16349He pitied her, and said:"My good woman, have you lost anything?
16349He pointed them out to Campbell, and said:"What kind of birds are they?
16349He said:"Is Dr. Ignatius at home?"
16349He said:"Now, Jack, what are you going to do with that knife?"
16349He said:"Oh, is that you, Pilot?
16349He said:"Ve gates, schoolmeister?
16349He said:"Where''s that Britisher?
16349He said:"You as good as any other man, are you?
16349He said:"You want a place to camp on, do n''t you?"
16349He said:''Who are you, where from, and whither bound?''
16349He slowly repeated:"Nancy Toomey has been calling me a carroty- headed crawler, has she?"
16349He stayed with us all the time, and when we had eaten, said:"''Well, have you had a good breakfast?''
16349He was, indeed, very vain and flighty, sidling along his perch and saying:"Sweet pretty Joey, who are you, who are you?
16349Her mother would be certain to miss the watch, and what was she to do with it?
16349Here, Mr. Campbell, would n''t you like to take a roast egg or two for breakfast?
16349How are you getting along?"
16349How could he betray Jemima, his future partner in life?
16349Hugh Boyle held out the bottle, and said,''Here, Mr. McLaggan, would n''t you like a nip yourself?''
16349I asked him what he would like, a drink of water or a cup of tea?
16349I said dere''s de blackfellow, and he''s got papa''s lowsers on, did n''t I now?"
16349I said:"''I guess, Jonathan, this little kid is about the same age as your youngest boy in Boston, ai n''t he?''
16349I say, Nosey, you do n''t happen to have seen any dingoes or blacks about here lately?"
16349I suppose you are an honest man; you look like it anyway, and you would not want to see me murdered, now, would you?"
16349I suppose you were asleep, eh?
16349I would like to know what right the Government, or anybody else, has to ask me for twenty pounds for putting up a hut on this sandbank?
16349Ignatius?"
16349Is it a snake you are killing?"
16349Is that it?
16349Is that what you ask?
16349It has been asked, when did life first appear on the earth?
16349Jack said:"Do you see that big fellow there?
16349Know ye not that smiling river?
16349Man alive, do n''t you know the villain wants to murder me?"
16349Mat said:"Hello, you coves, is it robbing my garden ye are?"
16349Mr. Tyers, the commissioner?
16349Neddy said one night:"Do n''t you think, Joshua, this game of yours is rather dangerous?
16349Nosey eyed him with unusual savagery, and said:"Now did n''t I tell you to say no more about your blasted sheep, or I''d see you for it?
16349Now I put it to you, Neddy, as an honest and sensible man, Am I to get no pay for that seven years''work?
16349Now what did you mean?
16349Or is it true that in our inmost souls we wanted them to die, that we might possess their land in peace?
16349Philip said:"Not very lucky to- day, mate?"
16349Philip went up to the Boozer and said:"Well, my friend, what do you want here?"
16349Sambo paused, looked up to the gum tree, and said,"By golly, who''s dere?"
16349Shackson?"
16349She said:"You see dose two ducks, Miss Sheppard?"
16349So I crossed over and met him, and went close up to him and said,''Well, what have you to say for yoursel''now?''
16349So ye never went to Gippsland at all?"
16349Tell me now, did I murder poor Baldy or did you?
16349The bees or other insects usually take the dust from one flower to the other, but I suppose there are no bees about here just now?"
16349The blacks came nearer, and one of them said,"Gib fig tobacker, mate?"
16349The great question for statesmen now is,"What is to be done for the relief of the masses?"
16349The question is rather, when did the inanimate first appear?
16349The wife said:"What are we boun''to do now, Samiul?
16349Then she said to Mrs. Martin:"Ai n''t it a pity that so respectable a young man should be tramping through the bush like a pedlar with a pack?"
16349Then turning to Cowderoy, he said:"Do you know the nature of an oath?"
16349They look curious, do n''t they?
16349This woke up Bunbury, who sang out:"What''s the matter, Ruffles?
16349To see the isolated and miserable domiciles you occupy and the hard fare on which you subsist?
16349Was I to stand here all day and say never a word for myself until they were ready to hang me?
16349Was it not you who struck him down with the axe without saying as much as''by your leave,''either to me or to him?
16349Was n''t I always on the watch for you every evening looking for you, and the chop on the fire, and the hot tea, and everything comfortable?
16349We found two women cooking supper in the kitchen, and Jonathan said to the younger one,''Is the old man at home?''
16349Well, about those buoys, eh?
16349Were you ever in Preston?"
16349What do you say, Ned?
16349What do you say, mates?
16349What do you think about it, Nosey?"
16349What doom could they expect but that of damnation and eternal death?
16349What good could it do you?
16349What has the Government done for me or anybody else in Gippsland?
16349What has the poor fellow done to you, I''d like to know?
16349What have you to say to that charge?"
16349What makes you ask?"
16349What of that?
16349What shall I do?"
16349What was to be done with the prisoner?
16349What will my friends of the club in London say, when they hear of it, but that the service is going to the dogs?"
16349What with Jack, and what with herself?
16349What wrong have I done?"
16349What''s all that noise about?"
16349Whatever am I to do?
16349Wheer are me and the childer to go in this miserable lookin''place?"
16349When he went on board he spoke to Ruffles, master of the schooner, and said:"Is the harbour- master aboard?
16349When she returned, Nosey said, in a hoarse whisper:"Is he gan yet?"
16349When the wine has been drawn off from the lees, and time has matured it, of what kind will it be?
16349Where is the sense of that, I''d like to know?
16349Which way shall we go?
16349Who are the men in the boat down the channel?"
16349Who are you?
16349Who are you?
16349Who are you?
16349Who is that cove with the spyglass?"
16349Who''s afeered?
16349Why are you here?
16349Why did n''t you leave me alone when I had the fine holt of him?"
16349Why do n''t you like them?"
16349Why do n''t you parsons make money by your eddication if it''s any good, instead of goin''round beggin''?
16349Why not transport all convicts, separate the chaff from the wheat, and purge out the old leaven?
16349You are a gentleman; you have done yourself proud, and we are thankful, ai n''t we, Jack?
16349You can box it and make a bee- line for Western Port, ca n''t you?
16349You eat me?
16349You may be found out some day by an unlucky chance, and then what will you do?"
16349You''ve done your time once, Nosey, and how would you like to do it again?
16349he said,"and what are you doing here, and where did you come from?"
16349is that you?"
16349or had he any fear of hell and eternal punishment?
16349who are you?
16349you were sent out, were you?
16349you''d like to know who does it, would you?
16349your name is Peter, is n''t it?
43465''Haud yer jaw,''answered the first;''think ye they keep a pack of young hounds like this to point free rangers? 43465 ''How''d they get at it, man?''
43465Am I a squatter?
43465And pray, most valiant knight of Ireland,answered Arthur,"where are your weapons of warfare?"
43465And the daisies?
43465And what does Emma do in the wilderness?
43465Are all assembled?
43465Are there any hopes? 43465 Are we to turn up our watering- river?"
43465Arthur, what shall we do?
43465But are you not afraid of the bush- rangers being attracted by your valuable storehouse?
43465But are your retainers spread about the estate?
43465But how shall we bring back the supplies to the camp?
43465But is not this bird believed to be the harbinger of storms?
43465But it''s safe to eat?
43465But might not Wilkins go?
43465But surely, Margaret,answered Emma,"you are not speaking of the graceless convict, Wilkins?
43465But the bush- rangers,said Margaret;"are you not ever in fear of the crafty, vindictive bush- rangers?"
43465But what possible use can the misguided man have for money in a wilderness among savages?
43465But what shall I do with the boy,he said,"when my duties summon me to distant lands?
43465But, Gerald, is it not somewhat unkind to form so hasty a judgment?
43465But, Margaret,replied he,"how can you hope that we shall ever be able to traverse the vast space that must separate us?
43465But, my poor mistaken man,said Mr. Mayburn,"what in the world can these savages do with money in this houseless wilderness?"
43465Can anybody extract sense from the exclamations of this wild girl?
43465Can it be possible,asked Margaret,"that we are really so near to Daisy Grange that the animals scent it?"
43465Can not we both work and wait on you? 43465 Can we not set out now?"
43465Can we not show them a light?
43465Could n''t I steal among the trees and get a peep at them?
43465Could n''t we carry the canoes forward awhile? 43465 Could n''t we drop pebbles, as Hop- o''-my- Thumb did?"
43465Could we not plant potatoes here?
43465Deverell, I conclude?
43465Did n''t I tell you, Master Gerald,said Ruth,"that it were a sin and a shame to make them things as would rive folks''flesh?"
43465Did the police really get hold of her, nurse?
43465Did you ever learn your Catechism, Davy?
43465Did you see me shoot the eagle, papa?
43465Do you conceive, Wilkins, that the river is really the safest course?
43465Do you fancy our little troop could drive all that lot of fellows before us like a flock of sheep? 43465 Do you mean us to set out fasting with these malignant scoundrels?"
43465Do you not think, papa,answered Margaret,"that you are partly responsible for his mischievous follies?
43465Do you remember how we used to feed the handsome fellow with bits of bread on the voyage? 43465 Do you think Peter is with them?"
43465Do you think so, my very dear friend?
43465Do you think they came from the mainland?
43465Do you think, Mr. Arthur,said Jack,"they will be leaving any of the canoes behind them?
43465Gerald, you rash fellow,cried Arthur,"what has induced you to such a wild frolic?
43465Had we not better flee without delay?
43465Has a duck four legs, Ruth?
43465Has it fur on its back, and a broad finny tail? 43465 Have you no better prog than this poor stuff?"
43465How did this happen, Hugh?
43465How many legs have they, Master Hugh?
43465Hugh, my boy, are you hurt?
43465I am almost afraid to suggest it,said Mr. Mayburn;"but why should we leave this lovely, tranquil valley?
43465I am glad they are in such good hands,answered Deverell;"but however did my shepherd meet with you?"
43465I conclude, boys, that you have found some other outlet from the cave; but how could you risk discovery for the sake of these birds?
43465I see no entrance,said Hugh,"is it possible that it is inhabited?"
43465If you please, Mr. Charles,said Jack,"do you think Mr. Edward has any tools?"
43465If you please, Mr. Deverell,said Jenny,"yon''s a bonnie flock of geese; could n''t ye get us one for a roast?"
43465Is n''t it a pity to hurry t''poor master over these weary commons and fells? 43465 Is that Susan Raine?"
43465Is that the pretty, modest Susan, that was our fellow- voyager?
43465Is''t a duck, think ye, Miss Marget?
43465It is plain they have no means of crossing the river,said Arthur;"but, Wilkins, what can have induced them to return from the mountains?"
43465It''s very nice, Miss Marget,answered Jenny;"but do n''t you think we should be better of a change of meat?
43465Margaret, what do you say to this plan?
43465Nay, nay, lass, what need for folks to bury tea and sugar?
43465Now, Captain Arthur,cried out Hugh,"please to say where we are, and whither we are to go?"
43465Now, Gerald,said Margaret,"I beseech you to tell me what is the meaning of all this alarm?"
43465Now, nurse, what will you have?
43465Oh, Jack, man, let me be,cried she;"did n''t thou see''t?
43465Please, sir, have you plenty of timber?
43465Poor creature,said Mr. Mayburn;"can we not restore her to her people, Wilkins?
43465See, here''s six eggs they''ve laid; is n''t that some good? 43465 T''boats is safe; and what say ye if we be off?
43465Thank God you are not much worse; so what have you to cry about now?
43465Thanks, Harris; but tell me, is all well at the Grange?
43465Then surely we may climb the woods at the side?
43465Then what shall we do, Wilkins? 43465 There is Davy, who seems honest, could we not trust him to conduct us and our two poor women to our friends the Deverells?"
43465There''s some sense in that,answered the man;"but when ye''ve gotten your boat fettled up, what port would ye be making for?"
43465These sailors are strangers; why do you class them as rogues?
43465They held spears in their hands, I saw,said Gerald;"I wonder why they did not send a few among us?"
43465They''ll eat us all, Jack; and, oh, what will Jenny say? 43465 Unfortunate girl,"said Mr. Mayburn,"have you lost your senses, or what have you done?
43465Wait a bit; here''s a storm ower our heads; or, if ye want work, what say ye to sinking yon bit pond a foot deeper? 43465 Was Bill with''em, sir?"
43465Well, Patrick,said Deverell to one of the men,"what is the jest that you seem to enjoy so much?"
43465Well, papa, what bird is it?
43465What can we do, Gerald?
43465What do we want with women and lads?
43465What do you think of our game- bag, General Arthur?
43465What do you think, Mr. Arthur, of one of those big oyster or mussel shells? 43465 What does papa say?
43465What does the wild boy mean, Arthur?
43465What has become of our raft?
43465What have we to fear, Jack?
43465What in the world is that before us, Arthur?
43465What is a_ jin_, Wilkins?
43465What is that fluttering sound I hear?
43465What must I do? 43465 What say you, Arthur,"asked Hugh,"will your excellency permit two of your humble servants to set out on an exploring expedition?"
43465What shall we do, Wilkins?
43465What think you of that, Mr. Arthur? 43465 What was the cause of your accident, unhappy man?"
43465What will Margaret say?
43465What would they do here? 43465 What would you advise, Arthur?"
43465What''s a few savages? 43465 When are we to dine-- or sup, rather-- commander?"
43465Where are they? 43465 Where are we to get the pebbles?"
43465Where can the fellow mean to steer to?
43465Where hast thou been? 43465 Where next?"
43465Where shall I stand, Wilkins?
43465Whither can we flee to avoid these desperate cannibals?
43465Whither shall we flee?
43465Who calls fire?
43465Who dares to say that?
43465Who has moved them stones?
43465Who is killed? 43465 Who will be the safest?
43465Who would be the fools then?
43465Why, what''s the good of that?
43465Why, you Irish blunderer,replied Hugh,"whoever heard that either dragon or enchanter could be overcome by powder and shot?
43465Will they be Christians, Master Gerald?
43465Will they burn us alive, Miss Marget?
43465Will they have oughts of cash with them?
43465Will we plant some? 43465 Would it not be an idle and useless existence, papa?"
43465Would you mind about having the nest and egg of that fellow, sir?
43465Yet have I not a greater aid?
43465Yet why dare I doubt?
43465''Dost thee think they''ve got wings to flee down?''
43465And have these comrades of thine any cash or stuff worth lifting?
43465And now, Arthur, do n''t you think our citadel is in danger?"
43465And this might be a rose, with its slender stem, and pale- pink wax- like petals-- is it not a_ Boronea_, Arthur?
43465And wo n''t Margaret think us a set of poltroons?"
43465And you, my dear Edward-- would it not be also desirable that you should bring some lady suitable to you to this pleasant abode?
43465And,"with an oath,"Wilkins, man, how came you to drop in among these saints?"
43465Are we not proud of our captain?"
43465Arrah, did n''t them rogues see that when they came kidnapping?
43465Arthur shuddered as he said,"Is that narrow terrace passable, do you think, Gerald?"
43465Arthur, what do you say?
43465Arthur, what do you say?"
43465Arthur, what do you say?"
43465Arthur, will you, with your usual prudence, decide which way we shall turn?
43465Arthur?"
43465Arthur?"
43465At last Hugh said,--"Is n''t it a capital chance for us, Arthur, that the great drove of cattle are before the keen- eyed rangers?
43465At length, she called out from her berth,"Nurse, are you awake?
43465Ay, their track runs upward; what say ye, Mr. Arthur, are we to follow it?"
43465But I say, what''s yon black bit?"
43465But are we not some miles from those threatening savages now, Arthur?"
43465But can we cross at once?
43465But can we make up our minds to part with our tried and faithful friend?
43465But could we not hide in this thick wood?
43465But if they have him, as it were, in prison, what do you say, Mr. Arthur, should n''t we help him?"
43465But it''s God will, and, please Him, we must all do our best; we shall be missed here; and oh, Miss Marget, what will come of poor Ruth Martin?
43465But ought we not all to depart?
43465But the question arose,"Where did this bull come from?"
43465But what is this white, chalky- looking material by the pool?
43465But where are you mounting now?"
43465But where can their den be?
43465But where''s he slunk?''
43465But why has Hugh climbed that almost perpendicular cliff?"
43465But, Captain Deverell, whatever are we to do with these prisoners?"
43465But, now, my boy, we must try to find the end of this wonderful maze-- who knows but what it may lead to liberty?"
43465Can we possibly repair them, Jack?
43465Can you walk as far, papa?"
43465Could it not be attempted, Arthur?"
43465Could n''t we go out now, Arthur?
43465Could we not go out to the reefs, Arthur, and look for it?"
43465Deverell?"
43465Did you ever hear such a noise-- laughing, braying, trumpeting?
43465Did you see that stringy bark tree just at hand, Mr. Arthur?
43465Do n''t I hear it trickling beneath that bright turf, and wo n''t we soak our boots well, my dears?"
43465Do n''t you think so, Wilkins?"
43465Do you not think that I should begin at once, by recalling my boys to their daily studies?"
43465Do you think it could possibly be from some station?
43465Do you think they will murder him?"
43465Do you yet see the enemy, Gerald?"
43465Edward Deverell held out one of them to Jenny, saying,"Now, my good woman, can you tell me what this fowl is?"
43465Even the hardened convict lowered his voice as he said, with levity, to Jack,"That was a canny bit prayer; will''it help us ony, think ye?"
43465Had we not better cut some spears as we make our way, that we may be prepared to slay the dragons?"
43465Had you sense to fetch a compass?"
43465Has not Jack transformed a flint- stone into an axe?
43465Have the rogues spared poor Lily, David?
43465Have we got so near the squatters, Wilkins?"
43465Have ye fetched our beast back?"
43465Have you any idea what islands these are?"
43465Have you not rather turned it to evil?"
43465Here''s been four on''em; and look ye here, what call ye them tracks?
43465How are they to be stowed?"
43465How came you here?
43465How can you and I penetrate forests, climb mountains, or cross mighty rivers?"
43465How is it, Master Arthur?
43465How is the castle provisioned, Jenny?"
43465How shall we contrive it, Emma?"
43465Hugh, my boy,"said Gerald,"did n''t I know all the time that it was my moans and groans that made you turn soft and sob like a girl?
43465I am but the barren fig- tree, and continually I hear that awful sentence ringing in my ear,''Cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground?''"
43465I say, Arty, have n''t I got my share?"
43465I say, Ruth, what do you think of them?"
43465Is David Simple with you?
43465Is it because we''re atop of the water?"
43465Is it safe to venture from this quiet retreat yet?
43465Is there any mode left us to escape, do you think, Wilkins?"
43465Is there any sense in sending up a smoke to let''em see where we are?"
43465Is this truly human nature, papa?"
43465It''s a snug, cunning hole; will''t be t''p''lice office, think ye?''
43465Know you not that for all these things God will bring you to judgment?"
43465Loud and angry words were heard, which Baldabella interpreted to be,--"What for white men come here?
43465Margaret looked intently for some time in silence; then, turning to her brother, she said,"Are those figures we see really birds, Arthur?"
43465Master Hugh, honey, is it that good- to- nought Black Peter?"
43465May we not hope it indicates the situation of another river?"
43465Must I knock it down?"
43465Now Heaven has sent you to us, may I not, then, venture to hope that you are ours for life?"
43465Now the question was, who would venture on this frail float the first?
43465Now what think ye of that, sir?"
43465Now, Hugh, after you heard the gun?"
43465Now, how are we to get hold of him?
43465Now, what for did we come in a merchantman, as quiet and dull as a quaker?
43465Now, which of these roads shall we take?
43465Oh, Mr. Arthur, have you not found them?"
43465Ought we not to rejoice?"
43465Ruth, how do the cocks and hens like this weather?"
43465Ruth, would you not like to be Mr. Deverell''s poultry- woman?"
43465See and aim to do some damage-- d''ye hear?"
43465Shall we then at once set out on our important expedition?"
43465Tell t''master I''se nought like so bad but that there''s some hopes of me, if Sue will take up wi''me; but how can I look for''t?"
43465The fire has just reached the tallow hogsheads, man, and where will your ship be then?
43465The important question is, who cut it?"
43465The voice and the extraordinary phraseology were familiar to the Mayburns, and Hugh cried out,"What, Bill, is that you?
43465They''re all broken, and what will Jenny say to me?"
43465Was n''t it a capital shot, Hugh?"
43465We''se be sure to have winter at some end; and had n''t we better bide here a bit till it''s past?"
43465Well, Davy, how are they getting on?"
43465Well, then, what are ye bound after in this queer craft?
43465What ails ye, you simpleton?
43465What are they about now, Hugh?"
43465What are we to do?
43465What are you going to do with these spars?"
43465What are you staring round in that fashion for?"
43465What can these ardent boys find to interest and amuse them in the arid and enfeebling plains of India?"
43465What could I do but just skirl and run?
43465What do you say, Arthur?"
43465What do you say, papa?"
43465What do you say?
43465What do you see?
43465What is yon fellow?
43465What like was she ye talked on, Miss?"
43465What say you, Margaret?"
43465What shall we do?
43465What think ye if we stirred from here?
43465What think you, sir, about it?"
43465What will become of Margaret and papa?"
43465What would become of us if any of these dangers assailed us?
43465What would you say, man, to a ball right through your ugly head?"
43465What''s come to t''lass now?"
43465Whatever can it be?
43465When Arthur saw this, he called out,"Haul taught and belay the ropes; and now, how shall we convey the weak to the shore, Wilkins?"
43465Where are your guns to pour down destruction on the foe, Master Gerald?"
43465Which of these puzzling alleys did we come through?"
43465Who is he?
43465Who''s to work''em?"
43465Why should we doubt?
43465Why should we not erect a simple hut, and dwell here in peace, abundance, and contentment, without toil and without care?
43465Why will men become hunters from mere wantonness?"
43465Wilkins stared at the enthusiastic naturalist, and, turning to Arthur, said,"Does he want us to land among them reefs, think ye?
43465Wilkins, my good man, do you think we are quite safe?"
43465Will I send an arrow among them, Arty?"
43465Will it be right, Margaret, to remove you and my promising boys from country, society, and home, perhaps even from civilization?"
43465Will this do, my lord?"
43465Will ye just say?
43465Will you go on deck with me for a few minutes?
43465Will you take up your whip and set off with our beasts to the station?"
43465Wilson?"
43465Wo n''t she get into some wonderful scrapes, Hugh?"
43465Would it be right to kill them?"
43465Would n''t we drub them like British heroes as we are?"
43465Would you mind guiding me; and Wilkins, may be, will go with us, to help me to carry down my ropes?"
43465Ye ken a deal of things, Miss Marget; can ye say what Peter was seeing afore him, when he yelled out, fleeing down into that black hole?"
43465You and I are pretty stout; can we not leave these feeble folks here, and go on to search for some relief for them?"
43465and have we not cups and plates which were once the abodes of the shell- fish?
43465and what miracle can have brought us together once more in these strange and wild mountains?"
43465and where is he?"
43465and who''s seen thee?"
43465answered Hugh,"and how could we find them again, man, among this brush?
43465asked Arthur, in a hurried tone:"and where is Gerald?"
43465can you get any water for poor Gerald?"
43465cried Mr. Mayburn,"why will you provoke the wrath of God by causing desolation and slaughter among his glorious works?
43465did you hear a rustling?"
43465exclaimed Ruth, weeping;"and could you have a heart to kill the poor dumb creatures as have lived wi''us so long?
43465from which he derives his name, and which sounds so strangely when mingled with the notes of the warblers?
43465half of our biggest rogues_ did_ know good from evil; and what of that?
43465it''s a grand thing to see, master,"said Wilkins;"but how are we to get out on our fix?
43465master, is''t true-- is''t a burning mountain?"
43465must we aim for it?"
43465my friend, what will you please to be looking after?"
43465not to feel that there must be a spiritual Ruler of the universe?"
43465said Mr. Mayburn,"how did it happen, my good lad, that you fell into the hands of that abandoned man?"
43465said Ruth,"did n''t I tell ye she were uncanny?
43465shrieked Ruth;"and my bonnie hens, and them poor pigeons?"
43465they''d kick these few shaking clogs to bits in no time: and then where are we?"
43465what are you about to do?
43465what has become of Arthur?''
43465what is our next step?"
43465what is the new discovery?"
43465what noise do I hear?"
43465what''s this?''
43465where is Wilkins, Jack?"
43465where''s I to get mair?"
43465whither shall we flee?
43465why is not Margaret with you?''"
56714After all, once we get back to Victoria we''ll be a long time there, wo n''t we?
56714Ai n''t I got the camels waiting, an''high time we was on the track? 56714 Am I, father?"
56714And Tinker, too?
56714And after that?
56714And ai n''t I busy?
56714And are you his sister?
56714And do they stay here always?
56714And do you really want him, Dick?
56714And his mother?
56714And how''s my friend Bobby?
56714And that in less than a week we''ll see father?
56714And that is no better?
56714And the governess?
56714And the operation?
56714And the operation?
56714And then?
56714And when do we go to own- truly home?
56714And you are sure it is false?
56714And you have n''t enough to keep the boy out of pain?
56714And you?
56714Any gold on this place?
56714Are the others going, Dick?
56714Are we to tell him?
56714Are you far out?
56714Are you fit to go, child?
56714Are you glad?
56714Are you going back to him soon?
56714Are you hurt? 56714 Are you not ashamed, Bobby?
56714Are you ready, Mrs. Lester? 56714 Are you rested, dear?"
56714Are you sure she went towards the Ten- Mile?
56714Are you?
56714Barbed wire, is it? 56714 Before you went to school?"
56714But are you doing nothing yourself?
56714But is it far?
56714But the operation was successful?
56714But what about their decorum, Miss Simpson?
56714But what are you doing here? 56714 But why should n''t she behave decently?
56714But why?
56714But you said it was a sleeper?
56714But you were n''t a''sand groper''yourself?
56714But, of course; is n''t he a bush baby?
56714Ca n''t Bobby?
56714Ca n''t we do anything? 56714 Ca n''t you do what they do with skin when they graft it?"
56714Ca n''t you take a bit of my spine? 56714 Can I help you, Dick?
56714Can I hold her?
56714Can any of your young men show us how they throw their weapons, Tarwan?
56714Can he get up to breakfast, do you think, nurse?
56714Can stock live on it at all?
56714Can you go after her?
56714Can you manage all those? 56714 Can you really take a car along here?"
56714Can you ride?
56714Coffee and rolls?
56714Coming down to see the blacks''camp, mother?
56714Coming out with the crowd?
56714Could I have a look round the ship first, father?
56714Could n''t you find out for me?
56714Dead?
56714Dick''s?
56714Dick, are you sure you feel all right?
56714Did anyone?
56714Did n''t you see her?
56714Did we get in all right? 56714 Did you bring your overcoat, Dick?"
56714Did you knock?
56714Did you square the doc.?
56714Did you think that was a raiding party?
56714Do n''t I tell you it''s all right?
56714Do n''t you think I''m well enough to try now?
56714Do they ever fight?
56714Do they shoot them?
56714Do they supply you with game?
56714Do you always have banquets like this when you come out on the run?
56714Do you belong in here?
56714Do you ever have any trouble?
56714Do you find them faithful?
56714Do you know which I''m to ride?
56714Do you let the blacks in here?
56714Do you mean to tell me,he asked,"that to- morrow you and I go to Adelaide and catch a steamer to meet father at Fremantle?"
56714Do you not think,she asked,"that the tuition of the useful arts should begin at a very much earlier age?"
56714Do you reflect, Dick,he said,"that we''ve been accustomed to think ourselves quite in the country at Kurrajong?"
56714Do you remember last time you said that?
56714Do you think I''d miss a chance of seeing you and the Boss again-- to say nothing of the nipper?
56714Do you think he''s really there?
56714Do you think we could refuse an invitation like that, Dickie?
56714Do you think,queried Nugent thoughtfully,"that there''s any tendency to string- halt?
56714Do you?
56714Does he only doctor spines?
56714Feel strong, old man?
56714Finished already, Dick? 56714 Finished?
56714Going to have lunch at Government House, by any chance?
56714Got them? 56714 Had a good trip?
56714Has he been long away? 56714 Has n''t he been looking after me ever since you went away?"
56714Have I?
56714Have they got many?
56714Having a bad time, old man?
56714He is lovely, is n''t he?
56714He was always a very devoted son, was n''t he?
56714He''s a darling, is n''t he?
56714How am I going to see Winnie?
56714How are the legs now, Bobby?
56714How did the dentist treat you?
56714How did you know?
56714How did you manage to learn things?
56714How long ago, Bobby?
56714How long is it since he was hurt?
56714How''s that, Merle? 56714 How''s that?"
56714Hurt you?
56714I am a doctor-- can I help you? 56714 I say, Mr. Cathcart, how''s old Danny?"
56714I say, could n''t we take her?
56714I say, do n''t the blacks ever try to steal the meat? 56714 I say, do you-- do you think it-- hurt them much?"
56714I say, doctor, do n''t you think it''s a trifle hard on a boy of that size to find he has drawn me in the lucky bag?
56714I say, father, what about Merle?
56714I say, is mother all right?
56714I say, mother-- am I getting better?
56714I say, mother-- can we go to the Orient office and ask about father''s boat?
56714I say, what about this father of yours? 56714 I say, what''s up?"
56714I say, why do n''t you knock off being one and be pals? 56714 I should n''t let you in for so much''shop,''should I?"
56714I suppose you know them, Dick?
56714I wonder how you will like food cooked in a respectable oven again?
56714I? 56714 I?"
56714In the morning?
56714Is anything wrong?
56714Is he taking any extra precautions?
56714Is it Dick? 56714 Is it Miss Merle?"
56714Is it that one you''d be putting on old Sergeant, now?
56714Is my daddy up?
56714Is n''t she a beauty?
56714Is n''t that Billy''s car?
56714Is the boy asleep?
56714Is the pain bad, Dick?
56714Is there any loophole?
56714Is this any good to you?
56714Is you the new boy?
56714Is your legs funny, too?
56714Is your mother awake?
56714Is yours a good one?
56714It is jolly, is n''t it?
56714It''s a pwetty tick- tick, is n''t it?
56714It''s not the spear wound? 56714 John, how long is it?"
56714John-- you are sure it is really sleep?
56714Legs?
56714Like to take it up on deck?
56714Look after Dick, will you?
56714Lunch with us at the club to- morrow, wo n''t you, Onslow? 56714 May I take him round the paddock?
56714May I?
56714Me?
56714Money is no good to them, I suppose?
56714Mother, is it all fixed?
56714Mother,Dick said,"will there be more doctors in Melbourne?--more overhauling like to- day?"
56714Mother-- my back is n''t broken?
56714Mother-- when?
56714Mrs. Lester,she said,"will you take me with you?"
56714Never any more?
56714No more shopping?
56714No one likes naughty boys like you,returned the lady, severely,"Will you come down, or must I pull you down?"
56714No trees at school?
56714Not bad, is he?
56714Not in a hurry, are you? 56714 Not matter?
56714Nothing more, sonnie?
56714Nothing very awful, though, Mother- est, how long are you going to be down?
56714Nothing''s wrong with her looks, is there, if only she did n''t seem so jolly cross?
56714Now, you gib it more soap?
56714Oh truly?
56714Oh, I do n''t think I could do without my old''Legs,''could I?
56714Oh, am I?
56714Oh, does n''t he?
56714Oh, mother, is n''t it awful?
56714Oh, please, would you tell me his name?
56714Out for an early walk, eh?
56714Out of a soap- dish lid?
56714Rather unusual in a black fellow, is n''t it?
56714Ready? 56714 Really?"
56714Seventeens, is n''t it, that you take?
56714Shall we go and speak to him?
56714Shall we go on? 56714 Should n''t what?"
56714Since Merle went? 56714 Sleep well?"
56714So Australia is still good enough for you?
56714So you''ll be gone until after the holidays? 56714 So you''re going to school?"
56714Steward,she said,"do you know which is Mr. Fraser''s cabin?"
56714Suppose you get on with the washing, Julia?
56714Sure you''re all right if I leave you?
56714Take her aisy, will ye? 56714 Take you, Merle?
56714That you, Merle? 56714 That you, Miss Merle?
56714That''s real nice, is n''t it?
56714Then why ever do n''t you come?
56714Then you place a cow before your daughter''s welfare?
56714There now--''tis nice an''comfortin''against that hot place, is n''t it, my beauty?
56714They killed him?
56714They take some beating, do n''t they?
56714This chap''s not too bad, either, is he? 56714 This is Narrung Downs?
56714Tired?
56714Wa- al, of course he thinks he''s going to be a sailor-- all boys do, do n''t they?
56714Want to be going with them, old son?
56714Want to come?
56714Was Tinker all right?
56714Was he in a wax?
56714Was it very bad, Billy?
56714We might send the cart out to meet us at Gaffney''s Lagoon, and have lunch there-- it''s as good a place as any, is n''t it?
56714We''re getting near Murray Bridge, mother-- aren''t you going to have a look at the Murray?
56714Well, did''e get here all right?
56714Well, if you wo n''t, how about some tennis? 56714 Well, shall we have a look round now?"
56714Well, what is it, anyhow?
56714Well, young man, and how have you been getting on? 56714 Well-- if I was?"
56714Were n''t you an ass? 56714 Were you in bed?"
56714Were you looking for anyone?
56714What about moving him?
56714What are all these for?
56714What are we to do?
56714What did you say to him this morning? 56714 What did your faver do?"
56714What do I send you to school for?
56714What do the men do?
56714What do you think, Jean? 56714 What for?"
56714What have you been doing to deserve a licking, you bad boy?
56714What have you been doing with him, Mrs. Lester? 56714 What is he going to be?"
56714What is it, my son? 56714 What sort of bosh?"
56714What you done with''em, Jacky?
56714What''s annoyed her, Dick?
56714What''s decorum?
56714What''s that for, steward?
56714What''s that?
56714What''s that?
56714What''s the matter?
56714What''s up, Merle? 56714 What''s up, father?
56714What''s wrong with Dick''s?
56714What''s your number, sonny? 56714 What, dressed, old man?"
56714What-- have you one waiting? 56714 Whatever is the matter with you?
56714Whatever would father say? 56714 When am I going to sit up?"
56714When can we see him?
56714When do you think we can move him to Melbourne?
56714When you begin to tell calumnious stories about my nation, it''s time we went, is n''t it, mother?
56714When''s yours coming?
56714When?
56714Where are the other horses?
56714Where are we going, Daddy?
56714Where have n''t they hunted for it in Western Australia? 56714 Where have you been?
56714Where''s Dick?
56714Where''s the twinses?
56714Where''s you goin'', Merle?
56714Where?--throw Dick?
56714Who by?
56714Who is his new friend, captain?
56714Who? 56714 Whose father?"
56714Why did you want me?
56714Why do they call it Tailem Bend?
56714Why do you say it in that way, John?
56714Why not telephone?
56714Why not?
56714Why on earth----?
56714Why, Mrs. Lester-- what luck?
56714Why?
56714Will you come to our cabin for a little?
56714Will you do it on the ship?
56714Will you go and just look at him?
56714Will you just go on being patient, Dick?
56714Will you require anything further, madam?
56714Will you ride Conqueror, daddy?
56714Will you tell me,she begged,"if you would advise us to have it done?"
56714Will you undertake Dick?
56714Wonder if that''s our boat?
56714Would n''t you let me come, just for a bit, to work for you-- to help you to look after Dick? 56714 Would you care to look at him?"
56714Would you like to come up into the back country, Dick?
56714You all right, Dick? 56714 You are very glad to be back?"
56714You do n''t feel anxious on a quiet horse, do you?
56714You do n''t know the West?
56714You do n''t know''is number, by any chance?
56714You have n''t told the mother yet?
56714You want her, Dick?
56714You wo n''t mind?
56714You would not tell him yet?
56714You''d tell me-- straight?
56714You''re not really worried about the blacks, Robert?
56714''Ca n''t you put me to sleep, doctor?''
56714''Is it kick?''
56714A drink?"
56714A quarter- master came over to him and inquired,"All right, this morning, after your swim?"
56714A steward gave him tea, and asked feelingly"how he was keeping?"
56714Am I going to die?"
56714Am I going to meet him?"
56714And did you see Dick''s shoulder?
56714And have you many, sir, at your own place?"
56714And is the Boss back?"
56714And where''s Perth?"
56714And you''ll let me know when you''re coming through?"
56714Are you sure your Scot was n''t an Irishman, Lester?"
56714Are you sure?"
56714Before them lay new happiness or despair-- which?
56714Behind Dick''s back he asked Mr. Lester in an undertone:"Is that the small boy who''s been diving off the_ Moondarra_?"
56714Bobby, man, do you see we''re nearly home?"
56714But it would n''t have fitted in with your ideal of decorum, would it?"
56714But what am I to do?"
56714Ca n''t we fight?"
56714Can you get it over quickly, Fraser?"
56714Can yours jump?"
56714Conqueror would never face them, and once he turned, wheeling back among the trees, what chance had they?
56714Could ye bathe him now, Master Dick?
56714Could your father do that?"
56714D''you think I do n''t know what I''ve done?"
56714Dick, can you find a telegraph office here?"
56714Dick?"
56714Did Merle desert you?"
56714Did n''t you meet Merle?"
56714Did she show you all round?"
56714Did the steward strap up your trunks?"
56714Did you know it was such a big river, mother?"
56714Did you like it, mother?"
56714Did you sleep well?"
56714Do you think it''s workable?"
56714Got anyone with you?"
56714Had a good run round Adelaide?"
56714Have n''t we, Merle?"
56714Have some more cake?"
56714Have you finished?"
56714He asked you, of course?"
56714He said,''Where y''goin''Bill?''
56714How are the cattle looking, Downes?"
56714How could a man of his build fail to snore, may I ask?"
56714How could he tell her?
56714How is your tennis?"
56714How many teeth has he?"
56714How to find words to shatter the hopes and the joy that thirteen years had built up so happily?
56714How''d you like to come and sleep in this spare bed?
56714Hullo, is that you, Warner?"
56714I know the manager here, Mr. Lester; would you care to go round with me and arrange matters?"
56714I say, can I open ve parcel for you?
56714I''d better scoot, had n''t I?"
56714Is Merle hurt?"
56714Is he too big to be hugged, do you think, mother?"
56714Is it as bad, mother?"
56714Is it loaded?"
56714Is there a horse in?
56714Is you?"
56714Is your luggage on board?"
56714It was a queer prayer; but who shall say that it did not go straight upwards?
56714Lester?"
56714Lester?"
56714Lester?"
56714Like a cup of tea?"
56714Like to come, Dick?"
56714Macleay?"
56714Makes you feel small, does n''t it, father?"
56714May we take that nice fat Bobby?--and Merle?"
56714Merle, how are you at fire fighting?"
56714Might as well let her, do n''t you think?"
56714Must you really go?"
56714My dear child, how could we?"
56714Not that you care much, when he''s your only boy, whether he''s got brains or not, do you, ma''am?"
56714Now how about getting up to Perth?"
56714Now which is it?"
56714Now, which is your mark, I wonder?"
56714Oh, could n''t I come, just as Dick''s legs?"
56714Oh, mother- est, are we going?"
56714Oh-- cocoa?
56714Others peered from the platform through their windows, and a heated lady asked anxiously,"Is that you, Willie dear?"
56714Pound him to- night in the dormer for me, Nuge, will you?
56714Seriously, Miss Simpson, you would n''t see an animal choke to death rather than upset decorum, would you?
56714Shall I go after cars?"
56714Shall we come up and see Dick?"
56714Shall we go?"
56714Somewhat to her surprise, however, she found herself making further conversation:"You glad we''re gettin''in to- day?"
56714Sure you can manage?"
56714Sure you have n''t lost a trunk or two?"
56714Sure you''re not?"
56714The Bishop, extraordinarily human in pyjamas and a short dressing- gown, patted him on the back and said,"Feel all right, old man?"
56714There''ll be plenty of work for them, wo n''t there, father?"
56714There, however, he met the captain, who patted him on the head, and said,"Good kid; where did you pick up high diving?"
56714Thirty- seven?
56714This dead weight on his back, that neither spoke, nor moved, nor guided him-- what was it?
56714Unknown terrors of the future, that he would not tell even to her?
56714Warner?"
56714Warner?"
56714Was it a time to cheer?
56714Was it very cold?
56714Well, Mrs. Lester, have you seen enough of the gentle aborigine for to- day?"
56714Well, Mrs. Lester, may I get the car now?--or, wait a minute, you look a bit tired; how about a cup of tea first?
56714Well, shall we go and get the car, and come back here for your mother?"
56714Well, where to now?"
56714Were there fears in his brave heart?
56714What are you up to?"
56714What did he think of?
56714What do you mean?"
56714What do you think of our plan?"
56714What do you think of our store, Maister Lester?"
56714What on earth am I going to do?"
56714What shall we give Dick?"
56714What''s the good of a name like that?
56714What''s the matter?"
56714What''s wrong?"
56714What, may I ask, will be your daughter''s future?"
56714When will that be, doctor?"
56714Where are you?"
56714Where is he?"
56714Where''s you goin'', Dick?"
56714Where?"
56714Who?
56714Why are n''t you in the wilds, earning your living?"
56714Why do n''t you join in?"
56714Why do people get born like that?"
56714Why do you have to be nourished when you''re ill, and not fed?"
56714Why not have a run in the hills?
56714Why should she be saddled with his entertainment?
56714Why should she not take him out?
56714Why you could n''t keep me flatter if my silly back was broken!--and you said it was n''t, did n''t you, mother?"
56714Will he suffer?
56714Will you be glad, old son?"
56714Wonder if he could do your boy any good, Mrs. Lester?
56714Would you like to go?"
56714You did n''t expect her down, did you?"
56714You do n''t mind camping, mother?"
56714You do n''t want to leave me behind, do you?"
56714You were n''t behind the door when they served out bad tempers, anyhow, were you?"
56714You wo n''t mind, Dick, if it''s to make you better?"
56714You would n''t mind, would you?"
56714You''d like it, Dick?"
56714how will you manage?"
56714let Bottles and Nuge and Teddy come to see me, do you think, mother?"
