34792The photograph fell from one of your pockets, Señor Manuel?"
34792The ragged troops of the revolutionists must be fed, and what easier way to do it?
34792Then Ronie said:"Well, what do you think of it, Jack?"
34792Then he asked, as if a new thought had come suddenly to him:"What do they say of us in the Great Republic?"
34792Then, addressing the Venezuelan, he said:"How far is it to the nearest town?"
34792What are your names?"
34792What can be on foot now?"

34792What if the latter had five thousand men under his command?
34792What would you suggest that we do first?"
34792When shall I meet him again?"
34792Where away?"
34792Where can one find a grander combination of sea, plain, valley and mountain?
34792Where could he be all this time?
34792Which way shall we go, sergeant?"
34792Whither do you wish to go?"

34792Who would you see in Caracas?"
34792Why is it done?"
34792Would he let the Americanos have horses to carry important news to the revolutionists near Caracas?
34792You appear to be one of the crew; why is this so?"
34792You are not satisfied with the appearance of the_ Libertador_?"
34792You understand?"
34792You were scouts for El Capitan?"
