hvd.hn3hhr	If individuals are to be held responsible for their misdeeds, why not nations?
hvd.hn3hhr	In the calmest tones imag- inable, — tones, however, that seemed pregnant with hidden meaning, — Allan Dune asked: “ Gentlemen, are you ready?"

hvd.hn3hhr	“ How much do I owe you? ” he queried, as a pre- liminary step.
hvd.hn3hhr	“ How soon can you have a detachment of the Savna Guards on the scene? ” he asked.
hvd.hn3hhr	“ I'm justice of the peace here,"announced Bale; “ and you may consider yourselves under arrest. ” “ An fer what?"
hvd.hn3hhr	“ Is he — does he — er — have any authority here?"
hvd.hn3hhr	“ Is that the Governor? ” came the voice of the sheriff's wife.
hvd.hn3hhr	“ I’spose your friend is president of the road? ” “ Shure, an'yure wrong again, ” said the loquacious Paddy.
hvd.hn3hhr	“ So that's it?"
hvd.hn3hhr	“ This is Miss Mangus; is it not? ” asked Allan, recognizing the voice.
hvd.hn3hhr	“ Well, Eph, have you been dreaming, too? ” “ Yes,"responded Eph; “ but my experience will throw but little light upon this strange affair.

emu.10002331914	He fumbled his pencil thoughtfully while I waited nervously then went on:"And you feel quite capable of running a car, do you?"
emu.10002331914	He had only one animal, according to my horse- sense(?
emu.10002331914	He listened carefully and when I was through he said:"They gave you a warranty deed, did they not?"
emu.10002331914	He would let out a sort of yowl;"Little Joe, ca n't you do it?"
emu.10002331914	However, the crowd were looking for encour¬ agement and spoke up in chorus:"Do n't the rail¬ roads always follow valleys?"
emu.10002331914	However, you call up in about an hour, and if he is still here, I'll say'this is the wrong number, see?'"
emu.10002331914	Huh, do you suppose I want your old mule?"
emu.10002331914	I said:"What is the matter?
emu.10002331914	I would sit through it all quite un¬ emotional, and nightly I would be approached with"are n't you ready?"
emu.10002331914	I've got a girl for you; what do you think of that?"
emu.10002331914	If he should have her relinquish, then where would I be, and the one thousand, five hundred dollars I had paid them?
emu.10002331914	McCraline?"
emu.10002331914	My heart went out to her, and I wanted to help and said:"Why did you not write to me, did n't you know that I would have done something?"
emu.10002331914	Now what did it mean?
emu.10002331914	On the level now, or are you just chiding me?"
emu.10002331914	She continued to look hard at me, then meekly reached up and touched my chin, looked into my eyes, and said:"Why do n't you wash your face?"
emu.10002331914	Strike?"
emu.10002331914	That was where the rub came in, which way would the road go?
emu.10002331914	The question uppermost in my mind became,"'Would not I become like that, would I too, deny my race?"
emu.10002331914	Then some¬ one suggested that it might be the same old game, and here would come a pause, then the question,"What old game?"
emu.10002331914	Then—"Ah, Poiter, will you tell me when we get to Valparaiso?"
emu.10002331914	Were they not satisfied with Calias, where they had grafted everybody out of their money?"
emu.10002331914	What was up?
emu.10002331914	When I crossed the street one of the men who had tried to sell me a team jumped me with:"Well, they got you, did they?"
emu.10002331914	When we got back, I sang the old story to which she answered with,"Do you really want me?"
emu.10002331914	Why do you go on so?
emu.10002331914	Why was Ernest Nicholson moving the bank of Calias five miles west of Megory and setting it down on or near the end of the survey?
emu.10002331914	and O, Mrs. Quante, would you care for some radishes, cucumbers or lettuce for tomorrow?
emu.10002331914	but that is a lot of land,"I exclaimed, getting in¬ terested,"and what is it worth an acre?"
emu.10002331914	did you say how'll I trade mules?

uc1.b5521446	What are you laughing at?
uc1.b5521446	Why, Beulah, ” said he,what is the matter with you to- day?
uc1.b5521446	23 affairs once for all?
uc1.b5521446	According to tradition, Adam was as brown as a bun; and cer- tainly our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ must liave been a very dark- complexioned man?
uc1.b5521446	And had they not the right to vote as they pleased, even as others had?
uc1.b5521446	And how did we knock down the house and kill him?
uc1.b5521446	And shall a sinful nation indeed escape from blood- red crimes like these?
uc1.b5521446	And white men were thankful enough to be saved by our men, and who could blame them?
uc1.b5521446	Besides, were they not free?
uc1.b5521446	But after they had gone, Muriel called her brother Willy, and said,"Willie, do you see that boat?
uc1.b5521446	But all wished to behold the old Kentucky shore again, for who does not love the scenes of their youth?
uc1.b5521446	But how could we expect more success than we had under the circumstances?
uc1.b5521446	But what about slavery?
uc1.b5521446	But where are representatives in Congress to- day, and where are the colored Senators and others in the legislative halls of the Southern States?
uc1.b5521446	But who heard ine then?
uc1.b5521446	But who would ever see or hear me in the cotton fields, or the sugar plantations, and in the rice swamps of Louisiana or Georgia?
uc1.b5521446	But will one hundredth part of the truth ever be told?
uc1.b5521446	But, Beulah, will you marry me then? ”"Yes, with pleasure, when we are free from the chains of slavery."
uc1.b5521446	Can we have work?
uc1.b5521446	Can you suggest no remedy, my own dear Beulah?"
uc1.b5521446	Did those men do nothing for their country, after all their drillings and other miglity preparations for the purpose of going to the field?
uc1.b5521446	Does anybody mean to say that Adam and the Lord Jesus had no right to be respected because they were as brown as a bun in complexion?
uc1.b5521446	From the very first day when a rebel was shot dead by a former servant(?)
uc1.b5521446	He had been casting “ sheep's eyes ” at me for several years past, but who could think of marriage whilst in a state of slavery?
uc1.b5521446	Here are a few questions and answers that will speak for them- selves:"Now, Uncle Joe, what did you come for?"
uc1.b5521446	I ask; Me from delights to sever, Me to torture, me to task?
uc1.b5521446	I do n't think it erer will; because it will never be known, and who can write the history of that which we do n't know?
uc1.b5521446	If we have advanced so much in thirty- two years, how much farther shall we be in thirty- two more?
uc1.b5521446	Lincoln, will you be so kind as to favor us with some of your warm Southern music?"
uc1.b5521446	Now, since this world began, dear reader, when did any one of us ever hear of such a farce as this?
uc1.b5521446	Of course there was some risk to run, but who would not dare all for freedom?
uc1.b5521446	Oh, children ai n't you glad, The sea gave away?
uc1.b5521446	Oh, children, ai nt you glad, That Moses smote the waters,---- Oh, children ai n't you glad The sea gave away?
uc1.b5521446	Shall a guilty nation indeed escape for deeds like these?
uc1.b5521446	Shall not these who criminally carry on the slavetrade, and slavery, soon atone for all this?
uc1.b5521446	Still in thought as free as ever, What are England's rights?
uc1.b5521446	The day is coming, and what will you do about it?
uc1.b5521446	The shot- gun policy was now beginning to recoil on itself, for who can till the soil of the South like colored men?
uc1.b5521446	Was it any wonder, then, that we had so little success in this war which God himself had sent, chiefly that the slaves should be freed?
uc1.b5521446	Was it not, if possible, a ten times greater sin to carry on slavery than for the Southern States to secede?
uc1.b5521446	Was there ever such a shout of joy heard since the Is- raelites escaped from Egyptian slavery, when Pharaoh and all his host perished in the Red Sea?
uc1.b5521446	What could they do with- out salt?
uc1.b5521446	What joys has this world like them?
uc1.b5521446	What was the use ef Camp This, or Camp That, or Camp the Other Place to them?
uc1.b5521446	When were too women ever so happy on a New York boat on the Lower Mississippi?
uc1.b5521446	Where, now, was the doctrine, indeed,"That the descendants the African race had no rights that a white man was bound to respect?"
uc1.b5521446	Which one of us has not had a grand day of triumph, as well as his night of misfortune and distress?
uc1.b5521446	Who ever gave “ the white man ” the right to use such language, un- less it was wickedly presumed by his own presumptuous and lying ar- rogance?
uc1.b5521446	Who ever heard of such unmanliness and cowardice?
uc1.b5521446	Who need wonder, in- deed, that our arms had such small success for almost two years after the rebels seceded?
uc1.b5521446	Who would ever have imagined that in our own day history would thus have repeated itself?
uc1.b5521446	Whoever read anything more pathetic than the above?
uc1.b5521446	Why did all- creating nature Make the plant for which we toil?
uc1.b5521446	Why not?
uc1.b5521446	You can imagine how grieved I was, but how much worse must mother have felt?
uc1.b5521446	instead of being a human being like yourself, and one for whom Christ died?
uc1.b5521446	the triumphal march of the education of the colored race, for who, in- deed, could stop the waves of the ocean?
uc1.b5521446	“ What hath not God wrought? ” Those more than four decisive years, so heavy with fate and destiny, looked long, very long, in pass- ing, but ah!
nnc1.50042212	Are you sure that it was George Simmons? ” asked the chief. nnc1.50042212 Come Sister Simmons, what do you say?"
nnc1.50042212	He is showing me up is he? ” was the thought that entered his mind. nnc1.50042212 Is that so,"said Mrs. Simmons,"where is he?
nnc1.50042212	To what did you arise Mr. Washington? ”Mr. Chairman, I arise to make a motion.
nnc1.50042212	Well what do purpose to take up as a life work? ” she asked. nnc1.50042212 What do you mean George Simmons?""
nnc1.50042212	What is so rare as a day in June? nnc1.50042212 Where is he? ” We have a writ for him. ” “ A writ for what? ” cried Mrs. Simmons"What has he done? ”"Well he is charged with incendiarism.
nnc1.50042212	Where is he? ” We have a writ for him. ” “ A writ for what? ” cried Mrs. SimmonsWhat has he done? ”"Well he is charged with incendiarism.
nnc1.50042212	Where is he? ” We have a writ for him. ” “ A writ for what? ” cried Mrs. SimmonsWhat has he done? ”"Well he is charged with incendiarism.
nnc1.50042212	Who is Charley Christopher? ” returned his father. nnc1.50042212 Why I have always had this opinion of you Mr. Christopher, do you doubt me?"
nnc1.50042212	You back Lillian?
nnc1.50042212	You have heard the resolutions, what is your pleasure? ”Mr. Chairman, ” the voice came from the women's side of the house.
nnc1.50042212	's"Did you get your letters? ” asked Mrs. Mc.
nnc1.50042212	128 LILLIAN SIMMONS"Do you always expect to remain a porter in the dry goods store? ” said she, putting the question directly.
nnc1.50042212	And to what purpose, when this cowork- er, weaker than himself, secures the big paying position, and he is forced to take to the fields of drudgery?
nnc1.50042212	Are you ready for the question? ” “ Question! ” A number of voices rang out through the house.
nnc1.50042212	At this one of the boys remarked:"You do n't think he is afraid of you do you?
nnc1.50042212	But did she not give him cause to hope?
nnc1.50042212	But what have the colored people for their children to do?
nnc1.50042212	But would Charles Christopher have listened to her mother as he had listened to 79 80 LILLIAN SIMMONS her?
nnc1.50042212	But would a plea from her mother have had the same effect on him?
nnc1.50042212	Charles asked, “ Lillian my love will you be mine? ” The answer came in accents, sweet and tender.
nnc1.50042212	Could he not go away now and at some future time return and say the things that he desired so much to say to her?
nnc1.50042212	Did n't I tell you all that moth- er?
nnc1.50042212	Do n't you know I had rather obey the call of death a hundred times than submit to your demand?
nnc1.50042212	Do you remember old man Littlejohn's speech in the early chapters of this book?
nnc1.50042212	Do you think he committed the deed?"
nnc1.50042212	How about it Mr. Simmons? ” Captain Simmons had been sitting listening quietly to what Mrs. Simmons was saying.
nnc1.50042212	Or have you ever tried to figure it out? ” At this juncture Charles paused for a re- ply.
nnc1.50042212	She immediately awoke, exclaiming,"What on earth is the matter with my child?
nnc1.50042212	Suppose you let me send you down there?
nnc1.50042212	Tell me why, George Simmons, in a straight- forward, candid manner the reason why?
nnc1.50042212	The school lasts ten months. ” see what he asked me to the length of A TEACHER WANTED 107"When will you be back this way?"
nnc1.50042212	Was it not cowardly for him to leave at this particular time, when these Northern peo- ple could and should be taught a lesson?
nnc1.50042212	Was not the hope held out in tender and confidentially spoken words worth the sacrifice?
nnc1.50042212	What could it mean?
nnc1.50042212	What do you say, Madam? ” said the Bishop, turning to Mrs. Simmons.
nnc1.50042212	What has happened? ” She was awake, but it seemed an age before her senses would aid her in deter- mining the trouble with her daughter.
nnc1.50042212	What has he to do?
nnc1.50042212	What is the further pleasure of the house? ” he asked, as his gavel fell heavily upon the table before him.
nnc1.50042212	What results can you show, my Northern brother, by pursuing your revengeful fighting policy?
nnc1.50042212	What salary does the posi- tion pay?"
nnc1.50042212	What will papa and mama say when they know of this? ” George was too tired or nervous to reply.
nnc1.50042212	What would those of his sympathizing friends say and think of him?
nnc1.50042212	Why cast them all on a heap together and treat them all as un- worthy?
nnc1.50042212	Why is she forced to mingle with or- dinary mortals like us?
nnc1.50042212	Will you leave for my sake? ” Charles could no more resist the pleadings of Lillian Simmons than he could dam up the great Niagra.
nnc1.50042212	YUN"When you cast'flections on de Souf, you cast'flections on me. ” THE INDIGNATION MEETING 61 Why?
nnc1.50042212	You are a graduate are you not?
nnc1.50042212	You can see how im- pudently he stares at me. ” “ That fellow right there? ” said the conduc- tor.
nnc1.50042212	“ George what is the matter with you? ” asked his mother at length.
nnc1.50042212	“ Is n't that true? ” she said, as she stooped and patted the large St. Bernard dog on the head, that lay happily at her feet.
nnc1.50042212	“ Is that he?
nnc1.50042212	“ Mother, may I go to the library this morn- ing and get my book?
nnc1.50042212	“ Tell me the truth son, you did not set fire to Christopher's store did you? ”"No father I did not ” said George.
nnc1.50042212	“ Well mother, what are we going to do? ” she said one morning at the breakfast table, af- ter George and her father had left.
nnc1.50042212	“ What inducements have your boys and girls to complete a course here in the North?
nnc1.50042212	“ Who poked you in the eye? ” Charles told him about the fight, how it started and all.
nnc1.50042212	“ You are so kind and manly, one could scarcely keep from caring for you,""Do you really mean it? ” he asked.
nnc1.50042212	“ You do nt mean to tell me that you oppose separate schools in the South do you, or in the North either as to that matter?
mdp.39015022276797	How was that? ” inquired the Canadian quietly. mdp.39015022276797 108 I have an aunt? ” She sounded breathless, excited and afraid. mdp.39015022276797 A wake? mdp.39015022276797 After all, does a Negro have to wear a placard announcing what he is? mdp.39015022276797 Am I correct, Colonel, in saying that I see in this move a fine Italian hand?

mdp.39015022276797	But why had the conductor permitted him to sit there in the first place?
mdp.39015022276797	Can one toss it aside and have done with it for all time?
mdp.39015022276797	Could we figuratively remove our insignia and speak man to man? ” The room was in dead silence.
mdp.39015022276797	Did n't we render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's?
mdp.39015022276797	Did n't you tell me once that you had a chick parked in your car on a lonely road and you decided to take her to your apartment?
mdp.39015022276797	Enough of what? ” exclaimed Roy, amazed.
mdp.39015022276797	Finally she laughed softly, countering, “ What of a man?
mdp.39015022276797	Finally, Roy broke the stillness by demanding, “ Say, what is this?
mdp.39015022276797	Had education and religion failed- or was hate a fiercer emotion than love?
mdp.39015022276797	Had his rank gone to his head?
mdp.39015022276797	He answered impishly, “ I was doing what comes naturally, Captain. ”"Are you trying to be smart?"
mdp.39015022276797	He simply asked, “ Then, why did you enter the army as a white man? ” “ Actually, I had no choice.
mdp.39015022276797	He was jolted back to reality by the hissing voice of the conductor demanding belligerently, menacingly, “ What the hell is wrong with you?
mdp.39015022276797	How about explaining? ”"Well, ” he said, “ I'll be personal.
mdp.39015022276797	How black is black, anyway?
mdp.39015022276797	How can you generate so much heat in this Michigan calm?
mdp.39015022276797	How would my spirit and body react?
mdp.39015022276797	Is it really you?
mdp.39015022276797	Is my accent so different? ” He sipped his fruit juice which had just been served and eyed the chaplain playfully.
mdp.39015022276797	Is that the thanks I get for breaking my neck to come over here to inform you? ” demanded Roy somewhat heatedly.
mdp.39015022276797	Is there any truth to this?
mdp.39015022276797	Is this your idea of a bull session?"
mdp.39015022276797	It is a beautiful night, is n't it?
mdp.39015022276797	Just what gives? ” Holding onto his patience, Roy said, “ Let's get together in an hour and exchange notes."
mdp.39015022276797	May I presume to ask whether you are a sea captain?"
mdp.39015022276797	Maybe you want a strip- teaser too, eh?
mdp.39015022276797	Mr. City Slicker walks over, gracefully opens the door, saying with a low bow, ‘ May I have the pleasure?'
mdp.39015022276797	Must he degrade himself by rising and going “ where he belonged ”?
mdp.39015022276797	Not working today?"
mdp.39015022276797	Now, tell me, where was the rank?
mdp.39015022276797	Over and over again, he heard the words repeating themselves like a refrain: “ Are n't you a nigger?
mdp.39015022276797	Over his shoulder, he said,'An uppish nigger, eh?
mdp.39015022276797	Roy announced excitedly, “ Colonel Holmes, there's a race riot in Detroit. ” “ What?
mdp.39015022276797	Shall we dub him Mr. Country?
mdp.39015022276797	Since when does thirty- six —? ” “ Brother, ” laughed Frank, “ you'll never see thirty- six again.
mdp.39015022276797	So I'll call it to the attention of those in command, and maybe- who knows? ” The major kept his promise.
mdp.39015022276797	So why should n't they?
mdp.39015022276797	So, I must assume a leadership, buck a system in which I know the cards are stacked against me and find my ass in jail?
mdp.39015022276797	Some salesman or meter- reader in civilian life defends him, but who prosecutes him?
mdp.39015022276797	The bartender looked at Roy significantly, then said, “ Sorry, but I think you've had enough. ”"Had enough?
mdp.39015022276797	The enlisted man who sold him the bars grinned and asked, “ May I be the first to pin them on you, Captain?
mdp.39015022276797	Then how could the individ- ual be blamed?
mdp.39015022276797	Was he anti- Negro?
mdp.39015022276797	Was he trying to be smart, to thwart the laws?
mdp.39015022276797	What happens when a man draws a courtmar- tial?
mdp.39015022276797	What if he returns maimed?
mdp.39015022276797	What in hell are you doing in the army? ” The major was so overjoyed that he fairly shouted.
mdp.39015022276797	What is it? ”"Well, those silver oak leaves place me at a disadvantage.
mdp.39015022276797	What other ad- justment could I make?
mdp.39015022276797	What was it?
mdp.39015022276797	What would hap- pen to me if I took this moment of joy- with you leaving tomor- row?
mdp.39015022276797	What's troubling you? ” “ It's just this, Colonel.
mdp.39015022276797	Why be prosaic if you can say a thing elegantly?
mdp.39015022276797	Why did n't he go to the back of the car as ordered?
mdp.39015022276797	Why had he collected his fare?
mdp.39015022276797	Why must these occurrences take place, he asked himself, and with such frequency?
mdp.39015022276797	Why single out the woman?
mdp.39015022276797	Why?
mdp.39015022276797	Why? ” Unfortunately for him, Roy was in a facetious mood.
mdp.39015022276797	With a half smile, half sneer, he took a puff and remarked, “ You have n't learned yet how to live with white folks, have you, Harry?'
mdp.39015022276797	You're a nigger, are n't you? ” That only made matters worse.
mdp.39015022276797	“ All roads lead to Rome, remember? ” “ Now what the hell does that mean? ” “ I tell you what.
mdp.39015022276797	“ All roads lead to Rome, remember? ” “ Now what the hell does that mean? ” “ I tell you what.
mdp.39015022276797	“ Are you going in?"
mdp.39015022276797	“ Colonel Holmes, may I have a word with you? ” “ Yes.
mdp.39015022276797	“ Colonel, what about my cousin? ” Roy asked.
mdp.39015022276797	“ How's about seeing if this is according to Hoyle? ” said the bearer.
mdp.39015022276797	“ Lieutenant Raymond? ” “ Yes, sir."
mdp.39015022276797	“ So, you care for Mr. Country, eh? ” “ Let's not discuss it further.
mdp.39015022276797	“ Sullenly, his quiet anger rising up to his throat, Harry re- plied,'Have you learned to live with Negroes, sir?'
mdp.39015022276797	“ What the hell do you guys want?
mdp.39015022276797	“ What the hell do you mean by the oldest of you all?
mdp.39015022276797	“ What will you have, Roy? ” asked Steve.
mdp.39015022276797	“ Where do I eat, Colonel? ” “ The chaplains have a portion of an enlisted men's mess hall fixed up for themselves.
mdp.39015022276797	“ Why do n't you use army transportation instead of wearing out your own car? ” asked Roy.
mdp.39015022276797	“'Yes?'

hvd.32044021096433	Is a man so foolish as to assume that by binding or setting bounds for my body he can fetter my soul?
hvd.32044021096433	Is de white man lowah an'wuser dan de yuther wile beastis?"
hvd.32044021096433	Is it for this we all have felt the flame, This newer bondage and deeper shame?
hvd.32044021096433	Is it really true, Sebastian, that you associated with and treated, and now treat this Negro as a social equal?"
hvd.32044021096433	May I not serve you?
hvd.32044021096433	Miss DeHart asked why he was going to discard his home town and take his store of knowledge and abilities elsewhere?
hvd.32044021096433	Mr. Storms then spoke up and said:"Why, gentlemen, what has he done to merit death?
hvd.32044021096433	Must all we do and think yield money?
hvd.32044021096433	Must man live by bread alone?
hvd.32044021096433	Storms was considerably moved by what was told him, pondered much over it, and as he paced the floor, exclaimed: 250 OUT OF THE DARKNESS,"0 what am I?
hvd.32044021096433	The Negro is your friend; why not treat him as such?
hvd.32044021096433	The conductor said to Mr. DeShon, —"Is this your nurse?"
hvd.32044021096433	The master called out,"Who's there?"
hvd.32044021096433	The nurses rushed to the bed, but he did not move, for when he essayed to do so he uttered a groan, and said:"What is the matter with me?"
hvd.32044021096433	These are, all of them, necessary and important, but what are they worth to a race that accepts a state of servil- ity as its fixed destiny?
hvd.32044021096433	Though they may be grievous is it not better to suffer our pres- ent ills than by opposing them incur others far more disastrous?
hvd.32044021096433	WHAT OF THE NIGHT AND THE FLIGHT?.'
hvd.32044021096433	What are houses, land and money to men who are women?
hvd.32044021096433	What destiny awaits me?
hvd.32044021096433	What has happened?
hvd.32044021096433	What has happened?
hvd.32044021096433	What if the'niggers'are five to one of us?
hvd.32044021096433	What is it that causes these feelings to come over me; can it be any influence in this beautiful dream?
hvd.32044021096433	What was the'nigger'made for but to be our beast of burden, like the mule?
hvd.32044021096433	What would our be- loved South be without our laborers?
hvd.32044021096433	When Dr. Storms was gone Cordelia said to her brother,"Is he really a Negro?
hvd.32044021096433	When it was known about the streets and in the places of business, the questions were upon every lip:"Do you know that Elder Buchanan is very ill?"
hvd.32044021096433	When she came in, he said:"Well, Martiel, oh — well, may I call you that?
hvd.32044021096433	When she was through with the prayer, Harold said:"Mother, is it not well that father is not living in these times?
hvd.32044021096433	Where is Julian — I mean Mr. Jarnigan?
hvd.32044021096433	Where is Julian?"
hvd.32044021096433	Where is a race or nation which has not?
hvd.32044021096433	While the Negroes are ignorant and perhaps venal to- day, will they always be so?
hvd.32044021096433	Who has done me this injustice?"
hvd.32044021096433	Who o'er the herd would wish to reign, Frantic, fickle, fierce and vain?
hvd.32044021096433	Why can not we be actuated by the same ennobling sentiment?
hvd.32044021096433	Why duz dey hate us so much more now dan dey did in de days uv slavery?
hvd.32044021096433	Why have they per- sisted in dealing with the Negro as an execrable outcast?
hvd.32044021096433	Why is that?'
hvd.32044021096433	Why should I be a Ne- gro when I am seven- eighths white and only one- eighth Negro?
hvd.32044021096433	Why should I choose death rather than life?
hvd.32044021096433	Why should conditions be such in this day of advanced thought and action that I should feel more patriotic than you or your people?"
hvd.32044021096433	Why should you,'nigger,'wish to have a wife and form family ties any way?
hvd.32044021096433	Why, do you see that fellow lying yonder by that large oak?
hvd.32044021096433	Why, how is hit dat dis mighty white man is so superiur ter de yuther branches uv de human famly, when dey is all uv one blud?
hvd.32044021096433	Why, just the other day Mrs. Bloomfield said to me:"'Norris, why is it I ca n't get a servant to stay with me?
hvd.32044021096433	Will he learn to do and die — To place his draggled name on high?

hvd.32044021096433	You are here this year and who knows where you will be next?
hvd.32044021096433	You are num- bered with our cattle and mules; then why not live as the beasts of the field?"
hvd.32044021096433	some poor innocent being was sacrificed to save him; and me from the death- dealing hell- hole of the South called a prison?"
hvd.32044021096433	what has hap- pened?
hvd.32044021096433	where are the boys?
hvd.32044021096433	where is the ball?
mdp.39015054061430	Friends of yours, Anne?
mdp.39015054061430	I wonder if you can help me? mdp.39015054061430 Oh, that?
mdp.39015054061430	Well, it seems to work out that way. ” “ How old are you, Miss Crane?
mdp.39015054061430	Where in the world are the Fishers? mdp.39015054061430 Why?"
mdp.39015054061430	... Jesus — of Nazareth?
mdp.39015054061430	2 1 4 QUICKS AND Anderson- Why not she?
mdp.39015054061430	259 QUICKS AND ture like that, hold out against her?
mdp.39015054061430	A taxi?
mdp.39015054061430	A telegram before she went through the customs?
mdp.39015054061430	A woman, tall, ex- quisitely gowned, with shining gray hair piled high, came forward murmuring in a puzzled voice:"His niece, did you say?".
mdp.39015054061430	About Helga there sputtered mov- 156 QUICKS AND her personally?
mdp.39015054061430	After a moment, however, she asked gently: “ You would n't like to tell me about it, would you?
mdp.39015054061430	And for the reasons you've stated? ” “ Yes, partly.
mdp.39015054061430	And to Helga's smiling, grateful “ Thank you, ” he returned:"Your trunks?
mdp.39015054061430	And we do n't want that, do we? ” No, the man, her husband, responded, they did n't want that.
mdp.39015054061430	And why did Anne, who had so much more than so many others — more than enough- want Anderson too?
mdp.39015054061430	And you do n't think it might help to cure us, to have someone who does n't approve of these things stay with us?
mdp.39015054061430	As easy as that?
mdp.39015054061430	At his “ Miss Crane? ” her lips formed for speech, but no sound came.
mdp.39015054061430	At last he spoke, in a queer frozen voice:"You refuse me?"
mdp.39015054061430	Besides, what need to think of him?
mdp.39015054061430	But just what did she want?
mdp.39015054061430	But was n't it after all the greatest kindness to be cruel?
mdp.39015054061430	But what?
mdp.39015054061430	But — had she been met?
mdp.39015054061430	Can I help you?"
mdp.39015054061430	Can you be ready by then?
mdp.39015054061430	Could she do it?
mdp.39015054061430	Did it mean that the difference was to be stressed, accented?
mdp.39015054061430	Did they really think at all?
mdp.39015054061430	Did you have a good trip?
mdp.39015054061430	Do you? ”"No."
mdp.39015054061430	Else why had they decked her out as they had?
mdp.39015054061430	Else why their constant slavish imitation of traits not their own?
mdp.39015054061430	Even just one person, Miss Crane? ”.
mdp.39015054061430	For me?
mdp.39015054061430	Frankly the question came to this: what was the matter with her?
mdp.39015054061430	Green?
mdp.39015054061430	Had He not in His great kindness given her three small lives to raise up for His glory?
mdp.39015054061430	Had He not showered her with numerous other mercies( evidently too numerous to be named sepa- rately)?
mdp.39015054061430	Had he insinuated marriage, or something less — and easier?
mdp.39015054061430	Had not the good God saved her soul from hell- fire and eternal damnation?
mdp.39015054061430	Had she anything in mind?
mdp.39015054061430	Have you refer- ences? ” Helga explained.
mdp.39015054061430	How can I tell that? ” Helga asked with irritating reserve, her con- centrated attention on the selection of a sand- wich.
mdp.39015054061430	How could she have been?
mdp.39015054061430	How long, she asked, would James be in New York?
mdp.39015054061430	I beg your pardon, did you say Mrs. Nilssen?"
mdp.39015054061430	I mean, if your friends sometimes go, can they?
mdp.39015054061430	I mean, to your father? ”"I — I do n't know, ” stammered the girl, feeling pushed down to the uttermost depths of ignominy.
mdp.39015054061430	I wonder 132 QUICKS AND how she inveigled Anderson?
mdp.39015054061430	I wonder where I'm gon na die, Being neither white nor black?
mdp.39015054061430	If she pretended to distress?
mdp.39015054061430	In fact I detest it. ”"Why? ” Helga was striving hard to be casual in her manner.
mdp.39015054061430	Is n't he lovely?
mdp.39015054061430	It is, is it not, the proper thing?
mdp.39015054061430	It was, Helga decided, now only a big knife with cruelly sharp edges?
mdp.39015054061430	Just the same, what or who was there to hold her back?
mdp.39015054061430	Just what goes on that's so terrible? ” “ Why, they drink, for one thing.
mdp.39015054061430	Just what had happened to her there in that cool dim room under the quizzical gaze of those piercing gray eyes?
mdp.39015054061430	Mind if I run off?
mdp.39015054061430	Naxos?
mdp.39015054061430	Nice, is n't he?
mdp.39015054061430	Or had he paid her only a rather florid compliment, in somewhat dubious taste?
mdp.39015054061430	Packing, money, trains, and could she get a berth?
mdp.39015054061430	Please, may I be excused? ” At his courteous “ Certainly, certainly.
mdp.39015054061430	She ought to be ostracized. ” “ Why?"
mdp.39015054061430	She, Helga Crane, who almost all her life had looked after herself, was she now to be looked after by Aunt Katrina and her husband?
mdp.39015054061430	Sleep in or out?
mdp.39015054061430	Telephone?
mdp.39015054061430	The hostile"Well? ” of this new sery- ant forcibly recalled the reason for her pres- ence there.
mdp.39015054061430	Thirty dollars?
mdp.39015054061430	To fear?
mdp.39015054061430	To remorse?
mdp.39015054061430	Was it possible?
mdp.39015054061430	Was she to be forever explaining her people — or lack of them?
mdp.39015054061430	Was there, she inquired, anything that she needed to know?
mdp.39015054061430	Was there, without her knowing it, some peculiar lack in her?
mdp.39015054061430	Well, he is n't ex- actly your uncle, is he?
mdp.39015054061430	What about him?"
mdp.39015054061430	What did it matter that he consumed his food, even the softest varieties, audibly?
mdp.39015054061430	What did it matter that he failed to wash his fat body, or to shift his clothing, as often as Helga her- self did?
mdp.39015054061430	What did it matter that, though he did no work with his hands, not even in the garden, his finger- nails were always rimmed with black?
mdp.39015054061430	What did it matter to him?
mdp.39015054061430	What did it matter?
mdp.39015054061430	What kind?
mdp.39015054061430	What nonsense is this?"
mdp.39015054061430	What should she wear?
mdp.39015054061430	What was it that stood in her way?
mdp.39015054061430	What? ” This last was accompanied with an arch and insinu- ating smile.
mdp.39015054061430	White?
mdp.39015054061430	Who is she? ”"She's Audrey Denney, as I said, and she lives downtown.
mdp.39015054061430	Who knows?
mdp.39015054061430	Who knows?
mdp.39015054061430	Who slammed the shower- baths door? ” Silence.
mdp.39015054061430	Who would n't like it?
mdp.39015054061430	Why bother, when she could add nothing to the obvious fact that she had been a fool?
mdp.39015054061430	Why could n't she be happy, content, somewhere?
mdp.39015054061430	Why could n't she have two lives, or why could n't she be satisfied in one place?
mdp.39015054061430	Why had n't she grasped his meaning?
mdp.39015054061430	Why must the race problem always creep in?
mdp.39015054061430	Why should she mind if 35 QUICKS AND it did?
mdp.39015054061430	Why subtly indicated that she was different?
mdp.39015054061430	Why their constant begging to be considered as exact copies of other people?
mdp.39015054061430	Why, Helga wondered, with unreason- ing exasperation, did n't they find something else to talk of?
mdp.39015054061430	Why, if she had said so much, had n't she said more about herself and her mother?
mdp.39015054061430	Why, she de- manded in fierce rebellion, should she be yoked, to these despised black folk?
mdp.39015054061430	Why, she won- dered, did n't someone write A Plea for Color?
mdp.39015054061430	Why, she wondered, had n't her mother consented?
mdp.39015054061430	Why, then, had she refused, ignored, his other, earlier suggestion?
mdp.39015054061430	Why?
mdp.39015054061430	Why?
mdp.39015054061430	Would it be all right if they did n't know she was colored?"
mdp.39015054061430	Yet she had continued to try not only to teach, but to befriend those happy?
mdp.39015054061430	You do n't like the school?"
mdp.39015054061430	You do n't perhaps like Olsen? ” Helga had been silent, thinking what a severe wrench to Herr Dahl's ideas of decency was this conversation.
mdp.39015054061430	You're still at Naxos?"
mdp.39015054061430	Your checks? ” also in English, and then lapsed into Danish.
mdp.39015054061430	Your mother was n't married, was she?
mdp.39015054061430	ings?
mdp.39015054061430	“ And does it?"
mdp.39015054061430	“ And just what do you think it is? ”"I'm afraid it's hard to explain, but I suppose it's just that we like to be together.
mdp.39015054061430	“ But, ” said Helga Crane, “ what of that?
mdp.39015054061430	“ Ca n't you, wo n't you understand, Uncle Poul?"
mdp.39015054061430	“ He likes you? ”"I do n't know.
mdp.39015054061430	“ He's coming?"
mdp.39015054061430	“ It is, ” she said, “ a pleasure to renew our ac- quaintance. ” Was it, she was wondering, merely an acquaintance?
mdp.39015054061430	“ Jesus?
mdp.39015054061430	“ Just what is it, Helga? ” he asked again, because the pause had grown awkward, for him.
mdp.39015054061430	“ Naxos, the place?
mdp.39015054061430	“ The school?
mdp.39015054061430	“ What about him?"
mdp.39015054061430	“ What is it, Ida? ” A woman's soft voice sounded from within.
mdp.39015054061430	“ Where, Helen did you get him?"
mdp.39015054061430	“ Why? ” The question was detached, too detached.
mdp.39015054061430	“ Will you see Mrs. Nilssen? ”.
mdp.39015054061430	“ Yes? ” she inquired.
mdp.39015054061430	“ You see, you understand? ” he urged.
uiug.30112003263263	A thief and a murderer I never would marry! ” “ What do you mean? ” he cried, hoarsely, his face ghastly pale.
uiug.30112003263263	Am I to die such a horrible death? ” she moaned piteously Is she?
uiug.30112003263263	Am I to die such a horrible death? ” she moaned piteously Is she?
uiug.30112003263263	And Viola?
uiug.30112003263263	Are you ill? ” Recovering herself with a supreme effort, she was just about to reply when there was an interruption.
uiug.30112003263263	Bertram, why are you not rich?
uiug.30112003263263	But what can I do? ” “ What can you do? ” she echoed, eagerly.
uiug.30112003263263	But what can I do? ” “ What can you do? ” she echoed, eagerly.
uiug.30112003263263	But — but you know better, do n’t you, Bertram?
uiug.30112003263263	But, who are you? ” “ Dat's all right, honey, ” said Aunt Clory, “ but you'se in good hands.
uiug.30112003263263	Ca n't you see that that is forgery? ” A swift pallor shot across his face.
uiug.30112003263263	Did Bertram have any dishonest persons in his employ?
uiug.30112003263263	Did he know that she had been to the house?
uiug.30112003263263	Do n't you see that I am getting thinner and thinner every day?
uiug.30112003263263	Do you hear?
uiug.30112003263263	Do you think it can be done?
uiug.30112003263263	Good Heavens, Mrs. Hawthorne, what do you mean? ” Mrs. Hawthorne aroused herself.
uiug.30112003263263	Have you a certificate? ” Bessie faltered for a moment.
uiug.30112003263263	Have you heard the news? ” “ News? ” echoed some one else.
uiug.30112003263263	Have you heard the news? ” “ News? ” echoed some one else.
uiug.30112003263263	Have you no kind word for me?
uiug.30112003263263	Hawthorne I have come to you on a mis- sion of mercy. ” “ Is that so? ” in surprise.
uiug.30112003263263	He was not doing it to pass away the time? ” “ No, he was not doing it PASSER LE TEMPS.
uiug.30112003263263	How came I to take up my abode here?
uiug.30112003263263	How can it be?
uiug.30112003263263	How did you happen to fail? ” “ Well, you men went off on your own hooks and I had to employ strangers to do the job.
uiug.30112003263263	How do you know he has a wife living? ” “ Because I am his wife. ” The minister frowned as the words rang out clear and firm.
uiug.30112003263263	How do you like them?
uiug.30112003263263	How is father and mother? ” she continued, breathlessly.
uiug.30112003263263	How is this?
uiug.30112003263263	I can not do as you suggest. ” ‘ Why ca n't you? ” “ For the simple reason that I do not love you.
uiug.30112003263263	I thought you loved my daughter, or else why did you win her heart and offer to marry her? ” “ Mrs.
uiug.30112003263263	Il How can you say such a thing?
uiug.30112003263263	Mr. Quimby asked: “ Have I the honor of addressing Mr. Turpin, the detective? ” “ I am he.
uiug.30112003263263	Now stick to it. ” “ I selected my own destiny?
uiug.30112003263263	Pres- ently he muttered: “ I wonder what it all means?
uiug.30112003263263	Say, miss, if they're so rich, why do n't they do somethin about findin'you?
uiug.30112003263263	Should he spoil both their lives by doing this wicked thing?

uiug.30112003263263	So, recovering herself, she asked, laughingly: “ What do you mean? ” “ You know what I mean, ” said he angrily, stung by her manner.
uiug.30112003263263	The girl she feared — dead?
uiug.30112003263263	There was a long pause, which was at last broken hy Mona, who asked: “ Did you love her? ” “ Did I love her? ” in surprise.
uiug.30112003263263	There was a long pause, which was at last broken hy Mona, who asked: “ Did you love her? ” “ Did I love her? ” in surprise.
uiug.30112003263263	This was not the servants'part of the house and if she was a servant what did she want there?
uiug.30112003263263	To whom am I indebted for the pleas- ure of this visit? ” The banker handed him his card.
uiug.30112003263263	Was he a fickle man, that his love could change with every pretty face he met?
uiug.30112003263263	Was not everybody aware of Viola's death?
uiug.30112003263263	Was she mistaken?
uiug.30112003263263	Was this true?
uiug.30112003263263	What did it mean?
uiug.30112003263263	What did it mean?
uiug.30112003263263	What did it mean?
uiug.30112003263263	What have I done? ” she asked piteously.
uiug.30112003263263	What if it were a forgery?
uiug.30112003263263	What right have you to com- mit this outrage? ” “ By the right of the law, ” sternly.
uiug.30112003263263	What was it?
uiug.30112003263263	What was she doing sneak- ing in this portion of the house?
uiug.30112003263263	What was she to him that he should waste the best years of his life to make her happy?
uiug.30112003263263	What would he do?
uiug.30112003263263	When did you cease to love me — I, who loved you first and 62 best?
uiug.30112003263263	When she found I had not come to re- lease her, she — she became desperate. ” “ Is that all? ” sneeringly.
uiug.30112003263263	Where could she go?
uiug.30112003263263	Where had she gone?
uiug.30112003263263	Which did he love?
uiug.30112003263263	Who could have any object in doing such a thing? ” • “ My mother, ” she said, sharply.
uiug.30112003263263	Who was it that poisoned my mind against marrying Bertram?
uiug.30112003263263	Who was it that told me to angle for Philip Clayton and forget the beggarly editor?
uiug.30112003263263	Why am I not rich or why are you not poor?
uiug.30112003263263	Why did n't I perish over the precipice? ” The woman had stepped from the room as soon as he had entered it.
uiug.30112003263263	Why did you cause her death?
uiug.30112003263263	Why did you come here? ” An angry fire flashed into the eyes of Mona.
uiug.30112003263263	Why did you do it? ” He had advanced upon her menacingly, his eyes blazing, his splendid physique trembling with pas- sion.
uiug.30112003263263	Why do you ask, dearest? ” “ Because — because you are so — so far above me.
uiug.30112003263263	Why has n't she been buried? ” “ Because she is gone. ” II9 “ How is that, chief?
uiug.30112003263263	Why has n't she been buried? ” “ Because she is gone. ” II9 “ How is that, chief?
uiug.30112003263263	Why has n't they found you, eh? ” Viola saw that the woman was not to be convinced and with a last wail of despair, cried: “ Oh!
uiug.30112003263263	Why was it?
uiug.30112003263263	Will you accept me at such an ex- pense? ” “ Yes, gladly.
uiug.30112003263263	Will you become my wife? ” Her lovely face had slowly become paler and paler.
uiug.30112003263263	Will you give me this waltz? ” “ Yes if you wish it, ” she said lightly.
uiug.30112003263263	Would he avenge the girl's death by informing Bertram of her sin?
uiug.30112003263263	Would he betray her for the part she had played in it?
uiug.30112003263263	Would nothing save her?
uiug.30112003263263	Would you like to hear my story? ” “ I would, ever so much, if it does not pain you to tell it. ” “ Indeed, it does not.
uiug.30112003263263	what's dis? ” he muttered as he felt some- thing hard on the inside.
uiug.30112003263263	“ And why am I here? ” The woman put her finger to her lips as if to en- join silence.
uiug.30112003263263	“ And — and, is she — have they buried her? ” “ No. ” “ And why? ” with a frown.
uiug.30112003263263	“ And — and, is she — have they buried her? ” “ No. ” “ And why? ” with a frown.
uiug.30112003263263	“ Are they anxious about me?
uiug.30112003263263	“ Arnold, why did you marry me, if you did not love me? ” she asked piteously.
uiug.30112003263263	“ But is she a spy?
uiug.30112003263263	“ But the note I sent you?
uiug.30112003263263	“ Can you prove what you say, my good woman?
uiug.30112003263263	“ Did Mona, my own child, tell that wicked lie? ” She asked, more to herself than to him, 127 “ Lie!
uiug.30112003263263	“ Did you think they might squeal on us? ” “ No.
uiug.30112003263263	“ Do you really love me so much? ” she faltered, her eyelids drooping bashfully.
uiug.30112003263263	“ Do you recognize her? ” he asked, gently.
uiug.30112003263263	“ Do you think I would ask her to be my wife if I did not? ” “ True, true.
uiug.30112003263263	“ Has a wife living? ” said the minister.
uiug.30112003263263	“ I heard him ring, and came to the head of the stairs; my mother answered the bell, and I heard her say: “ What is it?
uiug.30112003263263	“ I pronounce this marriage a sacrilege, and forbid it to proceed any further. ” “ Why, my dear woman? ” asked the minister, seri- ously.
uiug.30112003263263	“ Mona, dar- ling, wo n’t you be my wife? ” “ Yes, if you wish it, ” she replied quietly.
uiug.30112003263263	“ Must you really go so soon? ” he inquired, with well- assumed sorrow.
uiug.30112003263263	“ My darling, ” he cried pas- sionately, “ have you not seen that I love you with all my soul?
uiug.30112003263263	“ Oh, why did you leave me all alone?
uiug.30112003263263	“ Shall I tell you?
uiug.30112003263263	“ What does it all mean? ” Bessie was trembling like an aspen, and could not speak from horror.
uiug.30112003263263	“ What have you done?
uiug.30112003263263	“ What have you done? ” he echoed harshly.
uiug.30112003263263	“ What is Mr. Quimby to you? ” he asked quickly.
uiug.30112003263263	“ What is it, mother?'
uiug.30112003263263	“ What is the matter, Arnold?
uiug.30112003263263	“ What is the trouble? ” asked Bertram, who had just arrived.
uiug.30112003263263	“ What was that? ” She could have sworn that she saw a dark- robed figure skulking along in the shrubbery.
uiug.30112003263263	“ When are you going to tackle the house, boss? ” said a course voice.
uiug.30112003263263	“ Where am I? ” she asked, feebly, passing her hand slowly over her eyes.
uiug.30112003263263	“ Where am I? ” she asked, “ how came I — Oh, I remember all now.
uiug.30112003263263	“ Who am I? ” quizzically echoed the old man.
uiug.30112003263263	“ Why did I come here? ” she echoed, advancing meaningly up to the girl.
uiug.30112003263263	“ Why did I marry you?
uiug.30112003263263	“ Why do you look like that?
uiug.30112003263263	“ Why, indeed?
uiug.30112003263263	“ Yes, who are you?

osu.32435017886441	Am I beau- tiful? ” asked Eina of herself.
osu.32435017886441	And do you think that I have fallen a vic- tim to his charms and — at sight, too?
osu.32435017886441	As Baug arose to speak, practically every per- son in the audience was inclined to turn to his neighbor and ask, “ Who is that fellow?
osu.32435017886441	But I taught her the right way all right, the crazy thing. ” “ Oh, she is really crazy, then? ” remarked Mo- lair.
osu.32435017886441	But how in the name of common Sense is that to be dome is the question? ” “ Now dat is whut I wants ter talk wid yer erbout.
osu.32435017886441	By the way, where is your mother? ” asked Mrs. Molair.
osu.32435017886441	Can you conceive of the whole Soul of the white race being in travail and giving birth to such a man?
osu.32435017886441	Come quick. ’ “ Whut erbout de gal? ” he said ter me.
osu.32435017886441	Continuing Mr. Molair said: “ Is this not pe- culiarly your problem?
osu.32435017886441	Cordially, “ EINA RAPONA. ” “ Will I?
osu.32435017886441	Did not Seth tell you about the handicaps affecting the colored race? ” asked Mrs. Molair.

osu.32435017886441	Do n’t we bury corpses?
osu.32435017886441	Elsewhere I am an unfettered man, the human being. ” “ Why can you not come to my home? ” asked Eina.

osu.32435017886441	Holler?
osu.32435017886441	How did you manage to get along?
osu.32435017886441	How do you account for your mil- itary carriage? ” “ Hah, hah, ” laughed Uncle Jack, his dark face beaming with pride.
osu.32435017886441	How does that come? ” asked Mrs. Molair.

osu.32435017886441	If you want a man to stay colored, why in the name of God do n’t you treat him right as colored?
osu.32435017886441	In keeping with this purpose Eina wrote the following note: “ My Dear Mr. Peppers: Will you please call at my home at eight o’clock this evening?
osu.32435017886441	Is he dead? ” cried Clotille, dropping to her knees, clasping her hands, her heart the home of agony.
osu.32435017886441	Is it not time for me to sit up and take notice? ” “ Eina changeth not, Clotille. ” “ My dear, dear girl, I do not misjudge you.
osu.32435017886441	Is the gent in question Belrose's all- conquering gal- lant?
osu.32435017886441	Is there any way, Uncle Jack, I can get out to see you a little oftener?
osu.32435017886441	Molair, ” said Baug, earnestly, “ what else could you expect?
osu.32435017886441	Now that you know what his name is at least said to be, what have you further to say? ” asked Clotille.
osu.32435017886441	Now what have you to say to that? ” “ Absolutely nothing, Mr. President, ” said Mo- lair.
osu.32435017886441	Now, Mr. Molair, will you agree to do as much in the South?
osu.32435017886441	Of course Miss Letitia was there, for when had she missed a fire since there had been col- Ored firemen?
osu.32435017886441	Pray what on earth is the matter? ” said Clotille.
osu.32435017886441	Read this letter, will you?
osu.32435017886441	The Chief Justice took Baug in hand and said: “ You say every one seems to have seen or met you before? ” “ Yes, ” replied Baug.
osu.32435017886441	Was it fate that sug- gested it?
osu.32435017886441	What ails him? ” asked Mrs. Martin, eagerly.
osu.32435017886441	Which will you enter? ”- Molair now stood up and bent his gaze upon the bowed head of the troubled girl before him.
osu.32435017886441	Who hitched up fur yer? ” said Uncle Jack loudly, mov- ing off towards Clotille's buggy and beckoning for her to follow.
osu.32435017886441	Who on earth knows where I came from?
osu.32435017886441	Why did you laugh when I made my inquiry con- cerning the man with his hat in his hand?
osu.32435017886441	Why, her request is just about as reasonable as though she asked me not to breathel And you have been expecting it? ” Stormed Baug.
osu.32435017886441	Will I call to see Miss Rapona?
osu.32435017886441	Will a bee draw nectar from a flower?
osu.32435017886441	Will a pig eat corn?
osu.32435017886441	Will you do this for me?
osu.32435017886441	Will you not come? ” Again there came into Eina ’s mind the face of the man of mystery.

osu.32435017886441	“ But, Mr. Molair, is there no hope? ” asked Eina.
osu.32435017886441	“ By the way, is the man with the face of mys- tery a colored man or a white man?
osu.32435017886441	“ Crazy?
osu.32435017886441	“ Does she love Baug? ” asked Eina.
osu.32435017886441	“ Expecting Miss Rapona to deny me the privi- lege of seeing her?
osu.32435017886441	“ Expecting it? ” roared Baug.
osu.32435017886441	“ Gone mad? ” asked Molair, in surprise.
osu.32435017886441	“ Has the world judged aright?
osu.32435017886441	“ How do the colored people of Belrose fare at the hands of the police force? ” asked Molair.
osu.32435017886441	“ How does this in your judgment affect the col- ored people? ” asked Molair.
osu.32435017886441	“ Is life worth living? ” Such was the question that the sad, torn heart of Eina now asked over and over again.
osu.32435017886441	“ Jack, ” said the woman, “ do n’t you know bet- ter than to try to leave here without telling me what you came to tell me?
osu.32435017886441	“ Miss Eina, do yer think de bes ’ white peo- ple will evah'gree ter wuk'long wid de cullud people in de same perlittercul yoke?
osu.32435017886441	“ No One is able to state when or where? ” “ Absolutely no one, ” said Baug.
osu.32435017886441	“ Now what am I to do to balk this game?
osu.32435017886441	“ Now, Clotille, at what are you laughing?
osu.32435017886441	“ Now, how are we to get this homogeneiety?
osu.32435017886441	“ Oh, is he dead?
osu.32435017886441	“ Oh, is that it, you think? ” said Clotille, begin- ning to grasp the meaning of the note which had been handed her.
osu.32435017886441	“ On which side of this gulf is the man with the face of mystery? ” was the thought that now came into Eina ’s mind.
osu.32435017886441	“ Others have died on the football ground, and why may not I? ” was the cry of his heart.
osu.32435017886441	“ Pardon me, but what is your blood? ” asked Molair.
osu.32435017886441	“ Really white? ” she asked.
osu.32435017886441	“ See my little boy yonder, Conroe, Jr.?
osu.32435017886441	“ Wal, yer all wants ter know what I'se heah fur, do n’t yer? ” said Uncle Jack.
osu.32435017886441	“ What have you done?
osu.32435017886441	“ What is it now, Uncle Jack? ” asked Eina, coaxingly.
osu.32435017886441	“ What is the matter? ” inquired Eina, anxiously.
osu.32435017886441	“ When 2 Where? ” asked Clotille.

osu.32435017886441	“ Who is your father? ” asked Justice Morrow, putting a little greater distance between Baug and himself.
osu.32435017886441	“ Who stays with you at your home, Miss Rapona? ” asked Molair.
osu.32435017886441	“ Whut is er kannerbull, miss, please, miss?

osu.32435017886441	“ Why, dear Uncle Jack, what on earth is the Imatter? ” Uncle Jack was shivering from head to foot.
osu.32435017886441	“ Would you white people of the South accept me? ” asked Eina.
osu.32435017886441	“ You and my Clotille are fast friends, I be- lieve? ” said Miss Letitia.

mdp.39015010962861	What work? mdp.39015010962861 Where are you going?"
mdp.39015010962861	Where has Tobe Stewart gone?
mdp.39015010962861	Where is Miss Merlow?
mdp.39015010962861	Where where is my room?
mdp.39015010962861	Why not?
mdp.39015010962861	Why so much haste?
mdp.39015010962861	Will you kindly withdraw?
mdp.39015010962861	Will you lose your life trying to perteck me?
mdp.39015010962861	Woman, is that true? mdp.39015010962861 Would you cast aspersions upon a person's character and treat the matter so lightly?"
mdp.39015010962861	You are from the North and rate the South- ern women as being beneath your notice, do you?
mdp.39015010962861	You have just got in, have you?
mdp.39015010962861	You killed him, then?
mdp.39015010962861	You wench, you, you ca n't speak can you? mdp.39015010962861 'Well, you got him, did n't you?' mdp.39015010962861 11? mdp.39015010962861 137 the ages is being enacted? mdp.39015010962861 139Have you read the morning paper?"
mdp.39015010962861	And all this havoc to be laid at my door?"
mdp.39015010962861	And what had the fish caught?
mdp.39015010962861	Are you a fool?"
mdp.39015010962861	Are you a part of the American nation or a thing apart?
mdp.39015010962861	Are you as anxious to see every one whom you have defended as you are to see this one?"
mdp.39015010962861	At length the question crept into her consciousness:"Why are you so enraged?
mdp.39015010962861	At night did I sleep er wink wen dare wuz eny t'ing lackly ter pester de wimmins?"
mdp.39015010962861	Blue?"
mdp.39015010962861	But you would prefer being the ones living to make the fight, would you not?"
mdp.39015010962861	Ca n't you see that your race is simply preserved be- cause it is not yet in the way of the white race?"
mdp.39015010962861	Ca n't you see the awful significance of that fact?
mdp.39015010962861	Can I save him?"
mdp.39015010962861	Chance, blind chance, so far as she? ould see, had her fate in hand, and to all the( 214) WORKING AND WAITING.
mdp.39015010962861	Crucified at the stake, while we men play the part of women, for, what can we do?"
mdp.39015010962861	Did not God use plagues and a wholesale slaughter to solve the Egyptian race problem?
mdp.39015010962861	Didunt dis heah same Silas do dat?"
mdp.39015010962861	Do you approve of his marriage to a white woman?"
mdp.39015010962861	Does not my soul respond to those things and those things only to which their souls respond?
mdp.39015010962861	Earl, are you a South- erner?
mdp.39015010962861	Earl, ca n't you persuade the peo- ple to let justice do now what they are waiting for'time'to do?"
mdp.39015010962861	Ellwood?"
mdp.39015010962861	Eunice whirled around the room gayly and said with childish glee,"You will then die with us, will you?
mdp.39015010962861	Granting that the present is the time to act, what would you do?"
mdp.39015010962861	Great God of heaven, can all this be true?
mdp.39015010962861	Have they found me out?
mdp.39015010962861	Have we gone back to the days of the cannibal kings, when it was deemed a virtue for a subject to lay down his life to salisfy a whim of his master?
mdp.39015010962861	Have you murdered some one?"
mdp.39015010962861	ILSY BROOKS, would you'low me er few wurds wid you?"
mdp.39015010962861	If I give up to you will you perteck me?"
mdp.39015010962861	If one mistake has been made, who can say that two have n't been made?
mdp.39015010962861	In his heart there was the harking back to times more than a thou- sand years ago — to times when his race was a( 10S)''What have you done?'
mdp.39015010962861	Is her real murderer yet alive?"
mdp.39015010962861	Is it a bargain?"
mdp.39015010962861	Is the issue clearly enough drawn between us?"
mdp.39015010962861	Is the man thought to have been killed yet alive?
mdp.39015010962861	Is the sweet Alene- gone?
mdp.39015010962861	Is there hope for him?"
mdp.39015010962861	Is there, can there be any hope for the Negro here or elsewhere?"
mdp.39015010962861	Ken 1 peddle limonade nigh de co't rouse do', sah, yer honah?"
mdp.39015010962861	Laying it on the table he crossed his hands upon it and said:"Will you hear me patiently?
mdp.39015010962861	Life?"
mdp.39015010962861	May I make the engagement?"
mdp.39015010962861	Must I go through life unsupported by the brave heart of Alene on which I was depend- ing for strength to conquer worlds?"
mdp.39015010962861	Now and then he would pause and ask himself:"Is all this horror'true?
mdp.39015010962861	Now jes'tell me whut?"
mdp.39015010962861	O what has lain hold of me?"
mdp.39015010962861	Rubbish aside, am I not as much of an Anglo- Saxon as any of them?
mdp.39015010962861	See?"
mdp.39015010962861	Shall you be more righteous than God?"
mdp.39015010962861	Stopping, he said,"Say, now, Foresta, is your mama hurt?"
mdp.39015010962861	That is the question?
mdp.39015010962861	Then he asked slowly:"Do you make that proposition to me, a follow-; er of the Christ?"
mdp.39015010962861	They ca n't destroy our love for one another, can they?"
mdp.39015010962861	Was the dear one foully murdered while I slept?
mdp.39015010962861	Wen I wuz a lad in slabery time, didunt I dribe my young missus'bout whar'eber she went?
mdp.39015010962861	What do you mean by hanging around and going to school on our time?"
mdp.39015010962861	What welder of steel can beat into one the discordant soul forces of willing Negroes and un- willing whites, the really pivotal point of the problem?
mdp.39015010962861	What's the use crying?
mdp.39015010962861	When has a theory or sentiment of any kind been allowed to stand in the way of his interests?"
mdp.39015010962861	Where?
mdp.39015010962861	Will you per- teck my life if I surrender to this heah sheriff?
mdp.39015010962861	With a tight grip on her arm he said,"Have you, too, blighted somebody's happiness?
mdp.39015010962861	With these facts and only these, can you name me, can you place me in touch with your friends?"
mdp.39015010962861	You are tired listening to my foolishness, are n't you?"
mdp.39015010962861	floatin', and whut will it do fur me?
mdp.39015011800169	And are you sure it wo n't be Senator Taft?
mdp.39015011800169	Are you living in the city now?
mdp.39015011800169	Are you still at the same job?
mdp.39015011800169	At what?
mdp.39015011800169	But what did I do to you?
mdp.39015011800169	Damn, are n't you cold, Kriss- baby?
mdp.39015011800169	Did you do what I told you to do?
mdp.39015011800169	Did your mother tell you I was a whore? mdp.39015011800169 Do n't you know Mr. Robinson yet?"
mdp.39015011800169	Do you ever see Maud?
mdp.39015011800169	Do you have any place in mind?
mdp.39015011800169	Do you know all of them, dear?
mdp.39015011800169	Do you want to hear this story or not?
mdp.39015011800169	Does n't that sound like wonderful doctrine?
mdp.39015011800169	Does that answer your questions?
mdp.39015011800169	Expecting company?
mdp.39015011800169	For God's sake, Kriss ca n't we do a simple business transaction without a sordid fight?
mdp.39015011800169	Got it all figured out, have n't you, boy?
mdp.39015011800169	Have you seen the Monet exhibition?
mdp.39015011800169	Hello, Kriss- baby, did you have a good time?
mdp.39015011800169	Hello, is this the Windemere Hotel?
mdp.39015011800169	How about Nick's?
mdp.39015011800169	How is Ed?
mdp.39015011800169	I just love Imogene Coca, do n't you?
mdp.39015011800169	If I may be so bold as to ask, what are you thinking, ma- dame?
mdp.39015011800169	Is he a sociologist too?
mdp.39015011800169	Is that what the louse is worried about — his honor?
mdp.39015011800169	Jesse Robinson?
mdp.39015011800169	Miz Cummons, anything mo y'all need?
mdp.39015011800169	No one recognized you, I hope?
mdp.39015011800169	Now what?
mdp.39015011800169	Oh, sure,he said, thinking,"I like de big gut, do you like de big gut?"
mdp.39015011800169	Paraldehyde? mdp.39015011800169 Ready to light out and run, eh, son?"
mdp.39015011800169	Robinson?
mdp.39015011800169	Satire? mdp.39015011800169 That reminds me of a joke one of my landladies used to tell —"he began but she interrupted rudely,"Are you going to make the drinks, Jesse?"
mdp.39015011800169	They always return to the scene — what kind of detective stories you been reading, you do n't know that?
mdp.39015011800169	Want some eggs, baby?
mdp.39015011800169	Was some woman's husband trying to trap you?
mdp.39015011800169	Well, what will happen after that?
mdp.39015011800169	What I really ought to have told the half- wit,he thought,"is why do n't you read the Old Testa- ment, son?
mdp.39015011800169	What about sausage, madame?
mdp.39015011800169	What about whiskey?
mdp.39015011800169	What am I bid?
mdp.39015011800169	What are you thinking about, dear?
mdp.39015011800169	What did I do? mdp.39015011800169 What happened between you and Maud?
mdp.39015011800169	What have you been doing lately?
mdp.39015011800169	What is protest but satire?
mdp.39015011800169	What time shall I call for you?
mdp.39015011800169	What's he doing now?
mdp.39015011800169	What's protest about this book?
mdp.39015011800169	What's the title?
mdp.39015011800169	What?
mdp.39015011800169	What?
mdp.39015011800169	What?
mdp.39015011800169	When is that, dear?
mdp.39015011800169	Where have you been, dear?
mdp.39015011800169	Where'd you study psychiatry?
mdp.39015011800169	Who cares?
mdp.39015011800169	Who do you think will get the Republican nomination for President?
mdp.39015011800169	Who times these things?
mdp.39015011800169	Why did n't you marry me in Chicago, Jesse? mdp.39015011800169 Why did you do that to me?"
mdp.39015011800169	Why did you do that to me?
mdp.39015011800169	Why do you do it then?
mdp.39015011800169	Why do you lie to me?
mdp.39015011800169	Why do you refuse to give your bit of sausage like the other hogs do?
mdp.39015011800169	Why not publish it as an autobiography then?
mdp.39015011800169	Why not?
mdp.39015011800169	Why — what's the trouble, Anne?
mdp.39015011800169	Will you have eggs, chicken? mdp.39015011800169 Would n't believe that about a nigger, would you?"
mdp.39015011800169	Would you rather be slaughtered and butchered by the sausage manufacturers, or give us, your friends, a little bit of sausage each day?
mdp.39015011800169	You damned fool, what are you doing this for?
mdp.39015011800169	You did n't let her do that, baby? mdp.39015011800169 You know Garner, Jesse?"
mdp.39015011800169	You were looking for a street, eh, son?
mdp.39015011800169	14"What do you think of General Eisenhower's chances of being elected?"
mdp.39015011800169	After a moment he asked,"Why should she care?
mdp.39015011800169	After a moment she thought,"Spooning?
mdp.39015011800169	And when his mind came back he heard Kriss saying,"How is it with you and Garner, baby?"
mdp.39015011800169	Anything else you want me to think about, dear?"
mdp.39015011800169	Are you overwrought?
mdp.39015011800169	Are you surprised?"
mdp.39015011800169	Arty was by Monday — you've met him?"
mdp.39015011800169	But aloud he asked,"What happened to you and Ted?
mdp.39015011800169	But not ten gallons?"
mdp.39015011800169	But whar de body of Jesse Robinson?
mdp.39015011800169	But why the hell did he have to come crawling around to her place every time he got helplessly drunk?
mdp.39015011800169	Do n't you feel embarrassed on climbing into bed with some strange man with your dirty feet?"
mdp.39015011800169	Do you have a stale brown taste of biliousness on arising?"
mdp.39015011800169	Do you suffer from morning depression?
mdp.39015011800169	Funny... Are you absolutely sure there was a Jesse Robin- son?
mdp.39015011800169	Harold was saying while Jesse glared at Kriss,"Did you read it?
mdp.39015011800169	Has he gone?"
mdp.39015011800169	He deserved it if anyone ever did, and she wished she felt it now as she said with cold venom,"Have you murdered your wife?"
mdp.39015011800169	He had countered,"White people, you mean?"
mdp.39015011800169	He had thought nothing of it until the woman at his left asked,"How much did he charge you for your ale?"
mdp.39015011800169	He'd scarcely touched his glass but she asked sweetly,"Would you like another drink, dear?"
mdp.39015011800169	How come you have to be the only one to act a fool?
mdp.39015011800169	How could they arrest him?
mdp.39015011800169	How could they?
mdp.39015011800169	How do these people do it, son?
mdp.39015011800169	How is it they keep their wives, bring up children, get along?
mdp.39015011800169	I'm not good enough for you?"
mdp.39015011800169	It was none of her business, was it?"
mdp.39015011800169	Now Anne looked solidly at Dorothy, but bit back the words,"You do n't say?"
mdp.39015011800169	Or New Haven?
mdp.39015011800169	Or did you find it out by yourself?"
mdp.39015011800169	Or have you changed to Kummel?"
mdp.39015011800169	Or that both are not equally senseless?"
mdp.39015011800169	Or would an Englishman say •play hell?'
mdp.39015011800169	Prom- ise?"
mdp.39015011800169	She glanced at her watch and said, hurtingly,"Shall we go now, or do we drink our dinner?"
mdp.39015011800169	She had turned the volume tpo high and a booming jovial voice issued from the smiling lip's of the happy face:"Are you overweight?
mdp.39015011800169	She thought smilingly of that classic bit of dialogue by Hemingway:"What are you thinking, darling?"
mdp.39015011800169	She took her glass for a refill, and asked him, grinning mis- chievously,"Scotch still?
mdp.39015011800169	She was silent for a moment, then asked,"When's your book to be published?"
mdp.39015011800169	Suddenly realizing he'd slept on a sheet he asked wonderingly,"Did you make the sofa?"
mdp.39015011800169	That's what you called me, remember?"
mdp.39015011800169	The same one?
mdp.39015011800169	Then he recalled an editor who had rejected his second book, complaining,"Why do you fellows always write this kind of thing?
mdp.39015011800169	There was a pause and she asked,"Is your wife with you?"
mdp.39015011800169	Well, why not?
mdp.39015011800169	What do you think?"
mdp.39015011800169	What time is it, baby?"
mdp.39015011800169	Where was Bebe?
mdp.39015011800169	While mixing the drinks he called,"Shall I start dinner, baby?"
mdp.39015011800169	Who're we gon na be working for?
mdp.39015011800169	Why Bridgeport?
mdp.39015011800169	Why ca n't you believe too?
mdp.39015011800169	Why did n't you have him?
mdp.39015011800169	Why did you do it?"
mdp.39015011800169	Why do you drink that awful stuff, baby?
mdp.39015011800169	Why not Yonkers?
mdp.39015011800169	Why?"
mdp.39015011800169	You don'hate white people, do you, baby?"
mdp.39015011800169	You have my address?"
mdp.39015011800169	You know you're invited to dinner?"
mdp.39015011800169	You like Don, do n't you, baby?"
mdp.39015011800169	and the laughing horsemen spurred their mounts toward him, one of them saying,"Who said you could write?"
mdp.39015011800169	ca n't you wait?
mdp.39015011800169	giggling—"had the Rabbi circumcise me, would I be Jewish enough for her then?"
mdp.39015011800169	good?
mdp.39015011800169	happened about that Chicago letter you were going to write for the New Democrat?
mdp.39015011800169	how about clean?
mdp.39015011800169	nice?
mdp.39015011800169	— Ah likes de big gut, do you likes the big gut?
mdp.39015011800169	— Who's Jesse Robinson?

mdp.39015004733401	Did you see him in ‘ Long Pants'? ” He was leaning closer now, and Emma Lou took note of a teakwood tan hand resting on her knee. mdp.39015004733401 Do you think every one is like you?
mdp.39015004733401	For a little while, yes. ” “ What made you dislike it? mdp.39015004733401 Have they pledged you?"
mdp.39015004733401	How did my friends insult you?
mdp.39015004733401	New student? ” she asked. mdp.39015004733401 Playing poker. ”"With whom? ”"Oh, the same gang.

mdp.39015004733401	What's the matter? mdp.39015004733401 What've they done now? ” Ray asked, reaching out to accept the glass Alva was handing him.
mdp.39015004733401	When can I see you, Sugar? ” Sugar! mdp.39015004733401 Where'd I go? ” Alva seemed surprised.
mdp.39015004733401	Where'd you go last night?
mdp.39015004733401	Who in the hell wants to be serious?
mdp.39015004733401	Why no. ” “ And they wo n't either. ”Why?"
mdp.39015004733401	Why not? mdp.39015004733401 Why the hell do n't you turn off that alarm?"
mdp.39015004733401	...?
mdp.39015004733401	44 THE BLACKER THE BERRY.."Whatcha grinnin'at? ” Bob chided Verne as Emma Lou passed out of earshot.
mdp.39015004733401	Ai n't you got no regard for your reputa- tion?
mdp.39015004733401	All right?
mdp.39015004733401	And were they not entitled, ipso facto, to more respect and opportunity and social acceptance than the more pure blooded Negroes?
mdp.39015004733401	Are you sure it is n't adopted. ” Or suppose they were like the college youth she had known in Southern California?
mdp.39015004733401	Braxton watched him disgustedly:"Watcha gettin'up so early for?
mdp.39015004733401	But was she a hired maid after hours, and in this environment?
mdp.39015004733401	But what's the idea? ” Geraldine wrinkled her brow.
mdp.39015004733401	But why did the people in the audience have to stare so?
mdp.39015004733401	College?
mdp.39015004733401	Cora was speaking:"Didya see that little girl in pink — the one with the scar on her face- dancing with that tall, lanky, one- armed man?
mdp.39015004733401	Could she think of noth- ing else?
mdp.39015004733401	Did n't they all know that Emma Lou Morgan was Boise high school's only nigger student?
mdp.39015004733401	Did n't they ever have any out in Salt Lake City? ”"Have they any chitterlings?"
mdp.39015004733401	Did n't they ever have any out in Salt Lake City? ”"Have they any chitterlings?"
mdp.39015004733401	Did n't they have any common sense?
mdp.39015004733401	Did n't they have any race pride or proper bringing up?
mdp.39015004733401	Did n't you set the clock?"
mdp.39015004733401	Do you understand that now? ” Emma Lou nodded again.
mdp.39015004733401	Don'tcha know this is Monday? ”"Shure, I know it's Monday, but I got ta go to Uncle's.
mdp.39015004733401	Eight o'clock?
mdp.39015004733401	Emma Lou?
mdp.39015004733401	Ever been to Small's? ” Emma Lou shook her head.
mdp.39015004733401	Geraldine in negligee, hair disarrayed, eyes sleepy, yet angry:"You mean you're going over there to live with that man? ”"Why not?
mdp.39015004733401	Geraldine in negligee, hair disarrayed, eyes sleepy, yet angry:"You mean you're going over there to live with that man? ”"Why not?
mdp.39015004733401	Get a diploma?-What did it mean to her?
mdp.39015004733401	Had n't she artificially lightened her skin about four or five shades until she was almost brown?
mdp.39015004733401	Had n't she been told that they would only use her for their sexua convenience?
mdp.39015004733401	Had n't she been warned that men did n't marry black girls?
mdp.39015004733401	Had she been drugged?
mdp.39015004733401	Here's a new wrinkle, white man ‘ passes'for Negro. ”"Why not?
mdp.39015004733401	How could the world be happy when she felt like she did?
mdp.39015004733401	I've been wondering where you were?"
mdp.39015004733401	Idiot, she berated herself, just because you've had one drink and seen your first cabaret entertainer, must your mind and body feel all aflame?
mdp.39015004733401	If you ca n't do anything else, why in the hell do n't you get a job? ” “ I do n't see you working, ” Braxton would answer.
mdp.39015004733401	Imagine people going to such bedlam Bacchanals?
mdp.39015004733401	Imagine people opening their flats to the public and charging any one who had the price to pay twenty- five cents to enter?
mdp.39015004733401	In love or something?"
mdp.39015004733401	Is that all?
mdp.39015004733401	It will serve to take her mind off herself. ” “ But suppose she gets foolish?"
mdp.39015004733401	No chance to say"When will I see you again? ”.
mdp.39015004733401	O, what the hell was the use?
mdp.39015004733401	Oh — why — why did I marry Jim Morgan? ” and she had gone into the usual crying fit which inevitably followed this self- put question.
mdp.39015004733401	One of the group of five had sighted Emma Lou as soon as she had sighted them:"Who's this? ” queried Helen Wheaton, a senior in the College of Law.
mdp.39015004733401	Part- time cleaning, fifty cents an hour, nine rooms, yeah?
mdp.39015004733401	She called out, “ Who is it?"
mdp.39015004733401	She's got sense. ” “ But, Joe, suppose she does forget herself with this man?
mdp.39015004733401	Suppose these friends of Alva's would not take kindly to her?
mdp.39015004733401	Suppose they were like Braxton, who invariably curled his lip when he saw her, and seldom spoke even as much as a word of greeting?
mdp.39015004733401	Surely not the studies?!"
mdp.39015004733401	THE BLACKER THE BERRY... 185 “ But, ” she had insisted, “ do n't they look you up and convict you of bigamy? ” “ Hell, no.
mdp.39015004733401	THE BLACKER THE BERRY... 77 nie?
mdp.39015004733401	The aunt was stoic—“What could you expect of a child V with all that wild Indian blood in him?
mdp.39015004733401	The landlord'll be here before eleven o'clock. ” “ Watcha gon na pawn? ” III 112 THE BLACKER THE BERRY..."My brown suit.
mdp.39015004733401	The tailored blue suit-"What can I do for you? ” THE BLACKER THE BERRY... 89 The voice with the smile wins.
mdp.39015004733401	The voice was persuasive and apologetic, “ Would you care to dance with me?"
mdp.39015004733401	Wake up, ” he began shaking him, “ Wake up, damn you... ya dead? ” Alva slowly emerged from his stupor.
mdp.39015004733401	Was it cold blooded payment for his kind chap- eroning?
mdp.39015004733401	Was n't she throwing it up to him?"
mdp.39015004733401	Well, she would write today, that is, if she did not start to work, and she must get up at eight o'clock — was the alarm set?
mdp.39015004733401	Were they not a superior class?
mdp.39015004733401	Were they not a very high type of Negro, comparable to the per- sons of color group in the West Indies?
mdp.39015004733401	What did she expect?
mdp.39015004733401	What did the color of one's skin have to do with one's mentality or native ability?
mdp.39015004733401	What if she was better than the little black girl who lived around the corner?
mdp.39015004733401	What time is it? ” “ Oh, ” he returned guardedly,"somewhere after three. ”"Where've you been?"
mdp.39015004733401	What time is it? ” “ Oh, ” he returned guardedly,"somewhere after three. ”"Where've you been?"
mdp.39015004733401	What was this woman talking about?
mdp.39015004733401	What?
mdp.39015004733401	Where else could one see so many different types of Negroes?
mdp.39015004733401	Where else would one view such a heterogeneous ensemble of mellow colors, glorified by the night?
mdp.39015004733401	Where have you been?
mdp.39015004733401	Where is your intelligence and pride?
mdp.39015004733401	Where on earth could she have gone to high school?
mdp.39015004733401	Who shall I say called?
mdp.39015004733401	Who?
mdp.39015004733401	Why did n't he look her way?
mdp.39015004733401	Why do n't you find out about that?
mdp.39015004733401	Why should n't they ask her? ” Emma Lou did not know what to make of this.
mdp.39015004733401	Why was she so impatient?
mdp.39015004733401	Why, she wondered, should one's physical properties always insist upon appearing awry after a night of stolen or forbidden pleasure?
mdp.39015004733401	Wonder what she's doin'? ” Emma Lou read all this between the lines of what her mother had written.
mdp.39015004733401	Wonder who they was? ” “ Oh, she probably works for them.
mdp.39015004733401	You got your rent? ”"I got four dollars,"Braxton advanced slowly.
mdp.39015004733401	You know,"she advanced confidentially, “ I've never gone to school with any colored people before. ” “ No?"
mdp.39015004733401	up off of the street?
mdp.39015004733401	“ Alva's gone to work; who is it?"
mdp.39015004733401	“ Are you a new student? ” she in- quired of the astonished Alma, who was n't used to this sort of thing.
mdp.39015004733401	“ But do n't í you understand he's just tryin'to find some one to take care of that brat of his?
mdp.39015004733401	“ But what about your appointment? ”"I shall take it. ”"What! ” She forgot her weariness.
mdp.39015004733401	“ Did n't you like college? ”.
mdp.39015004733401	“ Do you hear me?"
mdp.39015004733401	“ Do you know they have corn liquor in the kit- chen?
mdp.39015004733401	“ Do you think you will like it?"
mdp.39015004733401	“ I must be going. ” “ Do you want the room? ” There was a note of anxiety in her voice.
mdp.39015004733401	“ I wantsa —""What kind of job do you want? ” Could n't people ever finish what they had to say?
mdp.39015004733401	“ I wantsa —""What kind of job do you want? ” Could n't people ever finish what they had to say?
mdp.39015004733401	“ I was lone- some, I guess. ”"Were n't there any other colored boys and girls?
mdp.39015004733401	“ I would like stenographic work. ” “ Experienced?"
mdp.39015004733401	“ Is n't this marvelous? ” Truman's eyes were ablaze with interest and excitement.
mdp.39015004733401	“ Is that so? ” Helen inquired listlessly.
mdp.39015004733401	“ May I have this dance? ” A well modulated deep voice.
mdp.39015004733401	“ Porter or dishwashing, lady. ” “ Are you registered with us? ” “ No'm. ”"Have a seat.
mdp.39015004733401	“ Thank God, she wo n't be in any of our classes, eh Amos? ” Emma Lou was almost abreast of them now.
mdp.39015004733401	“ What do you want to waste your time with that yaller nigger for?
mdp.39015004733401	“ What the hell is hoppin’-john? ” “ Ray, I'm ashamed of you.
mdp.39015004733401	“ What the hell would Arline do, ” he laughed, “ if she did n't have you to change her complexion before every performance?"
mdp.39015004733401	“ What time is it?"
mdp.39015004733401	“ What? ” Arline was genuinely surprised.
mdp.39015004733401	“ Why I came home, where'd ya think I went? ” Braxton laughed again.
mdp.39015004733401	“ Why in the hell does Alva give so many damn women his'phone number? ” Six- thirty- five.
mdp.39015004733401	“ You in Harlem and never been to a cabaret?
mdp.39015004733401	“ You mean to say you're going to teach school and live with that man, too?

wu.89098876212	Forgive me for what, mother? wu.89098876212 'O, Linda, is n't this a bad world? wu.89098876212 113 6 Uncle Fred, how do you manage to get your lessons so well? ” 6 Lord bress you, chile,he replied.
wu.89098876212	6 Well, brother, ” said I, “ what is the matter this time? ” “ O Linda, Ben and his master have had a dread- ful time! ” said he.
wu.89098876212	61 1 “ So you want to be married, do you? ” said he, 66 and to a free nigger."
wu.89098876212	66 What right had you to allow it, when you knew I had sold her? ”.
wu.89098876212	And Linda, poor Linda; what'll become of her?
wu.89098876212	And do you suppose I would turn mother out of her home in her old age?
wu.89098876212	And had he so little feeling for their wretched mother that he would not listen a moment while she pleaded for them?
wu.89098876212	And what did he care for the value of a slave?
wu.89098876212	Are her children with you? ” When told that they were, he said, “ I am very glad to hear that.
wu.89098876212	Are you mad?
wu.89098876212	At last, as uncle Phillip came into the house, I heard some one inquire, “ How is she? ” and he answered, “ She is dead."
wu.89098876212	Before I saw her, I heard her saying, “ Where is Linda Brent?
wu.89098876212	Benny said, “ Grandmother, do you think uncle Will has gone for good?
wu.89098876212	But can that hour of singing and shouting sustain them through the dreary week, toiling without wages, under constant dread of the lash?
wu.89098876212	But did the mothers dare to tell who was the father of their children?
wu.89098876212	But what cared the legislators of the domi- nant race ” for the blood they were crushing out of trampled hearts?
wu.89098876212	But what consequence was that, when she had a big heart overflowing with human kindness?
wu.89098876212	But where could I turn for protection?
wu.89098876212	But why, thought I, did my relatives ever cherish hopes for me?
wu.89098876212	Ca n't you go with me?
wu.89098876212	Did the child feign what she did not feel?
wu.89098876212	Did the old fox suppose I was goose enough to go into such a trap?
wu.89098876212	Did the other slaves dare to allude to it, except in whispers among themselves?
wu.89098876212	Do they respect the northerner for this?
wu.89098876212	Do you know the place, grand- mother?
wu.89098876212	Do you love him as you did formerly? ” She rose to her feet, and said, in piteous tones, 6 My Lord and Master, help me!
wu.89098876212	Do you love him? ” said he, in a hissing tone.
wu.89098876212	Do you sup- pose that all men are alike to her? ” “ Do you love this nigger? ” said he, abruptly.
wu.89098876212	Do you sup- pose that all men are alike to her? ” “ Do you love this nigger? ” said he, abruptly.
wu.89098876212	Do you think any other master would bear what I have borne from you this morning?
wu.89098876212	Does dat satisfy you?
wu.89098876212	Does he want to hurt us? ” I would clasp the dear boy in my arms, trusting that he would be free before he was old enough to solve the problem.
wu.89098876212	For not letting him treat me like a dog?
wu.89098876212	Had my children, then, be- come of so little consequence to him?
wu.89098876212	Had she utterly forsaken me?
wu.89098876212	He asked, for the last time, would I accept his kindness?
wu.89098876212	He had heard them say that he had gone to find me, and he called out, “ Dr. Flint, did you bring my mother home?
wu.89098876212	He was especially charged to rub on the ointment by a fire; but how could a fire be made in my little den?
wu.89098876212	He watched her face narrowly, and said, “ 6 Do n't you know any thing about her running off? ” She assured him that she did not.
wu.89098876212	Her first question was, “ Did you know you were to sleep in the doctor's room? ” 6 Yes, ma'am. ” 66 Who told you?"
wu.89098876212	Her first question was, “ Did you know you were to sleep in the doctor's room? ” 6 Yes, ma'am. ” 66 Who told you?"
wu.89098876212	How could I believe it?
wu.89098876212	How could he get strength without air and exercise?
wu.89098876212	How could he, when he knew he would sell them, one by one, wherever he could command the highest price?
wu.89098876212	How could she realize my feelings?
wu.89098876212	How could they hope that I should escape?
wu.89098876212	How do you do?"
wu.89098876212	How had those years dealt with her slave sister, the little playmate of her childhood?
wu.89098876212	How much more must I suffer, before I should be 6 broke in"to that degree?
wu.89098876212	How often did I kneel down to listen to her words of conso- lation, whispered through a crack?
wu.89098876212	How would you like to be sent to jail for your insolence?"
wu.89098876212	I do n't remember how mother looked — do you, Benny?"
wu.89098876212	I felt almost sure I should never see him again on southern soil; but had he no word of comfort to send to his friends at home?
wu.89098876212	I knew there was some risk in thus be- traying that I was in the vicinity; but what will not a mother do for her children?
wu.89098876212	I replied, “ Do n't you suppose, sir, that a slave can have some preference about marrying?
wu.89098876212	I should like it; would n't you, Ellen? ” 6 Yes, I should like it, ” replied Ellen; “ but how could we find her?
wu.89098876212	I should like it; would n't you, Ellen? ” 6 Yes, I should like it, ” replied Ellen; “ but how could we find her?
wu.89098876212	I was encountering dangers for the sake of freeing them, and must I be the cause of their death?
wu.89098876212	I was startled to hear some one say, “ Did you speak to me? ” I looked up, and saw Mr. Flint standing be- side me.
wu.89098876212	In view of these things, why are ye silent, ye free men and women of the north?
wu.89098876212	It will take'em all, and more too, to wash the dirt off your soul. ” “ Do you know whom you are talking to? ” he es.
wu.89098876212	Now, how could I look them in the face?
wu.89098876212	Or had he given her to his cousin, as a piece of property?
wu.89098876212	She gazed on me in utter astonishment, and exclaimed, “ Linda, can this be you?
wu.89098876212	So he is tired of you?
wu.89098876212	That I would let her pay all those hard- earned dollars for me, and never to see me?
wu.89098876212	The color mounted to my brother's face when he gave it to me; and he said, “ Do n't you hate me, Linda, for bringing you these things?"
wu.89098876212	The virtuous madam do n't like to hear about it, does she?
wu.89098876212	Then, turning to her uncle, she said, pleadingly, “ May I stay?
wu.89098876212	They did n't cut off your head at the plantation, did they? ” My time was up too soon, and my guide was waiting for me.
wu.89098876212	Was I not already in the dust?
wu.89098876212	Was my child dead, or had they de- ceived me, and sold her?
wu.89098876212	Was this all I was to gain by what I had suf- fered for the sake of having my children free?
wu.89098876212	Were my children with their grandmother, or had the speculator carried them off?
wu.89098876212	What a libel upon the heavenly Father, who “ made of one blood all nations of men! ” And then who are Afri- cans?
wu.89098876212	What cared my owners for that?
wu.89098876212	What could I do?
wu.89098876212	What could I do?
wu.89098876212	What do you stand there for, Bill?
wu.89098876212	What security had I with regard to Benjamin?
wu.89098876212	What security had he that they would not be so again?
wu.89098876212	What was there to save me from the usual fate of slave girls?
wu.89098876212	What would they have done under similar circumstances?
wu.89098876212	When I stepped forward to take it from them, one of the soldiers turned and said angrily, “ What d'ye foller us fur?
wu.89098876212	When that was opened, there was a great shout of surprise; and one exclaimed, “ Where'd the damned niggers git all dis sheet an'table clarf?"
wu.89098876212	Who can blame slaves for being cunning?
wu.89098876212	Who can measure the amount of Anglo- Saxon blood coursing in the veins of American slaves?
wu.89098876212	Who is going to sell you, aunt Marthy?
wu.89098876212	Who knows what may happen?".
wu.89098876212	Whom does he belong to? ”.
wu.89098876212	Why allow the ten- drils of the heart to twine around objects which may at any moment be wrenched away by the hand of vio- lence?
wu.89098876212	Why did n't you come home when Dr. Flint went to bring you? ” I answered, “ I could n't come before, dear.
wu.89098876212	Why do n't God kill me? ” I had no words wherewith to comfort her.
wu.89098876212	Why do n't you and uncle Phillip, and all of us, go and live where mother is?
wu.89098876212	Why do n't you go off with the brat?
wu.89098876212	Why do you come here?
wu.89098876212	Why do your tongues falter in maintenance of the right?
wu.89098876212	Why does the slave ever love?
wu.89098876212	Why had my lot been so different from my mother's?
wu.89098876212	Why should he distress her when she could do him no good?
wu.89098876212	Will you answer truly all the questions I ask?"
wu.89098876212	With a sob in her voice, she said, “ I'm glad you've come to see me; but why did n't you ever come before?
wu.89098876212	Wo n't he ever come back again?
wu.89098876212	Would Betty never come, and tell me the truth about it?
wu.89098876212	Would he be bought?
wu.89098876212	half free niggers? ” inquired he.
wu.89098876212	has it come to this?
wu.89098876212	ing from dawn till dark on the plantations?
wu.89098876212	ocrites?
wu.89098876212	of hounds trained to tear human flesh?
wu.89098876212	of men screwed into cotton gins to die?
wu.89098876212	of moth- ers shrieking for their children, torn from their arms by slave traders?
wu.89098876212	of pools of blood around the whipping post?
wu.89098876212	of young girls dragged down into moral filth?
wu.89098876212	or is it your ghost? ” When we were locked in each other's arms, my overwrought feelings could no longer be restrained.
wu.89098876212	or was her mother jealous of the mite of love she bestowed on me?
wu.89098876212	sible you risk yourself in this house?
wu.89098876212	to the poor captive in her dungeon?
wu.89098876212	what are you doing here?"
wu.89098876212	what would you do without a mother?
wu.89098876212	what's you crying'bout?
wu.89098876212	you ai n't dead, are you?
wu.89098876212	you herself. ” This letter perplexed and troubled me, Had my child's father merely placed her there till she was old enough to support herself?
wu.89098876212	“ Ah, Ellen, is that you? ” he said, in his most gracious manner.
wu.89098876212	“ Ca n't something be done to stop it? ” on? ” said"importer- told him 130 Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl.

wu.89098876212	“ Can you read them? ” he asked.
wu.89098876212	“ Did I not take you into the house, and make you the companion of my own children? ” he would say.
wu.89098876212	“ Do you suppose I want you to kick up a row in Boston?
wu.89098876212	“ Do you suppose, Phil, when I have got so far out of their clutches, I will give them one red cent?
wu.89098876212	“ Have I ever treated you like a negro?
wu.89098876212	“ Have you thought how important your decision is to your children? ” said he.
wu.89098876212	“ How came this girl here? ” he exclaimed.
wu.89098876212	“ Linda,"said he, speaking as I had not heard him speak that evening, “ how could you say that?
wu.89098876212	“ Linda,"she whis pered, “ where are you? ” “ I am here by the window,"I replied.
wu.89098876212	“ Mother, do n't you believe it? ” he said, laying his hand softly upon her shoulder.
wu.89098876212	“ Must you go? ” said she.
wu.89098876212	“ So you are left in disgust, are you? ” said he.
wu.89098876212	“ Then you accept my offer? ” “ No, sir."
wu.89098876212	“ What calls you up so early? ” said he.
wu.89098876212	“ What more do you wait for?"
wu.89098876212	“ What right have you, who are my negro, to talk to me about what you would like, and what you would n't like?
wu.89098876212	“ Who called me? ” said he, in a low tone.
wu.89098876212	“ Who knows the ways of God? ” said she.
wu.89098876212	“ Who writes to you?
wu.89098876212	“ Why do n't you speak?"
wu.89098876212	“ Will you say again that you never saw that man? ” I answered,"I do say so. ” He clinched my arm with a volley of oaths.
wu.89098876212	“ Yes,"he said, “ I try to be good; but what's the use?
wu.89098876212	“ You suffer, do you? ” she ex- claimed.
wu.89098876212	• Do you tell me I lie? ” exclaimed he, dragging me from my chair.

mdp.39015066034508	Had he meant the approval of the women, or was it one woman that he cared for?

mdp.39015066034508	See that little girl over there?
mdp.39015066034508	See that woman over there by the wall?
mdp.39015066034508	She did not want to be suspicious, but what was the cause of that tell- tale flush?
mdp.39015066034508	She was scared, d'you under- stand?

mdp.39015066034508	The little one was scared, see?
mdp.39015066034508	Then he asked weakly,"Well, what am I goin'to do?"
mdp.39015066034508	Want to meet her?"
mdp.39015066034508	Was it true?
mdp.39015066034508	Was she mocking him?
mdp.39015066034508	Was she restraining her scorn of him only to make his humiliation the greater after a while?
mdp.39015066034508	We git the best shows here, we git the best concerts — say, now, what's the use o'my callin'it all out?
mdp.39015066034508	Well, do you know, I came home the other night and found that black rascal gone?

mdp.39015066034508	Whaih?"
mdp.39015066034508	What are the few paltry dollars to me or to you?"
mdp.39015066034508	What are you looking so cut up about?"
mdp.39015066034508	What is it?
mdp.39015066034508	What more could they ask?
mdp.39015066034508	What should he do?
mdp.39015066034508	What should she do if he should so speak to her?
mdp.39015066034508	What you doin'here?"
mdp.39015066034508	What you mean?
mdp.39015066034508	What'ud yo'pa think?"
mdp.39015066034508	Where now was the philosophy of Sadness?
mdp.39015066034508	Where'll we go?"
mdp.39015066034508	Who else?"
mdp.39015066034508	Why did n't you put it in the bank as you got it?"
mdp.39015066034508	Why do n't you marry him, ma?
mdp.39015066034508	Why had he not tried to placate her by disavowing sympathy with his mother?
mdp.39015066034508	Why in the devil should this fellow be so sadly gay when he was weighted down with sorrow and shame and disgust?
mdp.39015066034508	Why not the second?
mdp.39015066034508	Why would not Leslie come?
mdp.39015066034508	Why, Colonel, what are you thinking of?
mdp.39015066034508	Why, Joe — they: — they do n't think hard of us, do they?"
mdp.39015066034508	Will you have him called here and question him, or will you let me question him at once?"
mdp.39015066034508	Would he really take him out and let him meet stage people?
mdp.39015066034508	Would she yet tell, and if she did, what would happen?
mdp.39015066034508	You ai n't been practisin'lately, has you?"
mdp.39015066034508	You know that white pup of mine, Mr. Talbot, that I bought from Hiram Gaskins?
mdp.39015066034508	You must have done a pretty big job to have got so much money all in a lump?"
mdp.39015066034508	well, now, where did you get this money?"

uc1.b3688127	“ Jim, will you tell me whut you's doin'snoopin''roun ’ Gordon's house this time'er night? ” he asked sternly.

uc1.b3688127	“ What you want to say, Jessie? ” Ethel asked, as she slipped free from his arms.
uc1.b3688127	“ What're you doin'here, Ethel? ” William asked realizing that she was drunk, and would be hard to handle in that condition.
uc1.b3688127	“ What's it? ” “ I want someone else beside you to deal the cards, ” he answered slowly.
uc1.b3688127	“ When did you get this? ” William asked, looking hard at the crumbled piece of paper.
uc1.b3688127	“ When is you seen them act fair when there's one uh us on trial? ” William asked quietly.
uc1.b3688127	“ When you goin'back to Macon? ” Martha asked, anxious to change the subject.

emu.010002426670	Placing her hands upon the body, she whispered:''Mamma, mamma, is dis you?"
emu.010002426670	Pray, what do you think?"
emu.010002426670	Purcey said,"Why, Mr. McCullar, what brings you here this time of day?"
emu.010002426670	Raising her eyes and looking full at her mistress, she said slowly:"Miss Jinnie, do n't I always'bey you?
emu.010002426670	See dat road dat leads up yonder?
emu.010002426670	See liar, my friend, ca n't we git round this town?"
emu.010002426670	She said:"My husband, ai n't you glad to see me?"
emu.010002426670	She says,'Ilabaseat?'
emu.010002426670	She says,'Kest yer hat?'
emu.010002426670	Should she en¬ ter?
emu.010002426670	Should we wonder that William questioned the right of an¬ other man to separate him from the wife and child of his bosom?
emu.010002426670	So he said, in his thick speech:"Look har, Joe, if you gwine to trabel any fudder, why do n't you come on?
emu.010002426670	So he said,"Which one will you sell?"
emu.010002426670	So you and your mistress are travelin', and she'lows you to take that brat along?
emu.010002426670	Sound?
emu.010002426670	Starting toward the door, he said to the judge:"Been to breakfast?
emu.010002426670	The lady bowed somewhat stiffly, as she inquired, in rather a surprised air:"Why, Jere, what brings you here?'"
emu.010002426670	The landlord of the place said to him:"Where are you bound for, young man?"
emu.010002426670	The man came forward, and when he looked at the ludicrous situation, he laughed loudly and said;'"What's de matter, Uncle?''
emu.010002426670	The man controlled his feelings as best he could, and, in a trembling voice, said:"Break your heart?
emu.010002426670	The man on horse back then said:"Do n't you men want to make a little money?
emu.010002426670	The party hav¬ ing landed, Joe said:"Now, boys, what road shall we take?"
emu.010002426670	The rider eyed them closely, as he said:"Ai n't you rather early for the springs?"
emu.010002426670	Then why should he have this pe¬ culiar feeling?
emu.010002426670	Then you will not accept him as a gift, nor permit him to remain here on the place unless I consent to remain?
emu.010002426670	This woman, possessed of all the attractive¬ ness which nature could bestow, was what?
emu.010002426670	Under forty?
emu.010002426670	Was he not fully aware that this woman had given birth to a child of which his father was also the father?
emu.010002426670	Was he the subject of their conversation?
emu.010002426670	Was it because he had nursed at her breast?
emu.010002426670	Was it born of the same material, possessing the same tendency?
emu.010002426670	Was it possible for this piece of goods and chattel to have within his breast affection?
emu.010002426670	Was it, or could it be, formed into a love pure and true, a love such as poets have sung of, and mankind is subject to?
emu.010002426670	Was the note he had to deliver a pass that he could use upon his return, as he realized that it would be well into the night before he could return?
emu.010002426670	Well, if I do this, why do n't you be obedient to your master, and be contented with your lot?"
emu.010002426670	Well- er, that's the nigger?"
emu.010002426670	Whar you going?"
emu.010002426670	What I care if you whip me?
emu.010002426670	What did he know of the untold suffering which awaited every child of which he was the father?
emu.010002426670	What did he know of the wrong he was doing his race?
emu.010002426670	What do you mean?"
emu.010002426670	What does it matter, Sis( this appellation was used by the judge when falling on familiar terms with his sister), whence he came?
emu.010002426670	What does that mean, Elo?"
emu.010002426670	What has happened?
emu.010002426670	What has happened?"

emu.010002426670	What he do dat for?"
emu.010002426670	What in the devil will you do with the brat?"
emu.010002426670	What is it?"
emu.010002426670	What is your price for him?"
emu.010002426670	What man?"
emu.010002426670	What were the temptations that entered the woman's mind, when the man who owned her body and had dishonored her slept in apparent calm repose?
emu.010002426670	What's the matter?"
emu.010002426670	What's your name?"
emu.010002426670	While he was engaged at eating, the woman said: u You'se a runaway, ai n't you?"
emu.010002426670	Who could this strange couple be?
emu.010002426670	Who is that?"
emu.010002426670	Why had he gone away — why did he want him to await his return?
emu.010002426670	Why must you go?
emu.010002426670	Why should he be brought up in ignorance and servitude?
emu.010002426670	Why should he be reared and taught to acknowledge another man as his master?
emu.010002426670	Why should her child be a child of bondage?
emu.010002426670	Why should she go on so about him, dear?"
emu.010002426670	Why, then, should a man refuse to accept as a bonus a human being that was actually so many dollars and cents?
emu.010002426670	Why?"
emu.010002426670	Will he be back soon, do you think?"
emu.010002426670	Will you have me?"
emu.010002426670	William passed his arm gently around her as he said:"Chile, ai n't nobody told j ou'i''"Told me what?
emu.010002426670	Would you break my heart with this terrible silence?
emu.010002426670	Would you gib mesomethin'to eat, and tell me whar to find the turnpike?"

emu.010002426670	do n't I give you a holiday every Christmas?
emu.010002426670	lie looked up at the woman, and inquired: Whar's your husband?"
emu.010002426670	or, is there no depth or breadth to the feeling of the human heart?
emu.010002426670	said William,"glad?

uc1.b2838559	So will you promise? ” “ Yes, yes, querido mío, Juanita whispered, limply falling back into his arms, her tears washing his shirt front.
uc1.b2838559	So you were in the service; Army? ” And the men went on to talk about their war experiences.
uc1.b2838559	Sounds good, does n't it?
uc1.b2838559	Such things as, ‘ What's the matter with you Americans treating your colored citi- zens less than human?'
uc1.b2838559	Technically, I am still married to her. ” “ Are you worried that she might want to cut in on your dough? ” Grant asked flippantly.
uc1.b2838559	That guy is a local pain in the neck, a ne'er- do- well wildcatter, who has stung more newcomers than you could count. ” “ Yeah?
uc1.b2838559	That makes it about September 20, right? ” “ Just about.
uc1.b2838559	The victim's true identity might have been established, and in that case who knows what kind of charges they may have against me?
uc1.b2838559	Then he sobered, frowning at himself, and said aloud, “ Okay, so I'm not bad looking, so what?
uc1.b2838559	Then, when the pipe is turned, the bit rotates too, and these rollers grind out the rock. ” “ What happens when the bit gets dull?
uc1.b2838559	This control has everything... ” He broke off as he looked up, saying, “ Oh, excuse me, will you?
uc1.b2838559	This is Marilyn, our youngest, six years old. ” “ And who are the others?
uc1.b2838559	This venture is a dream come true. ” “ This is the first time you're drilling a well of your own? ” “ Right.
uc1.b2838559	Tosco will stick with you! ” “ Coming out to the well after work?
uc1.b2838559	Were you working in Texas before? ” Juanita inquired.
uc1.b2838559	What can you do...? ” “ That often happens.
uc1.b2838559	What did you do to her? ” Mike demanded in mixed anger and confusion.
uc1.b2838559	What do you say? ” “ The helicopter will be a must; that's for sure.
uc1.b2838559	What do you think she would really like? ” “ There's a lamé stole at the Petite Shop.
uc1.b2838559	What do you think we have a plane for, anyway?
uc1.b2838559	What do you think? ” “ You write him as often as you can Tell him all about your sightseeing, but keep it impersonal.
uc1.b2838559	What would she want to do that for 2 When did you find out about it?
uc1.b2838559	What would you say to that? ” “ Wonderful!
uc1.b2838559	What's this one? ” he asked, pointing to one of the ribbons.
uc1.b2838559	What...? ” “ The men could n't have known, of course.
uc1.b2838559	When do you want to go? ” “ The sooner the better. ” “ All right, then.
uc1.b2838559	Who...?
uc1.b2838559	Why do n't you men come along with me?
uc1.b2838559	Why? ” “ Just thinking, ” said Ocee.
uc1.b2838559	Wo n't you join us for a little while? ” Brenda greeted him a few days after they were all settled in the new home.
uc1.b2838559	Would you be interested in learning to fly the helicopter and the plane, and working directly with me? ” “ Great!
uc1.b2838559	Would you believe it, Jua- nita, I can not remember ever having discussed the major problem of religion with anyone before for more than one minute?
uc1.b2838559	You ca n't beat that, can you?
uc1.b2838559	You did n't really stop breathing, did you? ” It took him quite some time to reassure her that he was still breathing.
uc1.b2838559	You like cows? ” “ I love cows l ” Juanita digested this bit of information, looking at Ocee at first with disbelief and bewilderment.
uc1.b2838559	You there, too? ” “ Yes, in coming from the Philippines.
uc1.b2838559	You were sort of the ramrod of the company, were n't you? ” “ Yes, I suppose so.
uc1.b2838559	You're a naturall ’ Or do n't you remember when Daddy told you that? ” she teased.
uc1.b2838559	Your folks coming to meet you?
uc1.b2838559	Your wife's family? ” “ Yes.
uc1.b2838559	make it six weeks; that would give me more time. ” “ What do you need more time to do? ” Helen kissed him.
uc1.b2838559	“ And what was the army officer's name? ” “ Colonel Barker. ” “ There, that should do it!
uc1.b2838559	“ And which is the “ High Road'? ” Ocee laughingly asked.
uc1.b2838559	“ And who taught you that? ” she asked, amazed.
uc1.b2838559	“ Boll weevil, why that's an insect that destroys cotton, is n't it? ” “ Not these! ” Grant laughed heartily.
uc1.b2838559	“ But what is this ‘ junior partner ’? ” Juanita asked when the first wave of excitement subsided.
uc1.b2838559	“ Ca n't you tell?
uc1.b2838559	“ Chantilly, was n't it? ” “ Yes. ” Grant stood at the French door looking out over the garden.
uc1.b2838559	“ Could n't we include something about his being president of the Chamber of Commerce, though? ” Water Politics 105 “ Sure!
uc1.b2838559	“ Did you get the license number of his truck? ” asked Ocee of the man.
uc1.b2838559	“ Did your ad bring in any employment applicants? ” Grant asked one evening as Ocee came home late from the office again.
uc1.b2838559	“ Does this mean those tests you were having run this morning did n't turn out as you had hoped? ” “ That's about the size of it.
uc1.b2838559	“ Everybody agreed? ” And, looking at the nodding heads, he an- nounced, “ All right.
uc1.b2838559	“ Home on leave? ” “ Better than that.
uc1.b2838559	“ How are the law classes coming along? ” Grant asked six weeks later.
uc1.b2838559	“ How can you say such a thing?
uc1.b2838559	“ How much have you got saved up now? ” Ocee asked.
uc1.b2838559	“ How was your trip?
uc1.b2838559	“ I ca n't think of anything you could have Sophisticates Abroad 147 whose husband is a United States senator?
uc1.b2838559	“ I was overseas myself for a long time, remember?
uc1.b2838559	“ Is it real? ” He touched the playful dimple in her right cheek while standing on the bottom rung of the ladder.
uc1.b2838559	“ It ’s really an oasis, is n't it?
uc1.b2838559	“ Mike, is it really you, son?
uc1.b2838559	“ Now what to do? ” he asked himself.
uc1.b2838559	“ Say, have you read this about the catastrophe down in Texas City? ” “ Why, yes, I was just reading about it.
uc1.b2838559	“ Say, ” Ocee asked, “ is n't that where those famous Texas Ag- gies come from? ” “ Well, not exactly. ” The lieutenant smiled.
uc1.b2838559	“ So what are you going to call the back road?
uc1.b2838559	“ They must have an awful lot of people working in there, do n't they? ” Ocee opened the conver- sation.
uc1.b2838559	“ Well, you really inspired this name, too, dear, when you facetiously told Mr. Stokes that we would dig a lake for the cattle, remember?
uc1.b2838559	“ What about a month from today?
uc1.b2838559	“ What can you do? ” one asked as an opener.
uc1.b2838559	“ What do you mean by a pile of money, anyway?
uc1.b2838559	“ What was his trouble? ” her sister inquired, curiously.
uc1.b2838559	“ What would you think of hiding some mistletoe in the chandeliers, Helen? ” Ocee asked.
uc1.b2838559	“ What's wrong with the way he dresses?
uc1.b2838559	“ What? ” “ Come down to see us every weekend!
uc1.b2838559	“ When do we get married? ” he asked, drawing her near.
uc1.b2838559	“ Who was the victim? ” Ocee asked cautiously.
uc1.b2838559	“ Why did you do it? ” the chief wanted to know.
uc1.b2838559	“ Why have n't you married? ” Ocee inquired.
uc1.b2838559	“ Would you?
uc1.b2838559	“ You mean you will vote for me? ” “ No.
uc1.b2838559	“ You, Governor?

mdp.39015071237948	351 “ Seth, ” he whispered, “ are you near?
mdp.39015071237948	6 What brought you out such a night as this?"
mdp.39015071237948	? ” “ Only it is an exception, ” rejoined Mr Durham laugh- ing.
mdp.39015071237948	After Mrs. Burwell had adjusted her spectacles and had examined them for a while, Imogene asked: “ Do n't you think they are nice?
mdp.39015071237948	After she had gone Mr. Stone laid the paper aside, took off his spectacles, looked at his wife and said, “ well?
mdp.39015071237948	Am I so weak that I must give way to this heart trouble and allow its gloom to sway my better judgment?
mdp.39015071237948	And the excuse is so flimsy. ”. “ What is it?"
mdp.39015071237948	Any of them brought their yachts out? ” “ No, but several are overhauling them.
mdp.39015071237948	Are we certain that these impulses move within us to bring us to such a union?"
mdp.39015071237948	Are you doing for others what He has done for you?
mdp.39015071237948	Are you following after Christ as He has pointed out the way in His Holy Book?
mdp.39015071237948	Are you ill?"
mdp.39015071237948	Are you oppressed with the extraordinary heat, or preoccupied with the services? ” “ Neither, I was thinking how recreant I had been.
mdp.39015071237948	Are you out- casts?
mdp.39015071237948	Are you sinful?
mdp.39015071237948	As he struck, the man exclaimed: “ You'll hit a white man, will you?"
mdp.39015071237948	At last he said, “ May I now ask you for the reply to my proposal?
mdp.39015071237948	Before I troth the homage of a life why should I not know more of him?
mdp.39015071237948	But candidly, can a race improve rapidly under such conditions? ” 179 “ Not as rapidly as it might otherwise.
mdp.39015071237948	But come, let us go, it grows late. ” “ You think you have guessed it exactly now, do n't you?
mdp.39015071237948	But we have taken up the whole afternoon in talk, what shall we take up next?"
mdp.39015071237948	But what chance have unarmed men against the armed?
mdp.39015071237948	But why should it be so?
mdp.39015071237948	But you do not know much about the condition of things in the South, do you? ”.
mdp.39015071237948	Can we not justly claim, in view of our environments, that the people of the Republic are ungrateful?
mdp.39015071237948	Can you blame him if in the time you have impossed upon him he seeks relief, and finds it and love, in the person of another, and never comes back?
mdp.39015071237948	Did you ever see a person whose face expressed such a lack of ambition, and who looked more lazy and shiftless?
mdp.39015071237948	Did you know that Seth has been hurt?
mdp.39015071237948	Do n't you think you were a little harsh with her? ” “ Not when I consider that what she said, she said in order to wound my feelings."
mdp.39015071237948	Do you know that I think you're a very clever fellow, and I have often thought that it was too bad that you are colored?
mdp.39015071237948	Do you know that there are a number of octoroons passing for white all over this country?
mdp.39015071237948	Do you see that fair girl?
mdp.39015071237948	Do you thirst for righteousness?
mdp.39015071237948	Do you treat the lowly and extend the helping hand to the weak as you yourself would like to be treated were you in their station?
mdp.39015071237948	Else why these high and glorious aspirations which leap like angles from our hearts forever wandering and unsatisfied?
mdp.39015071237948	Finally he managed to ask: “ Own an interest in the business?"
mdp.39015071237948	Has not my every act proved it?
mdp.39015071237948	Have you heard the latest sensation? ” “ Probably not the particular one you have reference to."
mdp.39015071237948	Have you nothing to offer to God?
mdp.39015071237948	He finds in his heart to distrust the infinite God, why not Í him?
mdp.39015071237948	He said again,"Why do you say that, father? ”.

mdp.39015071237948	How many giant minds have become dwarfed in intellect through the wealth of the world and the lavish praise of the flatterer heaped upon them?
mdp.39015071237948	How many hold places of honor and trust?
mdp.39015071237948	How many noble souls and great charac- ters have sunk into insignificance?

mdp.39015071237948	How?
mdp.39015071237948	I did n't know it was a secret. ” “ You do n't suppose she cares for me, do you? ” He had lain particular stress on the “ me."
mdp.39015071237948	I need thy presence every passing hour, What but thy grace can foil the tempter's power?
mdp.39015071237948	I owe you considerable already. ” “ Is my color all that causes you to think less of me?"

mdp.39015071237948	Is he good looking?"
mdp.39015071237948	Is it because the day brings with it the full realization of our faults and troubles?
mdp.39015071237948	Is it because they are unworthy, incapable or ignorant?
mdp.39015071237948	Is it not meet that we be schooled in the virtue of self- sacrifice to obtain that which we long for?

mdp.39015071237948	Is it not the result of like feelings innate and acquired?
mdp.39015071237948	Is it strange that he was thus moved?
mdp.39015071237948	Is n't it so doctor?"
mdp.39015071237948	Is n't it too bad that all the people I am most interested in seem to have the dumps, are sick or look bad at the same time?
mdp.39015071237948	Is n't that a difference? ” Stanley thought for a moment before he said, “ I guess you are right about that, and it is n't right either.
mdp.39015071237948	Is not a life of happiness worth a year of waiting, ayo more?
mdp.39015071237948	Is not life, after all, a game of chance?
mdp.39015071237948	Is not such honor worthy to aspire to?
mdp.39015071237948	Is she pretty? ” “ I think so, others might not, ” answered Saunders modestly.
mdp.39015071237948	It might even win a wife, but does wealth always win love?
mdp.39015071237948	Marjorie arose and took a seat beside her as she asked, “ do you think you could always love me?"
mdp.39015071237948	May I become one of your pupils?
mdp.39015071237948	Mrs. Burwell thinks he is dangerously ill."- “ But the doctor, what does he say?"
mdp.39015071237948	Oh, will you come?
mdp.39015071237948	Ought we not be sure that it would prove a blessing, and that by nature and purpose we are adapted to each other?
mdp.39015071237948	Ought we, or our surroundings, be responsible if our game be lost, and as a result, instead of pursuing honorable lives, we become infamous?
mdp.39015071237948	Rather a good record is it not for a race that has hardly had twenty- five years of freedom? ”.
mdp.39015071237948	Saunders thought, “ If I had been white would I have been detailed to act as nurse?
mdp.39015071237948	Somewhat of a paradox is n't it?"
mdp.39015071237948	Stanley and Saunders, looking into each other's eyes, read the same thoughts that agitated each, and each was asking himself, is it destiny?
mdp.39015071237948	Stanley arose to go; as he reached the door Mr. Arnold called after him: “ Do you expect to remain long in the South?"
mdp.39015071237948	Stanley gone so soon? ” She enquired, then noticing Marjorie's appearance, her motherly instincts were aroused, “ Why my dear, what is the matter?

mdp.39015071237948	Was he not then standing on the “ Bridge of Sighs, ” with his hopes buried beneath?
mdp.39015071237948	Was he so much different from the rest of the world in this?
mdp.39015071237948	Was it the conscious- ness of what he had lost or a bold confession of his weak- ness?
mdp.39015071237948	What awful return has been his for his generosity?
mdp.39015071237948	What did he mean by being half made up in character?

mdp.39015071237948	What say you, my lady? ” “ He has some, it is true,"replied Marjorie after a pause.
mdp.39015071237948	What would life without her be to me?
mdp.39015071237948	When Stanley smiled his father bent down and asked eagerly, “ Seth, my boy, do you feel better?

mdp.39015071237948	Who, like thyself, my guide and stay can be?
mdp.39015071237948	Why is it that the rainbows of the clouds come over us with a beauty that is not of earth then pass off and leave us to muse on their loveliness?
mdp.39015071237948	Why should it?
mdp.39015071237948	Why will not the possession of the thoughts that now thrill me to triumph over self remain with me?
mdp.39015071237948	Why?

mdp.39015071237948	You are shut out from society and from business; what will be next? ”"I ca n't say, but I have not lost hope.

mdp.39015063942067	Would not this fight be as much a part of his disguise as the rough speech he had tried to assume?

mdp.39015063942067	You're just the same as you were when you went away, are n't you?
mdp.39015063942067	You're not thinking of dying, are you?"
mdp.39015063942067	i8o RIVER GEORGE"How did he look?
mdp.39015012856574	... and who'll protect Mamie and me? mdp.39015012856574 Are you going to help — or are n't you? ” he de- manded.
mdp.39015012856574	Do n't you know me, Kenneth? mdp.39015012856574 Do n't you remember me, Dr. Bennett?
mdp.39015012856574	Doc, you wo n't let'em get me again, will you?
mdp.39015012856574	Have n't you anything to say? ” Kenneth anxiously inquired, taking one of Jane's hands in his. mdp.39015012856574 I suppose I agree with you in theory, Jane, but what are the practical ways of doing the things you say I ought to do?
mdp.39015012856574	Ken, have you ever thought out what a decent white man goes through with in a town like Central City? mdp.39015012856574 Well, what can we do about it?
mdp.39015012856574	... What's dat?
mdp.39015012856574	Ai n't you got sense enough t know you had n't any business comin'in here t tell me'bout Mr. Parker?
mdp.39015012856574	And far's I can see, things're getting worse every day. ” “ Could n't you organize those white people who think like you do? ” asked Kenneth.
mdp.39015012856574	And he was n't any more guilty of touching that white girl than you or me. ” “ What did you do about it? ” asked Bob.
mdp.39015012856574	And most of all to see the Gov'nor! ”"See the Governor for what? ” Kenneth asked.
mdp.39015012856574	And what would be gained?
mdp.39015012856574	And what'chu think that old fool Judge Stev’nson said t me to- day?
mdp.39015012856574	And you come in here to re- po't it?"
mdp.39015012856574	Anthony gazed intently at Kenneth as he asked gravely:"Doctor, have you thought of the possibility of- er-trouble if your motives are not understood?
mdp.39015012856574	Anybody around? ” On being assured that he was alone, Ewing en- tered, brushing by Kenneth to get out of the glare of the light.
mdp.39015012856574	Are n't they ever going to see how they're hurting themselves by trying to keep the Negro down? ” “ That's just it, ” replied the judge.
mdp.39015012856574	Are you getting it?"
mdp.39015012856574	Atlanta?
mdp.39015012856574	But had n't she written him almost every week since she left?
mdp.39015012856574	But lynching does keep some of these young nigger bucks in check. ” “ Does it?
mdp.39015012856574	But what about Dr. Bennett? ” “ Dat's a'right.
mdp.39015012856574	But what about the effect on the white people whose actions you want to check?
mdp.39015012856574	But what harm could come from attending the meeting?
mdp.39015012856574	Can I count on your being there?
mdp.39015012856574	Do n't you know his brother's sheriff?
mdp.39015012856574	Do n't you think mamma and I want to talk with you occasionally? ” Mamie seated herself on the arm of Kenneth's chair.
mdp.39015012856574	Doan let'em whip me no mo?
mdp.39015012856574	Emma Brad- ley down on Ashley Street- don't you, Kenneth? ” Without waiting for a reply, Mrs. Harper went on: “ Well, she's mighty sick.
mdp.39015012856574	For was n't he a latter- day disciple bringing a new solution and a new hope to his people?
mdp.39015012856574	God, there is n't anything-anything I can do?
mdp.39015012856574	Good Lord, had he per- formed the operation only yesterday morning?
mdp.39015012856574	Had n't she been to Atlantic City and New York and Washington with her mother?
mdp.39015012856574	Had n't the Ku Klux Klan outdone, in absurdity of name and ceremony and dress, anything that Negroes had ever even thought of?
mdp.39015012856574	Has your son come home from Atlanta yet? ” The voice went chattering on while Kenneth tried to moisten his parched throat sufficiently to speak.
mdp.39015012856574	Have you thought what he has to put up with all over the South?
mdp.39015012856574	He inquired regarding her trip — was it pleasant?
mdp.39015012856574	He knew the only chance was through the Guy'nor. ” “ But why should I need protection now?"
mdp.39015012856574	He looked at Mr. Wilson and asked:"What's the purpose of this meeting to- night?
mdp.39015012856574	He looked over the assemblage for a full minute and then demanded in a ringing voice: “ What do you choose to be slaves or men? ” He sat down.
mdp.39015012856574	He was an- swered by a rousing “ No! ” “ What are you going to do about it? ” he demanded.
mdp.39015012856574	He's where?
mdp.39015012856574	How can I help, Reverend Wilson? ” “ It's like this.
mdp.39015012856574	How many of them could say what they really want to?
mdp.39015012856574	How much are Negroes think- ing about voting? ”"They think about it all the time, ” replied Ken- neth.
mdp.39015012856574	How would Harper's Sanitarium sound?
mdp.39015012856574	How're you going to find out to- night who the others were?
mdp.39015012856574	How're you, Ken?
mdp.39015012856574	How's it all going to end?
mdp.39015012856574	I do n't see how you can shut your eyes to how coloured people are being treated here. ” “ What's wrong?
mdp.39015012856574	I would n't do anything to hurt you for the world. ” “ But what is it, Jane? ” begged Kenneth.
mdp.39015012856574	Is n't he the innocent one, though?
mdp.39015012856574	It all goes back to the same root- self- interest- how much is it go- ing to cost me?
mdp.39015012856574	Le's see it's been nigh on to eight years since you went No'th, ai n't it?
mdp.39015012856574	Let's be friends, Ken, and enjoy these few days and forget all we've said to- night, wo n't you, please? ” she ended pleadingly.
mdp.39015012856574	Listen at'i m howl?
mdp.39015012856574	Maybe she's tired from the ride in that dirty and noisy car?
mdp.39015012856574	Me?
mdp.39015012856574	Mr. Ewing, why do n't you and the other decent white people here come out against lynching? ” “ Who?
mdp.39015012856574	Mr. Ewing, why do n't you and the other decent white people here come out against lynching? ” “ Who?
mdp.39015012856574	Oh, Ken, ca n't you see what a big thing you can do?
mdp.39015012856574	Oh, well, what did it matter?
mdp.39015012856574	Oh,[ 55] THE FIRE IN THE FLINT Lawdy, why is I suff'rin'this way?
mdp.39015012856574	Oh- oh- oh- ain't dey nothin'to he'p us po'cullud fo’ks — ain't dey nobody- ain't dey nobody? ” It was just as Kenneth had suspected.
mdp.39015012856574	Or must I call you Dr. Harper now? ” “ No, my name is still Kenneth — ” he answered.
mdp.39015012856574	Or the Hospital of South Georgia?
mdp.39015012856574	Or would he go down in some squall which arose from he knew not where or when?
mdp.39015012856574	Or would the Central City Infirmary be better?
mdp.39015012856574	Perhaps you can tell me where the money to start this co- operative scheme is coming from?"
mdp.39015012856574	Puzzled at her tone, Kenneth abruptly answered: “ Why should n't I have come back? ” She laughed nervously “ Nothing- oh, nothing.
mdp.39015012856574	Rein- carnation?
mdp.39015012856574	Remember her? ” Kenneth smiled.
mdp.39015012856574	S eine “ Why do n't men like yourself speak out against the things you know are wrong, Judge? ”.
mdp.39015012856574	Seems t me it's mighty late for them to be holdin'revival services and indo'camp- meetin ’s? ” he queried in as casual a tone as he could manage.
mdp.39015012856574	She was a homely little brat, was n't she? ” It was now Mamie's turn to smile.
mdp.39015012856574	She would have[ 270] THE FIRE IN THE FLINT was life worth anyway?
mdp.39015012856574	Smoke?
mdp.39015012856574	Something[ 72] THE FIRE IN THE FLINT must be done, but what is it?
mdp.39015012856574	Still thinking about going back to Atlanta? ” “ I do n't know what I want to do, ” was Bob's trou- bled rejoinder.
mdp.39015012856574	Suppose one of them said the same things to Mrs. Ewing, how would you feel then? ” Ewing flushed.
mdp.39015012856574	Suppose the judge was n't as friendly towards coloured people as he had sup- posed?
mdp.39015012856574	Tell us how you're getting along. ”"You have heard of it? ” asked Kenneth in sur- prise.
mdp.39015012856574	That seems so far- fetched. ”"Believe it?
mdp.39015012856574	That's always running around after men?
mdp.39015012856574	Therefore, he reasoned, why bother with it any more than one was forced to by sheer necessity?
mdp.39015012856574	To these hum- ble folk their religion was the most important thing in their lives, and, after all, what matters it what a man does?
mdp.39015012856574	Was this religious fervour the best thing for his people?
mdp.39015012856574	Were n't coloured women considered human — wasn't their virtue as dear to them as to white women?
mdp.39015012856574	What about it?
mdp.39015012856574	What can I do?
mdp.39015012856574	What have my looks to do with her? ” Kenneth retorted with some heat, in a vain attempt to spar for time.
mdp.39015012856574	What if Nancy was n't all that she should have been?—whose was the greater fault- hers or George Parker's?
mdp.39015012856574	What if that Jim Archer did have a little fun with the nigger's sister?
mdp.39015012856574	What if they did lose even there?
mdp.39015012856574	What if they did lose in the local court?
mdp.39015012856574	What is it, Doc?
mdp.39015012856574	What is it?"
mdp.39015012856574	What th ’ hell's he got to do with it? ”"Said it was his duty.
mdp.39015012856574	What was it?
mdp.39015012856574	What was she going to say?
mdp.39015012856574	What was she to do?
mdp.39015012856574	What was that phrase the Ku Kluxers used so much — “ preservation of the sanctity of the home, protec- tion of the purity of womanhood ”?
mdp.39015012856574	What was the elusive solution to this prob- lem of race in America?
mdp.39015012856574	What was the exact way in which his father had put his philos- ophy of life in the South during that last talk they had had together?
mdp.39015012856574	What was?
mdp.39015012856574	What ’re you men goin'to do? ” he challenged in a voice that shrilled in pre- tended rage and terror.
mdp.39015012856574	What're you going to do then? ” he asked.
mdp.39015012856574	What's he doing there?
mdp.39015012856574	What's th ’ matter?
mdp.39015012856574	What's the trouble? ” Bob and Kenneth turned at the voice from the door.
mdp.39015012856574	What's the use, he thought, of telling what he had planned to the Ewings?
mdp.39015012856574	What?
mdp.39015012856574	What?
mdp.39015012856574	Who ’re you going to get?
mdp.39015012856574	Why could n't the white people of the South see where their course was lead- ing them?
mdp.39015012856574	Why could n't they see even then that they are doing more harm to themselves than they could ever do to the Negro?
mdp.39015012856574	Why did he leave his daughter when he knew she might die any minute?
mdp.39015012856574	Why did n't I do it?
mdp.39015012856574	Why did n't I do it? ” Her screams mounted higher and higher until they reached ear- piercing shrieks.
mdp.39015012856574	Why did n't Kenneth say something now?
mdp.39015012856574	Why did n't some twentieth- century Moses arise to lead them out of the thraldom of this primitive re- ligion?
mdp.39015012856574	Why did n't they kill me?
mdp.39015012856574	Why did n't they kill me? ” Mamie's screams were horrible to hear.
mdp.39015012856574	Why did not the Church attract more intelligent and able young men of his race instead of men like Reverend Wilson?
mdp.39015012856574	Why did they pick on Mamie?
mdp.39015012856574	Why did you come back?"
mdp.39015012856574	Why do n't they bring them to trial and execute them legally instead of hanging and burning them?"
mdp.39015012856574	Why do n't you save up them repo'ts till you git a passel of them, and then bring'em in?
mdp.39015012856574	Why not end it all in one glorious orgy of killing?
mdp.39015012856574	Why should Roy Ewing have gone to Atlanta to see him?
mdp.39015012856574	Why was a man like Reverend Wil- son patted on the back and every Negro told that men of his kind were “ safe and sane leaders ”?
mdp.39015012856574	Why'd they bother a nice girl like Mamie?
mdp.39015012856574	Why?
mdp.39015012856574	Why? ” The judge repeated the inter- rogative as though it were a word he had never heard before.
mdp.39015012856574	Whyn't they take one of those girls that live in those houses on Butler Street?
mdp.39015012856574	Wo n't you run down there to see her? ”"I ca n't, mamma, until I am called in profession- ally.
mdp.39015012856574	Won- der if I can make a run for it?
mdp.39015012856574	Would he arrive?
mdp.39015012856574	You'll find things a lot different from the way they were when you went up North to school. ” “ What ’re you boys fussing about?

mdp.39015012856574	[ 191] THE FIRE IN THE FLINT “ And this happened right here in the coloured sec- tion? ” he asked in surprise.

mdp.39015012856574	ficulties of life, anyway?
mdp.39015012856574	“ But are they seeing it in the right way? ” asked Kenneth.
mdp.39015012856574	“ But ca n't you see that we feel towards our women just as you do towards yours?
mdp.39015012856574	“ Can you stop for a few minutes, Ken?
mdp.39015012856574	“ Do these folks have to buy their supplies from the landlord?
mdp.39015012856574	“ Do you need any money- credit- legal advice — that is, any we can give quietly without it getting out that we gave it?"
mdp.39015012856574	“ Do you remember any of the economics you learned at school? ” was the next query.
mdp.39015012856574	“ Do? ” he repeated.
mdp.39015012856574	“ Doc, why ai n't all these niggers good, sensible ones like you?
mdp.39015012856574	“ Good God, have n't these devils done enough to my family and me already?"
mdp.39015012856574	“ Have you got any books on co- operative socie- ties? ” He doubted whether he had.
mdp.39015012856574	“ How can you think of living down South again?
mdp.39015012856574	“ How'd he die? ” was the next question.
mdp.39015012856574	“ How're you goin't'do that? ” asked Lane.
mdp.39015012856574	“ Jane? ” he mimicked Kenneth's tone of surprise.
mdp.39015012856574	“ Ken, why did you come back to Central City?"
mdp.39015012856574	“ Kenneth, why do you spend all your time here in the office?
mdp.39015012856574	“ Let's see, mos'this trou- ble's stahted since that other doctor's been back, ai n't it? ” he asked as casually as he could.
mdp.39015012856574	“ Now about this plan you got- have you thought about the chances of your being misunderstood?
mdp.39015012856574	“ Oh, Lawdy, why did n't I do what Bud tol me to do?
mdp.39015012856574	“ Pretty nifty, eh, Ken? ” Kenneth, aroused suddenly from his retrospection and day- dreams, jumped at the unexpected voice be- hind him.
mdp.39015012856574	“ Protect me? ” Kenneth echoed with a rising, ques- tioning inflection.
mdp.39015012856574	“ Remember Jane Phillips?
mdp.39015012856574	“ Say, Doc, you know anything'bout these niggers'round here holdin'these meetin ’s nearly ev'ry night?
mdp.39015012856574	“ Shot through the abdomen. ” “ Know who shot him? ” “ Yes.
mdp.39015012856574	“ That's true, ” admitted Kenneth, “ but what ought we to do about this meeting last night? ”"Do? ” echoed Bob.
mdp.39015012856574	“ That's true, ” admitted Kenneth, “ but what ought we to do about this meeting last night? ”"Do? ” echoed Bob.
mdp.39015012856574	“ Well Bob, what do you make of it? ”"Trouble for somebody,"said Bob positively.
mdp.39015012856574	“ What are we going to do? ” echoed the elder man.
mdp.39015012856574	“ What do you think of him and his plan? ” asked Dr. Scott, half to himself.
mdp.39015012856574	“ What if there are mean white folks?
mdp.39015012856574	“ What nigger's dead now? ” he inquired.
mdp.39015012856574	“ What seems to be the trouble with her? ” he asked.
mdp.39015012856574	“ What world problem have you got on your mind now, Bob? ”"Do n't start to kidding me, Ken.

mdp.39015012856574	“ What's goin'on, Doc? ” he asked in an eager tone, from which he tried with but little success to keep the anxiety that he felt.
mdp.39015012856574	“ Why ca n't the South see where their course is leading them? ” asked Kenneth.
mdp.39015012856574	“ Why did I come back? ” he repeated.
mdp.39015012856574	“ Why did n't he come and ask me to save your daughter?
mdp.39015012856574	“ Why do n't they hire a lawyer? ” Kenneth asked, with little interest.
mdp.39015012856574	“ Why should they be after me?
mdp.39015012856574	“ Why this early morning humour?
mdp.39015012856574	“ Why?
mdp.39015012856574	“ Will she live? ” he asked, his words whispered in so hoarse a tone they could hardly be heard.
mdp.39015012856574	“ You ai n't getting scared out there, are you? ” the judge pressed the point.
mdp.39015012856574	“'Tain't no use t stand here all night talkin?

wu.89000744367	He swears he does n't but some of the things he says sometimes sound suspiciously like he's chaffing — that's a nice word, is n't it?
wu.89000744367	Hilda's mother?
wu.89000744367	Hilda?
wu.89000744367	Holy Mother, why did one see these things only when it was too late?
wu.89000744367	Honour?
wu.89000744367	I know just how you feel about it, but why do n't you put Jean in a home until you can get on your feet?
wu.89000744367	I suppose I ’ll stay on here as long as I can get along with Mrs. Daquin 92 “ Why did Jean marry her?
wu.89000744367	I told you you'd see all sorts of people here, did n't I? ” The music began again and there was a wild rush to the dance floor.
wu.89000744367	I want to see where they ’re going now! ”[ 98] FLIGHT “ Ai n’t I hurryin ’ as fast's I can? ” Mrs. Plummer grum- bled.
wu.89000744367	I work for my living. ” “ Your husband's dead, then? ” he remarked, looking at her black dress.
wu.89000744367	I ’ve got to have peace even if I have to go to the North Pole to get it — ” “ Why do you yield so easily to her?
wu.89000744367	I ’ve tried to con- form — but all the time I find myself saying: ‘ Is that so?'
wu.89000744367	I'm go- ing to have this baby, do you hear me?
wu.89000744367	If I had done any- thing of which I felt ashamed, it might worry me, but why worry one's head over something that does n't exist?
wu.89000744367	Is she still working for Fran- cine? ” “ Nope — some of the girls objected to her and raised such a row she left.
wu.89000744367	It would be much easier — ” “ Ignore them?
wu.89000744367	Jean dead?
wu.89000744367	Jean dead?
wu.89000744367	Justice?
wu.89000744367	Leave me here alone, wo n't you? ” He led the weeping Mrs. Daquin from the room and Mimi was alone with Jean.
wu.89000744367	Leave this old house? ” the questions tumbled out of her mouth, her eyes now wide- awake with surprise.
wu.89000744367	Mimi, have n't you any sense of decency at all?
wu.89000744367	Mrs. Daquin?
wu.89000744367	Mrs. Daquin?
wu.89000744367	Mrs. Hunter?
wu.89000744367	Must I come up for you? ” came again the voice from below, anger sharpening its usual petulance.
wu.89000744367	Now that Hilda had brought the fact tangibly to her consciousness, was it true that her feeling towards Carl was so wholly Platonic?
wu.89000744367	Oh, how do you do, Mrs. Lewis?
wu.89000744367	Oh, why did I ever leave New Or- leans?
wu.89000744367	Or let the past swal- low you up? ” She paused while Mimi sat in thought.
wu.89000744367	Our literature?
wu.89000744367	Right?
wu.89000744367	Say, was there many black balls in that box? ” he inquired, hopefully.
wu.89000744367	Say, where you from? ” “ New York, now.
wu.89000744367	See that nice- looking chap over there in that box?
wu.89000744367	She rebuff you, Bert? ” she inquired, mockingly.
wu.89000744367	Sick? ” inquired Mrs. Daquin.
wu.89000744367	Sit down, wo n't you? ” Mimi sat.
wu.89000744367	So that's how she's getting by, is it? ” She was in her element.
wu.89000744367	Suppose I should marry him?
wu.89000744367	That is, we're opposed when they really are attacks. ”[ 66] F LIGHT “ What do you mean — when they are attacks? ” the cashier demanded.
wu.89000744367	The Hunters?
wu.89000744367	The latter did not seem so important, but could she give up Jean for ever?
wu.89000744367	The man in Germantown?
wu.89000744367	The ques- tion you've got to decide is what you're going to do with it — make it fruitful and full and happy?

wu.89000744367	To whom could she turn?
wu.89000744367	Truth?
wu.89000744367	Truth?
wu.89000744367	Was any of this petty striving and scrambling worth half the things it took out of you?
wu.89000744367	We've developed the printing- press and the telephone and telegraph and the radio, but what has been the result?
wu.89000744367	Were they worth all the agony and bloodshed and sacrifice they had brought?
wu.89000744367	What about it, Mimi? ” “ Carl did take me to the dance, papa.
wu.89000744367	What are you going to do? ” “ I do n't know, Aunt Sophie — this thing has come on me so suddenly I ’m all upset.
wu.89000744367	What became of the baby? ”[ 202] F LIGHT “ The Lord only knows!
wu.89000744367	What church’re you planning to attend? ” “ Well — er — that's a problem we have n't met yet, ” Mrs. Daquin, somewhat flustered, replied.
wu.89000744367	What did she have to do with it? ” Mimi told her the story while Mrs. Hunter showed on her face the amazement she felt.
wu.89000744367	What do I care about right?
wu.89000744367	What if Carl is a weak and worthless scamp?
wu.89000744367	What of it? ” Mrs. Daquin's second interro- gation was almost a thin scream.
wu.89000744367	What of it? ” broke in Mimi.
wu.89000744367	What then would happen to him if he should live?
wu.89000744367	What though her money was disappearing so rapidly?
wu.89000744367	Where could she go?
wu.89000744367	Where?
wu.89000744367	Who can tell?
wu.89000744367	Who can tell?
wu.89000744367	Who would there be who could take his place — who could interest her as Carl had done?
wu.89000744367	Why bother about them?
wu.89000744367	Why ca n't people be just people and stop all this meanness? ” “ That is n't the point right now, Mimi, ” he explained.
wu.89000744367	Why do n't I cry, she wondered, like all women do and most men when death comes?
wu.89000744367	Why do n't you come down? ” a strident, querulous voice from below stirred him.
wu.89000744367	Why do n't you tell her right out you wo n't go and she must stop fussing at you 9[ 22] FLIGHT all the time?
wu.89000744367	Why not ignore the things that annoy you by their falseness?
wu.89000744367	Why should I settle down?
wu.89000744367	Why should I?
wu.89000744367	Why?
wu.89000744367	Why’n’t you tell me that before?
wu.89000744367	Will you dance with me? ” “ Thanks, no.

wu.89000744367	“ And ai n't I as anxious as you to follow'em?
wu.89000744367	“ And how did Mary seem to like it? ” he asked.
wu.89000744367	“ And to- morrow I'll take you to a doctor who'll fix you up — ” “ Fix me up? ” “ Yes — fix you up!
wu.89000744367	“ And what becomes of the extra hundred? ” Mimi asked.
wu.89000744367	“ And what's her name? ” On being told she went on: “ Mimi?
wu.89000744367	“ And what's her name? ” On being told she went on: “ Mimi?
wu.89000744367	“ Answer it, wo n't you, Miss Daquin, for me?
wu.89000744367	“ But what about the baby? ” his wife inquired.
wu.89000744367	“ But why have you acted as you have? ” she pursued the inquiry.
wu.89000744367	“ Carl, ” she cried as soon as he entered, “ I ’m going to have a baby! ” “ You ’re what? ” “ I ’m going to have a baby — Dr.

wu.89000744367	“ Did he say that really? ” Jean asked anxiously, yet hope- fully.
wu.89000744367	“ Gave him castor oil? ” Dr. Newton asked, incredulously.
wu.89000744367	“ Gene, are you listening to what I'm telling you? ” snapped Mr. Robertson, and Jean came back to realities with a start.
wu.89000744367	“ Go with you to France? ” she echoed.
wu.89000744367	“ Heard the news about that Lizzie Stone? ” she asked Mrs. Plummer.
wu.89000744367	“ Hello, ” he greeted her, “ and who are you? ” She told him.
wu.89000744367	“ Hey dere, Babe, what'cha doin’? ” called the first voice, and in response to the reply: “ Nothin'much.
wu.89000744367	“ How do you do? ” she questioned but in a tone that said plainly she did not expect nor did she want an answer to her inquiry.
wu.89000744367	“ How many times and to how many different girls have you said that? ” she countered.
wu.89000744367	“ How soon am I going to see you? ” he queried softly.
wu.89000744367	“ How'd you like to go with me to Paris next month to get new styles? ” Mimi came back to the subject at hand with a start.
wu.89000744367	“ Hurry up, ca n't you?
wu.89000744367	“ Is n't there anything else than operating? ” she pleaded.
wu.89000744367	“ It was on account of Hilda 22 “ Hilda?
wu.89000744367	“ Jean, do you hear what your daughter is saying?
wu.89000744367	“ Just what I say — how many of these attacks reported in the papers are really attacks?
wu.89000744367	“ Know her?
wu.89000744367	“ Mimi, I wonder if we have done right? ” he asked as he stood at the door, his voice worried, uncertain.
wu.89000744367	“ Mimi, tell me, have you decided?
wu.89000744367	“ Mimi, we're going to move away from New Orleans —'“ Move away?

wu.89000744367	“ Tell me — truthfully — Mimi – is that true? ” Her tone was so earnest, so appealing and fraught with apprehension, Mimi was startled.
wu.89000744367	“ Tell me, Bert, who are all these people? ” she asked him.
wu.89000744367	“ Tell me, Sylvia, what became of Miss Lawrence — the col- oured woman who was a fitter?
wu.89000744367	“ These peoples are rising because they have been exploited — and who has done the exploiting but the white nations?

wu.89000744367	“ What are you and Mimi going to do about attending church, Jean? ” began Mrs. Daquin.
wu.89000744367	“ What are your plans, Mimi?
wu.89000744367	“ What if it does make us different? ” Jean demanded, al- most belligerently.
wu.89000744367	“ What of it?
wu.89000744367	“ What's been done for him? ” Mimi told him of the doctor called by Mrs. Wil- liams, of the administration of castor oil.
wu.89000744367	“ What's the matter?
wu.89000744367	“ Where is he?
wu.89000744367	“ While I take him up to my room, will you get Dr. New- ton? ” she asked.
wu.89000744367	“ Why should you see me? ” he demanded, half angrily.
wu.89000744367	“ Why so bitter?
wu.89000744367	“ Why stay on here with her?
wu.89000744367	“ Why?

wu.89000744367	“ You speak French, do n't you?
wu.89000744367	“ You — love — me — too? ” he asked, amazement, doubt that he had heard aright in his voice.

mdp.39015081383146	“ Say, what ’s this? ” asked Atkinson, motioning his head at Adrian.
mdp.39015081383146	“ Shall it be the piano of the Victrola? ” she asked.

mdp.39015081383146	“ The blood shook you all up; shall I send for a doctor? ” “ Oh, no, Stanton! ” she protested.
mdp.39015081383146	“ Then you are interested just a little, are you? ” “ Only to the extent of hearing your wonderfully beautiful eulogies about the young lady.

mdp.39015081383146	“ Well, why? ” Elsie colored just-a little.
mdp.39015081383146	“ Well, ” said Zelda, “ after all, the joke is on me. ” “ What ’s the joke? ” he asked.
mdp.39015081383146	“ What about yourself? ”'“ Myself? ” she answered, with a little care- free smile.
mdp.39015081383146	“ What about yourself? ”'“ Myself? ” she answered, with a little care- free smile.

mdp.39015081383146	“ What shall I do with it?
mdp.39015081383146	“ What ’s the matter? ” she asked of Anne, one of the maids.
mdp.39015081383146	“ Where is your country? ” Her words were scarcely audible.
mdp.39015081383146	“ Who knows? ” they soliloquized.
mdp.39015081383146	“ Why did you come here again to- day? ” she asked.'
mdp.39015081383146	“ Why did you leave me in New York?
mdp.39015081383146	“ Why do n’t I go back and get the thing that I want most in life? ” he at length asked him- self numberless times a day.
mdp.39015081383146	“ Why not stay in my country? ” he went on jestingly.
mdp.39015081383146	“ Why not? ” They understood each other and could at least get along.
mdp.39015081383146	“ Why, then, do I not go back? ” he asked him- self.
mdp.39015081383146	“ Why? ” queried the bird.

mdp.39015081383146	“ Won’t‘you get in? ” she asked.
mdp.39015081383146	“ Yes; and you? ” she replied and asked as she dipped her fingers into the little silver finger- bowl.
mdp.39015081383146	“ Yes; what shall it be?
mdp.39015081383146	“ You are scarcely old enough to look matronly yet, but why do you ask me? ” he returned.
mdp.39015081383146	“ You go to the ‘ Home ’ this afternoon, do you not? ” Stanton asked when they had finished luncheon.
mdp.39015081383146	“ You here? ” she asked, alarmed.

mdp.39015016414768	What is it?
mdp.39015016414768	You mean it was your fault? ” Even with a front end a New York hackie never admitted he was at fault. mdp.39015016414768 You wanna tell me your name now? ” Hubert mumbled his name.

mdp.39015016414768	A pimp walking down Seventh Avenue looked down at the man who was shining shoes and 151 said, “ What's happening today, Pops?"
mdp.39015016414768	After all, a man his age... “ Then what the hell are you talking to her for? ” 19 The man stood up.
mdp.39015016414768	All you had to do was let one of them know you liked him a little bit, and right off he... how did the song go?
mdp.39015016414768	An old woman sitting in the shade of her newsstand called across the street,"What did he say? ” The young men told her what the first number was.
mdp.39015016414768	And who was she calling Pops?

mdp.39015016414768	Bernice asked, “ Why do you fellows travel around with a crackpot? ” “ That's because he's got all the money, ” said James Lee.
mdp.39015016414768	But were n't there weight limitations on the New York police force?

mdp.39015016414768	But what did it matter?
mdp.39015016414768	But why not splurge a bit?
mdp.39015016414768	But why should he care if Hubert threw his money away?
mdp.39015016414768	But why should he feel bad?
mdp.39015016414768	But why worry about Essie at all?
mdp.39015016414768	Ca n't you talk? ” Hubert took a deep breath, cleared his throat, and spoke again.
mdp.39015016414768	Coming home from work some of them had stopped to inquire, “ You taking a trip, Mister Hubert?"
mdp.39015016414768	Could Hubert be dangerous?
mdp.39015016414768	Could he be dangerous?
mdp.39015016414768	Could something have happened to him?
mdp.39015016414768	Could that be Hubert Cooley?
mdp.39015016414768	Did he mean the Negro drivers, or hackies in gen- eral?
mdp.39015016414768	Did n't he like coming to work in the morning and knowing his car would be there wait- ing for him?
mdp.39015016414768	Did n't he like having a new car to drive?
mdp.39015016414768	Did n't he like having a whole army of mechanics waiting to take care of his car when it broke down?
mdp.39015016414768	Did n't he like working for Frank?
mdp.39015016414768	Did n't you know you could get killed over there?
mdp.39015016414768	Did n't you say to yourself,'Why, I can get killed and wo n't have a damned thing to say about it?"
mdp.39015016414768	Did you ever catch him spending a dime unless he ex- pected to make two more?
mdp.39015016414768	Did you ever see so much hot weather in your life?

mdp.39015016414768	Do you know? ” “ No, I do n't, ” McGowan laughed, “ but I sure thought you did, coming in here with your butt full of lead and steel.
mdp.39015016414768	Each morning he woke up with the thought: What is this fool going to say next?
mdp.39015016414768	Essie seemed so happy that Iretha asked, “ Girl, are you all right? ”"Well, look at me,"said Essie, spreading her arms.

mdp.39015016414768	He turned to Eva- Vels, 171 line and said,"Give me one of those accident forms, will you, Evaline?"
mdp.39015016414768	He wanted to lie back on the cot, but what if this Preacher fellow were to wake up and find Hubert off his guard?
mdp.39015016414768	Hell, is that all I'm living for?
mdp.39015016414768	How could he make a living if there were no fools with money?
mdp.39015016414768	How did I ever stand it?
mdp.39015016414768	How in the world had she got stuck with a runt like McGowan?
mdp.39015016414768	How many times have I wanted to really talk to Essie?
mdp.39015016414768	How the hell would I know?
mdp.39015016414768	I do n't even like the stuff, but it makes me different, see? ” “ Yeah. ” “ Everybody ought to have something that sets them apart.
mdp.39015016414768	If Justice and Right did not triumph?
mdp.39015016414768	If things work out right, would you — you know you ought to, but would you — come away with me? ” Sister Clarisse did not know what to say.
mdp.39015016414768	Instead of just writing the figures and turning the profits over to someone else, why not bank them himself?
mdp.39015016414768	Is he sure enough? ”"Sure he is.
mdp.39015016414768	Is n't this the ad- dress I gave you?
mdp.39015016414768	It was: Baby, you know I love you, do n't you, honey?
mdp.39015016414768	James Lee Cooley, he thought, what the hell are you up to now?
mdp.39015016414768	Lord, Lord, thought Gertrude, where in the world am I supposed to start looking for that crazy man?
mdp.39015016414768	Now what was it I was just talking about on the tele- phone?
mdp.39015016414768	One day McGowan suddenly asked, “ Boy, you got a girl back home? ” “ I got lots of'em.
mdp.39015016414768	One day he said to James Lee, “ Man, you know what's wrong with you?
mdp.39015016414768	One of them said to the cop, “ What's up, Doc? ” The cop held up four fingers and walked on.

mdp.39015016414768	She was just- “ Where're you going, driver?
mdp.39015016414768	Some- thing the matter with Mister Hubert? ” “ No, nothing's the matter, Mr. Curtis. ” She walked to the door.

mdp.39015016414768	Suddenly Hubert said, “ Do we have any money, Gertrude?"

mdp.39015016414768	Suppose something had happened there last night-a robbery, burglary, rape, or something?
mdp.39015016414768	Suppose that dispatcher had given his taxi to someone else?
mdp.39015016414768	That right? ”"Yeah, that's right. ” McGowan chuckled and went on with his breakfast.
mdp.39015016414768	That was her blood, was n't it, the pinkish splotches on the white enamel?
mdp.39015016414768	The driver pushed his head through the window and said lazily,"Hey, Pop, wassa matter?
mdp.39015016414768	The one where you live?"
mdp.39015016414768	The question was: How much money could he back with his own bank and how much would he have to pass on?
mdp.39015016414768	The sergeant punctuated his thought with: “ And do n't forget to get on the front of the train, d'ya hear, young fella?"
mdp.39015016414768	There're plenty of guys around who'd be happy to drive a new car. ” “ What can I do, Frank? ” said Danny with a spread of his hands.
mdp.39015016414768	Tired of living, huh? ” Hubert did not hear him.
mdp.39015016414768	Try to stop him? ” “ Not a word.

mdp.39015016414768	Was it his fault?
mdp.39015016414768	Was n't that the way the big white man stayed on top?
mdp.39015016414768	Well, had n't she been telling him all along that kids were the best things in the world?
mdp.39015016414768	Well, what was it they said?
mdp.39015016414768	What are you drinking, pretty?"
mdp.39015016414768	What did he want of any woman?
mdp.39015016414768	What did the young man think?
mdp.39015016414768	What do you think of that? ” He set her down and went back to the card table where he continued his figuring.
mdp.39015016414768	What do you want me to do, crawl in here on my hands and knees?
mdp.39015016414768	What had a rowboat to do with that?
mdp.39015016414768	What happened?
mdp.39015016414768	What in the world had got into the kid?
mdp.39015016414768	What kind of garage had a dispatcher who had 89 never hacked?

mdp.39015016414768	Where did that come from? ” He took his list and checked off his four money.
mdp.39015016414768	Where do you get off?
mdp.39015016414768	Where was James Lee?

mdp.39015016414768	Why did n't he want her to try?
mdp.39015016414768	Why do they keep letting him out?"
mdp.39015016414768	Why had n't he bet the money with the big bank in the first place instead of taking a silly chance?
mdp.39015016414768	Why in the world was he being so serious?
mdp.39015016414768	Why not make some real money for himself and step into the big league?
mdp.39015016414768	Why was it that whenever he found himself alone in a room with Essie he began to feel restless, hemmed in?
mdp.39015016414768	Why, he wondered, was the graveyard shift in a Harlem precinct always like the Fourth of July?
mdp.39015016414768	Why? ” McGowan snorted, but James Lee felt he was on sure ground.

mdp.39015016414768	“ May I ask what number you're playing today, Mister Hubert? ”"Four- seventeen,"said Hubert.
mdp.39015016414768	“ My name is Hubert Cooley. ” Where did Hubert live?
mdp.39015016414768	“ Over where? ” McGowan looked shocked, but his eyes twinkled.
mdp.39015016414768	“ Planning anything soon? ” Mabel asked sweetly.
mdp.39015016414768	“ Sister Clarisse, what do you think of me?"

mdp.39015016414768	“ What are you going to do with all that money, Mister Hubert?"
mdp.39015016414768	“ What did you think I was doing? ” The words sounded just the way he had wanted them to, bold and self- possessed.
mdp.39015016414768	“ What did you think?"
mdp.39015016414768	“ What did? ” she asked.
mdp.39015016414768	“ What do you mean, different? ” He was almost 46 gruff.
mdp.39015016414768	“ What the hell is this?"
mdp.39015016414768	“ What the hell were you doing over there in those hills, boy? ” McGowan pointed in the gen- eral direction of Korea.

mdp.39015016414768	“ What's your name, boy? ” the cop demanded.
mdp.39015016414768	“ When that Chinese boy busted your backside with that grenade, did n't it make you stop and think?
mdp.39015016414768	“ Where did you get the money? ” “ I turned the number around and played 417. ”.
mdp.39015016414768	“ Where're you from, boy? ” “ New York.
mdp.39015016414768	“ Why do n't you just go away somewhere and leave me alone?
mdp.39015016414768	“ Yes, Iretha? ” “ I'm sorry, but Essie says she does n't want to talk with you.
mdp.39015016414768	“ Yes, Madam. ”"Is this the quickest way we can go? ”"It's the quickest way I know,"James Lee said.
mdp.39015016414768	“ Yes, and three more on the same block. ”"Well, why did n't you tell me that in the first place?
mdp.39015016414768	“ You do love me and want to marry me, do n't you, James Lee? ”.
mdp.39015016414768	“ You ever been to San Francisco? ” The woman was startled.
mdp.39015016414768	“ You get the idea. ” “ You mean you're leaving home- Mama and everything?"
mdp.39015016414768	“ You going someplace? ” “ That's right, ” said Hubert.
mdp.39015016414768	“ You got any money? ” “ Why?"
mdp.39015016414768	“ You got any money? ” “ Why?"
mdp.39015016414768	“ You mean there's nothing wrong with you? ” James Lee said coldly.
mdp.39015016414768	“ You're different, you know that? ” She snapped off the light and lay beside him.
mdp.39015016414768	“ You've got to give me a rub- down to tell me that? ” He took his hands away and walked out of the office.

mdp.39015016415658	Some Friday?"
mdp.39015016415658	Suppose he had told her all this?
mdp.39015016415658	Suppose he had told her that he came from nowhere; that he was the unclaimed and unknown son of an English father and a Jamaican mulatto mother?
mdp.39015016415658	That he had grown halfway to manhood before he had ever owned a pair of trousers, had ever eaten a meal at a table, had ever slept in a bed?
mdp.39015016415658	That this unwedded mother — so young and so beautiful — had died giving birth to his half- sister?
mdp.39015016415658	That's wrong, is n't it?
mdp.39015016415658	The'Conqueror's'kiss?"
mdp.39015016415658	Then he added boldly,"What are you kicking about?

mdp.39015016415658	Then, turning to Leonard, he asked,"Can you sing, young fellow?"
mdp.39015016415658	There was a sofa and comfortable chairs — but why tell about this room now?
mdp.39015016415658	They would in- quire,"How's little Scat this morning, Aunt Mary?"
mdp.39015016415658	Think you will like to ride on the train?"

mdp.39015016415658	Was n't he there?
mdp.39015016415658	Was n't its father a foreigner?"
mdp.39015016415658	Was n't that a fine way to die, Leonard?"
mdp.39015016415658	Was there no limit to his genius?
mdp.39015016415658	Whar yuh at?"

mdp.39015016415658	What name yer got?
mdp.39015016415658	What on earth did those poor folks ever do to you that makes you hate them so?"
mdp.39015016415658	What they call you?"

mdp.39015016415658	What's hitting a"poor- white"man?
mdp.39015016415658	When he entered the house her merry voice called,"Leonard, is that you?"

mdp.39015016415658	Who?
mdp.39015016415658	Why did n't he git one of the grandchildren to live with him if he had to have a boy?

mdp.39015016415658	Will yuh, honey?"
mdp.39015016415658	Wo n't you come in and wait?"
mdp.39015016415658	Would he get to see her now, after so long?
mdp.39015016415658	Would it be all right to ask a girl you did n't love to marry you?
mdp.39015016415658	Would she have shunned him?
mdp.39015016415658	Would the old man purchase the pig?

mdp.39015016452750	I wonder if a man like him has a conscience?
mdp.39015016452750	Is anyone else waiting to see me?
mdp.39015016452750	Is it all right to smoke? ” I asked Josh. mdp.39015016452750 Is it formal? ”"Oh, no, no, no,"Taz hastened to assure.
mdp.39015016452750	Like what, for instance? ” He reached for his drink, without looking, as if it had been there all along. mdp.39015016452750 Miss Addie, ” he chided his wife, “ what you goin'do when they order you out of your own house? ” “ Let me ask you that question, Mr.

uc1.b3688021	Now who mixed that blood?
uc1.b3688021	Of what race and nationality am I? ” “ You are colored, are you not? ” “ What do you say? ” “ I?

uc1.b3688021	Oh, God, what shall I do? ” “ It never occurred to me that it would make any differ- ence, ” he defended.
uc1.b3688021	Oh, what ’s the use?
uc1.b3688021	Oh, why did I ever send you away from me?

uc1.b3688021	She will be deserted by her own people. ” “ Wo n't you and mother accept her? ” “ Yes, Boy.
uc1.b3688021	Since when?
uc1.b3688021	So long as they ob- serve the laws of society, what matters to us?
uc1.b3688021	Some nigger- loving stranger? ” 161 BY SAN CTION OF LAW Dr. Tansey stood erect, his eyes blazing, “ You ’re a lot of brutes, ” he exclaimed.
uc1.b3688021	Sup- pose they were not real Christians?
uc1.b3688021	Suppose bye and bye somebody else sees them? ” “ Yes, just suppose, ” suggested Marley facetiously.
uc1.b3688021	Suppose for one day they all should run amuck?
uc1.b3688021	Tell me, Truman, is that so?
uc1.b3688021	That you deem it a fac- ulty matter? ” “ You ’ll see how serious it is, ” she snapped.
uc1.b3688021	That ’s where she's from? ” he asked.
uc1.b3688021	That ’s why I'm at the head of this school. ” “ Do you regret giving up your love? ” Lida probed.
uc1.b3688021	The question is, in your case, is he worth the worry and sacri- fice to be entailed?
uc1.b3688021	The young man who rescued you and Miss Lauriston? ” At mention of the name the girl looked up with a gasp of surprise.
uc1.b3688021	They had a celebration them- selves after you retired. ” “ It ’s good to be loved so well, is n’t it, Daddy? ” “ Yes, my child.
uc1.b3688021	They ’re two proud families and the old men have fixed it up so ’s Lida and young John can hit it off together. ” “ What's the matter?
uc1.b3688021	This is a white man ’s civilization. ” I56 BY SAN CTION OF LAW “ Are you afraid to let anybody else have a little bit of it?
uc1.b3688021	To confirm his conclusion he turned to Professor Armstrong, “ That ’s the same young man? ” he asked.
uc1.b3688021	Trafford did n’t get half what he deserved from that fellow. ” “ What can you do about it now? ” “ There's nothing to be done about it now.
uc1.b3688021	Was n't it awful?
uc1.b3688021	We love the black man — in his place. ” “ Under your feet, I suppose? ” “ Well, pretty much so.
uc1.b3688021	We ’ll start in the morning, eh, Bennet? ” “ All right.
uc1.b3688021	What about my honor — my pledged and sacred word? ” he asked.
uc1.b3688021	What are you going south for? ” “ I ’ll ask the same of you, Doctor?
uc1.b3688021	What are you going south for? ” “ I ’ll ask the same of you, Doctor?
uc1.b3688021	What can we do? ” Sensing the hopelessness of the question and the fu- tility of an answer, Bennet remained silent.
uc1.b3688021	What could she do?
uc1.b3688021	What did you mean? ” “ Not that, not that, not that, ” Miss Gregory wailed.
uc1.b3688021	What if the words of Louise Comstock were true?
uc1.b3688021	What right's he got to lose his mind over Lida ’s marrying the man she wants?
uc1.b3688021	What shall I do?
uc1.b3688021	What sort of a man is Truman Bennet?
uc1.b3688021	What time?
uc1.b3688021	What was she to do now?
uc1.b3688021	What was the trouble? ” Miss Gregory was watching the expression on the girl's face keenly.
uc1.b3688021	What will become of my school if such a thing happens? ” Her voice was now raised almost to a shrill in her excite- ment.
uc1.b3688021	What would I do without you now?
uc1.b3688021	What would happen?
uc1.b3688021	What ’s the trouble? ” The girl silently closed the door then stepped close to Lida.
uc1.b3688021	What'll you do about it?
uc1.b3688021	What's she doing down here this time of year? ” “ Somewhere up in the Palmetto state, I do n’t know where.
uc1.b3688021	Where are you bound?
uc1.b3688021	Where did you meet him?
uc1.b3688021	Where did you meet him?
uc1.b3688021	Where would your wealth be if you did not have them to work your fields?
uc1.b3688021	Where ’re you stopping, when you get to Charleston? ” “ Do n’t know.
uc1.b3688021	Where ’ve you been? ” he demanded abruptly.
uc1.b3688021	Where's the blame?
uc1.b3688021	Where's the old varmint?
uc1.b3688021	Where's the young dog? ” Louise Comstock went over to the group of colored people.
uc1.b3688021	Wherein are you more royal than I?
uc1.b3688021	Which is right?
uc1.b3688021	Who are his parents? ” “ He ’s in the graduating class at college — He's a senior.
uc1.b3688021	Who is he?
uc1.b3688021	Who is she?
uc1.b3688021	Who'll stop me? ” she asked as she stamped her foot angrily.
uc1.b3688021	Why are you so sure? ” He gripped her hand fiercely, not knowing what to anticipate.
uc1.b3688021	Why could n’t I have learned it before?
uc1.b3688021	Why do men fight and kill anyway? ” Miss Comstock looked at her companion.
uc1.b3688021	Why do you people in the South insist on foisting your beliefs upon everybody else?
uc1.b3688021	Why go south at all?
uc1.b3688021	Why interfere?
uc1.b3688021	Why worry? ” “ But, you do n’t understand.
uc1.b3688021	Will you be able to manage? ” Lida indicated that she could.
uc1.b3688021	With that she burst out, “ Oh, Miss Gregory, how did you know?
uc1.b3688021	With this realiza- tion she asked: “ Have you seen him often? ” “ Yes, when at games and at other times the boys give.
uc1.b3688021	Wo n’t the wedding be fun? ” at the conjuring up of which she laughed again and clapped her hands.
uc1.b3688021	Wo n’t they let the young lady choose for herself? ” “ Not much, they wo n’t.
uc1.b3688021	Wo n’t you tell me what ails you and let me help you? ” Lida persisted pityingly.
uc1.b3688021	Would you defy your father?
uc1.b3688021	Would you have shot them for me? ” Lida leaned her head on his breast and clutched the lapels of his coat as she began to weep.
uc1.b3688021	Would you want to do differently than I? ” he asked tenderly.
uc1.b3688021	Yet what could he do?
uc1.b3688021	You did n’t care what the man was, you just loved him? ” Miss Gregory bowed her head in assent.
uc1.b3688021	You'll be visiting me, wo n’t you? ” “ Certainly, Goosie, ” she twitted.
uc1.b3688021	and where's the girl — where's the mob — who hit me with that brick? ” “ Ah, ” exclaimed the doctor.
uc1.b3688021	and you call them lazy. ” “ Well, who's going to do the work?
uc1.b3688021	what ’s the use?
uc1.b3688021	– I wonder how long that sort of thing will last?
uc1.b3688021	– We ’ll have to use two horses. ” “ Where's the nearest minister? ” Bennet asked.
uc1.b3688021	– Who shall I call for? ” “ Dr.
uc1.b3688021	— And all for what?
uc1.b3688021	— Did you see his face?
uc1.b3688021	— He's placed a guard over me — he wants me to marry someone else — don't you see?
uc1.b3688021	— How long shall I be here?
uc1.b3688021	— Oh, God, how can men be such brutes? ” she agonized.
uc1.b3688021	— They wo n’t let you off this place. ” “ Wo n’t let me off?
uc1.b3688021	— What about their women?
uc1.b3688021	— When will you marry the girl?
uc1.b3688021	— Which is the truer love?
uc1.b3688021	— Who'll I get to work my farm? ” The overseer exclaimed.
uc1.b3688021	— Why do n’t you tell us about her? ” he asked with- out giving the young man a chance to reply.
uc1.b3688021	— Would it relieve you of your suffering? ” Lida looked up, touched his arm, tears dripping from her lashes.
uc1.b3688021	— and what ’s she like? ” The elder man asked.
uc1.b3688021	— where did you first meet him?
uc1.b3688021	— “ On your honeymoon?
uc1.b3688021	“ All the same — two or one — what does it matter? ” the doctor replied shaking his head in a whimsical man- ner.
uc1.b3688021	“ And why? ” Elvin refused to answer.
uc1.b3688021	“ And yet, Dear Heart, I wonder if I ’m right in taking you away from all you ’ve known and loved in your growing years? ” Lida turned to him.
uc1.b3688021	“ Are n't you making sacrifices for me?
uc1.b3688021	“ Are n’t you ’ fraid you ’ll leave some grease on the road traipsin''long at this rate, John?
uc1.b3688021	“ Are you sure he's not dead? ” she asked.
uc1.b3688021	“ Are you tired, after last night? ” he asked, tenderly.
uc1.b3688021	“ Awake, Doctor? ” he asked.
uc1.b3688021	“ Bennet shall have his chance also. ” “ Is that necessary? ” returned Miss Gregory with a feel- ing of misgiving.
uc1.b3688021	“ Besides are n’t you preparing your own funerals?
uc1.b3688021	“ Can I help you in any way? ” Elvin lost no time in explaining his errand.
uc1.b3688021	“ Did you know yours? ” A cold moisture dampened Elvin ’s forehead as he stood in the cold clammy vault.
uc1.b3688021	“ Do you feel well enough to travel? ” he asked so- licitously.
uc1.b3688021	“ Have you a revolver? ” Reaching into his rear pocket Professor Armstrong drew from its holster a blue steeled six- shooter.
uc1.b3688021	“ I chanced to meet the young woman, in the North and found her to be exceedingly ladylike. ” “ Going to call, are you? ” Mrs. Gorton asked.
uc1.b3688021	“ I loved you and you loved me, of what matter anything else?
uc1.b3688021	“ I wonder if she would understand?
uc1.b3688021	“ I wonder what it was all about?
uc1.b3688021	“ I wonder, ” she sighed, “ if we'll ever meet?
uc1.b3688021	“ Is that you? ” “ Lida, Heart, what are you doing here at this time?
uc1.b3688021	“ Is that you? ” “ Lida, Heart, what are you doing here at this time?
uc1.b3688021	“ Know anybody down here? ” “ Not a soul that I ’m aware of. ” “ Well, you ’ll have to be very careful.
uc1.b3688021	“ Neighbors do n’t usually have to ask, about here do they? ” “ If they call in the heat of the day.
uc1.b3688021	“ No girl ’s got any business running about over the coun- try alone. ” “ Indeed?
uc1.b3688021	“ No?
uc1.b3688021	“ Oh, God, ” she said, “ is that the trouble?
uc1.b3688021	“ Oh, bosh, ca n’t you forget that Bennet episode?
uc1.b3688021	“ Oh, here so soon? ” Lida asked.
uc1.b3688021	“ Oh, why did I let you leave us! — Why did I? — Think what might have happened! ” “ Oh, but we ’re all right now, ” Lida volunteered.
uc1.b3688021	“ Professor Armstrong — ” “ Oh, Professor Armstrong?
uc1.b3688021	“ Records of black as well as white people? ” Elvin asked again.
uc1.b3688021	“ Suppose you find what she says is true?
uc1.b3688021	“ Tell me your trouble, Dear, wo n’t you?
uc1.b3688021	“ That ’s where she's from?
uc1.b3688021	“ To what am I indebted for this so early a visit on such a spring morning?
uc1.b3688021	“ True, but what love can compensate a woman for the love of a strong good man and children?
uc1.b3688021	“ Vote se – cretly?
uc1.b3688021	“ Was n’t it awful? ” she commented, half mus- 3I BY SANCTION OF LAW ingly.
uc1.b3688021	“ Were you ever in love? ” “ Foolish child.
uc1.b3688021	“ Were you hurt?
uc1.b3688021	“ What about the man! ” “ Him?
uc1.b3688021	“ What do you mean? ” Lida asked.
uc1.b3688021	“ What has she to lose? ” Little did he realize that Lida, too, was suffering as had he.
uc1.b3688021	“ What have we to do with the personal affairs of one who has broken no college rule?
uc1.b3688021	“ What made you ill, dear?
uc1.b3688021	“ What matter's it to you? ” she asked.
uc1.b3688021	“ What was that? ” he turned to Dr. Tansey.
uc1.b3688021	“ What will your father say?
uc1.b3688021	“ What ’s that, mother? ” he questioned as he placed an arm about her waist.
uc1.b3688021	“ What ’s the matter, Doctor? ” he asked.
uc1.b3688021	“ What ’s the trouble?
uc1.b3688021	“ What ’s this for? ” he asked.
uc1.b3688021	“ What's the matter, boy?
uc1.b3688021	“ What? ” exclaimed Miss Gregory, as she held each girl off at arm ’s length and inspected them, fear in her heart again.
uc1.b3688021	“ Where ’re you bound?
uc1.b3688021	“ Where ’re you going? ” asked Bennet showing impa- tience.
uc1.b3688021	“ Where's the young woman?
uc1.b3688021	“ Who is he?
uc1.b3688021	“ Why did you want me to remain here, Doctor? ” “ Shut up and do n’t bother me, ” Dr. Tansey exclaimed petulantly in his excitement.
uc1.b3688021	“ Why should I care?
uc1.b3688021	“ Why should I?
uc1.b3688021	“ Why — why — wh- wh- what ’s the matter with Louise? ” Lida asked turning to Bennet.
uc1.b3688021	“ Why, what's the matter?
uc1.b3688021	“ Will I pass? ” he asked as he stood before her.
uc1.b3688021	“ Without being asked? ” Lida queried.
uc1.b3688021	“ Yes, after Dr. Tansey ’s awful death — You heard about that? ” she rattled on.
uc1.b3688021	“ Yes. ” “ For my sake, Truman, you'll always be careful? ” she asked again.
uc1.b3688021	“ Yes. ” “ You still love, do n’t you? ” “ Yes. ” “ And that is true love, is n’t it?
uc1.b3688021	“ Yes. ” “ You still love, do n’t you? ” “ Yes. ” “ And that is true love, is n’t it?
uc1.b3688021	“ You do n’t believe a Negro is the equal of a white man, do you? ” he was asked.
uc1.b3688021	“ You have here the records of births, deaths and marriages? ” he asked.
uc1.b3688021	“ You knew of the fate of poor Dr. Tansey, did you? ” Bennet whirled.
uc1.b3688021	“ You wo n’t like him though, and I ’m sorry for that because I ’m going to marry him. ” “ Whether I will it or not?
uc1.b3688021	“ You wo n’t like him, Daddy, and I ’m sorry — so sor- ry. ” “ Why wo n't I like him?
uc1.b3688021	“ You ’ll be careful, always, wo n’t you, Truman? ” she warned solicitously.
uc1.b3688021	“ You ’ll be discovered if you do. ” Bennet realized the truth of the words but asked, “ Had n't I better go a little further?
uc1.b3688021	“ You ’ll drive me off my place, will you?
uc1.b3688021	“ You ’ll not marry me, eh — I insult you, eh?
uc1.b3688021	“ You ’ve met my friends? ” Dean Sandager asked bowing toward those standing with him.
uc1.b3688021	“ Your northern friend, I suppose? ” Marley continued.

mdp.39015056261855	Why should he say that?"
mdp.39015056261855	Why the deuce did he say us?
mdp.39015056261855	Why was it that I could never be cleared from trouble?
mdp.39015056261855	Why was my bosom a rebellious ground wherein warfare was continuously waged?
mdp.39015056261855	Why, how could I hide it from an all'searching vision?
mdp.39015056261855	Why, they do n't for a moment suppose you would come for nothing, do they?"
mdp.39015056261855	Will they, even in Chicago, one of the freest of cities, permit him to go in bathing along with white toughs and chippies?
mdp.39015056261855	Wo n't you?"
mdp.39015056261855	Would it be a satisfaction unto you?
mdp.39015056261855	Would it not be frank in me to say that man was more nearly the creation of the devil than of God?
mdp.39015056261855	Would you like for a boy to inherit your disappointed ambitions?
mdp.39015056261855	Would you mind going there with me?"
mdp.39015056261855	Would you not implore Christ to forgive you?
mdp.39015056261855	You do n't call the soul a beast, do you?"
mdp.39015056261855	You have a quick flow of primitive inspu?
mdp.39015056261855	Young lambs could not be parted from lechery, the Avon poet made a brutish man to say, then what could be expected of the goat full grown?
mdp.39015056261855	v •"How did you know?
mdp.39015028095795	A game?
mdp.39015028095795	A man?
mdp.39015028095795	After that lovely speech, Mrs. Bates- to- be, how about another little one?
mdp.39015028095795	Alicia, darling, can I really trust you? mdp.39015028095795 American men in any position do n't marry colored women, do they?
mdp.39015028095795	And now you're happy?
mdp.39015028095795	And she tells them afterwards what a smart little son she has?
mdp.39015028095795	And you have n't been going about with anyone else?
mdp.39015028095795	And you're going to marry him?
mdp.39015028095795	And you've been here helping her?
mdp.39015028095795	Anybody I know?
mdp.39015028095795	Are n't you getting a bit confused? mdp.39015028095795 Are we in earnest?"
mdp.39015028095795	Are you glad now?
mdp.39015028095795	Bring what that much nearer?
mdp.39015028095795	But if she ai n't white, why ai n't she white? mdp.39015028095795 But your appoint- ments?"
mdp.39015028095795	But, Ma, how can she be?
mdp.39015028095795	But, Ma, how can that be her mother? mdp.39015028095795 But, Mamma, what difference does it make?
mdp.39015028095795	But,said Janet,"do you really like these people, Olivia?
mdp.39015028095795	Can you think of anything worse? mdp.39015028095795 Coming to see me soon?"
mdp.39015028095795	Dad, can I depend upon you for that? mdp.39015028095795 Divorced, married?"
mdp.39015028095795	Do n't I know it? mdp.39015028095795 Do n't I make you tired?
mdp.39015028095795	Do they? mdp.39015028095795 Do you put stuff on your hair to make it look like that?"
mdp.39015028095795	Do you think you could learn to laugh?
mdp.39015028095795	Does she?
mdp.39015028095795	First of all,she asked them,"are you in earnest?
mdp.39015028095795	For ever and ever?
mdp.39015028095795	Gosh, what is it? mdp.39015028095795 Got ready for what?"
mdp.39015028095795	H'm, think you know all about it, do n't you, Miss?
mdp.39015028095795	Has she ever seen you? mdp.39015028095795 Have you got the car there?"
mdp.39015028095795	Hey there, Cary, how're you making it?
mdp.39015028095795	Honor bright, Dad?
mdp.39015028095795	How about me for young- man- in- waiting?
mdp.39015028095795	How about taking them on, Tess, for the sake of old Alma Mater?
mdp.39015028095795	How could you have met her in Chicago two years ago? mdp.39015028095795 How do you like my dress?"
mdp.39015028095795	How does Teresa's health strike you now, Doctor?
mdp.39015028095795	How'd you happen to come home?
mdp.39015028095795	How'd you like to come and live with me and let me be your mother?
mdp.39015028095795	How'd you like to take us on for good, Teresa? mdp.39015028095795 How's she going to live over there on seven hundred dollars?"
mdp.39015028095795	How's tricks? mdp.39015028095795 I do n't think that's Teresa's fault, do you?
mdp.39015028095795	In those clothes? mdp.39015028095795 Kin I come over?
mdp.39015028095795	Know what I think? mdp.39015028095795 Lee, darling Lee, what shall I do?"
mdp.39015028095795	Little boy, can you keep a secret?
mdp.39015028095795	Mamma, why ca n't I play with Marise? mdp.39015028095795 Mind what?"
mdp.39015028095795	Mother,said little Olivia,"have you ever told anybody in this town we are colored?"
mdp.39015028095795	No, I would n't want to either, but what about you? mdp.39015028095795 Oh,"she complained wearily,"what has all this to do with us, Nicholas?"
mdp.39015028095795	Oliver? mdp.39015028095795 Phebe, how can I ever let you go?"
mdp.39015028095795	Phebe,he asked, leaning forward,"in God's name, what are you talking about?"
mdp.39015028095795	Presents?
mdp.39015028095795	So now she does n't think you're such a baby any more?
mdp.39015028095795	Surprise?
mdp.39015028095795	Teresa, how many times must I tell you these things? mdp.39015028095795 Then you changed your mind?"
mdp.39015028095795	Tomorrow?
mdp.39015028095795	Was that her mother?
mdp.39015028095795	Was that some friend of Janet's, Teresa? mdp.39015028095795 Well, he's to go off too to some good school sooner or later, is n't he?"
mdp.39015028095795	Well, what about it?
mdp.39015028095795	Well, what objections do you have to my going too?
mdp.39015028095795	Well,he began,"it would only make matters worse, would n't it, if I pretended not to know what is in your mind?
mdp.39015028095795	What about you? mdp.39015028095795 What are you talking about?
mdp.39015028095795	What did she say then?
mdp.39015028095795	What did the teacher say?
mdp.39015028095795	What did you do, Mother? mdp.39015028095795 What do you mean, surprise?"
mdp.39015028095795	What do you say to our going up into the Park and finding a nice cosy bench?
mdp.39015028095795	What is he, for pity's sake?
mdp.39015028095795	What oc- casion would a girl, looking like her, have to talk about color?
mdp.39015028095795	What on earth has that got to do with it?
mdp.39015028095795	What requirements?
mdp.39015028095795	What white man?
mdp.39015028095795	What would three people of our tastes be doing with a Filipino butler? mdp.39015028095795 What you got to play with?"
mdp.39015028095795	What's the matter with her?
mdp.39015028095795	What's the matter, Chris? mdp.39015028095795 What's the matter, Teresa?"
mdp.39015028095795	What's the reason I ca n't?
mdp.39015028095795	Where is she now, Mother?
mdp.39015028095795	Where's Gran? mdp.39015028095795 Who's the real one, Tessie?"
mdp.39015028095795	Why ca n't they pro- nounce your name right?
mdp.39015028095795	Why did n't you introduce me to your mother last night? mdp.39015028095795 Why did n't you tell me this before, Teresa?"
mdp.39015028095795	Why go to this place Teresa's act 181 or that?
mdp.39015028095795	Why not? mdp.39015028095795 Why should he get a mad on me?
mdp.39015028095795	Why should he? mdp.39015028095795 Why should n't she run across me?
mdp.39015028095795	Why should they?
mdp.39015028095795	Why, Phebe, you're only a little bit older than me, are n't you? mdp.39015028095795 Why, yes,"she began, taken off her guard,"I've seen her... is she a young girl, perhaps a year or so older than I?"
mdp.39015028095795	Will I like it? mdp.39015028095795 Will you sit beside me on the sofa awhile, Phebe?"
mdp.39015028095795	Without love?
mdp.39015028095795	Wo n't the neighbors think it strange?
mdp.39015028095795	Would n't you think?
mdp.39015028095795	You ai n't mad, are you?
mdp.39015028095795	You asked what this means? mdp.39015028095795 You certainly are straight about that, are n't you?
mdp.39015028095795	You did n't mind my speaking of your being an Italian, did you? mdp.39015028095795 You do n't think I'm going to run away and leave you to face this, do you?
mdp.39015028095795	You do n't think you've got one- half or two- thirds of your veins filled with one kind of blood, do you, and the other filled with another? mdp.39015028095795 You mean Mrs. Cary, Mother?"
mdp.39015028095795	You remain for a long time then?
mdp.39015028095795	You wo n't say anything about this to your father, will you, Christopher? mdp.39015028095795 You'll give her some hair pomade, wo n't you, Ellen?"
mdp.39015028095795	You're just as likely to put that suit in the very bottom of your trunk and then where would we be that night? mdp.39015028095795 You're leaving?
mdp.39015028095795	... Is he very handsome?"
mdp.39015028095795	122 COMEDY: AMERICAN STYLE"Jarvis,"she asked weakly, she was genuinely frightened,"What's the matter?
mdp.39015028095795	286 AMERICAN STYLE COMEDY:"What was he?
mdp.39015028095795	298 COMEDY: AMERICAN STYLE"Why,"she said in bewilderment,"there's no way, is there, in which I could help you with your medicine?"
mdp.39015028095795	Ai n't that good publicity?
mdp.39015028095795	Ai n't that something?"
mdp.39015028095795	Am I all right?"
mdp.39015028095795	An American or an Italian?"
mdp.39015028095795	And anyway what difference does it make?
mdp.39015028095795	And if he did, what about it?"
mdp.39015028095795	And if that is why you're so anxious to remain with them do you mean to tell me you're willing all your life to sail under false pretenses?
mdp.39015028095795	And in any event what difference did it make?
mdp.39015028095795	And it'll keep you home too, wo n't it, Sis?
mdp.39015028095795	And that you can let one part of it govern you and the rest not affect you at all?
mdp.39015028095795	And then anyway something we have nothing to do with set- tles things for you, do n't you think?
mdp.39015028095795	And then what would your father say?
mdp.39015028095795	And you've seen him perhaps six times?"
mdp.39015028095795	Ask your Ma, kin I come over?"
mdp.39015028095795	BLANCHARD CARY"Do n't it look great?
mdp.39015028095795	But Nick unconsciously( was he really so unconscious of his own power?)
mdp.39015028095795	But after all what was the use?
mdp.39015028095795	But after all, is n't it what we've been thinking about all these years?"
mdp.39015028095795	But how could I?
mdp.39015028095795	But now I'm here, may I stay awhile?"
mdp.39015028095795	But then what was wrong in being colored?
mdp.39015028095795	But unless we run across some real bargains, why buy anything until the fall?
mdp.39015028095795	But what became of Sally, Dad?
mdp.39015028095795	But what is this in- terest in someone else whom he has never noticed before?"
mdp.39015028095795	But, Phebe, why, why?"
mdp.39015028095795	By the way, are you just come?
mdp.39015028095795	Christopher, promise me, you wo n't tell your father?"
mdp.39015028095795	Dad, ca n't I stay right here and go off to college somewhere else, later on?"
mdp.39015028095795	Darling, whatever did you do to him?
mdp.39015028095795	David, where is she?"
mdp.39015028095795	Did Marise give you anything to eat?"
mdp.39015028095795	Did anything happen?"
mdp.39015028095795	Did n't go to Carpathia this sum- mer, did she?"
mdp.39015028095795	Did you know Miss Cath- cart gave us fifteen pages of'Le Monde Oil l'On s'Ennuie'?
mdp.39015028095795	Did you say he was a professor?
mdp.39015028095795	Did you shoot your wicked husband, or did you remain his humble slave?"
mdp.39015028095795	Do n't you know enough to come when you're called?"
mdp.39015028095795	Do n't you know that, dumb- bells?"
mdp.39015028095795	Do they know anything at all?"
mdp.39015028095795	Do you ever read it?"
mdp.39015028095795	Do you re- member him?"
mdp.39015028095795	Do you think it's so great to be colored?"
mdp.39015028095795	Do you think she'll mind our marriage?"
mdp.39015028095795	Do you understand mes Phebe, when I say that any station which you might con- sent to enter could not fail to be honored?"
mdp.39015028095795	Does n't it all sound'far away and long ago'now?
mdp.39015028095795	From the doorway she asked him:"How long can you stay, Chris?"
mdp.39015028095795	Getting along, do n't you think so, sonny?"
mdp.39015028095795	Good heavens, Olivia, you would n't want to marry one of these rats, would you?
mdp.39015028095795	Had he ever been truly ardent?
mdp.39015028095795	Had it after all been feigned, his sister wondered?
mdp.39015028095795	Have n't you seen people whisper- ing, and staring when we've got into street- cars?
mdp.39015028095795	He is n't married to anybody else?"
mdp.39015028095795	He whispered even lower:"Will you come in my room and bid me good- night?"
mdp.39015028095795	How about my missing you when you go off?
mdp.39015028095795	How are you?"
mdp.39015028095795	How can Phebe's father not be married to her mother, Mamma?"
mdp.39015028095795	How can you be so dumb?
mdp.39015028095795	How could the most ordinary feat of ratiocination refuse to acknowledge the possibility of a type like Phebe as a result of this admix- ture?
mdp.39015028095795	How could they lead the merry, careless life that was theirs with this hateful disgrace always upon them?
mdp.39015028095795	How could they — how could they have made her colored?
mdp.39015028095795	How could you be when you've already been so friendly with the daughter?"
mdp.39015028095795	How did you come to meet him at Judge Barrett's?"
mdp.39015028095795	How do you like that?"
mdp.39015028095795	How have you been existing?"
mdp.39015028095795	How long do you plan to stay?"
mdp.39015028095795	How would you like to send her and your baby son on a little trip to England?"
mdp.39015028095795	How'll I get them to you?"
mdp.39015028095795	How's that for foresight?
mdp.39015028095795	Hurriedly she changed the sub- ject:"Did the children act any different to Phebe after that?"
mdp.39015028095795	I always ask myself:'Can she give me Paris, its charm, its freedom?'
mdp.39015028095795	I do n't like that You'll let me bring you out here again, Phebe?"
mdp.39015028095795	I remember Miss Cummings in Sunday School, you had her too, do you remember?
mdp.39015028095795	I suppose you've been thinking about marriage, Phebe?"
mdp.39015028095795	I think you know what it means to me to doit well?"
mdp.39015028095795	I've been wondering,"she added with studied diffidence,"whether it would n't be best for you to go with her?"
mdp.39015028095795	If I learn again, will you let me stay near you?"
mdp.39015028095795	If he had been older he would have known enough to ask her:"What could be of more consequence than a little boy, particularly your own little boy?"
mdp.39015028095795	If you ever love me, will you tell me?"
mdp.39015028095795	Is it fair for me to inquire its cause?"
mdp.39015028095795	Is it such a crime?
mdp.39015028095795	Is n't she, Nick?"
mdp.39015028095795	Is n't that funny, Mamma?
mdp.39015028095795	Is that a fact?
mdp.39015028095795	Just her dress, I wonder?
mdp.39015028095795	Just what are you supposed to be doing anyhow?
mdp.39015028095795	Let's see, what did you tell me?
mdp.39015028095795	Let's see; you met him less than a year ago, did n't you?
mdp.39015028095795	Like it, Phebe?"
mdp.39015028095795	Listen, Olivia, why ca n't Sally put my slippers in the same place?
mdp.39015028095795	Look, did you know your name meant the sun?
mdp.39015028095795	Love me, darling?"
mdp.39015028095795	Marise, lighting a cigarette, and enjoying herself, asked calmly:"Did Chris ask you to say that to me?"
mdp.39015028095795	Mind if I run down to the drug- store a moment?"
mdp.39015028095795	My mother sews for Mrs. Morton Rogers; she sent me this coat, Nicky; did n't you wonder how I could be so grand?
mdp.39015028095795	Not like Granny is to David and Janet — is n't it funny to have an uncle and aunt as young as they are?
mdp.39015028095795	Not only today, but for many days past?
mdp.39015028095795	Now can you guess?"
mdp.39015028095795	Now you really understand about tomorrow?"
mdp.39015028095795	Of course you know, Tessa, the real plutocrat is going to be Marise?"
mdp.39015028095795	Oh, Alicia, is n't it too grand?
mdp.39015028095795	Oh, Ralph, you wo n't mind if I keep a little place in my mind, in my heart, for Lee?
mdp.39015028095795	Oh, is she out?
mdp.39015028095795	Oh, you're not divorced?
mdp.39015028095795	Oliver's act 201 want my friends, my friends, those ladies, to think I was the — the mother of a wild Indian, do you?"
mdp.39015028095795	Once more within his own domain he asked his mother:"Ma, is she a fairy?"
mdp.39015028095795	Or is it THE PLOT 15 just because they are white?
mdp.39015028095795	Phebe, why do n't you just marry some white man and be through with it?"
mdp.39015028095795	Pretty nice?"
mdp.39015028095795	Remember that professor in that medical college in South Philadelphia who held back Julia Anstey three years ago?
mdp.39015028095795	She certainly expects you to see some boys, does n't she?
mdp.39015028095795	She could n't have suspected anything about us just from meet- ing me, could she?
mdp.39015028095795	She could only echo stupidly:"Color?"
mdp.39015028095795	She said to him evenly:"What's it really all about, Nicky?"
mdp.39015028095795	She said, savoring the delicious intimacy of the moment:"Do n't you think you're being a little bit too finicky, Nick?
mdp.39015028095795	She's white, ai n't she?"
mdp.39015028095795	So she only said with no slightest trace of the triumphant winner in her tone:"Mother, do the people at the mill know you're colored?"
mdp.39015028095795	THE CHARACTERS 51"Say, Mis'Grant, kin she come over to my house?
mdp.39015028095795	Teach?"
mdp.39015028095795	Tell me where you live and if you are comfortable?
mdp.39015028095795	Teresa's act 115 Henry?
mdp.39015028095795	Teresa, you've been deceiving your father and me all this time?"
mdp.39015028095795	That girl probably does n't mind being colored, because, oh, because — how can I make you see?
mdp.39015028095795	The Kohinoor?"
mdp.39015028095795	Tomorrow?"
mdp.39015028095795	Was her heart not already singing with his former spontaneous praise?
mdp.39015028095795	Was n't she different tonight?
mdp.39015028095795	Was she to spend it thus forever with her vapid, unimagina- tive man, her scolding mother- in- law, her petty household duties?
mdp.39015028095795	Was this all it was to bring to her, life in this little southern town, bearable only with an ig- norant peasant woman?
mdp.39015028095795	We wo n't have to ask:'How high is the baby?'
mdp.39015028095795	Well, for Pete's sake, what's all this?"
mdp.39015028095795	Well, how can I go on?
mdp.39015028095795	Well, what's the matter with me?"
mdp.39015028095795	What about Marise?
mdp.39015028095795	What about giving it?
mdp.39015028095795	What about this dark man?"
mdp.39015028095795	What are you going to do with it all?"
mdp.39015028095795	What are you going to do, go on the stage some day?"
mdp.39015028095795	What did you decide to do?
mdp.39015028095795	What did you do, Ralph?
mdp.39015028095795	What do you say, Chris?"
mdp.39015028095795	What do you want to do?"
mdp.39015028095795	What does this mean?"
mdp.39015028095795	What happened then?"
mdp.39015028095795	What makes her colored and makes those white girls white?"
mdp.39015028095795	What mattered it if he did not talk of mar- riage as yet, provided only this could last throughout the years?
mdp.39015028095795	What say you get Father to let you go abroad this summer to one of those tricky little summer schools in France?
mdp.39015028095795	What was Henry Bates doing around the grand white folks?"
mdp.39015028095795	What was it?
mdp.39015028095795	What was the catch here?
mdp.39015028095795	What was the matter with Nick?
mdp.39015028095795	What will your husband do?"
mdp.39015028095795	What would I be do- ing fooling around some girls'school, waiting for my daughter to recite her lessons and then go off on a tour of sight- seeing?
mdp.39015028095795	What would their litde world think if, now, any coolness rose between them?
mdp.39015028095795	What's closing in on you?"
mdp.39015028095795	What's come over you?"
mdp.39015028095795	What's he got to do with it?"
mdp.39015028095795	What's he like?"
mdp.39015028095795	What... if it were n't for Oliver?
mdp.39015028095795	Whatever do you suppose made her come?"
mdp.39015028095795	When can she be seen?"
mdp.39015028095795	When shall I look for you?
mdp.39015028095795	Where did you live during those years before you came here?
mdp.39015028095795	Where would she ever run across you?"
mdp.39015028095795	Where would you meet anybody in my world?
mdp.39015028095795	Where's Janet?
mdp.39015028095795	Where's Janet?"
mdp.39015028095795	Where's it to go?"
mdp.39015028095795	White men leering at you and looking daggers at me?
mdp.39015028095795	White women curling their lips at both of us?
mdp.39015028095795	Who is he, anyhow?
mdp.39015028095795	Whoever said Boston is cool in summer?"
mdp.39015028095795	Why ca n't they see this thing the way I want it?"
mdp.39015028095795	Why not get away from it?
mdp.39015028095795	Why not take advantage of what already lay to her hand?
mdp.39015028095795	Why should he do that?"
mdp.39015028095795	Why should he himself, even, secure in his knowledge, object so to these stares and whispered comments?
mdp.39015028095795	Why should he mind my helping Mother?"
mdp.39015028095795	Why should it take any courage to acknowledge you are what you are?
mdp.39015028095795	Why should n't I be calling on you?
mdp.39015028095795	Why should they expect the product of this combination to run to a fixed, immediately recognizable type?
mdp.39015028095795	Why should they have been interrupted by a little boy?"
mdp.39015028095795	Why would your father need to waste money on him?
mdp.39015028095795	Why, Olivia, what are you talking about?
mdp.39015028095795	Why, what for?"
mdp.39015028095795	Why?"
mdp.39015028095795	Why?"
mdp.39015028095795	Will you come with me?
mdp.39015028095795	Will you tell me what this means?"
mdp.39015028095795	With a background such as this, to what heights might not their children attain?
mdp.39015028095795	Wonder what he's got against me, Pete?"
mdp.39015028095795	Would all the kings'horses and all the kings'men keep you from going to camp this summer even though it might save me gallons of bitter tears?"
mdp.39015028095795	Would n't it be rather wonderful, she thought to herself, to earn her living in this pleasant way?
mdp.39015028095795	Would you like me to wait up?"
mdp.39015028095795	Would you like to watch me get things together?"
mdp.39015028095795	Yet whom could her deception really harm?
mdp.39015028095795	You did n't mind, did you?"
mdp.39015028095795	You do n't suppose the kind of colored girl who would be coming to a school like this would still be in the Topsy state, do you?
mdp.39015028095795	You know how nasty those theaters are down there?
mdp.39015028095795	You know how she's always been about Oliver?
mdp.39015028095795	You wo n't ever let anything or anyone come between us?"
mdp.39015028095795	You would n't beat me up, would you, Baby?"
mdp.39015028095795	You'd get a chance to try a different step then, would n't you?"
mdp.39015028095795	You'd understand more about me, would n't you?
mdp.39015028095795	You'll like that, Honey?"
mdp.39015028095795	You're going to be my wife, are n't you?
mdp.39015028095795	You're sure you do n't mind?"
mdp.39015028095795	You're to go to his Commencement?"
mdp.39015028095795	Zall right if I bring this brute Talliver along?
mdp.39015028095795	ai n't he too pitiful?
mdp.39015028095795	but good God, do n't you ever read the papers?
mdp.39015028095795	but was she, could she pos- sibly be the same girl?
mdp.39015028095795	did n't it?
mdp.39015028095795	he said, kissing her fondly,"how's my contemporary niece?"
mdp.39015028095795	how did you say that?
mdp.39015028095795	might I have had a better chance?"
mdp.39015028095795	more catholic so to speak, could I?
mdp.39015028095795	said the Georgian,"that Nigras would come to know their place and keep it?
mdp.39015028095795	what was it she had said to this young Nash?
mdp.39015028095795	where was I?
mdp.39015028095795	with Marise?
mdp.39015028095795	• What was it you wanted to see me about?"
mdp.39015028095795	• • • • • Many weeks later he asked her:"What about your daugh- ter?
uc1.b3687493	A li'l game, eh? uc1.b3687493 Ai n't you people got no sense? ” whined Pierre.
uc1.b3687493	At what end of the field did the cutting start? ” he asked. uc1.b3687493 But what can we do now?"
uc1.b3687493	But your Honor,asked Adams, “ what's wrong with the word ‘ African'? ”"Nothing's wrong with the word'African,'your Honor,"said Touchard.
uc1.b3687493	Calls himself Jimmy Dixon. ”Tall nigger?
uc1.b3687493	Continue. ” “ What boys did Mister Jerry want Mister Joe to call? ”Do n't answer that question! ” cried Adams.
uc1.b3687493	Could you have been hiding somewhere waiting for the de- fendant to pass- in a clump of weeds, for instance?' uc1.b3687493 Credit? ” said Jimmy, frowning.
uc1.b3687493	Did n't he work on your plantation? ” “ Yes. ” “ Jimmy worked on Saint Agnes for a full month. uc1.b3687493 Did you hire other niggers that day?"
uc1.b3687493	Do n't you know your name?
uc1.b3687493	Folks, I've something to say to the sheriff. ” “ What is it, Tony? ” The sheriff lifted a miserable face. uc1.b3687493 Got anything for these pups to smell? ” The trainer held a handkerchief to the dogs'noses.
uc1.b3687493	Hi, and whar yuh gwine?
uc1.b3687493	How many niggers ganged you?.
uc1.b3687493	How many of you guys know your A B C's? ” Faces brightened, but nobody answered. uc1.b3687493 How much? ” The clerk passed a hand over his graying moustache.
uc1.b3687493	How yuh doin', pod? ” “ All right. ” Jimmy squirmed to minimize the hay pricks. uc1.b3687493 How'bout it, Perfessor?
uc1.b3687493	Is yuh sho it was n't yo'oman what done piss on yuh?
uc1.b3687493	Listen, honey, I came to tell you —"Tell me what, Tante Hannah? ” “ I came to tell you, the man in the cane“ Yes?"
uc1.b3687493	Listen, honey, I came to tell you —"Tell me what, Tante Hannah? ” “ I came to tell you, the man in the cane“ Yes?"
uc1.b3687493	Really, do n't you? ” Touchard's smile became a mask of sar- casm. uc1.b3687493 Seventeen?
uc1.b3687493	Ten years, suh. ” “ Do you know the defendant, Jimmy Dixon? ” “ Yas, suh.
uc1.b3687493	The parish clerk? ”That's what I said, Jimmy! ” Aunt Hannah got between Jimmy and Antonia and took their arms.
uc1.b3687493	They the law, too? ” The crowd shuffled closer. uc1.b3687493 Up there, suh? ” “ Yes, up here!"
uc1.b3687493	What 17 difference it makes how much? ” He reached for the account book. uc1.b3687493 What are you talking about? ” “ Jimmy, yuh got ta git- tonight!
uc1.b3687493	What did you mean when you said Jimmy Dixon did n't talk right?
uc1.b3687493	What does it mean? ” asked Daniel. uc1.b3687493 What lane, Jerry? ” Jerry stepped into the open.
uc1.b3687493	What the hell is stinkin'so?
uc1.b3687493	What you doing out this late at night?
uc1.b3687493	What you want, boy? ”A broom, sir."
uc1.b3687493	What you want? ” “ Hell. uc1.b3687493 What's the big idea? ” he demanded.
uc1.b3687493	When you went to Jimmy's cabin that Sunday night, you did so to make plans against the white people on Saint Agnes, did n't you?
uc1.b3687493	Where and when did you see the defendant the night he slipped from the cane? ” “ Do n't answer that question,said Touchard.
uc1.b3687493	Where'd you learn to read and write? ” Jerry began. uc1.b3687493 Where's the boss? ” asked Jimmy.
uc1.b3687493	Who is it? ” “ Teboy.
uc1.b3687493	Who were they? ” “ I do n't remember.
uc1.b3687493	Why did you hesitate? uc1.b3687493 Why did you run away from Saint Agnes?"
uc1.b3687493	Why do n't you put one o'them heavy buckets down, son?
uc1.b3687493	Would he have advised a white defendant to plead guilty because his word had no standing in court against that of a black man? uc1.b3687493 Would the district attorney have made the same suggestion to a white defendant? ” He spoke sharply now.
uc1.b3687493	Yes, sir. ”How wide and deep was Mr. George's wound? ”"About a half inch wide and skin- deep."
uc1.b3687493	You get a pension? ”Pension?
uc1.b3687493	You get a pension? ”Pension?
uc1.b3687493	You hear Pierre go by?
uc1.b3687493	You mean now, suh? ” The clerk began looking purple. uc1.b3687493 You mean, Mist'Jerry? ” “ Mister Jerry. ”"Well, ah guess ah's got ta keep on tellin'the trufe. ” “ The whole truth."
uc1.b3687493	You means to tell me that Needham an'Henry was nigger soldiers an'them Germanses was white folkses? ” asked Booker. uc1.b3687493 118 “ What did Mr. George tell you when he was revived? ” “'The nigger hit me with a piece of iron!' uc1.b3687493 15Sorry, eh? ” Tillman folded his arms, resting his elbows on the arms of the chair.
uc1.b3687493	A jack rabbit?
uc1.b3687493	Abruptly, he said, “ What time is them mens gwine to git Jimmy tonight? ”"Ah hears them say at nine o'clock."
uc1.b3687493	Abruptly, he snapped, “ What's your name?"
uc1.b3687493	After much fidgeting Gordon shouted, “ How did you get hold of that book?"
uc1.b3687493	After they'd started to eat, she asked,"Well, Tony, what do you think of the case so far? ”.
uc1.b3687493	Ah comes to git yuh fuh the boys at the hangout. ” “ What's up?"
uc1.b3687493	An'yuh?"
uc1.b3687493	Are you callin'them liars?
uc1.b3687493	As the cell door slammed behind him, Touchard asked,"Are you Jimmy Dixon? ” “ Yes, sir. ” “ I'm Armidé Touchard, your attorney."
uc1.b3687493	At the door, the older clerk asked him, “ Did you get your money, boy?"
uc1.b3687493	But what else could he have done?
uc1.b3687493	But what you bums doing with them lanterns lit?
uc1.b3687493	But what's got me is what stopped the third dog? ” Tillman lit his pipe.
uc1.b3687493	But why'n hell yuh's always tellin''em somethin'?
uc1.b3687493	Call a doctor — it's Daniell""Where?"
uc1.b3687493	Can he read and write? ” “ That's him!
uc1.b3687493	Can it do that?
uc1.b3687493	Can the defense produce the bullets from the car- 128 casses of those dogs?
uc1.b3687493	Did it seem to have been made by the trigger of a pistol? ”"I could n't say.
uc1.b3687493	Did n't you object to Jimmy Dixon because his diction denoted a degree of intelligence not found in ordinary field hands?"
uc1.b3687493	Did n't you? ” “ No, mister, ah did n't run away an'ah did n't steal no book an'no nothin'."
uc1.b3687493	Did they know it was Jimmy they were trying to cut out?
uc1.b3687493	Do n't you know better than to stand before a white man with your hat on?"
uc1.b3687493	Do n't you see you're being drubbed along with me?".
uc1.b3687493	Do n't you wear clothes?
uc1.b3687493	Do those terms apply to niggers?
uc1.b3687493	Do you remember how our ancestry was kicked out of Acadia a hundred and fifty years ago?
uc1.b3687493	Do you think you're talking to a nigger?"
uc1.b3687493	Does it carry more weight when the citizen's face is white?
uc1.b3687493	Does the word of an American citizen carry less weight in court when his face is black?
uc1.b3687493	Finally, he knocked “ Who that? ” the foreman called out.
uc1.b3687493	Finally, he said, “ Wo n't you give me a chance, sir?
uc1.b3687493	Ganged me? ” Daniel frowned.
uc1.b3687493	Gordon, do you know the defendant? ” “ Casually."
uc1.b3687493	He had n't told her because — well, what does a man do on his wedding night?
uc1.b3687493	He had thrown up, had n't he?
uc1.b3687493	He was going to buy me a bed — ” “ When does a nigger need a bed? ” somebody yelled from the overseers'section.
uc1.b3687493	He's the man in the cane! ” “ What you sayin', gal?
uc1.b3687493	How come us ought to like it? ” “ Yeah, how come? ” asked Charley.
uc1.b3687493	How come us ought to like it? ” “ Yeah, how come? ” asked Charley.
uc1.b3687493	How come, Pierre? ”"An'look, Miss Emma, Pierre got a Georgia man out there! ” said a colored woman.
uc1.b3687493	How do you live? ” Jimmy stepped closer.
uc1.b3687493	How else could he have obtained the revolver if he did not do so when Daniel George attacked him?
uc1.b3687493	How far down you going? ” “ I'ontown.
uc1.b3687493	How in hell had he gotten into this mess?
uc1.b3687493	How many niggers are there who actually get married?
uc1.b3687493	How much meat you want- two bits, four bits or what? ” “ That depends on the amount I get. ”"What you worryin''bout?
uc1.b3687493	How much meat you want- two bits, four bits or what? ” “ That depends on the amount I get. ”"What you worryin''bout?
uc1.b3687493	How much? ” he asked.
uc1.b3687493	How's bidness? ”"Pigbelly, you old scamp!
uc1.b3687493	I ca n't. ”"Why do n't you go to Southern University? ” “ Calling that school a university do n't make it one."
uc1.b3687493	I have n't bought anything here yet. ” “ You working here, ai n't you?"
uc1.b3687493	I'm looking for Henry. ”"Henry?
uc1.b3687493	I've got a job. ” “ A job?"
uc1.b3687493	If he died, how would Antonia ever understand?
uc1.b3687493	Is he in this courtroom?"
uc1.b3687493	Is it true the man in the cane is Jimmy Dixon?"
uc1.b3687493	Is n't that so? ”"I paid him, I told you."
uc1.b3687493	Leave them alone?
uc1.b3687493	Now he asks the question,'How else could he have obtained the revolver?'
uc1.b3687493	Now, how could you i 142 have seen the defendant walking and stopping so many times, even trotting, in such a short distance?"
uc1.b3687493	Now, when you found Daniel George in the cart lane did he have a revolver on him?"
uc1.b3687493	Or do you?"
uc1.b3687493	Or yes?
uc1.b3687493	Pierre said, “ By God, what's wrong with'em? ” “ Maybe they need to open their noses with Vick's salve,"offered a spectator.
uc1.b3687493	Put them lights out, you guys! ” “ Who's the nigger we're after? ” asked Pierre, bringing his horse closer.
uc1.b3687493	Remember? ”"I knew you'd be by again, Jimmy. ” He stepped close and picked up her hands.
uc1.b3687493	Said Butler, “ We all knows somethin''bout the time us puts in an'how much we gits a day, but how'bout them deducts?"
uc1.b3687493	See the mark?"
uc1.b3687493	Should he continue by the old levee?
uc1.b3687493	Should he switch to the new?
uc1.b3687493	Talk about the future?
uc1.b3687493	That's why he's in this awful mess. ”"Why do you love Jimmy Dixon, Miss Dugas?"
uc1.b3687493	The boy is their son. ” “ Pierre's daughter?
uc1.b3687493	The boys laughed, Teboy lit the lantern and called out, “ Whar yuh gwine, Jimmy? ” Jimmy turned back.
uc1.b3687493	The rest is waitin'trial. ” “ How long they got to wait?".
uc1.b3687493	Then where'd I be?
uc1.b3687493	Tillman, ” began Touchard, “ just what are your require- ments for a field worker? ”.
uc1.b3687493	To cut cane?
uc1.b3687493	To get into bed with another nigger the minute they're through with the last one?
uc1.b3687493	Want to be good targets? ”"Hell, ” said Tillman, “ I never thought of that.
uc1.b3687493	Wanting to learn how to read and write — for what?
uc1.b3687493	Was he out after a colored man?
uc1.b3687493	Was n't Monty going to tell that nigger where to get off?
uc1.b3687493	Was n't he a strong- enough- looking buck for your plantation? ”.
uc1.b3687493	We've both been to France, have n't we?"
uc1.b3687493	We've got to draw a panel- no?
uc1.b3687493	Were the overseers coming after him?
uc1.b3687493	Were you suspicious of them, too? ”.
uc1.b3687493	What about Jimmy's protection?"
uc1.b3687493	What could I do in that time, especially with the boss already against me?"
uc1.b3687493	What could he do now to save Jimmy?
uc1.b3687493	What could he undo?
uc1.b3687493	What did he put in it? ”"He put in a sammich, some clothes an'a cane knife. ”"Your witness, Mr.
uc1.b3687493	What do you mean you paid cash at this store?
uc1.b3687493	What else? ” Jimmy bought a lot of other food items, pricing each one as he went along.
uc1.b3687493	What was that noise?
uc1.b3687493	What was that ringing sound?
uc1.b3687493	What you on the lookout for? ” The sentry drooped his head, stalling.
uc1.b3687493	What yuh waitin'fuh?"
uc1.b3687493	What'll I do?"
uc1.b3687493	What's his name got to do with it? ”"Lots.
uc1.b3687493	What's this here thing here? ” “ Oh, that, sir?
uc1.b3687493	What's this here thing here? ” “ Oh, that, sir?
uc1.b3687493	What's wrong- are you sick? ” The pencil fell from Pete's hand.
uc1.b3687493	Where is Jimmy?"
uc1.b3687493	Where was Pierre going in such haste?
uc1.b3687493	Where were they?
uc1.b3687493	Where you from? ”.
uc1.b3687493	Where's Jimmy? ” Jimmy came out fast from his hiding place behind the bed.
uc1.b3687493	Why did n't you tell us? ” cried another woman.
uc1.b3687493	Why did you refuse to pay him his full wages? ”.
uc1.b3687493	Why do n't you like it? ” Charley chewed thoughtfully.
uc1.b3687493	Why do n't you remember? ” “ Because I can not recall the spot in which he was standing when I saw him."
uc1.b3687493	Why do they want to kill you? ”"Shh, honey, ” he whispered.
uc1.b3687493	Why had n't he told her?
uc1.b3687493	Why run credit elsewhere?"
uc1.b3687493	Why? ”.
uc1.b3687493	Wo n't you come in? ” The Cajun truck farmer stepped inside.
uc1.b3687493	Would Mist'Jerry an'them stan'fuh it?"
uc1.b3687493	Would you try to get him? ”.
uc1.b3687493	You hiring anyone?"
uc1.b3687493	You would n't want to hurt their feelings, would you? ” Jimmy gazed at Antonia, then back at Aunt Hannah.
uc1.b3687493	Yuh from the city, eh? ”"Nope, River Bend."
uc1.b3687493	Yuh givin'them money too? ”.
uc1.b3687493	Yuh kin learn us right here on the batture, ca n't yuh?"
uc1.b3687493	he said. ” “ What nigger was Mr. George talking about?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Ah did n't run away, suh, ah jes'lef?."
uc1.b3687493	“ Ai n't you got no respect for the law? ”.
uc1.b3687493	“ Ai n't you guys white men?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Ai n't yuh comin', Zed? ” asked Teboy.
uc1.b3687493	“ An'the'Merican white mens done let them nigger soldiers hunt down white folkses in France like white mens hunts down niggers in this here state?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Are you a member of the Ku Klux Klan?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Are you lawyers ready for argu- ment? ”"Not yet, ” said Touchard.
uc1.b3687493	“ Ca n't yuh niggers be serious sometimes?".
uc1.b3687493	“ Cash, you say?
uc1.b3687493	“ Come on, Pete, what follows C? ” Jimmy saw that Pete had i 44 stiffened.
uc1.b3687493	“ Damn, he's just another nigger, ai n't he?
uc1.b3687493	“ Daniel, Daniel, who hit you? ” The Georgian mumbled through his teeth.
uc1.b3687493	“ Did Mister Jerry say what he wanted with me?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Did n't you know he toted a pistol? ”"No!"
uc1.b3687493	“ Did she behave while I was gone, Jimmy? ” she asked, smiling.
uc1.b3687493	“ Did the defendant resist arrest? ”"He did. ” “ Your witness, Mr.
uc1.b3687493	“ Did you dress the wound of Daniel George the last Sunday night in September? ” asked Adams.
uc1.b3687493	“ Did you hear what he said, Pierre?
uc1.b3687493	“ Did you say your name was Finnigan? ” asked the white man of the applicant just ahead of Jimmy.
uc1.b3687493	“ Do n't you eat, boy?
uc1.b3687493	“ Do n't you planters out there see what's happening here?
uc1.b3687493	“ Do you attorneys realize that time's Aying and we do n't even have one juryman as yet?
uc1.b3687493	“ Do you recognize this book, Mr. Gordon? ” “ Never saw it before."
uc1.b3687493	“ Do you recognize those names, Mr. Gordon? ” asked Touchard.
uc1.b3687493	“ Everybody there knows what happened, but would anybody tell the truth? ” He thought for a moment.
uc1.b3687493	“ Father Jones is outside — and the parish clerk is in his office. ” “ Father Jones? ” said Jimmy, turning to stare at Antonia.
uc1.b3687493	“ Had any trouble getting him?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Here, do n't you want this money?"
uc1.b3687493	“ How can we thank you for all you have done for us? ”"Pooh, pooh, ” said Aunt Hannah, beaming.
uc1.b3687493	“ How could I forget? ” Gordon bit his lips.
uc1.b3687493	“ How could it be?
uc1.b3687493	“ How long have you lived on Saint Agnes? ” asked Touchard.
uc1.b3687493	“ How many birds this cage holds? ” he asked.
uc1.b3687493	“ How many of my niggers jumped you?"
uc1.b3687493	“ How many times do I have to repeat that I'm the law here? ” “ That's why we're asking you to do something you're the law!"
uc1.b3687493	“ How many, Sheriff? ”"Seventeen."
uc1.b3687493	“ How much is your saltmeat? ” asked Jimmy.
uc1.b3687493	“ How much? ” “ Four bits. ” Jimmy took the change and went his way.
uc1.b3687493	“ How old are you? ”"Twenty- two."
uc1.b3687493	“ How old is you, boy? ” “ Nineteen, Unc'Bill. ” LaBat resumed his cutting.
uc1.b3687493	“ Huh? ” She woke up beautifully, her eyes wide and young, her lips open a little, beckoning.
uc1.b3687493	“ I did. ” “ Did you hire Jimmy Dixon as readily as you did the others?"
uc1.b3687493	“ I said what's going on here? ” Jimmy stepped back a little.
uc1.b3687493	“ I should have known you would n't work. ”"Who packed your hay in the loft?"
uc1.b3687493	“ I told you what we have on trial. ”"Not a man?"
uc1.b3687493	“ I'll put the question this way: Is the African boy who attacked you on Saint Agnes that Sunday night in this room?"
uc1.b3687493	“ I'm sure it would. ” “ All right, what you want?"
uc1.b3687493	“ In other words, stay in my place, eh? ” “ Only because you have to, Jimmy."
uc1.b3687493	“ Is it clean? ”.
uc1.b3687493	“ Is it true, Pierre? ” Still ignoring the white man, Pierre rode alongside the sheriff.
uc1.b3687493	“ Jake got the answer all right, but would it work?
uc1.b3687493	“ Lock who up?
uc1.b3687493	“ Lookin'fuh work, boy? ” asked a harness tailor.
uc1.b3687493	“ Lucky, how?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Miss Dugas, ” said Touchard,"would you please tell the court why Jimmy Dixon went to Saint Agnes in the first place?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Niggers?
uc1.b3687493	“ Now it's you, eh? ” he ground out.
uc1.b3687493	“ Sho o'what? ” “ Damn it to hell, you bastards, ” Teboy yelled, “ I'm tellin'yuh to git ser’ous!
uc1.b3687493	“ So what?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Stranger in these parts, ai n't you? ”"Sort of. ” The clerk handed Jimmy two brooms which he'd pulled down from the ceiling rack.
uc1.b3687493	“ Suppose the jury is n't listening to Mr. Touchard? ” worried Antonia.
uc1.b3687493	“ Suppose they convict Jimmy? ” She stopped eating.
uc1.b3687493	“ Tante Hannah, what you said to this gal?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Teaching?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Tha's all that white man calls yuh- jis nigger? ” asked Pigbelly.
uc1.b3687493	“ That one. ” “ Who them other fellows?"
uc1.b3687493	“ The boys done ax Jimmy to learn'em figgers an'words. ”"Did Jimmy say he would? ” Sammy nodded.
uc1.b3687493	“ The one who knocked you speech- less, Mr. George, is he in this room?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Them's Pierre's folks. ”"The mulatto gal, too? ”"She ai n't no mulatto.
uc1.b3687493	“ Then the defendant tried to kill you without provocation?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Was n't that enough? ”"Ah sees yuh ai n't worked on no plantation b'foh.
uc1.b3687493	“ We do n't then have a man on trial?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Whar's yuh gwine? ” he asked.
uc1.b3687493	“ What about it, Ben?
uc1.b3687493	“ What did Jimmy say to the boys on the batture that night?"
uc1.b3687493	“ What did Mr. Gordon say to you when you reported to him that Jimmy had promised to teach the workers on Saint Agnes to read and write?"
uc1.b3687493	“ What difference is it if us kids work or not?
uc1.b3687493	“ What do you mean, sir?"
uc1.b3687493	“ What else did this Jimmy say to you boys? ” Sammy twisted his neck, gulping.
uc1.b3687493	“ What else?
uc1.b3687493	“ What follows C? ” Pete stood uneasily, eyes focused on the willows around him.
uc1.b3687493	“ What office do you hold in that mob — I mean organization?"
uc1.b3687493	“ What particular spot? ”.
uc1.b3687493	“ What witnesses can we get from Saint Agnes?"
uc1.b3687493	“ What you doin'here, anyway?"
uc1.b3687493	“ What you got against Jimmy, Pierre? ” asked a Cajun.
uc1.b3687493	“ What you got there, boy? ” “ Working clothes and such, sir."
uc1.b3687493	“ What you niggers doing here? ” asked Tillman harshly.
uc1.b3687493	“ What yuh got, Jake? ” He pointed at Jimmy.
uc1.b3687493	“ What yuh gwine to do to me, Teboy? ”"Nothin'.
uc1.b3687493	“ What yuh mean?"
uc1.b3687493	“ What's going on here? ” he demanded.
uc1.b3687493	“ What's that smell? ” he mumbled 146 and went on to the jury box, saying, “ Must be the district attorney's argument."
uc1.b3687493	“ What's up, Pierre? ” “ To the oak, Marcus!
uc1.b3687493	“ What's wrong? ”"A nigger — he split open a white man's skull!
uc1.b3687493	“ What's wrong? ”"Ai n't nothin'wrong.
uc1.b3687493	“ What's wrong?"
uc1.b3687493	“ What's wrong?"
uc1.b3687493	“ What's wrong?"
uc1.b3687493	“ What's your name? ”"My name?
uc1.b3687493	“ What's your name? ”"My name?
uc1.b3687493	“ What's your name?"
uc1.b3687493	“ What?
uc1.b3687493	“ When she puts knots on me, it ai n't with what she pisses with! ” “ Yuh sho o'that? ” called out Butler.
uc1.b3687493	“ Where are they?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Where have you seen this pistol before, Mr. Gordon? ”"I've never seen it before."
uc1.b3687493	“ Where is he, Tante Hannah?
uc1.b3687493	“ Where is he?
uc1.b3687493	“ Where is he?
uc1.b3687493	“ Where'd you work last, boy? ” he asked, not lifting his head.
uc1.b3687493	“ Where's the nigger? ” asked Ben angrily.
uc1.b3687493	“ Which shall it be, search you or club you? ” asked the Cajun.
uc1.b3687493	“ While in your employ did the defendant say anything or do anything to justify your suspicions of him?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Who do you think I am?
uc1.b3687493	“ Who is it?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Why ai n't you folks cuttin'cane? ” he asked, meeting them.
uc1.b3687493	“ Why are they after you, Jimmy?
uc1.b3687493	“ Why did n't we think of that in the first place?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Why do n't you ask the boss? ” he retorted.
uc1.b3687493	“ Why do n't you wake up like a white man? ” Pierre shouted.
uc1.b3687493	“ Why keep fighting about it?
uc1.b3687493	“ Why me? ” At the commissary he found a middle- aged clerk opening up crates.
uc1.b3687493	“ Why should you?
uc1.b3687493	“ Why the back way?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Why the hell do n't you guys gang up on the over- seer? ” he said through set teeth.
uc1.b3687493	“ Why were you suspicious of Jimmy Dixon?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Why're most of the guys in here? ” “ Jumpin'commissary bills, vagrancy and cuttin'other niggers. ” “ Jumpin'commissary bills?
uc1.b3687493	“ Why're most of the guys in here? ” “ Jumpin'commissary bills, vagrancy and cuttin'other niggers. ” “ Jumpin'commissary bills?
uc1.b3687493	“ Why? ” “ That bastard Sammy!
uc1.b3687493	“ Will you two please stop being so childish? ” exclaimed Aunt Hannah, looking exasperated.
uc1.b3687493	“ Would yuh peanut gamblers be satisfied with what me an'Jimmy say do? ” The men agreed.
uc1.b3687493	“ Yep, any chances? ” “ Lots o'chances.
uc1.b3687493	“ Yes. ” “ What did Jimmy strike you with? ” “ The piece of pipe he held in his hand. ” “ Thank you.
uc1.b3687493	“ You can read this book?"
uc1.b3687493	“ You mean it? ” said Jimmy, looking back.
uc1.b3687493	“ You mean the prisoners have to squat over them buckets?"
uc1.b3687493	“ You say the man in the cane ees Jeemmee? ” he asked.
uc1.b3687493	“ You want to get knocked down?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Yuh ai n't done tell the white folks nothin', is yuh?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Yuh gwine work here, podner? ”"Guess so, why?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Yuh gwine work here, podner? ”"Guess so, why?"
uc1.b3687493	“ Yuh know somethin'? ” said Butler.
mdp.39015073495692	And?
mdp.39015073495692	Are they going to get married?
mdp.39015073495692	At Candy's?
mdp.39015073495692	Did you know,Eagle asked when he had finished the soup,"that Keel was a minister? ” The disclosure did not impress Hillary.
mdp.39015073495692	From the school. ” “ What they say?
mdp.39015073495692	He sign with Demetriades? ” Alvin asked. mdp.39015073495692 He talkin'?"
mdp.39015073495692	He taught you how to box?
mdp.39015073495692	Hey, Jimsey, how you feel? mdp.39015073495692 Hey, ” the boy said to Hillary,"was that Rod Tolen?"
mdp.39015073495692	How about dinner, Richie?
mdp.39015073495692	How about it, Eagle?
mdp.39015073495692	How about you? ”I notice it.
mdp.39015073495692	How you feel? ” he asked. mdp.39015073495692 I guess I do n't know. ” “ You've found the hatred then? ” She laughed lightly.
mdp.39015073495692	I used to teach there. ” “ Which? ” Kilroy asked, prepared to talk about any town Hillary named. mdp.39015073495692 I want to kiss you. ”"Where's Prof? ” “ In the kitchen. ”"No."
mdp.39015073495692	Is Eagle all right? ” she asked when she returned. mdp.39015073495692 Is this the ass kind or the mouth kind? ”"What difference does it make?
mdp.39015073495692	Is this the ass kind or the mouth kind? ”What difference does it make?
mdp.39015073495692	Last year. ” “ Kids? ”No."
mdp.39015073495692	Live around here? ” Procopio asked, knowing the an- swer, but using the words as a preface. mdp.39015073495692 My man, how you makin'it?"
mdp.39015073495692	Now?
mdp.39015073495692	Prof? mdp.39015073495692 See that?"
mdp.39015073495692	Shirley got titties like that?
mdp.39015073495692	Strung out? ” “ Pretty far out. ” “ What're you goin'to do?
mdp.39015073495692	Strung out? ” “ Pretty far out. ” “ What're you goin'to do?
mdp.39015073495692	Want me to wait?
mdp.39015073495692	What happened?
mdp.39015073495692	What will you do about your horn? ” Hillary asked, as they stood beneath the statue of Peter Cooper, passing the bottle back and forth. mdp.39015073495692 What'chall doin'? ” Eagle asked.
mdp.39015073495692	What's happenin'? ” Eagle asked, leaning his body for- ward to indicate that he was in a hurry. mdp.39015073495692 What's wrong?"
mdp.39015073495692	What? ” Hillary asked, stunned by this disintegration which remained neatly interred within the form of the body. mdp.39015073495692 What? ” “ Turkey, man.
mdp.39015073495692	What?
mdp.39015073495692	Where do we go from here? ” Keel asked. mdp.39015073495692 Where does it go?"
mdp.39015073495692	Where you boys going? ” one of them asked. mdp.39015073495692 Where'll you go? ” Keel, without looking at him, said, “ Oh, I'll worry about it when the time comes."
mdp.39015073495692	Where's Keel? ” “ Should be back in a minute. mdp.39015073495692 Where's he now? ”"I do n't know,"Keel lied.
mdp.39015073495692	White folk's talk?
mdp.39015073495692	Why do n't we have some coffee?
mdp.39015073495692	Why do n't you go back and give Della a hand? mdp.39015073495692 Why?"
mdp.39015073495692	Yor workin'for Keel? ” Crane asked. mdp.39015073495692 You Prof, are n't you? ” 97 “ Yeah. ”"Sure, you see, I know.
mdp.39015073495692	You been downtown long?
mdp.39015073495692	You cats want to sleep it off until we get back, or split? ” “ We gon na split, ” Kilroy said. mdp.39015073495692 You do n't use anything but whisky, do you? ”"No."
mdp.39015073495692	You got a gig goin'? ” “ Not right off. mdp.39015073495692 You hot? ” “ No.
mdp.39015073495692	You make a living here? ” “ If you mean just getting by, I do. mdp.39015073495692 ( Alice?) mdp.39015073495692 126 “ Feel okay?
mdp.39015073495692	152 “ What makes you think I'll take it now? ” Eagle stuffed the money back in his pocket.
mdp.39015073495692	185 “ Did n't you want to help me?"
mdp.39015073495692	50 “ What's wrong with you all?"
mdp.39015073495692	72"Gone. ” “ Gone, huh?"
mdp.39015073495692	A cop?
mdp.39015073495692	A two- way gig. ” Why, Hillary wondered, does she insist in talking this way to me?
mdp.39015073495692	After all, what can you do in this country town?
mdp.39015073495692	Ai n't she, Brindle? ” “ Better than that, ” Brindle said.
mdp.39015073495692	All tore up, but they could talk, y'dig?
mdp.39015073495692	And so what?
mdp.39015073495692	And what, Hillary continued to think with speeding horror, was he doing here, actually trying to keep up with Eagle?
mdp.39015073495692	Back to the shop and pass through wet and stinking to his room for all to see, Della too?
mdp.39015073495692	Building on the blues, building with such speed and intricacy that we do n't even know it's blues right on?
mdp.39015073495692	But had Keel read his mind?
mdp.39015073495692	But if she did n't give it to him...?
mdp.39015073495692	But once accepted, as it had been for a few years now, what then?
mdp.39015073495692	But suddenly he was with someone( a woman?)
mdp.39015073495692	But then a powerful sense of hopelessness came: what the hell had he and Al in common anyway?
mdp.39015073495692	Can you un- derstand?"
mdp.39015073495692	Car accident. ”"When?"
mdp.39015073495692	Could one of these people have been the killer the musicians discussed, half- believingly?
mdp.39015073495692	Could something be going on which would jeopardize the appointment?
mdp.39015073495692	Crazy? ” “ Crazy."
mdp.39015073495692	Della grinned, moved her coppered head in the illusion of a nod and said, “ Like, why not, man? ” Hillary smiled.
mdp.39015073495692	Devoted. ”"You did n't find her too sick, did you?"
mdp.39015073495692	Did Tolen require a smoke screen too?
mdp.39015073495692	Did he hear from the school again today or something?
mdp.39015073495692	Do you bare your breast for the bullet so that your shirt wo n't scratch the lead as it goes in?
mdp.39015073495692	Do you know them? ” Hillary nodded.
mdp.39015073495692	Do you like it?
mdp.39015073495692	Do you stretch your neck for the guillotine?
mdp.39015073495692	Drafty?
mdp.39015073495692	Eagle chewed his food and when he had swallowed it said, “ You like that Della, do n't you? ” “ Yeah.
mdp.39015073495692	Eagle goofed. ” Keel wondered: Could this woman really be worried about Eagle?
mdp.39015073495692	Eagle wanted to smash her; why was there always a closing that made a circle when there should have been a way out?
mdp.39015073495692	Eagle's place?
mdp.39015073495692	Everybody's so cool now, y'dig?"
mdp.39015073495692	Expiation?
mdp.39015073495692	Feelin'better, eh?
mdp.39015073495692	Gettin'kind of late. ”"I dig that. ” “ Y'do?"
mdp.39015073495692	Go somewhere. ”"Without you? ” She looked at him.
mdp.39015073495692	Guess I was wrong. ”"What's her old man like? ”"He's the kinda cat who'd do just what Candy said.
mdp.39015073495692	Had Keel become suddenly angry with him?
mdp.39015073495692	Had she been—“kind ” to him?
mdp.39015073495692	He asked, “ You a junkie? ”"No."
mdp.39015073495692	He became sick with the thought, steadied himself and asked, “ Can I get you anything?"
mdp.39015073495692	He had Yor- dan out there, counting that bread until he got it straight- ened out, you hear me?"
mdp.39015073495692	He thought: All right, Joseph, you with your sharp- assed coat of many colors, what does it mean?
mdp.39015073495692	He turned to Hillary, “ How you doin'? ”.
mdp.39015073495692	He whispered as though overcome by a great human feat, “ What, baby? ”.
mdp.39015073495692	Hillary paused a moment, and then he knew that in the context the question of his being there could only mean: how long had he been a bum?
mdp.39015073495692	Hillary thought: Why is he trying to frighten me?
mdp.39015073495692	Hillary whispered to Kilroy, “ That cat still trying to get the dope on Lester? ” Kilroy smiled.
mdp.39015073495692	How could she let something like this happen?
mdp.39015073495692	How does that go —? ”.
mdp.39015073495692	How much is he going to lay on you?"
mdp.39015073495692	How much patience had she?
mdp.39015073495692	How was it she could look at him ob- jectively, as a man, and not as a Negro enhanced by three hundred years of mythology?
mdp.39015073495692	How you makin'it?"
mdp.39015073495692	I am in love with her, I believe — he thought-but it is also possible that I hate more than love, and if I hate, how may I love?
mdp.39015073495692	I ca n't get the news I'd like because I'm white, like you, y’dig?
mdp.39015073495692	I do n't think it now. ” “ Shit. ” “ What?"
mdp.39015073495692	I got to make it someway too. ” More briskly he said, “ So he's gone, huh?"
mdp.39015073495692	I think I'm almost happy now. ” “ How can you afford me?"
mdp.39015073495692	I think if you play with'em on the piano they'll come better for you, you know? ” “ How about my chords? ” “ They all right.
mdp.39015073495692	I think if you play with'em on the piano they'll come better for you, you know? ” “ How about my chords? ” “ They all right.
mdp.39015073495692	I'm sorry. ” He glanced behind him; what if Keel came now?
mdp.39015073495692	If you do n't move fast enough I'll have to leave you: do n't you understand that?
mdp.39015073495692	Is n't that terribly like all of us?
mdp.39015073495692	Is n't there anything between us?
mdp.39015073495692	It was bad enough without activating more, so how could he live a life with her?
mdp.39015073495692	Just tell me again. ” “ What do you want, a novel? ” “ Do n't be funny.
mdp.39015073495692	Keel paid the fare and said, “ Thanks, man. ” “ Need any help? ” “ No.
mdp.39015073495692	Keel?
mdp.39015073495692	Kilroy said, “ Is he?
mdp.39015073495692	Let him be. ” “ Keel, ” she said,"why do you keep trying to be kind to him?"
mdp.39015073495692	Man, you're so beat you did n't even notice that we had n't talked salary. ”"I noticed. ” “ You did, huh?"
mdp.39015073495692	Meet you there at eleven- thirty, okay? ” “ Crazy, ” Eagle said.
mdp.39015073495692	Might?
mdp.39015073495692	More to drink?
mdp.39015073495692	Now ai n't that a bitch? ” Eagle climbed heavily to his feet and without another word retrieved his coat and went out.
mdp.39015073495692	Now do you understand?
mdp.39015073495692	Now he nodded his head to his next words: “ Do you dig, frig?
mdp.39015073495692	Now, what's your name?"
mdp.39015073495692	Once the cabby asked,"Is he comin'around? ” “ I think so.
mdp.39015073495692	Or had she?
mdp.39015073495692	Or that?
mdp.39015073495692	Out of his bitterness he asked, “ How you like working for the schvartze? ” 100 “ What are you brooding about? ” Della asked.
mdp.39015073495692	Out of his bitterness he asked, “ How you like working for the schvartze? ” 100 “ What are you brooding about? ” Della asked.
mdp.39015073495692	Penance?
mdp.39015073495692	Procopio asked belligerently, “ Did n't I ask you your name?
mdp.39015073495692	Prof? ”"Hummm?"
mdp.39015073495692	Prof? ”"Hummm?"
mdp.39015073495692	Rod Tolen looked up and graveled, “ Man, how you sound?
mdp.39015073495692	Ruppert is in town. ” “ Goddamn you, Kilroy, do n't put me on. ” “ What the hell is it? ” Keel said.
mdp.39015073495692	Shall I do that? ” “ No, baby.
mdp.39015073495692	Shit. ” So why, Hillary wondered, do you rob him, you and all the rest?
mdp.39015073495692	Sigmund, with your ratty- assed couch, how about you?
mdp.39015073495692	Something bugging you? ” Hillary shook his head and picked up the order for two Cappuccinos with Baclava which Della had filled.
mdp.39015073495692	Still cold? ” 76 “ Naw, ” Hillary said.
mdp.39015073495692	Teacher, are n't you? ” Hillary involuntarily looked at his clothes draped over the back of a chair.
mdp.39015073495692	That man?
mdp.39015073495692	The cats was on a two- day layoff. ” “ What's added? ” Background asked.
mdp.39015073495692	The man and the woman... the man and the woman?
mdp.39015073495692	There had been too, Hillary recalled, a wild little Jewish( why did he always remember that the man was a Jew?)
mdp.39015073495692	They had been built"You know many colored guys before you came down here, Prof? ” Eagle asked on a hunch.
mdp.39015073495692	They had walked a good ten blocks when Keel asked, “ How you feel now?"
mdp.39015073495692	They tell him no? ” “ No, baby.
mdp.39015073495692	This cat got his paper with all his figures on it — y'know, the bread Yordan owes him for three months on the damn road?
mdp.39015073495692	To Della?
mdp.39015073495692	Under his breath he said, “ You sonofabitch. ” “ What? ” The man stopped counting the soft, worn bills.
mdp.39015073495692	Want a taste? ” He stood and poured out a drink.
mdp.39015073495692	Was Crane trying to find out about the evening before?
mdp.39015073495692	Was he going to put him out now, after he'd become somewhat used to human comforts?
mdp.39015073495692	We tryin'to put on a show out here. ” Why, Hillary wondered, did Tolen emulate the speech of Kilroy?
mdp.39015073495692	Went to get some soup for you. ” “ How long I been out?"
mdp.39015073495692	What do I mean"might"?
mdp.39015073495692	What had 37 he done?
mdp.39015073495692	What made this man, Richie Stokes, play the music he did the way he did?
mdp.39015073495692	What the hell was he thinking about?
mdp.39015073495692	What's there to focus?
mdp.39015073495692	What's your name? ” “ Dave Hillary. ”"Hillary, ” Keel mused.
mdp.39015073495692	What, you too proud to work for me?"
mdp.39015073495692	Where are all my Lords in this hour?
mdp.39015073495692	Where were you, man? ”.
mdp.39015073495692	Where, he wondered, could he go?
mdp.39015073495692	Why be an awkward one?
mdp.39015073495692	Why could n't he run?
mdp.39015073495692	Why did n't he leave?
mdp.39015073495692	Why did n't she stop coming?
mdp.39015073495692	Why did n't this man like him?
mdp.39015073495692	Why do I sit here and insist that the clue to my life is the music of some beatup bean- picker named Richie Stokes?
mdp.39015073495692	Why do n't I sit down?
mdp.39015073495692	Why do n't you get a job?"
mdp.39015073495692	Why do n't you hit on him?"
mdp.39015073495692	Why do you hustle?
mdp.39015073495692	Why the hell did they always turn up the sound when Yards played?
mdp.39015073495692	Why?
mdp.39015073495692	Why?
mdp.39015073495692	Why? ”"Nothing.
mdp.39015073495692	Would he leave now since Keel was not going to send him away?
mdp.39015073495692	Would he want to come in?
mdp.39015073495692	Would it suffice, for Della, to show Hillary how she really wanted things?
mdp.39015073495692	Yet now he asked, “ What's the matter? ” “ Darling, why does anything have to be the matter?"
mdp.39015073495692	Yet now he asked, “ What's the matter? ” “ Darling, why does anything have to be the matter?"
mdp.39015073495692	You almost ready?"
mdp.39015073495692	You hated my guts. ” “ Know why?"
mdp.39015073495692	You really go to college, you and that girl?"
mdp.39015073495692	You signed with Demetriades yet?"
mdp.39015073495692	You was dead, nigger, you know that? ” Hillary felt uncomfortable.
mdp.39015073495692	You white. ” “ What's that got to do with it?"
mdp.39015073495692	You're a great cat, baby, you know that? ” Hillary smiled.
mdp.39015073495692	You?
mdp.39015073495692	You? ” Yards nodded.
mdp.39015073495692	passions of lust, vic.?
mdp.39015073495692	that ragged jargon meant to amuse, to relax, to throw one off guard with its simplicity and crudeness?
mdp.39015073495692	“ 50th Street. ” “ 50th Street? ” the cabby asked.
mdp.39015073495692	“ A hundred? ” Hillary asked softly so the person behind him could n't hear.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Agency analysis, huh?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ Ai n't you goin'back? ” Eagle said.
mdp.39015073495692	“ All right. ”'Who's truth is it, yours or someone else's?'
mdp.39015073495692	“ Alvin asked how I liked working for Keel. ” “ Yes? ” she said.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Anybody around at all? ” Alvin asked, cloaking des- peration.
mdp.39015073495692	“ But where? ” he mumbled to himself.
mdp.39015073495692	“ C'm on, will you man? ” Through the little window the light came in gray- blue; morning was no more than an hour away.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Ca n't I stay? ” Toot asked, all playfulness gone.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Ca n't we get in touch with Ruppert? ” he asked.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Candy gone?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ Coffee? ” Keel asked.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Della? ” he said, clearing his throat.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Did you know that? ” “ I figured you could anytime you wanted to. ” “ That's what I thought, too."
mdp.39015073495692	“ Do n't you ever get used to it? ” “ Keel has n't."
mdp.39015073495692	“ Do n't you need it?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ Do something for me, will you, baby? ”"Anything, Eagle. ” “ Gimmee twenty- five dollas."
mdp.39015073495692	“ Does Eagle know? ” Keel asked.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Drop you off? ” Keel asked.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Eagle? ” Eagle opened his eyes and smiled or rather intended to, 49 but what appeared was more like a sneer.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Have I ever taken bread from you? ”"No."
mdp.39015073495692	“ He has n't been sounding good lately, know what I mean?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ Hey, Al, what's happenin', baby? ” Eagle said.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Honey?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ How do you mean?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ How much? ” Hillary asked hoarsely.
mdp.39015073495692	“ How much? ” “ Five. ” There were three singles in his left pocket and a five in the right.
mdp.39015073495692	“ How you feel? ” Crane asked.
mdp.39015073495692	“ How you feel? ” Hillary asked.
mdp.39015073495692	“ How you making it, Prof? ” Hillary jumped.
mdp.39015073495692	“ How's Eagle blowin'? ” Keel asked.
mdp.39015073495692	“ I do n't want it, but I do n't know what else to do. ” “ Can I make that suggestion again? ” Keel looked at her.
mdp.39015073495692	“ I feel good, why?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ I was late, but- ” “ Yeah, baby?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ Keel, how are you?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ Keel, ” Hillary said impatiently, “ and Della? ” Eagle shrugged.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Kilroy tell you what Candy said? ” “ Yep,"Ruppert said.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Know what I'd like to do man, after breakfast?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ Like to go? ” “ Yes, ” Hillary said.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Like to make some bread? ”"What doing? ” Hillary countered.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Like to make some bread? ”"What doing? ” Hillary countered.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Like, how do you mean? ” Her tone was condescending.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Like, man, how do you know?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ Look, take it easy tonight, will you?
mdp.39015073495692	“ Maybe. ” “ What the hell are you? ” Hillary asked wearily.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Monday, Wednesday, or Friday, which shall I take? ” He had re- turned and as Eagle poured the glasses half- full he read the letter again.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Of what? ” he asked.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Oh yeah, Finian's. ” They both remembered: how could they forget?
mdp.39015073495692	“ Oh, yeah? ” “ I do n't mean an ordinary preacher.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Richie Stokes, is n't it?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ So, how does it feel, working for me? ” Hillary looked up with a smile.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Suzy, is she on the way? ” “ Yes. ” Aside Brindle said,"These broads're a couple of gradu- ate students.
mdp.39015073495692	“ That means three beers? ” “ Three beers. ” He looked at Keel and Hillary and ex- plained.
mdp.39015073495692	“ That's natural, I think. ”"Is it?
mdp.39015073495692	“ The point is, why do you want my name?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ There are n't many jobs around that pay. ” “ Why not?
mdp.39015073495692	“ There's lots of news here, but I ca n't get it: you know what I mean? ” His eyes took on a wise look.
mdp.39015073495692	“ They stink, do n't they?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ Think it'll work?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ Those guys are somethin'else, are n't they? ” Keel said, nodding toward the two musi- cians.
mdp.39015073495692	“ To what? ” “ That Eagle does n't sound good these days. ” “ He sounds all right to me, ” Keel insisted again.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Understand?
mdp.39015073495692	“ Want a taste? ” She said it deep in her throat and her smile mocked him.
mdp.39015073495692	“ What brought you around, man? ” Keel asked with a smile.
mdp.39015073495692	“ What did you do to him?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ What do you mean'we,'white man?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ What do you mean? ” “ We talked. ” Keel's lips simulated a tight smile.
mdp.39015073495692	“ What do you mean? ” “ Why are you a nothin'? ” Hillary wanted to protest.
mdp.39015073495692	“ What do you mean? ” “ Why are you a nothin'? ” Hillary wanted to protest.
mdp.39015073495692	“ What do you mean?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ What is it?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ What makes you think I'm worried? ” Della started to speak but changed her mind; she recog- nized the tone of his voice.
mdp.39015073495692	“ What then? ” There had to be a reason why he was here, Hillary thought.
mdp.39015073495692	“ What was he like?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ What you need with bread, Background?
mdp.39015073495692	“ What'd you say?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ What're you goin'to do about them people? ” “ What people?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ What're you goin'to do about them people? ” “ What people?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ What's he say?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ What's the matter? ” “ Put your shoes on. ” Keel was holding Hillary's jacket for him.
mdp.39015073495692	“ What's this for? ”.
mdp.39015073495692	“ What's wrong? ” Al asked.
mdp.39015073495692	“ What's your name?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ What? ” “ Get next to a good guitar man an'you'll learn some cute things about chords and harmony progressions, dig?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ What? ” “ Get next to a good guitar man an'you'll learn some cute things about chords and harmony progressions, dig?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ Whatcha got, Jimsey?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ When you start the tour? ” “ Tomorrow, so I'll see you up there.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Where is he? ” Keel asked.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Where to?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ Where were you?
mdp.39015073495692	“ Where'd you find me?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ Where'd you teach? ” “ Upstate. ” “ You have n't cut out for good? ”"I do n't know."
mdp.39015073495692	“ Where'd you teach? ” “ Upstate. ” “ You have n't cut out for good? ”"I do n't know."
mdp.39015073495692	“ Where's Keel and Della?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ Who called you? ” 40 angel.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Who's there? ”"Keel, Candy.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Who?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ Why are n't you making it, fella?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ Why did n't you call me?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ Why do n't you pray for me, man?".
mdp.39015073495692	“ Why? ” Della asked, startled.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Why? ” It was Hillary's turn to shrug.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Why? ” “ My children.
mdp.39015073495692	“ Why?"
mdp.39015073495692	“ Wino?"

mdp.39015028489303	After all, had n't she been president of the Richmond chapter of the Daughters of the Confederacy?

mdp.39015028489303	Am I going to have to go through this every time one of their trains pulls in?"

mdp.39015028489303	Doris asked,"When do you think you'll be called?"
mdp.39015028489303	Doris took one look at her and said,"What's wrong with you?

mdp.39015028489303	Grandpa would persist,"Well, why did you have to pick, one so black?"
mdp.39015028489303	Have you been called?"
mdp.39015028489303	He leaned over to Joan and whispered, “ Joan, will you please dance with me?"
mdp.39015028489303	He opened the champagne and replaced it in the iced bucket, made a final survey of the table, and inquired,"Anything else?"
mdp.39015028489303	He realized she was about to leave for her meeting, but would she have time for a cocktail with him and his friend?
mdp.39015028489303	He said he already had one, what was he going to do with another?
mdp.39015028489303	He said'How?'
mdp.39015028489303	His first question was,'Is your appetite better and are you sleeping better?'
mdp.39015028489303	How about a show of hands as to what section of the city you pre- fer for the dance?"

mdp.39015028489303	How many other women have you told that?"
mdp.39015028489303	How we taught each other the latest dance steps?"

mdp.39015028489303	Is it that I'm too cold?
mdp.39015028489303	Is she an example of a Southern belle?"
mdp.39015028489303	Is that agreed?"
mdp.39015028489303	Is that all right, daddy?"
mdp.39015028489303	Is that all that's causing this emotional outburst?
mdp.39015028489303	Is that true?"
mdp.39015028489303	Is there anybody in the whole school who does n't know your name?
mdp.39015028489303	It is a pretty tune, is n't it?"
mdp.39015028489303	Joan asked Ronald,"Do you re- member Prudence in Columbus?"
mdp.39015028489303	Joan asked with amazement in her voice,"How could a man with his looks and fairly good income remain single so long?"
mdp.39015028489303	Joan commented occasionally,"Is that so?"
mdp.39015028489303	Joan directed to Ronald,"How do you know how smart I am?"
mdp.39015028489303	Joan excitedly called across the room,"Daddy, daddy, did you get the evening paper?"
mdp.39015028489303	Joan was on the verge of saying,"Yes?"
mdp.39015028489303	Just one little mistake, so why should her life have been ruined by the puritanical attitudes of many people in this city?
mdp.39015028489303	Last year at the junior prom, do you re- member her escort was Henry Jackson, the manufacturer's son?
mdp.39015028489303	Margaret asked,"How are three men with luggage and three of us going to get in one car?"
mdp.39015028489303	More ruffled, Veronica replied,"Am I not to be trusted?
mdp.39015028489303	Mr. Harrison asked,"Light or dark meat, Ronald?"
mdp.39015028489303	Mr. Turner broke in to ask,"Joan, where do you want these heavy bags?"
mdp.39015028489303	Mr. Turner, Mrs. Turner, and 166 FALSE MEASURE for it?
mdp.39015028489303	Mrs. Harrison asked,"Do you think the United States should aid Britain and France?
mdp.39015028489303	Nobody answered so he asked,"Well?"
mdp.39015028489303	Noting the darkness, she asked,"For God's sake, mother, what time is it?
mdp.39015028489303	Oliver?
mdp.39015028489303	Once Doris asked Joan,"What's the matter with that Richmond magnolia bitch you live with who has the exag- 72 FALSE MEASURE gerated Southern drawl?
mdp.39015028489303	One said,"Where is he now?
mdp.39015028489303	Or do you think we should observe strict neu- trality and not aid either side?"
mdp.39015028489303	Our last one in the spring was at the Essex House, so why not have this one uptown?
mdp.39015028489303	Pained, Ronald asked,"What sort of man do you think I am that you wo n't allow me to show you our home?"
mdp.39015028489303	Right away?"
mdp.39015028489303	Ronald approached the bottom step; he had passed by the other two who, amused, had asked,"What's the matter, Ronald?"
mdp.39015028489303	Ronald finished his song and quietly inquired,"How're you doing?"
mdp.39015028489303	Ronald shouted once,"Will you girls wake up and keep me company on this long drive?
mdp.39015028489303	Ronald stopped short and implored,"Joan, what's the matter?"
mdp.39015028489303	Running to the stairs she asked,"Mother, where do you want me to stand?"
mdp.39015028489303	Shall we pull'er outa bed?"
mdp.39015028489303	She lost the smile on her face and was about to say,"What do you want?"
mdp.39015028489303	She returned and her father said,"How was it?"
mdp.39015028489303	She turned her head and a strange man said,"Lady, could you tell me where I can get an invitation?"
mdp.39015028489303	She whipped Joan's bed cover with her riding crop, and extended the dove of peace in asking,"How about going riding with us this morning, Adrienne?
mdp.39015028489303	She's not perfect, but who is?
mdp.39015028489303	Should it be asked?
mdp.39015028489303	Since Joan had committed no 60 FALSE MEASURE 61 breach, the opening question was,"I suppose, Miss Turner, you wondered why I sent for you?"
mdp.39015028489303	Soda?"
mdp.39015028489303	Solicitously, Edwina asked,"Joan, do you think I should make this trip with you?
mdp.39015028489303	Someone she had never met?
mdp.39015028489303	Suddenly she simulated a serious mien to Joan's and Beatrice's amuse- ment and asked,"What became of Roberta Jones?
mdp.39015028489303	Summing up all this and the fact that you've been so thoughtful of me this week, and that you've been exclusively mine, what do you have?
mdp.39015028489303	Tell me, Joan, what is it?"
mdp.39015028489303	The dancers stopped and asked her,"What did you do that for?"
mdp.39015028489303	The drinks came and Ronald asked,"Please, darling, will you drink this down?
mdp.39015028489303	The fun all of us had in Columbus in — was it 1940?
mdp.39015028489303	The porter in the doorway, the trunk still on his back, said,"Lady, where do you want this trunk?"
mdp.39015028489303	The topic was,"Did the Munich Agreement Precipitate the European War?"
mdp.39015028489303	Then on to Colum- 202 FALSE MEASURE 205"Did you ever hear of Selective Service?"
mdp.39015028489303	Then she said,"Excuse me, Joan, will you have one?
mdp.39015028489303	Then they said,"How the hell are we gon na get down there as steep as it is?"
mdp.39015028489303	They moved to the living room and Ronald, seating himself at the piano, asked,"What'll it be?"
mdp.39015028489303	Think you can find your way back without getting lost?"
mdp.39015028489303	Viewing him in the mirror, she responded resonantly,"Hi, baby, have a nice day?"
mdp.39015028489303	Was I getting along with my husband?
mdp.39015028489303	We only owe two pay- ments on the car, is n't that right?
mdp.39015028489303	What are you go- ing to do about Roberta, Joan?
mdp.39015028489303	What are you going to do to me?"
mdp.39015028489303	What are you going to wear?"
mdp.39015028489303	What do they say about me?
mdp.39015028489303	What does that mean?
mdp.39015028489303	What else could it be?
mdp.39015028489303	What else did she say?"
mdp.39015028489303	What father would n't try to do something for a son in similar circumstances?
mdp.39015028489303	What shall we do after dinner?"
mdp.39015028489303	What will I do?
mdp.39015028489303	What would they say if they learned I left Richmond to visit with a Negro family?"
mdp.39015028489303	What's the matter with you?"
mdp.39015028489303	When Joan and Ronald got home, Mrs. Turner asked,"I thought you said you were going to have everything sent except Beatrice's gift?"
mdp.39015028489303	When are you com- ing by here?"
mdp.39015028489303	When are you coming after them?"
mdp.39015028489303	When are you coming over for them?"
mdp.39015028489303	When he reported that the girls refused, the cue- ball said,"Who in hell do they think they are?"
mdp.39015028489303	When he was climbing the steps to his car she asked,"How do you like my school compared to Mount Holyoke?"
mdp.39015028489303	When she had gone, Dr. Williams asked,"What's the matter with her?"
mdp.39015028489303	Where did you find it?"
mdp.39015028489303	Where shall I begin?"
mdp.39015028489303	Where was Mildred?
mdp.39015028489303	Where was the nearest hospital?
mdp.39015028489303	Where's the maid?"
mdp.39015028489303	Who do you think you're talking to, Ronald Gregory?
mdp.39015028489303	Who is he?"
mdp.39015028489303	Whom was her husband bringing in?
mdp.39015028489303	Why are they doing this to us?"
mdp.39015028489303	Why did I have to find this out this way?
mdp.39015028489303	Why did n't Joan tell me this?
mdp.39015028489303	Why did she hide it from me?"
mdp.39015028489303	Why did you let me sleep so long?"
mdp.39015028489303	Why do n't you hang up your clothes and do likewise?"
mdp.39015028489303	Why's everybody so quiet?"
mdp.39015028489303	Why?
mdp.39015028489303	Will you follow me?"
mdp.39015028489303	Will you forgive me?
mdp.39015028489303	Will you go tomorrow night?"
mdp.39015028489303	Will you?"
mdp.39015028489303	Will you?"
mdp.39015028489303	With maternal con- cern, Mrs. Turner asked,"Are you sick, Joan?"
mdp.39015028489303	Without fail?"
mdp.39015028489303	Wo n't you come in and have a seat?"
mdp.39015028489303	Would Joan please invite her broken- hearted Ruth?
mdp.39015028489303	Would it be the right thing to do?"
mdp.39015028489303	Would you come, if only for a few minutes?"
mdp.39015028489303	You and Ronald, Joan?"
mdp.39015028489303	You get it, do n't you, Prudence?
mdp.39015028489303	You will write?
mdp.39015028489303	You wo n't disappoint me, will you?"
mdp.39015028489303	and Hey, let me see too, and Will you stop pushing?
mdp.39015028489303	or"How many minutes to play?"
mdp.39015028489303	or, hearing the cheering,"Who made the play?"
mdp.39015028489303	to herself and out loud to Joan,"Are you colored, Joan?"

njp.32101066122597	And Iola, would she be satisfied?
njp.32101066122597	And did n't you feel sorry for him?
njp.32101066122597	And did you really think that they would accept the terms of freedom and lay down their arms?
njp.32101066122597	And how,asked Robert,"do you know what I am thinking about?"
njp.32101066122597	And is not that a proof that we are at fault with respect to our institutions?
njp.32101066122597	And is this your final answer?
njp.32101066122597	And leave you?
njp.32101066122597	And what are they, Iola? njp.32101066122597 And what then?"
njp.32101066122597	And what would grandma and Uncle Robert say?
njp.32101066122597	And why let politics alone?

njp.32101066122597	Are you in earnest? njp.32101066122597 But do n't the temperance people want the colored people to vote the temperance ticket?"
njp.32101066122597	But has not society the right to guard the purity of its blood by the rigid exclusion of an alien race?
njp.32101066122597	But how came you to be Aunt Linda's husband? njp.32101066122597 But how did they get it?"
njp.32101066122597	But how is it in the Church?

njp.32101066122597	But, Iola,said Dr. Gresham, a little impatiently,"what has all this to do with our marriage?
njp.32101066122597	But, Uncle Daniel, you're not too old to want your freedom?
njp.32101066122597	But, surely, Robert, you do not think religion has degraded the negro?
njp.32101066122597	By what authority?
njp.32101066122597	By what authority?
njp.32101066122597	Captain,said Robert, with a tone of bitterness in his voice,"what had we to be grateful for?
njp.32101066122597	Compliments aside,she said, smiling;"what are you driving at, Doctor?"
njp.32101066122597	Dat's jis'de way; you see dat, Miss Iola? njp.32101066122597 Did he do it?"

njp.32101066122597	Do you think,asked Iola,"if you saw the likeness of your sister you would recognize her?"
njp.32101066122597	Does she take sides against the girl?
njp.32101066122597	Does the United States own one foot of African soil? njp.32101066122597 Does yer'member Miss Nancy's Harriet,"asked Aunt Linda,"dat she sole away kase she would n't let her whip her?

njp.32101066122597	Were you afraid of her?
njp.32101066122597	Were you aware of the virulence of caste prejudice and the disabilities which surround the colored people when you cast your lot with them?
njp.32101066122597	What are they?

njp.32101066122597	What kind of a regiment would you prefer, white or colored?
njp.32101066122597	What law, mother?
njp.32101066122597	What protection does the colored man receive from the hands of the Government? njp.32101066122597 What under heaven could have possessed you to do such a foolish thing?
njp.32101066122597	What were you saying? njp.32101066122597 What will he do about it?"
njp.32101066122597	What would mamma say?

njp.32101066122597	Yes,said Tom,"who plants de cotton and raises all de crops?"
njp.32101066122597	You are surely not going East again, and leave your mother?
njp.32101066122597	You have been associating with me at the conven- tion for several days; I do not see that the contact has dragged you down, has it?
njp.32101066122597	You never saw Marie?
njp.32101066122597	Your cousin Lorraine? njp.32101066122597 19But, Uncle Daniel,"said Robert,"what'sthe use of praying for a thing if, when it comes, you wo n't take it?

njp.32101066122597	And now I ask, will you not permit me to clasp hands with you for life?
njp.32101066122597	And what did they say to you?"
njp.32101066122597	And what do you think her cousin said?"
njp.32101066122597	And what would they have been without it?"
njp.32101066122597	And when you come to look at it, is n't it a shame to attempt to re- duce that girl to slavery?
njp.32101066122597	Are they to blame for it?
njp.32101066122597	Are you mad?"
njp.32101066122597	Are you not acting on the plan,'After me the deluge?'"
njp.32101066122597	Are you not satisfied with the power and possession the law gives you?"
njp.32101066122597	Are you sure our interests would be safe in his hands?"
njp.32101066122597	Are you thinking of taking priest's orders?"
njp.32101066122597	As the law only allows us one, which is your choice?

njp.32101066122597	But can nothing be done?
njp.32101066122597	But did n't she step her foot inter it?
njp.32101066122597	But how many men would be bound by a sense of honor where the rights of a colored woman are in question?
njp.32101066122597	But we are in it, and what can wc do?"
njp.32101066122597	But, Doctor, had you not better defer your love- making till you're out of the woods?"
njp.32101066122597	But, what's to hinder you from gwine wid us?"
njp.32101066122597	Ca n't you pull a trigger as well as a white man?'
njp.32101066122597	Could a man choose a better place to die?"
njp.32101066122597	Did not the whole nation con- sent to our abasement?"
njp.32101066122597	Did you ever hear him pray?"
njp.32101066122597	Did you get married since the war?"
njp.32101066122597	Did you know Captain Sellers?"
njp.32101066122597	Did you know that Captain Sybil was killed in one of the last battles of the war?
njp.32101066122597	Did you see dat nice little cabin down dere wid de green shutters an'nice little garden in front?
njp.32101066122597	Do n't you feel well?"
njp.32101066122597	Do n't you know if my father were here he would crush you to the earth?"
njp.32101066122597	Do n't you know that these beautiful girls have been the curse of our homes?

njp.32101066122597	Do you remember Uncle Daniel?"
njp.32101066122597	Do you remember telling me about your mother and brother?"
njp.32101066122597	Do you think these things will last forever?"
njp.32101066122597	Doc- tor, tell me how it is?
njp.32101066122597	Doctor, was it a dream, or was it a reality?
njp.32101066122597	Does you'member Jake Williams an'Gundover's Tom?
njp.32101066122597	Finally, he asked how they did it?
njp.32101066122597	For ages of poverty, ignorance, and slavery?
njp.32101066122597	Had father no friends who would assist us?"
njp.32101066122597	Had that army, with freedom emblazoned on its banners, come at last to offer them deliverance if they would accept it?
njp.32101066122597	Has she come?"
njp.32101066122597	Have you had a presentiment of my death, or, as Uncle Jack says,'hab you seed it in a vision?'"
njp.32101066122597	He opened the door quietly and whispered: —"Anything new, Tom?"
njp.32101066122597	How about dinner, mother?"
njp.32101066122597	How could her marriage be set aside and her children robbed of their inheritance?
njp.32101066122597	How dare I dream of happiness when my poor mamma's heart may be slowly breaking?
njp.32101066122597	How did it happen?"
njp.32101066122597	How did you get along after she died?"
njp.32101066122597	How did you hear it, Tom?
njp.32101066122597	How did you know me?"
njp.32101066122597	How does yer do?
njp.32101066122597	How have you been all this time, and where?"
njp.32101066122597	How have you been getting on since freedom?"
njp.32101066122597	How is you, chile?"
njp.32101066122597	How is your company getting on?"
njp.32101066122597	How long have I been here?"
njp.32101066122597	How?"
njp.32101066122597	I am delighted to hear it Where are they?"
njp.32101066122597	I do wish that you would tell me why you take this unpre- cedented step?"
njp.32101066122597	I do wonder what has be- come of her?
njp.32101066122597	I do wonder what has become of the boys?
njp.32101066122597	I wonder whom I can take with me?"
njp.32101066122597	If my mother was lawfully married, how could they deprive her of her marital rights?"
njp.32101066122597	In telling you this, do you not, can you not, see that there is an insurmountable barrier between us?"
njp.32101066122597	Iola, did you ever attend an anti- slavery meeting?"
njp.32101066122597	Is it one of those beautiful Creole girls who were visiting Augustine's plantation last winter?
njp.32101066122597	Is it somethin'good for us?"
njp.32101066122597	Is not the most arrant Rebel to- day more acceptable to you than the most faithful colored man?"
njp.32101066122597	Is that so?"
njp.32101066122597	Is yer gwine wid us, ef yer gits a chance?''
njp.32101066122597	It is not natural for people to run away from happiness, and if they are so happy and contented, why did Congress pass the Fugitive Slave Bill?"
njp.32101066122597	Leroy?"
njp.32101066122597	Look yere, honey, whar did yer come from?
njp.32101066122597	Most of our people take life easily — why should n't you?"
njp.32101066122597	Nothing of the absent but good?"
njp.32101066122597	Now that I have told you my story, what say you?"
njp.32101066122597	Now, Captain, ai n't I right?"
njp.32101066122597	Now, own up, Robby, did n't you feel kine ob mean to go off widout eben biddin'her good bye?
njp.32101066122597	Now, what are we to do with them?"
njp.32101066122597	Now, what would I say if they all consent?"
njp.32101066122597	Now, would n't dat hab bin smart ter let on ter you chaps, an'hab you huntin'for it from Dan ter Barsheba?
njp.32101066122597	Robby, honey, does you really b'lieve for good and righty dat dem Yankees is got horns?"
njp.32101066122597	Robert lay quiet and thoughtful for awhile and, see- ing he was wakeful, Iola said,"Have you any friends to whom you would like to send a letter?"
njp.32101066122597	Shadows that you merely dread?"
njp.32101066122597	She began on a small scale, in a humble building, 202 IOLA LEROY,"Marie,"said Robert,"how would you like to leave the South?"
njp.32101066122597	She caught sight of the drooping head and grief- stricken face, and rushed to her, exclaiming: —"Whar's Marse Eugene?"
njp.32101066122597	She sez,'Den you wo n't want tcr work for us?'
njp.32101066122597	Tenderly and sadly bending over him, with tears in her dark, luminous eyes, she said,"Is there anything I can do for you?"
njp.32101066122597	Then growing calmer, she said,"Mother, who is at the bottom of this downright robbery?"
njp.32101066122597	Then suddenly raising his head, he exclaimed,"Boys, there's not one of you loves freedom more than I do, but""But what?"
njp.32101066122597	To whom to- day is the world most indebted — to its millionaires or to its martyrs?"
njp.32101066122597	To- day your friendship springs from com- passion, but, when that subsides, might you not look on me as an inferior?"
njp.32101066122597	War you much hurt?
njp.32101066122597	Was it a bright, beautiful dream, or a blessed reality soon to be grasped by his willing hands?
njp.32101066122597	Was it not true that the cause of a hapless people had become entangled with the lightnings of heaven, and dragged down retribution upon the land?
njp.32101066122597	Was that so?
njp.32101066122597	We are all invited to Mr. Stillman's to a conversazione?
njp.32101066122597	Well, which is your choice?"
njp.32101066122597	Whar did yer ketch up wid her?"
njp.32101066122597	What are you doing now, and where are you living?"
njp.32101066122597	What are your plans?"
njp.32101066122597	What can any woman do when she is placed in the hands of an irresponsible master; when she knows that resistance is vain?
njp.32101066122597	What can keep them so long?"
njp.32101066122597	What could a set of unarmed and undisciplined men do against the fearful odds which beset their path?
njp.32101066122597	What did it mean?
njp.32101066122597	What has that got to do with associating with niggers?"
njp.32101066122597	What is to hinder you from sharing my Northern home, from having mymother to be your mother?"
njp.32101066122597	What under heaven possessed you to do such a thing?"
njp.32101066122597	What will you do?"
njp.32101066122597	What, under heaven, are they fighting for?
njp.32101066122597	When will you leave?"
njp.32101066122597	Where are they?
njp.32101066122597	Where did you learn it?"
njp.32101066122597	Where do you stop?"
njp.32101066122597	Where is Gracie?"
njp.32101066122597	Where shall I call?"
njp.32101066122597	Where should he go if he left this country?"
njp.32101066122597	Where's that?"
njp.32101066122597	Which is your choice?
njp.32101066122597	Who is his patient now?"
njp.32101066122597	Who is the fortunate lady who has bound you with her silken fetters?
njp.32101066122597	Who was she, and who were her people?
njp.32101066122597	Why do n't you study theology?"
njp.32101066122597	Why not let well enough alone?"
njp.32101066122597	Why should she refuse these desirable boons?
njp.32101066122597	Why should we yield to its be- hests?"
njp.32101066122597	Why subject yourself to the same experience again?"
njp.32101066122597	Will you send her this?"
njp.32101066122597	Wo n't you get a pair of spectacles and learn to read?"
njp.32101066122597	Would the most cruel heathen do worse?"
njp.32101066122597	Would you be willing to take a school among these people?
njp.32101066122597	Would you like to enlist?"
njp.32101066122597	You bin dar?"
njp.32101066122597	You got my letter?"
njp.32101066122597	an'whar hab you bin all dis time?"
njp.32101066122597	asked Marie;"an invitation to a hop or a german?"
njp.32101066122597	come now, Colonel, ca n't a man praise a woman without being in love with her?"
njp.32101066122597	do n't you know the Yankees are our best friends?"
njp.32101066122597	have I found you at last?"
njp.32101066122597	is dis you?
njp.32101066122597	said mammy,"ai n't you hearn tell'bout it?
njp.32101066122597	•"How was that?
mdp.39015008240296	- “ What's this suppose to be? ” he bellowed.
mdp.39015008240296	- “ You would n’t be aimin ’ to invite the whole restaurant, would yóu? ” Dowd asked.
mdp.39015008240296	. ” Dave's eyes twinkled as he cut Asher off with: “ You ’re in a jam, pardner?
mdp.39015008240296	. ” “ Lover? ” the Casablanca boy cut in.
mdp.39015008240296	... Say, what's wrong, any- way?
mdp.39015008240296	... What they expect outa us? ” “ For Christ sake! ” Dave exploded.
mdp.39015008240296	8 “ What — what's insurance? ” “ Come, now, ” Chief exclaimed, “ how do you expect to make a dollar in there in the dining- room?
mdp.39015008240296	8 “ What — what's insurance? ” “ Come, now, ” Chief exclaimed, “ how do you expect to make a dollar in there in the dining- room?
mdp.39015008240296	A damn fool? ” Dave stepped in front of Asher.
mdp.39015008240296	All the crap you got ta take... ” “ What's goin'on in here? ” Asher asked as he stepped between the two men.
mdp.39015008240296	Am I playing you or you playing me?
mdp.39015008240296	An it'll be way after seven'fore they gits back in the second section. ” “ So what? ” Asher snapped.
mdp.39015008240296	An'where'll I be?
mdp.39015008240296	And if not now, when?
mdp.39015008240296	And they'll throw in whatever the dish- washers break up besides. ” “ You ’re kiddin ’? ” Asher said suspiciously.
mdp.39015008240296	Apparently Ester read his thoughts, for she said: “ What did you expect — a love nest?
mdp.39015008240296	Are you on the ball or not? ” Asher tried again.
mdp.39015008240296	But whatta those jerks think — they're white?
mdp.39015008240296	Ca n't take it, huh? ” Ester grew used to having Asher about.
mdp.39015008240296	Ca n't we be just good friends? ” “ Not the way you're pattin'my cheek. ” Ester laughed softly, but did not stop.
mdp.39015008240296	Ca n't you ever think of any- thing else? ” Asher winked at her sheepishly.
mdp.39015008240296	Calls it his ‘ concession ’ — an ’ she sure ca n't make it offa tips alone. ” “ What? ” “ That's a fact, pardner, ” Dave replied.
mdp.39015008240296	Can I do without it?
mdp.39015008240296	Did n't you? ” He looked around at the sweating waiters, their undershirts dripping wet.
mdp.39015008240296	Did she have two or a half- dozen “ daddies ”?
mdp.39015008240296	Didcha?
mdp.39015008240296	Do I have to have this or can it wait an- other week?
mdp.39015008240296	Do n't be so slow,'cause a dollar in there will get you five hundred here. ” “ The numbers? ” Asher inquired.
mdp.39015008240296	Finally, he said: “ You with'em or the Kingfish? ” The question took Hogan by surprise.
mdp.39015008240296	Gib me the key. ” “ You would n't beg for it? ” she asked.
mdp.39015008240296	God damn, Asher swore to himself as the vegetable cook swore at him, do they all have different vegetables with each meal at home?
mdp.39015008240296	Going over to Dave, Asher said: “ What's hap- penin', pal? ” “ Nothin’ bad, pardner, ” Dave replied.
mdp.39015008240296	Gon na tell the King how to run his business?
mdp.39015008240296	Had Asher, scheming to get Chief's job, succeeded in cutting the rope which held the headwaiter chained to the Kingfish?
mdp.39015008240296	He wants a stooge?
mdp.39015008240296	He would point him out to another waiter, and ask: “ Is he one of us? ” The waiter would put on a serious expression, sweep Asher studi.
mdp.39015008240296	How can I sneak in without getting caught?
mdp.39015008240296	How could she manage so swank an apartment?
mdp.39015008240296	How did you judge a man?
mdp.39015008240296	How else would they make use of all the hot water he provided?
mdp.39015008240296	How far you think they gon na git?
mdp.39015008240296	How much can he get a- hold of?
mdp.39015008240296	How much has he got?
mdp.39015008240296	How much will he go for?
mdp.39015008240296	How much you got to go in? ” Asher took a warped black wallet out of his hip pocket.
mdp.39015008240296	How'bout a drink to cool you off?
mdp.39015008240296	How, then, did you figure it out?
mdp.39015008240296	I could give my ol'lady a... how's'bout lettin'me throw the party? ” “ Your ol'lady? ” Dowd said.
mdp.39015008240296	I could give my ol'lady a... how's'bout lettin'me throw the party? ” “ Your ol'lady? ” Dowd said.
mdp.39015008240296	I jus ’ wanta talk to you. ” “ About what? ” Ester snapped.
mdp.39015008240296	I knew you could help me. ” “ How, boss?
mdp.39015008240296	Is she two- timing you? ” “ No, boss, they do n't pull that kinda stuff off on me, ” Asher re- plied.
mdp.39015008240296	Is she- how do the waiters say it?
mdp.39015008240296	Is there, Brown? ” “ Well, I — I chance twenty- five or thirty cents on'em once an'awhile.
mdp.39015008240296	Know one thing, darling?
mdp.39015008240296	Know that sandwich place the other side of where the bus stops, the Irish Peggy?
mdp.39015008240296	Lemonade?
mdp.39015008240296	Like it? ” He looked at her dress as though he were noticing it for the first time that night.
mdp.39015008240296	Lobster thermidor?
mdp.39015008240296	Make a pass at your gal, boy? ” Asher stood now absent- mindedly fumbling with the roll of bills in his hands.
mdp.39015008240296	Man, ai n't nothin’ like it in no other dining- room in the world. ” “ What'd they do to become cap'n? ” Asher asked.
mdp.39015008240296	Near the corner of 149th Street where St. Nicholas Place forks 54 “ Well? ” she said.
mdp.39015008240296	Oh, yeah — you mean ‘ bout settin'you up in busi- ness? ” “ It sure took a long time for it to come back to you, ” Ester began.
mdp.39015008240296	One of them, a tall, executive- looking cop, said: “ You Asher Brown? ” “ Yeah, ” Asher said slowly.
mdp.39015008240296	Or do I have to tell you? ” Mr. Jack was what you would call a good- natured, free- spending wolf.
mdp.39015008240296	Shall I get this?
mdp.39015008240296	She had cooed, “ You do n't mind, do you? ” Asher sighed with relief when he finished serving the party.
mdp.39015008240296	She musta got two of them for the same price. ” “ Where? ” asked Asher, looking around.
mdp.39015008240296	So take it easy, will you, daddy? ” A childish giggle came from the back window of the old car.
mdp.39015008240296	So why should n't they bring it to me?
mdp.39015008240296	Soon's I git of'n it here she comes buck- jumping. ” “ You dunno what's wrong wid you? ” queried a waiter standing behind him.
mdp.39015008240296	Such interesting weekend trips?
mdp.39015008240296	Sup- pose the Kingfish does n't give in so easy, will they stick together?
mdp.39015008240296	Suppose I ’d really brained that bastard right in there?
mdp.39015008240296	T H E W A IT E R S THE WAITERS by William Fisher If I am not for myself, who will be for me?
mdp.39015008240296	Take me home, will you? ” Asher looked from Ester to Hattie.
mdp.39015008240296	The cop said: “ You ’re in charge of this walkout, are n't you? ” “ About seventy- five men, ” answered Spike.
mdp.39015008240296	Then Asher smiled and said: “ How'bout some steamed clams?
mdp.39015008240296	Then he asked, “ What's the mat- ter?
mdp.39015008240296	Then he asked: “ How you and Ester doin’ these days?
mdp.39015008240296	Then he said: “ We got ta get you in the front room, pardner. ” “ How you gon na do it?
mdp.39015008240296	Then he shot right over Asher's shoulder to his captain, “ Should n't he, Cap'n? ” “ That sure would be a smart thing, ” said the captain.
mdp.39015008240296	Then the Kingfish said: “ How do you think it'll work out if they serve the steaks and chops separately?
mdp.39015008240296	Waiter, how ’s about some service here? ” But Asher noticed that the waiters did not hop and skip at the Fishbowlers ’ commands.
mdp.39015008240296	Wanna come with me? ” “ Not tonight.
mdp.39015008240296	Want me to tell him I wo n't be keepin'you long? ” He jerked his head back in the direction of where he'd left Asher.
mdp.39015008240296	Want some? ” Asher eyed Casablanca intently for a moment, as Raymond winked at him.
mdp.39015008240296	Was it tender enough for you? ” Asher did not answer.
mdp.39015008240296	Were the police really out to smash the numbers game?
mdp.39015008240296	What had happened to her?
mdp.39015008240296	What kinda business is he in, honey?
mdp.39015008240296	What made you feel friendly toward one man, indifferent to another?
mdp.39015008240296	What the hell am I getting out of life?
mdp.39015008240296	What the hell would I do with myself?
mdp.39015008240296	What the hell would Papa Slick be doing out here this time of day?
mdp.39015008240296	What was I supposed to do? ” Asher asked angrily.
mdp.39015008240296	What was it all about?
mdp.39015008240296	What was that supposed to be — some kind of act?
mdp.39015008240296	What was there about the place that seemed to excite Ester?
mdp.39015008240296	What were you two arguing about? ” He straightened up then, slowly and stiffly.
mdp.39015008240296	What'd them bad folks order — lunch- time stuff? ” 31 “ Lobsters, ” Asher said, spitting out the word.
mdp.39015008240296	What's all this about? ” she said, stopping short as if she were thinking.
mdp.39015008240296	What's the difference?
mdp.39015008240296	What, then, could the rumor mean?
mdp.39015008240296	What?
mdp.39015008240296	Whatta you say? ” For several minutes Ester did not answer, only looking intently into Asher's face.
mdp.39015008240296	Whatta you think I am? ” “ What's the matter, baby? ” “ You know what I mean, ” she said, her eyes blazing.
mdp.39015008240296	Whatta you think I am? ” “ What's the matter, baby? ” “ You know what I mean, ” she said, her eyes blazing.
mdp.39015008240296	Where had she been last night?
mdp.39015008240296	Who did she think she was, anyway?
mdp.39015008240296	Who do you think you're talkin'to?
mdp.39015008240296	Who had bought that for her?
mdp.39015008240296	Who the hell does she think she is?
mdp.39015008240296	Who the hell is this jerk?
mdp.39015008240296	Who'd you think I ’m talkin ’ about? ” “ Well! ” the man said, as if he were impressed.
mdp.39015008240296	Why do n't you buy yourself something cool to wear? ” Asher was obviously taken by surprise.
mdp.39015008240296	Why the hell do n't he go some place else?
mdp.39015008240296	Why wo n't they just let me be?
mdp.39015008240296	Why's everybody actin’so darned strange? ” “ Huh!
mdp.39015008240296	Wonder where they stole this one from? ” “ Who ’s the friend? ” “ You really wanta know? ” she asked with a chuckle.
mdp.39015008240296	Wonder where they stole this one from? ” “ Who ’s the friend? ” “ You really wanta know? ” she asked with a chuckle.
mdp.39015008240296	Wonder where they stole this one from? ” “ Who ’s the friend? ” “ You really wanta know? ” she asked with a chuckle.
mdp.39015008240296	Would she be interested?
mdp.39015008240296	Yeah? ” “ Like us an ’ one of us ai n’t the same.
mdp.39015008240296	Yet if I am for myself only, what am I?
mdp.39015008240296	You did n't believe me when I told you I'd get mine outa this man's world, did you?
mdp.39015008240296	You got any parties? ” “ They's almost finished, ” Raymond put in.
mdp.39015008240296	You know how he is?
mdp.39015008240296	You mean this morning, don'tcha? ” she quipped, looking into his face.
mdp.39015008240296	You on the wagon? ” Asher looked down at his empty glass.
mdp.39015008240296	You want me to collect this jive, do n't you?
mdp.39015008240296	You would n't mind a little thing like the black market? ” “ Black market! ” Asher said.
mdp.39015008240296	You young fool, why have you done this to me? ” “ He started it, ” Asher blurted out, nodding in Mr. Dunkel's direc- tion.
mdp.39015008240296	You're new, man, ai n't you? ” “ Sure hope you know what you talkin''bout, ” Asher said nervously as he looked at the frightened- faced man.
mdp.39015008240296	You're not jealous?
mdp.39015008240296	oh, Lord, how much?
mdp.39015008240296	the law?
mdp.39015008240296	tween us in here?
mdp.39015008240296	“ A party, did you say?
mdp.39015008240296	“ A wake or somethin’? ” “ Jus'one a these off- nights, I suppose, ” Rowden said, as he inched back to make room for Asher.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Ai n’t I good enough for you? ” he blurted out.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Ai n’t you got no Scotch? ” Asher barked petulantly.
mdp.39015008240296	“ All messed up, huh? ” Asher said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ An'that's all. ” “ Whatta you expect? ” Jordon queried.
mdp.39015008240296	“ And I'll tell you something. ” “ What? ” Ester looked at him with her heavy, sad expression.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Are n’t we, men? ” “ That's right, ” a waiter answered.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Are you all right? ” Ester said to Asher, as she bent over him.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Are you jokin ’?
mdp.39015008240296	“ Are you? ” Asher asked in return.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Be here ninety years? ” “ You interested, buddy? ” “ Who me? ” Asher said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Be here ninety years? ” “ You interested, buddy? ” “ Who me? ” Asher said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Be here ninety years? ” “ You interested, buddy? ” “ Who me? ” Asher said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Bored? ” “ Nope, ” she answered flirtatiously.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Boy friend?
mdp.39015008240296	“ Business? ” the Kingfish said irritably.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Ca n't I have friends?
mdp.39015008240296	“ Ca n't you get in? ” He grinned broadly as she took the key out of his hand, and sought to put it in the keyhole, to demonstrate how it worked.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Can you be tempted, Henry? ” he asked.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Could we have more? ” Asher made the three- block- long journey back to the kitchen for the biscuits and returned.
mdp.39015008240296	“ DA? ” Asher asked inquiringly.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Did n't you think that was one gorgeous farm Ray Chalmers had?
mdp.39015008240296	“ Do I like it? ” She repeated the question as if not knowing what else to say.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Do n’t I act like it? ” “ You wo n't let me down? ” she questioned, a little breathlessly.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Do n’t I act like it? ” “ You wo n't let me down? ” she questioned, a little breathlessly.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Do n’t reckon you ever heard her, did you? ” Asher nodded his head, dubiously.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Do n’t suit your fancy? ” he queried, his voice cracking with sarcasm.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Do n’t you dig what's goin’ down? ” Asher did not answer.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Do n’t you ever get tired of seeing those buzzards? ” she asked.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Do n’t you want to sit down, Asher? ” she finally asked him, smiling a little.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Do you stop in here every night? ” Asher asked Ester.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Don’tcha even wanta talk to me? ” “ What's there to talk about? ” Ester said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Don’tcha even wanta talk to me? ” “ What's there to talk about? ” Ester said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Expect them tables to walk out here to you- all? ” he said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Framin ’ my boy? ” “ Not on your life, pardner, ” Dave replied.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Gettin'a bit hot for you?
mdp.39015008240296	“ Got any identifica- tion on you? ” he said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Got ta heavy date, kid?
mdp.39015008240296	“ Had any luck yet, boss? ” he asked once.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Have a good day? ” he smiled at Asher.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Hi you, kid? ” Slater said breezily, taking Ester's hand in his.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Him?
mdp.39015008240296	“ How could you say such a thing? ” she said, looking him straight in the face.
mdp.39015008240296	“ How you doing? ” Ester asked indifferently.
mdp.39015008240296	“ How'd it go today? ” he said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ How'd you come up short? ” Hans scratched himself and grimaced.
mdp.39015008240296	“ How'd you like them, sir? ” Asher ventured timidly.
mdp.39015008240296	“ How'd you like to git away to some place like that? ” he asked.
mdp.39015008240296	“ How's about a 1942 Chrysler club coupe?
mdp.39015008240296	“ How's about gettin'us a drink? ” Asher looked at Jordon, then at Dave.
mdp.39015008240296	“ How's that for drumming up business on a slow night? ” Mike 261- during the dinner hour.
mdp.39015008240296	“ How's the joint usin'you? ” Hattie said in a pleasant, rehearsed Imanner.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Huh — wha — huh? ” he babbled, rising to a half- sitting position in the bed.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Huh? ” Asher said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Huh? ” he said, stretching himself.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Huh? ” she said, panting, when she was able to speak.
mdp.39015008240296	“ I can depend on you? ” He held her in his arms for quite a long while without answering.
mdp.39015008240296	“ I got somebody? ” “ You ’re damn tootin ’.
mdp.39015008240296	“ I knew you'd do it or bust. ” “ Dave tell you? ” he asked with sudden suspicion.
mdp.39015008240296	“ I need a good man in there to take charge and keep an eye on them waiters and clam- openers. ” “ Huh? ” Chief answered as though stunned.
mdp.39015008240296	“ I ’ll bet your chick's not too young to fry? ” she asked.
mdp.39015008240296	“ I ’ll take it, baby. ” “ Take what? ” Ester asked.
mdp.39015008240296	“ I ’m savin ’ it all for you. ” “ Yeah? ” “ Of course, silly. ” He smiled and she kissed him again.
mdp.39015008240296	“ In a hurry? ” He seemed to speak mostly for the benefit of his companions.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Is that why you took a fadeout powder on me las'night? ” The twinkle gave way to a broad grin.
mdp.39015008240296	“ It ’s a cryin'shame what happened here this mornin ’. ” “ Were you in the front room when they picked Logan up? ” “ No!
mdp.39015008240296	“ Livin'with you and Hattie? ” “ Nope, ” she said with a low chuckle.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Me? ” parried Asher.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Nobody knows a thing about this? ” Then he walked over to the service buffet, picked the drink up and smelled it.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Now do n't tell me you'd mind?
mdp.39015008240296	“ Now that that's taken care of, what else have you got for us, Brown? ” “ A nice half a chicken, ” Asher suggested.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Now will you feed me? ” “ That's the way to ask for it, ” she would answer.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Now you're not sore'cause I did n't let you get it for me, are you? ” Ester said jokingly.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Now, what's going on here? ” the rangy one began, after looking briefly at the well- dressed defenders.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Oh my, you're so good to me. ” “ Because of this? ” he asked carelessly, as though he never drank anything else.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Promise you wo n't blow your top?
mdp.39015008240296	“ Rainin ’ like hell, huh? ” he said, making a question out of a state- ment of fact.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Remember what you promised me? ” “ Huh!
mdp.39015008240296	“ Runnin ’ a little crap game, maybe? ” the other cop cross- examined.
mdp.39015008240296	“ See? ” said Chief, turning so that every waiter in the room could look at the money.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Sick? ” Now it was a roar — a roar of rage, the roar of pent- up feelings breaking bounds.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Sick? ” he said slowly, as though struggling to fathom the meaning of the word.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Something wrong? ” Brady said levelly, still fingering the bills.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Sup- pose they walk out? ” she said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Think I ai n't got nothin’ to do but waste my time listenin ’ to that kinda crap? ” Hogan screwed up his mouth reflectively.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Think he's in love with you? ” He was aware of her studying his face as he turned her question over in his mind.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Think you- all could take care of a real smart guy? ” he asked.
mdp.39015008240296	“ This here is a young man you talkin ’ to. ” “ Whatcha mean, twenty years ago? ” Rowden said, feigning a cocky aggressiveness.
mdp.39015008240296	“ This your place? ” barked the cop standing nearest Asher.
mdp.39015008240296	“ This your place? ” he asked.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Was it over that meeting last night? ” he asked Asher.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Well — what can I do for you? ” he demanded at last.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Well, what's the last one? ” Asher asked impatiently, without once taking his eyes off the desk.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What about us? ” “ It ’s been almost three weeks since we been together, ” he said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What are you going to do? ” “ It ’ll never happen, ” Asher said, evasively.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What could be finer, babes? ” He looked at her inquiringly.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What d'you think it would cost in the store? ” “ I dunno. ” “ Not a penny under thirty- five dollars.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What do you want? ” Mr. Jack asked as Asher took a good look.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What goes on here? ” Chief asked as he walked up to the three waiters.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What happened to the gang? ” he said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What shall I do? ” Turning to Asher, who was dusting himself off, the Kingfish said: “ Look what you've done to me.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What the hell is that — a dog- ass? ” The waiters looked at Asher and laughed.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What the hell you guys gon na do when your money runs out?
mdp.39015008240296	“ What the hell's the big idea? ” Asher demanded angrily.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What time is it gettin'to be? ” “ Just nine- thirty, darling. ” He sat up and stretched.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What you got in the pot, babes? ” he would ask.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What you like today? ” Cap'n Logan said when he reached Asher.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What you sellin'in here, boy? ” one asked.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What — me, boss? ” “ Who else do you think I ’m talking about, ” the Kingfish said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What'd they do?
mdp.39015008240296	“ What's eatin'you, baby? ” Then he answered his own question.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What's he payin'off wid — toilet paper? ” Several of the waiters chuckled.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What's it gon na be, gentlemen? ” he said sullenly, his face impas- sive.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What's makin'you act like this? ” Ester asked as she sidled up to Asher, who was standing in front of the dresser.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What's the matter, babes? ” he asked, following along at her side.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What's the matter, baby? ” Asher asked.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What's the matter, daddy? ” she said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What's the matter, pal? ” he asked Asher.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What's the matter? ” the man asked Asher querulously.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What's up, Charlie? ” Asher asked.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What's your game, drinking or the girlies? ” “ Sure, Chief, I ’m regular.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What? ” “ You really interested? ” “ What is this, some sort of a game? ” “ I ’ve got a little boy, ” she said slowly.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What? ” “ You really interested? ” “ What is this, some sort of a game? ” “ I ’ve got a little boy, ” she said slowly.
mdp.39015008240296	“ What? ” “ You really interested? ” “ What is this, some sort of a game? ” “ I ’ve got a little boy, ” she said slowly.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Whatta you goin’ do with all the money you'll be makin ’? ” “ You said that right.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Whatta you mean a few minutes? ” he said loudly.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Whatta you say to that, Henry?
mdp.39015008240296	“ Whatta you think you're doin’? ” Asher said pointedly, as he pulled a huge roll of bills from his pocket.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Whatta you think, I ’m running a waiter's school, here? ” 92 “ The bastards ordered more coffee.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Whatta you want? ” she said, bitterly.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Whattsa matter, afraid you might get a little workout? ” “ You know me.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Whattsa matter, kid? ” Slater said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Where are you? ” 242 again.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Where do you get some- tin ’ to eat? ” “ Listen, man, they pay you to work in this place, not to eat.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Where's that no- good Kingfish? ” he said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Where? ” he said, when words did come.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Who do you think you are? ” 259 gang of flowers, roses and buttercups and whatnot, for two or three cents apiece.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Who ’s Monroe? ” he repeated.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Who ’s that baby? ” Asher said, almost as if he were talking to himself.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Whose first play is it? ” Ester said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Why bring that up on a night like this? ” he asked impatiently.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Why do n't you clean the floor? ” “ You telling me how to run my business? ” the Kingfish said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Why do n't you clean the floor? ” “ You telling me how to run my business? ” the Kingfish said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Why me? ” he said tersely.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Why not? ” The words had tumbled out almost before he realized what he had said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Wonder how he makes it? ” “ He ’s free, white, and over twenty- one, ” Asher mused aloud.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Wonder how much he paid for his stock in the corporation? ” said the small- eyed waiter.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Wonder what dog told him? ” Jordon said when he finally got himself together.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Would you like them boiled or broiled, sir? ” “ Bring us four large broiled lobsters, ” the man commanded, in a morose growl.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Yeah? ” Ester said as she seated herself in a corner of the sofa.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Yes, of course. ” “ Well, whatcha waitin ’ for? ” he said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ Yessir? ” “ Bring us some lobsters, ” the man snapped.
mdp.39015008240296	“ You ai n't gon na answer it, are you? ” “ The way you got that radio blasting, ” she said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ You an ’ Miss Ester married? ” Asher grinned broadly.
mdp.39015008240296	“ You been to college? ” he said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ You do love me, do n't you? ” she asked plaintively a few minutes later.
mdp.39015008240296	“ You girls want anything first? ” The three women shook their heads.
mdp.39015008240296	“ You giving this party? ” demanded the other cop.
mdp.39015008240296	“ You gon na pay off the new way or the old way? ” he asked Asher.
mdp.39015008240296	“ You gon na talk to me now? ” Asher demanded.
mdp.39015008240296	“ You like it, baby? ” he asked.
mdp.39015008240296	“ You like my place, do n't you? ” He watched a smile of agreement flood Asher's face.
mdp.39015008240296	“ You look like you ai n't doin'so well? ” “ Whatta you care? ” she said, trying to put a laugh into her voice.
mdp.39015008240296	“ You look like you ai n't doin'so well? ” “ Whatta you care? ” she said, trying to put a laugh into her voice.
mdp.39015008240296	“ You sure? ” she said.
mdp.39015008240296	“ You want a car? ” he demanded.
mdp.39015008240296	“ You want'em raw? ”... “ Drop your draws if you wanta pick up ”.
mdp.39015008240296	“ You ’re not the jealous kind, are you? ” Again she looked into Asher's face, long and pensively.
mdp.39015008240296	“ ‘ Fraid the walls would talk? ” “ Last night!
mdp.39015018046923	And where do we go from here?
mdp.39015018046923	Because you want to tell what you know, or because it's the easiest job to get?.
mdp.39015018046923	But,asked Watson,"does the Northern Farmers Alliance admit Negroes?"
mdp.39015018046923	Dr. Carter? mdp.39015018046923 Have you a'new freedom'for white Americans and a new slavery for your Afro- American fellow- citizens?"
mdp.39015018046923	Hello, ” he replied; and then,What would you like to do tonight, if you're free?"
mdp.39015018046923	How did he answer you?
mdp.39015018046923	I was just looking about"Would n't you like to meet our professor of Greek? ” Of course Manuel knew that Greek was Dr. Baldwin's hobby. mdp.39015018046923 Is she still alive? ”"So it seems, and she sent him to us."
mdp.39015018046923	Like it?
mdp.39015018046923	Now, Colonel, will you and your folks promise us this much justice? mdp.39015018046923 So you know him personally? ” asked Miss Freiburg.
mdp.39015018046923	That I readily grant, but the ways of men are painfully clear, are n't they?
mdp.39015018046923	There is still time,she argued, “ what proof have you that all is lost?"
mdp.39015018046923	Well, how do you like Princeton? mdp.39015018046923 What are you going to be when you finish? ” “ I do n't know, Sir.
mdp.39015018046923	What became of him?
mdp.39015018046923	What did he say?
mdp.39015018046923	What difference? mdp.39015018046923 What is your name?"
mdp.39015018046923	What we needs is law and order; honesty from employers, and-What can I call it? mdp.39015018046923 What's your name?
mdp.39015018046923	When is this meeting? ” “ Tomorrow night. mdp.39015018046923 When?"
mdp.39015018046923	Where are you from?
mdp.39015018046923	Where do you think you're going? ” he asked unsteadily. mdp.39015018046923 Who shall say where discrimination once begun shall cease?
mdp.39015018046923	You a student here?
mdp.39015018046923	You do n't mean you're blaming God for it, do you? ”Certainly not.
mdp.39015018046923	You two know each other? mdp.39015018046923 ) — suppose that falling out among themselves they should commit suicide and leave the world to black, yellow and brown? mdp.39015018046923 ...She paused and stared at Mansart in sudden fear- had they kidnapped her husband- or killed him?
mdp.39015018046923	?
mdp.39015018046923	And England?
mdp.39015018046923	And I'm wondering if we Negroes always got to be as poor, ignorant and sick?"
mdp.39015018046923	And how could he after that make a living?
mdp.39015018046923	And if with such alliance we could not face the North with better arms in our hands? ” 18 THE ORDEAL OF MANSART de Breckinpiebeseriede labruptly.
mdp.39015018046923	And now, may I use your phone?
mdp.39015018046923	And say, have you by any chance been reading about the Socialism these foreigners are talking?"
mdp.39015018046923	And so far as that was concerned, might there not be mulattoes in Carolina descended as directly from Charlemagne as any Breckinridge?
mdp.39015018046923	And stealing- my God, who had stolen more or gotten as much as white men whom they both knew?
mdp.39015018046923	And too, how far was there anything real to all this pretense at aristocracy?
mdp.39015018046923	And what about the masses of white laboring riff- raff who fought and won this war?"
mdp.39015018046923	And where in God's name are the gentlemen these days?
mdp.39015018046923	And where there is no real lack nor difference, should they not be free?
mdp.39015018046923	At any rate, will it hurt to ask? ” Ellott turned to Mansart.
mdp.39015018046923	Beat up?
mdp.39015018046923	Because of accomplishment or tragedy?
mdp.39015018046923	Betty Lou came out on the porch: “ You're not going out, Mother? ” “ Just a moment."
mdp.39015018046923	Betty fumed, “ Why in God's name does n't the old fossil die?"
mdp.39015018046923	But I'm wondering just what kind of labor I would be allowed to do, and for whom, ” he paused imperceptibly, “ and why?"
mdp.39015018046923	But Northern business men?
mdp.39015018046923	But after all, what could she do?
mdp.39015018046923	But after all, what is voting?
mdp.39015018046923	But ai n't there a card here that we can play?
mdp.39015018046923	But are you unwilling even to talk with a Negro?"
mdp.39015018046923	But did he have courage to do this?
mdp.39015018046923	But few realized its dif- ficulties: who could get the ear of the planters, and who now were the planters?
mdp.39015018046923	But he cried: “ Discouraged?
mdp.39015018046923	But how about a little Literature and Art?"
mdp.39015018046923	But how?
mdp.39015018046923	But if he did, what would this mad mass of black children do to him?
mdp.39015018046923	But now her son looked at her and said: “ Why Ireland?
mdp.39015018046923	But see heah, Bud, when I gits up there, know what ah aims to do?
mdp.39015018046923	But she had not mentioned it,-or had she?
mdp.39015018046923	But suppose he could and did fight?
mdp.39015018046923	But the point was, was there any chance of straightening the thing out?
mdp.39015018046923	But was there not hope?
mdp.39015018046923	But what I wants to know is this: after we stop this stealing, is that going to do away with poverty?"
mdp.39015018046923	But what else could he do?
mdp.39015018046923	But what of the future?
mdp.39015018046923	But where is Dr. Baldwin?
mdp.39015018046923	But where was he going?
mdp.39015018046923	But- I wonder, could I just have a word with the Colonel?
mdp.39015018046923	Can Hampton swing the plant- érs?
mdp.39015018046923	Can you tell us he Tom Mansart what we wrd of a gentleher word of As had been own good that on the and with is honest and will do what he says?
mdp.39015018046923	Come and help. ” “ How are you going to handle the Negroes in the South today?"
mdp.39015018046923	Could not men with brains see that this movement was the culmination of government of Business, by Business and for Business?
mdp.39015018046923	Could they possibly be?
mdp.39015018046923	Did He ever exist?
mdp.39015018046923	Did anybody hear of East or West In- dians voting?
mdp.39015018046923	Did anything good exist?
mdp.39015018046923	Did he blame her?
mdp.39015018046923	Did he think he, a white man, was going to sit down and bargain with a"nigger?"
mdp.39015018046923	Did it not miracuously decrease expense and by elimi- nating senseless competition enormously increase profits?
mdp.39015018046923	Did the Fiji cannibals or the Chinese coolies elect members of Parliament to make laws for the British aristocracy to live under?
mdp.39015018046923	Difficult?
mdp.39015018046923	Do they expect me to promise to let them vote and hold office?
mdp.39015018046923	Do you hear? ” He swung about and glared at Mansart.
mdp.39015018046923	Do you really think our condition is mostly because of laziness and stealing or more because of injustice of landowners and police?"
mdp.39015018046923	Do you understand now?".
mdp.39015018046923	Dr. Baldwin smiled at this situation and wondered what his students would say; and his wife?
mdp.39015018046923	Eventually- perhaps; but what now?
mdp.39015018046923	First, dare I say that you must not blame God too much in these awful days?
mdp.39015018046923	Follow what?
mdp.39015018046923	For what?
mdp.39015018046923	Further west or north to real emancipation?
mdp.39015018046923	Git kilt and go to Hell?
mdp.39015018046923	Had Breckin- ridge invited him, too?
mdp.39015018046923	Had she told him The World and Mrs. Breckinridge 77 anything?
mdp.39015018046923	Had this been gain or irrep- arable loss?
mdp.39015018046923	Have not seers seen in Heaven's halls?
mdp.39015018046923	Have you been watching Africa?
mdp.39015018046923	He ached to work with them, but how?
mdp.39015018046923	He began: “ I beg your pardon, Colonel Breckinridge, ” he said, “ could I have a word with you?"
mdp.39015018046923	He had failed in almost everything, but how and why?
mdp.39015018046923	He held it before him, but did not read; he recited from memory, from bitter memory: Wherefore do we pray?
mdp.39015018046923	He is a physician and a man of property. ”"You vouch for him?"
mdp.39015018046923	He looked Tom straight in the eye and said, “ I'm voting for Hampton. ”"Why? ” asked Tom.
mdp.39015018046923	He paused and sat still; his face hardened and he said curtly,"Well? ” “ Mr.
mdp.39015018046923	He said finally, as he turned back to it, “ But Spence, why on earth did you leave your profes- sorship to come down here and teach Negroes?"
mdp.39015018046923	He said the Colonel had not yet arrived; could she say if he was coming to the meeting and when?
mdp.39015018046923	He simply entered the gate and said:"Mr. Watson, may I have a word with you?"
mdp.39015018046923	He wondered how many Negro leaders really understood the game?
mdp.39015018046923	Her forebears had been nobles under the Roi Soliel in the 17th cen- tury; they had met disaster and even poverty in the 18th, but what difference?
mdp.39015018046923	His daring to come here?"
mdp.39015018046923	His mother whispered: mayor, governor, senator- what not?
mdp.39015018046923	How could he even think of such a thing?
mdp.39015018046923	How could he have acted differently, knowing what little he did?
mdp.39015018046923	How could he help?
mdp.39015018046923	How had he ever come to such a pass?
mdp.39015018046923	How in God's name could this be explained to the Colonel?
mdp.39015018046923	How long could a black man live in a world like this?
mdp.39015018046923	How long will it be before the hateful epithets of ‘ nigger'and'Jim- Crow'are openly applied to these sections?
mdp.39015018046923	How many babies had she brought into the world?
mdp.39015018046923	How much do you want for it?"
mdp.39015018046923	How much had black blood and black ways and black music contributed to this state and its civilization?
mdp.39015018046923	How should he approach the Colonel?
mdp.39015018046923	How was he to get funds for a new Negro schoolhouse and equipment and salaries for at least three teachers needed to teach 300 children?
mdp.39015018046923	How would I be received in the South? ”"Well, ” said Grady,"both of you must remember one thing.
mdp.39015018046923	How would it do-> “ Say, Mansart, could you bring your quartet to Princeton?"
mdp.39015018046923	How would you like to go into business?"
mdp.39015018046923	I am going to publish this year a criticism of Washington and his philosophy. ”"You'll attack him?"
mdp.39015018046923	I blame ourselves, poor miserable sinners that we are, ”"Do n't you think, then, that we ought to get busy and stop sinning?"
mdp.39015018046923	I t Old Dr. Baldwin and His Family 159"Greek? ” said the old man.
mdp.39015018046923	I wonder- I do not pretend to be sure, but I wonder- if a sounder alliance could not be made with the Negroes?
mdp.39015018046923	I'd like to see him. ” And to himself,"What on earth can a pupil of D'Ooge find to do here?"
mdp.39015018046923	If he wins with white votes what will we do?
mdp.39015018046923	If the Colonel received this Negro at his front door what would the Poor White think?
mdp.39015018046923	If the Negroes sold their land where would they go?
mdp.39015018046923	In that case, how would he and the others know what her situation had been; what had happened?
mdp.39015018046923	Is not God of the fathers dead?
mdp.39015018046923	It hurt him to do this, but what point was there in keeping them?
mdp.39015018046923	It was his duty to challenge him, and he called out in an uncertain voice:"Who goes there?"
mdp.39015018046923	John must meet him. ”"Meet whom?"
mdp.39015018046923	Just what is Business, anyway?
mdp.39015018046923	Land?
mdp.39015018046923	Mansart, why do n't you talk to Breckinridge?"
mdp.39015018046923	May git jailed?
mdp.39015018046923	Might it not happen that they would meet increasingly bitter opposition?
mdp.39015018046923	My na “ And what do you expect it to bring you? ”"Schools, homes, no convict lease, decent wages and land."
mdp.39015018046923	Nightmares?
mdp.39015018046923	No'nigger'is ever going to vote in At- lanta, Georgia! ”"Even if it costs another riot?"
mdp.39015018046923	Not only for public elementary schools but even more, support for the higher schools on which the lower must depend?
mdp.39015018046923	Not the new strivers but the old quality?
mdp.39015018046923	Not, surely to this house and at this time?
mdp.39015018046923	Now what we have asked ourselves is where is we going to find all this?
mdp.39015018046923	Of course, he had heard of this 34 THE ORDEAL OF MANSART ert Eilang?
mdp.39015018046923	One could, of course, see the Color Line as whites filled the auditorium and blacks a part of the gallery; but what of that?
mdp.39015018046923	One great industrialist said, “ The public be damned! ” Another added, “ If a workman sticks up his head, hit itl ” Another: “ Law?
mdp.39015018046923	One whispered: “ A'nigger'from Georgia?
mdp.39015018046923	Or better, killed and her death laid to the “ niggers. ” What would quicker unite the whites and seal the bargain?
mdp.39015018046923	Or had she?

mdp.39015018046923	Or was it not possible that falling out among them- selves,( for after all, what did they have in common but greed and delusions of grandeur?
mdp.39015018046923	Pierce plunged into his subject: “ The riot was a terrible thing, was n't it, Doctor?"
mdp.39015018046923	Pierce, have you visited a Negro col- lege and examined its work?
mdp.39015018046923	Remember what the city did to those Negro physi- cians and teachers who bought and built on Boulevard?
mdp.39015018046923	Roosevelt recoiled from recogni- tion of them, but could he refuse to appoint any Negroes?
mdp.39015018046923	Schools?
mdp.39015018046923	Scroggs?
mdp.39015018046923	She did not start to talk as she had planned but said, as she held his hands: “ Have I lain here long?"
mdp.39015018046923	She listened calmly and after a pause said:"You do n't like Atlanta?"
mdp.39015018046923	She paused until the gate closed and then said: “ I wonder if that was necessary? ”.
mdp.39015018046923	Should Negroes continue to hold the balance of power in the Republican organization?
mdp.39015018046923	Should he knock Scroggs down?
mdp.39015018046923	Should he slam his fist into this black ape's face?
mdp.39015018046923	Should he walk boldly up the front steps, or should he enter the gate and knock at the side door?
mdp.39015018046923	Sing or dance?
mdp.39015018046923	Sup- pose by some miracle he became rich in the phantasmagoria of national revolution- what good, what end?
mdp.39015018046923	Suppose for a moment both sets of workers, black and white, should join against Property and Civilization?
mdp.39015018046923	Suppose – and it was possible – that she had told him nothing; that she had had no time to talk before she fainted?
mdp.39015018046923	THE ORDEAL OF MANSART"But my dear, is the difference so great as you assume?
mdp.39015018046923	The Colonel asked his usual question: “ Betty Lou is not with us? ”"She may come in later."
mdp.39015018046923	The Colonel regarded her uneasily and said:"Well?"
mdp.39015018046923	The Three Musketeers to settle the Negro Problem- Boys, is it a deal?"
mdp.39015018046923	The decision could hardly be final; for after all, did they understand what the Negroes were thinking about?
mdp.39015018046923	The governor was silent and Tom went on: “ And if injustice is the real cause, what are we going to do about it?
mdp.39015018046923	The owners, or a committee of slaves? ”"What Mansart asks is that men like you guarantee them just rights.
mdp.39015018046923	The same thought was in his mind: How could he hold his position if he married a girl half of his age and became father of a child a few months later?
mdp.39015018046923	The small nucleus of gentlemen or the mill- owners and railway owners, the bankers?
mdp.39015018046923	The whites have strongly advised that Washington acquire my services. ”"For what?"
mdp.39015018046923	Then he growled: “ What the hell are you celebrating?"
mdp.39015018046923	Then why complain?
mdp.39015018046923	There have been Negro Col- lectors in New Orleans and Galveston and there is one in Atlanta now. ” “ Do you know a good man?"

mdp.39015018046923	They want the guidance of Southern aristocracy, and they want your word to bind the bargain. ” “ What bargain?
mdp.39015018046923	They who had much to lose had nearly lost all; but what of them who had nothing to lose- of a man like Mansart?
mdp.39015018046923	They would not go very far, or if a few of them did, what of it?
mdp.39015018046923	Thine hearsed and lifeless form stark amidst the black and rolling smoke of sin, where all along bow bitter forms of endless dead?
mdp.39015018046923	This, Sir, is worth even a bit of ancient ceremony and – mummery, as you call it, is it not?"

mdp.39015018046923	Was fear of poverty making him a liar, or was he acting from high principle?
mdp.39015018046923	Was he being double- crossed as he always suspected he might be?
mdp.39015018046923	Was he being forced to bear a double burden of shame?
mdp.39015018046923	Was he so sure as he used to be that Negroes were all fools and apes?
mdp.39015018046923	Was ids the ghost bit she did not saya Mansart into your protection- I did tell you about it, did n't I?
mdp.39015018046923	Was it Atlanta?
mdp.39015018046923	Was it imagination that she thought she saw through her half- closed lids the ghost of fear and almost con- sternation in those eyes?
mdp.39015018046923	Was it not time that"free and equal"Negroes supported themselves and their institutions?
mdp.39015018046923	Was it really his fault that Mansart was mur- dered horribly?
mdp.39015018046923	Was it so certain that the white world was going to rule everything?
mdp.39015018046923	Was someone trying to crowd him into lying simultaneously to both sides?
mdp.39015018046923	Was that not proof of the soundness of American business?
mdp.39015018046923	Was the United States to be a democracy and if so, how could the democratic process be carried out?
mdp.39015018046923	Was there any line of thought and action that was going to lead somewhere?
mdp.39015018046923	Was this Socialism?
mdp.39015018046923	Was this land, this beautiful land of his fathers, always to be cursed by black men?
mdp.39015018046923	Was this the champion of the laborer and small farmer?
mdp.39015018046923	Was this the man who had defended Doyle from lynchers?
mdp.39015018046923	Was this the truth or was this black man taking her out to the massed Negroes of the islands, to prison or worse?
mdp.39015018046923	We can vote the black millions even when they are free, if the North consents, and we have climate and resources. ” “ Yes, but which North?
mdp.39015018046923	Were they not taking their reports from stoolpigeons and wishful thinkers?
mdp.39015018046923	What can I do?"

uc1.b3470438	Did she tell you her name? ” “ She did, for I not only asked her that, but no end of other questions, I was that interested.
uc1.b3470438	Do n't you understand?
uc1.b3470438	Do n’t you think he will? ” “ I — I rather feel that he will.
uc1.b3470438	Do you imagine that he would be any happier than he is now, or than if he should never know? ” Ah, no!
uc1.b3470438	Do you re- member how you cried when I went away? ” “ It seems but yesterday, ” she murmured.
uc1.b3470438	Do you re- member my wife thirty years ago, judge? ” “ She was a very handsome woman, Ed, ” the other re- plied judicially.
uc1.b3470438	Do you want me to go? ” “ Of course not, dear; but what I want or think ca n’t matter.
uc1.b3470438	Does n’t such a course seem just a wee bit selfish?
uc1.b3470438	Free them all and keep them among us as underlings?
uc1.b3470438	Free them and make them politically and socially our equals?
uc1.b3470438	Get the idea, Rich- ard? ” “ Fully, though that will be hard on Molly.
uc1.b3470438	Getting all ready to fight with the War not started? ” “ It is in full blast in Charleston — and how badly they want to fight.
uc1.b3470438	Go ahead, Johnny, and say what you will. ” “ What is there left for me to say, after all you just said?
uc1.b3470438	Had God ordained the crime that the punishment might follow?
uc1.b3470438	Had not Rena compared her- self to the child's nurse, and had he not assured her that if she were the nurse, he would marry her the next day?
uc1.b3470438	Had not Walden told him distinctly that they were of no family, and was it not his fault that he had not followed up the clue thus given him?
uc1.b3470438	Had not the Missouri Com- promise been practically wiped out by the Omnibus Bill of 1850?
uc1.b3470438	Has your mother consented? ” “ She had to.
uc1.b3470438	He heard Blanche saying something, and with a start, turned to her with a: “ Did you address me?
uc1.b3470438	He is one of these many Negroes that would like to be white, perhaps he planned to go North somewhere and pass for white, who knows?
uc1.b3470438	He's a fine big man now and so industrious. ” “ Industrious?
uc1.b3470438	He's a free Negro, you know. ” “ A free Negro?
uc1.b3470438	He's disappeared! ” “ What do you mean, boy, disappeared? ” his father cried, grabbing him and forcing him to face him.
uc1.b3470438	He's stopping at the Fountain Hotel and will return to our house tonight again. ”"What mystery here?
uc1.b3470438	He's well and doing well, and sends his love to you, and hopes you ’ve not forgotten him. ” “ Forgot him?
uc1.b3470438	How comes this vast amount of property to be running about without own- ers?
uc1.b3470438	How could a big boy like Johnny just — disappear? ” “ That ’s how it happened, Mr. Fowler.
uc1.b3470438	How do you account for this lack? ” “ I ’ve studied that, too, and here is why they are cold to it.
uc1.b3470438	How had he been so blind as not to have read the character of this wretched girl who had bewitched him?
uc1.b3470438	How is that for a pedigree?
uc1.b3470438	How is this?
uc1.b3470438	How many others of his friends would do the same, if they but knew of it?
uc1.b3470438	How was he received? ” “ They raved about him.
uc1.b3470438	How was he to imagine that persons of their ap- pearances and pretentions were tainted with Negro blood?
uc1.b3470438	How would you like to lose your one child? ” “ Well, well, Mother.
uc1.b3470438	How? ” “ He ’s a carpenter and builder. ” “ In the footsteps of his father.
uc1.b3470438	I acknowledge no man in human form. ” “ What was your object in coming? ” “ I came to free the slaves, ” he said.
uc1.b3470438	I am willing to do anything to be somebody. ” “ But just why a lawyer?
uc1.b3470438	I did n't want to see her get to like a dark man, but what could I do?
uc1.b3470438	I mean, what procedure would have to be employed? ” “ That's simple enough.
uc1.b3470438	I regret to advise you, but he is. ” “ Now what ’re you talking about? ” “ About that boy ’s father.
uc1.b3470438	I surely will not blame them for not doing what I should not know how to do myself. ” Was this oratory?
uc1.b3470438	I think he can best tell me how to go about it; the best way and all that, you know. ” “ You think so? ” “ I am sure he will.
uc1.b3470438	I ’m sorry, I know you are right, and I hate to upset you. ” “ Then why do you? ” “ I do n’t know, I do n’t know.
uc1.b3470438	I ’m sorry. ”- “ Sorry?
uc1.b3470438	I, of course, am to provide these funds? ”.
uc1.b3470438	If I mis- take not, she has intelligence as well as beauty? ” 172 MAS QUERADE “ Yes, ” Molly sighed, sadly.
uc1.b3470438	If a man is noble and brave and strong, if a woman is beautiful and good and true, what matters it about his or her ancestry?
uc1.b3470438	If she had met mis- fortune before, what were her prospects for happiness now?

uc1.b3470438	If you are still interested in me as you once were, then what do you want me to do? ” “ I will answer your last suggestion first, Rena.
uc1.b3470438	In our present difference is either party without faith of being in the right?
uc1.b3470438	Is it possible then, to make that inter- course more advantageous or more satisfactory after sep- aration than before?
uc1.b3470438	Is it quite certain that this would better their condition?
uc1.b3470438	Is it sane to keep millions of men and wom- en in Slavery?
uc1.b3470438	Is it sane to suppress all who would cry out against this system?
uc1.b3470438	Is it sane to think that such a system can last?
uc1.b3470438	Is it true then, that any right, plainly written in the Constitution has been de- nied?
uc1.b3470438	Is there any better or equal hope in the world?
uc1.b3470438	Is there any mistaking it?
uc1.b3470438	Is there anything you want — money or what?
uc1.b3470438	It is an ambition. ” “ Have you talked to anybody else about — this ambition of yours? ” “ I have, ” the boy replied.
uc1.b3470438	Just a nice little colored boy, very mannerly and, for a Negro, intelligent too. ” “ Who does he belong to? ” “ To his mother.
uc1.b3470438	Knowing all this, and what you would have done had you known it before making love to, and marrying me, what do you think that I should have done?

uc1.b3470438	Miss Leary had no doubt that there was a woman at the bottom of it — for over what else should a youth worry but love?
uc1.b3470438	Naw, suh, he ai n’t in his office. ” “ Did you inquire of anybody when he'd be back? ” Dave's face fell.
uc1.b3470438	No doubt that seems to you a long time, young man? ” “ It is a long time, sir, ” Tryon replied.
uc1.b3470438	Now let's see, who's his father, since you say he belongs to his mother, and is a free issue? ” Judge Straight smiled.
uc1.b3470438	Now my master, what? ’ ”-- “ Oh, Rena, my sister, my child.
uc1.b3470438	Now where will we start? ” “ Just a word before you do, Johnny, ” she said, laying a hand on his wrist.
uc1.b3470438	Now why is this?
uc1.b3470438	Oh, boy! ” “ Yes'm? ” the messenger answered, looking back.
uc1.b3470438	On the old Wilmington Road in a place they call The House Behind The Cedars. ” “ That is near the Obermarks, is n’t it?
uc1.b3470438	On the right side of the road as you go out of town? ” “ Yes, sir. ” “ I ’ve noticed it.
uc1.b3470438	One party to a contract may violate it — break it, so to speak, but does it not require a vote of all to law- fully rescind it?
uc1.b3470438	Only on a wider scale, with a list of men, women and children butchered in their looted or burned homes?
uc1.b3470438	Or, if one's love affairs ran smoothly, why should one worry about anything at all?
uc1.b3470438	Regarding this, Abraham Lincoln, in a public speech shortly after, asked: “ Why was the decision held up?
uc1.b3470438	Sacrifices must be made, but if the world without love would be nothing, then why not give up the world for love?
uc1.b3470438	Secession. ” “ Secession?
uc1.b3470438	Shall I fetch him? ” “ Yes, bring him to me. ” He took the child in his arms and went out upon the pi- azza.
uc1.b3470438	Shall fugitives from labor be surrendered by National or State authority?
uc1.b3470438	She was an only child. ” “ You ’ll be gettin'married again, maybe? ” “ No, ” he replied.
uc1.b3470438	Slaves repeating the Nat Turner insurrec- tion?
uc1.b3470438	So one of old Duncan McSwayne's notes went so far as that?
uc1.b3470438	So what could I do?
uc1.b3470438	Suppose he had married me and then had found out? ” To Rena's argument of fore- ordination Walden at- tached no weight whatever.
uc1.b3470438	Sure enough?
uc1.b3470438	That is what I mean, and what is worrying me. ”- “ Is that all that is worrying you, Rena?
uc1.b3470438	The next reason was, Johnny, I'll try to be frank — I was afraid. ” “ Afraid?
uc1.b3470438	Then you feel at this time that it will be Douglas?
uc1.b3470438	There is a far more important one to you, and that is, what shall be done with the Free Negro?
uc1.b3470438	They asked for it. ” “ Do you think, before it is over, that they may call on us colored people, to help out?
uc1.b3470438	They seem to agree on and about everything. ” “ You would n't infer, that they are possibly — liking each other? ” “ They might be.
uc1.b3470438	To these, how- ever, who really love the Union, may I speak?
uc1.b3470438	Today he came to see me, and spoke these words forthwith:'Sir, I want to be a lawyer. ’ ” “ A lawyer? ” Northcross exclaimed, surprised.
uc1.b3470438	Turning to her son, “ would you like — a piece of rabbit, John?
uc1.b3470438	Versus who? ” “ Abraham Lincoln. ” “ Good Heavens, no! ” Archibald Straight shook his head sadly, but firmly.
uc1.b3470438	Very hard? ” “ Very hard, Judge.
uc1.b3470438	Was a slave revolt starting?
uc1.b3470438	Was he still living or had he died?
uc1.b3470438	Was it the devil working within him?
uc1.b3470438	Was not the real question whether the people should rule, whether the voters in a territory should con- trol their own affairs?
uc1.b3470438	Well, she must have said something, one way or another. ” “ I told her that I was going to talk to you about it. ” “ Oh, you did?
uc1.b3470438	Well, today he called. ” “ Yes? ” from Northcross, a bit anxiously.
uc1.b3470438	What about that? ”-* “ That ’s what Abraham Lincoln said; but Abraham Lin- coln is only a politician.
uc1.b3470438	What are you doing here?
uc1.b3470438	What did she say? ” “ She did n’t say. ” “ What do you mean.
uc1.b3470438	What do you mean, anyhow? ” “ Teacher got los ’ in de swamp night befo'las ’, ‘ cause Plato wa'nt dere to show her de way out'n de woods.

uc1.b3470438	What hap- pened and how?
uc1.b3470438	What horrible fate was it that had involved him — nay, that had caught this sweet, delicate girl in such a blind alley?
uc1.b3470438	What is it now, David? ” his ques- tion was sharp and his eyes were hard on the boy.
uc1.b3470438	What is that something?
uc1.b3470438	What is your name, child, and where were you brought up?
uc1.b3470438	What kind of work?
uc1.b3470438	What kind of work? ” “ She keeps his books, works out his estimates for new construction.
uc1.b3470438	What now? ” “ I ’m still thinking about that boy. ” “ Johnny Northcross? ” “ And that ’s his name? ” “ Of course.
uc1.b3470438	What now? ” “ I ’m still thinking about that boy. ” “ Johnny Northcross? ” “ And that ’s his name? ” “ Of course.

uc1.b3470438	What's the matter? ” “ The matter, Mother!
uc1.b3470438	When shall it be, dear?
uc1.b3470438	Where did he go?
uc1.b3470438	Where did you get the becoming a lawyer idea, anyhow? ” “ It is not an idea.
uc1.b3470438	Which way? ” Della pointed to the right.
uc1.b3470438	Who will it be?
uc1.b3470438	Whom did Judge Straight drive into the country to see?
uc1.b3470438	Whom do you live with? ” “ My mother, Mis ’ Molly Northcross. ” “ I see, ” the Judge mused.
uc1.b3470438	Why ask us to do what you will not do yourselves?
uc1.b3470438	Why can not it exist on the same principles on which our fathers made it?
uc1.b3470438	Why did you refuse him? ” “ I did not refuse him, Johnny.
uc1.b3470438	Why did you wish to wait a week, however? ” “ I felt that I should talk to you about it first.
uc1.b3470438	Why have you let it develop?
uc1.b3470438	Why should I seek the society of people whose friendship — and love — one little word can turn to scorn?
uc1.b3470438	Why the delay for reargument?
uc1.b3470438	Why the incoming Pres- ident ’s advance exhortation in favor of the decision?
uc1.b3470438	Will you be able to look them over today?
uc1.b3470438	Will you go with me? ” “ Yes, ” she answered, knowing that she was lying, but she was by now resigned to whatever was going to happen.
uc1.b3470438	Will you hazard so desperate a step while there is any possibility that any portion of the ills you fly from have no real existence?
uc1.b3470438	Will you join with us to drive it from the face of the earth? ” The response was terrific.
uc1.b3470438	Will you not grant me one interview?
uc1.b3470438	Wo n't you set down in de private office an ’ wait fo ’ ‘ i m, suh? ” Tryon had not slept well during his journey and felt somewhat fatigued.
uc1.b3470438	Would George Tryon do the same things in regards her?
uc1.b3470438	Would God have made hearts to yearn for one another if He had meant them to stay forever apart?
uc1.b3470438	Would it last until she died?
uc1.b3470438	Would it not be wise to say plainly that he would n’t interfere?
uc1.b3470438	Would she ever return?
uc1.b3470438	Would the next news tell of rebellion?
uc1.b3470438	Would you involve all of us in difficulties merely to secure your own peace of mind?
uc1.b3470438	W’at was dat you say? ” “ Why are you not at school today? ” “ Ain ’ got no teacher, Mistah Geo'ge.

uc1.b3470438	You know her, do n't you?
uc1.b3470438	You know who I mean, do n’t you, judge? ” “ Yes, I think so, ” the judge said promptly.
uc1.b3470438	You know, and I know, and George Wendell Tryon knows that I can not confess our secret to him, so what?
uc1.b3470438	You mean that the Southern States might — secede from the Union?
uc1.b3470438	You must do as they ask you to. ” “ But what about you, Frank?
uc1.b3470438	You wo n’t deny that — to me? ” “ No, Archibald, ” Richard Northcross replied rising to his feet.
uc1.b3470438	You wo n’t fin ” him. ” “ Maybe he — might have gone to see Della, the Conjure Woman? ” “ He did n’t believe in Conjurism.
uc1.b3470438	“ Ah wonduh, ” she murmured, “ whut ole Jedge Straight c’n be writin ’ tu me ‘ bout?
uc1.b3470438	“ And I’spose you ’re happy, Johnny? ” his mother ad- vanced when he stopped talking.
uc1.b3470438	“ And are you glad to see me, Mother? ”- “ Am I glad to see you?
uc1.b3470438	“ And are you glad to see me, Mother? ”- “ Am I glad to see you?

uc1.b3470438	“ And now, praise be to the Lord, you are somebody, ai n't you Johnny?
uc1.b3470438	“ And she's really a colored girl? ” from Blanche.
uc1.b3470438	“ And you are visiting your mother? ” “ Not exactly.
uc1.b3470438	“ And you married into a good family? ” “ And have a child. ” “ A — boy? ” Walden nodded affirmatively, and smiled with pride.
uc1.b3470438	“ And you married into a good family? ” “ And have a child. ” “ A — boy? ” Walden nodded affirmatively, and smiled with pride.
uc1.b3470438	“ And you think you were acting righteously? ” “ Yes, my friends, righteously.
uc1.b3470438	“ And, where do you live, Johnny? ” He decided not to let the boy think or feel that he knew who his father was, nor anything that went with it.
uc1.b3470438	“ Anything wanted, Dave? ” he asked.
uc1.b3470438	“ Are you really colored? ” the lady turned to her to ask, after the last child had left the room.
uc1.b3470438	“ Are you sure you do n't care, Mama? ” she asked, hoping and yet doubting.
uc1.b3470438	“ But — what do you mean, just gone, Molly?
uc1.b3470438	“ Ca n't I go to town fo you atter I ’ve seed her home, Mistah Geo'ge? ” He waited anxiously to hear Tryon's re- action to this suggestion.
uc1.b3470438	“ Ca n't you see what will happen to our people; I mean our people still in slavery?
uc1.b3470438	“ Can we not know each other for a little while? ” she asked.
uc1.b3470438	“ Can you read writin ’? ” “ No’m. ” “ All right.
uc1.b3470438	“ Can you tell me who lives there? ” and he jerked his thumb over his shoulder at the house they were just leav- ing.
uc1.b3470438	“ Does Mis ’ Molly Northcross live here? ” “ Yes, ” was the guarded answer.
uc1.b3470438	“ Does she go to church or anywhere else with Jeff Wain, Plato?, ” Tryon asked.
uc1.b3470438	“ Frank Fow- ler, eh? ” “ Yes.
uc1.b3470438	“ Gone where?
uc1.b3470438	“ Hello, Plato, ” Tryon called, “ do you want a lift? ” “ Sure, Mars'Geo'ge.
uc1.b3470438	“ How do you feel about it, Archibald? ” “ Well, I think he should have assistance in his ambition.
uc1.b3470438	“ How much do you love me? ”- 228 MASQUERADE “ I love you all one can love.

uc1.b3470438	“ Is Rena here? ” he demanded breathlessly.
uc1.b3470438	“ Is he married? ” “ There you go again, ” her husband replied, shaking his forefinger at her in mock reproach.
uc1.b3470438	“ Is he sick — or in — trouble? ” She was so excited that she forgot to invite the smiling and pleasant stranger inside for the moment.
uc1.b3470438	“ Is he well off, Ed? ” she asked her husband in an anxious whisper.
uc1.b3470438	“ Is there anything the matter with him? ” “ No, not exactly.
uc1.b3470438	“ Is there such perfect identity of interests among the States to compose a new Union, as to produce harmony only, and prevent renewed secession?
uc1.b3470438	“ Is your teacher white? ” “ No, ma'am, she ai n’t white; she's black.
uc1.b3470438	“ My — what? ”- Judge Straight shook his head, patiently.
uc1.b3470438	“ Now, beautiful Rena, is that what you want to happen to her?
uc1.b3470438	“ Oh, Plato? ” she asked.
uc1.b3470438	“ Oh, Rena, you look just like a white girl. ” “ Did your wife leave any kin? ” she asked Johnny, cautiously, carefully, but with some effort.
uc1.b3470438	“ Oh, you did, Mother?
uc1.b3470438	“ Rena, darling, ” her lover said, “ when shall it be?
uc1.b3470438	“ Says who?

uc1.b3470438	“ Very well, would you not be willing, for his sake — to keep a secret — your secret and mine and that of the innocent child in your arms?
uc1.b3470438	“ Well, Judge, had you for- mulated any plans? ” “ I have, which follow.
uc1.b3470438	“ Well, Rena, ” he said to his sister when he went home at noon: “ I ’ve sounded George. ” “ What did he say? ” she asked, eagerly.
uc1.b3470438	“ Well, ” he began, “ Young man, what can I do for you? ” John Northcross crossed the room then and paused.
uc1.b3470438	“ What are they saying about Lincoln down there? ” “ Just about everything.

uc1.b3470438	“ When did he last talk with you about it, dear? ” “ Last night, Johnny. ” “ My poor, dear child, ” he began, with deep sympathy.
uc1.b3470438	“ When did you last see my son? ” she inquired of him now, nervously anxious.
uc1.b3470438	“ Who is you? ” she said, peering up at him closely.
uc1.b3470438	“ Who sent you here? ” they asked.
uc1.b3470438	“ Who ’s it fer? ” she asked.
uc1.b3470438	“ Who ’s it frum? ” she inquired, turning the envelope over and over, and examining it with the impotent curi- osity of one who can not read.
uc1.b3470438	“ Who ’s there? ” “ A gentleman, ” came back the answer, then a pause.
uc1.b3470438	“ Why have you stopped here? ” “ Did n't yuh wish tu see de doctuh? ” the driver asked.

uc1.b3470438	“ Will he or will he not? ” Walden asked himself.
uc1.b3470438	“ Will you permit it? ” The street shook with voices en masse: “ No!
uc1.b3470438	“ Will you stay with the ladies awhile, or go back down- town with me? ” “ I think I had better go with you, sir.
uc1.b3470438	“ Will you therefore turn around and drive me there? ” “ Yassuh, yassuh!
uc1.b3470438	“ Will you wait for me here, George, or will you drive on down to the office?
uc1.b3470438	“ Yas, Misses? ” Plato replied, prancing around the buggy in great glee, on the strength of his acquaintance with the white folks.
uc1.b3470438	“ Yassuh? ” Dave replied, waking quickly and hustling to his feet, stood before the doctor.
uc1.b3470438	“ You love your children, Mother? ”- “ They ’re all I ’ve got, ” she sobbed, “ and they cos ’ me all I had.

miun.abr7583.0001.001	Ought to be able to trace the murderer awful quick, do n't you think, ma'am? miun.abr7583.0001.001 Perhaps he's going to propose,"thought Maggie innocently enraptured,"would n't that be great?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Peter Bye? miun.abr7583.0001.001 Peter and- and me?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Peter, you are n't ashamed of me?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Peter,she said thoughtfully,"what do you want to do when you grow up?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Play that passage again, will you?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Remember you said you wanted to hear Aida? miun.abr7583.0001.001 Say, how'd Maggie Ellersley get into this?

miun.abr7583.0001.001	Take what, that hard? miun.abr7583.0001.001 Tell me about it, Miss Maggie; some of them tony fellers bothering you to marry them?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	That so? miun.abr7583.0001.001 That's the best accompanist you've ever had, is n't it, Tom?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	They were wonderful days, were n't they? miun.abr7583.0001.001 Thinkin'I ai n't so bad maybe, Miss Maggie?"

miun.abr7583.0001.001	What difference does that make? miun.abr7583.0001.001 What do I care?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	What do we do to- morrow?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	What do you mean, Peter?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	What do you mean?

miun.abr7583.0001.001	Funny how she went off and married without telling any of us about it, was n't it?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	God, could n't you let him come back?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Goodness, what are you frowning about?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Got a knife?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Great Scott, are-we here?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Had it ever been true?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Had there ever been any silences?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Harry Portor- do you remember him?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Has Tom been unkind to you?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Has he got another wife?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Has- er- Sylvia said anything to you about me?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Have you a large soft handkerchief?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Have you seen my brown cape?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	He threw himself across the bed and groaned"Joanna, how could you?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	He used to go skating with us, did n't he?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	He's Mr. H. Neal ai n't he?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	He's a dentist now, is n't he?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Heavens, does n't Sylvia sometimes do sewing?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Honest?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How could I what?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How could it be possible that she, Joanna Marshall, was meeting with rebuffs?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How could she endure it?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How did you come to know so much- did your father tell you?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How he learned to read wise books borrowed and bought as best he might?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How long have you been alone, Maggie?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How long, Joanna?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How much would any decent man be interested in her after that?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How old is Peter?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How soon do you want to go?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How would this man sway the people?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How'd I sing, Peter?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How'd you come to get it?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How'd you come to think of it?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How'd you ever get in, then?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How'd you ever make it?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How'd you guess it was he?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How'd you know all this, Vera?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How'd you like to live in a little house- not like this!-in Washington?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How'll she get them made over though, Sylvia?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How'll you get the stagepresence?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How'll you like that?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How's Philip?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How's that accent, Bertully?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How's your husband?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	How- how would you like to spend your future with me?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	I make money enough for you, do n't I, girl?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	I mean is n't it great to see somebody from home?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	I thought your train got in at four?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	I work in the office of Mr. Marshall, the caterer; you know him?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Iceberg or angel?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	If all I needed to get on the stage was the mastery of a difficult step, I'd get there, would n't I?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	If they want the janitor it's'Where's that darky?'
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Is he an escaped convict?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Is it in this house?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Is n't it funny that he does n't realize that?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Is n't it great being grown up?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Is n't it great for him?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Is n't she a genius?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Is n't that some compensation?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	It means- now- you see a bare tree in the winter time do n't you, and you do n't know what it is?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	It's different from what most men wear, is n't it?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Joanna and Philip romping all over the country; Sylvia and Brian married; Sandy too, did you know it?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Let's see, which one of the Byes was that?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Like to go out?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Look here, Maggie, what'd you drop us all that way for?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Love me, darling?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Maggie seeing his lips move would ask him interestedly:"What's the matter, Peter?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Maggie, have you seen Peter Pan?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Mamma, could n't the boys take us to the matinee?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Mammy, you're gon na help me to be great?'
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Marry me?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	May I ask how you horn in on this?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	May I ask how?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Mind if I smoke?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Neal?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Not ever Joanna's beau?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Now was she to write her again to give up Peter?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Now why?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Now you'll be in often, often, wo n't you?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Now, where'd I put that cap?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Of course,"tentatively,"you could n't consider being corked up- you're brown but you're too light as you are-and doing a break- down?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Off my money?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Oh, God, why did you let me do it?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Oh, Janna, how could you go off with him?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Oh, Joanna, are n't you too happy?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Oh, Maggie, how could you?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Oh, what was she to do?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Oh, you mean they worked in the fields?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Onless zey are all fools, these Americains, they take her up, hein Celeste?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Perhaps you'll sing in your choir?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Peter exclaimed inadequately,"do n't you do funny things when you're kids?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Peter- why look here, Joanna, did you see this?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Presently Peter would say:"Mind if I look over the paper a moment, Maggie?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Promise me that, wo n't you?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Reckon we've done our share of stayin'in the house in our time, ai n't we, Jinny?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Remember how suddenly she married Neal?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Remember what a bunch we were?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Say, little Missy, wo n't you marry me?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	See you at one- thirty?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	See?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Seems different since he started keeping company with Maggie, do n't you think so?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Shall we go, Monsieur?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	She had n't forgotten Philip's expression the day Sylvia had come rushing in with the astounding news:"What do you think?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	She was still the least bit bold in those days..,*~ X, THERE IS CONFUSION 43 THERE IS CONFUSION 43-"Ai n't he the best looker you ever saw, Sylvia?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	She went on quickly:"See here, you work somewhere down in this neighborhood, do n't you?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	So I rushed to a newspaper, Barney Kirchner is the manager- wasn't he one of Philip's friends?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	So he whispered,"Are you asleeep, Joanna?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Somebody told him of a good way to do this- why not get a job as train porter?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Sometimes I think I will drop it, then I think:'Oh, pshaw, what difference does it make?'
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Son's a realestate agent, ai n't he?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Sure you do n't like any of'em better than me?"

miun.abr7583.0001.001	That do n't console you much, does it?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	That does n't sound as though he had any serious feeling for you, does it?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	That poplin is old rose, is n't it?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	That's in Twenty- ninth Street, is n't it?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Then where'd I be?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	These people, according to their lights, must have considered themselves"people of importance,>"else why this careful record of dates?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	They've always paired off together, have n't they?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	They've waited a long time, have n't they?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Think Snyder'll give her anything?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	This is Peter, Peter Bye, you remember?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	To other children she said,"Gertrude, can you tell me about the Articles of Confederation?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Want me to show you your way around?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Want to see me about anything special?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Was n't it lovely and dear?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Was she free?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Was this why she had given him his freedom?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Was you asleep orwas you crying?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	We will not wear these conventional colors- grays, taupe, beige- poor boy, you do n't know what they are, do you?

miun.abr7583.0001.001	Why ca n't you be nicer to me?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Why do n't you stop for them?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Why had he never felt like that when Maggie, as she frequently did, rested her head on his shoulder?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Why had she not, thought of this?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Why not marry me?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Why should I take any more of their selfish dog- in- the- manger foolishness?
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Why should he be?"
miun.abr7583.0001.001	Why should n't I pick the job that comes handiest, since the world owes me a living?"

mdp.39015026712524	Who's this here, Judy? ” There was a friendly twinkle in her gray eyes. mdp.39015026712524 Why do n't you come to New York? ” Judy wrote.
mdp.39015026712524	Why do you throw'way them pieces? ” She pointed to some floating scraps of whitish meat which were being attacked by a cluster of minnows. mdp.39015026712524 Why fo'Marse Hugh want to see mah Missy?".

mdp.39015026712524	The determined set of her head?
mdp.39015026712524	Then he squinted at Joe and asked in low, cold tones: “ What kitty you talkin''bout?"
mdp.39015026712524	Then, after a moment: “ Well, what you say, gal? ” “ Yes'm — I mean, thank you, Mis'Liddy! ” Martha was tearfully grateful.

mdp.39015026712524	Was all her life to be cut to this dreary pattern?

mdp.39015026712524	Was not the year of the cen- tury's birth a gloriously appointed time for the salvag- ing of human souls?

mdp.39015013331627	And how could she teach social science today without touching upon Communism?
mdp.39015013331627	And then she asked, “ May I ask 71 72 WORLDS OF COLOR what you were thinking about?
mdp.39015013331627	And too, my dear friend, what the hell are you bellyaching about?
mdp.39015013331627	And what about the basic matter of earning a living?
mdp.39015013331627	And what is the attitude of American Negroes in general?"
mdp.39015013331627	And who in God's name ever heard of an educated young Negro settling in Mississippi?
mdp.39015013331627	And who was this God, anyhow, and where was He and what should we do about Him, while ignoring His existence most of the time?
mdp.39015013331627	And yet when Negroes sat down and took careful account, what had they won and lost?
mdp.39015013331627	And yet, if he and his folk were part of this wider world, how could he or they ever be really separate?
mdp.39015013331627	Are you advising me not to study Communism any further?"
mdp.39015013331627	As they rode Jean asked: “ After the uprising of the slaves, what happened?"
mdp.39015013331627	As they were leaving the restaurant, he asked: “ Have you seen Picasso's'Guernica'? ”.
mdp.39015013331627	But Dao?
mdp.39015013331627	But after that, WHAT?
mdp.39015013331627	But after that?
mdp.39015013331627	But are you quite fair to American Big Business?
mdp.39015013331627	But do you understand or try to under- stand what religion has meant to most of your people?
mdp.39015013331627	But have you ever thought that the Southern home never had space or a place for a kitchen, much as it needed kitchens?
mdp.39015013331627	But how, where and from whom?
mdp.39015013331627	But if they are in different social settings, what then?
mdp.39015013331627	But in what nation?
mdp.39015013331627	But now?
mdp.39015013331627	But pardon me, old friend, why the devil did n't you say your American guest was black?"
mdp.39015013331627	But politically we were in a strait- jacket, so that men were asking:'Where is the German fatherland?'
mdp.39015013331627	But then what?
mdp.39015013331627	But what bothers me is, what are black leaders going to do for the people of those countries?
mdp.39015013331627	But what in God's name does he want The Color of Europe 45 in West Africa?
mdp.39015013331627	But what is the future of the world's colonies?
mdp.39015013331627	But what other way has humanity yet discovered to advance but by way of aristocracy?
mdp.39015013331627	But what was that these days?
mdp.39015013331627	But what would he do at “ home ”?
mdp.39015013331627	But what would she do with that much?
mdp.39015013331627	But when all is said and done, what does it all add up to?
mdp.39015013331627	But where?
mdp.39015013331627	But while we wait, and schools linger, and people starve- in that little interval of a century or two- what shall we do, you and I?
mdp.39015013331627	But who gets it?
mdp.39015013331627	But why not take a chance?
mdp.39015013331627	But why not?
mdp.39015013331627	But why, why is so much of this unknown, hidden from the public? ”.
mdp.39015013331627	But, pardon me, Sir, if I ask where do you come in?
mdp.39015013331627	By sympathy, political support or by- espion- age?"
mdp.39015013331627	By that time, perhaps something better can be done. ” Then Wilson asked,"What about this Kent House which you mention?
mdp.39015013331627	Can Sterling Brown or Rayford Logan get a book in print even if it is a classic?".
mdp.39015013331627	Can even England pay?
mdp.39015013331627	Can he tell us anything we do n't know?"
mdp.39015013331627	Can we not improve it?
mdp.39015013331627	Can you see it?
mdp.39015013331627	Carmichael, with whom would you associate in my church?
mdp.39015013331627	Dear land, The Free North 125 long transport, high prices for materials and low prices for prod- uct- and God! ” “ God?"
mdp.39015013331627	Did you happen to see him?"
mdp.39015013331627	Do n't you see the amount of money that has been invested by whites around that church?
mdp.39015013331627	Do you re- member the oil marriage that was making the headlines just be- fore we left the West Coast?"
mdp.39015013331627	Do you realize the succession of blows that have prostrated this nation since?
mdp.39015013331627	Do you realize what happened to Germany at Versailles?
mdp.39015013331627	Do you think I am going to share my rule with darkies?
mdp.39015013331627	Do you think that I will even tolerate you Japanese monkeys in my back yard?
mdp.39015013331627	Educated?
mdp.39015013331627	Ehrenburg beamed upon her in his sort of enveloping and fatherly way and said,"Why not look at the Soviet Union before you return?"
mdp.39015013331627	Except for a certain similarity of color, what had his father in common with a Mississippi field- hand?
mdp.39015013331627	Grey come yet? ” “ No,"she said.
mdp.39015013331627	Grey?"
mdp.39015013331627	Had she gone to Atlanta by train?
mdp.39015013331627	Had we bettered this?
mdp.39015013331627	Has she been mur- dered and the bonds stolen? ”"That Dean got them bonds and sold them, ” said Jacobs.
mdp.39015013331627	Have you found out?"
mdp.39015013331627	Have you read what Trotsky is revealing?
mdp.39015013331627	He growled:"What the hell are we doing here?
mdp.39015013331627	He pointed to the vast plain:"Yonder the black slaves came, swept on like a hurricane; but what summoned them was the Wheel. ”"The Wheel?"
mdp.39015013331627	He said softly, “ Did you want some- thing?"
mdp.39015013331627	He was puzzled; was it that he did not look rich enough to be her quarry or had she mistaken him for another?
mdp.39015013331627	He would phone: “ May I speak to the passenger manager?
mdp.39015013331627	He'll present his bill for services rendered. ” “ Will it be paid? ”"Hell, no!
mdp.39015013331627	Heard how a great music hall is to be sold for room to exchange foodstuffs between the West Indies and New England?
mdp.39015013331627	Here was an imperial servant who did not eat with “ Niggers. ” Was this a mistake of Sir John's?
mdp.39015013331627	How about Mansart's son in New York? ” Mansart wrote to Revels and asked his help.
mdp.39015013331627	How about food?
mdp.39015013331627	How are your working classes progressing?
mdp.39015013331627	How can they when the cost is 20 cents? ” That was the beginning.
mdp.39015013331627	How can we rest and play?
mdp.39015013331627	How could a man who was bad be called good?
mdp.39015013331627	How could one of our greatest universities refuse to let Shostakovich give a concert on its campus?
mdp.39015013331627	How could you lie and tell the truth for the sake of the same God?
mdp.39015013331627	How could you love your enemies and refuse to speak to them on the street?
mdp.39015013331627	How could you turn the other cheek and fight for your country, right or wrong?
mdp.39015013331627	How far will that influence sift down to the fifteen million of the black rank and file?
mdp.39015013331627	How many Australian black men sweated to make her skirt?
mdp.39015013331627	How?
mdp.39015013331627	How?
mdp.39015013331627	I hear you're taking a sabbatical?
mdp.39015013331627	I take it that you do not think your people can help?"
mdp.39015013331627	I trust you understand, President Mansart? ” President Mansart said he did, and thanked her humbly.
mdp.39015013331627	I wonder if it will help renew them now?"
mdp.39015013331627	I wonder if the world will ever produce a power which will open the way for colonies really to become free?"
mdp.39015013331627	I wonder, however, if the mass of Africans are going to be better off?
mdp.39015013331627	If any nation furnishes arms to the blacks the end will come soon. ”"What nation will?"
mdp.39015013331627	If not, where?
mdp.39015013331627	If so, how and why?"
mdp.39015013331627	If that is true, then Miss Du Bignon will go to jail. ”"But can lying testimony be had and be believed?"
mdp.39015013331627	If they did n't like Joe's profession, why did n't they train him for another?
mdp.39015013331627	If this was true around New York, was it better in New England, the Middle West, or California?
mdp.39015013331627	If this were true, what was the reaction in the rest of the world?
mdp.39015013331627	If to balance this, the colored person sought letters or words of introduction, who in America would furnish them?
mdp.39015013331627	If we just had the hospitals and funds some nations have""But we have n't, ” said Manuel, opening his eyes, “ and after all what difference?
mdp.39015013331627	If you can get this place honestly, get it. ”"Is bribery honest? ” “ No, it is not.
mdp.39015013331627	Impossible?
mdp.39015013331627	In case then, and against all probabilities, he does win, what then?
mdp.39015013331627	In the Soviet Union?
mdp.39015013331627	Indeed, mulattoes, educated in Paris during the Seven Years'War, were often slave- owners. ”"Why was Ogé attacked?"
mdp.39015013331627	Is his wife white or colored?
mdp.39015013331627	Is it not so with you?"
mdp.39015013331627	Is it pique at being jilted by a white girl?
mdp.39015013331627	Is n't he a rabid enemy of our people?"
mdp.39015013331627	Is this necessary?
mdp.39015013331627	It was not enough to let her retire and why should she retire?
mdp.39015013331627	Jean said at Teachers'Prayer Meeting:"How shall Negroes vote next Fall- those who can vote?
mdp.39015013331627	Judge Mansart, is this no sound basis for revolt? ”"It might be, if conditions get worse.
mdp.39015013331627	Lady Rivers asked, to keep up conversation:"Mr. Mansart, what in England strikes you most?"
mdp.39015013331627	Looking about us here, how many people have time or training to enjoy a Titian painting or a great piece of statuary?"
mdp.39015013331627	May I call on you- from hiuddenly Curly hair Roosevelt Dies 207 perhaps tomorrow?"
mdp.39015013331627	Must they not be killed if Viet- Nam was ever to live?
mdp.39015013331627	Observe how stubbornly they fight over colonial trusteeships?"
mdp.39015013331627	Of course, he was not sure- could anybody be sure of anything in this damned world?
mdp.39015013331627	Of what use was reason and effort and his dream?
mdp.39015013331627	Often this made die- hard Southerners furious, but what could they do?
mdp.39015013331627	One finds real people there, do n't you think?"
mdp.39015013331627	One picture hung on the wall- what was it?
mdp.39015013331627	One thousand dollars?
mdp.39015013331627	Or if they admit my facts, they say: so what?
mdp.39015013331627	Or will this all be straightened out through blood and prayers and tears, Or will it just go on and on As long as there are years?"
mdp.39015013331627	Or, suppose this phase passed- where would friendship, neigh- borly intercourse or social recognition enter?
mdp.39015013331627	Otherwise what might not colonial labor demand?
mdp.39015013331627	Our free West?
mdp.39015013331627	Pass, Heil Hitler! ” “ Who? ” Hitler roared as the Japanese was ushered in.
mdp.39015013331627	Remember how he defended lynching in Congress?
mdp.39015013331627	Roosevelt wanted us to enter; but why?
mdp.39015013331627	Say at four in the afternoon?
mdp.39015013331627	Shall they treat each other as understanding friends or shall they rather ignore each other, or what path between was there?
mdp.39015013331627	Shall we help them out by building a black atomic bomb in our own insides?"
mdp.39015013331627	She hesitated and then blurted out: “ Did you know Bruce Mansart?"
mdp.39015013331627	She looked puzzled—“Guernica? ” He looked surprised and explained: “ You know, the Spanish town which was bombed."
mdp.39015013331627	She said, “ My dear, do you know what Kent House is?"
mdp.39015013331627	Should sep- arate trade unions be organized for Negroes, and a nation- wide Negro trade union movement be organized?
mdp.39015013331627	Still, why were Negroes fighting?
mdp.39015013331627	Suppose now you secure those bonds and put them in my hands for 24 hours?"
mdp.39015013331627	Suppose she should die in the night?
mdp.39015013331627	Suppose the Church finally decided to get rid of him and give him neither the bishopric nor even a decent pastorate?
mdp.39015013331627	Sylvia burst out:"Africa?
mdp.39015013331627	That leather belt around her slender waist- it must have brought tuberculosis and hunger to how many shacks among the gauchos of the Argentine?
mdp.39015013331627	The Bishop talked to Wilson about a church in the working districts, nearer “ the masses. ” Perhaps Wilson would like to transfer there?
mdp.39015013331627	The Judge said to himself, “ Where did I get my information about Russia?"
mdp.39015013331627	The Russian Jews had the foresight to join with the workers and forward the socialism of the world. ” “ Socialism? ” asked Mansart.
mdp.39015013331627	The consumers should pay more for goods?
mdp.39015013331627	The elders might stand this, but what of an eager youth of eighteen?
mdp.39015013331627	Then he came back to the United States, to his own people — where did they belong in this new phantasmagoria?
mdp.39015013331627	Then he turned to a fellow- traveller and said in halting German: “ Is not this the Lorelei and is not there a song?"
mdp.39015013331627	Then she whispered,"He is dead? ” 98 WORLDS OF COLOR “ Yes."
mdp.39015013331627	Then the same boy asked, “ Do you think it was right to send Ben Davis to jail?"
mdp.39015013331627	Then why the gloom?"
mdp.39015013331627	There remained only the question: Who will control the government?
mdp.39015013331627	There was aid for Turkey and Greece, or was it for control of oil in the Middle East- oil for war in face of the world cry for peace?
mdp.39015013331627	There was the tragedy at Dunkirk- but why?
mdp.39015013331627	There were rich and pretty colored girls to be found, but why spend time on such a quest?
mdp.39015013331627	They know too much of murder, ruin, devastation not to long for Peace. ” Viet- Nam?
mdp.39015013331627	They therefore tried to avoid white Americans like the plague, but where could they turn?
mdp.39015013331627	They whispered: what can a black town do in a white state where the blacks have no vote?
mdp.39015013331627	They'll worship the white rich and despise the black poor. ”"Well, I still do n't like it! ”"Neither do I, but what else can we do about it?
mdp.39015013331627	This black West Indian drove the British army out of San Domingo. ” “ But could Negro slaves oppose the British army? ” “ They did.

mdp.39015013331627	Was this not the place to teach truth?
mdp.39015013331627	We're scared stiff, and why?"
mdp.39015013331627	Were they not worthy to die?
mdp.39015013331627	What can I do for you, Miss —?".
mdp.39015013331627	What can we do?
mdp.39015013331627	What community wanted a Negro family, no matter what their status and character?
mdp.39015013331627	What could they do in this crisis?

mdp.39015013331627	You remember how your father helped my father settle in South Georgia?
mdp.39015013331627	You see it, do n't you?
mdp.39015013331627	“ Africa?
mdp.39015013331627	“ All right; but how much cash will be ‘ enough'?
mdp.39015013331627	“ Am I glad?
mdp.39015013331627	“ And God? ”"Well, at any rate, ” said Jean reflectively, “ and gods.
mdp.39015013331627	“ And his reward?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ And what are they going to fight for? ” he asked in despair.
mdp.39015013331627	“ And you aim to raise Africa against all its mighty oppressors? ” asked Adelbert.
mdp.39015013331627	“ And you, Sir, what did you do that these mines and these miners should work for you?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ And, ” asked a girl,"would you make the number of sane people large or moderate? ” Jean's eyes became vague and she almost forgot the class.
mdp.39015013331627	“ Any colored folks treated in these Springs?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ Are you Catholic? ” he asked.
mdp.39015013331627	“ Are you the proprietor of this shop?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ Are you trying to say, Mr. Reeves, that your members will not serve God beside Negroes?".
mdp.39015013331627	“ Beauty?
mdp.39015013331627	“ Boy, ” he said,"where'd you buy that uniform? ” The boy, somewhat taken aback, answered suspiciously.
mdp.39015013331627	“ But do we really have to plunge into the world labor problem and the inextricable tangles of Asia and Africa?
mdp.39015013331627	“ But do we? ” insisted Sylvia.
mdp.39015013331627	“ But see here, how about the church?
mdp.39015013331627	“ But there was surely much real philanthropy in England?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ But why, why?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ Byrnes?
mdp.39015013331627	“ Could we not try her for the summer semester?
mdp.39015013331627	“ Do they pay you well?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ Do you think Socialism will win? ” “ Will win?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ Do you think Socialism will win? ” “ Will win?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ Do you think of returning to America at some time? ” asked Mansart.
mdp.39015013331627	“ Do you think we ought to let the Dean know?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ Does anyone really believe that Communism is an international conspiracy and that Russia is planning to destroy us?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ For whom?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ Heard nothing from her?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ How can we get'honest civil servants of high ideals'?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ I am amazed- I can not believe that in either case--"“ In a life and death struggle will Negroes ask or care who sends them arms?
mdp.39015013331627	“ I expect you do not remember me, Sir?
mdp.39015013331627	“ I had, but what of it?
mdp.39015013331627	“ I know, but why did n't he start business among Negroes, and not compete with white merchants?".
mdp.39015013331627	“ I'm wondering if Mr. Mansart would not like to drive up to London tomorrow and lunch at my club?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ In fact, it has been in Spain. ”"Spain?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ In what way?
mdp.39015013331627	“ Is it?
mdp.39015013331627	“ Is n't it still?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ Is that Communism?
mdp.39015013331627	“ It is the result of law. ” “ Who makes the law?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ John, have you by chance noticed the daily quotations on these particular oil bonds?".
mdp.39015013331627	“ Listen, John, ” she said, “ I want you to take those bonds and give them to me. ” “ And go to jail for theft? ”"Certainly not.
mdp.39015013331627	“ Madame who?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ May I enter? ” he asked, smiling.
mdp.39015013331627	“ My god, is she dead? ” cried the brown boy, leaping up.
mdp.39015013331627	“ Not only in these ways, but by- revolt?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ Now, what is it you want?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ Recall 1940?
mdp.39015013331627	“ Right- and why?
mdp.39015013331627	“ So that is why he's not here today?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ Was n't that tip enough?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ What is this America to which we all crawl?
mdp.39015013331627	“ What the Hell was he talking about?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ What's the old buffer driving at?
mdp.39015013331627	“ What, Mr. Mansart, is your attitude toward Africa?
mdp.39015013331627	“ Where were you last night? ” “ I was in Atlanta talking to the Bishop of the Diocese. ” “ Planning this fire?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ Where were you last night? ” “ I was in Atlanta talking to the Bishop of the Diocese. ” “ Planning this fire?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ Why not?
mdp.39015013331627	“ Will go the way of Indo- China. ” “ But will France ever surrender Indo- China? ”"She will.
mdp.39015013331627	“ Will you touch her on the shoulder?"
mdp.39015013331627	“ Would it not be wiser and better to say,'I do not know'or'I do not hope?'
mdp.39015013331627	“ Yes, sir, I'm helping the President's valet. ”"Pretty good job?"
mdp.39015011340141	Abe, ” he said, “ what will the Grand Jury do with those d- beasts? mdp.39015011340141 Do not what? ” said Malcolm.
mdp.39015011340141	Malcolm, suppose I tell you just what I have done, will that not make you a party to ny crime, or whatever you may call it?
mdp.39015011340141	Mr. Overley, ” said Dr. Donewell, “ what do you expect to do after you have kept your vow? mdp.39015011340141 'Spec'Mars Abe cumin'to see yo ’ heah? mdp.39015011340141 '” “ Well, what would you say to that? ” asked Malcolm. mdp.39015011340141 11 an ’ sick, habe he crowded my Abe from he own mammy's breast? mdp.39015011340141 143 to a neck of ten feet in width? mdp.39015011340141 185 After Abe's departure, Malcolm soliloquized: “ Why was Abe not made white the same as I am? mdp.39015011340141 29'nigger marrying white'oman,'an'de debble knows what- all sich fool talk dat causes trouble? mdp.39015011340141 A.? ” asked Draper; “ what put that into your head? mdp.39015011340141 A.? ” asked Draper; “ what put that into your head? mdp.39015011340141 Abe, d — your black hide, have you nothing to say? mdp.39015011340141 Abe, do you remem- ber —“ Do I remember?

mdp.39015011340141	Abe, would yer? ” “ Did you ever see this horse trace before? ” asked Abe, holding the trace before Tim's eyes.
mdp.39015011340141	Abe,"continued Mal- colm, as they clasped hands, “ what can I. do now to help you?"
mdp.39015011340141	After Buck had related his version of why he was expelled, this virtuous(?)
mdp.39015011340141	After Malcolm had finished the narration, the Doctor instructed him to have Abe come to him at once, and that he would impose the further burden(?)
mdp.39015011340141	After bending over her for a moment, he said: “ You fellows have raised h- now, have n't you?
mdp.39015011340141	Ai n't that right, fellers? ” “ Sho'yer is, ” spoke up Si Weedles;"an'anybody thet do n't lek them officers, we puts out.

mdp.39015011340141	Am I not a craven that I do not avenge her?
mdp.39015011340141	Am I right nohow?
mdp.39015011340141	Am I to consider you a disturbing element?
mdp.39015011340141	And what is your objection? ” 36 AS WE SEE IT.
mdp.39015011340141	And who is they goin'to run agin'him?
mdp.39015011340141	And why did he say that I knew where he was, when I did not?
mdp.39015011340141	And you do not feel that you ought to go back to College?
mdp.39015011340141	And you would not tell me?
mdp.39015011340141	Are you all done?
mdp.39015011340141	Are you going to fail me now?
mdp.39015011340141	Are you going to let them make a thief of that boy?
mdp.39015011340141	Are you still in the lead in your classes?
mdp.39015011340141	As the boy left Malcolm turned to Abe with the inquiry: “ Abe, who rode that horse to his death last night?
mdp.39015011340141	Ask me what will I not do? ” 137 138 AS WE SEE IT.
mdp.39015011340141	At last she whispered in a voice, uncertain and weak, “ Abe Overley? ”.
mdp.39015011340141	Bloxum, how came this pipe to be there? ” asked the Doctor.
mdp.39015011340141	Bloxum,"said the Doctor, “ is this statement true? ” “ Yes, sir, it is true; every word of it, ” was Bloxum's answer.
mdp.39015011340141	Buck glared at him for a moment, then said: “ So you are trying to put this whole thing on me, are you?
mdp.39015011340141	But can this boy afford to start a fight with these people just at the time he comes out of College and with nothing to live upon?
mdp.39015011340141	But in what way?
mdp.39015011340141	But is I as good as you an'de res'ob yo ’ friends?
mdp.39015011340141	But must we permit him to sacrifice himself upon the altar of his high ideal, which seems to me a bit over- drawn?"
mdp.39015011340141	But what about my chum, Abe?
mdp.39015011340141	But what can we do?
mdp.39015011340141	But what can you do?
mdp.39015011340141	But what did I say?"
mdp.39015011340141	But where has Abe gone, Mr. Donewell? ” CHAPTER XXXII.
mdp.39015011340141	But where is this new blood to come from?
mdp.39015011340141	But, Abe, what will we do when my boy and your boy learn the truth? ” “ God am my hepper, I dunno.
mdp.39015011340141	But, sah, will yo'nebber'member dat de Lawd is more pow’ful den we is?
mdp.39015011340141	But, why do n't he tell where he was that night?
mdp.39015011340141	But, why take this matter in your own hands?
mdp.39015011340141	By whom?

mdp.39015011340141	Can there be a just God?
mdp.39015011340141	Can there be laws to reach such people?
mdp.39015011340141	Can there be nothing that governs the universe but the avenging demon? ” Abe had now risen to his feet, towering above his friends in his rage.
mdp.39015011340141	Can you not see that that of which you complain is but the American idea?
mdp.39015011340141	Can you see anything funny in that?
mdp.39015011340141	Casper Lashum, will you let this grand old place get away from you for seventeen thousand five hundred dollars?
mdp.39015011340141	Casper said: “ Nick, what did I tell yer when yer started thet boy to school twenty odd yeirs ago?
mdp.39015011340141	Come, old man, tell me why you are throwing your life away? ” “ Black ”( this is the name he gave Abe when they first 186 188 AS WE SEE IT.

mdp.39015011340141	Den I say, What am dis world a cumin'to?
mdp.39015011340141	Did I also cause Overley to cut you out? ” laughed DeVaux's friend.
mdp.39015011340141	Did I also make you acquainted with Miss Donewell?
mdp.39015011340141	Did I teach you to be'vengeful?
mdp.39015011340141	Did my mother's cries stop you?
mdp.39015011340141	Did my poor old mother suffer?
mdp.39015011340141	Did my sister suffer when you brutes were tearing her garments from her back? ” thundered Abe.
mdp.39015011340141	Did n't I write pappy that yer particular was coming?
mdp.39015011340141	Did n't he tell me that?

mdp.39015011340141	Do you think that a good plan? ” “ Yes, Nancy, that is a very good plan, and I shall act upon it, ” said Abe, as he arose to leave.
mdp.39015011340141	Do you think that they or that I would object to your saying that you accepted the invitations?
mdp.39015011340141	Do you understand?
mdp.39015011340141	Do you want her to follow you, seeking an apology? ” Rattles said this with a view to relieving the strain under which they were laboring.
mdp.39015011340141	Does I tink dat a'nigger'oughten fight a white man?

mdp.39015011340141	Dr. Snell, and —"“ The minister? ” interrupts Abe.

mdp.39015011340141	Father, what must I do?
mdp.39015011340141	Finally it was broken by Malcolm A. Overley, with a voice trembling with emotion: “ Abe, you old black fool, who has broken word with you?
mdp.39015011340141	Finally, Malcolm A. Oberley said: “ Abe, what the h- are you staring at me that way for?
mdp.39015011340141	Finally, he asked in a solemn voice: “ What can I do?
mdp.39015011340141	Finally, the man appeared who lost(?)

mdp.39015011340141	Having been left, after the war, without stock to work the plantation- thanks to the disinterestedness(?)
mdp.39015011340141	He is black enough, but appears to be a gentleman. ” “ What do you think the young ladies will say? ” questioned Malcolm.
mdp.39015011340141	He walked over to Abe, placing his hand on his shoulder, saying: “ My son, may I not speak to you in God's name?
mdp.39015011340141	He's your"“ Mabel, his voice is grand and his manners are"“ Mabel, where was he educated?
mdp.39015011340141	Him's the one they expects to beat Cas fer sheriff?
mdp.39015011340141	His garments, which were gray in color, might have been homespun or anything else, and hung in loose flaps about his person, the trousers(?)
mdp.39015011340141	How I goin'to git a word in, nohow?
mdp.39015011340141	How are you?

mdp.39015011340141	How can I study now? ” “ Abe, I took the responsibility upon myself to make an engagement for you with Dr. Finley.
mdp.39015011340141	How can the Negro come in contact with you and your institutions and not be Americanized?
mdp.39015011340141	How could I look father in the face again? ” said Malcolm.
mdp.39015011340141	How could you possibly get that idea in your head?
mdp.39015011340141	How do you know that those were good old times? ” “ I always heard uncle refer to them as the good old times,"was the Doctor's hesitating reply.
mdp.39015011340141	How fared the Overleys as the years sped by?
mdp.39015011340141	How kin I talk?
mdp.39015011340141	How long have you been on this place that you have n't yet learned that I sleep at this hour?
mdp.39015011340141	How long since I commenced to take these'crackers'on terms of'Social Equality'?

mdp.39015011340141	Huh?
mdp.39015011340141	I am going to ask whether, after I have stained my hands in the blood of my mother's murderers, which I surely will do, will you still want to see me?

mdp.39015011340141	“ Say, fellows, what is this conspiracy?
mdp.39015011340141	“ So, that's what the matter wid them'big bugs,'is hit?
mdp.39015011340141	“ So, you want to go out West to kill somebody, do you?
mdp.39015011340141	“ Sue, ” said Nick, with a great show of wrath, “ why the h-- do n't yer come when I send fer yer?
mdp.39015011340141	“ Wall, boy, youse in a pretty fix, now, ai n't you?
mdp.39015011340141	“ What can we do? ” asked Rattles.
mdp.39015011340141	“ What dat?
mdp.39015011340141	“ What do you call that? ” pointing to the child.
mdp.39015011340141	“ What do you think of them? ” “ Come in my room, fellows, ” said one of the young men; “ we are not permitted to stand in the hallways.
mdp.39015011340141	“ What does he want, Abe? ” asked Malcolm, when the request was delivered.
mdp.39015011340141	“ What has he told you he means to do? ” “ He insists that his vow must be kept, ” said Mr. Donewell.
mdp.39015011340141	“ What have I done, Malcolm, to warrant this? ” asked Abe, when he had recovered from the surprise caused by his sus- pension.
mdp.39015011340141	“ What have you to say for yourself? ” “ I will simply say that these fellows"“ Gentlemen, ” interrupted Hawkins.
mdp.39015011340141	“ What is that you say, boy? ” exclaimed the father.
mdp.39015011340141	“ What is the matter with Rattles? ” asked Forbes.
mdp.39015011340141	“ What is the matter, Lashum? ” asked a Tennessee boy.
mdp.39015011340141	“ What is the trouble? ” “ Yes, my son, I is worried, ” answered the father.
mdp.39015011340141	“ What makes them ‘ niggers'? ” asked an English boy.
mdp.39015011340141	“ What shall I do? ” asked Malcolm.
mdp.39015011340141	“ What will I say to father if we do n't find it?
mdp.39015011340141	“ What you take me fer?
mdp.39015011340141	“ When are you going home?
mdp.39015011340141	“ When do I start for College? ” asked Malcolm.
mdp.39015011340141	“ Who are these people?
mdp.39015011340141	“ Who is the young lady with the dark hair and eyes?
mdp.39015011340141	“ Why, Bloxum, what is the matter with yer?
mdp.39015011340141	“ Why, Malcolm, do you think you can get along without my care? ”'laughed Abe.
mdp.39015011340141	“ Why, Overley,"said Forbes, “ what on earth ails you?
mdp.39015011340141	“ Why, dad, what is the matter? ” he exclaimed.
mdp.39015011340141	“ Why, what is the matter with me?
mdp.39015011340141	“ Why?
mdp.39015011340141	“ Yer has al’ays been a good boy, Nick; but ca n't yer overlook them things thet I learnt when I was a boy? ” “ Overlook h —!"
mdp.39015011340141	“ Yes jis'knowed that?
mdp.39015011340141	“ Yes, Abe, but do n't you know that these are different times?
mdp.39015011340141	“ Yes, but off of whose labor? ” AS WE SEE IT.
mdp.39015011340141	“ Yes, pappy, but that'nigger'is at the same school, and I-"“ How long yer been runnin'this heah place?
mdp.39015011340141	“ You have, have you?
mdp.39015011340141	“ Your poor mammy?
mdp.39015011340141	“ Your wife?
mdp.39015011340141	” “ Why, Abe, who the h — told you how near the grave I am?
mdp.39015054272441	Which one of you can dance? ” Shorty asked, as he toyed with his.45.
mdp.39015054272441	A hundred dollars a week? ” June asked in astonishment. mdp.39015054272441 Ai n't we just going to cut'em as they come, till we've cut out June's part? ” Uncle Jack asked, with growing concern.
mdp.39015054272441	Are you sure that's what he meant? mdp.39015054272441 At about what depth can water be found down there in the coast country?"
mdp.39015054272441	Do you mean that you have sold them already? ” he said in surprise. mdp.39015054272441 Do you think they are Meredith cattle? ” “ Yes.
mdp.39015054272441	Does she have to decide right away? ” Aunt Harriet ex- pressed concern. mdp.39015054272441 Gave you notice to get off? ” Aunt Harriet murmured, seemingly unable to understand.
mdp.39015054272441	Have you a copy of the contract, June? ” he asked. mdp.39015054272441 Have you decided to let me take that land off your hands? ”"I've given it some thought, and I ca n't see where it can be of much use to me.
mdp.39015054272441	Have you had any offers on them yet? ” he asked. mdp.39015054272441 Hello, Chandler? ” the bandit asked.
mdp.39015054272441	How about getting them to the yards? ” Scott asked. mdp.39015054272441 How are you getting along with June? ”"What do you mean, Jim?"
mdp.39015054272441	How are you getting along with June? ”What do you mean, Jim?"
mdp.39015054272441	How did you rest last night after so much activity crowded into so short a time yesterday, Mr. Shearn? ” Aunt Harriet inquired. mdp.39015054272441 How do you do? ” he said as he rose and bowed.
mdp.39015054272441	How long will it take to do that job? ” “ With the drilling outfit I'll send, we should put down a well in a day. mdp.39015054272441 How will a hundred dollars per week do to start with? ” Chandler smiled.
mdp.39015054272441	How, and why, do you figure they got into our pasture? ” the foreman asked. mdp.39015054272441 Juan, do you know where that large Stillson wrench is in the tool house at the ranch? ” Bill asked.
mdp.39015054272441	Robert? mdp.39015054272441 So he'll leave us to rot in this joint, will he?
mdp.39015054272441	Something wrong, Tom? ” Scott asked as the rancher hung up the receiver. mdp.39015054272441 Then Tom Meredith did pay you the twenty thousand dollars, and clear his ranch of the mortgage before he died? ” the sheriff said.
mdp.39015054272441	Well, do you think you can raise five hundred dollars of it? mdp.39015054272441 What happened?"
mdp.39015054272441	When did you leave Avera? ” “ About ten o'clock day before yesterday. mdp.39015054272441 When do you plan to sell them? ”"Well, I've got until Friday before he can file suit for fore- closure.
mdp.39015054272441	Where are you going, Mr. Chandler? ” she asked. mdp.39015054272441 Where did you get this? ” the boss asked somewhat skepti- cally.
mdp.39015054272441	Where is Mr. Chandler? ” June asked. mdp.39015054272441 Would you take four of the others?
mdp.39015054272441	Yeah? mdp.39015054272441 You mean you're going to dig for oil here on this place?"
mdp.39015054272441	142 The Tin Box “ Wo n't you come in, gentlemen? ” June said as she led the way into the large living room.
mdp.39015054272441	144 The Tin Box “ Looks sort of like she did forty years ago, do n't she, Cyrus?"
mdp.39015054272441	166 The Tin Box see man"Have you seen that brand anywhere, Bill? ” the foreman asked.
mdp.39015054272441	210 The Tin Box “ Robert Chandler? ” the sheriff asked in surprise.
mdp.39015054272441	240 The Tin Box"What do you mean, Bill?
mdp.39015054272441	A Story of Texas Cattle and Oil 253"Yes, why do n't you come back and help us get things straightened out? ” Aunt Harriet suggested.
mdp.39015054272441	A Story of Texas Cattle and Oil 261"I wonder who that letter was from? ” the lawyer remarked as they climbed into the car.
mdp.39015054272441	A Story of Texas Cattle and Oil 91"Have you given any thought to the proposition I men- tioned to you some time ago? ” he asked."
mdp.39015054272441	All through. ” “ If they gave up those wells, why did n't they pull the cas- ings? ” Bill looked Chandler straight in the eye.
mdp.39015054272441	And besides, who'd take your word against mine?
mdp.39015054272441	And he would n't give you a third renewal?
mdp.39015054272441	And in the Johnson pasture?
mdp.39015054272441	And may I ask what brings you here? ” Wade inquired.
mdp.39015054272441	Are they where I might see them, Miss Meredith? ” “ Yes, they are in a pasture, right off from the oil field there."
mdp.39015054272441	Are you Mr. Robert Chandler? ” June said as they entered the office.
mdp.39015054272441	Are you ready to meet those payments this morning? ” “ Why, no, I'm not, ” she replied, leading him away from Bill.
mdp.39015054272441	Are you through, gentlemen?
mdp.39015054272441	Aunt Harriet walked over and, placing her arm tenderly about the girls shoulder, asked: “ What's the matter, June?
mdp.39015054272441	But do you think you could have any luck with them Meredith horses?
mdp.39015054272441	But how could they have gotten there?
mdp.39015054272441	But how?
mdp.39015054272441	But was he blue because he could n't see any good coming his way?
mdp.39015054272441	But what makes you think he's crooked? ” Bill asked.
mdp.39015054272441	But you watch every move that snake?
mdp.39015054272441	Ca n't he see what he's doing to me?
mdp.39015054272441	Ca n't you speed up, Charlie?
mdp.39015054272441	Can I drive? ” “ Yes, you can drive, but it's a little rough for a car.
mdp.39015054272441	Can you get me some trucks around here? ” “ Yes, I think so.
mdp.39015054272441	Chandler'would be more appropriate?
mdp.39015054272441	Chandler?"
mdp.39015054272441	Come down here and get me out. ” “ How'd you get in jail this time?"
mdp.39015054272441	Did Bill know them? ” “ No, he says he has never seen them before.
mdp.39015054272441	Did n't he tell you?
mdp.39015054272441	Did you know about it, Aunt Harriet? ”"Only a few days ago,"Aunt Harriet replied.
mdp.39015054272441	Do I hear three and a quarter?
mdp.39015054272441	Do I hear three?
mdp.39015054272441	Do n't you think so? ” “ I'm awfully sorry, June, if the arrangements were unsatis- factory.
mdp.39015054272441	Do you know anything about that? ” “ Yes, I do, son, ” Uncle Jack replied confidentially.
mdp.39015054272441	Do you mean Bill, here? ” Johnson asked curiously.
mdp.39015054272441	Do you still say this receipt is a forgery? ” “ Well, no, I confess,"Chandler admitted reluctantly.
mdp.39015054272441	Do you suppose someone is playing a joke on me?"
mdp.39015054272441	Do you suppose the money and other papers, if he had any on him at the time, could be still in the car? ” Chandler asked.
mdp.39015054272441	Do you think that cowpuncher from down there is taking them?
mdp.39015054272441	Do you think they could have mistaken you for somebody else? ” “ Ca n't answer that either.
mdp.39015054272441	Do you think this is genuine?
mdp.39015054272441	Do you think you can get that information for me?"
mdp.39015054272441	Do you think you can let me have it? ” “ What is the occasion, June? ” he asked.
mdp.39015054272441	Do you think you can let me have it? ” “ What is the occasion, June? ” he asked.
mdp.39015054272441	Does he want to force me to beg on the streets?
mdp.39015054272441	Finally Bill spoke: “ What do you make of it? ” he asked.
mdp.39015054272441	Getting over- stocked? ”"No.
mdp.39015054272441	Has n't he a heart at all?"
mdp.39015054272441	Has n't it been four years straight, Wade? ” “ Yes, I believe it has, ” Wade admitted, with an air of pride.
mdp.39015054272441	Has n't my work pleased you?"
mdp.39015054272441	He acquired the name “ Gotch ” because of the condition of his right ear, the end of which was dropped by gotch ticks?
mdp.39015054272441	He was in a big hurry to get home before the dust storm got too severe. ” “ Did he cash the check for the full amount? ” June asked.
mdp.39015054272441	He will ride his own horse, however. ”"That's that cow puncher from the coast country, that took first money in the calf roping, ai n't it?"
mdp.39015054272441	He-"“ A mortgage? ” June interrupted in surprised alarm, “ You mean a mortgage on this ranch, our home? ” “ Yes, ” Scott replied.
mdp.39015054272441	He-"“ A mortgage? ” June interrupted in surprised alarm, “ You mean a mortgage on this ranch, our home? ” “ Yes, ” Scott replied.
mdp.39015054272441	Hobson?"
mdp.39015054272441	How am I to get through the winter?"
mdp.39015054272441	How are Mrs. Scott and the children? ” “ Just fine.
mdp.39015054272441	How can you think that he does n't mean weli? ” “ I hope you'll excuse me, Miss June.
mdp.39015054272441	How did that happen? ” June related in a few words just what had taken place.
mdp.39015054272441	How did you find out? ” Wade then told him about the inquiry made by the cowboy, and of his conversation with Uncle Jack that morning.
mdp.39015054272441	How did you learn? ” she asked.
mdp.39015054272441	How have you been getting along?
mdp.39015054272441	How have you been getting along? ” “ Oh, I've been doing all right, Cyrus.
mdp.39015054272441	How long has Mr. Chandler known about this? ”"Oh, he's known about it for some time.
mdp.39015054272441	How long has the sheriff been gone? ” “ Just about thirty minutes.
mdp.39015054272441	I do n't know what to do. ”"How can he do that?
mdp.39015054272441	I do n't want to be seen having any dealings with him; might not look so good. ”"When do you want me to go? ” Bromberg asked.
mdp.39015054272441	I have n't been able to sleep for nights. ” “ That serious? ” Scott was deeply concerned.
mdp.39015054272441	I personally inspected the brands on several of them. ”"How do you suppose they got there? ” Aunt Harriet asked curiously.
mdp.39015054272441	I won- der why? ” June seemed puzzled.
mdp.39015054272441	I'll make it reasonable, though. ” “ When can you get started? ” “ Any time you're ready."
mdp.39015054272441	I'm glad to do anything I can. ” “ Wo n't you come into the house? ” June said.
mdp.39015054272441	I'm going to eat Harriet out of house and home. ” “ Is n't he nice?
mdp.39015054272441	If you want'em, you can have'em. ” “ How much do you charge for your horses?"
mdp.39015054272441	Is he around here again? ” “ Yes.
mdp.39015054272441	Is that right?"
mdp.39015054272441	Is the sheriff in? ” he inquired.
mdp.39015054272441	Jim? ” he called excitedly, when he had been connected with the company's office in Labesia.
mdp.39015054272441	Know him? ” “ Yes, I know him.
mdp.39015054272441	Martha Thompson. ” “ Did you marry Martha Thompson?
mdp.39015054272441	Maybe the next time you're sent out on a job, you'll do it right. ” “ What do you mean, leave us in here?
mdp.39015054272441	Now I'm seeing things. ” “ How are you, Martha?
mdp.39015054272441	Now how soon can you have them ready?"
mdp.39015054272441	Now what about your cattle? ” he asked.
mdp.39015054272441	Or do you think Junë is disposing of them through him?"
mdp.39015054272441	Or possibly June?"
mdp.39015054272441	Perhaps some message that would disclose the activities of the last hours of her fa- ther's life?
mdp.39015054272441	Say, how about getting some horses to ride?
mdp.39015054272441	Say, you do n't happen to be no kin to that Tom Meredith that lost that ranch, do you, Miss? ” “ Yes, that was my father, ” June replied.
mdp.39015054272441	See that? ” Bill took off his hat and stuck a finger through a hole in the crown.
mdp.39015054272441	Shall we ride on and take a look at it? ” “ Yes, I suppose so,"June replied halfheartedly.
mdp.39015054272441	Shearn?'
mdp.39015054272441	So what can I gain by keeping it? ” She had about decided to dispose of it when Robertson, with his attorney, drove up to the ranch one afternoon.
mdp.39015054272441	Sold for three cents a pound to Mr. Felix Hobson of Kansas. ” “ Do you think three cents will bring enough to clear my ranch, Randall?"
mdp.39015054272441	Somebody has driven all those steers out of the three- mile pasture. ”"What's that? ” the rancher asked excitedly.
mdp.39015054272441	Sounds like he's excited. ”"Hello, Tack? ” the rancher spoke into the mouthpiece.
mdp.39015054272441	Tell me, how is June Meredith getting along since the death of her parents? ” the rancher inquired.
mdp.39015054272441	That's the second letter you've got from her, ai n't it? ” “ Yes, but it's nothing like that, Pete.
mdp.39015054272441	Then how is she ever to pay the land out if you do n't approve the sale of her cattle?
mdp.39015054272441	Then you will have all the boys ready early Monday morning? ” “ Yes, Miss June,"Uncle Jack said.
mdp.39015054272441	Then, since she had no other source of income, how was she to meet her obliga- tions at all?
mdp.39015054272441	They said that so far as oil is concerned, we might as well for- get about that. ” “ What can we do? ” His wife looked at him inquiringly.
mdp.39015054272441	Three cents once, three cents twice, all done?
mdp.39015054272441	Un- less he had some other object in view. ” “ But you do n't think Bill had anything to do with it, do you, Uncle Jack?"
mdp.39015054272441	Vamoose, you hombres. ” “ What do you mean, ordering these men away?"
mdp.39015054272441	Was that some kind of a stunt? ”"No, Sam, ” Bill replied earnestly, “ I never stunt, and I most certainly would not on so serious an occasion.
mdp.39015054272441	We did n't tell you we have a plane, did we? ”"No, you did n't. ” “ Come on, get on your horse.
mdp.39015054272441	We're glad to do what we can to help. ” “ About how far would you call it to the river? ” she asked.
mdp.39015054272441	What about the payments that would be due in late winter A Story of Texas Cattle and Oil 151 when her cattle would be in no condition for market?
mdp.39015054272441	What about the rest of the notes that would follow in such rapid succession until the land at Avera was paid for?
mdp.39015054272441	What are you going to do?"
mdp.39015054272441	What brings you out so early? ” June asked curiously.
mdp.39015054272441	What brings you out this way? ” “ You, Bill. ” “ Me? ” Bill took the sheriff's statement as a joke.
mdp.39015054272441	What brings you out this way? ” “ You, Bill. ” “ Me? ” Bill took the sheriff's statement as a joke.
mdp.39015054272441	What can I do for you gentlemen? ” the foreman drawled.
mdp.39015054272441	What can I do for you this morning? ”"I'm Mr. Chandler.
mdp.39015054272441	What did Chandler say to you?"
mdp.39015054272441	What did Mr. Chandler say?"
mdp.39015054272441	What did he do?"
mdp.39015054272441	What did the envelope contain?
mdp.39015054272441	What did you find out? ” he said in rapid- fire order.
mdp.39015054272441	What did you say, Randall? ” “ I said that it looks like it has hung up on two and three- quarter cents, ” the broker repeated.
mdp.39015054272441	What do I hear?"
mdp.39015054272441	What do you mean? ” Chandler was curious.
mdp.39015054272441	What do you want me to do about the problem this discovery has created? ”"I do n't know.
mdp.39015054272441	What do you want, Jim?"
mdp.39015054272441	What is it you want me to do? ”"It's this check, ” he said as he handed the Hobson check to the teller.
mdp.39015054272441	What makes you think they did n't? ” he stammered.
mdp.39015054272441	What was she to do?
mdp.39015054272441	What were they doing at Avera?
mdp.39015054272441	What would a check book from Labesia be doing in a box away down here, more than six hundred miles away?"
mdp.39015054272441	What would happen to Chandler?
mdp.39015054272441	What would he do when confronted with proof of his fraud?
mdp.39015054272441	What would she do then?
mdp.39015054272441	What'd you catch'em doing, skin- ning a cow? ”"No, not quite that bad.
mdp.39015054272441	What'll you charge me? ” “ Oh, I do n't know.
mdp.39015054272441	What's hap- pened?"
mdp.39015054272441	What's happened, Mr. Chandler, that causes you to order us off so suddenly? ” Chandler repeated what he had told the sheriff a short time before.
mdp.39015054272441	What's he doing down there? ” The lawyer seemed very much surprised.
mdp.39015054272441	What's on your mind this morning? ” he inquired.
mdp.39015054272441	What's the matter? ” he asked.
mdp.39015054272441	What's the nature of your troubles? ” “ My ranch. ” “ Your ranch?

mdp.39015054272441	What's the occasion this evening? ” the man asked.
mdp.39015054272441	What's the trouble?"
mdp.39015054272441	What's wrong?"
mdp.39015054272441	When are you expecting to send your cattle in? ”"I expect to send the first ones in Saturday.
mdp.39015054272441	When did you leave Avera? ” “ We left about ten o'clock yesterday morning; stopped over- night with a friend of Mr. Johnson's, about halfway here.
mdp.39015054272441	When did you see Tom Meredith? ” 16 The Tin Box dollars per acre bonus alone will amount to almost twenty- five times what the ranch is costing you.
mdp.39015054272441	When does the next train leave here for Labesia? ” she inquired anxiously.
mdp.39015054272441	Where did they get a plane to come here?
mdp.39015054272441	Where have you been keeping yourself?
mdp.39015054272441	Where is she? ”"Down at the house, there by the old sorghum mill.
mdp.39015054272441	Where's June?"
mdp.39015054272441	Where?
mdp.39015054272441	Where? ” June asked excitedly.
mdp.39015054272441	Where? ” he said loudly, as he jumped up.
mdp.39015054272441	Who are they? ” “ Do n't know, ” Bill replied, somewhat puzzled, “ Never saw them before. ” “ But why were they after you?
mdp.39015054272441	Who are they? ” “ Do n't know, ” Bill replied, somewhat puzzled, “ Never saw them before. ” “ But why were they after you?
mdp.39015054272441	Who do you suppose did it? ”"I have no idea.
mdp.39015054272441	Who is this Felix Hobson?"
mdp.39015054272441	Who knows but that some day you'll have oil wells, and be just as secure as I am today? ” “ Mr.
mdp.39015054272441	Who would you say is doing this stealing?
mdp.39015054272441	Who'll give two and a quarter cents?"
mdp.39015054272441	Who'll make it three and a quarter?
mdp.39015054272441	Who'll make it two and a quarter?
mdp.39015054272441	Who'll make it two?
mdp.39015054272441	Why are you buying this land, with all the land you have up there?
mdp.39015054272441	Why do n't you and Tom sell out the ranch and move to town, Mrs. Mere- dith?
mdp.39015054272441	Why do you ask, June? ” “ Wade is coming by to lend me some money to pay Mr. Chandler.
mdp.39015054272441	Why do you ask? ”"I was up at the house with Miss Meredith awhile ago, when he came to her and asked her about paying pasture fees.
mdp.39015054272441	Why do you think that? ” The rancher seemed deeply concerned.
mdp.39015054272441	Why should n't I be happy?
mdp.39015054272441	Why should n't every- body be happy on a beautiful spring morning? ” he beamed.
mdp.39015054272441	Why should they be so anxious to take our home without giving us an equal chance? ”"I ca n't understand it, ” her husband said.
mdp.39015054272441	Why?
mdp.39015054272441	Why? ” he asked curiously.
mdp.39015054272441	Will you do it? ” “ Anything I can.
mdp.39015054272441	Will you show them to him? ” “ Why, yes, sure, ” Uncle Jack replied.
mdp.39015054272441	Wo n't you have breakfast with us?
mdp.39015054272441	Wo n't you sit down? ”"I'm trying to learn something of my father Tom Mere- dith's activities on the day of his death, ” June said.
mdp.39015054272441	Would you favor me by taking an early morning jaunt with me? ” “ Yes, I'll be delighted.
mdp.39015054272441	Would you repeat what you were saying? ” she apologized.
mdp.39015054272441	Would you tell me some- thing about it?
mdp.39015054272441	You can do that, ca n't you? ” he asked.
mdp.39015054272441	You do n't mind if I call you Uncle Jack, do you?"
mdp.39015054272441	You do n't think he had anything to do with it, do you? ” Meredith asked, seemingly much perturbed.
mdp.39015054272441	You remember what I told you about my feelings towards Chandler, the other day, do n't you? ” w can he do that?
mdp.39015054272441	You remember what I told you about my feelings towards Chandler, the other day, do n't you? ” w can he do that?
mdp.39015054272441	You remember when those men were out here with those trucks last September?
mdp.39015054272441	You say you have located them at Avera, Wade?"
mdp.39015054272441	Your friend Miss Meredith came in on it. ”"You mean June?"
mdp.39015054272441	with, have n't you?
mdp.39015054272441	“ A check book? ” June was puzzled.
mdp.39015054272441	“ All right then, Mr. Chandler, what is it you've got? ” she asked with a tinge of sarcasm.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Am I right, boys? ” “ Sure, you're right, ” chorused the men.
mdp.39015054272441	“ And I believe I'd prefer to walk- alone. ” “ What are you doing coming home alone, June? ” Mrs. Scott asked as June came up on the porch.
mdp.39015054272441	“ And may I ask what brings you here? ” June asked curi- ously.
mdp.39015054272441	“ And where was the gallant Mr. Chandler all this time? ” she asked in a tone of mockery.
mdp.39015054272441	“ And you say this man Chandler took your place?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ Are you Miss June Meredith? ” the official asked as the men raised their hats.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Are you sure he's going to let you have the money?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ Are you sure they're circle- bar cattle, Wade? ” June asked, greatly puzzled.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Are you the Mr. Hobson that bought them circle- bar cattle at the stockyards more than a year ago?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ At about what depth do you think oil might be found there? ” Chandler asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ At about what speed would you say they were driving when you passed them? ” the attorney asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Aunt Harriet, you'll be around near the house most of today, wo n't you? ” June asked as they were removing the breakfast dishes from the table.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Brom- berg, I want you to go down to Avera right away and see about getting Stonelli and those other two bums out of jail. ” “ Stonelli?
mdp.39015054272441	“ But what did he say?
mdp.39015054272441	“ Could you wait on me until a little later, about the four- teenth, Mr. Chandler?
mdp.39015054272441	“ Did he give you specific instructions for holding up Mr. Meredith? ” Stevens asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Did he set any time limit?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ Did you see any more of them? ” the boss asked, when the men had closed the gate behind the steers.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Did you see those cattle?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do I have to give you my answer now, Wade? ” she asked after a moment's hesitation.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do n't you think that some of the other wells might be opened more easily? ” June suggested.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do n't you try to fight against it? ” “ Yes, very hard, ” he said thoughtfully.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do you have anything on the yards this morning? ” the buyer asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do you have proof of this charge? ” The officer was puz- zled.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do you know him very well? ” the sheriff asked curiously.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do you mean it? ” “ Yes, I do.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do you mean that Robert Chandler who owns that big ranch and oil field at Labesia?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do you mean that you are going to take my cattle that I borrowed money on all I have left, to feed? ” she asked, be- wildered.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do you mean those cattle are being stolen off my ranch?
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do you mean to leave them in jail? ” Bromberg asked when he and Chandler had reached the street.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do you plan to have the car removed from the water and searched? ” Chandler was curiously interested.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do you really think he will go through with it? ” Bill asked with deep concern.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do you think he meant what he said about leaving us in here? ” one of the gunmen asked uneasily.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do you think he would try to take her cattle if she failed to pay that pasture rent? ” Bill asked, deeply concerned.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do you think that salesman will let those steers go for as little as four cents? ”"I think he'll take less than that, ” Scott replied.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do you think we ought to tell Miss June? ” Jim Buckley suggested.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do you think you'll get that back? ” Bromberg asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do you want me to put down the wells? ” Robertson asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do you want to break my arm? ” Chandler yelled in pain.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Do you want to sell them? ” he said.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Does he know the location of your three- mile pasture?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ Get going where?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ Happy?
mdp.39015054272441	“ Has he the right to take them fed steers, Miss June? ” he was asking.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Have you anyone you might send along to show me the way? ” “ Uncle Jack, my foreman, will go with you.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Have you got the cash? ” Chandler looked up.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Hello, Randall? ” It was the voice of Tom Meredith.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Here's Bill- er, I mean Mr. Shearn. ” “ Why did n't you let it go like you first said it? ” Bill rep- rimanded her.
mdp.39015054272441	“ How are you getting along with your oil field? ” “ Oh, just fine.
mdp.39015054272441	“ How can I get to them?
mdp.39015054272441	“ How did it happen? ” Stonelli explained in detail what had happened in the at- tempted assassination of Bill Shearn.
mdp.39015054272441	“ How did you happen to get tied up like that?
mdp.39015054272441	“ How do you do?
mdp.39015054272441	“ How do you do? ” June smiled, as the men doffed their sombreros and bowed low.
mdp.39015054272441	“ How many did you see? ” “ We counted twelve cows and calves, ” José Gonzales said.
mdp.39015054272441	“ How much are you behind in your payments, June? ” he inquired.
mdp.39015054272441	“ How much did he offer you?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ How much do you want an acre for it, and how could I pay for it? ” June inquired.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Huh? ” Uncle Jim said sleepily.
mdp.39015054272441	“ I do n't know anyone from whom I might borrow enough money to release the mortgage on my cattle. ”"Have you tried Wade Lucas?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ I like to work in a rodeo with good men. ” “ Going in this morning, June? ” Wade asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ I tell you what you do, Tom, ” Scott suggested, “ Where are you now? ”"I'm at the Wilson Pharmacy, ” the rancher said.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Is n't this a beautiful morning? ” he said as he took a panoramic view of the surrounding landscape.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Is that all they are offering? ” he asked in puzzled surprise.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Is that so?
mdp.39015054272441	“ Is there no plane out before that time? ”"No.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Is this the Scott Commission Company?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ It is a small world, is n't it?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ June did that?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ June ’s not here, is she? ” he asked knowingly.
mdp.39015054272441	“ June, what did you tell that cattle buyer that just left here?
mdp.39015054272441	“ Martha has already fixed for him to stay with us tonight. ” “ Well, Mr. Shearn, you'll have breakfast with us in the morning, wo n't you?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ Martha, know who this is? ” Uncle Jack asked as his wife came out on the back porch.
mdp.39015054272441	“ May I see your contract? ” he asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Miss Meredith! ” he called ex- citedly, “ Do n't you have a City National Bank at your home? ”"Why, yes.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Miss Meredith, at Labesia? ” The foreman was puzzled.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Now that you know the cattle are being stolen, what are you going to do about it? ” he asked concernedly.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Offering to help you?
mdp.39015054272441	“ Oh, I rent'em all day for three dollars apiece. ” “ Where can we see them? ” June asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Oh, they're celebrating June- er, Miss Meredith getting her ranch back. ”"Miss Meredith getting her ranch back? ” he asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Oill Oill Ca n't you understand?
mdp.39015054272441	“ On what event?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ Pretty place, ai n't it?
mdp.39015054272441	“ Say, Jim,"he addressed the president, you've got a water- well drilling outfit, have n't you? ” “ Why, yes.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Shall we be riding? ” he suggested.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Shooting at Billl When?
mdp.39015054272441	“ Some saddle horses?
mdp.39015054272441	“ Startling in what way? ” Chandler asked curiously.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Take Simmons?
mdp.39015054272441	“ That was certainly a bad accident, was n't it?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ Then why am I being discharged? ”.
mdp.39015054272441	“ These horses are not wild, are they, mister?
mdp.39015054272441	“ Uncle Jack has n't told you?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ Wake up! ” Adams shook him violently, “ There's a truck driving into the pasture. ”"A truck?
mdp.39015054272441	“ Well, June, ” he said without the customary greeting,"have you got my money?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ What am I to do, Aunt Harriet?
mdp.39015054272441	“ What are you doing there?
mdp.39015054272441	“ What are you going to do, Tom?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ What are you going to do?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ What are you talking about, Mr. Chandler?
mdp.39015054272441	“ What brings you down here? ” A Story of Texas Cattle and Oil 223"I shipped some cattle here a day or two ago.
mdp.39015054272441	“ What brings you to town so early this morning? ”"Oh, just felt like taking an early morning ride, ” the rancher replied.
mdp.39015054272441	“ What business did you have nos- ing around those wells?
mdp.39015054272441	“ What can I do for you? ” he stammered.
mdp.39015054272441	“ What can we do, Jack?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ What do you mean, Mr. Chandler? ”"You know very well what I mean,"Chandler stormed angrily.
mdp.39015054272441	“ What do you mean? ” Robertson asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ What do you want me to do with'em, ” Shorty asked,"brand'em? ” “ I do n't care what you do with them.
mdp.39015054272441	“ What have you been offered? ”"I've been offered a bonus of ten dollars an acre.
mdp.39015054272441	“ What have you found there, a fortune? ” June asked jok- ingly.
mdp.39015054272441	“ What is the nature of the business, may I ask? ” Aunt Har- riet inquired.
mdp.39015054272441	“ What is your name? ” Horace Stevens asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ What kind of a man is this fellow Chandler? ” Bill asked curiously.
mdp.39015054272441	“ What kind of an outfit do you have here? ” Bill asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ What security did you give him? ” he asked uneasily.
mdp.39015054272441	“ What's he doing there now? ” Sam Harris was excited.
mdp.39015054272441	“ What's the hurry, Jim?
mdp.39015054272441	“ What's the matter, June?
mdp.39015054272441	“ What's the matter? ” June inquired anxiously.
mdp.39015054272441	“ When can you get them together so we can get some kind of a line- up on them? ” he asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ When do you expect them to start operations?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ When do you expect to get busy out there? ” Chandler inquired.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Where are the ones you retained? ”"They're down below the pens in a small pasture."
mdp.39015054272441	“ Where are the papers, the mortgage I signed? ” Meredith asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Where did you raise this money? ” “ Mr.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Where is Mr. Chandler now? ” Mr. Ross inquired anx- iously.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Where's Miss June? ” A Story of Texas Cattle and Oil 79"She's about here some place.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Where's Mr. Chan- dler? ” “ I left him at the hotel. ” June then explained Chandler's actions a short time before.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Who holds the lien on your ranch? ” “ Robert Chandler. ”"I see.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Who told you that? ” he demanded.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Who wanted to talk to you? ” “ Robert Chandler. ” “ What did he want? ” the prosecuting attorney asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Who wanted to talk to you? ” “ Robert Chandler. ” “ What did he want? ” the prosecuting attorney asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Why do n't you marry me, June, and forget about this whole thing?
mdp.39015054272441	“ Why do n't you send the sheriff after him?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ Why do you ask? ” Bill then went into a low, earnest conversation with Uncle Jack.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Why, what's the matter, Mr. Chandler?
mdp.39015054272441	“ Will Anthony Sto- nelli take the stand?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ Will you sign an affidavit that what you've told me is true? ” the district attorney asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Wo n't you come in?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ Wo n't you sit down? ” He smiled.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Wonder what they're doing down here, and in our pas- ture?"
mdp.39015054272441	“ Yeah?
mdp.39015054272441	“ Yes, I am. ” “ May I offer my condolences, Miss Meredith? ” “ Thank you, Mr.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Yes, what's the excitement? ” Robertson asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Yes. ” A Story of Texas Cattle and Oil- 25 erer “ Is Mr. Meredith there? ” “ Yes, just a moment.
mdp.39015054272441	“ Yes. ” “ Yet you foreclosed and took the place because June could find no proof of it? ” “ Yes.
mdp.39015054272441	“ You did?
mdp.39015054272441	“ You have a trailer here that you can load the horses into, have n't you? ” he in- quired.
mdp.39015054272441	“ You have n't said or done anything to make Wade angry, have you, June? ” Aunt Harriet asked.
mdp.39015054272441	“ You know, June- you do n't mind my calling you June, do you?
mdp.39015054272441	“ You say you want to get off on the fifth for about ten days? ” the foreman asked when Bill had spoken to him.
mdp.39015054272441	“ You want to locate a wildcat? ” “ Perhaps you do n't understand,"the man laughed.

osu.32435001929710	“ Can I help you, ‘ Grandma? ’"Poor “ Mother ” turned at the sound of the sweet, young voice, and her dim eyes brightened.
osu.32435001929710	“ Certainly I will care to, for she has the loveliest face I ever saw. ” “ How in the deuce did you find out about her, Er?
osu.32435001929710	“ Cocoa? ” asked Fred, gaily, springing to his feet and assisting her.
osu.32435001929710	“ Come back to bed and run the risk of losing our train?
osu.32435001929710	“ Did it ring? ” she asked.
osu.32435001929710	“ Did n’t you have it told? ” “ Yes, ” replied Fred, with his hand on the knob to open the door.
osu.32435001929710	“ Did you wish to consult with me? ” “ Yes, ma’am. ” ’ Both girls replied, but their voices together would not have made one good one.
osu.32435001929710	“ Do let me arrange it for you, will you, Jess? ” “ With the greatest of pleasure, ” said Jessie, with alacrity, sitting down on her trunk.
osu.32435001929710	“ Do n’t you be so sure of that, Miss Dare. ” “ Jess and I are going to keep ‘ old maids ” hall, are n’t we, Jess? ” said Allie.
osu.32435001929710	“ Do n’t you think it is a little chilly out here?
osu.32435001929710	“ Do n’t you think that in nine cases out of ten you will find they go together? ” “ Yes, I do, ” said Vera, decidedly.
osu.32435001929710	“ Do n’t you want me to go with you? ” Strange to say, Vera hesitated.
osu.32435001929710	“ Do n’t you want me, Vera? ” she asked, child- ishly.
osu.32435001929710	“ Do n’t you wish it were you, Allie, who was going to be the centre of attraction to- night?
osu.32435001929710	“ Do you know what they ask? ” “ I ’m not quite sure, but I think only thirty-five cents.
osu.32435001929710	“ Do you think the other girls will venture out? ” As if in answer to her question, the door- bell rang.
osu.32435001929710	“ Does it seem such an impossible thing — finding a sermon in a face? ” asked Vera.
osu.32435001929710	“ Does n’t anyone go to the church but shouting Methodists?
osu.32435001929710	“ Does n’t that advocate theatre- going?
osu.32435001929710	“ Excuse me, Miss, but do you play on the organ? ” “ Yes, ma’am, ” answered Vera, with a prompt- ness born of surprise.
osu.32435001929710	“ Excuse me, please, but is there anything more that you want?
osu.32435001929710	“ Excuse me; shall we go — go up? ” she asked.
osu.32435001929710	“ Giving yourself away, Freddie, my son? ” said Erfort, gravely.
osu.32435001929710	“ Got a ‘ shothecary pop ’ in there? ” asked Jessie, bending over and peering in.'
osu.32435001929710	“ Got stuck? ” Something that sounded like “ Ga, ga, gla, ’ was the answer.
osu.32435001929710	“ Guess who it was? ” Garnet stood perfectly still.'
osu.32435001929710	“ Had n’t you better rest awhile Jessie? ” asked Garnet, just then.
osu.32435001929710	“ Have n’t you two lazy girls got the beds made yet?
osu.32435001929710	“ Have you any more questions to ask, Squaw? ” Madam was meekness personified, and her tones were timid.
osu.32435001929710	“ Have you any to dispose of?
osu.32435001929710	“ He is your cousin, is n’t he? ” There is a slight slur on the last words.
osu.32435001929710	“ He makes his women too weak. ” “ Physically, intellectually, or morally? ” “ Oh, morally.
osu.32435001929710	“ He ’ll have to step over your dead body to get it; wo n’t he, Vera? ” giggled Jessie, and Garnet frowned at her for her indiscretion.
osu.32435001929710	“ Her name is Hood—- Charlotte Hood — and she is a widow. ”'‘ Any children? ” asked Jessie.
osu.32435001929710	“ How can it?
osu.32435001929710	“ How could you?
osu.32435001929710	“ How long do you intend to stay at the city? ” asked Fred.
osu.32435001929710	“ How many would you have? ” “ I do n't mean the sermon the minister preached."
osu.32435001929710	“ How old are you anyway, Vera? ” “ Five years older than you, Miss, ” answered Vera, calmly.
osu.32435001929710	“ How was it you asked if Net and Allie might come, Jess? ” asked Vera, as they walked swiftly towards home.
osu.32435001929710	“ I choose the biggest cup. ”'“ Where shall I set it? ” asked Garnet, standing still in her white night dress, and looking around.
osu.32435001929710	“ I do n’t mean to be cruel and spoil your supper, but — its a man. ” “ Wkat ’s a man? ” asked Jessie, with charming directness.
osu.32435001929710	“ I want to surprise Prof. Ban- croft when I begin lessons again in the fall. ” “ What time were our young men going to call? ” asked Vera.
osu.32435001929710	“ I want to tell you it all. ”_ “ When will it be most convenient for you to have us come?
osu.32435001929710	“ I was reading only this afternoon an article in here — let me see — who was it by?
osu.32435001929710	“ I ’m not going anywhere I do n’t want to go, am I? ” “ It seems not, ” replied Garnet, still holding her ’ temper under control.
osu.32435001929710	“ Is it crawling up from the foot, Al? ” she asked, concernedly.
osu.32435001929710	“ Is n’t that a little strong?
osu.32435001929710	“ It was n’t, was it, Vera? ” 166 jfour( Btrls at Gottage( IttQ.
osu.32435001929710	“ It's too 66d of you, Garnet. ” “\Vhat ’s that? ” giggled Jessie, lifting her head from her pillow.
osu.32435001929710	“ Jessie, ” said Vera, where was it you and your mother stayed the time you came here three or four years ago? ”'“ Sure enough!
osu.32435001929710	“ Just a drop more? ” she pleaded.
osu.32435001929710	“ Just wait until I finish, will you? ” said Jessie, breathlessly.
osu.32435001929710	“ Let ’s try it to- night, will you, Al? ” “ With pleasure, ” replied Allie.
osu.32435001929710	“ Lost your watch, Jess?
osu.32435001929710	“ May I come and talk, too? ” asked Garnet.
osu.32435001929710	“ Me and Mr. Atherton have morning prayers, ” went on “ Mother. ” “ Wo nt you join us?
osu.32435001929710	“ My feet are wet. ” “ He looked like a nice old gentleman, did n’t he? ” observed Allie.
osu.32435001929710	“ My sermon, Mr. Richards?
osu.32435001929710	“ No clothes- press, but — can you complain? ” and she pointed to the hooks and nails that were driven into the beams and walls.
osu.32435001929710	“ No peculiar sensation there, is there, Freddie? ”'Fred had turned in surprise, but at Erfort ’s ques- tion he broke into a merry laugh.
osu.32435001929710	“ Not yet, but there is going to be. ” “ An ’ phwere did yez get the news, Vera? ” asked Jessie.
osu.32435001929710	“ Oh, Er, are n’t you glad you are living? ” “ We are to have a new lodger, to- morrow, boys, ” said Vera, putting the cups on the table.
osu.32435001929710	“ Oh, Jasmine; what do you know about men? ” asked Vera, with a laugh.
osu.32435001929710	“ Oh, Mr. Travers, do you read Dickens?
osu.32435001929710	“ Oh, Vera, it does n’t seem right, does it? ” Vera looked very grave.
osu.32435001929710	“ Oh, Vera, you look for all the world like a bride yourself. ” “ And why should n’t I?
osu.32435001929710	“ Oh, dear, dear, dear, where was it?
osu.32435001929710	“ Oh, do n’t you want to go out either, Allie? ” asked Vera, rather anxiously."
osu.32435001929710	“ Oh, do you?
osu.32435001929710	“ Oh, is it you, dear?
osu.32435001929710	“ Oh, will you?

osu.32435001929710	“ Pleasant news? ” she repeated, smiling.
osu.32435001929710	“ Ready, Vera? ” asked Garnet.
osu.32435001929710	“ Shall I go in for chairs? ” asked Garnet.
osu.32435001929710	“ Shall I pull you out?
osu.32435001929710	“ Shall I sit or stand? ” he asks.
osu.32435001929710	“ Shall we go in? ” she asked.
osu.32435001929710	“ She is none the less a lady for all that, is she? ” she asked, softly.
osu.32435001929710	“ Suppose we begin on the beds? ” “ All right.
osu.32435001929710	“ The power they possess is really remarkable. ” “ Did you ever go to one? ” Vera asked.
osu.32435001929710	“ To Mrs. H0od ’s?
osu.32435001929710	“ Vera Earle not come?
osu.32435001929710	“ Was it Trinity Park? ” asked'Allie, absently.
osu.32435001929710	“ We went for a little walk and came through the park on our way home. ” “ The park opposite? ” asked Vera.
osu.32435001929710	“ We will sing to them now if they would like to have us, wo n’t we? ” “ Certainly, ” they answered.
osu.32435001929710	“ Well, I must say, Jessie, you are behaving very childishly. ” “ Well, why? ” flashed out Jessie.
osu.32435001929710	“ Well, and why did n’t you keep them? ” asked Vera.
osu.32435001929710	“ Well, if you will, I ’ll be much obliged to you, ” said “ Mother. ” “ Is there anything else you ’d like? ” asked Vera.'
osu.32435001929710	“ Well, what do you think of that? ” asked Fred.
osu.32435001929710	“ Well, will you please play softly while lam talking to this young lady?
osu.32435001929710	“ What am I? ” asked Jessie.
osu.32435001929710	“ What are you laughing at?
osu.32435001929710	“ What are you looking so solemn about, Miss Hunt?
osu.32435001929710	“ What are you so solemn about? ” “ I am not solemn, ” replied Vera.
osu.32435001929710	“ What did he give?
osu.32435001929710	“ What do you call yourself, Granny? ” “ I am three years your senior, ” replied Garnet, calmly.

osu.32435001929710	“ What is that now?
osu.32435001929710	“ What is that? ” asked Garnet innocently.
osu.32435001929710	“ What is the distinction between phrenology and physiognomy? ” asked Garnet, who knew, but wanted.
osu.32435001929710	“ What is the impression received? ” “ Not particularly favorable. ” “ Good!
osu.32435001929710	“ What is the subject of discussion this afternoon? ” “ We have just had a glimpse of our new lodger, ” said Vera.
osu.32435001929710	“ What is your Hotel? ”.

osu.32435001929710	“ What shall we do?, ” “ Oh, we ’ll find it.
osu.32435001929710	“ What time is it? ” asked Allie.
osu.32435001929710	“ What ’s the matter, Jasmine?
osu.32435001929710	“ What ’s the matter? ” asked Erfort.
osu.32435001929710	“ Whatever made you think of it? ” “ I happened to look up ’ and see the name, ” nodding her head towards a sign- post.
osu.32435001929710	“ Where did you go?
osu.32435001929710	“ Where did you find it? ” both asked at once.
osu.32435001929710	“ Where ’s the ‘ bank ’? ” asked Jessie, rather loudly.
osu.32435001929710	“ Which character did you like best? ” asked Allie.
osu.32435001929710	“ Which of his books do you like the best, Mr. Richards?
osu.32435001929710	“ Which would you rather do, Al and Jess, ” said Garnet, as they rose from the table, “ wash the dishes or make the beds?
osu.32435001929710	“ Who do you think is his noblest character, Miss Dare? ” asked Erfort.
osu.32435001929710	“ Who is she? ” “ She is a laundress. ” If he had said: “ She is a murderess, ” the effect would have been scarcely more startling.
osu.32435001929710	“ Who now?
osu.32435001929710	“ Who wants to go with me? ” “ Not I, thank you, ” said Jessie.
osu.32435001929710	“ Who ’s going to get breakfast this morning? ” asked Jessie.
osu.32435001929710	“ Who ’s going to get breakfast this morning? ” repeated Garnet.
osu.32435001929710	“ Why did n’t you tell us?
osu.32435001929710	“ Why do n’t the crowd wake up then?
osu.32435001929710	“ Why do you ask? ” “ Oh, I thought you looked as though you did, ’ was the rather alarming answer.
osu.32435001929710	“ Why do you think ‘ Jonas ’ his worst charac- ter?
osu.32435001929710	“ Why, Jessie, what a question l Of course he is. ” “ Then why does He provide better for the'dog than for the child? ” Vera was mute.
osu.32435001929710	“ Will it be possible for us to become acquainted with her? ” she asked, turning to Erfort.
osu.32435001929710	“ Will they come in here? ” she asked, in an agitated whisper.
osu.32435001929710	“ Will you come in?
osu.32435001929710	“ Will you pass me my cap, dear, and is my’hair smooth in the back?
osu.32435001929710	“ Will you try to mesmerize me?
osu.32435001929710	“ With whom do I live? ” was her next question, and immediately after asking it she fixed her eyes on space and her mind ditto.
osu.32435001929710	“ Wo nt some one get up and open the blind- door, so that the electric light will shine in? ” asked Allie.
osu.32435001929710	“ Wo nt you come in, Mr. Richards? ” and she placed a chair for him as she spoke.
osu.32435001929710	“ Wo n’t you come in? ” asked Vera, as they reached the cottage.
osu.32435001929710	“ Wo n’t you do it again? ” “ Never l ” “ Then I forgive you t/ z's time. ” So they parted friends.
osu.32435001929710	“ Wonder if they heard us warbling? ” said Jessie.
osu.32435001929710	“ Would n’t you like to go down to the beach and watch the bathers? ” asked Erfort, as they turned to leave.
osu.32435001929710	“ Would you be guilty, my sedate cousin? ” he asked, with mock solemnity.
osu.32435001929710	“ Would you like for me to tell you what you ought to be, if you are not? ” “ If you please. ” “ A school teacher. ” Vera started.
osu.32435001929710	“ Yes;'would you like some? ” “ Well, now I would.
osu.32435001929710	“ Yes? ” “ Well, ” repeated Vera.
osu.32435001929710	“ You are not in love with the reverend, are you Net? ” “ I am not very far from it, ” replied Garnet.
osu.32435001929710	“ You have, really, Mr. Richards, and so early?
osu.32435001929710	“ You like it, do n’t you? ” “ Oh, yes, dear; very much.
osu.32435001929710	“ You object to the bathing? ” asked Erfort, quietly.
osu.32435001929710	“ You remember what Fred said to- night about that clairvoyant who has rooms on the avenue? ” Garnet ’s whisper was tremulous with excitement.
osu.32435001929710	“ You ’ll come with me, wo n’t you, Allie?
osu.32435001929710	“ You ’ll have to draw on the bank soon, win’t you Jess?
osu.32435001929710	“ llh; is that so?
osu.32435001929710	“ l’ve- al- most- got- it. ” “ You ’ve gotten it pretty bad, have n’t you? ” asked Vera, laughing.
osu.32435001929710	“ ‘ Little Dorrit. ’ ” ‘ And his worst?
osu.32435001929710	“ ‘ Many hands make light work. ’ Suppose you help?
osu.32435001929710	“\Vhat have you down on the bill of fare for to- day ’s breakfast, Net? ” asked Vera.
osu.32435001929710	” “ C- c- lerk. ” “\Vhat kind of a clerk?
osu.32435001929710	” “ Martin Chuzzlewit. ” “ Oh, do you?
osu.32435001929710	” “ Oh, did she have on a lovely white lace dress and a hat just one bed of pansies? ” interrupted Jessie, turning around with an animated face.
osu.32435001929710	” “ What are you looking so sober about, Vera?
osu.32435001929710	” “ What s/ mll I call them? ” asked Jessie, not a bit abashed.
osu.32435001929710	” “ Yes. ” “ Who is it? ” But before Fred can answer, Erfort steps quickly forward and takes hold of the moving hand.

mdp.39015042099351	But how could you be an editor and write what you did n't believe?
mdp.39015042099351	But how could you compromise with principle, with what you felt to be right?
mdp.39015042099351	But is it?
mdp.39015042099351	But now- where could he get another job at his age?
mdp.39015042099351	But now... Well, what had he decided about the White Band?
mdp.39015042099351	But was it in the larger sense?
mdp.39015042099351	But what about this White Band?".
mdp.39015042099351	But what are your plans?
mdp.39015042099351	But what can you expect? ” “ They'll all rule the same way,"the friend said.
mdp.39015042099351	But what could even Doc do?
mdp.39015042099351	But what could you do?
mdp.39015042099351	But what did he care what they said?
mdp.39015042099351	But what did they know in Rome about the prob- lems of the southern United States?
mdp.39015042099351	But what else could he have done?
mdp.39015042099351	But what the hell do we care?
mdp.39015042099351	But what were they like, the ones some Bandsmen would teach what they called the facts of life?
mdp.39015042099351	But who cared about evidence in this segregation fight?
mdp.39015042099351	But why should he?
mdp.39015042099351	But why the formal- ity?
mdp.39015042099351	But why?
mdp.39015042099351	But would they?
mdp.39015042099351	Ca n't you answer'em?
mdp.39015042099351	Ca n't you run back for a few days while things are dull, just simmering, as you say?

mdp.39015042099351	Could he, possibly, have been mistaken, could the “ party ” Fats had talked about have been less sinister than he thought?
mdp.39015042099351	Could the White Band be blamed?
mdp.39015042099351	Did he know better?
mdp.39015042099351	Did you file suit for divorce? ” “ No, I resigned from the Senate. ” Her eyes Aared like two jets abruptly ignited.

mdp.39015042099351	Do n't you keep up with our athletes, Senator?
mdp.39015042099351	Do n't you think I know why you went up there? ” “ Oh, hell. ” He picked up his luggage, started up the stairs.
mdp.39015042099351	Do n't you think you might have misunderstood a word here and there, or that maybe Fats was kidding?
mdp.39015042099351	Do n't you- you damn fools ever use your heads?
mdp.39015042099351	Do you know Bearcat Turner, the ex- prize fighter? ”"Just to speak to, ” the coach said.
mdp.39015042099351	Do you think I'd have bothered with that if it had n't been for you? ” “ That's sweet, darling.
mdp.39015042099351	Do you think maybe those guys in Halloween masks that burned the nigger lawyer's house were the same ones that killed this Ned Tarver?"
mdp.39015042099351	Do you want that? ” “ No, no! ” they shouted.
mdp.39015042099351	Does that shock you?

mdp.39015042099351	Have you noticed that?
mdp.39015042099351	He said, “ I did n't tell you or Hank, because it was pretty vague, but I was tipped off to this. ”"To what? ” Dave finished his whiskey sour.
mdp.39015042099351	He says he's an old friend of yours, and just dropped in. ” “ Carver?
mdp.39015042099351	He'd thought of tearing up these forgotten scraps of the past, but what was the use?
mdp.39015042099351	He's high up in some union, and he's going around telling people integration is coming and we might as well accept it. ” “ That so?
mdp.39015042099351	He, Tim, was a big shot only on the campus, and what would that amount to when it would be his word against Coach Gilliam's?
mdp.39015042099351	His condition is reported serious. ” “ He's a football player, is n't he? ” Joe asked.
mdp.39015042099351	How could even someone who sincerely wanted to prevent trouble act on anything so vague?
mdp.39015042099351	How did he know the man actually was Graham?
mdp.39015042099351	How did she keep it in such flawless order?
mdp.39015042099351	How do you feel about it, Joe? ” Duffield delayed his answer.
mdp.39015042099351	How do you feel about that? ” “ Suits me fine,"she said.
mdp.39015042099351	How else could you satisfy your lords and masters, the voters?
mdp.39015042099351	How far could prejudice, hatred, retaliation go?
mdp.39015042099351	How much? ” “ Nothing,"said Joe.
mdp.39015042099351	How would it hurt anyone?
mdp.39015042099351	How're you?
mdp.39015042099351	How's the boy? ”"Fine, fine, thank you all. ” He shuffled back until he stood near Johnson and the fat man, watching the pool game.
mdp.39015042099351	How's your fam- ily? ” “ Quite well.
mdp.39015042099351	How's your mis- sion going? ” “ Just starting, so I do n't know.
mdp.39015042099351	I did n't hear any names men- tioned. ” “ Well, Mr. O'Hearn, who are the fellows planning this thing?"
mdp.39015042099351	I do n't doubt that's what'll happen too. ”"Did Fats say he was in on it? ”"Fats did n't say.
mdp.39015042099351	I had a talk with Joe Duf- field this morning. ” vernm THE WHITE BAND 37"Joe Duffield?
mdp.39015042099351	I heard things were boiling in Niggertown, jigs going around armed. ” THE WHITE BAND 211 “ That so? ”"Sure.
mdp.39015042099351	I realize my information is pretty vague, but it comes straight from the feedbox. ”"How did you hear it? ” the chief pressed.
mdp.39015042099351	I stand to make twenty, thirty bucks. ” “ More craps? ” “ Nope, they've sort of got on to my influence over the bones.
mdp.39015042099351	I think it was his idea. ” “ It could n't have worked out better- for us. ” “ How's Project Bearcat coming? ”.
mdp.39015042099351	I was just dressing. ” “ Are they treating you all right? ”"Sure.
mdp.39015042099351	I'm a student at Teachers and..."THE WHITE BAND 223 “ Do n't you think I know you, Tim? ” said the sergeant.
mdp.39015042099351	I'm a widow. ” “ Oh, do you have children? ” “ Yassah, three. ” “ Could we sit here on the porch a minute and talk?

mdp.39015042099351	If they'll just let me alone, I'll be as- as..."“ Unobtrusive? ” Dr. Davison suggested.
mdp.39015042099351	If you go ahead and fight, what'll happen?
mdp.39015042099351	If you were going in for nature, why make it fit man's ideas of measured conformity?
mdp.39015042099351	In fact, I saw him yes- terday. ” 44 THE WHITE BAND"You saw him? ” “ Sure, he came up to my office.
mdp.39015042099351	In other words, who's advancing them money?
mdp.39015042099351	In what connection? ” “ Ever hear of Patsy Grogan? ” “ I remember him, sure.
mdp.39015042099351	In what connection? ” “ Ever hear of Patsy Grogan? ” “ I remember him, sure.
mdp.39015042099351	Is it International or La Guardia? ” “ La Guardia, I think. ” “ I'll check, and I'll be there with the car. ” “ Grand.
mdp.39015042099351	Is that so?
mdp.39015042099351	Is there anything you want to add? ”"Only this, Mr. Gray.
mdp.39015042099351	Is this any of my business?
mdp.39015042099351	It probably was true, so what?
mdp.39015042099351	It was Fats Gilliam, our football coach. ” “ Fats? ” Joe's eyes widened with incredulity.
mdp.39015042099351	It was headlined: DO YOU WANT DESEGREGATION FORCED ON YOU?
mdp.39015042099351	It's — it's bad. ” “ Me go by the paper? ” Young Blake McLeod shuddered.
mdp.39015042099351	Jack Talley said, as he adjusted the restored tie, “ I thought this integration thing had died down, but I heard something today. ” “ What?"
mdp.39015042099351	Jesus, how it hurt! ” “ I'll bet. ” “ Any more excitement around town? ” Dave said everything was quiet, had been since that last fire.
mdp.39015042099351	Just give it some thought. ” “ I will, John. ” “ Will you lunch with me tomorrow, Harry?
mdp.39015042099351	Know any more good ones?
mdp.39015042099351	May we expect that the leaders of the valiant force that took the offensive against him will receive some sort of civic decoration for their courage?
mdp.39015042099351	My resignation is effective immediately. ” “ In God's name, why?"
mdp.39015042099351	Now do you guys agree with me?
mdp.39015042099351	Now that he knew, what should he do?
mdp.39015042099351	Oh, I have, as I told you before, ways of learning things- what you might call sources of information. ”"Perhaps the police? ” Ned suggested.
mdp.39015042099351	Only cowards would gang up on somebody. ” “ You're right, Tim. ” “ And this Ned Tarver, he was an educated nigra, a lawyer, was n't he?"
mdp.39015042099351	Or did anyone ever become independent?
mdp.39015042099351	Or was he happy, or even content?
mdp.39015042099351	Or would it matter?
mdp.39015042099351	Right away, huh?
mdp.39015042099351	SHOULD COLORED AND WHITE CHILDREN GO TO SCHOOL TOGETHER?
mdp.39015042099351	Sam?

mdp.39015042099351	Say, Sam, think you could get the boys together for me, say tomorrow night or next night?
mdp.39015042099351	See how sharp its edges are?

mdp.39015042099351	See?
mdp.39015042099351	See?
mdp.39015042099351	See?
mdp.39015042099351	Should I ignore it or do something about it?
mdp.39015042099351	Should he go to Doc Davison?
mdp.39015042099351	Should he go to Fats, when he could get hold of him?
mdp.39015042099351	Smoke? ” “ Thanks. ” Graham sat down in the one comfortable chair and lit the cigarette.
mdp.39015042099351	So I figure I cash in on that, hein? ” “ Well, watch your step. ” “ That I'll do. ” They parted, Graham throwing back a canine grin.
mdp.39015042099351	So what?
mdp.39015042099351	So what? ” “ The White Band, so it says at least, wants to keep things in hand and prevent trouble.
mdp.39015042099351	Sold any more paintings? ”.

mdp.39015042099351	Suppose he's marching there somewhere? ”"Oh, he would n't take part in a thing like that, ” Ned was sure.
mdp.39015042099351	THE WHITE BAND 73 How could you fool a child of even average intelligence?
mdp.39015042099351	Take me up to my- my apartment, and all of you- come along. ” “ But do n't you need to see a doctor? ” Blake McLeod asked.
mdp.39015042099351	The Band had nothing to do with this. ” “ How do I know?
mdp.39015042099351	The afternoon was fading before its brief time because of a fog on W THE WHITE BAND 241"Properly segregated? ” “ Quite properly.

mdp.39015042099351	The youngest in the group, Blake McLeod, a bank teller, who was twenty- four and looked about nineteen, asked, “ What do we do now, Fats? ”.
mdp.39015042099351	Then Ben Blackwell said how about the game Saturday, and Fats said, “ Must you bring that up?"
mdp.39015042099351	Then Bill Davison said, “ I was wondering..."“ What, dear? ” “ Well, whether that college in Pennsylvania, Claybank, has found a president.
mdp.39015042099351	There had been a time, when they were both very young... “ How,"Joe asked, “ did your outfit happen to spring up?
mdp.39015042099351	There's trouble coming- plenty, I'm afraid. ” “ Yes? ” “ You bet.
mdp.39015042099351	This office is being inundated with paper work. ” “ Is that bad? ” Hank Caldwell asked.
mdp.39015042099351	Tim's fists moved fast, landing here THE WHITE BAND 285 “ What people have blamed the White Band? ” he countered.
mdp.39015042099351	To cause more trouble? ” “ On the contrary, ” Dave said quickly.
mdp.39015042099351	WHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT IT?
mdp.39015042099351	WHERE IS THIS FEDERAL INTERFERENCE LEADING?
mdp.39015042099351	Want to go along, Dave? ” “ Sure, I'll go, ” Dave agreed.
mdp.39015042099351	Was he a success?
mdp.39015042099351	Was it Huneker?
mdp.39015042099351	Was it anyone's, least of all Sarah's?
mdp.39015042099351	Was it his fault?
mdp.39015042099351	Was n't his name Ballard?
mdp.39015042099351	Was n't it time now to carry out the law?
mdp.39015042099351	Was that so terrible?
mdp.39015042099351	Was the White Band worth it?
mdp.39015042099351	We fixed them at twenty dollars a year, did n't we? ” “ Yeah, payable quarterly.
mdp.39015042099351	We talked over the situ- ation a little. ” “ You knew him before? ”"I knew him around Washington, ” Joe said vaguely.
mdp.39015042099351	We took care of Tarver but- good. ” “ Should we have left him there? ” Blake McLeod wondered.
mdp.39015042099351	We want them to go into the regular, established unions, not in any special one of ours. ” “ What's all that got to do with me?"
mdp.39015042099351	Well, what did it matter, if she knew or not?
mdp.39015042099351	Well, what was the excuse? ” “ Oh, a dull committee meeting. ” “ The Committee on Subversive Activities? ” “ Nothing that exciting.
mdp.39015042099351	Well, what was the excuse? ” “ Oh, a dull committee meeting. ” “ The Committee on Subversive Activities? ” “ Nothing that exciting.
mdp.39015042099351	Well, what would he do now?
mdp.39015042099351	Well, what's next?
mdp.39015042099351	Were not four months long enough to move with deliberate speed to comply with the law?
mdp.39015042099351	Were they as innocuous, as polite and in- conspicuous as Jack had been?
mdp.39015042099351	What I wondered about was, how could ten or fifteen of them all at once have the money to buy guns?
mdp.39015042099351	What about the League for Racial Justice? ” “ We're moving along, doctor, sort of feeling our way.
mdp.39015042099351	What can I do for you?
mdp.39015042099351	What can we do?
mdp.39015042099351	What cops did he know?
mdp.39015042099351	What could I do, anyway?"
mdp.39015042099351	What did a few months matter?
mdp.39015042099351	What did he have to say?"
mdp.39015042099351	What did it matter if his skin was dark?
mdp.39015042099351	What did it matter?
mdp.39015042099351	What did you expect for your color?
mdp.39015042099351	What difference did it make?
mdp.39015042099351	What difference does it make to an alcoholic? ” She was remorseful: she rarely admitted her addiction.
mdp.39015042099351	What do we do now? ”"I'll tell you in a minute, ” said Fats.
mdp.39015042099351	What do you fellows think? ” “ Okay, I'd say, ” Dave replied.
mdp.39015042099351	What do you mean—'vigilante'? ”.
mdp.39015042099351	What does it do mostly? ”"Well, we try to organize the workers, encourage them to join their appropriate unions.
mdp.39015042099351	What had happened, among other things, to their friendship?
mdp.39015042099351	What happened?
mdp.39015042099351	What have you to say about that? ” “ We are against violence, Ben.
mdp.39015042099351	What if a cop should stop and search me?
mdp.39015042099351	What if he did?
mdp.39015042099351	What is a person of influence?
mdp.39015042099351	What is justice?
mdp.39015042099351	What is this idea you think you got? ” Boehmer leaned over the table.
mdp.39015042099351	What now?
mdp.39015042099351	What possible difference could it make what he thought?
mdp.39015042099351	What the hell do you mean?
mdp.39015042099351	What the hell was getting into him?
mdp.39015042099351	What was it?
mdp.39015042099351	What was the use?

mdp.39015042099351	What'd I tell you?
mdp.39015042099351	What's next?
mdp.39015042099351	What's on your mind? ” “ More of the same. ” Graham laughed.
mdp.39015042099351	What's the matter with you boys?
mdp.39015042099351	What's the sense in that?
mdp.39015042099351	What's this all about anyway? ” Then he saw the small procession of Negroes and paused.
mdp.39015042099351	What's to stop'em?"
mdp.39015042099351	What, he wondered, had happened to Sarah... perhaps he should say, to Sarah and him?
mdp.39015042099351	Whatever got into him. ”"You'll attend them? ” she asked.

mdp.39015042099351	Why did he do this, and why did n't he do that?
mdp.39015042099351	Why did he leave his clothes and his hunting things around to clutter up the house?
mdp.39015042099351	Why do n't you clear out?
mdp.39015042099351	Why do you ask?
mdp.39015042099351	Why had he protected Fats?
mdp.39015042099351	Why had he said yes?
mdp.39015042099351	Why had this fellow insisted on enrolling and causing a lot of trouble?
mdp.39015042099351	Why not fly back to New York for a few days, now that 216 THE WHITE BAND he d phone the airlinlaybe he could get meeting the brief was finished?
mdp.39015042099351	Why not?
mdp.39015042099351	Why settle for anything small like the legislature, or even the national House?
mdp.39015042099351	Why should he step out, or at least sidetrack himself at the threshold, you might say, of a notable career?
mdp.39015042099351	Why, really, underneath all the bunk, was Joe Duffield retiring from poli- tics?
mdp.39015042099351	Why?
mdp.39015042099351	Will you go now, so we can go back to sleep? ”"I guess so,"Bill Dade replied.
mdp.39015042099351	Would n't he be first on the list? ” “ I guess so. ” “ I heard, too, who was leading the bunch. ” “ You did?
mdp.39015042099351	Would n't he be first on the list? ” “ I guess so. ” “ I heard, too, who was leading the bunch. ” “ You did?
mdp.39015042099351	Would n't you like to have your chil- dren go to a better school? ” The little woman's eyes flashed.
mdp.39015042099351	Would the community, the state, the South be better prepared four months or a year hence?
mdp.39015042099351	Would they levy on his furniture?
mdp.39015042099351	You about ready? ” “ In two shakes, ” he called back.
mdp.39015042099351	You do all right, maybe get rich, eh?
mdp.39015042099351	You forget I was brought up in Alabama?"
mdp.39015042099351	You interested in it? ” “ I do n't know.
mdp.39015042099351	You maybe buy me out, eh?
mdp.39015042099351	You name it. ” “ Any suggestion? ” She pondered.
mdp.39015042099351	You'd think it was a racetrack. ” “ What'd he say? ” Ben Blackwell asked “ Oh, nothing much except what he felt he had to say.
mdp.39015042099351	You'll be hosts to the other guest. ” “ Where'll we find this other jig? ” “ Be careful what you say, ” Fats Gilliam cut in.
mdp.39015042099351	You've been threatened, have n't you? ” “ Maybe.
mdp.39015042099351	You've received two written threats, have n't you? ”"How did you know that? ” Ned looked steadily at Graham.
mdp.39015042099351	You've received two written threats, have n't you? ”"How did you know that? ” Ned looked steadily at Graham.
mdp.39015042099351	“ A sort of Ku Klux? ”"No, that's not my understanding.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Am I in time to ask you for this dance?"
mdp.39015042099351	“ Am I like hell and damnation?
mdp.39015042099351	“ And did n't you and I and Rafferty and that tall Swede- Larsen?-go to that speak nights and settle the problems of the universe? ”"Sure."
mdp.39015042099351	“ And why should I have? ” “ Oh.
mdp.39015042099351	“ And you ca n't figure from the note who it was? ” “ That's it.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Baynesville cops?
mdp.39015042099351	“ But how can you know, Senator?
mdp.39015042099351	“ But what can they do?
mdp.39015042099351	“ But where does organization, the White Band, come in?
mdp.39015042099351	“ But why not, Mr. Haynes?
mdp.39015042099351	“ But, Senator, the way it happened... was n't it just like I told you, that fellow Tarver at the nigger Elks', everything?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Can you mean Negrotown? ”"No, Baynesville would n't know what you meant.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Could I speak to Mr. Carruthers?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Could I speak to you a minute? ” “ Of course,"Ned said, “ right here? ” “ Maybe we could walk a little, ” Graham suggested.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Could I speak to you a minute? ” “ Of course,"Ned said, “ right here? ” “ Maybe we could walk a little, ” Graham suggested.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Did he maybe work for you once? ” the coroner asked.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Did you hear that trumpet?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Do you love him, Myra? ” She looked at him with an impish grin.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Do you owe him money?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Do you think I'm a complete fool?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Does Your Honor care to hear further from us? ” “ I do n't think so,"Judge Darcy said.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Does your way of life involve keeping the Negroes down? ”.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Ever play? ”"Nope. ” Bearcat Turner reflected.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Fats Gilliam is with us? ” “ Decidedly.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Hello, Johnson, how're things? ” “ Okay, Graham.
mdp.39015042099351	“ How are plans for headquarters coming? ” “ Oh, I'm glad you asked.
mdp.39015042099351	“ How are you, Joe?
mdp.39015042099351	“ How are you, Mr. Tar- ver?
mdp.39015042099351	“ How can anyone know?"
mdp.39015042099351	“ How did he learn all this? ” Tom wondered.
mdp.39015042099351	“ How do I know you're not a white man tryin'git me into a jam? ”.
mdp.39015042099351	“ How's your girl friend? ” He tried to laugh, but succeeded in making only an ambigu- ous sound.
mdp.39015042099351	“ How's ’ at? ”"They're sore because a few of us tried to get into white schools."
mdp.39015042099351	“ How?
mdp.39015042099351	“ I heard a nigra is going to try to enroll here. ”"You mean in some Baynesville school or at State Teach- se o ers? ” “ At Teachers."
mdp.39015042099351	“ I suppose I should be very proud to be wife of the Grand Mogul, what- ever it is, of the White Band?
mdp.39015042099351	“ I'd like to know why the hell not?
mdp.39015042099351	“ I'm sorry, Dr. Davison, ” she said crisply, “ it's taken. ” “ Then a later one? ” he suggested.
mdp.39015042099351	“ If that fine drum- and- bugle corps will give us an A- or is it a B- sharp?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Intimidated? ” “ If you want to call it that.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Is your husband around? ” She opened the door a little wider.
mdp.39015042099351	“ It's just that... 68 THE WHITE BAND 69 well, Coach, do you know anything about the White Band? ” “ Something, sure.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Just who was that? ” she asked.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Let's go down to Nigger- town, walk around a little. ” Why?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Look, Ned, why do n't we go out and have a drink?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Look, Sarah dear, how'd you like to go up to the mountains to recuperate? ” “ That would be nice.
mdp.39015042099351	“ May I have this dance?"
mdp.39015042099351	“ Me?
mdp.39015042099351	“ No, but what good would a gun do?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Now that you're no longer a senator, Joe, ca n't we book you for more speeches here and there?
mdp.39015042099351	“ O'Hearn?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Senator, how much is the White Band paying you? ” Bixby asked.
mdp.39015042099351	“ So what?
mdp.39015042099351	“ So you're Tim O'Hearn?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Sure, Warren, it's fine. ” “ It wo n't offend anybody? ”"I'm sure it wo n't, ” the old editor said.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Sure, what outfit is n't that tries to help those without money or influence. ”"Is it that bad? ” “ I honestly think so, Mr. Tarver.
mdp.39015042099351	“ That's a job, is n't it? ” he said pleasantly.
mdp.39015042099351	“ The Sons and Daughters of I Will Arise? ” he suggested.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Think it's okay? ” Warren Ashley asked.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Think they want another war, like back in'sixty- four when Sherman come down here? ” “ They would n't care a damn."
mdp.39015042099351	“ Think you can beat Auburn, Fats? ” The coach looked up with his fat man's false joviality and chuckled.
mdp.39015042099351	“ This desegre- gation thing? ”"Not altogether. ” Graham grinned, exposing broken and missing teeth.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Unless you think of anything else we should do, Tom?"
mdp.39015042099351	“ Want me too? ” Hank asked.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Want to leave that with me? ” “ Sure, I do n't want it."
mdp.39015042099351	“ Want to try?"
mdp.39015042099351	“ Was n't such a trait once considered rather noble? ” Sarah asked.
mdp.39015042099351	“ We just happened to be passing. ” “ I'se crazy, is I? ” The Negro stepped closer, and his com- panions gathered around him.
mdp.39015042099351	“ We try to help the laboring man everywhere, and we're in a number of countries. ” “ What are you doing here? ” Gilliam asked.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Well, Joe, what do we do now?"
mdp.39015042099351	“ Well, Sarah Duffield, you're no longer married to a senator. ”"I'm... what?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Well, anyone else any questions? ” The others made negative sounds.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Whar you white boys goin'? ” he demanded.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What ages are your children? ” “ Nine, eleven, twelve.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What brings you here, Ned?
mdp.39015042099351	“ What can I do for you, Tarver? ” The officer did not ask his visitor to sit down.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What can I do for you? ” Tom Goodwin pulled out his billfold and extracted a notice.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What can I do for you? ”"I'm Tim O'Hearn.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What checks?
mdp.39015042099351	“ What could that be?"
mdp.39015042099351	“ What did he say? ”.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What do we do?
mdp.39015042099351	“ What do we do? ” someone asked.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What do you mean, Fats? ”.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What effect do you think such a parade has?
mdp.39015042099351	“ What good would they be?
mdp.39015042099351	“ What is it, please? ” “ Could I speak to you a minute? ” She looked at him suspiciously.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What is it, please? ” “ Could I speak to you a minute? ” She looked at him suspiciously.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What is it? ” “ Just what it purports to be. ”"I see.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What mought that be? ” “ Well, it's an organization to try to get full citizenship rights for the colored people.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What white folks? ”"You know, this school thing."
mdp.39015042099351	“ What would you prefer?"
mdp.39015042099351	“ What you white boys doin'here? ” he demanded.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What you wrote me about Baynesville..."“ Yes? ”"It might do very well.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What you wu'k at? ” Bearcat asked, his eyes still roving over Johnson.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What'll you fellows have? ” The Senator wanted bourbon and water, the others Tom Collinses.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What's it to you, uncle? ” Hefty retorted, catching in the street light a patch of gray hair.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What's my title to be? ”.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What's new, boys? ” They disclaimed knowledge of anything in particular.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What's the matter? ” he asked.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What's the trouble? ” he asked, raising his voice to give it the color of authority, without which he knew they would n't listen to him.
mdp.39015042099351	“ What's the use?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Which one? ” “ Which one!
mdp.39015042099351	“ White band- white band?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Who are they planning to work on? ”"I wish I knew, Chief- I'd tell you."
mdp.39015042099351	“ Who have we got this fall that can pass? ” Fats Gilliam countered.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Who is the- fortu- nate guy? ” “ Nobody you know, dear; at least I do n't think so.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Who said any- thing about love?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Who told you? ” “ It was- well, confidential, ” Tim explained.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Who's Doc Whimsett? ” Joe asked.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Who's not a working man? ” Fats countered.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Who's scared?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Why do you want to be a teacher, Jack?"
mdp.39015042099351	“ Why not? ” “ Well, we have other methods, even if the courts held against us, which I suppose they'd have to do.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Why pick on poor old Bearcat?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Why the bejesus not?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Why, Tim?"
mdp.39015042099351	“ Why? ” “ Because he's in the hospital. ”"Since when?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Why? ” “ Because he's in the hospital. ”"Since when?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Wonder what happened to Bill Dade? ” Ben Blackwell asked.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Yeah?
mdp.39015042099351	“ Yeah? ” the massive coach reflected.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Yes, Sarah? ” She floated downstairs in a blue duster, fresh from a cold shower, and she seemed all right.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Yes?
mdp.39015042099351	“ You a stranger, friend?
mdp.39015042099351	“ You believe me now?
mdp.39015042099351	“ You did what?"
mdp.39015042099351	“ You do n't know of any plans to take anybody out? ”.
mdp.39015042099351	“ You know what I was telling you the other day, Bearcat,'bout the white folks uptown? ” Bearcat stared at Johnson, suspicious again.
mdp.39015042099351	“ You mean full time? ” Hank asked.
mdp.39015042099351	“ You might have heard of me too? ” He laughed, exposing his wolfish assortment of irregular teeth.
mdp.39015042099351	“ You think I have n't seen you play?
mdp.39015042099351	“ You think so? ” Bearcat asked, as pleased as if some expert had picked him to win a crucial bout.
mdp.39015042099351	“ You think so? ” Hefty stepped back in a fighting pose.
mdp.39015042099351	“ Your family well? ” “ All quite well.
mdp.39015004315027	About little Tony? mdp.39015004315027 And what's all that got to do with Tony's falling??
mdp.39015004315027	And what's all that got to do with Tony's falling?? mdp.39015004315027 Are n't we having dinner together?"
mdp.39015004315027	Are there any special effects you wish to have registered, sir?
mdp.39015004315027	Are you sure you want me, Erskine?? mdp.39015004315027 Are you sure you want me, Erskine??
mdp.39015004315027	Are you very busy now?? mdp.39015004315027 Are you very busy now??
mdp.39015004315027	But I thought the child was dead...Had he spoken too abruptly, in too surprised a manner?
mdp.39015004315027	But how could we ever live together?
mdp.39015004315027	But what in the world can I do?
mdp.39015004315027	But what ought we to do? ” Erskine asked. mdp.39015004315027 But you do n't know me, so how can you be jeal- ous? ” she asked him.
mdp.39015004315027	But, Erskine? ” He seized her nude body and held her close to him. mdp.39015004315027 But, listen... That morning I tried to get my Sunday paper from the hallway, see?
mdp.39015004315027	Confess? mdp.39015004315027 Could he have fallen against it? ” Erskine asked him in a low, charged tone.
mdp.39015004315027	Could you be certain of how big they were from that distance?
mdp.39015004315027	Did I say I was n't? ” Mabel demanded. mdp.39015004315027 Did you hear anything out here this morning?
mdp.39015004315027	Do n't you think you ought to ask your mama about that, Tony? mdp.39015004315027 Do you ever go to church?"
mdp.39015004315027	Do you really want me?
mdp.39015004315027	Do you want to fight Longevity Life?
mdp.39015004315027	Does she beat you often?
mdp.39015004315027	Erskine, do you want to confess something to me?
mdp.39015004315027	Erskine, teach me how to live, wo n't you?
mdp.39015004315027	Erskine, what in hell's the matter with you?
mdp.39015004315027	Fowler, are n't you stepping just a bit outside of SAVAGE HOLIDAY 25 your little track?
mdp.39015004315027	God, Erskine, what good on earth would that do now? ” she asked in a hopeless whisper. mdp.39015004315027 Good- bye. ” He heard a smacking sound of lips over the wires and he knew that she was giving him a kiss... Was she drunk?
mdp.39015004315027	Have you a screwdriver? ” he asked her. mdp.39015004315027 Have you any special selections of sacred music in mind, sir? ”"No."
mdp.39015004315027	He did play on other floors, did n't he?
mdp.39015004315027	Hello... Is that you, Erskine? ” “ Yes, Mabel, ” he dragged the words out of him. mdp.39015004315027 How can I tell?
mdp.39015004315027	How do you think I live? mdp.39015004315027 Hunh? ” Erskine grunted, struggling to orient himself.
mdp.39015004315027	I know it sounds wild... You did n't hear any- thing on the balcony, did you? ” she asked suddenly. mdp.39015004315027 I wonder if there's anything we can do? ” Erskine spoke uncertainly.
mdp.39015004315027	I'm bad, hunh? ” SAVAGE HOLIDAY 175 “ You're worried. mdp.39015004315027 Is Mrs. Mabel Blake there? ” he asked finally,"Mabel Blake?"
mdp.39015004315027	Is Mrs. Mabel Blake there? ” he asked finally,Mabel Blake?"
mdp.39015004315027	Is it about Tony? mdp.39015004315027 Is there anything we can do? ” Mr. Fenley asked Westerman.
mdp.39015004315027	Mabel, what are you getting at?
mdp.39015004315027	Mabel? ”Yes? ”"I still love you,"he said.
mdp.39015004315027	Mabel? ”Yes? ”"I still love you,"he said.
mdp.39015004315027	Mr. Fowler...? ” It was a distant, strained voice of a woman. mdp.39015004315027 Or maybe she's all mixed up, in a kind of fog or something; you know?
mdp.39015004315027	Sir? ” Minnie's voice came from the kitchen. mdp.39015004315027 Special effects?"
mdp.39015004315027	That depends —“ On what? ” SAVAGE HOLIDAY 185 wanted him to remain, but he went resolutely out.
mdp.39015004315027	Then it was from this floor? ” Mr. Fenley asked. mdp.39015004315027 Then why did n't you take me?"
mdp.39015004315027	Was there anybody with ’ i m?
mdp.39015004315027	Well, Erskine, what's on your mind? ” Warren had broken the ice, speaking through a lying smile. mdp.39015004315027 What about Tony? ” he asked her.
mdp.39015004315027	What are you doing to me?
mdp.39015004315027	What are you doing?
mdp.39015004315027	What are you talking about?
mdp.39015004315027	What did she say?
mdp.39015004315027	What do you mean?
mdp.39015004315027	What do you think I want to say, Mabel? ” he asked her in a breathless sort of way. mdp.39015004315027 What do you want with me, I asked you? ” Mabel asked, her eyes sleepy and swimming.
mdp.39015004315027	What good would that do?
mdp.39015004315027	What happened to my child?
mdp.39015004315027	What have I done to you? ” He hung his head. mdp.39015004315027 What's the matter, Mister?"
mdp.39015004315027	What? ” he answered. mdp.39015004315027 Where are you? ”"In Mike's Tavern.
mdp.39015004315027	Where are your little playmates? mdp.39015004315027 Where do you keep this? ” he asked.

mdp.39015004315027	Why?
mdp.39015004315027	Will she be able to get back in?
mdp.39015004315027	Would half an hour of music be enough, sir?
mdp.39015004315027	Yes, Minnie? ” “ Mrs. mdp.39015004315027 You do n't feel well, do you?"
mdp.39015004315027	You mean that you did n't tell him about Tony? ”No.
mdp.39015004315027	You never told them you had a son?
mdp.39015004315027	You work? ” he asked gently, leading her to talk. mdp.39015004315027 You'll have to notify your relatives, your husband's relatives, wo n't you? ”"No.
mdp.39015004315027	You're not angry...?
mdp.39015004315027	You're telling me?
mdp.39015004315027	**** “ Say, Tony, would n't you like some toys from the store down the street?"
mdp.39015004315027	- “ Do you ever think of changing your life, Mabel?
mdp.39015004315027	.."Oh, God,"she sighed,"would you do that?
mdp.39015004315027	... Then why all this perturbation, hesitation?
mdp.39015004315027	48 But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother?
mdp.39015004315027	72 RICHARD WRIGHT and had frightened the child, would n't the idea leap into everybody's mind that he had been up to something “ perverse ”?
mdp.39015004315027	94 RICHARD WRIGHT"Do n't you love your mother? ” Tony had not answered.
mdp.39015004315027	; “ Did they find out how he fell?"
mdp.39015004315027	AND HE HADN'T REALIZED THAT HIS BLEEDING LEFT PALM HAD LEFT THIS TELLTALE BLOTCH OF BLOOD... Now, how could be explain that stain of blood?
mdp.39015004315027	After rent, expenses, and the kickback I have to give to the nightclub owner, what have I left?
mdp.39015004315027	Ah, hell, why had he ever dared to talk to her in the first place?
mdp.39015004315027	All right, suppose someone had seen him?
mdp.39015004315027	And God knows what people think I'm do- ing... How could I look after Tony and earn my living at the same time?"
mdp.39015004315027	And I'd like to talk to you for about half an hour regarding arrangements for Tony, hunh? ”"Sure.
mdp.39015004315027	And Mrs. Blake, what could he tell her?
mdp.39015004315027	And about what?
mdp.39015004315027	And did n't he have a duty to let Mabel know somehow just what harm she'd done to little Tony?
mdp.39015004315027	And if he did n't believe it, would others?
mdp.39015004315027	And if he had anything to tell, should he not have told it already?
mdp.39015004315027	And only four hours ago he'd told her that he loved her?
mdp.39015004315027	And what was that bal- cony door doing open at this time of night, anyway?
mdp.39015004315027	And where, in the medley of these unrehearsed episodes, did the element of his guilt lie?
mdp.39015004315027	And who was that woman who'd called and said that she'd seen what had hap- pened?
mdp.39015004315027	And who'd believe her tale of “ naked'feet dangling"?
mdp.39015004315027	Blackmail?
mdp.39015004315027	Blake?"
mdp.39015004315027	Blast it all, what was he to do?
mdp.39015004315027	But do n't you think you're acting kind of hard...?
mdp.39015004315027	But from whom?
mdp.39015004315027	But had he the right to interfere?
mdp.39015004315027	But how could I help what hap- pened?
mdp.39015004315027	But how could I know that Tony would react so? ” “ Why did n't you knock at my door?"
mdp.39015004315027	But how could I know that Tony would react so? ” “ Why did n't you knock at my door?"
mdp.39015004315027	But how could he get back into his apartment?
mdp.39015004315027	But how could he?
mdp.39015004315027	But not in the way you are"“ What's wrong with me?"
mdp.39015004315027	But she should not drink so..."Is a Chinese restaurant all right with you? ” he asked her.
mdp.39015004315027	But some friends asked me over for a drink; I was feeling so low, so lonely, so blue... Are n't you com- friends of pick me up?
mdp.39015004315027	But that phone call...?
mdp.39015004315027	But that's what I saw...""You think you saw that? ” he asked her pointedly.
mdp.39015004315027	But was n't this question idle, premature as long as he did n't know if Tony was dead or alive?
mdp.39015004315027	But was this not his chance to save this woman, to own her, to hold her in his arms so that no one could, would want to claim her?
mdp.39015004315027	But what else could I do?"
mdp.39015004315027	But what had he to lose?
mdp.39015004315027	But what was he to do with the woman?
mdp.39015004315027	But what was the motive?
mdp.39015004315027	But what would he say to her?
mdp.39015004315027	But who could one summon when one's emotions went into a state of rebellion?
mdp.39015004315027	But why was he so certain that others would think him “ perverse ”?
mdp.39015004315027	But, if Mabel was in on this, would n't she be more concerned about avenging Tony's death?
mdp.39015004315027	But, if he did n't open that door, what was he to do?
mdp.39015004315027	But, if no one had seen him on that balcony, then why tell...?
mdp.39015004315027	But, if they had, would n't they have spoken to the police about it before now?
mdp.39015004315027	But, out of what would he bribe his way?
mdp.39015004315027	Could be, could n't it, Mr. Fowler?
mdp.39015004315027	Could he ever believe anything she told him?
mdp.39015004315027	Did I lie to you?
mdp.39015004315027	Did he go into your apartment, Erskine?
mdp.39015004315027	Did n't I?
mdp.39015004315027	Did n't she care?
mdp.39015004315027	Did n't she know a good man when she saw one?
mdp.39015004315027	Did she have someone waiting outside the door?
mdp.39015004315027	Did she still believe that she'd seen"naked feet dan- gling ”?
mdp.39015004315027	Did she suspect him of anything?
mdp.39015004315027	Did she think that he'd killed Tony and was now trying to kill her?
mdp.39015004315027	Did telling the truth mean that one had to expose one's self uselessly to slander of that sort?
mdp.39015004315027	Do n't you talk to them?
mdp.39015004315027	Do you know?
mdp.39015004315027	Do you want her to bring you some coffee?"
mdp.39015004315027	Do you want me to spell it out any clearer?
mdp.39015004315027	Do you want to 160 RICHARD WRIGHT buy me?
mdp.39015004315027	Do you want to go on like this?
mdp.39015004315027	Do you?"
mdp.39015004315027	Does n't she understand anything?
mdp.39015004315027	Erskine shook his head, trying to stave off emo- tional scenes stemming from his childhood... What was it that made him afraid to remember?
mdp.39015004315027	Erskine, what on earth was that?
mdp.39015004315027	Fowler, do n't you think I could make some breakfast for that Mrs. Blake?
mdp.39015004315027	Fowler?"

mdp.39015004315027	God- dammit, I've got to livel What in God's name do you think I'm doing... pa Should he believe her or not?
mdp.39015004315027	Good God, what could he do?
mdp.39015004315027	Good Lord... Maybe she'd seen it all, and was too stunned, too stricken to weep or scream...?
mdp.39015004315027	Had Tony fallen because he had been afraid of him, or had that bal- cony railing simply given way, or what?
mdp.39015004315027	Had anyone else noticed it?
mdp.39015004315027	Had anyone seen him on that bal- cony?
mdp.39015004315027	Had he reduced her to this?
mdp.39015004315027	Had n't he explained that spot of blood on the newspapers sufficiently for Mabel to forget it?
mdp.39015004315027	Had n't she sense enough to know that?
mdp.39015004315027	Had she found the letter?
mdp.39015004315027	Had someone seen Tony's little body falling, or had someone come across it in the street and phoned the police?
mdp.39015004315027	Had someone waited just long enough to hear his voice, and then hung up?
mdp.39015004315027	Had someone, besides Mrs. Blake, seen him naked on that balcony?
mdp.39015004315027	Had that been Mabel or had it been the other woman who'd called him twice before?
mdp.39015004315027	Had the Medical Examiner or the police found any clues that would make them suspect that some- one had been with Tony on that balcony?
mdp.39015004315027	Have n't I got enough trouble?
mdp.39015004315027	He had n't intended to; but they would say that he had done it on purpose...?
mdp.39015004315027	He had some pride, had n't he?
mdp.39015004315027	He had the right to find out who was doing all that screaming, had n't he?
mdp.39015004315027	He had to do something, but what?
mdp.39015004315027	He had to protest their abandonment of him... “ Why did n't you tell me that you wanted me out to make a place for your son?"
mdp.39015004315027	He knew that even now, if he told Mrs. Blake or the police how utterly blameless he'd been, he'd still feel guilty?
mdp.39015004315027	He rode down in the elevator, asking him- self: Now, who's Jack...?
mdp.39015004315027	He walked behind Westerman, still wear- ing his bathrobe, holding his Sunday newspaper... “ But what happened?"
mdp.39015004315027	He'd heard vaguely( was it from Mrs. Wester- man, the wife of the building superintendent?)
mdp.39015004315027	He'd offer her his con- dolences; but after that, what?
mdp.39015004315027	He'd tell'em what had happened... No one could possibly blame him, could they?

mdp.39015004315027	How are you?"
mdp.39015004315027	How could he again make a foolproof prison of himself for all of his remaining days?
mdp.39015004315027	How could he become his own absolute jailer and keep the peace within the warring pre- cincts of his heart?
mdp.39015004315027	How could he have felt such a headlong predilection for Mabel?
mdp.39015004315027	How could he suppress or throttle those slow and turgid stirrings of buried impulses now trying to come to resurrected life in the deep dark of him?
mdp.39015004315027	How could she laugh like that the day after her child was dead?
mdp.39015004315027	How could she so lightly accept another invitation?
mdp.39015004315027	How could there be any desire to deceive in anyone with a face so helpless and innocent as hers?
mdp.39015004315027	How could you do that?
mdp.39015004315027	How did one take a woman like this?
mdp.39015004315027	How did poor Tony fall? ”"Nobody seems to know,"Erskine said uneasily.
mdp.39015004315027	How had he gotten himself into this?
mdp.39015004315027	How much did she know or suspect?
mdp.39015004315027	How?
mdp.39015004315027	I could n't even break the door down —""Did your door slam very loud when it shut?"
mdp.39015004315027	I did n't think you'd act like this... What do you take me for?
mdp.39015004315027	I think she was confused and I'd say so in court under oath, so help me God. ” “ But how could she see onto my balcony?"
mdp.39015004315027	I'll tell you her very words...'Naked feet dangling in the air'... Can you imagine that?
mdp.39015004315027	I'm not for you- “ Why do you say that? ”"You wo n't like me.

mdp.39015004315027	If you keep bothering me, I'll kill you, you hear? ” “ Oh, Mabel, no! ” he pleaded.
mdp.39015004315027	In your apartment?
mdp.39015004315027	Is that what's worrying you? ” She sank to the floor, her hands clasped before her, unable, it seemed, to catch her breath.
mdp.39015004315027	Is that why you're drinking? ” he asked her in a whisper.
mdp.39015004315027	Is there any discus-: sion on this motion? ” “ Question!
mdp.39015004315027	Is there anything wrong? ” Er- skine asked.

mdp.39015004315027	It's none of their damned busi- ness, is it?"
mdp.39015004315027	Just a formality, you know?
mdp.39015004315027	Just ask for Mabel... We can fix a time for dinner and maybe you could pick me up, perhaps?
mdp.39015004315027	Just listen endlessly to that hollow, re- sounding knocking?
mdp.39015004315027	Just what, then, would his story be?

mdp.39015004315027	No; not at this time of night... Maybe it was the superin- tendent?
mdp.39015004315027	No; she'd never believe the simple truth, would she?
mdp.39015004315027	No; you wanted to ease me out""Fowler, are you mad, man? ” Ricky had bawled at him.

mdp.39015004315027	Now, she's alone... What kind of friends did she have, I ask you?"
mdp.39015004315027	Now, what was his future con- duct to be?

mdp.39015004315027	Oh, things like this unnerve me no end... And that Mrs. Blake lost her husband in the war, you know?
mdp.39015004315027	Or had he imagined that?
mdp.39015004315027	Or had she gone to meet some man and had lied to Minnie?
mdp.39015004315027	Or had they?
mdp.39015004315027	Or was she alone in this attack?

mdp.39015004315027	She was a hatcheck girl in a nightclub and maybe she'd confided her story to some of her boy or girl friends?
mdp.39015004315027	So what?
mdp.39015004315027	So, that was why she had had that Mona Lisa smile on her face when he had left her at her door this afternoon... “ Why did n't you?"
mdp.39015004315027	Some outsider made that phone call, but for what purpose?
mdp.39015004315027	Still nude, he crossed the room and put his mouth to the door panel and called out:"Say, will next week be all right?

mdp.39015004315027	Then, fearing that she was becoming too quickly intimate, she asked him: “ Say, do n't you want something? ” She glanced down at herself.

mdp.39015004315027	They were silent until their malted milks came and they sat sipping them through long straws, “ Why do n't you ever come to see my mama?"
mdp.39015004315027	They're taking him to the hospital now_"“ The hospital?"
mdp.39015004315027	This is Erskine... Good morning? ”"Oh, good morning, ” Mabel said in a sleepy, throaty voice.
mdp.39015004315027	This is no way to bury anybody... “ But have n't you notified Tony's father's people yet? ”"Not yet.
mdp.39015004315027	Tony knew him, admired him; then, why had he gone into such a panic...?
mdp.39015004315027	Tony was no doubt dead and it was too late to help him... And, if he did tell, what could he tell...?
mdp.39015004315027	Too small for kids to play on. ”"But is the child really dead? ” Erskine asked.
mdp.39015004315027	Understand?"
mdp.39015004315027	Wait for what?
mdp.39015004315027	Was it because he was old that her behavior seemed so odd?
mdp.39015004315027	Was it because he'd denied any knowledge of how the child had died that he felt guilty?
mdp.39015004315027	Was it possible that he'd felt like that last night?
mdp.39015004315027	Was n't his fear of her unnecessary?
mdp.39015004315027	Was n't that maybe why he was so fond of Tony?
mdp.39015004315027	Was she acting?
mdp.39015004315027	Was she afraid of him?
mdp.39015004315027	Was she grieving over Tony at all?
mdp.39015004315027	Was that image of those “ naked feet dangling ” in her mind still?
mdp.39015004315027	We could n't be together every minute..."“ But you'd be faithful to me, would n't you?"
mdp.39015004315027	We may have a son, hunh?
mdp.39015004315027	We want live wires with gray mat- ter upstairs; see?
mdp.39015004315027	We'll have something around which to build a joyful and solemn relationship, hunh?
mdp.39015004315027	Were the police examining that iron railing?
mdp.39015004315027	Were there shadows of that density lurking behind these bright, straight streets?
mdp.39015004315027	Westerman tells everybody that Tony was scared of me... No; no; no... Tony, Tony, what did mummy do to you?
mdp.39015004315027	Westerman?"
mdp.39015004315027	What about invitations?
mdp.39015004315027	What are you trying to do to me?
mdp.39015004315027	What could he do for Tony?
mdp.39015004315027	What could he do?
mdp.39015004315027	What could he do?
mdp.39015004315027	What could he do?
mdp.39015004315027	What could he do?.
mdp.39015004315027	What could he tell her?
mdp.39015004315027	What could they blame him for?
mdp.39015004315027	What dark nature did it possess to evoke such distress in him?
mdp.39015004315027	What did one do in situations like this?
mdp.39015004315027	What did she really think of that stain of blood on the newspapers?
mdp.39015004315027	What did that sullen tone of voice mean?
mdp.39015004315027	What good could telling do now?
mdp.39015004315027	What had be solved?
mdp.39015004315027	What had happened?
mdp.39015004315027	What had he done to her?
mdp.39015004315027	What had he done wrong?
mdp.39015004315027	What had he done?
mdp.39015004315027	What if Tony was still alive?
mdp.39015004315027	What in hell more do you want? ”"Honesty! ” Erskine had shouted.
mdp.39015004315027	What invis- ible walls could he now erect about his threatening feelings, desires?
mdp.39015004315027	What is it?"
mdp.39015004315027	What on earth do you think I'm doing with that boy?
mdp.39015004315027	What was happening?"
mdp.39015004315027	What was she thinking about?
mdp.39015004315027	What was the child getting at?
mdp.39015004315027	What would his friends and relatives think?
mdp.39015004315027	What would the Daily News or the Mirror think of it?
mdp.39015004315027	What's it to anybody on this damned earth?
mdp.39015004315027	What's that? ”"I want to surrender,"Erskine repeated.
mdp.39015004315027	What's that?"
mdp.39015004315027	What's wrong with me?
mdp.39015004315027	What'sit to you, hunh?
mdp.39015004315027	What, for example, did he want to do at this mo- ment?
mdp.39015004315027	What, then, had Tony associated him with that seemed so fantastic, fright- ful?
mdp.39015004315027	What, then, was that act?
mdp.39015004315027	What? ” he asked finally.
mdp.39015004315027	When you're with me, you're not thinking of me... What are you thinking of? ” Panic rose in him.
mdp.39015004315027	Where could he hide himself?
mdp.39015004315027	Where do you want them?
mdp.39015004315027	Where was that neat solution that he'd been hugging to his heart back there in that dim, song- filled church?
mdp.39015004315027	Which of us is really re- sponsible, who knows?
mdp.39015004315027	Who is my brother?
mdp.39015004315027	Who was she talking to now?
mdp.39015004315027	Who'd believe that?
mdp.39015004315027	Who's on the phone?"
mdp.39015004315027	Who's speaking?"
mdp.39015004315027	Who, then, was that woman?
mdp.39015004315027	Whom had he hated more?
mdp.39015004315027	Why did he love her one moment and hate her the next?
mdp.39015004315027	Why did that boy fling his paper about like this?
mdp.39015004315027	Why do n't you believe me?
mdp.39015004315027	Why do n't you take a sleeping pill and get some rest? ”"Ill try."
mdp.39015004315027	Why do you say that?"
mdp.39015004315027	Why had her plea of ignorance put him so quickly at ease?
mdp.39015004315027	Why had n't he 142 RICHARD WRIGHT caught an echo of grief in her voice?
mdp.39015004315027	Why had she dumped all of this upon him?
mdp.39015004315027	Why had the sudden sight of him- huge, hairy, sweating, panting- sent Tony reeling?
mdp.39015004315027	Why should I?
mdp.39015004315027	Why should I?"
mdp.39015004315027	Why should she do that?
mdp.39015004315027	Why was he letting himself get into such a state?
mdp.39015004315027	Why were they forever tinkering and changing things?
mdp.39015004315027	Why?
mdp.39015004315027	Why?
mdp.39015004315027	Why?
mdp.39015004315027	Why?
mdp.39015004315027	Why?"
mdp.39015004315027	Whypy"Talk to me some, hunh?
mdp.39015004315027	With music, sir?"
mdp.39015004315027	Wo n't you come, honey?"
mdp.39015004315027	Wo n't you phone me at: ATWATER 9- 0632?
mdp.39015004315027	Would it?
mdp.39015004315027	Would n't somebody see him staring down into that street and could n't it be said later that that was proof that he already knew what had happened?
mdp.39015004315027	Would n't that ac- count for the fact that his mysterious caller had not asked for a confirmation, had not waited for a reac- tion?
mdp.39015004315027	Would you acknowledge me before them?"
mdp.39015004315027	Would you believe it?
mdp.39015004315027	Yes; he could handle her... SAVAGE HOLIDAY 145 too soon? ” he asked her bluntly.
mdp.39015004315027	Yes; would n't being close to Mabel put that woman at a disadvantage?
mdp.39015004315027	Yet he sat, impatiently waiting for her return... Why was he so glad to welcome her gestures of modesty, even though he thought her a whore?
mdp.39015004315027	You do n't think that your mother would mind, do you?"
mdp.39015004315027	You understand?"
mdp.39015004315027	You understand?"
mdp.39015004315027	You're free; go... No?
mdp.39015004315027	You're out of date, behind the times; get it?
mdp.39015004315027	You're through, Fowler; hear?
mdp.39015004315027	and who are my brethren?
mdp.39015004315027	darling; wo n't you?"
mdp.39015004315027	ten do you ing?"
mdp.39015004315027	that she worked nights; but what kind of work...?
mdp.39015004315027	“ And whose business is it if I'm drunk?
mdp.39015004315027	“ Are you engaged to anyone?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ Be nice to me tonight, hunh?
mdp.39015004315027	“ But I thought we were having dinner together tonight?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ But how could you retire so early?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ But what?
mdp.39015004315027	“ But why on earth did n't you call Tony and tell him to get Westerman-?
mdp.39015004315027	“ Could such a thing happen?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ D- do you t- think that he w- was scared of... scared of that, Erskine? ” she asked in a broken voice.
mdp.39015004315027	“ Did that person whose feet I saw...?
mdp.39015004315027	“ Did you sleep well? ” he asked her; he was try- ing to picture how she looked in bed and his skin tingled.
mdp.39015004315027	“ Did you?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ Do n't you think you've had enough? ” Erskine asked her in a timid whisper.
mdp.39015004315027	“ Do n't you?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ Do you think Tony was hurt before he fell? ”"I do n't know,"he said.
mdp.39015004315027	“ Erskine, what about your family and friends?
mdp.39015004315027	“ Erskine, why are you treating me like this?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ For real?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ Go then; I'll go to the dogs quietly... You do n't wanna run?
mdp.39015004315027	“ God, I want to die... Oh, Mark, why did you die... Oh, Mark, why did you die and leave me like this?
mdp.39015004315027	“ He comes to the Red Moon to drink"“ But that does n't give him the run of your house, does it? ” She stood and her face flamed scarlet.
mdp.39015004315027	“ He must have been killed as soon as he hit the pavement..."“ The balcony on this floor? ” Mrs. Fenley asked.
mdp.39015004315027	“ How many guests are you inviting, sir?
mdp.39015004315027	“ How's your mother?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ I heard him crying this morning,"“ Crying?
mdp.39015004315027	“ I pray for you to believe me; I beg you with all my heart... What 206 RICHARD WRIGHT do you want me to do to prove it?
mdp.39015004315027	“ I'm through; I'm licked... You'll teach me, tell me what's right? ”.
mdp.39015004315027	“ It 11 pass..."“ But do n't you want somebody to be excited about you? ” he asked.
mdp.39015004315027	“ It makes me a little scared. ”"Why?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ Just keep these for Tony, wo n't you? ” he'd asked her.
mdp.39015004315027	“ Like a rifle shot-"“ What time was that?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ Mabel?
mdp.39015004315027	“ Maybe she does n't want me to love her-"“ Why do you say that? ”"I dunno.
mdp.39015004315027	“ Oh, Mr. Fowler, do you know what has hap- pened?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ Say, what do you want with me, anyhow? ”"Are n't you hungry?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ Say, what do you want with me, anyhow? ”"Are n't you hungry?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ Say, you did n't phone me today, did you? ” She seemed startled; her lips moved silently before she answered.
mdp.39015004315027	“ Scotch and soda?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ See? ” he asked, pointing.
mdp.39015004315027	“ She does n't have to be so blasted careless, does she?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ So what?
mdp.39015004315027	“ So, you're a snob, hunh?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ Suppose I'm selling myself, hunh?
mdp.39015004315027	“ Tell me, what plans have you for Tony?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ Tell me: will you marry me?
mdp.39015004315027	“ That railing came smack out of that wall... How on earth could that happen? ” Westerman advanced upon the balcony now.
mdp.39015004315027	“ That seems odd — ”"What's so odd about it?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ The Red Moon?
mdp.39015004315027	“ The mother would n't mind if we put the toy pistol in the child's hand, would she, sir? ” Jenkins asked with a shadow of a smile.
mdp.39015004315027	“ Then God wants them to be angry?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ Then what are you jealous of? ”"You! ” “ But what have I doneº"she cried.
mdp.39015004315027	“ Then why do n't you call up and ask her to let you come over, like the others do?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ Then you'll marry me?
mdp.39015004315027	“ Then, what does she do to you to make you say that she does n't want you to love her, Tony?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ This is awful_""Is this where he fell from?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ This morning, I think..."“ This morning? ” Mr. Fenley echoed.
mdp.39015004315027	“ Wait, will you? ” Erskine screamed, his body shak- ing with rage, shame, despair, and a sickness which he could not name.
mdp.39015004315027	“ We'll go after your drink, wo n't we?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ We'll make up for little Tony, wo n't we?
mdp.39015004315027	“ Were you alone?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ What about him?
mdp.39015004315027	“ What can we do for her? ” Eva asked of the table in general.
mdp.39015004315027	“ What did I do to my child?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ What do we care about who's calling?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ What'll you have to drink?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ What's all this about little Tony?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ What's the matter? ” he asked.
mdp.39015004315027	“ What?
mdp.39015004315027	“ When you were a boy, did you sleep in bed with your mother?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ Who is it? ” he called, turning and standing in the bathroom door, his right hand lifted to reach for his robe.
mdp.39015004315027	“ Why do n't you leave me alone, if you think that I'm not good enough for you?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ Why do you and that Mrs. Westerman keep riding me?
mdp.39015004315027	“ Why should I?
mdp.39015004315027	“ Will fifty seats be enough, sir?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ You did n't dare tell me-""So what?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ You do n't want me to speak to my friends over the phone?
mdp.39015004315027	“ You owe me two- twenty; that right?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ You too?
mdp.39015004315027	“ You want something, sir?
mdp.39015004315027	“ You'd better make it fifteen seats_-"“ Will fifteen seats be enough, sir?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ You're inviting some friends, are n't you?
mdp.39015004315027	“ You're really so silly, like a boy...""We'll redeem everything, wo n't we, honey?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ You're sure it's no trouble? ” “ None at all.
mdp.39015004315027	“ You're sure that you're not drunk? ” “ I'm not drunk. ”"Do you realize what you just said to me?"
mdp.39015004315027	“ You're sure that you're not drunk? ” “ I'm not drunk. ”"Do you realize what you just said to me?"
mdp.39015016454574	A friend of yours- man or woman? ” pressed Murphy. mdp.39015016454574 A little drink would n't go bad, eh, George?
mdp.39015016454574	A shore dinner? mdp.39015016454574 A what?"
mdp.39015016454574	All de time, and ah bin livin'here nigh to fifty yeahs. ” “ Did n't you ever think of doing anything about it?
mdp.39015016454574	And do you mean that, even after America went in, you and your association still felt the same way about it?
mdp.39015016454574	And is Marcus still in —?
mdp.39015016454574	And then what?
mdp.39015016454574	And then —?

mdp.39015016454574	Do n't you know? mdp.39015016454574 For what?"
mdp.39015016454574	Forgot something?
mdp.39015016454574	He struts around like Hamlet looking for his father's ghost. ” “ Is that supposed to be funny?
mdp.39015016454574	How come de co’poration to make charges'gainst de High Commander when we is all satisfied? ” argued one giant bystander in the throng. mdp.39015016454574 How long yo ’ been here? ” suddenly queried Marcus.

mdp.39015016454574	Hutson. ”Where de hell dese niggers gets dere name from?"
mdp.39015016454574	I know what title you deserve. ” “ Tell me, and I'll ask the High Commander to make me that. ” “ Grand Kidder. ”What's that?"
mdp.39015016454574	I suppose you prefer your pure charcoal, eh, Marcus?
mdp.39015016454574	If that's so, how do you know about shore dinners? mdp.39015016454574 Is Mar... ” started Jeremiah, then corrected himself:"Is Mr. Cox in?

mdp.39015016454574	Well, how in blazes are you, Marcus? mdp.39015016454574 Well, if that is so, what's all this fuss about then?
mdp.39015016454574	Well, picketing is a perfectly lawful act, is n't it? ” inter- jected Jeremiah. mdp.39015016454574 Well, what about your children?
mdp.39015016454574	Well, what do you mean by,'if they will serve us'? mdp.39015016454574 Well, ” and he paused,"when are we going to make it?"
mdp.39015016454574	Well, ” he abruptly opened, looking towards Murphy,what's de verdict?
mdp.39015016454574	What are we going to eat?
mdp.39015016454574	What has that to do with it?
mdp.39015016454574	What is it?
mdp.39015016454574	What is the general purpose of your organization?
mdp.39015016454574	What kind of a car?
mdp.39015016454574	What time do you expect Murphy?
mdp.39015016454574	What yo ’ thinks of my speech?
mdp.39015016454574	What's de matter wid you, mon?
mdp.39015016454574	What's de matter?
mdp.39015016454574	What's the purpose of this Movement? mdp.39015016454574 What?"
mdp.39015016454574	When's the trial coming up?
mdp.39015016454574	Where is she?
mdp.39015016454574	White or black?
mdp.39015016454574	Who are they, Marcus? mdp.39015016454574 Who says they need help?
mdp.39015016454574	Why ca n't we start a newspaper?
mdp.39015016454574	Why, I'm out with you now, am I not?
mdp.39015016454574	Would you say a half- million?
mdp.39015016454574	You do? ”Yes, sir, I tends to dat; and,'sides, I knows all yo'is goin'to say.
mdp.39015016454574	You mean working for Marcus Cox and his bunch of Negroes? mdp.39015016454574 You own an automobile, do n't you?"
mdp.39015016454574	Your Worship? mdp.39015016454574 Your mother?"
mdp.39015016454574	'Course, I'se only illustratin', but you gits my pint, does yo ”?"
mdp.39015016454574	'“ What first papers? ” “ To be an American. ” “ You mean because I said'stick around'? ”"Surely!
mdp.39015016454574	'“ What first papers? ” “ To be an American. ” “ You mean because I said'stick around'? ”"Surely!
mdp.39015016454574	'” “ How did you guess it?"
mdp.39015016454574	'” “ What happened then? ”.
mdp.39015016454574	'”"Who's dat man'Jake'?"
mdp.39015016454574	... Where, did you say?
mdp.39015016454574	106 The Black Challenge"Well, what about something to eat? ” questioned Jere- miah.
mdp.39015016454574	126 The Black Challenge “ Why doan you sues'em and collec'damages? ” Marcus questioned.
mdp.39015016454574	136 The Black Challenge “ Yes’m. ” “ Did he give any name?
mdp.39015016454574	38 The Black Challenge"So you could n't make it- you split up, eh?"
mdp.39015016454574	: “ That you, Jerry? ” The voice sounded distant, far off, and, somewhat plaintive.
mdp.39015016454574	Am I? ” he persisted.
mdp.39015016454574	And dat hanging lamp?
mdp.39015016454574	And had they not all sailed down the bay the Saturday before with flags flying and brass band tearing away on deck How come?
mdp.39015016454574	And if he were equipped, would his temperament enable him to do so?
mdp.39015016454574	And then, after a pregnant pause: “ I'm be- ginning to be crazy about it myself. ” “ Yo'knows something, King?"
mdp.39015016454574	And to what account was Marcus intent on turning this power?
mdp.39015016454574	And was not the love affair of John Smith and Pocahontas a classic of white America?
mdp.39015016454574	And who may span that boundless sea, Or limit its embrace?
mdp.39015016454574	And you, Ruth? ” turning to the olive- complexioned young woman.
mdp.39015016454574	Are n't there plenty of places up there?"
mdp.39015016454574	Are n't we all col- ored people just the same?"
mdp.39015016454574	Are you thinking of going there?"
mdp.39015016454574	At the subway station, her father said: “ Come, go with me, child. ”"Where?"
mdp.39015016454574	At thirty- six years of age, was he too old to pull up stakes and start anew?
mdp.39015016454574	Back to the African jungles- habitat of lions and tigers and all sorts of strange, wild animals, among them savage human beings?
mdp.39015016454574	But how is that to be done?
mdp.39015016454574	But out here in the woods?
mdp.39015016454574	But shel What did she care?
mdp.39015016454574	But tell me, what's the shouting all about? ”"What shouting?"
mdp.39015016454574	But tell me, what's the shouting all about? ”"What shouting?"
mdp.39015016454574	But what's de diff?
mdp.39015016454574	But what's de diff?
mdp.39015016454574	But where was Cox, the defendant?
mdp.39015016454574	Chai'man, I craves the privilege of a few remarks. ” “ What's the name, please?"
mdp.39015016454574	Coates, ” smoothly began Owen Murphy, “ I show you a piece of paper and ask you what that is- if you know?"
mdp.39015016454574	Cox?"
mdp.39015016454574	Dat's de fustest Nigger king dere ebber was. ”"Wah yo'talkin''bout? ” interjected another.
mdp.39015016454574	De world?
mdp.39015016454574	Den what yo ’ wants?
mdp.39015016454574	Dey always travel'roun'in Ha'lem together. ” “ What's his name?"
mdp.39015016454574	Dey's goin'to say: What de hell dose Niggers knows about runnin'ships?
mdp.39015016454574	Did he think he was his master, his boss?
mdp.39015016454574	Did n't I tells you de oder night dat money, money is de great t'ing?
mdp.39015016454574	Did n't he have fine sensibili- ties, fine ideals, fine fancies?
mdp.39015016454574	Did n't you think I had one?"
mdp.39015016454574	Do n't you fellows know it's agen the law to transport liquor?
mdp.39015016454574	Do n't you know dis car belong to de High Commander?
mdp.39015016454574	Do n't you know?
mdp.39015016454574	Do you think you are conferring a favor on anybody by refraining from running around with white men?
mdp.39015016454574	Doan yo'knows a king when yo'sees one?
mdp.39015016454574	Doan you'members I tells yo'so?"
mdp.39015016454574	Does yo'thinks you can look into dese things?"
mdp.39015016454574	Eb, has yo'got yo'gun?"
mdp.39015016454574	Eh’nt yo ’ hear de news?
mdp.39015016454574	Every time dere is a lynching dey raises some money; den dey spends dat, see?
mdp.39015016454574	Everybody knows that Negroes are a downtrodden people and need their rights protected. ” “ Their rights?
mdp.39015016454574	Finally, after a pause: “ Will you come over to de office tomorrow mawning'bout eleven?
mdp.39015016454574	Finally, with deliberate slow- ness, he answered: “ What in hell is that to you?
mdp.39015016454574	For instant? ” urged Marcus, as Jeremiah hesitated.
mdp.39015016454574	From whence had this ability to emit such harmony come to these Negroes?
mdp.39015016454574	Great, ehn't dey?
mdp.39015016454574	Guess we'll have to postpone our meetin'. ” “ What's it all about, Marcus?
mdp.39015016454574	Had he not built, purchased, created, somehow, a great big ship for them?
mdp.39015016454574	Had he not worked wonders for them?
mdp.39015016454574	Had he, by virtue of his mixed heritage, become emasculated of the strength that might have been his had he been a purely white or a purely black man?
mdp.39015016454574	Had n't he as much refinement as any white man in the world?
mdp.39015016454574	Had not her own experiences taught her anything?
mdp.39015016454574	Had they not also survived?
mdp.39015016454574	Half- past nine?
mdp.39015016454574	Have you met him or seen him?"
mdp.39015016454574	He extended his arm: “ May I?"
mdp.39015016454574	He wondered: could this be true in his case?
mdp.39015016454574	Hear that?"
mdp.39015016454574	Her mood changed, and she said in a low, pleading voice: “ Is that nice, Jerry?
mdp.39015016454574	How about dat indictment?
mdp.39015016454574	How about you, Lido?
mdp.39015016454574	How are Americans going to feel about your ship project?"
mdp.39015016454574	How long's de worl'been takin'care of herself?"
mdp.39015016454574	How much closer could you have been to him, anyhow?
mdp.39015016454574	How much had all these assets weighed in that restaurant a short while ago?
mdp.39015016454574	How shall we do this?
mdp.39015016454574	How was he going to gird himself to meet it?
mdp.39015016454574	How would a black man have answered it?
mdp.39015016454574	How would a white man have answered this assault had the situation been reversed?
mdp.39015016454574	How would you like to be such a character? ” “ Hush yo'nonsens, King.
mdp.39015016454574	How?
mdp.39015016454574	I do so love'em, only ” she hesitated, “ I wonder whether it's all right?
mdp.39015016454574	I hope that when the Good Lord calls me, And says: Who's a- going there?
mdp.39015016454574	I understan'that you took dat little girl out de other night in yo'car and yo'insults her. ” “ She told you that?"
mdp.39015016454574	I was Gran''Sistant Treasurer. ” “ Are you still that in the corporation?"
mdp.39015016454574	I wonder whether they will serve us?"
mdp.39015016454574	I'm not so dumb after all, am I?
mdp.39015016454574	I've been waiting out here for three- quarters of an hour. ” “ Oh, have you?
mdp.39015016454574	If I were Marcus, I would hire the best trial lawyer that money can buy. ” “ Why do n't you talk to him?
mdp.39015016454574	If eventually, why not now?"
mdp.39015016454574	If so, how divide himself?
mdp.39015016454574	If you ca n't get what you are looking for, why not do the next best thing?"
mdp.39015016454574	Is n't Doctor Proudfoot a regular brick to turn this party on for me before I go away?"
mdp.39015016454574	Is n't dat as good as anyt’ing else?
mdp.39015016454574	Is n't that what they have'em for, to serve people? ” Lido looked covertly over at her companion.
mdp.39015016454574	Is that a nice thing for you to say to me- after I've been so honest and frank with you?
mdp.39015016454574	Is that the thanks I get for my frankness?"
mdp.39015016454574	Is that true, Mr. Cox? ” Murphy had goaded and jeered Marcus to the limit of exasperation.
mdp.39015016454574	Jeremiah paused for a moment, then remarked:"You know something, Marcus? ”"No, what's dat?"
mdp.39015016454574	Jeremiah paused for a moment, then remarked:"You know something, Marcus? ”"No, what's dat?"
mdp.39015016454574	King?"
mdp.39015016454574	M.?"
mdp.39015016454574	Marcus Cox held out his hand and drawled slowly, “ Howdye do, Murphy? ” Jeremiah rose as Murphy came up the steps.
mdp.39015016454574	Marry Marcus, eh?
mdp.39015016454574	Me?
mdp.39015016454574	Mind- 202 The Black Challenge ful of the gibes and sneers and wisecracks which occasionally shot through the stark, surprised silence of the watchers?
mdp.39015016454574	Mothers, all the world over, are static, definite persons- but fathers?
mdp.39015016454574	Mr. Cox?
mdp.39015016454574	Mr. King- Jerry?
mdp.39015016454574	Murphy?"
mdp.39015016454574	My idea was a more serious —"“ When does we start, boy?"
mdp.39015016454574	No objection to that, is there? ”"I’spose not. ” “ Would you like to meet him?"
mdp.39015016454574	No objection to that, is there? ”"I’spose not. ” “ Would you like to meet him?"
mdp.39015016454574	No?
mdp.39015016454574	Now, which is it- you black brothers of this movement?
mdp.39015016454574	Of course, we are both in the same boat, and this is n't meant as criti- cism; we're only talking between us, understand? ” Her mother nodded.
mdp.39015016454574	Oh, doan worry, ” as Jeremiah raised The Black Challenge 73 in de debil's name should Niggers want to copy de white man all de time?
mdp.39015016454574	Or was it because of her grace and beauty and- manner?
mdp.39015016454574	Or was it his master?
mdp.39015016454574	Or, was it that, in spite of those experiences, she was flattered that her daughter had arrested the atten- tions of a white man?
mdp.39015016454574	Proudfoot?
mdp.39015016454574	Putting it 146 The Black Challenge to his lips for what seemed to Jeremiah an ungodly long minute, he remarked: “ Whiskey, eh?
mdp.39015016454574	Race?
mdp.39015016454574	Re- sort to the courts?
mdp.39015016454574	Say, King, does yo'believes all you reads in de Bible?"
mdp.39015016454574	Say, King, where de hell you t'inks de moon go ef we knocks her over? ”"Search me, Marcus, you're doing the knocking."
mdp.39015016454574	Say, King, yo ’ knows what I'd like to be?"
mdp.39015016454574	Self- conscious?
mdp.39015016454574	Shall human beings shrink?
mdp.39015016454574	She has been takin'care of herself dese- how many years, King, tell me dat?
mdp.39015016454574	She stared evenly at Jeremiah and, with much of ice in her voice, questioned: “ What's become of yours?"
mdp.39015016454574	She was out last night when you had supper with us. ”"Oh, she lives at Mr. Cox's house, does she?"
mdp.39015016454574	Should she call her mother?
mdp.39015016454574	So I says again, what's de diff, King?
mdp.39015016454574	Step right in de office and de hon’able Chamberlain Phillips will fix yo'alls up. ”"Hear dat, Nigger, ai n't I tole you so?
mdp.39015016454574	Suppose he like black clothes and I like red clothes- ain't my red clothes as good as his black clothes?
mdp.39015016454574	Suppose they should grow up and want to eat on the boardwalk?"
mdp.39015016454574	Suppose we drops down and looks dem over, eh King? ” Jeremiah agreed.
mdp.39015016454574	Suppose we phone you? ” Marcus Cox thought a moment.
mdp.39015016454574	Suppose you had a whack at the remaking of things, what would you do?"
mdp.39015016454574	Tell me, just what do we look like in our present position?".
mdp.39015016454574	That black, moon- faced Obadiah Jackson?
mdp.39015016454574	That was a great piece of cross- examination I conducted, was n't it now?
mdp.39015016454574	That'll be time enough, wo n't it? ” he questioned.
mdp.39015016454574	That's not the answer to the problem. ” “ What is de answer, den? ”.
mdp.39015016454574	The Black Challenge 105 “ Me?
mdp.39015016454574	The Black Challenge 223"Well, doan yo'thinks we want to go out of Ha'lem sometimes?"
mdp.39015016454574	The Black Challenge 39 “ Udder things like what?
mdp.39015016454574	The impohtant thing is that you is here ”; and, after a pause, “ What yo'thinks o'doing?"
mdp.39015016454574	The streets of Harlem?
mdp.39015016454574	The worst that can happen to him is a prison term. ” 204 The Black Challenge"A prison term?
mdp.39015016454574	Then, turning to Jeremiah: “ What's de matter with you?
mdp.39015016454574	This helps, does n't it?"
mdp.39015016454574	To whom hab I de honah of addressin'myself to?"
mdp.39015016454574	To whom was this invitation addressed, anyhow?
mdp.39015016454574	Was he being sardonic, or what?
mdp.39015016454574	Was he not well equipped?
mdp.39015016454574	Was he serious?
mdp.39015016454574	Was he serious?
mdp.39015016454574	Was he, Jeremiah King, equipped to contribute any real help to this black dreamer and his followers?
mdp.39015016454574	Was he, Jeremiah, a weak and sexless thing?
mdp.39015016454574	Was it because of her light color?
mdp.39015016454574	Was it not his friend, his pal?
mdp.39015016454574	Was it or was it not some contribu- tion of worth to so- called civilized man?
mdp.39015016454574	Was it the whiskey which had so stimulated him, or was it some latent thing in his blood coming to life?
mdp.39015016454574	Was n't this place good enough?
mdp.39015016454574	Was not England, the birthplace of his Caucasian mother, as much his home as Africa, the land of his paternal ancestors?
mdp.39015016454574	Was that white district attorney fellah wid him?
mdp.39015016454574	Was this man actually referring to him?
mdp.39015016454574	We knows this fellow Murphy there a while now?
mdp.39015016454574	We want what they have, and if we are fortunate enough to be able to get it without question, why not take it?
mdp.39015016454574	We'se got to take her- she's de enemy, see?
mdp.39015016454574	Well, what yo'thinks of it?
mdp.39015016454574	Were they not all members of a common conspiracy?
mdp.39015016454574	Were they not the United Negro Movement of the United States and of the World, and was not that Association they- themselves?
mdp.39015016454574	What connection could there be between portly, squat black Marcus Cox and this striking, exotic creature?
mdp.39015016454574	What de hell does I cares what de white man t'inks of me?
mdp.39015016454574	What did she hope could be gained from such a relationship between her colored daugh- • ter and this white man?

mdp.39015009022487	Gone? ”Where? ” Connie and Lem bent over their mother while Maggie slid forward on the edge of her chair.
mdp.39015009022487	Got enough? ” he asked as they paused to change sides. mdp.39015009022487 H'm... ” he murmured casually,"razor cut, eh?
mdp.39015009022487	Have n't I always been willing to let you have what I can? ” reminded Connie. mdp.39015009022487 Have n't I said that is n't the sensible way? ”"Give it to him, Dad! ” exclaimed Essie maliciously.
mdp.39015009022487	Have you taken Mr John- son over on Federal and Dearborn and into some of the blocks on the other streets below the Forties?
mdp.39015009022487	Have you taken your medicine? ” she demanded. mdp.39015009022487 He signed a'greement an'ever'thing-"Did you go to a notary?"
mdp.39015009022487	He's sick- can't you see? ” Joe looked more closely at his son. mdp.39015009022487 Help me wid these vegetables, will you, Nick? ”"Here's some!
mdp.39015009022487	Hey, what's the big idea?
mdp.39015009022487	How are the two white ladies? ” asked Mae Carter merrily just before New Year's. mdp.39015009022487 How could you talk so to your own mother? ”"Oh, stop it! ” commanded Connie relentlessly.
mdp.39015009022487	How do you know you're going to get your job back? ” he demanded. mdp.39015009022487 How in the name of all that's holy can they live in such a hole?"
mdp.39015009022487	How much did you take him for? ” whispered Clo as they were conducted by a female attendant to the floor above. mdp.39015009022487 How much do I owe you? ”"You just scrape up enough for that dinner next Sunday,"replied Essie.
mdp.39015009022487	How you know so much'bout'er? ” he questioned. mdp.39015009022487 How you likes my cooks? ” She waved to the long range where two young men moved swiftly between it and the serving table.
mdp.39015009022487	How's business, feller? ” Maggie Dawson stood in front of her little restaurant, her arms wrapped in the folds of a greasy apron. mdp.39015009022487 How's that? ” Paul held a small mirror to the back of Jeff's head.
mdp.39015009022487	I do your typing for you, do n't I? ” asserted Essie de- fensively. mdp.39015009022487 I reckon Sam done told you'bout me? ” He chuckled as Paul nodded.
mdp.39015009022487	I reckon we kin make it all right by ourselves, eh, gal? ” he muttered, tossing the letter aside. mdp.39015009022487 I suppose you heard I had a little luck, so you decided you'd come around and collect again, eh?
mdp.39015009022487	I want to sell- does n't make much difference to me what it is, so long as people want it and buy it. ”You done had trainin', ai n't you?
mdp.39015009022487	I was just thinking how closely you resemble someone I know. ” “ Wife? ” Essie held her breath. mdp.39015009022487 I'll show'em! ” “ What you aimin'to do? ” asked Jethro.
mdp.39015009022487	I've been thinking the same thing for the last two months. ”Well, what's the matter now?"
mdp.39015009022487	If you'd- a had a man like who?
mdp.39015009022487	Is it really like everybody says? mdp.39015009022487 Is there a counsel for the defense? ” A hawk- nosed mulatto in shiny blue serge stepped for- ward and presented himself to the Bench.
mdp.39015009022487	Is you a barber, sho'nuf? ” he demanded eagerly. mdp.39015009022487 Is you plumb gone crazy, Maggie?
mdp.39015009022487	It's hot in here anyway, is n't it, boys? ” Her voice was its most seductive, and she moistened her carmined lips. mdp.39015009022487 It's my wedding, is n't it? ” she resumed.
mdp.39015009022487	Just when do I get my week's dough? ”Look in my pocketbook,"said his mother wearily.
mdp.39015009022487	Keep telling you I'd rather be a lamppost in Harlem than a big shot in my home town! ”Who do you think you're stuffing?"
mdp.39015009022487	Know what?
mdp.39015009022487	Listen, cat, ” growled Holt,if you know what's the number, tell us — before I throw the whole room on you! ”"Türow on who?
mdp.39015009022487	Look here, ” said Joe as Jane got up to go,whyn't you git some cops to go ’ long wid you? ”"No sir! ” replied Jane.
mdp.39015009022487	Look- it them shacks! ”You know whar they's went? ” asked Sam.
mdp.39015009022487	Maggie jes'gittin'up?
mdp.39015009022487	May I see the news? ”Sure, go right ahead.
mdp.39015009022487	Maybe? mdp.39015009022487 Mrs Benson, what's the trouble?
mdp.39015009022487	Nigger- rich, eh?
mdp.39015009022487	Not bad, eh? ” chuckled Clo. mdp.39015009022487 Now what? ” he demanded.
mdp.39015009022487	Now who's that staring at us? ” whispered Clo. mdp.39015009022487 Now why be like that?"
mdp.39015009022487	Now, children, you know what you're going to do for me this morning? mdp.39015009022487 Oh, for cryin'out loud, Mother- how do you think we could have paid the bills we owed?
mdp.39015009022487	Oh, so that's your game? ” she panted angrily. mdp.39015009022487 Oh-'tis you, is it, Miss Saunders?"
mdp.39015009022487	Old families? ” laughed Connie lightly. mdp.39015009022487 Paul- Paul Johnson. ”"Got a license?"
mdp.39015009022487	People do n't actually live in those awful places, do they? mdp.39015009022487 Play up to him and tap him for money like some people I know?"
mdp.39015009022487	Reckon they's all headin'fo ’ the same place- Chicago? ”Near'bout.
mdp.39015009022487	Remember how I used to have to bring our water from your house? ” she recalled. mdp.39015009022487 Say, did n't I have one of your wife's babies?
mdp.39015009022487	Say, how did we get into that? ” she exclaimed. mdp.39015009022487 Say, what are you dreaming about? ” Connie did not look up.
mdp.39015009022487	Say, what are you driving at?
mdp.39015009022487	Say, what's eating you?
mdp.39015009022487	Say, who plays the tennis? ” He balanced one and O Canaan! mdp.39015009022487 See the big boy at Essie's side with the suspicious bulge at his hip?
mdp.39015009022487	See them? ” asked Joe. mdp.39015009022487 Sho'looks fittin'in that white, do n't they, boy?
mdp.39015009022487	So Ellen and Jimmy- Lew are proud parents of a boy?
mdp.39015009022487	So ya wanted to make time with a chippie and let me take a rap, eh? ”Wait a minute, for God's sake!
mdp.39015009022487	So you want to open a beauty shop, eh? ” she said when Essie had divulged her plan. mdp.39015009022487 So you wants a job, eh? ” Jeff turned to his companion.
mdp.39015009022487	So you're down and out today, are you? ” said Jane, rais- ing her thin eyebrows. mdp.39015009022487 Still figuring, eh, Russ? ” mocked Paul, stripping off his clothes.
mdp.39015009022487	Surprised? ” she questioned, placing cool fingers in his hot, moist hand. mdp.39015009022487 Take in roomers? ” cried Christine.
mdp.39015009022487	That silly Ronnie Brown? mdp.39015009022487 The chap there who could pass for your younger brother?
mdp.39015009022487	The room? mdp.39015009022487 True- life stories? ”"No, I simply want to play fair with you.
mdp.39015009022487	Two? ” Paul looked his surprise. mdp.39015009022487 Was she about my size and big up here? ” She indicated her small bust.
mdp.39015009022487	We're always saying what we ca n't do instead of what we can do! ”Is that sho'nuf right'bout them furriners, son?"
mdp.39015009022487	Well, Junior, what you doin'in the house this time o'day? mdp.39015009022487 Well, boy, you's really gittin'ready, ai n't you? ”"Yes ma'am, A'nt Lizzie, ” replied Paul.
mdp.39015009022487	Well, feller, how we doin'now? ” she grinned to Joe. mdp.39015009022487 Well, how do you gentlemen like my proposition?"
mdp.39015009022487	Well, how do you like our little town, now that you've had a real chance to see it? mdp.39015009022487 Well, sir! ”"See the slinky kid with the black gown which she be- lieves makes her sophisticated?
mdp.39015009022487	Well, you went through with it, did n't you?
mdp.39015009022487	Whar you bound? ” called Sam to one old man whose hair was a mat of white above a dried apple of a face. mdp.39015009022487 Whar you gwine?"
mdp.39015009022487	What I want wid some old dried- up man? ” scorned Mag- gie,Be better'n lettin'a no- good cuss like this guy do you out'n yo'money!"
mdp.39015009022487	What are the charges here? ” The judge was lean, gray, saturnine, and spoke with the weary voice of a confirmed cynic. mdp.39015009022487 What are you- a night mechanic? ” whispered Paul, tittering"No, a machinist,"she corrected and laughed noiselessly.
mdp.39015009022487	What did he mean by that? ” Essie looked across the top of the typewriter at Joe. mdp.39015009022487 What did you do when Connie was here?"
mdp.39015009022487	What do you think I am — a streetwalker? ”Well,"puzzled Essie,"you as good as said so."
mdp.39015009022487	What do you think they'll do to her? ”They oughta give'er a medal! ” growled Joe.
mdp.39015009022487	What do you want? ” he snapped peevishly. mdp.39015009022487 What good'll that do? ” scoffed Paul, shutting his two shabby suitcases.
mdp.39015009022487	What have you been reading? ” he rasped. mdp.39015009022487 What style, mister? ” he asked, poising his clippers.
mdp.39015009022487	What time is it? ”Ten o'clock. ”"Holy mackerel!
mdp.39015009022487	What was it this time last year, Russ? ” asked Patton. mdp.39015009022487 What we gone do now, Mistah Joe?"
mdp.39015009022487	What you doin', man? ” he inquired, wiping his face. mdp.39015009022487 What you want do — bust it?"
mdp.39015009022487	What you want? ” she demanded, her breath reeking of whisky. mdp.39015009022487 What ’re you down here for — another pappyless baby? ”"Not this time,"she answered, sitting beside him.
mdp.39015009022487	What'd I tell you'bout raisin'a ruckus fust thing in the mornin'? mdp.39015009022487 What're ya doin'in there? ” she demanded again, her right hand fumbling at her pocketbook.
mdp.39015009022487	What's a guy going to do if he ca n't get a break? ” coun- tered Bob. mdp.39015009022487 What's done happen to Jim Ed Boozey an'them Wilsons from up the country?
mdp.39015009022487	What's going on down there?
mdp.39015009022487	What's it to you? ” snapped Essie. mdp.39015009022487 What's she doing out in all this? ” exclaimed Connie.
mdp.39015009022487	What's so remarkable about it? ” she demanded. mdp.39015009022487 What's that correct digit going to be, A’nt Lizzie?"
mdp.39015009022487	What's that- a new one your mother's brought on you? ” she asked. mdp.39015009022487 What's the matter, Sis?
mdp.39015009022487	What's the matter? ” asked Paul quickly, treading water. mdp.39015009022487 What's the matter?"
mdp.39015009022487	What's the matter?
mdp.39015009022487	What's yo'name, young feller? ” whispered Sam. mdp.39015009022487 Where are you off to? ” he asked, dropping his bulging brief case beside a chair and wiping his flushed, perspiring face.
mdp.39015009022487	Where's Ree- o- dee January? ” he'd suddenly demand of Lem. mdp.39015009022487 Where's that Joe? ” he demanded by way of diverting her attention.
mdp.39015009022487	Where's that Junior anyhow?
mdp.39015009022487	Where's that Reverend Williams'address?
mdp.39015009022487	Where's the funeral? ”They've cut Bran's salary to the bone, ” announced Connie.
mdp.39015009022487	Where's the officer who made the arrests?
mdp.39015009022487	Where? ” demanded Joe eagerly. mdp.39015009022487 Which way did he go?"
mdp.39015009022487	Who owns that one? ”My brother- in- law used to run it, ” said Essie as she stepped into the car and they drifted away.
mdp.39015009022487	Who that?
mdp.39015009022487	Who told you to write'em? ” he asked slowly, his voice an ominous rumble. mdp.39015009022487 Who's done what, baby? ” he yawned.
mdp.39015009022487	Who's next, gentlemen? ” smiled Paul. mdp.39015009022487 Who's she? ” he demanded.
mdp.39015009022487	Who, me? ” said Essie defensively. mdp.39015009022487 Why didn'cha go my fine?"
mdp.39015009022487	Why do n't you play a man's game? ”Because I'm playing a female minnow! ” grinned Paul, unruffled by the taunt.
mdp.39015009022487	Why do n't you say it? ” he demanded as sharply as he could. mdp.39015009022487 Why you — why you wan'go, bye?"
mdp.39015009022487	Wo n't I though? mdp.39015009022487 You ai n't likin''bout yestiddy... Georgie... that it?"
mdp.39015009022487	You and who else? ” he replied, assuming a mock polite- ness of tone. mdp.39015009022487 You ever think what we mought do ef we was to run our places in partners? ”"I ai n't bin thinkin'nothin'diff'rent! ” ejaculated Maggie.
mdp.39015009022487	You gentlemen know how I stuck to my post — at great loss to myself, I'd have you recall — when those bombing outrages were at their worst? mdp.39015009022487 You go past Connie's today? ” he asked as an afterthought.
mdp.39015009022487	You got enough?
mdp.39015009022487	You hear that?
mdp.39015009022487	You know one thing? mdp.39015009022487 You know what you're saying, Connie? ” demanded the mother feebly.
mdp.39015009022487	You know your family right down to the bricks and make no bones about it. ” “ Why should I? mdp.39015009022487 You lovesh me-hic!-do'you- hic!—Russh?"
mdp.39015009022487	You mean a po'ter?
mdp.39015009022487	You mean to say that you live in this house with nothing but men?
mdp.39015009022487	You see Sol yet, Mom?
mdp.39015009022487	You see them sitting on the porches, do n't you? mdp.39015009022487 You see, Connie?
mdp.39015009022487	You send any o'that money home, boy?
mdp.39015009022487	You still gon na stick to that business co’se? ” asked Joe. mdp.39015009022487 You'd think he'd stick around and go with us to see Dad, would n't you?
mdp.39015009022487	You're asking me? ” shrugged Essie. mdp.39015009022487 You're from back East, are n't you?"
mdp.39015009022487	You're out for a big time, are n't you, boys? ” Her brilliant teeth flashed at them, and Essie thought im- mediately of a purring cat. mdp.39015009022487 You're pretty cool about it all, are n't you?"
mdp.39015009022487	You's all right, ai n't you, schoolboy? ” approved Jeff. mdp.39015009022487 You's the barber, ai n't you? ” asked Jeff curtly.
mdp.39015009022487	'Bout how many's leavin'wid us? ”"Near'bout fifty, countin'chilluns.
mdp.39015009022487	'So what do I care if now it's colored they are?'
mdp.39015009022487	... Say, ai n't that the gal you was tellin'us'bout once?"
mdp.39015009022487	... What kind o'business you want try?
mdp.39015009022487	... What's Junior doing?
mdp.39015009022487	...""Oh, that? ” Bran laughed.
mdp.39015009022487	...""What kind o'proposition? ” Joe's face was still expression- less.
mdp.39015009022487	123"What're ya doin'in there? ” Essie stared.
mdp.39015009022487	15"So you wo n't listen to me, eh? ” quavered the old man.
mdp.39015009022487	239"What's the matter- do I look that bad? ” The young man suddenly smiled.
mdp.39015009022487	249"She plays the organ? ” Paul remembered the piano in the sitting room.
mdp.39015009022487	291 family, do we, Connie? ” said Essie ruefully.
mdp.39015009022487	59"What? ” Joe stripped off his apron.
mdp.39015009022487	87 fifth of the profits and — a chance to sell yours and Nick's liquor —""Who's Nick?
mdp.39015009022487	? ” Connie laughed and followed Mae out into the corridor.
mdp.39015009022487	AND WHERE shall a young man turn with his strident ambi- tion to garner a portion of the world's goods for his very own?
mdp.39015009022487	After all, a young man could pay attention to an older woman without having any bad motive ”"Et tu? ” exclaimed Connie archly.
mdp.39015009022487	Ah- won't you go for a stroll in the park with me?
mdp.39015009022487	Ai n't no harm in that, is they?"
mdp.39015009022487	Ai n't no use giving our money to somebody else, now is there?
mdp.39015009022487	Ai n't that so, neighbor?"
mdp.39015009022487	Ai n't yo'ma give you same's Essie?

mdp.39015009022487	And Maggie, who had let him have his way about mortgaging the property?
mdp.39015009022487	And after a while we could put them in a taxi and send them about their business-"But suppose they went to the police?"
mdp.39015009022487	And does the cold shoulder ice him?
mdp.39015009022487	And for what?
mdp.39015009022487	And how's your husband's store coming on?
mdp.39015009022487	And what am I doing?
mdp.39015009022487	And what do women do at club and lodge meetings?
mdp.39015009022487	And what have I done?
mdp.39015009022487	And what'd he do?
mdp.39015009022487	And you do n't want to go back home now?"
mdp.39015009022487	And, my dear, have you seen thus- and- so?
mdp.39015009022487	Any more for me to type? ”"Nope, not yet.
mdp.39015009022487	Any objections? ” Junior grinned sheepishly.
mdp.39015009022487	Anybody home? ” The voice was punctuated by a terrific pounding on the kitchen door.
mdp.39015009022487	Anything! ”"Sort of a ‘ man begs, woman sells'proposition, eh? ” Dan's lips were writhing in irony now.
mdp.39015009022487	Are n't you, Mae?"
mdp.39015009022487	Are you with me, children?
mdp.39015009022487	Barber? ”"No sir,"replied Paul thoughtfully.
mdp.39015009022487	Be your age, will you?
mdp.39015009022487	Big meat places there, you know. ”"What's yo'name?"
mdp.39015009022487	Bills?
mdp.39015009022487	Business must be picking up for you boys, eh? ” She scanned the room and chuckled mischievously.
mdp.39015009022487	But did I?
mdp.39015009022487	But does Mother care?
mdp.39015009022487	But what to wear?
mdp.39015009022487	But when?
mdp.39015009022487	But, after all, what is business?
mdp.39015009022487	But...""But what? ” coaxed Joe as Milburn looked out of the window.
mdp.39015009022487	By the way do you have any place I can keep it?"
mdp.39015009022487	By the way, how are you coming with that paper of yours?
mdp.39015009022487	Ca n't you see you ai n't gon na be makin'dough like this all the time?
mdp.39015009022487	Carrying out the-whose theory?
mdp.39015009022487	Changes every day, and carries a big roll of dough-""How do you like that? ” Connie was cynically triumphant.
mdp.39015009022487	Do Mother and Essie know yet?
mdp.39015009022487	Do n't I, Sister Dawson?
mdp.39015009022487	Do n't think I want something for myself, do you?
mdp.39015009022487	Do n't you want these kids finishing school to have a chance?"
mdp.39015009022487	Do n't you want to see your old man a bank director?
mdp.39015009022487	Do you follow me?"
mdp.39015009022487	Do you smoke in bed? ”"Not any more!"
mdp.39015009022487	Do you understand?
mdp.39015009022487	Do you want to end up like that?"
mdp.39015009022487	Especially since Barnes, the real estate guy, was bombed? ”"Say, that was pretty bad, was n't it? ” exclaimed Mick.
mdp.39015009022487	Especially since Barnes, the real estate guy, was bombed? ”"Say, that was pretty bad, was n't it? ” exclaimed Mick.
mdp.39015009022487	Everything, you hear? ” Another coughing spell left him weak and shaken, but he raged on:"What we need is more plagues!
mdp.39015009022487	Fickle young huntsman..."Put the dishes in that cupboard, will you?"
mdp.39015009022487	Georgie backed farther away, but the fury followed him as she barely whispered:"I love my dad — you hear me?
mdp.39015009022487	Get me? ” “ Yes, ” said Ronnie as he sank into a chair with a sigh,"but I'm afraid some females do n't submit willingly to the treat- ment."
mdp.39015009022487	Get wise to your- self! ”"What do you mean?"
mdp.39015009022487	Gives you plenty covers in the"SO YOU WANTS to go in business, eh?"
mdp.39015009022487	Going out with your boy friend? ”"Yeah, ” grinned Josie.
mdp.39015009022487	Gone?
mdp.39015009022487	Have n't I been keeping your books for you?
mdp.39015009022487	Have you forgotten the string of boy friends you've led around on pink ribbons?
mdp.39015009022487	Have you that which we would find before the Night... the dawnless Night... bids us, at last, to rest?
mdp.39015009022487	He used to work in the stockyards when I was there"“ You- stockyards? ”"Oh yes, ” affirmed Connie.
mdp.39015009022487	He was hardly out of sight when Lem and Connie, fol- lowed by Mazzie Dawson, hurried up from the opposite di- rection,"What's the matter, Mom?"
mdp.39015009022487	He's doing the same thing with Jeanette Allen-""You mean that girl who lost her husband last year? ” ex- claimed Christine.
mdp.39015009022487	Hear?
mdp.39015009022487	Hello, Ronnie — just home from school? ”"Yes, ” gasped the sallow- skinned one.
mdp.39015009022487	Him?
mdp.39015009022487	How about the room?"
mdp.39015009022487	How are you, Miss Maggie? ” He extended a hand to the latter, who bulked behind the girl.
mdp.39015009022487	How come he wo n't listen?
mdp.39015009022487	How come you ai n't got none o'yo'money left, boy?
mdp.39015009022487	How did you know? ” Paul squinted his admiration of her comeliness.
mdp.39015009022487	How in the world do you stand all that snow and cold? ”"Lord, honey! ” laughed Jane, unwrapping a blue scarf from her neck.
mdp.39015009022487	How long...?
mdp.39015009022487	How much did you lose? ” The old man quietly stated the sum.
mdp.39015009022487	How much? ”"Are n't you going to look at it?"
mdp.39015009022487	How much? ”"Are n't you going to look at it?"
mdp.39015009022487	How you gettin'on? ” Notwithstanding Joe's cordiality, Bran could n't suppress the feeling of wonder he always experienced whenever he saw Joe.
mdp.39015009022487	How ’ m I doin'? ” She stood and turned about so that Joe could better appraise her.
mdp.39015009022487	How ’ m I doin'? ” The Boulevard Terrace was a model housing project in the heart of the Black Belt.
mdp.39015009022487	How'bout it, Joe?"
mdp.39015009022487	How'd you all like to have some real stuff to drink?"
mdp.39015009022487	How'd you like that, huh?"
mdp.39015009022487	How'd you make out up the country?"
mdp.39015009022487	How's Sol and Connie doing at the Yards? ”.
mdp.39015009022487	I got it! ”"Did you ever see State Street as quiet as this? ” chuckled Jane as they turned into the almost deserted thoroughfare.
mdp.39015009022487	I got kind of bighearted and scattered bless- ings in sundry places immediately after the crash. ”"I'm terribly sorry""Are you going to listen?
mdp.39015009022487	I knowed it! ”"What's the matter, Joe? ” queried Christine.
mdp.39015009022487	I lost her. ”"Still bothers you, eh? ”"I'll get her yet! ”"Some things are n't meant for some individuals, son. ”"Humph!
mdp.39015009022487	I saw him the other day when I was around. ”"What's he ever done? ” countered Essie bitterly.
mdp.39015009022487	I suppose you can guess that, though?"
mdp.39015009022487	I suppose you want to make a belated attempt on this fair damsel's heart, eh? ”"I? ” queried Dan, striking an attitude.
mdp.39015009022487	I suppose you want to make a belated attempt on this fair damsel's heart, eh? ”"I? ” queried Dan, striking an attitude.
mdp.39015009022487	I wanted you hard, but not too hard- especially where your own people are concerned. ”"Who are my people? ” asked Dan somberly.
mdp.39015009022487	I'll dish the dough out to you! ”"Ah- so you're the big boss since they jugged the ole man, eh? ” laughed the boy.
mdp.39015009022487	Is n't Mae the limit, though?
mdp.39015009022487	Is that plain? ” Connie's drawl was impatient as she paused before her mother.
mdp.39015009022487	Is that your little brother, or is that your little brother?"
mdp.39015009022487	Is you crazy in the haid? ” she bayed.
mdp.39015009022487	It's about time for us to be getting to church, is n't it?"
mdp.39015009022487	Jes'carries me a gait all the time, plague take'em! ”"You — you tell- a me?"
mdp.39015009022487	Less painful, would n't you think?"
mdp.39015009022487	Look here- how you go'bout gittin'that comp’ny to run a train? ”"Well, it's this- a- way, ” explained Sam.
mdp.39015009022487	Lose?
mdp.39015009022487	Man, why do n't you pull out for home while you're ahead? ”"Now you know what I keep telling you about home! ” grinned Russ.
mdp.39015009022487	Many bullets he ducked'Over There,'this little fracas do n't mean a thing to him"Is it very bad out? ” asked Connie.
mdp.39015009022487	Me?
mdp.39015009022487	Me?
mdp.39015009022487	Me?
mdp.39015009022487	Mendel? ”"I do n't get it."
mdp.39015009022487	Mess, is n't it?
mdp.39015009022487	Mind if I bring them over here? ”"Mind?
mdp.39015009022487	Mind if I bring them over here? ”"Mind?
mdp.39015009022487	Momma's on a spending spree?"
mdp.39015009022487	My sister's having a birthday party-"You all wants me? ” Joe stepped forward out of the dark.
mdp.39015009022487	Nasty high yallers an'po'white trash! ”"Ai n't they a mess?
mdp.39015009022487	Now ai n't that fair?
mdp.39015009022487	Now ai n't that right?
mdp.39015009022487	Now ai n't that right?
mdp.39015009022487	Now ai n't that right?"
mdp.39015009022487	Now do you get what I mean about Junior? ” She rose.
mdp.39015009022487	Now is they?"
mdp.39015009022487	Now what you folks what's done bin up here fo'the Lawd knows when gon na do'bout it?
mdp.39015009022487	Now what's the answer? ”"We just have n't learned the value of a dollar, that's all, ” replied Bob.
mdp.39015009022487	Okay?"
mdp.39015009022487	Opens up tomorrow, do n't it?
mdp.39015009022487	Reckon he's over to Henny's, Christine? ”"Dere he! ” chirped Essie, pointing.
mdp.39015009022487	Reckon you'll stay awhile longer now, wo n't you? ”"No’m, A’nt Lizzie, ” said Paul decidedly.
mdp.39015009022487	Remember 1920?
mdp.39015009022487	Say — what do you know about what Georgie says?"
mdp.39015009022487	Say, did you have any inkling about Lem and Mae?
mdp.39015009022487	Say, whyn't you all take in roomers?
mdp.39015009022487	See if you can catch him before he goes home, will you? ”"Okay, Dad. ” Old Dan lit a cigar as Dan departed.
mdp.39015009022487	See the youngster calmly pouring his grog from that beauti- ful flask, and who thinks he's a Valentino?
mdp.39015009022487	See?
mdp.39015009022487	See?
mdp.39015009022487	See?
mdp.39015009022487	See?
mdp.39015009022487	See?
mdp.39015009022487	See?
mdp.39015009022487	See? ” But Christine already was mounting Henrietta's porch.
mdp.39015009022487	See? ”"What you mean, nigger? ” Old Lawson flinched, and his gray eyes flashed as the red flooded his freckled neck.
mdp.39015009022487	See? ”"What you mean, nigger? ” Old Lawson flinched, and his gray eyes flashed as the red flooded his freckled neck.
mdp.39015009022487	See?"
mdp.39015009022487	She does n't bother? ”"I do n't mess with boys! ” Essie interrupted her mother.
mdp.39015009022487	Sho'is glad you made up yo'mind to come! ”"You seed that boy o'mine?
mdp.39015009022487	Shucks — what diff'ence it make anyways?
mdp.39015009022487	So far you're right, Johnson —""But what about the other side?"
mdp.39015009022487	So what did they do?
mdp.39015009022487	Sol, do ole man Tibbetts still want that land?"
mdp.39015009022487	T'row — t'row on who?"
mdp.39015009022487	That curiously coarse crimpiness of hair and the cheekbones she and Dad have?
mdp.39015009022487	That reminds me — I'm starved! ” “ How'd you like to help me get dinner downstairs?"
mdp.39015009022487	That's the watermelon king's youngest son —""Watermelon king?"
mdp.39015009022487	That's what Essie told me. ”"So, you've been talking about me? ” teased Paul to Essie.
mdp.39015009022487	The gals all quit you? ”"Naw, Miss Maggie, ” answered the boy, assuming a mourn- ful pose.
mdp.39015009022487	The man what kin put you on is from my home town an'all I got do is say the word an'you got the job. ”"Railroad, eh? ” said Joe disappointedly.
mdp.39015009022487	Then gruffly, as her lower lip dropped:"Aw, fo’git it! ”"Did you go to the doctor about that dizzy spell?"
mdp.39015009022487	There's plenty money- and I know what I'm talking about. ”"Oh yeah? ” queried Essie sarcastically.
mdp.39015009022487	These roomers — are there any women? ”"No women for me.
mdp.39015009022487	They do n't mix wid us over here- don't even want set in same pew wid you"“ Like some folks down home, eh? ” growled Joe.
mdp.39015009022487	They gits that from'at feller writin'in the Champ'on. ”"Canaan, eh?
mdp.39015009022487	They sent us a crazy telegram from Detroit about Santa Claus and an elopement""Is n't it something, though? ” exclaimed Connie.
mdp.39015009022487	This place's gittin'jes'like Sodom —""Thought it was jes'like Canaan when we fust come up here, Sam? ” reminded Joe.
mdp.39015009022487	Tired of being married? ” asked Essie.
mdp.39015009022487	Understand? ” He shook the wilted man.
mdp.39015009022487	We have to live, do n't we?
mdp.39015009022487	Well, I'll be doggone! ”"Now what?"
mdp.39015009022487	What about it? ” She was on the defense.
mdp.39015009022487	What about that fight last year?
mdp.39015009022487	What did I tell you? ” And he received another pluck.
mdp.39015009022487	What do you say to next Sunday afternoon? ”"It's a go, ” came her ready agreement.
mdp.39015009022487	What do you say, gentlemen? ”"I'm wid you!"
mdp.39015009022487	What do you think I am? ” He scowled about the room and came up in front of her again.
mdp.39015009022487	What do you think of that? ”"I think he's got something there! ” laughed Connie, pick- ing a glass from the tray Bran offered.
mdp.39015009022487	What do you think, Doctor? ”.
mdp.39015009022487	What had the four years profited him?
mdp.39015009022487	What is it this time- twins?"
mdp.39015009022487	What kind of a background is that for kids?
mdp.39015009022487	What remains for us who have not now that strength which com passed us and fended the buffets of daily strife?
mdp.39015009022487	What say?"
mdp.39015009022487	What say?"
mdp.39015009022487	What time is it?
mdp.39015009022487	What was he paying his Greek clerks?
mdp.39015009022487	What you think I am?
mdp.39015009022487	What'bout these here bad houses what we folks got to live in?
mdp.39015009022487	What'd he do now- same thing?"
mdp.39015009022487	What's matter- Christine cryin'the blues agin? ” “ Yeah. ” Joe frowned into his coffee.
mdp.39015009022487	What's the mat- ter?
mdp.39015009022487	What's the matter wid you menfolks?
mdp.39015009022487	What's the matter wid you?
mdp.39015009022487	What's the matter, Mother? ” She patted Christine's shoulder.
mdp.39015009022487	What's the number? ”"Damned if it ai n't! ” puzzled Paul.
mdp.39015009022487	When are you at home, young lady? ”.
mdp.39015009022487	When are you coming home?
mdp.39015009022487	When is he going to finish that work? ” 166 168 O Canaan!
mdp.39015009022487	Where do you think you'll head when you leave?"
mdp.39015009022487	Where is the one in whom we may anchor our soul when the tides of spring surge within us, and we would ride the winds of March to far places?
mdp.39015009022487	Where shall we find sustenance, we who twined our lesser stems about its rugged trunk and drew therefrom our life's blood?
mdp.39015009022487	Where you bound? ”"Same place,"answered Maggie, very pleased now that she was among"home folks."
mdp.39015009022487	Where you got to go?"
mdp.39015009022487	Where ’ ve you been?"
mdp.39015009022487	Where'd you get it — the movies? ” His voice was terse and hard.
mdp.39015009022487	Where'd you git all them purty gals from? ”"Sh!
mdp.39015009022487	Where's my babies? ”"Here they is, ” called Joe from the dining room.
mdp.39015009022487	Where's she at? ”"Gone to bed- plumb give out, ” said Josie.
mdp.39015009022487	Who do you think you are?
mdp.39015009022487	Who — who got eet?"
mdp.39015009022487	Who's this here? ” Essie presented Paul, who received Maggie's instant ap- proval.
mdp.39015009022487	Why do n't you say amen? ”"Amen!
mdp.39015009022487	Why the hell should he pay me as much as he pays his own peo- ple?
mdp.39015009022487	Why'n hell do n't they go on and have a red- light district, like in the old days? ” The nurse shrugged.
mdp.39015009022487	Whyn't you give Sam Cum- mins a chance?
mdp.39015009022487	Whyn't you talk some sense in'er head, Joe? ”"Ai n't no use, Sam.
mdp.39015009022487	Wo n't you join me?"
mdp.39015009022487	You all smoke cigars? ” He offered a handful to them.
mdp.39015009022487	You and your father live here all alone?"
mdp.39015009022487	You be by today, daughter? ”"Tell them I'll be past sometime during the week, ” lied Essie.
mdp.39015009022487	You find a job yet? ”"No,"said Essie glumly.
mdp.39015009022487	You hear me, Joe Benson? ” The subdued butler fingered his black bow nervously.
mdp.39015009022487	You hears me?
mdp.39015009022487	You know Bran- Connie Benson's husband? ” Milburn grunted his acknowledgment.
mdp.39015009022487	You know about him — first trading post and all that?"
mdp.39015009022487	You know any so- called Christians who would do the same thing?"
mdp.39015009022487	You means you goin'over there'mongst them Pollocks an'Hunkies?
mdp.39015009022487	You mind helping me with it?"
mdp.39015009022487	You notice how many of'em's moving out to the suburbs?
mdp.39015009022487	You staying this time?"
mdp.39015009022487	You sure do n't make a pretty picture sitting there like that. ”"But what will all our friends say?"
mdp.39015009022487	You take it too seriously. ”"How can I take it any other way, coming from where I came? ” said Connie soberly, and with a far gaze in her eyes.
mdp.39015009022487	You want me to solve it for you?"
mdp.39015009022487	You're from Georgia, are n't you? ”"Yes'm, that's right, ” grinned Jeff.
mdp.39015009022487	and Essie?
mdp.39015009022487	gone have trouble, eh? ” Essie laughed off the hint, but Paul, watching her closely, thought her eyes sparkled brighter.
mdp.39015009022487	much?
mdp.39015009022487	to do- borrow money on the house?
mdp.39015009022487	“ Ai n't you goin'to church this mo’nin', honey? ” he asked Christine, who continued to gaze fixedly at her plate.
mdp.39015009022487	“ And do I look like I've been through the mill? ”"I ca n't say you do."
mdp.39015009022487	“ And now, Miss Benson, may I take the liberty to inquire: so what?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ And what good'll that do you?
mdp.39015009022487	“ And what's the string attached to it? ”"What do you think? ” he asked.
mdp.39015009022487	“ And what's the string attached to it? ”"What do you think? ” he asked.
mdp.39015009022487	“ And you can drop the movie pose too ”"Wo n't you have a seat? ” interrupted Georgie.
mdp.39015009022487	“ Any- body been here yet?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ Business picked up this week, did n't it, Essie? ” Joe shifted as Paul fell into his apathy again.
mdp.39015009022487	“ But I'm telling you if something is n't done it'll be the next plague-"How do you want your eggs?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ But suppose they get rough? ”"You used to play a mighty strong game of basketball and tennis, ” replied Clo.
mdp.39015009022487	“ But what's a guy's best gal going to do but nurse him when he's sick, sweetheart? ” He kissed her swiftly on her cheek.
mdp.39015009022487	“ Cat, you're really takin'it on the lam, eh?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ Come on, let a pal in on the secret, will you?
mdp.39015009022487	“ Did he recognize us? ”"I'll say he did!
mdp.39015009022487	“ Did you collect it all? ”"All but twenty- seven fifty, ” replied Russ.

mdp.39015009022487	“ Folks sho'nuf leavin'from down here, ai n't they?

mdp.39015009022487	“ How do you like the backless velvet and the diamonds?
mdp.39015009022487	“ How much? ” demanded Paul impatiently.
mdp.39015009022487	“ How's Essie and Junior getting along in school?
mdp.39015009022487	“ How's Lem doin'out there? ”"He's all right, ” said Sol.
mdp.39015009022487	“ How's MY BABIES TODAY?
mdp.39015009022487	“ How's you?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ How's your aunt Henny? ” asked Christine when he had gained the porch.
mdp.39015009022487	“ I sup- pose the term has the same meaning out here, eh? ”"You guessed it, mister! ” She grinned.
mdp.39015009022487	“ I suppose there's no use in my trying to change your mind about social work? ” she asked as they alighted at the station.
mdp.39015009022487	“ I tried to signal you to ease up on the liquor, ” she said, “ but you paid me no mind. ”"What was I to do? ” moaned Essie.
mdp.39015009022487	“ I'll see you when I make my first ten thousand. ”"What, piker- no million? ” exclaimed Booker sarcasti- cally.
mdp.39015009022487	“ Is n't he an interesting man?
mdp.39015009022487	“ Oh, it's you, eh? ” Some of the gruffness left her voice.
mdp.39015009022487	“ Remember what you told me a while ago? ”"Okay. ” He accepted the jibe.
mdp.39015009022487	“ Say, Mick, you got any o'them tickets for the game Saturday?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ So they's like that, is they?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ So you thought you'd stand guard to protect Little Red Ridinghood from the big, bad wolf, eh? ” He laughed loudly and reared back in his chair.
mdp.39015009022487	“ So you're having the same trouble too?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ Very striking, is n't she? ” said Weeks brazenly.
mdp.39015009022487	“ Well, I wish I knew where to find it! ” “ Where do you think I got these? ” Clo indicated her jewelry and clothing.
mdp.39015009022487	“ Well?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ What are you going to do? ” asked Paul.
mdp.39015009022487	“ What better use could I put my money to than to help you get started?
mdp.39015009022487	“ What did you do?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ What do you get for being soft?
mdp.39015009022487	“ What do you know, Patton?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ What do you think about Lem and Mae?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ What do you want me to do?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ What have you been drinking? ” demanded Connie.
mdp.39015009022487	“ What you blushing about, boy? ” he roared.
mdp.39015009022487	“ What you meddlin'wid these people fo ’?
mdp.39015009022487	“ What you tryin'do, schoolboy- kill me?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ What'd he mean by'Canaan'? ”"That's what they's callin'Chicago, man! ” exclaimed Sam as they walked back along the solitary street.
mdp.39015009022487	“ What's all the hurry for any- way?
mdp.39015009022487	“ What's mat- ter- payday today? ” Patton made him a swift sign and eyed A’nt Lizzie fur- tively.
mdp.39015009022487	“ What's on your mind — that Thomas guy? ”"Yeah, ” said Joe.
mdp.39015009022487	“ What's the big noise, sister? ”"Aw, I just want her to loan me a deuce until next week, Dad, ” said Junior blandly.
mdp.39015009022487	“ What's the matter wid you all? ” he growled as they halted.
mdp.39015009022487	“ What's the matter, boy friend? ” inquired a familiar, cheery voice at his elbow.
mdp.39015009022487	“ What's the matter- can't you take it?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ What's them Lawsons gwine say? ” Joe's face hardened.
mdp.39015009022487	“ What?
mdp.39015009022487	“ What?
mdp.39015009022487	“ When do I start? ” 156 O Canaan!
mdp.39015009022487	“ When do we begin? ” asked Essie briefly.
mdp.39015009022487	“ Where are they now?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ Where was that?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ Where'll I meet you — at the apart- ment? ”"Yeah- around eleven,"answered Bob and sauntered out.
mdp.39015009022487	“ Who all's this? ” demanded Jeff Jackson, nodding a matted head at Paul.
mdp.39015009022487	“ Who did the job, Dad? ”"Says here,"answered Joe, bending closer to the paper,"some gal by the name o'Gladys — Gladys Colton.
mdp.39015009022487	“ Why, jes'yestiddy I loan'i m some money to set up a poolroom""What?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ Will that be enough? ” He did not wait for her answer.
mdp.39015009022487	“ Would they want to explain? ” countered Clo.
mdp.39015009022487	“ You an'her done quit comin'to church, ai n't you?
mdp.39015009022487	“ You know I love you, do n't you? ”"No, you do n't love me, ” said Connie, still calm though her flesh smarted from his strong grip.
mdp.39015009022487	“ You mean to tell me you pay seventy- five cents to have your hair done?"
mdp.39015009022487	“ You remember Doctor Branshaw, do n't you, Dad? ”"Sho'-sho'! ” Joe extended a friendly hand.
mdp.39015009022487	“ You want to see a sight? ” asked Essie when Paul came home that evening.
mdp.39015009022487	“ You want try it?
nyp.33433076059314	A Negro woman?
nyp.33433076059314	A contest on Orlean's place? nyp.33433076059314 A sense of humor?"
nyp.33433076059314	A son?
nyp.33433076059314	A sort of cabaret?
nyp.33433076059314	A suit — want to obtain a judgment?
nyp.33433076059314	A — ah — how are you?
nyp.33433076059314	Ah — ha — who — who — who is th- is?
nyp.33433076059314	Ai n't I done outlined it right?
nyp.33433076059314	And I venture to say that you have just about raised yourself?
nyp.33433076059314	And did you wonder at my calling your name that night?
nyp.33433076059314	And for that, for all that I have sacrificed, what am I given? nyp.33433076059314 And how about the women?
nyp.33433076059314	And how are the crops?
nyp.33433076059314	And how did you come to meet him, daughter?
nyp.33433076059314	And how is everybody?
nyp.33433076059314	And how is everything about the home, my son?
nyp.33433076059314	And how long have you been here?
nyp.33433076059314	And how's hubby?
nyp.33433076059314	And is it not a fact that Mrs. Pruitt as well as your daughter, explained it all at the time with satisfaction to you?
nyp.33433076059314	And last summer you recall how it rained?
nyp.33433076059314	And my plans are that you go over there, and see her?
nyp.33433076059314	And she paid for it out of her own money?
nyp.33433076059314	And since you have asked me, may I explain?
nyp.33433076059314	And the name?
nyp.33433076059314	And the rest of the family?
nyp.33433076059314	And then, forsooth, it must have been your daughter's husband who was instrumental in saving the place for her?
nyp.33433076059314	And what did I do to him?
nyp.33433076059314	And what do you mean? nyp.33433076059314 And what do you think of him, my dear?"
nyp.33433076059314	And what followed?
nyp.33433076059314	And when did you receive my letter? nyp.33433076059314 And when you arrived you found her dead near the door, while your father lay murdered in the bed?"
nyp.33433076059314	And where is my friend, Baptiste?
nyp.33433076059314	And you are not worth ten thousand?
nyp.33433076059314	And you can not possibly wait until next week?
nyp.33433076059314	And you could not pay it?
nyp.33433076059314	And you have me here and are caring for me?
nyp.33433076059314	And you?
nyp.33433076059314	And you?
nyp.33433076059314	And yours?
nyp.33433076059314	And — ca n't you understand it, either?
nyp.33433076059314	And — you — you — have just come?
nyp.33433076059314	And, why, mama, do the preachers have no time for little boys? nyp.33433076059314 AndhowisOrlean?"
nyp.33433076059314	Another beer, Cap'n?
nyp.33433076059314	Any coal?
nyp.33433076059314	Any evidence of a struggle?
nyp.33433076059314	Anything else?
nyp.33433076059314	Are n't you coming down to supper, Orlean?
nyp.33433076059314	But I do n't see the joke?
nyp.33433076059314	But I have guessed correctly, have n't I?
nyp.33433076059314	But how came you with mohey? nyp.33433076059314 But how could you have missed the train so often?"
nyp.33433076059314	But is that the fault of protestantism?
nyp.33433076059314	But it was — er, rather — a little irregular, was it not? nyp.33433076059314 But we do n't understand?"
nyp.33433076059314	But what — what became of their mother?
nyp.33433076059314	But why did n't you explain that Bill could stay home?
nyp.33433076059314	But you are going away, dear, and will surely need money?
nyp.33433076059314	But you did n't come from there today — this afternoon? nyp.33433076059314 But you have n't answered my question?"
nyp.33433076059314	But you're engaged?
nyp.33433076059314	But, mama, why?
nyp.33433076059314	By the way, Jean, why do n't you marry my sister?
nyp.33433076059314	Ca n't you loan the old man the money?
nyp.33433076059314	Call this same number in about ten minutes, understand? nyp.33433076059314 Can your father not understand, Orlean,"he com- plained, with a deep frown,"that I can not accept his char- ity?
nyp.33433076059314	Could n't dissuade him, eh?
nyp.33433076059314	Did he give reasons?
nyp.33433076059314	Did he say I could get up soon?
nyp.33433076059314	Did he?
nyp.33433076059314	Did it last until after you had left your bed?
nyp.33433076059314	Did n't I say hush? nyp.33433076059314 Did you crawl through all that storm?"
nyp.33433076059314	Did you have any conversation with Baptiste after the trial in which he sued your father- in- law?
nyp.33433076059314	Did you hear how he abused your father?
nyp.33433076059314	Did you hear me, Aggie?
nyp.33433076059314	Did you hear that, daughter?
nyp.33433076059314	Did you hear the news?
nyp.33433076059314	Do I look all right, mama?
nyp.33433076059314	Do n't they?
nyp.33433076059314	Do n't you know that I have longed to see you, and that it has not been just right that I could not?
nyp.33433076059314	Do you believe these statements?
nyp.33433076059314	Do you happen to be acquainted with a family here by the name of McCarthy?
nyp.33433076059314	Do you love me, Orlean?
nyp.33433076059314	Do you recall it?
nyp.33433076059314	Do you recall, Mrs. Glavis, whether she screamed long, or whether it was brief?
nyp.33433076059314	Do you recognize my voice?
nyp.33433076059314	Do you think so?
nyp.33433076059314	Done for what?
nyp.33433076059314	From your father, you mean?
nyp.33433076059314	Granting that he secured a judgment?
nyp.33433076059314	Has a doctor been here?
nyp.33433076059314	Has she told you what I have been doing to her?
nyp.33433076059314	Has some one come between you?
nyp.33433076059314	Have I spoken rightly?
nyp.33433076059314	Have truly forgotten that you are an Ethiopian, and must share what is Ethiopia's?
nyp.33433076059314	Have you ever considered the outcome in case he should get a judgment against you? nyp.33433076059314 Have you heard the the rest of it?"
nyp.33433076059314	Have you rented your place yet?
nyp.33433076059314	Have you tried elsewhere, father?
nyp.33433076059314	Havel, now, really?
nyp.33433076059314	He farms with his parents?
nyp.33433076059314	He was?
nyp.33433076059314	Her? nyp.33433076059314 His grandmother?
nyp.33433076059314	How are you, anyhow?
nyp.33433076059314	How could I forget it?
nyp.33433076059314	How did he know my name and come to say what he did?
nyp.33433076059314	How did they come to extend the note, father?'' nyp.33433076059314 How did you come to discover it, lady?"
nyp.33433076059314	How did you come to get kicked, Jean?
nyp.33433076059314	How do you feel? nyp.33433076059314 How do you like it in our country?"
nyp.33433076059314	How do you like it?
nyp.33433076059314	How is everything back home?
nyp.33433076059314	How is she?
nyp.33433076059314	How is that — did you say that you drank?
nyp.33433076059314	How long after you heard her scream was it before you came out of the room — your room?
nyp.33433076059314	How many of them?
nyp.33433076059314	How shall we explain in regards to Bill? nyp.33433076059314 How so?"
nyp.33433076059314	How — what kind of animal is it?
nyp.33433076059314	How's Doc?
nyp.33433076059314	How's that?
nyp.33433076059314	How's your neighbors across the road? nyp.33433076059314 Hurt?"
nyp.33433076059314	I ask what you are doing at my house?
nyp.33433076059314	I can not understand?
nyp.33433076059314	I do n't quite understand?
nyp.33433076059314	I think you have met him, have you not?
nyp.33433076059314	I wonder what he's been saying to Orlean?
nyp.33433076059314	If it is quite fair, may I ask where or how your father came by such a name?
nyp.33433076059314	In New York?
nyp.33433076059314	In what position, Orlean?
nyp.33433076059314	Is Miss Irene at home?
nyp.33433076059314	Is it so, Jean? nyp.33433076059314 Is it you?"
nyp.33433076059314	Is it — it — a woman?
nyp.33433076059314	Is n't it beautiful, Agnes? nyp.33433076059314 Is n't it warm tonight?"
nyp.33433076059314	Is that all you saw?
nyp.33433076059314	Is that so?
nyp.33433076059314	Is this a fact?
nyp.33433076059314	Is this the Greys home?
nyp.33433076059314	Is this you?
nyp.33433076059314	It is not so?
nyp.33433076059314	It was not you?
nyp.33433076059314	Jean?
nyp.33433076059314	M- m. Was that the first time you had seen him?
nyp.33433076059314	M- m. You say this was your daughter's place en- tirely?
nyp.33433076059314	M- m."How much do you plan seeding this season?
nyp.33433076059314	M- m."How old is he — a young man?
nyp.33433076059314	M- m?
nyp.33433076059314	May I take your hat?
nyp.33433076059314	McCarthy?
nyp.33433076059314	Me?
nyp.33433076059314	Me?
nyp.33433076059314	Me?
nyp.33433076059314	Meaning that since she had gone and taken the land, you were morally bound to look into and consider the mat- ter favorably?
nyp.33433076059314	Mother?
nyp.33433076059314	My folks?
nyp.33433076059314	N. J. McCarthy, N. J. McCarthy? nyp.33433076059314 Now I wish you would explain how you could be at fault for this contest upon your place, and why your hus- band accuses you of such?"
nyp.33433076059314	Now there must be something?
nyp.33433076059314	Now where is your sister- in- law?
nyp.33433076059314	Now, look here, Reverend McCarthy,he said and his tone revealed his feelings,"what kind of a'stunt'are you pulling off with my wife?"
nyp.33433076059314	Now, young man,his mother said to him the following morning,"you will get into clean cothes and stay clean, do you understand?"
nyp.33433076059314	Of what?
nyp.33433076059314	Oh, baching? nyp.33433076059314 Oh, is that so?"
nyp.33433076059314	Oh, is that so?
nyp.33433076059314	Our race?
nyp.33433076059314	Out here, you mean?
nyp.33433076059314	Out where?
nyp.33433076059314	Papa,she said in her usual, but sleepy- like voice,"Is that you?"
nyp.33433076059314	Play you a game of Casino?
nyp.33433076059314	Say, Brookings,he opened,"what kind of deal is the old Scotchman up against out there?
nyp.33433076059314	See who?
nyp.33433076059314	Shall I hire a lawyer, Jean? nyp.33433076059314 So I do n't guess I have it?"
nyp.33433076059314	So it came that you sacrificed the real love to be loyal to the race we belong to?
nyp.33433076059314	So that is how you came here?
nyp.33433076059314	So you serve drinks here, then?
nyp.33433076059314	So?
nyp.33433076059314	So?
nyp.33433076059314	So?
nyp.33433076059314	So?
nyp.33433076059314	That would please me if you would condescend?
nyp.33433076059314	The Watson place? nyp.33433076059314 The doctor, eh?"
nyp.33433076059314	The joke?
nyp.33433076059314	The wind?
nyp.33433076059314	Then how? nyp.33433076059314 Then we can contest it?"
nyp.33433076059314	Then what about their half brother in East St. Louis, eh? nyp.33433076059314 Then why do n't you come on out here?"
nyp.33433076059314	Then why not you and I get together on this proposition before the trial is called?
nyp.33433076059314	Then, how can you expect their followers to be?
nyp.33433076059314	Thenwfcaf?
nyp.33433076059314	Thinking? nyp.33433076059314 This is — er — rather unusual, do n't you think?"
nyp.33433076059314	Thought she was engaged to be married when I was here last year?
nyp.33433076059314	Until you had left the room you were in?
nyp.33433076059314	Was Baptiste aware that such a knife was in the room?
nyp.33433076059314	Was it providence, or was it God that brought you that night and saved me from the slow death that was coming over me, Agnes?
nyp.33433076059314	Was it/ who brought all this?
nyp.33433076059314	We have just be- come acquainted, but papa has told me of her, and the family, and I'm sure we will be the best of friends, wo n't we?
nyp.33433076059314	Well, Jean,she said now more soberly,"just what shall I do?"
nyp.33433076059314	Well, are they as a whole?
nyp.33433076059314	Well, dear? nyp.33433076059314 Well, how's Chicago?"
nyp.33433076059314	Well, how's everything over home?
nyp.33433076059314	Well, now what do you think of that,he kept repeat- ing to himself, as he went for the ice cream,"what do you think of that?"
nyp.33433076059314	Well, now, coming to think of it, it would, would n't it?
nyp.33433076059314	Well, now, to be frank, Duval,said Crook,"What do you think of it anyhow?"
nyp.33433076059314	Well?
nyp.33433076059314	Well?
nyp.33433076059314	Well?
nyp.33433076059314	Well?
nyp.33433076059314	Were those your folks I seen driving into town a while ago?
nyp.33433076059314	Wh — at a — re yo — u do- i- ng a — t m- y h- o- u- s- e?
nyp.33433076059314	What are you talking about?
nyp.33433076059314	What did he say to it?
nyp.33433076059314	What did he seem to think of it?
nyp.33433076059314	What did you do with your little wife?
nyp.33433076059314	What did you tell her?
nyp.33433076059314	What do you mean?
nyp.33433076059314	What do you think of it?
nyp.33433076059314	What do you think of protestantism?
nyp.33433076059314	What has been the matter with my little girl?
nyp.33433076059314	What have you been doing to my child?
nyp.33433076059314	What is it, dear?
nyp.33433076059314	What is it, dear?
nyp.33433076059314	What is singular?
nyp.33433076059314	What is the matter, Glavis?
nyp.33433076059314	What is the matter?
nyp.33433076059314	What is there to understand about this wilderness?
nyp.33433076059314	What is this place?
nyp.33433076059314	What is this?
nyp.33433076059314	What is this?
nyp.33433076059314	What kind of weeds are those?
nyp.33433076059314	What was the conversation?
nyp.33433076059314	What was the matter?
nyp.33433076059314	What ways, please?
nyp.33433076059314	What — what is the matter with him, Glavis? nyp.33433076059314 What — why — what's the matter?"
nyp.33433076059314	What'll you do with your horses?
nyp.33433076059314	What's he calling to see Orlean for?
nyp.33433076059314	What's her name — this Negress? nyp.33433076059314 What's the matter with lots of these nigga'men'round Chicago?
nyp.33433076059314	What's the matter, Mother Mary?
nyp.33433076059314	What's the matter?
nyp.33433076059314	What, papa?
nyp.33433076059314	What?
nyp.33433076059314	When did you discover this, madam?
nyp.33433076059314	When did you leave home?
nyp.33433076059314	When do they look for the Reverend in?
nyp.33433076059314	When, to your knowledge, was Baptiste last in the house?
nyp.33433076059314	When?
nyp.33433076059314	Where am I?
nyp.33433076059314	Where are you?
nyp.33433076059314	Where do you live?
nyp.33433076059314	Where is Orlean?
nyp.33433076059314	Where is he?
nyp.33433076059314	Where is my husband?
nyp.33433076059314	Where is the family and how many are there of you?
nyp.33433076059314	Where is your father today?
nyp.33433076059314	Where were they murdered?
nyp.33433076059314	Where would you like to go?
nyp.33433076059314	Where's the governor?
nyp.33433076059314	Which way do you live from town?
nyp.33433076059314	Who are you?
nyp.33433076059314	Who are you?
nyp.33433076059314	Who else?
nyp.33433076059314	Who has been murdered, and why am I accused?
nyp.33433076059314	Who holds the place, did you say?
nyp.33433076059314	Who is it out there?
nyp.33433076059314	Who? nyp.33433076059314 Why are you laughing?"
nyp.33433076059314	Why does he never ride in the daytime?
nyp.33433076059314	Why is it so?
nyp.33433076059314	Why must this be so?
nyp.33433076059314	Why not just go to one?
nyp.33433076059314	Why should I have done so when I did n't feel to?
nyp.33433076059314	Why should it please you?
nyp.33433076059314	Why should n't I? nyp.33433076059314 Why so?
nyp.33433076059314	Why so?
nyp.33433076059314	Why will he partake of the fuel he brought to keep from freezing, then?
nyp.33433076059314	Why would I want to do that? nyp.33433076059314 Why would you want to do that?"
nyp.33433076059314	Why would you want to see him?
nyp.33433076059314	Why — Jean — the man is — drunk, is he not?
nyp.33433076059314	Why — what's the matter?
nyp.33433076059314	Why — you have met my daughter?
nyp.33433076059314	Why, Or- lean, what has come over you?
nyp.33433076059314	Why, my child, this — this is rather sudden, is it not? nyp.33433076059314 Why,"he suddenly exclaimed, his eyes widening,"what is the matter?"
nyp.33433076059314	Why?
nyp.33433076059314	Will they not leave one?
nyp.33433076059314	Will you kindly state to the court just what you overheard and know regarding this affair?
nyp.33433076059314	With what were they murdered?
nyp.33433076059314	Wo n't you tell it to me?
nyp.33433076059314	Wo n't you tell me what the matter is, mother?
nyp.33433076059314	Wo n't — ah — wo n't you be seated?
nyp.33433076059314	Wonder why he does n't marry?
nyp.33433076059314	Would n't that be all right?
nyp.33433076059314	Would n't you like to go to town, papa?
nyp.33433076059314	Would you care for it?
nyp.33433076059314	Would you like to walk down by the river?
nyp.33433076059314	Yes, what do you think of that?
nyp.33433076059314	Yes?
nyp.33433076059314	Yes?
nyp.33433076059314	Yes?
nyp.33433076059314	Yes?'
nyp.33433076059314	Yesterday?
nyp.33433076059314	You admit to this, then, my dear Reverend?
nyp.33433076059314	You are going back home with me tomorrow, dear?
nyp.33433076059314	You are honestly happy, dear?
nyp.33433076059314	You did n't?
nyp.33433076059314	You discovered this tragedy, madam?
nyp.33433076059314	You do n't live here?
nyp.33433076059314	You have money?
nyp.33433076059314	You have not traveled far?
nyp.33433076059314	You have?
nyp.33433076059314	You have?
nyp.33433076059314	You infer that I have forgotten my troubles?
nyp.33433076059314	You mean,she said, straightening curiously,"that you loved an Indian up there?
nyp.33433076059314	You say you saw him going north of town?
nyp.33433076059314	You say, madame, that after you heard your sister scream you rushed from your room and to where she was?'' nyp.33433076059314 You think so?"
nyp.33433076059314	You think so?
nyp.33433076059314	You think you heard a door slam? nyp.33433076059314 You want to do what?"
nyp.33433076059314	You will awaken me early tomorrow — say, six o'clock?
nyp.33433076059314	You will go back with me, and be mine, all mine and love me forever?
nyp.33433076059314	You will not go back today — rather tonight?
nyp.33433076059314	You? nyp.33433076059314 Your mother is dead?"
nyp.33433076059314	Your wife, perhaps?
nyp.33433076059314	'What's the rip?
nyp.33433076059314	'Who're those girls liv- ing near the church?'
nyp.33433076059314	..."Has n't she wanted to see me?
nyp.33433076059314	130 THE HOMESTEADER"I agree again; but it's outrageous that he should say what he did about Jean Baptiste, now is n't it?"
nyp.33433076059314	15o THE HOMESTEADER"I have never lied to you, have I?"
nyp.33433076059314	178 THE HOMESTEADER"Now where did you meet Mr. Baptiste, my dear?"
nyp.33433076059314	206 THE HOMESTEADER"Then you will?"
nyp.33433076059314	379"What is the matter, Jean?"
nyp.33433076059314	380 THE HOMESTEADER"Do n't what?"
nyp.33433076059314	48 THE HOMESTEADER"Whiskey?"
nyp.33433076059314	After what Orlean said?
nyp.33433076059314	Am I speaking correctly?"
nyp.33433076059314	And how are you today?"
nyp.33433076059314	And how do you happen to be down here in the spring?"
nyp.33433076059314	And now that she was away, to his mind first came the question, why was she away?
nyp.33433076059314	And say, Brother McCarthy, what is this I read in the paper about your son- in- law com- ing in here and suing you for breaking up Orlean and he?"
nyp.33433076059314	And what did you see when you came out?"
nyp.33433076059314	And what do you think she had the nerve to say to me?
nyp.33433076059314	And what has he done it for?'
nyp.33433076059314	And yet, why was his wife in Chicago without even a letter from her to him; or one from him to her?
nyp.33433076059314	Another fence: who would furnish that two hundred and fifty dollars and secure him for the remainder?
nyp.33433076059314	Are the winters here as a rule as cold as this one has been?"
nyp.33433076059314	Are you in love with this man?"
nyp.33433076059314	At where I board?"
nyp.33433076059314	Baptiste?"
nyp.33433076059314	Baptiste?"
nyp.33433076059314	Baptiste?"
nyp.33433076059314	Besides, how did you know it?
nyp.33433076059314	Besides, what would he do with the books when he had them?
nyp.33433076059314	Besides,'I went on,'Why?'
nyp.33433076059314	Bill, however, not the least perturbed over his apparent breach of impropriety, became reseated, and resumed:"Well?"
nyp.33433076059314	Blanche's mother?"
nyp.33433076059314	But Jean, do you want me to?"
nyp.33433076059314	But did that stop her mouth?
nyp.33433076059314	But here we are, compelled to be apart, and by whom?"
nyp.33433076059314	But if he was awake, what was it he saw?
nyp.33433076059314	But is it not a fact that Mrs. Pruitt, with whom you are well acquainted, accompanied your daughter on this trip?"
nyp.33433076059314	But it seems rather odd, does n't it?
nyp.33433076059314	But maybe I am entitled to hear it?"
nyp.33433076059314	But the fact that others culti- vate and heed such is no reason, dear, do you feel, that we should?"
nyp.33433076059314	But was free- dom all?
nyp.33433076059314	But what can be done?"
nyp.33433076059314	But what did he know of such?
nyp.33433076059314	But while land was selling and selling readily the country would and could not maintain it?
nyp.33433076059314	CHAPTER II WHICH?
nyp.33433076059314	CHAPTER X"YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN THIS WAY BEFORE"WHEN AGNES STEWART found her father and they were ready to return home, she inquired:"Did he see you?"
nyp.33433076059314	CHAPTER XVI THE EVIL GENIUS"/^\H> JEAN,"breathed Orlean, from the bed,"where 1 M have you been?"
nyp.33433076059314	Ca n't you take a joke?"
nyp.33433076059314	Credit?
nyp.33433076059314	Did he speak to you on the street?"
nyp.33433076059314	Did the editor not have a conversation with yon before the article appeared?"
nyp.33433076059314	Do you realize, Agnes, had it not been for you, I — I — would not be sitting here now?
nyp.33433076059314	Do you recall of having ever heard your daughter or any one say what deeded land in that section sold for?"
nyp.33433076059314	Do you understand?"
nyp.33433076059314	Does your head pain you much?"
nyp.33433076059314	Duty?
nyp.33433076059314	EUGENE CROOK 225"Is that so?"
nyp.33433076059314	Even had he been blind he could have known he was among them, for was not there the usual noise; the old laugh, and all that went with it?
nyp.33433076059314	Finally he heard himself speaking, and in a voice that seemed to come from far away:"Ah — well — did my wife have — attention?"
nyp.33433076059314	For what more could he have wished?
nyp.33433076059314	Get it?"
nyp.33433076059314	Guess I may depend on you to be ready that day?"
nyp.33433076059314	Had he, done that, too?
nyp.33433076059314	Had n't you heard about it?"
nyp.33433076059314	Has something happened?
nyp.33433076059314	Have you a'phone?"
nyp.33433076059314	Have you any idea who the plaintiff is going to use as witnesses?"
nyp.33433076059314	Have you never heard of Jean Baptiste?
nyp.33433076059314	Have you never seen a woman who never changed her mind — especially when there was a man in the case?"
nyp.33433076059314	Have you really not seen a colored girl in a whole year?"
nyp.33433076059314	Have you sent him word when he could?"
nyp.33433076059314	He caught his breath and held his hand over his heart, as he heard her voice:"Papa, is that you?
nyp.33433076059314	He lowered his eyes in thought as his lips muttered:"Wonder where he is?"
nyp.33433076059314	He petted her a moment and then, placing his hand under her chin, raised her head and said:"Well, now, my dear, what is the matter?"
nyp.33433076059314	He raised his hand to his head and was thoughtful, before saying:"Why were you so disturbed over me seeing the letter, Orlean?
nyp.33433076059314	He said — well, I ca n't quite explain, but he — he wants to marry me, mama, and you know — well, mama, you under- stand, do n't you?"
nyp.33433076059314	He was not injured, she was relieved to see; but what-was the matter?
nyp.33433076059314	He was possessed with a business turn of mind, and one 407 IRENE GREY 409"How much do you have to have to go down there?"
nyp.33433076059314	He was succeeding in the game of reform(?)
nyp.33433076059314	He will be there over Sunday you say?
nyp.33433076059314	Her father was a minister, a dispenser of the gospel, and while for reasons we will become acquainted with in due time, WHICH?
nyp.33433076059314	How can it be your fault when you have sacrificed the nice home in Chicago for this wilderness?"
nyp.33433076059314	How could I get married?
nyp.33433076059314	How could I?
nyp.33433076059314	How did he come to utter her name and say that he had waited?
nyp.33433076059314	How did you make him understand?"
nyp.33433076059314	How far is that?"
nyp.33433076059314	How is Pearl?"
nyp.33433076059314	How long would it take for her to be his mate again at this rate?
nyp.33433076059314	How should I know?
nyp.33433076059314	How were you impressed with him when you met him later at this friend's house?"
nyp.33433076059314	How would he be able to face these friends if they failed to accept the book?
nyp.33433076059314	I almost be- seeched you, because — oh, do n't you understand what is in me, that I am as all men, weak?
nyp.33433076059314	I hear they are parted?'
nyp.33433076059314	I said:'I do n't understand you?'
nyp.33433076059314	I suppose I can count you as witness to the fact?"
nyp.33433076059314	I think it's in your eyes; but I do understand that whatever it is it is something good — it could n't be other- wise, could it?"
nyp.33433076059314	I wonder if he could board me?"
nyp.33433076059314	I wonder whether she will testify that she overheard your father- in- law abusing this Baptiste to his wife?"
nyp.33433076059314	I — would like to speak to you?"
nyp.33433076059314	INTERMARRIAGE OF RACES 151"Come to what?"
nyp.33433076059314	If not, then, where might I find her?"
nyp.33433076059314	If so then what would he write?
nyp.33433076059314	In hell and its tortures did you say?
nyp.33433076059314	Is it not so?"
nyp.33433076059314	Is she a single woman or married?"
nyp.33433076059314	Is that all?'
nyp.33433076059314	Is that quite true?"
nyp.33433076059314	It does n't stop here; but you catch it and go to the station above here, do you under- stand?"
nyp.33433076059314	It does not seem reasonable to suppose that he granted her the privilege to sign his name to checks to secure money with which to leave him?"
nyp.33433076059314	It was rather singular, however, he now thought; for if such had happened, and he had seen it, then why had he not stopped the robber?
nyp.33433076059314	K.?'
nyp.33433076059314	M- m. Then who purchased it for her, Rever- end?"
nyp.33433076059314	Me, for murder?"
nyp.33433076059314	Merley's?"
nyp.33433076059314	Merley?"
nyp.33433076059314	Not away down on that farm southeast?"
nyp.33433076059314	Now what would it all come to?
nyp.33433076059314	Now — a — who solicited that write- up?
nyp.33433076059314	Now, are those girls straight?'
nyp.33433076059314	Now, supposin'you married a white woman and brought her here to Chicago, who would you associate with?
nyp.33433076059314	Now, what am I to do?
nyp.33433076059314	Now, what am I to do?
nyp.33433076059314	Or was it her presence?
nyp.33433076059314	PRESCOTT PROPOSES 123 XVII HARVEST TIME AND WHAT CAME WITH IT 131 EPOCH THE SECOND I REGARDING THE INTERMARRIAGE OF RACES 143 II WHICH?
nyp.33433076059314	Perhaps it just happened so?
nyp.33433076059314	Presently she said in a low voice:"Do you feel hurt badly, Jean?"
nyp.33433076059314	Pruitt?"
nyp.33433076059314	She called him:"Father?"
nyp.33433076059314	She says:'Is she sick physically, or mentally?'
nyp.33433076059314	She turned to him, and said:"What are you doing here?"
nyp.33433076059314	Shortly she felt his hand upon her shoulder and she turned to hear him say: ORLEAN 183"Wo n't you come back into the parlor?
nyp.33433076059314	Should he confess?
nyp.33433076059314	So he had arisen, that was sure; but why had he not come for his meal?
nyp.33433076059314	So you are home to dinner?"
nyp.33433076059314	Some you have bought since you have been married?"
nyp.33433076059314	Soon she heard him, as she clung to his arm, allowing her body to rest against his shoulder: 274 THE HOMESTEADER"How much for, Orlean?"
nyp.33433076059314	Soon she said:"Do you play?"
nyp.33433076059314	THE GREAT QUESTION 289"Well?"
nyp.33433076059314	THE MYSTERY 511"Well, the house where he stops is just a few doors — about a half dozen — up the street —""On the same side or the opposite?"
nyp.33433076059314	THE PREACHER'S EVIL INFLUENCE 307"Where is Orlean?"
nyp.33433076059314	Tell them that it had been rejected as unavailable?
nyp.33433076059314	That much money?"
nyp.33433076059314	That would be the first thing to do, would n't it, Jean?"
nyp.33433076059314	That, I recall is the home of the Sioux?"
nyp.33433076059314	The melting smile she bestowed him with was quite sufficient, so seeing, he continued:"And do you wish to become his wife?"
nyp.33433076059314	The old fellow who moved out here recently from Indiana?"
nyp.33433076059314	The only ques- tion was, would E. M. Glavis have the courage to go through with it?
nyp.33433076059314	The question is —""Are they worth anything?"
nyp.33433076059314	The station I refer to is only four miles above this, and when you get off there, catch another train that comes in a few minutes back this way, see?"
nyp.33433076059314	Then who rode the horse?
nyp.33433076059314	Then why did not he, Jean Baptiste, act?
nyp.33433076059314	Then why should it be?
nyp.33433076059314	Then, to whom?
nyp.33433076059314	Then:"Are you married yet?"
nyp.33433076059314	There is nothing wrong between us — never has been, nor between you and I now either, is there?"
nyp.33433076059314	Therefore, can I be forgiven if I say to you; if I ask you, Miss McCarthy,"and so saying, he turned to her, his face serious,"to become my wife?"
nyp.33433076059314	Thinking of what?""
nyp.33433076059314	This, this, do you hear?
nyp.33433076059314	Throw up my hands and quit, or try to see Orlean and get her around to reason?
nyp.33433076059314	To have her to talk to; her to tell the truth to and share what little happiness there was to be had in life, he became overly anxious?
nyp.33433076059314	WHICH?
nyp.33433076059314	Wanta go long?"
nyp.33433076059314	Was he aware also that the preacher occupied this particular room?
nyp.33433076059314	Was he the cause of what he saw in this girl's face?
nyp.33433076059314	Was it all because Jean Baptiste loved his wife?
nyp.33433076059314	Was this a. proposal or was it a play?
nyp.33433076059314	Well, here's what it was, and I hope she said it:'Why, Ethel, how is Orlean?'
nyp.33433076059314	Were they not little boys once themselves?"
nyp.33433076059314	What becomes of women who are deceived?
nyp.33433076059314	What did he pay for the place?"
nyp.33433076059314	What did it mean?
nyp.33433076059314	What do I want with him?
nyp.33433076059314	What do you say to it?"
nyp.33433076059314	What does she know about it?"
nyp.33433076059314	What does that mean?"
nyp.33433076059314	What happened next?"
nyp.33433076059314	What is there between love and duty?
nyp.33433076059314	What is your opinion, hav- ing been on the property, of its actual worth?"
nyp.33433076059314	What part of Indiana do you come from?"
nyp.33433076059314	What was it?
nyp.33433076059314	What was passing in her mind?
nyp.33433076059314	What was the matter with her?
nyp.33433076059314	What you want to ask me such a question for?
nyp.33433076059314	When he had drunk deeply and lay back weakly upon the pillow, he heard:"How do you feel, Jean?"
nyp.33433076059314	When shall I bring her?"
nyp.33433076059314	When she met my eyes she sighed, and then said:'Do you think he can hurt papa, Mildred?
nyp.33433076059314	When will your father- in- law be in?"
nyp.33433076059314	When would the railroad be extended out of Bonesteel westward?
nyp.33433076059314	Where did you go, sweet one?
nyp.33433076059314	Where is Speed, and the wife of his you ruinedf Where?
nyp.33433076059314	Where shall we find him?"
nyp.33433076059314	Where would VANITY 203 they sit?
nyp.33433076059314	Where?
nyp.33433076059314	Which?
nyp.33433076059314	Which?
nyp.33433076059314	Which?
nyp.33433076059314	Who could keep from liking you?"
nyp.33433076059314	Who was this man that he should call her name and say that he had waited?
nyp.33433076059314	Who would not under such circumstances?
nyp.33433076059314	Who?'
nyp.33433076059314	Why did n't I come to the house?
nyp.33433076059314	Why do you not wear some of your summer dresses?
nyp.33433076059314	Why do young men call to see any young ladies?"
nyp.33433076059314	Why should I come to your house, when the last time I was there I was kicked out, virtually kicked out, do you hear?"
nyp.33433076059314	Why should he be seen?
nyp.33433076059314	Why should they be separated?
nyp.33433076059314	Why should we be keeping this a secret from him — rather, why should I?
nyp.33433076059314	Why was it that they understood each other so well?
nyp.33433076059314	Why would n't you be welcome?
nyp.33433076059314	Why"was she away?
nyp.33433076059314	Why, why, why?
nyp.33433076059314	Will that be all right, dear?"
nyp.33433076059314	Will that be alright?"
nyp.33433076059314	With Jean?
nyp.33433076059314	With sudden im- pulse, she turned to Mrs. Reynolds who had not inter- rupted:"It will be nice, now, wo n't it?"
nyp.33433076059314	Would it be worth while?
nyp.33433076059314	Would you like to look forward and feel that you had to go through all your life what your mother has endured?"
nyp.33433076059314	Yes, and where are my brothers?
nyp.33433076059314	You are hurt, do you understand?"
nyp.33433076059314	You are perhaps, then, newcomers here?"
nyp.33433076059314	You did n't kill him, you did n't kill her — you did n't kill anybody, did you, Jean?"
nyp.33433076059314	You have her, is she not enough?
nyp.33433076059314	You have her, is that not enough?
nyp.33433076059314	You loved none of us, perhaps, and it was because you had not had the opportunity, maybe?"
nyp.33433076059314	You might have heard that Blanche is married?"
nyp.33433076059314	You never, I sup- pose, informed her husband regarding the transaction after the deal was closed?"
nyp.33433076059314	You'll be so kind as to wait until then, will you not?"
nyp.33433076059314	Your father had it cashed for you?"
nyp.33433076059314	•"Where?"
emu.10002350164	A lady? emu.10002350164 A person with original ideas has no place in society?"

emu.10002350164	And, pray what is he to do?
emu.10002350164	But how is my mother? emu.10002350164 But if we write frequently,"inquired Susan,"may we not be too forward?
emu.10002350164	But what about yourself?

emu.10002350164	But where are you going?
emu.10002350164	But, Father, Father, Father, Oh Father,she pleaded,"have n't some used the sword, and lived?
emu.10002350164	But, Uncle Abbot, what are we going to do in our own time?
emu.10002350164	Ca n't we stop this?'' emu.10002350164 Can you praise me?"
emu.10002350164	Can you.suffer the worries and anxieties of my situa¬ tion? emu.10002350164 Could the people come to this estate for about a half hour?"
emu.10002350164	Did n't he make of the poorest young peoples'meeting in town the largest and most interesting?
emu.10002350164	Do I pretend, William?
emu.10002350164	Do n't you know by now, William, that a woman ca n't tell a man everything? emu.10002350164 Do n't you know?"
emu.10002350164	Do n't you see I'm trying to guard your good name?
emu.10002350164	Do n't you see it's impossible?
emu.10002350164	Do these crimes continually occur without being pun¬ ished?
emu.10002350164	Do we know the will of God?
emu.10002350164	Do we not know that out of Chaos God formed the universe, that by making plants and beasts and man He willed us life? emu.10002350164 Do you know where Mr. Turner is?
emu.10002350164	Do you remember Wright's'The Shepherd of the Hills'?
emu.10002350164	Do you still wish me to remain, Miss Haskell?
emu.10002350164	Do you think we should rush out?
emu.10002350164	Do you think you could dance with a minister?
emu.10002350164	Doctor Harper, do you think we have acted merely upon impulse and not for the interests of the community?'' emu.10002350164 Dr. Harper,"he began pleasantly but serious¬ ly,"Have you as yet decided upon your new dean of girls?"
emu.10002350164	Dr. Smith has been a friend to every one of you, will you be a friend to him? emu.10002350164 Gentlemen, what are you going to do to these folks?"
emu.10002350164	Has Socrates come back again?

emu.10002350164	Has the time come when we should consider the sugges¬ tions of these men or must we wait longer? emu.10002350164 Have n't I already done so?"
emu.10002350164	Have you allowed her to answer you on this point?'
emu.10002350164	Have you tried?
emu.10002350164	How are we to get there? emu.10002350164 How has it come so suddenly as this?"
emu.10002350164	How many can you get?
emu.10002350164	How may we organize?
emu.10002350164	How will you fight?

emu.10002350164	I do not know?
emu.10002350164	I heard you say you were going to remain on the estate; but what's to be done concerning the other people?
emu.10002350164	If this is followed, however, then what? emu.10002350164 If two persons of good health love and wish to marry, who should gainsay them, be they white or black, or white and black?
emu.10002350164	If you were here,remarkt Susan, lowering her eyes tenderly,"do n't you know we should crowd your church?
emu.10002350164	Is it bread or is it William?
emu.10002350164	Is it just then, for God to burn his children not for a day, a week, or a year, but forever?
emu.10002350164	Is it lawful for a mother, for any offense her child might commit, to throw it into fire even for a moment?
emu.10002350164	Is n't she interested?
emu.10002350164	Is the God of those who oppress us our God? emu.10002350164 Is there present any young woman who would do so?"
emu.10002350164	Is- the business private?
emu.10002350164	It is far on its decline now,Susan remarkt,"do n't you see already the streaks of red and purple?"
emu.10002350164	Madame/'he began,can you tell me where I can find Mr. Smith?
emu.10002350164	May I not omit just one insignificant incident?
emu.10002350164	Miss Haskell, what would Reverend Smith say, if harm befell you in your effort? emu.10002350164 Miss Haskell?
emu.10002350164	Mr. Simpson, ca n't you do anything to stop this?
emu.10002350164	Mr. Tucker, have you ever visited Dr. Smith and sur¬ veyed the work he's doing? emu.10002350164 Mr. Wilson, I think that you are rather well protected on this estate, but what about your good neighbors?
emu.10002350164	Must I be carried to the skies On flowery beds of ease, Whilst others fought to win the prize And sailed thru bloody seas? emu.10002350164 No, what's the use?"
emu.10002350164	No?
emu.10002350164	Of what are you thinking, William?
emu.10002350164	Pardon me for being bold, but do you have any idea who the lady will be?
emu.10002350164	Pardon me, but what was my impudence?
emu.10002350164	Pardon me,put in Thelma at this point,"but may I interrupt you a wee bit?"
emu.10002350164	Should you have told, how could I meet him after that?
emu.10002350164	Smith, you'll be leaving- soon, wo n't you?
emu.10002350164	The man who stops robbers, who sees that workers are not only worthy of their hire, but actually gets it causes trouble?
emu.10002350164	The question'Where do I exert my greatest influence?' emu.10002350164 Thelma, Miss Haskell,"he remarkt upon seeing her,"what are you doing here?"
emu.10002350164	Thelma, Thelma, you're not going to let him go, are you? emu.10002350164 Then what are we going to do with this Bible?"
emu.10002350164	This is well said, but what are the utterances of the people generally?
emu.10002350164	Well, I suppose you can prosecute them when this is over, ca n't you?
emu.10002350164	Well, what do you think of the mob?
emu.10002350164	What can I do for you?
emu.10002350164	What can we charge concerning that?
emu.10002350164	What did she do?

emu.10002350164	How are you?"
emu.10002350164	How can he do this?
emu.10002350164	How can there be a democracy based on color rather than upon the inequality of merit?
emu.10002350164	How can we do this while we meet him so seldom?

emu.10002350164	I do n't know?
emu.10002350164	I do n't see vet what you're aiming at?"
emu.10002350164	I do not know the peril of your neighbors?
emu.10002350164	I do not mean to be inquisitorial, but are you doing all this without advice, without well qualified helpers?"
emu.10002350164	I fear, I fear —""What do you fear?"
emu.10002350164	I have n't seen her before: is she a stranger in these parts?"
emu.10002350164	I wonder if they'll be capable of holding out?"
emu.10002350164	I wonder who it can be?"
emu.10002350164	I'd marry, if I thot I'd have some days of pleasure; but why marry to make a widow and probably an orphan?
emu.10002350164	I'm at home, am I not, William?
emu.10002350164	I'm glad there's present at least one man from each of the farm?

emu.10002350164	If forced to protect your home, could you do so?
emu.10002350164	If man burns his child, he is a criminal?
emu.10002350164	If man will refrain from such punishment and try to reform his child,  iUjiot God do the same?"
emu.10002350164	If this were logically followed, where would the churches be?
emu.10002350164	If we should re¬ peat that act, where would be the inspiration?
emu.10002350164	In the case of dancing that is vicious, I'm ready to attack it now; but is the dancing which is conducted in public schools vicious?
emu.10002350164	In the thralldom of this deep religious emotion, with cares all dispelled, who thot of Thelma?
emu.10002350164	Is God different, if He burns His?

emu.10002350164	Is it not because we have been waiting on God and God has been waiting on us?
emu.10002350164	Is it not the democratic ideal?
emu.10002350164	Is it not worth while to try to learn more of this, that our light may shine?"

emu.10002350164	Is n't it remarkable how your mother seems to take no account of time?
emu.10002350164	Is n't my sister Julia just such an example?
emu.10002350164	Is n't that enough?
emu.10002350164	Is n't the machinery even too slow for him?"
emu.10002350164	Is n't the punch delight¬ ful?
emu.10002350164	Is not this the very thing she would oppose?
emu.10002350164	Is that true?
emu.10002350164	Is the THE IMMEDIATE JEWEL OF HIS SOUL 53 shedding of blood for the remission of sins an eternal law?

emu.10002350164	Is there someone you're trying to find?"
emu.10002350164	Is this a mark of ignorance on the part of our people or of the white?
emu.10002350164	Is this a matter to be spurned?
emu.10002350164	Is this right?
emu.10002350164	Is this the only way?
emu.10002350164	Is your life purpose the same?
emu.10002350164	Love, you will come to me?
emu.10002350164	Mayor Goodrich, Mayor Goodrich, down in your heart do you really think I ought to go?"
emu.10002350164	Mr. Clarkston, do you hear that singing?"
emu.10002350164	Must personality enter in?
emu.10002350164	Must the Negro not look more and more to himself for the activities and com¬ forts he deserves and desires?
emu.10002350164	Must there always be civil wars, rebellions, riots, strikes, and barbarous conquests?
emu.10002350164	Must there be another War of the Rebellion?
emu.10002350164	Now that you've got a chance to get him, surely you ai n't a going to back out?
emu.10002350164	Now what are your plans?
emu.10002350164	O saw ye bonnie Lesley As she gaed o'er the border?
emu.10002350164	Often she plaintively askt herself:"How is he to know this?"
emu.10002350164	On the other hand, nothing that the necessity of nature brings to pass can be a hardship to those who seek all good things from their own ability?'
emu.10002350164	Or did each have but a glimpse of the truth?
emu.10002350164	Our own citizens murder our most loyal citizens in cold blood and what do we do?
emu.10002350164	Our wrestling with the scorning, to do each fond behest Will win at least not frowns, but joy and loving at thy breast?
emu.10002350164	Peerless on the gridiron, in class, and in debate, who was this powerful son of Africa?
emu.10002350164	Pray tell me what white man wants to see a colored man outdo him?"
emu.10002350164	Seeing her thus absorbed, William askt,"What is vour meditation?
emu.10002350164	Seeing nothing done to alleviate the matter, the visitor askt,"Is there no way to stop this, but who are they after?
emu.10002350164	Shall it become the universal law?
emu.10002350164	Shall the undeserv¬ ing continue receiving blessing, while the worthy are crusht under foot?
emu.10002350164	Shall we condemn their depths of zeal?
emu.10002350164	Shall we leave them?
emu.10002350164	Shall we of all peoples, forgetting the spirit of our ancestors, wait for others to fight ours?
emu.10002350164	She lookt about mirthfully and said,"Are all seated?"
emu.10002350164	Should I do dis?"
emu.10002350164	Should he be willing to die even for it?
emu.10002350164	Should he break other customs or should he for the interim permit the right of way to any who sought to enter it?
emu.10002350164	Should he enter the theological school or choose some other calling?
emu.10002350164	Should he go to Washington for the larger work and at; a later date re¬ turn to Seaton or should he offer the malefactors of race a firm resistance?
emu.10002350164	Should he go?
emu.10002350164	Should he not keep his?
emu.10002350164	Should he speak freely?
emu.10002350164	Should hurricanes with ruin rampant, give us battle at the start?
emu.10002350164	Should it not rather be so?
emu.10002350164	Should she follow her mother's advice or Thelma's?
emu.10002350164	Should she go or remain?
emu.10002350164	Should she speak or keep silent?
emu.10002350164	Since you know them all, ca n't you bring them together at one place for me to speak to them?"
emu.10002350164	Smith after many moments of reflection,"what are the people doing?
emu.10002350164	Smith just await the ministers'bidding?
emu.10002350164	Smith, is n't it?"
emu.10002350164	Smith?
emu.10002350164	Smith?
emu.10002350164	Smith?"
emu.10002350164	Stamford, is not God unknowable?
emu.10002350164	Still if he did not mean to con¬ sider her, why did he not tactfully turn the question, to dis¬ cuss some other subject?
emu.10002350164	Stone,"askt the president,"do you permit a ques¬ tion?"
emu.10002350164	THE IMMEDIATE JEWEL OF HIS SOUL 287"Why did I come?
emu.10002350164	The meek shall inherit'the earth?
emu.10002350164	The question on every lip was,"who'll lead?
emu.10002350164	Thelma quickly scanned its contents and then spoke with some degree of alarm and dismay,"What's the matter with these white folks?
emu.10002350164	Thelma stared at Susan, as if in amazement, laughed heartily and then said,"Girls, does n't she put the case well?"
emu.10002350164	Thelma, why have you done this?"
emu.10002350164	Then came another question provoked by the friendly in¬ tercourse with Henry Lee,"How can I repay them?"
emu.10002350164	Then looking about to see if all were there, he askt,"Is there anyone here who does n't know THE IMMEDIATE JEWEL OF HIS SOUL 301 what he is to do?"
emu.10002350164	Then the tender maiden askt herself,"What did Milton say?
emu.10002350164	Then turning the conversation as much as possible, he askt,"Has your journey been pleasant?"
emu.10002350164	Then why should I be unwelcome?"
emu.10002350164	There were inquiries of"How are you enjoying yourself?
emu.10002350164	This is truly a wonderful estate, is n't it?"
emu.10002350164	Thy dusky prince unto himself must build a seperate race, United with his for en folk, to rise unto his place?
emu.10002350164	To learn the other phase of the issue, she askt,"How did you win the white farmer?"
emu.10002350164	Turning more directly to her adversary, she requested good- naturedly,"Tell me please why you did n't dismiss me, but preferred to ask me to resign?
emu.10002350164	Turning towards him, she said,"What do you wish Wil¬ liam?"
emu.10002350164	Unquestionably she would write; but should she risk all by making a disclosure and then launching the'fight of her life?'
emu.10002350164	W'e have first sought the kingdom of God, now have these other things been added unto us?
emu.10002350164	Wait for him to choose someone else, I suppose?
emu.10002350164	Wait for him to choose someone else?
emu.10002350164	Wait?
emu.10002350164	Wait?
emu.10002350164	Wait?
emu.10002350164	Was each now to be the death of each?
emu.10002350164	Was he not after all an exalted instrument in the hands of unscrupulous people?
emu.10002350164	Was he the posessor of that dominant will?
emu.10002350164	Was he the promist emancipator of his race or should we look for another?
emu.10002350164	Was he worthy of this care?
emu.10002350164	Was her temperament against her?
emu.10002350164	Was his complexion a handicap?
emu.10002350164	Was it a noble life like Christ's that would save men from them¬ selves?
emu.10002350164	Was it not His will, that Christ should teach'Love thy neighbor as thy self?'
emu.10002350164	Was it not the shedding of blood?
emu.10002350164	Was it possible that Susan had come anyhow?
emu.10002350164	Was not Thelma's last utterance an avowal of love?
emu.10002350164	Was that speech a chal¬ lenge?
emu.10002350164	Was there a common foe?
emu.10002350164	Was there also tragedy?
emu.10002350164	Was there also tragedy?
emu.10002350164	Was there now or had there been a demand for strict conformity?
emu.10002350164	We call Nero cruel, but what about our own people?"
emu.10002350164	We could n't help it, could we girls?"
emu.10002350164	We were always told that we could not have too many churches, but did we think that out for ourselves?
emu.10002350164	We'll have to get up a party that they may go, wo n't we?"
emu.10002350164	Were no more to come?
emu.10002350164	Were there not more independent farmers just out from Seaton than anywhere in the state?
emu.10002350164	Were they equally happy?
emu.10002350164	Were they on guard or were they trusting to chance?
emu.10002350164	What are they doing?
emu.10002350164	What are you doing now, my child?"

emu.10002350164	Would I not be called an infidel and my career as a minister finisht with its beginning?"
emu.10002350164	Would n't you?
emu.10002350164	Would not some one with great courage risk his life for the child?

emu.10002350164	Yet how few marriages of any sort are without some differences?
emu.10002350164	You are indeed more radical than I, but would n't my love offset that?"
emu.10002350164	You did not acquire your lovely homes until he came; will you be able to hold them, if he falls and dies?
emu.10002350164	You have n't met my nephew, have you?"
emu.10002350164	You know the pagan philosophy: Eat, drink, and be merry today, for tomorrow we die?"

emu.10002350164	You're not going to leave, are you?
emu.10002350164	Your work instead of obtaining the good- will of the ordinary white farmer may merely aggravate the evil you are trying to stamp out?

emu.10002350164	or should she wait, striving in the meanwhile by tact to force a declaration from him?
uc1.b2839282	. ” She hesitated so long that he asked: “ But what? ” “ It's your house, and they are your neighbors.
uc1.b2839282	111 “ But what happened? ” “ I ’m terribly sorry.
uc1.b2839282	128 “ It's better for you. ” How could she introduce any doubting questions into such a harmonious atmosphere?
uc1.b2839282	147 After a while he asked, “ Shall I get my neighbor to come over or should we go there?"
uc1.b2839282	201 But what would happen when Philip and his friends arrived?
uc1.b2839282	204 “ I guess you men are ready to eat, are n't you?"
uc1.b2839282	34 “ Wo n't you have a cup of coffee?
uc1.b2839282	4 “ There's a movie I'd like to see, would you?
uc1.b2839282	Above all, if she were married to him would she cease worrying about the time he would spend away from her?
uc1.b2839282	After walking a half a block she asked, “ How about to- morrow night? ” “ It's Wednesday.
uc1.b2839282	Again came the thought, “ Will Joan remember this 114 conversation?
uc1.b2839282	Also did the clothes in the bottom drawer fit this woman?
uc1.b2839282	Am I really in love with the 23 man?
uc1.b2839282	Am I using the same underhanded tactics as she?
uc1.b2839282	And I am. ” “ Can you walk around without pain? ” “ Nearly.
uc1.b2839282	And I've the plants to set in the ground. ” What was he planning to do?
uc1.b2839282	And were those her cigarettes that had been upstairs?
uc1.b2839282	And you said you'd come out. ” “ When is our next opera? ” “ Not for over three weeks.
uc1.b2839282	Are you free on that night? ” “ I can come over later.
uc1.b2839282	Are you going in with me? ” “ Yes, I planned to. ” Marie broke into the conversation, “ Have supper with us.
uc1.b2839282	Are you going out this week? ” “ No, the hot weather has made it hard to work.
uc1.b2839282	Are you planning to drive out with Richard and his wife? ” “ I have n't spoken to him lately.
uc1.b2839282	Are you really coming this time? ” “ Yes, do n't you worry. ” “ I made this a collect call.
uc1.b2839282	Are you really taking this man seriously? ” “ More or less.
uc1.b2839282	As he came towards her, she looked up and smiled, and asked “ The same book? ” He nodded in affirmation.
uc1.b2839282	As he was leaving her, she questioned, “ You're not going for the night? ” “ You only asked me to come say good- night.
uc1.b2839282	As she was the only adult left at the beach, would they realize he had stayed behind to talk to her?
uc1.b2839282	As she worked he exclaimed, “ I do n't even know what's behind them. ” “ Why do n't you make another set of shelves along this wall?
uc1.b2839282	As they left class the following week, he asked, “ Will you go to a show this Saturday night? ” “ I'd love to.
uc1.b2839282	As they were walking across the room, she inquired, “ Whose class are you taking? ” “ I do n't know his name.
uc1.b2839282	Basically he's a very liberal- minded person. ” “ What do you mean?
uc1.b2839282	But a woman's voice asked, “ Are you Mrs. Morgan? ” “ Yes, I am. ” “ My name is Irene Walker.
uc1.b2839282	But did you get the two dollars I left on the little table at your house? ” 132 “ Yes, I did.
uc1.b2839282	But did your father say anything about Philip's being here? ” “ No, do n't worry.
uc1.b2839282	But do n't go to much trouble. ” “ Another cold meal will be all right? ” “ Of course.
uc1.b2839282	But do you like the idea? ” “ I do.
uc1.b2839282	But if you call, tell them who it is, and I'll come to the phone. ” Why would n't he generally go to the telephone when he re- ceived a call?
uc1.b2839282	But should she have directed him to her cabin where he would be completely confident of his reception?
uc1.b2839282	But to probe deeper into his feelings — had he reached the conclusion that he wished to become a part of it?
uc1.b2839282	But what time is it?
uc1.b2839282	But why are you washing those things? ” She was quite intimidated at the sharp way he spoke to her.
uc1.b2839282	But would n't he enjoy it if he once got here?
uc1.b2839282	Ca n't you come down? ” “ I was going to ask if I could.
uc1.b2839282	Ca n't you see it would be? ” “ That's what I'm saying.
uc1.b2839282	Can I phone you? ” “ My number is WA 9- 73490.
uc1.b2839282	Can we go out to dinner after I look up a few references? ” “ I ’d like to. ” 31 It was Tuesday.
uc1.b2839282	Can you come out during that time? ” Louise could tell that her daughter was especially anxious to convey to Philip that he would be most welcome.
uc1.b2839282	Could he be two men?
uc1.b2839282	Could it really be true that he was coming?
uc1.b2839282	Could she conceive of a life without him?
uc1.b2839282	Could we go to a movie later on in the day?
uc1.b2839282	Dear Philip: Do you mind if I take your story to the editor of a magazine which we both know?
uc1.b2839282	Desperately she asked, “ Why not?
uc1.b2839282	Did everyone especially look at them or was she imagining it?
uc1.b2839282	Did he constantly think of her as being different, and need a chance to spend not too many consecutive hours with her?
uc1.b2839282	Did he really know how much she loved him, or would he conclude that she was more unattainable than ever?
uc1.b2839282	Did he regret the events of the weekend, and not want her to take them too seriously?
uc1.b2839282	Did he think she was only asking him there because the adults were away?
uc1.b2839282	Did he want to remain with her, or did he not wish to in- trude himself upon them?
uc1.b2839282	Did he? ” “ No, he's working for a contractor who always starts another job as soon as he finishes one.
uc1.b2839282	Did her being there mean enough to him to compensate for her disappoint- ment of spending two days practically alone?
uc1.b2839282	Did my snoring keep you awake? ” “ No, you were n't snoring.
uc1.b2839282	Did you enjoy the holidays in the country?
uc1.b2839282	Did you figure out one? ” “ No, not yet.
uc1.b2839282	Did you get the car ready? ” She knew that her mentioning the car would indicate she wanted him to take her out to her place in the country.
uc1.b2839282	Did you go out to the country? ” “ No, I stayed right here and worked both days.
uc1.b2839282	Did you have any trouble getting in yesterday morning? ” “ No, I had a seat on both bus and subway.
uc1.b2839282	Did you make up my bed? ” “ No, I thought you would sleep with me. ” “ You really do n't mind?
uc1.b2839282	Did you make up my bed? ” “ No, I thought you would sleep with me. ” “ You really do n't mind?
uc1.b2839282	Did you not mail it even though you said you would?
uc1.b2839282	Did you think I would refuse or did you not want me to go?
uc1.b2839282	Do n't you remember that I said I could come out this weekend?
uc1.b2839282	Do n't you want to? ” Again there was a long pause.
uc1.b2839282	Do you mind if we do n't know what opera they are playing? ” “ No, I'd enjoy any one of them.
uc1.b2839282	Do you mind? ” “ Of course not.
uc1.b2839282	Do you really have to go?
uc1.b2839282	Do you take route 17 the whole way? ” “ Yes, except the last eight miles.
uc1.b2839282	Do you think I should? ” This was a difficult question to answer in an off- hand manner.
uc1.b2839282	Do you think you can find it? ” “ Yes.
uc1.b2839282	Do you want to go? ” he asked her.
uc1.b2839282	Do you want to take it down? ” She gave the number and he repeated it.
uc1.b2839282	Does Laura like him? ” “ Yes, very much.
uc1.b2839282	Does he live in a community where my appearance would cause much gossip among his neighbors?"
uc1.b2839282	Does he really mean that much to you? ” Louise had never failed to spend the entire weekend when visiting this sister.
uc1.b2839282	Does that give you plenty of time? ” She had agreed, as she always did, having acquired this habit over many years.
uc1.b2839282	Finally Marie asked, “ Who's going to put out the fire? ” John immediately started hunting for something that would contain water.
uc1.b2839282	Finally he asked, “ Have you a pencil and paper? ” “ Yes. ” “ Here are the directions.
uc1.b2839282	Had he not then intui- tively concluded that her being with her family was of far greater importance to her than occasional evenings spent with him?
uc1.b2839282	Had n't she already steeled herself for a cooling- off period to his latest advances?
uc1.b2839282	Had not Joan's attitude toward Philip 238 today proved to him the truthfulness of her depiction of her daughter?
uc1.b2839282	Had the lady who came to use his typewriter been correct in her state- ment that he had not been driving for a long time?
uc1.b2839282	Had this conversation been a very deceitful way of making Joan agree to her marriage with Philip?
uc1.b2839282	Had those words in any way altered his reaction to the situation concerning the three of them?
uc1.b2839282	Has it been very hot working? ” “ Yes, but I do n't mind it.
uc1.b2839282	Have you 18 thought of what they might say?
uc1.b2839282	Have you any more pages ready for me? ” “ No, I have n't.
uc1.b2839282	Have you many plans for the weekend? ” “ No, none at all. ” That was a gratifying statement to hear; his answer was both quick and positive.
uc1.b2839282	Have you marked that date on your calendar? ” “ Yes, I wo n't forget; you know I wo n't. ” He suddenly 152 started to leave.
uc1.b2839282	He had ironed a shirt to wear, and she had asked him, “ Can I iron and mend these other shirts while you're gone? ” “ Why not.
uc1.b2839282	He introduced himself by saying, ‘ You must be Marie's sister? ’ ” 235 “ Yes, he's a friend of theirs.
uc1.b2839282	He kissed her, and asked: 82 “ You wo n't care if I go sleep alone?
uc1.b2839282	He seems to be very nice, does n't he? ” “ Yes, he does.
uc1.b2839282	He works on a night shift, and is generally here when I leave in the morning. ” “ Shall I ask him for it?
uc1.b2839282	How am I going to get in to- 38 night? ” She sat down on her coat, looking extremely for- lorn.
uc1.b2839282	How are the things we transplanted? ” she asked him.
uc1.b2839282	How are you this evening? ” “ Fine, and yourself? ” “ Never felt better.
uc1.b2839282	How are you this evening? ” “ Fine, and yourself? ” “ Never felt better.
uc1.b2839282	How are you? ” She preceded him into his sitting room.
uc1.b2839282	How could he be so glad to see her if there were anything amiss between them?
uc1.b2839282	How could he become surfeited with her during the course of two wonderful evenings, when he had not seen her for a long time?
uc1.b2839282	How could he think she would know?
uc1.b2839282	How could you do so much?
uc1.b2839282	How did she look tonight?
uc1.b2839282	How did you find your brother? ” So he had received her letter.
uc1.b2839282	How did you know?
uc1.b2839282	How did you make out? ” “ They've not organized a seminar yet.
uc1.b2839282	How formal should she be now that they were coming to her house?
uc1.b2839282	How is it in the country? ” “ Much cooler than where you are, and the swimming is nice.
uc1.b2839282	How long could she read?
uc1.b2839282	How long have you known him? ” “ Nearly a year; but we've only been going out together lately.
uc1.b2839282	How long should she wait for him to get in touch with her?
uc1.b2839282	How should she dress?
uc1.b2839282	How would he act?
uc1.b2839282	How would he greet her?
uc1.b2839282	I bathed this afternoon. ” “ Shall we change the bed?
uc1.b2839282	I brought some papers I want to discuss with you. ” How could he be so casual about something so utterly important?
uc1.b2839282	I ca n't call you, can I? ” “ Yes, I wrote today to have the phone turned on, as I have rented the apartment for the month of August.
uc1.b2839282	I could n't do it alone. ” As he said nothing she anxiously continued, “ How about Saturday?
uc1.b2839282	I did think of trying to get you there. ” “ Why did n't you come out anyway?
uc1.b2839282	I do n't think we should travel without, do you? ” She noticed that he did n't mention renewing his driver's license.
uc1.b2839282	I enjoyed it so much. ” “ I will expect you on Saturday whether I call you on Friday or not. ” “ About eleven o'clock? ” she questioned.
uc1.b2839282	I hate to rush. ” “ Yes, have you had time to read the plot? ” “ No, the book you gave me is in New Jersey. ” “ I ’ll take my book.
uc1.b2839282	I know you're glad it's Friday night. ” “ When are you leaving for the country — tomorrow morning? ” “ Early; about nine o'clock.
uc1.b2839282	I never mentioned it to him again, but he has treated me the same as always. ” “ How about your sisters? ” Joan still would insist.
uc1.b2839282	I saw Richard and Fanny on Sunday and they want to drive out to your place. ” “ That's wonderfull Do you still have the directions? ” “ Yes.
uc1.b2839282	I want you to meet him. ” Hanging up the receiver she immediately thought, “ Will he get here before Laura does?
uc1.b2839282	I went out to New Jersey on Saturday, spent the night, but came back early Sunday. ” Was this statement true?
uc1.b2839282	I'll ask a neighbor to water them this week. ” “ Wo n't you let me cook lunch? ” “ Sure, if you want to.
uc1.b2839282	I'm looking forward to your coming out. ” “ Yes, after this job is over. ” “ Why could n't you go out on the train with me tomor- row morning?
uc1.b2839282	I've a friend in the hospital I should go and see. ” “ When are the visiting hours? ” “ Between seven and eight.
uc1.b2839282	If I typed them for you, could n't you work on them better? ” “ I certainly could.
uc1.b2839282	If he could n't reply to this simple in- vitation, how could she expect him to make any statement more compromising?
uc1.b2839282	If you ca n't get over to your place tomorrow, could n't I go and collect the rent? ” “ I'm afraid not.
uc1.b2839282	If you had n't let him in I would have had the same bill as last time. ” 161 “ Shall I give you your key? ” “ I'd like to have it.
uc1.b2839282	In fact, should she not be relieved that she would not be respon- sible for all the pleasures he might desire?
uc1.b2839282	Is n't it all the way out on Long Island? ” “ Well, I'd like to know what it's all about.
uc1.b2839282	Is n't it getting late? ” He arose and went over to move her chair, and kept hold of her elbow while they were leaving the restaurant.
uc1.b2839282	Is n't this bed big enough? ” For an answer she leaned over and kissed the top of his head as he was still seated at the table.
uc1.b2839282	Is she very young? ” “ No, she must be older than I: she has been a widow for seven years.
uc1.b2839282	Is that all right? ” “ Sure, we'll work it out together. ” So, it was n't entirely all right, it had to be worked out later.
uc1.b2839282	It has rained quite a lot. ” “ Where are you now? ” “ In Brooklyn. ” “ Why do n't you come over?
uc1.b2839282	It has rained quite a lot. ” “ Where are you now? ” “ In Brooklyn. ” “ Why do n't you come over?
uc1.b2839282	It will take me nearly two hours to get home at this time of night. ” “ Did you enjoy the opera? ” “ I certainly did.
uc1.b2839282	It's a European film in a midtown theatre. ” His startled expression said, “ Do you really mean it? ” His voice acquiesced haltingly.
uc1.b2839282	It's at the very end of my spine. ” “ Did you hurt yourself when you stooped over sud- denly?"
uc1.b2839282	It's only nice in the summer. ” “ Shall I leave the car here? ” asked Richard.
uc1.b2839282	Let's walk up; it's only one flight. ” “ I have never been here before, have you? ” he asked as he took her arm going up the stairs.
uc1.b2839282	Louise said, “ I ’m glad they do n't have company. ” Did his relaxed manner really portray his inner feelings?
uc1.b2839282	Marie will tell you what she needs. ” She sat down next to Joan, asking, “ Where are the boys? ” “ Playing tennis or swimming.
uc1.b2839282	May I take you to dinner before the show? ” “ Please come to my apartment instead.
uc1.b2839282	May I use the telephone?
uc1.b2839282	Might she not be suffering when it was totally unnecessary?
uc1.b2839282	Moreover, would he always care for her as he now did?
uc1.b2839282	Must she again settle down to a go- slow policy, letting him always take the initiative?
uc1.b2839282	No, do n't you worry about that. ” What did he mean?
uc1.b2839282	Now you have a room in town, I'll see you oftener. ” “ Shall I call you early in the morning when I'd be sure of reaching you?
uc1.b2839282	One evening she asked, “ Would you mind if I invited two couples to dinner next time you are here?
uc1.b2839282	Or had he deliberately shortened the time so that dinner would consume the only hour left before the show?
uc1.b2839282	Or was he gradually becoming more willing to have them in love with each other?
uc1.b2839282	Or, was she afraid that, as she had asked for his 25 show of affection, the situation was not truly indicative of his feelings?
uc1.b2839282	Philip will be here; we have tickets for a show. ” “ Shall I come? ” Laura asked.
uc1.b2839282	Please, ca n't you say something? ” They had arrived at her little cabin.
uc1.b2839282	Remember we have tickets for “ Rigoletto'for Friday. ” “ This coming Friday?"
uc1.b2839282	Shall I bring it to you? ” “ Yes, I would like to read it. ” “ I ’ll take it to your office one day soon.
uc1.b2839282	Shall I come to your apartment? ” “ Yes, she seemed to think that would be the simplest way.
uc1.b2839282	Shall I meet you at the theatre? ” “ If you do n't mind. ” The time was arranged.
uc1.b2839282	Shall we eat something now?"
uc1.b2839282	Shall we go down? ” 211 to be a tacit agreement that her entering the scene would not interrupt the conversation.
uc1.b2839282	She met me there last night. ” “ What is she like?
uc1.b2839282	She must gain something from his having gone; had he not in- stantly called her upon his return?
uc1.b2839282	She overheard Marie saying, “ Yes, we've known him for some time. ” “ Is he connected with William in his work? ” “ No, he is n't.
uc1.b2839282	She said it should n't take more than a half hour. ” “ Will it be all right if I come over at eight? ” “ Sure. ” “ See you then.
uc1.b2839282	She was startled when the receiver was picked up, and she could barely manage to say, “ Hello, how are you? ” “ Oh, Louise, where are you?
uc1.b2839282	She was startled when the receiver was picked up, and she could barely manage to say, “ Hello, how are you? ” “ Oh, Louise, where are you?
uc1.b2839282	She was suddenly brought back to the immediate pres- ent by his asking, “ What time is the show Friday night? ” “ Eight- thirty.
uc1.b2839282	Should she ask him to stay?
uc1.b2839282	Should she attribute his lack of en- thusiasm to the debilitating effects of his job?
uc1.b2839282	Should she forget about him — or try to forget?
uc1.b2839282	Should she return to her original plan of never asking him to do anything?
uc1.b2839282	Should she stay around the apartment in order to receive his call, or should she try to forget it?
uc1.b2839282	Should she wear her usual sum- mer costume of slacks and sleeveless blouse, or dress con- ventionally?
uc1.b2839282	Should we be going along?
uc1.b2839282	Slowly and most seriously he asked, “ Are you sure you want me to come? ” “ Of course I am.
uc1.b2839282	Speaking pleasantly, when her daughter returned to the telephone, she asked, “ How are the children?
uc1.b2839282	There is no forwarding number. ” Would he have any regrets that he had not come to see her on the last night she was to be in town?
uc1.b2839282	Therefore you were n't plan- ning to call me for many days, giving me time to cool off from any intended upbraiding?
uc1.b2839282	They'll never know I'm here. ” She hoped he would frankly express his desire for her to stay: if he wanted her for next Friday, why not now?
uc1.b2839282	Those past events concerned her no longer, but should she not have gained some beneficial experiences to help her in her current dilemma?
uc1.b2839282	Tired or rested?
uc1.b2839282	To his reply, “ Benson, ” she made the usual query, “ How are you? ” “ Oh, Louise.
uc1.b2839282	Tonight would she speak of her again?
uc1.b2839282	Truthfully she could n't conceive of Philip staying with her on Twelfth Street; therefore, how could she expect him to consider such a plan?
uc1.b2839282	Under such circumstances would he have enjoyed the evening?
uc1.b2839282	Was he angry about something, or was he truly in a great hurry?
uc1.b2839282	Was he interpreting her words to mean something entirely different from what she had intended?
uc1.b2839282	Was he that unsure of his position with her?
uc1.b2839282	Was it hazardous to be looking forward to spending a few 137 days alone with him?
uc1.b2839282	Was she again going to become steeped with doubts and fears?
uc1.b2839282	Was she the first white woman willing to be his girl friend, and did this situation confront him with too many conflicting ideas?
uc1.b2839282	Was she wrong to encourage him in this way?
uc1.b2839282	Was there anything in it I would n't want to read? ” “ No, how could there be?
uc1.b2839282	Was there anything in it I would n't want to read? ” “ No, how could there be?
uc1.b2839282	Was this Mary's writing?
uc1.b2839282	Was this his method of procedure now 56 that he knew her so well?
uc1.b2839282	We might be coming while you're there. ” “ I hope you can. ” “ How's your job working out for the summer? ” Louise asked.
uc1.b2839282	We went away in such a hurry that I did n't lock the door. ” “ Does it matter? ” “ No; except during the winter months.
uc1.b2839282	We've got plenty of time. ” “ I wo n't. ” “ Is n't it nicer to be slow? ” “ Do you enjoy waiting as much as I do? ” “ I do n't know.
uc1.b2839282	We've got plenty of time. ” “ I wo n't. ” “ Is n't it nicer to be slow? ” “ Do you enjoy waiting as much as I do? ” “ I do n't know.
uc1.b2839282	Were there constant demands over his telephone, and her voice only signified something easy for him to cope with?
uc1.b2839282	Were you able to get a rest before coming here? ” “ Yes, I feel fine.
uc1.b2839282	Were you afraid I would start raving at you, as has happened to you in similar past experiences?
uc1.b2839282	Were you going to tell me not to come?
uc1.b2839282	What did she really care if everyone eventually discovered she had a definite interest in town?
uc1.b2839282	What did you do? ” She thought how that little note and the two dollars would puzzle him and convey how much he could hurt her.
uc1.b2839282	What do you mean about it's not being tidy?
uc1.b2839282	What do you think? ” “ It is n't worth it.
uc1.b2839282	What is the address there? ” He gave it to her, although she already had it.
uc1.b2839282	What is the reason for his silence? ” The telephone rang about six o'clock, and she was actu- ally trembling when she picked up the receiver.
uc1.b2839282	What particular incident had changed his attitude towards her?
uc1.b2839282	What time are you leaving tomorrow morning? ” “ I ’ll leave about nine.
uc1.b2839282	What time did you leave? ” “ About nine.
uc1.b2839282	What time do you get up? ” “ A quarter to eight.
uc1.b2839282	What time do you plan to leave in the morning? ” “ If you are n't going to be there, I wo n't have any reason for hurrying.
uc1.b2839282	What was the advantage of having a man in love with you if he did n't care about spending much time with you?
uc1.b2839282	What was to be gained now by further deception?
uc1.b2839282	What will she think when she finds out the com- plete story? ” IX Philip arrived promptly at Marie's house the next eve- ning.
uc1.b2839282	What would he say?
uc1.b2839282	When are you coming out to visit us in the country? ” “ Not during the summer months.
uc1.b2839282	When are you going back to the city? ” “ About eight.
uc1.b2839282	When did you come in? ” “ Not till late afternoon; that's why I did n't come to the library. ” “ Where are you now?"
uc1.b2839282	When did you come in? ” “ Not till late afternoon; that's why I did n't come to the library. ” “ Where are you now?"
uc1.b2839282	When will you get here on Saturday? ” “ About noon.
uc1.b2839282	Where are my pajamas? ” This question startled her.
uc1.b2839282	Who is this man?
uc1.b2839282	Why alter her habits when she was with him?
uc1.b2839282	Why are you so late? ” “ I ’m sorry. ” She had purposely chosen this hour; she did n't want him to think she was too anxious to see him.
uc1.b2839282	Why did she extricate herself from his embrace, gather up a pile of dishes from the table, and take them into the kitchen?
uc1.b2839282	Why did that detestable char- acteristic of doing always what she should do instead of what she wanted to do have to crop up at such a crucial moment?
uc1.b2839282	Why do n't I let him decide?
uc1.b2839282	Why do n't you come over? ” Surely he would be willing to please her momen- tarily.
uc1.b2839282	Why do n't you come to the library and go there with me?
uc1.b2839282	Why do n't you try to come out with Richard and his wife? ” “ I ’ll call him and see if we can plan it.
uc1.b2839282	Why do n't you wait and let me help you plant them? ” “ If I put them in tomorrow we can water them twice before leaving.
uc1.b2839282	Why had she turned off her telephone?
uc1.b2839282	Why wait any longer to send the following note?
uc1.b2839282	Why was he so hesitant?
uc1.b2839282	Why was she embarrassed at bringing up the subject of going to bed?
uc1.b2839282	Why worry?
uc1.b2839282	Why would he make such an expenditure if he were not expecting material gain?
uc1.b2839282	Why?
uc1.b2839282	Will I have time for a bath? ” “ Sure. ” She went to him for another kiss before he started up the stairs.
uc1.b2839282	Will I lose those precious moments I've been longing for these many weeks?
uc1.b2839282	Will it be all right that way? ” “ Yes.
uc1.b2839282	Will she qualify? ” “ Oh, sure.
uc1.b2839282	Will you be coming out? ” Did he want to know in order to be with her or avoid her?
uc1.b2839282	Will you be coming out? ” Did he want to know in order to be with her or avoid her?
uc1.b2839282	Will you be free Thursday night? ” “ Yes, and you be sure to save it for me.
uc1.b2839282	Will you be there? ” “ I plan to be.
uc1.b2839282	Will you buy some? ” and he opened the bill section of his wallet.
uc1.b2839282	Will you order seats when the program changes?"
uc1.b2839282	With no hesitation whatsoever, she went over and took the seat next to his, and asked, “ How are you? ” He looked up and smiled.
uc1.b2839282	Wo n't I be seeing him there? ” “ That's a moot question.
uc1.b2839282	Wo n't I be seeing you again soon? ” “ I do n't know.
uc1.b2839282	Wo n't you be at the library Thursday afternoon? ” “ Yes. ” “ I ca n't get there before four- thirty.
uc1.b2839282	Wo n't you have supper with me? ” She did n't trust herself to stay until the evening.
uc1.b2839282	Wo n't you tell me why not?
uc1.b2839282	Would a whole week pass without her seeing him?
uc1.b2839282	Would he be loving or would he have assumed that stand- offish attitude she had inculcated into their last meeting?
uc1.b2839282	Would he be there now?
uc1.b2839282	Would he call or would he not?
uc1.b2839282	Would he come to her apartment without communicating with her?
uc1.b2839282	Would he mention Saturday?
uc1.b2839282	Would he stay after the other people left?
uc1.b2839282	Would he think she was avoiding him by not being at home when he had promised to call?
uc1.b2839282	Would it mean as much to her as she wished, and would she satisfy him?
uc1.b2839282	Would living with him soon tend to lose its glamour, and the added duties become burden- some?
uc1.b2839282	Would she add sufficient pleasure to his life to keep him satisfied with her?
uc1.b2839282	Would she ever honestly admit to herself that his being with her was not always of para- mount importance to him?
uc1.b2839282	Would she ever see them again?
uc1.b2839282	Would she then run the risk of losing him altogether?
uc1.b2839282	Would that be too early? ” “ I ’ll call you before nine. ” “ Ca n't you be more definite?
uc1.b2839282	Would that be too early? ” “ I ’ll call you before nine. ” “ Ca n't you be more definite?
uc1.b2839282	Would you like a cup of coffee first? ” She disliked this formal way of being taken care of and answered, “ A taxi is n't necessary.
uc1.b2839282	Would you like to come along? ” “ No, thanks.
uc1.b2839282	Would you like to go there? ” “ Yes, I would, ” he quickly responded.
uc1.b2839282	Would you mind that? ” “ You know I would n't.
uc1.b2839282	Would you rather do that or stay here? ” 229 to performing all the tasks of daily existence just when and how she wished.
uc1.b2839282	Would you read it to me? ” “ You read it to me. ” They settled down together on the couch.
uc1.b2839282	XII “ How did you enjoy the trip to New York, Mother? ” Joan asked when they were sitting at the lake the next afternoon.
uc1.b2839282	You do n't mind holding him, do you?
uc1.b2839282	You have the address, have n't you?
uc1.b2839282	You realize you saved me a trip out there. ” “ How was your back today?
uc1.b2839282	You've already done so much for me. ” What was the matter?
uc1.b2839282	for you? ” “ Yes.
uc1.b2839282	“ Anna is not coming? ” “ No, I did n't confirm the date with her in time to get in touch with the other woman.
uc1.b2839282	“ Are n't you coming in to say good- night? ” His caresses were very affectionate, but she did not like the finality they seemed to express.
uc1.b2839282	“ Are we planning to have a campfire supper down here this eve- ning? ” “ Yes.
uc1.b2839282	“ Are you asking me to come and help you clean up? ” “ Yes, I'll never get around to doing it myself.
uc1.b2839282	“ Are you hungry? ” “ Starved.
uc1.b2839282	“ Are you in town? ” Here she was again dropping back into the old habit of making the approach.
uc1.b2839282	“ Are you planning to go to New Jersey for the week- end? ” she asked him.
uc1.b2839282	“ Are you sure you are n't robbing yourself? ” asked Fanny.
uc1.b2839282	“ Been staying in New Jersey? ” “ No, just in and out.
uc1.b2839282	“ But do I wish to go ahead? ” she pondered.
uc1.b2839282	“ But how has it been in the country? ” “ Wonderful.
uc1.b2839282	“ But it might be he. ” “ Hello, Louise, how are you? ” “ All right — and yourself? ” “ Never felt better.
uc1.b2839282	“ But it might be he. ” “ Hello, Louise, how are you? ” “ All right — and yourself? ” “ Never felt better.
uc1.b2839282	“ Can we have a cup of coffee before we go to work? ” she asked, remembering that she had not needed to make this request on her first visit.
uc1.b2839282	“ Can you have supper with the children?
uc1.b2839282	“ Come in. ” “ Is Mr. Benson here? ” “ No, he's already gone to town.
uc1.b2839282	“ Did Fanny and Richard leave? ” “ Yes, they were worried about the long drive home.
uc1.b2839282	“ Did he regret having asked me to his house?
uc1.b2839282	“ Did the woman call you about the interviewing job? ” Louise asked her.
uc1.b2839282	“ Did you sleep? ” “ I certainly did, and I feel fine.
uc1.b2839282	“ Do n't you want a pillow? ” “ No, I'm comfortable this way. ” She shoved both pil- lows away and lay down beside him.
uc1.b2839282	“ Do n’t you want to come? ” “ Of course I do. ” “ So you are coming? ” How anxious he was to draw this happy conclusion.
uc1.b2839282	“ Do n’t you want to come? ” “ Of course I do. ” “ So you are coming? ” How anxious he was to draw this happy conclusion.
uc1.b2839282	“ Do you know when I have to get up to be at work by eight o'clock? ” “ Six o'clock? ” she queried.
uc1.b2839282	“ Do you know when I have to get up to be at work by eight o'clock? ” “ Six o'clock? ” she queried.
uc1.b2839282	“ Do you like the color?
uc1.b2839282	“ Do you mind if I take off my coat? ” he asked.
uc1.b2839282	“ Have you been writing? ” “ Yes, you'll be proud of me.
uc1.b2839282	“ Have you eaten supper? ” His greeting was almost me- thodical, as if he had experienced this identical situation with her for many years.
uc1.b2839282	“ How about a second breakfast cup of coffee? ” He jumped up, grasped both her hands to lift her from the grass.
uc1.b2839282	“ How about the restaurant on the corner of the next block uptown?
uc1.b2839282	“ How are you, Louise?
uc1.b2839282	“ How are you, Louise? ” “ All right, and you're going with me? ” “ No, I'm afraid not.
uc1.b2839282	“ How are you, Louise? ” “ All right, and you're going with me? ” “ No, I'm afraid not.
uc1.b2839282	“ How are you, Louise? ” “ Very well, and how are you? ” “ Well, just so- so.
uc1.b2839282	“ How are you, Louise? ” “ Very well, and how are you? ” “ Well, just so- so.
uc1.b2839282	“ How are you, Mother?
uc1.b2839282	“ How are you? ” “ Oh, Louise, where are you?"
uc1.b2839282	“ How are you? ” “ Oh, Louise, where are you?"
uc1.b2839282	“ How long have you been waiting? ” “ Only five minutes.
uc1.b2839282	“ How much rent are they paying? ” Louise asked.
uc1.b2839282	“ How strong is the string? ” “ You ca n't break it. ” “ All right.
uc1.b2839282	“ How's the front porch?
uc1.b2839282	“ I forgot to tell you the toilet is in the garage. ” “ In this vast outside do I have to know where the toilet is? ” She laughed aloud.
uc1.b2839282	“ I have n't seen him yet; I am planning to spend the day with him tomorrow. ” “ When did you get in? ” “ Not till one o'clock.
uc1.b2839282	“ I ’ve decided I'm not going tomorrow night. ” “ Why not? ” “ Well, you know the way it turned out yesterday and the week before.
uc1.b2839282	“ I ’ve missed you so much. ” “ Do you really like my sun tan? ” “ It's most becoming.
uc1.b2839282	“ I ’ve missed you. ” “ So have I, but you did n't have to go and leave me. ” “ Yes, I did. ” “ Why?"
uc1.b2839282	“ In Brooklyn. ” “ Why do n't you come over for a while? ” There was quite a long wait; she feared his reply.
uc1.b2839282	“ Is n't that too heavy to carry? ” She noticed how the 75 muscles of his arms protruded as he lifted the great mass of dirt and tree.
uc1.b2839282	“ It's beautiful country, is n't it? ” “ Yes, that lake is perfect, ” said Fanny.
uc1.b2839282	“ Laura looked beautiful tonight, did n't she? ” she asked him.
uc1.b2839282	“ Lots of things which are n't apparent at first glance, because the whole place looks so worn- out. ” “ Wo n't you show us? ” “ Sure.
uc1.b2839282	“ Louise, how are you? ” 198 “ Pretty good; are you planning to come out? ” “ Yes.
uc1.b2839282	“ Louise, how are you? ” 198 “ Pretty good; are you planning to come out? ” “ Yes.
uc1.b2839282	“ May I have Gunther's book called “ Inside Africa'? ” “ Certainly, ” she answered as she got down from her stool.
uc1.b2839282	“ May I try one? ” he asked.
uc1.b2839282	“ Mother, have you really considered how your brother and sisters will treat you? ” “ Of course I have thought about it a great deal.
uc1.b2839282	“ Must you be going so soon?
uc1.b2839282	“ My first wife liked it that way, too. ” Was n't he thus acknowledging that she was his second wife?
uc1.b2839282	“ No, he never calls during the week unless his plans have changed. ” “ Then he'll be out Friday night?
uc1.b2839282	“ Oh, Louise, how are you?
uc1.b2839282	“ Oh, is it he? ” Yes, it was.
uc1.b2839282	“ Philip Benson. ” “ What does he do? ” “ He makes his living as a carpenter, but also delves in real estate, and writing.
uc1.b2839282	“ Philip, how are you? ” “ Well, and yourself?
uc1.b2839282	“ Philip, how are you? ” “ Well, and yourself?
uc1.b2839282	“ Shall I bring you something refreshing to drink? ” “ No, thanks.
uc1.b2839282	“ Shall I call you Friday night? ” “ I ’d like for you to, but it is n't necessary.
uc1.b2839282	“ This is Louise. ” “ How are you? ” “ Not so good.
uc1.b2839282	“ This is Philip's favorite pastry from Sutters. ” 163 Turning to him she asked, “ When is your birthday?"
uc1.b2839282	“ What are you up to? ” She gave in completely.
uc1.b2839282	“ What did they say about your story? ” “ They liked it.
uc1.b2839282	“ What do you think? ” “ I ’ll have to see. ” Such a foreboding, noncommittal statement.
uc1.b2839282	“ What happened?
uc1.b2839282	“ What is the matter?
uc1.b2839282	“ What is this? ” “ Oh, it's only a loaf of bread. ” “ Wo n't you take a couple of cans of grease to make your soap?
uc1.b2839282	“ What is this? ” “ Oh, it's only a loaf of bread. ” “ Wo n't you take a couple of cans of grease to make your soap?
uc1.b2839282	“ What needs fixing on the house, Louise? ” asked Philip.
uc1.b2839282	“ What price have you put on it? ” “ Twenty thousand.
uc1.b2839282	“ What's the address? ” She gave him directions as to time and place and they lingered in conversation many minutes before they said good- night.
uc1.b2839282	“ What's the matter? ” “ I ’m disappointed; I really am, ” and he must have understood that she could hardly refrain from crying.
uc1.b2839282	“ What's this? ” He went to her, literally grabbed both her arms, and demandingly kissed her.
uc1.b2839282	“ When are you coming back to town? ” “ I do n't know, ” she said despondingly.
uc1.b2839282	“ When is Daddy coming? ” 240 “ There's plenty of cold milk in the ice box. ” She tried to get away from him.
uc1.b2839282	“ When would we go? ” So, he would consider it, or was he only stalling for time to ponder her momentous re- quest?
uc1.b2839282	“ When would we go? ” So, he would consider it, or was he only stalling for time to ponder her momentous re- quest?

mdp.39015025101117	A guy who was supposed to be your best friend, doing something like that?

mdp.39015025101117	Caldonia —"You know what being without a woman does to a man?
mdp.39015025101117	Can it erase time?
mdp.39015025101117	Can it give you back the years you spend in prison, can you go to bed with it, breathe it, eat it?
mdp.39015025101117	Can it melt those walls between you and the outside world?
mdp.39015025101117	Can you fix that, Jake?"
mdp.39015025101117	Could they touch him after the elections came in?
mdp.39015025101117	Did n't he and Scar have the toughest reputation of anybody that ever went to Marshall High?
mdp.39015025101117	Did n't you and Armenta years ago?

mdp.39015025101117	Do n't you think you better go inside?"
mdp.39015025101117	Do you really like me?"
mdp.39015025101117	Do — what I mean is, do colored girls go to bed with somebody just because they like them?"
mdp.39015025101117	Does n't he look cute?"
mdp.39015025101117	Even if I sprung ya?"
mdp.39015025101117	Feed the suckers the mainline — Red, Scar?
mdp.39015025101117	Funny how things change, ai n't it?"
mdp.39015025101117	Go sip on a milkshake and forget about it?"
mdp.39015025101117	Had n't he made it to Sadie and run across Pearl last week and shacked with her?
mdp.39015025101117	Had n't she?
mdp.39015025101117	Have n't I always taken care of my end of everything?"
mdp.39015025101117	He brought his fist down on the table, hardl"What's the matter, Bert?"
mdp.39015025101117	He did n't blame Maxine for what she had done, but damn, how was he to know?
mdp.39015025101117	He had a Cadil- lac too, a 1949 Cadillac, did you know that?
mdp.39015025101117	He knew his men, did n't he?
mdp.39015025101117	He wondered if they realized this would be the last time many of them ever saw each other?
mdp.39015025101117	He would n't be trying to lay down the law, would he?
mdp.39015025101117	He's got to be a pretty sharp boy, you know?
mdp.39015025101117	Her heart was hard as a rock, was n't that what Russell said?
mdp.39015025101117	Hey Leo, how'bout a nice sociable game of nine ball?"
mdp.39015025101117	Hey, Armenta, where you going?"
mdp.39015025101117	Hey, what you sniffing about?
mdp.39015025101117	How come I never met you before, anyway?"
mdp.39015025101117	How come I never saw you with him?"
mdp.39015025101117	How could a father tell his son to give up all of that and come back to the kind of life he was living a few years ago?
mdp.39015025101117	How do people get like that, Jake?"
mdp.39015025101117	How do you explain that, huh?
mdp.39015025101117	How does Scar do it?
mdp.39015025101117	How long you been living in this town?"
mdp.39015025101117	How many did you marry?
mdp.39015025101117	How many husbands have you had, Mrs. Waston?
mdp.39015025101117	How was he going to talk Monk into it though?
mdp.39015025101117	How you feeling?"
mdp.39015025101117	How you making it?"
mdp.39015025101117	How'bout that, huh?"
mdp.39015025101117	How's it sound to you, kid?"
mdp.39015025101117	How's tricks?"
mdp.39015025101117	I always felt could n't nothing happen to me, that's funny ai n't it?"
mdp.39015025101117	I feel a hundred pounds lighter and heavier all at the same time, you know what I mean, Russell?"
mdp.39015025101117	I got a good man 100] in each section, you follow me?
mdp.39015025101117	I know I should n't —""Should n't what?"
mdp.39015025101117	I mean what does he do?"
mdp.39015025101117	I most humbly beg your pardon, Mr. Parakeet, now tell me — oh did I mispronounce your name again?
mdp.39015025101117	I only wish —""I thought you outgrew being bashful?"
mdp.39015025101117	I shall have your visitor come and see you later —""I have a visitor?"
mdp.39015025101117	I should n't have asked you that, should I?"
mdp.39015025101117	I still do n't — wait a minute, Monk, you do n't mean — you do n't mean the bims?"
mdp.39015025101117	I think they're a long ways too big for your feet, you know what I mean?"
mdp.39015025101117	I wonder where she is?
mdp.39015025101117	If I had been there it would never have happened, or would it?
mdp.39015025101117	If Jake goofed?
mdp.39015025101117	If you do — if a guy ca n't carry the ball, he's got to get off the team before he messes the team up, you know that?"
mdp.39015025101117	Is he back in town?"
mdp.39015025101117	Is n't that what you tell everyone?
mdp.39015025101117	Is that chick still in town?
mdp.39015025101117	It bothering you, Morty?"
mdp.39015025101117	It was Scar, Jake's best friend, 3[ 5"Who you talking'bout, Maxine?"
mdp.39015025101117	It wo n't hurt nothing, will it?"
mdp.39015025101117	It's funny how a woman can grow on you, ai n't it?"
mdp.39015025101117	Jake —?"
mdp.39015025101117	Jake, are you still there?"
mdp.39015025101117	Jake, can I ask you something?"
mdp.39015025101117	Man, do n't Nellie kill you?"
mdp.39015025101117	Man, oh man, and he had thought he was smart setting up that little deal with Carl, that crooked dice hype, was n't that some- thing?
mdp.39015025101117	Marachy?"
mdp.39015025101117	Must it always be like this?
mdp.39015025101117	My wig is split..."Well, they were, they were —""They were what, Mr. Marachy?
mdp.39015025101117	Naw — hell, why should it?"
mdp.39015025101117	No answer, huh?
mdp.39015025101117	Nothing, another conquest, so what?
mdp.39015025101117	Now what did she see in him?"
mdp.39015025101117	Now what kind of sense does that make?"
mdp.39015025101117	Now, is n't it true, Mr. Marachy, that all of these absurd charges are figments of your imagination?"
mdp.39015025101117	Or would it be different, like the way you feel about Maxine is different?
mdp.39015025101117	Our house wo n't be anything like this?"
mdp.39015025101117	Rack the damn balls, will ya?"
mdp.39015025101117	Remember how you used to always tease me about making faces when I drank?
mdp.39015025101117	Remember the time we ate all that candy when we thought Pop was n't looking and got sick and he laughed at us?"
mdp.39015025101117	Remember'Early Au- tumn'?"
mdp.39015025101117	Russell?
mdp.39015025101117	See what I mean?"
mdp.39015025101117	She got a scholarship, did n't she?"
mdp.39015025101117	She thought she had to work, was n't that a joke?
mdp.39015025101117	So what?
mdp.39015025101117	Still, how in hell did Jake figure Monk would let him do something[ 91 like that?
mdp.39015025101117	Tell him to call as soon as you find him, no matter what time it is, will you?"
mdp.39015025101117	That ball must have gone fifty yards, and did you see how Hill came out of nowhere to take it?
mdp.39015025101117	That frigging bastard Jake Adams ai n't going to like it, and that's gon na make me feel real good, you know?"
mdp.39015025101117	That makes everybody loaded, do n't it?"
mdp.39015025101117	That was what was 202] much pent- up energy when he was with her, so what was so wrong in that?
mdp.39015025101117	That's a pretty rough deal finding somebody like that, you know that?
mdp.39015025101117	That's alL""When?"
mdp.39015025101117	That's funny, ai n't it?"
mdp.39015025101117	That's funny, is n't it?
mdp.39015025101117	The best guy for doing any- thing is the guy who knows his business backwards and for- wards and is happy doing it, right?"
mdp.39015025101117	Then when you finally get the ball where you want it, what do you do?
mdp.39015025101117	Think you tough, huh?
mdp.39015025101117	Was it because he was bad?
mdp.39015025101117	Was n't that some- thing?
mdp.39015025101117	Was that what made love, wanting to be bad with someone?
mdp.39015025101117	We're going to have a baby, you know?"
mdp.39015025101117	Well, just what do you think I'm smart enough to do?"
mdp.39015025101117	Well, she was his ole lady, was n't she?
mdp.39015025101117	Well, what are you going to do all those years you spend in prison?
mdp.39015025101117	What are you going to do about that?"
mdp.39015025101117	What could be greater than that?
mdp.39015025101117	What did you expect Monk to do, stick around and commit suicide?"
mdp.39015025101117	What good would you be to the org notorious?
mdp.39015025101117	What had he done?
mdp.39015025101117	What had they done to her?
mdp.39015025101117	What is your man anyway?
mdp.39015025101117	What kind of babe was she anyway?
mdp.39015025101117	What kind of sense does it make when you start to think about it?"
mdp.39015025101117	What the hell is this anyway?
mdp.39015025101117	What the hell, she did n't think he could make$ 75 a week, working a split- shift eight- hour day doing nothing* did she?
mdp.39015025101117	What was it Armenta felt watching Jake going down the steps?
mdp.39015025101117	What was so wrong with that?
mdp.39015025101117	What was wrong with him anyway?
mdp.39015025101117	What were they doing?"
mdp.39015025101117	What would Monk say if —?
mdp.39015025101117	What would you guys think if I told you the Cootas were going to be taken care of by a group even more professional than us?"
mdp.39015025101117	What you do that for?"
mdp.39015025101117	What you doing now?"
mdp.39015025101117	What you got to do with it?"
mdp.39015025101117	What you trying to prove anyway?"
mdp.39015025101117	What's eating you?"
mdp.39015025101117	What's so silly about that?"
mdp.39015025101117	What's the dif?"
mdp.39015025101117	What's the matter?"
mdp.39015025101117	What's the name of the jam?"
mdp.39015025101117	When I sight the object you just make the contact, O.K.?"
mdp.39015025101117	Where else would Jake be going?
mdp.39015025101117	Where you been?
mdp.39015025101117	Where you hear all of this?"
mdp.39015025101117	Which way you riding when it gets down to that, kid?"
mdp.39015025101117	Who in hell would n't if they could go out and buy them- selves a Cadillac on their nineteenth birthday?
mdp.39015025101117	Who is Armenta?
mdp.39015025101117	Who is this, Armenta?"
mdp.39015025101117	Who would n't be?
mdp.39015025101117	Who's the babe you ca n't make?
mdp.39015025101117	Who's the babe you ca n't make?
mdp.39015025101117	Why ca n't I ever do what I want to do?"
mdp.39015025101117	Why could n't she keep her face against his shoulder and not look at him like that?
mdp.39015025101117	Why did n't he come on?
mdp.39015025101117	Why did n't they get him instead of you?
mdp.39015025101117	Why did she like him so much?
mdp.39015025101117	Why did she sit in the dormitory reading an old letter from Jake when she could be out with Lou Carl, who was going into interning next semester?
mdp.39015025101117	Why did they do it?
mdp.39015025101117	Why do I always have to do what you want to do?
mdp.39015025101117	Why do n't you take care of your own and call Armenta?"
mdp.39015025101117	Why do n't you take her home so she can get some rest?
mdp.39015025101117	Why do you always have to do things so dangerous?"
mdp.39015025101117	Why does God let things like that happen?"
mdp.39015025101117	Why does n't it burn going down any more, Jake?
mdp.39015025101117	Why had she looked at him then?
mdp.39015025101117	Why should I?
mdp.39015025101117	Why should he be acting so silly around this broad anyway?
mdp.39015025101117	Why should n't I be?
mdp.39015025101117	Why the war council?"
mdp.39015025101117	Will you keep in touch with me, Jake?"
mdp.39015025101117	Would I be here if he had run out on you?
mdp.39015025101117	Would she have been the one in the car instead of Georgia?
mdp.39015025101117	Would you forget it if you were in my shoes?"
mdp.39015025101117	You ai n't scared are you?"
mdp.39015025101117	You and Scar ca n't shoot'cause you might hit one of our boys, you dig?
mdp.39015025101117	You chicken?"
mdp.39015025101117	You come by and sit in with me tomorrow, huh, Evelyn?"
mdp.39015025101117	You ever hear that joke — masturbation is the dearth of a nation?
mdp.39015025101117	You follow me or I got to draw a diagram?"
mdp.39015025101117	You getting to wondering what the Cootas going to be doing next?"
mdp.39015025101117	You got it?"
mdp.39015025101117	You great now, man, do n't you feel great, up in the clouds?
mdp.39015025101117	You guys know that?"
mdp.39015025101117	You had to prove you were somebody, did n't you?
mdp.39015025101117	You have n't seen him?"
mdp.39015025101117	You know something about romance?
mdp.39015025101117	You know something?
mdp.39015025101117	You know something?"
mdp.39015025101117	You know what?
mdp.39015025101117	You know why?"
mdp.39015025101117	You one of her men?
mdp.39015025101117	You ready to talk now?"
mdp.39015025101117	You really want to know something?
mdp.39015025101117	You say Frenchie says we can get the juniors and midgets?"
mdp.39015025101117	You say we got two leads, Scotty?"
mdp.39015025101117	You still so sorry your daughter's in New York?
mdp.39015025101117	You think if there was one he'd care what we said about him?"
mdp.39015025101117	You think my old man cares, or Pop and Mrs. Garveli having to listen to all that dirt about Georgia and me?
mdp.39015025101117	You think she's going to marry you knowing you're doing something funny?"
mdp.39015025101117	You trying to kill him?
mdp.39015025101117	You understand that?"
mdp.39015025101117	You want him, do n't you, sophis- ticated lady?
mdp.39015025101117	You're going to make me a feature dancer at the Paradise, are n't you, Russell?"
mdp.39015025101117	You're not doing anything wrong like robbing old ladies to pay for that thing, are you?"
mdp.39015025101117	Your boy took it pretty bad about Georgia, did you know that, Adams?"
mdp.39015025101117	[ 139 Do you know what's going to happen when you go looking for the Cootas?"
mdp.39015025101117	[ 153"Howya feel?"
mdp.39015025101117	[ 177"Will you?"
mdp.39015025101117	[ 211"What were you thinking about?"
mdp.39015025101117	[ 219"Remember that time —?"
mdp.39015025101117	[ 23"You in a hurry, Jake?"
mdp.39015025101117	[ 263"Why did n't you tell me before?"
mdp.39015025101117	[ 31"What the hell you pulling me away for?"
mdp.39015025101117	[ 99"Why?"
mdp.39015025101117	»"You know the guy?"
mdp.39015025101117	— Doc — everything was all right, was n't it?"
mdp.39015031233243	/* it? mdp.39015031233243 /* itf — i* it?"
mdp.39015031233243	A love affair— she paled with something like fear —"and I"— she started to speak, but could not —"I want to know what you think about Zora?"
mdp.39015031233243	About darky schools?
mdp.39015031233243	About how much?
mdp.39015031233243	Ain't, you got no money?
mdp.39015031233243	All the truth?
mdp.39015031233243	Always — tell — the truth?
mdp.39015031233243	Am I? mdp.39015031233243 And Sanders?"
mdp.39015031233243	And Zora?
mdp.39015031233243	And cotton?
mdp.39015031233243	And culture and work?
mdp.39015031233243	And do the people believe that?
mdp.39015031233243	And how long have you been buying it?
mdp.39015031233243	And let your neighbor sell them poison at all hours? mdp.39015031233243 And now,"he said,"Miss Wynn, what can I do for you?"
mdp.39015031233243	And say,as Easterly was turning away,"you know Congressman Smith?"
mdp.39015031233243	And so you ca n't leave?
mdp.39015031233243	And the Board of Education abolished?
mdp.39015031233243	And the other planters?
mdp.39015031233243	And then?
mdp.39015031233243	And these Cresswells to- day?
mdp.39015031233243	And throw the rest of our capital after the fifty thousand dollars we've already lost?
mdp.39015031233243	And what brings you to town afoot this time of day?
mdp.39015031233243	And what shall you do?
mdp.39015031233243	And what were you to pay for it?
mdp.39015031233243	And what's beyond the swamp?
mdp.39015031233243	And where do you live, Buddy?
mdp.39015031233243	And why do you hate it?
mdp.39015031233243	And why does she hold a lily?
mdp.39015031233243	And will they all be represented?
mdp.39015031233243	And with the teachers of it?
mdp.39015031233243	And yet you will stay?
mdp.39015031233243	And yonder to the west?
mdp.39015031233243	And you are still friendly with him?
mdp.39015031233243	And you?
mdp.39015031233243	And, Zora, what way do you seek? mdp.39015031233243 Are kisses illegal here?"
mdp.39015031233243	Are they honest and kind?
mdp.39015031233243	Are they not hard working honest people?
mdp.39015031233243	Are you going back there when you finish?
mdp.39015031233243	Are you men fools, or rascals? mdp.39015031233243 Are you sure of the path, Zora?"
mdp.39015031233243	Are you sure?
mdp.39015031233243	Are you the — er — the man who had a letter to the Senator?
mdp.39015031233243	Are you walking?
mdp.39015031233243	Are you — in a hurry, Miss Smith?
mdp.39015031233243	Are you.happy?
mdp.39015031233243	Back, is she? mdp.39015031233243 Behind where the sun comes up?"
mdp.39015031233243	Bigger?
mdp.39015031233243	Black or white?
mdp.39015031233243	Bles,she began didactically,"where are you from?"
mdp.39015031233243	Bles,she cried,"how can I grow pure?"
mdp.39015031233243	Bles,she said impulsively,"shall I tell you of the Golden Fleece?"
mdp.39015031233243	Bles,she said primly,"have you absolutely no shame?"
mdp.39015031233243	But could n't you hire some good workers?
mdp.39015031233243	But did n't you settle at Christmas?
mdp.39015031233243	But how about your raw material? mdp.39015031233243 But how can I know?"
mdp.39015031233243	But how shall we help him?
mdp.39015031233243	But how's cotton?
mdp.39015031233243	But if she escapes, why not you?
mdp.39015031233243	But others — a man's a man, is n't he?
mdp.39015031233243	But surely you did n't join her in advocating that ten million people be menials?
mdp.39015031233243	But that's been decided, has n't it?
mdp.39015031233243	But the other gown?
mdp.39015031233243	But the seed?
mdp.39015031233243	But the unselfish work she does — the utter sacri- fice?
mdp.39015031233243	But where are the houses?
mdp.39015031233243	But where have you sent them?
mdp.39015031233243	But where is it?
mdp.39015031233243	But where is it?
mdp.39015031233243	But who gave it to you?
mdp.39015031233243	But why do n't the planters do something?
mdp.39015031233243	But why is lies evil?
mdp.39015031233243	But why prolong the thing?
mdp.39015031233243	But you believe in some education?
mdp.39015031233243	But you mean to say you ca n't even advise her?
mdp.39015031233243	But — I do n't understand, Miss Smith — why ca n't you accept my offer?
mdp.39015031233243	But — but I thought they had already started to work a crop on the Tolliver place?
mdp.39015031233243	But — but how are — all?
mdp.39015031233243	But — but, dear Mrs. Vanderpool, you would n't want your children trained that way, would you?
mdp.39015031233243	But — will he?
mdp.39015031233243	But, Mrs. Vanderpool,she protested,"is it right?
mdp.39015031233243	But, Zora, must you folk ape our nonsense as well as our sense?
mdp.39015031233243	But,— presently, —"how can we sell it without the Cresswells knowing?"
mdp.39015031233243	By the bye, I met some charming Alabama people last winter, in Montgomery — the Cresswells; do you know them?
mdp.39015031233243	Ca n't I have the girl Zora?
mdp.39015031233243	Called?
mdp.39015031233243	Can I go?
mdp.39015031233243	Can it be, Bles Alwyn,she said,"that you do n't know the sort of girl she is?"
mdp.39015031233243	Can you put trust in that sort of help?
mdp.39015031233243	Can you?
mdp.39015031233243	Colton,he asked,"are you sending any of your white children to the nigger school yet?"
mdp.39015031233243	Come, is you? mdp.39015031233243 Cotton is a wonderful thing, is it not, boys?"
mdp.39015031233243	Could I buy a lunch from the dining- car?
mdp.39015031233243	Could I help?
mdp.39015031233243	Could she pass?
mdp.39015031233243	Did Helene attend the ball four years ago?
mdp.39015031233243	Did he say he meant to sign such a contract?
mdp.39015031233243	Did n't I tell you there was lots to learn?
mdp.39015031233243	Did n't you know that this Child Labor business was opposed to my interests?
mdp.39015031233243	Did you get that novel for me, Harry?
mdp.39015031233243	Did you know that he is to be invited to make the principal address to the graduates of the colored high- school?
mdp.39015031233243	Did you make that pin?
mdp.39015031233243	Did you see Colonel Cresswell sign this paper?
mdp.39015031233243	Did you suggest anything?
mdp.39015031233243	Do crazy folks forget?
mdp.39015031233243	Do fools like the Amer- ican people deserve salvation?
mdp.39015031233243	Do n't white folks make books?
mdp.39015031233243	Do n't you hate the deception?
mdp.39015031233243	Do n't you know that is a wicked, bad habit?
mdp.39015031233243	Do n't you see,he said angrily,"that that will ruin our plans for the Cotton Combine?"
mdp.39015031233243	Do they get that — ten cents an hour?
mdp.39015031233243	Do you ever tell lies, Zora?
mdp.39015031233243	Do you go to school?
mdp.39015031233243	Do you happen to have any whiskey handy?
mdp.39015031233243	Do you hear the bodies creaking on the limbs? mdp.39015031233243 Do you know how?"
mdp.39015031233243	Do you know me?
mdp.39015031233243	Do you know my people? mdp.39015031233243 Do you know no one in town?"
mdp.39015031233243	Do you live about here?
mdp.39015031233243	Do you mean to say he's actually slated for the place?
mdp.39015031233243	Do you mean to say that you are going to keep in this school a girl who not only lies and steals but is positively — immoral?
mdp.39015031233243	Do you s'pose mammy's the witch?
mdp.39015031233243	Do you stay there now?
mdp.39015031233243	Do you work for pay?
mdp.39015031233243	Does he furnish you rations?
mdp.39015031233243	Does she think them immodest?
mdp.39015031233243	Does you own the land?
mdp.39015031233243	Does, eh? mdp.39015031233243 Dreams?"
mdp.39015031233243	Enough to marry me?
mdp.39015031233243	Even if it hurts me?
mdp.39015031233243	Except who?
mdp.39015031233243	For what? mdp.39015031233243 General philanthropy?"
mdp.39015031233243	Gentleman is asking if you forgits it's Saturday night, sir?
mdp.39015031233243	God is the father of all the little babies, ai n't He, Bles?
mdp.39015031233243	Goobers?
mdp.39015031233243	Good white folk?
mdp.39015031233243	Got my letter?
mdp.39015031233243	H'm, they're way behind, are n't they? mdp.39015031233243 Harry, will you do me a favor?"
mdp.39015031233243	Hate what?
mdp.39015031233243	Have I shocked you?
mdp.39015031233243	Have n't I a right to have a gun?
mdp.39015031233243	Have you got the deed?
mdp.39015031233243	Have you hired a maid?
mdp.39015031233243	Have you many settlements?
mdp.39015031233243	Have you never heard of the Golden Fleece, Bles?
mdp.39015031233243	He deserved it, did n't he?
mdp.39015031233243	He's a fair God, ai n't He?
mdp.39015031233243	Helen?
mdp.39015031233243	Helps folks that they love? mdp.39015031233243 Here you, Jim, take the big mules and drive like — Where's that wench?"
mdp.39015031233243	Hired?
mdp.39015031233243	How about fighting for exercise?
mdp.39015031233243	How am I to know this is true?
mdp.39015031233243	How dare you?
mdp.39015031233243	How do you do, Miss Smith?
mdp.39015031233243	How do you mean?
mdp.39015031233243	How do you spell that?
mdp.39015031233243	How does you know He does?
mdp.39015031233243	How is my sister?
mdp.39015031233243	How long before the stalks will be ready to cut?
mdp.39015031233243	How much is that?
mdp.39015031233243	How much — farther will it drop?
mdp.39015031233243	How much?
mdp.39015031233243	How so?
mdp.39015031233243	How you know?
mdp.39015031233243	How's his cotton?
mdp.39015031233243	How's the school getting on?
mdp.39015031233243	How?
mdp.39015031233243	How?
mdp.39015031233243	I beg pardon, does the Miss Wynn live here who got the prize in the art exhibition?
mdp.39015031233243	I do hope the thing can be managed, but —"What are the difficulties?
mdp.39015031233243	I do n't suppose you know any one who is acquainted with any number of these Northern darkies?
mdp.39015031233243	I hate it, Bles, do n't you?
mdp.39015031233243	I mean, what work?
mdp.39015031233243	I mean, would the Cresswells approve of educating Negroes?
mdp.39015031233243	I suppose you hear from the school?
mdp.39015031233243	I thought it was the lazy, shiftless, and criminal Negroes, you feared?
mdp.39015031233243	I wonder what I shall make out of her?
mdp.39015031233243	I — er — came; that is, I believe you sent a group to the art exhibit?
mdp.39015031233243	I — er — meant to ask if Colonel Cresswell, in signing this paper, meant to sign a contract to sell this wench two hundred acres of land?
mdp.39015031233243	I'm driving round through the old plantation,he explained;"wo n't you join me?"
mdp.39015031233243	I've gambled — before; I've gambled on cards and on horses; I've gambled — for money — and — women — but —"But not on cotton, hey? mdp.39015031233243 If not I, who?"
mdp.39015031233243	In your dark lives,he cried,"who is the King of Glory?
mdp.39015031233243	Inclined to be a little nasty?
mdp.39015031233243	Indeed? mdp.39015031233243 Indeed?
mdp.39015031233243	Indeed?
mdp.39015031233243	Is it off?
mdp.39015031233243	Is it ready, Zora?
mdp.39015031233243	Is it wrong,asked Zora,"to make believe you likes people when you do n't, when you'se afeared of them and thinks they may rub off and dirty you?"
mdp.39015031233243	Is n't Bles developing splendidly?
mdp.39015031233243	Is n't it so — anywhere?
mdp.39015031233243	Is n't the census building wretched?
mdp.39015031233243	Is she very sick?
mdp.39015031233243	Is that all?
mdp.39015031233243	Is that so?
mdp.39015031233243	Is that wrong?
mdp.39015031233243	Is that you, Smith?
mdp.39015031233243	Is the Congressional business very heavy?
mdp.39015031233243	Is there any water near?
mdp.39015031233243	Is there anything in Washington that the South does not already own?
mdp.39015031233243	Is this a new gag?
mdp.39015031233243	Is this about this?
mdp.39015031233243	Is you afeared, honey?
mdp.39015031233243	Is — is anything the matter?
mdp.39015031233243	It is so late and wet and you're tired to- night — do n't you think you'd better sleep in your little room?
mdp.39015031233243	JimSykes?
mdp.39015031233243	Just begun?
mdp.39015031233243	Just what is your plan?
mdp.39015031233243	Know dem? mdp.39015031233243 Look like a fool, do I?"
mdp.39015031233243	Me? mdp.39015031233243 Mean?
mdp.39015031233243	Miss Smith's school?
mdp.39015031233243	Miss Smith, how much money have you?
mdp.39015031233243	Miss Smith, is yo'got a speller fo'ten cents?
mdp.39015031233243	Miss Smith, is yo'got just a drap of coffee to lend me? mdp.39015031233243 Miss Smith, who do you think has been here?"
mdp.39015031233243	Miss Smith, would Jim do to drive?
mdp.39015031233243	Mr. Cresswell would be their local representative?
mdp.39015031233243	Mr. Taylor, have you any money in this?
mdp.39015031233243	Mr. Taylor,said the lawyer carelessly,"were you present at this transaction?"
mdp.39015031233243	Mrs. Grey talked to you much?
mdp.39015031233243	Must you do as he wants?
mdp.39015031233243	My God — it walks — like my wife — I tell you — she held her head so — who is it?
mdp.39015031233243	My people? mdp.39015031233243 Never?"
mdp.39015031233243	Never?
mdp.39015031233243	No — well, what can I do for you?
mdp.39015031233243	No,he pressed her,"with your bargain?"
mdp.39015031233243	Now, about the niggers,the chairman had asked;"how much more boodle do they want?"
mdp.39015031233243	Now, what do you know,she asked finally,"about Negroes — about educating them?"
mdp.39015031233243	Now, what have you got there?
mdp.39015031233243	Of Colonel Cresswell?
mdp.39015031233243	Oh, you've noted it, too? mdp.39015031233243 Ought I to tell?
mdp.39015031233243	Our success?
mdp.39015031233243	Promise you wo n't tell?
mdp.39015031233243	Really, now, you do not mean to say that there is danger of — of amalgamation, do you?
mdp.39015031233243	Robert, where is the land Cresswell offers you?
mdp.39015031233243	Sam, is it? mdp.39015031233243 Say, Harry, how about that darky, Sykes?"
mdp.39015031233243	Say,he whispered another time,"do n't you want to buy these gold spectacles?
mdp.39015031233243	See those boys over there? mdp.39015031233243 Sell it?
mdp.39015031233243	She gets a salary, does n't she?
mdp.39015031233243	She lives in the swamp — she's a kind of witch, I reckon, like — like —"Like Medea?
mdp.39015031233243	So'm I,answered the boy, fumbling at his bundle; and then, timidly:"Will you eat with me?"
mdp.39015031233243	So? mdp.39015031233243 So?
mdp.39015031233243	Some time you'll tell me, please, wo n't you?
mdp.39015031233243	Something political?
mdp.39015031233243	Still thinking of going, are you, Sam?
mdp.39015031233243	Stillings?
mdp.39015031233243	Stuff?
mdp.39015031233243	Surely there must be many friends of our race willing to stand for the right and sacrifice for it?
mdp.39015031233243	Taylor, what does this mean?
mdp.39015031233243	The Cresswells?
mdp.39015031233243	The Silver Fleece?
mdp.39015031233243	The Tolliver place?
mdp.39015031233243	The brotherhood of man?
mdp.39015031233243	The problem, you mean?
mdp.39015031233243	The snake — what is he?
mdp.39015031233243	The world?
mdp.39015031233243	Then what's the use of seeing the world?
mdp.39015031233243	Then you can leave the place, Zora?
mdp.39015031233243	Then you care — for me?
mdp.39015031233243	Then you lies sometimes, do n't you?
mdp.39015031233243	There'e going to be racing out at the park this evening,said Harry,"Want to go?"
mdp.39015031233243	They are — wealthy people?
mdp.39015031233243	They may accommodate you — how much would you want?
mdp.39015031233243	They want us to revive the Farmers'League?
mdp.39015031233243	Tickets?
mdp.39015031233243	Tightening up on the tenants?
mdp.39015031233243	To be sure,she murmured,"but what sort of folks?"
mdp.39015031233243	Todd asks: Who is Vanderpool, anyhow? mdp.39015031233243 Todd just let fall something of a combination against us in Congress — know anything of it?"
mdp.39015031233243	True; but ca n't we force them to it?
mdp.39015031233243	Was n't what I said true?
mdp.39015031233243	Was she pretty?
mdp.39015031233243	Was the child born dead?
mdp.39015031233243	We wo n't work any more to- day, then?
mdp.39015031233243	We'se both crazy, ai n't we?
mdp.39015031233243	We've cornered the market all right — cornered it — d'ye hear, Cress- well? mdp.39015031233243 We?"
mdp.39015031233243	Well, I wants to see Mr. Harry very much; could I wait in the back hall?
mdp.39015031233243	Well, Uncle Jim, why are n't you at work?
mdp.39015031233243	Well, Zora, what have you there?
mdp.39015031233243	Well, all right, if — »Harry, I feel a little — hysterical to- night, and — you will not refuse me, will you, Harry?"
mdp.39015031233243	Well, are you all moved, Aunt Rachel?
mdp.39015031233243	Well, are you getting things in shape so as to enter school early next year?
mdp.39015031233243	Well, nigger, what are you going to do about it?
mdp.39015031233243	Well, sir?
mdp.39015031233243	Well, what do you want?
mdp.39015031233243	Well, what do you want?
mdp.39015031233243	Well, what then?
mdp.39015031233243	Well, who'd have dreamed it?
mdp.39015031233243	Well, why do n't you go to the office?
mdp.39015031233243	Well,asked Cresswell, maintaining his composure by an effort,"how are things?"
mdp.39015031233243	Well,shortly,"now for that talk — ready?"
mdp.39015031233243	Well?
mdp.39015031233243	Were they kind to their slaves?
mdp.39015031233243	What Smith?
mdp.39015031233243	What about Johnson?
mdp.39015031233243	What bargain?
mdp.39015031233243	What can I do for you?
mdp.39015031233243	What can I do to help you?
mdp.39015031233243	What can be done with Negroes?
mdp.39015031233243	What damned mummery is this?
mdp.39015031233243	What did you dis- agree about?
mdp.39015031233243	What do the colored people want, and who can best influence them in this campaign?
mdp.39015031233243	What do you do?
mdp.39015031233243	What do you mean?
mdp.39015031233243	What does Miss Wynn do for a living?
mdp.39015031233243	What does it amount to a year?
mdp.39015031233243	What does she intend to do?
mdp.39015031233243	What else?
mdp.39015031233243	What for?
mdp.39015031233243	What for?
mdp.39015031233243	What is it?
mdp.39015031233243	What is planted over there?
mdp.39015031233243	What is the matter, Bles?
mdp.39015031233243	What is the matter, Zora?
mdp.39015031233243	What is the matter, Zora?
mdp.39015031233243	What is the world like?
mdp.39015031233243	What is your plan?
mdp.39015031233243	What kinds?
mdp.39015031233243	What of it? mdp.39015031233243 What of it?"
mdp.39015031233243	What pin?
mdp.39015031233243	What shall we offer him?
mdp.39015031233243	What sort of people are the Cresswells?

mdp.39015031233243	Would it not be worth a fight?
mdp.39015031233243	Yes — but back of it all, what is it really? mdp.39015031233243 Yes, but ought you to tell them?"

mdp.39015031233243	You would not like me to act dishonestly, would you?
mdp.39015031233243	You'd let a nigger vote?
mdp.39015031233243	You've found some things worth knowing in this world, have n't you, Zora?
mdp.39015031233243	Zora —he gasped,"how — how did you do it?"
mdp.39015031233243	Zora,he said,"sometimes you tell lies, do n't you?"
mdp.39015031233243	Zora,she presently broke into the girl's absorption,"how would we like to be Ambassador to France?"
mdp.39015031233243	Zora,she said evenly,"why did n't you come to class when I called?"

mdp.39015031233243	A horror crept over Mary Cresswell: where had she lived that she had seen so little before?
mdp.39015031233243	After all why should he care?
mdp.39015031233243	After all, which was worse — a Cresswell or an Alwyn?
mdp.39015031233243	Ai n't that all?"
mdp.39015031233243	Always before she had been veiled from these folk: who had put the veil there?

mdp.39015031233243	And Bles — was Miss Taylor deceived?

mdp.39015031233243	And suppose I had?"
mdp.39015031233243	And then, brightening, he asked gayly:"And we'll be friends al- ways, wo n't we?"
mdp.39015031233243	And who could furnish that illumination better than Zora, the calm, methodical Zora, who knew them so well?
mdp.39015031233243	And why are you afraid for her?"
mdp.39015031233243	And why not?"
mdp.39015031233243	And yet, once in the hands of these past- masters of debt- manipulation, would her school be safe?
mdp.39015031233243	And yet, why should she hesitate?
mdp.39015031233243	And you graduated, I sup- pose, and all that?"
mdp.39015031233243	And, Sam, ca n't you find us a sandwich and something cool?
mdp.39015031233243	Anything on?"

mdp.39015031233243	Are you dumb?
mdp.39015031233243	Are you?"
mdp.39015031233243	As the two white riders approached the buggy one said to the other:"Who's that nigger with?"
mdp.39015031233243	At any rate, who was better?
mdp.39015031233243	At last, however, she said happily to Zora:"Well, the battle's over, is n't it?"

mdp.39015031233243	But if she talked again of mere men would these devotees listen?
mdp.39015031233243	But if she went there what would she see and do, and would it be possible to become such a woman as Miss Smith pictured?
mdp.39015031233243	But if she were especially invited?

mdp.39015031233243	Had she herself hung it before her soul, or had they hid- den timidly behind its other side?

mdp.39015031233243	Harry Cresswell laid his hand on his father's arm and said quietly:"And where do we come in?"
mdp.39015031233243	Harry Cresswell was not a bad man — are there any bad men?

mdp.39015031233243	He bent to her fiercely:"Who?"
mdp.39015031233243	He leaned against his hoe and talked half dreamily — where had he learned so well that dream- talk?
mdp.39015031233243	He watched her silently, till, waking from her day- dream, she abruptly asked:"Where you from?"
mdp.39015031233243	Helen regarded her brother through her veiling lashes: what meant this sudden assumption of warmth and amiability?
mdp.39015031233243	Her heart answered back:"What is impossible to youth and resolution?"

mdp.39015031233243	If it failed, would not they fail?
mdp.39015031233243	If she was not careful —"But what is it you want?"
mdp.39015031233243	If this went on, the day would surely come when Negroes felt no respect or fear whatever for whites?
mdp.39015031233243	If, now, you could drop a word here and there —""But why should I?"
mdp.39015031233243	In the parlor and have the servants astounded and talking?
mdp.39015031233243	In town?"
mdp.39015031233243	In vain her shrewd New England reason asked:"What can a half- taught blacky girl do in this wilderness?"
mdp.39015031233243	Is it fair — to the children?"
mdp.39015031233243	Is it fair?
mdp.39015031233243	Is it yo's?"
mdp.39015031233243	Is it you, little wife, come back to accuse me?
mdp.39015031233243	Is n't that your idea, Miss Smith?"
mdp.39015031233243	Is that an excuse for saying it?"
mdp.39015031233243	Is that woman's brother going to spend this money?
mdp.39015031233243	Is that you, Mr. Cole?
mdp.39015031233243	It might rain only an hour or so, but, suppose it should rain a day — two days — a week?
mdp.39015031233243	It oc- curred to her that she had heard that name before — but where?
mdp.39015031233243	It seemed to her that every breeze and branch was instinct with sympathy, and murmuring,"What's the use?"
mdp.39015031233243	It was all right, and yet why so suddenly had the threads of life let go?
mdp.39015031233243	MR. HARRY CRESSWELL 87"Said that, did he?"
mdp.39015031233243	Mr. Cresswell says they own almost no land here; think of it?
mdp.39015031233243	Must I study five years?"
mdp.39015031233243	My father writes me that they are showing signs of ex- pecting money right off — is that true?
mdp.39015031233243	New York?"
mdp.39015031233243	No more talk; no more consideration — kill THE ANNUNCIATION 309"What is Todd's bill?"
mdp.39015031233243	No spontaneity either — rather languid, did you notice?
mdp.39015031233243	Not less than half a million; per- haps three- quarters of a million; perhaps — was not cotton still rising?
mdp.39015031233243	Nothing?
mdp.39015031233243	Now here, everything seems to be happening; but what is it that ishappening?"
mdp.39015031233243	Now, I wonder where they got the music?
mdp.39015031233243	Now, have n't you a girl about here who would do?"
mdp.39015031233243	On the porch and have Mr. Maxwell ride up?
mdp.39015031233243	Or had it been some witch- vision of the night, come to tempt and lure him to his undoing?
mdp.39015031233243	Or was it simply a brute fact, regardless of both of them?
mdp.39015031233243	Or was the elf- girl real?
mdp.39015031233243	Or, was he happy?
mdp.39015031233243	Our?
mdp.39015031233243	Perhaps a mortgage on the strength of the endowment?
mdp.39015031233243	See?
mdp.39015031233243	Senator Smith regarded him again: was Cresswell play- ing a shrewd game?
mdp.39015031233243	Shall I make him an enemy?
mdp.39015031233243	Shall I resign and beg, or go tilting at windmills?
mdp.39015031233243	Shall I try in addition to reform?
mdp.39015031233243	She did not expect this, but she asked the porter:"Do you know where I can get a lunch?"
mdp.39015031233243	She dreamed and sang over that dark field, and again and again appealed to him:"S'pose it should n't come up after all?"
mdp.39015031233243	She felt impelled to go forward and ask — what?
mdp.39015031233243	She had thought of him as a boy — an old student, a sort of confidential servant; but what had he thought?
mdp.39015031233243	She helped herself to a chocolate and called out musically:"Pa, are you going to town to- day?"
mdp.39015031233243	She must be sent to board- ing- school, somewhere far away; but the money?
mdp.39015031233243	She must offer this unsullied soul up unto God in mighty atonement — but how?
mdp.39015031233243	She rang the bell, asking the trim black maid:"Is there a person named Caroline Wynn living in this house?"
mdp.39015031233243	She seemed to feel rather than hear his presence, and she in- quired softly:"Who's it, Bles?"
mdp.39015031233243	She smiled and said sweetly,"Wo n't you sit?"
mdp.39015031233243	She tried to think it out: what could have happened?
mdp.39015031233243	She was thinking rapidly — Was this the Way?
mdp.39015031233243	She wondered how she had done her part — had she been too eager and school- girl- ish?
mdp.39015031233243	She'll be reasonable, wo n't she, and placate the Cresswells?
mdp.39015031233243	She's planning to call some day — shall you be at home?"
mdp.39015031233243	Should he be one?
mdp.39015031233243	Somewhat to Miss Taylor's surprise Miss Smith said nothing until they were parting for the night, then she asked:"Was Miss Cresswell at home?"
mdp.39015031233243	Successful?
mdp.39015031233243	Suppose Mr. Alwyn should take this occasion to make a thorough defence of the party?"
mdp.39015031233243	Suppose he asked Caroline Wynn to help him in this THE CAMPAIGN* 69 case?
mdp.39015031233243	THE PROMISE 188"Tolerable, how are you?"
mdp.39015031233243	THE RETURN OF ALWYN 877 white people had such troubles; yet, he reflected, why not?
mdp.39015031233243	THE TRAINING OF ZORA 247"Then why do they go?"
mdp.39015031233243	TOWN 87"This is a great cotton country?"
mdp.39015031233243	Teerswell nodded and said: A MASTER OF FATE 323"Well, what do you think of last night?"
mdp.39015031233243	That's the way it is now, see?
mdp.39015031233243	The Negroes are not, then, very efficient?"
mdp.39015031233243	The Silver Fleece, how was it?
mdp.39015031233243	The Sun, the Swamp?
mdp.39015031233243	The World, the great mysterious World, that stretched beyond the swamp and into which Bles and the Silver Fleece had gone — did it lead to the Way?
mdp.39015031233243	The lagoon had been level with the dykes a week ago; and now?
mdp.39015031233243	The way where?"
mdp.39015031233243	Then Mary Taylor, whose conscience was uncom- fortable, said:"But, Mr. Cresswell, you surely believe in schools like Miss Smith's?"
mdp.39015031233243	Then Miss Taylor said, absently: THE PLACE OF DREAMS 73 Zora, what do you propose to do when you grow up?"
mdp.39015031233243	Then faint and fainter whisperings: what could be worse than death?
mdp.39015031233243	Then he said:"Colonel Cresswell, who drew this contract of sale?"
mdp.39015031233243	Then she said dreamily:"We'se known us all our lives, and — before, ai n't we?"
mdp.39015031233243	Then there was Zora; what had she said and hinted to Mary?
mdp.39015031233243	Then what?
mdp.39015031233243	Then with a puzzled look:"I wonder why?"
mdp.39015031233243	They ca n't concen- trate; notice how some slept when Dr. Boldish was speak- ing?
mdp.39015031233243	Treat Alwyn well and call on Miss Wynn as usual — see?"
mdp.39015031233243	Used to be one of our servants — you remember?
mdp.39015031233243	Usually, while he played at loving, women grovelled; for was he not a Cresswell?
mdp.39015031233243	Was Cresswell back of Taylor?
mdp.39015031233243	Was Death the Way — the wide, dark Way?
mdp.39015031233243	Was Elspeth now at peace?
mdp.39015031233243	Was it all straight, or did the whole move conceal a trick?
mdp.39015031233243	Was it not a rather dangerous experiment?
mdp.39015031233243	Was it not the King's Highway?
mdp.39015031233243	Was it possible that the price of Alwyn's manhood would be her husband's appointment to Paris?
mdp.39015031233243	Was there a change, sudden, cataclysmic?
mdp.39015031233243	Was there, after all, some"nigger- loving"conspiracy back of the cotton combine?
mdp.39015031233243	Was this rain beating down and back her love for him, or had she never loved?
mdp.39015031233243	Was this —"Nell's"?
mdp.39015031233243	We'll get this committee which Taylor suggests appointed, and send it on a junket to Alabama; you do the rest — see?
mdp.39015031233243	We'll put the cotton in- spection bill through in the last days of the session — see?
mdp.39015031233243	Well, I'm going to give you some money — do you know why?"
mdp.39015031233243	Well, why has he no appointment?
mdp.39015031233243	What did he care?
mdp.39015031233243	What did he ever do?
mdp.39015031233243	What do you propose?"
mdp.39015031233243	What does de good Book say?
mdp.39015031233243	What does it look like?"
mdp.39015031233243	What else could she have dreamed?
mdp.39015031233243	What had happened?
mdp.39015031233243	What had happened?
mdp.39015031233243	What must he pay for success?
mdp.39015031233243	What of the morning?
mdp.39015031233243	What school?"
mdp.39015031233243	What should she do?
mdp.39015031233243	What time?"
mdp.39015031233243	What was Wash- ington, and what was this fine, tall, quiet residence?
mdp.39015031233243	What was he to her?
mdp.39015031233243	What was she doing?
mdp.39015031233243	What was"Nell's"?
mdp.39015031233243	What would Elspeth do?
mdp.39015031233243	What would happen to her?
mdp.39015031233243	What's a maid?"
mdp.39015031233243	What's your name?"
mdp.39015031233243	What?
mdp.39015031233243	Where can we get land, with Cress well owning every inch and bound to destroy us?"
mdp.39015031233243	Where had Mrs. Cresswell seen her before?
mdp.39015031233243	Where had she known him?
mdp.39015031233243	Where is it?
mdp.39015031233243	Where should she receive him?
mdp.39015031233243	Where was that black and flaming cabin?
mdp.39015031233243	Where was the girl — the soul that had called him?
mdp.39015031233243	Where was the poor spoiled woman?
mdp.39015031233243	Where was the use of imagining?
mdp.39015031233243	Where was"Nell's"?
mdp.39015031233243	Where, Zora?
mdp.39015031233243	Where, and what mark?"
mdp.39015031233243	Who had rushed the news to this woman?
mdp.39015031233243	Who was caring for her, and what was she doing?
mdp.39015031233243	Who was doing it?
mdp.39015031233243	Who was he to falter when she called?
mdp.39015031233243	Who was he to stand and judge this unselfish woman?
mdp.39015031233243	Who was putting her to bed and smoothing the pillow?
mdp.39015031233243	Who would win — the witch, or Jason?
mdp.39015031233243	Who, then, should be nominated?
mdp.39015031233243	Whom do you think that's for?"
mdp.39015031233243	Why had he not known?
mdp.39015031233243	Why had he not stood his ground?
mdp.39015031233243	Why had neither Mary nor John Taylor mentioned this?
mdp.39015031233243	Why had she asked for her?
mdp.39015031233243	Why had she asked for this girl?
mdp.39015031233243	Why had they not let her see the child — just one look at its little dead face?
mdp.39015031233243	Why had they stolen from her?
mdp.39015031233243	Why is you trying to make dis ole world better?
mdp.39015031233243	Why not go back to the South where she had gone?
mdp.39015031233243	Why not go see him?
mdp.39015031233243	Why not send Zora?
mdp.39015031233243	Why not take this young man in hand and make a Negro leader of him — a protagonist of ten millions?
mdp.39015031233243	Why not?
mdp.39015031233243	Why should he be elbowed into the roadside dust by an insolent bully?
mdp.39015031233243	Why should he not be as other men?
mdp.39015031233243	Why should he pose as better than his fel-[ 146] MRS. GREY GIVES A DINNER 147 lows?
mdp.39015031233243	Why should not he go back, too?
mdp.39015031233243	Why should we who have sacrifice the substance for the shadow?"
mdp.39015031233243	Why should you spoil this black girl and put impossible ideas into her head?
mdp.39015031233243	Why was it?
mdp.39015031233243	Why was she drifting in vast waters; in uncharted wastes of sea?
mdp.39015031233243	Why were her eyes wet to- day and her mind on the Silver Fleece?
mdp.39015031233243	Why worry with more?"
mdp.39015031233243	Why, are you daft?
mdp.39015031233243	Why?
mdp.39015031233243	Why?
mdp.39015031233243	Will you go?"
mdp.39015031233243	Will you hear?
mdp.39015031233243	Willyou marry me?"
mdp.39015031233243	Wo n't you take a stand on some of these pro- gressive matters — this bill, or the Child Labor movement, or Low Tariff legislation?"
mdp.39015031233243	Would Rob become a tenant when she asked?
mdp.39015031233243	Would Uncle Isaac help her build a log home?
mdp.39015031233243	Would Zora make one or would this blow send her to perdition?
mdp.39015031233243	Would he be amenable to her training and become worldly wise?
mdp.39015031233243	Would not comrade- ship on the basis of the new friendship which she insisted on, be the death of love and thoughts of love?
mdp.39015031233243	Would this woman recognize that fact and respect him accordingly?
mdp.39015031233243	Would you like it?"
mdp.39015031233243	Yes — how about Mrs. Grey's education schemes?
mdp.39015031233243	Yes?"
mdp.39015031233243	Yet how should she do it?
mdp.39015031233243	Yet, perhaps — who can tell?
mdp.39015031233243	You can wheel the planters into line — will you do it?"
mdp.39015031233243	You never had a witch for a mammy — did you?"
mdp.39015031233243	You see?

mdp.39015059415839	And did he tell you, or send you to whom you were interested in seeing? ”He did, and I promptly looked the man up that he referred me to.
mdp.39015059415839	And how long was that? ”Well, he was here three months. ”'"And how long was that before the murder?"

mdp.39015059415839	And why did n't you go with him if he wanted you to?
mdp.39015059415839	And why? ” “ Because they get on to him and talk about him and they wo n't play with him, forcing him to keep moving. mdp.39015059415839 And you've never told me anything about it? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	And? ” “ After a pause he crossed to my car and spoke.

mdp.39015059415839	But why should both of you know Mr. Wyeth and neither of you know this Frank Knight?
mdp.39015059415839	But you were not on your way there to take care of any books this morning, were you, Bob?

mdp.39015059415839	Did you push her in? mdp.39015059415839 Did you say something, Bob?
mdp.39015059415839	Did you tear any of her clothing? mdp.39015059415839 Did you throw rocks at her while she was in the water, as she also testified? ” “ I did not."

mdp.39015059415839	How would you know that he is? ”"It was brought to my attention some time ago.
mdp.39015059415839	How'd she come to get mixed up with us, anyhow? ” Again Mrs. Austin glanced about her.
mdp.39015059415839	How'd you enjoy your trip to the Islands? ”"It was n't exactly an occasion for enjoyment."
mdp.39015059415839	How'd you like it? ”"I thought it was most interesting, too, ” said Walter.
mdp.39015059415839	How's yours?"
mdp.39015059415839	I asked you how you were doing? ” “ And I said that my business was rotten.
mdp.39015059415839	I assure you that I am not a flirt, a- nonentity or a play boy. ” “ Then what are you?"
mdp.39015059415839	I can appreciate how you feel, all right, but her case is an exception. ” “ What kind of an exception?
mdp.39015059415839	I do feel, how- ever, that I am acquainted with what did recently in part lead up to the practice. ” What source?"
mdp.39015059415839	I do n't think that you are free. ” “ What about yourself? ” she said, looking at him.
mdp.39015059415839	I hate that nigger- Negro, for it; but go on, Mr. LRaron, and tell me why he did it?"
mdp.39015059415839	I have for a long time been interested in chemical research. ” “ Chemical research?
mdp.39015059415839	I helped engineer something like it in Cincinnati a few years ago. ” “ How'd you come out? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	I jes'make out lak ah’m daid?"
mdp.39015059415839	I mean, in their lowdown business?"
mdp.39015059415839	I said,'What's the matter?'
mdp.39015059415839	I said,'Why did you marry THE STORY OF DOROTHY STANFIELD 305 them?'
mdp.39015059415839	I said:"What's wrong?'
mdp.39015059415839	I think Bob must know him, too. ” Turned to Bob now, he called louder:"Bob, you must know Sidney Wyeth, do n't you? ”"Surely I do.
mdp.39015059415839	I understand that the marriage was not a happy one. ” “ No?
mdp.39015059415839	I want to go with you and I'll be waiting. ” “ At what time?"
mdp.39015059415839	I was merely wondering THE STORY OF DOROTHY STANFIELD 299 if you could manage and advance to me, say, of about twenty- five dollars?
mdp.39015059415839	I was sort of talking to myself. ” “ What were you talking to yourself about?
mdp.39015059415839	I was sure that I heard you scream, when I paused to look around and up at the top of the stair?
mdp.39015059415839	I will tell you now, dear, what made me THE STORY OF DOROTHY STANFIELD 105 hesitate and wonder this morning. ”"Oh, you will, Walter?"
mdp.39015059415839	I wonder how the white people take to them? ” 74 THE STORY OF DOROTHY STANFIELD.
mdp.39015059415839	I wonder if they stand for anything, anyhow?"
mdp.39015059415839	I wonder if you can be trusted — very far?"
mdp.39015059415839	I'll give you the two hundred now, but you've got to promise to die the next time for nothing, is that agreeable? ” Sam said it was.
mdp.39015059415839	I'll take most of the responsibility. ”"What do you mean about you taking most of the responsibility?
mdp.39015059415839	I'm going to tell you all about it. ”"Then why do n't you get started? ” She looked at him and the expression on his face amused her.
mdp.39015059415839	I'm letting you off cheap. ” This seemed to anger Brown, and he paused and whirled around with: “ What do you call, cheap?
mdp.39015059415839	I'm not going, Doctor, because"“ Because?
mdp.39015059415839	I'm sorry. ”"But why not you? ” he cried, his peculiar eyes wide open now and gazing down into hers with a strange exhilaration.
mdp.39015059415839	I've been taking it on the chin ever since and have n't squawked, have I? ”"No, you have n't, Dorothy.
mdp.39015059415839	I've seen the policy... ” “ Yes?"
mdp.39015059415839	If they do they may hurt us in other ways. ” “ And you say that this Mrs. Wingate is nice? ” “ Oh, sweet."
mdp.39015059415839	If you do n't want a drink at the bar, what about a- half pint to take to your room?"
mdp.39015059415839	If you do n't want to say, then you can at least tell me this much. ” “ What much, Dorothy?".
mdp.39015059415839	Immediately he perked up and snapping his fingers, cried:"A Doctor?"
mdp.39015059415839	In New York?
mdp.39015059415839	In evening clothes as I asked you to wear?
mdp.39015059415839	In fact, I've become very fond of him. ” “ Then why is it that you do n't care any longer if I do tell him?
mdp.39015059415839	In just what form?"
mdp.39015059415839	In other words he did n't like to pay what any man's work was worth. ”"And this is why you account for nobody staying long on the job, eh?"
mdp.39015059415839	In short, sane? ” “ Now, now, Doctor,"protested Issh.
mdp.39015059415839	Inside he walked up to Brown with:"I've thought of a way to get rid of Sam. ”"Yeh? ” Junius Brown became uneasy.
mdp.39015059415839	Is I told you, they did n't know where I ras because I was hid. ”"How did the colored help reply?"
mdp.39015059415839	Is it possible that you were talking to someone else in the meanwhile?"
mdp.39015059415839	Is n't that a predicament for a man like me to be in? ” “ Why a predicament?
mdp.39015059415839	Is n't that a predicament for a man like me to be in? ” “ Why a predicament?
mdp.39015059415839	Is n't that enough?"
mdp.39015059415839	Is that all for the present? ”"That is all, thank you, ” replied Le Baron, and hung up.
mdp.39015059415839	Is that all right, dear? ” THE STORY OF DOROTHY STANFIELD 181"It would have been all right just after I met you.
mdp.39015059415839	Is that all right, dear? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	Is that it?".
mdp.39015059415839	Is that so? ”"She surely did.
mdp.39015059415839	Is that the power of love, dear?
mdp.39015059415839	Is that what has been happening to you while you've been away?
mdp.39015059415839	Is you sho'dat's what dey locked him up'bout? ” “ Ah wuz in Jedge Fuquay's co't when'e sentenced'i m."
mdp.39015059415839	It ca n't miss doing so. ” “ What can I do? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	It is what happened to me in the gas station this morning that I want to talk to you about. ” “ Why do you want to talk to me about her? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	It looks like a cold deck to me. ”"Oh, I'm not so sure about it. ” “ What do you mean? ” “ That I know Sam; I know Negroes.
mdp.39015059415839	It means a nice cool drive of about fifty miles over into Arkansas and a call on a very successful doctor of our group. ”"A doctor?"
mdp.39015059415839	It might turn out that Dorothy may meet and fall in love with a handsome man, or a plain man, or some other kind, who knows?
mdp.39015059415839	Just about how much is the casket costing? ”"Around five hundred. ”"It's always ‘ about'and'around and etc.
mdp.39015059415839	Just how have you figured it all out? ” “ Well, ” said the Doctor.
mdp.39015059415839	Just what did you mean, Issh?
mdp.39015059415839	Knight is never seen in Harlem. ” “ No?"
mdp.39015059415839	Knight is never seen in Harlem. ”"No?"
mdp.39015059415839	Le Baron does?
mdp.39015059415839	Le Baron re- membered meeting me and that he has said something — about me? ” “ Something? ” exclaimed Bob.
mdp.39015059415839	Le Baron re- membered meeting me and that he has said something — about me? ” “ Something? ” exclaimed Bob.
mdp.39015059415839	Le Baron re- membered meeting me and that he has said something — about me?"
mdp.39015059415839	Le Baron, and tell me why he did it? ”"This is my personal opinion of how it got started.
mdp.39015059415839	Le Baron, and tell me why he did it?"
mdp.39015059415839	Le Baron, would you?"
mdp.39015059415839	Le Baron?
mdp.39015059415839	Le Baron? ” He turned and met her eyes squarely, then smiling, patted her hand again and said: “ You."
mdp.39015059415839	Le Baron? ” Ransom asked, looking at Walter, who in turn looked at Helen.
mdp.39015059415839	Le Baron? ” Ransom asked, looking at Walter, who in turn looked at Helen.
mdp.39015059415839	Le Baron? ” and when she looked up at him and he met her eyes, there seemed to be a bit of fear and sorrow in her look.
mdp.39015059415839	Le Baron? ” she asked.
mdp.39015059415839	Make it plainer? ”"Well, starting out with pool.
mdp.39015059415839	May I drive out, say, this afternoon and take you to a show?
mdp.39015059415839	Mean- while, how does he spend his time?
mdp.39015059415839	Mean- while, how does he spend his time?
mdp.39015059415839	Meantime, how is it that while all the Negro men up there are grabbing white wives, some white men do n't take to themselves a Negro woman for a wife?
mdp.39015059415839	Meanwhile, are you very busy?"
mdp.39015059415839	Meanwhile, just where were you going, anyhow?"
mdp.39015059415839	Meanwhile, where are you staying? ” Sam answered with a shrug of his shoulders and a grin which was self- explanatory.
mdp.39015059415839	Meanwhile, whom do you have in mind? ”"Jeff Watkins, out in east Memphis for one.
mdp.39015059415839	Might arouse suspicion, understand?"
mdp.39015059415839	More, perhaps, than he was on the pictures?"
mdp.39015059415839	Mrs. Burton is due at church very shortly, so supposing you entertain Dorothy?
mdp.39015059415839	No one of them ever stayed very long. ”"Why? ” inquired Le Baron, pausing to look straight at him.
mdp.39015059415839	Not only tell him — but tell him everything and at the earliest possible opportunity! ”"Dorothy, Dorothy, what ever are you talking about?
mdp.39015059415839	Now after all expenses have been deducted, including yours which are liberal I know, how much do I come in for?
mdp.39015059415839	Now do you understand why I want you to hear the story? ”"Yes, dear, I do, and it will be as you wish it.
mdp.39015059415839	Now is n't that so, Bob?"
mdp.39015059415839	Now look at his picture again,"and Le Baron withdrew his hand and laid it over the scar, THE STORY OF DOROTHY STANFIELD 195 “ See the difference?"
mdp.39015059415839	Now may we go on from here?
mdp.39015059415839	Now what is it you want to tell me?".
mdp.39015059415839	Now what is there about me, really, to talk about, anyhow? ” There was an intermission at this point and the orchestra stop- ped playing.
mdp.39015059415839	Now what were you thinking about, anyhow? ” “ Of a way that you and I might make some extra money."
mdp.39015059415839	Now what? ” He finished and looked at her with a question in his eyes.
mdp.39015059415839	Now where did you say that he's being tried? ” and Walter reached for a pencil and pad.
mdp.39015059415839	Now will you try it, Sam- please? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	Now you were asking me?"
mdp.39015059415839	Now, will you, darling?"
mdp.39015059415839	Oh, Bob, must that thing haunt me, follow me like a gray ghost to — my grave? ”"But he ca n't go asking me about what happened to you.
mdp.39015059415839	One of them things, huh? ” “ That's what I've been told."
mdp.39015059415839	Perhaps you know Bob?
mdp.39015059415839	Pretty well fixed, was n't he? ”"Had good inshoance.
mdp.39015059415839	Professor? ” she inquired now as they circled around the floor.
mdp.39015059415839	Raising his head presently, he inquired:"Did Van Revel have a family, uncle? ” “ Sure did.
mdp.39015059415839	Ransom, this man that you are referring to, is he the one, in your opinion, that did the killing?"
mdp.39015059415839	Ransom? ” Bob asked at this point.
mdp.39015059415839	Say, men, what is you all talkin''bout, anyhow?"
mdp.39015059415839	She looked hard at Annie and went on: “ What ever made you think anything like that? ” “ Aw, I dunno, ” sighed Annie, sort of bewildered.
mdp.39015059415839	She regarded him curiously now, and went on: “ What do you mean?"
mdp.39015059415839	She said:"What do you want?'
mdp.39015059415839	She was enjoying talking to him, hearing him talk to her; but all she said to his last words was a simple:"No? ” “ I do not.
mdp.39015059415839	She's a white woman, is n't she? ” “ Of course, but Mrs. Wingate is a very rich woman, under- stand?"
mdp.39015059415839	She's a white woman, is n't she? ” “ Of course, but Mrs. Wingate is a very rich woman, under- stand?"
mdp.39015059415839	So I left him standing there in the gas station, looking after me sadly — just like he had been badly hurt- yet was he not?
mdp.39015059415839	So I wonder what they do for social intercourse?
mdp.39015059415839	So how could he, after he has heard the story, think less well of you? ” “ But I do n't want him to know it — that is, just now.
mdp.39015059415839	So what?"
mdp.39015059415839	So which one?
mdp.39015059415839	So why do you keep threatening to let me down?"
mdp.39015059415839	So why does the great American press condemn Mr. Micheaux's books just because he chooses to portray the facts to some degree as they exist?
mdp.39015059415839	So why does the great American press condemn Mr. Micheaux's books just because he chooses to portray the facts to some degree as they exist?
mdp.39015059415839	So why was it unprofitable for him to produce them?"
mdp.39015059415839	Start looking for your man?"
mdp.39015059415839	Still, we have n't kicked, have we?
mdp.39015059415839	Supposin'we git du truck and drive out thaiuh and see what's happened? ” “ Ah’m wid yuh.

mdp.39015059415839	Tell me more about it?"
mdp.39015059415839	That was not the name he was called when she introduced him to me. ”"No? ”"Oh, no.
mdp.39015059415839	That's you. ”"How much will my cut be?
mdp.39015059415839	The Com- missioner came forward with outstretched hand to greet Le Baron, with:"Where'n hell have you been for months, Le Baron?"
mdp.39015059415839	The Commissioner wants to see you. ”"You mean Walton? ”"Not La Guardia.
mdp.39015059415839	The one I admire most of all is old Doctor Carter's son. ”"Beryl, eh?
mdp.39015059415839	The one about the white woman who fell in love and got mixed up with a Negro, and in the end married him?"
mdp.39015059415839	Then from where had come that sound he heard?
mdp.39015059415839	Then he did own the building, eh?"
mdp.39015059415839	Then how would her story end?
mdp.39015059415839	Then raising her eyes, looked up at me and repeated:'Did n't you understand what I meant, Lonnie?
mdp.39015059415839	Then smiling, jokingly, he turned to Le Baron and said:"But you can shoot craps, Le Baron? ”"It's the simplest game in the world to learn.
mdp.39015059415839	Then somebody said:'Why do n't someone call the police?'
mdp.39015059415839	Then somebody said:'Why do n't someone call the police?'
mdp.39015059415839	Then there was nothing in his talking to them when I drove in that would in any way associate him in their connection?
mdp.39015059415839	Then what is he and who is he? ” She sighed — then recoiled violently as she thought about something else, which frightened her.
mdp.39015059415839	Then what possessed her to give up that- and marry a Negro? ”"She was a widow.
mdp.39015059415839	Then you think that he may still be in the United States?
mdp.39015059415839	There are 100,000, perhaps even more, who reside across the river in Brook- lyn alone. ” “ Really? ” she asked, innocently.
mdp.39015059415839	There is something infinite in your face. ” “ Infinite? ” “ More.
mdp.39015059415839	They did n't know what they were doing. ”"Were any of them indicted in connection with the failures? ” inquired Le Baron.
mdp.39015059415839	They got into the car and drove away. ”"Did she have on her mink coat? ”"No,"replied Ransom.
mdp.39015059415839	They pull at and paw over them and — even give them their little money, when they have any, so what can be expected? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	Think of something easier. ”"Then stay in there for half an hour. ” “ How'm ah goin'know when the ha'f houh is up?"

mdp.39015059415839	What does he want to see me about?"
mdp.39015059415839	What does this mean?
mdp.39015059415839	What does this mean?
mdp.39015059415839	What ever gave you such an idea, anyhow?"
mdp.39015059415839	What ever possessed you to call me at such a late hour? ” She was suddenly anxious, fearing some invisible something.
mdp.39015059415839	What for? ”"Something very important- most important."
mdp.39015059415839	What happened?"
mdp.39015059415839	What has that to do with this deal? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	What he then talked about was me. ” “ You? ” Bob repeated, pointing a finger and looking at her.
mdp.39015059415839	What influence on Zacarrio did that have? ”"Plenty!
mdp.39015059415839	What is on your mind? ” “ You, as usual, ” he said playfully, but meant it.
mdp.39015059415839	What is the joke, anyhow?"
mdp.39015059415839	What kind of a man are you, anyhow?"
mdp.39015059415839	What now? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	What shall I do? ”"I'll call our Doctor, right here in the building.
mdp.39015059415839	What the hell were we talking about, anyhow?"
mdp.39015059415839	What time do you want me to?"
mdp.39015059415839	What time is it anyhow? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	What time shall I tell him that you will be here? ”, said the secretary, and waited for his reply.
mdp.39015059415839	What was that? ”"That's what I do n't quite understand.
mdp.39015059415839	What was the matter? ” Connie shrugged her shoulders and her expression was odd.
mdp.39015059415839	What will I do when you- go away? ”"I do n't know, darling.
mdp.39015059415839	What will become of me with you showering so much affection on me?
mdp.39015059415839	What you think?"
mdp.39015059415839	What'll be my cut?
mdp.39015059415839	What's New York coming to, anyhow? ” “ That's what's going on."
mdp.39015059415839	What's got you looking that way, anyhow?"
mdp.39015059415839	What's the matter, Junius?
mdp.39015059415839	What's the matter?
mdp.39015059415839	What's up, anyhow? ” “ Oh, nothing in particular, ” she said with feigned carelessness.
mdp.39015059415839	What's your last name? ” “ Stanfield. ” “ O- o- h! ” he cried.
mdp.39015059415839	What?"
mdp.39015059415839	Whatever can you be thinking of? ” Le Baron smiled, and digressed to explain what he meant.
mdp.39015059415839	When I lifted the receiver to my ear, I got another surprise, for it was Bob Martin. ” “ Oh, Bob? ” he said, and waited.
mdp.39015059415839	When I see him, I'll explain why I am late. ” “ You will? ” she suggested, oddly.
mdp.39015059415839	Where did you find such a- specimen? ”, and turning to Issh, all but laughed out loud.
mdp.39015059415839	Where did you get the photographs any- how?
mdp.39015059415839	Where had the Negro hidden himself?
mdp.39015059415839	Where was Johnson, which was his real name, if you did n't happen to know, at that time?"
mdp.39015059415839	Who could be calling her at such a hour?
mdp.39015059415839	Who else can you consider? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	Who is the girl friend? ” Bob shook his head deprecatingly, whereupon Le Baron's smile grew bigger.
mdp.39015059415839	Who's been up to mischief now?"
mdp.39015059415839	Whom are you referring to, anyhow? ” tested Bob, looking as innocent as a babe.
mdp.39015059415839	Whom do you work for? ”"Myself, sweetheart.
mdp.39015059415839	Whom would I be thinking of? ”"Now, now, Dorothy,"he chided, kindly.
mdp.39015059415839	Whom you have never seen before? ”"I'm so sorry,"he said kindly.
mdp.39015059415839	Whut wuz Corn- bread's alibi; his'scuse? ”"Said he had a twitchin'in one ob his eyes. ” Again all laughed and struck each other.
mdp.39015059415839	Why about you?".
mdp.39015059415839	Why are n't you dressed for the party?
mdp.39015059415839	Why did n't you do so when I came in? ”"Because you — frightened me so by your- condition, ” she said, hesitatingly.
mdp.39015059415839	Why do his books sell so well?
mdp.39015059415839	Why do his books sell so well?
mdp.39015059415839	Why do n't you go down and meet him and — and bring him here and let us all drive out to Forest City? ”"Great! ” exclaimed Bob.
mdp.39015059415839	Why do n't you tell me now?"
mdp.39015059415839	Why do n't you tell me?
mdp.39015059415839	Why have you waited so long?"
mdp.39015059415839	Why not go on and tell me about this girl?
mdp.39015059415839	Why the delay, I'm certainly not the only detective in New York?
mdp.39015059415839	Why were they so strong for him?"
mdp.39015059415839	Why, Dorothy, what's the matter?
mdp.39015059415839	Why? ” “ Because I'd like for you to come down to the office."
mdp.39015059415839	Will you go, darling?"
mdp.39015059415839	Will you have dinner with me, also, darling?"
mdp.39015059415839	Will you please try to explain to me when and why you have reached such an- inglorious decision?"
mdp.39015059415839	Will you try to, Walter? ” “ I shall do even more than that, darling.
mdp.39015059415839	Will you wish to, honey?".
mdp.39015059415839	Women whom you do n't know?
mdp.39015059415839	Wonduh wha''es been? ”"In jail, ” the other answered, without a smile.
mdp.39015059415839	Would he ever see her again?
mdp.39015059415839	Would n't it be a glorious thing if one had to go insane, to do so in the arms of one you love as much as I do you?"
mdp.39015059415839	Yesterday, it was what I thought I did n't want you to do, but this morning, ” “-this morning?
mdp.39015059415839	You are a detective?"
mdp.39015059415839	You believe that I will, do n't you dear? ”,"I would not offer to tell you if I did not trust you — and, im- plicitly, dear.
mdp.39015059415839	You could n't, perhaps, permit me to sign for one of those you say you've planned for next week?"
mdp.39015059415839	You did want to see and talk with me about something, did you not? ” “ Why, of course, Bob.
mdp.39015059415839	You know that by now, do n't you, dear? ” “ Yes, Walter, and I ca n't find words to explain how happy it has made me.
mdp.39015059415839	You know that you're a sucker for good- looking boys and your crying proves it?"
mdp.39015059415839	You know what that means?".
mdp.39015059415839	You mean that he is- dead? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	You might have avoided this had you not been so'sassy,'as he put it. ” “ What do you mean, Henry, dear?"
mdp.39015059415839	You must be married, of course?"
mdp.39015059415839	You must have been thinking of something that happened a long time ago; or was it about somebody, perhaps?
mdp.39015059415839	You say that the funeral is- Sunday? ” “ Sunday, two p. m. ”"Very well then.
mdp.39015059415839	You say that you are here in search of a murderer? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	You say that you trailed the murderer into Memphis?
mdp.39015059415839	You say, however, that he is not any of those things I just suggested? ”"By no means, no, Dorothy.
mdp.39015059415839	You under- stand that, do n't you, dear? ” “ Of course, but you women, you women!
mdp.39015059415839	You're not cheating on the regular one?"
mdp.39015059415839	You're not plan- ning to do so, too, are you?
mdp.39015059415839	anyhow?
mdp.39015059415839	groes?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ A licensed physician signs a death certificate...""And?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ About him?
mdp.39015059415839	“ About him? ” Bob exclaimed, excitedly.
mdp.39015059415839	“ About something?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ After you returned and saw Mrs. Stribling's car in the garage, what did you do? ” A.
mdp.39015059415839	“ After you saw Bob Saturday, what did you do then?
mdp.39015059415839	“ Ah agrees, Doctor Stanfield. ” Stanfield turned to Brown and said:"You're a witness to his promise, Brown? ” Brown nodded in the affirmative.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Ah, I understand now! ” cried Bob, shaking his head, then looking across at Le Baron, cried: “ Understand what he means, Walter?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ And his wife. ” “ What about? ” “ Dear Bob, ” she said, turning to him,"how would I know?
mdp.39015059415839	“ And his wife. ” “ What about? ” “ Dear Bob, ” she said, turning to him,"how would I know?
mdp.39015059415839	“ And not Nathan's? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	“ And now, precious, ” she said, relaxing into a moment of soberness,"Just how long do you plan to be in Memphis, anyhow?
mdp.39015059415839	“ And several others around here. ” “ The dirty, lying little sonofabitch! ” “ Why are you so bitter regarding Zacarrio?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ And she charges him with raping her?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ And she was n't no — whore when he married her? ” “ Gracious, no, Annie! ” exclaimed Mrs. Austin, shocked.
mdp.39015059415839	“ And that was one of his weaknesses?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ And the other bank's personnel?
mdp.39015059415839	“ And why not? ” Bob wanted to know, turning upon him.
mdp.39015059415839	“ And why? ” he said and turned to her in surprise.
mdp.39015059415839	“ And you have trailed him right up to Memphis??
mdp.39015059415839	“ And you have trailed him right up to Memphis??
mdp.39015059415839	“ And you love me, too, do n't you Dorothy? ” She fell to weeping again but nodded her head in assent as she did so.
mdp.39015059415839	“ And you said that I seemed — ill? ” “ You most assuredly did. ”"I'm surprised.
mdp.39015059415839	“ And you saw him over there only a few hours before Van Revel drove by and picked her up?
mdp.39015059415839	“ Are you in the habit of becoming interested in — strange women?
mdp.39015059415839	“ Are you sure that you would, dear?
mdp.39015059415839	“ Are you well, Connie? ” “ Quite well, Walter.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Because the most up there — are black? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Before we started to Forest City?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ But I'd be willing to lay a bet that I am right, anyhow. ” “ What? ” She asked, breaking off abruptly in her pretended laughter.
mdp.39015059415839	“ But is he a- normal man, meaning, if you do n't catch my drift, rational?
mdp.39015059415839	“ But she did n't, did she? ” Le Baron looked at her and smiled.
mdp.39015059415839	“ But should n't I tell you what happened after Mr. Elliott left? ” Helen said, looking from first one to the other.
mdp.39015059415839	“ But should n't I tell you what happened after Mr. Elliott left? ” Helen said, looking from first one to the other.
mdp.39015059415839	“ But that does not alter what I see. ” Why was he so persistent?
mdp.39015059415839	“ But why did you do it? ” she cried.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Ca n't you guess? ” she asked, her eyes a bit coquettish.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Can you see the river?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ Did he hurt himself badly? ” “ I do n't know, Arthur.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Did you choke her in the hall when she came out, as she testified that you did? ” A.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Did you say something, Bob?
mdp.39015059415839	“ Do you have more than one? ” “ Two, ” she said.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Do you — like it? ”"Not at all, no!
mdp.39015059415839	“ Do you — think we should- leave him there, Doctor? ”"Sure! ” said the Doctor, firmly, a frown on his face.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Does he happen, as far as you might know, to have a- sister?
mdp.39015059415839	“ Does you reckon dat he's plan- ing tu git rid ob Sam by not diggin''i m up?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ Dorothy?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ For the way you chose to misunderstand me. ” “ What do you expect? ” “ Nothing, I guess.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Gambling, eh?
mdp.39015059415839	“ Get in a coffin an'I ai n't daid? ” Sam cried, again springing to his feet excitedly.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Had she been going with some Negro on the side?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ Had there been any other superintendants on the job since you started working here? ”"Perhaps a dozen during the past two years.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Hello? ” “ Hello,"somebody said, a bit hesitantly, but not so hesitantly that she failed to recognize the voice.
mdp.39015059415839	“ How come? ” “ He jes'ain'come home, dats all. ” “ Is dat so? ” After a thought, “'Scuse me.
mdp.39015059415839	“ How come? ” “ He jes'ain'come home, dats all. ” “ Is dat so? ” After a thought, “'Scuse me.
mdp.39015059415839	“ How do you do? ”"I'm fine, Walter.
mdp.39015059415839	“ How much do you love me, Walter? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	“ How'd he get into such a thing?
mdp.39015059415839	“ How'd he get into such a thing?
mdp.39015059415839	“ How'd you know? ” they inquired simul- taneously.
mdp.39015059415839	“ How? ”"He was there for service, on his way, perhaps, to meet you at the New Daisy."
mdp.39015059415839	“ I ca n't even hear myself now. ” Bob leaned over and into Dorothy's ear: “ You're wondering if he's married? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	“ I have a contact man here who teaches in the colored high school. ” “ Oh, you have? ”"I have, Miss Stanfield.
mdp.39015059415839	“ I still do n't understand what you mean? ”"Because Doctor Thurston has since died. ” “ Died?
mdp.39015059415839	“ I still do n't understand what you mean? ”"Because Doctor Thurston has since died. ” “ Died?
mdp.39015059415839	“ I was saying that he said my face was familiar. ”"Why did he say that?
mdp.39015059415839	“ I wonder if he knows it, also? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	“ I've always longed to travel- but then I suppose most everyone would like to. ” “ Have you been out of Memphis often? ” he asked her now.
mdp.39015059415839	“ In a gas station? ” echoed Bob, lying nobly.
mdp.39015059415839	“ In jail? ” asked the first speaker.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Is n't it beautiful?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ Is n't this great fun? ” he cried, turning to her.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Is that so? ” Le Baron said, and was immediately all interest.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Is that so? ” “ Yes, ” said Bob.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Is that you? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Is that you?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ It did n't happen to be about me?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ It happened, in fact, in a gas station. ”"In a gas station?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ Just about when did he start going with this Lizzie, as they called her? ” Bob asked.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Just what are his plans to do these things, Issh? ” inquired the Doctor a bit coldly.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Just what do you mean, anyhow?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ Me?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ Must you insist?
mdp.39015059415839	“ My action?
mdp.39015059415839	“ My wife notices it and keeps pestering me with'What's the matter, Junius?
mdp.39015059415839	“ Not afraid of me like you were last night? ” “ Oh, darling, no, ” she cried as the blood flushed to her cheeks.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Now what's this? ” he cried, and lifted the paper closer to his eyes and studied it carefully.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Oh, we? ” “ Well, ” replied Grimes in reply to the'we'as emphasized by the Doctor, “ It's our idea.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Only does you all have to — actually bury me? ” “ That will be necessary now and then, Sam; but not often.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Per- haps he's a fortune teller?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ Protection? ”"Protection from dozens of girls, hustling all over Harlem- by his permission."
mdp.39015059415839	“ Really? ” he asked with a pleasant smile, as if at having her recall their meeting.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Really? ” “ Yes, really!
mdp.39015059415839	“ Really?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ Really?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ Single, then?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ So Walton wants to see me, eh? ” THE STORY OF DOROTHY STANFIELD 137 “ Nobody else.
mdp.39015059415839	“ So somebody killed your beautiful neighbor, Ransom?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ So wo n't all of you please come into the dining room?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ So you waited? ” A.

mdp.39015059415839	“ So you're taking me to meet a lady?
mdp.39015059415839	“ Something? ” exclaimed Bob.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Sorry for what? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Still a trifle suspicious? ”"Perhaps. ” “ You will let me tell you more? ” “ I'll let you tell me everything,"he said.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Still a trifle suspicious? ”"Perhaps. ” “ You will let me tell you more? ” “ I'll let you tell me everything,"he said.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Suppose we let him sleep awhile longer? ” “ Okay by us, ” replied Grimes, as if speaking for both.
mdp.39015059415839	“ That is my card, and I'm from New York. ”"Oh, New York?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ That is why he is so successful — and rich! ”"Rich?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ The South put the quietus on any more of the kind. ”"What do you mean? ”.
mdp.39015059415839	“ The guy's ace- in- the- hole is his ability to master dice. ” “ Master dice?
mdp.39015059415839	“ The reason I'm mentioning this, ” Williams went on thought- fully,"is so that you can spot him if and when you find him. ” “ Well?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ Then what did cause you to change your mind? ” he wanted to know.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Then what did he talk about? ” “ Take it easy, Bob, and ask me some more questions.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Then what did you do? ” A.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Then what did you say?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ Then what do you want to know?"

mdp.39015059415839	“ What is your father's name?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ What kind of a counterplot? ” inquired Le Baron, listening to every word Ransom spoke, carefully, and unnoticed by Ransom.
mdp.39015059415839	“ What kind of a mark? ”"Somewhere during his perhaps hectic career, a man or a woman of his race, no doubt, took a swipe at him with a razor.
mdp.39015059415839	“ What something in my face? ” she said and forced an unen- thusiastic smile.
mdp.39015059415839	“ What the hell? ” Van Revel finally managed to say, then looked past Elliott to where Lizzie was rising from the floor.

mdp.39015059415839	“ What's the matter, kid? ” he said, carelessly.
mdp.39015059415839	“ What's the matter?
mdp.39015059415839	“ What's up?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ What? ” they cried.

mdp.39015059415839	“ Where were you raised, Professor Stanfield? ” Stanfield shrugged his shoulders without much show of pride.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Who's there? ” the Doctor called presently.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Whom did he marry?

mdp.39015059415839	“ Yes — and, no. ” “ What do you mean by that?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ Yes, I remember full well, Bob, but that was then. ”"Then?
mdp.39015059415839	“ Yes, but what good does it do when I'm worried half the time and scared stiff the rest?
mdp.39015059415839	“ Yes? ” he asked, turning to her anxiously.
mdp.39015059415839	“ Yes? ” “ See the buildings, a group of buildings, and the large gate opening this side of them? ” “ Surely. ” “ Well, turn in there."

mdp.39015059415839	“ You did laugh, did n't you, Dorothy? ” “ I giggled, Walter, like a stupid idiot; but I was laughing at myself.
mdp.39015059415839	“ You do like farming, do n't you, Jennifer?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ You do n't care to- tell me? ” Glancing up at him, she presently relaxed and shrugged her shoulders.
mdp.39015059415839	“ You had n't any suspicion that it contained Zacarrio's body? ” “ Oh, none whatever.
mdp.39015059415839	“ You home so soon?
mdp.39015059415839	“ You mean, about Walter Le Baron? ” He then, as if to be sure, started to describe him.
mdp.39015059415839	“ You mean, they went down before the depression?"
mdp.39015059415839	“ You think so? ” from Bob.
mdp.39015059415839	“ You think so? ” from Bob.

mdp.39015059415839	“ You — won't- tell him, Bob, maybe? ” He did not answer then.

uc1.b3711121	- “ Did you get the letter? ” inquired Marie.
uc1.b3711121	- “ Do I have to tell you again, after all the many times I've told you before, that I am not in love with you or any other woman?
uc1.b3711121	- “ From Wyeth! ” she exclaimed “ What do you mean, from Wyeth? ” a “ Just what I say.
uc1.b3711121	- “ Have what?
uc1.b3711121	- “ How come?
uc1.b3711121	- “ No, Watson? ” “ Naw, man.
uc1.b3711121	- “ Should n't that be enough to convince you of the logic of mak- ing such a picture, Wyeth? ” said Schultz, leaning forward.
uc1.b3711121	- “ Then what happened? ” She asked.
uc1.b3711121	- “ What's it all about? ” cried Mrs.
uc1.b3711121	- “ Who ’s been fooling you? ” He asked rather bluntly.
uc1.b3711121	- “ Why? ” she exclaimed.
uc1.b3711121	- “ You went to him and told him that you loved him, did n't you, Edrina, which meant that you did n't love me, now is n't that so?
uc1.b3711121	. ” said Wyeth, “ Everything, Mr. Wyeth. ” “ And are satisfied? ” THE CASE OF MRS. WINGATE 413 “ I ’m satisfied.
uc1.b3711121	232 THE CASE OF MRS. WINGATE “ How did you know that I was in it? ” “ I saw it, ” he replied calmly.

uc1.b3711121	A Doctor of Philosophy. ” “ And you are a Doctor of Philosophy?
uc1.b3711121	A colored girl, highly educated and intelligent, critical, and with a German accent?
uc1.b3711121	A little at least? ” He looked down at her.
uc1.b3711121	A nice girl like you, riding all over the country with a- man? ” “ I want to go.
uc1.b3711121	A white woman, and a Southerner, friendly with a- colored man? ” Heinrich shrugged his shoulders and smiled.
uc1.b3711121	A white woman, you say? ”- “ A very pretty white woman, rich, dignified and refined. ” “ Indeed.
uc1.b3711121	According to the story, she seemed like a good girl? ” “ She was. ” “ Is that so? ” exclaimed Bertha again, all interest.
uc1.b3711121	According to the story, she seemed like a good girl? ” “ She was. ” “ Is that so? ” exclaimed Bertha again, all interest.
uc1.b3711121	All he did was to turn to her slightly and inquire: “ Who said I did n't like shows?
uc1.b3711121	All the advances?
uc1.b3711121	All the people have n't filthy minds like you imply, so what if he does have the chorus girls display their bodies?
uc1.b3711121	Always, ” Bertha complained, “ he is out — gone before I reach the office, so what?
uc1.b3711121	And the girl he wrote at such length about? ” “ That was his wife. ”- “ Oh, my l’exclaimed Bertha, her eyes opening wide.
uc1.b3711121	Anyway, answering your first question, ‘ what do I think of the Jews'?
uc1.b3711121	Are n't they still making pictures? ” 90 THE CASE OF MRS. WINGATE “ Hell, naw! ” exclaimed Wyeth.
uc1.b3711121	Are n't you going to report them to the FBI?"
uc1.b3711121	Are there any instructions you wish to give us? ” “ Yes, ” she said, faintly.
uc1.b3711121	Are there any of them being shown in New York now?
uc1.b3711121	Are you out of the picture business altogether?
uc1.b3711121	Are you sure it was not to see Thompson?
uc1.b3711121	Are you sure that you would like to help him that way? ” “ I tell you, darling Marie, I would like to help him in any way.
uc1.b3711121	Are you sure you'd be willing to put up with all that? ” “ It is exactly what I would like to do.
uc1.b3711121	Are you — falling for Mr. Wyeth? ” He looked at her quickly, curiously.
uc1.b3711121	As I see it, he's going to have an easy time of it when the time does come. ” “ Why so? ”- “ Because nobody will be watching him.
uc1.b3711121	At least I have n't seen any? ” “ No, I have n't. ” “ Why? ” “ Oh, dear, that's a long story — too long for us to go into now.
uc1.b3711121	At least I have n't seen any? ” “ No, I have n't. ” “ Why? ” “ Oh, dear, that's a long story — too long for us to go into now.
uc1.b3711121	At the first opportunity. ” “ Meanwhile, does she seem to — like Mr. Wyeth? ” “ I think so. ” “ You think so.
uc1.b3711121	At the rate they are being sunk, how in hell are they ever going to catch up?
uc1.b3711121	Be as nice to him as I can be? ” “ Sounds a bit suspicious to me, ” he muttered, not entirely satis- fied.
uc1.b3711121	Because — ” “ — what? ” “ Be — because he thought she was a-white girl. ” “ Oh, ” he exclaimed, and smiled.
uc1.b3711121	Being proud of your country, I presume that you, as most Germans, are given to reading a great deal, Herr Schultz? ” queried the Baron.
uc1.b3711121	Better be careful, Kermit, that gal's dynamite. ” “ What do you mean, dynamite? ’ “ She's as hot as hell.
uc1.b3711121	But I want to go with Mr. Wyeth on this trip. ” “ Are you losing your mind?
uc1.b3711121	But I've just got to get this off my chest. ” “ What is it that you want to ask, Mrs. Wingate? ” said Wyeth, calmly, evenly.
uc1.b3711121	But has she said anything about feeling him out? ” said Kermit.
uc1.b3711121	But in the past, as I understand it, it rather strained you to- finance your pictures, did it not? ” “ Strained me?
uc1.b3711121	But in the past, as I understand it, it rather strained you to- finance your pictures, did it not? ” “ Strained me?
uc1.b3711121	But since you brought it up, just what happened, anyhow? ” “ The police had to come and escort him away.
uc1.b3711121	But supposing the show began to totter, to waver and threaten to fail?
uc1.b3711121	But there is a doctor who will come to see you. ” “ What doctor, dear?
uc1.b3711121	But what if I did?
uc1.b3711121	But where, and about what? ” “ Your book. ” “ My book? ” “ Your book. ” “ Which one? ” “ Which one P ” she asked.
uc1.b3711121	But where, and about what? ” “ Your book. ” “ My book? ” “ Your book. ” “ Which one? ” “ Which one P ” she asked.

uc1.b3711121	But why?
uc1.b3711121	Ca n't you — get the money? ” She was getting close to what she wanted to talk about now.
uc1.b3711121	Can a girl promise more? ” “ No, Edrina, she can not, ” he said and sighed, deeply, like he was getting tired.
uc1.b3711121	Could n't that be arranged? ” “ But you are already employed, you already have a job, ” Bertha shrugged her shoulders.
uc1.b3711121	Could you tell me, perhaps, why? ” Marie shrugged her shoulders.
uc1.b3711121	Decidedly academic. ” “ Not material, industrial, commercial or economic? ” “ No, it was not, ” he said.
uc1.b3711121	Did he like it?
uc1.b3711121	Did he say? ” “ I do n't think anybody but Mr. Wyeth and his secretary.
uc1.b3711121	Did the Jew go from the shores of persecuted Europe, as he claims, and make conquest of anything?
uc1.b3711121	Did you ever meet her? ” “ Yes, I met her.
uc1.b3711121	Do I remember it?
uc1.b3711121	Do n't know just why? ” “ And it's been a long time since I ’ve seen you, too, Mr. Wyeth. ” He then introduced Schultz.
uc1.b3711121	Do n't you think it's nice and roomy?
uc1.b3711121	Do n't you think she is beautiful? ” “ Well, ” said Kermit, after a moments thought, “ come to picture her, I suppose so. ” “ She is.
uc1.b3711121	Do n't you think that is very reasonable? ” “ Yes, fair enough. ” “ Then supposing you take it under advisement.
uc1.b3711121	Do n't you understand?
uc1.b3711121	Do they know many people? ” Kermit was thoughtful for a moment, shook his head.
uc1.b3711121	Do we?
uc1.b3711121	Do you believe that? ” said Schultz.
uc1.b3711121	Do you know, Kermit? ” He was silent.
uc1.b3711121	Do you like it? ” tº He shrugged his shoulders carelessly.
uc1.b3711121	Do you mind telling us something about yourself?
uc1.b3711121	Do you think she would really like to go? ” He asked, a bit anxiously Marie laughed, kept on laughing.
uc1.b3711121	Does he hate Jews? ” “ I have n’t taken the matter up with Kermit, but I will.
uc1.b3711121	Does that suit you? ” “ Yes, maam. ” He turned now and placed a hand on the knob.
uc1.b3711121	Early then? ” “ Sure.
uc1.b3711121	Early, would you say? ” “ I ’d say about two years younger.
uc1.b3711121	Early, “ That — that they will — publish our pictures in — the papers? ” “ Every paper from here to San Francisco, Mrs.
uc1.b3711121	Early? ” “ She's his girl friend. ”- “ Oh, his girl friend.
uc1.b3711121	Ever been around them much? ” Bertha shook her head in the negative.
uc1.b3711121	Ever been to Augusta 2"“ On the Chattahoochee?
uc1.b3711121	Exactly, then, what did she want? ”~ THE CASE OF MIRS.
uc1.b3711121	For instance, ” “ What? ” “ Have you noticed that a very large number of the screen actors lately are English? ” said he.
uc1.b3711121	For instance, ” “ What? ” “ Have you noticed that a very large number of the screen actors lately are English? ” said he.
uc1.b3711121	For what? ” He smiled down into her eyes.
uc1.b3711121	For — me? ” He turned to look at her, not making reply at once for no reason that he could understand.
uc1.b3711121	From Atlanta. ” “ Is n't that a bit — unusual?
uc1.b3711121	From a shoe shine boy to a- what? ” “ Not so fast, Baron Otto, ” laughed Schultz.
uc1.b3711121	Furthermore, instead of being in his way, I could — help him. ” “ Help him? ” cried Marie.
uc1.b3711121	Get it off your chest and your mind. ” “ How do you feel about the Jewish situation, the Jews themselves, I mean? ” inquired Early.
uc1.b3711121	Had you con- sidered where? ” “ No, dear, because I was planning to call it finis when I get my master.
uc1.b3711121	Has n't anybody ever told you that you have before? ” He was forced to smile again, but said nothing.
uc1.b3711121	Has she tiied to do anything? ” THE CASE OF MRS. WINGATE 373 “ Yes.

uc1.b3711121	Have n't you ever did that? ” “ Of course I have, silly.
uc1.b3711121	He ca n't help his condition — ” “ And since matters are going along as well as they are, why upset them? ” said he.
uc1.b3711121	He developed it into a nice business, and took Thompson along to assist him. ” “ Assist him, eh? ” said Bertha.
uc1.b3711121	He followed her “ I ’ll take it up with them today. ” “ Who have they invited to dinner, other than us?
uc1.b3711121	He has n’t been inclined to trust me. ” “ Why? ” he said, looking straight at her.
uc1.b3711121	He is n't a man that runs around or keeps women like most show men. ” “ No? ” “ Oh, no.
uc1.b3711121	He knew that Marie was Wyeth's stenographer, but who was the other girl?
uc1.b3711121	He looked hard at her, and managed to say: “ Why, Miss Florence — what — do you mean? ” Again she re- laxed.
uc1.b3711121	He seems to be a sort of pacifist in spirit, does n't hate anybody. ” “ Well, what are you going to do about it?
uc1.b3711121	He shook his head dumbly but managed to smile, “ I do n't know. ” “ You do n't know?
uc1.b3711121	He turned and looked at her a moment be- fore answering “ It's closing. ” “ Closing? ” she echoed, startled- like.
uc1.b3711121	He was mixed up with them while I was writing my book in Chicago, two years ago. ” “ And you knew? ” “ Of course I did, Marie.
uc1.b3711121	He's interesting. ” “ Is he — good looking? ” “ Plain, ” said Kermit.
uc1.b3711121	He's very plain and unassuming. ” “ Is he? ” “ Yes, ” replied Marie.
uc1.b3711121	Heinrich will be able to work without being suspected or molested. ” “ Just what do you think he's likely to do, as a starter, for in- stance?
uc1.b3711121	His hotel. ” “ What time, I mean, at what hour? ” “ Nine o'clock.
uc1.b3711121	His office is down on Railroad Avenue. ” “ A nigger Doctor?
uc1.b3711121	How are you anyhow? ” “ Oh just fine, Miss Florence, just fine. ” “ You look it.
uc1.b3711121	How are you getting along in school? ” “ I expect to graduate six months ahead of schedule. ” “ Wonderful, ” she cried and beamed.
uc1.b3711121	How are you, dear? ” After writing her such a letter, now he was talking so nicely.
uc1.b3711121	How did it all start, and where? ” “ Schultz and I talked about it the day we met downtown and he told me that her husband had been killed.
uc1.b3711121	How do the colored people feel about the way they're treated here in New York? ” asked Schiller.
uc1.b3711121	How do they seem to be getting along? ” said Bertha.
uc1.b3711121	How does he feel?
uc1.b3711121	How far did Mr. Wyeth go in school? ” said Bertha.
uc1.b3711121	How is Mr. Wingate? ” “ Fine.
uc1.b3711121	How much? ”- “ I do n't know, Heinrich. ” He smiled and shrugged his shoulders.
uc1.b3711121	How'd you like it? ” He shrugged his shoulders, and they caught his complete reaction.

uc1.b3711121	Sorry I missed them in Wakefield and Atlanta. ” “ They were n't shown where you go. ”- “ How is that? ” She looked at him quickly.
uc1.b3711121	Speak up, dear, get it off your chest. ” “ How can I reason with you when you're so prejudiced against show people? ” she argued.

uc1.b3711121	The girl said that she thought Mantan was teaching Edrina to shake. ” “ Shake? ” cried Bertha.
uc1.b3711121	The money? ” His smile and enthusiasm was replaced quickly by an impatient frown.

uc1.b3711121	Then you come of rich folks? ” “ No, Mr. Wyeth, ” said Mrs. Wingate.
uc1.b3711121	Then “ Maybe — what? ”-- “ Howard has something to say about it.
uc1.b3711121	There must be a mistake, unless it was somebody trying to get into the movies? ”- “ No, ” said Marie, with a twinkle, but quite firmly.

uc1.b3711121	Very much? ” “ She seems to a great deal.
uc1.b3711121	WINGATE 261 like — that? ” Bertha's expression indicated how she viewed it.
uc1.b3711121	WINGATE “ How can you explain such a- a peculiar phenomenon? ” Bertha queried, her brow wrinkled.

uc1.b3711121	Was it because she was overly anxious?
uc1.b3711121	Was it because women of their own race did not quite come up to their ideas, socially and otherwise?

uc1.b3711121	Where, dear? ” “ In Milwaukee. ” “ Milwaukee?
uc1.b3711121	Where, may I ask? ” “ Of course.
uc1.b3711121	Where? ” “ At Hans Schiller's office, to meet Doctor Von Barwig. ” “ More Germans.
uc1.b3711121	Where? ” “ Heidelberg. ” “ Oh, ” cried the Baron.
uc1.b3711121	Where? ” “ The same place.
uc1.b3711121	Who is he? ” “ He ’s the colored Doctor.
uc1.b3711121	Who is this girl, and what's it all about anyhow? ” “ You ’ll soon find out, ” she said, and smiling, plunged into her work.
uc1.b3711121	Who runs the business? ” “ Belongs to a fellow by the name of Wyeth. ” “ Wyeth? ” the Herr Doctor repeated, thoughfully.
uc1.b3711121	Who runs the business? ” “ Belongs to a fellow by the name of Wyeth. ” “ Wyeth? ” the Herr Doctor repeated, thoughfully.
uc1.b3711121	Who wrote the story?
uc1.b3711121	Who? ” “ She's the gal who used to wait table at the Y.
uc1.b3711121	Who? ” “ Sidney Wyeth, ” he said calmly, but watched her carefully as he said it.
uc1.b3711121	Why are you all of a sudden, so strange, so excited? ” Bertha looked at her for a moment.
uc1.b3711121	Why are you so hard to please? ” “ There's nothing to please involved, ” he answered, matter- of- factly.
uc1.b3711121	Why did you want to embarrass your sister like that? ” Alice and Carrie turned back to their work now and were silent.
uc1.b3711121	Why do n't you be nice to me? ” “ I have no right to.
uc1.b3711121	Why do we hate each other so? ”, “ The most unfortunate part about it is, that so few seem to be.
uc1.b3711121	Why do you ask such a question? ” For answer, he squeezed her.
uc1.b3711121	Why do you pause and hesitate?
uc1.b3711121	Why is that?
uc1.b3711121	Why not at the same time and as well, about the Italian, the Greek, the Chinaman — about anybody?
uc1.b3711121	Why not drive me out to the house where we can talk the matter over in detail?
uc1.b3711121	Why not live it, feel it, say it? ” Pausing, she looked up into his face expectantly.
uc1.b3711121	Why not? ” “ Oh, for one reason and another, ” he said, with a bit of a sigh and a shrug of his shoulders.
uc1.b3711121	Why should he lose any time or thought being a friend of ours?
uc1.b3711121	Why should you think about quitting or even retiring? ” Again Wyeth sighed.
uc1.b3711121	Why struggle against fate as you are; you've fought against it all along, and why?
uc1.b3711121	Why was Mrs. Wingate doing all this for him?
uc1.b3711121	Why was our Ambassador virtually sent home and relations between our two countries practically broken off long before all this started? ” he asked.
uc1.b3711121	Why wo n't he? ” Kermit shrugged his shoulders.
uc1.b3711121	Why, all this?
uc1.b3711121	Why?
uc1.b3711121	Why?
uc1.b3711121	Why? ” “ Well, regarding the statement about saying that Jews had forced me to suspend, I did n't mean it literally.
uc1.b3711121	Why? ”- “ Well, she said that she did n't know if it would be proper to do so.
uc1.b3711121	Will I ever meet him P Ever? ” Marie sighed and shook her head.
uc1.b3711121	Will that little darkey you're married to out in Louisville give it to you? ” “ Oh, yes, ” she said, reassuringly.
uc1.b3711121	Will try to answer anything you ask. ” “ Why do n't you put your book on sale at the bookshops?
uc1.b3711121	Will you come in and scrub my back? ” “ Like I always do? ” “ Like you always do.
uc1.b3711121	Will you come in and scrub my back? ” “ Like I always do? ” “ Like you always do.
uc1.b3711121	Wingate? ” he murmured, thoughtfully.
uc1.b3711121	With her complete educa- tion, and being so close to me, she can help put it into the shape I want it, understand? ”- “ Of course.
uc1.b3711121	Wo n't you finish it, please? ”- Again he shrugged his shoulders and glanced at his manuscript.
uc1.b3711121	Would you be agreeable to- seeing me, and hearing what I have to say? ” “ Why, of course I would.
uc1.b3711121	Would you mind explaining? ” He looked at her, then he thought for a moment and looked at her again.
uc1.b3711121	Would you want that done? ” “ Oh, no, ” she cried, hastily.
uc1.b3711121	Would you — lke a copy?"
uc1.b3711121	Wyeth is a lovely man. ” “ What is this, Sis?
uc1.b3711121	Wyeth is not the kind of a man that a show girl would be falling overly much in love with. ” “ What do you mean? ” inquired Bertha.
uc1.b3711121	Wyeth, perhaps, has money?
uc1.b3711121	Yet what can I do?
uc1.b3711121	You and — me? ” “ Plenty, Edrina.
uc1.b3711121	You hate Jews, do n't you? ” “ No, ” he said.
uc1.b3711121	You know my mother, Mrs. Adair? ” “ Yes, Mrs.
uc1.b3711121	You know what I saw. ” “ Yeah? ”- “ Yeh.
uc1.b3711121	You say'was'? ” “ Was, because — he is dead.
uc1.b3711121	You sell it by the pound, do n't you?'
uc1.b3711121	You should have. ” “ Why should I? ” she wanted to know.
uc1.b3711121	You would n't want to do that; no- body ever wants to help do that — and it is so simple, so easy. ” “ Why would n't I?
uc1.b3711121	You wrote me that you bought a swell dress for your party with money he sent you?
uc1.b3711121	You're the type of girl I'd like to see Mr. Wyeth fall in love with. ” “ Me? ” exclaimed Bertha, pointing to herself, and laughing.
uc1.b3711121	You've never had that kind of money, so what? ” “ But I have never made a hate picture. ” “ But you do hate Jews, do n't you?
uc1.b3711121	You've never had that kind of money, so what? ” “ But I have never made a hate picture. ” “ But you do hate Jews, do n't you?
uc1.b3711121	You've put it on me, so I'll tell her. ” “ What could it mean? ” she asked herself, now very anxious.
uc1.b3711121	You've said you'd be glad to have real money to make some pictures with once?
uc1.b3711121	r “ A colored girl? ”- “ She would n't mean that much to us. ” “ Oh, of course.
uc1.b3711121	w “ Did n't you overhear us talking? ” “ Of course I overheard you, in a general way, ” explained Marie.
uc1.b3711121	woman, from down South? ” Wyeth smiled.
uc1.b3711121	~ But she was in New York, deep in the heart of Harlem, where she did n't have to see them, hear them — but what about her poor, help- less mother?
uc1.b3711121	º THE CASE OF MRs. WINGATE 337 “ Why are you laughing? ” he asked.
uc1.b3711121	‘ Come on,'she calls, “ do you want it or not? ” At 44 cents a pound, the chicken would total about a dollar and fifty eight cents.
uc1.b3711121	‘ How much a pound?'
uc1.b3711121	‘ May I ask what is the trouble?'
uc1.b3711121	“ A jungle romp, and I'm to take my clothes off?
uc1.b3711121	“ A sense of humor, Mrs. Wingate? ” “ Yes, Mr. Wyeth.
uc1.b3711121	“ A sense of humor? ” “ A sense of humor.
uc1.b3711121	“ A show girl, and that was not his intention. ” “ No? ” “ Absolutely not.
uc1.b3711121	“ A what? ” she cried, looking hard at him.
uc1.b3711121	“ A — what? ” she cried.
uc1.b3711121	“ About Howard 2 Well, what about him? ” “ A whole lot.
uc1.b3711121	“ After all they've done to you? ” He ignored the remark.
uc1.b3711121	“ After the Sorbonne, what? ” “ A job back in the foreign office. ” “ But not shining shoes any longer, ” she said and they all smiled.
uc1.b3711121	“ Against show people?
uc1.b3711121	“ And Edrina, from now on try to be sensible, understand? ” “ Leave it to me, dear.
uc1.b3711121	“ And about how old?
uc1.b3711121	“ And besides, would you stand for such a thing? ” He looked up at her quickly.
uc1.b3711121	“ And have n't said anything about it? ” “ Perhaps I thought you knew.
uc1.b3711121	“ And how he can rehearse! ” “ The rehearsenist man that ever lived. ”- “ Remember “ Old Man Evil? ’ ” said Angel.
uc1.b3711121	“ And she's from Georgia? ” “ Atlanta, ” replied Bertha.
uc1.b3711121	“ And this — this means that — it is all — over between us, Sidney? ” she said.
uc1.b3711121	“ And trade and commerce, what do they sell; what do they have to sell? ” “ Religion mostly, ” said Marie, humorously.
uc1.b3711121	“ And what did she say?
uc1.b3711121	“ And what did you decide? ” Marie did not reply immediately, but lowered her eyes momen- tarily, then raised them to Bertha.
uc1.b3711121	“ And why? ” “ That girl? ” “ Oh, the girl.
uc1.b3711121	“ And why? ” “ That girl? ” “ Oh, the girl.
uc1.b3711121	“ And you think he's completely through with the girl back there? ” “ Completely. ” “ It might be for the best. ” “ It is.
uc1.b3711121	“ And — an'—he would n't get angry? ” 186 THE CASE OF MRS. WINGATE “ Get angry!
uc1.b3711121	“ Anyway, ” observed Angel, “ how come her running around with Wyeth, anyhow? ”- “ Maybe she's tryin'tu win a home.
uc1.b3711121	“ Are you Mrs. Wingate? ” “ I am Mrs. Wingate. ” “ Mrs.
uc1.b3711121	“ Are you driving? ” He pointed to his car, standing at the curb.
uc1.b3711121	“ Are you there? ” “ Sure, Mr. Mantan.
uc1.b3711121	“ As for instance? ” “ We ’ve all got to eat, provide a place to sleep, buy clothes to wear, pay rent and a thousand other things.
uc1.b3711121	“ Been reading about them, Betty? ” “ Yes, Mrs. Adair.
uc1.b3711121	“ Been reading your mind, maybe?
uc1.b3711121	“ Before you go to sleep, Mr. Wyeth, ” called Marie, eyes on the road ahead, “ Before I go to sleep? ” he echoed, looking at her.
uc1.b3711121	“ Berthal ” “ Yes, ” she replied, “ she was all excited about something. ” “ I wonder what it could be? ” he said curiously.
uc1.b3711121	“ But did you like it? ” “ It was n't a story that one would, I think, exactly like, Mrs. Adair.
uc1.b3711121	“ But what can I do to make you trust me, Sidney?
uc1.b3711121	“ But why and how, you might ask, did this come to happen?
uc1.b3711121	“ But why ca n't you?
uc1.b3711121	“ But why do you dislike show people so, dear? ” she began, in- nocently enough.
uc1.b3711121	“ But why — why do they permit so much indecency up here? ” Bertha wanted to know.
uc1.b3711121	“ But why, and of whom? ” She sat up again, her eyes on the floor.
uc1.b3711121	“ But would these ‘ hounds of the Baskerville's, view it that way?'
uc1.b3711121	“ But you do n't think it is genuine, real? ” “ It could be, if she'd do right by him. ” “ What do you mean? ” THE CASE OF MES.
uc1.b3711121	“ But you do n't think it is genuine, real? ” “ It could be, if she'd do right by him. ” “ What do you mean? ” THE CASE OF MES.
uc1.b3711121	“ But, what, my dear? ” “ Oh, nothing, ” he said and shrugged his shoulders to indicate that what he started to say had best be left unsaid.
uc1.b3711121	“ Can she dance? ” Irvin hesitated, then lied: “ A little. ” “ M- m.
uc1.b3711121	“ Can we talk about something very im- portant for a few minutes? ” “ Why, of course, Florence.
uc1.b3711121	“ Carter Thompson ” “ And so he fell downstairs and broke his hip, eh?
uc1.b3711121	“ Did I – make a mistake, dear? ” “ Yes, mother, you did.
uc1.b3711121	“ Did he make a good assistant? ” “ Naw, ” cried Marie disgustedly.
uc1.b3711121	“ Did they say Florence, Betty? ” “ Yes, Mrs. Adair.
uc1.b3711121	“ Did you ever hunt any in Georgia, Mr. Wyeth? ” “ I sure did.
uc1.b3711121	“ Did you think I was a- bad girl, the way I acted?
uc1.b3711121	“ Do n’t we know each other well enough by now to drop some of the formality? ” “ Why of course, ” cried Marie, glad that Bertha had called.
uc1.b3711121	“ Do n’t you think so? ” Irvin had to admit that she had.
uc1.b3711121	“ Do n’t you think so? ” They nodded and agreed it was but Wyeth did n't.
uc1.b3711121	“ Do they really love the Jews that much in America? ” Schultz laughed.
uc1.b3711121	“ Do we?
uc1.b3711121	“ Do you know what I could do so much better than that. ” “ What? ” asked Early.
uc1.b3711121	“ Do you like me, Kermit? ” “ I do n't know, Miss Florence.
uc1.b3711121	“ Do you mean to tell me that you are — that lad? ” “ That lad grown up, Baron.
uc1.b3711121	“ Do you mind going with us? ” “ I do n’t mind. ” “ Just a minute, Otto, ” said Baroness Ernestine, as they started away.
uc1.b3711121	“ Do you think I am, Mr. Wyeth 2 Really? ” “ Really, Miss Schultz.
uc1.b3711121	“ Do you think she's really interested in trying to get him to do so? ” “ Heinrich is.
uc1.b3711121	“ Do you think you’d — like to- talk about it? ” As he finished, he glanced unconsciously around at the others.
uc1.b3711121	“ Do you want me to, Sidney? ” “ I do, Edrina, seriously. ” She seemed at a loss for a moment how to proceed, what to say.
uc1.b3711121	“ Does the Jew play such cheap politics?
uc1.b3711121	“ Even more than what, Sidney? ” “ It ’s about — Howard. ” She straightened in surprise, this time glared at him.
uc1.b3711121	“ Feeling me out? ” “ Maybe. ” “ I ’m not a fairy, if that's what you're trying to find out. ” She laughed but seemed satisfied.
uc1.b3711121	“ Florence, what do you mean? ” “ He told me that he was not a normal man, mother. ” “ What l ” cried Mrs. Adair.
uc1.b3711121	“ From Wyeth?"
uc1.b3711121	“ From my brother, you mean? ” “ From your brother, Bertha. ” Bertha handed it over.
uc1.b3711121	“ Getting sleepy, sweetheart? ” “ M- m. ” “ Want me to put you to bed? ” She nodded and looked cute.
uc1.b3711121	“ Getting sleepy, sweetheart? ” “ M- m. ” “ Want me to put you to bed? ” She nodded and looked cute.
uc1.b3711121	“ Glad to hear it. ” “ Yes? ” “ She left rather abruptly the other day.
uc1.b3711121	“ Had you thought about taking anybody with you on this trip? ” “ Not exactly.
uc1.b3711121	“ Has n't he been sending you money, taking care of you all the while you were in Louisville?
uc1.b3711121	“ Has n't he bought you a divorce?
uc1.b3711121	“ Has she gone crazy?
uc1.b3711121	“ Have n't you a- script?
uc1.b3711121	“ Have n't you been going around with him ever since he put you in the show? ”.
uc1.b3711121	“ Have they? ” she repeated.
uc1.b3711121	“ Have you read that new novel, Passion, Betty? ” “ Yes, Mrs. Adair.
uc1.b3711121	“ Have you seen the papers? ” she said, and then before he could answer, she went on.
uc1.b3711121	“ Have you — something in mind, Hans? ” she asked, testily.
uc1.b3711121	“ He asked me to make you one. ” “ Make me one? ” she exclaimed.
uc1.b3711121	“ He did n't want you in a show, did he? ” She shook her head to indicate that he did n't.
uc1.b3711121	“ He did n't want you in this show, did he? ” She admitted with a shake of her head.
uc1.b3711121	“ He is a nice fellow, is n't he? ” said Marie.
uc1.b3711121	“ He is — gone? ” she asked.
uc1.b3711121	“ He told me there on our wedding night, that he was not a normal man, mother. ” “ You mean? ” “ That he was like — like — Leo M. Frank.
uc1.b3711121	“ He will. ” “ Sure? ” “ I ’ll make it sure, ” said Marie, and Bertha seemed satisfied.
uc1.b3711121	“ He — trusts me. ” “ Will he — trust Mr. Wyeth? ”- “ If I trust Mr. Wyeth, my brother will trust me with him. ” “ I see.
uc1.b3711121	“ How come? ” said Maude, turning again toward her.
uc1.b3711121	“ How do I feel about the Jews? ” he repeated.
uc1.b3711121	“ How do you suppose he's going to feel?
uc1.b3711121	“ How is Miss Schultz? ” he inquired of Marie, after they got through the letters and he had signed and was handing them back to her.
uc1.b3711121	“ How many shows have you planned for Sunday? ” he asked Levine.
uc1.b3711121	“ How much is the chicken, a pound, woman?
uc1.b3711121	“ How so? ” and Marie looked at her.
uc1.b3711121	“ How so? ” from Bertha.
uc1.b3711121	“ How'd you happen to think of him?"
uc1.b3711121	“ How'd you know? ” “ He do n't act like one, do n't talk like one, ” said Maude.
uc1.b3711121	“ How'd you like to come and work for us, Kermit?
uc1.b3711121	“ How're you coming along with the colored picture?
uc1.b3711121	“ Huh? ” “ I said she will, ” from Maude humorously.
uc1.b3711121	“ I ask you, Sidney, is that just right and fair?
uc1.b3711121	“ I beat you to it today. ” “ Beat me to it, Marie?
uc1.b3711121	“ I felt it. ” “ Going to marry Mr. Wyeth, eh? ” mused Carrie, thoughtfully.
uc1.b3711121	“ I guess this all sounds, to Negroes anyhow, who have failed too often as men of destiny, fantastic and foolish, and why am I saying all this now?
uc1.b3711121	“ I have only had one short and one longer talk with Wyeth since I arrived? ” said Kermit, a bit evasively.
uc1.b3711121	“ I like to be in Georgia at least twice a year. ” “ Why only twice, Mr. Wyeth? ” “ Twice in particular.
uc1.b3711121	“ I mean, Mr. Wyeth, I got here before you got away this time, see? ” “ Oh, ” he said, smiling and relaxing.
uc1.b3711121	“ I met you only last week, but I ’ve known you for a long, long time. ” “ Really? ”-- “ Who does n't know Sidney Wyeth?
uc1.b3711121	“ I met you only last week, but I ’ve known you for a long, long time. ” “ Really? ”-- “ Who does n't know Sidney Wyeth?
uc1.b3711121	“ I said, almost, Bertha, dear. ” “ Oh, almost?
uc1.b3711121	“ I saw Sidney last night. ”- “ You did? ” he cried, and seemed surprised.
uc1.b3711121	“ I should know?
uc1.b3711121	“ I told Bertha that Georgia was the home of Judge Lynch. ” “ And what did she say? ” He began to laugh.
uc1.b3711121	“ I will, Bertha, with the understanding that you dress and come right down. ” “ Will I?
uc1.b3711121	“ I ’m asking what you mean? ” said Marie.
uc1.b3711121	“ I- I did n't understand what it was all about. ” “ Do n’t you like to see your picture in the papers?
uc1.b3711121	“ If I was in love with her and she with me, ’’ “ — what? ” said Mrs. Wingate, pointedly.
uc1.b3711121	“ In October. ” “ October?
uc1.b3711121	“ In just what way, if any, has this affected you, and especially your book? ”- “ That is a long story. ” “ Is it? ” she said.
uc1.b3711121	“ In just what way, if any, has this affected you, and especially your book? ”- “ That is a long story. ” “ Is it? ” she said.
uc1.b3711121	“ In the meantime, how did you two come out regarding the trip yesterday? ” he now said, looking at her with some interest.
uc1.b3711121	“ Is all they say, possible? ” “ Nothing to it, ” he smiled and shook his head.
uc1.b3711121	“ Is he – related to you? ” inquired Bertha.
uc1.b3711121	“ Is it all right by you, boss? ” THE CASE OF MRS. WINGATE 383 “ All right by me, ladies, ” he said, agreeably.
uc1.b3711121	“ Is it be — because it is a colored section, and the white people do n't care what they do? ” “ In a way, yes, but not altogether so.
uc1.b3711121	“ Is n't it wonderful, Kermit?
uc1.b3711121	“ Is that so? ” mused Wyeth.
uc1.b3711121	“ Is this Mr. Wyeth a- single man? ” Kermit nodded.
uc1.b3711121	“ Is this a round- about way to see if I have changed in regards to your work on the stage?
uc1.b3711121	“ It is comfortable, Bertha. ” “ And now, what did Mr. Wyeth say? ” she asked, suddenly lean- ing forward.
uc1.b3711121	“ It is from Sidney Wyeth, is n't it? ” Her silence confirmed his words.
uc1.b3711121	“ It is uncomfortable. ” “ Why ca n't we retire to our stateroom?
uc1.b3711121	“ It would n't be worf a quatah if it was n't fo ’ dat gal. ” “ You mean the gal doin'the naked dance? ” “ Sho. ” “ Youse right.
uc1.b3711121	“ It ’s the South. ”~ “ The South? ” echoed Schiller, not understanding.
uc1.b3711121	“ It's Marie, Bertha. ” “ Has Mr. Wyeth left the office? ”- “ Yes.
uc1.b3711121	“ Jealous? ” said Wyeth, wonderingly.
uc1.b3711121	“ Just for what reason, do you mind saying? ” she asked now, solicitiously.
uc1.b3711121	“ Just how could something be made to happen, Herr Doctor? ” inquired Schiller, naively.
uc1.b3711121	“ Just what do they produce, anyhow? ” “ Arguments, mostly, ” said Marie and laughed.
uc1.b3711121	“ Just what is up to me, darling? ”- “ The stage, Edrina, your work on it.
uc1.b3711121	“ Like it? ”- “ Yes, maam, but — ” “ No buts.
uc1.b3711121	“ Lucky Negro. ” “ Now what do you mean? ” “ Just what I say.
uc1.b3711121	“ Me?
uc1.b3711121	“ Me? ” he cried, pointing to himself.
uc1.b3711121	“ Meantime, we'll call on him. ” “ Maybe you'd better call him up and — make an appointment? ” suggested Schultz.
uc1.b3711121	“ Miss Schultz could n't be expected to like anybody like me. ” “ And why not?
uc1.b3711121	“ Mother? ” “ Yes, Florence? ” “ Call Doctor Johnson. ” “ Doctor Johnson?
uc1.b3711121	“ Mother? ” “ Yes, Florence? ” “ Call Doctor Johnson. ” “ Doctor Johnson?
uc1.b3711121	“ Mother? ” “ Yes, Florence? ” “ Call Doctor Johnson. ” “ Doctor Johnson?
uc1.b3711121	“ Must have said something of importance; maybe asked you to marry him, eh? ” “ Oh, Donald, ” she said evasively.
uc1.b3711121	“ Must — I say it for you? ” she asked, eyes downcast.
uc1.b3711121	“ My brother has always seemed to be strangely lucky. ” “ Really? ” said Kermit.
uc1.b3711121	“ My slip is not showing beneath my skirt, is it?
uc1.b3711121	“ Neither would I. I'm surprised at myself, but I'm sure there's a reason. ”- “ What reason, may I ask? ” He looked at her.
uc1.b3711121	“ Next Thursday at 5 P.M. Is the date okeh with you? ” “ Sure.
uc1.b3711121	“ No, I'm not jealous any longer, dear. ” “ Then what? ” “ Curious. ” “ Curious?
uc1.b3711121	“ No, I'm not jealous any longer, dear. ” “ Then what? ” “ Curious. ” “ Curious?
uc1.b3711121	“ Nothing. ” “ Well? ” “ Because they teach nothing about Negroes in our schools but the history of slavery and the war that ended it.
uc1.b3711121	“ Nothing? ” he repeated, and looked closely at her.
uc1.b3711121	“ Now does that sound all right? ” “ Sounds better if you mean it and intend to stick to it, ” he agreed and seemed a bit more satisfied.
uc1.b3711121	“ Now returning to the stage and as I have said, you like it and you're hoping to go places on it. ”- “ Well? ”- THE CASE OF MIRS.
uc1.b3711121	“ Now what do you mean? ” she said, frowning impatiently.
uc1.b3711121	“ Now when does Mr. Wyeth plan to leave? ” “ In a few weeks. ” “ Fine.
uc1.b3711121	“ Now will you — believe me? ” “ I believe you, Edrina.
uc1.b3711121	“ Now, where do we go from here, partner? ” said Edrina, and waited for him to make the next move, a smile spreading over her face.
uc1.b3711121	“ Now, who will go with you on this — trip? ” He shook his head.
uc1.b3711121	“ Of course not. ” “ But — but why not? ” “ Because I do n’t want to. ” “ But they will be reported, ” she said.
uc1.b3711121	“ Oh, I do n’t know. ” “ You ’ve known him a long time? ” “ Yes.
uc1.b3711121	“ Oh, Kermit, why? ” “ I do n't know, ” he sighed thoughtfully, gazing at nothing.
uc1.b3711121	“ Oh, down at the city hall, perhaps? ” She frowned.
uc1.b3711121	“ Oh, for lack of money to make them with for one thing. ” “ Lack of money?
uc1.b3711121	“ Oh, it will not begin to show for months yet. ” “ No? ” “ Of course not, darling.
uc1.b3711121	“ Oh, so it's gone that far, eh? ” Again she nodded, her eyes down- cast.
uc1.b3711121	“ Oh, so that's what the hold back is all about, eh? ” she cried, eyes dilated, with inspiration.
uc1.b3711121	“ Oh, what? ” Then seeing she was getting nowhere, she made a final try.
uc1.b3711121	“ Oh, you know me? ” said the Baron in surprise, drawing his wife to one side to be out of the way of people, going in and out of the salon.
uc1.b3711121	“ Oh, you're wondering what my interest could be, are n't you?
uc1.b3711121	“ On account of Wyeth? ” She nodded affirmatively.
uc1.b3711121	“ Or do you — have an interest in the business? ” “ Oh, just work here, Hans.
uc1.b3711121	“ Or, maybe, rearrange this one? ”- “ Perhaps.
uc1.b3711121	“ Pardon me, ” she said, pleasantly, “ but is this the office of Mr. Sidney Wyeth? ”- “ It is, ” replied Marie, courteously, pleasantly.
uc1.b3711121	“ Please call me Bertha- that is, if you want to. ” “ Do you want me to? ” he asked.
uc1.b3711121	“ Plenty? ” he repeated, curiously, a bit anxiously.
uc1.b3711121	“ Quit the whining and come with me to the back room, do you THE CASE OF MRS. WINGATE- 37 hear? ” Again she shook him.
uc1.b3711121	“ Really? ” he said.
uc1.b3711121	“ Really? ” “ Sho. ” “ Whores. ”- “ Naw.
uc1.b3711121	“ She was n't trying to get into the movies. ” “ Then whatever could a pretty girl want to see me about, if not to try to get into the movies?
uc1.b3711121	“ Since you feel as you do about it, supposing that we postpone our wedding awhile?
uc1.b3711121	“ So beautiful! ” “ Never been out this way? ” inquired Wyeth.
uc1.b3711121	“ So glad? ” called Marie.
uc1.b3711121	“ So it will be all right to tell Bertha you'll take her with you? ” she said.
uc1.b3711121	“ So these high officials will be passing over that bridge if they go west to the coast? ” “ Sho.
uc1.b3711121	“ Some steps, eh, Kermit? ” He looked down.
uc1.b3711121	“ Soon? ” she asked.
uc1.b3711121	“ Sort of a joke? ” “ No, ” replied Heinrich.
uc1.b3711121	“ Strictly on the level. ” “ Is that so? ” said Schiller, a touch of doubt still in his tone.
uc1.b3711121	“ Supposing you let me, this time, yes? ” “ Sure, baby.
uc1.b3711121	“ Take it easy, Marie. ” “ What am I to do? ” she blurted out, looking at him oddly.
uc1.b3711121	“ Tell him that — that I ’ve been married? ” “ Of course you can, ” he cried.
uc1.b3711121	“ Tell me now, Bertha, ” Marie began, “ What is all the excitement about?
uc1.b3711121	“ That girls like her usually go all overboard on some good- looker like Thompson, you remember, and who used to work for us. ” “ Yes?
uc1.b3711121	“ That was because he loved her, was n't it? ” “ Yes, he loved her. ” Mrs. Wingate seemed more satisfied now.
uc1.b3711121	“ That ’s fine. ” “ And who, pray, is Sidney Wyeth? ” cried their mother, perking up, curiously.
uc1.b3711121	“ That's what's worrying me at the moment. ” “ What is it? ” he said, turning and coming closer.
uc1.b3711121	“ That's why they went away so suddenly, eh? ”- “ Yes.
uc1.b3711121	“ The first day? ” she said, also reflectively.
uc1.b3711121	“ The last time you were there? ”- “ Yes, I'm living here now, you know. ” “ Oh, you're living in Atlanta?
uc1.b3711121	“ The last time you were there? ”- “ Yes, I'm living here now, you know. ” “ Oh, you're living in Atlanta?
uc1.b3711121	“ The price, please? ” Marie told her and went for a copy, bringing it forward and showing it to her.
uc1.b3711121	“ The same old thing. ” “ Do n’t like the “ hate the Jew ’ angle? ” “ That ’s it. ” “ I do n’t understand.
uc1.b3711121	“ The show's dying, if you understand what that means. ” Still, she was confused, so repeated after him: “ Dying? ”-- “ Dying dead.
uc1.b3711121	“ Then on whom? ” she looked at him sobbingly.
uc1.b3711121	“ Then please do that, wo n't you?
uc1.b3711121	“ Then what are we waiting for? ” said Schultz following Kermit.
uc1.b3711121	“ Then what do you want- me to do, Sidney darling? ” Her question rather caught him off guard.
uc1.b3711121	“ Then who? ” “ I ’d rather not say.
uc1.b3711121	“ Then, he- he does n't want me? ” she said, slowly.
uc1.b3711121	“ Then, we can — sit in his office? ” “ Of course, Bertha. ” “ Meanwhile, I can wait until you work. ” “ I am caught up.
uc1.b3711121	“ Then? ” “ I ’m willing to take her along if she wants to go. ” “ Wants to go? ”... •- “ Yes.
uc1.b3711121	“ Then? ” “ I ’m willing to take her along if she wants to go. ” “ Wants to go? ”... •- “ Yes.
uc1.b3711121	“ They wo n't do this, will they?
uc1.b3711121	“ They've never done anything to you, have they?
uc1.b3711121	“ Think so? ” he echoed.
uc1.b3711121	“ Think they'll succeed? ” “ I do n’t think so. ” “ Why? ” “ The Jews are closer to Roosevelt.
uc1.b3711121	“ Think they'll succeed? ” “ I do n’t think so. ” “ Why? ” “ The Jews are closer to Roosevelt.
uc1.b3711121	“ Think you could — what? ” he did n't seem to understand.
uc1.b3711121	“ This is his real name, then, is it not? ” “ Yes, ” said Marie.
uc1.b3711121	“ This is some affair, is n't it? ” she said, and laughed lightly.
uc1.b3711121	“ This is your room, Kermit. ” “ My room? ” he repeated in surprise.
uc1.b3711121	“ This race question, strange thing, is n't it, Betty? ” “ I'm afraid so, ” said Betty.
uc1.b3711121	“ To play down there has always been my ambition, the height of my ambition, of my dreams. ”-- “ Have you got anything to sell to Broadway?
uc1.b3711121	“ To visit your mother and sisters?
uc1.b3711121	“ Too hot, honey? ” “ Too hot, darling, ” she said.
uc1.b3711121	“ Trying to make a fool of the man, hunh?
uc1.b3711121	“ Twice, Mr. Wyeth. ”- “ Twice? ” he said this in such a way that she had to explain it was not necessary to do so in order to understand it.
uc1.b3711121	“ We are not important, Kermit and I, are we Kermit? ” He laid a comforting hand on her.
uc1.b3711121	“ We have n't sunk that low, really, have we? ” Marie embraced her.
uc1.b3711121	“ We ’re so happy, are n't we, Kermit? ” “ So happy, Florence.
uc1.b3711121	“ Well, I'll just have to be patient and give you time. ” “ Do n’t you think I ought to be going? ” he said, stirring.
uc1.b3711121	“ Well, how do you like the new show? ” she started, pretending to be surprised.
uc1.b3711121	“ Well, how ’re you making out with your book? ” he inquired, laconically.
uc1.b3711121	“ Well, how'd you like it? ” “ Oh, it seemd all right — I guess. ” “ You guess"she repeated.
uc1.b3711121	“ Well, she smiled at me, and says: “ A chicken?
uc1.b3711121	“ Well, she's a widow now and I'm wondering if she and Kermit are going to get married. ” “ Has he said anything about it? ” inquired Marie.
uc1.b3711121	“ Well, since we are the victims, would n't it seem appropriate for the Negro to be awakened to his own perils? ” said Schultz.
uc1.b3711121	“ Well, what do you think of him by now, since you've met and talked with him? ” “ Oh, fine, ” said Bertha, smiling and looking the part.
uc1.b3711121	“ Well, what do you think of it? ” she ventured.
uc1.b3711121	“ Well, ” to herself, “ What is it? ” He was talking.
uc1.b3711121	“ Well? ” “ Levine's squawking. ” “ I was afraid he would be.
uc1.b3711121	“ Well? ”- “ I ’ll be at rehearsal tonight, ” she said, without looking at him, but rising to her feet, walked by him on the way out.
uc1.b3711121	“ Were you in the show? ” and he turned and nodded his head toward the theatre.
uc1.b3711121	“ What about Wyeth?
uc1.b3711121	“ What did you learn about the Jewish situation, if anything, in particular, in America? ” inquired the Baron, evenly.
uc1.b3711121	“ What do they want with all they have asked; with all the pictures they took? ” “ You ’ll see by tomorrow morning's papers, ” said Wyeth.
uc1.b3711121	“ What do you honestly think about the intermarriage of races? ” The question was a difficult one, a bold one, an embarrassing one.
uc1.b3711121	“ What do you mean by you guess?
uc1.b3711121	“ What do you mean, the Jews did it? ” “ It is n't easy to explain and is a long story, ” said Wyeth.
uc1.b3711121	“ What do you think of the idea by now, Mr. Jackson? ” 80 THE CASE OF MRS. WINGATE “ Oh, de story was fine, Miss.
uc1.b3711121	“ What does she mean — going to have a baby? ” he exclaimed out loud.
uc1.b3711121	“ What for? ” from Heinrich.
uc1.b3711121	“ What has been happen- ing since?
uc1.b3711121	“ What has happened with your engagement to him, anyhow?
uc1.b3711121	“ What is it, Bertha? ” Marie now called back, sitting up and taking notice.
uc1.b3711121	“ What is it? ” Marie asked.
uc1.b3711121	“ What more?
uc1.b3711121	“ What shall I tell Bertha when she calls or comes around? ” “ Well, ” he said, moving across to the door, preparatory to leav- ing.
uc1.b3711121	“ What was he doing in Baltimore, anyhow? ” he cried, impatiently.
uc1.b3711121	“ What would be wonderful, Edrina? ” he inquired.
uc1.b3711121	“ What's going on?
uc1.b3711121	“ What's happened to your deal?
uc1.b3711121	“ What's the matter with Broadway?
uc1.b3711121	“ What's the matter? ” said Bertha, looking at her concernedly.
uc1.b3711121	“ What's this? ” said Hans.
uc1.b3711121	“ When I rehearsed from April to October in the thing?
uc1.b3711121	“ When Mr. Wyeth leaves the office, do you think he will be gone all day? ” “ He ’s getting ready to leave now.
uc1.b3711121	“ When are you going to move in? ” she said.
uc1.b3711121	“ When shall we get married? ” He turned to her.
uc1.b3711121	“ When? ” “ Now, ” said Early, promptly rising to his feet.
uc1.b3711121	“ Whenever you say. ” “ How about tomorrow night? ” “ Okey by me, ” said he.
uc1.b3711121	“ Where are you going from here? ” “ Where? ” he repeated absently.
uc1.b3711121	“ Where are you going from here? ” “ Where? ” he repeated absently.
uc1.b3711121	“ Where do you want to go? ” Marie asked, looking across at him.
uc1.b3711121	“ Where have I heard that name before? ” “ From Heinrich and me.
uc1.b3711121	“ Where is the girl now? ” “ In that show on 125th Street. ” “ Oh, I thought she was in Louisville, ” said Bertha.
uc1.b3711121	“ Where you wanted to go? ”*.
uc1.b3711121	“ Where? ” she asked.
uc1.b3711121	“ Where? ” “ To the po'house, ” laughed Maude.
uc1.b3711121	“ Which girl?
uc1.b3711121	“ Which one?
uc1.b3711121	“ Who introduced you to him, Edrina? ” inquired Alice curiously.
uc1.b3711121	“ Who ’s behind all this, anyhow, Kermit?
uc1.b3711121	“ Who's the glook outside?
uc1.b3711121	“ Who, me? ” she threw back at him coldly.
uc1.b3711121	“ Why about the Jew?
uc1.b3711121	“ Why are you saying all this, Sidney? ” “ I ’m coming to something.
uc1.b3711121	“ Why did n't you come to the front door?
uc1.b3711121	“ Why did n't you suggest that angle to me long ago, darling? ”- “ It ’s a brilliant angle, ” cried Heinrich.
uc1.b3711121	“ Why do n't you — get it off?
uc1.b3711121	“ Why not?
uc1.b3711121	“ Why not? ” Schiller wanted to know.
uc1.b3711121	“ Why not? ” said Marie.
uc1.b3711121	“ Why not? ” said the Baroness, rising to her feet.
uc1.b3711121	“ Why play at it, dear?
uc1.b3711121	“ Why should n't it? ” “ Because it should n't.
uc1.b3711121	“ Why smile, Marie?
uc1.b3711121	“ Why? ” “ He ’s a plain sort of person.
uc1.b3711121	“ Will Mr. Wyeth approve? ” she was next asked, whereupon Edrina answered with her sweetest and most attractive smile.
uc1.b3711121	“ Will he be gone very — long? ” There was a note of anxiety in her tone.
uc1.b3711121	“ Will it make any difference in your immediate plans, dear? ” she asked, her eyes on him anxiously.
uc1.b3711121	“ Will you be going to Georgia again soon? ”.
uc1.b3711121	“ Will you go, or shall I open the door and scream? ” “ I ’ll — I'll go, Miss Florence.
uc1.b3711121	“ With me?
uc1.b3711121	“ Would you mind dancing with — me? ” she said and held up her arms.
uc1.b3711121	“ Would you — marry a white girl if you were in love with her? ” He started, looked around at the others, who were all looking at him.
uc1.b3711121	“ Yes, Kermit, Been living here since I married. ” 40 THE CASE OF MRS. WINGATE “ Since you married And so you're married?
uc1.b3711121	“ Yes, dear? ” “ About your — your folks back in Wakefield? ” She sighed.
uc1.b3711121	“ Yes, dear? ” “ About your — your folks back in Wakefield? ” She sighed.
uc1.b3711121	“ Yes, how can you? ” Wyeth repeated.
uc1.b3711121	“ Yes, of course. ”- “ So what am I going to do? ” she said, still frowning, and look- ing at him, helplessly.
uc1.b3711121	“ Yes? ”- “ By all means.
uc1.b3711121	“ You can feel that something, Edrina, ca n't you? ” he whispered, hoarsely.
uc1.b3711121	“ You did or just sketched through it? ” “ Sketched it?
uc1.b3711121	“ You did or just sketched through it? ” “ Sketched it?
uc1.b3711121	“ You do n't know?

uc1.b3711121	“ You saw what? ” “ Do n’t try to kid me, Kermit.
uc1.b3711121	“ You say that you — like Atlanta? ” “ Oh, fine.
uc1.b3711121	“ You talked with him? ” “ I talked with him, Bertha, rather, we talked about it. ” “ I see, ” said Bertha, thoughtfully.
uc1.b3711121	“ You want me to say that — that you — like me, Sidney? ” “ I do like you, Bertha.
uc1.b3711121	“ You would like to see us sell a lot of books, would n't you? ” “ Of course.
uc1.b3711121	“ You — were — born in- Germany? ” exclaimed the Baron, a bit incredulously.
uc1.b3711121	“ You — you know what you saw when I came for the shine?
uc1.b3711121	“ You ’re still going with him, are n't you?
uc1.b3711121	“ You ’ve been over there several months, how is he able to do it, Herr Schultz? ” inquired the Baron, crossing a leg and lighting a cigarette.
uc1.b3711121	“ You ’ve been — abroad, Miss Schultz? ” “ I have, Miss Coleman, attending school, ” replied Bertha.
uc1.b3711121	“ You ’ve had a visitor, among other things. ” “ A visitor?
uc1.b3711121	“ You? ” he repeated.
uc1.b3711121	“ You’d — rather not talk about it, perhaps? ” she said now, glancing across at Wyeth, hesitantly.
