19522Whatcher goin''to do?
19522Where do you suppose that freight stopped? 19522 Where does Old Man Stanton live?"
19522Where is our young hero, anyway?
19522Where''d you think you were? 19522 Where''s your patrol this morning?"
19522Who are you boys?
19522Who does the_ Good Turn_ belong to?
19522Who-- told-- you to deliver it-- Tom?
19522Why do n''t you laugh? 19522 Wo n''t you come in?"
19522Wot''s in that bag?
19522Would you like to stay longer?
19522Ye ai n''t goin''to walk it, be ye?
19522You do n''t mean murdered?
19522You do n''t mean you''re going to hike it from here, Tom, do you?
19522You do n''t suppose all that fuss can have anything to do with Pee- wee, do you?
19522You do n''t suppose anyone lives there, do you?
19522You do n''t suppose he put the idea in her head, do you?
19522You going home?
19522You must promise to be careful-- can you all swim?
19522You some o''the Bridgeboro boys?
19522You''re not getting ready to go?
19522You''re strangers, hey?
19522You''re the only original Boy Scout; how did you get next to that stunt? 19522 You-- were you at Temple''s?"
19522You--_you_ do n''t think I''m a coward, do you?
19522_ What?_said Roy.
19522''Spose he did it on purpose or got locked in?"
19522An''if anybody comes in here''cause o''you makin''a noise and cryin''fer help, yer''ll be the fust to git croaked-- see?"
19522And what''s he going to do when he gets there?"
19522Be great if we could find him to- night, hey?"
19522But all I want to know is,_ you_ do n''t think I''m a coward, do you?"
19522But how are we going to take him along on this hike?
19522But you ought not to expect me to pay the two cents----""Did n''t I put a stamp on it?"
19522By the way, could n''t_ you_ give us a spiel?"
19522Can you catch him?"
19522Come on, get your wits to work now, and we''ll send him the invitation in the form of a verse, what d''you say?"
19522Could n''t you get bitten by a rattlesnake on one of your tracking stunts?
19522Could you say you did me a good turn by hitting me with a brick because that way I got to be a scout?
19522Did n''t I say so?
19522Did you ever try tracking a freight train?
19522Did you get any water on you?"
19522Did you jump-- both of you?"
19522Do n''t you see?
19522Do you get that?"
19522Do you know what logic is?"
19522Do you know why?"
19522Do you think you were correct in your deductions?"
19522Get away from here as soon''s ye can,--hear?
19522Get out your magnifying glass, Tom; what''s that, a village, up there?"
19522Gol, how happy that kid was-- you remember, Bill?
19522Good turn, turn down the gas, hey?
19522Got a stretcher?"
19522Great kid, is n''t he?"
19522Have n''t we had the time of our young lives?
19522He''s an all- around scout, is n''t he?"
19522Here?"
19522How can we fix this up for three_ now_?
19522How did it get here?
19522How did_ he_ get here?"
19522I said-- you remember how I said I wanted to be alone with you-- you remember?
19522I suppose the gold cross is the highest award they''ll ever have, hey?"
19522I''d be satisfied with that, would n''t you?"
19522I''m going to report it to J. R.""They on the camp land?"
19522I''m going to----""Have another sandwich?"
19522I''ve made a study of girls, kind of---- And you''re more apt to succeed if there''s a girl watching you-- did you ever notice that?"
19522If Roy and Tom were to ask you to go with them on their long hike, would that be a good turn?"
19522If it had n''t been raining this week, we''d never known about a freight car being stalled here, hey?
19522If you do a good turn it''s sure to make you feel good-- that you did it-- see?
19522Is he going to favor the Elks or is he going to be neutral?"
19522It serves me right for----""What''s the use of thinking about that_ now_?"
19522It''s fresh rust-- see?
19522It''s no good turn to him, dragging him up and down mountains till he''s so dog- tired he falls all over himself-- is it?"
19522It''s the three weeks that counted-- see?"
19522Just the same as you made me a scout a year ago, you remember?
19522Look at the blisters on my hand, will you?
19522Might n''t a girl do a good turn?"
19522One had said,"Are you making believe to telegraph that way?
19522One, two, three, four-- same on the other side, see?
19522Remember when we trucked her up from the freight station and dumped her in three year ago?
19522Rushmore?"
19522See that footprint-- it''s only half a one-- the front half-- see?
19522See that tree up there?"
19522See those little rusty places on the track?
19522See?
19522She looks mighty nat''ral, do n''t she, Bill?
19522So you did hit the railroad after all, did n''t you?
19522Stanton?"
19522Strangers here?"
19522That ought to pull the silver cross, hey?
19522That''s where he climbed into the car-- see?"
19522Then why should he bring this board back with him unless it was to help him keep afloat?"
19522There''s where the wheels were-- see?
19522These fellows are taking me with them; that''s a good turn, but if somebody paid''em to do it, it would n''t be a good turn, would it?
19522Tom-- whar''s Tom?
19522Well, then, would it be bad to play false with an escaped felon-- to double- cross him?
19522What are we up against, anyway?"
19522What d''you say, Tom?"
19522What do you say we tie up in Kingston and have a soda?"
19522What do you think of him, Tom?"
19522What do you think we''re going to do, start a manicure parlor?
19522What''d''you say?"
19522When you''re roaming, you have to do as the Romans do, hey?
19522Who''s going to take the responsibility?
19522Why ca n''t he wait and come up with the rest?
19522Why did n''t you bring your knitting?"
19522Why, who was it but Mary that told John Temple there must be ten thousand wooden plates and goodness knows how many sanitary drinking cups?
19522Wot d''yer say yer wuz?"
19522Wotever become o''that skiff, Bill?"
19522Ye come oft''n that outer road, ye say?
19522Ye did n''t see no men around here last night now, did ye?"
19522Yer ai n''t goin''ter peach wot I tell ye, now?
19522Yer ai n''t, are ye?"
19522You can move''er by pullin''one finger now, hey?
19522You do n''t believe all this about Roy''s making a_ noble sacrifice_, do you?"
19522You do n''t suppose it would run on witch hazel, do you?"
19522You have n''t forgotten about the searchlight, have you, Roy?
19522You know who it is that''s always doing something for someone and never getting any credit for it, do n''t you?
19522You remember how you told me about the scout''s arm having a long reach?
19522You remember, Roy?
19522You were just going to dive, were n''t you?"
19522You''re a lucky kid; you stay till the last gun is fired, do n''t you?"
19522You''re with us because we want you with us, not because Mary Temple wanted it, but because_ I_ want you and Tom wants you; do you hear?
19522[ missing:"?]
19522said Roy,"are they all the same length?"
19522said Tom,"a merit badge?"
6915A snug nest for our first prize, eh?
6915A traveling printer, eh?
6915Ai n''t he just the little boss schemer, though?
6915Ai n''t we nearly there?
6915All we have to do is to drop a little wood on the fire once in a while, eh, Max?
6915And Steve, what about you?
6915And did you hear the name of the old farmer whose house had been robbed, Jim?
6915And did you succeed-- did you get your dad out all right?
6915And say, Max, did you take her out again?
6915And since that time you''ve been in hiding, afraid to show yourselves in any town?
6915And they denied touching it?
6915And those are tree frogs croaking close by?
6915And took something out?
6915And we must keep mum about it till you play your hand; is that it?
6915And you''ve been thinking we''d come up here to beat you out in the game-- is that it?
6915And, Jim,put in Bandy- legs, seriously,"just you make up your mind that we''ll never whisper a word of what you tell us to a living soul, eh, Max?"
6915Are you saying that just on general principles like, Max, or is there a reason?
6915Are you sitting in the same place?
6915As how?
6915As what, now?
6915As what?
6915As what?
6915As where?
6915Begin what?
6915But how are we going to always know what_ is_ southwest?
6915But it was no go?
6915But look here, do you mean you were awake last night, and saw what Steve did? 6915 But not the pearls we find-- if so be we''re lucky enough to run across more?"
6915But what can we do about it, Max?
6915But what if the savage beast drops down on the shoulders of our chums?
6915But what makes you say it''s a boy, Max; why not a man, when you''re about it?
6915But whatever did you put in this stew to make it taste so funny?
6915But where''s the hole?
6915But you called out to him, did n''t you?
6915But you''ll bait the trap again, Max, so Steve''ll know, or believe the game is worth the candle?
6915But, say, had n''t we better make sure of that last pearl? 6915 But, see here, Max, what are you grinning about?"
6915Ca n''t you find the little cardboard box?
6915D''ye suppose it could have been a bobcat?
6915D- d- did you open the others?
6915D- d- didn''t you see, we''ve j- j- just got to warn our c- c- chums, and s- s- stand that t- t- terrible beast off? 6915 Did we?
6915Did you ever do such a thing, Steve?
6915Did you get a chance to talk with him, and ask him why he grabbed our pearl?
6915Did you see or hear anything to make you think that way?
6915Did you, Jim?
6915Do n''t you see he''s beckoning right now?
6915Do you expect we''ll have any trouble with these pearl- shell gatherers, Max?
6915Do you mean to say you kept it?
6915Dollars, you mean, Max?
6915Even if we did lose that first beaut of a gem, have n''t we still got three elegant ones? 6915 F- f- find anything in''em?"
6915G- g- guess owls do n''t leave tracks, d- d- do they? 6915 Gettin''shells, too, I reckon?"
6915H- h- hear that, will you, boys?
6915H- h- hope he did n''t p- p- poison us?
6915H- h- how do they account f- for that?
6915Have you asked Owen and Toby about it?
6915Have you been shaking hands with Good Luck as well as me? 6915 Here, Max, take charge of this, wo n''t you, and put it with the rest of our prizes?
6915Hey, Bandy- legs, what d''ye suppose ails Toby there?
6915How about it, Max, Steve?
6915How about it, Max?
6915How about it, Max?
6915How about telling Toby or Bandy- legs?
6915How about that, Max?
6915How about you, Bandy- legs?
6915How d''ye know that?
6915How did that happen?
6915How long ago was this, Jim-- about a month?
6915How long ago, Owen?
6915How many?
6915How the dickens would Bandy- legs know about that?
6915How''d you ever get feed?
6915I did promise, did n''t I?
6915I just could n''t make out for sure, b- but b- back of the eyes I thought I could see----"Oh, what?
6915I take it from what you say, Jim, that you were n''t made a prisoner at the same time they nabbed your father?
6915If so be you hide the boats away so well that we could n''t ever find the same again we''d sure be in a nice pickle, eh, Owen?
6915If we meet up with this mysterious shell gatherer, what ought we to do?
6915In the night-- we have tricks, you say? 6915 In what way, Owen?"
6915Is Tom Jones your father''s real name?
6915Is he sick?
6915Is it because he thinks he was n''t seen?
6915Is it safe, d''ye think?
6915Is that so, Max? 6915 Jim got yuh, did he?"
6915Just as fine as the one we lost, eh, Steve?
6915Just why?
6915L- l- land''s sake, did n''t you s- s- see it, fellows?
6915Let me see it, then?
6915Looky here, will you, Max-- ain''t that a beaut, though?
6915Many marked with the star brand?
6915Meaning that they''re about as ignorant of all these things as I am?
6915Meaning that we may find a lot more; is that it, Max?
6915Now where did you see all this?
6915Now you mean about the trouble your dad fell into on account of that old farmer; is that it, Jim?
6915Of course you followed them?
6915Oh, what did you think you heard, Steve?
6915Or a big Virginia horned owl?
6915Perhaps we might happen to run across him some other time?
6915Remember the second coffee pot we fetched along? 6915 S- s- say, do n''t you b- b- believe there was a high j- j- jinks of a time to- day when Ted f- f- found we''d slipped away, and nobody knew where?"
6915S- s- say, what you got in the p- p- pot?
6915Say, I wonder what next is going to disappear around this old camp?
6915Say, are you really going to tackle him, Max?
6915Say, is he agoin''tuh git well, mistah?
6915Say, looky here, perhaps now you really expect to find our other lost pearl in there?
6915Say, was it a w- w- wildcat?
6915Say, you mean to put it with the others in your pocketbook, do n''t you, and let the little box go empty?
6915Say,broke out Steve, suddenly,"perhaps it''s that little prowler Toby sighted spying on the camp?"
6915Shall I repeat a form of assertion, Max, to which each one of us will subscribe?
6915So t- t- tell us what the p- p- p- p--whistle--"prospects are, wo n''t you?"
6915Something bothering you a bit, old fellow?
6915Sometimes the finest gems come in the meanest of coverings, you mean, eh, Steve?
6915Steve?
6915Stop and think; what''s the use?
6915Suppose we find out?
6915Suppose you tell us what it''s all about, wo n''t you?
6915Sure they wo n''t come back on us yet a while, eh, Max?
6915T- t- tell me about that, now, will you?
6915That''s all right, Max,spoke up Steve;"but why would he be a scared boy-- why did n''t the chump walk right into camp and join us?"
6915That''s an owl, I reckon, ai n''t it, Max?
6915Then Toby is really the only one out of the secret?
6915Then what did?
6915Then you are sure nobody made a sneak on us and got away with the second batch of prizes?
6915Then you could n''t catch him?
6915Then you told him when you were alone here this morning?
6915Then, Max, you do n''t think these parties are onto the pearl racket-- is that it?
6915There, do you hear that, Jim?
6915This little glass jar here; but what''re you grinning at? 6915 To- night, you mean?"
6915Toby, how is it with you?
6915W- w- what d''ye s''pose this is for, s- s- silly?
6915W- w- who''s afraid?
6915Wait a minute, c- c- can''t you? 6915 Wait for what?"
6915Was I dreaming, or did I see you put that thing in this haversack?
6915Was it a bear?
6915Was it a real ghost you saw, or a snake? 6915 Was it a whine, a cry just like a baby''d make?
6915Was it really a decent pearl, Max?
6915We want that pearl back, do n''t we, boys?
6915Well, I declare, is that the kind of mussel they''ve been finding pearls in?
6915Well, what d''ye think of that, eh?
6915Well, what was it?
6915Well,scoffed Bandy- legs, realizing that it was his turn to crow,"why do n''t you produce the goods, Toby?
6915What about Jim and his daddy?
6915What ails you?
6915What d''ye make of him, Max?
6915What d''ye mean by saying that, cousin?
6915What d''ye think of that?
6915What d''ye think they''re worth, Max?
6915What did you fool us for, Toby?
6915What did you take that salt out of?
6915What did, then?
6915What do you think about it, Max?
6915What do you want us to do, Jim?
6915What does it all mean, Max?
6915What is it?
6915What is it?
6915What is?
6915What luck, Owen?
6915What makes you say that?
6915What makes you think he did n''t?
6915What you got, Steve?
6915What''s going on here?
6915What''s going on now, Max?
6915What''s the matter?
6915What''s your dad''s name, Jim?
6915When do we begin, Max?
6915Where are his tracks?
6915Where is he now?
6915Where to?
6915Who can say? 6915 Who do you mean by saying he?"
6915Why do n''t you whistle, Toby, you silly?
6915Why do you say that?
6915Why not? 6915 Why, what do you miss now?"
6915Would you mind passing me that frying pan, Owen? 6915 Yes, and one you''ll never forget, eh, Steve?"
6915Yes, they are,replied Max;"and how is it with you, Toby?"
6915You belong down South, do n''t you, Jim?
6915You do n''t say?
6915You do n''t say?
6915You forgot to tell us about it, do n''t you know?
6915You had it on your tongue to say something more, did n''t you, Owen?
6915You mean by introducing the same kind of grit in some hundreds of shellfish, and making the things work up a lot of fine pearls, eh, Steve?
6915You mean that they do n''t want people to know about their collecting these shells, for fear that their little business might be broken up?
6915You remember that old cap we found last night?
6915You say your father worked-- was he a farm hand?
6915You tucked it away in pink cotton, did n''t you?
6915You''ve always been such a light sleeper, Max; how is it you did n''t hear the thief creep in, and search our bag?
6915You_ think_ you have, you mean?
6915Ai n''t it salt at all?"
6915Ai n''t it so, Max?"
6915Ai n''t that so, Max?"
6915And how did you get hold of them, Max?"
6915And now what''ll we do?"
6915And, Max, he put the pearls in our old coffee pot, would you believe it?"
6915Are the full shells here a- plenty?"
6915But about that moss-- does it always grow exactly on the sides of the trees pointing toward the northwest?"
6915But how the dickens is a feller to ever remember_ which_ side of the big trees this moss always grows on?"
6915But look at Bandy- legs, would you, Max?
6915But once I heard you say a common ordinary watch could be made to serve as a compass; how about that, Max?"
6915Cain''t yuh come''long with me, mistah?"
6915Did you find what you expected?
6915Did you get the boats hidden away all right, Bandy- legs?"
6915Did you see our friend Toby, here, and go him one better?"
6915Do n''t you smell fish frying?
6915Do n''t you think it could be done, Max?"
6915G- g- go on, Max; what''s next?"
6915G- get that, now?"
6915How about that coffee?"
6915How could he be so mean?"
6915How is it with you, Max; can you truthfully declare the same thing?"
6915How many have you got in your bag, Max?"
6915I hope now I did n''t try-- say?
6915I spoke of it before, you may remember, boys?"
6915I suppose your dad means to get a load down the river, and sell the same to some factory that manufactures pearl buttons?"
6915If it does come to pass, wo n''t we be the luckiest crowd that ever came down the pike?"
6915Is that it, Bandy- legs?"
6915Max hated to even allow such a suspicion to gain lodgment in his mind; but after what he had seen, how could he help it?
6915Notice this queer mark like a five- pointed star on the shell?
6915Now, what''s eating you, Toby?"
6915Now, whatever in the wide world can you mean?"
6915One apiece all around, eh?
6915Perhaps that compass kept''em from straying out of the trail you said you made, Max?"
6915Pretty near time for the boys to be showing up, ai n''t it?
6915Put yourself in his place, Toby, and tell me if you would n''t just grab your own cap if you saw it?
6915Ready, Steve?
6915S- sure that ugly little crooked thing could never be a valuable pearl?"
6915Say, are they ours, the first one as well as the other two?
6915See him examining the ground right now, will you?
6915Strike anything?"
6915Then Max addressed his four chums, inquiring:"Are you all through?"
6915Was that name Griffin, Jim?"
6915We g- g- got one b- b- bully old p- p- prize, did n''t we, Steve?"
6915What about the pearls?
6915What could it mean?
6915What d''ye think of that, now?"
6915What the minks and musquash get wo n''t keep us from making our try, will it?"
6915What''s eating you now, Toby Jucklin?"
6915Whatever will we do, Max?"
6915Where are Max and his cousin Owen just now?"
6915Where will we find the rest of you when we get through our job?"
6915Where''d you come from?
6915Where''s that oyster knife, Max?"
6915Who''d ever think of looking in that bum old coffee pot for anything worth while, tell me that, will you?"
6915Why do n''t you show up?
6915Wonder what he wants with us, Max?"
6915You had a purpose in doing that, I expect?"
6915You know, I suppose, that these shells are used for making pearl buttons and such things?"
6915You mark my words, Bandy- legs, he''s in a hole of some kind, and wants us to lend him a hand, see?"
6915You said I needed specs, did n''t you?
6915ai n''t I glad you saw me do it?
6915but you can give a guess, ca n''t you?"
6915ca n''t you sneak in now and crib the coffee pot?"
6915come off, wo n''t you?
6915demanded the other;"would n''t it be better for us to go on to camp, pick up a gun, and then join Jim here?"
6915did I go anywhere near that old haversack?"
6915do n''t we keep watch any more, or wake up one of the others to take our place?"
6915do you get that, Bandy- legs?"
6915do you mean to give him another trial-- is that it, Max?"
6915hold your horses a little while, ca n''t you, Owen?"
6915however do you know that, Max?"
6915listen to that for a starter, will you?"
6915t- t- think I w- w- wanted all the t- t- taste to m- m- myself?"
6915there, Toby, what under the sun are you staring at?"
6915think so, d- d- do you, Mister Know- it- all?
6915what d''ye mean?"
6915what do you know about it?"
6915who are you, and what''s the matter?"
19590About the car or the letter or what?
19590Am I a wild animal?
19590Am I out of the troop?
19590And Hervey?
19590And did you?
19590And so you joined as a stunt?
19590And so you think you could do this stunt?
19590And they have to save lives too, do n''t they?
19590And you did it? 19590 And you''ve always kept it?"
19590Are there wild animals in that camp?
19590Are we lost?
19590Are you going to open it?
19590Are you?
19590Back again? 19590 Because it all depends,"Roy continued;"a scout is n''t supposed to fight, is he?
19590Been over there, eh?
19590Bobbed it?
19590But did you see my image in the eyes of the dead man?
19590But he did n''t tell you where he had been-- or anything?
19590But you know I''m good on stunts? 19590 Can you send an animal by mail?"
19590Can you unscramble eggs?
19590Come in and see the Supreme Court in session, wo n''t you? 19590 Come up again, wo n''t you?"
19590Comfortable?
19590Cross come yet?
19590Did he actually mention the Gold Cross?
19590Did he reach the bus?
19590Did it do any good? 19590 Did n''t I tell you I''d fix it?"
19590Did you hear some one scream?
19590Did you see that crazy stick he was using for a cane?
19590Did_ you_--did you ever see anything like that?
19590Do n''t you suppose I know that?
19590Do you know a person can scream after he''s dead?
19590Do you know anything about the stage?
19590Do you know what one of his troop told me? 19590 Do you notice any connection between that article in the newspaper and the letter the dead man got from England?"
19590Do you think I''d let anybody?
19590Do you think a fellow like Willetts would go home? 19590 Do you think it''s easy to hang around camp all the time?
19590Do you think this is a picnic we''re on?
19590France?
19590Funny thing, did you ever hear how the eyes of a dead man reflect the last thing he saw? 19590 Good?
19590H''lo, Mr. Carroll,said Tom;"alone in your glory?"
19590H''lo, Slady, can we go with you?
19590H-- how soon are-- the rest of you coming back?
19590Has any one ever accused you of lying, Hervey?
19590Have we got a right to read it?
19590Have you got some matches?
19590He found a dead man last night, did n''t he?
19590He said I would n''t dare-- do you know what a four flusher is?
19590He sent a note after you? 19590 He''s alive?"
19590He-- he was n''t the kid who was knocked down by an auto?
19590Hervey say anything?
19590How about the remains of Pee- wee''s signal tower?
19590How about you, Roy?
19590How can a troop have a handwriting?
19590How do I know it?
19590How do you_ know_ he started for home?
19590How would you like to be out on the lake now?
19590Hunting for your handbook, Hervey?
19590I bet you licked the Germans, did n''t you?
19590I do n''t exactly blame you, Slade----"Me?
19590I do n''t know anything about it,said Gilbert;"I think you have to come back, do n''t you?"
19590I guess we''re not going to be killed after all, hey?
19590I''m glad we''re in Tyson''s troop, are n''t you?
19590If they ask me, that''s what I''ll tell''em,said Goliath,"hey?"
19590Is it him?
19590Is n''t it good to save lives?
19590Is that fellow that''s inside lying on the seat-- is he dead?
19590It is n''t everybody who can find you, is it?
19590It was damaged when it came here, was n''t it?
19590It was n''t on account of his hurt?
19590It''s good Tyson saved our lives, is n''t it?
19590It''s too late now, is n''t it?
19590Kid comfortable?
19590Maybe I''ll get to be a regular scout, hey?
19590Maybe he''ll get a reward, hey? 19590 Me?"
19590Me?
19590Me?
19590Mr. Carroll,said Tom,"Gilbert did n''t say anything about going up the mountain with me last night?"
19590No?
19590No?
19590Oh, it was a sort of a wager?
19590On the mountain? 19590 Or maybe a squirrel, huh?
19590Scream? 19590 See that lead pencil mark?
19590Shall we stroll down to supper?
19590Sit down, wo n''t you?
19590So? 19590 Some storm, hey, Tomasso?"
19590Started for the train, you mean?
19590That? 19590 The Gold Cross?"
19590The cross?
19590The crowd from the bus is all right then?
19590There''s a funny fellow inside; want to see him?
19590There''s always_ some_ way up a mountain.... Maybe the light we saw up there... let''s have a squint at that letter, will you?
19590Think you''re going to have a good time?
19590Walking my way?
19590Want to hear another?
19590Was it in their own handwriting?
19590We ca n''t do anything, can we?
19590We should worry about his name if he does n''t want to give it, hey?
19590We''d all be dead,''would n''t we?
19590We''re not going to let it worry our innocent young lives, anyway, are we, Gilly? 19590 Well, Gilbert, you got away with it, huh?"
19590Well, after all, who wants to tame a squirrel?
19590Well, how do you think you like Temple Camp?
19590Well, how do you think you like us up here?
19590Well, it''s beginning to look like a dam, is n''t it?
19590Well, then, we''ll all go?
19590Were you ever in a hospital?
19590What are they trying to hand me now?
19590What are we going to do for two hours, waiting for supper?
19590What are you going to do about it?
19590What can we do?
19590What did I tell you?
19590What do you mean?
19590What face?
19590What for?
19590What for?
19590What race?
19590What troop?
19590What was that?
19590What was what?
19590What''s a stunt?
19590What''s in a name?
19590What''s that?
19590What''s the matter with you kids? 19590 What''s this?
19590What? 19590 What?"
19590When did you suppose? 19590 When was it he came here?"
19590When?
19590Where did that big feller go?
19590Where did they run into him?
19590Where do you suppose this tree came from?
19590Where is he, anyway?
19590Where is he?
19590Where you been, Slady? 19590 Where''s Gilbert?"
19590Where''s Hervey?
19590Where''s our wandering boy to- night?
19590Where-- what-- where-- is-- it-- anyway?
19590Where-- where-- th-- the dickens-- is north?
19590Who are you?
19590Who dived?
19590Whose car is this, anyway?
19590Whose car is this? 19590 Why do n''t you tell him yourself, Hervey?"
19590Why was n''t it?
19590Why?
19590Will we get to that camp soon?
19590Will you help him to get the medal-- Tyson?
19590Willetts is the name? 19590 Would n''t_ know_ it?"
19590Yes, my boy,said one of the scoutmasters;"what is it?"
19590Yes?
19590Yes?
19590You call me a bluffer?
19590You do n''t call this luck, do you?
19590You do n''t suppose that''s true, do you?
19590You know I''m Harlowe?
19590You mean he was just fooling you about the medal?
19590You mean if the average is small?
19590You think I''d bust a resolution? 19590 You''ll go back?"
19590You-- you know?
19590About Willetts?"
19590All safe and sound, are you?"
19590And where was the lumbering old bus?
19590And where was the originator of it?
19590Are you game to skirt the lake?
19590Are you lost, or what?"
19590But how came the light there?
19590But where were you?
19590But will you listen to me if I tell you the whole of that story-- the whole business?
19590CHAPTER XXVI LOVE ME, LOVE MY DOG"Where did you find the hat?"
19590Ca n''t you wait two hours?"
19590Can I go?
19590Can you sprint?
19590D''you see?
19590Denny?"
19590Did Harlowe, therefore, climb the mountain to_ escape_ man or to_ seek_ man?
19590Did n''t you, Gilly?"
19590Did n''t you?
19590Did you ever kill anybody?"
19590Did you not know that eagles live on mountain crags?
19590Did you not know that the shriek of the eagle must have been from the mountain in the north?
19590Do n''t you know anything about your troop''s affairs?
19590Do you feel like telling me the rest now?
19590Do you know him?"
19590Do you see it?
19590Do you think I need a train?
19590Do you think it would look good on my hat?"
19590Even if you-- if you apologized-- I wouldn''t----""Apologize?
19590Ever hear of anything like that?
19590Ever see a person who has suffered violent death, Hood?"
19590Got any candy?"
19590Had he called for help?
19590Have you any theory of just how it happened?"
19590Have you it with you?"
19590He could see, just see, those clear gray eyes, honest, reckless, brave...."Yes, Hervey?"
19590Hear it?"
19590Helping?
19590Hervey Willetts?"
19590Hey, Hervey?
19590How about you, Hervey?
19590How about you, Roy?
19590How could he tell Tom Slade of this frightful thing?
19590How''s that?"
19590I bet you were never crazy, were you?"
19590I found Aaron Harlowe''n that''s enough, hain''t it?"
19590I guess I will, hey?"
19590I guess that''s what you''d call a racer, now, hain''t it?"
19590I knew if I could get to the log-- did you see the log?"
19590I know who you are; you''re boss, ai n''t you?"
19590I think it just possible he intended-- Come inside, wo n''t you?
19590I''d like to know what went on inside his head, would n''t you?"
19590I''m going to follow that trail up a ways----""To- night?"
19590I''ve seen more broken hearts here at camp than broken heads.... You''re a new troop, are n''t you?"
19590I-- I can hike to Jonesville, ca n''t I?
19590If it had not been for this tree the boat would have been borne upon the flood, with what tragic sequel who shall say?
19590It''s got bunged up a little, hey?"
19590Let''s see, how many lives have you got left now?"
19590Lost, strayed or stolen?
19590Missed the train, eh?
19590More merit badges?"
19590Next week?
19590Now you know how to see a dark thing in the dark....""Do you know how to tell time with a clothespin?"
19590Page 190]"So?
19590Pretty soon one of the curtains opened and a voice said,"What''s all the danger about?"
19590Reaching Mr. Carroll, he asked in a cheery undertone,"May I use one of your scouts for a little while?"
19590Reminds you of the League of Nations in session.... H''lo, Shorty, what are you here for?
19590See?
19590See?
19590See?
19590See?"
19590See?"
19590Should he despatch the remainder of the tomato into his mouth, or at the bulletin board?
19590Should he go on with this thing and see it through?
19590Slade did n''t try to lure you back with hints about such a thing?"
19590Slade?"
19590So he just said,"Not hurt much, huh?
19590So he''s a hero, ai n''t he?"
19590Storm was a good thing after all, huh?"
19590Take me?
19590Take us on the lake, Slady?"
19590Takes a long time to get a habit out of your nut, does n''t it?
19590The annual electrical show?"
19590The question was, had this happened, and if so, had the bus reached the fatal spot?
19590Understand?"
19590Want to hear more?
19590Want to see it?
19590Want to see it?"
19590Was it too late?
19590We''ll sit in one of those old cars, hey?"
19590We''ll_ all_ go, what do you say?
19590Were you in the swamp?
19590What do you say, Gilly?
19590What do you say?"
19590What else?
19590What had the victim thought of, while going down-- down?
19590What sort of a scout are you?
19590What''d''you say, Hoody?
19590What''s that for?"
19590What''s the news?"
19590Where he went, I do n''t know----""You_ do n''t_?"
19590Who shall say what good angel prompted him to look behind?
19590Who''s this fellow?"
19590Why bother more about that?
19590Why did you not face into the wind and you would have headed north?
19590Why make a fuss about it?
19590Will you come and see me cop the cross?"
19590Would you let any fellow call you a Camp- fire Girl-- would you?
19590Would you take a double dare if you were me?
19590Yet what could he do?
19590You do n''t think I''m a liar, do you?
19590You know about that?"
19590You know how much money we have in our treasury, do n''t you?"
19590You know-- do you-- I''m square-- yes?"
19590You notice I gave the compass to Roy?
19590You see it now in its true light, do n''t you?
19590You see?"
19590You were disobedient and insubordinate, and that led to-- what?"
19590You wo n''t take a dare, hey?
19590he urged,"and then?"
18180A killyloo bird''s?
18180A scout is observant, hey?
18180A thrush?
18180A turtle?
18180A turtshplsh-- can''t you hearshsph?
18180A what?
18180A which?
18180Almost an Eagle fool, hey?
18180Am I going to see my mother and father?
18180And do you mean to tell me that a scout can be any more of a scout than that-- an Eagle Scout?
18180And his stocking?
18180And there''s just the one way to get there, is that it?
18180And when you whistled we came and got you, hey? 18180 And will you clap?"
18180And will you prove it for me?
18180Anything doing, Hervey?
18180Are n''t you coming back to camp with me?
18180Are you bringing the bird?
18180Are you going up there, Slady?
18180Are you sure this is the right mountain?
18180Asbestos?
18180Can he get higher than the top if he has a balloon?
18180Cantshunderstand Englsphish?
18180Did either of you fellows do that?
18180Did either of you fellows do that?
18180Did n''t you ever sail up the Hudson?
18180Did n''t you ever see one before?
18180Did n''t you see it yet?
18180Did you ever hear any one say that there is more than one way to kill a cat?
18180Did you ever kill a councilman?
18180Did you see anything beside the bird?
18180Did you see that bird that Tom Slade got? 18180 Do you know Tom Slade?"
18180Do you know what I think I''ll do, Slady?
18180Do you know where there are any wild animal tracks?
18180Do you know who is the smartest fellow in this camp?
18180Do you want to see it? 18180 Do you want to see those tracks I found?
18180Does-- does it mean I ca n''t have the badge?
18180Eagle fell asleep at the switch, did n''t you, Eagle?
18180Eagle with clipped wings, hey?
18180Ever make one of those willow whistles? 18180 Everybody''ll be sure to see it, wo n''t they?"
18180Gee whiz, if he does n''t care for food what_ does_ he care for?
18180Getting all cleared up?
18180Hang on like a bulldog, hey?
18180Have a heart, Slady, and wait a minute, will you?
18180Have you brought any one else up here?
18180Have you got a trail-- any tracks?
18180He fell all over himself, hey?
18180He''s a peach of a scout, hey?
18180Hear that?
18180Help us take down this troop pole, will you?
18180Herve,he said,"I do n''t suppose you ever tried your hand at keeping a secret, did you?
18180Hervey Willetts, he''s a hero, is n''t he?
18180Hervey,said he,"do you know what kind of tracks those were you followed?"
18180How do we know what was under the mackinaw jacket?
18180How many merit badges have you got, anyway, Mr.--Slady?
18180How much good has it done you trying for it?
18180I bet all my troop will like me then, wo n''t they? 18180 I bet he''s got as much as a hundred dollars, has n''t he?"
18180I bet you do n''t care about tracks-- do you?
18180I bet you do n''t shake all over when Mr. Temple speaks to you, do you?
18180I bet you''re smart, ai n''t you?
18180I could n''t pin it on there very well, could I?
18180I do n''t mean just exactly where, but do you know a good place to hunt for any? 18180 I guess they were right when they said you''d be a good guide, philosopher, and friend, hey?"
18180I mean another that has something to do with that?
18180I''d like to know what that is?
18180I''d make a good sneak thief, hey?
18180If I win the Eagle you''ll say so, wo n''t you?
18180In the village?
18180Is it architecture or cooking or interpreting or one of those?
18180Is it safe to stop here?
18180Is n''t Temple Camp getting famous? 18180 Is that fair to the troop, Hervey?
18180Is that what you have to do to be a second- class scout, Skinny? 18180 It must be about tracking, hey?"
18180It''s a turtle-- t- u- r- t- e- l-- I mean l- e-- can''t you understand English?
18180Just once-- will you?
18180Like every story, hey?
18180Looks as if a jack- knife had been at work around here, huh? 18180 Maybe if I was n''t a- scared I''d ask him to look at the tracks too, hey?
18180Maybe you do n''t even care if I tell them what you did?
18180Maybe you do n''t know what kind of an animal made these tracks, maybe, hey?
18180Maybe you''ll get that canoe some day, hey?
18180No one is in this but just you and I, hey?
18180Now I can prove I''m a second- class scout by my badge, ca n''t I?
18180Now for the buried treasure, hey, Slady?
18180Oh, I did n''t exactly commit a murder,the other laughed,"but I fell down, Sla-- you do n''t mind my calling you Slady, do you?"
18180Oh, you mean about guides?
18180Old top, hey?
18180Once a scout, always a scout, hey?
18180See it?
18180See?
18180So you see I''ve been pretty busy since I''ve been here, too busy to talk to interviewers, hey? 18180 Some climb, hey?"
18180Some excitement, hey?
18180Some rags, hey?
18180Sounds like tomato, hey?
18180Still after the Eagle, huh? 18180 Suppose while I''m doing it I should decide I''d rather do something else?
18180Terrible Hustler? 18180 The canoe?"
18180The highest honor, that''s the Eagle award, is n''t it?
18180They''re not going to put you through a lot of book sprints, are they?
18180They''re_ real_ tracks, ai n''t they? 18180 Think I will?"
18180Tom Slade is wrong for once; how about that? 18180 Up on that mountain, maybe, hey?"
18180Was n''t it?
18180We''re going to sneak up the back way, hey?
18180Well, I''ll be there to tell them different, wo n''t I, Skinny, old boy?
18180Well, are you willing to help me or not?
18180Well, how do you want me to help you?
18180Well, if you ca n''t keep a badge do you think you can keep a secret? 18180 Well, if you were in my place, where would you go to look for a trail?
18180Well, then I''d better get busy hunting for some tracks, had n''t I? 18180 Well, what do you think of eagles now?"
18180Well, what''s on your mind?
18180Well, you want the Eagle badge, do you?
18180Were you in France?
18180What canoe is that, Alf?
18180What did you do?
18180What did you quit?
18180What did_ he_ say-- Tom Slade?
18180What do you know about this?
18180What do you mean to do with her now that you''ve got her?
18180What do you suppose_ I_ care? 18180 What do you think you''re doing here?
18180What gate?
18180What good is he?
18180What is it?
18180What is it?
18180What kind of pie?
18180What more do you want?
18180What''ll I do with this eagle flag?
18180What''ll we do with him? 18180 What''s on your mind, Skinny?"
18180What''s that belt made out of?
18180What''s that? 18180 What''s the good of my going?
18180What''s the matter with Tomasso?
18180What''s the matter with old Hickory Nut?
18180What''s the use?
18180When my soul burst forth in gladness, hey? 18180 When you''re asleep?"
18180Where did you get that scout suit, Tomasso?
18180Where is it?
18180Where?
18180Why? 18180 Will you go with me all the way up to where the mountain begins-- will you?"
18180Will you promise that you''ll make good? 18180 Will you-- will you take me out in it?"
18180Yes, and what are you doing here, Alf?
18180Yop,he called back;"did you see his nobs fly away?
18180Yop,said Tom;"what do you think of it?"
18180You all right?
18180You and I both fell down, hey? 18180 You call me a fool?"
18180You did n''t even tell them I saved that little bird, did you?
18180You did n''t happen to notice those letters up there, did you?
18180You did n''t happen to see that canoe in Council Shack, did you?
18180You fellows going home soon?
18180You going to be on hand at five?
18180You going to hang around, Slady?
18180You got stung when you made a prophecy about me, did n''t you?
18180You heard them call me a dare- devil, did n''t you?
18180You know about good turns, do n''t you?
18180You mean a sub- division?
18180You mean stalking?
18180You mean you''re_ sure_ I will?
18180You mean you''ve won thirteen more since you''ve been here?
18180You see I''m all through bird study,Hervey said with amusing artlessness,"so I think you''d better adopt Erastus-- is that the way you say it?"
18180You think he will?
18180You want what you want when you want it, do n''t you?
18180You would n''t drop a trail after you once picked it up, would you? 18180 You''ve got the bird badge,"Tom said, smiling a little;"ca n''t you guess?"
18180You_ guess?_ I bet you''ve got the Gold Cross. 18180 _ Positive?_""That''s what I said."
18180_ You''re not?_Hervey asked in puzzled dismay.
18180( Laughter)"I wonder how many of you scouts who are down for these awards realize what the awards mean?
18180A hunk of candy?"
18180A mind reader?"
18180Ai n''t they?"
18180Am I right?"
18180And they''ll surely let me be a second- class scout now, wo n''t they?"
18180And they''re_ mine_, ai n''t they?
18180Anyway, how did_ you_ happen to come here?"
18180Are you a second- class scout?"
18180Are you game?"
18180Are you going to give me a tip about some tracks?"
18180Are you lost?"
18180Are you willing to risk your life-- again?"
18180At all events, what other explanation was there?
18180Back to the crags for him, hey?
18180Because I found them?
18180But you ai n''t, are you?"
18180CHAPTER V WHAT''S IN A NAME?
18180Can you balance a scout staff on your nose?"
18180Can you beat that?"
18180Can you give me a tip?"
18180Come now, is n''t that right?"
18180Could it be?
18180Could it really mean anything in connection with that lost child?
18180Did you ever have a bicycle?"
18180Do n''t mind if I come along with you, do you?
18180Do n''t mind if I stroll along with you a little way, do you?
18180Do n''t you know that aviators discover trails that even hunters never knew about before?
18180Do you know what those letters might possibly stand for?"
18180Do you know what you did, you clumsy old ice wagon?
18180Do you realize what you have done?"
18180Do you think you can do that?"
18180Do you want to see how I did it-- do you?"
18180Do you want to see it?"
18180Do you want to see me follow them again?
18180Ever follow a woodchuck-- or a coon?
18180First off I was a- scared to ask_ you?_""Tracks are my middle name, Alf."
18180Good I wo n''t have to, hey?"
18180Good idea, hey?"
18180H.?"
18180His patrol colors?
18180How far up are you going to follow the tracks?"
18180How many guesses do I have?"
18180How many of those things do you remember now?
18180How will your father feel about the bicycle he had looked forward to giving you?
18180How would he get down with it through all that network of lower branches?
18180I bet you know everything in the handbook, do n''t you?"
18180I bet you like crullers?"
18180I bet you''re a hero, ai n''t you?"
18180I guess you think I''m kind of happy- go- lucky, do n''t you?"
18180I suppose of course you''re an Eagle Scout?"
18180I tried to manage my own campaign and now I''m stuck-- with a capital S.""How many merits have you got?"
18180I want you to do something for me, will you?"
18180I wonder what he thinks?
18180I''d look nice going up on the platform Saturday night?
18180I''d never win the reason badge, hey?"
18180I''ve got to make good to_ you_ as well as to my troop, have n''t I?"
18180I''ve got trails on the brain, have n''t I?"
18180Is it a trade mark or something like that?
18180Is it fair to yourself?
18180Is it true that there are wild cats up in these mountains?"
18180Is that the badge you meant that I forgot about?
18180It appears that your memory and your handbook study have not kept pace with your sprightly legs and arms----""How about his dirty face?"
18180Keep him?"
18180Look down there, hey?
18180Looks swell with all the bunting over it, does n''t it?"
18180Lost, strayed, or stolen?"
18180Maybe you think I just chose easy ones, hey?"
18180No accounting for tastes, hey?
18180No, sir, you ca n''t get above that-- no,_ siree_.... Do you mean to tell me that there''s anything higher in scouting than the Eagle award?"
18180Old Mother Nature''s got herself into a fine mess of a tangle through here, hey?
18180Right the first time, hey?
18180See them?
18180See this trickle of water?
18180See?
18180See?
18180See?
18180See?
18180See?"
18180See?"
18180Should the human scout be found wanting where this humble little hero had triumphed?
18180Some choice, hey?
18180That is n''t so bad, is it?"
18180That it?"
18180That the idea?"
18180That was n''t the right kind of a trail, was it?"
18180The astronomy badge?"
18180The scout Caruso, hey, Slady?
18180Then we can say you did it all by yourself, see?
18180These are_ my_ tracks, see?
18180They might say it was n''t a half a mile, hey?"
18180Think she''d stand for it?"
18180Want to hear me stand up in front of the class and say them?"
18180What are we going to meet under the elm tree for?"
18180What are you?
18180What care we?
18180What did you do, Alf, old boy?"
18180What does_ he_ care?
18180What is it?"
18180What would a happy- go- lucky nut like I am be doing, paddling around in a swell canoe like that?"
18180What''s in a name, hey?
18180What''s that streak of red, anyway?
18180What, then, was it?
18180When I get my mind on a thing.... Hey, Slady, what in the dickens is that streak of red in the nest?
18180Where is it?"
18180Where is it?"
18180Where''s your Eagle badge?"
18180Who''s running this show?
18180Who, then, was T. H.?
18180Why did you call me that name-- Asbestos?"
18180Will you ask your troop to clap?"
18180Will you clap when I go on?
18180Will you stay with me so you can tell them?
18180Yet if he cut the branch where it was thick, how could he handle it after it was detached?
18180You ca n''t blame the boys, Hervey, now can you?"
18180You have to track an animal, or something like that?
18180You know Pee- wee Harris-- the little fellow that fell off the springboard?"
18180You or I?"
18180You think it is?"
18180You''d think he''d get seasick, would n''t you?"
18180[ Illustration:"DID EITHER OF YOU FELLOWS DO THAT?"
54755An''do all the other byes feel the same way?
54755And what?
54755And you, Walt?
54755Anything new here?
54755Are the canoes ready?
54755Are there any more like that in here?
54755Are you ready?
54755Are you sure? 54755 Aw, Louis, slow her down, wo n''t you?"
54755But the negative is yours, is n''t it?
54755But the thief?
54755But wo n''t the cook get Mike when he comes back?
54755But-- but what does it mean?
54755Can you call him now?
54755Chief,he panted, saluting Avery,"may I-- may I see you alone for a few minutes?"
54755D- d- did you hear that?
54755Did I win?
54755Did n''t give yer a lock o''his hair fer a soovineer, did he, son?
54755Did you find the pin?
54755Did you see her all the time?
54755Do n''t you know that all worker bees are females? 54755 Do you call that a fish?"
54755Do you s''pose the big chief''s goin''to fire us for keepin''from freezin''to death? 54755 Do you see him, son?"
54755For heaven''s sake, Billy, what''s the matter?
54755Gee, ai n''t it great?
54755Gee, now I''ve got him what''ll I do with him?
54755Get him?
54755Git''em, pard?
54755Goin''ter bate Harrison, be yez?
54755Going to use tank development?
54755Good? 54755 Got any matches, Spud?"
54755Got your goat with you?
54755Guess your name is Upton, is n''t it?
54755Has one Scout any right to cast suspicion on the honor of another Scout? 54755 Him?
54755How about this?
54755How did you find out all this?
54755How do you expect to follow the line if you ai n''t got the box? 54755 How do you know it was a mink?"
54755How do you know?
54755How do you know?
54755How many flashlights did you make?
54755How the deuce do we know, when you have n''t told us your story yet? 54755 How will flapjacks and th''rest o''them trout hit yer fer a lining fer yer stomach, pard?"
54755How you feeling?
54755How''d yer like thet?
54755Huh, yez do, do yez?
54755If you please, is this Upper Chain?
54755Is he coming among us with the eyes of a paleface?
54755Is her papa a big chief?
54755Is this your first year?
54755Is ut now?
54755It''s quite primeval, is n''t it?
54755Just a trifle over time, do n''t you think, Upton? 54755 Looks bad, does n''t it?"
54755Me? 54755 Me?
54755Me? 54755 Meaning whom?"
54755Never hit th''trail t''th''big woods afore, did yer?
54755Never see a sunrise in th''mountains afore, did yer, sonny?
54755Now what do we do, chase along after her?
54755Now what do you fellers think we''d better do?
54755Now what''s the matter, you old gloom chaser?
54755Oi wonder now, have yez forgot the big pickerel yez have lyin''down on the raft? 54755 Oi wonder now, have yez got the price?
54755Paddling?
54755Pat, did Harrison ever have much luck in here?
54755Pat,he broke in abruptly,"did Mike ever follow you to Woodcraft?"
54755Red Pete?
54755Say, Hal, why do n''t you go own up to Dr. Merriam and ask him to try and put you right with the fellows?
54755Say, Tug, will you coach me?
54755Say, Walt, did he have light curly hair and a front tooth missing?
54755Say, bye, did ye tell the docther av the low- down thrick this Harrison has been afther playin''?
54755Say, did you know that he brought in another record fish this morning? 54755 Say, fellows,"said he,"you remember what was said about Pat Malone this morning?
54755Say, what''s chewing you, anyway?
54755Say,he added as he looked up,"what''s the matter with you, you grinning Cheshire cat?"
54755Say,he demanded,"what kind of a bunco steer are you givin''us, anyway?
54755Shall we have it now or wait till morning?
54755Shall you report to the big chief?
54755Shure, wud ye be takin''th''bread an''butter out av the mouth av a poor worrkin''man?
54755So the big chief( that''s what we call the doctor) has made a Delaware of you? 54755 So you do n''t take any stock in the bear?"
54755So you think that''s pretty good, do you, Jim?
54755Sons of the Lenape, do I speak truly?
54755Tell me, bye, what''s this about catchin''the biggest fish at Woodcraft Camp?
54755Thafe, is ut?
54755Think you can be respectful to your elders?
54755This is n''t to be another fight?
54755Walt or the loon?
54755Walt, did Pat show you his fishing ground?
54755Walt, you ai n''t foolin'', are you? 54755 Walter,"said he,"how should you like to spend next summer at Woodcraft?"
54755Want ter foight?
54755Was the hant t''hum?
54755We leave matters right where they were then, do we?
54755Well, Walt, what ought we to do?
54755Well, pard, how do yer like''em?
54755Well, what are you catching?
54755Well, what are you going to do about it?
54755Well, what''s the matter with a visit to the haunted cabin? 54755 Well?"
54755Well?
54755Wh- what do you mean?
54755Whar did ye say ye went when ye left th''canoe?
54755What about that second line we ai n''t run down yet?
54755What are you doing here?
54755What are you going to do?
54755What are you talking about?
54755What became of the girl?
54755What did I tell yer? 54755 What did I tell yer?"
54755What did the doctor do?
54755What do you know about it, Walter?
54755What do you mean?
54755What do you mean?
54755What do you take me for? 54755 What do you take me for?
54755What do you wonder?
54755What does Hal do with all his spending money?
54755What does it mean, Upton?
54755What for? 54755 What for?"
54755What in blazes was you trying to do anyway? 54755 What is it?
54755What is it?
54755What is it?
54755What is the honor of a Scout?
54755What is this about Mother Merriam''s pin?
54755What luck?
54755What shall we do now, make a break out of here?
54755What will we do, split up and you follow one line while I follow the other?
54755What would I read''em for, sonny? 54755 What would you do, Pat?"
54755What yer been doin''t''rile him up so?
54755What you goin''to do, Billy?
54755What you waking me up now for?
54755What''d you catch him with?
54755What''s that for?
54755What''s that?
54755What''s thet ye said, son?
54755What''s this, Upton?
54755What, do ye mane ter tell me ye be thinkin''Oi iver showed him where Oi was ketching the fish he bought?
54755Where did he get the name of Whisky Jack?
54755Where did those bees come from?
54755Where''ll we make it, right here?
54755Where''s the fire?
54755Which?
54755Who is he?
54755Who is she, Walt?
54755Whom do you suspect, Jim?
54755Whose are they?
54755Why did n''t you invite him t''breakfast, son?
54755Why not, Louis?
54755Will ye take these ter show Noo Yorrk th''latest shtoile in shoes?
54755Will yez do it now if Oi''ll show yez where thim big fish is an''how ter ketch''em?
54755Will you shake?
54755Would he follow you there now if you''d let him?
54755Yez think Oi''m a thafe, do yez?
54755You are quite sure you want to do this thing, Hal? 54755 You are sure this is Upper Chain?"
54755You did n''t suppose I was going to let you land Big Jim and I not be there, did you?
54755You do n''t suppose what?
54755You do n''t suppose-- you-- say, do you believe it could have been Hal Harrison?
54755You remember what Louis said to Billy the other day? 54755 You''re all right, Upton, and say, was n''t Louis a lulu?"
54755You''re not going to let him shoot, are you, Pat?
54755''What''ll you take for the boots, cookie?''
54755Absolutely sure?"
54755And Hal''s own tribesmen, was it fair to them to allow them to profit by points to which, though no fault of theirs, they had no right?
54755And if so what if he should happen to meet him alone in the woods?
54755And was not this evidence that he was making good?
54755Anyhow, who''s going to know if we do go out of bounds?
54755Are you on?"
54755As the launch was made fast Billy whispered,"Here comes Dr. Merriam; is n''t he a peach?"
54755Br- r- r- r, who says this is July?"
54755But that young gentleman looked so innocent as he inquired,"What''s your idea, Tug?"
54755But what has all this got to do with Moike?"
54755But why could n''t he have hired some one to put him next-- guide for him?"
54755By the way, Chip, do you know just which nails are missing from Pat''s boot, and which three were lacking in those prints?"
54755By the way, Upton, do you go in for athletics, besides boxing?"
54755CHAPTER XVII THE HAUNTED CABIN"What''s on this afternoon?"
54755Could he have overrun it?
54755Could he make it?
54755Could he meet it?
54755Could he save both?
54755Could he?
54755Could it be that Jim had disconnected the wires and was unable to fire the flash?
54755Could it be that the deer had enemies stalking it?
54755Could it be that the thief was really one of their number?
54755Did Red Pete suspect?
54755Did he look pleasant?
54755Did n''t I say it was Red Pete?
54755Did them books teach yer thet lightnin''whirl?
54755Did yer notice that scar on his shoulder?
54755Did-- did you put him up to it?"
54755Do n''t you remember?"
54755Do the other fellows know?"
54755Do you know anything about it?"
54755Do you s''pose they''ll come over this way?"
54755Does that beat it?"
54755Ever see one before?"
54755Everly?"
54755Funny about those boots of Pat''s, ai n''t it?
54755Ha, what was that?
54755Had he at last found the long lost clue?
54755Had he imagined it?
54755Had the animal taken fright?
54755Have an accident?"
54755Have n''t I given you proof enough?
54755Have you heard the news?"
54755He''s been in camp only three days, so what did you know of his powers of resource?
54755Hello, what''s this?"
54755Here we are, and the question is, What are we going to do about it?
54755How did you know that Allen there would be able to take care of himself, plunged unexpectedly into the water?
54755How far from the camp was he?
54755How much did you pay for the bunch?"
54755How should you like that for the last two or three weeks of your vacation?"
54755If you do n''t blab who''s going to know it?
54755If you have not-- ah, why try to describe it?
54755Is n''t he a Seneca, and are n''t the Senecas the enemies of the Delawares?"
54755Is n''t there somethin''else you''re interested in that you can go in for points on?"
54755Is this evidence enough for yer, warden?"
54755My first year?
54755Never was off of Broadway before, was you?
54755Now, are you going to punch my head or are you going to shake hands?"
54755Now, if Mike had been following you, and had seen that pin on the window sill would he have been likely to have picked it up and carried it off?"
54755On the impulse of a moment I run up there to have a look at him, and what do I find?
54755On the other hand had he any moral right to allow his fellow tribesmen to suffer through the dishonesty of which he held the proof?
54755Other fellows were all the time doing things, why should n''t he?
54755Ought I to tell?
54755Ought I to tell?"
54755Ought he to stay back as Tug had told him to?
54755Over and over till his brain grew weary he kept repeating the perplexing question,"Ought I to tell?
54755Read them books?"
54755Say, Hal, put us wise to that private preserve of yours, will you?"
54755Say, do I look like a tenderfoot?"
54755Say, fellows, Pat''s been hanging''round camp for the last three or four days; what do you suppose he''s after?"
54755Should he give it up and make the plunge for the Durant cutting?
54755Superstition''s a queer thing, is n''t it?"
54755Tell me, you rabbit- footed tenderfoot, have you got proof?"
54755The canoe had not leaked before-- what did it mean?
54755The prints are gone now, and if we had both pairs of boots here what good would they do us?
54755Think a bee''s goin''to take you by the hand and lead you?"
54755To become a bearer of tales?
54755To get the''hant''?"
54755To go report what he had learned?
54755Turning once more to the captive the speaker asked:"Paleface, are you prepared to stand the test?"
54755Want to come in with me while I develop, Hal?"
54755Was he Scout enough to hold his course for two miles through that tangle of wilderness?
54755Was it possible that that was only eight weeks before?
54755Was it really necessary after all to so humiliate himself?
54755Was that Joe Brown''s answering signal?
54755We''ll get Louis Woodhull to go with us, wo n''t we, Walt?"
54755Well, what''s the matter with us three hanging together to beat Hal at his own game?
54755What could it mean?
54755What did his honor as a Scout demand of him?
54755What did you find, Tug?"
54755What do n''t you suppose?"
54755What do you s''pose I''ve been coachin''you for all summer?"
54755What do you say if we go back?"
54755What do you say, fellows?"
54755What do you say?"
54755What do you think about opening that bee tree?"
54755What do you think of that?"
54755What for?"
54755What kind av a low- down hedgehog do ye take me fer, anyway?"
54755What luck?"
54755What might yer name be an''whar be yer from?"
54755What more do you want?"
54755What roight have th''loikes av thim ter be callin''me a thafe jist because Oi''m poor an''live in the woods?
54755What roight have they to be callin''me a thafe, an''me wid no chance ter say a wurrd?
54755What show''s a bye loike me got, anyway?
54755What was he waiting so long for?
54755What was the matter with him?
54755What was the matter with them down there?
54755What was the matter?
54755What we goin''to do about that?"
54755What were those tales he had heard of the cabin being haunted?
54755What''d we better do about it?"
54755What''d we build that lean- to for?
54755What''s the matter with us three working together on this thing?"
54755Where did you learn to use your fists?"
54755Where lay the path of duty?
54755Where was the camp?
54755Where''s that new stroke that''s going to win the championship?
54755Which way do we go?"
54755Who are you?"
54755Who had stolen Mother Merriam''s pin?
54755Who is it?"
54755Who says there is n''t some class to us as scouts?"
54755Who?
54755Who?
54755Why could n''t he do something big like that?
54755Why did n''t I think of it before?
54755Why did n''t Jim whoop when he found the tree as he had agreed to do?
54755Why did n''t you say so before?"
54755Why did the smoke seem so much thicker down there to the east at the very foot of Scraggy itself?
54755Why had n''t he remembered Jack Appleby''s wireless outfit before?
54755With feverish haste he pounded out in the Morse code,"Is this you, Brown?"
54755Wonder what''s up?"
54755Would Tug never hit it up?
54755Would he save them?
54755Would the doctor be able to bring help in time?
54755Would the flash never go?
54755Would they come for him in the morning or would he have to find his way in alone?
54755Would they never hear?
54755Would they never hear?
54755Would they never hear?
54755Ye will kape ut ter yerself now, will ye not?"
54755You addle- pated little scamp, when will you ever learn that whatever risks a man may run himself he has no right to involve others in danger?
54755You do n''t suppose he''d be such a fool as to have it lying around in plain sight, do you?"
54755You''ll be back, of course?"
10688''O better that her shattered hulk should sink beneath the wave,''eh?
10688A week? 10688 All ready now?"
10688All snake holes?
10688And Agony,begged Bengal,"may I have a lock of your hair to keep?"
10688And what about Carmen?
10688And who got it last year?
10688Are all assembled?
10688Are n''t there going to be any who live to grow old? 10688 Are n''t you afraid to touch it?"
10688Are n''t you glad we did n''t stay here?
10688Are we supposed to get into our bloomers right away?
10688Are you our neighbor from Avernus? 10688 Are you really willing to divide your bloomers?
10688Are you sick? 10688 At half past six in the evening?
10688Beh- hold, it is I; w- who else could it be?
10688Behold, it is I; who else_ could_ it be?
10688Bengal Virden in the same tent with Claudia Peckham? 10688 Bengal?"
10688But what are we going to do about it?
10688But where was Bagdad?
10688But, my dear, why did n''t you wait and let your father drive you down in the morning?
10688Ca n''t we do something?
10688Can I go with only one stocking on?
10688Carmen, did n''t it ever occur to you that Jane was making fun of you when she said she would bring blankets for two? 10688 Come, Migwan, are you going to day- dream here forever?
10688Could n''t they?
10688Could n''t we put two of us together?
10688Could n''t we sing a bit for her?
10688Did I look glum? 10688 Did I scare you, girls?"
10688Did anything ever smell so good?
10688Did n''t you bring any blankets at all?
10688Did n''t you go in?
10688Did somebody get Tiny Armstrong''s red striped stockings?
10688Did you ever see anything so funny as that coral snake business of hers?
10688Did you have a good night''s sleep?
10688Did you know,confided Bengal, with a fresh burst of giggles,"that Pecky shaves?"
10688Did you see her demonstrating the Australian Crawl yesterday in swimming hour? 10688 Did you see that girl who came running into the dining- room this morning with her middy halfway over her head?"
10688Do n''t you just_ adore_ her?
10688Do n''t you know that snakes climb trees?
10688Do n''t you think I can?
10688Do n''t you think it does?
10688Do n''t you think it''s unladylike to have your muscles all hard and developed?
10688Do new girls ever win the Buffalo Robe?
10688Do you live in the Avenue or the Alley?
10688Do you live in the east or in the west?
10688Do you really mean that there are girls here from Australia and India?
10688Do you suppose he will speak to me?
10688Do you suppose they''re going to throw us into the river?
10688Do you think we''ll have to sit here all night?
10688Do you want to ruin our stunt for us? 10688 Does n''t he look pathetic, with his little paws held out that way?"
10688Does n''t it look civilized, though, after what we''ve just experienced? 10688 Edwin Langham?"
10688For goodness''sake, are you going to preach all night? 10688 Good morning, Agony, whither bound so early, and what means that portentous frown?"
10688Goodness, who was she?
10688Had n''t I better help you paddle?
10688Had n''t you better throw it out and get some fresh? 10688 Have you noticed that there is something queer about Agony lately?"
10688Have you seen the hippopotamus over there in the bow? 10688 Have you taken any notes yet?"
10688How about Sacajawea, I''d like to know?
10688How can you bear to touch such a thing?
10688How can you tell a poisonous toadstool from a harmless one?
10688How could you do it?
10688How did it happen?
10688How did you ever make a fire at all?
10688How did you happen to fall into that ravine?
10688How do the other two get along with her?
10688How does it come that I have never met you before, Miss Peckham? 10688 How long have you been spying upon my movements, Miss Virtue?"
10688How long is he going to stay?
10688How soon are you going?
10688How soon can you arrange to go?
10688I suppose you swim?
10688I wonder what that house is for?
10688I wonder what the special announcement is tonight?
10688I''m all in a position to do it-- see?
10688Is everybody gone on a trip?
10688Is he going along with us on the canoe trip?
10688Is it a bird?
10688Is n''t Miss Peckham a prune?
10688Is n''t it be- yoo- tiful?
10688Is n''t she lovely?
10688Is n''t she lovely?
10688Is n''t she stunning in that coral silk sweater?
10688Is n''t she wonderful?
10688Is n''t there some other place where we can camp, Jo,asked Migwan,"and let these blossoms live?
10688Is that someone calling to us?
10688Is that the only kind of women you admire?
10688Jane,said Agony seriously,"if I promise not to tell Mrs. Grayson this time will you promise never to do this sort of thing again?
10688Jo?
10688Katherine,said Miss Judy feelingly,"_ vous et moi_ we speak the same language,_ n''est- ce pas_?"
10688Let me take your knife, will you please, Agony?
10688Like?
10688Meaning?
10688Must you go so soon?
10688No clothes?
10688Not really?
10688Now what?
10688O Jane,cried Agony,"you have n''t been over at that boys''camp, have you?
10688O Miss Judy,they called to her,"what''s happened?"
10688Oh, Agony, do n''t you understand? 10688 Oh, Miss Judy, please, please, ca n''t we live in the Alley?"
10688Oh, are you a Camp Fire girl?
10688Oh, do you know_ The Desert Garden_?
10688Oh, please, Tiny, may I do this one dive?
10688Oh, what are they?
10688Oh, what_ is_ it?
10688Oh, where is my other stocking?
10688Oh,she said,"did you hear it?"
10688Please, wo n''t you, Bengal dear?
10688Serenade her, I mean; just a few of us who are used to singing together?
10688Shall you go to Japan too, if your father goes?
10688That''s easy,laughed Migwan,"Who but Pocahontas?"
10688That''s way up near the bungalow, is n''t it?
10688The Jamaica ginger,asked Carmen''s thin voice in a bewildered tone,"what shall I do with it?
10688The view is exquisite here,_ n''est- ce pas_? 10688 Then why did you tell Carmen you would sleep with her?"
10688Then you deliberately deceived her?
10688Then, what will you do when you land, Sahwah?
10688This is Topsy- Turvy Day, do n''t you remember? 10688 Wants who to go on a canoe trip with her?"
10688Was n''t this the wildest evening we ever put in?
10688Was your suitcase on it?
10688Was''Pocahantas''just a nickname?
10688Well, and what if I did?
10688Well, what do you expect me to do about it?
10688Well, what if I did?
10688Well, what if I have?
10688Well, what of it?
10688Were n''t you horribly scared?
10688What are they blowing the bugle in the middle of the night for?
10688What are we going to do?
10688What business is it of yours, anyway?
10688What can be the matter?
10688What do they mean by living''in the Alley''?
10688What do you mean?
10688What do you think of_ her_?
10688What is he like?
10688What is her name?
10688What is it now?
10688What is it?
10688What is it?
10688What is it?
10688What is it?
10688What is it?
10688What is it?
10688What is that?
10688What is the Buffalo Robe, please?
10688What is the book?
10688What is the matter? 10688 What kind of a costume do I wear?"
10688What nationality was Sinbad, anyhow?
10688What on earth?
10688What was it?
10688What was that?
10688What''s happened?
10688What''s that loud cheeping noise?
10688What''s that?
10688What''s the excitement?
10688What''s the mater, Agony, have you a headache again?
10688What''s the matter with everybody?
10688What''s the matter with her?
10688What''s the matter with the rest of the folks in Avernus-- can''t they make beds either?
10688What''s the matter, Monty, is your load too heavy for you?
10688What''s the matter, Tiny?
10688What''s the matter, ca n''t you make your bed?
10688What''s the matter?
10688What''s the matter?
10688What''s the matter?
10688What''s the matter?
10688What''s the matter?
10688What''s the matter?
10688What''s the matter?
10688What''s the use of rushing so, anyway?
10688Whatever can this be?
10688When is he coming?
10688When is he coming?
10688Where are we to be?
10688Where is Miss Amesbury?
10688Where is my middy?
10688Where on earth have you been? 10688 Where''s Jane Pratt?"
10688Where''s Tiny?
10688Where''s my flashlight, Katherine?
10688Which tent?
10688Who am I to talk of a''nice sense of honor''to Bengal Virden?
10688Who is Mary Sylvester?
10688Who is Pom- pom?
10688Who is it?
10688Who is my girl, and what is her nickname?
10688Who is n''t here yet?
10688Who is the girl sitting third from the end on this side?
10688Who was it?
10688Who wrote it?
10688Who''s going to make them?
10688Who''s gone south with my shoes?
10688Who''s your councilor?
10688Who?
10688Whoever heard of a snake climbing a tree?
10688Why are n''t you in bed with the rest of the infants?
10688Why are you tying up your ponchos that way? 10688 Why did n''t we think of that before?
10688Why did you come in that way?
10688Why did you put your bathing suit on when you did n''t have any intention of going into the water?
10688Why do n''t you share your own blankets with her, if you''re so concerned about her?
10688Why not capsize some distance out in the water and swim ashore?
10688Why not?
10688Why so pensive?
10688Why, what does she do?
10688Will she really send you home?
10688Will somebody please show me how to make a bed?
10688Will somebody please tell me where my middy is?
10688Will someone tell_ me_ where the other leg of my bloomers is?
10688Will you be my sleeping partner for the first overnight trip that we take?
10688Will you do it for me if you wo n''t do it for Miss Peckham?
10688Will your father think I''m dreadfully silly?
10688Wo n''t she suspect what we''re going to do if I borrow them?
10688Would you like to get in a canoe with some of the girls?
10688Yes, where are you?
10688Yes?
10688You know a great deal about the woods, do n''t you?
10688You were to arrive by automobile at Green''s Landing this noon, were you not, and come across the river in the mail boat? 10688 Your what?"
10688_ The Lost Chord_? 10688 *****Why, where is everybody?"
10688After all, why not let them think that?
10688All from picked families, eh?
10688And have you some Jamaica ginger?
10688And the flower that was so determined to blossom that it grew in the desert and bloomed there?"
10688And the tent is still standing?"
10688Are n''t you going to get up to see the Stunts?"
10688Are the other girls on already?"
10688Are you coming?"
10688Are you our Councilor?"
10688Are you sick?"
10688Assuming a timid, shrinking demeanor, and speaking in a high, shrill voice, she piped,"Mother, may I go out to swim?"
10688But the old chief says sadly,''Why will you be such a tomboy, my child?''"
10688By the way, how is she getting on?
10688By the way, what are_ you_ doing here?"
10688By the way, where_ is_ Gladys?
10688CHAPTER V ON THE ROAD FROM ATLANTIS"Would you like to come along?"
10688CHAPTER X TOPSY- TURVY DAY"Why, where_ is_ camp?"
10688CHAPTER XII THE STUNT''S THE THING"Where would a shipwreck look best, right by the dock, or farther up the shore?"
10688Ca n''t you fix it so that I can be in your tent this year?"
10688Can it be possible that it is only a mass of dead chalk and not a ball of burnished silver?
10688Can it be that you are really his cousin?
10688Could she give it up-- could she bear to see their admiration turn to scorn?
10688Could she still take the story back, she wondered, and tell it as it really had been?
10688Did she have a withering touch now?
10688Do n''t you feel that way about it, too?"
10688Do n''t you feel that way, Agony?"
10688Do n''t you know that it''s terribly bad taste to make fun of people''s personal blemishes?"
10688Do you like it?
10688Do you mind if I break up the camp color scheme for one day?"
10688Do you want anything?"
10688Had the Lone Wolf also heard them talking about her?
10688Have you read_ The Silent Years_?"
10688How could she ever humble herself before Jane Pratt and witness Jane''s keen relish of her downfall?
10688How did you ever manage to think of it, Migs?"
10688How do you get such a''nice sense of honor''as you have?
10688How do you suppose he ever got in?"
10688I know one of you must be Agony, I recognize her alto, but who are the rest of you?
10688I suppose she was born in Bengal?"
10688Is it a contraction of Sarah Ann?"
10688Is it not so?"
10688It''s about six miles to Atlantis-- would you care to walk that far?
10688Katherine, you wo n''t forget to get that gaudy blanket off the Lone Wolf''s bed, will you?"
10688No?
10688Now if you will just let me show you--""Why you are putting that stout girl"--indicating Bengal--"in the stern of the canoe?
10688Now, do you say that a woman ca n''t go exploring as well as a man?"
10688Now, who''ll be Miss Peckham?"
10688Oh, dear, did you ever see anyone so funny as Katherine?"
10688Oh, my gracious, how can we ever stand him around here a week?"
10688Oh, wo n''t it be great fun when I do that in the stunt?
10688Oh- Pshaw looked timidly at the human Colossus standing in the middle of the tent, and inquired meekly,"Are you Miss Armstrong?
10688Require references and all that sort of thing?"
10688Shall I put it in the hot water bottle?"
10688Should she make a clean breast of it now and have nothing more to fear, or should she take a chance on Jo''s never mentioning it to Mary?
10688So you''ll give me your promise, wo n''t you, Bengal dear, that you will never mention this matter to anybody around camp?"
10688That''s the way it has always been with us Winnebagos, has n''t it?
10688The Elephant''s Child came in at the end with a fervent plea:"Please, ca n''t I be in Pom- pom''s tent_ this_ year?"
10688The Winnebagos?
10688The voice, the intonation, the expression, were Carmen Chadwick to a T. But how did the Alleys know about her attitude toward bathing?
10688The"who else_ could_ it be?"
10688Then the girl smiles demurely at him, and says coyly--""Why do n''t you speak for yourself, John?"
10688Then, turning to Mrs. Grayson, he asked plaintively:"Mother,_ why_ do we have to be afflicted with Jane Pratt year after year?
10688Then, turning to the man in the chair, she exclaimed,"There now, who said it was impossible?"
10688There was a pause, and then the other girl asked, somewhat hastily,"Who do you suppose will get the Buffalo Robe this year?"
10688Those are supposed to be the symptoms, are n''t they?"
10688Was it any wonder that Robert Allison, seeing her for the first time, should have exclaimed involuntarily,"Minnehaha, Laughing Water"?
10688Was it not possible that Mary had mentioned the robin incident in this letter?
10688Was it perhaps true after all?
10688Was n''t she funny, though, when I told her that father might have to go to Japan in the interests of his firm?
10688Was this the road she was going to travel; was this the direction in which she had set her face?
10688What are they all laughing at, I wonder?
10688What color did you say it was?"
10688What could she suspect?
10688What does the name mean?"
10688What for?"
10688What part of the country are you from?"
10688What shall I do?"
10688What''s the rest of your name?"
10688What_ can_ it be?"
10688Where is she?
10688Which one are you in?"
10688Who are you?
10688Who could the girl be?
10688Who has she in the tent with her?"
10688Who wants to come with me and see if we can find a cave?
10688Who wants to come with me?"
10688Who''s going to impersonate Tiny Armstrong?"
10688Who''s in her tent?"
10688Why had n''t she herself been the one to climb up and rescue that poor bird?
10688Will anyone have any more pudding?"
10688Wo n''t you please try?"
10688Would n''t you like to come along and keep me company?
10688You were n''t rummaging among her things, were you?"
10688You''re right near the path to the river, are n''t you?
10688You''ve noticed how kind of hairy her chin is, have n''t you?
10688asked the Doctor,"the two that have not moved underneath, as yet?"
10688said Agony firmly,"do n''t you_ dare_ do anything like that?
10688who else_ could_ it be?''"
12943Ah, then you are the young gentleman so brave who save the babee from being burn? 12943 Ai n''t you goin''to give us anything for telling you who it was?"
12943All right? 12943 An, yes, and you find the watch in your pocket?
12943And for the doctor''s prescription?
12943And it dropped out of your pocket?
12943And so this was what you sent to us for?
12943And the affair takes place the day after tomorrow?
12943And the description is correct also?
12943And the watch does not belong to you?
12943And we ai n''t goin''to get nothing?
12943And what do you make out the fellow was doing in the doctor''s cottage?
12943And who told you that we were going to hurt your farms by building the branch road? 12943 And you did all the work on her yourself?"
12943And you have not been anywhere near this place till just now?
12943And you have not seen him since?
12943And you know about the watch, too?
12943And you say that the lines I have just read were not written by him?
12943And you will be down?
12943And you wish to be a sort of middle man between me and the owner?
12943Are you all right, old man?
12943Are you sure you did not put it there yourself?
12943Are you sure? 12943 Better for all concerned, perhaps?
12943But how did I get hold of it, Dick? 12943 But how did you lose it?"
12943But why should they, Sheldon, especially as both poems are your own? 12943 But you do n''t know that she has gone for good?"
12943But you may do so at some other time?
12943But you want a serviceable boat, Jack?
12943But you want one?
12943But, Billy, what are Herring and Jim Jenkins doing together and what are they so interested about?
12943But, Mrs. Hamilton, why are you so interested in this matter?
12943By the way, did you find an owner for the watch?
12943Can it be the doctor after all?
12943Can you fix it?
12943Come and chuck us in the river, why do n''t you?
12943Could it not have been Merritt?
12943Could n''t you see that he had a cramp?
12943Could the young lady have dropped it when you met her at the fire?
12943Could you blame the poor unfortunates for wanting to shin up them and pick peaches and apples and everything else? 12943 Did Gabrielle do all these things?"
12943Did I?
12943Did any one else hear him, Art?
12943Did he put up a fight?
12943Did n''t I tell you I was bubbling all over with poetry?
12943Did n''t Jenkins say that a boy wearing the uniform of the Hilltops had told him and the rest that running the branch would hurt them?
12943Did n''t he seize you by the leg and shout that he had got you, and that you must give an account of yourself?
12943Did you carry it with you? 12943 Did you find a watch?"
12943Did you get him, Jack?
12943Did you see that?
12943Did you see which way the rascals went, J.W.?
12943Did you want to see me?
12943Did you?
12943Do n''t you think that a trip to some more lively spot for the rest of the summer would be advisable, Herring?
12943Do you know the number?
12943Do you mean to say I would lie for the sake of a watch?
12943Do you recognize any one there?
12943Do you remember a night or so ago when Billy Manners had the black eye?
12943Do you see him now?
12943Do you want him?
12943Do you?
12943Even if we do n''t take part I suppose we can go?
12943Fix it?
12943Funny about my getting that black eye the other night, too, was n''t it?
12943Got any news?
12943Have n''t I told him that he could get speed out of a canal- boat?
12943Have n''t you any corroborative evidence?
12943Have n''t you any idea? 12943 Have you the paper containing the poem handy, Percival?"
12943He can swim, ca n''t he?
12943He might do that, of course, but how did they get into the poem you had submitted two days before if he got the paper only this morning?
12943Hello, Pete, why did n''t you wait?
12943Hello, who is that?
12943Historical subject, eh? 12943 How I know where I have lose it?"
12943How did Herring happen to hit upon some other verses of mine which a paper up the state had stolen?
12943How did he get away, Jack?
12943How did the doctor know that we needed a picket?
12943How did you learn this, Watts?
12943How did you men get the idea that your farms were going to be injured?
12943How do you do, Sheldon?
12943How much do you want for it?
12943How should I know?
12943How was I to know that it was real?
12943I am in the detective service, and if I have the description of the article I can enquire who has lost one like it, do n''t you understand?
12943I suppose I can take this, Dick?
12943I suppose if there is no owner found for the watch it will go to you, Jack?
12943I wonder if it could have been the doctor? 12943 I wonder if it is the doctor walking in his sleep?"
12943I wonder if this is our street after all?
12943I wonder if we will have any more claimants?
12943I wonder what it is all about?
12943I wonder what it is?
12943I would n''t want to ride on it, would you, Pete?
12943If you want this matter settled, why do n''t you let him alone and allow him to go and get the doctor and have this matter arranged satisfactorily?
12943In the next tent?
12943In your pocket? 12943 Is that correct?"
12943It is convincing, is n''t it?
12943It was a gentleman''s watch, was it? 12943 It was lost somewhere in town, I suppose?"
12943May I ask you where and how you found it?
12943May I have a bench for a few days?
12943Me?
12943Me?
12943No, you did not, but who inserted the lines claimed by another person in the manuscript submitted? 12943 Number, please?"
12943Oh, we are satisfied,chuckled Billy, while Percival looked significantly at Jack, and said:"What did I tell you, Jack?
12943Our boys do not resort to such tricks?
12943Put what back, I wonder?
12943Shall I give you another sample?
12943So dey tried to hu''t Mistah Jack''s boat, did dey? 12943 So you have one, eh?"
12943So you thought you''d come here and make trouble for us?
12943That is all right, too, is n''t it?
12943That would be a great joke, would n''t it?
12943The babee?
12943The baby?
12943The number?
12943Then how about this?
12943Then you did not tell him of what occurred the other night?
12943Then you do not mean to make me arrest?
12943Then you do not read the Riverton paper?
12943Then you think that Herring may have been lying, Jack?
12943Then you were not talking to Jenkins and Calthorpe and the other squatters and telling them that we wanted to ruin their farms?
12943There is danger, is n''t there, Jack?
12943They wo n''t notice the difference?
12943This was since the fire?
12943Was he here at all to- day?
12943Well, and what then?
12943Well, what sort of watch did you find?
12943Well?
12943What are you doing to that boy?
12943What are you going to do with it? 12943 What are you going to do with that little gasolene engine that you used to run your little presses with?"
12943What do you see on it?
12943What do you think of that, Jack?
12943What do you think of that?
12943What evidence have you that I did these things that you charge me with doing?
12943What have you done with it?
12943What is it, Billy?
12943What is it, Billy?
12943What proof have you that I did? 12943 What sort did you lose?"
12943What sort of watch was it? 12943 What was it?"
12943What were you saying to Jenkins when Billy snapped this? 12943 What you say?"
12943What''s a little blow to fellows like us? 12943 When did you learn all this?"
12943When was that?
12943When was your poem published, Sheldon?
12943Where did you buy it? 12943 Where did you find this watch?"
12943Where did you lose it, Ma''am?
12943Where is Jenkins? 12943 Who are Jenkins and Calthorpe?"
12943Who are you?
12943Who gave you that notion?
12943Who is Bill? 12943 Who is in the next tent?"
12943Who is on the other side of the street?
12943Who told you that we were going to ruin your farms?
12943Who told you that?
12943Who told you this?
12943Why did n''t you go to the boy''s aid, Herring?
12943Why did n''t you keep still? 12943 Why should he?
12943Why would I want to get''em to trouble you for? 12943 Will you describe it to him?"
12943Will you describe the watch, please?
12943Will you kindly let me see the out- of- town paper you have, Herring?
12943Will you kindly read the entire poem?
12943With a light burning?
12943Would you kindly fetch it?
12943Yes, Madame, do you?
12943Yes, and what do you see behind where the man was?
12943Yes, but what about the watch? 12943 Yes, but who would do this, Sheldon?
12943Yes, it was very funny,said Jack,"but how did it get there?"
12943Yes, she was, but what business have I got making costly presents to a girl that I never saw before last night? 12943 Yes, yes, but who was the person who told you?"
12943You are one of the men who tried to stop us, are n''t you? 12943 You are sure it is American make?"
12943You are sure that you said nothing?
12943You are sure, Jack?
12943You could beat them, could n''t you, Jack?
12943You could sell it, I suppose? 12943 You did n''t say anything this morning?"
12943You do n''t want to go to the Academy, do you, Jack?
12943You have a boy named Sheldon, who is a dandy at running a motor- boat, have n''t you?
12943You know it was stolen?
12943You remember the watch with the diamonds on the case that your friend gave you? 12943 You think on the whole that it might be as well to go somewhere else for a few weeks?"
12943You were writing in those lines, were you not? 12943 You will know the number of the watch, of course?
12943You''re at the head of the ingineers, ai n''t ye?
12943''What was your father?''
12943Ah, I have lost mine, and would like to look at it to see if-----""How did you know it was a lady''s watch?"
12943Ah, do you mind showing it to me?
12943Ai n''t going to start a paper, are you?"
12943Am it so bad as all dat, sah?"
12943And also that you had not noticed these verses before when they were published in a town paper?
12943And one that occurred on the Hudson?
12943And you can run a motor- boat?"
12943And you did all the work on her yourself?"
12943And you do n''t know how it came in your pocket?"
12943And you have lost it?"
12943And, as I said before, what business have I making presents, costly or otherwise, to people I have just met?
12943Any running, jumping, or anything of that sort?
12943Are you afraid of it?"
12943Besides, who is going to arrest me in any such peremptory fashion as all that?
12943By the way, did you employ a detective, a rather self- important person, to find it for you?"
12943By the way,"with a sudden inspiration,"may I see the manuscript, sir?"
12943CHAPTER VI THE MYSTERY OF A GOLD WATCH"What have you got there, Jack?"
12943CHAPTER XX GETTING AT THE BOTTOM OF THINGS"What is it, Jack?"
12943Can you tell me that?"
12943Could I have picked it up at the fire, and not known anything about it?
12943Could n''t you have mislaid it?
12943Did n''t you put it in my pocket?"
12943Did you catch him?"
12943Did you observe that the first page had more on it than the others?
12943Did you send to the city for it?"
12943Do n''t you think you went very clumsily to work about it?"
12943Do you actually know the person who told you this?"
12943Do you intend to have any other besides aquatic sports?
12943Do you remember it?"
12943Do you remember what Jack said to him?
12943Do you suppose I would submit to it?"
12943Do you use that as a nom de plume, Sheldon?"
12943During the morning Percival saw Bucephalus alone, and said to him, holding one hand behind his back:"Was it your idea to keep guard last night, Buck?"
12943Has he got one?"
12943Have I been walking in my sleep?"
12943Have you forgotten your conversation with Gabrielle this afternoon?"
12943Have you lost a watch of this sort?"
12943He left that tent, but who is he and what does he want?"
12943How I can put the babee in the boy pocket?
12943How about your printing a poem last week written especially for us, and putting another name to it?
12943How are you going to manage it?
12943How can I remember a watch, which I can not carry, for fear some one say I steal?
12943How could I?
12943How could it have been here when it does not belong to any one in our family?"
12943How did Manners receive his black eye?
12943How did it get in my pocket?
12943How did it get in your pocket?"
12943How did it get there?
12943How did that watch get in your pocket?"
12943How was the child overlooked?"
12943I hoped he might keep it, but now-----""But now you think that I have a right to it?"
12943I know you have developments, but what are they?"
12943I suppose it would have taken too long to copy the entire poem, insertion and all?"
12943I suppose that was their boat that they were looking at?
12943I wonder what Higgins has been doing all this time, however, not to report his failure to get the watch?"
12943I wonder what it is all about?"
12943In the morning when he and young Smith arose, the latter said to him in some surprise:"Why, Billy, what is the matter, what have you been doing?
12943Is he the big man that did the most of the talking just now?
12943Is it a part of your business to insult people without provocation?"
12943Is it this?"
12943Is n''t it dirt?
12943Is that so?"
12943Jack glanced significantly at Percival, and said carelessly:"Gabrielle?
12943Jack pointed out the big man and the doctor said to him:"What is the matter, my man?
12943Later I woke up again and heard one of the fellows say,''That will do first rate,''and the other one asked,''They, wo n''t notice the difference?''
12943Many of the boys smiled, and the doctor continued:"Did n''t you recognize this poem when you read it in the out- of- town paper, Herring?"
12943May I see it, Doctor?"
12943May I see it?
12943May I see it?"
12943One of the ladies with Margaret seemed greatly interested, and she now turned to Jack, and asked:"What is the watch that you speak of?
12943One that you found?"
12943Or any of the professors?"
12943Or is it the seventh?
12943Probably a keepsake?
12943Run''em before, have you?"
12943She was the nurse?"
12943She''s all right?"
12943Sheldon?"
12943Smith''s face or Billy''s mutterings awoke that young gentleman, and he sat up in bed, asking in a very drowsy tone:"Is it time to get up, Billy?
12943Smith?"
12943Suppose I should deny it?"
12943Suppose the detective had arrested you before he saw the doctor or you had a chance to explain?
12943That night I woke up and heard some one say in the next tent to ours:''it''s all right, I''ve got it,''and somebody else asked,''can you fix` t?''
12943That the boys shall be young ruffians?"
12943The ladee give you the reward, yes?
12943The man flushed, glared angrily at the boy, and cried excitedly:"What do you mean by that, you young scoundrel?
12943The men fell back, being natural cowards, and one of them now said to the boys in sullen tones:"What you makin''such a fuss about, anyhow?
12943The rest of the description is accurate, is it?"
12943Then you know that he has done something in that line for the Hilltop Gazette, of course?"
12943This shows that you must have done so, and in fact Jenkins himself said that one of our boys, a big fellow-----""Ah, what do I care what he said?"
12943Want a tow?"
12943Was it one of yourselves or a stranger?
12943Was not that a singular place to find it?
12943Was yo''goin''to sleep in it?"
12943Well, what are you going to show me?"
12943Were you in the cottage the other night?
12943Wha''yo''doin''in it you''se''f, sah?
12943What are you about?"
12943What do these men want?"
12943What do you expect, Father dear?
12943What do you see on it, Jack?"
12943What else?"
12943What is he, pork merchant or something like that?"
12943What is it to me if a woman up the state stole his poem?
12943What is your objection?"
12943What reason would any one have to do this?
12943What sort of watch was it?
12943What sort of watch was yours, domestic or foreign, stemwinder or keyed, open face or hunting case, gold, silver, or nickel case?
12943What were you doing with it?"
12943What''s the matter?"
12943Where are the farms?
12943Where is his farm, anyhow?
12943Where should I have been to get a black eye?"
12943Who is Jenkins?"
12943Who is it anyhow?"
12943Who told you that it would injure them, Jenkins?
12943Who told you that your farms would be ruined?"
12943Who was your informant to the contrary?"
12943Why could not one of the suspected men have slipped it in Sheldon''s pocket, either designedly or by mistake?
12943Why did n''t his own chum do it?"
12943Why do you wish to oppose this work?
12943Why not?"
12943Why shall I get into prison for you?
12943Will a hundred dollars be sufficient?"
12943Will you deliver it to a man that I send after it?
12943Will you enquire?"
12943Will you get your copy of the verses, Sheldon, and let some one compare them?"
12943Will you let her out a bit?"
12943Will you make a correction in your next issue?"
12943Will you read the rest of the poem?
12943Will you send a few of them?"
12943Will you send some one, Dick?"
12943Will you tell me how you happened to put that watch in my friend''s pocket the night of the fire at your employer''s house?"
12943Wise acted on his own initiative from information received elsewhere, is that it?"
12943Wise,"he said, flushing,"will you tell this person what I told you when I gave you the watch this morning?
12943Wo n''t you let me buy you one?"
12943Would it not be natural, therefore, that you would try to throw discredit on him at this time?"
12943Would n''t he suspect something if I was to speak about it?
12943Would you kindly show me the way to my own tent?"
12943You are Jenkins, I believe?"
12943You are be arrest, yes?"
12943You are not lying to me, you have really lost it, Gabrielle?"
12943You can imitate different hand writings, ca n''t you?"
12943You certainly do not accuse me of doing it?
12943You did not lose it, did you?
12943You do n''t altogether like this camp life, do you, Herring?"
12943You do n''t go to throwing such things about, do you?"
12943You do n''t mind the chug of an auto or of a motor- boat, do you?
12943You do n''t remember anything about it?"
12943You do n''t think that I would have published the verses had I known the truth?"
12943You have not had any fight since I went away?
12943You have the number?"
12943You remember it?"
12943You remember this?
12943You say it was a lady''s watch?"
12943You say it was found last night at our house?"
12943You say you got it this morning?"
12943You want that you shall arrest him?"
12943and the first fellow answered,''fix it?
12943surveying, are you?"
12943what are you going to do with this boat?"
12943what is this?"
12943what''s that?"
12943what''s that?"
12943who is that?"
23645''I have been in an accident?''
23645''None of the household?''
23645About whom is this discovery?
23645All I am to say to Phoebe then is that her father is in good hands and she is not to look for him?
23645Am I Phoebe?
23645Amy? 23645 And Mr. Hook has been protecting you?
23645And be alone in the world, under the great dome of heaven? 23645 And he did n''t tell you about the attack and how he saved us?"
23645And he loves you?
23645And he never married another?
23645And her father?
23645And her father?
23645And her surname?
23645And is that all?
23645And is that the end of the story?
23645And it will come true?
23645And the red clothes?
23645And the scheme is?
23645And the stranger never came back who inquired about him that day?
23645And the wife''s name was Phoebe Jones?
23645And then?
23645And they live?
23645And this is your kitchen?
23645And we are to sleep on the ground under those flimsy tents, I suppose?
23645And where does Aunt Lucretia think you are?
23645And where does Grandpapa think you are now? 23645 And you are not Gypsies after all?"
23645And you are not tired?
23645And you just_ pretend_ to be poor for the novelty of the experience?
23645And you''re all right? 23645 And_ he''s_ your boss who''s always interfering with your vacations?"
23645Are you a friend of the Lupos?
23645Are you a mind reader, Miss Billie?
23645Are you sure?
23645At any rate, you will undertake it?
23645At what time?
23645Better now?
23645Billie?
23645Boil, you mean?
23645But a real one, Doctor? 23645 But do we dress out here in sight of the entire range of mountains?
23645But his wife? 23645 But how is your brother Richard?"
23645But is n''t that a great deal to ask of you, to take that long trip to- night?
23645But shall you?
23645But something has happened to you? 23645 But suppose she should get lonely or frightened--?"
23645But what are we to do?
23645But what do you do?
23645But what does it mean?
23645But when you saw the clothes were turning red, why did n''t you take them off the fire?
23645But where are your sister and Miss Swinnerton?
23645But who will run the motor car?
23645But why do they give it that uncivilized name?
23645But why? 23645 But you will undertake it, doctor?"
23645But, Richard, do you think we dare?
23645Ca n''t one girl lend another a few clothes without its being called''favors''? 23645 Coffee?
23645Coffee?
23645Come in, wo n''t you?
23645Could I have shot anyone?
23645Dear Miss Campbell, wo n''t you let us?
23645Dear me,interrupted Billie,"are n''t there any laws for the men to follow?
23645Dear old Ben, when did you come?
23645Dearest Papa,said Billie, kissing him,"do n''t you wear negligà © e shirts most all the time?
23645Did Mrs. Lupo ever go back to her husband?
23645Did he seem excited?
23645Did n''t I tell you I would be her staff before the day was over?
23645Did somebody put sleeping drops in my coffee, I wonder?
23645Did you have any trouble finding the way?
23645Did you hear what I asked?
23645Did you look through the barrel?
23645Do n''t you feel sorry for her to lose her father? 23645 Do n''t you get very tired gathering herbs on the mountains?"
23645Do n''t you honestly believe he is some distinguished person?
23645Do n''t you imagine that Phoebe''s father belonged to a noble family? 23645 Do n''t you remember the Wilderness that Christian had to pass through before he reached the Celestial City?"
23645Do n''t you think he has been punished enough and that Phoebe ought to have a chance?
23645Do n''t you think it will help you now?
23645Do they accuse my father of setting Razor Back on fire?
23645Do you know Phoebe?
23645Do you know anything about a little lady in gray and an abandoned automobile?
23645Do you love your husband?
23645Do you remember the poem called''Absalom''he recited? 23645 Do you suppose he''s forgotten English?"
23645Do you think it is right that I should dress up so beautifully when-- when my father is hidden away somewhere?
23645Do you think it would affect the flavor?
23645Do you think we ought to leave her on the first day?
23645Do you think you could let these young ladies rest in your cabin while we get a vehicle and drive them home?
23645Do you want to know the real reason why your wife left you?
23645Do you wish it so much?
23645Do you wish us to stop here now after so much excitement?
23645Do you write, too?
23645Does your wife flourish carving knives?
23645Duck?
23645Ees it for dis, den, I haf to you come?
23645Eh? 23645 Famished?"
23645Good heavens, what''s that?
23645Has anything happened? 23645 Has he ever seen you in a rage?"
23645Has he ever stayed away before at night?
23645Have Percy and Ben got back yet?
23645Have the children got back?
23645Have you a warrant for their arrest?
23645Have you ever heard of a case like his? 23645 Have you had your supper?"
23645Have you walked across the mountain this morning?
23645He is very ill?
23645He was a prince?
23645He?
23645How are the Gypsy cooks? 23645 How can you interfere with it, Billie?"
23645How could he, child, when there is no one for him to recognize? 23645 How do we know but she did n''t aid and abet Frenchy?"
23645How do we know but she did n''t help him start them fires on Razor Back? 23645 How do you like it, Billie dear?"
23645How far is it from anywhere?
23645How many are in your party, Miss Campbell?
23645How soon will he be coming back?
23645Hungry?
23645I beg your pardon, gentlemen,he said in a voice loud enough to be heard by everybody,"is this Sunrise Camp?"
23645I had a shock of some sort; or was it a fall? 23645 I suppose I have a perfect right to pray for a friend?"
23645I suppose he furnished that French lady''s Alpine costume, too, did n''t he, Nancy Bell?
23645I suppose they sent for you from the village?
23645I wonder where her people are?
23645Is he conscious?
23645Is he ill or hurt?
23645Is it for thees I haf gome?
23645Is n''t it fine?
23645Is there anything to prevent Phoebe''s having a chance without knowing her father''s past?
23645Is there none here?
23645Is this a trail? 23645 It only has two empty what do you call them-- chambers?"
23645Lady going die?
23645Lonesome?
23645May I inquire the name of the young lady in the motor car, if it is not too great an impertinence? 23645 May I take the liberty of asking you a question?"
23645Miss Campbell-- how has she stood it? 23645 Mrs. Lupo, will you get this gentleman some supper?"
23645Must I shoot at somebody?
23645Must I sit here all the afternoon waiting for the others to wake?
23645My father----"Is your father Frenchy?
23645My pillows?
23645Not only conscious, but, my dear child, what do you think? 23645 Not see?
23645Nothing has happened, then?
23645Of course you said''no''?
23645Of course,answered the doctor impatiently,"but what did he ask you?"
23645Oh, Ben, how could you have left them?
23645Oh, dear, what shall I say to her?
23645Or a duke, perhaps?
23645Or coffee?
23645Papa, why be so businesslike?
23645Perhaps it''s a species of wingless, legless mountain duck, unknown to low countries?
23645Phoebe what?
23645Phoebe without a name, who lives in a log house? 23645 Phoebe, have you found him?
23645Physicians, with medicines? 23645 Polonaise?"
23645Seeing her shake her head, he said:''The Baron von Metz is here?''
23645Shall I light the camp fire? 23645 Shall we be comrades of the road?"
23645Shall we go toward Indian Head or Sunrise? 23645 Shall we leave her to drift, ladies?"
23645She has--?
23645She was not touched-- the lady?
23645Shot him?
23645So you''re trying to make a lady of her, are you?
23645So?
23645Suppose I ca n''t keep back anger?
23645Suppose I''ve killed Richard? 23645 The scheme worked pretty well, eh, Percy?"
23645The young lady has friends, perhaps? 23645 Then how the palace?"
23645Then who was the German gentleman who recognized Phoebe?
23645Then who, pray, was Miss Phoebe Jones?
23645There could n''t be a trail through a bog anyhow, could there?
23645They?
23645To Christ?
23645Trouble for whom?
23645Twenty- five miles from a telegraph station----"But there is no one for you to telegraph to if Papa and I are with you, dear Cousin, is there?
23645Very romantic,said Richard,"but why has he been speaking only English all these years?"
23645Want to buy any vegetables?
23645Was it a winged duck?
23645Was n''t I right?
23645Was the skirt hobble?
23645We know the way, do n''t we, Ben? 23645 Well, I asked a man the way and he said,''Are you a doctor?''
23645Well, what do you want?
23645Well, who is it?
23645What are they, child?
23645What are you roasting? 23645 What do you mean by coming to me like this?"
23645What happened to him?
23645What have you done with my wife?
23645What in the world?
23645What is it, Granny?
23645What is it?
23645What is it?
23645What is the creature?
23645What is the matter?
23645What on earth are you talking about, Duncan? 23645 What shall I be doing?"
23645What shall I say?
23645What was it? 23645 What''s his name?"
23645What''s that thing that looks like an emigrant''s roll?
23645What''s the matter, old man?
23645When it''s your day''s work to take a long walk across the mountain in the hot sun, what keeps you from getting tired?
23645Where are its legs?
23645Where did you come from?
23645Where indeed?
23645Where is he?
23645Where is he?
23645Where is my wife?
23645Where''s the crook?
23645Who are you?
23645Who are you?
23645Who are you?
23645Who cut the rope?
23645Who said starving?
23645Who was it?
23645Who''s tapping at our chamber door?
23645Whose idea was that? 23645 Why ca n''t we tell her the truth?
23645Why did n''t we think of that before? 23645 Why do n''t you put the onions and potatoes in the same pot with the beans?
23645Why not Sunset Camp or Meridian Camp or even Moonrise Camp? 23645 Why not, indeed?"
23645Why not? 23645 Why wear masks then?"
23645Why, Billie, what kind of kitchen talk is that?
23645Why, you can cook, Alberdina?
23645Will the company state objections, if any?
23645Will you drink a cup of tea?
23645Will you pardon me if I interrupt you?
23645Will you pardon me if again I seem inquisitive? 23645 Wo n''t you let me help you?
23645Would any person or persons care to hear me sing some cheerful ditty?
23645Would you have a Jones marry a Jones?
23645You ai n''t meanin''it''s old crazy Frenchy you''re after?
23645You believe, then, you are given strength for each day''s task?
23645You called?
23645You come from Sunrise Camp?
23645You do not know her last name?
23645You forgive?
23645You know who did this, my girl?
23645You like coffee, do n''t you?
23645You look sweet, but why have you never worn it before?
23645You love everyone, do you not, Phoebe? 23645 You mean that curly- haired clerk who wears the ruby scarf pin?"
23645You think me handsome woman?
23645You will come, wo n''t you?
23645You will not tell me?
23645You will not think me impertinent if I ask you not to talk?
23645Young lady know?
23645An Indian papoose?"
23645And what was the use anyway, since dinner is n''t ready and we are all here?"
23645And why not, pray?"
23645Are n''t you my guest and almost the same age?
23645Are there any about?"
23645Are there any other old parties you wish to pension off with coffee or tea this winter?"
23645Besides, did n''t you say the old herb woman was a friend?
23645But what does Miss Swinnerton like to do?
23645But, had she been dreaming then, all the while?
23645By the way, where are the criminals?"
23645CHAPTER X. ALBERDINA SCHOENBACHLER"You no lig I shall dos clothes coog?"
23645Ca n''t Billie come and speak to me?"
23645Could not Phoebe see him?
23645Did you realize that?
23645Do n''t you think it would be very unpleasant not to know who you were or even your father''s name?"
23645Do n''t you think some of us could take it, Dr. Hume?
23645Do n''t you think you could operate on Phoebe''s father, put a silver plate on his skull or lift whatever''s pressing on his memory bump?
23645Do n''t you think you could undertake it, doctor?
23645Do you mean negligà © e?"
23645Do you think he could have gone very far away?"
23645Does he recognize anyone?"
23645Does she look like a criminal?"
23645Eh?"
23645Ever hear of it?"
23645Has he spoken?
23645Has the wound been dressed?"
23645Have you never seen a van?"
23645He is a German already yet?"
23645Hein?"
23645Hook?"
23645Hook?"
23645How are all of you?"
23645How could she have been out of humor when just at their very doorstep lay the most wonderful enchanted forest?
23645How could treachery and hatred and jealousy exist where there was so much beauty?
23645How had she taken their long, unexplained absence?
23645How long might she have lain there unconscious, or how dealt with the half- intoxicated Lupo if he had mounted the steps in search of his wife?
23645Hume?"
23645I presume you have been shown your rooms?"
23645I suppose there is plenty of bread?
23645I''ve never seen it, but that is the place you like best, is n''t it?"
23645In the meantime, Billie was saying:"Oh, doctor, what has happened?
23645Is he all right?"
23645Is he conscious?
23645Is she all right?"
23645Is she fond of housework, too?"
23645Is that the reason why she ran away?"
23645Is the pot boiling?
23645It ca n''t rain in far enough to wet the beds and, of course, nothing else matters----""Clothes?"
23645It seems that the gentlemen who just now dropped me at your door----""The disappointed lover?"
23645It was indeed a splendid place, but how was Miss Campbell going to take to the dormitory?
23645Lupo?"
23645Lupo?"
23645Lupo?"
23645Many peoples to dis house come-- crazy peoples-- men and vimmen, hein?
23645May I ask if you are giving a performance of private theatricals?
23645One who lived in a palace?"
23645Or is this a cannibal feast?"
23645People who have helped her?"
23645Remember, Cousin Helen?
23645She thought of Phoebe''s father, perhaps injured, or worse, who could tell?
23645She was a princess?"
23645She would not have deceived you, would she?"
23645Suppose Phoebe''s father would not thank me for bringing his past back?
23645That he may have been flying from something?"
23645Was it not strange and terrible to take up the thread of one''s life where it had been so ruthlessly snapped off some two decades ago?
23645Was not that a zither now mingling its fairy music with the notes of the cow bell?
23645Was she in a palace?
23645Well, Alberdina,"she called, as the car drew up at the camp door,"have you been lonesome?"
23645Were they not mysterious people?
23645What could an old stunted apple tree like?
23645What do you know of him, Miss Phoebe?"
23645What have you got?"
23645What is the reason of it?"
23645What next, pray tell me?"
23645What was it?"
23645What''s that thing that looks like a pig in a blanket?
23645When the climbing part comes, what will she do, Ben?"
23645Where are the Captain and the crew?
23645Where are the passengers?"
23645Where do you suppose the people are?"
23645Where is that foolish man?
23645Where is this-- er--_cabeen_?"
23645Where is your husband?
23645Where''s the motor cycle?"
23645Who could keep from laughing over this brother and sister who loved the life on the road and the campfire?
23645Who had sent her?
23645Who is the only person we know who would get up at dawn and go tramping off for wild flowers?"
23645Who knows but it might have been this stranger, himself, who had robbed her of her savings?
23645Who knows what distinguished niche he may have occupied once somewhere?
23645Who was Phoebe?
23645Who was her father?
23645Who was looking after Phoebe''s father, if he were hurt or a prisoner?
23645Who would have imagined as she sat there idly swinging in the hammock, that the dainty little lady was all the way to sixty years old?
23645Whose prayer had brought the young man to Sunrise Camp in the nick of time?
23645Why are you standing around like a lot of wooden images?"
23645Why ca n''t I take a walk?
23645Why ca n''t you turn old Dobbin right about face and come back and see us at Camp Sunrise?"
23645Why did n''t he tell you?"
23645Why did n''t you hurry?"
23645Why has the doctor sent for both of you boys?
23645Why not walk until we get to it?"
23645Why should I be?
23645Why should we be left alone?
23645Will they save her?
23645Will you come with me to my home?"
23645Will you get me another loaf, please?"
23645Will you hard- boil a dozen eggs?"
23645Wo n''t she be stunning?
23645Wo n''t you stop over night?
23645You boiled those clothes with a red silk handkerchief?"
23645You look for somebody?"
23645You would n''t like to disobey him, would you?"
23645You would not guess who found and has cared for him all this time?
23645You''re safe?"
23645You''ve already broken into the house and robbed our maid----""Who said I did?"
23645Your name is--?"
23645Yours, Miss Billie?"
23645Zither, did she say?
23645said the doctor,"you mean to say you sent them through that bog?
23645when they returned, and would there be a long clothes line bowed under the weight of clean white linen bleaching in the sun ready to be ironed?
28740''Why do mosquito nettings leak? 28740 A camp,"whispered Jess, having hard work to keep her teeth from nervously chattering, despite the heat of the day,"Who do you suppose is here?"
28740A crab in fresh water?
28740A quandary, Miss Belding?
28740A what?
28740Acorn Island? 28740 After he saved Short and Long''s life?"
28740Alive?
28740And I''d like to know why not? 28740 And did n''t he make that dive gracefully?"
28740And have hung about here all this time? 28740 And if he warn''t rich why should he have slipped me the five dollars?"
28740And lived in a cheap boarding house?
28740And not try to dive after him-- eh?
28740And the fellow who robbed that bank in Albany is Norman Halliday? 28740 And them frogs?"
28740And what did he want? 28740 And what sort of game can they hunt with hounds this time of year?"
28740And why ca n''t we?
28740And why should the spirits of the dead haunt_ these_ woods?
28740And why_ here_?
28740And without asking questions?
28740And you are searching all the woods around about for a convict?
28740And you knew this all along, Laura Belding?
28740Any more?
28740Are n''t you awful, Bobby?
28740Are you going to let us mere''amachoors''beat you? 28740 Are you referring to your Latin teacher?
28740Are you sure the-- the old Prof was one of those fishermen we saw in the boat?
28740Beautiful as_ he_ be?
28740Bloodhounds? 28740 Boiled down,"stated Bobby Hargrew,"to its last common divisor, it is''Where, oh, where shall we spend our vacation?''"
28740But how about_ us_?
28740But if we try to stop him,said Laura, slowly,"wo n''t he suspect that we do n''t want him to search the island?"
28740But what has he got stuck into the cap?
28740But what under the sun,demanded Bobby,"should he take our food for?"
28740But who do you suppose that fellow with the gun was? 28740 But why should an officer of the law come_ here_?"
28740But why should he appear to you, even if he_ were_ dead?
28740But-- but I wonder what she''s up to?
28740But_ why_?
28740Buy me_ what_?
28740By the way, girls,Laura Belding asked, briskly,"are we going to let any other girls join this camping party-- or is it to be just us six?"
28740Can you see through it?
28740Dead?
28740Did n''t that fellow take the food and get away from the island?
28740Did n''t you say a part of this stream was a private fishing preserve?
28740Did you ever hear the like?
28740Did you ever notice Professor Dimp''s feet?
28740Did you ever see such a looking thing?
28740Did you ever see such an uncouth creature? 28740 Did you hear his latest?"
28740Did you work in Albany?
28740Dish- washing? 28740 Do n''t you have any other visitors over yonder?"
28740Do n''t you know, Lizzie, that there is only_ one_ Pretty Sweet? 28740 Do n''t you think,"Purt asked, seriously,"that one of us ought to remain here and defend-- er-- the camp?"
28740Do you hear what she says?
28740Do you know he''s gone out of town already?
28740Do you mean Prettyman Sweet?
28740Do you really suppose they are coming here with those dogs?
28740Do you suppose Robin Hood ever looked like that?
28740Do you suppose he''s come to try to get his five dollars back?
28740Do you suppose they hurt him?
28740Do you suppose we are going to need you boys every hour, or so?
28740Do you think I am blind?
28740Do you think you can stand it?
28740Do you think you would like to go with us?
28740Do you want a dog?
28740Eh, girls?
28740Eight in fam''bly, eh?
28740Even if anybody had cigarettes to lend him, he could n''t smoke any with anothah fellah''s monogram on''em, don''tcher know, old top?
28740Girls from Central High, eh? 28740 Gladder than you were over Purt?"
28740Go down there and stone him when the barge comes near?
28740Got a half dollar, Purt?
28740Got it all planned, have you?
28740Have n''t you any sense at all? 28740 He asked for a date, did n''t he?"
28740He did n''t dress like that to go camping?
28740He wanted to know if we were going to pitch our camp, too, on Acorn Island? 28740 He was told by that old gentleman to keep away from here, was n''t he?
28740He will hear you----"Will that be a crime?
28740He_ does n''t_ look wicked, does he?
28740Hear about what he got off in Ancient History class the other day? 28740 Hear that, will you?"
28740Here''s who?
28740Hounds?
28740How about what Liz says about the man she saw last evening?
28740How are you going to do it?
28740How are you going to summon us if you need help, my dear little boys? 28740 How dare you?
28740How do you know?
28740How do you make that out?
28740How do you think that dog can follow us, when we''re going ten miles by boat?
28740How fast?
28740How many zones do you suppose there are, Bobs?
28740How you going to do it?
28740How?
28740How_ can_ you?
28740How_ dare_ you read such preposterous stuff?
28740I am going to ask him----"What?
28740I thought you and Lilly kissed and made up?
28740I thought you were a millionairess?
28740I was reeling in, was n''t I? 28740 I weally do n''t get you-- don''t you know?"
28740I wonder if she managed to boil the water without burning it?
28740I wonder where_ they_ camp at night?
28740I wonder who that old man is?
28740I''ve been to see the games a lot with father Saturday afternoons,began Laura, when her mother interposed:"Indeed?
28740If he is, why is he mixed up with this bank thief?
28740Is n''t he romantic looking?
28740Is n''t that it, Laura?
28740Is n''t that just like a parcel of girls?
28740Is n''t that the truth, Lizzie? 28740 Is she, Dorothy?"
28740Is there really a sheriff''s posse hunting him?
28740Is_ he_ here?
28740It can not be?
28740Just curiosity?
28740Liz,she said to the sad- faced girl, who seemed gloomier than ever on this morning,"who was the man who scared you in the rain last evening?"
28740No?
28740Not Old Dimple?
28740Now, is n''t that just like her?
28740Now, what do you want to know, Sis?
28740Now, who is the man? 28740 Of course,"she murmured to Mrs. Belding,"if_ you_ approve----""Where is Grace now?"
28740Of whom are you speaking?
28740On a hot day like this?
28740Or being up there last evening in the storm?
28740Owned a bank?
28740Paddle to the mainland and kill some farmer''s cow to get beef?
28740Pinches you? 28740 Posted?"
28740Professor Dimp?
28740Quite All Right207 THE GIRLS OF CENTRAL HIGH IN CAMP CHAPTER I WHERE, OH, WHERE?
28740See?
28740Seen the dog?
28740So we have come to see if you would like another position for a few weeks?
28740So you could soar into the circumambient ether and leave all mundane things below?
28740So you were not actually trying to rescue the dog?
28740Suits ye, does it?
28740Suppose he turns on us? 28740 Suppose we''d had Miss Carrington along?"
28740Sure?
28740Surely he is n''t afraid of the Barnacle, is he?
28740Surely, we wo n''t stay here if there are men on the island?
28740Takin''him to the bench- show, Clarence? 28740 Tell us, do, if your father has agreed to let us go camping on Acorn Island?"
28740Tell_ me_ about it, please?
28740That''s never Purt Sweet? 28740 The old Prof?"
28740Then Liz_ did_ see that Mr. Norman the night we were robbed?
28740Then it does n''t taste so bad?
28740Then it''s the man who has been fishing with the professor?
28740Then you can cook?
28740Then you''ll come with us?
28740They all said_ I_ helped burglarize that department store last summer-- didn''t they? 28740 They look real pretty-- now do n''t they?"
28740Tommy Long-- the infant terrible?
28740Tryin''to scare me, was you? 28740 Waiting for me, Mister?"
28740Was_ this_ what you took for seasonin''for that stuffin''?
28740We girls, too?
28740We wo n''t accuse him of robbing the camp that time, I suppose?
28740We''ll comb this island with a fine tooth comb----"You do n''t suppose we girls are going to let you fellows do it all, do you?
28740Well, Miss?
28740What about him?
28740What about it?
28740What are we going to have? 28740 What chap?"
28740What d''ye mean-- a_ job_?
28740What did I tell you? 28740 What did the kid mean?"
28740What do you call that little thing that bobbed up and down on the water?
28740What do you know about taking a chicken apart?
28740What do you know about_ that_? 28740 What do you mean, Miss?"
28740What do you suppose my tongue is-- a timekeeper?
28740What do you think of this place, Lizzie?
28740What do you think of this? 28740 What do you think the Dimple means?"
28740What do_ we_ care?
28740What does he look like? 28740 What does this mean, Lizzie Bean?"
28740What does this mean?
28740What doin''?
28740What for?
28740What has your brother to do with this affair?
28740What if I have?

28740What is it, Sis?
28740What is it?
28740What is the matter, Liz?

28740Who else wants to go?
28740Who has?
28740Who have?
28740Who is this sheriff after? 28740 Who said he was slow?"
28740Who the dickens are_ you_?
28740Who''ll go for the provisions to this Crossing you speak of?
28740Who''s going to take the_ Duchess_ and go to Elberon Crossing for this bill of goods? 28740 Who''s she?
28740Who''s that?
28740Who''s who?
28740Who''s''we?''
28740Who?
28740Who?
28740Who_ is_ he?
28740Whoever heard the like?
28740Whom do you suppose the Barnacle is really barking at?
28740Why did the Barnacle bark so?
28740Why not?
28740Why not?
28740Why not?
28740Why should I?
28740Why should Laura stir up a row and scare you all? 28740 Why, is n''t it a fact that he went in after the dog?
28740Why-- why did the Creator ever_ make_ such a horrid beast?
28740Why?
28740Will you hear that boy talk? 28740 Will you mind me, Chet?"
28740With bloodhounds? 28740 With the old professor tagging after him?"
28740Wonder if you''re right?
28740Wonder where his camp is?
28740Would n''t dare what?
28740Ye-- yes?
28740Yes, what_ is_ the matter, dear?
28740You absolutely refuse to talk to me about him?
28740You are a sheriff, are n''t you?
28740You ask that and wear those furs of yours in the winter?
28740You had that old pistol in your pocket, did n''t you?
28740You have seen whom?
28740You mean he could n''t have been the kleptomaniantic thief?
28740You read about that Halliday fellow, did n''t you?
28740You surely do n''t want to do all the work yourself?
28740You will arrange it?
28740You will not be afraid if you sleep there with me, will you?
28740You would n''t do all that to Lance and poor little Reddy-- would you really?
28740_ What?_demanded Chet, suddenly shaking Short and Long by the collar.
28740_ What_?
28740_ What_?
28740_ What_?
28740_ What_?
28740_ You_ have known about this for some time, Laura? 28740 ''Lonesome Liz?''
28740''Now if this man at home in bed, Had in this manner died, Then could the coroner have said:"He died of homicide"?''
28740''Who''s the bad man, Tommy?''
28740All, did we say?
28740And folks like to live in the woods?
28740And had the young man returned from the north side of the lake where she had seen him the day before?
28740And why is Old Dimple mixed up in it?"
28740And_ why_?
28740Are we all agreed that we shall not go to the salt water?"
28740Belding?"
28740Belding?"
28740Belding?"
28740But, did you_ ever_ see such a girl before?"
28740CHAPTER V THE START"What do you girls want?"
28740CHAPTER XXII WHERE PROFESSOR DIMP COMES IN BIG"What under the sun are you talking about, Bobby?"
28740Could he catch them?
28740Did you hear the hounds baying?"
28740Do n''t I hate him--_just_?"
28740Do n''t you all feel just like Eliza crossing the ice, girls?"
28740Do n''t you let him escape----""Why do n''t you come down and take him?"
28740Do n''t you see that sign?"
28740Do they come out_ every_ night?"
28740Do you know one from the other, Jess?"
28740Do you see the same thing I do, or am I going crazy?"
28740Do you suppose they can get her without a ladder?"
28740Do you suppose_ he_ was the fellow who took the food from your tent, Laura?"
28740Fans?"
28740For shelter from the rain?
28740Have you seen him?"
28740His shoes, then?"
28740How about the master he had adopted?
28740How ever did it crawl aboard?
28740How much were the frankfurters worth?"
28740I do n''t care if they_ did_ leave money for the food they took----""But there must be something bad about them----""How do we know that, Lil?"
28740I hope the money I left was sufficient to pay for the food?"
28740I really_ do_ help father in the jewelry- store-- don''t I, Dad?"
28740If you ai n''t a- hidin''of that thar feller, ye wo n''t mind my pokin''around a bit, will yer?"
28740Is n''t Mr. Halliday in there-- Mr. Norman Halliday?"
28740Is n''t she quick on her feet?"
28740Is n''t there a place where a fellow can get away from them and fish?
28740Is she sheltering him because of fear, or for another reason?
28740Laura whispered:"Is n''t she a splendid creature?"
28740Miss Boston Bean?"
28740Norman?''"
28740Now, how is that for a match for_ your_ limerick?"
28740Or do you want me to bring you a ladder?"
28740Purt and Lily were behind, and Bobby immediately shouted:"Say, Purt who''s your friend?"
28740Sha''n''t we give you each a penny whistle so you can call us?"
28740Shall I begin by peeling the potatoes?"
28740She only stared at the giggling Jess and asked:"Ai n''t ye well?"
28740She would sacrifice herself for my safety; but I could hardly allow her to do that, do n''t you know?
28740Something about going to the island?"
28740Sweet?"
28740Talk about''the cat coming back?''
28740That thing yonder has queered me----""What thing?"
28740The general question at the girls''camp was:"Why were the men and dogs coming to Acorn Island?"
28740The ha''nt of a man that owned a bank would n''t come to bother a poor gal like me for money, would he?"
28740The mooted question was, where?
28740Then she added:"Suppose he was somebody_ we_ had an interest in, Chet?"
28740Then, why should she wait until the storm was nearly over before showing all the marks of extreme terror?
28740They were all as busy as bees the next day, packing their bags and flying about from house to house, asking each other:"What you going to take?"
28740This is private land----""But ca n''t he search the island for a lawbreaker?"
28740Want to scare Lil and Nellie out of their next five years''growth?"
28740Was it the girl in the sleeping part of the tent?
28740We must add to the larder----""What shall we do?"
28740What do you know about the professor?"
28740What do you know about_ that_?"
28740What do you mean?"
28740What do you mean?"
28740What do you think about leaving him at the island here with the girls, Chet?"
28740What does he think this is-- a turkish bath?"
28740What had the Barnacle barked so about?
28740What have you done to the professor?"
28740What will we do when we find him?"
28740When he saw what it was I handed him, he grabbed it and just snarled at me:"''Where did you get that, Miss Hargrew?''
28740Where is it?"
28740Where is your companion, sir?"
28740Where, Oh, Where?
28740Who-- who could have brought the howwid cweature here?"
28740Why ca n''t a bathing suit look neat?
28740Why did he come to the tent in the storm?
28740Why do all fishers lie?
28740Why do they feed us on clam- pie?
28740Why does a collar wilt?
28740Why does the boardwalk hurt the feet?
28740Why does the grunter- fish always squeak?
28740Why is the nose the first to burn?
28740Why is the sea bass shy?
28740Why is the sea so near the land?
28740Why is the seaweed green?
28740Why is the stinging fly?
28740Why is the"crawl- stroke"hard to learn?
28740Why should she be troubled by a mere mystery?
28740Why should such a man come and rob our camp?"
28740Why were the billows built?
28740Why wo n''t straw hats stay clean?
28740You knew that the young man was on the island?"
28740You know the old parody on''Lives of Great Men All Remind Us,''do n''t you?"
28740You''ll get the blanket?''"
28740_ Do n''t_ tell me he''s disguised himself for a nigger minstrel show in that fashion?"
28740_ That_ is why you are so eager always to spend your forenoons with your father on Saturday?"
28740_ what_ do you suppose is the matter with Professor Dimp?"
28740and is he anywhere near here?"
28740are_ you_ here?"
28740ca n''t you read that there sign?"
28740can there be anything more respectable than Old Dimple?"
28740demanded Liz, with a jump,"Say that again, will ye?"
28740did you hear what he did at Mr. Sharp''s the other night?"
28740exclaimed Laura Belding,"are n''t you going to give it back to him?"
28740exclaimed Nellie, rather tartly for her,"how did he know whether that poor dog could swim, or not?"
28740here''s one seaside visitor''s complaint,"and she intoned in a singsong voice the following doggerel:"''Why do n''t red- headed girls get tanned?
28740let''s hear you say_ that_ fast?"
28740should we pass a vote of thanks to him for_ that_?"
28740the chap they say stole the money from that Albany bank?"
28740were n''t they good, with butter and syrup, followed by bacon and eggs and French fried potatoes?
28740what do you want?"
28740what if you did?"
28740what is it?"
28740what is it?"
28740what is your idea of an optimist?"
28740what''s that?"
28740when do you want breakfast, Miss?"
28740where are you?"
28740who cares about that horrid dog?"
28740who has lost a perfectly good fly?"
28740who have we here?"
28740who''d have thought he was so mean?"
43583A hot drink?
43583A little bill? 43583 A nurse?
43583A son?
43583About what time was that?
43583Am I supposed to get dressed?
43583And are there plenty of young people?
43583And could n''t they tell you anything more about the fire?
43583And how do you feel today, dear?
43583And if you do n''t mind, Miss Stone, will you call me by my right name? 43583 And is your mother going to rebuild?"
43583And little Ethel?
43583And sometimes those fires spread farther than you want them to?
43583And that''s all you know?
43583And then what do I do?
43583And where is our next- door neighbor''s cottage?
43583And why did Tom Adams suspect that you knew anything?
43583And you saw two people on your way back, you said?
43583And you''d kind of like to prove Cliff Hunter is innocent, would n''t you, Jane?
43583Another fire?
43583Any news yet?
43583Anybody drowned?
43583Are you responsible for Cliff''s arrest, David McCall?
43583Beat me up?
43583Business is n''t any too good----"What would it have been without me to help?
43583But ca n''t he be arrested?
43583But do you think she could be setting the places on fire?
43583But how can we call on him if we do n''t know him?
43583But how could he?
43583But how do you know, Mary Lou?
43583But we''d have to quote prices, would n''t we?
43583But what are you going to do?
43583But what made you do that dreadful thing to Mary Louise?
43583But what makes you think you do n''t want to go over to the Reeds''with me?
43583But where is Hattie?
43583But where were you, Mary Lou?
43583But where''s Mary Lou?
43583But who are you?
43583But why?
43583But you did n''t see anybody?
43583But you have another week, do n''t you, David?
43583By the way,asked Jane,"where is David McCall staying?
43583Ca n''t we send for him?
43583Ca n''t you tell us where you were when that fire started?
43583Ca n''t you think of something you want?
43583Can they save it?
43583Can you show me where there is a well of clear water?
43583Can you take us over to the farm now, Ditmar? 43583 Card tricks?"
43583Could n''t you borrow one?
43583Could we go upstairs and see her when you take up her broth?
43583Could we talk to Rebecca?
43583Did Frazier expect to burn any more cottages?
43583Did I-- or did I not put money in your pocket?
43583Did n''t I tell you? 43583 Did n''t anybody see the flames-- or smell the smoke?"
43583Did n''t he save our lives that night we rode in Harry Grant''s car?
43583Did n''t you bring any bag, Rebecca?
43583Did n''t you go to bed that night?
43583Did n''t you have enough excitement and mystery at Dark Cedars?
43583Did n''t you say she is home now?
43583Did she happen to say?
43583Did they expect to go to the picnic tonight on the island?
43583Did you make a fire?
43583Did you need the work, Hattie?
43583Did you see anybody in the woods or around Shady Nook?
43583Did you see the boys or anybody around at all?
43583Did you see the boys this morning?
43583Did you show it to your husband?
43583Do n''t you love it?
43583Do n''t your patients have anything to do?
43583Do you believe that, Mary Lou?
43583Do you care that much about Cliff, Jane?
43583Do you know a woman with gray hair who calls herself Rebecca, Hattie?
43583Do you know any of the details, Freckles?
43583Do you make fires at all?
43583Do you really think her husband is guilty, Mary Lou?
43583Do you think Hattie will be back soon?
43583Do you think she could be starting the fires? 43583 Do you think you have all those things?"
43583Does burning people''s houses come into his plan?
43583Even when you reached your own dock, did n''t you smell smoke?
43583Fires?
43583Freckles, what do you think could have happened to Mary Lou?
43583From the kitchen?
43583From the river, I mean?
43583Had n''t you seen any flames?
43583Had you ever seen him before?
43583Has Mr. Frazier run away too?
43583Has anybody seen Freckles?
43583Has she been here?
43583Have n''t you ever heard of a bribe, Mary Lou?
43583Have n''t you gotten over that fad yet, Cliff?
43583Have you any engagement, or can I talk to you for a while?
43583Have you any plans at all, dear?
43583Have you any suspicions at all?
43583Have you had anything to eat?
43583Have you heard any news this morning?
43583Have you seen her since breakfast, Tom?
43583He can be arrested for signing that paper confining me to the insane asylum, ca n''t he, Dad?
43583He would n''t give up college?
43583Honestly?
43583How about Frazier?
43583How can I?
43583How could Cliff have anything to do with it when he was with us all evening?
43583How did it happen?
43583How did it start?
43583How did this come?
43583How did you boys find out about it? 43583 How do you know Lem Adams?"
43583How many bungalows did you say there are, Mary Lou?
43583How?
43583How?
43583I do n''t suppose you''d have time to play with us this afternoon, would you, Mary Lou?
43583I mean, how could a detective from Albany know about the fires here at Shady Nook-- let alone suspect Cliff?
43583I mean, what other families with young people?
43583I mean, when you finally left your camp?
43583I thought maybe you girls would come in my motorboat----"And lose the chance of winning a prize?
43583In all this heat? 43583 In my motorboat?"
43583Is Hattie home today?
43583Is Mary Louise here? 43583 Is he guilty?"
43583Is he here now? 43583 Is it anything dangerous?"
43583Is n''t Frazier guilty?
43583Is n''t there some way I can prove that I''m sane?
43583Is that because you expect to become a writer?
43583Is that where they hold the dances?
43583Is there any question you want to ask this criminal, Miss Gay, before we take him away?
43583It does look good, does n''t it?
43583Lemuel Adams?
43583Letting you in on all the thrills of solving a real mystery.... Well, are you coming or not?
43583Lost a tennis ball?
43583Mary Lou, you think David sent that wire, do n''t you?
43583May I break off two sticks from some bush?
43583May I come over to see you after supper?
43583May I come up and see you, Rebecca?
43583May I go with the boys now?
43583May I have a shower?
43583Mr. Adams,she said,"may I ask a question?
43583Mystery? 43583 No clues at all?"
43583No signs of anybody?
43583Now that I have finished my work, may I go out into the garden and practice my semaphore for an hour before lunch?
43583Oh, Mary Lou, you''re not hurt, are you?
43583Oh, what?
43583Oh, where is he?
43583Oh, why ca n''t he behave himself?
43583Oh, yeah? 43583 Oh, yeah?"
43583On a case?
43583On what grounds could you arrest him, then?
43583Or do the Hunters live on the other side of you?
43583Pare potatoes-- or something?
43583Popular?
43583Prepared for what?
43583Rebecca Adams?
43583Recognize them, McCall?
43583Regular hold- up men?
43583Remember the scout motto,''Be prepared''? 43583 Since the bungalow is gone, where would he stay?"
43583Small children? 43583 So I suppose we have to go to Four Corners this afternoon?"
43583So we ca n''t count on them for any fun?
43583So what did you do?
43583So you narrowed your suspects down to two people-- besides Tom Adams?
43583Some test I can take?
43583Somebody set it on fire-- on purpose, you mean, David?
43583Such as gypsies?
43583Suppose Watson had told Sherlock Holmes that he had a date with a girl and could n''t go on an investigation with him when he was needed?
43583Tell me,urged Jane,"which boy you really like best-- Cliff Hunter or David McCall or Max Miller?"
43583The Ditmars?
43583Then I sha n''t be competing against you if I go in Cliff''s launch?
43583Then I sha n''t need any fancy clothes-- like dance dresses?
43583Then we can count on you three?
43583Then what do you believe? 43583 Then who?"
43583Think you''ll make me fergit them hundred berries you owe me? 43583 This is n''t Clifford?"
43583Tired, dear?
43583Together?
43583Tom Adams? 43583 True.... Who''s your other suspect, Mary Lou?
43583Two?
43583Want a receipt?
43583Was Tom home?
43583We had supper at half- past five last night, did n''t we? 43583 We''ll look for you in the water, then.... And, by the way, you''ll come to the party on the island tomorrow night, wo n''t you?"
43583Well, if my brother comes back here, will you please send him right over to the inn?
43583What are you doing?
43583What can you possibly do about it?
43583What did he do?
43583What did you do that for?
43583What did you do the next day?
43583What do you mean by that?
43583What do you think about it?
43583What do you want, Mary Louise?
43583What does your mother think?
43583What for?
43583What have you on the program for today?
43583What idea?
43583What in the world did you do?
43583What kind of diabolical plot is this?
43583What makes you think there will be one tonight?
43583What paper?
43583What proof have you?
43583What time was she here?
43583What''ll we go in, Mary Lou? 43583 What''s happened?"
43583What''s that, dear?
43583What''s the youth''s name?
43583When did you find it?
43583When we wear our flossy dresses?
43583Where are the Smiths now?
43583Where are they now?
43583Where are you going?
43583Where are you?
43583Where can we buy food?
43583Where did your brother go?
43583Where do I take my bath?
43583Where was she going after she left you?
43583Where will the fire be tonight?
43583Where will the''Wild Guys of the Road''be today?
43583Where you goin''?
43583Where''s Mary Lou?
43583Where''s your sister?
43583Which one?
43583Who be you?
43583Who cares about that old stiff?
43583Who else are there besides the Hunters?
43583Who is he? 43583 Who is the leader?"
43583Who''s driving first?
43583Who''s she?
43583Who? 43583 Who?"
43583Who?
43583Who?
43583Whose accomplice are you?
43583Why did I ever try to be a detective?
43583Why did he want them burned down?
43583Why hot?
43583Why not Flicks''?
43583Why not stop for the Reed girls?
43583Why?
43583Why?
43583Will you come with me or play around with Cliff?
43583Will you dance with me after supper, Mary Lou?
43583Will you men come inside?
43583With her nurse?
43583With whom?
43583Would that be all right?
43583Would you like to come and join us?
43583You are Mrs. Ditmar, are n''t you? 43583 You do n''t mean David McCall, do you?"
43583You do n''t mind my doing it, Mother?
43583You do n''t suspect him, do you?
43583You found her, Gay?
43583You have a sister Rebecca, have n''t you, Adams?
43583You mean Lemuel Adams and his son?
43583You mean that now you have to turn in and do the cooking since Flicks''Inn is gone?
43583You really are serious?
43583You remember Mary Louise? 43583 You saw the ruins?"
43583You suspect Horace Ditmar, of course?
43583You think we''re as wicked as that, Mary Lou?
43583You were expecting it, David?
43583You''re not still mad at me, Mary Lou, are you?
43583You''re not still worried, are you, Mother?
43583You''re sure that''s the truth?
43583You-- have been thinking of putting Rebecca into an asylum?
43583Your brother-- or your father-- didn''t know anything about it, either?
43583Your father? 43583 A fellow who does odd jobs around the hotel sometimes?
43583Adams?"
43583And I''m going to miss Cliff dreadfully.... By the way, where was David McCall today?
43583And how about that threat they got?
43583And is n''t it nice I have my license, so you wo n''t have to drive all the way?"
43583And the other people who were boarding at Flicks''?"
43583And who wanted them burned down except Frazier, or possibly Horace Ditmar, who, as you know, is an architect?"
43583Any news?"
43583Any relation to Hattie Adams, who always waited on the table at Flicks''Inn?"
43583Are n''t I, Miss Stone?"
43583Are there many cottages on the other side of Flicks''?"
43583Big brute with light hair?
43583But how could Mary Louise possibly prove this fact?
43583But not boys as big as Freckles and the Smiths?"
43583But she must know something, or how could she predict when they are going to occur?"
43583But what do you want me to do about them, Jane?
43583But what had he done to Mary Lou first?
43583But who cares?"
43583But why would your mother suspect Mr. Ditmar of setting fire to her cottage?"
43583But, Jane, how can you take an interest in men when your own boy- friend is in such trouble?
43583But-- but-- can you prove anything?"
43583CHAPTER II_ Clifford''s Story_"What did he say?"
43583CHAPTER I_ The Burnt Bungalow_"For the whole month?"
43583CHAPTER VIII_ Danger_"Freckles,"said Mary Louise at supper that evening,"will you lend us your tent tonight?
43583CHAPTER V_ Freckles''Story_"What in the world are you doing?"
43583CHAPTER XIII_ The Threat_"Is there anything I can do to help you people?"
43583Ca n''t you get your tennis things on and play with us this morning?"
43583Ca n''t you, Mary Lou?"
43583Can you figure out how it happened?"
43583Could we ask him?"
43583Did Tom say anything about seeing her?"
43583Did n''t he pay you a certain sum of money to start those fires?"
43583Did n''t this storekeeper profit-- by getting extra business-- because Flicks''burned down?"
43583Did the Ditmars see you boys in the woods?"
43583Did the nurse believe her?
43583Did you stay there in the woods all day?"
43583Do n''t I always square up my debts?"
43583Do n''t you know what kind of place this is, Max?
43583Do n''t you remember?
43583Do n''t you want to wear your pink georgette?"
43583Do you happen to know Tom Adams?
43583Do you know, she warned Mary Louise day before yesterday there would be another fire?
43583Do you see him?"
43583Do you, Mother?"
43583Does your husband approve, Adelaide?"
43583Flick?"
43583Flick?"
43583Flick?"
43583Flick?"
43583Frazier?"
43583Gay?"
43583Had she-- and the rest of the staff at the asylum-- been accomplices to a hideous crime?
43583Had the girl taken any part in the plot?
43583Has it occurred to you, Mary Lou, that both fires started when everybody from Shady Nook was off on a party?"
43583Have a party and invite them over?"
43583Have you found a well of clear water?"
43583How are you feeling?"
43583How are you this summer?"
43583How could anybody help liking a boy like Cliff?
43583How could he?"
43583How could she sit there and talk like that?
43583How could they commit anybody to an insane asylum?
43583How do you know?"
43583Hunter?"
43583If it had, why would n''t Ditmars''and Robinsons''cottages have been burned?
43583If only my husband did----""Does n''t Mr. Ditmar like Shady Nook?"
43583If she had been responsible for the kidnaping of Mary Louise, why was the girl so polite to her?
43583Is it in the papers?"
43583Is it-- Cliff?"
43583Is n''t there some policeman we can get to watch our house?"
43583Is this a hospital?"
43583Is this man the criminal type, Cliff?"
43583Is this the grocery?"
43583It''s about my daughter Rebecca, ai n''t it?
43583Mary Lou, what can we do?
43583No-- but maybe----""Maybe what?"
43583Now you answer a question for me: Who do you think set the Hunters''bungalow on fire-- Cliff himself, or that Mr. Ditmar, the architect, or the kids?"
43583Now, can you think of anybody else?"
43583Oh, what shall I do?"
43583Or did the Flicks buy groceries from you anyhow?"
43583Pretty, is n''t she?"
43583Remember her?"
43583Remember that time we wanted to give an entertainment for the Red Cross and he tried to charge us fifty dollars for using his dining room?
43583Remember the time they locked that little boy in the boathouse and almost left him there all night?"
43583Remember?
43583She''s all right, ai n''t she?"
43583Should she add Hattie''s name too?
43583So will you tell us when you left Flicks''--and all you know about it?"
43583Suppose Jane and I run over?"
43583The canoe?"
43583The girl who saved France, you remember?"
43583The girl who saved the Smith baby in the fire?"
43583Turning to Tom she asked,"Is Hattie over at the farm?"
43583Want to come with me, Jane?"
43583Was Miss Stone joking, or did the patient really believe she was Joan of Arc?
43583Was this plan just another proof of the Ditmars''guilt in the burning of the cottages?
43583Was what she said the truth, or only a figment of her crazy brain?
43583We could hire Hattie Adams to wash dishes, and I could cook, and you and Jane could wait on the tables.... Would you, Mary Louise?"
43583We''ve got to cook our camp meals, have n''t we?
43583What could be simpler?"
43583What could have happened to Mary Louise?
43583What could he do?"
43583What did he care about those four fellows?
43583What gave you that idea?"
43583What had he done to Mary Lou?
43583What in the world did she want?"
43583What time do we start?"
43583What were they planning to do to her?
43583What, I asked myself, could the job be except setting those houses on fire?
43583When did I promise him?"
43583Where is he, Mary Lou?
43583Where shall we go first?"
43583Where?"
43583Who around here could owe you a hundred smackers?"
43583Who cares, anyhow?
43583Who is he?
43583Who would n''t have?
43583Who would n''t?"
43583Who''s your third suspect-- the one you called a possible chance?"
43583Whom should she inform first?
43583Why do n''t you come over and go in with the crowd, now that you have n''t any job?
43583Why do you think that there will be another fire?"
43583Why must girls always talk?"
43583Why?"
43583Why?"
43583Why?"
43583Will you be home then?"
43583Will you get me a drink of water, Mary Louise?"
43583Will you promise me that?"
43583Would n''t you rather walk by yourself than have these men carry you?"
43583Would you-- go into it with me, Mary Louise?"
43583You do n''t mind, do you, Jane?"
43583You do n''t want to be with them, do you?"
43583You know the two new bungalows that were put up here this year-- beyond Flicks''?"
43583You pay me by tonight, or I''ll----""You''ll what?"
43583You really do n''t think the Flicks''Inn was just an accident?"
43583You remember hearing Freckles describing a queer creature he saw last night on his way home from the woods?
43583You saw that?"
43583You were here when it happened?"
43583You would n''t mind-- if it was something about your family?"
43583You''ll sleep out with me, wo n''t you?"
43583You''ve heard of Girl Scouts, have n''t you?"
12729''Afterwards''?
12729A barbecue, real western style, with a whole cow on the fire?
12729A coward?
12729A sleepy head?
12729After the fright we''ve had? 12729 After we get things to rights,"inquired Reade,"what is to be the programme for the day?"
12729All in Greg''s ear?
12729Always wears these things, you say?
12729And be locked up some more?
12729And guess who offers the reward?
12729And has my son never been in school?
12729And is Mr. Hibbert a detective, too?
12729And leave our camp to be trampled down and made a complete wreck by a lot of crazy cattle?
12729And now, what did we come out here in the woods for?
12729And what are you doing here? 12729 And what may that be?"
12729And what''s that?
12729And you can hardly walk?
12729And you did n''t see the fellow?
12729And, if we find him?
12729And--- afterwards?
12729And--- then?
12729Any of you boys know where to get some blueberries?
12729Anyone going to want any of it?
12729Anything else missing?
12729Are n''t you going to do anything with the car in the creek?
12729Are the woods dry enough for a little botanizing?
12729Are these favorites of yours?
12729Are we bothering you any here?
12729Are we still on the right trail, and merely a mile behind him?
12729Are you all right now?
12729Are you fellows ever going to hustle about and make some moves toward getting breakfast?
12729Are you going to be a man, Tag, or just a sneaking coward?
12729Are you going to leave the cattle on the clearing?
12729Are you going to play the baby act?
12729Are you going to turn collector, too?
12729Are you going, now, to tip the officers off that you''ve seen me?
12729Are you hurt?
12729Are you satisfied, now?
12729Bad?
12729Bail?
12729Bill Mosher?
12729But I think I have a right to object when I see a human being tormented needlessly, have n''t I?
12729But are we safe, too?
12729But how will I know Mr. Hibbert, when I see him?
12729But how?
12729But now, what are we going to have for supper?
12729But what if Dick does n''t sell it?
12729But what was the shooting about?
12729But what''s the idea? 12729 By the way, do you want any help?"
12729Ca n''t we all go together?
12729Ca n''t we come over again before to- morrow?
12729Ca n''t you free yourself?
12729Ca n''t you take me in your car, Doctor, and help me to pursue them?
12729Can you see anything?
12729Can you stand?
12729Can you tell me what shop that is over there?
12729Close to a hundred dollars?
12729Conscience?
12729Dan, wo n''t you throw a lot more wood on the fire?
12729Darrin, will you help the prisoner to his feet and lead him back to where the bridge was? 12729 Dave and Greg, you''ll join me in going with the officers, wo n''t you?"
12729Dick, do you remember what we came out here in the woods for?
12729Dick, were n''t you sorry, afterwards, that you did n''t hold out flat for two hundred dollars?
12729Dick, when you found me asleep why did n''t you call me?
12729Dick,inquired the doctor,"where do you think we could pitch camp best?"
12729Did Prescott tell you I was tough?
12729Did any of you fellows recover the steaks? 12729 Did he tear your rings off recklessly, and hurt your hands?"
12729Did n''t you have the price?
12729Did you get that car out of the creek?
12729Did you get the thief, boys?
12729Did you hear that?
12729Did you leave that chauffeur to watch your camp?
12729Did you sell the canoe?
12729Did you''holler''then?
12729Do n''t they think that we need attention?
12729Do n''t you suppose I know who my father is? 12729 Do n''t you young men like ice cream?"
12729Do n''t you?
12729Do we?
12729Do you believe Dick can get ninety dollars for the canoe?
12729Do you boys know anything about Tag Mosher?
12729Do you demand to know why you''re under arrest?
12729Do you fellows?
12729Do you know anything about the burning of the clearing?
12729Do you know him by sight, then?
12729Do you mean that you ca n''t walk?
12729Do you mean that you''ll_ teach_ me?
12729Do you mean the portable houses of the Bentley party?
12729Do you mean to say that you do n''t hold even a bit of a grudge for that severe beating you got?
12729Do you really want to know what I got?
12729Do you remember what I told you about your father, his love for you, and his desire to meet and claim you?
12729Do you remember what I told you the other day?
12729Do you see any trees ablaze?
12729Do you see what the poem is to be?
12729Do you think I could wait another minute?
12729Do you think we''ll have to take fifty?
12729Do you think you can get that much?
12729Doc, you''ll take the boys back to their camp, wo n''t you?
12729Does Tag know how to run a car?
12729Does he take us for a human meal ticket with six coupons?
12729Does it?
12729Does it?
12729Doing anything, Reade?
12729Eaten up your creams?
12729Eh?
12729For how much?
12729Get up?
12729Has he always been your family physician?
12729Have you any clue, as yet?
12729Have you found traces of Tag Mosher?
12729Have you guessed what it is?
12729Have you seen anything of the prowler?
12729He''s--- at large?
12729Hello, where have you fellows been?
12729Hibbert, is that you?
12729His wife is dead, is n''t she?
12729How about my pudding?
12729How did we do it, boys?
12729How did you come to catch him?
12729How did you men know that we were here?
12729How do you do, boys?
12729How does that strike you?
12729How far off?
12729How is Clara?
12729How long ago?
12729How many such regiments of guards as Darry, would it take to guard this camp properly at night?
12729How many?
12729How old a man was he?
12729How soon is that going to happen?
12729How was it?
12729Hysterical?
12729I wonder how the girls got through the rain last night?
12729I wonder if Mr. Leigh is dead yet?
12729I wonder if Tag ever did really have a chance to be decent? 12729 I wonder if Tag has died yet, as he expected to, now that he''s out of the forest and locked up in a jail?"
12729I wonder what is under those bushes?
12729I wonder what on earth is the reason that we have n''t heard from Mr. Hibbert, or from the Blinders agency, either?
12729I wonder why he stole one particular drug from your case?
12729I? 12729 If I could, do you suppose I''d be lying here talking to you now?"
12729If I had n''t been, do you suppose I''d have stayed with you as long as I have?
12729If I press the trigger of this pistol,challenged Tag,"will you be able to offer the girls much protection then?"
12729If we want to?
12729If you can ca-----Why, what''s up?
12729In other words, attending to your hunger?
12729Is Mr. Valden with you?
12729Is he talking about real money?
12729Is he well? 12729 Is he?"
12729Is it about food?
12729Is it necessary, Mr. Valden, to torment the prisoner?
12729Is it wise to try to do so much walking?
12729Is my father, as you call him, as rich as he was yesterday and the day before? 12729 Is n''t that luck for you?"
12729Is that Prescott''s camp?
12729Is that the only reason you have for trying to clean us all out of food?
12729Is there no end to this cow?
12729Is there no water there?
12729Is this the way you usually get your food?
12729Is your eyesight failing, Dave?
12729It ca n''t be that Tag means to commit suicide, as a last resort, can it?
12729It makes you feel weaker to stand, does n''t it?
12729It seems too bad to leave all this prime roast beef on the ground, does n''t it?
12729Knew what?
12729Man?
12729May I have a word aside with you, sir?
12729Me?
12729Meaning some of you boys?
12729Name of your family physician?
12729No bones broken, eh?
12729Not enough so you''d let him get away, if you met him?
12729Now, I wonder if I can really remember what it was I came out here for?
12729Now, fellows, what''s the lowest I''m to take for the canoe?
12729Now, fellows,Dick went on,"suppose we leave here and decide how we''re to lay out this money for our summer camp?"
12729Now, may I ask what you girls are doing here?
12729Now, what in the world do the boys think they''re going to do with a rope?
12729Oh, is n''t it?
12729Oh, it''s you, is it?
12729Oh, what''s the use of making a fuss, this time?
12729Oh, what''s the use?
12729Old Bill Mosher''s love?
12729Pardon me, but what do you want with a light?
12729Patient? 12729 Please may I beg off for five minutes?"
12729Prescott,broke in Mr. Ross, coming forward,"you do n''t begin to have enough knives, forks and plates to take care of this crowd, do you?"
12729Real money?
12729Say, are n''t you fellows going to hurry up and free me?
12729Say, what are you trying to give that thief?
12729Say,demanded Darry,"have we been exerting ourselves to thrash an ambulance case?"
12729See here, Dick,asked Tom anxiously,"are you sure--- positive, that is--- that it was honest to charge a hundred and fifty for that canoe of ours?"
12729Shall I make a prediction?
12729Shall I rouse one or two of the other fellows? 12729 So I''m no good for guard duty, eh?"
12729So Tag escaped, with some field artillery, and you officers are out after him?
12729So we''ve got to stay up the rest of the night, and mount guard every night, have we?
12729So you did n''t get a single glimpse of your--- your annoyer?
12729So you think your name is Mosher?
12729Son of Bill Mosher?
12729Stealing it, eh?
12729Tag Mosher?
12729Tag, are n''t you ever going to be serious?
12729Tag, did n''t you ever have any respect for a man''s word of honor? 12729 That you, Dick?"
12729Then the stampede has been stopped?
12729Then what about Colquitt?
12729Then will Tag be charged with manslaughter--- or murder?
12729Then you admit damaging the bridge?
12729Then, in other words, sir,asked Dave Darrin,"Tag Mosher is just a plain thief?"
12729Thunder?
12729To break the stampede?
12729Tom Reade will make the best foreman, wo n''t he?
12729Want any help, Dick?
12729Want any help?
12729Want me to make good?
12729Was Darry as efficient all through the guard tour as he is just now?
12729Was he pleased--- or even curious?
12729Was he the thief?
12729Was it the same fellow?
12729We know Dave ca n''t come, but where are the other boys?
12729We look pretty healthy, do n''t, we, sir?
12729We were just wondering, Mr. Simmons,spoke Prescott, rising,"if Mr. Leigh is dead yet?"
12729We''ll want a lot of firewood for that, wo n''t we?
12729Well, are you fellows coming down to my place to look over the catalogue?
12729Well, did you?
12729Well, if I cut prices in selected instances, that''s my own affair, is n''t it?
12729Well, shall we go on hunting for him?
12729Well, what do you want?
12729Well, what of it?
12729Well?
12729Well?
12729What are all you fellows laughing at?
12729What are those marks?
12729What are we to do this afternoon?
12729What are you doing here?
12729What are you doing, up at this time of night?
12729What are you going to do, anyway, sir?
12729What are you talking about, Tom?
12729What are you talking about?
12729What calls forth that severe remark?
12729What can we do for you, sir?
12729What can we do?
12729What could happen to him?
12729What did he say?
12729What did you get?
12729What did you learn?
12729What do you make of the whole business, fellows?
12729What do you say, Danny?
12729What do you say?
12729What do you think you''re going to be able to do up that tree?
12729What do you want to eat with the steak?
12729What do you want us to do for you by and by?
12729What do you want with me?
12729What does Bill offer? 12729 What else did we come out here for?"
12729What good would your word of honor be?
12729What have you been doing in that line?
12729What have you done now?
12729What have you got to say about it?
12729What is that you say?
12729What is the cot doing out here?
12729What kind of places, sir?
12729What medicine did he take, did you say, sir?
12729What news do you want?
12729What next?
12729What time should we go over?
12729What was it?
12729What was the matter, boys?
12729What was up?
12729What was?
12729What will you do to him if you catch him?
12729What would you do if you had the million--- right in your hand?
12729What''s Greg doing?
12729What''s behind the cloud? 12729 What''s going on here?"
12729What''s that? 12729 What''s the idea?"
12729What''s the matter?
12729What''s the matter?
12729What''s the matter?
12729What''s up?
12729What''s up?
12729What''s up?
12729What''s your own idea, Dick?
12729What?
12729What?
12729What?
12729What?
12729When was Tag here last?
12729Where are Mr. Colquitt and his party?
12729Where are you, friend?
12729Where can Dave be?
12729Where can we go?
12729Where did you read that fairy tale?
12729Where do you live, young man?
12729Where does that sister live?
12729Where is he? 12729 Where''s Dick?"
12729Where?
12729Which foot is it?
12729Which one first, sir?
12729Which way did that fellow go?
12729Who are you?
12729Who ripped the boards up?
12729Who said that I took fifty dollars for the canoe?
12729Who''ll watch camp this time while the rest of us go to swimming pool?
12729Who''s there?
12729Who?
12729Why about jail?
12729Why are you telling him we''re friends, and wo n''t hurt him?
12729Why did n''t you set up a roar as soon as he attacked you?
12729Why did n''t you wake me up in time to save me from all the joshing?
12729Why do you say that?
12729Why do you wish to clean us out of food?
12729Why not? 12729 Why not?"
12729Why not?
12729Why not?
12729Why should I have any other reason? 12729 Why should I want to see you in jail?"
12729Why should you want my hands up? 12729 Why should you want to reach them?"
12729Why, as well?
12729Why--- why--- where''s Darry?
12729Why? 12729 Why?"
12729Why?
12729Will a week of training table undo the harm of to- day''s big feasts?
12729Will these be enough?
12729Will you come with me?
12729Will you help me?
12729Will you mind if I keep that to myself, for just a little while?
12729Wo n''t you stay and have an ice with us?
12729Would n''t you like to have me come down to talk with you?
12729Would that young scamp bother our camp, really?
12729Would you go my bail, and trust me not to jump it?
12729Would you have tried to catch him, if we had n''t been with you?
12729Would you like one?
12729Yes,grinned Tom,"but how long would our canned goods hold out?
12729You boys have n''t been doing anything wrong, have you?
12729You did n''t catch him?
12729You did n''t get it?
12729You did n''t start off to put the officers on my track?
12729You do n''t see any men, do you?
12729You have found him? 12729 You have taken pains to find further verification of the fact that this unhappy boy is my son, have n''t you?"
12729You intended to look in on us, did n''t you?
12729You know how to put these things on, do n''t you?
12729You mean you''d like to see me tied up in the same fashion, and then discover whether I could keep my temper under such circumstances?
12729You remember the errant that brought us into the woods?
12729You sold the canoe, I think, Dick?
12729You''d rather sit down, would n''t you, Tag?
12729You''ll tell the officers you saw me here, wo n''t you?
12729You''re not fooling, are you?
12729You''re not hurt?
12729You''re not making any mistake, either?
12729You''ve a mighty fine opinion of me, have n''t you?
12729You, Tag?
12729Young man, are you going to get that heart to cooking before it goes bad in the sun?
12729Your nerves shattered?
12729Your word of honor?
12729After that meal was over Dave asked:"We''re going to keep regular guard to- night, are n''t we?"
12729All ready, fellows?"
12729All ready?"
12729All that we want to do is to-----""Get back to camp?"
12729And what must I do to win that fine opinion?"
12729And why is n''t being hungry a good enough reason?"
12729And you''ll make my excuses satisfactorily to Miss Meade?"
12729Anyone going with me?"
12729Are you going to hurry up and cut away this rope?"
12729Are you such a coward, Mosher, that you''re afraid of an unarmed fellow that you could thrash even if you were unarmed?
12729Are you the chap who collected our steaks this evening?"
12729Are you two young men ready to escort them?"
12729Bentley?"
12729But me?
12729But the camp does n''t need a guard, does it?"
12729But where is he?
12729By Jove, it is, it?
12729CHAPTER XXI THE MEDICAL EXAMINER TALKS TRAINING"Do you want a suggestion, Prescott?"
12729Ca n''t you fellows see that?
12729Ca n''t you understand?"
12729Can you get into the car?"
12729Can you make out?"
12729Colquitt?"
12729Come, get up and come along, like a real fellow with real grit, wo n''t you?"
12729Could it be possible that Tag really was innocent of this last and most serious charge against him?
12729Darrin, will you place one of the lamps at either end of where the bridge was?
12729Dick was half- way to the tent when Darry called after him:"By the way, in what city is the Blinders''agency located?"
12729Dick, did you get a good look at him?"
12729Dick, shall the girls look for you within the next few minutes?"
12729Dick, you can look after both girls, ca n''t you?
12729Did n''t the boy know that Bill Mosher was n''t his real father?"
12729Did n''t you ever respect your own?"
12729Did they?
12729Did you do that?"
12729Did you leave anyone back at the camp?"
12729Did you wire for more detectives from your agency?"
12729Do you know what a schoolboy lynching is?"
12729Do you know what they would do to you?
12729Do you observe his right ear?"
12729Do you want to talk with me?"
12729Does he know that I am looking for him?"
12729Does the information convey any jar to your spine?"
12729Ever have a barbecue?"
12729Harry, will you go along with me and pick berries?"
12729Harry, wo n''t you go over to the doctor''s camp and stay there until the chauffeur returns?"
12729Has he still barrels of money that he''s waiting to hand me?
12729Have you any such marks as Mr. Colquitt has described?"
12729Have you been in the woods this morning?
12729Have you been keeping something back from me?"
12729Have you boys plenty of canned vegetables and the like?"
12729Hibbert?"
12729Hibbert?"
12729Hibbert?"
12729How could Bill get rich when he is in jail for drunkenness?"
12729How did the fellow attack you?"
12729How long since you have seen him?"
12729How many miles is it?"
12729How on earth did you make him wait for us?"
12729How''s your hip, Prescott?"
12729I went through those dog- houses--- what do you call them?"
12729I wonder if I''m wrong and the other fellows are right?
12729I wonder if he really is the son of that hard character called Bill Mosher?"
12729I wonder if they lock poor Hibbert up part of the time?"
12729I wonder why I feel so much sympathy for a fellow of this kind?"
12729If Mr. Hibbert were an amiable lunatic, what of Colquitt?
12729Is that what they call the sheriff now?"
12729Is there money enough in the crowd to buy five ice creams?"
12729Killed a farmer?"
12729Know anything about him?"
12729May I pass you some of this sirloin, Miss Marshall?"
12729Money?
12729Now, where''s the good in that kind of a pest?"
12729Of course, if you see Tag, you wo n''t tell him anything about our being here?"
12729Perhaps he is now one of your own party?
12729Queer in me, is n''t it?"
12729Ross?"
12729Shall we go on with the collecting?"
12729Shall we now go back to camp, or were you intending to go further into the woods?"
12729Take''em off, wo n''t you?
12729The next dozen of eggs?"
12729Then, after a pause, their host asked of Greg:"Would you like always to have plenty of money?"
12729There will be no objection to that, will there?"
12729They are pretty wet, are n''t they?"
12729Was he very rough with you?"
12729We boys can take to trees, but how about the girls?
12729What are you going to do?"
12729What do you want us to do for you?"
12729What on earth could it mean?
12729What shall we do next?
12729What was the matter with the rest of you, sleepy heads, or did you hear and feel that it might be dangerous to turn out in the middle of the night?"
12729What''s the good of using the dummy, anyway, when we have plenty of live fellows around here?"
12729Where is your home?"
12729Whose business are you minding?"
12729Why are you keeping me from him?
12729Will you young men oblige me with your company?"
12729Wo n''t you oblige me?"
12729Would n''t it be better to hold on to our fruit of the mint?"
12729You boys have n''t any ice here, have you?"
12729You have told him, and have kept him here against my coming?"
12729You know what they say I did to that farmer?"
12729Young woman, have you still some of those cantaloupes, which you cut open and fill with different flavors of cream and water ice?"
29859A letter for me, eh?
29859About me?
29859Adventures, eh?
29859All I want to know is: Is he a real nephew of yours or not?
29859All alone? 29859 All?
29859And are you sure the fire is entirely out?
29859And did n''t they hear anything at all?
29859And did you notice the bath- houses?
29859And did you read that letter?
29859And do you really think it was a headache, Laura?
29859And do you think the bears keep the deer away from here?
29859And has n''t he been able to get any trace of your Uncle Lester?
29859And how is it you are here?
29859And is he a regular member of your company?
29859And is that the so- called wild man?
29859And may I ask what the thing was that you knew about him that caused you to drop him?
29859And so Nat thinks that Ward Porton is mixed up in it, eh? 29859 And what did this Ward Porton have to say?"
29859And what of the road?
29859And where does he get all that outlandish outfit?
29859And where would you go if you had the chance?
29859And you say that letter was signed by a man named Obadiah Jones?
29859And you''ve been up here ever since?
29859Angry? 29859 Any danger of a bear coming to eat us up?"
29859Any luck?
29859Any particular place you''d like to go?
29859Anybody hurt up there?
29859Anybody hurt?
29859Anything broken?
29859Are n''t you Mr. Lester Lawrence?
29859Are n''t you folks coming up?
29859Are you certain of this?
29859Are you going back to the bungalows?
29859Are you lying down?
29859Are you quite sure you can manage him, Phil?
29859Are you ready?
29859Are you sure that it was not an old letter delayed in delivery?
29859But Da- Dave, has n''t Laura to- told you?
29859But how does that affect the title to the land?
29859But how have you managed to live?
29859But what about leaving that tree in the roadway? 29859 But what are we going to do with the automobiles after we reach Carpen Falls?"
29859But what are we going to do with the bungalows in the meantime?
29859But what are you going to do there, if I may ask?
29859But what are you talking about, Belle?
29859But what did you think he looked like, Ben?
29859But what do you want to know all this for?
29859But what was your purpose?
29859But what will you do if you capture that wild man?
29859But what would the bear be doing among that stuff?
29859But where is the cow?
29859But who will go with us?
29859But why did n''t you communicate with father?
29859But you did pull her out of the water; did n''t you, Dave?
29859But you said you would call on her in Boston; did n''t you?
29859But you''ll want supper first; wo n''t you?
29859By the way,he continued,"what did you mean by telling Dave that he was not Dave Porter?"
29859Ca n''t you do anything for it?
29859Call Mr. Wadsworth; will you?
29859Can we do anything for your ankle?
29859Can you make it, Dave?
29859Care? 29859 Come up here to do some shooting, I suppose, just as soon as the season opens?"
29859Come, what are you so mysterious about?
29859Dad, why ca n''t we take another small boat and go out?
29859Dave, ca n''t you go a little slower?
29859Dave, did n''t you say, after you came from Cave Island, that Link said something about reforming?
29859Dave, do n''t you think we ought to be going?
29859Dave, do you think Link Merwell had anything to do with this?
29859Dave, do you think this had anything to do with what Link Merwell said when we caught him-- that you were not Dave Porter?
29859David, why did he run away?
29859Did Mr. Porter tell you what a grand hero he is, Miss Wadsworth?
29859Did he drop into the water?
29859Did he know we were up here?
29859Did he make a bad investment?
29859Did he say anything about Job Haskers?
29859Did n''t he live with his parents?
29859Did n''t you have a fight?
29859Did n''t you hear the captain say that the fire was out?
29859Did n''t you slip on the rocks?
29859Did the lightning hit the machine?
29859Did the lightning strike you?
29859Did the man give his address?
29859Did they hurt you at all?
29859Did they take any of our valuables?
29859Did you come to Crumville with Merwell?
29859Did you find any other snakes?
29859Did you get it, Uncle Dunston?
29859Did you have a fight?
29859Did you hit anything?
29859Did you know them, Nat?
29859Did you make him a prisoner?
29859Did you meet that wild man more than once?
29859Did you notice those automobiles that just went by?
29859Did you see a wildcat? 29859 Did you shoot him?"
29859Disappeared?
29859Do I?
29859Do n''t you feel well?
29859Do n''t you remember me? 29859 Do n''t you remember that all of those who saw this Ward Porton agreed that he looked very much like Mr. Dunston Porter?"
29859Do n''t you remember, he is one of the villainous fellows who robbed Mr. Wadsworth''s jewelry works a year or so ago?
29859Do n''t you want me to get you anything at all?
29859Do you know anything of that wild man who is in this vicinity?
29859Do you know what I think he''s trying to do?
29859Do you mean that old blue box that stood in the back of the garret?
29859Do you mean the man who disappeared so mysteriously after that robbery?
29859Do you mean to say that he disappeared for good?
29859Do you really mean that?
29859Do you really think so?
29859Do you suppose it can be a plot hatched up by Link Merwell?
29859Do you think Link will come up here?
29859Do you think he is the same fellow we saw before-- the wild man?
29859Do you think he''s as bad as that?
29859Do you think there is any danger of our being blown over?
29859Do you want to spend all your life in prison?
29859Does she think the story is true?
29859East Haven? 29859 First fellow to stand up on the rock wins the prize,"announced Phil, and then he added quickly:"Girls, what''s the prize?"
29859Frightened? 29859 Furniture?"
29859Getting hungry already?
29859Going into the moving business instead of moving pictures, eh?
29859Going to put on the chains?
29859Good news? 29859 Got everybody?"
29859Had n''t I better put up the side curtains, too?
29859Has the land gone up in value since then?
29859Have we got to wait till twelve o''clock?
29859Have you any idea where he went to?
29859Have you any idea which way he went?
29859Have you heard something from home?
29859Have you your things packed, Dave?
29859He did n''t attack you, did he?
29859How about it, Dave?
29859How about it, Link?
29859How about that beautiful young lady you rescued from drowning?
29859How about that rope?
29859How about the one you hit; is it dead?
29859How about this pantry window, Mary? 29859 How did it happen, Ben?"
29859How did you make out?
29859How do you know? 29859 How do you make that out, with all that fire?"
29859How far do you think it is to that smoke?
29859How in the world did you come to follow me to this faraway place?
29859How in the world did you get here?
29859How many miles is it to Carpen Falls from here?
29859How will you get him to jail?
29859I do n''t suppose you''ll want to go back by automobile?
29859I know, Jessie, I''ll be myself; but who will I be? 29859 I say: Are n''t you Mr. Lester Lawrence?"
29859I suppose I''m not to have anything to eat?
29859I suppose if you saw a shark, Shadow, you''d jump right overboard to interview him, would n''t you?
29859I suppose the boys have told you why I did it?
29859I suppose you saw us acting just now?
29859I wonder how long I''ve got to wait before I hear from Crumville?
29859I wonder how long it will take us to reach that vessel?
29859I wonder if I ca n''t do something?
29859I wonder if we could n''t go up to that cliff and track him in some way from there?
29859If so, Roger, would he be fool enough to notify me beforehand?
29859If we go in the autos who is going to drive?
29859Is Dave Porter going along to the Falls?
29859Is Mr. Wadsworth staying up here with you?
29859Is Porton at your camp now?
29859Is he dead, Roger?
29859Is he-- he-- coming after me?
29859Is he-- is he de-- dead?
29859Is his family with him?
29859Is n''t it perfectly lovely?
29859Is n''t saving my life a good deal?
29859Is n''t that grand?
29859Is n''t there some sort of garage at Carpen Falls?
29859Is n''t there something I can do?
29859Is n''t this the strangest thing that ever happened? 29859 Is that possible?"
29859Is that so? 29859 Is that so?
29859Is that so? 29859 Is that so?
29859Is that so? 29859 Is there any particular reason for it?"
29859Is this Mr. Obadiah Jones?
29859Is your headache worse?
29859It gets to be an old story with us; does n''t it, Aunt Bess?
29859It was a little barefaced; was n''t it?
29859Link, do you think you are treating me just right? 29859 Look like what, Roger?"
29859Looked like what, Ben?
29859Looks like a house moving; does n''t it?
29859Mary, were all the things here when you went to bed?
29859May I ask what brought you to Crumville?
29859Me? 29859 Miss Ford is a stunning girl; is n''t she?"
29859Nat Poole''s uncle?
29859No bad news I hope?
29859No bad news I hope?
29859No bad news, I hope?
29859Now the question is: Who lives there?
29859Of course they are searching for him?
29859Oh, Belle, if matters are as you think they are, what in the world are we going to do?
29859Oh, Dave, are n''t you afraid he will make you a lot of trouble?
29859Oh, Dave, are you sure the snake did n''t drop into the water after you?
29859Oh, Dave, did I hurt you?
29859Oh, Dave, did you catch him?
29859Oh, Mrs. Basswood, do n''t you think this would be a lovely place to have lunch?
29859Oh, Pa, would n''t that be rather hard on him?
29859Oh, but you know, Jessie----"Dave, do you know that Laura and Ben are sitting right behind us?
29859Oh, so that''s your game, is it?
29859Oh, so you know him, do you?
29859Oh, then he was here, was he? 29859 Phil Lawrence?
29859Sa-- say, do n''t you think we had be-- be-- better run for it?
29859Say, Dave, what sort of a snake do you suppose that was?
29859Say, Roger, take yourself off my feet; will you?
29859Say, Shadow, what are you making so much noise about?
29859Say, how do you expect a fellow to get over these rocks with his hands tied behind him?
29859Say, who won this race, anyhow?
29859Say, who''s talking about mountains on the front seat?
29859See anything worth looking at outside of the scenery?
29859Settled? 29859 Shadow, how could you bear to tell such a story?"
29859Shadow, is that a true story or a made- up yarn?
29859Shall we get out?
29859Shoot him? 29859 Something else?
29859Suppose he comes down here?
29859Supposing four of us fellows jump into the four- oared boat and row up to the Appleby camp? 29859 Supposing we go along the shore, Dave?"
29859Taking a little exercise, eh?
29859That man, whoever he is, ought to be put under guard,declared Phil, and then he added quickly:"Did you get any letters, Ben?"
29859The wild man who scared us into fits the other day?
29859Then Link Merwell was on board that vessel?
29859Then suppose I talk to Dave?
29859Then that is why you broke with him?
29859Then the bear got away?
29859Then you do n''t think we''ll reach Carpen Falls to- night?
29859Then you do n''t want to stay and take part in that other picture?
29859Then you must have met Merwell in Boston?
29859They did?
29859Think I''ll run away, eh?
29859Uncle Dunston, do n''t you want to let me drive?
29859Up at your camp?
29859WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT?
29859Want me to take the wheel?
29859Was anybody lost?
29859Was he a member of your company?
29859Was it William who paid the bill or was it Bill who had to put up several Williams to pay for it?
29859Was it a poisonous snake?
29859Was that young actor, Ward Porton, with him?
29859Was this Obadiah Jones the man he said was his uncle?
29859We have n''t got to race back, have we?
29859Well, I''ll think about it,answered Dave, hesitatingly; and then he went on to Mr. Appleby:"By the way, is Ward Porton still with you?"
29859Well, Merwell, so they have caught you; have they?
29859Well, if you''re not so very, very sick, Jessie, wo n''t you just come to the door a minute? 29859 Well, it would be a great trip for both of us; would n''t it?"
29859Well, what''s the prize?
29859Well, why not sell the land then-- unless you think it is worth more than the railroad company is willing to pay?
29859Were you going to answer this letter, Nat?
29859What about that rascal; have you heard something further of him?
29859What about you fellows?
29859What are you fellows confabbing about?
29859What are you going to do about this, Dave?
29859What are you going to do with me when you get me to Carpen Falls?
29859What are you going to do, Dave-- try to turn around here or back down?
29859What are you looking at, Dave?
29859What did he do, Ben?
29859What did he have to say, Nat?
29859What did you get out for?
29859What did you shoot at?
29859What do you mean by that?
29859What do you say about starting on a regular hunt to- morrow?
29859What do you say, Aunt Bess; shall we do it?
29859What do you say, Jessie?
29859What do you suppose he has to do with it, Roger?
29859What do you think it is-- a fire?
29859What do you think of it, Dave?
29859What do you think of it?
29859What do you think of it?
29859What do you think, Aunt Bess?
29859What do you want me to do when he comes, hold him a prisoner?
29859What do you want to tell me?
29859What does your father propose to do about the land?
29859What does your father say, Dave?
29859What if I did? 29859 What if they prove I am not the real Dave Porter, Jessie-- will you care very much?"
29859What is it all about? 29859 What is it, Jessie?"
29859What is it, Laura?
29859What is it, Mary?
29859What is it, Porter? 29859 What is it?
29859What is it?
29859What is it?
29859What is it?
29859What is it?
29859What is that, Dad?
29859What is that?
29859What is the trouble?
29859What is the trouble?
29859What makes you say they are bound to come?
29859What makes you think that?
29859What now, Laura?
29859What of him? 29859 What place is your steamer bound for?"
29859What sort of a company is that-- a theatrical company?
29859What sort of adventures-- a shipwreck?
29859What was it? 29859 What was that?"
29859What will you do if you ca n''t make it, Dave?
29859What will you do with him to- night?
29859What will you do; send word to Crumville and then go back to camp?
29859What would an ordinary burglar do with a lot of kitchen utensils, not to mention canned goods and stuff from an ice- box?
29859What would you like to do best of all?
29859What''s that?
29859What''s the matter with a crack at a bear?
29859What''s the matter with all taking a shot at him at the same time?
29859What''s the racket?
29859What''s the trouble?
29859What''s the trouble?
29859What''s up? 29859 What''s worrying me is: How am I going to get out of this fix?
29859What? 29859 What?"
29859When do we stop for that lunch?
29859When you spoke to him about Merwell did Porton stand up for the fellow?
29859Where are you going to take me, anyhow?
29859Where are you staying, Miss Wadsworth?
29859Where did he go?
29859Where did you run across him?
29859Where did you see the bear last, Phil?
29859Where have you kept yourself since you ran away from Mr. Appleby''s camp?
29859Where is Ben?
29859Where is Uncle Dunston?
29859Where is it?
29859Where is that steam yacht bound for?
29859Where shall we race to?
29859Where''s Jessie?
29859Who are these; some of your school chums?
29859Who brought him up?
29859Who can it be?
29859Who do you think we met?
29859Who is he? 29859 Who is he?"
29859Who is it?
29859Who said I was Lester Lawrence?
29859Who says he is Philip Lawrence?
29859Who told you that?
29859Who was it?
29859Who was she?
29859Who''s that fellow who attacked you, Link?
29859Why did n''t you show yourself; were you afraid?
29859Why do n''t you make it a two- thousand- pound bear while you are at it?
29859Why do n''t you try them both?
29859Why not advertise again?
29859Why not like bears, if we are going to Bear Camp?
29859Why should I? 29859 Why should n''t she like Miss Ford, Belle?
29859Why, how can that be, Phil?
29859Why, how is that?
29859Why, what made him do that? 29859 Why, what would be the harm?"
29859Why, you do n''t want anybody to be drowned, do you?
29859Why?
29859Wilbur Poole?
29859Will she come up again?
29859Will you let me see it?
29859Will you stop?
29859Wo n''t the others be surprised when they hear of it?
29859Wo n''t the railroad company lease the land?
29859Wo n''t the railroad company take the land without your uncle being represented in the deed?
29859Wo n''t you explain?
29859Wo n''t you please tell me your name?
29859Wonder what it was?
29859Wonder what time it is?
29859Would n''t you think a fellow who had been so close to death would want to reform?
29859Would you indeed?
29859Yes, what of it?
29859You are not going to act with them, are you, Dave?
29859You did n''t break the steering- gear, did you?
29859You did n''t open the window this morning?
29859You do n''t mean Wilbur Poole, the wild man we caught in the woods back of Oakdale?
29859You do n''t suppose there''s any danger of our upsetting?
29859You got a letter, did n''t you?
29859You have, Phil?
29859You put us in quite a hole; do you know that?
29859You remember what Link Merwell said; do n''t you?
29859You say he is a criminal?
29859You say he is older than your father?
29859''Catch anything?''
29859''Do you mean to say that you met a shark on land?''
29859''How''s fishing?''
29859''Is that so?''
29859''Say, how is it going?''
29859''Then what do you mean by saying the fishing is good?''
29859--_Page 179._]"What''s the matter over there?"
29859A bird, eh?
29859And how is that?"
29859And if they do make up their minds that I am not the real Dave Porter, I wonder how they will treat me?
29859And then he added:"I wonder if he''ll call himself the King of Sumatra, as he did before?"
29859And then he went on quickly:"Did Job Haskers escape?"
29859And would you go all alone?"
29859Any of you young fellows want to have a try at it?"
29859Are we to go back to that boat?"
29859Basswood?"
29859But it''s settled; is n''t it, Jessie?"
29859But now what do you think has happened?"
29859By the way, Uncle Lester, have you seen him since then?"

29859Dave Porter?
29859Dave, what in the world are those folks doing?"
29859Did n''t I tell you I do n''t want any preaching?
29859Did n''t I tell you I was coming to see Dave?
29859Did n''t I tell you that was only some of Ben''s nonsense?
29859Did n''t you ever hear from him?"
29859Did n''t you hear me tell her to quit it?"
29859Did you hear that?"
29859Did you leave it open last night?"
29859Did you?"
29859Do n''t you know that shortly after you disappeared the bank authorities and the police found the guilty parties?"
29859Do n''t you look just like your Uncle Dunston?
29859Do n''t you remember that I told you of it?
29859Do n''t you see the joke?"
29859Do n''t you see the man over there with the camera?
29859Do n''t you think we had better be getting back, Dave?"
29859Do you mean in that wet place?"
29859Do you mean it''s bad news?"
29859Do you mean the one that caught fire?"
29859Do you think that is what has made Jessie act so queerly for the last couple of days?
29859Has anything happened at home?
29859Hold me responsible, eh?
29859How about that, Belle?"
29859I ca n''t help it if she is grateful-- as you put it-- for my saving her from drowning; can I?"
29859I suppose he brought you to this farm?"
29859If he was not Dave Porter, who was he?
29859Is sh-- she d-- dead?"
29859Is that so?"
29859Is that the place across the river from where you live?"
29859It is n''t my father; is it?"
29859Laura, do you know?"
29859Lawrence?"
29859Mr. Porter, could n''t you show me how to do it?"
29859Nat, what caused him to write to you?
29859Now, what did he mean by that?
29859Perhaps you remember the box?"
29859Porter?"
29859Rather an old- fashioned name; is n''t it?"
29859She grabbed up a broomstick and began to hammer that bear right on his nose, and would you believe me?
29859So now I''m the one who''s silly; am I?"
29859That was what you wanted-- to go back; was n''t it?"
29859This is fierce; is n''t it?"
29859WHERE ARE YOU GOING?"
29859Wadsworth?"
29859Was it Wilbur Poole?"
29859Were n''t you frightened?"
29859What are you doing-- fishing?"
29859What are you talking about?"
29859What can I do for you?"
29859What difference will it really make?
29859What do you mean by that?"
29859What do you mean?"
29859What is missing?"
29859What is that?"
29859What is the trouble?"
29859What is there for me to be angry about?"
29859What luck?"
29859What right had you to send me that note and call me a''poorhouse nobody''?"
29859What was that?"
29859What with-- a frying- pan?"
29859What''s the trouble?"
29859What, with Sid Todd with me?
29859What?"
29859Whatever will he do if he gets stuck fast?"
29859Where are you bound?"
29859Where are you going?"
29859Where are you going?"
29859Where is it?"
29859Where is it?"
29859Where?"
29859Who fouled me that way?"
29859Why do n''t you shoot?"
29859Wo n''t you please open the door and let me talk to you?"
29859Would n''t you like to take a trip like that, Jessie?"
29859Would n''t you think it was for a prize of a thousand dollars?"
29859You think I am silly, do you?
29859You would n''t have me let her drown; would you?"
29859_ Page 253._]"How are we going to get those down to the bungalows?"
29859but it was quite an adventure; now was n''t it?"
29859but this is luck; is n''t it?"
29859ca n''t you let me walk along without having my hands tied?"
29859can this be true?"
29859can this be true?"
29859cried Phil, and then added:"What''s the matter with a song?"
29859did you learn anything?"
29859did you say a snake?"
29859do you mean to say you have read them all?"
29859do you really think there is anything in that?
29859is that awful creature around here again?"
29859is that the way they do it?"
29859it ca n''t be true; can it?"
29859so you''ve caught him; have you?"
29859was n''t it awful?"
29859what are you reading?"
29859what can it mean?"
29859what did we try to do, Dave-- climb a tree?"
29859what did you do; sock him one?"
29859what kind of a noise is that?"
29859what was that?"
29859what will you have-- a ham sandwich or one with chicken?"
29859what''s the use of trying to tell a story now?
29859who is hurt?"
29859who''s afraid of a little cold water?"
29859you surely do n''t mean that?"
