army, do n''t you?
25886I suppose I am only a prisoner of war?
25886I suppose you do n''t know what a comb is for, do you?
25886I suppose you have no objection to my informing the Confederate States military officers in the city of your presence here?
25886I suppose you know that poem, Somers?
25886I think not; but were you at Bull Run?
25886I?
25886If he did, where is he? 25886 Is n''t he in the house?"
25886Is n''t the word of an officer and a gentleman to be accepted?
25886Is that so?
25886Is there any such man as Tom Leathers here?
25886Is your name Tom Leathers?
25886Leave him? 25886 Leave you?
25886Let me see it, if you please?
25886Lieutenant Somers? 25886 Lieutenant Somers?"
25886May I be allowed to ask, Lieutenant Somers, if you deem my statement inconsistent with reason?
25886May I be allowed to inquire where you left your coat?
25886May I be allowed to inquire why you think it is impossible?
25886May I be allowed to select an officer to go with me?
25886May I be permitted to inquire whom I have the honor of addressing?
25886Nervous? 25886 Nor that little lady we left all used up with a broken arm?"
25886Not of Petersburg?
25886Nothing very singular about that, is there?
25886Now, what''s the news in Pinchbrook?
25886Of Petersburg?
25886Of course, you will leave this with me?
25886Only a captain?
25886Only one? 25886 Or that other little lady who knits socks for soldiers that do n''t run away in battle?"
25886Perhaps that is not very complimentary to me; but where is the other picture?
25886Pray, what did you expect him to do?
25886Promoted for that?
25886Russian?
25886Say, is this a joke, a sell?
25886Sergeant, have you been to breakfast?
25886Shall I tell my story in full, or only give you the information I obtained?
25886Sick, are you? 25886 Since we parted, my boy?
25886So, my mysterious friend, you are a Confederate deserter, are you?
25886Somers, my boy, did you ever hear of a man having his double?
25886That may be, Mr. Raynes; but do you suppose a man looking for the Fourth Alabama would be wandering about here?
25886The one that was burned in the creek last night?
25886The same bullet?
25886Then the prisoners have gone down this way?
25886Then yer be a Yank?
25886Then you are not an American?
25886Then you have actually shaken hands with the Emperor of France?
25886Then you have decided the case against me-- have you?
25886Then you never was drunk?
25886Then your name is Allan Garland, is it?
25886There, now, dad!--d''ye see what ye''ve done?
25886They are building batteries up above, to knock the Yankees into pieces, are n''t they?
25886This is Sue, I suppose?
25886This is your Yankee, is it?
25886Tom?
25886Too bad? 25886 Up there?"
25886Was he a Yank?
25886Well, I do n''t remember to have seen you there?
25886Well, Somers, how do you feel?
25886Well, Somers, my dear boy, how do you get on?
25886Well, captain, was there anything like this at Magenta?
25886Well, do you expect to find them in the dwelling- house of Dr. Scoville? 25886 Well, old hoss, if Heaven gin you two eyes, what were they gin to ye fur?"
25886Well, where are you going now?
25886Well, young man, did you obtain your instructions?
25886Were you at the battle of Bunker Hill?
25886Were you ever killed?
25886Were you ever wounded, Captain de Banyan?
25886Were you, indeed? 25886 Wha''for you gwine down dar?"
25886What am I to apologize for?
25886What are you doing here?
25886What are you doing up here?
25886What are you laughing at, pa?
25886What are you stopping there for, Andy? 25886 What d''ye come in here fur?"
25886What d''ye run for when you saw us coming?
25886What d''ye say, Yank?
25886What d''yer mean, Tom?
25886What did you say so for, then?
25886What did you say your name was?
25886What did you say, then?
25886What do they want?
25886What do you intend to do?
25886What do you know about me?
25886What do you mean by my good fortune, captain?
25886What do you mean by pitching into me in that way?
25886What do you mean by that, Captain Osborn?
25886What do you mean, captain?
25886What do you mean?
25886What do you mean?
25886What do you say to going with me?
25886What do you say, sergeant?
25886What do you suppose a major- general can want with you? 25886 What do you think of him?"
25886What do you want?
25886What has become of Andy?
25886What have you got there, Platner?
25886What have you there?
25886What have you told him?
25886What if he does?
25886What is her name?
25886What is it?
25886What is the matter with your arm?
25886What is to be done with me?
25886What is your name?
25886What kind of medicine is it?
25886What may be the precise meaning of that whistle? 25886 What news did you hear?"
25886What of that? 25886 What of that?"
25886What reasons?
25886What regiment did you say you belonged to?
25886What regiment do yer belong ter?
25886What regiment do you belong to?
25886What regiment do you belong to?
25886What regiment?
25886What shall I do?
25886What shall we do?
25886What time is it, Tom?
25886What time is it, captain?
25886What was the joke?
25886What will you take?
25886What would Lord Raglan have said if I had refused to drink his Sicily Madeira?
25886What ye doin''in here?
25886What yer in here fur, if yer did n''t run away, then?
25886What yer want o''me? 25886 What''s bad?"
25886What''s his name?
25886What''s that?
25886What''s yer name?
25886What''s your name?
25886What''s your name?
25886What, about the cannon?
25886When I tell you that I belong to the Fourth Alabama, do n''t you know me?
25886When will you come again?
25886Where are you going?
25886Where are you going?
25886Where d''ye come from?
25886Where did I get it? 25886 Where did he go, then?"
25886Where did he go?
25886Where did you come from, Allan? 25886 Where did you get all these men?"
25886Where did you get this picture, Sue?
25886Where did you get this picture?
25886Where did you leave it?
25886Where does she live?
25886Where does this road lead to?
25886Where have you been since I parted from you?
25886Where have you been since we parted?
25886Where is he, then?
25886Where is he? 25886 Where is he?"
25886Where is he?
25886Where is my father?
25886Where is the place?
25886Where shall I find you?
25886Where shall we go, then?
25886Where was the sergeant of the guard, the officer of the day, and the sentinels?
25886Where-- where?
25886Which is the man?
25886Who are ye?
25886Who are you, sir?
25886Who are you, then?
25886Who are you?
25886Who are you?
25886Who are you?
25886Who are you?
25886Who be yer?
25886Who be you?
25886Who goes there?
25886Who goes there?
25886Who is he?
25886Who is he?
25886Who is that man with you?
25886Who is that?
25886Who is the man with you?
25886Who lives in that house?
25886Who mought you be?
25886Who told you I was a captain?
25886Who told you that?
25886Who was he? 25886 Who''s Tom Myers?"
25886Who?
25886Whom do you desire to go with you?
25886Whose heart''s blood do you want?
25886Why not?
25886Why not?
25886Why so?
25886Will yer?
25886Will you be kind enough to inform me who lives in this house?
25886Will you come down head first, or feet first? 25886 Will you leave this gentleman in this condition?"
25886Will you oblige me by telling me to what regiment you belong?
25886Will you promise to give it back to me?
25886Will you tell me, sir, why I am separated from the rest of the prisoners?
25886Yer do n''t s''pose the feller went out that winder, do yer?
25886You are a Confederate officer?
25886You certainly do not expect any one to believe those wretched big stories you tell?
25886You did n''t? 25886 You did not?"
25886You do n''t mean to say that is Allan Garland?
25886You do n''t propose to tell us a story about Magenta at such a time as this, do you?
25886You have n''t the diary with you, I suppose?
25886You say he drove you up the chimney?
25886You were out scouting when you were taken?
25886You will forgive me for my unjust suspicions, captain? 25886 You wo n''t refuse now?"
25886You?
25886Your friend, eh?
25886Your report? 25886 Ah, what have we here?
25886And what could I have said to the general, when he asked for you?
25886Are you very sure that you can stand the fatigue of a long walk?"
25886At Solferino, he----""But how could you have been at Solferino, if you were in the hospital five weeks?"
25886But what shall I say for myself?"
25886But where is Andy?"
25886But who is this?"
25886But, if a Yankee, what Yankee?
25886By the way, Somers, ca n''t you introduce me to the old gentleman?"
25886By the way, Somers, do n''t you suppose that Senator Guilford will hear of this affair?"
25886By the way, captain, do you remember Senator Guilford?"
25886By the way, do you smoke, Somers?
25886CHAPTER XI THE VIRGINIA MAIDEN"Where have you been, father?"
25886CHAPTER XXIX DE BANYAN AT WORK"How do you feel, my dear boy?"
25886Can I do anything more for you?"
25886Can I furnish you with any further information?"
25886Can you sit on a horse?"
25886Can you tell me where the Fourth Alabama is?"
25886Dare you drink the health of Emmie Guilford in such a place as this?
25886Did n''t you send it to me yourself?"
25886Did you?"
25886Do n''t yer see, Tom?
25886Do n''t yer, Tom?"
25886Do n''t you ever open your windows?"
25886Do n''t you know me now?"
25886Do n''t you know me_ now_, Sue?"
25886Do n''t you know your own name?
25886Do n''t you see he can get you on some general''s staff, and have you promoted every time there is a skirmish?"
25886Do n''t you see those signal- flags on the houses yonder?"
25886Do n''t you see we are in the same box?
25886Do n''t you think they would have known what she was for?"
25886Do n''t you want to see the lions of the metropolis?"
25886Do you belong to the Fourth Alabama?"
25886Do you calculate to go through them, or over them?"
25886Do you know what I was thinking about just then, young man?"
25886Do you really mean to say, my dear fellow, that you never drink at all?"
25886Do you see that rebel battery?"
25886Do you think I was not there?"
25886Do you think I would destroy the work of my own hands?"
25886Do you think I''m a coward?"
25886Do you think that I, an officer and a gentleman, would stoop to the vice of lying?"
25886Eh?
25886Fell out of a railroad car and broke her arm, did n''t she?"
25886Have n''t you his picture in the house?
25886Have you a pistol?"
25886Have you seen Owen since you got back?"
25886How are you, Allan Garland?"
25886How came you here?"
25886How could I have made my peace with the officers of the regiment, if I had gone back without you?"
25886How could I know that you had not been sent over on the other side for the same purpose that we crossed the James?"
25886How do you do, father?"
25886How do you feel now, Emmie?"
25886How do you feel, Somers?"
25886How have you been since I left?"
25886How is your arm?"
25886How is your arm?"
25886How many boats shall you want, captain?"
25886I found some papers and a diary in the pocket----""Did I leave my papers in the pocket?
25886I had given you up for lost?"
25886I say, Yank, what are you uns doin''in hyar?"
25886I''m going to have a brandy smash: shall I order one for you?"
25886Just as I had raised my sword to cut down a Russian who threatened to bayonet me, a cannon- ball struck the butt of my gun----""Your gun?"
25886Now, Somers, what do you suppose the general wants of you?"
25886Now, captain, at the battle of Bunker Hill, I saw a man----""You?"
25886Now, captain, do n''t you think you exaggerate sometimes?"
25886Of course the batteries were supported?"
25886Perhaps you meant muskets?"
25886Raynes?"
25886Say, you hain''t got a spare hoss in your caravan, have you?
25886Scoville?"
25886Seriously and solemnly, were you at the battle of Magenta?"
25886They ca n''t all be major- generals, can they?"
25886They made a long run of it; and it was only ended when Tom heard the demand of his faithful sergeant--"Who goes there?"
25886To what regiment do you belong?"
25886Was he a hated Yankee like himself, pursued and hunted down by the myrmidons of Jeff Davis?
25886Was he friend, or foe?
25886Was it possible that the other denizen of the sooty flue could be Captain de Banyan?
25886Well, how did it happen, then?"
25886Were you asked to drink by a rebel major- general?"
25886What are you about?"
25886What are you about?"
25886What are you doing over here, then?"
25886What business had he there?
25886What business was that to him?
25886What do you say?"
25886What do you say?"
25886What do you suppose Andy sent me here for?"
25886What do you think of it?"
25886What is that?"
25886What is the matter with your arm?"
25886What is your name?"
25886What was he in the chimney for?
25886What was the life of a single man, of a hundred thousand even, compared with the fearful issue of that moment?
25886What will you drink?"
25886What would Lilian Ashford say?
25886What would your mother say if she could see you now, with your shaking hand fastened to the wine- cup?
25886What yer doin''in the chimley?"
25886What''s that?"
25886What''s the matter?"
25886What''s this?
25886What''s yours?
25886Where are you going now?"
25886Where did you get this coat?"
25886Where have you been all day?"
25886Where have you been?"
25886Where is Graves?
25886Where is the fire- steamer?"
25886Where is your coat?"
25886Who did do it, then?"
25886Who is this young man?"
25886Who was she?"
25886Why did n''t you fit out your steamer up the river?"
25886Why did n''t you write to me before?"
25886Why do n''t you pull up the creek?"
25886Why do n''t you write to the damsel, and tell her you are still alive, if you ca n''t think of anything else to say?"
25886Why not?"
25886Why should he have any?
25886Why should he trouble himself about other people''s affairs?
25886Why should the man wish to conceal himself?
25886Will you attend to this man?"
25886Will you surrender, or fight?"
25886Yankee, rebel, or neutral?
25886You are Mr. Raynes, I presume?"
25886You are a major now?"
25886You do n''t expect any man in his senses to believe that you walked over nine miles an hour, and followed it for seven hours?"
25886You do n''t imagine I would be so mean as to confiscate it?"
25886You drink brandy, do n''t you?"
25886You gave me the lie; did you not?"
25886You think I''m a fool, do n''t you, Allan?"
25886You will wake me, Tom, if there''s any danger; wo n''t you?"
25886_ Were_ you at the battle of Magenta?"
25886do you think so?"
25886down here in the mud and water?
25886general, I do n''t think----""Do n''t you?"
25886how are you now?"
25886is it possible?
25886shouted the officer again, with a string of Southern Confederacy oaths;"where are you?
25886then you are General de Banyan?"
25886what was that to a man of your merit, with a Senator to speak at court for you?
25886you were in the Crimea?"
34843''Are you a Christian Commission man?'' 34843 ''Are you married?''
34843''But what''s all dis here talking''bout? 34843 ''It is n''t Sunday, is it?
34843''My boys, you do n''t play cards on Sunday, do you?'' 34843 ''O Missis,''says I,''how could you do it?''
34843''Wo n''t you try to leave it off?'' 34843 ''_ You_ will, you nigger?
34843Absurd? 34843 An''says I to her,--"''Who is God, anyhow, mammy?''
34843And leave your old home, your old master, and the place where you have lived all your days?
34843Are they driving us?
34843Are we to understand that in this age a captain can not afford to equal a negro in politeness?
34843Are you a Union man?
34843Are you a slave, Dick?
34843Are you all ready there?
34843Are you going to move?
34843Are you going to pay me for it?
34843Are you not afraid of us Yankees?
34843Are you not afraid of us?
34843Are you not afraid that the Rebels will catch you?
34843Are you not afraid that we shall sell you?
34843Are you not too much extended? 34843 But did you not wish to be free?"
34843But how could you fight against the old flag?
34843But how will he get his supplies?
34843But if two individuals can live peacefully, why not ten,--or a hundred,--a thousand,--all?
34843But, Sojourner, had you never been told about Jesus Christ?
34843But, my friend, if it had not been for the Union troops would n''t you have lost everything, if you are a Union man?
34843By whose authority do you take my property?
34843Ca n''t you trust the President who gave you your freedom?
34843Can I do anything for you?
34843Can you accommodate me with a room?
34843Can you favor me with an account of the affair?
34843Can you read and write?
34843Can you retake that battery?
34843Dat President Linkum?
34843Did not I tell you that I would take you away?
34843Did you bring your''stificate with you?
34843Did you ever see an Abolitionist?
34843Did you ever try to escape?
34843Did you get it for me? 34843 Did you have any desire to stay North?"
34843Did you not feel sometimes like rising against your masters?
34843Did you not sometimes despair?
34843Did you pray, my son?
34843Did your people understand the points at issue between the South and the North, when the war begun?
34843Do I look as though I should like to kill your little ones?
34843Do n''t you think the war is almost over,--that it is useless for Lee to contend further?
34843Do they believe it?
34843Do you mean the Union soldiers?
34843Do you preach from the Bible?
34843Do you think it right, auntie, to leave your mistress, who has taken care of you so long?
34843Do you think that I am to be intimidated by a pack of blackguards from northern Ohio?
34843Do you think that Lee can get across the Potomac?
34843Do you think that men can live in the mountains?
34843Do you think that the men will permit me to take him?
34843Do you think you can take care of yourself?
34843Do you want to be buried with a nigger, and have your bones touch his in the grave?
34843Does any one here know anything about Jonas?
34843For who that leans on His right arm Was ever yet forsaken? 34843 From Rosa?
34843From Rosa?
34843Has Lee licked the Yankees?
34843Has he always treated you well?
34843Have n''t any to sell? 34843 Have not I always treated you well?"
34843Have they been in battle?
34843Have you found him?
34843Have you seen any Rebels this morning?
34843How came you here?
34843How compelled?
34843How did the negroes stand fire?
34843How do the Yankees behave?
34843How do you do, Aunty?
34843How far is it to Savannah?
34843How large a force is it supposed the Rebels have in Maryland?
34843How many colored men enlisted?
34843How so?
34843How so?
34843How so?
34843I asked one noble- looking soldier if he loved Jesus? 34843 I suppose you did n''t expect Grant to get this side of the Wilderness?"
34843I suppose you have heard many prayers here for Jeff Davis?
34843I wonder if we shall have McClellan back?
34843I would like to know what title we shall have to our lands, or to the improvements we shall make?
34843If I were to reside here, you of course would treat me courteously so long as I was a gentleman in my deportment?
34843In what way would you have our generals act to carry out what you conceive to be such principles?
34843Is General Grant in?
34843Is not this your home?
34843Is your master a Secessionist?
34843Joe,said the Colonel,"are you willing to go home with your master?"
34843Let''em burn: who cares?
34843Mr. Brown, did you ever hear about the Abolitionists?
34843O my God, what will become of us? 34843 O, is n''t it too bad that Zollicoffer is killed?
34843Say, General, ai n''t you going to pay me for my property which your soldiers destroyed?
34843See here, old fellow, wo n''t ye sell me a hunk of your gingerbread?
34843Shall I take a look at the church?
34843Stranger,said he,"have you got a sweet tooth?"
34843Thank you,"God bless the Commission,"I say, Bill, are n''t they bully?
34843The Christian Commission? 34843 The soldiers steal your chickens, you say?"
34843Then the women were as eager as the men for the war?
34843Then you are glad the Yankees are here?
34843Then you have a wife?
34843Then you look upon us as your friends?
34843Then you were at Bull Run? 34843 Then you would not have a majority of the people elect their officers in the constituted way?"
34843Was not the first gun fired by the Rebels upon Fort Sumter?
34843Was you a member of the church there, my son?
34843Was your master kind to you?
34843Well, I wonder what he was thinking of when he carried out those forty thousand handcuffs?
34843Well, Uncle Jacob, which would you rather be, a freeman or a slave?
34843Well, my boy, what is your name?
34843Well, my son, where are you from?
34843Were you not afraid, Aunty, when the shells fell into the town?
34843Were you not frightened when you saw the Yankees?
34843What can be done for the poor whites?
34843What can you do?
34843What did you hear about them?
34843What did you think when we were defeated at Manassas? 34843 What do the women think now?"
34843What do you ask for a loaf?
34843What do you call us?
34843What do you charge for a glass?
34843What do you think of it?
34843What does this mean?
34843What for? 34843 What gives the wheat- field blades of steel?
34843What have ye got to sell, old fellow? 34843 What is the matter?"
34843What is your name?
34843What kind of people do you think they are?
34843What makes you so happy?
34843What pleases you, Aunty?
34843What regiment do you belong to?
34843What right have your men to stop us, sir? 34843 What shall I do?"
34843What though the cast- out spirit tear The nation in his going? 34843 What will Grant do?"
34843What, massa?
34843When did you come from there?
34843When do you think the war would end if such a plan was adopted?
34843When will you evacuate?
34843Where are you going? 34843 Where are you going?"
34843Where are you going?
34843Where are you going?
34843Where did this come from?
34843Where did you come from?
34843Where do you hail from, soldier?
34843Where do you live?
34843Where is your captain?
34843Where is your master?
34843Where were you when the fight was going on at Fort Donelson?
34843Where, I should like to know?
34843Which way?
34843Who are you, sir?
34843Who do you belong to?
34843Who has the most reason to be ashamed, you of us, or we of you?
34843Who will convey news to Hooker of our success?
34843Why do n''t Buell move? 34843 Why do n''t you fall into line?"
34843Why do you keep your slaves? 34843 Why do you not go to Illinois?"
34843Why do you think so?
34843Why not, sir?
34843Why so? 34843 Why so?"
34843Why, Sojourner, what do you preach from, then?
34843Why,he asked,"does Louisville write on an hundred of her stores''To let,''while Cincinnati advertises''Wanted''?
34843Why?
34843Will it disturb you if we have a little singing? 34843 Will you send the boy into some other regiment?"
34843Would you have fought against the Yankees?
34843Would you like an orange, sir?
34843Would you like an orange?
34843You are?
34843You did n''t expect to buy them here, did you?
34843You have seen people sold in the market, I suppose?
34843You live in this old house down here?
34843You mean one of your slaves, I presume?
34843You own some slaves?
34843Your own father?
34843_ Is_ he?
34843''Are you to have it finished before the world ends?''
34843''Fixing up to leave?''
34843''How does your saloon get on?''
34843''I have ploughed, and planted, and gathered into barns, and no man could head me; and arn''t I a woman?
34843''Please, sir, can you spare me one?''
34843''Who wants meetings?''
34843*****"And is it Christian England cheers The bruiser, not the bruised?
34843An''says I,''Laws, you did n''t think o''sech a thing as my sleepin''in dat''ar''_ bed_, did you?
34843An''then says I,''_ Who_ is this?''
34843And must she run, despite the tears And prayers of eighteen hundred years, A- muck in Slavery''s crusade?
34843And union find in freedom?
34843And will not evening call another star Out of the infinite regions of the night To mark this day in Heaven?
34843Are n''t you willing to trust him now?"
34843Are you afraid that the negro will push you from your position?
34843Are you willing that I should go and get my boy?"
34843Bread, eh?"
34843Brothers, wo n''t you follow?"
34843But has not the free American laborer been forced to compete through all the years of the past with unrequited slave labor?
34843But what made you become a Christian?"
34843But where did they place themselves?
34843But where were the Union people?
34843Can any of you tell me how you voted?"
34843Can we expect him to be our equal in acquisition of knowledge?
34843Can you hold your front?"
34843Certainly it was beneficial to the master; why should it not be to the slave?
34843Could we dance?
34843Did you not despair?"
34843From Rosa?
34843General Baird saw the negroes on the steamer, and approaching Colonel Utley, said,--"Why, Colonel, how is this?
34843Had Stuart suddenly gained our rear?
34843Had anything happened to them?
34843Had the fuse failed?
34843Have all of these negroes free papers?"
34843Have n''t I been her cook for more than thirty years?
34843Have n''t I cooked every meal she ever ate in that house?
34843Have you written to your mother since the battle?"
34843He knew it would endanger the lives of thousands; but what cared he?
34843He thus addressed the unconverted:--"O, my poor, impenitent fellow- sinner, what you think you are doing?
34843He was a pious old preacher; but then I seemed to see Cato in the light, an''he was all polluted an''vile, like me; an''I said,''Is it old Sally?''
34843How did they live?
34843How does he know dey go out?
34843How lie down in death in that loathsome place, when, by taking the oath of allegiance to the Southern Confederacy, he could obtain freedom?
34843How long, O Lord?
34843How much do you love your country if you thus make conditions of loyalty?"
34843How shall we reward them?
34843How shall we thank them?
34843How you goin''to do it?
34843I asked one athletic man what he thought of it?
34843I have prayed for you to come; and do you think that I would have prayed one way and fit de other?"
34843I looked into the first cabin, and seeing an old man sitting before the fire, greeted him with"How do you do, Uncle?"
34843I met a young colored man, with features more Anglo- Saxon than African, who asked,--"Do you think, sir, that I could obtain employment in the North?"
34843I often think of the language of our Saviour:''Eloi, Eloi, lama sabacthani,''--My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
34843I take it that you belong to the army?"
34843I was a stranger to them all, but I ventured to make this inquiry,--"Did you ever see an Abolitionist?"
34843If Secession could cut loose from the Union, why not from the Confederacy?
34843If my cup wo n''t hold but a pint, and yours holds a quart, would n''t you be mean not to let me have my little half measure full?''
34843If the sword cut in one direction, why not in another?
34843Is it a wonder that the recollection of that scene sometimes fills my eyes with tears?
34843Is it a wonder that they exhibited extravagant joy?
34843Is it old Cato?''
34843Is n''t it strange?"
34843On what page of Confederate history shall we read the remonstrance of Lee, Davis, Stephens, Toombs, or Breckenridge?
34843Once they asked questions of Yankees:"What is your occupation?
34843Or would he move his right flank along the Blue Ridge, crowding Lee to the seaboard?
34843Raising her voice she repeated,''Whar did your Christ come from?
34843Raising herself to her full height, and her voice to a pitch like rolling thunder, she asked,''And arn''t I a woman?
34843Said a friend to me one morning,"Are you aware that the Washington jail is full of slaves?"
34843Shall not this act of two unknown colored soldiers also have a place in history?
34843She''d groan an''groan, an''says I to her,--"''Mammy, what makes you groan so?''
34843Should we steam down to them, and ask them what they thought of the Rebellion?
34843Sisters, wo n''t you follow?
34843So great was the danger which he ran, that one of his staff said,''General, do n''t you think this is the wrong place for you?''
34843So prevailing was the excitement that the common mode of salutation on Main Street was,''When do you think the Federals will be here?''
34843The Yankees coming?
34843The following conversation passed between them:--_ Colonel W._"Whom have I the pleasure of addressing?"
34843There was''already an order out to move; what''s the use?''
34843They are arrant cowards, those dear dark friends of ours.[?]
34843They hail me from a distance:''Are you coming down this way, chaplain?''
34843To what end?
34843W._"Shall I also trouble you for a pen and ink?"
34843W._"Will you do me the favor to loan me a piece of paper?"
34843Was such destruction warranted?
34843Was the arrival of the Monitor in Hampton Roads on that morning, after the havoc made by the Merrimac, accidental?
34843Was there any respect shown by the Rebel authorities?
34843Were the Rebels retreating, or were they receiving reinforcements?
34843Were the workingmen of Old England any more worthy than they of New England to associate with the slave- masters of the South?
34843Were they assembling to welcome us?
34843What action was taken by the Rebel Congress?
34843What are ye here for?"
34843What are you doing here?
34843What breaks the oath Of the men o''the South?
34843What brought you to the South?
34843What can we do with''em?
34843What cared those freedmen, fresh from the house of bondage, for floating timber or military commands?
34843What could I do with my three little children there?
34843What could it be?
34843What did she ever do for me?
34843What did they do?
34843What dis dey call it?''
34843What drama surpasses it in interest?
34843What estimate shall we place upon their work?
34843What had caused this alienation?
34843What had produced this bitterness?
34843What had transpired to produce this white heat of passion?
34843What has she done for me in return?
34843What if our horses had started?
34843What is your shame worth?
34843What period of the world''s history is more replete with great events affecting the welfare of the human race?
34843What points the rebel cannon?
34843What restraint was ever laid upon him?
34843What righteous cause can suffer harm If He its part has taken?
34843What say you?
34843What sets the roaring rabble''s heel On the old star- spangled pennon?
34843What shall I do?"
34843What shall I do?"
34843What shall I get?"
34843What was gained by it?
34843What will be the verdict of history?
34843What wonder that hunger, despair, and death, and the example of some of his comrades, made him weakly hesitate?
34843What would become of them?
34843What''s dat got to do wid woman''s rights or niggers''rights?
34843Whate''er the loss, Whate''er the cross, Shall they complain Of present pain Who trust in God''s hereafter?
34843When were his acts disavowed by the Rebel government?
34843When will this terrible war come to an end?"
34843Where is the protest of the"chivalrous"gentlemen of the South?
34843Where is your sense of fair play?
34843Where will you go?"
34843Where you think you are going?
34843Who attempt the hazardous enterprise?
34843Who gave them authority?
34843Who would go?
34843Why do n''t Halleck move?
34843Why do the Abolitionists oppose colonization?
34843Why not place them in the category with gunpowder, horses, and cattle?
34843Why?
34843Will it withstand the shock?
34843Will not history hold him accountable?
34843Will the tree of Liberty prematurely decay, if nourished by such life- giving blood?
34843Would Meade move directly across the Rapidan and attack Lee in front, with every passage, every hill and ravine enfiladed by Rebel cannon?
34843Would an abject, servile race, kept in chains four thousand years, assert their manhood?
34843Would he not aim directly toward the cradle of Secession?
34843Would he not make, rather, a sudden change of base to Fredericksburg?
34843Would they falter?
34843Would they fight?
34843Yet who can restrain grief to see them fall in such a way as this,--not by the fortunes of war, but by the hand of an assassin?"
34843You do n''t hate me individually?"
34843You go about lecturing, do you not?"
34843You say that the negro is an inferior being; what do you say of Frederick Douglass, who has raised himself from slavery to a high position?
34843You''s heerd o''me, I reckon?"
34843how did they die?"
34843in''63,"Where shall we hide our goods?"
34843or what if in the darkness a soldier, grieving over his imaginary wrong, and reckless of life, had misunderstood us?
34843or where do you expect to go?"
34843said he;"you who condemn the government?
34843shall I ever forget that sight, when the boat went down?"
19831... How have you progressed in the solution of the problem I left-- the organization of the troops with reference to the States, and term of service? 19831 First of all, we must inquire what is the cause of the evils which beset us?
19831On this point you say:` But did the necessity exist in this case? 19831 What species of military coercion,"said he,"could the General Government adopt for the enforcement of obedience to its demands?
19831Would it alter the fact,said he,"if a Legislature should solemnly enact that Mr. Hume never wrote the History of England?"
19831[ 83] Could language be more clear or more complete in vindication of the principles laid down in this work? 19831 _ Is thy servant a dog?_"its use in the United States Senate, 34.
19831''[ 196]"What, then, are militia?
19831... Sir, it has been asked on several occasions during the present session, What ground of complaint has the South?
19831324; his blockade proclamation, 324; its scheme, 324; how based, 324; its assumption of an insurrection, 325; was it an insurrection?
19831Allow a President to make war?
19831Allow a general of the army to make war?
19831Allow an officer of the army to make war?
19831Allow an unconfirmed head of a department to make war?
19831And do they furnish no cause for repentance to you?
19831And for what end, sir, is all this aggression?
19831And here the ingenuous reader may very naturally ask, What became of all this feeling?
19831And how was this to be enumerated among the high crimes which caused the colonies to sever their connection with the mother- country?
19831And is it not the part of integrity and wisdom, as soon as they can, to retrace their steps?
19831And still will you hesitate; still will you do nothing?
19831And why has the West so often been reminded of its services upon Texas annexation?
19831Are not the votes of this Convention taken on every question under the idea of independency?"
19831Are there not many cases, in which the Legislature of Virginia is a party, and yet the State is not sued?
19831Are these no subjects of complaint for us?
19831Are they but the little evanishing clouds that flit between the people and the great objects for which the Constitution was established?
19831Are we invaded?
19831Are we not bound to meet events as they come before us, manfully and patriotically to struggle with the difficulties which now oppress the country?
19831Are we to do nothing to restore peace?
19831Are we to drift into war?
19831Are we to have drum- head courts substituted for those which the Constitution and laws provide?
19831Are we to have sergeants sent over the land instead of civil magistrates?
19831Are we to stand idly by, and allow war to be precipitated upon the country?
19831At the end of all this what will you have effected?
19831But New York must be associated; and how is her concurrence to be obtained?
19831But can we believe that one State will ever suffer itself to be used as an instrument of coercion?
19831But did this omission of the obligation to send here the laws of the Territories work this grant of power to the Territorial Legislature?
19831But how can this force be exerted on the States collectively?
19831But what gained Sir Colin Campbell the opportunity to achieve those glorious results in India?
19831But who are those that arraign the South, imputing to us motives of sectional aggrandizement?
19831But why multiply citations?
19831But why need I indulge in these reflections in proof of my proposition?
19831But why not accept them with the propositions of the Confederate States on slavery as a basis of reunion?
19831But why-- and what laws are to be enforced?
19831But will the North agree to do this?
19831But, I ask again, what power has the President to use the army and navy except to execute process?
19831But, if that can not be, what then?
19831But, if you had known the acts of the authorities of South Carolina, should that have prevented your keeping your faith?
19831By strengthening this Government?
19831By themselves or by some of the States, all of whom, according to this hypothesis, had been consolidated into one?
19831By what standard do they measure it?
19831By whom were the powers granted to be perverted to the injury or oppression of the whole people?
19831Can it be that any of you should tread that soil and forget the great purposes for which those men died?
19831Can one and the same law be construed into a''calling forth the militia,''if the war be defensive, and a''raising of armies,''if the war be offensive?
19831Can the right be admitted in that community to usurp the sovereignty over territory which belongs to the States of the Union?
19831Can there be a point of pride against laying upon that sacred soil to- day the flag for which our fathers died?
19831Can there, then, be a point of pride upon so sacred a soil as this, where the blood of the fathers cries to heaven against civil war?
19831Can this be a definition of sovereignty?
19831Can this power extend so far as to take from her a portion of her territory, or to assert that there is a portion to which she is not entitled?
19831Can we consolidate their sovereignty and form one nation_, and annihilate the sovereignties of our States, who have sent us here for other purposes?"
19831Could any assertion be less credible than that they proceeded to institute another supreme government which it would be treason to resist?
19831Could any man say that this power was not retained by the States, as they had not given it away?
19831Could it have been transferred to the Government of the Union?
19831Could such a man be the just object of suspicion, if, when laws had been silenced, suspicion could justify arrest and imprisonment?
19831Could the claim to State''sovereignty''be more completely disposed of at a word?
19831Did real peace and the restoration of the States to their former rights and positions follow, as was promised on the restoration of the Union?
19831Did the Carolinians attack it?
19831Did the Constitution attempt to assimilate the institutions of the different States confederated together?
19831Did the States agree that they never could withdraw from the Federal Union?
19831Did the States surrender their sovereignty to the Federal Government?
19831Did they propose to seize it?
19831Did vengeance, which stops at the grave, subside?
19831Do they require that, in the establishment of the Constitution, the States should be regarded as distinct and independent sovereigns?
19831Do we want a new Government that is to overthrow the old?
19831Do we wish to erect a central Colossus, wielding at discretion the military arm, and exercising military force over the people and the States?
19831Do you pay taxes, then, to an agent, that he may destroy your property?
19831Do you support him for that purpose?
19831Does any man insist upon going upon the open field with deadly weapons to fight his brother on a question of courage?
19831Does any man''s courage impel him to stand boldly forth to take the life of his brethren?
19831Does it benefit the case?
19831Does the Constitution discriminate between different kinds of property?
19831Does the agriculture of the South injure the manufactures of the North?
19831For proof of this, I refer to the annexed documents marked,(?)
19831For what purpose must he call out this war power?
19831For why declare that things shall not be done, which there is no power to do?
19831For( says he) does not a power remain till it is given away?
19831From what have dangers to the Union arisen?
19831From whom comes the danger?
19831Good or evil?
19831Had the Declaration announced that the negroes were free and equal, how was the prince to be arraigned for raising up insurrection among them?
19831Has it a right to determine what shall be property?
19831Has it the right to say what shall be property anywhere?
19831Has patriotism ceased to be a virtue, and is narrow sectionalism no longer to be counted a crime?
19831Have the purposes for which our Union was formed lost their value?
19831Have they made a proposal of a compact between States?
19831Have they said, We, the States?
19831Have we not a right to appeal to you as brethren of this Union?
19831Have we so degenerated that we can no longer emulate their virtues?
19831Have we so formed our Government that in this litigation we must never be plaintiffs?
19831He says:"I ask, What are these principles?
19831How could recoveries be enforced?
19831How far are you to push us?
19831How is it to be carried on?
19831How is the case in Oregon?
19831How shall it be done?
19831How was it ever taken out of that source of all power to be given to the Federal Government?
19831How was it on the other side?
19831How was it that, in the course of a few weeks, it had disappeared like a morning mist?
19831How will you determine what is the seal, and who are the officers, of a community unknown as an organized body to the Congress of the United States?
19831How, then, have we to provide a remedy?
19831How?
19831How?
19831I asked in this Senate, weeks ago:"What causes the peril that is now imminent at Fort Moultrie; is it the weakness of the garrison?"
19831I have the highest veneration for those gentlemen[ its authors]; but, sir, give me leave to demand, What right had they to say,_ We, the people_?
19831I say, then, shall we cling to the mere forms or idolize the name of Union, when its blessings are lost, after its spirit has fled?
19831I wonder if this is what caused the artillery companies to be ordered here, and the militia of this city to be organized?
19831If it has, from what clause of the Constitution does it derive that power?
19831If it was already established, what need was there of further establishment?
19831If so, then of what advantage is a compact of union to States?
19831If so, what right had any soldier to destroy that armament lest it should fall into the hands of Carolina?
19831If so, where is it?
19831If so, who made it?
19831If the Declaration of Independence be true( and who here gainsays it?
19831If the States be parties, as States, what are their rights, and what their respective covenants and stipulations?
19831If this action is once tolerated, where will it end?
19831If, sir, the seeds of disunion have been sown broadcast over this land, I ask by whose hand they have been scattered?
19831If, then, there be no such distinction or discrimination; if protection be the duty( and who will deny it?)
19831In danger of what?
19831In defending them, he had said, after calling for the reading of the credentials of delegates:"Can we, on this ground, form a national Government?
19831In the mean time, what has been its operation?
19831In the name of common sense, I ask how are we to fight in the Union?
19831In this state of the case, my friends, why is the country agitated?
19831In this state of the case, then, we turn and ask, What is the character of the Administration?
19831In what conceivable way, then, was it lost or alienated?
19831In what have we now, or ever, back to the earliest period of our history, sought to deprive the North of any advantage it possessed?
19831Is a measure in which we of the minority are to receive nothing a compromise?
19831Is it because our sun is declining to the horizon?
19831Is it doubtful that this would lead to extravagance, if not to corruption?
19831Is it enjoyed?
19831Is it intended that it is not a constitutional right, because it is not granted in the Constitution?
19831Is it land and houses?
19831Is it meant to be a right derived from the Constitution-- a grant made in the Constitution?
19831Is it not a libel upon the statesmen of that generation to attribute to their grave and solemn declarations a meaning so vapid and absurd?
19831Is it not denied?
19831Is it rational to suppose that the sovereign power shall be dragged before a court?
19831Is it so?
19831Is it taxable property?
19831Is it the defect of the Federal organization, of the fundamental law of our Union?
19831Is it the fault of our legislation here?
19831Is it the organization of the local government?
19831Is it to be expected that a compact thus broken in part, violated in its important features, will be regarded as binding in all else?
19831Is it to divide the South and West?
19831Is it vain boasting which renders you anxious to proclaim to the world that we buy our buckets, our rakes, and our shovels from you?
19831Is it well, is it wise, is it safe, to disregard these manifestations of public displeasure, though it be the displeasure of a minority?
19831Is not a declaration of war an overt act?
19831Is that seen in the diminished comfort of the world?
19831Is that seen in the diminished resources of the country?
19831Is the reproach meant against these, my friends from the South, who advocate Southern rights and State rights?
19831Is there a man here who dreads that the deliberations of this body are to be interrupted by an armed force?
19831Is there a solution offered here?
19831Is there an exception?
19831Is there an insurrection?
19831Is there any point of pride which prevents us from withdrawing that garrison?
19831Is there any political power to authorize such interference?
19831Is there no such case at present?
19831Is there such equality between the cases that the same policy must apply to each?
19831Is there wisdom, is there patriotism in the land?
19831Is this agitation in the two halls of Congress, in relation to the domestic institutions of the South, no subject for complaint?
19831Is this sectional organization, for the purpose of hostility to our portion of the Union, no subject for complaint?
19831Is this the happy expedient that is to preserve liberty?
19831Measure the consequences to us of your assumption, and ask yourselves whether, as a free, honorable, and brave people, you would submit to it?
19831Mr. Chairman, why have such repeated calls been made upon the South to rally to the rescue?
19831Mr. Henry''s objection was thus answered by Mr. Madison:"Who are parties to it[ the Constitution]?
19831Mr. Motley thus dilates on the subject:"Could language be more imperial?
19831Mr. President, is there such incompatibility of interest between the two sections of this country that they can not profitably live together?
19831Nay, did they form two countries, or one country?
19831Need I say I mean Calhoun?
19831Now, I believe-- may I not say I believe?
19831Now, what is the remedy?
19831Of the Constitution, he says:"Does it call itself a compact?
19831Of the second, those of whom I have last spoken, I ask, in the Constitution, reason, right, or justice, what is there to sustain your theory?
19831Of what is the army to be composed?
19831On the other hand, are they not their life- blood?
19831Or is it all these combined with the people who possess them?
19831Or is not the reverse exhibited?
19831Or should they not find there satisfactory evidence that their past course was founded in error?
19831Or was it built for the protection of Charleston Harbor; and was it armed to make that protection effective?
19831Or, did he not rather think that emigration was to be allowed to take its course, and soil and climate be permitted to decide the great question?
19831Ought we not to make use of the name of the people?
19831Resistance was impracticable, and none was attempted; the militia surrendered, and were confined as prisoners; but prisoners of what?
19831Shall class interests control the great policy of our country, and the voice of reason be drowned in the clamor of causeless excitement?
19831Shall it be after the fall, when the earth was covered with thorns, and man had to earn his bread in the sweat of his brow?
19831Shall it be then?
19831Shall objects like these be endangered by the impatience of petty ambition, the promptings of sectional interest, or the goadings of fanatic hate?
19831Shall the Rocky Mountains prove a dividing barrier to us?
19831Shall the good of the whole be surrendered to the voracious demands of the few?
19831Shall we allow this separation to be total?
19831Shall we claim no more from that which we have constituted for our own purposes, and which we support by draining our own means for its support?
19831Shall we preserve and transmit it to posterity?
19831She has no compromise to offer but the Constitution, and no concession or surrender to make...."Can this be done?
19831Should they not immediately cease from a course mischievous in every stage, and finally tending to the greatest catastrophe?
19831Such was the case of Texas; is there a parallel in Oregon?
19831Suppose it was found proper for our adoption, and becoming the government of_ the people of Virginia_, by what style should it be done?
19831That the Union must be preserved?
19831The Constitution of the United States was formed for domestic tranquillity; and how, then, are we to fight in the Union?
19831The good of mankind?
19831The pertinent question that occurs is, Why was so obvious an attribute of sovereignty not expressly renounced if it was intended to surrender it?
19831The proposition would be welcomed in Connecticut; and could we doubt of New Hampshire?
19831The question for consideration was, What course should be adopted for the future action of the army?
19831The question is, How are armies to be raised?
19831The question which now presents itself to the country is, What shall we do with events as they stand?
19831Then what is our policy?
19831Then, my friends, are we to allow events to drift onward to this fatal consummation?
19831There were laws that were to be enforced in the time of the American Revolution.... Did Lord Chatham go for enforcing those laws?
19831This morning, for the first time, it has been considered; and what of encouragement have we received?
19831Threats of Arrest.--Departure from Washington.--Indications of Public Anxiety.--"Will there be war?"
19831Threats of Arrest.--Departure from Washington.--Indications of Public Anxiety.--"Will there be war?"
19831To the calm judgment of mankind is submitted the question, Who was responsible for the war between the States?
19831To what issue are you now pressing us?
19831To what purpose would it be to authorize suits against States for the debts they owe?
19831To whom did those arms belong?
19831To whom, in fine,_ could_ the States have surrendered their sovereignty?
19831Under what circumstances?
19831Was an armament put into it for such a purpose?
19831Was it an insurrection?
19831Was it not liable to the bondholders?]
19831Was it practicable?...
19831Was that fort built to make war upon Carolina?
19831Was this sentiment real or feigned?
19831What Southern Senator, during this whole session, has attacked any portion, or any interest, of the North?
19831What Southern man would wish it less by one of the Northern names of which it is composed?
19831What assurance have we there for the safety of the country?
19831What circumstances?
19831What conclusion is to be drawn from such action?
19831What course would then have remained to the Southern States?
19831What does that mean?
19831What is a State?
19831What is it, I say, which can be counted in the balance on our side against the performance of that duty which is imposed upon us?
19831What is meant by a constitutional right?
19831What is the Constitution of the United States?
19831What is the Executive department doing?
19831What is the exception to it?
19831What is the message before us?
19831What new hope for mankind is to be found in written constitutions, what remedy which did not exist under kings or emperors?
19831What power does Congress possess in this connection?
19831What resource for justice-- what assurance of tranquillity-- what guarantee of safety-- now remained for the South?
19831What right had Congress then, or what right has it now, to abdicate any power conferred upon it as trustee of the States?
19831What shall we say to our people when we come to meet this state of facts?
19831What strength is there in bills of rights-- in limitations of power?
19831What was the condition of things?
19831What was then the consequence?
19831What, Senators, to- day is the condition of the country?
19831What, my friends, must be the consequences?
19831What, then, is the duty of the State of New York?
19831What, then, is their standard?
19831When before in the history of our land was it that a mob could resist the sound public opinion of the country?
19831When before was it that an unarmed magistrate had not the power, by crying,"I command the peace,"to quell a mob in any portion of the land?
19831When, sir, did that ever happen?
19831When, where, or how, has she been laggard or deserter?
19831Where does he get it?
19831Where does he get the"clear and undeniable"power to use the force of the United States in the manner he there proposes?
19831Where is the grant?
19831Where is the judge who is to sit over the court to try natural rights?
19831Where is the value of constitutional liberty?
19831Where was the host of men who had declared that an army marching to invade the Southern States should first pass over their dead bodies?
19831Where will you go and not meet some monument to inspire such sentiments?
19831Where, then, is it?
19831Where, then, is there any room for a controversy in regard to the actual command, and what profit can there be in it?
19831Who ever heard of a compact to which there were no parties?
19831Who is to define them?
19831Who would keep a flower, which had lost its beauty and its fragrance, and in their stead had formed a seed- vessel containing the deadliest poison?
19831Why did I make that statement?
19831Why is it that Texas is referred to, and treated as a Southern measure merely, though its northern latitude is 42 °?
19831Why is it that the peace of the country is disturbed in order that one people may judge of what another people may do?
19831Why is it, then, I say, that you are thus agitated in relation to the domestic affairs of other communities?
19831Why may we not bring the manufacturers to the side of agriculture, and commerce, too, the ready servant of both?
19831Why should we care whether they go into other Territories or not?
19831Why was it not recalled?
19831Why was it withheld during the intervening twenty- three days?
19831Why were they seized?
19831Why, then, I would ask, do we see these lengthened shadows which follow in the course of our political history?
19831Why, then, have you agitators?
19831Why, then, shall we talk about natural rights?
19831Why, then, should we be bound to receive such petitions to the detriment of the public business; or, rather, why are they presented?
19831Why, then,_ as property_, insist on holding it by an armed garrison?
19831Will Mr. Lincoln disregard the international writ of_ habeas corpus_ served by Great Britain?
19831Will any one ask me, then, how a State is to be held to the fulfillment of its obligations?
19831Will any one suppose that Congress then meant by non- intervention that Congress should legislate in no regard in respect to property in slaves?
19831Will it not destroy it?
19831Will you now make an appeal to the Supreme Being, and call on Him to guarantee your observance of this_ compact_?
19831Will you sit with sublime indifference and allow events to shape themselves?
19831With all due allowance for their zeal, we ask, how do they decide that it is a sin?
19831Would any gentleman deny this?...
19831Would it not, between foreign nations-- nations not bound together and restrained as we are by compact-- would it not, I say, be just cause for war?
19831Would the admission of the right of a State to resume the grants it had made, have led to the exercise of that right for light and trivial causes?
19831Would this have been to maintain the Union formed by the States?
19831You are practical people, and may ask, How is that contest to be avoided?
19831You know it is so, gentlemen; and yet, have we not a common country?
19831You sent your adjutant-( inspector?)
19831[ 53] Does it call itself a league, a confederacy, a subsisting treaty between the States?
19831[ 96] Again, on a subsequent occasion, speaking of an appeal to force, Mr. Madison said:"Was such a remedy eligible?
19831_ All powers not delegated_, etc., what does it mean?
19831_ Insurrection, An_, was it?
19831_ Power of amendment_, special examination of, 195; what is the Constitution?
19831_ Right of the Federal troops to enter a State_, 411; words of the Constitution, 411; how could they be sent to overrule the will of the people?
19831_ War between the Slates_, who was responsible for?
19831and where are their rights, covenants, and stipulations expressed?
19831but, Is this a town of my brethren?
19831or who ever heard of a compact made by a single party with himself?
19831or, Was Secession a Constitutional Right?"]
43329''Do you think Sherman will treat with you?'' 43329 ''What force is this?''
43329A. M. K.Can the North expect impartial history to accept its miserable subterfuge of"disloyalty,"by which such testimony as this is now excluded?
4332910, and of New Orleans?
43329And how was this to be enumerated among the high crimes which caused the colonies to sever their connection with the mother country?
43329Are we called upon to settle what every body said from 1847 down to this date?
43329Are we to accept the imputation of error to Mr. Davis alone?
43329But are the issues of the war to be subjected to candid and impartial legal adjudication?
43329But can a candid world credit the charge of cruelty against the South?
43329But if it were otherwise; if they had neglected to assert a right; would that destroy it?
43329But if there was any thing"cruel and inhuman"in this deficiency,_ whose fault_ was it?
43329But is it true that, in this war, the men of property have shrunk from the ordeal of the battle- field?
43329But suppose Kentucky asserts her sovereignty, and chooses to unite with the South, what, then, becomes of State Sovereignty and State allegiance?
43329But suppose the same test should be applied to General Johnston; would there not be found an equal wanting of_ results_?
43329But waiving that, is it squatter sovereignty in its broadest sense?
43329But was this the only source of information, or was the impression otherwise sustained?
43329But what was his error after assumption of the Presidency?
43329But would the most stupid Bourbon partisan, therefore, call in question the mighty genius of Napoleon?
43329But, impartial history will ask, whence come these calumnies against the great, pure, and pious leader of a brave people, in a struggle for liberty?
43329But, pray, what one of those measures was it which excited the mob so described?
43329But, sir, what is the danger which now besets the Democratic party?
43329Can it be believed that the President would have taken that step, if satisfied of Johnston''s purpose to deliver battle for Atlanta?
43329Can the honorable gentleman from Mississippi say as much?
43329Can there be but one interpretation of the motives of those who rejected this noble offer?
43329Could any man say that this power was not retained by the States, since it was not given away?"
43329Could any man say, no?
43329Could that be in the face of a struggle that we were constantly carrying on against the opponents of the fugitive slave law?
43329Could there have been a more becoming and dignified exercise of the vaunted right of self- government?
43329Davis''party?''
43329Did I not offer to resign the only chairmanship of a committee I had if the Senate would confer it upon him?
43329Did Illinois then adopt my theory of protection in the Territories, or of the right of State secession?
43329Did Mr. Yancey, in his speech delivered at Charleston, justify the conclusions which the Senator draws from this letter?
43329Did Taylor''s subsequent career vindicate the President or the critics?
43329Did he admit them to be correct?
43329Did it mean that the Territories were to elect?
43329Did she receive it?
43329Does any one suspect the Confederate Government of deliberately stinting its own soldiers?
43329Does he not see that there is no justice in assuming a vote for an individual to be the entire adoption of his opinions?
43329Does it refer to organization of the Territory?
43329Does the Senator ask me for an answer?
43329Especially, what had all this to do with what he styled an indictment against him?
43329For what was our Government instituted?
43329Granting that General Johnston would have sought to hold Atlanta, can it be believed that the ultimate result would have been different?
43329Had the Declaration announced that the negroes were free and equal, how was the prince to be arraigned for raising up insurrection among them?
43329Has it been with the hope of sowing dissensions between us and our Western friends?
43329Has patriotism ceased to be a virtue, and is narrow sectionalism no longer to be counted a crime?
43329Have I ever promulgated a doctrine which indicated that if my friends were in power, I would sacrifice every other wing of the Democratic party?
43329Have I, at this or any other period of my acquaintance with him, done any thing to justify him in attributing that opinion to me?
43329Have the Democracy divided on that?
43329Have the purposes for which our Union was formed lost their value?
43329Have they divided on the resolutions of the States in 1840, or 1844, or 1848?
43329Have we so degenerated that we can no longer emulate their virtues?
43329He demanded, if powers not given were retained by implication?
43329He hurriedly inquired, as he listened to the tramp of the coming horsemen:"''What troops are these?''
43329How could it be possible, under such circumstances, to prevent suffering among the prisoners?
43329How could that be?
43329How do you propose to obtain terms?''
43329How will you reach Sherman?''
43329How, then, can it be pretended that it was"cruel and inhuman"to prisoners whom it fed as well?
43329If Atlanta should be surrendered, where would General Johnston expect to give battle?
43329If I had not made the offer, why did the Federal authorities send transportation to Savannah for ten or fifteen thousand men?
43329If I made the offer, based only on equivalents, why did the same transportation carry down for delivery only three thousand men?
43329If his opponents be the very small minority which he describes, what fear has he of persecution or proscription?
43329If no action upon the question was the prevailing opinion, what does the legislation mean?
43329If sovereignty passed by the recognition of the fact, how did he propose, by congressional act, to annul the territorial existence of Utah?
43329If the supply was inadequate or ill- assorted, we again ask, are_ we_ to be charged with cruelty and inhumanity?
43329If they had failed at some time to claim this protection, are they to be estopped, in all time to come, from claiming it?
43329In reply to the question of Mr. Davis,"General, how do you feel?"
43329Incapacity of the Federal Government to enact any law for the protection of slave property anywhere?
43329Is it a declaration that the inhabitants of a Territory can exercise all the powers of a State?
43329Is it so?
43329Is it, as has been asserted, the doctrine of intervention by Congress, and is that doctrine new?
43329Is the Senator answered?
43329Is the firm and constant support of Lee, of Sidney Johnston, of Jackson, and of Early to be accounted as nothing?
43329It may be asked, Why did Mr. Davis suffer this suspicion, when the proof of its injustice might have been so easily adduced?
43329More important still, what is the evidence?
43329Need we pursue this subject further?
43329Now, what is the"inexorable logic"of this train of evidence?
43329Of Alabama, led by the brilliant genius of Mr. Yancey?
43329Of what avail were the malignity, the misrepresentation, and the unrelenting vindictiveness of England against Napoleon?
43329Of_ whom_ is the cruelty and inhumanity to be alleged?
43329On what ground does the Senator now put it?...
43329Pray, sir, what had all this to do with the question?
43329Pray, what can this mean?
43329Shall the Rocky Mountains prove a dividing barrier to us?
43329Shall we preserve and transmit it to posterity?
43329Should secession be legally justified, what justification could the North claim, that is rightfully denied to Russia in her conduct towards Poland?
43329Squatter sovereignty?
43329The question shall not be, who fired the first shot?
43329The real point is, could not this Union have been made permanent by timely settlement, instead of cemented by fraternal blood and military rule?
43329Then how do the people of a State decide the question of what shall be property within the State?
43329Then, how did the South become responsible for the doctrine of General Cass, by consenting to his nomination in 1848, and supporting his election?
43329Then, where is this spirit of proscription, the complaint of which has constituted some hours of his speech?
43329To the profound erudition and philosophical genius of that eminent writer, as conspicuously displayed in his work entitled,"Is Davis a Traitor?"
43329To you would be presented the question, Will you allow the Constitutional Union to be changed into the despotism of a majority?
43329Under such circumstances, how could there be that unity and coöperation, without which the cause was preordained to failure?
43329Was President Davis to call twenty into existence, fit to command armies, when Napoleon declared his armies did not afford half a dozen?
43329Was it non- action in the District of Columbia?
43329Was there reason to believe that any better result would follow from a repetition of the offensive?
43329Was this the entertainment to which we were invited?
43329Was, then, the Western army to lie idle, awaiting the disposition and convenience of one man?
43329Were the patriots of Western Virginia, thousands of whom made heroic sacrifices, to be abandoned without an effort for their rescue?
43329What does it say?
43329What does"may elect"mean?
43329What is the question on which the Democracy are divided?
43329What plea should England need for her outrages upon Ireland?
43329What revisory function had we, if they, through their representatives, had full power to act on all such subjects whatsoever?
43329What, then, is the necessary inference?
43329When asked,"Why not let the South go?"
43329Where better arrangements to facilitate commerce?
43329Where does he get all this information?
43329Where else will one find a more happy union of magnificence and comfort?
43329Where is their right to do as they please?
43329Where so much of industry with so little noise and bustle?
43329Where were they?
43329Where, in a phrase, so much effected in proportion to the means employed?
43329Where, then, shall we get our revenue?_"And the united North reëchoed:"_ Let the South go!
43329Where, then, shall we look for the bounties and monopolies which have so enriched us at the expense of those improvident, unsuspecting Southerners?
43329Whether or not the use of that letter was justifiable, how is it to be assumed that the Southern States are bound by any opinion there enunciated?
43329Who can now doubt which was the better and more logical theory?
43329Who has advanced any such doctrine?
43329Who has the right to gainsay it?
43329Who may elect?
43329Who would undertake to show the Senator that he was in error?
43329Why did the States confer upon the Federal Government the great functions which it possesses?
43329Why the frequent reference to the conduct of the South on the Texas question?
43329Will our votes on test questions sustain it?
43329Will the North approve this raising of a doubt as to its own justification, merely in the hope of vengeance upon one who is powerless for injury?
43329Will you become the subjects of a hostile Government?
43329With all these things fresh in mind, what did they mean?
43329With what justice, then, can it be charged that Mr. Davis retained in command an officer proven to be incompetent?
43329Would any gentleman deny this?
43329Would not this undeserved exaltation have been so much unreasonable criticism and undeserved blame?"
43329You are practical people, and may ask, How is that contest to be avoided?
43329but,_ who offered the first aggression?
43329or of South Carolina, under the counsels of Messrs. Rhett and Orr, and the_ Charleston Mercury_?
43329or will you, outside of the Union, assert the equality, the liberty and sovereignty to which you were born?
43329that he realized the inextinguishable nature of English hostility, or anticipated the numerous perfidies of Austria?
5388A what?
5388Ai n''t you never been to Boston?
5388Ain''you gwineter''low Hester an''me to wuk fo''you?
5388And do you, sir?

5388And what is that?
5388And you are from New England?
5388And you never set eyes on the Brice house, opposite the Common, with the swelled front? 5388 Are you a slave- owner, sir?"
5388But the slave, sir? 5388 But there was a chance, Mr. Whipple--""A chance of what?"
5388But you''ll show me her letters, wo n''t you?
5388By the way, Lige, how''s that boy, Tato? 5388 Callatin''to go to work?"
5388Can you walk?
5388Carvel, have n''t you and I quarrelled enough on that subject?
5388Carvel, what the devil''s the matter with you, sir?
5388Colonel Carvel hires you, does n''t he? 5388 Colonel,"remarked Captain Lige,"what''s this I heard on the levee just now about your shootin''at a man named Babcock on the steps here?"
5388Colonel,said Mr. Whipple,"is that true?"
5388Come in on the''Louisiana''?
5388Come, Lige, would you take him?
5388Do you work here?
5388Ever hear of the Liberator?
5388Friends in town?
5388Good Lord,said Colonel Carvel,"if the conservative people of the North act this way when they see a slave sale, what will the Abolitionists do?
5388Has he?
5388Have you the exact date about you, mother?
5388Have you, too, been up before Miss Crane''s Commission?
5388Her pa do n''t ruin her I eh, Ephum? 5388 How many friends has he?"
5388How''s my little sweetheart, Ephum?
5388It was quite a hot- headed business for one of the staid Brices, was n''t it?
5388Know the Judge?
5388Let me see,said Miss Crane, innocently;"who was it one of them Salters girls married, and lived across the way from the meetin''-house?"
5388Mr. Brice, did you, or did you not, buy a woman at auction to- day?
5388Oh,said she,"are you employed here?"
5388Pray, ma''am,he said,"what have you done with your slave?"
5388Reckon you do n''t come from anywhere round here?
5388Sit down, Mr. Brice,he said;"mild weather for November, eh?
5388So they''re coming here?
5388So you want me to board you?
5388Then why in thunder does n''t he come in?
5388Wal, Mr. Brice, this is an interesting show now, ai n''t it? 5388 Was n''t I a good friend of your father''s?
5388Well, Nancy?
5388Well, my dear,asked the lady, at length,"what do you think of it all?"
5388Well, sir,he said,"what were his views, then?"
5388Well, sonny, scared of mules, are you?
5388Well, well,he said, kissing her,"thought you''d surprise me, eh, Jinny?"
5388Whaffor you stannin''dere, Hester?
5388What are you about, sir?
5388What are you givin''us? 5388 What business was you callatin''to grapple with?"
5388What can you do, sonny?
5388What date, Stephen?
5388What did you do with this person?
5388What did you do?
5388What do you think of him?
5388What have you heard?
5388What is your name?
5388What office was you going into?
5388What prejudices, sir?
5388What were you doing there?
5388What''ll you give me?
5388What''s the matter, Clarence?
5388What, skeered on''em?
5388What?
5388Where do you come from?
5388Where is Uncle Comyn?
5388Who is that?
5388Who''s this?
5388Why did n''t you let me know that you were coming home?
5388Why did n''t your mother let me know that she was coming?
5388Why not, Lige?
5388Why, Captain Lige,cried the Colonel, without ceremony,"and how do you find yourself to- day, suh?
5388Would you like work here?
5388Yes, Nancy?
5388Yes?
5388You be from Willesden, eh?
5388You did n''t happen to attend the nigger auction this morning when you were at the court?
5388You own a slave? 5388 You say that you are an Abolitionist?"
5388You say you are employed by Mr. Carvel, and refuse to do what I ask?
5388''My dear fellow,''he cried,''how long are you to be in town?''
5388--Wasn''t that like Atterbury?"
5388A good trip from Orleans?
5388Above him a sash screamed as it opened, and he heard Mr. Renault''s voice say, to some person below:"Is that you, Capitaine Grant?"
5388And let Colfax have the girl?
5388And over what?
5388And so you want to become a lawyer?"
5388And yet-- suppose Mr. Colfax did not get her?
5388And you''ve never heard tell of the Brice homestead, at Westbury, that was Colonel Wilton Brice''s, who fought in the Revolution?
5388And, by the way, what was it?"
5388Any gals down Boston- way to beat her?
5388Are you shocked, sir?"
5388Brice?"
5388But what are these goings- on?"
5388But what d''ye think of him for a real Southern gentleman?"
5388But what good does it do him?
5388But what shall we say of Stephen Brice?
5388But why this politeness?
5388But you''ll send it to her?"
5388Callatin''to buy her?"
5388Can a diamond brooch shine on a calico gown?
5388Cluyme?"
5388Could it be one with his native New England?
5388Did Congress assemble from the Antipodes?
5388Did I not understand you to approve of Mr. Brice''s ownership?"
5388Did n''t I ask you to come here and go into my office?"
5388Do you know him?"
5388Do you remember it, sir?"
5388Easters where the deuce is that good- for- nothing husband of yours?"
5388Eight hundred?"
5388Family is a good thing, but of what use is a crest without the panels on which to paint it?
5388Garrison?"
5388Hood?"
5388How old did you say this was?"
5388I ask you, ai n''t she a splendid creature?"
5388Is it eight hundred?"
5388Is n''t that so, sonny?"
5388Renault?"
5388Then find Mr. Carvel, wo n''t you, please?
5388Was it possible that these people were coming to a slave auction?
5388Was n''t the great, ugly river and dirty city at the end of the earth, to be written about in Boston journals?
5388What am I bid?"
5388What is your opinion, sir, on the subject of holding human beings in bondage?"
5388What shall we do when that is gone?
5388What was the attendant doing now?
5388What''ll you give, Alf?
5388Where are they all?
5388Where''s Ephum?
5388Whipple?"
5388Whipple?"
5388Would he succeed?
5388You read the papers?"
5388You will come to supper?"
5388You, a mere boy, have bought a negress?"
5388cried Stephen, when they had reached their room after tea,"was n''t that meal a fearful experience?
5388cried the spinster:"not Ezra Spauldin''?"
44970''You were? 44970 A shade- tail,"said he, meditatively,--"how should I know?
44970About what? 44970 And it''s nearly all white, and would make an excellent mark for some Johnny to shoot at, eh?"
44970And what would you do if you were?
44970Andy, do you think that fellow''s gun went off by accident, or was the rascal trying to hurt somebody?
44970Andy, what is a shade- tail?
44970Are those your orders?
44970Auntie, you''ve got a good many little folks to look after, have n''t you?
44970Beautiful night, Johnny, is n''t it?
44970Boys, it begins to look a little dubious, do n''t it? 44970 Boys, what are you trying to do?"
44970But is n''t it rather large?
44970But where are your cartridges?
44970By what right or authority, sir, do you presume to tell me that a pig is like an oyster?
44970Can you shoot?
44970General, shall we unsling knapsacks?
44970Harry, for pity''s sake, have you any water?
44970Harry, would n''t you like to go out on picket with us to- morrow? 44970 Harry,"said Lieutenant Dougal,"I have n''t any tin cup, and when you get your coffee cooked, I believe I''ll share it with you; may I?"
44970Has any of you fellows back there some coffee to trade for tobacco? 44970 How in the name of the American eagle is a man going to fight the battles of his country in such a uniform as this?
44970How''s Bony this morning, Andy?
44970I asked whether you could tell me what a shade- tail is?
44970It_ was_ a fowl trick, after all, Harry, was n''t it?
44970Major, you do n''t expect us drummer- boys to turn out, do you?
44970Rather a warm day for work in a cornfield, is n''t it, Joe?
44970Rather late in the morning to make such an offer, is n''t it? 44970 Say, Captain, tell us where are we going?"
44970See that hole? 44970 Well, Johnny?"
44970Well, what in the mischief''s up now?
44970Well, where is he? 44970 Well, your fifers have fifes, have n''t they?
44970Well,said Andy,"and what if he does?
44970Well,said I,"we caught those pigs, anyhow, did n''t we?
44970What are you going to do with that bottle?
44970What would you get at? 44970 What''s he doing down there in that hole?"
44970What''s up, fellows?
44970Where are we going, Pompey? 44970 Where are we going?"
44970Where did you get that chicken, Corporal?
44970Where is he?
44970Where''s my cap?
44970Where?
44970Who''s afraid of the Louisiana Tigers? 44970 Why did n''t they let us fight?
44970Why, Harry, is that you? 44970 Why, Smith,"said I,"is this you?
44970Why, do n''t you see? 44970 Why,"said the lieutenant,"what are you crying for, you big baby, you?"
44970Would you enlist, Andy, if your father would consent? 44970 You see the commissary yonder?"
44970_ Meat_ jumping around here? 44970 ''And if I might be so bold as to ask-- how did you generally kill them?'' 44970 ''I want dis yere water for Gen''l Grant; an''ai n''t he a commandin''dis yere army, or am you?'' 44970 ( You remember Warrenton? 44970 ***** And-- Andy? 44970 About the spring- fever, or about the war?
44970And I, too, looked; but where was Andy?
44970And beneath the starry flag We shall breathe the air again--""What''s that?"
44970And do n''t you remember how excited_ you_ were when the news came about Fort Sumter last spring?
44970And do n''t you think it''s pretty nearly time we should pay him back?
44970And how many do you think there were?
44970And the daughters, where were they?
44970And where in the world is the regiment?"
44970And why not, my boy?"
44970Andy and I thought, as we were driving in our tent- pins:"That''s pretty hard now, is n''t it?
44970Anybody know where Jim McFadden is?"
44970Are_ you_ there?"
44970Ay, the position is saved; but where is our corps?
44970But the wars of Cæsar and the siege of Troy, what are they when compared with the great war now being waged in our own time and country?
44970But what is to be done for a sick man whose only choice of diet must be made from pork, beans, sugar, and hard- tack?
44970But where have you been?
44970But where is he?
44970But where shall I get water to make the coffee with?
44970But, on consideration, I believe I would say,''Gentlemen, will you have a cigár?''"
44970Coming up quietly behind him, I laid my hand on his shoulder with:"Andy, old boy, have I found you at last?
44970Could n''t we somehow get a shelter and something to eat for the poor souls?"
44970Did he get cross?
44970Did he wish this cruel war was over?
44970Did n''t I watch your feet?
44970Did n''t you shoot just now?"
44970Did they steal his goods?
44970Did ye hear whar dey is now?''
44970Did you never eat frogs?"
44970Didn''I say better git off''n dat dar mule o''mine?
44970Do n''t you see?
44970Do n''t you see?
44970Do you ask how?
44970Do you remember the words well enough to repeat it?"
44970Do you see that?
44970Does he know me?
44970Ever had this, that, and the other disease?"
44970Every time you come up to this end of your beat, speak to me, will you?
44970Eyes good?
44970For the winter is past; the sweet breath of spring comes balmily up from the south, and the whole army is on the move,--whither?
44970Going to join the cavalry?"
44970Had he children at home, may be, in the far- off South?
44970Home?
44970Homesick?
44970How could he after so bold a dash into the horse- market?
44970How did we spend our time in winter quarters, do you ask?
44970How is it, now?
44970I fell to wondering, as I watched him, what sort of man he was?
44970I knew very well where McFadden was, for was n''t he lying right beside me in the grass?
44970In the midst of the excitement, father came in from the field and greeted me with,"Why, my boy, where did_ you_ come from?"
44970It concerns a question of emphasis, or rather, perhaps, of inflection, and it is this: Would you say,''Gentlemen, will you have a cigár?''
44970Just you keep an eye on my horse, will you?"
44970KILLED, WOUNDED, OR MISSING?
44970KILLED, WOUNDED, OR MISSING?
44970May I inquire what may be the question under discussion?"
44970Night set in, and we began to wonder, in all the simplicity of new troops, whether Uncle Sam expected us to march all night as well as all day?
44970Now that was rather hard, was n''t it?
44970Now why could n''t we catch and tame a shade- tail?"
44970Or a father and mother?
44970Or, may be,_ you_ had the spring- fever then?"
44970Shall we strike up a tent, or bunk down here under the pines?"
44970So there was not going to be any battle after all, then?
44970That would n''t be nearly so nice, would it?"
44970That''s fair and square, is n''t it?"
44970The case is-- let''s see; what''ll we call it?
44970The sutler seldom enjoyed much respect, as how could he when he flourished and fattened on our hungry stomachs?
44970Upon which up comes the corporal of the guard on a full trot, with his gun at a right- shoulder shift, and saying,--"Well, what''s up?"
44970Was it the moonlight so wondrously flashing?
44970We had no water for thirty- six hours, and, of course, no coffee; and what is life to a soldier without coffee?
44970Well, Major, did you ever kill anybody?''
44970Well, one man came up to me, and says he:"''Major, you were in the war, were n''t you?''
44970Were the sons in the war?
44970Whar you goin''dar?
44970Whar you gwine wid dat dar mule o''mine?
44970What cared we for bounty?
44970What do you mean?
44970What in the name of General Jackson did you come to the army for, if you ai n''t a- going to obey orders?"
44970What is a shade- tail?"
44970What they saw was only this-- that they wanted somebody to raid, and who could be a fitter subject than the sutler?
44970What was to be done?
44970What would they do with a mere boy like you?
44970What''s to hinder him?"
44970What''s up?"
44970Where are you hurt?"
44970Where are you hurt?"
44970Where is Jimmy Lucas?"
44970Where were the boys who, but a week before, had marched with us through those same fragrant fields, blithe as a sunshiny morn in May?
44970Where_ did_ it get to, anyhow?
44970Which will you do?"
44970Who are you?"
44970Who goes there?"
44970Who goes there?"
44970Why did not the officers punish the men for doing this?
44970Why did we not build winter- quarters, do you ask?
44970Why what do you mean?"
44970Why, where in the world are we going this time of year?
44970Why_ will_ he make me all this trouble?
44970Will you do it?"
44970Young or old?
44970_ Wo n''t_ you let me go?
44970and an oft- repeated"What do you think of this, boys?"
44970and gets his arm around my neck, is it any wonder?
44970and the"Star- Spangled Banner,"and"Away Down South in Dixie,"and-- in short, what in the world was a poor boy to do?
44970and would they ever come back again and set up their household gods in the good old place once more?
44970exclaimed I,"what in the name of all conscience do you want with a horse?
44970or''Gentlemen, will you have a cigàr?''"
44970said Andy, wiping the perspiration from his face,"what shall we do now?
44970said I, peering through the bushes,"is that you?"
44970was it the night- wind that rustled the leaves?
44970what do you think of this?
44970where did_ you_ come from?"
58617Am I to go up through the roof or down through the floor?
58617An artist?
58617Are you not a Yankee spy?
58617Are you satisfied?
58617C.S.A.?
58617Camp Chase? 58617 Can I help you in any way?"
58617Colonel,said I,"what are you thinking about?
58617Delusion, sir?
58617Did you say your camp lay there?
58617Do you believe me now?
58617Do you forgive me,I asked, asking the old question,"for bringing so much trouble upon Fort Defiance?"
58617Do you suppose that I am without influence in my father''s house?
58617Do you think that my father looks upon this fort, the weapons in it and the flag over it, as a mere whim? 58617 Do you think the colonel could do as well?"
58617Escape, Miss Hetherill?
58617For my sake only?
58617Have you any weapons on you?
58617How can I trust you?
58617How can I, who need it so much myself, give anybody help?
58617How could I execute him?
58617How do you know?
58617How long a start of us has the colonel?
58617How much longer do you expect to serve him?
58617How shall we go about it?
58617I''m a spy upon you, am I?
58617If it had been the colonel and he had got the first chance and fired at you, what would you have done, doctor?
58617Is what Mr. West tells me true? 58617 Mean?"
58617Miss Grace is the colonel''s daughter, is she not?
58617Miss Hetherill,I said, speaking suddenly from impulse,"why does your father cherish this delusion?
58617Mr. Crothers,I asked,"am I to be shot or hanged?"
58617Mr. Crothers,I began again,"do you think I am alarmed?"
58617So say you all?
58617The matter?
58617Then you are not sorry I came?
58617Was he well?
58617Well, am I to be shot to- day, colonel?
58617What are your orders, colonel?
58617What do you call that?
58617What do you expect?
58617What do you mean? 58617 What is it, colonel?"
58617What is your name?
58617What is your occupation?
58617What is your verdict, gentlemen?
58617What proof can you give that you are not?
58617What road did the colonel take?
58617What sort of a man do you take me to be?
58617What were you doing on these mountains?
58617What were you doing within our lines in civilian''s dress?
58617What''s the hut?
58617What''s the matter down there?
58617What''s the matter?
58617What''s this? 58617 What?
58617Where would I go? 58617 Who comes oftener than I?"
58617Whose lines?
58617Why did you do that?
58617Why did you not escape when I gave you the chance?
58617Why do you go away, colonel?
58617Why were you approaching Fort Defiance?
58617Why, what does that mean?
58617Will you or will you not plead to the charge?
58617Will you plead to this very grave charge against you?
58617Would you have me think of myself alone?
58617Yes; but what am I to do?
58617You are sorry I am going?
58617You do not deny making to me the proposition that we surrender to the Federal government?
58617You do not seem to be aware of your position?
58617You heard what my father said about you in his delirium?
58617You paint, you draw things?
58617Your age?
58617Your home?
58617A likely enough supposition, anyway, for what girl of such appearance could be here unless his daughter?
58617Am I still master of my own?"
58617Ambrose?"
58617Ambrose?"
58617Are you crazy?"
58617Crothers?"
58617Do n''t I know that they have given up?
58617Do you feel worse?"
58617East or west, north or south?
58617I ask you again, what have you to say about it?"
58617I asked,"Where''s the proof?"
58617Is it not so, Crothers?"
58617Is not that true, sir?"
58617Is this the truth?"
58617Shall we take a stroll up there together?"
58617What are you dreaming of?
58617What chance have we ever to carry our cause through to success?"
58617What have you to say against it?"
58617What made you rush off in such haste?
58617What may I do?"
58617Why does he not go and live among his kind?"
58617Will you promise me that?"
58617Will you say what brought you into these mountains?"
58617what the deuce was that?"
58617what''s this?"
7036And did n''t you know that I meant for you to hunt them up?
7036And do n''t you know, because you go to that church, that you will go to heaven when you die?
7036And so the heartless woman''s sent for her child at last, has she?
7036Are you still fully agreed to allow the church to consider the matter for you?
7036But how about his home in Blue Mountain?
7036Can I be with you too?
7036Could it be possible,he said to Mrs. Kauffman,"that my mother''s reason for attending the meeting was that she was interested in spiritual things?"
7036Did you see the baby''s large brown eyes?
7036Do you mean,Edwin asked, his eyes opening wide in wonder,"that one can get converted right there at the meeting?"
7036How about his wages and schooling?
7036I guess you felt like saying a prayer about the time you found yourself in hell, did n''t you?
7036If Santa Claus does n''t make the toys up there, where does he make them?
7036Is all that in the Bible?
7036Is that the prayer that I prayed when I was converted?
7036Shall not God search this out? 7036 Well, if Blue Mountain is n''t the home of St. Nick, what is it?"
7036What do you mean by talking with God?
7036What do you mean by''church''?
7036Why is it so hard,he cried,"to discover the secret that is causing me all this worry and trouble?"
7036Why,do you ask?
7036could this difference be?
7036After Frank had explained that such a thing was possible, Edwin exclaimed:"Who can make such a prayer?
7036And how hot would be that fire that I have heard so much about from profane tongues?
7036And when he asked simply,"What is a prayer- meeting?"
7036At the sight of his mother''s face and the sound of her words, two thoughts flashed through his mind:"Have I done anything to displease her?"
7036But Edwin did not know, so he said,"Do you mean that you have prayer- meeting every Sunday?"
7036But how am I to get converted, since I must pray and since I can not pray until I get converted?"
7036But how dare you wish yourself dead?
7036CHAPTER XVI A REVELATION ON TOBACCO Who is it that will doubt The care of Heaven, or think the immortal Pow''rs are slow?
7036Ca n''t you let that boy alone?
7036Can it be that I must die before I know what it is?"
7036Did n''t he get anything at all?"
7036Do n''t you know that there is a God over us who hears every word we say?"
7036Do n''t you think that it would be all right now if we divided this dinner in halves?
7036Do you hear?"
7036Do you know of any one who can?"
7036Do you remember the time when Elmer took the pebbles from my pocket in the night time?
7036During my childhood I held nothing against her for all the things I suffered, and why should I now?"
7036Edwin asked in astonishment;"and is it so that God''s Son once lived upon this earth?"
7036Edwin?
7036Elmer''s hand was already in the pocket containing the treasured stones, and Edwin could not help exclaiming:"What are you doing there, Elmer?
7036God surely has some way to let us understand; for if he did n''t what would there be to hinder every person on earth from going to hell?
7036He listened to their remarks as they examined in turn the beautiful gifts, and then-- was it possible?
7036He thought he heard the youngest child in a tone of disappointment saying,"Why, where are Ed''s stocking and things?
7036How can I wait until Thursday night?"
7036How do you suppose that we could give it a mother''s care?
7036I can see it all now, and the assurance that we are going aright is that we are obedient to God?"
7036If God could hear everything, what must he think of the people who would talk about him thus?
7036Immediately Edwin turned to Acts 16: 30, 31, and read the jailer''s words to Paul and Silas,"Sirs, what must I do to be saved?"
7036In James 5:14, 15, he read,"Is any sick among you?
7036In obedience to the commanding voice of the frightful being, Edwin went breathlessly forward and listened to the words:"Do you see that horse?
7036Is that all you''ve learned at the poorhouse?
7036Is there anything that I ought to do so as to be better able to go through the operation?"
7036Many times he thought of the meeting, and as often he asked himself:"Is there anything special that I can do to help in this matter?
7036Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?
7036Now tell me, if this is true, how and where does a person get his start?"
7036Now, how is it that you, whom I never gave credit for knowing anything, have never caused me any anxiety or trouble in any way?
7036Replying to him, the minister asked:"Do n''t you think the baptism in your infancy amounted to anything?"
7036Shut your mouth I say and let him have those stones if he wants them, for what are they worth, anyway?"
7036Still within his heart there was another question that had not been answered:"How can I get this assurance within my own heart?"
7036Then as the circles of blue smoke began to arise in the air, Frank asked:"Did you feel or hear over at your place anything of the earthquake?"
7036Then she added,"Why is it on such things you can talk so well and on others you seem so dull?"
7036Turning suddenly to his friend, he said:"By what means does a person become able to pray such a prayer?"
7036Was it Elmer''s fault?
7036Was it like you thought it would be?"
7036Was it the fault of Elmer that such things should be?
7036What are those little old stones good for, anyway?
7036What can it all mean?"
7036What is a mother''s love?
7036When the minister went to him, it was with these words:"Edwin, do you still feel your desire to preach the gospel?"
7036Why?
7036Will you be glad to see your mother?"
7036Without rising or giving the child a word of welcome, the unfeeling woman said to the uncle:"What do you think of him?"
7036Would there be any ending or wearing away of eternity?
7036and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?
7036and would the suffering after a while be less severe?
7036and"Is there really some powerful being by the name of God above me in the sky?"
7036his brother cried,"why is it that we have never heard of these things before?
7036or would it go right on just the same forever and ever?"
7036what has the camp- meeting to do with such things?"
7036what is prayer?"
7036what must we do to get this great salvation?"
9407But, baby, how could you disgrace mother so by going up there looking like a dirty little beggar?
9407Can it be possible? 9407 Can you get through the fence if I take you there?"
9407Child,he said, huskily,"you will come and see me again, wo n''t you, no matter if they do tell you not to?
9407Did Emma Louise make you mad? 9407 Did I evah see her befo''?"
9407Did n''t you heah M''ria say,''Fo''de Lawd''s sake do n''t wake up ole Marse?'' 9407 Did you ever hear what your Uncle Tom did when he was a little fellow in dresses?"
9407Did you ever see anything so much like the old Colonel?
9407Do n''t you remember what a scene there was some years ago when she married a New York man? 9407 Do n''t you want a nice big saucer of strawberries and cream before you go?
9407Do you notice, Beth, how much plainer she talks? 9407 Do you''pose it''s very late?"
9407Elizabeth,he said, wonderingly,"what do you suppose the old fellow gave her clothes for?
9407How are you like me?
9407How can I tell you, suh,she demanded, indignantly,"when you have fo''bidden even her name to be spoken befo''you?"
9407How can papas not love their little girls?
9407How''s all up yo''way?
9407Is n''t he goin''to come?
9407Is n''t she lots of company for you?
9407Is n''t this a happy mawnin''?
9407Is yo''head feelin''any bettah, honey?
9407It sounds like the wind a- blowin''through white clovah, does n''t it?
9407Land sakes, what is the mattah?
9407Not now, dear; do n''t you see that I am busy talking to Aunt Sally? 9407 Now, what''s the mattah with you, honey?"
9407See that hole where the palin''s are off?
9407So little girls nowadays have taken to wearing soldier''s caps, have they? 9407 Suh?"
9407What are you doing here, child?
9407What are you wearing these old clothes for?
9407What did I tell you about playing around here, tracking dirt all over my premises? 9407 What did she call the doll, gran''fathah, do you remembah?"
9407What does your mother mean,he cried, savagely,"by letting you run barefooted around the country just like poor white trash?
9407What kind of a thing is this?
9407What makes you think I am like that?
9407What on earth does she mean by a pink story?
9407What under the sun do they call you that for?
9407What you''pose he''s doin''now,''way out West?
9407What''s your name?
9407Where have you been? 9407 Where is your mother, child?"
9407Who are you, anyway?
9407Who''d evah think now, lookin''at her pretty, innocent face, that she could be so naughty? 9407 Who''s been tellin''you such nonsense?"
9407Whose child is this?
9407Why could n''t he stay where he was? 9407 Why did n''t they dress you up when you were going visiting?
9407Why do n''t you tell your father how matters are?
9407Why does n''t gran''fathah love my mothah?
9407Why, Becky, is that you?
9407Why, what''s the mattah, honey?
9407Why, where''s Papa Jack?
9407Will you take my hand, sir?
9407You could n''t take Fritz on behin'', could you?
9407You heah, too, chile?
9407An''is n''t you glad we''ve got a gran''fathah with such good''trawberries?"
9407An''what are you playing with low- flung niggers for?
9407But as he glanced over his mail he heard the Little Colonel saying,"May Lilly, do you know about Billy Goat Gruff?
9407Did an angel leave it heah fo''you?"
9407Do n''t you know she came and stayed so long, and the rockah broke off the little white rockin''-chair when she sat down in it?"
9407Do n''t you want to run down- stairs and tell M''ria to give you a piece of cake?"
9407Do you know my Aunt Sally Tylah?"
9407Do you think you can undress yo''self to- night?"
9407Do you want me to tell you that story?"
9407Have n''t you ever been taught any better?
9407He could not hear the happiest of little voices that was just then saying,"Oh, Fritz, is n''t you glad we came?
9407I just know Jack is going to die, and then I''ll die, too, and then what will become of the baby?"
9407Is that why she is sick so much, and will it kill her suah''nuff?"
9407Mom Beck, is my mothah''s heart all broken?
9407Nearly everybody in the congregation was swaying back and forth in time to the mournful melody of"Sinnah, sinnah, where''s you boun''?"
9407Or is you cryin''''cause you''re so ti''ed?
9407So that''s why they call her the''Little Colonel,''is it?"
9407So you do n''t like her, eh?
9407What do you s''pose is the mattah?"
9407What has happened to you?"
9407What if Elizabeth should refuse to see him?
9407What if Jack Sherman had died after all?
9407Why ca n''t that Jack Sherman die while he''s about it, and let me have my own back again?"
9407Why did n''t you tell me so before?"
9407Why do n''t you mind?"
9407You do n''t mean to tell me you have been skimping along all these weeks on just that check I sent you before starting home?"
9407You like roses, do n''t you, and pinks and lilies and pansies?"
9407he echoed, blankly,"Where?"
9407she asked at last in a low, reverent tone,"where did you get it?
9407she sobbed,"what is going to become of us?
9407what is the matter?
9407why did you ever leave me?"
51451Are you a soldier?
51451Are you?
51451But how about the dogs? 51451 But suppose they come after us now, wo n''t they find us?"
51451But, Major, is there not another house nearer the line? 51451 But,"said I,"have you no compunctions about making a business of hunting down human beings this way?"
51451Certainly it does, or how could I draw rations for the dogs?
51451Colonel, the First Wisconsin Cavalry is camped here, is it not?
51451Dat gun? 51451 Halloo, boys, is that you?"
51451How about rain?
51451How long is it since your master trusted you with a gun? 51451 How would it be in a running stream?"
51451I am a Yankee officer, escaped from a Rebel prison, and I am trying to reach the Yankee army,I replied; and again I asked,"Will you betray me?"
51451Reck''n that''s a pretty tough yarn to believe, now, ai n''t it?
51451Then the Confederate government recognizes the use of hounds for this purpose as legitimate warfare, does it?
51451Umph?
51451Well, do you suppose I am a woodchuck? 51451 Well, what do you want here?
51451Well, who are the Home Guard?
51451What are you doing with that gun?
51451What is this, Major?
51451What kind of a ration?
51451What pay do you draw?
51451What regiment do you belong to?
51451Where are they?
51451Where are who?
51451Where did you make your escape?
51451Who are these men around you? 51451 Who are you, anyhow?"
51451Who are you?
51451Who are you?
51451Who do you belong to, then? 51451 Who in hell are you?"
51451Who is you?
51451Who, in God''s name, do you take us to be?
51451Whose gun is that?
51451Why did n''t you answer when I challenged?
51451Why did you do that? 51451 Why do you halt?"
51451Why?
51451Why?
51451Wondah what dat shot foh?
51451Would those dogs have bitten us, if you had not called them off?
51451Yes, and you found three of them, eh?
51451You do n''t pretend to say that you have come all the way from Charleston, right through the Reb country?
51451You do n''t pretend you are a slave?
51451_ Know them?_ I should rather think I did. 51451 ''Pears like ye was holler all de way down, do n''t it, honeys?
51451Are you a Union man?"
51451At length he asked,"Is you Jordan''s men?"
51451At length the Major challenged,"Who comes there?"
51451Bringing his carbine to bear on us, the fellow called out:"Well, Yanks, do you surrender?"
51451But what has become of it?"
51451But what was the matter with the trees?
51451But who is you?
51451Can we reach it in time?
51451Could it be that there was a picket line here, so far away from the contending forces?
51451Could the beasts follow us through the water?
51451Did n''t I talk wid dem, an''did n''t dey talk Yankee?
51451Did n''t we starve together in Rebel prisons?
51451Did you know him?"
51451Do you hear it?
51451Do you hear that?
51451Do you hear them?
51451Do you know any of the members of that regiment?"
51451Do you know where Gordon''s brigade is?
51451Do you think I can fly?"
51451Had they been intercepted and taken prisoners?
51451Hare only laughed at them, asking them what they supposed he cared for life, with one leg gone?
51451Hatcher must be got over the stream in some way, but how?
51451How do you suppose I know which two men you mean?"
51451If we do, will it be under the Stars and Stripes, or within the walls of a prison pen?
51451If we had lost the battle, what was the reason we were not shipped to Libby and Belle Isle?
51451Immediately after our examination was closed, one of the men came up to us and said,"Did you uns stop at a house back here, this morning?"
51451Is dat so?
51451Is there not a possibility that we may be attacked even here?"
51451Must we stop here?
51451No hope of exchange, I suppose?"
51451Not a word was spoken until the picket challenged,"Who goes there?"
51451Now you wo n''t betray us, will you, when you know we''re trying to help you and your people, and to give them their liberty?
51451On-- yes, but in what direction?
51451One motherly old woman, after peering into our faces, asked:"W''en did ye hab anyt''ing to eat las'', honey?"
51451Only five miles to liberty?
51451Or had they voluntarily cut loose from us, and taken this method of doing it?
51451Or was it that the country had been notified of our escape, and that the inhabitants were out looking for us?
51451Or would he be faithful to his race, by succoring their recognized friends?
51451Ought we not to feel grateful to our Southern brethren for the sumptuous manner in which they entertained us?
51451Our conversation, as my memory serves me, was substantially as follows:_ Yankee._ Well, boy, where are you traveling so late at night?
51451Reckon you uns mus''be hungry, ai nt ye?
51451Rising to his feet, he exclaimed:"Who is you?"
51451Run now, while we had a chance, or wait and fight?
51451Shall we ever meet again?
51451Shall we run?
51451Some one inquired,"Why?"
51451Spencer, a good singer, gave them the song,"Who will care for mother now?"
51451That''s on the railroad, is n''t it?
51451The natural inquiry will arise: What became of the dirt?
51451To my astonishment, he exclaimed in startled tones:"Who is you, Mars?"
51451Walking up to him, I placed my hand on his shoulder and looking him in the eye, asked:"Old man, if I place my life in your hands, will you betray me?"
51451Was he watching to get a shot at us?
51451Was it a guerilla party out on a scout?
51451Was it an outpost of the enemy''s cavalry?
51451Was there more than one person''s step?
51451Wat de mattah now, ole boy?
51451Wat for you asks such queer questions?
51451Wat ye got, dat scars ye so?"
51451Were the negroes building a fire for fun?
51451Were they after us?
51451Were they after us?
51451What could it mean?
51451What could it mean?
51451What do you want to deceive us for?"
51451What is that?
51451What is that?
51451What is this?
51451What should we do?
51451What should we do?
51451What should we do?
51451What was it best to do?
51451Where is Captain Clinton?"
51451Where is Colonel La Grange?"
51451Which way are they heading?
51451Which would succeed?
51451Who and what are they?"
51451Who comes there?"
51451Why do you ask?"
51451Why should a fire be kindled in the road?
51451Why were you frightened at our approach?"
51451Will they be able to discover our retreat?
51451Wot ken I do?
51451Would he be true to the interests of three unknown men, simply upon the statement that they were Yankees?
51451Would it not be safer to get as near the line as possible?
51451Would not the education of a lifetime of slavery teach him to side with the strong against the weak, as a matter of policy?
51451Your master''s in the army, I suppose?
51451_ Know them?_ Did n''t Kellogg and I dig tunnels together?
51451_ Know them?_ Did n''t Kellogg and I dig tunnels together?
51451_ Negro._ Who is you, Massa?
51451_ Prisoners Again_ Would our ruse be successful?
51451_ Yank._ In which direction did they go?
51451_ Yankee._ Now, supposing you found a man on his road to liberty, that had been a slave or prisoner, would you help him, or would you betray him?
51451_ Yankee._ Suppose we tell you; suppose we put our lives in your hands-- will you betray us?
51451_ Yankee._ That''s his plantation about a mile down this road, is n''t it?
51451_ Yankee._ Well, boy, what do you think of the war now going on?
51451_ Yankee._ Where does your wife live?
51451_ Yankee._ Whose boy are you?
51451_ Yankee._ Would you rather be free or would you rather be as you are-- a slave?
51451_ Yankee._ You know that the Yankees are trying to make you blacks all free, do n''t you?
51451he rejoined;"but how did you live?"
5393A Colfax of St. Louis in butternuts and rawhide boots?
5393Ai n''t it possible?
5393And a child?
5393And the lady?
5393And you will take my note for the amount?
5393And-- Clarence?
5393Are the Yankees beaten?
5393Are there any gentlemen from St. Louis here?
5393Are you Colonel Carvel?
5393Are you going away?
5393At what time shall I order the carriage to take you to Bellegarde?
5393Brinsmade, you fellows did have a session with Fremont, did n''t you? 5393 But if the food gives out?"
5393But,--but why did you give up chewing?
5393Do n''t one- twenty a day suit you?
5393Do you cal''late,said he,--that I could work for your father, and wish ruin to his country?"
5393Do you think he can be saved?
5393Do you think that she is unhappy?
5393Doctor, could this man''s life be saved if I took him to my home?
5393Does you want to see folks, Marse Comyn?
5393Flippantly Miss Carvel?
5393Going to Springfield?
5393Got them vouchers?
5393He is no more crazy than I am,said Stephen, warmly--"Is he not?"
5393How can you ask? 5393 How dare you speak flippantly of such things?"
5393How did you escape?
5393I cal''late you despise me, do n''t you?
5393Is n''t there something else you could take? 5393 Is the Colonel at home?"
5393Is this Colonel Carvel''s house?
5393Is your mistress here?
5393It is n''t the trips, Jinny There are duties, my dear, pleasant duties--Jinny--"Yes?
5393Jinny, did he--?
5393Jinny, do you remember saying so many years ago that our ruin would come of our not being able to work? 5393 Jinny,"she cried,"how can you be so cruel as to read me that, when you know that I am in a state of frenzy now?
5393Mammy, what is all this noise about?
5393Marse Comyn, won''you give Ephum a pass down, river, ter fotch Cap''n Lige?
5393Marse Comyn, you know what I done promise young MISS long time ago, befo''--befo''she done left us?
5393May I have the pleasure,said that gentleman,"of accompanying you home?"
5393Miss Jinny,said he, precipitately,"did I ever strike you as a marrying man?"
5393Miss Jinny?
5393Mr. Hopper fight? 5393 Mr. Hopper,"he said,"these Eastern notes are due this week, are they not?"
5393My dear?
5393Ned, whaffor you hidin''yonder? 5393 Not very profitable to be a minute- man, eh?"
5393Oh, Jinny,sobbed the lady, in tears again,"how can you be so cruel at such a time, when my nerves are all in pieces?"
5393Oh, Pa,she cried, in alarm,"what did he mean?"
5393Pa,she cried,"do you think he is coming here?"
5393Pa,she said,"do you think it would be possible to get them to let us take that Arkansan into our house?"
5393Pa,she said,"is it true that you have borrowed money from this man?"
5393So you bought yourself free?
5393So you were not caught?
5393So you''ve heard of me since we met, sir?
5393The war does n''t seem to make any difference in your business, Mr. Hopper,his landlady remarked,"where have you been so late?"
5393Well, Colonel Carvel, what can I do for you this morning?
5393What are you waiting for?
5393What do you mean, sir?
5393What do you mean, sir?
5393What happened, mother?
5393What would you do with it?
5393What-- what is it?
5393What?
5393Where the devil did you get this money, sir?
5393Why not?
5393Why should not our soldiers have them, too?
5393Wo n''t you please go without me, Pa?
5393Wo n''t you sit down, General?
5393Yes?
5393You are my prisoners?
5393You do n''t know nothin''about him, you say?
5393You have this money?
5393You tink I dunno whaffor you come? 5393 You''ve had military training of some sort?"
5393You-- won''t-- marry me?
5393''Great God?''
5393''How many do you want?''
5393''Why not?''
5393''You do n''t think Fremont''ll see you, do you?''
5393--What are you in town for?''
5393An embarrassed silence, and then from Mammy,"Whaffor you laffin at?"
5393And do n''t you remember the letter Maude had from George?
5393And then, sir,"cried the General, excitedly,"what do you think he did?
5393And was n''t it a remarkable offer for a Southern woman to make?
5393And--""And what?"
5393Are you going to pay?"
5393At what time shall I order the carriage?"
5393Brinsmade, have you got such a thing as a map?"
5393But when we think calmly of those days, can we escape without a little pity for the aristocrats?
5393But where are the tears of the sad women who stitched the red and the white and the blue together?
5393Cap''n,''ll you have a drink?"
5393Could it be that there was a motive under all this plotting?
5393Could it have been of admiration for the fine old man who towered there glaring defiance at those about him?
5393Did you ever hear of one General Sherman?
5393Do you remember that they offered us their house in Glencoe when the Judge was so ill?"
5393Do you think that many of them did not know hunger and want long before that cruel war was over?
5393Ever heard of him, Brinsmade?
5393Ever tell you what Cameron did, Brinsmade?
5393He checked himself abruptly as Eliphalet pulled off his hat,"Howdy, Colonel?"
5393He had never dared do such a thing before, What had got into the man?
5393He that they say is crazy?"
5393Hopper?"
5393Hopper?"
5393Hopper?"
5393Hopper?"
5393How dare he march undaunted to within six paces of those eyes?
5393How do you know that he will get through the Dutch pickets to Price''s army?
5393How does that relieve me?
5393How much to- day?"
5393If it were not for Mr. Brinsmade and you gentlemen who help him, where would our Western armies be?
5393Is not that crazy?
5393Is there any news to- day?"
5393Some jewellery?"
5393The Colonel''s a man of honor, ai n''t he?"
5393The crowd drew back, But did Miss Carvel retreat?
5393The sweetness of her voice held Virginia as in a spell, and the sergeant stopped groaning that he might listen:"You have a wife?"
5393Was it because he had become a manager, and governed the business during her father''s frequent absences?
5393Was it not a prophecy,--that drove which sent him into Mr. Carvel''s store?
5393Was n''t Souther captured last week, and that rash letter of Puss Russell''s to Jack Brinsmade published in the Democrat?"
5393Was not the Captain hired to do a degrading service?
5393What am I bid?"
5393What am I bid?"
5393What am I saying?"
5393What do you think the Judge will do with that piano, Stephen?"
5393What for?"
5393What was left for them, after that, save a retreat?
5393What''s to prevent my goin''south when the vouchers is cashed?"
5393Where does she live?"
5393Where was it?
5393Who were to be on this mysterious list of"Sixty"?
5393Why does the type run together?
5393Why should she care if Stephen Brice had seen her in company with Mr, Hopper?
5393Why should we wish to know the rate of interest on those notes, or the time?
5393Will you come in?"
5393With his great shrewdness and business ability, why did he not take advantage of the many opportunities the war gave to make a fortune?
5393Womenkind get queer notions, which I cal''late we''ve got to respect and put up with all our lives-- eh?"
5393Would General Lyon confer with the Governor of Missouri?
5393Would you mind showing me''round a bit?"
5393You would n''t like it in a husband, now, would you?"
5393You''re poor, but I guess you do n''t know how poor you are,--eh?
5393cried the Colonel, incredulously,"You?"
5393said Mrs. Colfax, peevishly, one morning as they sat at breakfast,"why do you persist it wearing that old gown?
5393says he,''where are they to come from?''
5393she cried,"ca n''t you understand?
18721A scoundrel, if God ever made one--"Because he looks at me?
18721All right-- kill Slavery and then what? 18721 Am I so ignorant?"
18721And he called on Jeff Davis last night?
18721And it makes no difference?
18721And these, Miss Jennie-- they''re the finest of the lot?
18721And those giants?
18721And try to help me?
18721And what of it, if he threw it away by appointing a fool second in Command?
18721And what say you, Holt?
18721And who''s the young knight by his side with the dear little mustache to which he seems so attached?
18721And why, pray?
18721And you can not forgive?
18721And you did n''t tell me?
18721And you do n''t like that sort of penance?
18721And you expect to go back to Connecticut after making that statement?
18721And you know that the State of South Carolina has dismantled Fort Moultrie?
18721And you recommend?
18721And your Senators who took a solemn oath in entering this Chamber to support the Constitution will leave their seats in violation of that oath?
18721Are all of the girls of the South like you, Miss Jennie?
18721Are n''t they? 18721 Are n''t you sorry for these poor fellows?"
18721Are we more or less than men? 18721 Are you?"
18721Are you?
18721Bitter?
18721But I knew you would come--"You''ll not send me away again?
18721But I think you might help me a little--"If it''s within my power--"You remember Miss Barton?
18721But if he wins-- who will dare to criticise the wisdom of his policy fifty years from to- day? 18721 But one and she has just arrived with the Presidential party-- Miss Jennie Barton--""The Senator''s daughter?"
18721But suppose it should turn out that he had to whip five or six or a dozen?
18721But you do n''t know what I''ve got for you--"What?
18721Ca n''t I do something for you?
18721Ca n''t you say your prayers together to- night?
18721Can you direct me to General Beauregard''s headquarters?
18721Captain Welford evidently thinks so--"And you?
18721Captain Welford,she laughed,"has just accused you of hobnobbing with the enemy on the streets-- what explanation can you offer?"
18721Clairvoyance perhaps--"You believe in such things?
18721Did n''t you save any of your own things?
18721Did you know they were going to do that, sir?
18721Did you see him kiss me, Polly?
18721Do n''t ask me idiotic questions,she answered sternly;"what are you driving at?"
18721Do n''t you believe I would?
18721Do n''t you like me a little?
18721Do n''t you see the chain hanging from her waist?
18721Do n''t you think these fellows could do it?
18721Does it matter now? 18721 Does look like business, does n''t it?"
18721Engaged on important business for the Government--"What Government?
18721Enough to take me west of the Mississippi--"You are well mounted?
18721Even so, how can he do the astounding thing he proposes to carry out to- day? 18721 Even so, is n''t it better to first settle their claims and avoid war?"
18721For heaven''s sake, Jennie,the boy cried at last,"who is that villain in the Diplomatic gallery?"
18721For_ my_ country-- yes--He paused a moment and went on carelessly:"Your older brother, the Judge, will fight for the Union?"
18721Hardly--"Ye want me ter tell ye?
18721Has General Miles given that order?
18721Have n''t I?
18721Have you ever been conscious of being watched? 18721 He has searched your room and found your cipher code--""And you have saved my life?"
18721He is for the Union then?
18721He, too, will enter the army?
18721Honest now, Jennie-- you do n''t care for any other fellow?
18721How can I ever hold my head up again under censure from you-- one of my oldest and best friends?
18721How can the man who made that speech in Boston do this mad deed to- day?
18721How can you ask such a question?
18721How curious--"An illusion?
18721How dare you insult the man I love in my presence, Dick Welford?
18721How do you know?
18721How far?
18721How''ll they beat us when we git ready ter make the fight?
18721How?
18721I am going to surrender you to the authorities--"And you have just been sobbing in my arms-- the man you have sworn to love forever?
18721I am ordered back to the entrenchments--"You think it wise to walk back into the trap we''ve just escaped from?
18721I ask the big divine thing of you, Dick?
18721I bet ye could never guess how I knowed it-- could ye?
18721I ca n''t do it, sir--"Will you lend me your engine?
18721I ca n''t join, Father Wilson?
18721I consider this better ground--"You have left no rear guard to contest McClellan''s crossing?
18721I did n''t know just what they were going to do--"You knew they were up to something?
18721I did, did n''t I? 18721 I have--""Why?"
18721I just ran into Socola talking to this woman--"Is that all?
18721I know one that did n''t anyhow--"Who?
18721I know that Socola is here--"And if he is?
18721I love you--"And that is not enough?
18721I sent for you the night young Dahlgren''s body was stolen--"Really?
18721I should n''t care to meet them in a row--"You know what General Taylor said of them in the Mexican War?
18721I was in a gambling establishment--"Whose?
18721I wonder why that soldier took his hat off?
18721I''ll arrest him--"On what charge?
18721I''ll give him up on one condition--"What?
18721I''ll wait a day and try again--"You knew of Captain Welford''s death, I suppose?
18721I''m afraid I was a little rude the other day?
18721I''m just going home with you, ai n''t I?
18721I''m not so loyal after all-- am I?
18721I''m sorry, Dick dear, I did n''t think you loved me in that way--"What did you think I was hanging round you so much for?
18721I''m sure of it--"But you did n''t see her drop it?
18721If I tell you that much, you''ll let me off?
18721If we could only get them across the Mississippi,Davis cried,"where beef and supplies of all kind are abundant-- but what can we do for them here?"
18721If you care to put it so-- I mean, is their loyalty to the Confederacy a mania?
18721In case Johnston abandons Richmond,the President slowly began,"where in your opinion, General Lee, is the next best line of defense?"
18721In the far South and the West?
18721In this freezing cold?
18721Indeed?
18721Indeed?
18721Is Mr. Davis well mounted?
18721Is it necessary?
18721Is mine a mania?
18721Is n''t he a beauty? 18721 Is there anything else you can think of, Uncle Bob?"
18721Is this not President Davis?
18721It shall be forever?
18721It will take a brave man to do that, wo n''t it?
18721Jennie,he began seriously,"you are sure that you love the South?"
18721Johnnie Worsham''s--"What were you doing there? 18721 Just the lower floor?"
18721Let''s stop on this hill and watch the sunset, Miss Sarah?
18721Lord, I wish I were going with you--"I wish so, too--"Honest, Jennie?
18721M- m- eaning of w- what?
18721May I ask why you chose to give up the defenses of such a river without a blow?
18721May I write to you occasionally, Miss Jennie?
18721Miss Barton, may I ask a little favor of you?
18721Must I, to- night?
18721Need I explain?
18721Neither life nor death, nor height nor depth can separate us?
18721No?
18721Not the least-- little-- tiny-- bit?
18721Of course I am-- don''t you think I know what those shoulder straps mean?
18721Of course, I can pick cotton if I want to--"But ye raly do n''t wanter?
18721Of course, I know that-- but I can keep on trying, ca n''t I?
18721Of course, not--"You liked that Socola, did n''t you?
18721Perfectly--"You have absolutely consecrated your life, and every talent, to your country?
18721Perhaps I should say a divine passion-- are all your Southern women thus inspired?
18721Perhaps your State Department may find me useful?
18721Please, Dick-- don''t--"Yes,he insisted,"I want to talk about it and you must hear me-- won''t you?"
18721Please-- not that now--"Why-- not now?
18721Recognized me?
18721Richmond is to be surrendered without a battle?
18721Say, men, do ye want to die?
18721Say-- now-- ain''t yo''name Jeff''son Davis?
18721Senator Davis-- you do n''t know him?
18721Signor Socola, I believe?
18721So help you God?
18721So you have returned a fiercer rebel than ever, Miss Jennie?
18721Something you''ve always wanted to have for your own--"A pony?
18721Tell me frankly and honestly the whole story of your life--"You believe me an impostor?
18721Tell me,Dr. Craven said kindly,"what I can do to add to your comfort?"
18721Tell me,she cried;"you studied the sciences at West Point, what does it mean?"
18721That cloud of dust coming toward the station?
18721That the woman I love can deliver me to death--"You doubt it?
18721That''s why he kissed me when I left?
18721The aristocrats do n''t think so--"What t''ell they got agin him? 18721 The same old thing, Benjamin-- only a little more virulent this time-- what of it?"
18721Then you do n''t_ mind_ if I win?
18721There are complications which may increase our dangers or suddenly lift them--"Complications-- what do you mean?
18721There''s no other fellow?
18721They can force you to sleep in his room,pleaded the ringleader,"but, by Gimminy, that do n''t make you a monk, does it?"
18721They''re for revenge--"Revenge?
18721They''ve loosed two big rafters and have them ready to use as battering rams--"You''re sure of this?
18721War has been declared? 18721 We will reach Montgomery in time for the meeting of the Convention of Seceding States?"
18721We wo n''t even get our noses in the door--"You do n''t think these old Senators get up at daylight, do you?
18721We''ll be friends anyhow, Jennie?
18721Well, I''ve been speculating about you--"Indeed?
18721Well, it''s good- by to the old Union-- how many Senators are going to- day?
18721Well, sir?
18721Were n''t you afraid of Anderson''s cannon, uncle?
18721What are you crying about?
18721What can I do, gentlemen-- what can I do? 18721 What can I do?"
18721What chance has a Yankee got against such men?
18721What could separate us, my lover? 18721 What do you mean?"
18721What do you mean?
18721What do you think of them?
18721What do you want me to do?
18721What else?
18721What is it, Dick?
18721What is it, James?
18721What is it? 18721 What is it?"
18721What is it?
18721What is it?
18721What on earth?
18721What''ell, Bill, is that thing?
18721What''s that dark spot in the valley?
18721What''s the matter with her, Big Brother?
18721What''s the matter with you to- day, Dick Welford?
18721What''s the matter? 18721 What''s the matter?"
18721What''s the use?
18721What''s this, my little comrade?
18721What?
18721When did they begin firin''?
18721Where are you going?
18721Where are you going?
18721Where are you going?
18721Where?
18721Who are the leaders of these mobs who seek thus to overthrow the Constitution? 18721 Who ever heard of a race of shopkeepers turning into soldiers?"
18721Who is it?
18721Who told you? 18721 Whose camp is that?"
18721Why did he stay so long?
18721Why did n''t I love you?
18721Why did n''t you attack me on Friday?
18721Why did you squeeze me so hard?
18721Why do you look at me so?
18721Why not?
18721Why, I never thought to hurt you, Colonel--"No? 18721 Why, Miss Jennie Barton?"
18721Why, that''s the-- the-- w- w- wagoners-- they''re trying to save the pieces I reckon--"The army has been pushed back?
18721Why?
18721Why?
18721Why?
18721Will you give me this paper?
18721Will you join me?
18721Will you tell me, General,Mrs. Davis asked,"where my husband is imprisoned and what his treatment is to be?"
18721Will you?
18721With the certainty of an uprising of your slaves at home?
18721Wo n''t little mother be surprised and glad?
18721Would the United States Army stand by the old flag?
18721Would what, Dick?
18721Would you like to go through the camps and see our men?
18721Would you, James?
18721Yep-- a shell toppled me over but I was on my feet in a minute laughing-- and I''ll bet you could n''t guess what about?
18721Yes, sir--"How?
18721Yes, why not?
18721Yes, you do-- aren''t you his servant?
18721Yes-- Jennie--"Do you know what you are doing?
18721Yes-- why?
18721Yes-- wouldn''t you?
18721Yes--"You know positively that he was the Secretary of the Sardinian Minister?
18721Yes?
18721Yes?
18721Yo''name, sah? 18721 You are a Southerner?"
18721You are a smoker?
18721You are chill, dearest?
18721You are happy, dearest?
18721You are ready, Miss Jennie?
18721You are serious to- day, Miss Jennie?
18721You are sure that deep down in your heart there''s not another motive?
18721You are wounded?
18721You believe that is a medical necessity?
18721You ca n''t be jealous?
18721You ca n''t convince me?
18721You can deliver me to execution?
18721You can postpone the execution of your order until I see him?
18721You certainly plugged him-- what did you think of the speeches?
18721You do n''t believe this?
18721You do n''t believe what I tell you?
18721You do n''t like me, Father?
18721You do n''t mind my looking about the house?
18721You do n''t say?
18721You do n''t think, doctor--he paused, afraid to say the thing--"you do n''t think my young mistis gwine ter die?"
18721You doubt it?
18721You gave her my message?
18721You have an older brother in New Orleans, I believe?
18721You have fully counted the cost, my son?
18721You have given up all hope of adjustment and reunion with the North?
18721You have money, Reagan?
18721You have moved your army into the suburbs of Richmond, General Johnston?
18721You have promulgated this order to the army?
18721You here?
18721You know any girls in Richmond?
18721You know that she is a traitor to her own people?
18721You like him?
18721You like it very much?
18721You mean insulting to their fathers?
18721You prefer to surrender?
18721You realize that you_ are_ the incarnate Cause of the South for me?
18721You really want to know,he began slowly,"why speaking tires me now?"
18721You think that I''ll submit to my fate without a fight?
18721You told me--"When?
18721You will be very bitter towards him if war should come?
18721You''d go to the front, of course?
18721You''ll excuse me now if I hurry on?
18721You''ll explain the drama to me to- day when the curtain rises?
18721You''ll try to trust me?
18721You''re not going out?
18721You''re wounded, sir?
18721You''ve done a noble and beautiful thing in the gift of your life to our Chief for these two miserable years--"They''ve been miserable to you?
18721You''ve heard of her?
18721Your family are all with you, Senator?
18721Your people must see, Senator, that secession will imperil the existence of their three thousand millions of dollars invested in slaves?
18721Your three younger brothers will fight for the South, of course, Miss Jennie?
18721Yulee and Mallory from Florida, Clay and Fitzpatrick from Alabama and Senator Davis--"All in a day?
18721_ Searching_ the house?
18721A woman inquired of Frederick, who was on his way to his room:"Where''s Jeff?"
18721After all, what does it matter what men think of me now?
18721Ai n''t he the biggest man in this country to- day?
18721And among his visitors the Blackest Republican of them all--""Old Abe run over from Illinois to say good- by?"
18721And how should this be named among the high crimes of George III which caused the Colonies to sever their connection with the Mother country?
18721And what_ did_ you think?"
18721And why did n''t they have a great organ?
18721Are we devoid of the sensibilities, the sentiments, the passions, the reason, and the instincts of mankind?
18721At last, he found his tongue:"Does Pa know I''m goin''?"
18721Besides it''s so much easier--""Indeed?"
18721Buckner quietly asked:"Am I to consider the command turned over to me?"
18721But by Gimminy I got the old rascal this time, did n''t I?"
18721Cadet Davis saw it first and calmly turned to his tormentor:"The fire- ball has ignited, sir,--what shall I do?"
18721Can we love our enemies and bless them that curse and revile us?
18721Dick''s crazy jealousy''s at the bottom of it all--"Why had Socola buried himself in the Department of State so completely since the scene with Dick?
18721Do n''t you hear the boys shouting?
18721Do n''t you see this is your country?
18721Do you know the history of the mind of man?
18721Have we no pride, no honor, no sense of shame, no reverence for our ancestors, no care for posterity, no love for home, or family or friends?
18721He bent his piercing eyes on his future son- in- law:"Lieutenant Davis?"
18721He came within half an hour, a wistful smile lighting his face as he extended his hand:"I am forgiven for having been born abroad?"
18721He could be arrested, but it''s not wise under the circumstances--""You will not arrest Senator Davis?"
18721He lifted his dimmed eyes to hers:"Will you write to my wife for me, Miss?"
18721He merely asked politely:"And the party of Senator Davis will start?"
18721He rose and stood smiling into her flushed face as she gasped:"A wonderful speech-- wasn''t it?"
18721He seized the Boy''s arms:"Do n''t you see, Boy, do n''t you?"
18721He smiled through his black beard into her sweet young face:"No''m, I reckon not--""Ca n''t I wash your face?"
18721He turned to Jennie with a winning appeal in his modulated voice:"Will you do me a very great favor, Miss Barton?"
18721He turned to the officer at the door:"Bring in four of your strongest men-- unarmed-- you understand?"
18721He wondered if he were not in reality playing a desperate waiting game, ready at the moment of the crisis to throw his information to either side?
18721He wondered what his mother would say to that?
18721He wondered what was going on in that home?
18721He''s bound to land somewhere high in the councils of the coming Confederacy--""There''ll be one?"
18721He''s handsome, is n''t he?"
18721Her grandmother sprang to her feet and asked in subdued tones:"What is it, child?"
18721His name is Holt--""The Judge Advocate General?"
18721How can the first step be taken?"
18721How could she be happy amid a scene of such desolation and suffering?
18721How?
18721I confess myself a rebel body and soul--_Confess_?
18721I find myself repeating the old question, what shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and forfeit his life?
18721I have a rival--""A rival?"
18721I have searched his rooms--""Searched his_ rooms_?"
18721I love its beautiful mountains and plains-- its rivers and shining seas-- Oh, my love, ca n''t you see this divine vision of the future?
18721I meant to surrender utterly and trust you--""I did n''t get your message--""I know that you didn''t-- where were you?"
18721I saw General Johnston and his staff enter that house and establish his headquarters there--""Here in the suburbs of Richmond?"
18721I suppose you''re asking-- or think you''re asking-- for my daughter''s hand in marriage?"
18721I think a stand of 75,000 will be sufficient for all contingencies?"
18721I''d hate that--""And you like our ways better?"
18721I''ll live to a ripe old age--"She looked up into his face with a tender smile:"You think so?"
18721I''m going to offer him his life on one condition--""And that is?"
18721I''m going to resign my commission with the Sardinian Ministry and enter the service of the South--""You mean it?"
18721I''m surprised and puzzled--""Surprised and puzzled at what?"
18721I-- I love you-- Jennie-- don''t you love me-- just-- a-- little bit?"
18721I-- failed to catch it?"
18721If we lose, who will give us credit for our high ideals of Civil Law in times of war?
18721In heaven''s high name what could they be doing?
18721Is it forbidden in Richmond?"
18721Is there anything I can do to show how much I appreciate it?"
18721Jennie called to one she knew:"Where''s your mother, child?"
18721Jennie lifted her eyes to his:"What''s your name, my sweetheart?"
18721Jennie startled him from a reverie:"You like him?"
18721Kill Slavery and what will you do with its corpse?
18721Miles hastened to say:"''Davis''is in good health--""I can see him at once?"
18721Miss Jennie, will you meet him?"
18721My tenure of this office will be but a few weeks longer-- but you are my personal representative, you understand?"
18721Of having an eye fixed on you every moment, scrutinizing your smallest act, the change of the muscles of your face or the pose of your body?
18721Or was he a Secret Service man on her trail?
18721Save my life and his--""You could n''t live if he should die, Jennie?"
18721She''s scared-- Ah, that dress, that dress-- isn''t it a dream?
18721Should she commence to drop them one by one?
18721Should she take the chance?
18721Socola bent toward his trembling companion and whispered:"Who is she?"
18721Socola stooped and picked up something from the pavement--""Something she dropped?"
18721Socola whispered to Jennie:"Where have I witnessed this scene before?"
18721The Boy cleared his throat with a deep manly note and spoke in studied careless tones:"Seen any stray horses around here, ma''am?"
18721The Captain spoke in sharp nervous tones:"Well?"
18721The Lieutenant shot a swift glance at their leader and saluted him with friendly uplifted hand:"Can you tell us the way to the Fort, Chief?"
18721The President confronted the trembling conductor:"Will you move your train?"
18721The President turned in quiet dignity to Beauregard:"And what do you say, General Beauregard?"
18721The President turned to the white- haired Secretary of the Navy:"And you, General Toucey?"
18721The President, sitting his horse with erect tense figure, dashed up the hill to General Johnston:"How goes the battle, General?"
18721The South will go and build a government of her own-- as we built this one--""And fight twenty- three million people of the North?"
18721The brother smiled again:"Well, what do you think of that?"
18721The little head wagged doubtfully:"Honest, now, Father?"
18721The man who does that-- well, I''ve a pistol ready!--""What are you saying, dear?"
18721The old man smiled pleasantly:"And why do you wish this, my son?"
18721The slaves have risen?"
18721The tuning finished, she turned to her brother and asked with a smile:"And what shall I sing, Sir Richard?"
18721The water is bad--""And you have come to the very gates of the city?"
18721There must be a readjustment--""Between the North and South?"
18721They seek and mourn so long--""Really?"
18721To the shivering servant who stood in the hall the leader called:"Where are the damned secesh women?
18721Toombs hesitated a moment, and then asked suddenly:"Has President Davis money?"
18721Was n''t a man a double fool who had brains and refused to use them?
18721Was this man Kilpatrick''s scout?
18721We never fight--""The President of the Confederacy is a very fortunate leader, Miss Jennie--""Why?"
18721Welford?"
18721What could it mean?
18721What could wooden ships do with such forts and guns?
18721What do you know of the treasures buried in those big volumes?
18721What does he know about work?"
18721What have you heard?
18721What if she were dead and he could never see her again?
18721What shall we do?"
18721What was the use?
18721What would she do if the truth were revealed?
18721What''s the matter?"
18721When all the others had been greeted, he turned to his mother:"Where''s Pa?"
18721When he spoke it was only a commonplace he managed to blurt out:"So you''re really going to- morrow?"
18721When they get the signal from the outside they''ll batter down the walls and rush through--""Batter down the walls?"
18721Where had he heard the peal of that organ and seen the flash of those gorgeous lights?
18721Where had he heard those bells?
18721Where is the Southern man who would wish that monument less by one Northern name that constitutes the mass?
18721Where were you at twelve o''clock night before last?"
18721Who are these hypocrites who claim the championship of freedom and the moral leadership of the world?
18721Who said so?"
18721Who shall deliver us from the body of this death?
18721Why did n''t they proclaim a truce to bury the dead and save the wounded?
18721Why did n''t they rescue those men?
18721Why had he asked the one question that opened the wound in her heart?
18721Why had he not seen this before?
18721Why not cut loose from your escort?
18721Why on earth could n''t he throw off the fool idea that he was going to lose her?
18721Why one year?
18721Why set up a Constitution at all to- day?"
18721Why set up a Constitution until you have won by the sword the power to maintain it?"
18721Why should he risk the happiness of the woman he loved and his own happiness for life by remaining another day?
18721Why should such a man deliberately come into this chamber to- day before this assembled crowd and commit hari- kari?"
18721Why should they swell the ranks of great armies to augment the power of military lords?
18721Why the devil had n''t he done so before anyhow?
18721Why tie these millstones around your neck?
18721Will the safety of your army allow more time?
18721Will you do it?"
18721With the friendliest smile the Lieutenant extended his hand:"Before we begin our chat, let''s shake hands?"
18721With the last breath I breathe your name shall be on my lips--""You may speak your last word soon--""What do you mean?"
18721Wo n''t you be mine?"
18721You can vouch for his loyalty?"
18721You did n''t ask to sleep in his old room, did you?"
18721You know now that I love you, do n''t you?"
18721You leave to- morrow?"
18721You met him in Washington, of course?"
18721You understand my position?"
18721You understand the terms of your parole that you are to take no deadly weapons into the prison?"
18721You want to go to a real school, do n''t you?"
18721You would n''t have gotten into that devilment if they had n''t persuaded you-- now would you?"
18721You''ll forgive me?"
18721You''ll go with me-- won''t you?"
18721You''ll join our party, of course?"
18721Young Laserre crawled carefully to the edge of the rock, peered over and called through the darkness:"Are you dead, Jeff?"
18721Your Southern Senators are really going to surrender their power here without a struggle?"
18721_ Will_ you stand by us?"
6764''Say, sir?'' 6764 ''What shall I say?''
6764Am he a buckra[ white man]?
6764Captain----,said Montgomery, courteously,"would you allow me to send a remarkably fine turkey for your use on board ship?"
6764Come along, come along, And let us go home, O, glory, hallelujah? 6764 Daddy,"said the inquisitive youth,"do n''t you know mas''r tell us Yankee hab tail?

6764And I remember that, on being asked by our Major, in that semi- Ethiopian dialect into which we sometimes slid,"How much wife you got, Jim?"
6764Are you going to let me and the children be killed, John?"
6764At best, might not a man in the water lose all his power of direction, and so move in an endless circle until he sank exhausted?
6764Besides, the pass itself permits her to bring necessary baggage, and is not a baby six months old necessary baggage?"
6764Besides, they would be in sight of the enemy, and who knew but there might, by the blessing of Providence, be a raid or a skirmish?
6764But how provide for the multitude?
6764But is the Government itself an irresponsible recruiting officer?
6764But what business had rushes there, or I among them?
6764Can not even the fact of their being in arms for the nation, liable to die any day in its defence, secure them ordinary justice?
6764Did n''t I keer for see''em blaze?
6764Do n''t you hear de trumpet sound?

6764Do n''t you love God?
6764Do n''t you love God?
6764Does it not naturally suggest the most cruel suspicions in regard to us?
6764Florida Again?
6764For instance, a voice just now called, near my tent,--"Cato, whar''s Plato?"
6764How can I ever describe the charm and picturesqueness of that summer life?
6764I said, pointing to his lame arm,"Did you think that was more than you bargained for, my man?"
6764In de mornin'', In de mornin'', Chil''en?
6764In view of what they saw, did they still wish we had been there?
6764In what respect were the colored troops a source of disappointment?
6764Is it customary, I ask you, to help to tenderloin with one''s fingers?
6764Is there to be no limit, no end to the injustice we heap upon this unfortunate people?
6764Is this a school for self- sacrificing patriotism?
6764Jesus set poor shiners free, Way down in de valley, Who will rise and go with me?
6764M----''s prediction was fulfilled:"Will not---- be in bliss?
6764My brudder, how long, My brudder, how long, My brudder, how long,''Fore we done sufferin''here?
6764Napoleon ought to have won at Waterloo by all reasonable calculations; but who cares?
6764O, have you got your ticket?
6764O, is your bundle ready?
6764O, wo n''t you go wid me?
6764O, wo n''t you go wid me?
6764Of course my pride was up; for was I to defer to an untutored African on a point of pronunciation?
6764One of them was heard to mutter, indignantly,"Why de Cunnel order_ Cease firing_, when de Secesh blazin''away at de rate ob ten dollar a day?"
6764Sammy, what you''s doin'', chile?"
6764That having been the case, why should not the Government equally repudiate General Saxton''s promises or mine?
6764The single question which I asked of some of the plantation superintendents, on the voyage, was,"Do these people appreciate_ justice_?"
6764Too ole for come?
6764Was the economy of saving six dollars per man worth to the Treasury the ignominy of the repudiation?
6764Way down in de valley, Who will rise and go with me?
6764What ever are we to do for spoons and forks and plates?
6764What for use?
6764What was the use of insurrection, where everything was against them?
6764What were those black dots which everywhere appeared?
6764When some of them saw me they seemed a little dismayed, and came and said, beseechingly,--"Gunnel, Sah, you hab no objection to we playin'', Sah?"
6764Where is that faith of the Government now?
6764Who''s go dar?"
6764You tink you''s brave enough; how you tink, if you stan''clar in de open field,--here you, and dar de Secesh?

47746''Miss M----,''said one of the more timid servants,''do they want to kill us all dead? 47746 A line?
47746Ai nt he swelled powerful?
47746And what then?
47746And you will be merciful to the major?
47746Are you, indeed?
47746But suppose they would n''t halt?
47746But where were you wounded?
47746But why did you not intrench?
47746But why should you act upon a different rule from other men?
47746By what authority do you demand my surrender?
47746Can aliens make treaties easier than friends can make laws?
47746Come on, come on, my men,said one Confederate colonel, with the grim humor of a soldier;"do you want to live forever?"
47746Do n''t you?
47746Do you consider your life worth more than other people''s?
47746Do you think any of your company would have missed you if you had been killed?
47746Does President Davis and the Congress know these facts? 47746 Does it hurt much?"
47746Does yer grease that har with ham fat, or how?
47746General, have you a knife about you?
47746Good morning, boys,said Captain C.,"where did you all come from?"
47746Has it taken you all this time to skin a horse?
47746How are you, Steuart?
47746How are you, Virginia?
47746How can it succeed?
47746How long has your sister been dead?
47746I say, stranger, buttermilk or corn- fed?
47746In whose brigade and division is that?
47746Is he going to die?
47746Longstreet''s,was the reply;"what''s yours?"
47746Run at the first fire, did you?
47746Say, mister, whar''d ye git that biled shut?
47746So that is your opinion, is it?
47746Stood your ground, did you?
47746Suppose they did n''t stop then, what would you do?
47746Then patriotism and honor are nothing to you?
47746Then you must value it very highly?
47746Well, but have you no regard for your reputation?
47746Well, lieutenant, have you mounted guard?
47746Well, what can I do for you?
47746Well, why did n''t you shoot back, sir? 47746 What bounty does He give?"
47746What division do you belong to?
47746What do you think of that?
47746What do you want, Pat?
47746What hurt?
47746What mout be the price o''them nail kags?
47746What satisfaction would dat be to me when de power ob feelin''was gone?
47746What, is Almond- eye dead?
47746Where did you get that turkey?
47746Where does this road lead to?
47746Who are you?
47746Who are you?
47746Who for?
47746Why did you not go before?
47746Why should there not be a patient confidence in the ultimate justice of the people? 47746 Why, Bob,"said he,"where did you get all that money?"
47746Why, what in the world did you make that thing for?
47746Wounded by a shell?
47746Yes, sa, I does; more dan all dis wuld; more dan a million of dollars, sa: for what would dat be wuf to a man wid de bref out of him? 47746 You do n''t mean to say you killed him?"
47746''Colonel, do you know what we are going to charge on?''
47746''Have you not seen it often enough to know it by this time?''
47746''Is n''t your line too much extended?''
47746''What does the general want me to do now?''
47746''Where is my support?''
47746''Why could he not have lived until I came?
47746--"Am I always to be like this, sergeant?"
47746--"Are you Virginians?"
47746--"Be you Christian men?"
47746--"But be you not rebels?"
47746--"Certainly,"was the response;"what is it?"
47746--"I am not in the habit of receiving my orders from General Jackson,"answered the officer;"what command do you belong to?"
47746--"Well, Bill, s''pose you should strike it rich, what then?"
47746A common exclamation of newly arrived prisoners, as they entered the appalling place, was,"Is this hell?"
47746A full- uniformed lieutenant, much disgusted at the"Who goes there?"
47746A sentence or two will suggest the drift of it:"Are you not over- cautious when you assume that you can not do what the enemy is constantly doing?
47746After supper the conversation turned upon the war, and the Confederate officer said:"What is the use of your persevering?
47746All at sea, he said:"Captain, where ought I to be now?"
47746And what claim founded in justice and right has been withheld?
47746Both arose, and, approaching Davis, one called out bluntly to the stranger,"Are n''t you Lieutenant Davis?"
47746But how was escape to be effected?
47746But if the rebellion is crushed before January 1st, 1863, what then?
47746Ca n''t we do something to bring it to a close?
47746Can I do nothing more for you?"
47746Can I not be permitted to save it?''
47746Can he strike?
47746Colonel McPherson rode up, and Grant said,''Well, Mac, how is it?''
47746Could she not bathe his head?
47746Cruel, haughty, and cold, He ever was strong and bold-- Shall he shrink from a wooden stem?
47746Dearest love, do you remember When we last did meet, How you told me that you loved me, Kneeling at my feet?
47746Death?
47746Do n''t yer see de door open?
47746Do you want dead men to decide your elections?
47746Fear?
47746Going to General Sherman to obtain reinstatement, the surgeon was asked:"Who caused your discharge?"
47746Grant telegraphed from army headquarters over his special field- wire:"Is there any difficulty in exploding the mine?"
47746Have you expressed an opinion as to the propriety of making terms, to President Davis or the Congress?"
47746He said:''Colonel, wo n''t you please write to my folks that I died a soldier?''"
47746He stopped me with his musket, demanding:"''Have you a pass, sir?''
47746His hilarious popularity was expressed in the common greeting:"You fights mit Sigel?
47746How could such a lady as you are come down here to take care of us poor, sick, dirty boys?"
47746I heard his teeth grate as he struggled to control himself, and then he spoke:"Doctor, will you do me a favor?"
47746I said to him,"What do you take us for?"
47746If the rebels turn loyal before that term?
47746If, amid the din of battle, Nobly you should fall, Far away from those who love you, None to hear you call, Who would whisper words of comfort?
47746In a letter of about that date he writes:''I am greeted on all sides with congratulations and"Where''s your hat?"
47746In answer to the hail,''What is the trouble?''
47746Is there any better or equal hope in the world?"
47746It is said that when his father gave him the name of the great Indian chief, Tecumseh, he remarked:"Who knows but this child may be a fighter?"
47746Just before he left I said to him:''Does my position suit you?
47746May I ask those who have not differed with me to join with me in this same spirit toward those who have?"
47746No one seemed to respond, and the only reply I heard was some one saying,''That man talks well, do n''t he?''
47746No sale for tar now?"
47746Now, general,"he said, looking me straight in the face,"what is to be done?"
47746On the way he was met by one of his brother servants, who inquired:"Wot''s de matter, Mingo?
47746One very young soldier who lay wounded said to her:"Where do you come from?
47746Reining in his horse, he accosted him with"How are you, North Carolina?"
47746Riding up to Colonel Colville, he said:"Do you see those colors?"
47746Shall I make preparations for retreat?''
47746Some one asked,''Auntie, where are you going?''
47746The officer who discovered him rebuked him sternly and asked,"Are you the sentinel here?"
47746The old negress, pointing her long finger at the old man, who was in the corner of the fireplace, hissed out,"What fer you sit dar?
47746The reply came quick and short:''Retreat?
47746The staff officer continued:"The blockade on turpentine makes you rather hard up, do n''t it?
47746To this the General made no reply, and McPherson continued,''Well, General Grant, under this condition of affairs, what do you propose to do, sir?
47746Virginia mud and Virginia swamps were celebrated by the invention of the response to the question,"Did you go through Virginia?"
47746WHAT IS TO BE DONE?
47746Want a weapon?
47746Want a weapon?
47746Was it moonlight so wondrously flashing?
47746Was the bright steel poisoned?
47746Was there death, green death, in the atmosphere?
47746Whar''s yo''gwine wid such a hurrification?"
47746What am I to do?
47746What are you doing here?
47746What interest of the South has been invaded?
47746What justice has been denied?
47746What kind of a hat do you want?"
47746What kind of a line?"
47746What on earth does the President want of your tar?"
47746What right has the North assailed?

47746Where, this day, is the commanding general?
47746Who call tell?
47746Who could estimate the number of officers and men he knew at the close of the war?
47746Who goes there?''
47746Who would soothe your pain?
47746Why should he not?
47746Why should we destroy our own property?"
47746Why?''
47746Will no one tell the Tenth of their fearful peril?
47746Will they keep doing this until we all die?''
47746You s''pose I wait sixty years for nutten?
47746and What was accomplished?
47746to reckon with the host, While we were marching through Georgia?
47746was it the night- wind that rustled the leaves?
47746what are you making all that fuss about over there?"
47746what flag is that?''
47746why do n''t you surrender?"
5391All?
5391And did you know that Mr. Brice had gone out, with letters, when the Judge was better?
5391And he means to stay here in the heat and go through, the campaign?
5391And is there nothing-- for me?
5391And now?
5391And so they are going into the house?
5391And what did you say?
5391And why did you always fight the aristocrats?
5391And you, Lige?
5391And your conscience?
5391And your family?
5391Are you doing this for a reward?
5391Are you sure that that is all?
5391Brinsmade,he said,"do you remember this room in May,''46?"
5391Broadswords?
5391But where? 5391 Could n''t you contrive to come?"
5391Did she answer your letter?
5391Did she mention Stephen?
5391Did she speak of him?
5391Did you mean the Judge?
5391Did you rent our house at Glencoe?
5391Do you guess we can keep off the subject, Comyn?
5391Do you mean war?
5391Do you really think that Tom is with the Yankees?
5391Do you recall the day you left your Harvard, and your Boston, my friend?
5391Do you think that Lincoln would make a good President?
5391Has he treated you badly, Ephum?
5391Have n''t you a costume?
5391Have you read the President''s message to Congress, sir? 5391 He is not coming?"
5391Here?
5391How about Judge Whipple?
5391How do you know?
5391I told you that we stayed with a real lord in England, did n''t I?
5391Is n''t she to marry him?
5391Is that all, Jinny?
5391It does not make any difference to you what my politics are, does it?
5391It was I who stopped you,she said;"I was waiting for--""For whom?"
5391Jinny,he said,"what is the matter?"
5391Lige, why do n''t you give up steamboating and come along to Europe? 5391 Lige, you''re not such a fool as to vote against the Union?"
5391Lige,he said,"is n''t it about time you got married?"
5391Making a case, Brice?
5391Marse Comyn?
5391My dear, what will Mr. Brice think of us?
5391Oh, Puss,cried Anne, that evening, for Miss Russell had come to spend the night,"how could you have talked to him so?
5391Oh, why do you ask that?
5391Pa said something about them to- night,she answered; why?"
5391See here, Mr. Korner,said he,"how did Richter come by that scar?
5391Shall I tell you a secret?
5391Stephen,said the Judge( here the surprise came in),"Stephen, what do you think of Mr. Lincoln''s chances for the Republican nomination?"
5391The foxes?
5391Then-- then you wo n''t marry me?
5391They have dared to nominate that dirty Lincoln,he said.--"Do you think that we will submit to nigger equality rule?
5391Tom, what does this mean?
5391Uncle Silas,she said,"are n''t you coming to dinner any more?"
5391What did he do?
5391What is it?
5391What makes you so late?
5391What then?
5391What''s the matter with you, Ephum?
5391Where have you been?
5391Where was Stephen Brice last night, Jack?
5391Whom did he mean, Jinny?
5391Whom have you invited, Anne?
5391Why could n''t things remain as they were?
5391Why did you come?
5391Why is n''t he coming?
5391Why not?
5391Why should I set him upon a pedestal?
5391Why, Jinny,cried Mr. Brinsmade,"what does this mean?
5391Why?
5391Yes?
5391You did not wish me to come?
5391You expected it?
5391You may remember a night at my uncle''s, Colonel Carvel''s, on the occasion of my cousin''s birthday?
5391You mean that this white trash Lincoln may be President?
5391''He said that to Colonel Carvel?"
5391''May I ask you what price you got for it?''
5391Abraham Lincoln would not have blushed between honest clerks and farmers Why should Stephen Brice?
5391Am I to be confronted with that Yankee everywhere I go?
5391And what mystery was it that sent him here this night of all nights?
5391And what, after all, was this girl to him?
5391And when?"
5391And who shall blame him if Miss Virginia''s replies to his sallies enchained him?
5391And yet why should he let his pride and his feelings stand in the way of the health-- perhaps of the life-- of Judge Whipple?
5391Are n''t you going to kiss me?"
5391Brice?"
5391Brice?"
5391Brice?"
5391But now?
5391But suppose he has addressed fifty Lincoln meetings, as they say, is that any reason for making much of him?
5391But what shall we say of Mr. Cluyme, and of a few others whose wealth alone enabled them to be Directors of the Fair?
5391But what was she to say to Virginia?
5391Can you look on while our own states defy us, and not lift a hand?
5391Can you sit still while the Governor and all the secessionists in this state are plotting to take Missouri, too, out of the Union?
5391Could any good come of it all?
5391Could he afford to risk his life in the war that was coming, and leave his mother dependent upon charity?
5391Did he, George?
5391Did it seem long, Jinny?"
5391Did you ever know any one to change so, since this military business has begun?
5391Did you, Jinny?"
5391Do you love your country, sir?
5391Do you remember when you told me that I was good for nothing, that I lacked purpose?"
5391Do you see the Southern delegates rising in their seats?
5391Do you see the bride in her high- waisted gown, and Mr. Calvin in his stock and his blue tail- coat and brass buttons?
5391Eh, Rudolph?"
5391Had it been a dream?
5391Had she done right?
5391Have you seen him since you got home, Jinny?
5391Hessians?
5391Hopper?"
5391How dare you?
5391How long, O Lord?"
5391How many readers will smile before the rest of this true incident is told?
5391I asked Easter where Jinny was, and I found her--""You found her--?"
5391Leaning over in the saddle, he whispered:"I''ll be back in a quarter of an hour Will you wait?"
5391Now that the ocean was to be between them, was it love that she felt for Clarence at last?
5391Now who do you think stopped at the booth for a chat with Miss Jinny?
5391Shall I stand by selfishly and see him ruined, and thousands of others like him?"
5391She wore--"but why destroy the picture?
5391They called the architecture Tudor, did n''t they, Pa?"
5391Was he doing right?
5391Was he like them?
5391Was it''Auld Robin Gray''that she sang?
5391Were there not other qualities?
5391Were they going to be able to keep it off?
5391What could she say to him?
5391What could the Leader and Captain Lyon do without troops?
5391What if she should raise her eyes, and amid those vulgar stares discern his own?
5391What should she say to Clarence now?
5391What, indeed, could he say?
5391When I am a general, will you marry me?"
5391Whether she had read that part before, who shall say?
5391Who bought her, sir?
5391Who made her blush as pink as her Paris gown?
5391Who slipped into her hand the contribution for the church, and refused to take the cream candy she laughingly offered him as an equivalent?
5391Who will you be?"
5391Why listen, to the rumblings in the South?
5391Why mention the dread possibility of the negro- worshiper Lincoln being elected the very next month?
5391Why not, and have done with sickening doubts?
5391Will you go with me, Jinny?"
5391Would it crumble in pieces before Abraham Lincoln got to Washington?
5391exclaimed the disgusted German,"will nothing move you?
5391said Puss, with a thread in her mouth;"why should you all set him upon a pedestal?
37907A hitch?
37907A what?
37907Ah, indeed?
37907Ah, making stowage, are you, Somers?
37907All right?
37907Am I a dog, or a snake, or a toad, that I should do such an unclean thing?
37907And the obstructions?
37907And you accepted the command?
37907And you appreciate gallant conduct?
37907Are you going to use that gun?
37907Are you ready for your breakfast?
37907Are you satisfied, Tom?
37907Are you satisfied, gentlemen?
37907Are you sure?
37907Are you, indeed?
37907Big thing, eh, Coles?
37907But how could he get into the hold?
37907But why did you sign the oath of allegiance to the Southern Confederacy?
37907By the way, Somers, did you see your friend Wynkoop again before we sailed?
37907By the way, Somers, what do you think of our friend Pillgrim?
37907By whose command?
37907Ca n''t we?
37907Ca n''t you? 37907 Ca n''t you?
37907Can I refuse to believe the evidence of my own eyes?
37907Can you show him a Confederate oath of allegiance signed by me?
37907Captain Pillgrim''s, sir?
37907Captain Pillgrim, what shall be done with the men who came on board with you?
37907Captain Pillgrim?
37907Certainly; have you any weapons about you?
37907Changed them-- did he?
37907Come to anchor, sir?
37907Could I see him?
37907Dangerously?
37907Did he sign my name to it?
37907Did he, indeed? 37907 Did n''t you recognize Mr. Pillgrim''s voice?"
37907Did you find out whether there was any such person at the house as Tom Barron?
37907Did you see anybody, or anything?
37907Did you, though?
37907Did you?
37907Do n''t you hear what I say?
37907Do n''t you? 37907 Do n''t you?"
37907Do you dread the time?
37907Do you know Coles?
37907Do you know Lieutenant Pillgrim?
37907Do you know what steamer that is?
37907Do you think I could make anything of him?
37907Do you think I intend to show you my hand?
37907Do you think, Mr. Pillgrim, that I am a little lamb, that can be led round with a silken string?
37907Do you, indeed?
37907Does he know how to get through the obstructions?
37907Does your head pain you?
37907Fail?
37907Four o''clock?
37907From what point did you expect me to come, before my arrival?
37907Have n''t you had your breakfast yet?
37907Have you any more old sherry that has made two voyages to India?
37907Have you gained it?
37907He''s a horrible villain-- arn''t he?
37907How are you, Johnny Reb?
37907How are you, Langdon?
37907How did_ you_ happen to be there?
37907How do you feel, Somers?
37907How do you know?
37907How does Mr. Pillgrim appear?
37907How happened you to tell your officers that Pillgrim was coming down in a Yankee man- of- war?
37907How is he?
37907How is the prisoner?
37907How many men has she on board?
37907How should I? 37907 How should I?"
37907How was that?
37907How wounded?
37907How?
37907I see, sir: you have the Yankee signals?
37907I?
37907I?
37907I?
37907If Captain Cascabel and Mr. Hackleford both knew that Mr. Pillgrim was a traitor, why did they send him out to capture that steamer? 37907 If I ca n''t, why should I try?"
37907If you do? 37907 If you mean it, why do n''t you say it?
37907Indeed?
37907Indeed?
37907Is Captain Pillgrim on board?
37907Is he a naval officer?
37907Is he dead?
37907Is he on board?
37907Is he up to his business?
37907Is it all right?
37907Is it possible?
37907Is n''t he up yet?
37907Is n''t she going to Mobile?
37907Is there a sailor by the name of Thomas Barron in this house?
37907Is there any one in Garboard''s state- room?
37907Is there anybody in the front room?
37907Is this all you expect of me?
37907Is your ship here?
37907May I beg the favor of your company to dinner with me in my private parlor to- day?
37907Mine?
37907Mr. Hackleford, may I trouble you to read this statement?
37907Mr. Somers, may I beg the favor of half an hour''s conversation with you, when I have done my breakfast?
37907Mr. Somers, what do you know of the Ben Nevis?
37907Mr. Somers, what is your plan? 37907 My dear fellow, what possible difference does that make?
37907No; where should I get a pass, or what should I want one for?
37907No?
37907Not turned in, Mr. Somers? 37907 Of course, gentlemen, you have no idea to what point the Chatauqua has been ordered?"
37907On my travels?
37907Once more, Mr. Somers, will you obey me, or will you not?
37907Only one day, Tom?
37907Possibly; but even grant that I did it myself-- what then?
37907Pray, where were you when human wisdom was distributed?
37907Shall I send you up anything?
37907Shall I sign?
37907Sorry, you wretch?
37907Suppose they do?
37907Thank you; but do you really believe that the South will carry the day?
37907The Ben Nevis is no humbug?
37907The rebels have fought well; what of it?
37907The what?
37907Then you are expected by the Yankees?
37907Then you are making fun of me?
37907Then you have been reading my letters-- have you?
37907They are Yankees-- are they not?
37907They will give us three cheers, wo n''t they?
37907To what do you allude?
37907Under arrest?
37907Was it your duty to sign that vile paper?
37907Was n''t there a dingy, or a jolly- boat, at the stern?
37907Well, Captain Column, have you got your weather eye open? 37907 Well, doctor, how is your patient?"
37907Well, how is Miss Portington?
37907Well, why do n''t you do it, then?
37907Were you very much astonished?
37907What are you doing here?
37907What bank?
37907What boat is that?
37907What boat?
37907What did she stop for?
37907What do you mean, you villain?
37907What do you think of him, doctor?
37907What do you think of those, then, that began this war?
37907What do you want here?
37907What do you want of me, Mr.--Pillgrim? 37907 What do you want of me?"
37907What does this mean, Somers?
37907What for?
37907What has all this to do with me?
37907What have I got on? 37907 What have you got on, Tom?"
37907What is her name?
37907What is she doing in here, then?
37907What is she?
37907What is that?
37907What is the matter, Kate? 37907 What is wanted?"
37907What more?
37907What papers do you want?
37907What shall be done with them?
37907What was that noise?
37907What was the business?
37907What would you do with him?
37907What''s all right?
37907What''s that, Tom?
37907What''s that?
37907What''s that?
37907What''s that?
37907What''s the matter, Tom?
37907What''s the matter?
37907What?
37907When did Mr. Langdon come on board?
37907Where am I?
37907Where are the torpedoes?
37907Where bound?
37907Where did you get your commission?
37907Where does she lie?
37907Where is Captain Walmsley?
37907Where is Langdon now?
37907Where is Mr. Pillgrim now?
37907Where is Mr. Pillgrim, sir?
37907Where is the Tallapoosa? 37907 Where is this Somers?"
37907Who are you, sir, that step upon this deck in that overbearing manner?
37907Who are you, sir?
37907Who are you?
37907Who are you?
37907Who are you?
37907Who is he, captain?
37907Who is he?
37907Who is the prize master?
37907Who?
37907Why did you take it then?
37907Why did you tell me beforehand, if you intended to catch me with the treasonable offer?
37907Why do n''t it blow up, then?
37907Why do n''t you call them rebels?
37907Why do n''t you do it, then?
37907Why do n''t you take command yourself?
37907Why do you qualify your words? 37907 Why do you say so?"
37907Why do you wish so?
37907Why not mine?
37907Why not, father?
37907Why should both of us have been called? 37907 Why so?"
37907Why so?
37907Why so?
37907Why so?
37907Why suspicious?
37907Why was that done?
37907Will Miss Portington be there?
37907Will he board a Yankee frigate?
37907Will you allow me to take this letter in cipher, and keep it till to- morrow?
37907Will you blow her up when we are gone?
37907Will you go where I lead you?
37907Will you kill me?
37907Will you leave me in the midst of the fire, ironed hand and foot?
37907Will you present my compliments to Mr. Somers, and say that I beg the favor of an interview with him?
37907Will you tell me, then, where the Ben Nevis is bound? 37907 With me?"
37907With what am I charged?
37907Would your friend Langdon,_ alias_ Lieutenant Wynkoop, R. N., be equally considerate?
37907You are my superior officer, and as such I will respect and obey you until-- until--"Until what?
37907You are willing to acknowledge that the rebels have fought well in this war?
37907You have other visitors?
37907You left him at Fortress Monroe?
37907You listened to this talk between Coles and Langdon at the sailors''boarding- house in Front Street?
37907You mean Somers?
37907You were in the Chatauqua with him?
37907You will sign?
37907Your father?
37907Your orders?
37907Are there any ears within hail of us?"
37907Are you aware that any court martial would convict you, on the evidence against you, of treason, and sentence you to death?"
37907Are you still ready to undertake the work?"
37907Be you any relation of his?"
37907But, Somers, my dear fellow,--you will pardon me if I seem impertinent,--how did you happen to be in such a place?"
37907By the way, Mr. Somers, you were with him on the Mississippi?"
37907Could the boats have overhauled her?"
37907Did Kate think he was an adventurer?
37907Did he not endeavor to involve the fourth lieutenant in the meshes of the conspiracy for the purpose of obtaining his assistance in this work?
37907Did he really say that?"
37907Did you see him?"
37907Do n''t you see the American flag at her peak?"
37907Do you see my point?"
37907Do you understand me?"
37907Good liquor-- isn''t it, Langdon?"
37907Have you and Mr. Somers had a falling out?"
37907Have you seen anything of the Ben Nevis?"
37907He could give his information to the United States marshal at Philadelphia; but how could he prove his allegations?
37907How do you feel about it?"
37907How do you think he stands affected towards our cause?"
37907How is Miss Portington?"
37907How is this?
37907Hudson?"
37907I am going through the Yankee fleet; will you go with me?"
37907I beg your pardon, Captain Pillgrim; have you a pass?"
37907I have done it-- haven''t I?"
37907If she had any objection to him, why did n''t she tell him so?
37907Is piracy respectable because these men fought well?"
37907Is the ship ready to sail?"
37907It is well done-- is it not?"
37907Langdon?"
37907Longstone?"
37907Might I beg the favor of a few moments''private conversation with you?"
37907Now, Mr. Somers, will you tell me how you happen to be here?"
37907Pillgrim?"
37907Pillgrim?"
37907Pillgrim?"
37907Pillgrim?"
37907Pillgrim?"
37907Pillgrim?"
37907Shall I hear from you when you reach your station?"
37907Shall I open it?"
37907Shall I send for him, Captain Pillgrim?"
37907Shall we put the helm to starboard, Captain Somers?"
37907Somers?"
37907Somers?"
37907Somers?"
37907Somers?"
37907Somers?"
37907Somers?"
37907Somers?"
37907Somers?"
37907Somers?"
37907Somers?"
37907Somers?"
37907Somers?"
37907Suppose the traitor has been on board the Ben Lomond?"
37907Swayne?"
37907Swayne?"
37907That''s odd-- isn''t it?"
37907The signal book also contains a great number of questions and answers, such as,"What ship is that?"
37907There''s nothing about a ship that you do n''t know as well as the admiral himself, except--""Except,"laughed Tom, as Somers paused,"except what?"
37907To the question,"What ship is that?"
37907Was Pillgrim a confederate of Langdon?
37907Was she so?
37907Was there any such vessel in existence as the Ben Lomond?
37907What do you think of the weather?"
37907What does all that mean?"
37907What else did he tell you?"
37907What matter is it to me how he fell, whether it was in fair fight or foul?
37907What time is it?"
37907What would I have done if you had slipped your wind?"
37907Where are they?"
37907Where away is she?"
37907Where did you get it?"
37907Where is Langdon?"
37907Who and what was Lieutenant Pillgrim?
37907Who is he, and what is he?"
37907Why did Pillgrim start for Mobile in the Chatauqua?
37907Why did n''t you tell me so, John?"
37907Why should it mean anything to her and her mother?
37907Why was he not sent to the hospital?"
37907Will you go with me?"
37907Will you show me to his room?"
37907Will you sign the bond?"
37907Would n''t it be glorious, if I could send such a despatch as Captain Winslow did, after he had sunk the Alabama?"
37907Yet to whom could he speak?
37907You do-- don''t you?"
37907You know of what the cargo of the Ben Nevis is composed?"
37907You understand?"
37907do you hear four bells?"
37907if that is your name?"
5389Again this week? 5389 Ai n''t yo''be''n raised better''n to stan''theh wif yo''mouf open?"
5389And then you will marry me, Jinny?
5389And what shall I do?
5389And when did I ever talk to you about the quality, you scalawag?
5389And who should be the last to leave, but the captain? 5389 And, Jinny?"
5389Any more epithets?
5389Are you angry with me still? 5389 Are you?"
5389Be you asked to Virginia Carvel''s party?
5389But how do you know, Jinny?
5389Colonel,replied Brent,"do you recall the rough and uncouth young citizen who came over here from Cincinnati, as clerk on the Vicksburg?"
5389Come,he insisted,"what have they been doing to my girl?"
5389Did you ever miss bringing her a present, Lige?
5389Did you wish to look at the house, madam?
5389Do you remember, one morning some five years ago, when I took in at the store a Yankee named Hopper? 5389 Do you think I would have him in my house?"
5389Drat you, Lige, why do n''t you kiss the girl? 5389 Enjoy in''yourself?"
5389Give me up? 5389 Grant, did you ever see my little sweetheart, Jinny Carvel?"
5389Have n''t we enough Black Republican friends?
5389He''s a bachelor,said Virginia; what use has he got for it?"
5389How come she recommembered, Marse Comyn? 5389 How could he help it?"
5389How do you know?
5389Is he coming here to- night?
5389Jinny, ai n''t I nussed you always? 5389 Jinny, ca n''t you say something bright?
5389Jinny?
5389Lige,said the Colonel, putting up his feet,"do you remember the French toys you used to bring up here from New Orleans?"
5389Max, ca n''t you understand? 5389 Max,"said she, all at once,"why do n''t you settle down to something?
5389Ned,said Virginia, sternly,"do you want to go back to cooking?"
5389Ned,she demanded suddenly,"would you like to be free?"
5389Now, sir, the pleadings?
5389Oh, do you think so?
5389Pa,she began,"Pa, did you ever see the pearls Dorothy Carvel wore on her wedding day?
5389Pa,she said,"is it--?"
5389Preparing? 5389 Sambo, where''s your mistress?"
5389Say, Grant, what kind of appearing fellow was he?
5389So Ben ordered you out, Mammy?
5389So you wo n''t have him?
5389Then--?
5389To do what?
5389Virginia,he whispered earnestly, almost fiercely, Virginia, who invited him here?"
5389Well, what?
5389What do you mean?
5389What else did he say?
5389What has he done to you, Virginia?
5389What has your life been?
5389What makes you imagine that he thought of you at all, my dear?
5389What on earth do you mean?
5389What''s his name?
5389What?
5389What?
5389Where are you off to, Lige?
5389Where did you get all this?
5389Where did you hear all this?
5389Where''s Aunt Lillian?
5389Where''s Mr. Clarence? 5389 Who brought it, mother?"
5389Who done freed her?
5389Who spoils her, Lige?
5389Who spoils you, Jinny?
5389Who told you this?
5389Why do n''t you open it, and see?
5389Why do you listen to Clarence''s horse talk?
5389Why have n''t I the right?
5389Why not?
5389Why you ax me dat, Jinny?
5389Why, Jinny,he cried,"what''s the matter?"
5389Yes?
5389You are drilling now?
5389You do n''t mean that you made him pay you for the boat?
5389You do not care for me as I am?
5389You think it will come to war?
5389You were all what?
5389You''re not going?
5389Young Masr? 5389 ''And you dare to come in here? 5389 Ah, Virginia, who had thought to hear that argument from your lips? 5389 Ai n''t I come upstairs to quiet you when yo''mammy ai n''t had no power ovah yo''? 5389 Ai n''t I cooked fo''yo'', and ai n''t I followed you everywheres since I quit ridin''yo''pa''s bosses to vict''ry? 5389 Ai n''t I one of de fambly? 5389 Ai n''t there anything I can do?
5389An''yit yo''ax me to call yo''Miss Jinny?"
5389And how give an account of yourself to Anne Brinsmade?
5389And is that any reason why he should not come here as a guest?
5389And who builds them?
5389And, secondarily, how would Virginia treat him if he came?
5389Because the world has been a wicked place of oppression since Noah''s day, is that any reason why it should so continue until the day of Judgment?"
5389Bill Jenks said:''Are you plum crazy, Brent?
5389Brice?"
5389Brice?"
5389Ca n''t you read, sir?''
5389Ca n''t you see how one sin leads to another, Carvel?
5389Ca n''t you see she''s waiting?"
5389Colfax?"
5389Did you ever see them?"
5389Do I have to listen to Clarence''s horse talk for another hour?
5389Do n''t you know better than that?
5389Do you remember Mr. Benbow''s Hester, girls?
5389Do you think any gentleman would do that, Puss Russell?"
5389Do you wonder that we contend for our rights, tooth and nail?
5389Eh, Ned?"
5389Had Comyn Carvel been selfish?
5389Had he dreamed, too, of the girl?
5389Has he no shame that he should hold his head so high?
5389Have you ever eaten a German dinner, Mr. Brice?
5389Have you seen him, Clarence?"
5389Hopper?"
5389How do Republics go there?
5389How slavery is rapidly demoralizing a free people?"
5389How was the boy to know that there was no heart in the smile with which she greeted him?
5389Is it not so in English?"
5389It ai n''t broke off?"
5389Jinny, what''s the story I hear about Judge Whipple''s young man buying Hester?"
5389Might not the price of this little house be likewise a piece of the Brinsmade charity?
5389No?
5389No?
5389Of Virginia?
5389Pa, will you let me?"
5389Shall it be confessed that curiosity stepped into the breach?
5389Shall it be told crudely why he went that night?
5389Then she said:"Do you think, in bidding against me, that he behaved, like a gentleman?"
5389Then turning to Virginia, he said,"Will you dance, Miss Carvel?"
5389Was there ever, in all this wide country, a good cook who was not a tyrant?
5389Were the poor in London in the days of the Edwards as well off as our niggers are to- day?"
5389What Southern lady, to the manner born, is not a cook from the cradle?
5389What can you do--?"
5389What contrariness has set you so intense against your own argument?
5389What did he say?"
5389What do we know about business and developing the resources of the country?
5389What do you know?
5389What makes you jump like that?
5389What mere man may write with any confidence of the delicacies which were prepared in Uncle''s kitchen that morning?
5389What on earth is the matter?"
5389What would frank Captain Lige say of the consistency of women, if he heard you now?
5389What''ll her husband say?"
5389Where are you going, Jinny?"
5389Where had he seen Colfax''s face before he came West?
5389Where''s your leader?"
5389Whether he had seen the incident just past, who can tell?
5389Who ever heard of a good Yankee family?"
5389Who invites any one here?"
5389Why do n''t you work?"
5389Why does Comyn put up with him?"
5389Will you have some gumbo soup?"
5389Would you bar any gentleman from your house on account of his convictions?"
5389You ai nt gwinter forget?
5389You do n''t know the Edmunds?
5389You have done so much for us, sir,--couldn''t you come to her for a little while?
5389You have n''t been there?
5389You would fight, Richter?
5389You, a foreigner?"
5389cried Clarence,"do you know who he is?"
5389cried Mr. Whipple,"what are we coming to?
5389exclaimed Jinny,"why?"
5389said Mrs. Colfax, laughing,"what could he do?"
5389said the Colonel,"what''s the trouble now?"
5389shouts old Wright, flying''round in his chair,''what the devil does this mean?
5389think I''se skeered o''him, honey?
44304Ai n''t they?
44304Ai n''t you feelin''well?
44304And by what mercy camest thou at my heels?
44304And does the king come there oftener than into Shropshire?
44304And how here, of all spots under the sky?
44304And this merry fellow; hath the Duke need for him likewise?
44304And thou art skilled in his craft?
44304And who writ ye this?
44304And you leave me there?
44304Anybody there?
44304Are you feeling all right?
44304Art fit for great news?
44304Art from the German countries?
44304Art ill, boy?
44304Art sure it was a knight who ordered the letter to be writ?
44304As far as London town?
44304Badge? 44304 Bring that for the old man?"
44304But what am I to get?
44304But what are you doing here, anyway?
44304But who else is here in the barn? 44304 Ca n''t we get snow- shoes?"
44304Can he do it? 44304 Canst not wait till thou art dead for that?"
44304Cleveland''s in Ohio, ai n''t it?
44304Do I come in for any watches and silver- mounted Derringers, too?
44304Do n''t I tell you they wo n''t have him? 44304 Do n''t you remember?
44304Do n''t you see old Asa''s upset and nervous about Mose? 44304 Do you get warmth?"
44304Dot vas no harm, eh, dot vas only some little fun, eh, to make me on fire und burn me up mit the rest in dot shteam- boat? 44304 Dots a beauty, ain''d it?
44304Downright cur''ous that we should''a''happened to hit on you like this, ai n''t it?
44304Foldeen, do you know what this fellow here''s been doing?
44304For how lives an Abbey save by the death of generous and holy men and women? 44304 Geraldus of the types and press-- the printer?"
44304Get hurt any?
44304Had you then a master, too?
44304Hast forgotten the funerals?
44304He ai n''t dead, then?
44304How bad are you hurt? 44304 How badly off is he?"
44304How did you come to let yourself down like this, dad?
44304How do I know?
44304How long''ll it be before daylight?
44304How make it good?
44304How shall it be otherwise? 44304 How should I leave thee, Dickon?"
44304How wilt thou make that good?
44304How wist ye he is a penman?
44304How you like him, dot Red Pete, eh?
44304I ai n''t, eh?
44304I have n''t done you any harm, have I?
44304I s''pose them''s handcuffs you''ve got there in your pocket?
44304I say, Foldeen, have they scooped the old band wagon? 44304 I suppose you''ll take to the woods, wo n''t you?"
44304If I agree not to hurt you, will you do what I tell you?
44304If he chance to get his head broken, how will Sir Watty make shift for a smith?
44304If they are in the church itself, think you they will spare mere cells and offices?
44304If you had a hull battery of twelve- pounders with you, I could n''t do no more''n that, could I? 44304 Is dot you, Lafe?"
44304Is it bigger then than Egswith?
44304Is it far-- that''Owg''--what name do you call it?
44304Is that the tree?
44304It is thy hand, eh?
44304It''s pitch dark outdoors, ai n''t it?
44304Know ye what is come upon us?
44304Left the hospital camp up there, eh?
44304Let me in out of the cold, ca n''t ye?
44304Loaded?
44304Look here, Asa Whipple, is that straight what you''re telling me-- that Mose has started off to give himself up?
44304Me? 44304 Milk late again this morning?"
44304Oh, got your discharge and''listed again?
44304Remember how Mose Whipple used to sing?
44304Saw you what they build, there by the cross?
44304Say, take this thing off, wo n''t you?
44304Say, unlock this, will you?
44304Say, we had a squeak for it, did n''t we?
44304See here,Norman Hazzard went on,"I represent Uncle Sam, do n''t I?
44304Shall I run in and get it for you?
44304Since what time, my Lord Abbot,asked the King, dryly,"hath the privilege of sanctuary descended upon the black monks of Tewkesbury?"
44304So here''s where you moved to, eh?
44304Thou hast heard of Master Caxton?
44304Und now it looks like dot game of his vas pretty near blayed out, eh?
44304Vell, how you make it out?
44304Want them to tell''Lishe Teachout you''re blabbin''about his affairs, you sawney?
44304Well, den, vare is gone dem second men of ours?
44304Well, then, what are you talkin''about?
44304Well, why_ do n''t_ you enlist then?
44304Were it not better to leave him?
44304Were there ever two such simpletons under one roof?
44304What ails you this mornin''?
44304What are you driving at?
44304What are you figgerin''on doin'', anyway, Mose?
44304What are you? 44304 What can I do, then?"
44304What did you want to pitch on to me that way for?
44304What do you figure on doin''with yourself?
44304What do you mean, Job?
44304What do you say to sneaking down there, and trying to find something to eat?
44304What harm could be in me?
44304What is it you want me to do?
44304What means it-- badge?
44304What mummery is this?
44304What name hast thou?
44304What on earth are you drivin''at?
44304What other wears ink upon his fingers? 44304 What others?"
44304What palsied spiders''-tracks are these?
44304What to- do is this?
44304What''s that you say?
44304What''s the matter with the old man, here?
44304What''s the use of talking that way?
44304What''s your idea, anyway?
44304What-- my Troilus?
44304When a life hangs on a few paltry scratches of the pen, should we be Christians to withhold them?
44304Where are you?
44304Where do you belong?
44304Where had ye that ring?
44304Where''d you come from, anyway, and what business have you got here?
44304Wherefore came you hither, then?
44304Which way is the creek?
44304Whither leads this room?
44304Who art thou, churl?
44304Who said anything about hangin''? 44304 Who talketh of Wakefield?
44304Whose blood is this?
44304Why do n''t you go and stop him yourself?
44304Why do n''t you save him yourself?
44304Why not?
44304Why, do n''t you remember,he cried, with pleased interest,"how I said I had a brother like you at home?"
44304Why, they hang men caught robbing the dead on battle- fields, do n''t they-- specially when they''re bounty- jumpers to begin with?
44304Wo n''t he, surgeon- major?
44304Yes, but seeing you ai n''t going to shoot, what are you going to do?
44304Yes, but where shall we find General Boyce?
44304Yon leathern gear-- is it goodly?
44304You ai n''t gone and deserted, have you?
44304You come straight?
44304You mean that I''m to stay here?
44304You''re Hank Parshall''s boy, ai n''t you?
44304You''re a drummer, ai n''t you?
44304You''re lookin''after these loons, heh? 44304 You''re one of the new regiments brought over to us from the old First Corps, ai n''t you?"
44304_ How vas it mit you, Lafe?_The words were undoubtedly in the air.
44304--it was Mowbray who spoke--"Who comes thus covered?
44304231"SIR WATTY CAME STALKING DOWN"249"''WHOSE BLOOD IS THIS?''"
44304A nize Ghristmas- dree, all by ourselves, eh?
44304A soldier may come back, but how can one hope for the return of a deserter?
44304And at whose behest?"
44304And then he added,"Whither go we; into the very tusks of the boar?"
44304And wert thou set upon by these knaves?"
44304And where shall they be buried, but here, within the holy Abbey''s walls?
44304And writ ye the letter?
44304Art fit for it?"
44304Art thou the duke of these parts?"
44304At last he spoke, turning abruptly to the boy:--"Canst write me a letter, to- night?"
44304Badge?"
44304Besides, what''s the use?
44304Bread, you say?
44304But see here,--this is a good deal more important,--what are you going to do, dad, after I''m gone?"
44304But what beats me is, what did he expect to do with them?
44304But-- but it''s all right now, ai n''t it, Mose?
44304Can you walk?"
44304Did you ever see such a tumble- down place in all your life?
44304Do you mean to tell me-- a man of your age-- you did n''t know_ that_?"
44304Does anybody know whether he''s the same one?"
44304For what is''sacrilege''but a weapon forged by Holy Church to use against the laity, to our great profit and their uplifting?
44304General Boyce said something about Juno Mills-- my father came from near there-- you do n''t mean to say you''re a Hornbeck?"
44304He added, upon reflection:"Say, sonny, can you manage to get me something to eat?
44304He kept his jaw from knocking together with an effort, and asked as if at his ease:"What mean you, good sir?
44304How could the king know, if he slipped in some food while- times?
44304How did you come to git off, Mose?"
44304How was it, Job wondered, that he had missed all ten of his shots at Mose?
44304How''s old Teachout?"
44304Hugh, with a despairing effort, gathered his wits, and asked faintly:"Are you the Sir Hereward, then, to whom''twas writ?"
44304I did n''t hurt you, did I?"
44304I promised----""Promised Mose, eh?"
44304I s''pose it would be different, would n''t it?
44304Is it as bad as all that?"
44304It''s afternoon, is n''t it?"
44304Just some funny joke, eh?
44304Michiganders?"
44304Of course Mose is in one place, and the army''s in another, but that do n''t prove that it was n''t the army that deserted Mose, does it?
44304One thing''s certain-- I ai n''t down South,_ be_ I?"
44304Or was he hunting for his cap?
44304Prob''ly you''ve heard-- is he-- is his health pretty middlin''good?"
44304See?"
44304Shall he begin now?"
44304So he got drafted, did he?
44304Tell me, how came you by it?
44304That was the bedroom window; how was it his father had not heard him?
44304Then he said, drawing nearer to the blaze and heaving a long, comforted breath:--"Whose man art thou?"
44304Time?
44304To do what?
44304Ve hang him on a dree, eh?
44304Was any other more free than I, with my old master?
44304Was ever such madness?
44304Was it still there?
44304Was life truly gone?
44304We''re in our own lines here, ai n''t we?"
44304What are you getting at, anyhow?"
44304What are your ears for, fools?
44304What do they desert for?
44304What do you here?"
44304What had happened?
44304What kind o''nonsense are you talkin'', anyway?"
44304What time is it gettin''to be?"
44304What was it?
44304What were these plans?
44304What''s your regiment?"
44304What_ kin_ you do with men like that?"
44304Where are you hit?"
44304Where shall I find security, good brother?"
44304Where was his father?
44304Which way is it?"
44304Who hath promised victory to these ribald Devon louts?
44304Who is thy master?"
44304Wilt follow, and hear the Mass?"
44304Wist you not it is Christmas?
44304Wist you not that?"
44304You ca n''t mean my father?
44304You remember''em, do n''t you, Job?"
44304You were here, nurse?"
44304[ Illustration:"WHOSE BLOOD IS THIS?"]
44304_ Now_ do you see?"
44304broke in the artist Thomas;"wert thou bred for a gravedigger?
44304he exclaimed,"when?"
44304he had saved his life from the bitterly cold night, but was it not only to lose it again at the hands of the hangman or the firing party?
44304may I run and behold the brave sight?"
44304me foolin''?"
44304queried the old man, advancing toward him,"what else kin we do?"
40430And what and where is the square?
40430And where is the road by which the guerillas will or have arrived at the place?
40430And where were they going?
40430And you have deserted your companions in arms?
40430Are there only two of them?
40430Are these Titus''s boys standing here?
40430Are you a loyal citizen of the United States?
40430Are you all idiots?
40430Are you and the other man provided with commissions from any source?
40430Artie, do you know where Captain Truman is posted with his command?
40430BE YOU UNS SOLDIERS, MASS''R?
40430Be you uns soldiers, Mars''r?
40430But are you not an officer, Deck?
40430But how came he on the hill road?
40430But how could they have got around to the point where you saw them?
40430But if they were breaking camp, why have we not heard from them before this time?
40430But what became of you?
40430But what do you know about the approach of the guerillas, Clover?
40430But what do you suppose has become of Dexter, Knox?
40430But where are we going, Artie?
40430But you expect there will be a fight, do n''t you, Deck?
40430But, father, do you expect to fight this battle without me?
40430Can I take my place in the ranks where I belong, father?
40430Can it be possible that the commander of the Rangers has obtained information of our presence here, and of the result of the affair at the bridge?
40430Can it be reached without going by the south road?
40430Can you make out any movement of the enemy to the south of us, Major Lyon?
40430Can you make out what Lieutenant Gadbury is doing, Deck?
40430Captain Tites and his men--"Captain who?"
40430Captain Truman, have you noticed a considerable knoll on the left of the south road, just above the cross- roads?
40430Ceph? 40430 Colonel Coffee, is there any other road than the one by which we have come from Greeltop that leads to the south?"
40430Coming, be they, Deck?
40430Could I see the young man that was foremost in saving me? 40430 Did that captain you spoke of drink whiskey, Cato?"
40430Did you cut through the enemy?
40430Did you hear no noise of any kind?
40430Did you hear what they said when they came to the house?
40430Did you make out how many there were, Layder?
40430Did you see anybody over there?
40430Do n''t you know Tom Lobkill? 40430 Do n''t you see?
40430Do n''t you think we uns are right smart down this way?
40430Do n''t you think you have carried me about far enough?
40430Do they know the Riverlawn Cavalry is here, father?
40430Do you belong to the company encamped in the woods farther down the road?
40430Do you come from that house beyond the cornfield?
40430Do you expect, little po''k- eater, we uns should''a''let you do such a wicked deed as that?
40430Do you know what those villains are doing there, Cato?
40430Do you know where the railroad bridge over the creek is?
40430Do you know where there are any of them?
40430Do you mean to shoot them down as they stick in the mud there? 40430 Do you see that flag on the railroad bridge, Dexter?"
40430Do you see that little knoll not fifty rods from us?
40430Do you suppose I can enlist in one of your companies, Deck?
40430Do you suppose the first company will remain where they are for any length of time?
40430Do you suppose the flag means that he has found Deck, father?
40430Do you suppose there is any danger of another invasion of Greeltop to- night from the north, Colonel Coffee?
40430Do you surrender?
40430Do you surrender?
40430Do you surrender?
40430Do you understand it all, Dexter?
40430Do you want me to kill him? 40430 Fiction?
40430Has anything been done at the bridge?
40430Have n''t I done so, Captain Truman?
40430Have they left the blocusses on foot behind?
40430Have we licked that Home Guard?
40430Have you any message for the major, Captain?
40430Have you anything to advise, Captain Gordon?
40430Have you seen Tom Lobkill about here in your travels on this bridge?
40430Have you seen anything of the guerillas, Life?
40430Have you seen the enemy, Artie?
40430Have you seen the enemy, Withers?
40430Have you your watch with you, Dexter?
40430How are you now, Artie?
40430How did you find us this morning?
40430How do you feel, Major Vinegold?
40430How do you know there is any company there?
40430How do you suppose the Texans got out of the mud- hole, Deck?
40430How does he stand on the war question? 40430 How many companies have you, Deck?"
40430How many men are there at the house, or near it, Cato?
40430How many men can you muster in your company?
40430How many of them are there, Life?
40430How many of them are there?
40430How many of them were there?
40430How many were there of them?
40430How''s that, little sonny? 40430 I am fixing the bridge, do n''t you see?"
40430I did n''t mean to scare your horse, sir,said the elder of the ladies;"but for the love of Heaven, ca n''t you do something for my husband?"
40430I do n''t know whar I am, Jube; do you?
40430I heard a volley a little while ago; has there been another engagement?
40430I know it is; did n''t father say they were to come over here to do their work? 40430 I reckon so too; but whar''s here, Jupiter?"
40430I reckon you hain''t seen nothin''on''em, hev yon, Deck Lyons? 40430 I saw that six of you came down the hill together; have you left no pickets in front of the company?"
40430I suppose you are a Union man, sir?
40430I''m sure I do n''t know; why did n''t you ask your father, if you want to know?
40430Is it a large force?
40430Is it possible that Uncle Titus''s family are reduced to such a strait?
40430Is n''t there any way for those men to get out of that quagmire?
40430Is that you, Deck? 40430 Is there any news from up above, Major Lyon?"
40430Is there any open place at the end of the hill where the captain is, to the right of the grove?
40430Is your company the only body of troops about here?
40430It is you who have brought this message, is it, Clover?
40430No, I did n''t, Life; what''s the use of making such a to- do about nothing? 40430 Not gone, Deck?"
40430Now, Joseph, where were the guerillas when you saw them?
40430Now, Mr. Barkland, do you know of any other body of troops in this vicinity?
40430Now, who are you?
40430That''s what''s the matter, is it? 40430 Then they had supper at the mansion?"
40430Then what are you doing with me now?
40430Then what did you ask me if I belonged to it for?
40430Then you propose to go to Plain Hill, Major?
40430Then you think they have camped at some place not far from us?
40430Then your master has plenty of money?
40430Then, Captain Dingfield has gone out with his whole company to intercept Gordon?
40430Upon what did you disagree with him?
40430W''ich o''you uns is Mars''r Major Lyon?
40430Well, Beck, what is your news?
40430Well, Deck, is the business finished?
40430Well, Deck, what do you make of it?
40430Well, Deck, what next?
40430Well, Dexter, you have been playing the hero again, have you?
40430Well, my little dandy, what now?
40430Well, what is it?
40430Well, which side is he on?
40430Well, why do n''t they burn it, then?
40430What are the Sesh soldiers here for, Cato?
40430What are them men doin''in there?
40430What are they? 40430 What are they?"
40430What are you doing here?
40430What are you doing here?

40430What are you going to do now, Deck?
40430What are you going to do with me?
40430What be they goin''over that way for if that ai n''t what they mean?
40430What brought you here, Deck Lyon? 40430 What can that mean, Colonel?"
40430What company do you belong to?
40430What did I say that was not true?
40430What did you see?
40430What do these two darkies want?
40430What do you know about this attack upon Plain Hill, Lieutenant?
40430What do you suppose has become of Deck, father?
40430What do you think of the idea advanced by Knox, Captain Gordon?
40430What does all this mean, Deck? 40430 What does this mean?"
40430What else can they do?
40430What fight?
40430What has turned up now?
40430What have you here?

40430What makes you so late, boys?
40430What makes you think so, Deck?
40430What next?
40430What other business have they got there?
40430What things?
40430What time is it now?
40430What was it that the nigger told you, Sykes Wimple?
40430What was the condition of the bridge when you reached it, Knox?
40430What were they?
40430What were you doing up here, then?
40430What would you call it? 40430 What you been doin'', Lank Rablan?"

40430What''s gwine on at that fire, Minky?
40430What''s that?

40430Why did n''t you do the shootin''when you had the chance, little coon?
40430Why did n''t you follow them up?
40430Why do n''t you speak out, Deck, and tell me what you are thinking about?
40430Why do you call me your friend?
40430Will you pay the bill I have brought to you?
40430Wo n''t you take a seat on this old bench, and let us talk it over?
40430Yes, Mars''r; but if you uns is soldiers, which side was you on?
40430You did n''t mean that what you said was true?
40430You did n''t mean that, did you?
40430Your orderly?
40430282"WHAT ARE YOU UNS DOING HERE?"
40430Ai n''t that so, Artie?
40430Any news from there?"
40430Are the men who came to the mansion in uniform, Cato?"
40430Are you all ready to march with your company?"
40430But how come you over here, Deck?"
40430But how do you know that they are waiting for the other gang, Captain?"
40430But what do you want?
40430But what is the point in regard to the snoring, Major Lyon?"
40430But where are the Texans in front of us?
40430But where are you going?"
40430But where was Deck?
40430CHAPTER XXXV SURROUNDED AND TOTALLY DEFEATED"What does all this mean, Withers?"
40430Can the enemy see what he is doing, Colonel?"
40430Could you see it from behind the knoll?"
40430Did n''t I ask you point- blank what you would do?"
40430Did n''t I see Sandy and Orly Lyon by that house?"
40430Do n''t you see it?"
40430Do you go to Plain Hill, Colonel?"
40430Do you happen to know?"
40430Do you mean to take six on us with only three?"
40430Do you think you can find him?"
40430Elbroon?"
40430Had any re- enforcement been sent to the Texan cavalry?
40430Have you seen any of the enemy up this way?"
40430Have your six men returned?"
40430How did it happen that they had not met, and a fight had not ensued?
40430How large was the detachment you fought, Redway?"
40430How long will it take you to reach the spot on the hill where the second company is posted?"
40430How many men do you require for this service?"
40430I s''pose you hain''t seen nothin''o''him, nuther?"
40430If you hain''t seen Tom Lobkill, did you come across Lank Rablan in your travels on the road?"
40430Is Captain Stinger still of the same mind?"
40430Is he in a bad way?"
40430Is that your idea, Deck?"
40430Is the distance about three miles?"
40430Is this thing loaded with ball?"
40430LEE AND SHEPARD PUBLISHERS BOSTON[ Illustration:"Be you uns soldiers, mass''r?"]
40430Lyon?"
40430Major Lyon''s brother?"
40430May I ask whom I have the honor to address?"
40430Mr. Elbroon, will you attend to this matter?"
40430Now, the question is, What were they sent for?"
40430Was Major Lyon awake?
40430Was it possible that Belthorpe had returned to the camp?
40430We heard the company cheering you; what mighty deed have you done now?"
40430What do you call it, Deck?"
40430What do you mean by that?"
40430What do you suppose the presence of those two fellows here means?"
40430What have you to say, Layder?"
40430What was our loss?"
40430What you runnin''off fur?"
40430What''s the reason we uns ai n''t not all dead, little''possum?"
40430Where are the enemy?"
40430Where are we, Jube?"
40430Where is he?"
40430Where is the fellow you captured?
40430Who brought Major Vinegold to the ground?
40430Who is he?"
40430Who sent you here to interfere with my business?"
40430Who served Lieutenant Makepeace in the same way?
40430Why not compromise on your idea; send half our force across the cornfield, and leave the other half to take care of this road?
40430Will you take your place in the line?
40430Wo n''t you just show me how to work it?"
40430You do n''t mean to turn traitor to your father and the cause, Orly?"
40430You have fought a severe fight, Captain; in what condition are your men?"
40430exclaimed the major,"And what became of them?"
40525Adheres?
40525And have you proved it otherwise?
40525And how does Kathie bear it?
40525And what puzzles you?
40525And what troubles you?
40525And why does not Mrs. Wilder interfere, or is she on the patrician side?
40525And you will forgive that-- revenge? 40525 And you would like to have her come?"
40525And you would not have done this? 40525 Are you asked to give up always?"
40525Are you going to Belle Hadden''s party?
40525Are you going to keep Kathie all the afternoon?
40525Are you sorry that you did it?
40525Are you sure you''ve been here all the time? 40525 Are you well?
40525Aunt Ruth,she said, in a little perplexity,"why is it that a person is not always willing to try to do right first of all?
40525Belle,she began, sharply,"how could you have committed such a blunder as to omit that pretty little Miss Alston from your party- list?
40525But O, did n''t you miss Rob?
40525But O, is n''t it lonely?
40525But he wo n''t go,she sobbed;"do you think he will?
40525But how can you tell?
40525But how did you come to visit the Strongs?
40525But how to come?
40525But if I were drafted?
40525But if education should make Sarah discontented and unhappy?
40525But if you were a man and had a wife, as well as bairnies, three or four, or half a dozen, and were compelled to leave them to poverty?
40525But what are you doing over here? 40525 But what if-- she_ should_ be ashamed of her home, after all?
40525But what makes you-- what keeps you in such a heaven of content? 40525 But what_ is_ it?"
40525But, Kathie-- what has happened, little one?
40525Can I help you?
40525Can such blossoming bring forth good, wholesome fruit?
40525Child, are you one of God''s own-- Heaven- sent? 40525 Child,"he asked,"how did you stand fire last winter when you were so suddenly brought to the front?
40525Could n''t I?
40525DO you think we could go to Middleville to- day?
40525Did he?
40525Did it surprise you when you heard that you were drafted?
40525Did they live here then?
40525Did you have a nice visit?
40525Did you mean to enlist any way?
40525Do n''t you get dreadfully dull sometimes?
40525Do n''t you have a little too much in- doors and study?
40525Do n''t you like tableaux?
40525Do you love me so well, my child? 40525 Do you not find it easier than you did two years ago?"
40525Do you not?
40525Do you really wish me to?
40525Do you suppose it is really true?
40525Do you suppose there is anything in it?
40525Do you want to put the lichen up in your room?
40525Does not God leave a little to us? 40525 Girls, have n''t you asked Kathie Alston?"
40525Has he been in any scrapes yet, Miss Kathie?
40525Has n''t he? 40525 Have you brought her?"
40525Have you heard bad news?
40525Have you sold anything?
40525Here,--to Brookside?
40525Home- guard?
40525How can_ she_ help it?
40525How did you come to take it?
40525How do you do, Sarah?
40525How do you make them''ere things?
40525How is Miss Jessie to- night?
40525How much fur these caliker aperns?
40525I heard Sarah ask if she might write to you; what did you answer?
40525I wonder if there is n''t something better to this life than the clothes one wears?
40525I wonder if you will be homesick?
40525I wonder why it is, Kathie? 40525 In what respect?"
40525Injudicious, I suppose you mean? 40525 Is it about Uncle Robert?"
40525Is it discouraging to eat when you are hungry?
40525Is it true that there is a scarcity of substitutes?
40525Is it? 40525 Is n''t it dreadful?"
40525Is n''t it odd,Mr. Meredith said, in a lower tone, taking his wife''s hand,"that it was through Kathie we came to know each other?
40525Is n''t your uncle willing that you should have a chambermaid?
40525Is that_ all_ you''ve taken in?
40525Is this Middleville?
40525Is your brother anywhere about?
40525It is discouraging,--isn''t it, Aunt Ruth?
40525It is right to have the cultivation, the pretty houses, the beautiful furniture and pictures and-- dresses?
40525It is too bad,--isn''t it? 40525 It is very good of them,--isn''t it?"
40525It seems hard, does n''t it, just for one little thing? 40525 It was n''t merely your regard for your mother or Uncle Robert?"
40525Mamma, why did not we, when we were very poor, grow careless? 40525 Miss-- Kathie-- Alston?"
40525No?
40525Not particularly,--why?
40525Now, Sary Ann, where''s the picter you want?
40525Now, which is the back road, I wonder?
40525O mamma, why?
40525O, have n''t you heard?
40525Our other soldier--"Mr. Morrison-- O child, what tidings of him?
40525Pasted on?
40525Shall I read it aloud?
40525So you are not quite convinced that it is wisest to sow beside all waters?
40525So you really wo n''t do that little favor?
40525So you think it rather funny to be forced to do what you would not choose of your free- will?
40525Suppose we should drive out to see her on some Saturday? 40525 The being drafted as well?"
40525Then I suppose I ought to try and make some one happy?
40525Then he is not sorry that he re- enlisted?
40525Then you think I may?
40525Then you think I ought to volunteer?
40525There_ can not_ be any mistake?
40525To assist you in learning your lessons?
40525Uncle Robert, would it be rude to send Sarah a pretty blue hair- ribbon, and tell her a little about contrasting colors? 40525 Uncle Robert,"Kathie said, as they were riding homeward,"could a drafted man offer a substitute just the same?"
40525Uncle Robert,he began, presently,"do n''t you think it fair that I should follow out my own wishes_ sometimes_?
40525Uncle Robert,she said,"do you believe there is any hope that Mr. Morrison may still be alive?"
40525WELL, Kathie, was the visit a success?
40525Was Santa Claus good to you, Miss Kathie?
40525Was it really lost time?
40525Was it some more Christmas?
40525Was my letter all right?
40525Well, Miss Thoughtful, what is it now? 40525 Well, should you know me?"
40525Well?
40525What about the cowardice of the proceeding?
40525What did Ada say?
40525What did he do?
40525What has happened among you girls? 40525 What is it?"
40525What is it?
40525What is it?
40525What is that, Lottie?
40525What is the matter now? 40525 What is the matter?
40525What ought I to do, little one?
40525What perplexes you then, Kitty?
40525What should you do, Kathie Alston, if you had been intimate with her?
40525What then?
40525What will there be so jolly about it, Rob?
40525What will you do?
40525What will you give me for a letter with a grand seal as if it came from the very Commander- in- Chief or the President? 40525 What''s the price of this?"
40525What?
40525When there is no company? 40525 When will you go?"
40525Where does Mr. Jotham Strong live?
40525Where is he?
40525Where is your uncle?
40525Where shall we drive?
40525Where were you going gypsy fashion?
40525Where_ do_ people make a distinction? 40525 Whether it would be proper,--is that what you mean?"
40525Which is the back road?
40525Which way you goin''?
40525Which would give you the most satisfaction,--to know that you had made two or three people happy, or to enjoy some pleasure alone by yourself? 40525 Who is_ she_?"
40525Who of us has? 40525 Why did you do it at all then?"
40525Why did you not speak of it, Kathie?
40525Why not, to be sure?
40525Why, Miss Weston,he said, softly,"where''s your specs?
40525Why, what else could I do? 40525 Will you try?"
40525Would a thousand dollars be too much?
40525Would you like me to accompany you? 40525 Would you mind running out?
40525Would you take the buggy?
40525Yet when one means to try-- is trying-- will it never come easy?
40525You are going over to Mrs. Coleman''s,--are you not?
40525You are going to the Darrells''?
40525You believe, Miss Kathie, that what we do at home is just as good in God''s eyes as if we did it for a stranger? 40525 You did n''t ask him to do it?"
40525You find, then, that no one is quite exempt from the warfare?
40525You have heard the news, Kitty?
40525You still go to school?
40525Your side?
40525Ah, was it not true that God restored fourfold?
40525Ai n''t your feet half froze?"
40525And if he never came back--""But, Uncle Robert, do n''t you think it right for a man to be patriotic?"
40525And was Sarah having a bright Christmas?
40525And was there not something grander and finer in this last act of heroism than many people were capable of?
40525And why is n''t your hair done up in queer little puffs?"
40525And why would n''t she be just as good and just as much of a lady if she did take it?
40525Any new gift for Sarah?"
40525Are the ponies in good order?"
40525Are they really rich,--the Alstons?"
40525Are you not satisfied to have me stay, or am I less of a hero in your eyes?"
40525Are you quite sure?"
40525Are you really going to have them?"
40525Been in the Dutch kitchen?"
40525But O, will he never get well?
40525But she said, rather gayly,"In what respect?"
40525Can you crochet?"
40525Did n''t that make her blood a little blue?
40525Did you finish your shopping?"
40525Did you make the frames?"
40525Do n''t you keep servants?
40525Do n''t you s''pose I could put''em up?
40525Do n''t you suppose he is just aching to be at home?"
40525Do n''t you suppose you shall ever go to Saratoga?"
40525Do they think Mr. Meredith will-- never get well?"
40525Do you believe that your God_ could_ love and pity me a little?"
40525Do you ever go chestnutting?"
40525Do you go to school there?
40525Do you know Indian pipe?"
40525Do you know how to make''em?"
40525Do you like her?"
40525Do you think He will accept me, Kathie?"
40525Does not your teacher correct you?"
40525Does-- Miss Jessie know?"
40525Had she been challenged at the outpost and found without a countersign?
40525Has she offended you?
40525Have they found his body?"
40525Have you begun gardening yet, Kathie?
40525How can we spare him?"
40525How could she direct another?
40525How did you do it?"
40525How is your uncle?
40525How much duty did a man or a woman owe to these great life questions?
40525I thought it quite hard to be treated so unjustly at school, but what was it compared with giving up one''s life?"
40525I wonder if we do not sometimes forget the One who died eighteen hundred years ago?
40525I wonder what makes it?"
40525I''ll be sure to remember that,"Sarah answered, with great earnestness;"and what else?"
40525If he do it bravely, is it not a little of the good fruit?
40525If his friends should not have heard, will you please inform them?
40525If she could have chosen for him, like Charlie, she would have desired his return; but if every wife and every mother felt so about their soldiers?
40525Is it a natural gift or grace?"
40525Is it not unjust to ask me to give up always?"
40525Is it wrong for everybody to look as pretty as he or she can?"
40525Is it_ quite_ right?"
40525Is n''t it delightful to have this sofa?
40525Is n''t it hideously ugly?
40525Is n''t there something very unjust about girls,--some girls, I mean?"
40525Is that the uncle you wrote about in your letter?"
40525Is there a standing quarrel?"
40525It seemed that she knew so little herself, how then could she direct another?
40525Kathie, how_ can_ you bear everything so patiently?"
40525Kathie, will you run over to the Lodge and ask Mr. Morrison to drive me to the station by six?"
40525Need it occupy all one''s time and one''s desires?
40525Now she made sundry mysterious confidences, prefaced with,"Would you have believed it?"
40525Now what do you think we ought to give him?"
40525Now, mother, you wo n''t let Freddy meddle with them while I am gone,--will you?
40525Once in a while we can do larger things; but is n''t it the little deeds that require the most patience?
40525She hated to be considered mean or shabby, or, worst of all, deficient in taste; yet how much of it was right?
40525So you came near losing your dear uncle, my child?"
40525That Lottie should be vexed with her she did not so much wonder at, but why should the other girls shun her?
40525That looks rather unjust, does n''t it?"
40525The grace of God; but then how was one to get this grace?
40525Then he said,"Of what are you thinking, my darling?"
40525Then, looking into her eyes,"You have heard--""About Mr. Meredith?
40525There''s no one here, so why ca n''t you shut up shop?"
40525They like a rambling, restless life, and care little for danger, little for death; but is it an intelligent courage,--the highest and noblest kind?
40525Was Rob fighting the good fight?
40525Was death only an interruption to pleasure?
40525Was he growing more serious, clearer- eyed?
40525Was it God''s love and grace that brought human souls so near together and made them one great family?
40525Was it because Ada was more gracious than usual?
40525Was it because Kathie always had some good work in hand?
40525Was it selfish not to want to stay here?
40525Was n''t it sad?"
40525Was this the love of God,--the grace which was promised to well- doing?
40525Well, Sary Ann?
40525Were all the rest of the world to have their own way and pleasures, and he never?
40525What can we ever do to merit them?"
40525What correspondent have you in Washington, we would all like to know?"
40525What could Kathie say,--blame her brave comrade?
40525What could she do of her own self?
40525What good could he do?"
40525What had she done to these girls?
40525What if he should be homesick?
40525What is the inside of their house like?"
40525What is your opinion, Dora?"
40525What other mistakes were there?"
40525What was it that helped his mother, and Uncle Robert, and Kathie?
40525What was the man''s life?
40525What was there about this family that charmed so insensibly?
40525What was there to cry about?
40525What will Ada say?
40525What would Miss Jessie say?
40525What''s the price of that?"
40525What_ is_ it?"
40525What_ was_ Miss Weston doing in the Dutch kitchen all this while?
40525When he came back to her he said, softly,"Kathie, will you not come and keep her table for a little while?
40525Where do you find such beautiful specimens?"
40525Where is Middleville?"
40525Who_ is_ Kathie Alston, anyhow?
40525Whose could it be?
40525Why could n''t he remember?
40525Why could n''t the girls have stayed on the balcony and talked?
40525Why did n''t God make the wrong so that you could see it plainly?"
40525Why did n''t she put blue, by way of contrast?"
40525Why did n''t some one think of her?
40525Why had it been so hard a moment ago?
40525Why had it not been as easy to be good and pleasant to- night as some other times when mamma did not think a coveted indulgence necessary?
40525Why have n''t you asked her and Kathie Alston?"
40525Why should the Alstons be ashamed of it?
40525Why-- isn''t it delightful?"
40525Will it make her coarse and vulgar?"
40525Will you go?"
40525Wo n''t it be jolly?"
40525Would it answer?"
40525Would one really grand action make amends for all?"
40525Yet what could be left out?
40525Yet, if she lost her fortune, would they let her drop out of sight and out of mind?
40525You do n''t have to work,--do you?"
40525You do not think mamma would object?"
40525You remember Mrs. Duncan?
40525You remember the day he was so elated about the draft?"
40525You think it was not right for me to tell?"
40525_ Can_ you answer my question?
40525a lady like you?
40525asked Uncle Robert,"or is it a secret?"
40525exclaimed Kathie, with a cry,"is there any news?
40525exclaimed Uncle Robert;"are you ready?"
40525the latter exclaimed, fretfully,"are n''t you half tired to death, Kathie Alston?
40525with a quick cry,"did you read this?"
29300''Is Sparta dead in your veins?''
29300A general would look pretty accepting the services of a company he could n''t command, would n''t he, now?
29300A gentleman to see me?
29300A whole settlement afraid of one boy?
29300A-- a--_what?_vociferated the general, now thoroughly aroused.
29300After we have been sworn into the service of the State?
29300Ai nt we walking over''em roughshod though, and did n''t I say all the while that we were bound to do it? 29300 All right in there?"
29300An expedition of his own?
29300And I suppose you will stay also, wo n''t you?
29300And because they ca n''t use the niggers do they say that we- uns musn''t use''em nuther?
29300And did Drummond send off that telegram when he knew there was n''t a word of truth in it?
29300And did you believe any such nonsense?
29300And do they say that we- uns must n''t do it?
29300And do you intend to take advantage of that provision of the Act?
29300And have n''t I a right to do as I please?
29300And he will be hung, I suppose?
29300And how did he repay my kindness?
29300And if we are, will you give up the doctrine of State Rights?
29300And it will be fought on Southern soil?
29300And lose the benefit of his knowledge?
29300And was it there he stole the horse?
29300And was n''t it the North that did the most toward whipping England?
29300And what are we- uns going to do about it?
29300And what did he have to say to that Yankee about me?
29300And what does the Emergency man do when his services are not needed?
29300And what shall Tom and I do in the morning?
29300And who is this friend of yours?
29300And why have n''t I as good a right as anybody, I should be pleased to know?
29300And you came here expecting to find these two boys?
29300And you''ll not be ordered out of your State?
29300Anybody with, him?
29300Are they guerrillas?
29300Are they looking for your husband?
29300Are you Confederate?
29300Are you armed?
29300Are you ever going to come to attention so that I can get through with my business and go back where I belong?
29300Are you from Tennessee?
29300Are you going to back out?
29300Are you satisfied now that these are not the Union boys they pretended to be?
29300Are you willing to give up whipped and permit a lot of Regicides and Roundheads to put their feet on your necks?
29300But are you a partisan and is Dick Graham one, also?
29300But do n''t he look a trifle as that thief might look if his duds was changed and his whiskers took off?
29300But even if we had decided to leave the State in a body, is there any law to prevent it? 29300 But how does it come that you know so much more about him than I do?
29300But how in the world do you suppose they found out that we were here?
29300But suppose the Union men find it out and pop him over from the nearest canebrake?
29300But what are we to do from this time on?
29300But what good will that do me when I am dead and gone? 29300 But what shall we do with the horse?"
29300But what shall we do?
29300But what was the reason Siegel was sent to Springfield?
29300But what''s the use of enlisting if I am going to get whipped? 29300 Can a man honestly hold opinions that make him a traitor to his State?
29300Can we at the front be whipped while our friends at home keep up such heart as that?
29300Can we go in and get supper, or will it be safer for you to bring it out to us?
29300Captain,said he,"what sort of an organization is this any way-- a mob or a military company?"
29300Could n''t you postpone that part of the programme until_ I_ have had a bite to eat, or do you think there''s nobody hungry but yourselves?
29300Dick Graham, how dare you?
29300Did Merrick''s nigger tell you that?
29300Did Randolph start that ridiculous story about the mutiny?
29300Did anybody ever hear of such luck?
29300Did he tell the Governor in his second dispatch that I was getting ready to leave the State, and that he had better be on the lookout to stop me?
29300Did n''t I tell you that that company of Rangers would never amount to a row of pins?
29300Did n''t he say he would come back as soon as he could?
29300Did n''t you once assure your cousin Marcy that all the blacks in the South would go with their masters against the abolitionists?
29300Did they pass along the road?
29300Did you hear those gentlemen asking for you a while ago?
29300Did you really know that we were in the house?
29300Did you simply speak to him, or did you go in where he was?
29300Did you stop at Cairo on your way up?
29300Do n''t you believe what the_ Able''s_ captain said about me?
29300Do n''t you know any better than to talk to me in that style?
29300Do n''t you know that there have been rioting and bloodshed in St. Louis, and that the Dutchmen have got control of the city?
29300Do n''t you know what will be done with you if you are caught?
29300Do n''t you know what would be done to_ you_ if you were caught with that roan colt in your possession? 29300 Do n''t you recognize his voice?"
29300Do n''t you think this is a cold- blooded, heartless way to treat a boy who has never done you any harm?
29300Do you believe Merrick''s darkey can be depended on?
29300Do you imagine that I have come up here just to have the fun of going back on my principles?
29300Do you know anything about Merrick''s boy? 29300 Do you know the country?"
29300Do you know this boy who has been acting as our guide?
29300Do you mean that the State has seceded?
29300Do you recognize the voice?
29300Do you say the prisoner has lit out?
29300Do you still think we are going to be whipped?
29300Do you think there will be any fighting?
29300Do you think you ever saw me before?
29300Do you?
29300Do you?
29300Do your neighbors know that you are a Union man?
29300Does Jeff or anybody else suppose for a moment that I would have come back to this camp if I had been in Percival''s place?
29300Does anybody here know what course we_ do_ want to pursue? 29300 Does he belong to your company?"
29300Does he stand up for State Rights as strongly as he used?
29300Does that mean that you would have hung him?
29300Eh? 29300 Father,"said he, speaking rapidly and panting as if he had been running instead of riding,"who is that in the carriage with the Governor?
29300Friend of yours?
29300Ger-- which?
29300Has he told you my story?
29300Has that man Swanson been through here? 29300 Have n''t I seen you before?"
29300Have n''t you heard him say that he do n''t want it and wo n''t take it?
29300Have they seen any service at all?
29300Have we had a fight?
29300Have you Emergency men had much to do yet?
29300Have you a son about the same age?
29300Have you any word to leave for him?
29300Have you got your ballots ready for first lieutenant?
29300Have you got your votes ready for orderly sergeant?
29300Have you heard anything since you have been in town?
29300He is too well known; and how do I know but that somebody will bounce me for a horse- thief?
29300He means to be revenged on me for voting as I did, does n''t he?
29300He? 29300 How about Cape Girardeau?"
29300How about our uniforms?
29300How are you going to help yourself?
29300How are you going to work it to reach Price''s army?
29300How can you bring yourself to utter such treasonable language in your son''s hearing? 29300 How did he think he would go to work to accomplish it?"
29300How did the authorities learn that the Rangers had any notion of going up the river?
29300How do Thompson''s men happen to know that Percival is hiding down there in the swamp?
29300How do you know that?
29300How do you make that out?
29300How do you serve them in your part of the country?
29300How does it come that you are so prompt to recognize us if you never saw us before?
29300How in the world did you get through St. Louis without being put in jail, and where did you pick him up, captain?
29300How long has he been gone?
29300How many men have you? 29300 How much damage have you done which?"
29300How much do you want for the fodder I and my horse and that Yankee''s horse have eaten?
29300How much farther do you go with us, boy?
29300I am short a good horse by last night''s work, and suppose I shall have to take Percival''s to replace him, wo n''t I?
29300I command the company, do n''t I?
29300I hope to goodness the Yankees-- but after all it was my own fault, for did n''t I hand him that stick and give him the only revolver I had? 29300 I know it; but how are you going to teach your horses the movements unless you know them yourselves?
29300I should like to know what you mean by this foolishness?
29300I suppose I could arrange all that by letter or telegraph, could n''t I?
29300I suppose there are plenty of Union people between here and your settlement?
29300I suppose you are acting is a sort of advance agent for your company to see what arrangements you can make with General Price?
29300I suppose you think every man we have been talking to is a Jackson man, do n''t you?
29300I want some sort of a paper to show to our friends along the road, do n''t I?
29300I wonder if he thinks the Union men at Pilot Knob will rescue him when he is brought there?
29300I wonder what''s up? 29300 If I drop out of the ranks will you come too?"
29300If he is depending upon them, why did he run away from the settlement in the first place? 29300 If that is the case, did n''t he train up his son in the way he wanted him to go?
29300If they are not Secesh, how does it come that their friends recognize them so quickly? 29300 If you are on our side what are you doing here?"
29300If you had taken him a prisoner to Pilot Knob, what assurance have you that you would not have been bushwhacked on the way?
29300If you knew our company was to go up in smoke what did you join it for?
29300Is it a bargain?
29300Is n''t it rather unusual for a cavalry company to hold a business meeting on horseback?
29300Is that a fact?
29300Is that all you know about him? 29300 Is that place this side of Cairo?"
29300Is that the sort of partisan you are, Tom?
29300Is that what you take me for,exclaimed Rodney,--"a horse- thief and an abolitionist besides?
29300Is the man who heard me say that outside?
29300Is this the friend who helped you last night? 29300 It is Percival, sure enough, but what in the name of sense and Tom Walker is he doing here?"
29300It is his intention to have me arrested the minute I get into St. Louis, is it?
29300It''s that or go afoot, is n''t it?
29300Lyon is between us and St. Louis, but we manage to get our mail pretty regularly-- Heard about Bull Run? 29300 Making me ride a horse that has been advertised all through the country as stolen property is a good way to keep me out of trouble, is n''t it now?"
29300May I leave the ranks a minute?
29300No chance to get out, is there? 29300 Now that your prisoner is out of hearing, would you have any objection to telling me what he has been doing?"
29300Now what are you going to do with us?
29300Now what''s the use of your trying any of your jokes on me?
29300Now will you pass us out, and send some men to the stable with us to get our horses?
29300Now, Jeff, how could you have made such a mistake? 29300 Now, then, what brought you here?
29300Now, what is the use of your asking such a question as that?
29300Of awkward squads-- yes,"Then ca n''t you see that that is another reason why we need you in that berth? 29300 Oh, do you?"
29300Oh, that''s what you want, is it?
29300Oh; why did n''t you say so? 29300 On his own horse?"
29300On which side?
29300Or why does n''t he shoulder a musket and fall in with us?
29300Our company?
29300Shall I dismount the men, sir?
29300So I supposed; but you ca n''t depend upon your horse to tell you whether you are talking to a Yankee sympathizer or an honest Confederate, can you? 29300 So you are going to stick to your uniform, are you?
29300Suppose I have; what then? 29300 Suspected, is he?"
29300That was at Cedar Bluff landing, was it?
29300The boys seem to understand it, and what more do you want?
29300The dogs wo n''t bother me, will they?
29300The general is a Confederate officer, and if we let him muster us in, he will make Confederate soldiers of us, wo n''t he?
29300Then I suppose you do n''t want me to go into the army?
29300Then he would n''t assume control of the company?
29300Then how does it come that I am colloguing with a Yankee horse- thief?
29300Then why could n''t you come to the door and say so like a man, instead of sneaking up like a cowardly Secession bushwhacker?
29300Then you believe that might makes right, do you?
29300Wal, ye got him, did n''t ye?
29300Was n''t it the South that did the most toward whipping Mexico?
29300Was n''t it to repel the_ invasion_ of McCulloch, who was coming from Arkansas with eight hundred bandits he called Texan Rangers? 29300 Was n''t the election satisfactory?
29300Was that a Secession camp or not?
29300Was there anything in it about me?
29300We did lick''em sure enough, did n''t we?
29300We ought to make an early start, and do you think it would be safe for us to keep together?
29300We''ll get by Cairo all right, wo n''t we?
29300Well, I can learn, ca n''t I?
29300Well, could you give me a bill of sale of him?
29300Well, how do you know but that man Swanson saw him when he went in?
29300Well, how long do you think I shall have to wear this uniform?
29300Well, if another man stole the horse why do you lay it on to Percival?
29300Well, if that is the case, whom have we got here?
29300Well, then, if it is a military company, I suppose you intend to be governed by military rules, do you not?
29300Well, what in the name of sense do you call the orderly?
29300What business would they have to put us in arrest?
29300What could he have to say about me? 29300 What did he say?"
29300What did you say your names might be?
29300What do you boys say to that?
29300What do you mean by that? 29300 What do you mean by that?"
29300What do you suppose he will do at home? 29300 What do you think of the prospect, boys?"
29300What do you think there is back of it?
29300What else could I do?
29300What else could you expect in a community like this where every man has turned against his best friend?
29300What have they done?
29300What in the world is the matter, and why are you likely to get yourself into trouble by coming here?
29300What kind of a fellow are you, anyhow?
29300What made them abolitionists come down here all of a sudden to take our niggers away from us?
29300What makes you say that?
29300What other thing has Drummond done that''s mean?
29300What ought he to have said?
29300What sort of an animal is he and where is he?
29300What sort of evidence?
29300What time is it?
29300What was in the dispatch?
29300What will our brave people be doing while the hated Yankees are sweeping over us? 29300 What would you do, if everything you had in the world was right here and you could n''t sell it and get out?"
29300What''s down there?
29300What''s the good of helping a fellow one hour if you are going to shoot him the next?
29300What''s the matter?
29300What''s the next thing on the programme?
29300What''s the reason I have n''t?
29300What''s the reason our Governor ca n''t swear the Rangers in as well as the Governor of Missouri can swear his troops in? 29300 What''s the reason they could n''t use the niggers up there?"
29300What''s the reason we wo n''t? 29300 What''s up?"
29300When I do n''t own a dollar''s worth of interest in him?
29300When shall I have the pleasure of shaking Dick Graham by the hand?
29300Where are you going and what business have you got up here in my State, you red- hot rebel?
29300Where be them slaves now?
29300Where in the world did you get it?
29300Where is he now?
29300Where is he? 29300 Where is the enemy?"
29300Where is this company going to serve?
29300Where was that?
29300Where will you go?
29300Where would you be at this moment if I had n''t been in Jeff''s cabin last night?
29300Where''ll I get them?
29300Where''s Price?
29300Where''s your regiment?
29300Which is the traitor?
29300Which one is Union then, if that suits you better?
29300While you are waiting for that steamer to make up her mind if she wants any wood or not, will you tell me where I can find my horse? 29300 While you were up to camp to- day did any of the boys tell you that I am a candidate for second lieutenant of the company?"
29300Who are you any way, if it is a fair question, and where are you going?
29300Who are you, and what are you doing there?
29300Who are you, and what do you want of us?
29300Who cares if he does?
29300Who is he? 29300 Who is that old party in the Governor''s carriage?"
29300Who shall I say called?
29300Who''s out there?
29300Who''s your authority for saying that they have n''t done anything?
29300Who? 29300 Why did n''t he stay in his own part of the State where he belonged?"
29300Why did n''t the governor swear us in himself instead of telling us that we must wait for General Lacey to do it? 29300 Why do n''t you speak it right out?
29300Why do you talk so when Rodney is on the eve of enlisting? 29300 Why is it necessary for them to hide out?"
29300Why not? 29300 Why, did n''t the cap''n of the_ Mollie Able_ tell Jeff that you was one of Price''s men?
29300Why, the Confederates would n''t fight for the Union boys, would they?
29300Will he be quite safe there?
29300Will one blanket be enough to keep you warm?
29300Will you go with me and join Price?
29300With delight?
29300You could n''t be ordered out of the State, could you?
29300You did n''t know trail arms from right- shoulder shift when you first joined the academy, did you? 29300 You have n''t anything against them, have you, colonel?"
29300You see we have some men with us who are not in uniform, do you not?
29300You want to get through, do n''t you?
29300You were, eh? 29300 You?"
29300Your decision was made on the spur of the moment, was n''t it?
29300Your father did n''t give us credit for much sense, did he?
29300All he said was:"Does Tom know it?"
29300And are you all partisans?"
29300Any up this way?"
29300Are you as good a rebel as you used to be?"
29300But did he live up to the principles for which he was fighting?
29300But how did you fall in with your old schoolmate, Barton?
29300But what was that story he had heard from beginning to end, and who was it that was waiting for him?
29300But why had he taken Rodney''s horse instead of his own?
29300But, father, do you think there is going to be a war?"
29300By gracious?
29300By the way, did n''t I hear a body of men riding along the road going west, a short time since?"
29300By the way, where is Jack?"
29300Ca n''t you give me a trade for him?"
29300Ca n''t you see that they do n''t at all resemble each other?"
29300Can you give us some supper?
29300Can you show me the way out?
29300Can you think of any answers you could give that would satisfy him?
29300Captain, who is going to commission you?"
29300Could n''t you make some excuse to keep him here till morning?"
29300Did n''t I say that boy would bear watching?
29300Did n''t you speak of Dick Graham as a sergeant?"
29300Did you go it blind when you addressed him as a Union man?"
29300Did you make a trade with Merrick, or with some of Hobson''s friends?"
29300Do n''t I tell you that he''s too mean for any use?
29300Do n''t it your''n?"
29300Do n''t you know that the man who looks for a fight generally gets more than he wants?
29300Do n''t you remember our President said the fighting must all be done on Northern soil?"
29300Do you intend to remain right here about home?"
29300Do you know Justus Percival?"
29300Do you see this gray suit?
29300Do you suppose I am such a fool as to allow myself to be set up and bowled over by Rodney Gray?"
29300Do you suppose I can get into your company?"
29300Do you suppose he has been stealing anything?
29300Do you want our guns, lieutenant?"
29300Finally he said:"Are the State Guards the same as the Home Guards?"
29300Got a revolver to spare, Jeff?"
29300Had they joined Lyon''s army, and would he and Dick have to meet them on the field of battle?
29300Has he any right to ride rough- shod through our State, when some of our own citizens are not permitted to stick their heads out of doors?"
29300Have another piece of the toast?"
29300Have n''t you done your duty, or would n''t your officers push you?"
29300Have you a copy of your muster- roll handy?"
29300Have you a revolver you would be willing to sell at your own price?"
29300Have you been corresponding with him?"
29300Have you been out to look at that friend of ours in the corn- crib?"
29300Have you disbanded?"
29300Have you got enough of the service?"
29300Have you heard from any of the Harrington boys since we left school?
29300He got off his horse somehow and managed to inquire:"What did he tell you about me that made you know me as quick as you saw me?"
29300He''s a nobby soldier, ai nt he?"
29300How could you have jined him if you have n''t been where he was?"
29300How did he know that young Randolph was the only enemy he had in Mooreville?
29300How do you know but that they have ambushed scores of Confederates?"
29300How he is going to get through I do n''t know, for if he meets an armed man on the way how is he going to tell whether he is Union or Confederate?"
29300How is it, Merrick?"
29300How many of them was there?
29300How much damage have I done your commissary department since I have been here?"
29300How much?"
29300How was that recommendation received?
29300How would you get through the lines without a pass?"
29300I suppose that St. Louis cotton- factor was on the watch?"
29300I suppose you are Price''s men?"
29300I''ll go any time you say the word; but why do you persist in speaking of our side as''rebels''?
29300If you think the darkies are loyal to their masters, what are you afraid of?
29300Is he Union or Secesh?"
29300Is it General Lacey?"
29300Is there anything we can do for you that you think of?"
29300It was time he was looking for a place to stay all night, but what should he say to the farmer to whom he applied for supper and lodging?
29300It''s a fraud and a cheat and a swindle and a-- and a-- what are you about?"
29300It''s a one- sided trade I admit, the roan is worth two of mine, but see the risk I shall run?"
29300Louis?"
29300Louis?"
29300Me?
29300Merrick?"
29300Nels, was there anything in or around the corn- crib to show how he got out?"
29300Now do you think Tom and I can ride together?"
29300Now what''s to be done?"
29300Now where shall I go to find my regiment?
29300Now, Jeff, what about sleeping arrangements?
29300Now, did n''t you know, when you ran off with my horse, leaving yours for me to ride, that every man I met would take me for you?"
29300Now, then, what have you done?
29300Now, what I want to know of you is, are you going to take that darkey''s word in preference to mine?"
29300Or will we have to put a guard over him?"
29300Presently the same muffled voice inquired:"Is Mr. Merrick to home?"
29300Raising himself on his elbow he said, drowsily:"That you, Harvey?
29300See how they hung on to that fort in Charleston Harbor until our gallant fellows made them give it up?
29300See?
29300See?
29300See?
29300See?
29300See?"
29300Seen Jeff Thompson''s last proclamation?
29300Shall I put your name down?"
29300So Gray is going to Missouri, is he?
29300Suppose I had said or done something to arouse the suspicions of the men we have just left; where would we be now?"
29300That is all right, is n''t it?"
29300The first question that was asked,"Have you seen or heard anything more of Thompson''s men?"
29300The house had been quietly surrounded, but by whom?
29300There were no tears in her eyes-- she was past that now-- but did n''t she suffer?
29300They would be forced into the army against their will, would n''t they and would n''t that make them conscripts?
29300This State is a part of the Confederacy; and if the Confederacy calls upon Louisiana for troops then what?"
29300This is a Southern State, is n''t it?"
29300Truman?"
29300Was it Percival?"
29300Was n''t Jackson''s proposition and Price''s, that the State should remain neutral, a fair one?"
29300Was n''t that a victory though?
29300Was the officer telling the truth or cooking up a story for reasons of his own?
29300Was this the man who had promised on two different occasions that he would lend Rodney a helping hand if the opportunity was ever presented?
29300Were you really in earnest when you said you intended to start oft tomorrow?"
29300What are you afraid of?"
29300What could be more alluring to a hot- head like Rodney Gray than the wild, free, and glorious life which the simple word"partisan"conjured up?
29300What did I tell you, Mr. Truman?
29300What did they want to do then?
29300What did we secede for if it was n''t to prove the doctrine of State Rights?
29300What do you say, boys?"
29300What do you say?
29300What do you see, Rodney?"
29300What do you think of that?"
29300What do you think of your horse?
29300What have you decided to do?"
29300What if I should fall in with a party strong enough to search me?
29300What makes you ask the question?"
29300What would the Governor think?"
29300What''s his name?"
29300What''s the use of having Confederate soldiers if they are not to obey the orders of the Confederate government?
29300When the two boys were left alone with the captain the latter inquired:"How old are you?"
29300When we were at school, captain--""Where''s the regiment?"
29300Where are our State Rights now, I should like to know?"
29300Where is your cousin Marcy?"
29300Where would we get the men to fight our battles if everybody thought as mother does?"
29300Where''s his company?"
29300Who commands that company of cavalry?"
29300Who ever heard of such impudence?"
29300Who''s afraid of such soldiers?"
29300Who?"
29300Why did n''t he stay in his own State and follow the fortunes of the Mooreville Rangers, as he had promised to do?
29300Why did n''t they tell us all this in the first place, so that we might know what there was before us?
29300Why do n''t you''light?"
29300Why not be satisfied with what you have already done?
29300Why should n''t I?
29300Will that make you eighteen?"
29300Will you be up?"
29300Will you drill a volunteer squad here every forenoon?"
29300Will you take in my name?"
29300Would he have to stand by and see their buildings go up in smoke?
29300Would n''t you like to have your company escort him there?"
29300You are a partisan, are you?
29300You could n''t have expected to meet him at the landing?"
29300You do n''t imagine that the Rangers are the only ones who will go into the service from this place, do you?
29300You do n''t reckon there''s any chance for a mistake, do you?"
29300You must use them--""Must I ask favors of a Union man and then turn about and fight him?"
29300You say you will not obey the orders of the Richmond government?"
29300You surely do not wish to discourage him?"
29300You would n''t expect one of them to make himself known to as hot a Confederate as you are known to be, would you?
29300You''ll never get through the lines without a pass, and how are you going to get it?
29300You''re a Jackson man, I suppose?"
29300what are we coming to?
22960Am dat so, massa? 22960 Am you Cunnel J----''s man?"
22960And der yer tink dat de rest ob de Souf will jine wid Souf Car''lina, if she go at it fust?
22960And do_ you_ remain on the plantation?
22960And suppose he found a boat here,I suggested,"and made the shore some ways down?"
22960And what are you thinking about?
22960And what does it cost you to support each hand?
22960And what have_ you_ to say about South Carolina? 22960 And who in h-- ll ar you?"
22960Any one hurt?
22960Are all the people dead?
22960Are there many of these poor whites around Georgetown?
22960Are you mad?
22960Because he was brutal to Sam, should you be brutal to him? 22960 But I had supposed the black was better fitted by nature for hard labor, in a hot climate, than the white?"
22960But are not Captain B---''s negroes contented?
22960But have your other aged slaves the same comforts that Aunt Lucy has?
22960But how can a man live there-- how get food?
22960But how did you expect to get on? 22960 But how_ could_ you hear?
22960But if bound for the Station, why should he wade through the creek here, ten miles out of his way? 22960 But is not the larger portion of the turpentine crop consumed at the North?"
22960But where will you and your daughters sleep? 22960 But who does your work?
22960But why are you for the Union, when your neighbors go the other way?
22960But would n''t you?
22960But, my good friend, where would the British navy be all this while?
22960But,I inquired,"_ have_ you two millions without counting your blacks; and are_ they_ not as likely to fight on the wrong as on the right side?"
22960By tale?
22960Can that be true? 22960 Can you swim, massa?"
22960Careful of what?
22960Dead? 22960 Dead?"
22960Der ye tink Massa Davy wud broke his word, sar?
22960Der yer tink, den, massa, dat dey''ll git to fightin''at Charl''son?
22960Did he dare to do that? 22960 Did n''t he tell the gentleman that you were a particular friend of mine, and had met me by appointment at Captain B----''s?"
22960Did n''t you see, massa, how yaller all dem wimmin war? 22960 Did ye?
22960Did you get no trace of her in the morning?
22960Did you hear what we said?
22960Did you let it down on purpose?
22960Do most of them take to the swamps?
22960Do n''t you know massa, my boy?
22960Do you find that in the Bible, Lazarus?
22960Do you say that, boys;said the Colonel, turning to the other negroes;"shall he have fifty lashes?"
22960Do you think Scip will bring him back?
22960Do you think he is dying, Rosy?
22960Do you think the white could labor as well as the black, on the rice and cotton- fields?
22960Do your seven field hands produce enough''dip''to keep your still a running?
22960Does Sam''s wife''smile''on the overseer now?
22960Does the Colonel teach that to his negroes?
22960Du with''em? 22960 From what part of the South?"
22960Haint I tole you,he continued,"dat in de big city ob New York dar''m more folks dan in all Car''lina?
22960Haint she wanted''mong de nusses, massa?
22960Hallo, Jim,I said;"have you got back?"
22960Have Ablisherners thar, do n''t ye? 22960 Have you always lived with him?"
22960Have you any children?
22960Have you been here long?
22960Have you read any others?
22960Hello, Junius, what in creation are you doing there?
22960How can Scip find him?
22960How could I help it? 22960 How d''ye do, Scip_io?_"said Jim, extending his hand to him.
22960How d''ye do?
22960How dare you disobey me? 22960 How did you catch them?"
22960How did you know that, madam?
22960How do you do? 22960 How far is it to the nearest run?"
22960How is it that you have lived in Georgetown five years, and have not known him?
22960How is the sick boy, Colonel?
22960How many have you, madam?
22960How many negroes has he?
22960How so?
22960How was it? 22960 How would you do it-- by preaching abolition where even the niggers would mob you?
22960I hard you say to massa, dat ef dey goes to war,''twill free all de niggers-- der you raily b''lieve dat, sar?
22960I knows dat, Cunnel, but see dar,replied Jim, holding the paper out to his master,"do n''t dat say he''m dar?
22960I thought the blacks were said to be entirely contented?
22960I thought the negroes were the serfs in your feudal system?
22960I''ll bet on it, Tommy; but he wo nt fool you and me, will he, my boy?
22960If that is so we''d better stay, Scip; do n''t you think so?
22960Is Andy Jones har?
22960Is Jake much hurt?
22960Is he severe with them?
22960Is he? 22960 Is not the support of that class a heavy tax upon you?"
22960Is that so?
22960Is that you, Aunty?
22960Is there any one here to help?
22960Is thet all ye knows?
22960Is this woman your wife?
22960Is your wife a South Carolina women?
22960Is your wife, up there, married again?
22960Is''nt that Moye?
22960Is_ she_ here?
22960Jake,he said,"where are your shoes?"
22960Kill harself''case har man war shot by thet han''som overseer uv your''n?
22960Lor bress me, Massa K----, am dat you?
22960Massa K----,said the latter, getting down and coming to me:"Whar am dey?"
22960Mr. K----, will you stand by and see me handcuffed by a miserable slave?
22960Never mind what_ you_ said,interrupted the Colonel, a little impatiently, but showing no displeasure;"what did_ she_ say?"
22960No it doant-- do it, Aggy?
22960No, nothing, Jim,replied his master;"but, stay-- hadn''t you better sleep in front of Moye''s door?"
22960Not there now? 22960 Now, Barnes,"I said, shaking off the gloomy feelings that had oppressed me:"come, I must see that wife of yours, and get a glimpse of how you live?"
22960Oh, never mind;said the Colonel, who had recovered his coolness;"but why are all these people here?"
22960Only massa and me, and de hoss, and we''m half dead wid de cold,replied Scip;"can we cum in out ob de rain?"
22960P''r''aps you haint heerd on the ab''lsh''ners, Andy?
22960Promised the Colonel before you went?
22960Quar, that; yer an Ablisherner, arnt ye?
22960Quite well, thank you, Miles,said the Colonel, with a certain patronizing air,"have you seen my man, Moye?"
22960Rail- splitter? 22960 Rosin is put to very many uses?"
22960Safe? 22960 Sam?
22960Scip, did you know Jim before?
22960Sha n''t I get well? 22960 Sort o''likely gal, thet, warn''t she?"
22960Sort o''smart, Massa Davy; sort o''smart; how is ye?
22960Suffer from the Yankees? 22960 Suppose the Yankees object to your setting up by yourselves, and put your ports under lock and key?"
22960Tell me, Scipio,I resumed after a while,"how it is you can repeat that passage from Isaiah so well?"
22960Tell me, my little man,I said:"who taught you all these things?"
22960That''s the use of having a tongue, eh?
22960The Colonel, then, has befriended you at some time?
22960The business of nigger- catching, then, is brisk, just now?
22960Then Sam got away again?
22960Then free- schools and general education would destroy slavery?
22960Then how do you get your butter?
22960Then the other negroes know where the runaways are; do n''t they sometimes betray them?
22960Then why are not_ you_ a Union man?
22960Then why do you Carolinians make such an outcry about the violation of the Fugitive Slave Law?
22960Then why do you keep them about you?
22960Then why was he flogged? 22960 Then you have to support this man and his family?"
22960Then you think the blacks would work better if free?
22960Then_ why_ did you do it?
22960These_ are_ unhappy times, truly,said my friend;"has any thing new occurred?"
22960Thet arn''t all-- what''s th''rest?
22960Very well, Ned; how are you?
22960Very well,I replied, returning his grasp with equal warmth,"how are you?"
22960Wal, Cunnul, how dy''ge?
22960Well, I suppose not much; and you tell all you hear to the other negroes?
22960Well, Jim, what is it?
22960Well, Sandy, how is''Lady?''
22960Well, another time you mind what_ I_ say-- do you hear?
22960Well, suppose you do; what then?
22960Well, what then?
22960Well,said the Colonel,"what do you think of our bacon''as it runs?''"
22960Whar_ did_ you cum from? 22960 What Sam is it?"
22960What boys? 22960 What brought you here, you d----d insolent hound?"
22960What d''ye say? 22960 What der_ ye_ knows''bout th''ab''lisheners?
22960What did she say?
22960What do they go agin the South for?
22960What do you suffer from the Yankees?
22960What do you tell them such things for?
22960What does it mean-- that fresh bullet wound, and the marks of a recent whipping?
22960What does the labor of a_ full_ hand yield?
22960What du the''du?
22960What ef he am crazy? 22960 What effect will secession have on your business?"
22960What funeral?
22960What had Sam done?
22960What is it, Jim?
22960What is the story about, Sam?
22960What is the usual proportion of sick and infirm on your plantation?
22960What is your value now?
22960What look, massa? 22960 What proportion of your slaves are able- bodied hands?"
22960What the d-- l is the matter?
22960What will he pay you?
22960What will you do?
22960What words do you mean? 22960 What would you do with them, if they were_ really_ free?"
22960What''s that? 22960 What''s the matter?"
22960What''s yer name?
22960What, both gone and left you ladies here alone?
22960What-- what the d----l is the matter?
22960What_ is_ the whole story?
22960Where are you hauling your turpentine?
22960Where did you catch him?
22960Where do you think Sam is?
22960Where in creation have you been, my dear fellow?
22960Where is Jake?
22960Where is Moye?
22960Where is the swamp?
22960Where''s Andy Jones?
22960Where?
22960Which route do you think he has taken?
22960Which way do you think Moye has gone?
22960Who ar ye?
22960Who made ye?
22960Who told me so?
22960Who told you that?
22960Who''s looking after Sam?
22960Who_ is_ Madam P----?
22960Whose negroes are those, Colonel?
22960Why afraid you''ll runaway? 22960 Why are you discontented?
22960Why better than twenty of_ his_ niggers?
22960Why did Sam run away?
22960Why did he call you Scip_io_? 22960 Why did he?"
22960Why did n''t_ you_, tell him? 22960 Why do n''t they run?
22960Why do n''t you set them at work?
22960Why do n''t you take them yourself?
22960Why good at swimming?
22960Why hung him?
22960Why is that?
22960Why not do that?
22960Why not,he said,"strike at once for the end of his route?
22960Why should you stay here? 22960 Why should_ you_ interfere between them and him?
22960Why so, my dear fellow?
22960Why so, my friend? 22960 Why so?"
22960Why was he whipped?
22960Why wo nt you?
22960Why would he have known your name?
22960Why, are not these people happy? 22960 Why, have you heard any of them speak of him?"
22960Why, how much does he get?
22960Why, then, do you send such men as Seward, Sumner, Wilson, and Grow to Congress? 22960 Why?
22960Will de gemman please ride up to de piazza?
22960Will it not be necessary to agree among yourselves before you do that? 22960 Will not those folks tell what you did, and thus get you into trouble?"
22960Will the Yankees_ fight_, sir?
22960Will you let us come in out of de rain?
22960Wo nt you ax Massa K---- to a cheer?
22960Wo nt you get into de carriage, massa?
22960Would n''t it be better to make them go to hear the old preacher; could n''t they learn something from him?
22960Would your mistress take a thousand for you?
22960Yas, yas, massa,replied the negro, springing nimbly forward, and taking the horses by the bridles,"an''rub''em down, massa?"
22960Yas, you fools, did n''t I tell you dat?
22960Ye do n''t have no niggers thar, does ye?
22960Ye like brandy, do n''t ye?
22960Yes; just the same enjoyment that aunty''s pigs are having; do n''t you hear_ them_ singing to the music? 22960 You are very good, sir,"I replied:"how did you hear of it?"
22960You could n''t have learned_ that_ yourself; did n''t your''massa''teach you?
22960You d----d nigger, do you dare to speak so to me?
22960You do n''t mean to say that cows are generally worked here?
22960You grew them?
22960You know what_ they_ are, Jim, do n''t you?
22960You say a man works better for being free; then you must think''twould be well to free the negroes?
22960You tole Scipio dat, sar, and what did_ he_ tell you?
22960You wo nt tell dat_ I_ tole you, massa?
22960_ All_ the children? 22960 _ We_, you say; you mean by that, the hundred and eighty thousand nabobs who own five- sixths of your slaves?
22960_ What_ time is coming, Scipio?
22960_ You_ heard me say that; how did you hear it?
22960''Taint so large as Charles''n, is''t?"
229602?"
22960A great ole feller thet, warn''t he?
22960After safely"walking the plank,"and making our way to the opposite bank, I resumed it by asking:"Why are the Colonel''s negroes so particularly bad?"
22960An''whot der ye''spoze she sed?
22960And what could our little State do in a conflict with nearly thirty millions?"
22960Are not their laborers overworked?
22960Are there not abuses in society at the North?
22960Are you sure?"
22960As I approached him he extended his hand with a pleasant"How are ye, stranger?"
22960As I was lighting it, he said:"Ye''ve got a good''oman, hev ye?"
22960As we rode along I said to the driver,"Scip, what did you think of our lodgings?"
22960At what time does the next train go up?"
22960Build a free- school at every cross- road, and teach the poor whites, and what would become of slavery?
22960But Sukey, whar''s th''young''uns?"
22960But are you sure the slut will die?"
22960But how shall I describe the pale, sweet beauty of the face of the drowned girl, as she lay there, her eyes closed, and her lips parted, as in prayer?
22960But in this are we worse than they?
22960But what am my life wuth?
22960But what have you heard?"
22960But_ why_ do you go for freeing the niggers?"
22960By the way,"continued my host, in a jocose way,"what did you think of the preaching?"
22960By- the- way,"he added,"did you not meet with some little obstruction at Conwayboro'', on your way up?"
22960By--, sir, ye ai nt an ab''lishener, is ye?"
22960Can Jim help you?"
22960Can Mr. Caleb Cushing or Charles O''Conor tell us why the Almighty invented a system which forces his creatures to break laws of His own making?
22960Can you expect me to tend you when you are sick, if you beat a dying man?
22960Can you get me a cup of tea?"
22960Come, Sandy, will you go in for the pile?"
22960D''ye see thet little nig thar?"
22960Der yer tink we would n''t fight to be free?"
22960Did he come back?"
22960Did n''t I tell you to give him a hundred?"
22960Did n''t de Cunnel come dar in all de storm''pressly to see dis gemman?"
22960Did n''t thar big gun-- Daniel Webster-- didn''t he make mince- meat of South Car''lina Hayne on thet ar''subjec''?
22960Did n''t ye say ye war one on''em?
22960Did the Colonel know it?"
22960Did ye ever see sech a critter?"
22960Did you ever see such a look as that?
22960Did you ever try to?"
22960Do many of your neighbors think as you do?"
22960Do n''t they steal our niggers, and haint they''lected an ab''lishener for President?"
22960Do n''t you tink He''ll gib Sam a house?
22960Do n''t you tink dat ef He lub and pity de bery worse whites, dat He lub and pity pore Sam, who warn''t so bery bad, arter all?
22960Do you know him, sir?"
22960Do you know what she asks?"
22960Do you raise any thing else?"
22960Do you realize what it would bring upon us?
22960Do you require to be bowed up to heaven?"
22960Do you think the darkies would fight for their freedom?"
22960Does Pompey say you should do such things?"
22960Does the North believe it?
22960Dress nice, and make money?"
22960Every individual arose from the table, and the Colonel, striding up and down the apartment, exclaimed:"Is he mad?
22960Had n''t ye better show the gentleman some of your''n,''fore you go?"
22960Haint you_ seed_ Massa Tommy, sar?"
22960Has he not insulted you enough to make you let him alone?
22960Has he really given you pledges?"
22960Have you got them safe?"
22960Have you not been struck with the contentment and cheerful subjection of the slaves?"
22960He puts the sperit inter''i m: doan''t we see it in hosses an''critters an''sech like?
22960How can the North and the South hold together when moderate men like you and me are so far apart?"
22960How do you manage them without whipping?"
22960How does all the folks live thar?"
22960How does the man live?"
22960How far is his house from here?"
22960How is little June?"
22960I asked, thinking he had conscientious scruples about running away;"would n''t you if you could buy yourself, and go honestly, as a_ free_ man?"
22960I exclaimed,"and where is the village?"
22960I knows de Lord am bery good to take''i m''way; but why did he take de young chile, and leab de ole man har?"
22960I looked at my watch, and found it was nearly ten o''clock, and, feeling very tired, said to the hostess:"Where do you mean we shall sleep?"
22960I noticed his clothing though bearing evident marks of a drenching, was then dry, and I inquired:"How did you dry your clothes?"
22960I said;"what do you mean by that?"
22960I said;"who tells you that?"
22960If she were at the North she would take to pantaloons, and''stump''the entire free States; would n''t you, Alice?"
22960If the poor whites realized that slavery kept them poor, would they not vote it down?
22960If the wives and daughters of blacks are debauched here, are not the wives and daughters of whites debauched there?
22960If these people were on a par with the farmers of New England, would it last for an hour?
22960If we came to blows, would they try to excite servile insurrection among us?"
22960If we pore sinners feel sorrer for him, haint de Lord''s heart bigger''n our''n, and haint he more sorrer for him?
22960In the midst of it, the Colonel said to me, in an exultant tone:"Well, my friend, what do you think of slavery_ now_?"
22960Is not this perfect enjoyment?"
22960Is your husband away from home?"
22960Jim, how dy''ge?"
22960K----?"
22960K----?"
22960Kinder reckon tain''t, is''t?"
22960Laughing at the reasoning of the negro, I asked:"How would_ you_ like it, if your wife over at Colonel J----''s, had as many husbands as_ she_ liked?"
22960Like to turn in now?"
22960Look at him,"he continued, as the negro approached;"were flesh and bones ever better put together?"
22960Mi''tey sqeemish thet, warn''t it?
22960Observing it, my host said:"Aggy-- showin''yer colors?
22960Observing the fall in his crockery, and the general confusion of things, my host quietly asked,"What''s to pay?"
22960On the route I resumed the conversation:"So, uncle, you say the people here are getting ready for a black burying?"
22960P''r''aps''''twont be one ob de fine hous''n, but wo nt it be a comfible house, dat hain''t no cracks, and one dat''ll keep out de wind and de rain?
22960Putting out of view his actual loss of produce, how does the turpentine farmer feed and employ his negroes?
22960Quite a place, arnt it?"
22960Replying to the question, he said:"Kinder reckon I wull, Cunnel; howsomdever, I keeps the stakes, ony how?"
22960Seeing this, she remarked:"Yer from th''North, sir; arn''t ye?"
22960Ses I:''ye mean th''''ooman''s got ter gwo ter th''hi''est bider?''
22960Sha n''t we trail him thar?"
22960She soon resumed the conversation with this remark:"Reckon yer a stranger in these parts; whar d''ye come from?"
22960Should n''t we be contented?"
22960Suppose they shut up your ports, and leave you with your cotton and turpentine unsold?
22960Tell me, Colonel, what we will gain?"
22960The Colonel, too, was deep in the newspapers, till, after a while, Jim entered the room:"I''se cum to ax ef you''ve nuffin more to- night, Cunnel?"
22960The black meekly seated himself, when the Colonel asked:"Well, Pomp, what do you know about Jule''s going off?"
22960The door of the mansion was bolted and barred; but, rapping for admission, I soon heard the Colonel''s voice asking,"Who is there?"
22960The truth flashed upon me; but could it be possible?
22960Then he added, after a moment''s pause,"Will you help me to get them into the wagon?"
22960Then, after a pause, she added--"What d''ye''lect that darky, Linkum, President for?"
22960Tiring at last of my own thoughts, I said to him:"Scip, what is the matter with you?
22960Was I in South Carolina or in Utah?
22960Was not the system which had so seared and hardened that man''s heart, begotten in the lowest hell?
22960Was this his recollection of the reading heard in the morning?
22960What am any_ slave''s_ life wuth?
22960What do you mean by facing the music?"
22960What do you pay for your corn, your pork, and your hay, for instance?"
22960What do you say, Scip?"
22960What do you think about it, Pompey?"
22960What does she owe to_ you_?"
22960What does your hay cost?"
22960What hab we, sar?
22960What if it works abuses?
22960What if the black, at times, is overburdened, and his wife and daughters debauched?
22960What pore darky am dar dat wudn''t hab sich a massa?
22960What shall I do about Moye?"
22960What shall we do with him?"
22960What shall we do?"
22960What white man kin be more''n dat?
22960What will you do that for?"
22960What''s up with him?"
22960What,"addressing me,"have you seen or heard, sir, that gives you that opinion?"
22960When we were seated, I said to Scip,"What induced you to lay hands on the Colonel?
22960Where are we?"
22960Where did you get it?"
22960Where has he gone?"
22960Where were you?"
22960While seated at the table the Colonel asked:"Has every thing gone right, Alice, since we left home?"
22960While sin here hides itself under cover of the night, does it not there stalk abroad at noon- day?
22960Who fill our brothels?
22960Who is here?"
22960Who load our penitentiaries, crowd our whipping- posts, debauch our slaves, and cheat and defraud us all?
22960Who that reflects that this country has been governed for fifty years by such scum, would give a d---- for republican institutions?"
22960Who told you so?"
22960Who would n''t belong to sich a Massa as dat?
22960Whot''s de use ob habin''ears, ef you do n''t har?"
22960Why did n''t you go then?"
22960Why follow the slow steps he took in order to throw us off the track?
22960Why have n''t you been to me?"
22960Why have you elected a President who approves of nigger- stealing?
22960Why in h-- has he come back?"
22960Why is he so hard with her?
22960Why not go straight on by the road?"
22960Why, are they fleet of foot?"
22960Will ye send fur''em?
22960Will you accompany me, Mr. K----?
22960With all these rowdies here, it will not do to leave the horses alone-- will you stay and keep an eye on them over to- morrow?"
22960Would Shakspeare, had he have known it, have written of taking one''s_ ease_ at his inn?
22960Would they not see that it stands in the way of their advancement, and vote it out of existence as a nuisance?"
22960Yas, my friends, glory be to Him, dat''s what our Heabenly massa say, and who ob you would n''t hab sich a massa as dat?
22960Ye know the Cunnel, du ye?"
22960Ye never seed one-- what d''ye''spose the''luk like?"
22960Ye''r Union gal-- hey?"
22960You do n''t talk to your neighbors in this way?"
22960You have no wife nor child; why not go where the black man is respected and useful?"
22960You raise scarcely any thing else-- what would you eat?"
22960You''ll forgive me for being so cruel to you, wo nt you?"
22960_ Jake_ does not say that-- your master leaves it to him, and_ he_ will not whip a dying man-- will you, Jake?"
22960_ You_ certainly ca n''t do it?"
22960am dat so?"
22960and pressed as these blacks inevitably are by both hunger and idleness, those prolific breeders of sedition, what will keep them quiet?
22960and why do you tolerate such incendiaries as Greeley, Garrison, and Phillips?"
22960and will not a Yankee barter away the chastity of his own mother for a dirty dollar?
22960are they dead?"
22960but who taught you to read?"
22960do you talk politics with your negroes?"
22960eagerly inquired a dozen of the darkies;"and am dar great many folks at de Norf-- more dan dar am down har?"
22960eh, my good fellow?"
22960exclaimed my host;"gone where?"
22960exclaimed the Colonel, perceptibly moderating his tone--"which ones?"
22960for are they not written in the book of His remembrance-- and when he counteth up his jewels, may not some of them be there?
22960have you two wives?"
22960is your son, is he?"
22960my dear fellow,"said the Colonel, on perceiving me,"are you stirring so early?
22960or had he previously committed it to memory?
22960said the Colonel;"what about Sam?"
22960stammered the sleeper, gradually opening his eyes, and raising himself on one elbow,"Lord bless you, Cunnel, is that you?
22960them people that go agin the South?"
22960then turning to our host, said:"Captain, it is late: had we not better retire?"
22960whar''s that?"
22960what in---- brought_ you_ har?"
22960what influence could this North County scum have against_ me_?"
22960what makes you so gloomy?"
22960what''s that?"
22960why so?"
50001A girl? 50001 Ah, no; how could I be?
50001And is this all?
50001And whose cows are those?
50001And you are leaving him?
50001And you have really come to apply for the position?
50001Are you all crazy?
50001Ca n''t you all see that it is my child?
50001Come, come, my little man, what is the matter?
50001Dat hawss? 50001 De nex''Sunday I goes ter Miss Sally''s house, en she axes me''Howdy?''
50001Dear Mother, where are you?
50001Dear''ittle birdie!--birdie dot a Dod?--birdie dot a soul?--''ittle birdie sings praises to Doddie?
50001Did I say that?
50001Did people have tobacco- cloth as well as tobacco- money in those days?
50001Do n''t you know the story?
50001Do n''t you think I know your voice, my dear, from Captain Bright''s?
50001Dr. Minnegerode was n''t a soldier like you and our papa, was he?
50001Go without you? 50001 Good- bye?
50001Good- bye? 50001 Hast thou a nurse-- one that thou call''st trustworthy?"
50001Have you had any experience in teaching?
50001He was in the war, though, was he not?
50001How could I have a gold piece? 50001 How did it happen?"
50001How did you break your heart?
50001How do you know what the Lord knows, Mary Hutchins? 50001 How soon will you be able to go back?"
50001I''m not a bit afraid, and if I were do you think I would let Pickett''s men see me run?
50001I?
50001Is dat Miss Lizzie''s chile? 50001 Is n''t that beautiful?"
50001Is not that monument one of the oldest in Virginia?
50001Is that in England?
50001Is the keepsake in it?
50001Is this the house that Jack built?
50001Lawd, Marsa, whar you been all yo''life not ter know dat wile ducks is dey own ducks?
50001May I ask where you were educated?
50001May I say my prayers with you, too, my boy, and ask the Lord to make us both well and bless us?
50001Mr. Sims, why is it that these terrapin are of such different markings?
50001Nurse, why do you not take the child to its mother?
50001Oh, uncle, may I go?
50001Once, too, I----"You have relatives in Baltimore?
50001Our mama,said Corbell, after Mr. Davis had gone,"what has Mr. Davis got in his throat that makes his talk sound so music- y?"
50001Shall I say grace, Mr. Davis, or will you?
50001She does not know, Lassie; ah, who will tell her? 50001 So de Sunday atter dey moved down I goes''roun''to Miss Lizzy''s house en she axes me''Howdy?''
50001That''s poetry, is n''t it?
50001Then, why do n''t you quiet the child, if you are, and find out what is the matter with it?
50001To whom do those mules belong?
50001What are officers?
50001What are those dark specks, Soldier; are they crows?
50001What can I do for you?
50001What do you mean by putting such notions into that innocent child''s head? 50001 What do you think of this?
50001What do you think would be the effect upon the negro, Mr. Corbell,Colonel Lee asked my father,"if we should be compelled to hang John Brown?"
50001What do you wish?
50001What does this mean?
50001What have you in your bag for me?
50001What is expense?
50001What will you have of me?
50001What''s the matter with you, Johnnies, over there?
50001What''s your hurry? 50001 Where is he now?"
50001Where were you from this morning?
50001Whose chickens are those in the yard?
50001Whose ducks are those?
50001Whose horse is that?
50001Why did n''t you wait for me, you impertinent little rascal?
50001Why do you call me differently, dear?
50001Why do you call me''Tisement?
50001Would I not better ask the Doctor?
50001Yes, that is true; but did you lose your husband in the war?
50001You have been there before, I suppose?
50001_ Where_ is he?
50001''Would I?
50001A lunatic asylum?
50001And you, Miss Lassie-- why should you throw yourself away on the infantry?
50001Are n''t you glad?"
50001Are n''t you the lady?
50001Ca n''t we help?
50001Can I do anything for you?--anything?
50001Could there be light on the pathway that led him from me?
50001Den she say,''Ai n''t you hongry?''
50001Den she say,''Uncle Tom, do n''t you want a dram?''
50001Den she say,''Uncle Tom, do n''t you want sump''n to eat?''
50001Den she say,''Uncle Tom, wo n''t you hab a toddy?''
50001Den when I comes''long back she say,''Uncle Tom, did you he''p yo''se''f plent''ful?''
50001Did you ever see her wipe her nose?"
50001Did you- all have no pillows nor no laps to fotch de po''li''l lamb home''pon widout puttin''her in a settin''-aig- basket?
50001Do you remember how Cæsar commences?"
50001Do you remember how Thomas laughed at me the next day when I told him about it?
50001Do you think that Aunt Mary Christ would have spoken to her little boy Jesus like that?"
50001Father Jansen, who had come from Richmond to see him, asked,"Do you want to see me alone?"
50001Going into Price''s dry- goods store in Richmond she asked in her most dramatic voice:"Have_ ye_ any prints?"
50001He often asked me,"Do n''t you think flowers can feel?"
50001Holes in your pocket and your marbles and knife all dropped out?''
50001How are you, Sister Pickett?"
50001How could anyone so immaculate and so beautiful to look upon have really fought and killed people?
50001How could we live on the rim of a volcano if we could not dance around its crater?
50001How funny I was when I was young, was n''t I?
50001How much do you get for them, and where do you sell them?"
50001How you- all know dat some misforchunement ai n''t gwine to come''count er projickin''wid her lak dat?
50001I cotch Miss firs'', didn''I, Marse?"
50001I remember you did come on board just as the whistle blew; but was there not another passenger who came on with you-- a gentleman?"
50001I stopped for a minute and looking up at her said,"And little Sara, too, please, marm?"
50001If you please, sir, will you get me my stateroom and ticket?
50001Is dat we- alls li''l missis?"
50001Is it tobacco- cloth?"
50001It was so unusual that after Mrs. Davis had greeted me she looked in astonishment at my costume and said:"Child, where did you get these clothes?"
50001Jackson?"
50001Judge Joynes, of Petersburg, asked,"How old is Mrs. Moncure, Judge?"
50001Little George asked:"How about a cat''s?"
50001Looking at them for a few seconds he said:"Boys, what does all this mean?
50001Mammy looked and seeing only my leafy and blossoming cover, ejaculated scornfully:"Aigs?
50001May I kiss her, Pickett?
50001May I see the professor?"
50001Mr. Haxall replied:"Jack, old man, what for?
50001My little Corbell asked her:"What is the use of acting?
50001My, would n''t I make it fly?"
50001Niggers, you- all hyer dat?
50001Now, please, Doctor, excuse me, but wo n''t you all go and leave me alone with my wife?
50001Of course Mr. Davis far outranked my Soldier in that war, but when Corbell asked,"Were you in papa''s Company, Mr. Davis, or was he in yours?"
50001Oh, God, would I?''
50001One soldier rushed to Colonel Phillips shouting,"Say, Colonel, say; ca n''t we do something?
50001S----?"
50001The professor, taking no notice of my confusion, went on to say:"And so you were graduated there?
50001Then I whispered to my grandmother as she carried me away,"Do angels want little children for keepsakes?"
50001Then he asked:"May I order something for you here?"
50001There is a reason; what is it?"
50001This baby, sir?
50001Turning to the General, smiling, Mr. Davis asked:"Where did you get the little lady in the clothes?"
50001Was I in the land of fairies, and was the gentleman with the familiar face the prince of fairies, as he was the prince of lovers?
50001Was that pale, pinched face shrouded in crêpe mine?
50001We were received with fraternal hospitality, our host shaking hands with us solemnly, saying,"How do you do, Brother Pickett?
50001What are you doing here, and where are you going?"
50001What do you mean?
50001What do you suppose she will come to when she grows up?
50001What is all this trouble about?
50001What is it for?"
50001What makes you ask?"
50001What of it?
50001What you thinkin''''bout?
50001When he came in I drew up a chair for him, but he said:"May I not sit on the bed beside our sick boy?"
50001Where is he?"
50001Where is the General?
50001Whether the child needed"the rod withal?"
50001Who in such a position could?
50001Who knows but perhaps somewhere there are belonging to him little ones like ours?"
50001Why do n''t you be it-- just be it?"
50001Will you please be so good as to get my ticket?
50001With a bit of a jealous feeling for my own Soldier I asked:"Did you want to do that to General Pickett?"
50001Wo n''t you let me hold him while you go down and eat something?"
50001You are; do n''t you remember me?"
50001You knows, dey''lowed dat gal to play on de spinet of a Sunday mornin''s?--En dance chunes, at dat?
50001You stop in Baltimore long?"
50001You understand, my son?"
50001You would never leave me now when I need you so?"
50001an''sure an''phwat''s to become of me widout the baby an''leastwise, phwat''s as bad an''worse, phwat''s to become of the baby widout me?"
50001no b- e- a- n- s?"
8992A ship?
8992And a Northerner is thus in a southern town in the thickest of the war?
8992And do you know where the_ Dolphin_ is bound for?
8992And have you many?
8992And his name?
8992And is she fast?
8992And what did you come on board my ship for?
8992And what do you expect from me now?
8992And what is that?
8992And what is this nephew of yours?
8992And what is your name?
8992And what to risk?
8992And who are you?
8992And you are quite sure of your soldiers?
8992Any wounded?
8992Are you a fool?
8992Are you pleased with the charming cargo I brought you on board the_ Dolphin_?
8992But a good one?
8992But how will you manage to effect Mr. Halliburtt''s deliverance, and also escape yourself?
8992But if he does refuse me?
8992But my daughter--?
8992But now what will you do? 8992 But who are you?"
8992Do n''t be alarmed, miss,said James Playfair, in a gentle voice,"but be so good as to tell me how I come to have the honour of having you on board?"
8992Free in the town?
8992Have we pressure on?
8992Have you any Federal prisoners?
8992Have you any plan, Crockston?
8992Have you finished?
8992Have you seen Beauregard?
8992How are the engines?
8992How not all?
8992How now, Master Crockston,cried James Playfair;"do you think the_ Dolphin_ is a training- school for cabin- boys?"
8992I tell you that Mr. Halliburtt will be shot within a week, and you answer, what does it matter?
8992If the General proposes to hang your rebel-- you know that military men like sharp work--"Well, Crockston?
8992Is it true?
8992It is settled, then, Uncle?
8992It will; but shall you be able to get there?
8992Mr. Mathew,said he,"what do you think of this ship?"
8992Nothing else?
8992Rescue Miss Halliburtt''s father?
8992Shall it be kept quiet?
8992So,said he, looking up the mast, the top of which was quite invisible through the morning mists;"so, am I to climb up here?"
8992So,said he,"you believe in the triumph of the slave- holders?"
8992Then do you think we have nothing more to fear from Fort Sumter?
8992To what end?
8992Very well, sir,replied Mr. Mathew, without making the least remark,"and nine o''clock is the time?"
8992Well, Captain?
8992Well, Captain?
8992Well, James?
8992Well, Nephew James?
8992Well, nephew, and when will you start?
8992Well, then, are you ready?
8992Well, what about that?
8992Well, where are you off to now?
8992Well,asked James Playfair,"when must I have you locked up?"
8992What can you expect? 8992 What did you come to do, then?"
8992What do you mean?
8992What do you want with me?
8992What guns does she carry?
8992What have you to say?
8992What is that?
8992What is that?
8992What is your name?
8992What now?
8992What shall I say to Miss Jenny? 8992 What was Mr. Halliburtt, then?"
8992What''s the good?
8992What, the rebellious subject?
8992Where have you sailed?
8992Where is Mr. Halliburtt imprisoned?
8992Who are you? 8992 Who is this man you speak of?"
8992Why at bottom?
8992Would you like any money? 8992 You are not afraid that Charleston will grow weary of a siege which is ruining her?"
8992You believe, like me, that the war of the United States will last a long time still?
8992You do n''t see anything, Crockston?
8992You have read the_ Tribune_, the_ New York Herald, The Times_, the_ Richmond Inquirer_, the_ American Review_?
8992You know how much this struggle will affect the interests of England, and especially those of Glasgow?
8992You think so?
8992Your father, if I remember rightly the address on the letters, is he not from Boston?
8992Admitting that which will never be, that the commercial towns of Virginia, the two Carolinas, Georgia, Alabama, fall under their power, what then?
8992An American, as letters seem to prove?"
8992And what would your Uncle Vincent say to that?
8992And you think that he will be shot?"
8992As for Miss Jenny, did she perceive the feelings which she inspired?
8992But the crew?"
8992But wherefore these cries and this applause?
8992Can it be you?"
8992Can you be ready in six days?"
8992Did he, then, think that the Southern States, eight out of thirty- six, were right in separating when they had been voluntarily united?
8992Did she allow herself to share them?
8992Had the_ Dolphin_, then-- for that was the name of the ship built by Messrs. Tod& MacGregor-- some special peculiarity?
8992Halliburtt?"
8992Halliburtt?"
8992Halliburtt?"
8992Have you a safe man at the helm?"
8992How change to tears of grief the tears of gratitude which filled her eyes?
8992How could Mr. Halliburtt acknowledge the devotion and courage of his deliverer, if it was not by making him the happiest of men?
8992How refuse the hand which she held out to him with a feeling of such profound friendship?
8992How shall we ever be able to thank you?"
8992I have a task to fulfil?"
8992James?"
8992Mathew?"
8992Mr. James,"cried the young girl,"how can I ever repay you for such devotion?
8992On board now?"
8992On board what ship can you have been, man?
8992Or would it be better to keep her in ignorance of the trial which is awaiting her?
8992Ought I to tell her of Mr. Halliburtt''s terrible situation?
8992The leader came up to him, and, seeing the boat, asked:"Whose craft is that?"
8992What was the cause, then, of the lively interest excited by this ship?
8992What will Uncle Vincent say?
8992When he had reached the Captain, he looked fixedly at him, and said,"Captain James Playfair?"
8992Where is Crockston?"
8992Why do you come here?"
8992Will it answer?"
8992Will that be enough, Crockston?"
8992Will they be masters of a country they can never occupy?
8992Will you go up?"
8992Would her launching present some mechanical difficulty to be overcome?
8992You are turning round me like a swimmer round a buoy: when are you going to leave off?"
8992Your friends sail like a buoy; do you hear, Master Crockston?"
8992cried Crockston,"and is that the only difficulty?"
8992cried James,"the house of Playfair ought not to attempt such a commercial enterprise?"
8992cried the Captain to his second, who was stationed at the bows,"what has been damaged?"
8992did you hear me?"
8992that troublesome fellow; you wish to take him back to England?"
8992what does it matter?"
8992what does it matter?"
44865''Live, sir? 44865 And had more comforts?"
44865And now, Johnson, after doing all this for you, you wo n''t forget us, will you? 44865 And the third?"
44865And you would obey orders, then?
44865Are you going home through Washington?
44865Are you going to fight?
44865Are you not afraid of starving, up here among the Abolitionists?
44865Are you one of the prisoners?
44865As you please, madam; what do you call them?
44865But,I asked,"will not war also unite the people of the North?"
44865But,suggested Mr. Snodgrass,"suppose there are two mobs?"
44865By- the- way,asked Burns, mischievously,"do you ever read_ The Tribune_?"
44865Ca n''t you find him out?
44865Ca n''t you get me an opportunity to see him for one moment?
44865Can you conceal us here to- day?
44865Can you give us supper and lodging to- night, and breakfast in the morning? 44865 Did he treat you kindly?"
44865Did you ever hear of Old John Brown?
44865Do n''t you wish you may get it?
44865Do you know what I was doing there?
44865Do you think so? 44865 Do you think so?"
44865Does he ever go home?
44865For how much?
44865General,asked the President,"you do n''t know what''poke''means?
44865Ginger,replied the officer,"have I not often told you that it is very wicked to steal?"
44865Gordon,he asked,"how are your men?"
44865Hatterscheit?
44865Have you any business with him?
44865Have you not seen it often enough to know by this time?
44865He?
44865How are times in the North?
44865How are times in the South? 44865 How did you get away?"
44865How did you hear?
44865How far are you going?
44865How far is it to his house?
44865How far is it?
44865How long shall I stay?
44865How many were there?
44865How strong is it?
44865How will that do, Rousseau?
44865I reckon you have, in all, about seventy thousand men, and three hundred cannon, have n''t you?
44865I suppose you know it is rather precarious business?
44865I wonder if they will call us fancy soldiers and kid- gloved boys any longer?
44865In this room?
44865Is he in town?
44865Is he probably at home?
44865Is it possible?
44865Is it true,she inquired, very sadly,"that your army has been hunting and returning runaway slaves?"
44865Is your wound serious?
44865John,asked one of the correspondents,"does your master really think he is alive?"
44865Just from Vicksburg?
44865More than a mile?
44865My friend,said he, in his deep bass tones,"do you know that you are on very perilous business?"
44865On what do you base your opinion?
44865On your way to Mexico, were you not?
44865Paid for it, did you?
44865Powers-- Powers,said the merchant;"what does he do?"
44865Rather close work, is it not?
44865Southern or Union?
44865This is capital news; is it not?
44865True; but do you suppose they could stand for a single week against the popular feeling which war would arouse?
44865Well, John,asked one of them beside me,"how many regiments like that do you think one of ours could whip?"
44865Well, Uncle,I asked of a white- haired patriarch, who was tottering along the road,"are you a Rebel, like everybody else?"
44865Well, it''s just as easy as rolling off a log, is n''t it?
44865Well, sir,answered Hooker,"have n''t we got as many batteries as they have?
44865Well, uncle, have you joined the army?
44865Were you as well clothed as now?
44865What are you doing down here?
44865What are you, Southerner or Union?
44865What are you, anyhow?
44865What can I do about it?
44865What do you know about the Proclamation?
44865What do you mean?
44865What do you think of the prospect?
44865What do you want?
44865What do you want?
44865What field shall I occupy?
44865What is it?
44865What is your name?
44865What regiment is that?
44865What regiment is this?
44865What was the matter with your battery, Tuesday night?
44865What young lady?
44865When are you coming over?
44865When do you think he left?
44865When may I start?
44865Where are all your soldiers?
44865Where are you from?
44865Where are you going?
44865Where did it strike?
44865Where did you get that turkey?
44865Where do you get your leather?
44865Where do you get your lumber?
44865Where do you procure the birch for pegs?
44865Where is General Tilghman?
44865Where''s your flag of truce?
44865Who are they?
44865Who calls_ me_ an Abolitionist?
44865Who is he?
44865Who is that?
44865Why did n''t you run with them?
44865Why did n''t you say so before? 44865 Why did you expect protection?"
44865Why did you expect us?
44865Why so?
44865Why?
44865Would you come again, knowing what hardships were before you?
44865Would you not have done better to stay at home?
44865You do not remember me, do you?
44865Your workmen, I presume, are from this city?
44865''Why not?''
44865''s name''s Brown,''sn''t it?
44865----?"
44865A black woman, whom we encountered on the road, was asked:"Have you run away from your master?"
44865After a little pause, the surprised Rebel replied:"How in the world did you know me?
44865After pouring his sorrows into the sympathetic ear of the correspondent, he suddenly asked:"What are you here for?"
44865After we exchanged greetings, his first question was--"What did you honestly think of Secession while in New Orleans?"
44865Again and again, leading journals, which were called reputable, asked:"Is there no Brutus to rid the world of this tyrant?"
44865And now I am offered only eight hundred-- eight hundred-- eight hundred-- eight hundred;_ are_ you all done?"
44865Are you Union or Secession?"
44865Are you fond of the marvelous?
44865Are you going to New Orleans?"
44865Are you the Home Guard?"
44865Assisting her to the shore, we asked:"Will you tell us where Ben Hanby lives?"
44865At Upperville, the next day, I inquired of a woman who was scrutinizing us from her door:"Have you seen any Rebel pickets this morning?"
44865At the close of the interview, he asked anxiously:"General, you wo n''t send me back, will you?"
44865At what hour will you come?"
44865Before he had been in our room five minutes one of the sub- wardens entered, asking:"Is there anybody here who has''greenbacks?''
44865Being asked with great gravity the extremely Bohemian question,"_ Which_ of them?"
44865But afterward it began to ask:"How is this?
44865But do you want to know when I gave him up?
44865But how to tell what''s old or young-- the tap- root from the sprigs, Since Florida revealed her fount to Ponce de Leon Twiggs?"
44865But what d''you elect that---- Abolitionist, Murphy, t''th''Leg''slature for?"
44865But who_ is_ that Abolitionist you''lected here?
44865By the way, to- morrow is Sunday; why ca n''t you go home and take a quiet family dinner with me?"
44865Can any of us live to accomplish it?"
44865Can you not see that they never receive any accessions?
44865Commodore Foote asked him:"How could you fight against the old flag?"
44865Davis here, ai n''t you?"
44865Do they expect to conciliate our people in this manner?"
44865Do you know how long you_ will_ stay?
44865Do you understand?"
44865Do you?"
44865Frequently prisoners asked us, sometimes with tears in their eyes:"What shall we do?
44865Had he been a Philadelphian or Bostonian, would not his friends have deemed him a candidate for a lunatic asylum?
44865Have you heard Prentice''s last, upon the bursting of the Rebel bubble that Cotton is King?
44865He made few assertions, but merely asked questions:"Is not this true?
44865He shook hands cordially with his visitor, and asked, in great glee:"Rousseau, where did you get that joke about Senator Johnson?"
44865How can they avoid it, when you refuse to give them proper information?
44865How did you learn to read?"
44865How should he paint the mother of mankind but in----"The flowing gold Of her loose tresses,"as a blonde-- the distinctive type of northern beauty?
44865I asked her:"How do you live and support your family?"
44865I asked him the other day:''Wo n''t you kill some of them before you are ever captured?''
44865I asked him:"Did you work as hard for your old master as you do here?"
44865I asked:"Can you direct me to the widow----?"
44865I have never encountered that mythical entity in my travels; but''tis a fearful thing to think of-- is it not?
44865I looked steadily in his eye, and inquired:"Do you think so?"
44865I supposed we had traveled three miles, when Davis fell back from the front, and said to me:"That young lady rides very well, does she not?"
44865I ventured to ask:"Are we near the top?"
44865If such a picture were exhibited in Boston, would those who clamor in our ears about negro equality ever permit us to hear the last of it?
44865If you admit that fact, is not this induction correct?"
44865In the confusion caused by our evolutions in the eddies, I had quite lost the points the of compass, and asked:--"In which direction is Vicksburg?"
44865Is it not equally absurd to anathematize every man of my profession for the sins of a few unworthy members?"
44865Is n''t that it, boss?"
44865Is not this the very ecstasy of madness?
44865Looking earnestly into his eyes, I asked him:"Are you a Union man or a Secessionist?"
44865Need I add that it is a Yankee invention?
44865Now, when you get home to New York, ca n''t you ascertain who he is, and let us know?"
44865Of an Ohio regiment, lying upon the ground, he asked:--"Boys, do you see that strip of woods?"
44865On being asked by a member--"Did you vote for the Secession ordinance several weeks ago?"
44865Once, while his star was in the ascendant, some one asked Mr. Seward:"Will Judge Douglas ever be President?"
44865One day I asked my New Orleans friend:"Why have you raised all this tempest about Mr. Lincoln''s election?"
44865One of his judges and would- be executioners asked him:"Well, sir, what have you to say for yourself?"
44865Powers, of New Orleans?"
44865Presently a Chicago reporter inquired of him:"How do you spell your name, General?"
44865Presently we again inquired:"Will you be good enough to accommodate us, or must we look farther?"
44865Recognizing the plate, I asked the intelligent young Baltimore negro who brought it:"Is my friend waiting below?"
44865Revolutions ride rough- shod over all probabilities; and who has mastered the logic of civil war?
44865Senator Wade once asked him,"How long were you at the Military Academy?"
44865Should we never leave them behind?
44865Suggesting that I might have interfered with such an attempt, I asked:"Do you think you could hit him?"
44865That German from Leavenworth was also with us-- what was his name?"
44865The Rebels now ceased firing, and shouted--"Have you no boats?"
44865The general''s manner changed from Indian summer to a Texas norther, and he asked, in freezing tones:"Have you not come to the wrong place, sir?"
44865The sentinel stopped me with his musket, demanding:"Have you a pass, sir?"
44865There, over the bayonet of the sentinel, this whispered conversation followed:"We hope to get out to- night; can we find refuge in your house?"
44865Three or four days later, Colburn asked him--"Were you ever under fire before Sunday night?"
44865Turning to Clayton, he asked:"What troops are these?"
44865Two questions they invariably asked:--"What are you going to do with us, after you have subjugated us?"
44865Unable to recognize him, I asked:--"Who are you?"
44865We all gathered around him and asked--"General"( that was his_ soubriquet_ in the prison),"what does this mean?"
44865We would hear the opening door and stealthy footsteps upon the barn- floor; then a soft voice would ask:"Friends, are you there?"
44865What can I do?
44865What do you know about a gambler?"
44865What does he care about our rights?
44865What does it all mean?
44865What exile from his country Can flee himself as well?
44865What forecast or augury could tell?
44865What is the news, Treadaway?"
44865What route was he going to take?"
44865What should I be a Rebel for?
44865When I asked one of them--"Where are all the white people?"
44865When I handed her a twenty- dollar Rebel note, she inquired--"Have you nothing smaller than this?"
44865When a subordinate asked the post- Commandant, Major John H. Gee,"Shall I give the prisoners full rations?"
44865Where is he?"
44865Where is the best one?''
44865Where is your place?"
44865Where should he place the Garden of Eden but in the tropics?
44865Where would it end?
44865Which of the boys had I better send?"
44865While I was pleasantly engaged in a whist- party in the cabin, this fragment of a conversation between two bystanders reached my ears:"A spy?"
44865Who can be***** Loyal and neutral in a moment?
44865Who could resist such a feminine appeal?
44865Who shall deliver us from the body of this Black Republican flag?
44865Whose servant are you?"
44865Why did they not think of all this before?
44865Why do you call them Rebels?"
44865Why, then, should one go to Germany, unless, indeed, like Bayard Taylor, he goes for a wife?
44865Will you have a cigar?
44865Wo n''t you go and haul me a load of wood, as a Christmas present?"
44865You do n''t take me for a fool, do you?
44865You do n''t, do you?"
44865You wo n''t send me back, will you?"
44865_ En passant_, do you know what a Black Republican flag is?
44865_ Friday, January 13._ My poor steed gave signs of approaching dissolution; and I asked the first man I saw by the roadside:"Would you like a horse?"
44865_ Wednesday, January 11._ As we drowsed upon the pine leaves, I asked:"When shall we join the footmen?"
44865and,"What will you do with the negroes, after you have freed them?"
44865he replied,"you do n''t suppose I''m a fool, do you?
44865talked to us incessantly in a low tone:--"How are you, Yanks?
44865why did you-- how could you do this?
44865you have a revolver right here in your belt, have n''t you?
44865|Freedom.--|| 29|business?''
44865|Tribune?"
44865|business?"
44865|| 123|Tribune?
60629A tall dark man, who sometimes rides a white mule?
60629Allen, do you see anything?
60629And has no officer or friend been with them?
60629And he told you himself?
60629And will we be furnished with food?
60629And your mother?
60629Any officers?
60629Are you alone here?
60629Are you badly hurt, Major?
60629Are you from the Obion?
60629Bischoff,I called, in a suppressed tone,"where are you?"
60629Can anything be done?
60629Captain,says the doctor from the ambulance,"must you go back?"
60629Could n''t you let me go now, sir? 60629 Did Edward Ashby see them himself?"
60629Did they anticipate such a death and such a burial when they came from distant pleasant homes to serve in the great army?
60629Did they die during the night?
60629Did you hear that barking?
60629Did you know him?
60629Did you see anything of my men?
60629Do n''t you know you are violating military law, and are liable to be arrested?
60629Had you a pass through our lines?
60629Hamelder,I cried,"what have you done with my horse?"
60629Has everything been quiet in this house?
60629Have you reported to any of our officers, or taken the oath?
60629Have you seen or heard anything?
60629Have you the government permits to buy goods?
60629Have your neighbors guns and powder?
60629How could you doubt it?
60629How did this information reach them?
60629How far is it back to Farmington?
60629How far is it from Caledonia to Paris?
60629How is Leonard?
60629How many men for guard and picket, captain?
60629How many of my men have come in?
60629How sick?
60629I presume,I continued,"you have not seen Captain Nott''s little book, describing his visit here, and his adventures in these parts?"
60629Is Captain Mitchell in this house?
60629Is Mrs. Reynolds at home?
60629Is anything the matter?
60629Is that a fire, captain?
60629Is the adjutant in?
60629Is there any reason for their coming down this road?
60629Sam,says one of the men,"do you remember the fight on the Obion last spring?"
60629Sergeant, what do you think of it?
60629Shall I halt them?
60629Shall I order the men to fall in?
60629Shall I throw my pistol after it? 60629 Thank you, doctor; is there anything left in yours?"
60629The Southern army?
60629Then you are really Union soldiers? 60629 Was it Memphis?"
60629Well, captain, any more order?
60629Well, uncle,said the little girl,"are you running away again from the rebel soldiers?"
60629What are you galloping for?
60629What can it be? 60629 What does that mean?"
60629What does that mean?
60629What indeed shall we do?
60629What is it?
60629What is that, sergeant?
60629What is the matter with that poor man?
60629What kind?
60629What name, sir?
60629What,I ventured to ask,"is your husband''s name?"
60629When did he leave it?
60629When we get there, will you let us go?
60629When will they be buried?
60629When will your squadron be ready?
60629Where are you from?
60629Where is your father, my boy?
60629Where were these goods bought?
60629Where will you put our horses, Bischoff?
60629Where?
60629Which way were they going?
60629Who has got any matches?
60629Whose children are these? 60629 Why did you not go?"
60629Why, boys,he said,"what on earth are you doing here this time o''night?"
60629Will there be another?
60629Will your mistress be back to- night?
60629Will your officers let me write to tell them I am alive?
60629Yes,I answered;"and what are you?"
60629_ Will you see the body?_said the superintendent.
60629Against such goodness and patriotism, who could raise objections?
60629And, now, what do you tell me?
60629As I approach, he wheels sharply round and challenges,"Who comes there?"
60629As I was thus seated the question arose, What should I do?
60629As the black boy loiters round, I say to him,"Well, Dick, have you seen any soldiers before this?"
60629Ashby''s?"
60629But one of the first questions put to me was,"When will the major and the rest of the party be here?"
60629Clokes?"
60629Did he continue delirious?
60629Do I see a light?
60629Do you know, sir, whether trade will be opened soon with the North: our hand- cards are nearly worn out, and I do not know where to look for others?
60629Doctor, I say, did you hear that?"
60629Four-- five-- six miles, and they ask:"Do you mean to take us to Como?"
60629Gentlemen, ca n''t you do anything for my son?"
60629He tells me it is about eight miles, and says:"So you are going to Boydsville, are you?"
60629I asked;"who could have brought it?"
60629I therefore hasten to announce myself by saying,"How are you, Mrs. Hurt?
60629I went up to the next patient and whispered my question,"Did you know the young man who died this morning?"
60629Indeed-- why what did they do to her?"
60629Instead of saying,"How early did you_ get up_ this morning?"
60629Is our old friend false to us?
60629It is very easy to say_ wait_, but how are we to_ wait_?
60629It puzzled me at first; then I whispered to the sergeant,"Is this Sunday?"
60629Mitchell?"
60629Perhaps you will ask,"What is a picket?"
60629Shall we keep on?
60629She partly opened the book, then stopped, and looking deliberately at me, said,"Well, sir, what_ must_ I play?"
60629Should I crawl to some barn or stack, and take the chance of their not searching it?
60629Should I go to Paducah?
60629Should I remain hidden in the woods, trusting to their leaving in a few days?
60629So, marching up, he said,"Miss, will you be so kind as to give me a chew of your tobacco?"
60629So, recollecting all this, I said to Dick:"Well, Dick, what did your missus say about the Union soldiers?"
60629Suddenly Mr. Hurt sprang up and said,"What are those men?"
60629Suddenly, close behind us, and in a very startled tone, came"Who comes there?"
60629The cousin looked toward the woods; the little schoolmaster asked if he might not stay with his child just this one night?
60629The question, What shall be done?
60629Then came the painful questions: Who have come in?
60629Was the man on horseback a picket, and will there be a troop clattering down on us in a few minutes?
60629What do they send salt beef to the army for?
60629What have we done that we must suffer so?
60629What shall we do?"
60629What_ shall_ I do?
60629When she returned, I inquired:"Is your husband at home?"
60629Where did they say they were going?"
60629Where does K''s family live?
60629Where would you prefer my putting the horses?"
60629Who are missing?
60629Who knows anything of that one?
60629Who last saw this one?
60629Who would have dreamt of the colonel playing us such a trick?
60629Will he dare to come here?"
60629Would my strength hold out if I went on?
60629Yours?"
60629and did he wish for some fond hand to support his head, some kind ear to receive his parting words?
60629and who will write to tell them how he fell?
60629and would the fractured bone, that I felt under my coat, and the growing pain in my side, do without the surgeon''s care till I could make my way out?
60629are you the man with the oxen?"
60629do those mules plough all day and gallop home in this way at night?"
60629how so?"
60629how we trusted them then; and how faithful we found them?
60629or was he conscious through those last lonely hours?
60629they asked;"how far off is the enemy now?
60629they would say,"How early did you_ arise_?"
60629where did she see them?"
6958''How does Bob Cole disguise himself?'' 6958 ''Oh, yes?
6958''Well,''said I,''do you know that as long as I have been in the army, I have never seen this man?''
6958''What kind of a looking man is he?'' 6958 ''Which one?''
6958''Yes,''I replied,''we do want officers; but does your son know anything about a ship?'' 6958 All ready forward there?"
6958An''what''s come on the kernel''s mail?
6958Are we attacked? 6958 Be these all the fellers you- uns hev got?"
6958Been getting a blowing up already?
6958Bob, are you a good swimmer?
6958Boy, who lives here?
6958But I say, Frank, how long has this fighting been going on?
6958But who is to undertake the job? 6958 But who were the richest men in this place before the war broke out?"
6958Captain,shouted the commander of the transport, who stood in his pilot- house,"what do you want me to do?"
6958Do n''t you understand, Tom?
6958Do you suppose I''m going to back out now? 6958 Do you surrender?"
6958Do you surrender?
6958Do you want to send us adrift without any steam? 6958 Eh?"
6958George,sobbed the little fellow,"are you a Yankee''bolitionist?"
6958Have I got a pair of ears?
6958How came you here? 6958 How is it, captain?"
6958How many of you were to go?
6958How soon do you start?
6958I did n''t suppose it could be done openly, sir; but could n''t it be accomplished by stratagem in the night, for instance?
6958Is Paymaster Winters in the cutter?
6958Is that your brother?
6958Lively while it lasted, was n''t it? 6958 May I ask, colonel,"said the one who had not yet spoken,"how soon those boats will be ready?"
6958Never been in this town before?
6958Now,soliloquized Archie,"I am to stay here, am I?
6958Of what use would it be to me? 6958 Paymaster,"said Frank, turning to his cousin,"had n''t you better remain on board?"
6958Shall we allow them to come alongside, sir?
6958Them ar two fellers come out here an''burn a house with more''n three hundred men in it? 6958 Then why do you answer hails, and land here without my permission?
6958They would, eh?
6958Well, how would you go to work?
6958Well, major, what do you think of this, sir?
6958What do you want?
6958What is his other name?
6958What is it? 6958 What steamer is that?"
6958What will_ you_ do?
6958What''s that?
6958What''s the matter now?
6958What''s the use of having any more?
6958Where''s your master?
6958Who are you, and what are you doing here at this time of night?
6958Who do you mean, my little man?
6958Who''d a thought it?
6958Who''s that, I wonder?
6958''But what on earth brings you here?
6958''Did n''t you never see him?
6958''What does he do in the Yankee camp?''
6958''Who is he?
6958A negro was leaning against the counter, and of him Frank inquired--"Boy, do you belong here?"
6958An opportunity was soon offered, for one of the butternuts approached him, and inquired--"Got any Northern money-- greenbacks?"
6958And how did it happen that he had not aroused the hound while he was about the house?
6958Are you in command?"
6958As I came out of the tent I met the hostler, who inquired:"''Are you off again to- night, Bill?''
6958At this moment a man entered the cabin, the door of which stood open, and inquired:"Going over to- night, Stiles?"
6958Been in the service more than two years, and"--"Why, Archie Winters, is this you?"
6958But how did that other feller get away?"
6958But how is the mail?"
6958But if Frank was in trouble, why did he not give the signal to the cutter''s crew?
6958But where''s your prisoner?"
6958But, Archie, are you really ordered to this vessel?"
6958But, Mr. Nelson, may I be so bold as to ask one question-- one favor, I may say?"
6958Can you pull an oar?"
6958Could it be possible that he was the spy?
6958Did he ever visit his home when in town?
6958Do yer know him?''
6958Do you know that you have rendered yourselves liable to a court- martial?
6958Do you understand?"
6958Do you understand?"
6958Do you understand?"
6958Do you wish to go back to the ship, and leave us here alone?"
6958Finally, he said:"I''ve heered as how all these''ere boats hev got hot water; has yourn?"
6958Got any money?"
6958Had he moved so silently that the animal had not heard him, or had he been in the building with the men?
6958Have you any weapons?"
6958He instantly recovered his feet, and turning fiercely upon Frank and the pilot, exclaimed:"What are you about?
6958He met me with the usual question,''Is the captain in?''
6958He then addressed the coxswain, saying:"Now, Tom, what can I do for you?
6958His name is Thorne, and-- what''s the matter, captain?"
6958How many men have you lost?"
6958How was he to set fire to it?
6958I suppose you have got it?"
6958Is he a Northern man?"
6958Is it a bargain?"
6958Is the paymaster on board?
6958Nelson?"
6958Nelson?"
6958Ought he to oppose the lieutenant, the lawful commander of the vessel?
6958The latter went below to order his steward to procure the provisions, and the man inquired--"Will yer let a feller look about a leetle?
6958Then raising his it voice, he called out,"Who comes there?"
6958Then, raising his voice, he called out,"What do you want out there?"
6958There''s no gunner''s- mate on board this vessel, an''I think I can take charge of the magazine-- don''t you, sir?"
6958Turning to the coxswain, Frank inquired:"Is that cutter ready for immediate use?"
6958Was it his duty to stand by and allow himself and his men to be surrendered without even a show of resistance?
6958Was you takin''a chaw of tobaker, Bob?"
6958Were you dreaming?"
6958What are you doing?
6958What do you want?
6958What do you want?"
6958What do you want?''
6958What had become of the wounded pilot, the lieutenant, and the rest of the cutter''s crew?
6958What if it was Frank in danger, and shouting to the cutter''s crew for help?
6958What if the transport should be fired upon and disabled?
6958What kind of a craft is that?"
6958What will he do?"
6958What''s to be done now, sir?"
6958Where are you going?''
6958Where do you keep the boat in which you were going to carry that mail?"
6958Where is that black rascal?"
6958Who''s to go out there, in the face of three or four hundred rebels, and do it?
6958Why do n''t you come here during our office hours, if you want to see me?''
6958Will you take me?"
6958With this determination, he walked up to the pilot- house, and inquired:"Do you know, sir, that I command this boat?"
6958Would you like a leave of absence, to go home and visit your friends?"
6958_ Will_ you allow me to know myself?
6958colonel, are you wounded?"
6958ejaculated the captain, in surprise,''my good man, allow me to know what I''m about, will you?
6958or did he make his head- quarters somewhere else?
6958or what if something about the engine should let down?
6958replied the lieutenant,"that would allow the boat to swing away from the bank, and then how would you get on board?
6958what noise was that?"
6958what time?
5392And did you think I would care, dear?
5392And how do you know?
5392And mother?
5392And not a shot fired?
5392And not a shot fired?
5392And what did you bring, my girl?
5392And why should he be made to, Captain Lyon? 5392 And you would n''t tell me, Lige?
5392And-- and do you think the city is safe?
5392Anything happened?
5392Are n''t you the young man who made the Union speech in Mercantile Library Hall?
5392Are you sure that you know him?
5392But Jack? 5392 But you?
5392By glory, but he''s even better than I thought him, Did you see a black powder mark on his face?
5392Ca n''t you tell me something bad about him? 5392 Can-- can I do anything?"
5392Did he tell you?
5392Did n''t they tell you?
5392Do you care?
5392Do you intend to go sir?
5392Do you know if Clarence Colfax has gone home?
5392Do you love him? 5392 Do you mean that he has deserted us?"
5392Do you think I can stay here while my people are shot down by a lot of damned Dutchman?
5392Do you think so, Jinny?
5392Do you want to go, Ned?
5392Do you want to go, Ned?
5392Does he think that the-- the Rebellion can be put down?
5392Does that mean Camp Jackson?
5392Find it pretty hard?
5392Go, my dear?
5392Has he gone down to see Clarence?
5392He has gone to Jefferson City, to see the Governor.."And you came alone?
5392Heard what?
5392How car, you expect them to do it right the first day, and in this wind?
5392I thought it was the Dutch coming to murder us all, What have they done to Clarence?
5392In the rain?
5392Is Captain Colfax here?
5392Is it not for the Union?
5392Is my bag packed?
5392Is n''t Clarence enough of a fire- eater to suit you?
5392Is n''t there a Davis Avenue?
5392Is that why you were working over that map of the city last night?
5392Is the Major going back into the army?
5392Is there danger?
5392Jinny, would you like to blow the whistle?
5392Jinny,cried that lady, frantically,"are you to go or stay?
5392Jinny,he said slowly,"Jinny, do you mean to marry Clarence?"
5392Jinny,said the Captain,"did you ever know why cabins are called staterooms?"
5392Lige, did n''t I raise you? 5392 Lige, is that you?
5392Lige,she said,--are you sure that this is not-- a kindness?"
5392Max, you are going to stay here?
5392Miss Jinny, you ai n''t gwineter leave yo''ol mammy?
5392My God, Colonel,exclaimed the other, passionately,"how could I?
5392O Jinny,murmured that lady, who had revived,"ca n''t you do something?
5392Oh Miss Jinny, ai n''t you gwineter Glencoe? 5392 Oh, are you sure it''s Captain Brent?"
5392Oh, what have you heard?
5392Pa, are you ill?
5392Pa, will you forbid him to come here-- now?
5392Pa,said Virginia,"did you volunteer?"
5392So the Cap''n be still harpin''on that?
5392That he has left us here defenceless,--at the mercy of the Dutch, that they may wreak their vengeance upon us women? 5392 Then the Germans are not moving on the city?"
5392Then what?
5392Then why not go to the Barracks? 5392 There is something I can do for you, my dear?"
5392To Camp Jackson?
5392Virginia, where are we going?
5392Well, Whipple,he said,"this nation is going to the devil; eh?"
5392What I gwineter answer? 5392 What do you mean by coming out of the yard?
5392What do you mean by that?
5392What is it, mother?
5392Where are you going, Jinny?
5392Where are you going?
5392Where is Comyn?
5392Where is the Captain?
5392Who''s afraid of the Dutch?
5392Who''s man enough in Washington to shake his fist in a rebel''s face? 5392 Why are n''t women made generals and governors?"
5392Why did Uncle Comyn not come?
5392Why not, Colonel Carvel?
5392Why not?
5392Why not?
5392Why, Stephen?
5392Will you come into my quarters and have a bottle of beer with Tiefel?
5392Will, are the flannels in your knapsack? 5392 William,"said the young lady, roguishly,"how is the eye, location, and memory?"
5392Wo n''t you let me go?
5392You ai n''t goin''in, Brent?
5392You-- you can not go? 5392 Ai n''t you gwineter flee away? 5392 And why?
5392And yet-- was not that smile in derision of herself-- of her friends who were running away?
5392Are you North or South?"
5392Brice?"
5392But what of the long nights when husband and wife have lain side by side?
5392But where to go?
5392But who is this officer breaking his sword to bits against the fence, rather than surrender it to a Yankee?
5392But-- alas, that she should carry it out to a remorseless end-- would Clarence have been equal to keeping silence when Mr. Brinsmade came to him?
5392Can you?"
5392Comyn says they may release him, does he?
5392Could she ever live with her aunt after what she had said?
5392Did you see him at Camp Jackson-- was he hurt?"
5392Do you see that they are above the state flag?
5392Doan''t you hear de carridges a- rattlin''off to de country?"
5392Doan''t you hear''em, Miss Jinny?
5392Had she any right to treat such a man with contempt?
5392Has Mr. Brinsmade come?
5392Have n''t I taught you that my house was your home?
5392Have n''t you done anything?
5392Hopper?"
5392Hopper?"
5392How can we guess that our teachers laugh at our pranks after they have caned us for them?
5392How can you sit still, Virginia?
5392How was he to confess to Richter, of all men?
5392If you and she are taken away, what have I left in life?
5392In what way has he opposed the United States troops?"
5392Is he turning Yankee, too?"
5392Is war a thing to stir the blood?
5392Like to see Bill Jenks?"
5392My Marsa he say:''Whaffor you leave ma house to be ramsacked by de Dutch?''
5392Nevertheless he said kindly:"Are n''t you going in, Grant?"
5392Not dignified, eh, Whipple?
5392Or was it thunder?
5392Ought not he, Stephen Brice, to ask this man with the cigar what he knew, and tell Judge Whipple?
5392Perhaps he thought-- but how can we tell what he thought?
5392Rebellion?
5392Sack it?
5392Seeing Stephen standing there, he exclaimed:"Mistah Brice, if de Dutch take Camp Jackson, is we niggers gwinter be free?"
5392Shall we follow him?
5392So that when a fellow came aboard he''d say:''What state am I in, Cap?''
5392Stephen did not answer, for the piano had started again,"If ever I consent to be married, And who could refuse a good mate?
5392The Colonel faced quickly about, and held out his gloved hand cordially,"Captain Ulysses Grant,"said he;"of the old army?"
5392The girl clung to her bonnet Will you like her any the less when you know that it was a shovel bonnet, with long red ribbons that tied under her chin?
5392The thought came to her-- was it that which sustained him now?
5392They ca n''t hold him a day-- can they, Lige?"
5392To Glencoe?
5392To Kirkwood or Webster?
5392Was it he who started the old rumor which made such havoc that afternoon?
5392Was it not an assumption of Northern superiority, to be resented?
5392Was she a traitor to that flag for which her people had fought in three wars?
5392Was that the beat of the drums?
5392Was the flag still there?
5392Was this disloyal?
5392What are they waiting for?
5392What courage sublime is that which lets her wave at him?
5392What did Jack do?"
5392What did he say?
5392What does the newspaper say?"
5392What if the South should win?
5392What might not its Barbarians do when roused?
5392What might they not do to the defenceless city under their victorious hand, whose citizens were nobly loyal to the South?
5392What of the children who ask piteously where their father is going, and who are gathered by a sobbing mother to her breast?
5392What right had he to pull down that flag, to die on the pavement before that house?
5392What would he think,--this man who had fought and suffered and renounced his native land for his convictions?
5392What would it bring forth?
5392What''s this I hear about Clarence?"
5392Where are you living now?"
5392Where is the picture of that last breakfast at home?
5392Who in this nobler allegiance was ready to die for them?
5392Who was this stranger?
5392Whose will be the Arsenal now?
5392Why could not the Captain see her?
5392Why do n''t they move?
5392Why does God mock her with sunlight and with friends?
5392Why had he not been born, like Clarence Colfax, the owner of a large plantation, the believer in the divine right of his race to rule?
5392Why had they not thanked God on their knees for peace while they had it?
5392Why should she be happy, and other mothers miserable?
5392Why?"
5392Will he ever come back to her?
5392Will she ever see it again?
5392Will the Yankees murder him for treason, or send him North to languish the rest of his life?
5392Would he be duped by the Governor''s ruse of establishing a State Camp at this time?
5392Would there be wisdom in flight?
5392Would you like to go down with me?"
5392You did n''t let the Yankees frighten you-- But where is Jackson?"
5392You do n''t, hate me?"
5392You have not forgotten that medicine for your cough?"
5392You wo n''t obey me?"
5392You-- you heard?"
5392he cried,"what have I done that my son should be a traitor, in arms against his own brother fighting for his people?
845A Poet, curious in birds and brutes, I do not question thee in idle play; What is thy station?
845And am I flattered by my own affection?
845And shall not evening call another star Out of the infinite regions of the night, To mark this day in Heaven?
845And that sweet face which only yesternight Came to thy solace, dreamer( didst thou read The blessing in its eyes of tearful light?
845And what are they that peep Betwixt the foliage in the tree- top there?
845And what the metaphysics of thy tribe?
845And who could share the ecstatic thrill With which we watched the upturned bill Of our bird at its living spring?
845And, under God, whose thunder need we fear?
845Bring they with them jewels From the sunset lands?
845Can joy be weary, that my eyelids droop?
845Christmas How grace this hallowed day?
845Could we desire To quench that diadem''s celestial light, To hush thy song and stay thy heavenward flight, Because we miss thee by this autumn fire?
845Do you remember that picture of extreme old age which Charles Reade gives us in''Never Too Late to Mend''?
845Does any falter?
845Doubtless thou hast thy pleasures-- what are THEY?
845Dreams Who first said"false as dreams"?
845Ethnogenesis Written During the Meeting of the First Southern Congress, at Montgomery, February, 1861 I Hath not the morning dawned with added light?
845Have I not taught, or striven to teach the right, And kept my heart as clean, my life as sweet, As mortals may, when mortals mortals meet?
845How could we bear the mirth, While some loved reveler of a year ago Keeps his mute Christmas now beneath the snow, In cold Virginian earth?
845How know they, in their busy vacancy, With what far aim thy spirit may be fraught?
845How know they, these good gossips, what to thee The ocean and its wanderers may have brought?
845How shall we grace the day?

845IV"They Dub Thee Idler, Smiling Sneeringly"They dub thee idler, smiling sneeringly, And why?
845In the name of all starry and beautiful things, What is it?
845In what dead century swept that mingled throng Of mighty pains and pleasures through my heart?
845Indeed, in such a storm, what shelter could a poet find?
845Is all at peace that breast within?
845Is it wonder that my passion bursts at once from out its nest?
845Is not the obvious lesson something worth, Lady?
845Is there indeed a door, Where the old pastimes, with their lawful noise, And all the merry round of Christmas joys, Could enter as of yore?
845Laughing girl, and thoughtful woman, I am puzzled how to woo-- Shall I praise, or pique her, Lily?
845Lily- browed and lily- hearted, She is very dear to me; Lovely?
845Needs must I sing on these blue March days?
845Now, come what may, whose favor need we court?
845Oh, what will chance, and wherein will it end?
845Or gather wine when wine is spilt?
845Or if I dare thy hand to touch, Hath nothing pressed its palm before?
845Or sleeping on the ice amid an arctic noon?
845Or that thou dost not bow thee silently Before some great unutterable thought?
845Or wast thou but as one who aims to fling The weight of some unutterable thought Down like a burden?
845Riding with the genii?
845See"Which are the clouds, and which the mountains?
845See"XII"What Gossamer Lures Thee Now?
845Shall happy bells, from yonder ancient spire, Send their glad greetings to each Christmas fire Round which the children play?
845Shall we, shall you and I, before That world''s unsympathetic eyes Lay other relics from our store Of tender memories?
845Speak freely, without fear of jest or gibe-- What is thy moral and religious creed?
845That her step on the stair?
845The Arctic Voyager Shall I desist, twice baffled?
845The Lily calmly braves the storm, And shall the Palm- tree fear?
845Thou who hast turned ONE Poet- heart to stone, Is thine yet burning with its seraph flame?
845To Whom?
845Visiting the moon?
845What Hope, What Name"What gossamer lures thee now?
845What are these they scatter With such lavish hands?
845What are thy pursuits?
845What could it know of the joy and love That throbbed and smiled and wept above An unresponsive thing?
845What dreams to fruit have grown?
845What have they been doing In the burning June?
845What hope, what name Is on thy lips?
845What is the lesson which she designs by these means to convey?
845What though we hear about our path The heavens with howls of vengeance rent?
845What will you say, when I tell you here, That already, I think, for a little praise, I have paid too dear?
845What, in a lot so sweet as this, Is wanting to complete your bliss?
845When did I feel the sorrow, act the part, Which I have striv''n to shadow forth in song?
845Where art thou now?
845Who cleanse a soul that loves its guilt?
845Who guessed as that poor infant wept Upon a woman''s knee, A nation from the centuries stept As weak and frail as he?
845Who saw the future on his brow Upon that happy morn?
845Who whispered then?
845Why Silent?
845Why am I silent from year to year?
845Why walk we thus alone, when by our side, Love, like a visible God, might be our guide?
845With feast, and song, and dance, and antique sports, And shout of happy children in the courts, And tales of ghost and fay?
845Would not some pallid face Look in upon the banquet, calling up Dread shapes of battles in the wassail cup, And trouble all the place?

845XXXIII Is not the breeze articulate?
845Yet ev''n now I weave a chaplet for thy sinless brow;-- Wilt thou not wear it?
845Yet not the gravest soldier of them all Surveys a field with broader scope; And who behind that sea- encircled wall Fights with a loftier hope?
845can the guileless maiden share The wish that lifts that passionate prayer?
845didst thou hear a voice like many streams?
845dost thou flatter falsely, Hope?
845explain The sources of that hidden pain?
845for the world hast thou wrought?
845have I not owned thy law?
845is it fancy, That beneath us sighs, As that warm lap receives the largesse of the skies?
845or have I wov''n an idle rhyme?
845so wondrous wise indeed?
845tell me, is the hope then all misplaced?
845the cross in the centre, these rings, And the petals that shoot in an intricate maze, From the disk which is lilac-- or purple?
845then I need not say How quaint the place is-- did you mark An ivied window?
845was that a rose- leaf fell?
845what boots it?
845what can be its name?
845what of him?
845what vision chains that wide- strained sight?
845who can save A willing victim of the wave?
845who could have wronged thee so?
845who knows But that for you this chamber glows With stately shapes and solemn shows?"
845why may not love and life be one?
845would not grow warm When thoughts like these give cheer?
845yet was it all thy fault?
29387A which?
29387About taking you down to the blockading fleet at the Cape?
29387Ai n''t I going to sea with Marse Marcy?
29387All in one day?
29387And did you mean to leave me all in the dark and utterly ignorant of the perils that surround us?
29387And do you let them go ashore again when they get ready?
29387And do you reckon that I''m going to give them Newbern fellows the satisfaction of knowing that I saved their goods by sending them to the bottom? 29387 And do you think Beardsley will know the_ Fairy Belle_ in her new dress?"
29387And if you want to know what I have done-- by the way, are you going to Newbern?
29387And it wo n''t be no use for me to go blockade running?
29387And that I shipped because I had to?
29387And that expedition has n''t got here yet?
29387And then do you know what the Missus will say to me?
29387And what answer would you have given if the admiral was aboard of us?
29387And what did he say?
29387And what is the alarming possibility you just spoke of?
29387And what will Shelby and Dillon and the rest of them do to us-- to mother?
29387And who are they?
29387And wo n''t ye tell de Missus, nuther?
29387And you think you will still need a pilot?
29387Any idea what it is?
29387Anybody shot?
29387Anywhere near you?
29387Are Colonel Shelby and the rest of them for the Union?
29387Are all Massachusetts men as great cowards as you are?
29387Are all the rest of you black ones for the Union, too?
29387Are you afraid to speak the words out loud?
29387Are you an able seaman?
29387Are you for the Union?
29387Are you going to discharge me?
29387Are you going to give me a leave of absence?
29387Are you going to stand chinning there while a hundred thousand dollars slips through our fingers?
29387Are you in favor of secession?
29387Are you in the service?
29387Are you not glad to know that I can stay at home now? 29387 Are you ready now to obey orders and tell me what it is?"
29387Are you telling me the truth?
29387But I mean-- you see-- any money?
29387But are you really flying the Confederate colors? 29387 But did n''t you hear the agent say that we ai n''t going to have any war?
29387But do n''t you know that this game of deception ca n''t last forever? 29387 But have you never read how lawless all soldiers are?"
29387But he will follow in our wake, wo n''t he?
29387But how are you going to get to it? 29387 But how can I stay at home?"
29387But if you were working up anything, why did n''t you take me into your confidence?
29387But suppose Uncle Sam wo n''t give her up?
29387But suppose the Yankees come here and take a look at it; then what?
29387But suppose we are captured after all your precautions; what then?
29387But suppose we should be seen by some one on shore who happened to have a strong spy- glass in his hand? 29387 But they''ll get my schooner, wo n''t they?"
29387But what business-- what right has he with it?
29387But what has England got against the United States, anyway?
29387But what has become of the two ship- keepers?
29387But what will the Union men in the settlement think and do about it?
29387But what will the hands say when they miss him?
29387But what would we do?
29387But when you brought those things down here and piloted that vessel through the blockade, did n''t you violate the laws of your country? 29387 But, Marcy, what else could you have done?
29387But, after all, what difference does it make? 29387 But-- you''re fur Jeff Davis, ai n''t you?"
29387Ca n''t you see it for yourself from what I have told you?
29387Ca n''t you see it there in the bow?
29387Can you make her out?
29387Can you prove that she brought any money back with her?
29387Did Gifford say anything about the money-- the thirty thousand dollars in gold you have hidden in the cellar wall?
29387Did Gifford say, in so many words, that you were known to have money in the house?
29387Did anybody ever hear of such luck? 29387 Did n''t they lick old England twice, and ai n''t the Yankee flag the only one to which a British army ever surrendered?
29387Did n''t we always say the Northern people had no business alongside of us? 29387 Did n''t you have the revolver you took from the captured sailor in your pocket?"
29387Did n''t you understand that we do n''t want any Abolitionists aboard of us this trip?
29387Did she find it again? 29387 Did what?"
29387Did you have a fight with one of the blockaders?
29387Did you hear any talk of an ironclad that is being built in the river a few miles above Newbern?
29387Did you notice that he would not sit where I wanted him to?
29387Did you really think that nine Yankee sailors would permit five traitors to work their sweet will on them?
29387Did you remark that you would have to stop at Beardsley''s? 29387 Did you say anything to Hanson about it?"
29387Did you scare them away?
29387Did you see any of them?
29387Did you take out a venture?
29387Did, hey?
29387Do I answer his description?
29387Do I know any of those Union men?
29387Do n''t I done tol''you dat I did n''t took it?
29387Do n''t you expect to find some of them about Hatteras?
29387Do n''t you think I ought to have a little of this sidewalk?
29387Do the neighbors know it?
29387Do you imagine that I would have done such a thing if I had been in a position to refuse?
29387Do you know anything about this little blockade- runner that your launch is watching for?
29387Do you know what become of her crew?
29387Do you know what you''ve went and done, you thieving nigger?
29387Do you make her out?
29387Do you stick to that story?
29387Do you take me for a dunce?
29387Do you think I could get on with Captain Beardsley?
29387Do you think of enlisting on one of the blockading fleet?
29387Do you think that would have been just to me? 29387 Does he say whether or not the_ Hollins_ has been sold yet?"
29387Does n''t that prove that the overseer is not the only spy there is on the place?
29387Glass, ai n''t they?
29387Had to take it on the sly, did you? 29387 Has there been another fight?"
29387Have n''t I often heard you boast of the_ Fairy Belle''s_ sea- going qualities? 29387 Have n''t I told you that I do n''t know how the thing will look when it gets ready to go to work?
29387Have the hands all run away? 29387 Have you heard anything?"
29387Have you received some reliable news at last?
29387He did n''t run out of Hatteras, of course?
29387Hide in the swamps? 29387 How did it come out?
29387How did the papers get them, seeing that all telegraphic communication with the North is cut off?
29387How did you break it?
29387How did you clear at the custom house?
29387How do we know but what there are a dozen or more steam launches, like the one we''ve just left astern, loafing about in the Sound waiting for us? 29387 How do you perform that ceremony anyhow?"
29387How long did it take you to make the capture?
29387How long do you suppose Uncle Sam will allow such-- such work to be kept up?
29387How long does your leave of absence extend?
29387How long have you had those good clothes of yours?
29387How would it do to sew them up in a bed- quilt?
29387How you reckon a pore niggah know who done it? 29387 I did it to keep up appearances; and has n''t Marcy done the same thing and with your consent?
29387I do n''t reckon it''ll do any harm to tell you-- but ai n''t there anybody to listen? 29387 I know it; and ca n''t you see that hoisting the rebel rag will help both of us?
29387If Colonel Shelby and the rest knew that there are two Union flags somewhere among these bedclothes, how long do you suppose this house would stand? 29387 If she had done that three weeks ago would n''t I have brought that flag down with a jerk?"
29387If that is what he wants, why did n''t he pay me off while we were in Newbern?
29387If the ships have n''t even sailed yet, why do you raise such a row over a Confederate victory that is not won?
29387If you wanted to write to this Captain Beardsley you would address him at Newbern, would n''t you? 29387 Is Captain Beardsley about to turn wrecker?"
29387Is it a fact that you are afraid to converse in ordinary tones in your own house?
29387Is that a fact, Marcy? 29387 Is that so?
29387Is that so?
29387Is that you, Hanson?
29387Is your patriotism on the wane?
29387Is_ that_ all he said to you?
29387It will close Hatteras against blockade- runners, will it not?
29387It will not be necessary for my brother to lie alongside all night, will it, sir?
29387It''s fun to have a broken arm, is it?
29387Jack, what in the name of sense are you up to now?
29387Jack,he faltered,"where did you get it?"
29387Jack,said Marcy, suddenly,"what is it that has been taking you out of the house so much of nights during the last two weeks?
29387Julius, you stay below till I tell you to come up, do you hear? 29387 Julius,"said he impressively,"do you know what will happen to you if you fail to prove the truth of this most remarkable tale?
29387Kelsey did n''t say nothing to get you and your maw down on me, did he?
29387Kelsey told you I was Union, did n''t he? 29387 Look here, my lad,"said he, in a tone that was as offensive as his manner,"you are strong and able- bodied, are you not?"
29387Look here, nigger,replied Morris, straightening up as quickly as a jack in the box,"who you calling''Say''?
29387May I make bold to inquire if you have any papers aboard that you can spare?
29387Mention my name?
29387Not much; but you could n''t expect us to keep up that thank- ye business forever, could you? 29387 Now that you have had a chance to sleep on it, what do you think of the proposition I made you last night?"
29387Now we shall be free from his-- eh? 29387 Now who is it that carries news to him from the house?
29387Now will somebody tell me what that old villain wants of a pilot?
29387Now, I would like to ask you one question: You have money enough of your own to load this vessel, have you not?
29387Now, where''s that good- looking son of mine who fired the lucky shot that tumbled that Yankee officer overboard? 29387 Of course the skipper will run her through without any aid from me, as he did before, and so-- what in the world is that?
29387Out where?
29387Rodney is full of enthusiasm, is n''t he?
29387Say anything bad about us?
29387Say, Mistah Morris, we uns is all Union, ai n''t we?
29387Scared out, are you?
29387Seen anything of that blockade- runner since we left?
29387Seventeen hundred dollars and better will keep your folks in grub and clothes for quite a spell, wo n''t it?
29387Shall we give him an answer from one of the howitzers, sir?
29387She did; but what was the reason she sent them troops over here?
29387She has always been friendly to us, and did n''t she send troops here during our Revolutionary war to help us whip the English?
29387She is coming straight for us, ai n''t she?
29387So you take the papers, do you?
29387Some people around here say that I am for the Union?
29387Suppose I had had a mob for visitors while you were at sea? 29387 Suppose some one should watch us and dig it up as soon as we went away?"
29387That''s one point gained, but wo n''t mother be frightened when she hears of it?
29387That''s so; how could you? 29387 The United States supply steamer_ Adelaide._ What are you doing a hundred miles eastward of your course, and showing no lights?"
29387The Yankees do n''t come of fighting stock, like we Southern gentlemen do; but if a war should come, I suppose your folks are well fixed for it?
29387The blockade- runner_ Hattie._ She used to be the privateer_ Osprey._"Were you one of the brave fellows who captured the_ Mary Hollins_?
29387The manner?
29387Then the result of the fight at Bull Run did n''t frighten or discourage them?
29387Then what does he want of you?
29387Then you have never smelled powder or heard the noise of the enemy''s guns?
29387To what ports?
29387Was anybody hurt by that shell?
29387Was it because she had any love for republican-- republican-- ah-- er-- institutions? 29387 Was n''t you going to steal it?
29387Was that all Kelsey said to you?
29387We do n''t own this town, do we?
29387Well, if he is, what is that Confederate flag doing in the house?
29387Well, if we are we''ll lose our vessel and be sent to jail; but we''ll not be treated as pirates, do n''t you see? 29387 Well, the money I''ve got I''m sure of, am I not?"
29387Well, then, why do n''t you hold in toward Hatteras, where you will be safe? 29387 Well, there, you did come back, did n''t yon?"
29387Well, what of it? 29387 Well, what of it?
29387Well, you know it to be a fact, do n''t you? 29387 Were they in the fight at Bull Run?"
29387Were you much hurt?
29387Wha-- wha''you doing da''? 29387 Wha-- what thing, Marse Hanson?"
29387What are you about, there?
29387What are you doing there, you imp of darkness?
29387What are you going to do?
29387What are you standing there gaping at, Tierney? 29387 What can we do?
29387What did I tell you, Morgan?
29387What did he do, and why will the papers wait until he returns before saying anything about it?
29387What did you buy?
29387What did you intend to do with them?
29387What do Colonel Shelby and the rest want me to do?
29387What do ye mean by them movements?
29387What do you know?
29387What do you mean by neutral waters?
29387What do you mean? 29387 What do you reckon these yer things is scattered round''mongst this gold?"
29387What do you think of it?
29387What else did yon expect me to do? 29387 What folks?
29387What for you want dat flag now? 29387 What for?"
29387What for?
29387What has ever happened here to give this lonely island a place in history?
29387What have those things to do with mother''s breastpin?
29387What have you done with that Union flag, Julius?
29387What in the name of sense did I go and speak to him about them cigars for?
29387What in the name of wonder can that worthless man want with me?
29387What in the world is the matter here?
29387What induced you to get so much?
29387What is she, Jack?
29387What is this new notion you have taken into your head all of a sudden?
29387What man?
29387What money?
29387What object could I have in denying it? 29387 What of it?"
29387What port will you run out of?
29387What schooner is that?
29387What schooner is this and where are you going?
29387What shall I do with these varmints?
29387What sort of a looking craft was she?
29387What was in''em?
29387What was you going to deserve?
29387What will mother think?
29387What''s happened to you?
29387What''s in that bottle?
29387What''s that you''ve got there?
29387What''s the matter with your hand?
29387What''s the matter?
29387What''s the meaning of that?
29387What''s the meaning of this?
29387What''s the reason I wo n''t? 29387 What''s the reason we have n''t?
29387What''s the use of being so mean just because you happen to possess the power?
29387What''s to do?
29387When you join the blockading fleet and the neighbors ask me where you are, what shall I tell them?
29387Where are my dockyments to prove that I am an honest trader? 29387 Where are the ship- keepers?"
29387Where away?
29387Where did it take place and how much of a fight was it?
29387Where is it going to come off and how do you happen to know so much about it?
29387Where will Hanson be on that particular morning?
29387Where''s that?
29387Where''s the ship for the long boat to come from?
29387Where''s your proof?
29387Who are you?
29387Who brought these reports?
29387Who cares for advice or sympathy?
29387Who cares if he does so long as he do n''t sight us? 29387 Who cares if they do?
29387Who did it?
29387Who fired that shot? 29387 Who is at the bottom of it this time?"
29387Who is it?
29387Who is she? 29387 Who knocked you down?"
29387Who''s going to keep them posted? 29387 Who''s there?"
29387Why are you?
29387Why can he not permit you to stay at home in peace, as he knows I want you to do? 29387 Why did n''t the other vessels save them?"
29387Why did n''t you kick him off the place as soon as you found out that he could not be trusted?
29387Why do n''t you pitch in and get one? 29387 Why do they hope for any such bad luck as that?"
29387Why do you keep him, then?
29387Why should anybody want to injure me?
29387Why wo n''t she hear it?
29387Why, Captain, how is this?
29387Why, do n''t I tell you that we''ve got''em licked already? 29387 Why, man alive,"Beardsley almost shouted,"do n''t I risk my schooner?
29387Why, what is there to hinder you from taking me down to the fleet?
29387Wo n''t you come down and drink a cup of coffee and eat an orange?
29387Ye-- ye do n''t believe it?
29387You are Mr. Jack''s brother, ai n''t you?
29387You are Union, are you not?
29387You can go forward and lookout for the buoys, ca n''t you? 29387 You did n''t see anything of those privateers, did you?"
29387You do n''t mean to say that you_ did n''t_ act upon his advice?
29387You do, hey? 29387 You do?"
29387You heared that I was a traitor?
29387You see he''s got a bad arm, do n''t you? 29387 You will go with him, I suppose?"
29387You wo n''t? 29387 You''re quite sure you''re not the fellow?"
29387You''re sure she is n''t a cruiser?
29387_ You_ did?
29387After he thought he had inflicted sufficient torture upon the timid fellow, the Confederate put up his weapon and demanded:"What State are you from?"
29387Ai n''t that a pretty looking arm for a white boy to carry around with him?
29387And as for Jack-- did he know that the_ West Wind_ was a smuggler when he joined her in Boston?"
29387And as to who I am-- will you be kind enough to run your eye over these?
29387And now that I have got here and had the talk-- what would you do if you were in my place?
29387And sail under a lie?"
29387And then he added in a lower tone, addressing himself to Marcy, who stood near,"That would be a bright idea, would n''t it?
29387And then what would they do to me?"
29387And what did Shelby say?"
29387And what will you say to them?
29387And when I get you into the field,"he added, shaking his riding- whip at the culprit,"wo n''t I see that you handle them hoes lively?
29387Are they soldiers?"
29387Been in a fight?"
29387Bull Run?"
29387But are you two really in the service?"
29387But do n''t it beat you how things get around?
29387But is there no way in which that villain Hanson can be got rid of?"
29387But suppose I take you down to the fleet and the Yankees wo n''t let me come back?
29387But what could he do when there was n''t any news?
29387But what else can we do?
29387But what is a venture, anyway?"
29387But what was the object of the plot?
29387But you did n''t say anything about his forcing Marcy into the rebel service, did you?
29387But, Jack, what did you mean when you told me that you were a homeless, friendless smuggler?"
29387But, in the first place, what was Bose barking at while I was gone?
29387By the way, did you find your breastpin?"
29387By the way, what did the officer of the deck mean when he said that the paymaster was asleep as well as the doctor?
29387By the way, what was done with the cargo that was intended for that house in Havana?"
29387Ca n''t we do nothing to give her the slip?
29387Can you and the moke get along by yourselves?"
29387Could it be that there was a cruiser off there bearing down upon them?
29387Could they be the same men who had so valiantly fired into that unarmed brig a short half hour before?
29387Did Captain Beardsley send any word to either of us?"
29387Did Hanson give it up?"
29387Did Shelby ask after Jack and me?"
29387Did he make much, do you reckon?"
29387Did n''t I do my duty faithfully?"
29387Did n''t I say you could have it any minute you had a mind to call for it?"
29387Did n''t he join that privateer and run the risk of being captured or killed by the Yankees because you and he thought it policy for him to do so?
29387Did the hands seem to be very badly frightened over Hanson''s disappearance?"
29387Did you not render yourself liable to arrest and imprisonment?"
29387Did you speak to him about taking me as one of his crew?"
29387Do I understand that you take the schooner out of our hands?"
29387Do n''t you reckon she will?"
29387Do n''t you think you had better destroy them while you have them in mind?"
29387Do the Yankees put striped clothes on their prisoners when they shove''em into jail, I wonder?"
29387Do you reckon I''m going to run out of Hatteras in the face of all the war ships that are fooling around here?
29387Do you see those long black streaks on each side?
29387Do you still think he wants to test your loyalty to the South?"
29387Do you want to know what this is?"
29387Every one of the men who came here that night were your friends and mine, and they----""But who were they?"
29387Going get''nother oberseer, Marse Marcy?"
29387Had some one crept along the hall and listened at the key- hole in the hope of hearing some of their conversation?
29387Has Kelsey shown his ugly face here since I went away, or have you heard anything from those''secret enemies''that Wat Gifford spoke of?
29387Has Wat Gifford been here since I went to sea?
29387Have n''t I told it to ye already?"
29387Have things come to such a pass that we dare not talk in our ordinary tones in our own house, but must carry on our conversation in whispers?"
29387He did n''t waste much time in going, did he?
29387He was giving aid and comfort to_ me_, do n''t you see?
29387He''ll keep on running the blockade until he is captured, and what if I should chance to be aboard the schooner when that happens?"
29387How could we live without it?"
29387How do you do?"
29387How has Hanson behaved himself?"
29387How much farther have we to go?"
29387How will they feel when they see our President sitting in the White House, dictating terms of peace to them?
29387How would we run the line if we did?
29387How''s everybody to home?"
29387I am to have a hundred dollars to spend here, am I not?"
29387I can travel on the cars, I suppose?"
29387I certainly do not want to, but how shall I get out of it?"
29387I do n''t care now what Hanson told you, for I do n''t suppose there was a word of truth in it; but what did you think when you spoke to him?"
29387I reckon that would be my way if I was master of the_ Hattie._"But what good would that do?"
29387I reckon you know that Mister Marcy is coming home from school one of those days, do n''t you?
29387I reckon you''ve got right smart of a lot, ai n''t you?"
29387I wonder if Shelby and Dillon know it?"
29387I wonder if he thinks I am foolish enough to open and read them?
29387If a couple of them got near enough together to whisper a few words to each other, he would call out roughly:"What are you about, there?
29387If she had n''t been warned by somebody, what was the reason she began dodging the minute she saw us?
29387If you want to do the fair thing by me, why do you advise me to put my money into a venture, when you are afraid to put in a dollar for yourself?"
29387Is Jack at the bottom of this strange affair?"
29387Is he a Newbern man?"
29387Is it a fracture of the humerus, I wonder?"
29387Is it not dreadful?"
29387Is that you?"
29387Is there any one on the road who will be likely to see me if I come out?
29387Is you Union?"
29387It was a signal of some sort, but who made it, and why should the visitor, whoever he might be, seek to arouse him without disturbing his mother?
29387It''s nothing bad, I hope?"
29387Jack, and make yourself rich by running the blockade?"
29387Jack?"
29387Keep out of sight?"
29387No?
29387Now do n''t you wish you had took my advice and brought out a venture?"
29387Now that the Yankees have got a foothold on the coast, what is there to hinder them from spreading all over the country?
29387Now what difference does it make to them whether mother has money or not, unless they mean to try to take it from her?"
29387Now what does he mean by that?"
29387Now where is it?
29387Now, how is everything about home?
29387Now, what''s to be done?
29387Now, will you give your word of honor that you will behave yourselves as long as you stay aboard of me?"
29387Pretty good acting; do n''t you think so?"
29387See any Union folks while you was to home?"
29387See any signs of a freshening anywhere?"
29387See?
29387See?"
29387See?"
29387Seen anything suspicious?
29387Shelby was sort of civil to you, was n''t he?
29387So he thinks something is going to happen to me, does he?
29387Suppose they should come here, and some Union man should tell them that we hoisted the first rebel flag that was seen in the settlement-- then what?"
29387That letter for me?
29387The boarding officer would very naturally inquire:''What are you doing out here so near the blockading fleet?''
29387The doors and windows were wide open, but where were the house servants that they were not singing at their work?
29387The rest belongs to the captain of the_ Hollins._""Do you still cling to the hope that you will some day meet him again?"
29387Then aloud he said:"Do you know the names of those schooners?
29387Then if he comes in himself that will make two, wo n''t it?
29387Then what?"
29387They didn''t-- didn''t----""Kill him as they ought to have done?"
29387Through the overseer?"
29387To his great surprise there was not even a pickaninny on the bank to say,"Howdy, Marse Marcy?"
29387UNION OR CONFEDERATE-- WHICH?
29387UNION OR CONFEDERATE-- WHICH?
29387Was he much hurted?
29387Was he to understand that Beardsley had made up his mind to get rid of him in some way?
29387Was it Hanson?"
29387Was it much of a fight?"
29387Well, suppose I play that I am as good a Confederate as any of the people hereabouts; what then?
29387Were the Grays Union or Confederate?
29387Were you shot?"
29387Wha''dat white stuff for?"
29387What are you about?"
29387What battle was it that gained us our independence?"
29387What brought you down here, and why did you come in that sneaking way?
29387What color is the hull of the_ Fairy Belle_?"
29387What did the old man say about it?"
29387What did you do with him?"
29387What do ye say to_ that?_""I say that they had better attend to their own business and let me attend to mine,"answered Marcy.
29387What do you advise?"
29387What do you know about it?"
29387What do you say if we make a straight run for our port?
29387What do you say?"
29387What do you say?"
29387What do you think about it?"
29387What do you think of that?"
29387What do you think these Union men did with the overseer?
29387What good would it do as long as the servants know you are here?
29387What has the paymaster to do with swearing him in?"
29387What is she?"
29387What is this I see?
29387What made you so sly about it?
29387What sort of a Yankee do you reckon I''d make, Marcy?
29387What vessel do you belong to?"
29387What wages do you get?"
29387What was it you read to us from that Mobile paper you brought aboard at Rio-- that one Southern gentleman is as good as five Northern mudsills?
29387What you going to do with it?"
29387What you know''bout politicians?
29387What you sneering at me for?"
29387What''s her name and where does she hail from?"
29387What''s the Missus anyway?"
29387What''s the news from Newbern?"
29387What''s the news?"
29387What''s your cargo, where from, and whither bound?"
29387When I leave for the blockading fleet they will want to know where I have gone, wo n''t they?
29387When do you sail?"
29387When he handed them back, all he had to say was:"So you have had some experience with that pirate, Semmes, have you?
29387When the schooner was clear of the Inlet, Beardsley gave the boy a wink as if to say,"I did take her through, did n''t I?"
29387Where are you hurt, Captain?"
29387Where did you get the flag, if it is a fair question?"
29387Where do they expect to get their information?
29387Where is Beardsley now?"
29387Where is everybody?
29387Where is it?"
29387Where''s the overseer?"
29387Where''s the_ Fairy Belle?_""Great Scott!"
29387Which whipped?"
29387Who are you?"
29387Who are you?"
29387Who said I was?"
29387Why ca n''t you come down and join us?"
29387Why did n''t she show up when we had them howitzers aboard?
29387Why do n''t you prove your loyalty to the South by shouldering a musket and going into the army?"
29387Why do n''t you take the old one?
29387Why is the place so quiet?"
29387Why wo n''t they?"
29387Would n''t I find myself in a fix when I got back?"
29387Would n''t they take pains to find out where the schooner belonged, and who her owner was?
29387Would you like to take out a venture?"
29387You are afraid of the neighbors, are you?
29387You do n''t mean to say you are sorry he has gone, do you?"
29387You have heard Aunt Mandy tell her pickaninnies what awful fellows the Yankees are, have you not?
29387You see it was this- a- way----""I suppose I may go ashore now and hunt up a surgeon, may I not?"
29387You was n''t touched, was you?
29387You''re Union, ai n''t you?"
29387You''ve heard of the_ Osprey_, have n''t you?
29387ejaculated Marcy"Do you expect me to take you out on her?"
29387exclaimed Mrs. Gray,"how could you do it?
29387said he, as if the thought had just come to him,"what do you think of your good fortune?
29387what am I saying?
29387whispered Marcy angrily;"ca n''t you see that you are drawing the attention of all the people on the platform by your loud talking?
29387why do you say that?"
73Ah, what yeh talkin''about? 73 Are we, sure''nough?
73Are yeh all right, Fleming? 73 As far as you could?
73Charge? 73 Charge?
73Charge?
73Cross there?
73D''yeh think so?
73Did n''t I tell yeh we''d come aroun''in behint''em? 73 Did you ever think you might run yourself, Jim?"
73Eh?
73Fill mine, will yeh?
73Goin''home now, boys?
73Going to be a battle, sure, is there, Jim?
73Good Lord, what''s th''matter with me?
73Hasbrouck? 73 Heard what?"
73How do you know you wo n''t run when the time comes?
73How do you think the reg''ment''ll do?
73I was allus a good friend t''yeh, wa''n''t I, Henry? 73 I wonner where he got''is stren''th from?
73Leave me be, ca n''t yeh? 73 Oh, here, now, boys, what''s th''use?"
73Run?
73Say, make way there, ca n''t yeh? 73 So?"
73Something tells me--"What?
73Sure-- will yeh, Henry?
73That you, Henry?
73The brigadier said he never saw a new reg''ment fight the way we fought yestirday, did n''t he? 73 Think any of the boys''ll run?"
73Think m''leg is made of iron? 73 Was it warm out there, sonny?"
73Was pretty good fight, wa''n''t it?
73Was pretty good fight, wa''n''t it?
73Was pretty good fight, wa''n''t it?
73We ARE mule drivers, are we?
73Well, Henry, ol''man, how do yeh feel this mornin''?
73Well, Henry,he said,"what d''yeh think th''chances are?
73Well, do n''t we fight like the devil? 73 Well, he was a jim- dandy, wa''n''t''e?"
73Well, that was n''t very far, was it?
73Well, then, what did they march us out here for?
73Well, what now, I wonder?
73Well, why do n''t they support us? 73 What reg''ment do yeh b''long teh?
73What th''thunder-- we-- skedaddlin''this way fer?
73What yeh comin''back fer?
73What yeh goin''t''sleep in? 73 What''s the matter, Henry?"
73What''s up, Jim?
73What? 73 What?
73What?
73What?
73What?
73What?
73What?
73What?
73Where in hell yeh goin''?
73Where th''hell yeh been?
73Where yeh been, Henry?
73Where yeh goin'', Jim? 73 Where yeh hit, ol''boy?"
73Where yeh hit?
73Who is it? 73 Who yeh talkin''to, Wilson?"
73Who yeh talkin''to? 73 Why did n''t yeh stay there?"
73Why, Jim,he said, in a dazed way,"what''s the matter with you?"
73Why, hello, Henry; is it you? 73 Why-- why, pardner, where yeh goin''?"
73Would I?
73Yeh infernal fool, do n''t yeh know enough t''quit when there ai n''t anything t''shoot at? 73 You ai n''t the bravest man in the world, are you?"
73''At th''head''a th''reg''ment?''
73''Who was th''lad what carried th''flag?''
73An''Jack, he never paid no attention, an''th''feller kept on a- peckin''at his elbow an''sayin'':''Say, where''s th''road t''th''river?''
73An''everybody yelled to''i m:''Hurt, John?
73An''it ai n''t much t''ask, is it?
73An''th''colonel, he ses:''Were they, indeed?
73And the loud soldier''s shrill voice could be heard:"What th''devil they in sich a hurry for?"
73And we did n''t do better than many another reg''ment, did we?
73And, furthermore, how could they kill him who was the chosen of gods and doomed to greatness?
73Are yeh hurt much?''
73As he stood tottering before the rifle barrel, he called out:"Why, hello, Wilson, you-- you here?"
73At last he heard a cheery voice near his shoulder:"Yeh seem t''be in a pretty bad way, boy?"
73Charge?
73D''yeh think we''ll wallop''em?"
73Did n''t I tell yeh so?
73Did n''t the cavalry all start this morning?"
73Did you, b''Gawd?"
73Do n''t we do all that men can?"
73Do yeh feel all right?
73Eh?
73Finally he said:"Well, you do n''t know everything in the world, do you?"
73Got shot?
73He began t''peck at Jack''s elbow, an''he ses:''Say, where''s th''road t''th''river?''
73He could hear the men whisper jerky sentences:"Say-- what''s all this-- about?"
73He imagined the whole regiment saying:"Where''s Henry Fleming?
73He run, did n''t''e?
73He''s up an''gone, ai n''t''e?
73His friend turned his head in some surprise,"Why, what was yeh goin''t''say?"
73How did yeh git''way over here, anyhow?
73How yeh know it is?"
73I''d do it fer you, would n''t I, Henry?"
73I''ve allus been a pretty good feller, ai n''t I?
73If none of the little pieces were wise enough to save themselves from the flurry of death at such a time, why, then, where would be the army?
73Inteh th''fields?
73Is he?
73Jest t''pull me along outer th''road?
73Jim Conklin?"
73Oh, it is?
73Oh, they was, eh?
73One huge man was asking of the sky:"Say, where de plank road?
73One man had a final objection:"How could yeh hear''em talkin''?"
73See that fire?"
73Tell me, wo n''t you, Jim?"
73Th''304th N''York?
73The two infantrymen could hear nothing until finally he asked:"What troops can you spare?"
73There ai n''t nothin''th''matter with yeh, Henry, is there?"
73There, Flemin'', what d''yeh think''a that?
73There, Wilson, m''boy, put that in a letter an''send it hum t''yer mother, hay?
73They made gestures expressive of the sentence:"Ah, what more can we do?"
73Well, then, you ca n''t say it''s th''army''s fault, can you?"
73Well, they did n''t run t''day, did they, hey?
73What are you doing here?"
73What at?
73What do they take us for-- why do n''t they send supports?
73What fer?
73What manner of men were they, anyhow?
73What the dickens is wrong with you?"
73What you thinking about?
73What''s th''good fightin''''mong ourselves?"
73What''s that?
73What?
73Where is it located?"
73Where is your''n located?"
73Where th''blazes does hi git his stren''th from?"
73Where was yeh?"
73Where you goin''t''sleep?"
73Where you going?
73Where-- where yeh goin''?"
73Who are you, anyhow?
73Who is it?"
73Why ca n''t somebody send us supports?"
73Why did n''t yeh say so first?
73Why do n''t they send supports?
73Why in good thunderation ca n''t you be more easy?
73Why, what corps is that in?
73Yeh th''derndest sentinel-- why-- hello, Henry, you here?
73Your reg''ment is a long way from here, ai n''t it?
73ai n''t it hot, hey?"
73he ses,''by th''way, who was that lad what carried th''flag?''
5696An''my mammy?
5696And Estralla and Aunt Connie may go to Boston with us?
5696And Estralla and Aunt Connie will go, too; wo n''t they, Father?
5696And so you would not tell, or complain about your schoolmates?
5696And you forgive me for going?
5696Are you Estralla?
5696Are you going to ask your little friends to go out in the Butterfly this afternoon?
5696But wo n''t their mothers feel dreadfully to let them go?
5696Ca n''t we buy the lockets to- day, Mother?
5696Ca n''t we go to Fort Moultrie right away?
5696Could n''t I buy Estralla and then make her free? 5696 Could we?
5696Did Miss Sylvia say anything to any of you young ladies about leaving the grounds?
5696Did you not hear the bells ringing and the military music yesterday? 5696 Did you tell Captain Carleton that reinforcements were coming to the aid of Fort Sumter?"
5696Do I have to apologize for speaking the truth?
5696Do I have to go to Miss Patten''s school, Mother?
5696Do n''t you ever play dolls?
5696Do you know the way back, Estralla?
5696Do you, Missy? 5696 Do you?
5696Do''s yo''want anyt''ing else, Missy Flora?
5696Estralla, if you were earning wages for Mr. Robert Waite would he let you stay here?
5696Father, are you sure''Yankee''does n''t mean anything beside''American''?
5696Father, when may we go to Fort Moultrie again?
5696For Estralla? 5696 Has n''t she come back with Estralla?
5696Has she gone to the boat?
5696He is n''t coming to take back Estralla, is he?
5696How can anybody''own''anybody else, even if their skin is black?
5696How dare you grab me like this?
5696How did you know where your little mistress was?
5696I knew it all the time,said Grace slowly,"and I told Sylvia it was you; did n''t I, Sylvia?"
5696I might hide her,she thought; but what place would be secure?
5696I suppose you girls are looking forward to the corn- shucking to- night?
5696If you could send a message to Captain Carleton what would you say?
5696If you please, Miss Rosalie, what does''abolitionist''mean?
5696Is it? 5696 Is n''t Miss Rosalie lovely,"Sylvia whispered as she and Grace moved to their seats,"and does n''t she wear pretty clothes?"
5696Is that the way the big ships know how to find their harbors?
5696Is there one for South Carolina?
5696Is you, Missy?
5696It is n''t that Estralla is going to be sold right away, is it?
5696May I steer?
5696My dear girl, who would question the right of South Carolina to control all forts on her territory? 5696 Oh, Sylvia, do you suppose there really is a ghost?"
5696Oh, can I do something like that?
5696Oh, let the child come,Mr. Fulton responded;"how old is she?"
5696Running off, are you? 5696 Shall I tell her, Flora?"
5696Shall I tell my mammy?
5696That is twice you have been to Fort Sumter without meaning to go, is n''t it?
5696Then I''ll be your maid, wo n''t I, Missy Sylvia?
5696Then ca n''t Captain Carleton go north with us?
5696Truly, Father? 5696 W''y didn''yo''say dat firs''place?
5696WHERE IS SYLVIA?
5696Wall, now, whose darky are you?
5696Wat dat clock say?
5696Wat yo''mammy say''bout my bein''yo''maid?
5696Wat''s de matter, Missy? 5696 We will always be friends, wo n''t we, Sylvia?"
5696We will go down street and buy the lockets to- morrow morning, wo n''t we, Mother?
5696Well, Estralla, suppose Miss Sylvia came to try and help give you your freedom?
5696Well, little girl, whom do you wish to see?
5696Well, then why did n''t she?
5696Well, what of that?
5696Wha''on earth did you get you''pink dress? 5696 Whar on airth you been?
5696Whar''is Missy Sylvia?
5696What about Miss Flora and her ghost now?
5696What are you so sober about, Sylvia?
5696What are you thinking of, Estralla?
5696What can be in Mammy''s basket, I wonder?
5696What do you say to becoming a teacher yourself, Sylvia dear?
5696What does it mean to wear one?
5696What for?
5696What is a''corn- shucking''?
5696What is it, Grace?
5696What is the matter, Father?
5696What is your name?
5696What is your question, Sylvia?
5696What made you undertake such a thing, Sylvia?
5696What makes your mammy look so sober, Flora?
5696What on earth were you out in that boat for?
5696What''s an abbylitionzist?
5696What''s that noise?
5696What''s that? 5696 What''s that?"
5696What''s the matter, Estralla?
5696What?
5696When I grow up?
5696When shall we go to Boston?
5696Where are they taking us?
5696Where is Sylvia?
5696Where is Sylvia?
5696Where were you, Estralla, when I came down- stairs?
5696Where?
5696Who would do our work then?
5696Whose fort is this?
5696Why do you want to be so hateful, Elinor?
5696Why not make the doll a fine dress and mantle?
5696Why, Flora was never ill in her life,declared Ralph;"what''s the matter?"
5696Why, what has happened?
5696Will the President''s ships come soon, Father?
5696Will you make me a fine big cake, Aunt Connie?
5696Will you''mammy scold you''bout dat pitcher?
5696Will you, Missy? 5696 Wo n''t Grandma be surprised to see them?"
5696Wo n''t I see Mrs. Carleton again?
5696Wo n''t you be seated, young lady?
5696Would he hire me out, Missy?
5696Would they really, Miss Patten?
5696Yas, Missy; but what for do you wanter go?
5696You''ll come, wo n''t you, Sylvia?
5696You''se the little Yankee missy, ai n''t you?
5696Ai n''t dar a boat, like what I said?
5696An''don''yo''know all''bout a boat?
5696An''whar''s yo''missy?"
5696And so you are a little Yankee girl?
5696And, if you please, Mr. Waite, would you let me pay you wages for Estralla?"
5696Are you willing to undertake it?"
5696Beside that, had not Flora taken off the blue cockade so that Sylvia would not be reminded of the trouble at school?
5696But how could they take our forts?"
5696But perhaps you can tell me who Estralla is?"
5696But when the little girl saw the things spread out on Sylvia''s bed she exclaimed aloud:"Does you mean, Missy, dat I''se to pick out somethin''?
5696But who''s a- gwine to pay wages for a pickaninny like me?
5696But, w''at you wan''it fer?"
5696CHAPTER XV"WHERE IS SYLVIA?"
5696CHAPTER XX"TWO LITTLE DARKY GIRLS""When will Mr. Lincoln be President?"
5696Ca n''t Aunt Connie and Estralla go with us?"
5696Ca n''t you have a doll of your own?"
5696Ca n''t you see?"
5696Can you sing the song?"
5696Can you, Estralla?"
5696Carleton?"
5696Did Missy give it to you?
5696Did you know Uncle Robert is going to sell Estralla?"
5696Do you suppose you can turn the pony?"
5696Doane?"
5696FORT SUMTER IS FIRED UPON CHAPTER I SYLVIA"Your name is in a song, is n''t it?"
5696Flora, do you really mean it?"
5696Had anything happened here at school to make you so unhappy that you did not want to stay?"
5696Has n''t she done well?
5696How will you like that?"
5696How you gwine to stop it, Missy?"
5696I ai n''t gwine to be sold, be I?"
5696I may, may n''t I, Mother?"
5696Is it Sylvia Fulton?"
5696Oh, Estralla, could we really?"
5696Please whar''is my missy?"
5696Secret?"
5696She had promised not to tell of the letter, and what reason could she give for creeping out of the house at that hour?
5696She heard her father say that he feared that South Carolina would secede from the United States, and she repeated the word aloud:"''Secede''?
5696Suppose the porch window was fastened?
5696Sylvia wondered to herself if the letter she had carried to Mr. Doane might not be a message to the President?
5696There was a little silence, and then Mr. Waite took a seat near his little visitor and said:"Let me see; is not your name in a song?
5696Truly?
5696Truly?"
5696Unless there was a sail or a pair of oars the boat would be of little use, and even with oars and sail could she guide the boat safely to Charleston?
5696W''at Uncle Pete do w''en he fin''s de boat gone?"
5696Was it possible that Elinor dared defy Miss Patten?
5696Wat I tells yo''?
5696Wat is de matter?"
5696Wat yo''mammy gwine to think w''en you ai n''t home to your dinner?"
5696Wat yo''reckon Massa Robert gwine to say?"
5696Wat you lettin''that darky dress up in you''clo''es fer, Missy Sylvia?"
5696What can I do?"
5696What could she say?
5696What do you mean?"
5696What does that mean?"
5696What has happened?"
5696What is the matter?"
5696What was Miss Rosalie talking about, they wondered, and what did Grace Waite mean about anybody"taking"Fort Sumter or Fort Moultrie?
5696What were you up here for, anyway?"
5696What will she do when Sylvia goes north?"
5696What will we do?"
5696What would become of Estralla?
5696What you doin''of way off here?"
5696What''s a''sovereign''?"
5696What''s this?"
5696Where bound?"
5696Where is Sylvia?"
5696Where is my father?"
5696Why do n''t they fight against slavery?"
5696Will you do whatever I tell you?"
5696Wo n''t de Yankees come and set us free, Missy?"
5696You did n''t think they were going to move the forts to Washington, did you?"
5696You do n''t mean I kin KEEP that, Missy?"
5696You study history, do n''t you?"
28391A fair trial?
28391A traitor to what?
28391An''did you speak to Toby about the money they say he''s got hid somewheres?
28391An''will you give me the hunderd dollars to hand to Bud?
28391An''will you- uns give me the money?
28391An''would you tell them stories all over agin if you was me?
28391And do n''t you know that he keeps it locked in his bureau?
28391And he tells his foremast hands what he thinks about his neighbors, does he? 28391 And if Marcy should be sent to prison, as he would if he were taken on board an armed schooner, what would become of me?
28391And is that the reason all our old friends have gone back on us, mother and me-- because they think we are for the Union?
28391And joining the privateer was what worked the change?
28391And so you went without it?
28391And this is the way he takes to get his pay, is it? 28391 And what sort of a flag is that up there on Mr. Riley''s office?"
28391And what were you doing outside the grounds at this hour, when you know that such a thing is positively forbidden?
28391And when is it coming off?
28391And will you continue to march and drill under it, now that we have a flag of our own?
28391And will you feel no sorrow for those who lose their property, and perhaps their all, through your efforts to enrich yourself?
28391And will you take her out of harm''s way if a ship of war heaves in sight?
28391And you do n''t call yourself a traitor to your State, I suppose?
28391And you expect us to send the money back by you, do you? 28391 And you think we ought to be hanged?"
28391Any dogs laying around?
28391Are there any with you?
28391Are there many men with him?
28391Are there no Union people at all in this country?
28391Are you going to raise a hundred dollars for Goble?
28391Are you officer of the day?
28391Are you so sorry I''ve come that you are going to cry over it?
28391Are your halliards rove? 28391 Ball cartridges?"
28391Bud Goble mentioned Dick''s name and mine while he was threatening us, did he?
28391But I am liable to leave here at an hour''s notice, and what should I do with it if I did not have time to take it to your cabin? 28391 But can you prove that I gave it to him?"
28391But do n''t you know that this State has n''t joined the Confederacy yet?
28391But how about Rodney and Dick? 28391 But how are we going to get into trouble?
28391But how on earth am I goin''to get grub when I ai nt got no money to pay for it? 28391 But we need an army to hold possession of our coast defences, do we not?
28391But what are you doing there in the bushes? 28391 But you see it has, do n''t you?
28391By the way, Marcy, you''ve been to school and oughter be posted in such things,--what is a letter of mark- we and reprisal? 28391 Ca n''t some good Southerner sing something that will hit the spot?"
28391Ca n''t ye see for yourself that he''s got the drop?
28391Ca n''t you see for yourself that I have a small crew, and that I must take measures to prevent your men from recapturing the prize? 28391 Can it be a fire?"
28391Can you prove that assertion?
28391Captain Wilson does n''t think they could have got into any trouble, does he?
28391Coerce a sovereign State? 28391 Cole, where is the flag those Taylor girls gave you?
28391Dick, where did you get it?
28391Did Bud say so?
28391Did n''t I say that he and his kind would take advantage of this excitement to get somebody into trouble?
28391Did n''t, hey?
28391Did the colonel say who those fanatics were?
28391Did they do it well and without exciting suspicion?
28391Did you fellows all have passes? 28391 Did you have to buy the guns you intend to put on the schooner?"
28391Did you hit either of them?
28391Do n''t reckon there''ll be any fighting, do you?
28391Do n''t the fish- hawk get her living from the water, and ai nt I going to get mine the same way?
28391Do n''t you know enough to keep still?
28391Do n''t you know that I have roamed the high sea, smelled powder, and helped capture a Yankee vessel? 28391 Do n''t you know that the colonel takes charge of the bunting every night?"
28391Do n''t you know that the long- lost prodigal son has come back? 28391 Do n''t you suppose we knew that?"
28391Do n''t your ears tell you that the fellows are all fighting mad, and that the thing is going to be serious?
28391Do you give credit to a nigger before my face an''eyes, an''then refuse it to a white gentleman?
28391Do you know anything about gunnery?
28391Do you know whether or not the colonel was alone in his room when you sent the orderly in to fetch him out?
28391Do you mean to say that all those prominent men are such ruffians?
28391Do you mean-- are you going to fight about it?
28391Do you really think he had a hand in that affair?
28391Do you see them? 28391 Do you still claim to be neutral?"
28391Do you want company?
28391Does Bud Goble know you''ve got it? 28391 Does he labor under the delusion that he is going to run it up on the tower in the morning?"
28391Does n''t that go to show that Marcy and the chap who answered to his name, as well as the sergeant himself, must be in some sort of a plot?
28391Dog- gone the nigger, why did n''t he keep away a little longer?
28391Done what?
28391Eh? 28391 Eh?"
28391Famblies all well? 28391 G- o do n''t spell Gob, does it?
28391Give it a cheer, why do n''t you?
28391Got any money to pay for''em?
28391Has Rodney anything in common with that villain, Bud Goble?
28391Has that man Tierney been discharged?
28391Has this State gone out?
28391Have n''t I told you time and again that I''m neutral?
28391Have n''t you any sense left? 28391 Have n''t you read our president''s speech?"
28391Have you bargained for any small arms for the schooner?
28391Have you been over to the schooner this morning?
28391Have you forgotten, sir, that you put me under arrest?
28391He did n''t get here, did he?
28391He''s honest, and what more do you want? 28391 How could you when there was n''t nothing to tell, I''d like to know?"
28391How did you cover up the place where you had been digging?
28391How did you get home so quick?
28391How do you know but that some of those who cheered your old rag are Union at heart? 28391 How does it come that you are so well posted, Dick?"
28391How many noses do you want, and what do you want them for?
28391How much?
28391How much?
28391How so?
28391How soon do you start?
28391I have said all you asked me to say, have I not? 28391 I need some sort of an heirloom to hand down to my grandchildren, do n''t I?"
28391I told them I should be true to my colors, no matter what happened, and how have I held to my resolution? 28391 I''ve been home sense noon; ai nt I, old woman?"
28391If I am willing to trust you it''s all right, ai nt it? 28391 If I may presume to ask the question, how does it come that yon are on the ground so early when there are no alarm- bells ringing?
28391If I will give you the halliards, will you promise not to haul the colors down?
28391If Marcy is so devoted to the Union, why does he stay here, flinging his obnoxious doctrines in our faces every chance he gets? 28391 If they was poor boys do you reckon they''d be allowed to hold out agin the''Federacy like they do, an''talk agin it?
28391If they were united?
28391Is n''t it Riley''s house?
28391Is that the way of it? 28391 Is this all silver?
28391It was written by some coward who was afraid to let himself be known, was it? 28391 Jest as if they happened yisterday?"
28391Laws- a- massy, what''s the matter of ye?
28391Look here, old fellow: Could n''t you get up spirit enough to give us a cheer?
28391Make hay while the sun shines, eh?
28391Marcy Gray, are you really a traitor? 28391 Missouri has n''t gone out yet, but she''s going; and in the meantime, what about that flag at the academy?
28391Not the whole school?
28391Now, fellows,said Rodney, as soon as the line had been formed,"who knows a song appropriate to the occasion?
28391Oh, do you?
28391Oh, have n''t you heard? 28391 On the watch, are you?"
28391Or suppose he left his door open and the orderly should chance to look in?
28391Private? 28391 Rodney did n''t come home with you, did he?"
28391Rodney,said he,"is this your manhood?"
28391Say,he exclaimed, when he found his tongue,"what are you up to?"
28391See anything of Bud or Caleb Judson? 28391 See it, do n''t you?"
28391See''em?
28391Seen Marcy during roll- call?
28391So North Carolina is no whit better than the States that have joined the Confederacy, is she?
28391So he has; and if he chooses to trust his vessel in my hands in channels and inlets that he knows nothing about, what have you to say? 28391 So how are we to run it up in place of the Stars and Stripes?"
28391So that''s our flag, is it?
28391So them''s the fellers that fooled me, are they?
28391So you are one of those gallant fellows, are you?
28391Some of the teachers might come in, and how should I account for your presence here?
28391Such a thing as taking the schooner could be done easy enough, and where would you be if it was attempted?
28391Suppose he left somebody in there?
28391Suppose the captain owns that craft, and that it is everything he has in the world to depend on for a living for his family? 28391 That means that you need him this very night, I suppose?"
28391That underground railroad business was a joke on you, was n''t it? 28391 That''s a pretty thing to do, is n''t it now?
28391That''s what Riley says,continued Bud,"an''who knows but the thing we''ve been a- dreadin''is comin''now?
28391The commandant is one traitor, but who are the others?
28391The night is quiet, and the little breeze there is stirring blows toward us from town, does n''t it? 28391 The question is, Is that flag at the academy going to stay up or come down-- which?"
28391Then I may go home?
28391Then Uncle Sam ca n''t find fault with us for going into the business, can he?
28391Then it is n''t of any use for me to say more, I suppose?
28391Then who done it?
28391There ai nt no secesh out on the watah, is there, Marse Marcy?
28391There is no attempt made to''cover''either?
28391They have both lived up to their principles, but how have I lived up to mine?
28391This is a high- handed proceeding, boys,observed one,"and if a shoulder- strap should come in and order us to put these guns back, then what?"
28391Warm times in Charleston the other day, I suppose?
28391Was that the way of it?
28391We could n''t get along without him, do n''t you know we could n''t? 28391 We stepped on their toes, did n''t we?
28391We''ll get a crew undoubtedly; but what sort of men will they be? 28391 Well, Goble, what is the news to- day?"
28391Well, I-- eh?
28391Well, are you quite satisfied with the test you applied to me?
28391Well, neighbor Goble, what do you find to shoot this time of year?
28391Well, now that you have found me what do you purpose doing about it?
28391Well, shall I tell Marcy to keep his distance until he has made up his mind to hoist the right sort of colors?
28391Well, then, what do you want me to say? 28391 Well, then, where''s the meal an''bacon I told you to fetch along when you come home?"
28391Well, what do you expect me to do about it?
28391Well, what of it?
28391Well, what of it?
28391Well, whom are you going to keep-- him or me?
28391Well, you see what the business men of Barrington think of the situation, do n''t you? 28391 Well,"said Caleb, speaking slowly, as if he did not know how to explain his errand;"you mind them Gray an''Graham boys, do n''t ye?"
28391What about them? 28391 What are you doing here, you rebel?"
28391What are you going to do with it?
28391What are you going to do, Marcy?
28391What are you going to do?
28391What did he do that for?
28391What did he do? 28391 What did he hire me for, when he knows that it is in my power to run his schooner hard and fast aground if a ship of war gets after us?"
28391What did he say?
28391What did you put them there for, any way?
28391What do you do that- a- way for?
28391What do you intend to do with your prizes, if you make any?
28391What do you reckon the kurn''ll do to me?
28391What do you reckon your Moster would do to ye if I should take this here docyment to him an''tell him I found you a- readin''of it?
28391What do you say to that, boys? 28391 What do you want to do with it?"
28391What does Bud intend to do with them?
28391What does it look like, any way?
28391What for?
28391What for?
28391What good will it do to ride around to the schooner?
28391What have I got to do with running the schooner?
28391What have I said or done since I came home to lead them to think so?
28391What in the world does Lon Beardsley want here?
28391What is it, and where is it? 28391 What letter?"
28391What made you wuzzle the flag up in that shape?
28391What made you- uns set there like so many bumps on a log when you heard me comin''?
28391What makes you ask the question? 28391 What new nonsense are you up to?"
28391What objection can you have to this place? 28391 What put it into your head?"
28391What sort of a cock- and- bull story is this I hear about Sergeant Gray and Private Graham?
28391What sort of a company have you?
28391What was that man, whose name you mentioned, discharged for?
28391What was the row about this time?
28391What will you do to- morrow morning?
28391What would you do?
28391What would you have done to him if you had got hold of him?
28391What you doing out here?
28391What''s he been up to?
28391What''s in the wind now, do you reckon?
28391What''s in the wind?
28391What''s that to you, and who are you?
28391What''s that you say?
28391What''s the matter of the fule?
28391What''s the matter of ye?
28391What''s the matter with Rodney?
28391What''s the meaning of this, I''d be pleased to know?
28391What''s the next thing on the programme? 28391 What''s up?"
28391What''s up?
28391When did you do it?
28391When did you find it out?
28391When did you get home?
28391When is this insurrection, or whatever you call it, coming off?
28391Where are those Union men now?
28391Where are you, Tierney? 28391 Where away?"
28391Where did Rodney get the secession flag he has been prancing around with ever since he came from town?
28391Where did you get it? 28391 Where did you leave them?"
28391Where in the world have you been?
28391Where was the orderly?
28391Where would we get our goobers if Bud and Silas should burn him out?
28391Where you goin''to get it?
28391Where''s Dinah?
28391Where''s our speech of welcome? 28391 Where''s that boat''s crew?"
28391Which side are you on? 28391 Who are they?"
28391Who cares for that?
28391Who cares? 28391 Who comes there?"
28391Who do you reckon that is?
28391Who gin it to you, an''how did he come by it in the first place?
28391Who going to run away from the Missus, and where he going to run to?
28391Who has threatened any outbreak?
28391Who is it?
28391Who told you that?
28391Who told you that?
28391Who was it?
28391Who wrote that letter?
28391Who wrote that letter?
28391Who''d a thought that a preacher could a had sich an amazin''grip? 28391 Who''ll try these suspected men?
28391Who''s been a- writin''a letter to you?
28391Who''s in for a black eye this time?
28391Who''s me? 28391 Who''s that gentleman"( nodding at Caleb),"and what are you doing in there?"
28391Who''s there?
28391Who? 28391 Who?
28391Who? 28391 Who?
28391Who? 28391 Whom do you mean by us and we?"
28391Why ca n''t you say what you have to say right where you stand?
28391Why did n''t you come out and shoo off them dogs of your''n? 28391 Why did n''t you say as much when you were talking to Mr. Riley?
28391Why did you not stay in the guard- tent when I put you there?
28391Why do n''t you ask us to come in?
28391Why do n''t you draw a bead on him an''make him put that thing down?
28391Why do you ask? 28391 Why do you ask?
28391Why is he?
28391Why is it?
28391Why should he when you come here as a friend to those two prisoners? 28391 Why, did n''t you tell the old man that they would n''t?"
28391Why, what in the name of sense do you want to keep it for?
28391Why, what in the world did I say?
28391Will you fight for the Union?
28391Will you fight?
28391Will you join the army and fight for her?
28391Will you join us in a hurrah for it?
28391Wo nt you trust me?
28391Yes, I kinder thought I would call her the_ Fish- Hawk._"Is n''t that a queer name for a privateer?
28391You ca n''t get him over without alarming the whole school, and how shall I explain matters to the corporal? 28391 You did n''t think it would come, did you?"
28391You do n''t really think they will fight, do you, sir?
28391You do n''t suppose that anything will be done to these suspected men until they have had a fair trial, do you?
28391You do not mean to say that there are traitors in that school?
28391You have n''t any idea who wrote the letter or what else there was in it?
28391You here, Marcy?
28391You know right where he is, I suppose?
28391You remember the John Brown raid, do n''t you?
28391You think a nigger better''n a white man, do ye?
28391You think it was the letter Bud received that put all these things into his head, do you?
28391You will?
28391You wo n''t repeat what has passed between us, of course?
28391You wo n''t take keer on it for de ole niggah?
28391You would n''t go on an expedition like this without one, would you?
28391You would n''t have thought it of him, would you?
28391You''re Jeff Davis men, I reckon, ai nt ye?
28391You? 28391 Young gentlemen, what is the meaning of this new outrage?"
28391_ And_ abolitionists? 28391 _ We?_ Who?"
28391_ We?_ Who?
28391''Member it, do n''t you?"
28391''Pears like this mornin''s work is goin''to turn out all right after all; do n''t it to you?"
28391A dress and a pair of shoes for your old woman?
28391After we rebels get the licking we are bound to get in the end--""If you are so sure of it, why do you favor secession?"
28391An''say, Marse Bud, when I get''em, will you give me dat paper?"
28391And Bud acted upon the advice that letter contained and grabbed the boys, did he?
28391And what has become of all the little Union flags we saw yesterday?"
28391And what is the meaning of those ribbons?"
28391And what would_ I_ do?"
28391Are we not in luck?
28391Are you asleep?"
28391Are you in favor of letting it stay there?"
28391Are you interested in the matter?"
28391Be I goin''to put up with sich an insult?
28391But how will you fare when you get home?
28391But is that our flag up there?
28391But s''pose they wo nt go?"
28391But this is a gun- deck now, ai nt it?"
28391But what are you fellows going to do, and what do you want of me?"
28391But what did he hint at?"
28391But what got it through your head at this late hour?"
28391But what has my politics to do with the position I hold aboard that privateer?"
28391But what is the use of this nonsense?
28391But what''s the difference?
28391But where were the engines?
28391But who are they?"
28391But why did you come here to tell us this?"
28391But would the captain permit them to give Bud a whack or two with the butts of their muskets just to teach him to mind his own business in future?
28391But you are not afraid of him, are you?"
28391But you ca n''t deny that we''ve whipped you once in a fair fight, can you?"
28391By the way, where is Jack?"
28391Captain Beardsley saw the motion and inquired:"Got a pop with you?"
28391Could n''t make''em into something like a horse- shoe, could ye?"
28391Could n''t you get along without wagging your jaw so freely?"
28391Dat paper was gin to me-- oh, laws, what am I sayin''?"
28391Did Bud Goble leap over the counter and wrench the threatening weapon from Mr. Bailey''s grasp with one hand, while he throttled him with the other?
28391Did n''t he answer to his name?
28391Did you fellows levy war against them when you fired upon Sumter?
28391Did you get it?"
28391Did you really have a fight at the academy over the flag?
28391Did your vessel take a new name with her coat of new paint, captain?"
28391Do n''t repeat what you have said to me, will you?"
28391Do n''t you know him any better than that?"
28391Do n''t you know me?"
28391Do n''t you know that the academy is four stories high, and that the tower runs up one story higher?
28391Do n''t you like the looks of''em?"
28391Do you hear any fire- bells ringing?"
28391Do you hear anything from Jack?"
28391Do you know where he is?"
28391Do you want me to take this here_ Trybune_ to your Moster?
28391Do you want to see them?"
28391Does he think the negroes have broken out?"
28391Finally Rosser turned to his staff and said:"You see that officer down there?
28391Going to Nashville after your mail?
28391Good scheme; do n''t you think so?"
28391Good- natured, obedient Dick Graham could be easily controlled, but how about fiery Rodney Gray, angry as he undoubtedly was?
28391Graham is, or_ was_, all right; there''s no discount on him, but--""But what?"
28391Graham, you know where the old flag is, do you not?"
28391Graham?"
28391Has your father written for you yet?"
28391Have you any money?"
28391He had been caught almost in the act of reading a copy of the New York_ Tribune_, and what would Mr. Riley say and do when he heard of it?
28391He would n''t do it if he did not think I would serve him to the best of my ability, would he?
28391He''s got Bud Goble down on him--""Did he and Bud have a squabble sure enough?"
28391Hear me, do n''t you?"
28391How are everything and everybody at home?
28391How are the darkies?"
28391How did he go about it?"
28391How did they use you?"
28391How many of the boys have run away?"
28391How much of it will you get?"
28391How will that do to begin on?"
28391How''s the overseer; Union or secesh?"
28391I am not in the Confederacy, am I?
28391I ca n''t tell them just how I am situated, for suppose the letter should miscarry and fall into the hands of some fellow like Captain Beardsley?
28391I do n''t reckon you see how you could make money two ways outen the job you''ve got now, do you?
28391I reckon you- uns heared that I was workin''for that Committee of Safety, did n''t you?"
28391I suppose you calculate to sweep the sea of everything that carries the Yankee flag, do n''t you?
28391I suppose?"
28391I''ll discharge him as soon as I can get where the schooner is, and tell him the next time he-- But what did he do?
28391If North Carolina goes out, what will you do?"
28391If he was still friendly to the colors, why had he offered to steal them for Rodney Gray?
28391If it is n''t, what is he sneaking around toward the back of the store for?"
28391If that was the case, and the students were ordered out to preserve order, which side would they support?
28391If the gentleman of whom you spoke should attempt any violence, would I submit to it without trying to defend myself?
28391If the occupants had been white folks, Bud would n''t have done that; but who ever heard of a Southern gentleman knocking at a negro''s door?
28391If we did n''t have one, how would we bring the prizes to?"
28391If we will break ranks, will you send the first company, under Judson''s lead, to bring Rodney and Dick to the academy?"
28391If your State secedes, you will go with her, of course?"
28391Is my schooner all right, and has Bose got over the drubbing that big coon gave him last fall?
28391Is that villain Goble to be permitted to abuse them as he pleases?"
28391It seems that those furious threats about secession were not all talk, do n''t it?
28391It was a put- up job, I tell you, and who knows but there may be others of much the same sort hanging over me at this very minute?
28391Look here, Goble,"he added suddenly,"if this State goes out of the Union, will you go with her?"
28391Me, sah?
28391Me, sir?"
28391Me?
28391Me?
28391Me?"
28391My time is wuth a dollar and a quarter a day, an''when I give it all, it looks to me as though I oughter be paid for it; do n''t it to you?"
28391Now what''s to be done?
28391Now, does that letter or commission give protection to the crew of the privateer if they happen to be caught?
28391Now, if that was the case, why did he run right by Elder Bowen''s burning house to come up town?
28391Now, what brought you here?
28391Now, where''ll I find you- uns agin in about an hour so''t we can talk it over?
28391Private Dixon, what are you about?"
28391Say, we licked''em, did n''t we?"
28391Say,"he added, as Tierney came up,"did n''t you leave word with your partner that you had discharged yourself and was n''t never coming back any more?
28391See that flag up there?
28391See?
28391See?"
28391Shall we expect you?"
28391So I am taken for a rebel, am I?
28391So there is where we are going as soon as we can get transportation, and who knows but I may see our old friend Dick Graham?
28391Something wanted?"
28391That outbreak''s comin'', an''who knows but it''ll be here this very night?"
28391That''s me, and that''s why I tell you that when Missouri--""Why do n''t you give me the flag, if you are going to?"
28391The figure discovered him at the same moment, halted abruptly, and said in cautious tones, as if fearful of being overheard:"Who''s there?"
28391The old man says so, does he?"
28391The orderly disappeared through the colonel''s door, but came out a few minutes afterward to report--"What did I tell you?"
28391Then he said to the ship- keeper, in a low tone,"Is Tierney aboard?"
28391Then what are you holding him for?
28391Then why not go into commission at once, while there is a crowd on the wharf to holler for you?
28391They wo n''t hang''em, will they?"
28391Wait till the time for fighting comes and see--""See what?"
28391Warned him yet?"
28391Was there any money in the job, and what was he expected to do?
28391We could get a reward for turning the schooner over, and you could run her up as far as Fortress Monroe, could n''t you?"
28391We''ve got to eat, and we must have something to wear; and how are we to get things if we have no crops?
28391Well, go on; what does the old man say?"
28391Well, how will these suit you?"
28391Well, what do you say?"
28391Well, what of it?"
28391What a crazy crowd, and what do you reckon they''re going to do?"
28391What business you got to be readin''like a white gentleman?"
28391What did he propose to you?"
28391What did you say you wanted?
28391What do you say to that?"
28391What do you think of the scheme?"
28391What else should we do?"
28391What had become of the Union men who had been burned out of house and home, and what did that Committee of Safety intend to do next?
28391What have I said or done to send you away in such a hurry?"
28391What is the reason those engines are not at work?
28391What regiment?"
28391What was the reason he would n''t listen when you proposed to let Rodney go?"
28391What would that Baltimore fellow do to me if he knew that I have two Union flags in my trunk, and that I mean to hoist them some day?
28391What would you do with him if you was me?"
28391What you doin''?"
28391What you looking at so steady?"
28391What''s that you''re shovin''out of sight behind your cheer?
28391What''s the news?"
28391When did it get here?"
28391When does that company of your''n meet, Bud, an''how are we- uns goin''to get into it?"
28391When it was concluded the fact was plain to Marcy that somebody had been trying to get him and Dick Graham into trouble; but who could it be?
28391When will you be along, Marcy?"
28391Where are your papers?
28391Where did you get so much?"
28391Where do you stand, any way?
28391Where is it?"
28391Where''s Caleb?"
28391Which side are you on, any way?"
28391Who comes there?"
28391Who else have you warned?"
28391Who keers for preachers an''storekeepers now?
28391Who''s got it?"
28391Whom have you warned?"
28391Why did n''t they get out when Beau''gard told''em to, if they did n''t want to get licked?
28391Why did you not go to the front yourself long ago, you noisy braggart?
28391Why do n''t Uncle Sam send some cruisers down here?"
28391Why do n''t those women preach their doctrines at home instead of coming here to bother us with them?"
28391Why do n''t you go in and report?"
28391Why do n''t you let him come home?"
28391Why do n''t you speak?
28391Why does n''t he go North and join the Yankees?"
28391Why does n''t the colonel pat us on the back and say:''Well done, little boys?''"
28391Why should we not?
28391Why were you so anxious to see Bud Goble the last time you were in town?"
28391Will Fort Sumter be reinforced?"
28391Will you come up and take a chair?"
28391Will you take keer on it for ole Toby, sah?"
28391Will you- uns jine?"
28391Would they hang together, or would they split up into factions?
28391You are quite sure you can go straight to him?"
28391You do n''t expect me to tell you who held the ladder while I went up, do you?"
28391You have said more than once that if Missouri goes out and joins the Confederacy, you will go with her, have n''t you?"
28391You see this fellow?"
28391You want money, do n''t you?
28391You want revenge, do n''t you?
28391an''that there committee of yourn wo n''t give you none''ceptin''you can tell''em sunthin'', will they?"
28391for you?
28391here, and"How are you, old fellow?"
28391that was bringing the thing straight home to a fellow, was n''t it?
6979''Got?'' 6979 Am I never going to see you again?"
6979Are yeh sure a- goin''?
6979Are you hungry?
6979Are you sure?
6979Could you see the whites of their eyes?
6979Dan got to go?
6979Did yeh hear that?
6979Did you order up the horses?
6979Do n''t yeh think I know what a rebel is?

6979Everything all right?
6979Finerty, will yeh moind that cow a yours?

6979How do you raikon they cotch him, Sim?
6979Humph,said Dan,"where you been?"
6979In-- in the barn?
6979Is there any one else in the house?
6979Jones,he said, in an intensely earnest voice,"will you tell me what in the devil I am going to do?"
6979Licking, hey? 6979 Longstreet?
6979Never?
6979Never?
6979No news yet, hey?
6979No one?
6979No-- it ca n''t be-- how you know it''s them-- where?
6979Oh, let him alone, ca n''t you?
6979Relief?
6979Say, ca n''t you leave him be?
6979Say, they did n''t stand that rush a minute, did they?
6979So you got him?
6979That? 6979 Was it-- was it those who passed here just now?
6979We ai n''t dyin''of thirst, are we? 6979 Well, I did n''t take your chickens, did I?"
6979Well, I hain''t got no gun nor nuthin'',said Peter, in the same low tone;"what good''ud I do?"
6979Well, do n''t I know it?
6979Well, gimme time, ca n''t yeh?
6979Well, if yeh want a drink so bad, why do n''t yeh go git it?
6979Well, what''s''che got?

6979Well?
6979Well?

6979What are you holding behind you?
6979What is it for, Haines?
6979What was I telling them?
6979What was it?
6979What''che goin''t''do?
6979What''s he goin''to do, anyhow?
6979What''s in it?
6979What''s th''matter with yeh? 6979 What''s th''matter?
6979What''s that?
6979What''s the matter with Billie?
6979What-- them? 6979 What?
6979What?
6979What?
6979What?
6979Where did you come from? 6979 Where''ll we hide?
6979Where? 6979 Who is here besides yourself?"
6979Who is? 6979 Why should I shut up?"
6979Wo n''t you let me bring you something?
6979Wo n''t you tell me?
6979Wo n''t you tell me?
6979Would n''t she?
6979Yeh hain''t afraid, are yeh?
6979Yes; but how you goin''to git it?
6979You are not angry at me, are you?
6979You do n''t think I know, do you?
6979You live here, I presume?
6979You must be pretty thirsty, Collins?
6979You wo n''t hurt him, will you? 6979 A loud voice shouted,What is it, Ferguson?"
6979After a moment, he asked,"Ca n''t you wait?"
6979Ai n''t there any water round here?"
6979Are there any of them here?"
6979Are yeh sure?
6979But suddenly his face straightened and he called:"Say, young man, give me a drink of water, will you?"
6979But the girl ventured again:"Is there anybody there?"
6979Ca n''t yeh shet up?"
6979Did they chase you?"
6979Did you see''i m?"
6979Did-- did you escape from the-- the Yankees?"
6979Do n''t I know it?"
6979Do n''t you wish you owned Sickles''s colt, Jimmie?"
6979Do you hear?"
6979Do you know?"
6979Has he?"
6979Have they gone?"
6979Have those men gone yet?
6979He ca n''t be dead?"
6979He glanced at the house which towered above them, and remarked casually to the man on the horse- hair trunk:"Funny, ai n''t it?
6979He leaned toward the shaking girl, and said gently:"Will you tell me what you were going to do with this pistol?"
6979He said:"Shut up, will you?"
6979He scowled at the boys and whispered angrily:"Why did n''t yeh bring th''powder- horn an''th''thing with th''bullets in?
6979He turned then to whisper:"You wait here, will yeh?"
6979He twisted his head once to say:"Keep still, ca n''t yeh?
6979Hey?"
6979How d''I know?"
6979How in thunder d''I know?"
6979How long ago?
6979I wonder if they took old Santo?"
6979If you''re goin''in after''i m, why do n''t yeh go in after''i m?"
6979In a faint whisper the first man said,"Where''s Sim?"
6979In the house?"
6979No one knew that during this time the old lady had been standing in her night- clothes at the bedroom door, yelling:"What''s th''matter?
6979Old Peter halted once and whispered:"Say, look a''here; supposin''--supposin''--""Supposin''what?"
6979Once he turned his head and asked,"What?"
6979Presently Dan said:"Billie, where you been?"
6979Presently the major returned and said, in a cautious whisper:"If yeh hear anythin'', you come a- runnin'', will yeh?"
6979Seeing a wakeful one he asked:"Is Dan back yet?"
6979She addressed the kitchen:"Who''s there?"
6979She was still for a time, and then, awed, she said:"Will they-- will they hang him?"
6979Sometimes the captain called to them,"Try that closet,""Is there any cellar?"
6979Suddenly he ceased his oration, and scanning the group of his comrades, said:"Where''s Billie?
6979Suddenly she turned and whispered,"Who is he?"
6979The captain said:"Please, wo n''t you tell me?"
6979The girl who knelt beside the body upon the floor turned toward them her lamenting eyes and cried:"He''s not dead, is he?
6979The lieutenant said to the first sergeant:"Williams, did they ever meet before?"
6979Then finally he ventured:"Grandpa-- now-- was that true what you was telling those men?"
6979Then he hesitatingly stepped closer, and said:"Got any news, Dan?"
6979Two poor helpless women--""Why, ma, what makes you act so?
6979We----""Did you ever see my father in the army?"
6979What is he-- in the cavalry?"
6979What shall I do, ma?
6979What shall I do?"
6979What''s th''matter with yeh?"
6979What''s th''matter with yeh?"
6979What''s th''matter?
6979What''s th''matter?"
6979What-- that little passel?
6979What?
6979When are those men going?
6979When he returned to the group he found the captain bending over the girl and saying:"Why is it that you do n''t want us to search upstairs?"
6979Where is he now?
6979Where is he?"
6979Where is she?
6979Where''ll we hide?
6979Who is over in the woods?
6979Who saw''i m?
6979Why did n''t you lick us at----?
6979Why do n''t some of them other corporals take their turn?"
6979Will I get you something to eat?"
6979You recollect?
6979You whipped us, did n''t you?
6979You''ll run through that there medder, wo n''t yeh?"
6979and at----?
6979and at----?"
6979why did you, why did you?"
38948''Well, Annie, what is it?'' 38948 A prisoner?
38948A''n''t one of them General Grant?
38948A''n''t there any cavalry camped at Shoal Creek?
38948A''n''t you the lady that sent Colonel Slemmens the boquet last summer, when he was on outpost duty, with his regiment, at Cold Water?
38948And a sack of flour?
38948Are they?
38948Are you a soldier?
38948Are you a soldier?
38948Are you bursted?
38948Are you going to shoot me?
38948Are you going to_ shoot_ him?
38948Are you hurt, Bunker?
38948Are you-- gwine to-- kill me?
38948Are you? 38948 Are your_ bowels_ all right?"
38948Boys,said I,"do n''t you know better than to huddle together in that way for bushwhackers to shoot at?
38948Bunker,said the Colonel,"a''n''t you mistaken?"
38948Certainly, gentlemen; what will you have, roast beef or boiled ham?
38948Colonel,said I,"what do you think about that cotton trip to Bolivar now?
38948Did he?
38948Did they go out here this morning?
38948Did they have passes?
38948Did those men come through the lines here?
38948Did you allow them to go out without passes?
38948Did you bring the man in?
38948Did you do_ all that alone_?
38948Did you get a pass from the Yank''s to get out with?
38948Did you have a hand in it?
38948Did you help take the place?
38948Did you see any of Bill Johnson''s cavalry on the road?
38948Did you see any rebel cavalry there?
38948Do n''t you belong to that ar mule cavalry?
38948Do you belong to the Federal army?
38948Do you claim that wagon, Lieutenant?
38948Do you expect to pin the States together again with bayonets?
38948Do you know of any body that has got any of that kind of cartridges?
38948Do you know the name of any Colonel in Bolivar, and the regiment that he commands?
38948Do you know what regiment the man belonged to that took it?
38948Do you know who got this man''s revolver?
38948Do you remember of my assisting you one time in Memphis, when you was in trouble?
38948Do you see him?
38948Do you think that I would sit here and see your son steal my money without saying any thing? 38948 Do-- you-- know-- the-- hoss?"
38948General Van Dorn,said General Wheeler,"do n''t you know him?
38948General,said I, when the citizen had gone,"do you know where Billy Jackson is?"
38948Good morning; wo n''t you come in?
38948Has the forage party come in, chaplain?
38948Have n''t we got a cavalry force there?
38948Have n''t you taken the_ oath_, doctor?
38948Have we got any cavalry here?
38948Have we got any guerrillas here?
38948Have you been out to the Hickory Flats?
38948Have you come here to interfere with my arrangements?
38948Have you got a Southern paper?
38948Have you got a pass?
38948Have you got a pass?
38948Have you got any fire- arms or papers with you?
38948Have you got any meat?
38948Have you got any money?
38948Have you got any pass, or any papers to show that?
38948Have you lived in these parts long?
38948Here I am, Doctor,I answered;"what do you want of me?"
38948How are you, boys?
38948How are_ you_?
38948How came you to be in Bolivar?
38948How close can we get without getting into the Yankee pickets?
38948How did you manage to get into Bolivar?
38948How do you do?
38948How far have you come on this military road?
38948How far?
38948How long have you been sick?
38948How many are there of you here?
38948How many did they fire after I went away?
38948How so?
38948How so?
38948How?
38948I have got some nice rum here; will you try some of it?
38948I suppose, then, Colonel, that the best thing that we can do is to get away from here; a''n''t it?
38948If de secesh dun git us, wo n''t dey hang us both?
38948Is that all? 38948 Is that your rank, sir?"
38948Jim,said I to the man nearest me, whom I knew to be a good shot,"why do n''t you shoot that General?"
38948Look here, daddy; do n''t you know that this country is invaded? 38948 Mother,"said she,"what are you doing with that man here?"
38948Mr. Bunker, hab we got forces down dar in de bottom?
38948Mr. Bunker,said he,"is there any forces coming along here?"
38948My son, what made you go into the shop during my absence?
38948No; are you?
38948Now, could you,she continued,"demand of a_ poor lone widow_, like I am, breakfast for sixteen men and feed for a hundred and fifty horses?"
38948Shall I drive him thar?
38948Stranger,said I, addressing an elderly gentleman that I found on entering,"can I get some dinner here?"
38948That would really be a nice little spec, would n''t it?
38948That''s a fact, is it?
38948That''s a_ fact_, is it?
38948That''s the understanding then, is it?
38948There,said the Admiral, handing me the gun;"how do you like the looks of that?"
38948Tom,said I to the Sergeant,"what kind of soldiers do you call them?"
38948Vare you stshay they are? 38948 Was he in the fight?"
38948Was there a barrel of sugar?
38948Well, ca n''t you bestow a little more of your hospitality on a fellow, in the shape of about a pint, to put in my pocket and take along?
38948Well, do you ever drink any?
38948Well, how did the fight come off?
38948Well, inasmuch as I have got no cartridges for my gun, how will you trade guns with me?
38948Well, it will be apt to go pretty hard with them, wo n''t it?
38948Well, sir, are you acquainted about here?
38948Well, that was lucky, was n''t it?
38948Well, what are they?
38948Well, what did you do with them?
38948Well, what is it that you want I should do?
38948Well, what is it?
38948Well, what is it?
38948Well, what is it?
38948Well, what is the news about Vicksburg?
38948Well, what luck did you have?
38948Well, where is he?
38948Well, why did n''t you save one of the hams that you threw away, if you wanted one so bad?
38948Whar be you gwine?
38948What are the militia doing there?
38948What are you doing here with a light at this time of night?
38948What are you doing here?

38948What are you doing here?
38948What are you doing here?
38948What are you doing out here?
38948What are you doing_ here_?
38948What are you dressed up so nice for?
38948What business has an infantry soldier with such a revolver as that?
38948What do you mean?
38948What do you want here?
38948What do you want of General Hurlbut?
38948What do you want of General McPherson?
38948What do you want of me?
38948What do you want?
38948What do you want?
38948What have we done,I inquired,"that you should have such an awful antipathy against us?"
38948What have you got here?
38948What is that for?
38948What is your name?
38948What is your name?
38948What is your name?
38948What is your rank?
38948What kind are they, Bunker?
38948What kind of ammunition do you want?
38948What news have you got?
38948What were you doing here?
38948What were you doing here?
38948What were you doing there at this time of night?
38948What were you placed here for?
38948What''s the names of the men that were out with you?
38948What''s up? 38948 What''s up?"
38948Where are you from?
38948Where are you from?
38948Where are you from?
38948Where are you gwine?
38948Where did you come from?
38948Where did you ever see me?
38948Where did you go?
38948Where do you belong?
38948Where do you belong?
38948Where do you belong?
38948Where do you belong?
38948Where do you belong?
38948Where do you belong?
38948Where do you belong?
38948Where do_ you_ belong?
38948Where have you been?
38948Where have you been?
38948Where have you been?
38948Where have you been?
38948Where is he?
38948Where is your look- out post?
38948Where were you going, and what were you going for?
38948Where?
38948Where?
38948Whereabouts is General Ross''command?
38948Which is of the most importance, Major: for me to sit down and tell you my history, or for you to get out your men and capture those guerrillas?
38948Who are these?
38948Who are you to work for now?
38948Who are you?
38948Who are you?
38948Who are you?
38948Who are you?
38948Who are you?
38948Who are you?
38948Who comes there?
38948Who is that man with you?
38948Who is the Colonel?
38948Who were those two men with you that ran away?
38948Who''s coming to see you?
38948Whose-- General Van Dorn''s?
38948Why not? 38948 Why so?
38948Why so?
38948Why so?
38948Why, what is it?
38948Why, yes, I believe I was; where was you?
38948Will you be responsible to me for my share?
38948Yes, I am a spy; where do you belong?
38948Yes, did you?
38948Yes, h-- h-- how d-- do you do?
38948Yes,said I,"the ox is yours now; why did n''t you think of that when loyal men begged of you for mercy?
38948Yes,said one;"where have you been?"
38948Yes; but pray what fetched you here?
38948Yes; but what shall I do about it?
38948Yes; why?
38948You are mighty good, a''n''t you? 38948 You are?
38948You belong to them, I suppose?
38948You do n''t remember of having me arrested in Tennessee as a rebel spy? 38948 You do?"
38948You do?
38948You have taken the_ oath_ to the Lincoln Government, I suppose?
38948You let him go, did you?
38948You lose mules, do n''t you?
38948You was? 38948 You were in the fight on the Hatchee, the other day, were you?"
38948You will give-- a body-- time-- to pray-- won''t you?
38948You''ve got tired soldiering on short rations, I suppose?
38948You_ are_ in a bad fix now, a''n''t you?
38948_ Captured_ you?
38948_ Come_, prisoner,said Levi, manifesting impatience;"a''n''t you getting about through with your conversation?"
38948_ How do you do, daddy?_said I again, louder than before.
38948_ Ruptured!_ what is that?
38948_ What in hell and d-- nation are you doing?_I shouted.
38948( Addressing the South Carolina General,)"Do you know that man?"
38948A''n''t you afraid they''ll_ get you_?"
38948About 1 o''clock at night a rebel Captain stepped up to me, and addressing me by name, said,"How are you?"
38948Addressing myself to the lady of the house, said I,"Can we get some breakfast here this morning?
38948After we had conversed awhile, I said to her,"''Melia, did you see Billy Jackson in town yesterday?"
38948Approaching the bedside, I said to him:"You are sick, are you, old hoss?"
38948Are you determined to kill me?_""Do n''t shoot!
38948Are you the gentleman?"
38948As I entered his office, I was saluted by,"Well, old hoss, who are you?"
38948As we were going in, we met a soldier, who, when he saw me, called out,"Hallo, Ruggles, is that you?
38948Boys, have you got any for yourselves?"
38948But where is your uniform?"
38948But, pray tell me, what is your situation for money?"
38948By the way, how does the doctor like the Yankees being so strict?"
38948Ca n''t you afford to do that much for us?
38948Ca n''t you make a cotton- burning trip up into the vicinity of Bolivar?
38948Ca n''t you take this revolver and keep watch for us to- night, while we sleep, so that we can_ both_ get one good night''s sleep?
38948Ca n''t you wait on a poor soldier?"
38948Can you do it?"
38948Can you render me any assistance?"
38948Can you tell me of any path that leads down there?"
38948Coming up to him, I said,"Daddy, how do you do?"
38948Do you think that you are doing exactly right to take up arms against us?"
38948Do you understand me?"
38948Do you understand that, you black rascal?"
38948Do you wish to go right on to General Johnston''s head- quarters?"
38948Do you''_ know him''now_?
38948General, do you know Jim Ford and Charlie Ford, of Memphis?"
38948Ha''n''t I taught you better than that?
38948Ha''n''t I thrashed you time and again for that?
38948Had n''t I better go up and tell him to come down?"
38948Have n''t you got some whisky, that you can give me two or three hundred swallows before I go?"
38948Have you any news?"
38948Have you any papers to show that?"
38948Have you''_ seen him before_?''"
38948He read over my order from the Governor, and then said,"Did you raise your men under that order as scouts?"
38948He said to me,"Bunker, what is your detail for?"
38948Hearing some one come to the door, I inquired where Mr. W. S. Perry lived, and was asked,"Who are you?"
38948How are you?"
38948How did you keep the Yankees from taking your revolver?"
38948How do you like my trap, Captain?"
38948How do you like them?"
38948How in the world did you come to be up here?"
38948I again woke him up, and commenced to tell what I wanted, when he said:"Do-- you-- know-- the-- man?"
38948I am sure that you ca n''t get along with that?"
38948I had been there but a moment, when a prisoner, discovering that I was a fresh arrival, stepped up and said,"To what command do you belong?"
38948I helped you; why not help me?"
38948I think your Adjutant- General has got some pretty good whisky in there; ca n''t you induce him to give me a drink before I go back?"
38948I''ll help you out of this, if I can?"
38948Is any of our forces out on this yer road?"
38948Is that you?
38948It_ was_ a narrow escape, was n''t it?"
38948Just then another prisoner came up, and, taking me by the hand, said,"Do n''t you know me?"
38948Lieutenant, where did you boys stay last night?"
38948Now, Major, what plan do you propose to get them through?"
38948Oh, tell me, have you received your new guns yet?"
38948On the Baldwin''s Ferry road?"
38948Our rap for admittance was answered by"Who is there?"
38948People often ask me,"What is the essential qualification of a good spy?"
38948Pulling out my wallet, I said,"General, how much did you pay for that wine?
38948Ruggles?"
38948Said I to the latter, saluting him,"General Breman, you do n''t know me, do you?"
38948Said I,"You have n''t had your furlough long, have you, Colonel?"
38948Said the private to me:"Bunker, was there a carpet on that wagon?"
38948Seeing only my own number of men, I inquired:"Was the doctor at home?"
38948Sha''n''t I help you to some?
38948She invited us to be seated, and then said:"Have you been in the fight?"
38948Since it is so warm down where you are going that you do n''t need it, what objections can you have to my taking it?"
38948Soldier, what road did you come in on this morning?"
38948Street?"
38948Taking a hickory gun- wiper that stood in a corner of the shop, he gave me a severe whipping, and then said,"Lorain, what did you do with the nails?"
38948The Captain carried the letter to him and read it, and then said,"Frank, what shall I write to your sister?"
38948The officers left as soon as I came up, and the lady turned her conversation to me:"Do you know General Van Dorn?"
38948Then turning to the old man, I said:"Did n''t you tell the rebel Colonel that I was a Yankee spy, and try to have him shoot me?
38948They are not all fools, are they?"
38948They called me, and General McPherson said:"Bunker, can you shoot into that ditch yonder, where those men are at work?
38948We had a chaplain in our regiment, who said to me once,''Bunker, ca n''t you bring me in a good horse?''
38948We halted in front of the steps leading on to the porch, when Levi, addressing the lady, said:"Madam, have you got any corn or fodder here?"
38948We procured what breakfast we wanted, and was about to leave, when, addressing the old man, I said:"How do you do, daddy?"
38948We were about to leave, when the man said,"You''ll stop with us to breakfast, wo n''t you?"
38948Were you on picket yesterday?"
38948What are you doing up here?"
38948What business have you to be prowling about between the lines of the two contending armies?"
38948What command do you belong to?"
38948What do you say, will you do it?"
38948What do you say?
38948What do you think is the matter?"
38948What do you think of that, Sol.?"
38948What is your name?"
38948What shall I do-- go to recruiting, or go back to the front?"
38948What''s that?"
38948What''s the matter up in town?"
38948What''s the names of the men that belong to your band?"
38948What''s the news?"
38948When I had finished, said I,"Mister, look''e here; have you got any more of that''divine, adorable stuff?''"
38948When he came to the date, which was 1863, when it should have been 1864, he inquired:"Where have you been for a year past?"
38948When ready to attend to me, he said:"Well, where do you belong?"
38948Where did you capture him?"
38948Where do you belong?"
38948Where in the h-- l have you been?
38948Where is he?"
38948Which will you do?"
38948Who has not?
38948Why a''n''t you cooking breakfast?"
38948Why did n''t you stop?
38948Why do n''t you get paroled, or run away from that guard?"
38948Why, what do you want?"
38948Will you accept them?"
38948Wo n''t we all be killed?
38948Wo n''t you alight and come in?"
38948Wo n''t you let me get on behind you and ride across?"
38948You are going down to hunt up the Yankees, are you?"
38948You are not a- gwine to_ walk_ to Salem, are you?"
38948You are really a prisoner, then, are you?"
38948You did n''t know that, did you, boys?"
38948You''ll get cold there, wo n''t you?"
38948are you in here?"
38948captured_ you_?
38948do you remember the''_ Yankee spy_?''
38948have_ our forces all got up yet_?"
38948is that a fight?
38948said I;"why did n''t you clean that horse''s legs?
38948said the man;"where do you belong?"
38948that''s it, is it?_ I did n''t know that!"
38948trying to evade capture, said to me:"Look''e here, mister, where do you belong?"
38948what makes you think that?"
38948what''s the news on the other side of the river?"
38948who comes there?"
38948who comes there?''
38948who comes there?''
38948will you lead us?"
8648Is There, Then, No Hope for the Nations?
8648Is he wounded? 8648 Is there any news of the war?"
8648Prepare for what?
8648Well, well, read on; is he wounded? 8648 Well, who comes next?"
8648What tidings?
8648Who cometh?
8648Whom have you there?
8648_ Is it that these intonations Thrill him thus from head to knee? 8648 & c. Vile despots, with their minions knavish, Would drag us back to their embrace; Will freemen brook a chain so slavish? 8648 ( And who shall tell this deed of hell, how deadlier far a curse it is Than even pulling temples down and burning universities)? 8648 Adown the lane treadeth only April rain? 8648 All is gone-- Through the tangled hedge- rows green glimmer thus the sunbeam''s sheen, Dropping from cloud- rifts between? 8648 And are they really dead, our martyred slain? 8648 And did ye dream success Would still unvarying bless Your arms, nor meet reverse in some dread field? 8648 And shall History, in all her narrations, Still close each last chapter in shame? 8648 And shall an adverse hour Make ye mistrust the power Of virtue, in your souls, to make your enemy yield? 8648 And shall not evening-- call another star Out of the infinite regions of the night, To mark this day in Heaven? 8648 And trembling meet his chilling glance, And then, for once, with truthful breath, Answer,_ Is this a time to dance?_The Maryland Line."
8648And what the foe, the felon race, That seek your subjugation?
8648And what the spoil That tempts their toil, The bait that goads them on to fight?
8648And, under God, whose thunder need we fear?
8648Are we to bend to slavish yoke?
8648Art ready for this, dear brother, who still Keep''st Washington''s bones upon Vernon''s hill?
8648Art ready for this, dear brother, whose ear, Should ever the voices of Mecklenberg hear?
8648Atween the trees cometh naught but summer breeze?
8648Aye, panther, wolf, and bear, Have perish''d''neath my knife; Why tremble, then, with fear, When now I go, my wife?
8648But e''en if you drop down unheeded, What matter?
8648But who can paint the impulse pure, That thrills and nerves thy brave To deeds of valor, that secure The rights their fathers gave?
8648But ye"Hunters,"so famed,"of Kentucky"of yore, Where now are the rifles that kept from your door The wolf and the robber as well?
8648Can love be restored To bosoms where only resentment may dwell?
8648Can peace upon earth be proclaimed by the sword, Or good- will among men be established by shell?
8648Can you shamefully barter your birthright for gold, Or basely take counsel of fear?
8648Could you brand us as villains and serfs, know ye not What fierce, sullen hatred lurks under the scar?
8648Did I speak?
8648Did they mercy show When they bound the mother that bore us?
8648Did ye think the mere show of your guns on the wall, And your shouts, would the souls of the heathen appal?
8648Do Sumter, Rutledge, Gadsden, live?
8648Do they murmur of submission; Do they call on us to bow Our necks to the foe triumphant Who is riding o''er us now?
8648Do ye quail but to hear, Carolinians, The first foot- tramp of Tyranny''s minions?
8648Do ye quail, as on yon little islet They have planted the feet that defile it?
8648Does any falter?
8648Does she think on me''mid the golden hours, Past the mountain''s long blue lines?
8648Dost thou hearken, brave Creole, as fearless as strong, Nor rouse thee to combat the infamous wrong?
8648Earth, that all too soon hath bound him?
8648For Thou hast called her!--is she not Thine own?
8648Guarded is every street, Brutal the hireling foe; Is there one heart here will boldly dare So brave a deed to do?
8648Has the fire on the altar died out?
8648Has the love you once bore to your country grown cold?
8648Have Ye Thought?"
8648Have they come from the shores supernal, Have they passed from the spirit''s goal,''Neath the veil of the life eternal, To dawn on my shrinking soul?
8648Have they turned from the choiring angels, Aghast at the woe and dearth That war, with his dark evangels, Hath wrought in the loved of earth?
8648Have ye buckled on armor, and brandished the spear, But to shrink with the trumpet''s first peal on the ear?
8648Heard ye that thrilling word-- Accent of dread-- Fall, like a thunderbolt, Bowing each head?
8648How could we bear the mirth, While some loved reveller of a year ago Keeps his mute Christmas now beneath the snow, In cold Virginian earth?
8648How grace this hallowed day?
8648How shall we grace the day?
8648How shall we grace the day?
8648How shall we keep our Christmas tide?
8648I thought I said, let me look upon your dead-- All is gone--- Was I cold?
8648I wonder if she''ll know me?
8648I. Hath not the morning dawned with added light?
8648If you love me half so wildly-- Half so madly as you say, Listen to me, darling, mildly-- Would you do aught I would pray?
8648In the dusk of the forest shade A sallow and dusty group reclined; Gallops a horseman up the glade--"Where will I your leader find?
8648Is This a Time to Dance?
8648Is there indeed a door Where the old pastimes, with their lawful noise, And all the merry round of Christmas joys, Could enter as of yore?
8648Is there none to warn the camp, None from that anxious throng?
8648Is there, then, no hope for the nations?

8648Mortally wounded--"_The Brigade must not know, sir._""Who''ve ye got there?"
8648Must the record of Time be the same?
8648Never such a golden light Lit the vaulted sky; Never sacrifice as bright, Rose to God on high: Thousands oxen, what were they To the offering we pay?
8648Now, come what may, whose favor need we court?
8648Ode--"Do Ye Quail?"
8648One, amid the battle- wreck, restive plunged his charger black-- All is gone-- Whirrs the partridge there-- didst see where he rode so recklessly?
8648Or have the lips of a sister fair-- Been baptized in their waves of light?
8648Or who shall say that time will bring Fair fruit to him who sows but grief?
8648Published Originally in the Southern Field and Fireside, By George Herbert Sass, of Charleston, S.C. Watchman, what of the night?
8648Repentant?
8648Shall I not keep the peace, That made our cottage dear; And''till these wolf- curs cease Shall I be housing here?
8648Shall I wake them?"
8648Shall dastard tyrants march their legions To crush the land of Jackson-- Lee?
8648Shall freedom fly to other regions, And sons of Yorktown bend the knee?
8648Shall happy bells, from yonder ancient spire, Send their glad greetings to each Christmas fire Round which the children play?
8648Shall it be the right hand to the friend, or the red hand to the foe?
8648Shall it break before the sun of peace, or spread in rage impowered?
8648Shall we have the smile of friendship, or shall it be the blow?
8648So still, so chill, in the whispering grass?
8648Somebody''s hand hath rested there; Was it a mother''s, soft and white?
8648Sound to me most sweetly strange, Will your pledges ne''er be broken?
8648Sweetest sister, dost thou weep?

8648The noon is past, and the day is done, She knows that the battle is lost or won-- Who lives?

8648What ails the woman standing near?
8648What are the war- waves saying, As they compass us around?
8648What have we left?
8648What matter if our feet are torn?
8648What matter if our shoes are worn?
8648What right to freedom when we are not free?
8648When the foot of pollution is set on your shores, What sinew and soul should be stronger than yours?
8648While I recline At ease beneath This immemorial pine, Small sphere!-- By dusky fingers brought this morning here?
8648Who died?

8648Why are we forever speaking Of the warriors of old?
8648Why droops she thus earthward-- why bends she?
8648Why should the dreary pall, Round_ him_, be flung at all?
8648Why your forts now embattled on headland and height, Your sons all in armor, unless for the fight?
8648Will brave men take so low a place?

31831All of them?
31831Am I as rich as that? 31831 Am I to remain on this ship when she goes into action, sir?"
31831An''what for de cap''n brung all dem Home Gyards to de house to cotch you an''tote you off to jail?
31831And did n''t you recognize their voices?
31831And did those two iron- clads fight?
31831And did you see those other masked men, who came in and rescued us from the power of the robbers?
31831And do you think they are coming this way?
31831And does Julius know all these things?
31831And even if he should be dunce enough to hire him, how could Kelsey find out whether or not there was any money in the house? 31831 And how did you hear of it, seeing that the Yankees have rendered our post- office at Nashville useless to us?"
31831And how do I know but they will take some sort of vengeance on my mother if they fail to find me?
31831And how does it come that Hanson could learn so much of Mrs. Gray''s private affairs?
31831And if he did deny it, how did he explain the presence of that Confederate flag in his house?
31831And if you had been in my place you would n''t have come home till you got good and ready?
31831And let the same thing happen again?
31831And so follow up that squad of thieving Yankees and see what damage they did? 31831 And the Confederate government got half, I suppose?"
31831And they did n''t fire your house afterward?
31831And was n''t your house set too?
31831And where?
31831And while their owners are away from home on business,added Mark,"it means something, does n''t it?
31831And will he not tell of it?
31831And you did not see what became of him and the others?
31831And you do not think it would be unwise to trust him?
31831And you intend to get it, I suppose?
31831And you think it was during the excitement consequent upon the first day''s victory that our neighbors were led to organize the Home Guards?
31831And you wo n''t let on about the other things I have told you?
31831And you''ll not forget to look out for Jack and Aleck?
31831Are there any weapons in the house, do you know?
31831Are they Union or secesh?
31831Are you Marcy Gray, the pilot?
31831Are you lubbers going to stand there and let the man die before your eyes?
31831Are you sure that Beardsley was with those men?
31831Are you sure?
31831Are you two going to ride out with me?
31831Beardsley?
31831But I warn you, boy, that if you lead my men among them----"Who? 31831 But do you know that if you do not go back to serve your year out, you will be treated as deserters?"
31831But have n''t you an idea who they were?
31831But have you any evidence against the Websters?
31831But have you seen Ben Hawkins?
31831But how can you? 31831 But if it''s Marcy who has been a- pestering of me, how can I prove it on him?"
31831But in the first place, do you know anything about the Home Guards?
31831But she did not have to go to three cities to buy the cloth those clothes were made of, did she? 31831 But what did they steal besides your weapons?"
31831But what would my mother do without me?
31831But what you uns going to do for an overseer?
31831But where shall I go?
31831But who will protect the Union families if you go away?
31831But you do not mean to put him to work?
31831Ca n''t you think of a single man hereabouts who knows the channel through Croatan Sound?
31831Could n''t I write a letter and sign a hundred names to it, if I wanted to? 31831 Did Beardsley find the note I left for him?"
31831Did Beardsley or Hanson say anything about me?
31831Did Mrs. Gray use them words about me?
31831Did n''t I say that Beardsley would not let harm come to us if he could help it? 31831 Did n''t I say that the first one amongst''em who looked cross- ways at her, or said anything out of the way, would have to answer to me for it?"
31831Did n''t I say they were all masked?
31831Did n''t you see it?
31831Did they treat you well?
31831Did you call him Beardsley, and say that he commanded the_ Osprey?_"Dat''s de name, moster,replied Jonas.
31831Did you ever hear a fellow go on as Ben Hawkins did?
31831Did you ever think of going into the army yourself?
31831Did you know I was here?
31831Did you know that the robbers were to come here to- night?
31831Did you know they were out there in the garden?
31831Did you like to butt the life out of Cap''n Beardsley last night?
31831Did you see the robbers come into the house?
31831Did you see them when they returned? 31831 Did you see them when they took their prisoners away?
31831Did you watch them to see where they went?
31831Do any of the Union men ever go there?
31831Do n''t it beat you what sort of stories get afloat these times?
31831Do n''t the law say that we- uns must n''t pay no debts to the Yankees, but must turn the money over to the fellers at Richmond?
31831Do n''t you know anything about that, either?
31831Do n''t you reckon I know my own affairs better''n you do?
31831Do the members of your band ever hang about the post- office? 31831 Do they say anything about robbery?"
31831Do you call that a good story?
31831Do you intend to say anything about our visitors?
31831Do you intend to take them from me?
31831Do you know what you are saying?
31831Do you know when the Home Guards intend to come to our house?
31831Do you know who they are?
31831Do you mean the Yanks?
31831Do you mean the war?
31831Do you mean to say that Mose has run away?
31831Do you pretend to tell me that you received such a letter?
31831Do you reckon I''d let them miss that place? 31831 Do you think he told the truth?"
31831Do you think there will be any more fighting, captain?
31831Does he know anything?
31831Does n''t he want me to feed him any more?
31831Does this yere road lead to Nashville?
31831Graybacks?
31831Had n''t we a right to say who shall work for us and who shall not?
31831Has he got home?
31831Has he tried them?
31831Have you any idea who they were?
31831Have you forgot the men who took Hanson away in the night, and piled up those weeds and stuff up agin my house?
31831Have you so soon forgotten what that letter said?
31831Have you tried to get a commission?
31831He said he heard that there were arms and a flag in the house; have you any idea who told him?
31831He went down to Newbern to ship on an ironclad he did n''t find; so I suppose he went into the army, did he not?
31831Home Guards?
31831How and when did that happen?
31831How are you going to help it?
31831How could they have got in without alarming Bose?
31831How do you account for the burning of Beardsley''s house and Shelby''s, while Gray''s was allowed to stand?
31831How do you expect me to dress rapidly with only one hand to work with?
31831How do you explain the burning of those two houses?
31831How do you find yourself this fine morning, mother?
31831How do you know?
31831How do you make that out?
31831How do you reckon they happened to know that I was n''t here to fight''em that night?
31831How do you suppose I can tell? 31831 How far back in the country, and who are they?"
31831How is you, missus?
31831How you come here, Marse Mahcy? 31831 I am sure of it; for if Beardsley did n''t say something to him, how would Hawkins know that there was a big pile of money in Mrs. Gray''s house?
31831I came up last night in the_ Hattie._"You did? 31831 I do n''t know; but I suppose the postmaster could bring a squad of soldiers from Plymouth, could he not?"
31831I do n''t suppose you have any idea who the robbers were?
31831I done it, did n''t I?
31831I hope they did not abuse him?
31831I know that mighty well, but you can say that you heard him speak them very words, ca n''t you?
31831I know that, but I do n''t care; do you? 31831 I know what I know, and believe what I have seen with my own two eyes, do n''t I?
31831I suppose you know that Beardsley was to blame for the robbers coming to your house?
31831If Beardsley had you by the arm how did you manage to get away from him?
31831If Julius hear sumfin, do n''t you reckon he got sense''nough to tell? 31831 If that is what the signal means, why do n''t you go to your stations?"
31831If you think it would be quite safe----"What other way is there to get it?
31831In where?
31831Is Mr. Goodwin a member of the Home Guards?
31831Is it possible that you have n''t heard of it?
31831Is n''t that what I said?
31831Jack declared that he would take to the swamp before he would fight for the Confederacy, and why should n''t I do the same? 31831 Jonas, is that you?"
31831Julius,said Marcy, getting upon his feet,"are you going to answer me or not?"
31831Keep your eyes and ears open, and if you do catch on to anything come straight to me with it; do you understand? 31831 Listen to the reading of it:''_ This day our country expects every man to do his duty!_''What have you men to say to that?
31831Look a hyar, Marse Mahcy,began Julius; and then he hesitated for as much as a minute before he went on to say,"You know dat niggah Mose?"
31831Marcy,said his mother,"did I not tell you to let that money alone?"
31831Marse Mahcy, will the Yankees luf him come back if he wants to?
31831Morris,exclaimed Mrs. Gray,"do you know who the robbers were?"
31831Now, are you not afraid that some one will bring soldiers there to make prisoners of you?
31831Now, how can you get home in the easiest way?
31831Now, where were you at the time?
31831Or about threatening to pull a law- abiding boy up by the neck because he does not happen to have a pocketful of money with him?
31831Out where?
31831S''pose I have? 31831 Shoot him behind his back?"
31831So that''s the chap, is it?
31831So you''ve got it, have you?
31831That''s the gospel truth; but did n''t I say I would keep your place open for you while you was laid up in ordinary with your broken arm? 31831 That''s what I think; but if they refuse it will show me that I had better be on my guard, wo n''t it?"
31831The Home Guards?
31831The next officer who comes here will say:''Perhaps there are no weapons in the house, but are there any_ around_ it?'' 31831 Then how does it come that there are seventeen hundred dollars here?"
31831Then what did you do?
31831Then whose work is that? 31831 Then why did n''t you come out?"
31831Then why not make a sure thing of it by putting the government officers on the scent the first thing?
31831These are all you have, I suppose?
31831They? 31831 This is the place where the Union pilot lives, is it?"
31831To what particular battle do you refer, Captain?
31831Two? 31831 Was dat you?
31831Was the man who was knocked down very much hurt?
31831We are not whipped, are we?
31831We can hint that she does, ca n''t we? 31831 Well den, what for you go in the wah an''fight the Yankees what want to give us pore niggahs our freedom?"
31831Well, den, what for dat rebel burn all dem fine ships out on de watah like Marse Jack tell about?
31831Well, if you wo n''t take the money, you will acknowledge that I tried to do the fair thing by you? 31831 Well, then, is he not aware that we are looking to those same men for protection?"
31831Well, what did they want?
31831Well, what did you give them when you reached the house?
31831Well, what do you reckon you make of it?
31831Well, what of it?
31831Were any of our brave fellows injured?
31831Were you out with the Home Guards last night? 31831 What Beardsley say when he seen his fine schooner go up in de clouds?"
31831What about the Home Guards?
31831What are they?
31831What are we going to do? 31831 What are you going to do?"
31831What are you ruffians going to do?
31831What boat is he on, and what position does he hold?
31831What brought you here at this hour of the night, and how came you in the company of such a gang as that?
31831What did I tell you?
31831What did he say?
31831What did that friend of yours tell you?
31831What direct influence can a great battle have on our private affairs?
31831What do you know about farming and driving niggers? 31831 What do you mean by keeping so quiet when you know that I want to have some serious talk with you?
31831What do you mean, any way?
31831What do you stare at me that- a- way for?
31831What do you suppose put the idea into their heads?
31831What do you think now?
31831What do you think they can want here?
31831What do you think we ought to do? 31831 What do you want me to do to prove it?"
31831What does he think he has against me?
31831What does?
31831What for I want wake up everybody?
31831What for dey do dat?
31831What for dey do n''t make''em roun''like all de res''?
31831What for dey make all dem sharp corners on dar?
31831What for?
31831What good would that do? 31831 What happened out your way last night?"
31831What if you did? 31831 What is it, old fellow?"
31831What is strange?
31831What is the reason you do n''t want to tell?
31831What is the use of being in a hurry to get shot at?
31831What is wanted?
31831What makes them believe that when me and you know it ai nt so?
31831What of him?
31831What of it? 31831 What of that?
31831What scheme have Shelby and Dillon and the postmaster and your father and mine got in hand that they take so much pains to keep from us boys?
31831What shall I do with that man Beardsley, if you please?
31831What was Hanson anyhow? 31831 What was Marcy Gray''s schooner doing outside, and in the night- time, too?"
31831What was his object in taking the guns out?
31831What were you doing out there at that time of night?
31831What would be the use, when we know that you told us nothing but the truth? 31831 What would be the use?
31831What''s broke loose now?
31831What''s out there?
31831What''s the good of taking on so now that the trouble is all over?
31831What''s the odds whether you think so or not?
31831What''s the row?
31831What''s the use of getting mad because somebody tells you the truth?
31831What''s the use?
31831What?
31831When did you return, and how does it come that you are riding the captain''s horse?
31831When did you see Hawkins?
31831When you see Beardsley, will you tell him that I want to come in?
31831When you see the chandelier that was pulled out of its place in the ceiling by the rope----"Were you hanging to the rope when it pulled out?
31831Where are the rest?
31831Where did you get that, if it is a fair question?
31831Where do you think it is concealed, any way?
31831Where does he live now?
31831Where is my station in action?
31831Where shall we go?
31831Where were you when those robbers came into the house?
31831Where were you?
31831Where''s that rope, Jim? 31831 Where''s the men?
31831Where''s the prize- money I paid you?'' 31831 Which whipped?"
31831Who are they?
31831Who cares what Ben Hawkins says?
31831Who is it?
31831Who is there to arrest them?
31831Who lives there?
31831Who mustn''t-- Marcy?
31831Who said so? 31831 Who told you that improbable story?"
31831Who told you they were there?
31831Who was it?
31831Who was that onery looking chap I met along here a spell ago riding Beardsley''s old clay- bank?
31831Who were the robbers?
31831Who were they?
31831Who will he be? 31831 Who would n''t be?"
31831Why did n''t they take Marcy himself as well as the guns?
31831Why do n''t you bear a hand and get him out?
31831Why not?
31831Why, Marcy?
31831Why, Mark, when did this happen?
31831Why, Tom, are you crazy?
31831Why-- why, who could have sent it to you? 31831 Will it be quite safe for us to stop here long enough to have a snack?"
31831Will they know me, do you think? 31831 Will you come in?"
31831Will you not come and speak to my mother? 31831 Will you please bring them out?"
31831Will you take this lamp into the parlor while I admit them?
31831Will you tell me what he says after you have had a talk with him? 31831 Will you walk in?"
31831Wo n''t he hold his head in the air now?
31831Would it not be worse if we had no roof to shelter us in weather like this?
31831Would n''t Beardsley be hopping if he knew that one of his own negroes had upset his plans?
31831Would n''t you, if you had been in his place?
31831Would you bushwhack him?
31831Would you cruelly rob me of the only son I have left, and take him into battle? 31831 You are quite sure that the Yankee soldiers did not take Mose away, are you?"
31831You did not expect him to, did you? 31831 You do n''t say?"
31831You do n''t think those robbers set the buildings on fire?
31831You have been a smuggler, have n''t you?
31831You have n''t seen or heard anything suspicious, have you?
31831You know it, do n''t you?
31831You know, of course, that Beardsley was carried away the same night and for the same purpose I was? 31831 You mean that they would not permit the soldiers to molest you?"
31831You surely do not wish me to think that some of our neighbors brought them here to rob us?
31831You two ai nt furgot the stranger who popped up in Nashville all on a sudden like, about the time that Jack Gray came hum from Newbern, have you?
31831You want her to have some peace of mind, do n''t you?
31831You will be sure to arrange matters so that Mr. Webster will meet me on the river?
31831You writ him a pretty sassy letter, did n''t you?
31831You''re quite sure you are Union, are you?
31831After you had rescued us, why could n''t you go away satisfied?"
31831Ai n''t nary idee who they were, have you?"
31831Ai nt they done been here dis night?
31831And I can have my flag back, I suppose?"
31831And how did they treat my mother after they got into the house?"
31831And how is any one to find out for certain that his mother has money concealed in her house?
31831And how will you go to work to upset their plans when you do n''t know what they are?
31831And if so, will they do anything to me for warning you?"
31831And if that band should be broken up, who would there be to stand between his mother and the wrath of Captain Beardsley?
31831And if the Island should be captured, as Forts Hatteras and Clark were captured, then what?
31831And if you only came home last night, how does it come that you know anything has happened to him?"
31831And she did n''t say no lie nudder when she tol''me that these men coming up here some night to get that money, did she?
31831And was that poor fellow who was knocked down by the chandelier very badly injured?"
31831And when and how did you come up here?"
31831And where was the boy Julius when this happened?
31831And while I am gone you will deliver a couple of letters for me, will you not?"
31831And why did you come here instead of going home?"
31831Any one besides the Grays, I mean?"
31831Are there any rebels ashore between here and the place where those two pilots live?"
31831As for my roof, it''s a heap better''n the one them Grays will have to cover them in a week from now; you hear me?
31831But how can I tell you what to do?
31831But how do you know that he did not reward your fidelity by giving you some of his own money?"
31831But if she should see them snake you out''n the house and tote you off to jail, do n''t you reckon that would worry her?
31831But it will keep till we come again, wo n''t it, mother?
31831But tell me honestly, captain: Did Gray really show pluck on the night he got that broken arm?"
31831But who is he?
31831But why do you say he could win promotion by enlisting in our navy?
31831But yours is not the only Union family in this country, I hope?"
31831But, Marcy, you do n''t mean to say that those robbers were frightened from their work by the simple breaking down of the chandelier?"
31831By the way, where is Hawkins now?"
31831Ca n''t we have breakfast a little earlier, so that I can go to town?"
31831Ca n''t you see for yourself how he is bent almost double with rheumatism?"
31831Did Marcy Gray do it?"
31831Did he tell you what brought him home?"
31831Did n''t Shelby and Beardsley take particular pains to tell us that they would be away from home to- night?
31831Did n''t he tell you who we were?"
31831Did n''t she take some of her old servants into her confidence?"
31831Did n''t she, Tom?"
31831Did n''t they ask you why you did n''t pack up and run, too?"
31831Did n''t you see him with the Home Guards to- night?"
31831Did n''t you tell me a minute ago that you would like mighty well to have the handling of some of that there money?"
31831Did the captain know what was the matter with his arm?
31831Did they go off without getting any money?"
31831Did they go to Marcy Gray''s?"
31831Did they take your father''s pocketbook?"
31831Did you receive the proofs this letter speaks of?"
31831Did you speak of a Captain Benton just now?
31831Do I understand you to say that they came to your house this morning?"
31831Do n''t you see?
31831Do you reckon it would bust up your blockade running or not?"
31831Do you reckon that there thing will pull out or not?"
31831Do you reckon-- aint I always stood your friend-- yourn and your maw''s?"
31831Do you take me for a bank cashier?
31831Do you think he would go among the Federals if he was n''t afraid?"
31831Does n''t it beat the world how some people can hold their own with a whole settlement against them?"
31831Eberybody take Julius for a plum dunce; but I done fine you, Marse Mahcy, an''dere''s dat Morris----""Where are you?"
31831Has it struck you that the work must have been done by some one who belongs on your plantation?
31831Have n''t you something to show that you are a paroled prisoner?"
31831Have they been here yet?"
31831Have you any more money in your pockets?"
31831Have you forgotten the men who carried Hanson away in the night?"
31831Have you forgotten what was in the letter Beardsley received while he was in Newbern?"
31831Hawkins?"
31831He said not a word until Morris finished his story, and then he inquired:"Where did you hear all this?"
31831He thought he would rather die than do that, but how could he escape from Beardsley and reach the creek in time to meet Marcy there?
31831How come dey do n''t cotch you in de house?"
31831How did you know I was coming home to- night?"
31831How did you like the Yanks, what you seen of''em?"
31831How do we know but you or I may be marched off in the same way some dark night?"
31831How is your arm coming on by this time?"
31831How much did that pirate get for the_ Hollins_ and her cargo, any way?"
31831How much have you, mother?"
31831I am going to ride down to exchange a few yarns with Mrs. Brown; will you go along?"
31831I could have told him about the_ Hattie_, could n''t I?"
31831I hope you did n''t think I would let them few Yankees scare me away from my home altogether?
31831I suppose you had reason to connect Colonel Shelby with Beardsley''s schemes?"
31831I wanted to get on the blind side of him, so''t he would sorter confide in me for a friend, do n''t you see?
31831I wonder if I am acquainted with any of them?
31831If Marcy ai n''t a traitor, what''s him and his mother keeping that money of theirn stowed away so quiet for?"
31831If he and Marcy wanted to go to Newbern they would have gone by rail, would n''t they?
31831If they were coming off to enlist, as Marcy thought they were, would n''t that break up the band who held meetings in the swamp?
31831If things like these are allowed to go on, who is safe?
31831Is dat a fac''''bout de money, Marse Marcy?"
31831Is that my money?"
31831Is that so or not?"
31831Is that so?"
31831Is there any one about here that you know of who has reason to be down on you?
31831It was right in the point of Tom Allison''s tongue to say to Mark,"Did n''t I tell you so?"
31831Jack?"
31831Mark, do n''t you see that Mrs. Brown is looking for her pipe?"
31831May I ask if you know anything about it?
31831Me?"
31831Now what do you suppose they want here?"
31831Now what you going to do for an overseer?
31831Now, in trying to better their own condition, are they not making matters worse for their families, if they have any?
31831Now, is there any way in which I can stop that?"
31831Now, what Jonas gwine do?"
31831Now, what do you black ones know about the Home Guards?"
31831Now, where would be a good place to put Captain Benton''s letter?
31831Now, who do you reckon told him that a paroled prisoner lived in my house?"
31831Now, will you go peaceable, or shall I walk you along by the neck?"
31831Of course he is going back on the place to stay his time out?"
31831Oh, is there no way in which this dreadful state of affairs can be brought to an end?"
31831Oh, why was not Aleck Webster on hand to tell him what to do in a case like this?
31831Robbins?"
31831Shall I show this paper to mother, or not?"
31831She is n''t going to publish it to the world, is she?"
31831Should they tell the story of the attempted robbery, when questioned about it, or not?
31831Snuff and smoking tobacco are always acceptable, I suppose?"
31831Suppose he has the courage to defy them?"
31831That was all right, was n''t it?"
31831The latter faced them promptly, brought his piece to"arms port,"and called out:"_ Who_ comes there?"
31831The latter knew too much about him and his business, for had n''t he as good as confessed in the boy''s presence that he had been a smuggler?
31831The man pointed toward the bright spot on the clouds and said, in a voice that Marcy recognized this time:"Are the Home Guards out to- night?"
31831The robbers who went to your house, after the money they did n''t get, used me pretty rough, did n''t they?"
31831Then turning once more to the negro, he inquired,"Can you guide a squad of my men to Beardsley''s house and Gray''s to- night?
31831They came up in time to hear Mark Goodwin say:"Why did n''t you run that ship aground?
31831They did n''t do you much good, did they?
31831This is the time when every man----""How many buildings have you got in this part of the country?"
31831Well, what do you know of them?"
31831Well, which course did Buchanan decide to follow?"
31831Were you in any battles, Marcy?"
31831What are we coming to?
31831What are you going to do about it?
31831What did Beardsley have to say for himself?"
31831What did they have?"
31831What do you mean?"
31831What do you say?"
31831What do you think you make of the situation just as it stands?"
31831What do you want to do?"
31831What do you want to see it fur?"
31831What for the cap''n and all the rest of dem white trash gone to the Island this night?
31831What in the world made you do it?"
31831What is he captain of?"
31831What is he going to do to me?"
31831What is the use of putting it off?
31831What shall I call him?"
31831What shall we bring you when we come again, mother?
31831What will be the next thing on the programme?"
31831What you doin''hyar?
31831What''s become of Mrs. Gray''s overseer, Hanson?"
31831What''s happened to Hanson, I ask you?"
31831What''s the reason he must n''t be touched?
31831What''s the use of doing that?"
31831What''s went with Hanson, do you reckon?"
31831When did you get in?"
31831When this had been done, and the corporal had the belt in his hand, he demanded:"Now, then, what do you want?"
31831Where did they get a flag of our''n?"
31831Where did you get that hand, pilot, if it is a fair question?"
31831Where do you imagine he is now?"
31831Where is it?
31831Where were you when it happened?"
31831Where''s the schooner that Beardsley used to run the blockade in?
31831Which side was he on?"
31831Who are we going to whip, and what is the object of the thing, any way?"
31831Who dat?"
31831Who did you say wrote that letter?"
31831Who do you think wrote it?"
31831Who told you?"
31831Who would n''t be a soldier this fine weather?
31831Who''d''a''thought that me and you would ever seen any of them_ Hollins_ fellers on a war- ship?
31831Who?"
31831Why ai nt it safe?
31831Why could n''t we bushwhack Hanson, and not go nigh Plymouth at all?"
31831Why do n''t you men look around and satisfy yourselves of the fact?"
31831Why do n''t you shoot''em?"
31831Why do you ask?"
31831Will you show the commodore that you know what your duty is by beating those fellows up there?"
31831Would it be necessary for this company to march overland, or could it go the whole or a part of the way in boats?
31831You do n''t mean to say that your schooner is in the creek, do you?"
31831You do n''t often get letters from him, I suppose?"
31831You do n''t think there is anything on it, do you?
31831You have nothing against Marcy Gray personally----""I ai n''t, hey?"
31831You heah me?
31831You hear me?"
31831You heard Marcy tell me to put a uniform on before I presumed to speak to him again, did n''t you?"
31831You heard what that Federal officer said about the Home Guards, did n''t you?
31831You knew we were in the Sound, I suppose?"
31831You know all about the Home Guards?"
31831You know that big iron- clad of ours that''s been building up at Portsmouth, do n''t you?"
31831You know what that means?"
31831You think we are going to beat them, do you?"
31831Your men will not bother me if I go into the garden, will they?"
31831Your time''s your own, I reckon, ai nt it?
31831and if he did, which one of their gossiping neighbors told him about it?
31831and was there any danger that the men would be forced to fight their way?
31831and you do n''t mind a little mite of rain, do you?
27811A word before you leave; will you be a candidate for the legislature?
27811About what time may I expect you?
27811About what, Harvey?
27811About what, Mrs. Davis? 27811 After all, then, you do care for him-- despite your life- long reserve and apparent indifference?
27811And now, sir, what can I make or have made for you which will conduce to your comfort?
27811And the reason why you did not sleep? 27811 And what have you elsewhere, Irene?"
27811And what the deuce do you suppose I want with an office lad like yourself? 27811 And what was the value of that lot I asked for?"
27811And when, after years of toil, you win fame, even fame enough to satisfy your large expectations, what then? 27811 And you love her for your mother''s sake, I suppose?
27811And you really missed me, Queen?
27811Anything else?
27811Are you entirely alone?
27811Are you in earnest this time?
27811Are you ready to go now?
27811Are you ready to return home? 27811 Are you too proud to accept a home from me?"
27811Are you well? 27811 Are you, then, so very anxious to go to Virginia?"
27811Are your other despatches sealed up pictorially?
27811As Russell''s wife?
27811At least you will let me hear from you sometimes? 27811 But do you still cling to a belief in the possibility of Republican forms of Government?
27811Ca n''t you prove your innocence? 27811 Ca n''t you stay longer and talk to me?"
27811Ca n''t you take us, Wright-- Miss Grey, Willis, and myself? 27811 Can I assist you, Miss Huntingdon?"
27811Can I do anything for you, uncle?
27811Captain Wright?
27811Colonel Aubrey? 27811 Cyrus, is the doctor in his office?"
27811Did father go, too?
27811Did he ask to see me?
27811Did you receive a letter which I sent to your room?
27811Did you receive my last letter, giving an account of Mrs. Clifton''s death?
27811Did you see Colonel Aubrey after he was wounded?
27811Did you specify any branch of the service?
27811Do n''t you feel as well as usual this evening, Uncle Eric?
27811Do n''t you think, Irene, that Aubrey deserves to succeed?
27811Do you intend to send me from you? 27811 Do you know anything of your servant?
27811Do you know that I am dying?
27811Do you regard this trial as particularly hazardous?
27811Do you suppose that gravity of face is incompatible with sunshine in the heart?
27811Do you suppose they can distinguish me?
27811Do you think so, really? 27811 Do you think that they will not see you?"
27811Do you want the money now?
27811Doctor, are you busy this morning?
27811Doctor, how is Electra?
27811Doctor, when will you start?
27811Doctor, where is your horse? 27811 Does your majesty suppose I shall be satisfied with the tip of your fingers?
27811Dr. Arnold, do n''t you think you could spare that small sum without much inconvenience?
27811Electra, did you see Harvey last night?
27811Electra, who told you that you burdened me?
27811Electra, will you come?
27811Father, has Mrs. Aubrey ever injured you?
27811Father, have you forgiven me?
27811For what?
27811Frightened-- Dr. Arnold? 27811 Good morning, Mr. Campbell; are you particularly engaged?"
27811Has any intelligence been received this morning?
27811Has she recovered entirely?
27811Have I been so ill as to require that? 27811 Have you any engagement for this morning?"
27811Have you any old linen left about the house that could be useful among the wounded?
27811Have you been to Mr. Clifton''s studio?
27811Have you consulted Dr. Arnold about them?
27811Have you no brother?
27811Have you sent for the doctor?
27811Have you talked to Mr. Campbell about it?
27811Have you, then, fully resolved to remain single?
27811He has not come home yet; I wonder what keeps him? 27811 How are you, Uncle Eric?
27811How can you identify it, Aubrey?
27811How can you trifle with me, Irene? 27811 How do you know it ca n''t be helped?
27811How do you know that so well? 27811 How does he appear to be, Miss Irene?
27811How is Miss Huntingdon?
27811How is she to- night? 27811 How long have I slept?"
27811How long will you be in New York?
27811How many months do you suppose it will require to complete it?
27811How many orphans are there in the Asylum?
27811How much longer will you sit up?
27811How much would it cost to take her to New Orleans and have that celebrated oculist examine them?
27811How, Irene? 27811 Hugh, why will you affect to misconceive my meaning?
27811Huntingdon, what is it? 27811 I believe you thought me cold, heartless, and unfeeling then?"
27811I brought you some jelly; would you like a little now, or shall I put it away in the closet?
27811I hope not, Leonard; ca n''t you turn a little, and let me feel for the ball?
27811I say I shall join him very soon; do n''t you believe it? 27811 I should like to know who gave you leave to ride yesterday?"
27811I suppose you have heard of the performance for to- morrow?
27811If I retract all that I have said against you, and avow your innocence, will it satisfy you? 27811 If it is necessary, I will swear that it belongs lawfully to you; but what do you want to sell it for?
27811In the name of wonder, who is that? 27811 Irene, answer me one question, dear child: what does the future contain for you?
27811Irene, are we to walk different paths henceforth-- utter strangers? 27811 Irene, are you deranged?
27811Irene, are you ready to go home?
27811Irene, how long do you intend to keep me in painful suspense?
27811Irene, shall I take you home in my buggy?
27811Irene, what do you want? 27811 Irene, what does this mean?
27811Irene, will my presence here aid or comfort you? 27811 Irene-- Irene, take this for me, wo n''t you, dear?"
27811Is it light yet, out of doors? 27811 Is it true that her illness is attributable to nursing those people?"
27811Is she here? 27811 Is that all?"
27811Is the case so utterly hopeless? 27811 Is there any message which you would like for me to deliver to her, if she should recover consciousness?
27811Is there no hope?
27811It is bitter weather out; did you brave it for these? 27811 It would be dangerous to go to New Orleans now, I suppose?"
27811Louisa, how came your brother to be a minister?
27811May I ask if you are ill?
27811Mr. Clifton has a spare room, Russell; why ca n''t you stay with us while you are in New York?
27811Mr. Clifton, what shall I do without you?
27811Mr. Clifton, would you like to have your mother brought downstairs and placed beside you for a while?
27811Mrs. Davis, do n''t you feel that you will soon be at rest with God?
27811My dear Irene, have you, then, no love for me? 27811 My friend?
27811No; who is he?
27811Not even to restore your mother''s sight?
27811Now, sir, what shall I read this evening?
27811Oh, do n''t you, indeed? 27811 Philip, do you know me?"
27811Philip, what are you doing here?
27811Pity you? 27811 Pray, what is wrong about me now?
27811Russell, do you know it is midnight?
27811Russell, has anything happened?
27811Russell, what brings you home so early?
27811Russell, what is the matter? 27811 Russell, you have brought him home; where is he?"
27811Russell,''shall not the righteous Judge of all the earth do right?''
27811Russell? 27811 Shall I get you a pair of slippers?"
27811Shall I go back to the office?
27811Shall I read to you? 27811 Shall I speak to your aunt about this matter before I go?"
27811Shall the rich and the unprincipled eternally trample upon the poor and the unfortunate?
27811Shut their eyes to what?
27811Sir?
27811Sit down, Miss Irene; how are you to- day?
27811So you prefer utter strangers to your relatives and friends?
27811Suppose you had never seen me?
27811Thank you, Philip; how did he behave?
27811Then you admit that you have been harmed?
27811Then you are going to Mobile?
27811There is, of course, no light there, these war- times; but you see that tall, white tower, do n''t you? 27811 Was Russell wounded?
27811Was anything done?
27811Was it that horse; or how was it?
27811Was your father''s name Robert? 27811 Well, Queen, what is it?"
27811Well-- what is it? 27811 What are Mr. Young''s views concerning this war?"
27811What business have you here?
27811What did I tell you? 27811 What did they cost?"
27811What do those large square boxes in the hall contain?
27811What do you know of the family?
27811What do you mean by that?
27811What do you mean? 27811 What do you mean?"
27811What do you mean?
27811What do you want?
27811What do you want?
27811What has so changed that child? 27811 What have you done to him, Miss Huntingdon?"
27811What have you done with Aubrey? 27811 What is Miss Huntingdon to you?"
27811What is that for? 27811 What is the amount of that grocery bill you would not let me see last week?"
27811What is the matter, Irene? 27811 What is the matter, Wright?"
27811What is the tuition for her?
27811What is this worth?
27811What is troubling you so?
27811What is what? 27811 What letter?
27811What motive do you suppose prompted me to send for you on the eve of your departure?
27811What object have you in starting to- night, particularly in the face of a gale?
27811What progress are you making, Electra?
27811What put such a ridiculous thought into your head? 27811 What use do you suppose he had for it?"
27811What was the matter?
27811What will you do, Russell?
27811What would you do with it, Queen?
27811When did you arrive here last?
27811When do you expect to leave here?
27811When will you leave W----?
27811Where are you going, Aubrey?
27811Where are you going, Miss Huntingdon? 27811 Where are you going, Russell?
27811Where did you go last night when you left here? 27811 Where do you live?
27811Where have you been this long time, Harvey? 27811 Where is brother?"
27811Where?
27811Who gave you permission to visit that house?
27811Who has injured you?
27811Who is it, Electra?
27811Who told you that?
27811Why did you inflict so much pain on us both, when a word would have explained all? 27811 Why did you not apply to some other physician?"
27811Why do n''t you go to sleep, Irene?
27811Why do you shrink from me, my pupil?
27811Why do you want to know that?
27811Why need you hurry off? 27811 Why not, father?
27811Why so?
27811Why so?
27811Why, child? 27811 Why?"
27811Why?
27811Will not pure white content you, father?
27811Will you have it taken to- morrow?
27811Will you promise me positively that you will not go to your aunt?
27811Wo n''t you let me carry you to your room, or call a servant? 27811 Wo n''t you shut your eyes, my darling, and try to sleep?"
27811Would you like to have Mr. Bailey come and pray for you?
27811Wright, to what part are you bound?
27811Yes; but where is the miniature? 27811 Yes; but why do you ask?"
27811You believe that you will be happier among the marble and canvas of Italy than in W---- with me?
27811You certainly do n''t mean to say that she has inherited----?
27811You did not tell them the circumstances, did you?
27811You do n''t think she is any worse, do you?
27811You had started, then, before you knew that I was going to Europe?
27811You have finished your book, I see; do n''t you want another? 27811 You know it all then?"
27811You sent me no note all this time; why not?
27811You think my aunt is worse?
27811You will not allow me to persuade you? 27811 You would like a brother, however?"
27811Your uncle objects very strenuously to such a plan, does he not?
27811Accept the home which Mrs. Young would offer her, and leave him to suffer briefly, to sink swiftly into the tomb?
27811After relying on yourself so long, why yield to mistrust now?
27811An intolerable weight crushed her heart, a half- defined, horrible dread, and she asked, falteringly--"Are you willing to die?
27811And how is it that you wear a Confederate uniform?"
27811And now, how are you?"
27811And what is that whole confounded crew of factory savages in comparison with her precious life?"
27811Andrew, tell me the truth-- is father dead?"
27811Are n''t you afraid that I will work you more unmercifully than a Yankee factory- child, or a Cornwall miner?
27811Are you afraid to stay with me, and see me die?"
27811Are you classical, John?
27811Are you entirely out of wood?"
27811Are you getting frightened, Miss Grey?"
27811Are you going entirely deranged?
27811Are you going to leave home?"
27811Are you going to ride?
27811Are you ready?"
27811Are you satisfied with your wages, my honoured Shylock?
27811Are you sure no letters came for me?"
27811Arnold?"
27811As lint, or bandages?"
27811Aubrey is from W----; you know him, of course?"
27811Aubrey, can you help me raise him a little?"
27811Aubrey, suppose I shut my eyes to the watch transaction, and take you into my office?"
27811Aubrey?"
27811Be reasonable, and now tell me how you have employed yourself since we parted; what have you seen?
27811Because we can not be more, shall we be less than friends?"
27811Beside, who loved her as well as Henry Clifton?
27811Besides, what is it to you whether he marries her or not?"
27811But suppose they should seize your trunk?
27811But where have you been all this time?
27811But, Electra, you wo n''t leave me; surely you wo n''t leave me?"
27811By the way what shall I do with you?
27811By the way, Doctor, is there anything I can do for you in the sewing line?
27811CHAPTER XX A CANDIDATE FOR THE LEGISLATURE"Do n''t you know that even granite millstones finally grind themselves into impalpable powder?
27811CHAPTER XXIV IRENE''S ILLNESS"Do you see any change, Hiram?"
27811CHAPTER XXV RECONCILED"Well, Irene, what is your decision about the party at Mrs. Churchill''s to- night?"
27811CHAPTER XXXII WOMANLY USEFULNESS"Did you ring, Mas''Eric?"
27811Ca n''t you spend the evening with me at Aunt Ruth''s?"
27811Campbell?"
27811Can I see her?"
27811Can you bear to hear something unpleasant?
27811Can you control yourself if I take you to him?"
27811Can you give me what I ask?"
27811Child, have you been sick?"
27811Child, who are you?
27811Conscious of your affection for Aubrey, did he doom you to your lonely lot?"
27811Could you endure a wife who accepted your hand from gratitude and pity?
27811Could you sit up, if I placed you on my horse?"
27811Davis?"
27811Dear child, what moves you so?"
27811Did n''t I tell you to keep away from those people?
27811Did she suspect the truth, and fear that he might presume on her charity in bygone years?
27811Did you believe that I would marry Salome?"
27811Did you ever know a leopardess kept in a paddock, and taught to forget her native jungles?"
27811Did you ever see a contented- looking eagle in a gilt cage?
27811Did you notice her face?"
27811Did you suppose that I intended leaving you here for another month?"
27811Do I dream, or are you indeed with me?"
27811Do n''t I see how auntie labours day after day, and month after month?
27811Do n''t you know, you old cynic, that women ca n''t stand such flattery as yours?"
27811Do n''t you suppose that I would be in the army if I could not serve my country better by carrying in arms and ammunition?
27811Do those gloves suit you?"
27811Do you approve the plan?"
27811Do you hear what I say?
27811Do you hear?"
27811Do you know him, Huntingdon?"
27811Do you know that he has taken him into partnership?"
27811Do you suppose I intend to put up with your obstinacy all my life, and let you walk roughshod over me and my commands?
27811Do you suppose that he will be willing to leave town?"
27811Do you think you could hold my horse for me a little while?
27811Do you want to throw yourself into the jaws of death?"
27811Do you wonder at it in the present state of the country?"
27811Do you wonder that I am growing desperate?
27811Do you wonder that I hate that portrait?
27811Do you wonder that, like a lonely child, I stretch, out my arms toward it?
27811Does my walking annoy you?"
27811Does not affect parties, I believe?"
27811Electra Grey; and so like Robert?
27811Electra is in the next room; will you go in and speak to her?"
27811Electra, were I your brother, you would require no persuasion; why hesitate now?"
27811Father, do you think that a woman has no voice in a matter involving her happiness for life?"
27811Father, if I love them why should not I associate with them?"
27811Father, wo n''t you give me the money?"
27811For myself I care not, but for you, Russell-- my pride, my only hope, my brave boy?
27811Give it to me?"
27811Had Salome finally won her place in his heart?
27811Had he, indeed, ceased to love her?
27811Has Irene come home?"
27811Has she no husband to take care of her?"
27811Have n''t you heard of him?
27811Have you a vessel here, captain?"
27811Have you any fear of Eternity?"
27811Have you any message?
27811Have you any particular spite at my door, that you belabour it in that style?
27811Have you been out in the snow?"
27811Have you heard anything from Harvey since the troubles began?"
27811Have you kept your promise, to live so that you could at last meet the eyes of your God in peace?"
27811Have you seen him?"
27811Have you sent for John or old Nellie to carry me upstairs, like other bad boys sent to bed in disgrace without even the cold comfort of supper?"
27811He caught the fever from his mother, and his father says wo n''t you please come over?"
27811He crushed back the words; could he crush the apprehension, too?
27811He drew her back to the seat, and after a short silence said slowly--"Electra, are you afraid of death?"
27811He drew near and touched her cheek with his lips, saying tenderly--"How is my mother?"
27811He examined it a moment, and said rather dryly--"Well, how do I know, in the first place, that it belongs to you?
27811He is perfectly fascinating; do n''t you think so, Grace?
27811He saw only a form darkening the doorway, and, without looking up, called out gruffly--"Well, what is it?
27811He seems in trouble; but you do n''t feel like being bothered to- day, do you?"
27811He smiled, and added--"Will you promise to call no one?
27811He took the cigar from his lips, shook off the ashes, and asked indifferently--"What is the woman''s name?
27811He took the cold little hands tremblingly in his, and endeavoured to draw her back to the hearth, but she repeated--"What has happened?
27811Her fingers closed tightly over his; he saw an ashen hue settle on her face, and in an unnaturally calm low tone, she asked--"Is Hugh dead?
27811Here is a card containing her address; will you spare me the time to bring her here to- day?
27811His health had improved, and the heat of summer had come; why did he linger?
27811His mother watched him, and said cautiously--"Have you noticed that my eyes are rapidly growing worse?"
27811How are you to- day?"
27811How are you?
27811How could she endure them in future, yet how reject without wounding him?
27811How did he look?"
27811How do you feel since your nap?"
27811How have you and Louisa spent it?"
27811How is Electra?"
27811How is Harry?"
27811How is he, sir?"
27811How is the boy?
27811How much shall I give?"
27811How shall I tell him that Hugh is dead-- dead?"
27811How should she meet it-- how should she evade him?
27811How will you relish getting up before day, kindling your own fire, if you have any, making your own bed, and living on bread and water?
27811Hugh, what will you do with yourself?
27811I am going to send you to a boarding- school, do you hear that?
27811I can baffle even the Paris detective, much more the lynx- eyed emissaries of Lincoln, Seward& Co. Are you satisfied?
27811I can manage him well enough; and, beside, what do you care whether he breaks my neck or not?
27811I see you have not finished your book yet; how do you like it?"
27811I thought you disliked coffee?"
27811I thought you were coming to school again as soon as you were strong enough?"
27811I want to know what ails her?"
27811I will tell him, and, by way of crushing his vanity, add''_ de gustibus, etc., etc., etc._''""How old is he?"
27811I wonder whether it ever occurs to him that he once stood behind Jacob Watson''s counter?"
27811If I am content with my lot, who else has the right to question?"
27811If I feel this so keenly now, how shall I bear it when the glow of life fades into sober twilight shadows, and age creeps upon me?"
27811In a rickety schooner, in the teeth of a gale?
27811In what form do you want it?
27811Indeed I----""Mrs. Aubrey, do n''t you think it is your duty to recover your sight if possible?"
27811Irene made no reply, and, watching her all the while, Electra asked--"When did you see him last?
27811Irene, dearest, be generous, and tell me when will you give me, irrevocably, this hand which has been promised to me from your infancy?"
27811Irene, how do you feel, child?"
27811Irene, look up-- tell me-- did Leonard know this?
27811Irene, will you share my future?
27811Irene, your father hated her, and of course you know it; but do you know why?"
27811Is he in the city?
27811Is it father, or Hugh?"
27811Is poverty disgrace?"
27811Is such your will?"
27811Is that all?"
27811Is your mother at home?"
27811Is your soul at peace with God?
27811Knowing him as well as you do, can you suppose that I would ever have allowed him to suspect the truth?
27811Le Roy, asking him to call and see you this evening?"
27811Look here-- are you nervous?
27811Louisa is not sick, I hope?"
27811Maybe he can take us?"
27811My children-- what will become of them?
27811My friend, my master, will you accept it and forgive the pain and sorrow I have caused you?"
27811Now are you answered?"
27811Now, then, what is to pay?
27811Obviously, we have a better claim upon you than anybody else; why doom yourself to the loneliness of a separate household?
27811Of course you will go, sir?"
27811Once more I ask you, what shall I do with my life?"
27811Once more, for humanity''s sake, I ask, can you ride my horse to the rear, if I assist you to mount?"
27811Or, how would you like a game of chess?"
27811Pardon me if I ask, how you propose to conceal the despatches?
27811Presently Russell said--"But how did you happen there, Electra?"
27811Red and white and blue, certainly; but was it the ensign of Despotism or of Liberty?
27811Remember Irene; who is nearer to you, she or your grandfather?
27811Resting her chin in her hands she raised her eyes, and said--"Why do you not follow the doctor''s advice?
27811Rising, he looked carefully at the brilliant hues, and said, as he bent to inhale their fragrance--"Where did you grow such flowers at this season?"
27811Russell stood near the window, and said gently, pitying her suffering--"Electra, wo n''t you say good- bye?"
27811See here, Queen; what do you suppose brought Electra to Richmond?"
27811She held out her hand carelessly; he took it eagerly, and holding it up to the light said, in a disappointed tone--"Irene, where is my ring?
27811She saw the dim outline of a form sitting on the step, in the shadow of clustering vines, and asked--"Is that you, Philip?
27811She took the whey silently, and, after some moments, said--"Doctor, have you been sitting by me a long time?"
27811She turned her brown, sightless eyes toward the door, and asked in a low voice--"Who is it?"
27811Sir, are you so particular about everything you buy?"
27811Startled by his unexpected appearance, she recoiled a step or two and asked, rather haughtily--"When did you get home?"
27811Such was the legacy of shame which Russell inherited; was it any marvel that at sixteen that boy had lived ages of sorrow?
27811The captain was passing, but paused, saying in a whisper--"Is that you, Miss Grey?
27811The invalid frowned, and asked impatiently--"Ca n''t you buy as many of those coarse things as you want, without toiling night and day?"
27811The wounded man scowled as he recognized the voice and face, and turned his head partially away, muttering--"What brought you here?"
27811There, will that do?"
27811These travelled no royal road to immortality, but rugged, thorny paths; and who shall stay my feet?
27811Through what sort of metamorphosis do you suppose that I have passed, that every spark of self- respect has been crushed out of me?"
27811To meet me henceforth as a stranger?"
27811To what do you allude?"
27811Was Russell here last night?"
27811Was it Grouchy or Blucher?
27811Was it a spent ball?"
27811Was it money?"
27811What are you going to do with it?"
27811What business have you with asylums, I should like to know?
27811What can I do for you?"
27811What can I do for you?"
27811What do I care for promises?
27811What do you mean by catechising me in this way?
27811What do you mean by setting me at defiance in this way, you wilful, spoiled, hard- headed piece?
27811What do you suppose that it is?"
27811What do you want?"
27811What do you want?"
27811What has knotted up your forehead in that style?"
27811What hope have you?--what do you live for?"
27811What is her name?"
27811What is it that clouds your face, my little sister?"
27811What is it?
27811What is it?"
27811What is it?"
27811What is it?"
27811What is my wretched life worth now?
27811What is the appointment of which you spoke?"
27811What is the matter with Johnnie?"
27811What is the matter with my''plight''as you call it?"
27811What is the matter, Aubrey?
27811What is the matter?
27811What is the matter?
27811What is the reason that you have grown so grey and haggard?
27811What kept you out so late?"
27811What kept you?"
27811What number do you wish?"
27811What rigmarole do you want me to repeat to Leonard?"
27811What shall I do for him?"
27811What shall I do with my future?
27811What shall I have the pleasure of showing you?"
27811What shall I tell her for you?"
27811What the deuce do you want with it?"
27811What time will you come home?
27811When did you hear from Electra?"
27811When did you hear from Leonard?"
27811When do I expect to leave?
27811When the assurance you have given me to- day would have sweetened the past years of trial?"
27811When was he here?"
27811When will you come to see me?
27811Where are you going at this hour?"
27811Where are you going?"
27811Where are your parents?"
27811Where did Robert die?"
27811Where did he come from?"
27811Where did you come from?"
27811Where is Eric?"
27811Where is father?"
27811Where is he?
27811Where now?"
27811Where was he from?"
27811Whither will you look for happiness?"
27811Who belongs to your regiment?"
27811Who shall dare dispute the right your lips have given me?
27811Who will encourage and advise me when you go?"
27811Whom have I in the world but you?
27811Why are you hard and cruelly haughty only to me?"
27811Why are you not wearing it?"
27811Why do you ask?
27811Why not strangle her heart?
27811Why should I be?
27811Why should n''t I go there, sir?
27811Why should n''t I serve my country as well as younger men?
27811Why should you wish to force this marriage on me?
27811Why the d----l could not you let the child have a little peace?
27811Why withhold that melancholy comfort from me?"
27811Will you accede to my wishes, as any dutiful child should, or will you deliberately incur my everlasting displeasure?
27811Will you accompany me?"
27811Will you attend?"
27811Will you be silent about Cecil?"
27811Will you come with me?"
27811Will you give it to me?"
27811Will you go with me?
27811Will you go?"
27811Will you go?"
27811Will you marry Hugh?"
27811Will you not believe me, and calm yourself?"
27811Will you not remain, to oblige me?"
27811Will you please open the door?"
27811Will you promise?"
27811Will you sometimes go to her for my sake, and give her your friendship?"
27811Will you take care of them?
27811Will you watch with me the death of the year?
27811Will you?"
27811Will you?"
27811Wo n''t you try?"
27811Would not Mr. Watson lend you that little?"
27811Would you like to have it bathed in cold water?"
27811Writhing under his impaling eye, Mr. Watson said--"Have you applied to the witnesses referred to?"
27811Yes-- yes; and he is here?
27811You are good and kind, but does that prevent my feeling the truth, that you are working for me too?
27811You are snow- crowned, little one; do you know it?
27811You have seen Campbell, I suppose?
27811You have some influence with him; will you use it in my favour?"
27811You know Paragon, do you know me, Queen?"
27811You wanted to break her obstinacy, did you?
27811You were once dear friends; have you any message for him-- any word of kind remembrance?"
27811You will give me the privilege of writing to you?"
27811You will not need it soon, I hope?"
27811You would not relish going up to heaven after the fashion of a rocket, would you?"
27811are you, too, engaged in watching the fermentation of the political vat?"
27811can I do nothing for you?"
27811can you give me this consolation, without which my future will be dark indeed?
27811did n''t I positively order you to keep away from that Aubrey family?
27811did that idea never occur to you before?"
27811do n''t I know how hard you have to work; and how difficult it is for you to get even bread and clothes?
27811do n''t you hear her paddles?"
27811have you fully determined on this step?"
27811have you no gratitude?"
27811how am I to break this to my father?
27811how can you bring such grief upon me?
27811how did you contrive it, Louis?"
27811if any good is accomplished among those semi- savages up yonder, who is to have the credit?
27811is that what you trudged into town for?"
27811or do you suppose I am as deaf as a gatepost?"
27811surely you are not in earnest?
27811tell me how you are hurt?"
27811what are you about, Irene?"
27811what are you doing here?
27811what do you know about tongues, I should like to be informed?"
27811what have you gleaned?"
27811what is it?
27811what is the matter, child?"
27811what is the matter?
27811what will become of my poor little children when I am gone?
27811where are you hurt?
27811why did you not let me die, too?
27811why do n''t you have a light and some fire?"
27811why do n''t you speak, Russell?"
27811why have you locked that rigid cold face of yours against me?
27811with nobody but the servants?"
27811you are ambitious of martyrdom?
39473''Aunt Katie''?
39473A present? 39473 A present?"
39473About what?
39473And curly black hair?
39473And did he weigh about ninety pounds?
39473And did your bullet do the same thing with his rifle?
39473And how did you get word to him?
39473And how is it with you, Noel?
39473And leave me down in the room below, I suppose?
39473And what''s that?
39473And where is Cape Sable?

39473Are you wounded?

39473Aunt Katie? 39473 But have you noticed what there is in the wall above us?"
39473But how do yo''know?
39473But how will you do it?
39473But this Mr. Hilton who lives back in the house we passed, he''s not a soldier, you say?
39473But to whom are you writing such a letter as that? 39473 But what did he say?"
39473But you can not prove it?
39473But you say he''s a Union man?
39473But, yer Riverence,he said,"why should they treat an innocent man like that?
39473But,protested Levi, spreading both hands as he spoke,"a man has to live, ai n''t it?"
39473Can you tell me where Mr. Hilton lives?
39473Colonel, may I ask you who made that statement?
39473Dennis, what are you doing?
39473Did any one else tell you?
39473Did he say where he was when he was shot?
39473Did n''t I tell you that Noel was the best shot in Little Mac''s army? 39473 Did they find the paper hearts?"
39473Did yo''all hear any voices this mornin''?
39473Did you ever hear of Long John?
39473Did you find any of them?
39473Did you notice the magnolia tree growin''close to the side of the house?
39473Did you tell him about us?
39473Do I look like it?
39473Do n''t you believe what I have told you?
39473Do n''t you like pork?
39473Do n''t you think so, Noel?
39473Do you belong to Stuart''s cavalry?
39473Do you hear those voices?
39473Do you know how far the Union lines are from here?
39473Do you know that song?
39473Do you know the way out of this swamp?
39473Do you know what they will do with me?
39473Do you know where they are going?
39473Do you know where this corduroy road leads?
39473Do you mean Dennis O''Hara?
39473Do you often have an experience like that?
39473Do you really mean to say that a deserter was hanged to- day?
39473Do you really think so? 39473 Do you think you could hit it?"
39473Do you think you would know a Yank if you should see one?
39473Do you want me to go with you?
39473Do you want me to leave now?
39473Does dey grow right out of dere haid like dis?

39473I thought you were going to send for the chaplain?
39473If he does have horns, then you make up your mind he is a Yankee, do you?
39473If you can not make any money, you certainly do n''t stay here for pleasure, do you?
39473Is Sam going to be our guide?
39473Is he home?
39473Is n''t either of them in the army?
39473Is she after me, lad?
39473Is that all?

39473Levi, what have you got in that bag?
39473Levi,said Dennis solemnly,"how many pinsions are you drawin''?"
39473Nick,demanded Noel abruptly,"do you know any men around here who are friends of the Union?"
39473Now you say that Stuart''s cavalry has been thrown out in such a way that little Mac ca n''t get any information about what Lee''s plans are?
39473Now, how are you going to get that pig into the camp? 39473 Now, then, Levi, what did you find out?"
39473Now, then,he added more soberly,"are yo''all comin''on with me, or am I goin''with yo''all?
39473Oh, I see,said Noel slowly;"but if I do come he will take care of me for a day or two?
39473Run away from the army?
39473Sambo, is that you?
39473Shall we try to catch him?
39473Shure, Noel,he begged,"you''ll give me your promise now?
39473Shure, and what is it, if it is n''t singin''?
39473Then how can you live if you are losing money every day? 39473 There''s going to be a battle surely, is n''t there?"
39473To what regiment do you belong?

39473Who is this man with you? 39473 Who lives here?"
39473Who lives in this house?
39473Who said anything about yo''robbin''me? 39473 Who said anything about your leavin''?"
39473Who shall shoot first?
39473Who vas Stuart''s cavalry?
39473Who was he? 39473 Who was your colonel?"
39473Who''s this yo''have brought home, Jim?
39473Who''s yo''? 39473 Why are you going in there?"
39473Why do n''t somebody come out of the big house? 39473 Why do n''t yo''all go into the shanty and find out what it is?"
39473Why do n''t you eat it?
39473Why do n''t you tell them about it yourself, Dennis?
39473Why do you call for it in the night? 39473 Why do you stay, then?"
39473Why not?
39473Why not?
39473Why not?
39473Why wo n''t he be glad to see me?
39473Why, John, is that you?
39473Why, would you believe it?
39473Will you come with me?
39473Will you make some investigations, Colonel?
39473Wo n''t you please tell us what''s happened?
39473Yo''''re perfectly sure about that, be yo''?
39473Yo''ai n''t gettin''personal, be ye? 39473 Yo''did n''t see any signs of men being around?"
39473You are n''t afraid there will be more field- hands there?
39473You are sure, are you?
39473You both missed?
39473You call that singing, do you?
39473You do n''t?
39473You know I''m a Union soldier, do n''t you?
39473You know a right sma''t lot, do n''t you?
39473You say there are no men there?
39473You thought you would bribe me, did you?
39473You understand,said Noel,"that you are a prisoner?"
39473You''re a what?
39473You''re sure he''s a good friend of the Union men?
39473Abruptly he sat erect and, facing his guard said,"How long are these men going to be here?"
39473Abruptly the lanky negro broke in upon the silence by calling loudly,"Is dat yo'', Massa Little Ben Fowler?"
39473Advancing boldly several yards nearer the little building he stopped and in a loud voice said,"Who''s in there?
39473An''how about his ears?"
39473An''ye say he had only one arm, one leg, one eye?
39473And yet, he thought bitterly, what advantage would that be to him now?
39473And you say you are not a deserter?"
39473Are we going to be fed here?"
39473Are you going to try to go on to the army to- night?
39473Are you hungry?"
39473Are you pleased, both of you?"
39473Are you sure, Little Jake, you have n''t seen any Yankees that did n''t have any horns?"
39473At last, however, he looked up and said abruptly,"Well, what is it?"
39473At last, when a quarter of a mile or more had been covered by Noel and his companion, the young soldier stopped, and said,"What''s your name?"
39473Be still, ca n''t you?"
39473Before he acted, however, he turned once more to his prisoner and said sharply,"How long since you have been inside our lines?"
39473Before he arose from his seat at the table he turned again to his hostess and said simply,"Do you know where the Northern army is?
39473But could he convince the captain that his record was clean?
39473But what do you think of me epistle, anyway?"
39473But where was Dennis?
39473CHAPTER XII THE GIANT"Who''s that?
39473CHAPTER XIV THE SUTLER AS A GUIDE"Vat you do here?"
39473Calmly he asked,"And what may you want of me if you''re what you say you are?"
39473Can you help me?
39473De sojers is scourin''de country an''--""Do you mean Stuart''s cavalry?"
39473Did he have shining black eyes?"
39473Did n''t I tell you not to let any one come here?"
39473Did the man know anything concerning the skill of Dennis and himself with the rifle?
39473Did those poor fellows who were taken out this morning say they were not to blame?"
39473Discovering that Dennis was awake, Noel in a low voice said to him,"Dennis, how is it that any of us are left alive?"
39473Do yo''know where we''re goin''?"
39473Do you hear those guns?"
39473Do you know who he is?"
39473Do you write on both sides of the paper?
39473Finally, unable to resist her curiosity longer, she broke in:"What pa''t of the No''th do yo''all come from?"
39473Haf you seen him maybe?"
39473Have you niver heard that?"
39473Have you served long?"
39473Have you?"
39473He decided that he would be extremely cautious, and at once said,"In which direction are you going?"
39473He was, therefore, the more surprised when an hour later an orderly came to the tent and said,"Who is the man that asked to see the colonel?"
39473Hilton?"
39473How did you come?"
39473How do I know who you are or that you are what you tell me you are?"
39473How do yo''know he is a Union soldier?"
39473How far ahead is the captain?"
39473How far shall we have to go before we can be out on the firm road again?"
39473How long have you been here?"
39473How many Yanks might there be in it?"
39473How many got avay?"
39473I dinks dat you vill be glad to haf a Yankee soldier here, maybe?"
39473I have a statement here that you and-- your name is Noel Curtis, is it not?"
39473I mean how will you open it?"
39473I see Massa Little Ben Fowler--""Are there twenty of them?"
39473I sha n''t be able to pay you--""Who said anything about payin''?"
39473I was outside the lines--""What were you doing outside the lines?"
39473If they could do so well where rocks and steep ascents had to be overcome, what might they not be able to do in the valley beyond the mountain?
39473Is that a spade, or do me eyes deceive me?"
39473Is that you?"
39473Is yo''all thinkin''dat dey is comin''yere sometime?"
39473Let me see, what did you say his name is?"
39473Levi, have you a bit of a conscience at all left yet?"
39473Noel grasped fiercely the arm of Dennis as he heard the man outside ask,"Have you seen any Yanks around here?"
39473Now, please, mine goot voman, let me show you vat fine spectacles that I have?"
39473Now, then, Noel,"he explained,"you see that big oak tree just beyond the place where the Johnnies are lyin''?"
39473Says I, O Lord, what shall I do?
39473Should he remain where he was and wait the possible coming of Dennis?
39473Startled by the suggestion, Noel glanced sharply at his companion and said,"Fighting?"
39473Suppose yo''got caught right in the middle of the fight?"
39473The continually repeated question among the men,"When do we move?"
39473The conversation ceased, and with a sigh of relief Noel turned once more to Dennis and said,"When do we move from here?"
39473The first question among the living, however, was,"Where is the enemy?"
39473Then the story is true that you both were outside the lines?"
39473Then, unable longer to restrain her feelings, she abruptly inquired,"Now, then, what yo''all doin''here?"
39473They are all right, are they, Jim?"
39473This yere man is a Union soldier--""How do yo''know he is?"
39473To whom were you going to give that block of wood?"
39473Turning to the orderly Dennis said,"Take my gun, sergeant, and just let me catch the little spalpeen, will ye?"
39473Walking abruptly from his companion, Dennis approached the soldier and said lightly,"Are n''t you goin''to feed your prisoners pretty soon?
39473Was there anything of special interest?"
39473We fired at the same time, and what do you think happened?"
39473Were you ever down on the Peninsula?"
39473Were you spying on me?"
39473Wha''s dat yo''all is tellin''''bout anyway?"
39473Whar do yo''all come from?
39473What about him?"
39473What about it?"
39473What are you doing here?
39473What are you trying to do, anyway, Dennis?"
39473What be yo''all doin''here?"
39473What can we do, Dennis?"
39473What do yo''want toe see him fo''?"
39473What do you mean by this work?
39473What do you suppose will happen to him in the Resurrection?"
39473What for did you say that Noel and me was disarters?"
39473What for do you suppose he told the captain that we were desarters?"
39473What have you got in your bundle, Nick?"
39473What is it you think you hear?"
39473What makes yo''think I need glasses?"
39473What makes you think that?"
39473Where did you come from?
39473Where is the man who made the charges against you?"
39473Where is your geography, man?
39473Which would you do, drop the pig or keep off the fat darky?"
39473Who brought you here?
39473Who dat?"
39473Who is Levi?"
39473Who is she?"
39473Who is yo''all?"
39473Who''s that?"
39473Why do n''t you go out in the daytime?"
39473Why do n''t you out with it, yer Riverence?"
39473Why, only last night, if he had made a night march, he mought have got in possession of both Gaps--""What Gaps?"
39473Why, then, did they still follow him?
39473Without rising and still holding his prisoner fast to the ground, Noel said,"What are you doing here, Levi?"
39473Would he see him at Frederick City?
39473Would they pass the place or would they discover the mark in the road left by his horse when it fell?
39473Yo''all are not looking fo''my man, Sam, are yo''?"
39473You gife me von place, hey?"
39473You say you''re sure Mr. Hilton will be glad to see me?"
39473You shall no more tip ofer--""I say, sergeant,"said Dennis,"what are we to have for a target?"
39473You''re sure, are you, there is n''t anybody there now?"
39473Your name is Noel Curtis, is n''t it?"
39473[ Illustration:"DEY SAY YO''HAB HAWNS"] In his dilemma Noel turned once more to the colored man and hastily said,"Where are you going?"
39473[ Illustration:"WHO''S IN THERE?"]
39473how much pensions I gets for heem?
42328''Fo''de good Lawd on high, Mos''Grif, what de matter wif Mis''Kate? 42328 ''Yeh think thet''s agoin''t''cuah( cure) my ole man, doctah?''
42328Ah,he said, aloud,"how do you do, Bunnie?

42328Did you know I deserted? 42328 Did you know I was with Northern troops, Lengthy?
42328Do I care for it?
42328Do what? 42328 Do you care nothing for the good- will-- for the confidence-- of your old neighbors hack in Illinois?"
42328Do you mean that you were doing a sort of scout or advance duty for the reb-- the Confederates, when you met us, Lengthy?
42328Do you realize, Mr. Lincoln, that every man, woman and child in that whole country will recognize me-- and--?
42328Do you see that lounge over there?
42328Do you think I threw you the cracker so that I could the better shoot you? 42328 Feel jokey to- day, do you, you ridiculous Bob White?
42328Found it healthier for you to go West, did you? 42328 Free them and leave them in the state of their birth and of their love where their friends and kinsmen are?"
42328Griffith, what harm can it do? 42328 Griffith,"asked Katherine from the window,"how do you suppose they will take it?
42328Have you read-- I suppose you have not seen the papers lately?
42328He was your negro, Katherine, shall I let him go?
42328Here, Roy, dear, can you swallow? 42328 Here, why not let me put you down as a chaplain?
42328How can I write it to mother,he moaned--"how can I?
42328How far do you want me to go?
42328How much of a Union man are you?--''nough to help save it? 42328 How old are you, Roy?"
42328I''ll let you know----"Are you on the Confederate side, Lengthy?

42328Is that necessary, Mr. Lincoln? 42328 Is that so?
42328It will go a good deal easier with you, you infernal idiot, if you''ll out with your story, tell your side of it How''d this thing happen?

42328No; the real opening-- the road pass-- Let me see; what''s the scale of miles here? 42328 Nobody ai n''t hu''tted yoh, is dey, Mis''Kate?

42328You ai n''t sick, is you, Mos''Grif?
42328You promise to do all in your knowledge and power to enable them to get accurate knowledge and make their maps, do n''t you, Lengthy?
42328You think we better leave here? 42328 You will do your best as a guide in my place, wo n''t you?"
42328You''d make a tremendous soldier, now, would n''t you?--just out of short clothes?
42328You''ve sort of concluded that the job is worth pay, have you?
42328_ Is n''t_ she beautiful, father?
42328_ Let_ you? 42328 ''How''s that? 42328 ''Nything else?
42328AN UNOFICIAL PATRIOT By Helen Gardener Author of"Is This Your Son, My Lord?"
42328Ah, was not heaven and nature, indeed, singing the most glorious song the earth had ever heard or seen when she made this valley?
42328Ai n''t I been a good girl?
42328Ai n''t I nus de chillun good, an''did''n I pull Mos''Beverly outen de crick when he fall in an''wus mose drownded?
42328Ai n''t we better stop at dat big house over dar?"
42328Ai n''t yo''got no mussy, Mos''Grif?
42328All our suffering and trials and hopes and life?
42328And how do they get their foolishness, anyhow?
42328And so it was for conspicuous bravery at Fort Donaldson, was it?
42328And was not Jerry a Davenport?
42328And what good_ have_ you done?
42328And who shall say that aunt Judy was not wise in her day and generation?
42328Are you satisfied?"
42328Are you willing to receive the benefits of a free country which you are not willing to help in her hour of greatest need?
42328As a free negro left him without ties, it was only a question of time when he would commit some desperate deed, and yet what was to be done?
42328At last he said:"What yeh do hit fer?"
42328At least there was not to be a battle-- and there had been a capture, but who was killed?
42328Been having a freshet here, have n''t you?"
42328Been some pretty heavy rains around here, have n''t there?
42328Better try a little of Maria''s blackberry cordial?
42328Brain''em?"
42328But are you_ sure_ you want to leave college before you finish?
42328But for me, for_ me_ it is not right-- and yet what can I do?"
42328But how?
42328But how?
42328But just tell me how many slave- owners-- even if they wanted to do it--_could_ do as you have?
42328But now, what could be done?
42328But then-- but-- don''t you think God was pretty hard on them when He-- when He made them black?
42328But was n''t it delightfully funny?
42328But what business have I to advise you?
42328But what do you and I care about rains and currents?
42328But who is the happy girl, you young scamp?
42328CHAPTER VII.--WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE DONE?
42328Ca n''t you hear?"
42328Ca n''t you-- can''t I--- couldn''t we give him something to deaden--?
42328Can we trust this man, damn him?"
42328Can we_ never_ know what is right?"
42328Can you hear me, Roy?"
42328Can you hear me?
42328Can you hear me?
42328Can you-- do you-- want to leave your young sons and the sons of your neighbors on the far side of the dead line marked by that bridge?"
42328Carry you on the rolls that way?
42328Colonel, of-- Oh, your son?
42328Commission?"
42328Could Washington holdout?
42328Could they be depended upon, or was the fright now so in their blood that they would refuse to form in line again and obey commands?
42328Could they be relied upon?
42328D''yeh see that account in the_ Gazette_, yesterday, of the mob out there near Kansas City?"
42328Davenport?"
42328Did I tell you what a fine fat calf the brindle''s is?
42328Did n''t I ask you to go better protected?
42328Did n''t I nus yoh fum de time yoh was a teenchy little baby, an''was n''t ole Mis''and yoah paw sas''fied wid me?
42328Did n''t I tell you so?
42328Did n''t I--?"
42328Did n''t you know you were under_ me_?
42328Did the manumission papers give those who stayed behind to''Squire Nelson?
42328Did you know----?"
42328Did you read the issue of the 24th with my lurid remarks on''Breakers Ahead?''
42328Did you see how he turned suddenly to look again?
42328Did you see''Squire Nelson''s face?"
42328Did you see----?"
42328Do he mean dat we_ alls_ is got ter be free niggers, wid no fambly an''no big house an''no baby t''nus?"
42328Do n''t you remember?
42328Do you care for that, Lengthy?"
42328Do you fancy it is easy, or to my liking?"
42328Do you know whether they got''spoony,''after I left home?
42328Do you mean-- oh, Lengthy, do you mean that you will save me from this terrible trial?
42328Do you see any dead men on it?
42328Do you see terror- stricken horses struggling with and trampling down those wounded boys?
42328Do you see young sons like your own dragging bleeding limbs across it?
42328Do you think there is any hope?
42328Do you think----?"
42328Do you want to go by way of Nashville, now?
42328Does n''t seem so very dangerous, now, does it, mother?
42328Few- words- comprehends- th''--""Will you dry up?
42328Four?
42328Fourteen?
42328Get to the ferry before it is too dark to cross, ca n''t you?"
42328Go here?"
42328Had Beverly become openly an unbeliever in creeds and religions?
42328Had not He so lived?
42328Had not Paul and Timothy and the twelve?
42328Had not the Lord said to those whom He sent forth to preach that they must go from place to place leaving behind all family ties?
42328Had some angry native seen and assassinated Griffith?
42328Had the Guide been killed?
42328Had the letter killed the spirit?
42328Have you never been back?"
42328Have you no patriotism?
42328Have you no_ mercy_ upon our soldiers?
42328He has got a better mind than you have-- a far better one than I have-- why not let him use it?
42328He hoped that Beverly would be there, and yet-- after the sights and experiences of yesterday--_did_ he hope that Beverly would be there?
42328He looked out into the twilight,"That''s Ferris''s old mill and the Ferris house, is n''t it, Katherine?
42328He saw the movement and glanced within:"Why have I found grace in thine eyes that thou shouldst take knowledge of me-- seeing I am a stranger?"
42328He_ must._ Can I leave it all-- will you see that----?"
42328Him''n me qua''l''d''bout----""About shooting me?"
42328How can I?
42328How can I?"
42328How dare he?
42328How did it happen?''
42328How does a colonel''s pay strike you?"
42328How in the name of thunder do you suppose you and Katherine are going to live on your ridiculous salary?
42328How long ago was that?"
42328How long---- When did you say it was?
42328How old_ is_ Howard?
42328How sorry are you?--sorry enough to act?"
42328How will you dispose of them?
42328How''s that?''
42328I believe my postscript is a good deal longer than my letter; but sometimes our afterthoughts have more in''em than the originals, so why not add''em?
42328I wish----""''Twill?"
42328I''ve never read either one, but-- oh, tut, tut, mother, why not let him read it?
42328I-- no one ever-- every one loved you before, and now-- now-- did you see the faces, Griffith, when we left?
42328I---- Ca n''t I go just as I am-- just-- as----?"
42328I----""How sorry are you?"
42328If he left, what could Congress do?
42328If it is right for the laity, at least, is it not wrong for one who is an apostle of the Son of God, who had not where to lay His head?
42328In Washin''ton?
42328In short, was not the way in religion and in social order of our fathers far the better way?
42328Is Roy twenty?"
42328Is it dinner- time already?"
42328Is it you or your great- grandchildren?
42328Is n''t it a little premature?"
42328Is not the better way always that of the man who owns and rides in the carriage?
42328Is that so, Katherine?
42328Is the offer still open?"
42328Just answer me that?
42328Just suppose Pete had killed Bradley''s Ned, then what?
42328Later on had it not been so with the many until wealth and love of ease and the things of this world undermined the true faith?
42328Like to know what he''d do with all those niggers?
42328Lincoln?"
42328Lincoln?"
42328Mis''Kate, you ai n''t gwine ter''low dat is you?
42328Must all fly?
42328Must more hundreds of them suffer defeat and death for the lack of what_ you_ can give them?
42328Must not one''s own soul, mind and heart furnish the key, as well as the medium, to aid in real devotion?
42328Must the President escape?
42328Must the President fly?
42328My friend, have you decided what to do with Milt and Phillis?
42328No conflict of soul was before him, the dawn he had heralded-- the brilliant day was come, was it not?
42328No one knew what to expect on the morrow, Would the city be bombarded from the heights beyond?
42328No?
42328No?
42328Now, ca n''t yez ate the rear av thim berries?
42328Now, just suppose Ned dies and Bradley sues me?
42328Now, we ca n''t issue rations to men who do n''t exist-- ain''t doing some sort of service, do n''t y''see?
42328O, Roy, Roy, my brother how can I ever tell mother?
42328O, you will, will you?
42328Oh, doctor, ca n''t you save him?
42328Oh, you will, will you, old wet nose?
42328Once he said:"You do n''t suppose my position is particularly agreeable,''do you?
42328Or straight home?"
42328Pension the whole infernal lot?
42328Presently Lengthy opened his eyes and asked feebly,"Whar''s the Parson?"
42328President?"
42328See?
42328Seed whar he wus pintin''--Few words----""Are you a Union man, Lengthy?"
42328Selim had all he could do, did n''t you, old fellow?
42328Sell them?
42328She lowered her voice to a mere whisper:"Can God want you to be so cruel as this, Griffith?"
42328She''s a poor afflicted creature and--""Lawsy, honey, anybody kin see dat she''s''flicted; but wat I axes yoh is, what fer she do dat away at me?
42328Should black men be free men?"
42328Some mo''''er dat dar town terbacker?
42328Stay dar?
42328Suddenly Griffith turned to his youngest son:"Howard, how old are you?
42328Suppose we did n''t own and provide for and direct all these niggers, what on earth would become of''em?
42328Tastes better, does n''t it?
42328That is simple, is it not?"
42328That was a pretty stiff current, was n''t it?
42328That''s not the kind of a mind Beverly has got-- and suppose it was, what right have we to warp and limit its action?"
42328The Government Guide?
42328The end of the sacrifice had come, but for what?
42328The sharpshooters had done their work-- but who was it--_what_ was it that lay across those two horses that they were leading?
42328Their own God condemned the act, did he not?
42328Then he whispered,"Th''other fellers-- our soldiers-- th----""You mean the Confederate troops, the Southern men?"
42328Then looking up suddenly:"Have you?"
42328Then suddenly, as he folded the telegram and placed it in his in- side pocket,"Mr. Lincoln, did you know I am a deserter?"
42328Then, besides, where''d they go-- the niggers?
42328Then, suddenly,"When will you start?
42328They had slain the Christ, had they not?
42328They were both thinking of Shiloh, so why mention the name?
42328To- night?"
42328Toh ai n''t hu''tted, is yoh, honey?"
42328Two were walking-- were they the assassin and his companion?
42328Want to go''long?
42328Was Beverly still reading Thomas Paine?
42328Was Jerry an Episcopalian?
42328Was dat yo''teasin''yoah po''ole Aunt Phillis wid dat fedder?
42328Was it a bear or a hand organ?
42328Was it that reply which decided darkeyed Katherine not to farther tease her lover?
42328Was it worship to simply read or repeat the words of another?
42328Was the Guide deceived as to the safety of this position?
42328Was the Northern army really so disorganized, so demoralized?
42328Was there an ambush?
42328Was this the patient, compliant wife who had willingly given up her fortune and her home to satisfy_ his_ conscience?
42328Was this the silent, demure, self- controlled Katherine-- this very tall, angry woman?
42328Wat dat is wat Mos''Grif gwine t''gib me?
42328We ca n''t have him with us-- why, why not let him stay here?"
42328We''ve got to arrange so you will be treated as a regular, and an important prisoner of war-- do n''t you see?"
42328Well, do you, Kath''rine?
42328Were not all of the Davenports members of the established order in all things?
42328Were the brave fellows who had so gallantly and cheerfully marched out not brave after all?
42328Were there no reinforcements?
42328Were they outnumbered?
42328Whah''s my Mos''Grif''s house?
42328What He gib yoh my Mis''Katherine fo''?
42328What I done t''yoh now?
42328What I fotch yoh up foh?
42328What I want wid''em, hey?"
42328What are sons to_ me_ now?
42328What dat Mos''Grif gwine ter gib us?
42328What de mattah wif all two, bofe of yoh?"
42328What did he believe?
42328What did it mean?
42328What did you expect?
42328What fo''is yoh gwine ter tun me loose dat a way?
42328What he gwine t''gib_ me?_ New yaller dress?"
42328What he gwine t''gib_ me?_ New yaller dress?"
42328What in the devil are you talking about?
42328What in the name of common sense would they have?
42328What in thunder do people want us to do?
42328What is a country?
42328What is gained?
42328What next?
42328What possible difference can it make to John whether you pay for him or whether he had come to you as the others did?
42328What was it all for at last?"
42328What was it all for, if_ this_ is the end?
42328What was it all for?
42328What was the solution?
42328What was the use?
42328What was to be done?
42328What would you have done?
42328What you say?
42328What''s that the jedge said?"
42328What_ is_ it right to do?
42328What_ is_ it right to do?"
42328When she built these mountains, and threaded that little river over the stones?
42328When----?"
42328Where did he happen to get that?"
42328Where should he go?
42328Where would they get enough to eat?
42328Where''s that great- grandfather of yours that I saw here the last time we crossed jour ford?"
42328Where?
42328Which one of my boys is killed?
42328Which one?"
42328Which-- which one?"
42328Who am I to go to for help in managing my land and my niggers if I ca n''t depend on you for a single thing?
42328Who gwine ter take cahr ob her widout me?"
42328Who missing?
42328Who was killed?
42328Who was shot?
42328Who was there to say?
42328Who wounded?
42328Who?
42328Who?"
42328Who?"
42328Why do n''t they read their Bibles if they know enough to read?
42328Why do n''t they read their Bibles, I say, and shout if they want to, and attend to their own business?
42328Why had the Northern troops met such a fearful disaster?
42328Why should they fight over it?
42328Why, little woman, how would you or I take freedom if it were given to us?"
42328Why?"
42328Will you volunteer, or shall I----?"
42328Would it be shelled and burned?
42328Would that settle or only perpetuate and shift the question for which you are suffering and sacrificing so much?
42328Would the enemy invade Washington?
42328Would the fresh troops arrive in time?
42328Would these panic- stricken men rally?
42328Would they have to fight or retreat?
42328Would you rather be alone-- with father?"
42328You did n''t expect''em to_ like_ it, did you?"
42328You infernal-- What does this mean?"
42328You think they will attack?"
42328You''ve lost a lot of blood and stood on that leg too long, but----""Whah''s Parson Dav''npoht?"
42328_ All_ of us, mother?
42328_ How_ will it all end?"
42328_ Let_ you be an editor of a fiery free- soil paper out in Missouri, hey?
42328_ Should ministers of his Church_ buy and sell black men?
42328_"And what are words?
42328and handing it to Miss Katherine he asked:"Will you read and answer that question for me, Miss Katherine?"
42328can you hear me?
42328cried Beverly,"What can I do?
42328cried Katherine,"Howard or Beverly?"
42328dear?
42328do n''t they?
42328give them to your wife''s and your own people?
42328or he''ll get a dose of---- Did you fire at our men?"
42328this map''s-- Where did you get this map?
42328wat I done tole you?"
42328what could it all mean?
42328what did God A''mighty gib yoh all dis lan''an''houses an''money fo''?
42328what next?
42328what was the use?
36644A little? 36644 Ah, Compton, is that you?--just be kind enough to throw open that gate for me, will you?"
36644Ah, have you seen it so?
36644Ah, indeed, are they?
36644Ah, you have been here to- day, then, before? 36644 Already quite recovered from yesterday?"
36644And did you have your dear little boy with you all the time?
36644And do you not believe that the rebels will reach Philadelphia?
36644And pluck them himself?
36644And that is about this scar?
36644And what am I to do?
36644And what do you make of my character, Elsie, as shown by my handling of the rose?
36644And what does the shudder mean, little one?
36644And what ground then?
36644And what shall I do with the horse?
36644And what_ would_ you do?
36644And when they have taken New York?
36644And who the deuce asked you to do it, I should like to know?
36644And would you_ dare_ to believe my brother-- the man you have pretended to love-- a_ coward_?
36644And would_ that_ grieve you?
36644And you are walking already again this morning?
36644And you did_ not_ believe them?
36644And you expect to support yourself upon what you call''your property?''
36644And you_ dared_ to trifle with me, girl, when I asked you a plain question?
36644And, now that I think of it-- wasn''t that the name-- Townsend-- of the fellow who leaped into the Pool the other day over at the Profile?
36644Angels? 36644 Angels?
36644Any news of any kind? 36644 Are ye gaein''out, sir?"
36644Are you mad, or am_ I_? 36644 Are you much hurt, sir?"
36644Are you sure? 36644 As how?"
36644At_ your_ rate of progress? 36644 Because what?
36644Broke any thing?
36644Business!--what business, Carlton,_ can_ be sufficient to keep you at home when they seem to need you so much?
36644But before you take any steps in this matter--"Conditions already?
36644But come, Townsend,Rowan added,"will you not push on with me a little further ahead and let these slow coaches come up at their leisure?"
36644But let me ask you-- is not your riding just a little bit careless?
36644But suppose poor Carlton_ should_ be dead, after all, father? 36644 But the business you wished me to do?"
36644But what ava has he been doin''to ye? 36644 But what has_ become_ of the crazy old philosopher?"
36644But you are not going with the regiment?
36644Can thee deny what is in this letter, Eleanor Hill?
36644Can thee say that Doctor Philip did not do right, if, as thee says, he wrote this letter?
36644Can you not take me away-- do something for me? 36644 Can you swim, sir?
36644Certainly, and with many thanks, but how?
36644Dead?
36644Despise?--are you speaking of Carlton-- of my brother?
36644Did you notice that?
36644Did you ring, sir? 36644 Difficulty?
36644Do we ask you women to decide what we shall do, where we shall go, and where we shall stay?
36644Do you not feel the change in the motion of the boat? 36644 Do you remain on the top yourself?"
36644Do you see what a poor miserable wretch I am?
36644Do you think that three months has done this? 36644 Do you understand what I say?"
36644Dull? 36644 Expose him?--kill him?"
36644Fair- dealing? 36644 Five years, indeed?
36644Fought me? 36644 Good heavens!--what is that?"
36644Good heavens, ladies, what is the matter?
36644Has she said as much?
36644Has she?
36644Have you ever had reason to believe that I could not and would not protect you, if need came, against all the world?
36644Have you? 36644 Have you?"
36644He is not going? 36644 Here and now?"
36644Here? 36644 How can I, until the boat of to- morrow, when-- when it may be too late altogether for my purpose?
36644How could he dare to utter such a falsehood?
36644How did you come here, pet?
36644How did you go up-- in_ what_ kind of a vessel did you say, madam?
36644How long has it stood so, I wonder? 36644 How long since you were abroad, madam, may I ask?"
36644How much are we worth, mother?
36644How_ could_ I tell you all, Mr. Bladesden? 36644 I lie, do I?"
36644I lie, do I?
36644I love another-- do you hear me? 36644 I would do any thing in the world to help you, Carlton; but what_ can_ I do?"
36644I? 36644 I?
36644I? 36644 I_ am_ rich, and what is that to you, grand- daddy?"
36644I_ was_ going to excuse myself; and yet I should not be afraid to make a small woman''s- wager that you err in at least half of your calculation?
36644If it is to be done at all--"Why, confound the man!--what ails you? 36644 If so, where is the body?"
36644If this is true, do you know what you are making of me? 36644 Is Doctor Philip Pomeroy at home?"
36644Is all that true?
36644Is it possible?
36644Is it true?
36644Is that all-- all? 36644 Is there any thing finer than this, at this moment, among them all?"
36644Let me see-- what is the name of that river that takes you up to Paris?
36644Look at other people-- don''t_ they_ respect the wishes of those they expect to marry?
36644Lost him? 36644 Love her?
36644Lying alone?
36644Many waiting to go up?--or do they nearly all go around to the Glen, this season?
36644Margaret Hayley, are you a born fool?
36644Me? 36644 Mother, is it with your wish or approbation that Captain Coles has just made me another offer of his heart?"
36644My son got off his horse to fight you, you say?
36644Nearer to the divine than_ love_?
36644Needed?--what do you mean, Margaret?
36644No-- has he a scar?
36644No-- no-- that is not my sister-- that is-- heavens, can this be possible, or am I dreaming? 36644 Oh, he was a coward this morning: now he is a thief, is he?
36644Oh, shame!--can nothing be done to save him?
36644Oh, yes, how can I tell it?
36644Oh, yes, where_ is_ Merrill?
36644Oh, you can not place me, eh?
36644Parting? 36644 Rambling nonsense?"
36644Recovered from yesterday? 36644 Ride down with Miss Vanderlyn?
36644Safe, eh? 36644 Shall I call him and ask him to take a share in our dinner?"
36644Shall I help you down, Miss Hayley?
36644Shall I tell you?
36644Shall we go in, mother?
36644She sent for them? 36644 She?
36644Sorry? 36644 Sorry?"
36644Still at the Profile?
36644Than_ any_ other person?
36644That is Eleanor Hill-- why do you not ask her the question?
36644The-- the-- the-- which is it, now, the Danube or the Amazon?
36644Then it never gets_ very_ cool down here?
36644There is blood upon the grass-- whose is it?--my son''s?
36644Think so?
36644Think we would go so far as that and spend so much money, and not go up that there?
36644Though, by the way, the Captain has a very pretty woman with him-- I wonder if there should not be a lady at the bottom of the trouble, as usual?
36644To give to Carlton?
36644To go into danger-- perhaps to death?
36644To roll you five games of ten- pins?
36644To see_ me_?
36644To_ you_, poor girl?
36644Traitors?
36644Was that money ever repaid to the railroad company?
36644We have a rope here that will hold you: can you catch it and hold on or tie it around your body?
36644Well, the application of your thought to yourself and to me?
36644Well, what if I did dislike him? 36644 Well, what of_ him_?"
36644Well?
36644Well?
36644Were you ever?
36644What are these, and what I am to do with them?
36644What consequence, if you have?
36644What did he steal?
36644What did you hear?
36644What do you call yourself just now?--''Horace Townsend''still?
36644What do you make of all this, Doctor?
36644What do you mean, you scoundrel?
36644What do you_ want_ here?
36644What do_ you_ know about it?
36644What has happened? 36644 What has happened?"
36644What is that to me? 36644 What motive could any one possibly have for coming to a place like this in disguise and with a feigned name?"
36644What of it? 36644 What the deuce is it all about?"
36644What? 36644 What?"
36644What_ is_ it, father?
36644What_ is_ this riddle?
36644Where is Elsie?
36644Where is your son, now?
36644Where? 36644 Where?"
36644Who are they, Captain Coles? 36644 Who called you here, woman?
36644Who let out that infernal dog?
36644Who the---- are_ you_, Horace Townsend as you call yourself, to put in your remarks when_ gentlemen_ are in conversation?
36644Who then?
36644Who thought your little head was so philosophical, Elsie?
36644Why do you ask, after all that you have known of our attachment and our engagement?
36644Why hotter now than at any other time?
36644Why, child, are you crazy? 36644 Why?
36644Will you promise, and keep that promise, that Captain Hector Coles shall not say one more word to me of love or marriage, while we remain together? 36644 Yes, but what is that to you, woman?"
36644Yes-- why not?
36644Yes-- you were in London: did you go up the Pyramids?
36644You are going away to the Glen House, to- morrow or the next day, are you not?
36644You are going now? 36644 You are sick?
36644You are sure of the grounds of your sorrow?
36644You are sure, Kitty, that you saw my son lying dead?
36644You are sure, are you not?
36644You certainly can not hold on to the rocks alone, when they are so nearly perpendicular, can you?
36644You did, did you?
36644You have made no arrangements for getting over, I suppose?
36644You have remembered it, have you?
36644You landed at Paris direct from the steamer, I suppose?
36644You mean when they-- when the steamers take fire and burn?
36644You were in London, of course?
36644You wo n''t come back, then?
36644You, father? 36644 You?
36644You?
36644Your last hope?
36644Your son was expected to take up his old commission and go out with one of the regiments, was he not?
36644_ My_ letter? 36644 _ What_ do you know?"
36644_ You?_The exclamation was abrupt and surprised, as if she had not before thought of a separation of routes.
36644_ You_ punish him? 36644 ***** Shall there not be one glimmer more of sunshine after the dark night and the storm? 36644 Ai n''t we rich, I should like to know? 36644 All the big boys and some of the big girls hated him, as he strode up the aisle with his broad, hearty:''Most ready to go home, Kitty?"
36644Am I going mad?"
36644Am I haunted, or has this trouble turned my brain and am I going mad?
36644And by the way--"they were at that moment a little apart from the others, and Rowan spoke low--"do you know where your head lay when you came to?"
36644And he bees so handsome and so much like a rale gintleman!--how could he dhround?
36644And how had it been occasioned?
36644And must not the event, debarred in one channel, have found inevitable way in another?
36644And now you are dying to know why I wish to roll ten- pin balls at this particular moment?
36644And of what dreamed they?
36644And quite a moment elapsed before he said, in a voice frightfully hoarse:"What do you want here, Nathan Bladesden?"
36644And what could be done to save him?
36644And what did he see?
36644And what did he there?
36644And what was the Flume like, to those who that day saw it for the first time?
36644And will she ever forgive the deception?
36644And yet was he not?
36644And yet what had he given her, to win so much?
36644Any more accidents or startling events?"
36644Anybody we know?"
36644Are not all these things ordered for us?
36644Are you indeed sorry that I am not going into-- that I am not going to be absent from you?"
36644Are you satisfied?
36644Are you seriously hurt?"
36644Are you well enough to go?"
36644As to when we are going up-- do_ you_ know?"
36644At last Margaret asked:"Did you ever hear of this before?
36644Brand-- for that heaven''s sake, why do you say this, to kill us both?
36644Brand?
36644But I hope--"That intended lecture was lost to the world, as so many others have been; for Rowan interrupted him:"Are you poor?"
36644But if the men looked badly, what shall be said of that which should have been the fairer portion of the cavalcade?
36644But the man who had read the patriotic secret of the Mountain Sphynx felt the weight of that hour-- who could doubt it?
36644But who shall describe the expression of hopeless sorrow and despondency which dwelt upon hers at that moment?
36644Captain Hector Coles heard, but made no answer, as why should he, for was he not one of the country''s defenders and a brave man by profession?
36644Close beside the vehicle, a man easily recognizable as Dr. Philip Pomeroy, was engaged in a hand- to- hand( or is it hand- to-_mouth_?)
36644Cries of:"All safe, eh?"
36644Did ye say that Carlton Brand was dead?"
36644Did you ever hear of the mode in which the two Irishmen conducted their little debate, which ended in a couple of broken heads?"
36644Did you ever know all the reason why each of us feared and hated the other so much?"
36644Did you hear the particulars, then?"
36644Did you notice the scar on his cheek, coming away down here to the neck?"
36644Directly he put her away, though not roughly, looked her full in the face, and asked:"Where is your brother?"
36644Do you deny it?"
36644Do you know what I want?"
36644Do you know_ why_?
36644Do you love Margaret-- really and truly love her?"
36644Do you remember that I did?"
36644Do you remember, Margaret, that I shall soon have a brother, and you a lover, separated from us and in terrible danger?
36644Do you see how that flanking battery to the left is raking every thing, and the one in front is throwing beyond Kil''s position?
36644Do you see that handkerchief?
36644Do you think that I could sit at that table, as I feel just now, more than one meal longer, and think of the vacant chairs?
36644Do you understand me now, and know why your words should never have been spoken?"
36644Do you understand me?--do you promise me, Eleanor?"
36644Does the-- do the same obstacles stand in your way that stood there two years ago?"
36644Does_ that_ separate us?"
36644Good heaven!--what_ has_ happened to you?"
36644Had he a double life as well as a double nature?
36644Had he really not noticed her before his attention was called by the mention of the name?
36644Has he been torturing you again?"
36644Has thee nothing more to say to me?"
36644Have you been attacked?--beaten?
36644Have you got the old woman here?"
36644Have you heard--""That my son was killed and lying here?
36644Have you not seen more closely than_ that_?"
36644Have you seen him?"
36644Have you your glasses with you, or shall I read it?"
36644He did not reply to her last suggestion, but asked, after an instant of hesitation:"Where is Margaret?"
36644He had erred terribly in meeting the one, and paid the after penalty: how could he muster fortitude enough to meet the other?
36644His first words were rough and peremptory:"Why do you move in that manner, girl, when you come to see_ me_?
36644How could there be?
36644How could they be?
36644How do you do, Margaret?"
36644How is your head?"
36644How?"
36644How?"
36644How_ could_ I publish my own shame?
36644I believe that I am not mistaken in supposing that I am speaking to an American?"
36644I cannot!--dare not--""_ Dare_ not?"
36644I have not been rough, have I?
36644I only thought--""You thought that when I asked one question, I meant another, did you?"
36644If I bid you stay for_ my_ sake, will you do it?"
36644If she had for that instant intended to do so, she thought better of it and jerked out:"How should I know?
36644Is he in this house?"
36644Is not a little leaven of unquestioning tenderness necessary to season the cold, hard, crystallizing mass?
36644Is that cursed doctor gone?"
36644Is that new ideal found already, and found in a man so wrapped in mystery that his very name has never yet been spoken in your presence?
36644Is that the fact?
36644Is that your sister?"
36644It would seem most probable that--""That he is still alive?"
36644Look me in the face-- do you see any thing like jest or trifling in it?"
36644Margaret Hayley did not say"What, eaves- dropping?"
36644Margaret Hayley was treading upon dangerous ground: did she know it?
36644May I tell you what really occurred yesterday on the mountain, so that you may better understand the next version?"
36644Neither spoke for one moment, then the old lawyer held out his hand and said:"You wonder, Margaret, why I sent for you?"
36644Now do you wish to go?"
36644Oh, how did you hear it?
36644Oh, what will become of me?"
36644Once more-- is he here?"
36644Or had there been some unaccountable personation?
36644Personal adventure must hurry on, like the ever accelerating course of the goaded and maddened nation, and eliciting the same inquiry--_whither_?
36644Petersburgh?"
36644Shall I not see you again?"
36644She was interested in her new acquaintance, beyond a question: was she something more?
36644She?
36644Since creation?"
36644Somebody has insulted or hurt you?
36644Stay till the afternoon-- cannot you do so, just as well as not?"
36644The first inquiry of Townsend, as they shook each other warmly by the hand, was:"Been up Mount Washington yet?"
36644The old trouble, Carlton?"
36644The one glance of anxiety would have been very natural: the other, compounded of interest only, may have been likewise natural enough-- who can say?
36644The ties of blood might be rudely broken, but did not the hand of true friendship stand ready to assert itself?
36644Then away to Birmingham, and there-- but why weary with repetition when a succeeding fact can be so well indicated by one that has preceded it?
36644Then seeing the others:"What, Margaret here with father?
36644Then the fancy( might it not be called madness?)
36644Then the little one spoke:"Margaret, do you know of what I have been thinking for the last two minutes?"
36644Then they are--""Keep still, or I will tell you no more-- they are two from whom you have been estranged, I think-- your father and--""My sister?"
36644Then with the voice much softened:"Is Margaret Hayley in the house, do you say?"
36644There is no hope for me?--I am dying?"
36644There, have I told you enough?"
36644There, will_ that_ do?"
36644They make angels of such people as you-- do you know it?"
36644To what was all this tending?
36644Townsend?"
36644Townsend?"
36644Under whose arm?"
36644Upon what terms will you give me that paper and promise never to speak of it or of the affair to any one without my consent?"
36644Was old Elspeth Graeme indeed a wierd woman, and had the brute changed to be her familiar and avenging spirit?
36644Was that man my father?"
36644Was the riddle really so obscure to him as he pretended?
36644Was the very name under which he wooed and sought to win, his own?
36644Was there not cause, indeed, for that general cry of pitying horror from above, which answered the cry of agony and terror from below?
36644Were there still more echoes to be added to the two that had already made the place notable?
36644What am I to fear?
36644What am I to think?"
36644What are storms to them or to that other class to which reference has before been made-- the rough Ariels of the newspaper Prospero?
36644What did it really see?
36644What do you mean by my letter?"
36644What do you want of him?"
36644What has that slip of paper to do with the subject of which we were talking?"
36644What is even the deepest personal peril by sea or land?
36644What is it like?"
36644What is that to you, sauce- box, when we are engaged to be married?"
36644What is that you say?"
36644What is the matter with you?"
36644What is to hinder him?"
36644What keeps you so long?
36644What marvel that the past became a dream, the present dull and unendurable, and only the delirious future worth a wish or a thought?
36644What marvel that the untutored heart beat faster than its wo nt, when that golden gate of paradise was opened in expectation to her eyes?
36644What more natural than that in falling and being caught, she should have thrown her arms round the stout neck of the Illinoisan?
36644What must have been the feelings of Margaret Hayley, if, as we have had reason to believe, her first love had faltered in favor of a new ideal?
36644What the deuce_ are_ you?"
36644What those of Captain Hector Coles when he believed that a disgusting and audacious rivalry had been removed at least_ two thousand feet_?
36644What tie binds you?
36644What tongue could have spoken what the heart so sadly reverberated to an inner sense that was subtler and better than hearing?
36644What was he doing?--collecting strength, or looking for it where it ever abides?
36644What would not Horace Townsend have given for a grip of the throat of Captain Hector Coles at that moment?
36644What, are you going away already?"
36644What, blood?
36644What, we say, would the listener not have given to hear_ that_?
36644What_ is_ the matter, Kitty?"
36644When he did recognize it, the lawyer( that man seems to be eternally watching the other, does he not?)
36644Where is Charon, I wonder?"
36644Where was the overweening pride of Margaret Hayley?
36644Who does not know how much the more dreadful is that second doom?
36644Who knows but some stranger may have come by in a wagon, seen the body lying on the ground, picked it up and carried it away to the Coroner''s?"
36644Who knows?
36644Who will lend me a sword?"
36644Why did you send for me?"
36644Why did_ he_ tell me so much before he went to Europe?
36644Why, what else should it be?
36644Why?"
36644Will you follow me?"
36644Will you hear me?"
36644Will you pardon me if I do not deal altogether in complimentary badinage, but speak a few words of earnest?"
36644With a quick:"Will you allow me?"
36644Would you be kind enough to give me another of yours?"
36644Yes, why not?"
36644You do n''t think that I need to go and give myself up, eh?"
36644You have n''t arranged this affair yourself, eh?
36644You have travelled in Europe, I believe?"
36644You know that Eleanor Hill came back here yesterday, and you have come to take her away from me to- day?"
36644_ You_, feeble and dying?
36644and a bigger one enlightened his ignorance with:"Why, did n''t you see?
36644and"Well, how did you like Mount Washington?"
36644can this be true, even of_ him_?"
36644do you really believe that personally she likes me well enough to marry me if my circumstances were nearer her own?"
36644do you think so?
36644he said,"do you know what you said of me the other night and again the other day?
36644oh, my God, have I lived to hear that word applied to_ me_?"
36644or was the face one which he did not recognize while the name bore a talisman that commanded all his interest?
36644prejudgment?"
36644said the voice of"H. T.,""or did the Flood hurl those masses of stone into so unaccountable an accidental position?"
36644so long?"
36644why not?
36644yes, why not?"
49529And Bailie Peyton said ye were all right, and Bill here called ye a coward and a liah?
49529And what did you find?
49529And you are really going into the Confederate army, father?
49529And you laid the matter before him in all its bearings?
49529And you want me to play the coward and flee my country in this her hour of greatest peril? 49529 Are you not a little too severe on the newspaper fraternity, General?"
49529Are you sure the Yankees are coming?
49529Are you sure you looked well?
49529Are you sure your horse is as wise as you think?
49529Aunt Jennie, how are you?
49529Bonds and all?
49529But even if this is so, why does not the sentinel give the alarm?
49529By whose authority do you stop us?
49529Calhoun, you do n''t mean it?
49529Calhoun,exclaimed Fred, in surprise,"was it you with whom I had that night fight?"
49529Can you reach Nashville, Fred?
49529Captain,said Alice, somewhat ruffled by his manner,"what is it between that boy and you?
49529Dat so, massa?
49529Did you notice the boy?
49529Do any of the soldiers ever come this way?
49529Do n''t want to tie me up again, does he?
49529Do you dare to disobey me?
49529Do you hear that, Cal?
49529Do you know how many men Buell has?
49529Do you mean to say you refuse to contribute a hoss to the cause? 49529 Do you think I can forget it, after what you have just done for me?
49529Do you think he will try that?
49529Do you think so?
49529Do you think so?
49529Do you think that boy was a spy?
49529Father,he asked,"I have always been a good son, obeying you, and never intentionally grieving you, have I not?"
49529Father,he moaned,"father, can you not forgive?
49529For what?
49529Forgive you for what?
49529Fred, are you telling the truth?
49529Fred, do you despise me? 49529 Fred, what do you mean?"
49529Fred, why ca n''t you think as I do? 49529 Fred, you will not give me up to be hanged?"
49529Fred,suddenly asked Calhoun,"is there any possible way for me to keep from going to prison?"
49529Frederic, you have a good horse?
49529General, will you turn this picket business over to me?
49529General,asked one of the citizens present,"have you any idea of how the story of your insanity started?"
49529Gentlemen, I think we shall be fully prepared for Mr. Tompkins and his''Knights of the Golden Circle,''What say you?
49529Going to join the Yankee army, are you? 49529 Has the same boy been in the habit of selling vegetables to the pickets?"
49529Have you any idea yet how they are captured?
49529Have you any way of retreat mapped out?
49529Have you got the revolver and cartridge belt?
49529Have you heard anything?
49529Have you learned what you wished?
49529He countermarched; coming slow,he said, as if to himself,"Great God, what does he mean?"
49529How about renegades like myself, Cal? 49529 How did I know about the letter of Major Hockoday, if he had not sent me?"
49529How did he come? 49529 How do I know you tell the truth?"
49529How do you know it?
49529How do you know that I am not in love with her now?
49529How do you know that?
49529How is it, my boy?
49529How is that?
49529I have seen it in a picture? 49529 I see only five of you,"he said;"where are the rest?"
49529I wonder where the Union men are,he growled;"are they cowards that they keep silent?"
49529Is he at home?
49529Is that the way you greet your cousin?
49529Is there one present that will not die for such a land?
49529Is this the way you keep your oath?
49529Is your father a Union man?
49529Is-- is father-- a-- prisoner-- or-- killed?
49529Is-- is-- Charles killed?
49529It is not possible he has deserted, is it?
49529It is you, Fred, is it?
49529It''s you, is it?
49529Matter? 49529 May I accompany the colonel?"
49529Must do what, Governor?
49529My brother?
49529Neutrality of Kentucky,sneered Nelson;"of whom did you learn that twaddle, youngster?
49529Nonsense, Morgan,replied Major Hockoday,"what ails you?
49529Not for five dollars?
49529Of what, uncle?
49529Oh, then General Zollicoffer is camped near here?
49529Prisoners?
49529Reckon you are a stranger, or you would have knowed the place?
49529Richard,sobbed Mrs. Shackelford,"are you not too severe with the boy?
49529See here, Mary,he asked,"you would like to be free, would you not, just like a white girl?"
49529Selim,cried Calhoun,"how do you like that?
49529So,said Nelson, turning to Calhoun,"you ran for the South to win, did you?
49529Struck you?
49529Tell what?
49529That soon?
49529That was no murder-- that was a fair fight, was n''t it?
49529Then he would not hear to the proposition at all?
49529Then this is the place where the President of the United States was born?
49529This, then, was your idea, Fred?
49529To whom am I to deliver this letter?
49529Told him what?
49529Was he a bright boy, and did he seem to notice things closely?
49529Well, my boy, what would you do?
49529Were you not a little extravagant in your demands?
49529What can I do? 49529 What command?"
49529What did he say?
49529What did they fire on you for?
49529What do you mean?
49529What do you propose?
49529What do you think, General?
49529What does it mean? 49529 What does this mean?"
49529What does this mean?
49529What for?
49529What if they should come here?
49529What is all this fuss about?
49529What is it you wish?
49529What is it, sir?
49529What is it?
49529What is it?
49529What is the next move?
49529What is this?
49529What kind of a looking man was the leader of the Yanks?
49529What of it?
49529What were you doing up here if you are one of Johnson''s staff?
49529What will you do then?
49529What''s that?
49529What''s the row?
49529When did you leave Nelson?
49529Where am I? 49529 Where are the Yankees?"
49529Where are you going?
49529Where did you say you were from?
49529Where have you been, Fred?
49529Where is General Buckner?
49529Where is your companion?
49529Where is your home?
49529Where?
49529Where?
49529Who are you, and where did you come from?
49529Who comes there?
49529Who did it?
49529Who is he?
49529Who is that man?
49529Whom did you relieve?
49529Why Fred, you here?
49529Why not, Fred?
49529Why not? 49529 Why not?
49529Why not?
49529Why, Cousin George, you here, too?
49529Why, Nelson, what''s the matter with you any way?
49529Why, man, what do you mean? 49529 Why,"he asked himself over and over again,"did the fortune of war bring us together?"
49529Why-- why did you come then? 49529 Will it be hanging or shooting, Sergeant?"
49529Will you give me your reasons?
49529Yes, but what of that?
49529Yes, my son, why not? 49529 Yes, your humble servant; did n''t you adopt me as a brother?"
49529You are all right in that section of the country, are you not?
49529You are not going to enter the enemy''s lines as a spy, are you? 49529 You are, are you?"
49529You do not, can not mean that?
49529You do, do you, my fine young fellow? 49529 You have heard nothing yet, have you, General,"the commodore was asking,"of that request we united in sending to General Halleck?"
49529You have heard of President Lincoln, have you not?
49529You say the captain called him by name?
49529You think that your information as to numbers and position is absolutely correct, do you?
49529You will call on your lady love before you return?
49529Your name?
49529After Fred had let sufficient time elapse to regain his breath, he said in a low tone:"You are Captain Conway of the State Guards, are you not?"
49529After all, was Ferror to do nothing, or were his words a hoax to raise false hopes?
49529After all, was the North wrong?
49529After riding about two miles, Fred reined up and said:"They have not dodged us, have they, boys?
49529And Fred was about to ride on, when a man came running up with a fearful oath, and shouting:"That''s you, is it, my fine gentleman?
49529And drove you away?
49529Are we not of the same blood, the same language?
49529Are you not doing everything possible to take Kentucky out of the Union?
49529Are you ready?"
49529Are you sick?
49529As it is, will you tell me what you meant by saying that you were racing for the old flag and had to win?"
49529At last he asked:"Fred, what do you want?
49529Boys, it will be fun to try our marksmanship on these youngsters, wo n''t it?"
49529Buell smiled at his irate general, and asked:"And what would you do, Nelson?"
49529But how in the world did you two happen to come together?"
49529But how many American boys and girls know the name of the daring young man who tore up the track, or the brave fireman who brought back the news?
49529But how?
49529But to change the subject, where does my knight- errant expect to go for his next adventure?"
49529But what do you know about this?"
49529But what was the fuss between you and that boy?
49529But when no attack came, and no other shot was heard, the confusion and excitement began to abate, and every one was asking,"What is it?"
49529Cal, do you think a just God will ever let a Confederacy be successful whose chief corner- stone is human slavery?"
49529Can I do anything for you?"
49529Can I?"
49529Can we not see the bravery, the heroism of the deed, even though it has dashed our fondest hopes to the ground, shattered and broken?
49529Can we save that city for the Union?
49529Can you make Nicholasville by ten o''clock?
49529Can you not do it, or get word to their command?"
49529Can you not take me to your heart and love me once more?"
49529Captain Conway stared at Fred in astonishment; then said in a fierce whisper,"How do you know that?"
49529Colonel Williams, who had been looking on with stern countenance, now asked:"Who was guarding the prisoners?"
49529Could Frederic Shackelford reach Nicholasville in less than three hours?
49529Could he have seen this in a dream sometime?
49529Could it be Calhoun?
49529Could she in any manner secrete him in the room during one of the meetings?
49529Could this be the same people he had seen a few months before?
49529Cowards are they who would keep the pledge of neutrality given by the State?
49529Did you bring full dispatches with you?"
49529Disowned you, did he?
49529Do you see those two men in the rear of the car, one in the uniform of a Federal officer, the other a keen looking fellow?"
49529Do you think such men as Nelson, Fry, Bramlette, Woodford, and a host of others I might name, are cowards?"
49529Fred assumed a tragic air, and said in bloodcurdling tones:"Where was the recreant lover that he did not protect her?
49529Fred laughed, and then little Bess came toddling up to him, with"Tousin Fed, do''ankees eat''ittle girls?"
49529Fred rather enjoyed it, and he continued:"And how is my friend Captain Conway?
49529Fred read the circular carefully, as if reading between the lines, and then asked:"It is the real meaning of this call that you wish?"
49529Fred remained in deep thought for a moment, then looking up, said:"Uncle, do you really fear for Aunt Jennie and the children?"
49529Fred was startled, and stammered,"You-- father-- you?"
49529Fred, do you know who the sentinel was?"
49529Fred, will you, will you not think of this?
49529Frederic, do you want to do your country a great service, something that may save Kentucky to the Union?"
49529Had a shadow of the future floated before her?
49529Had anything happened to Ferror?
49529Had he a dim realization that the prayer of his son would be granted, and that he would not live to see the Union flag floating over Nashville?
49529Had he done right?
49529Have I not heard those fellows plotting?
49529Have a chaw of terbacker?"
49529Have n''t you been talking for years of the rights of the South?
49529Have n''t you encouraged the enlistment of soldiers for the South?
49529Have you any news to cheer me up?"
49529Have you not sworn to guard my life as sacredly as your own?"
49529He cast his eye over the group of officers standing around him, and then suddenly asked:"Where is Captain Bascom?"
49529He felt that to be captured by Conway was death, for had not the captain sworn to kill him on sight?
49529He forgot everything in his passion, as he fairly hissed:"And you are Lieutenant Nelson, are you?
49529He noticed Hugh more closely, and then suddenly asked:"Have I not seen you somewhere before, my boy?"
49529Hear those shrieks?
49529How came you here?"
49529How can you keep your oath by murdering me?"
49529How did you find the old gentleman?"
49529How did you happen to be on the street?"
49529How did you receive it?"
49529How is everything at Somerset?"
49529How was it at Louisville during this time?
49529How was it with General Thomas?
49529How would you like to go there, and see what you can learn?"
49529I see your arm is in a sling; been in a skirmish?"
49529I wonder what he was doing out here any way?
49529If I did my duty I would cry,''Here is a spy,''and what then?"
49529Is it Captain P. C. Conway of whom you speak?"
49529Is it right then for those who favor the South to try and force Kentucky into the Southern Confederacy against the will of a majority of her people?"
49529Is my horse where I left him, at the stable in the woods?"
49529It was some minutes before the excitement abated, and every one was asking,"What is it?
49529Just from General Nelson, Fred?"
49529Major Shackelford looked up in surprise, a frown came over his face, but he held out his hand, and said,"Fred, you here?"
49529Morgan, is that you?
49529Mr. Shackelford looked astonished, and then a smile of joy passed over his features; could it be that Fred was going with him?
49529My boy, if it needs be that we must die, would it not be better to die under the folds of the old flag than under the bastard stars and bars?"
49529Nelson smiled at his ardor, and then said:"I believe you stated that that meeting is to take place in Scott county the 17th?"
49529Nelson was slightly taken back by the answer; then an amused look came into his face, and he said, in a bantering tone:"Liked it, did n''t you?"
49529Now, do you think I can raise my hand to help destroy the Union they helped to found, and then to perpetuate?
49529On the other side, how can I, a man Southern born, raise my hand against my kindred?
49529On what grounds do you base your belief that the enemy are so well acquainted with my situation and strength?"
49529See that tree yonder, nearly a mile away, where the Danville and Nicholasville roads cross?
49529Shall we attack them?"
49529Spear at home?"
49529The colonel started violently, and then asked in a broken voice,"Fred here?"
49529The commodore broke the silence by asking:"You went to see him personally once on this matter, did you not?"
49529The general noticed him, and asked:"Well, my boy, what is it?
49529The household was already astir, and Fred''s ring was at once answered by a servant, who cautiously opened the door and asked,"Who is dar?"
49529The major stared at him a moment, and then roughly asked:"What is your name, and what are you doing here?"
49529Then from the sentinel out in front came the short, sharp challenge,"Who comes there?"
49529Then he asked,"Where did you learn of all this?"
49529Then why not I?
49529Then you were at Mill Springs?"
49529Thomas sat looking at the boy a moment, and then said:"It is nothing rash, is it, my boy?"
49529To their surprise, Nelson held out his hand, and laughingly said:"How are you, my young Hotspurs; and so you want to see me hanged, do you?"
49529Was Robert Ferror going to aid him to escape?
49529Was there anything in it, or was it a fool''s errand?
49529What about those arms?"
49529What army?"
49529What can be expected of a general with every newspaper in the land yelping at his heels like a pack of curs?
49529What could it mean?
49529What did Major Hockoday say for me to do?"
49529What did it mean?
49529What did it mean?
49529What do you mean?"
49529What do you mean?"
49529What do you say, Fred?"
49529What do you say, an English or a German university?"
49529What do you say, boys?"
49529What does it mean?"
49529What had startled them?
49529What has happened?"
49529What has happened?"
49529What has kept you so long?"
49529What have I done?
49529What have you got to say for yourself, anyway, you---- little rebel?"
49529What think you, gentlemen, of the program?"
49529What was he doing there?
49529What will become of them?
49529When Fred joined Nelson an hour later the general looked at him sharply, and asked:"What''s the matter, Fred?
49529When Morgan heard the story, he said:"So Buckner is at Elizabethtown, is he?
49529When Mr. Shackelford saw Fred, he excused himself a moment, and calling him, said:"Where in the world have you been, Fred?
49529Where have you been?
49529Where is Grant all of this time?
49529Where is it?"
49529Where was his cousin Calhoun?
49529Where was his father now?
49529Where?
49529Which side should one be on?"
49529Why am I better than others?
49529Why can you not admit as much for me?
49529Why did not Major Hockoday write me this order?"
49529Why did this war have to come and separate us?"
49529Why do you use me so?
49529Why is it a disgrace to fight for the old flag, to defend the Union that Washington and Jefferson helped form, and that Jackson defended?"
49529Why not confiscate him for the good of the cause?"
49529Why was it not taken advantage of?
49529Why was it that the fiery and impetuous Nelson was so late in getting on the field?
49529Will you not go with me to my father''s and stay all night, and I will ride with you to Nashville in the morning?"
49529Would he be too late?
49529You are expecting arms for your men, are you not?"
49529You would not have me break that promise, father?"
49529[ A] But how was it with Fred; had he escaped unhurt from that volley?
49529did he order that volley fired at me?"
49529do n''t you remember me?"
49529has your father consented?"
49529he roared,"are they all idiots at Washington?
49529is it you, Lieutenant?"
49529my boy, is that you?"
49529what is it?"
49529what will we do?"
49529where did you come from?"
49529why must the two sections fight?"
46720''What do they say?
46720Again I ask you, are you faithful to me?
46720Alibamo,said Hayward, raising his head,"what think you will be my fate?"
46720Am I dreaming?
46720Am I weeping?
46720And are you not so? 46720 And my sister?"
46720And that dream has given you hope, has it not?
46720And what have you accomplished?
46720And when approaching the federal camp, do you suppose she would take it off, unless it was of her own accord?
46720And who are you?
46720And why not?
46720Anything important?
46720Are our horses ready?
46720Are there any more who wish to share his fate?
46720Are you hurt?
46720Are you ready to depart?
46720Are you sure those who rescued her were Union soldiers?
46720Are you to go with us?
46720Are you to return?
46720Are you_ sure_ of that?
46720Asboth?
46720But are you faithful to me and my cause?
46720But how is my friend Mac?
46720But my brother?
46720But of Fremont-- what of him?
46720But to what end, brother? 46720 But what do you mean?"
46720But where is that red- skin?
46720But you are not afraid of the rebels, are you, George?
46720But you know Price has sent spies into our camp, and if any of them should be present and recognise you?
46720But, how have you succeeded, captain?
46720Ca n''t Massa Nettleton stay?
46720Can he walk?
46720Can we do it?
46720Can you distinguish the rebel general''s headquarters?
46720Can you not speak? 46720 Captain, do you know me?"
46720Could you not save her?
46720Did he hurt you very much?
46720Did he know you, general?
46720Did you not hear him speak the name of Harry Hinton?
46720Did you see or hear anything of Branch?
46720Do n''t what?
46720Do n''t you see much to fight for? 46720 Do n''t you wish they would come upon us to- night?
46720Do you intend to remain here?
46720Do you know me, captain?
46720Do you know me? 46720 Do you know that red devil?"
46720Do you know the federal army are within two days march of this place?
46720Do you know where she is?
46720Do you know where you are?
46720Do you not wish to live for your sister''s sake?
46720Do you object to Captain Branch?
46720Do you remember the style of his tent?
46720Do you think I have?
46720Do you think I''d be such a darn skunk as to sleep when I might be doing something? 46720 Do you think it has improved his condition?"
46720Do you_ fear_ their revenge, Captain Branch?
46720Fall- leaf, have you nothing to say?
46720Fremont will be in the advance, I suppose?
46720George, are they alive?
46720George, what are you afraid of?
46720George, where is Nettleton?
46720Go where?
46720Had we not better wake the captain, Miss Alibamo? 46720 Has he been seized by those ruffians?
46720Has he spoken at all?
46720Has the person I wrote for arrived?
46720Have I been dreaming?
46720Have I time?
46720Have you any tidings of our friends?
46720Have you discovered nothing-- no signs of friends?
46720Have you never entertained any suspicion that my sister was with Price?
46720Have you received any definite order?
46720Have you received any intelligence of my sister?
46720Have you received any word from our friends?
46720He was their friend, was he not?
46720Here, captain!----Won''t-- won''t I do just as well? 46720 How can it be prevented?"
46720How can you ascertain which way they have taken her?
46720How did you ascertain who he was, at the time you met him?
46720How did you get possession of this document?
46720How did you get with me at all?
46720How do you know this?
46720How forced-- by whom forced?
46720How is Fall- leaf?
46720How is your wound, captain?
46720How many are there?
46720Hunter?
46720I am not welcome, I suppose?
46720I do n''t care if I do?
46720I was thinking of your sister?
46720I would prefer the tent should be filled with serpents?
46720If by chance you are rescued and removed to the Union camp, do you not wish her sent for?
46720If you die, do you mean, brother?
46720If you were to meet the enemy in battle, would you run?
46720In what particular?
46720In what way?
46720Injured badly?
46720Is Adjutant Hinton here?
46720Is Captain Hayward sufficiently recovered to converse?
46720Is Davis here?
46720Is he conscious?
46720Is not that preferable to death?
46720Is not this young man to accompany us? 46720 Is there no way to humble him?"
46720It is_ not_ true, but false as hell, and Hayward knows it is false?
46720Its beauty? 46720 Johnson, why are you weeping?"
46720Mamie-- darling sister, do n''t you know me?
46720May I be permitted to attend upon him?
46720Much to live for? 46720 My feet are too big?"
46720My good friend, do you sympathize with this noble captain?
46720Nettleton, how have you managed to remain with me so long without being suspected?
46720Nettleton, will you shut your mouth?
46720Nettleton,said Hayward, addressing his attendant,"have you heard me spoken of among the soldiers?"
46720Not Swasey''s nigger?
46720Not in this stronghold?
46720Now, adjutant, what were you going to say?
46720Of the past? 46720 Of what did you dream?"
46720On whom?
46720Orderly, do you think we can successfully contend with their army?
46720Sartin shuah ob dat, massa adjutump?
46720Shall I describe what I see?
46720Shall I go along?
46720Shall I send a bullet through his brain?
46720She is a Spanish beauty, then?
46720She knew you, then?
46720She_ would_ come if sent for, would she not?
46720Sigel and Fremont?
46720Sturgis?
46720That I should dream thus, brother?
46720That singing?
46720That voice again?
46720Then why do you clutch your sword as I approach?
46720Then why would you run_ from_ the enemy?
46720Then you are a stranger in our camp?
46720Then you are convinced Price would be whipped?
46720Then you are the brother of Alibamo?
46720Then you are_ not_ what I suppose?
46720Then you believe I lie, do you?
46720Then you have resolved to undertake this task?
46720Those in the centre-- near the grove?
46720To what purpose, sir?
46720To what tribe do you belong?
46720Under whose charge am I to be sent?
46720Want? 46720 Was my father dead?"
46720We can spare thirty men to charge their cavalry,said Zagonyi;"lieutenant, will you lead them?"
46720Well, captain, the army is moving, is it not?
46720What are they?
46720What army?
46720What assurance have I that you will be faithful?
46720What battalion is that?
46720What became of the lady, George?
46720What benefit or gratification will that afford you, Branch?
46720What course did you pursue?
46720What did you do?
46720What do the papers contain?
46720What do you intend doing?
46720What do you mean by that?
46720What do you mean, captain?
46720What do you mean?
46720What do you mean?
46720What do you mean?
46720What do you mean?
46720What do you say, Miss Hayward?
46720What expression, captain?
46720What have you been doing, William?
46720What have you been doing?
46720What is her name?
46720What is his name?
46720What is that favor?
46720What is to be done?
46720What is your name?
46720What more do you see?
46720What news do you bring from Mac?
46720What shall we do, Johnson?
46720What shall we do?
46720What shall you do, orderly, if Price does make up his mind to fight?
46720What the devil are_ you_ blubbering about?
46720What voice, William?
46720What was the fellow frightened about?
46720What were you dreaming, captain?
46720What would I do? 46720 What would you do?"
46720When my country is in danger, do I not share it? 46720 When shall I start?"
46720Where are those hand- cuffs?
46720Where are we to procure them?
46720Where are we, brother? 46720 Where can we remove Hayward, that he will be secure until he entirely recovers?"
46720Where did you meet him?
46720Where is Captain Young?
46720Where she is?
46720Which way?
46720Whither bound, boys?
46720Who are coming, dear sister?
46720Who is your brother?
46720Who talks of being ill, at such a time as this? 46720 Who the devil said anything about forsaking him?
46720Who will volunteer to remain with him?
46720Why am I not at once executed?
46720Why buried? 46720 Why did you do that?"
46720Why do n''t you strike this senseless man, and thus revenge that honest, truthful answer?
46720Why do you delay?
46720Why do you wish to meet him more than any other officer?
46720Why have you so much sympathy for your enemy?
46720Why is that man in my tent?
46720Why is this?
46720Why not?
46720Why so, Alibamo?
46720Why, can you not guess?
46720Why, did she not leave with you?
46720Why, how is this? 46720 Why, what does Price know of you?"
46720Why?
46720Will I be permitted to communicate with my friends or send them word where I have been taken?
46720Will a duel be the result?
46720Will you excuse me a moment?
46720Will you give your parole of honor never to take up arms against us again, if I release you?
46720Will you go?
46720Will you have it in my cap? 46720 Will you think_ only_ of revenge?"
46720Will you?
46720William, I told you to remain with the horses, did I not?
46720William, tell me which you prefer: to serve in the ranks, or to act as my body- guard?
46720Would it be a great gratification to you?
46720Would you know him again if you should meet him?
46720Would you? 46720 Yes, Harry, we will try,"replied Elsler;"but will you not give us the remaining portion of your adventure?"
46720Yes, all safe,replied Hayward"But how have you passed the day, Adjutant Hinton?"
46720Yes-- don''t you see the rebel ensign waving over it?
46720Yes-- where is Harry?
46720You are a stranger here?
46720You are alive; but where are our friends?
46720You come from below?
46720You do n''t intend to leave the captain?
46720You have seen Alibamo?
46720You observe a change here, I suppose?
46720You swear it?
46720You will serve me, nevertheless?
46720You will tell me all you know of the federal army, and of your own plans?
46720You wo n''t betray me?
46720You would not sacrifice your duty for love?
46720A frown covered his face as he asked:"What do you want, Johnson?"
46720After a moment''s pause, Johnson asked:"Do you find anything else?"
46720Alibamo spoke:"Are you not required in camp, dear Harry?"
46720Am I not revenged?''
46720Am I to walk?"
46720And did he not recognize you to- day?"
46720And do you recollect the words I used about Price, to the man who gave me the water?"
46720And do you usually take women with you when you act as spies?"
46720And have you slept, Nettleton?"
46720And sez I to him, you dog or rascal, what are you skeered about?
46720And what is this good advice?"
46720And why?
46720And you love me, do you not, Alibamo?"
46720Are there any here who have seen this fellow before?"
46720Are these men your friends?"
46720Are they alive?"
46720Are you here, brother?
46720Are you mounted, boys?"
46720As she ceased singing, she turned to Hayward and said:"Do you not admire the song?"
46720As the day advanced, Hayward said:"Mamie, what will you do in case of the worst?"
46720As the party rode up, one of them said:"Why, Branch, what are you doing with these beauties?
46720As they ascended to the summit, Alibamo asked:"Whither are you going, Branch?"
46720At length Price asked:"What is your name?"
46720At length he paused and exclaimed:"What means all this?
46720At length she said:"Branch, will you not pass me some water from that stream?"
46720Be seated, will you drink?"
46720Branch, do n''t you fear that these two half- fainting women will rescue me?"
46720But is ye gwan to lebe dis chile all stark, staring, breving alone?"
46720But perhaps you prefer to examine these?"
46720But tell me_ why_ this change?
46720But this is not your only motive?"
46720But, what have you been dreaming?"
46720By the by, captain, is my friend Branch with you now?"
46720Can I be else, and serve_ you_?"
46720Can you walk so far, Fall- leaf?"
46720Cos why?
46720Dar, do n''t you hear dat horse whinner?"
46720Do n''t you see that the lady''s apron which you are waving is a federal flag?
46720Do you not love those sounds?"
46720Do you not remember there was a cave here?
46720Do you prefer a horse or a carriage?"
46720God, why was I saved to life-- but not to live?
46720Had we not better send him back?"
46720Has Branch got himself into trouble?"
46720Has Hayward spoken recently?"
46720Have you a drawing of his defences?"
46720Have you any to spare?"
46720Have you anything to request?
46720Have you searched him for papers?"
46720Hayward saluted, and asked:"Will you take me to the general''s tent?"
46720He met the brother of Alibamo, and having been informed by Nettleton who he was, Hayward inquired:"Where are our sisters?"
46720How came you here, Mamie?"
46720How can I undeceive him?"
46720How is it, Harry, do you think_ you_ will love this-- this-- what is her name?"
46720In a moment his voice was heard exclaiming:"Here, ye darn lazy skunks, you; what for did you let this fire go out?
46720In a short time after the halt, Branch returned and riding up to the ambulance, he asked of the attendant:"How is the captain?"
46720In what way?"
46720Is Captain Branch foiled so easily?"
46720Is it not majestical?
46720Is it true, Captain Branch?"
46720Is she far from here?"
46720Is she in camp now?"
46720Is she not in my power?
46720It is a glorious spectacle, is it not?"
46720It is not from associations?"
46720Miss Hayward glanced at her brother, and then turning to Branch, she replied:"And become companion with such as you?"
46720Now for the first time he turned to Alibamo, and said:"What think you now, my fair one?
46720Now, Alibamo, what say you?
46720Shall I go now?"
46720Shall I make it hot?"
46720Shall I tell Mac to meet you immediately on your arrival?"
46720Shall we, like dogs, submit?
46720She taunts him, and what woman of spirit would not?
46720Sigel-- do you remember Wilson''s Creek?"
46720Some words of tenderness passed between the lovers, when Alibamo cried:"What is that?"
46720Sturgis-- you have met him once-- do you wish to meet him again?
46720The Body- guard!_""What shouts are those?"
46720The sight revived me, and springing up, I cried:''Who are those lovely beings who come forth with my country''s jewel glittering on their brow?''
46720Think you that I can be frightened from my purpose?
46720Turning to the right, he proceeded onward, but observing he was not followed, he asked:"Why do you halt?"
46720We may both be killed?"
46720What do you mean by that word?
46720What do you mean?"
46720What has happened?"
46720What is that?"
46720What is that?"
46720What means this, brother?"
46720What say you?"
46720What shall we do in that case?"
46720What was that hope, Johnson?
46720What was the meaning of this silence-- this apparent thoughtfulness?
46720Where have you been detained so long?"
46720Where is it?"
46720Where is it?"
46720Who comes there?"
46720Who will go with me?"
46720Whom?"
46720Why do n''t you finish the sentence?"
46720Why do you ask, can_ we_?"
46720Why is this, Johnson?"
46720Why not express your sentiments before me?
46720Why not give us a chance for ourselves?
46720Why should they bury Fall- leaf?"
46720Why so?"
46720Why then if Harry really does love, it is not a rebel beauty?"
46720Why?
46720Will it?
46720Will you fight with us?"
46720Will you go with me?"
46720Will you love Alibamo, Harry?"
46720Will you tell him this?"
46720Would you kill_ your_ brother?
46720You do n''t want to have me superceded, do you?"
46720You have not heard him sing''Noble Republic''recently, have you?
46720You heard what the colonel said?"
46720You know me?"
46720You saw the Fair- Ground as we passed?
46720You wo n''t speak?
46720_ The Prisoners-- Brutality-- The Attendant-- The Letter-- Discovery._ What bloody man is that?
46720is my cup of bitterness not yet full?
46720is there no way in which you can escape this terrible fate?"
46720my father-- my dear sister, why are you not upon the threshold to welcome my return?
46720no; but why do you object to being in the ranks?"
46720want the horses?"
46720well, if we are only_ both_ killed, I can serve you still?"
46720what is that?
46720why are you here?
46720you weep for him, do you?
39097''How did you get''em quiet, Jack?'' 39097 ''Tis not like Philadelphia, mistress?"
39097''Wimmin?'' 39097 ''Wot''ll we do, sir?''
39097A brig or a sloop- of- war?
39097A cutter, then?
39097A rock? 39097 A sailor, then?"
39097Am I so different?
39097And Allen?
39097And are you sure you do not love Dick?
39097And are you well, sir? 39097 And could you take a gun up?"
39097And did n''t Nellie do it well?
39097And he was killed by the enemy?
39097And how was that, sir?
39097And is there no hope?
39097And then,--who did you say?
39097And this is all you can tell me?
39097And who is she?
39097And who may this distinguished man be?
39097And who may you be, may I ask?
39097And will you not walk down to the landing with me?
39097And you are not giving him up for my sake?
39097And you do n''t love her?
39097And you have sung to her, with her?
39097And you knew the engagement was broken this morning?
39097And you will let me have my happiness to myself, then? 39097 And you will trust me?"
39097And your mother?
39097Are they all very beautiful and charming?
39097Are you able to support a wife, lad?
39097Are you as rich as that?
39097Are you better now?
39097Are you fond of her?
39097Are you going to give her that letter or not?
39097Are you ready, gentlemen?
39097Are you related to Commodore Dick Revere of the old navy?
39097Are you sure she does n''t love you?
39097As to the engagement?
39097As what?
39097At the prospect of breakfast?
39097Beat the French? 39097 Because I was saved by----""Oh, that''s it, is it?
39097Better, miss?
39097Brawling in my house among my guests? 39097 But I must say it,"he persevered;"I am-- I was engaged to marry----""Josephine?"
39097But Robert?
39097But how''ll you live till I get there?
39097But you believe me, do n''t you, that I love you, only you?
39097But you have been with Farragut; you were at Mobile Bay in the_ Hartford_; you----"You did not know it then, surely?
39097But you love me still? 39097 But you loved the other girl before?"
39097But you wo n''t do that merely because you have to, will you?
39097But, Dick, are you rich enough to buy a whole ship yourself?
39097But, dearest, I shall see you to- night?
39097Ca n''t you wait?
39097Captain Barry, ca n''t you do something?
39097Captain Barry,exclaimed a fresh, clear young voice, which in perfection matched the hand,"have you looked to the comfort of our guest?
39097Care? 39097 Charles Stewart of the_ Constitution_?
39097Child,he said at last, fondly looking down at her,"is this true?"
39097Did n''t you get my letter, Josephine?
39097Did she come alone?
39097Did you ever save any one''s life?
39097Did you make use of such intemperate language, Captain Mason?
39097Did you say,said the admiral, as they prepared to leave him,"that you had been at Mobile Bay?"
39097Did you, then, do me the honor to seek me? 39097 Do n''t you know me?
39097Do n''t you see that I wish to be alone for a little? 39097 Do you always talk in that way?"
39097Do you believe him, my dear?
39097Do you mean Colonel Kirke?
39097Do you think his mother----?
39097Do you think you are quite strong enough to do it?
39097Do you want me?
39097Does it disappoint you?
39097Does she love you, I wonder?
39097First your mother?
39097Gentlemen,said the colonel, retiring with the seconds,"can not this unhappy affair be arranged?"
39097Good pirates? 39097 Good- morning, Mistress Elizabeth,"he at length managed to stammer out;"how passed you the night?"
39097Has every recess been searched?
39097Have I been bold and forward?
39097Have I missed him?
39097Have n''t you heard?
39097Have no fear for me, Marian dear,he went on, softly,"I am----""What have you done?"
39097Have you made many cruises?
39097Have you no relatives, no friends?
39097Hev I brung you up, Master Futtocks, to doubt me?
39097Hev you seen all the cow critters on the yearth, youngster?
39097Hey? 39097 Him they call''Old Ironsides''?"
39097How can I help it? 39097 How comes it in your room, may I ask, Miss Emily?"
39097How could you do it?
39097How dared he speak so?
39097How did it happen, Miss Emily?
39097How did you happen to come here?
39097I am sorry that----"Perhaps you would like to break our engagement, Miss Sanford?
39097I heard shots,she cried;"have they-- where is he?"
39097I suppose you have seen a great many beautiful and high- bred ladies in Boston and elsewhere?
39097I suppose,she said at last, desperately,"there are none of them like me?"
39097I take it that you have decided to attack?
39097I was only thinking how beautifully you row, and wondering----"Yes, wondering?
39097I wo n''t ask you to answer me now; but will you not give me a trial?
39097I wonder how she will feel when she gets the letter?
39097I wonder what Josephine would say if she could see me now? 39097 I wonder,"she said, presently, in tones of great anxiety,"what the matter can be?
39097I? 39097 In your room?"
39097Is Colonel Kirke dead?
39097Is he yet alive? 39097 Is it so?"
39097Is it so?
39097Is that really true?
39097Is there something in it you do n''t want me to know?
39097It''s my house, is n''t it? 39097 It''s not Miss Emily?"
39097Jack,said little Futtocks, amid the laughter with which this amazing story was greeted,"do you mean to tell me that this is a true yarn?"
39097Knew you my step, Mistress Elizabeth?
39097Learning what, pray?
39097Looks bad, does n''t it?
39097Love you? 39097 Madam,"cried Broadhead, indignantly,"do you realize what you say?"
39097May I answer your question? 39097 May I know your name, sir?"
39097More than anything under the sun,said Emily, burying her face on Josephine''s shoulder;"do n''t you love him yourself?"
39097My dear,she said,"how can I thank you for saving my boy''s life?
39097My-- my husband?
39097Nay, sir,she answered, coolly;"none other had been so foolish; but the Indians?"
39097Nelson gone? 39097 No, not only for me, but for the women and children; you thought of them?"
39097No, of course not; but why particularly at this time?
39097Not alone, for I----"That girl?
39097Not even Elizabeth Zane?
39097Not give it to her?
39097Not save your life? 39097 Nothing more gone?"
39097Of honesty? 39097 Oh, Harry, why are you not here?"
39097Oh, Richard, how could you?
39097Oh, grandfather, what''s that?
39097Oh, how was it?
39097Oh, then, you didn''t----"Did n''t what?
39097Oh, what is it?
39097Oh, what must you think of me?
39097Oh,he said to her;"how do you do, Josephine?
39097Old enough for me, Dot? 39097 Richard, how can you jest about so serious a subject?"
39097Richard,said Emily, springing to her feet,"you do n''t mean it?"
39097Richard,said his whilom fiancée, when they were alone,"are you in love with that girl?"
39097Say, you cowboy,with an ugly look on his face,"have you been making a woman cry?"
39097Seriously, Richard?
39097Shall I go with you?
39097She sings, too, I suppose?
39097So your marriage with little Dot Venour depends on your commanding something with a pennant fluttering above, does it? 39097 Suppose she will not break it?"
39097That song we sang together last night?
39097That will not do at all,he interrupted, promptly and decisively;"you must call me something else-- now that you-- oh, do you?"
39097That''ll be the one you spoke of, I take it?
39097The ship?
39097The ship?
39097Then, you do n''t care so very much, after all?
39097Those queer things in your room,--the harpoon, the shark''s tooth, the model of the ship?
39097True that he loves me, grandfather? 39097 Was it a fellow- officer?"
39097Was she the girl you saved?
39097We have not seen any as yet in the valley, but----"And was it you, sir, who tramped all night on the block- house over our heads?
39097We?
39097Well, what did you command? 39097 Were you ever wounded, admiral?"
39097What are you afraid of, Sam?
39097What are you goin''to do with the ship?
39097What are you goin''to report, sir?
39097What difference? 39097 What do you mean by jumping on my lap in this unceremonious manner?
39097What do you mean? 39097 What do you mean?"
39097What do you think of it, Maxwell?
39097What girl?
39097What is it, admiral? 39097 What is it?"
39097What is she like?
39097What is that? 39097 What is that?"
39097What next, sir?
39097What of it?
39097What other girl?
39097What ship were you on?
39097What sort of a person is she?
39097What then?
39097What was delightful?
39097What was it you were saying?
39097What was your command, my lad?
39097What''s a ketch, Jack?
39097What''s all this row?
39097What''s the matter with you, Captain Barry?
39097What''s the matter, Captain Barry?
39097What''s the matter? 39097 What''s this?
39097What''s this?
39097What''s this?
39097What? 39097 What?"
39097What?
39097What?
39097When? 39097 Where are you going and why?"
39097Where is Robert Gardner? 39097 Where is he?
39097Where is he?
39097Where is it, child?
39097Where is she now?
39097Where is the letter?
39097Where''s your mother, baby?
39097Who commands this garrison? 39097 Who is this coming up the path?"
39097Who is with her?
39097Who killed?
39097Who will prevent it?
39097Why are the women using the rifles?
39097Why not?
39097Will you answer for the flag- ship, too, sir?
39097Will you leave me now?
39097Will you let me alone if I do?
39097Wo n''t I do?
39097Wo n''t you kiss me good- by? 39097 Wo n''t you shake hands with me?"
39097Wo n''t you speak to me? 39097 Wot''s the matter with leetle Sammy Bowline?"
39097Yes, Mrs.--Mrs.--er-- Allen, is it not?
39097Yes, and what did he say?
39097Yes, but are you sure you do not love her?
39097Yes, of course, but-- I----"Will you go, please? 39097 Yes?
39097You are not angry, are you?
39097You have always been under orders, you say?
39097You have something more than a lieutenant''s pay, then?
39097You knew he was engaged to me, then?
39097Your traps, eh? 39097 Zane,"said the colonel, laughing at the oblivious pair,"did you ever know a peril so deadly that it could prevent two young people from making love?"
39097''Ai n''t ye got no tongue?''
39097''Do n''t you hear me?
39097''Wot are they a- doin''there?
39097''Wot''ll we do with them feemale slaves?
39097*****"How did it go off, Bill?"
39097--_The Outlook._"The book revels in love, war, adventure, so what more can be asked?"
39097ADDISON"Who cries that the days of daring are those that are faded far, That never a light burns planet bright to be hailed as the hero''s star?
39097Admiral, you will pardon me if I ask Miss Emily to take Miss Josephine into the house for a few moments?
39097Ah, Richard, where was Barry then?
39097Alone in this empty house?"
39097And Captain Barry also?
39097And I suppose you will be with them all day?"
39097And was he to stand idle, indifferent, impotent, while these things were going on?
39097And what had he said?
39097Are there any Indians about?"
39097Are you none the worse for----?"
39097Are you sure you do n''t?"
39097Are you trifling with me?
39097Are you----?"
39097But I really do not see, since you have thrown me over, that you have any right to object to my falling in love with anybody else, have you?"
39097But how?"
39097But then what could you expect from a man who had been an officer on the_ Chesapeake_?"
39097But where is Barry?
39097But whose?
39097But you wo n''t go, will you?"
39097Can it be possible that she is here?"
39097Could Barry check it?
39097Could he ask Josephine to release him?
39097Did he get my letter?"
39097Did it have two masts?"
39097Did you ever see a sailor- man who was n''t?"
39097Did you make any foolish promises to this young man, Dorothy?"
39097Do you like my other name, too?"
39097Do you love him, daughter?"
39097Friends?
39097Geraldine, wo n''t you speak to me?"
39097Good- morning, Barry,"he continued, as the sailor approached him;"is it well with the ship?"
39097Had he given a false alarm?
39097Had the waves of the tempest indeed brought the long- expected, long- dreamed- of lover to her feet?
39097Have not the peasants of Sicily been singing the music of"Home, Sweet Home,"for a thousand years?
39097Have you the flask there, daughter?
39097He could see that she was delighted with the admiral, as, indeed, who could fail to be?
39097He jested, surely; yet could the words be true?
39097He probably adores her-- who could help it?
39097He said nothing before he died?"
39097He sez,--"''W''y do n''t you answer me?''
39097He stood up in the darkness and stretched out his arms to heaven,--what voiceless, wordless prayer in his lonely old heart?
39097Her?
39097How am I to acquit myself of all I owe you?"
39097How could she do it?
39097How did it exist within my body?
39097How is the ship, Barry?"
39097How is the ship?"
39097How long had she been riding?
39097How shall we get there, Dick?"
39097How?
39097I always thought we would have a little cottage somewhere----""We?"
39097I am still Mrs. Kirke, am I not?"
39097I do n''t know whether I-- love you, but-- what you have said has not been displeasing to me-- on the contrary----""And you will try, you will wait?
39097I ground my spiritual teeth in rage and clinched my spiritual hand and swore-- but what was the use of swearing?
39097I suppose that is the quickest way to the village?"
39097I think I have had happiness enough to last a lifetime as it is; and you love me, do n''t you?
39097I thought it would be rather pleasant----""Is that all?"
39097I thought, contemptuously; what could he do?
39097I was always an imaginative fellow and a great tryer of all sorts of strange experiments; why should I not try this one?
39097I was getting angry; but, would you believe it?
39097I wonder whether anything''s left of her?
39097I wonder whether the apparel becomes the man?
39097I wonder why?
39097I-- Miss Emily-- the ship----""What of the ship?"
39097I----""Oh, sir; then you will sacrifice me, will you, to your principle?
39097If he lived, what things might be?
39097In what way might he compass the destruction of this man?
39097Instead of handing them to the young man, he had retained them; moved by what idea that they might be of value to him some day, who could say?
39097Is all our difference of rank but a matter of uniform?
39097Is he gone?
39097Is it not so, Richard?"
39097Is it not so?"
39097Is she beautiful?"
39097Is she dead?"
39097Is there any way in which I can show it?"
39097It could not be; yet, if the Indians were coming, why did they not present themselves?
39097It is not that you do not?"
39097It was stated that any violent emotion might be of great assistance at the final moment of-- shall I call it dissolution?
39097Josephine, why did n''t you wait a little longer?
39097Kirke?"
39097Lonely?
39097Love blinds?
39097Maurice?"
39097May I have Dorothy now, sir?"
39097May I have your boat, Miss Emily?
39097May I help you up the hill?"
39097May I----?"
39097Meanwhile, what of the ship in all these changing years?
39097Mother, did they tell you that my life was saved by a-- er-- a young woman?"
39097Must I see her killed before my eyes?
39097My God, was n''t it terrible?
39097Not a very romantic story, is it?
39097Now, I----""How do you know so much about it?"
39097Now, what''s this, I wonder?
39097Oh, dear; what shall I do?
39097Oh, let me try?"
39097Oh, why could they not let a disembodied spirit alone in its peaceful misery?
39097Oh, why had n''t he thought of it before and prevented his wife from making the run?
39097She was sufficiently a woman also to realize her own beauty-- indeed, did ever daughter of Eve possess a charm of which she lacked knowledge?
39097Should he not strike while there was time?
39097Should he send a shot into that smiling face?--his friend''s face?
39097Should she let him pass?
39097Should the horse do it?
39097Still, how could he do it?
39097Suppose they should bury me, would I suffer the pangs of suffocation forever, or at least until my body resolved itself into its primordial elements?
39097Sympathize with whom?
39097Tell me, now, honestly, do you love him very much?"
39097That lover who was coming?
39097The admiral sleeps, but what of that?
39097The man who took the_ Cyane_ and the_ Levant_?"
39097The sweetest songs, are they not the oldest?
39097They are odd things for a girl''s room, are they not?
39097Think we can take it?"
39097W''ere are you bound?
39097W''ere are you from?
39097W''ere was I?"
39097Wall, where was I, mates?"
39097Was all the world bewitched?
39097Was death the result of a disassociation of the two?
39097Was ever innocent man placed in so miserable a position?"
39097Was ever man in such a position?"
39097Was ever man in such a predicament?
39097Was it for Emily?
39097Was it real?
39097Was n''t she splendid?
39097Was no man capable of ever separating the one from the other?
39097Was she not to be happy, after all?
39097Was she to be robbed of her happiness, too, while he was there?
39097Was she vexed when she received your letter?"
39097Was she, could she, be worthy of him?
39097Was that sweet flower of innocence to be rifled of the chief treasure of her womanhood and he do nothing?
39097Was the old ship to be sold and broken up?
39097Was the ship braving the storm?
39097Was there not a serpent in the Garden of Eden?
39097We shall be going soon, you and I and the ship, and who will take care of Emily then?
39097Well, suppose he did win the race?
39097Well, what are you going to do about it?"
39097Were those her initials?
39097What answer would her grandfather make?
39097What are you doing?
39097What art can wash her guilt away?"
39097What business or pleasure had brought him to the village?
39097What could be the matter?
39097What could have been the matter?
39097What could he do or say further?
39097What could he do?
39097What could he do?
39097What could it be?
39097What could it mean?
39097What could their movements mean?
39097What did I do?
39097What did they tell me his name was?
39097What do you mean by that?"
39097What do you mean?
39097What fool''s impulse had made him obey her sharp command?
39097What had he come there for?
39097What had he done it for?
39097What had she done to merit this?
39097What has she done for him compared to me?
39097What kept it there?
39097What might come?
39097What more does she want?"
39097What of the woman riding on with a broken heart, yet with a grim determination somehow to achieve fortune for her sick husband and her children?
39097What right had she to come between us?
39097What shall we do?"
39097What should any man come there for if not for her?
39097What should he do?
39097What think ye of the prospect, Barry?"
39097What was happening?
39097What was it he said when he looked out of the window before he bade me good- night?
39097What was it you wanted to say to me?"
39097What was it?
39097What was that young man''s name?
39097What was the matter?
39097What will your mother think of me?
39097What woman is there without that much comprehension?
39097What would become of Geraldine?
39097What would he say or do?
39097What would her life be in that great world of which she dreamed beyond that sparkling wave- lit circle of the horizon?
39097What would his mother think of such a demand, and how would his conduct in the affair be regarded by his friends?
39097What would she do when the admiral was gone?
39097What''d I do with it?
39097What''s the matter with you, man?
39097What''s up?"
39097What, in God''s name, could he do?
39097What?"
39097What_ did_ it mean?
39097Where are the rest of the men?"
39097Where did you learn it?
39097Where is Geraldine?
39097Where is he to lie?"
39097Where was it, this pervading vital force within me?
39097Where would you be, Mr. Dick Revere, if it had not been for him and the girl?
39097Where''s Barry?"
39097Who is he?"
39097Who is she?
39097Who would care for her then?
39097Who would care for her then?
39097Who would take care of her then?
39097Why did n''t I know you before?"
39097Why do n''t you play more boldly, sir?"
39097Why had he not noticed it?
39097Why had the man come there?
39097Why, how is it possible for a man?"
39097Will you come into the house?"
39097Will you have another swallow of whiskey?"
39097Will you kiss me now, Emily?"
39097With George or with her?
39097Wo n''t you let me try?
39097Wo n''t you please look at me?
39097Wot hev ye got on board?
39097Would I ever see her again or, rather, would she ever see me?
39097Would he dismount and face them?
39097Would he try to ride over them?
39097Would it be enough?
39097Would she at last forget me and marry some one else, and force me to stand powerless looking on?
39097Would she come?
39097Would you mind goin''in there an''takin''a look?"
39097Would you send away my promised wife?
39097Yet what else was there to do?
39097Yet what was to be done?
39097Yet, how to be free?
39097You and your golden- haired mistress presented me with my life last night, and now you''paint the lily''--gad, that''s a good simile, is n''t it?"
39097You are not suffering, are you?
39097You do love me, do n''t you?"
39097You do, do n''t you, Dorothy?"
39097You have no other tie?"
39097You have sustained no serious consequences?"
39097You said you had two children, did you not?"
39097You were at Mobile, were you?"
39097You will not think me foolish?"
39097You wo n''t let this make any difference, will you?"
39097[ Illustration:"Say, you cowboy, have you been making a woman cry?"]
39097asked the captain, facetiously,"a dinghy or a jolly- boat?"
39097can they do it?"
39097cried Emily, too anxious to heed approval, even from such a source;"is he dead, do you think?"
39097exclaimed the captain;"you do n''t mean to say you have been in charge of a frigate or a ship- of- the- line, a boy like you?"
39097exclaimed the old man;"with Dave Farragut?"
39097he sez,''wot hev we run inter?''
39097himself deceived, taken them from their needed labors only to array them against some imaginary peril?
39097roared the old captain,"are you going on with these proceedings before my very eyes, at my age?
39097said the doctor, his glance at last falling to the man extended on the floor;"this is the patient, is it?
39097said the old man;"who is she?"
39097screamed Emily in the old man''s ear;"ca n''t something be done?"
39097she cried;"your wound?
39097the cap''n cried,''wot ship is that?''
39097was it upon them?
39097what''s that fellow crying about?"
39097you leave the stockade?"
20432A Federal officer? 20432 A man?
20432A prisoner, did you say?
20432About Marion?
20432Afraid? 20432 Ah, is that really so?
20432Ai nt it, though? 20432 All drowned, you say?"
20432Alone?
20432Am I to be held up here all day by a mere boy?
20432Am I?
20432An''Jack''s mudder, sah?
20432And Columbus?
20432And Marion wants you to?
20432And after that?
20432And after that?
20432And did yo''know Massah Jack''s fadder, sah?
20432And have you a ladder handy?
20432And he comes here quite often, you say?
20432And how is your mother these days, Jack?
20432And how much will that be?
20432And if they do?
20432And they did not find his body?
20432And was anybody hurt?
20432And was he a gen''man, sah? 20432 And were you kept at the asylum?"
20432And were you living here at the time?
20432And what about those things?
20432And what did she say?
20432And what do you know of him? 20432 And what do you wish?"
20432And what is that, sir?
20432And what must I do to help settle it?
20432And where am de guerrilla?
20432And where did he go?
20432And who are you, if I may ask?
20432And who was that physician, Colonel Stanton? 20432 And why not?"
20432And you are certain that Jack was held a prisoner?
20432And you do not wish to speak about it?
20432And you think I am old enough now?
20432And you were picked up?
20432And you will let me return to the Ruthven plantation, if I wish?
20432And you, Jack?
20432And-- and mother is n''t my-- my real mother?
20432Another danger? 20432 Another?"
20432Any mice down there, or spiders?
20432Any-- any blood, for example?
20432Anybody around?
20432Are we to consider ourselves as prisoners of war?
20432Are we to drill to- day?
20432Are you afraid of ghosts?
20432Are you engaged to him?
20432Are you going to bed, Jack?
20432Are you going to take me to Europe?
20432Are you having good luck?
20432Are you married, Cousin Harry?
20432Are you not in arms against my country?
20432Are you so anxious to get hold of my aunt''s plantation?
20432Are you sure?
20432Are you then so anxious to leave me, Jack?
20432Are you wealthy?
20432Aunt Alice, can you spare me a few minutes?
20432Ben, are you badly hurt?
20432Ben, have you seen Jack?
20432Blood is thicker than water; is n''t it?
20432But I can hope?
20432But I want to know what he did say?
20432But had he a right to take the soldier''s money?
20432But how did it all come about?
20432But how did you suspect this at first?
20432But if I have him arrested you will furnish those witnesses to the fact that he is a spy?
20432But is he?
20432But my mother, what of her?
20432But supposing it were true, Darcy-- that I was a-- a-- nobody, as he says?
20432But tell me the name of that lady-- and was the child a boy?
20432But the inside of the ship itself was not torn out?
20432But the-- the Yankees?
20432But what did he say?
20432But what of the boy''s father?
20432But where did they find me?
20432But who is right?
20432But why did n''t he come to claim Jack?
20432But why did you not come here before?
20432But why does he want the boy?
20432But why this secrecy, if everything is aboveboard?
20432But, Jack, you may be shot down?
20432But, if that is true, why does n''t he ignore you and keep the money for himself?
20432By the way, what is your name?
20432Ca n''t you get your aunt or your cousin to show them to you? 20432 Can it be possible that he intends to leave the States?"
20432Can it be possible that he is speaking of our boy Jack?
20432Can it be possible that he knows something of the past, and is going out to the wreck for a purpose?
20432Can it be that he was once in a shipwreck?
20432Can the Yankees be pressing our army back again?
20432Can we do anything for him?
20432Can you guess what I wish to say?
20432Can you supply me with a glass of good drinking water? 20432 Can you take me out in a boat after them?"
20432Colonel Stanton,she said, seating herself at his side,"were you ever in the neighborhood before-- I mean some ten or eleven years ago?"
20432Come to help me fish?
20432Come, are you ready?
20432Coming?
20432Dat am Massah Jack, sah?
20432Dead, are ye? 20432 Dear cousin, can not you forgive me for going over to the enemy?"
20432Dem is private prop''ty; do n''t yo''know dat?
20432Did I understand that this is the plantation of Mrs. Alice Ruthven?
20432Did I understand you to say that you wished me to prove I was your father?
20432Did he bring anything away with him?
20432Did he let ye go?
20432Did he seem to have a finger on one hand doubled up and stiff?
20432Did he try to prove his words?
20432Did he? 20432 Did it hurt anybody?"
20432Did n''t they try to find out who I was?
20432Did n''t you always think Jack''s mother was named Laura?
20432Did she say when she would be back?
20432Did the Confederate battery just retreat past here?
20432Did the ship go down on this coast?
20432Did they stay there?
20432Did you ever notice how much Jack and the colonel resembled each other?
20432Did you find any gold, massah?
20432Did you go far?
20432Did you meet a Confederate surgeon on the road?
20432Did you send him away on an errand?
20432Do n''t you remember me, you old rascal?
20432Do n''t you see any of our soldiers?
20432Do n''t you think we had better go into the house now?
20432Do n''t you want me here?
20432Do they expect a fight at Tanner''s Mill?
20432Do yo''t''ink yo''can walk dat far, Massah Jack, in dis awful storm?
20432Do you blame me?
20432Do you expect him back soon?
20432Do you expect me to walk?
20432Do you know Colonel Stanton?
20432Do you know I was drawn to you from the first time I saw you?
20432Do you know if my sister is around?
20432Do you know what I am going to do? 20432 Do you know what I think?
20432Do you know who was saved from the wreck?
20432Do you mean that as an insult to me, you good- for- nothing nigger?
20432Do you mean to insult me by that?
20432Do you mean to say that a Southern girl ought not to care for the man who is fighting as his conscience dictates?
20432Do you mean to say they are coming this way, Jack?
20432Do you mean to say they will shoot him?
20432Do you mean to- day?
20432Do you not recognize my visitor? 20432 Do you suppose I would wish to divide that fortune with a stranger?"
20432Do you suppose I''m going to bother with your fish? 20432 Do you take it back or not?"
20432Do you think Marion would refuse me?
20432Do you think they will come this way?
20432Do you think you are treating me as a father should?
20432Do you think you can bear it?
20432Do you think you can keep them from coming?
20432Do you want me to get the things for you?
20432Do you, indeed?
20432Do you? 20432 Does Marion like him?"
20432Does mother know we are here?
20432Does she want you to stay?
20432Does yo''belong to de army?
20432Does your mother know that Dr. Powell is here?
20432Dr. Mackey, do n''t you know me?
20432Dr. Mackey, where were you located before the war broke out?
20432Dr. Mackey, why do you treat me in this fashion?
20432Eh? 20432 Evidently you do not believe him?"
20432Evidently you think he ought to go?
20432For how long?
20432Give me sum terbacker, will yer?
20432Golly, massah, yo''do n''t really mean dat?
20432Half the property?
20432Harry, you do n''t have cowards in your ranks, do you?
20432Has he ever spoken to you about yourself?
20432Has my aunt ever spoken to you on the subject, Ben?
20432Have you a large fortune coming to me?
20432Have you any more calico like that which I got a few weeks ago?
20432Have you heard anything to my discredit?
20432Have you indeed?
20432Have you joined the army at last?
20432Have you sounded her on the subject?
20432Have you spoken to Jack yet?
20432He did n''t hit you, did he?
20432He is a friend?
20432He is dead?
20432He said I did n''t belong to the Ruthven family?
20432He said that, did he?
20432Here?
20432Hi, what''s this?
20432How are you going to make substitutes?
20432How dare you talk to me in this fashion?
20432How did you escape from the cave?
20432How do you do, Marion?
20432How do you do, Marion?
20432How do you do?
20432How large a box?
20432How many miles have we made, Ben?
20432How many?
20432How-- how near are they?
20432Hullo, where are you bound?
20432Hullo, where have you been?
20432Hullo, you here?
20432I ai nt a guerrilla, am I?
20432I am glad of it,answered Mrs. Ruthven, and then continued quickly,"Have you seen anything of Jack?"
20432I declare, Jack, how did you ever get them drilled so nicely?
20432I do n''t see how I can get the things?
20432I do n''t suppose you care to go down with me?
20432I do n''t think so, unless----"Unless what?
20432I know, but----"But what? 20432 I mean about-- well, about your past?"
20432I ought not to, Harry, but-- but----"You will, nevertheless?
20432I presume all that was movable in the ship has been carried off?
20432I suppose he comes to see you?
20432I told the truth, did n''t I?
20432I wonder if he knows anything of the ship and her passengers? 20432 I wonder if it is the guerrillas?"
20432I wonder if the two ever met in this vicinity?
20432I wonder what Jack thought of the colonel?
20432If you see this Colonel Stanton do n''t tell him about me, or repeat anything I have said, will you?
20432If you were in the hospital service, did you ever meet a doctor named Mackey?
20432Is Marion helping the doctor?
20432Is St. John married yet?
20432Is he around the stable or the barns?
20432Is he better?
20432Is he down there now?
20432Is he in the ranks, aunt?
20432Is he paying his addresses to her?
20432Is he your friend?
20432Is he your friend?
20432Is it out?
20432Is it possible to board the wreck now?
20432Is my mother in?
20432Is n''t that enough?
20432Is that all?
20432Is that so?
20432Is that the nigger''s name?
20432Is that true, Jack?
20432Is that true, sonny?
20432Is this your boathouse?
20432Is yo''ready, massah?
20432It was jess like de crack ob doom, was n''t it?
20432Jack, I demand to know who has told you this?
20432Jack, can this be true, and must I give you up?
20432Jack, do n''t you think you are acting the part of a fool?
20432Jack, do you know the truth?
20432Jack, do you mean to say you would put your own father in prison?
20432Jack, what shall we do now?
20432Mamma, do you think it possible that the Yankees captured him?
20432Marion, are n''t we real sister and brother?
20432Marion, are you hurt?
20432Marion, do you honestly think that man is my father?
20432Marion, where is Jack?
20432Marry?
20432Massah Harry, yo''ai nt gwine an''joined de Yanks, hab yo''?
20432Massah Jack, do yo''dun t''ink dat doctor am your fadder?
20432May I ask the name of the vessel?
20432Me? 20432 Me?"
20432Mother, am I right or wrong?
20432Mother, is this true-- is this man my real father?
20432My dear Aunt Alice, do you think you have done wisely in encouraging this intimacy?
20432My father?
20432My past, Darcy? 20432 No more do I; but how can we help ourselves?"
20432No, but I am almost sure that I have found Jack''s father?
20432No?
20432Not more dan t''ree, Massah Jack?
20432Not the worst of it?
20432Now where is that door- knob?
20432Now where is the race to be?
20432Now, supposing this thing turns out a wild- goose chase, after all? 20432 Of the Yankees?"
20432Oh, do you? 20432 Oh, so you object to my uniform?"
20432On account of the fire?
20432Once more, and for the last time, will you do as I wish you to?
20432Protect me from Jack?
20432Prove me an impostor?
20432S''posin''you had, sah?
20432Saved St. John''s life?
20432Saved? 20432 See anything of Marion to- day?"
20432Shall I go down the shore road and call up the boys?
20432She has been the best of mothers to me; so why should n''t I love her?
20432She never mentioned me in connection with this, did she?
20432Shot? 20432 So you dare to say I am a coward?"
20432So you have been harboring a Yankee in this place, eh? 20432 So you know the truth at last?"
20432So you thought to escape me, did you?
20432So you were-- you knew of it at that time, sir?
20432Speaking of cousins, does St. John come here often?
20432St. John, where are you going?
20432Studying his face?
20432Supposing I wo n''t go with you?
20432Supposing we should lose in this struggle-- what will become of your plantation then?
20432Tell me, has this Colonel Stanton met Jack?
20432That boy? 20432 The guerrilla could n''t go off alone, could he?"
20432The lad who helped move me yesterday?
20432The man who was shot while trying to steal the horses?
20432The mountains? 20432 The papers about the property?"
20432The truth?
20432Then Mrs. Ruthven does n''t know whose son he really is?
20432Then my father must have been on the boat with her?
20432Then she told nothing about me-- who I was?
20432Then why do n''t you join them, and evince your interest in some practical way?
20432Then why not remain an old maid and likewise a Ruthven? 20432 Then you are willing to admit that you care more for the fortune than you do for me?"
20432Then you believe I am an impostor?
20432Then you do n''t advise me to marry?
20432Then you intend to take me away from America?
20432Then you know what a rascal Dr. Mackey is? 20432 To join?
20432To see me? 20432 To see me?"
20432To where?
20432To you?
20432Was he a doctor there?
20432Was her name Julia?
20432Was that marked?
20432Well, if you are his son, why do n''t you get out of here?
20432Well, what do these fellows intend to do with me, anyway?
20432Well, what do you want me to do?
20432Well-- er-- at what age did you marry, aunt?
20432Well?
20432Were there any signs of violence about?
20432Were we intimate?
20432Wha-- what was your little son''s name?
20432Whar did ye come from-- thet cabin up the mountain?
20432What actual proofs have you that Jack is your son?
20432What am I to do?
20432What are you going to do with me?
20432What are you up to, Jack?
20432What brought you?
20432What can I do?
20432What can he mean by saying the ship is doomed?
20432What can he wish here?
20432What can this mean?
20432What can this mean?
20432What can you mean?
20432What chances has he?
20432What did I say?
20432What did he do?
20432What did he say?
20432What did you say, sah?
20432What do you intend to do with me?
20432What do you know about him?
20432What do you know about that money?
20432What do you know of him?
20432What do you mean by my taking the consequences?
20432What do you mean? 20432 What do you mean?"
20432What do you propose doing when that is gone?
20432What do you see, Jack?
20432What do you want of me?
20432What else did he say?
20432What have you found?
20432What have you in plain dress goods?
20432What if they do? 20432 What is it, Jack?
20432What is it, mamma; is Jack found?
20432What is it?
20432What is it?
20432What is the idea?
20432What is the matter?
20432What is wanted?
20432What is your real name?
20432What kind of a looking man was he?
20432What makes you ask?
20432What makes you look at Jack so?
20432What makes you think that?
20432What more proof do you require?
20432What must be true, madam?
20432What of my companions?
20432What of our clothing? 20432 What of your brother?"
20432What put it in your head to ask me this to- day?
20432What shall I do now? 20432 What shall I do?"
20432What shall you do next?
20432What shall you do?
20432What surprise, mother?
20432What terms?
20432What truth, mother?
20432What was the name of that lady? 20432 What were you going to say?"
20432What will Marion think if he wins?
20432What''s got into you this morning?
20432What''s the matter here? 20432 What''s the matter?"
20432What, Jack? 20432 What, St. John Ruthven?
20432What, after that experience in the storm?
20432What, does n''t Jack like him?
20432What, will you boys show fight?
20432What, you young rascal, you wo n''t tell me?
20432What? 20432 What?"
20432When did you see him last?
20432When do you expect to come back again?
20432When do you intend to take me away?
20432When will that be?
20432Where are the water buckets?
20432Where bound?
20432Where can he be keeping himself?
20432Where could he find it, missus? 20432 Where did the shot strike?"
20432Where did you meet him?
20432Where have you been-- at the town?
20432Where is she?
20432Where is that surgeon who was here?
20432Where is this fortune?
20432Where shall we take him, doctor?
20432Where to?
20432Where were they taking Jack?
20432Where?
20432Where?
20432Which is the way to Tanner''s Mill?
20432Who is it?
20432Who is that coming?
20432Who is the fellow?
20432Who is the man?
20432Who is there?
20432Who said he was my intended husband?
20432Who sent you?
20432Who-- who are you?
20432Whom have you here?
20432Why foolishly?
20432Why have n''t you claimed the fortune before?
20432Why not, Massah St. John? 20432 Why not?
20432Why not? 20432 Why not?"
20432Why not?
20432Why should I not? 20432 Why should n''t I try to sabe him?"
20432Why should n''t I-- after the way you have acted toward me? 20432 Why, St. John, do you wish to marry that child?"
20432Why, St. John, is that you?
20432Why, are you not a Southern woman, madam?
20432Why, what in the world is the matter, Jack? 20432 Why, what would you have done?"
20432Why?
20432Why?
20432Will it be safe?
20432Will they come back, Jack?
20432Will you be kind enough to take them in?
20432Will you come up to the house with me?
20432Will you let her know that you favor my suit?
20432Will you shake hands with a Yankee?
20432Will you take back what you said?
20432With Jack?
20432With those wounded Confederate soldiers?
20432Wo n''t they? 20432 Wot am it, Massah Jack?"
20432Wot fo''is yo''a prisoner yeah?
20432Wot, away from ole South Carolina?
20432Would you be willing to appear against him?
20432Would you kill me?
20432Yes, what is wrong about that?
20432Yo''know de way, sah?
20432You are a young Confederate, I presume?
20432You are sure of this? 20432 You are sure of this?"
20432You are sure of this?
20432You believe people should be true to their convictions?
20432You certainly did not expect ill treatment, did you?
20432You did not know them?
20432You do n''t object, do you?
20432You do not know? 20432 You mean Colonel Stanton?"
20432You mean you''ll drug me, or something like that?
20432You saw nobody else around?
20432You talk as if you already knew something of this?
20432You will not take his word?
20432You will not tell me more now?
20432You will return home?
20432You wo n''t take his word?
20432You-- er-- you wish me to get the things on the sly?
20432Your Jack? 20432 Your troops are encamped but a short distance from here, I believe?"
20432Your wife and son were with you?
20432A-- er-- nephew, perhaps?"
20432Ai nt ye, doc?"
20432Alone?"
20432Am I not Jack Ruthven, the son of the late Colonel Martin Ruthven?"
20432Am I not her equal in social position?"
20432Am dat yo''?"
20432And Jack does not like the man?"
20432And then he added;"What are you boys doing here?"
20432And then, after another pause, she continued:"Is the colonel a married man?"
20432And what would cause him to leave without telling us that he was going?"
20432And where is Jack now?"
20432And you say he still lives?"
20432Are you going with your father or not?"
20432Are you too tender- hearted to be a real soldier?"
20432At this St. John uttered a loud cry, almost of exultation:"There, what did I tell you?
20432Ben, how far are we from home, do you calculate?"
20432Blackwood?"
20432Blackwood?"
20432Boys, are you willing to stand by me and help me to keep my mother''s house from being ransacked?"
20432But I was going to ask, can I see my aunt?"
20432But have you any weapons?"
20432But how were you saved?"
20432But if I kin do anyt''ing fo''yo''----""What of this wreck?
20432But what do you know of this?"
20432But what does this mean?
20432But who was he?
20432But wo n''t you listen to what I have told you about my feeling for you?"
20432Ca n''t I come in?"
20432Ca n''t you hear the shooting?"
20432Captain, why do n''t you put out to sea?
20432Come, wo n''t you shake hands with me?"
20432Could there be any truth in what St. John Ruthven had said?
20432Did he bring anything away with him?"
20432Did he leave much of a family?"
20432Did my aunt ever speak of the particulars of what she intended to do?"
20432Did my wife have anything to say?"
20432Did n''t you find any trace at all of Jack?"
20432Did you speak to him?"
20432Did you tell Jack the truth?"
20432Do n''t you know that St. John is a coward at heart, even if he is a man?"
20432Do n''t you realize that you are in my power?"
20432Do n''t you remember it?
20432Do n''t you see the rebels?
20432Do you know him, Marion?"
20432Do you know that Dr. Mackey is a prisoner?"
20432Do you know what I think?
20432Do you mean Jack?"
20432Do you see yonder wreck, on Hemlock Bluff rocks?"
20432Do you think she will go back on me?"
20432Do you think you can stand up against me?"
20432Do you want to come to town and see us drill?"
20432Do you want to continue the fight?"
20432Does he mean to say that my mother is n''t my mother at all?"
20432Does she sympathize with the North?"
20432Have our troops been hopelessly defeated?"
20432Have you any reason to think that she loves you?"
20432Have you anything on your mind?
20432Have you nothing belonging to the lady?"
20432Have you spoken to her?"
20432He the son of the colonel-- the son of a Yankee officer?
20432How are those wounded men making out?"
20432How can you come here in that uniform?"
20432How should he begin to tell her of what was in his mind?
20432Hullo, who''s thet?"
20432I wonder if I can still locate it?"
20432I wonder if he is dead?"
20432I wonder what would happen if the South should be beaten in this struggle?"
20432If he deplores the evils of war, why does he not end it at once, and order his hordes of Yankee invaders to throw down their arms?"
20432If you see Doc Nivers tell him to call up the boys on the mountain road, will you?"
20432If you wo n''t shake hands with me as a Yankee, wo n''t you shake hands as a cousin?"
20432Is St. John at home?"
20432Is he badly wounded?"
20432Is it the same that one can see from the bluff?"
20432Is my aunt at home?"
20432Is n''t he here?"
20432Is that not so, Colonel Stanton?"
20432Is that true?"
20432Is that what made you turn Yankee?"
20432Jack felt that the surgeon was falsifying, but how could he prove it?
20432Jack, do you know that that young man is a regular bully, even if he is a dandy?"
20432John?"
20432John?"
20432John?"
20432John?"
20432John?"
20432John?"
20432John?"
20432Laura, where are you?
20432Mackey?"
20432Mackey?"
20432Mackey?"
20432Mackey?"
20432Mackey?"
20432Marion, did you notice how Colonel Stanton looks?"
20432May I ask the news?
20432Now what did she say?"
20432Now which was the foot of the bed?
20432Oh, what a storm-- can nothing be saved?"
20432Oh, will you help put it out?"
20432Powell?"
20432Shall I send for some refreshments?"
20432So this is the wreck?"
20432Tell me, are we real sister and brother or not?"
20432Tell me, is he-- is he missing-- shot?"
20432Tell me, quick?"
20432That fine, manly fellow?
20432The question is, will you go along peacefully with me?"
20432This crafty- looking, overbearing individual his parent?
20432This to my face?"
20432To me he seems----""Well?"
20432Want to go rowing with me?"
20432Was anybody hurt?"
20432Was he not the best"catch"in that neighborhood?
20432Was he really a nobody, with no claim upon the lady he called mother and the girl he looked upon as his sister?
20432Was none of it marked, or had she nothing in her pocket?"
20432Were you hit?"
20432What did he want at the wreck?"
20432What did she say?"
20432What do you know about a gentleman?"
20432What do you mean, mother?"
20432What does he expect?"
20432What does this mean?"
20432What excuse can I offer for hanging back?"
20432What for?"
20432What had I best do now?
20432What if Dr. Mackey should prove to be his parent, after all?
20432What if this man should take Jack from her?
20432What is it that you wish?"
20432What is wrong about my past?"
20432What is your name?"
20432What of him?"
20432What of those at Brackett''s plantation?"
20432What was this the wounded officer was saying?
20432What-- er-- do you mean?"
20432When will he be back?"
20432When?"
20432Where did I come from, and how did I get here?"
20432Where is he now?"
20432Where is the child?
20432Who is he, anyway?
20432Who?"
20432Whose place is this?"
20432Why are you so anxious to claim me as your son?"
20432Why did he not claim Jack long ago?"
20432Why did n''t you come here before?"
20432Why did you join the Yankees?"
20432Why do you want Jack, if he does n''t care for you?"
20432Why does n''t he enlist, like the rest of the young men in this neighborhood?"
20432Why must the men of the South and the North kill each other?"
20432Why should he be reared as a gentleman-- he, a poor waif of the sea?
20432Why should he not propose to her at once?
20432Why should n''t we marry and join the two plantations?
20432Why, you foolish nigger, what chance is there of finding gold on a wreck over ten years old?
20432Will you come into the house?"
20432Will you give me the particulars?"
20432Will you submit, or not?"
20432Wot are ye calkerlatin''ter do with me, sonny?"
20432You are not angry at me for keeping this a secret so long?
20432You are sure?"
20432You have noticed Jack, my brother?"
20432You know the place?"
20432You mean the presence of our troops here?
20432are you alone?"
20432are you safe?"
20432do you really think that?"
20432do you think they will come here?"
20432how can you say that of a Yankee?
20432is that you?
20432then you were one of Mr. Ruthven''s slaves?"
20432what are you going to do with that?"
20432what do you know about his father?"
20432what do you mean?"
20432what do you think?
20432what does this mean?"
20432who are you?"
20432who shot him?"
20432who told you that?"
20432who told you that?"
20432you wo n''t believe me?"
11719A lover?
11719Adolphe, will you take that despatch on to Bartleson?
11719After all, why should we put her again through all those sufferings that so nearly killed her after Shiloh?
11719Against what?
11719Ah, how can I? 11719 Ah, how is that possible?
11719Ah? 11719 Ah?
11719Ain''dey neveh gwine shoot?
11719All right? 11719 Am I a-- prisoner?"
11719And about this, Fred, you''ll be-- dumb?
11719And absence and distance and rumor try his unsupported constancy?
11719And all you have for it,was the first word,"is his pity, eh?"
11719And had it really,the three home- returning fair ones asked,"seemed so desolate and deadly perilous just for want of them?
11719And it would n''t be of--?
11719And leave you to--?
11719And lets time--?
11719And might not Jackson''s battlefield of 1815, in close view from these windows, become a new one?
11719And might not the Abolitionists send their ships and soldiers against New Orleans?
11719And so you-- you?
11719And the flag?
11719And the rest-- not worth--?
11719And this you must make me the promise; that you never, never will let anybody know you have discover''that, eh?
11719And what should I do with_ my_ mortification if I should let you, or her, be the loser? 11719 And yet--"persisted this self- sung"ladies''man"--"Yet what?"
11719And_ must_ war follow?
11719Anna, did you ever hear your mother sing--''There''s a bower of roses--''?"
11719Anna,put in the Doctor, but she lifted a hand:--"They''ve never offered it to you, Doctor?
11719Any use? 11719 Are the enemy''s ships--?"
11719Are you from down the river?
11719At present, you mean?
11719At the front?
11719Because what?
11719Brodnax''s brigade?
11719But have you heard noth--?
11719But how can we get-- by?
11719But how did it go; was it--?
11719But how?
11719But if you are that--?
11719But may I not at least say--?
11719But the guards?
11719But where he is, that Captain Kincaid?
11719But why so dead- alive? 11719 But you, Hilary, my life?"
11719But your own present poverty might hold you back even from the girl you wanted, might n''t it?
11719But, after the show, of course,said the laugher,"you and I''ll ride, eh?"
11719But,''Randa?
11719By Vicksburg? 11719 Ca n''t I give a castaway rose to whom I please?"
11719Can I help you, dear?
11719Captain Kincaid?
11719Did n''t he tell her too?
11719Did you say''the day,''she softly asked,"or''the bay''?"
11719Do n''t you know?
11719Do n''t you see-- the-- the difference?
11719Do you believe there are such women?
11719Doctor Sevier--?
11719Does n''t he sing it yet?
11719Does n''t the boat appear to you to tremble more than ever?
11719Dost perceive, Frederic,said the facetious Hilary,"yon modestly arrayed pair of palpable gents hieing hitherward yet pretending not to descry us?
11719Even if it must be forged?
11719For dear Anna''s sake_ and_ yours, shall I be that little bit your pilot, to say--?
11719Fred,said Hilary,"did n''t she tell you why?"
11719From Greenleaf?
11719From Mobile? 11719 Greenleaf,"said the old soldier,"why does Hilary forever walk as though he were bringing the best joke of the season?
11719Has Vicks--?... 11719 Has the_ Tennessee_ not fired yet?"
11719Have n''t you got the dagger? 11719 Have you told anybody,"he continued,"in what form you have it, or where?"
11719He had left good- by? 11719 Hil--"He turned upon his nephew, but finding him engaged with Anna, faced round to his chum:"For Heaven''s sake, Greenleaf, does he allow--?"
11719Hilary, you were n''t one of those singers last evening, were you?
11719Hilary?
11719How are you, Mandeville?
11719How did he look and act when he first came in? 11719 How did he talk?"
11719How do you know that''s what he''s doing?
11719How is it now? 11719 How much does it fall short?"
11719I do n''t know, unless it''s because-- well-- isn''t it-- because every lady has a piece of his heart and-- no one wants all of it?
11719I do n''t want it!--I mean-- I mean--"You mean, do you not? 11719 I on''y wish to Gawd,"he slowly said,"dat de next time you an''him meet--""Well-- next time we meet-- what then?"
11719I take back-- I take--was there going to be no chance to begin it?
11719I will win yet, if I have to lose--"Yes?
11719I? 11719 If he would only--""Telegraph?
11719Is it bad?
11719Is n''t he here?
11719Is you got to go so soon?
11719It was better, was n''t it,she asked, hovering,"to come than to send?"
11719Mahs''Hil''ry?
11719Mainland, or island?
11719Marching orders?
11719May I go with you, then, and learn why?
11719Miss Anna, what would you have? 11719 Miss Flora?"
11719Missie,sighed Anna''s maid,"see Mahs''Chahlie dah?
11719Missy?
11719My business--he glanced back in nervous protest as the drivers beneath gathered their reins--"will you kindly detain--?"
11719Nan, we need n''t stay if you--"Oh, Miranda, is n''t all this ours?
11719Nevertheless, morning and evening together, our winnings are-- how much?
11719No? 11719 No?"
11719No?
11719Nor in yours, either?
11719Not_ taken?_"Not a gun!
11719Now, good Lawd, child, ai n''t you in hahdship and dangeh enough? 11719 Now, that''s all, is n''t it?
11719Now, why so? 11719 Now,"she softly asked,"who is the helplezz-- the cage''--the doom''?
11719Now?
11719Of course I''ll go at once, but-- why-- if Miss Flora already--?
11719Oh, Captain Kincaid, what does it matter?
11719Oh, but surely he meant no--"Ah, my dear, did I ever give him the very least right to pick me out in that manner? 11719 Oh, not as an office, I hope?"
11719Only what?
11719Our battery?
11719Ours?
11719Paste?
11719Permit?
11719Pick up the pieces-- for me-- eh? 11719 She carried nothing but a message?"
11719St-- Ste-- Steve--"Is Steve going with them to Virginia?
11719Steve, where in the dickens--?
11719Taking breath out of the social rapids?
11719Talk of? 11719 Tell her the good first and then stab her with the bad?"
11719That Yankee fleet-- it has pazz''those fort''?
11719That he''s coming?
11719That? 11719 The better part of life"--she wrote--"is it not made up of such loving concealments?"
11719The dagger?
11719The flag?
11719The lightning must strike some time, you are thinking, eh?
11719The wha- at? 11719 Then how will you do it?"
11719Then why do we not turn about right here?
11719Then why do you behave as if it were?
11719Trouble a- plenty,softly asked Anna,"why do you--?"
11719Wants?
11719Was that your, eh,--?
11719We ca n''t expect any but the one kind now, can we?
11719We?
11719Well, uncle Jerry?
11719Well, what am I in Kincaid''s Battery for?
11719Well-- did you ever see a man so fond of men?
11719Well? 11719 Well?"
11719Well?--Well?
11719What are they?
11719What did Charlie do with the money?
11719What did you dream, dear?
11719What difference,Irby lingered to ask,"can an hour or two between trains--?"
11719What is it about?
11719What is it?
11719What is it?
11719What is that they are looking?
11719What, dear?
11719Where are we going?
11719Where is she, Fred?
11719Where''d you leave him?
11719Where''s Adolphe?
11719Which of them is the bad news about?
11719Whispering-- what?
11719Who is it?
11719Who-- who--?
11719Who-- who?
11719Why are you not on your way--?
11719Why belittle him with that?
11719Why do n''t the ships--?
11719Why do you say,asked its recipient,"''as good as any one,_ to- night_''?"
11719Why, Miss Anna--"Oh, Captain Kincaid, how could you?
11719Why, then,archly said Anna,"who is?"
11719Why, what, Connie, dear?
11719Why, who knows but Charlie Val--?
11719Why, you do n''t for a moment imagine--?
11719Why?
11719With a blush?
11719With never a word of good- by? 11719 Would n''t you- all as soon--?"
11719Yes, Miss Anna, from the first time I--"When did you get back from Mobile?
11719Yes, but would n''t you- all as soon drive round by Carondelet Street?
11719Yes, dear?
11719Yes, next day''twas Sunday, and whiles I was_ kneeling in the church_ the powder, the gun, the old man and the money-- Oh, Anna, what shall I do?
11719Yes, uncle?
11719Yes,laughed the old woman,"but why?
11719Yes? 11719 Yet God knows I''ve never given cause, except as--""A ladies''man?"
11719Yet at the same time my gifted granddaughter,remarked the old lady, in her native tongue and intent on her embroidery,"is uneasy, eh?"
11719Yet who,asked Constance,"ever heard her utter a moral sentiment?"
11719You do n''t mean she--?
11719You know my uncle expects now to be sent to Virginia at once?
11719You know, Flora, do n''t you,asked Miranda,"that the battery''s ordered away across to Tennessee?"
11719You mean-- his?
11719You see they''re under way?
11719You think there''s no harbor there?
11719You think? 11719 You went farther?
11719You were about to remark--?
11719You''ll come al- long too?
11719You''ll keep the dance going?
11719You''ll never tell on me?... 11719 ''T is maybe ab- out Kincaid''s Batt''rie, eh?
11719''Who is Sylvia?''"
11719( Would he stand by his speech, or his song?)
11719Ab- out what?"
11719Ah, what do we know about money, Captain Kincaid, we silly women?
11719All gone?
11719All ready?
11719And Anna: What could she say after what she had seen?
11719And Flora-- how picturesque everything she did!--had put--?
11719And after the swoop and its joy and its glory, when Johnnie should come marching home, whose Johnnies, and how many, would never return?
11719And did she instantly begin,"I take--?"
11719And how deep down are we calm or cold?
11719And how were the destitute pair to go?
11719And now came Constance:"Nan, where on earth is Fl--?
11719And since when?"
11719And the Valcours?
11719And were Hettie and Dilsie actually so in terror of the Yankees?"
11719And were the three verily back to stay?
11719And what was this beside?
11719And which had been captured when the city fell?
11719And why, gradually up the sidewalks''edges in the hot sun, did every one so solemnly uncover?
11719And yet I--""You must say?
11719And yet--""Yet what, love?"
11719Anna laughed again and blushed to the throat as she retorted,"What has that to do with our bazaar?"
11719Anna pointed Miranda to a line, and Miranda, with their cheeks together, read out:"''Is there no end to the liberality of the Crescent City?''"
11719Anna straightened, flashed, and then dropped again as she asked,"Is that all you know?"
11719Anna turned sharply:"Get here?
11719Anna turned:"Connie, what do your letters say?"
11719Anna, do you think"--the pair stood in the room with the inquirer''s eyes on the floor--"you think his cousin is like that?"
11719Anna?
11719Archly, in fond Spanish,"How do you feel now?"
11719Are you Hilary Kincaid?"
11719Are you aware that your groping hand has seized and rumpled into its palm a long strand of slender ribbon lately unwound from your throat?
11719Before you froze him stiff?"
11719Beg them, wo n''t you, to let her in?"
11719But I go-- under your flag, do n''t I?
11719But a fierce anxiety was on his brow and he gave no heed to Hilary''s dismissing thanks:"Captain, what''s''too late''?"
11719But as he rose Flora reminded him of"those few hundred gold?"
11719But could she do it, say it?
11719But for us, and to- day, even to get a li''l''mad, how is that a possibl''?"
11719But for what good- by when juz''returning?"
11719But homeward- bound Charlie and his captain, where were they?
11719But how?
11719But it must, do n''t you think?"
11719But she clung and dragged, speaking on wildly:"You know, Hilary, you know?
11719But then--"The treasure?"
11719But were these startling preparations neither child''s play nor dream?
11719But what do we know?"
11719But what new rapture was this?
11719But what-- what-- was troubling the poor ghost?
11719But when he demanded,"Why not?"
11719But where were old friends and battery sisters?
11719But, Miss Flora, tell me this: How on earth did she lose it?"
11719But, oh, how_ could_ you commend their_ chafing_ for battle and slaughter?"
11719But, why?
11719But-- don''t you know why I ca n''t?
11719By and by to"Johnnie''s"inquiries the blues replied:"He?
11719Ca n''t you make him quit it?"
11719Callender who"would no more ever again seem small, than the ocean?"
11719Callender?"
11719Can Connie be right?
11719Can you be sure the next pair you meet walking together of a summer eve are as starry as they look?
11719Captain Kincaid, will you give--?
11719Carriage horses-- mules?
11719Charlie Valcour broke in between them:"Is there not going to be any drill, after all?"
11719Charlie ventured a query:"It''s true, Captain, is n''t it, that Virginia''s out?"
11719Constance flashed indignantly:"What has he bet?"
11719Constance smiled:"Do you?"
11719Corinth?
11719Could Flora Valcour do like this--_ag- ains''the whole nature of a woman_--if she--?"
11719Could not the Callenders go to them and explain?
11719Could she tell him-- with Flora, as it were, still in his arms-- could she explain that she had been seeking him to cast herself there?
11719Could that be the clock again, and had she slumbered?
11719Did Hilary hear it, too?
11719Did I--?
11719Did n''t he tell you something back yonder in Carrollton?"
11719Did n''t you hear the battery cheering?
11719Did the bride herself realize what a hunger of loneliness was hers?
11719Did_ you_ give him a fair chance-- the kind I gave Steve?"
11719Do n''t see her to- night?"
11719Do n''t you know why?"
11719Do n''t you see?"
11719Do n''t you?
11719Do you think the mere fact that Adolphe truly and stick- to- it- ively loves Miss Flora gives her a right to know it?"
11719Do you want to git shot?
11719Does your Steve wait for friends to advise?...
11719Even the officer flushed with a fine ardor:"You have with you a member of that command?"
11719Every man of them took it-- when the war was over; but until then?
11719Flora clasped her hands as in ecstasy:"And is free?
11719Flora played at hesitation:"Ah, love, if perchanze that bugl''was to call you?"
11719Flora sparkled:"But do n''t you_ know_--perchanze?"
11719Flora turned prettily to Anna:"Have you?"
11719Flora turned to Anna:"You have that by letter?"
11719For him why always that name?"
11719For our ravished one you will, I suppose, permit his beloved country to pay-- in its new paper money at''most any discount-- and call it square, eh?"
11719For what?
11719For why he di''n''h- ask me?
11719For, honestly, Miss Anna, you-- from the first time I ever saw you, you-- you-- Were you going to speak?"
11719From that point why, now, did the faint breeze begin to waft a low roar of drums of such grave unmartial sort?
11719From the like of that who with a woman''s heart could withhold reply?
11719Gal, move one side a step, will you?"
11719Gibbs?"
11719Gone?
11719Greenleaf de trop?
11719Had Anna heard?
11719Had he never sung to her--"''I''d offer thee this hand of mine--''?"
11719Had not both Hilary and Anna met again this Greenleaf and through him found answer for all their burning questions?
11719Had not she a right, the right of a silent partner?
11719Had she not discerned from the beginning that those two were each other''s by natural destiny?
11719Had the leader, the idol of Kincaid''s Battery, failed in his endeavor?
11719Had the_ Virginia_ not sunk the_ Monitor_ and scattered the Northern fleets?
11719Had they also caught the sound?
11719Has Vicksburg-- fallen?"
11719Have you felt my thraldom, and are you trying to throw me off?
11719He lighted up drolly:"Do n''t you know what I''ve come for?
11719He paused, and then spoke lower:"Beloved?"
11719He spoke again:"May I tell you a secret?"
11719He spoke:"Still he got it into some good shape for you, the fund, did he not?"
11719He tenderly thrust her off:"Go, live to honor, happiness and true love, and let me--""Ezcape, perchanze, to Anna?"
11719He turned upon the detective:"Wo n''t it?"
11719He turned, scowling, to his sister:"What are we too late for, Flo?
11719He was calling:"Adolphe, where''s your man-- the minister?
11719Her brain teemed with speculations: Where, how occupied and in what state of things, what frame of mind, was Victorine, were Flora and Madame?
11719Here at Steve''s cottage with what details were''Randa and Connie busy?
11719Hilary Kincaid has--""Esca- aped?"
11719Hilary Kincaid, could she do that if she love''you?
11719Hilary?--Yes, Uncle?
11719His roaming look found the gray detective:"Where''s Captain Greenleaf?"
11719Horror in the voice yet love beaming from the eyes?
11719How could either explain?
11719How could you?"
11719How did he ever know-- how did he dare to know-- this was my window?
11719How do we know he has n''t?"
11719How hope to do so in all yonder chaos?
11719How much, now, could they hope to clear?
11719How was his wound?
11719Hurt?
11719I hope"--she must head him off again--"I hope you bring good news?"
11719I was just now thinking of a striking instance--""From Mobile?
11719I''ll have to pick up the pieces of you some day-- soon-- I hope-- mm?"
11719If-- if while there was yet time-- I had only got a certain word to--_him_--you know?
11719In kindness to his cousin, or in mild dislike of a woman''s battery?
11719In what bank had she its money?
11719Is he-- on this boat?"
11719Is it to save him for some one fairer and better?
11719Is it to save-- our battery?"
11719Is n''t his absence equally and perfectly innocent whether he could n''t come or would n''t come?
11719Is n''t that it?
11719Is not that sweet enough music to the ear of a venerable"--she whispered--"cormorant?"
11719Is this that maiden of the"belated, gradual smile"whom the singer himself so lately named"a profound pause?"
11719Is this your profound-- abiding-- consuming love?
11719It could not enter his mind that her desires were with the foe, yet his voice went deep in scorn:"And have you too turned coward?"
11719It-- it would have been almost indelicate, would n''t it?
11719Its very publicity--""Yes?"
11719Johnston?
11719Kincaid spoke:"Would you have me pass you by with my good news to go first to her with the bad?"
11719Kincaid''s Bat--?"
11719Like my girl any better?"
11719Looking farther away, over across Georgia to Fort Pulaski, so tremendously walled and armed, was the"invader"merely wasting lives, trying to take it?
11719Madame righted the shaken lamp, quietly asking,"Did you do that-- h- m- m-- for hate of the lady, or, eh, the ladies''man?"
11719Madame suddenly looked older, but quickly brightened again as Flora spoke on:"Do n''t you believe the truth is, now and then, the most effective lie?
11719May I touch your hand?
11719May I?"
11719Me leave you?
11719Meanwhile, was the city really in dire and shameful jeopardy, or was it as safe as the giddiest boasted?
11719Might not the compassion- wilted supplicant see the dear, dear prisoner?
11719Might the two not walk together a step or so?
11719Miranda answered low:"Suppose, Nan, that, after all, he should--?"
11719Miss Anna-- that her home is in ashes?"
11719Miss Flora--?
11719Mobile hasn''t--?"
11719Must we fire on that?
11719My love and a city-- Fred, ca n''t some one look and see if--?"
11719Never less al- lone then when al- lone?
11719No idle song haunts her now, yet a clamoring whisper times itself with every pulsation of her bosom:"The letter?
11719No?
11719Nor h- his-- his uncle?...
11719Nor"--the petitioner pressed closer with brightening eyes--"nor his-- cousin?"
11719Not even to Miranda?...
11719Not lost?
11719Not your wedding, Miss Anna?
11719Not-- not stolen?"
11719Now, in this last instant of opportunity at his and Miranda''s back, should she only replace the weapon or still dare the theft?
11719Now, meeting Hilary, what might she do or say?
11719Now, will you promise me?"
11719Of what avail to tell even Miranda, Connie, or Flora if they must not tell others?
11719Oh, Captain Kincaid, how could you?
11719Oh, God, am I clamoring for my week''s wages before I''ve earned an hour''s pay?
11719Oh, I wish you''d do that now, wo n''t you-- please?"
11719Oh, blast the others, when_ you_ do so you''re moping, and whether your men can stand it or not, I can''t!--what?...
11719Oh, how did-- how did you-- was it accid''--wasn''t it accident?
11719Oh, what are those few hundred for her to lose, if so she can only wipe that mistake?
11719Oh, what good under heaven can those old chaps do at the front?"
11719Oh, why did the call not come again?
11719On the way downstairs Flora seized her hands:"Oh, Anna, like always-- this is just bit- win us?
11719On which she and others had once--?
11719Or if she stood mute until he should speak, what could he say to count one heart- throb against what she had seen?
11719Or that it was not_ he_ and Flora on whose case she was being lured to speculate?
11719Ought Anna to be told it, or not?
11719Out in the hall the front door opened and closed and a sabre clinked:"Is Miss Callender at home?"
11719Over in the unseen camp the strain was once more--"I''d offer thee this hand of mine--""We''re turning in to be landed, are we not?"
11719Parole?
11719Passes?
11719Patience?
11719Please go at once, wo n''t you?...
11719Presently--"But not Mobile?
11719Presently--"Do you know,"she asked,"where your cousin proposes to be day after to- morrow evening-- in case you should want to communicate with him?"
11719See?
11719Seeking her?
11719Shall we?
11719She held the girl''s eye with a look of frightened admiration, murmuring,"You are a_ merveilleuse!_""Possible?"
11719She snatched up a toilet brush:"Come in?"
11719She was furiously hungry; was not breakfast ready?
11719She winced yet smiled:"And still-- your cousin-- he''s receive''no order?"
11719Slipping and clattering, he reined up and saluted:"How soon can Kincaid''s Battery be completely ready to go into camp?"
11719Sole fact?
11719Some men of the battery were here last evening-- You know the Abolition schoolmistress who was sent North that day?"
11719Surrender?
11719That looks tremendously modest in you, gentlemen,--what?...
11719That''s all, is n''t it?"
11719The General looked black:"You actually decline the gift?"
11719The arguer offered to laugh again, but Flora was sad:"You bil- ieve he''s that way-- Hilary Kincaid?"
11719The battery was at last-- Pardon?...
11719The battery, you know--?"
11719The commander''s eye came back to Irby:"Old man, how long have you had this?"
11719The day Steve left you said almost exact--""Con--?
11719The girl interrupted with a knowing touch:"You realize there''s something else, do n''t you?"
11719The hater of why s turned upon her sister:"Nan, what''s the matter?...
11719The inquirer brightened:"And why is n''t Charlie as good as any one?"
11719The lover''s reply was low and full of meaning:"Would you praise it if you had the courage?"
11719The others listened to Mandeville:"And''twas me dizcover''that tranzportation, juz''chanzing to arrive by the railroad--""Any one got a newspaper?"
11719The pain- racked listener flamed for joy and half left the arms that held him:"Oh, Fred, was n''t that heaven''s own music?"
11719The retaken prisoner shone with elation:"And those fellows of last night?--got them back?"
11719The room had filled with officers asking"who, how, what?"
11719The sparkling girl laughed:"Why, is n''t that-- with due modifications-- just what we''re here for?"
11719The uncle''s smile was satirical:"Did you ever, my boy, wish anything could be as_ I_ want it?"
11719The wee relic flashed, yet instantly was bland again:"You were about to say, however, that in the artillery--?"
11719Then Anna languidly inquired,"Who is it?"
11719Then his large estate, all lands and slaves, five hundred souls-- who would inherit that and hold it together?
11719Then she asked,"Did Charlie and Flora give him any chance-- to express himself?"
11719Then, as soon as you--""But will they allow a slave to do so?"
11719There was risk in the question, but where was there safety?
11719They say he''s as brave as a lion-- why is he never brave to me?"
11719They walked to and fro in embrace:"Dear, our front drawing- room, so ruined, you know, by that shell, last year--""Ah, the front?
11719Those who watch the game close and play it with courage--""And cheat with prudenze--?"
11719Thou art the star--"What could the balconies do but wave more joyously than ever?
11719Though it''s hard to tell, for I--""It''s from Mobile, you say?"
11719To secure Kincaid''s protection of your dear little brother''s health-- character-- morals-- eh?"
11719To whom had she--?"
11719Unharmed, herself, and no one badly hurt?
11719Up yonder at Corinth, our"new and far better"base, was Sidney Johnston an"imbecile,"a"coward,"a"traitor"?
11719Use your money?
11719V HILARY?--YES, UNCLE?
11719Was Anna''s blood surging like her own?
11719Was Steve avoiding their inquiries?
11719Was he grief blind?
11719Was he not to all these in simplest honor peculiarly accountable?
11719Was he, truly?
11719Was it not safe for the cause and just as safe for them?
11719Was it there Adolphe would this evening take his party, of which the dazzling Flora would be one and Anna, he hoped, another?
11719Was it_ not_ by France, after all( asked the Creoles), but only by Paraguay that the Confederacy had been"reco''nize''"?
11719Was not Flora Anna''s particular friend and Hilary''s"pilot"?
11719Was that for his friend''s sake, or is he only not brave enough to make one wild guess at me?
11719Was that truly New Orleans, back yonder, wrapped in smoke, like fallen Carthage or Jerusalem?
11719Was the city still undestroyed?
11719Was there_ no_ truth in the joyous report that McClellan had vanished from Yorktown peninsula?
11719Well, what amuses you now?"
11719Were the guns the foremost cause?
11719Were the hostile ships in sight?
11719What are you blushing for?"
11719What daring thing did any one ever do who waited for friends to advise it?
11719What did it so wildly avoid?
11719What did that mean; more news; news bad for these five in particular?
11719What do you reckon we''ve been doing all day long?
11719What frightens you?"
11719What is the precious explanation?"
11719What man or woman, if I could ever be so vile as to tell it, could believe the truth of this from me?
11719What must you say?"
11719What of it, if he ca n''t, himself, get his whole heart together to give it to any one?"
11719What right had she to give it room?
11719What should she do?
11719What surrender?
11719What was this long band of darkness where the gray road should be, in the dull shadow of the levee?
11719What word?
11719What you thing?"
11719What!--had seemed so even to stalwart Tom?--and Scipio?--and Habakkuk?
11719What''s the explanation?"
11719What?
11719What_ could_ it mean?
11719What_ was_ the matter?
11719When does he go?"
11719Whence such sudden horror, in this fair girl, of a thing known by her already before he came?
11719Where in the-- three parishes--?"
11719Where, did he say?
11719Where?
11719Which is just what Flora continued to do as the grandma tinkled:"And you said-- what?"
11719While I''m getting it, will you--?"
11719While there was praise of him what more could she want for sweet calm?
11719Who ever heard of a detective not returning a thing the moment he could?
11719Who is she, Miss Flora?
11719Who likes phrases stuffed into his mouth?
11719Who was with him; Charlie?"
11719Who would say that even now he might not be so standing, with her in every throb of his invincible heart?
11719Who, I?
11719Who?
11719Why did all the hotel''s gold- braided guests and loungers so quietly press out against its upper balustrades?
11719Why should n''t he confess himself in_ her_ interest?
11719Why should n''t they pass?
11719Why should they come at a walk?
11719Why, Con, would n''t you have thought better of him than that?
11719Why, Connie, if_ I''m_ willing to wait, why should n''t he be?
11719Why--?"
11719Why?
11719Will you deny us-- who had it from your hands-- your leave to call it yours?
11719Will you get the minister?"
11719With Thee are not all things possible?
11719Would Virginia come into them?
11719Would it ring straight on, or would it pause between that window and the orange and myrtle shades of Jackson Square?
11719Would that little be denied?
11719Would you like to ride with me?"
11719Would you-- begrudge her to me?"
11719Wounded and what, Flora, something worse?
11719Yes, yes, but by whom, and where?
11719Yet after all-- as long as good stories came easy-- why hand anything back-- to anybody-- even to-- him?
11719Yet she showed elation:"That means Anna and Victorine they have pazz''to the boat?"
11719Yet what would they say when they should meet?
11719Yez, if you would-- ahem!--juz''blow yo''gas without turning it?"
11719You did n''t notice when you recrossed the track back yondeh?
11719You do n''t need it now.... Fortitude?
11719You do n''t tell me you--?"
11719You do n''t want to go there?"
11719You have n''t got it?"
11719You know Fred''s over yonder, do n''t you?
11719You know Kincaid''s Foundry?
11719You know ab- out that, I su''pose?"
11719You know me, do n''t you?"
11719You know, dear, how suddenly Captain Kincaid had to leave for Mobile-- by night?"
11719You know, dear, in the infantry the marches are so cruel, the camps so--""But in the artillery,"piped the small dame,"they ride, eh?"
11719You promise?"
11719You sho''ly got the hafe o''Hinds County on you... Pemberton''s men?
11719You understand?
11719You want to give us your guarantee--?"
11719You''ve not heard ab- out that, neither?
11719You, eh,--default, I suppose?"
11719_ Was_ the loss of Cumberland Gap a trivial matter, and did it in fact not cut in two our great strategic front?
11719_ You_ hunt up the lost frog- sticker, will you-- while we--?"
11719_ is_ he anything to you?
11719a letter from his own hand-- with full account of-- what was this one?
11719about the Yankee--?"
11719and fire first?"
11719and that Kincaid''s Battery, without their field- pieces, are just here in Powell behind her heavy guns?...
11719and then warily,"You''ve taken your initials off all your stuff?...
11719and what could be surer, for Sam Gibbs?"
11719and"why that?"
11719can you read no better than that?
11719command the courage to do nothing when nothing is the only hard thing to do?
11719cried"Yank,""who is she, the one we''ve got?"
11719demanded Anna,"because Hil--?"
11719did Anna"rim- emb''r"a despatch- boat of unrivalled speed whose engines Hilary Kin--?
11719do you not know this?
11719do you think that would be fair?"
11719for me?
11719had n''t I the right to know?"
11719has your brother-- your Charlie!--come home alive and well?--What; no?--No, he has not?"
11719he began, but Constance interrupted:"The news is as good as ever, is n''t it?"
11719he loathingly drawled,"is it Damned Fools''Day again?"
11719he said to Anna,"do you get it?
11719high up among the black ropes?
11719how could even_ he_--the''ladies''man,''ha, ha!--_imagine_ any true woman would come to the call of a bugle?
11719how could she, a scant six hours after such a_ bid_ from herself?
11719how do you mean, lost?"
11719how is that I''m feeling?"
11719how?
11719in her face?
11719inquired her senior,"and to the same?"
11719interrupted Constance,"why not leave the forts?
11719is it only Bartleson''s?
11719let myself--?"
11719more infantile than her very self!--was not deep and complex?
11719not a pitched battle, but--?"
11719not the wedding?
11719not to be in this--''tea- party''?"
11719or was he scorn blind?
11719queried the grandmother in French,"why did you tell her the truth?
11719said Anna again,"is there really something worse?"
11719said Hilary, looking up from a third reading,"what, this?
11719she knows already?"
11719she laughed,"why do you enter--?"
11719she softly inquired;"not to New Orleans?"
11719since when and from where, Steve Mandeville?"
11719skeptically simpered the grandam,"--have to lose yourself to do it?"
11719stan''in''on de woodworks o''dat big gun?"
11719surely free?"
11719the giant?
11719the girl softly laughed,"was that your foot?"
11719the letter?"
11719thought Anna, or was he only trying, kindly, to appear so?
11719through what bugling, what rolling of drums and noise of hoofs, wheels, and riders had she lain oblivious at last?
11719to love before--"What sound was that below?
11719two or three tiny, needle- like-- h- m- m!--just over that farth''--?"
11719was not that a prettie?"
11719water?
11719well?
11719what does she see?
11719what is the matter?"
11719what time is it?
11719what wave away with such loving, tender pain?
11719where is Hilary Kincaid?"
11719where is that peerless chevalier, my beloved, accomplished, blameless, sagacious, just, valiant and amiable uncle?
11719where on earth did she get-- let''s sit in here-- get that rich, belated, gradual smile?"
11719where''s the minister?"
11719while he goes where glory waits him--?"
11719whispered the other,"how can that be?"
11719why?
11719why?"
11719will you impute_ all_ your own words to that Yankee, and his to yourself?"
11719would it be so to the very end and vanishment of all?
11719would not a much larger be far safer?
11719you have not given it?"
11719you shall not--""If she di''n''know, di''n''feel, di''n''see, thad you are loving her?"
29583''And are you going there again?'' 29583 ''And then?''
29583''Must he?'' 29583 ''My country?
29583''Seceded? 29583 ''Well, what does the laugh mean?''
29583''What do you mean?'' 29583 ''Where?''
29583''Whom does it concern?'' 29583 ''You do not?
29583A good doctor?
29583Ah, Colonel, did I understand you to say thirty- two?
29583Ah, what do you mean?
29583All? 29583 An Uncle John''s big property,"the old woman went on--"Dick is to have all dat, too, you tink?"
29583And after I_ do_ tell you, if I can,said the Doctor, eyeing the suspicious- looking mass,"I suppose that I am to be told why you wish to know?"
29583And as there seems nothing to be done, in the way of putting out the fire, saving anybody or killing anybody, suppose we go back to the Hill?
29583And how have you found it all out, so soon?
29583And now, old fellow, think you are strong enough to get back to the Hill?
29583And so you know them, and you know_ him_, and he is a good man, is he? 29583 And that is all you know, is it, sister?"
29583And the Potomac army-- that is going to advance pretty soon, as I hear-- is_ that_ all right in the respect you have named?
29583And the other lady-- Miss Harris, is she in the company?
29583And what am I?
29583And what are they doing up at the''big house,''as you call it?
29583And what are we to do about our mystery?
29583And what are you going to do?
29583And what did he say?
29583And what did you mean?
29583And what does the masquerade mean?
29583And what then, sir?
29583And what was that?
29583And what was the appearance of the moon when fully obscured?
29583And who are_ they_?
29583And who was the red woman?
29583And who will go in first, then?
29583And you can give no reason for this peculiar feeling?
29583And you did not write us a word about your coming?
29583And your bank account?
29583And your name?
29583Another sermon, eh, Joseph?
29583Any relation to Miss Bell, who accompanied us the other day on that-- that expedition?
29583Anything of consequence?
29583Anything wanted, Miss?
29583Are you hurt, Tom? 29583 Are you sober?"
29583But how?
29583But the Kearney elopement-- was not_ that_ romantic without any drawback? 29583 But this is not the''trouble''you spoke of, is it?"
29583But to return: Where was I? 29583 But what could_ he_ have been to_ her_?"
29583But what have you got, out- of- doors?
29583But where is my sister, and what was the music?
29583But where is that gentleman from the South?
29583But who are you that know_ me_?
29583But who could help it? 29583 But why this lady in particular?"
29583But would that poison produce any effect if applied outwardly?
29583But_ what_?
29583Can this be possible?
29583Can you tell me whether Mrs.---- lives on any of the floors of this house?
29583Captain,said the Colonel,"really I would rather--""Rather that I should talk about the present war, than anything in Scripture?
29583Colonel Bancker? 29583 Come here a moment, will you?"
29583Crazy? 29583 Did nothing occur between you, to make any change in her behavior towards you?"
29583Disturb me? 29583 Do I not?
29583Do I not?
29583Do n''t you see how bright that fire through the trees is getting? 29583 Do they allow such actions as that-- right here in public, and in the very presence of the officers?"
29583Do they?
29583Do you call Colonel Bancker low company, father?
29583Do you hear what she says? 29583 Do you know what you have been saying to me?
29583Do you mean to say that_ you_ have no superstitions whatever, Doctor?
29583Do you not think so, Colonel?
29583Do you see a policeman?
29583Do you see what there is on that bulletin?
29583Do you think so?
29583Do you think that it is of yourself alone that I am speaking? 29583 Do?
29583Do?
29583Does she too begin to share so bitterly in the-- in the--"In the prejudice? 29583 Egbert, eh?
29583Egbert, eh?
29583Eh? 29583 Eh?
29583Eh? 29583 Eh?"
29583Eh?
29583Excuse my touching upon your grief,said Bell,"but I suppose that you will wish black?
29583Fifty- four?
29583For_ my_ sake?
29583Give that up altogether?--or will you agree to take a hand in at personal investigation?
29583Going to the house soon?
29583Gone?
29583Great God!--can such beauty be real?
29583Has there been an incubus suddenly lifted from his breast?
29583Has you tried, honey?
29583Have I given you a strange and fearful picture? 29583 Have I yet more to give?"
29583Have I yet more to give?
29583Have we met with any accident?
29583Have you ever been at Niagara, Marion?
29583Have you not_ heard_ from him since?
29583Have you seen almost enough?
29583Her last living relative?
29583Her mother? 29583 Hey?
29583How can I ever meet him, after that-- when he knows that I have heard him spoken of in so terrible a manner?
29583How can I leave him unburied? 29583 How can you talk so flippantly of things so deplorable?"
29583How do I know it? 29583 How do you feel, brother?"
29583How do you know but he may be married?
29583How do you know this?--woman, how do you know this?
29583How long do you remain?
29583How_ can_ you be so absurd?
29583I believe that you are an Englishman by birth? 29583 I suppose you have not heard the telegraphic reports from Washington, this morning?"
29583I will_ try_--Miss Harris-- may I not say Josephine?
29583I wonder whether we shall be stopped on our way back, or not? 29583 I, father?
29583If they are not soldiers, why do they wear these trappings of the battle- field?
29583If they are soldiers, why are they loitering here when their comrades are being overpowered and slaughtered?
29583Impudence? 29583 Indeed I and how?"
29583Interests?--in conflict? 29583 Is she not_ very_ sick?"
29583Is_ that_ all the effect it produces upon you? 29583 Mammy-- you do n''t''member ole Mammy?"
29583Marion Hobart gone? 29583 Marion, who is that?"
29583May I ask your name, Miss----?
29583Mean? 29583 Mean?
29583Meaning_ me_?
29583Miss Hobart, will you be so kind as to read the news to me?
29583Miss Mary Crawford, I presume? 29583 Mrs. Halstead not sick?
29583Must you?
29583My resolution?
29583No objection to looking a little older?
29583No, did you?
29583No?
29583Not full yet, eh?
29583Not one? 29583 Not_ better_ than a brother, eh, cousin Josey?"
29583Nothing?--not even to set a watch upon the two houses we have named?
29583Now, is he a mimic? 29583 Oh, dey does n''t, eh, honey?
29583Oh, have you?
29583Oh, how can that be possible?
29583Oh, my cousin yonder? 29583 Oh, you ca n''t go, eh?"
29583Or a Virginia Unionist, faithful among the faithless, and too brave to be afraid anywhere?
29583Poison? 29583 See?
29583Seen_ me_?
29583She?
29583So Dick am rich, am he, honey? 29583 So mother is still in the city, is she?
29583Spose de good doctor so good that he nebber get well? 29583 Tell me: is there any point in which your interests would run counter to each other?
29583The big house? 29583 The granddaughter of that man?
29583The words of falsehood?
29583Think so?
29583Think so?
29583Think?
29583Thirty- nine_ what_, sir?
29583This is all so strange I-- what_ can_ you mean?
29583This is really the case?
29583This letter for me, and from_ him_? 29583 To Europe?"
29583To run away and be married? 29583 Too much?
29583Trouble?
29583Trying to get up again, eh, old fellow? 29583 Union men?
29583Use? 29583 Was that whistle intended for_ me_, sir?"
29583Well sir, and what am I to answer?
29583Well, Mary? 29583 Well, Miss Emily Owen, what have you to say to all this?"
29583Well, what is it? 29583 Well, what is the''besides''?"
29583Well, what of her?
29583Well, when do you get off?
29583Well,said Leslie, laughing,"what am I to understand?
29583Well?
29583Well?
29583Well?
29583Well?
29583Well?
29583Well?
29583Well?
29583Were you walking back towards the bridge? 29583 What ails you?
29583What am I doing? 29583 What are you going to do?"
29583What are you to- night?
29583What can I think?
29583What can you know of_ me_, and what interest can you take in me?
29583What consequence?
29583What do you mean? 29583 What do you mean?
29583What do you mean?
29583What do you mean?
29583What do you want?
29583What has become of your modesty? 29583 What if she should be a little secesh?"
29583What is he like? 29583 What is it you want?
29583What is offensive? 29583 What is that?"
29583What is the matter? 29583 What is the matter?"
29583What is the matter?
29583What is the matter?
29583What more could I do, I should like to know?
29583What next, I wonder? 29583 What shall I do?
29583What shall I do?
29583What sorcery have you practised upon that poor girl, to drive her into this state of distraction, red fiend?
29583What was my resolution?
29583What would you say now, Susy, if I could put back some of the light into Miss Mary Crawford''s eyes?
29583What? 29583 What?
29583What? 29583 What?"
29583What_ is_ the use of all that, Tom?
29583When did all this occur?
29583Where is Mary?
29583Where is Provost Marshal Kennedy, I wonder?
29583Where shall I meet you next, Ralston?
29583Which you regard as among the most foolish things of your life? 29583 Who are they?"
29583Who is gone?
29583Who is it?
29583Who spoke?
29583Who was_ who_?
29583Who''s_ he_? 29583 Whose farm is this?"
29583Why curse it, woman, what are you talking about? 29583 Why did n''t she come along?
29583Why do n''t you call him''Eg.,''as you do sometimes? 29583 Why do n''t you go, then?"
29583Why do you speak so lightly when I am so wretched?
29583Why do you speak so?
29583Why this, sir?
29583Why, she does not come here now- a- days; and what can you want of her?
29583Why, you do not mean to say that you would fight him?
29583Will you understand me when I say that two of the dearest friends I have in the world are your cousins Isabel and_ Richard Crawford_?
29583Will you, honey?
29583Wonder? 29583 Would you like to see Niagara?"
29583Would you?
29583Yes, Uncle, what can I do for you?
29583Yes,said Emily,"we--""Write?"
29583Yes?
29583You are a newspaper man still?
29583You are going to- day, then?
29583You are ready to go with me?
29583You believe that you can reach the Union camp in safety?
29583You call me brave, do you?
29583You call yourself a lawyer, honey, and do such things as dat''are? 29583 You could n''t exactly inform me_ where_, could you?"
29583You do not know the young man?
29583You go to theatres: is he fond of theatrical performances?
29583You have been in Europe, have you not? 29583 You have been in the front parlor some time?"
29583You have no confidence in supernatural revelations in any relation of life?
29583You have seen nothing frightful-- dreadful-- terrible?
29583You heard the story those men were telling?
29583You know where the livery stable round the corner is, on Houston?
29583You mean that I must think your love silly, unless I happen to be in love myself?
29583You meddling fool!--what can that draft do to_ me_? 29583 You say that the Union troops have won the fight to- day?"
29583You think that a singular person?
29583You want Mary and de property bofe?
29583You wo n''t? 29583 You''member what Aunt Synchy is, now?"
29583You_ are_ to marry him, after this warning?
29583_ My_ cruelty? 29583 _ You?_"and the country girl looked at her as if a pair of horns had suddenly sprouted from under the dark hair.
29583''But then, if this is so, why does Mason remain, and why is the fact kept in the dark?''
29583''Myself or some other?''
295839.--"Who has not heard of the celebrated Madame Prewster, who can be consulted with entire satisfaction?
29583Am I going back soon enough?
29583Am I mistaken?"
29583And I suppose you think that our regiment lost heavily, Colonel?
29583And I wonder what becomes of all the extra rations that are drawn for them every day?
29583And are its missiles of death and the diseases to which its exposures give rise, especially commissioned to repay past crimes and by- gone errors?
29583And are worms therefore never to be trodden upon?
29583And how impossible it seemed that he_ could_ be uttering other words than those of entire truth?
29583And how''s your cat?"
29583And is this inconsistent?
29583And may not the_ houses_ indeed come into judgment?
29583And may that not be what ails her?"
29583And now what had caused the shadow on the matronly face of Mrs. Owen, and the pout on the red lip of Emily?
29583And that I am a true friend?"
29583And was not the long dissertation at the beginning of this chapter, to prove the applicability of the spy system to war time, an absolute necessity?
29583And what was that which she held in her hand, and the removal of which had produced so wonderful a transformation?
29583And whither did that carriage roll?
29583And yet, why not?
29583And yet-- what shall be said of the facts-- uncolored and undeniable facts-- narrated in a subsequent chapter?
29583And you-- are you staying here?"
29583And you?
29583Are you crazy?"
29583Are you listening?"
29583Are you satisfied?"
29583Are you sick?
29583Are you_ sure_ the Union troops have won the victory?"
29583At all events, I went down- stairs and opened the parlor- door, bold as a sheep, when-- what do you think happened?
29583Besides, if I quarrelled with him, who made me?
29583But I wonder what becomes of the extra pay issued to seven hundred men, when there are only three hundred entitled to receive it?
29583But he added a mental enquiry that was by no means shaped into words:"_ Did_ I say to him that I was going to Europe?
29583But how badly are you hurt, Jack?
29583But how was it to be obtained?
29583But is_ she_ his wife?
29583But tell me-- what_ can_ be the matter?"
29583But they are not married?
29583But what can a kind- hearted old lady do, with two young ones and one a model of her sex, tugging at her apron- strings?
29583But what do you mean?"
29583But what do you mean?--that I should get a doctor to-- to-- put him out of the way?"
29583But what has all that to do with to- day, and why were you pointing towards the door?"
29583But what is it all, Cousin Joe?"
29583But what was it that Tom Leslie saw, more than is revealed to the natural eyes, looking on that scene when he had contemplated it for a few moments?
29583But where is Uncle?--I have not seen_ him_ yet?"
29583But why repeat the story that has no variety except in horror?
29583But, by the way, did you ever read that singular novel,''Border War,''by a South- western writer, Jones, published several years ago?"
29583Can we see her?"
29583Colonel Bancker-- as you_ try_ to call yourself?"
29583Come, Mrs. Owen, is supper ready?"
29583Could anything be more shameful?--anything more despicable?
29583Could he play a part if he should attempt it?"
29583Could human presumption go farther?
29583Could this man still have one virtue remaining?
29583Davis, Yancey and Company?"
29583Did n''t I just tell you that I had half made up my mind to take him?
29583Did they know each other or only something_ of_ each other?
29583Did you come all the way alone?"
29583Did you know him?"
29583Do n''t you see that?"
29583Do n''t you think so, Colonel?"
29583Do n''t you think that is possible, cousin Joe?
29583Do n''t you think that will do, dear?"
29583Do you guess the riddle?
29583Do you hear me?
29583Do you hear?"
29583Do you mean to insult both your father and myself?"
29583Do you not recognize him?"
29583Do you not remember me?"
29583Do you remember one day, five or six weeks ago, when I came into your house a little in a hurry, with a bunch of violets for Dick?"
29583Do you see that tree?"
29583Do you see?"
29583Do you think you can lean against that tree and keep from fainting until I run and see whether my little joker went in the right direction?"
29583Do you understand me?
29583Do you understand, Miss Hobart?"
29583Do you understand_ now_?''
29583Does it hook?"
29583Does the music disturb you?"
29583Does this sound like sneering at the wife''s pride and devotion?
29583Does war indeed have a mission beyond the national good or evil for which it is instituted?
29583Does you hear, honey?"
29583Done you know dem policers are sneakin''aroun''ebberywhere, up de stairways as well as ebberywhere else?
29583Egbert Crawford, Tombs lawyer, when he said to Aunt Synchy,"What more could I do, I should like to know?"
29583Eh, Egbert?"
29583Eh, Leslie, is that you?
29583Eh, did n''t I?"
29583Eh, honey?"
29583Eh?
29583Eh?"
29583Eh?"
29583Eh?"
29583Emily,_ I have myself once married a man whom I loathed, and I know what it means!_""You, Aunt?
29583Everything else in our surroundings has changed-- why not he?
29583Fortunately, he did not recognize me-- perhaps, thanks to this hat--(it_ is_ an immense hat, is n''t it, Harding?)
29583Gentlemen-- gentlemen-- how can I leave my poor grandfather unburied?"
29583Getting up a bogus regiment, or something of that kind, is n''t he?"
29583Good heavens, what are you saying, Josephine?
29583Got any pigs and chickens?
29583Grave or gay?"
29583Had he_ more_ to do with the Police?
29583Had there been, for once, no carriage in waiting at the livery?
29583Had they met before, and if so, when and where?
29583Had we no brave men, then, that only these apologies for men are exhibited?
29583Halstead?"
29583Halstead?"
29583Has he gone off to make arrangements with the fortune- teller, I wonder, so as to play a trick upon us when we get there?"
29583Hate me-- he?"
29583Have I a right to her, now?
29583Have I said enough?"
29583Have n''t been long-- have I?"
29583Have not the days following Manassas, and the Seven Days before Richmond, and Fredericksburgh, been hours in a national Gethsemane?
29583He must be one of the three-- but which?"
29583He was your lover, of course?"
29583Her frightened companion made an effort to do so, and she went on:"You believe that I have been right in what I have said, do you not?
29583His pen has not been idle, even in his happiness-- may not that have done_ his_ appointed work?
29583His uniform was becoming dangerous, but how give it up?
29583How can that be managed?"
29583How do you like it?
29583How do you like me?"
29583How old_ are_ you?"
29583How should she get out of the room?
29583How to get it, even then?
29583How was_ that_?
29583How will that do, Aunt Synchy-- you old black anatomy?
29583Hum-- where''s Dalton?"
29583I am a Virginian, and no d-- d Yankee-- does anybody want to fight me?''
29583I got the chambermaid to enquire, and she found that a tall man came with a close carriage--""A tall man?
29583I know there is no law here in my behalf; but as a_ man_ answering to a_ man_, what have you to say to this?"
29583I said literature-- do you see that desk littered with papers, you ungrateful wretch?"
29583I say, Mr. Leslie, you are not an unscrupulous destroyer of female innocence-- one of those dreadful fellows we read about in the books, are you?"
29583I shall see you again?--you will not leave West Falls until-- until--""Until_ you are safe_?
29583I wonder if there are any more regiments in the same condition?"
29583I wonder if this place is haunted-- just a little?"
29583If he was a coward, why would he have placed himself in a position which must by- and- by be one of danger?
29583If there was such an emphasis, did Richard Crawford hear and recognize it?
29583If this was possible then, why not now?"
29583If we have gone so fast already, how fast may we go by- and- bye?
29583If we put them_ en train_ for that pleasant consummation, shall it not be held sufficient?
29583Is he close by us?"
29583Is it Marion Hobart, or may he not have been married before?"
29583Is it possible that I can ever be lifted out of this pit of despair?"
29583Is the old man living still?"
29583Is this to be a wholesale attack, then, on our national courage?
29583It seems you_ have_ seen him; and why were my orders not obeyed?"
29583Johnson?
29583Josephine broke into the theme at once:"Who was he?"
29583Leslie!--what have I said?
29583Leslie?"
29583Let me see-- you were not at Fair Oaks, were you?"
29583Madame does not often receive more than one at once, but will do so for this distinguished company, if they wish?"
29583May I ring for it, for an hour?"
29583May I tax you so far?"
29583Men faithful to the country and the old flag?"
29583Modesty, where were you about this time?
29583Never?
29583Newport-- Purgatory-- Dumpling Rocks-- everywhere-- what fish we caught and what a jolly month we had-- didn''t we?
29583Next year?
29583No change, except age, could take away the charm from the rich chestnut auburn( is there not such a color?)
29583No want of courage?
29583No, I do not mean how he looks, for you know that I saw him for a moment; but what is his disposition?
29583No?
29583Not much, eh?"
29583Not_ content_, but_ pleased_?
29583Now if I had met_ Miss Crawford_ at Newport two years ago, who knows but affairs might have been different?
29583Now you can have some idea what I have suffered to- night, when I saw the same pit opening for_ you_?
29583Of course you are not going away until after dinner?"
29583Oh, what can it all mean?"
29583Once more, what was it?
29583One man behind him, indeed, leaned over and said:"Lost your girl, eh?"
29583One of the women spoke:"It will come to- morrow at midnight?"
29583Perhaps you want a better look?
29583Perhaps you would like to have_ that_, while I am at it?"
29583Send the vixen packing, bag and baggage, with a boxed ear for a parting present, as she might have done with all propriety?
29583Shall I renew it?
29583Shall I walk with you?
29583Shall he too look on what I have to reveal, or will you behold it alone?''
29583She had been absent from the house less than an hour-- what could have occurred to her, within that space of time, to change their relative positions?
29583She is a little of an oddity, and a very_ pretty_ little oddity-- don''t you think so, Richard?"
29583Should he permit_ her_ to be subjected to the same influences?
29583Sly Joe!--why did she use the plural number,--"friends,"and"they"?
29583Smith and Jones did_ not_"come on"at the instant, and what they caught from the two officers was the following:"Not_ one_ in a week?"
29583Somebody must be making something out of it-- eh?
29583Stop-- answer me one question-- has he gone?"
29583Superintendent, you consider all this of no consequence?"
29583Suppose I should lose my faith in fortune- telling before I ever had any experience in that direction-- wouldn''t it be dreadful?"
29583Suppose brother and myself were going to Niagara and should ask you to go with us-- would you be pleased to go?"
29583TWO FRIENDS-- A RENCONTRE BEFORE NIBLO''S-- THREE MEETINGS WITH A MAN OF MARK-- MOUNT VERNON AND THE INAUGURATION-- FRIEND OR FOE TO THE UNION?
29583Tell me, quick, what is it that has happened?"
29583Tell me-- is there a sad secret of your life connected with that song?
29583Tell us what you saw?"
29583That is all, grandfather, is it not?
29583That is-- I mean to ask-- are you alone?"
29583That look said so plainly:"_ Can_ you indeed help me?
29583That you have been testing the skill of this seeress, or that you are about to do so?"
29583The characters here introduced may live and move, but relieved against what?
29583The instant after, she asked:"Is he here still?
29583There is an old adage that some of us may have read in the primer( or was it the hymn- book?)
29583They had accidentally touched, when drifting down the stream of life, and who should thenceforth have power to separate them?
29583They never intended to go back; for were not the elections coming within a few months?
29583They seem to have had neither scouts nor spies, and what else than failure_ could_ be the result?"
29583This difference goes much farther even than the regulation( can such a thing be regulated?)
29583Thompson?
29583Tired?"
29583To- morrow?
29583Was ever a heroine so placed, even by English romancers or French dramatists?
29583Was not here a corroboration of the theory of the Rue la Reynie Ogniard?
29583Was not_ there_''courage''for you?"
29583Was there ever a man( or woman) who did not look in through a half- closed curtain, precisely because there is no propriety whatever in doing so?
29583Was there something ominous in this sudden disturbance of the Sabbath quiet?
29583Was this on account of the near approach of the hour of her marriage?
29583We were just going down to Taylor''s for a little lunch, when this awkward affair occurred: may we ask you to join us, gentlemen?"
29583Well, do you happen to remember what I told you and Dick on that occasion?"
29583Were their voices only for others, and did eye speak to eye, lip to lip, and heart to heart, when they were alone together?
29583Were they haggling, as robbers have been known to do after successful operations in plundering, over the division of the spoils?
29583Were they well founded?
29583What business had you to look at him?
29583What business is that of yours, woman?
29583What can be his position, and what is his business here at the present moment, I wonder?"
29583What did he find here, and from her?
29583What did the outraged wife?
29583What did you see, Tom?"
29583What do you mean, sir?"
29583What do you see there?--tell me frankly-- truth or deception?"
29583What do you think of it?"
29583What do you want now?
29583What does it all mean?"
29583What have we here?
29583What have you seen?
29583What if another meeting with that mysterious woman was at hand?--if the scenes of the Rue la Reynie Ogniard were about to be re- enacted?
29583What is this?"
29583What kept him so long?
29583What made you fall?"
29583What makes you think that she is_ gone_, as you call it?"
29583What matter how many words they spoke, or what formed the burden of those words?
29583What matter, thereafter, how many times they were pressed together, or how long that pressure lingered?
29583What next?
29583What shall I do?
29583What shall I do?
29583What shall I do?"
29583What was it like, if you saw it over the Falls?"
29583What was it you were saying, Miss Harris?"
29583What was it, indeed, that Josephine Harris had dimly discovered?
29583What was it?
29583What was that something?
29583What was the name?"
29583What was there in his glance, that met the eye of Joe Harris, as he did so-- and gave her so plain a confirmation of her worst suspicions?
29583What would be the end of this?
29583What, then, was the fatal secret?
29583What_ was_ the cause of this sudden emotion?
29583When will that marriage vow be spoken?
29583Where are you hit?"
29583Where had he put it?
29583Where?
29583While his right wing fell back before an attack in force, his left might swing in towards Richmond and even take the city-- who could say?
29583Who has not, I wonder?"
29583Who is married or dead, or whom do you intend to kill, or what is it?"
29583Who knows but they might behave the better for it, when out of your sight altogether?
29583Who knows, except God in heaven?
29583Who was the young man from whom your father took you away?
29583Why did not she come along?"
29583Why did you not let me know that you were going away?"
29583Why does she answer my letters no more?"
29583Why not now?
29583Why will people, even those belonging to the most irreproachable classes of society, indulge in these little fibs upon occasion?
29583Why, cousin Josey, where did all these stories come from, then?"
29583Will you go with me, Joe?
29583Will you go with us?"
29583Will you help me?"
29583Will you swear it?"
29583Will you take another, to make an old man die happier?"
29583Will you?"
29583Will you?--That''s a good girl?"
29583Wo n''t he get well too soon, now, and perhaps be up at West Falls before I am more than half ready for him?"
29583Worcester is lost, and with it a kingdom: is he to be henceforth a crownless king and a hunted fugitive, or has the future its compensations?
29583Would they come out and get away, after all, before the coming of the other vehicle?
29583Would you have thought me so prudent?"
29583Yet what could the poor girl do, except to wait the crash and be ready to act as peacemaker when the worst came to the worst?
29583Yet who were the conquered eventually?
29583You are defeated and a fugitive?"
29583You are not glad to know that the man you once loved, and who yet loves you so dearly, is true and loyal?
29583You are not going out anywhere to- morrow evening?"
29583You is too smart an do n''t believe in de Obi?"
29583You know that?"
29583You look better and feel better within the last hour--""Eh, what?"
29583You want to go?
29583You wear a Colonel''s uniform-- where is your regiment, sir?
29583You were here to see the eclipse, then?"
29583You will wear mourning?"
29583Your bandage-- is it all right?
29583Your eyes are younger than mine-- how many of those rebels are there?"
29583_ His_ forgiveness?"
29583_ I_ have not, at least; have_ you_, Bell?"
29583_ McDowell''s_ army?"
29583_ What_ is her name?"
29583a close carriage?"
29583an you am poor?
29583and was it not necessary to plough the political field with those very harmless swords in order to raise a fall crop of offices?
29583and what is that?"
29583and why, I should like to know?"
29583asked others when that halt was longer protracted; and"Are we_ never_ going to get on?"
29583asked the other?
29583but the_ shape_ of that head!--oh father of that man, what right had you to visit your own sins upon a succeeding generation in such a manner?
29583can that be possible?"
29583cried the father with one son remaining of his six brave boys;"Have I yet more to give?"
29583did I not hear cannon again?
29583did you hear that?"
29583do you know him?"
29583do you think I can not penetrate that thin disguise-- that old man''s hair and those false wrinkles?
29583echoed the widow whose last stay was to be taken from her; and"Have I yet more to give?"
29583eh?
29583eh?"
29583gone where-- gone how?"
29583oh, my God, what shall I do?"
29583or does he keep watch of me and know my every movement, through the mysterious agency of the woman of the Rue la Reynie Ogniard?"
29583or had Harding concluded to go to sleep on the road?
29583poison?"
29583queried Bell; and"Well?"
29583said Harding,"is that really the emblem?"
29583said Leslie in return,"what else can he be?"
29583said Leslie, involuntarily pulling up his collar at the words"distinguished company,"while"Good gracious-- how did they know that_ we_ were coming?"
29583said the Captain,"have n''t you made a mistake in your man?
29583the young girl cried in alarm;"what has happened-- what have I said?--tell me: are you in sudden pain?"
29583was there muttering thunder in the heavens?--thunder from a sky hitherto all bright blue?
29583well, what do you make of him?
29583what do you want?''
29583what has happened to my country?''
29583what is the matter?"
29583what more can there be, whether I am to believe you or not?"
29583what of her?
29583what shall I do?"
29583what''s the matter, Dick?
29583who are you and what do you want here?"
29583who should have circulated false reports?"
29583who was addressing_ you_?"
29583why do n''t you recognize him, Bell?
29583why should there be anything of this involved?
29583why what is the matter?"
29583you are not afraid to trust me with him, are you?"
29583you have n''t been in there, have you?"
7504''Fraid of the wet, young man?
7504A farmer?
7504A private does n''t generally have a Kentucky thoroughbred, does he?
7504Ai n''t it nearer the water? 7504 Ai n''t this about where Saunders''old boat is?"
7504Am I the first one back?
7504Am I the first one through?
7504And Chattanooga...?
7504And if we are questioned?
7504And if we''re completely cornered?
7504And so you''re going to enlist, eh?
7504And were n''t there any Union sentries?
7504And who''s Andrews?
7504And who''s that?
7504Anybody hurt?
7504Are we going to stop?
7504Are you all right, Shadrack?
7504Are you one of_ them_? 7504 Are you ready?"
7504Are you soldiers?
7504At Adairsville?
7504Burning what?
7504But how did they know that I was in this part of the country?
7504But what did you do?
7504But what...?
7504But you knew I''d come if I could, did n''t you?
7504But, Bert, how were you going to do it?
7504Ca n''t we stop and fight?
7504Ca n''t you tell me? 7504 Can you get up?"
7504Can you give me something to eat?
7504Can you make it?
7504Can you ride? 7504 Can you tell us where the Widow Fry lives?"
7504Corporal?
7504Did I tell you about that, Knight?
7504Did you ride far last night?
7504Do you know exactly where this road is taking us?
7504Do you know who will take my place?
7504Do you prefer my kitchen to my dining- room, sir?
7504Do you think the passenger train will pull out?
7504Do you think we could get some supper here?
7504Do you think, Bert, that Captain Moffat would let me go in your place?
7504Do you want to fight?
7504Do you want to go? 7504 Do you?"
7504Does Corporal Herbert Brewster of Cleveland, Ohio, live here?
7504Does there seem to be any chance of the storm ending, sir?
7504Everyone?
7504Friends of yours, maybe?
7504Goin''to fight the Yanks, eh?
7504Going to enlist?
7504Had n''t we better destroy the track?
7504Has it steam up?
7504Have a good nap, young man?
7504Have a hard time getting through?
7504Have we any way of identifying ourselves?
7504Have you been here all the time?
7504He''s pretty easy with them, is he?
7504Hello,he gasped; then, when he had overcome his surprise,"Where are you?"
7504Hey? 7504 How about the ankle?"
7504How about the tunnel?
7504How about the tunnel?
7504How about these clothes? 7504 How are you, Burns?
7504How are you?
7504How are you?
7504How d''you do?
7504How did you fare, men?
7504How did you get out of it?
7504How did you say that bridge caught on fire?
7504How far are we from Wartrace?
7504How far behind you?
7504How long have I been sleeping?
7504How long will it be before the special is here?
7504How many are with you?
7504How many of them were there that stole the train?
7504How much fuel have we?
7504How much fuel have you left?
7504Huh?
7504Huh?
7504I do n''t suppose you''re hungry, are you?
7504I presume,she continued,"that you know all the people in the county?"
7504I wonder how far the others got?
7504I''d like to have a commission, of course, but...."But what?
7504I''m asking what sort of a Yank trick this is? 7504 I''m....""What?"
7504If we give you our words not to try escaping,asked Tom,"will you let go our arms?
7504If we''re going to delay a day, should n''t someone be sent back with a message for General Mitchel?
7504In the Southern army?
7504Is Fleming Cou...."And is your name Beecham?
7504Is one of them the Captain?
7504Is that the only reason?
7504Is there a passenger train behind you, sir?
7504It''s all so terrible, is n''t it? 7504 Just traveling through?"
7504Oh, is that so? 7504 Password?"
7504Put up an obstacle at one of these curves, and attack them from ambush? 7504 Shall we go together?"
7504Shirt? 7504 So?"
7504Star?
7504Take a horse across today? 7504 That so?"
7504The Captain''s coming to see me, eh? 7504 The Yanks?"
7504The engineers?
7504The railroad between Atlanta and Chattanooga?
7504Then what do you want?
7504Then why are they bringing this special train down from Chattanooga with all the supplies?
7504These are the men, I presume, Smith?
7504They have?
7504Through that fire?
7504Through to Corinth?
7504Tonight?
7504Was n''t it strange that you went directly to him? 7504 Water there, too?"
7504Well, then, who are you?
7504Well, they_ did n''t_ tell you much, did they? 7504 Well, what is it?"
7504Wet?
7504What are you getting scared about?
7504What did you do to it?
7504What did your uncle say? 7504 What do yon mean by running me down that way?"
7504What do you mean?
7504What do you mean?
7504What do you think we''d better do? 7504 What do you think, Wilson?"
7504What do you think?
7504What do you want to know for?
7504What do you want us to do? 7504 What does this mean, Cummins?"
7504What does this mean?
7504What happened?
7504What is it?
7504What is this scheme of yours, Bert?
7504What shall I do with the horse?
7504What she say?
7504What sort of engineers?
7504What then?
7504What was that?
7504What were you men doing down the Ringgold road?
7504What will you do about Mitchel at Huntsville?
7504What''s happened to_ you_?
7504What''s that?
7504What''s the Captain''s name?
7504What''s the trouble there?
7504What''s the trouble?
7504What''s the use of standing here in the mud?
7504What''s this train? 7504 What''s this-- what''s this?"
7504What''s this?
7504What?
7504What?
7504When did the freight leave Adairsville?
7504When did you leave?
7504Where are you from?
7504Where are you?
7504Where did you come across the river?
7504Where did you find them?
7504Where is Fleming County?
7504Where''re you going?
7504Where''re_ you_ going?
7504Where''s Shadrack?
7504Where?
7504Whereabouts in Kentucky do you hail from?
7504Who are you, and what do you want?
7504Who are you?
7504Who are you?
7504Who are you?
7504Who''s with you?
7504Whose place is that?
7504Why is that?
7504Why not take''em to Chattanooga now?
7504Why not wait until we get back to Judson? 7504 Why not?
7504Why not?
7504Why not?
7504Whyfor you do n''t tell us there''s a fire down Ringgold way?
7504Will some ham an''some bread do?
7504Will this be all right?
7504Will you ask him? 7504 Will you ask the Captain now?"
7504Will you be my guest at breakfast, sir?
7504Will you come with me, please?
7504Will you make sure that my horse is being properly cared for, Captain? 7504 Will you volunteer?"
7504Wo n''t you let me take you to the house?
7504Yes-- what...?
7504Yes? 7504 Yes?"
7504You and I''ll go together, eh, Tom?
7504You do n''t happen to be Tom Burns of the raiders, by any chance, do you?
7504You do n''t think that they''ll drop that last box- car there?
7504You have some pretty bad rainstorms in this part of the country, do n''t you?
7504You really want to go, do n''t you?
7504You say this Yank''s a young man?
7504You thought you''d get me, did n''t you, Alf? 7504 You were in the railroad raid, were n''t you?"
7504You''re Corporal Brewster''s cousin, eh?
7504You''re a locomotive engineer, are n''t you? 7504 You''re absolutely positive that you want to go?
7504You''re going straight home, I suppose, Tom?
7504You''re not a Southerner, are you?
7504You''wake, massah?
7504Yours?
7504And Marjorie Landis?
7504And how are all the people?
7504And how was it you did n''t take the train on Friday, as we planned?
7504And perhaps...?"
7504And what did you do to your ankle?"
7504And where did you live before you came here?"
7504Are there any more behind you?"
7504Are there any others here?"
7504Are you a Southerner or are you a Yank?"
7504Are you journeyin''far?"
7504Are you strong enough?"
7504Are you sure that none of them reached the line on the other side of Chattanooga?"
7504But if you''re going to the trouble of arresting us for burning.... What was it we burned, Tom?"
7504Ca n''t you find it?"
7504Can you get back there and tell the men?"
7504Can you give us a place to sleep?"
7504Can you row, Sam?"
7504Can you travel today?"
7504Can you...?"
7504Coming through to enlist?"
7504Company B is in the fight now, is n''t it?"
7504D''you live around this a- way, young man?"
7504Did he believe their story?
7504Do all of you understand?"
7504Do any of you know Brown?"
7504Do n''t you see what it''ll mean if I''m found near here?
7504Do you men, from your experience, think that the General can reach Huntsville on Friday?"
7504Do you think he will let me go, Bert?
7504Do you think we''d have to stop and change uniforms every time the ark turned?"
7504Do you understand?"
7504Drop me a line, eh?"
7504Finally he asked,"What are you going to Wartrace for?"
7504Got a Johnny Reb for our breakfast?"
7504Have we got any shirts, Mary?"
7504Have you any questions to ask about the route?"
7504Have you been here all the time, Joe?"
7504Have you got them?"
7504He had no sooner disappeared than Tom asked in a low voice:"Why did you do that?"
7504He said,''I do n''t suppose you''d like to have that Certain Person''s horse again, would you?''
7504He stopped one man and asked:"Where can I find a hotel?"
7504He turned to the other soldiers, and asked,"What do you think?
7504He''s a fine horse.... Where is that bed, Captain?"
7504His parents in Cleveland?
7504How are you, Wilson?"
7504How did he guess that I was one of them?"
7504How had they done it?
7504How had they passed the broken rail, the ties along the track, the box- cars and the snag?
7504How''d you guess it?"
7504How''ll you like that?"
7504I do n''t suppose you know that he''s on the sick list with a bad ankle?"
7504I wonder when this rain will stop?
7504I wonder where Andrews is going?"
7504I... ca n''t I do anything?"
7504If Beauregard''s supplies were cut off between Atlanta and Chattanooga, what would happen to Beauregard?"
7504If he spent the day here would he be stronger when night came again after having gone twenty- four hours without food?
7504If you will come with me?"
7504In the first place, what''s your name and regiment?"
7504Is Fleming County very large?"
7504Is he still alive?
7504Is it a secret?"
7504Is that clear?"
7504Is the fire going all right?"
7504Is the passenger train waiting for me at Calhoun?"
7504Just because you''re ankle is broken?"
7504Let''em walk a couple of paces ahead, eh?"
7504Let''s see-- was it yesterday or the day before?"
7504Oh, what''s the matter, Tom?"
7504Say, you do n''t s''pose...?"
7504Security?
7504Shadrack grabbed him and asked:"What was that we struck back there?"
7504Shirt?
7504The Captain smiled:"What''s your name?"
7504The Yanks?"
7504Then as he came closer:"Who are you?"
7504Then he demanded sternly:"Why is n''t that local freight here?"
7504Then:"Where''d that other one go?
7504There''s not much around here, is there?"
7504Tom heard him bolt from the room and up the corridor, screaming:"Is he in there with the other two?
7504Tom stopped abruptly, caught his breath, and asked:"Is this the Second Ohio?"
7504Want us to run so''s you can have a good excuse for taking a shot at us with that gun?"
7504Was he talking with the doctor?"
7504Were they to be set free again, or would they be taken to Chattanooga?
7504What are you running a powder train for?
7504What bridges?"
7504What did he think?
7504What good was security if it meant starvation?
7504What happened to you?
7504What is it?"
7504What was Bert doing?
7504What was she going to do, now that she had trapped him?
7504What was this mysterious plan that was ending so badly?
7504What would they think if they were told that he was a hundred miles behind the Confederate picket lines?
7504What''s that?"
7504What''s the matter with you?"
7504What''s your name?"
7504When I went into the Captain''s room, he looked at me and said,''Andrews?''
7504When Uncle read that, he... he....""What did he do?"
7504When did you see mother and father last?"
7504When was it you captured the train-- Friday or Saturday?"
7504Where did you find it?"
7504Where is the Widow Fry''s?"
7504Where''re mine?
7504Where''s the other?"
7504Where?"
7504Who are you going to give the powder to?
7504Who are you?"
7504Whose bridges?
7504Why was she befriending him?
7504Will you come this way, sir?"
7504Will you forgive me?"
7504Will you have me in your squad?"
7504Will you really?"
7504Will you take it?
7504Without knowing any more about it than that?"
7504Wo n''t we-- Star?
7504Wonder what happened to them?"
7504Would he be allowed to take Bert''s place?
7504Would he be washed up on the same side of the river from which he had just escaped?
7504Would it be better to jump overboard and swim, letting the boat drift wherever it pleased her?
7504Would n''t a war on an ark be a strange thing?
7504Would she realize, when the news of the raid swept over the country, that he had taken part in it?
7504You know I can do it, do n''t you, Bert?"
7504You know what it might mean if you got caught?"
7504You understand?"
7504You would n''t rather have me wait until tomorrow while you think it over?"
7504You''re just about ready to drop, are n''t you?"
7504You''re pretty young, ai n''t you?"
7504Your name is Brown, is n''t it?"
7504prisoners?"
32993A quaint name, is it not? 32993 A rebel?"
32993A strong hand? 32993 A what?"
32993After hoodwinking you the way she has, do you believe it? 32993 Am I not to wear my hoops, mother?"
32993And are n''t you going to forgive your poor''Cherie''? 32993 And are these Federals too?"
32993And do n''t you remember his name?
32993And he condemns you to death?
32993And the horse?
32993And this girl is his niece, and she brings papers down here to Archer? 32993 And what do these Yankees care for me?
32993And what will you do?
32993And who led them, pray?
32993And you are Aunt Clarisse?
32993And you are the girl who professed such devotion to the cause of your country? 32993 And you hold fairs to tempt the shekels from the unwary, eh?"
32993And you knew nothing whatever of your Uncle Ben?
32993And you set up your feeble judgment against them?
32993Another attempt to evade the Confiscation Act, eh? 32993 Are n''t we going, dear uncle?"
32993Are n''t you coming with us, mother?
32993Are n''t you the little girl who likes puns?
32993Are they true?
32993Are they?
32993Are you Tennessee? 32993 Are you cold, Jeanne?"
32993Are you going to hand out that money?
32993Are you going too, Snowball?
32993Are you hurt?
32993Are you ready, Jeanne?
32993Are you really going to take me home?
32993Are you sure the fellow was telling the truth?
32993Are you sure? 32993 Are you the girl who has been caught bringing contraband letters into the city?
32993Are you well, Dick?
32993Are you?
32993Are you?
32993Beautiful weather we''re having, are n''t we? 32993 Bob, is that the way you treat a guest?
32993Bob,exclaimed Jeanne presently,"do you know that I have not heard the guard patrol our tent for a long time?"
32993Bob,said Jeanne suddenly,"ca n''t we do something to help your brother?"
32993Bob,whispered Jeanne in great agitation,"do you see that young fellow just beyond Frank?
32993But a boat could get through, could it not?
32993But do you know, General, that the queer part of it is that he has given it all to me?
32993But have you no friends?
32993But how about the socks and handkerchiefs? 32993 But how could I consent to do what I have?"
32993But if you could help me?
32993But is n''t there some other way?
32993But of what use is it? 32993 But what makes your uncle let her act so?"
32993But what was Dick doing here?
32993But where did you get them?
32993But who can withstand us? 32993 But who made the articles?"
32993But why should General Butler wish to take your property from you?
32993But why, Cherie?
32993But why?
32993But why?
32993But you do forgive her, do n''t you, Dick? 32993 But you understand that there is danger, child?
32993But, mother, what could happen? 32993 By the way,"he said,"was n''t it Mr. Vance who bought Snowball?"
32993Ca n''t yer answer a civil question?
32993Can you not open the doors in some way?
32993Come, come, General,said Farragut laying a kindly hand on the girl''s bowed head,"you are too severe, are n''t you?"
32993Could I if I were a boy?
32993Could I not telegraph to my father that we are coming? 32993 Could n''t you send me home?"
32993Could you give us some breakfast, sir?
32993Could you tell me about it, father? 32993 Dad, what will we do if they shell the city?"
32993Dick has to take a great many chances, and why should not I risk a little for my country? 32993 Dick, I have spoken to you of my own son, have I not?"
32993Dick, is it you?
32993Dick,cried Jeanne in horrified tones,"you would not wear that uniform for a minute, would you?"
32993Dick,she whispered, detaining him as the others entered the cave,"you do n''t harbor any bitterness toward me, do you?"
32993Did I not tell you? 32993 Did he say that?"
32993Did n''t you say something about an uncle, Admiral?
32993Did you hurt yourself?
32993Did you say Benjamin Vance?
32993Did you wish to see Jeanne?
32993Do n''t you think that it will be ours soon, father?
32993Do n''t you think that you are rather inquisitive?
32993Do they miss me, I wonder?
32993Do you girls know that it is breakfast time?
32993Do you know John Archer, child?
32993Do you mind telling me why you came down here?
32993Do you not know that it will be a difficult matter to do so? 32993 Do you sing, Bob?"
32993Do you think so?
32993Do you think that we shall ever see them again?
32993Do you want to know why, my dear? 32993 Do you?"
32993Do you?
32993Does she ever go?
32993Does the whole Federal army happen to be related to you two girls? 32993 Does yer want anyting now, Massa Dick?"
32993Does yer want me ter do anything now, little missy?
32993Does your back hurt much?
32993Done yer know me, sah?
32993Father, does n''t Uncle Ben live in New Orleans?
32993Foh de land sake, lill''missy, what you doin''heah?
32993For the soldiers, eh? 32993 Forager?"
32993Friends? 32993 General Wallace?"
32993General, do you know a man by the name of Archer?
32993General, what in the world do you mean?
32993Going? 32993 Has the General come in yet?"
32993Have n''t yer got some money too?
32993Have the drums beaten the call? 32993 Have you been attending to Master Dick, Snowball?"
32993Have you no heart, no feeling, that you would take advantage of his weakness?
32993He----"Why, what does this mean?
32993How are you this morning, Jeanne?
32993How came you here?
32993How came you within our lines?
32993How can I see him?
32993How can the sun shine after all that has happened?
32993How could he do such a thing? 32993 How could we be other than brave, when our ancestors fought in the Revolution?
32993How dare you?
32993How did you live?
32993How do you come to be here in the woods at this time of night?
32993How do you live away from your regiment, Bob?
32993How in the world did you get here? 32993 How kum yer ter know dat?"
32993How long has she been gone, Tenny?
32993How many handkerchiefs are there, Jeanne?
32993How would you like this for a home?
32993Huh brudder? 32993 I am not doing wrong, am I, Cherie?"
32993I thought you were a soldier, Bob? 32993 I to take it?
32993I will be willing to acknowledge it then, wo n''t you, Clarisse?
32993I wonder if it is wrong to like them? 32993 I wonder what the reason is?"
32993I wonder-- where is Snowball?''
32993If you are Mr. John Archer?
32993Is Colonel Peyton your father?
32993Is he with you?
32993Is it about my father?
32993Is it far to the river, Dick?
32993Is it far, Feliciane?
32993Is it not grand, little one? 32993 Is it thus you repay my kindness?
32993Is it too much for you, my little girl?
32993Is it true?
32993Is my uncle a rebel?
32993Is n''t he kind?
32993Is n''t it fine the way we are giving it to them, Jeanne? 32993 Is n''t it fine?
32993Is n''t it strange that you should have remembered it just at that time?
32993Is n''t it? 32993 Is that better?"
32993Is the errand important, father?
32993Is this the way to entertain a guest, my child? 32993 Is this the young lady who is to be our guest down the river?"
32993Is yer cryin'', lill''missy?
32993Is you''wake, honey?
32993Is your brother in the army, my dear?
32993It is nothing against the government, is it?
32993It takes a strong hand to rule the city, does it not?
32993It''s a great river, is n''t it?
32993Jeanne, are you hurt? 32993 Jeanne, is it truly Dick?
32993Jeanne,came the amazed voice of the lad,"how in the name of all that''s wonderful, did you come here?"
32993Jeanne,came the reply, in weak tones,"are you safe?
32993Jeanne,said Bob,"do you hear that?
32993Jeanne? 32993 John Archer?"
32993Johnson,said Bob coaxingly,"have n''t I always been good to you?"
32993Kentucky and Tennessee both taken from us when we fought so hard to get them? 32993 Little one, you will not carry it while here, will you?
32993Me?
32993Merciful goodness, has it come to this? 32993 Mercy, Jeanne, where did you learn so much about things?"
32993Missy,she said as soon as the girl reached her side,"hab yer seen yer brudder lately?"
32993Mr. Huntsworth,cried Jeanne, in astonishment,"how did you come here?"
32993Mrs. Butler,said the little girl suddenly after she and the lady had finished their task and the papers lay before them,"do you know John Archer?"
32993Mus''you go, lill''missy?
32993Must I go there?
32993My boy,she cried feebly,"you did like me, did n''t you?"
32993My dear boy, has the little one been speaking of our differences? 32993 My dear child, did you see the point?"
32993My uncle a rebel? 32993 Necessary, eh?"
32993No; how was it?
32993No? 32993 Now how did you come to be sent down here?"
32993Now, child, what are you going to do?
32993Now, men,said the Captain seriously, still retaining Jeanne''s hand,"you fully realize what you are doing, do you?
32993Now, missy, what could Tenny do? 32993 Oh, Bob, do you think that I could go to my side?"
32993Oh, Feliciane, are n''t we carrying food and medicine to her poor wounded brother, Auguste?
32993Oh, Jeanne, will your mother let you? 32993 Oh, Snowball, what can I do?
32993Oh, could you tell me where I could get something to eat and a place to sleep? 32993 Oh, what does he mean, Admiral?
32993Oh, what have I done? 32993 Oh, what is it?"
32993One is a soldier, the other a-- what shall I call you, Jeanne? 32993 Orderly, will you send word to the La Chaise manor that I would like Mr. Vance to come here?"
32993Ought you not to send him some word?
32993Perhaps we may soon, who knows?
32993Pretty thankful to be on earth, are n''t you? 32993 Rather young for a messenger, is n''t she?"
32993Shall I show him up?
32993Shorely you ai n''t gwine ter leab without tellin''ole Tenny good- bye, is yer?
32993Snowball, are you here?
32993Snowball,said the girl suddenly,"was your mother named Tennessee?
32993So kind that you would do one little thing for''Cherie''?
32993So well that we can have our little talk again? 32993 So you got Jeanne and her brother?
32993So?
32993Surely you did not permit the Yankees to take them?
32993That fellow was annoying you terribly, was he not?
32993That was why you started when you heard my name, was it not?
32993That will be most as good as if I could fight myself, wo n''t it?
32993The oath?
32993The sight of me? 32993 Then if he cares why does he condemn his son to death?"
32993Then is n''t it rather queer for your father to choose such a time as this for you to pay him a visit?
32993Then it is nothing against the government?
32993Then,said Farragut gravely,"why did you permit him to have those papers?"
32993There were no documents of any kind? 32993 They are not, are they?"
32993This girl?
32993To me?
32993To me?
32993To me?
32993Toward you, Jeanne? 32993 Uncle Ben here?"
32993Until morning?
32993Vance? 32993 Verily, Butler hath his hands full,"quoth the Admiral, and then he added:"You wished to find your uncle, did you not?"
32993Vicksburg then is still untaken?
32993Was it not for that purpose that you showed me the hiding- place yesterday? 32993 Was n''t it queer that they should come right into camp?"
32993We got by all right, lill''missy, did n''t we?
32993Well, my little ladies, what have we here?
32993Well, what do you think of the South?
32993Well, what is it?
32993Well, you can hardly expect them to sing any other, can you?
32993Were you carrying anything beyond the lines?
32993Whar yer goin''? 32993 Whar you bin dat you ai n''t nebber seed no''nolias befo''?"
32993What Vance?
32993What are all those people running down there for?
32993What are you doing here, Jeanne Vance?
32993What are you doing here? 32993 What are you doing here?
32993What are you going to do with him?
32993What are you going to do?
32993What are you going to do?
32993What are you two plotting?
32993What are you?
32993What business has a Union soldier in this part of the country?
32993What can I do, Cherie?
32993What can have happened? 32993 What can we do, Snowball?"
32993What can we do? 32993 What could happen?"
32993What did you say, sir?
32993What do you mean by frightening this girl?
32993What do you mean by whipping them? 32993 What do you mean?
32993What do you mean?
32993What do you mean?
32993What do you mean?
32993What do you think we would better do, Clarisse?
32993What does this mean, boys?
32993What else could we do? 32993 What has become of the letters?"
32993What has happened?
32993What is it, Johnson?
32993What is it?
32993What is it?
32993What is it?
32993What is it?

32993What is it?
32993What is the disturbance?
32993What is the matter?
32993What is your father''s name?
32993What made you think that we were going to Dick''s?
32993What makes you so positive, Dick?
32993What makes you so thoughtful, Jeanne?
32993What makes you think dat, chile? 32993 What shall I do?"
32993What was in the basket that you carried over?
32993What were you doing?
32993What will your father say if I do not bring you safely through this?
32993What would mother say if she could see him?
32993What would mother say?
32993What would your wife think of your refusing me anything?
32993What''s yer got in yer basket?
32993What, Cherie?
32993When can we go home, Dick?
32993When do I start, father?
32993When people brave death together it always makes them feel a sort of kinship, do n''t you think? 32993 When shall we begin?"
32993Where are you hurt?
32993Where could we go?
32993Where did you get it?
32993Where do they all come from?
32993Where do they live?
32993Where is Snowball?
32993Where is she now, Tenny? 32993 Where is your home?"
32993Where will we have it, Jeanne?
32993Where would the boy have to go?
32993Which side is your brother on?
32993Which way did the shot come?
32993Whipping them?
32993Who are you that you should interfere with my bidding? 32993 Who goes there?"
32993Who is Dick?
32993Who looked after you when you were wounded, and cooked for you, and wrote your letters to your wife?
32993Who told you that I was going North, you black rascal?
32993Whom did you say?
32993Whom did you see?
32993Why ca n''t I''member? 32993 Why ca n''t the''Little Yank''give us a song?"
32993Why could n''t I go down to see him, and carry these papers hidden about me? 32993 Why could not Feliciane go alone?"
32993Why did n''t Captain Leathers buy her too?
32993Why did n''t you say so?
32993Why did you do it? 32993 Why did you tell me such a thing?"
32993Why did you think so?
32993Why do you loiter when I tell you to go?
32993Why does he do it, Bob?
32993Why does not my father write for me?
32993Why have you not returned to your father?
32993Why should I care for it? 32993 Why should I take the oath, General Butler?
32993Why should you be so anxious to see your uncle? 32993 Why should you care?"
32993Why should you want to know where I am going?
32993Why so triste, my love?
32993Why, my little heroine, what does this mean?
32993Why, what in the world will I do with you all?
32993Why?
32993Why?
32993Will that terrible vessel come after us?
32993Will this be enough?
32993Will we have to be out in this rain all that time?
32993Will you tell me why, my child?
32993Will you, Dick?
32993Will you, Snowball?
32993Will you?
32993Will you?
32993Will your father care if I talk to you, Bob?
32993Would it be wrong, Cherie?
32993Would it not be possible,she wondered,"for me to join them?
32993Would n''t I?
32993Would n''t it be dreadful for me to laugh and play and be glad all day when the country is in peril? 32993 Would you feel very badly if I sent you back to your uncle''s?"
32993Wrong to carry food to a wounded soldier? 32993 Wus dat yer par?"
32993Yes, Jeanne; why?
32993Yes; that is in your purse, which is in the satchel, is it not?
32993Yes; why?
32993Yes; will you come in and see my boy this morning, Adele? 32993 You are Uncle Ben, are n''t you?"
32993You are lost?
32993You are not weary now, are you?
32993You did?
32993You feel much better, do you not, my boy?
32993You have n''t caught Dick, have you?
32993You have not? 32993 You refuse to obey me?"
32993You refuse?
32993You saw my father and my mother? 32993 You say the country is overrun with soldiers, and where is there a place safer than Vicksburg?
32993You surely do not mean that you are an emissary of the government?
32993You think a great deal of Dick, do n''t you?
32993You will do this? 32993 You wish to go to New Orleans?"
32993You wished to see me?
32993You would have said yesterday that he loved you better, would n''t you? 32993 You?"
32993Your brother is in the Union army?
32993''Specks you is powerful hungry, ai n''t yer?
32993''Twuzn''t Massa Benson?
32993A blockade runner or what?"
32993A whisper''d"good- night"while they weep?''"
32993After all what has he done but what is just?
32993Ah, Johnson,"as his Orderly made his appearance,"did you get them?"
32993Ai n''t yer got nobody with yer?"
32993Am I forgiven for the way I treated you then?"
32993Am I not capable of administering the affairs of my own household?
32993Am I not, dad?"
32993And did they call her Tenny for short?"
32993And now you break down?"
32993And this is your brother?
32993And you are the Colonel Peyton who bought her?"
32993And you call yourself a Yankee?
32993And you did not know the reason?"
32993Anything for your uncle?"
32993Are n''t they beautiful?"
32993Are n''t you a long way from home?"
32993Are n''t you mistaken?
32993Are they not both Federals?"
32993Are we not kind?
32993Are you Dick''s child?"
32993Are you going to turn against her because of a little whipping?
32993Are you ready to die, little girl?"
32993Are you sick?"
32993Are you strong enough to bear all that you will hear and still retain that fidelity unimpaired?"
32993Are you suffering much pain?"
32993Are you tired?"
32993Are you too tired to make it to- night, Feliciane?"
32993As she says, why should harm come to a girl?
32993Besides did I not give it up when you asked me?"
32993Besides, let me but have him a short time longer and who knows but that a full fledged Confederate may be the result?
32993But have you no mother?"
32993But how kum you heah?
32993But it does look rather ghost- like, does n''t it, with all that moss hanging from the trees?"
32993But tell me, Jeanne, how in the world did you come down here in this benighted country?
32993But was it not for this very thing that she had come to New Orleans?
32993But where am I?
32993But wo n''t you go?
32993But you have heard from him?"
32993But you will be quiet, Dick, wo n''t you?
32993But, Jeanne, what if your brother had thought that we were right and had gone to our side?
32993CHAPTER XXI A SURPRISE AND AN ESCAPE"Your father?"
32993CHAPTER XXVII A PRISONER OF WAR"But what can we do, Snowball?"
32993Ca n''t we talk, or walk, or do something?"
32993Ca n''t yer sleep?"
32993Ca n''t you buy her, missy?
32993Ca n''t you let your tales of me wait until he is strong enough to bear them?"
32993Can you be ready to go by that time?"
32993Can you do this?"
32993Can you remember everything that I have said?"
32993Child, why do you treat such parents so?
32993Dick is well, is he?
32993Did Bob tell you how she came to be with me?"
32993Did anything happen?"
32993Did he do that?
32993Did he give his name?"
32993Did n''t those people do anything for you?"
32993Did not another Jeanne not much older than I lead the Dauphin of France to a crown?
32993Did she escape?"
32993Did you not notice an Orderly go out after him?"
32993Did you see how he turned from you to me?
32993Did you think we would turn you out because you were not a rebel?
32993Did you?"
32993Do n''t we, Jeanne?"
32993Do n''t you think we ought to do just the very best we can without them?"
32993Do you hear often from your uncle?"
32993Do you know him?"
32993Do you know that we will have to see General Wallace to obtain a permit to go into the enemy''s country?"
32993Do you know the girl''s father?
32993Do you mean for me to live in the fields like the cows and the horses?"
32993Do you see the point, daughter?"
32993Do you think dad will like that?"
32993Do you think it can be true?"
32993Do you think that I would carry this,"and she drew the flag from the bosom of her dress,"if I were not for the Union?
32993Do you think you can manage it?"
32993Do you think you have any Yankees that are as brave as our people?"
32993Do you understand?"
32993Do you, Jeanne?"
32993Do you?"
32993Done yer see de gem''man''s hoss a stan''ing dere?
32993Even if I were to fall into the hands of the Confederates what could they do to me?
32993For some time the man did not pay any attention to her, then he turned abruptly and said:"Do you want that window down?"
32993Going where?"
32993Have I not the right to do with my own slave as I wish?
32993Have I?"
32993Have n''t I heard you and father many a time relate what great things our ancestors did in the Revolution?
32993Have you a pencil and paper?"
32993Have you anything for us?
32993Have you ever been on a like expedition?"
32993Have you ever seen the Mississippi before?"
32993Have you finished staring at me?"
32993Have you no word for her?"
32993Have you not your flag?
32993Have you really done all those things?"
32993Have you visited him often?"
32993Have you written to him?"
32993He said''Commodore''did n''t he, Tenny?"
32993Here, boy,"to a porter,"do n''t you see that we are waiting to be shown to the dining- room?"
32993How could any one hear that the Capital is menaced and not care?
32993How did it happen?"
32993How did they look?
32993How did you like that?"
32993How do you do, Eddie?"
32993How do you feel, brother?
32993How is our side doing, I wonder?
32993How many have you in the family?"
32993How much are those handkerchiefs?"
32993How much do you suppose the Colonel would want for her?"
32993How was it that you said she came from Vicksburg?"
32993How would you like to live here?"
32993How''d she look, missy?"
32993I fear----""What?"
32993I may use your basket, may I not?
32993I suffer, but of what avail is it?
32993I think you can understand why it is that I am so suspicious of every one, do you not, child?
32993I want----""Men, why do you dally here with your prisoner?"
32993If you are Mr. John Archer?"
32993Indeed, I must get to New Orleans, and there is no other way, is there?"
32993Is Bob here?"
32993Is he not kind?"
32993Is it anything of importance?"
32993Is it not hard, little one, to think of being in the midst of plenty while my only brother is destitute?"
32993Is it not so?"
32993Is n''t it musical?"
32993Is n''t it queer, Admiral, I have never seen my uncle?"
32993Is she not your sister?
32993Is that all ye''ve got in there?"
32993It is not death I fear, but----""But what?"
32993It seemed like a great many when we took them to make, but what do they amount to after all?"
32993It wuzn''t stylish nohow, but would you b''lebe me, chile?
32993Louder and louder came the melody to her ears until presently she was able to distinguish the words:"''Do they miss me at home, Do they miss me?
32993May I ask that they be permitted to enter?"
32993Meantime, may I ask that you refrain from any intercourse whatever with my daughter?
32993Miss Bob, where are you?"
32993My sweet child, is this your brother?
32993Not salt water, Snowball?"
32993Now do you think I should go to him or to Uncle Ben first?
32993Now the question is, what will you do?
32993Now, child, what else did you bring?
32993Oh, dad, what does it mean?"
32993Oh, how could he?"
32993Orderly, can you get some one to assist me in lifting my nephew to the carriage?"
32993Paper, sir?
32993Paper?"
32993Restful, is n''t it?"
32993Richard Vance?"
32993S''pose I did fin''her, what''s I gwine ter do''bout it?
32993Say, Jeanne, do n''t you wish we had some of mother''s doughnuts?"
32993Shall we give up making them?"
32993She is headstrong and self- willed, but what would you?
32993So, my little one, it is very necessary for you to get to New Orleans?
32993Sometimes I think that he is afraid of her, and yet why should a great big man be afraid of a slender woman?"
32993Surely you are not going to let your brother die without trying to save him?"
32993Tell me, what is your name?"
32993That is French, is n''t it?
32993The trains are still running, are n''t they?"
32993These people are kind and good, but would it not be much better for me to be with those of my own side?
32993They can not think what has happened to you?"
32993Think you that I would let you stay to enjoy our property when we were driven from the city?
32993Think you that such a man would embrace our cause if he did not believe himself right?"
32993To what good fortune am I indebted for such a favor?"
32993Unhappy man,"he continued, turning to the prisoner,"what have you to say for yourself?"
32993Was the information that you sent concealed in my basket?"
32993Was this all?
32993Was this the land of the free and the home of the brave?
32993Were they well?
32993Were you asleep?"
32993Were you not afraid, little girl?"
32993Whar you been dat you did n''t know dat?
32993Whar you been?"
32993Whar you bin, mammy?"
32993What brudder?
32993What can be the matter?"
32993What can we do?"
32993What did the''Beast''say when he found that a Yankee girl was working against him?
32993What do you mean?"
32993What do you say?"
32993What do you see?"
32993What does he mean?"
32993What has happened?
32993What have I done?"
32993What if some harm should come to you?"
32993What is his name?"
32993What is in the papers?"
32993What is your father?"
32993What is your name?"
32993What my ole mammy say?"
32993What shall be done, General?
32993What shall it be?"
32993What shall you do now?"
32993What was danger, disease or life itself, if she could be of service in ever so small a way?
32993What was the name of your uncle?"
32993What would her father say if she did not fulfil her trust?
32993What would you do then?"
32993What you talkin''''bout?"
32993What''d yer kum fer ef yer did n''t want ter holpe dem?"
32993When did you leave them?
32993When do you wish me to go?"
32993When we do we''ll make up, wo n''t we?"
32993When you do, will you come to me and be friends?"
32993Where are you, Dick?"
32993Where do you go from here?"
32993Where have you concealed the papers?"
32993Where is he?
32993Where is she?"
32993Who does?"
32993Who got up the Constitution?
32993Who is it, Jeanne?"
32993Who is with you?"
32993Who is yer talkin''to, honey?
32993Who put you up to this?"
32993Who sent you here?"
32993Who will go with me?"
32993Who would harm a girl like me?"
32993Who wrote the Declaration of Independence?
32993Why are you here in place of being at home?
32993Why did n''t I think to ask him?
32993Why did n''t you call her''Nolia,''if you wished to shorten the name?"
32993Why did you not stay with''Beast''Butler since you agree so well?
32993Why did you not tell me?
32993Why did you return if you were not of our way of thinking?
32993Why do I fear?
32993Why do you hesitate?
32993Why do you stand here, men?"
32993Why done yer''zert yersef?
32993Why have you remained here so long?"
32993Why how could I do it?"
32993Why not let the subject drop when we can not agree?"
32993Why should I tell you a falsehood?"
32993Why should she, a mere child, presume to doubt a man whom the General and even her own father trusted?
32993Why should you interest yourselves in such things?
32993Why should you think so, child?"
32993Why then do you want to visit your uncle-- if you are loyal-- when he is such a rebel?"
32993Why throw away such advantages for the sake of a mere notion?
32993Why, why did you tell me such awful things of her, Jeanne?
32993Why?"
32993Why?"
32993Why?"
32993Will the war last much longer, Dick?"
32993Will yer, lill''missy?"
32993Will you give it to him?"
32993Will you go, my pet?"
32993Will you help me get something for her to eat?"
32993Will you please go away?"
32993Will you please me, Jeanne?
32993Will you remember?"
32993Will you see to her?
32993Will you stay in New Orleans long?"
32993Will you?"
32993With no friends near how could she, a mere girl, hope to reach her own people surrounded as she would be on all sides by rebels?
32993Wo n''t you help me?"
32993Would I have you to do wrong?"
32993Would n''t you be willing to give your life for it, mother?"
32993Would you mind going with me to the cabin while I go to bed?
32993You are sure that you wo n''t stay here?"
32993You do n''t dislike me any more, do you, Colonel Peyton?
32993You do n''t mind my telling you this, little girl, do you?"
32993You know the conditions under which we are entered, do you not?"
32993You remember where I carried the quinine, sir?"
32993You say that they are in your petticoat, my child?"
32993You will go there, wo n''t you?"
32993You will not get lost, will you?"
32993You wo n''t be afraid to stay out all night, will you?
32993You wo n''t care if Bob and I are friends, will you?"
32993You wo n''t get sick, will you?"
32993You wo n''t turn me away, will you, just because I am a Yankee?"
32993You wuzn''t whipped, wuz yer?"
32993You''re better now, are n''t you?"
32993You, who carried the flag upon your person, and kissed it to show your patriotism?
32993Your uncle has a great deal of property, has he not?"
32993are you asleep?"
32993do I say that right?"
32993have we reached Commodore Farragut?
32993that touched you, did it?"
32993what can one expect of Yankees?"
32993what care you?
32993what does it mean?"
32993what''s freedum ter me?
32993who goes there?"
32993why did you come back?"
32993you want the truth then?"
10062''Come down to Dixie to marry niggers, have ye?'' 10062 ''Did you''ns leave a lock of your hair with old Mas''r Lincoln?''
10062''Is President Davis here?'' 10062 ''What part of the field are you from?''
10062A deserter?
10062A ton of lead?
10062Ah ha, Jack; Frederick''s on the other side, eh?
10062Ah, Vincent, ca n''t you see that such a people as ours may be checked, beaten even, but they will never give up the Union? 10062 Ah, perhaps you can convince him that his best course is open confession?"
10062Ah, yes; is this the man?
10062All have the small- pox?
10062An''why would n''t I, me bye? 10062 And Jack is n''t to have a commission?"
10062And Miss Kate, Mr. Boone, where is she?
10062And Olympia believes that Jack is alive?
10062And are there no other marks than this plain board?
10062And are these colored people all slaves?
10062And are they treated well? 10062 And does Mrs. Sprague know all this?"
10062And get myself in the guard- house for my trouble? 10062 And how came you off here?
10062And so ye want to be solgers, me foine b''yes? 10062 And so you call that a joke?"
10062And the negroes-- how many have you?
10062And the next?
10062And those men that brought you here-- were they Yankees, too?
10062And who cares if he does think he is shut out, I should like to know? 10062 And who may you be, if I am permitted to ask a question?"
10062And yet we want to fly from it?
10062And you are now quite sure we are not?
10062And young''Perley''?
10062And, if it should come, what would you answer to my question?
10062And-- and killed him?
10062Another mother?
10062Any cavalry at the house?
10062Are you hurt, Rosa? 10062 Are you quite sure, Mr.--Mr. Jones that my father told you that?"
10062Are you sure, sergeant, that is the same man that was in the woods to the right there, five minutes ago?
10062Are you-- is Mr. Jones, who came from the Georgetown Hospital, in your case?
10062Be the dark eyes of Pharaoh''s daughter there''s a field beyant-- yes, and a shebeen; d''ye see that?
10062Blackburn''s Ford?
10062But do you see the end? 10062 But how''ll we manage at the junction?
10062But is it certain that Davis is there?
10062But is n''t the inequality of the Southern character due to their strange lack of education? 10062 But what am I to do?
10062But what''s going to become of us?
10062But where are we to get this splendor now, Jack?
10062But who buys them about here? 10062 But who-- who-- is the miscreant that degrades his cause by such traffic?"
10062But why should papa tell you they were safe, when-- when our hearts have been tortured? 10062 But you know, Polly, that-- I-- I, too, must be of the party?
10062But you love me, then, Olympia?
10062But you will go with us, will you not?
10062But, my girl has n''t got that kind of mind; it is all sweetness and wit and gayety and loveliness and-- and--"Your girl? 10062 By''they''do you mean Perley and Sprague?"
10062Can you find the boat?
10062Can you lead us near the block- house?
10062Can you take me there now?
10062Carcassonne-- what''s that?
10062Come, come, fellows, what sort of soldiering do you call this? 10062 Comedy, Mrs. Gannat?
10062Dick, my boy, do you think you are equal to a vigil? 10062 Did Jones share your grateful sentiment?"
10062Did Mr. Davis join in the battle?
10062Did you call some one, Miss Atterbury?
10062Did you discuss the whole affair with him?
10062Did you get to him without trouble?
10062Did you see the patient?
10062Do n''t you? 10062 Do they know at home what you have done?"
10062Do you know a Mr. Atterbury in-- in your army?
10062Do you know what they think at home? 10062 Do you mean that women approach the trials of life less thinkingly and act less rationally than men?"
10062Do you remember the scene in Shakespeare where Bolingbroke and Gaunt pluck the roses?
10062Do you see those streamers of loveliness waving welcome to you, fair damsel-- Nature knows its kind?
10062Do you think you could find out for me where Mr. Jones is?
10062Do you want to be free? 10062 Does Wesley feel this-- this embarrassment?"
10062Does he approve your search?
10062Does your father know it?
10062Does your mamma know you''re out alone?
10062Eh-- who is it? 10062 Expose it?
10062Fort Monroe?
10062Friends here? 10062 General Bacchus?
10062General Hunter?
10062Guard, have you no water handy?
10062Has Lieutenant Hawkins been here within an hour, sentry?
10062Has Wesley been with the negroes again?
10062Have they swords?
10062Have what, Barney, me b''y?
10062Have you a match?
10062Have you a wife-- are these your children?
10062Have you any food? 10062 Have you been among the darkys?"
10062Have you read it?
10062Have you seen the gentleman that brought him on from Washington lately?
10062He had been wounded?
10062Honor? 10062 How can I say what a mother should say?"
10062How d''ye do, Mr. Boone? 10062 How dare you, sir?"
10062How do you mean?
10062How do you prove that?
10062How in Heaven''s name did you get here?
10062How many men are you going to take to the house?
10062How many men, about?
10062How much did you pick up?
10062How''s that?
10062How?
10062How?
10062How?
10062I hope logic is n''t a heresy in your new Confederacy, as religion was in the French Constitution of''93?
10062I say yes, with all my heart, but how can it be done? 10062 I say, North Cal''ina, you''n''s goin''straight through to Yankee land?"
10062I should like to know what right you have to order what I shall or shall not do?
10062I suppose you know, Polly, that Vincent is going home to join the rebels?
10062I wonder if he is n''t one of my company from Fort Lee? 10062 I wonder if the President just stands and throws the stars down from that balcony?"
10062I wonder who this can be?
10062If one flag should cover us-- my flag-- would you-- would you--?
10062Infinitely worse-- Why, what was that?
10062Ingrate!--plunge us into the chilly blasts of the North, in return for our glorious Southern sun? 10062 Is he?"
10062Is it too late to warn General Franklin?
10062Is it true, Mr. President, that a society in the North has offered a million dollars for your capture-- abduction? 10062 Is it, indeed?
10062Is n''t it lovely? 10062 Is that a rebel or one of our fellows?"
10062Is that an implication that I have Chinese feet?
10062Is the battle over?
10062It depends a good deal, does it not, whether the elders are lovers?
10062Jack, dear, if a man lived on roses would the bees feed on him? 10062 Jack?
10062Jailer, what shall I come to the door for?
10062John Sprague is missing?
10062John,Mistress Sprague reproves mildly;"how can you?
10062Jones, is it you?
10062Lieutenant?
10062Lincoln?
10062Longstreet?
10062Look yere, Ben, do you see that road off there to the right?
10062Major Atterbury? 10062 May I see them?"
10062May I? 10062 Mrs. Lincoln is in some sort kin to Mrs. Davis, is n''t she?"
10062Much of your army here?
10062Must I go alone, massa?
10062My fists, is it? 10062 No-- when?"
10062No; may I sit down, please? 10062 Not his friends?"
10062Not in love, Barney?
10062Nothing has been heard of the boys since when?
10062Now that you are among the friends of your youth, I will leave you; who knows whether I shall see you again?
10062Now you believe me no heart and badness?
10062O Jack, Jack, why did you put this hard task upon me? 10062 O captain, dear, why did n''t ye tell me there were ladies here?
10062Oh, ever so different, from this-- this saucy fellow-- modest, timid, shy; needing ever so much encouragement to-- to--"Claim their due?
10062Oh, no, I''m not mistaken-- General Bacchus has been selected to deal out the_ esprit de corps!_"_ L''esprit de corps_? 10062 Oh, they come to make requisition on General Bacchus; he''s the commissary- general of the brigadiers-- don''t you know?"
10062Oh, was that all?
10062Oh, what has happened? 10062 Oh, why did n''t he tell me this at the time?
10062Oh, why was n''t I there? 10062 On what?"
10062On what?
10062Pardon, is it, me dear? 10062 Pray, let me see the permit, madam?"
10062Read that? 10062 Send us a lock o''Lincoln''s hair to poison blind adders, will you?"
10062Should you know him again if you saw him?
10062Slaves?
10062Still plotting?
10062Suppose you read me something? 10062 Surely you heard that a party had escaped from Libby and made their way to Fort Monroe?"
10062Suspicion? 10062 That''s it; could you believe that it would make such a change?
10062That''s why you''ve come to console the afflicted?
10062The army, you mean?
10062The boys?
10062The carriage is here, papa; wo n''t you come home with me?
10062The garden of the gods?
10062Then why do you keep them here?
10062There, do you see?
10062They sleep at this end of the house?
10062Us? 10062 Was there ever an Eden more perfect than this delicious place?"
10062Well, have n''t I won the guinea, now? 10062 Well, if that is the sum of your college training, it is a good thing the war came--""What about the war?
10062Well?
10062Well?
10062Well?
10062What are you doin''away from yer mammy? 10062 What are you doing here, Tarpey?
10062What are your plans?
10062What better do we need? 10062 What can it be?"
10062What dat? 10062 What did they run across the ford for, then?"
10062What did you fancy them?
10062What do you mean to blame? 10062 What do you mean, Bob?"
10062What do you propose doing?
10062What does that mean?
10062What does this mean; why have you got all these traps packed? 10062 What has been done with him?"
10062What have you found out, you young conspirator?
10062What if I should tell you to come home with me?
10062What is it, Richard; have I wounded you? 10062 What is it, old fellow?"
10062What is it; are you hurt?
10062What is the charge against me?
10062What is there to eat? 10062 What is this very serious discussion, my children?"
10062What on earth are they all doing here?
10062What question did I evade? 10062 What regiment are you, sergeant?"
10062What shall it be?
10062What shall we do? 10062 What would Frederick the Great or Napoleon do?"
10062What would you wish-- if it were under your feet, with its slaves at your command?
10062What''s your name and company?
10062What, John, you''ve not been in a broil-- fighting?
10062What?
10062When was that?
10062When, does the boss get out?
10062Where are the matches?
10062Where are they?
10062Where are they?
10062Where can we hide? 10062 Where does he go at night?"
10062Where does she think he is?
10062Where does that come from?
10062Where is Jack?
10062Where is it?
10062Where shall it be?
10062Where you bound for?
10062Where-- how in the name of all that''s sacred did you get here?
10062Wherein does the Montgomery Constitution differ from the old one?
10062Whereto?
10062Which would be the better plan?
10062Who came with me?
10062Who gave you-- who told you that?
10062Who is here-- who is come?
10062Who were they-- what were they planning? 10062 Who would think that we are within a half- mile of a completely appointed country house?
10062Who''s in command here?
10062Who-- who-- did-- who asked for his removal?
10062Why am I dishonored? 10062 Why do you say''so- called''?
10062Why not? 10062 Why should you go?"
10062Why will you put a fellow in a ridiculous light? 10062 Why, where on earth do you come from?
10062Will you, though? 10062 Would n''t it be the best thing to warn Vincent?
10062Would you if you could?
10062Yes,Jack said, unconsciously,"women enjoy crying--""You insufferable braggart, how dare you talk like that?
10062Yes-- but how are we going to get to Richmond? 10062 Yes?
10062You are Rosalind?
10062You are an abolitionist?
10062You are feeling better, are n''t you, lieutenant?
10062You are from Richmond?
10062You are sure you do not repent? 10062 You came through from Richmond last week?
10062You have been with us all the time?
10062You here, Kate? 10062 You mean my sense is small?"
10062You mean we could get there by water?
10062You''re not in earnest?
10062You''re quoting Shakespeare, I suppose you know? 10062 You''ve turned Dick into a seamstress, have you, Rosalind?
10062_Yes, mein golonel, I hof cabbage und sauerkraut und"--looking about circumspectly--"_etwas schnapps aus Antwerpen gebracht?
10062''The pen is mightier than the sword''would n''t do, would it?
10062A Yankee?"
10062A voice, not a negro''s, said:"I went to the cove for you-- what was the matter?"
10062After all, might he not be right?
10062Ah, Rosa, if-- if I should die-- if I should be carried away, would you always love me, would you always believe in me?"
10062Am I not a man when I look in your dear eyes and see nothing worldlier than love, nothing earthlier than truth there?"
10062And Mr. Sprague-- have they found him?"
10062And did n''t everybody know that it was going to march direct to Richmond?
10062And his mother, what must her state of mind be?
10062And his mother?
10062And what might not happen during those momentous months?
10062And who knows what may happen to make you glad that, since there must be strife, I am one of the enemy rather than a stranger?
10062And yet, how use them, and avoid throwing suspicion upon her father in cautioning Elkins not to approach him?
10062And you have a mother?"
10062Angels and ministers of grace, the dead in wailing woe over the deed about to be done?
10062Are Jack and he going to sit and smoke, as they often do?
10062Are all the boats here?"
10062Are the two hundred and fifty, then, traitors?
10062Are they Copperheads?
10062Are they Copperheads?
10062Are they as bad travel as this?"
10062Are they rebel sympathizers?
10062Are they to cross the river?
10062Are we in danger here?
10062Are you going far?"
10062Are you less than any of the damsels we read of in chivalry?
10062Are you really their friend?"
10062As the man closed the outer door, Kate made a step forward, crying:"You never mean to say that I am a prisoner in my own father''s house?"
10062As they neared the horses Jack came upon them, and taking the elder, Gabe, in the shadow of the house, he whispered:"Have the soldiers''pistols?"
10062As they reached the door, her father asked:"Where are you going?
10062At the porch Rosa exclaimed, in surprise:"I wonder where Pizarro is?
10062Barney, you''re crazy-- there''s no such officer in the army-- I know all the names-- you mean General Banks, do n''t you?"
10062Because his estate has given more to the Union cause than any other family in the township?"
10062Boone-- Warchester?
10062But he had no sooner ran over the lines than he turned to the courier, crying, in visible discomfiture:"When did you leave the war office?"
10062But how could they carry the prisoners with them?
10062But how?
10062But how?
10062But is it sure Wesley is not in his room?
10062But was there any certainty that the report of Jack''s death was true?
10062But what is the sound at his very feet?
10062But what man did she know?
10062But what troops can they be in that quarter?
10062But where can these hordes come from?
10062Can I attend to the business you have with him?"
10062Can I see him?"
10062Can I, Vincent?"
10062Can it be animals of prey?
10062Can it be possible that Porter''s troops do not see these on- rushing hordes?
10062Can it be that troops are arriving from Richmond?
10062Can we get to them?"
10062Can you find it?"
10062Can you manage any way to get a letter or telegram sent her?"
10062Come and have a drink?"
10062Could I be indifferent to them?"
10062Could Jack be the base schemer her father depicted him?
10062Could Merry be made use of?
10062Could Wesley be descending thence to the ground?
10062Could anything be clearer than his odious treason?
10062Could it be possible that he was human to her, inhuman to the rest of the world?
10062Could it be true?
10062Could she ever be serious?
10062Dare he move?
10062Dare he seek the distant pine, between him and which the black surface of the murky sheet shines, dotted with uncanny growth and reptilian things?
10062Dick:"Some other fellow''s sister?"
10062Did n''t he believe that there were men there?
10062Did you ever see such merry rogues?
10062Did you know that a company of cavalry had gone into camp just below the grove?"
10062Do n''t you have a uniform?"
10062Do n''t you know every Northern mother has the same feeling?"
10062Do n''t you know it will kill her?"
10062Do n''t you know that no end of ours could justify that?
10062Do n''t you want to take my arm?"
10062Do the Misses Pomfret graduate all their young ladies with such a tone and laxity of speech as you have lately shown?
10062Do they have care?
10062Do you believe me, Olympia-- do you doubt me?"
10062Do you desire to be heard by counsel?
10062Do you feel it; do you notice it?"
10062Do you hear?
10062Do you know him?"
10062Do you know who he is?"
10062Do you suppose I would sit here like a goose on a gridiron and let you hold my foot if it did n''t hurt?
10062Do you suppose that I would not have taken measures to find out where my own-- I mean where friends were?
10062Do you think you can remain bent until we reach them?
10062Do you think you could make yourself of that much use?
10062Do you want to go into the Union lines?"
10062Does n''t that deserve shooting?
10062Evidently some one who knows that the family jewels are there, for what else can they want?"
10062Felon?
10062Finally, as she moved impatiently, he asked:"Does it hurt yet?"
10062For had n''t he given up the glory of graduation and the delights of"commencement"to take up his musket for the Union?
10062Had Dick escaped with Jack?
10062Had Jack left papers incriminating him?
10062Had he been accidentally hurt?
10062Had he been promoted on the battle- field?
10062Had he some evidence that she had not heard?
10062Had he suffered a relapse?
10062Had n''t he cunningly cajoled the Boones into the visit to the rebel household, in order to wrest the secrets of the Union rescue from them?
10062Had n''t he, of all the unfortunates of the battle, found favor and luxurious quarters in Richmond?
10062Had she danced with him, drove with him, sailed with him, walked in the moonlight and made much of him in mere wanton mischief?
10062Had she heard from their nephew?
10062Had that headstrong young marplot been detected in treason with the colored people?
10062Had the hateful fires of vengeance been quenched?
10062Hastening back to Dick, he asked:"Can you swim?"
10062Have n''t they written?"
10062Have n''t you heard from him?
10062Have you ever traveled in out- of- the- way places in Germany, Austria, or Italy?"
10062Have you heard nothing from your son since you saw him?"
10062Have you learned the dreadful news?
10062Have you made inquiry in the company on duty where Jack and his companions got into your lines?"
10062Have you seen your aunt?
10062Have you tied the horses?"
10062He breathed so softly, or did he breathe at all?
10062He did not in the dim light observe the figure in black, but, looking at the maid, said, softly:"What''s wanted, Sarah?"
10062He heard, in a vague, far- off voice, men talking:"We''ll catch old Abe on our next trip ef we go on like this-- eh, Ben?"
10062He is captain of Company K of the Caribee Regiment--""Caribee?
10062He led them swiftly and surely, and why should n''t he?
10062He passed his hand over his staring eyes, and began to murmur:"Did you bring me here to do murder, Elisha Boone?
10062He returned the salute and asked:"Sergeant, are you on duty?"
10062He shrinks into shadow against the oak at this suggestion; snakes?
10062He was deceiving her; else why no mention of his mission to Washington-- his abduction of Jones?
10062How can they find out?
10062How could she reveal her terrors to the mother and sister?
10062How could they have heard of the affair so quickly, for Jack took it for granted that it was his exploit that the troopers were afoot to balk?
10062How could you do such a thing?
10062How dare she talk like that to a soldier?
10062How dare you?"
10062How did you learn I was here?
10062How do you propose disposing of your tobacco and cotton this year?"
10062How do you suppose I could have managed to get to you if I had n''t?
10062How do you suppose they are to endure march and battle?
10062How does that strike you?"
10062How expose the doubt of her father?
10062How is he?"
10062How is it you are free and allowed in the streets?"
10062How long will it last?
10062How long will it take us to reach that the shortest way?"
10062How long?
10062How long?
10062How make known to them the unworthy side of her father''s character?
10062How many days had passed since the battle?
10062How many men are we likely to encounter in the event of a fracas?"
10062How many?"
10062How should I know the affairs of such superior people?"
10062How should she gain her end and yet save herself from the humiliation of seeming to spy upon her father?
10062How to get away?
10062How will you manage?
10062How will you work it?
10062How would you bear up in Libby Prison?
10062How?
10062I am come to, to--"What should she say?
10062I am deeply interested in him, Did you have charge of him?"
10062I am looking up Company K. You have n''t heard anything of young Moore, Barney, who lives on the Callao road south of Acredale?"
10062I could n''t joke when I was dead, could I?"
10062I hope Rosa has n''t let you talk?"
10062I know that he will grant her permission to take Richard home with her, and the question now is whether it is safe to let them go together alone?"
10062I mean the Caribees-- were there many?
10062I must be back before twelve; what''s been done?"
10062I suppose you are with the Spragues?"
10062I think I have said that Jack was a very comely fellow?
10062I wonder how he crossed the stream?
10062I wonder if it would n''t be better to speak to Vincent?"
10062I wonder if they found Wesley?"
10062I would as soon have lost my own child as be forced to put this mark on you?
10062I''m afraid the parlor wo n''t be very sightly, but you wo n''t mind, will you?"
10062I''se fo''bid to go da-- I--""Well, well, have you any food?
10062If he ate honeysuckle instead of hard- tack would he be squeezed for his scents to fill ladies''smelling- bottles?"
10062If he left her without a word, what would she think?
10062If it were not Jack, what interest could her father have in his removal?
10062If they were all right, why should they do that?"
10062Is Davis here?"
10062Is Vincent going to bed?
10062Is he?"
10062Is it not time to look at life with a new heart-- with clear- seeing eyes?"
10062Is it possible, then, that the Copperheads are supplying the money to carry on the war?
10062Is it the enemy, or is it friends?
10062Is it you?"
10062Is n''t it the realization of all you ever read in''Uncle Tom''or''Dred''?"
10062Is the other man his brother?
10062Is the skiff here?"
10062Is this a Copperhead community?
10062It ca n''t be that you would think of leaving a fellow- soldier in such extremity as this, Dick?
10062It is a promise; when this white rose is red you will love me?"
10062It is as much, as to say that you wo n''t wait and see whether you may meet some one that you can be surer of than you are of me?"
10062It is notorious that women love babies, while you have only the spiteful saying of a very uncertain old prophet for your major--""Whose major?"
10062It was there we got track of you-- before you were sent here,"''"Why was I sent here?"
10062It was true they had given twenty thousand dollars to the cause, but what was that to threefold millionaires?
10062It wo n''t do to rush into a trap, as you did at Manassas; and, O Jack, what is to become of Dick?
10062It''s an easy name, and plenty of the same in the land; and if I should die suddenly there would be lots o''folks to feel sorry, eh?
10062Jack stepped back to his post, as the guard called out:"Where are you?
10062Jack thought,"have I sacrificed Dick and Jones in my zeal to be adventurous?
10062Jack told you when he got my letter?"
10062Jack waited until the rest were scattered, and then, leading the boys aside, said, sternly:"Do n''t you know you can be put in prison for this?
10062Jack whispered, making for the window in the rear,"Is there a cellar, or can we get on the roof?"
10062Jack''s comrade held this conversation with one of the prisoners:"I say, reb, what place is this?"
10062Jack, wan, emaciated, on the verge of the grave?
10062Kate, recalling her departure, asked,"You did not get the letter I left for you at home?"
10062Kill them?
10062Kohlen, nicht wahr-- sauerkraut-- das is aber schon?
10062Make out an order-- for whom?"
10062Merry, where''s the paper?"
10062Merry:"Bad boys?"
10062Might the war not be a mere game of havoc played by the base and unscrupulous?
10062Mrs. Atterbury turned to him, crying convulsively:"Oh, what does it mean, Mr. Sprague?
10062Mrs. Bevan opened it herself, and Olympia, standing in the hall, heard a well- known voice, quick, eager, joyous:"Is Mrs. Sprague, here?"
10062Mrs. Sprague:"Giddy girls?"
10062My name?
10062No word from Dick?
10062No word from Jack?
10062No?
10062Now, can you not manage to inspire Perley with the same sentiment?
10062Now, is it or is it not dishonorable for me to do it?"
10062Now, what do you think of that?"
10062Of course you did not ask any of their names?"
10062Of course, Barney must be apprised of the rescue, and what time more propitious than the present?
10062Of what am I accused?
10062Of what am I accused?"
10062Oh, is there anything about him?"
10062Oh, we could never think of such a thing,"Rosa cried--"could we, mamma?"
10062Oh, where is he?
10062Oh, where were her arts now, when she most needed them?
10062Oh, you think I ca n''t?
10062Olympia:"Some other girl''s brother?"
10062Pens are only fit for poets and men of peace?
10062Perhaps Jack has been caught reconnoitring?
10062Perhaps he has gone with the main body, not venturing to try for Jones and Dick without help?
10062Perhaps to Jack''s room?
10062Perhaps you think it will be dull here?
10062Pray, what do you know about women''s likes and dislikes?"
10062Rosa cried, impatiently;"not mamma?"
10062Rosa:"Crops, mamma?"
10062Saturday, August 4th?
10062See?"
10062Shall I go dah?"
10062Shall I guide that way?"
10062Shall I say it?
10062She did, and passed him trippingly, saying, as she cast a sympathetic side glance at him:"Toothache?"
10062She greeted him with the affectionate cordiality of a mother, and asked:"How have you borne the fatigue?
10062She made her way through the crowd to her brother''s side, and with an air of the liveliest interest demanded:"Jack, what have you in your knapsack?
10062She turned pettishly, and he said, insinuatingly:"Toothache?"
10062She turned to the steward--"Who is in the third cot from here?"
10062She was dressed like a dowdy, and when the ministers bowed she gave them her hand and said,''How d''ye do?''"
10062Should he give the boy another half- hour''s grace?
10062Should he slip over and warn Jack?
10062Should you mind going in a little farther-- I should like the sensation of awe the place suggests, since there can be no danger-- while you are here?"
10062Snakes?
10062Sprague?"
10062Sprague?"
10062Sprague?"
10062Suppose we can sell''em in Richmond?"
10062Surely there is no danger in pushing toward the firing?"
10062Surely they can not hasten the slow business of negotiation?"
10062Surely you have heard of that?"
10062Surely, you do n''t think me a profligate?"
10062Tell me, have I not?"
10062Tell me-- did they hit you?
10062That he had been taken away from the hospital?
10062The captain might know Braine, and then how could he extricate himself from the dilemma?
10062The captain nodded, and Barney said innocently:"Had anything to eat to- day?"
10062The fates had immolated the helpless; were the fates preparing a still bitterer expiation?
10062The horses?
10062The plot, in all its details, must have been known to Jack or Dick, else how explain their presence in the chamber, armed and ready for the murder?
10062The restless, keen eyes looked up sharply and a dissonant, imperious, repellent voice jerked out:"Well, my man, what is it?"
10062The savory fumes of hot sauerkraut aroused the warrior from his reveries, and he asked, in vociferous delight:_"Was haben sie?
10062Then suppose we reached the spot?
10062Then, throwing the paper aside, he asked, coldly:"Why should you ask me what it means?
10062There are as good men as you there, my dear; shall I say better or older soldiers, Brutus?
10062There, do you hear that?
10062There, do you hear that?"
10062They are stopping with Jeff Davis, I suppose?
10062They are''fraid as sin of the overseers, but you notice they shut up all the negroes in their own quarters at night, do n''t you?
10062They could hear the tramp of horses, how many they could not judge, and then a gruff voice demanding:"You, Rafe, what ye up to?
10062They had not seen each other in four years, but they were in each other''s arms-- laughing, sobbing-- exclaiming:"How did you know?
10062They had said in Washington that the journey would kill him; was it to that end her relentless father had persisted in the removal?
10062They have discovered the wrong done me?"
10062They must be surrounded, like ourselves.--Sergeant, can you undertake a dangerous duty?"
10062To relieve him Olympia smiled sadly, saying,"Wo n''t you take us back, please?"
10062Twigg hurried to him and asked:"Any further news, Mr. Boone?
10062Vincent:"A mistress''s eyebrow?"
10062Was Jack indeed dead, and was his good name the object of her father''s hatred?
10062Was all the tenderness of the past only heedless coquetry?
10062Was he at home?
10062Was he in the Union lines?
10062Was he near the door?
10062Was it too late to write them?
10062Was n''t he always snooping''round in the regiment trying to undermine your brother?
10062Was n''t he always trying to be popular?
10062Was n''t it a splendid fight?
10062Was n''t it he who commanded at Bull Run?"
10062Was she about to see the dying brought to death''s door by her own flesh and blood?
10062Was she giving information to the enemy?
10062Was she to lose all-- brother, lover, father-- in this unnatural strife?
10062Was the collapsed body at his feet his father''s?
10062Was this a challenge?
10062Was-- I dreaming?
10062We ca n''t go right on the cars?
10062We got their flags and sent them to Richmond; we--""And, oh, sir, did you take the prisoners?
10062We heard cavalry- men on the other side of the pond; are they rebel or Yankee?"
10062Were they soldiers?"
10062What can it mean?
10062What chance would I have if I did n''t?
10062What could be done?
10062What could be done?
10062What could he do?
10062What could it mean?
10062What could it mean?
10062What could it mean?
10062What did this mean?
10062What do you mean?"
10062What do you mean?"
10062What do you want?
10062What does it mean?"
10062What does this mean?
10062What does this mean?"
10062What had he learned?
10062What half- human-- or rather wholly inhuman-- sounds are these that alternate in unearthly measure?
10062What have I ever done to justify such a stigma?"
10062What have we to tell him?
10062What if the torch and the odor of flesh should draw the snakes to the sleeper?
10062What is it you would have me tell?"
10062What is it?
10062What is our poor grief to hers; what is our loss to hers?
10062What is the old line?
10062What need to go into the details?
10062What right had she to be so pretty and so-- without heart or sensibility?
10062What shall I do?--O Polly, what shall we do?"
10062What shall we do if he has?"
10062What should he do?
10062What should he say?
10062What should she say?
10062What stronger evidence of sympathy for the cause could he show than joining the army before finishing college?"
10062What was it?
10062What was she hearing?
10062What was she rashly promising for him?
10062What was that?"
10062What will she think of me sneaking away like this without a word?
10062What will your mother say?
10062What would you think of a Southern girl who should refuse him because he fought on the side of his family and his State?
10062What ye got a light burnin''this time o''night fo''?"
10062What you''bout?"
10062What''s that sound?
10062What''s the matter?"
10062What''s to become of you?"
10062What, pray?"
10062What-- what have you on?"
10062When did you come?"
10062Where am I?
10062Where are the ropes?"
10062Where are the twelve thousand men whom Hunter and Heintzelman deployed in these woods two hours since?
10062Where can Jack be?
10062Where can it come from?"
10062Where could Dick be?
10062Where could her father be?
10062Where has she been of late?"
10062Where he goes, I''m going; where he stays, I''ll stay-- sha''n''t I, Jack?"
10062Where is Burnside?
10062Where is he?
10062Where shall you be?"
10062Where were Barney and Nick, and, worse than all, young Dick Perley?
10062Which of you wants water?
10062Which will reach the hill first?
10062Whither should she turn?
10062Who can have heart to fight for such heartless traffickers?"
10062Who comes there?"
10062Who commands it?"
10062Who could it be?
10062Who else did her father know in the army?
10062Who gave her to you?"
10062Who is Jacques?
10062Who is he?"
10062Who of the Caribees can these be?
10062Who was he?
10062Who was this Jones?
10062Who''s dar-- you, Gabe?
10062Whom can she get if not a friend?"
10062Whom could she send in her place?
10062Whom had her father been taking from the hospital-- Jack?
10062Whom was she about to see?
10062Why am I here?"
10062Why are n''t you with your company?
10062Why blast the melancholy repose of the living, by fastening this stain upon the dead?
10062Why could not I have gone in with you?
10062Why did n''t you tell me--""Tell you what?"
10062Why did she call him lieutenant?
10062Why do n''t you write to the-- the-- head man?"
10062Why had n''t he thought of this before?
10062Why had she not asked the young men at Georgetown to describe Jones?
10062Why had she not thought of this-- her fathers passivity or even opposition?
10062Why have they such a force here?
10062Why make me drive from Dessau the brightest fellow in the classes?
10062Why remove him to Warchester?
10062Why should Dick be firmer than he?
10062Why should n''t I have me joke when I''ve had nothing but hard knocks, loneliness, and the company of the prison for half the year?"
10062Why should they care to live when that noble fellow has been dishonored by your cruel acts?
10062Why should you go back?
10062Why will you pretend not to understand me?
10062Why, do you know the man has cleared a million dollars on rotten blankets since he came here?
10062Why?
10062Why?"
10062Will he take ev''ybody''long, too, Clem?''
10062Will ye all swear secrecy?"
10062Will you call a carriage?"
10062Will you do this?"
10062Will you help me?
10062Will you not get the carriage and take us?"
10062Will you not?"
10062Wo n''t you say something to encourage me-- to give me heart for the future?"
10062Would he enter?
10062Would the quavering slaves have presence of mind to divert suspicion?
10062Would they instantly make use of it?
10062Would you mind taking this telegram to the War Department, through the park yonder?"
10062You know him?"
10062You know our house is the high court of abolitionism?
10062You know that feeling has been very bitter here since the dreadful attack on the Massachusetts soldiers in Baltimore?
10062You see those men at work?
10062You see, I can not select any text quite suitable to your case?"
10062You''re deeper than a well; and what was the other thing Mercutio said?"
10062You''re sure you know Davis''s room?
10062You, there, you young imps, step about lively-- do you heah?"
10062You-- do-- not believe that your brother is dead?"
10062a military despotism?"
10062are you hurt?
10062are you two grafting roses?"
10062do you hear that?
10062father, father, what good comes of anger-- what joy of revenge?
10062first, what could she say to Olympia?
10062he cried;"Barney Moore, is that you?"
10062is it really you?"
10062is it you?"
10062or can you wake?"
10062she screamed, starting up--"where is he?
10062stand still, what''s that?
10062what after?
10062what does it mean?"
10062what in all history would compare with this glorious daring?
10062what is it?
10062what shall we do?
10062what''s this at his feet-- soft, clammy, shining in the flaring light?
10062where could she catch small- pox?"
10062where do you get such repulsive ideas of us; who has been traducing us to you?"
10062why carry the hideous feud further?
10062you have been converted?"
10062you have n''t been trying to make an uprising among the Rosedale servants, Dick?
10062you think Southern men do not hold marriage to be sacred?"
40541A baby?
40541Abner, you surely do not intend to vote for that Abolitionist?
40541About me?
40541Ah, where?
40541Ah, where?
40541And a red face?
40541And does he consent?
40541And does he suffer-- is he old? 40541 And my brother Benjamin-- did you see him?"
40541And red eyebrows?
40541And red eyelashes-- long and red?
40541And so they are on their way to fight the Abolitionists at the Junction?
40541And the murderer?
40541And the other two children?
40541And was carryin''two buckets for water?
40541And where shall I search?
40541And why?
40541Answer this question instead: Are you Crazy Joe''s mud man, and why did you leave before he came back to exhibit you?
40541Anything stirring yet, Willie?
40541Are they Union or secesh?
40541Are we goin''to keep it?
40541Are you afraid?
40541Are you alone?
40541Are you going to turn a Martin Van Buren and join the Free- soilers?
40541Are you hungry, Joe?
40541Are you hurt, Willie?
40541Are you laying a trap to catch us?
40541Brothers seeking each other''s blood?
40541But can you not see what lies in the background?
40541But do you think that a good master needs to guard his slaves with armed overseers and dogs?
40541But have you asked papa about that?
40541But how do you intend to resist? 40541 But what do I want with him, if I should catch him?
40541But what is that awful noise? 40541 But when this cruel war is over, and peace returns once more, will you then consent to become my wife?"
40541But who have you there? 40541 But why are you in Egypt?
40541But will you give me your love? 40541 But would n''t it be grand for Crazy Joe''s mud man to turn out a general?"
40541But you promise you will change?
40541By that you mean you live in no particular place?
40541By whom?
40541Ca n''t you guess what''s in the wind?
40541Ca n''t you recollect that your father had another name?
40541Ca n''t you talk sense, or are you a fool?
40541Can you not remember what your name was when you played by the lake under the big palmetto tree by the lake?
40541Can you not remember what your name was?
40541Can you not trust me, Irene?
40541Can you not trust me? 40541 Come from Canaan?
40541Come here, some o''you fellars what''s a loafin''about there?
40541Corporal Diggs,she cried,"what has happened?"
40541Could not the doctor tell how long he had been in this condition?
40541D''ye know the lay of the land?
40541Did he not say that such emancipation would be unwise policy?
40541Did not Moses deliver the children of Israel from bondage long after Jacob''s death?
40541Did you bring your wife?
40541Did you cause any extra search to be made?
40541Did you try to persuade Oleah to leave the Southern army?
40541Diggs, Henry Diggs?
40541Diggs, I hear that you have enlisted in the Confederate army; is it so?
40541Diggs,said the old man, and there was not the slightest tinge of jest in his tones,"what war ye doing with the rebels?"
40541Do n''t the''Barnburners,''''Wooly Heads''and Abolitionists from Ohio and Pennsylvania come over here and steal them away?
40541Do n''t you want to see it, Uncle Dan?
40541Do they make the best judges who know the least?
40541Do what?
40541Do you belong to that house?
40541Do you come from the land of Canaan, and is the famine over where my father dwells?
40541Do you comprehend, colonel?
40541Do you forget, when you speak so confidently of your victories,said Olivia, sweetly and sadly,"that you speak of our defeat?
40541Do you intend to sleep, or let any of us sleep to- night?
40541Do you know anything of her?
40541Do you know me, Oleah, do you know me?
40541Do you know that is very dangerous?
40541Do you know what''s going to become of me?
40541Do you leave home to- night?
40541Do you mean to say that ye have been a prisoner all this time?
40541Do you not comprehend me? 40541 Do you not see, can you not understand, that you ask impossibilities of me?"
40541Do you surrender?
40541Do you think I''ll be shot, Uncle Dan?
40541Do you think those fellows over there will fight?
40541Do you want to go home to your parents?
40541Do? 40541 Does he ever git rantankerous?"
40541Does yer want ter see my master?
40541Halloo, whom have we here?
40541Harry Smith?
40541Harry,he said,"do you know who we are fighting, who those men are across the river?"
40541Has he lucid intervals?
40541Has not, hey? 40541 Has not?
40541Have I ever known you before?
40541Have the people gone crazy?
40541Have you a bad master, and do you want me to buy you?
40541Have you any further business with me?
40541Have you been in a rage to- night?
40541Have you been well?
40541Have you ever been in any engagement, corporal?
40541Have you ever read of Wagner, the Wehr- wolf?
40541Have you ever seen or heard of them since?
40541Have you heard any news recently?
40541Have you seen Oleah since?
40541Have you seen my father Jacob or my brother Benjamin?
40541Have you seen my father?
40541Have you seen my father?
40541Have you tried to find out about him?
40541He says he holds the key, which will unlock the mystery of her parentage,said Mr. Tompkins,"but how are we to get him to turn it?"
40541Helloa, where are you going?
40541Hey, fellow,he cried,"what are you doing there?"
40541Hilloa, Joe, what are you doing?
40541His malady may be curable; have you consulted a physician about it?
40541How are yerself and all the rest of the boys?
40541How came you to see them both? 40541 How can it be that you will vote for an abolitionist?"
40541How can you be so wicked,said Diggs,"to carry on such unholy games, when you know that the judgment awaits you?"
40541How did it happen? 40541 How did that happen?"
40541How did you learn that? 40541 How do you all do?"
40541How do you do, Joe?
40541How do you know that we are to part to- night?
40541How far is it to where we can stop over night?
40541How long have they been in Jeff Davis''army?
40541How long have you been here?
40541How long have you been in this State?
40541How many are they?
40541How many women?
40541How many you got?
40541How old is this hen I am picking?
40541How would you like to free them and leave them among us?
40541How would you treat them?
40541How?
40541Hulloa, you thieves; I''ve cotched you now?
40541I ca n''t tell what the deuce you mean?
40541I know nothing about either side,the girl answered, lightly;"so how can I choose?"
40541I suppose Seth Williams and Howard Jones are there?
40541I take it for granted you own slaves?
40541If the slaves were taken from us, who would cultivate these vast fields?
40541If you have any information to give, why not give it now?
40541If you please, marster,he said, shaking his head,"Marster Abner--""What of him?"
40541Is Oleah Tompkins your captain?
40541Is every thing arranged, Jackson?
40541Is he always mild?
40541Is he hurt?
40541Is it Breckinridge, Douglas, or constitutional unionist Bell?
40541Is it not written that Jacob did go down into Egypt with his whole family, and that he wept on Joseph''s neck, and said he was willing to die?
40541Is it such a surprise to you? 40541 Is n''t it sweet?
40541Is n''t, eh? 40541 Is that big, two- hundred- and- fifty- pounder Douglas?"
40541Is that short, stout- built man with big burnsides Lincoln?
40541Is the famine sore in the land where my father dwells?
40541Is there any one with you in the cabin?
40541Is your name Patrick Henry Diggs?
40541Is your name Tompkins?
40541It is a child''s voice,said Mrs. Tompkins;"but why is it there?"
40541It is true, he must oppose me in every thing? 40541 It''s a Christmas gift, ai n''t it, Maggie?"
40541It''s our baby, is n''t it mamma?
40541Jim Moore, from Snagtown, and, if I ai nt mistaken, you are Seth Williams?
40541Leave you? 40541 Mamma,"said Abner, when Joe had gone out,"what makes him say such strange things?
40541Men what do you mean?
40541Missus, how d''ye reckin it came on the porch?
40541Mistake? 40541 Motive?
40541My dear, do you think you can guard a man who has led a thousand soldiers to the field of battle?
40541My friend, what you say is true, too true,he said;"but is the master always blameless?
40541Now do n''t you remember that his Christian name was Henry?
40541O Abner, O my brother, how can you be so blinded? 40541 O, Heaven, is he among the dead?
40541O, Uncle Dan, you wo nt let them shoot me, will you? 40541 Of course it is--""And our baby is a girl, and must have a girl''s name, musn''t it, mamma?"
40541Of course,the Carolinian answered;"how else would you keep the black rascals in subjection?
40541Oh, is n''t it sweet?
40541Oh, it''s a nigger baby, is it?
40541Oh, mamma, where did you get it?
40541Oh, mamma, where did you get such a pretty name?
40541Oh, what shall I do?
40541Oh, what shall we do? 40541 Oh, yes; is this the same baby old Mr. Post found?"
40541Partnership?
40541Pausin''to view the land ahead?
40541Pickets, sir?
40541Save ye from what?
40541Sergeant,whispered Corporal Grimm,"did you ever hear as long a prayer in your life?"
40541That is all true,said Oleah, restlessly,"but why talk of that, above all other times, to- night?"
40541That was in his''Ode to an Expiring Calf,''was it not?
40541The hunter of Twin Mountains?
40541The men are only joking, Camille; ca n''t you see they are only joking?
40541Then how can you be Joseph, when he died three or four thousand years ago?
40541Then what can you have to tell me that would interest me?
40541Then what is this secret, brother?
40541Then what was ye doing with a gun in yer hand, when we come on ye and the others?
40541Then why are you conjuring recollections of the past?
40541Then why refuse to enter the Confederate army? 40541 Then, sir, what is your business here?"
40541Then, why is it not called the United People, and not the United States? 40541 They sha n''t have it, shall they, papa?"
40541Think of it? 40541 To see me?
40541Wait and see?
40541Wait until he has withdrawn every gun and armed vessel from the South? 40541 Wall, how''s times about heah, any how, and how''s politicks?"
40541Wall, now, ai n''t that strange? 40541 Was it as terrible as the message said?"
40541Was that man connected with my Uncle''s murder?

40541Well, but do n''t I git no pay?
40541Well, have you ever seen me before?
40541Well, how fur is it to the next farm- house?
40541Well, is that any reason ye should be keepin''us awake all night?
40541Well, now, who cares if you are?
40541Well, sir, what can I do for you?
40541Well, sir, what will you have?
40541Well, then, what can you do for me?
40541Well, what do you propose, now that you are here?
40541Well, what is it you have to say to me?
40541Well, what is the matter?
40541Well, what will you have?
40541Well, what''s the matter here?
40541Were you not frightened?
40541What are niggers doing here?
40541What are you doing here?
40541What are you doing up there, you scamps?
40541What are you in favor of, Patrick Henry?
40541What can you mean?
40541What could have been his motive?
40541What d''ye mean by sayin''vartical?
40541What d''ye want?
40541What d''ye want?
40541What did he assert that he did not prove?
40541What did he prove that he asserted?
40541What did he say?
40541What do I get for reportin''on this ere secesh woman?
40541What do the children mean?
40541What do ye want, Jake Whimple?
40541What do you expect that crazy chap to do?
40541What do you know of her?
40541What do you mean?
40541What do you mean?
40541What do you say, sir?
40541What does this mean, I say?
40541What else have you to say?
40541What has been done with the plantation?
40541What have you, Willie?
40541What is beautiful?
40541What is his name?
40541What is it, old man?
40541What is it, what is it?
40541What is it? 40541 What is it?"
40541What is it?
40541What is that?
40541What is that?
40541What is the matter, Dinah?
40541What is the matter, Job?
40541What is the matter, Pompey?
40541What is your name?
40541What kinder man was he-- red hair?
40541What made you go away before I showed you?
40541What objection can even a believer in slavery have to that? 40541 What of them?"
40541What office does Oleah hold?
40541What piece shall I say?
40541What shall we do to keep awake this evening?
40541What system?
40541What was that?
40541What will you have, gentlemen?
40541What ye got in the pockets of that great coat?
40541What''s the use of bringing up those old things again?
40541What''s to be done with us?
40541What, dear?
40541What, the baby?
40541What? 40541 What?"
40541When did you see them last?
40541When do you meet again?
40541When do you remember seeing your father last?
40541When was yer hair cut?
40541Where are they?
40541Where are ye going?
40541Where are you going, Irene?
40541Where are you going?
40541Where are your sons?
40541Where can we get our breakfast?
40541Where did he go?
40541Where did these troops come from?
40541Where did you see it?
40541Where did you see my boys last?
40541Where do you live?
40541Where do you meet to- morrow night?
40541Where does he live?
40541Where in the world did you come from?
40541Where is Captain Tompkins now?
40541Where is he?
40541Where is he?
40541Where is its mother?
40541Where is the key, and what is the mystery?
40541Where is your husband?
40541Where shall I search?
40541Where was it?
40541Where were they going?
40541Where?
40541Where?
40541Where?
40541Where?
40541Where?
40541Which army?
40541Which way did they go?
40541Who are they?
40541Who are they?
40541Who are ye talkin''to?
40541Who are you and what are you doing up there?
40541Who are you going to vote for, Abner?
40541Who are you, and what do you want?
40541Who are you, any way?
40541Who are you?
40541Who are you?
40541Who are you?
40541Who can the little thing belong to, and what are we to do with it?
40541Who comes there, I said?
40541Who comes there?
40541Who could that be, mamma?
40541Who greased yer hat?
40541Who is coming?
40541Who is he?
40541Who is he?
40541Who is he?
40541Who is it? 40541 Who is it?"
40541Who is there? 40541 Who is there?"
40541Who is your father?
40541Who lives there?
40541Who of the English poets do you like best, Corporal Diggs?
40541Who put it there?
40541Who said I was in the mud and water?
40541Who said it was Irene?
40541Who saw me in the mud and water?
40541Who was them uns?
40541Who were they, Seth?
40541Who will judge between us?
40541Who, then, is your man?
40541Why can not political differences be settled without resort to arms? 40541 Why did n''t you press something to eat?
40541Why did you leave before I showed you?
40541Why did you run away?
40541Why not tell me now? 40541 Why, Abner, what do you mean?"
40541Why, Diggs, what in the world do you mean?
40541Why, father, how dare you go there, when your sentiments are known to be directly opposed to their cause? 40541 Why, hallo, Corporal Diggs?"
40541Why, he-- he is comin''?
40541Why, my son, you ca n''t think he would not be permitted to take his seat?
40541Why, sir?
40541Why?
40541Will you come in?
40541Will you take a colonelcy to commence with?
40541Will you?
40541Williams, what do you mean? 40541 With what result?"
40541Wonder how soon we''ll draw our clothing and arms?
40541Would you be willing to lose your own slaves to have the niggers freed?
40541Would you remember if I was to tell you?
40541Yes, but what could fifteen hundred men do at pressin''? 40541 You are a Democrat; do you not hold with us Democrats that the majority should rule?"
40541You are? 40541 You bet I will, my little angel?"
40541You can not have been in both armies?
40541You do n''t believe it''s right to take people''s property from them for nothing and leave people poor, do you, Oleah?
40541You do n''t call the harangue of that contemptible old demagogue reasoning, do you?
40541You do n''t hey? 40541 You have a brother Oleah, who is a captain in the Confederate army, that is right across the hill here?"
40541You live in this State?
40541You over there, Steve? 40541 You think, then, that the real owner has lost his title by his neglect?"
40541Your father is George W. Tompkins, who lives on a plantation near Snagtown?
40541Your name is Tompkins-- you are Captain Abner Tompkins?
40541Your sister as you call her, who was left at your door when a baby--"What of her?
40541_ Not my brother?_ Why you must be mad!
40541A Confederate officer, seeing his endeavor, advanced and said:"Are you badly hurt, colonel?"
40541Ai n''t she sweet, though?"
40541And Abner-- had he accompanied the troops sent to the Junction?
40541And as to our country being too large, can a nation like ours grow too powerful?
40541And why not to- night as well as any other time?"
40541Are we not horrified almost every week by reports of some of their outrages?
40541Are we savages or border ruffians, that we must be swayed and controlled by mob law?
40541By overthrowing the best government the world has ever known?
40541Ca n''t you remember the tiny boats she made for you to float on the lake?"
40541Ca n''t you remember your mother?
40541Can not you come with me?"
40541Can that be what those three shots were fired at which brought us here?"
40541Can you get down, Willie?"
40541Colonel Holdfast looked up from his papers with a"Well, what now?"
40541Could there be on the face of this earth a being so lovely; a mansion, a village, a country so perfectly delightful?
40541Did you find your prisoner in the home of the beaver and musk rat?"
40541Do n''t you know he found a baby at his door?
40541Do you call that vertical?"
40541Do you not remember the home of your childhood-- a large, brown stone mansion, surrounded with palmetto trees, and orange groves, and cane brakes?
40541Do you want to ruin the country?"
40541Does it concern me?"
40541Had she entered this happy home only to bring discord, to widen the breach between the two brothers?
40541Have we not a Constitution and Constitutional privileges?
40541Have we not statute laws to protect us against wrongs which others may inflict?
40541Have you any suspicion who done it?"
40541Have you come to mock his son?"
40541Have you seen my father?"
40541He gazed long and steadfastly, murmuring:"O Irene, Irene, shall we ever meet again?"
40541He walked forward, and, placing his hand on Diggs''shoulder, angrily demanded:"Why are you here, sir?
40541He wants to call it Tommy, and that''s a boy''s name, ai n''t it, mamma?"
40541Hez someone been increasin''yer family by leavin''babies a layin''around loose, or is it a big doll some one haz give the boys?"
40541His first question was,''Have you seen my father Jacob?''"
40541How are you and Joe this evening?"
40541How can they accomplish our ruin?
40541How could she, with all her native pride and prejudices, look on the subject in any other light?
40541How could that man have passed the line of pickets?
40541How d''ye do?"
40541How did you learn that any lady was abducted?"
40541How long ago was it?"
40541How''s all the folks?"
40541I would like to know how you passed the pickets?"
40541If it was not the one concealed among the bulrushes, then what can it be?"
40541Is an earthquake coming?"
40541Is he dangerously wounded?"
40541Is he hurt?"
40541Is it not an unrighteous system which is crushing and cursing our beloved country?"
40541Is life so dear or peace so sweet that they must be bought with slavery and chains?
40541Is n''t it strange, though?
40541Is not that enough to turn all a brother''s love to gall and bitterness?
40541Is not the grand old republic established by Washington good enough for you?
40541Is one of them a prisoner?"
40541Is that true?"
40541Is the lake blowing up?
40541May we not rejoice together, when peace shall come, when the iron heel of martial law shall be removed from your city?
40541Mr. Tompkins called to her:"Maggie, is your mistress in her room?"
40541Mr. Tompkins, I believe?"
40541My dear sir, how could we exist?"
40541My father cares not how much misery I and mine may undergo; need I care if a few gray hairs are added to his head?
40541Never saw no un sneakin''about the house, like?"
40541Now, if man could once be made out of clay, why not now?
40541Now, tell me what he said that any fair- minded man in the world can not agree to?"
40541Now, why did n''t you stay until I showed you?"
40541Oh Lordy, wo n''t no one stop this horse?
40541Other men had risen from obscurity to renown, and why not he?
40541Say, has love no sharper eyes?
40541Seeing a soldier on guard duty outside, he went to the grating and called to him:"Can I speak to you?"
40541Sergeant Swords, did I ever tell you my experience with General Preston?"
40541Some scamp propounded the long unanswered question,"Why did n''t you wait till I had shown you?"
40541Tell me, what is the matter?"
40541The boy reflected a moment, and then said:"Who can I be, if I am not Joseph?"
40541The puzzled mountaineer, with a suspicious look at Mr. Tompkins, said:"Thought ye said the folks was all well?"
40541Then what can we do?
40541Then why resort to mob law?
40541Then why should I mourn for you?"
40541Then, still without any encouraging warmth in her tone, she asked,"When do you expect to leave Snagtown?"
40541Then, turning on the remainder of the band, he asked in a voice of thunder,"What, in heaven''s name, does this mean?"
40541They were never taken prisoner, ducked in a creek, or thrown into a thorn bush; why should I?
40541This baby ai n''t a liverite, and it sha n''t be sterminated, shall it, mamma?"
40541Tom Koontz, ca n''t you learn how to handle a gun?
40541Wait until he has bound us hand and foot?
40541Wait until he has overrun the whole country with armed soldiers?
40541Walking directly up to Mr. Tompkins, he said:"Have you seen my father?
40541Was it not some wild imagination of some artist, that had turned his brain?
40541We have an immense scope of country where slavery is permitted; then why extend it to Territories where it is unpopular?"
40541Well, what for?"
40541What are you fellows following us for?"
40541What can you mean?"
40541What care you for a flag that will not protect you?"
40541What could it mean?
40541What do you mean?"
40541What had I better say or do next?"
40541What had he brought home for them?
40541What had he seen?
40541What have you to say to the charge?"
40541What is it that you mean?"
40541What is it?"
40541What is it?"
40541What is your business with me?"
40541What is your business with me?"
40541What must be done?"
40541What of him?"
40541What of him?"
40541What though he wore the hated uniform of a Union soldier?
40541What war ye doing?"
40541What was the condition of the negro in his native wilds?
40541What was your father''s name?"
40541What would the gentlemen have?
40541When he met any one he would say:"Well, what''s the news, and what''s the prospect of war?"
40541When her work was done, she came to Mrs. Tompkins''room, and that lady asked:"Have you found anything, Hannah?"
40541When was he married?"
40541When would that long line end?
40541Where did he go?"
40541Where had he been?
40541Where have you been, corporal?"
40541Where shall I go?"
40541Where were they going?
40541Which side are you on?"
40541Who can doubt that South Carolina has not the right, when she has become capable of taking care of herself, to withdraw from others?"
40541Who could have committed that awful murder?
40541Who put that baby on your piazza, and who is this crazy boy?"
40541Who should share your troubles if not your sister?"
40541Who were they?
40541Whom have I the honor of addressing?"
40541Why did you not remain where I left you?
40541Why disgrace our fair State and put the blush of shame on all good citizens by attacking, like outlaws, a stranger among us?
40541Why was he coming to the Junction?
40541Why, what if he was to get sick, away off there, and me here?
40541Will not my wife forgive me?"
40541Will you not speak?"
40541Will you remain in this city until I shall come for you?"
40541Williams?"
40541Would you have him expose his life that way, when he does n''t know what he is doing?
40541Ye do n''t say so?"
40541You are joined now with my enemies, fighting to rob me of country and home; you have tried to take from me more than my life-- why not my life?
40541You are my Uncle Esau; but why should you be here in Egypt?
40541You are to start to- morrow in search of the young lady who was abducted?"
40541You do n''t believe that people, because they are black, should be bought and sold and beaten like cattle, do you?"
40541You passed through a country where there was plenty, did n''t you?"
40541You''ll not shoot at him to hit?"
40541ai n''t you awful sweet?"
40541are you just leaving?"
40541asked one of the travelers,"and where does he come from?"
40541cried another voice,"what does all this mean?"
40541he thought,"why am I in these ranks, a rebel and a traitor, fighting against the best government this world has ever known?"
40541mentally ejaculated Irene,"does the little fool mean to propose?"
40541my dear, dear Whimple, you''re not killed, are you?
40541what are you doing here?"
40541what shall we do?"
12015''Bout ten minutes ago, was n''t it, boys?
12015A guard? 12015 A last word, hey?"
12015A quadroon-- and claiming to have once lived here? 12015 A sentry post; answer up, or I''ll call the guard-- who are you?"
12015A very graceful surrender-- hey, Bell? 12015 Ai n''t it the same nigger, sir, what brought us up here?"
12015Ai n''t that about it, Joe?
12015All here, Sergeant? 12015 Am I no longer a prisoner?"
12015Am I perfectly free to act?
12015Am I to understand from this, Captain Le Gaire, that you are not only a bully, but also a coward?
12015An attack in front?
12015An''ye think that feller did it?
12015And Beauregard is marching along this road, I presume?
12015And Billie?
12015And Bird''s Ferry?
12015And I refuse-- refuse, do you understand that? 12015 And Le Gaire?"
12015And Miss Hardy?
12015And do you?
12015And how did you reach the hallway without being seen?
12015And if I refuse?
12015And if convinced otherwise, what would you do?
12015And is the house under guard?
12015And my sentence, then, is solitary confinement?
12015And our men?
12015And that uniform yonder-- it is no barrier, dear? 12015 And the rest of the house-- do you know how they came out?"
12015And there are horses there?
12015And they were ready to leave?
12015And this is no joke?
12015And was it because I was unwilling to listen that-- that you did what you did later?
12015And what were you going to do with this information, Major Hardy?
12015And you actually believed all this of me?
12015And you never saw the man''s face, Miss?
12015And you say he was wounded?
12015And you think I do?
12015And you, Miles?
12015And you-- you are injured?
12015And-- and you got to the''Three Corners''?
12015Are they ever justified?
12015Are you a new recruit?
12015Are you going to Jonesboro?
12015Are you hurt, Lieutenant? 12015 Are you in command?"
12015Are you not frightened?
12015Are you sorry I did not?
12015Are you the Yank in command?
12015Because even in that little time you had learned to care for me?
12015Better how? 12015 Billie, there is no regret, no doubt any more?"
12015But I confess I am all at sea just now; where are we?
12015But I thought you belonged to the Le Gaires of Louisiana?
12015But is it hard to believe?
12015But the uniform?
12015But what have you here-- a Yankee?
12015But what will you tell them?
12015But where was the guard then?
12015But who was he? 12015 But why impossible?"
12015But, Billie,he urged earnestly,"what can have occurred to make this sudden change in you?
12015But, after all, is n''t it a little easier because-- you like me?
12015But-- but you are sure he is not seriously hurt?
12015By Gad, Bell, this fellow is a disgrace to the uniform-- you know what he did?
12015By going away, you mean? 12015 By the way, Sergeant,"I called after him,"did you have a guard posted in the upper hall here this morning?"
12015Can you find your way back down the ravine to our lines, my lad?
12015Captain Bell, is n''t it? 12015 Captain Bell,"I asked,"I presume you have some acquaintance with the duelling code?"
12015Captain Le Gaire, is it not? 12015 Captain Le Gaire,"and she was upon her feet,"do you venture to address such language to me?
12015Certainly not; why should I?
12015Come, Billie,I urged,"what is the use of keeping up this game?"
12015Could I have done otherwise?
12015Dear, do you suppose I would dare this if I doubted you?--if I did not believe your heart was mine?
12015Did Le Gaire tell you to make this proposition?
12015Did Miles say I was an expert with the sabre?
12015Did he answer you?
12015Did n''t the judge tell you?
12015Did they come, sir? 12015 Did they send you to me to find out?"
12015Did you belong around here?
12015Did you speak to him?
12015Did-- did Major Hardy truly second you?
12015Did-- did you hear-- everything?
12015Do I? 12015 Do n''t exactly admire my color of uniform, do you?"
12015Do n''t know? 12015 Do n''t you care, or do n''t you realize what this means?
12015Do n''t you intend to tell me?
12015Do these words seem cruel, unjust?
12015Do we cross the bridge?
12015Do you care to know mine?
12015Do you expect to capture the house single- handed?
12015Do you know we have a division of troops within bugle call?
12015Do you make war on women?
12015Do you mean that?
12015Do you mean to question Captain Le Gaire''s courage, sir?
12015Do you mean to say Le Gaire has never heard of him?
12015Do you not suppose I regret that enough already?
12015Do you question that?
12015Do you think so? 12015 Do?
12015Does n''t it look like it?
12015Does that mean you are still angry?
12015For how long?
12015From H troop, are you not?
12015From those upper windows did you see any sign of troops down in the ravine?
12015Galesworth, did you say? 12015 Go away?"
12015Good; when?
12015Had Le Gaire no enemies?
12015Halter strap on it?
12015Harder to aid me?
12015Has he made that claim?
12015Have n''t you ever learned what parole means? 12015 Have you found me to be a nervous girl, full of whims?"
12015Have you found my girl?
12015He got away?
12015He is a duellist then?
12015How came he to move without orders?
12015How can I help myself?
12015How could I have made-- who are you anyhow?
12015How could I think that?
12015How did you discover the deception?
12015How did you hear? 12015 How do you figure that out?"
12015How far to the south?
12015How long have you boys been stationed here?
12015How many men will you require?
12015How yo''goin''to git dar?
12015How-- how old was he?
12015I am bound to learn sometime-- wouldn''t you rather tell me yourself?
12015I guess so-- why?
12015I owe you that, do I not, wearing your colors?
12015I was in the midst of a girl''s dream,she said slowly,"from which I have awakened-- won''t you release me, Captain Le Gaire?"
12015I wonder-- will you continue your good wishes after hearing my story?
12015I would rather you would; do n''t you think I ought to know?
12015I-- know; but why are you here? 12015 I?
12015I?
12015Indeed,carelessly,"to what?"
12015Into our lines, sir? 12015 Is it then so easy for you?"
12015Is that why you have pressed me so to assent to this hurried arrangement?
12015Is that your revolver lying there?
12015Is the rest of the way hard?
12015Is there no other way out?
12015Is this the Hardy house-- Johnston''s headquarters?
12015Is-- is Lieutenant Galesworth an expert with the sabre?
12015Is-- is it Captain Le Gaire?
12015It is all love for me?
12015It-- it is not a military affair then?
12015Leaving your prisoners?
12015Lieutenant Galesworth, what is the meaning of all this? 12015 Lieutenant Galesworth?"
12015Major Hardy told me how you were feeling; that he could do nothing for you--"Did he understand I wished to confer with you?
12015Major, did you tell your daughter why you could not carry that information to your own people?--that you considered yourself a parolled prisoner?
12015Major, what do you mean to do? 12015 Major,"I said, every nerve braced for conflict,"with your permission I am going in there and have a talk with your daughter-- may I?"
12015May I hope ever to meet you again?
12015May I not, in return, be told your name?
12015May I wear this in token of your good wishes?
12015Miss Hardy,I asked soberly,"are you aware that your father refused to act for Captain Le Gaire, but went to the field as my second?"
12015Miss Hardy,I said soberly,"what use is there for us to play at cross- purposes?
12015Miss Hardy,and my eyes met hers,"has it ever occurred to you that you may be the one in the wrong, the one mistaken?
12015My word? 12015 No,"impatiently,"I have eaten twice to- day-- what I want to know is what has become of that fellow who was here this morning?"
12015No-- what was there to explain?
12015No; which aide? 12015 Nor at the stables?"
12015Nor of the man you mistook for a guard?
12015Not a rat here, that we saw; did we, Joe?
12015Not far enough, is it, Parker?
12015Not so bad, hey, Galesworth?
12015Now you will go away, wo n''t you?
12015Now?
12015Of what rank?
12015Oh, Billie, are you so anxious as that for me to get safely away?
12015Oh, I see-- what has become of Sam?
12015Oh, I see; well, will you go along as far as the end of the ravine?
12015Oh, yes; hope he has as good luck there-- got them all?
12015Oh; was it you who had that struggle with the horse? 12015 On what terms?"
12015Or a traitress to the South?
12015Out of the house, you mean?
12015Pull up,I said;"do you think I''m playing with you?"
12015Revenge, was n''t it?
12015Room empty when you came?
12015Shall I not call in your father, and ask him to relate the story?
12015Shall I not wait here a few moments until you are across the road?
12015So that''s the trouble? 12015 So you recognize me, then?"
12015Speaking with short, crisp sentences,she interrupted,"and wearing a heavy beard?"
12015Sure,grinning,"and what then?"
12015Surely you do not suppose I would think less of you for your loyalty?
12015Surely you would not force me against my will, Captain Le Gaire? 12015 Tell me, do you know the points of the compass?"
12015That''s all right, of course; I understand what brought you here, but where is that fellow you had with you?
12015The fellow is armed, is he not; and I shall need to take some one along with me?
12015The house fairly quakes; is it a battle?
12015The lieutenant?
12015The man yonder?
12015The plan of attack?--the orders sent me?
12015Then hurry here; I want to ask you just one question for your daughter''s sake: Were you my second in the duel this morning?
12015Then it was for me?--because you cared?
12015Then may I ride that far with you?
12015Then obey my orders; is that your room yonder?
12015Then what shall I call him?
12015Then what was it?
12015Then where is he now?
12015Then why do n''t you try it? 12015 Then you have seen Le Gaire since-- is that so?"
12015Then you would show mercy even to a Yankee spy?
12015Then-- then will you permit my father to come to me?
12015There are no guards down here?
12015There is no absolute hour set?
12015They have gone forward then?
12015This, I believe, was the Hardy plantation?
12015To my question-- have you seen Le Gaire since?
12015Very well, I accept; I presume my man Is the challenged party?
12015Very well, gentlemen, are you ready?
12015Was not that Captain Le Gaire''s idea?
12015Was that bar across the outer door there then?
12015Was that it? 12015 We shall part as friends?"
12015Well, are you going to tell me? 12015 Well, is n''t that information sufficient?"
12015Well, what have you got to say?
12015Well, what of it? 12015 Well,"I asked,"now what is it you wish to say?"
12015Well,he burst forth at last,"are you satisfied, sir?"
12015Were you a slave?
12015Were you aware that any of our men had been up stairs since last evening?
12015Were you hanging there all that time-- even before the lieutenant left?
12015Were you not on the balcony alone, talking together?
12015What did Ragan answer?
12015What do you expect me to do-- sit here all night?
12015What do you mean? 12015 What do you mean?
12015What does all this mean, Ross? 12015 What does all this mean?"
12015What does this all mean? 12015 What force have you?"
12015What guard have they?
12015What guard?
12015What is all that firing?
12015What is all this, gentlemen? 12015 What is it you are trying to say, man?"
12015What is it, Billie?
12015What is it, Kent?
12015What is it, my man?
12015What is it? 12015 What is it?"
12015What is it?
12015What is it?
12015What is the explanation, sir? 12015 What is there to prevent?
12015What is your name, my boy?
12015What law?
12015What made you do it?
12015What the devil is the trouble, my boy? 12015 What troops have you?"
12015What was he after?
12015What was it? 12015 What was that?"
12015What were you sneaking about there in the dark for then?
12015What will hold me?--your eyes?--the mere threat of your lips?
12015What''s the best way to the house, sentry?
12015What''s the sergeant doing?
12015What''s the trouble out here, Sims?
12015What''s the trouble? 12015 What-- what are you doing?
12015What?
12015When did Burke go down cellar?
12015When? 12015 Where are the prisoners, Sergeant?"
12015Where is the guide?
12015Where is the powder and ball?
12015Where is the sergeant?
12015Where was he stationed?
12015Where?
12015Who are here besides Le Gaire and your father?
12015Who are they?
12015Who are you?
12015Who are you?
12015Who are you?
12015Who is the fellow travelling with you?
12015Who the devil are you then?
12015Who the devil are you?
12015Who the hell are you?
12015Who''s coming?
12015Who-- who are those men?
12015Who-- who are you? 12015 Who?"
12015Who?
12015Why did n''t you tell me, papa? 12015 Why did you think I took you for Billie?"
12015Why do you ask?--for military reasons?
12015Why do you say persecuted?
12015Why do you suspect that, Miss Willifred? 12015 Why do you want to know?"
12015Why does he accept leave then, if he is needed here?
12015Why go over that unfortunate occurrence?
12015Why have you come here? 12015 Why not Major Hardy?"
12015Why say that to me?
12015Why, good God, girl, do you realize what you are saying?
12015Why, of course not; why should I be?
12015Why, that was what you called me, was n''t it? 12015 Why, what does all this mean?
12015Why? 12015 Will that plan work?"
12015Will they never come to help us?
12015Will you come up here, Miss Billie?
12015Will you consent to say that?
12015Will you delay action a few moments, and send Captain Le Gaire to me? 12015 Will you fight me?"
12015Will you help me search?
12015Will you show us the way?
12015Will you tell me-- has he been here?
12015Without my permission?
12015Would you hold me to a promise I regret having made? 12015 Would you marry me against my wish?"
12015Would you mind if I call Miles, and then you can tell your story to both of us?
12015Would you permit me to go across to my father?
12015Would-- would you gentlemen mind my consulting Captain Le Gaire again?
12015Yankees?
12015Yes,I answered wearily, clinging to her hand,"and-- and you are going now?
12015Yes,I said,"and we are in midst of war-- in this are we yet enemies?"
12015Yes-- but for how long?
12015Yes-- but have you no preference as to captors?
12015Yet later-- when the war ends?
12015Yo''see de forked tree dar on de lef''?
12015Yonder-- where?
12015You are willing to do this for me?
12015You believe in Fate?
12015You can give no description? 12015 You do n''t know?
12015You do not wonder?
12015You explained nothing?
12015You insist?
12015You know Captain Le Gaire has returned?
12015You live in this neighborhood?
12015You mean Le Gaire?
12015You mean after what you said to me last night? 12015 You mean duelling?"
12015You mean helping me?
12015You mean it?
12015You mean to remain here, defending the house?
12015You mean to throw me down? 12015 You mean you could not trust me?"
12015You offer no others?
12015You overheard what was said?
12015You poor boy, do you really think that? 12015 You positively mean this?"
12015You promise that first?
12015You refuse to act for me?
12015You saw nothing more of him?
12015You thought what?
12015You will go back, will you not?
12015You will not even shake hands?
12015You would give me a lesson?
12015You-- you are not going to hurt them?
12015You-- you are not going to kill any one?
12015You-- you are not hurt, Lieutenant Galesworth?
12015You-- you call me what? 12015 You-- you do n''t suppose I sent her?"
12015You-- you forced him to accept pistols?
12015You-- you heard what was said in there?
12015You-- you mean to try?
12015You--he stammered,"can you mean Billie?"
12015Your daughter, sir?
12015A Federal officer in full uniform?
12015A little affair?"
12015A scouting party?"
12015After my account of the duel and Le Gaire''s escape I stopped to ask,"Miss Billie, do you believe all this?"
12015After that we are strangers; do you accept my terms?"
12015Ai n''t that about the size of it, boys?"
12015Ai n''t that right, Murphy?"
12015Ai n''t that the way of it, Talbot?"
12015Am I altogether to blame?"
12015Am I obliged to account for all my actions to every one I meet?"
12015An aide shall deliver them at Three Corners in an hour-- will that be too early?"
12015An''where is he now?"
12015And could I remain still, and permit her to be thus ruthlessly sacrificed?
12015And do you think I will ever stand for it?
12015And is that all?"
12015And then again-- did I really have a choice?
12015And would she ever forgive me for listening?
12015And you?--how came you there?"
12015Anything happened in there?"
12015Apparently we were indistinguishable from where he stood, for he called out,"Is there any one alive here?"
12015Are you acquainted with the house?"
12015Are you married?"
12015Are you not willing to hear me say''I love you''?"
12015Are you one of the Mobile Athertons?"
12015Are you ready?"
12015Are you the bearer of a message?"
12015Because I have aided you to escape capture, do you conclude I am a fool?"
12015Besides, it was the girl who counted, who must say the final word-- why should I hesitate for the sake of Le Gaire?
12015Beyond doubt the task might be accomplished-- but what was below?
12015Billie might have a chance, and I know no one else who would-- do you?
12015But how could he have been killed?
12015But how was it possible to get away unobserved?
12015But would she come to me?
12015But you know I mean to do it, to hold you here; you realize I am terribly in earnest?"
12015By leaving you to be coerced?"
12015By the way, Lieutenant, you shoot equally well with either hand, I believe?
12015By the way, who is the best man to send back?"
12015By what means could she have left the house?
12015CHAPTER XII AN ATTEMPT AT ESCAPE The seriousness of my situation was clearly apparent, yet what could I do in order to save myself?
12015Can I escape in any manner through the house?"
12015Can you find water?"
12015Can you mean Captain Le Gaire?"
12015Can you not realize my position if you are discovered here?
12015Captain Le Gaire, are you crazy?"
12015Come now, which shall it be?"
12015Come, stand up to it; this is better than getting killed, is n''t it?
12015Conroy, have you seen anything of a young lady since you came up here?"
12015Could Chambers hold them?
12015Could I be happy under those conditions?
12015Could I have deceived myself so completely?
12015Could I have mistaken everything?
12015Could I help her in any way?
12015Could I venture to thrust myself in?
12015Could Le Gaire have poisoned her mind against me with some ingenious lie?
12015Could he check that victorious onrush of blue-- those men who had fought their way five bloody miles since daybreak?
12015Could it be possible the girl would take my life?
12015Could she have made such a choice if she truly loved me?
12015Could something have occurred of which I knew nothing?
12015Damn you, are you totally devoid of all sense of personal honor?"
12015Did Hardy know, or suspect more than he had already told?
12015Did I make a mistake, sir?"
12015Did he get away?"
12015Did n''t they come in?"
12015Did our boys get here?"
12015Did that mysterious figure, attired in our uniform, have anything to do with her disappearance?
12015Did these hard words represent her true purpose, or were they merely wrung out of her by stress of circumstance?
12015Did you know him?"
12015Did you know she was engaged to Captain Le Gaire?"
12015Did you see the fellow''s face?"
12015Did you suppose I would consent to remain alone long?"
12015Did you suppose otherwise?
12015Do n''t remember me, do you?"
12015Do you begin to see things?--know that man over there?"
12015Do you both understand?"
12015Do you care for me less because I confess this?"
12015Do you even suspect who the fellow is?"
12015Do you imagine I''m going to let you go for the sake of a damned Yankee?"
12015Do you imagine your father would have taken my part if I had uttered one word reflecting upon you?"
12015Do you know what I mean to do?"
12015Do you know what they were gathered here for?"
12015Do you mean so you might come here to me?"
12015Do you mean to say you did n''t know it?"
12015Do you mean to say you rode with him alone all night, and took breakfast with him this morning, without even learning his name?"
12015Do you not think you have persecuted me quite long enough?"
12015Do you suppose I do n''t know what has changed your mind so suddenly?
12015Do you suppose I intend permitting him to thus influence you against me, when I am where I can not defend myself?"
12015Do you suppose that is pleasant?"
12015Do you think I am blind?
12015Do you think I would demean myself by lying-- to a Yank?
12015Do you understand?"
12015Do you want me to gag you, or will you keep still?"
12015Even this slight movement caused me to clinch my teeth in agony, and she cried out,"You are hurt?
12015Forget the uniform, this sectional war, and let us simply be man and woman-- can you not?"
12015From the front?
12015Good God, Le Gaire, are n''t you even a soldier?"
12015Had Billie told us a false story, or had her prisoner, by some magical means, escaped?
12015Had I indeed gone too far, been too stern and abrupt?
12015Had she left voluntarily, inspired by some wild hope of service to the South?
12015Has Le Gaire done something which will prevent my acting in his behalf?"
12015Has any one come up these steps?"
12015Have I correctly presented the case, Major Atherton?"
12015Have I ever told you I did not care for Captain Le Gaire, or that I loved you?"
12015Have you done something to anger her?"
12015Have you forgotten our engagement already?"
12015Have-- have you killed him?"
12015He reminded you of no one you had ever seen?"
12015Help me up, will you?"
12015Here, can you sit up?
12015How comes he here?"
12015How could I imagine he would run without cause?
12015How did he ever succeed in getting to Billie?
12015How did it happen?"
12015How did you ever gain a commission?
12015How did you fare along your side of the house?"
12015How do you dare to come here and face me, after all that has occurred?"
12015How is the ammunition?"
12015How long have you been here?"
12015How old are you?"
12015How was I to get down those smoothly plastered walls-- and back again, if necessary?
12015How will you protect your daughter?"
12015Hunting for some one?"
12015I answered, and barely waiting the sound of my voice, he went on:"You have scouted over this country?"
12015I asked, unable to restrain myself,"you do not ask why?
12015I asked,"or can you suggest any better way?"
12015I have acted as a gentleman, have I not, ever since I understood?"
12015I hesitated, but why should I?
12015I prefer them to think this is purely a military affair, do n''t you?"
12015I touched Le Gaire on the shoulder, and whispered in his ear:"How much farther is it?"
12015I''ve seen that sorter thing before; but who the hell ever hit him?"
12015If I did, would it be of any use?
12015If I understand the man the very first thing he will do will be to poison your mind against me--""He?
12015If she had actually believed all the man had told her, it must have proven a shock, yet how could I now best counteract his story?
12015If she had not left where could she remain concealed?
12015If so would the Hardy house be caught in the maelstrom of retreat?
12015If this be your manner before marriage, what brand of brutality could I expect after?"
12015If you are so wild to capture this spy why do n''t you make the rounds of the pickets instead of remaining here and quarrelling with me?
12015If you loved him would you be standing here even to say a word of farewell?
12015In that room?"
12015In what way?"
12015Is Colonel O''Neil waiting?
12015Is he a prisoner?"
12015Is it because you imagine the man may be here?"
12015Is it necessary for me to repeat what he said?"
12015Is n''t it even better than dreaming an impossible dream?"
12015Is n''t that worth while?
12015Is there something concealed, something I do not know?"
12015Is this Yank anything to you?"
12015Is this Yank anything to you?"
12015Is this conceit, or determination?"
12015Is this sufficiently clear?"
12015Is this the manner in which you propose treating me after marriage?"
12015Is-- is he dead?"
12015It might be possible even for my little squad to hold this advance position until reinforcements arrived, but what could be done with the prisoners?
12015It''s either this Galesworth or somebody else-- now who is it?"
12015Le Gaire had come to Billie wounded-- but how?
12015Le Gaire?
12015Lieutenant Galesworth, do you not owe this to me?"
12015Lieutenant Galesworth, have you looked long enough?"
12015Lieutenant Galesworth, you did not encounter Captain Le Gaire alive in the hall?"
12015Like a shot out of the night broke in a voice:"Billie, who is that you have with you?"
12015Live?
12015Major, when did you see Billie last?"
12015May I ask if you are Major Hardy''s daughter?"
12015May I kiss you?"
12015May I not tell you?"
12015Much hurt yourself?"
12015Must I sacrifice these men who had already fought so desperately?
12015Need we discuss this further?"
12015Now at the last moment, with all the fellows waiting in the next room?"
12015Now see here-- did Beauregard let out any facts?"
12015Now what do you propose doing?"
12015Now what do you propose doing?"
12015Now will you do exactly as I say?"
12015Now you must simply wait until I say go, and then you will go; wo n''t you?"
12015Of course the lady is telling the truth, but where did that buck ever get one o''our uniforms?
12015Oh, in the attack; yet-- yet you still hold the house, do you not?"
12015One was a major by the name of Hardy-- do you know him?"
12015Or must I hunt for myself?"
12015Others stand ready to go the moment the word is spoken, but what possibility is there of success, that any volunteer could get through alive?"
12015Please wo n''t you take off your hat, just for a minute?"
12015Say, Major, what does all this mean?"
12015See, here is the ribbon; will you take it?"
12015Several voices asked,"What does this mean?"
12015Shall I drive?"
12015Shall I send for Miss Hardy to corroborate whatever I may say?"
12015Shall I tell it to you now, or wait?
12015Shall I tell you what I am doing here?"
12015Shall I tell you what message I sent back?"
12015She had said he was hacking at the wood with a knife; could he have cut a hole through sufficiently large to permit of his lifting the bar?
12015Should I expose Billie to almost certain death?
12015Should I run from the fight like a coward, sneak away in the night, leaving her to be sacrificed?
12015Should I wait, or withdraw my little force, at least as far as the shelter of the ravine?
12015Shud Oi hay''the byes let drive?"
12015Still angry?
12015Sudden anger at the trick banished every other feeling; yet what could I do?
12015Suddenly she asked,"Do you sometimes tell falsehoods?"
12015Surely you are not in earnest?"
12015Surely you will not urge me to marry one I do not love?"
12015Surely, Judge, you do not suppose I would ever harbor one of the enemy?
12015That is all, is it not?"
12015The Confederate captain lying in yonder on the bed?"
12015The apparent carelessness of the girl puzzled me-- why should she be so completely at her ease in this adventure?
12015The fact is, I rather like you, Lieutenant-- eh, what is the name?
12015The fellow here was a Yank-- and you did n''t know it?"
12015The simple action caused my heart to leap to my throat-- could it be the lady played a part, her coldness to me intended to deceive others?
12015Then you do not order me to take you; you merely ask if I will?"
12015Then you were in command here?"
12015There is a corporal here, is n''t there?"
12015They had some right, while you have none, absolutely none, Lieutenant Galesworth-- have you?"
12015This knowledge prompted me to ask,"Which way is the river?"
12015Through personal interest in me?
12015Through some wild impulse of the moment?
12015To- night?"
12015W-- what do you want?"
12015Was I doing right?
12015Was I justified in this course of action?
12015Was not that thoughtful of them?"
12015Was she doing for me more than she would have done for another under similar circumstances?
12015Was there more than a mere impulse behind the action?
12015Was there not, back of all, a feeling almost of friendship?"
12015Was this act merely the result of womanly sympathy?
12015We are going to part as friends, are we not?
12015We drove them, did n''t we?"
12015Well, I helped Billie Hardy out that time, did n''t I?
12015Well, what is it?"
12015Were the Confederates being forced back?
12015Were you goin''in, sir?"
12015Were you hurt, Galesworth?"
12015Were you in battle?"
12015Were you in the Confederate service?
12015What are these buildings just ahead of us?"
12015What are you going to do?"
12015What are you trying to do, Atherton,--get to the rear of the Yanks?"
12015What brings you here, Gerald?
12015What can I do, Robert?
12015What cause had I given her for treating me with such open contempt?
12015What could I say?
12015What could be done with them now, at this late hour, the house already a fortress, the enemy in evidence everywhere?
12015What could have occurred?
12015What could this mean?
12015What could this signify?
12015What did they talk about?"
12015What did you want, Foster?"
12015What do you do best-- shoot or fence?"
12015What do you ever suppose he could''a''been doin''down here?"
12015What do you make out of it, Galesworth?"
12015What do you mean?"
12015What do you propose doing with my father and Captain Le Gaire?"
12015What do you propose to do?"
12015What do you say, Galesworth?"
12015What do you say-- shall we hold on, hoping?"
12015What else could I think, but that you had escaped into the Confederate lines with the news?"
12015What force?"
12015What girl?"
12015What had occurred here during that minute or two?
12015What have you done with Miss Hardy?"
12015What in the name of Heaven had gained possession of the girl?
12015What infernal lie had been told her?
12015What influence have you got over the girl?"
12015What insult?"
12015What is all this?"
12015What is that, Miles?
12015What is the word?"
12015What now?"
12015What ought I to do?
12015What ought I to say?
12015What shall I do to help-- to help Gerald?"
12015What shall I do?"
12015What should I do?
12015What was it you desired to know?"
12015What was it you wished to know?"
12015What was my most important duty-- that which I owed the Federal army, or that I owed to this girl?
12015What''s going on here?
12015What''s happened ter Burke, sir?"
12015What''s happening?"
12015What''s next, sir?"
12015What''s this?"
12015What-- what Captain Le Gaire would say?"
12015When are you going to ride on?"
12015When will Chambers be up?"
12015Where are the papers?"
12015Where are they?"
12015Where can, we be alone, Billie?"
12015Where could she have hidden?
12015Where did you come from?
12015Where did you discover this fellow?"
12015Where has she gone?"
12015Where is he?"
12015Where is the fellow?
12015Where is the negro?"
12015Where is their reserve?
12015Where now?"
12015Where then?
12015Where were you going in such a hurry?"
12015Where were you going?"
12015Where will we find Johnston?"
12015Which is the man?--this one?
12015Who are these fellows?"
12015Who are you?"
12015Who commands this last squad?"
12015Who could have had a motive?"
12015Who could that be?"
12015Who did it?"
12015Who do you reckon the sucker is?"
12015Who else could it be?
12015Who is the fellow?"
12015Who is the man?"
12015Who seconds you?"
12015Who was he, Miles?
12015Who was he?"
12015Whoever the murderer was, he has either got away, or is hidden on some other floor-- is there an attic?"
12015Whose fault is it?
12015Why believe Le Gaire''s hasty lie, and refuse me even a hearing?
12015Why bring this all up again?"
12015Why did father leave the house without me?"
12015Why did n''t you explain that Lieutenant Galesworth was not to blame?"
12015Why do you say''Billie''?"
12015Why had she done this?
12015Why have you not listened to them?"
12015Why is it not possible for one to know you?"
12015Why should I be otherwise?
12015Why should I care if you have that?
12015Why should she think me capable of a dastardly act?
12015Why, indeed, had she thus endeavored to conceal herself from both her father and myself?
12015Why?
12015Why?"
12015Why?"
12015Will you act for the gentleman?"
12015Will you do as I say?"
12015Will you lift him up so I can see the face?"
12015Will you sit down and listen?
12015Will you tell me all,--how you came to protect Le Gaire, and what it was he told you?"
12015With the revolver in your belt?"
12015Wo n''t you sit down while I talk?"
12015Would Major Hardy permit it if he knew?--if the entire situation was explained to him?
12015Would he venture an attack alone, or ride on and report me to the guard?
12015Would it inconvenience you, Judge, if I made your house my headquarters for the night?"
12015Would she actually shoot me down?
12015Would she give me the opportunity of escape?
12015Would she shoot?
12015Would the sense of duty to her cause actually induce her to fire at me?
12015Would you like to know what conclusion I came to?"
12015Would you wish me to be riding the country at night with a strange woman?"
12015You are a man, Major Hardy, and must know men-- is Le Gaire the kind you would want your daughter to marry?"
12015You are on the other side, are you not?"
12015You came to say good- bye?"
12015You can not tell me you desired to marry Captain Le Gaire-- can you?"
12015You do not believe me a silly girl?"
12015You have not killed any one?"
12015You mean my parole?"
12015You mean that I consented to meet Le Gaire?"
12015You mean the sergeant?
12015You order the sergeant to open that door-- why do you not open it yourself?"
12015You recall the offer of service made us last night, Major?"
12015You sent for me?"
12015You understand?"
12015You will believe this?"
12015You will believe what I say?"
12015You will listen, will you not?"
12015You''re hiding something; what is it?
12015Your adherence to the Confederacy?
12015Your father, the major, is well?"
12015Your pride of the South?
12015do you mean you wo n''t keep your word?"
12015he asked weakly,"the lieutenant?"
12015he asked with apparent carelessness,"along the fence there?"
12015how compel?
12015if he could send these-- why not more?
12015not that pretty girl back in there?"
12015who comes?"
6128''Is it Union ye are? 6128 ''Where is it?''
6128Alford, Alford,she cried, entreatingly,"why do you look so stern?
6128Alford, can I help it?
6128Alford, what_ is_ the matter?
6128Alford, you will take me?
6128Alford,exclaimed his aunt,"could you make no better return for my gift than to frighten me out of my wits?"
6128Alford,she said, sadly,"why did you not let me die?"
6128Am I not here safe and sound?
6128An''de hossifer is a Linkum man? 6128 And do I count for so little, Alford?"
6128And how much time with us?
6128And will you come with her?
6128And you feel that you can not remain here, Alford?
6128And you, Alford?
6128Are not this scene and hour perfect? 6128 Are you in favor of Lincoln''s men or the Confederates?"
6128Are you keeping your promise to live?
6128Aunt,he gasped,"I''m not too late?"
6128But have n''t you a wife and children?
6128But you, Alford?
6128But,queried the negro,"how you wear''Federate coat and hat?"
6128Colonel Graham,he said,"shall I surprise you when I say physicians are very fallible?
6128Could you be so very kind as to induce your father to ask me to make one of your evening quartette as often as possible?
6128Could you soon feel differently?
6128Could-- could you not have fulfilled your trust in some other way?
6128Do n''t I see you as you are, Grace?
6128Do n''t you see that for papa''s sake, for my own, as well as yours, I must go? 6128 Do you mean that I am worse than the weather which gives papa the horrors, and Mrs. Mayburn the rheumatism?"
6128Do you not think it very beautiful? 6128 Does he look and act like a man who''hid a secret sorrow''?"
6128Does your wound trouble you to- night, papa?
6128Grace, dear Grace,he faltered, hoarsely,"can you not bear this sorrow also for my sake?"
6128Grace, what do you say to all this?
6128Grace,he faltered, hesitatingly,"would you mind kissing an old, old man?
6128Graham, what does this mean?
6128Graham,he murmured feebly--"Graham, is that you?"
6128Have I earned the indulgence of a glance at your books?
6128Have we been abroad ever since?
6128Have you broached this subject to her father and my aunt?
6128Have you made only one friend since you became our neighbor?
6128Hilda,at last she moaned,"little Hilda, shall poor old grandma ever see our baby again?"
6128How about your heart?
6128How can a man do otherwise?
6128How comes it that_ you_ did not fall in love with one whom you admire so much? 6128 How could you, when you were asleep?"
6128How did Grace appear?
6128How else can I look? 6128 How is it that you are so versed in the mysteries of the feminine soul?"
6128How is it, then, Mr. Graham, that you can leave your aunt for months of travel?
6128How then?
6128Huey, are you ready?
6128I say, Graham, where did you learn to ride?
6128I say, Graham,cried Hilland''s voice,"what scrape are you in, that you have drawn such a crowd?"
6128Indeed, was I so imperious in old times?
6128Indeed,she replied;"did last evening seem an age to you?"
6128Intend to die?
6128Is enthusiasm one of your traits?
6128Is fishing, then, one of your ruling passions?
6128Is n''t that true of every woman?
6128Is that the best you can say, Alford?
6128Is your name Graham?
6128It depends upon what?
6128It was just becoming serious, eh?
6128Marry her-- as she now is?
6128Marry you?
6128Miss Grace,he said at last, and there was a tinge of reproach in his voice,"where are you?
6128Mr. Graham,said Grace, after a pause in their talk,"have you seen your aunt since your return?"
6128My mind?
6128Not even your own?
6128Not the major? 6128 Now long since?"
6128Oh, Alford, what have you done?
6128Oh, aunt, she will live?
6128Should the day prove a long, dismal, rainy one,Graham ventured,"may I not come over and help entertain your father?"
6128So you intend to die, Grace?
6128The major?
6128Then not like any one else you know?
6128Was not the world wide enough for me to escape seeing that face?
6128Was there ever a nobler- looking man?
6128Was-- was I like that when-- when he married me?
6128Well, Huey,he said,"in providing for the horse you have attended to the main business, but what are we going to do?"
6128Were you looking at the sunset, Grace?
6128What are you saying amen to?--that I''m not good?
6128What did you mean by asking me,''Could you soon feel differently?''
6128What do you know about our being sufficient for our- selves, I''d like to ask?
6128What do you mean by more than your blessing?
6128What do you propose to do?
6128What do_ you_ propose to do?
6128What evil spirit drove you into the wilderness and made you the champion tramp of the country? 6128 What faith can I instil except the one I have?
6128What followed that blessed shell?
6128What if he should place me under arrest?
6128What is it, Grace?
6128What is it?
6128What is the matter with your husband''s friend?
6128What kept you?
6128What right have you to preach caution,continued Hilland,"when you went far enough to be struck by half a dozen bullets?"
6128What the divil du ye want?
6128What, Firebrand?
6128What,he asked himself every hour in the day,"will be the effect of an experience like this on such a woman?
6128When is she to be married?
6128Where is the gentleman? 6128 Where''s your colonel?"
6128Where, Hilland?
6128Who brought the note?
6128Why are you not sleeping?
6128Why did n''t they have their names engraved together?
6128Why did you not decide not to be cold last night?
6128Why did you not speak of it?
6128Why do you not keep the likeness?
6128Why not?
6128Why not?
6128Why should I go there? 6128 Why should I not take a philosophical view of the affair?
6128Why should I worry about it?
6128Why, Hilland, what''s the matter?
6128Will nothing ever lay your theological ghosts?
6128Will you choose my work for me?
6128Will you not be my friend, also?
6128Wo n''t you read the description to us this evening? 6128 Wo n''t you shake hands as a further reward?"
6128Yes, Graham,cried Hilland, springing to his feet;"what next?"
6128You are a true Southern girl?
6128You are still willing, however, to permit me to think for you, to guide you? 6128 You have no fear?"
6128You know all, then?
6128You know what I mean?
6128You terrify_ me_, and can you think that a weak, dying woman can look upon you as you now appear?
6128You think, then, that even your influence can not keep him from the field?
6128You will write to me often?
6128You, my child?
6128''How did you manage it?''
6128''My dear,''he will say severely,''is this paid for?''
6128''Would you kill a Union man?''"
6128A slow, deep flush overspread her face and even her neck as she faltered:"And-- and-- has no one else been with me but Jinny?"
6128After all, what was any political squabble compared with the fact that Grace had promised to marry him in June?
6128Alford, was there no chance-- no chance at all of saving him?"
6128All that he knew was that she was silent for a moment or two, and then she asked quietly,"Is Mr. Warren Hilland an acquaintance of yours?"
6128Am I a sentimental boy, that you should talk to me in this way?
6128Am I not right, Grace?"
6128Am I not under your care?"
6128Am I such a very undesirable party?"
6128And I, Grace-- what else can I do?
6128And still he clung to his old philosophy, muttering,"If this be true, why will not my life become as needful to her?"
6128And yet why should I use such a term when the best I can say is that a continent is my home?
6128And yet, why is he so pale?"
6128Are you really sincere in saying that such a horse as this adds to your chances of safety?"
6128At last Hilland closed with the words,"I say, Graham, are you asleep?"
6128At last he asked,"How long would she maintain that position?"
6128At last she said hastily,"Go"Listening at the door, he heard Grace ask, a few moments later, in a faint voice,"What has happened?''"
6128But as the peril is so great had I not better fly at once?"
6128But confound it all, why did Meade let Lee escape?
6128But how can I leave papa?"
6128But how could he meet Grace again?
6128But let me have the truth: have I lost that child forever?"
6128But what have I brought you but pain and deep anxiety?
6128But what to him?
6128But what''s the use of looking at the gloomy side?
6128But why should I?
6128CHAPTER IV WARNING OR INCENTIVE?
6128Can I not admire your paragon to your heart''s content without insisting that she bestow upon me the treasures of her life?
6128Can you not calmly and gradually receive the whole truth?
6128Can you not still promise to live and do your best?"
6128Can you wonder?
6128Could I ride away and you not with me?
6128Could he hope that his presence added to her zest for the occasion?
6128Could it ignore the law of its being, all the long years which had made it what it is, and decide to be some other kind of tree, totally different?
6128Could this sense of beauty become so enlarged that the world would be transfigured,"radiant with purple light"?
6128Did Grace Hilland lay this flattering unction to her soul?
6128Did not de good Lord say:''Suffer de little chillen ter come unter Me''?
6128Did not the men survive?"
6128Did you not see how he would wind in and out among the trees and shrubbery-- how he would take a fence lightly without any floundering?
6128Do n''t you expect ever to marry?"
6128Do n''t you realize what''s going on here?"
6128Do n''t you see things are growing more quiet?
6128Do you imagine that I am going to sit down tamely and shed a few helpless tears if you do me this immeasurable wrong?"
6128Do you know that I am almost jealous?
6128Do you mean to suggest that Grace will break forth like a volcano on some fortuitous man?
6128Do you not comprehend what your death means to_ me_, if not to others?"
6128Do you not see you are asking of me what you say you could not do yourself, although you would, after your own brave, manly fashion?
6128Do you not think you had better retire?"
6128Do you think I''ve been through a hundred battles to fear your insignificance?''
6128Do you think that I forget for a moment that I owe it to you?"
6128Do you think you are doing right by your father in dying?"
6128Does it not remind you of the sunset you saw on the evening when I returned from my first battle?"
6128Does not the thought that you are doing so very much for me and for all who love you bring some solace?"
6128Grace, could n''t you improvise a nice little supper?"
6128Graham laughed as he rose from the table, and asked,"Should I ever venture to lay siege to Miss St. John, would I not have your blessing?"
6128Had he cared for her before, when she was as helpless as a little child?
6128Had not his keen- eyed, analytical friend, after weeks of careful observation, testified to the exceeding worth of the girl of his heart?
6128Had not"music, poetry, and art"dawned in his mind?
6128Had she changed?
6128Had the nephew given his aunt his confidence?
6128Had the phantom crouched before the fire vanished?
6128Hast Thou suffered my Hilda to come unto Thee?
6128Have I given him the wound that shall prove fatal-- him who saved Warren''s life, my own, my reason, and everything that a woman holds dear?"
6128Have I lost my child forever?
6128Have I not done justice to your kin, Grace?"
6128Have I not tried to live?"
6128Have you not remarked it?"
6128He felt an electric thrill in all his nerves; she only noticed the circumstance by saying,"Who is it that is so awkward, you or I?"
6128His eyes lingered on the name so long that his aunt asked:"Why do n''t you look at your gift?"
6128His sword was a shield again, and he shouted,"Is not your name Henry Anderson?"
6128How am I to support the truth that my love is useless, hopeless?"
6128How can I let you go on thus wronging yourself?"
6128How can I live?
6128How could I serve myself in any surer way?
6128How could he reach her, how make himself understood by her, except as some timid, docile creature responds to a caress or a tone?
6128How could she go to him, what could she say to him, in their new relations that seemed so unreal?
6128How happened it that you so soon were_ en rapport_ with Grace?"
6128How is it that I see before me the woman I loved forty- odd years ago?
6128How is it you are here?"
6128How she could live again in any proper sense of the word was beyond her comprehension; and what was bare existence?
6128I say, Graham, I made a good selection in him, did n''t I?"
6128I see that it is useless for us to protest, for when did a man ever give up a chance for speculation?"
6128I should be dumb before questions already asked,''Why should I shrink when other husbands do not?
6128I thought you went to entertain him?"
6128I would do anything in my power to banish your rheumatism and the major''s twinges, but how was it with you both at my age?
6128If I give your cordial good- by to Grace and tell her that you hope soon to see her again, shall I not better carry out your wishes?"
6128If the mysteries of the physical nature so baffle us, who can predict the future of a disordered intellect?
6128In answer to a look of surprise he continued,"Could not your father procure an order that would keep him in the city?
6128In the memory of his little sister you will spare him, will you not?
6128Is it mine still?"
6128Is it pure selfishness on my part to wish to keep you?
6128Is it too early to make one now?"
6128Is my child lost to me forever, or is she in Thy keeping?
6128Is n''t he a beauty?"
6128Is n''t that a picture?
6128Is that sweet image of my Hilda nothing but clay?
6128Is there nothing further for this idol of my heart but horrible corruption?
6128Is your name Grace also?"
6128It rather assumes a larger and more threatening aspect Why do not men think of us poor women before they go to war?"
6128It''s proper to eat under the circumstances, is n''t it?"
6128Jesus, art Thou a Shepherd of the little ones?
6128John?"
6128John?"
6128Markham?"
6128May I take it for a day or two?"
6128Mayburn?"
6128Mayburn?"
6128Mayburn?"
6128Mayburn?"
6128Moreover, why did he avoid looking at her unless there was distinct occasion for his glance?
6128Mr. Graham, if so many new friends are not an embarrassment of riches, will you give me a little niche among them?"
6128Mrs. Mayburn looks as grim as one of your cannon; and Grace, my child, you wo n''t flinch, will you?"
6128My whole being revolts at it; and yet how can I escape from its truth?
6128Nay, more, what would my wife think in her secret heart?''
6128No?
6128Now that we have talked over this little misunderstanding so frankly and rationally, will you not join us at whist to- night?"
6128Oh, if there is a God, why does He not rend the heavens in His haste to stay the black torrents of evil?
6128Oh, shall I become nothing?
6128Oh, why is the world so full of hopeless trouble?"
6128Once she said abruptly,"Alford, you will come and see us often before the campaign opens?
6128One day she asked Graham abruptly,"Do you believe that the human spirit lives on after death?"
6128Pardon me for my bluntness: do you expect to marry Grace, should she become strong and well?"
6128Pearl, my sweet, pure, noble child, is there nothing I can do for you?"
6128Shall I be no more than the decaying tree behind which I crawled when struck down?
6128Shall I have my baby once more?
6128Shall I never see my peerless bride again?
6128Shall the people of the South secede from the Union in consequence of the election of Mr. Lincoln?
6128She bent her head low to hide the tears that were falling fast as she faltered:"Was it wholly self- sacrifice when you married me?"
6128She, equally preoccupied with her one thought, looked at him for a moment in surprise, and then cried,"He has told you-- has written?"
6128Should we expect them to be counteracted in a few short weeks?"
6128Suppose you should fall, what remedy would there be for me?
6128Tears again rushed into the young girl''s eyes as she asked in accents of deepest commiseration:"And will you have to break the news to her?"
6128That will pay for a good many chickens and vegetables, wo n''t it?"
6128The latter asked,"Have you heard from my father and sister since you parted with them?"
6128The materialist had matter in the perfection of breathing outline, but where was the woman he loved?
6128The only real question in my mind is, Are you willing to make the sacrifice and take the risks?
6128Then abruptly,"Do you hold to our old views that this life ends all?"
6128Therefore why might he not hope?
6128To know?
6128Warren, Warren, ca n''t you live for Grace''s sake?"
6128Was he the cool, philosophical lover that he would have her think?
6128Was it at her mother''s face, or something beyond?
6128Was it merely the prospect of a day of pleasure in the woods?
6128Was it suggested by the flavor of the cakes?
6128Was it the moonlight that made him look so very pale?
6128Was my mother''s faith true?
6128Was nature but a mechanism after whose laws he had been groping like an anatomist who finds in the godlike form bone and tissue merely?
6128Were they Confederates or National?
6128What am I but a mere semblance of a woman?
6128What am I?
6128What chance would you have in darkness?
6128What could be more mad and useless than this war?
6128What could he do?
6128What did it mean?
6128What else has she marked?"
6128What ground had Emerson for saying that these same mornings and evenings might be filled with"varied enchantments"?
6128What has happened?"
6128What have I had to laugh about?"
6128What is there for me, what for them, but to grow lonelier and sadder every day?
6128What is there left of me but a shadow?
6128What remedy is there for a sorrow like hers?"
6128What right have I to marry Grace Hilland without her consent?
6128What right have you to die and bring to me the blackness of despair?
6128What signify my fancies of last evening?
6128What sweeter incense is ever offered to a woman?
6128What the devil makes you so headlong in a fight-- you that are usually so cool and self- controlled?"
6128What was Grace?--what becoming?
6128What was a pale, thin, white- haired woman to them?
6128What was that paragraph from Emerson that once struck me so forcibly?
6128What was the cause of her unaffected delight?
6128What will you do next?"
6128What would be said of me here?
6128What would n''t I do for Missy Rita?
6128What would your brave father think, though he might acquiesce?
6128What yez doin''here, thin, widut a uniform?''
6128What''s yer gwine ter do?"
6128When can I see him?"
6128When could she have provided these things so thoughtfully?
6128When would the interminable night pass?
6128Where did you learn to tell stories?"
6128Where on earth did you get such a creature?"
6128Where''s Iss?
6128Whither and to whom had she gone?
6128Who else can?"
6128Who is Henry?"
6128Who knows but that I may gain a deeper insight into the hidden mysteries than if I were delving among the dusty tomes of a university library?
6128Whom will you put in her place?
6128Why did I come thousands of miles to meet such a fate?
6128Why did not McDowell drive a flock of sheep against the enemy, and furnish his division commanders with shepherds''crooks?
6128Why did you not make a sketch?"
6128Why is it that we so often set our hearts on that which is denied?
6128Why is the world so full of trouble of every kind?
6128Why should I feign ignorance of that which your unbounded and unselfish devotion has proved so often?
6128Why should I lose the pleasure of these golden hours by seeking openly that which as yet she has not the slightest disposition to give?"
6128Why should I not be restless after sitting in the hot cars all day, and with the habit of tramping fresh upon me?"
6128Why should I stagger on beneath the burden of an intolerable existence, which will only grow heavier as the forces of life fail?"
6128Why should I, without apparent cause, have had such a dream?"
6128Why should other people thrust their lives on me?"
6128Why speak of anything I could do for you and Grace?
6128Will you let me take care of you as she does?"
6128Will you marry her?"
6128Will you not be my boy?
6128Will you not give me some brief explanation of this scene while they are gathering up the dead?"
6128Will you not honestly treat me as your equal, and tell me what you, as an educated man, believe?"
6128Will you promise me that, at the utmost exertion of your will and intelligence, you will try to live?"
6128Will you send Mrs. Hilland to an asylum, with its rules and systems and its unknown attendants?
6128Will you take it from me?"
6128With such immense capability for life as I am conscious of to- day, how is it that this life is but a passing and perishing manifestation?"
6128Wo n''t you help me?"
6128Wo n''t you take some''freshment, missy?
6128Would Grace fulfil her prediction and disappoint him, after all?
6128Would his acquaintance with Miss St. John lead to a like result?
6128Would she elude him, escape,_ die_, and yet remain at his side, beautiful as a dream?
6128Would you believe it?
6128Would you break a mother''s heart?
6128You do n''t imagine that our cavalry evolutions are all performed on straight turnpike roads, do you?
6128You do n''t wish that I was at the bottom of one of my mines, do you, Alford?"
6128You have been very ill.""Yes, but where am I?
6128You two are sufficient for yourselves; and why should I tramp after you like the multitude I should be?
6128You will come and see us again if you have a chance?"
6128You will come often?"
6128You will still use your utmost effort to live?"
6128You would n''t dream it, would you?
6128am I delirious?
6128are you here?"
6128cried Grace, clasping her in close embrace;"do you think we ever forget it?"
6128cried the bluff, frank old soldier--"not interest Mrs. Mayburn, the best and kindest of neighbors?
6128did you make them?"
6128have n''t other women lost their husbands?
6128he cried,"do you think there is any hope?"
6128he cried,"my friend, my brother, do n''t you know me?
6128he exclaimed,"am I dreaming?
6128is there any adequate remedy?
6128not interest Hilland''s alter ego?"
6128or had she with her ripe experience and keen insight discovered the ultimate truth?
6128she cried-- forgetting in her anguish that she had no God--"have I been more cruel than all the war?
6128she exclaimed,"is that the heavenly logic of your long, terrible story?"
6128she gasped,"what do you mean?"
6128what by my comrades in the regiment?
6128what does this mean, Alford?"
6128what the final outcome?"
6128what_ has_ he done?"
6128who?"
6128why are we endowed with such natures if corruption is to be the end?
6128why did you say that?"
29581''Sure enough''friend-- what do you mean?
29581A few months ago you did not question my motives,she said, reprovingly; then in a lower tone,"Your commander has never questioned, why should you?
29581A lady has fainted there in the alcove,he said, in a voice which sounded strange to her;"will you go to her?"
29581A lady who is no longer living?
29581Advantageous?
29581Ah, a slave?
29581Ah, that touches you, does it?
29581Ah, you absolutely refuse, Madame?
29581Alone?
29581Already?
29581American-- I suppose?
29581An hour ago you said:''Will you?'' 29581 And Captain Monroe?"
29581And I was idiot enough to disdain that invitation?
29581And I?
29581And I?
29581And Mr. Larue asks how much for her child?
29581And Mr. Loring-- how is he?
29581And brother Ken knew her, too?
29581And by what professions, or what mystic rhymes or runes, did he bring about this enchantment?
29581And does he, also, oppress you with his professional knowledge?
29581And for what purpose was she educated in such an establishment?
29581And if I refused it?
29581And in the meantime what are we to do with the squad from down the river?
29581And in the_ Yankee Army_?
29581And is this sensation to illustrate her ideas?
29581And my little Evilena the cause?
29581And of the two?
29581And of warriors?
29581And she is dead-- how long?
29581And the child was sold?--do you mean that?
29581And the estate you have just purchased in order to enjoy this Eden- like plantation life?
29581And the faculty-- they allowed it?
29581And the poor woman''s child?
29581And the reason of their depravity?
29581And the woman?
29581And this is all you have to tell me, Marquise?
29581And treat him a- la- Holofernes? 29581 And what, pray, do you intend doing with my sailor here?"
29581And when is this sale to be?
29581And when you realize that there is-- some one else-- will you then resume your former role of friend?
29581And who arranged this affair?--not-- my father?
29581And why not?
29581And why should a white girl like that be bought for the McVeigh plantation?
29581And why?
29581And you depend on me?
29581And you do not call that a romance?
29581And you eluded him?
29581And you finally went?
29581And you have lost those instructions?
29581And you knew her well in Paris?
29581And you parted unknown to each other?
29581And you ran the risk? 29581 And you-- married me, knowing this?"
29581And your mother?
29581And,with a little mocking glance,"do the violets and forget- me- nots also grow among the bushes here?"
29581And-- a--_Yankee_?
29581And--?
29581Any visitors today through all this storm?
29581Anything serious?
29581Anything wrong, Colonel?
29581Are all the arrangements made by our people entirely satisfactory?
29581Are the contents to be considered professionally, that is, confidentially?
29581Are they, now? 29581 Are you serious, Judithe de Caron?"
29581Are you sorry?
29581Are you sure, mother, that she has not treated you to enchantment? 29581 Astute pupil of the nuns!--and Monsieur Incognito?"
29581Aunt Sajane, when do you reckon we can dance at Kenneth''s wedding-- his and Gertrude''s? 29581 Blue?"
29581Brigadier? 29581 But if it were so?"
29581But my brother?
29581But pray enlighten me as to why you will be unable to exchange words with the medical stranger? 29581 But suppose I could-- and should?"
29581But suppose he''s away somewhere on business, or up there at Columbia on state councils or conventions, or whatever they are, as he is just now?
29581But this so- called Duke could help parading the doubtful honor of his descent; yet who fails to return his bow? 29581 But to what use then all these accomplishments, all this pursuit of knowledge?
29581But what of the divorce? 29581 But what will you do when there?"
29581But when no one travels the highway?
29581But why, why, why? 29581 But you are surely not the English- Americans of whom we see so much these days?
29581But you do n''t know who I am, do you?
29581But, my dear boy,gasped the Judge, thunderstruck at the news,"your commission stolen?
29581By the same power, how can I shut up and tell you at the same time?
29581Can such a thing be possible?
29581Carolina story?
29581Certainly!--and then?
29581Certainly, certainly,agreed Judge Clarkson,"but a search, Kenneth, my boy?
29581Charming-- is it not, Madame McVeigh? 29581 Child, what possessed you to tell to a Southern woman of the States that story reflecting on the most vital of their economic institutions?
29581Clever Englishman; and as he supposed you to be a paid companion, was he, also, some gentleman''s gentleman?
29581Colonel, are you serious in this matter? 29581 Did I not hear you actually praise one of those Yankees?--in fact, assert that he was a very fine fellow?"
29581Did I not tell you?
29581Did he not say anything?
29581Did n''t I hold on to those instructions while that Yankee spy was trying to send me to-- heaven? 29581 Did she divine I would be in evidence this morning?"
29581Did she speak to you?
29581Did the canoe from up the river bring visitors?
29581Did you mean that he was-- well, in love with this magnificent Marquise?
29581Do I know her? 29581 Do n''t I look like a lamb decked for the sacrifice?
29581Do n''t you remember the night run you made on the yacht_ Marquise_, last March?
29581Do n''t you want to go along and study the progress of autumn roses?
29581Do they add''Defender of the Faith''as our cautious English neighbors persist in doing?
29581Do they, now? 29581 Do you feel tired after the ride, Uncle?"
29581Do you forget that he was present when I gave you the papers?
29581Do you know him?
29581Do you know what a parole means? 29581 Do you mean to sing them all to me?"
29581Do you mean your son Steve, or your grandson?
29581Do you mean,he asked, eagerly,"that you could give me some new facts concerning the spy-- Monroe?"
29581Do you observe,queried Madame, slyly,"that while Monsieur Loris does speak of her religion, he avoids enlightening us as to her personality?"
29581Do you realize that all who run may read the subject of your discourse?
29581Do you really mean that you believe fairy stories?
29581Do you, now? 29581 Do you?
29581Doctor Delaven, what are you doing in that uniform?
29581Doctor Delaven, what is in that envelope?
29581Does not the presence of a French Marquise show how Europe sides with us?
29581Dr. Delaven, in the cause of justice, may I ask you to examine the contents of this letter?
29581Enchantment?
29581Entirely too much to announce in one evening,she decided;"do you forget they have had other plans for you?
29581Evilena is at Loringwood, you say? 29581 Evilena?"
29581Fainted? 29581 Faith, now, did you suppose for a minute it was the dowager I meant?
29581First, let me know, Mrs. McVeigh, which you would prefer if you had a choice-- to have me for your family physician, or a physician in your family?
29581For how many seconds did you tremble on the threshold?
29581Forget- me- nots, is it?
29581From-- you?
29581Gertrude''s sake?
29581Gideon Clarkson? 29581 Going to turn me out in a storm like this?"
29581Good settlements?
29581Had he a name?
29581Have they enforced some silent system of existence on you since I have been down at Mobile? 29581 Have you any objection to going back there?"
29581Have you become acquainted with the patriotic ardor of my little sister?
29581Have you ever observed what a paintable view there is from this point? 29581 Have you fled to the shadows to avoid us all?"
29581Have you found something mutually interesting?
29581Have you need to fear any special enemy here?
29581Have you no boyish loves of the past hidden away, each in their separate nook of memory? 29581 He was?"
29581Heavens!--will the man propose to me again before we reach the house or have breakfast?
29581Help whom?
29581Homesick?
29581How am I better than she but by accident?
29581How could I do else? 29581 How did you all excuse his eccentricities before he got sick, Aunt Sajane?"
29581How do we know that?
29581How do you find time to study them all?
29581How good of you to come at once-- and Mrs. Nesbitt, too? 29581 How have you been amused?"
29581How much he give you, Uncle Nelse?
29581How near?
29581How soon will you start?
29581Howdy, Miss Sajane? 29581 I am going now,"she said, steadily as she could;"I ask for no remembrance, no forgiveness; but-- have you no word of good- bye for me?--not one?
29581I am to suppose, then, that you know her-- this Madame Alain?
29581I begged that you make some excuse and leave for your command at once-- today-- do you refuse to heed that?
29581I have an errand in the next street; will you come?
29581I heard of a Jean Larue plantation across in Georgia-- is this it?
29581I know they want him to marry; are you a friend of his family?
29581I never did mean to steal your name, Captain Monroe,she explained,"for you are Captain Monroe?"
29581I shall notify you, General, when my preparations are made; in the meantime here is your rose; and would not my new yacht do for the journey?
29581I un''stan''you to say Mahs Jean Larue promise he keep yo''boy till such time as the money is raised?
29581I wear an American uniform tonight; suppose I am an American? 29581 I, Madame-- I?"
29581If-- if they win,and Pluto looked around nervously as he asked the question,"will it free us, Mahs Captain?
29581In love with the Marquise? 29581 In this particular vicinity?"
29581Indeed, now, would it?
29581Indeed?
29581Insurrection?
29581Is it considered a part of Southern hospitality that the host reserves the right to insult his guests?
29581Is it not true that you were received here as a friend, welcomed as a brother? 29581 Is it on my account?"
29581Is it to separate me from_ him_?
29581Is n''t he delightfully quaint?
29581Is not the veranda more cool than in here? 29581 Is that not Romeo and Juliet under your hand?
29581Is there any objection to Captain Monroe holding converse with other-- guests in the house?
29581It is Madame Alain-- the Marquise de Caron you call the devotee? 29581 It is absurd to call her atheistical,"she insisted;"would I be influenced by such a person?
29581It is that spendthrift-- Trouvelot, you care for?
29581It is time, almost, for the mail up from Pocotaligo today, is it not, Pluto?
29581It was dreadful, the way he led me on to say things, Aunt Sajane, for how was I to guess he was the doctor? 29581 It''s a hard, harsh sort of name, and he''s as-- as--""Soft?"
29581Its contents?
29581Just as she was stepping on ship board:''Your name I''d like to know?'' 29581 Kenneth''s last day home,"she lamented,"and such a celebration of it; is n''t it perfectly awful?
29581Kenneth, you are ill; you--"No; it is really nothing,he said, as he rose,"I am a trifle tired, I believe; absurd, is n''t it?
29581Kill us? 29581 Leave, alone-- without you?"
29581Like that? 29581 Madame Blanc, will you receive the gentleman?"
29581Madame Caron, will you please tell me this man''s name?
29581Madame Caron, you-- you were talking to him,she said, appealingly,"you did not suspect, either?"
29581Madame Caron,and she had never before heard him speak in that tone;"did you ever give Captain Monroe a picture of yourself?"
29581Madame McVeigh!--and why?
29581Margeret''s fit just frightened the plantation away for a minute,resumed Evilena,"but do own up, Madame Caron, is it Loringwood?"
29581Margeret,he said, looking at her, curiously,"have you seen Madame Caron today?"
29581Margeret? 29581 Mastered by myself?
29581Mastered?--you?
29581May I ask if Nelse is one of the five distinguished by your colors?
29581May I ask,said Masterson, with cold courtesy,"why you did not state when taken prisoner that you were paroled?"
29581May I express the hope that you sing the song often?
29581Me of help?
29581Me, is it? 29581 Me, is it?"
29581Miss Loring distinctively heard the rustle of a woman''s dress as her door opened; did you hear that?
29581Must?
29581My-- confederate?
29581Naw!--think me a bawn fool-- you? 29581 Never guessed that you loved me?"
29581No fooling about this business, mind you,he said, briefly;"what has Madame Caron to do with any spy?
29581No, I am not that,and she flashed a quick glance at him,"only I think I comprehend you, and to comprehend is to forgive, is it not?
29581No, I do not; have a cigar?
29581No; are you?
29581Not by a single sentence of protestation? 29581 Not even for me?"
29581Not going to run from the enemy?
29581Not true?
29581Now, Uncle Nelse, you do n''t mean to say it shortens people''s lives to have their picture taken?
29581Now, do you wonder that I adore my Judge?
29581Now, how can you possibly sympathize understandingly with a mother''s feelings, you Irish pretender?
29581Now, in the first place, if there is any objection to answering my question, I expect you to tell me so; you understand?
29581Now, what do you think?
29581Now, will you go?
29581Of course they do, and why should n''t they?
29581Oh, I did not know you had left your room,she remarked, going towards him;"do you think it quite wise?
29581Oh, Kenneth''s sister?
29581Oh, are you in it, Colonel?
29581Oh, it''s you, is it, Colonel?
29581Oh, yes, of course,agreed Gertrude,"but Kenneth, the guard has arrived, and who will they take in his place for court- martial?"
29581One of Miss Loring''s retainers?
29581Poor fellow-- is it a death?
29581Pretty? 29581 Probably both, Marquise; but there was a third meeting?"
29581Promised them all?
29581Really and truly, is that Yankee here?
29581Really? 29581 Really?"
29581Rhoda?
29581Risks?
29581Sad, is n''t it?
29581Send? 29581 Settled by the families?"
29581Shall you always regard marriage as merely an accident?
29581She-- killed her child?
29581Sick?
29581Some one in New Orleans? 29581 Still knitting socks, Mistress Nesbitt?"
29581Suppose it were so-- would that add to the wrongs you speak of?
29581Than to die of love?
29581That held yo''a slave when yo''was promised freedom? 29581 That old man had eyes like augers, and he seemed to look through me-- may I ask if he, also, is of your plantation, Madame?"
29581That? 29581 The Jean Larue estate,"she said, meditatively, seating herself at the table and picking up a pen,"and your wife was named Rosa?"
29581The Judge referred to Captain Monroe, did he not?
29581The Judge? 29581 The Marquise?
29581The very latest?
29581Then why not introduce him to the Marquise? 29581 Then you wo n''t take it?"
29581They were a wild, reckless lot so far back as I can learn, and I-- well, you could n''t call me wild and reckless, could you?
29581Though we never did use to think Loringwood isolated, did we, Gideon?
29581To Colonel-- or, shall we say, General-- McVeigh?
29581To conquer the Yankees?
29581To our family? 29581 To the President of the Southern Confederacy?"
29581Truly? 29581 Uniform, is it?
29581Was it not a rose you wagered me? 29581 Was n''t it clever of me to think of lighting the lamps?"
29581Was n''t she brave? 29581 Was there no one here to introduce you?"
29581We have heretofore had only good fortune; why should we complain because of a few obstacles now?
29581Well, Dr. Delaven, why are you blowing like a bellows?
29581Well, can you surmise the result of that order?
29581Well, do n''t you mean to tell me what it is?
29581Well, my man, what is it?
29581Well, my sweetheart, what is it?
29581Well, well? 29581 Well,"remarked Monroe, as he witnessed this maneuver,"what is it?"
29581Well-- the finale?
29581Well; what is it?
29581Well?
29581Well?
29581Well?
29581Well?
29581Were you actually-- conversing-- with that-- demi- mondaine?
29581Wha-- what you mean-- yo''Pluto? 29581 What about the runaways?"
29581What ails you, Margeret?
29581What became of the man you suspected as a spy this morning?
29581What can one woman do against such a multitude? 29581 What did you say this child was named?"
29581What do you mean by Miss Loring''s statement?--and what is this?
29581What do you mean?--my betrothed?
29581What further recompense to be desired? 29581 What is it you would tell her?"
29581What is it, Margeret?
29581What is it, mother?
29581What is it?
29581What is it?
29581What is she like now? 29581 What is the meaning of this agreement to purchase a girl of color, aged twelve, named Rhoda Larue?
29581What is the meaning of this?
29581What is there concerning me which you both conspire to hide? 29581 What of the English people you asked to bring today?"
29581What other one yo''talken''''bout?
29581What relationship? 29581 What right had you to make any offers of love to me at any time?
29581What right?
29581What sort of stories do you prefer-- love stories?
29581What the matter with yo'', anyway, a pitchen''yo''self''gainst the wheel that- a- way?
29581What then do you expect?
29581What then, of dogs, horses, lions, the many art works in metal or on canvas?
29581What then? 29581 What yo''reckon Madame Caron think o''we all ef she done heah_ that_?
29581What''s all the row about?
29581What, then, is so droll?
29581What, then?--you are only jesting with me?
29581When did you discover the loss, Colonel?
29581When?
29581Where did you get so well acquainted with the scripture, Nelse?
29581Where is he now?
29581Where is this Larue place?
29581Which means,he said, after a pause,"that you are in some danger?"
29581Who are you that their cause should be yours?
29581Who are you?
29581Who is so fit to decide such things for children as their parents and guardians? 29581 Who is that with you, the Judge?"
29581Who is the lady you call Madame Alain?
29581Who is to die?
29581Who was she, during those months of absence? 29581 Who, me?
29581Who-- Cinthy? 29581 Who-- me?
29581Who?--Margeret? 29581 Why did the man assault you?"
29581Why did you leave the place without seeing me again?
29581Why do n''t such men bear faces to suit their deeds, that all people may avoid the evil of them? 29581 Why do you call me English?"
29581Why do you paint pictures like that?
29581Why do you weep?
29581Why not?
29581Why not?
29581Why should you be so curious on a first meeting?
29581Why should you laugh, Monsieur Loris? 29581 Why should you starve yourself as well as me?"
29581Why this desertion from the ranks?
29581Why, honey, how you suppose our soldier boys would be provided for unless some of the representative men devote their time to the work? 29581 Why, mother, what is it, dear?
29581Will Mademoiselle have her fortune told?
29581Will he? 29581 Will you excuse us, doctor?
29581Will you not allow me, Madame, to introduce myself?
29581Would n''t he be a find for those abolitionists?
29581Yes; does your betrothed approve? 29581 Yes; you will forgive me for having my name spoken to you after all?
29581Yet you are in love with him?
29581Yet you came alone?
29581Yo''ai n''t boun''and sot to get run over, are yo''?
29581Yo''mean I''ll have a chance, maybe, to buy him back some day?
29581Yo''mean_ you''ll_ buy him in?
29581Yo''reckon I evah fo''get that ar? 29581 You are actually serious?"
29581You are angry at my presumption-- angry at the advantage I have taken of the situation?
29581You are certain?
29581You are not coquetting with me this time? 29581 You are not trying to play a practical joke, I reckon?"
29581You are? 29581 You come by way of England, I believe; do you prefer the various dialects of that land of fog?"
29581You could not be so hard- hearted as that?
29581You did not complete the letter you were writing?
29581You do not suppose I require proof of your innocence?
29581You doubt even the religion of my people?
29581You doubt the divinity of those laws?
29581You fear the decision?
29581You have met three times a man whose name you do not know?
29581You have met?
29581You have never seen it?
29581You have not met the Marquise de Caron?
29581You have read-- all?
29581You know anything about where Scip and Aleck are gone?
29581You love me-- now?
29581You mean Dr. Delaven; not worthy of me?
29581You mean socially? 29581 You mean to resign your commission for the sake of my society?
29581You mean, then-- to marry him?
29581You reason it out very well-- philosophy is one of your hobbies, is n''t it? 29581 You remember the story you heard here today-- the story of your guest and guardian, who sold the white child of his own brother?
29581You saw no one and heard no one?
29581You say that is the picture of Rhoda''s mother? 29581 You stand up fo''the race that took yo''chile from yo?"
29581You talk of haste, but forget that I have waited three years, Judithe; remember that, wo n''t you? 29581 You two going to stay up all night?"
29581You wild Irishman!--why not emphasize your prejudices by unearthing the Celtic and expressing yourself in that?
29581You will not be so unkind?
29581You would do that, Madame?
29581You-- starving?
29581You-- you heard news from Larue plantation?
29581_ Doctor_?
29581_ Our_ Evilena?
29581''In time freedom certainly will be arranged for-- but--""But Mahsa Linkum ai n''t done said it yet-- that it, Mahsa?"
29581--was this what she meant?
29581All the rest had''em took an''wheah are they?"
29581Am I so perfect in all ways that I dare preach, even with paint and brush?
29581Am I to commit murders?"
29581An''now what happened?
29581And did you hear about two of their field hands running off?
29581And if she were not in love with him, why ignore their former acquaintance, and why intercede for him so persistently?
29581And if that was not helping the cause and risking my life, well now, what would you call it?"
29581And if there should be only one of us, that remaining one would need some man''s help all the more, and if it were you, who then would the man be?
29581And if you want Dr. Delaven to hear about the old racing days, honey, had n''t you better take him into the library where the portraits are?
29581And my poor friend, Madame McVeigh, you remember her, Judithe?
29581And the storm; is n''t it dreadful?"
29581And to that--?"
29581And what about that boy of yours, Mistress McVeigh?
29581And what has Matthew Loring?"
29581And what''s all this, Gertrude?
29581And you would have me believe that an Englishman could make such speeches?
29581And, look here, Delaven, just get me out of that engagement to look at Dumaresque''s new picture, wo n''t you?
29581Are the brutal possibilities of your social institution so very far in the past?"
29581Are you and the world any the worse for them?
29581Are you aware that the woman was a runaway slave, and liable to recapture in this particular vicinity?"
29581Are you coming up, honey?"
29581Are you displeased about the sale?
29581Are-- are they a necessity to the preservation of life here?"
29581But I have outgrown all that; we always outgrow those things, do we not?
29581But as Monroe stepped out on the veranda she turned impatiently:"The despatch?"
29581But did I not assure you I might never marry?
29581But have you not noticed that each time I am allowed to enter this room I pay my devotions to that particular corner of the mantel?"
29581But he did n''t, did he?"
29581But he received instead a keen glance from the old eyes, and a question:"Loris, who is the man?"
29581But her heart told her--?
29581But you mean to be kind, and I suppose have some reason for asking?"
29581But, how to tell Madame Caron?
29581But, to change the subject, which of the two men have most interest for us tonight, Captain Jack or Dr. Delaven?
29581By the way, have you ever been in Georgia or South Carolina?"
29581By the way, how much time have you?"
29581Can we go in?
29581Can you comprehend that, Monsieur Loring?
29581Captain Jack?"
29581Clarkson has got him pinned down at last, has he?"
29581Delaven?"
29581Did I not prophecy there in the wood that we should meet again?
29581Did I understand you to say the military men have come for your friend, the Federal Captain?
29581Did he fancy she would allow it?
29581Did he not seem at all afraid?"
29581Did it improve her religion or cure her laziness?"
29581Did not the Egyptian say it?
29581Did this have a meaning relating to him?
29581Did you know Loringwood is actually offered for sale?
29581Did you never whistle''Jack Monroe''when you were a boy?"
29581Did you observe the watchfulness of Miss Loring on the lawn?
29581Did you think they would keep silence forever?"
29581Do n''t you consider him very bright, Judge?"
29581Do you entertain your visitors these days by dragging out the old linen for their inspection?
29581Do you forget that?
29581Do you hear me, Judithe?
29581Do you hear that, Gertrude?
29581Do you reckon I''d risk appearing before Gertrude Loring in a draggled gown just when she has returned from the very heart of the civilized world?
29581Do you remember what your last spoken words to me were, three years ago?"
29581Do you remember?
29581Do you select that quality and color for any beauties to be found in them?
29581Do you suppose I will go at once and leave my mother and sister to the danger of your intrigues?"
29581Do you think I shall let you forget it?
29581Do you wish, then, to be presented and-- to follow them?"
29581Doctor, for--""Then that puts the Judge and Col. Kenneth and myself on the outside of your fence, does it?
29581Does she mean to hide it all in some convent at last?"
29581Fo''God''s sake, Mahsa Captain, wo n''t yo''be that man?"
29581Free and alone?
29581Friends or foes?"
29581Gertrude,_ ca n''t_ I have him in here?"
29581Go on, who was accountable?"
29581Go on; what became of the girl?"
29581Governess?"
29581Had she remembered the pupil, but failed to recall the lesson taught?
29581Had you forgotten their prejudices?
29581Has no one seen her?"
29581Has your stranger bewitched her also?"
29581Have n''t I been raving about her for days?
29581Have n''t I had to endure your reflections on my sanity because of the adjectives I''ve employed to describe her attractions?
29581Have n''t you vowed she belonged to the type abhorrent to you?
29581Have you an ideal to which nothing human may reach?"
29581Have you moved so far into the swamp you ca n''t even hear when the family comes home?
29581He arose, pressed her hand to his lips and turned away, when a woman''s voice spoke among the palms:"Did you say in this corner, Madame?
29581He felt it as he neared the steps, but remarked carelessly:"Cloudy, is n''t it?
29581He is the owner of blue eyes, a haunting voice, and-- what else is my rival?"
29581He never after her death was heard to speak her name and did not marry until twenty years later-- what more apt material for a romance?
29581He offered the glass and looked at her, meaningly,"Will you drink?"
29581He shall free you, no matter what the result is to me; did you fancy I should let you go away under suspicion?
29581He was about to go when Monroe asked:"What about that picture you said your wife had of the girl?
29581He was honest, and he was a fighter, but of what use was that since he had blundered?
29581He was the only one who knew; had he, educated by some spirit of jest, been the sender of the blossoms?
29581Her more thoughtful moods demanded: Why not herself?
29581Housekeeper?
29581How could a nigger tell a white lady that story of Rhoda and Rhoda''s mother?
29581How could she have confessed it to him?
29581How dare you use that word?"
29581How far are we from the house now?"
29581How had she ever been led to sympathize with those rabid, mistaken theories of the North?
29581How much did they know or suspect?
29581How much you got paid on yo''little boy, Pluto?"
29581How would they meet if chance should send him there during her stay?
29581How yo''reckon Mrs. McVeigh like to hear such talk?"
29581Howdy, Miss Lena?"
29581However, I am eager for the finale-- the next day?"
29581I ca n''t sing it, ca n''t I?
29581I certainly shall not shake hands with a Northerner who may march with the enemy against our men; how can I?"
29581I gwine take it ovah to Mahs Larue nex''week, sure, an''now-- an''--now--"His words were smothered in a sigh; what use were words, any way?
29581I had no idea they were home, and it is too far to go back I suppose?
29581I hear there are so many of them in Paris now; Comtesse Biron brings one today; there is her message, what is the name?"
29581I like her way best; and Alain?
29581I meant to give him''backsheesh,''as the Orientals call it, so why not select what the fellow most wants-- even though it be a pickaninny?"
29581I say, Miss Evilena, how do you suppose the fellow in the song could be so dead sure of himself, for ever and ever?"
29581I thought it was that Raquel, and I--""Oh, Raquel?"
29581I use to kote that scripper to her many''s the day, but how much good it do to plant cotton seed on stony groun''or sow rice on the high lan''?
29581I was so careless as to blot the paper; do you wish to examine that?"
29581I was the one to do the bouncing out and nabbing you, was n''t I?
29581I wonder-- I wonder if he ever had a sweetheart?"
29581If she_ should_ leave for Savannah in the morning, why not let Matthew Loring hear, first, of the plans for Loringwood''s future?
29581If you remain I shall invite you over; shall you?"
29581In_ there_?"
29581Is it a good likeness?"
29581Is it for the dram?
29581Is it not true that today you managed to divert suspicion from yourself to an innocent lady?
29581Is it true that your picture of the Kora is to be seen at the dowager''s tomorrow?"
29581Is it true the Linkum men are whipped?"
29581Is it true you been took prisoner?
29581Is n''t it a shame?
29581Is she then ugly that she dare be so superior?"
29581Is that another of the free institutions in your land of liberties?"
29581It had to be played any way, so why not double the stakes?
29581It is all because you are just a little theatrical, is it not?
29581It is only a fancy; why should you leave for that?
29581Judge, is n''t it you would lend a boy a hand in a love affair?
29581Judithe looked at her kindly and said:"You have already tried to serve me today, Margeret; I''ve been thinking of it since, and I wonder why?"
29581Judithe, does not this young lady fulfill the foreign idea of the American girl-- a combination of the exclamation and interrogation point?"
29581Ladies maid?
29581Let him remain here under guard until tomorrow?"
29581Love in a woman''s heart should be her religion; what religion could be centered on so vile a creature?
29581Madame Caron, may I ask you if you knew Captain Monroe previous to yesterday?"
29581Maman, what can I say to make you understand that I could never refuse him again?
29581May I ask some one to present me to your notice?"
29581May I call him?"
29581Might I ask how you know?"
29581Miss Sajane?
29581Mother, why not ask the boys of the guard to stop over for your party?
29581My''gatah pasture?
29581No?"
29581Now do you comprehend my assurance that Captain Monroe is innocent?
29581Now was n''t she worth a day''s journey afoot just to look at?"
29581Now, I should say it was Margeret the warning was for; why should the likeness of her come to hint of your death?"
29581Now, I think it''s funny; do n''t you?"
29581Now, Monsieur Loris, would you call that love, or is it a sort of summer- time madness?"
29581Now, dare you contest my statement that one of the Loring family is a Federal agent?"
29581Now, do you comprehend why one woman has crossed the seas to help, if possible, overthrow an institution championed by you?
29581Now, what are you planning for Kenneth''s home coming?
29581Oh, Louise, child, do you fancy, then, that you are the whole world?"
29581Oh, tell me all about her; is she very grand, very pretty?"
29581One word, a look; you believe me?"
29581Perhaps there is a betrothed somewhere to whom he has sworn allegiance in its most rigid form; is that the reason?"
29581Pierson?"
29581Pluto looked at him steadily for an instant, and then asked, cautiously:"Mahs Captain, you a sure enough friend of Madame Caron?"
29581Pluto, what in the world are you doing here?"
29581Reckon that strange gentleman give me dollar for it?--the frame is mighty pretty-- what you think?"
29581Scip and Aleck; is n''t it too bad?
29581She felt at times she would like to get them all under her feet-- trample them down and make room for something better; but for what?
29581She had not the slightest idea of doing it then; but now, why not?
29581She halted at the door and added,"Will you wait?"
29581She has never been to the Terrace before, and she had a lost sort of appearance as she wandered in here, did she not?
29581She heard them say Pierson had escaped, but had he retained the papers?
29581She meant to live to the last minute of her life, and where so well as in the one city inexhaustible?
29581She remembered his words of love-- the adoration in his eye; would that love protect her when he learned she was the traitor to his home and country?
29581She saw Kenneth McVeigh speaking to his mother and glancing around inquiringly; was he looking for her?
29581She wrote a line or two, and then spoke without looking up,"Will you be so kind, Captain Monroe, as to come over to the table?"
29581Should we dare then to judge her by our standards, Maman?
29581Since when are you fond enough of them to claim kindred?"
29581Six weeks?"
29581So, Monsieur, this is how you mean to love, honor and obey me?"
29581So, she was a school friend of the Comtesse Helene, eh?
29581So, why not grant him another day of grace?
29581Somebody''s servants might have helped with that theft, why not his own?
29581Still, since I had to send him away, what matter how?
29581Still, what does it matter?"
29581Suppose I succeed, how shall I communicate with you or with the detachment of Federals?"
29581Talking over that disaster, Judge?"
29581Tell Miss Gertrude I shall drive over soon as I am rested a little-- and Mr. Loring, is he better?"
29581Tell me true, Mahs Captain, will we be free?"
29581That drove yo''wild fo''years with misery?
29581That she had so soon forgotten?
29581That why I know fo''suah she come back fo''some special spy work-- what else that gal run herself in danger fo''nothen''?"
29581That you heard me say they were very important?
29581That you listened this morning when those military dispatches reached me?
29581The Colonel looked steadily at Judithe as he said:"Captain Monroe, did you know Madame Caron before you met her in my house?
29581The hat hid your face, you know, until you turned around, and then--""Well?"
29581The man is in that room who did all that, an''yo''stan''up fo''him along of the rest?"
29581The name-- the name is Loring-- Genevieve?
29581The seal is yet unbroken-- will you read it?"
29581Then McVeigh said:"Where did you get the picture found on your person last night?"
29581Then Miss Loring and her uncle have got over from Charleston?"
29581Then she glanced at Delaven,"did we interrupt a dissertation on your favorite topic, Doctor?"
29581There had been an appointment?"
29581There was conversation I presume?"
29581They are the only absolutely joyous ones, are they not?"
29581They were clear of the steps and of probable listeners before Judithe asked:"Where did you get this information?"
29581Think she''d even cook vittels fo''her own self if she could help it?
29581This is the twenty- second of September, is n''t it?
29581This little woman"--and she nodded towards Louise--"must be treated for homesickness; you observe her depression since we left the cities?
29581This time I''ve caught you, have I?
29581This woman Marg''ret ai n''t Retta; they jest as yo''might say two different women;"then, after a pause,"any othah thing you want ask me, sah?
29581To_ our_ family?
29581WHOSE SOUL HAVE I NOW?
29581Was I now?"
29581Was it a relic of inherited tendencies when all women of whatever complexion were but slaves to their masters-- called husbands?
29581Was it merely an accident that it was the marble on which the fragrant bit of red had been let fall?
29581Was it true that certain slavish natures in women-- whether of Caucasian or African blood-- loved best the men who were tyrants?
29581Well, he''s a lucky fellow; when are we to dance at the wedding?"
29581Well, she had not been able to prevent the same fault, so, how dared she blame him?
29581Well; is my education to be neglected because you fear I shall injure the daintily- bound books in the human library?
29581What became of the forget- me- nots he gathered?"
29581What can you do about an establishment such as mine?
29581What cursed fancy led you to risk life, love, honor, everything worth having, for a fanatical fight against one of two political factions?"
29581What do you think of him-- or of his motives?"
29581What do you think of it?"
29581What else were we to think of a bride who chooses a convent in preference to society?"
29581What fo''you hide theah an''listen?"
29581What good was freedom to me without her?
29581What has inspired this fury in you?
29581What has moved you to contemplate such sacrifices?"
29581What is he like, nice?"
29581What is he that any one should be exalted by his favor?
29581What is the matter tonight?"
29581What other woman would have dared question her like that?
29581What particular Marquise?"
29581What right have you now?"
29581What right have you to tell me now?
29581What star of the heavens dare twinkle beside her?"
29581What then would you call lively if this has been dull?
29581What was it the Judge was saying about emancipation last evening?
29581What, child?
29581When do we start?
29581When do you expect him home?"
29581Where could we begin?"
29581Where have you gained it all?
29581Where in all this wide world would I go with my freedom if I had it?
29581Where is the justice you used to gauge every one by?
29581Where the mercy to others weaker than yourself?"
29581Where would you find a landlord of England or Ireland who would make a free gift of three thousand dollars to a servant?
29581Who but the Federals would want them?
29581Who could be oppressed with political schemes in this delightful life of the plantation?
29581Who is the man?"
29581Who opens the next scene?"
29581Who the devil are you talking about?"
29581Who was that man?"
29581Why are you dallying with the servants''tasks?"
29581Why did you weep at their words?"
29581Why had she wept at his confession of love for her?
29581Why must the very respectable world see only the sins of the unfortunate, and save all their charity for the heads with coronets?
29581Why should she remember his words, or forget for one instant that infamy with which his name was connected?
29581Why, what is wrong?"
29581Why?"
29581Will he, then, be interested in such small things as pickaninnies?"
29581Wo n''t he be surprised to see you all?"
29581Would the words be of no use?
29581Yet I have seen eyes that were as honest looking, cover a vile soul, so why not this one?"
29581Yet who among them could have access to the rooms of the family?
29581Yo''all hear tell how one o''Cynthy''s boys done run away, too?
29581You actually mean to let Captain Monroe go free?"
29581You are curious as to her-- and you wish me to answer questions?"
29581You are waiting for Colonel McVeigh?
29581You ask me?"
29581You have grief-- some sad misfortune?"
29581You have the sorrow today-- what is it?"
29581You know those last cookies I baked?
29581You mean beautiful?"
29581You mean it?"
29581You saw how he could make me cry?
29581You startled me into forgetting--""_ I_ startled_ you_?
29581You think I keep time on all the runaway boys these days?
29581You think me, then, too cold or too philosophic, in spite of what I have just told you?"
29581You to command a brigade?"
29581You will honor me by accepting them?"
29581You''ll like that, wo n''t you?"
29581You''re not at all sick, my man; what in the wide world are you shamming for?
29581Your English people always do that, eh?
29581Your words, your manner; what do they mean?
29581_ Now_, will you take me away?"
29581a creole?
29581a tryst at mid- day?"
29581affirmed the practical damsel;"do you want to hear the second?"
29581and Dumaresque''s exclamation had a note of hope;"he had been a bore after all?"
29581and Mrs. McVeigh raised her brows inquiringly--"then you have proposed?"
29581and she laughed heartily;"am I grown such a thing of terror that I dare not enter a door lest danger follow?
29581and she looked quite relieved at finding a companion in iniquity;"but you did shake hands?"
29581and the Marquise raised her brows;"could we be more happy than we are?"
29581and there''s many a one of us travels longer and finds less, and never gets a song made about him, either; so, that''s your first reason, is it?"
29581and what is that but a mood, too?"
29581and what word do you covet?"
29581and you, Captain Masterson?"
29581asked Evilena in frank self- laudation,"just listen how that rain beats; and did you see the hail?
29581asked a voice beside them, and the beringed Egyptian pushed aside the palms,"or Monsieur, perhaps?"
29581cried Madame Ampere, who had not yet spoken, but who expressed horror by her eyes,"where then do you find your standards for such judgment?"
29581he demanded, stopping short,"my Mistress McVeigh?"
29581he said, sharply,"if the old man recognized the likeness, how comes it that the mother herself did not see it?"
29581he ventured, trying to see her face as he drew a chair closer;"longing for that twelve- year- old baby of yours?
29581or was it only chance?
29581said Evilena, triumphantly,"is n''t that as interesting as your Irish romances?
29581said Judithe, with a little gesture of horror,"and what do they do with them-- those dangerous serpents of Eden?"
29581say this to comfort me; why?"
29581she asked, kindly,"looking for Miss Gertrude?"
29581she demanded,"right here in the house?
29581she persisted;"surely you will not counsel haste in deciding so serious a matter?"
29581she repeated, bitterly,"and in your own age all that is changed?"
29581then there_ is_ some further use you have for my house as a rendezvous?
29581was that why she had consented to the hurried marriage?--to shield herself under his name, and to influence his favor for her lover?
29581what sort of man would he be, any way?"
29581you are not ill?"
5309''Granted? 5309 Ah, mine uncle,"cried Whately,"where on earth is to be found a festive board like yours?
5309Ain''he in de gyardin?
5309And can you imagine for a moment, sir,cried Mr. Baron,"that we will submit to a government that would be acceptable to New England?"
5309Are n''t you on our side?
5309Are the hands making trouble?
5309Are you a woman, that you can thus try to sacrifice the motherless girl committed to your charge?
5309Are you an orphan, too?
5309Are you shore ther wuz no''sturbances last night?
5309Are you-- am I alive?
5309As large as ours?
5309Aun''Jinkey,said the girl in an awed whisper,"do you think they can marry me against my will?"
5309Aunt Jinkey,said Scoville, who was watching her,"that screech- owl worries you, does n''t it?"
5309Bless yo''heart, Miss Lou, you ain''projeckin''anyting?
5309But ARE you?
5309But how about the long hours of the night, sir? 5309 But how can you take part in such a war?"
5309But how-- how?
5309But what can you and your armies hope to accomplish?
5309But why do you all come marauding and trampling on the South?
5309Can he be dead?
5309Can not you be content to confine your ministrations to your friends only?
5309Can the news Chunk brought have had any such effect?
5309Can you think of any way, Chunk?
5309Can you think that this war is a holiday to me?
5309Chunk and Aun''Jinkey brought you back to earth right sudden, did n''t they?
5309Cousin Madison,she said earnestly,"why do n''t you end this wicked nonsense and act like a cousin?
5309Did Marse Scoville say dat?
5309Did you eber see de likes?
5309Did you tell Perkins Chunk been yere?
5309Do I look as if I would harm you, Miss Lou? 5309 Do I look very serious?"
5309Do you actually mean to say that you will try to marry me against my will?
5309Do you expect us to go hungry? 5309 Do you intend to remain in this country and hold it in subjection?"
5309Do you know what I have been writing?
5309Do you mean to say that you''ll take no more orders from me?
5309Do you regret this?
5309Do you suppose I will take either command or counsel from one who is beside himself? 5309 Do you think I am accustomed to these sights and sounds?"
5309Do you think it possible for me to get away at once?
5309Do you think it wisest and best that we should?
5309Do you think there''s no other way?
5309Does you tink I doan wanter know dat chile is safe?
5309Does you tink de Linkum men git druv off agin?
5309Does you''spect de hull top''s gwine ter be tu''ned right ober down''erds in er day? 5309 Ef you has, why doan you tell Miss Lou''bout tings dat kin be done''stead o tings dat kyant be?"
5309Go away with that cowardly wretch, Perkins? 5309 Had you not better try a little kindness?"
5309Has not the sad experience of many others inspired our fears? 5309 Has you been hangin''roun''nights, Chunk?"
5309Have n''t you negroes that you can trust to take the stock off into the woods for concealment?
5309Have you heard anything, sir?
5309Have you it on now?
5309Have you no fear?
5309Hi, granny, whar dat hot stuff you gib me fer de belly misery?
5309Hi, now, Miss Lou, w''at you tookin on so fer?
5309How can one have the right spirit when mocked by such a hope as I''ve had? 5309 How can you ask so absurd a thing?"
5309How can you know it? 5309 How comes it she''s friendly to''we uns,''as you say down here?"
5309How could I run away? 5309 How could Lieutenant Whately protect me if the Yankees should come in numbers?"
5309How is your patient?
5309How she gwine ter hab quiet w''en ole miss gwine ter hab Marse Perkins whip me''n Aun''Jinkey ter daith?
5309How she gwine ter tol''you tings?
5309How so?
5309How we know, mars''r? 5309 How you know dat?"
5309How you know?
5309I appeal to Miss Baron herself,said Dr. Borden,"if she has been offended in this respect to- day?"
5309I reckon you do, more than they would like to see published in the county paper; but we are n''t scandal- mongers, are we, Aun''Jinkey?
5309I shall not go away without-- what?
5309I wonder if Abraham and the Patriarchs would have been any more ready for the new order of things than uncle?
5309If his spirit could come here at all would it not come to me instead of to that brutal wretch? 5309 If there is a God?"
5309Is n''t it all a dream?
5309Is that all you fear?
5309Is the coast clear?
5309Is there a soldier here named Yarry?
5309Is there haste? 5309 Is there no use of reasoning with you, uncle-- no use of pleading with you?"
5309Is this Miss Baron and one of my son''s nurses?
5309Is your arm woun''ed?
5309Kin we uns go''long wid you, mars''r? 5309 Lieutenant Scoville was n''t hurt, was he?"
5309Look here, you people,he began harshly,"do you think I will permit such disturbances?
5309Look yere, Leftenant, what''s the use o''you bein''so gunpowdery with me? 5309 Louise, Miss Baron, what is the matter?"
5309Louise, are you losing your mind?
5309Madam,he said, lifting his hat,"will you kindly direct your cook to prepare a breakfast immediately for the wounded?
5309Madam,resumed Scoville, removing his hat,"will you give my orders, or shall I?"
5309Madison, what can you hope from a wife won by such violence?
5309Madison,said his mother, tearfully,"am I, who have so loaded you with kindness, of no account?"
5309Miss Baron, will you kindly prepare Waldo for his mother''s visit? 5309 Miss Baron,"said the captain calmly,"Is n''t it wonderful?
5309Miss Lou? 5309 Mother, do you think I mean to be thwarted by that girl?
5309Mother,said Waldo,"have you any definite idea as to the success of our arms?"
5309Mr. Baron, I presume?
5309Mr. Baron,replied the officer,"have you not yet learned that I am in command on this plantation?"
5309Mrs. Baron,said her husband in strong irritation,"do n''t you see there is nothing left for us to do?
5309No mattah''bout my haid, eh? 5309 Now see yere, Miss Lou, is n''t you onreason''ble?
5309Of what use were you last night? 5309 Oh, I must help him bear it; yet how can I?
5309Oh, is there no hope?
5309Oh, what does this mean?
5309Oh, yes, Aun''Jinkey, that was plain enough; but do you know how he would take me and when?
5309Oh, yo''orful growed up en ain''fin''dat out?
5309Oh, you deign to do something for me?
5309Outrage to you, Miss Baron?
5309Perkins, what IS the matter?
5309See yere, Zany, does you tink Marse Scoville a fool?
5309So you are plotting?
5309So you are the angel of death to me?
5309Surely you do n''t love any one else, Louise?
5309That Yankee cuss dead?
5309That you, Chunk?
5309The ladies of your household, I suppose?
5309Then-- then-- if you do n''t come again?
5309There now, Aun''Jinkey, do n''t you see? 5309 Took it off and fired it while he was trying to shoot me?"
5309Uncle, are the people of the North savages?
5309Uncle,said his ward gravely,"is only your property at stake?
5309Uncle,said the girl, almost fiercely,"did you not hear that man say of my cousin,''curse his red- hot blood''?
5309Uncle,she said, coming directly to him,"can it be that you sanction anything so wicked as this?
5309W''at you want anyhow, imperdence?
5309W''at''s the good o''yer bein''yere then?
5309Warn me of what?
5309Wat you tinkin''''bout, Miss Lou?
5309Wat you want ter know yo''fortin fur?
5309Wat''s ter begin?
5309Well, Miss Baron, what is it to be a Christian-- what is your idea of it? 5309 Well, Whately, what do you say?"
5309Well, Zany, what have you to say? 5309 Well, what is it?"
5309Well, you kind old soul, what do you know?
5309Well,Mrs. Whately tried to say politely,"have not you young people taken an ell?"
5309Well,said Mr. Baron in a sort of dreary apathy,"do you and Louise wish to go away under an escort furnished by the major?"
5309Well,she said to Zany in cold, cutting tones,"what are you doing here?
5309Well?
5309Well?
5309Whar dat gran''boy o''you''n?
5309What IS the matter?
5309What are you going to do?
5309What are you putting the house in such wonderful order for?
5309What can I do to right myself in your eyes?
5309What can you think of me when you fight about me like a wild beast?
5309What chance have I had to love anyone, except my old mammy? 5309 What do all these preparations mean?
5309What do you mean by such language?
5309What do you mean?
5309What do you think of my scout, Miss Baron?
5309What does all this mean?
5309What has been the result of all the years of kindness bestowed upon you?
5309What is the meaning of this wild talk of Cousin Madison?
5309What right have they to do such a thing?
5309What stands between me now and death-- perhaps a shameful and horrible death-- except your kindly, womanly impulses? 5309 What the dev-- what makes yer speak so loud?
5309What time did the alarm happen?
5309What you doing here?
5309What you gwine ter do, honey?
5309What you took me fer?
5309What''s the name of the soldier of whom you speak?
5309When can I begin to read to him, doctor, to help him pass the time?
5309When is this wedding to be?
5309When?
5309When?
5309Where has Lieutenant Whately gone?
5309Where have you been?
5309Where is Cousin Lou?
5309Where the devil are you goin''with those men and shovels?
5309Where''s Captain Maynard?
5309Where''s uncle?
5309Where''s your grandson, Chunk?
5309Where''s your grandson?
5309Who brought that here?
5309Who carried''i m off? 5309 Who else could it be?"
5309Who has given you the right to dictate to me or to this gentleman? 5309 Who in God''s name?"
5309Who is she?
5309Who the devil is hit arter then?
5309Who will he be?
5309Whom are you addressing, sir?
5309Why did you enter the army?
5309Why do n''t you go after him then?
5309Why do you look at me so?
5309Why does Captain Maynard stare at me so?
5309Why does he feel so?
5309Why have n''t you told me of this? 5309 Why is Perkins watching him?"
5309Why not?
5309Why the devil did n''t you let us know Chunk was here las''night?
5309Why you look dat away at Miss Lou, Aun''Jinkey?
5309Why, whar in-- is the dog? 5309 Wo n''t you let me call you Miss Lou once before I go?"
5309Wo n''t you please put on your hats and let me come and go as a matter of course? 5309 Would you, sir, force a girl, scarcely more than a child, to marry a man when you knew that she would rather die first?
5309Yes, and what may he not say to her? 5309 You a Linkum man, ain''you?"
5309You are a Yankee, I suppose?
5309You are not seriously hurt, I hope?
5309You do n''t believe in any such foolishness, Uncle Lusthah?
5309You have practiced nothing but restraint in the case of Louise, and what is the result?
5309You have some news about Lieutenant Scoville?
5309You say my cousin has charge of the prisoners?
5309You wan ter run wid me?
5309You''speck I''se feared ter speak fer dat chile w''at stan''by me so? 5309 Zany, what are you concealing?"
5309''Only death could keep me from seeking you and living for you always, did I not tell you, my darling, my darling?''
5309After an instant Miss Lou faltered,"What is it, Zany?"
5309Ah, Scoville, you have news?"
5309Am de Lawd dat die fer us wuss''n a graven himage?
5309And I hear her exclaim, throwing up her hands,''Bress de Lawd, Marse Scoville, dat you?
5309Any man who asks, What is best for the woman I love?
5309Are they unseeing, not because it is dark, but because the light of life is quenched?"
5309Are we not in his power?
5309Are women told exactly what they must think and do, like little children?
5309As Chunk was stealthily putting on a bridle, a gruff voice asked,"What yer doin''thar?"
5309As soon as he reached the spot where the prisoners had been kept he asked sharply,"Where is that Yankee officer and Perkins?"
5309As the old woman was stealing out she met Mrs. Baron, who asked sharply,"What do you want?"
5309Aun''Jinkey followed them from her cabin and asked,"Wat you gwine ter do yere, honey?"
5309Aun''Suke,"spoke up Zany, who had been listening for a moment,"doan yer know Chunk de boss ob de hull bizness?
5309Before very long Maynard remarked sotto voce,"If you aid in healing the wounds made by the Yanks, Miss Baron, who will heal the wounds YOU make?"
5309CHAPTER VIII"WHEN?"
5309Ca n''t we agree that this is fair and natural in each case?"
5309Can it be that I have been absent a year?"
5309Can you expect me to have a woman''s form and not a woman''s mind?
5309Can you guess her object in coming?"
5309Can you think I would let the girl whom my son hopes to marry do an indelicate thing?
5309Can you think I would stand by and see him cursed and beaten?
5309Casting a severe look on her niece, she asked Aun''Suke,"Will you obey me now?
5309Could it be possible?
5309Could the Yankees be such ravening wolves as her uncle and cousin represented them to be?
5309Could you not have killed him had you so wished?"
5309Deth useter seem orful, Miss Lou, but sech a heap ob mens die dat ef Mad Whately des set on dyin'', w''y not let''i m hab he way?
5309Did Borden send you here?"
5309Did dey git her mar''d?"
5309Did n''t I know dat ar w''en I mek bole ter speak?
5309Did n''t I stan''wid dem w''at die ter mek us free?
5309Did n''t she tole you dat she ain''on yo''side?"
5309Did n''t yer hear a crack of a rifle?
5309Do I look like a monster?
5309Do n''t you know that my will must be law on this plantation?"
5309Do n''t you see in what good stead your high spirit has stood you?
5309Do n''t you see?
5309Do n''t you think he was rather rude in not acknowledging your presence?"
5309Do you at last recognize the fact that I am growing older?"
5309Do you believe there''s a God who cares for us as Uncle Lusthah says?"
5309Do you not see the glint of the moonbeams on a carbine?
5309Do you suppose that I can be guided in my solemn trust by your petulance, your ignorant notions of life, and your almost childish passion?
5309Do you think he''ll remember it?"
5309Do you think it right, Lieutenant Scoville, that a woman should never have any independent life of her own?"
5309Do you think there ought to be a minister?
5309Do you understand that?"
5309Doan He feel fer you mo''n we kin?
5309Doan you min''de time Uncle Lusthah pray fer rain en we wus all nigh drownded?"
5309Doan you reckermember, honey?
5309Doan you see Marse Scoville des tekin''a longer way roun''de bush?
5309Doan you wanter be a free gyurl?"
5309Does he think I''m silly and shallow enough to be amused by this kind of thing when that brave old colonel is dying across the hall?"
5309Does n''t it go on?
5309Does you KNOW whar he is?
5309Does you s''pects I dar stay roun''whar Perkins am?
5309Does you tink ef de Lawd mean ter sabe us''t all He''d do hit in some long rounerbout way dat de wise people kyant mos''fin''out?
5309Does you tink you kin git lazy en thievin''en drunken?
5309Does you tink you kin tromple on a woman?
5309Does you''spects I kin ride all night en all day ter brung you freedom, en den not eben git a good word?
5309Down came the apron, revealing black eyes blazing through the tears which were dashed right and left as Zany cried,"You ole himage, w''at you keer?
5309Droll, was n''t it, that I should take her for an angel?
5309Ef de spook come,''spose he tink we no business yere en des lay we out lak he kunjer yo''dawg?
5309Ef dey is spooks, Aun''Jinkey, w''at dat ter you?
5309Entering the rear door she heard the soldier demanding fiercely of her uncle,"Where''s that cursed nigger you call Chunk?"
5309Even if you think me wrong, can you not believe that I''ve followed my conscience and lived up to such light as I had?
5309Had her answer anything to do with the sudden and bold departure?
5309Haint young mistis been breakin''her lil gyurlish heart ober yo''trouble?
5309Has n''t I hep you out''n in eberyting so fur?
5309Hastening to Scoville he demanded,"What does this mean?
5309Have I not seen more of them than you have?
5309Have YOU had any breakfast?"
5309Have n''t I minded you since?"
5309Have you no home, Captain Maynard, no kindred who would always curse my name?
5309Have you not been brave and true to yourself in the most painful of ordeals?
5309Have you not heard me express my opinion of them over and over again?
5309Have you not protected my life and liberty?
5309He looked at her steadily and silently for a moment, then reached out his hand as he said in an awed whisper,"Is it on account of me?
5309He seized both her hands and asked,"What will you take for that shoe?"
5309He turned around to his wife and sister almost gasping,"Is this some deep- laid plot?"
5309Heard what?"
5309How HAVE you accomplished this?"
5309How He act toward folks dat hab trouble-- ev''y kin''ob trouble?
5309How can God let such troubles come upon us?"
5309How can I help thinking?
5309How can I say good- by?
5309How can I, how can I?"
5309How can you be so blind as not to see I am doing the best thing possible to retain Louise within our control and lead her to fulfil our hopes?
5309How can you be so unmanly?
5309How can you marry me when I WILL not marry you?"
5309How could you have seen him?"
5309How could your cousin wish to marry you if you do not love him?"
5309How happened it that his bullet flew so wide of the mark?"
5309How is your arm?"
5309How should I know who she is?"
5309How we uns gwine ter be free''less Marse Scoville stay yere en kep us free?"
5309How''s that?"
5309I ask you again, how are you going to MAKE Louise do what you wish?
5309I hope that your father was not killed in this war?"
5309I should be glad to know where YOU draw the line?
5309I suppose we will all agree that we should obey the supreme dictates of conscience?"
5309IS we free?
5309If I am old enough to own land, am I never to be old enough to own myself?"
5309If I could only explain to him more fully-- yet how can I?
5309If I survive, may I not hope that when I come again you will give me a hearing, a chance?
5309If this Northern officer is what you fear, why would he have spared my son, whom he might have killed in fair battle?
5309If you care a straw for my opinion, why are you so foolish as to compel me to draw comparisons?
5309If you were trying to make her hate you, how could you set about it more skilfully?"
5309In de night who say you ain Marse Whately?"
5309In overpowering solicitude she asked herself,"Where is he whose eyes looked such strange, sweet truth into mine to- day?
5309Is an honorable marriage which has always been contemplated the worst that could happen?
5309Is dere any sech foolishness yere?
5309Is he up there?"
5309Is n''t that enough?"
5309Is n''t there something I can do for you, to show my gratitude and good- will?"
5309Is that the kind of a protector you would force upon me?"
5309Is there anything more that I can do for you?
5309Is this a time for headlong anger?
5309Is this young officer going through the country on his own responsibility?
5309Is your information for my ear only?
5309Is-- is he really dying?"
5309Kaze ef you does, w''at I gwine ter do?
5309Lieutenant Scoville?"
5309Look here, Aun''Jinkey, does that run we hear singing yonder go round and round in one place and with the same current?
5309Looking around for something to carry off before you go also?"
5309Looking at his cousin''s red eyes and pale face, he asked abruptly,"What''s the matter?"
5309Mad Whately dashed up to the piazza steps and asked breathlessly,"Are you all safe?"
5309Mars''r, w''at I say ter you?
5309Marse Perkins, w''at dat light dancin''up yon''er by de grabeyard?"
5309Meantime, Mrs. Baron, hearing her husband''s voice, came out and exclaimed,"Is that Louise and the Yankee yonder going off alone?"
5309Meanwhile, she was asking herself,"What would they do to me if all was found out?"
5309Miss Lou made no reply, and the expression on all faces led him to ask quickly,"Why, what''s the matter?"
5309Miss Lou seized the girl with a grip which hurt her arm, demanding,"Have you heard anything about-- about Lieutenant Scoville?"
5309Miss Lou thought,"Have I ever known a peace so deep and sweet as this?"
5309Miss Lou wuz a wishin''sump''n ud hap''n-- w''at ain''gwinter hap''n?"
5309Mr. Baron was on the back porch calling,"Chunk, where in the mischief are you?"
5309Mr. Baron, why do n''t you gain the goodwill of those people and secure their co- operation?
5309Mrs. Whately moaned,"are YOU living, or are you dead?
5309My old mammy is here and--""Well,"ejaculated the major,"have you no stronger tie than that of a slave mammy in your home?"
5309Noiselessly shutting the door the matron said warningly:"Do n''t you know Miss Lou''s life depends on quiet?"
5309Now tell me quick-- don''t waste a word--where is Lieutenant Scoville?"
5309Now where''s that Yank?
5309Now, marse cap''n, w''at fo''you go way in the de dark, you dunno whar?
5309Of course our side is right in this war, but how can I believe with uncle that nearly all the people in the North are low, wicked and vile?
5309Oh, Allan, Allan, are you so lost to me that you can never look goodwill into my eyes again?"
5309Oh, aunt, how can you urge a girl toward a loveless marriage?"
5309Oh, mammy, mammy, do you think he''s surely dead?"
5309Oh, mammy, mammy, how can God be so cruel?
5309Oh, what shall I say?
5309Oh, when shall I forget the way he took me in his arms?
5309Oh, why could n''t you, with your gray hairs, have shown a little wisdom in helping me restrain him?"
5309Oh, why did n''t I shoot the nigger?"
5309On one occasion Whately had said a little irritably,"I say, Dr. Ackley, what''s the use of Maynard''s hanging around here?
5309Opening her door, she gave a glimpse of herself in night attire with her long hair hanging over her shoulders, and cried,"Oh, oh, are we attacked?"
5309Prefer charges against my own cousin which I can not prove?
5309Re- entering, she whispered,"Kin you lif de trap- do''?"
5309S''pose you say you woan wuk en woan''bey, how you hole out agin Perkins en Mad Whately?
5309She began laughing as she asked,"Have you never heard that there was luck in throwing an old shoe?
5309She did n''t betroth herself in childhood, did she?
5309She lingered a moment as Dr. Williams stepped forward and asked,"May I be permitted to return to my home?"
5309She looked at him in silent wonder, and asked herself,"Can this be one of the Yankees of whom I have heard such horrible things?"
5309She was aware that the first question asked would be,"If you knew so much, why did n''t YOU tell?"
5309She was capable of the most devoted loyalty, but to whom should she give it?
5309She would sacrifice herself utterly for her son, and do you think she would spare me?"
5309Since we entered on the discussion of our differences could we expect him to do otherwise than present his side as strongly as he could?
5309Spose you en ole mars''r tell me dat ain''a egg"( holding one up):"kyant I see?
5309Suppose I had told Major Brockton that?
5309Suppose he had succeeded, and Lieutenant Scoville''s general came here, what mercy could we expect?
5309Suppose you both had carried out your savage impulses, and lay on this ground, wounded or dead, what would be said at the house there about me?
5309Suppose you had said,''Just remember your arm is well from this moment,''would it be well?
5309That''s more peaceful than the run, is n''t it?
5309The girl stopped and said,"Doctor, wo n''t you let Uncle Lusthah bury him to- morrow down by the run?
5309The question would at once arise,''If granted to Hanfield, why not to others?''
5309Then her uncle advanced reluctantly and this man said,"Mr. Baron, I presume?"
5309They had scarcely reached Aun''Jinkey''s door before a shadow approached and the harsh voice of Perkins asked,"What''s goin''on yere?"
5309This war may be a small thing to you, but suppose your home and family were in danger, as ours are?"
5309Trembling like a wind- shaken leaf, she stole into the garden shrubbery and whispered,"Chunk?"
5309W''at fer you so hidin''-in- de- grass, granny?
5309W''at kin you do but do ez you tole twel Marse Scoville en de Linkum gin''ral come agin?
5309W''y kyant you trus''de Lawd''bout freedom?"
5309Wa''t yo''wife wish mo''n dat you git ready fer de journey?
5309Was it a''spook,''or had the dead really come back to life?
5309Was it my fault?
5309Was that fine, manly face the visage of one of the terrible, bloodthirsty, unscrupulous Yankees?
5309Was there ever a period in your life when you should so carefully consider the consequences of your action?
5309Wat could us do wid our bar han''s agin armed men?
5309Wat cud we do?
5309Wat de use bein''blin''des on puppose?
5309Wat got inter you ter tink an ole tottery, skeered ooman lak me gwine out in de dark en knock Marse Perkins on de haid?"
5309Wat she keer?"
5309Wat we projeckin''''bout yistidy?"
5309Wat you gwine ter do wid freedom?
5309Wat''s gwine ter be de end?
5309We do n''t look very hostile though, do we?"
5309We do not fear you and those whom you control, but how about those who are to come?"
5309Were these in truth the messengers of freedom of whom they had heard so much?
5309Whar yo''patience twel de wah''ll end?
5309Whar you drap fum dis yere time?
5309What am I saying?
5309What are you, compared with that noble old colonel whose last words I have just received?
5309What can I do?
5309What can you mean?"
5309What complications did his presence portend?
5309What did it all mean?
5309What did you all predict would happen immediately when Northern soldiers came?
5309What do you think of it?"
5309What does all this mean?
5309What earthly motive could I have except your safety, welfare and happiness?"
5309What else can I do?"
5309What government has helplessly sucked its thumbs when certain portions of the territory over which it had jurisdiction defied its power?
5309What happened to the general who said you were free?
5309What if it is?
5309What is Aunt Whately coming here for this evening?"
5309What is the matter with you?
5309What kin we do eny way at dis yer time?
5309What kind of a man is this Mad Whately anyway, that he could think of taking part in such a wrong?"
5309What right, sir, have you to imbitter my life, to fill my days and nights with horror?
5309What shall I say?
5309What should she do?
5309What should you want of it?"
5309What would I care for safety after the worst had happened?
5309What would I think of myself?
5309What would be your mother''s fate, Madison, that you might gratify a causeless spite?
5309What would happen if the old order of things passed away and the abominable abolitionists obtained fall control?
5309What would my neighbors think?
5309What''s coming next?"
5309What''s the use, I say?
5309What''s your trouble to mine?
5309Whately, could you not have protected your cousin as you would your sister?
5309When he saw the deep, angry spirit of protest he threw up his hands, crying,"Wat de use?
5309Where could I go to?"
5309Where does that leave me?"
5309Where has your loyalty to me been to- day?
5309Where is Madison''s love for his mother?
5309Where is he now?
5309Where is my cousin?"
5309Where is the justice, right, or sense in such a course?
5309Where''s my pretty cousin?"
5309Where''s that nigger who saw him start?
5309Where''s the Yank?"
5309Where, indeed, with the start he had gained for the Union lines?
5309Which one was it?
5309Which way did he go?"
5309Who brung''i m back des in time ter stop dat ar mar''age en gib we uns freedom?
5309Who got''i m off safe right un''er de nose ob one ob Mad Whately''s sogers?
5309Who gwine ter keep all dem fum yo''cabin?
5309Who is she?"
5309Who so ready to fill the flowing bowl until even the rim is lost to sight, when your defenders have a few hours to spare in their hard campaigning?
5309Who took keer on''i m?
5309Who we uns befo''?
5309Whose''pinion''s wuth de mos''?
5309Why ca n''t he see this, and just act on the truth?
5309Why did n''t he?
5309Why did n''t you tell Mr. Baron?
5309Why do n''t they remember the distress and horror that would follow their mad act?
5309Why in- don''t you mind?"
5309Why not des look at tings ez dey iz?
5309Why should Chunk be so anxious to get there before I did?"
5309Why should I care?
5309Why should either of you be punished?"''
5309Why should he care?
5309Why should n''t you?
5309Why should you care so for me when I do not and can not respond at all?
5309Will eny man or ooman call deysefs free w''en dey''s slabes ter some mean, nasty vice?
5309Will not you ladies go with me?
5309Will you be very good and quiet-- not a bit excited, if I let some one else bring you your supper?"
5309Will you do me the favor of being kind to her and letting her remain undisturbed?
5309Will you not join us?
5309Will you oblige us by as good a meal as can be provided hastily?
5309Will you please rise and take your cousin by the hand?"
5309Will you tell me you are a free woman now?"
5309With something of the round- eyed curiosity and interest of a child, she looked at every new face, asking herself,"What is he like?"
5309With your brave cousin enlisting your sympathies against our side, what use would there be of my saying anything?"
5309Within less than an hour he was asking himself in bitter self- upbraiding,"What have I gained?
5309Wo n''t you let me?"
5309Won''er ef eber, like de run, she wanter go way off fum us?
5309Would England accept the doctrine of secession, and permit any part of her dominions to set up for themselves when they chose?
5309Would you mind, my child, writing some things I would like to say to my family?"
5309Yet what can he do?
5309You are aware of President Lincoln''s proclamation?"
5309You are becoming too old--""Too old, aunt?
5309You are well armed, I suppose?"
5309You have n''t any, have you?
5309You sez de min''ster en folks is comin''?
5309You surely will not use your advantage against an orphan girl?"
5309You tink I gwine ter lebe you yere en dat ladder dar ter tell de hull business?
5309You will come to me again?"
5309You would nurse me a little, Miss Baron, if I were brought in wounded, would you not?"
5309You''ll be very good and take it from me, wo n''t you?"
5309You''speck I doan know de resk Chunk en me tookin?"
5309a warnin''?"
5309broke forth Mrs. Baron indignantly--"news of the death of that Yankee whom she met and treated as a social equal sorely against my will?"
5309cried Miss Lou,"would you shoot a man in his back?"
5309dat so?
5309demand?''
5309exclaimed Whately,"what fiend directs my luck this evening?
5309gasped Mrs. Baron,"can you mean to say that you have permitted our ward to do such an indelicate thing?
5309has she broken all bounds, defied all authority, and gone utterly wild in her rebellion?"
5309how could you let her walk and talk alone with that Yankee officer?"
5309how did you know that?"
5309how shall I?"
5309if my son were a bleeding corpse or dying in agony, what would the world be to me?
5309instead of What''s my humor?
5309mother?"
5309she cried, with a strong repellant gesture,"why ca n''t YOU see and understand?
5309she exclaimed,"where''s Chunk?"
5309w''at comin''nex''?
5309w''at dat?"
5309w''at gwine ter hap''n nex''?"
5309what can I do?"
5309what shall we do?
5309what will please me?
5309what?"
5309where on earth have you been?
5309why wo n''t you see things as they are?"
5309you expect to be free, yet remain slaves to such fears?
5309you year dat, too?"
41355''How much do you get?'' 41355 A guilty conscience about what, my child?
41355Ai n''t you ashamed to ask me to speak plainly? 41355 Allow me to ask, sir, are you a candidate?"
41355Am I? 41355 Am I?
41355An''do ye know, ma''am, what the little crater did to me to- day?
41355And do you charge it as a fault in my character?
41355And do you know what the red fluid was?
41355And how will the war end?
41355And what then? 41355 And what would be the good of it if we should get into those forms?"
41355And where is Miss Ravenel?
41355And which do you think would beat?
41355And you do n''t want a wedding tour?
41355And you have not broached it to her?
41355Are all the people here?
41355Are there any wounded?
41355Are there?
41355Are they not horrible, these New England isms? 41355 Are you a gymnast, Colonel?"
41355Are you as much scared at the general as your officers are at you?
41355Are you going, papa?
41355Are you going?
41355Are you hurt, Captain?
41355Are you hurt? 41355 Are you in search of a new planet?"
41355Are you not ashamed,she said,"to let me catch you tyrannizing over my native city?"
41355Are you not going to ask in our colored friends?
41355Are you positively serious in making me that proposition?
41355Are you sure you can hold him? 41355 Are you-- is it possible!--are you related to Doctor Edward Colburne of this place who died fourteen or fifteen years ago?"
41355Aurait il découvert,she continued to meditate;"ce petit liaison de monsieur le colonel?
41355But I can not go alone, you perceive; do you not?
41355But how are_ you_? 41355 But how are_ you_?"
41355But how can this fellow have such a political influence?
41355But how if the superintendency ca n''t be had without the colonelcy?
41355But how shall we become triangular, or circular, or star- shaped, or cruciform?
41355But how to light it? 41355 But how will the South stand a contest of five or six years?"
41355But if you are a staff- officer and on detached service?
41355But is it exactly nice to stay forever in a hotel? 41355 But is it not a very wicked city?"
41355But is there no list of killed and wounded? 41355 But suppose Ravvie had become really sick?"
41355But what are you all about?
41355But what the---- do you want to whitewash him for? 41355 But what will become of you?
41355But why did n''t Major Rathbun have him tried for his old offences? 41355 But why did you live in Louisiana if it was such a Sodom, papa?"
41355But why not have some other material?
41355But why?--_why?_ Perhaps he can explain it. 41355 But, papa,"she presently inquired,"will this support you as well as the hospital?"
41355Ca n''t we do it, or some of it, for him?
41355Ca n''t you telegraph for your trunk?
41355Can I do any thing for you, Captain? 41355 Can I see the baby?"
41355Can you afford it, my dear?
41355Cap, what shall I do?
41355Captain Colburne,he said on another occasion,"how about your property returns?
41355Colonel, do you think we shall go into quarters?
41355Colonel, would n''t you like to go on a pic- nic?
41355Could a fellow smoke?
41355Did n''t the assault succeed?
41355Did n''t they speak to you, papa?
41355Did you give it into her own hands?
41355Did you see it yourself, Lieutenant?
41355Do n''t you find it hot?
41355Do n''t you know that I should be ashamed to look her in the face?
41355Do n''t you perceive that I lose my Governorship?
41355Do n''t you see that these were not built by New Bostonians?
41355Do n''t you see them on the right of your position?
41355Do you anticipate such immediate danger?
41355Do you ask for the sake of argument, or for information?
41355Do you know who the offender is?
41355Do you know,she continued, after a scarcely perceptible hesitation,"that I am not so fond of flowers as I was once?
41355Do you know?
41355Do you really think that you are going to New Orleans?
41355Do you suppose that he does n''t like to talk about Colonel Carter? 41355 Do you suppose, Colonel, that the rebels can resist for five or six years?"
41355Do you think I am getting musty?
41355Do you think I am in my dotage?
41355Do you think it best?
41355Do you think peace is proclaimed?
41355Do you think you see people enough?
41355Do you want a chance to domineer over him?
41355Do you want any one, Colonel?
41355Do you want to go back to New Orleans?
41355Do you? 41355 Doctor, have you not thought it odd sometimes that I never consult you professionally?"
41355Doctor, is n''t he an uncommonly handsome child?
41355Does he look like his grandfather?
41355General, have you thought of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ?
41355Going!--Oh, going where?
41355Has he been sick?
41355Have you any idea who it was?
41355Have you been fighting, too? 41355 Have you seen him?"
41355Havn''t_ we_ lost property?
41355How are the saddle- pockets, Cato?
41355How can I tell, my dear? 41355 How can you love poetry without loving flowers?"
41355How could she choose such a husband, so old, so worldly, so immoral? 41355 How could you stay out so?
41355How did he discover it?
41355How do you feel, General?
41355How healthy, and strong, and big he is?
41355How is he?
41355How is my boy Jerry? 41355 How many?"
41355How so? 41355 How''s this?"
41355How_ can_ you say so?
41355I dare say his hair will protect him; wo n''t it?
41355I say, Cap, if the enemy are in force, what are we to do?
41355I wonder where Lieutenant- Colonel Carter is?
41355If you find yourself near a post- office you will let us know it, wo n''t you?
41355Intelligent? 41355 Is Captain Colburne unhurt?"
41355Is Miss Ravenel going?
41355Is Mrs. Carter sheltered?
41355Is he? 41355 Is he?"
41355Is it possible that I have been unjust?
41355Is it possible?
41355Is it really over?
41355Is my hamper ready?
41355Is n''t he pretty?
41355Is n''t he sweet?
41355Is n''t he sweet?
41355Is that all you wear in this season?
41355Is that you, Doctor?
41355Is that your style of conducting a court- martial? 41355 Is the Major- General pleasant?"
41355Is there no other force about here?
41355It does n''t look very bad, does it?
41355It must be,answered Lillie as he went out; and then thought with a blush,"Will papa laugh at me if I am mistaken?"
41355May I ask what part of the South you have resided in?
41355May I write to you when I am away?
41355Men of the world, are they? 41355 Miss Ravenel, have you any messages for New Orleans?"
41355Mr. Walker, if it is sure to pay so well, why do n''t you go in alone?
41355Must we leave our plantation, then?
41355My dear fellow, why wo n''t you undress and go to bed? 41355 My dear, why do you distress yourself so?
41355My dear,_ have_ you gone back to your babyhood? 41355 Nobody else, papa?"
41355Not aware of it? 41355 Not even if I would promise to study mineralogy also?"
41355Now then, will you promise to take a bath and go regularly to bed as soon as I leave you?
41355Oh, what shall I do without you?
41355Oh, where have you been? 41355 Oh, you_ will_ inquire, papa?"
41355On which side, Colonel Carter?
41355Papa, are we going to stay in New Boston forever?
41355Papa, do you believe that Mouton has fifteen thousand men? 41355 Papa, have you been in the parlor this morning?"
41355Pic- nic?--political thing? 41355 Shall I go for help, Captain?"
41355Shall I send him to you to implore your consent?
41355Shall you? 41355 Sick, sir?
41355Sir?
41355So officers can be detached for such purposes? 41355 So we shall beat them?"
41355Tell me, Mrs. Carter,he resumed,"what is it that Mr. Whitewood is to keep secret?"
41355Then how can you advise my father to go into a thing which you call_ vin ordinaire_?
41355Then may he not write to me?
41355Then why did you call him a hollyhock?
41355Then why do you introduce the subject?
41355Violence? 41355 Well, Mr. Brayton, what was the cause of the firing?"
41355Well, how are you?
41355Well, what will you have for dinner? 41355 Well; what is it?"
41355Were you absolutely exiled, sir?
41355Were you acquainted with the McAllisters?
41355Were you in danger of violence before you left New Orleans?
41355Whar my ole man?
41355What are you doing up here?
41355What are you going to call him?
41355What are you lying whimpering there for?
41355What can I do for you?
41355What did I tell you?
41355What did he have to say?
41355What did that mean? 41355 What do you know about my condition?"
41355What do you mean by such hair as that, sir?
41355What do you suppose the old army will think of the negro regiment plan?
41355What do you talk about your tombstone for? 41355 What do you think?
41355What for? 41355 What good be they?"
41355What if he_ would_ marry some one else?--Is it not a humiliating confession?--Do you know what is left to a woman then? 41355 What in God''s name shall I do?"
41355What in Heaven''s name did you let her in here for?
41355What is it?
41355What is it?
41355What is the matter with Mauma Major?
41355What is the matter, my darling?
41355What is the matter?
41355What is the matter?
41355What is the matter?
41355What is the situation?
41355What is the wooden- spoon?
41355What makes you sad? 41355 What makes you voyage north?"
41355What shall I do with myself?
41355What shall we do?
41355What would Mrs. Carter say to it?
41355What''s a gwine to come of you an''Miss Lillie?
41355What-- how did she look?
41355When does your father return?
41355When will you come back?
41355When would Mr. Carter be able to visit them?
41355When?
41355Where are all these fellows?
41355Where are we to live?
41355Where are you going?
41355Where is Doctor Elderkin''s?
41355Where is Mrs. Carter, aunty?
41355Where is the company, Lieutenant?
41355Where''s Gazaway? 41355 Which do you find the most agreeable,"she asked,"the white people of New Orleans, or the brown?"
41355Who are the other field officers?
41355Who are they?
41355Who did I see out? 41355 Who did you see in the streets?
41355Who did you see out, papa?
41355Who ever heard of using silk for mourning?
41355Who is that?
41355Who is to inform? 41355 Who was the man?"
41355Whom did you see there?
41355Why are you so sad?
41355Why ca n''t she be satisfied with loving me?
41355Why ca n''t she continue to live with me?
41355Why did n''t you tell me this before?
41355Why did n''t you write to us that you were sick?
41355Why do n''t you do something?
41355Why do n''t you marry?
41355Why do n''t you?
41355Why not follow it up? 41355 Why not have a private sale?"
41355Why not make some of your men do it?
41355Why not use white silk, or something?
41355Why not? 41355 Why not?
41355Why not?
41355Why slightly? 41355 Why so?"
41355Why were you not frank with me,_ mon ami_? 41355 Why, Ravenel;--didn''t you know?"
41355Why? 41355 Why?
41355Will they all get on board this boat?
41355Will you come back every five minutes and let me see you?
41355Will you promise not to get hurt?
41355Will you smoke?
41355Will you? 41355 Will you?
41355Would you accept it for yourself?
41355Would you be good enough to lend me your gun for a few moments?
41355Wound? 41355 You are not very angry with me?"
41355You do n''t mean that there''s no hope for him?
41355You have taken the oath of allegiance-- haven''t you?
41355_ Would_ you be so kind?
41355''But,''said I,''do n''t you see that you spoil my glory?
41355''How can I punish my men,''says the Captain,''for doing what I do myself?''
41355( By the way, did I tell you that I am a graduate of Columbia College?)
41355--Can you imagine anything more astoundingly wicked than such a petition?
41355--Shortly afterward she asked,"How soon will he talk?"
41355After a moment''s hesitation he added anxiously,"Do you remember your invitation to me?"
41355All in running order?"
41355Am I intruding?"
41355And give up your hospital?"
41355And how is Mrs. Carter?
41355And how soon do you think I will get a letter?"
41355And if this were so, if an army of several thousand Texan riflemen occupied this strong position, how should it be carried?
41355And then, as she thought of his perfections, she went tremblingly back to the inquiry, Did he love her?
41355And what did he say?"
41355And, if the civil office can be founded, you will accept it; is it not so?"
41355Any thing on the bulletin- board?"
41355Are you a Louisianian?"
41355Are you aware, Captain, that a rifle has been fired this morning, outside the camps, in violation of general orders?"
41355Are you going to make New Boston a permanent place of residence?"
41355Are you interested in these matters?
41355At New Orleans?"
41355At another time it was,"Papa, did Mr. Carter ever tell you about his first campaign against the Indians?"
41355At the age of seven she had propounded the question,"Mamma, why do n''t they make papa President of the United States?"
41355At times she defended herself, asking the honest and rational question, How could she help loving this man?
41355Besides,--shall I avow it?--what if I can not marry the man of my choice?"
41355Boat it, eh?
41355Brayton?"
41355But Lillie soon asked him,"What is the matter with you, papa?"
41355But are there not exceptions to all rules, even moral ones?
41355But do you suppose that we in these times ever fight hand to hand?
41355But for what regiment?
41355But how are we to live in the house without money?"
41355But was she lost?
41355But what are we to do about punishing the masses?
41355But what can a woman do?
41355But what right have we to demand that we shall be happy?
41355But what to do?
41355But what was I to do?
41355But what was even this to that other question of union or separation for life?
41355But when her father came in from a walk, it was,"Papa, did you see Mr. Carter anywhere?
41355But why should Mr. Colburne win the kind regards of Miss Ravenel?
41355But would you have the kindness to inquire whether this superintendency could not be established without attaching to it the military position?"
41355But, by the way, how did this fellow get outside your camp- guard with his gun?
41355By ANTHONY TROLLOPE, Author of"Can You Forgive Her?"
41355By the way, did I mention to you that I am a graduate of Columbia College in New York City?
41355By the way, he was perfectly well when you saw him, was n''t he?"
41355By the way, how are you?
41355By the way, it is n''t Sunday, is it?
41355By the way, what are the names of the boats?
41355By the way, who was the fellow who was shot?"
41355Ca n''t you see it?
41355Ca n''t you understand it?
41355Colburne bade them good evening, but on reaching the door stopped and said,"Do you feel safe here?"
41355Colburne nodded, smiled and stopped, saying,"Can I do anything for you?"
41355Colburne rose and called out,"Do you surrender?"
41355Colburne?"
41355Colburne?"
41355Colonel, is that perfectly to your satisfaction?"
41355Could I not be made superintendent of negro labor without being burdened with the military dignity?
41355Could it be Captain Colburne?
41355Could it be that she would come to forgive that man?
41355D.?"
41355Did Bull Run give you such an opinion of the superior fighting qualities of the southerners?"
41355Did he see that tent made out of a blanket?
41355Did n''t you hear any thing?"
41355Did n''t you like them?
41355Did n''t you see any body?
41355Did they see the child in the carriage?"
41355Did you know that I was going on this boat?
41355Did you never read of Austerlitz and Jena and Waterloo?
41355Did you say forty?"
41355Did you thank the people?
41355Do n''t you believe in State rights, Mr. Colburne?
41355Do n''t you know that you are almost delirious on this subject?"
41355Do n''t you know that you are responsible for the firing of this rifle?"
41355Do n''t you like it?"
41355Do n''t you remember the red fluid?"
41355Do n''t you see the resemblance?"
41355Do n''t you take part in it?"
41355Do n''t you think so, sir?--Where was I?
41355Do n''t you think that the fighting is over?"
41355Do n''t you, sir?"
41355Do n''t you?"
41355Do they ever dissect babies?"
41355Do they understand our capacities, duties and destinies?
41355Do you actually want to have me?"
41355Do you always do it this way in New Boston?
41355Do you believe that our loss will be very heavy?
41355Do you believe that our side"( she could call it_ our_ side now)"will be beaten?
41355Do you believe that there will be a great battle?
41355Do you call that a suitable punishment?
41355Do you compare him to a vegetable?"
41355Do you not pity me?
41355Do you recollect how I have laughed about Elderkin for this same trick?
41355Do you see that angle?
41355Do you suppose I am recruiting for rebel regiments?"
41355Do you think I an going to let myself be disgraced?
41355Doctor, will you do it?"
41355Does anybody remember the dinner speeches on board of Sir Charles Napier''s flagship, just before the Baltic fleet set out for Cronstadt?
41355Does n''t it look reproachfully clean compared with me?
41355Ever at Cairo?
41355Everybody says poky; and it is real poky in you to pretend not to understand it; do n''t you think so yourself now?
41355Finally, where else in the United States should we find a prettier or pleasanter little city?"
41355For a moment Carter''s deep voice returned to him, as, fixing his stern eyes on the chaplain, he answered,"Do n''t bother!--where is the brigade?"
41355From this distance he called out, ironically,"I say, Yank, have you heard from Brashear City?"
41355Had Whitewood succeeded, or failed, or not tried?
41355Had he been too hasty in dragging her away from New Orleans, and giving up the moderate salary which was so necessary to them both?
41355Had he lost his place at the hospital?
41355Had he offended Mrs. Carter?
41355Had n''t we better look up a doctor''s shop?
41355Had they gone to Canada or Europe to escape the jealous and exacting loyalty of New England?
41355Has our loss been heavy?
41355Have n''t you already inquired?
41355Have you any spare arms?"
41355Have you failed in getting your promotion?
41355Have you had your breakfast?"
41355Have you lost your memory?"
41355Have you recovered from your wound?"
41355He almost had a return of his vexation when Lillie commenced upon him about her husband, asking,"Is n''t it time to hear, papa?
41355He could live; but could he marry?
41355He wants to do right, but how is he to know what is right?
41355Here, where''s that Louisianny Lieutenant?
41355His room must be on the sunny side, papa-- hear?"
41355How came you to escape?
41355How can you say that to me, a native of it?"
41355How can you wonder, papa, that I allow myself to look down on them a little?"
41355How could I help myself?
41355How could I?
41355How could a mere Major ever hope to go before the people successfully as a candidate for Congress?
41355How could he answer any one of these horrible questions?
41355How could they believe in the things themselves?
41355How could you be so silly?"
41355How could you come away?"
41355How could you do it?
41355How do you go?"
41355How is Mrs. Carter, and the little boy?"
41355How is that?"
41355How is that?"
41355How should she behave under these trying circumstances?
41355I have too much delicacy to ask one of those young ones to stroll off with me in the bushes.--Won''t you have a segar?
41355I turned to the gentleman who shared my seat and said,''Sir, will you have the goodness to tell me where this train is going?''
41355If ever you go out into the world alone, what will become of you?
41355If he would go, it was,"When will you come back?"
41355If it should be so that she had given him cause of anger, how could she make peace with him without demeaning herself?
41355If she were his wife, how could he support her?
41355If the race is benefited by it, why not the individual?
41355Is he as sick as he was at Donnelsonville?
41355Is he?"
41355Is it not utterly amazing?
41355Is it possible?
41355Is it the greater proportion of native blood which causes the cowardice?''
41355Is n''t it a beautiful story?"
41355Is n''t it clear that Pompey''s men began to run away when they got within about ten feet of Cæsar''s?"
41355Is n''t it curious how the poor fellows will be around on their pins, and in their clothes till they die?
41355Is not this the true secret of life?"
41355Is that fighting?
41355Is there anything strange in a man of forty being agreeable?
41355It is perfectly honorable, is it?"
41355It was,"Papa, do you think there will be an active campaign this summer?
41355It was,"Papa, how can the Government be so stupid as to neglect men who know their duties?
41355It''s pretty justice, is n''t it?"
41355Jackson?"
41355Lapped in sweet influences of peace all her loving life, why must she be called to death amid the clamor of murderous contests?
41355Larue?"
41355Lieutenant-- I beg your pardon-- I see you are wounded-- I hope you''re not much hurt, sir-- but have you a drop of the article about the battery?
41355Lillie would not have refused him: it would not have been in the nature of woman: what girl would put off a lover who was going to the battle- field?
41355May I ask you to pledge your word?"
41355May it not have been the chaos(_ vide_ Milton) through which Satan floundered?
41355Meanwhile how about Mrs. Larue?
41355Might I spake t''ye?"
41355Moreover, Colburne asked himself, what right had he to talk if he did not fight?
41355Mr. Colburne, do n''t you think he is too bad?
41355Mr. Van Zandt, did you pass the order to every regiment last evening?"
41355My dear, what did you ever mean by saying that you are not good enough for me?
41355No crowd collected; the men were hardened to such tragedies; four or five bore the victim away; the rest asked,"Who is it?"
41355Not aware of such a deficiency of equipment in your own regiment?"
41355Now could not that point be evaded?
41355Now he is n''t very bad; is he?
41355Now how the devil can these old girls, who have lived long enough to be able to put two and two together, be so dem''d inconsistent?
41355Now what is the punishment that you have allotted to him?
41355Now who will sacrifice himself for his country?
41355Now who would suppose that the Doctor had in his mind all the while a moral lecture to Colburne?
41355Now why was not the young man informed of the real state of affairs in the family?
41355Oh, I though you would come an hour ago?"
41355Oh, Miss Ravenel, I was about to ask you, did you know the Slidells?"
41355Once, after a few moments of silence and revery, she said with an air of earnest feeling,"Is it not a horrible fate for a woman-- solitude?
41355Or do they look upon us from what might be called a pismire point of view?"
41355Papa, do n''t you suppose that Mr. Carter will be allowed to keep his brigade at Thibodeaux?"
41355Promise me that; wo n''t you?"
41355Said I,''What are you doing?''"
41355Shall I send him to the rear?"
41355Should he destroy the letter?
41355Should he give it to Mrs. Larue and crush her?
41355Should he send it to Carter?
41355Should he show it to Lillie?
41355So little?
41355So old Whitewood is no longer the exact model of all the New Bostonians?"
41355So why not give up your mayoralty and go in for the autumn campaign?
41355So you like people who go after you?
41355Still, he looked quite nervous and apprehensive as he said,"What is it, my child?"
41355Suppose General Banks attacks Port Hudson, wo n''t he be obliged to leave Colonel Carter to defend the Lafourche Interior?
41355Suppose I had had the misfortune of being born in the Isle of Pines; would you have me therefore be the apologist of piracy?
41355Suppose the brigade is ordered into the field, will it not, being the best brigade, be always kept in reserve, out of the range of fire?"
41355Suppose the snakes persisted in going about in their last year''s skins?
41355That''s something like hanging homely old women for witches.--By the way, how are the Allstons?
41355The cry of his mother''s heart was,"My son, how can I let thee go?"
41355The question comes up,''Which shall we hang, and which shall we pardon?''
41355Then followed in rapid succession,"Suppose the brigade leaves Thibodeaux, where will it go to?
41355Then, after a moment''s hesitation,"When did you come in?"
41355They ai n''t going to attack the fort, be they?"
41355They are very charming, are they not?"
41355This is the ordinary sort of thing, at least in New Boston:--_ Lady._( smiling) Did you go out yesterday?
41355To keep out of the fighting?"
41355Was Lillie to be married to young Whitewood, or some other conveniently propinquitous admirer?
41355Was it treasonable indifference, or levity, or the sublimity of modesty?
41355Was n''t it capital?
41355Was n''t the Hartford Convention held in New England?"
41355Was she not queen and goddess, Semiramis and Juno?
41355Was she to be ignored, cut, satirized, because she was her father''s daughter?
41355Was she unhappy in her marriage, or widowed, or dead?
41355Was that positively all that you heard?
41355Was this the reward that her love for her native city, her defence of Louisiana in the midst of Yankee- land, had deserved?
41355We ca n''t go back to New Orleans at present; and where else should we go?
41355We gained a victory there; we took an important step towards the end of the Rebellion; but at what cost, through what means, and by whose merit?
41355We owe you so much!--Isn''t it strange that I should be saying such things to you?
41355Well, are they?
41355Well, but what are the probabilities?"
41355Were the Ravenels sick or dead?
41355Were they offended at something which he had written?
41355What are the probabilities?"
41355What are you so patient for?"
41355What business had she to let herself be circumscribed by the limits of such a diminutive creature?
41355What can an army officer know about steam engines or hulls?"
41355What can he do?
41355What could a fellow do, he asked, when a woman would persist in flinging herself at his head?
41355What could it be about?
41355What could the unfortunate man do but be grateful?
41355What did he mean by leaving her alone so, without anybody to speak a word to?
41355What do you do here?
41355What do you say to it now?
41355What do you think are the probabilities?
41355What do you think of that?"
41355What do you think, papa?
41355What do you think?
41355What does a soldier want of black cravats and daguerreotypes and diaries and Testaments?"
41355What does a woman need more?
41355What else should he do?
41355What for?
41355What harm would he choose to do?"
41355What has happened?"
41355What has kept you so long?
41355What have you sacrificed?
41355What if he should get the active brigade?
41355What is the earliest time that I can call without inconveniencing you?"
41355What is the usual proportion of killed in a battle?
41355What is there to save you from suicide but old- rye?
41355What is your opinion of female doctors?"
41355What is your opinion, sir?"
41355What object had she in keeping him at home and out of danger?
41355What other quality, physical or moral, have we that could take the place of this beneficently despotic instinct?
41355What profession may I ask?"
41355What right had Fate to put such questions to him?
41355What right had the fellow to make the movements and inclinations of that woman''s soul an object of curiosity and a topic of conversation?
41355What right had you to be a blonde?"
41355What right has Captain Colburne to demand roses or potatoes of land which has been sown for centuries with nothing but thistles?
41355What the devil are you staying at home for when the whole nation is arming, or will soon have to arm?"
41355What was the use?"
41355What will my share be?"
41355When do you suppose the battle will happen?
41355When he went out it was,"Where are you going?
41355When shall we get the first news?
41355When shall we get the particulars?"
41355When will you come back?"
41355When you said pic- nic, how could I suppose that it was a Sabbath- school excursion?
41355Where did they come from, and where were they going, and what would be the result?
41355Where is he?"
41355Where''s the heroic Major of the Tenth?
41355Where?"
41355Where_ you_ from?"
41355Which is the easiest?
41355Which is the greater of the two crimes?
41355While Colburne was feeling so strongly with regard to Lillie, could she not devote a sentiment to him?
41355Whitewood?"
41355Who else is there in all New Orleans?"
41355Who the devil is Darwin?
41355Who will make the niggers in uniform respectable?
41355Why did I let her go on that silly expedition?
41355Why did he leave me so in the dark?"
41355Why did he not act in accordance with these truly chivalrous sentiments?
41355Why did n''t he tell me that he was going?
41355Why did n''t you ask him to repeat it?"
41355Why do n''t business men take advantage of the opportunity?"
41355Why do n''t they demand five hundred?
41355Why do n''t you come and do something?
41355Why do n''t you do your office on the Lieutenant- Colonel?"
41355Why do n''t you go into the army?
41355Why is it that these grown women are so fond of the society of these students?
41355Why not fall into one of the new regiments which his gallant little State was organizing to continue the struggle?
41355Why not?
41355Why should he not relate it to a stranger who was evidently capable of sympathising with those sentiments and appreciating those convictions?
41355Why then did not Colburne decline the invitation?
41355Why then should I strain my conscience by asserting broadly and positively that Miss Ravenel was a first class beauty?
41355Why will you all be so square?"
41355Why will you do it?
41355Why, Victorine, where can papa be?"
41355Why, sir, do you fully realize what it is to strike an officer, and especially an officer on duty?
41355Why, where was Patterson?"
41355Why-- Governor-- are you aware-- are you perfectly aware why he left the regiment?"
41355Will the General dare to found such an office, and set aside public money for its salary?
41355Will you accept it?"
41355Will you be careful of yourself?
41355Will you come back?
41355Will you do it?"
41355Will you ever come back?
41355Will you go with me?"
41355Will you have it?"
41355Will you instruct me?"
41355Will you not be persuaded?
41355Will you not stop where you are?"
41355Will you take a glass of brandy?
41355Would n''t I knock his head off?
41355Would n''t you stand by Barataria in any and every case?"
41355Would she ever forgive him, and take him back to her heart?
41355Would you, sir, have the goodness to load it for me?"
41355Yes, he would always love her-- and she would always, always, always love him; and what more was there to desire?
41355You are a college man, ai nt you?
41355You are certain that it is our Captain Colburne?"
41355You are not going to the field?"
41355You did n''t suppose they would maltreat a brother West Pointer, did you?"
41355You do n''t know?
41355You do n''t understand that?
41355You must n''t leave me; it''s for your own good-- hear?
41355You must n''t trust yourself to anybody else-- hear?"
41355You wo n''t demand it of me, will you?"
41355You wo n''t get killed, will you?
41355You wo n''t?
41355You''re a college man, ai nt you?
41355You''ve heard of the girl he calls his cousin?
41355Young lady as blooming and blushing as ever?
41355_ Could_ I persuade you to forget the dear departed?''"
41355_ Had_ she offended him by her manner, or by what she had said, or failed to say?
41355_ Is_ the former a crime?
41355_ Lady._ Many people in the streets?
41355_ Lady._ Where?
41355_ Sullivan._ Are ye dead, Sweeney?
41355_ Sullivan._ Did ye see that dead rebel with his oye out?
41355_ Why_ do you hate him so?"
41355and when he returned it was,"Where have you been?"
41355and"What did he say?"
41355and"Who did you see?"
41355do n''t you suppose he had a soul?"
41355how are you?
41355how can I let you go?"
41355how long have you been in this way?"
41355how_ are_ you, my old boy?"
41355paid you adieux?"
41355that you, Cap?
41355to the same Gazaway?
41355what do you suppose your duties are?"
41355what is it?"
41355who comes there?"
41355why has he gone?
41355will he?"
41355you belong to the Tenth?"
41355you never saw it?"
11904''Did my wife write to you?'' 11904 ''Did you write a letter to my wife, Colonel?''
11904''I won it fairly, and I''m going to stake it all on one last bet''"''Is Ormond your name?''
11904''So you''ve got the lapsy- palls, have you?'' 11904 ''Sure cure for the lapsy- palls,''said Kemp; and, turning his glare on the rest of the shivering line:''Anybody else got''em?''
11904''You have a letter: saying she is very sick?'' 11904 ''_ And_ you want to go to the hospital?''
11904''_ Must_ you go so soon? 11904 About a-- a desk and a salary-- in my brother- in- law''s office?"
11904About her uncle?
11904Admirable?
11904Admire him?
11904Ailsa Paige?
11904Ailsa, dear, is anything wrong?
11904Ailsa, may I speak to you a moment?
11904Ailsa?
11904Am I to have them?
11904Am I very fine, Burgess? 11904 Am I?"
11904And Zarathustra asked:''Where dwells the soul throughout the second night after the body''s death?'' 11904 And he said:''What else is the matter?''
11904And how about the Zouaves?
11904And now that I have the courage-- or effrontery-- to write you once more, will you misconstrue my letter-- and my motive? 11904 And were you?"
11904And you find him personally agreeable?
11904And you never-- received-- receive-- letters?
11904Are the rebels_ there_?
11904Are there two?
11904Are these mine?
11904Are you Colonel Arran?
11904Are you a government detective?
11904Are you asleep?
11904Are you awake at last to the deviltry that stirred you-- the damnable, misguided, distorted conscience that twisted you into a murderer of souls? 11904 Are you badly hurt, sir?"
11904Are you beginning to co''t me again, Curt?
11904Are you faint?
11904Are you going to let me go away with that for my answer?
11904Are you here, Philip?
11904Are you making fun of Brooklyn, or of me?
11904Are you thinking of enlisting, sir?
11904Are you tired, Curt?
11904Are you to be trusted?
11904Are you-- married?
11904Aw-- w''ats der matter wit youse, Doc.?'' 11904 Back?"
11904Because he-- looks like a gentleman?
11904Berkley, do you know me?
11904Berkley, do you suppose that I have entered upon this matter lightly?
11904Berkley? 11904 Burgess,"he said,"did you ever notice how hard it is for the frailer things to die?
11904But you did n''t?
11904But-- you_ did_ it?
11904But_ is n''t_ he perfectly fascinating? 11904 By an overseer?"
11904Ca n''t I make a bet with my own money if I want to? 11904 Ca n''t I stay as long as my husband and son are here?
11904Can I do anything for you at Wilmington?
11904Can you forgive me?
11904Can you hear what they are shouting?
11904Can you tell me why you will not marry me?
11904Can you think evil of a people who po''out their hearts in prayer and praise? 11904 Can_ I_ help you?"
11904Celia, is that you?
11904Celia,she said, looking up,"would you mind telling me what it is that you dislike about my old and very dear friend, Colonel Arran?"
11904Celia?
11904Cold decks?
11904Colonel Arran,she said coolly,"is it necessa''y fo''me to request yo''permission befo''I am allowed to move Philip Berkley to my own house?"
11904Could I marry Ailsa Craig unless I first told her that my father and my mother were never married?
11904Could any lady get ready in time to take the noon train for Washington?
11904Could n''t you stand it?
11904Could you direct us to the offices of the Sanitary Commission?
11904Could you lift me in your arms?
11904Cry? 11904 Curt, is business so plaguey poor because of all these politics?"
11904Curt?
11904DEAR LETTY:Why not try some physician''s office?"
11904DEAR MR. BERKLEY:Am I not to see you again?
11904DEAR MR. BERKLEY:Could you come for me after the theatre this evening?
11904DEAR MR. BERKLEY:Do you wish me to?
11904Davis?
11904Dear,he said,"do you believe he went to Ailsa with his story about you?"
11904Dear,he said,"do you understand that I can never marry you?"
11904Dear-- I ca n''t, can I?
11904Did I appear to be very much agitated? 11904 Did I?
11904Did anything-- kill it?
11904Did n''t anybody tell you she is there? 11904 Did n''t you do it?
11904Did n''t you know it?
11904Did n''t you tell me at Alexandria that you hated him?
11904Did our hospital burn?
11904Did that strike you as humorous?
11904Did they get the bullet?
11904Did they?
11904Did you come to speak to me, Ailsa?
11904Did you hear those dirty Bucktail veterans back there poking fun at us? 11904 Did you know I was here?"
11904Did you know that your friend John Casson was dead? 11904 Did you like him?"
11904Did you lose it?
11904Did-- had anybody told you I was here?
11904Do n''t you know if you got licked?
11904Do n''t you know it?
11904Do n''t you know,he said,"that I have seen you, day after day, intimately associated with the woman I love?
11904Do n''t you like him-- still?
11904Do n''t you really believe it, Mr. Berkley? 11904 Do n''t you really want an unreliable servant?"
11904Do n''t you remember that I once asked you if you needed an able- bodied man?
11904Do n''t you remember, Philip? 11904 Do n''t you suppose I ought to know?
11904Do n''t you want your independence?
11904Do n''t you_ know_ I can not marry?
11904Do n''t you_ want_ to do anything else?
11904Do what? 11904 Do you approve his coming-- this way-- without anybody inviting him?"
11904Do you believe I care about anything else in the world-- now?
11904Do you doubt it?
11904Do you happen to know him, Colonel Arran?
11904Do you hear that? 11904 Do you know how much money I''ve made this week?"
11904Do you know what this means to me? 11904 Do you know what you are saying?"
11904Do you know where my regiment is? 11904 Do you know where they come from?"
11904Do you like him?
11904Do you mean Colonel Arran?
11904Do you mean it?
11904Do you need a servant? 11904 Do you not think I have learned by this time that vengeance is God''s-- and that He never takes it?
11904Do you really believe it, Letty?
11904Do you understand what you''ve done? 11904 Do you want to stay here all night?"
11904Do you?
11904Does anybody ever look at us after you come into a room?
11904Does anybody in this hospital use bad language?
11904Does anybody understand, Steve?
11904Does he-- does he strike you as being-- well, say, irresponsible-- perhaps I may even say reckless?
11904Does n''t he?
11904Drive you away?
11904Dying?
11904For-- what?
11904Gawd,said the zouave,"you got a dirty jab on your cocanut, did n''t you?"
11904Go on,he said coolly,"what else do you conclude me to be?"
11904Go where?
11904God knows I am not trying to teach you secession, but suppose the guns on Governor''s Island were suddenly swung round and pointed at this street? 11904 God?"
11904Going where?
11904Going?
11904Has anybody a toy cannon and a little flag?
11904Has anybody darned Paige''s stockings?
11904Has anything happened to him?
11904Hath not the morning dawned with added light? 11904 Have I any fever?"
11904Have n''t you heard from Ailsa yet?
11904Have you any doubts concerning what my attorneys have told you? 11904 Have you been much under fire?"
11904Have you been pretending?
11904Have you heard about Stephen Craig?
11904Have you heard from your mother?
11904Have you seen Colonel Arran?
11904Have you seen-- her?
11904Have you thought of enlisting?
11904Have you?
11904He has not come, then?
11904He may get well?
11904Hello, Burgess,he said humorously;"how are you making out?"
11904His qualities?
11904Honey- bud, darling,she whispered tearfully,"did you know the Lancers are leaving?"
11904How are you feeling, dear? 11904 How are you going to get there?
11904How could she feel otherwise?
11904How did you get into this mob?
11904How did you happen to think of him at all?
11904How did you know it was I?
11904How did you know?
11904How did your father come to do that? 11904 How do you do, Camilla?
11904How do you mean?
11904How grace this Hallowed Day? 11904 How is Stephen?"
11904How long do you stay with the Craigs, Ailsa?
11904How many?
11904How much of a relation is he, Celia?
11904How shall we grace the Day? 11904 How?"
11904I ca n''t, can I? 11904 I did n''t want to tell you, Phil-- until you were better----""Tell me what?"
11904I do n''t understand-- I do n''t, truly,she stammered;"d- do you wish me to-- leave-- the Canterbury?
11904I forgot what I was reading----He said, thoughtfully:"Did you ever hear exactly how my mother died, Celia?
11904I may ask more than that of you?
11904I suppose you like my cigars, and my brandy and my linen?
11904I tell you that there is nothing good left living in me:And if it were true; did you never hear of a resurrection?"
11904I think there is nothing more to be said between us, Colonel Arran?
11904I thought-- then why do you----"Why? 11904 I told you to cut out the''sir,''did n''t I?"
11904I wonder how we did it?
11904I-- thought----"Do you want to go?
11904If I had a chance--He turned on Berkley:"Why do n''t you, enlist?
11904Intellectual?
11904Is Ailsa here?
11904Is Colonel Arran likely to recover, doctor?
11904Is Dr. Benton here still?
11904Is Paigecourt-- your own house-- ah-- occupied?
11904Is he a better kind of a man than you thought him at first?
11904Is he all right?
11904Is he cultivated?
11904Is he going to get well?
11904Is he very bad, Berkley?
11904Is he well bred?
11904Is he worse?
11904Is he-- mortally hurt?
11904Is his father living?
11904Is it an attack on this place?
11904Is it becoming?
11904Is it dreadful of me to think this? 11904 Is it ended yet, Curt?"
11904Is it not true, soldier?
11904Is n''t Ailsa Paige the most enchanting creature you ever saw? 11904 Is n''t it bad breeding to try?"
11904Is that Marye- mead?
11904Is that final?
11904Is that the hospital?
11904Is that the kind of man you suppose me? 11904 Is that true, father?"
11904Is that your decision, Berkley?
11904Is that-- to be the-- end?
11904Is that--- your reason?
11904Is the fort holding out?
11904Is there another chair?
11904Is there any forgiveness for me?
11904Is there any of that corn whisky?
11904Is there any reason on God''s earth why I could ever forgive you?
11904Is there anything else you are concealing?
11904Is there indeed a door Where the old pastimes with their joyful noise And all the merry round of Christmas joys Can enter as of yore? 11904 Is there no end to your self- murder?
11904Is there one? 11904 Is there-- anything-- you wish to tell me?
11904Is you- all gwine bresh up, suh?
11904Is your Colonel all right?
11904Is_ that_ why you care?
11904Is_ that_ why you dislike Colonel Arran? 11904 It is not occupied?"
11904It is this: are you_ really_ surprised that I came? 11904 It was your father''s house?"
11904Just ordinary people?
11904Kemp said:''Well, what''s the matter with you?'' 11904 Know what, dearest of women?"
11904Knows what you did to my mother?
11904Knows what?
11904Leaving?
11904Left-- where?
11904Letty Lynden?
11904Letty? 11904 Letty?"
11904Man?
11904May I offer you a little of mine?
11904May I see him?
11904May I write to you, dear?
11904Mother dear?
11904Mr. Berkley, do you propose to go about town with me, hatless?
11904Mrs. Paige, can you account for-- that night? 11904 Must you go, Captain Hallam?"
11904No, you should not----"Have I offended you?
11904Nobody wrote you?--or telegraphed?
11904Now, have I not dragged my very soul naked under your eyes? 11904 O mother, how_ can_ we mend_ everything_ we tear?
11904Odd?
11904Oh, Celia, will you? 11904 Oh, dear,"sighed Camilla patiently,"is n''t it disheartening?"
11904Oh, is it you, Ailsa?
11904Oh, why are they sending Curt''s regiment across the river?
11904Oh, yes; only--she searched mentally--"he is not-- may I say, conventional?
11904On-- what?
11904Or-- Ormond?
11904Ormond?
11904Please--she said--"if you will let me go-- I will answer-- you----""What?"
11904Port or brandy, sir?
11904Private Berk-- Ormond--she calmly corrected herself--"has had no supper, has he?"
11904Private soldier?
11904Really? 11904 Regiment?"
11904Religious?
11904Riley said:''Is she very sick?'' 11904 S- sir?"
11904Say, is your colonel very bad? 11904 Shall I look for it, Celia?"
11904Shall a man drink wine with the slayer of souls?
11904Shall the spring dawn, and she, still clad in steel, And with an unscathed brow, Watch o''er a sea unvexed by hostile keel As fair and free as now? 11904 Shall we find Celia?"
11904Shall we go into Dr. West''s office and have supper, Phil? 11904 Shall we rest?"
11904Shall we walk a little? 11904 She is your sister- in- law?
11904Sick?
11904Sir?
11904Sir?
11904Sir?
11904Sir?
11904Sir?
11904Sir?
11904Sir?
11904Sir?
11904Sir?
11904Sir?
11904Sir?--beg pardon----"Ca n''t you help it? 11904 Some day do you think I might see you again?
11904Spec''you is lame an''so''all over, is you? 11904 Stop where?"
11904That looks like it, does n''t it? 11904 That settles it?"
11904That''s a good, regiment to enlist in, is n''t it?
11904The-- oath?
11904The-- what?
11904Then why do n''t you?
11904Then you really_ have_ had me watched?
11904Then you were not surprised that I came?
11904Then-- will you lie very still and not move?
11904Then--_will_ you-- Philip?
11904They''re still firing on Sumter, I tell you, and if the fort does n''t hold out do you think I''m going to sit around the house like a pussy cat? 11904 To see me, Letty?"
11904To-- him?
11904Trouble?
11904W- was that_ you_, with Captain Hallam''s horse-- there in the starlight-- when I spoke?
11904W- what, dear?
11904W- what?
11904W- what?
11904W- what?
11904Was I very drunk, Burgess?
11904Was he my father?
11904Was he punished?
11904We did have a nice party, did n''t we, Ailsa?
11904Well you wo n''t say such things to me again, about any man-- will you, dear?
11904Well, but you do n''t expect me to be interested in Mrs. Paige-- in the way_ you_ mean do you?
11904Well, what do you propose to do after the regiment is mustered out?
11904Well-- I wished to-- See here, Ailsa, will you let me speak about the_ practical_ part of our future when I come next time?
11904Well-- where is it?
11904Well?
11904Well?
11904West?
11904What are you going to do now?
11904What can it be? 11904 What can we do?
11904What change?
11904What did Ailsa say?
11904What did you like about Mr. Berkley, Ailsa?
11904What do you expect? 11904 What do you know about Captain Hallam?"
11904What do you wish me to do? 11904 What else is there to say to you, Berkley?
11904What has wrought this celestial change in you, Phil?
11904What is it you wish to ask?
11904What is it?
11904What is it?
11904What is your name and regiment?
11904What kind of an oath was it, Celia?
11904What kind of thing?
11904What reasons?
11904What the devil are you scratching for outside my door?
11904What the devil was all that row this morning, Burgess?
11904What was his grievance?
11904What was that shelling about? 11904 What way?"
11904What were you saying about-- him?
11904What word, Honey- bell?
11904What''s the use of being courted if you have to wait four years?
11904What''s your Colonel like, anyway?
11904What''s your reg''ment, friend?
11904What, in him, do you understand better now?
11904What_ were_ you doing when you got this?
11904When do you go? 11904 When he comes,"said Colonel Arran slowly,"will you have the kindness to say to him that Colonel Arran will be glad to renew the acquaintance?"
11904When is he coming back?
11904When this--_matter_--is settled, everything will be easier for you, wo n''t it? 11904 When?"
11904Where are the letters?
11904Where are the originals of those letters?
11904Where are we going?
11904Where are you, Burgess?
11904Where did they hit you, sir?
11904Where did they take Colonel Arran?
11904Where do you come from, ladies-- the General Hospital at Alexandria?
11904Where have you and Ailsa been to- day? 11904 Where is he?
11904Where is he?
11904Where is he?
11904Where is he?
11904Where is he?
11904Where is my regiment?
11904Where the devil did you come from, Burgess? 11904 Where''s yours?"
11904Where?
11904Which way, friend?
11904Which_ she_?
11904Whipped?
11904Who are they?
11904Who else-- knows?
11904Who else?
11904Who else?
11904Who in hell have you got there?
11904Who is this Private Ormond, anyway?
11904Who the devil are you?
11904Who told you such cock- and- bull stories, Ailsa?
11904Who will go?
11904Who would n''t ask you-- little rosebud?
11904Who would write to me? 11904 Who?
11904Who?
11904Whose?
11904Why are you crying now, Letty?
11904Why are you frightened?
11904Why did I give my love away-- Give it in April, give it in May, For a young man''s smile on a summer''s day? 11904 Why did I give my soul away-- Give it so gaily, give it to pay For a sigh and a kiss on a summer''s day?
11904Why did I give? 11904 Why did I love?
11904Why did n''t Flannery call me?
11904Why did n''t you let me know where you were going?
11904Why did n''t you say so? 11904 Why did you come-- again?"
11904Why did you tell me this?
11904Why did you think not?
11904Why do n''t you enlist?
11904Why do n''t you go to her?
11904Why do n''t you say that Hallam played the coward-- that he deserted his men under fire-- was even shot at by his own colonel?
11904Why do you think him odd?
11904Why do you think so?
11904Why not, Philip?
11904Why not?
11904Why not?
11904Why, Ailsa?
11904Why? 11904 Why?
11904Why?
11904Why?
11904Why?
11904Why?
11904Why?
11904Will it be a long war?
11904Will it hold us all?
11904Will you deny me?
11904Will you misunderstand me, Mr. Berkley? 11904 Will you retire peaceably, sir?"
11904Will you say to her that I would like to see her?
11904Will you take charge here while I go to Colonel Arran?
11904Will you tell me what has changed you?
11904Will you tell me why?
11904Will you tell me, Ailsa?
11904Will you-- come in?
11904Wo n''t they take you back?
11904Wo n''t you tell me what is wrong?
11904Would not some pallid face Look in upon the banquet, calling up Dread shapes of battle in the Christmas cup, And trouble all the place? 11904 Would you accept a glass of wine?"
11904Would you care to meet him, dear?
11904Would you care to tell me what you think of his chances?
11904Yes, sir?
11904Yo''is de adjetant ob dis here Gin''ral ob de Lancers, suh? 11904 You are not a volunteer nurse?"
11904You are not leaving here?
11904You are trooper Ormond, orderly to Colonel Arran?
11904You dare let me love you?
11904You do n''t mistake me, do you?
11904You do, do n''t you?
11904You have a son serving in that regiment?
11904You mean a dance?
11904You mean in talking-- ahem!--treason-- to sick Confederates? 11904 You mean no man--- excepting-- you?"
11904You mean to enlist?
11904You never met him?
11904You ran the guard?
11904You remember, Philip?
11904You saw him taken by the enemy?
11904You wo n''t peach, will you?
11904You won''t-- release me?
11904You would n''t do that, gentlemen, would you? 11904 You would not marry me if I told you----""What?"
11904You''d do all you could?
11904You''ll write to Camilla, wo n''t you?
11904You''re the 8th Cavalry, ai n''t you?
11904You-- are not crying, are you, Celia, darling?
11904You_ will_ be patient with him, wo n''t you?
11904You_ will_ come to see me again before you go back to your regiment, wo n''t you?
11904Your husband is Colonel Estcourt Craig, 3rd New York Zouaves?
11904Your mother''s relatives, the Paiges, the Berkleys-- my family, the Arrans, the Lents----"What Lents?
11904Your orderly--she scarce knew what she was saying--"is the same-- the one you had Christmas Eve?"
11904Your sister- in- law, Mrs. Paige, is?
11904Zarathustra spake:''Where stays the soul of a pure roan throughout the third night, O Heavenly, Holiest, Pure?'' 11904 _ Are_ you utterly without human feeling?"
11904_ Ca n''t_ you understand, Ailsa?
11904_ Is_ he plucky?
11904_ Were_ you worried, dearest?
11904_ Who_ is there-- across the road?
11904''","Sir?"
11904A major of heavy artillery turned toward her from his seat and said:"Are you a volunteer nurse, ma''am?"
11904A sick man?"
11904After a moment she said:"What did you mean by''a man of_ that_ kind''?"
11904Ailsa, why do n''t you marry again?"
11904Am I indiscreet to speak befo''you give me any warrant?"
11904Am I obliged to give it to you?"
11904Am I unpardonable?"
11904And Ailsa went on, breathing out the opening beauty of Timrod''s"Ethnogenesis":"Now come what may, whose favour need we court?
11904And Paige and Marye?--and Camilla?"
11904And Stephen?
11904And again the same impatient voice broke out contemptuously:"War?
11904And her eyes asked instinctively:"How did you know?"
11904And it is called Marye Mead, is n''t it?"
11904And not overdoing it?
11904And now, do you think I am likely to exchange what she and I really are, for anything more respectable that you believe you can offer?
11904And shall not evening call another star Out of the infinite regions of the night To mark this day in Heaven?
11904And the question is, Ailsa, whose going to do it?"
11904And we''ll try to make it agreeable all around, wo n''t we?
11904And''Is it?''
11904And, Ailsa, what do you think?
11904And, Burgess?"
11904And, as his angry eyes became blank:"Do n''t you understand?
11904And, in the first place, how are you, old fellow?"
11904And, oh-- do you believe it?
11904And, under God, whose thunder need we fear?"
11904Anything that I-- perhaps-- have a faint shadow of a right to know?"
11904Are there hot enough without you?--your mother''s only son----""Suppose everybody thought that way, where would our army be?"
11904Are they trustworthy and reliable men?
11904Are you Colonel Craig''s regiment?"
11904Are you acquainted with a lieutenant in the 5th Zouaves, named Cortlandt?
11904Are you afraid to take me for yourself?
11904Are you boys going to leave us behind to rot in rebel prisons?"
11904Are you going to run away?''
11904Are you nurses?"
11904Are you prepared to face the serious consequences of being a hero?"
11904Are you seated firmly?"
11904Are you stark mad?"
11904Are you sure you are quite well?
11904Are you well, Ailsa?"
11904Are you well?"
11904Are you, in your heart?"
11904Are you?"
11904Because he refused to challenge or be challenged when the law of the land forbade private murder?"
11904Been insulted, has n''t it?
11904Benton?"
11904Benton?"
11904Berkley said:"Do you want a damned fool?"
11904Berkley stepped to the curb- stone:"What regiment is that?"
11904Berkley?"
11904Berkley?"
11904Berkley?"
11904Berkley?"
11904Berkley?"
11904Berkley?"
11904Berkley?"
11904Berkley?"
11904Burgess appears to enjoy it and lights one of my best cigars----""Sir?"
11904But do you think me disloyal enough to confess to any woman on earth what my mother, if she were living, would sacrifice her very life to conceal?"
11904But is n''t it a shame that a man like Berkley should go to the devil-- and for no reason at all?"
11904But it was after midnight before she wrote to Berkley:"Have you quite forgotten me?
11904But now, standing on our blood- wet battle- fields, can we ever again forgive?
11904But when again she would have changed the subject, the Colonel stirred, interrupting:"Does he seem-- well?"
11904But why had he held his hand against Letty?
11904But you wo n''t let me be hurt, will you?"
11904But-- I do n''t believe I could explain----""Nice?
11904But_ which_?''
11904By God,_ are_ you alive to what you did to--_her_?"
11904By the way, you did n''t know that Ailsa Paige had been to Paigecourt, did you?"
11904Ca n''t I cry a little in my own room?"
11904Ca n''t you stop one of those ambulances, Jack?
11904Can it not be so again?
11904Can you come now?"
11904Can you come?
11904Can you come?"
11904Can you give me a position?''"
11904Can you hang on, Colonel?"
11904Can you lock your fingers?
11904Can you see?
11904Can you two girls keep their blankets from blowing away?"
11904Colonel Arran said:"Is there punishment more terrible than that for any man?"
11904Come, will you?"
11904Contented?
11904Could I?
11904Could anybody tell her where the Division Medical Director could be found?
11904Could you?
11904Craig?"
11904Craig?"
11904Craig?"
11904Curt-- won''t you?"
11904D- do you admit that?"
11904Did n''t you know it, grandchild of Vikings?
11904Did n''t you know me?"
11904Did they give you a furlough?"
11904Did you ever see such a lovely creature in all your life?
11904Did you go to New York?"
11904Did you know his parents?"
11904Did you know it?"
11904Did you know_ me_?"
11904Did you notice it?"
11904Did you paint that bathtub?
11904Do n''t you believe me?"
11904Do n''t you remember, dear, what we are to be to one another?"
11904Do they?"
11904Do traitors importune fo''blessings?"
11904Do what the Government pays me for doing?
11904Do you hear what I''m saying, Ailsa?"
11904Do you hear?"
11904Do you hear?"
11904Do you know a soldier named Arthur Wye?
11904Do you know that I am a relation?"
11904Do you know?
11904Do you not understand what the terror of these days without you has done to me?
11904Do you realise it?"
11904Do you recollect my saying so once?
11904Do you see the cannon?"
11904Do you still wish to slay yourself before my very eyes?"
11904Do you take pleasure in continually reminding yourself of your recent position of servitude?"
11904Do you think I do not know what I am saying?
11904Do you think I''d take anything at_ your_ hands?
11904Do you think I''m going to business every day as though nothing was happening to the country I''m living in?
11904Do you think Miss Lynden and I have been deaf since we arrived at the front?"
11904Do you think so?"
11904Do you think that Major Anderson will hold out at Sumter?
11904Do you think the fleet is going to relieve him?
11904Do you think you can tell me anything of eternal punishment?"
11904Do you understand?
11904Do you understand?"
11904Do you understand?"
11904Do you want to get shot?"
11904Do you want to know how my mother died?"
11904Do you wish me to go, Ailsa?
11904Do you wish to go?"
11904Do you--_what_ is it you wish?"
11904Do you?"
11904Eh?
11904Even at such a moment as this?"
11904Father and I''ve had a fight already----""What?"
11904Father says that the marine news makes it worth taking, but----""What on earth are you trying to say, Steve?"
11904For ammunition?
11904From where did you come?"
11904Funny, is n''t it, how a man goes out of his way to win over a nobody whom he thinks does n''t like him but ought to?
11904Had she not her fill of its brutality, its wickedness?
11904Had the cook been kind to him?
11904Happy?"
11904Has she, Susan?"
11904Has your brother- in- law gone to business?"
11904Has your mother seen this?"
11904Have you anything to say to that?''
11904Have you done these things?
11904Have you seen Ailsa Paige lately?"
11904He looked at me and said:"''Is Ormond your name?''
11904He managed to say:"You will give me the next?"
11904He reflected for a moment; then:"Had n''t you better tell me?"
11904He resembles her, does he not?"
11904He turned and paced the room rapidly, hands clasped behind his bent back; then, halting:"Do you_ want_ to go?"
11904Hey, you ai n''t got any old red silk stockings we can use for guidons, have you?
11904How arc you going to save your guns when the rebs come after you?"
11904How are you, Captain Lent?
11904How are you, Steve, anyway?"
11904How did you ever get here?"
11904How did you feel when the big shells came over?"
11904How do I know why I do anything?
11904How do I know, child?"
11904How does it feel to sleep in a real bed?"
11904How does your garden blow?
11904How have the roses wintered-- the rose of yesterday?"
11904How is it with you, Colonel?
11904How many will you give me?"
11904How on earth did old Benton ever permit you to escape?
11904I call that a plucky thing, do n''t you?"
11904I do n''t like such songs-- just now----""What songs?"
11904I hate to ask too much of you, but you wo n''t mind leaving one swallow of brandy in that decanter, will you?
11904I heard one say:''Why ca n''t they take off those white- winged sun- bonnets in the wards?''
11904I looked the part, did n''t I?"
11904I might write to him-- to remind him?"
11904I ought to go back-- if there''s anybody to look after Colonel Arran----""Is that your horse?"
11904I shall ask him to dinner and we can give a May dance perhaps-- something informal and pretty-- What is the matter, Curt?"
11904I suppose you are acting orderly to poor Colonel Arran?
11904I wanted to speak----""Do n''t say everything now,"she protested, forcing a smile,"otherwise what excuse will you have for coming again?"
11904I wish I could go out to play with these nice, perlite little boys?
11904I wish you to go home just as soon as I can secure transportation----""And let them burn Paigecourt?
11904I''d rather be around, handy like----""You''ll get killed some day, do n''t you know it?"
11904I''ve often wondered----""What, Honey- bee?"
11904I''ve only a minute or two left, and I wanted to speak-- if you''ll let me-- about----""Ca n''t you come again next week?"
11904I-- do you know that young Langley is dead?"
11904If so, where?
11904Is Curt all right?
11904Is he here again?"
11904Is he that type of young man?
11904Is it born in you?"
11904Is it in you to-- destroy-- me?"
11904Is it?
11904Is it?
11904Is n''t Evelyn Estcourt pretty?"
11904Is n''t Laura Keene bewitching?"
11904Is n''t it delicious?"
11904Is n''t it funny that nobody realised all this before?"
11904Is n''t it strange, Phil, that after all we''re so near mother''s old home?
11904Is she dead?"
11904Is that little Miss Lynden going with us?"
11904Is that the hospital, yonder?"
11904Is that understood?"
11904Is there any left?"
11904Is there any reason to distress her with-- such matters?"
11904It did n''t take you long, did it?"
11904It will all come right; you know it will, do n''t you, Curt?"
11904Marye, will you say to your father that it is after eleven o''clock, and that I am waiting to be well scolded and sent to bed?"
11904May I be permitted to present him to you?"
11904May I come?"
11904May I see you safely to Brooklyn?"
11904May I sit here beside you, Phil?
11904May I try?"
11904May I?"
11904May she?"
11904Meantime, why not make bonnets?
11904Mother''s own little boy-- mother''s little, little boy-- oh, it is ve''y hard-- ve''y hard----"[ Illustration:"_ Must_ you go so soon?
11904Mother, you_ will_ write to Camilla, wo n''t you, dear?
11904Nay, where even were the nobler failings, the forgivable faults, the promise of future things?
11904Nothing can harm me now, can it?"
11904Now may I have her letters?"
11904Now, dear, will you please remain with your superiors and obey orders?"
11904Now,_ what_ do you think of that, you funny little thing?"
11904Oh, papa, what are they?
11904Oh, yes; she wanted me to say to you that she was well--- and so is that other girl-- what''s her name?"
11904One among them drew bridle near him, calling out:"Have you the right time?"
11904Or is it just the flattering Irish in you that natters us poor women to our destruction?"
11904Or shall I?"
11904Or would you do as much as you could to break her heart first?"
11904Paige?"
11904Paige?"
11904Paige?"
11904Paige?"
11904Paige?"
11904Paige?"
11904Philip-- I think you knew Harry Sayre?
11904Poker, sir?"
11904Presently she said:"Do you remember the first word you ever spoke to me?"
11904Sa-- ay, would you gentlemen kindly tell us poor old sodgers what kind ov a hell ov a, dressmaker cut out them pantalettes?
11904Say, do n''t you want to climb up with the driver?"
11904Scouting?
11904Sergeant, will you look after my son?"
11904Shall I leave your kitchen?"
11904Shall I let you go?"
11904Shall I tell it?
11904Shall happy bells from yonder ancient spire Send their glad greetings to each Christmas fire Round which our children play?
11904Shall we cross?"
11904Shall we open the parcel and see what he has left us for breakfast?"
11904Shall we say that the expression, unenviable notoriety, summarises the reputation you have acquired?"
11904Shall we step inside?
11904Shall we try the fence together?"
11904She bent lower, whispering:"Is there no wedlock of the spirit?"
11904She broke off short, swung on the revolving chair, and called:"Mr. Berkley,_ are_ you going to see me home?"
11904She gathered all her composure, steadied her senses to choose a reply, and made a blunder:"Do you really care what I think?"
11904She looked up surprised:"Does n''t it?"
11904She said uneasily:"You are not really serious, are you?"
11904She said wonderingly:"Had this happened when-- I saw you that first time?"
11904She said, forcing herself to meet his eyes:"Trooper Ormond is your escort; do n''t you understand?
11904She said, whiter still:"Then I must not think of-- what can not be?"
11904She turned nervously, with a sunny glint of gold hair and fluttering ribbons:"Are you_ never_ perfectly serious, Mr. Berkley?
11904She was awakened by a rapping at her door and her cousin''s imperative voice:"I want to talk to you; are you in bed?"
11904So soon?
11904So soon?"]
11904So soon?''"
11904Sometime may I see you again?
11904That is not a very maidenly thought, I suppose, is it Ailsa?"
11904That''s the cheese, is n''t it, Burgess?
11904The batteries are all harnessed up; do you think there''s going to be another battle?
11904The next afternoon he said:"Does he never call on you?"
11904Then an infernal, mocking curiosity stirred him: What kind of a thing_ was_ he anyway?
11904Then he said harshly:"What else is there for us?
11904Then the older man said:"Do you not know that the hell men make for others is what they are destined to burn in sooner or later?
11904Then, looking Berkley over:"You''re pretty dirty, ai n''t you?
11904Then:"Can you forgive what I have done to you?"
11904Then:"Have you anything to tell me that-- perhaps I may be entitled to know about, Ailsa?"
11904Then:"May I speak to Captain Hallam about you?"
11904Then:"Phil, have you ever injured a man named Eugene Hallam, Captain of your troop in the 8th Lancers?"
11904Then:"Why have you changed your name?"
11904There are so many regiments forming, so many recruiting stations that we-- we have n''t decided-- have we, uncle?"
11904There''s nothing to stop you, is there?"
11904They''ll begin firing on Fortress Monroe and Pensacola-- I-- how do you know they''re not already thinking about bombarding Washington?
11904This is war, is n''t it?"
11904This re- conversion of the nation''s ploughshares and pruning hooks is a noisy affair, is n''t it?"
11904To go there is n''t so difficult, but how about coming back?
11904To what in him was she responsive?
11904Too bad, ai n''t it?
11904Transferred from the 7th to the Zouaves as lieutenant in the 5th company?"
11904Wait a second, will yer?
11904War is so strange, is n''t it?"
11904Was he killed?"
11904Was it her instinct to protect?
11904Was it his poverty that appealed?
11904Was it his solitude in the world for which she was sorry?
11904Was it pity for this man-- a young man only twenty- four, her own age, so cheerful under the crushing weight of material ruin?
11904Was n''t it the devil''s own luck for Berkley to find a market in times like these?"
11904Was she beautiful?"
11904Was the divine flight ended?
11904Was_ that_ what the army thought of them?
11904Well, I ca n''t get drunk, I ca n''t lie here and count from six to midnight and keep my sanity, I ca n''t smoke-- you rascal, where''s my cigar?
11904Were n''t you, dearest?"
11904Were you cross with him?"
11904What are you doing here, anyway?
11904What are you saying?"
11904What are you so excited about?"
11904What can I do for you?"
11904What cursed good are they alongside a gun?
11904What do you think of that, Burgess?
11904What do you think?"
11904What else have you been told?"
11904What else?"
11904What had prevented their use?
11904What has changed you?"
11904What has happened?"
11904What in hell do you want to stay_ here_ for now, you amusing wastrel?"
11904What in hell-- what sort of thing am I?"
11904What intellectual charm had he revealed?
11904What is it you desire to say?
11904What kind of figure do you think I shall cut after this?
11904What latent spiritual excellence did she suspect?
11904What more do you want of me before you consent to keep your distance and trouble me no more?"
11904What on earth do all these people think of us?"
11904What other items have you collected concerning me?"
11904What the deuce has kept you?
11904What would Celia think of her attitude toward the son of Constance Berkley?
11904What''n hell are you runnin''away for?
11904What''s the matter; do you want to carry my bag?"
11904What''s the news down by the river?"
11904What_ is_ the matter, dear?"
11904When a solid shot is fired, can you see it when it is coming toward you?"
11904When?"
11904Where are we going to get more?"
11904Where are_ you_ going, young man?
11904Where can I stow him?"
11904Where did you meet Miss Lynden and how long have you known her?
11904Where is your home?
11904Where you takin''them guns to?"
11904Where''s the water?"
11904Who dared doubt?
11904Who done bang you on de haid dat- a- way?"
11904Who else?"
11904Who ever heard of a shif''less Yankee girl except you and Marye?"
11904Who goes there?"
11904Who is there to tell me anything?"
11904Who owns your father''s house-- the one he lived in after he was married?"
11904Who was it that fairly kicked his fellow troopers into charging infantry with nothing but lances against bullets?"
11904Who?
11904Why did he do it?
11904Why did n''t you tell me?
11904Why did you never before come?"
11904Why do n''t you go there?
11904Why do you ask?"
11904Why do you look at me so strangely?
11904Why do you look so shocked?
11904Why does n''t Little Mac start us hell- bent for Richmond and let us catch''em on the jump?"
11904Why had she not been driven?
11904Why should I enlist when merely by cheering others I can stand here and create heroes in battalions?"
11904Why should n''t I know it?"
11904Why?"
11904Will you ask me, too?"
11904Will you be ready by eleven?"
11904Will you send your trunk to my house?
11904Will you sit on the aidge of the bed, Miss Lynden, and he''p my cousin eat this hot co''n pone?"
11904Will you wear this coat this evening, sir?"
11904Will you write?"
11904Will you?"
11904Will you?"
11904Will_ you_, Ailsa?"
11904With feast and song and dance and homely sport, And shout of happy children in the court, And tales of ghost and fay?
11904Wo n''t somebody tell General McClellan how brave they were?
11904Wo n''t you sit down?"
11904Would you care ve''y much what flag happened to be flying over Castle William?
11904Would you keep away from her?
11904Would you see me sometimes if I left the Canterbury?
11904Yes, he''s all three; Who can he be?
11904You boys did get cut up some, did n''t you?"
11904You do n''t need any whisky for your sick boys, do you?"
11904You have n''t a-- moment-- to lose----""Can you put your arms around my neck?"
11904You have n''t got no headache, have you?"
11904You have one somewhere, I suppose, have n''t you?"
11904You must n''t become so terribly excited; I did n''t know what I was saying; I think he is delirious----""Where is he?
11904You see it, do n''t you?"
11904You understand that, of course, do n''t you, darling?"
11904You will never let me be hurt, will you?
11904You wish to remain unrecognised in your regiment?"
11904You wo n''t go away soon, will you?
11904You wo n''t leave me-- too much-- alone?"
11904You''ll write to his mother, wo n''t you, dear?
11904You-- you like me, do n''t you?"
11904You_ wo n''t_ go, will you?"
11904Your brother inherited this house?
11904[ Illustration:"''Is Ormond your name?''"]
11904_ How_ could you be so-- interesting and-- and be-- what you were-- knowing this all the while?"
11904_ Is n''t_ it true?"
11904_ Is n''t_ she?"
11904_ Must_ you go so soon?
11904_ Then_ show him the enemy and send him into battle-- and what is the result?
11904_ What_ do you think of that?"
11904_ You_ are not worrying?"
11904and in good spirits?
11904formal?"
11904he added in disgust,"did n''t we have a dose of that at Yorktown and Williamsburg?
11904he said in astonishment,"what on earth has happened?"
11904he sneered,"we do n''t expect anything of the cavalry, but why are them Zouaves skedaddlin''?
11904he stammered:"What are you trying to tell me, Ailsa?"
11904is that you?''"
11904said Stephen in a low, surprised voice,"did you fellows know that the whole army was near here?"
11904she breathed,"is there nothing on earth but this shame for me?"
11904she broke off with a sharp intake of breath;"Do they believe such things of us in the South, Celia?"
11904she cried, tears starting to her eyes again,"do you think that would weigh with a girl who is so truly and unselfishly in love with you?"
11904she exclaimed,"what in the world is the trouble?"
11904she faltered,"what are you saying?"
11904she whispered in consternation,"do n''t they give you_ anything_ in camp?"
11904sobbed a wounded artilleryman, lifting himself from the blood- stained grass,"is this what I enlisted for?
11904what''s the matter with our cavalry?"
11904why_ did n''t_ you bring your nursemaids with you?"
11904will you remember me to your father?"
57383''Is it possible, then, to make that intercourse more advantageous or more satisfactory after separation than before? 57383 ''The question,''Mr. Lincoln replied,''was,"Why does man have breasts?"''
57383''Well, what about General King?'' 57383 ''Well,''he said,''are you on good terms with Price and King?''
57383***On the vote to repeal the Fugitive Slave Law, how did that( Democratic) side of the House vote?

57383Any eggs?
57383Any flour or grain?
57383Any guerrillas?
57383Are you a member of the other House?
57383Are you prepared for such a change in the institutions of your country? 57383 Are you the Governor of a State?"

57383Is it a good road, and how far?
57383Is it doubted, then, that the plan I propose, if adopted, would shorten the War, and thus lessen its expenditure of money and of blood? 57383 Is it locked up?"
57383Is it true, then, that Colored people can displace any more White labor by being Free, than by remaining Slaves? 57383 Is no one about who can get in?"
57383Is there no Justice in putting an end to human Slavery? 57383 It is not,''Can any of us imagine better?''
57383Now, I ask any plain common- sense man what was the meaning of that? 57383 Now, then, tell me, if you please, what possible result of good would follow the issuing of such a Proclamation as you desire?
57383Now, where is the proper place to break it?
57383Question. � And of course an abandonment of the purpose for which you were there? 57383 Question. � At that time General Patterson felt it was so important to attack Johnston that he had determined to do it?
57383Question. � Behind his intrenchments? 57383 Question. � Did not General Patterson issue orders at Bunker Hill, the night before you marched to Charlestown, for an attack on the Enemy?
57383Question. � Even if you had received a check there, it would have prevented his junction with the forces at Manassas? 57383 Question. � That order was not countermanded until late on Tuesday, the 16th, was it?
57383Question. � You understood General Patterson to be influenced to make that attempt because he felt there was a necessity for detaining Johnston? 57383 Question[ by Mr. Odell]. � Had you any such understanding with Patterson?
57383Question[ by Mr. Odell]. � You covered his movement? 57383 Question[ by the Chairman]. � Did he[ Patterson] assign any reason for that movement?
57383Shall one battle determine the fate of empire, or a dozen? � the loss of one thousand men, or twenty thousand? 57383 The question is, if the Colored people are persuaded to go anywhere, why not there?
57383Was it possible to lose the Nation and yet preserve the Constitution? 57383 Well, ai n''t you on our side?"
57383Well,said he,"did n''t you think it was the biggest shuck and the littlest ear that ever you did see?"
57383Well,said he,"did you see him take it off?"
57383Well,said he,"what do you want of me?"
57383Well,said he,"why do n''t you go into the gallery?"
57383What appointment?
57383What are the uses of decisions of Courts? 57383 What do you know of Uncle Billy?"
57383What do you live on?
57383What else was done at the very same session? 57383 What good would a Proclamation of Emancipation from me do, especially as we are now situated?
57383What is to be done with the freedmen?
57383What is your badge?
57383What says the Preamble to the Constitution? 57383 What troops are those?"
57383What,said he, referring to Mr. Ross,"has been the course of that gentleman and his Party on this floor in regard to voting supplies to the Army?
57383Where?
57383Whether such language is not Treason?
57383Why should they leave this Country? 57383 Why should this Property be exempt from the hazards and consequences of a rebellious War?
57383Why was not this taken and accepted? 57383 Why?"
57383Will you ever submit to a warfare waged by the Southern States to establish Slavery in Illinois? 57383 � you ask �"What next?"
57383''Must a Government of necessity be too strong for the liberties of its own people, or too weak to maintain its own existence?''
57383*** But you may ask me what are these rights and these privileges?
57383*** How has the planting of Slavery in new countries always been effected?
57383*** On the subject of arming Slaves, of putting Negroes into the Army, how has my colleague and his Party voted?
57383*** This being so, what is Judge Douglas going to spend his life for?
57383*** What can authorize him to draw any such inference?
57383*** What cause is there for further alarm in the Southern States, so far as the Territories are concerned?
57383*** What is fairly implied by the term Judge Douglas has used,''resistance to the decision?''
57383*** What is now the case?
57383*** Who did it?
57383*** Will it be any more valid?
57383***"''Question. � In what direction would Johnston have had to move to get by you?
57383***"I ask Mr. Lincoln how it is that he purposes ultimately to bring about this uniformity in each and all the States of the Union?
57383***"You may ask, why does the South want us to do it by Constitutional Amendment, when we have just done it voluntarily by Law?
57383******"What more, then, is demanded?
57383********* Question[ by the Chairman]. � Would there have been any difficulty in preventing Johnston from going to Manassas?
57383*********"Question. � While at Bunker Hill, the night before you left there, were any orders issued to march in the evening?
57383**********''Question[ by the Chairman]. � And that left Johnston free?
573831, but are in the immediate neighborhood, on their plantations?
573839:45 p.m."LIEUTENANT- GENERAL GRANT:"Would it not be well for Warren to go down with his whole corps and smash up the force in front of Sheridan?
57383A Freeman?
57383A few days afterward the husband again appealed to his commanding officer( Taylor), who exclaimed:"Have n''t you got a musket?
57383After assisting him in checking his steed, the President said to me:''He came pretty near getting away with me, did n''t he?
57383After shaking hands all round, the Governor said,"Coleman, what the devil is the matter here?"
57383And Farnsworth met this idea � which had also been advanced by Messrs. Ross, Fernando Wood, and Pruyn � by saying:"What constitutes property?
57383And as it is to so go, at all, events, may we not agree that the sooner the better?
57383And as to Oligarchal rule � the rule of the few( and those the Southern chiefs) over the many, � was not that already accomplished?
57383And how is it, that Johnston gets away from Patterson so neatly?
57383And if such is the case, what are we to hope in the future?
57383And is it not needed whenever it helps us and hurts the Enemy?
57383And then cried the orator- his voice rising to a higher key, penetrating, yet musical as the blast from a silver trumpet:"What would he have?
57383And then, having succeeded in convincing himself of Republican failure, he exultingly exclaimed:"But why enumerate?
57383And to this more than fair proposition to the Southerners � to this touching appeal in behalf of Peace � what was the response?
57383And we are asked by one of my colleagues,( Mr. Cox) does the gentleman from New York intend to call us Traitors?
57383And what can that purpose be, but to throw his augmented right upon our left, at Blackburn''s Ford, and so, along the ridge- road, upon Centreville?
57383And what have we seen?
57383And what is this"republican"form of government, thus pledged?
57383And what next?
57383And what was the chief cause or pretext for discontent at that time?
57383And what was the response of the South to this generous and conciliatory message?
57383And when does he do it?
57383And whose the sacrilegious hand that dared be first raised against his Country and his Country''s flag?
57383And why may we not continue that ratio far beyond that period?
57383And why the hasty after- indorsement of the decision, by the President and others?
57383And, above all, is it consistent with any notion, which the mind of man can conceive, of human Liberty?"
57383And, in any event, can not the North decide for itself, whether to receive them?
57383Another, Mr. Charles E. Lex( a Republican), speaking of the Southern People, said:"What, then, can we say to them?
57383Are they not already in the Land?
57383Are they not intended for disorganization in our very midst?
57383Are they not intended to animate our enemies?
57383Are they not intended to destroy our zeal?
57383Are they not intended to dull our weapons?
57383Are we to predict evil, and retire from what we predict?
57383Are we to stop and talk about an uprising sentiment in the North against the War?
57383Are you for it?
57383Are you for it?
57383As I drew up by the party, Bismarck accosted me with,"Well, General, are n''t you hungry?
57383As a political question and a question of humanity, can I receive the services of a father and mother, and not take the children?
57383At every meal the steward would come to me, and say,"Captain Sherman, will you bring your ladies to the table?"
57383At this General Grant remarked:"Did he say so?
57383Aye, what next?
57383Benjamin, why do you not vote?
57383But do you think they are so perfectly moulded to their state as to be insensible that a better exists?
57383But how can we attain it?
57383But it first became necessary to settle the important question of who should succeed General McPherson?
57383But the matter regarded by him of larger moment � the safety of the Union � how about that?
57383But to return to Military operations: On December 10th?
57383But what have we seen?
57383But what next?
57383But what would be the effect upon South Carolina?
57383Ca n''t you defend your own family?"
57383Can Grant supply himself from the Mississippi?
57383Can I have fifty?
57383Can aliens make treaties easier than friends can make laws?
57383Can aliens make treaties, easier than friends can make laws?
57383Can it be that such a resort finds root in any stratum of American opinion?
57383Can not this last bloody battle be avoided?''
57383Can the Union endure under such a system of policy?
57383Can their self love be so totally annihilated as not frequently to induce ardent wishes for a change?
57383Can treaties be more faithfully enforced between aliens than laws can among friends?
57383Can treaties be more faithfully enforced between aliens, than laws can among friends?
57383Can we Abolish Slavery in the Loyal State of Kentucky against her will?
57383Can we account for it to ourselves, gentlemen?
57383Can we afford to send them forward to their masters, to be by them armed against us, or used in producing supplies to sustain the Rebellion?
57383Can we do anything more?
57383Can we whip the South?
57383Can you expedite the sending to Nashville of the recruits that are in Indiana and Ohio?
57383Continuing, he said:"What more do the Southern States want?
57383Could I get a hundred tolerably intelligent men, with their wives and children, and able to''cut their own fodder''so to speak?
57383Could not such a camp be established about Pocotaligo or Coosawhatchie?
57383Could not such escaped slaves find at least a partial supply of food in the rice- fields about Savannah, and cotton plantations on the coast?
57383Could not your cavalry go back by the way of Stony Creek depot and destroy or capture the store of supplies there?
57383Could the one, in any way, greatly disturb the seven?
57383Davis, etc.?
57383Do not its principles and theories become daily more fixed in our practice?
57383Do we not know it to be so?
57383Do we not know that they have been anxious for a change of Government for years?
57383Do we not know this?"
57383Do you mean that I am to concede the benefits of the political struggle through which we have passed, considered politically, only?
57383Do you mean that I am to give up my convictions of right?
57383Do you mean that we are to deny the great principle upon which our political action has been based?
57383Do you suppose we shall do nothing, even upon the sea?
57383Do you think differently?
57383Do you visit the North in the Summer?
57383Does it appear otherwise to you?
57383Does not the Fugitive Slave Law affect the Black soldier in the Army who was a Slave?
57383Does the Free Republic of the United States exist, in fact, to- day?
57383Does timidity ask WHEN?
57383From your Custom- houses?
57383General Blair simply asked,"Do you like it?"
57383General Grant remarked,"What is to prevent their laying the rails again?"
57383General Halleck had a map on his table, with a large pencil in his hand, and asked,"where is the rebel line?"
57383Governor of a State?
57383Halleck was present and spoke up, saying:"How would Sheridan do?"
57383Halleck''s telegram of last night says:"Who sent Smith''s division to Nashville?
57383Has Congress any power over the subject of Slavery in Kentucky or Virginia or any other State of this Union?
57383Has any thing been heard from the troops ordered from Vicksburg?
57383Has he not stolen a march and sent re- enforcements toward Manassas Junction?
57383Has it more waste surface by mountains, rivers, lakes, deserts, or other causes?
57383Have any more troops arrived from Richmond, or are any more coming, or reported to be coming?
57383Have we not at the South, as well as the North, grown great, prosperous, and happy under its operations?
57383He asked me,"Where?"
57383He dropped out of the retinue with an orderly, and after we had ridden a mile or so he overtook us, and I asked him,"What luck?"
57383He inquired,"Why not both?"
57383He remaining mounted, spoke first to me, saying simply,"How are you, Sheridan?"
57383He said:"What is the use of your persevering?
57383He then asked in his quizzical way,"Are you a foreign embassador?"
57383He then said,"Have you any impudence?"
57383He turned to me and said,"Ca n''t you take your regiment up there?"
57383How can this be done?
57383How can we feed and care for such a multitude?
57383How can we, by conceding what you now ask, relieve you and the Country from the increasing pressure to which you refer?
57383How did that side of the House vote on the question of arming Slaves and paying them as soldiers?
57383How does it happen that we have not had unanimity enough to agree on any measure of that kind?
57383How is he going to do it?
57383How long have we been at War?
57383How many letters of marque and reprisal would it take to put the whole of your ships up at your wharves to rot?
57383How will he do it?
57383How?
57383I answered, rather shortly,''How the devil do you know there is a masked battery?
57383I answered:"How can you go to New York?
57383I asked Deshler:"What does this mean?
57383I assured him with thanks that I was"first- rate,"when, pointing toward the village, he asked,"Is General Lee up there?"
57383I had on my undress uniform indicating my rank, and inquired of the sentinel,"Is General Fremont up?"
57383I presume that some one said to the Governor about this time,"Why do n''t you get Sheridan?"
57383I said I had come to see him on business; and he added,"You do n''t suppose that he will see such as you?"
57383I said to Mr. Pickens,''What next do you propose we shall do?
57383I submit to you, my fellow- citizens, whether such a line of policy is consistent with the peace and harmony of the Country?
57383I touched it and examined one or two of the larger pieces, and asked,"Is it gold?"
57383If Hood goes to the Alabama line, will it not be impossible for him to subsist his army?
57383If Rebellion and bloodshed and murder have followed, to whose skirts does the responsibility attach?
57383If one man says it does not mean a Negro, why not say it does not mean some other man?
57383If such persons have what will be an advantage to them, the question is, whether it can not be made of advantage to you?
57383If the rebel leaders were to arm the slaves, what would be its effect?
57383If you ca n''t get over, how can the rebels get at you?''
57383In answer to his compliments about the comfortable location I had made, I said:''Very comfortable, General, when shall we move on?''
57383In that event, could you stand the reaction feeling which the suffering commerce of Charleston would probably manifest?
57383In that event, would it not be possible for you to become a citizen of our State?
57383In what do our new Territories now differ in this respect from the old Colonies when Slavery was first planted within them?
57383In what way can that Compromise be used to keep Lee''s Army out of Pennsylvania?
57383Is he going to spend his life in maintaining a principle that no body on earth opposes?
57383Is it doubted that it would restore the National authority and National prosperity, and perpetuate both indefinitely?
57383Is it inferior to Europe in any natural advantage?
57383Is it less fertile?
57383Is it not a mere usurpation without any known mode of justification, under any existing Code of Laws, human or Divine?"]
57383Is it not a time when the measure is most likely to produce danger and mischief to the Country at large?
57383Is it possible, then, to make that intercourse more advantageous or more satisfactory after separation than before?
57383Is it worth our while to continue this union of States, where the North demands to be our masters and we are required to be their tributaries?
57383Is that what you mean?
57383Is there a single Court or Magistrate, or individual that would be influenced by it there?
57383Is there no danger to the Tranquillity of the Country in its existence?
57383Is there, has there ever been, any question that, by the Law of War, property, both of enemies and friends, may be taken when needed?
57383It forces us to ask:''Is there in all republics, this inherent and fatal weakness?''
57383It has the sanction of God''s own Apostle; for when Paul sent back Onesimus to Philemon, whom did he send?
57383It is only a week ago last Monday, that a Bill was introduced here to punish guerrillas*** and how did my colleague vote?
57383Look to the illustrations which the times now afford, how, in the illustration of that sentiment, do we differ from the Black man?
57383MAJOR- GENERAL THOMAS, Nashville, Tenn. Is there not danger of Forrest moving down the Cumberland to where he can cross it?
57383Major Childs inquired,"Where is Coacoochee?"
57383Major W. T. Sherman: Will you accept the chief clerkship of the War Department?
57383Mason said to me,"What is that?"
57383May it not interfere with the common Defense and general Welfare?
57383May they not pronounce all Slaves Free?
57383May they not think that these call for the abolition of Slavery?
57383Member of Congress?"
57383Mr. Lincoln*** more than once exclaimed:''Must more blood be shed?
57383Mr. Lincoln, who was still standing, said,"Threatened to shoot you?"
57383My friends, is it possible to preserve Peace between the North and the South if such a doctrine shall prevail in either Section of the Union?
57383Not that he feared the North � but the South; how would the wayward, wilful, passionate South, receive his proffered olivef- branch?
57383Now, what do we find?
57383Now, who was it that did the work?
57383Object whatsoever is possible, still the question recurs,''Can we do better?
57383Of all the times when an attempt was ever made to carry this measure, is not this the most inauspicious?
57383Of parties claiming foreign protection?
57383Offering the flask to his uncle, he said:"You''ve had a hard day of it; wo n''t you refresh yourself?"
57383Often"Johnny"would call:"Well, Yank, when are you coming into town?"
57383One party to a contract may violate it � break it, so to speak; but does it not require all, to lawfully rescind it?
57383Or would he conduct this War so feebly, that the whole World would smile at us in derision?"
57383Others say:"What are we to do?
57383Our position for renewing the action the next morning was excellent; whence, then, our failure?
57383Pausing awhile, and watching the operations of this man roasting his corn, he said,"What are you doing?"
57383President?''
57383Renick said,"What do you want with General Fremont?"
57383Shall we send a flag of Truce?
57383Sherman said to me:"Admiral, how could you make such a remark to McClernand?
57383Should his request be granted, who would you like as his successor?
57383Should we allow them to escape, etc.?
57383Simply that a Constitutional Amendment shall be adopted, affirming � what?
57383Sir, are they not words of brilliant, polished Treason, even in the very Capitol of the Nation?
57383Sir, how can we make Peace?
57383Sir, how can we retreat?
57383Sir, is not this a remarkable spectacle?
57383So that among the younger officers the query was very natural,"Who the devil is Governor of California?"
57383So that the only questions that remained were, would he surrender at Raleigh?
57383Some say:"I have such a one sick at my house; who will wait on them when I am gone?"
57383State in what manner you would rather live-- whether scattered among the whites, or in colonies by yourselves?
57383State what you understand by slavery, and the freedom that was to be given by the President''s proclamation?
57383State what, in your opinion, is the best way to enlist colored men as soldiers?
57383Suppose he does re- enact the same law which the Court has pronounced unconstitutional, will that make it Constitutional?
57383The Governor knocked at the door, and on inquiry from inside"Who''s there?
57383The immediate Secessionists, or those who are opposed to separate State action at this time?
57383The next was,"What are WE to do?"
57383The only question now was, how to get rid of it?
57383The question, then, naturally arises, what are those rights and privileges, and what is the nature and extent of them?
57383Then followed the question,"Is Fort McAllister taken?"
57383These speeches of his, sown broadcast over the Land, what clear distinct meaning have they?
57383This being so, how is it possible for the people still here( mostly women and children) to find any shelter?
57383This feature was more than acceptable to the parents at times, for how else could they so thoroughly learn all the neighborhood gossip?
57383To mob law, to partisan caucuses, to town meetings, to revolution?
57383To whom shall you appeal?
57383Tracy desiring"to know whether, in these Halls, the gentleman from Maryland invoked Almighty God that the American Arms should not prevail?"
57383Upon what terms?
57383WHAT NEXT?
57383WHAT NEXT?
57383WHAT NEXT?
57383Warming up, he proceeded to say:"Can the Union be restored by War?
57383Was it Mr. Clark?
57383Was it that they believed a Monarchical form of government was incompatible with civil liberty?
57383Was it that they were opposed to a Monarchical form of government?
57383Was it the firing on our flag at Sumter?
57383Was that the first adversary passage?
57383We then returned to Benicia, and Wool''s first question was,"What luck?"
57383Well, so much being disposed of, what is left?
57383Well, suppose he is; what is he going to do about it?
57383Were it his own, would he not have said in"making"it, instead of in"stating"it?
57383What American is not proud of the result?
57383What Commissioners?
57383What better Compromise could have been made?
57383What can I do for you?"
57383What can it be?
57383What could I do?
57383What do those terms mean when used now?
57383What do those terms mean?
57383What good does it do to pass a second Act?
57383What has become of it?
57383What has become of that Squatter Sovereignty?
57383What has been their course in regard to raising money to pay the Army?
57383What has now become of all his tirade about''resistance to the Supreme Court?''"
57383What is Popular Sovereignty?
57383What is War?
57383What is it?
57383What more can any man demand?
57383What more?
57383What of future hopes?
57383What of past glories?
57383What should be done with them?
57383What signified the terms to them, so long as we obtained the actual surrender of people who only wanted a good opportunity to give up gracefully?
57383What then?
57383What then?
57383What was Squatter Sovereignty?
57383What was to be done with the rebel armies when defeated?
57383What were they but a clear indication that the framers of the Constitution intended and expected the ultimate extinction of that institution?
57383What will become of Constitutional Government?
57383What will become of public Liberty?
57383What would be its fate there?
57383What would he have?
57383What would our condition be in the event of the greatest calamity that could befall this Nation?"
57383What''vested right''has any man or State in Property in Man?
57383When ground is owned by parties who have gone south, and have leased the ground to parties now in the city who own the improvements on the ground?
57383When he did speak it was to ask:"Grant, how many wolves do you think there are in that pack?"
57383When houses are occupied and the owner has gone south, leaving an agent to collect rent for his benefit?
57383When houses are owned by loyal citizens, but are unoccupied?
57383When movable property is found in stores that are closed?
57383When parties owning houses have gone south, and the tenant has given his notes for the rent in advance?
57383When parties who occupy the house are creditors of the owner, who has gone south?
57383When the navigation laws cease to operate, what will become of your shipping interest?
57383When the owner has gone south, and parties here hold liens on the property and are collecting the rents to satisfy their liens?
57383When the owner lives in town, and refuses to take the oath of allegiance?
57383When the tenant has expended several months''rent in repairs on the house?
57383When this Tariff ceases to operate in your favor, and you have to pay for coming into our markets, what will you export?
57383When your machinery ceases to move, and your operatives are turned out, will you tax your broken capitalist or your starving operative?
57383Where are you?"
57383Where is Rome, once the mistress of the World?
57383Where is it?
57383Where is the remedy when you refuse obedience to the constituted authorities?"
57383Where is to be your boundary line?
57383Where the end of the principles we shall have to give up?
57383Which party will prevail?
57383Who defeated it?
57383Who ever supposed they would come away down here in Alabama?"
57383Who have prompted him?
57383Who heard of any such thing, because of the Ordinance of''87?
57383Who is responsible for it?
57383Who is so bold as to do it?
57383Who shall treat?
57383Who would go?
57383Who, then, has brought these evils on the Country?
57383Who, then, shall come in at this day and claim that he invented it?
57383Whose fault was it?
57383Why better after the retraction than before the issue?
57383Why declare that within twenty years the African Slave Trade, by which Slaves are supplied, might be cut off by Congress?
57383Why deprive him of supplies by a blockade, and voluntarily give him men to produce them?
57383Why disguise this great truth?
57383Why do you not obey my orders to report strength and positions of your command?
57383Why do you not obey my orders to report strength and positions of your command?
57383Why even a Senator''s individual opinion withheld, till after the Presidential election?
57383Why is this so?
57383Why may not our Country at some time, average as many?
57383Why not attack at once?
57383Why not save this Proposition, and see if we can not bring the Country to it?''
57383Why not?
57383Why should they do anything for us if we will do nothing for them?
57383Why the delay of a re- argument?
57383Why the incoming President''s advance exhortation in favor of the decision?
57383Why the outgoing President''s felicitation on the indorsement?
57383Why this sad difference?
57383Why was the Court decision held up?
57383Why was the amendment, expressly declaring the right of the people, voted down?
57383Why was this, or why was all mention of any field of duty for the head of the army left out of the army regulations?
57383Why were all these acts?
57383Will he be able to convince the Court that the second Act is valid, when the first is invalid and void?
57383Will he shrink from armed Insurrection?
57383Will his State justify it?
57383Will it be said the South required in addition to this, laws of Congress to protect Slavery in the Territories?
57383Will its better public opinion allow it?
57383Will liberation make them any more numerous?
57383Will that do any good?
57383Will that success continue?
57383Will the Senator yield to Rebellion?
57383Will the galling comparison between themselves and their masters leave them unenlightened in this respect?
57383Will you not embrace it?
57383Will you not embrace it?
57383Wo n''t you speak your mind freely on this question of slavery, that so agitates the land?
57383Would it be less than stealing?"
57383Would my word free the Slaves, when I can not even enforce the Constitution in the Rebel States?
57383Would we not be in the wrong?"
57383Would you not lose that in which your strength consists, the union of your people?
57383You ask, what is the general''s opinion, upon this subject?
57383You here are Freemen, I suppose?
57383You will ask in this view, how do you consult the benefit of the slaves?
57383and will they not be warranted by that power?
57383and"whether it is in order to talk Treason in this Hall?
57383are we to tell the People that Republicanism is a failure?
57383because of the Missouri Restriction because of the numerous Court decisions of that character?
57383but,''Can we all do better?''
57383or is it not manifest that there is no just title?
57383or one hundred million or five hundred million dollars?
57383said Mr. Lincoln,"how are they getting along down there?"
57383said a listener,"do n''t you know that old Sherman carries a duplicate tunnel along?"
57383what do you export?
57383what more than we have expressed in the resolutions we have offered?
57383where are they to come from?"
57383where will their revenue come from?
57383why have not the People of that Heaven- favored clime, the spirit that animated their fathers?
57383will you work?
57383� said Davies �"and can they get through that road?"
9839Ah- h, there are times when a man has n''t got his thinking powers; you ought to know that, Smith,--"Mr. Gholson, what do you mean by that?
9839Ai n''t you Major Harper''s quartermaster- sergeant?
9839And at other times--?
9839And do you imagine Ned Ferry has n''t thought of that?
9839And the dances?
9839And the one following, almost at his side?
9839And this is what you do n''t want me to tell? 9839 And why do you think she wants to do this?"
9839And yet you never take a lady''s name for granted?
9839And yet,he began to add,--"Yet what?"
9839And you appeal to me for protection?
9839And you consider that a reasonable request?
9839Are they married?
9839Are you going to count them?
9839Are you not a New Orleans boy?
9839Being a soldier,said Charlotte,"you want to die like one?"
9839Besides the men? 9839 But tell me, honor bright,"--she sparkled with amusement--"you''re not regularly enlisted, are you?"
9839But they were present, eh?
9839But you do n''t mind confessing you''re an out- and- out rebel sympathizer?
9839But you think he will not go on?
9839Ca n''t one man do the work?
9839Ca n''t we make them think our men are here?
9839Can I Get There by Candle- Light?
9839Can I have my horse, bridled and saddled, in three minutes?
9839Can you have your wound washed to- night before mine?
9839Captain, may I go and bring her-- tell her what you say, and bring her?
9839Captain,--I swallowed a lump--"what others?"
9839Charlie Toliver?
9839Could n''t I go back to where this fence crosses the gully and let them see me opening a gap in it?
9839Cruel to you?
9839Dead?
9839Did Lieutenant Ferry fire?
9839Did n''t the Yankees fall back this morning before day and move southward?
9839Did n''t you intend to call, too?
9839Did she give no reason?
9839Did she say that to you?
9839Did the doctor say''fallen''?
9839Did you ever see her?
9839Did you think I was at the rear?
9839Did you think I was at the rear?
9839Did you,she went on, childishly,"ever take a snake up by the tail, in your thumb and finger, and watch him try to double on himself and bite you?
9839Do n''t you know? 9839 Do n''t you know?"
9839Do n''t you like him?
9839Do n''t you like him?
9839Do n''t you love to see Charlotte and him look at each other in that steady way when they''re talking together?
9839Do you believe Jewett has gone back into his own lines?
9839Do you believe she has told Ned Ferry anything?
9839Do you know who and what Charlotte Oliver is?--No? 9839 Do you mean she loves him; what sign of such a thing did she show yesterday or last evening?"
9839Do you propose to call him out?
9839Do you still think we ought to wait here for the command?
9839Do you think she''d come? 9839 Does Charlotte,"I asked,"know-- everything?"
9839Does Ned Ferry give that as his reason?
9839Does Ned say when he will start?
9839Does n''t a good story revive the poetry of our actual lives?
9839Does your father think so, too?
9839Easier to get away, you think?
9839Even things_ she_ does n''t want told?
9839Fact is, my son''s a surgeon, and he taken all my best instruments with_ him._"When; where is he?
9839For what would they do that?
9839Free?
9839From Gholson?
9839From what?
9839Generals''uniforms, for example?
9839Gholson, if it is n''t Ned Ferry''s religion that''s worrying you just now about him, what is it?
9839Gholson,I said, for I kept him plied with questions to prevent his questioning me,"how did that man ever get her?"
9839Good- morning, Smith, who is your prisoner?
9839Good- morning, sergeant, is Lieutenant Ferry-- worse?
9839Guess I''m the first Yankee y''ever caught, ai n''t I?
9839Had to stay with the hanging- squad to keep his mouth shut, you was going to say, wa''n''t you? 9839 Has Ned Ferry come?"
9839Has he a taste for fiction?
9839Has the brigade got marching orders?
9839Have n''t you got--she hid her smile with an embroidered handkerchief--"haven''t you got your second figure upside down?"
9839Have you come from beyond the pickets?
9839Have you met any officer riding toward them?
9839Have you never resumed your maiden name?
9839Head ache?
9839Hindoo grammars!--No? 9839 Hold on; you say nearly everybody fired at Oliver; who did not?"
9839How did I hear them? 9839 How did you get through the enemy''s pickets with this?"
9839How did you make her acquaintance?
9839How do you propose to circumvent and yet save him?
9839How does it come that she''s here, anyhow?
9839How far is it to camp-- Austin''s?
9839How long have you belonged to Ferry''s scouts?
9839How many candles do you see in there?
9839How many do you see?
9839How many, Lieutenant?
9839How on earth should I know?
9839How''s the Lieutenant?
9839How''s the fair patient?
9839How, then, did she know?
9839I do n''t know, Lieutenant; do you think Jewett has run back into his own lines?
9839I do n''t know; has n''t he?
9839I do n''t mean Lieutenant Ferry,she responded,"nor anybody you''d ever guess if you do n''t know; but you do, do n''t you?"
9839I do n''t think we''re quite up to that line of perpetual snow, Walter, are we?
9839I do, Captain; but at the same time--"What, what? 9839 I suppose we might call him a romanticist,"said I,"might we not?"
9839I think you know Lieutenant Durand?
9839I?--I hit you? 9839 If I give you a good fresh horse can you go twenty- three miles more by midnight?"
9839Is he dead?
9839Is it so dangerous?
9839Is n''t anybody else mortally in love with anybody else? 9839 Is n''t that so, Ned?--Now,--now,--isn''t that so?"
9839Is she alive, Kendall?
9839Is she alive, Kendall?
9839Is she alive?
9839Is she alone?
9839Is she better?
9839Is she coming?
9839Is that all you''ve noticed?
9839Is that your entire present force?
9839Is this Squire Wall''s?
9839It''s twenty miles off; why are you not with it? 9839 Lieutenant Ferry, the next time I have to express my disgust please to keep your hand off my knee, will you?"
9839Lieutenant Ferry? 9839 Lieutenant,"I asked at length,"did you know your plot against the two Olivers would cross her wishes?"
9839Lieutenant,I began eagerly as he was drawing away,"is--?"
9839Lieutenant,I replied, choking with dismay,"why mind her meanings now?
9839Lieutenant,he panted,"I hope you''ll-- do me the favor-- to let my turn with those gentlemen-- come last,--after my boys,--will you?"
9839Like whom?
9839Little girl?
9839May I ask one thing?
9839Miss Camille?
9839Mr. Gholson, can_ you_ tell me the first line of the last hymn we sang this morning?
9839My father? 9839 My mother brought her to your house?"
9839My son? 9839 No, the doctor said''plunged,''but-- did Ned Fer''--who put that into your head?"
9839No,she added,"you could n''t look so happy if there were the least thing wrong, could you?"
9839Nor no woman?
9839Not-- Venus?
9839Now, Charlotte, my dear,began Miss Harper,"you are too terribly tired to-- why, where is Charlotte; did she not come in with us from the-- gate?"
9839Now, tell me; you''re not to report to him till daylight, are you? 9839 Of course I do, and Ned Ferry does; do n''t you?"
9839Oh!--good- bye, just anybody?
9839Oh, no,she responded, wiping his brow,"why should you be?
9839Oh, you know that, do you? 9839 Oh, you think so?
9839Or rather-- what are those three bright stars yonder? 9839 Send that first; and after that-- here is a military secret for you to tell to General Austin; I think you like that kind, eh?
9839Shall I come?
9839Shall we turn in here?
9839She saw the despatch was a trap for the Yankees, and used it so, you think? 9839 She''s not stolen, she''s only served her country a little better than usual to- day; have n''t you, Cousin Sallie?"
9839She?
9839Smith,he asked,"can you start back without me?
9839Smith,privately asked the agonized Harry,"what would you do if you were in my place; go and cut your throat from ear to ear?"
9839Smith,said the Colonel, and then smoked and smiled again till my brow beaded,--"tired?"
9839Smith,said the Colonel, just not too full to keep up a majestic frown,"want to saddle my horse and yours?"
9839South?
9839Such as which?
9839Telegraph? 9839 Ten minutes for prayer is a good while to allow you, my amiable friend; we ai n''t heard for our much speaking, are we, Brother Gholson?
9839Thank you,said Ferry;"will you pardon me for passing in front of you?"
9839The Lieutenant, sleeping? 9839 The war- correspondent,"whispered Gholson;"do n''t you know?"
9839Then Ned Ferry does n''t drink?
9839Then what the devil do you want?
9839Then why do you put that thing on?
9839They are not so bad, Dick; you think a few hours in the saddle will not make them worse?
9839This- yeh pla- ace?
9839Those letters-- to the newspapers?
9839Those? 9839 To what command do you belong?"
9839To what command do you fellows belong?
9839To- day? 9839 Too tired?"
9839Too warm?
9839Two-- what?
9839Understand, you and I are friends,--hmm? 9839 Union man, I take it, is he not?"
9839Verbal message? 9839 Want them?
9839We can see him yet if you--"Do you want to see him?
9839Wh''--where is-- where are the others?
9839Wh''--who is that?
9839What do you mean?
9839What do you see?
9839What do you think,--Camille?
9839What is that?
9839What made you give that sudden start?
9839What makes you think we ai n''t after conscripts?
9839What!--gone?
9839What''s the difference, boy; you did n''t aim to miss, did you? 9839 What''s the name, General, of the man whose house I''m to go to?"
9839What, a leather- curtained spring- wagon?
9839What?
9839When did she get here?
9839Where is he?
9839Where is she?
9839Where''s that one?
9839Where''s this one?
9839Where?
9839Who and what are you? 9839 Who are you?"
9839Who is Lucius; is he Charlotte''s husband?
9839Who told-- did Ned Ferry tell you that story?
9839Who was it that screamed; was it she?
9839Who was it?
9839Who, me? 9839 Who-- o?"
9839Who?
9839Who?--eh,--ole man Ol- i- veh? 9839 Whom else could I mean?"
9839Whom have you come for, sir?
9839Whose hand was it; that fellow''s, yonder?
9839Why Wiggins? 9839 Why did my mother bring her to you?"
9839Why did you tell her that? 9839 Why do I put it on?
9839Why does n''t Ned Ferry make_ her_ let Gholson alone? 9839 Why have n''t I got it right?"
9839Why should he? 9839 Why, I keep the plain road, do n''t I?"
9839Why, I says, s''I,''Mis''Charlotte, how we know he ain''gwine fo''to double on his huntehs? 9839 Why, Lieutenant, that is just what you have done--""You think so?
9839Why, how can he hang around that way, Smith, and he a suitor who''s just killed her husband? 9839 Why, then?"
9839Why, what does all this mean?
9839Why, who and what should I be?
9839Will you kindly tell me, sir, if you see any unnatural discoloration in there?
9839Would I not tell my dream, as nice young men in the Bible always did?
9839Yes, I think I do; I think--"Well? 9839 Yes, I think so; and you?"
9839Yes, I''ve heard it; he is a very daring man; what of it?
9839Yes,--yes,--but, oh, do n''t you_ see_, Smith? 9839 Yes-- well-- what of him?"
9839Yes; and I said-- what?
9839Yes? 9839 Yes?"
9839Yes?
9839Yet you wouldn''t--"Part with it? 9839 You can do as you''re told; understand?"
9839You heard what was in it, did n''t you?
9839You know Roy''s; two miles off the Plank Road by the first right? 9839 You know who I mean, of course?"
9839You know who''s here?
9839You promised her-- what did you promise her?
9839You recognize her?
9839You remember the last time the brigade was in this piece of country?
9839You remember, when I wanted to shoot that Yankee off my horse?
9839You sa- ay''Whah is it?'' 9839 You sa- ay''What we a- doin''hyuh?''
9839You saw me put the mare into the stable and go into the house by the back door?
9839You say she was so full of fun that day; what day?
9839You were so anxious to get the General''s letter?
9839You''re not asking my permission?
9839You, also, have been guessing, eh?
9839You_ know_ that?
9839--Do you take him for a rabbit?
9839--With General Austin,"I continued,"--and with Lieutenant Ferry?"
9839--a smile--"yes?
9839A panic was surging through me; must I be brought to book by such as he?
9839About herself?
9839Ai n''t it, Gholson?
9839And besides, was not that you said one time to me''No splendor shines at last so far as a hidden splendor''?"
9839And could it occur to a chap who could not comprehend how it had ever occurred at all?
9839And down here in this room instead of upstairs?"
9839And what else?"
9839And where is the battery?"
9839And why not?
9839And yet you ca n''t side with her, for I just swear Ned''s got to have Charlotte Ol''--what?
9839And you think, Dick, it was not a question of time; that I did not ask, maybe a little too soon?"
9839Are they kinfolks?"
9839Are you sure you have the name just right?"
9839As the rider wheeled away I blurted out with anxious loudness in the general hubbub,"Is n''t his brother with him?"
9839As we bore her in with Gholson and me next her head she murmured to him:"Mr. Gholson, when does the command move?"
9839At present there is a verbal message for me; what is it?"
9839But do n''t you see, besides, what she_ does_ want?
9839But he-- oh why did he not go on hours ago, to meet them?"
9839But my heart ached most, and I bowed in the saddle and cried--"What have I done, oh, what have I done?
9839But these details imply a delay where in fact there was none; the moment Ferry spied me he asked"Did he get across?"
9839But what is this; are we calling the roll after we have broken ranks?
9839But when we were done he softly asked,"That business of yours we talked about on the Plank- road-- it looks any better?"
9839But why not lend Captain Jewett''s horse and keep yours?
9839But why, then, this ardent zeal to save the necks of the two traitors"whose roof this night--"etc.?
9839But, Smith, my mind was so full-- just for the moment, you know,--of her we were speaking of in connection with Ned Ferry-- Do you know?
9839By the way, did he not think feminine beauty was always in its ripest perfection at eighteen?
9839Captain, will you go with this young man to General Austin''s tent?"
9839Charlotte addressed the wounded man:"Just a little bit of it, will that do?"
9839Could the like occur again?
9839Dick Smith, if you tell anybody else that I saved-- Well, who did, then?
9839Did he know the Major?
9839Did n''t you know?
9839Did not my companion think so?
9839Did you know I knew her?"
9839Did you never have some dull, incessant ache that seemed to pain less when you pressed hard on it?"
9839Did you see Ned Ferry take him under his protection?
9839Did you see that Yankee lieutenant with the big sabre- cut on his shoulder?
9839Do n''t you say so?"
9839Do n''t you want to give us your parole this time, temporarily, for an hour or so, and be more comfortable?"
9839Do you believe that, Dick?"
9839Do you know my mother?"
9839Do you know where she''s gone?"
9839Do you know, dear, that any woman who can say that, is richer than any who can not?
9839Do you surren''--?"
9839Do you think I do n''t know?
9839Do you think Jewett has run back into his own lines?"
9839Do you--?"
9839Do you?"
9839Does you?
9839Does your mother live in Apollo Street?"
9839Ever have one?"
9839Ever travel by the stars?"
9839Ferry re- formed and down on them afresh?
9839Had she some schemer''s use for me?
9839Has he seen us?"
9839Has her aunt no eyes?"
9839Have n''t you seen the General this morning?
9839Have you come here determined to be sent to prison, Miss Coralie Rothvelt?"
9839He did not hear it plainly:"Cockerel, did you say?"
9839He glanced at me suddenly, then smoothed his horse''s mane, and said, gently,"That means you have declared yourself to her?"
9839He is here by me, but I t''ink you best not take him, hmm?
9839He made a gesture of lament toward Ferry and broke out,"O-- oh Smith,"--nearly all Gholson''s oh''s were groans--"why is he here?
9839He told you this morning he is acquainted with your mother, eh; but not how?"
9839He went to church this morning--_of course_; but how often does he go?
9839He''s Dead-- Is She Alive?
9839Her aunt?
9839Her jaunty method of confronting it, was I not failing to regard_ that_ with due magnanimity?
9839Her rejoinder came in a low, grieved monotone:"Did you say_ had_ hoped?"
9839Her response was a question, which he repeated:"Is he hurt?
9839How am I to help you to help him; help him to do what?"
9839How am I to know him?"
9839How are you in any way responsible?"
9839How can you tamely-- no, I do n''t mean tamely, but-- how can you_ endure_ to let this matter drift-- how can you endure it?"
9839How''s that?"
9839I cried,"are they here t''--too?
9839I faced him sharply--"Who told you that?"
9839I had tried twice to interrupt and now I yelled;"was it Oliver, and a new gang, that Quinn fought last night, and have you got him at Union Church?"
9839I know all and you know only half; I have seen the absolute--""Proofs?
9839I pointed to the door he had softly closed behind him:"How is it in there?"
9839I sank upon the steps; every pore in my body was a fountain of cold sweat:"Have whom?"
9839I thought;"Charlotte Oliver, eh?"
9839I want to tell you because I can trust you with a secr''--wh''--what''s the matter, did I hurt your wound?
9839I-- oh, what do you mean; is he--?"
9839If I tell you who and what I am will you do what I''ve asked you; will you promise not to stop at Lucius Oliver''s house?"
9839If she can sing to him, are you too good to apologise?"
9839If the sick lady is n''t Charlotte Oli''--""And if she is?"
9839In a secluded north- and- south road he looked back and beckoned me to his side:"You saw Major Harper''s brother land safe and sound, you say?
9839Instead he asked"Did she say that as if a''--as if-- amused?"
9839Is it so fine as that?"
9839Is it that little Harper girl?"
9839Is n''t it good to leave one''s lieutenant sometimes in command; is n''t it bad not to?"
9839Is n''t she deep enough in the hospital service already, with her quinine dolls?"
9839Is n''t your last name Cockerel?"
9839Is the Confederate general as nameless as yourself?"
9839It''s no great matter, merely a pass through our lines; but it''s your ostensible business till you get there; understand?"
9839It''s to prevent Oliver from making himself useful to the enemy, is n''t it?"
9839Kendall?"
9839Lieutenant, is she that monster''s wife?"
9839Lieutenant, there is one matter--""Yes, Captain, what is that?"
9839Like to hear it?"
9839Major, will you drop that curtain?"
9839Miss Estelle?
9839Miss Harper"knocked me down,"as we boys used to say, to Charlotte Oliver;"Charlotte, my dear, you already know Mr. Smith, I believe?"
9839Never but in one other pair of eyes?
9839Nevertheless, I insisted, would she?
9839No, that''s not my way-- Why, Smith, what gives you those starts?
9839Now, Smith, you''ve given me the gist of the matter, have n''t you?
9839Now, beyond Fayette, about seven miles north, there''s a place--""Clifton?"
9839Of course, if you do n''t want to tell--""_ May_ I tell you?"
9839Oh, Dick, what is the matter with her?"
9839Oh, good Lord, Dick, do you reckon they''ll ever be such full- blown idiots as to let me have her?"
9839Oh, how can I?"
9839Oh, my bemired soul, how much must I tell?
9839Oh,_ I_ admire him; only I do wish--""Wish what?"
9839One of the blue- coats called up to me softly:"Dying-- really?"
9839Or else, Lieutenant,--""She must have pumped others before she pumped you, eh?"
9839Ought I, now, to let the enemy get the despatch, or must I not rather keep it from him at whatever risk of death or disgrace?
9839Ought you not rather to ignore them?
9839Reach- hard Thorndyke Smith, how is this thing going to end?"
9839Same that was in the ambulance, I suppose; what was it?"
9839Scott Gholson?
9839Seh?
9839Shall I order this man to kick that door in?
9839Shall I send this boy that Yankee''s horse?"
9839Shall I sing''Am I a soldier of the cross?''"
9839Shall he tell us whatever he knows?"
9839Shall they take their saddles in, or shall they let them get wet for fear the rebels may come with the shower, as toads do?
9839She has taken you into her confidence?"
9839Smith, is there not something wrong with you to- night?"
9839Smith, where are the girls?"
9839Smith, where''s Sergeant Langley; where''s Kendall?
9839Smith?"
9839Smith?"
9839Tame ending if-- but as I looked forward again, what did I see?
9839The chaplain was a thick- set, clean- shaven, politic little fellow whose"Good- mawning, brothah?"
9839The first time I had ever seen Ferry with any of his followers about him, was he not on Charlotte''s gray, now, unluckily, beyond reach, at Wiggins?
9839Then he asked,"You want me to apply that to myself, in-- in the present case?"
9839Then she drew me down and whispered"You''ll do what I''ve asked?"
9839Then why need you hurry on now?
9839Then with passionate gravity she asked,"Now, are you going straight on to Clifton to- night-- without stopping?"
9839Then, after a pause,"Yes,"he said,"I know she could not like that move, but you remember our talk of yesterday, where we first met?"
9839Understand?"
9839Was Ned Ferry generous, pleasant, frank?
9839Was my late folly known to this crawling maligner after all?
9839Was that no part of Ned Ferry''s plan-- if the plan was his?
9839Was there here no hidden succor?
9839Was this a trifle, which only the Gholson- like smallness of my soul made spectral?
9839Was this the trivial Harry talking?
9839We are relig''--what?"
9839We shall ride for--""You ride?
9839Were those villains waiting yet, up at the ford?
9839Wh''--who is she?"
9839Wha''--what do you mean?"
9839Whah is it?"
9839What are you doing here?"
9839What command is yours, gentlemen?"
9839What does Ned Ferry know about my fitness?"
9839What does it mean?"
9839What in all hell is the reason we ca n''t do him as we''ve always done the others?"
9839What is it you would rather not tell the General and yet you must; do I know that already?"
9839What is its occasion, its origin?
9839What is that fellow''s name we used to know?
9839What was I to her?
9839What was that the preacher said this morning?
9839What was the all- subordinating need?
9839What was the explanation; had her father arrived, or-- or somebody else?
9839What will you lose?"
9839What would she do with a secret she had taken such hazards to extort?
9839When he made his adieu to her he said,"Wo n''t you let Mr. Smith halt here with me a few moments?
9839When, therefore, Gholson put the question to me squarely, Would I speak to Ferry?
9839Where is your carbine?"
9839Who and what are you?"
9839Who are you?"
9839Who was to convey the Harpers to Hazlehurst?
9839Who''s to do it if we do n''t?
9839Whoever says it ai n''t fixes the date of his own funeral, eh, boys?
9839Why do you skip them?"
9839Why is your manner so strange to me to- day?
9839Why should you think it?"
9839Why, just the way he got him, night before last,--you''ve heard that, have n''t you?"
9839Why, just the way he got him, night before last,--you''ve heard that, have you not?"
9839Why,--where''s their carryall?
9839Why_ do_ they let her?
9839With a whole world of other people''s names to choose from, why_ have_ you borrowed Charlotte Oliver''s?
9839With the rein dangling under the bits he went over the fence like a deer Ferry saluted with his straight blade"Do n''t you like him?"
9839With whose?
9839Would n''t you like to turn back and see his horse?"
9839Would you?"
9839XLII"CAN I GET THERE BY CANDLE- LIGHT?"
9839XVII TWO UNDER ONE HAT- BRIM"Is this the conservatory?"
9839Yes, Smith, well, what then?"
9839Yet all my leader answered was"You think there''s cause to change our mind?"
9839Yet in degree I am, General, because of shortcomings of mine-- faults-- errors-- that-- oh-- that have their bearing in the case, do n''t you see?"
9839You blame me some other way?"
9839You can find your way by the blessed stars, ca n''t you-- being the angel you are?"
9839You do n''t mean to say-- was that Lieutenant Ferry?"
9839You have been trading horses?"
9839You hear those footstep''there in the room behind?
9839You know that, do n''t you?
9839You know what''s-- happening,--don''t you?"
9839You sa-- ay''Is that his ma''-ied son, in yondeh; the one''ith the fah hah?''
9839You want him to- night, t''at horse?
9839You''re from New Orleans?
9839[ Illustration: Musical Notation] XLVII HE''S DEAD.--IS SHE ALIVE?
9839[ Illustration:"Do n''t you like him?"
9839a man whose perpetual vigilance at the very foremost front--""Why, what do you mean?
9839and then suddenly asked"You found him so, or--?"
9839and then to Ferry,"They might as well, might n''t they?
9839any relation to Charlotte Oliver, your so called newspaper correspondent?
9839but when would that be?
9839called the Federal officer,"who are you, over there?"
9839can it be that I am served only right?"
9839could you think she would speak with me on that subject?
9839cried the lad, letting him slide half- way down when we had all but got him up;"do n''t you see he''s dead?
9839did you notice the brown horse that man was riding who just now passed you as you turned off the road?"
9839do n''t I know?"
9839does he know Coralie Rothvelt?"
9839exact a parole from a woman?"
9839from Harry Helm?
9839have n''t seen him in his new uniform?
9839he began,"you have now_ two_ fine horses, eh?"
9839he inquired;"has the hemorrhage stopped?"
9839he knows I''m here to protect a certain person from him and--""From whom?
9839he said,"an elegant, Creole- seeming young fellow, very handsome?
9839how can you?"
9839how much was it perfidy to withhold; how much was it perfidy to confess?
9839how was that?"
9839is n''t it awful?
9839is n''t she far enough away at the nearest?
9839just tell me this; was it the Major''s brother brought it, or was it Ned Ferry?"
9839my boy, do n''t you know better than to shoot your mouth off like that?
9839my country!--My God, my country, my home!--Smith,--you know what that is you''re-- wiping off my brow,--don''t you?"
9839no; and whose were those?
9839said Ferry,"he does not live up to it?
9839she asked as we faced about in the driveway to make our walk a moment longer;"that''s a bad habit you''ve got; why do you do it?"
9839she exclaimed, in beautiful alarm,"what does it mean?"
9839she replied, ever so prettily,"do you suppose I do n''t know?
9839she''d carry it straight to market-- why not?
9839that is his married son, is he not, yonder in the cabin; the one with the fair hair?"
9839that''s_ your_ bugle, is n''t it?
9839to take up what?"
9839wha''d Gholson say?"
9839wha''d Quinn answer?"
9839what are you doing at that fence?
9839what is this trust compared to the trust I wish I might lay on you?"
9839what of that?
9839what we going to do?
9839what?--how much?
9839where had my wits been?
9839who does?
9839who?"
9839why did I give my parole?"
9839why did it have to be a stripling''s?
9839why did n''t I think of it in time?
9839why do n''t those poor Yankees give up the struggle?
9839why do n''t you shoot?"
9839why should he risk his life to bring such a thing to her?"
9839why was I chosen to do that?...
9839would any true man leave_ that_ woman behind?"
9839would such a man as that come hunting down a woman, with a troop of cavalry?"
9839you ai n''t reg- lahly in the ahmy, air you?"
9839you would n''t ask a rebel to sing that,"she sighed,"would you?"
9839you''ve told me that three times; what of it?"
5437''Can you stand?'' 5437 ''Captain Markham,''I said,''do you hear those cries for water?''
5437''Granting it, what could we do? 5437 A man approached rapidly, and asked, in a gruff voice,''What the devil are you doing here?''
5437After your hard experience, are you fully determined to go back?
5437Agreeable? 5437 All about the fight?"
5437All? 5437 Am I de trop, papa?
5437Am I to infer that mine is of a valueless nature?
5437And do those two people constitute your whole household?
5437And have you had your rations this evening?
5437And must women be timid as a matter of course?
5437And take my place contentedly among the weaker ones in your estimation?
5437And the daughter''s name?
5437And what are they, papa?
5437And when I have helped to make you well you will go and fight against the South again?
5437And you wo n''t mistrust me again?
5437Are there ghosts?
5437Are ye no better than the bloody villains in the strates?
5437Are you going to police headquarters again?
5437Are you not content to be a conventional woman?
5437Are you not learning how much it might have cost you?
5437Are you perfectly loyal to the North? 5437 Are you willing to tell me what impression he made in respect to his loyalty?"
5437Arrah, noo, Barney Ghegan, what liberties wud ye be takin''wid a respectable girl?
5437But have these wounds been dressed lately?
5437But how can I ever undeceive him?
5437But how, how, Merwyn? 5437 But if I bring him here you will be polite to him?"
5437But what does this uniform mean?
5437But where can you go at this time?
5437But you trust him now, papa?
5437But you will come soon?
5437But, papa, am I bound to do this for people who are disagreeable to me and who do n''t meet my views at all?
5437By the way,he remarked, abruptly,"I suppose you never punished Merwyn as we both, at one time, felt that he deserved?
5437Can it be possible?
5437Can you bring me a certificate of your character?
5437Come to New York for quiet?
5437Come, Miss Marian, what is the use of words when I have had such an example of deeds? 5437 Come, report, report,"cried several voices;"where have you been?"
5437Condition? 5437 Considerin''the hot night, Barney, would n''t it be better for me to blow could?"
5437Did I not say they were my equals? 5437 Did he not suggest that it would be a very proper thing for you to do, also?"
5437Did my father''s moods pass away?
5437Did you do that?
5437Do n''t you know?
5437Do n''t you remember MacIan, the young chief of Clan Quhele? 5437 Do you fear any special danger to- night, papa?"
5437Do you look upon me as an enemy?
5437Do you love him?
5437Do you not think I might do a great deal better?
5437Do you remember the conversation we had here last June?
5437Do you remember, darling, my words when I said,''I do not know how much it might cost you in the end to dismiss Mr. Merwyn finally''?
5437Do you think the crisis may come to- night?
5437Do your relations to Mr. Merwyn permit you to give me some information concerning him?
5437Does the family know it?
5437Engaged to any one except me? 5437 English girls are not so--""Fast?"
5437From what section have you just come?
5437Halt, sir-- military jargon already-- how can you continue your quarrel with Mr. Lanniere without involving my name?
5437Has a physician seen him yet?
5437Has any one seen your colored servant to- day?
5437Has he been unbosoming himself to you?
5437Has he commissioned you to help him?
5437Has he not short and slightly curly hair, dark eyes, and an impudent stare?
5437Has she been listening?
5437Have I sent you more bills than usual?
5437Have I shown lack of interest, papa?
5437Have n''t you seen them this morning?
5437Have you ice- water in your veins?
5437Have you seen-- do you think Mr. Merwyn will be here again?
5437How about Lane?
5437How about to- night?
5437How can I assure you that I am not?
5437How can I distinguish between my friends, when each one surpasses even my ideal of manly action?
5437How can you know all this?
5437How could he help risking everything? 5437 How could you suggest or think such a thing?
5437How did he entertain you? 5437 How did you know that I rode up town?"
5437How do I know what I shall do?
5437How do you know that, when you do n''t understand him?
5437How have you succeeded?
5437How is it that you are so favored?
5437How long do you expect to remain here, Merwyn?
5437How many could ye muster?
5437How many were there?
5437How should I know? 5437 How should I?
5437How so?
5437I do n''t look like it, do I? 5437 I do n''t wonder,"said Suwanee, indignantly;"but then what''s the use?
5437I have just returned from my country place,Merwyn began,"and shall not have to go there very soon again, Can I call upon you as usual?"
5437I sha''n''t be poaching on your grounds, shall I?
5437If I make good my words, will you be my friend?
5437If that''s the lark we have on foot, can ye promise that yer gang''ll join us?
5437If you can so bless your enemies, what must be the experience of your friends, one of whom I intend to be?
5437Is it anything private, my man?
5437Is it not enough that your troubles trouble me?
5437Is it so great an honor?
5437Is it very difficult to become her friend?
5437Is not my word sufficient?
5437Is that all?
5437Is there anything startling and incongruous in my picture?
5437It was he whom you meant, when you said that some one might come who would divert my thoughts?
5437Know what?
5437Mamma, you have not given him any encouragement? 5437 Mamma,"he said, in the tone she so well remembered,"is not my life even partially my own?
5437May I ask if your letter is from Strahan?
5437May I ask what Mrs. Merwyn would prefer?
5437May I ask your motive?
5437May I not haunt you anyway?
5437May it not be discovered for her by one who is better acquainted with life? 5437 Met?
5437Miss Suwanee,--and his voice was scarcely audible,--"do you think we can be overheard?"
5437Mr. Merwyn, will you take an older man''s advice?
5437Mrs. Merwyn,replied Strahan,"is that the worst that could happen?"
5437Must I be humiliated in my own home?
5437No more eager?
5437Now what can I do for you? 5437 Now, tell me truly, is n''t there anything you wish?"
5437O Miss Suwanee, have I won no rights as a friend? 5437 O Sally, me darlint, what''s the use of batin''around the bush?
5437Oh, can it be right?
5437Oh, she''s a bit of a coquette, then?
5437Oh, you do?
5437Oh,he exclaimed, throwing himself on a lounge,"is n''t this infinitely better than a stifling Southern prison?"
5437One of my men now said to me,''Captain, why do n''t you go to the rear? 5437 One question will settle all: Can you return my love?"
5437Papa, should not something be done to find and protect Mammy Borden?
5437Papa, these events will bring no changes to you? 5437 Probably he does understand it, and that is what he meant by his words to- night, when he said,''What is this storm, or what a battle?''"
5437Prosaic day? 5437 Ready?"
5437Shall I go and give him your compliments and the message you spoke of at dinner?
5437Shall you see much of him while we are compelled to remain in this detestable land?
5437Then I am personally nothing to you?
5437Then not as a friend?
5437Then ye''re wan wid us?
5437Then you are better?
5437Then, to use your own words, he was''befittingly humble''? 5437 This to me, who listened to the story of Gettysburg?"
5437Treachery, papa?
5437WHAT next?
5437Was he as complacent and superior as ever?
5437Was he expected by his family?
5437Was it Mr. Merwyn that called so late?
5437Was my father insane when he quietly insisted on his rights, yielding you yours? 5437 Was that the impression I made?
5437We asked ourselves,''What chance have our thin ranks against those four distinct, heavy battle lines advancing to assault us?'' 5437 Well, papa,"said Marian, joining him later in the library,"did you and Mr. Merwyn settle the precise date when the Dutch took Holland?"
5437Well, what do we care? 5437 Well,"said he, flushing,"what does it mean?"
5437Well?
5437Well?
5437Well?
5437Were you content with me, papa?
5437Were you exposed at this time to the enemy''s shells?
5437What am I thinking of?
5437What are you doing here?
5437What chance have I had to explain? 5437 What chivalrous deed has Strahan performed?"
5437What definite thing shall I do to- morrow?
5437What do you mean, sir? 5437 What do you think I ought to do, papa?"
5437What does his mother think of his intentions toward me?
5437What does it matter how others see it? 5437 What gives you such an impression?"
5437What have ye done wid him?
5437What if they have? 5437 What is he in his own heart and soul?"
5437What is that, papa?
5437What is the use of anger?
5437What kept you so late?
5437What kind of girls have they in the North, anyway, that he goes on so? 5437 What makes you think I shall be tired of you soon, papa?"
5437What reason had you to expect more?
5437What will be your future action towards me?
5437What would your father have said to me if one of those wretches had fired and wounded you?
5437What''s the use of women distressing themselves with such things?
5437What''s your name?
5437When are you going to give me a chance to answer?
5437Where are they now?
5437Where is Willard?
5437Where will ye foind the girl that tells all she knows?
5437Where''s your command?
5437Whither is your subtlety tending? 5437 Who are they, anyway?"
5437Who are they?
5437Who can know I am in town?
5437Who has a better right-- who can do more for a child than a mother?
5437Who is it?
5437Why could you not have come before?--why could you not have told me?
5437Why did you take such a risk?
5437Why do you have to work so hard, papa?
5437Why does he not join you in the field?
5437Why have you faith in me?
5437Why is it unreasonable?
5437Why is not this my attitude towards you?
5437Why need you go out again when you are so weary?
5437Why not?
5437Why say''ignore''? 5437 Why should I not be with one I trust so absolutely?
5437Why should n''t he sleep after such a day as he has seen? 5437 Why should there not be?
5437Why should you? 5437 Why then has he so awakened your sympathy?"
5437Why think of him at all, Marian?
5437Why, Marian, do you not see how infinitely more to me you are already, although scarcely beyond the wish to be different from what you were? 5437 Why, how so?"
5437Why?
5437Will not, you mean?
5437Will you do as I wish?
5437Will you have no mercy on the girl who was so weak as to be almost hysterical?
5437Will you introduce me to her?
5437Will you kindly give Mr. Vosburgh that book?
5437Will you please give this note to Miss Vosburgh?
5437Will you please tell me just what you mean when you say I have spoiled your life?
5437Will you punish me if I can not help being far more?
5437Will you, then, permit me to renew my old request?
5437Willard,she said, slowly, and in a voice that pierced his indifference,"have you any regard for me?"
5437Women? 5437 Would it be too much trouble for you to let me know how he is, should he be very seriously ill?"
5437Would n''t she help us?
5437Would you truly give your life for me?
5437Wud Mr. Vosburgh let me spake to him a moment?
5437Yes, and-- and-- Well, what part did Mr. Merwyn take in it?
5437Yes; when shall I forget it?
5437You are not consumed with admiration for girls''ways, are you, papa?
5437You are not on duty evenings?
5437You ask for downright sincerity?
5437You have come to the country for rest and recuperation, Miss Marian?
5437You have won it,--that is--"That is--? 5437 You know, then, where I live?"
5437You propose to ignore society then?
5437You surely believe there is still hope?
5437You wanted to see me a little, too, did n''t you? 5437 You will go with me?"
5437You, also, are satisfied, then, that it will be a losing fight?
5437''As well- born,''did you say?
5437''Faix,''remarked that potentate, sniffing around disdainfully the day we arrived,''does yez expects the loikes o''me to stop in this lonesomeness?
5437''What''s yer name?''
5437--''Did de res''seem quiet?''
5437--''Which room?''
5437--she clasped her hand over her eyes,--"what is all this tending to?
5437A day or two later she asked, abruptly,"Will you use your means and influence against the South?"
5437Again there was a quick, auroral flush, and then, with increased pallor and coldness, she asked,"Have I failed in courtesy?"
5437Am I an intruder?
5437Am I not right, mamma?"
5437An acquaintance down town said:''What''s up, Vosburgh?
5437An''what''s the nonsense ye''re growlin''at?
5437And what could she ever be but an accessory of his Burgundy?
5437Are dere any Yanks in de house?''
5437Are not pictures like people a little?
5437Are ye goin''to blow hot, or are ye goin''to blow could?"
5437Are you content?"
5437Are you not satisfied now that you can be unconventional without being queer?
5437Are you not tired of me yet?"
5437Are you so indifferent?
5437Are you true men or traitors?
5437Are you, as well as mamma, an ally of Mr. Merwyn?
5437Arthur, please, you wo n''t get reckless in camp?
5437As if stung, the young girl took a step towards him, and said, indignantly:"What was the nature of your compliment?
5437As soon as Missy Roberta see de cap''n wid de light from de open doah shinin''on his face, she comes an''ask,''What does dis outrage mean?''
5437As soon as danger no longer threatens you, wo n''t you let me do a little, although I am only a girl?"
5437At dinner, that evening, Mr. Vosburgh smiled significantly at Marian, and said,"Who do you think called on me to- day?"
5437At last Merwyn opened his eyes and asked, feebly:"Where am I?
5437At last Mr. Vosburgh said,"Will you please come with me to my library for a few minutes?"
5437At last he asked, in a low, stern voice,"Why did you bind me with that oath?"
5437At last he said:"May I take the book home?
5437Awed, overwhelmed, they stole to the back parlor; but Marian soon faltered,"O Mr. Merwyn, wo n''t you forgive me?"
5437Barney?
5437Blauvelt?"
5437But have n''t I explained why I can not help thinking of him to some extent?"
5437But what am I to do?
5437But what has all this to do with the sacred instinct, the pure, unbounded love which compels me to seek you as my wife?"
5437But what has been his course?
5437But what part would be taken by this strange son who seemed equally endowed with graceful indolence and indomitable will?
5437But what was the purpose?
5437But what''s the use?
5437But who can tell what a day will bring forth?
5437By the way, have you seen him?"
5437CAN she understand it?"
5437Ca n''t you repent of your sins in some other way?"
5437Can I not help myself?"
5437Can you be trusted?"
5437Can you believe it, papa?
5437Can you guess some of my motives for this kind of talk?"
5437Can you listen to me patiently?"
5437Can you now doubt that you will be companionable to me?
5437Come, what''s beneath it?"
5437Could I do anything oppressed with doubt and fear?
5437Could I have prevented him from doing this?
5437Could he have run away?
5437Could it be possible that the enemy''s fire was so destructive that our forces were paralyzed?
5437Could our guns have been silenced?
5437Could she carry out the scheme of life which her father had suggested?
5437Could there be a worse satire on all the fine things written about woman and her influence than my hitherto vain and complacent self?"
5437Could you, with a friend in such peril?"
5437Den I say,''Dat you, Missy Roberta?''
5437Den he ask,''Were you''tacked also?''
5437Den he look at me sharp an''say,''Can I trus''yer?''
5437Den he tought a minute, an''went back ter de fire an''tore out a little book de paper we brought, an''he says,''What your moder''s name?''
5437Den she say,''Shell we go in de parlor?''
5437Did Shakespeare, as a child, propose to write the plays which have made him chief among men?
5437Did he want more from her than the common and instinctive affection of a child for its parent?
5437Did n''t you regard me as one of the girls''in our set''as you phrase it, that would jump at the chance?"
5437Did ye think a woman was a- goin''to chase ye over hill and down dale and catch ye by the scruff of the neck?
5437Did you class me with Strahan, who can take a refusal as he would lose a game of whist?
5437Do I suggest a crying need for recuperation?"
5437Do n''t you remember?"
5437Do n''t you see, papa?
5437Do n''t you understand me?"
5437Do you know the thought that has been uppermost in my mind since you joined me?"
5437Do you know where my father is at this moment?"
5437Do you mean that her good- will can be won only at the point of the bayonet?"
5437Do you not agree with me?"
5437Do you not know that they are burning houses?
5437Do you not see that if your name was Arthur Vosburgh, I could scarcely feel differently?
5437Do you think I can ever love any one as I do you?
5437Do you think I will tamely permit you to call my noble father little better than a fool?
5437Do you think his distant manner deceives me for a moment?
5437Do you think me capable of cherishing a petty spite after you had proved yourself the peer of my other friends?"
5437Do you think me so very old?"
5437Do you think that such a man as I can exist without heart and soul?
5437Do you understand me?"
5437Do you understand the latter weapon?"
5437Do you want one?"
5437Giving you all that is best and most sacred in my nature how can you send me away as if I had no part or lot in your life?
5437Granting this, the thoughts asserted themselves:"Why am I called upon to resent his course?
5437Had Northern and Southern blood so neutralized the heart of this youth that he was indifferent to both sections?
5437Had he abandoned his calculating policy, and was he cherishing some loyal purpose?
5437Had he at last found his manhood, and did he intend to assert it?
5437Had my final words no weight with her?
5437Had she given him the impression that she could do this?
5437Has he been talking to you about the''trend of the centuries''?"
5437Has he shown any conceit, complacency, or patronizing airs since?"
5437Has not Mrs. Vosburgh told you something of the nature of my interview with her?"
5437Has the day been very long and lonely?
5437Have I no right to plans and hopes?"
5437Have I not just discovered that I misjudged one?
5437Have I offended her so deeply that she can not meet me again?
5437Have I shown any want of respect?"
5437Have our troops scored a point?''
5437Have we not recently heard of two Southern girls who cheered on their friends in battle with bullets flying around them?
5437Have you arms?"
5437Have you not both slept and dreamed?"
5437He colored, but asked, quietly,"What part are you taking?"
5437He escaped then?"
5437He has no sympathy with the South or his mother''s views, yet why should he not say, frankly,''I can not fight against my mother''s people''?
5437He hesitated a moment, and then asked, abruptly,"Miss Marian, have you read to- day''s paper?"
5437He immediately arose and exclaimed,"Miss Vosburgh, is it I that you fear, or a glimpse of my picture?"
5437He looked at her a moment in silence, almost as if she were a vision, then began, slowly and gravely:"Miss Barkdale, what can I say to you?
5437He looked at her eagerly, as he said,"You have thought a great deal-- have you thought about me?"
5437He smiled and said,"He appears rather pensive and preoccupied, does n''t he?"
5437He sprung to his feet and exploded in the words:"Sally Maguire, will ye be me woife?
5437He turn her''roun''an''push her back in de room, an''den says:''Lady, does you tink a soger can disobey orders?
5437He, thinking her smile incredulous, resumed:"You doubt this?"
5437Heard good news?
5437Her father''s inner life had been a revelation to her, and she was led to query:"Why does not mamma understand it?
5437Her large, lustrous eyes were dim with tears, as she asked, falteringly,"Tell me the truth, Mr. Strahan; do you think my brother is very ill?"
5437His mind having been relieved of all scruples of this character, he looked forward complacently to the prospect of winning-- what?
5437His mother looked at him fixedly for a moment, and then asked,"Why is young Strahan in THAT uniform?"
5437How can I go on hereafter amusing myself in what now seems a vulgar, base, unwomanly way?
5437How can I make you understand what I feel?
5437How can I manage with such proud, chivalric women as you and your mother and sister?
5437How coomes it ye''re so hand- and- glove wid an Irishman, when ye spake no brogue at all?"
5437How could it be otherwise when he himself could not look back upon the event without a sense of deep personal humiliation?
5437How long does one thought remain uppermost in a girl''s mind?"
5437How much do you mean?"
5437How much would it cost me to dispense with his society altogether?"
5437How shall I ever get through with the time?"
5437How shall I grow or develop?"
5437How should anyone know till he has lived out its bitterness?
5437How should she go on with it?
5437How should she take up life again?
5437How should you like that?
5437How vividly come back the words he spoke last December,''What is the storm, and what the danger, to that which I am facing?''
5437How--""Mr. Vosburgh,"cried Merwyn,"what honor or privilege could I ask greater than that of being your daughter''s protector during your absence?
5437I admit that I was speechless at first before the magnitude of your sorrows; but must this accursed war go on forever, blighting life and hope?
5437I feel, however, that one question is due to us both,--Is my society a disagreeable intrusion?"
5437I goes to de doah an''say,''Who''s dar?''
5437I have known society girls to do such things, have n''t you?"
5437I suppose you were at the depot to see your friend, Mr. Strahan, depart?"
5437I suppose, Miss Vosburgh, I may report what little I have to say in the presence of these gentlemen?
5437I was a- helpin''Missy S''wanee, an''she say to me,''Zeb, could you eber tink dat a Yankee cap''n could be such a gemlin?''
5437If Captain Lane could watch all night and fight in the morning, ca n''t we listen for an hour longer?"
5437If I am the girl you believe me to be, what greater punishment could I have than to know that I had harmed a man like you?
5437If I can not do a little of what you suggest, of what account am I to my friends?"
5437If Strahan ca n''t teach us the etiquette of war, who can?"
5437If he wishes to serve the government in some civilian capacity, and is well paid for it, why should n''t he?
5437If her clear young eyes would not see him through a golden halo, but only as a man and a possible mate, what could he be to her?
5437If her father came and approved of his course, how could she ever look one so wronged in the face again?
5437If one of my company will volunteer to go with me, will you give him your permission?
5437If she knew the wealth and position I could give her immediately, would not these certainties bring a different expression into her eyes?
5437If there is nothing which will not bear the light, why is he so reticent even to his friend?"
5437If to this she added intelligent love, appreciation, and sympathy, would he care?
5437If your colonel was sick and wounded at the North would n''t you like some woman to cheer him up?"
5437In saying good- by wo n''t you shake hands?"
5437In the face of this stern fact do you suppose I am going to try to fish up some germs of manhood for your inspection?
5437In woman''s experience is not happiness more often thrust upon her than achieved?
5437In your work, I mean?"
5437Indeed, why should I inflict myself on her any more?
5437Is a woman to be only a man''s plaything, and a dangerous one at that?"
5437Is he not acting, with one exception, as you would wish?
5437Is he not trying to do so?
5437Is it a little thing that I should think of you first and feel that I shall miss you most when I am so distraught with anxiety?"
5437Is it strange that a mere boy of twenty- one should be greatly influenced by his mother and her aristocratic friends?
5437Is it strange, then, that I can not feel exactly as you do, or as some of your friends do?"
5437Is it strange, then, that I should love that sunny land?"
5437Is n''t it wonderful what Mr. Merwyn has done in the past few days?"
5437Is that the gist of your fine words, after all?"
5437Is there anything you would like,--anything we can do for you to help you get well?"
5437Is there no escape from this intrusion?"
5437Is there not a chance for me?
5437Is this Miss Vosburgh such a fright?"
5437It did not occur to him that he had arrived at his benign mood by asking himself the question,"Why should I not please myself?"
5437It was his duty to sleep, was n''t it?
5437Lane?"
5437Let me apply your words to one definite problem,--How can I be more helpful and companionable to you?"
5437Marian bit her lip with something like vexation, then said, reproachfully,"Papa, you ca n''t think that I care for him?"
5437Marian sighed, as she thought:"I now begin to see how well papa understands mamma, but has she any gauge by which to measure him?
5437Marian thought,"Ah, why does not mamma idolize such a man and find her best life in making the most of his life?"
5437Marian, are you willing to stay?"
5437Marian, you do forgive me in the very depths of your heart?"
5437May I call on you to- morrow and learn Miss Vosburgh''s decision?"
5437May I write to you sometimes?
5437May n''t I stay?"
5437Merwyn was pale and evidently embarrassed as he asked,"Mr. Vosburgh, have you a few moments of leisure?"
5437Merwyn?"
5437Merwyn?"
5437Merwyn?"
5437Merwyn?"
5437Merwyn?"
5437Merwyn?"
5437Merwyn?"
5437More importunate still was the question,"What has the future in store for me and for those I love?
5437Mr. Merwyn, are you willing to take the risks that I shall?"
5437Mr. Vosburgh''s eyes rested anxiously on his daughter, and he asked, gravely,"Marian, is it best for you to hear more of this to- night?"
5437Mr. Vosburgh''s face was sad and stern in its expression, and when Marian asked,"Papa, is it so bad as the papers say?"
5437Must I wait until the coffee boils?"
5437My questions narrow down to these: Is Miss Vosburgh disposed to give me only justice?
5437None doubted the truth of his word; but who should lead the small force at hand?
5437Not Miss Marian?"
5437Now I think of it, what did n''t he talk about?
5437Now am I not talking to you like a sister?"
5437Now what is troubling you, that your brow also is clouded?"
5437Now, are you not shocked and pained at my frivolous life?"
5437Now,"he concluded, smiling,"is my common- sense applied to these affairs unnatural or unreasonable?"
5437Of course you understand the risk you run when once beyond our pickets?''
5437Of what value is my life if it is not mine?
5437Oh, that I could-- but how can I?
5437Oh, why do n''t mamma feel and see more?
5437Or was it the beginning of the revolution so long feared, but not now guarded against?
5437Or, would it be nobler to devote myself to a true, fine man, like Mr. Lane, no matter how I felt?"
5437Papa, have you read''The Fair Maid of Perth''?"
5437Papa, wo n''t you let me go as a nurse?
5437Perhaps she loves some one else?"
5437Perhaps you want a career,--something that will give you a larger place in the public eye?"
5437Play into our hands and compass his own defeat?
5437Reaching the hospital, Sally rushed into the office with the breathless demand,"Where''s Barney?"
5437Shall I bring young Merwyn over to see you after he arrives?"
5437Shall I ever see one who will make all the others appear as nothing?
5437Shall I read to you a little while, or go at once?"
5437Shall you fear to go with me now?
5437She asked, eagerly,"Will you see him often?"
5437She could scarcely believe it, and exclaimed,"You face a cannon?"
5437She covered her hot face with her hands as the question took the form:"Wherein am I worse?
5437She saw Lane''s handwriting and said,"Will you pardon me a moment, that I may learn that my FRIEND is well?"
5437She would wish they might remain friends-- why could they not, when she liked him so much?
5437So the Irish Biddy has gone with her plunder?
5437Strahan?"
5437Suwanee, Suwanee, why do you refuse to take this dross from me when I would give my heart''s blood to shield you from harm?"
5437The color deepened slightly in her face as she replied:"Why should n''t I think of him to some extent?
5437The people were asking:"Where is the army of the Potomac?
5437The questions"Where is Lee, and what are his purposes?
5437Then the query presented itself:"How far is it from the truth?
5437Therefore why should she think of him with scorn and bitterness?
5437They do n''t seem very near of kin, do they?
5437To- night she found herself querying:"Are there men to- day who are not half what they might have been because of mamma''s delusive smiles?
5437Was it the theme wholly that interested her?
5437Was it true, then, that she was no better than the coquettish maid, the Irish servant in the family''s employ?
5437Was it your purpose to win a genuine triumph over a man who cared nothing for other women?
5437Was the rebellion against the government about to become general in the great centres of population?
5437Was there a reciprocal relation of forces which would render her schemes futile?
5437Was there irony in the slight accent on the word"brave"?
5437Was there such a difference between prettiness and beauty?
5437Was this the only way in which she could love?
5437We had to cope with the ablest general of the South and his great army, with the peace(?)
5437We try to save life when there is life--""Where is he?"
5437Well, since we have begun on the basis of such absolute frankness on my part, my next thought is, What shall be our relations while you are here?
5437Were his tireless strength and energy to accomplish nothing better than the climbing of distant mountains?
5437Were they orders or at least invitations, for a general uprising against all authority?
5437What are you doin''here?''
5437What are your paltry thousands to me?
5437What can he mean?
5437What can it be doing, that the invasion goes on so long unchecked?"
5437What can they mean to her when nothing is left for me, apparently, but a safe, luxurious life?
5437What could be more natural than that a high- spirited young man should enter the army of his own free will?
5437What could he hope?
5437What could she do at the present moment but the thing she proposed to do?
5437What did he hope?
5437What did he mean by his passionate words,''I shall measure everything hereafter by the breadth of your woman''s soul''?
5437What did he talk about?"
5437What did it mean?
5437What did you ask him to promise?
5437What did you think of me the first evening you spent here?
5437What do I care for her, or any here?
5437What do I care for little Strahan or his opinions?
5437What do ye take me for?"
5437What do you mean by the words?
5437What do you think, papa?
5437What does he know about a true woman''s soul?
5437What does it all mean?
5437What does the word mean?"
5437What does your unseemly guise mean?
5437What else could his words mean to- night?
5437What had she done?
5437What has happened to him?"
5437What has happened?"
5437What has happened?"
5437What has reason to do with affairs of this kind?"
5437What have I been doing that this coarse kitchen- maid can run so close a parallel between her life and mine?
5437What have I been doing?
5437What have the words amounted to?
5437What have you asked but that I should sell myself for money?
5437What have you been doing and thinking about?"
5437What have you been doing this long June day, that you have been too busy for thought?"
5437What if he again seeks your society?"
5437What is he doing in these supreme hours of his country''s history?
5437What is her name?"
5437What is the matter with your arm?"
5437What is your idea of a man whom both law and custom make his own master?
5437What kind of a man would he be should he reply,''Just as you say, my dear; I''ve no conscience, or will of my own''?
5437What more could a man do?
5437What more could any man do?
5437What part did you take at the barricades?"
5437What right had he to overwhelm them with anxiety, etc., etc.?
5437What right had you to cripple my life?"
5437What secret and terrible burden has he carried patiently through all my coldness and scorn?
5437What shall we do?"
5437What should I be but a part of his possessions,--another expensive luxury in his luxurious life?
5437What should be its future record?
5437What should she think of that silent, motionless sentinel at the window?
5437What steps had I proposed taking?
5437What strange infatuation do you cherish that you can imagine that a son of Willard Merwyn has no life of his own to live?
5437What then would become of the property which you so value, were it not for my influence?
5437What triumphs?
5437What was I, myself, last June, when I was amusing myself at the expense of a man whom I knew to be so good and true?
5437What was Strahan before his manhood was awakened?
5437What was he facing?
5437What was her own nature, her starting- point?
5437What was the wound you did so much towards healing compared to the one you are giving me now?
5437What was this man''s offer but an expression of selfishness?
5437What were you giving me?
5437What were your thoughts as you came again and again?
5437What woman does not?
5437What would become of the soldiers if business in the city should cease?
5437What would life be now without you?"
5437What would you have him do?
5437What would you think of a young fellow not busy in these times?"
5437When at last they were alone in the drawing- room she said,"Is it true that you intend to enter the army?"
5437When had she given so much thought to a man whom she had disliked?
5437When he came at six o''clock, she met him eagerly, and almost her first words were,"Papa, there has n''t been any danger to- day?"
5437When observed, he asked, a little abruptly:"Is the matter to which Mr. Strahan referred a secret which you wish kept?"
5437When shall I forget this crowning proof of your estimate and esteem?
5437When she ceased he said:--"Do n''t you see I was right in saying that your own tact would guide you better than my reason?
5437When time hangs heavy on your hands, would it give you any satisfaction to write to me?"
5437When to be conventional is to be like a kitchen- maid, and worse, do you wonder at my revolt from the past?"
5437When was the heroic policeman sung in homeric verse before?
5437When will our authorities and the North awake to the truth that this is a life- and- death struggle, and that there must be no more nonsense?"
5437When would his mother''s letter come?
5437Where are you that you can give no counsel, no help?"
5437Where did you see him?"
5437Where else shud we go?"
5437Where is he?
5437Where shall we go?"
5437Where will you make headquarters?"
5437Where''s Blauvelt?"
5437Where?"
5437Wherein lay the difference between her and the maid?
5437Wherein was she better?
5437While we are absent may I ask if you have your weapons ready?"
5437Who could ever take their place or fill the silence made by their hushed voices?
5437Who first came to your protection?"
5437Who mounted his horse in that storm of shells and bullets in spite of friendly remonstrances, and said,''The men must see us to- day''?
5437Who the divil is that chap on the box wid ye?"
5437Why am I thinking more of him than of the riot, our danger, yes, even my father?"
5437Why ca n''t he realize that, to one of my nature, fording the icy Rappahannock to- night would count for more than his writing checks for millions?"
5437Why can he not?
5437Why could I not have seen that nothing had ever touched him deeply enough to show what he was, or, at least, of what he was capable?
5437Why did he not stay?"
5437Why did it not?
5437Why did n''t he fill his box, instead of selfishly keeping it all to himself?"
5437Why did you smile so sweetly after you understood me, since you had nothing better in store?
5437Why did your eyes draw out my heart and soul?
5437Why do I say other friends?
5437Why does he not go, unless his fear is greater than his love for me?
5437Why is it essential that I should be so assured?"
5437Why must I be punished as if I had committed a deliberate crime?
5437Why not imagine me a venerable father, dozing after a good dinner, and make your first essay at the confessional?"
5437Why not let this sentence suggest the social scheme of your life?
5437Why not return?
5437Why otherwise should she be so strangely happy and spiritually exalted?
5437Why should I be raising such lofty standards of self- sacrifice when I can not give love to one who most needs it, most deserves it?"
5437Why should I intrude, when you have nature before you and the muse looking over your shoulder?"
5437Why should I not be when the future is so uncertain?
5437Why should n''t I have an Irishman for a friend, if he''s a good fellow, I''d like to know?"
5437Why speak of friendship, Captain Lane, when rivers of blood flow between us,--rivers fed from the veins of my kindred?"
5437Why then do n''t you enjoy it?
5437Why was I so blind to this?
5437Why was I so made that I could, unconsciously, give my very soul to this stranger?
5437Why was this angry multitude gathering here within a few rods of rural loveliness, their hoarse cries blending with the songs of robins and thrushes?
5437Why were her pride, exultation, and deep solicitude too near akin to the emotions she would have felt had he been her brother?
5437Why wo n''t Miss Vosburgh take a wedding trip with you?"
5437Why would it be bad taste for us to call on Mrs. Strahan this evening?
5437Why, you were as brave as I. I often ask myself, can you be a friend for my own sake, because of some inherent congeniality?
5437Will you also promise this?"
5437Will you help carry out the laws, even against your own flesh and blood, if necessary?"
5437Will you listen to me patiently?"
5437Will you mount guard night and day in my absence?"
5437Will you please inform them that breakfast is waiting?"
5437Will you please take this chair?
5437Will you promise never to take arms against the South?"
5437Wo n''t you stay and criticise my picture for me?"
5437Would HE come again after my treatment this morning?"
5437Would its awakening be as terrible as on the last three mornings?
5437Would she forgive him, one of the authors of her people''s bleeding wounds?
5437Would she receive him?
5437Would she think of this also?
5437Would the assault be made?
5437Would the sacred, mysterious, and irresistible impulses of the heart, of which she had read, follow naturally in due time?
5437Would you not be happier if you followed it?"
5437Would you not like to write a few lines to Strahan?
5437Yet how can I leave my child alone?
5437Yet what can I ever appear to be but a shrinking coward?
5437You are not too busy?"
5437You certainly have n''t stood here,''like Patience on a monument,''since I left?"
5437You do n''t realize what you are saying, for you would not have me act from purely mercenary motives?"
5437You have not compromised yourself, or me?"
5437You have something to read?
5437You in danger, papa?"
5437You left her well, I trust?"
5437You made use of the expression''How shall I make you understand?''
5437You recognize this fact, do you not?
5437You said,''if you loved''--do you not love any one?"
5437You thoughtful beyond your years?--you think for me?
5437You wo n''t mope, will you?
5437Your plans and hopes?
5437and had she, by long residence abroad, and indulgence, made him so cosmopolitan that he merely looked upon the world as"his oyster"?
5437and was disaster threatening us?
5437and what is the army of the Potomac about?"
5437and who are you?"
5437and why do you bar and bolt everything so timidly?"
5437and would he maintain indifference towards a struggle for a dominion beyond Oriental dreams?
5437are you not going back to England with us?"
5437are you wounded?"
5437brave men or cowards?
5437cried Marian, who proved that she was getting well by a tendency to speak sharply,"do you wish papa to be poorer- spirited than any of the million?
5437cried Sally, who did not count timidity among her foibles;"wud ye kape a woman from goin''to her husband, a- dyin''beloikes?"
5437cried the girl, hotly,"send this faithful old woman out into the streets?
5437do n''t you know that by such an act you take your life in your hand?"
5437do n''t you know?"
5437do n''t you read the papers?
5437do n''t you see I''m winged?
5437exclained Marian,"anything worse than took place yesterday?"
5437has he taken arms against the South?"
5437have you not learned abroad that girls of my age are elderly indeed compared with men of yours?"
5437he exclaimed, with a little chiding in his tone;"is this the way you rest?
5437how can you think of such a thing?
5437how dared you come?"
5437how long have you been here?"
5437man, do you think no one but Irishmen are going to have a fist in this scrimmage?
5437or was the speaker also gaining some place in her thoughts?
5437rather, let me ask, will you not generously give me some rights?"
5437she cried, blushing scarlet"Can your fears carry you so far?"
5437she exclaimed, in sudden remorsefulness,"you wo n''t take any risks that you can honorably escape?"
5437she said, aloud,"where was your woman''s intuition?"
5437what am I to believe?"
5437what can he hope except to see me in his power, and ready to accept any terms he may choose to offer?
5437what kind of women have you been accustomed to meet in the North?
5437what''s a wurld uv frin''s if I lose Barney?
5437what''s that to a girl like you?
5437when has any been seen?
5437why do n''t you explain?"
5437why is he not with Lane and Strahan, unless he has a constitutional dread that paralyzes him?
5437you are not cultivating a soldier''s penchant for women?"
5437you here?
14153''Do you think it fordable?'' 14153 A ball"--said John--"in the stable?"
14153A woman''s minute or a man''s minute?
14153About the election, you mean?
14153About the mills?
14153After all, what does it matter?
14153Ah, Mrs. Penhallow, there must be in the North and South many families divided in opinion; what do you suppose they do? 14153 Ah,"returned Cushing,"but will they be asked to talk today?"
14153All well at Grey Pine?
14153Am I to be allowed to write to her?
14153Am I? 14153 Am I?
14153Am I? 14153 An operation?"
14153And Kansas?
14153And do n''t they pay slaves?
14153And do you not?
14153And he is in this county?
14153And here is mine,said Leila, and laughing asked with both hands behind her back,"Which hand, John?"
14153And how am I to keep young, Miss Grey?
14153And how is Pole, aunt; and the doctor and Crocker and his fat wife-- oh, and everybody?
14153And may I ask where do I come in?
14153And not otherwise?
14153And ours?
14153And so it was Grey?
14153And so, when that failed, you went to bank and drew out the poor fellow''s savings?
14153And still you advise it?
14153And the general election?
14153And then?
14153And they mean to take him back?
14153And what did he say?
14153And what did he say?
14153And what do you think about, John?
14153And what else should I be?
14153And what else?
14153And what of Leila? 14153 And what, John-- men eating?"
14153And where did you get all this about a prig?
14153And where do I come in?
14153And where, my dear, did you get all this gossip?
14153And who will cast the first stone?
14153And why?
14153And you are glad to go?
14153And you are going on with the business?
14153And you got on again?
14153And you let all these suns go down upon your wrath?
14153And you really mean that?
14153And you will write to me, Leila?
14153And you would like that best?
14153And you write to him, of course?
14153And you, John Penhallow, my brother''s son, were afraid?
14153And you, dear lady?
14153And your own?
14153Ann,he said,"have you seen the papers to- day?"
14153Any bad news, Leila?
14153Any barber in this town?
14153Any letters from my boy?
14153Any messages for aunt or uncle?
14153Any other stable slang, Leila?
14153Anything I can do for you?
14153Anything else?
14153Anything new at Westways?
14153Are n''t you ashamed?
14153Are n''t you getting wet, John?
14153Are they so bad?
14153Are you afraid, John? 14153 Are you asleep?
14153Are you aware, Penhallow, that this wicked business about Josiah has beaten Buchanan in Westways? 14153 Are you badly hurt?"
14153Are you fully resolved on this, Penhallow?
14153Are you glad to be free?
14153Are you hit?
14153Are you not well?
14153Are you really able?
14153Are you through, with this nonsense, Leila?
14153Are you tired?
14153Are you?
14153Busted?
14153But Aunt Ann?
14153But after all,said Mrs. Ann,"is it so very comic?"
14153But how will I ever get it?
14153But if he is so good a soldier, why did he make what you call a frontal attack on entrenched troops at Malvern?
14153But what do you mean, Leila? 14153 But what examination remains?"
14153But what is an abolitionist, aunt?
14153But what is it-- trust me a little-- what is it?
14153But what would you do, uncle?
14153But why did you run away?
14153But why do you do it?
14153But why,she urged,"why do you go?"
14153But why?
14153But why?
14153But why?
14153But will it, James?
14153But, James, what shall we do with him? 14153 But, Mr. Rivers, may it not work also for good and suggest possibilities-- let you into seeing what other men may do?"
14153But, aunt, do you not understand how serious this one was?
14153But, is it safe? 14153 But, is n''t it very limited?"
14153But, why?
14153But,said John,"how can he?"
14153But,she said,"is there not work enough here?
14153Ca n''t you?
14153Can I do anything for you?
14153Can I in any way help you?
14153Can he coast? 14153 Can you account for it, Tom?"
14153Can you bear a little frank talk?
14153Can you bear-- I said it yesterday to Mrs. Penhallow-- a frank opinion?
14153Can you get my horse up?
14153Can you make out their flags?
14153Come to get those scalp- locks trimmed, John? 14153 Come to see Grace, sir?"
14153Could I not go there for a while?
14153DEAR LEILA: I am just now with the Second Corps, but where you will know in a week; now I must not say.--"What''s the date?
14153Did I? 14153 Did he say anything?"
14153Did he? 14153 Did it end there?"
14153Did many die, uncle?
14153Did she send back the tea?
14153Did she tell you that, Mark, or has it improved in your hands?
14153Did you chance to go by the old cabin?
14153Did you ever kiss a woman, John-- just for practice?
14153Did you ever read Hebrews, John? 14153 Did you find where he lives?"
14153Did you never read a poem called''The Talking Oak''? 14153 Did you notice his face?"
14153Did you?
14153Did you?
14153Did you?
14153Did_ he_ draw it-- I mean in person?
14153Do n''t you hear, Leila? 14153 Do n''t you notice, Leila, how she has kind of softened?
14153Do not hurry, John; have another cup?
14153Do with him? 14153 Do you enjoy it?"
14153Do you know that he is on the verge of complete financial ruin?
14153Do you know this General?
14153Do you really like the life here, John?
14153Do you recall, Squire, what Thucydides said of the Greeks at the time of the Peloponnesian War?
14153Do you remember how, when we were small, we used to fight violets?
14153Do you think me unreasonable, James?
14153Do you think so?
14153Do you think you convinced him?
14153Does Leila like it?
14153Does Tom McGregor swim there?
14153Does he never ride, Leila?
14153Does he require anything?
14153Does n''t the rector dine here, to- day, Leila?
14153Does she ask for me?
14153Does she like it at school?
14153Does the Emancipation Proclamation please you?
14153Dr. McGregor has, I trust, told you of our difficulties with my aunt?
14153Excuse me, sir, could I talk to you? 14153 For sale-- how much?"
14153For what?
14153From town?
14153God help me!--where can I go? 14153 Good- morning, Ellen,"he said,"what brings you here over the snow this frosty day?
14153Got hit, John? 14153 Got through, John?
14153Got what?
14153Had n''t you boys better shake hands?
14153Hancock will suffer long-- but now, about you-- did no one think you could be relieved by an operation? 14153 Has Mr. Rivers got back?"
14153Has Uncle Jim gone back to his pipe?
14153Has any one heard of Josiah?
14153Has he never been here before?
14153Has n''t it something to do with slavery? 14153 Has the town wickedness accumulated in your absence, Mark?"
14153Have I greatly troubled you?
14153Have I said a word?
14153Have n''t you any other name?
14153Have you any letters for me?
14153Have you had a fall, John? 14153 Have you seen yesterday''s papers?"
14153Have you written that letter? 14153 He is in Washington?"
14153He said:''Did they sting?'' 14153 He would get it; but what made you ask about sense of the humorous?
14153He''ll do,he murmured,"but what the deuce was my young dandy doing on the roof?"
14153Head back a bit-- that''s right comfortable now, is n''t it?
14153Heard from Mrs. Penhallow lately?
14153His lips? 14153 Hoops-- what for?"
14153How about the first polka as absolution?
14153How are my chickens?
14153How are politics, Billy?
14153How are you? 14153 How can I?"
14153How can a man venture to speak, John, like Mr. Jefferson Davis? 14153 How can he?
14153How can you say that?
14153How could you think I would kiss you twice-- I was so ashamed--"Well, Leila?
14153How did he use it, Leila?
14153How did you know all this?
14153How do I find her? 14153 How do you know he is afraid, my dear James?"
14153How do you know that?
14153How far have you travelled on that rocker, Rivers?
14153How far must I consider her, or be guided by the effect my decision will have on her? 14153 How far was he accountable, Tom?"
14153How goes the swimming, John?
14153How is Aunt Ann?
14153How is Leila?
14153How is it interesting?
14153How many rows can I knit until I hear? 14153 How many will be left?"
14153How old are you?
14153How you feeling, Master John?
14153How''s your arm, Captain? 14153 How?"
14153I did, Leila, but how did you know?
14153I do really need help-- how can I make Aunt Ann see this famous surgeon? 14153 I have myself a few words to say-- but, is that all?"
14153I suppose he recognized Josiah readily?
14153I suppose so-- what next?
14153I suppose you still swim here, every morning, Leila? 14153 I suppose, Squire, you''ll get Joe Boynton, the carpenter, to put on the roof?
14153I will not,he returned, and then--"What else is there?"
14153I wonder what Grant is doing?
14153I wonder what I would fetch, Leila?
14153I-- how the deuce should I?--what did he say?
14153I-- no-- Do you suppose I know every runaway nigger?
14153I? 14153 If by mishap he were captured while trying to escape, what then?
14153In trouble, Josiah? 14153 Indeed-- but what else?
14153Indeed?
14153Interesting, my dear? 14153 Is Hoodoo in good order?"
14153Is John ill?
14153Is he dead?
14153Is he dead?
14153Is it because the hideous business called war attracts you?
14153Is it too late?
14153Is n''t Mrs. Penhallow rather on the other side?
14153Is n''t it like a big chess- board?
14153Is n''t it queer,he said,"how people think about the same things?
14153Is n''t it, Squire? 14153 Is n''t that Leila with Rivers, Ann?"
14153Is n''t that absurd, John, as if--"Well, what more?
14153Is n''t that delightful, Uncle Jim? 14153 Is n''t there a walk down through the woods?"
14153Is obsession the word you want?
14153Is she dead?
14153Is that a charade, John? 14153 Is that all of it?"
14153Is that all, sir?
14153Is that all? 14153 Is that so?"
14153Is that wise, aunt? 14153 Is that your own wisdom, Miss Grey?
14153Is that your poetry or your folly, James Penhallow?
14153Is the Squire alive?
14153Is there any message you want me to carry?
14153Is this an ingenious little game set up between you and John?
14153Is this certain?
14153Is your letter from John, Leila?
14153It is chilly, Mark; would you like a fire?
14153It is half- past two,said General Hunt;"what next?
14153It makes one feel uncomfortable,said Penhallow, and turning to John,"Who was first there after you came?"
14153It was about her dead husband--"Am I to hear it or not?
14153It was at the bank, James?
14153It will be of use, but could n''t I persuade you to speak at the meeting next week at the mills?
14153John,said his uncle in his usual direct way,"have you ever been on the back of a horse?"
14153Know him? 14153 Look here,"said Tom McGregor turning to John,"did you tell the Squire we fellows set it up?"
14153Mark,said Mrs. Ann,"if George Grey comes-- James, did you leave the wine- closet key?"
14153May I ask why?
14153May I come?
14153May I ride today with you, uncle?
14153May I smoke?
14153Message-- who would I send messages to?
14153Mine, my dear? 14153 Must you go?"
14153My God, was that all? 14153 No one knows where you are-- you''ll go to- night?"
14153No pipe, Mark?
14153No, I am serious; but it leads up to this: Am I free to say you will vote the Republican ticket?
14153No, sir-- never no more-- and the captain and Miss Leila-- it''s awful-- where can I go?
14153No, why should I?
14153No,cried John,"and what does it matter?"
14153No-- hit in both arms-- why the deuce ca n''t I walk?
14153None for me, Uncle?
14153Now, John, what terrible task shall I put upon you? 14153 Of course not; but why my aunt, Mr. Josiah?
14153Of me? 14153 Oh, I just wondered if you''d like to change with me-- guess you would n''t for all the pain?"
14153Oh, James, must I be put in a corner?
14153Oh, John, and did n''t you know my eyes were blue?
14153Oh, Leila, is n''t it wonderful?
14153Oh, Leila, is that the best you can do?
14153Oh, do you think so? 14153 Oh, do you think so?"
14153Oh, is she? 14153 Oh, the tragedy of Arnold,--the pathos of Washington''s despair,--his words,''Who is there now I can trust?''"
14153Oh, why?
14153On what terms will you take me in? 14153 On your honour?"
14153One moment, James--"Oh, what is the matter?
14153Or a lawyer, or a doctor like Tom McGregor?
14153Or your son, Tom? 14153 Pansy-- pansy-- why is she like a pansy, Josiah?"
14153Penhallow, may I take the liberty to bother you with a bit of unasked advice?
14153Perhaps-- perhaps,he returned humbly; and then with a quite gentle retort,"Do n''t you sometimes preach too much from the head, Brother Rivers?"
14153Quiet, is n''t it? 14153 Quite too interesting, but will he try it on the Squire and your aunt?
14153Receptive?
14153See John too, Leila? 14153 Seen yesterday''s_ Press_?"
14153Shall I write it down?
14153Shall we go home?
14153Shall you ride with your uncle tomorrow, Leila?
14153She said that?
14153So Billy upset you; and John, where is he?
14153So, he will never ask me again?
14153So, then, my dear, John went and gave the man a warning?
14153Thank me, what for? 14153 Thank you and her,"he returned, and then added abruptly,"How are you meaning to vote, Squire?"
14153Thank you-- but what of the army? 14153 That fellow said nothing of Mrs. Penhallow, you are sure?"
14153The face? 14153 The right,"said Penhallow,"Miss Politician?"
14153The trouble would be, sir, who''s to shave the Colonel?
14153Then I would know--"Know what, John? 14153 Then since the world began there never was another me or Leila?"
14153Then why not to Aunt Ann?
14153Then you think I was unreasonably angry?
14153Then, James, there will be no income from the mills-- from-- from that contract?
14153There''s no news of John?
14153They are going to attack,said Haskell,"and can they mean our whole line-- or where?"
14153Think a little-- a little?
14153To whom, John?
14153Told what? 14153 Trout or baby?"
14153Uncle Jim!--what-- when?
14153Want me to steal? 14153 Was I so loved as this-- so honoured?"
14153Was Josiah really here, sir? 14153 Was Peter Lamb at the fire?"
14153Was n''t his mother a Virginia mare, James?
14153Was n''t your hero Cromwell just magnificent, stately blank verse?
14153Was the boy amused or-- or scared?
14153Well, Ann?
14153Well, James,she said,"did you ever see a better mannered lad, and so intelligent?"
14153Well, John,said the doctor,"what''s up now?
14153Well, Penhallow,he said,"what can I do for you?"
14153Well, Pole,said Rivers,"how are you and Mrs. Crocker?
14153Well, Uncle Jim-- to talk prose-- the elections please you?
14153Well, and what did Mrs. Penhallow do?
14153Well, and what of it? 14153 Well, and where, please?"
14153Well, any more news, Leila?
14153Well, are you done?
14153Well, that is exasperating? 14153 Well, was that all?"
14153Well, well, is that so? 14153 Well, what conclusion did you come to?"
14153Well, what did Pole do?
14153Well, what is it?
14153Well, what is it?
14153Well, what is it?
14153Well, what was it?
14153Well, what''s the matter? 14153 Well,"he said, with some impatience,"what is it?"
14153Well,he said,"what''s your opinion, Miss Grey?"
14153Well,said Haskell,"it would be madness-- can Lee remember Malvern Hill?"
14153Well,said Penhallow,"is this all?"
14153Well,said the little lady, Ann Penhallow,"how did the game go, John?"
14153Well,said the rector,"left anything?"
14153Well,she said,"did you see Josiah?"
14153Well?
14153Well?
14153Were guinea pigs really pigs? 14153 Were we?
14153Were you at school in Europe?
14153Were you never here before, John?
14153What about her? 14153 What about that contract for ambulances?"
14153What amuses you, James?
14153What amuses you, John?
14153What are you about?
14153What are you grinning at, you young scamp?
14153What are you thinking about?
14153What are you thinking of, Jack?
14153What better society?
14153What came, Leila?
14153What can I do for you?
14153What did he mean? 14153 What did he see?"
14153What did he want?
14153What do you know?
14153What do you mean, Ann?
14153What do you mean?
14153What do you mean?
14153What do you propose to do?
14153What do you want me to say, John Penhallow?
14153What does he say, Josiah?
14153What does he want now?
14153What does that matter? 14153 What else is there to talk about nowadays?
14153What fool did that?
14153What gets the matter with men? 14153 What happened, James?"
14153What is a meliorist, sir?
14153What is his name? 14153 What is it, Billy?"
14153What is it, James?
14153What is it, John? 14153 What is it, John?"
14153What is it, John?
14153What is it?
14153What is it?
14153What is it?
14153What is it?
14153What is swinging on a gate?
14153What is that?
14153What is the matter, my dear child?
14153What is the matter?
14153What is there, my dear Mr. Rivers, you can not get? 14153 What is your letter, Ann?"
14153What is your name?
14153What kind of questions, John?
14153What limitations?
14153What must be rather awkward?
14153What next?
14153What put Grey on the track of Josiah as a runaway? 14153 What put that into your head-- it does not seem suitable?"
14153What road is that?
14153What the deuce is the matter?
14153What then, sir?
14153What time is it, Penhallow?
14153What was it?
14153What was the matter, sir? 14153 What will they do with him?"
14153What would you give?
14153What you done to Hoodoo, Master John? 14153 What''s a rummage- sale?"
14153What''s all this row about, Ann? 14153 What''s that, Ann?"
14153What''s that, sir?
14153What''s that?
14153What''s that?
14153What''s the matter, John?
14153What''s the matter-- who is he?
14153What''s the matter? 14153 What''s wrong now, Penhallow?"
14153What''s wrong, Uncle Jim? 14153 What, about kissing?
14153What, not smoking, Grace?
14153What, you wo n''t do it?
14153What,he said,"would our children have been without you?
14153What-- already, Tom?
14153What-- what?
14153When do you go?
14153When does Mark Rivers go back?
14153When does he return?
14153When were you not at everybody''s service?
14153Where did you get this, Josiah?
14153Where did you suppose I would be? 14153 Where is Lee?"
14153Where is he? 14153 Where is your aunt?"
14153Where is your present, James?
14153Where was it?
14153Where-- Jack?
14153Which dare was it, Leila?
14153Who cares for him?
14153Who could help laughing?
14153Who drew it?
14153Who is that with Uncle James?
14153Who owns that horse?
14153Who said he was a scamp?
14153Who says I lied? 14153 Who was Prince Fine Ear?"
14153Who was it? 14153 Who''ll bid?"
14153Who''s your General?
14153Who, Lonesome Man or the spring? 14153 Who-- what flag?"
14153Who? 14153 Why did n''t you swim?"
14153Why did n''t you tell me, aunt?
14153Why did you not get up and help?
14153Why did you?
14153Why do n''t you put such reflections into verse, John? 14153 Why do n''t you smoke, John?"
14153Why do n''t you talk, John?
14153Why do they call it Indian summer?
14153Why do you do that, Uncle Jim?
14153Why do you say that?
14153Why mention that, James?
14153Why not have rocking- chairs in church, Mark? 14153 Why not, my friend?"
14153Why not?
14153Why not?
14153Why not?
14153Why not?
14153Why should n''t he be alive?
14153Why so? 14153 Why, Mr. Rivers, I know I drink, and then I''m not responsible, but how could I say to that poor old darkey what I do n''t mind I said yesterday?"
14153Why, did you never hear the rhyme about it?
14153Why, what''s the matter, sir?
14153Why? 14153 Why?
14153Why? 14153 Will I?"
14153Will aunt go to church to- morrow?
14153Wo n''t you come?
14153Wo n''t you think a little of how I feel-- and-- and shall feel?
14153Worried, Squire?
14153Would I like?
14153Would he have won, uncle?
14153Would it? 14153 Would n''t Uncle Sam make a row?"
14153Would n''t the other way be more wholesome on the whole?
14153Would you keep him here longer, if you could?
14153Would you like to be a clergyman?
14153Would you like to be bought and sold?
14153Would you like to have been there, Jack?
14153Yes, I said to George that we would buy Josiah''s freedom-- what amuses you, James?
14153Yes, I want to introduce you to-- Dixy-- yes--"And may I ride with you?
14153Yes, but shall you vote for him? 14153 Yes, sir-- what''s that?"
14153Yes, yes-- and everything-- those years of war and what it has brought us-- and my dear Uncle Jim-- and how is it to end? 14153 Yes-- but--""But what?"
14153Yes-- probably-- but who can say? 14153 Yes-- what next?"
14153Yes-- who told you to tell me?
14153Yes-- why not?
14153You ai n''t him--?? 14153 You ai n''t him--??
14153You cannot-- you really cannot-- where could you be more useful than here?
14153You did not think it impertinent, Jack?
14153You mean to preach politics, Grace?
14153You want my advice? 14153 You will do, James, whatever Dr. Askew wishes?"
14153You will help me? 14153 You wo n''t be too hard on him, James?"
14153You wo n''t telegraph?
14153--"Is that explanatory?"
14153--Isn''t it funny?"
14153A moment later Penhallow opened his eyes, sat up, and said,"Where am I?
14153A week later she spoke again,"What conclusion have you reached?"
14153All well?"
14153Am I clear?"
14153Am I clear?"
14153And John-- where is he?"
14153And Leila?
14153And do tell me how old must a girl be before she has a right to think?"
14153And is n''t it a nice, good- natured day?
14153And now, how is your beautiful Grey Pine and its mistress and Leila?
14153And now, let me know what is our lesser and more material debt?"
14153And who was Lonesome Man?"
14153And why did he himself not altogether like it?
14153And why did he not write more about himself?
14153Ann Penhallow said,"Where did you leave off, Leila?
14153Ann says,''What''s the difference?
14153Ann, how about that?"
14153Another and younger man with his arm in a sling asked,"Are they only cavalry?"
14153Any errands, my dear?"
14153Any letters for us?"
14153Any news of our John?
14153Any news?"
14153Anything I can do for him?"
14153Anything else, my dear?"
14153Anything wrong with the horses?"
14153Are n''t these flowers beautiful?
14153Are the men gone?"
14153Are there any others in the house-- servants-- any one?"
14153Are things better at the mills?"
14153Are we-- am I to lose also your friendship-- or is even that at an end?"
14153Are you cross enough for that now?"
14153Are you in pain, John?"
14153As Billy drove away, Mrs. Penhallow called back,"You will come to dinner to- day?"
14153As I came back I saw Captain Penhallow ride away-- and why not with you, Miss Grey?
14153As Rivers rose to his feet, Lamb said,"Could n''t I have just a little whisky?
14153As he bade them good- morning, his uncle said,"How goes the examination?"
14153As he stood he asked,"How did those men get in, Josiah?"
14153As the train stopped, he said as he got out,"There is no carriage-- you telegraphed, McGregor?"
14153As they faced the snow, he asked,"How tall are you, Leila?"
14153As they walked down the avenue Grace said,"What are you doing about Lamb?
14153As they walked homeward, Rivers said,"What do you want to do, John?
14153As they walked over the crackling ice- cover of the snow, he said,"Why do you want to sled, Leila?
14153As they were leaving, Penhallow said,"But there will be our workmen-- what will become of them?"
14153As to your naughty ending, I do not care who the man was-- why should I?
14153Askew?"
14153At dinner, the Squire asked kindly:"Are you all right, my boy?"
14153At last she rose and excused herself, saying,"Another cup?
14153Been here long?"
14153Between half- hysterical laughter and ready tears, she gasped,"Where did you get that prettiness?"
14153Bugs gone?"
14153But are you satisfied?"
14153But did what interested you interest Leila?"
14153But how the deuce does it concern you?
14153But how-- how?
14153But if the gentleman did not own Josiah''s years of lost labour, some one else did, and who was it?
14153But now-- the rest-- the rest-- what am I to do?"
14153But tell me are you really in earnest about it?"
14153But what about Lamb?"
14153But what could this man know?
14153But what else could he do?
14153But what had been their errand?
14153But what of you?"
14153But what you tell me-- is it very bad?
14153But who could have warned the black?
14153But why not, Cousin Ann?"
14153By the bye, how will the county vote?"
14153By the way, do you ever read the papers?"
14153Ca n''t you believe a fellow?"
14153Can I never get away from it-- never-- never?"
14153Can you keep a secret?"
14153Can you run?"
14153Can you take that fence?"
14153Can you think of any one with malice enough to make him want to bum a house and risk the possibility of murder?"
14153Can you walk to the river?"
14153Can you walk?"
14153Come to look for you-- can you ride?
14153Could he answer all of them and abide too by the silence he meant to preserve until the war was over?
14153Could not you pay for a new roof?"
14153Could she and James live for years afraid to speak of what was going on?
14153Crocker?"
14153Crocker?"
14153Crocker?"
14153Dear Aunt Ann, how can one keep on not talking about politics and things that are next to one''s religion-- and concerning our country-- my country?"
14153Did Leila too consider him a boy?
14153Did he do it?"
14153Did he have dreams of airy freedom?
14153Did he know it or care?
14153Did he really mean to discuss, to criticize her relations to James Penhallow?
14153Did he talk much?"
14153Did n''t he write about him at-- where was it?
14153Did she write you anything about Josiah?"
14153Did the man see you-- I mean, recognize you?"
14153Did they kill any Indians?"
14153Did they show you the horses?"
14153Did you believe him even for a moment?"
14153Did you ever feel that, sir?"
14153Did you ever notice how its leaves differ in shape?"
14153Did you ever think that an honest love may be to a man like a second-- an angelic-- conscience?
14153Did you see what Seward said,''An irrepressible conflict,''and that man Lincoln,''The house divided against itself can not stand''?
14153Did you suppose a middle- aged ostrich could not use her eyes?
14153Did you think, Grey, that to save your life or my own I would permit you to escape with your work?
14153Do n''t these big pines talk to you sometimes, and the wind in the pines-- the winds--?"
14153Do n''t you feel how still it is?
14153Do n''t you know Aunt Ann?"
14153Do n''t you love it?"
14153Do n''t you miss her?"
14153Do n''t you see things before you fall asleep?
14153Do you go to mother''s room--""What for?"
14153Do you hear?
14153Do you know the Cornish rhyme?
14153Do you know why I sent for you?"
14153Do you know-- do you realize what it means to us?"
14153Do you mean to slide down to that brook?"
14153Do you talk to him about it?"
14153Do you think she would send word to some one-- to take you back?
14153Do you think so?"
14153Do you want to read John''s letters?
14153Does he know of this man''s fate?"
14153Does he say that?"
14153Does he think me a child?
14153Does the North suppose we will endure a sectional President?
14153Ever feel that way, Ann?"
14153Ever try it, Squire?"
14153Five cents-- do I hear ten?
14153Good idea-- how do you play it?"
14153Grey?"
14153Grey?"
14153Had Mr. Grey been imprudent?
14153Had he been wise to commit himself to a reversal of his sentence?
14153Had he deserved a fate so sad?
14153Had her aunt''s recent look of ill- health represented nothing but the depressing influence of a year of anxiety?
14153Half- way up the avenue Penhallow said,"Before we go in, a word or two--""What is it, Jim?"
14153Has Mr. Grey gone to bed?"
14153Has the_ Tribune_ come?
14153Have I-- ever kissed a woman?
14153Have you been to- day in the graveyards you call trenches?"
14153Have you heard from John lately?"
14153Have you heard the news?"
14153Have you no adventures?
14153Have you read any of the speeches of a man named Lincoln in Illinois?
14153Have you read his speech?"
14153He asked one evening,"What was the Missouri Compromise?"
14153He had hoped to find an ally in his cousin''s husband, and now what should he do?
14153He had loved her once; did he now?
14153He has quite lost his foreign boyish ways, and do n''t you think he is like my husband?"
14153He heard Blake ask,"Are you at home, Penhallow?"
14153He looks-- Don''t you think he looks worried, aunt?
14153He reads my papers, and how can I stop him?
14153He rose flushed and troubled, and said,"Are you vexed, Leila?"
14153He said,"How long ago was the last sale?
14153He shall not do it-- do you hear me?
14153He turned to his wife,"Any news of Leila, Ann?"
14153He was as cool as a cucumber--""Why are cucumbers cool?"
14153He was bobbin''for eels-- and-- he saw you go by--""Well, what else?"
14153He was here to- day in the utmost distress about you--""About me?"
14153He was more surprised that Mrs. Ann asked,"What did you say, Leila?"
14153He was silent, however, while Grey exclaimed,"Fear, sir-- fear?
14153He was sorry-- but it was too late-- oh, James!--you will not-- oh, you will not--""Will not what, dear?"
14153He will get well, Doctor, I suppose?"
14153Heard the good news?
14153Her aunt said quickly,"But James Penhallow-- he is in Washington?"
14153Her curiosity got the better of her dislike of being praised for what to her was a simple duty, and she added,"Well, what did he say?"
14153Horses all right?"
14153How about the moral, Ann?"
14153How are the people here going to vote?
14153How are they all?"
14153How are you, old fellow?"
14153How could he be of use to her and these dear people to whom he owed so much?
14153How could he sleep without a pillow?
14153How could she amuse them?"
14153How did he end?"
14153How did you come to grief?"
14153How did you get out of the mills, uncle?"
14153How did you happen to die?"
14153How did you know that?"
14153How do you fellows like that?"
14153How does it look to you, or have you thought of what you mean or want to do?
14153How does it strike you, Mark?"
14153How does, or how did, Leila take Mrs. Ann''s teachings?"
14153How far is a man accountable who inherits a family tendency to insanity?
14153How is John?
14153How is he?
14153How is my sister, and your beauty, Leila?"
14153How is that?"
14153How long is it?"
14153How long will it be before you begin to turn out cannon?"
14153How many Indians were there?"
14153How old are you?"
14153How will the Squire vote?"
14153How''s the Colonel?"
14153I can understand his alarm, and how can I reassure him?
14153I do n''t like it any better than you do-- but--"Bill Baynton, the youngest boy, broke in,"Who told the Squire what fellows was in it?"
14153I have no direct evidence of his guilt, and what am I to do?
14153I mean, is he-- are the mills-- likely to fail?"
14153I said this abominable business was to be closed out--""And is it not?"
14153I shook hands with him and said,''Where did you come from?
14153I sometimes wish Josiah was twins and I had one of him.--""What''s that?"
14153I suppose that under Leila''s care and a good out- of- door life he will drop his girl- ways-- but--""But what, James?"
14153I think that''s silly,"said the young philosopher,"do n''t you, John?"
14153I was thinkin''how Pole, the butcher, sold the Squire a horse that''s spavined-- got it sent back-- funny, was n''t it?"
14153I wonder what I did say to Josiah?"
14153I wonder where that little coin is to- day?
14153I''m going to the mills to see my girl-- want you to shave me-- got over my joke; funny, was n''t it?"
14153If he falls in love, what ought he to do or not do?
14153If the man were reclaimed, he, Swallow, would be heard of all through the State; but would that help him before the people in a canvass for the House?
14153If there is to be war, have I no interest?
14153If you do not prefer better society, may I ask to ride with you to- morrow?"
14153If you undertake to offer advice at your tender years, what will you do when you are older?"
14153In a few minutes the man returning said,"Want me with you?
14153Is he not a relation of the handsome Miss Grey we met on the avenue?"
14153Is he well up in mathematics?"
14153Is he well?"
14153Is his pet scamp any better?"
14153Is it possible you know Josiah?"
14153Is it really wise to talk to him?"
14153Is it the mills and-- the men out of work?
14153Is it the mills?"
14153Is it true?
14153Is n''t it Captain Penhallow of the engineers?"
14153Is n''t it dreadful, Leila?"
14153Is n''t it interesting, Uncle John?"
14153Is n''t it odd how one is brought to realize what a small place our world is?
14153Is n''t that Josiah I hear?"
14153Is n''t that like what aunt was before the war?"
14153Is n''t that slave law wicked?
14153Is n''t the rector on the porch?
14153Is n''t this outlook beautiful?
14153Is she"--and he hesitated--"is she herself?"
14153Is that courage?
14153Is the news confirmed?"
14153Is there anything you are afraid of?"
14153Is there evil news?"
14153Isaac Grace,"What about the trout- brook this afternoon?"
14153It rained yesterday-- will it be wet in the woods?"
14153It ran thus:"MY DEAR SIR: Will you not reconsider the offer of the colonelcy of a regiment?
14153It was-- wasn''t it in May?
14153John hesitated before he asked,"Could not I have, sir, a few days with Aunt Ann at the Cape?"
14153John looked the uneasiness he felt, as he said,"Do you think it is safe?"
14153John looked up, hesitated a moment, and said,"What horse, sir?"
14153John said at last,"If I write a cheque for you, can you sign your name to it?"
14153John?"
14153Josiah asked one of the men who had brought about the arrest,"Who is that man?"
14153Josiah said,"Would n''t you just let me have a minute with the Captain?"
14153Josiah stopped her horse and got badly hurt--"Then with quick insight, she added,"What interest have you in our barber, George?
14153Josiah?"
14153Josiah?"
14153Leila called out,"Any letters, Mrs. Crocker?
14153Leila could only say,"Why not, aunt?"
14153Let me think-- what was it scared Josiah?"
14153Like it?
14153Like to have them, Leila?
14153Like to see it?"
14153Listen, sir-- what''s that?"
14153Makes old fellows look younger-- ever notice that?"
14153May I ask of you one thing?
14153May I ask what you propose to do about this present case?"
14153May I ask your name?''
14153May I have another cigar?
14153May I make use of another room?"
14153May I ride Dixy, Uncle Jim?"
14153May I talk to you a little about your husband?"
14153McGregor?"
14153McGregor?"
14153Meanwhile Rivers, walking with McGregor, said,"Did the figure of that doomed wretch haunt you as we talked to John?"
14153Might I ask your name, sir?"
14153Miss Leila having exhausted all the possible explanations, said with sweet simplicity,"Did you ever find out the origin of that name?
14153Morally better, John?"
14153Mr. Rivers?
14153Much surprised, he said,"These attacks-- has he had them before?"
14153Must you go?
14153No, she was unprepared to commit herself for life, for would he too be of the same mind?
14153Not for a moment would he have gone back-- but why had he run away?
14153Not particularly-- why?"
14153Nothing serious?"
14153Now as he walked with his friend to the door, he said,"Does Mrs. Penhallow know of your change of duty?
14153Now he said,"Were all these women, Squire, who had the gift of bewitchment, good?"
14153Now how are you going to find him?
14153Now what would you advise?
14153Now why do you suppose James Penhallow wants to plunge into this chaotic war?"
14153Now, Aunt Ann, what would you have done or said?"
14153Now, be sure, is that the man?
14153Now, can you dine with me?"
14153Now, gentlemen, will you leave at once or in an hour or less?"
14153Now, how can it be managed?"
14153Now, is n''t that real jolly?"
14153Now, she''s kind of gentled-- noticed that?"
14153Now, what have you to say?"
14153Now, who betrayed the man-- who told Grey?"
14153Now, you will, sir, wo n''t you?"
14153Oddly enough she had the thought,"Who will now shave James?"
14153Oh, my!--are you hurt bad?"
14153Once I saw you pat a big pine and say''how are you, old fellow?''
14153One day when I was breakin''a colt, Mr. Woodburn says to me-- I was leanin''against a stump-- how will that colt turn out?
14153One of the maids?
14153Penhallow, groping in the confusion of remote memories, returned,"I seem to recall-- yes-- it was talked of--""But not done?
14153Penhallow?"
14153Penhallow?"
14153Penhallow?"
14153Penhallow?"
14153Pole joined in their merriment, and the carpenter punched the butcher in the ribs for emphasis, as he said,"How''s that, Pole?"
14153Presently she asked,"Why, Uncle Jim, are you suddenly in such haste to go?"
14153Putting aside angry comment, he fell back upon his one constant resource, What would Christ have said to this sinful man?
14153Shall you go to church?"
14153Shall your free black vote?
14153She asked,"How was the Captain wounded?
14153She faltered,"How are you feeling, James-- any better?"
14153She has-- what do you call it--?"
14153She leaned over, laid a hand on his arm and said,"Is not one dear life enough?"
14153She said only,"Why?--I ask-- you-- why indeed?"
14153She said, with a laugh in which there was no mirth,"I presume one of you will, of course, run my sewing- class?"
14153She went upstairs thinking how hard it would be to keep off of the forbidden ground, and after all was her aunt entirely wise?
14153Should he marry?
14153Suppose Leila had been told such a thing, how would she feel, and Aunt Ann?
14153Swallow ventured to connect me or any of my family with this matter?"
14153Swallow, that if a master reclaimed a slave in this county that there would be any trouble in carrying out the law?"
14153Swallow?"
14153That is clear-- is it not?"
14153The Squire much amused asked,"Well, Leila, did you run away?"
14153The Squire shut the door on all outward show of mirth, and said gravely,"Is n''t it pronounced irrelevant, my dear Miss Malaprop?"
14153The aunt cast a look of anxiety at the expressionless face of James Penhallow, as he rose to his feet, saying,"Why was n''t I told?"
14153The captain said,"Where is the surgeon?"
14153The fear-- would he have been afraid?
14153The general, white and grave, said to Haskell,"How has it gone here?"
14153The house is as melancholy as-- I feel as if I were in a mousetrap--""Why mouse- trap, my dear?"
14153The long lost terror returned-- but what could he know?
14153The music ceased, and as they moved on Penhallow asked,"What about Gresham, your friend?"
14153The older man was silent until John asked,"Is it worth while to talk to Aunt Ann about it-- advise against it?"
14153The tearful face looked up,"And you do forgive me?"
14153The young cashier was asked about his sick sister, and then rather surprised as he took the cheque inquired,"How will you have it, ma''am?
14153The young fellow replied smiling,"Do you think Aunt Ann would hurt anybody?
14153Then I said,''Would you not, James?''
14153Then Josiah, of a sudden wisely cautious, said,"You wo n''t tell Mrs. Penhallow, nor no one, about me, what I said?"
14153Then he asked anxiously,"Did Billy get as far as the house?"
14153Then he had talked with Rivers and straightened up, and now did the Squire''s offer imply any pledge on his own part?
14153Then he laughed,"Did you ever get that cane?"
14153Then he remounted, and said to the scared captive,"What have you got to say?"
14153Then he said to the aide,"We have a few minutes-- how are things going?
14153Then he said, in an absent way,"Are we men of the North all cowards like Josiah?
14153Then he took himself to task, reflecting that he should have been more gently kind, and was there not some better mode of approaching this man?
14153Then he ventured,"And Aunt Ann, was she here?"
14153Then she said quickly,"Have you taken any steps in this matter?"
14153Then she said suddenly,"You are pale-- are you in pain?"
14153Then why does any one buy?"
14153Then with renewed strength, she said,"You wo n''t have them go after him?"
14153Then, becoming grave, he asked,"What effect will my proclamation of emancipation have in the South?
14153Then, of course, Uncle Jim gives her more money-- and Peter gets it--""Where is he?"
14153There is firing over beyond the cemetery?"
14153There were, it seemed, others; how many?--what had they done?
14153They was in and out all day-- and he went to shops and carried things away--""What kind of shops?"
14153Things at the mills are in confusion-- what is to be done?
14153Think I''m safe here?
14153This crime or craze will make mischief?"
14153To cut my tale short, after we passed our outlying pickets and I had answered a dozen questions, he said,''Can you see their pickets?''
14153Tom grinned,"Got a handle to your name?"
14153Two army commanders who do n''t swear?
14153Uncle Jim is pleased, and as for war, Mr. Rivers, if that is what you dislike, what chance of war is there?"
14153Want to get in, Colonel?"
14153Was I wrong-- was I foolish, James?"
14153Was Tom McGregor badly hurt?"
14153Was he not a spirit in prison, as St. Peter said?
14153Was it a mere accidental encounter?"
14153Was it better for boys to abuse one another or to settle things by a fight?
14153Was it her fault?
14153Was it hopeless?
14153Was it right for the Jew to pay the tax which sustained this Government?
14153Was n''t it last year?"
14153Was there any one missing me?"
14153Was you wanting a saddle of lamb to- day?
14153We never knew-- is it so bad?"
14153We played tag in the water--"The Squire had at once a divergent interest,"Tag-- tag-- swimming?
14153Well, John has passed in the first half dozen-- he does not yet know just where--""And are you not entirely contented?
14153Well, John, any more?"
14153Well, what else, Leila?"
14153Well, what is it?"
14153Well, what more?"
14153Well, what then?"
14153What about yourself, Grace?"
14153What amuses you?"
14153What are these things which are at need to be rendered to Him?
14153What are you two talking over-- you were laughing?"
14153What day is this?"
14153What did he say?"
14153What did you think of me?"
14153What do I care for the war or-- or anything but to have you as you were?
14153What do you make of him?"
14153What do you mean?"
14153What do you propose?
14153What do you see?"
14153What do you think of it, Squire?"
14153What do you want, my dear?
14153What does a boy want with a bag?
14153What does it matter?"
14153What else does Leila say?"
14153What else is there?
14153What else?
14153What had a girl to do with it?
14153What happened?"
14153What has that got to do with the matter?"
14153What is his name?"
14153What is it now, James?"
14153What is it?
14153What is it?"
14153What is it?"
14153What is it?"
14153What is it?"
14153What is rather satisfactory?
14153What is that boy of yours going to do?"
14153What is the Cornish rhyme?
14153What is the other letter?"
14153What larger tax?
14153What made you start him?
14153What must I pay?"
14153What of Caesar, John?"
14153What of the platform?"
14153What right had he with his beliefs to despair of any human soul?
14153What shall it be?
14153What the deuce made you speak to me?
14153What time is it?
14153What was he doing?
14153What was it?"
14153What was that?"
14153What was the hematite iron- ore his uncle used at the works?"
14153What will Uncle Jim say?"
14153What woman can define that defensive instinct?
14153What would Leila fetch in the marriage market?"
14153What would he do-- must he do-- if he wakened?
14153What would life be worth or how could character be developed without temptation?
14153What would my uncle say?"
14153What would you do?"
14153What would you know?"
14153What''s all this about?"
14153What''s it called watch for if it do n''t watch?"
14153What''s the good?
14153What''s the matter now?"
14153What''s the matter?
14153What''s the use of praying in hell?
14153When after a night of deep sleep Ann woke to find Leila standing by her bed, she rose on an elbow saying,"What time is it?
14153When does he come?"
14153When is your nephew to be buried-- at the mills?"
14153When outside of the room he said,"We must trust Billy, I suppose?"
14153When they sat down beside the Indian graves, to his surprise she suddenly shifted the talk and said,"John, who would you vote for?
14153When was it I was hit?
14153When you marry, be sure to ask,''what are your politics, Jeremiah?''"
14153Where are the other fellows?"
14153Where are those Indian graves?"
14153Where are you bound, Peter?"
14153Where are you staying?"
14153Where did he learn to skate?"
14153Where did you walk-- or did you walk?"
14153Where have you been all these uneasy days?"
14153Where is the man?"
14153Where shall I go?"
14153Where was he?
14153Where will it all end?
14153Where will it end?
14153Where will it end?"
14153Where would the man go?
14153Where you going, Master John?"
14153Who can be sure of that?"
14153Who cares now?"
14153Who could it have been?"
14153Who done it, I wonder?"
14153Who invented that game?
14153Who lives there?"
14153Who set them on me?
14153Who told?
14153Who was the_ lonesome man_?
14153Who were his companions and where were they?
14153Who will bid?"
14153Who would meet him?
14153Who''ll bid?
14153Who''ll buy silly Billy?"
14153Who''s dead now?"
14153Who''s that officer on the big horse?
14153Who?"
14153Why are you here?"
14153Why at a time so solemn as this do you lie to me?
14153Why did I not?
14153Why did he change?"
14153Why did he run away, John?"
14153Why did she say it?"
14153Why did they send_ you_?"
14153Why did you desert?
14153Why do I talk my despair out to a young life like yours?
14153Why do men keep their useless, shabby clothes?"
14153Why do you ask, John?"
14153Why do you ask?"
14153Why do you get up of a winter night to ride miles to see some poor woman who will never pay you a penny?"
14153Why do you speak of your wife?"
14153Why had he talked to her?
14153Why had she not known all this?
14153Why not have no day or night?
14153Why should his aunt and Leila interfere?
14153Why?"
14153Will that do?"
14153With a look of disgust at his condition, as he faced the laughing troopers he said, with his somewhat formal way,"To whom am I indebted?"
14153With abrupt change of expression, she added,"Wounded?
14153Wo n''t you help me?"
14153Wo n''t you pray for me?"
14153Wo n''t you sit down, sir?"
14153Would they ever see him again?
14153You are limping, John-- what''s wrong?
14153You do not like it?"
14153You do suffer?"
14153You go off duty, when?"
14153You have, I suppose?
14153You leave on Monday?"
14153You said eleven, sir?"
14153You said that you would not let the carpenter use him, but why not?
14153You said''once''--well?"
14153You saw his letter?"
14153You saw it first-- where did it begin?"
14153You see, sir?"
14153You set some one on me?
14153You think I was intemperate?"
14153You will be at the hop of course?
14153You will come and shoot with me at Grey Pine in the fall?
14153You will give me the first dance?"
14153You will like to stay here with me, John?"
14153You will not question his mother?"
14153You will stay to dine?"
14153You will watch over her?"
14153You would like to change his name?"
14153You''ll be mighty careful, Master John?"
14153Your aunt reads to you or with you, I believe?"
14153Your old master, Woodburn, is coming to catch you-- he will be here soon-- I know he wo n''t be here for a day or two--""Is that so, Master John?
14153Your son, I suppose?"
14153and for stealing chickens?
14153asked Gibbon,"or their numbers?"
14153cried Sibley,"what do you mean?
14153cried the black in alarm,"anything wrong at the house?"
14153did you?
14153do you want me to apologize?"
14153does he?
14153exclaimed Billy,"did n''t he howl?"
14153express?"
14153he cried,"what is the matter?"
14153he exclaimed,"what''s the worth while of it?"
14153he said as they came in,"what have you done with your young man?"
14153he said,"where did you come from?"
14153he will stop and pat it and say,''How are you?''
14153how wicked of you-- why did you keep so still?"
14153in four days?
14153is that so?
14153is that so?"
14153not really?
14153or as Dr. McGregor would say,''wholesome''?"
14153said Grey, of a sudden reflecting,"two fingers--""Know him?"
14153said Josiah,"and where must I go?
14153said Mrs. Ann,"at his chapel?"
14153said the traveller out of fairyland,"what put that in your head?"
14153she said coldly,"what next, George Grey?"
14153twice?"
14153what am I to do without you?"
14153what?
14153who did you say-- Like Polly, owner withdraws her-- Can''t you speak out?"
14153why did I?"
14153why was not James at home?
14153you hurt, sir?
14153you were there too, sir?"
36306If you ask whether the members of a civil society have a right to resist the civil governors of it by force? 36306 _ Whenever oppression begins, resistance becomes lawful and right._"Who said that?
36306*** But what would be the contest in the case we are supposing?
36306*** Do they require that the powers of the Government should act on the States, and not immediately on individuals?
36306***** What, in the meantime, is the responsibility and true position of the Executive?
3630611, says:"As to the third point, who is a King within this act?
36306A failure in what?
36306A failure?
36306A war carried on for what?
36306After some consultation with Judge Shipman--_ Judge Nelson_ inquired: Is the opinion expressed by the Foreman that of the other Jurymen?
36306Again, I say, the act of the people is entitled to more weight in an inquiry,"what is the Government?"
36306Against whom is the war?
36306Although he saw this was a pilot boat, and not likely, with good intent, to be out so far at sea, what was this honest sailor encouraged by?
36306And could they not have been detained there?
36306And do we suppose such a thing practicable?
36306And do you reflect that, with all these things, the religion of England to- day is the same as it was then?
36306And how does his crime commence?
36306And how?
36306And is it not so?
36306And the other is, whether this indictment is supported as under a commission from any_ person_ whatever?
36306And then the question occurs-- Had Congress any authority to pass such a law?
36306And what earthly motive can be conceived for making the distinction which is attempted to be made between these men and those?
36306And where do I find this?
36306And why did we purchase it?
36306And why is this so?
36306And why not?
36306And, if so fifty years hence, would it continue twice or thrice fifty years?
36306Are the Confederate States, in this instance, competent to maintain the relations of war and of peace?
36306Are these men pirates?
36306Are they pirates and robbers?
36306Are they?
36306Are we fighting simply to regain the property of the Federal Government of which we have been despoiled in the Southern States?
36306Are we fighting to compel the seceded States to remain in the Union against their will?
36306Are we fighting to subjugate the South in the sense in which an emperor would make war upon a rebellious province?
36306Because, what is to be the end of it?
36306Besides, who shall judge them?
36306Besides, who shall judge them?
36306Brady:_ Perhaps you can state, Mr. Smith, where they were when arrested under that warrant?
36306Brady:_ They were in the Marshal''s office when arrested?
36306Brady:_ Who reported this?
36306Brady_: Tell me what question of fact was there left to the Jury?
36306Brady_: That an American citizen can not take a commission from a foreign Government without being a pirate?
36306Brady_: We have said nothing about that?
36306But he was encouraged by what?
36306But how do these men come in?
36306But is one as right as the other?
36306But of what importance is it what any man thinks about it?
36306But there is a_ power_ to do it, is there not?
36306But there is another test of piracy, gentlemen, and it is this-- Is the privateer a universal enemy?
36306But what appellation will they give to a war which arises in a Republic torn by two factions, or in a Monarchy, between two competitors for the crown?
36306But what degree of madness would ever drive the Federal Government to such an extremity?
36306But what do the prisoners prove further?
36306But what say my learned friends opposed?
36306But what was the fate of the"Virginia resolutions"?
36306But when asked, Why do you do it?
36306But who shall reconstruct the fabric of demolished Government?
36306But why is he so deemed?
36306But, do my learned friends say that they equally come to the test of power as establishing the right?
36306But, gentlemen, what is the object of this prosecution?
36306But, suppose I concede that it has: what said the Republican party in reference to that Court?
36306But, when the appeal was sent for concurrence to New York, South Carolina, Georgia, Massachusetts, and the New England States, what was the result?
36306By rebellion?
36306By secession?
36306Can a Government be said to be free where those do not exist?
36306Can any one say that it was not as easy to have landed these men at Fortress Monroe, or at Hampton, as to transfer them to the Harriet Lane?
36306Can anything be more pointed or more direct on the question?
36306Can she get before the Courts for redress against such an infringement of the Constitution by the President?
36306Can the united States desire revenge on these men?
36306Can they refuse?
36306Can you expect, by a system like this, to mould the human mind as you would mould potter''s clay?
36306Can you forget the bloody assizes of Jeffreys, when hundreds were carried to the block and thousands were sent into exile to all parts of the world?
36306Can you think otherwise?
36306Could the commander of the vessel supersede that Act of Congress, and say he would take the prisoner into the port of New York, or any other port?
36306Could they have been detained there for trial?
36306Could they not have captured her?
36306Despotism?
36306Did either of them ever declare its independence, or ever engage in a war, by itself and of itself, against England, to accomplish its independence?
36306Did our fathers say that, because they had not a majority in the English Parliament, they had a right to rebel?
36306Did the States of the West have a majority?
36306Did the commercial interest have a majority?
36306Did the counsel for the Government desire to hurry them to trial unprepared for the purpose of striking terror to those on the ocean?
36306Did the defendants comply with these terms?
36306Did the grain interest have a majority?
36306Did the tariff interest have a majority?
36306Did they destroy, alter or erase any evidence, or offer to do so?
36306Did they evince the least desire to have any other than the full facts appear with regard to all their acts?
36306Did they not encounter a British vessel upon the high seas?
36306Did you owe allegiance to the United States of America?
36306Do I mention this in complaint?
36306Do the prisoners come within the meaning of this definition?
36306Do they not?
36306Do they require that, in the establishment of the Constitution, the States should be regarded as distinct and independent sovereigns?
36306Do we?
36306Do you believe it to be within the compass of a possibility to compel them to remain in the Union, as States, if they do not wish it?
36306Do you think that France or England has any feeling of friendship towards this country as a nation?
36306Does California gold represent itself by a majority?
36306Does history not tell us how utterly vain and futile such an attempt is?
36306Does truth only consort with one side of the line, and falsehood with the other?
36306Evarts:_ As to military forts receiving prisoners at all times?
36306Evarts:_ It is not in evidence; and how can counsel open to the Jury upon a commission which is not in evidence?
36306Evarts_: Do you admit that all shipped for the purpose?
36306Examined by District Attorney Smith:_ Q._ Where were you born?
36306Had the Government of the Confederate States a right to issue letters of marque; or, in other words, to declare and wage war?
36306Has New England ever repudiated them?
36306Has any Act been introduced into Congress to abolish it?
36306Has he not a nation?
36306Has the Supreme Court of the United States, under such circumstances, any way of redressing this wrong?
36306Has the measure had a vote?
36306Have not the Courts of the United States sanctioned that proceeding?
36306Have these ideas been just put forward for the first time?
36306Have they incurred the penalty of death?
36306Have you formed or expressed any opinion upon their guilt or innocence?
36306He decides the question, and what more have we then?
36306His is the law of might--"For why?
36306How did that act become necessary in the legislation of England, if the previous law had already provided for the same thing?
36306How is it in view of the doctrine of_ hostis humani generis_?
36306How is she to get there?
36306How long would such a Government last?
36306How speedy is it?
36306How?
36306I ask you, what course were they to adopt?
36306I ask, first, did you make a memorandum at the time?
36306I ask, what are those principles?
36306I would inquire whether the note was from the Jury?"
36306If it must either submit to him or perish, who can doubt but it may, and even ought to prefer the former alternative?
36306If not, does it not follow, as a necessary consequence, that the"Savannah"was not engaged in piratical business?
36306If required to execute justice upon three or four, you are bound to execute it on tens of millions?
36306If this great_ Western Sun_ be struck out of the firmament, at what other fountain shall the lamp of liberty hereafter be lighted?
36306If we fail, who shall venture the repetition?
36306In growth?
36306In the first place, did we ever become_ thirteen_ nations?
36306In the first place, where are your eight millions?
36306In the relation of partnership between two individuals, does not the same state of things exist?
36306In this case Judge Livingston says:"Was the General Arismendi a piratical cruiser?
36306Is he a universal plunderer?
36306Is his hand against every man?
36306Is it a conscientious feeling and opinion against the penalty of capital punishment?
36306Is it because the President''s proclamation has pronounced these men pirates?
36306Is it blazoned, before he starts on his wicked career, in the full light of the sun, or is it hatched in secret?
36306Is it for a light and a trifling cause that they have thus separated from you?
36306Is it not a succession of deeds of cruelty, of rapine, of pillage, of wanton destruction?
36306Is it not absurd?
36306Is it not one of utter disregard to the laws of God and man, and to those of humanity?
36306Is it not plain that the law meant piracy or robbery, or any"act of hostility"_ ejusdem generis_, that is,_ animo furandi_?
36306Is it to depend either upon the purpose of the Government in waging the war, or upon its success in that purpose?
36306Is it to effect the abolition of slavery all over the territory of the United States?
36306Is it to overthrow this Government and to dismember its territory?
36306Is not that clearly expressed, and easy to understand?
36306Is success necessary?
36306Is that so?
36306Is that the theory?
36306Is that your signature?
36306Is the State of New York, under a condition of things of that kind, to submit to the closing of her commerce, to her ruin and destruction?
36306Is their punishment sought for the good of the community?
36306Is there any judicial interpretation to that effect?
36306Is there any relation on earth that has a higher sanction than marriage?
36306Is there any statute of the United States anywhere that has abolished it?
36306Is there any trial by Jury under such circumstances?
36306Is there no limitation to that grant?
36306Is there no possibility that, in the course of the proceedings between the Federal and State Governments, you may be wrong?
36306Is this a falsehood?
36306Is this a mere form-- a farce?
36306Is this a mockery?
36306It is true, General Miranda''s attempt is daring, and, if you will,''_ audacious_,''but wherefore is it novel and dangerous?
36306It is, whether the statutory law of the United States has or has not been violated?
36306Larocque_: And then can they not try it where it was committed?
36306Larocque_: But suppose it depends upon the place where the crime was committed, whether in New York or Ohio, whether on land or at sea?
36306Larocque_: Does the counsel cite these cases to show that want of jurisdiction must be pleaded in abatement?
36306Larocque_: I ask what particular point is decided by those cases?
36306Larocque_: Will you look at the last averment in your indictment?
36306May you not be mistaken?
36306Now what is a foreign Prince or a foreign State?
36306Now what was the real difficulty there?
36306Now, I ask, has the prosecution entitled itself to the benefit of any presumption as to intent?
36306Now, are the United States bound to recognize the Confederate States as belligerents?
36306Now, gentlemen, what are the tests sufficient to form such a nationality as will cover these commissions?
36306Now, gentlemen, what is the crime of piracy, as we have all been taught to understand it from our cradle?
36306Now, having such an object, can it be accomplished?
36306Now, how can this be in a large nation-- in a nation of thirty millions, distributed over a zone of the earth?
36306Now, how did we go to work, and what was the result of that Revolution?
36306Now, how much was there of violence in the meditated course, or in the actual aggression?
36306Now, is this a civil war?
36306Now, the doctrine in which these men have been brought up may be political heresy; but, do you crush a heresy with chains?
36306Now, these resolutions grew out of what?
36306Now, they may be wrong, but have you the right to declare them so?
36306Now, under what circumstances was this done?
36306Now, what are the conditions that the law of nations requires?
36306Now, what are the facts before us here which raise this as a question in the case?
36306Now, what are the natural consequences of the acts done by these defendants?
36306Now, what did the Minnesota do?
36306Now, what do they wish?
36306Now, what is an"act of hostility"?
36306Now, what is privateering?
36306Now, what is the duty of other nations in respect to that?
36306Now, what is there that takes away the jurisdiction which belongs to that part of the country and not to this?
36306Now, what was said by Mr. Webster in the case of_ The United States_ v._ Smith_, a case arising under the Act of 1819?
36306Now, whence come the occasions and the grievances urged before you, and of what kind are they?
36306Of what consequence is the designation?
36306On what depends the enjoyment of those rare, inestimable rights?
36306Or what is the limit?
36306Shall their memory be your guiding light, and their honorable purpose that upon which your thoughts will linger?
36306Should we then hear anything about this notion that there was a war raging, and that they were a party engaged in the war?
36306Show me where the King of Naples has acknowledged the kingship of Victor Emanuel?
36306Show me where the sovereigns of Parma and Modena and Tuscany have consented to the establishment of the new government in their territory?
36306Smith_: Are any of them later in date than the commission to the Savannah?
36306Smith_: Do we understand the counsel as assenting to the Court''s interpretation as to the breadth of the admission?
36306Smith_: Is the admission that all were engaged in a common enterprise, and all participators in the fact?
36306So, therefore, if they were indicted for treason, what would become of all this defence?
36306That is the point in the case-- the intent with which the vessel was sent to Hampton Roads?
36306The authority and intent thus alleged for the capture, were they honestly, or only colorably alleged?
36306The question should have been-- for what purpose or object did he send the prisoners in the Minnesota to Hampton Roads?
36306The question then arises, Does a state of war exist?
36306The question, then, is, What was the state of things existing in Charleston, and in the Confederate States, at that time?
36306Then there are five millions to be conquered; and how are they to be conquered?
36306Then what is the"_ head and front of their offending_"?
36306Then what was the taking of the Joseph?
36306They will treat them as enemies, for the purpose of confiscation, and not as enemies, but as traitors and pirates, for the purpose of execution?
36306Under what restrictions has it made it a crime?
36306Was Massachusetts a nation?
36306Was South Carolina a nation?
36306Was it not occupied as an hospital?
36306Was it on board the Savannah, or after you were put on board the Perry?
36306Was it other than a military possession?
36306Was success necessary?
36306Was there any difficulty in taking them to Newport News?
36306Was there the glow of patriotism-- was there the self- sacrificing devotion to work in the cause of an oppressed people, in this?
36306Was this from any kindness or humane spirit?
36306Well, gentlemen, how are our learned friends to escape from this dilemma?
36306Well, gentlemen, is your verdict to depend upon any question of that kind?
36306Well, what could he do?
36306Well, who is to judge of that?
36306Well, why not?
36306Well, you would say, what is that to us?
36306Were any of those men sent before a court, to be tried for their lives?
36306Were there any men of the Perry?
36306Were they a justification of the act, so far as this prosecution is concerned, or not?
36306What answer would that be to a writ of_ habeas corpus_ sued out by either of these men confined on that ship, within that Judicial District?
36306What are the circumstances as testified to by the witnesses for the prosecution?
36306What are the facts--_the conceded facts_?
36306What are the traits and circumstances of that transmission?
36306What are those views and theories?
36306What course, but disobedience to the law, or insurrection, or revolution?
36306What had the prisoners to do with others on the ocean?
36306What is a pirate?
36306What is the meaning of this?
36306What is the use of a pretence unless it is a cover for the act which it is intended to cloak?
36306What is this commission?
36306What is to be its end, gentlemen of the Jury?
36306What is your theory as compared with your practice?
36306What other orb shall emit a ray to glimmer, even, on the darkness of the world?
36306What said our Government to that?
36306What says the great commercial nation of Great Britain?
36306What was said by MR. BUCHANAN on the subject, in his Message of December last?
36306What was the central and distinguishing idea of Government, blazing like another sun on the world, which our fathers established and made honorable?
36306What was the reason of that difference?
36306What was there that as a nation we had more to be proud of, more to be glad for in our history, than our flag?
36306What were we before the Revolution commenced?
36306What would be said if you should take a gentleman who was made prisoner at Fort Hatteras, and try him for treason, and hang him?
36306What would be said in this country, or in Europe,--what would be said anywhere, in the present or in future ages,--as to an act like that?
36306What would be the posture of these prisoners, if, instead of being indicted for piracy, they were indicted for treason?
36306What, now, is the relation of these foreigners to this municipal piracy, under the indictment with which they stand charged?
36306When they acted under this commission, did they believe that it was a legitimate authority, and had they full color for the belief which they held?
36306Where are you from?"
36306Where was the Minnesota, and on what employment and duty, at the time she received these prisoners on board?
36306Wherefore are_ you_ named with honor in the records of history?
36306Who are seeking to subjugate, and who is seeking to protect?
36306Who are they?
36306Who cares for the baptism or the sponsors?
36306Who have enforced it?
36306Who have enjoined its observation, to Grand Juries and to Juries?
36306Who have held it to be constitutional?
36306Who passed the fugitive- slave law?
36306Who shall frame together the skilful architecture which unites national sovereignty with State rights, individual security, and public prosperity?
36306Who shall rear again the well- proportioned columns of constitutional liberty?
36306Who should pronounce on which side the right or the wrong lies?
36306Who would be the parties?
36306Who, then, is the arbiter in such a case?
36306Why did we not stay under that?
36306Why not necessary in the case of the Netherlands when recognized by England?
36306Why was it not necessary in the case of the Colonies when recognized by France?
36306Why were they not indicted for treason?
36306Why, then, have not the prisoners captured by our armies, who are now in Fortress Monroe and Fort Lafayette, been brought to the bar of justice?
36306Why?
36306Will my learned friends say that, in a case like that, you could appeal to the arbitrament of the Supreme Court of the United States?
36306Will you abandon it?
36306Will you rise with me to the dignity and affecting associations that surrounded and auspicated the struggle of our forefathers for this principle?
36306Would the sailor be liable to a conviction for that offence, as a pirate or robber?
36306Would you suppose that was from Jefferson Davis, in the Senate of the United States?
36306You may select the wisest and best men for your Judges, and yet how many defects are there in the administration of justice?
36306You may select the wisest and best men for your legislators, and yet how many defects are apparent in your laws?
36306You may"define piracy and punish it:"does this mean that you can call anything piracy, whether it be so or not?
36306_ A._ Issued the orders?
36306_ A._ Norfolk, Va._ Q._ How far from Fortress Monroe?
36306_ A._ Well, no, sir-- not if I understand the question; that is, the question whether the facts, if proved, constitute the offence of piracy?
36306_ A._ Yes, sir; several times I have anchored there with ships under my command, and the pilots have said,"Will you go up into the Roads?"

22066Aunt Lucy, where_ are_ all these places? 22066 Baltimore!--""''Have you got that one?''
22066Barrel burn them?
22066Beau chevalier qui partez pour la guerre, Qu''allez- vous faire Si loin d''ici? 22066 Blue or grey, which?
22066But the_ morale_ of the army, its efficiency and spirit, may be freely praised and imparted?
22066But what can you do with professors of military institutes and generals with one battle to their credit? 22066 By God, that is a bold plan!--What if McClellan should learn it?"
22066By any chance,_ do_ you want to sell?
22066Ca n''t I go, sir?
22066Can a woman know what love is? 22066 Captain Cleave,"said the general,"were you ever on the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal?"
22066Captain, what is the name of the gunner there? 22066 Charges of what?"
22066Colonel Cleave, did you hear my order? 22066 Colonel Lee, can you crush the Federal right with fifty guns?"
22066Colonel, are we going to have a battle?
22066Companies from Orange County, sir? 22066 Could you spare a poor sick soldier a bite to eat?"
22066Cousin Margaret''s with Richard, is n''t she?
22066Cut to pieces?
22066Damn you, Maury, whom does he like? 22066 De gineral, sah?
22066Dear child, are you very tired?
22066Did I not see how it was last summer that week I spent at Greenwood? 22066 Did n''t I tell you I had a furlough?
22066Did n''t I tell you in my last letter? 22066 Did n''t I tell you, boys?
22066Did n''t he have no weapon at all?
22066Did n''t the damned fools know that Old Jack always keeps five miles ahead of wagon trains and hell fire?
22066Did not you?
22066Did she tell you that?
22066Did you get anything to eat?
22066Did you hear that, fellows? 22066 Did you hear what I said?
22066Did you see Cousin Judith? 22066 Did you talk of the military situation coming along?"
22066Did you?
22066Do I despise myself?
22066Do all John Bulls ride like that? 22066 Do any of you men know the South Branch of the Potomac?"
22066Do n''t you know me, Mocket?
22066Do n''t you smell cloth burning?
22066Do the rebels on the other side show any signs of coming activity? 22066 Do what?
22066Do you ask me to wait?
22066Do you know the stretch of the Potomac north of us?
22066Do you love him so? 22066 Do you mean, general, that you would again divide the army?"
22066Do you mean, sir, that I am to answer his questions?
22066Do you not know,she said clearly,"that I love Richard Cleave?
22066Do you object, sir, to its reaching General Banks?
22066Do you reckon they would really sleep under those roses and tulips, Aunt Lucy? 22066 Do you remember-- do you remember last Christmas when, going to Lauderdale, I passed you on your way to Silver Hill?"
22066Do you think it would be very wrong of you to watch it?
22066Do you think that I do?
22066Do you think, my friend,asked the man in question, and he looked amused,"that you really know all the McNeills, or their party?
22066Do you think, sir, that there will be fighting to- night?
22066Doctor, how''s the girl at Three Oaks?
22066Does General Ewell know when it will occur?
22066Eighteen miles?
22066Er_ cup_ of coffee, you mean, Marse Dick?
22066Evelington Heights? 22066 Even if we do cut off limbs that might have been saved-- hey?
22066Everybody''s cartridge- box full? 22066 F''om de mountains, ain''she, ma''am?
22066Faced which way?
22066Fall in? 22066 Far?
22066Father, do you blame him?
22066Father, you know what I want to do then? 22066 Five of us, sir?"
22066Following McClellan?
22066For the Lord''s sake, where are we going now?
22066From General Kelly at Romney? 22066 Gawd, do I want to get across, or do I want to stay here?
22066General Garnett, what are you doing? 22066 General Jackson is doing wonderful work, is he not, Richard?"
22066General Jackson is over yonder?
22066General Jackson wants to know, sir, if they can cross?
22066General Jackson, what is your opinion?
22066General Jackson? 22066 General Jackson?"
22066General Jackson?
22066General Jackson?
22066General Lee''s headquarters?
22066General Lee, wo n''t you go away? 22066 General Longstreet or General A. P. Hill has joined with their centre, I suppose, general?
22066General Loring complains again?
22066General Magruder, sor, ca n''t I make him trot before me face like any other water- spaniel? 22066 Gentlemen, as you came by did you notice the condition of the ornamental fence about the yard?"
22066Get across? 22066 Gineral Jackson?
22066Go where? 22066 Got any water?
22066Grey, are n''t you? 22066 Has Jackson joined?"
22066Has Marse Robert come? 22066 Has Richmond fallen?"
22066Has a courier passed, going to Williamsport?
22066Has a courier passed, going to Williamsport?
22066Has any one any idea of the time?
22066Has he not reason to?
22066Has the former courier been sent to Richmond?
22066Have n''t you had enough for to- night? 22066 Have ye been talkin''about Billy all this time?"
22066Have you anything at all that we could eat? 22066 Have you come from General Ewell?"
22066Have you ever thought, doctor, how fearfully dramatic is this world?
22066Have you got any quinine?
22066Have you had anything to eat, Will?
22066Have you heard from him?
22066Have you pickets out?
22066Have you seen Dick Taylor''s beauties-- his Creoles and Tigers and Harry Hayes, 7th Louisiana? 22066 Have you seen Edward?"
22066Have you seen General Jackson?
22066Have you the countersign?
22066He is n''t badly hurt?
22066He should not have done so?
22066He understands that he is to be captured?
22066He was n''t inquisitive? 22066 He will be free, you mean?"
22066He wo n''t pursue to- night? 22066 He''ll whistle again, will he?"
22066How about Chapultepec?
22066How are you, Richard?
22066How can we but like them? 22066 How did you come, Christianna, and when, and why?"
22066How did you feel, Billy, when you got away?
22066How do you know, sir?
22066How far is it to Swift Run Gap? 22066 How is Miriam?"
22066How is he?
22066How is she?
22066How long were they going to stay?
22066How many have you?
22066How many?
22066How shall I know,she said,"if you are living?
22066How?
22066I am not your prisoner?
22066I am not, then, sir, to relinquish the command to General Branch?
22066I do n''t suppose you''ve got a drop of spirits handy?
22066I do n''t think he''s really spoiled; not, that is, by Richard.--When did you come to town, Major Stafford?
22066I have a curious feeling about that man,said Miss Lucy,"and yet it is the rarest thing that I distrust anybody!--What is it, Molly?"
22066I hope that you are not badly hurt, general?
22066I trust in God that''s not true!--It''s Richard Cleave, there, is n''t it?
22066I was at Malvern Hill, and I ai n''t never going there again-- I ai n''t never going there again-- I ai n''t never.... Who''s that singing? 22066 I wonder who first thought of so blessed an institution as a mother?
22066I''ve got some cold potatoes, and some scraps of bread crust I was saving for the chickens--"Then wo n''t you take both to the four men out there? 22066 I?
22066I? 22066 I?
22066I?
22066I?
22066If I ride over at five may I see you?
22066If it had to come,said Tom,"why could n''t it ha''come when I was younger?
22066If there should be war,asked Allan,"what will they do, all the Virginians in the army-- Lee and Johnston and Stuart, Maury and Thomas and the rest?"
22066If war came,said Allan,"it could n''t be a long war, could it?
22066In the enemy''s country? 22066 In whose brigade is he, and in what regiment?"
22066Is Winchester to be left to Patterson? 22066 Is all the household here?
22066Is he here?--Are they here?
22066Is he?
22066Is it the Red Sea down there? 22066 Is it wise to go on-- if he has forgotten so little as that?"
22066Is n''t Jackson coming, sir? 22066 Is n''t there a greater stir than usual?"
22066Is not mother coming back? 22066 Is that Captain Cleave?
22066Is that Julius in the hall? 22066 Is that all you''ve got?"
22066Is that so? 22066 Is that the exact distance?"
22066Is that you, Richard?
22066Is this the fastest this boat can travel? 22066 It could not be McClellan in force?"
22066It is a question between your veracity and his?
22066It is the case, is it not?
22066It''s Allan Gold from Thunder Run, is n''t it? 22066 Jest two of you?
22066Judith, was it so hard to forgive-- that tournament? 22066 Judith... Am I mad?"
22066Just like our bridge-- told you''twas-- Ain''t it like, Billy Maydew?
22066Keeping Fremont back?
22066Kernstown did n''t shake it?
22066Kin I go?
22066Knight- errant and Saracen in one? 22066 Lawd, marster, enny news?
22066Let Easter''s Jim take them right away, in time for the evening train.--Have you seen Miss Unity?
22066Ma''am, the major-- Major Pelham-- says kin we please have a few roasting ears?
22066Madam, will you come help? 22066 Major Von Borcke, is it not?
22066Marse Charlie whom, uncle?
22066Marster, is you seen Marse Charlie?
22066Maury Stafford!--What has he to do with it?
22066Maury Stafford?
22066May I ask if Miss Cary is at Greenwood?
22066May I ask, sir, when this junction is to occur?
22066McNeill, sir? 22066 Mine died when I was a little boy.--Well, what do you think of affairs in general?"
22066Miriam Cleave? 22066 Miss Cary?
22066Miss Lucy, chile, when you done sont de curtains ter Richmon'', how is you gwine surmantle de windows?
22066Miss Unity, when you done sont dat kiver ter Richmon'', what you gwine investigate dat piano wif?
22066Molly, is n''t it as though the earth were dying? 22066 Mr. Cleave, is it not?
22066Mr. Green,said Allan,"how much of all this trouble do you suppose is really about the negro?
22066My cousins were well?
22066NON TI SCORDAR DI ME?
22066Nine hours-- ninety hours-- ninety minutes?
22066No chloroform?
22066Non ti scordar di me?
22066Non ti scordar di me?
22066Non ti scordar di me?
22066Non ti scordar di me?
22066Non ti scordar di me?-- Non ti scordar di me?
22066Not a sound-- D''ye reckon they''re ghosts, sir?
22066Nothing broken!--How long? 22066 Now if I tell you in three words how it was and what we did, will you let me go?
22066Now, general, when can you be here?
22066Now, what''s your news, Lucy? 22066 O Gawd, ai n''t war glorious?"
22066Oh, I?
22066Oh, good God, why do n''t we move? 22066 Oh, is n''t there a dreadful hush?
22066Old Jack?
22066One moment-- Richard, are you quite, quite sure that she likes Maury Stafford so well?
22066Praying?
22066Reckon they use red- hot muskets in hell? 22066 Resigning their commissions?"
22066Reynolds? 22066 Richard-- Richard was not killed?"
22066Richard-- what did Richard say?
22066Rockfish Gap? 22066 Say, boys, where in the Lord''s name air you going?
22066Scout?
22066Shall you remain with the staff?
22066She loves you-- She is going to marry you?
22066Sleep? 22066 Staff?
22066Sthop firing, is it?
22066Stop talking, honey, and do n''t have so many fancies, and do n''t read so much poetry!--Who is it coming up the drive?
22066Suppose we canter on? 22066 Tell you?
22066Ten of the Black Horse!--where are the rest of them, I wonder? 22066 Thank you, general-- if I might have a mouthful of coffee?
22066Thar ai n''t any danger now of stray bullets, I reckon? 22066 That is General Lee?"
22066That is all, sir?
22066That is, after you pass through Williamsport?
22066That so? 22066 That you, Richard Cleave?
22066That''s a headquarters!--What if Jackson were there? 22066 That''s the beautiful one, is n''t it?"
22066The 65th? 22066 The army is there?"
22066The general says have you brought off every inch of the captured guns?
22066The latest?
22066The-- Virginia is with you, sir?
22066Their fire is slackening.--Don''t reckon they''re tired of it, sir? 22066 Then shall I return?"
22066Then you are Colonel Fauquier Cary? 22066 Then, general, you will undertake the reduction of Harper''s Ferry?"
22066There was enmity between you?
22066There will be another battle?
22066There will be no fighting in the morning?
22066Think only of the general? 22066 This stone mill is upon your land?"
22066This the officer? 22066 Threatening Washington?"
22066Time to take in, children-- didn''t you hear the bell? 22066 To see Judith?"
22066Unity,she said,"would you send the great coffee urn to Richmond for the Gunboat Fair, or would you send lace?"
22066Very good, Gilmer, I will so report to the officer in charge of the flag of truce.--Well, what is it, man? 22066 Walk beside you into your lines, you mean?"
22066Was a courier before them?
22066Was he riding fast?
22066We''ve got an axe?
22066Well, Allan?
22066Well, I must be travelling, too--"Rations getting pretty low, are n''t they? 22066 Well, Major Douglas?"
22066Well, ca n''t you?
22066Well, sir, what is the meaning of this? 22066 Well, sir?"
22066Well, sir?
22066Well, thir, well, thir? 22066 Well, we do try you, do we not?--on every possible occasion!--Fifth North Carolina?
22066Well, what is it, Richard Cleave?
22066Well, who are you?
22066Well?
22066Well?
22066Were any of you boys at Malvern Hill?
22066Were you,asked Cleave,"were you in Albemarle this autumn?"
22066Whar did you get the stuff?
22066What are you doing here, sir, blaspheming and retreating? 22066 What are you doing here, thir?
22066What are you doing in there? 22066 What are you doing up there, sir?"
22066What are you going to do with us now you''ve got us? 22066 What are you malingerers doing here, anyhow?
22066What are you reading?
22066What d''ye reckon it means, sir?
22066What day?
22066What did Fauquier Cary say?
22066What did she have on? 22066 What did she say?--You do n''t mind, Judith?"
22066What did you thwim for? 22066 What do you hear from Richard Cleave?"
22066What do you think of it, general?
22066What do you think of it?
22066What does it look like, Edward-- the Merrimac?
22066What for?
22066What happened at dawn?
22066What haste to Williamsport?
22066What have you got that stick tied to your gun for? 22066 What in hell does it matter, anyway?"
22066What in hell is that young cockerel crowing about? 22066 What information?"
22066What is it, Maydew?
22066What is it, brother?
22066What is it?
22066What is the use of looking? 22066 What sentiments?
22066What troops are these?
22066What was that you said, Maydew?
22066What would I have done? 22066 What would you advise, sir?"
22066What would you paint?
22066What''re they doing? 22066 What''s a''cisive battle, honey?
22066What''s all this? 22066 What''s his name?
22066What''s that stony old road?
22066What''s that sugar loaf over there?
22066What''s that? 22066 What''s that?
22066What''s that? 22066 What''s that?"
22066What''s that?
22066What''s that?
22066What''s the house they''ve burned over there?
22066What''s the matter here? 22066 What''s the matter here?
22066What''s the matter this time?
22066What''s the use of ducking, Steve Dagg? 22066 What''s there about this place anyhow?
22066What''s this county? 22066 What''s this damned stuff I hear about Richard Cleave and a court- martial?
22066What''s this-- what''s this, boys? 22066 What''s your name?"
22066What,asked Edward between two chords,"what do you hear from the Valley?"
22066What,asked Marchmont,"is this long black patch in the midst of the shading?"
22066What?
22066When will you come again?
22066When''s this hell- fired fightin''goin''to begin? 22066 Where are the guns?
22066Where are we going? 22066 Where are you going, Cleave?"
22066Where are your guns, colonel?
22066Where in hell are we going, Cleave? 22066 Where is General Hill?
22066Where is General Jackson?
22066Where is General Jackson?
22066Where is Lieutenant Breckinridge, Tullius?
22066Where is McDowell?
22066Where is Miss Molly?
22066Where is he now?
22066Where is he, sir?--Out there?
22066Where is he?
22066Where is his room?
22066Where was I? 22066 Where''re you fellows going?"
22066Where''s he going, then?
22066Where''s headquarters?
22066Where? 22066 Whether, when you move, you move north or west or south or east, is, I suppose, sir, purely a matter of conjecture?"
22066Which of you was it?
22066Who are those? 22066 Who dat comin''up de drive?
22066Who did that? 22066 Who is it, and what is your business?"
22066Who is it?
22066Who is preaching at headquarters to- day?
22066Who is the volunteer, Gold?
22066Who knows that I was innocent? 22066 Who leads?"
22066Who says that magic''s dead? 22066 Who sent you?"
22066Who spoke?
22066Who would ever have thought,said the chaplain,"that Dante took an idea from Virginia in the middle of the nineteenth century?
22066Who''s Verdi?
22066Who''s that jowering back there? 22066 Who''s there?"
22066Why are we going to Port Republic?
22066Why are you not with your regiment, sir?
22066Why ca n''t we swim the damned old trough? 22066 Why did n''t you call before?
22066Why do n''t we all sing, boys? 22066 Why do you look so startled?"
22066Why not question him again?
22066Why not say the James?
22066Why not sleep?... 22066 Why should she not like him?
22066Why should you make it worse? 22066 Why the deuce should he look at me in that damned reproachful fashion?"
22066Will I wish you well, Richard? 22066 Will I?
22066Will you cross at Harper''s Ferry?
22066Will you cross by the ferry?
22066Will you give me the storeroom key? 22066 Will you listen,"said Stafford,"to the wind in the pines?
22066Will you report at headquarters?
22066Wo n''t you get down and set a little, doctor?
22066Wo n''t you let me go, ma''am? 22066 Would we?"
22066Would you like to see it? 22066 Would you mind holding my baby?
22066Yes, Dilsey?
22066Yes, I am there--"Well, if by ill luck my boy is wounded and brought there, you''ll look out for him, eh? 22066 Yes, and the clown-- and the ring master--""_ What d''ye think of our ring master?_""Who d''ye mean?
22066Yes, and the clown-- and the ring master--"_ What d''ye think of our ring master?_"Who d''ye mean? 22066 Yes, general; wonderful, are they not?
22066Yes, is it not fine? 22066 Yes, there is room-- we will make room-- and it will not be bad for Miriam to have some one.... Are we not all looking for that army?
22066Yes-- long ago, is it not? 22066 You all think yo''going to a Sunday- school picnic, do n''t you?
22066You and he are cousins, are n''t you?
22066You are Allan Gold?
22066You are from this region, captain?
22066You are going back to Botetourt?
22066You are going on to the 65th?
22066You believe,said Jackson,"that he swore falsely?"
22066You consider him a great general?
22066You do not belong to this regiment.--A scout? 22066 You do not like the idea?"
22066You expected that, did you not? 22066 You have an occasional fight over there?"
22066You have been about the dam as a boy?
22066You have been in Richmond?
22066You have been looking for Christianna? 22066 You have n''t got a drop of brandy-- eh?"
22066You have no doubt of the final victory?
22066You have noticed that? 22066 You have seen her-- You are happy?"
22066You have seen him?
22066You know one another by name only, I believe, gentlemen?
22066You know this officer, Miller?
22066You rank here, General Winder?
22066You ride up the valley to- night?
22066You think it a Moscow march? 22066 You think it was a spell, then, sir?"
22066You think so? 22066 You think that we complain too much?"
22066You were never here before?
22066You were not in the battle here? 22066 You wish to go on to Frederick this afternoon?"
22066You would n''t grieve if I did, would you? 22066 Your father and Fauquier--?"
22066Your final order, general?
22066Your own judgment has not changed?
22066_ Morale_ good?
22066_ Old Joe Hooker, wo n''t you come out of the Wilderness?_he sang.
22066_ Philip Deaderick._ When did he volunteer?
22066''Colonel, get us across, somehow, wo n''t you?
22066''Could he repeat it?''
22066''Good road to Waynesboro?''
22066''Had not the dead courier a reputation for reliability, for accuracy?''
22066''I understand,''says he,''that going west by north you would strike a road that leads you south again?''
22066''Miss Unity, what fer you gwine ter send all dem critturs away lak dat?
22066''N''I asks her how come she never hear ob Gineral Stonewall Jackson?
22066''N''ain''she never hear ob Gineral Lee?
22066''Prince John''kept McClellan beautifully amused.--General Jackson?
22066''Quit?''
22066''T would be after being just a little left- over of directions?"
22066''Washington Artillery?''
22066''What do you wish?''
22066''Where then?''
22066''Why do n''t you make Jeames cut the wood?''
22066''Why does Colonel Grigsby come to me to learn how to deal with mutineers?
22066(''Oh, do we?'')
22066(''What in hell do I care if they air?'')
22066--"And the Rio Grande?"
22066--"Can''t you just_ see_ Manassas Junction and Stuart''s and Trimble''s fellows gorging themselves?
22066--"Didn''t we hear something about a fight in Texas?"
22066--"How are you, Reynolds?"
22066--"How did you know''twas his?"
22066--"How do you know him?"
22066--"If we had a gun-- Speak of the angels!--Unlimber right here, lieutenant!--Got plenty of canister?
22066--"It could n''t be-- it could n''t be Acquia Creek, boys?"
22066--"Say, captain, is that the river Dan?"
22066--"Stonewall Jackson?
22066--"Then why do n''t we attack?"
22066--"What''re them Pennsylvanians down there doing?
22066--"Will you go to hell and stop talking as you go?"
22066--65th Virginia, Stonewall Brigade?
22066--Isn''t that a Sunday morning breakfast worth waiting for?
22066--What does''Oz Etaliahn''mean?
22066--What in hell should we quit for?"
22066--Yes, yes, my friend!--Miss Cary, may I present my Chief of Staff, Major the Baron Heros von Borcke?
220665?"
22066A brigade known to be occupying the town?
22066A man said,''What''s that?
22066A whistle shrieked down the line, shrieked with enormous vigour--"What''s that?
22066About two weeks ago--""Oh, Edward, were you very homesick?"
22066After Manassas, when I went to look for Hugh?
22066After all, most of the officers were satisfactory; why let them down with a jolt?
22066Ai n''t Allan Gold going?"
22066Ai n''t life worth while?
22066Ai n''t they pretty?"
22066Ai n''t you folks most beat yet?"
22066Ain''dey gwine ter do hit ergain?
22066Ain''dey gwine ter do hit ergain?"
22066Air we the first train?
22066Air ye going against them?
22066All that crowd down there may set to and cross to- night--""How many bridges?"
22066All the earth beginnin''to tremble under marchin''feet and everybody askin'',''Where''s the army to- day?''
22066All was in readiness for the order when it should come, and who, in the meantime, wanted to do so prosaic a thing as rest?
22066Always liked that whole family-- Isn''t he a cousin of----?
22066Am I sure?
22066Am I to cross into the Valley-- by God, it''s lovely!--and reinforce Jackson?
22066Am I to strengthen Johnston at Richmond?
22066Ames, get ready to take these telegrams--""And thin he said,''May I have this, too, Father?''
22066An assault upon their centre?
22066An''I ain''er doubtin''dat Gineral Wade Hampton is a mighty fine man--''deed I knows he is-- but ain''she never heard ob Gineral Johnston?
22066An''he went.--He''s about your make an''he has light hair an''eyes an''he wuz wearing butternut--""What is his last name, ma''am?"
22066An''she says,''How''re you goin''to get thar, Christianna-- less''n you walk?''
22066An''so--""And you could n''t find her?"
22066An''what hour she say, gineral, will suit you bes''?"
22066An''yo''sh''ut tohn dat- er- way?
22066And Billy-- Billy with a gun now instead of the spear the blacksmith had made him?
22066And Edward?"
22066And Warwick?"
22066And can you give me any reason why you should not mount guard for a month?"
22066And did you hear?
22066And each time I asked her,''Why do n''t you come to bed, Judith?''
22066And now you''re bringing it all up again--""''_ Gentleman._''--Who are you to judge of a gentleman?"
22066And presently,"Is it pneumonia?"
22066And says he,''I may take this map to General Jackson?''
22066And stock?
22066And the frontal attack?"
22066And walking!--Where is Prince John-- and Jeames?"
22066And was father going-- and were Johnny and Sam and Dave?
22066And when Mr. Hodge said''the Stonewall Brigade suffered heavily''he looked_ glad_--""Who looked glad?"
22066And yet I ask you to- night-- Judith--""You ask me what?"
22066And you?"
22066Another''s coming right behind-- why do n''t they wait for it?
22066Are n''t there exceptions to all rules?"
22066Are n''t they looking for Jackson?"
22066Are n''t you glad we did n''t stay behind the cowshed?"
22066Are we going to lie here in these swamps and fight mosquitoes all day?
22066Are you not ashamed?"
22066Are you sure that you can walk?"
22066Are you the foot cavalry?''
22066Are you, too, from the university?"
22066Arrived at-- what do you call it?
22066Artillery still across the swamp-- What''s that cheering toward the river?"
22066As Milton says,''There''s method in his madness''--Shakespeare, was it, Morris?
22066As far as the big sawmill?
22066At last,"Where did you get that canteen?"
22066Beg your pardon, general--?
22066Better drive the cows up into the mountains and hide the horses?
22066Better use it here?"
22066Billy''s sense of discipline brought him to a stop, but did not keep him from saying,"What for?"
22066Boyd!--would you just give a hand?
22066Briery Creek-- No, Briony Creek-- hey, Deaderick?"
22066But how did your coat get on this side of the river?"
22066But with Richard Cleave it was not serious?"
22066But would he retreat down the Peninsula by the way he had come, or would he strike across and down the James to his gunboats by Westover?
22066But you-- you do n''t believe it?--""Believe it?"
22066But, I suppose, before these coloured leaves all fall you will be moving?"
22066But--""You are, I believe, the officer whom General Loring sent me once before?"
22066By whom were they to be resumed or taken back?
22066Ca n''t I go, lieutenant?"
22066Ca n''t be the Potomac, can it?
22066Ca n''t give you much,--mysterious inward complaint, myself,--can''t eat anything but frumenty.--Well, sir, how is General Jackson?"
22066Ca n''t he go, too, lieutenant?"
22066Call one of the boys, Julius, and have them all taken down.--Well, what is it?"
22066Can you crush the Federal right with fifty guns?"
22066Can you make a bridge there?"
22066Captain, honey, do n''t you want us to_ treble- quick_ it?"
22066Car''line says you told her not to make sugar cakes for Sunday?"
22066Cavalry?
22066Cherokee or Choctaw, which?
22066Colonel Fauquier Cary?
22066Could it be--_could it be from Manassas_?
22066Could the bird''s nest still be there?
22066Cousin William followed,"For God''s sake, Cary, what has happened?"
22066Cross!--yes, but how?
22066D''ye know what I believe?
22066D''ye remember''Woodstock''and Cromwell in it?
22066Did it run the blockade?"
22066Did n''t I say that the old Manassas Gap ai n''t half so black as she''s painted?
22066Did n''t criticise, or draw you on to talk-- didn''t ask about my troops and my movements?"
22066Did n''t the tower break down?
22066Did n''t we have a good time there''fore and after Bath and Romney?
22066Did n''t we see Ashby on the black stallion draw a line like that thar stick across the Valley with a picket post for every knot?"
22066Did n''t you ever notice, Aunt Lucy, how everybody really belongs in a book?"
22066Did she sing to you?"
22066Did ye hear the firing yesterday?"
22066Did you ask about the shotgun?"
22066Did you come from Richmond?
22066Did you ever hear Ewell swear?
22066Did you notice anything out of the usual?"
22066Do n''t I know the type of country, too?
22066Do n''t it swing off long and steady?
22066Do n''t know what you want to do, do you, Johnny Reb?"
22066Do n''t you know the Yankees are in town?"
22066Do n''t you want me to croon you''Shining River''?"
22066Do n''t you want to lie down?"
22066Do you bear malice for that?"
22066Do you know, Maury, it''s little wonder that Gulliver found the Houyhnhnms so detesting war?
22066Do you not see, do you not see, Judith?"
22066Do you remember how we crashed together at the Stone Bridge?
22066Do you still need reinforcements?
22066Do you think it''s worth while, captain?"
22066Do you think the army''ll come this way?"
22066Do you think, my son, the matter is of importance?
22066Does she know that-- most unfortunately-- it was I who carried that order from General Jackson to General Winder?"
22066Don''you reckon so, marster?"
22066Dundandy?"
22066Early had not yet come up from Union Mills; was it Early?
22066Eddy, is n''t that the serenading fellow who goes on singing till they hang him?
22066Edward is with the Rifles?"
22066Edward spoke from beside the piano,"Has it come, father?"
22066Ef''t warn''t covered with dust you could see the U. S.""Empty, I reckon?"
22066Eh?--What?"
22066Eighteen miles?
22066Farragut may try to run forts and batteries, Chalmette and all--""What else?"
22066Faugh!--What''s your brigade?"
22066Fauquier wishes to get back to Albemarle--""Will you start from Lauderdale?"
22066Find him in the rear?"
22066Fire!--Damn it all, what''s the use?
22066Flowers, butterflies-- large bronze one on your hat.--This our escort?
22066Fontaine, eh?
22066Four hundred troopers between them?
22066From General Loring, are you not?
22066From what people were these powers derived?
22066General Ashby, may I present Major Markham, Captain Bondurant, Captain Schmidt, Lieutenant Colter?
22066General Jackson, too, has an officer here to- day, checking the stores that came from Richmond.--How is it at the hospital?"
22066General Jackson, will you do it?"
22066General Lee and Stonewall Jackson?
22066General, do you remember, in Mexico, the_ Noche Triste_ trees and their great scarlet flowers?
22066General, wo n''t you review us_ that way_?"
22066Gentlemen, wo n''t you tell him that there''s danger?"
22066Get this infernal weight off me, wo n''t you?"
22066Glad to see you, Major-- Major Cleave?
22066Go along, and God bless you!--Their camp''s this side the North Fork-- about a thousand of them.--Guns?
22066Go_ where_?
22066Going back to the Valley?
22066Going to do anything more to- night?
22066Good!--What is this soldier doing here?"
22066Good- bye, you little old Richmond, we ai n''t going to see you this summer!--Feel good?
22066Got any tobacco?"
22066Got anything to mix with the water?"
22066Had the blockhouse fallen down?
22066Had the missing brigade, the watched for, the hoped for, reached Manassas?
22066Had you noticed, father, what exceedingly thin ice you have around this house?"
22066Has General Lee come?"
22066Has any one confidence in him?
22066Has any one love for him?
22066Has any one pride in him?
22066Has this soldier annoyed you, madam?"
22066Have I not watched you?
22066Have n''t got any quinine handy, have you?''
22066Have n''t you any there?"
22066Have n''t you missed us?
22066Have n''t you missed us?
22066Have we got to go eight miles to- day?
22066Have you a nice place to sleep in?"
22066Have you any idea yourself what I''m expected to do at Stanardsville?"
22066Have you ever seen him?"
22066Have you got a light?
22066Have you got anything to eat?"
22066Have you got the mail bag?"
22066Have you heard from Fauquier?"
22066Have you one against him?"
22066Have you seen father?"
22066Have you somewhere to stay to- night?
22066Have you thought of how you fell on them at Front Royal and at Winchester?
22066Have you two good fresh ones?"
22066He does n''t just wind in and out of mountains for the fun of doing it?"
22066He had rather, he said, be scout than lieutenant-- and what was the use in changing, anyhow?
22066He is a favourite, is he not, with General Jackson?"
22066He is n''t there now, doctor?"
22066He likes you.... Have you a furlough?
22066He said that he would rather be captain of the King William Artillery than President of the Confederate States.--Barksdale''s Mississippians?
22066He say, ax you kin he come up to yo''room?"
22066He says he has a collection of maps-- Father Tierney, will you speak to the general?"
22066He wandered off in the darkness, and Cleave heard him speaking to a picket,"Marster, is you seen Marse Charlie?"
22066He was in the affair at Bethel.--What''s this?
22066He was rash, perhaps, but who is there to tell?
22066He was with Loring but transferred.--You went to Romney together?"
22066He will bivouac over there, and to- morrow will see the battle-- Have you ever given much attention, general, to the subject of growth in grace?"
22066He wore a grey Confederate coat All buttoned down before--""Do n''t like it that way?
22066He''s most gotten over getting angry and it becomes him beautifully--_Darling Chloe_--What''re_ you_ coming into it for, Billy Maydew?
22066Hear that whippoorwill?
22066Heintzelman, Kearney, and Reno-- Got''em all?
22066How about coffee?"
22066How about yours over there?"
22066How come they let you march?"
22066How could I?
22066How could it quicken step again?
22066How de house gwine look when marster come home?"
22066How did that happen?"
22066How did you get here?"
22066How do you like war, Miss Miriam?"
22066How is Miss Miriam?"
22066How long can you stay?"
22066How long had he lain here?
22066How long has he been gone?"
22066How long will it last, Richard-- the war?"
22066How long would the war last?
22066How many men has General Ambrose Everett Burnside got, anyhow?"
22066How many of your people are in it?"
22066How many on de oder side, sah?
22066How you gwine feel when you see November on de road, an''de cedar closet bar ez er bone?
22066How''re we going to get by?
22066How''s your health, old lady?
22066How_ dast_ you say that?"
22066I added up figures in the old warehouse-- Don''t you remember Hotspur?
22066I ai n''t a girl, and I do n''t hold with war-- Well?"
22066I did it, and I went off like a baby-- Well, Julius, and how are you?"
22066I do n''t know if''t war Dave this time shot him-- anyhow,''t war not Sergeant Coffin--""Is the infantry deploying?"
22066I got tired of staying on Briony--""Do you know anything about guns?"
22066I hear Pelham''s guns-- You are an Englishman?"
22066I know that you do not like hospitals-- but would you come and look, sir?"
22066I reckon I thought of her mor''n I slept last night.--''N the child?"
22066I reckon we all that stay at home air going to have our fill o''missing!--What have you got in your basket, honey?"
22066I saw you at Gilland''s, did n''t I, yesterday?"
22066I shall have my entire command?"
22066I suppose that you can not say how soon that will be, sir?"
22066I think you will find that representations will be forwarded to the government at Richmond--""Representations of disaffected soldiers?"
22066I trust, sir, that I acted rightly?"
22066I wondered if the bag ought to be smaller-- but he''ll have room for it, I reckon?
22066I would have come to Three Oaks, only--""You are going home to- morrow?"
22066I''ll have to scrub it with brick dust to get your finger marks off--""Wo n''t you please put that gun down, ma''am, and listen to reason?"
22066I''ll move, and I suppose when I get there old Jackson''ll vouchsafe another gleam.--Bob, you damned Ethiopian, where are your wits?
22066I''ll pass you through.--You read Byron?"
22066I''ll see to this fellow.--Now, sir, what have you got to say for yourself?"
22066I''m going to ask him.--Captain, what d''ye reckon we camped ten days in that mud hole for?"
22066I''m not on Thunder Run, am I?"
22066I''spec he come marchin''wif you down de pike f''om dat damn battlefield?
22066I''spec you done seed him?
22066I--""What''s that?"
22066If General Jackson were here--""May I send in search of him, sir?"
22066If I give you fifty guns can you crush the Federal right?"
22066If they attack again and the day should end in defeat--""What have you got there?"
22066In the morning you followed on?"
22066Indiana?
22066Into Maryland?
22066Is Jackson in the town?--and where?
22066Is Jackson over there?
22066Is he here?"
22066Is it about the damned individual at the head of this army?
22066Is it my technical opinion as an artillery officer?
22066Is it so?"
22066Is it something to eat-- or to drink?
22066Is it true that we won the battle yesterday?
22066Is living getting hard on Thunder Run?
22066Is she as beautiful as ever?"
22066Is that his horse behind?
22066Is that the cut, that scratch above the ankle?"
22066Is that the way you turn it?
22066Is that you, Stafford?
22066Is the editor going?"
22066Is there anything else that you want to know?"
22066Is this your brother?"
22066It ai n''t anything catching, is it?"
22066It is a little city--""From the Valley?
22066It means''Cross,''does n''t it?"
22066It''s Stonewall Jackson pursuing us, eh?"
22066It''s enough to make a man wish he was a Johnny Reb-- Hey, what did you say?"
22066It''s ghastlier than ghastly.--You are n''t hurt?"
22066It''s pretty hard on a man, this working over time.--Where''s he lodging?"
22066It''s worse than drink-- Well, Deane?"
22066Ith General Jackthon acroth?
22066Ith Jackthon acwoss?"
22066Jackson came?
22066Jackson certainly came?
22066Johnston?"
22066Judith knew General Lee, but the other?...
22066Judith, you''ll wish me well?"
22066Judith-- What does''Judith''mean?"
22066Just give yourself a lift, wo n''t you?
22066Just keep him there, will you?
22066Just listen to Rockbridge!--Who''ve you got there?"
22066Kernstown!--Heard what the boys at Middletown called Banks?
22066Kin I smoke?...
22066Lawley?"
22066Lawyer and soldier grafted on Piers Ploughman, and the seams not well hidden?
22066Lexington?
22066Louisianians and Virginians, who volunteers?''
22066Magruder''s bearing toward Savage Station, and if Jackson''s across the Chickahominy we might do for Fitz John Porter-- eh?"
22066Major Cleave, do you remember Aesop''s fables?"
22066Major Stafford-- Captain Howard-- Go on singing?
22066May I keep you company for awhile?"
22066May I see it?"
22066May I speak to him?"
22066May I take this one, too?''
22066May we not, sir, may we not make the attack?"
22066Maybe a wagon''ll come along and give you a lift, so''s you can get there in time--""Get where, ma''am?"
22066Maybe he has been gone an hour, maybe more--""And how did he know the countersign?"
22066Milroy?
22066Miriam''s comforter?
22066Nein!_ Wonder if they remember Cross Keys?"
22066Nothing of General Jackson yet?"
22066Now what does that mean?
22066Now what have you there?"
22066Now, how long will that potion hold him?"
22066Now, you men in blue, what command''s that in the woods?
22066Now, you rode across?"
22066O Lord, why do n''t we fight too?
22066Oak?''
22066Of these, a few proposed to strip and have a swim-- who knew when they''d see the old river again?
22066Oh, ai n''t it hot?
22066Oh, ai n''t they lucky dogs?"
22066Oh, an opera house!--In Paris, do you say?
22066Oh, my gunner with Pelham, why did you not come before?"
22066Oh, what is it?"
22066Old Jackson is n''t around, is he?
22066On the Peninsula, were you not?"
22066On the other side was the Valley of Humiliation, was it not?"
22066One of General Jackson''s scouts?--Then do you know, pray, where is General Jackson?
22066One''s love and one''s hate--""Never both?"
22066Only the ladies are there?"
22066Poetic places-- marshes-- with a strong suggestion about them of The Last Man.... Where was I?
22066Pretty tidy place, do n''t you think?"
22066Pretty, are n''t they?
22066Rappahannock?
22066Reckon Old Jack and Marse Robert want a_ second_ battle of Manassas?"
22066Regiment?"
22066Remember he was my roommate at the Point?"
22066Result, I''ve got to hobble in at the end of the parade!--What''s the matter with you?"
22066Reynolds''s taken-- you remember Reynolds?"
22066Richard Cleave, is n''t it?
22066Richard Cleave?
22066Root and branch, I know them, and root and branch they''re damned rebels--""Do you know,"demanded the captain,"this one?
22066S''pose you let me look before I move you?"
22066Seen any rebels crost the river?"
22066Semmes, you go and tell General Jackson all Europe''s here.--Mean you to go?
22066Sha n''t we fire, sir?"
22066Shall I go for the guns?"
22066Shall I go see who they are?"
22066Shall we advance?"
22066Sigel-- Schurz-- Schenck-- Steinwehr?
22066Some moments elapsed before he spoke; then,"You have known Richard Cleave for a long time?"
22066Southward?
22066St. Cuthbert is buried there, too, is he not?"
22066Straggling or deserting?
22066Suppose we rest on the arbour steps and talk?
22066Tell him to wait-- Jim, you black idiot, what have I done with that button?"
22066Tell him, wo n''t you, that it''s damned hard on the horses, and we have n''t much to eat ourselves?
22066That does n''t mean what it did at Manassas-- eh?
22066That is so?"
22066That is true, is n''t it, Richard?"
22066That maddens me at times--""Is it that?
22066That''s Pritchard''s Hill, where all the flags are-- How many men have they got?
22066That''s an ambulance!--Is he in the ambulance?
22066That''s what he says, is n''t it, all the time?
22066The Maryland Line, too, and Trimble and Elzey?
22066The big man you would n''t let us take, he air waving his sabre and swearing--""The infantry?"
22066The first thing I knew-- and I just as innocent as her baby-- she up and turned my own musket against me--""Who locked the door?"
22066The foundations were laid in 1093, I believe?"
22066The general?
22066The general?--Edward?"
22066The grey troops awaiting orders, wondered,"Are n''t we going to cross the river after them?"
22066The guns?"
22066The news?
22066The road to Ashby''s Gap?
22066The scout had been at McDowell?
22066The two hurried away, down the Richmond road, and the despoiled farmer began to think:"Where''d I see him-- Richmond?
22066The water buckets were ready, and there were the willows that the dust had made as sere as autumn,--but where was the stream?
22066The woods down there?"
22066Then where would I buy guitar strings in a land without a port?
22066There is an old crossing near the bridge--""Passable for cavalry, sir?"
22066There were cannon planted by the roadside, but where were the cannoneers?
22066There will still be roses, will there not, Miss Cary?"
22066There''s no object in his going North?"
22066They could not sleep; if war was going to be always as exciting as this, how did soldiers ever sleep?
22066They have seen hard service and they have faced it gallantly--""Are his men insubordinate?"
22066They seized this empty house, and they''ve been picking off our men--""Double canister, point- blank, Allen.--Well, sergeant?"
22066Think it''s''What are the Wild Waves Saying?''"
22066Thought it was just behind us when we crossed the ford-- What''s that off there?"
22066To what command do you belong?"
22066Trampling innocent bystanders that way!--Why in hell did n''t you stay back where you belong?"
22066Valley of Virginia?"
22066Voyez- vous pas que la nuit est profonde, Et que le monde N''est que souci?"
22066W''at Miss Anna gwine say w''en she heah erbout hit?
22066Was he there-- Was Allan Gold there in the cloud?
22066Was it Lieutenant McNeill you''ll be looking after?"
22066Was it difficult getting through Jackson''s lines?"
22066Was it reasonable to suppose that he had marched them a hundred and twenty miles just to march them back a hundred and twenty miles?
22066Was not Christianna coming at all?
22066Was this war?--war, heroic and glorious, with banners, trumpets, and rewarded enterprise?
22066We are winning-- are we not?
22066We have been right good, have n''t we?
22066We might have a little dance, eh?
22066We thought it was awful lovely at first, all spangled with flowers and birds.--Are you married?"
22066We''ll do it, wo n''t we, Aunt Lucy?"
22066We''re going into battle in a minute, and you want to be there, do n''t you?
22066Well, I''ve got to do it, have n''t I?
22066Well, Major Harman?"
22066Well, did you do your prettiest-- and did he respond?"
22066Well, let us begin''Mansfield Park''--Molly, have you seen my knitting?"
22066Well, major, what is General Stuart about just now?"
22066Well, whom d''ye reckon he found in the Commandant''s office?"
22066Well-- do you think she will give them?"
22066Well?
22066Well?"
22066Were Pap and Dave and Billy fighting in that cloud?
22066Were Pap and Dave over there, shooting and cutting?
22066Were the dogs going, too?
22066Were the minnows gone from the pool?
22066What are my orders?_ Lee looked eastward toward South Mountain and southward to Harper''s Ferry.
22066What are they playing--?"
22066What are they playing?
22066What are you about?"
22066What are you going to see?
22066What best disposition of the strength that might arrive?
22066What can I do for you?"
22066What church do you attend?"
22066What command?
22066What d''you think we''d better do, sir?"

22066What did you do at Charlottesville?"
22066What did you fall out about?"
22066What did you hear?"
22066What did you see or hear coming through?"
22066What do they care if your foot''s cut and your back aches?
22066What do you make of him, major?"
22066What do you think is wrong with Jackson?"
22066What do you think of that?"
22066What do you think, Cleave?"
22066What do you think, General Lawton?"
22066What do you think, General Winder?"
22066What do you think, Unity?"
22066What do you think, colonel?"
22066What does he say?
22066What does he want?"
22066What does it mean?"
22066What else does she say?"
22066What gave you such an idea?
22066What had happened since then?
22066What had happened-- what was the matter?
22066What has become of Generals Fremont and McDowell?
22066What has your collection to do with it?"
22066What have you to say for yourselves?
22066What if he has fifteen thousand men?--what if he has_ twenty_ thousand?--What if McDowell is preparing to cross the Potomac?
22066What if he was entrenched behind stone walls at Martinsburg?
22066What if she attempts to reinforce it?
22066What if she declares for a_ compulsory_ Union?"
22066What if the Federal reserves had not stood, but had fled with the rest, and we had in some fashion achieved the Potomac?
22066What if the North declines to evacuate Fort Sumter?
22066What in hell!--d''ye suppose they''ve had enough?
22066What is going to happen then?
22066What is it, Julius?"
22066What is it, then?"
22066What is it?
22066What is it?"
22066What is it?"
22066What is it?--An officer from General Jackson?
22066What is the sentence?"
22066What is the young man named?"
22066What is your State?"
22066What is your advice?"
22066What is your name?"

22066What made you late?
22066What of Blackburn and Mitchell''s fords, and Longstreet''s demonstration, and the enemy''s reserves across Bull Run?
22066What of the Stone Bridge, now left almost undefended?
22066What of this mill by the river?"
22066What said Hamilton?
22066What sense in blaming where, had there followed success, you would have praised?
22066What they doing with the train?
22066What troops have you over there?"
22066What was it you said then?"
22066What was it you said then?"
22066What was really the reason?"
22066What was the sense in being frightened?
22066What was the use in sayin''that every time he looked at that thar bag he''d see Thunder Run?
22066What was this brawl about, Major Cleave?"
22066What were you doing here?"
22066What would you do now, in my place, but say-- but say,''I love you; let me go''?"

22066What''s that?"
22066What''s that?...
22066What''s the good of being a major- general if you''ve got to stick close to the pike?
22066What''s the matter here?
22066What''s the matter?"
22066What''s the news with you?"
22066What''s the sense of wiping down walls and letting James River run over the floors?
22066What''s the troops over there in the field?
22066What''s the use when it''s happening all the time?
22066What''s war, anyhow?
22066What''s your wegiment?--''65th Virginia?''
22066What?
22066When can you start?"
22066When had they eaten?
22066When would firing begin along this line?
22066When would the brigade have orders to move, when would it cross, when would things begin to happen?
22066When would the war be over?
22066Where are the children?"
22066Where did you come from?
22066Where do you think we''ll fight to- day?"
22066Where in column is the 65th?"
22066Where is General Jackson?"
22066Where is General Jackson?"

22066Where''d you keep that peach brandy when you had it?"
22066Where''s Evelington Heights?"
22066Where''s Marse Robert and Longstreet?"
22066Where''th your jacket?
22066Where''ve you been anyway, Steve, and how many did you kill on the road?"
22066Where, and how long?"
22066Whereupon he lays down his sword and cap and says,''May I look at thim?''"
22066Which is Coffin?"
22066Which of your great church structures do you prefer, sir?"
22066Which was the greatest, Achilles or Hector?"
22066Which will first recognize the Confederacy, England or France?
22066Who are they firing at?
22066Who calls it loss this afternoon?
22066Who doubts that to- morrow morning we shall hear that Cross Keys was won?
22066Who is the man who took up the shell?"
22066Who spoke?"
22066Who was at the pains to persuade you-- no hard matter, I warrant!--that I was dealing falsely?
22066Who was that coughing?"
22066Who were to determine whether the powers granted had been perverted to their injury or oppression?
22066Who''d I desert to?
22066Who''s charging now?
22066Who''s this, Ames?"
22066Who''s this?
22066Who''s your colonel?
22066Why ai n''t he here?
22066Why ca n''t we cross without a bridge?
22066Why did he not come to the house?"
22066Why did n''t I stay on Thunder Run and marry Lucinda Heard?"
22066Why did not the Confederate forces press the pursuit to the Potomac, twenty- five miles away?
22066Why did they not cross that river?
22066Why did they not take Washington?
22066Why did you not pursue from Manassas to Washington?
22066Why not expect the thing to show its nature?--Is this pleasant old house your goal?"
22066Why should I care?
22066Why should I?
22066Why should we?
22066Why take a capital comrade, a good cook and forager and story- teller, and make him uncomfortable by turning him into an officer?
22066Why was it necessary that the man should have felt thus, have thought thus, acted thus?
22066Why wo n''t they?
22066Why?
22066Will he not try to attack?"
22066Will you ask him, Doctor, if I may pay him a little visit?"
22066Will you be Sister of Mercy all day?"
22066Will you come for me?"
22066Will you not come in?"
22066Will you stay with us to- night, or have you fifty miles to make ere dawn?"
22066Will you wait here, sir?"
22066Wonder where the Yankees are?"
22066Would n''t it be exciting?
22066Would n''t you like to wash your face and hands?"
22066Would n''t you?"
22066Would they arrive upon this hill in time?
22066Would they give a hurt soldier a bed and something to eat?
22066Would you rather I went on to the house?
22066Wounded at Williamsburg!--King William Artillery?--Did you hear what General D. H. Hill said at Seven Pines?
22066You all on top, can you see the artillery and the wagons?"
22066You are a soldier-- you are back in the army?--but you have another name?
22066You are going back?"
22066You are on your way to Lauderdale?
22066You are well cared for where you are?"
22066You do n''t want him to have to_ wait_ for you, do you?
22066You have been all this while with General Magruder on the Peninsula?"
22066You have recent maps also?''
22066You have your pass from Williamsport?"
22066You know Carewe?--how he talks?
22066You know him, Stafford?
22066You know how Edward looks when he''s white- hot angry-- still and Greek looking?
22066You know it?"
22066You left Frederickshall--?"
22066You look for the battle to- morrow?"
22066You saw nothing of General Shields?"
22066You see that wooded ridge away across there?
22066You should get there, should you not, by night?"
22066You will be at Silver Hill throughout the week?"
22066You will give my love, will you not, to all my cousins at Greenwood?
22066You''ll excuse the metre?
22066You''ll take it and put a stamp on it and mail it, wo n''t you?
22066You''re a Virginian, are n''t you?"
22066You''re a Virginian, now?"
22066You''re staff?
22066You''ve got Bob Wheat with you?
22066You''ve got a big war of your own, in a country of your own-- eh?"
22066_ Do you know, I think we ought to have occupied that tongue of land?_"So, in sooth, thought others presently.
22066_ Him?_ Think of him?
22066_ Him?_ Think of him?
22066_ Is_ this the Army of the Valley?"
22066_ To keep-- to throw away?
22066_ What were they doing at home, by the fire, after supper, with the children playing about?_ At dawn the bugles blew.
22066_ Which of us will not see you again?_"The Alleghenies lay faint, faint, beneath the flooding light.
22066all changed like that?
22066and did you ever see the automatic chess- player?"
22066are we not?"
22066as far away as the_ river_?
22066asked Marchmont,"before attempting the Virginia shore?"
22066but it is, I think, apparent-- You will not go in?
22066come to help us kill mosquitoes?
22066damn you, where''s my sword and sash?"
22066demanded Pelham,"and how did you get in my lines?"
22066did he think Banks would wait?"
22066did we all ride like that before we came to Virginia?"
22066do n''t you want a glass of milk?"
22066good!--What is it, colonel?"
22066is it not?--Who led?--who fought?--who is fighting now?
22066listen to that!--Colonel, ca n''t you do something for us?--Where''s the colonel gone?"
22066maybe I am taking up your time, general, with things you already know?"
22066or do you want to know if I will make the attempt?
22066said Father Tierney,"did ye not know that I live here by myself?
22066said Sairy,"ai n''t it a real picnic feeling to get back to business?"
22066we have gangs of prisoners!--Who''s that coming out of the cloud?"
22066what if we took Jackson?"
22066what it all meant?
22066what was that?
22066what''s a- going to happen ef Steve takes to telling the truth?"
22066when will this war be over?"
22066when will we ford you again?"
22066where?"
22066who bewailest The frailty of all things here, Why choose you the frailest For your cradle, your home, and your bier?
22066why''d I volunteer in, seein''I ca n''t volunteer out?"
22066wounded or--?"
22066yo''ai n''t looking ter fin''de gineral heah at dis heah hour?
22066you ai n''t never going to leave us here for the Yanks to take?
22066you are not much hurt?"
22066you must have gone a good bit o''the way?"
18688But their lives are empty sometimes?"
18688Who spoke that?"
18688Why into my bosom?"
18688Why, Daisy,"said my father, passing over the last part of my speech,"how do you know all this?
18688About me?
18688About movements?
18688About what to do?
18688After all, why not, Daisy?
18688Against Beauregard?
18688Ah, but, do n''t you know that extremes meet?
18688All these old churches and relics then do not concern you?
18688Altogether?
18688Am I such a terror to you, Daisy?
18688Am I, papa?
18688An army surgeon,- how can he get away?
18688And Daisy?
18688And I should have liked his?
18688And are willing to have it there?
18688And can not you?
18688And do not share it at all?
18688And do not want to forgive him?
18688And do you expect there will be real work, as you call it? 18688 And do you not think that people are meant to enjoy this world, while they have it?"
18688And faith makes such a change in people''s feelings and lives?
18688And for those ignorant Moslems that live in the city now?
18688And he got your heart without your knowing it?
18688And how came you to think he thinks anything about it?
18688And how then, Daisy?
18688And if it is all undeserved?
18688And if you can not?
18688And if you take away the literal, where will the spiritual be?
18688And in view of it? 18688 And is this the reason why you will not look favourably on my suit?"
18688And is your judgment of the probable issue of the war, different from that I have expressed, Miss Randolph?
18688And it is my own living Daisy and not an image of her? 18688 And look here,- in what interest are you, Daisy?"
18688And may n''t I tell him you are there?
18688And not Marshall?
18688And pride?
18688And suppose Patterson does not do his duty?
18688And the question is, what I will do in the supposed circumstances? 18688 And what did you see?"
18688And what do you think of General Scott, Daisy? 18688 And what have ye been doing, my bonnie lady, since ye went away at eight o''clock o''the morn?"
18688And what is the reason that it is an argument? 18688 And what is the work to be done here?
18688And what of it?
18688And what then, dear, about the address?
18688And what then? 18688 And when, pray?"
18688And will they? 18688 And ye did n''t have your inheritance all in the future, I trust?"
18688And ye had a crumb of joy now and then?
18688And yet you will let your engagement stand, Daisy?
18688And you are travelling through Palestine too?
18688And you can go with us?
18688And you could not offer them any reward for going?
18688And you know what makes Southern wealth?
18688And you think the builder of the Dome of Florence had?
18688And you think_ that_ is in store for it yet?
18688And you were there?
18688And you will go to that city of trouble, and you will not let Christian know?
18688And you?
18688And_ I_ say, how may one escape from insignificance? 18688 Are n''t you my Daisy?"
18688Are there any sycamore trees here now?
18688Are there such things as masculine nerves?
18688Are they in need of care?
18688Are we not justified in endeavouring to escape from such a position?
18688Are you afraid now?
18688Are you afraid of me?
18688Are you apt to be self- willed?
18688Are you bent still upon living for other people, Daisy?
18688Are you better?
18688Are you comfortable?
18688Are you faint, my dear? 18688 Are you getting tired of hospital life?"
18688Are you going to desert me for that fellow?
18688Are you going to let that habit live? 18688 Are you going upon that old childish plan of yours?"
18688Are you happy, Daisy?
18688Are you quite well again?
18688Are you sure? 18688 Are you sure?"
18688Are you sure?
18688Are you tired out, dear?
18688Are you tired?
18688Are you vexed?
18688Are you well now, papa?
18688At home in America?
18688At the present time, Daisy,- I suppose, if you had your will, you would set at liberty at once all the people on the Magnolia plantations?
18688Ay?
18688Before we go to that, how has it fared with my little friend of old time, all these years?
18688Blue?
18688Business, Daisy?
18688But Herod?
18688But I think home is where we have lived,- is it not?
18688But about the provisions, Miss Randolph?
18688But are there any in immediate danger, do you think?
18688But are you going?
18688But are you not interested in a_ probable_ site, Daisy?
18688But at Bull Run rates-''sixty pieces of splendid cannon''taken, as Mr. Davis says, and how many killed and prisoners? 18688 But does he, easily, with other people?"
18688But had ye never a minister to counsel ye or to help ye, in those parts?
18688But if you were to go, would you not know it by this time?
18688But is it not prudent?
18688But is this a final settling of the question, Major Fairbairn?
18688But it is true?
18688But not about that?
18688But papa, in the mean time? 18688 But the people of the North are all accustomed to peaceful employments?"
18688But the question, child; do n''t you care about the question? 18688 But the road from Jericho to Jerusalem- there is no doubt of that?"
18688But there are others, Dr. Sandford? 18688 But we will go to Palestine, papa?"
18688But what have you done with your battery?
18688But what is it?
18688But what is it?
18688But what is the position of affairs?
18688But what_ is_ the matter, Daisy? 18688 But why did she secede?"
18688But why not take a sugar- plum, or a cigar, as well as other things- wine, or fruit, for instance?
18688But you agree with us as to the right of preserving our independence?
18688But you are going when I go?
18688But you are not going into the hospital?
18688But you said- you said-"What?
18688But you will not let her stay there, Grant?
18688But you, Daisy, how is it with you? 18688 But, Daisy, what do you mean?
18688But, Miss Randolph,said Mr. Marshall,"the care of infirm relatives, a father or a mother, can anything make that unworthy?"
18688But, mamma, when that is gone? 18688 But, mamma,- without funds?"
18688But, mamma? 18688 But, papa,-does the promise stand good, like Herod''s promise to that dancing woman?
18688But_ you_ are true?
18688By the way, why was not this letter written and sent sooner? 18688 By whom?"
18688By whom?
18688Ca n''t you say as much for him, Daisy?
18688Ca n''t you think of Jesus, and rest?
18688Ca n''t you trust the Lord?
18688Can I quite help it, Christian?
18688Can I?
18688Can a friend''s counsel be of any use?
18688Can not there?
18688Can not we be friends, Mr. Marshall? 18688 Can not you see that?"
18688Can not you trust?
18688Can there be a more significant word?
18688Can you lay your heart, just as it is, at Jesus''feet, and ask him to take it and make it right? 18688 Can you quite trust the Lord?"
18688Can you spare me, mamma? 18688 Can_ I_ trust her?"
18688Can_ you_ bear that, Daisy?
18688Casualties?
18688Christian, I could not let you know, for I was with my guardian- he is a sort of guardian for the time- and-"Well? 18688 Christian,"I began again after an interval,"were the troops that were sent over into Virginia just now, sent, do you suppose, to meet Beauregard?"
18688Christian,I said, seizing my time while my face was half hidden,"what would_ you_ do, supposing I should prove to be a very poor girl?"
18688Christian,I said,-"do n''t you see that it is best- my plan?"
18688Cigars? 18688 Come?"
18688Connecticut?
18688Daisy will not?
18688Daisy, do you expect to conform yourself and everybody to that pattern?
18688Daisy, how long have you been in Washington?
18688Daisy, must_ I_ tell_ you_, that there is One who can look it away? 18688 Daisy, what is this young man?"
18688Daisy,he began,"am I wrong?
18688Daisy,said papa presently, we had not changed our position,-"is Mr. Dinwiddie your friend, or mine?"
18688Daisy,said papa, tenderly, and looking at me now,-"you are strong?"
18688Daisy- is there anybody in the world that loves you as well as I do?
18688De Saussure or Marshall?
18688Did De Saussure propose to you yesterday?
18688Did he come up this way of the Beth- horons?
18688Did he? 18688 Did it come this way?"
18688Did nobody ever tell you you were beautiful?
18688Did not you, perhaps, bring about that desire in them, by your kind and possibly somewhat misjudged indulgences?
18688Did you believe it?
18688Did you believe it?
18688Did you doubt it, papa?
18688Did you ever see anything superior to it, Mr. Randolph? 18688 Did you get any clear understanding of what your mother might mean, one day at breakfast, when she was alluding to friends of yours in America?
18688Did you go to balls there?
18688Did you let him look at you, Daisy?
18688Did you meet in society here that winter a Miss St. Clair, who used to be once a schoolmate of mine? 18688 Did you tell him sharply?"
18688Did you use to see it in me?
18688Do I not know it already? 18688 Do I?
18688Do n''t they crowd upon everybody?
18688Do n''t you know that? 18688 Do n''t you know?"
18688Do n''t you mean to speak to anybody else?
18688Do n''t you remember, sir, his great works, and the timber he had to get from Lebanon?
18688Do n''t you think glory is a thing to live for?
18688Do n''t you think poets may be wrong as well as other people, Major Fairbairn?
18688Do n''t you want to see some of your old friends?
18688Do they never come now, in the way of their duty, to an impassable barrier of danger or difficulty, through which the same hand opens their path? 18688 Do we know?
18688Do ye mind,my old friend said,"how the flowers spoke to you and brought you messages, when Daisy was a child yet and first came to see me?"
18688Do you acknowledge that?
18688Do you always like people best that are the best, Daisy?
18688Do you dislike it, honestly, Miss Randolph?
18688Do you doubt it?
18688Do you expect the North will be able to stand against them?
18688Do you find it so? 18688 Do you have this sort of concert most evenings?"
18688Do you know what this is, Daisy?
18688Do you know where you are?
18688Do you know, for instance, that your skin is exquisite, in colour and texture?
18688Do you know, they all have a passion for command? 18688 Do you know,"said he,"such independence of all the exterior world,- of mortals, I mean,- is very tantalising to those disregarded mortals?"
18688Do you like Hugh Marshall better?
18688Do you like Hugh better? 18688 Do you like to see him very much, Daisy?"
18688Do you love Preston Gary?
18688Do you maintain your purpose?
18688Do you mean he is the favourite?
18688Do you mean that, Daisy?
18688Do you not incline to gratify her?
18688Do you now, papa?
18688Do you realise anything here, Daisy?
18688Do you really think that?
18688Do you see, you are to have a better nurse than you deserve?
18688Do you think Daisy has some special means of knowledge?
18688Do you think He loves one man less than another because his skin is darker?
18688Do you think I do not see all this beauty before us? 18688 Do you think it is always wrong to fight?"
18688Do you think,I asked, after a long silence,"that this mountain was really the scene of the Temptation?"
18688Do you understand it?
18688Do you understand me, Daisy? 18688 Do?
18688Doctor,said Preston when we came round to him,"wo n''t you send away Miss Randolph out of a place that she is not fit for?"
18688Does Mrs. Randolph give her consent to this proceeding?
18688Does he get angry?
18688Does he write to you?
18688Does he_ dare?_Mr. Thorold said in a different tone.
18688Does independence mean, the governing power? 18688 Does it lie in our route?"
18688Does n''t he?
18688Does n''t she look like it?
18688Does she know?
18688Does that man come to see you or me, Daisy?
18688Does that no tell you something?
18688Does the child think he is perfect?
18688Does this strange news make you happy?
18688Does your mother know?
18688Does_ she_ know I am here?
18688Dr. Sandford, do you think there is real danger to the country?
18688Dr. Sandford,said I,"will you take me with you and give me my lesson?
18688Dresses? 18688 Eh?"
18688Every one?
18688Explains what?
18688Fairbairn? 18688 Feverish tendency?"
18688Find them so?
18688For receptions at the White House? 18688 For the country, are you afraid?"
18688For which side are you so anxious?
18688For whom?
18688Free?
18688Friends? 18688 From West Point?"
18688Give him and yourself the_ chance_- of what, Daisy?
18688Grateful- for what?
18688Had he improved?
18688Has Dr. Sandford gone?
18688Has Johnston joined Beauregard?
18688Has anybody ventured to tell you, Miss Randolph, that you have changed within a few months?
18688Has it been too much for you?
18688Has the war got into New England? 18688 Have I lost you, Daisy?"
18688Have n''t you found_ that_ out yet?
18688Have they tried you very much, Daisy?
18688Have ye not had letters from him?
18688Have you a little of my feeling?
18688Have you been drilling troops to- day?
18688Have you brought any books, Daisy?
18688Have you satisfied your curiosity with Eugene Sue''s house?
18688Have you then no kindness for me?
18688Have you wanted to go to Palestine ever since you were ten years old?
18688Help it? 18688 Hey?
18688His aunt? 18688 His writing too?"
18688How about liking the gentlemen?
18688How am I changed?
18688How came she to do such an absurd thing as to let you come here? 18688 How came the report that you were her dearest friend?"
18688How can I get it to him?
18688How can I help it?
18688How can he?
18688How can it be helped, in the case of many a one?
18688How can it ever be made certain, papa? 18688 How can they help it?"
18688How can you answer?
18688How can you see it, Christian?
18688How come you to be so strong, and so young, and so- well, so unlike all this sort of thing? 18688 How comes it that he, as well as you, has kept silence?"
18688How did you like West Point?
18688How do I know?
18688How do you do now?
18688How do you do, Preston?
18688How do you do, this morning, Gary?
18688How do you do?
18688How do you estimate Mr. Leypoldt, then? 18688 How do you feel?"
18688How do you know anything about that, Daisy?
18688How do you know? 18688 How do you like Paris, my child?"
18688How do you like it?
18688How does he know better?
18688How else can one make up one''s mind? 18688 How has it come to pass then, my pet?
18688How has it hurt you?
18688How has it_ fared_ with me?
18688How have these weeks been with Miss Randolph? 18688 How have they escaped that?"
18688How have you learned so much about it, so much more than I?
18688How is all here?
18688How is it no matter?
18688How is it?
18688How long will you stay?
18688How long?
18688How many did they lose?
18688How many engaged? 18688 How many men do you suppose he has?"
18688How many, Daisy?
18688How much could you, do you suppose?
18688How shall I be glad as you are glad, Daisy?
18688How should he understand it, Daisy?
18688How so?
18688How soon are you going to send Daisy to Europe?
18688How soon do you expect to do that?
18688How soon?
18688How was that done? 18688 How was their freedom threatened?"
18688How will that help the matter?
18688How would it be, if the North succeeded, papa?
18688How''s he wounded?
18688How, papa?
18688Hugh, what do you say?
18688I have not offended, have I?
18688I heard it from Aunt Catherine yesterday- I should have found you before another day went over- Daisy, how long?
18688I know it will not if the North succeed,I said;"but how if the Southern army should get the better?"
18688I know they have; but what sent them home?
18688I mean, you are a true Northerner? 18688 I only asked, who it was to be, Daisy?
18688I suppose you would begin by setting them all free?
18688I think he does, papa-"You say, you''have talked''? 18688 I?"
18688I?
18688If it would do the cause any good, I would not care; but what good does it do? 18688 If we are patient now?
18688If we go to Paris, Daisy? 18688 If ye be not able to do that thing which is least, why take ye thought for the rest?"
18688If you please, how do you expect I am to live till then?
18688Imagine what?
18688In Washington? 18688 In public, mamma?"
18688In that? 18688 In what sense can a thing be''done for God?''
18688In what sense is Mr. Lincoln a usurper?
18688Indirectly?
18688Is Dr. Sandford really better?
18688Is McClellan the man we want?
18688Is anything the matter?
18688Is he in the_ Northern_ army, Daisy?
18688Is it De Saussure, then?
18688Is it Preston Gary?
18688Is it a general engagement?
18688Is it a possible thing,said mamma,"that a daughter of mine can be such a simpleton?
18688Is it for your sake, Daisy?
18688Is it getting to be such serious earnest?
18688Is it likely that Patterson will fight?
18688Is it needful?
18688Is it possible Daisy has turned politician?
18688Is it possible it is Daisy?
18688Is it they?
18688Is it true, that a battle has been won by McDowell?
18688Is it true?
18688Is my reputation in danger, to be riding with you?
18688Is n''t it a wonder, that I live, and that I shall live for ever?
18688Is n''t it somebody you know?
18688Is n''t now a good time?
18688Is not Dr. Sandford attending to our affairs for us, mamma?
18688Is not my word sufficient?
18688Is she alive?
18688Is that Daisy?
18688Is that all your boasted religion is good for?
18688Is that the question?
18688Is that_ all_ you think good in the news?
18688Is the doctor jealous of you, Daisy?
18688Is there any question?
18688Is there anybody engaged in this struggle, Daisy, that you are concerned for?
18688Is this to be taken as a specimen of Palestine roads, Daisy?
18688It stands good, papa? 18688 It will do, wo n''t it?"
18688It would not cost more to go to Palestine, would it, papa, than to live as we are doing now?
18688Mamma, what difference can that possibly make?
18688Mamma,I said,"do n''t you think it is growing chill?"
18688Mamma- why do you speak so? 18688 Mamma?
18688Many killed?
18688Matter?
18688May I ask, what can be the explanation of your words? 18688 May I influence you in something else?"
18688Me? 18688 Me?
18688Melbourne?
18688Miss Cardigan,I said at length,"what is Christian''s address in Washington?"
18688More than I have?
18688More?
18688Mr. Marshall and Mr. De Saussure, do you mean?
18688Must not every woman wish for peace?
18688Must you know, before you tell me?
18688My Daisy- he said,-"what do you want of me?"
18688My dear child, is there not a little fanaticism there?
18688My dear child, what do you want of those things?
18688My dear, you would not marry without your parents''consent?
18688My dear,said Miss Yates, touching my shoulder,"had n''t you better give up for to- night?
18688No fire in her?
18688No, ma''am; but if I could get a good safe friend to go with me?
18688No, mamma, but- what do you mean by''in public''?
18688No, papa, you have not lost; you can not; I am not changed, papa, do you not see that I am not changed? 18688 No, papa; but if the little world has such effects what must the great one do?"
18688Nobody else, Daisy?
18688Not a Southerner?
18688Not if his life is insignificant?
18688Not in itself,I said;"but suppose a man''s duty calls him away?
18688Not to please somebody he wishes to please?
18688Not when you are training soldiers?
18688Not-?
18688Nothing more?
18688Now, Miss Randolph, what is it?
18688Now,said he,"are you fixed in the plan of devoting yourself to the care of this ungracious cousin?"
18688Oh, Major,said I,"what is the news?"
18688Only,- what would you think of a lady who sat down regularly to eat sugar- plums three or four times a day and the last thing before going to bed? 18688 Out of the way of fighting, do you mean?
18688Out of the way of what, Daisy?
18688Out of the way of what?
18688Papa, do n''t you think that, having died for them, He holds them precious?
18688Papa, do n''t you think the Lord Jesus loves the people for whom He died?
18688Papa, do you see?
18688Papa, may I?
18688Papa, only one thing more,- if you are willing, that we should sometimes write to each other?
18688Papa, what do you think will?
18688Papa,I asked,"how much did mamma know- I mean- how much did she hear about me that was true?"
18688Papa,I began,"may I ask you a few questions, the better to come at what I want?"
18688Papa,said I,"do n''t you think it must be very strong reasons that can justify so dreadful a thing as a war?"
18688Papa,- do you?
18688Papa- I think- Do n''t you think, Mr. Marshall has the most principle?
18688Papa- what did our Lord do?
18688Papa-"Has he ever told you his thoughts?
18688Papa? 18688 Patient, and wait?"
18688Permit me to ask first, Are your convictions strong and clear, that it is your duty to go home and enter the war for the South?
18688Pomegranates are not ripe now, are they?
18688Pray why?
18688Pray, what for? 18688 Pray, what little world have you seen?"
18688Pray, what? 18688 Praying?"
18688Pretty happy?
18688Pride? 18688 Promises?"
18688Really?
18688Remembered? 18688 Rides and walks- how many rides and walks have you taken, Daisy, these forlorn weeks, with officers of the Northern army?
18688Right?
18688Safe from what?
18688Shall we go? 18688 Should he?"
18688Signor Piacevoli- what do you think of him?
18688So you knew about it?
18688Stay here, in this hotel?
18688Studying it all, Daisy?
18688Suppose he should be angry about it?
18688Suppose the one goes to the battlefield for his own glory, and the other stays at home for his own ease?
18688Suppose your father and mother- suppose they are obdurate, Daisy, and will not have me, being a Northern man and in the Government service?
18688Tell her, Grant, what is she now?
18688That is n''t much, papa; all that is in Murray; but now may I read you about Solomon''s floats of timber, while you are finishing that pomegranate?
18688That is to tell me we must turn homeward?
18688That old cry,''Where is the Lord God of Elijah?'' 18688 That soldier?
18688That this world is only the portal to glory? 18688 That was all?"
18688The call for fortitude?
18688The major? 18688 The same sky, Daisy?
18688The truth?
18688The very mention of them- do you know what it does?
18688The worthiest object of life?
18688Then first, what is it you think of most, in looking over from this place to Jerusalem?
18688Then he comes here to see you?
18688Then it is not over?
18688Then it refers to their return from captivity, does it not?
18688Then it was for you and me, papa?
18688Then papa- should we?
18688Then the wrong done them was that they were out- voted?
18688Then there will be a battle?
18688Then who is so bitterly oppressed just now, Miss Randolph?
18688Then you do not think Beauregard will come and take Washington?
18688Then you think they are as brave as the South? 18688 Then you think-my dear, you augur ill of your father''s and mother''s opinion of your engagement?"
18688Then you wrote?
18688Then your feelings continue all with the Northern men, Daisy?
18688Then, if they succeed, what will be the state of things between them and the North?
18688Then, papa, add that one word about letters, will you?
18688Then, papa, what will He say to us, for keeping those whom He loves and died for, at arms''length or under our feet? 18688 Then, unless your minds are known to each other, will there not be danger of mistaken action, on the one part or on the other?"
18688There can be nothing coming from our Magnolia estates- and our Virginia property is a mere battle ground, you know; and what have we to live upon?
18688There is no sugar cane here now?
18688There must have been a great many of those old Christians living here once?
18688There was a bit of a smile upon your mouth just now- before I spoke;- what were you thinking of?
18688There''s crumbs to be gotten even now from that feast; ye did n''t go starving, my bairn?
18688These war- shows make you thoughtful?
18688They would disregard your views, or you would disregard theirs,- which?
18688Thought what?
18688Till I say so? 18688 To be misled by her feelings?"
18688To do what?
18688To get you away from me?
18688To make him run? 18688 To speak to me?
18688To stay?
18688To whose being engaged, papa?
18688To- night?
18688True to what? 18688 Try what, Mr. De Saussure?"
18688Was Preston there then?
18688Weight with me? 18688 Well, Christian?"
18688Well, Daisy,said papa,"are you enjoying yet?"
18688Well, how do you like it, Miss Randolph?
18688Well, now you know it is not; and again I come back to my question,- Which is it to be?
18688Well, papa,- do n''t you?
18688Well, so am I,papa answered;"but what had you to do with sending them home?"
18688Well, what are you pondering?
18688Well, what, love?
18688Well, why not?
18688Well,said papa, rather growlingly,"what then?"
18688Well,- what good will that do them?
18688Well- if I did it for love of you?
18688Well? 18688 Well?
18688Well?
18688Well?
18688Well?
18688Well?
18688Well?3- said he tenderly, stroking my hair,what is it?
18688Were we?
18688Were you in Washington the winter of''61?
18688Were you long at West Point?
18688What about you?
18688What are you doing there?
18688What are you doing up there?
18688What are you questioning, Miss Daisy?
18688What are you talking of?
18688What are_ you_ on, Christian?
18688What better time can we ever have, papa?
18688What can I do for you?
18688What can I do?
18688What can not be, if you please?
18688What can you mean, Miss Randolph?
18688What chance is there, lying here; and only a few minutes at that?
18688What choice have you made, then? 18688 What connection is there between cigars and sugar- plums?"
18688What could have been the foundation of that story?
18688What could you do, child? 18688 What did you expect to do then, Daisy, if I was never to be told?"
18688What did you say to him?
18688What did_ you_ do, Daisy?
18688What do you fear, Daisy?
18688What do you know of places where the heart_ was?_said papa, looking at me curiously.
18688What do you mean by fanaticism, mamma?
18688What do you mean to do, mamma?
18688What do you mean, Daisy?
18688What do you mean, Preston?
18688What do you mean?
18688What do you say, Miss Randolph?
18688What do you think about it?
18688What do you think of that, Daisy? 18688 What do you think of your ward?"
18688What do you think to do with yourself to- day, now?
18688What do you think, Grant?
18688What do you want of me, Daisy?
18688What do_ you_ mean? 18688 What do_ you_ think is right?"
18688What does Miss Randolph say?
18688What does it mean, then?
18688What does it tell me?
18688What does my other friend here think about it?
18688What does she sing?
18688What extremes?
18688What for? 18688 What has Patterson been doing all this while?"
18688What has brought him here?
18688What has brought_ you_ here, Preston?
18688What has changed you so?
18688What have you come here for?
18688What if they chose a Southern husband for you, and laid their commands in his favour?
18688What is General Patterson doing?
18688What is a figure?
18688What is all this about De Saussure and Marshall?
18688What is doing at home, Dinwiddie?
18688What is formed, and what is unformed?
18688What is it you can not undo, little Daisy?
18688What is it you can not undo? 18688 What is it, Daisy?
18688What is it, Daisy?
18688What is it, Ransom?
18688What is it?
18688What is it?
18688What is she thinking of?
18688What is that to you? 18688 What is that?
18688What is that?
18688What is the difficulty, Daisy?
18688What is the matter with you, Daisy?
18688What is the matter with you, Daisy?
18688What is the matter, Daisy?
18688What is the matter?
18688What is the matter?
18688What is the matter?
18688What is the matter?
18688What is the source of your pleasure just now, Daisy? 18688 What is the use of having friends?"
18688What is to become of us in the mean time, mamma?
18688What is yours? 18688 What is''home,''Miss Daisy?"
18688What made you do it, then?
18688What makes you ask?
18688What matters, papa?
18688What mischief have you done?
18688What must the system be where such things are possible? 18688 What must_ I_ do?"
18688What news, major?
18688What next?
18688What o''clock is it?
18688What place is that? 18688 What put that argument into your mouth?"
18688What question, Major Fairbairn?
18688What raised the anger?
18688What rig?
18688What risk?
18688What route will you take, when we get to land?
18688What shall I do?
18688What shall we do now, Daisy?
18688What side are you on, Daisy?
18688What sort of a person is she?
18688What sort of news?
18688What then, Daisy, my friend?
18688What then, Miss Randolph?
18688What then, my dear? 18688 What then?
18688What then? 18688 What then?"
18688What then?
18688What thing?
18688What truth? 18688 What two?"
18688What was Peter''s vision, besides the stars?
18688What was it, Daisy?
18688What was the''self- will''about, Daisy?
18688What were the voices? 18688 What were you doing just now,"said he savagely,"by that soldier''s bedside?"
18688What will it be to me?
18688What will their word be?
18688What will you do when you have one of those quiet people for your husband?
18688What will you do?
18688What would you do for them, Daisy?
18688What would you do?
18688What wrong was done her?
18688What''work''are you going to do?
18688What, Daisy?
18688What, my pet?
18688What, to see the meeting of Congress? 18688 What?
18688What?
18688What?
18688What?
18688What_ has_ come over you?
18688What_ has_ it done to me?
18688When did Faustina come here?
18688When did you see him?
18688When does the_ Persia_ go?
18688When will_ that_ be?
18688When, and where?
18688When, then, will you tell them?
18688When?
18688Where are my people, doctor?
18688Where are we to stop to- night, Daisy? 18688 Where are you going now?"
18688Where did you learn so much about it?
18688Where is Aunt Randolph?
18688Where is mamma?
18688Where then?
18688Where was this?
18688Where? 18688 Where?"
18688Which of them must I like a little more than very well, Daisy?
18688Which of these young friends of ours do you like the best, Daisy?
18688Which- of what, mamma?
18688Who does know?
18688Who has been Daisy''s trumpeter?
18688Who has tried, then?
18688Who is Lyon, De Saussure?
18688Who is Lyon?
18688Who is estimating you, in a corner at home?
18688Who is he?
18688Who is it this time, Daisy?
18688Who is it to be, Daisy?
18688Who is it, then?
18688Who is to be married?
18688Who on our side?
18688Who says it?
18688Who told you all this, papa?
18688Who told you?
18688Who was Eugene Sue?
18688Who?
18688Who_ is_ Major Fairbairn?
18688Why are they not true, Miss Randolph?
18688Why did you never tell me before, Daisy?
18688Why did you not say so before?
18688Why do they not? 18688 Why do you ask me?"
18688Why do you ask?
18688Why do you hope so, Major Fairbairn?
18688Why do you tell me that?
18688Why is it absurd?
18688Why not let yourself do it? 18688 Why not live for this world, while you are in it, Daisy?"
18688Why not to a woman, for the same reason?
18688Why not, little one?
18688Why not, papa?
18688Why not? 18688 Why not?"
18688Why not?
18688Why not?
18688Why not?
18688Why should I, Miss Cardigan? 18688 Why should I?"
18688Why should it make any one melancholy?
18688Why should n''t he be wounded, when his betters are? 18688 Why should we think so?
18688Why so? 18688 Why were you afraid?"
18688Why''nothing more''?
18688Why, Daisy,said papa, lifting my face again for scrutiny,-"how do you know?
18688Why, Daisy?
18688Why, Miss Cardigan,said I, smiling,"do you think the, world will hate me for such a thing?"
18688Why, do you care for him?
18688Why, how can you ask?
18688Why, mamma?
18688Why, more than the ruins?
18688Why, you ai n''t going to give out, are you?
18688Why,said Ransom, hotly,"what do you think of armies upon the soil of Virginia?
18688Why? 18688 Why?"
18688Why?
18688Why?
18688Will nothing but a miracle do, Miss Daisy?
18688Will that do?
18688Will the doctor come after you?
18688Will they give up, you mean? 18688 Will we not?"
18688Will you do it for me, Dr. Sandford? 18688 Will you excuse me?
18688Will you go and lie down now, my lamb?
18688Will you go, if I get you an invitation?
18688Will you try, Daisy?
18688Will you write to let him know? 18688 Wo n''t they come nearer to us?"
18688Would n''t you like to see the house of Eugene Sue?
18688Would n''t you wish it, papa, for yourself and me, if we were two of them? 18688 Would she like to see me, do you think?"
18688Would that? 18688 Would you?
18688Would your daughter say so?
18688Would''st thou go forth to bless? 18688 Yes, I know; but the North- will they take this as a settlement of the question?"
18688Yes, but how good is it, Major Fairbairn?
18688Yet you ask me for the thought?
18688You are better?
18688You are fatigued, Miss Randolph?
18688You are n''t a rebel in disguise?
18688You are not glad to see me?
18688You are not going?
18688You are not unwilling, papa?
18688You are not waiting for Preston, are you? 18688 You are sure?"
18688You are_ afraid!_ Then the news means nothing to you; nothing good, I mean?
18688You are_ living_ in Palestine?
18688You do not believe in fighting, under any circumstances?
18688You do not feel well to- night, Grant?
18688You do not mean ever to come home?
18688You do not mean that such a fate can overtake the whole South?
18688You do not seem very glad of it?
18688You do not wish to see anything by the way?
18688You do not?
18688You have never heard from your American friend?
18688You have not forgotten your Lord, Daisy?
18688You have not heard Mr. Lincoln talk, have you?
18688You know what makes my father and mother rich?
18688You mean, show myself in a fine dress and in a fine assembly, papa?
18688You mean- what? 18688 You remember our words one day about insignificant lives?"
18688You see who has come to look after you?
18688You think with them, that he ought to go?
18688You think, we can not understand it?
18688You walk with other people, do n''t you?
18688You want me to save you the trouble?
18688You will condescend to explain so extraordinary a statement?
18688You will not be the owner of them?
18688You will tell them, Daisy?
18688You would know better how to sing, to wit?
18688You would not waste it upon me, if you thought I would scorn it?
18688Your cousin Gary?
18688Your cousin, Mr. Gary, whom we saw last summer;- on which side is he?
18688Your cousin, do you mean?
18688Your feeling about himself?
18688Your parents, Daisy, would not desire these Northern associations for you; would they?
18688Yours, Daisy?
18688_ Calm?_ mamma,I said, laughing.
18688_ He_ did not?
18688_ His_ hospital?
18688_ I_ go to that den of thieves? 18688 _ Is_ it thoughts, Daisy?"
18688_ Very_ careful?
18688- Daisy, my dear, what is the matter?"
18688- Have you ever, no you never have, seen much of sickness and death, and that?"
18688- Will you take mine?"
18688- and Falling Waters, and so on?"
18688- and Great Bethel?
18688- and at the close of our reading he asked again in a perplexed manner,"You do not let it trouble you, Daisy?"
18688- and for mamma and Ransom, if they were two more?"
18688- and his Jericho?"
18688- and meanwhile do my blessed work?
18688- anyhow?"
18688- but have_ I_ brought those tears into your eyes?"
18688- can you tell?"
18688- dear friends, and nothing more?"
18688- either yours or theirs?"
18688- invading armies, come to take what they like?
18688- just for myself?
18688- my Daisy?"
18688- or military reviews?
18688- or parades, or encampments?
18688- or shall I?"
18688- who?"
18688- wine?
18688- you remember?"
18688-""Do you think,"she broke out with violence,"that this war is going to last for ever?
18688-""If I could be content to have your faith in secret, or to wait to know if I might have it at all?
18688-""Well?"
18688-""What, papa?"
18688-_ here?_ Who, Dr.
18688About Solomon''s temple,- there is nothing of it left now, I suppose?"
18688After those hundred and fifty years when there were no Jews allowed here, who was to remember the spot of the Sepulchre?
18688And Magnolia?
18688And by the by- what_ are_ you going to do, when school closes and you are set free?"
18688And do n''t you want to see the President?"
18688And is that, following Christ?
18688And then as I hesitated,-"For one of those two?"
18688And what chance should I have, in the street?
18688And what if God willed I should be thus poor?
18688And what more than usual this afternoon?"
18688And what then?
18688And when they enter into the joy of their Lord, will they care what His service has cost them?"
18688And who is this person?"
18688Are n''t you mine?"
18688Are not mountains always witnesses for God?
18688Are you afraid?
18688Are you cased in proof armour?
18688Are you glad?"
18688Are you going farther?"
18688Are you going to claim the promise?"
18688Are you going to put me through a course of theology, Daisy?"
18688Are you in a hurry to go back to school?"
18688Are you tired of Washington, Daisy?"
18688At the review I knew I had little reason to hope for what I wanted; at the Capitol- after all, what chance there?
18688But I have not misunderstood you, Daisy?
18688But allow me to ask you just in passing, what do you think of our young English friend?"
18688But did you not know that you were beautiful?"
18688But do most people''s lives signify anything, except to some fond judgment of that sort?"
18688But do you think it was for all the world, or only for a part of them?"
18688But how was it, so far away, my bairn?
18688But if the power that holds us up is perfect,- what should hinder our having a fulness of that?
18688But pardon me,- have_ you_ seen it?"
18688But suppose it were not,- suppose that the joy of my life were gone, passed over to another; who had done it?
18688But suppose they were inferior,- since Christ died for them, does He not love them?"
18688But then-"What, Miss Cardigan?"
18688But what else, Daisy?
18688But what had I just been asking, but that I might carry messages?
18688But what to sing?
18688But what would you do, Daisy?"
18688But when all was done, and the ward was quiet, I stood at the foot of the dying man''s bed, thinking, what could I do more for him?
18688But which do you like best, of the two?
18688But you knew once that a Northern Blue- coat had been pierced by the fire of your eyes?"
18688But you like him, do n''t you?
18688But you think so?"
18688But, Daisy, what will your father and mother say to you?"
18688But, Mr. Dinwiddie, have you got a tent?"
18688But- your father and mother, my dear?"
18688By the way, how long_ have_ you been in Washington, Daisy?"
18688By the way, why do you not like dancing?"
18688By what title does he dare shut up Southern ports and send his cut- throats upon Southern soil?"
18688By whose will was my life stripped?
18688Ca n''t you leave the matter to him?"
18688Can it be possible?"
18688Can not you bear that?"
18688Can they be?"
18688Can you trust Jesus to cure you?
18688Can you trust the Pilot still?"
18688Christian held my hand very fast, and after a few minutes began again-"Does he know you are angry, Daisy?"
18688Could Daisy do that?
18688Could I be silent?
18688Could I do it?
18688Could I help it?
18688Could I hide the fact then?
18688Could I not trust Him-?
18688Could I not wait a while?
18688Could I say that both might not be mistaken?
18688Could I tell them that my heart was with the Northern army; and how it went out after every gleam of one particular sabre?
18688Could I?
18688Could intelligence be awake, in that oppressed condition of the bodily powers?
18688Daisy, have you ever seen the President before?"
18688Daisy, have you well considered this matter?"
18688Daisy, my pet, where have you been?"
18688Daisy, would it be honouring them, to let them not know?"
18688De Saussure, what is_ your_ estimate of life''s objects?
18688Did I not say what I was thinking of?
18688Did he never give it to you?"
18688Did mamma know about Mr. Thorold?
18688Did they never take hold on ye, Daisy?"
18688Did you come alone?"
18688Did you never find that they do, in your own experience?"
18688Did you think, Daisy, he had forgotten you?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Dinwiddie?"
18688Do n''t you know that?
18688Do n''t you see?"
18688Do n''t you think they can get through it without me?
18688Do n''t you think you have duties, lassie?
18688Do n''t you want to go, Daisy?
18688Do n''t you want to see him again?"
18688Do these differences of feeling or opinion touch action?
18688Do you care very much for that?"
18688Do you carry your principles so far, Daisy, that you mean you would not let anybody approach you who is not of your way of thinking?"
18688Do you know them yourself, Daisy?"
18688Do you know what you are talking of, Daisy?"
18688Do you know where you are now?"
18688Do you like Hugh better?"
18688Do you not think it is reasonable that I should know?"
18688Do you remember whose daughter you are?
18688Do you say go, Daisy?"
18688Do you see that round hole over your head?"
18688Do you think I would have brought you into danger?"
18688Do you think his trust was well placed?"
18688Do you think it, Daisy?"
18688Do you wish me to go and fight the North, as your mother says I ought?"
18688Do you?"
18688Does every minority, as such, lose its independence?"
18688Does that bring the colour back?"
18688Dull?"
18688Eug � ne Sue, is it, that we are going to see?"
18688Even if the grounds of my happiness were precarious, I had trusted God all my life with all I cared for; could I not trust Him still?
18688For some other?"
18688For what had I rejected them all?
18688Forgive me, wo n''t you?"
18688Grant, you are not going to permit such a thing?"
18688Had Christian no soldiers under him?
18688Had I changed so much?
18688Had I done wrong, made any unconscious mistake neglected any duty, that this trouble had come upon me?
18688Had my wish been cowardly and political?
18688Had papa come to that?
18688Have I accomplished what I said at the beginning I would try to do,- follow out the present truth of my life to the possible glory?
18688Have n''t you written to him?"
18688Have you been out into the great world already?"
18688Have you heard nothing from him, Daisy, since you came to Switzerland?"
18688He folded me close again and kissed me over and over, and then whispered,-"Who is it, Daisy?"
18688He shook my hand heartily, which he had not yet let go, laughing, and asked where we were going?
18688Hey, Daisy?"
18688Hey?
18688How can you be so quiet?
18688How can you keep so quiet?
18688How can you know what is the truth?"
18688How could I answer her?
18688How could I please Him who had chosen me to be a soldier, with my heart set on my own pleasure, and busy with my own fears?
18688How could I speak anything of what had been in my mind to be said?
18688How could I tell, Miss Cardigan?"
18688How did it result?"
18688How do you do, Mrs. Sandford?
18688How do you feel about that?"
18688How else could I live at all as a believing and obedient child of God?
18688How else could I live, with the struggle before me?
18688How if the war went for the North?
18688How is it, Daisy?
18688How is it, Daisy?"
18688How is it?"
18688How long will you stay in Washington?
18688How may it be better?
18688How should I get them in Switzerland?
18688How soon can you both be ready?"
18688How soon, mother, will the fever be there?"
18688I am not trying to keep the law, to buy my life; but I am_ keeping_ the law, because Christ has given me life- do you see, papa?
18688I began to wonder, as we were sailing towards home in the end of the day, what work I had to do in this new and strange place; why was I here?
18688I believe the blushes came then, and they all laughed at me; but Dr. Sandford asked me very kindly if I was too tired to see the review that day?
18688I cried;"what are you saying?
18688I felt more and more sure as he drew nearer, if that can be when I had been sure all along; but, would he know me?
18688I got this for you- will you scorn it, or value it?"
18688I knew Dr. Sandford would be here by and by; how should I bear it?
18688I knew she could not; but then, what did she mean?
18688I laughed and asked her, what was the change in me?
18688I looked, and as I looked, these words came up in my mind-"Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith?"
18688I said;-"before my father and mother come home?"
18688I say, what does one signify?"
18688I suppose you do n''t dress so at home, do you?
18688I suppose, or am I not to suppose, that then you will consider your work done?"
18688I will wait, till-""Till Christian does it?"
18688I wonder how he comes to be in Washington?"
18688If I may do this work, shall I complain, because I have not the helper I wanted; when God is my helper?
18688If his foe had disappeared from before him, must he not follow on this way, where( I thought) men were so imperatively needed?
18688If the arms of those-_ what_ are they?
18688If this matter were not in the way, would you have any kindness for me, Daisy?
18688In that voice?
18688Indeed rather, what had I not gained?
18688Is Major Fairbairn South or North?
18688Is he afraid of me?"
18688Is he badly off?"
18688Is it disagreeable to you?"
18688Is it not so, Daisy?"
18688Is it not so?"
18688Is it the very same Daisy?"
18688Is it your rule of supposed duty, that a man must be a Christian after your sort, to obtain your favour?"
18688Is n''t it a wonder, that the Prince of Heaven came down to open the way and to show it to us?
18688Is n''t it hot?"
18688Is n''t it true?
18688Is n''t that promise good for all we want to ask?"
18688Is she right in that?"
18688Is that what they are gone for?"
18688Is that what you mean?"
18688Is that your idea of freedom?"
18688Is that your thought?"
18688Is that your way of being a proper soldier''s wife?
18688Is this all that separates us?"
18688Is your father the only one to be in your confidence?
18688It is that fellow Thorold, is n''t it?"
18688It seems to me that you do not look upon matters at home with just the eye that the rest of us have for them?"
18688It''s all true; but what can you do?"
18688Johnston reinforced Beauregard?
18688Lee?"
18688Let my choice be known?
18688Look- do you say maroon or dark purple for this bit of grounding?
18688Look- look yonder- do you see that glimmer?
18688Marshall?"
18688Marshall?"
18688May I not be that?"
18688May it not be, that they know best?"
18688Men, is there news?"
18688Miss Cardigan exclaimed,-"is it you?
18688Mounted, my companion asked me, where should we go?
18688Mrs. Sandford and he, were going to West Point- and so-""West Point did you good?"
18688Mrs. Sandford looked somewhat startled and asked who the friend might be?
18688Must hopes always be twin with such fears?
18688Must joy take such close hold on sorrow?
18688Must not open truth be the best way always?
18688My darling, you look pale- what is it for?"
18688My dear Daisy, you are in pain; those were not tears of joy; what did that chant say to your sensibilities?
18688My dear, are you faint?
18688My father?
18688My mother especially; what would she say to Daisy loving an officer in the Northern army?
18688Nevertheless the cold chill of a"What if?"
18688No, but to one whose beauty was so brilliant and whose hand was so attainable?
18688None in words; I fancied that the look of the face bore witness to some aroused attention; might it be more?
18688Not in_ any_ circumstances?"
18688Not let it trouble me?
18688Not ready for orders, Daisy?"
18688Not their being small,- or common?"
18688Now if you would only sing something else- Do n''t you know anything from Norma, or II Trovatore?"
18688Now?
18688Once he interrupted me to say,"Daisy, how do you take this that I have been telling you?"
18688Or was it the speech of the past?
18688Or_ are_ you an exception?
18688Ought I to let them know it?"
18688Our only faithful kind friend; how could I?
18688Papa smiled at me?
18688Papa was watching me, though I did not know it, and presently said very gently,-"What is it, Daisy?"
18688Papa, do n''t you enjoy it?"
18688Papa, what was that for?"
18688Pour la patrie,- does anything go before that in your mind?
18688Pray, Major Fairbairn, have the officers of the army the reputation of making good husbands and heads of families?"
18688Randolph?"
18688Randolph?"
18688Randolph?"
18688Remembering this, I put my hand in his and said a simple-"How do you do?"
18688Sandford?"
18688Sandford?"
18688Sandford?"
18688Sandford?"
18688Sandford?"
18688Sandford?"
18688Sandford?"
18688Sandford?"
18688Shall we like?
18688She took up one of my hands, looked at it, kissed it, and as she let it drop asked carelessly,-"What has become of Preston now?"
18688So many ladies walk on Pennsylvania avenue; why should his eye pick me out?
18688So what was I crying about?
18688So what was I to do?
18688So you know his family?
18688Speak, wo n''t you,-a good word for me?"
18688Still Miss Cardigan had reason; and when she repeated,"You will tell them at once?"
18688Still holding me fast, he lifted my face a little and smiling asked me, what Daisy had to say to him?
18688Suppose the whole is twice as large as it used to be?"
18688The doctor asked why?
18688The doctor walked about the room a while, talking of indifferent things; and then said suddenly,-"Do you remember old Molly Skelton?"
18688The first question is, How came we both here?"
18688The least movement now on my part might bring it to the light; what if it came?
18688The next thing, two hands were on my shoulders and a voice whispered in my ear a question,"what was the matter?".
18688The question immediately pressed itself upon our attention, where would we go?
18688Then came the question,- Daisy, what are you going to say to him, when you see him?
18688Then he has n''t lost a leg or an arm, I suppose?
18688Then if you_ liked_ somebody who was not that sort of a Christian, Daisy, you would not refuse to marry him?"
18688Then it was for my old June, and for Maria and Darry and Pete and Margaret, and all the rest of our people at Magnolia?"
18688Then keeping me in his arms and bending a brilliant inquisitive look on my face, he asked me,"Daisy- is this my Daisy, as I left her?"
18688Then suddenly I asked if he had had his breakfast?
18688Then you are not afraid lest the rebels should take Washington and confiscate the whole of us?"
18688Then you do not bid me go?"
18688Then, how long might it be, before these two armies would be ready to try another, a third tussle together?
18688Then, probably, Patterson had done no fighting?
18688This is Elisha''s fountain, is n''t it?"
18688Thursday, does your school- work end?
18688To Lausanne, is it?"
18688Very likely there was somebody to miss and mourn him; somebody at home; his mother- a young wife, perhaps-"Is Daisy tired already?"
18688Was Molly the better in anything beyond her flowers?
18688Was Mr. Thorold under my management?
18688Was her arm long enough, or her eye enough far- seeing?
18688Was it hope, or mockery?
18688Was it much of an affair?"
18688Was it only I?
18688Was it true, that Mr. Thorold, though no Christian, was following a rule of action more noble and good than I, who made such professions?
18688Was it wonderful?
18688Was it?
18688Was that it?"
18688Was there another struggle where Johnston''s forces were opposed by General Patterson?
18688Well, not being a dancing girl, what is your petition?
18688Well?"
18688Well?"
18688Were n''t you tempted?"
18688What are the walls of stone and mortar to that?
18688What are you made of?"
18688What are you talking about?"
18688What banished it, Daisy?"
18688What can equal their grace and symmetry?"
18688What chance then for Christian and me?
18688What could I do?
18688What could I say, that I had not said?
18688What could I say?
18688What could tempt me?"
18688What course did your talk take?"
18688What do you mean by patience?
18688What do you mean, Daisy?
18688What do you think of Fairfax Court- house?
18688What do you think of Southern forts garrisoned by Northern troops, and Southern cities in blockade?
18688What do you think your mother would say to it?"
18688What do you want with me?"
18688What do you wish me to do?"
18688What does Miss Randolph say?"
18688What had I lost, that I had not been without until only twelve hours before?
18688What had I lost?
18688What had I said?
18688What had eleven years wrought for her?
18688What had they all come to?
18688What has become of it?"
18688What has got a grip of your heart then, Daisy?"
18688What has happened in this poor little place, by this poor creature''s bedside, to do any good to Daisy Randolph?"
18688What has happened to you?"
18688What has taken possession of you?"
18688What has the year done to you, Daisy?"
18688What have you got on that rig for?"
18688What if Thorold were ordered down there?
18688What if a second time I should find Mr. Thorold here?
18688What if she had read that?
18688What if they were to desert you?
18688What if_ he_ should be ordered on, away from Washington somewhere, and my opportunity be lost?
18688What indeed could I have expected to gain?
18688What is grape- shot, Major Fairbairn?"
18688What is it now?"
18688What is it, my child?"
18688What is it?"
18688What is it?"
18688What is the boat which can only sail in smooth water?
18688What is the date?
18688What is the matter with the wine?
18688What is the matter, Grant?"
18688What is the matter?
18688What is the news?
18688What is the present matter in hand, Daisy?"
18688What is the sky?"
18688What is the young man''s name, Daisy?
18688What is this one, Daisy?
18688What is your mind about them?"
18688What major?"
18688What makes things insignificant?
18688What mattered, if I could only help to show papa the way?
18688What of her?"
18688What of my own fortunes?
18688What present pressure of conscience is giving you something hard to do?
18688What side is it, Daisy?"
18688What then, if I saw him?
18688What then?
18688What tidings would greet me?
18688What was I about?
18688What was I doing?
18688What was it you remembered?"
18688What was it, Grant?"
18688What was it?
18688What was it?
18688What was the matter?
18688What was the rest of it, Daisy?"
18688What were these tears for?
18688What were you going to say, major?"
18688What work is this little soldier on?"
18688What work?
18688What would you say to our, or anybody''s, holding white men in slavery- making them work without wages- and forcing them to obey under the lash?"
18688What would you tell me to do- if I were your brother?"
18688What wrong had they to complain of?"
18688What''s a man good for, when there is only half of him left?
18688What, perhaps, had Southern powder done?
18688When did you come back from Switzerland?"
18688When did you come here, Daisy?"
18688When might that be?
18688When next I had an opportunity for private talk with Mr. Thorold, he asked me with a smile, if the resentment was all gone?
18688When would it be again?
18688Where are all your admirers?"
18688Where is Aunt Randolph?"
18688Where is mamma?"
18688Where is your generosity?"
18688Which is it to be, Daisy?"
18688Which is it to be, Daisy?"
18688Which was right?
18688Who do you suppose lived here before us?"
18688Who is it that has stolen you from me?"
18688Who is it that holds the other half?"
18688Who will teach me?"
18688Why do n''t you blush, child?
18688Why should I tell them before, Miss Cardigan?"
18688Why should it not be?"
18688Why should she?
18688Why?"
18688Will it come to that?"
18688Will it take a great while, Daisy?
18688Will you go?"
18688Will you have it?"
18688Will you have- wo n''t you have- something else?
18688Will you learn your mother''s pleasure about it?
18688Will you let me go?
18688Will you not do it at my earnest request?
18688Will you speak the word?
18688Will you try?"
18688Wo n''t you, Hugh?
18688Would Mr. Thorold care?
18688Would even those be met?
18688Would fighting actually become the common news of the land?
18688Would he agree to that?
18688Would he even see me, in the first place?
18688Would n''t it be a curious scene?
18688Would the rebels attack, Washington?
18688Would you like me better if I went heart and soul into the fray at home?"
18688Would you like to go into quarters near Melbourne, for the summer?"
18688Would you not like to get out of this confused state of things, and join them there?"
18688Yet that last word of his might be true; what if it were?
18688You are never violent; do you feel as Mrs. Randolph does about it?
18688You are not afraid, Daisy, that you look at me so?
18688You are not spoiled a bit, my bairn?"
18688You are not_ afraid?_""Oh, no.
18688You can bear the truth, can not you?"
18688You do not suppose that the South can be conquered, Daisy?
18688You do not suppose_ he_ can be overcome?"
18688You know that papa and mamma do not think with me on the subject of religion?"
18688You meant to tell me that-_ some one_ has been more fortunate than I, and been beforehand with me?"
18688You think there has not been such dreadful loss of life after all?".
18688You will not have the sympathies of your father and mother, Daisy?"
18688You will not_ now_ refuse me?"
18688You would not do it?"
18688_ Do n''t_ you, Daisy?
18688_ Had_ they no officers?
18688_ You_, my Daisy?
18688and asked what?
18688and how should I get any tidings at all?
18688and how?
18688and is all over?
18688and is there any wonder so great, as that, after this, any mortal should refuse to walk that way?"
18688and more to- day than a fortnight syne?"
18688and what did she mean?
18688and what will He say to us for keeping them out of the good He died to give them?"
18688and whom did you come with?
18688and would Mr. Thorold be willing to stay permanently where inaction would be his portion?
18688are you sure?
18688do you know what that is, papa?"
18688has she not?"
18688have we stolen it?"
18688he asked me?
18688how is it ever to be made certain?
18688if the victory is sure?"
18688is it any place?"
18688is it to be whatever I ask?"
18688not for your sake, but for mine?
18688on yourself, or on somebody else?"
18688or how could I reach him?
18688or what does he mean?"
18688or what will it be when it comes?
18688said Mr. Thorold, his eyes making a brilliant commentary on my words;-"Did he carry you away from West Point for any such reason?
18688said my father, folding me in his arms-"what dangers have you discovered, Daisy?"
18688said my father; and"What, Ransom?"
18688said she laughing-"does it dismay you?"
18688said the doctor,"do n''t you know that your welfare is very dear to me?"
18688she said laughing,"what is the matter?
18688she said, lifting my chin with her forefinger and looking into my face,-"is n''t it true?
18688that is the very same thing you wore to the cadets''hop; the last hop you went to, Daisy?"
18688was his first question-"Daisy, where have you been?"
18688what is it for?"
18688what is the matter?
18688what is the matter?
18688what use?
18688what was I going to do?
18688where is Mrs. Randolph, and what brings you here?"
18688where one such thing is possible?
18688while you were out?
18688whose possible encomiums have I hit in your memory, that your cheeks are taking up the matter with such a delicious rose colour?"
18688you are- what is the matter?
18688you do not sympathise with the South?"
12229A farmhouse?
12229A horse captured from the rebels?
12229A mistake, Captain? 12229 A what?
12229About the same,I replied;"how many in your company?"
12229Again? 12229 Ai n''t this a swamp to read about?
12229All from South Carolina?
12229Allow me to walk with you?
12229Am I here yet?
12229Am I not in Aiken?
12229And I am distinct? 12229 And I have lost eight months of my life?"
12229And I need not go into their lines to do that?
12229And McClellan will win and will lose?
12229And a premium would be put upon desertion?
12229And be a spy, Jones?
12229And can you foretell the result of this war?
12229And have seen nothing?
12229And he does n''t like it now?
12229And how did you become convinced?
12229And how did you settle that?
12229And how is our friend Willis to- day?
12229And if he gets out of it, must he join the armies that are invading his State and killing his neighbours and kinsmen?
12229And if the march brings us upon the battlefield, do you not know that you will march to the battlefield?
12229And if we go around the pond first; we shall then find the picket- line?
12229And if your handwriting had not resembled that of the book, what would you have said?
12229And in your recovered state you might reverse a decision made while in a lapse?
12229And independence would have been lost?
12229And it has taken you two days to come a few miles?
12229And objects seen while in a''state''will be remembered by you when you recover?
12229And right across the river here, there are no breastworks?
12229And shall I find you here, sir?
12229And so you were in India most of the time while you were abroad?
12229And so you would settle it by letting them alone? 12229 And that I shall be I again and again?"
12229And that is error?
12229And that it was best, perhaps, that I should not think of them?
12229And that proves painful?
12229And the bottom, is it cultivated? 12229 And the facings and steps were not difficult?"
12229And their camp- fires make all that light?
12229And there are none of our men beyond this point?
12229And they will move to the right?
12229And this is the way you take care of your health, is it, by lying out in the woods in the rain?
12229And this march of Ewell and Hill seems similar to your march of last year?
12229And to our left?
12229And we can get to this edge of the felled timber?
12229And we have nobody here?
12229And what are you doing here? 12229 And what brought_ me_ here?
12229And what have I been doing for the past eight months?
12229And what is the time now?
12229And where are they?
12229And where does the right- hand lead?
12229And where is Young''s Mill?
12229And where on the 11th?
12229And where was Ewell''s corps?
12229And why should there be an army?
12229And you are firm in your opinion that I shall risk nothing by going with you?
12229And you are going to move down there?
12229And you are willing for the enemy to be reënforced?
12229And you believe the attack would have succeeded?
12229And you do not oppose it?
12229And you find yourself unable to accept the word of three men that you are not dreaming?
12229And you have been a whole day and night getting here?
12229And you know nothing of the termination of the Brown episode?
12229And you remember the order to fall back?
12229And you suppose that his order indicates the situation here?
12229And you think that is possible?
12229And you think that such a service will be at the end of my trouble?
12229And you think that the Southern people really believe their homes in danger?
12229And you think there is danger in my reporting for duty?
12229And you think they are ready to attack?
12229And you think we could have done the same thing to Hooker''s army?
12229And you want to find him and give it to him?
12229And you went to school in Bombay?
12229And you would have me renounce Dr. Khayme''s society in order to favour your hopes?
12229And your brigade?
12229And your dream was pleasant?
12229And your mind would hold to its former decision?
12229Any houses?
12229Any rebels out that way?
12229Anybody else?
12229Anything else, Jones?
12229Anything wrong?
12229Are there any breastworks below Lee''s Mill?
12229Are there any more soldiers on this side of the river?
12229Are there no Southern soldiers below Lee''s Mill?
12229Are there not two railroads at Hanover Junction, General?
12229Are there soldiers camped here?
12229Are you crazy?
12229Are you not one of Gregg''s men?
12229Are you sleepy?
12229Are you sure, Jones?
12229Are you willing to undertake a hazardous duty?
12229At about what point will my danger begin, General?
12229At what hour?
12229At what point in the action do you expect to weaken?
12229August of what year?
12229Bad?
12229Because what?
12229Beg pardon, sir; wo n''t you be so good as to send a man with me to the point from which the rebels could be seen at dark?
12229Bellot told me; what is Colonel Hamilton''s name?
12229Ben sick?
12229Blowin''? 12229 But are not the armies of the enemy strong enough to outflank any line of intrenchments that we might make?"
12229But could such an effort succeed in the face of an army like McClellan''s?
12229But could the Revolution have succeeded without the South?
12229But do you not hear the rebel artillery now?
12229But how can I be I if I do not remember? 12229 But how can a private soldier serve his country in a remarkable way?"
12229But if General Morell does not justify me, I am a rebel, and what would you do with me?
12229But if I order you to report to me?
12229But in case the rebels are on this side of the road, what shall I do?
12229But in respect to other matters than objects?
12229But may he not be deceived? 12229 But the undoubted truths, or material facts, as some people call them, would still be undoubted?"
12229But what can I do? 12229 But what else can we do?"
12229But what extra duty has Company A done, Captain?
12229But what were you doing when you were captured?
12229But what?
12229But why are you in Confederate uniform?
12229But why could I not see them in the road yonder, as they went through the field?
12229But why did you not tell me this before?
12229But why not take the whole battalion?
12229But why should I be compelled to serve?
12229But why should I have come?
12229But why should he cross with any at all? 12229 But why?"
12229But will not the proclamation cause the South to put forth greater effort?
12229But would he not have overcome Sedgwick?
12229But would not a great victory here give us peace?
12229But you do not believe the doctrine?
12229But, Jones, how can you account for the writing, which is identical? 12229 But, then, does not the misfortune of yesterday justify a change in generals?"
12229By refusing me?
12229By the lancers?
12229By the way,said he,"do you know anybody in the company?"
12229By whose authority?
12229Ca n''t you keep him a while longer?
12229Ca n''t you keep him with you as some sort of help?
12229Can I do that without some authority?
12229Can I not do both?
12229Can I reach Lee''s Mill before dark?
12229Can I see Jones, General?
12229Can a State''s duty conflict with the duty of her citizens?
12229Can a man will to do an unknown thing in the future?
12229Can not General Lee await an attack?
12229Can we get around Young''s Mill without being seen?
12229Can we not defend ourselves as long as the North, can continue a war of invasion?
12229Can you believe that General Lee would do that? 12229 Can you hold out till we find an ambulance?"
12229Can you see across it?
12229Can you think of nothing else you need?
12229Can you trust me?
12229Can you wait my answer an hour?
12229Colonel,said I,"would not a rebel spy be an idiot to come voluntarily into the Union lines dressed as I am dressed?"
12229Counting to- night?
12229Country invaded? 12229 Dat I do n''t; how is we a- gwine to hole out widout sum''hm to eat?"
12229Dat all you want to do?
12229Dat''s mighty good hitse''f; wo n''t you please, sa'', gimme a little?
12229De picket- line at Young''s Mill?
12229Den w''at you gwine do fer me?
12229Den w''at you gwine to do?
12229Did both Confederates and Union troops win the battle of Bull Run?
12229Did he reply?
12229Did he send you out?
12229Did n''t hear of no other,he replied,"I wonder what we are here for?"
12229Did n''t you come from up the road?
12229Did you ever hear of President Davis-- Jeff Davis?
12229Did you expect me to begin work to- night, General?
12229Did you go to school?
12229Did you go to the Citadel?
12229Did you have anything to eat?
12229Did you make the march under him?
12229Did you see both corps?
12229Did you see him?
12229Did you see the morning papers?
12229Did you see the other troops?
12229Did you see them men a- ridin''away from here jest now?
12229Did you see them?
12229Did you tell him that I remarked about his abrupt manner?
12229Do I need a pass?
12229Do Southern officers carry guns?
12229Do n''t you begin to feel like a Confederate?
12229Do n''t you know where the spring is?
12229Do n''t you remember that I thought of going there?
12229Do you believe in a succession of lives?
12229Do you believe that when you live again you will remember your former experiences?
12229Do you believe that your peculiar condition is what makes your sufferings?
12229Do you fear death?
12229Do you fear, too, Captain?
12229Do you go armed?
12229Do you know anything of the enemy? 12229 Do you know him when you see him?"
12229Do you know how long you were in Aiken?
12229Do you know how many divisions are under Ewell?
12229Do you know in what year you were born?
12229Do you know the way to Old Church?
12229Do you know what I asked you?
12229Do you know where we can get anything to eat to- morrow?
12229Do you know who commands them?
12229Do you like it better?
12229Do you like it?
12229Do you live in Aiken?
12229Do you mean to insist that you are not a soldier?
12229Do you mean to say that I ought not to visit the Doctor?
12229Do you mean to say that you will give me a clear field with Miss Lydia?
12229Do you mean,he repeated,"the material soil?
12229Do you object?
12229Do you recall the manner in which the United States came into existence?
12229Do you recognize me as a Union soldier, Colonel?
12229Do you remember,he asked,"the first time you came with me to the little cottage in Charleston?"
12229Do you see these men?
12229Do you think it practicable?
12229Do you think it your duty to give your best powers to your cause, or your poorest?
12229Do you think they will come back soon?
12229Do you think they would have had the moral right to coerce them?
12229Do you think you can stand it awhile longer?
12229Do you think,I asked,"that the_ Merrimac_ is so badly done up that she will not try it again?"
12229Do you vouch for him?
12229Doctor, I can not understand it at all; this talk about armies, and war, and wounds, and adjutants-- what does it all mean?
12229Doctor, are you serious?
12229Doctor, do you know that after I left you in Charleston I had a recurrence of my trouble?
12229Doctor, how in the world do you get all your information?
12229Doctor, why is it that you always say your instead of our?
12229Doctor,I asked, pausing for breath,"is there any news of Willis?"
12229Doctor,I asked,"why do you say that yesterday will prove to be the crisis of the war?"
12229Does General Hooker expect a written reply?
12229Does the road run between fences?
12229Dunno; there was more''n a thousand at first; not more''n seven or eight hundred, I reckin; how many in your''n?
12229Even in cases where not only life and liberty but honour itself must be given up or defended?
12229Even when war is forced upon us?
12229Even, the rebels?
12229Fit for duty?
12229Frank,said the Captain''s brother,"would it hurt Jones to go out of the tent for a moment?"
12229From a wounded prisoner?
12229From what place, Colonel?
12229From what states?
12229General Morell is very kind,said I;"may I know what work is required of me?"
12229Gittin''warm?
12229Go to Fortress Monroe, and avoid the crowd?
12229Go where, Doctor?
12229Going fast?
12229Going up?
12229Gone to the hospital; want to see him?
12229Gregg''s brigade-- First South Carolina, Colonel Hamilton--"How did you know that?
12229Hard on you, is he?
12229Has the Sanitary Commission such credit that your note will be accepted as a guaranty, in good form, for my return?
12229Have I told either of you what I have said to Jones about the war?
12229Have you a pencil?
12229Have you an eraser?
12229Have you another man as good as Jones?
12229Have you any idea what is the matter with this man, Sergeant?
12229Have you anything to prove that you are a Union soldier?
12229Have you ever seen him write any letters?
12229Have you ever yet heard from the hotel at Aiken?
12229Have you no potatoes? 12229 Have you noticed that?"
12229Have you seen General Ewell?
12229Have you seen General Hill in the last few days?
12229Have you seen General Lee in the last few days?
12229Have you studied the map I gave you?
12229He said that I was not well?
12229Hit''s not fur,she replied;"hain''t you never been thar?"
12229How alike and unlike?
12229How are you now, Jones?
12229How can I avoid battle?
12229How can I do it, Captain?
12229How can I have any expectation at all? 12229 How can I know that you are not deceiving me?"
12229How can a man will? 12229 How can the mind contemplate God at all?"
12229How can there be such without war as a consequence?
12229How conditionally?
12229How could they think that being neutral would defend their homes?
12229How could you know the road so well for the last ten miles of it?
12229How deep is the river above Lee''s Mill?
12229How did I get here?
12229How did I get hurt?
12229How did you hear it?
12229How did you keep them from seeing you?
12229How did you learn it? 12229 How did you suppose you received your hurt?"
12229How do you get on with that dream of yours?
12229How do you know that? 12229 How do you know they were still moving?"
12229How do you know what I surmised, Doctor?
12229How do you know?
12229How do you know?
12229How do you learn all these things, Doctor?
12229How do you spell that Persian''s name, Captain?
12229How does he like the army?
12229How far do the woods stretch beyond the road, General?
12229How far does the field extend to our right?
12229How far have you come in all?
12229How far is it to Lee''s Mill?
12229How far is it to Lee''s Mill?
12229How far is it to Young''s Mill, Nick?
12229How far is old Young''s Mill?
12229How far this side?
12229How far up the river was Lee''s infantry this morning?
12229How frequently must you report in person?
12229How is it that you are attached to General Grover and also to General Morell?
12229How is it that you are here while your regiment is still near Washington?
12229How long ago was it since you saw them?
12229How long did you stay in Paris?
12229How long have I been in this condition?
12229How long have you had it on?
12229How long will the sergeant be down?
12229How long will you be gone?
12229How long? 12229 How many brigades are in that division?"
12229How many guns?
12229How many men in your regiment?
12229How many regiments are in the brigade?
12229How many sentences did you speak then, Father?
12229How many vedettes are there? 12229 How much shall I pay you?"
12229How near can we get to the picket- line?
12229How old did you say you are?
12229How shall I get through our own pickets, General?
12229How should a lost rebel know what I know about the composition of the Union army?
12229How so, Captain?
12229How so?
12229How then do you know that he is in command?
12229How will you carry it?
12229How, then, could you ever form an opinion upon a disputed question?
12229How, then, do you know that his corps is up the river?
12229Hurt bad?
12229I asked why you did not start yesterday?
12229I beg your pardon,said I;"afraid I''m in the wrong pew; what regiment is this?"
12229I beg your pardon?
12229I came in an ace of it,he said, in a loud whisper;"why did n''t you signal sooner?"
12229I do n''t see how that could be done, Doctor; I confess that I should like very much, to go with you, but how can I get leave of absence?
12229I do n''t think such a man should have been trusted at all,said Lydia;"if he would betray his own people, why should he not betray us?"
12229I give myself enough time, do I not?
12229I have known, for a long time, Doctor, that you are opposed to war on the whole; but what was left for the North to do? 12229 I have n''t seen Miss Lydia since you left us in February,"said he;"how can I speak to her?"
12229I heard some voices,said I;"who were they?"
12229I know your case seems pretty strong; but why not give me the benefit of your knowledge? 12229 I know, I know,"said he, hastily;"and you must pardon me; but did you not urge me on?"
12229I must go now, Sergeant,said I;"can I do anything for you?"
12229I see,said I,"what is the date of that battle?"
12229I sho''do it,said Nick, heartily;"now w''at I hatto do?"
12229I should never have recognized you in that plight,said he;"what have you done with your other clothes?"
12229I suppose you have already explained at headquarters?
12229I suppose, however, there is no objection?
12229I want you to obey my orders for one day,"W''at I hatto do, mahsa?
12229If I am in your way, it is more than I know,said I;"what would you have me to do?"
12229If I were a rebel deserter, why should I not claim to be one, after having reached safety?
12229If I write, what can I say? 12229 If a man is dreaming, will a sharp pain awake him?"
12229If he should see me going, know what he''d do?
12229If the division marches and Dr. Khayme remains here, what will you do?
12229If we should gain a victory here, would not England or France recognize us?
12229In Bombay?
12229In returning shall I report to any officer I first chance to meet?
12229In the woods?
12229In what respect, Captain?
12229In what respect, Colonel?
12229In what respect?
12229In what sense, Captain?
12229Infantry?
12229Insist on what? 12229 Iron?"
12229Is he the only brother you have?
12229Is he waiting?
12229Is it not winter in Kentucky and Tennessee?
12229Is not that in keeping with what I have said about my fears?
12229Is that Colonel Lane''s?
12229Is that all you have of importance?
12229Is that my coat?
12229Is that you, Jones?
12229Is the river deep here?
12229Is the road in the woods, General?
12229It would not be wrong, then, to say that what you lose in one period you gain in another? 12229 Jones, sir; do n''t you know me?"
12229Jones,said I;"are you furnished with credentials?"
12229Jones,said he,"what will you give me for good news?"
12229K- h- a- y- y- a- m."And you pronounce it Ki- yam?
12229Know what I heerd?
12229Mahsa, how come you ai n''t got no gun?
12229Mahsa,said Nick,"is you got any''bacco?"
12229May I ask if you do not regard fear as the feeling caused by a knowledge of danger?
12229May I ask what it is that you fear?
12229May I ask what it was?
12229May I ask where you will awake?
12229May I not run foul of some man of ours sent out by one of the other brigades, General?
12229May I say a word, General?
12229Mounted?
12229My words do not imply that belief; but what does it matter which side shall win?
12229Nick,said I;"what is between us and the river in this direction?"
12229No matter what danger you run? 12229 No,"he said;"you mean the Charleston Citadel?
12229No; do you?
12229No; what do you mean?
12229No; what was it?
12229Nor to Gregg''s brigade?
12229Not even if the discussion had occurred previously to the period affected by your memory?
12229Nothing else?
12229Now,said he,"where shall we begin?
12229Oh, Frank?
12229Oh, yes; of course I shall pay you, especially if you will attend closely to what I tell you; you are to serve me till night, are you not?
12229Ought they to endure tamely?
12229Out of this what?
12229Palmetto buttons?
12229Say, Doc, how long are we goin''to be here?
12229Say, Jones, you remember that poplar log?
12229Say, Jones, you remember them straw stacks? 12229 Say, Mister, do you know whar that spring is?"
12229Say, young man,said Rhodes;"have you got a brother in the Yankee army?"
12229Say,said my companion,"why did n''t you go back on your own side?"
12229Sence sundown,said Nick,"When did you leave the breastworks?"
12229Shall I tell him that you say that?
12229Shall we call it a league? 12229 Should I have suggested it if I do not?"
12229So you have been with North Carolinians and with Georgians again?
12229So you think the Confederate lines are very strong?
12229Soldiers, you mean?
12229Southern officers carry swords and pistols,said I;"did n''t you know that, Nick?"
12229Stalks still standing?
12229Start where, General?
12229Suppose you should hear a discussion of the tariff question; would you remember it?
12229Suppose, then, that I call you Berwick hereafter?
12229Thank you, sir; any use to write the lieutenants?
12229Thankee; mahsa; dis''bacoo makes me bleeve you is a--Nick hesitated,"A what?"
12229That is all I pray for,said the Doctor;"then, what do you say of Monk?"
12229That is the way I pronounced it; is it not correct?
12229That is to say, the Colonies, or States, ratified the action of the constitutional convention?
12229That''s Captain Brown''s battery, is it not?
12229That''s true, Nick; do you know of any place where we could get an hour or two of sleep without freezing?
12229The 6th of February, you say?
12229The brigade can be easy for some time, then?
12229The cavalry?
12229The just? 12229 The letter I wrote him?
12229The men? 12229 The rebels will win and the North will win?"
12229The trees cut down in their front?
12229The twenty- second what?
12229The two States would have had some rights?
12229The whole line of the enemy?
12229Then God has no properties?
12229Then do you not agree with me that your very memory is proof that you are not double? 12229 Then do you think the States created the general government?
12229Then get back to your company at once,said I;"what is your regiment?"
12229Then if it is South Carolina''s duty to call you into military service, is it not your duty to serve?
12229Then matter is of the same nature with God?
12229Then we are at war?
12229Then we shall retreat after having gained a great victory?
12229Then what am I to do after that?
12229Then what are you doing here?
12229Then what is the test of identity, Captain?
12229Then what is there for us to do? 12229 Then what would your answer be?"
12229Then why are you reluctant?
12229Then why did you say twenty- one and twenty- second?
12229Then why do you get into my way?
12229Then why do you say eighteen fifty- nine?
12229Then why do you wear a uniform?
12229Then why go to war? 12229 Then why not fall back to the left?"
12229Then would you have me tell him that I do not want Miss Lydia?
12229Then you are going to serve again, or get out of the country?
12229Then you mean to say that God has proposed to bring slavery into existence, and war, also?
12229Then you really believe that we shall retreat?
12229Then you will keep out of my way?
12229Then you would advise immediate retreat?
12229Then, about your dream theory,said the Captain;"would you object to my asking if you have ever had such a dream-- so vivid and so long?"
12229Then, first, what is rebellion?
12229Then, might not one say that the only dream you are conscious of is not a dream?
12229Then, supposing that I find the rebels in force at Hanover Court- House, would there be any need for me to go on to the Junction?
12229Then, who are you?
12229Then, why did you hide from them?
12229Then, you admit at last that rebellion, and consequently war, are necessary?
12229Then,roared the general,"then why the hell did you take so long to tell it?"
12229There is fear and fear,said he;"how would you like for me to test you now?"
12229There is no better man than Jones; you want only two?
12229There was a quarrel?
12229They are on the other side of the field,said he,"How wide is the field?"
12229Thirty- eight and twenty- one make how much?
12229This condition? 12229 This is not the Seventh, is it?"
12229This morning, sir, before daylight"You say that a movement was in progress?
12229Those who are able to march? 12229 Throw this paper away if you meet any rebels; understand?"
12229To McClellan?
12229To test me?
12229Two?
12229Up at what Point?
12229Up what river?
12229Very well, General; how long do you expect me to be gone?
12229W''at dat job you talkin''''bout, mahsa?
12229W''at dat you gwine to say, mahsa?
12229W''at fur you gwine up de road, mahsa?
12229W''at you want me to go wid you fer? 12229 W''ich Young''s Mill?"
12229Wait for what?
12229Was Brooks from Aiken?
12229Was it so in Washington''s case?
12229Was it the correct practice?
12229Was that seriously thought of?
12229We must not waste time, then,he said;"who accompanies you?"
12229We''s gittin''mos''to Worrick; ef we gits up to de place, den w''at you gwine to do?
12229Well, General,said I,"what''s in the wind this time?"
12229Well, General?
12229Well, I dunno about that; how many men in your''n?
12229Well, John G. Barnwell is the first lieutenant in Company H. Do you know of the Rhetts?
12229Well, are you ready to listen?
12229Well, does the wind sit there?
12229Well, if that is the case, why do we let our wooden ships remain here?
12229Well, my friend, how is it now?
12229Well, then, what did they surrender? 12229 Well, what do you think of this?"
12229Well, wher''s your water?
12229Well, why do n''t you tell your captain to let you go back?
12229Well,said he,"how do you like doing nothing?"
12229Well; what then?
12229Well; what then?
12229Well?
12229Were you in Lee''s campaigns last year?

12229Who were the soldiers who rode by just now?
12229Who, me?
12229Who, me?
12229Who, me?
12229Who_ are_ you, sir?
12229Whose army?
12229Why a new general? 12229 Why can you not?"
12229Why did n''t you let that Confederate, whom you found behind the log, come with you?
12229Why did you hesitate? 12229 Why did you not start yesterday, sir?"
12229Why do n''t you answer me, sir?
12229Why do n''t you buy your own tobacco?
12229Why do n''t you have a company of cavalry to do this work for you, General?
12229Why do n''t you write?
12229Why do you ask such a question?
12229Why do you call my infirmity a peculiar power?
12229Why do you call your peculiar power an infirmity?
12229Why do you hesitate?
12229Why do you refer to the Citadel battalion?
12229Why do you say so, Doctor?
12229Why do you say superstitious?
12229Why do you suppose so, Doctor?
12229Why does he not advance now?
12229Why not to McClellan? 12229 Why not to her?"
12229Why not, since it is true?
12229Why not?
12229Why old?
12229Why send you to General Morell?
12229Why should I go by Old Church?
12229Why should I go out?
12229Why should I not also wear Confederate uniform?
12229Why should I think? 12229 Why should you hesitate to do so?"
12229Why should you think so, Doctor?
12229Why so?
12229Why so?
12229Why, you will see Willis; will you be in his ward?
12229Why? 12229 Why?"
12229Why?
12229Will you let me see the diary?
12229Willis,said I,"I think I''d better not undertake this job; suppose I get the ball out, who knows that that will be better for you?
12229With England?
12229Would it not be well to have an intermediate man between me and our picket- line?
12229Would it not require a succession of great victories for that? 12229 Would n''t it have been strange if I had gone with them, and somebody had recognized me?"
12229Would you think that the States had formed a partnership for the general good of all?
12229Yes, Doctor,"Can I help in any way?
12229Yes, before the army moves; this is your written authority to go with me; do n''t you want to go?
12229Yes, you; what are you doing here?
12229Yes, you; what is your name?
12229Yes-- of course; did your old servant go too?
12229Yes; but have you shown that it is her duty to make me serve?
12229Yes; have n''t you?
12229Yes; why did you run and hide?
12229Yes; you say you are in South Carolina?
12229Yes? 12229 Yes?
12229Yet,he continued,"to doubt it you must be making some theory of your own; what is it, please?"
12229You Southern officer, mahsa?
12229You alarm me more than ever; do you mean to say that the South will win?
12229You allude to your memory?
12229You are Private Berwick?
12229You are able to write your own letters?
12229You are beginning to understand that many things have happened since you were in Aiken?
12229You are putting it very strongly, Doctor; can there be no exception to rules?
12229You are right, sir; do you remember that?
12229You are sure it was Ewell''s whole corps?
12229You believe in the right to revolt against tyranny?
12229You believe the war will result in the destruction of slavery?
12229You can imagine situations in which, hearing is of greater value than sight?
12229You can trust me?
12229You do n''t belong to Gregg''s regiment?
12229You do not sleep readily?
12229You dunno who dey is, mahsa?
12229You fear that you will fear?
12229You find the manual difficult?
12229You have kept your eyes on the stretch, in front?
12229You have? 12229 You insist on belonging to the-- what regiment did you say?"
12229You know about my case?
12229You know headquarters?
12229You know something of Charleston?
12229You know where the old field is?
12229You like your company?
12229You may have everything you want; as many men as you want, mounted or afoot; can you start to- morrow morning, Berwick?
12229You mean as to thought?
12229You mean dem Southern sojers?
12229You mean dem dat''s do fust a- gwine_ up_ de road, or dem dat''s fust a- comin''_ down_ de road?
12229You mean for me to believe that eighteen fifty- nine has all gone?
12229You mean the regiment with the blue flag?
12229You mean the twenty- first?
12229You mean to say that you can get me leave of absence?
12229You mean''long here?
12229You not a- gwine to gimme dat yudda dolla''?
12229You refuse?
12229You remember the position to which the four companies advanced as skirmishers?
12229You said you could trust me,he replied;"why should I deceive you?
12229You say the army? 12229 You seem to hesitate, Berwick,"said the general;"what is wrong?"
12229You smile then at unpleasant things?
12229You think fighting more dangerous than scouting?
12229You think, then, that the United States must exist always?
12229You understand why we advance in this manner?
12229You wanted to say good- by to somebody?
12229You were at Newport News on day before yesterday?
12229You will see Willis?
12229You wo n''t give me away?
12229You would not like a commission?
12229You?
12229Your name is Jones?
12229*****"So we have come down to date, Doctor?"
12229... Had he seen me?
12229... Had the rebels, if indeed they were rebels, seen him?
12229... Why was he there?
12229A compact?
12229A confederacy?"
12229A federation?
12229A man perhaps who knew something of the sayings in the Southern army?
12229A man told you?"
12229A nation that will not preserve itself, how can it exist?
12229A question arose in my mind-- and again I thought of the Captain: Am I angry with that man?
12229A rebel or a Federal?
12229Acknowledge the right of secession?
12229Actually?
12229After a while I asked:"Why is it that we do not move?
12229Again I spoke,"Gentlemen, is that Ramseur''s North Carolina brigade?"
12229Again I spoke,"Will you please tell me what brigade that is?"
12229All at once I dropped the C. I had failed to add to the bare initial-- nothing in my thought could follow that C. Why had I held the C so long?
12229Am I clear?"
12229Am I not right, Aleck?"
12229Am I so overcome with fear that I can not speak to a man who flees and hides?
12229And I hear Jones ask,"What is your name?"
12229And Lydia?
12229And is the doctrine of State rights wrong?
12229And is union wrong?
12229And it seemed no less strange to know that thus far I had not thought of home, than to find that I did not know a home,"Where is your home?"
12229And now I recall that the Doctor had told me to write in the little book.... What was his purpose?
12229And now a new doubt-- why in a tent and without uniform?
12229And now he was dead?
12229And then, to kill men-- was that preferable to being killed?
12229And then, too, how could you know that I was on such a part of the battlefield, and that Willis was hurt and that I was with him?"
12229And what in me was he arguing against?
12229And what is this thing that we call the country?
12229And why Knight?
12229And why should I be with them?
12229Another and puzzling thought: How should I know Willis-- a Yankee soldier?
12229Another voice shouted loud,"What army do you belong to?"
12229Are you a patriot?"
12229Are you fully recovered?"
12229Are you hurt badly?
12229Are you not sure that you think?"
12229Are you ready?"
12229As we were returning to the hospital, the doctor asked me seriously,"You insist that your name is Jones Berwick?"
12229At length I asked,"But why do you imagine their uniforms and flags alike?"
12229At length, he asked,"What''s that for?"
12229At what moment should I strike the line of Confederate pickets?
12229Berwick?"
12229Both?
12229Boys all right?"
12229But am I now free?
12229But can I stand the day of battle?
12229But can you make up your mind to accept the situation as it is, and bear up in the hope that you will come right in the end?"
12229But could I not have clothed myself at once as a Union soldier, so that there would have been no need of desertion?
12229But did I ever have such a nightmare before?
12229But did I not see the strange man break his gun and go away from the spot?
12229But do not all cowards feel just that way before the trial comes?
12229But for what?
12229But how about slavery?"
12229But how can you expect me to kill men when I know nothing of the merits of the cause for which I am told to fight?"
12229But how could I know that Jones was now alive?
12229But how could I make a statement?
12229But how could I tell him?
12229But how many men were in the brigade?
12229But how to find more?
12229But if our enemies come upon us, must we not fight?
12229But is it not more likely that he was deceived in me?
12229But killing, is it not crime?
12229But suppose some man asks you what regiment you belong to-- what can you say?
12229But suppose you are asked your regiment, and give an appropriate answer, and then are asked for your captain''s name-- what can you say?
12229But suppose you dream on; what will be the result?"
12229But the mind, is it not divine?
12229But the other Jones asks also,"Do n''t you know me?"
12229But to lie still if my companion was a friend to the rebels?
12229But what can I say?
12229But what could I expect from my companion?
12229But what matter?
12229But what one?
12229But what prevented my being surprised from the woods on my left?
12229But why absurd?
12229But why could I not have joined it as a recruit?
12229But why did Willis relent?
12229But why did not I speak?
12229But why do I not speak?
12229But why do I talk of letters?
12229But why does the Doctor associate with Willis, who is distinctly a Federal soldier, and with Jones, who is sometimes a Federal?
12229But why is it that I can not recall my first service as a Confederate?
12229But why is it that you say both sections are right?
12229But why kill the body in order to spread, or even to maintain, the truth?
12229But why reason thus, as though we still had choice?
12229But why should he fear me, when, he could not doubt that I was hiding from the same persons whom he had shunned to meet?
12229But why were we making such short marches?
12229But why?
12229But would he not know that the information I should take to the Confederates would be worth many men?
12229But would not a man walking hither and thither in the night be accosted by some one?
12229But, another thought-- why should the Doctor have been willing for me to suffer so?
12229But, do you not agree with, me that inactivity would have been best?
12229But, had I lent myself to a course which had cheated Dr. Khayme?
12229But, in any case, what would you do if you were not forced into service?"
12229But, in that case, would not the timber be a protection rather than a hindrance to the enemy advancing or stealing forward?
12229But, supposing that I have people and land-- what is the country for which we fight?
12229But, was the Doctor a Confederate?
12229But... was there a hotel?
12229But_ had_ they come to a halt?
12229By means of bayonets?
12229Ca n''t we wait?"
12229Can I believe it?
12229Can I decide that neither of two opposite things can be true?
12229Can I not recall the Doctor without this disturbing shape?
12229Can I sign a letter asking an unknown man to tell me who I am?"
12229Can he put thoughts into my mind?
12229Can he tell me who I am?
12229Can it be possible, after all, that my name is B. Jones?
12229Can it be that the Doctor knew I was a Confederate and wished to help me return to my people?
12229Can it mean any more than that you were known at one time as Jones Berwick and at another time as Berwick Jones?
12229Can such a condition be?
12229Can this man and these men and this tent and this pain all be real?
12229Can you get a messenger here?"
12229Can you hesitate?"
12229Can you not determine that you will do what you are ordered to do?
12229Can you predict our next movement?"
12229Captain Haskell?
12229Cheeseman''s?"
12229Could Dr. Khayme have had such, affection for me that he would do violence to his own sentiments for my sake?
12229Could General Lee hope that Meade, with Pope''s example staring him in the face, would allow himself to be entrapped?
12229Could I hope to remain long between vedettes and pickets?
12229Could I not at once have named my original company and its officers?
12229Could I not go back to the vedettes, and talk to either the right or the left man of the connecting line?
12229Could I not post myself as a Confederate vedette between the connecting men?
12229Could any success atone for so much disaster?
12229Could he be a brother?
12229Could he fear that I was wanting to take him into the Southern lines?
12229Could he think I was a log?
12229Could it be possible that he saw more than I could see?
12229Could we leave our wounded here?"
12229Did I know who I was, or where I had been, or where I had not been?
12229Did he not think me a Union soldier?
12229Did he think it out of place, now that he knew I was not a Southern soldier?
12229Did the Doctor know that?
12229Did the States create the Federal government, or did the people of the whole United States, acting as a body- politic, create it?"
12229Did they become provinces?
12229Did they surrender the right of resistance to usurpation?"
12229Did you ever see the likes o''mosquitoes?"
12229Did you expect to be in two places at once?"
12229Did you never hear the name of Barnwell?"
12229Did you not know on yesterday that Lee was moving?
12229Divine power?
12229Do I feel any hatred of him?
12229Do I not refuse your offer for the purpose of concealing my fear?"
12229Do n''t you hear it?
12229Do n''t you remember the hot march?"
12229Do n''t you see that all the lower part of the leaf has been torn off?
12229Do not the Federal soldiers also think their cause just?
12229Do you belong to the Citadel battalion?"
12229Do you expect me to accept that?"
12229Do you feel free to undertake it for us?"
12229Do you hear the singing in the air?
12229Do you intend to run away when we get into battle?"
12229Do you know that you have been unconscious?"
12229Do you know the men of the company?"
12229Do you mean the idea symbolized by everything that constitutes American civilization?
12229Do you mean the people of the United States, including those of the seceded States?
12229Do you place force as something intermediate between God and matter?"
12229Do you remember it?"
12229Do you see?"
12229Do you still doubt it?"
12229Do you think it should be consistent throughout, or should there be strong intrinsic proof of its own unrealness?"
12229Do you think that South Carolina should allow any of her citizens to leave her in this crisis?"
12229Does he see me lying here?
12229Does not such manoeuvre meet your view?
12229Doubtless we shall march, to- morrow; have you not decided that you will march with us?"
12229Eighteenth of what?"
12229Even supposing that most men are led in their beliefs by other men in whose judgment they have confidence, are the leaders of either side impure?
12229Even while I was thinking this, he said,"What''ll you take to boot''twixt your canteen and mine?"
12229Except Fort Donelson, where has there been a great victory?"
12229Few men are cowards, but was I not one of a few?
12229For so many stricken homes?
12229For widows, orphans, poverty, ruin?
12229From whom?
12229Frost and my brother and I are mere creatures of your fancy?"
12229Frost had called Bellot, asked,"Where is the regiment?"
12229Frost,"do you believe that you can fill in the details from what you can remember of what I said?"
12229Frost,"do you still think your name is Jones Berwick?"
12229Frost;"now what do you want to do with all that?"
12229General Lee''s army?"
12229General Meade said,"Doctor, do you know this man?"
12229Got any water in your canteen?"
12229Had I been following a delusion?
12229Had I been told so?
12229Had I crossed here in the morning?
12229Had I ever been a spy?
12229Had I ever deserted?
12229Had a tide of war flowed over me while I slept?
12229Had all but one been ordered to preserve silence, and was this one an expert chosen to entrap me?
12229Had he brought a light?
12229Had he found pretended desertion necessary?
12229Had he seen the horse by day?
12229Had he told me so?
12229Had it taken me two hours to crawl from the line of vedettes to this edge of the swamp?
12229Had not the Doctor spoken to me of this very subject?
12229Had this suggestion been made before the fact?
12229Had we done all that we could?
12229Had_ he_ told me so?
12229Harley?
12229Has anybody the least idea that the whites of the South would tolerate the new dignity of their former slaves?
12229Has anything been learned as to the Fourth South Carolina?"
12229Has my fevered brain but conjured up a picture, or series of pictures, of events that never had existence?
12229Have I not argued myself into a less readiness to kill?
12229Have we gone wrong?"
12229Have you been sick?"
12229Have you had a good rest?"
12229Have you imagined that now, while you are a Confederate again, there is also a you in the Yankee army?
12229Have you learned how our company came out?"
12229Have you lost interest in it?"
12229Have you not already seen more than one Southern home destroyed?"
12229He and I were allies?
12229He got near to Haskell--"Who_ are_ you?"
12229He has resolved all doubt; I am still enchained to a fate that drags me on and on into... into what?
12229He knew it?
12229He knew of my presence, yet he did not speak; what was the matter with him?
12229He said, at an ordinary pitch, but very gruffly,"Who_ are_ you, anyhow?"
12229He said,"Are you easier?"
12229He smiled at this; then he asked, still smiling,"Where is your regiment?"
12229He stops and looks at the wagon; I see a man get out of the wagon-- a very small man; the man says,"Is that you, Jones?"
12229He was opposed to war, and would take no part in it; was he indifferent in regard to the success of the Federals?
12229He, too, a spy?
12229Hear it?
12229Hear it?
12229Hill''s division-- Gregg''s brigade-- what is General Gregg''s name?"
12229How am I to know that you are telling me the truth?"
12229How can I avoid being captured, and brought before the officers as a rebel?
12229How can I make them believe?
12229How can he know that his resolution will not weaken in the time of trial?"
12229How can you expect a man, who is supremely interested in a small incident, to think it small?
12229How could I be sure that in the moonlight I could tell black from brown, or black from bay?
12229How could I keep the Doctor quiet?
12229How could I know that this scene in the tent was not the sequence of the scene of the bursting shell?
12229How could I know this?
12229How could I know what to say to a party of Confederates?
12229How could a Federal know the road so well that he had gone over it at full speed, never hesitating, never deflecting into a wrong course?
12229How could he, reputed so good, give such orders?
12229How could that be?
12229How did I ever become Jones Berwick?
12229How did I ever get to be Berwick Jones?
12229How did I get hurt?"
12229How did the lieutenant know?
12229How did you get my name reversed?"
12229How did you happen to get him?"
12229How do you happen to know that the colonel of the Eleventh Massachusetts is named Blaisdell?"
12229How far had the rebels gone?
12229How far to the end?
12229How had it come?
12229How had the black horse passed on?
12229How long had I been dreaming?
12229How many?"
12229How thick are they?"
12229How to get through the picket- line ahead of me?
12229How wide was the gap?
12229How, then, could I deceive him?
12229I am Jones Berwick and I am Berwick Jones?
12229I am going to count three-- understand?"
12229I am going to take steps to prevent your becoming ill.""How can you explain my absence, Doctor?"
12229I asked,"Whose picket is that?"
12229I asked;"and God has the properties of matter?"
12229I attempted appropriate laughter, and asked,"Where is Suffolk?"
12229I beg to ask if Dr. Khayme, of the Sanitary Commission, is with the army?"
12229I called to him,"Where is the company?"
12229I counted again,--one, two, three, four, five,_ six_; how is that?
12229I cried;"what will become of the country?"
12229I demanded, in a stern voice;"why are you not with your regiment?"
12229I exclaimed;"what year is this?"
12229I felt greatly encouraged with Khayyam,--pronounced Ki- yam,--which had the K sound, and in form had the h. But was there nothing more in Knight?
12229I had known the Captain since I had known the Doctor; where had I known the Doctor?
12229I had seen it in my dream... then I was not yet awake?
12229I have a father?
12229I must hunt this Jones down-- where have I known a Jones?
12229I remembered his opinions... he was a disbeliever in war... why, then, was he in the army?
12229I said, did I not, that rebellion does not necessarily bring war?"
12229I sharpened a reed and introduced its point into the wound; an obstacle was met at once-- but how to get it out?
12229I spoke again,"Gentlemen, is that the picket of Ramseur''s brigade?"
12229I suppose you are a doctor?"
12229I suppose you think you are going to stay with me several days?"
12229I think you are now convinced that there is a war?"
12229I thought I could perceive his idea, and I added in an instant:"Do n''t you know that troops have come up in the night?
12229I thought of Captain Haskell''s quotation from some Persian poet; what was the poet''s name?
12229I thought-- Virgil Harley?
12229I was still dreaming?
12229I will even say that my service as a Confederate was a small price to pay... what had the Doctor said?
12229I?
12229I_ must_ fight for Southern homes-- for_ my_ home; but could I stand up with my comrades in the peril of battle?
12229If Captain Haskell had ever known Dr. Khayme, should I not have heard him speak of the Doctor?
12229If I discharge him, what will he do?
12229If I tell you something to relieve your fears, will you promise me to go to sleep?"
12229If K was so prominent, why had Payne influenced me?
12229If both, which followed the other?
12229If he may move an inch, how far may he move?
12229If he was one of theirs, should I lie still?
12229If memory is necessary, you have lost your personality; but you have a personality,--permit me to say a strong one,--and whose have you taken?"
12229If not, what sort of men are they?
12229If so, were they pursuing him?
12229If so, what was he, too, doing in the Federal camp?
12229If that was our picket, why should there be another in rear of it?
12229If the condition may prove useful, why change it?"
12229If the horsemen were Union troops, what then?
12229If we drive back the enemy, shall I be free?
12229If we ought not to stay here, and ought not to advance on Washington, and ought not to retreat, what other course is possible?"
12229If you intended to be of service to us, why did you delay?"
12229In front were black spots in the wheat-- five paces apart--- a picket- line-- whose?
12229Infantry?"
12229Institutions?
12229Is crime better than submission?
12229Is danger better than suspense concerning danger?"
12229Is everybody to be named Jones?
12229Is everything clear to you now?"
12229Is he living?"
12229Is he yet alive?
12229Is he yet with the army?
12229Is it a body of men?
12229Is it a field?"
12229Is it in order to claim that he has captured me?
12229Is it material?
12229Is it not absurd for a small army of a weak nation to invade a great nation in the face of more powerful armies?
12229Is it that I have heard this story?
12229Is it that Willis was made prisoner that day-- he and his companion, there in the woods?
12229Is that a reason?
12229Is that all?"
12229Is there any true Jones?
12229Is there anything about it to betray me?"
12229It did not seem wrong, but deficient rather; something was needed to complete it-- what was that something?
12229It seemed like the place of... had I dreamed?
12229It seems so-- but why?
12229JONES?
12229James Butler?
12229John Brown?
12229Joining the Confederates?"
12229Jones is with the Doctor in a tent at night, and they are getting ready-- getting ready for what?
12229Jones-- Jones-- where have I known a man named Jones?
12229Jones?
12229Just because I can not get rid of him?
12229Khayme?"
12229Khayme?"
12229Khayme?"
12229Land?
12229Marched past--""What brigade was that you saw at Hanover Court- House?"
12229May I ask if you remember reading of such subjects?"
12229May you not be deceived in him?
12229McClellan is well enough, I suppose; but what has McDowell done to deserve this?"
12229Merely the ground with which the soles of his feet are in touch?
12229Might I not expect a challenge at any moment?
12229Millions of men are joined together to perpetrate wrong while believing that they are right?
12229Momentarily I expected either of them to blurt out,"Where are you from?"
12229More so than Lydia?
12229Must we submit?
12229My friend of the black horse?"
12229My head was paining me, then, because I had been hurt?
12229Myself?
12229Neither?
12229No doubt I could do this; but what should I gain?
12229No other regiment?"
12229No such thing could occur twice just at the critical time... unless... some power, mysterious and profound.... What was Dr. Khayme in all this?
12229No; submission is better than crime But is not submission also a crime?
12229Nothing?
12229Nothing?
12229Now, I had wit enough to observe that the Doctor had not said"I am glad,"but"I shall be glad,"and I asked,"Do_ you_ think I am wrong in health?"
12229Now, can you not see that what you fear is men''s opinions rather than danger?
12229Now, had the Doctor been able to read the future?
12229Now, in an effort to bring things to a pass, I shouted loud,"What army do you belong to?"
12229Of course hidden near by I could see that Willis was a sergeant; but how could I know that his name was Willis?
12229Of course you could not recognize your own work in the lettering?"
12229Often, when waiting for troops to pass, you would ask,"What regiment is that?"
12229Oh, you mean by myself?"
12229On him falls the burden?
12229On the stock were carved the letters J.B. Who had owned this gun?
12229Once was at the time of the battle of Fredericksburg; but when and where was the other?
12229One mind in two bodies?
12229Or, if I was awake, maybe I had not dreamed?
12229Orders from whom?
12229Our Captain dead?
12229Our camp was never moved once; what have you been doing?"
12229People?
12229Possibly he had used other words, but his speech sounded to me as if he said,"What edge are you?"
12229Put yourself in a hole, and raise your head until your eyes are an inch, or two above the surface of ground almost level-- what can you see?
12229Refused to strike a traitor?
12229Rätions?
12229Said he,"You would never reach your company; where is it, by the way?"
12229Say, Berwick, do you know the new drill?"
12229Say, Berwick, what''s this I hear about your being detailed for special work?"
12229See them?
12229Shall I ever forget that moment of dismay and anguish?
12229Shall I give you that test?"
12229Should I cross this road?
12229Should I ever hear the last of it?
12229Should he not have pressed Hooker into the river before giving attention to Sedgwick[8]?"
12229Should you not wish to end this miserable affair as quickly as possible?"
12229So far as I know, I have never given the Confederates the information gained from the Yankees: why?
12229So you went to India?"
12229Something formed by the people for their supposed good, a growth, a development-- a development of what?
12229Submit to insult?
12229Submit to the loss of all Federal property in the Southern States?
12229Suddenly he says, without looking back at me,"Say, Johnny, what made you quit?"
12229Suddenly he says,"You are coming over to us?"
12229Suddenly light comes; I know that the letter was signed Jones Berwick, Sr. From what place was it written?
12229Tamely endure without resentment the attack on Sumter?"
12229That look of care-- or worse than care, anxiety-- could it be mere fancy?
12229The Northern idea of social freedom, unconscious and undeveloped, must prevail instead of the Southern idea of individual freedom; but how prevail?
12229The cabin, no doubt, was deserted; but if it were occupied, what should I fear?
12229The doctor turned to me and said,"How do you feel now, Jones?"
12229The first, namely, that the Doctor is a Confederate, is untrue; the second, namely, that I deceived him, is untrue: what is a possible third?
12229The man, said,"You feel better now, do n''t you?"
12229The mind of the world affects every individual mind... where did I hear such an idea advanced?
12229The only serious question which my mind could raise upon the conduct of the South was: Had we sufficiently tried to avert war?
12229The picket- line doubtless reached the road, or very near it, and bent back; but how far back?
12229The relief came, and I went back to the picket- line and took my place near the right of Company H. What next?
12229The sun would soon warm us; but what were we to do for food?
12229The surgeons told me that I could get a furlough; but what did I want with a furlough?
12229The tempting offer was accepted at once; the man rose and said,"What is it you say I''m to tell him?"
12229The varying fortune of each separate field, The fierce that vanquish, and the faint that yield?"
12229Then I returned to Allen, and speaking low I asked him,"What do you think that skirt of felled timber means?"
12229Then I thought of General Lee; what force could it be that sustained_ him_ at this moment?
12229Then President Davis is responsible for all this?
12229Then another thought-- had the Yankees selected one man to reply to me?
12229Then crime must be opposed by crime?
12229Then he asked,"What did you write?"
12229Then he said,"Can you eat some breakfast?"
12229Then he said,"Can you remember how many states compose the United States?"
12229Then he said,"You think you are in South Carolina?"
12229Then must I conclude that the North, believing itself right, is wrong in warring upon the South?
12229Then the thought came suddenly-- why not Jones Berwick?
12229Then why fight?
12229Then why should he think that additional effort-- the diary-- was required to make Confederates believe a Confederate a Confederate?
12229Then, may both North, and South be right?
12229Then, too, the question came to me what would General Morell do in case my refusal was final?
12229Then, what is a man''s post?
12229They were Yankees; but why did they not say something?
12229This view explains-- but how can I grant the impossible?
12229This was increasing, I thought; to encourage him to proceed, I asked,"Why do you wish to know?"
12229To avoid the crime of submission we must commit the crime of killing?
12229To deceive the enemy in case I should be taken?
12229To deceive the enemy so fully that he would be received everywhere as one of them?
12229To go home?
12229Under these circumstances, what is the duty of a citizen of South Carolina?"
12229Volunteered?"
12229W''at I hatto do?"
12229WHO GOES THERE?
12229WHO GOES THERE?
12229WHO?
12229Was Jones two?
12229Was he not attending to Jones, sick in a tent?
12229Was he willing for me to go back to the Confederate army?
12229Was it because Khayyam was a poet?
12229Was it because he was a Persian?
12229Was it because of the peculiar spelling of the name?
12229Was it even that?
12229Was it known to everybody at school that you were from the North?"
12229Was it through fear?"
12229Was she all fancy?
12229Was that his daughter who came in here last night?"
12229Was the Doctor a surgeon?
12229Was there no Dr. Khayme, after all, and worse than that, no Lydia?
12229Was this the messenger who had outstripped me at the start?
12229We sat down to supper,"Doctor,"said I,"how can you be so calm?"
12229Well, what does that show but that he is deceived?
12229Well, what of that?
12229Were the rebel vedettes in this felled timber?
12229Were they from the Captain?
12229Were they our men, or rebels?
12229Were we making for Washington?
12229Were you hoping to find one of your old personal friends?"
12229What are the limits?
12229What are they doing up on the hill?
12229What are we doing here?"
12229What are you driving at?"
12229What are you to General Morell?"
12229What army?
12229What brigade did General Grover command?
12229What brigade is yours?"
12229What can General Lee do to- morrow but attack?
12229What can I say?
12229What care they for us?
12229What could be in the mind of General Lee to make him consent to such sacrifice?
12229What could it mean?
12229What could this unarmed man be doing in the gully?
12229What day of the month is this?"
12229What did I tell you?
12229What district?"
12229What do the men know of such things?"
12229What do they mean by fighting down there?
12229What do you say of Jeroboam and the ten tribes?"
12229What does he think now of slavery?
12229What does it mean?
12229What does it mean?
12229What does the Captain think now?
12229What does the future hold for me?
12229What effect on the general result to nations and the world does one battle, more or fewer, have?"
12229What else can you suggest?"
12229What had become of all these generals?
12229What had happened to him after that?
12229What if the name was a very unusual name, one, in fact, that I had never heard, or seen written, except as the name of this Doctor?
12229What if, to- morrow morning, we should see a line of gray pickets in our front?
12229What interest had they in me or I in them?
12229What is Jones to me?
12229What is a government?
12229What is an institution?
12229What is he thinking about, that he does n''t do something?
12229What is he?
12229What is it that sustains General Lee?
12229What is it you want to tell?"
12229What is it, then?
12229What is land?
12229What is that I see through the trees?
12229What is that confusion up on the hill?
12229What is that third alternative?
12229What is the North fighting for?
12229What is the South, fighting for?
12229What is the field hospital?
12229What is to defend Washington?
12229What matter where?
12229What more need I know?
12229What part or lot have I with these others?
12229What plan?
12229What regiment do you belong to?"
12229What regiment?"
12229What relation, if any, could there be between the Captain and the Doctor?
12229What relationship had these two men?
12229What shall I do?
12229What shall I say to the boys for you?"
12229What should I do and say when I should reach our men?
12229What should I do when we reached the line?
12229What then?
12229What to do with myself?
12229What to do?
12229What was I to him?
12229What was I?
12229What was expected of them?
12229What was he going to do?
12229What was his name?
12229What was in this thicket?
12229What was it torn off for?
12229What was its peculiarity?
12229What was the peculiarity?
12229What was the secret of the influence which the spot held over me?
12229What was the weather when I started that night?
12229What was this new and strange knowledge?
12229What were they planning?
12229What will connect the past me with the present me?
12229What will they think of me?
12229What would Dr. Khayme have said of Willis''s influence?
12229What would become of me if the war should end suddenly?
12229What would become of them?
12229What would the possession of such power imply?
12229What would you have us do?"
12229What''ll we do with, him then?--turn him loose?
12229What, then?
12229What, to me, was this captain?
12229When and where_ had_ I heard it?
12229When do you start?"
12229When he was nearer, he asked,"Do you know where Gregg''s brigade is?"
12229When was that?"
12229When was this road used?
12229Where and what was my original regiment?
12229Where did Hill''s corps camp on the night of the 8th?"
12229Where had I known him first?
12229Where had there ever been such an experience?
12229Where is Fredericksburg?
12229Where is Willis now?"
12229Where is my father?
12229Where is the Doctor?"
12229Where is the trouble?
12229Where was I?
12229Where was I?
12229Where was it that you knew him?"
12229Where was the picket- line to which ours must connect?
12229Where were they ever?
12229Where were they now?
12229Where?
12229Where?
12229Which branch should I take?
12229Which course should I take-- the safe course, or the possible speedy course?
12229Which is it?
12229Which of the two incidents was true?
12229Which of these two things is true?
12229Which was I at first?
12229Who am I?
12229Who are they?
12229Who could be riding fast this night?
12229Who could be riding south this night?
12229Who could know, after all, that there were no exceptions amongst slaves?
12229Who deciphers them?"
12229Who else would be riding fast down this road?
12229Who had ever thought that he might be killed?
12229Who is Willis?
12229Who is he?
12229Who is he?
12229Who is in charge of the hospital?"
12229Who is my father?
12229Who is the true Jones?
12229Who knows but that the relation of mind with mind is the relation of unity?
12229Who was he?
12229Who was he?
12229Who was he?
12229Who was it?
12229Who was she?
12229Who was the Man?
12229Who was this man?
12229Who were the men of my company?
12229Who were these men?
12229Why Kinney?
12229Why Knight?
12229Why clear?
12229Why could I not find a different occupation?
12229Why could I not see that before-- with the stripes on his arm?
12229Why could not this war have been avoided?
12229Why did I not follow that clew?
12229Why did he sometimes wear a blue uniform?
12229Why did not the pickets on the other side of this gap search for us?
12229Why do you not prove that they are both wrong?
12229Why do you not speak to Miss Lydia and her father?
12229Why does he want the gun?
12229Why had I at first assumed that he had been wounded only?
12229Why had I conceived absolutely that this rider was a Federal?
12229Why had I not thought of that expedient?
12229Why had the men gone into this gully?
12229Why has he not found me?
12229Why not brown?
12229Why not climb?
12229Why not end this matter one way or the other?"
12229Why not let the South, secede peaceably?
12229Why not?
12229Why risk possible failure with a single man?"
12229Why should I be here?"
12229Why should I be interested in this broken gun?
12229Why should I join these men?
12229Why should I think of such a possibility?
12229Why should Jones be alive?
12229Why should he help Willis?
12229Why should he ride so fast to the rear?
12229Why should one Jones be glad that another Jones was caught?
12229Why should so many wagoners be sick at once?
12229Why should there be regiments?"
12229Why should they die?
12229Why should you suppose so?"
12229Why this child''s play of the diary?
12229Why was the black horse returning?
12229Why?
12229Why?
12229Why?
12229Why?
12229Will not my conscience force me to be a coward?
12229Will the enemy take our people, and take our land, if we do not beat them back?
12229Will the truth be better or stronger by that?
12229Will they suspect the truth?
12229Will they tell?
12229Will you act for me, Aleck?"
12229Will you do it?"
12229Will you go for this brigade?"
12229Willis had gone so far as to make me infer that he was very much afraid of me: why?
12229Willis had never known me as a Confederate; then why should the Doctor have known me as such?
12229Would it not have been better for me to remain in the Union army?
12229Would my memory return if I should find them?"
12229Would not England have been wiser if she had not endeavoured to subdue the colonies?
12229Would, the other States have compelled them to come in?"

12229Yet was he not doing service as a surgeon?
12229Yet, would not a line of our men out here be silent?
12229You are not impatient?"

12229cried one of them;"who are_ you?_""Keep your place in line, Private Lewis,"said an officer, coming up,"I''ll attend to that man."
12229for the cause?

41787I said,"Captain, what are you going to do with us wounded fellows?"
41787I was lying a little way from a wounded negro, when a secesh soldier came up to him and said:"What in hell are you doing here?"
41787If I understand you, General Shepley had no opportunity to relieve Fort Pillow any way?
41787If so, what was it?

41787In connexion with the fort buildings?

41787In what prison were you placed?
41787In what respect would hardship and ill treatment superinduce the complaints most prevalent among these paroled prisoners?
41787In your judgment, as a physician would it be possible for their soldiers to retain their health and energy if fed as our prisoners have been?
41787In your opinion as a medical man, are these statements true?
41787In your opinion, as a physician, by what have these diseases been produced?
41787In your opinion, as a physician, what has reduced these men to that condition?
41787In your opinion, has General Brayman acted with vigilance and activity, and done all he could with the forces intrusted to him, during these raids?
41787In your opinion, how many of these men will recover?
41787Is it also true that all the army supplies for the western department pass through here?
41787Is not that a direct and utter violation of the rules of warfare?
41787Is not that one of the symptoms attendant upon starvation, that men are likely to become deranged or idiotic?
41787Is not the disease as evinced among those men clearly defined as resulting from exposure and privations, and want of proper food and nourishment?
41787Is that all you know about it?
41787Is that the ward in which are the colored men we first examined yesterday?
41787Is there a cordial understanding and co- operation between the navy here and the military forces under General Brayman?
41787Is there anything else that you think of important to state?
41787Is there anything further you desire to state?
41787Is there anything more you desire to state?
41787Is there anything more you wish to state?
41787Is there really any difference in their condition except in degree?
41787Is your hospital divided into wards, and can we go through and take the testimony of these men, ward by ward?
41787It has been said they cut off his finger?
41787It is correct then?
41787It is your opinion, you have stated, that these men have been reduced to this condition by want of food?
41787It was an indiscriminate butchery, was it?
41787It was refused by Major Booth?
41787It was then occupied rather as a recruiting station than for any other purpose at that time?
41787Just as if they were close enough to select the parts of the body to be hit?
41787Just the same thing we now see here?
41787Kept it up for how long?
41787Killed by the privates?
41787Nothing to keep off the rain and snow?
41787Now, with regard to this raid of Forrest, was that raid made in your department?
41787On the 14th he again instructed me as follows:"What news from Columbus?
41787On your plantation?
41787One of the rebels?
41787Ordered up by General Sherman?
41787So far as you could observe, was any discrimination made between white and black men, as to giving no quarter?
41787So that it fastened him to the boards in such a way that he could not get up, even if he had been alive?
41787So that you have no reason to doubt that they told the exact truth, or intended to do so?
41787Some white soldiers shot after they were wounded?
41787That gave them an advantage?
41787That must have been done after the fort had been captured?
41787That was what you gave to the captain, was n''t it?
41787That you saw?
41787The day of the fight?
41787The enemy had used no artillery?
41787The general said to our captain,"Can you run that boat down?"
41787The morning after the capture?
41787The one the same as the other?
41787The rebels must have killed a great many of the white men after they had surrendered?
41787The rebels would reply,"God damn you, why did n''t you surrender before?"
41787The secesh soldier said:"You want to fight us again, do you?
41787The secesh would be prying around there, and would come to a nigger and say,"You ai n''t dead, are you?"
41787The second flag that came in-- about how long was it after the first?
41787The tent had been burned?
41787Then I understand you to state that your instructions, in spirit, required you to hold it, and that it was necessary that it should be held?
41787Then it was another body that had been burned which you saw?
41787Then what was done with you?
41787There were others there with you on the island?
41787These lines were scattered by rebel shots several times?
41787These men were unarmed?
41787They finally took the fort?
41787They had bloodhounds?
41787They had none there?
41787They said,"Do you fight with these God damned niggers?"
41787They then bear their misfortunes bravely and patriotically?
41787They thought you were dead when they pulled your boots off?
41787They were then brought under your charge?
41787This was before the capture of the fort?
41787This was done while he was sick in the hospital?
41787This was the day of the fight?
41787Those were white men?

32902And do you think that you can now be Roland''s preceptor?
32902And does he perceive truth in agreement with others, or in opposition to them?
32902And does not that leisure come only when he has gained through his labor a surplus of wealth?
32902And has she told you the secret too?
32902And have you no inquiries to make about the Chevalier?
32902And have you turned over the seat, so that no one may occupy it before your child returns?
32902And how does he learn to sharpen them, and to round them off?
32902And how will they become better?
32902And if I were,exclaimed Sonnenkamp,"what gives you the right to judge me?"
32902And in the park, under the weeping ash?
32902And is she beautiful too?
32902And may I not be allowed to know what this brief communication was?
32902And might I know why you, too, forsake me?
32902And now stand up and tell me,said the priest, in a trembling voice,"tell me honestly, is not that the one and only method?"
32902And now, whom would you propose?
32902And now?
32902And now?
32902And of course, with hardly a thank you?
32902And that is?
32902And what do you advise?
32902And what do you intend to do?
32902And what do you mean by the right sort of aristocracy?
32902And what do you think it is?
32902And what do you think?
32902And what follows from that?
32902And what is the third? 32902 And what is your opinion of Roland''s talents?"
32902And what is your second point?
32902And where do those live with whom he is in agreement?
32902And where is Herr Dournay?
32902And who told you?
32902And who would make this fire?
32902And why did n''t you try to convert me from it?
32902And why did n''t you wake me up?
32902And why did you say nothing to me about it?
32902And why must you stay here any longer?
32902And why so horrible?
32902And will you be my brother?
32902And will you never tell me, why and how this thought has sprung up in you?
32902And you are no longer of that opinion?
32902And you did n''t come to establish yourself in the house, in order to marry the daughter?
32902And you have granted her this condition?
32902And you love her, and are here on her account?
32902And you would never have become one?
32902And, having given the money, can I remain here in honor?
32902Anything about Herr Crutius?
32902Are the good to deny to themselves a friendly intercourse, because the bad conceal under this appearance all kinds of baseness? 32902 Are there vineyards attached to this country- house?"
32902Are we not like the children who lost their way in the wood, and stumbled upon hidden treasure? 32902 Are you a Frenchman, as your name indicates?"
32902Are you a nobleman?
32902Are you an agriculturist?
32902Are you betrothed to Pranken?
32902Are you here at last?
32902Are you of opinion,asked the Prince,"that the categorical imperative of Kant, and the French Revolution, have tended to the same results?"
32902Are you quite alone?
32902Are you so intimate with the Superior?
32902Are you the only one to say nothing to me?
32902Are you the son of the Herr Weidmann whom I have so often heard of?
32902Are you very proud of being an American?
32902Are you, too, down- hearted and meditative?
32902But Roland,asked Eric,"how can I leave the boy behind?
32902But are you not a Huguenot?
32902But does not this equality destroy all greatness, all genius?
32902But how did he look? 32902 But if I should fall in love with you, what then?"
32902But my dear, noble, high- aspiring young friend,was what he said aloud,"honestly, do you believe that the Pope will do what our Roland expects?"
32902But now, honorable and worthy gentlemen, is there any question you would like to ask? 32902 But supposing that he did belong to our church, how would you then regard him?"
32902But surely you will be glad to see Fräulein Sonnenkamp again?
32902But then?
32902But what do they want?
32902But what opinion have you formed about Herr Dournay?
32902But what was it? 32902 But where are you going to- morrow?"
32902But where can Roland be?
32902But where is Eric?
32902But where is Manna?
32902But where is Roland?
32902But where is the Professorin? 32902 But who is she, then?"
32902But why has God ordained it?
32902But why should n''t she be a nun, if she wants to?
32902But you know who first told where the youth is? 32902 But you''ve been to the convent on the island?"
32902But your parents?
32902Ca n''t the dog stay with us?
32902Can I prevent it?
32902Can a brute animal be rich?
32902Can a man like that belong to our order, and have the sign?
32902Can one buy the earth?
32902Can you not tell fortunes?
32902Can you speak of such a thing here and now? 32902 Can you tell me about him?"
32902Can you? 32902 Capable of what?"
32902Captain, Doctor, I beg your pardon, what name?
32902Captain,he asked,"have you settled matters?"
32902Certainly, but what comfort is that thought, if one no longer breaks the daily bread of life with another? 32902 Come to me,"said his mother,"and kiss me, Roland, you look so pale; is anything the matter with you?"
32902Copernicus?
32902Cowardice?
32902Crude?
32902Did Eric say that?
32902Did Eric tell you that I had seen Pranken? 32902 Did he mention me by name?"
32902Did he tell you he was to be raised to the ranks of the nobility?
32902Did n''t you understand my question?
32902Did she say nothing about me?
32902Did the military school never seem to you a school of men, and part of your profession?
32902Did you bring the morning edition with you?
32902Did you come on horseback?
32902Did you ever have a passion for play?
32902Did you ever hear,said he,"the story of the man who was a suitor forty years?
32902Did you never have a longing to be able to enter a convent?
32902Did you never know Frau Bella before?
32902Did you notice,she asked in a low voice,"what a look Herr Sonnenkamp gave me, and how he raised his finger at me?
32902Did you see a woman there in the garden?
32902Did you see it too? 32902 Did you see the wooden shoes that the nuns wore?
32902Did you understand me?
32902Do I not deserve now some amusement?
32902Do n''t you know that pride is a fault?
32902Do you believe that we shall be ennobled then?
32902Do you know Herr Knopf?
32902Do you know about plants too?
32902Do you know how the question of our age is put? 32902 Do you know it?"
32902Do you know no answer?
32902Do you know that I have hit upon means to be relied on of forming an opinion of Herr Sonnenkamp''s deserts?
32902Do you know the play?
32902Do you know the purport of this letter?
32902Do you know this?
32902Do you know who I am?
32902Do you know why dogs are born blind?
32902Do you know, father, when I first began to respect nobility?
32902Do you know,cried Bella quickly,"do you know that I promise myself a great deal of pleasure from you?"
32902Do you mean Theodore Parker?
32902Do you mean to say,answered Weidmann, pressing his head with both hands,"do you mean to say that you know nothing about it?"
32902Do you not think,she asked,"that a dog, this one, for instance, has an unspeakably sad expression of face?"
32902Do you see at last? 32902 Do you speak English?"
32902Do you still prefer to be silent in the morning?
32902Do you think he will hear of it?
32902Do you think she will come?
32902Do you think so?
32902Do you think so?
32902Do you think that he could know what would be the results?
32902Do you think the Niggers are human beings like us?
32902Do you think,Eric broke in,"that a better result would come from a consultation of many, than from the quiet meditation of a single person?"
32902Do you think,asked the Professorin with some hesitation,"that these two persons can be happy together for a single hour?"
32902Do you think,she said, turning to the Professorin mysteriously,"do you think that our noble rank is altogether safe and sure?"
32902Do you understand what the Doctor was aiming at?
32902Do you want to put on your uniform at once?
32902Do you wish that, even now? 32902 Do you?
32902Does it not impress you strongly too?
32902Does that please you?
32902Does the Countess Bella know of this?
32902Does the source of all your wealth lie in that?
32902Does the wood of the cask serve to clarify the wine?
32902Does your mother know?
32902Done me wrong?
32902Dress myself over again? 32902 Excuse me, what then do you want?"
32902Faith?
32902Father, is this also a part of the test you have put me to?
32902For Heaven''s sake, what''s the matter?
32902For myself, what have I left to desire? 32902 For what, then?"
32902For what?
32902For what?
32902For yourself?
32902For yourself?
32902From me? 32902 Fräulein Milch, would you read to me?
32902Had we not better put an end to the discussion altogether?
32902Had you a particularly confidential relation with any one of the ladies?
32902Had you any particular friend at the convent?
32902Has he given you his consent?
32902Has he his pistols with him?
32902Has it a name?
32902Has it taken so soon? 32902 Has n''t your pupil, as I am sorry to say most rich men''s sons have, the desire to be a cavalier, a young nobleman?"
32902Have I hurt your feelings?
32902Have I not already told you that I have an aversion to all this sentimental fuss on behalf of the negroes? 32902 Have I said that I was going to decline?
32902Have none of your tutors told you anything of him?
32902Have not others lived before him?
32902Have what?
32902Have you any idea where we can look for him?
32902Have you any recollection of America?
32902Have you any thing more to say?
32902Have you any thing to ask me in private?
32902Have you any thing to say?
32902Have you been to your mother''s?
32902Have you come from my son?
32902Have you ever known of the elevation of an American to the ranks of the nobility?
32902Have you ever seen a million?
32902Have you found him?
32902Have you got him so soon?
32902Have you had no craving to be rich?
32902Have you kept the flowers?
32902Have you many horses at home?
32902Have you news of him?
32902Have you no courage?
32902Have you no idea?
32902Have you not walked the horse out for exercise? 32902 Have you read the Journal?"
32902Have you seen my father?
32902Have you seen your mother yet?
32902Have you studied chemistry?
32902Have you the dog still?
32902Have you then a relative in the convent, and are you acquainted with the good mother?
32902He has known everything? 32902 He has promised me a five- pointed coronet; it will become me, will it not?"
32902He is not going to die, is he?
32902He was right popular, I''m certain?
32902Heard so? 32902 Here you behold a pair in the garden of Eden--""Perhaps you would like this to complete your picture?"
32902Herr Captain,Pranken said, coming to her help,"would you favor us so far as to give us your view?
32902Herr von Sonnenkamp,began the long lieutenant,"have the negroes any musical talent?"
32902Him? 32902 Homelessness?"
32902Honored mother,began the maiden,"you have read the letter from Fräulein Perini?"
32902How are your parents?
32902How can you think so poorly of me?
32902How could I?
32902How did she seem?
32902How do I look?
32902How does a man get this superfluity?
32902How does it happen,he inquired of her,"that the poor, or the comparatively poor, are united together so much more closely than the rich?"
32902How long since you became so slow of comprehension? 32902 How old was she?"
32902How should you know what is passing in my thoughts?
32902How then can a man do anything for the improvement of himself or his fellow- men?
32902How, to whom? 32902 How?
32902How?
32902I a noble? 32902 I am not cross, I am not cross; do you think I am?"
32902I am so within myself; but where will freedom be allowed me? 32902 I am very glad to hear it; but why did you not tell me that at once?"
32902I ask,interposed Eric,"is the teaching of revelation, which is amply sufficient for the purely spiritual, sufficient also for the worldly?
32902I belong to them? 32902 I feel that we are already at home, now I hear that whistle, do n''t you?
32902I have one request,began Eric in a constrained voice;"will you bestow upon me one hour of your life?"
32902I leave you?
32902I pray you to come often to see me; or will you let me come to you?
32902I should like,answered Eric,"if I really have the position--""Really have the position?
32902I thought of emigrating to the New World, but what should I do there? 32902 I trust you will pardon my boldness; is it true that Manna is to be taken from the convent, and have her education completed by you?"
32902I, a request? 32902 I, like that?
32902I? 32902 I?
32902I? 32902 I?
32902I? 32902 I?"
32902I?
32902I?
32902I?
32902I?
32902I?
32902I?
32902I?
32902I?
32902If I can answer it, why should n''t you?
32902If it is something good, why not?
32902If it were his true vocation, who would take the responsibility of holding him back? 32902 Ignorant and insignificant?
32902In farewell?
32902In love then? 32902 In what way?"
32902Indeed I am; and do you not like him better than Pranken?
32902Indeed? 32902 Indeed?"
32902Indeed?
32902Indeed?
32902Indeed?
32902Is Herr von Pranken coming?
32902Is a man of rank to be understood?
32902Is any one of the relatives at Wolfsgarten?
32902Is civilization possible, when a man has to work hard from morning till night for the satisfaction of his physical needs?
32902Is gold the temptation?
32902Is he alone?
32902Is he living?
32902Is he not too well aware of his own worth?
32902Is he still determined to enter the army?
32902Is he there?
32902Is he your brother? 32902 Is it Benjamin Franklin?
32902Is it impossible then, to combine work and play?
32902Is it not grand that human beings continue their ordinary pursuits in the midst of nature''s disturbances? 32902 Is it really true that you''re going away to- morrow?"
32902Is it the same with water?
32902Is it you, Herr Major?
32902Is my mother well?
32902Is n''t Eric coming back any more?
32902Is n''t it dreadful to have to eat again?
32902Is that the fact? 32902 Is the crisis, then, so near?"
32902Is the man one of the nobility?
32902Is there no one in the neighborhood whom you would like to call upon?
32902Is there no way in which I may relieve myself of a secret that has been confided to me?
32902Is there such a means?
32902Is there? 32902 Is this a plan which you have agreed upon with Herr Dournay?"
32902Is this an age which can concede any special duties, and with them any special privileges, to the nobility? 32902 Is this friendly confidence, or is it expected as a service?"
32902Is your cousin Hatty still living?
32902Is your mother a botanist?
32902Is your son with you?
32902Is''t true, father, that the prize belonged to you?
32902Let you do what?
32902Manna not here?
32902May I accompany you?
32902May I ask a question?
32902May I be permitted to say something to you?
32902May I know what it was he added?
32902May I know yours?
32902May a friend say a word about it?
32902May not such pleasure in imparting,she asked doubtfully,"be an exaggerated self- esteem or pure vanity?"
32902May one know what you are talking about so earnestly?
32902Me? 32902 Me?"
32902Men, what have I done to you?
32902Might I ask who sends you, and what your errand is?
32902Might I be permitted to read Fräulein Perini''s note?
32902Might I venture to request you to show me the lines?
32902Might one ask the name of the friend?
32902Might one be allowed to ask where you have been?
32902Must a rich man produce, accomplish anything himself? 32902 Must?
32902My dear young lady, do you think I would say no? 32902 My father serve me as a warning?"
32902My father- land? 32902 My friend?
32902My ruin?
32902No real satisfaction?
32902No, but who are you?
32902No; but----"Well, but what? 32902 No; how do you know it?"
32902Not at all; for what is all this treasure? 32902 Not even from me?"
32902Not even from me?
32902Not if it is good?
32902Nothing at all? 32902 Now can you mimic Herr Dournay?"
32902Now the question came up what was I to do? 32902 Now, Herr priest,"he directly asked,"which candidate will the clergy vote for?"
32902Now?
32902Of me? 32902 Oh, uncle and Herr Knopf have often talked about what you were going to do with them-- and do you know what they said?"
32902Oh,asked Lina,"are Africans and negroes the same thing?"
32902On myself and my pupil?
32902On your responsibility?
32902One hour?
32902Only homesickness,said the stranger in a low tone to himself, while the lady asked,"How do you cure homesickness?"
32902Our father told you a secret?
32902Papa,she called out to her father, who came up just then,"is Herr Captain Dournay going with us to the Baths?"
32902Parchment-- parchment?
32902Perhaps Doctor is a finer title,replied Sonnenkamp sharply;"or is that born with a person?"
32902Perhaps Roland has already been informed of this wish, and of how well it suits?
32902Perhaps you are not friendly to the missionary spirit?
32902Perhaps you expect to be summoned?
32902Perhaps you have a feeling of pity for these clipped branches?
32902Pleasantry?
32902Pray tell me,she asked,"did you ever pass through a phase in which you admired men of force, like Ezzelin von Romano?
32902Probably he loves you as much?
32902Put us into an awkward position?
32902Really? 32902 Reflect seriously upon this,"Sonnenkamp said,--"what would you make, and what am I to make, of Roland?
32902Robert, what room is assigned to the doctor?
32902Roland Franklin Sonnenkamp; what is yours?
32902Roland, what are you saying? 32902 Roland, what do you mean?"
32902Roland, what is the matter?
32902Sent here?
32902Servant?
32902Sha''n''t we go to meet them?
32902Shall I explain them?
32902Shall I see you this evening in the garden?
32902Shall you have the library of your father brought here?
32902Shall you not consider Germany as your fatherland?
32902She is coming presently, I hope?
32902She was in the house, and did n''t come to see me?
32902Should I advise you to forsake Herr Sonnenkamp and your bride?
32902Should n''t you like to become one?
32902Should we not?
32902So he makes you mind like the rest of us, does he?
32902So innocence with a captain''s rank allows itself also to be bought? 32902 So one of the pets of the school- masters has sunk his teeth in here?
32902So our wild doe has got home?
32902So soon?
32902So that is for you,she said, complainingly;"what is there for me?"
32902So you are a believer too?
32902So you are of the same opinion?
32902So you would like to make a scholar of him, a man who can boil his own coffee?
32902So? 32902 Something new?
32902Suppose Manna had come here?
32902Taken out into free air?
32902Tell me,she asked,"how you have borne it?"
32902Tell me,urged Roland,"why you said, when you were going to that convent, that you, too, were an Iphigenia?"
32902Thank God,said the teamster,"that you are with me; did you hear that laugh?"
32902The daughter of this man thy wife, the mother of thy children? 32902 The field- guard?"
32902The great deed?
32902The laughing- spirit? 32902 The man ca n''t weep if he would, and you--?"
32902The public funds? 32902 The second grade?"
32902Then it would be, perhaps, the greatest piece of good fortune to Roland, if his father could be ennobled?
32902Then why was the rank of captain given him?
32902Then you agree to it, father?
32902Then you want to be an officer?
32902Then, if one should give this very minute a thousand gulden to each one of them?
32902This evening?
32902Thou alone?
32902Through me?
32902To Manna?
32902To whom?
32902Towards my daughter? 32902 Truth?
32902Upon me?
32902Was n''t the Doctor''s wife at church?
32902Was not Manna with me too? 32902 Was this visitor at the villa while I was away?"
32902Weidmann? 32902 Well, and I?"
32902Well, then, consider wherein does a cultivated man differ from an uncultivated?
32902Well, then, will you hear the close, too?
32902Well, what''s the errand?
32902Were you ever passionately in love? 32902 Were you not at the convent?
32902Were you then already decided not to wait for the sentence?
32902What are we, judged by our most secret thoughts?
32902What are we, when judged by our most secret thoughts?
32902What are you doing there?
32902What are you doing? 32902 What are you doing?"
32902What are you laughing at so merrily?
32902What are you laughing at?
32902What are you reading so earnestly?
32902What are you saying of Herr Weidmann?
32902What are you smiling at now?
32902What are you talking of?
32902What are you thinking about?
32902What bits of slaves do we eat to- day? 32902 What can have been the origin of this tradition?"
32902What child?
32902What did she say?
32902What did we know of the world? 32902 What do the brethren have swords for then?
32902What do they say?
32902What do you bring, Herr Baron?
32902What do you know?
32902What do you mean by that?
32902What do you mean by that?
32902What do you mean? 32902 What do you mean?"
32902What do you mean?
32902What do you mean?
32902What do you mean?
32902What do you mean?
32902What do you say? 32902 What do you think, then, is now to be made of Roland?"
32902What do you understand by vocation?
32902What do you want here? 32902 What do you want of him?"
32902What do you want? 32902 What do you want?"
32902What do you want?
32902What do you want?
32902What does it mean? 32902 What does this mean?
32902What for?
32902What for?
32902What has happened to you?
32902What has happened?
32902What has happened?
32902What has the Devil to do with it?
32902What have you done?
32902What help are you to me? 32902 What is concrete?"
32902What is going on here?
32902What is it for?
32902What is it, pray?
32902What is it? 32902 What is it?
32902What is it?
32902What is it?
32902What is it?
32902What is it?
32902What is parchment?
32902What is that?
32902What is that?
32902What is that?
32902What is the matter with our daughter?
32902What is the matter with the child?
32902What is the matter?
32902What is the matter?
32902What is the third? 32902 What is to be made of him?
32902What language did you write it in?
32902What makes you ask me that?
32902What makes you look so cross?
32902What more?
32902What motto would you select for yourself?
32902What now? 32902 What obstacles?
32902What shall we decide upon doing?
32902What shall we do to- day?
32902What should you say if we should be noble too?
32902What sort of a place is that?
32902What sort of one?
32902What sum would you demand?
32902What tears will those eyes one day shed?
32902What was it?
32902What was the man''s name?
32902What was the matter with your mother, that she was so sad all the evening?
32902What will the children do now?
32902What will you do now with the hundred florins?
32902What will you give me,he asked,"if I manage to have the captain stay with you as a companion and teacher?
32902What wine would you like? 32902 What would you do with them?"
32902What would you do; if you should become the possessor suddenly of many millions?
32902What would you do?
32902What would you do?
32902What would_ you_ do, captain?
32902What''s going on?
32902What''s her father?
32902What''s that to us?
32902What''s that? 32902 What''s that?"
32902What''s the man''s name?
32902What''s the matter? 32902 What''s the matter?
32902What''s the matter? 32902 What''s the news?"
32902What''s this? 32902 What''s to pay?
32902What''s to pay?
32902What, for instance?
32902What, now, should a man do, who comes into possession of so much power that he has not worked for?
32902What, then, has this Herr Dournay done?
32902What? 32902 What?
32902What?
32902When I heard the Herr Count speaking of the heritage of civilization, I felt as if I must ask: how do we know that we are civilized?
32902When do you start?
32902Where are we driving?
32902Where are you going?
32902Where did you put up?
32902Where does he get these?
32902Where have you been for these three days, that we have seen nothing of you?
32902Where have you been?
32902Where have you been?
32902Where is Eric?
32902Where is Roland?
32902Where is Roland?
32902Where is Roland?
32902Where is Roland?
32902Where is he?
32902Where is my sister?
32902Where is she?
32902Where is the messenger?
32902Where is your father now?
32902Where is your mother?
32902Where is your obedience? 32902 Where lies your way, Herr Baron?"
32902Where shall we bury her?
32902Where?
32902Which is?
32902Which?
32902Who are you? 32902 Who did that?"
32902Who did?
32902Who else knows it? 32902 Who is Brown?"
32902Who is Epictetus?
32902Who is Fräulein Milch?
32902Who is it?
32902Who is poisoned?
32902Who is the father- in- law you speak of?
32902Who knows?
32902Who will remain with Roland meanwhile?
32902Who would have believed that the Priest would dare to speak so at the grave? 32902 Who would suppose that the long lieutenant and the Professor belonged to the same race of men?"
32902Who''s there? 32902 Who?"
32902Who?
32902Why am I alone? 32902 Why am I interrupted?"
32902Why are dogs the enemies of hares?
32902Why are you not of the nobility?
32902Why did n''t you speak of it to me?
32902Why did n''t you wait for it? 32902 Why did you appeal to the Court,"she said at length,"if you meant to leave before sentence was pronounced?"
32902Why did you not look in, for a moment, upon the worthy people?
32902Why did you not tell me?
32902Why did you send me word that she was ill, and call me out in the middle of the night on that account?
32902Why did you throw off the stirrups?
32902Why do n''t you ask after_ my_ health?
32902Why do n''t you speak? 32902 Why do n''t you tell her so yourself?"
32902Why do you ask, since the asking tells me that you already know?
32902Why do you make no reply to me?
32902Why do you not answer?
32902Why do you not ask how I am?
32902Why do you not ask me how I enjoyed the theatre?
32902Why do you tremble so, all at once?
32902Why do you want to see it?
32902Why have n''t you spread our beautiful white table- cloth?
32902Why have you had nothing to say?
32902Why have you never spoken of this man?
32902Why he,asked Eric,"any more than the noble youth in the civil or in the military service?
32902Why is it? 32902 Why not Washington, who was so great and pure?
32902Why not then?
32902Why not?
32902Why not?
32902Why not?
32902Why not?
32902Why not?
32902Why not?
32902Why not?
32902Why should I, my child? 32902 Why so?
32902Why these words here? 32902 Why was the name Huguenots given to them?"
32902Why were you not at the trial? 32902 Why, how are they going to paint the Devil, if he''s not to be black any longer?"
32902Why,she said to herself,"does there now come no voice to us from the air?
32902Why? 32902 Why?
32902Why?
32902Why?
32902Why?
32902Wife, what are you saying? 32902 Will men ever be better than now?"
32902Will you allow me to light a cigar? 32902 Will you allow me to send for the Priest?"
32902Will you be so good as to put this tub from the stand upon the ground?
32902Will you become poor?
32902Will you have the goodness,he added,"to send the answer to me at the parsonage?"
32902Will you not send for the Priest, or had n''t we better go and visit him ourselves?
32902Will you not tell my husband, gracious lady, that he ought to make his views known? 32902 Will you permit Herr Dournay to accompany us?"
32902Will you repeat your question to me once more exactly?
32902Will you tell me as exactly as possible how, you have so-- I mean, how you have become what you are?
32902Will you tell me how you have become so great and daring, so free-- the only free man?
32902With Roland?
32902With all her culture, how were such things possible?
32902With what?
32902Without the cask? 32902 Would an ignorant man have asked the question?"
32902Would n''t you like to be rich?
32902Would not Herr von Pranken, or the Countess, or the Cabinetsräthin, be better suited for such an office?
32902Would you like to journey then without me?
32902Would you remain a schoolmaster,asked Eric,"if you had a competency?"
32902Yes, what else should I be?
32902Yes, you shall know all,--ah, what is all? 32902 Yes,"she said,"do you remember that time?
32902Yes; but what have you discovered?
32902Yes; do you know them by their whimper?
32902Yet one more question: did your father never explain to you what occurred at his sudden-- you know what I mean-- loss of favor at court?
32902You are a Captain of Artillery, sir?
32902You are already acquainted with the Countess Wolfsgarten?
32902You are going home with us?
32902You are surprised?
32902You are the Roland then, of whom the good Herr Knopf is always talking? 32902 You are well, are you not?"
32902You believe then in education?
32902You can not go with us? 32902 You did not?
32902You do not intend entering the papal army?
32902You find Roland, then, an excellent youth?
32902You had a younger brother whom you have lost? 32902 You have already spoken with my son?"
32902You have already, and it has been forgiven for a long time; but how does it happen that you are here?
32902You have been weeping?
32902You have not yet told me whether you accede to the plan--"Have I not?
32902You have studied the Mystics?
32902You here?
32902You humiliated deserted, weak? 32902 You know, and still love me?"
32902You mean, perhaps, your friend?
32902You sent for me, father?
32902You surely would not want me to use other people, and appropriate to myself the product of their labor?
32902You take pride, then, in your descent from the Huguenots?
32902You think I am a passionate child, do you not? 32902 You think that you can bribe us with these millions?
32902You think, do you, that these are genuine stones? 32902 You too?"
32902You will go with us also?
32902You will not keep the dwarf any longer in your employment, I suppose?
32902You would then place wealth above sovereignty?
32902You''re proud of them then?
32902You? 32902 You?
32902Your astonishment?
32902Your friend? 32902 Your teacher?"
32902_ You_ and the teacher, that Huguenot, that word- huckster, that hypocrite? 32902 _ You_ envy_ me_?"
32902''What is that?''
32902.... and tell me, did I ever meet at your house a teacher by the name of Runzler?
32902A pause ensued: then Weidmann said in a re- assuring tone,"And why not?"
32902A peculiar smile darted over Sonnenkamp''s features, as he asked,--"And do you feel confident that you can make a corrupted nature noble?"
32902A sentence upon Sonnenkamp?
32902A strange whispering pervaded the whole assembly when Eric narrated the inquiry of Claus: What would you do, if you were the possessor of millions?
32902A vertigo seemed to seize him, and he cried,--"Do you hear, Manna?
32902A work of mercy absolves"--"A work of mercy?"
32902A year ago to- day he became mine, or I his; did you not, Eric?
32902Above all, his pride was wounded; he, Clodwig, was scorned, and by whom?
32902After Manna had gone to her room, it seemed to her there that the pictures on the wall looked at her and asked: Who can this be?
32902After a while, Bella asked,--"Can you tell me why I am now so often low- spirited?"
32902After all, how can you expect a slave to be a model of virtue, and an example of all that is good?"
32902After some time, in which the boy was evidently thinking about Eric, he said,"Are you French, like your name?"
32902After they had gone a few steps, the Professorin called Fräulein Milch back, and asked in a whisper,--"Does the Major know, too?"
32902Again Eric drew him back from his digression, asking,--"Can you suggest any vocation for Roland?"
32902Again the thought flashed through Roland''s mind: Is not that the same thing that he himself had already thought of-- and Manna too?
32902Ah, dear Griffin, do n''t you know a way home for me now?
32902Ah, what more is there to say?
32902Ah, why ca n''t you be as merry as we?
32902Ah, why can you not be here?
32902Ah, why do you not know Lilian?
32902Ah, why must there be poor, unhappy men; why ca n''t the whole world be happy?"
32902All this you can effect; you can direct nature, why not man?
32902Almost the whole inhabited world is known to me, and shall I tell you what I have found in it?"
32902Am I a child still, he asked himself, that can be knocked about hither and thither, that must obey and ask for no reason?
32902Am I to expect that the Professorin will address me so?"
32902And I ask you now, do you feel yourself able to give this to my son, without making him a priest- ridden slave, or a canting devotee?"
32902And Roland said:--"Louis the fourteenth, who exiled your ancestors, is he the one who destroyed the castles here on the Rhine?"
32902And after all, might it not be an advantage for Roland to enter the ranks of the nobility?
32902And are you laughing at it?"
32902And at the lake he said:--"Frau Majorin, will you have the goodness to admire the Lago Maggiore?"
32902And by what was this respect obtained?
32902And can what comes out of your own cognition become a part of the cognition of another?
32902And can you picture to yourself a nigger statesman, a nigger professor?"
32902And can you think of a negro as a painter?
32902And canst thou share in possessions so acquired?
32902And could you so long play the hypocrite and retail your fine speeches?
32902And did she know it perhaps already?
32902And do you know that I have heard you sing too?
32902And do you know what is the best thing?
32902And do you know what it is?"
32902And do you know what she said?
32902And do you know,"Knopf concluded,"then I thought of you and Roland?
32902And do you know,"he turned toward the Prince, smiling,"do you know what is the first requisite for an agriculturist?"
32902And do you think that you can train a boy, of whom you have formed so low an opinion?"
32902And do you understand what the consequences would be?"
32902And from your sick- bed?
32902And had not her self- love been wounded?
32902And has not your whole life been a lie?
32902And have you, my young friend, ever entertained the thought that chaos may come again?"
32902And here the question presents itself to me: Why must an acknowledged ideal principle always and forever be attained through blood?
32902And here, Herr Captain, here''s my hand: I''ll drink not a drop more after to- day, except when I''m thirsty: may n''t I quench my thirst?
32902And how did the world before Columbus''day get on without any uncles in America?
32902And how was this?
32902And how?
32902And if I should know on whom, what then?"
32902And if death comes, what say ye then?
32902And if he has already wandered, can he still be honest?
32902And in spirit?
32902And is it for this that I have defied the world, old and new?
32902And is it for this that I have undergone so much?
32902And is n''t it good that he has given him the name Herr von Endlich?
32902And not less beaming were Roland''s eyes, as he asked:--"And did n''t she speak of me?"
32902And now are coming the two great works of emancipation,--the emancipation of the slaves and of the serfs, and what is bringing them about?
32902And now you will leave everything and come to us, will you not?"
32902And now?
32902And now?
32902And now?"
32902And on whose account?
32902And should he, then, shoot himself, be thrown into prison, and have his head cut off?
32902And tell me, ought there not to be some way of punishing such men?
32902And the boy asks,''Is''t you that laughed so?''
32902And the world?
32902And then?
32902And then?"
32902And this Sonnenkamp, and his wife, and Fräulein Perini, and the Priest?
32902And this passionate woman who could not endure to devote herself to the best of men, what was to become of her?
32902And thou wilt send forth thy voice weeping into the night, and wilt shudder at the night of death?
32902And was not this the girl with wings, who had met him the day before yesterday in the convent?
32902And were these many forms, were all these events, to be only the passing occurrences of a journey?
32902And what are all these puppets around you?
32902And what are we trying to do?
32902And what are you now?
32902And what do you desire?
32902And what had happened between them, after all?
32902And what is the name of this man?
32902And what ought those to desire whom you wish to make like yourself?
32902And when you look into that mirror, do you know whose image you see?"
32902And who could contradict her?
32902And why do you impart this to me?
32902And why is it that this doctrine, that no one is to possess anything, has not become a command of the Church?"
32902And why is this man in such a hurry?
32902And why should they not talk of persons, and occasionally say something pretty severe?
32902And will she cry about him?
32902And will you reject such a nobleman?
32902And would it not be better that she should enter into life?
32902And yet, was it meant to be a prophetic warning?
32902And you''ll do all this, wo n''t you?
32902And you-- are you not happy too?"
32902Are not the chamberlains something of this sort?"
32902Are there miracles in our life?
32902Are these sounds within him?
32902Are they still here?"
32902Are they to avenge themselves?
32902Are you Germans?
32902Are you a botanist too?"
32902Are you acquainted with the recent investigations into the Japhetic races?"
32902Are you ashamed of this kinship?
32902Are you jealous?"
32902Are you offended with me?
32902Are you personally acquainted with Lincoln?"
32902Are you really frightened?"
32902Are you really going to drill our boy?
32902Are you really worth so many hundred millions?"
32902Are you sensitive-- vulnerable?"
32902Are you sick?
32902Are you standing over the spot of earth which shall be your grave?
32902Are you the forest prince?"
32902Are you then so bound to the very minute?
32902Are you then so far a prisoner?
32902Are you willing to promise that we ladies shall do as we like together?"
32902Are you, too, a friend of slavery?"
32902Art thou then so old?
32902As Eric was silent, Roland asked,"Well, have you found what they mean?"
32902As Roland was still silent, the child continued, very seriously,--"Do n''t you want to be a husbandman, and have my uncle teach you?
32902As Roland went with him, a strange fear came upon him: what if he could not find Eric?
32902As he sat in the boat, the ferryman said to him,--"Perhaps some maiden over there is betrothed to you?"
32902As he saw the sun shining on the glass dome of Villa Eden, it struck him like a lightning flash,-- Why is such a free, delightful existence denied me?
32902As he stood at Sonnenkamp''s door and was about to ring, he heard some one inside saying in a loud tone:--"But Where''s Herr von Pranken?"
32902As he woke up, he cried,--"Is it morning already?
32902As if a bullet bad whistled close to his ears, Sonnenkamp cried,--"What?
32902As if a new stop had been drawn out, Pranken immediately asked:--"What''s the state of things at the Villa?
32902As the guests were about to enter their carriage, the Prince said, in quite a loud voice, to the Professorin:--"Where is your son?
32902At last, bringing the words out with an effort, he said:--"You know that I am about to receive a title?"
32902At table Roland asked,--"Father, is it true, that you are worth ten millions?"
32902At that time, when the Prince visited us, his kind message to you affected me as if he had bestowed a benefit upon myself Do you remember?
32902At the top, the door of a room opened, and at the door stood a woman, who asked,--"Whom do you wish to see?"
32902Because the English worshippers of rank place slave- traders in the category of pirates?
32902Bella has her flirtation with the Captain, why should he not have his with Lina?
32902Bella''s voice was hoarse; and, covering her eyes with a white handkerchief, she asked,--"Were you present when your father died?"
32902Bella, however, went on:--"Has Roland ever yet read Byron''s''Cain''?"
32902Besides, just as it happened with our daughter--""What happened with me?"
32902Both men said nothing for a short time; then the Dean asked:--"Does this Herr Sonnenkamp know that you are acquainted with his past life?"
32902But Albert-- Do you know Albert?
32902But Manna asked:--"May we not know what your objection is?"
32902But Manna-- how would she take it?
32902But as they were going home, he asked,--"Now tell me, Eric, what would you do if all this wealth were yours?
32902But can you sing,''These holy halls''?"
32902But do n''t tell a soul about that stale old suitor, will you?
32902But do you believe that he will do now for money-- even were it ten times as much-- what he has not done of himself?
32902But do you know what is the most desirable thing, which money can not buy?"
32902But do you know what the most dangerous thing about Frau Bella is?"
32902But had the child really said that she was from America?
32902But have you not conceived the idle fancy, that by taking up your abode in my house, you may perhaps win the affections of my daughter?"
32902But he had no particular zeal for his calling; he was in the habit of saying,--Why am I mixed up with the affairs of other people?
32902But how can we judge such people aright?
32902But how is it when you see with your own eyes the child sold away from the mother, and in that way every tie of family forcibly torn asunder?"
32902But how was it with Roland, one of the thousands who listened, and who were thrilled by the sound of this voice, in the depths of their souls?
32902But if each one gives away, and gives away continually, who is there in that case to be the recipient?
32902But if you leave the vicinity before long----""Leave the vicinity?"
32902But in what can even she help him?
32902But is it not an absurd perversion to use equal rights for the abolishment of equal rights?
32902But is n''t it strange that my first youthful love-- I was hardly ten years old-- should have awakened in me?
32902But is the child who can not yet speak, on that account not to make known his wishes by cries?
32902But it was not necessary; and why should he imbitter against him the only parties who remained his friends?
32902But let me see-- what is it, Eric?"
32902But now, what does that mean?
32902But on property so obtained?
32902But shall there be a union of Jewish noble families, who, like others, shall marry only among themselves?
32902But tell me, how is Roland?
32902But tell me, what is there in that?"
32902But the latter now took Manna''s hand, saying:--"Do you know for whom is the third bridal wreath which shall be woven from this myrtle- tree?"
32902But the little girl made her smile to- day by asking:--"Is there snow in Jerusalem too, then?"
32902But the tones resounded within him, and the question darted through his mind: How will Manna bear it when she learns the terrible secret?
32902But then what would become of Frau Ceres, Manna, and Roland?
32902But they might have become so before this or afterwards: why, just at this very time?
32902But up there in the village the huntsman Claus lives, he has our dogs----will you go with me to see him?
32902But what are you so sad for?
32902But what course remained to her?
32902But what do we talk so much for?
32902But what do you mean to be?"
32902But what does the rich young man of the middle- class have?
32902But what is he to do there?
32902But what is now to be done?
32902But what is our life?
32902But what means this silly infatuation?
32902But what said my employer when he reached the spot?
32902But what should I do with such an indolent, selfish life?
32902But what was there that he could do?
32902But what was this line?
32902But where''s Manna?
32902But who can compensate him for the torment he has endured here?
32902But why do n''t you speak?
32902But why do we speak of such things now?
32902But why dost thou suffer them to worship thee, and then to scorn thee in thy creatures?
32902But why had he taken upon his shoulders this beggarly family, so puffed up with their own ideas?
32902But why is this the only thing to be made light of?
32902But why should I give up this man to somebody else, and above all to this Sonnenkamp?
32902But why speak of this now?
32902But without waiting for a reply, he continued,--"Have you ever experienced ingratitude?"
32902But would not this be an insinuation against his sister?
32902But would you believe it?
32902But you will not let him know anything about my having sent for you?"
32902But, I ask your pardon, I wo n''t talk any more-- what were you going to say, comrade?"
32902But, dear, noble lady, why should not a man be able to take up a different life, a new existence, whatever he may have done?"
32902Ca n''t you tell me what made this?"
32902Ca n''t you tell me why you thought it unsuitable for being read?"
32902Can Otto von Pranken offer love, and not have it reciprocated?
32902Can a human being, then, do more harm than good to another?
32902Can a man do that, and then go away by night and break into another''s house, and rob?
32902Can it be I?"
32902Can one buy then the immovable ground?
32902Can that be allowed?"
32902Can you be a soldier, a fighter in the cause of humanity, and not obey?
32902Can you not guess what it is?"
32902Can you tell, Eric, now?"
32902Claus replied:--"What do you say?
32902Clodwig again stroked softly Eric''s hand, saying,"Will you come?"
32902Come, tell me-- what will you give me?"
32902Could Bella have had any notion that the thought had crossed his mind,--What if this wife-- and then Eric be thy son?
32902Could I imagine a Lessing, in his old age, in this house of refuge which I would found?
32902Could Pranken have been the originator of it?
32902Could any one now tell that it had been left by a bite?
32902Could he be the one who was announced?
32902Could he not have waited a day longer?
32902Could it be possible that they repented and were sending a courier after him?
32902Could it be possible?
32902Could it have been she herself who had so laughed?
32902Could not the Prince have taken it pleasantly?
32902Could only human understanding devise such a story as this?
32902Could she warn her son plainly?
32902Could there be any thing better?
32902Could these men be helped by money?
32902Count von Wolfsgarten, you are the wisest of us all; are you also of opinion that a million must have a title?
32902Dear Perini, tell me-- is she gone?"
32902Dear captain- doctor, what''s the need of their knowing yonder how you and I stand with each other?--So you wish to live with Herr Sonnenkamp?"
32902Did Clodwig have any suspicion of it?
32902Did I ever say so?
32902Did I not ask you if you had any such views when I was conducting you over the house?
32902Did I rightly understand you?
32902Did Roland give you no hint?"
32902Did Sonnenkamp already know?
32902Did he desire to note accurately, once for all, the relation between Eric and Bella?
32902Did he forebode that he would never put it on again?
32902Did he not come out of the atmosphere of incense?
32902Did he not want to come with you?
32902Did not Fräulein Perini inform him that Eric had visited the convent before he came to this place?
32902Did not the Priest know the origin of the money before this?
32902Did she not want to meet her mother while walking with Eric?
32902Did she speak of no member of this household?"
32902Did she think it was a mark of high- breeding to show the stranger such a degree of indifference?
32902Did the baron think he must adapt his language to him, the merchant?
32902Did the whole glory of his house depend upon the esteem in which this woman was held?
32902Did they ever say a word to you about being unable to accept it?"
32902Did this man dare to propose such a thing?
32902Did you ever hear of being insured against the insurance company?
32902Did you ever receive one of her dainty little notes?
32902Did you not say something, Madame Perini?"
32902Did you not tell me that you had sent word to the priest to come hither?"
32902Did your husband love music too?"
32902Did your husband, now gone to his eternal home, smoke too?"
32902Do I make it clear to you?"
32902Do I rightly apprehend your meaning?"
32902Do all the neighbors still hold aloof from her parents''house?
32902Do n''t they try to make you believe that you''ve been called to be a saint?
32902Do n''t you feel as I do, that you have just come into the world, and that all that has happened before was only a dream?
32902Do n''t you feel as if you were a bird that had been caught, and had got free again?
32902Do n''t you get tired of this whole pack of teachers?
32902Do n''t you hear?
32902Do n''t you like her name of Hatty?
32902Do n''t you love them more than anything else?"
32902Do n''t you notice how bad Roland looks now?
32902Do n''t you see a leek in her hand, which she has just cut?
32902Do n''t you see through this very transparent intrigue?"
32902Do n''t you sometimes feel afraid of him?"
32902Do n''t you think him handsome?"
32902Do n''t you think our barnyard hen makes a great deal more noise over the laying of an egg than her wild sisters?
32902Do n''t you think she is now thinking of us?"
32902Do n''t you think so?"
32902Do n''t you think that there were villains also among the singers, perhaps worse ones than those in prison yonder?"
32902Do they converse always about abstractions?
32902Do you always wear a uniform?"
32902Do you believe in natural depravity, and if you do, since when?"
32902Do you believe me capable of the villany of speaking so of a woman whom I had loved, even for a minute, or liked even for a second?
32902Do you believe me?"
32902Do you believe that this boy, conscious of his riches, and this whole family, can receive a moral culture except through religion?
32902Do you comprehend me?"
32902Do you comprehend my meaning?"
32902Do you feel glad at being made a noble?"
32902Do you feel proud because you''ve taken the prize?
32902Do you forget that it will leave me quite alone in a strange house?"
32902Do you hear any thing?
32902Do you hear?
32902Do you know any song they sing?"
32902Do you know anything about wine?"
32902Do you know how Herr Sonnenkamp comes on in his endeavors to get a title?"
32902Do you know of something else?"
32902Do you know that grand word which God spake when he revealed himself in the desert to the holy Shepherd?
32902Do you know that millions have lived before him, and have looked at the stars?
32902Do you know that the wild fellow has now an affection of the spine, and is wheeled about at Wiesbaden in a chair?"
32902Do you know that we are all, strictly speaking, children of Cain?
32902Do you know that we never see each other alone in these days?
32902Do you know that?
32902Do you know what changes regularly take place in bodies as they become warmer or colder?"
32902Do you know what obedience is?"
32902Do you know what one thing more I want?"
32902Do you know what riches are?
32902Do you know what that is, a million pounds?
32902Do you know what the ferret''s name was?"
32902Do you know what the most grateful tree is?
32902Do you know what vexed me most in the publication of this story?"
32902Do you know what wealth is?"
32902Do you know who would be a fit mate for Frau Bella?"
32902Do you know, Eric, what he would say?"
32902Do you like me too?"
32902Do you love nature?
32902Do you not believe that he is now looking down upon us?"
32902Do you not consider this a proof of narrowness, or whatever else of that nature you may choose to call it?"
32902Do you not find this attractive?"
32902Do you not know?"
32902Do you not notice that Mrs. Nightingale, who sang so spiritedly a few moments since, is now suddenly dumb?"
32902Do you not think it is very close?"
32902Do you not think that he will take part in this struggle?"
32902Do you not think this Herr Dournay a most attractive man?
32902Do you now understand me?"
32902Do you play whist?
32902Do you really believe that he will submit to your decree?
32902Do you really believe that it would add to Roland''s happiness to have a title?"
32902Do you remember my asking you when you came here first, how long since you had been a believer in depravity?"
32902Do you remember our old play:''Everything flies that has wings''?
32902Do you remember that day when you came out to me, and CÃ ¦ sar played the harp, and I danced in my blue frock and my gold- colored shoes?
32902Do you remember?"
32902Do you see that butterfly, flitting in great circles against the window pane?
32902Do you see the abyss on whose brink I stood?
32902Do you stand as high in favor with the Countess Bella?"
32902Do you suppose that religion saves them from destruction?"
32902Do you think in all these hundreds and hundreds of books there''s one single fate like ours?
32902Do you think, it is a destiny worth striving after, to be able to increase the food of mankind by a few sacks of potatoes?"
32902Do you understand Manna''s meaning?"
32902Do you understand anything of horticulture?"
32902Do you understand what I mean?"
32902Do you understand?"
32902Does Herr Sonnenkamp know that you are making this confidential communication to me?"
32902Does Lilian know it over the sea?
32902Does Manna know what star this is?
32902Does Pranken know it?
32902Does Sonnenkamp mean to give her the house?
32902Does he feel----?
32902Does he not look very pale?"
32902Does he still breathe for whom all this had life, for whom it all was to live, for whom it was planted and set in order?
32902Does he want to gull him?
32902Does he wish to ridicule him, or, by means of this refined policy, to get the better of him still farther?
32902Does it know that this storm will pass over, and serve only to give it new strength?
32902Does it not often seem as if a malicious demon ruled the world?
32902Does n''t it seem as if trees had understanding?
32902Does not the rippling tempt you too?
32902Does not this woman praise her, enter into her utmost soul, in order to win her over and seduce her from the faith?
32902Does not your Excellency agree with me?"
32902Does the priest of this parish know of this?"
32902Does your head whirl?
32902Each one is thinking about himself, but why talk about myself?"
32902Eric asked him,"Is your sister''s name Manna?
32902Eric asked:--"Which do you like best, to have some fixed object for your ride, or simply to go over a certain distance, and then turn back?"
32902Eric continued silent, and Sonnenkamp asked,--"You have still another point?"
32902Eric continued,--"Is there any good thing in the world that I would not like to give you?"
32902Eric had followed his host into the workroom, and here Weidmann asked him:"Do you know why you are sent here?"
32902Eric had now a secret; was he to let it be possible for a servant to betray him, and himself appear untrustworthy?
32902Eric hardly heard what Knopf was saying, and for the first time woke up out of his dreams when Knopf asked him,--"Where is Roland?
32902Eric hushed him, but could not get in a word; for Claus exclaimed,--"Do you know that now Sevenpiper''s going to let his daughter marry Ferdinand?
32902Eric inquired now in a diffident tone,--"But how can the Church itself possess riches?"
32902Eric led the conversation back, and asked,"Who helps you train the dogs?"
32902Eric ordered the horses to be put again to the carriage, and entered it with Roland, who asked,--"Where are we going?"
32902Eric said, however,--"Have I the honor of seeing my colleague, Herr Knopf?"
32902Eric silently pressed the Major''s hand, and the latter asked:--"But where''s Roland?"
32902Eric smiled; he felt that his pupil was having destroyed in him what could never be repaired; but what could he do?
32902Eric tried every means to induce her to see Bella, but she refused, saying:--"Can you, the pure, the good, allow me to be so debased for an hour?
32902Eric was silent, and Manna asked him once more:--"Is it then a matter of so much indifference to you what people think of you?"
32902Eric went to sleep, and when he waked, said:--"Why does not Manna come?"
32902Every one plays only his part in life, and who is to regard it in serious earnest?
32902Excuse me to your parents for flitting by them, and-- who, who is the young man here with you?"
32902Finally he said,--"What does all the rest amount to?
32902Finally the Superior said,--"Have you confessed to the Priest?"
32902For what length of time had he received it?
32902For what purpose?
32902Frau Ceres was awakened, and her first cry was:"Has he killed himself?"
32902From what was Frau Ceres suffering?
32902From whom?
32902From you?
32902Fräulein Milch hung her head sadly, then put both hands before her face, crying,--"Why must I tell you?"
32902Fräulein Milch smiled knowingly at the Major, as much as to say,"Did I not tell you he was making fools of you?"
32902Give me your son"--"My son?"
32902Glancing towards the Doctor, the Major said,--"Is n''t this a really wonderful man?"
32902Had he not a superfluity of that?
32902Had he really seen his mother, or had she been only present to his imagination?
32902Had it not formerly been his highest desire to live and to teach here?
32902Had it really happened, or had he only dreamed?
32902Had not a good, and, as he himself thought, a most graceful turn been given to his allusion?
32902Had the father''s suspicions been roused by Roland''s awkward question, and was he about to tell him that he must give up all thought of Manna?
32902Had then the man made an unusual impression upon her?
32902Has Roland got back yet?"
32902Has a surprise been prepared for her?
32902Has all this been only a vision of her own fancy?
32902Has any one ridden him?"
32902Has he already applied for admission?"
32902Has he any idea of what has transpired?
32902Has he often such?"
32902Has it been only a day?"
32902Has n''t Manna told you anything about me?"
32902Has n''t he caught it now?
32902Has she gone?
32902Has that world- wisdom, has that religious doctrine, the victorious power of truth, if it can not annihilate this monster?
32902Has the doctor also told you that he had a private conversation with Herr Dournay on Sunday?"
32902Has this place a peculiar power to awaken thoughts of death?
32902Hast thou sinned in proving faithless?
32902Have I already told you that our friend Knopf has found a charming little wife?
32902Have I said that I would?
32902Have n''t you dreamed out your dream?"
32902Have n''t you slept almost enough?
32902Have not we two, who now stand here, this inward hold?"
32902Have they come hither from the other world, those creatures with human forms?
32902Have you a large, frame?
32902Have you any answer?"
32902Have you been in the church?"
32902Have you both lost your tongue?
32902Have you come from Villa Eden?
32902Have you ever caught a swarm?"
32902Have you ever drunk virgin wine?"
32902Have you ever heard of her?"
32902Have you ever met such a man?"
32902Have you ever once thought of this, what is to become of humanity; what of States, if this increase of state- debts continues to go on in this way?
32902Have you found each other out so soon?"
32902Have you never had the desire to marry, or has that not entered into your plans?"
32902Have you not been a thief?
32902Have you not said to Roland that the time will come, or has already come, when there would no longer be any private property?"
32902Have you not seen my daughter?"
32902Have you quite forgotten how to laugh?
32902Have you seen or heard nothing of Frau Bella?
32902Have you seen the head of Medusa?
32902Have you taken notice that the young fellow has a poor digestion?
32902Have you too an antipathy to pigs?
32902He compelled himself to collect his thoughts, and said at last,--"You are the son of Herr Sonnenkamp, are you not?
32902He embraced his sister heartily, crying out,--?
32902He had asked Knopf: What would you do if you should come into the possession of millions?
32902He had not done well in making a pun with the name he had conferred upon Herr Ton Endlich, for what is more monumental than elevation to rank?
32902He looked round, expecting to see it; something must certainly come to him and say,"For thee have I waited; art thou here at last?"
32902He raised his eyes to heaven and said to himself: O sun, what bringest thou new today?
32902He rang and asked:--"Where is Roland?"
32902He read"Uncle Tom''s Cabin"for the first time, and wept over it, but presently roused himself, and asked,--"How is this?
32902He saw the shepherds with their sheep upon the stubble- field, and asked himself: Is that a better life?
32902He sprang up, pressed her in his arms, exclaiming again:--"You?
32902He stopped, and Roland asked,--"When is it that I am to enter?"
32902He to possess all this,--a schoolmaster?
32902He trembled when he thought: How would it be if Bella should see me?
32902He urged a decision, asking,--"Have you any method of punishment or reparation to propose?"
32902He walked on, silent and thoughtful, till at last he asked,--"Where is the offering?"
32902He was expected there; but how was he to present himself to the company?
32902He was made to take a seat in the carriage, and Clodwig''s glance to his wife said,"Hast thou ever seen a nobler specimen of a human form?"
32902He wishes to sell the house to me for an extravagant price, but what can I do with it?
32902Her thoughts went further: since he had to die before you, why could he not have died years ago, while you were still beautiful?
32902Here Sonnenkamp laid a heavy hand on his shoulder, and said:--"Are you entirely honest?
32902Here are a thousand employments; which shall I take?
32902Here in the music room, where the young people had so often sung and danced-- would there ever be dancing and music here again?
32902Herr Dournay, you have heard all-- Have you, though?"
32902Herr Sonnenkamp sent you then to the nigger on some special commission?"
32902His mother listened patiently to the end, and then asked,--"Do you hesitate to accept this gift because it comes from Herr Sonnenkamp?
32902Homelessness?"
32902How am I to endure it, how am I to conduct myself, if she salutes me as her sister- in- law?"
32902How are they there?"
32902How came this simple housekeeper in her seclusion to know everything?
32902How can I adequately thank the Eternal Spirit that my Eric lives; that I am not a widow, and that a life is not made fatherless from its very birth?
32902How can one at the same time be a person of elevated thought, and be rich?
32902How can the holy Word be devoutly proclaimed in a building erected by an appeal to the covetousness of men?
32902How could a man with such a past as his have such presumption?
32902How could he draw back?
32902How could he guard and preserve his own inner life?
32902How could he laugh now at the world, if he had no longer the meanness of men to laugh at?
32902How could he think of himself, and not of her hard fate?
32902How could this old, grave lady, clad in mourning, who stood in the path, detain him?
32902How did they now appear in their new character of enemies and antagonists?
32902How did you get on at the convent?"
32902How do you regard a man who traffics in beings of this inferior race?"
32902How does it come to pass that this simple- minded creature has called out his slumbering thoughts, and brought them up from the depths of his soul?
32902How does the hand feel that held in it millions of your own?
32902How does the little cloister- plant do?"
32902How expect him to strive after the ideal, after a higher activity, when all this splendor and homage have been offered him?
32902How far are we masters of our destiny?
32902How happens he here now?
32902How is it then?
32902How is that possible, and what good would it do?
32902How is this possible?
32902How is this?
32902How is your honored mother?"
32902How long, ever since its first shooting forth, has such a leaf been moved by the wind the whole summer long, until it drops, and then-- well, then?
32902How many of these puppets would be in possession of nobility, if they had to win it by heroism like yours?
32902How much had happened to him and to others since he rode out from Wolfsgarten to Villa Eden?
32902How often had he lamented that every one said:"The world is bad and totally corrupt; why should I alone separate myself and deny myself its pleasures?
32902How old are these men?
32902How old were you when you came to Europe?"
32902How so?"
32902How then can I help it, who see and know you as nobody else can?"
32902How was it possible for a man to possess such wealth?
32902How was it that a nobleman, a Count von Wolfsgarten, could use such language?
32902How was this rich youth to be made to learn to love, labor for, and influence the world which so laid itself at his feet?
32902How were they to do it?
32902How will she bear it?
32902How will she bear it?
32902How would I seem to him?
32902How would it be if the Prince asked about the ring on his thumb?
32902How would it be possible to hold a young spirit to a definite course of constant self- development?
32902How would that girl with long, black hair and glittering wings open her bright eyes?
32902How''s this?"
32902How-- what?
32902How?"
32902I acknowledge the great sacrifice you would make in rendering me this service fully, thoroughly, but you will make the sacrifice, will you not?"
32902I am very simple, am I not?"
32902I bought my slaves from a prince, bought them honorably, but what did you do?
32902I ca n''t help thinking all the time, what would you do if you had many millions?
32902I came to beseech you"--"Why do you hesitate so long?
32902I can learn to ride, fence, and shoot, as well as Herr von Pranken, do n''t you think I can?"
32902I can only do it by showing my contempt; it is painful to me, but must I not do it?"
32902I express myself clumsily, do I not?"
32902I had friends wherever I went: how long were they my friends?
32902I have a special hatred against this Frau Bella; do you know why?
32902I have never had a word from Baron Pranken except the question,''Where is the Major?''
32902I have often speculated about it, and the first greeting that came to me was,--''What is a million?
32902I have won over the Dean of the cathedral, though?"
32902I lost myself, and what did I gain?
32902I mean, of course, not the million, but the man who has the million?"
32902I must make the experiment of placing a youth upon the platform of acting freely from----""Reason?"
32902I renounce the pleasure, I prefer the duty; and do you know where my duty lies?"
32902I saw all that this love devastated, and could it be love?
32902I shall be present?"
32902I should like to ask if America has any new moral principle?"
32902I stood at his bed- side, and with a last exertion of strength, he asked me;--"Herr Major, can any one steal a thing like that?"
32902I was staying not long ago with a brother priest in the town which is part of the same parish with Villa Eden-- is not the place so called?
32902I will drive home with you, home,--you have the right to command,--what more do you want?
32902I will not say----""What is it?"
32902I wonder whether he is thinking of and yearning for me at this moment as I am for him?
32902I''ve nothing to say against their being free, why should n''t they be?
32902I, Orestes?
32902I?
32902I?
32902If I have the disposal of Herr Sonnenkamp''s charities, will you assist me?"
32902If Roland now had some special talent--""Do you find none at all in him?"
32902If this boy should one day learn----""Learn what?
32902In a very subdued tone, Herr Sonnenkamp asked,"Will you eat anything, dear child?"
32902In an excited tone he asked, after reading a long list of names:--"Who wrote that?"
32902In order to know how great value any sum possesses in itself, I have first asked,''How much bread could be bought for a million?''
32902In the Jockey Club the''Jeunesse dorà © e''are railing at the monster Sonnenkamp, and what are they themselves?
32902In the day thou wilt ask,''Where am I?''
32902In the great music- hall, he stood on the platform, and called to Eric and Roland:"Herr Captain, may I ask a question?"
32902In the midst of his weeping, an old man cried:--"What are you waiting for?
32902In the midst of the gaiety, she said to Pranken:--"Did you know that Captain Dournay''s teacher had arrived?"
32902In the newspaper?"
32902In the open air-- what is that?
32902In what state of mind is Sonnenkamp awaiting the result of this struggle?"
32902Indeed, where was Roland?
32902Is Herr von Pranken dead?
32902Is Otto von Pranken to complain to a man, to appear in a helpless condition before any one?
32902Is all well?"
32902Is everything only a shadow in like manner?
32902Is he a cousin?
32902Is he awake yet, I wonder?"
32902Is he talking with any one?
32902Is he very much agitated?
32902Is he worthy to receive it, and can his look rest purely upon it?
32902Is his father, then, not noble, for desiring the contrary?
32902Is it a trick?
32902Is it about that big Sonnenkamp, or about the handsome Countess?"
32902Is it all only a fever- fancy, or is it reality?
32902Is it indeed you?"
32902Is it not Sonnenkamp?
32902Is it not a mistaken course to drive a human being to goodness, by the sight of all sorts of misery and weakness?
32902Is it not always so?
32902Is it not as it was with Claus?
32902Is it not beautiful that a man can gain solace from a single good deed?
32902Is it not fine?"
32902Is it not laughable that a battle is to be fought here?
32902Is it old age which makes it so difficult for me to give up a desire?
32902Is it possible that there is such a way of thinking as this, even in those who belong to the church?
32902Is it possible?
32902Is it really the lot of human beings to live so?
32902Is it so?
32902Is it true that no one can stand in the place of another, can sacrifice himself for another?
32902Is it true that you saw Manna Sonnenkamp, before you came here?"
32902Is n''t drinking wine a much pleasanter thing to see than eating meat, nourishing one''s self with animal food?"
32902Is n''t it so, Devil?
32902Is n''t it so, mother?
32902Is n''t it the same with you?
32902Is n''t it true, Eric, that I understand what you said when you first came here?
32902Is n''t it, father?
32902Is n''t she a heavenly creature?
32902Is n''t that a pretty love of nature?
32902Is n''t that so?
32902Is no boat going?"
32902Is not all accomplished now?
32902Is not his every word of prayer, is not his offering, a lie?
32902Is not joy itself a sort of devotion?"
32902Is not that the way they do at Court?"
32902Is not the desire for solitude a necessary part of that free individual life which is our noblest characteristic?
32902Is not the life of man such a plant?
32902Is not the quiet communion with one''s self, which is our most precious treasure, destroyed or banished by living in such close relations with others?
32902Is not this a most noteworthy phenomenon?
32902Is she really a learned and noble lady?
32902Is she to believe in the love of frail human creatures?
32902Is she to believe that she is wooed for her own sake?
32902Is she trying to bring him into her own house, and getting up a nice intrigue against her husband?
32902Is that a life worth living?
32902Is that not Herr von Pranken?
32902Is that satisfactory?"
32902Is that terrible man, perchance, on board that boat which is now steaming up the stream in the first morning light?
32902Is that, too, only imagination?
32902Is the All- wise, the great World- soul, still there?"
32902Is the Prince coming to ask his pardon?
32902Is the light in the soul of a human being an incomprehensible electric spark that can not be laid hold of, and which flashes up in resolve and act?
32902Is there a legend about our castle?"
32902Is there any help for such things?
32902Is there any one who sees anything ugly, anything coercive, in pruning the vine three times every season?
32902Is there any thing like a righteous moral order in the affairs of this world?
32902Is this a kind of mockery?
32902Is this all imagination?
32902Is this half lethargic, half raving person really insane, and kept within bounds in society only by the greatest care?
32902Is this love?
32902Is this man making fun of him?
32902Is this not one of the temptations?
32902Is this something worse than a nervous person,--is she insane?
32902Is this the expiation you would exact of me, or a part of it?"
32902Is what moves you and draws you onward just such a shadow as this?
32902It is an incomprehensible whim, a freak-- not of passion, no-- how could Bella confess that of herself?
32902It is just a year ago, this hour, since I ran away; can it be only a year?
32902It is wonderful, the correspondence between the two stories,--is it not?
32902It is, To use, or to be used?
32902It remained fixed upon Eric, and why should it not?
32902It was out of the question that these men had been there themselves; but what meant this reminder of them?
32902It would be nice to plant a tree to remember this day by, and have you plant one near it, do n''t you think so?
32902Joseph answered:--"His Highness the Prince is here, and wishes----"The Prince?
32902Just as they mounted, the huntsman said further,--"Do you know that your father is buying up the whole mountain?
32902Just draw a long breath, comrade-- there, what sort of air is that?
32902Laughing- water!--The money belongs to the boy; he did n''t steal it.--Hats off before the baron, do you hear?
32902Let me illustrate my meaning by facts-- or do I weary you?"
32902Lilian is the child of one of his father''s most determined enemies, and, if forced to decide, can he take the field against his father?
32902Lina was silent, and her mother said,"Give some smart answer; ca n''t you think of one?"
32902Lina went on with Eric, and said abruptly:--"Do you know that your pupil Roland has a sister?"
32902Looking up he perceived Professor Einsiedel coming towards him: What better man could he have to clear up his doubts and restore his peace of mind?
32902Love, suddenly taking possession of two hearts, is said to make them one; and is it not also true of friendship?
32902Manna did not say a great deal; at last she asked,--"Who may this Captain Dournay be, of whom Roland writes to me so enthusiastically?"
32902Manna understood how he felt, and kneeling by the sofa, she cried:--"Roland, I have a great secret to tell you; Eric and I----""What?"
32902Manna understood what this meant; but did the Superior, then, already know of her defection?
32902Manna, grasping her brow, said,--"Have I then not clearly confessed that I do not feel myself culpable?
32902Manna?"
32902May I ask still another question?"
32902May I not tell it you?"
32902May this be a wily move to neutralize the physician''s opinion?
32902May we not-- must we not do the same?
32902Meant well?
32902Might I ask you to call the Major, and let me join the ladies?"
32902Might not this be the only means of establishing a home for him in Germany?
32902Must I relate to you all these petty annoyances?
32902Must it be so?
32902Must it not be so too with human life?
32902Must it then take place?
32902Must n''t I shut Laadi up?
32902Must not a rich young man of the middle- class, like Roland, thrown into the whirlpool of life, be inevitably ingulfed?"
32902Must that be?
32902My brother had long been at rest in his grave,--who can say where?
32902My father-- do you know it?"
32902My son, why do you not write whether you have inquired for Uncle Alphonso?
32902No trifling compliment was paid him by the Prince, who added:--"I should be glad if you would bring Herr Sonnenkamp to me; where is he?"
32902No words were needed, they could not speak, for each wanted to say to the other: Do you know what I would say?
32902No, this thou dost not desire; but why art thou not, at least, placed out of the reach of anxious care?
32902No, you were only joking; were you not?
32902No; what''s in that?"
32902Not only would men lose their faith, but the cause itself would be injured; who knew how deeply or for how long a time?
32902Not that, no, not that: what does it signify, this petty duel in a corner of the wood, and you killing one man even, according to the code of honor?
32902Now ca n''t you know what the child is from this little trait, supposing that they have not spoiled her in the convent?
32902Now do tell me, Manna, how you felt when you heard him sing so?
32902Now he straightened himself up and asked Eric,--"What do you think of Desdemona''s guilt?"
32902Now tell me if such a faith is not worth more than any millions of money?
32902Now tell me where you found out about Parker?"
32902Now they take up the neglected widow, now,--why not before?
32902Now why do you laugh, pray?
32902Now, do n''t you believe that you could do something for us?
32902Now, to go farther, are the men of these times better than those of old times?"
32902O God, why dost thou suffer it?
32902Of the children?
32902Of what use are coats of arms?
32902Of what use was it?
32902Of what use were lessons when the mind was thus excited?
32902Of what use would it be, if I were not in my own soul good and noble?
32902Of whom can one borrow millions?
32902Oh, why should I recount our dangers?
32902On it-- will the patent be written with ink just the same as everything else that they write?"
32902On the table of this rich man there is placed, every day, a display of sweet- smelling, bright- colored flowers,--what does that matter?
32902On the way Manna said:--"Do you know that I had an aversion for you, when I came here?"
32902On whom?
32902On your honor?
32902Only once, when the boat came to a sudden stop in the middle of the stream, she asked:--"What is that?"
32902Or are you a contemner, of the Moravians, also?"
32902Or had he only fancied that he saw them?
32902Or is it only a creation of his own fancy?
32902Or shall I call him for you?"
32902Or was he about to offer him his daughter''s hand?
32902Or was it not mere chance?
32902Or was this part of the humbug?
32902Or when will she hear of it?
32902Ought he to restrain the boy from writing about him?
32902Ought n''t she to come and congratulate me?"
32902People can make you bad, but good-- who can make you that?
32902Plainly, then, this has been and is now my thought,--whither can you lead Roland?
32902Pooh, what did it signify giving the old name to this lackey?
32902Pranken approached, and asked:--"Will your Highness see the Park and the Victoria Regia in bloom first, or the house?"
32902Pranken immediately drew off his glove, and reaching out his hand to Eric, asked,"Are you taking a pleasure- tour?"
32902Pranken replied with some warmth,"I should think a son''s first question would be,''What will my father say to it?''"
32902Roland came along the path, and called out,--"I may ride out with Herr Dournay, may I not, papa?"
32902Roland detained the Mother, and when the others were out of hearing, he asked her:--"Did Manna tell you too that she was an Iphigenia?"
32902Roland had been lost in thought; now he asked abruptly,--"Have you ever seen any slaves?"
32902Roland remained silent and absorbed for some time after he and Eric were left alone; finally he asked:--"Does my father know what you once were?"
32902Roland said to me in a low voice:--"Do the slaveholders work without being forced?"
32902Roland was as inattentive as ever, asking at last only this question,--"What is the maiden''s name?"
32902Roland went back to his dog, and said,--"Griffin, now we are going to Manna; are n''t you glad?"
32902Roland''s heart trembled; what if his sister----?
32902Roland, on the contrary, with hearty pleasure seized the hand of the little man, soft as a child''s, and said,--"Do you know how you seem to me?
32902Roland, where art thou?"
32902Roland, who was in the next room, heard him say, the first thing as he entered:--"Where is Roland?"
32902Rolling the sack together, and tossing it away, he said,"Was no servant at hand?
32902Say, have you decided yet what you''ll do with the big pile of money, when you''ve once got it in your hand?"
32902Several comrades in their uniform seemed not to know him; others bethought themselves after he had passed, and called out,"Ah, is it you?
32902Shall I assure you that I can keep a secret?"
32902Shall I make you a solemn protestation?
32902Shall I travel again, seek forgetfulness and fancied pleasure in landscapes, crowds, works of art, and then talk, laugh, play in society?
32902Shall we point the scourged and oppressed to a reward in the next world, where the master will be punished and the slave elevated?
32902Shall we raise a regiment of cavalry or of infantry?
32902Shall we take new wine, still lively and fermenting?"
32902Shall you tell your neighbors of it?
32902She can say this-- who can contradict her?
32902She continued,--"Why have n''t you been to see us before?"
32902She did not know what to make of it all; why had she been summoned when there was so little to be said to her?
32902She had made fun of me?
32902She had to destroy something, or what would she have done with all this culture?
32902She looked up, half roguishly, half pitifully, and asked:--"Is it true that you once loved her?"
32902She smiled to herself for the first time, and then again asked herself the question, Why do we have no animals in the convent?
32902She too?
32902She tried to place her hand on Manna''s head, but the girl shrank back and cried:--"Tell me distinctly, who knows it?
32902Should I call thee mine, and bear with thee the burden of this horrid wealth?
32902Should he be glad to think this woman nothing but a coquette, trifling now with one man and now with another?
32902Should he be standing there too?
32902Should he by a protest interfere with the healing skill of the Doctor, who sought to cure the effect of the poison by a counter poison?
32902Should he now feel any concern about it?
32902Should he tell Sonnenkamp that his wife had sent for him?
32902So the young people are betrothed, and at the house?
32902So this was the man, and he to be sole master here for the future?
32902So you have never heard of a Herr Banfield?"
32902So, then, Herr Weidmann; and who else?"
32902So, then, she told you that I had once paid her my addresses?
32902Some old recollection must have been stirred in Roland; for he suddenly said to Eric,--"What would Claus say if he could see all this?"
32902Sonnenkamp and Eric regarded the Major in silence, who uttered the decisive words,--"What becomes of Roland?"
32902Sonnenkamp asked, smiling,--"Then would you really advise making an ecclesiastic of Roland?"
32902Sonnenkamp invited him to be seated, in a very friendly manner, asking.--"Did he take the money?"
32902Sonnenkamp made no reply to this remark, and Weidmann continued,--"What conclusion have you come to about my request concerning your son?"
32902Sonnenkamp stared at him; the whole city, the coachmen on the streets knew it, and can this man be ignorant?
32902Sonnenkamp stood in the hot- house near the palms; he felt chilly; then he asked himself:"Why does not the child love you?
32902Sonnenkamp stopped, and now, boring with his knife very delicately, he said,--"Do you look at me in astonishment, because I impart wisdom?
32902Sonnenkamp was yet more and more delighted; and when Eric inquired,"Which one of your family is musical?"
32902Sonnenkamp yonder-- what does he wish for himself and his son?
32902Speak further; what do you bring?"
32902Still another dreadful thing?
32902Still more surprised was he at Sonnenkamp''s offering him his hand the next moment and saying:--"You remain ours, do you not?"
32902Stretching out her arms, the mother cried,--"In Heaven''s name, Hermann-- thou?"
32902Suddenly he passed his hand over his brow, and asked,--"Are the people who are slaves fond of their children?
32902Suddenly she sat upright, and asked,--"Are you acquainted with my daughter?"
32902Suddenly she turned to Fräulein Perini, and asked,"He is coming back, is he not?"
32902Suddenly, in the orchard, the Prince asked the Professorin:--"Where is your sister- in- law, the beautiful Claudine?"
32902Sugar is the pony''s name, is it not?"
32902Suppose now that to each one of the multitude here, all of them,--how many do you think there are?"
32902Suppose that one should burn it all up, and every thing in it?
32902Suppose the millionaire, towards whom I am riding, should be Uncle Adam?
32902Taking up a different topic, Roland asked:--"Have I not been diligent and obedient?"
32902Tell me all; what do you know?"
32902Tell me now, have you a little sister?"
32902Tell me, am I awake or dreaming?
32902Tell me, how is your mother?
32902Tell me, what would Cicero or Socrates have said, on reading Lord Byron''s''Cain''?"
32902That gives strength, does it not?
32902That inexhaustible wealth of his is guano for the Baron Pranken; he needs it, and why should he trouble himself about where it comes from?"
32902That is to say, Art never alone in thyself, with thyself?
32902That is worth ever so much, is n''t it?
32902The Greeks had slaves too; and we?
32902The Justice''s wife complained that Captain and Doctor Dournay--"what is one to call him--?"
32902The Major asked:--"May n''t I know what has been the matter with you?"
32902The Major''s housekeeper boasts of your being her favorite, and yet do you know nothing of the private betrothal?"
32902The Major''s housekeeper, if I do not mistake?"
32902The Prince continued:--"Ah, Captain, what are we, who are set in high places?
32902The State in which you live is of no account to you at all?
32902The boy was silent, and his father repeated the question:--"Not even from me?"
32902The branches of fruit- trees can be trained and beat at will; why are men so obstinate?
32902The dog barked as if she would say,"What''s all this?
32902The dogs jumped about the wagon, and Roland cried out to them,--"Do you too know that this is my happiest day?
32902The handsome Eric Dournay, the Adonis of the garrison, wants some one to do his wooing?"
32902The horse looked round at his rider, as he exclaimed aloud:--"That would be the thing?
32902The huntsman was innocent, and here?
32902The idea surprises you?
32902The inquiry seemed to be awakened in her own soul: Can, then, one human being pray for another?
32902The lady controlled herself and said, as she inclined her head somewhat backwards:"Shall you not find it hard to bear another name?"
32902The man had planted and fostered all this-- where was he now?
32902The man shook his head and said softly:--"Not yet, not yet; but perhaps you are a relation of the child?"
32902The men were still standing on the steps, and Eric was the first to speak, saying:--"Mother, you here?
32902The other is, Must a child of humanity, because destiny has once decided for him, become a lifelong victim to this determination?
32902The physician came out, and Sonnenkamp asked anxiously,--"How is he?
32902The ring on his thumb-- is that too a mystery, a deception?
32902The servant was astounded to see the gracious lady staring so fixedly, and now she asked him:--"Does it not hurt them?"
32902The servants stood around, and looked shyly at Eric; one of them saying,--Eric heard it very distinctly,--"Who knows whether he has not helped do it?"
32902The struggles of human life are hard enough, why must thou have, in addition, this wrestling with sordid want?
32902The three were speechless for some time, until Eric asked,--"Is there no hope?"
32902The two stood before Sonnenkamp, who had covered his face with his hand, and who now said,--"Are you waiting for my blessing?
32902The whole earth will be one tremendous mortgage, and mortgaged to whom?
32902The winged apparition grasped the hand of the speaker, and leading her aside down the stairs said,"Is it you, dear Lina?
32902The words of Fräulein Milch came back to him, and he added to them,--"And I am not called to tear off the mask from the faces of the maskers?"
32902The words were upon Manna''s lips,"And what if our father is fighting on the other side?"
32902The youth, what is he going to do?
32902Then Aristotle was free also to go wherever he pleased?
32902Then Sonnenkamp rose up; he glanced at the Prince, his eyes almost starting from their sockets, and shrieked out:--"What would you have?
32902Then is a people, that invents no culture, in connection with humanity, or in a condition of isolation?"
32902Then the riddle presented itself, How is one to educate a wealthy boy?
32902Then you expect still to be believed?
32902Then, pointing to the wall where the hunting- whip hung, he cried,--"And do you know what that is yonder?
32902There came in a straggling guest, and cried, out in the midst of the uproar,--"Have you heard?
32902There is yet something calling upon men, upon every one, and every one may listen to and follow after it, wherefore not also thou?
32902There was Pranken; here, the tutor''s mother-- what did it all mean?
32902There was a short pause; then his mother asked, with a sudden change of expression,--"Why do you not answer me?"
32902There was a young widow here: should he now go in?
32902There was every thing, just as it used to be, seeming to look at her with the question,"Where hast thou been this long time?"
32902There was great questioning among those who remained: Who is he?
32902There was his sister in a room above; what was to happen to her?
32902There was much that Eric wanted to say, and he might have explained many points; for what had Clodwig not discussed with him?
32902These men had broken into the rooms of the villa by night; what had he done?
32902They appeared to be so confidential and open with each other, and yet Sonnenkamp was continually asking himself: Do you know it?
32902They drove in silence through the city, each thinking: When, and under what circumstances, will you ever come here again?
32902They shook hands from their vehicles, and the doctor asked,--"How are Louise and the children?"
32902Think, if these four young creatures had had no such goal for their morning walk, none so safe and beautiful, what would it have been?
32902This is what I understand by that verse of the Bible,''What shall it profit thee, if thou shalt gain the whole world, and lose thine own soul?
32902This moneyed aristocracy stands between the nobility and the people, and I ask what it is to do?
32902This then is the shape he takes for you?
32902This trial?
32902This was a fixed notion in all brains, and where did it come from?
32902Those men, for having stolen gold, would be overtaken by the justice of the law; but for himself,--what would overtake him?
32902Thou art at home-- where is thy home?
32902Thou shalt, and thou shalt not?
32902Thus the children amused each other, and Roland again asked,--"Why must you go away so soon as to- morrow?"
32902To pass away the time?
32902To whom could he restore it?
32902To whom does all this belong?
32902To whom shall he complain?
32902Very assiduously did Sonnenkamp picture everything to himself-- and what will be in the paper in the morning?
32902Very well-- I have n''t blabbed any thing,--have I blabbed?"
32902WHERE ART THOU, ROLAND?
32902WHERE IS THE CITY?
32902Was Herr Sonnenkamp there too?"
32902Was he a coward?
32902Was he in truth to blame for Bella''s fall?
32902Was he to be over- reached?
32902Was he, in fact, misled by his newly awakened zeal, or was this only a nicely- woven veil, a mere outside show of virtue?
32902Was it all only a dream?
32902Was it because her self- love was wounded; was it because, for the first time, she had stretched out her hand and it was not taken?
32902Was it envy and dread of the little bird, whom evil tongues called a bird of prey; and has he not the right to live according to his might?
32902Was it for this that a child was cherished, guarded, and nurtured by all that was best, that he might end thus?
32902Was it for this that a mind was endowed with all the treasures of knowledge, that they might be turned into toys, and masks, and cloaks of baseness?
32902Was it for this that she had so long crushed every impulse of her heart?
32902Was it not better that a man should be the source of his own honor, than that he should allow it to be conferred upon him by another?
32902Was it possible that a young heart could already be so stony?
32902Was it possible?
32902Was it the Professorin, or I myself, who spoke yesterday of a jury?
32902Was it the cigar, or was it the painful position in which he felt himself placed, that caused the sweat to start out upon Eric''s forehead?
32902Was it worth while to have borne such varied experiences and struggles in order to turn a bit of the primeval forest into a cornfield?
32902Was not Frau Ceres beautiful and young?
32902Was not this the first time that she had ever stretched out her hand without its being grasped?
32902Was she not prudent and elegant in her deportment?
32902Was that a mere fancy, or was it a reality?
32902Was the man describing Clodwig''s purity, in order to show him how base would be the slightest approach to injuring or betraying such a friend?
32902Was the world after all not believe in her happiness?
32902Was the world mocking at him?
32902Was there not a sufficient weight on his spirits?
32902Was this all put on, in order to win more securely the rich heiress educated in the Convent?
32902Was this renegade captain now to change all this?
32902Was this the cause of her secluded life, of the eagerness to sacrifice herself and take the veil?
32902Was this woman encouraging her only in order to gain a firmer hold upon her?
32902We can not tell on that very account-- no,"she interrupted herself;"are you not very happy in having so true a friend in Eric?"
32902We love them as if they were our own blood, and they love us, do they not, children?"
32902We must learn our lessons; and cell is built upon cell, knowledge is added to knowledge, until-- who knows the end?
32902We must wait, who knows how long?
32902We will not be afraid, will we, mother?
32902We, have great obligations; and I demand that you should"--"Why do you hesitate?
32902Weidmann looked down, then up, and asked,--"Have you determined yet what you mean to do?"
32902Well, then, what would you do if you were told that that arrogant tutor aspired to win the hand of your betrothed?"
32902Were Eric and his family strangers?
32902Were Roland and his descendants to be impoverished again?
32902Were her evil thoughts suddenly to be realized?
32902Were you not, voluntarily, employed in the House of Correction?"
32902Were you too at the church?"
32902What am I to do now?"
32902What are convents?
32902What are millions?
32902What are seventy maimed, idle years?
32902What are the whole of you in comparison with this man?
32902What are these vessels?
32902What are they all saying?
32902What are you smiling at?"
32902What are you thinking of?"
32902What are your intentions, and those of your mother?"
32902What becomes of him?"
32902What becomes of these children?
32902What can I destroy here?
32902What can I do?"
32902What can a mother, what can parents do, if a child, grown up and free from control, wanders from the right path?
32902What can all education, all firm guidance effect, when one is not sure for a moment that some foreign influence is not working against it?
32902What can be our home?"
32902What can have happened at Wolfsgarten in these few hours since Clodwig''s death?
32902What can he want?
32902What can it be?
32902What can one undertake at such a time?"
32902What could there be in the world to come to him?
32902What did all this mean?
32902What did he have about him for them to rob?
32902What did he want of him?
32902What did it mean?
32902What did it mean?
32902What did self- sufficing nature, in this season of early spring love, care for these sounds?
32902What did she mean by that?"
32902What did that mean?
32902What did that mean?
32902What did these strangers mean by disposing of him so, and wishing to give him a career?
32902What do other people, yes, even the men, in higher spheres, and at the tankard?
32902What do these stories of the children in the wood, of Orestes and Iphigenia, have to do with us?
32902What do they mean?''"
32902What do we here?
32902What do you desire for yourself; what do you desire for me?"
32902What do you know of Herr Sonnenkamp?"
32902What do you know?
32902What do you look so angry for?"
32902What do you mean?
32902What do you say?"
32902What do you think of my raising the whole regiment in America?"
32902What do you think of slavery in general?"
32902What do you want?"
32902What do you wish?"
32902What does he want here?"
32902What does it do for the State?
32902What does it matter?
32902What does it mean, when one says,''I would like to be somebody else''?
32902What does it want to do with the gold?
32902What does it want?
32902What does the priest want?
32902What does this mean?
32902What does this mean?
32902What does this mean?
32902What does this mean?
32902What does this mean?
32902What does this mean?"
32902What does this woman want?
32902What effect could their thoughts and discussions, as they sat there on the hill- side, bring about concerning the vocation of humanity?
32902What forces men to this?
32902What good does it do them to insult us?"
32902What good would it do to have another person pray for me, and say of me and wish for me before God all sorts of good things?
32902What great maxim have riches established?
32902What had happened?
32902What had happened?
32902What had he become?
32902What had he done except honestly to tell her his convictions?
32902What had she fallen upon?
32902What has America to do with the young man?
32902What has happened to her?
32902What has happened?"
32902What has life to offer?
32902What hast thou done?
32902What have I done, she thought, that he should read me such a lesson about no one claiming exemption from the rule of morality?
32902What have you to say?"
32902What help is she to me, when the crushing conviction of imperfection, of perdition, of guilt comes upon me and takes me captive?
32902What if he were coming to arrest his father?
32902What if this boy were related to him by blood, and he were to find here his missing uncle?
32902What in this world is bad?
32902What is a daughter?
32902What is a man to do in the world?
32902What is all our teaching and preparation for?
32902What is all this antiquarian rummaging?
32902What is all this?
32902What is his character?"
32902What is home to us?
32902What is honor?
32902What is it all for?
32902What is it at evening?
32902What is it that leads me thither, to stake my whole being in a great crisis of human history?
32902What is it, then?"
32902What is it?"
32902What is life?
32902What is life?
32902What is meant by low- spirited?
32902What is that?
32902What is that?
32902What is that?
32902What is that?
32902What is the matter?"
32902What is the meaning of all this?
32902What is the meaning of this?
32902What is the picture here for?
32902What is the use of this fatuous renewing of humanity?
32902What is the use of this picking up of old buried trash, this perpetual thinking and talking about humanity and progress?
32902What is the world?
32902What is there left of the whole show?
32902What is there then in this whole affair so discouraging?
32902What is thy life to thee now, thou poor butterfly?
32902What is to become of me?
32902What is your purpose in coming into this house?"
32902What kind of life will there be established?
32902What lasting impression could be made?
32902What lay behind these smiling, gaily- dressed exteriors, and the friendly greetings they exchanged with one another?
32902What made him think at that moment of Herr Sonnenkamp?
32902What manner of man was this?
32902What matter if those on board were strangers?
32902What might that mean?
32902What more can come?
32902What more could be said and done on a winter''s afternoon in the snowy, deserted streets of the capital?
32902What more could he desire?
32902What must I do for you?
32902What name shall we give to the knight who has set our Manna free?"
32902What next?
32902What next?
32902What next?"
32902What now are they to do?
32902What now does the world give me?
32902What now shall the boy do?"
32902What of that?
32902What power has brought her here?
32902What power was weaving it over him, and depriving him of his own personality?
32902What request?"
32902What right had he to put into words what she did not choose to express?
32902What right have you, more than another, to say,''Intrust your possessions to us, that we may dispose of them as we think fit''?
32902What shall they be when they return?
32902What she thought, what she meditated, who can tell?
32902What should he, what could he do?
32902What should now become of him?
32902What sort of a life was this?
32902What sort of a race was this, they would say, which built a church with the profits of a lottery?
32902What suggests these words, and brings them so clearly before her eyes?
32902What then are we who live only in the region of thought?
32902What then remained for him?
32902What then?
32902What thoughts might now be stirring this soul?
32902What to me is the world''s division of time?
32902What uniform have you chosen?
32902What voice was that?
32902What was Eric to do?
32902What was I going to say to you?
32902What was all that he had enjoyed in life compared with the anguish of this moment?
32902What was life to me?
32902What was passing within her?
32902What was required of him?
32902What was the little cloister- plant to him?
32902What was the maiden to him?
32902What was the matter, then?
32902What was the use now of wishing?
32902What was there still to be developed?
32902What was to become of him?
32902What was to become of the latter, if he was not raised to the nobility?
32902What watch- word can they inscribe upon it which shall unite them one and all?
32902What will Pranken do?
32902What will Roland now do?
32902What will become of the house?
32902What will he find?
32902What will he have?
32902What will restrain or draw him onward?
32902What will they say in the convent?
32902What words had she had to hear?
32902What would be the use?
32902What would come of it?
32902What would it be?
32902What would now become of Roland?
32902What would you do, if you had so much money?"
32902What year and what vintage do you prefer?
32902What''s the matter?"
32902What''s the meaning of this?
32902What''s the use?
32902What?
32902What?
32902What?"
32902When Eric had sat down, Roland got up and asked:--"Herr President, may I be permitted to say one word more?"
32902When I introduced Captain Dournay to him, he said:--"Dournay-- Dournay?"
32902When I look over my own life, what is it?
32902When a man has laid open his whole history to another, he often seems to himself emptied, hollow, and void,--what is left of him?
32902When a person is to be surprised in the evening by a demonstration of respect, what does he do in the morning?
32902When he said:--"Yes, Fräulein, I''ve been a simpleton, and am very sorry for it,"she asked him:--"What have you been doing?"
32902When he woke up-- and his first thought was,"How is Roland this morning?"
32902When she had ended, the Superior said,--"So you have not come to do penance?"
32902When the first piece came to an end, Bella asked:--"Fräulein Dournay, do you ever play accompaniments for your nephew?"
32902When will you sit to me?"
32902When, where, did they speak and think of the ballet?
32902Whence came the vision?
32902Where are their homes?
32902Where are they hurrying to?
32902Where are you staying so long?"
32902Where did you find out about that man?
32902Where did you hear about it?
32902Where does this come from?
32902Where had he left the dog?
32902Where has she been?
32902Where is Manna, I wonder?
32902Where is he now?
32902Where is he, I wonder?"
32902Where is it, the great all- liberating power?
32902Where is my wife?"
32902Where is the dear child?"
32902Where is the harm?
32902Where shall he turn?
32902Where should he bestow it?
32902Where was Eric now?
32902Where was he?
32902Where was he?
32902Where will he go?
32902Where, in these times, is there a single mouth which gives a response in the name of the gods?
32902Where?
32902Wherefore should he devote himself to the restricted limits of some regular pursuit, in order to make money?
32902Wherefore?
32902While he was thinking about it, Roland said,--"I do n''t know why, but I did not feel comfortable while the Countess was looking at me, did you?
32902Whither should he turn?
32902Whither?
32902Who am I?"
32902Who are they?
32902Who are you?"
32902Who can name all the elements which mould and build up a human soul?
32902Who can say I am that I am?
32902Who can say how much of what Eric cherished in Roland has grown and thriven up to this very hour?
32902Who can say?
32902Who can tell us the name of Apollo''s teacher of music, or with what chief- butler Ganymede served his apprenticeship?
32902Who can tell what transpires in a human being?
32902Who could have foretold then that he would be standing here a mourner at the grave of the mother of his betrothed, and of his pupil?
32902Who could indemnify him for the captivity he had to undergo before he was pronounced innocent?"
32902Who did that to you?
32902Who guarantees this?
32902Who has a right to it?
32902Who has made judges of you?
32902Who is able to tell how soon I may die?
32902Who is freeing the serfs and the slaves?
32902Who is it?"
32902Who is laughing behind them?
32902Who is that?
32902Who is there that can measure this action and re- action of body and soul?
32902Who is this unknown companion?
32902Who knew what else she might have got out of Sonnenkamp, and others besides?
32902Who knew whether this reply was the exact truth?
32902Who knows but that he wants to borrow money of the Lady Superior?"
32902Who knows but that on the road she might suddenly become distracted and break out into a fit of insanity?
32902Who knows what he did?"
32902Who knows what his neighbor cherishes in his heart?
32902Who knows what the man- eater is going to do with_ him_ now?
32902Who knows whether angels could stand the teachers''examination?
32902Who knows whether he would not have taken his violin and played for the people, if Eric had not come?
32902Who knows whether, through some secret working, every thing did not become publicly known in the capital in the very hour of thy perfidy?
32902Who knows with what sacrifices?
32902Who owns them all?
32902Who shall judge?
32902Who there thinks how much sorrow, how much weariness, anguish, and care, dwell within the houses they pass by?
32902Who told you about him?
32902Who was your father, is he still alive?"
32902Who will ask about people whom they have dismissed?
32902Who will dwell in it?
32902Whom do you propose as members of this moral jury, as we may call it?
32902Whom?"
32902Why are people so distant?
32902Why are there no Frenchmen?
32902Why are you willing to be used by this Herr Sonnenkamp?"
32902Why ask advice of another human being?
32902Why ca n''t I say this too?
32902Why callest thou me good?
32902Why can he not, even now, go for her and bring her out?
32902Why can nothing be carried out purely to perfection?
32902Why could he not go to her, embrace and kiss her, and play with her long dark hair as he used to do?
32902Why couldst thou not wait, and open at the very instant when the Prince was standing here?
32902Why deny the natural, open, pitiless mastership?
32902Why did I send for you?
32902Why did Knopf, with a triumphant smile, tell me that he did n''t wake me on purpose?
32902Why did her father write nothing of Pranken?
32902Why did n''t Eric give a reason for his returning so suddenly?
32902Why did the Prince have it in his cabinet?
32902Why did they not open my veins?
32902Why did this trouble him?
32902Why do n''t they leave me in peace?"
32902Why do you hold back?"
32902Why do you make up such a melancholy face?"
32902Why do you require all the Jews, collectively and individually, to stand on the side of moral principle?
32902Why do you so torment your soul, and make it wander from house to house, from man to man, crushed, begging, and imploring forgiveness?"
32902Why does such a call come too late?
32902Why does the word of that opponent in the New World hover around him to- day, today, as it did yesterday?
32902Why had Eric never said a word to him about it?
32902Why had Eric not shared with him in the joy of this dream?
32902Why had he not followed her then?
32902Why had he not spoken to the old man?
32902Why had she been so thoughtless as to connect herself with such a mysterious and disintegrated family?
32902Why had this lasted so long?
32902Why has this poor rich boy not the blessedness of a mother''s love?
32902Why is he so anxious to get the newspaper to- day?
32902Why is it so reserved and full of secresy?
32902Why is not the ideal of life also to be made light of, and why is not all feeling only a plausible lie?"
32902Why is the word father so harrowing to my soul?
32902Why is there so long delay?
32902Why is this?
32902Why is this?
32902Why is this?
32902Why is this?
32902Why must every modern man become something special?
32902Why must it come at such a time?
32902Why must the dog grow blind?
32902Why must they deprive me of my beautiful season of betrothal?
32902Why need the present be empty and barren?
32902Why not as readily or as reluctantly as from any one else, from Clodwig, for instance?"
32902Why not do it?
32902Why not have Griffin in it?
32902Why not hurry and scuffle with the rest?
32902Why not in peace, in love, in quiet cares?
32902Why not indulge in a little harmless jesting, perhaps even admit the excitement of some feeling?
32902Why not openly acknowledge that which they acknowledge in secret?
32902Why not?"
32902Why require anything further of it?
32902Why should I ever be alone again for an instant?"
32902Why should I not?"
32902Why should Manna go to the convent?
32902Why should Manna wish to re- enter the convent?
32902Why should he be ennobled; why should he enter the Court circle, and put himself under a lasting obligation?
32902Why should he embark in a discussion which would only lengthen out the scene?
32902Why should he see this night- side of human nature?
32902Why should not that be had for money?
32902Why should not the young man be simply an agriculturist?"
32902Why should not these historical conditions be constantly reversed?"
32902Why should not these trees, these meadows, these plantations put on new bloom and verdure, now that they were his?
32902Why should not this Cabinetsrath and his spouse make some profit out of their position?
32902Why should they less than the professedly pious English?
32902Why should they see a troubled countenance?
32902Why should this man keep a poisoned dagger?
32902Why should you be disobliging and ungrateful?"
32902Why so?"
32902Why the cask?"
32902Why then did not the Church ordain the removal of slavery?"
32902Why was it not to be?
32902Why was it?
32902Why were people to be made unhappy because he has lost his toes?
32902Why were you so simple, so considerate, and so trustful?
32902Why will they not marry poor men?
32902Why will you stand aside?
32902Why?"
32902Why?"
32902Will he not always feel himself bound, under obligation to serve, and often ill at ease?"
32902Will it be so with Roland too?
32902Will not Roland be stirred up to fresh questioning concerning the negroes?
32902Will the success be any better this time?
32902Will you allow me a brief and concise diagnosis?"
32902Will you do that?"
32902Will you enjoy yourself now at home, or do n''t you know anything about your honors?"
32902Will you have coffee or tea?"
32902Will you listen to me?"
32902Will you not sit down?"
32902Will you promise me something?"
32902Will you relinquish all your wealth, whether justly or unjustly acquired?
32902Will you?"
32902Will you?"
32902Wilt thou too, go hence weeping, because thou canst not give up the riches of the world?
32902With blessed satisfaction she surveys now the past, and looks forward to the future in her son, and what are her deriders?
32902With his hand upon the cover, he asked,--"What do you think that Franklin would now say to you?"
32902World, what do you want of me?
32902Would every thing have been better, would the dreadful thing not have happened, if thou hadst remained true?
32902Would it not be beautiful to plunge into the waves and swim?
32902Would n''t you, Musselina?"
32902Would not that have been much better?"
32902Would not this entertainment so pompously announced end in humiliation?
32902Would they really come?
32902Would this really be better than musing by one''s self?
32902Would you be willing to show me what our splendid brother has written of this Herr Dournay?"
32902Would you believe, Fräulein, that almost all the hair we see on ladies''heads is false or padded?
32902Would you have believed that you should ever have danced with your winged apparition?
32902Would you like to be a baroness?
32902You are a----?"
32902You are not in a hurry?
32902You believe that the past can be atoned for by an effort of the will; and do you really believe this man will repent?
32902You came quick to- day; where did you meet my messenger?"
32902You come into an inn, weary after a wide survey from a mountain top, and involuntarily you lay hold of a newspaper,--why is this?
32902You do n''t take it amiss that I did n''t appear to see you?
32902You do not think it is necessary to divide thus with the Cabinetsräthin?"
32902You have come to me then, to learn, at the very last hour, what you ought to do?"
32902You have heard of the fate of Captain Brown at Harper''s Ferry?"
32902You have held many slaves, have you any still?"
32902You have proved yourself loyal to my father: as his child, I shall value you, and remember you with gratitude; but"--"But what?"
32902You have, so much I know, busied yourself chiefly with history?"
32902You journey with us, do you not?"
32902You know the steward of the''Lorelei?''
32902You smile?
32902You stretch out your hand for reconciliation, but of what sort?
32902You think that, do you?
32902You understand me?"
32902You understand me?"
32902You want mustard for the digestion of heavy dinners, do you not?"
32902You wanted honor,--you wanted to be talked about, and now they do talk,--but how?
32902You will help me, will you not?"
32902You will not abandon us?"
32902You will remain with us, will you not?
32902You will therefore discover this for me, dear Dournay, will you not?
32902You wo n''t be a nun, will you?
32902You''ve been in the convent, and is''t a fact that you want to be a nun?"
32902You, as the son of a Professor of à � sthetics, perhaps consider this very barbarous?"
32902_ A propos_, how is Fräulein Sonnenkamp?"
32902a teacher then, and perhaps my competitor?"
32902a tutor again?
32902and Pranken, on the other hand: Do you know that I know it?
32902and are the lessons learned there?"
32902and for what is my life on the earth?
32902and in what does it consist?"
32902and now, what were they?
32902and what then are you?
32902and why?
32902and why?
32902and you too?"
32902and your name is Roland?"
32902are you the man?"
32902can any man?
32902can you refuse such a one?
32902cried the Major, in a tone of mingled scolding and caress,"where have you been again, you disorderly vagabond, who can tell where?
32902had he not bid defiance to the world, and was he now to be afraid of this tutor''s family?
32902how could you forget this?
32902how has this image so suddenly assumed this likeness?
32902how is he?"
32902how will it be with you then?
32902if such a man"--"Well?
32902in a word, his elevation to the rank of noble?"
32902is it for this that I am thrust out of both,--to call a hypocritical rascal my son?
32902is that your feeling?
32902not at all?"
32902or did, Bella thus act only to make less marked her intimacy with himself, which she desired not to display before others?
32902or has the Countess Bella arrived?
32902or have I no longer any right to command, that you remain so motionless?"
32902or if Eric would have nothing more to do with him?
32902or is there none?
32902replied the Doctor,"who knows?
32902said Bella, throwing back her head, for a voice within her said: Why shouldest thou not be also young for once?
32902said he to himself,"how could you ever have such a thought as that?"
32902said the physician, turning suddenly to Eric;"what would you do, if you had a million to give away?"
32902see, I''ve no teeth left, and what will Bella say to it?''
32902shall you ever carry such a light- hearted youth again?"
32902the Professorin?"
32902the voices repeated; and the question was asked for the third time,"Will you renounce all, and become naked, poor, and helpless?"
32902there lie the fields, the vineyards,--whose are they?
32902training thyself and thy recruits to kill thy fellow- men in the most scientific manner?''"
32902vexes you?"
32902we?
32902what are ruined castles?
32902what ca n''t be got for money?"
32902what can I do to make people angry?
32902what did this restless fluttering from one subject to another mean?
32902what do you know?
32902what do you mean?
32902what do you mean?"
32902what do you want?"
32902what do you want?"
32902what have I forgotten?"
32902what is the apparition of a girl with wings?
32902what?
32902what?
32902when we were in your father''s library, Roland said,''In all these books is there a fate to compare with ours?''"
32902where am I?"
32902where?
32902where?
32902who are you?
32902who has built a house out of these stones, has made this bed?
32902who may this be?"
32902whom do you wish to see?"
32902why can you not have the same feeling?
32902why did he go among our enemies?"
32902why do men strive for riches, and sell their own brothers?
32902why is it?"
32902why must I have this knowledge so young, so early; why must I experience and overcome all this?"
32902why must I labor in the service of others?
32902why not destiny?
32902why then?"
32902will the haughty young nobleman have a personal struggle with him?
32902will you be guilty of the death of your father?"
32902yes, why should n''t he be timid?
32902you here, Herr Knopf?"
32902you men are dreadful; I have always thought that you----"She stopped and Eric asked:--"That I-- what of me?"
32902you two?"
32902you two?"
32902you want one thing more?"
32902you yourself not even know that?"
32902you?"
32902you?"
32902your cousin?"
