9968You want to be set to work, eh? 9968 You''ll be content to stay at the shop now, wo n''t you, Frank?"
9968A look of surprise came over Johnston''s face, and, more to himself than the others, he muttered in a low tone,--"Chore- boy, eh?
9968And when the other fellows saw how snug I was, they vowed they''d have a soft bed too; so what do you think they did?
9968Anybody inside?"
9968But Damase-- what of Damase?
9968But what kind of work is he to go at?
9968But what would Johnston do in the midst of this tumult?
9968Calling Frank into his corner one evening, he said,--"How would you like, my lad, to have some of the out- door work for a change?"
9968Could n''t you say them here before you start?"
9968Did he touch you?"
9968Does that suit you?"
9968Funny name, is n''t it?
9968Had not this very thing been on his conscience for weeks past?
9968Has n''t he come back too?"
9968Have you got him?"

9968He seems rather light for chopping, does n''t he?"
9968His father was religious; and who was stronger, braver, or more manly than his father?

9968I''m quite old enough, ai n''t I?"
9968If Frank was proud of his big convert, who can blame him?
9968Is that the way you find him?"
9968Johnston?"
9968Looking round about with a bewildered expression, he asked anxiously,--"Where is Mr. Johnston?
9968Now, is n''t there something you would like to have a taste of while you have the chance?"
9968Oh why did not Johnston appear?
9968So soon as they came in sight, Frank ran to meet them, calling out eagerly,--"Is he all right?
9968Surely you wo n''t try it again, will you?"
9968Tell me, wo n''t you?"
9968The wolves might find you out, and how could you defend yourself then?"
9968Ver is yer?

9968Will you mind having to go to work?"
9968Would he mind?
9968Would you mind reading your Bible to me?
9968but what''s set you so suddenly on fire?
9968growled Johnston, in his fiercest tones,"what are you about?
9968he cried, his face aflame with anxious love, as he clasped Frank passionately in his arms,"are you hurt at all?
27251And you never told me you was writing, mother? 27251 Be you there?"

27251Wanting me?
27251Well, Anne, what is it? 27251 What''s this?
27251What? 27251 Why, Miss Peace,"cried Jenny, frightened at the sight of tears in those steadfast eyes,"What is the matter?
27251Why, mother, how did you get this cold? 27251 Why, mother, what is the matter?
27251Woodbox?
27251You do n''t tell me she wants to git him for herself? 27251 You''ve got something that you''ll never get well of?
27251You, Mr. Lindsay, wanting me?
27251Your leg hurting you?
27251Your mother''s deafness,the minister put in, hurriedly,"seems suddenly increased: probably a cold,--""Was you speakin''to me, Rose Ellen?"
27251A friend, twenty- five dollars?"
27251Ai n''t it awful?
27251And you know it is n''t that I do n''t think the world of Tudie, and you, too; now, do n''t you?"
27251And you say she was real put about, do ye, at the picnic being put off?"
27251Besides, who was to take care of David, she''d like to know?
27251But now,-- And what was it that happened only the other day, here in the village?
27251Could those harpies be right?
27251David go down there, and she and the children stay perishing at home?
27251Did he want a wife?
27251Do n''t that set good, Delia?"
27251Do you mean to say he ai n''t sick?
27251Had the Blackburnian Warbler been seen in this neighbourhood, as he had been told?
27251Have ye had the doctor?"
27251How can I serve you?
27251I do n''t imagine Delia will ever come back, do you, Jenny?"
27251I''m kin to David, you know, so take it by and large, doctor, it doos seem like a privilege, does n''t it?"
27251Is n''t it looking pretty?"
27251Is n''t that providential, now?"
27251Is there anything more I can do for you before I go?"
27251It should be found in a small fork of a tree, should it?
27251Mis''Porter''s folks, who had a place there?
27251My brethren, what shall I do?"
27251Oh, ai n''t that handsome?
27251The horrors that those harpies suggested,--could there be truth in them?
27251There has been a meetin'', you say?
27251Was Mrs. Mellen deaf?
27251Was it all scandal and hatefulness and untruth?
27251Was it likely that the creature had any appreciation of the beauties of nature?
27251Was that what was the matter with him?
27251Was that why he went about all day and every day, these last weeks, feeling as if half of him were asleep?
27251Was there anything true in the world?
27251What did he know?
27251What did it all mean?
27251What did you do that for, and spoil your tea?"
27251What do you mean this time, I_ should_ like to know?
27251What do you think, judge?"
27251What had he had in his whole life, save kindness and a sheltered home, and then study, and a little divinity, and a little science?
27251What had he to say to his people, when it came to the real, terrible things of life?
27251What was there in the sound of wheels?
27251What were they saying now?
27251What''s roses for but to smell?
27251When was he took sick?

27251Why should the bird prefer a moonshiny night?
27251Why, I''ve got palpitations to that degree,--don''t s''pose there''s a robber in the house, do ye?
27251You''ve had bad news, Miss Peace, have you?
27251and how''s your mother?
27251cried Miss Anne, her kind face clouding over;"that does seem too bad, do n''t it?
27251do you mean to say--""What_ do_ you mean to say, Mis''Mellen?"
27251five or six feet from the ground, near a brook?
27251have you grown so''t I did n''t know you?
27251it-- it must be gettin''near meetin''-time, is n''t it?"
27251that''s enough!--my stars, Jenny, what do you think my mouth''s made of?"
27251why do n''t you answer me?"
27251why was she gone?
27251why was she not here to show him the way, as she promised, to the place where she had seen the rare visitor?
43067And how are things in the valley?
43067Are there any other tribes she would have to pass through on the way?
43067Are you all right, Juan?
43067But how can they have got there, Antonio?
43067But what do you think of doing in Valparaiso?
43067But who is the man, and what could have been his motive for thus attacking you?
43067Do you expect an attack, master?
43067Do you mean to go with me, señor?
43067Do you see that white speck in front of the dark patch of trees? 43067 Do you suspect anyone?"
43067Does your father often come down here himself, Don Juan?
43067Have the horses gone far, do you think, Juan?
43067Have these fellows guns?
43067Have you any luggage that I can send for?
43067How do the people live?
43067How do you mean, Antonio?
43067How far are the horses?
43067How far do you think the Apaches would follow?
43067How far is it before we get beyond the settled country?
43067How far is this place from here?
43067How far would that be from here?
43067How is it that the Mexican government does not try and get rid of these Indians? 43067 How is your arm, Don Juan?"
43067How on earth does he know that?
43067I must apologize for not having asked you before,Señor Guzman said to Harland, when the wounds were bandaged,"but have you supped?"
43067I see all that, Antonio, and I have no thought of making my way up by the steps; the question is, could it be climbed elsewhere? 43067 I suppose the red- skins took it, Sancho?"
43067I suppose you breed a good many up there?
43067I understand that,Juan said,"but how do you propose doing it?"
43067Is it Will,she asked,"or am I dreaming?"
43067Is it necessary to keep watch?
43067Is it possible, Philip?
43067Is that so?
43067Is there anything to be done, do you think, Antonio?
43067It must be a large valley to be capable of sustaining so vast a herd as that of your father?
43067Now can you tell me what has happened?
43067Now, Juan,Harland said, as they sipped their chocolate,"who do you believe set those ruffians on to you?
43067Now, señor, will you go on to where the horses are? 43067 Shall we do anything with the body, señor?"
43067Shall we do anything with these fellows? 43067 She would not be able to turn, after she had crossed, and come down on the opposite bank?"
43067The idea of your leaving us is altogether preposterous, Will; do you think that we should for a moment let you go? 43067 The principal thing that I wanted to ask you is, do you know whether the señorita was killed, or whether they have kept her to carry off?
43067Was the bear too much for the two Indians?
43067Well, Juan, how do you feel now?
43067Were they thieves that attacked you, think you, Don Juan?
43067What are our Indians?
43067What does he say, Antonio?
43067What is it, Antonio?
43067What is it, chief?
43067What was the firing?
43067What will you do then, señor?
43067Where am I?
43067Where are you going now?
43067Where are you staying?
43067Where is Pedro?
43067Where is the man you shot, Will? 43067 Why should we throw away our lives?"
43067Will not this prevent your riding for a day or two, Juan?
43067Will they take to the water, Antonio?
43067You are going to scale the cliff?
43067You do n''t think that there is any fear of there being any red- skins on the farther side?
43067You find mules better than horses for wagons?
43067And now about yourself; tell me, frankly, what are you thinking of doing?
43067And you, señor, how do you come to speak English?"
43067Are you alone?"
43067Are you not one of us completely?"
43067But where are your other two men?"
43067Did she escape them?"
43067Do you intend to continue at sea, or are you thinking of returning to your home, where, no doubt, you would be gladly received by your father?"
43067Have you fishing- lines?"
43067How about the party by the river?"
43067How had it best be done?"
43067How long do you think that the Indians will remain in the valley?"
43067How many are there of you?"
43067How many men have we with guns?"
43067How many sleep there?"
43067How would they get across the river?"
43067Is it you, Tonio?"
43067Is she safe?"
43067Is there any place where she could have left the valley?"
43067Now, señor, may I ask the name of my preserver?
43067Now, señor, what do you propose to do next?
43067Well, we will think no more of it at present; but what did you do with his body?"
43067Were you an officer on your ship?"
43067What ideas have you in your mind?
43067What tribe do these Indians on the other side of the river belong to?"
43067What would she be likely to put in the basket?"
43067What would the señor and Juan say on their return?
43067Where, indeed, would you go?
43067Why did you not tell me last night?
43067Will did not answer, but Antonio, who spoke their language fairly, replied,"Have you not heard the news?"
43067Will you ask if the cave- dwellers poison their arrows?"
43067Will you ask the chief to send down a dozen of his warriors?
15961And Rose,said Helen, in a quiet voice,"did you really think I ever intended to marry Edward Lynne?"
15961And all this owing to the mere circumstance, think you, of situation?
15961And do you hold the same faith still Rose? 15961 And have n''t you one to leave me for the curate?"
15961And what will you be?
15961And why did you not answer that a country constitution gave you strength to sustain them? 15961 And you?"
15961Bless me, Miss Bond, is it you? 15961 But why do you not break open the spinnet?
15961But,said the gentleman, in a tone of the deepest interest,"shall you really return without regret?"
15961But_ where_ is the original?
15961Had Miss Bond heard that Mr. Alfred Bond had come over to England?
15961Have you got the key of the old spinnet, aunt? 15961 I am very sorry to wound you; but can not you understand?"
15961I can not,said Sarah Bond to Mr. Goulding,"untie this; can you?"
15961If the will be forged, who is the forger? 15961 Injure me, dear aunt, how?"
15961Is Miss Adams at home?
15961Is not this provoking?
15961My dear John,said the doctor''s wife,"when does the new carriage come home?
15961My dear Miss Bond, you are not ill, I hope?
15961Now, is not this provoking?
15961Of some one, Rose, who took advantage of your ignorance of the world-- of your want of knowledge of society?
15961Regret nothing?
15961Then why should I not spend it as pleases me best? 15961 They are fine children-- are they not, sir?"
15961This from you, who love a lowly state?
15961Well, and what more is there to see, unless Mr. Alfred Bond denies his relative''s power to make a will?
15961What purpose?
15961What, sir, when I told her to be content with the little pink gingham?
15961Which road shall I take, Miss?
15961Who did you say?
15961Why did you not put me in mind to write to Mr. Lycight, Mabel?
15961Why do you call her poor?
15961Why?
15961Without regret? 15961 You confess this to me?"
15961----?"
15961And if he does,"questioned the maiden,"and if he does,_ what is that to me_?"
15961And then I must educate my children;_ that_ is an imperative duty, is it not?"
15961And when I am a great lady, Rosey, who but you, sweet cousin, will be next my heart?"
15961Bond;"what noise is that?"
15961But where''s the use of thinking of_ that_, or any thing else,"he exclaimed with a sudden burst of passion,"where a woman is concerned?
15961Can you, my dear Mary, restrain your feelings, and give me your attention?"
15961Did I say that one day after another this was the case?
15961Did Mr. Goulding like cottage flowers best?"
15961Did you not hear the wife of a mere city baronet inquire if late hours did not injure a country constitution; and see the air with which she said it?"
15961Do you think I am a heathen?"
15961Has not his want of prudent forethought been the ruin of his own children?
15961Have you seen the will?"
15961He continued--"Did she leave no message, speak no word, say nothing, to be said to me?"
15961He had no sister; why should she not be to him a sister?
15961He would only ask her one little question; had she ever seen her father counterfeit different hands?
15961Hope for the best, and prepare"--"For what, sir?"
15961How could he live on less?"
15961I see your shadow, dark as it is; have you brought a candle?
15961I shall have no heartaches-- suffer no affronts?"
15961In the name of all that is right, dearest Helen, why do you not assert your dignity as a woman, instead of standing upon your rank?
15961Is it forty years?"
15961Is it not so?"
15961Is it to be borne that I would seek to rob_ your_ child of her happiness?
15961Is that Brindle''s bark?"
15961Is there any reason why I should not?"
15961Let me, however, entreat you to bear up"--"Against what, sir?"
15961No, Mabel; I can neither open the spinnet nor dance quadrilles; so you have been twice refused this morning; a novelty, is it not, my dearest Mabel?"
15961Now, please, reverend sir, do speak, did n''t she look beautiful?"
15961She had been his confidant-- she believed it was a jest-- how could her cousin do otherwise than love Edward Lynne?
15961She hastened to his side;"Dear father, what do you want?"
15961She knew that Mr. Alfred Bond was the heir- at- law to the property bequeathed her father; but what of that?
15961Take her away altogether from this home-- take her"--"Where?"
15961Think, has not what you have seen, and shared in, made you ambitious of something beyond a country life?
15961Was it really true, that having achieved the wealth, the distinction she panted for, she was still anxious to mount higher?
15961We shall be able to make her very comfortable, shall we not?"
15961What am I now?"
15961What could he save out of five hundred a- year?
15961What family so situated ever had any influence beyond what they absolutely needed for themselves?
15961When they reached the commencement of the village, Edward said, for the fifth or sixth time,"Then you will go, Helen?"
15961Where are you?
15961Where could be the reason-- the motive?
15961Who knows what may be found here?"
15961Why could she not live upon the''fine folk''she was always throwing in her face?"
15961Why not, as a woman, boldly and bravely revert to your former position, and at the same time prove your determination to support your present?
15961Will you taste mine, sir?"
15961Will you, dear Rosa, and be my own little girl?"
15961Would any one there do a gratuitous service to persons they had never seen?
15961You did not mean_ that_ surely-- you could not mean that, my lady-- could they not go with me?"
15961_ Where_ is that will to be found?
15961and will my parents ever recover the anxiety, the pain, the sacrifices, brought on by one man''s culpable neglect?
15961are you more happy than your humble cousin?"
15961exclaimed John;"do I not make the money myself?"
15961exclaimed the pretty Mabel;"why did not her servants do it?"
15961herself?"
15961lady dear,"exclaimed a crone, rising from a grave where she had been sitting,"do n''t you remember old Betty?
15961my own dear mother, will not_ that_ be nice?
15961she answered,"has not perseverance in the desire obtained the moss roses?"
15961she exclaimed;"how can I sleep?
15961she repeated;"Ivers must carry all before him; and_ who knows what may follow_?"
15961she said, when poor Rose hinted that in a short time she must return,"how can you think of it?--how can you leave me in an_ enemy''s country_?
15961what have you done?"
60633A big bear?
60633AY, WHERE WERE THEY?
60633And finding us gone, what then?
60633And suppose you did not; are you the sort of warrior that shoots another in the back?
60633And why not?
60633Are you hurt, my darling Edith?
60633Are you strong enough to stand this hard ride?
60633Ay, where were they?
60633But how are we to find them?
60633But how are we to know such fords?
60633But suppose you and I or my father meet, or you have the chance to harm my mother and little sister, Edith?
60633But what meant your course toward me yesterday? 60633 But what will become of you?"
60633Can it be that I have shaken them off at last?
60633Can it be that you have scented a deep place in front and want to save me from a bath?
60633Can you stand it, father?
60633Do n''t you catch on? 60633 Have you noticed those bucks on the top of the ridge yonder?"
60633How did you find it out?
60633How do you do?
60633How do you feel, father?
60633How far are we from Wounded Knee?
60633How long have they been there?
60633How many do you think are out there now?
60633How was it, Nick?
60633How?
60633I never dreamed of this; can you forgive this dreadful mistake?
60633I wonder what has become of them?
60633I''ll do anything I can, my lad, but what is it?
60633If I only knew where they were, if alive, I would guide this escort from Wounded Knee to their help----What was that?
60633In what way?
60633Is he better and stronger now?
60633Is he not in danger?
60633Is he?
60633It can have but one meaning,muttered Brinton, with a throbbing heart;"someone is in peril: can it be_ they_?"
60633Kindled for what purpose?
60633Must we cross that?
60633No; look at that thin line of smoke; do n''t you see something peculiar?
60633Oh, there is Wolf Ear?
60633Oh, where is he? 60633 That''s what I would like to know; I am worried to death, Nick; ca n''t you help us?"
60633They are on the watch for us, of course; how far away do you judge the trail to be?
60633Thus we meet, Brinton,he said in his low voice;"will you come forward and shake hands?"
60633True; but how can such a thing succeed? 60633 We are enemies"CHAPTER V."What will be their next step?"
60633We ca n''t tell about that; are you stronger?
60633Well, Wolf Ear, I can only say I am sorry that you should have been carried away by this error----"By what right do you call it error?
60633What are they doing?
60633What are you doing here, Nick?
60633What are you saying?
60633What do you propose to do?
60633What does it matter,asked his mother in turn,"so long as we can not see them?
60633What has that to do with this?
60633What is the matter, Hugh?
60633What is the matter?
60633What is the meaning of that?
60633What is this revelation?
60633What made you leave before I got back?
60633What will Brinton think? 60633 What will be their next step?"
60633Where is it?
60633Where were the squaws and children during the fight?
60633Where?
60633Whom do you suppose I saw?
60633Why do you do that, Hugh?
60633Why should I shake hands?
60633Why, Brint, is that you?
60633Will they suspect that we have been this way?
60633You believe in the coming of One to save your people-- why should not we place faith in the coming of our Messiah?
60633You grieve me more than I can express,replied the father;"are you sure you are not mistaken?"
60633You must be mistaken; for, if that were the case, why did he ride out here alone? 60633 Ah me, what will become of father, ill and weak as he is?
60633An expression of scorn passed over the face of the scout as he made answer--"Where was they?
60633Ay, where were they?
60633But how are we to escape them?"
60633But what is the other point you wish me to hold in mind?"
60633But where are the folk?"
60633But where?
60633But who can say how soon he, too, shall not be thus cut down with mother and little Edith?"
60633CHAPTER V."WHAT WILL BE THEIR NEXT STEP?"
60633Can it be possible that he is going to get well after all?"
60633Did n''t he want to see me?
60633Do you see that light away to the south?"
60633How could I forget them so long?"
60633How do you feel now?"
60633I am so sorry; is n''t he with you?"
60633I wonder----"He held his breath a moment, and then only whisper--"I wonder if they have not already visited our home?"
60633If so, the question might well be asked what was meant by this extraordinary behaviour of the red men?
60633Oh, how can I be thankful enough?
60633Then he rode forward and asked--"Was Nick badly hurt?"
60633There''s no question that a big lot of''em was killed, and how was it to be helped?
60633Was it not more likely that he came to learn whether we needed protection?
60633What will Brinton think?"
60633Where are they?
60633Where then was the hope of eluding the hostiles, who were clinging so persistently to his track?
60633Where under heaven can the folk be?
60633Why did n''t he come with you?
60633Why did not Wolf Ear, when he saw he could not reach his pony in time, halt and bring his gun to bear on his fierce pursuer?
60633Why did they not conceal themselves until the fugitives rode directly into their arms?
60633With only a brief comment on what had been told him, he said, starting up--"But, Nick, of what have I been thinking?
60633Wolf Ear fixed his eyes upon the wondering Brinton, who, walking forward and stooping down, asked in a choking voice--"Is all this true, Wolf Ear?"
60633You had to abandon everything?"
60633You have heard of the battle at Wounded Knee Creek, I suppose?"
60633You understand what_ that_ means, of course?"
60633did he hurt you?"
60633she asked;"are you ill?"
60633the brother groaned,"is it too late to save her?"
60633what have I been doing?"
60633what is the meaning of that?"
60633what''s the matter, Jack?"
60633what''s up now?"
60633where are you?"
60633whispered the youth;"is n''t that smoke?"
5970''Have n''t you got any place you could go to?''
5970''Have you ever acted any?'' 5970 Ai n''t I dot no muvver?"
5970Ai n''t that a big house?
5970Ai n''t that the artis''stickin''out through her? 5970 Ai n''t there any Catholics?"
5970Ai n''t they tony? 5970 An''do you set up to jedge her?"
5970And she sent for me?
5970Are there any Presbyterians?
5970Are you Miss Viny?
5970But, Mrs. Wiggs, what must we do?
5970Come home without''em?
5970Could n''t we get the agency to take him back?
5970Did n''t I never had no muvver?
5970Did n''t you think she was a''awful haughty talker?
5970Did you think you was actin''fer the best?
5970Do I look so different?
5970Do n''t I? 5970 Do n''t they keep nothing in it but butter?"
5970Do n''t yer little brother want to git off?
5970Do n''t you see them hollyhawks an''snowballs an''laylacs? 5970 Do n''t you want to know about Tommy?"
5970Do n''t you want to wear my gloves awhile?
5970Do they set on the gold chairs?
5970Do you know what sort of a store they sell ducks at?
5970Do you love''em, too?
5970Do you s''pose Mary''s a- bringin''home a smallpox patient?
5970Do? 5970 Does he want to get married with her?"
5970Get there, dear? 5970 Have n''t you got any place you could go to?"
5970Have you ever acted any?
5970How comes it you ai n''t singin''?
5970How do you get it out, Miss Viny?
5970I''spect they have turkey every day, do n''t they, Asia?
5970If you please, sir, would you mind holding his feet while I loosen his hands?
5970If you''re ugly you never can get married with anybody, can you, Miss Bell?
5970Is that it?
5970Is we playin''hie- spy, Yuvey?
5970Is your sister a nigger named Jim Brown?
5970Kate, do n''t you know me?
5970Maw, what''s John Bagby a- handin''round in that little saucer?
5970Oh, what''ll I do?
5970Oh, where is that man? 5970 Pesterin''about somethin''?"
5970Please, ma''am,--she plunged into her subject at once,--"have any of your girls a dress for sale?
5970Please, sir, ca n''t I take Tommy, too? 5970 Somethin''that''s already did?"
5970These is geraniums, ai n''t they? 5970 They surely ai n''t meanin''me?"
5970Till you found me?
5970Tommy,she said, clutching his arm,"do n''t you want to go back?"
5970Was there blood on her head?
5970Well, I swan, Lovey Mary, where''d you come from?
5970Well, do you think you could take leadin''lady in the entertainment?
5970Well, what do you think I''d orter do''bout it?
5970What do you all think of havin''the picnic right here an''now?
5970What you lookin''so wilted about?
5970What''ll Miss Hazy say?
5970What''s the matter with Miss Viny? 5970 What''s the matter with you?"
5970What''s the matter with your hair, Lovey Mary? 5970 What''s the name of this street?"
5970What, Mrs. Wiggs? 5970 Where they make court- plaster at?"
5970Where?
5970Who did?
5970Who fer?
5970Who is that lady?
5970Who?
5970Whose little boy are you?
5970Why ca n''t you?
5970Why did n''t you put your mind on it, Miss Hazy?
5970Will I det on de rollin''honor?
5970Would n''t a kitten do jes as well?
5970You ai n''t going to let the train run over him, are you?
5970''How''d they git here?''
5970Ai n''t men deceivin''?
5970Ai n''t that the fire- engine?"
5970Ai n''t they made a mistake or somethin''?"
5970Ai n''t you proud you ai n''t got a harelip?
5970An''what was the sense in them big shiny buttons?"
5970And does it drag in the back when you walk?"
5970As she returned to her sweeping she sang joyfully, contentedly:"Can she sweep a kitchen floor, Billy boy, Billy boy?
5970As they shrank back into the shadow, Billy whispered to Lovey Mary:"Say, what was that you put''longside of him?"
5970Ca n''t I ever get nothing at all''cause I was n''t started out with nothing?"
5970Ca n''t you take me away?
5970Can she make a cheery- pie, Charming Billy?"
5970Can she sweep a kitchen floor, Charming Billy?"
5970Could n''t you tell she handles paints?
5970Could they have suspected anything?
5970Did you ever see anything to equal the way she takes on''bout that child?
5970Do n''t all the churches call in the''Piscopals an''the lilies on both them occasions?"
5970Do you love me?"
5970Do you s''pose he''s had a stroke?"
5970Do you suppose I''d''a''dared to judge Mr. Wiggs that away?
5970Have you got a dress you could give her?"
5970Have you got so much to brag on, that you kin go to pickin''him to pieces?
5970Have you room for him in your division?"
5970How did you know, dear?
5970I bet he''s a corker, ai n''t he, Lovey?
5970I wonder if she ever misses him?"
5970I wonder if she''s got well?
5970In a moment Chris was hanging half out of the window, demanding,"Where at?"
5970Is the dress short- sleeve?
5970Miss Hazy, what do you think he''ll think of yer figger?
5970Must I make you some tea?
5970Not waiting for an answer, she continued querulously:"Say, ca n''t you get me out of this hole someway?
5970Pinchin''an''cuttin''back the shoots makes it flower all the better; needs new soil every few years; now ai n''t that Methodist down to the ground?"
5970Reckon you could learn the part?
5970Redding?"
5970Robert Reddin''?''
5970She had on a sorter gray mournin'', did n''t she, Miss Hazy?"
5970She held his chubby face up to hers and said fervently:"Tommy, do you love me?"
5970That''s a mighty important question in churches, too, ai n''t it?
5970Tommy to go away with Kate?
5970Was Tommy to be taken from her?
5970What do you all want wif ducks?"
5970What do you think he done?"
5970What is it?"
5970What must I do?"
5970What''ll I do?
5970What''ll I do?"
5970What''s this?"
5970When he''d git bilin''mad, I''d say:''Now, Mr. Wiggs, why do n''t you go right out in the woodshed an''swear off that cuss?
5970When her nervousness grew unbearable she leaned forward and touched Mrs. Redding on the shoulder:"Will you please, ma''am, tell me when we get there?"
5970When she riz to go, she says, real kind fer such a stern- faced woman,''Do the childern seem well an''happy?''
5970Where are you and Tommy at?"
5970Where we goin''to git any to drink?
5970Who ever would''a''thought, when we aimed at the cemetery, that we''d land up at a first- class fire?"
5970Why do n''t you let him go barefoot on Sundays, too, an''take the time you been mendin''fer him to play with him?
5970Wiggs?"
5970Will you come, Mary?
5970With a good home, good clothes, and kind treatment, what else could a girl want?"
5970You an''the baby got losted?
5970You''re done tuckered out, ai n''t you?
5970[ Illustration:"''Have n''t you got any place you could go to?''"]
5970[ Illustration:"''Have you ever acted any?''
5970[ Illustration:"''Now the Lord meant you to be plain''"]"Well, did n''t he want me to have a mother and father?"
5970_"Miss Hazy._"DEAR MISS[ Mrs. Wiggs read from the large type- written sheet before her]: Why not study the planets and the heavens therein?
5970ai n''t he washed out?
5970burst forth Lovey Mary, indignantly,"or clothes, or money, or nothing?
5970cried Miss Bell, seizing the girl''s hand eagerly,"did you find her and take him to her?"
5970do n''t you see he is goin''to pray?"
5970do you hear me?"
5970is that my kid?"
5970what ever will I do?
5970you can get me away from this, ca n''t you?
43806And are we to be starved because we neither wear red coats nor are willing to march shoulder to shoulder with them?
43806And our own forces?
43806And shall you rejoice at finding yourself standing musket in hand before the foe?
43806And would you like to remember that we captured a lad who was once our friend, for others to hang in cold blood?
43806And you are eager to go into the combat?
43806And you have no hesitation about the matter, young Shelby?
43806And you swear faithfully to repeat every word of the message I give you, to each of those rebels who is in command of a dozen or more men?
43806And yours?
43806Are these your orders, or do you repeat some other''s words?
43806Are they soldiers or Tories?
43806Are we to be left behind?
43806Are you acquainted with all the rebel leaders hereabouts?
43806Are you countin''on killin''me?
43806Are you ready?
43806Are you young gentlemen setting out in search of the Tory?
43806Ay; but what does that prove? 43806 Ay; how else could it be when both sides are ready to fight?"
43806Beside the men who came out with you on the trail, how many are scouting around in this neighborhood?
43806But how may you get there? 43806 But surely you have some apartment which will answer our purpose?
43806But think you she has lost all hope? 43806 But what of Nathan and I?"
43806Can we believe what he says?
43806Did you have any further communication with her?
43806Did you have no assistance when you got out of the room which had been converted into a prison?
43806Do you count on making such a venture?
43806Do you intend to attack the Britishers, intrenched as they are on the mountain?
43806Do you know if he intends making a move soon?
43806Do you mean that he would dare to kill us?
43806Do you think it will be safe for us to leave him here with you?
43806Do you think we are to be bullied by such as you?
43806Does it appear to you as if we heard those sounds more clearly?
43806Ephraim escaped?
43806Happened?
43806Have the troops any other weapons than muskets?
43806Have you any further orders, sir?
43806Have you any idea that it might be possible to pull that down?
43806Have you any idea why the major chanced to take that place as an encampment?
43806Have you lost sight of him?
43806Have you seen Ephraim Sowers here?
43806Have you seen him since we halted?
43806How can we help you?
43806How could any spy have learned of their intended movements?
43806How dare you speak in that way when Major Ferguson is nearby to overhear the words?
43806How did you escape?
43806How far from here?
43806How is it you are here? 43806 How long has he been there?"
43806How many are the king''s soldiers, and how many Tories?
43806How many men has Major Ferguson?
43806How many men think you Major Ferguson can muster?
43806How may that be now that we have come to know him for what he is? 43806 How might that be?"
43806How much wrong would you have done had we not set upon you the night the force at Greene''s Spring were to be massacred?
43806I know it, and yet what may be done? 43806 If I mistake not, it is Ephraim Sowers, and what may he be doing here among the redcoats?"
43806Is Abbott here to say how the lad escaped?
43806Is it not possible for you to release us?
43806Is there to be a battle?
43806Is your mother thus despondent?
43806Now that we have got the sneak, what is to be done with him?
43806Of whom are they speaking?
43806Shall we accept the offer, Evan?
43806Shall we do it?
43806Suppose you let either Evan or I ride him? 43806 That does n''t explain how you escaped?"
43806That seems indeed true,Nathan replied,"and yet will Colonel William Campbell of Virginia remain idle?
43806The Britishers must have left the plantation, otherwise how could you be here?
43806The gentleman has considerable to say for himself, eh?
43806Then Mrs. Dillard_ did_ get here in time?
43806Then the boy is yet there?
43806Then we are the stronger?
43806Then who shall say that such mischief has been done?
43806Then why do you follow? 43806 To what end?"
43806Well, have you finished giving Major Ferguson all the information he desired?
43806Well, what does that prove?
43806What are you fellows doing over there by the window?
43806What could be done with him?
43806What has happened?
43806What have you done with the Tory?
43806What is it you want to know?
43806What mountain?
43806What shall I tell you?
43806What''s wrong in there?
43806When are we to start?
43806When we were again captured was it in your mind to treat us as friends?
43806Where are we to go, sir?
43806Where are your fathers?
43806Where are your forces encamped?
43806Where did the Tory go? 43806 Where is Evan McDowells?"
43806Who are you?
43806Who gave you to understand anything of the kind?
43806Who is it?
43806Who may say for how long he has acted the spy? 43806 Who shall say until it has been tried?"
43806Why did you not keep him with you?
43806Why do n''t you begin?
43806Why do n''t you fire on the chance of winging him? 43806 Why might we not escape?
43806Will you swear that she did not enter the room?
43806Will you swear that you sent no word to Colonel Clarke''s forces?
43806Would you carry away from their homes two boys upon whom a family is depending for food?
43806Would you make prisoners of us who are not soldiers?
43806Would you murder a fellow who never did you any harm?
43806Would you take me, who has never done you any wrong, to where I shall be killed?
43806Would you venture to lead him back?
43806You understand, also, that we are like to measure strength with them before many hours?
43806You will not delay?
43806Are you not the same who were taken prisoners this evening and confined in the Dillard house?"
43806Are you ready, Evan?"
43806But tell me what is the message which he charged you to deliver to all the rebels within fifty miles?"
43806Can it be possible he has escaped?"
43806Can the cellar be securely fastened?"
43806Dillard?"
43806Do you believe my uncle, Colonel Shelby, or Lieutenant- Colonel John Sevier, have laid down their arms?
43806Evan stepped back a pace in fear; but Nathan boldly held his ground as he asked bravely:"Think you, sir, that two lads like us may do the king harm?"
43806Has he also been made prisoner?"
43806He had no more than spoken before one of the officers came up and asked of those standing near by:"Who had charge of these lads?"
43806How long has it been that you of the Carolinas must search for food in the forests?"
43806How well would that plan work if we did our duty, and killed you here and now?
43806I suppose every man at the camp bears down heavily upon me?"
43806It was this officer who accosted the frightened lads, by asking in a loud voice which had in it much of menace:"What are you two doing here armed?
43806When did you fall into the hands of the enemy?"
43806Why not?
43806Will you admit that such horses as are owned by you may not cover that distance before a boy can do so on foot?
43806Would you avoid the encounter if it could be done honorably?"
20641And about yourself, Robah?
20641And now, about yourself; how on earth have you managed to get in?
20641And your father, is he well?
20641Are you going back with us, sahib?
20641Are you hit?
20641As a private, sahib?
20641But how did he cheat? 20641 But how was it that you were not recognized by the soldiers?"
20641But if you were to be killed, sahib, what then?
20641But some of our officers must have helped you, sahib?
20641Did the man get off, sahib?
20641Did your father give you any instructions, Lisle? 20641 Do you mean to say that you are not going to ride, Captain Bullen?"
20641Do you mean to say that you cooked with them, fought with them, and lived with them, as one of themselves?
20641Do you think so, Robah?
20641Do you think so, Robah?
20641Do you think that the troops will be marched away, sahib?
20641Do you think,the chief said to Lisle,"that you could hit that man who is directing them?"
20641Gentlemen, will you drink to the health of our new comrade, who has already shown that he is of the right sort, and of whom we may be proud?
20641Have the tribes been quiet since I went away?
20641Have you got a spare pair of shoes in your kit, Bullen?
20641Have you seen Houghton yet?
20641How do you like the prospect, Mutteh Ghar?
20641How far away is it that you left the man?
20641How has this all come about?
20641How many days will it take, chief?
20641How many were you attacked by?
20641How much more curry have we got, boy?
20641How old are you, Mr. Bullen? 20641 How old are you?
20641How was it that you did not interfere before?
20641How was it that you joined our little party?
20641I have not yet asked, Major, whether we are going up into the Tirah again, this spring?
20641I hope I am not in the way?
20641I suppose I could not go as a volunteer, colonel?
20641I suppose that stain wo n''t get off you, for some time?
20641I suppose you do n''t know yet whether you are coming back to us, Bullen?
20641I suppose you had some difficulty in speaking with the natives?
20641I suppose you have had hard times?
20641I suppose, sahib, we shall lose you at the end of the campaign?
20641Is Captain Bullen here?
20641Is he badly hurt''?
20641Is he conscious?
20641Is it you or your ghost, Bullen?
20641Is the general engaged?
20641Is there anything you would wish me to do, sir? 20641 It is all very well to talk about a charge; but how are you going to charge through the bush, where every step has to be cut?
20641It was a grand fight, Major,the colonel said;"but you were at Maiwand also, were you not?"
20641Must I go, Colonel?
20641Must you leave me, father?
20641No? 20641 No?
20641Now, can you think of anything else that would be useful? 20641 Now, just look at me; do I look like an officer and a gentleman?
20641Oh, you have come to the nursery, have you? 20641 Shall I go and fetch the risaldar here, sahib?"
20641These poor fellows look as if they wanted a rest more than we do, do n''t they?
20641They are not very strong, are they, father?
20641Well, Bullen, how does this campaign compare with that in the Tirah?
20641Well, Hallett, how do you feel?
20641Well, how did you like the march?
20641Well, that is fun, is it not, Captain Bullen?
20641Well, what is up, Bullen?
20641Well, who are you, and how in the world is it that you are a private in the Pioneers?
20641What alternative can there be?
20641What are you going to do now?
20641What did you manage to get?
20641What do you mean to get?
20641What do you want with us?
20641What has happened?
20641What have you got, boy?
20641What have you to say, Captain Sanders?
20641What is all this about?
20641What is it, Gordon?
20641What is to be done now?
20641What is your name?
20641What put the idea into your head?
20641What was he saying to you?
20641When will that be, Lisle?
20641Where is Pertab wounded, sahib?
20641Who on earth are you?
20641Why did you not return at once, when the chief who captured you said that you were his guest? 20641 Why did you not tell me about it, Bullen?
20641Why do n''t you get up when you are a winner?
20641Why do they call you sahib?
20641Why do you call me Bullen Sahib, Pertusal?
20641Why should they build a better house there than at the other stations?
20641Why, how did you learn Punjabi?
20641Would you be disposed to take me with you?
20641You are sure,Robah said,"that you understand the proper folding of your turban?"
20641You did?
20641You have got everything, sergeant?
20641You have not seen the last gazette, I suppose?
20641You have, of course, not settled anything about the date, Hallett?
20641You like shooting, Captain Bullen?
20641You mean to say that, by watching the dealer''s eye, Captain Sanders leaves one pound or five on his card?
20641You talk the Pathan language with facility?
20641You went as a soldier?
20641A nice example to set to your Hausas, is n''t it?"
20641An hour passed silently, and then Lisle asked:"How are you feeling, now?"
20641And he was your father?"
20641And now, how are you?"
20641And so you are an officer in his regiment?"
20641And what are you going to do now?"
20641Are you a good shot?"
20641Besides, how could the son of our dear captain go as a private?"
20641Bullen?"
20641Bullen?"
20641But have you enough to carry you on till you hear from your agent?"
20641Do n''t you see that I know all about it, and that it is ridiculous for you to pretend to misunderstand me?"
20641Do you guarantee our safety, if we return with you to your fort?"
20641Do you see those two there close together, about forty yards away?
20641Have you also observed the act of cheating of which he accuses Captain Sanders?"
20641He opened the door, and said:"Colonel Houghton, will you step in here, for a moment?"
20641He was startled when the man behind him said:"Hillo, young fellow, who on earth are you?
20641Holmes?"
20641How about your luggage?"
20641How came you to be such a good shot?"
20641How do you think that I had better go?"
20641How do you wish the uniform of your supposed cousin to be sent to you?"
20641How long have you left it?"
20641How long is it since you joined the regiment?"
20641I dare say you know that you succeeded to your company, just six months ago?"
20641I hope you have made up your mind to go through scarlet fever, or measles, Hallett?"
20641I suppose it was done so that you might fill the place of your cousin?"
20641I suppose the men who accompanied you are still here?"
20641If this is the case, here, what must it be in the forest and swamps behind?"
20641Is it painful?"
20641Of course, you have your blanket with you?"
20641Retrace our steps, or push on and chance it?"
20641Sahib, if only our food were so condensed that we could carry a supply for twelve days about us, what would we not be able to do?
20641Scouting half a mile ahead of them, on your own account?"
20641The question arose, how were the stakes to be tied together?
20641Tritton exclaimed,"how could he possibly have lost so much as that?
20641Was there not some fair young Afridi, who held you in her chains?"
20641We can understand that you have been held as a hostage, but how is it that you are here?
20641What have been your losses?"
20641What is he thinking of doing?"
20641What is the life of a soldier to that of an officer?"
20641What is the use of living, if you are to have no satisfaction out of life?"
20641What on earth are we to do now?
20641What were you doing?
20641Whatever have you been doing now?"
20641When he came within a hundred yards he halted, and shouted:"Are you ready to pay the tribute fixed upon?"
20641When will you march, sahib?"
20641Which officer do you think I had better speak to?"
20641Why not strive for the position of a field marshal, who has the possibility of becoming commander in chief?
20641Why should a hundred horsemen engage in hunting the poor brute down?
20641Will you tell me what you saw?"
20641Would you rather be on staff duty, or rejoin your regiment?"
20641You did not speak to him in English, I hope, Villiers?"
20641You do n''t carry a charm about with you, do you?"
20641You do n''t suppose that married men can keep matters like this from their wives?
20641You see that tree up there?
20641You were also, I believe, in two or three dashing affairs before Maiwand?"
20641You wish to see fighting, do you not?"
20641he said, in surprise;"and why did you not speak to me in it, before?
20641the officer said to Lisle,"do you think you can pick off that fellow in the white burnoose?
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?"
55779An Englishman?
55779And I suppose that you know something of trade?
55779And how about Burnes?
55779And now you come hither as a spy?
55779And now, chief, what do you propose to do with me?
55779And so it is you, chief, to whom I owe my life?
55779And what do people say about the Russians? 55779 And would you thus burden yourself with a stranger?"
55779Are they madmen, who think they can tear down the walls of Ghuznee with their finger- nails?
55779Are you awake?
55779Are you going anywhere, master?
55779Are you ready to undertake a hazardous mission?
55779But does your chief guarantee that we shall go unmolested down to Dadur?
55779But how,he said doubtfully,"can your country, which is, as I hear, very far distant, exercise any influence with the Shah?
55779But what is our army doing?
55779But who are you, then, who have travelled so far, and how is it that having learned so many languages you are now here as a peasant?
55779But why should England have interfered? 55779 Can you find your way across the mountains in the dark?
55779Do you know the name of this chief?
55779Do you know where they have brought us?
55779Do you not see that we are friends?
55779Do you not think that Kamran will be able at any important moment to come forward and show himself among the defenders of the breach? 55779 Do you think that Akbar was a sharer in this treacherous attack?"
55779Does Saleh Mahomed sleep there?
55779Does not the Koran bid us succour the afflicted?
55779Had you hard fighting to get here?
55779Have you anything to report, Suleiman?
55779Have you news for us?
55779Have you thought of any way of escape?
55779How can he be there, in the midst of the enemy, unless indeed he is a prisoner?
55779How could this have happened, Azim? 55779 How do they intend to take Ghuznee?
55779How long is the pass, master?
55779How much would be charged?
55779How on earth did you manage it?
55779How quickly have you come from Cabul? 55779 How was it that you did not turn back when you found that your army was retiring without having captured Herat?"
55779I hear that one of your men is ill, can anything be done for him? 55779 I suppose it would be of no use taking torches?"
55779In the first place,the general said,"what is the state of the Bolan?"
55779Is it true that the kafirs are bringing no big guns with them?
55779It means, then,he said,"that if I do not leave Herat there will be war?"
55779May I ask what dress it will be proper for me to wear?
55779Shall I get the woman''s dress?
55779Shall you be sending a message to the minister?
55779So you are back, Suffyd?
55779Then why do you not do it? 55779 Then why should you go, master?"
55779Then you do n''t think things are going on well?
55779Then, if we are attacked we must be taken prisoners?
55779There were no troops there, then?
55779They tell me,the governor said,"that you can speak our tongue?"
55779Well, how much would you charge?
55779Well, lad, have you thought of any plan yet?
55779Well, lad?
55779Well, what would you have? 55779 Were you in the Persian camp?"
55779What are we to take, master? 55779 What are you doing, fools?"
55779What are you smiling at, Campbell?
55779What are you thinking of doing?
55779What can it mean? 55779 What do you think has happened?"
55779What do you want?
55779What does it matter,he said,"whether the soldiers take things or not?
55779What has happened?
55779What is it that you have come to ask of me? 55779 What is it that you want with me?"
55779What is its nature?
55779What is to be done next?
55779What on earth does this mean?
55779What should I do with money without employment?
55779What should we say,he burst out,"if the families of Dost Mahomed and Akbar himself were to be sold by your people as slaves to some barbarous race?
55779What words should I say, my lord? 55779 What would you here, stranger?"
55779When do you expect that a relief column will arrive from Peshawur?
55779When you have been in the city, Azim, have you ever seen our friend Sadut?
55779Where are you wounded?
55779Where could we put him in prison?
55779Where did you learn it?
55779Where did you say you came from?
55779Where in the world did you get these wedges?
55779Which, think you, would be best-- to travel straight for Cabul when you hear that the British have arrived there, or to wait here? 55779 Who are you?"
55779Who can withstand your people when they are fighting among your own hills? 55779 Why are we brought here?
55779Why come you here, Persian?
55779Why trouble to bring him as a prisoner?
55779Will you tell Izaac effendi that I desire greatly to speak to him?
55779Yes, what your minister says is true; but will he do this at once?
55779You are Mr. Campbell, the young gentleman of whom our vice- consul at Tabriz writes to me?
55779You are aware of its contents?
55779You have come hither for purposes of trade? 55779 You have my disguise ready and your own, Azim?"
55779You journeyed here comfortably, I hope?
55779You speak Persian, your excellency?
55779''Do you think that because our chief is a traitor we are traitors too?''"
55779Angus said,"and why have we been carried off?"
55779Angus uttered an exclamation of disgust, and Azim struck another blow at his plan by saying,"How would you get the horses out, master?
55779Are there any of your tribe who would act as a guide for us?
55779Are you alone going to fail?"
55779Are you going to return to the embassy or remain here?"
55779Are you uninjured?"
55779As for to- morrow, who can say?"
55779As soon as they had cleared the snow and opened the felt out a little, Sadut called--"Are you awake, Hassan?"
55779Besides, how could they have told that a Momund chief had been here with Dost Mahomed when he passed through?"
55779But how did you learn that I was going to try to make my way down to Jellalabad?
55779But how should we get the camel?"
55779But should I see him have you any message for him?
55779But why do you stand so far away?"
55779But why should they have taken this trouble?
55779CHAPTER XIX THE BRITISH CAPTIVES"Why are you going as a Cashmerian?"
55779Campbell?"
55779Can you tell me how it was that my wife, Lady Macnaghten, and the other ladies, escaped uninjured?
55779Can you tell me where I can procure a lodging?"
55779Did you suffer from want of water?"
55779Do you know any other language at all?"
55779Do you think that you can do it without his hearing you?
55779From what city do you come?"
55779Has the chief returned?"
55779Have you European clothes with you?"
55779Have you a good commander?"
55779Have you cooked some of the flour?"
55779Have you ever been through by night before?"
55779Have you, chief, taken part in this terrible business?"
55779How comes it that you have entered this lonely gorge with your pack- horses and your goods?"
55779How did men say it was that they failed to capture Herat, which is but a weak town?"
55779How have you got through?"
55779How is that?"
55779How long are you going to stay here?"
55779How long would it take us?"
55779How many years has your excellency?"
55779How much would you be willing to pay?"
55779How old are you now?"
55779I suppose Mohun Lal really did give you the assurance about the ransom?"
55779I suppose that he will be armed?"
55779I suppose you have come to see how we are getting on?"
55779I suppose you speak Persian well?"
55779I suppose you will start at once?"
55779If someone did not come in an hour, why should he come in a week or a month?"
55779Is it you who has thus made us prisoners?"
55779Is that your man over there with the two horses?
55779Now that you have told us about yourself, please give us any details you can of what you saw of the fighting?"
55779Now, I suppose you want something to eat?
55779Now, about forage?"
55779Presently he said:"But we have no pen and ink to write this order?"
55779Shall I desert my friends when they most need comfort and aid?
55779Shall I mention your name to him?"
55779Should I speak to him if I do so?"
55779Surely you could not send an army all that distance?"
55779The officers were silent for a minute, and then Pottinger said:"What do you think, Brigadier?
55779The question is, do you feel strong enough to travel through the mountains?
55779Then you saw nothing of it?"
55779There would be no harm in that, would there?"
55779Think you that Saleh would let me traffic with them?"
55779Was there any news when you left there?"
55779We know about it as far as the edge of Beloochee Desert; what is it beyond that?
55779Were they very strong?
55779What are your instructions?
55779What disguise could he adopt, and how could he evade the vigilance of those who were watching him?
55779What do you think of the state of affairs?
55779What guarantee does Mohun Lal offer that these terms shall be fulfilled?"
55779What harm have we done?"
55779What is my friendship worth if I should, now in your hour of need, turn my back upon you?
55779What motive, chief, could I have in deceiving you?"
55779What on earth can Macnaghten and Elphinstone be doing?"
55779What would happen if the British again settled down at Cabul?
55779When do we start?"
55779When will you start?"
55779Where are you dwelling now?"
55779Where are you thinking of cashing this?"
55779Which road will he go by?"
55779Who do you think it is?"
55779Why leave the animals?"
55779Why not kill him?
55779Why should a man throw away his life?
55779Why should he not have bought a larger store of Indian goods to exchange with the Turkomans?
55779Why should they leave us our swords and provide a good meal for us if they intended to murder us afterwards?"
55779Will they fly over the walls or burrow through the rock?"
55779Will you undertake that mission?
55779Would you be ready to start on Thursday?"
55779Would you wish me to return as soon as I have delivered your message?"
55779You have a horse, of course, and a servant, I suppose?"
55779You know Syud Moorteza?"
55779Your father had correspondents also in Bombay, had he not?"
55779and why should they have prepared this place beforehand for our reception?
55779he said,"and what message can one like you bear to me?"
55779he said;"and how come you to speak our language?"
55779if so, how was it that the Shah was friendly with them?
55779were they infidels?
55779were they really in alliance with Persia?
19714''Is it not, Thirza?'' 19714 ''Well, what do you want me to do for the lad?''
19714''You say that he speaks both French and German well? 19714 A Scotchman, I suppose?"
19714And are they extensive?
19714And how about yourself? 19714 And may I ask how the count is going on, sir?"
19714And the French are gone, bag and baggage?
19714And the place?
19714And what think you of this matter, lad?
19714Are the horses at the door?
19714Are they here, then, count?
19714Are you Lieutenant Drummond, sir?
19714Are you all right?
19714Are you hurt, sir?
19714Are you joking, Ronsfeldt?
19714Are you sure that he is not dead, sir?
19714Are your horses still alive?
19714At what time will you start?
19714But I am not to lose your services, I hope?
19714But the king is a Protestant, is he not, sir?
19714But what grievance has France against the king?
19714But what is it all about, Drummond? 19714 But who had you with you to help you?"
19714By the way, are you not the officer who cut his way through the squadron of our regiment, and went on and joined your cavalry, who at once fell back? 19714 By the way, how did you come here?"
19714Can anyone tell me where I can find the king?
19714Can you give us the particulars?
19714Can you swim?
19714Could I, mother?
19714Did Ferdinand send you back, or did you ask to come?
19714Do we block the only line of retreat, sir?
19714Do you hear from her often?
19714Do you know what is going on to the right, sir?
19714Do you know where we are bound for?
19714Do you mean to kill him?
19714Do you mean to say, Mr. Drummond, that with your own hand you slew the whole of the six villains?
19714Do you mean, count,Fergus exclaimed eagerly,"that Thirza could go with me?
19714Do you not think of settling here?
19714Do you suppose that I am the emperor, in disguise?
19714Do you think, then,Stauffen said,"that there is any chance of our making our escape?"
19714Do you want a surgeon to see you?
19714Dragged hither, count?
19714From what you said in your letter to my mother, sir, you think it likely that we shall see service, before long?
19714Has he completely recovered?
19714Has the count opened his eyes yet?
19714Have there been any exchanges of prisoners, of late?
19714Have you any spirits?
19714Have you been a prisoner before?
19714Have you passed muster?
19714How can you say so, father?
19714How did they get the news of our coming?
19714How do you manage coming back?
19714How do you mean, count?
19714How far are we from Erfurt, now?
19714How have things gone, major?
19714How is your master, Karl?
19714How long do you think that we shall take?
19714How long have you been on the road?
19714How long have you been out here?
19714How long shall I be before I am fit for duty again?
19714How long will that be, Lindsay?
19714I hope the horse came back safely, Lindsay?
19714I should like nothing so much, count; but might I not get you into trouble, if it were known that you had one of the king''s officers at your house?
19714I suppose you have not dined yet, Karl?
19714I suppose you would not have recognized me?
19714In what way, Karl?
19714Is Mr. Drummond up?
19714Is that the headquarters of the French general?
19714Is the marshal in his room?
19714Is the way we came this morning the shortest?
19714Is there anything we can do, father?
19714Is there much duelling here?
19714Is there no news of Ziethen?
19714Is there nothing that we can do for you? 19714 Is there still room left for me, do you think?"
19714Karl, are you there?
19714May I ask if, by the last news, Marshal Daun is still near Hochkirch?
19714May I ask what is the news, sir?
19714Now, commanding officer, what is to be our next tale?
19714Now, sir, is there anything that I can do for you?
19714Now, that has not been so dreadful, has it?
19714Now, which of you is the captain?
19714Now,Fergus went on,"what is the lowest price that one of you will take me and my horse down to Dresden for?
19714Oh, sir,she said,"is it possible that you, who look so young, can be the one who came to our assistance, and killed those six evil men?
19714Six months or six years; who can tell?
19714That all seems possible enough, Drummond,Captain Ritzer said;"but what about our uniforms?"
19714The only question is, when is the first visit to take place? 19714 Then shall we say five o''clock?"
19714Then you have not the most remote idea where you will find your servant and horse?
19714Then you never thought of such a thing?
19714There is nothing I can do for you?
19714To that I must reply,Fergus said with a smile,"''How long are you thinking of stopping here?''
19714Tomorrow?
19714Was anyone else hurt?
19714Was it really you who saved us, the other night?
19714Well, Captain Drummond, so you have been playing the spy for us?
19714Were these the only two men in the house?
19714What about?
19714What am I to do, your honour?
19714What are you waiting here for?
19714What disguise do you, yourself, fancy?
19714What do you mean?
19714What do you say, Thirza?
19714What do you say, Thirza?
19714What force is there opposed to us?
19714What happened when you came in?
19714What has become of Karl? 19714 What is it, Major Drummond?"
19714What is its work, principally?
19714What is the gentleman''s name?
19714What is there for me to do, count, outside the army? 19714 What is your business, sir?"
19714What is your name, sir?
19714What next, I wonder?
19714What o''clock is it?
19714What, have you got another step, Drummond?
19714Whence do you bring it?
19714Where am I hit?
19714Where are their rooms?
19714Where can I get help from?
19714Where have you been, Karl?
19714Where is the colonel?
19714Where is your messenger, Keith?
19714Where is your new aide- de- camp, marshal?
19714Which way did you travel?
19714Which way is it, Major Drummond? 19714 Who is its commander?"
19714Who is the young fellow, do you know him?
19714Who is there? 19714 Who is we, Karl?"
19714Why do you not bring it here?
19714Why do you not salute, sir?
19714Why so?
19714Why, Fergus,he exclaimed,"have you been robbing the King of Poland''s stables?
19714Why, I thought you lodged in the palace?
19714Why, how was that, Karl?
19714Will he live, sir?
19714Will one of you ask the count to see me? 19714 Will the scars on your face always show as they do now?"
19714Will they never stop?
19714Will you come in, sir?
19714Will you go this afternoon?
19714Will you have the uniform complete, with belts, helmet, and all equipments?
19714Would it not be possible, captain,Fergus asked,"to hire a boat?"
19714You are not really in earnest, Drummond,Stauffen said,"in what you say about escaping?"
19714You are the bearer of a letter to me, sir?
19714You are with Stauffen and Ritzer, are you not, major?
19714You brought your horse safe out of the battle, I hope?
19714You did not see the countess, I suppose, Karl?
19714You do n''t think there is any chance of escape, surely, major?
19714You have Major Drummond in with you, have you not?
19714You saw the fellows, then? 19714 You were in no danger, yourself?"
19714You were not present, yourself?
19714Your master is not killed?
19714After that, who knows?"
19714And what was the next occasion?"
19714And where did you get your last step?"
19714As Karl was helping Fergus into his uniform, he asked:"How long were you in coming here, count?"
19714At any rate, if we do n''t mean to fight, what are we here for?"
19714But how is he disfigured?"
19714But tell us first, how were you captured?"
19714Can I speak to you for a moment?"
19714Can you tell us how matters have gone, up there?"
19714Could you come at that hour?"
19714Did he get safely back?"
19714Did you learn anything more than what Marshal Keith has told me?"
19714Do you see any difference between them?"
19714Does my officer wish to take a full- dress suit with him?"
19714Fergus exclaimed,"where do you spring from-- when did you arrive?"
19714Fergus exclaimed,"where do you spring from-- when did you arrive?"]
19714Fergus went up to him and said:"Can you tell me, sir, if Marshal Keith is among the killed?
19714Had they left before you got there?
19714Had you formed any plans as to what you would have done, had you found him absent?"
19714Have you any news?"
19714Have you heard the last news?"
19714Have you not heard the news?
19714How do you feel now, sir?"
19714How do you get on with them?"
19714How goes the battle?"
19714How have you learnt it?"
19714How much land goes with it?"
19714How was it that they suffered you to escape with your life?
19714How was it that you heard of the attack?"
19714I myself have risen too; but what does it bring?
19714I suppose you know nothing of this beastly language?"
19714I wonder whether the rooms above and below this are tenanted?"
19714Is he alone?"
19714Lieutenant Lindsay, who was on duty, came forward, looked at him doubtfully for a moment, and then shouted joyfully:"Why, Drummond, is it you?
19714Now, have you spare clothes on board?"
19714Now, shall I go first, or will one of you?"
19714One may be cold and wet and hungry, but who cares?
19714Or an out- of- the- way thing that I should gladly give her to you?"
19714Sackville looked at him as he shouted in English, with astonishment and rage:"And who the devil are you?"
19714Shall I go over and inquire what is going on?"
19714The question is, what is to be done with them?
19714The servant went in, a moment later held the door open, and said:"Will you enter, sir?"
19714There is still a spare room on your corridor, is there not?
19714We have not ill treated you in any way, have we?"
19714Well, which shall it be-- infantry or cavalry?''
19714What do you value them at?"
19714What is it?"
19714What must you have thought of me?"
19714What relation was he to you?"
19714What strength were they?"
19714When do you think of starting for Scotland?"
19714Which way do you intend to cross the passes into Saxony?"
19714Who could possibly have believed that a young fellow, not yet twenty, I should say, could have so distinguished himself?
19714Who is he related to?"
19714Why should you not do the same?"
19714Will you let us have a share of the fire?"
19714Will you tell me how it happened?"
19714Would it be such an out- of- the- way thing for you to come to me, and ask her hand?
19714Would you object to each side being accompanied by a second friend?
19714You are well enough to walk to the hotel?"
19714You come from Vienna?"
19714You have no more kinsmen coming at present, Keith?''
19714Your majesty has nothing more to say to him?"
19714he exclaimed,"where do you spring from-- how did you know that I was here-- when did you arrive?"
41784All you folks got into the cavern, down among the rocks over there, thinkin''you was safe, did n''t you?
41784Am you abdressing your remarks to me or to de ladies?
41784And go prowling outside among the Indians and Tories?
41784And how did you manage it?
41784And what was it that_ you_ saw, Habakkuk?
41784And what''s to hinder them keeping us here for a week?
41784And why not?
41784Are you badly hurt?
41784Are you sure of that?
41784But do n''t you have to look over the line of protection, so as to keep good watch?
41784But how did you become separated?
41784But is it necessary for you to stay out there, and draw their fire to keep them away from us?
41784But suppose he_ does_, what then?
41784But that shot-- who fired it?
41784But we haven''t-- so what''s the use of talking of an impossibility?
41784But what are_ you_ going to do, Gravity?
41784But what will become of your father and Gravity?
41784But where can we go, Gravity? 41784 But where is your courage, child?"
41784But who was he?
41784But, Richard,ventured Aunt Peggy, coming close to the elbow of her brother- in- law,"what are_ you_ going to do?"
41784But, aunt, what shall we do? 41784 But, father,"she added,"what can he do, with his arms bound?"
41784But, leftenant, such a pledge ai n''t binding on one, is it?
41784Ca n''t they climb up in the rear of them, so as to avoid showing themselves to us?
41784Can any of you gentlemen tell me whether this is Wilkesbarre or Stroudsburg?
41784Can it be that they really know nothing of our flight?
41784Can you save us?
41784Can you tell me where they are?
41784Dat may all be, but s''pose dey should take a notion to fling their tomahawks into de shadder, what will become ob_ dis_ person?
41784Dat''s all right-- I was jes''joking wid you-- but, if you hain''t any''bjection, Massa Golcher, I''d like to know what yer gwine to do wid me? 41784 Did he?
41784Did lie fire either of those shots that brought down a couple of our men?
41784Did n''t you see any more?
41784Did you recognize him?
41784Do n''t you see the Senecas are starting off to hunt him up?
41784Do you expect me to believe that?
41784Do you feel skeart?
41784Do you know anything about Fred Godfrey?
41784Do you know whether he is alive or-- or-- dead?
41784Do you know whether he speaks the truth or not?
41784Do you know who shot that Indian?
41784Do you know,suddenly asked Golcher turning on the negro,"that we''re going to have every one of that party afore daylight?"
41784Do you suppose I was such a fool as to allow Habakkuk McEwen, one of my best friends, to bring me back a prisoner to you? 41784 Does it lead through the''Shades of Death?''"
41784Explain what you mean?
41784Gimp seen two Injins, did n''t he?
41784Go on a scout? 41784 Gravity,"said Eva, when they had gone but a short distance,"I thought you were lame a while ago?"
41784Ha, ha, ha,she added,"you''re another Yankee, ai n''t you?"
41784Habakkuk,said Fred Godfrey, in a low voice,"what did you mean by telling that wretch such a story?"
41784Halloa; are you white?
41784Have you just arrived, Habakkuk?
41784Hope for him? 41784 How are you going to do it?"
41784How can it be worse than a strain?
41784How comes it you''re in this scrape?
41784How did you hurt it?
41784How do you know that he has done so?
41784How do you know that?
41784How do you make that out?
41784How far off are they?
41784How many times have I told you not to interrupt me when I am talking? 41784 How shall I got away widout being seed?"
41784How was it you managed to get down here?
41784How will we know which is to fire?
41784How?
41784How?
41784I do n''t see why they ca n''t do it,added the New Englander;"and then what would we do for water?"
41784I do n''t see why we wo n''t, for what will they want better than darkness to help them over?
41784I have n''t told you I would n''t take care of you, have I?
41784I say, Jake, ai n''t you going to unfasten these twists of wood that are cutting my arms almost in two? 41784 I say,"remarked the African, as though a new idea had flashed upon him,"why do n''t the warmints wait till it is dark before dey take a pop at us?"
41784I think there is an old trail leading through the mountains and wilderness to Stroudsburg, ai n''t there, Gimp?
41784I was going to say-- What do you mean, Gravity?
41784If papa comes across the river,said Eva, who threatened to yield again;"wo n''t he cross higher up?"
41784If we could do Richard any good,added Aunt Peggy, more thoughtfully,"we ought to wait here; but can we?"
41784If you think so much of me, then, wo n''t you take some risk for my sake, as well as that of the others?
41784In what way?
41784Is it securely fastened above?
41784Is the danger imminent?
41784Is this the end of the path?
41784It is an Injin,called out Aunt Peggy;"why do n''t you shoot him, Richard, before he kills us all?"
41784It was a daring act, indeed, but what is to be the issue?
41784It''ll take us two or free days to reach Stroudsburg, no matter how fast we trabbel, and whar''s we gwine to got de prowisions on de road?
41784It''s all right now, then, ai n''t it-- that is, with me?
41784It''s no use, Miss Maggie,was the despairing reply;"we may as well give up; do n''t you see we''re cotched?
41784May I go with''em?
41784No one is safer than I; do you see?
41784No, I did n''t know it; did you?
41784Of course I do; do n''t you see what danger we are in? 41784 Of course; where am dey?"
41784Oh, Jake, have you seen anything of father?
41784See here,said Habakkuk, with a flirt of his head and a confidential air,"ai n''t you going to cut them things that are tied about my arms?"
41784Shet up?
41784So you intend to burn me to death, Jacob, do you?
41784Suppose he does get there?
41784Surrender, eh? 41784 That Injin actually tried to kiss me-- didn''t you see him?"
41784That is n''t what I mean: do you know where he is?
41784That''s the idea, is it? 41784 Then you will help our friends out of their trouble?"
41784Wal, what ob it?
41784Was he-- was he-- Oh, Jake, tell me?--was he_ hurt_?
41784Was it a wise proceeding?
41784Was it not aimed at you?
41784Well, Maggie, what is it?
41784Well? 41784 What are you axin''him dat for?"
41784What can I do for you, dear Maggie?
41784What did I tell you?
41784What did you want to be took for an Injin for?
41784What do you mean, aunty?
41784What do you refer to?
41784What does_ what_ mean?
41784What else can we do?
41784What has caused you to take such a sudden start?
41784What in the name of the seven wonders was this change made for?
41784What is it?
41784What is there to scare us?
41784What made you paint yourself up in this fashion?
41784What makes you lame?
41784What the mischief have you done with my gun?
41784What will that be?
41784What''ll we do that for?
41784What''s that for?
41784What''s that?
41784What''s the matter, Gravity?
41784What''s the sense of my fooling longer?
41784Where did you come from?
41784Where do you go?
41784Where was you during the battle this afternoon?
41784Where would I see him?
41784Where''s father?
41784Where''s papa and Gravity?
41784Where''s that son of yours?
41784Where?
41784Why ai n''t you with your folks?
41784Why did dat Injin turn back summersets, and whoop it up in dat style, when your gun flashed in de pan?
41784Why did n''t some of them Senecas pull her off? 41784 Why did n''t you gnaw''em off?"
41784Why did n''t you yell for me as soon as you found out he had gone?
41784Why did you do that?
41784Why did you not come down the regular path?
41784Why do n''t you shoot?
41784Why do you talk to me thus?
41784Why is Jake Golcher watching the folks so closely? 41784 Why should they stop here,"thought he,"when they have every reason to think I am threshing through the wood and getting farther away each minute?"
41784Why, Habakkuk,said Godfrey in return;"why, are you in such a hurry that you ca n''t stop?"
41784Wo n''t they take that view any way?
41784Would n''t I have more chance to do hot work?
41784Yes,added Maggie,"if we all place ourselves beyond reach, why should not_ you_ do the same?"
41784Yes,said the elder sister;"did n''t you notice a strange noise after Fred and father got up?"
41784Yes-- yes-- yes, I-- w- w- wi- ll; what do you want?
41784Yes--"What''s de use ob lyin''so shamefully as dat?
41784You Yankee officer?
41784You heard what he said, did n''t you?
41784You talk like a fool-- what do you mean by bustin''a leg?
41784You think so, eh? 41784 You took me for an Injin, did you?
41784You would like to know, eh? 41784 You''ll teach me manners, will you?
41784_ All_ the captains were killed,was the truthful declaration of the queen,"and more of you Yankees shall be killed; do you see these here?"
41784All at once I seed two Injuns stealing along--""Did they see you?"
41784Am yer gwine ter take me up in York State and put me to work on a farm?"
41784And after I''m disposed of, what then?
41784At that instant the stranger dropped with a light bound, and, looking around in the gloom, asked:"Are you all here?"
41784At this moment Dick Durkee called out:"Lieutenant, shall we fire?
41784Brainerd?"
41784Brainerd?"
41784But, after all, would it have been anything more than anticipating by a few hours their certain fate?
41784By and by he exhausted himself, and then paused in front of Habakkuk McEwen and demanded:"Why did n''t you stop him when you seen him running away?"
41784CHAPTER V."Do you want me to befriend you?"
41784Catching her arm, he said:"Do n''t be so fast; where will you go, if you do n''t go with me?"
41784Could they forget that within a stone''s throw their friends were in peril, and unless soon rescued would be beyond all help?
41784Do n''t you know what''s good manners?"
41784Do you hear?"
41784Do you understand?"
41784Gravity, how far off is that place in the rocks we''re hunting for?"
41784He was the first to recover his speech, and, with an expletive, he demanded:"Where did_ you_ come from?"
41784Hurry up, Gravity; use that pole in the right direction, Maggie; cheer up, Eva, and how are you, Aunt Peggy?"
41784I promised father to try to get away, but how can we do so?"
41784I''d be sure to fall over the rocks and break my leg, and then how would you feel?"
41784I''ll wait and see; but wo n''t I level things up with that''ere Fred Godfrey?
41784If a man could walk from the cavern in that fashion, why might not the entire party, one after the other, file out in the same manner?
41784If you had treated me right a while ago it would have been well--""Oh, Jake, how can you?"
41784Is there some mischief afloat?"
41784Is this she who coolly raised her rifle and fired at those who were seeking her life?"
41784It would not be dark for three hours, and who could tell what might take place in that brief period?
41784Now he is out there somewhere in the woods, where it is as dark as Egypt, and do you suppose he is the fool to allow them to take him again?
41784Now, I s''pose you''d like to have your father and the rest of them folks let go?"
41784That is, what is to be done with my friends there?"
41784Walking toward him, she clasped her hands, and with an emotion that was certainly genuine, she said:"Oh, Mr. Golcher, wo n''t you help us?"
41784Was he seeking father''s life?
41784What do you mean by that?"
41784What more trying situation could there be?
41784What''s that?"
41784When the latter had told his story, Maggie asked:"Papa, where can Fred be?"
41784Where did you come from, and why are you got up in that flowery style?"
41784Who was the right person to do it?
41784Would there be any more heroism in doing so than had been displayed before by thousands of her sex?
41784You ai n''t skeered, be you, lieutenant?"
41784exclaimed Maggie, with a glowing countenance;"well?"
41784exclaimed the astounded Gimp,"what does_ dat_ mean?"
41784exclaimed the terrified McEwen, as he began swinging back and forth, head downward, like a huge pendulum;"wo n''t somebody set me right side up?"
41784gasped Aunt Peggy, too much horrified to speak above a whisper:"ai n''t you ashamed of yourself?"
41784he asked, reproachfully;"is this the girl who stood up in the flat- boat and used the pole when the bullets were flying about her?
41784interrupted the Tory, angrily;"why do you get over that stuff to me?
41784it''s all up!_""What do you mean?"
41784wailed Maggie,"what became of him?"
41784well?"
41784what''s that?
61767''Have you fellows got so that you can listen to a white man at last?'' 61767 All ready with that gun down there?"
61767All ready with that gun?
61767All ready with that other gun? 61767 An apple?"
61767And are you going to do it?
61767And he gave it to you to save your life?
61767And you are going outside to shoot them, and the Sioux all around you?
61767Anybody killed?
61767Are there any persons here asleep?
61767Are they coming now behind you?
61767Are you all ready to start now?
61767Are you aware that the Sioux are very hostile, and have you any idea what they will do if they capture you?
61767Are you going out in the face of the Sioux after the narrow escape you had?
61767Are you going out when the time comes?
61767Are you going to try the letter on again?
61767Are you going to try them again?
61767Are you not going to pick up your shotgun?
61767But did they never make an attack on our folks on a dark night like this, sir?
61767But do n''t you know that the soldiers are the bulwarks of civilization? 61767 But how is it going to do that?
61767But something is always happening to take you away from us,said Winged Arrow,"and what do you suppose it was that saved your life this time?"
61767But what are you going to do this time? 61767 But what was your object in selecting ME to warn ME of the massacre?
61767But why did you not take the sense of the nation on it? 61767 But why do n''t they show themselves?"
61767But why do n''t we follow them up and whip them? 61767 But, Cyrus, how do you know that the letter will prove an advantage to you?"
61767But, Guy, did you really see an Indian and converse with him?
61767By the way, do any of you see Winged Arrow?
61767By the way, who is your father?
61767Come to their death? 61767 Could you see the Sioux?"
61767Cyrus, you mean to see the commanding officer of Fort Robinson before you see us again, do n''t you?
61767Cyrus?
61767Did he shoot at you?
61767Did n''t they leave enough of you to finish your tale?
61767Did that Sioux really give you a letter, sir?
61767Did the Colonel have anything to say about my signaling?
61767Did they kill their ponies on purpose?
61767Did they read the bogus one?
61767Did they whoop and yell as the storybooks tell about?
61767Did we not make a treaty with some of your big men to have the right of way through this country?
61767Did you know Cyrus, sir?
61767Did you know that this massacre was coming before you came here?
61767Did you see Red Cloud while you were a prisoner among them?
61767Did you see any Sioux?
61767Did you see it?
61767Do any of you know English?
61767Do any of you want to change places with me?
61767Do n''t I wish that I had half the pluck that that man has?
61767Do n''t you see those feet hanging out over the side of that horse that is just going over the hill?
61767Do n''t you think you are in big business to help the Indians to clean out the whites?
61767Do you find that fellow here?
61767Do you know that to be a fact?
61767Do you know where the Indians are?
61767Do you mean Winged Arrow''s letter? 61767 Do you not think so, Major?"
61767Do you pretend to say that there are some Indians watching me now?
61767Do you really think my letter had anything to do with that?
61767Do you see any men in company D there, sir?
61767Do you see that little tuft of grass up there on the hill? 61767 Do you see that?"
61767Do you think he has got through in safety, sir?
61767Do you think they are going to attack us to- day?
61767Do you think we are going to have another massacre?
61767Do you think you can get that letter?
61767Does that mean that I am to get ready for the stake?
61767Fred, old boy, how are you?
61767Halloo, Preston, where are you going now?
61767Have I done what I could, Sergeant? 61767 Have you a needle and thread?"
61767Have you an apple about you?
61767Have you found such a thing?
61767Honor bright?
61767How did that Winged Arrow manage to get you off on this letter?
61767How do you make that out?
61767I do n''t suppose that a bullet or an arrow could stretch your Tom out dead while you were running away from them?
61767Is it Cyrus?
61767Is it a Sioux or a white man?
61767It does not seem as though there were any Sioux around here, does it, sir?
61767It is very likely that a Sioux would tell you that, is n''t it now? 61767 Kendall is the officer of the day, is he not?"
61767Know it? 61767 Must I send men, who have been with me so long through thick and thin, out to be massacred by those thievish Sioux?
61767No matter whether we whip them or not?
61767Now how was it brought about? 61767 Now where is your letter?"
61767Now will you bid me good- by, Perkins?
61767Now, have you got the other dispatch ready?
61767Over the ridge?
61767Shall I go now sir?
61767That Sioux was a friend of yours, was he not?
61767That is so; you did not see him, did you? 61767 The massacre?"
61767There are our boys alone in that tower--"And you want to go out and inform them that they are not forgotten by the garrison, do you? 61767 There were more chickens out here when I looked over the palisade at them, and where are they now?
61767They are retreating, sir?
61767They were retreating?
61767They would not come out just to follow us up, would they?
61767To warn me?
61767To you?
61767Was it that letter that you gave to Guy Preston?
61767Well, Cyrus, you ran plump into their hands, did you not?
61767Well, then, what difference will it make by saving one or two lives? 61767 Well, what is it now?"
61767Well, what of that? 61767 What about?"
61767What are they going to do to me?
61767What chance had he to learn English?
61767What did he say?
61767What did that bogus dispatch do?
61767What do you fellows intend to do with me?
61767What do you make out of it?
61767What do you mean by that?
61767What do you mean, sir, by coming into the Fort as if all the Sioux were close at your heels?
61767What do you think will happen then?
61767What do you want to kill the soldiers for? 61767 What good will it do to signal to them now?"
61767What is it intended to represent?
61767What is it, Billings?
61767What is the reason the Colonel will not let one of us go out and knock over a few of them for dinner?
61767What is the reason they did n''t shoot me down or make a prisoner of me? 61767 What is the reason you were not in it?
61767What other?
61767What signals?
61767What sort of a looking chap was he? 61767 What was his other name?"
61767What was in that letter he gave you?
61767What was it?
61767What was it?
61767What''s up?
61767When is it coming off?
61767Where did you find this letter, sir?
61767Where have you been to learn so much?
61767Where is the letter?
61767Where shall I sit down?
61767Where''s your letter?
61767Where, where?
61767Which way?
61767Who are you?
61767Who was that letter directed to?
61767Why did not one of them change places with me?
61767Why do n''t they shoot lower?
61767Why do n''t they signal to me?
61767Why do n''t we fall in and go away from here?
61767Why do n''t you run off with that? 61767 Why is that, sir?
61767Why, how is that? 61767 Why, how would it do that?"
61767Why, you do n''t expect to fall into the power of the Sioux, do you?
61767Why-- why did not Cyrus take it with him, sir?
61767Will you change places with me?
61767You are not an Indian?
61767You do know it? 61767 You just bet that I will keep out of it, if I can; but if I should be ordered to be in it-- then what?"
61767You saw it all, did you not?
61767You say he was a smart chap?
61767You would shoot yourself before you would be taken prisoner? 61767 A PRISONER AT LASTSo this is scouting for Indians, is it?"
61767A frightened lot of teamsters and soldiers went by him after a while, but where was Guy''s salute this time?
61767And I rode within twenty feet of that tuft of grass when I came down,"stammered Guy,"What had I better do?"
61767And what had caused this Red Cloud to go on the warpath?
61767And what is the reason Cyrus would not take it with him, sir?
61767And where was Guy Preston during all this time?
61767And why should not the whites be cleaned out?
61767Are they all gone?
61767Are you going now?
61767But where is Guy?"
61767CHAPTER V. THE REPRIMAND"What luck have you had?"
61767Did they know that they were going to their death?
61767Did you not answer all the signals?"
61767Do n''t you think it is about time to hear from Cyrus, sir?"
61767Do n''t you think the Colonel would give it up if you asked him?"
61767Do you have to go out?"
61767Do you remember it?"
61767Do you think they can go there without another fight?"
61767Do you understand?"
61767From the day on which you left Fort Robinson in Nebraska--""Have you followed us all the way from there?"
61767Guy, will you get the letter for me?"
61767Has anybody seen Cyrus to speak to him since he came back?"
61767Have you a drink of water about you, sir?"
61767Have you been out after any more sage hens?"
61767Have you ever seen the prairie?
61767Have you forgotten Mike and Tony?"
61767Have you told this boy what you think of him for going over the other side of the ridge?"
61767He had protested against the sending out of help, and he would do it again under the same circumstances; but at what cost?
61767How long would it be before such would be his fate?
61767How many do you suppose there are watching you night and day?"
61767How was he dressed?"
61767I had an eye on that black horse which that Lieutenant rides-- What did you say his name was?"
61767I suppose the Colonel gave you orders before you left?"
61767I wonder if you have anything to eat in the house?
61767I wonder what will be the next move the Sioux will make?
61767I would look pretty being the slave of a sneaking Sioux warrior, would I not?"
61767In response to the signals"How goes the battle?"
61767Is it going to happen out here on the plains?"
61767Is that flag all ready?
61767Is there not one left?"
61767It is awful, is it not?
61767Now and then signals came from the Fort,"How goes the battle now?"
61767Of course it was easy enough to capture the Fort, but what should be the next move on their part?
61767Oh, why did not the whites stay in their own country?"
61767Say,"he added in a lower tone,"Who was that officer who went out hunting day before yesterday?
61767Shall I break ranks, sir?"
61767So I cut loose with my rifle--""Do you mean to say that you shot while the Indians were all around you?"
61767That will be the time for me to get a letter through; do n''t you think so?"
61767The prairie is broad, and why could you not build a road somewhere else?"
61767The two young officers, for whom he cherished an affection of which some brothers might have been proud were gone and why should he be left?
61767Then what have you those clothes on for?"
61767Was he richly dressed?"
61767Was not your Company ordered out?"
61767Was that medicine strong enough to help him?
61767We have often heard that hostile Indians find refuge there when badly pressed by the troops, but how do they appear and in what shape are they?
61767Were his captors going to scalp him alive?
61767What did I tell you?
61767What did you promise your father?"
61767What do you fellows want out here anyway?
61767What has become of the balance?"
61767What have you done with that letter I gave you?"
61767What is the meaning of that?"
61767What was the reason he had not asked him his name in Indian when he met him there on the plains?
61767What would they have said about it?"
61767What''s your name?
61767When you have killed a man, why do n''t you let him alone?"
61767Where''s the Colonel?"
61767Where''s the Colonel?"
61767Why ca n''t they go away and let us alone?"
61767Why did Cyrus not take out his letter when the Sioux caught him?
61767Why did n''t you obey the Adjutant''s orders, and come in when your game flew off over the ridge?"
61767Why did not the Colonel remember this?
61767Why was it that the Colonel was so anxious to have him leave the Fort without being seen by anybody?
61767Why, where have you been?"
61767You are not afraid of a hundred Indians, are you?"
61767You do not believe in such things, do you?"
61767You do not intend to be a prisoner in the hands of those fellows, do you?"
61767You have nothing to do but to look out for the Sioux, I suppose?"
61767You say that there were Sioux watching you all the time?"
61767You will be safe up there in the signal tower--""And suppose the Sioux get whipped?"
37588A captain, dear boy?
37588Admiral, ye''re considerabul longer nor me in the legs and neck; could n''t ye wade out and make a dive for her?
37588All alive? 37588 An''the big ziant was doin''to kill zem all?

37588And did he sit down?
37588And did you go in those-- clothes?
37588And now, gentlemen,added Halcott,"can you guess to what seas my barque shall sail next?"
37588And oh, please, interesting boy,begged Eedie,"may I talk to Babs?"
37588And that is--?
37588And the sailor was dead?
37588And their strength?
37588And then he was saved?
37588And what does father do?
37588And what is your name, curious boy?
37588And where can man die better, Than in facing fearful odds?
37588And where do you live, my lad?
37588And who is Babs, you droll boy?
37588And why?
37588And ye''ve never been here once since you put up the bit of marble slab to mark the spot where_ she_ lies?
37588And you wo n''t give me Bob?
37588And you''re not drowned?
37588And you''re pretty nearly naked, are n''t you?
37588And ze axe was all tovered wi''blood and ziant''s hair? 37588 And_ me_?"
37588Are you afraid, dear?
37588Are you like me, I wonder? 37588 Are you like me, I wonder?"
37588Better than ever, daddy?
37588But they do attack you at times, these natives?
37588But whither? 37588 But will you care to land on the island we are in search of, with these fellows?"
37588But you wo n''t go to the wars again, Captain Weathereye?
37588But your family name?
37588Can the place be haunted?
37588Can you not guess? 37588 Daddy wo n''t be down for a long, long time?"
37588Deep, deep down among the rocks,she would say to Ransey,"who lives there?
37588Deep, deep,_ deep_ down,''Ansey?
37588Did n''t I tell you I''d make a man of him, Miss Scragley? 37588 Did n''t you?
37588Did she cry much?
37588Did you ever hear psychologists mention the term or feeling` ecstasy''? 37588 Did you make that pretty ship?"
37588Eh? 37588 Eh?
37588Enchanted? 37588 Father,"he says presently, as they are near to a clump of tall trees,"is n''t it just_ here_ where mother was laid?"
37588Flown quickly, father? 37588 Going on?"
37588Had your island of gold a chimney to it?
37588Halcott,said the latter, approaching the captain of the_ Sea Flower_--"Halcott, have you kept your secret?"
37588Have you noticed the glass lately, Tandy?
37588How do_ you_ know, madam? 37588 I mean, where was your gentle mother buried?"
37588I wonder will he_ ever_?
37588Is it in your power to tell us, James, where these vessels of gold were made, or where the gold was obtained?
37588Is n''t it possible to build one?
37588Is there no toast this morning?
37588Is there, for honest poverty, That hangs his head, and a''that? 37588 It was just here, was it not,"said Halcott,"where the entrance was?
37588Kaik-- kaik-- kay-- ay?
37588May I ask you a question or two, you most interesting boy?
37588May I look on while you cook?
37588Miss Nelda?
37588Never, never,''Ansey?
37588Nor the Admiral?
37588Now, would you like to go to school?
37588O Jane, are you here?
37588O daddy,she cried, kissing his weather- beaten face,"are we safe?"
37588O father,said Babs one autumn evening,"are n''t_ you_ frightened at the roaring of the sea?"
37588Of course we would stay all night? 37588 Oh, will the morning never come?
37588Oh, will ye, though?
37588Oh, ye wo n''t, wo n''t ye? 37588 Oh, you dear, droll''Rallie,"cried the child, smiling through her tears,"and so you''re not drowned?"
37588Oh, you''ve been to church, then?
37588Oh,she said,"you''s tome back, has''oo?"
37588Poor Hallie,cried Babs, sympathisingly,"does your headie ache?"
37588Secret?
37588Seen them before?
37588Shall we go below and talk a little?
37588Six''oung ladies, all stlung up by ze hair o''zer heads? 37588 Sleep?
37588So ye ca n''t see no signs o''father, or the barge, eh? 37588 So you''re very happy all of you, and always were?"
37588Stones and ashes? 37588 That wady[ lady] wo n''t take Babs away,''Ansey?"
37588The exact longitude and latitude?
37588The other shares are in the market then?
37588The ship did go to the bottom though, did n''t it,''cause I heard the water all rush down?
37588Then, cusses on you, why do n''t ye speak? 37588 There was n''t a coal mine or a factory of any kind on it, was there?
37588They are coming again?
37588They think they''re going to leave me behind, do they? 37588 Three years?
37588To- morrow? 37588 Very prettily put, Mr Davies,"said Miss Scragley;"do n''t_ you_ think so, Dr Fairincks?"
37588Was there only one?
37588Well, how''s all the family?
37588Well, mum, I could n''t go with nuthin''on-- could I, now? 37588 Well, shall I come up and bring a bigger glass?"
37588What could these have been, think you, James?
37588What do you make of her, sir?
37588What is it, old heart? 37588 What is to be done?"
37588What is your theory, Halcott?
37588What may a` call- crow''be, Halcott?
37588What mean you, Durdley?
37588What on earth can it be?
37588What think you, men,he said, looking round him,"came up with the fire and the smoke from the throat of that volcanic hill?"
37588What was it? 37588 Where is he?
37588Which dog, do you think, began the fight?
37588Who knows,said James, with far more cheerfulness in his voice than usual--"who knows but that our deliverance is already at hand?
37588Who told you so?
37588Who will be the next to die? 37588 Why do n''t you throw me overboard?"
37588Why not, Captain Weathereye?
37588Why, Tandy, my dear fellow, this is n''t a ship any more; it''s a yacht?
37588Why, Tandy, what see you?
37588Why, dear?
37588Ye mebbe do n''t see nuthin''o''father, do ye?
37588You are quite, quite sure father is n''t drownded? 37588 You do n''t mean in the canal, surely?"
37588You think, then, they will return?
37588You_ hear_?
37588` And what saw you, James?'' 37588 ` And you know this cave, Fitz?''
37588` Anything wrong, James?'' 37588 ` But why not steer northwards?''
37588` Did you hear it?'' 37588 ` Going to by- by am I?
37588` I''m not a merman, or anything, am I, mother? 37588 ` Is that what you call them, captain?''
37588` James,''I said,` have n''t you made some mistake?'' 37588 ` Never been here before?''
37588` Off, James?'' 37588 ` What are you doing, or trying to do, Charles Halcott?''
37588` What on earth,''I said once to him,` do you use the specs for, my friend?'' 37588 ` Will you speak first?''
37588''Oo''s_ twite_ sure o''zat?"
37588''Oo''s_ twite_ sure zer was six?"
37588A sailor?
37588Ai n''t got ne''er a bit o''baccy about ye, has ye, miss?''
37588An''may I enquiah if you are the-- the-- the waggamuffin who saw Miss Scwagley in the wood yestah- day?"
37588And are we all drowned?"
37588And where does your mother sleep, Ransey?"
37588And will Babs go with you?"
37588And you are sure no awful beasts have come up with long arms?
37588And-- and then?
37588Are they sharks?
37588Are ye on board, Admiral?"
37588Are you all willing?''
37588Are you not wise enough to know that, even if you procure this photograph, you will have to keep it a secret from honest James Malone?
37588Away to the woods?
37588Before now, Charles Halcott, I''ve seen a ship sunk in the twinkling of a marling- spike by a--''"` By striking against a berg, James?''
37588But could any boy, or girl either, be really poor who had so many friends in field and forest, and by the winding stream?
37588But what will you dwink-- sherry, port, champagne-- wum?
37588But where, think you, do I mean to sail to next?
37588But would the gold be of any use to them?
37588But, before going further, tell me what is your Christian name?"
37588Can a millionaire enjoy sport or play any better than you or I, reader?
37588Can it climb up and swallow us?"
37588Can you read?"
37588Consult the captain, did you say?"
37588Could we expect or dare, as a last resource, to reach the far- off land in two open boats?
37588Did_ you_ see the beautiful vision-- the lovely child?''
37588Do n''t those shoes pinch a bit?"
37588Eh?
37588Ever hear these lines, Miss Scragley?
37588Fire?
37588Food?
37588For a''that, and a''that, Our toils obscure, and a''that; The rank is but the guinea stamp, The man''s the gowd for a''that?"
37588Has I been afeep[ asleep],''Ansey?"
37588Has he a better appetite from the fact that he can afford to coax it with every costly dainty that cash can purchase?
37588Has some beautiful bird brought you a letter from home?"
37588Have you a mother?"
37588Have you ever experienced the effects of a volcanic eruption in any of these islands?"
37588Having smashed the postman with a mushy turnip?
37588His last word was` Victory;''and well may we now add,` O death, where is thy sting?
37588How best could the Crusoes repel boarders if the palisade were carried, and a rush made down the embankment with the view of attacking the ship?
37588How is it that sailors so often resemble one another?
37588How to make sure?
37588Human blood looks ghastly on white coral sands, but was Tandy to blame?
37588I am never sorry for the downfall of speculators; for, after all, what is speculation but a species of gambling-- gambling for high stakes?
37588I do n''t end in ling, do I, mother?''
37588I mean, do many save yourself know of the existence of gold on that island of blood?"
37588I''m goin''to run wild for a bit, are you?"
37588Is he more happy?
37588Is he more healthy?
37588Is n''t it just too awfully jolly for anything?"
37588Is not the image of the lady who has bewitched you indelibly photographed upon your soul?
37588Is that right?"
37588Is this all?
37588James, will you bear us company?''
37588Land, eh?"
37588Live, brother, live?"
37588May I ask if this is the doag that neahly killed the postman fellah?"
37588Mrs Mac, where are you?
37588Music been too much for you?
37588Need I tell you what they were thinking about?
37588Not so very old, am I?
37588Now will you be better than usual?"
37588O grave, where is thy victory?''
37588Physic?
37588Please, may I come again?
37588Ransey here can make his way in the world.--Can''t you, Ransey?"
37588Rum?
37588Shall the plague be stayed?
37588Shall we, reader?
37588Should they get the largest boat ready, provision her, and put to sea?
37588So you missed your old father, little lass, did you?
37588So, what would you like to be?
37588Such remarks as the following fell upon our ears at every corner:--"` Well, you''ve got back again, James?''
37588Surely the stranger sailors would dance?
37588Tell me, tell me,"wept the wee lass,"is the ship at the bottom?
37588The big haul of fish he had caught?
37588The conversation seemed to be somewhat as follows:--"You and I are about the same size, are n''t we?"
37588There''s no good in schools, Miss Scragley, that I know of, except that the flogging hardens them.--Well, lad, you wo n''t go to school?
37588Too young, Miss Scragley?
37588Was he not a guard?
37588Was it marooning, I wonder?
37588Was it the heat of internal fires, or was it terror-- I know not which-- that made the perspiration stand in great beads on their now pale faces?
37588Was there any way of accounting for this?
37588Was there nothing to break the dread stillness?
37588Were the savages all killed, and shot, and drowned?
37588Whales?
37588What about making overtures of peace to them, brother James?"
37588What could it mean?
37588What could such things as these have to do with the red man of the wild West, the solitary scalp- hunter of the boundless prairie?
37588What did he see when he woke up again?"
37588What did that signify to those determined gold- seekers?
37588What is a promise, even on oath, from such bloodthirsty villains as these?
37588What is the matter?
37588What mattered it?
37588What may be the naychure of your business?"
37588What should you propose, Weathereye?"
37588Whatever is that,''Ansey?"
37588Where do you sail from?"
37588Who can tell?
37588Who indeed?''
37588Why did it run away anyhow?"
37588Why do n''t you raise your standard?
37588Will you come and live with me?"
37588Would it not be as well, I advanced, to attempt to rescue the ladies by force?
37588Would n''t us, Bob?"
37588Would the strangers dance?
37588Would they come back again?
37588Would you dare to stab your captain?
37588Would you disobey your mother?''
37588You love the_ Sea Flower_?"
37588` Now, sir, shall we call all hands, and see to rifles and ammunition?''
37588` Why have you left us?
37588` Will I_ ever_ have a home on the green earth, I wonder, or shall I die on the blue sea?''
37588and can they talk to you?"
37588and leave Babs?
37588and will the sun never shine again?
37588at sea?
37588away?"
37588broke his head?"
37588exclaimed Eedie;"may n''t I kiss it, auntie?"
37588he began haughtily,"am I right in my conjecture that this is''Angman''s''All?"
37588he cried,` ye do n''t seem an over- lively lot here, I must say, but has e''er a one o''ye got sich a thing as a bit o''baccy?''
37588he said quickly;"where is she, and how is she, Jane?"
37588he said to himself, which being interpreted seemed to signify,"What do_ they_ want here, anyhow?
37588mother?''
37588she said, solemnly now;"does''oo fink[ think]''Ansey''as fallen in and dlowned hisself?"
37588she used to remark to herself, when she had finished saying her prayers and was preparing to undress--"ever--_ever_?"
37588the war, Captain Weathereye?"
37588what_ am_ I to do with you?''
37588why have you left the seas?
37588you here, Lord Fitzmantle?"
18868''And they lived?'' 18868 ''Are you, then, a hakim?''
18868''Bimbashi,''they said,''what will be done about you? 18868 ''But what would be done if they had not that sleep medicine?''
18868''Could you do that?'' 18868 ''Is there any place where I can put my horse?''
18868''No,''I said;''who am I, that they should come to me? 18868 ''What are the knives for?''
18868''What say you, Abu? 18868 ''You are still determined to go?''
18868''You have been some time at Khartoum?'' 18868 ''You hear what my son says?
18868''You really think that would come of it?'' 18868 After you were cut off, I suppose?"
18868Alexandria?
18868And did you succeed in your search?
18868And has any news been received of the whereabouts of the Khalifa?
18868And if a man fails altogether, what is there open to him?
18868And now, what about yourself, what would you like to do?
18868And so you, too, leapt overboard to save a woman?
18868And there are wells?
18868And what are you going to do?
18868And what became of that?
18868And what was the illness you had, Mother?
18868And where do you think the great fight is likely to take place?
18868And where is the pocketbook, now?
18868And you never heard of anything being hidden, before the British troops arrived?
18868And you speak the language of the Nubian blacks?
18868And you would, if necessary-- say, in the case of illness of one of my clerks-- be ready to help in the office?
18868And you,Mahmud said, turning to Zaki,"you are a Jaalin, are you not?"
18868And your mother, do they know anything of her?
18868Are the Dervishes all gone?
18868Are there any Dervishes about?
18868Are we going to put on those Dervish dresses at once, master? 18868 Are you hurt, Zaki?"
18868Are you hurt, master?
18868As his eyes fell upon me, he said,''When are you going to begin?'' 18868 But I suppose he is really heir to it?"
18868But I suppose he might be a doctor, a clergyman, or a lawyer?
18868But I thought that they could not break in there?
18868But the white officer-- what became of him?
18868But there was no harm in that, Mother?
18868But what are you going to do, Gregory?
18868But what are you masquerading for, in this dress; and where have you come from?
18868But why did n''t you go straight back, instead of coming down here?
18868But will they not kill him?
18868By the way, have you heard that Mahmud is captured? 18868 Can I speak to you for a few minutes, sir?"
18868Can you give me references?
18868Can you take me to the place?
18868Can you use a pistol?
18868Could we not go into the camp, my lord?
18868Did he talk Arabic well?
18868Did you hear of any other things being hidden?
18868Did you know the father?
18868Do we take everything with us?
18868Do you give me your promise that you will no more fight against us?
18868Do you know anything about it?
18868Do you know if any remains of that expedition are still in existence?
18868Do you know when your father left England?
18868Do you know whether Mahmud''s army is in Metemmeh, or outside the town?
18868Do you know whether any booty was hidden away, before the English came?
18868Do you remember how long he arrived before the steamer started?
18868Do you speak our tongue?
18868Do you think you are fit to ride?
18868Does he dress as a native?
18868Had they any cannon with them?
18868Has a party of infidels passed along here?
18868Have I not sworn, Fatma,he said,"that I would slay every unbeliever who falls into my hands?
18868Have you a written despatch?
18868Have you been in this beastly country long?
18868Have you come down from the front?
18868Have you everything ready, Hilliard?
18868How about your baggage?
18868How can that be?
18868How do you do it?
18868How far do you think we are from the river now? 18868 How long do you think we shall be, on the way?"
18868How long have you been here?
18868How long is it since you lost her?
18868How many more miles do you think we have to go, Zaki?
18868How many were there of them?
18868How much more is there left?
18868How much water have you got in the bags?
18868I hope you have quite shaken off the fever?
18868I suppose most of the Arab tribes in the Soudan speak a dialect very much like the Baggara?
18868I suppose you have no idea how long you will be away?
18868I suppose you smoke?
18868I suppose you think that the Dervishes mean fighting?
18868Is it difficult to find the way?
18868Is it easy for anyone who has been well educated, and who is a gentleman, to get employment there? 18868 Is it really you, Hilliard?"
18868Is it you, Zaki?
18868Is that all your kit?
18868Is that you, my lord?
18868Is there any chance of getting taken up to Merawi? 18868 Is there any great force at Abu Hamed?"
18868Is there any news?
18868Is there anything I can do for my lord?
18868Is there anything else that you can think of?
18868Is there anything to be done about it, sir?
18868Is your message of a private character?
18868Leslie,he shouted in English,"will you kindly call off your soldiers?
18868Mahmud would do that, I am sure,one of them said,"if he had but his will; but how could we march without provisions?
18868Many more?
18868May I ask how that is?
18868May I ask who you are, sir?
18868May I ask why you put the question, Hilliard? 18868 May I ask, General, what is to be done with the women?"
18868May I ask, to begin with, how it is that the advertisement has, for so many years, remained unanswered?
18868May I speak with my master?
18868My dear Aunts,he said,"what in the world am I to do?
18868No one else, here, would know more about it than you do?
18868Now, do you ride? 18868 Now, may I ask how you are situated, with regard to money?
18868Now, sir, will you deliver your message to me?
18868Shall I take my servant with me, sir?
18868Shall we take the three months''pay and remain here, or shall we go back to England?
18868She had a pension, had n''t she?
18868So you say the Sirdar blew you up? 18868 That is to say, water will be found nearly every day?"
18868The Baggara are mostly mounted, are they not?
18868The question is, what should I do here? 18868 Then he escaped?"
18868Then interest has nothing to do with it?
18868Then we are going among the Dervishes, again?
18868Then will you come in?
18868Then you do not intend to remain in the Egyptian Army?
18868Then you will not pursue, sir?
18868There is no fear of their straying, I suppose, Zaki?
18868To what tribe do you belong?
18868To work on the railway, or in the transport?
18868Well, will you sit down, Mr. Hilliard,the General said,"and give us a full account?
18868What are they going to do?
18868What can we do? 18868 What did you pay for the shovel, Zaki?"
18868What do you make them out to be, Zaki? 18868 What do you think, Annie?"
18868What do you think, yourself?
18868What happened then?
18868What is it, Gregory?
18868What is that, Zaki?
18868What is to be done now?'' 18868 What is your name?"
18868What say you, Father? 18868 What shall I have to do, master?"
18868What shall we take, master?
18868What will be done with the men, sir?
18868When do we go?
18868When will you be at Abu Hamed, sir?
18868When will you be ready, do you suppose?
18868Where is Fadil and his army, that they thus allowed so small a force to march along, unmolested?
18868Where is he, now?
18868Where should I be most likely to meet the Dervishes first?
18868Which of you is it? 18868 Who can they be?"
18868Why ask questions?
18868Why, what is the matter with you, Zaki?
18868Will it be very hot, Gregory?
18868Will the estates go with the title, Hartley?
18868Will you be away long?
18868Will you call again, in half an hour? 18868 Will you come with me?"
18868Will you kindly report my capture to Colonel Wingate or General Hunter? 18868 Will you swim with us till I can touch the ground, and then leave us?
18868Would you take me, my lord?
18868You are a new arrival, I think, sir?
18868You are satisfied with your horse? 18868 You brought your portmanteau with you, I hope?"
18868You did not hear his name?
18868You did not say whether we were to take the horses, Master; but I suppose you will do so?
18868You do not mind in what capacity you go?
18868You do not speak the Baggara language, I suppose?
18868You have been up at the front before, sir?
18868You have found nothing, my lord?
18868You have got your horse?
18868You have heard what has been said? 18868 You know the country, I suppose?"
18868You quite understand, Mr. Hilliard, that you are taking your life in your hands? 18868 You speak Arabic, and the tongue of the Negro blacks, almost as well as English?"
18868You speak both Arabic and the Negro dialect perfectly, I am told?
18868You want to go up to the Soudan?
18868You want to go up?
18868You were engaged in the city during the siege, were you not?
18868You will report well of us, I hope, to the great English commander?
18868Your father fell with Hicks Pasha, I am told, and you have joined us with the object of obtaining news as to the manner in which he met his death?
18868''May I touch him?''
18868''Why should you risk bringing on inflammation, merely for the sake of getting about a few days earlier?''
18868A look of surprise came over the merchant''s face, and he said:"Have you called on your own account?"
18868Abu told me that his wife, of whom he was very fond, was suffering very great pain from a tooth-- could I cure her?
18868And in the second, how you have learned it?"
18868And secondly, which shall we like best?
18868And that there is no possibility, whatever, of our doing anything for you, if you get into trouble?"
18868Are there any among the bravest of the tribes who would have done the same?"
18868Besides, has not Mudil saved my life, and so become my brother?''
18868Besides, you have been on Hunter''s staff, have you not?"
18868Can I take him away at once?"
18868Can he speak English?"
18868Can not you let him go, too?"
18868Can you borrow a shovel, or something of that sort, from one of the natives here?
18868Can you tell me that?"
18868Can you tell me the address of my aunts?
18868Can you, Mudil?''
18868Do you decide to go on foot, or mounted?"
18868Do you know the country between this and Metemmeh?"
18868Do you know what their losses have been?"
18868Do you think that I had better go mounted, or on foot?"
18868Do you think that they would have remained so long in the town, if they had learned that there are but two hundred of us, and one steamer?
18868Do you think there is any fear of the Dervishes following our tracks?"
18868Do you want to draw any money?"
18868First, which would be best for us?
18868Had he been concealed, for months, in the hut of a friendly tribesman?
18868Had he been enslaved, and was he still lingering on, in a wretched existence?
18868Had he been killed, in trying to make his way down?
18868Had he made off in disguise, only to be murdered by wandering bands?
18868Have I your permission to ride forward, and call upon them to surrender?"
18868Have you news of Mahmud?"
18868Have you read your father''s diary, yet?"
18868He may have fallen before they surrendered-- who can say?
18868Hilliard?"
18868Hilliard?"
18868Hilliard?"
18868How can I, a poor man, know how to do such things?
18868How did you find them?"
18868How far is it from the well to El Obeid?''
18868How is it that no one knows a man who rides with a slave?''
18868How long is it since you left?"
18868How long will you be?"
18868How many miles are we above its junction with the White Nile?"
18868How would you sell it?"
18868How, then, can I spare even one who has saved your life?"
18868I fully share his feelings; for could I not, with my cavalry, sweep them before me into the river, even though no footmen came with me?
18868I have pleased myself, have n''t I?
18868I suppose General Hunter has told you how I proposed utilizing your services?"
18868I suppose nothing more is known about it?"
18868I suppose you have a horse?"
18868I suppose you managed to give them the slip, somehow?"
18868I suppose you threw up your appointment, as soon as you discovered that Geoffrey died, years ago, and that you had come into the title?"
18868I suppose your horses are on board?"
18868If Mahmud and the great emirs are all content to wait, why should we be impatient?"
18868If so, what had become of him, all these years?
18868If we are not to fight, why were we sent here?
18868In the first place, what you have learned?
18868Is it indiscreet to ask you if you know anything about your father''s family?"
18868Is it not our duty to help one another?
18868Is it wonderful that they should come to you and be faithful?"
18868Is there any chance of it?"
18868Is there anything more for you to do to him?''
18868It is agreed, then, that if I go on this expedition, you will accompany me?"
18868May I ask a favour?
18868May I ask if your father bore the same Christian names?"
18868May your servant ask why you put these questions?"
18868Murray?"
18868Must we always be fighting?
18868Must we always be ignorant?
18868None will be spared on either side-- why should this man be spared?
18868Now, where were you when this business took place?"
18868Of course, you have your pass?"
18868Of course, you will put on Dervish robes and badges?"
18868Pearson?"
18868People might say,''Who is this man?
18868Presently Gregory caught the words:"How is it that this young fellow calls himself Bimbashi, which, I believe, means major?"
18868Shall I bring them on board?"
18868The Emirs say to Mahmud that you ought to be killed; their followers are well- nigh starving-- why should an infidel prisoner be eating?
18868The Staffordshire regiment went down, directly the place was taken, did they not?"
18868The leader said,"Where are my friends going and why do they halt?"
18868This is your first experience in soldiering, I suppose?"
18868Was it merely some Dervish scouts, who had come in contact with our pickets, or was it an attacking force?
18868Well, have you heard anything about a move?"
18868Were you to go to England, with the child, what chance would you have of obtaining employment there, without friends or references?
18868What can I do for you?"
18868What did it matter, so that he could save her life?
18868What do you say to my coming and living with you, when he has gone?
18868What do you think of it?"
18868What follower of the Prophet could do more?
18868What food have we got?"
18868What had he been doing, since?
18868What is a walk of a few miles?
18868What is your name?"
18868What news have you?"
18868When do you wish me to sail?
18868Whence do you come?''
18868Where did you spring from?
18868Where does he come from?
18868Which way do you think we had better turn?"
18868Why did not your mother send his letter to us?"
18868Why should we come thus far from Omdurman, if we are to go no farther?"
18868Will the colour last?"
18868Will you bring me the three men you speak of?
18868Will you kindly tell me what I had better do?"
18868Will you kindly tell me what I should have to do?"
18868Will you sit down on that box?
18868Will you swear to me that, if you are questioned, you will say you know nothing of my flight?''
18868Will you tell Mr. Hilliard that I authorize him to call himself Bimbashi?
18868Will you want this chest carried?''
18868Would the Egyptian horsemen stand firm, or would they give way to panic?
18868Would the present attack be repulsed in time for the position to be changed, to meet the coming storm?
18868You are starting in three days, are you not?
18868You are surely not going to be foolish enough to chuck it, with the idea of returning to England, and taking anything that may turn up?"
18868You can never have ridden, much less walked, across the desert from Omdurman?"
18868You do n''t know any more about his father than you have told me?"
18868You have got some iodine from the doctor, have you not?"
18868You have heard what this man says; what do you think?''
18868You have not been appointed to any particular battalion, have you?"
18868You have not brought a servant up with you, I suppose?"
18868You told me you had no remembrance of him?"
18868You would not fight for the Mahdi?''
18868Your followers have surrendered?"
13840Ah, child, in these days of death, who is to know so much as where to carry one''s questions? 13840 Am I to lose my last and only stay and solace?"
13840And now, may I not go to him? 13840 And oh, my lord, can you tell us if the bridge is safe?"
13840And our parents and those at home?
13840And thou art getting together a little business again, father, on the Southwark side of the river?
13840And thou wert willing to wait?
13840And what is that, young man?
13840And who has bought the old Bridge house?
13840Ay, verily; but where may that be? 13840 Ben, wouldst thou rather turn back and see no more?
13840Boy, who art thou? 13840 But art thou sure that thy good kinsmen will have room within their walls?
13840But do you think, sir, that that is ever done where means may be found to avoid it?
13840But surely his Majesty knows?
13840Can he speak? 13840 Can she be moved?
13840Child, child, what ails thee? 13840 Come, children, what say you to this?
13840Do men ever recover when once attacked by the plague?
13840Does she think much of him?
13840Dorcas, child, where art thou? 13840 Doth she often speak to thee of thy kindred, child?"
13840Extinguished? 13840 Fair mistress,"he said gallantly,"hast thou nothing to ask?
13840Father, will our house be burned?
13840Father,she urged, as she saw that her parent still hesitated,"what would have become of us without Dinah?
13840Gertrude, why do you not answer when I speak to you? 13840 Good fellow, who told you that I should leave my house?
13840Has Mistress Gertrude mourned for him too?
13840Hast heard, sister, whether many poor creatures have perished in the flames? 13840 Have we not enough upon our hands without having sound persons mad enough to seek to add to the numbers of the sick?
13840Have we not played as brother and sister together, and do not times like this draw closer the bonds of friendship? 13840 Have you heard news of the bridge?
13840Have you the key?
13840He is not-- dead?
13840How dare you speak so to your brother, girl?
13840How was it that thou didst adventure thyself with the rescuing party in the boat?
13840If Frederick takes it, will he be like to live?
13840Is he worse?
13840Is it always so with them?
13840Is it not yet extinguished, my lord?
13840Is it the sudden stoppage of all trade?
13840Is there aught you would wish to do ere giving the notice to my father?
13840Is this thy nest, thou pretty songbird?
13840Lady Desborough?
13840My little bird, didst thou think we should leave thee to perish here?
13840My poor child, did you think I was never coming to you?
13840Nay, now what ails thee, child? 13840 O good aunt, what can resist the oncoming fury of such a fearful conflagration?
13840Oh, tell me, what must I do for all these little ones-- and for the baby? 13840 Oh, what can have befallen him?
13840Oh, what has my father done with him? 13840 Oh, what is it?
13840Oh,cried Gertrude in amaze,"what can she have done it for?
13840Shall I see a wondrous change there when I go back, father?
13840So soon?
13840Sweet heart, sweet heart, where art thou-- oh where art thou?
13840Then how shall we get out?
13840Then, father, may we go?
13840Then, madam,he answered,"if such be the case, would it not be well to consider whether you do not remove yourself ere these things comne to pass?
13840There are but three left out of seven living yesterday, and what is to become of them?
13840Thou hast been purifying and disinfecting houses, they say, for the wealthy ones of the city?
13840Well, lad, hast thou seen the Lord Mayor?
13840Well,she asked in her clear, sharp tones,"and what is going to be done next?"
13840What about your mistress, Lady Scrope, Dorcas? 13840 What are you doing here, child?"
13840What call have you to chide him? 13840 What can be the meaning of that?"
13840What does he mean?
13840What has happened during this sad time to ruin you, dear father?
13840What is being done? 13840 What is that noise I hear all the time?"
13840What is your remedy, madam?
13840What mean you, father?
13840What means all this? 13840 What must we do?"
13840What of Reuben?
13840What, brother?
13840What, my child? 13840 Where is the maid?"
13840Where wilt thou go, brother?
13840Who is there?
13840Why have we not thought of her? 13840 Why should Dorcas not come?"
13840Why, how so?
13840Will that make you happy, dear heart? 13840 Will they fling him, with never a prayer, into some great pit such as I have heard spoken of?"
13840Wilt thou go home to thy mother, boy? 13840 Would our good aunt approve?"
13840You would not have us move her now, ere the danger approaches?
13840A man suddenly put in his head from the open door at the other end and asked of anybody who could answer him:"Room for any more here?"
13840Against rules for persons to pass from infected houses into clean ones?
13840Am I not his most unhappy sister?"
13840Am I not to hear the music of thy voice also?"
13840Am I to be thrown upon his generosity in my hour of poverty, when I was denied to him in my day of supposed wealth?
13840Am I to send thee forth to thy death in this terrible city, stricken by the hand of God?"
13840And are we not bidden to do unto others as we would have them do unto us in like case?"
13840And how goes the sick lady?"
13840And if I be not troubled thereby, what matter if all the world goes mad?
13840And if it break out in the midst of us, who can say where it will end?"
13840And that being so, what did anything else matter?
13840And what art thou doing to the wall?"
13840And what good did the gold do me or any person else?
13840And who can say in these days, take what precaution he will, that he may not already have upon him the dreaded tokens?
13840Are any dead at home?"
13840Are any left alive?
13840Are we to lose every ancient building of historic fame?
13840Art thou afraid to come forth?
13840Ben, what sayest thou?"
13840But has no watch been kept upon the streets that such acts can be done by the evil disposed?
13840But how could he by any possibility be here, so far away from home, so utterly beyond the limits of his own district?
13840But if our house be infected, how can it be possible for thee to come and go?
13840But what indeed could the terrified people do, wakened out of their sleep in the dead of night to find their houses burning about their ears?
13840But what think you I found there today?"
13840But when a man has the strength of ten what can one poor old woman do?"
13840But who can tell how many other victims such a miserable creature may not have infected first?"
13840But who can tell?
13840But why do we tarry at home eating our hearts out, when the whole world is before us, and there be such wondrous things to see?
13840But will our father let us go forth?
13840But, father, is all lost past recovery?
13840Can any one save us now?"
13840Can none of the watch or of the constables tell you aught, or help you to recover aught?"
13840Can we do aught for you ere we go?"
13840Can we do nothing to help them?"
13840Can we have a nurse?
13840Can you make shift to bring out the sick lady to this window?
13840Certainly there did appear to be a strange murkiness and haze in the air; and was there not a smell as of burning?
13840Child, child, how didst thou obtain entrance here?
13840Come with some news, perchance?
13840Could it have escaped the contagion?
13840Did not our Lord say to those who visited the sick in their necessity,''Ye have done it unto me''?"
13840Do I not owe thee my life?
13840Does not that show that we belong to each other?
13840Dost think I am scared by this bogey talk of plague?
13840Dost thou know, Reuben, what has befallen to make my father look as he did but now?
13840Dost thou think he will return in time?"
13840For what does it matter what befalls the frail mortal body?
13840Has she received any hurt?"
13840Has she said aught of leaving London?
13840Have I not lost all but thee?
13840Have I not told you a hundred times that I would have none of that sort of talk any more?
13840Have ye the strength to go forward?
13840Here I was born, and here I mean to die; and whether death comes by the plague or by some other messenger what care I?
13840His face brightened at sight of his brother, yet he did not relax his efforts, only saying eagerly:"How goes it at home with them all, Joseph?
13840How came that about?"
13840How do you think business will thrive if all the men run away from their shops like affrighted sheep?
13840How shall any one get a letter safely delivered to her in time?
13840How wilt thou like that?"
13840How would Madam have acted had her child come to her in such a plight?
13840I thought you had shown yourself a girl of spirit, and had sent him about his business when he came a- wooing, eh?"
13840I trust no poor creatures are in peril?
13840I will come to thee anon; but thou wilt not fear to be thus left?
13840I would fain say a farewell word to them ere we go forth, for who knows whether we may see them again?"
13840If God- fearing men did not scruple to desecrate consecrated churches, was it likely that their godless successors would have greater misgivings?
13840If it pleases me to throw it away on a pair of fools, whose business is that but mine?
13840If such be so, who knows when he is safe?
13840If thou hast courage to stay with me, why hast thou not courage to enjoy such a sight as thou wilt not see twice in a lifetime?"
13840If we were to lie stricken of mortal illness, should we think it a Christ- like act for all men to flee away from us?
13840Is all property in the city at the mercy of the violent and wicked?"
13840Is he a relation of yours?
13840Is he answerable to you for his acts?"
13840Is he dying too?
13840Is it indeed thou?
13840Is it my fantasy, or do I smell burning?
13840Is it not written in the very heavens that the city is to be destroyed?
13840Is not she the one who is waiting maid to that mad old witch woman in Allhallowes, Lady Scrope?"
13840Is not that the name of Master Mason''s daughter?"
13840Is she safe?
13840Is there no way else?
13840Is there something the matter going on?"
13840Know you not that it is almost enough to frighten a timid serving wench into the distemper to see such signs upon the doors?
13840Marry that I might fling it away at dice or cards with those who came to visit me?
13840May we commence our task of rescue?"
13840Need it be told here how that fire was stayed?
13840O Reuben, dost think the King has remembered my words to him?
13840O father, how can that be?
13840O mother, mother, shall I too look like that when my turn comes to die?"
13840Oh, where was Lord Desborough?
13840Oh, why do such terrible things befall us?"
13840Ought we to take her elsewhere?"
13840Seeing Joseph close by he gave him a nod, and said:"Hast come to fetch home thy brother?
13840Shall I have to die in the streets, or to go to the pest house?
13840Shall I open it?"
13840Shall that suffice us?"
13840Should we not think about whither to take her if it be needful?"
13840Tell me, is this the plague?"
13840Tends her fancy that way at all?"
13840The magistrates do their best to keep order in the city, but who can fight against the odds of such a time as this?
13840Then what can it matter whether the risk be a little more or less?
13840There be seven lying dead in this street today, and though folks say they died of other fevers and distempers, who can tell?
13840There will be many to help them I trow?"
13840They all talk of the east, but what does that mean?
13840Think ye that ye can bear them?
13840Think you that they could leave the house together?
13840Was Benjamin dreaming?
13840Was ever such a fire known before?
13840Was not even guilty Sodom warned of its approaching doom?
13840Well, well, well; how goes it in the city?
13840What are the city magnates about that they stand idle, wringing their hands, whilst all London burns about their ears?"
13840What are the people doing?"
13840What boots it to be alive, if one is buried or shut up as we are?
13840What could it be?
13840What could it be?
13840What do you mean, girl?"
13840What does he purpose to do?
13840What does it all mean?"
13840What does it matter to me?
13840What good did the gold do me, thinkest thou, shut away in yonder box?
13840What has happened to bring any person into this shut- up house?
13840What in fortune''s name means all this?
13840What is Lady Desborough to me?
13840What is a man to do for the best?
13840What is a man to do with such a wife and such a son?"
13840What is it that makes the difference?
13840What matters it a few years earlier or later?
13840What mean you by speaking of my future thus?
13840What news from home bring you, dear lads?
13840What of that?"
13840What of this girl Dorcas?
13840What possessed you to seek shelter here?
13840What say you?
13840What should I do in a strange place with strange surroundings?
13840What should we have done had no help come to us in our hour of need?
13840What think you I had preserved it there for?
13840What think you of Dinah?
13840What though it should cost her her life?
13840What was that noise?
13840What will become of him?"
13840What will become of me?
13840What would befall my poor young wife if the fire were to threaten this house?"
13840What would have become of us had no kind neighbours befriended us?
13840What would his Majesty say were that to perish also?
13840Where has the fire reached to?
13840Where is he gone?
13840Where is my husband?
13840Where was he?
13840Who and what could be behind that wall?
13840Who came to thy relief?
13840Who can know what place is safe?
13840Who can tell me if my father''s house has escaped?"
13840Who knows that contagion may not dwell in the very air?
13840Who knows whose turn may come next?"
13840Who would have thought that that cross old madwoman would have turned so kindly disposed towards the poor and sick as she hath done?"
13840Whom have I in the wide world besides yourself?"
13840Why are there double the number of deaths in this week''s bill, if more than are set down as such be not the distemper?"
13840Why do n''t you get your silk embroidery or practise upon the spinnet?
13840Why does the child speak thus?
13840Why dost thou spring up and look at me like that?"
13840Why may not I do likewise?
13840Why might not she make one of this band?
13840Why should He not send some such messenger before He proceeded to take vengeance upon an ungodly city?
13840Why should thou or I suffer?
13840Why should we so greatly fear, when no man can say who will be smitten and who will escape?
13840Why stop ye here?"
13840Why stop you at your father''s house?
13840Why, what good do you think reading will do you?
13840Will His hand be stayed till all is destroyed?
13840Will you give me your authority to bear away hence all such things as may be most readily transported and are of most value?
13840Wilt thou work hand in hand with me for the salvation of our goods and houses, even though it may mean present loss?"
13840Would anything ever stop the oncoming sea of fire?
13840Would he come again?
13840Would he try to see her any more?
13840Would it not be a wrong against those who lay down these laws for the preservation of the city?"
13840Would this be the end of everything between them?
13840Your brother?
13840and how camest thou hither so late?"
13840and thou wast with her all the time!--thou didst even touch and handle her?"
13840and what dost thou here?
13840and who are these?"
13840art thou bereft of thy senses, child?
13840asked his father quickly and sternly;"is the man lost to all sense of his duties?
13840asked the father, half playfully, half reproachfully;"and if so affrighted, why didst thou not fly home to thy nest?
13840but she is in a temper, is she, my lady?
13840can you not see that I can never consent to be his now?
13840cried Madam, in a sudden panic;"who says that?
13840do you not know me?
13840do you think a dirty shopman would dare lay hands upon me?
13840dost think he has put in a plea for my father when the city is rebuilt?"
13840hand within Reuben''s arm, and asked him in a whisper:"Thinkest thou, Reuben, that it betides evil to the city?"
13840has he talked to you?
13840in times like these what can men hope to do by their rules and regulations?
13840is that thy voice indeed?
13840must it be so?
13840or shall I go alone?"
13840or was it but the idea suggested by the man''s words?
13840or was it really their brother?
13840she cried, in a shaking voice; and immediately the hand was withdrawn, whilst a familiar and most reassuring voice made answer:"Is anybody there?
13840she cried,"how can you thus shame me?
13840she wailed,"what shall I do?
13840tell me, what is befalling?
13840what Reuben?
13840what is wrong?"
13840what said he?
13840what trouble?
13840what will be thy doom now?"
13840what?"
13840who talks of fear?
13840why did he not come?
13840why did you do me this ill?"
13840why does he cover us with shame like this?
31128Ah, Jack, lad, how be it with''ee?
31128All right, Jack; but what be''est thou going to do?
31128And after that?
31128And canst do any sum in thy head, Jack, as quick as that?
31128And do you like it?
31128And dost thou mean to get oop i''the world?
31128And thou really lik''st reading, Jack? 31128 And what did your united wisdom arrive at?"
31128And what is the exact degree of intimacy in which one may say as you denoted,''Miss Merton, your dress is a most becoming one?''
31128And what''s you and t''dogs been doing to- day, Jack?
31128And why do they call you Bull- dog, Jack?
31128And will they go for the strike, Jack?
31128And you did n''t doubt I''d do it, Jack?
31128And you have come to tell me now?
31128Anything wrong wi''dad?
31128Are you better now?
31128Are you hurt, John?
31128Are you?
31128Aye, they be sore surely; why did n''t''ee speak afore, Jack? 31128 Aye, what be''t?"
31128Be it?
31128Be''st afeard, Jack?
31128Bless my heart, Merton, why did you not tell me before? 31128 Bless the boy, what hast got in your head now?"
31128But bain''t''ee got larning?
31128But ca n''t you tell me what is the difference?
31128But how didst do that, Jack?
31128But if I doan''t?
31128But is there nothing that we can do?
31128But suppose they spiles''em?
31128But what be''est thou going to do, Jack?
31128But why do n''t you make up your mind to be something better still, Jack-- a manager?
31128But why not, mother?
31128But, Harry, you are as old as I am, and are earning the same wage; why do n''t you marry her?
31128Can it never be?
31128Can you advise anything?
31128Can you bite his tail?
31128Can you suggest nothing, Jack?
31128Coom,Jack shouted to the boys on the top,"what bee''st feared of?
31128Could you work out the cube- root of say 999,888,777?
31128Dang thee, how dare''st meddle here?
31128Did ye think as I was n''t to be trusted not to split on my own lad?
31128Do the waggons often get off the metals along this road, Evans?
31128Do you know his suggestions are exactly what I had intended to offer to you myself? 31128 Do you know how many thousand cubic feet of air a minute you pass?"
31128Do you like her better than me, Jack?
31128Do you want a dress suit, sir?
31128Do''st mean that, sir?
31128Doan''t,Jack said crossly;"what be there good in teaching a lass to spell?
31128Dost feel skeary, Jack?
31128Dost know what''s going to be done to- night Harry?
31128Dost think there''s any hope, Harry?
31128Eight shillings a week now, ai n''t it?
31128Foind it dark and lonesome, eh? 31128 Ha''ye got another strap?"
31128Harry, Harry,he shouted,"bee''st killed?"
31128Hast seen Brook?
31128Have you been doing this sort of work long?
31128Have you got either of the others?
31128Have you seen the gaffers?
31128Have you told Nelly?
31128He is killed?
31128He is really in earnest, Merton; it is not a mere freak?
31128Honour, you have n''t the least idea what it is?
31128How are they to earn bread if they flood the mines? 31128 How are you, Jack?
31128How are you, Jack? 31128 How could you do it then?"
31128How dar''ee hit my lad?
31128How dare''ee kick my dorg?

31128How do you know?
31128How much powder have you, Bill?
31128How often do the corves come along?
31128How often would it be held, sir?
31128How on earth did you do that?
31128How would you measure the velocity, theoretically?
31128How''s Annie?
31128I had better have them,he said;"it would look strange, I suppose, not to be dressed so when others are?"
31128I mean,the artist said with a smile,"have you anything to do?
31128I never gave up hope, did I, Harry?
31128I suppose it is Alice Merton?
31128I suppose that be a guess, Jack, eh?
31128I?
31128Is Harry in?
31128Is it fire, Jack?
31128Is t''dad like to be at home soon, Jack?
31128Is there anything else, Jack?
31128Is there no hope?
31128Is your father down, Harry? 31128 Just tell us frankly what you would do if you were manager of the Vaughan?"
31128Look at him, Bill; he''s something like Jack, do n''t thou see it?
31128Look here, John; Mr. Brook has been a good master, will you do him a good turn?
31128May I ask you a question or two?
31128More important, sir?
31128Mr. Brook,Jack said after a time,"it is agreed, is it not, that all here will obey my orders?"
31128No lass, I darena; but why should it be an insult? 31128 No,"Jack said consciously,"I know I dare not, though I should like to; but why do n''t I dare?"
31128Noa, why should I?
31128Noa,Jack said;"what be there to be skeary aboot?
31128Not Jack Simpson?
31128Not anything likely to interest me, Jack?
31128Now, mother,Jack said promptly, not heeding her appeal,"what police are there within reach?"
31128Oh yes, sir,Jack said, in a tone of delight;"and, please, sir, may I read when I am not wanted?"
31128Oh, Bill, how can I do it, and she ill, and with a two- month baby? 31128 Oh, Jack, and didst really think I wanted to welt thee?"
31128Oh, Mrs. Dodgson, you can not mean it?
31128Oh, Mrs. Dodgson,she sobbed,"how can I thank you enough?"
31128Only sewing and cutting out and cooking and such like, and not lessons?
31128Please, Mr. Merton, can I speak to''ee?
31128Put what?
31128She did?
31128Stuff and nonsense,Mrs. Dodgson said,"what has that to do with it?
31128That is the young un they call Bull- dog, ai n''t it, Bill?
31128Thee baint to be frighted by one man, be''est''ee? 31128 Then if she could take the thing which would be no manner o''use to her, why could n''t she take the thing that would?"

31128Thou art not down with them then, Harry?
31128Thou canst read and write foine, which is more nor I can do and what dost want more?
31128Very well,Jack said,"are you all agreed?"
31128Well, Jack, and now about this question of the soup dinner?
31128Well, lad, what are you doing?
31128Well, mother, and how goes it?
31128Well, mother, what is it?
31128Well, sir, and what do you think of things?

31128What brings he up at this hour?
31128What can have happened?
31128What can one lad do against two or three hundred men?

31128What news?
31128What o''clock is it now, sir?
31128What on earth can have happened? 31128 What should I do wi''out my work, Jack?
31128What should put such a thought in your head, lass? 31128 What steam is there in the boiler?"
31128What then, Jack?
31128What ud be t''good o''t?
31128What will you look forward to after that?
31128What would have been the use?
31128What would you advise?
31128What''s oop, lad?
31128Whatever they are?
31128Where be the girls to make the tidy wife a''cooming from, I wonder?
31128Who be he?
31128Who be you?
31128Who is alive? 31128 Who is this?
31128Who says so? 31128 Who should know it before you?"
31128Who would have dared do it but you? 31128 Who would have thought that just a little difference in the make of a coat would have made such an alteration in one''s look?"
31128Why did n''t you tell me? 31128 Why did you not write to me?"
31128Why dost like larning so much, Jack?
31128Why should she?
31128Why, Nell, what ha''done to t''yself? 31128 Why, Nelly, would n''t you have liked me to have helped you?"
31128Why, it bean''t nigh two o''clock, surely?
31128Why, lauk a''mercy, Jack, you ai n''t going to fight the whole place all by yourself, are you?
31128Why, man, I owe you my life,he said;"what are these little things in comparison?"
31128Why, you would rival Bidder himself,Mr. Hardinge said;"and how far have you worked up in figures?"
31128Will you two carry him to the cage? 31128 Wouldst like to learn?"
31128Yes, Bill; did n''t you feel it?
31128Yes, lad; and what then?
31128Yes, sir, thank you very much,Jack said, quietly;"only, please tell me, do you yourself recommend it?"
31128You do n''t mean to use powder, Jack?
31128You do n''t say anything,Jack remarked one day;"do you think my castles in the air will never come true?"
31128You mean the coal- waggons?
31128You''ve been to school, I suppose, Jack?
31128All that''s been agreed, ai n''t it?"
31128And do you really care for her, Harry?"
31128And how are things here?"
31128And how''s the dogs?
31128And so you never heard a whisper about the schoolmistress?
31128And when do you mean to ask her?"
31128And you are quite in earnest, Jack?"
31128At any rate you will always think of me as your true friend, Nelly, always trust me?"
31128Be''st thy first day doon the pit?"
31128Bill, will you bind yourself to produce Jack Simpson t''morrow?"
31128Brook?"
31128Brook?"
31128Brook?"
31128But be''est sure it be true, Sally?"
31128But what''ud be th''use of it?
31128Canst read, Nell?"
31128Canst walk now?"
31128Curious, is n''t it, Jack?"
31128Did n''t I know you were here an hour or two before, and you think I needed telling who it was as faced all the pitmen?
31128Did n''t you think I could be trusted?
31128Did you give Juno that physic ball I got for her?"
31128Did''st e''er hear tell o''such a thing?"
31128Did''st know o''t, Bill Haden?"
31128Do n''t I know you are as true as steel?
31128Do we mean to keep it to ourselves, or to let in other chaps?"
31128Does the bell act, I wonder?"
31128Fifty fathoms, three hundred feet; he was fifty below the mouth, two hundred and fifty to sink; how long would his body be getting to the bottom?
31128Hardinge?"
31128Hast felt it lonely, lad?"
31128Hast heard t''news, Bill?"
31128Have you got tea ready, mother?"
31128Have you heard that Miss Bolton is going to leave us?"
31128Have you never thought of marrying Nelly?"
31128Have''ee got a strap?"
31128How did you manage to breathe, dad?"
31128How have things gone on?"
31128I never was laughed at, and why should you be?
31128I wanted to ask''ee what books I orter read, so that I may grow up a clever man?"
31128IN THE OLD SHAFT-- CAN HE BE SAVED?
31128If they wreck the engines and flood the mines there will be no work for months; and what''s to become of the women and children then?
31128Is Williams''s office open?"
31128Is Williams, the underground manager, in the pit?"
31128It bain''t likely, be it?"
31128It can not be put down, I suppose?"
31128It seems joost the same sort o''thing, doan''t it, Jane?"
31128It would be only natural like friends, would n''t it?"
31128Jack exclaimed in astonishment;"how could that be, sir?"
31128Jack said astonished,"what makes you think that?
31128Let me think, you are nearly seventeen, Nelly?"
31128Merton?"
31128Merton?"
31128My wife is going to have the girls''school, have you heard?"
31128Nelly asked, as Jack was severely reproaching his friend with not having looked at a book for some days;"what good do it do?"
31128Nothing the matter at home, I hope?"
31128Now what is it?
31128Now,"he went on, as his friend rejoined him, and they turned up the street,"will you do a job for me?"
31128Of course you have been thinking what to do?"
31128Perhaps you would like to look at the plan of the pit before you go down?
31128That is so, bean''t it?"
31128That''s a creditable piece of work for a working collier, is it not?"
31128Then after a pause the girl asked suddenly,"How do you like Alice Merton, Jack?"
31128There is no chance of any of the ruffians pursuing them, do you think, Jack, when they find they have only us to deal with?"
31128There''s no one she cares for, why should n''t she take you?"
31128There, do n''t you see their lights down the heading?
31128This is Number Ten door, is it not?"
31128We''ll suppose you would n''t take it, but you would n''t be angered, would you?"
31128Well, Jack, have ee cum from meeting?"
31128Well, dad, how are you?"
31128Were n''t frighted at t''dark?"
31128Were you nearly pinning Mother Brice too?"
31128What are you going to do, Jack?"
31128What be wrong with''ee?"
31128What be you staring at, Jack?
31128What be''st thinkin''o''?"
31128What can have put the light out forty feet from the bottom of the shaft?
31128What did''ee hit I and Bess for?
31128What do you say, sir?"
31128What dost think o''t?"
31128What dost think o''that, right over heads o''us all?
31128What ever put such a ridiculous idea in your head?
31128What has a man got to do who ai n''t learnt to be fond o''reading?
31128What is she a doing now?"
31128What is the use of Davy- lamps?
31128What is your opinion?"
31128What on airth made her tak it into her head to go into t''water noo, I wonder?"
31128What on earth have you been doing to yourself?
31128What time have you to study?
31128What would his mother and Bill Haden say?
31128What would''ee say to I if Bess got had up afore the court for pinning t''parson''s coo?"
31128What''s that when the whole district depends upon it?
31128What''s your name?"
31128Where be ye, Nelly Hardy?
31128Who be''st thou?"
31128Who could know whether those dearest to them were not among the shapeless forms each day consigned to their last resting- place?
31128Who will go with me?
31128Who''d a thawt it?
31128Who''d take''ee to be a pitman?"
31128Why didst stop, lad?
31128Why should n''t she take it?
31128Will any one here who has food give it for them?"
31128Will you do that for me, sir?"
31128Would they ever try to get his body up?
31128You have gone into the Vaughan pit, have you not?"
31128You see this cord?
31128You work the same stall as Haden, do you not?"
31128You''ll be careful with it, lad, and not let it fall?"
31128You''ll join, woan''t you, Fred Wood?"
31128You''ve got some unions, have n''t you?"
31128Your dad gets his eight shillings from the union, I suppose?"
31128[ Illustration: IN THE OLD SHAFT-- WILL HE BE SAVED?]
31128a miner said coming angrily forward;"how dare''ee come here and hinder sport?"
31128a new hand, is he not?"
31128are you mad, Harry?
31128could n''t I have gone to fetch the redcoats for you?
31128could n''t I have sat by you in the engine- house, and waited and held your hand when you stood against them all?
31128five hundred Staffordshire miners afeard o''one?
31128he said, seeing a young man at work making a copy of a mining plan;"who are you?"
31128he said, shaking himself,"let me up, I be all right; how''s Harry?"
31128just tell me who says so?"
31128other lasses take presents from their lads, why should n''t Nell take one from her friend?
31128said a sleepy voice upstairs;"be''t thou, Harry and Sally?"
31128she cried;"do n''t go a foot further-- where be my Jack?"
31128that''s what thou be''est looking forward to, Jack, eh?
31128what is the use of all our care as to the ventilation, if at any moment the gas may be fired at a lamp opened for lighting a pipe?
31128what''s brought thee home before time?"
31128what''s that?"
31128what''s the difference?"
31128who is alive?"
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?"
38764And are you both going to help bring my friends down?
38764And have you been in battles?
38764And how did you get on, Dinah?
38764And how is the young lady?
38764And how many prisoners?
38764And now I suppose that you have had fighting enough, and are going to carry us quietly into port?
38764And now about your leave, shall I go off to the ship, think you?
38764And what are your casualties?
38764And what is the vessel that you have the honour to command, sir?
38764And what is your news, Dinah?
38764And you have escaped altogether, Monsieur Glover?
38764And you have only four?
38764And your officers, sir?
38764Are the mulattoes and negroes acting together?
38764Are we likely to be detained here long, sir?
38764Are you all loaded?
38764Are you going on in that direction now?
38764Are you going to light a fire, Dinah?
38764Are you going to take me on board, doctor?
38764Are you hurt?
38764Are you ill or wounded, Mr Glover?
38764Are you ready, lads? 38764 Are you the officer in command of that brigantine?"
38764But I shall be able to go away and join my ship before that, surely?
38764But do you feel sure that they have risen on all the other plantations?
38764But how can we live here?
38764But how did he manage it?
38764But is it quite true that you are going to try to get my father and mother and sister away from the negroes?
38764But is there any safe place, Dinah?
38764But surely you would have warning?
38764But what am I to carry, nurse, may I ask?
38764But why should they want to kill us?
38764But why should you leave us?
38764But you are not with them, Toussaint, surely?
38764But you have fine weather sometimes, surely?
38764Can we do nothing, sir?
38764Could they come up the other way, Dinah?
38764Did I understand, sir, that you are a commander?
38764Did he really kill giants?
38764Did they see you?
38764Did you have any casualties in taking the village?
38764Did you see any place at which the cliff could be climbed?
38764Did you send your messenger on?
38764Do n''t you think, doctor, that I can go to sea now? 38764 Do they allow smoking on board ship, Nat?"
38764Do you see how their flanks are extending? 38764 Do you speak French, monsieur?"
38764Do you think that they would join the blacks?
38764Do you think, Monsieur Laurent,Myra said, moving across to him,"that we are likely to meet any people on foot whom we could hire?"
38764Do you wish me to understand, sir,he said sternly,"that you are in command of that prize?"
38764Does she speak English?
38764Does your arm hurt you very much now?
38764Eight ob dem, and you kill dem all, sah?
38764Hab you been down de stream, Marse Glober?
38764Had we not better make straight for the town?
38764Had you not better stay with the young lady?
38764Have I been very bad, doctor?
38764Have the Frenchmen got their pikes? 38764 Have they made you a real captain, then?"
38764Have we not enough enemies now that we should quarrel among ourselves? 38764 Have you a letter for me?"
38764Have you any message to send to your friends? 38764 Have you not gone on board since?"
38764Have you slept well, Myra?
38764Have you slept well?
38764He is not in any danger, I hope?
38764How about the guns, sir? 38764 How about the merchantman''s papers, sir?"
38764How are you feeling, Myra?
38764How can you say that, monsieur,Valerie said indignantly,"when you have taken this pirate, which is ever so much stronger than you are?"
38764How did you get on through the hurricane, Monsieur Glover?
38764How did you get the hat?
38764How does it bear?
38764How far is Toussaint from here?
38764How far is it?
38764How is Madame Duchesne?
38764How long had you been in the woods?
38764How long is the_ Orpheus_ likely to stop here, doctor?
38764How long shall I have to keep these bandages on, doctor?
38764How many are there of you?
38764How many ob you up dar?
38764How many of these black scoundrels are there?
38764How much farther is this place?
38764How much farther, Dinah?
38764How shall we divide the things, Dinah?
38764How was it the dog came to bite her?
38764How your side, sah?
38764I beg your pardon, sir, but I am altogether ignorant of such matters-- should I come in uniform or plain clothes?
38764I do look funny, do I not?
38764I do n''t know whether you have in French a history of Jack the Giant Killer?
38764I suppose you will be taking me along with you?
38764If you go,she said firmly, sitting up as she spoke,"you must leave me two of your pistols-- they are double- barrelled, are they not?"
38764If you see him, sir, will you be kind enough to tell him that you have met us, and that he will find us at his house in town?
38764In your opinion, is anyone to blame for the course events took?
38764Is Miss Duchesne very dark?
38764Is that your voice, Dinah?
38764Is the writer of this the man who was the coachman of Monsieur Bayou, the agent of the Count de Noé?
38764Is there any story attached to it, Mr. Glover? 38764 Is your vessel a fast one?"
38764It is a bad bite, eh, doctor?
38764Look there, you see that black streak on the face of the cliff?
38764Mr. Playford, will you land a party of fifteen men on each side to clear the hills of those rascals? 38764 Not here, surely, monsieur?
38764Now, I suppose you will be running down to see your people at once?
38764Now, Mr. Glover, what can I do for you?
38764Now, what can I do? 38764 Of course the_ Orpheus_ has sailed, doctor?"
38764Of course you have taken the exact position of the island, for we must, if possible, take them by surprise?
38764Oh, you came to hand- to- hand work, did you?
38764Please, sir, if we are not wanted, can we have leave for the day?
38764Really, Nat?
38764Shall I give you a message in writing, or will you take it by word of mouth?
38764Shall we be able to see each other sometimes?
38764Shall we tow, sir?
38764So the pinnace was sunk?
38764So you think that they will fight in the morning?
38764So you think that we are going to have a storm, Dinah?
38764Then I suppose your discharge of grape did not do him very much harm?
38764Then how do you know the place, Dinah?
38764Then they have thought all along that there might be a rising here some day?
38764Then you are Captain Glover now? 38764 Then you do not remember me, Toussaint?"
38764Then you know this man?
38764Then you think, doctor,Lippincott said, with a laugh,"that you only had to enter the lists to cut Glover out?"
38764There is nothing very surprising that a young lady should fall in love with me, is there? 38764 Up there, Dinah?"
38764Was there anything in her hold?
38764We are not likely to meet anyone here, I hope, Dinah?
38764Well, Lieutenant Glover, what part did your ship bear in the fight with that Frenchman? 38764 Well, Mr. Playford, what is your news?"
38764Well, after that?
38764Well, do you think that the two craft will carry all the slaves?
38764Well, how long do you expect he will be?
38764Well, look above the first line of trees exactly over it: is n''t that a pole with a truck on the top of it?
38764Well, now, what are you going to do next, Nat?
38764Well, sah, do you tink you can take de head of de barrow? 38764 Well, the question is, how is your arm?"
38764Well,he said with a laugh,"am I at all like what you pictured me?"
38764What are you going to do next, Glover?
38764What can they be doing on board the flag- ship?
38764What do you intend to do, sir?
38764What do you mean?
38764What do you propose, then?
38764What do you think, Macfarlane? 38764 What force have you here, gentlemen?"
38764What good dat do dem, sah? 38764 What is comminuted, doctor?"
38764What is it, Tomkins?
38764What is she going through the water now, quarter- master?
38764What is the loss?
38764What is the matter, doctor?
38764What is the use of talking about that?
38764What is your news?
38764What is your wound?
38764What madame and Mam''selle Myra do widout Dinah? 38764 What name shall I say, sir?"
38764What name shall I say?
38764What news have you brought?
38764What nonsense are you talking, Biassou?
38764What on earth have you been doing to it? 38764 What shall I do?"
38764What should you call too big, sir?
38764What were the casualties of the Frenchmen?
38764What will that do, Dinah?
38764What would you have? 38764 What, Lucy, do you think because Myra was born in Hayti that she is a little negress with crinkley wool?"
38764When did I agree to such a thing?
38764When will you start?
38764Where did she hail from?
38764Where do you wish me to place my men?
38764Where have you posted your men?
38764Where would you light it?
38764Which is the house of Toussaint?
38764Which way are we going, Dinah?
38764Who are they, then?
38764Who are you?
38764Who can they be?
38764Who do you suppose is going to command the_ Spartane_?
38764Why do you say such things of yourself? 38764 Why should you do that?"
38764Why, what is the matter?
38764Will it be necessary to keep watch to- night, Nat?
38764Will she be sensible, Dinah?
38764Will you come alongside and pick us up?
38764Will you come in with me?
38764Wo n''t you come in, doctor?
38764Would it be safe to light the lantern?
38764Yeovil is a large place, is n''t it?
38764Yes; why do you ask?
38764You are quite sure?
38764You are sure that you are not mistaken?
38764You have brought in a great supply of berries, Dinah?
38764You have had something to eat, I hope?
38764You have no seriously wounded on board?
38764You have not given her too strong a dose I hope, Dinah?
38764You have not heard, I suppose, where our cruising ground is going to be this time?
38764You have not opened any of the storehouses yet?
38764You have seen nothing, I suppose, Tom?
38764You have, I hope, written a full report of the engagement?
38764You mean you hope that there will be a fight?
38764You wo n''t leave us at present?
38764Your division, Mr. Hill-- what are your casualties?
38764All well at the plantation, I hope?"
38764Am de ladies well?
38764And did he save yours?
38764And how is the arm going on?
38764And how is your daughter getting on?
38764And now, Dinah, what is the news from other parts of the island?"
38764And now, dearie, how is madame going on?"
38764Are there many negroes who know the secret of this place?"
38764Are they going to march away to the hills, or are they going to attack the town?"
38764Are those noises really the sound of guns?"
38764Are you going to remain here?"
38764Are you the Mr. Glover mentioned in the despatches?"
38764By the way, do you know any of the passengers on board the_ Thames_ personally?
38764By the way, do you know anything of the cargoes of the two ships you retook?"
38764Can it be that you are the officer who saved their daughter''s life, when she was attacked by a fierce hound?"
38764Can you not do something for them?"
38764Can you tell me where to find a hand- barrow?
38764Did everything go off quietly?"
38764Do you hear those shouts?"
38764Do you notice how silent the woods are now?
38764Do you think that the English government will accept our offer to transfer ourselves to British rule?"
38764Do you think there will be a war between France and England?"
38764Glover?"
38764Glover?"
38764Glover?"
38764Glover?"
38764Have n''t we been sailing about like gentlemen, with nothing to do but to drink and sleep, and look at the islands, and take things easy altogether?"
38764Have the ladies who were with you got safely down also?"
38764Have the three ladies gone on?"
38764Have you a written report?"
38764Have you any news from France, sir?"
38764Have your daughter and her children got away?"
38764He lay for sometime without speaking, and then whispered,"How is the girl?"
38764Hill?"
38764Hill?"
38764Hill?"
38764Hope you all well, sah?"
38764How about water?
38764How are you going to stow our passengers away?
38764How can I thank you for all that you have done?"
38764How does it look this morning?"
38764How does it stand, is it surrounded by trees?"
38764How is your arm, Glover?"
38764How long do you think it is likely to be before you are off?"
38764How long have you been in harbour here?"
38764How many axes are there?"
38764How many do you say there are?"
38764How many men do you carry?"
38764How many men have you lost?"
38764How many wounded have you here?"
38764I have made out her papers of freedom, but she says,''What use are these?
38764I hope now that there is no fear of my losing my arm?"
38764I must ask, however, are you empowered by the other leaders to make it?"
38764I say,''Dat so, but what de use ob land if no work?
38764I suppose by the way we are laying our course, Marston, we are going into Cape François?"
38764I suppose you are loaded with grape?"
38764I suppose you have ordered your boat to come to fetch you?"
38764I suppose you intend to keep the merchant seamen on board?
38764In one place de niggers march to attack town, and what you tink dey take for dere flag?
38764Is that your Christian name, Captain Glover?"
38764Is the wound bleeding?"
38764Is there anything else that I can do?"
38764Is there, Nat?"
38764Is your prize much injured?"
38764It is not tender above the shoulder, is it?"
38764Let me see, what do you say about it in your report?"
38764Lippincott?"
38764May I ask if this is your first action?"
38764May I ask where we are sailing now?"
38764May I ask yours?"
38764Monsieur Pickard, will you remain here with your party and help the sailors?
38764Nat sprang on to the rail, and in reply to the hail from the Frenchman,"What ship is that?"
38764Needham?"
38764Now I ask you fairly, what is there that you can do to compare with that?"
38764Now he has given us leave to come, and now we have come, what can we say to you?
38764Now, Dinah, what have you brought us?"
38764Now, I ask you calmly, is it worth it?"
38764Now, am I like what you thought I should be?"
38764Now, sir, do you think that if the English were to come here they would guarantee that slavery should never exist again in the island?"
38764Now, what is the bad news?"
38764Now, what is the first thing to be done, Dinah?"
38764Now, what is the state of things here?"
38764Playford?"
38764Playford?"
38764Playford?"
38764Playford?"
38764Pomp,"he went on to the cook,"have you got plenty of hot water?"
38764Shall I bring ten of the men on shore at once, sir?"
38764Should we be guaranteed our freedom and rights as men, or would it mean merely a change of masters?
38764So you black your face?"
38764So you will not change your mind and stay with us for the night?"
38764So your slaves fought well?"
38764Some of de women dey say,''What you do all day yesterday, Dinah?''
38764Such is the case, is it not?"
38764Suppose she like de oders, and stop down at de huts, what den?
38764The question is, how did she get there?"
38764The question is, how would it be possible to send such a note?"
38764The room is nice and cool, is n''t it?"
38764There are about that number of women and children, are there not?"
38764There is someone there now; do n''t you see a light smoke rising behind the bush?"
38764Wat am me to do wid dem?"
38764We are within a mile now, I should say?"
38764Well, Sam, what is it?"
38764Whar you hide dem?"
38764What damage have you suffered?"
38764What dey do when dey old, or when dey ill?
38764What do you think they contain?
38764What does it all mean, Nat?"
38764What does it amount to?"
38764What have you got on the fire?"
38764What is her tonnage?"
38764What is the width at the mouth?"
38764What is your name?"
38764What may not occur next?
38764What metal does the brigantine carry?"
38764What on earth are we to do with these poor creatures?"
38764What think you of that, Monsieur Glover?"
38764What time will you start, Dinah?"
38764What will become of them?"
38764What would be the condition of the coloured people here if they did so?
38764What you tink had best be done?
38764What you tink?"
38764What you want beside?"
38764Where dey get close?
38764Where do you propose that I shall go?"
38764Where is your main body?"
38764Where shall I meet you, Dinah?"
38764Where you go now, Marse Glober?
38764Where you go now, sah?"
38764Who look after dem?''
38764Whom are you waiting for?"
38764Whom had you with you?"
38764Why did you not propose that to aunt?"
38764Why do you ask, mademoiselle?"
38764Why should we be treated as cattle because we differ in colour from others?
38764Why, man alive, what have you been doing?"
38764Will you come with me also, Doyle?"
38764Will you take command, Mr. Lowcock?
38764You are not going to take these bandages off and put them on again, I hope?"
38764You do n''t get papers very regularly here, I think?"
38764You have another year to serve, have you not, Glover?"
38764You have brought steel and tinder, I hope, Dinah?"
38764You have got knives?"
38764You have not hurt it much, I hope?"
38764You have not hurt it, I hope?"
38764You know those two mulattoes?"
38764You no call it nasty, Marse Glober?"
38764You say she is half full of plunder?"
38764You say that the brigantine is fast?"
38764You see where dere are little steps made?"
38764You speak French fluently?"
38764You understand that?"
38764have you suffered much?"
38764his mother said in a tone of doubt;"do you actually mean that you have become engaged to a young lady who is now at Yeovil?"
38764the captain said, incredulously,"do you mean to say that, with that little ten- gun craft, you captured a thirty- six- gun frigate single- handed?"
38764what dey do when dey get old?
38764what you want run away for?
38764where dey get cloth for dress?
38764where dey get food?
38764where dey get meal and rice?
38764who gib de ole woman food?
38764who gib her close?
38764who gib her wine and medicine?
28887''Twas a big detective job, was n''t it, Bob?
28887A mere matter of curiosity to know how we were doing?
28887A million dollars-- let me see, Tom, how I can explain it so that you will comprehend its----"So I will what?
28887After that we are to become equal partners?
28887Ai n''t he helping me right along, I''d like to know?
28887And I ca n''t have but one?
28887And I suppose you expect to make your fortune in this city?
28887And are there so many applicants for every position?
28887And drugged him?
28887And he is the boy that the old banker told you about?
28887And it does n''t cost you anything?
28887And shall we do the town afterwards, as the bloods say?
28887And that''s the kind of a detective you want to be, is it?
28887And that''s what a reg''lar detective would do?
28887And that''s what you think a reg''lar detective would do?
28887And that''s what you''re goin''to do?
28887And the big supper, Bob?
28887And they prefer buying of you to going to the post office for their supply?
28887And they''re in the room now?
28887And this gives you an opportunity to work off your surplus stock?
28887And you are come to see my boy-- my poor Tom?
28887And you are willing to work hard?
28887And you came to no conclusion?
28887And you did all of this alone?
28887And you expect me to help you?
28887And you expect to buy from us at that rate?
28887And you got five dollars left, too?
28887And you heard this?
28887And you kept up the hunt all day?
28887And you liked the excitement?
28887And you think you could become a broker on that capital?
28887And you think, Bob Hunter, that we could go down there with only five dollars apiece and lay out them kings and scoop the boodle, do you? 28887 And you''ve been trying for three weeks to strike something?"
28887Are there? 28887 Are they sure of keeping it if they continue to speculate?"
28887Are you not Master Bob Hunter?
28887Are you ready to go, Bob?
28887Are you so very hungry?
28887Are you sure they have bit you?
28887Are you sure you will make it?
28887Bob, it''s awful, ai n''t it?
28887Bob,said he,"if you like bein''this kind of a detective, why do n''t you go in yourself, instead of sendin''me?
28887But I do n''t see just how we''re goin''to do it, do you?
28887But answer me this, Tom Flannery,said Bob, pointedly:"You admit you did get wiped out at bettin'', do you?"
28887But do n''t some of them make slats of money? 28887 But if you do n''t get it, how can I make you boys a present?
28887But now, what do you s''pose has become of him?
28887But now,said Bob,"what are we goin''to do with our money?
28887But should I succeed in this,he very prudently reasoned,"would I be any better off?
28887But they would get him so far away he could n''t get back to New York never, I suppose?
28887But what do you say to old Gunwagner?
28887But you do n''t expect him to get out, do you?
28887But you expected him, did n''t you, Bob?
28887But you hain''t got no encouragement yet?
28887But you must have found somebody''s pocket book----"What do you mean?
28887But you think it''s safe to bet on horse racin'', do n''t you, Tom Flannery?
28887Can I see the proprietor?
28887Can it be Vermont?
28887Can you tell me where old Gunwagner lives?
28887Can you tell, Bob?
28887Can you? 28887 Can you?"
28887Chandeliers, that''s it; but ai n''t they stunnin'', though?
28887Did n''t I tell you it wa''n''t no Jim Fisk or Boss Tweed ranch?
28887Did n''t I? 28887 Did n''t find no benevolent old gentleman-- them as is always looking for poor boys to help along and give''em money and a bang up time?"
28887Did n''t strike it rich today, did you?
28887Did n''t they tumble to anything crooked at the bank?
28887Did they make their money by speculating?
28887Do n''t brokers never lose nothin'', Herbert?
28887Do n''t take it so hard,said Bob;"you do the square thing, and we wo n''t blow on you-- will we, Tom?"
28887Do n''t you know me, Tom?
28887Do n''t you?
28887Do n''t you?
28887Do them fellers always dress up so with a swallow tail on, Bob?
28887Do you expect sympathy from me, after your heartless treatment?
28887Do you know that a boy''s chance to get rich hardly ever comes to him but once in his life?
28887Do you know these young men?
28887Do you know why he is stayin''away?
28887Do you mean it, Bob?
28887Do you mean to tell me, Bob Hunter, that anybody uses these words?
28887Do you mean you will give us both a shine for five cents?
28887Do you s''pose we will find that Mortimer feller at the bank?
28887Do you think I could, Bob?
28887Do you think he has any property?
28887Do you think he will bring a revolver with him?
28887Do you think, Tom Flannery, that a detective is goin''to tell all he knows-- is goin''to give away the game before it''s played?
28887Do you write a good hand? 28887 Felix Mortimer?"
28887For what firm did you work?
28887Good? 28887 Got it with you?"
28887Has n''t Littlewood been in for any?
28887Have you any evidence to sustain your position?
28887Have you any way of proving your statement?
28887Have you been in all of them?
28887Have you come to tell us what has become of young Randolph?
28887Have you ever been in one of these Bowery museums?
28887Have you ever worked in any business house?
28887Have you had a doctor to see him?
28887Have you looked since the gas was lighted?
28887He ai n''t goin''to make it all up this morning, is he, Bob?
28887Here they are:_ Fillet piquà ©._"_ Fricandeau de Veau._"_ Pâtà © s aux huitres._""Ca n''t a fellow get more''n one go at''em, Bob?"
28887How about the Wall Street racket?
28887How came you to overhear this conversation between the old fence and this fellow?
28887How can you do that?
28887How can you manage to joke so seriously, and why do you make fun of me? 28887 How did he do it, Bob?"
28887How did you find out where I was, and how in the world did you manage to get in here without being seen?
28887How do you do it?
28887How in the world came you here, and what are you doing?
28887How is that?
28887How much capital have you?
28887How much did you put up for''em, Bob?
28887How much sleep has he got to make up, Bob?
28887How much?
28887How so?
28887How would you like to climb down, Mort, and shine shoes for a living?
28887I do n''t like that duffer-- what d''ye call him?
28887I guess that''s right, Herbert, a hundred dollars; but I never see so much money all at one time, did you, Bob?
28887I know there is, Bob, but how are fellers like you''n''me going to get it?
28887I never see so much style slung round before, did you, Herbert?
28887I s''pose you hain''t made no plans for a place to sleep yet?
28887I suppose every American wants to be rich, and I guess we are no exception, are we, Bob?
28887I think so, too, Bob; but why do you think so?
28887I thought they always told them as was in the secret, do n''t they?
28887I wish so, too; but you do n''t s''pose we can do it by standing here, do you?
28887I wonder what Tom Flannery would do if he was in my place?
28887I would n''t like to be a prisoner in there; would you, Bob?
28887In cash?
28887In what part of the city?
28887Is anything else missing?
28887Is he here?
28887Is that the way they do it, Bob?
28887Is that you, Bob Hunter?
28887Is that you, Vermont?
28887It''ll be too big for one detective then, I s''pose?
28887It''ll beat jumpin''off the Brooklyn Bridge, wo n''t it?
28887It''s pretty tough, ai n''t it, Herbert?
28887Jest get on to that piece, will you?
28887Mean-- why what could I mean? 28887 Mr. Mortimer, will you please show me what you can do with the pen?"
28887Mr. Randolph,continued the banker,"will you kindly help me take these parcels out to my carriage?"
28887No, but I do n''t know nothin''to do; do you, Bob?
28887No, of course not; but what are the chances for carrying out the scheme?
28887No, you hain''t, Bob, not so quick as this?
28887Not if you could each make ten thousand a year, clean money?
28887Now, what do you think of it?
28887Of course it does, Bob, fer you see we would n''t have but one go at the game with only five dollars; would we, Herbert?
28887Of course, you do n''t s''pose we would be very safe with him here, do you?
28887Oh, papa, who did this beautiful writing for you?
28887Oh, what is it, Mrs. Flannery? 28887 Oh, yes, you told me about that, Bob, but that ai n''t much--''tain''t like doin''the detective business, is it?"
28887Say, Bob, where did you get''em?
28887Say, Bob, will there be any fightin''?
28887Say, Herbert, how much is a million dollars? 28887 Send me in?"
28887Shine? 28887 So that was what gave you the swollen jaw, was it?"
28887So that was your scheme in getting in here, was it? 28887 So this is Gunwagner''s, is it?"
28887So you came from Vermont, right from the farm?
28887So you did, Bob; but you see I did n''t know about them big glass-- what do you call''em?
28887So you have made up your mind to take me with you?
28887So you want to get him out of the way, eh?
28887So you''re goin''to foller him? 28887 Suppose the police should drop on us, and find Randolph in the cellar?"
28887That''s all, only one go, Tom; which will you have?
28887That''s so, Bob, but why could n''t they send him off somewhere so he could n''t blow on''em?
28887The large trunk manufacturers up Broadway?
28887The papers contained nothing about the arrest, did they?
28887The_ fillet piquà ©_?
28887The_ suprême_?
28887Them Eyetalians are some good after all, ai n''t they?
28887Them names do n''t go all the way through, do they, Bob?
28887Then why not do that?
28887There ai n''t no way to escape, is there?
28887They are slick, though, ai n''t they, Bob?
28887They did n''t, did they? 28887 They wo n''t do worse nor keep him a prisoner, will they, Bob?"
28887They would n''t give in to the strikers, I believe?
28887This is a gosh fired hard one, ai n''t it, Bob?
28887Tom, you''d look great tryin''to be a gentleman, would n''t you? 28887 Vermonter?"
28887Very true,said Herbert;"but did you ever hear of the thousands that went down there and came away without a cent?"
28887Was he a friend of yours?
28887We certainly shall not object to that,said Herbert;"but how can we become members of the firm if not legal partners?"
28887We must, must we?
28887Well, Bob, have you struck anything?
28887Well, I ca n''t help it; I think it''s time to eat, do n''t you, Herbert?
28887Well, I never thought of that, Bob, but it''s so, ai n''t it?
28887Well, I said what I said, Tom, and if it fits you, why then am I to blame?
28887Well, I should think it stuck to Jay Gould, did n''t it?
28887Well, ef I do, that''s all right, ai n''t it? 28887 Well, ef you do n''t know nothin''about spekerlatin'', how are you goin''to use any judgment?
28887Well, how would he do it?
28887Well, suppose it does look so, why could n''t you enjoy the money just as much?
28887Well, that''s so, Tom, I know they loses sometimes, but do n''t lots of''em make money? 28887 Well, then, what are you goin''to do?"
28887Well, they are all on there for us, ai n''t they?
28887Well, what did you think about it?
28887Well, why would n''t I know''bout''em, Tom? 28887 Well, you know the boy I told you about, what''s chummin''with me?"
28887Well, you s''pose I bro''t you up here to do somethin'', do n''t you?
28887Well,said Mr. Goldwin, after a pause,"is it too late to get you?"
28887What are them things, Bob?
28887What are you talkin''that way for? 28887 What becomes of it all?"
28887What can he wish to talk over with us?
28887What did you go into it for, then?
28887What do we do anything for? 28887 What do you imagine is the trouble?"
28887What do you mean by that, Bob? 28887 What do you mean by this insinuation, young man?"
28887What do you mean, sir, by appearing in this bank again?
28887What do you mean? 28887 What do you mean?
28887What do you mean?
28887What do you mean?
28887What do you s''pose his motive is?
28887What do you s''pose they''ve done with your chum?
28887What do you say, Tom?
28887What do you want here?
28887What do you want me to do?
28887What do you want me to do?
28887What do you want now?
28887What do you want to do that for, Tom Flannery?
28887What do you want to know about him?
28887What does that mean?
28887What does''doing the town''mean?
28887What has become of that new boy?
28887What has become of the boy broker? 28887 What have I done that I should be shut up here by you?"
28887What is it, Bob?
28887What is it, Bob?
28887What is it, then, Bob?
28887What is this for?
28887What is your age?
28887What is your education?
28887What is your name?
28887What is your name?
28887What made you think that, Tom?
28887What makes you think so?
28887What say you, papa?
28887What shall we do?
28887What sort of a boy is he-- sharp, like yourself, I suppose?
28887What was that?
28887What would she have done, poor woman, but for your kindness?
28887What you goin''to do with it, Bob?
28887What you goin''to do, Bob?
28887What''s all this row about?
28887What''s he call himself a broker for, then?
28887What''s hit you this mornin'', Bob?
28887What''s that, Bob?
28887What''s the first move?
28887When did you see him last?
28887When shall we start, Bob?
28887When will Herbert be here?
28887When will he be down?
28887Where did you get on to them blamed names, Bob? 28887 Where do you imagine it is?"
28887Where?
28887Which you goin''to have, Bob?
28887Who could I get to learn me?
28887Who?
28887Why are you treating me in this inhuman way?
28887Why did n''t you bring them in with you?
28887Why did n''t you remain with them?
28887Why did you think that?
28887Why do n''t you bring me something, as you ought to?
28887Why do you ask that?
28887Why do you prefer that?
28887Why not have''em all, Bob?
28887Why would they have to do that?
28887Why, Bob, they would n''t kill him, would they?
28887Why, Bob,said he,"what makes you look so wretched?
28887Why, do n''t you remember that Wormley& Jollup had a big strike in their factory?
28887Why, is n''t he here?
28887Why, of course you could, Tom; ai n''t I doin''it?
28887Why, was yours good, Tom?
28887Why, you''ve got it now; you''re on it with me, hain''t you? 28887 Will you please tell us the facts?"
28887Would n''t it be splendid if you could get damages from that dreadful old man?
28887Would you like to be rich?
28887Yes, and do you think you would er showed me any sympathy, if you''d got me into your clutches alone?
28887Yes, that''s what I said, was n''t it?
28887Yes, the one I saw you with last night, I s''pose?
28887Yes, you think you''ve made a fool of me, do n''t you, Bob Hunter? 28887 You and he roomed together?"
28887You can do what I tell you to, ca n''t you?
28887You did n''t wait for me, did you?
28887You do n''t know what well fixed means? 28887 You do n''t know where he is, then?"
28887You here, Bob?
28887You kinder want to bulldoze me, do n''t you, Bob Hunter? 28887 You know all about it, I suppose?"
28887You mean put it into the hands of your lawyer?
28887You refer to speculating, I suppose?
28887You remarked that it was lucky that you found out something before it was too late for us here at the bank, I believe?
28887You say he, too, is locked up now?
28887You wo n''t lick him, will you?
28887You wo n''t want it, will you, mother?
28887Young man,continued the banker, addressing Bob, and without waiting for Mortimer to reply,"what do you know about this matter?"
28887Your old business?
28887A million dollars; and you say some er them kings loses so much money as all this in almost no time?"
28887After a moment''s pause, however, he said,"May n''t I give some of this to Tom Flannery?"
28887And why could not he fill them-- any one of them?
28887And why should he show his evident hatred toward our hero?
28887And, again, how could he have fought away despondency during his enforced idleness had he lived by himself in a cold and cheerless room?
28887Are you ambitious to work your way up in a solid, reliable business?"
28887But I s''pose you''re hungry, hain''t you?
28887But I suppose you got a recommendation from Wormley& Jollup?"
28887But how''s a feller like me goin''to make any money, Bob, if he do n''t bet any?"
28887But now to be honest, and not fool no more, did n''t you get no show today?"
28887But say, Bob, do n''t you think''twas kinder lucky for Herbert when he fell in with you?"
28887But say, Bob, what''s gone bad?
28887But were they actually so?
28887But what are your business hours?"
28887But what could this be but Bob Hunter''s spirit?
28887But what is it?
28887But what is to be done with him?
28887But what shall be done with him?"
28887But what will you do, Vermont, if he is?"
28887But, say, Bob,"continued Tom, earnestly,"what do you propose to do about it?
28887But-- what''s that noise?"
28887Ca n''t you never let''em alone,''specially at a tony dinner like this is?"
28887Dare you come in and face him with these remarks?"
28887Detectives''names are always printed, hain''t they?
28887Did he have any grip or anything?"
28887Did he then waste his time in what would seem wild imagination, when a more practically minded boy would have been applying for work?
28887Did n''t I ask you to eat breakfast with me and him?"
28887Did n''t I tell you he would be right down?"
28887Did n''t I tell you how he teaches me every night?"
28887Did n''t I work in one of these places for a good while, and did n''t I pay some attention to the way things was done?"
28887Do I look like a fellow that''s mad?"
28887Do n''t you never want to know anything?"
28887Do n''t you see how it''s done?
28887Do you know anything about him?"
28887Do you know anything to the contrary?"
28887Do you live in New York?"
28887Do you mean at selling them?"
28887Do you see now?"
28887Do you see?"
28887Do you, Bob?"
28887Funny, ai n''t it, we ca n''t do nothin''without eatin''?
28887Goldwin''s, hey?"
28887Had they received poisonous bites, he asked himself?
28887He is a bully old fellow, ai n''t he, Bob?"
28887He probably knows you are a stranger in the city, and----""Do you think there is any danger?"
28887How could my clerks announce you so I''d know you, if I do n''t know your name?
28887How do you figure it?"
28887How does any of''em make it?"
28887How does anybody get new clothes?"
28887Hunter?"
28887I believe you room together?"
28887I did n''t think, Mort, that that young countryman could hit such a clip, did you?"
28887I s''pose?"
28887I would have tried my best to please you, and----""What is it?"
28887I''ve got a chance to get into a bank----""Into a bank?"
28887Is it possible that he dare not attack him, and that he is afraid to continue the bullying further?
28887Is that it?"
28887Is that what you call it, when a detective takes a bird like you in?"
28887It''ll be exciting, wo n''t it?"
28887None of the detectives does it, and why should I?
28887Now what do you say?"
28887Now which will you do?"
28887Now you have heard my proposition,"continued Mr. Goldwin,"how do you like it?"
28887Now, answer me that, will you?"
28887Now, does that satisfy you, Bob?"
28887Now, suppose you had altogether twenty bills just like this one, you would have how much money?"
28887Perhaps you remember I was down here yesterday to see you, and I told you somethin''was wrong then-- didn''t I?"
28887Presently, however, he rallied, and said:"Do you think one has his liberty, as you call it, when he is poor-- so poor that he can have no luxuries?"
28887Randolph?"
28887Randolph?"
28887Randolph?"
28887Send him back to Vermont?"
28887Shall I send for him?"
28887Suppose I were to give you a situation, how could you live on three dollars a week?
28887That heavy trap door is undoubtedly fastened down, and, so far as I know, that is the only means of exit; but---- What is that?"
28887Then, too, might he not lend a degree of intelligence, of thought to the business that would be helpful?
28887To whom else should I go?"
28887Was it excitin''?"
28887Was n''t I speaking good English, I''d like to know?"
28887Was n''t it plain what I said?
28887Well, tell me if Jay Gould, and the old man Sage, and half a dozen more of them big fellers, did n''t go into Wall Street without a cent?"
28887Well, where is it?"
28887What do you say?"
28887What do you think?"
28887What has happened to Tom?"
28887What has happened?"
28887What has he done for you?"
28887What have you to say to this?"
28887What is your age?"
28887What made you think that?
28887What might not come of a false venture?
28887What might not grow out of his start in life-- the start of a thoughtful, industrious, original man?
28887What schemes of revenge might not then be planned by this boy whose hatred for Herbert Randolph now undoubtedly burned more fiercely than ever?
28887What should he do next?
28887What would have become of him while in the hands of old Gunwagner, but for Bob''s effort to rescue him?
28887What would they do if they only knew where I am?"
28887What you goin''to do with yourn?"
28887What''s done it?"
28887When can you commence?"
28887When would you like the stamps?"
28887Where should he spend the night?
28887Which soup will you have?"
28887Which will you have, Herbert?"
28887Which will you have, sir?"
28887Who else could want to get Herbert out of the way?
28887Who is he?"
28887Why had he so suddenly stopped his derisive remarks?
28887Why it means-- it means that you''re solid, that you''ve got the stuff, do n''t you see?"
28887Why not?"
28887Why not?"
28887Why should I not refuse your offer as you refused mine?"
28887Why should n''t I be a hard worker, a thinker, an originator and a pusher?
28887Why would n''t I do the same as any other detective?
28887Will our names really be printed, Bob?"
28887Yes, I would like that, for we always had such good times together, did n''t we, Bob?"
28887Yes, you will do so, wo n''t you, Bob?"
28887Yet he did not think of this, or at least he did not give it any serious consideration, for were there not a vast number of positions to be filled?
28887You do n''t expect me to rob a bank in one day, do you?"
28887You hain''t goin''to knock him out, are you, Bob?"
28887You have nothing to do, I suppose?"
28887You know a lot, do n''t you, Tom Flannery?"
28887You mean_ out_, do n''t you-- out here?"
28887You refer to Herbert Randolph, I presume?"
28887You see, you know about the business here now, and if you should give it away to the police, why it would hurt it, do n''t you understand?"
28887You will keep it, wo n''t you, to remember me by?
28887You would n''t give''em away, would you?"
28887You yield at last, puzzled though I know you are, and the question you would put to me--"How came it so, this marvelous change in these two boys?"
28887not in favor of spekerlatin''?"
28887said the young detective to himself;"bank robbing, is it?
28887shine, boss?"
28887that''s climbin''up, ai n''t it, Bob?"
15958''Mad is he?'' 15958 A quel regiment?"
15958A white man? 15958 And have you other news besides?"
15958And how come you to this wild spot in the heart of these forests, and with warfare all around?
15958And in yours, too?
15958And our own vessels,asked the Abbe--"what of them?
15958And then?
15958And then?
15958And what matters the end if we do our duty to the last?
15958And what said he?
15958And what said your wife and daughter to such a move?
15958And what says he?
15958And will you remain within the walls of Quebec yourself, my dear Marquis? 15958 And you are hopeful that he will?"
15958And you had no escort?
15958Are the two gentlemen here?
15958Are they not brave, these English?
15958Are you Rogers''men?
15958Are you men? 15958 Are you not glad, mother mine?"
15958Are you the great Rogers himself?
15958Are you then French?
15958Are you then going back to England?
15958But did not the General strive to rally them?
15958But tell me, does he leave behind many to mourn him? 15958 But tell us, fair lady, how comes it that you are here alone in the forest?
15958But what is our General doing?
15958But why speak you so, as though you would see them no more? 15958 But you will not get killed?"
15958But your life was spared?
15958Can you do nothing?
15958Can you remember the holy man?
15958Can you tell me aught of the Rangers?
15958Captain Dautray, can you help us in this matter? 15958 Captain Jacobs?"
15958Colin, do you hear-- do you understand? 15958 Colin, my boy, is that thou?
15958Do they think French soldiers are the only ones who can fight?
15958Do you grenadiers suppose that you can beat the French single- handed?
15958Do you know how many were slain?
15958Do you remember what you told us when we met in the forest long ago?
15958Do you think the tide has turned against the French arms?
15958For the moment-- yes,answered Fritz;"but what of afterwards?"
15958From Indians? 15958 From the land of the far south-- from the rolling plains of the giant Mississippi, that vast river of which perchance you have heard?"
15958Had he ever been there before?
15958Has Mr. Pitt named me as likely for this service?
15958Have I not told you before? 15958 Have they the power to do so?"
15958Have we not yet had enough of procrastination?
15958Have you been wounded, sir?
15958Have you not heard of Robert Rogers, the New Hampshire Ranger? 15958 Have you seen the abattis?"
15958He knows, then?
15958How came they to be taken?
15958How goes the battle? 15958 How many ships have they in the harbour?"
15958How will it end? 15958 Humphrey, is that you?"
15958I am not wrong, am I, sirs? 15958 I look like a man to perform the impossible, do n''t I, good Stark?"
15958If so, how come you to speak mine own tongue as you do?
15958In spite of my cropped red head and lanky limbs? 15958 Is Canada weak then?"
15958Is he then wounded?
15958Is it dangerous?
15958Is it indeed you? 15958 Is it so in very truth?
15958Is not that so, Kate?
15958Is that poor fellow mad?
15958Is that so?
15958Is the General yet living?
15958It may be so, it may be so; yet who can tell? 15958 Kate, do you love me?"
15958My blunder?
15958Nay, why think that?
15958No; what story?
15958O Colin, Colin, when did you come, and whence?
15958O Colin, what have you seen?
15958O Fritz, Fritz, do n''t you understand yet what a woman''s love is like? 15958 O mother, what can it be?
15958Of course we will take you, Mademoiselle Corinne,cried Paul, with boyish gallantry;"why should you not see as well as we?
15958Old Killick roared out after a bit,''Has that confounded French pilot done bragging yet?'' 15958 Pleased that your country should do you this great honour?
15958Qui vive?
15958Resolute men have done wonders before now in such a charge, and why not we tomorrow?
15958So soon?
15958Spoke Sir Charles such words of me?
15958Susanna, will you be brave enough for this? 15958 The English have always been masters of the sea; have they not won themselves the name of''sea dogs''and''sea rovers''even from their enemies?
15958The fortress is ready to capitulate?
15958Then he thinks the cause is lost?
15958Then is General Amherst on his way here with his army?
15958Then the fight is not yet over?
15958Then were your forefathers French subjects?
15958They were,said the lady, with a sigh;"and yet can we wonder so greatly?
15958They will furnish money now; but what can be done with the winter just upon us? 15958 Was he one of the attacking party that desolated your homestead?"
15958Was that long ago?
15958We have done what men can do,said Captain Pringle to his friends Fritz and Roche;"but where are we now?
15958We have no enemies; why should we fear?
15958We have; but where is the General to lead us? 15958 What are our guns doing that they do not open fire and dislodge them?"
15958What do they think soldiers are for, if not to do their duty in the teeth of danger and difficulty? 15958 What do you expect me to say to that?
15958What else can I think? 15958 What happened?"
15958What have you heard, Charles, and where?
15958What is all the stir about, mother?
15958What is it they are saying all around?
15958What is it?
15958What is it?
15958What is the General doing over yonder? 15958 What is the matter?"
15958What said the Governor?
15958What say you? 15958 What think you, Corinne?
15958What think you, my young friends? 15958 What words?"
15958What would those raw lads from New Jersey do if suddenly confronted by a crew of yelling Indians? 15958 What, then, is to be done?"
15958When left you London? 15958 When was it, Charles?
15958Where am I-- what is it?
15958Where are Mrs. Ashley and Susanna to be found?
15958Where are we?
15958Where could any army hope to land along this northern shore? 15958 Where is the Governor?
15958Where is the Governor?
15958Where is the Marquis of Montcalm? 15958 Which is the house of Captain Jacobs?"
15958Who speaks of Quebec?
15958Who was it that spoke to me?
15958Who will go up to battle against this proud foe?
15958Why must men stand up to kill and be killed? 15958 Why must these things be?"
15958Why not divide our forces?
15958Why not, indeed?
15958Why not, indeed?
15958Why was I not here to fight and to die?
15958Will England never learn the lesson which her reverses should have taught her? 15958 Will not the town batteries sink them like logs as they pass?"
15958Will they accept?
15958Would you care so much, so much, were I to find a soldier''s grave?
15958Yes,said the Abbe--"that sounds a wise and wary policy; but will the Canadian militia be patient and obedient during the long period of inaction?
15958You are Captain Rogers?
15958You are better, Monsieur?
15958You are from Captain Rogers?
15958You are not wounded yourself?
15958You are not wounded, Humphrey?
15958You are pleased with all this, my Kate?
15958You have heard them speak of the Traverse, and what a difficult place it is to navigate?
15958You have not heard the strange story, then?
15958You have seen Julian Dautray, my friend and comrade who sailed away to England several years since on an embassy from the town of Philadelphia? 15958 You have seen him, then?"
15958You know Quebec, Madame?
15958You remember that day in the forest, Corinne, and how we were protected by English Rangers from hurt?
15958You remember the big, tall Ranger, whose name was Fritz?
15958You saw all that?
15958You think it can not be done, my friends? 15958 You think that?"
15958You think, then, that no British ship can pass the guns of the town?
15958You will come back, Julian? 15958 You will not run into peril yourself, my brother?"
15958You wo n''t surrender, eh?
15958You would not have us value our lives above the safety of our distressed brethren or the honour of our nation? 15958 ), you will not come back alone?
15958After a brief pause he recommenced in more rapid tones:"Why prolong the tale?
15958After all, if Quebec were to fall to such gallant foes, would she suffer much after the first shock was over?
15958Again there was silence, which Mrs. Schuyler broke by asking gently:"And your father thinks that there is some doom connected with that name?"
15958Ah, why can we not live at peace and concord with our brothers?
15958Am I not as much English as French?
15958And did he make no mistake?
15958And does not Wolfe say that, when once we get a footing on the shore, we will not leave till Louisbourg is ours?"
15958And had he not risked his life more than once that night to save those left on board the vessels?
15958And have they not reason to fear-- they who have done so ignobly?"
15958And how came that about?
15958And if England''s flag should one day wave over the fortress of Quebec, as it now does over that of Louisbourg, what is that to me?
15958And if so, why should not I be one to take up my abode?"
15958And if there, why not over Quebec itself?"
15958And is it yet known there whether this rumour of fresh disaster is true?
15958And now that the fulfilment seems so near, shall we not feel grateful to those who held out the torch of hope when all was darkness?"
15958And what did the pilot say?"
15958And why should they not?
15958And yet what think you of this?
15958And yet with all this, how are you to get into Quebec?
15958And, Julian( am I wrong in thinking it?
15958Another pause, another murmur like a roar, and a voice from the crowd was raised to ask:"And what says the Assembly to that?"
15958Are they baiting the Governor again?
15958Are they having another fight about the taxes?"
15958Are they here, and unhurt of the Indians?"
15958Are they not like fiery dragons spouting out sheets of fire?
15958Are they not like live things?
15958Are we not here to take vengeance upon those who have been treacherous foes, and shamed the Christian profession that they make?
15958Are we not strong and full of courage, seasoned to hardship, expert in our way with gun or axe?
15958Are we to let our province become overrun and despoiled by hordes of savage Indians, or are we to rise like men and sweep them back whence they came?
15958Are you blind with the smoke, my friend?
15958Besides, how can we trust an army which has basely deserted us once?
15958Besides, why should he be suspected?
15958But I can not look for an answer for long; and meantime are all our helpless settlers in the west to be butchered?
15958But how was it going with the others?
15958But how will you be able to undergo all that fatigue, and the perils and sufferings of another voyage?
15958But in these troublous times who can tell whether the messenger ever reached his destination?"
15958But the Marquis-- how goes it with him?"
15958But was the fire directed only at the opposite heights?
15958But what avail against scores of such foes?
15958But what can we do to save it, threatened as we are now by the English fleet in the great St. Lawrence itself?"
15958But what can we do?
15958But what matter if they do?
15958But what was the meaning of that crowd of boats all making for the city as fast as oars and sails could bring them?
15958But where are the prisoners?"
15958But why hark back to the past?
15958But would the gunners in Quebec see them?
15958But, Corinne, are you weeping because the English are about to take Quebec?
15958Can it be true that the French permitted such abominations?
15958Can nothing be done to stop that?
15958Can we ask a nobler death?
15958Can you give us shelter by your hearth tonight?
15958Can you help us?''
15958Can you make up your mind to be a soldier''s wife, even before the war has closed?
15958Can you secure for us a passage in one of your many noble ships so soon to return?
15958Colin, art thou sure?"
15958Corinne listened to all this with a beating heart, and asked of her aunt:"What think you that they will first do-- the English, I mean?"
15958Do not our wounded as well as your own bless the sight of your face and the sound of your voice amongst them?"
15958Do you think He desires to see a repetition of such scenes as that?"
15958Do you think Miss Lowther will ever love again?
15958Do you think something can have happened again?"
15958Does anybody know how they scalp their prisoners?
15958Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, life for life-- is not that written in the Scriptures?
15958Governor or General-- Vaudreuil or Montcalm?
15958Had not Louisbourg said the same, and yet had fallen before English hardihood and resolution?
15958Had the English got their artillery up to those inaccessible heights?
15958Had there been another massacre, such as had disgraced the struggle at Fort William Henry?
15958Had they been discovered, and were the Indians coming out in a body against them?
15958Had they not all prayed together, after the godly habit of the household, upon the very morning when this awful disaster fell upon them?
15958Had you escaped the perils of the war?
15958Had you not heard?
15958Has he a wife in England?"
15958Has he parents living, or sisters and brothers, or one nearer and dearer still?
15958Has human blood been spilt?"
15958Has not Fort Duquesne been abandoned before the advancing foe?
15958Has not Fort Frontenac fallen?
15958Has not that been proved a thousand times on European soil?
15958Have I not English-- or Scotch-- blood in my veins?
15958Have fresh tidings been received?
15958Have they really left us in possession of the battery?
15958Have we not deserved it?
15958Have we not twice the force of the English?
15958Have you lost aught beside?
15958Have you seen fighting, friends?
15958He knew that these brave men could fight like tigers; but to what avail, he thought, were so many gallant soldiers to be sent to their death?
15958His voice, his words, his phraseology seemed in some sort strange, and he asked him wonderingly:"From whence are you, friends?"
15958How came you here?
15958How have things been going in the town since I was laid by the heels?"
15958How long was it to continue?
15958How long will it be before the reign of the Prince of Peace, when all these things shall be done away?"
15958How will they like the long imprisonment in the camp, without being brought face to face with the foe?
15958I may sit with you at the supper table, may I not, mother?"
15958If I might make bold to ask you of yourself, how comes it that an English girl is in such a wild spot as this, and amid the soldiers of France?"
15958If an enemy could do this in a single night, what might they not have the power of achieving?
15958If this was the spirit which animated the English fleet, what might not be the next move?
15958Is he still in this new world beyond the dividing sea?"
15958Is he well?
15958Is it not like some wild diabolic carnival?
15958Is it true that Fort William Henry has fallen?"
15958Is little Susanna actually here in Quebec?"
15958Is that you I see?
15958It would be the greater glory to vanquish it single- handed; and had they not Wolfe to lead them?
15958Julian looked at the gaunt, prostrate form of the soldier, and said gravely:"But you are surely in no fit state for military service?"
15958Men have banded themselves together for this work before now; why may not we do the like?"
15958Next moment the challenge rang out:"Qui vive?"
15958Or will she go mourning all the days of her life for him whom she has lost?"
15958Our Marquis is a brave soldier and an able General; but what can one man do?
15958Saw you ever such soldiers as these?"
15958Say, Susanna, what sort of a welcome will you have for me, when I come to claim it after my duty is done?"
15958Shall not deeds like these bring about a stern retaliation?
15958Shall we pity or spare when we remember what they have done?
15958She has claimed half the world as her own; will she lose all for the sake of some petty quarrel with her neighbours?"
15958Six months to wait?
15958So you have been within the walls of the town, and have returned safe and sound?
15958Suppose you had been found out?"
15958Surely the French troops would face peril as steadily if they were put to it?"
15958Tell me, Julian, are they in need of food or wine or any such thing within the walls?
15958Tell me, how goes it?"
15958Tell us-- did Fort William Henry surrender?"
15958That is Scripture law, is it?
15958The men shook hands with a hearty grip, and one said to Humphrey:"You have had Indians here?"
15958The next moment he gave a great start, and held out his hands in a gesture of amazement,"What-- who-- how-- is it a ghost I see?"
15958There was no fierceness in his strange face today, and Corinne, looking after him, said wonderingly:"Who is he?
15958They had lived there for ten years unmolested and at peace; who would care to molest them now?
15958Think you that you can take a letter safely to him?
15958To which scale will victory incline, think you, Monsieur?
15958Was it a cheer or a groan which arose from the town as the symbol of surrender was seen floating above the battlements?
15958Was it not of that projected march upon Quebec?"
15958Was that the thought in your mind, John Stark?"
15958Were their ears deceiving them?
15958Were these vast solitudes too far away for God to hear the prayers that went up from them?
15958Were you the only twain that desired to join the fight?"
15958Were you with him when he died?"
15958What English ship ever feared to pass a French battery yet?
15958What about old Killick?
15958What answer could he make?
15958What answer shall we return to our high- minded adversary?"
15958What boots the victory we have gained here, if it be not the stepping stone to lead us to Quebec?"
15958What can it be?
15958What can she do for us here out in the western wilds?
15958What does it all mean?
15958What does the Governor?
15958What was it they saw?
15958What was the parent country going to do for her Western children in their hour of need and extremity?
15958What was the word which I heard you speak as I entered?
15958What would be the next tidings which would reach them of their brethren in arms?
15958What, dost thou want to come with me?
15958What, then, were they doing, hurrying back in their boats like hunted hares?
15958When are these notable fire ships to be sent forth?"
15958When do we sail?
15958When have the English ever fled like this before us?
15958When was it?"
15958Where are all the rest from your smiling valley of the south?
15958Where are you?
15958Where had he heard those words, and when?
15958Where is Bougainville?
15958Who are the Penns these proprietaries-- that their lands should be exempt from taxation?
15958Who are you, and whence do you come?
15958Who do you think has come to Quebec?
15958Who is he, and why is his name in all men''s mouths?"
15958Who was speaking to her?
15958Who was to blame?
15958Who''s got a tomahawk?
15958Why did not the Governor leave a stronger force over yonder to protect us?"
15958Why do we do everything a month or more too late?
15958Why do you try to break my heart?"
15958Why does he not take steps for our defence?"
15958Why had Point Levi been so poorly defended?
15958Why had it been left such an easy prey to the foe?
15958Why not be a party of bold Rangers, scouring the forests, and doing whatever work comes to hand?
15958Why not form ourselves into a band of Rangers?
15958Why not let him choose a comrade, and go thither with letters and messages, and tell his tale in the ears of friends?
15958Why should we give up the city because a few hundred soldiers have been slain upon the Plains of Abraham?
15958Why should we lie idle here all the long winter through?
15958Why should we not at least cut our way out to the free forest, if we can not rout the enemy and drive them back whence they came?"
15958Will any naval battle he attempted?"
15958Will the flag of England displace that of France over the town and fortress of this city of Quebec?"
15958Will you serve your distressed brethren better as Rangers of the forest, or as emissaries to England?"
15958With whom are you talking there?"
15958Wolfe raised his head, and asked, with something of the old ring in his voice:"Who run?"
15958Would the Governor grant them an experienced officer to lead them?
15958Would we have been as forbearing-- as stern in the maintenance of order and discipline?
15958You can all use snowshoes, I see, and doubtless skates also?"
15958You will come back?"
15958You will go and tell them your story, Humphrey?"
15958You will keep a place in your heart still for the rough Ranger Fritz?"
15958You will not forget us when we are gone, Susanna?
15958You would not have us hold back, if we can help to bring back the lustre of that name?
15958You would not hurt a maiden who trusts your chivalry and honour?"
15958and how quickly would it arrive?
15958and how?"
15958and were you here in the town also?"
15958and where shall we go when we get there?"
15958and where were you all the while?"
15958are you soldiers?
15958asked Charles once again;"how did I come to be hurt?"
15958asked Corinne;"are you not born in these lands of the West?"
15958cried Peter, waving his cap;"did we not say that the Frenchies would make a mess of it?
15958cried a voice from within, whilst Jack doubled himself up in a paroxysm of delight,"what are you saying so loud and free?
15958cried the midshipmen, when Colin told them what he had heard;"do they think to frighten English mariners with fireworks and bonfires?
15958d''ye think I''m going to take orders from a dog of a Frenchman, and aboard my own vessel, too?
15958did I not say so?"
15958exclaimed Colin, as he prepared to sail back to the dark city,"I wonder if he has seen the fate of his vaunted fire ships?"
15958have we not brought ruin upon our own heads by the wickedness and cruelty we have made our allies?
15958he asked, in a weak voice;"and how many are there of us?"
15958he exclaimed;"surely we are going forward to Quebec?"
15958he said;"is one of you that notable man himself?"
15958how fatal?"
15958how is it with our General?"
15958how were you?
15958how will it end?"
15958is that truly so?
15958oh, is it so?"
15958or had the flitting sails been seen, and would the iron rain pour upon the gallant vessels making the daring passage?
15958or is it true what I hear-- that your headquarters will be with the camp at Beauport?"
15958sighed the Abbe; and after a pause of musing he added,"Is he conscious?"
15958they will not give up Quebec without a struggle?
15958what are you two fighting about so hotly?"
15958what did he do?"
15958what do you think?
15958what if they do conquer?
15958what is hardship?
15958what is that?"
15958who goes there?"
20524''Tain''t much uv a town arter all; is it?
20524Ah, lad,turning to Noll,"my little gal w''u''d liked yer teaching, an''yer B''s an''A''s, eh?"
20524Ah,he sighed,"why did I not try to follow after?"
20524An''what be this?
20524An''ye do n''t know nuthin''what it''s like?
20524An''you''s come down to lib wid yer Uncle Dick?
20524And what do you propose to do here?
20524And you have been exposing yourself? 20524 And you''ll help me, too?"
20524Are n''t you going to stop?
20524Ay, an''his lad be where many o''your''n an''mine ha''been, eh, Dirk?
20524Ay, mother,said Dirk,"an''it be time we had new habits to go with the new housen, eh?"
20524Been sick down''ere; hev ye?
20524Ben Tate?
20524Ben, ye mean?
20524Ben? 20524 Bress ye, honey, ye did n''t''spect to go back in de dark to Culm?"
20524But I''ll not go to Wind Cliff?
20524But have n''t you got a bundle of''em for me?
20524But how is the carpenter to be paid for his labor, if this all goes for lumber?
20524But will you try?
20524But you are mine, now, not his,said Trafford; with something like displeasure in his tone;"are n''t you aware of it?"
20524But, Uncle Richard--"Well?
20524Ca n''t ye see the lad''s got all he ken weather?
20524Call this a half- hour afore sunrise, squire?
20524Can I see Dirk,--Dirk Sharp?
20524Can you tell me where he left my trunks?
20524Come at last, hev ye?
20524D''ye see his eyes? 20524 Did he tell you aught of me?"
20524Did n''t dis yer ole woman tell ye so? 20524 Did ye hear that, Jack?"
20524Did ye want the skipper, lad?
20524Do ye mean boxes like?
20524Do you mean that papa did wrong?
20524Do you really_ hope_ I''ll stay, Uncle Richard?
20524Do you think I can forget it, Hagar? 20524 Do you think I can succeed?"
20524Do you think I''m too small to take care of myself, Hagar?
20524Don''ye t''ink so? 20524 Even if I thought it best?"
20524For what?
20524Goin''down to Culm for a bit o''vacation?--to git scarce o''the books, eh?
20524Have ye foun''de Lord, Mas''r Dick?
20524Have-- have you found the Lord Jesus, Uncle Richard?
20524He has still some thoughts of returning?
20524He''s weary of it already,he thought;"and who can wonder?
20524How can he care for these dirty, dull- witted fellows that ca n''t spell their own names, when he is so smart and such a long, long way above them?
20524How can you ask that? 20524 How can you love such a man as myself?
20524How ken I tell?
20524I asked you,said Trafford,"whether you would be willing to give up the school if another teacher took your place?"
20524I thank you more than I can tell, Ben,said Noll, taking the skipper''s hand;"and have you taken your pay for the freight and all the trouble?"
20524I was looking at the sea,said Noll;"and-- and-- what''s the matter, Dirk?"
20524I wonder if Dirk has any little ones?
20524I wonder if he will offer to teach me?
20524I would-- if Uncle Richard had n''t forbidden,said Noll;"do you think you have any medicines that can help the child, Hagar?"
20524Ill? 20524 In everything else, Uncle Richard,"he answered, with red cheeks and downcast eyes;"but this-- but this-- oh, how can you ask me to stop?
20524In what way?
20524Is n''t the fever raging there?
20524Is n''t there some one on the Rock that can help, that knows something about medicine?
20524Is that the house?
20524It_ does_ seem pleasanter,Noll admitted;"and where''s Uncle Richard?"
20524Mabby he ken tell what''tis ter be losin''his own, an''no help fur it, eh?
20524Mas''r Dick? 20524 Mas''r Oliver dead?
20524May you?
20524No; how can you?
20524No; how should I?
20524Noll, did you wish to speak to me?
20524Noll,said he after a long silence,"do you mean that you will not obey me?"
20524Of course it is; who else should it be?
20524Oh,thought Noll,"why was n''t I more careful?
20524Papa? 20524 Sent here to break Uncle Richard''s heart?"
20524Skipper, where''s my carpet- bag? 20524 Then you have not been harmed?"
20524They ben''t glad to see each other, eh, Jack?
20524Too late?
20524Uncle Richard? 20524 Vacation?
20524Was that what kept you so late? 20524 Well, I mus''say I did n''t think to find ye so?
20524Well, I wonder if he thinks I came here for that purpose?
20524Well, now what have you got in your head, I''d like to know?
20524Well, that''s wuss''n bein''without letters, eh, lad?
20524Well,said Trafford, after a long silence,"do you wish anything more, Noll?"
20524Well?
20524What about him?
20524What about them?
20524What be these?
20524What be wantin''now, lads?
20524What did he wish you to do and be?
20524What do you think Hagar has told me about your work this winter? 20524 What is Dirk or his to you?"
20524What is it?
20524What is that?
20524What were you there for?
20524What ye waitin''fur? 20524 What''s happened, Mas''r Dick?"
20524When did the skipper go?
20524Where be the boxes, man?
20524Where were you all the forenoon?
20524Who would like to know how to read?
20524Why are you so grave and sober of late?
20524Why do n''t ye go''long''thout him?
20524Why do n''t you teach''em yourself?
20524Why do you stand here,he cried, furiously,"when they are perishing out there?
20524Why go there till we go for the last time?
20524Why not?
20524Why not?
20524Why not?
20524Why wo n''t you try to hope?
20524Why, Uncle Richard?
20524Why, what do you mean?
20524Will you forgive me, Uncle Richard? 20524 Will you go, or send something in the morning?"
20524Will you obey me or not?
20524Wonder ef Mas''r Dick misses him? 20524 Wonder what Mas''r Dick''s got on his heart dis yer night?"
20524Would you like it now?
20524Would you like to take the fever and be buried with the rest up there in the sand?
20524Ye be fair an''white,said the old fish- wife, touching Noll''s cheek with her skinny finger,"an''what be ye here on the Rock fur?"
20524Yes, if you mean Uncle Richard''s brother,said Noll, still very sad- hearted;"and was n''t he looking for me at all?"
20524You do n''t mean that I''m not to go there any more?
20524A deep silence followed, broken at last by another"Well?"
20524A lighthouse?"
20524A sudden suspicion came into Trafford''s mind, and turning his keen eyes upon Noll, he exclaimed,--"Can you explain this?"
20524After getting the wondering assemblage seated in proper order, Noll began by asking,"Who wants to learn to read?"
20524An'', lad, how goes it?"
20524An''did Mas''r Dick know ye''s comin''?"
20524An''what be all this fur?"
20524An''what be the like o''them to you?"
20524An''what ye goin''to do when the''Gull''stops cruisin''fur the season, an''ye ca n''t get a word frum the city?"
20524An''you''s all alone now, chile?"
20524And I?
20524And are you putting on airs because you''ve got to be a pedagogue?
20524And are you really going to hire some one to take my place?"
20524And could he have the patience and skill which was necessary?
20524And he?
20524And how is it about books?"
20524And hurry up and answer this letter by return steamer( what should we do if the old''Gull''went to the bottom?
20524And if he did not?
20524And now shall we talk about studies?"
20524And oh, why do n''t_ you_ help those poor, dying people?
20524And was he not already doing something?
20524And what then?
20524And what we want to know is whether you will do the business?"
20524And when will you commence?"
20524And where could a room for the school be found?
20524And where was the leisure time to come from?
20524And why should you spend all your money for them?"
20524And why was I not consulted, if this was your work?"
20524And will you hire a teacher for those Culm children?
20524And would he go?
20524And, Noll, wo n''t you tell me what these people are to you?
20524And, if you please, will you go out to supper?
20524And, when once in the charmed circle of old friends and associations, would he not dislike to return to gray and barren Culm Rock?
20524And-- well, ca n''t you shake hands over it?
20524Are you bound to be always in danger?"
20524Are you crazy, Noll?"
20524Are you determined to catch the fever?
20524Are you ill, my boy?"
20524Are you ready for them?"
20524Are you tired with the journey?"
20524At Noll''s summons, he came lounging out of an inner room, and, catching sight of the boy, said,--"Lookin''for yer trunks, lad?
20524At last he said,"Do n''t you understand?"
20524At last he said,"What would you say if I forbade you to continue your school through the winter?"
20524At last,--"Is ye certain sure, Mas''r Dick?
20524Be it evil, think ye?
20524Be it frum Hastings, Mas''r Dick?"
20524But do you think his sorrow lessened?
20524But his voice and tone were as calm as ever when he said, a few minutes after,--"_ You_ did this?
20524But how can I?
20524But is ye sorry, Hagar?
20524But it passed away, and in sudden frenzy and despair he rushed up to Dirk, exclaiming,--"How do you know, man?
20524But now papa was gone, and Uncle Richard?
20524But what right had he to look to Heaven for aid?--he who knew not God, nor sought him, nor desired his love?
20524But where was there a deliverer?
20524But whose name did you mention?"
20524Ca n''t you guess what it is?"
20524Ca n''t you see through a ladder, Ben?
20524Can a lad like you ever be contented in this old house?"
20524Could he survive another?
20524Could he teach those idle, ignorant children?
20524Could nothing be done?
20524D''ye see the way he be runnin''up an''down, poor man?"
20524D''ye think he be one to teach our young uns wrong, eh?
20524D''ye_ know_ he started?
20524Dar''s all poor Mas''r Noll''s books an''t''ings lyin''''bout eberywhar, an''how ken de poor chile stan''it?
20524Did ever the sea quench a fairer, brighter life?
20524Did he say?"
20524Did ye drop down frum de sky, or what, chile?"
20524Did ye promise de Lord, or who?"
20524Did you know that we have actually got company?
20524Did you see how they made way for us, and touched their caps, some of them?
20524Didn''t-- didn''t Uncle Richard expect me?"
20524Do n''t ye know he wo n''t''spise an''hate ye jes''as ef he was like a man?
20524Do n''t ye know it, Mas''r Dick?--can''t ye feel it?
20524Do n''t ye know it?
20524Do n''t ye know whose wind and whose sea''tis?"
20524Do n''t you really think so, too, Uncle Richard?"
20524Do n''t you remember?
20524Do n''t you remember?"
20524Do n''t_ ye_ t''ank de Lord?"
20524Do you really mean it?
20524Do you really mean that-- that you''re going to repair their huts for them?"
20524Do you think I am?"
20524Do you think I can help wanting to do what is his work?"
20524Do you think I could do anything, Hagar?"
20524Do you think he found peace and happiness again?
20524Do you think he''ll scold because I''ve come?"
20524Do you think you''ll grant it?
20524Do you understand?"
20524Do you understand?"
20524Do you wonder that people could spend their lives here, die, and never have seen the world without?
20524Do you wonder what could make him so stern and sad?
20524Do_ you_ think papa would be pleased?"
20524Does I''spect ye ken do anything fur dem yer?
20524Does he know?"
20524Driver, put these trunks aboard in a hurry, since the skipper is waiting; and-- Noll, are you ready?"
20524Goin''to let me carry ye back to Hastings afore the''Gull''stops runnin''?"
20524Had he not fled to Culm Rock to escape all knowledge of what was transpiring in the world without,--to forget friends and kin, if that was possible?
20524Had he only saved a body from which the life had flown?
20524Had not everything about the boy and his life been bright and pleasant to think of?
20524Had the sea given him up?--had that terrible tempest spared him in its wild fury?
20524Hagar moved wearily about from the cupboard to the table, saying to herself,--"What ye t''inkin''ob, Hagar, to tell him dat?
20524Hagar shall not move them, and I will have them before my eyes alway, just as his dear hands left them?
20524Hagar wiped a pile of plates, and laying down her towel, said, reverently,--"Promise, chile?
20524Hain''t ye never been to Culm afore?"
20524Have you no regard for your life,--for my happiness?"
20524He be a good lad to mend our housen so finely, and w''u''d ye think I ben''t willin''to do his wish?"
20524He ca n''t know what I would be to him if I could; how can he?
20524He said, one day, while sitting on a great heap of shingles beside the carpenter,--"What''s to become of all these children, Mr. Sampson?
20524He suddenly faced the skipper, saying, very earnestly,"What kind of a place is Culm Rock, anyhow?
20524He turned to Noll, saying, with a little smile,--"Some of your sworn friends?"
20524He wished that he might do something toward the work; but, then, how could he?
20524How can I believe it?
20524How can you tell?
20524How could he lose him now?
20524How does the money hold out?
20524How ken ye?"
20524How ken ye?"
20524How would it be when he was gone?
20524Hurry, boy?"
20524I could n''t be sober, like Noll, if I should try; and you would n''t want me to; would you, old fellow?"
20524I hope so,"said Noll;"but what are the people going to do till then?"
20524I wonder if I am to grow up like those dull Culm people?"
20524I wonder if my trunks will come this morning?
20524I''m glad I brought hooks and lines, and-- What''s that light ahead?
20524I?
20524If Noll had sent him a farewell,--a last message,--oh, what would he not give to hear it?
20524Is n''t it a town?"
20524Is n''t this enough?
20524Is tea all ready?"
20524Is that how you came to be caught by the tide?"
20524Is there a school at Culm Rock?
20524Is your uncle like your father at all?"
20524It drew near Trafford, at last, and a tremulous old voice said,--"Is dis ye, Mas''r Dick?
20524It dun make ye homesick?"
20524It was always,"And how do you get on with your plan?--and are the houses''most finished?"
20524It''s a dreadful t''ing not ter know de Lord; ai n''t it, chile?
20524It''s-- it''s-- oh, it''s will you take a walk?"
20524Kase, do n''t ye know de Lord''s in it?
20524Lonesome any?
20524Mas''r Dick, why do n''t ye t''ank Him fur savin''ob yer boy fur ye?"
20524May I go around to Culm after breakfast?"
20524May I?
20524May I?"
20524Might not these long wasted years yet be paid for by deeds of mercy and charity?
20524Mr. Snape came up just here, drawling,"What ye think o''the winters down''ere, now, lad?"
20524Must the child die for lack of a little medicine?
20524Noll asked, with a puzzled face,--"what is to befall me, Uncle Richard?"
20524Noll hardly knew what answer to make to this vehement question, and finally made none at all, but asked,--"Are any of your family ill, Dirk?"
20524Noll looked up quickly, with,"Papa lost to you, to me, Uncle Richard?
20524Noll overheard one old fish- wife say,"We ben''t slick''nough for new housen; ther''ll hev to be great scrubbin''an''scourin''that day, eh, Janet?"
20524Noll thought in perplexity,"or shall I have to ask him?
20524Noll?
20524Not hear a word from Hastings for a whole long winter?
20524Now, ken ye''member all dat, honey?"
20524Now, what are those dirty fishermen to you, Noll?"
20524Of what use, he wondered as he sat there, was such a life as his?
20524Oh, I wonder if it is best to keep them?"
20524Oh, but I wonder if Ned ever regrets his denial, and longs for the pony?"
20524Oh, how can I ever find his face?--and how can he ever smile upon me who have rejected him?"
20524Oh, if there is a kind and merciful God, why has he stricken me?
20524Oh, the suspense and agony of those minutes!--the weary watching and waiting for-- what?
20524Papa_ lost_ to us?"
20524Shall I get them?"
20524Shall I have to command you to take off those wet clothes?"
20524Shall I try?"
20524Sick, ye mean?
20524So does n''t my plan seem possible?"
20524T''inkin''ob de mis''ry ober dar; ai n''t ye?"
20524The warm, eager color rushed into Noll''s face, and he cried,"Do you mean that-- that-- a teacher might take my place, Uncle Richard?
20524The--""But what will your uncle say?
20524Then Noll asked, softly,--"Do you give me permission to help them all I can, Uncle Richard?"
20524Then why-- why-- aren''t you thankful to God?"
20524Then, thinking his ears had deceived him, he said,"Why-- why-- what did you say, Uncle Richard?"
20524To be drowned in this dark, chill, raging flood?
20524To- morrow the tide would be at its work again, the ships go on, the sun shine warm and bright over all,--and he?
20524Trafford evinced no surprise, much to Noll''s wonder, and merely asked,"Where do you find the time?"
20524Trafford looked at him a few minutes in silence, and finally asked,--"What plans have you made for winter about your school, my boy?"
20524Trafford made a faint attempt to smile, and asked,--"Could Hagar find you anything fit to eat?
20524Trafford made no reply to this question, but, when he spoke again, said,"Not even if another teacher filled your place, Noll?"
20524Uncle Richard, do n''t you think it is terrible to see them so wretched, and no one to help them?"
20524W''u''d he be doin''us a bad turn who''s mendin''the housen an''makin''us comf''table?
20524Was he offended at what he had done and was doing for the Culm people?
20524Was he really standing upon a heavenly shore, where no waves beat nor tempest raved, and, perhaps, looking down upon his own lonely vigil?
20524Was he to be drowned?
20524Was it any wonder that-- with all this misery and death about him, and the sight of it distressing him-- Noll should grow sick at heart?
20524Was it only a rock, as the name suggested, and no town?
20524Was that what you meant?"
20524Was the dear form caught and held by the entangling arms of some purple weed in the sea depths?
20524Was there no place in the wide, wide earth where such wretchedness could not pursue?
20524Was this last loss meant to be the great affliction which, through love, should turn his heart toward God and his kingdom?
20524We came up to the kitchen- door, because Hagar''s light shone so brightly, and what do you think?
20524Well, well, honey, we dunno nuffin on dis yer Rock?
20524Were you in earnest, and shall I answer?"
20524What are those Culm people to us,--to me?
20524What can I do?
20524What cared he for the thunder of the sea, the wind''s screaming, and the terror of death which they boded?
20524What could have come across the man''s feelings so suddenly and with such effect?
20524What could he do with him?
20524What could it mean?
20524What did these things matter to him?
20524What did ye bring fur my little gal?"
20524What do you study, Noll?"
20524What ef de wind is blowin''?
20524What had wrought the change so suddenly?
20524What had you to do with?
20524What have you been up to that dreary little heap of graves for?"
20524What if even now the boy was oppressed with the languor and depression which precedes illness?
20524What if he were to die and be buried there, too?
20524What if it should be so?
20524What if the fever should get a hold of the boy?
20524What kind of a place could Culm Rock be?
20524What made ye ask dat?
20524What more would you have?"
20524What was there here to make the place endurable for a boy of his age and tastes?
20524What were you thinking of?
20524What ye feared of, Hagar?
20524What ye goin''to give me fur bringin''ye sech a parcel, Master Noll?"
20524What ye say, lads?"
20524What ye t''ink, honey?"
20524What ye think?
20524What''s de use ob stribin''to fight him?--what''s de use?
20524When he did perceive him, he stopped short, exclaiming, almost fiercely,--"What_ ye_ here fur, lad?--what ye here fur?
20524When is he going to stop here again?"
20524When shall we start?"
20524Where had he been sojourning all these long weeks?
20524Where will you get the money?
20524Which of them could be Uncle Richard?
20524Who could tell what peril the boy might be in while crossing the sea?
20524Who thought of danger or death then?
20524Who thought of death lying in wait in that calm, shadowy sea?
20524Who was to do it?
20524Who would not be forever sad with nothing beyond the grave but blank and darkness in which loved hearts were alway vanishing?
20524Whose is it?"
20524Why are you so silent, Noll?"
20524Why did he stay on this dreary Rock?
20524Why do n''t you help them, Uncle Richard?
20524Why do n''t you,--why_ do n''t_ you?"
20524Why do you sit here in the darkness?"
20524Why had the boy lingered so long?
20524Why hide them?
20524Why should I try to hide aught that his blessed memory lingers around?"
20524Why should he care for this boy or this boy''s letter?
20524Why shut them up in darkness, as if some evil, dreaded memory were connected with the sight of them?
20524Why, Mr. Trafford, what does Noll do with himself, anyhow?
20524Why, Uncle Richard, you wo n''t say''No''_ this_ time?"
20524Why, oh, why, of all times, did this gentle breathing come to him here?
20524Why, what be this?"
20524Why, you dear old fellow, ai n''t I better than letters?
20524Why_ did n''t_ I think of the tide?
20524Will they be left to grow up like their fathers and mothers?"
20524Will ye hab it wait any longer?"
20524Will you all be here?"
20524Will you bring them?
20524Will you let him drown without even an attempt to save him?
20524Will you let him drown without lifting a hand to save him?"
20524Will you?"
20524Will you?"
20524Will you?"
20524Wo n''t you be careful for my sake?"
20524Wo n''t you tell me?"
20524Wonder ef dis yer ole woman wo n''t be tickled''nuff to see him when de day comes?
20524Wonder what Mas''r Dick t''inks o''de boy?
20524Would He-- whom all his life long he had refused and rejected-- hear his cries?
20524Would Uncle Richard tell him if there were?
20524Would he give him a kind welcome?
20524Would it last alway?
20524Would n''t you like to be here to see us then?
20524Would n''t you, Ned?"
20524Would that happy day ever come?
20524Would the sea never give it up?
20524Would they ever sit still long enough to look in a book?
20524Ye do n''t wonder the little gal could n''t come up like the rest o''the young uns?"
20524Ye habn''t got any''Mas''r Dick;''so how ken ye?
20524Ye wo n''t mind Hagar''s ole kitchen jes''fur once, honey?"
20524You put your life in peril-- oh, I tremble to think_ what_ peril!--for Dirk''s miserable child?
20524_ His_ treasure was safe, safe!--torn from the very yawning mouth of the deep, and what were wreck and disaster of others to him?
20524and are n''t you terribly moped up in such quarters?
20524and do you know your voice sounded like papa''s just now?"
20524and for me?"
20524and how do they manage with their Greek?
20524and were n''t you awful homesick?
20524and what do you suppose he''ll say?"
20524and who could tell how many years of good deeds and charity could pay for forty years of wasted ones?
20524and why do n''t your Uncle Richard do the work, instead of you?"
20524and will they ever, ever learn the whole alphabet?"
20524and, you dear old Noll, how_ have_ you managed to live it through, anyhow?"
20524and-- When am I to begin my studies, and who am I to recite to?"
20524are you here?"
20524beyond those shining worlds, in that happy heaven which he trusted in?"
20524cried he, falling back a step or two,"ye ben''t goin''_ there_?"
20524do you forgive me?"
20524do you know what you are doing?"
20524exclaimed Ned,"what''re you thinking of?
20524exclaimed Trafford, impatiently,"what are these miserable fish- folks to you?
20524he thought to himself;"how could he ever bring himself to do it?
20524he thought;"and I wonder how those huts stand such a tempest as this?
20524he wondered,--a life fuller of rich and generous promise?
20524how can I help it, Uncle Richard?"
20524how did you find me?"
20524is dis Noll Trafford''s boy?"
20524muttered the skipper;"make the best o''this''ere breeze, eh, Jack?"
20524or was it cradled in the calm, unruffled quiet of some crevice of the rocks?
20524or,"Have you got those Culm savages almost civilized, you dear old Noll?--and does Uncle Richard know anything about it yet?
20524or,"Oh, now I think of it, how many scholars in Latin have you got down there?
20524said Hagar, in a shocked tone;"do n''t ye know de Lord''s all mercy an''lubbin''kin''ness?
20524said Hagar, with shining eyes;"an''what did ye do den, honey?"
20524said Hagar;"an''who is dem yer?"
20524said Hagar;"an''why did n''t yer father come too?"
20524said Ned, briskly, and not regretting this interruption;"what_ are_ we sitting here in the dark for, Noll?
20524said Noll, assuringly;"you''ve felt my hands, my face, my shoulders, and are n''t they alive and warm?"
20524said Noll;"I never was so glad to see anything as the old''Gull''in my life; and oh, why did n''t you come earlier, skipper?"
20524said Trafford:"but oh, my boy, where were you on that awful night?"
20524said he, incredulous;"what ye goin''to live in?"
20524said the black old figure, stooping over the cooking utensils on the stone hearth,"do n''t ye know?
20524skipper, have n''t you got a great packet of''em for me?"
20524thought Noll;"and what can he do with them, if they are ill?"
20524was there no deliverance?
20524what ef de sea is a- screamin''?
20524what to do?
20524what_ can_ be done?"
20524where are you?"
20524where ye bound fur now?
20524who''s dis?"
20524why has he left me without a comforter in the world?"
20524why has he taken all the joy out of my life?
20524you careless lad, what can I do with you?
13234Abbie, do you mean to say that in every little thing that you buy you weigh the subject, and discuss the right and wrong of it?
13234Alfred, what do you suppose that can mean?
13234And also I wonder if the rest of the world are as unlimited a set of humbugs as you suppose? 13234 And do you see as she gets on any better with her religion, than you do without it?
13234And so, Miss Ester, you manufactured me into a minister at our first meeting?
13234And that is being peculiar?
13234And where are the children?
13234And who is Sallie?
13234And you refused it?
13234And you thought it improper?
13234Anything special?
13234Are his affairs precarious, Abbie, or is finery prodigious?
13234Are n''t you the chairman of that committee to secure teachers for the evening school?
13234Are you going to New York?
13234Are you reading the Bible by course? 13234 Are you very certain of this thing, Doctor, and is it to come to me soon?"
13234Are you_ truly_ better, mother? 13234 Are_ you_ home?
13234But does he go without breakfast?
13234But how could we manage about your wardrobe? 13234 But in the meantime what do you suppose that bread was doing?
13234But then-- Well, Abbie, do you think it is wicked to like nice things?
13234But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?
13234But your example as a Christian lady, I trust, is such that it puts to shame your experience among gentlemen?
13234But, Abbie, did Aunt Helen really want you to have that pearl velvet we saw at Stewart''s?
13234But, Alfred,interrupted the truthful and puzzled Julia,"what can I do about it?
13234Ca n''t Maggie do any of these things?
13234Come, Birdie, Auntie Essie''s cross, is n''t she? 13234 Dear Friend: Are you a Christian?
13234Did he explain to you our misunderstanding?
13234Did mother say that?
13234Did you and Dr. Douglass have a private rehearsal? 13234 Did you hear me tell you to shut that door this instant?"
13234Did you hear that conversation, Doctor? 13234 Do I appear bitter?
13234Do n''t I?
13234Do n''t you? 13234 Do n''t_ you_ think I would be?"
13234Do you ask God''s help in these matters?
13234Do you feel able to get up to breakfast, Ester dear, or had you rather lie and rest?
13234Do you get down stairs at seven o''clock?
13234Do you give three evenings a week to religious meetings, Abbie?
13234Do you know where your son lives?
13234Do you know, dear Ester, there must have been two new joys in heaven to- day? 13234 Do you suppose you are to be trusted?"
13234Do you suppose,said Ester, growing metaphysical,"that if Mr. Foster were not a Christian you would marry him?"
13234Do you think so? 13234 Doctor, are you in haste?
13234Does Dr. Douglass agree with you?
13234Does every thing rise better after it is pricked?
13234Does n''t it annoy you to have her speak in that manner about him?
13234Does the Bible lay down one code of laws for you and another for Christians?
13234Dr. Douglass, what do you mean?
13234Dr. Van Anden,said Sadie with dignity,"do n''t you think there should be a difference between Christians and those who are not?"
13234Ester do you remember we stood together alone for a moment yesterday? 13234 Ester, does God really mean for us to love people who are ugly to us, and to be good to them?"
13234Ester, is it very important that one should be sentimental on such an occasion? 13234 Ester, where is your Bible?
13234Ester, will you pray?
13234Father,she said softly,"you''ll let your little curly have her own way just this time, wo n''t you?
13234For what, Dr. Douglass; and why did you laugh?
13234Had you a pleasant ride?
13234Has n''t mother got back yet?
13234Have n''t you? 13234 Have you all the help you want?"
13234Have you been receiving a little fraternal advice?
13234Have you enjoyed the evening?
13234How does it happen that I never knew it?
13234How has she been?
13234How is it with the boy who is expecting you; has he this same friend?
13234How is it with your cousin?
13234How many would be ashamed to have_ Him_ see?
13234How much have you?
13234How shall we commence?
13234How will you go, Ester? 13234 How?"
13234How_ could_ I have been such a simpleton?
13234I do n''t know that I have any choice?
13234I do n''t understand--she said at length--"How is that a solemn matter?
13234I know; but it is the easiest way of reaching my point; so I repeat: How much faith have you in these Christian professions? 13234 I think it was as queer in you as possible not to go to the concert last evening with Uncle Ralph?"
13234I wonder if you_ are_ as sincere as you pretend to be?
13234I wonder, if we were each obliged to write truthful answers to each one of them, how many we should be ashamed to have each other see?
13234I wonder,she soliloquized, returning to gravity the moment she was alone,"I wonder what that man has been saying to him now?
13234Including yourself, do you mean?
13234Is Dr. Van Anden the old gentleman''s nurse, or guardian, or what?
13234Is he a-- a Christian?
13234Is it all done up?
13234Is it possible,she said at length,"that_ that_ is all, and he can bear such determined ill- will toward you?
13234Is it your private opinion that our good doctor got up a streak of disinterested enthusiasm over my unworthy self this evening?
13234Is n''t dancing an innocent amusement?
13234Is that the momentous question which you ca n''t decide, mother?
13234Is that thing hot?
13234Jule,called a familiar voice, under her window,"where are you?
13234Miss Ried, Miss Abbie sent me to say that there was company waiting to see you, and if you please would you come down as soon as you could?
13234Mr. Foster, do n''t you think she is_ very_ peculiar?
13234Mr. Foster,said Ester, with flushing cheeks, and in a whirl of vexation,"_ do n''t_ you understand me?"
13234No,said Ester;"I should like to hear you?"
13234Not from that dear old friend of ours on the cars?
13234Now have you found something to laugh at in me already?
13234Now what is the matter? 13234 Now, Doctor, what ever possessed you to think that I had never read that verse?"
13234Now, Ester, you are very tired, are n''t you? 13234 Oh Abbie, Abbie, how can you bear it-- how_ can_ you live?"
13234Oh, Ester,she said,"_ are_ these biscuits done, or will they be sticky and hateful in the middle?"
13234Oh, where is Dr. Van Anden?
13234Oh,said Ester,"girls go, too, do they?"
13234Pleasant?
13234Queer, was it? 13234 Rather odd things to be found in our possession, would n''t they be?
13234Sadie, had n''t I better make these pies?
13234Sadie, wo n''t you come and cut the beef and cake, and make the tea? 13234 Sadie,"said Ester, in a low, shocked tone,"_ do_ you think we are all hypocrites, and mean not a bit of this?"
13234Sadie,said Ester,"how_ can_ you teach those children such nonsense?"
13234Sadie,said Julia, rising suddenly, and moving over to where the frolic was going on,"wo n''t you tell us about our lesson?
13234Sadie,said he,"is there one verse in the Bible which you have never read?"
13234Sadie,said the doctor,"are you in the mood for a ride?
13234See here, are n''t you sorry that you could n''t go to Vesta''s, and had to stay up there alone all day, and that it bothered mother?
13234Shall I have the pleasure of being your carrier?
13234Shall I help you?
13234Shall I read, as you are so weary?
13234Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?
13234Should they not be connected?
13234Tell her what, I wonder? 13234 Then shall I?
13234There was?
13234Three weeks ago I had n''t the least idea of being here; and who knows what may happen in the next three weeks? 13234 Very likely; what then?"
13234Was-- Did he,with an inclination of her head toward the silent occupant of the couch,"Did he ever think he was a Christian?"
13234Well, Doctor, do you think-- would you be willing to propose my name as one of the teachers? 13234 Well, but what_ can_ that mean--''If a man strikes you on one cheek, let him strike the other too?''"
13234Well, but why does that help them any? 13234 Well, is that to be set down as a matter of religion, too?"
13234Well, then, why do n''t we, if God says so? 13234 Well, then,"said Ester,"we''ll all forgive each other, shall we, and begin over again?
13234Were there reports?
13234Were you at Mrs. Burton''s on the evening in which our society met?
13234What do they know about heat, or care, or trouble?
13234What do you think of her?
13234What does Dr. Van Anden want to act like a simpleton about Florence Vane for?
13234What has put you into that state of mind, Harry?
13234What have you been up to now?
13234What is supposed to be the matter with Sallie?
13234What is supposed to be the object?
13234What next, I wonder?
13234What of that? 13234 What shall we do that we might work the works of God?"
13234What things, Miss Ester?
13234What unaccountable witchcraft has taken possession of me?
13234What? 13234 What_ did_ I come after?"
13234What_ have_ I done now? 13234 What_ have_ you been doing?"
13234Whatever does he want of me do you suppose, Maggie? 13234 Where is Uncle Ralph?"
13234Where shall we commence? 13234 Who is Mr. Foster?
13234Who quarreled?
13234Who?
13234Why not?
13234Why should you feel obliged to do so if you were a Christian?
13234Why that bit of paper-- or is it a ghostly communication from the world of spirits? 13234 Why, Ester, what do you mean?
13234Why, Sadie, you poor dear child, what_ can_ be the matter?
13234Why,Ester asked, startled a little at the energy of her tone,"do you think it is wrong?"
13234Why? 13234 Will you promise, Sadie?"
13234Wo n''t he be glad though, to see his mother once more? 13234 Would you mind telling me some of the considerations?"
13234Yes,he said inquiringly, and with the most quiet and courteous air;"would you object to mentioning some of those things?"
13234Yes,said Abbie with softly glee;"is n''t it splendid?
13234You are not a bit sentimental; are you, Abbie?
13234You did n''t mend my dress and iron it, and curl my hair, and fix my sash, for him, did you?
13234You were not aware that you had improved so much in two years, now, were you?
13234_ Was_ she a fellow- pilgrim after all?
13234--this with a merry laugh"Did you suppose that people in New York lived without such inconveniences?"
13234A blank?
13234Abbie''s face expressed only innocent surprise"Do n''t you read together?
13234About her being out to- night?
13234Alfred, did I, honestly, make her cry?"
13234And the words he slowly uttered were yet more startling:"Am I going to die?"
13234And what was the matter with her anyway?
13234And which shall I leave for you?
13234And why was all this fearful time allowed to come to Abbie?
13234And yet could any contrast be greater than was Abbie''s life contrasted with hers?
13234Are the friends with whom you have been talking traveling toward the New Jerusalem?
13234Are you going to keep yours?"
13234Are you quite happy as a Christian?
13234Are you sure you have not mistaken your vocation?"
13234At which question Mr. Foster laughed, then answered good humoredly:"Do you think me a competent witness in that matter?"
13234But do you rank Abbie among those for whom it was naturally easy?"
13234But in what rank should she place this young, and beautiful, and wealthy city lady?
13234But may I say a word to you personally?
13234But then had not_ she_ this same faith?
13234But who would think of Dr. Van Anden being such a man?
13234But why do you ask?"
13234But will Ralph ever forget the little sweet smile which illumined for a moment the pure young face, as she turned confiding eyes on him?
13234Ca n''t they get up unless you make holes in them, and what is all the reason for it?"
13234Ca n''t you be married if he is n''t here?"
13234Ca n''t you do_ any thing_ soberly?"
13234Can you lead it without the notes?"
13234Can you play I am Sadie for just a little while?"
13234Come down and mend my sail for me, wo n''t you?"
13234Could it be possible that he was to come for her so soon, before any of these things were done?
13234Could she,_ would_ she, that gentle, timid, shrinking mother?
13234Could she?--must she?
13234Could the heart have ceased its beating?
13234Could this be her uncle''s house?
13234Could you not go to her?"
13234Did n''t you ever try to do things for Jesus before?"
13234Did n''t you know Mrs. Carleton was worse?"
13234Did she want to see any of them?"
13234Did the fairies send you?"
13234Did the pronoun startle you?"
13234Did you ask him if he_ would_ be?
13234Did you compare notes with them as to how you were all prospering on the way?
13234Did you get it for me, Ralph?
13234Did you make them?
13234Do n''t you enjoy teaching Alfred?"
13234Do n''t you think so?"
13234Do n''t you think the Psalms are wonderful, Ester?"
13234Do you call it being peculiarly good or peculiarly bad?"
13234Do you find your love growing stronger and your hopes brighter from day to day?"
13234Do you have a thousand little private marks in your Bible that nobody else understands?
13234Do you know I always feel a temptation to read in John?
13234Do you live in New York?"
13234Do you mean to say that you have no faith in any one''s religion?"
13234Do you put anything else in apple- pies?
13234Do you shrink from responsibility of that kind, Ester?
13234Do you suppose she will die, Alfred?"
13234Do you think it is kindness to keep a friend in ignorance of what very nearly concerns him, simply to spare his feelings for a little?"
13234Do you think it is quite right to neglect her so, when she must be very anxious to hear from home?''
13234Do you want it?"
13234Do you want_ these_ washed?"
13234Do_ you_ think that every person ought or ought_ not_ to be a Christian?"
13234Does it comfort your heart very much to remember that, in all your partings and trials, you are never called upon to bid Jesus good- by?"
13234Does it require a great deal of gravity, mother?
13234Does it seem, sometimes, as if it would almost rush you?"
13234Does n''t he look like a grand old patriarch?"
13234Does she fully understand that she and I are to officiate?
13234Does she seem worse to you?"
13234Does that condemn them?"
13234Does the comical side of it ever strike you, Ester?
13234Douglass?"
13234Douglass?"
13234Douglass?"
13234Douglass?"
13234Dr. Douglass broke the beautiful silence first with earnestly spoken words:"Doctor, will you forgive all the past?"
13234Dr. Douglass had been most in the wrong, though what man, unhelped by Christ, was ever known to believe this of himself?
13234Dr. Douglass''coolness forsook him for a moment"Who did?"
13234Dr. Douglass, will you pardon those bitterly spoken words of mine?"
13234Ere Sadie could reply the horses were stopped before the door, and Dr. Van Anden addressed her:"Sadie, do you want to take a ride?"
13234Ester''s face paled a little, but she asked, quietly enough:"How do you know all this?"
13234Ester, ca n''t you go down?
13234Ester, how many times ought I to beg your pardon for using an unknown tongue-- in other words, slang phrases?
13234Ester, how_ did_ you make things go right?
13234Ester, why do n''t you?"
13234For instance, do you think I prejudiced my father?"
13234For instance, what had become of his powers of discernment?
13234Foster?"
13234Foster?"
13234Gilbert?"
13234God''s angel had been present in that room, and in what a spirit had he found this watcher?
13234Gone?
13234Had an angel spoken to Ester, or was it the dear voice of the Lord himself?
13234Had her cousin Abbie actually"spoken in meeting?"
13234Had the world gone wild?
13234Has Abbie no trials to meet, no battles with Satan to fight, so far as you can discover?"
13234Have I imagined it, or does she speak of him frequently in her letters, in a way that gives me an idea that his influence is not for good?"
13234Have I kept you waiting, Abbie?"
13234Have n''t I promised to hoe out the rooms myself, immediately after the conclusion of the solemn services?"
13234Have n''t you just five minutes for me?"
13234Have you been careful to recommend the religion of Jesus Christ by your words, by your acts, by your looks, this day?
13234Have you been finding work to do for the Master?"
13234Have you been taken into his kindly care?
13234Have you begged the blood of Jesus to be spread over it all?
13234Have you done_ nothing_ for the Master?
13234Have you much more to do?"
13234Have you noticed the banging of doors, and the general confusion that reigns through the house?
13234Have you resolved in your own strength or in His?"
13234Have you resolved that no other day shall witness a repeatal of the same mistakes?
13234Have you seen Ester, my daughter?"
13234He could but feel that he had shrunken from his duty, hidden behind that most miserable of all excuses:"What will people think?"
13234He spoke abruptly and with a touch of nervousness:"Dr. Douglass, may I have a few words with you in private?"
13234How can I make any such promise as that?
13234How can you and mother be so unreasonable as to expect perfection when it is all new, and I really never practiced in my life?"
13234How could she know that the hateful letter was going to tumble out of her apron pocket?
13234How did he know?
13234How do you fancy you happened to escape getting mixed up with the general humbugism of the world?
13234How much sugar, mother?
13234How queer it was that in the smallest matters she and Abbie could not agree?
13234How shall I be glad enough to see you?"
13234How was it possible that the same set of rules could govern them both?
13234How will Dr. Van Anden enjoy the idea of a rival?"
13234How?"
13234How_ can_ you be so calm, so submissive, at least just now-- so soon-- and you were to have been married to- day?"
13234How_ could_ life have seemed to her dull and uninteresting and profitless?
13234How_ could_ they tell her?
13234I commenced reading the Bible through once; but I stopped at some chapter in Numbers-- the thirtieth, I think it is, is n''t it?
13234I say, Ester, will you give me a cookie?"
13234I should have warned them-- how came I to shrink so miserably from my duty?
13234I suppose you have it with you?"
13234I suppose you would have me unhesitatingly receive every word he says?"
13234I told you so, did n''t I?"
13234I want to know if you call it inconsistent to leave your prayer meeting for just one evening, no matter for what reason?"
13234I wonder how much of that nonsense which Dr. Douglass talks he believes, any way?
13234I wonder if they are going to call here?
13234I wonder what can have become of that blue one?"
13234I''ve some errands to do, and I''ll show you the city with pleasure; or would you prefer sitting here and looking around you?"
13234If a fellow really means to do a thing, what does he wait to be punched up about it everlastingly for?
13234If danger comes to you, have you this day asked Christ to be your helper?
13234If death comes to you this night, are you prepared to give up your account?
13234If he would that she should do her earthly work by lying down very soon in the unbroken calm of the"rest that remaineth,""what was that to her?"
13234If the child finds any comfort in such an atmosphere, where''s the harm?
13234If we really expect to meet our Savior at a prayer- meeting, is n''t it a delightful thought?
13234In case you are the happy man, I hope you are grateful?"
13234In the meantime, where is the tea- bell?"
13234Is Thursday your regular prayer- meeting evening, Ester?"
13234Is it necessary?"
13234Is n''t it so?"
13234Is n''t it splendid, though?
13234Is n''t it?
13234Is not the Bible doctrine,''He that is not for me is against me?''
13234Is that Miss Sadie Ried''s logic?"
13234Is that sound logic, Sadie?
13234Is that stranger by your side a fellow- pilgrim?
13234Is that the way to speak to your sister?
13234Is the Savior untrue to his promises, or is his professed servant untrue to him?"
13234Is there anything else, mother, before I put the top on?"
13234Is there_ nobody_ to help us?"
13234It''s an awful homely name, I think, do n''t you?
13234Jones?"
13234Julia, what is that you want to know?"
13234May I advise you, professionally, to go in immediately?"
13234May I ask why?"
13234May I ask you?
13234Mother, ca n''t I have one of Ester''s cookies?
13234Mr. Ried came to an upright posture, and even Ralph asked a startled question:"Where is she going?"
13234Mrs. Ried called,"ca n''t you come and wash up these baking dishes?
13234Mrs. Ried was even more hopeless a dependence than Ester; and Mr. Ried cried out in the very agony of despair:"What_ shall_ we do?
13234Nothing?
13234Now if her hands had found work waiting for her down this first flight of stairs instead of down two, as she had planned, what was that to her?
13234Now was Abbie right and she wrong?
13234Oh why was it?
13234Oh, Ester, you have a little brother; are n''t you so glad he is a_ little_ boy?"
13234Oh, Sadie, I have led you astray, may I not help you back?"
13234Oh, what_ was_ Ester to say?
13234Oh, would the gracious Spirit which had been struggling with him leave him indeed to himself?
13234On foot?
13234Ought I to welcome you, or you me-- which is it?
13234Perhaps he is a Christian now; is he?"
13234Plans?
13234Poor, poor Abbie she had been so bright and so good, and Mr. Foster had been so entirely her guide-- how could she ever endure it?
13234Pray, Miss Ester, was Mrs. Burton''s report irreligious?"
13234Presently Ester came out to them:"Sadie, ca n''t you go to the office for me?
13234Presently Julia recovered her composure, and commenced with--"Say, Ester, what makes you prick little holes all over your biscuits?"
13234Presently she addressed Ester in a bright little tone:"Does n''t it bore you dreadfully to wait in a depot?"
13234Sadie laughed, and ran her fingers lightly over the keys; but she asked:"In which class do you place your brother in the profession, Doctor?"
13234Sadie, are you going to the lyceum tonight?"
13234Sadie, where is mother?"
13234Say, you_ dear_ Ester, how_ did_ you happen to come?
13234Shall I bid you good- evening, sir?"
13234Shall you and I have prayers together to- night?
13234She is to go, is n''t she?"
13234She no longer said,"Ought I?"
13234Sis"--turning suddenly to Abbie--"Have you prepared Ester for her fate?
13234Sis, has Foster made a temperance man of you entirely; I see you are devoted to ice water?"
13234Sis, how could you have the conscience to perpetrate a wedding in August?
13234So do please tell me, ought I to be in a lunatic asylum somewhere instead of preparing to go to Europe?"
13234Suppose I hang up some of these dresses?
13234Suppose I see what it is?
13234Surely, she could not be a fanatic?
13234That is only natural and courteous, is it not?"
13234That you are making much ado about nothing, for the sake of showing your astonishing skill?"
13234The question is, do you understand yourself?
13234Then he turned suddenly to Ester, and spoke in a quiet, respectful tone:"Is the stranger by my side a fellow- pilgrim?"
13234Then what have you done against Him?
13234Then, more gravely:"Dr. Van Anden, do you really mean me to think that I was perverting Scripture?"
13234They''re kind of startling questions like; enough to most scare a body, unless you was trying pretty hard, now ai n''t they?"
13234They_ stung_ her, those words:"Auntie Essie''s cross, is n''t she?"
13234Though what my motive could be I can not imagine, can you?
13234WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?
13234WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?
13234Was he, after all, mistaken?
13234Was her profession a mockery, her life a miserably acted lie?
13234Was it merely chance that this sentence had so persistently met her eye all this day, put the card where she would?
13234Was it possible that she must leave Sadie, bright, brilliant, unsafe Sadie, and go away where she could work for her no more?
13234Was no one to give it voice?
13234Was not the Lord ashamed of them all, I wonder?
13234Was she a child, to be commanded by any one?
13234Was she never to be at peace again?
13234Was that cross borne only for men?
13234Was this man, moving toward the very verge of the river, afraid?
13234Were there many out?"
13234Were they right, and was she all wrong?
13234Were you not giving the children wrong ideas concerning the teachings of our Savior?"
13234Were you, Auntie Essie?"
13234What could I have expected from Uncle Ralph''s son?
13234What could there be in this young man to cause anxiety, or to wish changed?
13234What does it mean?"
13234What does she know about the petty vexations and temptations, and bewildering, ever- pressing duties which every hour of every day beset your path?
13234What earthly right had this man whom she_ detested_ to give_ her_ advice?
13234What else am I strange about, Ester?"
13234What have you done to- day for Christ?
13234What if she should?
13234What is the matter?
13234What is there so shocking in a quiet glass of wine enjoyed with a select gathering of one''s friends?"
13234What mattered hers compared to_ HIS_?
13234What mattered it that they would be likely to ascribe a wrong motive to my caution?
13234What possessed the fellow to come whining around me to- night, and set me in a whirl of disagreeable thought?
13234What right had any one to speak in that way of Dr. Douglass?
13234What then?"
13234What will that do to it?
13234What would Abbie say to the fact that there were many, many prayerless days in her life?
13234What would Jesus think?
13234What would people think?
13234What would they say to her?
13234What would your record of this last day be?
13234What, then, sustained and guided her cousin?
13234What_ could_ she say?
13234What_ did_ this mean?
13234What_ was_ she to say?
13234What_ will_ people think?"
13234Whatever takes Foster abroad just now, any way?"
13234Where are they?"
13234Where are you and Sadie reading?"
13234Where do you like best to read, for devotional reading I mean?"
13234Where is Abbie?"
13234Where is Mr. Newton?
13234Where is that article?
13234Where should she read?
13234Where?"
13234Who could have written those sentences?
13234Who knows but I shall find a fortune hidden in it?"
13234Who lives in that little birdsnest of a cottage just across the way?"
13234Whom do you suppose she is to marry?
13234Why can not the rest of you be equally sensible?"
13234Why do n''t you ask Ester?
13234Why do you all act so strangely?
13234Why do you think I am not one of his admirers?"
13234Why had she come into that room at all?
13234Why have you come?
13234Why should not she say,"By his stripes_ I_ am healed?"
13234Why should those words have such strange power over her?
13234Why was he not glad to discover that Dr. Van Anden was more of a man than he had ever supposed?
13234Why, Ester, what have I been guilty of just now?"
13234Why, where is mother?"
13234Why?
13234Will Ester ever forget the start of terror which thrilled her frame as she felt that look and heard that word?
13234Will I, Birdie?"
13234Will it seem homelike to you?
13234Will you hold my horses, Miss Sadie, while I dispatch matters within?"
13234Will you never seek it for yourself, Sadie?"
13234Will you not ride down with me; it is unpleasant walking?"
13234Will you pardon my obtuseness and explain to me the wherefore?"
13234Will you promise, Sadie?"
13234Will you watch with her?"
13234Wo n''t the boys chuckle over these pies, though?
13234Wo n''t you consider the apparent inconsistency a little?
13234Wo n''t you enlighten me, Miss Ester?"
13234Would Ester want to die so, with no voice to cry for her to that listening Savior?
13234Would it be proper, under the circumstances, to refuse?
13234Would n''t you like to see anybody who did all that?"
13234Would that obviate your difficulty?"
13234Would you go to my sister, sir?"
13234Would you mind going down with me just to look at his face again?"
13234Yet such people as you and I ca n''t help having eyes and ears, and using them now and then, can we?"
13234Yet would it be proper to do violence to her sense of right?
13234Yet, had Ester nothing for which to be thankful that the group on the piazza had not?
13234You and I will have some precious readings out of this book, shall we not?
13234You are roommates, are n''t you?
13234You''ll room with me, Ester, wo n''t you?
13234_ Could_ He be glorified, though, by such very little things?
13234and Ester laughed at her former question; then, as a sudden thought occurred to her, she asked:"Is he a minister?"
13234and to be placed there in a conspicuous corner of a fashionable store?
13234but,"Can I?"
13234is he?"
13234is n''t she?"
13234or, dear Ester, would you prefer to be alone?"
13234or, in other words, how many professing Christians do you know who are particularly improved in your estimation by their professions?"
13234or, more properly speaking, what will it_ not_ do, inasmuch as it is not there to_ do_?
13234sure enough, Ester, who knows?"
13234was n''t she a Christian after all?
13234were they the only ones who had a thank- offering because of Calvary?
13234what_ possessed_ you to put her up there?"
13234why had she tried to rid herself of the sight of them?
13234you would n''t, if the Bible said you must n''t, would you?"
13183A prisoner? 13183 A warning, Gaston?
13183And Raymond too?
13183And did he come?
13183And did he not?
13183And had he accomplished naught?
13183And has he told thee that he comes with my sanction as a lover, and that thou and he are to we d ere the month is out?
13183And hast thou not seen him since?
13183And is there no person to care for the sick in all the town?
13183And so ye twain are my cousins?
13183And the other, Peter Sanghurst''s companion-- what of him? 13183 And the second?"
13183And thinkest thou that I will leave thee thus to languish after thou hast restored to me my brother?
13183And thou art sure that she is safe?
13183And thou hast never seen thy son again?
13183And thou wilt keep thy word?
13183And what did our father then? 13183 And what will be the hour when this attempt must be made?
13183And whither goest thou?
13183And who be ye, fair gentlemen?
13183Are you Gascons?
13183Art sure that thou art indeed thyself, my lord of Basildene?
13183Asked you not her name and station?
13183Basildene?
13183Be these gallant youths your sons, Sir John? 13183 But I shall see thee again, sweet Constanza?
13183But if thou goest thus into peril, sure thou wilt not go altogether alone?
13183But thinkest thou, Gaston, that in thus speaking our mother was thinking of the strong fortress of Saut? 13183 But why were they thus offended?
13183By Holy St. Anthony, where can the boy be?
13183Can he have been taken prisoner?
13183Canst tell me if there be shelter there for a weary traveller this night?
13183Did he do aught to show his gratitude?
13183Did he return to Basildene?
13183Do I not owe all-- my body and soul alike-- to you and Father Paul? 13183 Does he indeed speak of a lady?"
13183Fair Sir, how should a lonely maid dwelling in these wild woods know aught of that knightly love of which our troubadours so sweetly sing? 13183 Gaston, wilt thou go with me?
13183Good Jean, dost thou not know us?
13183Has Raymond been the whole time with you? 13183 Has the Black Death been there?"
13183Has the treasure been found?
13183Hast seen it, Gaston?
13183Hates you-- when you came to his father in his last extremity? 13183 Have we then uncles in England?"
13183He did not come again?
13183He is a good man and a kind one, and perchance if he knew us for kinsmen he might--"Might be kinder than before?
13183He is not dead?
13183He sits down, they both sit down, and then he laughs-- ah, where have I heard that laugh before?
13183His destruction?
13183How can we see her?
13183How could I love another, when thou hast called thyself my knight?
13183How have you come? 13183 How now, Nat?
13183How so?
13183How then came John de Brocas to tarry there so long? 13183 How?"
13183I remember well,answered Raymond quickly;"nay, what then?"
13183Is he yet alive, knowest thou?
13183Is it one of the blessed saints?
13183Is it that thou wouldst say, brother? 13183 Is that the only answer you have for me, sweet lady?"
13183Joan, child, has Peter Sanghurst been with thee today?
13183Joan,he said--"Joan, art thou there?
13183Know? 13183 Lady-- Mistress Joan-- art thou there?"
13183Lady?
13183Long indeed, Master Peter-- or should I say Sir Peter? 13183 Methinks thou comest from the Monastery hard by?"
13183My ladybird, is it thou, and at such an hour? 13183 My mother, I wonder if thou canst see us now-- Gaston at Saut and Raymond here at Basildene?
13183My son, and if it should be going to thy death?
13183Nat,she said, in a low voice,"thou hast not forgotten thy promise made to me?"
13183Nay now, why tarry ye here?
13183Nay now, why this haste? 13183 Nay, but how would the world go on without wars and gallant feats of arms?
13183Of thine uncle, who thou sayest is a friend of this unholy man?
13183Of whom then shall we take counsel?
13183Our grandsire?
13183Raymond, hast thou the wherewithal to kindle the torch?
13183Roger, is it thou?
13183Say, men, how can ye hope to resist the might of the Prince''s arm? 13183 Say, men, will ye have me for your lord?
13183Seneschal, art thou there? 13183 Shall we say aught to him, Gaston?"
13183Shall we see the feast?
13183Sorrowful? 13183 Tell me, what hast thou heard?"
13183The treasure of thy love, my Joan?
13183Then they have done naught to him as yet?
13183Then thou hast been there? 13183 Then was it the old man who took your boy, or was it his son?
13183Then you know on what quest we are bent, sweet Prince?
13183Then, if we find but our way across the water, we may find a home with one of them? 13183 There is none else to come betwixt her and me?
13183Thou art English?
13183Thou knowest a secret way by which the Tower of Saut may be entered-- is that so, Lady?
13183Thou thinkest perhaps that I have forgot the art of torture since thou wrested from me one victim? 13183 Thou thinkest still to defy me, mad boy?"
13183Thou thinkest that thy brother will come to thine aid? 13183 Thou thinkest to oust the Sanghurst thence-- to gain Basildene for Raymond?"
13183Thou too a prisoner in this terrible place, my Gaston? 13183 Thou wilt seek her and find her?
13183To what good would that be? 13183 Was it not reft from our grandsire by force?
13183What ails thee then, Raymond? 13183 What didst thou do when thou camest back?"
13183What fate?
13183What has come?
13183What hurts speakest thou of? 13183 What in the name of all the Holy Saints has befallen me?"
13183What means it all?
13183What posts?
13183What quest?
13183What said the King?
13183What then? 13183 What thing is that, fair Prince?"
13183What thinkest thou, good John? 13183 What use in being born a prince if something can not thus be done to restore what has been lost?
13183When will he be with us?
13183Where is your master?
13183Who and what art thou?
13183Who are ye who thus dare to intrude upon me here? 13183 Who are you?"
13183Who art thou then, fair maid?
13183Who has seen Sir James Audley-- gallant Sir James?
13183Who has seen him since his gallant charge that made all men hold their breath with wonder? 13183 Who is the Black Visor?"
13183Who then will help or counsel us?
13183Why canst thou not give me help or counsel of some sort? 13183 Why do we remain shut up within these walls, when there is so much work to be done in the world?
13183Why had I not thought of it before? 13183 Why has he threatened thee?"
13183Why shouldst thou come to me to know, good lad?
13183Why, Betty-- and you also, Andrew-- what do ye here?
13183Wilt thou see his warrant? 13183 Wouldst have me enter the cloister, then?"
13183------------------------------------------------------------------------"Mistress Joan Vavasour, boy?
13183After a few moments, which seemed hours to her from the concentrated thought pressed into them, she spoke quietly and calmly:"Of whom speak you, Sir?
13183Am I not thy true knight?
13183And Roger, too, who has ever been at my side in all times of strife and danger, how came he to be sundered from me likewise?
13183And did not Mistress Joan say that the secret way into Basildene was hard by the fish ponds on the west side of the house?
13183And does not God see?
13183And how came it that our uncle found you out?
13183And if so, why didst thou leave him?
13183And might it not be possible that this knowledge had come to the ears of the present owner?
13183And might not his be instrumental in ridding her for ever of her hateful foe?
13183And now that Father Paul was back, might it not be possible that this could be done?
13183And now that we are approaching to man''s estate, shall we not think of these things?
13183And now what should they do?
13183And sure in a good cause men must fight with all their might and main?
13183And then he heard a voice speaking in accents of authority: where had he heard that voice before?
13183And what have I seen instead?
13183And when William had retired, she turned to Bridget with shining eyes, and said:"Ah, did I not always say that John was the truest knight of them all?
13183And where could that shelter be found?
13183And where is Margot?
13183And who is this fair youth with thee?
13183And who may stand before the Lord?
13183And why should princes stand idle when the world is all in arms?
13183And yet how could she frame her lips aright to tell him she had loved him ere he had asked her love?
13183And yet if all were dead, as indeed there could be small doubt from their perfect stillness and rigidity, why did none come forth to bury them?
13183And yet was such an one as this to be trusted?
13183Are there not those living beneath the shelter of Basildene who must be suffering under the curse that wicked man is like to bring upon it?
13183Are they not both called Peter?"
13183Are they to be left to the mercy of one whose soul is sold to Satan?"
13183Are we not all clad in leather, and armed to repulse the savage attacks of the wild boar of the woods?
13183Are we the sons of peasants?
13183Are we then to hide our heads here till the snows of age gather upon them?
13183Are we, of all our race, to live and die obscure, unknown?
13183Are you devils in human guise, or hapless prisoners like myself?
13183Are your parents dead likewise?"
13183Art sure thou art not mocking me?"
13183Art thou about to try to rescue the boy?
13183Art thou not pledged to a high and holy service?
13183Brother, when shall the attempt be made?"
13183Brother, wilt thou wander forth with me once again-- thou and I, and a few picked men, in case of peril by the way, to visit Saut by stealth?
13183Brothers of Brocas, will ye go with me?"
13183But if not there, whither could Raymond be transported?
13183But the rest-- ah, how can I tell it?
13183But was this Basildene?
13183But what can we soldiers do?
13183But what is life to one who is sold and bound over, body and soul, to the powers of darkness?"
13183But where are our good friends and rescuers?
13183But which of yon gay knights would have done what he is doing now?
13183But, Brother, canst thou not recall that other name she spoke so many a time and oft as she lay a- dying?
13183But, Raymond, thou wilt join the Prince''s standard; thou wilt march with us to strike a blow for England''s honour and glory?
13183By what right is he a guest beneath this so hospitable roof?"
13183Can it be that it was of Basildene she was thinking all that time?
13183Can they take me hence?
13183Canst thou be content for ever with this tame life with honest Jean and Margot at the mill?
13183Canst thou not say something?
13183Canst thou remember her last charge to us?"
13183Canst thou remember our dead mother?
13183Canst thou remember the story, Raymond?
13183Could a princess have been better served or tended than you have been ever since you came beneath my humble roof?
13183Could it be possible that Roger really saw and heard all these things?
13183Could it be that he had come to set her free?
13183Could that be true of our gallant King and his brave English soldiers?"
13183Did I not hear him, or his huge companion, give some order for my capture to his men before their blades struck me down?
13183Did he know where they lay by day?
13183Did he understand?
13183Did his guilty soul know itself to be standing on the verge of eternity?
13183Did not I say of thee that thou wouldst quickly win thy knighthood''s spurs?
13183Did not Sir Galahad leave all else to seek after the Holy Grail?
13183Did not one or more of their number feel that there was yet another and a holier quest asked of a true knight?
13183Do I indeed belong to them?
13183Do I not know them both?
13183Do they not all say that in old days it was a De Brocas, not a Navailles, that ruled there?
13183Do they not call me the man of books-- of dreams-- of fancies?"
13183Does their blood run in our veins?
13183Dost thou know aught of it?"
13183Dost thou remember?
13183Dost thou think it was of Basildene she spoke?"
13183Dost understand, girl, that the Black Death is at our very doors-- that all our people are flying from us?
13183Everybody asking news of her?
13183For their sakes, Gaston, ought we not to do all in our power to make good our rights?
13183Gaston raised his head quickly, and asked:"What trouble?"
13183Gaston, canst thou remember the day when she called us to her, and joined our hands together, and spoke of us as''the twin brothers of Basildene''?
13183Go they must, of that he felt well assured; but where?
13183Good John, thou surely dost not call it a wicked thing to fight beneath the banner of our noble King when he goes forth upon his wars?"
13183Had all fled and left them to their fate?
13183Had he not vowed himself to her service?
13183Had he, after all, made a grand mistake?
13183Had not Raymond placed himself almost under vow to win back his mother''s lost inheritance?
13183Had our proud uncles refused to receive her?"
13183Had she not spoken of having slipped once into his cell to breathe in his ear a word of hope?
13183Had she not taught them the language of her country, and begged them never to forget it?
13183Had their two foes joined together to strive to win all at one blow?
13183Had they not been taught from infancy that a great future lay before them?
13183Had they not told him in the old home how wondrous like to her he was growing?
13183Has his fame reached as far as thy Gascon home?"
13183Has it been told to you the cruel wrong that I have suffered?"
13183Has it not been kept from him ever since by that hostile brood of Navailles, whom all men hate for their cruelty and oppression?
13183Has the time yet come to speak?
13183Hast heard, boy, of the great King Arthur of whom men wrote and sung in days gone by?
13183Hast thou aught to say ere thou yieldest dominion to me?"
13183Hast thou been with Father Paul?
13183Hast thou indeed come from the spirit world to mock me in my last moments?
13183Hast thou no feeling for thy mother?
13183Hast thou not thought of it, too, by day, and dreamed of it by night?
13183Hast thou seen the old places-- the old faces?
13183Hast thou told him what I myself know?
13183Have I not proved that a hundred times ere now?
13183Have I not said that I would never we d him, that I would die first?
13183Have they dared to lay a finger upon him yet?"
13183Have we not others to think of in this thing?
13183Have ye no wish for better things than ye have won under the banner of Navailles?"
13183He had doubtless made it worth my master''s while to sell him to him; and what could I do?
13183He looked at Raymond, and said:"Thinkest thou that this sickness will surely come this way?"
13183He looks little more than a shadow himself; and he has had Roger to care for of late, since he fell ill.""But Roger is recovering?"
13183He might be capable of robbing a dead body, but how would he have known that the token was given by her?
13183Her father will not strive to sunder us more?"
13183His word is pledged before the Prince; and moreover thou art the lord of Basildene and its treasure, and what more did he ever desire?
13183Holy Father, wilt thou not counsel me?
13183How came Peter Sanghurst to speak of her as having a lover?
13183How came he to know?
13183How came it, then, that his men- at- arms made such an error as to set upon me?
13183How can he dare to hate you now?"
13183How canst thou speak as though no fame or glory would be thine?"
13183How come you here alone, save for your old nurse?
13183How comes it that thou, being, as it seems, a native of these parts, speakest so well a strange language?"
13183How comes it that thou, by thine own account but just home from Gascony, shouldst be likewise asking the same question?"
13183How comes that about?"
13183How could we receive a reward which we could not worthily wear?
13183How else could he have so possessed him that even his own father could not restrain him from going back to the dread slavery once again?"
13183How had it gone with him since the sickness had appeared here?
13183How had the change come about?
13183How have they come?
13183How say ye, my gallant comrades?
13183How were he and his brother worthily to support the offered rank?
13183I find thee here at Basildene; but sure thou art not the wife of him who calls himself its lord?"
13183I shall not come to find thee the bride of another?"
13183I tried everything I knew; but who would listen to me?
13183I trow ye be able to speak the French tongue likewise, since ye be so ready with our foreign English?"
13183I trust the cowardly and treacherous beasts have done you no injury?"
13183If I go, wilt thou go with me?
13183If Sanghurst had sought him with professions of contrition, might he not have easily been believed?
13183If he had been but two days earlier in coming forward, might he not have been in time to do a work of mercy and charity even here?
13183If it be not peaceably surrendered, what think ye will happen next?
13183If no man holds us back, why go we not forth tomorrow?"
13183If war did indeed entail such ghastly horrors and frightful sufferings, could it be that glorious thing that all men loved to call it?
13183In truth I like it not myself; but what would you?
13183Is he, too, dead?"
13183Is it not for us to free it from the curse of such pollution?
13183Is it not so, good Father?"
13183Is it not so?"
13183Is it only those who yield themselves up to the life of the cloister who may choose aright and see with open eyes?
13183Is it some unhealed wound?"
13183Is it understood?
13183Is it-- can it be thou?"
13183Is not Basildene ours?
13183Is not that child one of the oppressed and wronged that it is the duty of a true servant of the old chivalry to rescue at all costs?
13183Is that thought new in the heart of man?
13183It is as a cousin I am to receive and treat thee?
13183It seemed scarce possible, and yet what besides could have brought him hither?
13183John, dost thou know that Gaston and I each wear about our neck the halves of a charm our mother hung there in our infancy?
13183Know ye not how to make way for your betters?
13183Knowest thou if this be true?"
13183Knowest thou not that his royal son is within a few leagues of this very spot?"
13183Knowest thou that we are scarce ten miles( as they measure distance here in England) from Basildene?"
13183Knowest thou to whom it belongs?"
13183Knowest thou where she is?"
13183Knowest thou who it be?"
13183Leaving those lands which thou, my son, hast never seen, and coming hither to France and England, what do we find?
13183Look at him as he lies there: is that face of one that can look upon the deeds of these vile days and not suffer keenest pain?
13183Might it not be the very life''s work he had longed after, to fulfil his mother''s dying behest and make himself master of Basildene again?
13183Might not even that passing glimpse at such a time have been enough to subjugate his heart?
13183Might they not augur from this a happy and prosperous career till their aim and object was accomplished?
13183Must I give up my sword and turn monk ere I may call myself a son of Heaven?"
13183My brothers in arms, are you ready to follow me?
13183Nay, what can even the King do?
13183Never seen?
13183Now doth thy spirit quail?
13183Now what sayest thou?
13183O Raymond, was that bad man there?"
13183Oh, could it be that some rumour had reached his ears?
13183Oh, how did you come?
13183Oh, why did I not understand before?
13183Plain indeed was it that Raymond had been carried off; but whither?
13183Raymond waited till the old man had finished his railing, and then he asked gently:"Had you then a son?
13183Raymond, knowest thou where is this Basildene?"
13183Raymond, thou wilt not forget me?"
13183Raymond, thou wilt not forget thy vow?
13183Rememberest thou not the boat moored in the lake to carry the fugitive across to the other side, and the oars so muffled that none might hear?
13183Say not men that scarce a dog or a cat remains alive in the city, and that unless the citizens prey one upon the other, all must shortly perish?"
13183Say, gentlemen, what is the desert of this miscreant?
13183See ye that, and know ye what it means when the King of France unfurls it?
13183Seest thou yon black mark, that looks no larger than my hand?
13183Shall I bid them remain where they are?
13183Shall I have them ready at break of day tomorrow?
13183Shall I make known your presence to him?"
13183Shall I not owe to thee a debt I know not how to pay?
13183Shall I put you in the way of the other house, Sir?
13183Shall I tell thee what my thought-- my dream of thee was like?"
13183Shall the eagles fail for lack of courage when the prey is almost within sight?"
13183Shall the old Tower of Saut defy English arms?
13183Shall we not be ready when the time comes?"
13183Shall we own ourselves beaten by any Sieur de Navailles?"
13183Shall we snatch from the clutches of this devilish old man the boy whose story we have heard today?
13183Since he has gone, what is there for me to live for?
13183Spoke she not of a lost heritage which it behoved us to recover?
13183Suppose Raymond had been removed from that upper prison?
13183Suppose he had succumbed either to the cruelty of his foes or to the fever resulting from his injuries received on the day of the battle?
13183Suppose those two remorseless men suspected her to be concerned in the flight of their victim, what form might not their vengeance take?
13183Sure she looked to us to recover yon fortress as our father once meant to do?"
13183Sure thou canst not have watched beside thy brother''s sickbed all these long weeks without knowing somewhat of the trouble in his mind?"
13183Surely the King will not let his fair province of Gascony be wrested from his hand without striking a blow in its defence in person?"
13183Surely thou wilt not leave him in the hour of peril; thou wilt march beneath his banner and take thy share of the peril and the glory?"
13183Sweet Lady, wouldst thou look coldly upon me did I come with banners unfurled and men in arms against him thou callest thine uncle?
13183Tell me now, good youths, who and whence are ye?
13183Tell me what I may do to make amends ere I die?
13183Tell me, have I come in time?
13183Tell me, have you no sweet word of welcome for him whose heart you hold between those fair hands, to do with it what you will?"
13183Tell me, may I hope some day to win thy love?"
13183Tell me, thinkest thou it was some dream?
13183Tell me, was she not the fairest, the loveliest object thine eyes had ever looked upon, saving of course( to thee) thine own beauteous lady?"
13183Tell me, why this sudden change of plan?
13183Their quest need not be the less exalted--""But what is that quest to be?"
13183Then Raymond spoke again:"But what was it that happened?
13183Then who more fit than his own son to go forth now-- at once, by stealth if need be-- upon such a quest of peril and glory?
13183They call us eaglets in sooth; and do eaglets rest for ever in their mountain eyry?
13183Think ye that he will spare you if ye arouse him to anger by impotent resistance?
13183Think you that I threaten in vain?
13183Think you that this imprisonment in which you think fit to keep me is like to win my heart?"
13183Think you that those peerless charms could ever have been hidden beneath the dress of a peasant lad?
13183Think you that your evil deeds have not been whispered in mine ear?
13183Thinkest thou that they fear God or man?
13183Thou canst swim?"
13183Thou hast not forgotten our old dreams?
13183Thou hast not turned monk or friar?"
13183Thou hast seen her, hast thou not?
13183Thou knowest all the story; have we not read it often together?
13183Thou wilt ever be true to that higher life that we have spoken of so oft together?"
13183Thou wilt not send me forth without a word of promise of another meeting?
13183Thou wouldst rather see me lying dead at thy feet than the helpless captive of the Sanghurst, as else I must surely be?"
13183Thus equipped, need we fear these human wild beasts?
13183To England?
13183To fight and to vanquish is thy lot, young warrior; but what is his?
13183Uncle, may we not set forth this very day-- this same night?"
13183Was he the victim of an illusion?
13183Was he wounded in the fight, or when they surrounded him and carried him off captive?"
13183Was it all guesswork?
13183Was it an error?
13183Was it as such that he then came to thee?"
13183Was it hard to give to him the answer he asked?
13183Was it his fancy that beneath the long habit of the monk he caught the glimpse of some shining weapon?
13183Was it not the ancient Castle of Saut-- his own inheritance, as he had been brought up to call it?
13183Was it on the glorious field of Crecy that thou receivedst some hurt?
13183Was it, could it be possible, that he was concerned in this capture?
13183Was not our mother rightful owner of Basildene?
13183Was not that the beginning of an enmity which had never been altogether laid to sleep?
13183Was not the first step of their wild dream safely and prosperously accomplished?
13183Was not their mother an Englishwoman?
13183Was there not something familiar in the muffled sound of that English voice?
13183Was there something of covert scorn in the tones of her cold voice?
13183Was this all part of a preconcerted and diabolical plot against her happiness?
13183Was this some terrible dream come to his disordered brain?
13183We are not of the peasant stock; why must we live the peasant life?
13183Were He here with us today upon earth, where should we find Him now?
13183Were feats of arms alone enough for them?
13183Were they not bound for the great King''s Court-- for the assembly of the Round Table, of which, as it seemed, all men were now talking?
13183Were they not habited like the servants of an English knight-- their swords by their sides( if need be), their master''s badge upon their sleeves?
13183What ails thee, John, that thou art so troubled?"
13183What are we to do?
13183What but that could our mother''s words have boded?
13183What can I do for you, brave comrades, to show the gratitude of a King''s son for all your faithful service?"
13183What chance have two striplings like ourselves against so strong a foe?
13183What could she have known or cared for Saut and its domain?
13183What could we do against power such as his?
13183What did it all mean?
13183What did this mean?
13183What doom shall we award him as the recompense of his past life?"
13183What dost thou think of that?"
13183What golden possibilities did not open out before them?
13183What good to me is forgiveness, if my child will be doomed to hellfire for evermore?
13183What had Raymond told him from time to time about the enmity of this man?
13183What had been done to it?
13183What had scions of the great house of the De Brocas to do with a humble miller of Gascony?
13183What has befallen thee in these wars?
13183What have they done to thee, my brother?"
13183What hearest thou?
13183What if the very moment I reached my brother his jailer should come to him, and the alarm be given through the Castle ere we could get him thence?"
13183What is all this tumult I hear in mine own halls?
13183What is it?
13183What is their business?
13183What is there to see?"
13183What is to become of us?
13183What may he not have done ere I can stop his false mouth?
13183What meant my good uncle by that?
13183What more likely than that Sanghurst had found a wife, and that his old affection for Joan would by now be a thing of the past?
13183What sayest thou?
13183What seest thou?
13183What think ye to gain by defying the great King of England?
13183What was I doing last, before this strange thing befell me?"
13183What was my boy''s soul to him?
13183What wouldst thou do thyself in my place?"
13183What, believest thou not?
13183When can I see thee again to tell thee how we have fared?"
13183When her story was done, he opened his eyes and said:"Where is Raymond?"
13183Where be they?
13183Where hast thou come from?"
13183Where is he now?"
13183Where is my brother?"
13183Where is the poverty, the lowliness, the meekness, the chastity of the sons of the Church?
13183Where is thy master?
13183Where may his Majesty be found?"
13183Where may we seek them?
13183Where should I be?"
13183Where was the vaunted chivalry of its greatest champion, if such scenes could be enacted almost under his very eyes?
13183Where were they found?
13183Which shall it be-- a De Brocas or a Navailles?"
13183Whither should they go; and what should be the object of the lives-- the new lives of purpose and resolve which had awakened within them?
13183Who art thou, brave boy?
13183Who brought them in?
13183Who can have a better right to avert such curse than we-- its rightful lords?"
13183Who could tell what the next few hours might bring forth?
13183Who has carried him off?"
13183Who is he, good Sir James?"
13183Who is it that lies dead and cold?"
13183Who is this lady of whom thy brother speaks so oft?"
13183Who may abide the day of His visitation?"
13183Who of all of them would stand forth fearless and brave in the teeth of this far deadlier peril than men ever face upon the battlefield?
13183Who should save him but I?
13183Who will be the first to lead the charge, and ride on to victory?"
13183Whose servant doth thy master call himself?
13183Whose treachery?
13183Why art thou here now?"
13183Why did not the survivors come forth from their homes and bury the dead out of their sight?
13183Why gazest thou thus from the casement?
13183Why have we lingered here so long, when we might have been up and doing years ago?"
13183Why might not he go with him and see his foster- mother and Father Anselm again?
13183Why wert thou not with me that day when we vanquished the navy of proud Spain?
13183Why, Joan, why answerest thou not?
13183Why, after so glorious a victory, does he not make himself master of all France?"
13183Will He not recompense to His people their sins?
13183Will not a curse light upon the very house itself if these dark deeds go on within its walls?
13183Wilt thou go with me?
13183Wilt thou not take upon thy lips that dying thief''s petition, and cry''Lord, remember me;''or this prayer,''Lord, be merciful to me, a sinner''?"
13183With the very key of France in our hands, what may not England accomplish?
13183Would not Gaston raise heaven and earth to discover his brother?
13183Would not the rescue of yon wretched boy from the evil thraldom of that wicked sorcerer be such a task as that?
13183Would they not see their own kinsmen, feel their way perhaps to future friendship with those who bore their own name?
13183Wouldst have us all stay shut up in this miserable place to die together?"
13183Wouldst know it thyself?
13183Ye know that of late days brave knights and gentlemen have been mustering to our Court from all parts of this land?
13183Yet did not Jonathan and his armour bearer fall unawares upon a host and put them to flight?
13183Yet how came it that Raymond should confide his dying message to his sworn and most deadly foe?
13183Yet how many of them felt this and understood the truer, deeper meaning of chivalry?
13183Yet what could he do to save her and to win her until he could make an organized attack upon Saut, armed with full authority from England''s King?
13183Yet where else could Peter Sanghurst carry a captive?
13183You have spoken in parables so far; tell me more plainly, what is your name and kindred?"
13183You think that because we were rivals for your hand we were enemies, too?
13183and did any woman stand more in need of her lover''s strong arm than the daughter of Sir Hugh Vavasour?
13183and did the wretched man feel the horror of great darkness infolding him already?
13183and do I not know that ye have both chosen worthily and well?"
13183and hast thou not proved ere now how nobly thou canst keep that pledge?"
13183and how could Peter Sanghurst have become possessed of it unless his tale were true?
13183and is it not a fair heritage?"
13183and what could that future be but the winning back of their old ancestral lands and rights?
13183and whence comest thou?
13183and where is thy brother Gaston, whom thou wentest forth to seek?
13183and where the faithful Roger, whose name thou hast spoken many times before?"
13183art thou safe?"
13183asked Joan breathlessly;"what hast thou done to raise his ire?"
13183can it in very truth be thou?"
13183cried Gaston in amaze--"the maiden whom Peter Sanghurst is to we d?
13183dost thou heed?
13183dost thou not know Roger again?
13183have I not warned you to do him no hurt?
13183he asked quickly;"and if English, surely a friend to thy countrymen?"
13183he exclaimed, in a voice from which the dreary cadence had now given place to a clearer, firmer ring:"is it of that you ask, young sirs?
13183he questioned;"what mean you, reverend Sir?
13183how about that boasted honour of thine?
13183how comest thou here?"
13183is all around but vanity?"
13183is he then dead?"
13183mused John thoughtfully; and looking up at Raymond, he said quickly,"Did he know who and what thou wert?"
13183nay, not for the glory-- that may or may not be ours-- but upon a mission of chivalrous service to the weak and helpless?
13183nay, now, what other thoughts?"
13183now dost thou hope for succour from without?
13183or did this tall, shadowy figure stand indeed before him?
13183or dost thou fear to fall again under the sway of his evil mind, or his son''s, if thou puttest foot within the halls of Basildene again?"
13183or shall I bring them hither to you beside the water?"
13183or those exploits undertaken in the cause of the helpless or oppressed, great and noble as these must ever be?
13183or was it but the fantasy of delirium?
13183said Gaston eagerly;"then, in very sooth, there is something to tell?"
13183was there not something in the words and tone that sounded like a cruel sneer?
13183what can have brought him hither?"
13183what can it mean?
13183what have I heard?
13183what likeness does he bear?"
13183what my agony?
13183what sort of warning?"
13183what spell had been at work?
12449''Who shall deliver me from the body of this death?'' 12449 A changeling, sir?"
12449Ah, Peregrine, could an imp of evil brook to lie hidden in the Holy Hole behind the very altar?
12449Ah, you loved him, and he loved you, il mio tesorino?
12449And Mr. Sedley-- did he see it?
12449And after his return from his travels?
12449And all at Fareham, are they well?
12449And did they?
12449And do n''t he turn and writhe when there''s prayers?
12449And for what reason?
12449And has all been well since?
12449And have you forgotten that it is only just over Midsummer? 12449 And none of those monsieur has employed in our escape answer to that description?"
12449And now what shall I do? 12449 And seen Father Giverlai?"
12449And the gentleman-- her husband?
12449And the other fellow? 12449 And then saddled it on young Oakshott?"
12449And there is something else? 12449 And this is your little daughter, madam, Peregrine''s kind playmate?
12449And this? 12449 And what may that something further be?
12449And what then becomes of the hopes of a lifetime?
12449And what would you have in me? 12449 And wherefore did you not?
12449And wherefore not, Jonadab?
12449And you are dazzled with all these gewgaws of Court life, no doubt?
12449And you had none of my warnings? 12449 And you have seen him and talked to him, Anne?
12449And you thought concealing the matter according to that oath? 12449 Any more?"
12449Archfield?
12449Are you alive?
12449Are you long from Scotland, sir?
12449Are you sure? 12449 Are you yet one of us?"
12449Are_ you_ sure? 12449 But are you not afraid to stay alone?"
12449But if-- if-- sir, the marriage were distasteful to him, could it be for the happiness and welfare of either?
12449But is he really a changeling? 12449 But oh, sir, is it true that French dolls have real hair that will curl?"
12449But surely you have not always to follow on this round?
12449But tell me, Anne, is it true that poor Master Oliver Oakshott is dead of smallpox?
12449But the fairy, the fairy, how did she change the babe?
12449But this apparition, this shape-- or whatever it is? 12449 But what is it?"
12449But what will they do to us?
12449But where are we going?
12449But who is he that mademoiselle can be so certain?
12449But why should she run away as if he had the plague, and set the foolish lads to fight?
12449But why?
12449But you are troth- plight to him, and secretly?
12449By whom, madam, may I ask?
12449Can it be because of his unhallowed grave?
12449Can mademoiselle assure me of that? 12449 Can you endure me after all I left you to bear?"
12449Can you give an instance of displeasure manifested by the prisoner at the deceased?
12449Can you suppose I could accept one who would leave an innocent man to suffer?
12449Can you swear to them? 12449 Continue, Mistress Woodford; what did she tell you?"
12449Could not? 12449 Crimson cheeks, my young mistress?
12449D''ye know what our name means?
12449Dear me, Miss Woodford, are n''t you afraid? 12449 Did Davy never see a mischievous boy fidgeting at prayers?"
12449Did any words pass between him and the deceased?
12449Did he show any displeasure?
12449Did my uncle know anything of me? 12449 Did others see him then?"
12449Did they ever come to high words before you?
12449Did you desire spiritual consolations? 12449 Did you ever see this ghost?"
12449Did you know of her purpose?
12449Did you see any one else?
12449Did you see it?
12449Did your grandmother bring you up?
12449Didst hear what I said?
12449Do I not feel grateful to you, and like and honour you better than ever I could have thought?
12449Do I understand that these were apparitions of the deceased?
12449Do n''t you believe that it is quite as hard for me as for them that he should have gone off to fight those dreadful blood- thirsty Turks? 12449 Do you know what he did to Mistress Martha Browning, his own cousin, you know, who lives at Emsworth with her aunt?
12449Do you love the fellow?
12449Do you mean that for an insult, sir?
12449Do you think I could sit still and see_ her_ put to the torture?
12449Do you think a broken- hearted victim would be able to do you any good?
12449Does your ladyship think Her Majesty will require me any longer?
12449Eh? 12449 For refusing to say live and let live?"
12449For what?
12449French and Frenchifications are all the rage nowadays, but what will your father say to your science, my young spark?
12449Had he run away to sea?
12449Has any one seen him, or fancied so?
12449Have they got in?
12449Have you ever sought his confidence?
12449Have you heard of him since?
12449Have you seen anything?
12449He did?
12449He is Dr. Ken-- eh? 12449 He is none the better for country air then?"
12449Him or his likeness,said Mrs. Oakshott,"my poor brother- in- law, Peregrine Oakshott; you remember him, sir?
12449Him?
12449How about his purse, then?
12449How can I then, consistently with my duty and loyalty, swear to this William and Mary as my lawful sovereigns? 12449 How can aught triumph but hatred and disgust where I am pinned down?
12449How can he have the insolence?
12449How can you prattle in that mischievous way-- after what Lady Strickland said, too? 12449 How could I need?
12449How could he know him when he was stolen?
12449How could you bring him in?
12449How deep is the vault?
12449How did you know that I was here?
12449How did you work on the unhappy young man to bring about this blessed change?
12449How is it with the other son? 12449 How long ago was this, sir?"
12449How old were you at the time?
12449How soon was the answer to be given?
12449I am to scream from the windows to Mr. Shaw,she said; but what good will that do if the priests and the Frenchmen have strangled me?
12449I could not possibly do so; could I, sir?
12449I meant to ask-- Shall a priest be sent for? 12449 I think he has cast his spell on Anne,"added Charles,"or how can she stand up for him?"
12449I-- or my double?
12449In Elf- land?
12449Indeed, sir, we have met with no cause of complaint,said Charles, adding as if casually,"What is that church?"
12449Is He kind?
12449Is it because he is so ugly and mischievous and rude? 12449 Is it so deep?"
12449Is not she to be a great heiress?
12449Is she hurt? 12449 Is she never coming?"
12449Is that Peregrine Oakshott?
12449Is that all the truth?
12449Is that his calling?
12449Is the chapel here a Popish one?
12449Is the other alive?
12449Is there a Hampshire magistrate here to sign a warrant?
12449Know you not''tis rank treason to discrown our sacred Majesty, far more to dishevel or destroy our locks? 12449 Little one, little one,"said James, you are sorry for poor Richard, eh?"
12449Madam, how could I break mine oath to your Majesty and His Royal Highness?
12449May I ask mademoiselle to describe him?
12449May I ask what took a young gentlewoman out at such an untimely hour? 12449 May I beg you to describe it?"
12449May I trouble you to permit me to mount you again?
12449Mean it? 12449 Mistress Anne, how much do you mean by that?
12449Monsieur veut savoir si mademoiselle va bien?
12449My dear child, did you really believe that old nurse''s tale?
12449My dear child, where did you hear all this?
12449My lord,here Simon Harcourt ventured,"may I ask, is this regular?"
12449My uncle-- my dear uncle-- is he well?
12449No better? 12449 No one has guessed, have they?"
12449No one would think the poor child fourteen years old,he observed,"yet did he not speak of a second seven?"
12449No; what is it?
12449Nor Winchester?
12449Not in France?
12449O Miss Woodford, how shall we make them believe we are good Protestants?
12449Of murder or manslaughter?
12449Oh no? 12449 Oh, but why not offer thirty?"
12449Oh, may it not be that he came to implore you to have pity, and join the Church, where you could intercede and offer the Holy Sacrifice for him?
12449Oh, sir, is that your purpose?
12449Oh, sir, where are you taking me?
12449Oh, would not the unquiet spirit be at rest till it was avenged?
12449Our generation might not see it,said Naomi;"but who can be safe when a Popish king can override law?
12449Ralph, what is this Master Philip tells me?
12449Saw him? 12449 Seven?"
12449Sir, I believe you are the younger brother?
12449Sir, what does it all mean? 12449 Smugglers, eh?
12449So you were there? 12449 Tell me, do you know where Her Highness is?"
12449Tenderly!--that''s the way they speak of me at Oakwood, eh? 12449 That is, when you were boys?"
12449The Archfield boy? 12449 The boy has been complaining to you?
12449The old King?
12449Then is this new King going to persecute as in the old times you talk of? 12449 Then it is true?"
12449Then so it was you saved the dear little Philip?
12449Then, brother Cowper, do you wish to proceed with the case?
12449Then-- can this be the Island?
12449There are the sentinels at the foot of the stairs, and what should reach us here?
12449Torture? 12449 Useful?"
12449Wages, poor lad, what should he do with them? 12449 Was the prisoner present?"
12449Was there any dispute over it?
12449Well, who?
12449Were there any remains of clothes with them?
12449Were you there?
12449What became of him?
12449What brought them there-- either of them?
12449What can I think, ma''am? 12449 What can that be?"
12449What did he say?
12449What do I care? 12449 What do you call a neighbourly way?"
12449What does a man on horseback want with opening gates?
12449What has he seen?
12449What has you, my poor child?
12449What have we here?
12449What have you done with her, madam?
12449What imp is there?
12449What is it, then? 12449 What is that dark building above?"
12449What is the matter of a few guineas to us?
12449What is there to be afraid of?
12449What led you to examine the vault?
12449What made folks think of looking into the vault?
12449What more?
12449What says my sister Oakshott?
12449What was it, then, on his cousin''s part?
12449What was it? 12449 What was that, nurse?"
12449What was that?
12449What was the height of the deceased?
12449What was the length of the skeleton?
12449What was the opprobrium?
12449What were your brother''s political opinions?
12449What would you say, madam?
12449What''s the poor lady to do while her cavalier flies over and leaves her in the lurch?
12449What, you have your dismissal?
12449What? 12449 What?
12449What? 12449 When did he thus speak to you, Anne?"
12449When?
12449When?
12449Where am I?
12449Where were you going?
12449Where''s he going? 12449 Where''s your ship?"
12449Where?
12449Where?
12449White wine, or red, did you say, Anne, and a little ginger?
12449Whither was she taken?
12449Who brought him?
12449Who durst possess you with so foolish and profane a falsehood?
12449Who saw him last? 12449 Who told you so, Robert?"
12449Who walks?
12449Who? 12449 Who?
12449Whom, Phil; I do n''t understand-- the boy or the elf?
12449Whom?
12449Why did not you say so before?
12449Why do they think so?
12449Why not?
12449Why, sir, would not my entering such a house do you harm at Court, and lessen your chance of preferment?
12449Why, what would be the good of hurting us?
12449Will nothing content you but royal game?
12449Will you not help me, good madam?
12449Would it be better if she did?
12449Would it not be the most dangerous for you?
12449Would you think him likely to be an emissary to Holland?
12449Ye''ve found it no better than the husks that the swine did eat, eh? 12449 You are not a Catholic?"
12449You bear witness that only the most innocent civility ever passed between your brother and my poor young wife?
12449You care?
12449You do?
12449You remember Dawson, do n''t you, little Woodie, as we used to call you, and how she used to rate us when we were children if we soiled our frocks?
12449You will take her?
12449You_ really_ think, Ralph--?
12449''What country come ye frae?''
12449A cupola with a light to be seen out at sea?
12449Abbe?
12449After helping him in, Charles turned and demanded--"Where is she, the young gentlewoman, Miss Woodford?"
12449All well?
12449And did Charles''s fate hang upon hers?
12449And if it were indeed a spirit, why should it visit her?
12449And now what shall I do?
12449And on Anne''s reply,"Yes, my Lord,"spoken with the clear ring of anguish, the judge added--"Was the prisoner present?"
12449And what do you think his good wife is about?
12449And what must not his agony of remorse be?
12449And what then?
12449And when they were alone at bed- time the girl said--"Is it not droll?
12449And when?"
12449And who is with him?"
12449And why at that time in the morning?"
12449And would it be in her power to make even such terms as these?
12449And your own life?
12449Anne shook her head, but was glad to ask,"And what means the bell that is ringing now?"
12449Anne took the required pledge, and ventured to ask,"Shall I say anything for you to your father?"
12449Any spy?"
12449Archfield?"
12449Archfield?"
12449Are n''t those his claws?
12449Are you hurt?
12449Are you rolled up like a very Russian bear?
12449Are you sure of it, Wren?"
12449Are your sure?"
12449As she went Peregrine muttered,"Is that a prayer?
12449Be not you ashamed of yourself to be lying in wait for godly folk on their way to prayers?
12449But if such were the case, what would become of Charles?
12449But see-- who is coming through the Slype?"
12449But why did Nana cry when he talked of papa''s coming home?
12449But why do you call it Pere-- Penny Grim?"
12449But, my dear, have you no coloured clothes?
12449CHAPTER XXI: EXILE"''Oh, who are ye, young man?''
12449CHAPTER XXIII: FRENCH LEAVE"When ye gang awa, Jamie, Far across the sea, laddie, When ye gang to Germanie What will ye send to me, laddie?"
12449CHAPTER XXVIII: THE DISCLOSURE"He looked about as one betrayed, What hath he done, what promise made?
12449Can a banished one have strayed hither?
12449Can not you see how unworthy it would be in me, and how it would grieve my uncle that I should have done such a thing?"
12449Can you bestow it safely?''
12449Can you come to the hall, or shall I bring Lord Cutts to you?
12449Can you continue now?
12449Can you not see what you will do for me?"
12449Can you speak French?"
12449Charles and Anne looked at each other, and the former said,"Again?"
12449Could it be?
12449Could she be in France?
12449Could she have been seized by mistake for some heiress?
12449Could that smuggling yacht have anything to do with them?
12449Could they expect me to run in and accuse her?
12449Could you not have stopped him?"
12449Did I hear my wife''s voice?"
12449Did I hear that you had the little Woodford here?
12449Did I not hear that your attention made your mother''s life happier?"
12449Did Lucy think herself utterly forgotten and cast aside, receiving no word or message from her friend?
12449Did Madame de Bellaise divine something?
12449Did he come to gather mouse- ear too?"
12449Did he really wish not to pursue the topic which had brought Peregrine from his grave?
12449Did the thought of poor Peregrine dwell on his mind as it did upon hers?
12449Did you ever before see your brother''s bones?"
12449Did you expect to meet any one?"
12449Did you know he was going on this terrible enterprise?"
12449Did you, Miss Woodford?"
12449Do not speak of it, Lucy?
12449Do you know it?"
12449Do you know whether his father has heard?"
12449Do you know, he is growing a salad, and learning Latin, all for papa?"
12449Do you not know that he is a changeling?"
12449Do you not say so, sister?"
12449Do you remember his sending my brother and cousin adrift in the boat?"
12449Do you remember how your mother came to teach mine to brew it, and how she forgave me for being graceless enough to squirt at her?"
12449Eh, sweetheart?
12449Eh?"
12449Fellowes?"
12449Frightened were you by that rude fellow?
12449Had Charles returned, and did that secret press upon him as it did upon her?
12449Had it come to protest against the scheme she had begun to indulge in on that very night of all nights, or had it merely been her imagination?
12449Had she seen it before?
12449Has any one here a flask of wine to revive him?"
12449Has he never had one of mine?"
12449Has my fine lady met a spider or a cow?"
12449Has she been ill?"
12449Have I said too much?"
12449Have you a brother, young mistress?"
12449Have you ever seen him, mamma?"
12449Have you no pity upon a miserable wretch, who will be dragged down to his doom without your helping hand?"
12449Have you seen anything?"
12449He called stoning poultry a trifle, so of what was he not capable?
12449He shuffled with his feet, and after two or three"Ehs?"
12449He spoke of it once as we rode together--""And you could not be so false as to tell him you did not love him?
12449He was like one distracted, and said it must be hidden, or it would be the death of his wife and his mother, and what could I do?"
12449His heavy tread caused a moan, and when he said"What, Perry, how now?"
12449His mother meant to be kind, but expected too much from one so brought up, and his wife-- what could be done for her?
12449How came she here?"
12449How can you bear it, madame?"
12449How could I stop Her Highness from speaking?
12449How could it be?"
12449How could they make poor Charley marry that foolish ill- mannered little creature?"
12449How did you come?"
12449How does he look, and is he well?"
12449How is he-- Mr. Oakshott, I mean?"
12449How shall I ever face Danvers again such a figure?
12449How shall I thank you?"
12449How will he bear it, sir?"
12449How would it affect that other prisoner at Winchester?
12449I ask her, if the changeling be gone, where is the true Peregrine?
12449I see you have a new ring on your finger; but how could I suppose you would encourage an only son thus to leave his parents?"
12449I sent him to perfect his studies at Leyden, but shall I confess it to you?
12449I will not misuse it; but what will it bring me?
12449I would give myself to books, as my uncle counselled, but what think you?
12449If any sight were ever that of a spirit, it was what we saw at Douai; besides, how should he come thither, a born and bred Whig and Puritan?"
12449If he be gone in quest of his uncle, I wonder what will become of him?
12449If he came, how should she meet him?
12449If so, would you go into banishment with the felon, Anne, love?
12449In a moment Mrs. Royer turned,"Gone, did you say?
12449In so low a tone that she had to bend over him:"Do you know how the Papists cross themselves?"
12449In whose hands?
12449Is it my husband or my son?"
12449Is it old Lee?
12449Is it too far for him, think you, Mistress Anne?"
12449Is my nephew and namesake so peevish a scapegrace?"
12449Is that all I am to be satisfied with?"
12449Is that all that holds you back?"
12449Is that shocking impish urchin whom we used to call Riquet with the tuft, older than he?"
12449Is that the watch the King gave you?"
12449Is that you, girl?"
12449Is there more that you would like to tell me?
12449It is I. Perry, do you not know me?"
12449Let me see, how many countries have you seen?"
12449Lying there; but where, then, was he?
12449Madam, is it not possible that I was never truly baptized?"
12449May I ask what was this same herb?"
12449Must I give up my sword like a prisoner of war?"
12449Must he-- must Charles suffer to save that man?
12449My Portia, why did not you take a good offer, and go with the Princess?"
12449My uncle?"
12449Naomi asked,"Then you no longer think that he ran away?"
12449Nay, but would he be thankful at being saved at the expense of his cousin''s life?
12449No, you could not?"
12449Not your father?
12449Now, what could be more likely than that some of them got hold of poor Perry?
12449Nurse, do you think those he belongs to can do Charley any harm if he angers them?"
12449O joy, What doth she look on?
12449Of course he spited the poor young chap, and how could the fact be denied when the poor ghost had come back to ask for his blood?
12449Of what use am I now?"
12449Oh, will you not make the trial?"
12449Or am I only a rustic beauty after all, who will be nobody elsewhere?"
12449Or was it a dream?
12449Ought you not to save a fellow- creature from distraction and destruction?
12449Peregrine, will you not recollect my mother, and what she would think?
12449Poor boy, would that verse be his first step to prayer and deliverance from his own too real enemy?
12449Presently a figure approached, and Charles Archfield''s voice said,"Is that you, Anne?
12449Several gentlemen had come up, and as Peregrine stirred, some wine was held to his lips, and he presently asked in a faint voice,"Is this fairyland?"
12449Shall it be owned?
12449She is guarded now by her strict attendance on my infirmity, but when I am gone how will it be?"
12449She nodded her be- curled head, and said,"You can keep a secret, little Woodie?"
12449She raised her eyes to the open window, and what did she behold in the moonlight streaming full upon the great tree rose below?
12449She trembled exceedingly, and would have looked into the vault, with,"Are you quite sure?"
12449She was about to tell him what she had seen, when he began,"There is one thing in this world that would sweeten and renew my life-- and that?"
12449Should she not be justified in simply keeping silence?
12449Sir Philip, after swallowing the wine, succeeded in saying,"Have you been at home?"
12449Sober and staid, eh?
12449Some one at the door said,"May I come in?"
12449Such expressions were no proof that gentle blood was lacking, but whose object could her abduction be-- her, a penniless dependent?
12449Surely there is no promise between you?"
12449Tell me, Phil dear, how or where?"
12449That I am here now is no thanks to him, and why should I give up mine for the sake of him who meant to make an end of me?"
12449The Queen looked at her wistfully, asking--"Is he not like the King?"
12449The boy drew a long breath, but still asked,"Was Penny Grim a little baby?"
12449The prisoner?
12449The question is, What is there to contend therewith?
12449The question now is, shall I tell him what is in store for him?"
12449The two old men quickly came back together, and Dr. Woodford began,"How now, niece, are you telling us dreams?"
12449Then with a strange smile, half sweetness, half the contortion of a mortal pang, the dying man said,"May she kiss me once?"
12449Then, what horror was it that she beheld?
12449There can be no doubt now that--""What, sweet Anne?"
12449Think, what can be his love to mine?
12449This was too much for Anne, who managed to say,"Who was his laundress?"
12449Three of them, eh?
12449Traders in French brandy?"
12449Was it a wicked urchin come to steal me, Nana?"
12449Was it over, or would Sedley begin to torture her, when so much was in his favour?
12449Was it the dream again?"
12449Was it true that it was a lover of hers, and that she had seen him killed in a duel on her account?
12449Was not Mr. Horncastle chaplain when you were born?
12449Was that vision of last night substantial or the work of her exhausted brain?
12449Was there any especial animosity?"
12449Was there any pursuit?"
12449Were they going to send me to the plantations?"
12449Were you ever so much grieved before at having let him have the mastery?"
12449What are you sorry to leave?"
12449What call had that great lout, with a wife of his own too, to come thrusting between us?
12449What could I have done?
12449What could she do?
12449What do you mean?"
12449What do you mean?"
12449What do you say?"
12449What has been heard of it?"
12449What have you done?"
12449What is it that you propose?"
12449What is it?"
12449What is this nonsense?"
12449What is this?"
12449What is to be done, my son?"
12449What is your name?"
12449What next?
12449What next?"
12449What put it into Master Philip''s head?
12449What say you, Anne, who have seen him; did he treat his case as that of an abdicated prince?"
12449What should a gentleman have to do with private murders and robberies?
12449What should she do?
12449What was I till you and your mother took pity on the wild imp?
12449What was he like?"
12449What was it?
12449What was the hour?"
12449What were they doing with her?
12449What will they say?"
12449What would Bishop Ken say?
12449What would she think of the way in which you are trying to gain me?"
12449What would the visitor think of him?
12449What''s that?"
12449What''s the use of loving him?
12449What''s thy name, master wag?"
12449What''s your oath to a mere pretender?
12449What, did you know, sir?"
12449What, do n''t you know me?"
12449Where am I?"
12449Where are the father''s mouth and nose, The mother''s eyes as black as sloes?
12449Where did you get it, Miss Woodford?"
12449Where is he wounded?"
12449Where is it?
12449Where were you?"
12449Where were you?"
12449Where would be the good?
12449Where''s Sir Philip?"
12449Where''s the Doctor?
12449Where''s your mother?"
12449Which will you prefer?"
12449Who was it?
12449Who writes?"
12449Why did no one come forward and explain?"
12449Why did she not send you to me?
12449Why did they scold me, Nana?
12449Why did you run from him?"
12449Why do you laugh and make that face, Peregrine?
12449Why do you laugh, Miss Woodford?"
12449Why not the same now?
12449Why should he appear except to us?"
12449Why should he never look whether I were dead or alive, but fling me headlong into that pit?"
12449Why, Anne, child, how now?"
12449Will these gentlemen think fit to be of the party?"
12449Will you drink tea?
12449Will you give him a cake and make friends?"
12449Will you keep the secret, Anne, always my friend?
12449Will you stroke him?
12449Will you tell no one?"
12449With what intent?
12449With whom was she comparing him?
12449Would Father Crump speak of her as one in a state of inevitable ignorance to be expiated in the invisible world?
12449Would her life rise out of the mist?
12449Would it be possible to alter her destination?
12449Yet enough feeling was betrayed to make Naomi whisper at night,"Sweet Nan, are you not some one else''s sweet?"
12449Yet how shall I deal with what seems laid on me?
12449Yet how should she, when she had promised silence to young Archfield?
12449Yet if it were true, and prayers and masses could aid her?
12449You are Catholic?"
12449You are certain?"
12449You are not a Catholic-- eh?"
12449You are sorry, are you not?"
12449You can not know--""I know,"he interrupted;"but why should I be solicitous for his life?
12449You do not care for him, I trust?"
12449You have not left your heart in the country, eh?"
12449You have read his late Majesty''s paper?"
12449You have seen my black boy Hans?"
12449You remember the night of the bonfire for the Bishops''acquittal, Miss Woodford?"
12449You remember, madam, your uncle bantering him about French ladies and their finery, asking whose token it was, and how black my father looked?
12449You''ll be there, sir, and you, Anne?"
12449am I going home?"
12449and where?"
12449and you have always done what you liked, my little madam?"
12449can you endure me thus after all?"
12449cried the King, spying up into the tree, while his attendant drew his sword,"How now?"
12449do you believe that there are apparitions?"
12449do you not relish the proposal?"
12449exclaimed Anne,"is the Bishop of Bath and Wells here?"
12449have I not wrestled in prayer for my poor boy?"
12449have you our licence to waylay our loyal subjects?"
12449he cried,"but must that be?"
12449he said hastily;"why have you kept it back so long and let an innocent man get into trouble?"
12449how can you?
12449how could they do such a thing?
12449is it so?
12449muttered Charles, dashing forward with"How now, madam?
12449not Piers Pigwiggin?"
12449oh, how can he?
12449said Mr. Harcourt;"what does this mean?"
12449was again the call; and Lady Archfield muttering,"Was there ever such an impatient poppet?"
12449was asking in an affirmative tone, as if to clench the former evidence,"And did you ever see the deceased again?"
12449weak, weak moment, to what end Can such a vain oblation tend?"
12449what d''ye mean?
12449what harm can it do?
12449what hath she perceived?
12449what have I done?
12449what means the elf?"
12449what shall I do?"
12449when was it?"
12449where are you?"
12449where is he?
12449whom hath she perceived?"
12449why should they hate us so?"
12449why would he?
12449will he have written an answer to my own letter to him?"
12449will you not wait a moment?"
12449you were not in that wicked plot?"
53345A father?
53345Ai n''t you ashamed of yourself, now?
53345Ai n''t you ashamed to carry such a lean wallet as that there?
53345And did n''t he come back?
53345And how is your mother to- day?
53345And how much will it be?
53345And now, where are you going to take me?
53345And what do you do?
53345And will you play with me?
53345And you do n''t have anything to do?
53345And you will come to see me some time, auntie?
53345And you will insist on having your own way ever after?
53345And you will take me to Europe?
53345And you would desert me for a richer suitor?
53345And you''ll try to get rich, for my sake?
53345Any of our old friends?
53345Anything gone wrong?
53345Anything more?
53345Are the drawers locked?
53345Are the vests all right?
53345Are we in New York?
53345Are we most there?
53345Are you an only child, or have you brothers and sisters?
53345Are you at it again?
53345Are you at leisure for an hour or two?
53345Are you careful of money?
53345Are you carrying me to where you live, Dan?
53345Are you engaged for the galop?
53345Are you engaged to look after this room? 53345 Are you engaged, Miss Rogers?"
53345Are you her friend?
53345Are you in urgent need of two dollars, my boy?
53345Are you not afraid I shall never pay you, sir?
53345Are you on the square?
53345Are you running errands?
53345Are you sure it was my child?
53345Are you sure of it?
53345Are you sure of this?
53345Are you the janitor?
53345Are you willing to resign in his favor?
53345Are_ you_ to be invited?
53345Bill, I suppose, is your husband?
53345But does her aunt know that we live in such a poor place?
53345But how shall I know where to go, Nancy?
53345But you wo n''t be guided by them?
53345But you''ve got the money, Dan?
53345But, mother, suppose I should fall sick? 53345 But, sir, you do n''t mean all this for me?"
53345Ca n''t I?
53345Ca n''t you play something else?
53345Ca n''t you send her a message not to expect you? 53345 Can I go to bed?"
53345Can he have had anything to do with the abduction of Althea?
53345Can it be Hartley?
53345Can we move in to- day?
53345Can you give this lady a room?
53345Can you help me as far as that with my luggage?
53345Can you hold your tongue?
53345Can you open a safe?
53345Can you sing, my boy?
53345Can you tell me anything about her?
53345Can you tell me what sort of a looking man it was that took her away?
53345Come along, will you?
53345Could n''t he, though? 53345 Did he give his name?"
53345Did he say whether his family was well?
53345Did he succeed?
53345Did he?
53345Did n''t I fool the ould woman good?
53345Did n''t I tell you he was impudent?
53345Did n''t he tell you we were coming to- night?
53345Did n''t he turn out the poor Donovans on a cold day last winter? 53345 Did n''t you call me a young feller?"
53345Did n''t you know it was disgraceful to be poor?
53345Did n''t you see that it was bad?
53345Did n''t you, now? 53345 Did she tell you so?"
53345Did the old lady leave it all away from you, then? 53345 Did they let you over the ferry free, then?"
53345Did we have the right combination?
53345Did you find out where he went?
53345Did you follow her?
53345Did you hear him doing it?
53345Did you hear the little girl say anything?
53345Did you lock the door when you came away, mother?
53345Did you make these vests yourself?
53345Did you see Althea carried away?
53345Did you see anything of a little girl?
53345Did you speak to him, Dan?
53345Did you speak to me, Garibaldi?
53345Did you succeed well in your sales to- day, Dan?
53345Do I? 53345 Do n''t you care to sell this suit?"
53345Do n''t you feel well, Dan? 53345 Do n''t_ you_ know where she lives?"
53345Do they suit you, Dan?
53345Do you come here to threaten me, John Hartley?
53345Do you doubt that?
53345Do you know him, sir?
53345Do you know that boy?
53345Do you know that this boy whom you have engaged is a common newsboy?
53345Do you know the number?
53345Do you know the wharf of the Cunard steamers?
53345Do you know what you remind me of?
53345Do you know where it is?
53345Do you know where she lives?
53345Do you know where she went?
53345Do you know why I take you into my employ?
53345Do you like Dan?
53345Do you mean to insult me, madam?
53345Do you mean to insult me?
53345Do you mean to say that you bought that suit and paid for it?
53345Do you often fall behind when rent day comes, Dan?
53345Do you really mean so?
53345Do you really mean to give me five dollars, sir?
53345Do you remember her?
53345Do you remember your mother, Althea?
53345Do you see that, now?
53345Do you suspect any one, sir?
53345Do you think the fellow knew the piece was bad?
53345Do you think you would like to be going with me?
53345Do you think your mother would enjoy the society of a little girl?
53345Do you want a job, my man?
53345Do you want something in our line to- day?
53345Do you want to make some money, Johnny?
53345Do you wish to remain in your place,she asked,"or would you like to obtain a better education first?"
53345Does he beat you?
53345Does he treat?
53345Does it?
53345Does the ability to dance make a gentleman, Dan?
53345Does your anxiety to see Althea arise from parental affection?
53345Does your mother live there?
53345Even if old Gripp pays for the vests?
53345Excuse me, Tom, but do you think such expressions suitable for such an occasion as this?
53345For whom has she been working?
53345For yourself?
53345Gentlemen, will you take notice of this? 53345 Gold?"
53345Has Althea been stopping there, Dan?
53345Has Donovan betrayed me?
53345Has he found it out?
53345Has he?
53345Has she got any money?
53345Has she got money?
53345Has your mother any experience?
53345Have n''t you been run over, then?
53345Have n''t you sold as many bouquets as usual?
53345Have you a mother living?
53345Have you a papa?
53345Have you any coats and vests that will fit this young gentleman?
53345Have you any directions to give me, sir, as to how to go to work?
53345Have you any idea what became of the defaulter?
53345Have you any jewelry about you?
53345Have you any more to tell?
53345Have you been extravagant and run up bills, Dan?
53345Have you been here long?
53345Have you been in New York for a week past?
53345Have you been lonely, mother?
53345Have you been lucky in stocks?
53345Have you ever heard of this book- keeper since?
53345Have you found out what you want to know?
53345Have you got the money?
53345Have you had any supper?
53345Have you matches with you?
53345Have you seen anything of Mike?
53345He is the book- keeper, is he not?
53345How are you, Grab?
53345How are you, Terence?
53345How can I help it, Dan? 53345 How can I thank you for your kindness, sir?"
53345How can they afford to pay ten cents for riding?
53345How can you be spared from your business?
53345How did it happen, Mike, that you took the Jersey Ferry to Brooklyn?
53345How did it happen? 53345 How did mamma get hurt?"
53345How did she look? 53345 How did they suspect?"
53345How did you find it out, then?
53345How did you find out?
53345How did you get shut up there?
53345How did you happen to be coming across the ferry?
53345How do the girls know how he dances?
53345How do you account for it? 53345 How do you like it?"
53345How happened you to be there?
53345How in the duse does Dan Mordaunt know that girl?
53345How is that?
53345How is your health? 53345 How long ago did this happen?"
53345How long did you stay?
53345How many bouquets had you sold?
53345How many papers have you sold to- day, my boy?
53345How many vests are there?
53345How much did you earn as a newsboy?
53345How much do you want for your rooms?
53345How much is it?
53345How much now did he pay for vest- making?
53345How much?
53345How old are you?
53345How old is Dan?
53345How old is the crathur?
53345How so? 53345 How was he dressed?"
53345How will you have it?
53345How?
53345How?
53345I need n''t ask if you have a good mother?
53345I say, Bill,said Mike, suddenly,"how much did your wife hear of our plans last night?"
53345I suppose Mr. Rogers wishes you to supply him with an evening paper?
53345I suppose you are poor?
53345I thought you did n''t care for music, Virginia?
53345I wonder where he''s going?
53345I wonder whether Shorty would n''t lend it to me?
53345If Dan should prove unsatisfactory, would you try my nephew?
53345Is Mike in?
53345Is Miss Conway at home?
53345Is Miss Conway at home?
53345Is Mr. Rogers in?
53345Is he-- badly hurt?
53345Is it Mr. Talbot you mean?
53345Is it far away?
53345Is it far off?
53345Is it for making vests?
53345Is it gone, Dan?
53345Is it probable that the man who carried away Althea would give the right direction so that it could be overheard by a third party? 53345 Is it you, Bill?"
53345Is it you, Dan?
53345Is it, indeed? 53345 Is it?"
53345Is mamma very much hurt?
53345Is n''t it?
53345Is n''t the work done and delivered?
53345Is she in England?
53345Is she in London?
53345Is she much hurt?
53345Is she nice?
53345Is she your mamma?
53345Is she your vife?
53345Is that a bargain?
53345Is that so?
53345Is there anything more for me to do?
53345Is there money in it?
53345Is this the way he looked?
53345Is this your final answer?
53345Is your aunt rich?
53345Is your mother living?
53345Is your name Dan?
53345Is your wife at home, Hugh?
53345It is a little better than selling papers in front of the Astor House, is n''t it, Dan?
53345It is some time since we met, is it not? 53345 Joseph,"said he,"have we any vests ready for making?"
53345Look here, boy,said the landlord, savagely,"do you know what I am tempted to do?"
53345Look here, old man, who engineered this thing?
53345Look here,said he;"come over to the next table, will you?"
53345Margaret,she said, coldly,"will you show this gentleman out?"
53345May I beg to apologize for constraining you to cross the Atlantic?
53345May I give a part of it to my mother?
53345May I go out into the street?
53345May I go with you, mamma?
53345May I see the child, madam?
53345May I see them?
53345Mrs. Donovan,( by this time she was on her feet, looking on in a dazed sort of way),"is not this our little Katy?"
53345Must I stay here all the time?
53345No, she has n''t, or how could she send for you?
53345No, what is it?
53345Of course,she said;"is n''t that right?"
53345Of whom are you speaking, Julia?
53345Oh, Dan, how could you?
53345Oh, have you?
53345Probably she resembles her father?
53345Probably you live in a poor place?
53345Shall I buy any evening papers?
53345Shall I do up the clothes?
53345Shall I give you a five- dollar bill, or small bills?
53345Shall I put them up?
53345Shall I sing''Viva Garibaldi?''
53345Shall I take it back to the bank, sir?
53345Shall I tell my aunt?
53345Shall we go down?
53345Shall we go now, madam?
53345Shure, Hugh, who is it you''re bringin''here?
53345So she went away in a carriage, Nancy?
53345So that''s your game, my young chicken, is it?
53345So you gave him forty- five cents in good money, Fanny?
53345So you would rob your daughter, John Hartley?
53345Son of Lawrence Mordaunt?
53345Suppose I decline to let you have it?
53345Suppose that the conditions are fulfilled, Virginia?
53345Suppose this is impossible?
53345Tell me one thing, Virginia-- you love me, do n''t you?
53345That''s a lively city, is n''t it, sir?
53345Then how are you going to take Terence Quinn to the theater to- night?
53345Then how can she stay even one night in this poor place?
53345Then may I have the honor?
53345Then she did n''t like Gripp?
53345Then she will be my mother?
53345Then what''s the matter? 53345 Then why did n''t you say so?"
53345Then why do you remain? 53345 Then will you give me the pleasure?"
53345Then you feel authorized to accept the charge in your mother''s name?
53345Then you had n''t seen him before?
53345Then you have less money than when you began?
53345Then you know all about him?
53345Then, sir, can you stay away from the store to- day?
53345This is your gratitude for my trouble, is it?
53345To draw money?
53345To- night?
53345Very tall or very short?
53345Virginia, are you ready to fulfill your promise?
53345Was it a man who came to your rooms this evening?
53345Was it all the money your mother had?
53345Was it he? 53345 Was it much, Dan?"
53345Was that all?
53345We will make the grand tour?
53345Well, Dan, do you think Mr. Gripp is prepared to receive us?
53345Well, Dan, what besides?

53345Well,he asked,"have you any news?"
53345Well,said the gentleman, smiling,"how do you like it?"
53345Well,she said,"have you any news to tell me?"

53345What did you think of him?
53345What difference does it make to you? 53345 What do you call living respectably?"

53345Who to?
53345Who told you this?
53345Who would have thought that a stranger would lend me so large a sum? 53345 Why am I?"
53345Why did she go away?
53345Why did you think so?
53345Why do n''t you carry money, like a gentleman?
53345Why do n''t you know him now?
53345Why do you ask?
53345Why does n''t Dan pay him?
53345Why not?
53345Why not?
53345Why not?
53345Why not?
53345Why not?
53345Why not?

53345Why should I?
53345Why should n''t he notice my boy?
53345Why should n''t he?
53345Why should you not, John Hartley? 53345 Why will you require impossibilities of me?
53345Why, mother, what''s the matter?
53345Why, not, auntie?
53345Why, what''s up, partner?
53345Why? 53345 Why?"
53345Why?
53345Will I do, Giovanni?
53345Will I get the money, or Hugh?
53345Will he be in soon?
53345Will he place it in the safe?
53345Will it seem strange to receive fifty dollars a month for Althea''s board?
53345Will she take care of me?
53345Will that make you feel bad, Dan?
53345Will the lady go up now?
53345Will you be my brother?
53345Will you be my mother?
53345Will you be permanent?

53345Will you pay me to- night as a favor?
53345Will you pull the strap opposite the Fifth Avenue Hotel?
53345Will you shwar it?
53345Will you tell her I should like to speak with her?
53345Will your mother be glad to see me?
53345Wo n''t it interfere with you?
53345Wo n''t you come in?
53345Wo n''t you give him a trial?
53345Wo n''t you lend me, thin?
53345Would you rather sell papers or take employment with me?
53345Ye ca n''t, ca n''t ye? 53345 You are Daniel Mordaunt?"
53345You are in the employ of Barton& Rogers, are you not?
53345You are? 53345 You consent, then, to my plans?"
53345You do n''t mean to say she boards there?
53345You do n''t mean to say that you are going down into the parlor?
53345You do n''t think Mike would take it do you, Dan?
53345You do n''t want us to give''em away?
53345You mean you will look elsewhere?
53345You refuse, then, to tell me what you have done with my child?
53345You sell papers in front of the Astor House, do n''t you?
53345You will like to live with Dan, my dear?
53345You will treat him respectfully, wo n''t you, Dan?
53345You wo n''t fight with him, Dan?
53345You would n''t remember the driver?
53345You''ll take me away, wo n''t you, Dan? 53345 Your mother is n''t dead, is she?"
53345Ai n''t you ashamed to lie here in a hape before them gintlemen?"
53345Althea, do you mind stopping here just one night?
53345And what kind of trick has he played on your good mother?"
53345Any important news this afternoon?"
53345Are we most there?"
53345Are you a great eater, Althea?"
53345Are you going to live with us, Dan?"
53345Are you sick?"
53345Are you sure he is a newsboy?"
53345Are you too fine a gentleman to be seen with the likes of me?"
53345But how can I take measures to guard against loss?"
53345But must he abandon the pursuit?
53345But where is yours, Dan?"
53345But wo n''t you be doing more than your share?
53345Buy one, sir?"
53345By the way, mother, you''ve got enough money on hand to pay the rent to- morrow, have n''t you?"
53345By the way, what wages do we pay you?"
53345By whom?"
53345Ca n''t you give me a quarter to buy me some dinner?"
53345Can she sleep here?"
53345Can you call here at three o''clock this afternoon?"
53345Can you give her any work?"
53345Can you lend me two dollars till I am able to pay it?"
53345Can you, without betraying to him that he is watched, find out some information for me on these points?"
53345Carver?
53345Could you lend me five dollars?"
53345Did he see me?
53345Did you know my father?"
53345Did you observe Mr. Talbot, my book- keeper?"
53345Did you want him?"
53345Do I need to answer the question?
53345Do n''t you know everything?"
53345Do you board here?"
53345Do you doubt my word?"
53345Do you earn much money?"
53345Do you go up to Harlem every day?"
53345Do you know him?"
53345Do you know whether there''s any woman in the case?"
53345Do you know, sir, it is a week since you took me to any place of amusement?
53345Do you mean to insult me?"
53345Do you mean to starve me?"
53345Do you often take supper at the Fifth Avenue Hotel?"
53345Do you see her?"
53345Do you suppose Tom Carver would notice me, now that I am a poor newsboy?"
53345Do you think I''d speak to a fellow that does n''t want to know me?"
53345Do you think your mother would be willing to take charge of her?
53345Do you understand?"
53345Do you want a lodging?"
53345Do you want to know what I''d do if a woman raised her hand against me?"
53345Do you want to prevent the robbery, or to catch the men in the act?"
53345Do you, mother?"
53345Does n''t he dance charmingly?"
53345Does the book- keeper suspect that he is watched?"
53345Does this little girl know where you live?"
53345Donovan?"
53345Got the jaundice?"
53345Grab, if we pay you next week?"
53345Grant?"
53345Gripp?"
53345Had she a mother living?
53345Hartley?"
53345Has Gripp discharged her?"
53345Has any one been teasing you?"
53345Has business been duller than usual during the last month?"
53345Has he any good clothes?"
53345Have you a padrone?"
53345Have you a pocket- book?"
53345Have you any more to say?"
53345Have you anything to do for the next two hours?"
53345Have you come to take me away?"
53345He approached Dan, and observed, in a friendly way:"Are you in search of your little sister?"
53345He used to sit next you in school, did n''t he?"
53345How can I be a brick?
53345How could you raise so large a sum?
53345How dare you address me in such a way, you young tramp?"
53345How did he look?"
53345How did you find her, Dan?"
53345How happened it that your father failed?"
53345How long have you dealt in papers?"
53345How long is it?
53345How many vests are there?"
53345How much did that cigar cost?"
53345How much did you make?"
53345How much do you require, gentlemen?"
53345How much does he pay you for taking care of the girl?"
53345How much does she give you?"
53345How old was she?"
53345How rich must I be?"
53345How should he do it?
53345How?"
53345I hope you and your mother have not suffered?"
53345I wo n''t charge you no rint, and that''s an object in these hard times-- eh, Barney?"
53345I wonder if I can make him understand?
53345I wonder if he speculates with his own money or the firm''s?"
53345If Mr. Talbot sends me with a large check to the bank, what shall I do?"
53345If so, how could that mother voluntarily forego her child''s society?
53345If you want money, why do n''t you earn it, as I do?"
53345In what denominations shall I get the money?"
53345Is anything the matter with you?"
53345Is it a bargain?"
53345Is my daughter Althea with you?"
53345Is she sick?"
53345Is that satisfactory?"
53345Is there any quiet place, where we shall not be disturbed or overheard?"
53345Is there much money in the safe?"
53345Is there no way of getting up stairs except by passing through the bar- room?"
53345Is this little gal your sister?"
53345Is your wife-- about your size?"
53345It is n''t about the rent, is it?"
53345Just behave yourself, and we''ll give you ten dollars-- shall we, Mike?"
53345Let me see; what shall I take her?
53345Mordaunt?"
53345Mr. Grant turned back, and said, quietly:"To whom are you speaking, sir?"
53345Mr. Gripp, do I understand that you decline to pay this bill?"
53345Mr. Jackson was pleased, but he said, by way of drawing out Dan:"How do you know but I am a mean skinflint, too?"
53345Noticing his look of perplexity, Dan approached him, and said, respectfully:"Ca n''t I assist you, sir?"
53345Now will you answer my question?"
53345Now, Dan, what is your advice?"
53345Now, my lad, what do you think of my success in collecting bills?"
53345Now, what kind of a carriage was it?"
53345Observing this, the book- keeper turned and said, sharply:"Did n''t you hear?
53345Oh, by the way, who do you think I saw to- day?"
53345Oh, where are they?"
53345Rafferty?"
53345Rogers?"
53345Rogers?"
53345Rogers?"
53345Shall he make it good?"
53345Shall we have enough to pay it?
53345Shall you have the morning papers?"
53345She could not remember this woman, but was it possible that there was any connection between them?
53345Should she never, never see them?
53345So when she said,"Well, Dan?"
53345Surely you did not earn it in one forenoon?"
53345Talbot?"
53345Talbot?"
53345Talbot?"
53345Was it possible that she could be Katy Donovan, and that this red- faced woman was her mother?
53345Was it possible they could be in earnest?
53345Was there any way of escape?
53345What are yer talkin''about?"
53345What are you going to make out of it?"
53345What did he promise you?"
53345What do you say to my plan, mother?"
53345What do you say?"
53345What do you say?"
53345What do you want?"
53345What makes you think so?"
53345What should we do then?"
53345What would justify such a handsome compensation to Fanny merely to explain his absence to his mother?
53345What would my fashionable friends say?"
53345What''ll you have now?"
53345What''ll you take to drink?"
53345What''ll you take?
53345What''s the combination?"
53345What, then, are we to do?"
53345When can you come to work?"
53345When did you see Mr. Rogers last?"
53345When does the landlord come?"
53345When does your landlord call for his rent?"
53345When the meal was over she said:"Now, will you take me back to New York?"
53345When will you return?"
53345Where did you get your fiddle?"
53345Where did you leave Mike?
53345Where do you think Talbot will put the money?"
53345Where is Althea?"
53345Where is the money?"
53345Where shall I put her?"
53345Where shall we go?"
53345Where will it all end?"
53345Who can she be?"
53345Who do you think I saw in the supper- room at the Fifth Avenue?
53345Who sent you?"
53345Who told you so?"
53345Why ca n''t you drink dacent like me?
53345Why do n''t you exert yourself and win a fortune, as other people do?
53345Why do they keep_ you_ away from her?"
53345Will four dollars a week suit you?"
53345Will you bring a lawyer to me to- morrow evening?
53345Will you bring the little girl down at once?"
53345Will you clear out now?"
53345Will you take''em now?"
53345You do n''t mean to say?"
53345You''ll open the safe, will you?"
53345You''re sure you''re on the square?"
53345Your mother would be willing to teach her until such time as she may be old enough to go to school?"
53345[ Illustration:"What''s the matter with you?"
53345have you come to take me away?"
53345here, at the Fifth Avenue Hotel?"
53345how is that?"
53345interest make it amount to in a year?"
53345she gasped,"are you hurt?"
53345she said, pitifully,"must you suffer because your father is a brute?
53345what''s up?"
53345you here?"
11901A memory?
11901About the glove, too?
11901Alice,he said eagerly,"what would you say if you were not afraid to speak?"
11901Am I laughing, Aaron? 11901 Am I so different, Corp?"
11901Am I to be condemned because I can not?
11901An unhappy memory?
11901And always with me?
11901And did he tell you why she had gone?
11901And for that you will love me a little, wo n''t you? 11901 And he never will marry,"said little Elspeth, almost fiercely;"will you, Tommy?"
11901And him too, Aaron?
11901And it could not hold its meetings with the old enthusiasm, could it,she asked sweetly,"if you came back?
11901And leave me?
11901And leave me?
11901And my name?
11901And now you are apologizing to me, I understand?
11901And she still warns you against me?
11901And then did you live for a long time somewhere else?
11901And then?
11901And this is the way?
11901And when we got back to earth?
11901And would you mind asking him to come at once, Grizel?
11901And you have no more fear?
11901And you will come and see me?
11901And you wo n''t question me any more?
11901And you would not cease to love me if you could?
11901And you wrote that letter, you filled me with joy, so that you should gloat over my disappointment?
11901And you, Elspeth?
11901And your work?
11901Any feathers left, do you think, Grizel?
11901Anyone with Elspeth?
11901Are they really clever this time?
11901Are you angry with me for that?
11901Are you done?
11901Are you engaged to be married, Grizel?
11901Are you glad?
11901Are you insinuating that there are more of them?
11901Are you not?
11901Are you really glad that I love you, Grizel?
11901Are you still-- what I think you?
11901Are you trying to screen Grizel?
11901Are you wearing your goloshes?
11901At least,he said meekly,"it was courageous of me to tell you the truth in the end?"
11901Ay, you have; but since when? 11901 Because I continued to do it?"
11901Before God, is this true?
11901But I am right, am I not, Grizel?
11901But if I feel it,she said, shuddering also, yet unable to deceive herself,"what difference do I make by saying it?
11901But if they are true?
11901But need that make any difference?
11901But of what am I vain, Grizel? 11901 But the one thing you shall never do, Grizel, is to interfere with my work; I swear it, do you hear?
11901But to whom, then, is this memory painful, Grizel?
11901But was it no vulgar?
11901But we ca n''t turn back the clock, can we, Corp?
11901But what does it mean?
11901But what kind of love?
11901But what sent her,he asked eagerly,"on that journey?"
11901But what was it you cried out?
11901But who says so, Aaron? 11901 But why did you pretend to have forgotten?"
11901But why does she not know?
11901But why?
11901But you do?
11901But you know where it is?
11901But you never were as old as you are to- day, were you?
11901But you would have preferred''beloved''?
11901By the way, what is it about?
11901Ca n''t you guess where it is?
11901Can I help that?
11901Can we not be happy in the present, and leave the future to take care of itself?
11901Can you think it makes me love you less,she sobbed,"because I love him, too?
11901Cause? 11901 Could I help that?"
11901Could it have been taken out on the way here?
11901Could you not guess even that?
11901David, can I not even make you angry with me?
11901Dead?
11901Desire to marry her gone?
11901Did I never tell you of my little gods? 11901 Did I not?"
11901Did I say I was going out?
11901Did he ask you to tell me that?
11901Did he ever give you any trouble?
11901Did he say he telled me her name?
11901Did he say that? 11901 Did it seem long?"
11901Did that capacity go with the others, David?
11901Did we ever ken he was finding it, Grizel, till he did find it? 11901 Did you come here to say that to me, Grizel?"
11901Did you ever hear your own heart beat, Alice?
11901Did you go away?
11901Did you like the first words of it, Grizel?
11901Did you live here long ago?
11901Did you not know it, Grizel?
11901Did you really think your manuscript was lost?
11901Did you see me die?
11901Did you think as much of her as that?
11901Did you?
11901Do I wish I did not?
11901Do I, Gavinia?
11901Do even you grow tired of her?
11901Do n''t I?
11901Do n''t you believe me, dear?
11901Do n''t you see what it means? 11901 Do n''t you see what they will say?"
11901Do n''t you think this is all rather silly?
11901Do n''t you understand that she would stop him, though it were for no better reasons than selfish ones? 11901 Do n''t you?"
11901Do we know the truth now?
11901Do you ever rock them now when people annoy you?
11901Do you expect my face to fall at that?
11901Do you forgive me, Grizel? 11901 Do you hear it?"
11901Do you ken what is going on, man?
11901Do you know any Bett?
11901Do you know,Tommy said,"what I have told you is really at least half the truth?
11901Do you like me to think you one?
11901Do you love her, David?
11901Do you love her?
11901Do you mean that we should discourage David?
11901Do you mean that you do n''t love me?
11901Do you mean that you never cared for me?
11901Do you mean you wanted to?
11901Do you mean,she asked indignantly,"that you think he did not do it?"
11901Do you mind talking it over with me, Grizel?
11901Do you mind?
11901Do you mind?
11901Do you really think she could, Grizel?
11901Do you remember him, Grizel?
11901Do you remember the old doctor who called you his little housekeeper? 11901 Do you think I could go now?"
11901Do you think I''m just pretending they''re there?
11901Do you think him handsome?
11901Do you think me a child because I blow kisses to her?
11901Do you want it to be the same-- do you really want it? 11901 Does it look as if I thought little of you?"
11901Does she know?
11901Does she know?
11901Does she mean to her father''s house?
11901Does the man think I am in love with him?
11901Else what,he asked,"would make him hand it to me so solemn- like, and tell me to pass it on to her if he was drowned?
11901Elspeth,said Tommy,"what do you say to going north and having a sight of Thrums again?"
11901Fear of the prescription?
11901Follow whom?
11901Grizel, has it passed away altogether now?
11901Grizel,Tommy entreated her,"you know who I am, do n''t you?"
11901Grizel,he cried,"can we not be as we have been?"
11901Had you any shooting?
11901Haemorrhage into the neighbouring joint on inflammation?
11901Has Elspeth a baby?
11901Has it ever struck you,he asked,"that you are very unlike other women?"
11901Has she come back?
11901Has that story got abroad?
11901Have I hurt you?
11901Have I mentioned it?
11901Have I no cause to be angry?
11901Have you asked her?
11901Have you destroyed it?
11901Have you ever seriously wondered why I do n''t marry?
11901Have you made your peace with him?
11901Have you never had to walk me off?
11901Have you not been to see him yet?
11901Have you not one word of praise for such a splendid deed?
11901Have you not seen it yourself, Grizel?
11901Have you not seen it yourself?
11901Have you noticed,he asked awkwardly,"that I sometimes whistle?"
11901He forbids it?
11901How can she make them all up?
11901How can you be so cruel? 11901 How can you stand so still?"
11901How could she help it?
11901How could that have helped you?
11901How could you help it, rather?
11901How is that dear, darling little Agnes-- Elspeth?
11901How much self- respect do you think is left for me after to- day?
11901How the---- could you know that?
11901I admire brave men,she replied,"and he is one, is he not?"
11901I do n''t want to hurt you-- you know that; but please tell me, did you really do it? 11901 I follow you,"she replied;"but what does it matter?
11901I have known all the time, Aaron, but have I interfered?
11901I suppose she is the lady of the arbour?
11901I suppose,she said gently, to bring him out of the reverie into which he had sunk,"I suppose it happened some time ago?"
11901I think it was your baby, Corp. Did you hear it, Grizel?
11901I think so much of them that how could I stand by silently and watch them go?
11901If you do n''t know----"Is it Elspeth?
11901If you moved me?
11901In my absence?
11901In spite of the want of them?
11901Is Elspeth back?
11901Is any woman ever afraid of that?
11901Is he really happy? 11901 Is he sorry he did it?
11901Is it Sentimental Tommy still?
11901Is it a book?
11901Is it a pity for him that he married me? 11901 Is it a pity for me?
11901Is it a polite letter?
11901Is it here you want to bide?
11901Is it my money, or what? 11901 Is it not home, Grizel, when you are with me?"
11901Is it possible he is so fond of her as that?
11901Is it right, oh, is it right?
11901Is it so cold as that?
11901Is it so painful to you even to hear me say it?
11901Is it so still?
11901Is it the same love that it was? 11901 Is it true, what people are saying?"
11901Is it, Grizel?
11901Is mine the first half? 11901 Is that a scientific fact?"
11901Is there any more, David?
11901Is there any woman in the world, Grizel, with whom you would change places?
11901Is there anything between those two, do you think?
11901Is there no hope for me?
11901Is there nothing you will let me do for you, Grizel?
11901Is this chapter yours or mine?
11901Is this only pity for me, Grizel,he implored, looking into her face as if to learn his fate,"or is it love indeed?"
11901Is this your first visit?
11901Is what you have told me true, that it would help you?
11901It is all true, Alice, is it not?
11901It is not true?
11901Ladies and gentlemen,she cried,"how could I help it?"
11901Lately, Grizel?
11901May I ask what it is that my oldest friend accuses me of? 11901 May I?"
11901Mr. Sandys, you have been so good, I wonder if you would tell me her name?
11901My attempt to regain my old power over you has not been very successful, has it, David? 11901 My eyes?"
11901Need we speak of this, Grizel?
11901Never as a girl?
11901No,cried Tommy, in agony,"she''s my sister, and we''re orphans, and did you think I could have the heart to leave Elspeth behind?"
11901No; but could she?
11901Not until I wanted you to?
11901Not with me?
11901Nothing monstrous in my letting you give Elspeth them?
11901Now, am I as round as all that?
11901Obedient?
11901Of me?
11901Of what?
11901Of whom?
11901Oh, David,she exclaimed,"what else do you think your patients and I talk of when I am trying to nurse them?
11901Oh, Grizel, do you think I could find happiness apart from you for a day? 11901 Oh, Tommy, have I not told you?
11901Oh, beautiful one, are you really mine? 11901 Oh, do you care less for me now?"
11901Oh, how ever could you have found that out?
11901Oh, mother, do you see me? 11901 Oh, woman, woman, can you ask?"
11901Oh,she cried, with a movement that was a passionate caress,"do you indeed love me so much as that?
11901Or I could go with you?
11901P.S.,it said"How is Sentimental Tommy?"
11901Perhaps I ask too much, but it is this: may I keep your glove?
11901Perhaps only?
11901Pretty, are they not?
11901Rather pretty, do n''t you think?
11901Really, Grizel--"Is it not true?
11901Seriously, Grizel?
11901Shall I fling it away?
11901Shall I help you out?
11901Shall I tell you why?
11901So long as I had you, Elspeth,he said reproachfully,"was not that enough?"
11901So you and he do n''t correspond now?
11901So,said she slowly,"you are apologizing to me for not going on?"
11901Something you have seen in your paper?
11901Such as?
11901Surely not so sweet as the other, Grizel?
11901Surely you could fight against them and drive them away?
11901Tell me,she cried like a suppliant,"how have I done it?"
11901That disdainful look is you,he told her,"and I admire it more than anything in nature; and yet, Alice, and yet----""Well?"
11901The de''il tak''you,he cried,"how did you find out that?"
11901The same as what, Grizel?
11901The spirit has all gone out of him; what am I afraid of?
11901The whole o''t?
11901Then he would marry you?
11901Then why not give it up?
11901Then why say such things, Grizel?
11901Then you did not marry him, after all?
11901Then you do give me credit for a little courage?
11901Then you do really have a tiny bit of hope?
11901There has been nothing to cause it, has there?
11901There was no jouking her,said Corp."Do you mind how that used to bother you?"
11901Understand what?
11901Was it not enough for you that I should think she did it?
11901Was it not she who passed just now?
11901Was it really you?
11901Was it very sudden?
11901Was she beautiful?
11901Was that the something?
11901Was there no reason why I should not seek to discover it?
11901We shall take her away,David said, and when he and Tommy were left together he asked:"Do you see what it means?"
11901Well, where are we to send her?
11901Well, which am I?
11901Well?
11901Well?
11901Well?
11901Were you caught in the rain?
11901Were you not afraid?
11901Were you trying to walk it off?
11901What am I?
11901What are they saying?
11901What are you looking so holy about?
11901What did I say?
11901What did we see? 11901 What did you tell him?"
11901What do you mean?
11901What do you think of her?
11901What do you think of him?
11901What does that matter, if it does you harm?
11901What does that matter,she replied distressfully,"if it is true?
11901What does the world look like to you, my darling? 11901 What else could have made me come?"
11901What else could make her want to be alone with him?
11901What glove?
11901What is it to- day?
11901What is it, David?
11901What is my name?
11901What is she like?
11901What is sun? 11901 What is there monstrous,"she asked,"in your being so good to Elspeth?
11901What is to be done, Elspeth?
11901What is true?
11901What is your name?
11901What is?
11901What laddie?
11901What made you think of that?
11901What makes you say that? 11901 What makes you think that?"
11901What more, Grizel? 11901 What pleasure should she be able to sook out o''his keeping ding- ding- danging on about that woman?"
11901What shall I do to- morrow?
11901What was his name, Grizel?
11901What woman?
11901What would the bairn say if he kent I made you greet?
11901What?
11901What?
11901Whatever has come over you both?
11901When are we to see the result?
11901When that which you want has come to you, Elspeth, how can I but be glad? 11901 When was I ever afraid of you?"
11901Where did you copy this from?
11901Where is it, Alice? 11901 Where is your home?"
11901Where was it?
11901Where,cried Pym, turning over the leaves in a panic,"where is the scene in the burning house?"
11901Where?
11901Which are you doing now?
11901Which of them all is me, Grizel?
11901Who are you?
11901Who is it?
11901Who is that?
11901Who is this girl?
11901Who lives there now?
11901Who was he?
11901Who?
11901Who?
11901Whose baby was it?
11901Why are n''t you nice to me?
11901Why are you glad, Grizel?
11901Why did n''t you, Elspeth?
11901Why did n''t you?
11901Why did you not tell me when we met the other day?
11901Why did you walk as if you were lame?
11901Why do n''t you have two copies?
11901Why do n''t you laugh, Grizel?
11901Why do you call me that?
11901Why do you read this to me?
11901Why have you changed so?
11901Why have you come back?
11901Why have you told me this?
11901Why is it?
11901Why not tell him that you want it as much as he?
11901Why not?
11901Why should pretence please me?
11901Why so smart as that?
11901Why withdraw the book?
11901Why? 11901 Why?"
11901Why?
11901Why?
11901Why?
11901Why?
11901With how many tears on them?
11901Would not that please you?
11901Would you have her live if her mind remains affected?
11901Would you like to hear it?
11901Would you take her back, Gavinia,Tommy asked humbly,"if she continues to want it?"
11901Would you?
11901Yea?
11901You are just nineteen, I think?
11901You are not angry with me for writing it?
11901You are not angry with me, are you, for being almost sorry for her? 11901 You are not angry?"
11901You are not sorry, are you?
11901You are quite sure that you mean that,she might ask timidly,"and that you are not flinging away your life on me?"
11901You are sure you are happy again, Grizel? 11901 You are to call the baby Tommy?"
11901You can believe that of your Grizel?
11901You can think of no other way in which it might have disappeared?
11901You could keep something back from me, Grizel?
11901You dared to conceive that?
11901You did not even say that you would-- consult me?
11901You do know, do n''t you?
11901You do n''t follow him into the parlour?
11901You do n''t mean that it is me?
11901You do n''t mean to say that you think I am afraid of you still?
11901You do n''t really mean that?
11901You have been looking me up in the dictionary, have you, Grizel?
11901You mean some one who is dead?
11901You mean you want me to let you off?
11901You must be sorry for him?
11901You prepare the aristocracy for the stage, do n''t you?
11901You taught me, long ago, what was the right thing to say about babies, and how could I be sure it was you until I saw your arms rocking?
11901You think I am like her in appearance?
11901You think a great deal, do n''t you?
11901You took it from my bag, did you not?
11901You understand, do n''t you?
11901You-- said you would marry him, Elspeth?
11901Your Christian name, boy?
11901''Is he much changed?''
11901''Was this Thomas Sandys''s piano?''
11901''Where is your independence, Grizel?''
11901( What could it be?)
11901A member said, with a laugh,''I wonder for how long men can be together without talking gamesomely of women?''
11901A mother, they say, can never quite forget her boy-- oh, Grizel, is it true?
11901About what?
11901Afore I can get rid o''them they gie a squeak and cry,''Was that Thomas Sandys''s bed?''
11901After all, had she not been moved?
11901After all, how could she let his monstrous stupidity wound a heart protected by such a letter?
11901Ah, Aaron, do you not see that your dislike gives me the more reason only to esteem you?"
11901Ah, Grizel, why do you sit there in the cold?
11901Ah, Tommy, you bore with her with infinite patience, but did it never strike you that she kept you to the earth?
11901Ah, but was she?
11901Ah, of course he felt it, but was it quite as much to him as it was to her?
11901All gone, all shaved, and for what?
11901All memories, however sad, of loved ones become sweet, do n''t they, when we get far enough away from them?"
11901Am I a baby only, Grizel?"
11901Am I here to beg you to do it again, or to defy it?"
11901Am I not a wonder?"
11901Am I to be sent away?"
11901Am I to bring in my box?
11901An inventor?
11901And I myself am the meaner thing than the book, am I?"
11901And could you let me go?"
11901And did he really love her?
11901And do you know what she said about your dear wet eyes, Grizel?
11901And do you know why she left us so suddenly?
11901And even of these Spartans how many would have let the reward slip through their fingers rather than wound the feelings of a girl?
11901And had he really done so?
11901And he was sure it was a sprain?
11901And if it was, did there remain in him enough of humanity to give him the right to ask a little sympathy of those who can love?
11901And the other Jacobites, what of them?
11901And then he cried,"Since when has Grizel ceased to care for housekeeping?"
11901And what could he do but look at her with the wonder and the awe that come to every man who, for one moment in his life, knows a woman well?
11901And when Elspeth said the words that were so difficult to him, he wondered,"Did she say that because she knew I wished it?"
11901And when he blinked at this, she took him roughly by the arm and cried,"Wherever''s Grizel?"
11901And whose season was it?
11901And why should she not obey, when it was all a jest?
11901And yet,"she said philosophically,"I daresay you feel just the same?"
11901And"Listen,"he said, when they had sat down, crushed, by the old Cuttle Well,"do you hear anything?"
11901Are they not wet?
11901Are you glad, glad?"
11901Are you laughing at me for this?
11901Are you sorry that Grizel knew?
11901Are you sure you are not confusing me with mamma?"
11901Are you to grow weak, Grizel, as I grow strong?"
11901At first Pym''s only comment was,"It is the same old drivel as before; what more can they want?"
11901At times, is he just a weeny bit sorry?"
11901Ay, I suppose you dinna want to tell me what it is that has lichted you up again?"
11901Ay, you ken that without my telling you, but do you ken what makes me tell you now?
11901Bring her with you if you must; but do n''t you think that the nice, quiet country with the thingumbobs all in bloom would suit her best?
11901Broken your wife''s heart, have you?
11901But amanuensis?
11901But how could she love him?
11901But how had he let her know?
11901But they always insist that you are an iceberg, and am I so much to blame if that look of hauteur deceived me with the rest?
11901But was Tommy the only sufferer?
11901But was it, then, all a dream?
11901But was she?
11901But what did you do when you went home?"
11901But what was it, Grizel?
11901But what was the truth?
11901But why had she never worn it, when she wanted so much to do so, and it was hers?
11901By the way, what would she have known?
11901CHAPTER III SANDYS ON WOMAN"Can you kindly tell me the name of the book I want?"
11901Can I ever be proud of your love again?"
11901Corp, can you help me to lift my foot on to that chair?
11901Could he resist her in anything?
11901Could it be that David had proposed to her at the waterside?
11901Could she admit that the letter was unopened, and why?
11901Could she be expected to smile while her noble brother did this great deed of sacrifice?
11901Could this be he?
11901Courageous of Tommy, was it not?
11901Deprived of Gavinia''s counsel, and afraid to hurt Elspeth, he sought out the doctor and said bluntly to him,"How is it he never writes to Grizel?
11901Did David know the truth from Grizel?
11901Did Tommy chuckle when he saw David''s eyes following her?
11901Did Tommy deserve that look?
11901Did he hear anything else?
11901Did he know anything more?
11901Did he not want that?
11901Did it do anything strange when you had it there?"
11901Did you no ken he was lying on chairs?"
11901Did you not notice that I was crying?"
11901Did you notice, Alice, or was it but a fancy of my own, that when he had seen the expression on your face the sun quite slunk away?"
11901Did you try?
11901Do I hurt you, darling?"
11901Do I like your disdain, Alice, or does it make me writhe?
11901Do n''t you follow me?"
11901Do n''t you see I was doing it only to make a woman of you?
11901Do n''t you think you could say that men who have never had a sister are peculiarly gentle and considerate to women?"
11901Do we know all that Grizel had to fight?
11901Do we know all that Grizel had to fight?
11901Do you hear me, madam?
11901Do you know Mrs. McLean invited us to stay with her?
11901Do you know what it was?
11901Do you know why that look of elation had come suddenly to her face?
11901Do you know why?"
11901Do you mind how feared we used to be at that house?"
11901Do you mind o''her mother?
11901Do you mind that swear word o''his--''stroke''?
11901Do you notice how simple the wording is?
11901Do you remember how, in the old days, I sometimes danced for joy?
11901Do you remember how, when I was a child, you used to be horrified because I prayed standing?
11901Do you remember the long, lonely path between two ragged little dykes that led from the Den to the house of the Painted Lady?
11901Do you remember what she was?"
11901Do you remember what you said:''It is to save you acute pain that I want to see Corp first''?"
11901Do you remember?"
11901Do you remember?"
11901Do you see her now, ready to start?
11901Do you see her standing on tiptoe to see the last of them?
11901Do you see now why my eyes look wistful?
11901Do you see that Tommy was doing all this for Grizel and pretending to her that it was for himself?
11901Do you see that now, woman?"
11901Do you see the piano?"
11901Do you think the joy that had been lit in her heart was dead?
11901Do you think the radiance had gone from her face now?
11901Do you, David?"
11901Does it need an interpreter?
11901Does one finger of your hand plot against another?
11901Does the reader think it was love?
11901Easy- going Pym laughed, then said irritably,"Of what use could a mere boy be to me?"
11901Even when she said,"Which foot is it?"
11901Fears,"she continued, so wistfully,"that it is too beautiful to end happily?
11901Fond o''her, was he?
11901For when literature had to be judged, who could be so grim a critic as this usually lenient toper?
11901Had Corp concocted that story about her father to blind them?
11901Had ever a heart better right to expand?
11901Had he been left a fortune?
11901Had he fallen?
11901Had he hopped?
11901Had he not been sharpening his tools in this belief for years?
11901Had not Tommy taught her this?
11901Had she really been as far as London?
11901Had they quarrelled?
11901Had you no feeling for her?"
11901Has he any idea of what the story is to be about?
11901Has it ever been noticed that the proper remark does not always gain in propriety with repetition?
11901Has the shock stunned you, Tommy?
11901Have I been too cunning, or have you seen through me all the time?
11901Have they been waiting for you in the Den, Grizel, all this time?
11901Have you decided on the name?"
11901Have you found your mother''s legacy at last?
11901Have you got it here?"
11901He had been so true yesterday; oh, how could she tremble to- day?
11901He had told the truth, and if what he imagined was twenty times more real to him than what was really there, how could Tommy help it?
11901He knew it was tragic that such love as hers should be given to him, but what more could he do than he was doing?
11901He would have liked to say, in a careless voice,"Rather pretty, is n''t she?"
11901Her mother subsequently said that she understood he wrote books, and would he deposit five pounds?
11901Her nose is a little tilted, is it not?"
11901Hi, where are you, Corp?
11901His suspicions had to find vent in words:"You dinna speir wha the women- folk are?"
11901How can I answer, who love her the more only?
11901How can anyone look at me and not see you?
11901How can you be angry with me?"
11901How could Grizel do anything that would give him the right to be angry with her?
11901How could Grizel have doubted Tommy?
11901How could I give you cause?"
11901How could he think of anything but it?
11901How could she be other than glorious when there was so much to do?
11901How could she know that he was to strike her?
11901How could she wait until to- morrow?
11901How could you think otherwise?"
11901How had she contrived it?
11901How is it he is in sic a state?
11901How many men would have had the courage to wrick their foot as he had done?
11901How to inform Tommy without letting Grizel know?
11901How was Grizel to understand that he had meant nothing in particular by them?
11901I am not morbid, am I, in thinking of her still as some one apart from myself?
11901I am quite the right man to consult at such a moment, am I not?"
11901I did not know you had the same fears; I thought that perhaps they came only to women; have you had them before?
11901I have behaved since then as if that was what I meant, have I?
11901I have decided to go on with this thing because it seems best for you; but is it?
11901I look as if I had meant something worse, do I?
11901I mean, did you do it in the way we have been led to suppose?"
11901I suppose I ought not to ask your age?"
11901I wish you and David so much happiness; you wo n''t refuse it, will you?"
11901I wonder if you misread him so utterly as to believe that he thought himself something of a prize?
11901I wonder what can be the reason?"
11901I wonder what you would have done?"
11901I wonder whether any of you read it now?
11901If he reproved her, she replied meekly,"What can you expect frae a woman that doesna wear gloves?"
11901If he would not fight, why should she?
11901If hers lagged, what did it matter?
11901If she gives you everything, how can she give you more?
11901If your love makes you sorrowful, how can I be proud of it?
11901In her heart she had exulted from the first in his success, and she should have been still more glad( should she not?)
11901In saying that love, and love alone, brought you back, you are admitting, are you not, that you were talking wildly about loss of pride and honour?
11901In those first days she sometimes asked him,"Did you do it out of love, or was it pity only?"
11901Is it because you are so sure of me?"
11901Is it my book?"
11901Is it of no avail?"
11901Is it the night air that makes you shiver?"
11901Is it too much?"
11901Is not that loving her for the wrong thing?"
11901Is that because she was my mother?
11901Is that your way of saying it?
11901Is the king of the_ Penny Number_ already no more than a button that once upon a time kept Tommy''s person together?
11901Is there a finer word in the language?
11901It began in dread, but ended so joyfully, do you think Grizel grudged the dread?
11901It is an ecstasy to you, is it not, to feel that I know you so well?"
11901It is essential that you should run up to see your publisher, is it not?
11901It is not wicked, is it, to think that?"
11901It was not Margaret?
11901It was"Am I not to see it on your finger once?"
11901It will be a grim business, Gemmell, as you know, and if I am Sentimental Tommy through it all, why grudge me my comic little strut?"
11901It would be rather pitiful, would it not, if I have gone through so much for no end at all?"
11901Jerry?"
11901Loud above his voice his ashen face was speaking to her, and she cried in terror,"What is wrong?"
11901Love was their theme; but how to know what was said when between lovers it is only the loose change of conversation that gets into words?
11901May I have it, please?"
11901May we lift your head to show her your joyous face?
11901Meaning to do her a service, Tommy communicated this to her; and then, what do you think?
11901Most of them thought he was being accused of something vile, and the Dominie demanded, with a light heart,"Who is the woman?"
11901Mr. Sandys was from first to last a man of character, but why when others falter was he always so sure- footed?
11901Neither did he; but,"Why should you?
11901Now was not that good of Tommy?
11901Odd, is it not, if true, that a man should travel so far to see a lip curl up?"
11901Oh, could it be she?
11901Oh, could they not tell her where he was?
11901Oh, have you heard a voice crying,''It is too beautiful; it can never be''?"
11901Oh, how could she get through to- morrow?
11901Oh, it would even be easy to me to deceive myself; but should I do it?"
11901Oh, mother, did you hear me?
11901Oh, my love, you have done so much, will you do no more?"
11901Oh, who would be so cruel as to ask a boy to love?
11901Oh, why had he not told Elspeth at once?
11901Or Matilda?
11901Or was it Martha?
11901Perhaps she was dead?
11901Perhaps you do n''t even believe that I was Captain Ure?"
11901Result of reflection, that if the name had been mentioned to Corp, which he doubted, it began with M. Was it Mary?
11901Sandys, where are we to take her to?"
11901Sandys?"
11901Sandys?"
11901Sandys?"
11901Shall I tell you,"he said gently,"what I believe is Elspeth''s outlook exactly, just now?
11901Shall we go on?"
11901Shall we quote?
11901She asked curiously:"What did you do last night, after you left me?
11901She could say that to him, but to herself?
11901She cried in anxiety:"Have I told you, or did you find out?"
11901She had always thought that she was a nice girl, but was she?
11901She said"Womanly?"
11901She sat thus for a long time; she had so much for which to thank God, though not with her lips, for how could they keep pace with her heart?
11901She was insane, was she not?
11901Should he keep that sorrowful figure a man or turn it into a woman?
11901Should you have taken it with you, Tommy?
11901Since you took to making printed books?"
11901So my letter seemed to annoy him, did it?"
11901That was why you wanted to prevent Corp''s telling me about the glove, was it not?
11901The book, she knew, was beautiful; but it was the writer of the book she was peering for-- the Tommy she had known so well, what had he grown into?
11901Their daughters, athirst for a new sensation, thrilled at the thought,"Will he talk to us as nobly as he writes?"
11901Then why do you pretend to know?
11901Then, if he feared that she was willing to be his, it must have been because he thought she loved him?
11901There was nothing small about Tommy, was there?
11901There were a hundred or more at dinner, and they were all saying the same thing:"Where have you been to- day?"
11901They were his very words, were they no, man?"
11901This love that all his books were about-- what was it?
11901This would not bring her any sooner to him than if she waited here until to- morrow; but how could she sit still till to- morrow?
11901This, of course, did not prevent her saying, with a sob,"Wha is the woman?"
11901To- morrow, when I hear the town ringing your praises, I shall not say,''Yes, is n''t he wonderful?''
11901Tommy interrupted her:"Now what did you mean by that?"
11901Tommy was taken aback, but replied, with gentle dignity,"Do you think, Grizel, I would let that make any difference in my estimate of him?"
11901Tommy, do n''t you see?"
11901Too busy?
11901Was Grizel not as nice as she used to be?
11901Was he a knave?
11901Was he feeling to his marrow that as soon as those other two figures rounded the bend in the stream he and she would have the world to themselves?
11901Was he in great pain?
11901Was he jesting?
11901Was he quite well when he went away?
11901Was he still the same, quite the same?
11901Was he unforgivable, or was it some flaw in the making of him for which he was not responsible?
11901Was he, indeed, a monster?
11901Was it a dream only?"
11901Was it all a mistake of his?
11901Was it because he knew her so well?
11901Was it because he never tried to uncork himself?
11901Was it even make- belief?
11901Was it helplessness that man loved in woman, then?
11901Was it maidenly to bring the glove and hand it to him without a tremor?
11901Was it possible she had misjudged him?
11901Was it possible that the fear of him which the years had driven out of the girl still lived a ghost''s life to haunt the woman?
11901Was it pride that supported her in the trying hour?
11901Was it she?"
11901Was it that?
11901Was not that a feather?
11901Was she prepared to make a man of him at the cost of his possible love?
11901Was she to be blamed for thinking so meanly of Tommy?
11901Was that any reason why he should not feel sorry for Aaron?
11901Was there ever a kind I couldna manage?"
11901Well, what did it matter to her?
11901Well, what more did the little inquisitor want to know?"
11901Well, why do n''t you tell her, Tommy?
11901What are her own troubles to a woman when there is something to do for the man she loves?
11901What are we to do with it now?"
11901What did come out this month?
11901What did he hear?
11901What did we do?"
11901What did you hear?"
11901What do they say?
11901What do you say to pitying instead of cursing him?
11901What else could have made you dislocate your ankle rather than admit that you had been rather silly?"
11901What garred them telegraph for him?
11901What had Aaron been doing with Tommy?
11901What has come over you?
11901What is genius?
11901What is it they do next in Pym and even more expensive authors?
11901What is rain?"
11901What is that called?"
11901What right had I, of all people, to expect a love so rare and beautiful as yours to last?
11901What shall I do to make you love me?
11901What shall we say?
11901What she jumped to was the vital question, Who was the woman?
11901What was Lady Pippinworth beside this glorious woman?
11901What was her strange attraction?
11901What was his name?"
11901What was it in women that made men love them?
11901What was the individuality behind the work?
11901What was this Grizel was saying?
11901What was this dreadful thing?
11901What were all her mockings but a beckoning to him to come on?
11901What you were once willing to do for love, will you do for pity now?"
11901Whaur''s the woman that could help it?"
11901When I saw you coming to meet me half- way-- oh, Grizel, tell me that you were doing that?"
11901When anything so tremendous happened as the meeting of these two, how could they find words at once?
11901When did it happen?
11901When he stood still and listened he could hear the friends of his youth at play, and they seemed to be calling:"Are you coming, Corp?
11901When it was steady again,"You did not say that, did you?"
11901When?
11901Where are the words you want to torment me with?
11901Where does yours begin?"
11901Where?"
11901Wherever is she?
11901Who are you, that talks of going to him as your right?
11901Who said that Tommy could not love?
11901Who would have believed it?"
11901Who would have expected to meet her here?
11901Why are you so blind?"
11901Why did she pause?
11901Why did you always love him, you who saw into him so well and demanded so much of men?
11901Why did you not prevent him?"
11901Why do n''t you scratch and struggle for the last time?
11901Why does not Corp come back?"
11901Why does she leave Gavinia''s blue hearth this evening, and seek the solitary Den?
11901Why had she come?
11901Why had she gone off to London without telling anyone?
11901Why have you grown so quiet, Alice?
11901Will you be my wife?"
11901Will you take charge of what may be left of it?
11901Will you take it back to him?"
11901Will you tell her, man, or will I?"
11901Wo n''t you bear with me for a little longer?"
11901Would Grizel call and be friendly?
11901Would you like to make the woman unhappy, Tommy?
11901Would you like to stop now?"
11901Yes, of course he is happy when he is writing; but is he quite contented at other times?
11901Yes, she knew he did, but how could he?
11901Yet she went on briskly as if he had told her something:"Am I detaining you?
11901You are not angry with me for speaking of her, are you?
11901You are not angry with us, are you, Elspeth?
11901You are not pretending in order to please me?"
11901You had run away without paying your rent, was it?
11901You love me, my peerless Alice, do n''t you?
11901You were his little housekeeper; do n''t you remember?
11901You were sure she could not, but if she could!--had that thought never made you flap your wings?
11901You will love me at last, wo n''t you?"
11901You will not be less grateful than a country boy?
11901a senseless remark to a man whom it was bothering still-- or shall we say to a boy?
11901and what should I do to- morrow?
11901and which was the first time, and the second, and the third?
11901cried Pym,"what sort of a boy is this?"
11901does no one remember Pym for himself?
11901he cried reproachfully, and then in a husky voice:"Can you really think so badly of me as that?"
11901he demanded,"or do you no ken?
11901he said,"why do you look at me in that way?"
11901roared Pym,"are you married?"
11901was one that he could dodge, as yet; but suppose Mrs. Jerry told his dear Elspeth of what had happened?
11901what can have happened?"
11901what did you hear?"
11901what do you think, Grizel?"
11901what had taken her to London?
11901what was her damnable coldness compared to the love of Grizel?
11901where had the ladies heard that name before?
11901who wants them to be human?
11901why had she sent that telegram?
11901why had that frightened look come into her eyes?
11901will you never understand how absolutely all of her a woman''s love can be?
11901you have even been tinkering with my heroine''s personal appearance; what is this you have been doing to her nose?"
34494A big bamboo?
34494A pocket- handkerchief Union- jack?
34494AM I GOING MAD?
34494Afraid? 34494 After what has been said, then,"said Stan sadly,"it will not be safe to pull down these chests?"
34494All ready?
34494All? 34494 Am I to be turned into a Guy Fawkes?"
34494And because you want to send me where I shall be safe?
34494And do you think I could be so bloodthirsty?
34494And fight?
34494And for want of decent help and companionship, I''m to make the best of you?
34494And is it all beautiful?
34494And pray why?
34494And so you ran away-- eh?
34494And so you set sail and got out of the way?
34494And stop at hotels of a night?
34494And then, I suppose, after being kicked for getting tipsy on_ samshu_, the men never drink any more?
34494And we''ll forgive him-- eh?
34494And what about barricading the two doors?
34494And what about fire?
34494And what is that?
34494And what would you say?
34494And what''s that, uncle?
34494And what''s the good of your knowing when you wo n''t be able to tell us?
34494And who were the people?
34494And you have tried to bind it up?
34494And you too, Uncle Jeff?
34494And you want me to go for the police?
34494And you will write to me, father?
34494And you''ll do your best for the sake of those who would be ready to encourage you if they were here, for our sake, and for your own?
34494Are n''t you hungry?
34494Are the enemy upon us, then?
34494Are we fit to meet such an onslaught as they will make?
34494Are we likely to see any pirates up the river here?
34494Are we saved?
34494Are you all coming too, uncle?
34494Are you going to shoot him?
34494Are you sure?
34494Are you wide awake enough now, my lad? 34494 Awfully, sir,"said the man; and then meaningly,"Did n''t you see the crows?"
34494Bad news?
34494Bandage? 34494 Beginning to think it will be too much of a good thing?"
34494Blackened a bit? 34494 Bury you?
34494But I say, if they come, how will they attack?
34494But a great many did come in?
34494But are we going to sail right on up the river like this?
34494But ca n''t I go and fetch help, father-- uncle?
34494But do n''t you understand? 34494 But do n''t you want your dinner?"
34494But even if I was laughing, what right have you to kick against it? 34494 But had n''t we better fill up our belts first, sir, with cartridges?"
34494But have you bandaged the place well?
34494But how far away are these people, Wing?
34494But is n''t this the last, sir?
34494But look; what''s that smoke?
34494But suppose a burning pot did happen to fall into an open chest of cartridges,said Stan,"what would happen?"
34494But they had seen the_ hong_?
34494But us-- your nephew-- escape?
34494But we shall find the land journey no worse-- there will be no discharged soldiers wandering about ready to interfere with us?
34494But what about sending down to Nang Ti for a native doctor?
34494But what about us, uncle?
34494But what about your silk?
34494But what are they doing now? 34494 But what for?"
34494But what will become of the boat?
34494But where is Wing?
34494But where is he?
34494But why did n''t they use the stink- pots before?
34494But why should they take all that trouble for nothing?
34494But you are sure that he is dead?
34494But you do n''t think so now?
34494But you have a good many Chinese at work for you here; do n''t you ever feel afraid of them rising against you and the English clerks?
34494But you wo n''t give in?
34494But you''ll be well prepared in case they do come again?
34494But you''ll send a report to my father and uncle, so that they can lay the matter before the Consul?
34494But you''ve brought them now?
34494CAN YOU USE A SWORD?
34494Ca n''t we have a big bamboo up here, sir?
34494Ca n''t you see that I''m in a hurry?
34494Can he speak English?
34494Can you find your way, Stan?
34494Can you see anything with the glass?
34494Can you use a sword, Stan?
34494Cellar? 34494 Certainly; but where?"
34494Come back like the crows?
34494Come?
34494Coming to bed?
34494Could be done? 34494 Could it be done?"
34494Could n''t you send it to market under another name?
34494Could they be pirates?
34494Dead?
34494Dead?
34494Did he eat it?
34494Did he say anything about leaving us in the lurch last night?
34494Did n''t think it was so late?
34494Did that hurt much?
34494Did you visit all the six posts?
34494Dlive allee''way? 34494 Do I understand you to mean that you will stop with us and fight it out?"
34494Do I, my boy? 34494 Do I?"
34494Do n''t you think you had better come in and have something to eat, uncle?
34494Do you hear there, squire?
34494Do you hear there?
34494Do you know who did it?
34494Do you mean it, in spite of all I have said?
34494Do you mean to come down here again?
34494Do you mean you think the pirates will come back and attack?
34494Do you think he is right?
34494Do you want to bastinado your comrade?
34494Do you want to be hacked to pieces?
34494Do you want to turn a brave resistance into a panic?
34494Does he?
34494Does n''t the captain know we are to stop there?
34494Does that hurt very much?
34494Does that mean shake hands? 34494 Does that mean the spine is injured?"
34494Draw in as long a breath as you can.--Well, do you hear me?
34494Dripping wet?
34494Eh? 34494 Eh?
34494Eh? 34494 Eh?
34494Eh? 34494 Eh?"
34494Eh?
34494Eh?
34494Eh?
34494Eh?
34494Eh?
34494Eh?
34494Explained? 34494 Feel done up, sir?"
34494Find any one asleep?
34494Finished?
34494Fire?
34494For me?
34494For nothing? 34494 Fretting?
34494Fun, Stan, my lad? 34494 Get betteh?
34494Given him no cause of offence? 34494 Go fi''?"
34494Going to fire again to startle me?
34494Gone-- eh?
34494Good; but when it is connected what does it do?
34494Got any appetite after your fighting?
34494Got him?
34494Had n''t we better give them a cheer and a few parting shots?
34494Had n''t we better try and shoot more of them, sir?
34494Had n''t you better have a fever too?
34494Had n''t you better write and tell them so?
34494Have you a set of chess- men?
34494Have you ever been attacked?
34494Have you taken breakfast to Mr Wing?
34494He''ll fire at me, of course,he said,"and I must run in before he can reload, as I said; but what about his revolver?
34494Hear him, Stan?
34494Help? 34494 Here, I say, I have n''t been asleep?"
34494Here, I say, had n''t you better leave off talking?
34494Here, Jeff,said his brother hoarsely;"do you smell that?"
34494Hi? 34494 Hi?
34494Hit any of the rabbits?
34494How are you getting on here?
34494How can I send you where I hold back from going myself?
34494How can that be so much the better?
34494How can we? 34494 How can you tell without a proper examination?"
34494How dare you come and ask after deserting us as you did? 34494 How did you know I watched from that heap of stones at the edge of the wharf?"
34494How did you know when the hours were up?
34494How is that?
34494How many junks can you see, and how many pirates in each?
34494How?
34494Hungry-- eh? 34494 Hungry-- eh?"
34494Hungry?
34494Hurt?
34494Hurt?
34494I could: why not?
34494I forgot to do so; why should n''t he have done the same? 34494 I never saw such a cowardly lot as we all are in my life.--Eh, lads?"
34494I second that,said Blunt.--"Now, Lynn, what do you say?"
34494I see,said Stan;"but it''s very horrible, is n''t it?"
34494I see,said Uncle Jeff;"but what next?"
34494I suppose you have one?
34494I''m a foreign devil, am I? 34494 I?
34494I? 34494 If it did n''t go down splash into the river-- eh?"
34494If we defend the place and are not able to beat them off, I suppose they will burn the_ hong_ and us in it?
34494In the dark?
34494Is anything the matter, Mr Blunt?
34494Is he a two- faced fellow,thought Stan,"and doing all this to put me off my guard?
34494Is he better?
34494Is it good, old chap?
34494Is it very bad?
34494Is it?
34494Is the trap- door locked?
34494Is there any likelihood of our going to war?
34494Is this perfectly true, Mr Blunt?
34494It has come to that, has it? 34494 Lay stlaight?"
34494Leady to buly poo''Wing?
34494Learn? 34494 Let me see,"he mused;"they will challenge me by saying,` Who goes there?''
34494Like big- game shooting?
34494Like what?
34494Loaded?
34494Lun away? 34494 Mad?"
34494Mao ashamed? 34494 Matter?

34494My remains?

34494No sudden quarrel?
34494No wantee Wing come fightee?
34494No?
34494No?
34494Not Mistee Lynn killee?
34494Not enemies, then?
34494Not fight it out here?
34494Not going to be too much for us, are they?
34494Not hungry? 34494 Not killee?"
34494Not while these ruffians are near.--What do you say, Stan?
34494Now then, what shall we do? 34494 Now then, you can feel that you are not broken to bits, Wing?"
34494Now then; once more-- ready?
34494Of being so cowardly, sir?
34494Of course; and you wo n''t mind using a rifle?
34494Oh uncle, can we do nothing?
34494Oh uncle,cried Stan passionately,"why did you come?"
34494Oh, but a lot of that''s false, is n''t it?
34494Oh, do n''t you? 34494 Oh, has he come back?"
34494Oh, have n''t you? 34494 Oh, that''s how you managed-- eh?"
34494Oh, that''s it, is it?
34494On shore?
34494One moment: where are you going to lie down?
34494Ought you to talk now?
34494Out of how many shots?
34494Queer? 34494 Ready?"
34494Refreshing?
34494Regularly?
34494Rested? 34494 Retreat?"
34494Risks? 34494 Robbers, father?"
34494Safe from what?
34494Say?
34494See about it, then,said Stan,"while we go and say a few words to the coolies-- eh?
34494See that, uncle?
34494See them coming?
34494See? 34494 Shabby?
34494Shall I help you?
34494Shall I lead, Noll?
34494Shall you employ him any more?
34494Smell the hydrogen, my lad?
34494So as to be ready?
34494So as to nip any little fire in the bud?
34494So close?
34494So soon?
34494So that''s what you think of me, is it?
34494Some trap?
34494Sooner lose about ten thousand pounds''worth of tea, dyewoods, and silk that I have been hard at work collecting with the help of Mr Wing here?
34494Still asleep?
34494Stitch in time saves nine-- eh, Stan?
34494TO CERTAIN DEATH?
34494That was another hit, was n''t it?
34494That''ll about do-- eh, Stan?
34494The bullets-- eh? 34494 The good?"
34494The wound''s healing up nicely, thanks to Wing here.-- Well, Wing, how are you?
34494Then the discharged soldiers are worse than the pirates, Wing?
34494Then they came in boats?
34494Then they mean to stop and back me up?
34494Then what''s the good of it?
34494Then why do n''t they burn us out? 34494 Then you are a hit of a doctor?"
34494Then you feel pretty sure that Wing is not dead?
34494Then you mean to stay?
34494Then you really believe that they are upstairs in hiding?
34494Then you think that perhaps, after all, they may not attack us?
34494Then you think they will come?
34494Then you think we might wait till the morning?
34494Then you will fight?
34494Then you will go?
34494Then you''ve brought bad news?
34494There''s nothing more to fear.--Do you see, Blunt? 34494 Think so?"
34494Thought what?
34494Tigers?
34494To certain death?
34494To shave me? 34494 Trying to get up?
34494Unfortunate? 34494 Up?
34494Very sorry for what?
34494Very well, then, coppers-- ready to` sky,''Stan-- eh? 34494 Very well; where would he bleed if it was not outside?"
34494WHAT''S THE MATTER?
34494Wait till the morning? 34494 Wait?
34494Want to be friends?
34494Want to shake hands?
34494Wantee go? 34494 Wantee you?
34494We sha n''t meet any of them now, I suppose?
34494We shall have to save ourselves this time-- independently.--Like fighting, Stan?
34494Well, I know that,cried Stan;"but what?
34494Well, Wing,cried Blunt;"see anything of the enemy?"
34494Well, does that hurt you very much?
34494Well, here you are; and now you are here, what do you want? 34494 Well, how did it come about?"
34494Well, sir, why do n''t you answer?
34494Well, then, am I not a donkey to teach you till you know as much as I do?
34494Well, why do n''t you go on?
34494Well, why do n''t you rest?
34494Well, you all hear?
34494Well,said Stan,"why do n''t you go?"
34494Well,said the latter, as they found him now awake,"how are the broken pieces?"
34494Well,was the reply,"did you ever see a sweep?"
34494What I want to know is, would they go off one at a time?
34494What about the coolies, then? 34494 What about the windows where the stink- pots came flying in as if all the stars in the sky had broken loose?"
34494What about?
34494What are you going to do about giving orders when the firing begins?
34494What are you going to do?
34494What are you laughing at?
34494What are you staring at, Stan?
34494What are you talking about?
34494What did he mean by that?
34494What did you mean-- pheasants-- turkeys?
34494What do they say now?
34494What do they say, my man?
34494What do you mean-- can I run fast?
34494What do you mean?
34494What do you say to retreating to the office after the volley, and then defending the door as the brutes try to get at us? 34494 What do you want here?"
34494What does it mean?
34494What does this mean?
34494What else?
34494What for?
34494What for?
34494What for?
34494What good shave uncle? 34494 What good?
34494What is it?
34494What is it?
34494What is to be done?
34494What made you so long?
34494What makes you think not?
34494What next?
34494What shall I do?
34494What sort of a fellow do you call yourself?
34494What time is it?
34494What was the matter?
34494What were you looking round for?
34494What will he say?
34494What will you do about poor Wing?
34494What!--ready to jump for joy, Stan?
34494What''s that for?
34494What''s that, uncle?
34494What''s that?
34494What''s that?
34494What''s that?
34494What''s the good, sir?
34494What''s the matter with you? 34494 What''s the matter, Blunt?"
34494What''s the matter? 34494 What''s the matter?"
34494What''s the matter?
34494What''s the matter?
34494What''s the meaning of this? 34494 What''s to be done, Jeff?"
34494What''s to be the next thing?
34494Whatever shall I do?
34494Wheah Englis''sailoh? 34494 Where are you hurt?"
34494Where is his wound?
34494Where shall I be?
34494Where''s Wing?
34494Who could possibly sleep at a time like this?
34494Who do n''t, father?
34494Who''d ever have thought we should be having such a breakfast as this in the old place-- eh, Oliver?
34494Who''s going to pull a great place like this down and build another?
34494Who''s that talking about ruin?
34494Who''s to rest patiently with not a dozen rifle- cartridges on the premises?
34494Whose son is he-- Mr Oliver''s or Mr Jeffrey''s? 34494 Why are you sure?"
34494Why did you do that?
34494Why did you run away last night?
34494Why do n''t you speak?
34494Why do you say that?
34494Why does n''t he get up?
34494Why not? 34494 Why not?"
34494Why not?
34494Why, however did you get out there?
34494Why, uncle,cried Stan,"have n''t I just had to play at being a man and handle the rifle?"
34494Why, what''s the matter with the fellow? 34494 Why?"
34494Why?
34494Why?
34494Why?
34494Will that save us now?
34494Will they try again, father?
34494Will you say a few encouraging words to the men?
34494Wing load long eyes-- nocklah-- leady to shoot?
34494Wing speakee quitee loud?
34494Wing?
34494With a rifle, Blunt?
34494With whom?
34494Without a doctor?
34494Wo n''t this bring help, father?
34494Would he?
34494Yes, I remember,said Stan, laughing;"and when it had exploded she said,` Where is the powder blue?''"
34494Yes, and what then? 34494 Yes, that is the sort of man; but how are we to get such a person without sending to England?"
34494Yes,replied Uncle Jeff;"we''ve got off, have n''t we?"
34494Yes,replied the lad;"but perhaps very much exaggerated.--Here, Wing, is all this quite true?"
34494Yes,said Stan huskily as he thrust the little instrument into his watch- pocket;"but about you?
34494Yes; but what has that to do with it?
34494Yes; lun velly fass?
34494Yes; tell me,said Stan,"how far have we to go up the river?"
34494You did?
34494You do n''t doubt that it was Chinese work?
34494You do?
34494You have done that?
34494You have n''t any ready, I suppose?
34494You have n''t been?
34494You here, Wing?
34494You laughed and said that?
34494You like that, then?
34494You likee ketchee fishee? 34494 You mean I should be killed at a blow, and not be able to come back and say what I had seen?"
34494You mean about the water poured over the ammunition?
34494You mean sham illness?
34494You say, go get dinneh leady? 34494 You see now, then?"
34494You suah?
34494You t''inkee?
34494You think he has escaped?
34494You think it is as bad as that?
34494You think it''s worse? 34494 You think junk full o''pilate come now?"
34494You think so too, do you?
34494You wantee Sin?
34494You''d have kept the miserable brutes off, but I''m afraid that the fire would have been rather too much-- eh?
34494You''ll not die and be buried this time.--Do you see what saved him, Lynn?
34494You''re stiff and bruised, and naturally you''ll feel pain as soon as you move; but do you know what you''ve done, sir?
34494Young Lynn glad Wing''top place?
34494Young Lynn go velly sickee? 34494 Young Lynn know who shot Wing?"
34494Young Lynn lettee Wing look flou''double eyeglass?
34494Young Lynn say bote leg bloke light off?
34494Young Lynn velly solly go''way?
34494Young Lynn wantee Wing?
34494Am I going mad?"
34494And I''m to be shut up in the next cage to a great monkey, am I?
34494And after what you said, I suppose you know how to use the pistol?"
34494And do n''t you see that it will be sunk right away there off the wharf?
34494And what then?
34494Any knocking down or punishing any of them?"
34494As Wing pointed out the fact to Stan, the movement he made startled the sufferer, who looked at him sideways and said:"What''s the matter?
34494As soon as you approach you''ll be challenged with` Who goes there?''"
34494Been so much frightened?"
34494Blunt heard him, but paid no heed for a minute or so; then looking up sternly, he saluted the man with a deep- toned--"Well, sir, what do you want?"
34494Boy get line leady, put bait hook, young Lynn ketchee fish?
34494Bring me any letters?"
34494But I say, Mr Lynn, what do you think about that bit of treachery?
34494But I say,"continued Blunt dryly;"would n''t you have liked to bring that monkey away with you?"
34494But Misteh Blunt no hang poo''Chinaman?"
34494But are you quite sure it is your uncle?"
34494But had n''t we better get the flag up first, and then it will be done?"
34494But how would you guide your kite with a fiery tail over the junk you meant to destroy?"
34494But how?
34494But tell me, Lynn; how are things going?"
34494But this time there was an addition--"Do you hear?"
34494But what do you mean?"
34494But why go to the farm first when, if I could get to the river from the town, I could start on at once?
34494But you are not nervous, are you?"
34494But you were not burnt?"
34494But, by the way, if the savage pirates come and treat me like that, where will you be?"
34494By the way, I wonder whether he''ll be back to- day?"
34494Ca n''t you see for yourself?
34494Can you eat some breakfast?"
34494Can you load and fire a pistol?"
34494Come snipe and duck shooting?"
34494Did I frighten you?"
34494Did n''t I get shot down there?
34494Did n''t you help them, sir?"
34494Did n''t you say they were coming?"
34494Did you see many piratical- looking war- junks as you came up the river?"
34494Did you see?"
34494Do n''t you grasp why they are breaking up the things?"
34494Do n''t you see how close they are in?
34494Do n''t you think I could fight?"
34494Do n''t you think they ought to be praised for what they have done?"
34494Do you call that solitary?"
34494Do you hear?"
34494Do you hear?"
34494Do you know the enemy may even now be on their way to make a fresh attack?"
34494Do you know what a loss like this means to me?"
34494Do you know where you are?"
34494Do you know who I am?"
34494Do you think I want our men to be put out of heart because I am bowled over?"
34494Do you think it''s going to be half so risky as staying here?
34494Do you think we shall have to run away from some of these men?"
34494Do you understand the danger?"
34494Do you want the cat?
34494Do you want to give up directing and turn yourself into a coolie to save one helpless man, and perhaps sacrifice your own life?"
34494Do you want to shave?"
34494Do you?"
34494Does n''t bleed, does it, sir?"
34494Eh?"
34494Feel ill?"
34494Fire away at the men who bring the stink- pots.--Eh-- what?
34494Getting to the last cartridges?
34494Go and bathe my face?"
34494Go down and fire through the door, or give them a dose out of one of these windows?"
34494Got a revolver?"
34494Got any fishing- tackle?"
34494Had n''t I better call a couple of the coolies to come and lift you into your room?"
34494Have n''t got a revolver of your own, I suppose?"
34494Have you arranged with Wing?"
34494Have you got out, Tchack?"
34494Have you looked right out yonder where the river bends round?"
34494Have you lost the money I gave you?"
34494Here, Stan, can you fight?"
34494Here, how are you getting on, my lads?"
34494How are we to find out?"
34494How can they know when there is a fight?"
34494How can you tell?"
34494How could I have forgotten it like that?"
34494How did you get away from the brutes?"
34494How did you know but what we might want to escape in your boat down to Nang Ti?"
34494How do you know?"
34494How do you know?"
34494How many are there of the wretches?"
34494How many junks can you make out?"
34494How many of you can manage rifles?"
34494How takee gleat ca''e if Wing lun away in boat?
34494How''s your rifle sighted now?"
34494However, matters were best as they were-- eh, Blunt?"
34494Humph!--I say, captain, do you carry a pocket- mirror?"
34494I could have a boat?
34494I could manage a rifle now as well as when I practised at a mark.--What do you say, Stan?
34494I propose being at the farther door: do you feel as if you could stand your ground with some of the men to hold this door till all is safe?"
34494I say, should n''t you like to make one with me in an expedition to knock that prison to pieces?"
34494I say, though, Blunt, is there any possibility of an attack being made from the shore?"
34494I say, though, squire; you think me a regular ruffian, do n''t you?"
34494I say, though, who''d ever think that there was so much strength in that skinny arm?
34494I say, though; you''ve heard nothing about the breaking out of war?"
34494I suppose we could not make a dash from one window and fight our way to some boat?"
34494I suppose you can do that?"
34494I was just thinking of sitting down to dinner when the junk came in sight, so you''ll come and join me-- eh?"
34494I''m peckish; are n''t you?"
34494I''m weak yet-- not get in a passion?"
34494If I find a man skulking and kick him, do you think the others side with him?"
34494If I was asleep, how could I have come out here to keep you company?"
34494If the monkey could do this, he argued directly after, why could not he?
34494If we defend this place for a time, is it likely that help will come?"
34494If we went on firing at the crowd we should soon have no cartridges left.--What does that shouting mean?"
34494If you''ll take my advice-- Will you?"
34494In such an emergency, with the poor fellow regularly murdered?"
34494Is Uncle Jeff ill?"
34494Is he dead?"
34494Is he very bad?"
34494Is n''t it just as likely that I should have to do this duty for you?"
34494Is n''t that Wing?"
34494Is n''t there a chemical that we could squirt over them from an engine of some kind?"
34494It does n''t fit with my roaring and shouting at them just now?
34494It takes a good shot to hit so small a mark as a hand in a fast- sailing boat-- eh?"
34494Just in the nick of time, too, for the lad''s ejaculation had been heard, and in an instant the challenge came out of the darkness:"Who goes there?"
34494Know where he lives?"
34494Like that?"
34494Like to know why?"
34494Living out in this unprotected place?
34494Look here, youngster; can you be honest?"
34494Look here; after what I''ve told you, do you mean to stay?"
34494Look yonder in the front of the junk: what can you see?"
34494Lun fass?"
34494Mind when you retreat that the doors are well barricaded.--Reloaded?"
34494Misteh Blunt hang Wing up so?"
34494Misteh Blunt say,` Where young Lynn?''
34494Misteh Olivee say,` Why Wing not''top topside house fight too, kill pilate, bling young Lynn quite safe?''
34494Misteh velly angly poo''Chinaman?"
34494My father?"
34494Neither is this,"he continued as, with the patient still groaning, the other arm was tenderly examined and laid straight.--"Hurt you very much, Wing?"
34494No go die and be bulied?"
34494No more boatloads for him, he''ll find.--What say, Lynn?
34494Not been wounded, have you?"
34494Not piratical craft, were they?"
34494Now are you satisfied?"
34494Now tell me quietly, what have you done about our breastworks and the wall?"
34494Now then!--You will fire too, Stan?"
34494Now then, Blunt,"he added,"are you satisfied?"
34494Now then, what''s the matter?
34494Now then, you''ve got a better idea than that up your sleeve or in that noddle of yours, I''m sure.--Hasn''t he, Blunt?"
34494Now whom do you suspect?"
34494Now, Stan, lad, what are you thinking of?
34494Of course, you know why they beat these gongs?"
34494Our chain of defences-- eh?"
34494Perhaps we shall want you.--Here, Oliver,"he whispered;"why not send Stan?"
34494Plenty of room there for any amount of plans-- eh, Stan?"
34494Queer-- eh, Lynn?"
34494Ready?
34494Say knock Wing down not get out o''way.--You been killee all pilate?"
34494See anything?"
34494Shall I go?"
34494Stan was silent, feeling quite confused,"Did you come and look at me before you went to sleep?"
34494Stan''s next words slipped out unconsciously:"Why have you put me in the most risky place?"
34494Stan- lee wan tee man to shave him?"
34494Strange that one in such a terrible position should feel such ecstasy upon seeing a glorious vision in the sunset beauties of that far- eastern river?
34494Tell me again; how many did they lose?"
34494That hurt you very much, Wing?"
34494Then he is awake?"
34494Then turning his eyes full upon Stan with a searching stare, he said shortly,"How do?
34494Then what do you think of me?"
34494Then you mean to go for us, sir?"
34494Then you mean to risk it?"
34494They held out--""They?
34494Think you can eat and drink?"
34494Thoroughly thrashed them?"
34494Throwing out the empty cartridge, he began to fit in another, and as with trembling fingers he reclosed the breech he whispered sharply:"Did I hit?"
34494To make a show of me?
34494To send us both to their wretched Zoological Gardens in Peking?
34494Understand?"
34494Understand?"
34494Understand?"
34494Want to shake hands?"
34494Was it hunger, then, which produced a longing for a few raw fish?
34494We know better-- eh?"
34494We might take our guns and get a bit of sport among the snipes in the paddy- fields; what do you say?"
34494We shall see I say, though, what about that gathering of war- junks you saw?
34494Well, how did you leave the governors?"
34494Well, look here; the wounds are quite high up?"
34494Well,"he added, changing his tone again,"so they''ve sent a boy like you?"
34494Were n''t you?"
34494What Wing say?
34494What about?"
34494What became of you?
34494What did Mr Blunt tell me to say?
34494What did you say they did?"
34494What do the contemptible brutes mean?
34494What do you mean by your` half- done''?"
34494What do you mean?
34494What do you propose doing first?"
34494What do you say to going up the river lands and gardens along with him?"
34494What do you say to that?"
34494What do you say, Mr Lynn?"
34494What do you say?"
34494What do you think of that?"
34494What do you want?
34494What does it mean, then-- a trap?"
34494What double dickens you do along young Lynn?''
34494What have you got to say for yourself?"
34494What is it they want to do?"
34494What is it to be, Mr Lynn?
34494What is it?
34494What is it?
34494What is it?"
34494What is it?"
34494What is your opinion about the matter, Mr Lynn?"
34494What name?"
34494What of the night?"
34494What of?"
34494What should I have to do?"
34494What sort of a lad would you have chosen?"
34494What time''s up?"
34494What want heah?''
34494What word will you give to prove that you are a friend?"
34494What would you call it-- coffee?"
34494What''s that French proverb about the man who tries to clear himself making matters worse?"
34494What''s that next one?"
34494What''s that?"
34494What''s that?"
34494What''s to be done now?"
34494What?"
34494Whatever shall I do?
34494When did you come?"
34494When does the boat start?"
34494When will it be?"
34494Where am I?"
34494Where are you hurt?"
34494Where are your Chinese pirates?"
34494Where is it?
34494Where''s Wing?"
34494Where?
34494Who fired it?"
34494Who''d ever have thought that I should turn out such a thief?"
34494Who''ll follow?"
34494Who''s going to bury a live man?"
34494Who''s going to stop me?"
34494Who''s to know what he means?"
34494Why are you grinning at me, sir?"
34494Why did your people christen you that?"
34494Why did your people christen you that?"
34494Why not take advantage of this lull and quietly get out on the other side, so as to get right away from the river?
34494Why not?
34494Why should he have done so?
34494Why, Stan, how do you think you are going to fly kites with the enemy in front?"
34494Will that do you?"
34494Will that do?"
34494Will you have a try?"
34494Wing cooks a little, but nothing like so well as Sin.--I suppose we ca n''t spare him to go with Stan here, can we, Oliver?"
34494Wing?
34494Yes, I begin to think that you gave the enemy such an awful thrashing--""I?"
34494You could do that?"
34494You do n''t feel much the worse for it all?"
34494You do n''t really mean to say you want me to kill as many of those unfortunate wretches as I can?"
34494You feel leady to go down eatee big dinnee?"
34494You feel the same, do n''t you?"
34494You got plenty bale plenty tea- box fo''Mao take down livah-- eh?"
34494You have been good friends with him, Blunt?"
34494You have something else to say?"
34494You hear me?"
34494You know where all the men are stationed?"
34494You likee eatee dlinkee?"
34494You likee have gun shoot duck?"
34494You likee lie down?
34494You remember skying the copper-- the old charwoman putting the gunpowder in the copper flue, as she said, to` burn up by degrees''?"
34494You there?"
34494You understand?"
34494You wantee Wing takee plop''ca''e young Lynn?"
34494You''ll be in the way.--Well, do you hear?"
34494You''re captain now-- do you hear?"
34494You''ve had no quarrel with him, Blunt?"
34494Young Lynn savee big managee Blunt?"
34494` See, misteh?''
34494` What is it?''
34494about going up the country?
34494asked Blunt from out of the mist close at hand--"the pirates going by?"
34494can you get some?"
34494cut off my growing beard?"
34494from up on that pile of stones at the edge of the wharf?"
34494in the stone?"
34494not got the boxes and bales under cover again?"
34494not the soldiers?"
34494our boat?"
34494said Uncle Jeff, who was mollified by the man''s words,"Well, what''s for breakfast?"
34494said the manager in a tone full of surprise;"that''s what you''ve come for, is it?"
34494that sounds better,"cried Uncle Jeff eagerly;"but could it be done?"
34494what for?
34494what''s that?
34494what''s that?"
34494where it turns round the end of the warehouse?"
34494whispered Stan triumphantly;"do you mean to tell me that the enemy would be able to keep as still as that if they were up there?"
34494who knows?"
34494why did n''t the Doctor teach me Chinese instead of all that Latin and Greek?
34494with our defences?
34494you''ve seen them?"
