318I never let on that I''d heard, but PROUD?
318Money-- I could sleep in only one bed at a time, and of what worth was an income of a hundred porterhouses a day when I could eat only one?
318Now why did I do this?

318Was I any the less strong, any the less valiant, than the harpooner and the sailor?
318Was I expected to kiss her?
318Was it because I was too happy?
318Was it because I was too strong?

318Well, it was the way of men, and who was I, just turned seventeen, that I should decline the way of life of these fine, chesty, man- grown men?

35866How''s things?
35866Hurt?
35866I know you''re all right; I know you mean what you say; but ai n''t it a shame that when a man''s down our first thought is to kick him? 35866 I thought all along you were interested in the horse; not that you cared about knowing me--""Did you really think that?"
35866I wonder if you like that as well as I do?
35866In other words, think it''s now or never?
35866In three days?

35866Why do you keep me at this?
35866Why is it that the thirst calls so loudly when I think of that girl?
35866Why should n''t I be?
35866Why? 35866 Why?"
35866Will I be missed?
35866Will it always be so?
35866Will you ever say it again-- that you do n''t want me?
35866Wo n''t some horse come to challenge him some day and batter him down and make defeat all the more bitter because of the supremacy he has enjoyed? 35866 Would n''t it be slick,"Jed wanted to know,"if we was all fixed like th''feller who makes th''days?
35866You know the way to the Thorpe Ranch?
35866You lookin''for somebody?
35866You mean you want that much worth of ticket?
35866You never want to go back?
35866You think it''s a good thing, then, for a man to get close to himself?
35866You''re not starting?
35866You-- Why, what can I say to you? 35866 You-- you do n''t think I fail to value this friendship of ours?"
35866Your lust for freedom has come to this end; why ca n''t my impulses to be a wild beast be driven into another path?
35866Yours?
35866_ Work?_ Do n''t tell me you work that animal!
35866After a moment he extended an indicating finger and asked:"Is that all of Colt-- Colt, Colorado?"
35866Ai n''t it a shame th''way men are wasted just by bein''born out of place?"
35866Ai n''t it rotten?"
35866An end for which he was thankful?
35866An''I did, did n''t I?
35866An''if th''first time went wrong it was-- profitable, was n''t it?"
35866And be sure to fasten the door so he will not get out?"
35866And he had been there how long?
35866And put him in the barn?
35866And was the result of his wasting quite irreparable?
35866And what was it?
35866Anybody tried to ride him?"
35866Are n''t you coming in to shake hands?"
35866As she was leaving, she asked,"Why do n''t you come down to the dance Friday night?"
35866As they stood in the doorway in a midst of repartee she burst on him:"Mr. VB, why do you go about with that awful name?
35866Avery?"
35866Away from New York?
35866Away from me?
35866Burnin''away there, corkin''up th''bottle, givin''us light so we can see?"
35866But I got him, did n''t I?"
35866But I-- what do I know about my own capabilities?"
35866But do n''t you see what this bottle''s for?
35866But he did hear the voice-- drawling, nasty, jeering:"Was you considerin''havin''a bit o''refreshment, stranger?"
35866But say-- ain''t that some booze?"
35866But were not his impulses carrying him?
35866Ca n''t it be given to some one else?"
35866Ca n''t you?"
35866Can I do your work?
35866Can you eat?
35866Can you ride?"
35866Can you?"
35866Danny looked quickly at his interrogator then and asked:"How did you know?"
35866Did you ever stop to think that of all th''strong things us men has knowed about somethin''has always turned up to be a little bit stronger?
35866Do n''t you believe that?
35866Do n''t you realize that?
35866Do n''t you see that candle?
35866Do n''t you see?"
35866Do n''t you?"
35866Do you think, Captain, that I can ever match up with you two?"
35866Ever do it?"
35866For had not VB gloried in that ride to Ranger?
35866Had it not been all conscious, witting, planned?
35866Had it not been the end of all things for him?
35866Have you seen anything you like?"
35866He looked on the other a moment, then asked:"What time did VB get home last night?"
35866He might scatter the band, but what of it?
35866His will-- did he have a will?
35866How do you know I''m worth even a meal?"
35866I like it an''can make a livin''at it, so why should I go into cattle?
35866I love''em, but I guess-- well--""You''ve been educated away from''em, you mean?"
35866I ought to get work right away, ought n''t I?"
35866If he gits away, what chance we got?
35866If he should be whipped and a surrender be forced?
35866If he''d had a gun he''d done fer us''n there, would n''t he?"
35866Is n''t he the wild stallion?"
35866Is that it?"
35866Is there no way out?"
35866Jed?
35866Might it not be something else-- a passing hysteria, a reaction from the inner battle?
35866No?
35866Now-- what will you take to get out?"
35866Oh, boy, will you forgive?
35866Out of my sight-- out of my way?"
35866Out of your_ way_?"
35866Reach the ranch?
35866See the light?"
35866Seven- fifty?
35866Sha n''t I be able to stand and fight and triumph, merely raging because it dares tempt me instead of fearing this thing itself?"
35866She looked for what seemed to be an unnecessarily long time at her watch, and then asked:"Is that his name?"
35866She was again mistress of the situation and said:"Well, are you ever going to tell me about yourself?"
35866Sleepy?"
35866So he asked just this question:"How long?"
35866So why hold off?
35866That''s something to set up as a goal, is n''t it?
35866The thought was: Is her hair as fragrant as it is glorious in color and texture?
35866Then asked again:"Do n''t you believe that?"
35866Then came the question, popping its way through unwilling, tight lips:"Shall I light th''candle, Young VB?"
35866Then he muttered:"Why did n''t she send it to Jed-- or to the Captain?"
35866Then the man spoke:"Long ways from home, ai n''t you?"
35866Then, in a half tone,"You do n''t mean you suspected VB?
35866They both laughed, and Gail said:"So this country has n''t taken the flattery out of you?"
35866To go where?"
35866To the place of Señor Rhues?
35866Understand?"
35866VB?"
35866VB?"
35866Was all that really so very far away?
35866Was he not rebuilding what he had torn down?
35866Was it not his first impulse to go on with the fight?
35866Was not the distance just that between them and the big ranch house under the cotton woods beyond the hills?
35866We''ll bust him wide open, wo n''t we?
35866Well, how much?"
35866What have you done?
35866What then?
35866What was there?
35866What''s his name?"
35866What?
35866When Jed came into the cabin VB asked him, as though it were a matter of great concern:"Where''s that calendar we had around here?"
35866Where now?
35866Where then?
35866While Rhues sought his body did not another viper seek his soul?
35866Who else-- that young animal- tamer, VB?"
35866Who knows?"
35866Why battle longer?
35866Why delay?
35866Why did you-- quit?"
35866Why do n''t you come to see me?
35866Why do n''t you want to eat?"
35866Why hold off?
35866Why not?
35866Why refuse?
35866Why should I?"
35866Why-- is this?"
35866Why?
35866Why?
35866Why?
35866Why?"
35866Will you excuse me?
35866Will you take the horse away?
35866Won''t-- won''t you tell me?
35866Would it then be-- worth the candle?"
35866Would n''t it surely come some time?
35866You had your polo string and the ability to play a great game, but what came of it?
35866You light th''candle, will you?
35866You understand?"
35866the insidious self argued, why not?
41139''For ever? 41139 ''The pig is in the hammock?''"
41139''Thy will be done''--what_ did_ come after? 41139 ''What difference_ does_ it make?''"
41139About Dorothy?
41139And he has cured himself?
41139And his physical condition?
41139And it means exactly, you would say--?
41139And now what are you going to do?
41139And now,said the clergyman,"have you seen anything of the village yet?"
41139And that is?
41139And the Metropole at Brighton?
41139And the end?
41139And then?
41139And then?
41139And what did you say, Dicker?
41139And what of our friend the Poet?
41139And what was that?
41139And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger?
41139And why?
41139And will you tell me then, Miss Harrison?
41139And you are going to see him_ to- night_, John?
41139And you like it?
41139Are you there, sir?
41139Are you unhappy, dearest?
41139Aristocracy?
41139But he_ was_ cured?
41139But how did it happen?
41139But how friends? 41139 But surely one could get it_ here_?"
41139But the patient was made happier?
41139But there are a dozen questions I want to ask you-- and my own case?
41139But there are such things as letters are n''t there?
41139But where are the Toftrees?
41139But who is Mr. Dickson Ingworth? 41139 But you could n''t have been very bad?"
41139But, dear, what by?
41139Can I go up to him, cook? 41139 Can I see you then, Mum?"
41139Conduct?
41139Cupid? 41139 Did he?
41139Did n''t you know?
41139Did you?
41139Do n''t you think so, Toftrees?
41139Do you care for me more than for any other man you have ever met?
41139Do you mind if I leave you for an hour or two, dear?
41139Dost thou remember our old ecstasy?
41139Doth thy heart beat at my sole name alway? 41139 Elsie, go into the lounge and ask Miss Palmer for a little brandy and water-- but what took you like this?"
41139For ever?
41139Forbid them to marry?
41139Gilbert, have you come to say goodnight?
41139Gilbert?
41139Good news by this post, Dicker?
41139Got his_ knife into me_?
41139Had n''t you better have a pipe? 41139 Has he been writing to you, then?"
41139Have you been happy, sweetheart, with me?
41139Have you got what you came to get?
41139Have you no idea, can not you guess what it is that I have come to say to you?
41139Have you such low ideals that you think friendship between a man and a woman impossible? 41139 He has absolutely refused to see the Chaplain?
41139He has published nothing?
41139How are you feeling, darling? 41139 How are you, Gilbert?"
41139How can you ask it? 41139 How could I possibly?"
41139How could you possibly have helped it?--You''ll take steps--?
41139How dare you say such a thing to me, sir?
41139How do I look, Wog dear?
41139How frightful,she said, growing rather pale;"but why, John?
41139How often do two people meet as you and I have met? 41139 How so?"
41139I do n''t understand you, Ethel,she said in a voice which was so cold and unusual that the other girl was dumb.--"What on earth do you mean?"
41139I know,Gilbert answered,"but why do you say so?"
41139I say, Mr. Toftrees, is n''t Gilbert splendid? 41139 I say,"he remarked,"did you enjoy your trip to Brighton with Rita Wallace?
41139I wonder if Toftrees is right and his reputation is going down and people are beginning to find out about him?
41139I wonder why?
41139I''d be your wife, Gilbert, and I''d love you-- oh, what shall I do without you? 41139 I''m going to have a liqueur brandy,"Toftrees said hastily-- he had taken nothing the whole evening--"won''t you, too?"
41139I? 41139 I?
41139I_ beg_ your pardon?
41139If this man knew so much, a wizard who saw into the secret places of the mind, what more might he not know?
41139Is that done then? 41139 It is so kind of you to come, Doctor,"she said.--"Then that deep spasmodic breathing-- he has not really hurt his head?"
41139Managed it?
41139May I ask, Sir Edward,he said,"if you were referring just now to Hancock, the Hackney murderer?"
41139May I have a cigarette?
41139May I?
41139Milton, Shakespeare and the Bible?
41139Molly, may I have a cigarette?
41139My dear old chap,the lad replied hastily-- too hastily--"don''t I know?"
41139No?
41139Now tell me, Dicker,Lothian said, lighting a cigarette,"how do you mean about Toftrees?"
41139Now, then,he said,"what''s all this?
41139Of use?
41139Oh, Gilbert dear, what is the surprise?
41139Rather dangerous, was n''t it?
41139Rather unusual for you, is n''t it? 41139 Really?
41139Rita, my darling, say, if things had been different, if I were free to ask you to be my wife now, would you marry me?
41139Shall I leave the dog, sir?
41139She got my wire?
41139Something amusing you?
41139Suppose your wife got to know, Gilbert?
41139Surely a young and lovely girl like Rita_ ca n''t_ care for him?
41139Surgit amari aliquid?
41139Tell me,she was saying,"have you heard or found out anything of Gilbert Lothian, the poet?"
41139Teucro auspice, auspice Teucro?
41139That is so?
41139The commandments of convention mean nothing to you?
41139The whiskey man?
41139The whole village is asleep now, save only me, and I am trying to reconstruct our afternoon and evening together, five days ago or was it six? 41139 Then I suppose you''ll give up literature?"
41139Then even the doctors are coming round?
41139Then everything is for the best, in the best of all possible worlds?
41139Then when do you think he will talk to Rit-- to Miss Wallace?
41139Then why did n''t you drive, Gilbert?
41139Then you can solve the mystery?
41139There is no hitch, I suppose?
41139This''ere accident, sir?
41139To- night?
41139Too late for_ what_?
41139Too late?
41139Unhappy, Gilbert? 41139 Was I very far gone?"
41139We must n''t spoil it, must we, Lulu bird?
41139Well, Dicker?
41139Well, what do you think?
41139Well, what will the title of the Toftrees''next novel be?
41139What are they, flappers?
41139What are we going to do now?
41139What are you afraid of?--of compromising yourself? 41139 What are you going to do, my girl?"
41139What did you think?
41139What difference_ does_ it make?
41139What do you mean, Rita?
41139What gun?
41139What in heaven''s name did you go off like that for? 41139 What is it, Tumpany?"
41139What is it, dear?
41139What is it? 41139 What is this?"
41139What will you give?
41139What would Mrs. Lothian think of your bringing me here to dinner?
41139What''s it going to be, Gilbert?
41139What''s wrong with him?
41139What, Gilbert?
41139What-- Gilbert?
41139What? 41139 What?
41139Where is Tumpany, Blanche?
41139Where shall I go now?
41139Where shall I go?
41139Where shall we go, Gilbert?
41139Where''s master, then?
41139Wherefore should I possess that memory?
41139Who lives round about?
41139Who told you?
41139Who were your father and mother?
41139Whose is that?
41139Why did n''t you have one of my guns? 41139 Why did you ask me to come here, Hancock?"
41139Why did you say that?
41139Why should they put him here with the King and the Queen? 41139 Why, indeed?
41139Why, indeed?
41139Why?
41139Will it be of use, sir?
41139Will you require me any more, sir?
41139Wo n''t you have another cigarette, Miss Wallace?
41139Would you be my dear, dear love, as I yours, for ever and ever and ever?
41139Yes, dear,--it_ was_ an odd purring sort of voice--"How do you feel?"
41139Yes, did n''t you know? 41139 Yes, here I am, Condon, what is it?"
41139Yes, yes, but_ whom_ has my little Rita married?
41139Yes,he whispered,"but how did you know, Sims?"
41139Yes? 41139 Yes?
41139Yes?
41139Yes?
41139Yes?
41139You anticipate no trouble?--how is he?
41139You are happy?
41139You do n''t come to town often, do you?
41139You have done some literary work, have you not?
41139You have your letter I suppose?
41139You know Mr. Lothian very well, I suppose?
41139You know?
41139You really do care for me?
41139You rowed then?
41139You think that?
41139You will be all right?
41139You will, wo n''t you, dear? 41139 You''re to see this Podley to- night?"
41139_ Married?_ Rita?
41139_ Married?_ Rita?
41139_ Married?_ Rita?
41139_ Married?_ Rita?
41139''John''!--Our men in America are not very often like that-- but what, what is the Bishop saying?"
41139''Why does Gilbert strike this note of the''cello and the big sobbing flutes at the very beginning of things?''
41139--The hunter was on the trail now, Heredity?
41139--Were any of the old set there after all?
41139--Who sings such Isabels to- day?
41139?
41139?
41139?
41139?"
41139A little worker- bee saint, making a milk pudding for a sick washerwoman on a gas- stove in a flat-- that comes rather too close home, does it not?
41139Am I to come, sir?"
41139Amberley?"
41139And he really is interested?"
41139And how would you end the story?
41139And if this, in all its horror, is not true demoniacal possession, what else is?
41139And may we, oh, may we have a lobster mayonnaise for dinner?"
41139And shall Boots go down for her trunk?"
41139And so much depends upon the patient in all illnesses-- doesn''t it?
41139And what had he done after all?
41139And what is our life?
41139And what''s that you''re holding out to me on your pale hand?
41139And who could live for ever upon honey- comb?
41139And why should you?"
41139And_ did_ one bow?
41139Are you entirely fettered by convention and silly old puritanical nonsense?
41139Are you forced to go?"
41139Are you here all alone, does nobody ever come here?
41139At the edge of what abysmal precipice, and the end of what sombre perspective of Fate was he standing?
41139Awfully clever, do n''t you think, to get hold of such an enormous public?
41139But I may have a cigarette, Molly?"
41139But I tire you?"
41139But because David was a murderer and an adulterer will you tell me that the psalms are insincere?
41139But had he come back to the Old House?
41139But here?
41139But how about Moultrie?
41139But if he does, what''s the use of worrying?
41139But is n''t he wonderful?"
41139But there are times when one really must speak, whatever the past may have been-- aren''t there?"
41139But those two special rods I had made at Tolley''s-- where are they?"
41139But to take charge of a public library-- oh, Mrs. Podley,_ do_ you think I shall be able to do it to Mr. Podley''s satisfaction?"
41139But what do you think?"
41139But what is it exactly?"
41139But what is the_ individual_ cure?
41139But which story have you read, Mary?"
41139But why have you got on a sheet instead of a nightdress?
41139But why''s the doctor coming?
41139But will the list be scrutinised before the books are actually bought?
41139But wo n''t you have something to eat?"
41139But you ca n''t have?"
41139But your conclusion is--?"
41139CHAPTER III SHAME IN"THE ROARING GALLANT TOWN"--"Is it for this I have given away Mine ancient wisdom and austere control?"
41139CHAPTER III THIRST"_ A little, passionately, not at all?_"She casts the snowy petals on the air.
41139Can we go, Gilbert?
41139Can you suppose that your condition is not an open book to_ me_?
41139Could he save this man?
41139Could it possibly be that his friend had a touch of the tar- brush somewhere?
41139Daly?"
41139Did a whole sord of mallard come over, or were those three stragglers?"
41139Did he fall on his head?"
41139Did the angry blood which suffused the cheeks give them a dusky tinge which was not of Europe?
41139Did the horse come right down?"
41139Did the lips really grow thicker?
41139Did they never crave for madder music and stronger wine?
41139Do I look very bad?"
41139Do n''t I have two every day myself-- since you got me into the habit?
41139Do n''t you like his work?"
41139Do they just plant their figures anywhere in this show?"
41139Do you collect autographs then?"
41139Do you realise who I am at all-- in any way?
41139Do you?"
41139Dorothy is dying, Gillie, I ca n''t let her die alone, can I?"
41139General principles were alone vouchsafed-- indeed who shall blame the tradesman for an adroit refusal to give away the secrets of the shop?
41139Gilbert?"
41139Had he arranged it beforehand, itching to be free of her gentle yoke, her wise, restraining hand?
41139Had he known that he was to be called to London?
41139Has something come off, Dicker, then?
41139Have n''t I been kissing you as much as ever I wanted to for the last three days?
41139Have n''t you just been boasting about feeling so much better?
41139Have n''t you kissed me?
41139Have you news of the poet?"
41139Have you really anything to say?
41139Have you seen him often, then?
41139Have you studied the end yet?"
41139He began to gabble the Lord''s Prayer-- that would adjust things in a sort of way-- wouldn''t it?
41139He has never suffered from that?"
41139He is alive, I suppose?"
41139His wife''s love and care-- was not that losing its savour also?
41139Horrible?
41139How could I be?"
41139How could he throw the sleepy, stagnant, comfortable town into a turmoil and disorder in which souls might be definitely lost for ever?
41139How does it concern you?
41139How else but through a broken heart May Lord Christ enter in?"
41139How else may man make straight his plan And cleanse his soul from sin?
41139However shall I do without you?"
41139I do n''t like the name, shall I enter it up or not?"
41139I hear you say-- by the way, Rita, where did you learn to speak such perfect French?
41139I hope it does n''t mean that one''s faith is weak, to long for a sympathetic and confirming voice?"
41139I mean, you sleep into the morning a little now, do n''t you?"
41139I must go-- mustn''t I?"
41139I suppose you saw he was rather off when the ladies had gone and you were talking to him?"
41139I wonder if other men who drink know this heavy, unceasing slavery which makes the commonest actions of life a burden?
41139I wonder why?"
41139If it amused her to have wine at five pounds a bottle, what on earth did it matter?
41139Immoral?
41139Instead of that, the question he asked himself was,"What shall I do now?"
41139Is he resigned?"
41139Is my art nothing to you?
41139Is that the_ membrane_?
41139Is the boy a genius then?"
41139Is there none, then?
41139It completes the picture, does it not?"
41139It was higher in key than usual-- whom was she speaking to?
41139It''s your chance at last, is n''t it?"
41139Just one more with me before you go?"
41139Keep quiet, ca n''t you?"
41139Lothian is not here then?"
41139Lothian--?"
41139Lothian?"
41139Lothian?"
41139Lothian?"
41139Lothian?"
41139Lothian?"
41139Lothian?"
41139Master said good- bye to Mistress last night, did n''t he?"
41139May I come in?--she got my wire?"
41139Meanwhile, for a short time, life was entrancing, and why worry about the day after to- morrow?
41139Medley?"
41139Morton Sims was telling us so the other night, you remember?
41139Muriel and I always used to smoke at school-- it does n''t matter about telling now, does it?"
41139My soup?"
41139Now tell me honestly, was it very noticeable?--what did they say?"
41139Now what do you say, Dr. Morton Sims, to a little progress through the village with me?
41139Oh, surely if it is a disease it can be cured?
41139On the sensual side there''s no sense of indulging in a pleasurable self- gratification?"
41139Perhaps, who can say?
41139Put me into communication with the house agents, will you, O''Donnell?"
41139Reversion?
41139Rita!--damn you,_ ca n''t_ you keep quiet?
41139Rita,_ does his wife know_?"
41139Shall I go and let him out?"
41139Shall I tell him to drive round?"
41139Should he write a note to Mary at home?
41139So it does n''t matter, does it?"
41139Some one, was it not rather_ something_?
41139Still dost thou see my soul in visions?"
41139Surely, even now, there will be some people I know there?
41139The bell whirred-- ring, ring, ring-- was there not something exultant in the shrill purring of the bell?
41139The curse of the world!--how long, how long?"
41139The skin, surely it_ had_ been oddly blotched?
41139The smile was sweet and simple, there was a freakish humour in the eyes,--"Well, Dicker?"
41139The''Craving''and all that?"
41139They could n''t have seen-- or_ could_ they?
41139Toftrees?"
41139Was Tumpany fluffed?"
41139Was he, well, was he quite himself should you think?"
41139Was it Gilbert Lothian, the young and kindly- natured man who reverenced all things that were pure, beautiful and of good report?
41139Was it then the few recent administrations of poison that had changed him so terribly, brought him to this?
41139Was it, he wondered, the old story of benefits forgot, the natural instinct of the baser type of humanity to bite the hand that feeds?
41139Was n''t it rather like a scene upon the stage?
41139Was n''t my veins swollen with drink from the first?
41139Was that the reason that he had been so affectionate the day before he went away?
41139Was there much comment?
41139Was this, then, what one learnt at Eton?
41139We have been tremendous friends, and though we shall never meet again, we shall always think of each other, sha n''t we?
41139Well, you need n''t have any more to do with him, need you?
41139Were drunkards to be allowed to have children without State restriction, or were they not?
41139What about my blood now?
41139What can you have to do with him?"
41139What did he know about her?
41139What do you want to say to me?
41139What does it say about him?"
41139What had made him come to see her after all?--a mere whim doubtless-- but was he not about to reap a very delightful harvest?
41139What has he done?--he is quite good- looking, do n''t you think?"
41139What have you got there-- oh?
41139What impious interference with the laws of God was this?
41139What is it, American millionaire?
41139What is it, Rita?"
41139What is your remedy, Dr. Morton Sims?"
41139What memory, which would not come, was it trying to evoke?
41139What more does the precise scientific language of those who study the psychology of the inebriate mean than"He was possessed of a Devil"?
41139What rare maiden was this with whom he was chatting?
41139What sort of a man is he?"
41139What was this that had come into the library, what new disturbing, insistent element?
41139What were you using?"
41139What''s all this, sir?
41139What?
41139What_ was_ the scent?
41139When do you go?"
41139Where in the world have_ you_ sprung from, my dear boy?"
41139Where is she?"
41139Where''s Rita?
41139Which is best; to live safe because strong, or to tremble behind fortifications; to be temperate by Nature or sober by Law?"
41139Who can say?
41139Who can tell?
41139Who does not know them, these comfortable, respectable hotels in the High Streets or Market Places of small country towns?
41139Who hears the sobs or sees the tears shed by the secret army of Slaves to the Slaves of Alcohol?
41139Who more likely then than by those who are in social contact with him?"
41139Who shall weigh out the measures but God?
41139Who should say, who could define, the true responsibility of the man they were killing up there on the North London Hill?
41139Who was he, who was any one in life, to imagine that his views were known to all the world?
41139Who was to attempt to preserve_ les convenances_ with such a delightful child as this?
41139Why Cupid?"
41139Why did n''t you give her a ham?"
41139Why did thoughts like these come into the flower garden?
41139Why have they tied your face up under the chin with that handkerchief?
41139Why should a mere little comic man be set to intrude--?"
41139Why should n''t he, poor boy, if it made him happy?
41139Why the devil did n''t you take the ten- bore?"
41139Why was it possible that men might poison themselves so?
41139Why waste time?
41139Why?
41139Will not that be delightful, Rita mia amica?
41139Will you see him?
41139Will you take it from your friend?
41139With you?
41139Wo n''t this Podley man take another opinion?"
41139Would all the efforts of himself and his friends ever make such monstrous happenings cease?
41139Would n''t she be angry if he asked her?
41139Would the tongue loll out soon?
41139Would you mind putting his bed- room slippers on, sir?
41139Would you mind?"
41139Yes?"
41139Yes?"
41139Yet what had happened in his own house?
41139Yet who has pointed the discovering finger at them or drawn attention to the smug and_ convenable_ curses that they are?
41139You do n''t mind my leaving you?"
41139You have heard from Edith?"
41139You heard him with Mr. Amberley just now?
41139You know the twelfth of course?
41139You like him, do n''t you?"
41139You never heard me play did you?
41139You quite understand?"
41139You remember that night I was home so late, nearly a month ago?
41139You''ll be rather at a loose end without your wife, wo n''t you?--or will you write?"
41139You''ll take Trust?
41139You''re rather early in coming, are you not?"
41139You''ve no''craving''for alcohol I expect?
41139You_ would_ be my wife if I were free?"
41139_ Like_ him?
41139_ What_ was it,_ who_ was it, that was writing in the bed?
41139_ Why_ would n''t he?
41139_ you_ ought to know-- you with your job to know--_Now_ are you happy?
41139at least life had given him this and was it not the treasure of treasures?
41139at once?
41139get out of everything?"
41139he cried,"how the deuce did you get those?"
41139he said,"what on earth is the use of talking like that to me?
41139hm, hm, hm,--why not''Love one another''--?
41139question of bindings and wall- space?"
41139she managed to say at length,"and, and-- oh, Cupid, what_ are_ you doing?
41139she said with a sigh of pleasure,"but what''s this?
45525''Ow am I to take that, Louis?
45525''Ow could I be mistook?
45525''Ow many''ll yer give me?
45525''Ow much''ave yer won?
45525A reference, monsieur?
45525A warrant, monsieur?
45525Accounts?
45525After he had followed a certain person home from Madame Lourbet''s shop?
45525Ah,said I, becoming interested, in spite of my suspicion that he was drunk, his manner was so earnest,"whose ghost?"
45525All? 45525 Am I molesting you?
45525Am I right in supposing that they can not afford''a doctor?
45525And Morgan''s also?
45525And acquitted?
45525And did you not follow them?
45525And from there?
45525And madame is well?
45525And of course you did not examine the postmarks on the envelopes?
45525And on the barrow?
45525And the flowers would cost?
45525And the terrible lesson, Barbara?
45525And then you and your spies will trouble me no more?
45525And then?
45525And to give false evidence against your master,I retorted,"that also is faithful service, is it not?
45525And turning, saw Louis fall to the ground with a knife sticking in him?
45525And you are keeping nothing from me now?
45525And you let him go?
45525And you-- what have you to say to it?
45525And your mother-- how is she?
45525And your name?
45525Any luggage, sir?
45525Any other lodgers on this floor, John? 45525 Anything stirring?"
45525Are yer goin''to pay wot yer owe me?
45525Are you a reporter for a newspaper, sir?
45525Are you cooler, John?
45525Are you employed by the Government?
45525Are you satisfied, madame?
45525Are you setting a trap for me?
45525Are you sure you are not mistaken?
45525Are you working for money?
45525As monsieur says,he replied, with exasperating coolness,"but how?"
45525As to the best chance of coming across them now? 45525 At what time do you expect him?"
45525Bad news?
45525Barbara,I said gravely,"it is a strange question, I know, but do you think we are suited to one another?"
45525Beer or whisky?
45525Besides, do I need your permission to carry on a correspondence with my brother?
45525Better, mate?
45525Blacklegs got hold of him, then?
45525But how?
45525But what will become of him?
45525But when did you hear from her?
45525But why ask? 45525 But why?
45525But you did not see the blow struck?
45525But''ow did it happen?
45525By a thin- faced, middle- aged woman, with gray eyes and a white face?
45525By the way, did you happen to hear Maxwell or Louis mention the name of Annette?
45525Can I say more than that?
45525Can not we part without enmity?
45525Can you think of any reason why your son should not come forward to claim this fortune?
45525D''yer mind my lookin''over yer''and?
45525D''yer remember that friend of our''n as Morgan played billiards with at the Jolly Ploughboy?
45525D''yer want me to play on the square?
45525Did I? 45525 Did he bet on horses?"
45525Did he give you my address?
45525Did he go back to Soho?
45525Did he tell you so before we left England?
45525Did he vanish in blue flames, Jack?
45525Did it not strike you as somewhat singular?
45525Did n''t I tell yer? 45525 Did she go alone?"
45525Did they see you looking at them?
45525Did you catch sight of his face?
45525Did you destroy his letters?
45525Did you finish it before you promised never to touch spirits again?
45525Did you go after him?
45525Did you not hear me?
45525Did you observe a scar upon Mr. Mollison''s forehead?
45525Did you track me here?
45525Do I ever orfer to leave off when I''m winnin''? 45525 Do I look like a spy?
45525Do I understand you have seen either of them since you left Liverpool?
45525Do n''t I know it?
45525Do n''t get sulky again,she said, and as I still did not speak, she asked vehemently,"What is the matter now?"
45525Do n''t you know an old pal when you see him? 45525 Do n''t you remember?
45525Do n''t you think so?
45525Do you believe yourself to be guilty of murder?
45525Do you carry a pistol?
45525Do you consider it right, Barbara, to invite them without consulting me?
45525Do you fear that I intend to kill myself?
45525Do you have to say anything? 45525 Do you know what it means to them?
45525Do you mean that truly?
45525Do you see what he is doing?
45525Do you think I believe a word she says? 45525 Do you think I ever intend to?"
45525Do you think it right to oppose me in such a small matter? 45525 Do you wish for it back?"
45525Does he not come to inspect them?
45525Does monsieur find the account correct?
45525Does n''t it? 45525 Does your mother recognize us?"
45525For any particular reason?
45525For keeping away? 45525 For what?"
45525From Lucerne?
45525Guv''nor,he gasped, in a horse voice,"is that tea?
45525Has she been long ill?
45525Has she not her duties to attend to here?
45525Have I made myself beautiful, dear?
45525Have you any idea what has become of her?
45525Have you come to ask for them? 45525 Have you come to rob us?"
45525Have you money enough to provide what is necessary for your journey?
45525Have you read it?
45525Have you searched him?
45525Have you seen much of her?
45525Having tracked me down,I said,"what do you intend to do?"
45525He is coming for you? 45525 He recognized the body as that of Louis by the scar on the forehead?"
45525He visited you frequently?
45525He wrote to you?
45525How are we to get in?
45525How are you, John?
45525How can I thank you?
45525How dare you say my darling would do such a cruel thing? 45525 How dare you utter the lie?
45525How did it happen?
45525How did you find me out?
45525How do you know he murdered him? 45525 How do you know it is his ulster?"
45525How know you there was one?
45525How long does it take to get to Geneva?
45525How much would the stock- in- trade cost?
45525How shall we obtain admittance?
45525I do n''t think I would, for how can he help it? 45525 I have taken you by surprise?"
45525I love theatres, I love bright weather, I love flowers, I love handsome men-- why do you look so grave, sir? 45525 If I disappoint your expectations, what will you do?"
45525If I only what?
45525If I orfer yer a job will yer take it?
45525If I r- refuse, monsieur?
45525If I refuse to give you money?
45525In what way?
45525In what way?
45525Is Annette a good servant?
45525Is anything more required?
45525Is he in England?
45525Is he living in London?
45525Is it likely I should''ave come to you if''e''d been alive?
45525Is it not natural?
45525Is it really necessary?
45525Is it the first time you have seen me?
45525Is my wife unwell?
45525Is n''t it delightful? 45525 Is not this better?"
45525Is that Maxwell''s signal?
45525Is that all? 45525 Is that all?"
45525Is that the medicine you were sent for?
45525Is that the way you treat my friends?
45525Is that you, John?
45525Is that you, Louis? 45525 Is that your only feeling respecting the story?"
45525Is that your room?
45525Is the liquor paid for?
45525It appears strange to you now?
45525It is a question of money?
45525It is you, then, who made the duplicates?
45525It might have been done by himself?
45525It proves my innocence, does n''t it?
45525It was Maxwell who suggested it?
45525It was good news, then?
45525It was your intention to travel by the night train?
45525Madame is safe?
45525Man or woman?
45525Maxwell was to be your companion?
45525May I speak privately to my son?
45525Money?
45525My dear old John, how are you?
45525Neat, was n''t it?
45525No assistance of any kind? 45525 No wine, John?"
45525Nor heard from him?
45525Nor written to him?
45525Not in your own, monsieur?
45525Nothing more?
45525Now, John, what is it?
45525Now, John,said Barbara,"what have you to say to it?"
45525Now, John,she said, in a more conciliatory tone,"have n''t I eyes in my head?
45525Now, look''ere, guv''nor,said Jack, slipping out of the imaginary witness- box,"is that likely?"
45525Now,thought I,"what is the meaning of this, and will it make any difference in Madame Lourbet''s behavior?"
45525Of how many?
45525Of these two?
45525Of what use is this subterfuge? 45525 Oh, do you object to Annette?
45525Oh, it passed you, did it? 45525 Oh, that''s it, is it?"
45525Oh, will he''never come?
45525Oh, yes, it may be; but does one know all one''s customers?
45525Oh,I said,"he was not alone?"
45525On foot?
45525Ours, Barbara?
45525Pray what course do you propose to take?
45525Preparing for a journey?
45525Shall I be allowed to see him?
45525Shall I give him a name?
45525Shall I knock or ring when I come back with the doctor?
45525Shall I read it aloud, John?
45525She is quite right, is n''t she, John? 45525 Since your arrival in England have you never visited him?"
45525Stole?
45525That clears me, do n''t it?
45525That is my work, is it not?
45525The device was not appropriate, eh?
45525The question is, will others believe it? 45525 The table was in the middle of the room?"
45525Then there is no hope?
45525Then there is no study in the house for me?
45525Then to enter the house Maxwell must have had a key?
45525Then why have you remained so long?
45525Then you confess you were in the wrong?
45525Then you did not meet with one?
45525Then you heard a scream?
45525Though one was a gentleman and the other was not?
45525Time to go, eh? 45525 To Paris?"
45525To denounce you-- to put the rope round your own neck? 45525 To keep this"--pointing to my wife--"from the other servants in the house-- is not that faithful service?"
45525To search again, then, would be useless?
45525To what do you refer?
45525Trustworthy, honest, and sober?
45525Turned teetotaler?
45525Upon what grounds am I discharged, monsieur?
45525Upon you?
45525Was he tall or short?
45525Was there no address on his letters?
45525Was your accident very serious?
45525We do n''t have any, do we, John?
45525We''ve seed a lot of each other, and when did yer see me show the white feather? 45525 Well, Jack,"said I,"do you still believe in your ghost?"
45525Well, it is full of mystery, and who does know for certain? 45525 Well, monsieur?"
45525Well, my lady?
45525Well?
45525Well?
45525Well?
45525Were there any other marks on the body by which it might be identified?
45525What about?
45525What accident?
45525What are you crying for?
45525What are you crying for?
45525What class, sir?
45525What did the other man look like?
45525What did you keep me so long for?
45525What did you notice in him?
45525What do I mean? 45525 What do I want?
45525What do you expect to do for me,he asked,"when my own evidence proves my guilt?"
45525What do you know of it?
45525What do you know of it?
45525What do you mean by treating me so cruelly? 45525 What do you mean?"
45525What do you require of me?
45525What do you require, monsieur?
45525What do you say to a party of the name of Maxwell?
45525What do you think of your ghost now, Jack?
45525What do you want the servants for?
45525What does he say?
45525What does it matter, the place?
45525What does my dear boy think of it?
45525What does that matter? 45525 What else can you expect?"
45525What is it you are making?
45525What is it you want of me?
45525What is it, monsieur, that I should not wish all the world to know?
45525What is it? 45525 What is the matter with her mother?"
45525What is the matter with your mistress?
45525What is the matter with your mother?
45525What is the meaning of this?
45525What is the meaning of this?
45525What is your John Fordham to me? 45525 What is your errand now?"
45525What kind of evidence?
45525What made you notice him particularly?
45525What matter?
45525What name?
45525What now remained to me to do?
45525What other feeling can I have?
45525What reason is there for disbelief?
45525What shall I do? 45525 What should I follow them for?"
45525What to do?
45525What will be done to him?
45525What will you have? 45525 When did you hear from him?"
45525When was it arranged that the three of you were to go together to the continent?
45525Where is the ladder?
45525Where is the lady''s brooch you bought in Paris?
45525Where shall we talk? 45525 Where then, for goodness sake?
45525Where''s the veal?
45525Who cares? 45525 Who is Madame Fordham?"
45525Who is in the house besides yourselves?
45525Who is quarreling?
45525Who is there?
45525Who was to go with you?
45525Whom did you expect to find?'' 45525 Why did you not come to me before?"
45525Why do you not answer? 45525 Why not, Jack?
45525Why should it annoy me?
45525Why would not his mother do this?
45525Why, truly,she said, brightening up,"so long as we are together what does it matter where we live?"
45525Will a duck swim?
45525Will nothing satisfy you?
45525Will you give it me in a lump?
45525Will you, Barbara?
45525Will your mother be strong enough to travel then?
45525With a friend?
45525Wosn''t''i m and me together day and night for weeks and weeks? 45525 Wot am I to gain by it?"
45525Wot are yer makin''a row about?
45525Wot d''yer mean?
45525Wot do you think?
45525Wot does it matter?
45525Wot sort of bird?
45525Wot''ave yer done?
45525Wot''s the little game, guv''nor?
45525Wot''s the matter now?
45525Would Swanage suit me?
45525Would any lady act as you have acted?
45525Would it not be a good thing to convince others of that?
45525Would yer?
45525You are fond of the country?
45525You are mixing up things, rather, are you not, Barbara?
45525You are not afraid?
45525You are packing up to go away?
45525You bad boy-- what could you have been doing; and why do you speak to me so unfeelingly? 45525 You believe him guilty?"
45525You do n''t believe me?
45525You do n''t mean to say I was being shadowed?
45525You do not like wine?
45525You do not like wine?
45525You have made arrangements, I presume,she commenced,"for residing elsewhere?"
45525You have seen him?
45525You know the house he went into?
45525You mean it, dear-- you are not deceiving me?
45525You promise it,she said,"on your honor as a gentleman?"
45525You really kept nothing from me, Barbara?
45525You refuse?
45525You ruffians-- how dare you?
45525You say your back was turned during the altercation between Louis and Maxwell?
45525You sent for me madame?
45525You will always love me, will you not-- you will always buy flowers for me? 45525 You will keep that promise faithfully, Barbara?"
45525You wish me to do so?
45525You wish me to leave the house soon?
45525You wo n''t?
45525You would n''t punish him for stealing?
45525Your card- sharping Liverpool friend?
45525Your life or death?
45525Your own name, I presume, madame?
45525Your wife''s maid, Annette, had another name?
45525''Ave yer got anythink else to say afore I start?
45525''Ave yer spent that twelve bob yer won of us at billiards?"
45525''E scanned me all over, jest as if''e was measurin''me for somethink, and sed,"You ai n''t over- partickler, I suppose?"
45525''Ow wos I to guess''e''ad a mother when I did n''t know who''e wos or where''e come from?"
45525''What do you say now to my candidate being qualified?''
45525''Who was my son''s bitterest enemy-- who has always been his bitterest enemy?
45525''Your story true,''he would say,''why did you not come forward immediately and relate it?''
45525A cup of tea?"
45525A long time to carry a large bouquet of flowers amidst a throng of people, but what cared I?
45525A tight''ole, was n''t it?
45525Add murder to murder?
45525All our troubles are over now, are they not, love?
45525Am I right?
45525Am I so changed, or is it that you have not recovered from the shock of the loss we have sustained?
45525Am I to continue to send the money?"
45525Am I, then, weary of life that I deliberately place myself in deadly peril, and invite the last dread sentence of the law to be passed upon me?
45525And after all, what are your finest lawyers, and judges, and Lord Chief Justices but a superior kind of detective?
45525And even supposing her to be in her room, how to account for the frightful silence?
45525And now, who is to acquaint the Camerons with your scheme?"
45525And that admission justifies you?"
45525And what are you?"
45525And you are no longer angry with me that I have engaged Annette?"
45525And you truly, truly love me?"
45525And you, monsieur-- you will save me?
45525Are you a doctor, sir?"
45525Are you not proud of your wife?"
45525Are you overcome by your feelings?
45525Are you positive he said just those words?
45525Are you prepared to repay it?"
45525Are you still a teetotaller?
45525As I did not answer him, he continued:"Why so silent, my dear John?
45525Asleep?"
45525At whose cowardly hand had he met his death?
45525Barbara, however, said she could not eat, and Maxwell cried boisterously:"What are you thinking of, brother- in- law?
45525Before our marriage she never touched strong drink-- is that the way it goes?
45525Besides, are you not going to coin money out of your books?"
45525Besides, wosn''t I as bad as they wos, and would n''t I''ave won money of Louis if''e''d give me''arf a chance?
45525But do you think we shall forget you?
45525But how had this substitution of bodies been effected?
45525But of what use appeal to Him?
45525But one can believe; there is no harm in that, is there?"
45525But which was the right way?
45525But why get sulky over it?
45525But would it be easy to find Maxwell?
45525But, hating me as you do, why should you be so sensitive about my good name?"
45525By the way, can you lend me a tenner for a few days?"
45525By the way, where was your wife buried?"
45525By whom, and by what means?
45525Can I be of any help to you?"
45525Can I say more than that?"
45525Can we call such beings human?
45525Can you account for it?"
45525Can you be sure of that?"
45525Can you give me his address?"
45525Can you not credit me with a sincere desire to serve two poor and deserving persons without harboring a base thought towards them?"
45525Can you recommend another?"
45525Can you suggest anything?"
45525Can you understand what that means to me?
45525Could any newly- married couple be happier than we are?
45525Could we not live together in some distant country where there would be no fear of detection?
45525D''yer think I''ve been makin''up the story?"
45525Did I not do right in relieving him?"
45525Did Louis have an accomplice?
45525Did he look down at you?"
45525Did he mistrust me?
45525Did he return them to you?"
45525Did it strike you when you assumed that name that the initials were the same?
45525Did n''t I wish it was real instead o''gammon?
45525Did n''t he rob me-- didn''t he nearly murder me?
45525Did you ever know me to be guilty of a mean action?"
45525Did you see me there?"
45525Do I pry into your letters?
45525Do yer twig?"
45525Do you believe his statement?"
45525Do you deny it was his?"
45525Do you forget that marriages are made in Heaven?"
45525Do you not love handsome women?
45525Do you not recollect that in the newspaper reports it was stated that Louis''body was beneath the table?"
45525Do you perceive that your hatred of John Fordham may be carried too far?
45525Do you perceive the danger that hangs over you, madame?
45525Do you require anything more?"
45525Do you see my hand held out in friendship?
45525Do you see the connection?
45525Do you think I care for any one but you?
45525Do you think I did n''t find out long ago that there was no love lost between you and Maxwell?
45525Do you think I would be so dishonorable as to break a promise I gave you-- you, of all, men?
45525Do you think it is my comfort I am looking after?
45525Do you think we left Jack out of the reckoning?
45525Eh?"
45525Enjoyed yourself?"
45525Fletcher?"
45525From my brutality?
45525From your experience of them, probable or possible?"
45525Had I the right to search this trunk?
45525Had any sounds of disturbance been heard in her apartment?
45525Had he any suspicion of your intention to give yourself up?"
45525Had she rung for refreshment or assistance?
45525Had she seen me first-- but of what use is it to speculate upon what might have been?
45525Has Ellen told you we have no relatives?"
45525Have I put the matter plainly?
45525Have you a portrait of your son?"
45525Have you finished, then?
45525Have you forgotten so soon, so soon?"
45525Have you had a bad night?"
45525He dropped his voice, and bending forward, said:"Did yer ever see a ghost?"
45525He leaves you to find it out-- so boyish, is n''t it?
45525He liked this, he liked that, and was n''t this grand, and was n''t that beautiful?
45525He regrets the necessity, but what can he do?
45525He went to races and lost his money?"
45525How could you, love, how could you, when I am suffering so?"
45525How dare you come here in such a state?"
45525How dare you rob me?
45525How dare you sneak, and pry, and search my boxes, while I am asleep?
45525How did he come here?"
45525How did her letters run?
45525How did she become possessed of it?
45525How did you find me out?"
45525How do you do, John?
45525How does that strike you?"
45525How long ago was it?"
45525How many persons in the drama?
45525How shall I save my children?
45525How shall I save myself?"
45525How soon after?
45525How, then, could they have invented such a story?
45525I ca n''t speak fairer nor that, can I?
45525I do n''t do anything right, do I?
45525I had now the means to gratify my cherished desire-- why should I not do so?
45525I had raised an ideal of her-- had it met with disappointment?
45525I hardly cared to live, for what is life without love?
45525I looked at the address she had written, 23 Lethbridge Road, N. W."Do they all live together, madame?"
45525I must tell everythink I know about myself and my pals and Mr. Louis?
45525I rejoice-- and you, too, eh?
45525I took the cup from him, and placing it on the table said:"Now, what is the meaning of this?
45525I''ad a''and in it?
45525If I could not cope with Barbara alone, how much less able was I to cope with her now that she had such an ally as this sly creature?
45525If I were to mope, dear, baby would suffer-- and that would never do, would it, darling?"
45525If I''ad the''eart to kill a man, I ai n''t got the pluck-- Wot''s that yer say?
45525If he could be found now, and be induced to speak the truth?"
45525If he were living would my advertisement in the personal columns of the newspapers be successful in unearthing him?
45525If so, what would be her fate?
45525If so, who more likely than Maxwell?
45525In an unsteady voice he asked,"What deduction do you draw from that?"
45525In the society of the charming Madame Virtue and her sweet babe, or alone?"
45525In which case what becomes of the censure passed by Fordham''s solicitor upon the class to which I belong?
45525Innocent or guilty, John?"
45525Innocent( it would be argued), what had I to fear?
45525Is it not good of Annette to accept the situation I offered her?
45525Is it not man''s privilege to protect the weak?
45525Is it that you fear that this might lead the police to inquire into the reasons for your association with the villain who murdered Monsieur Morgan?"
45525Is n''t it sweet?
45525Is that it, dear friends?"
45525Is that the letter you refer to?"
45525Is the gentleman there now?"
45525Is there no way, I thought, is there no way?
45525Is there such things, or am I goin''mad?"
45525It ai n''t a plant, is it?
45525It ai n''t a pleasant sight, guv''nor, is it?
45525Leave matters to chance, and in the event of the worst not happening, protect myself by every possible means, or give myself up to the authorities?
45525Leave them in her trunk?
45525Louis?"
45525May I ask your name?"
45525May I ask, monsieur, by whom you were recommended?"
45525Mistrust an English gentleman?
45525Morgan could corroborate them, but would he, being himself in danger?
45525Mrs. Fordham fell back with a shriek of alarm, and a man ran out of the nearest room, crying:"What''s the matter?"
45525Must he hear your voice?"
45525My price?
45525My thought was: What effect will the story have upon Barbara?
45525No?
45525No?
45525No?
45525No?
45525Now, of what legal value was all this evidence?
45525Now, was the name that of a woman, and was her Christian name Annette?
45525Now, we will not quarrel any more, will we?
45525Now, why should the discovery of that knife have directed my thoughts in your direction?
45525Oh, John, why did you go over my boxes on the sly?"
45525Once when we were alone, she said:"Do you love Ellen?"
45525Or are you making it up?"
45525Otherwise, do you think I care what becomes of you?"
45525Proud of her?
45525Repine?
45525See?"
45525Seriously, my love, do you look upon me as a child, and do you think I will allow myself to be spied upon and robbed with impunity?"
45525Setting that aside, I come face to face with the question,"For what reason did Maxwell wish John Fordham to believe that his stepmother was dead?"
45525Shall I name the price?"
45525Shall she attend to madame?"
45525Shall we converse here or in your private room?"
45525Shall we leave off?"
45525Shall we say Fletcher-- John Fletcher?
45525She had another lover, had she?
45525She was tired of him, was she?
45525She would sink to the ground in shame, would n''t she, Barbara?
45525Take the son of a thief, now; how can he help being a thief?
45525That being so, why was she silent?
45525Then I called aloud:"Annette, are you there?"
45525Then after a pause,"You have seen trouble?"
45525Then came the question, had you taken the other woman with you?
45525Then why call upon me so soon for payment?
45525Then, how to account for the facts of her bedroom door being locked and of her not answering to my call?
45525There has been no crime or robbery?"
45525There''s no need of an introduction, is there?
45525There, there, my dear, do n''t cry; and what are you about, stopping here in the cold?
45525Under these persecutions was it any wonder that I felt myself becoming hardened?
45525Was Barbara to blame for it?
45525Was I really in love?
45525Was he so badly wounded that he had no strength to kill me?
45525Was it for this that I should put on a mournful face and conjure false tears into my eyes?
45525Was it likely that Louis alone knew of the house and had no confederates?
45525Was it so in this instance?
45525Was it that she had swooned?
45525Was madame subject to fainting fits?
45525Was not this the city of love?
45525We all forgive you, do n''t we, Mrs. Fordham-- and you, too, Louis?
45525We will not talk of it any more, will we?"
45525We wosn''t as careful as we might''ave been, for all of a sudden the man as wos bein''rooked cried savagely:"Wot are you fellers watchin''me for?"
45525Well, where is it?"
45525Well?"
45525Were they certain that madame could not have left the hotel without being seen?
45525What are you doing for a living just now?"
45525What are your letters about, dear?"
45525What better marks of identification could a detective desire?
45525What can you know about domestic affairs?
45525What cared I for that, for him, for any one in the world but my dear Ellen and my boy?
45525What clearer evidence of my barbarity could be supplied?
45525What could I do?
45525What could I make of it except that both John Fordham and Jack were laboring under some monstrous delusion?
45525What could be clearer?
45525What could they do?
45525What d''yer say to two- pound points?"
45525What difference can she make?
45525What do I care?
45525What do I do?
45525What do we not owe you?"
45525What do you make of it?"
45525What does every one want?"
45525What does it portend-- what, except that they are in deadly peril?
45525What does the doctor who is attending her say?"
45525What does the paper say about it?"
45525What good is the money doing you?"
45525What had become of him?
45525What have you to be ashamed of, and why should n''t you reap your reward?
45525What if I had told him that the good news was the death of my wife?
45525What is that?"
45525What is the result in this instance?
45525What is there so delightful as the renewal of old affectionate ties, broken through a misconception?
45525What kept you so long?
45525What kind of bad company?
45525What name do you go by here?
45525What now was left to me to do?
45525What on earth made you run off with it, and what on earth made you leave your own behind?
45525What pity could I have for one who had done this evil?
45525What possible motive could Maxwell have in making John Fordham believe that his stepmother was dead?
45525What should I do with the cursed things?
45525What then?
45525What then?"
45525What was I saying about Maxwell?
45525What was that?
45525What will I do?
45525When is the train?"
45525Where are you going, Barbara?"
45525Where did he see him?"
45525Where was he?
45525Where were you, what time of day was it, and in what shape did it appear to you?"
45525Which do you think worse-- a hell in this life, or a hell in the next?"
45525Who but John Fordham?''
45525Who took the house, and for what purpose was it taken?
45525Who was the murderer?
45525Who were his confederates?
45525Who would believe such a tale?
45525Who''s the pigeon?"
45525Why did she remain in hiding?
45525Why do n''t''e come and collar it?"
45525Why do you keep it by you?
45525Why had he left me here without finishing his work?
45525Why had he not claimed it?
45525Why have you locked the door?"
45525Why should I hide my happiness?
45525Why should I, guiltless in intent of crime, be condemned to lifelong misery and despair?
45525Why the''hereafter,''dear?"
45525Why, then, should I declare myself a murderer and bring despair upon Ellen, bring ignominy and shame upon her and our child?
45525Why?"
45525Will it offend you to hear me say that no gentleman would act as you have done?"
45525Will yer give me a cup?
45525Will you back me up?"
45525Will you come?"
45525Will you have one, John?
45525Wot am I winnin''?"
45525Wot should I''ave knowed about''is mother if''e''adn''t spoke about''er,''isself?
45525Wot sort of a job?"
45525Wot''s''e up to?''"
45525Would it have been better for me had Louis''mother been alive?
45525Would it have been better for me?
45525Would it shock you very much if I smoked a cigarette?
45525Would monsieur be kind enough to produce the decanter?
45525Would n''t you like to ask me a few questions?"
45525Would you believe I had to travel third- class, and did n''t have money enough to pay for a return ticket?
45525Yer ca n''t play it much lower nor that, can yer, guv''nor?
45525Yer''d go as fur as a moke, guv''nor, would n''t yer?
45525Yes?
45525You are a ninny if you do n''t, and if you do n''t, sir, why did you marry me?"
45525You are glad that we shall soon see Maxwell, are you not?"
45525You are positive he said,''My mother shall be done with you?''"
45525You believe it, too, of course?"
45525You can punish him-- why do you not?
45525You did not tear up the letter?"
45525You expect him here tonight?"
45525You had almost forgotten, had you not, John, that I was alone in this city, without a friend but you?
45525You know what that means, do you not?
45525You saw me coming?"
45525You understand?"
45525You will be kind to me, will you not, dear?''
45525You''re willing?
45525Your mother is no worse, I hope?"
45525Your own?
45525cried Jack, peering at it over my shoulder, his eyes almost starting out of his head,"where did you get that from?"
45525he asked,"when he was acquainted with so many things which I thought no one knew but myself?"
