6818Then came the thought, Why despair while two matches remain?
6818Then in a calm of the storm( which he continued to ignore) Pierre turned to me and said:"Why do n''t you go back and try the canoe route?
6818To the Museum?"
6818To what extent are they being destroyed?
6818Was I content?
6818We now had unlimited food as well as unlimited firewood; what more could any one ask?
6818What a glorious sound of woods and life triumphant it seemed; and why did he drum at night?
6818What if a wind should arise( it had been glassy calm for a week)?
6818What if they could'', not get back?"
6818What will be the ultimate history of this jamb?
6818When one is in Texas the topic of conversation is,"How are the cattle?"
6818Which are they?
6818Why are they so scarce?
6818Why is ice always thickest on the kettles?
6818Why?
6818Will it come?
6818Women do n''t do that way in your country, do they?"
6818You never saw blood- poisoning that colour, did you?"
6818and in New York,"How are you getting on with your novel?"
6818and is it on these far breeding grounds that man has proved too hard?
6818in the Klondike,"How is your claim panning out?"
6818who''s boss?''
21246And did they find out the thief and put the conjurers after him?
21246And where are we going to eat?
21246Anything more?
21246Are there any other birds in this country with claws or talons equal to those of this great owl?
21246Arrah, my man,shouted Sam,"and what are ye doing inside there?"
21246Bothered are you?
21246But did not the thieves hide them there so that they could go and get them, and sell them when the excitement of their loss had passed over?
21246But what about hydrophobia from the bites of the dogs and wild animals?
21246Can we not save the canoes?
21246Did not a Governor- General of Canada die from the wounds received from the bites of a fox?
21246Did you ever have one attack you?
21246Did you ever shoot a bear?
21246Did you see it first?
21246Do they go back to the same snowdrifts night after night?
21246How do the clever, experienced dogs attack bears?
21246How do you know it is Napoleon?
21246How do you like` O- jimmy- catch- the- cow''day, or whatever you call it?
21246How far away is it?
21246How in the world did you find out where this bear''s den is which you are inviting us to see?
21246How is it?
21246How many feet below us are the bears?
21246How was it possible that none of the dogs detected them?
21246I say, Frank and Alec,mischievously exclaimed Wenonah,"do n''t you know they keep Oo- che- me- ke- se- gou over at the mission?"
21246If he could stand that and let you survive, what next?
21246Is it not,said Frank,"a very uncertain way of marking the seasons?"
21246Is it true,said Sam to Mustagan,"that a bear sucks his paws like a baby does his thumb?"
21246Know him? 21246 Mean, is it, you ask?
21246Or did you ever try to get hold of a wounded one''s talons with your naked hand?
21246Pay or no pay,said Sam,"I would like to know where we are going to sleep in such a place as this?"
21246Sam, Sam,said Mrs Ross, who had heard this quaint reference to the old patriarch,"why do you thus bring in such names in your pleasantries?"
21246Supposing he survived that, or rather let you survive, what next would you cram him with?
21246That means,said Sam,"that every wolf within four hundred miles of us is mustering for the fight?"
21246Then is there a goose month also?
21246Think about it, do you ask me?
21246Wanted beaver, did you, and prepared to take it raw, and now it looks as though, if you get it, you will have to take it hot? 21246 Well, we know that is true,"said Alec;"but supposing the old fellow still left your head on your shoulders, what next would you tell him?"
21246Well, what will you enter for?
21246Were ye looking for the cows?
21246What about bears?
21246What about his pack of furs?
21246What about the more savage animals, such as the bears and wolves?
21246What about the pigs?
21246What about this saucy bird, here called whisky jack, that we meet with on all of our wintry journeys?
21246What are you going to do next?
21246What birds follow the eagles?
21246What do you mean?
21246What do you think about it, Sam?
21246What have you to say, Alec?
21246What in the world have you found in such a place to cause you to act like this?
21246What is the matter?
21246What is to be tried next?
21246What would you tell him,asked Alec,"supposing the old rascal were still alive, and should ask you to visit him and then set your tongue a- wagging?"
21246What, would you have him shoot this affectionate old bear?
21246Where are your singing birds?
21246Where do they sleep at nights?
21246Why, dare we do that,said Frank,"when the wolves are now all around us?"
21246A quoi bon?--What good is it?
21246And how fares it with the young folks about whom there is now naturally so much anxiety at Sagasta- weekee?
21246But what now cared Alec?
21246But where are the beavers?
21246But where is your cap?"
21246But why, Rachel, did you ask Frank to bring along his gun and ammunition?"
21246Can any of you tell old Kinesasis why it is so?"
21246Faith, and where is the landlord?"
21246Frank began his approaches by a liberal use of the contents of his pockets, and who ever knew a young dog proof against such an argument?
21246Have they any titles to the different places where they hunt year after year?"
21246Noiselessly they crawled to the top, and then as they peeked over whom should they see but Wahbunoo and Oosahmekoo in earnest talk?
21246One day, when Mr Hurlburt had about thirty men hard at work in the fields, what should come flying along on the south wind but a great flock of geese?
21246Or if I should get in a crack in the ice?
21246Then the question next asked is:"How much will each supply to make it a grand success?"
21246What are we to believe about it?"
21246What if anything should happen to my skates?
21246What is that?
21246What is that?
21246What was to be done?
21246When another hour had passed on Mr Ross could stand it no longer, and earnestly exclaimed:"Who saw Alec last?"
21246Where are the other two?
21246Where was I?
21246cold?
21246said Sam,"that I find myself picking out the fattest part of the meat and hardly caring to eat anything else?"
21246said Sam;"and where was the engine?"
21246they both shouted,"what do you mean?"
20849''Bout what thing, Mas''Sam?
20849Ai n''t I though?
20849Are you asleep, Joe?
20849Are you glad to be free, Joe?
20849Are you sure it is bright red?
20849But if you fill it with water it will sink, wo n''t it?
20849But, Sam, what if the water gets to us there?
20849Buy the farm, master? 20849 Can you, Joe?"
20849De brightest one, Mas''Sam?
20849De one whar''ole uncle Peter Dun lived so long?
20849Did you ever set a teacup in the water and see it float?
20849Do n''t you know me, Sam?
20849Do you see that bright star through the trees?
20849Does it come in a steady stream or in spurts?
20849Does_ you_ know whar Mas''Sam''s a- takin''us to, an''what he''s gwine to do when he gits dar?
20849Drowned? 20849 How did I do what, Tom?"
20849How did you make the sun set the cotton on fire?
20849How do you know?
20849How many of''em are there, Joe?
20849How you know den, dat he''s doin''de bes''thing?
20849How you know when he''s outen his head an''when he ai n''t?
20849How you mean, master?
20849How''s I gwine to buy it, master?
20849How''s that?
20849How''s we gwine to git de fire?
20849How, Mas''Sam?
20849I did; but he sticks to it, and--"Well, could n''t you explain it so that he would understand it and not have to trust to your judgment for it?
20849Is that the reason pa always looks over his spectacles when he looks at me?
20849Is the blood of a bright red, as it comes out, or a dark red?
20849Is you gwine to git it from de sun, Mas''Sam?
20849Lan''marks? 20849 Mas''Tom, don''you know Mas''Sam done been a- talkin''nonsense for two weeks now?"
20849Mas''Tom,said Joe that evening,"do you know my master?"
20849Mr. Butler? 20849 Now do you know how to set a trap with these triggers, Tom?"
20849Sam,he said,"how did you do that?"
20849That''s all very well,said Tom,"but how are we to do that?"
20849Well, how do you think, Joe?
20849Well, how would you like to buy it, Joe?
20849Well, what is it, Joe?
20849Well, what is it?
20849Well, what were you thinking, Joe?
20849Wha'', Mas''Tom?
20849Whar mus''we go, Mas Sam?
20849Whar''s ye gwine to, Mas''Sam?
20849Whar, Mas''Sam?
20849Whar? 20849 What can we do?"
20849What do you want, Joe?
20849What is it, Joe?
20849What is the matter with Joe?
20849What of it?
20849What on earth ails you, Joe? 20849 What wid, Mas''Sam?"
20849What''s dis?
20849What''s the good of having a big brother if he ca n''t take care of you? 20849 What''s the matter Joe?
20849When I found that we could not get to Fort Glass, the question was, where should we go? 20849 Where are all you, little people, and what do do you hide from me for?"
20849Where are they, and what were they doing?
20849Where did you learn all that, Sam?
20849Where did you see that?
20849Where have you been, Joe, since you left us?
20849Where is he?
20849Which- a- way''s what, Mas''Sam?
20849Why ca n''t we go to de fort now, or leastways, as soon as de Injuns goes away?
20849Why did n''t you tell him better, Tom?
20849Why has n''t it floated away long ago, then, Joe?
20849Why, how do you know that, Sam? 20849 Will you git mad if Joe axes you to shake han''s on dat, Mas''Tom?
20849Yes, but why did you have to wait till noon?
20849Yes; but how did you find it out?
20849Yes; but what has that to do with your plan, Joe?
20849And if so, what were they to do now?
20849And why had n''t he come already?
20849But we did fin''you, did n''t we Mas''Sam?"
20849But what if he should never return?
20849But what was he now to do?
20849Can you tell me who it was?"
20849Can you whistle like a kildee, Tom?"
20849Did you think Joe had runned away?
20849Do n''t you know he always knows what''s best?
20849Do you know my cypress farm,--the little one down in the fork of the two creeks?"
20849Do you know why some things float and others do n''t?"
20849Do you understand now?"
20849Do you understand that?"
20849Do you understand?"
20849Does the reader know what the"pan"of a rifle is?
20849Had he fallen into the hands of the Indians?
20849How did you manage it, and how came you to think of it?"
20849How does ye all do now?
20849How you know dis drif''did n''t all on it come here las''time de river was up?"
20849How?"
20849It''s when you ca n''t git your way dat you wish, ai n''t it?"
20849Kin you do dat for me, Mas''Tom?"
20849Now why ca n''t we scrape the outside off of a great deal of moss and have the dry inside ready for Sam to sleep on when he comes back?
20849So we must take Mas''Sam to whar''dey is doctors, do you see?"
20849Tell me that, will you?
20849That''s where Watkins''s house stood: now which way is it?"
20849Turning to Tom, he said:"The river is rising rapidly, is n''t it?"
20849WHERE IS JOE?
20849WHERE IS JOE?
20849We can go hungry till to- morrow, ca n''t we, little woman?"
20849What had become of him?
20849What on earth shall we do?"
20849What was now to be done?
20849What''s Joe got to buy wid?
20849Who will go with me?"
20849Why to de fort, an''I''se dun brung back a rescue too, did n''t I tell you?
20849Will you have your breakfast first, or will you wait until you get back home again before eating anything?"
20849You know light always goes in straight lines, if left to itself, do n''t you?"
20849what''s dem, Mas''Sam?
20849what''s that?"
20849will dey bite?"
46289And when was it?
46289And which are the most plentiful, the black or the grizzly?
46289And you say,said Jack,"that they are never disturbed?"
46289Are they like the one we killed at New Westminster?
46289Are those elk plenty?
46289Are you going to try to get them?
46289Armor?
46289British Columbia seems a long way off, does n''t it, George?
46289But then,said Mr. Sturgis,"you really did n''t hunt, did you?
46289But where did that lion come from?
46289But where did this armor come from, Hugh?
46289Did you ever go into a marble yard and see the people cutting the stone into blocks there? 46289 Do n''t you know, that the things these Indians here eat would be sort of poison to the Blackfeet?
46289Do n''t you want to go along, Jack?
46289Do the Indians make any use of the kelp?
46289Do you know, Jack,said Mr. Sturgis, when their journey was just about over,"that this country that we have been passing through is historic ground?"
46289Do you suppose it would be possible to tell anybody about those things so that they could really understand how they look?
46289Fannin,said Hugh, as they were passing along,"does this sort of thing happen regularly?
46289How did you come to eat owl, Hugh?
46289How do they cook them?
46289How do you mean?
46289Hugh,said Jack,"did you count the number of people at the village?"
46289I believe, Mr. Hunter,said Jack,"that you have travelled a great deal over the Province, have you not?"
46289I guess in those old days, bears killed a good deal of game, did n''t they?
46289I should say so,said Jack,"it makes my head swim to think of it, and that is being done all along the river, is n''t it?"
46289I suppose,said Jack,"that the Siwashes are mainly fishermen, are they not?
46289I suppose,said Jack,"that there are some deer on these islands, are there not?"
46289I suppose,said Jack,"that they have lost a good many of their primitive ways, have they not?"
46289If we make a canoe trip along the coast, as we were talking of doing, there might be a chance of getting deer along the shore, then?
46289Is he going over them again?
46289Is there any reason, Hugh,he asked,"why I should not kill one of these birds?"
46289Is there much of it to be had? 46289 It looks some like a little camp on the plains when there has been a killing and the meat is just hung up to dry, does n''t it, son?"
46289It suits me,said Hugh,"but where will this bring us out?"
46289It''s a lot, is n''t it?
46289Look at those little grassy spots scattered here and there along the mountain side,said Fannin;"how are those for goat pastures?
46289Mean?
46289Mr. Fannin,said Jack, after a pause,"I suppose when we get started we''ll have to paddle all the way?"
46289Now what does Mr. James say?
46289Now, Mr. Fannin, what more can you tell me about the salmon not taking bait in the fresh water? 46289 Oh, in the Rocky Mountains?"
46289Say, Hugh, what is that Indian doing in that canoe? 46289 Say, friend,"said Hugh,"you ai n''t joking, are you?"
46289Tell me, Mr. Fannin,he asked,"do n''t salmon bite after they get into the fresh water?
46289Tell me, Mr. Fannin,said Jack,"what game will we be likely to see on top of those mountains?"
46289That''s a wonderful thing to have seen, is n''t it?
46289That''s so, Uncle George,said Jack;"that goes back a long way, does n''t it?"
46289There, of course, your game is chiefly buffalo, I suppose, and they wander a good deal, do they not?
46289Well now, son,said Hugh,"is there no animal that these goats remind you of?"
46289Well, Hugh,said Jack,"what shall we do to- morrow?
46289Well, Mr. Fannin,asked Jack,"how do they mend these canoes when they break them?
46289Well,said Jack,"did you count the dogs?"
46289Well,said Jack,"how do they live?
46289Well,said Jack,"tell me, then, how do they keep themselves alive?"
46289What do you mean?
46289What is your country, if I may ask?
46289What sort of deer are these?
46289Where are they?
46289Why is it, Mr. James,he asked,"that nothing seems to grow on these great piles of pebbles and cobblestones?"
46289Why, how''s that, Hugh? 46289 Why,"exclaimed Jack,"how did sealing make you lose your leg?"
46289Will he be sure to hold on?
46289Yes,said Hugh,"I guess he''s dead, but what about the old goat?
46289Yes,said Jack,"I think I heard of that, but do n''t know that the story was ever told me in detail; what was it?"
46289You are an American, sir?
46289You do n''t mean,interrupted Jack,"that they run him down?"
46289A few moments later one of the Indians came up, and Hugh said:"Tom, do you know whose camp this is?"
46289A moment later Jack had run up to Mr. Fannin and asked:"Did I hit him?"
46289After this had been done, the fire kindled and the tent put up, Charlie called to them:"Why do n''t you men try that mud flat for clams?
46289Again he called out:"Do you think we will be able to catch any fish to- night?"
46289And what do you think that prince did?
46289Are you going to cross over any of those channels, or shall you follow the shore?"
46289At last Hugh turned to Jack, and said:"Son, did you ever imagine a place like this?"
46289At length he called out:"Mr. Fannin, ca n''t we stop here and try to catch some of these fish?
46289Before there was time given to reply, Mr. James asked:"Have either of you ever seen white goats?"
46289But what''s going to happen to all the old things that used to be in the country?
46289CHAPTER XII THE ISLAND DEER The next morning, after the canoe had been loaded, Hugh said to Fannin:"What''s the course of the canoe from here?
46289Can you explain it to me?"
46289Can you explain it to me?"
46289Did you ever see anything that seemed to you as big as this does?
46289Did you ever see such rocks, or such snow, or such a river as that one over there?
46289Did you, Hugh?"
46289Do all of them work, and get so much a day?"
46289Do n''t either of these Indians understand how to catch these fish or to kill these animals?"
46289Do n''t they look as if they were painted?
46289Do n''t you see how it shines, blue in the sunlight, just like one of the glaciers that we got sight of in the Piegan country?"
46289Do n''t you see that every stroke he makes he is bringing up some herrings?"
46289Do n''t you see that taut line reaching down into the water?"
46289Do n''t you see the white shiny specks on the pole every time he makes a stroke?"
46289Do these crows follow the hogs around all the time?"
46289Do they just cut off the head, or do they take out the backbone?"
46289Do you carry it with you everywhere?"
46289Do you realize how little is known about the work of these early explorers, traders, and trappers?
46289Does that mean that they do not take the bait in fresh water?"
46289Fannin?"
46289Fannin?"
46289Fannin?"
46289Fannin?"
46289Fannin?"
46289Fannin?"
46289Fannin?"
46289Galbraith?"
46289Go on farther or stop here and hunt?
46289Had we not better stop here and see if we ca n''t buy some dried salmon?
46289Have n''t you some fishing tackle there that you could throw overboard now, and let the bait follow the canoe?
46289Have you shot much with the rifle?"
46289How is that?
46289How much rope have you got?
46289How''s the edge of that rock there?
46289Hugh,"he went on,"where are bears most plenty back in our country?"
46289I could not understand what was the matter with him, and presently I said in a low voice:''What is the matter with you; what do you see?''
46289I do n''t know whether any of you men ever saw one?"
46289I do n''t mean for deer and goats, because I suppose these are found almost everywhere, but with some prospect of finding sheep, and perhaps elk?
46289I suppose it is one of the guillemots, is it not?"
46289I wonder if they got that from the Indians?
46289Is it sharp and likely to cut the rope, or does the soil and grass overhang it?"
46289Is n''t that so, Hugh?"
46289Is n''t that so, Hugh?"
46289It''s all mighty strange, but does n''t it show just how people fit themselves to the conditions that surround them?
46289Jack laughed at him and said:"Good shot, eh, Tom?"
46289Jack looked, but could see nothing, and before he could ask the question"Where?"
46289James?"
46289James?"
46289McIntyre?"
46289Mr. Hunter considered for a moment or two, and then said:"Do you want to make a little hunting trip of this kind, and now?"
46289Now, Mr. Fannin, have you seen much of the way bears of this country feed?"
46289Now, can you be ready to start on the stage at two o''clock?
46289Of course, you know that there are some ducks that build in the holes in the trees?"
46289Presently Jack said to the sailor:"We are not near enough to make a very good guess at the size of those fish; how big are they?"
46289Pretty heavy, is n''t it?"
46289That does not look as if they were changing rapidly, does it?"
46289That was a regular primitive implement, was n''t it?"
46289That''s a common sight here; it is always a beautiful one; but perhaps you have seen it in other places?"
46289The Indian did not move, but in a low voice said to Mr. James in the Chinook jargon:"What is that there in the water?"
46289The country will be new, even to you, Hugh, wo n''t it, as far east as Idaho?"
46289The question was, what should we do?
46289Then came the question:''Who should go for the grub?''
46289There must be a lot of factories just like this all along the river; what becomes of the people living farther up the stream?"
46289There, see him throw that one out?
46289They must be skilful canoemen, are n''t they?"
46289They pushed up to the beach, and when close to it saluted the old man with the usual phrase,"_ Kla- haw- ya tillicum?_"( How are you, friend?)
46289They pushed up to the beach, and when close to it saluted the old man with the usual phrase,"_ Kla- haw- ya tillicum?_"( How are you, friend?)
46289What are they made of, and how are they made?"
46289What are you doing here?''
46289What do the women do in preparing the salmon for drying?
46289What do you say, son?"
46289What do you say?"
46289What do you say?"
46289What is it like?"
46289What sort of footing have you, Jack?"
46289What''s going to happen to the game, to the buffalo, to the Indians?"
46289Where are your animals, and where can we get something to eat, and what time will the stores be open?"
46289Where do they get this money?
46289Where do you suppose he got them?"
46289Why is it that every little way here we find an immense cañon running away back into the mountains, and the sea ebbing and flowing in it?
46289Why should n''t they increase?
46289Will you tell me how they arrange them?"
46289You know what an ordinary landing net is, do n''t you-- a net such as we use for trout?"
46289You remember Old White Calf Robe?
46289You see these stages from which they are fishing?
46289hear that?
62301''Coon, indeed?
62301''Coon? 62301 A cook, do you say?
62301And you have n''t seen nor heard anything of Quorum since?
62301Are n''t there crocodiles, too, in Florida?
62301Are they yours?
62301Are you certain of that?
62301Are you hurt, old man?
62301Are you sure this is where we left them?
62301But did you ever hear of such a thing, mother? 62301 But how did you know the canoes were out at the light, Worth?"
62301But if he had caught and bitten you?
62301But if he should take it into his head to attack us?
62301But what shall we do with our deer?
62301But, Sumner, there are n''t any wild beasts or snakes on this key, are there?
62301But, Sumner,said Mrs. Rankin, gravely,"I hope your unhappiness does not arise from jealousy of another''s prosperity?"
62301Ca n''t we even shoot my gobbler if we meet him?
62301Camp?
62301Can you tell me, sir, what has become of a boy named Worth Manton and an old colored man whom I left here the day before yesterday?
62301Could n''t we somehow make a fire with a gun? 62301 Did n''t I, really?"
62301Do you see it?
62301Do you suppose any other two fellows ever had such queer times on a canoe trip as we are having?
62301Do you think they can be sharks?
62301Do you, Quorum, know anything about the canoes that we came here in?
62301Do?
62301Does n''t that altar look as though the mound had been used as a place for offering sacrifices?
62301Fishing for what?
62301Hanker fur the''Glades? 62301 Have you noticed how full the air is of smoke?"
62301He die ob he own sef, an''ebberybody know hit, an''dey hain''t er huntin''ole Quor''m any mo''? 62301 How dared you give us such a fright?
62301How do you know?
62301How does that plan strike you, boys?
62301How many rattles has this fellow?
62301How yo go, den?
62301How?
62301Hunting you? 62301 I suppose you would have stolen it if you had found it?"
62301I wonder if it can be a volcano?
62301I wonder what will become of him?
62301It was a snake, was n''t it?
62301Just where does the sloop lie?
62301Look here,said Sumner, sternly, to the negro, after his excitement had somewhat subsided,"did n''t you try to steal one of our guns last night?"
62301May I introduce myself as Mr. Tracy Manton, of New York?
62301Not in them tickly li''l''cooners?
62301Oh, I would, would I? 62301 Oh, Sumner, what shall we do?"
62301Oh, sir,exclaimed Worth, as the stranger landed,"have you seen anything of Sumner Rankin?
62301Oh, we will, will we?
62301Suppose he had upset us?
62301Suppose they had struck an artery, what would you do?
62301The bucket?
62301Them Injuns has got tobacco, then?
62301Then do n''t you think we ought to be getting back towards the river?
62301Then why not come with us through the''Glades?
62301Then you did get a deer, sir, after all?
62301Then you will go with us?
62301They were Indians, then?
62301Was it a hippopotamus, do you think?
62301Was it a waterquake?
62301Was it a whale, do you think?
62301Well, then, what would you do if you were bitten?
62301What could it have been?
62301What do you propose to do?
62301What do you say, Sumner?
62301What for?
62301What has become of your gun?
62301What is it?
62301What is it?
62301What made that fellow go for us if he is n''t a fighter?
62301What would our mothers say if they could see us now, and know the fix we are in?
62301What would you have done if you had met it without a gun in your hand?
62301What yo''say?
62301Where are you bound?
62301Where are you going to find it?
62301Where did you get hold of that idea?
62301Where is your vessel?
62301Where was Quorum?
62301Where were the boats?
62301Who could have done this thing, and why was it done?
62301Who he b''long to, den?
62301Why did n''t you fire?
62301Why did n''t you fire?
62301Why for yo''a- huntin''de ole man, den?
62301Why had he fired those shots?
62301Why, my dear boy,exclaimed his mother, standing beside him and smoothing his tumbled brown curls with her cool hands,"what is the matter?
62301Will you step in and look at them?
62301Would n''t it be fine?
62301Yo''call''em notorious, eh?
62301Yo''say I hain''t hit nowheres, Marse Summer?
62301You are certain that you are right, Sumner?
62301You believe it will be safe to trust them, then?
62301You do n''t mean to say that you are navigating the ocean in that cockle- shell?
62301You do n''t mean, sir, that you propose to go into camp while the whole country is simply swarming with savage Indians?
62301You do n''t reckin they''ll hanker arter wisitin''the''Glades agin in a hurry, then?
62301You surely do n''t mean that they are good to eat?
62301You''ve got some matches, have n''t you?
62301Your gun has n''t disappeared, has it?
62301A good one?"
62301AND WHERE DID THEY COME FROM?
62301AND WHERE DID THEY COME FROM?
62301After all we have gone through with together, and after all the anxiety we have had on account of each other?
62301After laying the sofkee spoon down, he turned to the Indian who had already spoken to him, and said:"Why fo''yo''call me Quor''m?
62301And again turning to the subject under consideration, he asked,"Would you be willing to help us cut out some for our canoes after your models?"
62301And how did you get there?
62301And how did you know that we were here?"
62301And why should they?
62301As Worth became aware of Sumner''s presence, he turned with a white, frightened face, exclaiming:"Oh, Sumner, what shall I do?
62301At the same time Sumner was saying to Worth,"I wonder who that fellow is?
62301Besides, did the way ahead of them present any greater difficulties than that they had so recently traversed?
62301Bring a boat over here, ca n''t ye?"
62301But how did you happen to leave Quorum?
62301But what has become of your own boat?"
62301But what information was he gaining concerning the Everglades, their resources, and present population?
62301But what is it that smells so good?"
62301But you will be careful, and not run into any more such dreadful perils, wo n''t you, dear?"
62301But, Quorum, what on earth are you throwing all that iron into the fire for?
62301By- the- way, Quorum, were our canoes here when you landed?"
62301Ca n''t I enlist you in Uncle Sam''s service for a week or so?"
62301Ca n''t we get away somehow-- can''t we?
62301Ca n''t we take the canoes now and sail over there?"
62301Can it be that you are the person they are seeking?"
62301Could he ever reach it through those tumultuous seas?
62301Could he obtain any more?
62301Could they hope to reach Key West in them?
62301Could this be she?
62301Did you ever see anything so absurd as Quorum?
62301Did you hear that?"
62301Do n''t you want to invite me to dine with you?"
62301Do you think it is absolutely necessary?"
62301Even if this first attack had only been intended for a scare, would a second prove equally harmless?
62301For answer the Indian only said,"Tobac, you got um, Quor''m?"
62301Had not Rust Norris given the Indians false information concerning the objects of the expedition, and roused them to anger against it?
62301Had there ever been one half so good before?
62301Have you an extra paddle with you?"
62301Have you got one?"
62301Have you had plenty to eat since you came here?"
62301How did he get back?
62301How did you get here, and what became of the raft?
62301How do you happen to be at anchor here, and what were you whistling for?"
62301How do you think that would go?"
62301How much longer would his strength hold out?
62301How on earth do you remember it all?"
62301I can not remember seeing a bullet strike the water or anywhere else; can you?"
62301I mean of a boy on a raft?"
62301I think you said he was a good one, Sumner?"
62301I wonder how hungry we''ll get before we make up our minds to eat raw duck?
62301Is n''t it the top of the flood now?"
62301It has been a decidedly unique and remarkable one, though-- has it not?
62301It seems that we all want something that we have n''t got, and are n''t likely to get in this world, does n''t it?
62301It will be a queer experience to tell about when you get back to New York, wo n''t it?"
62301Let me take her a few minutes, will yer?"
62301Now I wonder if he does n''t know something about our canoes?"
62301Now do you suppose we can persuade your old darkey to go along as cook?
62301Oh, what shall I do?"
62301Supposing his raft should strand on the reef, what chance was there of its holding together until daylight, or even for a few minutes?
62301The note of a steam- whistle?
62301The only unanswered questions are, Whom do they belong to, and how did they get here?"
62301Then I sat up and called out,''Who''s there?''
62301This time he was heard, and an answering hail came from the deck high above him,"Who is it, and where are you?"
62301Tobac?
62301Very well; could he lose it in a better cause?
62301WHOSE ARE THEY?
62301WHOSE ARE THEY?
62301Was there ever such a chance to do the very thing he most longed to do offered a boy before?
62301Wha''yo''mean by playin''sich tricks on him, an''on de white mans wha''trabblin''in he comp''ny?"
62301Wha''yo''say dere''bout niggahs, yo''sailorman?"
62301What can have become of him?
62301What can possibly have become of our canoes, anyway?"
62301What can they want with us, I wonder?
62301What could Worth and Quorum be about?
62301What could they do with their frail boats, even if they should return to the open waters of the Gulf?
62301What did you say their names were?"
62301What do you mean by frightening us so?
62301What do you say?
62301What put such an idea into your head?"
62301What schooner is that?"
62301What shall I do?
62301What sort of a cook?
62301What was she doing there, apparently at anchor?
62301What was that?
62301What would his father have done under similar circumstances?
62301Where are your Indian friends?"
62301Where do you suppose they can have gone to, sir?"
62301Where had he been?
62301Where have you been?"
62301Where were the boats?
62301Where_ are_ the canoes and the cruisers?"
62301Which way were they to fly?
62301Who else occupied that country, or who else would have done such a thing?
62301Why did n''t I think of it before?
62301Why fo''yo''treat a''spectable colored gen''l''man dish yer way, anyhow?
62301Why had he not been content to stay with them, and await patiently the relief that must come to them sooner or later?
62301Why yo''no gib one plug ob terbakker fur dat''possum, eh?
62301Why?
62301Will you come over after a while, or shall I go aboard the sloop?
62301Will you do it?"
62301Would n''t you, mother dear?"
62301Yo''like''possum when he roasted, Marse Summer?"
62301You are certain that this is the last of the ebb?"
62301You hongry?
62301and what was he doing when you left him?"
62301and where had he come from?
62301asked the negro, doubtfully;"an''not eben hurted?"
62301exclaimed Worth, in a grieved tone,"are n''t you ever going to care particularly for me, because we have never been enemies?"
62301he said, when she had answered his question in the affirmative;"and my nephew, Master Worth Manton?
21888Ai n''t that kerect, Bowser?
21888And a green and white canoe called the Imp?
21888And what happened to us, Ned? 21888 And what then?"
21888Anything wrong?
21888Are our friends safe?
21888Are there?
21888Are we near the rear end?
21888Are you hurt any, old fellow?
21888Are you hurt, Ned?
21888Are you hurt, old fellow?
21888Are you in dead earnest, Nugget?
21888Are_ you_ awake?
21888Break the door open?
21888But has the place never been sounded?
21888But how do you expect to get in without being seen?
21888But suppose we explain to him that it was all a mistake, and offer to pay the damages,continued Randy,"would n''t that satisfy him?"
21888But what danger are you afraid of now?
21888But where have you been all day?
21888But who are these men, Batters, and what do you know about them?
21888But wo n''t it be dangerous?
21888Ca n''t we stop and have lunch?
21888Can I assist in any way?
21888Can you hold out for a moment or two?
21888Could they have passed down the creek while we were drying ourselves?
21888Did n''t I tell you not to shoot?
21888Did the flood do all that damage?
21888Did they escape the flood?
21888Did you just come up the creek?
21888Discover anything?
21888Do n''t you know that we may be invited out to dinner at West Hill? 21888 Do n''t you remember anything about this affair?"
21888Do n''t you think so, Ned?
21888Do n''t you think so?
21888Do you fellows expect to reach the river in them flimsy things?
21888Do you know, we almost forgot about our mail arrangements? 21888 Do you really think the dam will break?"
21888Do you think these are the same men that the farmer chased off his land?
21888Do you want us to stay cooped up here for a week, and lose everything we have? 21888 Has it anything to do with that piece of tomfoolery?"
21888Has it occurred to any of you fellows that we are drawing near home?
21888Have you any matches?
21888Have you never tried it yourself?
21888How did you lose yours?
21888How far down were you? 21888 How far is Otter Run from here in a straight line?"
21888Hullo, Randy, what have you there?
21888I wonder how long we have been moving parallel with the creek instead of toward it? 21888 If our friends went over the dam this morning,"asked Clay with a touch of scorn, pointing to the canoes and the tent,"how do these come to be here?"
21888In this pitch darkness?
21888Is it all right, Zinn?
21888Is it all right?
21888Is there any way of escape from the other side?
21888Is there no hope?
21888It''s a purty one, is n''t it?
21888Look here,cried Randy,"what do you mean by letting a vicious animal like that run loose?
21888Monday?
21888Moxley is the fellow''s name, is it?
21888Must we stay in this awful place until we die? 21888 Ned, will you go with me?"
21888Or were you just admiring my beauty? 21888 Say Ned, is that you?"
21888Say, you''d like to see us licked, would n''t you?
21888See here, Ned, is n''t it likely that Nugget caught hold of the canoe when it upset, and clung to it? 21888 Then must we go back the way we came?"
21888Then what could it have been?
21888Then you think that Nugget is-- is drowned?
21888Was it hot?
21888We will surely find a way to escape, Ned?
21888What are we going to do about Ned and Clay?
21888What are we going to do?
21888What are you doing here, you young rascal?
21888What are you going to do?
21888What are you laughing at?
21888What awful place are we in, Ned? 21888 What can we do now?"
21888What do you mean by trespassin''here, you impudent young rascals?
21888What do you think of that?
21888What do you want with it?
21888What has become of the boys then?
21888What have you there?
21888What is it?
21888What is it?
21888What is that?
21888What kept you so long?
21888What luck are the boys having?
21888What luck?
21888What luck?
21888What under the sun does this mean?
21888What would be the use?
21888What''s wrong?
21888What''s wrong?
21888When did this happen?
21888When will we reach the end of the creek?
21888Where am I?
21888Where did you come from, old fellow? 21888 Where did you fellows spend the night?"
21888Where did_ you_ spend it?
21888Where is it?
21888Where shall I have it sent?
21888Who are you, and who is this man that you are warning us about? 21888 Who put me out here in the rain?
21888Why did n''t you come up the creek and warn us?
21888Why did you do that?
21888Why do n''t you ask me if I''m hurt?
21888Why do n''t you dive after it?
21888Why-- why-- how did you know there were two more?
21888Wo n''t we have a feast?
21888Wo n''t you let him go?
21888Wo n''t you let us go and look for our companions now?
21888You are Bug Batters?
21888You do n''t mean it?
21888You do n''t think the camp is that far away?
21888You say your uncle is cross about the calf?
21888You think they are safe then?
21888You will, will you?
21888You''ll know what it is in good time,he replied, and then turning to Ned he asked:"Can I have one of the tent poles?"
21888A burst of laughter came from shore, and Daddy Perkiss cried triumphantly:"Where''s the gun, lad?
21888And now do you see what I am driving at?
21888And where are Clay and Randy?"
21888Are you sure one of the boys went through?"
21888Batters, suppose you and Joe come in our tent?
21888But how did you manage to get here with this heavy load?"
21888But if all the water runs out, wo n''t we have to leave our canoes behind?"
21888But what do you think?"
21888But what had we better do now?"
21888But what has become of Bug Batters now?
21888But where are the other fellows?"
21888But why are you so anxious to get home, Nugget?"
21888Did n''t the current drag us into a hole in the cliff?"
21888Did you ever do such a thing before, Nugget?"
21888Did you fellows never hear of Rudy''s Hole?
21888Did you find anything?"
21888Did you find bottom?"
21888Did you see any signs of a farmhouse when you were up the stream, Clay?"
21888Do you think it is still afloat?"
21888Do you think it''s necessary now to go farther down the creek?"
21888Do you think we will have to go all the way back-- to the place we entered by, I mean?"
21888Get it for me, Nugget, will you?
21888Had some undercurrent dragged him far down in those blue depths?
21888Help me up with my canoe now, will you?"
21888His companions did the same, and Randy asked wearily:"What are you going to do here?"
21888How are we fixed for provisions?"
21888How else could the disappearance of the boys be accounted for?
21888How is it, my man?"
21888Is it possible that you lads came down to my cabin and stole the gun and the boat?
21888Is it you?"
21888Is that the last match?"
21888Is the cavern very long?"
21888It would be simple folly and madness for the others to trust themselves near the rapacious current; yet how else could help reach the imperiled lad?
21888Say, would n''t I look nice marching down Fifth Avenue in this rig?"
21888Still in the right location, are we?"
21888Suddenly changing his voice he demanded gruffly,"Where are the other two chaps?"
21888The Susquehanna or the Conodoguinet?"
21888Then turning quickly to his companions he demanded:"How long is this line?"
21888There are no obstructions in the way, are there?"
21888This was undoubtedly the termination of the cavern, but where was the outlet?
21888Wait for Moxley to go to sleep again, or try to capture him with this empty gun?"
21888Was Mr. Dude Moxley''s brain muddled that he should have inserted such a gross error in his otherwise plausible little story?
21888Were the boys sleeping so soundly that the signal could not rouse them?
21888What do you say, Ned?
21888What do you think we had better do?
21888What put the notion into your head, Randy?"
21888What was the matter?
21888What was the meaning of such an idiotic performance?
21888What word of comfort could he give his companion?
21888When he came opposite the boys Ned called out:"Say, tell me who that stout gentleman is, will you?"
21888Where are the other two chaps that belong to your party?"
21888Where are the rest of your party?"
21888Which is it to be?
21888Which of his companions had been carried through the break, and where was the unfortunate lad now?
21888Who in the world was Bug, and why should Batters be so anxious about him?
21888Who will go with me?"
21888Why do n''t you dive after it?"
21888Why should we be afraid of him?"
21888Will you do it, Bug?
21888Will you forgive me, old fellow?
21888Will you go straight home and lead an honest, respectable life?"
21888Wo n''t the other boys be envious when they see how sunburnt we are, and hear all about the exciting adventures we have had?"
21888Would it be wise to give him any-- to excite hopes that might never be realized?
21888You heard what the man said, did n''t you?
21888You see I went down to the creek at daybreak to look for a stray cow, and when--""Did you find a boy called Nugget?"
21888asked Ned,"or only a little stunned?"
21888cackled Daddy Perkiss, as he tremblingly sat down on a drift log,"the lad wants to dive in Rudy''s Hole, does he?
21888cackled Daddy Perkiss;"is the lad tired of livin'', or kin he breathe under water like a fish?"
21888do something quick, wo n''t you?"
21888he shouted eagerly,"can you do anything with this outline?
21888you have, have you?"
26345''Brother,''called Raven to the bird,''how came you here?'' 26345 ''But, Brother, how do I know there is such a daughter?
26345''I? 26345 ''I?
26345All right-- what do you want us to say to the boys?
26345And makes them a luxury, eh?
26345And what sort of scout do you lock up in here?
26345And where shall we camp?
26345Are n''t the girls going to sit down, too?
26345Are n''t they big?
26345Are n''t you?
26345Are they, Gilly?
26345Are you Mike, the Indian?
26345Are you going to carry that little bag of flour?
26345Are you''fraid to trust us?
26345Be you- all out fer a lark?
26345But how can we_ get_ an impact? 26345 But it was hard work to keep straight faces, was n''t it, girls?"
26345But what could possibly happen when we had Jim and Verny at the wheels?
26345But what? 26345 But what?
26345But why should we bother with such stuff?
26345But, at least, tell us what happened to those Nerieds?
26345Could n''t we find some other affectionate term that will do without impressing strangers with our lack of courtesy to our friend?
26345Did n''t you cut them up and use them just now?
26345Did you bring a compass?
26345Did you find out what you went for?
26345Did you find the mushrooms along the way?
26345Do any of you girls understand weather- lore?
26345Do n''t you know the story, Verny?
26345Do you need any assistance?
26345Do you remember I told you, last summer, of some Boy Scouts who camped in my woods every year? 26345 Do you sell gasoline?"
26345Do you think that is it, Gilly?
26345First, then: Did Hiram miss any calves or pigs or other domestic animals from his barnyard yesterday?
26345Girls, suppose we stop and cook the steaks?
26345Got money now to pay?
26345Had anything to eat?
26345Had n''t we better study the book first, scouts, and let Gilly know when we are ready to go tracking?
26345Had we better separate and go in different directions to hunt the camp?
26345Has any one thought of a stopping place for the night?
26345Have you formulated any plan to begin with?
26345How about lunch-- we''re famished?
26345How about that chicken? 26345 How big was it, Julie?"
26345How can we answer them?
26345How can we cross? 26345 How did bunny stand the voyage?"
26345How did you know you could make a broom like this?
26345How do I know? 26345 How do we know we can find any willows around here?"
26345How long is it to anywhere?
26345How many of you brought the plaster and bottle of water?
26345How much do we owe you for this great service?
26345How much shall we need, Gilly?
26345How much time will we save?
26345How much you rent canoe for?
26345How would a fine juicy steak taste about this time?
26345How''d you know we were scouts?
26345I came over to ask how many of you have been fishing? 26345 I love peanuts, do n''t you?"
26345I think Joan''s idea of visiting the Indian a good one, girls; why not go there instead of to either of the other places?
26345I told you you''ve got an awful memory-- didn''t I want to dub you''The man- with- a- poor- memory?''
26345If''Liza knew of this mischance, would n''t she gloat over her''Friday Bad Luck''prophecy?
26345Is Mr. Gilroy coming over to visit us to- day?
26345Is dinner ready, boys, or will there be time to show the girls about the camp?
26345Is it alive, Jule?
26345Is it like that all over there, Julie?
26345Is it? 26345 Is n''t he a beaut?"
26345Is n''t that a pig-- in that pen?
26345Is n''t there a reward for skunks in the country?
26345Is n''t there any volunteer fire department?
26345Is n''t there some sort of book that will teach us how to recognize tracks, girls?
26345Is there any other animal that wears hoofs?
26345Is there no way we might take to return to Fulton Chain Lakes other than going back the same route?
26345Is there, Verny? 26345 Joan, are you awake?"
26345Just what can you make, or have done, that we girls are not able to do?
26345Maybe it is a reindeer?
26345Me Mike-- wan''da canoe?
26345Now they can win a badge for story- telling, ca n''t they, Verny?
26345Now who''d a thought we could get gas in this little shop?
26345Oh, are you Jake?
26345Oh, did n''t you? 26345 Oh, does she know about it?"
26345Say, could n''t you tell us where there is a nice picnic place near here?
26345Say, where did you put that bait, anyway, Gilly?
26345See anything at all, Dick?
26345See those long shadows by the trees, over there?
26345Shall we let it go now?
26345Shall we stop to put on the rain- curtains?
26345Shall we take a vote on it?
26345Shall we try to circle this fen and get across, or go back again?
26345Speaking of quills, Gilly-- why ca n''t we have chickens as the Grey Fox boys have?
26345Suppose we take a bite as we travel along, and cook a regular dinner when we are out in the country somewhere?
26345Sure-- why?
26345Tell us about it?
26345Tell us why you asked?
26345That''s your steak-- think it is too big for one?
26345The cove? 26345 The names of them, yes, but how many of you can find them as they are placed in the sky?"
26345The what?
26345Then why not say it is dinner- time, Verny?
26345Then, if this is so, why need we worry about expenses for next summer''s outing with you?
26345There are nine of us-- how about the odd one?
26345Think you can do it?
26345This will make a dandy story to write down in our record book, Verny, wo n''t it?
26345Verny, do you know of any places one might choose for an objective on a hike?
26345Verny, why ca n''t we see all the stars all the year?
26345Verny, why not make a quick shelter to crawl under?
26345Was n''t it too funny for anything,--the way we led Gilly about by the nose?
26345Was that thunder I heard from over the mountain?
26345Well, I ca n''t see, yet, why you should?
26345Well, does this creature show any unusual tendencies, girls, by which you can recognize it?
26345Well, guess you girls are planning to spread yourselves for dinner, eh?
26345Well, then, it seems that all the baggage and outfit we need with us on the trip is safely stowed away, eh, Jim?
26345Well, this is some trophy to carry back home, eh?
26345Well, what do you think of him, scouts? 26345 Well, what now?
26345Well, why not make a little cast of both the tracks you do not recognize and then compare them with those in the book when we go back to camp?
26345What are they for?
26345What can girls do?
26345What can we do about our pets?
26345What can you expect to do with two such pets?
26345What did it look like? 26345 What did you cook for luncheon?"
26345What difference would that make-- a little cheap soup? 26345 What do they give scouts a medal for, Verny?"
26345What do you ask?
26345What do you expect the Orderly to do, Verny?
26345What do you mean by that?
26345What do you mean? 26345 What do you mean?"
26345What do you think happened to us?
26345What duck- potatoes? 26345 What have you plotted, now?"
26345What is it?
26345What kind of a dog is he, Gilly?
26345What makes you think so, Julie?
26345What now?
26345What shall we do with him? 26345 What shall we do?
26345What shall we do? 26345 What was it in that salad dressing that gave such a palatable flavor?
26345What will''two smokes''mean?
26345What will_ you_ be doing, meantime?
26345What would you do if they got the gapes, and no one would feed them chopped onions?
26345What''s that?
26345What''s the matter with bear steaks, while we''re about it? 26345 What, what?"
26345When did you plan to start?
26345Where does it end?
26345Where have you been, Julie?
26345Where is it?
26345Where''s that rope, Jo?
26345Where''s the rope you''ve been using, girls?
26345Where-- which way did you hear them?
26345Where? 26345 Which is the route you''d chose, Verny?"
26345Who can find The Lady in the Chair or The Guards?
26345Who wants to go with me to find the wooden animal that grows a steak ready- made?
26345Who will buy their corn?
26345Who will tell one?
26345Who''s Orderly for the Day? 26345 Who''s doing the Indian cucumbers?"
26345Why did n''t you use what scout- sense you had? 26345 Why do you object to''Gilly?''"
26345Why not all fish and the sooner catch what is needed?
26345Why not finish the job, now that we''re on top?
26345Why not stop work and cook a few steaks?
26345Why not take a little flour and fat and catch some fish at noon, and sup while on the trail?
26345Why not there? 26345 Why should I hoax any one?
26345Why, where did you find them?
26345Why-- are you hungry?
26345Why? 26345 Will you serve it, Jo-- you are nearest the pan?"
26345Without a clue to any wild animal we tracked?
26345Would you prefer to sit here and dream, Betty-- or go back with me and eat ham sandwiches?
26345Yhon, I suppose you mean those on the route to Forked Lake, through Raquette River to Long Lake, eh?
26345You do n''t suppose the girls are in earnest about keeping the pig and calf at camp, do you?
26345You do, so why not tell us?
26345You gals just sit still, will you?
26345You seem to welcome the idea of camping in the Rockies?
26345You tak him along?
26345You''re always right-- how could you_ ever_ be mistaken?
26345Your idea is all right, Verny, but what will the rules cover, and why have punishments?
26345''Knowest thou not why I came to be born of the Light?
26345*****_ THIS ISN''T ALL!_ Would you like to know what became of the good friends you have made in this book?
26345And if there be, how shall I receive the Light through her?''
26345And what did you catch?"
26345And where will you go, Captain?"
26345Are n''t you going to stay here next summer?"
26345At this Mr. Gilroy called out,"You''re not going to eat my chicken, are you?"
26345Both the Captain and Mr. Gilroy laughed, but the scouts gasped in unbelief,"Would Gilly do such a thing?"
26345Both the rails were completely worm- eaten, but how should girls have known that?
26345Breakfast will be all ready by the time you return, so do n''t dawdle on the way, will you?"
26345But did n''t you boys know about the joke we made up on him about those tracks?
26345But how could a baby get in that jungle?"
26345But how did you manage to get them there-- by paddling in from the lake?"
26345CHAPTER EIGHT JAKE''S INTERVIEW WITH A SKUNK"Gilly, do you know of any vegetable dye we can find in the woods to dye some burlap for decorations?"
26345CHAPTER THIRTEEN SHOOTING THE RAPIDS-- AND OTHER THINGS"Well,''where do we go from here, boys?''"
26345Can you find any difference?"
26345Cook we must, but what?"
26345Did any of us think water was dry?"
26345Did any one hear the twelve o''clock whistle blow?"
26345Did n''t Mr. Gilroy tell you that?"
26345Did n''t you and Pa''s chauffeur overhaul both the cars thoroughly when you knew we were going on this trip?"
26345Did n''t you scouts go out at dawn with Gilly to study tracks?"
26345Did you bring a rifle, Dick?"
26345Did you think they came preserved?"
26345Do n''t you know we have to keep the peace all summer?"
26345Do n''t you like my camp- ground?"
26345Do they know much about tracks?"
26345Do you know?"
26345Do you suppose there can be any gypsies here?"
26345Do you suppose they made them in camp?
26345Do you think they will do their tricks for company?"
26345During the luncheon the Captain said:"Would n''t it be splendid if each one of us kept a diary of what happens during this summer''s camp?
26345Every eye glanced at Mr. Gilroy, and he laughingly replied,"Why do you all seem to think I am that animal?"
26345Finally, when Mrs. Vernon could be heard, she asked,"Where are they-- far from Raquette Lake?"
26345Gilroy?"
26345Gilroy?"
26345Gilroy?"
26345His signal means''Where are you?''
26345How came you here-- and where were you born?''
26345How did that track- hunt come off?
26345How did you make it?"
26345How does it strike you?"
26345How is that?"
26345How much you give for rent canoe?"
26345How''d you like it?"
26345I do n''t suppose you know a thing about it, do you?"
26345I hope the little thing is n''t past aid?"
26345I suppose you scouts knew every animal, eh?"
26345If we had not found the fires you left, what might have resulted to this area of mountain land?"
26345Is he homely enough to win your pity?
26345Is n''t it an honor to be the Orderly?"
26345Is n''t that fine?
26345Is there anything here to prove we are such ignoramuses as to believe a calf- track could possibly be a deer- print?"
26345Let up on us now, and wait until_ you_ are lost, will you?"
26345Made a lot of work, did n''t it?"
26345Meantime the lady returned to the door and called out,"Wo n''t you please step this way?"
26345One day he helped an old lame man along the path and, for gratitude, the old man said:''You seek the One of Nass who keeps the Light?''
26345Remember the''Boulder''we all saw, and when it moved we had a panic?
26345See that inky cloud scudding across there?"
26345See that scout up on the roof with Mrs. Dickens''mother?"
26345Shall we keep on hunting for the way back from this clearing, or just sit and let them find us?"
26345Shall we try it?"
26345Shall we try that trail?"
26345So Mrs. Vernon asked,"Where is Prospect Junction?"
26345So he asked:"Where did you set any snares?
26345Suppose the man is cruel to them?"
26345The boys stared in surprise for a moment, then Dick said,"What do you mean?
26345Then every one turned to every one else, and word ran round:"Who''s got any money?"
26345Then just back of them came the sound of horses''hoofs and a kindly voice called out,"Well, well, this is some plight you- all are in, eh?"
26345Then quickly added,"Oh, Captain, where are the Brussels sprouts?
26345This business disposed of, Julie said:"Now what shall we do to- day, girls?"
26345What shall I do?"
26345What shall we do with two of them on hand?"
26345What shall we do?"
26345What you take?"
26345When did you manage to steal that?"
26345Where did you come from?"
26345Where''s the Indian cook?"
26345Which way did it go?"
26345Why should we go to all this fuss for nothing?"
26345Why?"
26345Will you come to- morrow morning?"
26345Will yuh come to arth, yuh rascal?"
26345Would n''t you boys like to examine it closely?"
26345Would one do that?"
26345Would you like to read other stories continuing their adventures and experiences, or other books quite as entertaining by the same author?
26345[ Illustration:"Where-- which way did you hear them?"
26345questioned Joan 211 GIRL SCOUTS IN THE ADIRONDACKS CHAPTER ONE THE FRIDAY JINX"Are we ready to start, girls?"
26345surely you would n''t have these mere males_ think_ we were such gullible scouts, would you?
26345was I right when I told you not to limit your supply to any old- fashioned mill- pond?"
26345what did you do that for?
26345where did they get the chickens?"
30840''The lone pirate''?
30840All ready?
30840And do n''t you believe Billy is over there on the island?
30840And how do you suppose he''d done it?
30840And how under the sun did you chance to have that Hallow E''en disguise with you, Billy boy?
30840And how would you get back?
30840And it has n''t?
30840And suppose the''lone pirate''should be hiding in there?
30840And that man is gone, so who is to know the truth?
30840And the caves?
30840And they were not the fellows I saw afterward----"After what, Billy?
30840And what could be their object?
30840And what is that?
30840And what''s a canoe?
30840And who''s so spiteful toward the Central High eight?
30840And who''s to teach_ me_ how to talk?
30840And you do n''t want to say what is n''t so, either, eh?
30840And you mean to say you picked it up in the cavern?
30840And-- and you-- you''ve nev-- never smoked even_ one_?
30840Another monkey?
30840Are you afraid of meeting the pirate, girls?
30840Are you sure of that?
30840As long as papa does n''t wish us to go----?
30840At Stresch& Potter''s department store?
30840But Mrs. Betsey does her very best----"And what does_ she_ know?
30840But do you suppose I can pass?
30840But what did Tommy do?
30840But where can Billy be?
30840But who would have done such a thing?
30840But why did n''t I guess it before and save myself all that trouble I had?
30840But, do you suppose he sank the boat here to hide it-- sank it purposely?
30840But,as Laura quoted,"can the leopard change his spots?"
30840Ca n''t one of you make the biscuit, without the other?
30840Ca n''t you keep your eyes off Purt, Bobby?
30840Did Purt buy a_ thousand_?
30840Did n''t you think he was hiding somewhere on Cavern Island?
30840Did you ever see anything so funny?
30840Did you ever? 30840 Did you see it?
30840Did you see that?
30840Did you think that nobody but_ you_ appreciates a good sister? 30840 Do n''t I know that?
30840Do n''t we see that?
30840Do n''t you fret, Miss-- which is it, Dora, or Dorothy?
30840Do n''t you think so, Chet?
30840Do you hear that, Lance?
30840Do you hear?
30840Do you mean to tell me that you scorn my offer?
30840Do you suppose it will kill him? 30840 Do you suppose the police would accept Tommy''s testimony?"
30840Does she ever read papers upon the proper management of girls? 30840 Does that mean you are satisfied to remain here, Dora?"
30840Eh?
30840Gone where?
30840Got enough, have n''t you, Pretty?
30840Has he been_ very_ bad?
30840Have n''t you heard of the robbery?
30840Have you any more of those nasty cigarettes with you?
30840He had escaped?
30840Here is what?
30840How did he get off?
30840How do I know whether there is money in it or not?
30840How do you know?
30840How do you suppose he ever got there?
30840How is Billy to disprove the accusation if he runs away and makes it appear that he is guilty?
30840How much ground do you want-- the whole earth?
30840How we going to cut it open?
30840How would he live over there?
30840How you going to send the money, Laura?
30840How''s that?
30840I do n''t know whether the lone pirate is one of them or not,laughed Dora;"but_ somebody_ must have committed the robbery-- and why not he?"
30840I suppose you know them apart?
30840I thought you were going to see the game between Lumberport and the East High team?
30840I weally will have to remove my waistcoat-- if you will allow me?
30840If Gee Gee heard you say that, Miss----Ahem!--was it Dora or Dorothy?
30840In what?
30840Is it_ their_ place to have their way in such affairs? 30840 Is n''t he a scamp?"
30840Is n''t he a vision of loveliness?
30840Is n''t that mean?
30840Is n''t this the Jim- dandiest lay- out you ever saw, Chet?
30840Is that the best they can do without you girls to help them?
30840Is that where the treasure is buried?
30840Is there some deep sea monster down there?
30840Is_ that_ a proper thing for young girls to ride in? 30840 It''s time to have the luncheon-- don''t you think?
30840Keyport?
30840Missing: The Short and Long of It, eh?
30840Nor Dorothy either?
30840Now, Purt, how many cigarettes have you left at home?
30840Now, who''s for seeing the caves?
30840Oh, who would be so mean?
30840Otherwise, what has happened to him?
30840Put him through the third degree, did he?
30840Say, old man,Lance asked his chum,"what were you searching that chamber in the cavern for?
30840See where?
30840So Dorothy usually sifts the flour, does she?
30840So if you called one of them to the desk you could not be sure that the one you called really came?
30840So you only smoked one of them to- day?
30840So you two boys had no idea what was in that lard can you brought in here the other day?
30840Sounds just like Poe, does n''t it?
30840Suppose he_ has_ got the matches?
30840Sure you can make it all right? 30840 Surely, the poor fellow is n''t drowned?"
30840Take Dora?
30840That wig and whiskers I had last Hallow E''en; do n''t you remember? 30840 That''s the monkey that put the''tang''in''tango''--eh, what?"
30840The lard can with the money?
30840The lone_ what_?
30840The question is: How shall we get him up?
30840Then what does she know about it?
30840Then you know them apart?
30840Then-- what time does your rural delivery man go by the end of the road?
30840They have n''t caught him?
30840Think it?
30840Was it Dora-- or Dorothy?
30840We''re going right to Boulder Head, are n''t we?
30840Well, is n''t that as it should be? 30840 Well, who were they?"
30840Wha-- wha-- what''s the matter with me?
30840What about him?
30840What about their souls, Lemuel Lockwood? 30840 What are clothes, anyway?
30840What are you talking about?
30840What did you see, Clara?
30840What do you expect to find here, old man?
30840What do you expect will come of_ that_?
30840What do you mean by that?
30840What do you mean?
30840What do you suppose is the matter with all these people?
30840What fellow would n''t be? 30840 What has he done now?"
30840What have you found, girls?
30840What have you got in here-- a lion?
30840What if Stresch& Potter were robbed of ten thousand dollars? 30840 What is it?"
30840What is the matter with that girl of Tom Hargrew''s?
30840What man?
30840What now, Clara?
30840What now, Clara?
30840What now?
30840What really is the cause of the crow''s caws?
30840What shall we do about the shell? 30840 What shell?"
30840What sort of a looking man, Miss Lockwood?
30840What were you two boys doing out in the_ Duchess_ this afternoon, anyway?
30840What would_ you_ have done?
30840What you found?
30840What''s bit you now?
30840What''s he done?
30840What''s the matter with him?
30840What''s the matter with you, Billy?
30840What''s the matter with you, Purt?
30840What''s the matter with you, then?
30840What''s the matter with you-- er-- Sister?
30840What''s the matter with you?
30840What- what will his mo- mo- mother say when he gets home?
30840What?
30840What_ do_ they need, Dora?
30840Whatever should we do without her?
30840When did this happen?
30840Where is she?
30840Which is which, Dora?
30840Which of you is hurt?
30840Which of''em went for it?
30840Which one was it? 30840 Who would n''t be?"
30840Who''d have thought of_ that_ way to send coin in the mail?
30840Who''s afraid?
30840Who''s burned?
30840Who''s launch is that, Dory?
30840Who''s that?
30840Why could n''t you? 30840 Why did you say you did?"
30840Why do n''t you get to it?
30840Why not?
30840Why,said Chet, hesitating, looking at Lance,"if we tell you, you''ll keep still about it-- all you girls?"
30840Why-- why----Isn''t that Pretty Sweet''s_ Duchess_?
30840Wo n''t we get lost?
30840Would n''t it?
30840Yes, sir?
30840You do n''t believe any of the other girls have stolen the shell?
30840You do n''t mean it?
30840You do n''t mean to say that the new shell has been taken out of the boathouse-- and a watchman there?
30840You do n''t want to lose Dora, do you, dear?
30840You know something about birds, do n''t you?
30840You know what Hester is doing now?
30840You know what that new hired girl of ours said when mother showed her how to cook macaroni? 30840 You know, do you?"
30840You one o''dem fresh boys, eh? 30840 You said you thought those men surveying back of Stresch& Potter''s the day before the burglary, were working for the railroad?"
30840You think I''m rather harsh with the little plague? 30840 You''re not baking the half dollar?"
30840You''ve got it all fixed, have n''t you? 30840 You''ve got the fifty cents, have n''t you?"
30840Your canoe ran the other one down, did n''t it?
30840Ai n''t they?"
30840All right?"
30840Am I not right?"
30840And do n''t I know who is suspected, too?"
30840And in the night, too?"
30840And what do you think?"
30840Are they prepared to take the helm of affairs and show Man how Woman can guide affairs of moment?"
30840Are you preparing them for their work in life?
30840Are you ready?"
30840At once she said to her sister:"Are you afraid of the wolf at the door?"
30840But now he stood and stared in perfect amazement at his sister, demanding:"Do you mean to tell me you have noticed such characteristics in Dora?"
30840But the twins sometimes changed seats-- and who was to know the difference?
30840But what about after- hour athletics?

30840Can we get a new one----""Who''ll buy it for us?"
30840Chetwood?"
30840Could n''t she really tell the twins apart?
30840Do you suppose he is our lone pirate?"
30840Do you understand this fully?"
30840Does n''t it?"
30840Does n''t that prove that Billy was not out of the house on the night of the burglary?
30840For, you see, when a girl is disloyal to her school and classmates, how can they help suspecting her if evil should arise?
30840Had n''t one child a scar that the other did not have?
30840Have you done aught to make them stern and uncompromising when they meet the world on an equal footing-- as all women shall in the time to come?
30840He do n''t lik- a da silly treek-- eh?
30840How can a mere man bring up twin girls and give them a proper start in life?"
30840How do you suppose papa came to have such a sister?"
30840How many of the horrid things have you left at home?"
30840I think they have been punished enough, do n''t you?
30840I''ll never believe it----""Not even if Billy said so himself, dear boy?"
30840I''m getting howwibly hungry, dontcher know?"
30840If they race us, what''s the odds?"
30840In_ this_ state?"
30840Is n''t it cold, after coming out of the warm sun?"
30840Is n''t that a mean trick, now?"
30840Is n''t that fine?"
30840Is n''t that the way you feel?"
30840Is she making Mary clean the room all over again?"
30840Is the oven hot?"
30840It''s some muddy down there, I guess; but I can stay under water nearly two minutes-- can''t I, Chet?"
30840Norman?"
30840Now what next?"
30840Now, what do you think of that?"
30840Or books upon the growth and development of the girlish mind?"
30840Or magazine articles upon what a young girl should be taught by her parents?
30840Sha''n''t we cut Purt right off of our calling lists if he does n''t give up monogrammed cigarettes?"
30840She says:"''Sure, Mrs. Hargrew, do youse be atein''them things?''
30840Suppose they found Short and Long?"
30840Sweet?"
30840Sworn to secrecy, young man?"
30840The girls heard the automobile owner ask the driver:"How do you feel now, Bennie?
30840They are not so, but they are n''t pleasant to dream, are they?"
30840This was all Billy''s story; but when the twins got out of the house, Dorothy demanded of her sister:"What did you pinch me for?
30840To hide?"
30840Was n''t there something in their voices dissimilar?
30840Was there not some mark on their bodies by which Dora could be distinguished from Dorothy?
30840We are all agreed on that?"
30840What about the development of their minds?
30840What can it be?"
30840What did you expect to find?"
30840What did you mean?"
30840What do you say, girls?
30840What do you say, girls?"
30840What ever shall we do to get home?"
30840What for?
30840What was his name?"
30840What was your question about the anemone, Nellie?"
30840What''s that got to do with Short and Long?"
30840What''s the matter?"
30840Where are they this minute, Lemuel Lockwood?"
30840Which-- which of you is t''other?"
30840Who''s taken it?"
30840Why do n''t they search the island for him?"
30840Why, whatever will we do?"
30840You understand that?"
30840_ Do_ you suppose he had anything to do with the robbery at Stresch& Potter''s department store?
30840cried Billy, eagerly,"who got through that little window and opened the door for the Italians?"
30840did you hear about Tony and his monkey?"
30840do n''t you smell sumfin burnin''?"
30840do you really think they''ll give me part of the reward?"
30840everybody had the laugh on me-- eh?"
30840exclaimed Mr. Lockwood, with a quaver in his voice,"do you really think I am not doing my duty by Dora and Dorothy?"
30840exclaimed Tony, suddenly,"you think- a da monk ca n''t do anything?
30840get me my little knit shawl, will you, child?"
30840how could they do it?
30840was that you?"
30840what is the matter with you, Billy?"
30840where did you get it?"
30840which was_ that_?"
30840you know about Billy, do n''t you?"
15348A canoe?
15348A long one?
15348A noo mountain come into action, p''raps, an''blow''d its top off?
15348A what, sir?.
15348Ai n''t it a nice place, Nigel?
15348An''is you_ quite_ easy in your mind?
15348An''whar you go to?
15348An''where would_ you_ like to sleep, Massa Spinkie?
15348And little Nelly Drew, what of her?
15348And pray who is massa?
15348And that is--?
15348And what about large game?
15348And what may you be going to do there?
15348And you never heard of a gun- boat having captured a pirate junk and----"Why do you ask, and why pause?
15348And you wo n''t tell me your master''s name?
15348Ant vat if you do_ not_ find your frond zee captain of zee steamer?
15348Ant zey can not arrife, you say, for several veeks?
15348Are the Keeling Islands far off?
15348Are there any in these parts?
15348Are things quieter?
15348Are things quieting down?
15348Are ve near to zee spote?
15348Are you engaged, Van der Kemp?
15348Are you hurt, dear-- child?
15348Are you in earnest, father?
15348Are zee raskils near?
15348Are zey dangerows?
15348Are''ee sure, lad?
15348Ay, why not?
15348But how about_ my_ skull, Moses? 15348 But how if water gets in through a leak below?"
15348But how shall we ever see to make our way down stream?
15348But how,he asked,"am I to get zere ven ve reach zee sea- coast?
15348But how-- how-- why?
15348But is it wise in you to stay if you think an explosion so likely? 15348 But is not the cargo of the said ship safe in Batavia?
15348But seriously, Moses,he continued;"what do you think I should do?
15348But should we not hear them coming a long way off?
15348But what good will writing to my father do?
15348But what if I do n''t want to take service?
15348But what if Rakata itself should become active?
15348But what of the poor little girl?
15348But why did you go to live in such a strange place, dear father?
15348But why do you call her_ poor_ Kathy? 15348 But why do you love him, Moses?"
15348But-- where?
15348Can you guess what is the matter with him?
15348Can you run aft, Winnie?
15348Can you write shorthand?
15348Could n''t we lower a boat?
15348D''you think our old harbour will be available, Moses?
15348Did n''t I say so?
15348Did they_ all_ go in one direction?
15348Did you ever, during your search,asked Nigel slowly,"visit the Cocos- Keeling Islands?"
15348Do it always rain ashes here?
15348Do it? 15348 Do you alvays sneeze like zat?"
15348Do you expect''em back soon, sir?
15348Do you feel disposed for bed?
15348Do you hear anything?
15348Do you hear?
15348Do you know what makes him so sad?
15348Do you know, Moses, what business your master is going about?
15348Do you mean that we shall sleep in the canoe?
15348Do you not remember that my mother was ill when you spent a night in our hut, and my little sister was dying? 15348 Do you see that brass thing in front of you?"
15348Do you then think there is a possibility of an outbreak at some future period?
15348Do you think it safe to venture to visit your cave?
15348Do you think the people would object to my getting up into a tree with my rifle and watching beside the grave part of the night?
15348Do you think this is an attempt to deceive us?
15348Enchoy it? 15348 Had we not better run for the nearest land?"
15348Hallo?
15348Has he, then, done you such foul wrong?
15348Has she ever spoken to_ you_?
15348Have you ever travelled in the interior of the larger islands?
15348Have you never seen or heard of your daughter since?
15348Have you not told me that this is the first time for about two hundred years that Krakatoa has broken out in active eruption?
15348Have you reason to think he would take your life if he could?
15348How comes it,he said,"that you are so much interested in me?
15348How d''ee know_ she_ will wait?
15348How did you escape?
15348How much time have you to spare?
15348How so?
15348How!--Do you get them to tow you?
15348How? 15348 I suppose the larger islands are densely wooded?"
15348I suppose you have plenty of other kinds of food besides this?
15348I suppose,he said,"that there is no fear of the Dyaks of the village being unable to beat off the pirates now that they have been warned?"
15348I''n''t it awrful?
15348If the volcano seems quieting down,said Nigel to his host,"shall you start to- morrow?"
15348If you tumbles a t''ousand feet into de water how much t''ink you will be lef to pick up?
15348Indeed? 15348 Is Baderoon the enemy whom you saw on the islet on our first night out?"
15348Is Winnie going?
15348Is he harsh, then?
15348Is he not apt to be suffocated?
15348Is he so very bitter against you?
15348Is he then so fierce?
15348Is it daylight yet?
15348Is it far?
15348Is it often as dark as this in the daytime, an''is the sun usually green?
15348Is n''t dat enuff?
15348Is n''t you a goin''to take nuffin''wid you? 15348 Is that all?"
15348Is that the lad Baso I see down there with the crew of the prau?
15348Is that what he is doing?
15348Is this then the craft in which you intend to voyage?
15348Is, then, the orang- utan so powerful and savage?
15348Is-- is-- Van der Kemp safe?
15348Look''ere now, whitey,returned Moses,"what you take me for?"
15348May I ask, sir, what sort of cargo you expect there?
15348May I venture to ask for a fuller account of the injury he did you?
15348May not the cause be presentiment?
15348Mr. Moor,said the captain somewhat excitedly, as he reached the deck of his vessel,"are all the men aboard?"
15348Need I say,continued the hermit,"that revenge burned fiercely in my breast from that day forward?
15348Nigel,said the captain, in a tone and with a look that were meant to imply intense solemnity,"have you ever spoken to her about love?"
15348Not dead?
15348Not in years,he returned;"but old,_ very_ old in experience, and-- stay, what was it that you were asking about?
15348Not widout arms?
15348Now, Moses, are you ready?
15348Now, Moses; what d''ye think of all that?
15348Now, are you ready?
15348Now, boy,said the captain when their host had gone,"what''ll''ee do?
15348Of course you have agreed?
15348Passionate?
15348Risk what? 15348 Seen who?"
15348Shall I light de lamp?
15348Shall we have a stormy night, think you?
15348Shall we manage it, Moses?
15348Strong?
15348Surely you''re not afraid of his giving you a licking, Moses?
15348The Keeling Islands?
15348The cone from which I observed smoke rising?
15348The gasometer?
15348The right hole?
15348Then that is the girl who is now here?
15348Then you have resided here for some time?
15348Then you wo n''t arrive as a stranger?
15348Then, may I call you Kathleen?
15348Vare? 15348 Vat must ve do_ now_?"
15348Vat shall I do? 15348 Vat you mean by zat?"
15348Vat_ shall_ I do?
15348Vere? 15348 Vy did I not shot it?"
15348Well now, what do you propose to do, as you refuse to leave me?
15348Well, I do n''t see much use ob two, but which does you like to be called by-- Nadgel or Roy?
15348Well, now,continued the captain,"what about Black Sam?"
15348Well, what of that?
15348Well?
15348Well?
15348Well?
15348Were you born in this region, Van der Kemp?
15348What brought you here, my son?
15348What cheer, Van der Kemp? 15348 What d''ee say to my soundin''her on the subject?"
15348What d''you mean, father?
15348What does he say?
15348What have you got?
15348What if the wind were to change and blow it all this way?
15348What is it?
15348What is to be done?
15348What must be the dwelling- place of the Creator Himself when his footstool is so grand?
15348What o''that? 15348 What other matter?"
15348What part of the shore are we near, d''you think, father?
15348What said you?
15348What was her name?
15348What was it, then?
15348What you want wi''_ me_, sar?
15348What''s wrong, massa?
15348What''s wrong, my girl?
15348What, the fish?
15348What_ can_ he be up to now, I wonder?
15348When do you start?
15348When you are almost terrified of your wits do n''t you pretend that there''s nothing the matter with you?
15348Where I puts your bed, massa?
15348Where am I? 15348 Where are you?"
15348Where do you go first?
15348Where is the professor, Baso?
15348Where''s Verkimier?
15348Whereabouts are you?
15348Who can tell? 15348 Who''s Van der Kemp?"
15348Why are you so anxious not to meet this man?
15348Why d''you think so?
15348Why did you not shoot it, professor?
15348Why not bring this man who claims to be her father_ here_?
15348Why not?
15348Why not?
15348Why not?
15348Why should I''pologise?
15348Why so? 15348 Why you not look out?"
15348Why!--what-- how beautiful!--but-- but-- what do you mean?
15348Why, Verkimier, what are you after?
15348Why, do n''t your flossiphers say dat black am better dan white for''tractin''heat, an''ai n''t our skins black? 15348 Why, what''s the matter, Moses?"
15348Will it come again soon?
15348Will ye throw us a rope?
15348Winnie,said Nigel when they were alone,"does n''t it feel awesome and strange to be standing here in such intense darkness?"
15348Wo n''t you tell us what you intend to do, professor?
15348Would it be presumptuous if I were to ask why it is that this pirate had such bitter enmity against you?
15348Would n''t you like a trip in my brig to Anjer, my dear girl?
15348Yes-- well?
15348You don''want nuffin''more to- night, I s''pose?
15348You draw landscape also, I doubt not?
15348You enjoy this sort of thing?
15348You have heard of the saying, no doubt, that''all things are possible to well- directed labour''?
15348You knew it?
15348Your doubting me, father, does not correspond with your lately expressed opinion of my seamanship; does it?
15348_ I_ wish you would turn your eyes towards me for I''m convinced they would give some light--? 15348 ''Cause why? 15348 ART ON THE KEELING ISLANDS,_ facing page_ 36 THEY DISCOVER A PIRATES''BIVOUAC, 164DO YOU HEAR?"
15348All eyes were turned at once on Nigel, some boldly, others with a shy inquiring look, as though to say, Can_ you_ tell stories?
15348Am I not a first mate with a handsome salary?"
15348An''what did she say with her eyes?"
15348An''who is your frond?"
15348And what of Moses''opinion of the new home?
15348And who has been your other teacher?"
15348And why do you fear him?"
15348And-- and when may I start?"
15348Are you much hurt?"
15348Are you prepared?"
15348Are you there, boys?"
15348Besides, am I not your hired servant?"
15348Besides, is it not unkind to such hospitable people to bolt off after you''ve got all that you want out of them?"
15348But are you certain there will be another explosion?"
15348But how dare you, sir, venture to think of marryin''on nothin''?"
15348But why you call me Kathleen just now?"
15348But, excuse me-- v''ere did you come from, and vy do you come?
15348But, will you explain how I am to make sure of Winnie''s state of mind without asking her about it?"
15348But-- really-- are we to start at daylight?"
15348CONVERSATION: WHY DON''T WE DO MORE GOOD BY IT?
15348Can you keep a secret, Moses?"
15348Could reasoning be clearer or more conclusive?
15348D''ee feel_ that_?"
15348D''ye want a lift to- day?"
15348DAPHNE''S DECISION; OR, WHICH SHALL IT BE?
15348Do I not hear somet''ing?"
15348Do n''t you needlessly run considerable risk?"
15348Do''ee want to be smothered, roasted, and blown up?"
15348Do_ you_ know, Moses?"
15348Does he not run a very great risk of being discovered?"
15348Does n''t it strike you so?"
15348Does you really t''ink I would say or do any mortal t''ing w''atsumiver as would injure_ my_ massa?"
15348FREAKS ON THE FELLS: and Why I did not become a Sailor?
15348Has anything happened?"
15348Has not its owner a good bank account in England?
15348Have you ever been in England?"
15348Have you had breakfast?"
15348Have you observed these two strong ropes running all round our gunwale, and the bridles across with ring- bolts in them?"
15348Have you tasted zee Durian?"
15348Have you, Moses?"
15348He come in vis a moss----""A what?"
15348He felt inclined to add:"But why all this moving about?"
15348How came it to grow in this way?"
15348How did I get here?
15348How does he live?"
15348How''s''er head?"
15348How-- how''s old mother Morris?"
15348How_ do_ you catch the turtle?
15348I have longed to visit Sumatra, ant vat better fronds could I go viz zan yourselfs?"
15348I have preparations to make, however, and I have no doubt you wo n''t object to remain till all is ready for a start?"
15348If you say it is, how are we to account for love at first sight?
15348Is it not so?"
15348Is not zat vonderful?"
15348Is there a bulkhead between it and_ your_ heels?"
15348Is there danger?"
15348It''s a considerable length to get, that, is n''t it?
15348It''s quite clear that she do n''t know what danger means-- and why should she?
15348May I ask what that service is to be, and where you think of going to?"
15348May I look now at what you have done?"
15348Moor?"
15348Moor?"
15348Moses, what are you talking to over there?"
15348None ob de books or t''ings?"
15348Not hurt much, I hope?"
15348Now the thing is ridiculous-- impossible-- for how can I know your opinion on any subject until I have asked you?"
15348Now, Moses, are you ready?"
15348Now, do you see the little island away there to the nor''-west?"
15348Of course you understand how to manage sails of every kind?"
15348Old Holbein?"
15348Our Maker has so ordained it as well as stated it, for is it not written,"The sleep of the labouring man is sweet"?
15348Roy?"
15348Roy?"
15348Shall I have to fetch any provisions with me for the voyage?"
15348Should I reveal my suspicions to Van der Kemp?"
15348THE QUESTION OF QUESTIONS:"WHAT THINK YE OF CHRIST?"
15348There is a friend there who has just told me he met you on the Cocos- Keeling Island, Nigel Roy;--you start, Winnie?"
15348There was an indication of a tendency to flight on the part of the natives, but Nigel''s asking"Where_ are_ you?"
15348Vat is zat?
15348Vat say you, Van der Kemp?"
15348Vy you come here joost now?"
15348WILL IT LIFT?
15348Was he asleep?
15348Was it nightmare?
15348Well-- where was I?"
15348Whar you comes fro''?"
15348What cause better zan frondship?
15348What has happened?"
15348What say you, Nigel?"
15348What would you say to charter a steamer and have a grand excursion to the volcano?"
15348Where are my comrades-- Nigel and the negro?"
15348Where is she?"
15348Who has not experienced this, and felt himself to be a very hero of self- denial in the circumstances?
15348Why do ye ask?"
15348Why not?
15348Why, therefore, did he feel uncomfortable?
15348Why?"
15348Will my friend go by that?"
15348Wo n''t you go in, Miss Winnie?"
15348You and the hermit are goin''off to Krakatoa to- day, I suppose?"
15348You are not hurt, I hope-- are you?"
15348You hear?"
15348You know all about the brig, an''what a deal o''repair she''s got to undergo?"
15348You wo n''t miss them, I daresay?"
15348[ Illustration:"DO YOU HEAR?"
15348_ I_ know,"cried the cheeky boy;"you means Johnson?
15348a moth-- well?"
15348are you awake?"
15348came at that moment from the other side of the obstruction,"are you there-- all right?"
15348cried Nigel, interrupting him,"do you really mean to tell me that you''ve brought me here as a hired servant?"
15348echoed the youth,"are some of them wrong ones?"
15348father?"
15348is she Moses too?"
15348laughed Moses, in guttural tones,"you soon see dat-- I''spose it time for me to get out de grub, massa?"
15348man, what d''ye mean?"
15348replied the negro, looking up with a somewhat stern frown and a pout of his thick lips, as much as to say--"Who are_ you_?"
15348said Nigel;"but how do you manage when the mountain comes between you and the sun, as I see it can not fail to do during some part of the day?"
15348say you so, mine frond?
15348steer through a green sea of leaves like that?"
15348still king?"
15348the professor?"
15348vare?"
15348vat vas it?"
15348vy do n''t you let me_ out_?"
15348what do you mean?"
15348what you gwine to do with massa?"
15348what''s his name, and what does he do?
15348where are''ee bound for?"
15348who could sleep with such wonders going on around?
12728A falsifier?
12728A race?
12728About how much would it cost us to fix her?
12728Accident?
12728All day?
12728All here? 12728 All of you?"
12728All ready there, Gridley?
12728Almost?
12728Almost?
12728And give up the whole of our summer vacation?
12728And is that all the good there is in this pony?
12728And may we wait here?
12728And you did n''t ask to have him run? 12728 Any girls there?"
12728Anyone at home?
12728Anything about us?
12728Are n''t you going to take your men out and warm them up, Prescott?
12728Are we going to win, now?
12728Are you coming out to wallop us?
12728Are you through, gentlemen?
12728At three in the afternoon on Saturday?
12728At what time of the day?
12728Baseball?
12728Beating their style of paddling?
12728Brag?
12728Brush?
12728But ca n''t you guess why we''re wearing the pins? 12728 But ca n''t you raise enough energy to come over in an hour?"
12728But how did the show folks manage to use this canoe?
12728But is n''t it cruel?
12728But what can I tell the folks at the hotel?
12728But why could n''t you send your own workmen out to cut the bark?
12728But why could n''t you tell us you were coming?
12728But you do n''t consider the matter as important enough, then, to interest the police?
12728But you''ll be back here to- morrow morning?
12728But-----"You''d like to see us play football some day, would n''t you?
12728Ca n''t some of the girls go, too?
12728Ca n''t we take you out, two at a time?
12728Can it possibly be anyone from Preston?
12728Captain Prescott, what is wrong with your boat?
12728Captain Prescott, will ten minutes be enough for you before the sounding of the first gun?
12728Could n''t we walk there and carry the canoe on our shoulders?
12728Could n''t you see, from their paddling, why they beat us with ease?
12728Depends upon what?
12728Dick Prescott, do you think we''d do a thing like that?
12728Dick, do n''t you think this canoeing is going to prove too dangerous a sport for you boys?
12728Did n''t we challenge you fellows, and did n''t you accept? 12728 Did n''t we promise you we''d rob some farmer for the feast?
12728Did n''t we race just now? 12728 Did n''t we say we would do so?
12728Did n''t you hear the news about that canoe?
12728Did we, girls?
12728Did you ever bring a drowning man to?
12728Did you ever see the like of this grand war canoe? 12728 Did you fellows study the paddling work of the Prestons this morning?"
12728Did you get it?
12728Did you see Dan?
12728Did you think we would, sir?
12728Do any of you wish to challenge it?
12728Do n''t you know that your blood is almost at fever heat after the strain of the race? 12728 Do n''t you see the gasoline engine and the folded white wings inside the canoe?"
12728Do we want to try you out?
12728Do you fellows think so?
12728Do you like her?
12728Do you mean to say that we did n''t do our best this morning?
12728Do you notice anything, boys?
12728Do you play football?
12728Do you really have to go back to Gridley?
12728Do you recognize it?
12728Do you think you can beat us in a canoe race?
12728Do you want to scare them to death by having another upset?
12728Do you?
12728Does the bonfire idea go?
12728Dog fund?
12728Especially after all the brag we''ve been throwing in their direction?
12728Ever see this before?
12728Flying start, or from a stop?
12728Fred Ripley?
12728Fred, do you desire to be examined now? 12728 Fred, what on earth does this mean?"
12728Going to- night, or to- morrow morning?
12728Great joke on Rip, is n''t it?
12728Has anyone here any choice as to what he wants me to offer next?
12728Have any of you boys ever handled a paddle before?
12728Have n''t we got to win?
12728Have n''t we improved a good deal on your Preston High School action?
12728Have n''t you heard about Fred''s pony?
12728Have the Preston boys a war canoe, too?
12728Have you heard of any more canoe clubs coming this way--- high school clubs with which you could arrange races?
12728Have you?
12728Having a picnic, are you?
12728He is a handsome little animal, is n''t he?
12728He--- er--- looks rather old, does n''t he?
12728Hostess?
12728How are you going to get there?
12728How can we help it, when we are to wear such dazzling uniforms?
12728How did the dog happen to catch you here?
12728How did you get that big canoe here?
12728How did you say you got here?
12728How do you know?
12728How does your craft go now, Gridley?
12728How long are you going to stay?
12728How many of you are there?
12728How much did you say the judgments total?
12728How so?
12728How was that?
12728How will the rest of us get along with the canoe while you''re gone?
12728How would to- morrow night do?
12728How you going to get her fixed?
12728I mean just what to say about robbing the farmers, do n''t I, girls?
12728I reckon you were in my truck garden this afternoon, were n''t you?
12728I wonder how long I was under water?
12728I wonder if Trentville is as good as Preston?
12728I wonder what Prescott and his mucker friends are here to bid on?
12728I wonder what can have happened to him?
12728I wonder what has happened to Fred Ripley?
12728I wonder why it is that I always have such poor luck when I have my heart most set on doing a thing?
12728If he tries it on, all we''ve got to do is to ask him,''How''s horse flesh, Rip?''
12728If you can do it, how much would you charge us?
12728In a car?
12728In other words, how soon are you going to be rid of us?
12728Is it?
12728Is that the way you get out of it?
12728Is the reason one that you may properly tell us?
12728Is there any way of bringing the canoe up again?
12728Is there much more of that bark on Katson''s Hill?
12728Is your canoe going to be a winner?
12728Is your letter at all of a private nature?
12728It seems too bad that boys''best sports should be so dangerous, does n''t it?
12728Kindness to you boys?
12728Like her?
12728Lot of fun in that war canoe, is n''t there?
12728Lots of fresh vegetables, too, eh?
12728Make a bonfire of it?
12728May I see it?
12728May we be permitted to withdraw?
12728May we take you young ladies out in the canoe this morning?
12728Might I ask where and how you find such delicious watermelons in this neck of the woods?
12728Must n''t do what?
12728Not Gibson, then?
12728Now, Dick, what are the improvements you thought you might have on the Preston style?
12728Now, Mr. Driggs, wo n''t you stop a moment?
12728Now, boys, is there much of that birch bark on Katson''s Hill?
12728Now, how long are you going to stay here, you beast?
12728Now, what''s up, I wonder?
12728Now, when are you coming over to that picnic in our camp?
12728Now?
12728Oh, you, is it?
12728Or go back to camp, to make it more ship shape?
12728Our very best?
12728Party ready to come back aboard the launch?
12728Prescott, what ails you?
12728Pretty bad, is n''t it?
12728See the canoe?
12728Shall I invite them over?
12728Shall we make Colonel Grundy a present of this canoe?
12728Shut up, wo n''t you?
12728So that you''d know how it feels to be licked and to have your school licked, too?
12728So you''ve been watching the race instead of the camp, have you?
12728Stole the stuff, did they? 12728 Struck by lightning, did you say?
12728Suppose we take a spin up the lake?
12728Sure you''re all right?
12728That''s a joke, eh?
12728The auctioneer''s name? 12728 Then how are we going to win in any other race against Preston High School?"
12728Then how do you expect to get hold of the canoe, sir?
12728Then how will the Preston fellows feel if we distance''em?
12728Then suppose you take my team out at six o''clock to- morrow morning?
12728Then what becomes of our Gridley talk?
12728Then what good is the pony?
12728Then why were you here last night?
12728Then you believe in being foolhardy, as a matter of training?
12728Then you decline to allow the name to be furnished?
12728Then you really expect to be here a fortnight?
12728Then you''re going to take us all with you, and the canoe, too?
12728They''ll have their war canoe in the water in a few days, will they?
12728Thinking of buying him, sir?
12728Throw the race?
12728Tom, what do you say? 12728 Took lot of my vegetables, did n''t you?"
12728Towing?
12728Trade?
12728Twenty- two? 12728 Want a tow, Gridley?"
12728Was that what ailed you, Dan?
12728We can paddle just as well without special uniforms,smiled Dick,"But how would it look for good old Gridley High School?"
12728We have about fifty dollars in our treasury, from the birch bark business,Dick mused aloud,"but that wo n''t help us any, will it?"
12728We have n''t reached the pines yet, have we?
12728Well, what are we going to do with our magnificent war canoe?
12728Well, who is it, and what is it?
12728Well, you''re coming over, are n''t you?
12728Were you bitten by the dog?
12728What are you towing?
12728What caused the accident?
12728What do you call your boat?
12728What do you say if we all walk away before the bidding begins?
12728What do you say, Dick?
12728What do you think of that?
12728What else?
12728What has happened?
12728What has that scrap of paper to do with it?
12728What is it, old chap?
12728What is it?
12728What is the meaning of this, young man?
12728What is this?
12728What is?
12728What news?
12728What on earth can ail our boys?
12728What on earth can he be doing here?
12728What on earth can you want to see me about?
12728What representations did the auctioneer make about the pony?
12728What shall we do with it?
12728What sort of business?
12728What trouble has the pup gotten into?
12728What would we call the club?
12728What would you care, if I did?
12728What''s all that yelling with''Gridley''in it?
12728What''s that?
12728What''s the matter now?
12728What''s the matter? 12728 What''s the matter?"
12728What''s the matter?
12728What''s the matter?
12728What''s the need of our forming a club?
12728What''s the use?
12728What''s up?
12728What''s wrong?
12728What''s wrong?
12728What? 12728 When do we start?"
12728When we race?
12728Where are the Indians that were here with the show?
12728Where are you going?
12728Where did they get the money?
12728Where is that wonderful, all- conquering way you were telling us about?
12728Where''s your horse, Fred?
12728Where?
12728Which hotel would we honor with our patronage? 12728 Which one is it?"
12728Who are up here, in the way of canoe folks?
12728Who did it?
12728Who is it?
12728Who starts the bidding with twenty dollars?
12728Who''s Rip?
12728Who''s going to eat, and when?
12728Who''s in there?
12728Who''s there?
12728Who''s there?
12728Why are n''t you all content to stay at home and use your canoe on the river?
12728Why are you walking when you own one of the best steeds that ever came out of Arabia?
12728Why at night?
12728Why did n''t we?
12728Why did n''t you tell me that before?
12728Why did n''t you tell us,Hartwell demanded over his shoulder,"that the much vaunted Gridley way is''way to the rear?"
12728Why do n''t you come along, Gridley?
12728Why do n''t you go on?
12728Why do n''t you land, Dick?
12728Why not ask the secretary, Mr. Howgate, to send his answer by telegraph to this hotel, collect?
12728Why not call it the Gridley High School Canoe Club?
12728Why not wholly?
12728Why, did n''t I tell you?
12728Why, has anything wrong been going on?
12728Why, what on earth have you here?
12728Why?
12728Why?
12728Why?
12728Will you follow me?
12728Will you kindly ask the manager to come here at once?
12728Will you ride your pony home, sir?
12728Will you?
12728Will you?
12728Will your mothers come, if we have it in the evening?
12728Wo n''t a deposit do?
12728Wo n''t there be some dog biscuit?
12728Wo n''t they be sore, though?
12728Would n''t Dick and Dave and the rest of their crowd enjoy this lake if they were here with their canoe?
12728Would n''t it be better to be back a good deal before that time?
12728Yes; at what time?
12728You boys will come over every day, wo n''t you? 12728 You can race just the same, ca n''t you?"
12728You can write to someone in the Council and secure the necessary authorization, ca n''t you?
12728You do n''t believe you can win any race with such paddling as yours, do you?
12728You do n''t mind if I run on ahead and leave you, do you?
12728You do n''t suppose I''d go to Lake Pleasant without the rest of the crowd?
12728You fellows from Gridley are always world beaters, are n''t you?
12728You fellows won the race, did n''t you? 12728 You felt so badly over the loss of the canoe that you tried to stay on the bottom of the river with it?"
12728You girls did n''t go foraging--- did you?
12728You know my Uncle Billy, do n''t you?
12728You want to see Gridley High School win more laurels in sports and athletics?
12728You were trying to do us a good turn?
12728You would n''t have us be mollycoddles, would you?
12728You''re going to try to take the ride with us, then?
12728''"_"When do Gridley and Preston race in a regular event?"
12728All, or a deposit?"
12728Also, did n''t you lose?"
12728And does n''t all this stuff prove it?"
12728Any of you boys know how to drive?"
12728Are you coming up with us, Hartwell?"
12728Are you there?"
12728Are you through, gentlemen?
12728As a lawyer, Mr. Ripley, what would you conclude from the evidence thus presented?"
12728Beauties, are n''t they?"
12728But could n''t you bring in a lot more bark if you had a team of horses and a good- sized wagon?"
12728But do n''t you notice what we''re all wearing?"
12728But would it be square business, after you young men have trusted me with your business secret as to where bark can be had for nothing?"
12728But you and I will both know this paper and the chisel again, if we see it, wo n''t we?"
12728But you ca n''t blame us, can you?"
12728Buying Fuel for a Bonfire?
12728CHAPTER II"RIP"TRIES OUT HIS BARGAIN Had a meaner trick ever been played on boys with whom it was so hard to raise money?
12728CHAPTER III BUYING FUEL FOR A BONFIRE?
12728CHAPTER X PUTTING UP A BIG SCHEME"Your uncle will be at his regular stand to- night, wo n''t he?"
12728CHAPTER XIX WHAT AILED GRIDLEY?
12728CHAPTER XVI A SCALP- HUNTING DISAPPOINTMENT"Want to try us out, Gridley?"
12728CHAPTER XVIII"WON''T WIN AGAINST A MUDSCOW""How can we help Mr. Wright by racing?"
12728Ca n''t this canoe be patched up, mended and put in commission?"
12728Can we stir up a fire and broil some fish?"
12728Could you?"
12728Dalzell, did n''t you know any better than to try to swallow the whole river and ruin my business?"
12728Dalzell?"
12728Dick, ca n''t you come over here a moment?
12728Did the coming of the launch mean that it was about time for the pleasant evening to break up?
12728Did you hear about Rip''s pony, Dick?"
12728Did you think that boys are the only ones who can go foraging for a country picnic?"
12728Do you agree?"
12728Do you know where to find it?"
12728Do you recognize it as yours?"
12728Do you want to get a chill that will keep the whole camp up to- night?"
12728Do you want to go along with us?
12728Dodge,"called the chauffeur,"but are you going to want me soon?"
12728Does anyone here know his address?"
12728Driggs?"
12728Driggs?"
12728Driggs?"
12728Gentlemen, do I hear three?
12728Gently?
12728Harry, will you do the honors?"
12728Harry, will you run over and ask Hiram Driggs to come here?"
12728Has either captain any questions to ask?"
12728Has n''t some one a choice as to what should be offered next?"
12728Hazelton blew out a mouthful of water, then called:"Everyone up, Dick?"
12728Here, Dr. Bentley, who had looked less concerned than anyone else present, broke in:"Your name is Dobson?"
12728How''s horse flesh?"
12728I do n''t imagine young Ripley will get much sympathy, will he?"
12728I wonder if he''ll, arrive at his destination during his lifetime?"
12728I wonder if it killed Dick Prescott and his crowd?"
12728If the race were to be held day after to- morrow--- saturday--- would that give both crews time enough to get ready?"
12728Is n''t it great?"
12728Is n''t that all clear?"
12728Is that a go?"
12728Is there anything more to be said about my son''s peculiar experience here?"
12728Is your father here, Miss Meade?"
12728It would be that much to the good for you, would n''t it?"
12728May we visit your camp?"
12728No one has any right to be poor--- but what can we do?"
12728No?
12728No?
12728Now, boys, does either crew wish to draw any expense money to help in preparing for the race?"
12728Now, boys, what do you want to know about this canoe that your eyes do n''t tell you?"
12728Now, where is the canoe?"
12728Now, who will start the bidding?
12728Now?"
12728Or do you consider that it was n''t a race just because you were n''t in it?"
12728Our friends are good to us but ca n''t they understand that we ache?"
12728Prescott?"
12728Say, boys, great joke how young Ripley got stung so badly, was n''t it?"
12728See if you make it the same?"
12728So will you do me the favor of asking your Mr. Howgate to telegraph his answer--- collect--- addressing it here?"
12728So--- well, you''ve all heard of sea sickness, have n''t you?"
12728That is, stole it in earnest?
12728That''s straight, is n''t it?"
12728Then Dick asked:"Mart, is your uncle at his stand now?"
12728Too much fun at home, eh?"
12728We''ll call it a deal, then, shall we?"
12728We''re always together in everything, are n''t we?"
12728Were Dick& Co. on hand the next morning?
12728What Ailed Gridley?
12728What if he knew that I hired that farmer''s son to swim under the float and attach that drag to the canoe?
12728What if the tackle had caught the body of some drowned man?
12728What is the principal item on the bill of fare of your camp?"
12728What makes you run so?"
12728What show was there for Dick& Co. or for Gridley High School?
12728What was his name?"
12728What would the guv''nor do if he knew that I tried to wreck Prescott''s outfit?"
12728What''s your offer, then?"
12728When shall we start--- and how shall we get there with our canoe?"
12728Where is that dog?
12728Who makes it twenty?
12728Who opens with twenty dollars?"
12728Who says eighteen- fifty?
12728Who says nineteen?
12728Who says ten?
12728Who says twenty- five?"
12728Who will say, clearly and distinctly, thirty dollars?"
12728Who will start the bidding at three hundred dollars?"
12728Why does n''t he come around?
12728Will two dollars be enough, Dick?"
12728Will you kindly tell us what you make out of this?
12728Wright?"
12728You can see that, ca n''t you?"
12728You did n''t demand the privilege of trying him yourself?"
12728You do n''t mind, do you, boys?
12728You saw the pony when it was offered for sale, did n''t you?"
12728called Ripley, with a sidelong glance at Dick& Co."Did I hear you offer thirty- five?"
23371A canoe?
23371A long one?
23371A noo mountain come into action, p''raps, an blow''d its top_ off_?
23371A what, sir?
23371Ai n''t it a nice place, Nigel?
23371An''is you_ quite_ easy in your mind?
23371An''whar you go to?
23371An''where would_ you_ like to sleep, Massa Spinkie?
23371And is Ross the Third still king?
23371And little Kelly Drew, what of her?
23371And pray who is massa?
23371And that is?
23371And what about large game?
23371And what may you be going to do there?
23371And you never heard of a gun- boat having captured a pirate junk and--"Why do you ask, and why pause?
23371And you wo n''t tell me your master''s name?
23371Ant vat if you do_ not_ find your frond zee captain of zee steamer?
23371Ant zey can not arrife, you say, for several veeks?
23371Are the Keeling Islands far off?
23371Are there any in these parts?
23371Are things quieter?
23371Are things quieting down?
23371Are ve near to zee spote?
23371Are you engaged, Van der Kemp?
23371Are you hurt, dear-- child?
23371Are you in earnest, father?
23371Are zee raskils near?
23371Are zey dangerows?
23371Are''ee sure, lad?
23371Ay, why not?
23371But how about_ my_ skull, Moses? 23371 But how if water gets in through a leak below?"
23371But how shall we ever see to make our way down stream?
23371But how,he asked,"am I to get zere ven ve reach zee sea- coast?
23371But how-- how-- why?
23371But is it wise in you to stay if you think an explosion so likely? 23371 But is not the cargo of the said ship safe in Batavia?
23371But seriously, Moses,he continued;"what do you think I should do?
23371But should we not hear them coming a long way off?
23371But what good will writing to my father do?
23371But what if I do n''t want to take service?
23371But what if Rakata itself should become active?
23371But what of the poor little girl?
23371But why did you go to live in such a strange place, dear father?
23371But why do you call her_ poor_ Kathy? 23371 But why do you love him, Moses?"
23371But-- where?
23371Can you guess what is the matter with him?
23371Can you run aft, Winnie?
23371Can you write shorthand?
23371Could n''t we lower a boat?
23371D''you think our old harbour will be available, Moses?
23371Did n''t I say so?
23371Did they_ all_ go in one direction?
23371Did you ever, during your search,asked Nigel slowly,"visit the Cocos- Keeling Islands?"
23371Do it always rain ashes here?
23371Do it? 23371 Do you always sneeze like zat?"
23371Do you expect''em back soon, sir?
23371Do you feel disposed for bed?
23371Do you hear anything?
23371Do you hear?
23371Do you know what makes him so sad?
23371Do you know, Moses, what business your master is going about?
23371Do you mean that we shall sleep in the canoe?
23371Do you not remember that my mother was ill when you spent a night in our hut, and my little sister was dying? 23371 Do you see that brass thing in front of you?"
23371Do you then think there is a possibility of an outbreak at some future period?
23371Do you think it safe to venture to visit your cave?
23371Do you think the people would object to my getting up into a tree with my rifle and watching beside the grave, part of the night?
23371Do you think this is an attempt to deceive us?
23371Do_ you_ fire, Mr Roy?
23371Enchoy it? 23371 Had we not better run for the nearest land?"
23371Hallo, what''s that, Mr Moor?
23371Hallo?
23371Has he, then, done you such foul wrong?
23371Has she ever spoken to_ you_?
23371Have you ever travelled in the interior of the larger islands?
23371Have you never seen or heard of your daughter since?
23371Have you not told me that this is the first time for about two hundred years that Krakatoa has broken out in active eruption?
23371Have you reason to think he would take your life if he could?
23371Have you studied astronomy, Mr Roy?
23371How comes it,he said,"that you are so much interested in me?
23371How d''ee know_ she_ will wait?
23371How did you escape?
23371How much time have you to spare?
23371How so?
23371How!--Do you get them to tow you?
23371How? 23371 I suppose the larger islands are densely wooded?"
23371I suppose you have plenty of other kinds of food besides this?
23371I suppose,he said,"that there is no fear of the Dyaks of the village being unable to beat off the pirates now that they have been warned?"
23371I''n''t it awrful?
23371If the volcano seems quieting down,said Nigel to his host,"shall you start to- morrow?"
23371If you tumbles a t''ousand feet into de water how much t''ink you will be lef''to pick up?
23371Indeed? 23371 Is Baderoon the enemy whom you saw on the islet on our first night out?"
23371Is Winnie going?
23371Is he harsh, then?
23371Is he not apt to be suffocated?
23371Is he so very bitter against you?
23371Is he then so fierce?
23371Is it daylight yet?
23371Is it far?
23371Is it often as dark as this in the daytime, an''is the sun usually green?
23371Is n''t dat enuff?
23371Is n''t you a- goin''to take nuffin''wid you? 23371 Is that all?"
23371Is that the lad Baso I see down there with the crew of the prahu?
23371Is that what he is doing?
23371Is this then the craft in which you intend to voyage?
23371Is, then, the orang- utan so powerful and savage?
23371Is-- is-- Van der Kemp safe?
23371Look''ere now, whitey,returned Moses,"what you take me for?"
23371May I ask, sir, what sort of cargo you expect there?
23371May I venture to ask for a fuller account of the injury he did you?
23371May not the cause be presentiment?
23371Mr Moor,said the captain somewhat excitedly, as he reached the deck of his vessel,"are all the men aboard?"
23371Need I say,continued the hermit,"that revenge burned fiercely in my breast from that day forward?
23371Nigel,said the captain, in a tone and with a look that were meant to imply intense solemnity,"have you ever spoken to her about love?"
23371Not dead?
23371Not in years,he returned;"but old,_ very_ old in experience, and-- stay, what was it that you were asking about?
23371Not widout arms?
23371Now, Moses, are you ready?
23371Now, Moses; what d''ye think of all that?
23371Now, are you ready?
23371Now, boy,said the captain when their host had gone,"what''ll''ee do?
23371Of course you have agreed?
23371Passionate?
23371Risk what? 23371 Seen who?"
23371Shall I light de lamp?
23371Shall we have a stormy night, think you?
23371Shall we manage it, Moses?
23371Strong?
23371Surely you''re not afraid of his giving you a licking, Moses?
23371The Keeling Islands?
23371The cone from which I observed smoke rising?
23371The gasometer?
23371The right hole?
23371Then that is the girl who is now here?
23371Then you have resided here for some time?
23371Then you wo n''t arrive as a stranger?
23371Then, may I call you Kathleen?
23371Vare? 23371 Vat must ve do_ now_?"
23371Vat shall I do? 23371 Vat you mean by zat?"
23371Vat_ shall_ I do?
23371Vere? 23371 Vy did I not shot it?"
23371Well now, what do you propose to do, as you refuse to leave me?
23371Well, I do n''t see much use ob two, but which does you like to be called by-- Nadgel or Roy?
23371Well, now,continued the captain,"what about Black Sam?"
23371Well, what of that?
23371Well?
23371Well?
23371Well?
23371Were you born in this region, Van der Kemp?
23371What brought you here, my son?
23371What cheer, Van der Kemp? 23371 What d''ee say to my soundin''her on the subject?"
23371What d''you mean, father?
23371What does he say?
23371What have you got?
23371What if the wind were to change and blow it all this way?
23371What is it?
23371What is that striking against our sides, Mr Moor?
23371What is to be done?
23371What must be the dwelling- place of the Creator Himself when his footstool is so grand?
23371What o''that? 23371 What other matter?"
23371What part of the shore are we near, d''you think, father?
23371What said you?
23371What was her name?
23371What was it, then?
23371What you want wi''_ me_, sar?
23371What''s wrong, massa?
23371What''s wrong, my girl?
23371What, the fish?
23371What_ can_ he be up to now, I wonder?
23371When do you start?
23371When you are almost terrified out of your wits do n''t you pretend that there''s nothing the matter with you?
23371Where I puts your bed, massa?
23371Where am I? 23371 Where are you?"
23371Where do you go first?
23371Where is the professor, Baso?
23371Where''s Verkimier?
23371Whereabouts are you?
23371Who can tell? 23371 Who''s Van der Kemp?"
23371Why are you so anxious not to meet this man?
23371Why d''you think so?
23371Why did you not shoot it, professor?
23371Why not bring this man who claims to be her father_ here_?
23371Why not?
23371Why not?
23371Why not?
23371Why should I''pologise?
23371Why so? 23371 Why you not look out?"
23371Why!--what-- how beautiful!--but-- but-- what do you mean?
23371Why, Verkimier, what are you after?
23371Why, do n''t your flossiphers say dat black am better dan white for''tractin''heat, an''ai n''t our skins black? 23371 Why, what''s the matter, Moses?"
23371Will it come again soon?
23371Will ye throw us a rope?
23371Winnie,said Nigel when they were alone,"does n''t it feel awesome and strange to be standing here in such intense darkness?"
23371Wo n''t you tell us what you intend to do, professor?
23371Would it be presumptuous if I were to ask why it is that this pirate had such bitter enmity against you?
23371Would n''t you like a trip in my brig to Anjer, my dear girl?
23371Yes-- well?
23371You don''want nuffin''more to- night, I s''pose?
23371You draw landscape also, I doubt not?
23371You enjoy this sort of thing?
23371You have heard of the saying, no doubt, that` all things are possible to well- directed labour?''
23371You knew it?
23371Your doubting me, father, does not correspond with your lately expressed opinion of my seamanship; does it?
23371All eyes were turned at once on Nigel, some boldly, others with a shy inquiring look, as though to say,"Can_ you_ tell stories?"
23371Am I not a first mate with a handsome salary?"
23371An''who is your frond?"
23371And what of Moses''opinion of the new home?
23371And who has been your other teacher?"
23371And why do you fear him?"
23371And-- and when may I start?"
23371Are you much hurt?"
23371Are you prepared?"
23371Are you there, boys?"
23371Besides, am I not your hired servant?"
23371Besides, is it not unkind to such hospitable people to bolt off after you''ve got all that you want out of them?"
23371But are you certain there will be another explosion?"
23371But how dare you, sir, venture to think of marryin''on nothin''?"
23371But why you call me Kathleen just now?"
23371But, excuse me-- v''ere did you come from, and vy do you come?
23371But, will you explain how I am to make sure of Winnie''s state of mind without asking her about it?"
23371But-- really-- are we to start at daylight?"
23371Can you keep a secret, Moses?"
23371Could reasoning be clearer or more conclusive?
23371D''ee feel_ that_?"
23371D''ye want a lift to- day?"
23371Do I not hear somet''ing?"
23371Do n''t you needlessly run considerable risk?"
23371Do''ee want to be smothered, roasted, and blown up?"
23371Do_ you_ know, Moses?"
23371Does he not run a very great risk of being discovered?"
23371Does n''t it strike you so?"
23371Does you really t''ink I would say or do any mortal t''ing w''atsumiver as would injure_ my_ massa?"
23371Has anything happened?"
23371Has not its owner a good bank account in England?
23371Have you ever been in England?"
23371Have you had breakfast?"
23371Have you observed these two strong ropes running all round our gunwale, and the bridles across with ring- bolts in them?"
23371Have you tasted zee Durian?"
23371Have you, Moses?"
23371He come in vis a moss--""A what?"
23371He felt inclined to add:"But why all this moving about?"
23371How came it to grow in this way?"
23371How did I get here?
23371How do you catch the turtle?
23371How''s''er head?"
23371How-- how''s old mother Morris?"
23371I have longed to visit Sumatra, ant vat better fronds could I go viz zan yourselfs?"
23371I have preparations to make, however, and I have no doubt you wo n''t object to remain till all is ready for a start?"
23371If you say it is, how are we to account for love at first sight?
23371Is it not so?"
23371Is not zat vonderful?"
23371Is there a bulkhead between it and_ your_ heels?"
23371Is there danger?"
23371It''s a considerable length to get, that, is n''t it?
23371It''s quite clear that she do n''t know what danger means-- and why should she?
23371May I ask what that service is to be, and where you think of going to?"
23371May I look now at what you have done?"
23371Moses, what are you talking to over there?"
23371Not hurt much, I hope?"
23371Now the thing is ridiculous-- impossible-- for how can I know your opinion on any subject until I have asked you?"
23371Now, Moses, are you ready?"
23371Now, do you see the little island away there to the nor''-west?"
23371Of course you understand how to manage sails of every kind?"
23371Old Holbein?"
23371Our Maker has so ordained it as well as stated it, for is it not written,"The sleep of the labouring man is sweet"?
23371Shall I have to fetch any provisions with me for the voyage?"
23371Should I reveal my suspicions to Van der Kemp?"
23371There is a friend there who has just told me he met you on the Cocos- Keeling Island, Nigel Roy;--you start, Winnie?"
23371There was an indication of a tendency to flight on the part of the natives, but Nigel''s asking"Where_ are_ you?"
23371Vat is zat?
23371Vat say you, Van der Kemp?"
23371Vy you come here joost now?"
23371Was he asleep?
23371Was it nightmare?
23371Well-- where was I?"
23371Whar you comes fro''?"
23371What cause better zan frondship?
23371What has happened?"
23371What say you, Nigel?"
23371What would you say to charter a steamer and have a grand excursion to the volcano?"
23371Where are my comrades-- Nigel and the negro?"
23371Where did you pick him?
23371Where is she?"
23371Who has not experienced this, and felt himself to be a very hero of self- denial in the circumstances?
23371Why do ye ask?"
23371Why not?
23371Why, therefore, did he feel uncomfortable?
23371Why?"
23371Will my friend go by that?"
23371Wo n''t you go in, Miss Winnie?"
23371You and the hermit are goin''off to Krakatoa to- day, I suppose?"
23371You are not hurt, I hope-- are you?"
23371You hear?"
23371You know all about the brig, an''what a deal o''repair she''s got to undergo?"
23371You wo n''t miss them, I daresay?"
23371_ I_ know,"cried the cheeky boy;"you means Johnson?
23371a moth-- well?"
23371are you awake?"
23371came at that moment from the other side of the obstruction,"are you there-- all right?"
23371cried Nigel, interrupting him,"do you really mean to tell me that you''ve brought me here as a hired servant?"
23371echoed the youth,"are some of them wrong ones?"
23371father?"
23371how does he live?"
23371is she Moses too?"
23371laughed Moses, in guttural tones,"you soon see dat-- I''spose it time for me to get out de grub, massa?"
23371man, what d''ye mean?"
23371replied the negro, looking up with a somewhat stern frown and a pout of his thick lips, as much as to say--"Who are_ you_?"
23371said Nigel;"but how do you manage when the mountain comes between you and the sun, as I see it can not fail to do during some part of the day?"
23371say you so, mine frond?
23371steer through a green sea of leaves like that?"
23371the professor?"
23371vare?"
23371vat vas it?"
23371vy do n''t you let me_ out_?"
23371what do you mean?"
23371what you gwine to do with massa?"
23371what''s his name, and what does he do?
23371where are''ee bound for?"
23371who could sleep with such wonders going on around?
42623A kind of patriot for revenue only?
42623A yard wide?
42623Afraid of him? 42623 Afraid of what?"
42623After they had landed and paraded, they--"Went fishing?
42623An''when do ye shut up?
42623An''ye call_ that_ workin''harder''n ye did on the old stone hill farm, do ye?
42623An''ye really think the young folks here hev done it abeout as well as the folks down to New York, do ye?
42623And I s''pose ye do n''t get down to yer store till abeout nine?
42623And Tod had it with him, did he?
42623And do you really think we did it all right?
42623And we were just going ashore to cook our dinner--"But when and where did you have breakfast? 42623 And will you paddle or sail?"
42623And you boys wo n''t make fun of me?
42623And, Bob, did he die?
42623Any of you fellows want to come along with me?
42623Are n''t they almost ready to begin, Ethan?
42623Are n''t you afraid?
42623Are n''t you satisfied with feeding us in this way? 42623 Are we going down to the rapids to- day?"
42623Are_ you_ going into the races?
42623At night? 42623 Ben, you''ll keep close to us, wo n''t you?"
42623Ben, you''re not going to paddle back to camp in that cockle- shell to- night?
42623Bernardo?
42623Bob, are you going on with that yarn?
42623Bob,demanded Bert, once more sitting erect,"the next time had n''t you just as soon tell us a true story?"
42623Bounty jumpers? 42623 But heow much has he got?"
42623But how did the gulf and the river get their names, Professor?
42623But how do the boats come up the river, then?
42623But how do the skiffs go?
42623But say, Jock, is it really true about the fishing and canoeing and all that sort of thing that they tell about there?
42623But they''ll cost you as much after you''ve paid the duty, wo n''t they?
42623But was n''t it the British lion you were telling about? 42623 But what I want to know is whether you are really going to enter the canoe races next week?"
42623But what are those houses or huts I can see on the rafts?
42623But what is a line boat, Ethan?
42623But what would have happened if it had made a hole in the boat?
42623But where were you? 42623 By steam?"
42623Carter? 42623 Caught on the bottom, did ye?"
42623Change? 42623 D''ye see how the teeth are all set the wrong way?"
42623Did I make any racket?
42623Did a fish do that?
42623Did he say that?
42623Did n''t he like the Hochelaga?
42623Did n''t you really see anything?
42623Did our side lose any?
42623Did they send ye word in the telegrams?
42623Did you ever catch a bigger one?
42623Did you ever hear about the fox who would n''t be hired to eat the sour grapes?
42623Did you ever hear it, Hank?
42623Did you know who we were?
42623Did you say he lives here now?
42623Did you say you had dinner now in the middle of the day?
42623Did you say you had had your luncheon?
42623Did you see anything?
42623Did you?
42623Do n''t one of you want to sit up with me awhile?
42623Do n''t use worms? 42623 Do n''t ye know what a liner is?
42623Do n''t ye know what they be? 42623 Do n''t you think we''d better go ashore?"
42623Do n''t you think we''d better take the oars, Ethan?
42623Do n''t you think we''d better try to go over to the mainland and rouse out Ethan? 42623 Do n''t you think you''d better let me take the pole now?"
42623Do they have''pi''s''n things''there too?
42623Do they make ye do it often?
42623Do ye mean to say ye''re goin''to give me all this money for that milk?
42623Do ye see that island over there?
42623Do ye think five cents would be too much?
42623Do you know any more as''true''as that?
42623Do you mean the maids? 42623 Do you mean to say we_ bought_ that fish?"
42623Do you mean to tell me they_ live_ on board those rafts?
42623Do you really think we''ll get one?
42623Do you remember about that chap who could talk a lot on some subjects, and did n''t know anything about others?
42623Do you think it will be safe for Jock to go?
42623Do? 42623 Done harm?
42623Down the Longue Seaut?
42623Duty? 42623 Ethan, are you a rich man?"
42623Ethan, did you bring over the things we were talking about last night?
42623Ethan, do the people down here ever laugh?
42623Ethan, have you ever been in New York?
42623Ethan, what have you got in those bundles?
42623Ethan,said Bob, soberly,"do you take summer boarders at your house?"
42623Ethan,said Jock,"do n''t you think we''d better telegraph to my father or to Ben''s?"
42623Fasting, fasting?
42623Finally, I plucked up courage and went down, but do you know what those girls did when I came into the room? 42623 Fishing?"
42623Forgotten them? 42623 Four, four?
42623George,inquired Jock, when the boat passed another island on which a farmhouse could be seen,"what do the people here do in winter?"
42623Got a pictur of it? 42623 Got five thousand dollars?"
42623Got good beds in it?
42623Got it all, Bob?
42623Got the wrong keers, have I? 42623 Got those''p''is''n things''?"
42623Got yer trunks checked?
42623Grass, is it?
42623Hank, is n''t it about quitting- time?
42623Hard? 42623 Have some more, Ethan?"
42623Have you got everything we shall want?
42623Have you heard from Bob? 42623 He was, was he?
42623He''d found the St. Lawrence and did n''t know it?
42623Heow was it? 42623 Hey?
42623Hey? 42623 Hey?
42623Hey? 42623 Hey?
42623Hey? 42623 Hey?
42623Hey?
42623Hey?
42623How can you buy over there and not pay duty, then?
42623How did the aforesaid Tod acquire his wealth?
42623How did you escape? 42623 How did you know there was a fight there, Bob?"
42623How do you do the fishing?
42623How do you know that, Ethan?
42623How far did he jump? 42623 How far down do you go, Ethan?"
42623How far down the river d''ye think them rapids be?
42623How much have we got?
42623How much shall we pay you for the milk?
42623How much will he weigh, Ethan?
42623How much will it weigh?
42623How?
42623Hurt''em? 42623 I know that, but they do n''t often come, do they?"
42623I s''pose ye''ve got a pretty fair house down to New York?
42623I s''pose you have to keep your doors locked down to New York, do n''t ye?
42623I say, Bob,interrupted Ben,"did you ever read any of Oliver Wendell Holmes''s books?"
42623I say, Bob,said Bert, when their friend joined them,"the next time you catch a weasel asleep, you let me know, will you?"
42623I say, Ethan,said Bob, opening his eyes lazily,"do n''t you think it hurts the fish you put on those hooks?"
42623I suppose you''re thinking of sending Ethan with his sailboat to look him up?
42623Is every man hereabouts as good a shot as that?
42623Is it a fish, Ethan?
42623Is it a muscallonge?
42623Is it safe to leave everything here in the camp without any one to watch it?
42623Is it safe? 42623 Is n''t it early for them to run?"
42623Is n''t that Ethan''s boat?
42623Is n''t that the way to do it?
42623Is that so?
42623Is that what you do, every day you go fishing?
42623Is that where we''re going?
42623Is the ice strong enough to bear them?
42623It is, is it? 42623 It''s hist''ry; an''ye study hist''ry, do n''t ye?"
42623Jock Cope, do you mean to tell me they have fish like that in this river?
42623Jock,said Bert,"have n''t I read that these canoes are upset very easily on the river here?"
42623Keeps a girl? 42623 Laugh?
42623Left the ship behind him?
42623Left? 42623 Literatim?"
42623Logs? 42623 Look out at that smoke, will you, fellows?"
42623Me? 42623 Me?
42623More fishing?
42623Oh, I had to live, did n''t I? 42623 One more?"
42623Pirates?
42623Poison things? 42623 Punctuatim?"
42623Rapids? 42623 Rich?
42623Safe? 42623 Safe?
42623Safe? 42623 Saying anything?"
42623Saying what?
42623See anything? 42623 Seen what?"
42623Shall I reel him in?
42623Shall I stand up?
42623Since when?
42623Spellatim?
42623Still fishing? 42623 Story?
42623Strike? 42623 Telegraph?"
42623That must have been one of the rapids, was n''t it, Ethan?
42623That you, Ethan?
42623That''s historic ground, is n''t it, Ethan?
42623That''s what you''ve been doing mornings, when you were up so long before us, was it?
42623That''s yer school yell, is it?
42623That? 42623 That?
42623That?
42623The seats are the beds? 42623 The''fresh airers''?
42623Then he never came as far up the St. Lawrence as we are now?
42623Then that''s the Longue Seaut, is it?
42623Then you''re Jock Cope''s boy, be ye?
42623They do n''t? 42623 They never make no complaint, do they?"
42623They say?
42623They were going to get a tutor for you, were they?
42623They wo nt be gone long, will they?
42623This side is what they call the Little Seaut, is n''t it?
42623This was a sand bar,laughed Bob,"and blocked his way, so he left the ship''s crew there--""The ship''s screw?"
42623To- day? 42623 Tom,"he added,"have you read much of Shakespeare?"
42623True? 42623 Up there in that garret?
42623Verbatim?
42623Wants ye to see it? 42623 Was Johnston captured then?"
42623Was he a- sayin''anything? 42623 Was he a- sayin''anything?"
42623Was he any relation to the wise man who jumped into the bramble bush? 42623 Was he in the War of 1812 too?"
42623Was he looking for a bar all this time? 42623 Was it during the War of 1812?"
42623Was that it?
42623Was that where Ethan got the pork we had for dinner to- day?
42623We go to the right of the island, do n''t we?
42623We''re going to still- fish, are we, Ethan?
42623We''ve been on_ The Trail of the Early Discoverers_, have n''t we? 42623 Well, what are you afraid of, then?
42623Well, you did almost get left, did n''t you?
42623Went where?
42623Were n''t they roaring and seeking whom they might devour this time?
42623Were the gubernatorial honors too heavy for his shoulders? 42623 Were they dead?
42623What are we to do now, Jock? 42623 What conspiracy are you up to now, Jock?"
42623What d''ye do that for?
42623What d''ye put me on this keer for, I''d like to know?
42623What did he call it that for? 42623 What did he plant it for?"
42623What did he say?
42623What did they do?
42623What did they parade for?
42623What did you do it for?
42623What did you do with the rest of it?
42623What did you do, Ben?
42623What did you get? 42623 What did you make all that racket for, then?"
42623What did you say, Tom?
42623What do they catch?
42623What do they catch?
42623What do we catch here?
42623What do you call that thing, Ethan?
42623What do you do it for, then?
42623What do you mean?
42623What do you mean?
42623What do you suppose is the trouble?
42623What do you think it looks like?
42623What does he mean by that?
42623What does it look like, Ben?
42623What does it mean?
42623What for?
42623What have you had? 42623 What have you read this winter, Tom?"
42623What is it, Jock, you and Ethan are plotting?
42623What is it, madam, what is it?
42623What is it, madam?
42623What is it, then? 42623 What is it?
42623What is it?
42623What kind of meat did you say this is?
42623What made you go into the water? 42623 What other thing?"
42623What races?
42623What was they?
42623What would happen to us if we should be caught in it?
42623What ye doin''that for?
42623What ye sleepin''out here for?
42623What''ll he weigh, George?
42623What''ll we do to pass the time, fellows?
42623What''s Hamlick? 42623 What''s a liner?"
42623What''s ever become of Hiram Munsell? 42623 What''s he been doin''now?"
42623What''s he done?
42623What''s that got to do with bounty jumpers?
42623What''s that he''s doing?
42623What''s that place ahead, Ethan?
42623What''s that place ahead, George?
42623What''s that young un up to now?
42623What''s that, Ethan?
42623What''s that?
42623What''s that?
42623What''s that?
42623What''s that?
42623What''s the course to be?
42623What''s the matter with those boys?
42623What''s the matter with those boys?
42623What''s the other theory? 42623 What''s the trouble, Ethan?
42623What''s the trouble, George?
42623What''s to be done to- day, Jock?
42623What''s wrong with this work?
42623What''s wrong?
42623When?
42623Where are the other boys?
42623Where are the teams to meet us, George?
42623Where did you come from, Bob?
42623Where did you get all these things?
42623Where did you get it, Jock?
42623Where do you get all the books you read, Tom?
42623Where have you been, Ben?
42623Where is it, Ben?
42623Where is it?
42623Where shall we have our dinner? 42623 Where was the biggest fight?"
42623Where''s the cartridge box, Ben?
42623Where''s the other boat?
42623Where? 42623 Which volume?"
42623Who are''they''?
42623Who calls it a strike, the bass?
42623Who told you?
42623Who''s going to drive you back to the Landing to- morrow morning?
42623Who''s there?
42623Who, me? 42623 Who, me?
42623Who? 42623 Who?
42623Who?
42623Whom are you talking about?
42623Whose island is that?
42623Whose two sons? 42623 Why did they wait?
42623Why do n''t they row back? 42623 Why do n''t they sail or row back?"
42623Why do n''t we stop there and get dinner?
42623Why do n''t you tell us how you did it?
42623Why do the bass come to the shoals, Ethan?
42623Why do you put such a fish as that on my hook?
42623Why not, I''d like to know?
42623Why not?
42623Why not?
42623Why should n''t they know about it, I''d like to know?
42623Why, yes; what did you think was here?
42623Why? 42623 Why?
42623Why?
42623Ye did, did ye? 42623 Ye do n''t really mean it, do ye?"
42623Ye will, will ye?
42623Ye''re ready to stop a bit, are n''t ye?
42623Yell? 42623 Yes, I know; but where are we going to fish?"
42623Yes, I see; but what kind of a sail is it? 42623 Yes; but he was crazy, was n''t he?
42623Yes; what was that?
42623You can try it, ca n''t you?
42623You do n''t mean it?
42623You do n''t mean to say we''re going through that in this skiff?
42623You do n''t mean to say you do n''t lock up nights, do you?
42623You do n''t often have a day like this, do you, Ethan?
42623You do n''t really think he''s been-- that anything has happened to him, do you?
42623You do n''t think we''ll do much? 42623 You mean the one who''d read a volume or two in the cyclopà ¦ dia, and not much besides?"
42623You think it will be safe for us, do you?
42623You were n''t here when the War of 1812 broke out, were you, Ethan?
42623You''re the porter, be ye? 42623 You?
42623Your ma keeps a girl, I s''pose?
42623_ If_ you_ win_? 42623 ''What''s the matter, sonny?'' 42623 ''What''s the trouble?'' 42623 --_Page 303._]I say, Hank,"called Bob,"did you ever see a bigger fish than that caught here?"
42623And are you really going to enter the canoe race, Mr. Dallett?
42623And will you paddle or sail?"
42623Any of you got a''crave''too?"
42623Any relation to a soaring lion?"
42623As Jock perceived that the tents had been restored, he turned to Ethan and said,--"Did you have any trouble in setting the tents up again?"
42623As his friends came nearer he held aloft the prize he had taken, and shouted,--"What luck, fellows?"
42623As the boys changed the course of the skiff, Bert suddenly exclaimed,"Look at that, will you?
42623Before any of the boys could start in pursuit of the fleeing Tom, one of them suddenly called out,"Is n''t that Ethan coming?"
42623Bill Johnston?"
42623Both boys were excited as they viewed the prize, and Jock exclaimed,--"It''s a pike, is n''t it, George?"
42623Both the boys laughed heartily at Ethan''s narrative, and now that his good humor was restored, he said,"Was n''t that greenness for ye?
42623But he was coming from among the trees, and his eager friends hailed him with the question,--"Where have you been, Bob?"
42623But what is it you and Ethan are going to do to- morrow?"
42623But you do n''t think for a moment that I''m going to give up my work in this thing, do you?
42623By the way, Ben, what made you yell so when you woke us up?"
42623Ca n''t you throw some sticks or stones at him, or poke him with a long pole?
42623Ca n''t you understand plain English?"
42623Can you make it?"
42623Can you take us fishing now?"
42623Cartier''s?"
42623Cartier, Champlain, Canada, Cavon, Catholic, Cortereal-- don''t you see, fellows?"
42623D''ye know heow much money I took in last summer rowin''?"
42623Dallett?"
42623Dallett?"
42623Did I disturb any of you?"
42623Did n''t I, fellows?"
42623Did n''t they have any farther down the river?
42623Did they like it?"
42623Did you ever hear what Henry Ward Beecher said about the tithing- man and his pole?"
42623Did you pay duty for that dinner ye et up to the hotel?
42623Did you think we would n''t recognize you unless you came before us in wet clothes?"
42623Dinner at night?"
42623Do I have to do the striking?"
42623Do n''t we look so?"
42623Do n''t you know about them?"
42623Do n''t you think Hamlet was puzzled and was somehow half talking to himself?
42623Do n''t you think so, Ben?"
42623Do n''t you think so?"
42623Do n''t you think we''d better go over to Ethan''s now and rouse him out?
42623Do n''t you want the trouble of rowing us back to camp?"
42623Do we really go through the rapids in skiffs, Ethan?"
42623Do ye think it''s safe, perfectly safe?"
42623Do you expect_ me_ to lie down on''em?"
42623Do you know the poet, the author of those touching, plaintive lines?"
42623Do you know, Bob?"
42623Do you recall the words of the immortal''Hamlick''to- night on that subject?"
42623Do you suppose it''s poison?"
42623Do you think he''ll have to give up going to college with us?"
42623Do you think it''s Ben?"
42623Do you want me to go over to the bay and get a doctor?
42623Does n''t he, fellows?"
42623Don''ye know what that is?
42623Duty?
42623Ethan was evidently incredulous, and said,"What time do ye get up in the mornin''now?"
42623Ever hear that dialogue down to your place?"
42623Ever hear that story, Ethan?
42623Faintly across the water came the answering cheer, and then, half laughing and half crying, Jock said,"Did you ever see such a fellow in your lives?
42623Fishing, fishing?
42623Folks have to eat, don''they?
42623For a moment no one spoke, and then Jock said tremblingly,"You do n''t suppose anything has happened to Ben, do you, Ethan?"
42623Got your ticket, Jock?"
42623Had n''t you better let me take the rod?"
42623Have n''t we roomed together all through senior year?
42623Have ye found out how many teeth a cow has on her upper jaw yet?"
42623Have you any idea how much they have made?"
42623Have you ever seen her in a canoe?"
42623Heow ye goin''to divide up yer party?"
42623How could he bear it?
42623How could they ever send word to his home?
42623How did he get here, then?"
42623How did you get aboard?
42623How did you happen to do it?"
42623How did you know we were hungry?"
42623How do I know so much?
42623How long since?"
42623How many have you got?"
42623How many teeth does a cow have on her upper jaw?
42623How much was it?"
42623I do n''t like that very well, do you?"
42623I had out about a hundred and fifty feet, when all at once--""What, what?
42623I mean any words like?"
42623I say, Jock, how did you happen to hit on this plan?
42623I say, girls, would n''t it be fine sport for Bessie and Mr. Dallett to have a race now?
42623I wonder if he really has read all those books he says he has?"
42623I wonder what Bob really went with him for?
42623I''d like to know if any country boy could be greener in the city than that city boy was in the country?"
42623I''m generous, am I not?"
42623Is it another fish you caught in those wonderful Longue Seaut Rapids?"
42623Is n''t Barnhart''s about as good a place as any?"
42623Is n''t that a beauty?"
42623Is n''t there something we can do?"
42623Is that it, or is n''t the fishing good this summer?"
42623Is that so?"
42623Is that where''Goose''Bay got its name, Bob?"
42623It''s about time for the muscalonge to begin to run, an''who knows but ye might strike one?"
42623Jock held aloft Bob''s prize, and called proudly,"Have you anything to match that?
42623Jock ran quickly to the place where his skiff had been left, and as he rowed around the corner of the dock to the cat- boat, Bert said,"Where''s Ben?
42623Leaving his seat, Jock approached the troubled passenger and said,"Did I understand you to say you were going to Philadelphia?"
42623Lived in the city all yer life, have n''t ye?"
42623Look at that, will you?"
42623Look at this, will you?"
42623Me?
42623Mis''Brown, ca n''t ye find a place for these folks?
42623More than two hours had elapsed since Jock''s departure from the camp, when Bob suddenly exclaimed:--"Is n''t that a canoe out there on the river?"
42623My father done harm?
42623Neow ye''ve seen this same performance in the place where you live, I take it?"
42623Only Bob was unmoved, and without a smile upon his face, he said solemnly,"Why do you talk it off like that, Tom?"
42623Out of an almanac or the cyclopà ¦ dia?"
42623Pretty good thing, is n''t it?"
42623Remember that, Jock?"
42623Satisfied with his inspection, he approached and said in a deliberate manner,--"Mebbe you''re Jock Cope''s boy?"
42623Say, who fixed me that way?"
42623See?"
42623Shall I help you bring the other canoe down to the dock?"
42623Shall we take the same course?"
42623She''s got a hired girl, has n''t she?"
42623Story?
42623Tell me the difference, will ye?"
42623The next day an Indian came to see him--""Hold on, Bob, is n''t that enough?"
42623The servants?"
42623Then that was the place where the bar you spoke of was, was it, Bob?
42623These the boys goin''into camp with ye?"
42623They ca n''t kick without legs, can they?
42623They call it his soliloquy, do n''t they?"
42623They have to have a place for their women folks and children, do n''t they?"
42623They''re to have the show next week, ai n''t they, Tom?"
42623Tom,"he added,"do you read any fiction, any novels?"
42623Want me to take the rod?"
42623Want to go along?"
42623Was ever a more luckless mortal born into this world?
42623We can try the fishing to- morrow, ca n''t we, Ethan?"
42623We do n''t have to do anything here, do we?"
42623We do n''t want to give up, do we?
42623We''ve been on this trail this summer; now, why should n''t we keep on and follow them into other places next summer?"
42623Well, I got up before light--""What, what?"
42623Well, I went over and she stood me up in front of a mirror and what do you suppose I saw, fellows?
42623Well, where do folks sleep, I''d like to know?"
42623Well, where is he now?
42623Were n''t you frightened, George?"
42623What are they?"
42623What are they?"
42623What are you thinking of?"
42623What are you waiting for, Ethan?
42623What d''ye mean, then?"
42623What d''ye think o''it?
42623What d''ye think o''that?
42623What d''ye think o''that?
42623What did he say?"
42623What did they want them to come for?
42623What did ye do it for?"
42623What did ye want to come down here for then, I''d like to know?
42623What do they ever parade for?"
42623What do you have for bait, then, I''d like to know?"
42623What do you mean, Ethan?"
42623What do you mean?"
42623What do you mean?"
42623What do you say?"
42623What fur?"
42623What is a roaring eagle, Bob?
42623What is it, Bob?"
42623What made him jump, anyway, Ethan?"
42623What makes you so particular?"
42623What more of a''story''do you want than that?
42623What soldiers came in here?
42623What was the first settlement above Quebec?
42623What were they?"
42623What''s a strike?
42623What''s that ye say?
42623What''s that ye say?"
42623What''s that?"
42623What''s the good of it, I''d like to know?"
42623What''s wrong?"
42623What''s yer ma do herself?"
42623When did ye expect to have it?"
42623When''s the next instalment due?"
42623Where did you get the stuff, Bob?
42623Where do ye s''pose he is?"
42623Where were you?"
42623Where''d you come from?"
42623Where''s your catch?"
42623Where''s your craft, Bob?"
42623Where?"
42623Who would have believed it?
42623Who would want to live in such a place?"
42623Who''s Carter?"
42623Who''s a- goin''to pay any duty, I''d like to know?"
42623Who''s to do that, I''d like to know?"
42623Why did n''t he call it what the people there called it?
42623Why do n''t I get any?"
42623Why do n''t you come on?"
42623Why not?"
42623Why should n''t it be safe?"
42623Why should n''t they be?"
42623Will he come?"
42623Will it do him any harm?"
42623Will you come with us?"
42623Ye can get along without me, ca n''t ye?"
