28221 | And have you never been back across the water? |
28221 | And how is Aunt Betty? |
28221 | And perhaps some of these days you will have the opportunity-- who knows? |
28221 | And then you would have to wait hours for it to dry, I suppose? |
28221 | And what do you intend doing, if I may ask? |
28221 | And who, please, is the dear old Bishop? |
28221 | And will you call me Aurora? |
28221 | At what time will it be convenient for me to call? |
28221 | Athletics? 28221 Bellvieu, Miss Calvert?" |

28221 | But vhy did n''t you let us know? |
28221 | But what did you want, Ephy? |
28221 | But what would you do if you had n''t? |
28221 | But you would surely regard his advice as worth something? |
28221 | Can we run into the city in the storm, Sharley, or will it be better to wait till it clears? |
28221 | Care? 28221 Den who shall say she vill not be charmed by vhat she hears? |
28221 | Did n''t I tell you so? |
28221 | Did you ask your aunt about starting on our trip the first of the week? |
28221 | Do you like it, Dorothy? 28221 Do you mean that the engineer has n''t yet got to the seat of the trouble?" |
28221 | Do you mean that, Metty? |
28221 | Do you think blue would be becoming, dear? |
28221 | Do you think so? |
28221 | Do you think, my dears, I did not hear you talking''way into the night? |
28221 | Do you want to go with us? |
28221 | Do you, really? 28221 Eh? |
28221 | First of all, what shall we sing? |
28221 | Gerald, did you provide sleeping quarters for the lady guests? |
28221 | Give a fellow a chance for a kiss, wo n''t you, Dorothy? |
28221 | Has anyone told you that you are to become a chauffeur? |
28221 | Has it-- has it anything to do with Uncle Seth? |
28221 | Herr Deichenberg? 28221 Hold him?" |
28221 | How about the boys? |
28221 | How are you, Aurora? |
28221 | How can it be arranged? |
28221 | How far can you run with one supply? |
28221 | How long have you been in America? |
28221 | Huh? |
28221 | I am? 28221 I know, Herr, but--""Did n''t I say no''buts''? |
28221 | I suppose you have all sorts of pupils, Herr? |
28221 | I trust you rested well? |
28221 | I''ve never thought to ask, but what sort of sleeping quarters are we to have at the camp? |
28221 | I, my dear young lady? 28221 In a little over an hour? |
28221 | In an automobile? 28221 Is that the camp, do you suppose?" |
28221 | Miss Muriel Tross- Kingdon? |
28221 | Not going on a train? |
28221 | Now, I''ve mystified you, have n''t I? |
28221 | Oh, Herr,cried the girl,"you-- you did n''t bring your old Cremona?" |
28221 | Oh, I wonder who it can be? |
28221 | Oh, I--"Are you going to leave me behind? |
28221 | Oh, Jim, wo n''t that be fine? 28221 Oh, are n''t we?" |
28221 | Oh, are they now, my noble philosopher? |

28221 | Say, do n''t I get in that game? |
28221 | Shall we say ten o''clock, then? |
28221 | So soon? 28221 So this is Len Haley, the boy who was lost in the woods in the dead of night?" |
28221 | Suppose we had run out of gasoline between towns, though? |
28221 | That so? 28221 Then Gerald is coming back, is he?" |
28221 | Then of course you do not know how long we shall be delayed? |
28221 | Then--? |
28221 | They would, Herr? |
28221 | Thought I could n''t catch a fish, did n''t you, Jim Barlow? |
28221 | Und how iss my little lady? |
28221 | Und vhy iss dat? 28221 Very well; will you tell them, and make my excuses? |
28221 | Vhy? 28221 W''at''s dat, Miss Aurory? |
28221 | Well, are you alone? |

28221 | Well, you got''em just the same, did n''t you? 28221 What are you boys going to do?" |
28221 | What became of the father? |
28221 | What can it be? |
28221 | What did you tell me about getting to town before dark? |
28221 | What do you know about life at a girls''school, Jim? |
28221 | What is it? |
28221 | What is the other wish, Dorothy? |
28221 | What of it? |
28221 | What time was this? |
28221 | What would any sort of a career be without you? 28221 What''s that stretch of water east of us, with all the little islands in it?" |
28221 | What''s wrong? |
28221 | What, a boy, and alone on the mountain at this hour? |
28221 | Whatever has come over you? |
28221 | When do we start? |
28221 | Where are you going to stop? |
28221 | Where are you? |
28221 | Where did Jim come in? |
28221 | Where did you think we were going-- to the village? |
28221 | Who dares talk of Dorothy when she is not present? |
28221 | Who ever heard of such a thing? 28221 Who have you there, Jim Barlow?" |
28221 | Who is this? 28221 Why not call it Camp Calvert?" |
28221 | Why, Herr Deichenberg, you do n''t mean that--? |
28221 | Why, auntie, dear, wherever are we to get an automobile? 28221 Why, is n''t that strange?" |
28221 | Why? |
28221 | Will you promise to be quiet, Dorothy? |
28221 | Wo n''t that be jolly? 28221 Wonder if there''s a village hotel in any part of the original thirteen states, which has n''t a picture of our immortal ancestor?" |
28221 | Would you drive us crazy, Miss Dorothy, that you stay avay all night and make us believe you are lost in the storm? |
28221 | Yes; but if we had? |
28221 | You are both chauffeurs now, I suppose? |
28221 | You boys are not going home? |
28221 | You do n''t know which way he was going at that time? |
28221 | You do n''t mean that you''re coming to live with Aunt Betty and I again, Jim? 28221 You do n''t mind my calling you''Jim,''do you?" |
28221 | You do n''t realize how you''ve grown and broadened, and--"Broadened? 28221 You heard someone cry out in the night, then?" |
28221 | You meant dat you vould like to see it, maybe? |
28221 | You read your music of course? |
28221 | You remember we discussed that last summer just before we went sailing on the houseboat, Dorothy? |
28221 | You see? |
28221 | You von''t believe me, eh? 28221 You vould like to try it, yes, Miss Dorothy?" |
28221 | You will have to serve an apprenticeship, I suppose? |
28221 | You''ve decided to accept, of course? |
28221 | _ Seem_ to be? 28221 ''So this is my old friend, Betty Calvert''s child, is it?'' 28221 A show fer w''at? |
28221 | A show fer? |
28221 | Addressing a middle- aged man who sat on the front steps of the hostelry, smoking a pipe, Gerald said:"How about breakfast for seven?" |
28221 | After holding him up as such a paragon, is it any wonder I should feel as small and insignificant as a mouse?" |
28221 | And are you to play my accompaniments?" |
28221 | And what about the vices I may have acquired?" |
28221 | Another half hour will put us to the gates of Bellvieu, eh, Gerald?" |
28221 | Any relation to Blank, the broker?" |
28221 | As for the money, Herr, is that any reason you should ruin your health?" |
28221 | Besides Jim, Gerald, Aurora, and ourselves, there will be no one but Ephraim, unless you care to invite your old chum, Molly Breckenridge?" |
28221 | But the others exchanged glances, as if to say:"Well, I wonder will she ever get enough?" |
28221 | But what is one night''s loss of sleep, anyway? |
28221 | But, being a guest, why should I not have the guest chamber?" |
28221 | Catch me doing a thing like that? |
28221 | Could this be the great Cremona of which she had heard so much? |
28221 | Dey pay me vell, yes, but vhat iss pay vhen you must labor with dem hour after hour to get an idea t''rough their heads? |
28221 | Did that nice boy, Jim Barlow, return to Baltimore with you?" |
28221 | Did you ever see a more rugged picture of health?" |
28221 | Do n''t you know your mistress?" |
28221 | Do n''t you think, Jim, there will be some way to save her all this worry?" |
28221 | Do you mean to insinuate that otherwise my course at Oak Knowe has been a failure?" |
28221 | Do you remember David Warfield in''The Music Master,''which we saw at the theater a year ago?" |
28221 | Do you t''ink you vill be able to accomplish many of those impossible t''ings?" |
28221 | Does yo''eber hunt de possum-- Climb de ole p''simmon tree? |
28221 | Go ahead, Molly; sing about the rocks and rills, the crags and-- and--""Pills?" |
28221 | Had these city folks come to eat him out of house and home? |
28221 | Hello-- who is this?" |
28221 | How are we to afford all these fine things when our finances are at a low ebb?" |
28221 | How are you?" |
28221 | How could one ever forget?" |
28221 | How could she ever, ever bear to give her up? |
28221 | How did you leave things up the Hudson, and especially at Deerhurst?" |
28221 | How would you like to do that?" |
28221 | I valk pretty straight, yet, eh, Miss Dorothy?" |
28221 | I wish to know if this will be agreeable?" |
28221 | Is dar anyt''ing moah I kin do?" |
28221 | Is n''t he a perfect dear? |
28221 | Is n''t she looking well?" |
28221 | Iss dat not so?" |
28221 | Iss it stingy I am, do you t''ink? |
28221 | Like we did in de good ole times W''en de niggah was n''t free? |
28221 | Me vorried? |
28221 | Millikins- Pillikins is related to Miss Muriel Tross- Kingdon, I suppose?" |
28221 | My dear boy, did n''t you see the big gym at Oak Knowe? |
28221 | No doubt he and Jim will get along better this time-- for, of course, Jim is to be included in our party?" |
28221 | Not changing the subject, but how do I reach my room?" |
28221 | Now, are n''t you?" |
28221 | Now, did n''t you?" |
28221 | Now,''fess up, are n''t you, Herr Deichenberg?" |
28221 | Oh, and was that the secret you had to tell me?" |
28221 | Oh, then you have already found my teacher?" |
28221 | Ronald?" |
28221 | Shall we name it Camp Blank or Camp Calvert?" |
28221 | Shall we try de''Miserere''from''Il Trovatore?'' |
28221 | Surely you''ve heard Molly speak of Len Haley, sir? |
28221 | The only thing worrying me now is that I''m expecting to hear from one of my dearest girl chums, Molly Breckenridge--""Oh, and is she going with us?" |
28221 | The question now is, what are we going to do?" |
28221 | The trolleys do not run that far, so how--?" |
28221 | Then what are those lights, my dear?" |
28221 | This was put partly in the form of a question and the girl responded:"Do you mean, Mr. Ludlow, that you would like to offer me an engagement?" |
28221 | Vhat iss de use of playing de whole affair over in your mind, until you are sick und tired of it? |
28221 | Vhat you t''ink, dat you are not good enough to be taught on a Cremona, eh?" |
28221 | Vhen shall de first lesson be given?" |
28221 | Vhy iss it dat you vait an eternity? |
28221 | Vhy?" |
28221 | Want to read it?" |
28221 | Was it indeed she who made such delightful music, or was she dreaming? |
28221 | We are to be gone several weeks, during which time who can say what glorious adventures we will have? |
28221 | We do n''t have times like this every year, do we Molly, girl?" |
28221 | What has happened in old Baltimore since I''ve been gone? |
28221 | What ship is that?" |
28221 | When do we start, auntie?" |
28221 | When do you begin your apprenticeship?" |
28221 | Where can I see you to- morrow?" |
28221 | Who knows? |
28221 | Why did I ever let you persuade me to become a party to this speed mania, Gerald Blank?" |
28221 | Why do n''t you go?" |
28221 | Why, surely there are other pupils who have more talent and can make a better showing for you than I?" |
28221 | Wo n''t someone please help me? |
28221 | Would he bring his violin? |
28221 | Would it not, Judge Breckenridge?" |
28221 | You are fascinated with it all, yes?" |
28221 | You know his father failed in business, so that he was forced to sell the houseboat, and that Uncle Seth bought it for you? |
28221 | You must have known Molly and I were only joking?" |
28221 | You surely can not afford so expensive a luxury?" |
28221 | You will remember how he encouraged and developed your talent while we were at Deerhurst, arranging with Mr. Wilmot to give you lessons? |
28221 | You''ll tell me about them in good time, wo n''t you, Dorothy?" |
28221 | now you are ready? |
32556 | A boarding house? |
32556 | About me, Alfy, what could you have been saying about me? |
32556 | Ah, is it so soon? 32556 Alfy, are you sure you are not crazy?" |
32556 | All right,replied Alfy,"do you need me to do up the back of your dress?" |
32556 | An amusing anecdote, and I do n''t doubt a real one,said Aunt Betty, laughing with the others,"but is n''t that a wonderful old fountain? |
32556 | And did you get a room there where Ruth is, Jim? |
32556 | And how about our concert to- night? |
32556 | And how is Miss Ruth, to- day? |
32556 | And what did you think of it, Alfy? |
32556 | And what is this key hanging here for? |
32556 | Are we all here? 32556 Are you all here?" |
32556 | Are you going out in front to sit with your aunt and Alfaretta, after you have finished? |
32556 | Are you going to sing to- day? |
32556 | Are you sure, dear, you have looked all over everything you have? |
32556 | But have n''t you seen enough of the library now? |
32556 | But is n''t it too bad that the locket just disappeared when we needed it? 32556 But, Aunt Betty,"asked Alfy,"what are you going to wear?" |
32556 | Ca n''t we all go? |
32556 | Can I go with you? |
32556 | Can I wear that new pink dress, Aunty? |
32556 | Can any one stay here and read anything they want, and as long as they want? |
32556 | Can it take us back, then? |
32556 | Could n''t you have walked a little faster, Ruth? |
32556 | Dear, dear child, do n''t you know how foolish that was to do? 32556 Did Mr. Sterling have anything to do with trying to get you the place, Jim?" |
32556 | Did anyone in the passenger cars get hurt? |
32556 | Did you come to keep us company all the afternoon? |
32556 | Did you have an uneventful trip? |
32556 | Do n''t the people in New York care for gardens, aunty dear? |
32556 | Do n''t you think it would be real nice if we four went for a drive this afternoon? 32556 Do the Republicans sit on the left of the Speaker here, and the Democrats on the right, as in the House?" |
32556 | Do you and Alfy want to be audience again, while I play over my pieces once more? |
32556 | Do you know their names? 32556 Do you know,"he repeated,"that I would like to render such service that you would never wish for any other servitor?" |
32556 | Do you suppose I can get them here? |
32556 | Do you suppose we have struck another train? |
32556 | Do you think it is going to be real serious? |
32556 | Do you want me to play again in New York? |
32556 | Do you want to see the stage? |
32556 | Do you want your black wrap? 32556 Dorothy dear, whatever made you forget?" |
32556 | Dorothy girl, are you still in bed? |
32556 | Dorothy, child, what ails you? |
32556 | Dorothy, little Dorothy, did n''t you know before? 32556 Go home?" |
32556 | Guess what? |
32556 | Guess what? |
32556 | Have n''t you any business friends in New York? |
32556 | Have you no other proof? |
32556 | How do they use it? |
32556 | How many shall we need? |
32556 | How, oh how, can I get it? 32556 Hurt her? |
32556 | I ca n''t understand it, can you? |
32556 | I suppose I ought to know, but who is the Speaker, and what does he do? |
32556 | I wonder,said Aunt Betty, slowly, for she had been thinking,"I wonder if it could be? |
32556 | I''m not scared, I''m sure of that; but do you think the people will like me? |
32556 | In the taxi? 32556 Is any one hurt?" |
32556 | Is it here? |
32556 | Is n''t the floor lovely? 32556 Is that Benjamin Franklin?" |
32556 | Is there anything else that you would like to have pressed, now that I am working? |
32556 | Is there anything you would like to ask me? |
32556 | Is this right? |
32556 | Is this the place? 32556 It can take back two cars, sir,"answered the conductor,"and would you object, sir, if I put some other passengers in here with you?" |
32556 | It certainly is simple, and I will surely be able to play at the reception to- morrow afternoon? |
32556 | Jim, dear, you too feel sad? |
32556 | Jim, do you want to stay here and be my audience while I practice and tell me what you think of my playing? |
32556 | Let me see, little miss, how about the proof I must have? 32556 Ma, can I have the sampler?" |
32556 | Ma, ma,and Alfy ran in the kitchen calling louder as she went:"Where did you put my raincoat? |
32556 | Ma, who did you say? |
32556 | May I have it? |
32556 | May I have the sampler, Alfy? |
32556 | May I quote for you a little gem that is aptly expressive of my sentiments? |
32556 | Mr. Ludlow,asked Dorothy,"where shall I stand?" |
32556 | No it is n''t, is it Jim? |
32556 | Oh dear, Dorothy did n''t I get you the book to read? |
32556 | Oh, Dorothy,Gerald called back,"when shall I return for you?" |
32556 | Oh, ca n''t I stay and talk? |
32556 | Or did you just wish to hear Dorothy play? |
32556 | Or taken the stage to the station if you were so tired? 32556 Shall I get the stamps?" |
32556 | Shall I get your things all out and have everything all ready for you? |
32556 | Shall we get a Capitol guide? |
32556 | Shall we ride? |
32556 | That does n''t excuse my little girl,remarked Aunt Betty, and turning to Dorothy,"What is it we are going to hear, dearest?" |
32556 | That saves us a good deal of trouble and expense, does n''t it? 32556 Then I may go?" |
32556 | Then do I understand that all Dorothy has to do is to prove she is Dorothy Winchester Calvert and she will come into this inheritance? |
32556 | Then, maybe our floor will not be burned at all? |
32556 | Was n''t that a nice idea to put the flag back there? |
32556 | Well, Alfy, all ready to go home? |
32556 | Well, Dorothy girl,said Aunt Betty, turning to her,"what will it be?" |
32556 | Well, Dorothy, child,asked Mr. Ludlow,"is everything all right? |
32556 | Well, ca n''t my little girl wait till then and see what more, for herself? 32556 Well, have you all selected those you wish?" |
32556 | Well, what next, Dorothy girl? |
32556 | Well, young man, what is it this time? |
32556 | What Hannah? 32556 What about the concert? |
32556 | What are we going to do now? 32556 What are we to do now?" |
32556 | What are you going to put in? |
32556 | What are you talking about? 32556 What did Aunt Betty have to say?" |
32556 | What did Mr. Van Zandt say? |
32556 | What did he want, dear? |
32556 | What did you do with it? |
32556 | What did you see? |
32556 | What did you want him for, Jim? |
32556 | What do you think of me? |
32556 | What do you think of the fire? |
32556 | What does it represent? |
32556 | What dress do you want to wear? |
32556 | What is Alfy talking about, Aunt Betty? |
32556 | What is a mace? |
32556 | What is it you want to say? |
32556 | What is it, ma? |
32556 | What is that star set in the floor for? |
32556 | What is this next room? |
32556 | What kind of ice cream would you like, Alfy? |
32556 | What may they be? |
32556 | What may you want? |
32556 | What shall I do with these? 32556 What time is it, I wonder?" |
32556 | What would you like to have? |
32556 | What''s that? 32556 What''s the matter, Alfy?" |
32556 | When is another train due here? |
32556 | Where did all these statues come from? |
32556 | Where did you have it last? |
32556 | Where do you suppose? |
32556 | Where is Dorothy? 32556 Where is it near?" |
32556 | Where is it? |
32556 | Where is it? |
32556 | Where next? |
32556 | Who are all these statues of? |
32556 | Who gave you those beautiful violets you are wearing, that just match your eyes? |
32556 | Who is it, then, that uses that beautifully carved high backed chair on that little platform there? |
32556 | Who uses them? |
32556 | Whose room is this? |
32556 | Why has the locket gone? |
32556 | Why not ask Mr. Ludlow? 32556 Why not?" |
32556 | Why, Alfy, what have you there? |
32556 | Would n''t it be odd if it was his mother who made this sampler? 32556 Would n''t that be rather lonesome, Miss Ruth?" |
32556 | Would n''t you rather have someone else here with you? |
32556 | Yes, and are you to sing? |
32556 | Yes, and did you see this one? |
32556 | Yes, do you want to come out with me? |
32556 | Yes, where? |
32556 | Yes,answered Aunt Betty,"what is it? |
32556 | You are to play to- night, are you not? |
32556 | You will miss me? |
32556 | You will promise me then? 32556 You will?" |
32556 | And I can start to- morrow-- yes? |
32556 | And can I wear the red hair ribbon Ma Babcock bought me from Liza Jane''s?" |
32556 | And is Mr. Dauntrey there?" |
32556 | And so you think that perhaps Mr. Van Zandt will find out all about poor little Lem''s parents just from that sampler that Alfy found in the attic? |
32556 | And was she very poor-- poorer than we?" |
32556 | And what is the name? |
32556 | And why are all the lights out?" |
32556 | And why did the train lurch so? |
32556 | And you are a solo violinist?" |
32556 | And, my-- what was that in the corner? |
32556 | Are we to stay right where we are, conductor?" |
32556 | Aunt Betty carefully read the letter through and turning to Jim, asked,"What are you going to do about it, my boy?" |
32556 | Aunt Betty, where are you?" |
32556 | Ca n''t think of anyone else writing me, can you? |
32556 | Can we have oysters, Aunt Betty?" |
32556 | Come now, tell me what you want us to dress for?" |
32556 | Could n''t you guess?" |
32556 | Could you care, not as much as I do, now, but just a little?" |
32556 | Could you? |
32556 | Dauntrey?" |
32556 | Did I do better than I did this afternoon before I went in to see Mr. Ludlow, and did you notice the difference in the playing of the last piece?" |
32556 | Did n''t Mr. Ludlow tell you?" |
32556 | Did n''t you hear a knock?" |
32556 | Did they all belong to Washington?" |
32556 | Do you know where it is?" |
32556 | Do you like it? |
32556 | Do you remember, Jim? |
32556 | Do you think it could be possible that this sampler was made by his mother? |
32556 | Do you think it is becoming? |
32556 | Do you think so, Aunt Betty?" |
32556 | Do you think, Jim, that traveling will hurt Aunt Betty?" |
32556 | Do you want to talk business with me?" |
32556 | Dorothy dear, will you see if you can find my glasses? |
32556 | Dorothy finished her piece and then came over and kissed her aunt, saying,"Dear Aunt Betty, have you and Alfy enjoyed yourselves?" |
32556 | Dorothy had risen, and coming to him, placed her hands in his and said,"Is this all true or just a joke?" |
32556 | Dorothy liked to have Jim assume authority over her in this manner, and questioned gayly:"Well, Father Jim, what did he want?" |
32556 | Dorothy looked at the large room and the many chairs and said hesitatingly,"Will it be crowded?" |
32556 | Dorothy, greatly surprised, questioned,"You are coming back, Gerald?" |
32556 | Have I you to thank for bringing her to me?" |
32556 | Have n''t we, Jim?" |
32556 | How can Jim tell us while you are talking?" |
32556 | I did n''t keep you waiting very long to- day, did I?" |
32556 | I think the first letter is''W,''not''M,''"and turning to Alfy,"what did Ma Babcock say about the name?" |
32556 | I was going to say-- what was I going to say?" |
32556 | Is it of great value?" |
32556 | Is n''t he a handsome man?" |
32556 | Is n''t it all very beautiful?" |
32556 | Is n''t it wonderful? |
32556 | Is n''t that so?" |
32556 | Is there anything now you want to ask me?" |
32556 | Is there going to be people in all of them?" |
32556 | It''s been more than a year since you have seen me, is n''t it?" |
32556 | Jim answered,"Will you tell Miss Boothington that Miss Dorothy Calvert wishes to see her?" |
32556 | Jim seized her hands and asked hurriedly,"Could you love me? |
32556 | Let me see-- just what day is this?" |
32556 | Ludlow?" |
32556 | Ludlow?" |
32556 | Matthew heard her and came running up, saying:"What''s the matter, sis?" |
32556 | Mr. Ludlow usually attends to Ruth himself; I wonder why he has not thought of her?" |
32556 | Mrs. Calvert then asked,"Did anyone see out of the window when the flash of lightning lit up this car?" |
32556 | Mrs. Calvert, who was facing the window, looked out and gasped,"Oh, why do n''t they stop the train?" |
32556 | Now, Dorothy child, what would you like to play? |
32556 | Now, is n''t this a nice, long, newsy letter? |
32556 | Now? |
32556 | Oh, Jim, what day does the 27th of September fall on?" |
32556 | Oh, dear, oh, dear; do you really suppose that I will be a very great violinist?" |
32556 | Oh, did you look in the closet in the barn? |
32556 | Oh, why is it I never get into any such wonderful adventures?" |
32556 | On reaching a small outer office he asked of a pleasant faced girl sitting there,"Can I see Mr. Van Zandt? |
32556 | On the way out from the library, Dorothy asked,"Mr. Ludlow, are all these pictures and pieces of statuary done by Italians and other foreigners?" |
32556 | Please, please tell me? |
32556 | Ruth and Mr. Dauntrey, where are they?" |
32556 | Ruth questioned,"Is he cross? |
32556 | Ruth started off by saying,"Dorothy, do you believe what this guide is telling us or do you think he is fooling us?" |
32556 | Ruth thought this a pretty spot indeed, and exclaimed,"Oh, just see here, is n''t this a romantic spot? |
32556 | See the carved figures?" |
32556 | She said to Mrs. Calvert:"Aunt Betty, what shall I do? |
32556 | She turned and saw Jim on the veranda outside the window, and crossing the room and lifting up the French sash she said,"What is it, Jim?" |
32556 | So you are the Jim she speaks of in the letter, and says I may question concerning these matters?" |
32556 | The fact was suggestive of further danger, and then Dorothy questioned,"What was the crash? |
32556 | The offer is for work in the-- what department is it?" |
32556 | Then Alfy summoned her lost courage and said as calmly as she could,"Who''s there?" |
32556 | Then Ruth broke the silence by asking,"Where is your violin, Dorothy?" |
32556 | Then quickly changing his tone of voice to a more cheerful one, he continued:"Dear, never mind, we can be the same old friends again, ca n''t we?" |
32556 | Then you will come to me, girl?" |
32556 | Then, Dorothy girl, you will give me my answer?" |
32556 | Was it fire? |
32556 | Was someone being robbed, or murdered, or what? |
32556 | We can have this one secret from everyone else, ca n''t we? |
32556 | What are you to play?" |
32556 | What can I give you to sew? |
32556 | What day is it? |
32556 | What did you find to talk about?" |
32556 | What is it?" |
32556 | What is that brass disk for?" |
32556 | What shall I do, oh, what shall I do?" |
32556 | What shall I do?" |
32556 | What shall I wear?" |
32556 | What time is it, I wonder? |
32556 | When did you come into the room, just now?" |
32556 | When she had finished, she laid down her violin, and came and stood in front of her aunt, questioning:"Do you think I played them well enough? |
32556 | When? |
32556 | Where are you?" |
32556 | Where are you?" |
32556 | Where have you been?" |
32556 | Where is she?" |
32556 | Where is that? |
32556 | Where? |
32556 | Who sent them to you?" |
32556 | Why, Dorothy, what has happened? |
32556 | Will you please now tell me what you would like to have me wear?" |
32556 | Will you see that they are placed in Mr. Van Zandt''s hands safely? |
32556 | Would Alfy be the companion? |
32556 | You are not scared, are you? |
32556 | You do not mind playing there, do you? |
32556 | You here, too? |
32556 | You remember her saying that she was tired of boarding house meals, do you not?" |
32556 | You remember the convent we saw in Jackson Park yesterday, where they had all of those Columbus relics?" |
32556 | You remember them, do n''t you, Dorothy?" |
32556 | You say you think that Mrs. Haley, or Hannah Woodrow, is dead?" |
32556 | You will, will you not?" |
32556 | You will? |
32556 | angrily added Alfy,"why could n''t ma have a dress like that? |
32556 | he questioned,"really miss me?" |
32556 | what have you done?" |
26389 | A lantern, in this moonlight? |
26389 | A nurse, too? 26389 Be I awake or asleep? |
26389 | But your suit? 26389 But-- is it safe? |
26389 | But--"''But''--what? 26389 Ca n''t you talk, kid?" |
26389 | Could it? 26389 Dear, did you ask the man you call Silent Pete if he passed them anywhere along the road?" |
26389 | Do what again, child? |
26389 | Eh? 26389 Fits good, hey?" |
26389 | Girl, how can you? |
26389 | Has Leslie ever been here before? |
26389 | Have you heard it before? 26389 How are you, sonny?" |
26389 | How came you by that Indian rig? 26389 How can anybody be tired in this glorious air?" |
26389 | How''s business, Andy? |
26389 | However could you see it? 26389 Is it as good as the''cabin,''father?" |
26389 | Is it far? 26389 Is n''t it fine? |
26389 | Is n''t it splendid? 26389 Is this the lad with the injured arm?" |
26389 | Is-- is-- he-- dead? |
26389 | Josà ©, where is this place? |
26389 | Lem, do you think you can run San Leon without me for a few days? |
26389 | Leslie? 26389 Like brook trout, Mis''Ford?" |
26389 | Ma''am? 26389 Molly, what''s the matter?" |
26389 | Now, if we are to''inspect''the''Barracks,''is n''t it time? 26389 Odd, is n''t it? |
26389 | Our very own? 26389 Rather-- what''s down? |
26389 | San Lean? 26389 So you''re up against a tough proposition, are you, youngsters? |
26389 | Suit? 26389 That fellow smart? |
26389 | The doctor? 26389 W- h- a- t?" |
26389 | Well, what''s a hen''s business in life but to lay eggs? |
26389 | Well, you would n''t want a half one, would you, Miss Babcock? 26389 Well, young man?" |
26389 | Were you asleep? |
26389 | What does it mean? |
26389 | What on earth does it mean? |
26389 | What then? 26389 What''s a doin'', younkers? |
26389 | What''s happened, Helena? |
26389 | What''s the difference? 26389 What''s the matter, Les? |
26389 | What? 26389 Where do you suppose Wun Sing is?" |
26389 | Where-- am-- I? 26389 Where-- am-- I?" |
26389 | Who is''Barnaby,''Alfy? |
26389 | Why, Lady Gray, I could n''t let a girl like Molly ride away alone, could I? 26389 Why-- why-- aren''t you coming too? |
26389 | Will you come over there and bring me just another such a luncheon, girlie? |
26389 | Yes, dear, but suppose-- suppose something happened? 26389 You men- folks like''em, too?" |
26389 | A bear hunt? |
26389 | Ai n''t he cute?" |
26389 | Ai n''t it awful solemn in such woods in the night- time? |
26389 | Ai n''t she the best ever?" |
26389 | Ai n''t that great? |
26389 | Ai n''t these the heaviest plates and cups you ever saw? |
26389 | Ai n''t you nowise curious to hear how Netty passed the night?" |
26389 | Alfy leapt from her little bed with an answering cry, frightened by Dorothy''s screech, and hurriedly demanding:"Why-- why-- what?" |
26389 | All right, everybody? |
26389 | All the rest afraid, too? |
26389 | All the white tents on the campus and the darling boys walking about in their white--""Nighties?" |
26389 | An Indian is an Indian, is n''t he? |
26389 | And are n''t we happy? |
26389 | And how long at a time does a fellow keep at it? |
26389 | And say, did anybody ever hear of such a thing before?" |
26389 | And what her father-- could he see his madcap at that moment? |
26389 | And, in any case, what better amusement could you have? |
26389 | Anybody want to go in with me on this deal? |
26389 | Are you crazy? |
26389 | At which the girl also laughed and turned to Jim, asking:"What does he say? |
26389 | Brainy? |
26389 | But Matty did it real cute, after all, did n''t he? |
26389 | But as they passed a room just beyond Leslie''s own, he poked his head through the window, to demand of Mateo, lying within:"Any better, boy?" |
26389 | But do n''t you like it? |
26389 | But suppose it_ had_ been a real one-- would it have eaten us up?" |
26389 | But tell me, what shall I call you?" |
26389 | But this thing I''m on-- Call this a horse? |
26389 | But was n''t he just grand-- and hideous?" |
26389 | But when silence followed Leslie impatiently inquired:"Well, why do n''t you?" |
26389 | But why? |
26389 | By the way, Wunny, when did you empty the nest?" |
26389 | CHAPTER VII A RIFLE PRACTICE"Mother, what do you mean? |
26389 | Ca n''t you think anything, see anything but-- stones? |
26389 | Can I run there quick? |
26389 | Can bears-- open-- open-- things?" |
26389 | Can you bring me some water? |
26389 | Can you ride a horse, Little One?" |
26389 | Captain Lemuel, please saddle Azul for Jim Barlow, and, Daniel, will you use him, please, till Jim comes back?" |
26389 | Captain saluted his"chief"and replied, a trifle testily:"That''s what I have been doin''for a purty consid''able spell, ai n''t it, Boss?" |
26389 | Clever? |
26389 | Could I, as a gentleman, let you ride off alone on a lonely road at night? |
26389 | Could a fowl, free from an evil spirit, so conduct itself? |
26389 | Did I hurt you? |
26389 | Did n''t Leslie tell you?" |
26389 | Did n''t you know a thing about it, Dolly Doodles?" |
26389 | Did n''t you understand? |
26389 | Did you ever see such a sleepy head, Nell?" |
26389 | Did you ever wear an Indian costume?" |
26389 | Did you think they was from the Plains?" |
26389 | Did you understand?" |
26389 | Do n''t s''pose with all them men around they''d have let it live very long? |
26389 | Do n''t suppose your folks''d eat a bigger mess''n that, do you? |
26389 | Do n''t you know how to set a table yet, great girl like you? |
26389 | Do n''t you know how to treat a lady?" |
26389 | Do you know those poor lambs have to change their white suits every day? |
26389 | Do you know when your shirt''s buttoned or when it ai n''t? |
26389 | Do you know where he is? |
26389 | Do you know where they are?" |
26389 | Do you know, Papa is getting quite anxious for a stock farm? |
26389 | Do you know-- do you?--where that other hotel is, that Metropolitan?" |
26389 | Do you s''pose I''ll desert her? |
26389 | Do you s''pose I''ll ever do it again?" |
26389 | Do you want something?" |
26389 | Does n''t it, Miss Dorothy?" |
26389 | Donde?_"Dorothy stared at him, then put her hands on each side his chubby face and kissed him. |
26389 | Dorothy listened, asking questions now and then, and finally inquired:"Is this Alaric an Indian?" |
26389 | Eh, Alfy? |
26389 | Eh, Little One? |
26389 | Eh, what? |
26389 | Eh?" |
26389 | Either that-- or-- are you quite sure that no practical joke has been played by any of the boys-- or by yourselves?" |
26389 | Even my father--""Never mind him, then, but tell me how in the world you happened to come just here and now?" |
26389 | Fast? |
26389 | Ford?" |
26389 | Ford?" |
26389 | Ford?" |
26389 | Ford?" |
26389 | Girths tight? |
26389 | Gone to raisin''sheep, have ye? |
26389 | Have n''t I, with my nerves, lived through that ride? |
26389 | He laid his hand upon her head and gently asked:"Was he your brother, little girl?" |
26389 | He looked to the sympathetic girl as if he were very tired and, leaving the rest, she crossed to him and asked:"Who are you, little boy? |
26389 | He recognized Dorothy as the girl to whom he had given his pet lamb and promptly demanded:"_ El cordero? |
26389 | He tried to speak and after several efforts succeeded in asking, audibly:"Where am I?" |
26389 | He will probably be found near at hand, although--""Has n''t he been looked for''near at hand,''then, dear Gray Lady?" |
26389 | He-- When he had reached this point, Alfy shook him demanding:"What makes you such a fool, Wunny? |
26389 | Hear me, Dorothy Doodles?" |
26389 | Hear me? |
26389 | How could I when she came from Jim?" |
26389 | How dared they give me such a thing?" |
26389 | How did you do it, child? |
26389 | How did you get so far away from''em, alone?" |
26389 | How in my senses have you all got away out here to this jumpin''off place of all creation? |
26389 | How in the world did I ever fancy it? |
26389 | How many have you found?" |
26389 | How many will the first buckboard carry?" |
26389 | How much of all that stuff do you really want?" |
26389 | How much''ll you take for her, cooky? |
26389 | How soon do you leave, Mr. Ford? |
26389 | How tell whether a horse is groomed or is n''t?" |
26389 | How''d he come by them? |
26389 | How''s Ma Babcock? |
26389 | How''s Melvin?" |
26389 | How''s Pa? |
26389 | How''s every single one the precious folks up- mounting? |
26389 | However, neither the cabman nor Leslie accepted their offering, and the latter exclaimed:"Ai n''t this rippin''? |
26389 | I can''t-- how can I?--let her go alone?" |
26389 | I have n''t anybody but Jim, that has known me always, seems if, and-- and dear Doctor, wo n''t you please, please find him?" |
26389 | I-- I love you best of all the world, so why should n''t we keep together?" |
26389 | If I had shot him instead of his clothes what would they have done to me? |
26389 | If you thought about me why did n''t you come back to look for me?" |
26389 | If you wo n''t go, will you send somebody?" |
26389 | Is it a surprise? |
26389 | Is it so? |
26389 | Is n''t it fine of Mrs. Roderick to get a meal this time of night, or day, or whatever hour it is?" |
26389 | Is n''t it past breakfast time?" |
26389 | Is n''t there something I-- we-- can do to help you off? |
26389 | Is that your pert valet laid up in yon? |
26389 | Is there a doctor here?" |
26389 | It''s all settled, is n''t it? |
26389 | It''s kindness to let him alone and--"Dolly looked serious and shook her head while Monty again demanded:"Have you heard about Wun Sing''s hen?" |
26389 | Kind of takes a feller''s breath away, do n''t it?" |
26389 | Lady Gray, will you practice with us?" |
26389 | Lessen a little tenderfoot like-- Why, what''s he down for? |
26389 | Like to see where the boys hang out? |
26389 | Mattie put her arms akimbo and stared; then demanded, in turn:"Ca n''t you do anything sensibler than''whip''cream? |
26389 | May I go to the doctor?" |
26389 | Maybe, too, who knows? |
26389 | Miss Milliken, did you ever''cross the plains''before?" |
26389 | Money? |
26389 | Mr. Ford started off at a brisk pace, the young folks trying to equal his long strides, and Alfaretta asking:"Is that cripple crazy? |
26389 | No? |
26389 | Nobody could; eh, what?" |
26389 | Nor one that was n''t living?" |
26389 | Now why?" |
26389 | Now, Captain, ca n''t we go on and find out what wonderful thing is hidden in that corral behind these Barracks?" |
26389 | Now-- here she goes:''Three Blind Mice-- Three Blind Mice-- For mercy''s sake, Helena Montaigne, why do n''t you take it up? |
26389 | Now-- when do you start? |
26389 | Odd, is n''t it? |
26389 | Or father? |
26389 | Or is it my own impatience?" |
26389 | Or try to overtake the others?" |
26389 | Ride, eh? |
26389 | Robson?" |
26389 | Says--"Dorothy looked up from her own task to ask:"Why should he let you buy it then?" |
26389 | See how it shines? |
26389 | Shall I carry it?" |
26389 | Shall we go back? |
26389 | She ended with the question:"Will you go back with me now, Jim? |
26389 | Silver? |
26389 | Sort of needs washin'', do n''t it? |
26389 | Stirrups to suit? |
26389 | Suppose we get old Lem to go with us into the mountains yonder and look for Jim?" |
26389 | That I love best of all the world? |
26389 | That fur away?" |
26389 | That she who so longed to have this home and so enjoyed it should have to leave it to us, a lot of strange youngsters, to use instead?" |
26389 | The Mexican flushed and sighed:"It is that_ el señor_ is not well,_ si_?" |
26389 | The schoolma''am lady, for instance?" |
26389 | The visitors had smiled, too, but with amusement at this odd old ranchman''s discipline; and Monty had whispered:"What makes''em put up with it? |
26389 | Then turning toward Monty, valiantly struggling with this new business, he inquired in real kindness:"Want me to lend a hand, youngster?" |
26389 | They had been a little company of eight and because one was away should the seven be made to suffer? |
26389 | Though I suppose you''ll be willing, we, your guests, shall do as we please?" |
26389 | Tried it on himself?" |
26389 | Want the rest of those berries, girlie? |
26389 | Was he not a free- born American citizen, as good as could be found in all the country? |
26389 | Was it that scared you?" |
26389 | Was n''t he master at San Leon, now? |
26389 | Was that what the young señor had set his heart upon and been denied? |
26389 | Wasting the time when there''s so little of it? |
26389 | Well, Mrs. Ford, have you arranged the company?" |
26389 | Well, are you comin''or not?" |
26389 | Well, señor?" |
26389 | Were the three boys planning to steal off by themselves, despite Captain Lemuel''s warnings? |
26389 | Were they not to show Mr. Ford how well they could carry themselves? |
26389 | What can I do?" |
26389 | What do you say, folks? |
26389 | What do you say?" |
26389 | What does he want?" |
26389 | What does it all mean?" |
26389 | What does this mean? |
26389 | What had not Dolly been to him? |
26389 | What makes you ask?" |
26389 | What right has he to order them around?" |
26389 | What say?" |
26389 | What was that she was saying? |
26389 | What would Aunt Lucretia say? |
26389 | What you goin''to name your lamb, Little One?" |
26389 | What''d he mean by sellin''things to''Cookies''and what''s a''school- ma''am- racket''?" |
26389 | What''d the Boss say?" |
26389 | What''s the matter with the hen, anyway?" |
26389 | What''s the matter?" |
26389 | What''s the use of a ranch on the Rockies and not go bear hunting? |
26389 | What''s the use of making it a work day, then? |
26389 | What''s up, Boss?" |
26389 | What''s up, Sis?" |
26389 | What''s up?" |
26389 | What''s wrong with her, you think, Wunny?" |
26389 | What''s wrong? |
26389 | What''s your name?" |
26389 | What''tragedy''could have happened up here in this lovely place?" |
26389 | What-- here-- why? |
26389 | What-- was-- that?" |
26389 | What? |
26389 | Whenever had he used such an expression? |
26389 | Where are the others, do you think? |
26389 | Where can we look for Wunny? |
26389 | Where did you get that?" |
26389 | Where do you think that buckboard is?" |
26389 | Where is Leslie?" |
26389 | Where''d you find it?" |
26389 | Where?" |
26389 | Who are you?" |
26389 | Who could have sent it?" |
26389 | Who''d have believed it? |
26389 | Who''s afraid?" |
26389 | Why Netty, if you please?" |
26389 | Why did you, Leslie, run away into all that danger against my wishes?" |
26389 | Why do you do that?" |
26389 | Why does n''t he come in? |
26389 | Why should n''t I? |
26389 | Why should there be any difference? |
26389 | Why?" |
26389 | Why?" |
26389 | Why?" |
26389 | Will it please_ el señor_ to listen?" |
26389 | Will you all help me? |
26389 | Will you all take my dear husband''s words for a summer text and make life at this dear San Leon a synonym of''Peace and Good Will''?" |
26389 | Will you take it?" |
26389 | Will you?" |
26389 | Would I have been hung by the neck till you are dead and the Lord have mercy on your soul? |
26389 | Would I?" |
26389 | You do n''t? |
26389 | You knew you were going to an isolated ranch on a mountain, so how could you expect daily papers, visitors, and such things? |
26389 | You like to go along, Helena?" |
26389 | You wo n''t go, eh? |
26389 | _ Wo n''t_ you make them give me the right case?" |
26389 | _ Wun Sing?_ Why that was the name of Aunt Betty''s cook at_ El Paraiso_! |
26389 | could tell if that too studious youth were alive or dead? |
26389 | do you think so? |
26389 | how could I sleep so? |
26389 | is n''t this going to be just a glorious summer? |
26389 | is n''t this rippin''? |
26389 | shrieked the onlookers,"what have you done?" |
26389 | sir, have you found him?" |
26389 | where''s Dad?" |
26389 | you are, eh? |
41117 | And you ai n''t goin''to the gold mine after all? |
41117 | Beautiful, is n''t it, lad? 41117 But how happened you to call me that''Dorothy C.''as only my own people do? |
41117 | But, Alfaretta, do they always call you by your whole, full name? |
41117 | Can you speak freely before the little maid, John Chester? |
41117 | Coffee? 41117 Did Pa Babcock bring his dinner, Martha?" |
41117 | Do you mean that Miss Montaigne is willing, can afford, to provide food for a large company like that? 41117 Dolly Chester, what you thinkin''of? |
41117 | Easy as fallin''off a log, ai n''t it? |
41117 | Fun? 41117 Garden? |
41117 | Gold mine? 41117 Gold mine? |
41117 | Heard? 41117 How could he ever get cream enough to fill such a thing? |
41117 | How- do, Mis''Cecil? 41117 Jim Barlow, have you lost your tongue? |
41117 | Like them? 41117 Looks as if he might be, does n''t he? |
41117 | My little Dorothy, will you come to live with me, and become_ my_ adopted daughter? |
41117 | Over it? 41117 Per day, working on every consecutive day?" |
41117 | Rewrite it? 41117 Say they have n''t sold me that south meadow, do they, friend? |
41117 | See there? |
41117 | Seven fifty-- somebody higher? 41117 Shall we take the pony with us to the circus? |
41117 | Shall you see Mr. Sands again, to- night? |
41117 | Than he wo n''t be-- be murdered? |
41117 | The way to Seth''s shop? 41117 Think? |
41117 | Well, John, what is it? 41117 What you laughing at?" |
41117 | When do you want this picnic? |
41117 | When''s it comin''off? 41117 When? |
41117 | Where-- is-- Dorothy C.? |
41117 | Who''ll go first? |
41117 | Why not? 41117 Why not?" |
41117 | Why, Peter Piper, what you bringin''old Brindle up here for? 41117 Will you believe me-- he is not? |
41117 | Will you promise not to laugh nor-- nor disbelieve? |
41117 | Will you stay for supper, Mr. Babcock, or shall we take some other time for talking about business? |
41117 | Wo n''t you let Mr. Chester take your place in your carriage, Mr. Montaigne, and you walk alongside me? 41117 You wish to hire out?" |
41117 | You''do n''t see why,''Jim Barlow, I feel so worried over what Mrs. Calvert asked? 41117 _ You-- have?_""Often and often. |
41117 | ''Not for anything?'' |
41117 | ''Peter Piper,''are you? |
41117 | --that the man positively refused to take pay for his day''s labor, even though he can ill afford to lose his time? |
41117 | A big girl like you?" |
41117 | A dream misled him-- Thee has heard the story, John?" |
41117 | Advertised for a cow, did n''t you? |
41117 | After a moment of pondering he asked:"Why did n''t your folks see IT if you did?" |
41117 | Ai n''t it queer to be adopted? |
41117 | Ai n''t that queer? |
41117 | Ai n''t you glad you come?" |
41117 | Ai n''t you going to? |
41117 | Alfaretta faced about and keenly scrutinized Dorothy''s face, demanding:"You makin''fun, or not?" |
41117 | Amid the laugh that followed this sally a third man called over the wall from the road beyond:"Hello, mister? |
41117 | An''you stand aside, will you? |
41117 | And do n''t you know your own mountain neighbors? |
41117 | And is n''t Hannah the oddest for-- a cow? |
41117 | And what is a picnic, anyway?" |
41117 | Any ghost be_ harmless_?" |
41117 | Are n''t you a beauty? |
41117 | Are you alive? |
41117 | Are you ever whipped? |
41117 | Are you going to be happy there? |
41117 | Are you hurt?" |
41117 | As for harm-- has he harmed your garden by his presence? |
41117 | Besides, what would my friend Mrs. Calvert think if I deserted her in this base fashion? |
41117 | But Helena drew up with haughtiness, demanding:"What can you be thinking of, Herbert Montaigne? |
41117 | But can that little girl drive?" |
41117 | But whatever shall we do with a whole day?" |
41117 | But where was Dorothy-- who should have been foremost with sympathy and cheer? |
41117 | But who in the world would buy? |
41117 | But why are n''t you in there with all the others? |
41117 | But-- What are the other things you thought about, and made you laugh? |
41117 | CHAPTER XVII ON THE ROAD TO THE CIRCUS"Ai n''t this grand, Dorothy? |
41117 | Calvert?" |
41117 | Can nobody-- nobody save him?" |
41117 | Chester?" |
41117 | Come this way, wo n''t you, Mr.--Mr.--''Skyrie,''is it?" |
41117 | Comfortable, be ye? |
41117 | Contemplation of the creatures gave Martha great pleasure, till Dorothy suddenly propounded the question:"Who''s going to milk Hannah? |
41117 | Could any ghost be_ good_? |
41117 | Could she and Mrs. Calvert have been discussing her in this way? |
41117 | DOROTHY AT SKYRIE BY EVELYN RAYMOND ILLUSTRATED New York THE PLATT& PECK CO.[ Illustration:"HOW MUCH AM I BID FOR THE BEAUTIFUL CALICO PONY?"] |
41117 | Did I hear somebody bid seven dollars? |
41117 | Did Mrs. Calvert know? |
41117 | Did ever anybody see such a beautiful, beau- ti- ful spot as this? |
41117 | Did you come to breakfast, too? |
41117 | Did you ever go to one?" |
41117 | Did you ever see such beauties? |
41117 | Did you see the whole affair?" |
41117 | Do n''t ever let anybody else steal you away from me, will you? |
41117 | Do n''t you ever eat fish? |
41117 | Do n''t you like it? |
41117 | Do you find me right?" |
41117 | Do you know this boy?" |
41117 | Do you know who I am?" |
41117 | Do you know why?" |
41117 | Do you like to fish?" |
41117 | Do you remember that date? |
41117 | Do you sugar your strawberries in the dish? |
41117 | Do you think it is, Jim dear?" |
41117 | Do you wear that kind all the time? |
41117 | Do you-- does thee see my pretty pony? |
41117 | Dorothy Chester, where''s your good sense at? |
41117 | Eh, little Kit? |
41117 | Eh? |
41117 | Eighteen? |
41117 | Ever gather any water lilies?" |
41117 | Ever see one? |
41117 | Ever taste a planked shad?" |
41117 | First, see here?" |
41117 | Fried chicken? |
41117 | Fust off, Dorothy, will you correct me every time I use bad language?" |
41117 | Give me a job, wo n''t ye?" |
41117 | Go on with the ghost, will you?" |
41117 | Have the weeds grown faster or the vegetables less, because of his nightly visitations to it? |
41117 | Have you read it yet? |
41117 | He changed the subject and inquired:"If you seen IT, what did it look like?" |
41117 | He had returned sooner than was expected or desired, but could he relegate his own intelligent task to anybody else? |
41117 | He laughed and Dorothy clapped her hands, demanding:"What was he like? |
41117 | Hot? |
41117 | How can that be, since I came to Skyrie only last night? |
41117 | How can we feed so many people? |
41117 | How come dese yeah dogs done gone got dey chains broke? |
41117 | How could anybody fall upon stones in that way and not be injured? |
41117 | How dare you speak to me like that?" |
41117 | How dare you? |
41117 | How did you know that about the garden and the night- time? |
41117 | How did you know we were going to have one? |
41117 | How do you like Deerhurst? |
41117 | How feed them all? |
41117 | How in the world could our Dolly be a witness in any such affair? |
41117 | How much am I bid for the beautiful calico pony, beloved of a widow and orphans? |
41117 | How much do my parents owe you''on demand''?" |
41117 | How much?" |
41117 | How''d the trial go? |
41117 | How- de- do, Peter?" |
41117 | How- de- do? |
41117 | How- de- do?" |
41117 | How-- how come it?" |
41117 | How-- much?" |
41117 | I do n''t believe one advertisement in a country paper would cost a whole dollar: do you?" |
41117 | I have to believe my own eyes, have n''t I?" |
41117 | I never lived on a farm, you know, and enjoyed your advantages of knowledge: and, by the way, what will we do with the creatures when we get them? |
41117 | I s''pose you''ve been down to the gold mine, ai n''t you?" |
41117 | I say, how dare you knock me down like that? |
41117 | I suppose you''ve heard it, have n''t you?" |
41117 | I tell you, is n''t it a good thing the Lord sent us such a splendid day? |
41117 | I''ve done it now, have n''t I? |
41117 | I-- you''re not a goody- good girl nor a''fraid- cat, now are you?" |
41117 | I--_what shall we do_? |
41117 | Is breakfast ready? |
41117 | Is he one of the''men''you furnished for the day?" |
41117 | Is it another''sale''?" |
41117 | Is n''t he the sort of boy you like? |
41117 | Is n''t life a terrible, terrible perplexity?" |
41117 | Is n''t she the dearest? |
41117 | Is that what you were thinking, my dear? |
41117 | Is thee ready?" |
41117 | Is there any old lumber''round,''t you can spare?" |
41117 | Is there one on these premises? |
41117 | It was the presence of Mrs. Calvert which did the most for us, though the man has more sense than appeared, yesterday, else he wouldn''t-- Why, Jim? |
41117 | It''s ready, ai n''t it, Mis''Chester?" |
41117 | James? |
41117 | Jim always can do what he wants to do; and-- shall we never, never, have our breakfast? |
41117 | Jim, do you believe that Peter Piper is really harmless? |
41117 | Jimmy?" |
41117 | Know how to bound the states? |
41117 | Letter? |
41117 | Look at my hands, will you?" |
41117 | Lookin''for somethin''to put your money on? |
41117 | Martha, why did n''t you look? |
41117 | Masculine, feminine, or neuter?" |
41117 | May Dorothy Chester take your horse and wagon and drive me there?" |
41117 | May I call my darling calf Jewel? |
41117 | May I come and peel the potatoes for you?" |
41117 | Mr. Spence wheeled about and demanded in surprise:"What? |
41117 | Mrs. Calvert, have-- have you forgiven poor Jim for letting the dogs get away? |
41117 | Must I say second- hand or first- class? |
41117 | Must you work in the garden all the time? |
41117 | My paper, please? |
41117 | Never more than now when I wish you to tell me-- Did you rewrite that advertisement sent to the local newspaper yesterday?" |
41117 | Nineteen? |
41117 | No? |
41117 | Not even for a chance to sail along over a lovely piece of water, dabbling your hand in it, and pulling out great, sweet- smelling flowers? |
41117 | Now, do you believe?" |
41117 | Now, how to begin? |
41117 | Now, then, my Hannah, how do you find yourself?" |
41117 | On a day like this?" |
41117 | Or all three at one fell swoop? |
41117 | Or beef? |
41117 | Or enough water to keep it clean? |
41117 | Or will you risk another advertisement, compounded by yourself?" |
41117 | Please thank her for us and tell her that-- that-- Jim, would you like to change''bosses''and come to work for us at Skyrie?" |
41117 | Say, Dorothy? |
41117 | Say, Peter, did Seth Winters send you an''Brindle up here?" |
41117 | See all the berries I''ve picked you? |
41117 | See my arms? |
41117 | See them?" |
41117 | See this pretty little piebald mare? |
41117 | See? |
41117 | See? |
41117 | Set your dog on me, would you? |
41117 | Shall Dolly inquire?" |
41117 | Shall I sit by the roadside and ask every man who passes by if he wants to hire himself out''on shares''? |
41117 | Shall you have a chance to study some? |
41117 | She improved the occasion by calling his attention to Jewel:"See my calf? |
41117 | She''s a gossip, Betty is, and who so delightful to gossip with as an old man who''s known your whole life from A to izzard? |
41117 | Sir, are you a-- Socialist?" |
41117 | So you''ve come to the''Bee,''too, have you? |
41117 | So, I reckon I''d best go see if there''s a good stall in that old barn to put-- Say, Dorothy? |
41117 | Somebody dropped you, did n''t he? |
41117 | Swearing, you mean? |
41117 | That circus, too; shall you go to it, Jim? |
41117 | That hoss? |
41117 | That is-- have you got the money ready, to pay right now?" |
41117 | That there dog''ll get away, an''then what''ll happen?" |
41117 | That there sorrel? |
41117 | That truck o''his''n? |
41117 | That was a big letter that''hero''boy brought, was n''t it? |
41117 | That''s natural, is n''t it?" |
41117 | The latter safely reached Mr. Chester''s hands; but-- the Danes? |
41117 | The whole of Skyrie farm is bounded-- Ever study jogaphy? |
41117 | Thee may have heard that I like to acquire and hold land?" |
41117 | Then he asked:"What of Jim Barlow? |
41117 | Then thinking that this trio of Babcocks might have come upon an errand to Mrs. Chester, she inquired:"Did you want to see my mother?" |
41117 | Thirteen do I hear? |
41117 | Thirteen? |
41117 | This very last night that ever was; and talk about liking this ride? |
41117 | Twenty? |
41117 | Wagons, people, such a crowd-- tell me, John Chester,_ have you advertised again_? |
41117 | Was ever a Quaker really poor? |
41117 | Was he not still a man, with a clear head and infinite patience? |
41117 | Was he not, also, one of the family? |
41117 | Was it a''he''or a lady''haunt''? |
41117 | Was n''t it too bad? |
41117 | Was she not fourteen and, on state occasions, promoted to the dignity of having her abundant hair"done up"by her mother''s own hairdresser? |
41117 | We mean to explore that mine they call the''Folly,''and who knows? |
41117 | Well, am I to come to your picnic, or am I not, Miss Dorothy Chester?" |
41117 | Well, what?" |
41117 | What ails you, Dorothy?" |
41117 | What am I expected to provide as my share of the entertainment?" |
41117 | What are you laughing at?" |
41117 | What became of the cats? |
41117 | What could Mrs. Cecil do? |
41117 | What do you mean?" |
41117 | What do you think of that?" |
41117 | What does thee say?" |
41117 | What if his feet had failed him? |
41117 | What makes you so rough with them? |
41117 | What say, neighbors Chester? |
41117 | What shall we do about the Danes, Jim Barlow?" |
41117 | What shall you name your dear little pig? |
41117 | What sort of a''haunt''is it? |
41117 | What time more fitting to take a temporary leave of our dear Dorothy? |
41117 | What was it?" |
41117 | What will yours be?" |
41117 | What you goin''to name the critter, anyway?" |
41117 | What''s to hinder our doing it right now? |
41117 | What?" |
41117 | Whatever does that mean?" |
41117 | When do you get licked, yourself, Dorothy C.?" |
41117 | When''s your birthday?" |
41117 | When? |
41117 | Where do you suppose he is?" |
41117 | Where is she?" |
41117 | Where''s your dishpan at, Mis''Chester? |
41117 | Where, too, was Peter, the simple? |
41117 | Where? |
41117 | Which critter''ll you drive home, Dorothy? |
41117 | Which one did you say?" |
41117 | Who told you about me?" |
41117 | Who told you to?" |
41117 | Who was to give it? |
41117 | Why are you turning the runabout around to go back the way we came? |
41117 | Why did n''t I know enough to do that myself? |
41117 | Why did n''t you? |
41117 | Why do you suppose he did n''t come? |
41117 | Why hurry so? |
41117 | Why not drive there first and let Miss Helena rest awhile before going further?" |
41117 | Why should I? |
41117 | Why should he come by that road when he was due from another? |
41117 | Will you come?" |
41117 | Will you direct us to it?" |
41117 | Will you go?" |
41117 | Will you secure your greatly needed''hired man''and forever''lay the ghost''of Skyrie at one''fell swoop''?" |
41117 | Will you, if you get a chance?" |
41117 | Will you? |
41117 | Will you?" |
41117 | Would n''t that be fine? |
41117 | You can lead Ponce-- but why did you bring them? |
41117 | You can milk, of course?" |
41117 | You do n''t want to have me cruel, do you, Jim Barlow?" |
41117 | You fetched yours in a basket, did n''t you? |
41117 | You like flowers? |
41117 | You would n''t? |
41117 | You''ll recognize it when it does, and what shall I bring? |
41117 | You''re walking, I suppose? |
41117 | _ And_ eight dollars? |
41117 | _ May_ we begin?" |
41117 | _ Must_ we have a pig, father John?" |
41117 | _ you_ here, Winters? |
41117 | and me too? |
41117 | and shoes, too?" |
41117 | and this man,"Archibald Montaigne,"what did she know about such a person or any dogs which might have run into him? |
41117 | and where could it be most safely kept? |
41117 | and why was he not long ago transplanting those celery seedlings which she had directed him should be his first day''s labor? |
41117 | how can you joke? |
41117 | it''s a dear old world, is n''t it? |
41117 | of course; but do you really think I should n''t fear this one at all? |
41117 | only seven for such a beautiful Jewel and Daisy combined?" |
41117 | or dear little gentle chickens?" |
41117 | or let folks do it theirselves, like Mis''Judge Satterlee does? |
41117 | those rough planks covered with white linen? |
41117 | though, there_ are_ cows to the right of them, pigs underneath them, and horses-- did anybody ever see such a collection?" |
41117 | was that what she meant when she said a calf might turn into a colt? |
41117 | what can it mean? |
41117 | who''ll pay just thirteen unlucky dollars when they can buy a full- blooded bull calf for-- Fourteen, do I hear? |
41117 | would n''t keep visitin''ladies standing, would you?" |
41117 | you love to tease me, do n''t you? |
40300 | ''Girl''? 40300 Are you afraid of her? |
40300 | Bless yo''heart, Miss Betty, did you- all done ring dat bell? 40300 But--_what_? |
40300 | Ca n''t you sit down by me for company? 40300 Can it be morning already? |
40300 | Dat so, Miss Betty? 40300 Do n''t you? |
40300 | Do you mean, John, that you are losing the use of your feet? 40300 Does your foot hurt bad?" |
40300 | Girl, what''s your name? |
40300 | Half- way? 40300 Hard on her? |
40300 | Have you had your breakfast, too, Jim? |
40300 | Hey? 40300 Hey? |
40300 | Hey? 40300 His adopted daughter, Dorothy C. Have n''t you seen about her in the paper?" |
40300 | How long has Dorothy known this? |
40300 | How- d''ye- do, Mrs. Cecil? 40300 Hungry, Mabel Bruce? |
40300 | Indeed? 40300 Indeed? |
40300 | Johnnie, what was that I saw in your wife''s arms, as I drove by? |
40300 | Lawd, honey, Miss Betty, who- all''s sick? |
40300 | Leave you alone? 40300 My name, you mean? |
40300 | No news? |
40300 | No, sir, I did n''t, but there has to be a first time, a first one, to everything, does n''t there? 40300 Say, Jim, do you like me? |
40300 | Servant? 40300 Shall you be fool enough to take the youngster in, if nobody calls for it? |
40300 | So, so? 40300 Spigots? |
40300 | That man--_Smith_? 40300 Too much? |
40300 | Tu''n yet, Miss Betty? 40300 W- wh-- at?" |
40300 | Was that the day Mr. Chester was taken to the hospital? 40300 Well, what is it?" |
40300 | What I mean is-- can you walk, hoof it, good? 40300 What became of the little boy?" |
40300 | What''s the matter, I say? |
40300 | What''s your name? |
40300 | What-- who-- Where''s Johnnie? |
40300 | Where shall I put them? 40300 Where to? |
40300 | Where''s your celery at? |
40300 | Who is''he''? 40300 Who''s''him''? |
40300 | Why do n''t they go away? 40300 Why do n''t you leave her now?" |
40300 | Why do you do that, Jim? |
40300 | Why go so far, away from everybody we know and care for? 40300 Why, Tige, what''s that?" |
40300 | Why-- why-- what''s the matter with me? 40300 Will you help me get away from here, back to my home? |
40300 | Will-- we never--_never_ get there? |
40300 | Will_ you_ tell him or must_ I_? 40300 You leave to- morrow? |
40300 | You- all know how old yo''be, Miss Betty? |
40300 | You-- can? 40300 You-- you a big, grown- up woman, have to''obey''? |
40300 | Your father? 40300 ''D you say Eutaw Place, er Moun''Ver''n Avenoo? |
40300 | A fine digestion is another of my Father''s good gifts to me; and do you know, laddie, that I rarely have to buy the food to feed my guests? |
40300 | Again lying back upon her pillow, she smiled into the nurse''s face and asked:"What am I doing here, in a bed? |
40300 | Again the stranger demanded:"Who is that girl? |
40300 | Ai n''t you- all done bettah wait a little spell, an''''tend to him, yo''se''f? |
40300 | Allow me?" |
40300 | Already? |
40300 | Already? |
40300 | An''I come, ai n''t I? |
40300 | And had she forgotten that they had no money except his salary? |
40300 | And he retorted with equal spirit:"D''you s''pose I''d haul such a heavy creatur''''s you so fur on a wrong road?" |
40300 | And how is my little girl? |
40300 | And mother Martha have to give up her pretty house she loves so, and go away off to the country where she does n''t know anybody? |
40300 | And see? |
40300 | And that''s what mother means by paying for a quart and not getting a quart, is n''t it? |
40300 | And what is to become of this dear home?" |
40300 | And why on earth should I feel so sorry now for that woman in there? |
40300 | Are n''t you going to take him any of that nice ham? |
40300 | Are you hungry? |
40300 | Are you sure a message was sent to that man how I was waiting?" |
40300 | Are you sure, sure, Mr. Smith, that I am really an heiress and you will help me to get the money that belongs to me?" |
40300 | As she gazed in one direction for the sight of a blue gingham frock a cheerful voice called to her from another:"Howdy, Mis''Chester? |
40300 | At it again, giving the steps a more tombstone effect? |
40300 | Be you a good, free traveler?" |
40300 | But a girl ca n''t eat once and make it last all day, can she?" |
40300 | But dat yere plumber gempleman-- what erbout leabin''him, to go rummagin''''round, puttin''new fixin''s in whe''ol''ones do? |
40300 | But does yo''know, Miss Betty, erbout a man was sunstroke yestiddy, Baltimo''Street way? |
40300 | But her laugh was a nervous one and was instantly followed by the inquiry:"What-- what happened to the child?" |
40300 | But what for you- all done want Ephraim fotch de kerridge? |
40300 | But what, Miss Chester, put this notion into your head? |
40300 | But, my man? |
40300 | But-- why? |
40300 | But----""How long have you known about it?" |
40300 | By the way, is n''t it a case of poetic justice, that he should be thus innocently punished by the child he stole?" |
40300 | By the way, where''s Dorothy? |
40300 | CHAPTER VII AN OFFICE SEEKER AND A CLIENT"Well, little girl, what are you doing here?" |
40300 | CHAPTER XV THE FLIGHT IN THE NIGHT"What does it mean? |
40300 | Ca n''t I stir off these grounds unless somebody is ill? |
40300 | Can one of your''boys''wait on me and hand me my tools? |
40300 | Can we start now-- when she''s shut the door?" |
40300 | Can you remember to have had a blow, or a fall, lately?" |
40300 | Cayn''t yo''business be put off, Miss Betty?" |
40300 | Could one city be so big as this? |
40300 | Could you-- could you possibly spare time to help me?" |
40300 | Decently? |
40300 | Did ever brick pavements hurt anybody else as they were hurting her? |
40300 | Did father like his roses?" |
40300 | Did he fall? |
40300 | Did he hurt himself when he fell? |
40300 | Did n''t Ah done go promise yo''dyin''ma how''t Ah''t take ca''of you- all what''d nevah no sense to take ca''yo''self? |
40300 | Did n''t she go to market last night? |
40300 | Did n''t you get my message?" |
40300 | Did n''t you have your breakfast?" |
40300 | Did n''t you hear me ring?" |
40300 | Did white shoes always act that way? |
40300 | Did you ever hear of a little girl postman?" |
40300 | Did you go? |
40300 | Do n''t suppose she''s one to run away an''play with some the school children, do you?" |
40300 | Do n''t you know I''ve to go to market and you have the lunch to get? |
40300 | Do n''t you know me? |
40300 | Do n''t you remember? |
40300 | Do you know, Jim Barlow, that it seems longer than all the days put together since I saw my mother?" |
40300 | Do you know, already?" |
40300 | Do you know, does he know, that between you the law is broken? |
40300 | Do you mean''her''to be that dreadful woman?" |
40300 | Do you suppose we have come half- way yet?" |
40300 | Do you want both these spigots to have new washers on? |
40300 | Does he live here? |
40300 | Does n''t matter though, does it? |
40300 | Does nobody ever speak out loud?" |
40300 | Does she go every market day? |
40300 | Dorothy, have you come?" |
40300 | Drive on Sunday? |
40300 | Finally she asked:"Where is this house? |
40300 | Finished your beat already? |
40300 | For such a neighborly turn? |
40300 | For, even if there was hope that the postman might sometime recover, was he not still helpless in a hospital? |
40300 | From Union Station? |
40300 | God sent you, did n''t He?" |
40300 | Has''she''gone to market? |
40300 | Have some more ham, Mabel?" |
40300 | Have we come to it so soon and I not knowing? |
40300 | Have you learned anything?" |
40300 | Have you learned your lesson? |
40300 | Have you lost, or missed, him, dear?" |
40300 | He ai n''t got all his buttons----""Wh- a- t?" |
40300 | He hated to disappoint her, just yet, so asked with interest:"And who is Miss Georgia?" |
40300 | He here? |
40300 | He stood still, panting for breath, and Dorothy lifted her face which she had hidden on his shoulder and-- what was that the child was calling? |
40300 | He went to her and asked:"Feeling bad, Ma''am? |
40300 | He would do right, he must; but-- which was"the rightest right of them two"? |
40300 | Hear me?" |
40300 | Hear,''Mandy? |
40300 | Heiress? |
40300 | Hey, Miss Betty?" |
40300 | Hey?" |
40300 | His own beloved Mabel, ill at that moment with the measles, then epidemic-- what would life be worth without her? |
40300 | Horspittle? |
40300 | How could anybody hurt a girl who was worth five hundred dollars to somebody? |
40300 | How could you?" |
40300 | How dare he send you? |
40300 | How dare you-- anybody-- keep such dangerous creatures? |
40300 | How did this poor little darling ever hurt her tiny foot like that?" |
40300 | How else''d you go around? |
40300 | How far from Baltimore?" |
40300 | How is he doing? |
40300 | How long has she been gone?" |
40300 | How many dem wills has she had writ, a''ready, Dinah?" |
40300 | How many more blocks must she traverse before she came in sight of that wide Broadway with its pretty parks, on which the hospital stood? |
40300 | How, after all, could she enter and learn some dreadful truth? |
40300 | I beg your pardon, and-- May I have my father''s position?" |
40300 | I did n''t eat no noonin'', recollec''?" |
40300 | I must go to see John, this afternoon, too, and----""Martha Chester, have you had a bite to eat?" |
40300 | I wonder which way I must go? |
40300 | I''ll love to picnic out here, but how does it happen? |
40300 | I''ve always longed for pretty things, but-- call_ them_ pretty? |
40300 | I-- Can''t you hide me here, somewhere, and go on by yourself, then send somebody back after me? |
40300 | If they were going to walk, or run, as his talk about trying on rags suggested, how could they travel? |
40300 | In the cottage yonder? |
40300 | Is n''t she a funny old woman? |
40300 | Is n''t that what the Johns Hopkins doctors call the''country''?" |
40300 | Is she deaf and dumb-- or just a plain everyday fool?" |
40300 | Is that long boy your son? |
40300 | Is that woman going to market and not taking me, after all I begged her so?" |
40300 | Is this the hospital?" |
40300 | Is yo''feelin''po''ly again, honey?" |
40300 | Is-- is she sick? |
40300 | It is so good to be out of doors, and-- are you going to take me home, to- night, when you drive in?" |
40300 | It was n''t so much-- to some people-- but ten dollars? |
40300 | It''s perfectly horrible just to hear it, and what must it be to suffer it? |
40300 | John Chester''s little girl? |
40300 | Know wha''dem horspittles is for? |
40300 | Mabel was here yesterday, was n''t she?" |
40300 | May I ask you something?" |
40300 | May I get just what I like?" |
40300 | May I go talk to him? |
40300 | May I? |
40300 | May he show me the way home to Baltimore?" |
40300 | May n''t I see him just a minute, just one little minute,''fore this-- this queer sleepiness gets me?" |
40300 | Me? |
40300 | Mebbe-- Does dey put erbout makin''wills in de papahs, boy?" |
40300 | My sake, girls are orful silly, ai n''t they?" |
40300 | Nobody could n''t do more than that, could they?" |
40300 | Not so the detective, who quietly asked:"Who is this Mabel, and where can she be found?" |
40300 | Now ai n''t I brought you the greatest luck? |
40300 | Now, will you go to sleep?" |
40300 | One mile-- did I say a half? |
40300 | Or did dat Methusalem done it, fo''mischievousness?" |
40300 | Or of that glad reunion with these old friends and neighbors, when Dorothy was once more in their arms, who could fitly tell? |
40300 | Or turn her over to the police to care for, Martha dear?" |
40300 | Pay? |
40300 | Queer, is n''t it? |
40300 | Really, as you said?" |
40300 | Say, Jim, were you afraid you''d''catch''the measles? |
40300 | See, see? |
40300 | See?" |
40300 | Send her to an Orphanage, ourselves? |
40300 | Servant, do you mean?" |
40300 | Shall I call somebody?" |
40300 | Shall I help you to sit up?" |
40300 | She put her white hand to her head in a confused way and returned:"Bad? |
40300 | She stopped Jim as he was moving away and demanded:"Are you ready? |
40300 | She stopped short and addressed the misbehaving members in her sternest tones:"What''s the matter with you to make you hurt so? |
40300 | She was fast drowsing off again, but roused for an instant to ask:"Have you seen my father? |
40300 | Since when have we got so top- lofty?" |
40300 | So what''s the use of writing? |
40300 | Spigots?" |
40300 | Suppose the stuff kills him? |
40300 | Tell-- talk-- why ca n''t you? |
40300 | That man in the wheeled chair, risking his neck to hasten your meeting? |
40300 | The little stone cottage on a rock, half- hidden in vines, empty for years, and now-- Who is that upon its threshold? |
40300 | The more I work the longer I may work, eh? |
40300 | The sight of him amused the plumber and called forth from his mistress the question:"Did anybody ever see such a woe- begone infant? |
40300 | The usual shutting- off, Ma''am?" |
40300 | The very next time you go to market? |
40300 | Then she at once stood up, said something to Jim, and hurried to the house: demanding, as she reached it and with evident alarm:"What''s the matter?" |
40300 | Then she turned away, but Dorothy reached forward, caught the blue denim skirt, and demanded:"Tell me where my mother is? |
40300 | Then some evil thing tempted her to ask:"Do you know where you''re going, Jim Barlow, anyway?" |
40300 | Then there''s that class picnic of yours, and what on earth will Miss Georgia say if you do n''t go this time? |
40300 | Then we came to the door and saw you were both outdoors, so there could n''t have been, could there? |
40300 | Then, as if forcing herself to an interest in small, home matters, she asked:"Were you very lonely after she went?" |
40300 | Think you''ll know us when you see us agin?" |
40300 | This woman did shrink, yet how could it be from fear of infection to herself? |
40300 | Time to get up, already?" |
40300 | To Lexington, or Hollins, or Richmond-- which? |
40300 | Try?" |
40300 | Was it just to learn how to plant things? |
40300 | Was n''t Mabel''s visit a pleasant one? |
40300 | Was n''t this a chance to steal away and start for home? |
40300 | Was there a reproof in this? |
40300 | Well, how''s the girl? |
40300 | Wha''for?" |
40300 | What are they, pray, to make you look so serious?" |
40300 | What are you idling like that for? |
40300 | What childless, child- loving man could help doing so, beholding the pretty sight before him? |
40300 | What did happen to him, anyway? |
40300 | What did he say?" |
40300 | What do you mean, then, by''girl''?" |
40300 | What has happened? |
40300 | What in the world will a postman do without his sound feet and as sound a pair of legs above them?" |
40300 | What is about the milk?" |
40300 | What makes some of the women dress all in white and some in blue? |
40300 | What of it?" |
40300 | What possesses you to be always under foot? |
40300 | What salary do you get?" |
40300 | What say, sister, to that notion?" |
40300 | What shall we do about her? |
40300 | What would anybody want to nail an inside window tight for? |
40300 | What you mean?" |
40300 | What you say?" |
40300 | What you want to see him for?" |
40300 | What''s her name?" |
40300 | What''s that? |
40300 | What''s to be done? |
40300 | What''s wantin'', Miss Betty? |
40300 | What''s yo''''pinion now, Ephraim, boy?" |
40300 | What''s yourn?" |
40300 | What- all be dey like?" |
40300 | What? |
40300 | Wheah yo''live at? |
40300 | When we live in the country may I have all the flowers I want?" |
40300 | Where am I? |
40300 | Where are you, dearest father?" |
40300 | Where did you get her? |
40300 | Where is my mother?" |
40300 | Where we are going and when? |
40300 | Where''d you two come from?" |
40300 | Where''s Dorothy C.?" |
40300 | Where''s your cleanin''things, Mis''Chester?" |
40300 | Where? |
40300 | Who could it be? |
40300 | Who is that little girl?" |
40300 | Who that dainty little woman flying down the path to clasp you in her arms? |
40300 | Who told you? |
40300 | Who''s going to live here? |
40300 | Who''s''him''? |
40300 | Who-- who-- can have sent her?" |
40300 | Whose is it?" |
40300 | Why should I come here to this old truck- farm and a horrid woman and a horrider man and get the measles and give them to him? |
40300 | Why should she bother with anybody in such a different state of life? |
40300 | Why should she imagine it? |
40300 | Why, Dinah?" |
40300 | Why, my dear young lady, how am I ever to do you any good if you mistrust me so on such slight grounds?" |
40300 | Why, since when have you taken to wearing slippers so much too big for you? |
40300 | Why, too, should my father John be let to get an''ataxious''something in his legs, so he had to lose his place? |
40300 | Why- all cayn''t yo''eat yo''breakfast in de house, propah, like a Christian, Miss Betty?" |
40300 | Why? |
40300 | Why?" |
40300 | Will he be there long? |
40300 | Will it never, never end? |
40300 | Will she need it, do you think?" |
40300 | Will that do?" |
40300 | With a little exclamation of distress, she put her hand on the painful spot, and the attendant quickly asked:"Does that hurt you? |
40300 | With a little waning of hope-- the postmaster had been so delightful that she was already sure he would grant her request-- she asked:"Is it bad? |
40300 | Wo n''t you answer?" |
40300 | Would it be safe, do you think?" |
40300 | Would n''t it do just to go to some little spot right near Baltimore, where we could come into the city on the cars, at any time? |
40300 | Would n''t that be just lovely? |
40300 | Yet, once in the carriage, with his useless legs stretched out before him, he suddenly demanded:"Why, where''s my girl? |
40300 | You ca n''t? |
40300 | You never have burglars in this out- of- the- way place, do you? |
40300 | You there, too, John? |
40300 | You wo n''t? |
40300 | You''ll let me go home to her, wo n''t you? |
40300 | Younkers, where''d you hail from? |
40300 | Your father''s home Sundays, too, is n''t he?" |
40300 | _ Why?_ An orphan foundling like me-- what should anybody steal me away from my home for? |
40300 | _ Why?_ An orphan foundling like me-- what should anybody steal me away from my home for? |
40300 | and Tiger''s growl made a trio of sounds in the silent house: to which he promptly added his question:"Huh? |
40300 | and why should a pretty little girl be crying on the first Sunday morning in June? |
40300 | and with a crispness that might easily hurt his business, he demanded:"Do you think a hundred dollars too much to pay for the life of a child?" |
40300 | and, Jim, what makes you so sober? |
40300 | please, where_ is_ my father?" |
40300 | there followed the fumbling of somebody with the door''s button, she sprang to her feet and asked:"That you, Jim? |
40300 | what will my mother think of my staying away like this? |
40300 | where are you? |
40300 | why should n''t I want to earn the money for my parents? |
40300 | you awake?" |
28805 | ''If Rider Haggard had been Lew Wallace, what would''She''have been?'' |
28805 | A man? 28805 All ready, all?" |
28805 | An''waste Mrs. Calvert''s good money, whilst there''s a lot of idlers on her premises, eatin''her out of house and home? 28805 And leave the house wide open this way?" |
28805 | Are you going back there? |
28805 | Are you sorry you started the affair, Dolly Doodles? 28805 Are you sure she is n''t in her room?" |
28805 | But how can we? 28805 But how could her heart, the heart of any woman, remain hard against the sight of her orphan grandchildren?" |
28805 | But if those children are his grandchildren, what are they doing here? |
28805 | But the wool? 28805 But to miss the Fair? |
28805 | But where will you get chicken to fry? |
28805 | But who did solve the silly thing, first off? |
28805 | Can Alfy drive-- safe? |
28805 | Could Luna have stolen it, that foolish one? |
28805 | Cuanto? 28805 Dear Aunt Betty, will you do this for a man you do not like?" |
28805 | Dear Mr. Seth, you love my darling Aunt Betty, too, do n''t you, like everybody does? |
28805 | Did ever you see eyes so bright? 28805 Did he know Rose?" |
28805 | Did n''t she ride home with_ you_? |
28805 | Did n''t you? |
28805 | Did you get it back, lad? |
28805 | Do n''t you change it no more, then, Dorothy C.? |
28805 | Do n''t you know how much curiosity I have? 28805 Do you know the owner?" |
28805 | Do you mean it, Dorothy C.? |
28805 | Do you not? 28805 Do you suppose it blew out of the window and she picked it up?" |
28805 | Does he know? 28805 Dolly, shall you go to The Towers, to see that Montaigne girl?" |
28805 | Ever hear the story of General Lafayette and this creek, Melvin? |
28805 | Go? 28805 Have n''t I? |
28805 | Helena and Melvin? 28805 Helena home? |
28805 | How can it come right? 28805 How could you?" |
28805 | How do you know, Dorothy? |
28805 | How many did you use? |
28805 | How many girls now, Alfy? |
28805 | How? |
28805 | I wonder what it was he told him? |
28805 | I? 28805 Indeed? |
28805 | Is it something Dorothy may hear? |
28805 | Is n''t that Mr. Shelton''s horse? |
28805 | It was n''t your flesh, was it? |
28805 | It''s real purty in here, ai n''t it? 28805 Killing generally does mean death, Jim Barlow, but if you knew that splendid tree was bound to fall some day why did n''t you say so? |
28805 | Leah-- that''s Luna? 28805 Miss Greatorex? |
28805 | Next? |
28805 | Now which shall I fit first? |
28805 | Say, sonny, what made you tumble in the brook? 28805 So the farrier has been talking, eh? |
28805 | So you asked him for a lift down? |
28805 | That bunch? 28805 That man? |
28805 | Then you come from Rosado? |
28805 | They''ve found their own place you see; will it do? |
28805 | This morning, Aunt Betty, in all this rain? 28805 Tramps? |
28805 | Well, why do n''t you get a regular woodman to chop it up, then? |
28805 | Were n''t you scared? 28805 What all shall we cook? |
28805 | What are those men doing to the roof? |
28805 | What in the world do you want of a rope? |
28805 | What is it men and women all despise, Yet one and all so highly prize? 28805 What makes thee think he is unhappy?" |
28805 | What should I be afraid of? 28805 What''s up, boys?" |
28805 | What''s yours, twinsy? 28805 What''they,''Miss Molly?" |
28805 | What? 28805 Where do you come from?" |
28805 | Where''d they pick up two such little owls? 28805 Which one? |
28805 | Who is Luna? 28805 Who left that gate open? |
28805 | Who''s for church? |
28805 | Who''s she? 28805 Whose''Party''is this?" |
28805 | Why do you fancy anything''s amiss, lassie? |
28805 | Why do you leave yours, to sleep on the library couch, Ephraim? |
28805 | Why do you stop just there, Jim, in the most interesting part? 28805 Why not? |
28805 | Why, Aunt Betty, please? 28805 Why, Mr. Seth, what do you mean? |
28805 | Why, would anybody be afraid in a big tent like this? |
28805 | Why? 28805 With what, Dolly dear? |
28805 | With whom did you ride? |
28805 | Wo n''t the horses be afraid? 28805 Your horse?" |
28805 | ''Now, who''ll take that to the mill?'' |
28805 | ''Twill be over in a minute, soon''s we get to the inside and have-- you-- got-- your ticket?" |
28805 | A blessing, Dorcas said? |
28805 | A child yourself?" |
28805 | Afterward, we might have a little dance in the barn-- May we, may we?" |
28805 | Ai n''t they beautiful? |
28805 | Ai n''t you ashamed of yourself, Alfy Babcock? |
28805 | And apropos of that subject: What''s the oldest, most unalterable book of etiquette we have?" |
28805 | And how came you with Oliver Sands? |
28805 | And if you do, what shall I say to them for you?" |
28805 | And there, Luna dear, poor Luna, you see we''re off at last and-- isn''t it just lovely?" |
28805 | And when the neighbors ask:''Whose children has thee found?'' |
28805 | And why? |
28805 | And-- is Leah here?" |
28805 | Anybody could spend a night here and take no hurt, could n''t she?" |
28805 | Anybody got a ribbon? |
28805 | Anybody got a rope?" |
28805 | Are n''t you the one who always plans the entertainments-- the social ones-- at your school, Brentnor Hall? |
28805 | Are n''t you?" |
28805 | Are tramps on this mountain? |
28805 | Are we never to hear the end of Oliver Sands? |
28805 | Are you down in the dumps, too? |
28805 | Are you in trouble? |
28805 | Are you really goin''to take that loony Luna to meeting?" |
28805 | As for you, Cousin Seth, what has so wearied you? |
28805 | At that''heavenly''place? |
28805 | Baby, which are you?" |
28805 | Baby, which are_ you_?" |
28805 | Beg pardon, girlie, I do n''t want to be cross, but how can I have a decent party if you do n''t help? |
28805 | Besides, her quick ear had caught that"Luna,"and she now impatiently demanded:"Howcome you''knows he''name, Miss Do''thy, an''nebah tole ole Dinah?" |
28805 | But the ten crisp notes she had so spread out in the sight of all-- where were they? |
28805 | But there was one more objector and that outspoken Alfy, who begged of Dorothy, in a sibilant whisper:"Do you mean it? |
28805 | But they had scarcely cleared the grounds when Molly Martin paused to ask:"Where''s Jane Potter?" |
28805 | But, alanna, what''d this big house be widout''em and their pranks?" |
28805 | But, why hesitate? |
28805 | But-- is there a little old woman here, no bigger than a child? |
28805 | By the way, where are they now?" |
28805 | Ca n''t help it, do n''t you know?" |
28805 | Can I have that? |
28805 | Can I help you?" |
28805 | Can I help?" |
28805 | Can thee afford to waste time like this?" |
28805 | Can you?" |
28805 | Cried she, with that characteristic toss of her brown curls:"Well, if everybody_ must_--what can I do to help? |
28805 | Did anybody ever happen to hear of the Sphinx?" |
28805 | Did n''t you feel as if some enemy were after you?" |
28805 | Did you ever see the beat? |
28805 | Did you have any supper?" |
28805 | Did you think I might be dead, then? |
28805 | Do n''t you know this is Sunday?" |
28805 | Do n''t you like the arrangement?" |
28805 | Do n''t you remember how ill they were from Molly''s supply? |
28805 | Do n''t you remember? |
28805 | Do n''t you think they''re lovely, Littlejohn?" |
28805 | Do you know how she makes jelly?" |
28805 | Do you want to keep me awake all night?" |
28805 | Does n''t it seem too bad to leave her out of this?" |
28805 | Does that mean you want to do so now?" |
28805 | Dolly squeezed herself after and stooped above her guest, anxiously asking:"Did that hurt you? |
28805 | Fact, I''d_ admire_, only if I put on my best dress to go callin''in the morning what''ll I have left to wear to the Party? |
28805 | Finally, a stable lad had suddenly propounded the inquiry:"What did you do with that money, anyway, Ephy? |
28805 | Finally, as he lapsed into a reverie she roused him, saying:"What is your errand, please?" |
28805 | Fo''de lan'', Missy, whe''-all''s yo''pride an''mannehs?" |
28805 | Has n''t he come, too?" |
28805 | Has she told you how the twins came here?" |
28805 | Have n''t you seen? |
28805 | Have you done that, then? |
28805 | Have you settled on the play? |
28805 | He was as anxious now to release her as she was to be set free, but his tormentors insisted:"Her name? |
28805 | He was not a superstitious man but he had dreamed of Deerhurst more than once of late and news from Deerhurst? |
28805 | Hear what the Master said? |
28805 | Here, boy, fetch them peanuts this way? |
28805 | Hey, honey? |
28805 | How about you, Littlejohn Smith?" |
28805 | How came she here? |
28805 | How can she do a thing like that?" |
28805 | How can we ever take them in that stage with us?" |
28805 | How come dat yeah-- dis-- What''s hit mean, li''l gal Do''thy?" |
28805 | How could it be like that, then?" |
28805 | How could we do otherwise? |
28805 | How dare you say such a thing?" |
28805 | How ever in this world? |
28805 | How it was mighty easy to start a panic but impossible to stop one, or nigh so? |
28805 | How much do telegrams cost?" |
28805 | How much for him?" |
28805 | How shall eight people be conveyed to that far- away church?" |
28805 | How should I? |
28805 | Hungry, say you? |
28805 | I love young people; and am I not quite a young person myself?" |
28805 | I meant to stay a bit longer out of business, but-- Mrs. Calvert, when''s the next train cityward, please?" |
28805 | I saw no other person anywhere about, did you?" |
28805 | I wonder if we ought to advertise her in the local newspaper? |
28805 | I wonder what?" |
28805 | If I should bring her back to it, would you let her go out of it sometimes, into the world where she belongs? |
28805 | If I would bring her back?" |
28805 | If he were human where could he go? |
28805 | In other words:"Did she send the money?" |
28805 | Indeed, when there came a knock on the outer door he started, and quickly demanded:"Well?" |
28805 | Inviting them south- siders that made such a lot of trouble when you lived''up- mounting''afore your folks leased their farm?" |
28805 | Is n''t it lovely to be a rich girl and just ask for as much money as you want and get it? |
28805 | Is she here? |
28805 | Is she lost again?" |
28805 | Is she safe?" |
28805 | Is telephoning cheaper? |
28805 | It''s better for them and we should n''t have been let anyway, and-- where''s Helena?" |
28805 | It''s getting real near breakfast time; and dear Aunt Betty, will you please send me another one hundred dollars by the return of the mail? |
28805 | James was listening now and inquired:"What you raking up old times for, Dorothy? |
28805 | Jolly Molly, and Jim to drive? |
28805 | Just as this was Dorothy''s and somebody else managed it; eh, lassie? |
28805 | May I keep them here? |
28805 | May I, please?" |
28805 | Meanwhile, what had this rainy day seen at Heartsease Farm? |
28805 | Molly M. How''d you look, rockin''along on that old mare? |
28805 | Monty is in a fix-- how shall we get him out?" |
28805 | Monty, will you ride to the village and send that telegram to Mabel Bruce?" |
28805 | Most of you know it by sight; eh?" |
28805 | Mouths so wide agape? |
28805 | Mrs. Calvert looked keenly into her darling''s eyes, and after a moment, answered:"I might be willing; but should you desert your guests? |
28805 | Next?" |
28805 | Next?" |
28805 | Nobody, of course, except Alfaretta, and the first thing that girl would be sure to ask would be:"Have you caught your hare?" |
28805 | Now, who''ll accept? |
28805 | Now-- see the pretty horses?" |
28805 | Oliver, does thee hear? |
28805 | Oliver,_ did thee know Rose?_"This was the"plain speech"with a vengeance! |
28805 | On yo''way dar, sah?" |
28805 | Or a little play in the big barn?" |
28805 | Or, do you think it would be kinder to wait and let her people hunt her up? |
28805 | Or-- was it Ananias? |
28805 | Ought you? |
28805 | Partings? |
28805 | Preferred to chop wood, did he? |
28805 | Problem: If a small school dictionary can work such havoc with a young maid''s brain will the Unabridged drive her to a lunatic asylum? |
28805 | Remember how she clung to those bits of gay rags Dinah found on her? |
28805 | Satisfactory all round?" |
28805 | Saturday would be a nice time to begin the Party, do n''t you all think?" |
28805 | See Sapphi-- Ruth, see them stairs? |
28805 | See? |
28805 | See? |
28805 | Sensible, but not too- sensitive, Alfaretta shook her head, and asked:"Do you know how to make a hare pie?" |
28805 | Shall I tell it?" |
28805 | She does n''t look like either-- is she sleep- walking? |
28805 | Six boys-- how many yet Alfy?" |
28805 | Snoring? |
28805 | So gently Dolly moved that he did not hear her, and she had gone around him to stand before his face ere he looked up and said:"Thee? |
28805 | So, as she bade him good- night she asked:"Is it anything I can help, dear Master?" |
28805 | Somebody breathing? |
28805 | Supposing somebody had stolen in and stolen them? |
28805 | Supposing that was why he was sleeping in the library? |
28805 | Tell me, quick, quick; and if you know her home?" |
28805 | That fellow? |
28805 | That is n''t dividing even; and if it''s such an awful long way had n''t we-- shouldn''t-- shan''t we be terrible late to dinner?" |
28805 | That plain old white linen? |
28805 | That''s what society is for, is what it means, is n''t it? |
28805 | The scene at Heartsease? |
28805 | Thee is the little girl that''s had such a story- paper kind of life, is n''t thee? |
28805 | Then I asked:''How much will you pay, Friend Oliver, toward the support of Hiram Bowen at St. Michael''s Hospital?'' |
28805 | Then he scratched his head and asked in a whisper:"Can you tell who she looks like? |
28805 | Then, course, you would n''t leave them just anywhere, out of doors, would you? |
28805 | Thence it was presently lifted, when Mrs. Calvert said:"Now the lost is found, I''d like to inquire what shall be done with it? |
28805 | There was a swift exchange of glances between him and the young hostess as she returned:"Shall I say?" |
28805 | This is exceedingly painful to hear, but to what does it tend?" |
28805 | Those grapes knew that you wanted them, that I wanted to get them for you, and see how they act? |
28805 | To see me? |
28805 | Until Mabel Bruce suddenly demanded:"Where''s their other clothes?" |
28805 | Well, Dorothy, what is it? |
28805 | Well, Mabel? |
28805 | Well, my dear?" |
28805 | Were n''t they horrid? |
28805 | What can that mean? |
28805 | What connection had this beauty with riddles, if you please?" |
28805 | What could have become of them? |
28805 | What do you know about her?" |
28805 | What does she want?" |
28805 | What has that poor, learned dear to do with it?" |
28805 | What have you horrid boys been doing out there in the barn so early, waking tired little girls out of their beauty- sleep?" |
28805 | What is it? |
28805 | What is it? |
28805 | What might not be done with a whole one hundred dollars? |
28805 | What next?" |
28805 | What say?" |
28805 | What shall it be? |
28805 | What was that sound? |
28805 | What will Mr. Winters say? |
28805 | What will you do?" |
28805 | What yo''s''posin''my Miss Betty gwine ter say when she heahs ob dis yeah cuttin''s up? |
28805 | What you goin''to make, yourself, Dorothy Calvert?" |
28805 | What''s the use of spoiling a splendid time? |
28805 | What''s your name, little boy? |
28805 | What-- what-- shall I do? |
28805 | What? |
28805 | Whatever is the matter? |
28805 | Where did you get all that, Dorothy Calvert?" |
28805 | Where is he?" |
28805 | Where is that Seth Winters?" |
28805 | Which kings possess not? |
28805 | Which one have you caught?" |
28805 | Which? |
28805 | Who betters me?" |
28805 | Who ever heard tell of a stove in a barn?" |
28805 | Who had taken them? |
28805 | Who is for that?" |
28805 | Who is he?" |
28805 | Who knows but that was the key to unlock her closed intelligence? |
28805 | Who wants to, anyway? |
28805 | Who''s your next boy?" |
28805 | Who, what can it mean?" |
28805 | Why all that?" |
28805 | Why do you stand like that, pointing out into the night as if you''d seen a ghost?" |
28805 | Why, Dolly darling, you-- what''s wrong, honey? |
28805 | Why, child, do you know whose money that was?" |
28805 | Why? |
28805 | Will you assign the characters and let us get to studying, so we can make a success of it to- night?" |
28805 | Will you forgive and wait?" |
28805 | With such a-- a good man; is n''t he?" |
28805 | Wo n''t you get that bronchitis again? |
28805 | Would n''t we better wait till morning?" |
28805 | Would the man never tell his errand? |
28805 | Would you let her come to visit me? |
28805 | Would you put your pride aside and-- do right? |
28805 | Would you take her to meeting with you as is her birthright? |
28805 | Yet, if there had been thievery there, would n''t he have kept awake, to watch? |
28805 | You awake at last? |
28805 | You seem so anxious to speak?" |
28805 | You? |
28805 | _ Dorothy''s House Party._] CHAPTER XI MORNING TALKS"Did anybody ever know such a succession of beautiful days?" |
28805 | _ I!_ On my way to a circus? |
28805 | and not Aunt Betty? |
28805 | and say, Dolly, which of all them pretty dresses are you goin''to put on? |
28805 | has anybody told him that I suspected him?" |
28805 | her name? |
28805 | is thee possessed?" |
28805 | must we? |
28805 | thee?" |
28805 | will he take the twins away?" |
28805 | with all you young folks in it? |
32310 | ''He?'' 32310 ''Heap coals?''" |
32310 | Afraid? 32310 Am I?" |
32310 | And after that? 32310 Are you, dearest? |
32310 | Ate spoiled fish out of a garbage can, did he? 32310 Begging for what, Win?" |
32310 | But how Baal, and why? 32310 Could n''t you talk without stopping? |
32310 | Did you send for me, dear Bishop? |
32310 | Dorothy, will you please ring for a maid to look after Grace? 32310 Forgive you? |
32310 | Go away? 32310 Got any money, Dorothy?" |
32310 | Half- starved, sir? 32310 Has you got any nuts in your pockets? |
32310 | Have you been''inquisitioned''yet? |
32310 | I ca n''t work and talk, too; please be still, ca n''t you? |
32310 | I do n''t know how long I shall be, and why care about nuts while we can have-- this? |
32310 | Is it so far? 32310 It means-- is your father an Earl? |
32310 | Jack, are you in the habit of keeping that animal here, in this room? |
32310 | Likely somebody''s late and she''s waiting to say:''Miss''--whoever it is--''your excuse, please?'' 32310 Lost? |
32310 | Lost? 32310 Lovely, but is n''t it terribly clumsy?" |
32310 | Lovely? 32310 Not belonging? |
32310 | Robin, are you willing to work rather hard, in a good home, for your mother and to provide one for her, too? |
32310 | Robin, would n''t you be afraid? |
32310 | Said you''d got to go, did she? 32310 Seemed to be an old acquaintance of the farmer''s, did n''t it? |
32310 | Shall we try it again, Win? 32310 So this is my old friend Betty Calvert''s child, is it? |
32310 | Speaking of Robins, suppose we write her a round- robin letter? 32310 Staying with Grace? |
32310 | Sure we can be back in time, Robin? |
32310 | There, girlie, what do you say to that? 32310 To this shanty? |
32310 | Want the Metropole, Miss? |
32310 | Was Queen Elizabeth fat? |
32310 | Well, Win, you can be glad without squeezing the breath out of a body, ca n''t you? 32310 Well, dearie, I suppose I dare because Miss Tross- Kingdon--""Did she say you could? |
32310 | Well, if he wanted her to, what harm, Gwen? 32310 Well, now, Dorothy, do n''t that beat all? |
32310 | What Robin? |
32310 | What do you mean, Winifred Christie? 32310 What does that matter, whether she were or not? |
32310 | What in the world do you mean, Baby? 32310 What is it? |
32310 | What is the explanation of this, Dorothy? 32310 What makes him so slippery? |
32310 | What now? 32310 What things, dear? |
32310 | What? 32310 Whatever is the matter with that girl? |
32310 | Where can they go, how can they go, when can they go, Teacher? |
32310 | Where you going, Dolly Doodles? 32310 Where''s your trunk?" |
32310 | Who cares? 32310 Who owns him? |
32310 | Who''m you? 32310 Who''re you going to slide with, Dolly? |
32310 | Why ca n''t they? 32310 Why did I come to Oak Knowe alone? |
32310 | Why did he throw out the barrels? |
32310 | Why did n''t you come back? 32310 Why did you do it? |
32310 | Why for ca n''t I speak, Dorothy? 32310 Why should I be afraid? |
32310 | Why, Gwen, dearest, surely she did n''t make you nervous again, did she? 32310 Why, Mr. Gilpin, what''s the matter? |
32310 | Why, are n''t you stupid, Dolly? 32310 Why, darling, what is this? |
32310 | Why, sir, things ca n''t be done without folks do them, can they? |
32310 | Why-- why-- darling-- can you_ speak_? 32310 Will I not? |
32310 | Will ye? 32310 Win, you darling, what do you mean?" |
32310 | Would you? 32310 Would you? |
32310 | You do forgive, do n''t you, dear old John? |
32310 | You fix it? 32310 You want me to''begin at the beginning''? |
32310 | You''ll be quiet, Winifred, and keep out of mischief? |
32310 | ''Tisn''t winter all the year and who wears top- coats in summer? |
32310 | ''Where are you going, my pretty maid? |
32310 | A real letter explainin''about the accident, when the lassie''s toboggan got in our way and we got that mixed''twas nigh the death of the lot? |
32310 | A share of the Hallowe''en treat, is it, Dorothy?" |
32310 | Afraid to go into my own house, that was, that my father built with his own hands? |
32310 | After all my meanness to you, could you make yourself like me just a little?" |
32310 | Am I invited?" |
32310 | And Baal? |
32310 | And a boy who in but a week''s time had learned to clean shoes so well and promptly? |
32310 | And am I a bit better-- in myself-- because in reality I belonged to a rich old family, than I was when I washed dishes in Mother Martha''s kitchen? |
32310 | And had Dorothy come suddenly upon his track? |
32310 | And immediately the meal was over, Winifred hurried to the Lady Principal and asked:"Please, Miss Muriel, can you tell me, is Dorothy Calvert ill?" |
32310 | And most of all how came he here in the house?" |
32310 | And say, girlie, where''s that Jack, boot- boy? |
32310 | And this Robin was a paragon, was n''t he? |
32310 | And what you think? |
32310 | And who invited it to the masquerade? |
32310 | And why ai n''t you_ in_ bed,''stead of out of it? |
32310 | And would n''t you rather carry nuts in your pockets for such nice little girls as me, than crawly things inside your smock to bite you? |
32310 | And, Gwen, dear, have you finished your picture yet for the exhibition?" |
32310 | And, please, Lady Jane, may I go now? |
32310 | Anything wrong in the dormitory?" |
32310 | Are n''t you grateful that somebody who could swim, even poor I, was at the pool to help you out of it that day? |
32310 | Are those for me and so soon? |
32310 | Are you hungry?" |
32310 | Are you ill?" |
32310 | Are you mischievous, too, I wonder?" |
32310 | Are you sure you''re quite strong enough to come?" |
32310 | Are you trying to''heap coals''on my head?" |
32310 | Are you_ alive_? |
32310 | As a sort of payment for Dorothy''s assistance at the Maiden''s Bath? |
32310 | At the point where you knew you were to change trains, why did you not keep watch and inquire for direction?" |
32310 | Baal, what say? |
32310 | Back out? |
32310 | But Dolly? |
32310 | But I do n''t know which ones are; do you?" |
32310 | But how came she to have it? |
32310 | But is all your clothes in that satchel?" |
32310 | But now, was the burglar real? |
32310 | But people may travel once in a while, may n''t they? |
32310 | But say, girl, you have n''t told me your name yet?" |
32310 | But what matter? |
32310 | But what sort of sled is this, man? |
32310 | But where''s your jacket? |
32310 | But would n''t you better wait another day? |
32310 | But''he''d admire''to have just one before he died--""He had it, did n''t he?" |
32310 | But, as she spoke, a hand was laid upon her shoulder and a rather gruff voice demanded:"Why, little stranger, what''s a- troublin''ye?" |
32310 | But-- was there not? |
32310 | But_ half did_ have sense and that is-- Who do you think gave me my beautiful toboggan things?" |
32310 | Buttons it right around me-- this way-- so I never could slip out, could I? |
32310 | Ca n''t I have nice feelings same as you? |
32310 | Ca n''t eat it? |
32310 | Ca n''t one man do same''s t''other, I''d like to know, Mis''Dawkins?" |
32310 | Can we get a carriage anywhere and would it take us back without any money to pay it? |
32310 | Can you see Dorothy Calvert anywhere behind? |
32310 | Can you?" |
32310 | Changing the subject, did you get a slide to- day?" |
32310 | Could I-- could I climb out it?" |
32310 | Could it be Dorothy? |
32310 | Could n''t a body believe one''s own eyes? |
32310 | Could she? |
32310 | Did Millikins ever tell you a wrong story in her whole life?" |
32310 | Did n''t the apples sell well?" |
32310 | Did n''t the_ chef_ often say that"Seeing is believing,"when the scullery maid stole the raisins and he found them in her pocket? |
32310 | Did n''t you know about it before? |
32310 | Did n''t you pester the life clean out o''me till I said I''d try? |
32310 | Did she really mean it?" |
32310 | Did you ever see my mother, lady?" |
32310 | Did you say the''whole school''?" |
32310 | Did you see which way they went, Gwendolyn?" |
32310 | Do love her and take her back into your trust, and may I go now to tell her she can go nutting and about Saturday, and may I hurry up?" |
32310 | Do n''t that beat all?" |
32310 | Do n''t you think it was terrible nice for Gwendolyn to give you your things?" |
32310 | Do n''t you think so, Miss Muriel?" |
32310 | Do n''t you think so? |
32310 | Do n''t you?" |
32310 | Do you like them?" |
32310 | Do you mean that she is n''t in her own place?" |
32310 | Do you play at all, on any instrument, or sing?" |
32310 | Do you s''pose we could get a doctor to him?" |
32310 | Do you suppose the Bishop has had it made, or bought it, for me? |
32310 | Do you think I could get it?" |
32310 | Do you think I ought to have them? |
32310 | Do you want to be disgraced before them?" |
32310 | Do you want to hear any more? |
32310 | Do you? |
32310 | Do your young eyes see something or somebody lying beyond in the middle of the road?" |
32310 | Do''reptiles''buzz, Dolly, same as sting- bees do? |
32310 | Doctor, what if it should be something contagious? |
32310 | Does it rain every day in Canada? |
32310 | Does n''t it make you feel you''re a bird of the air? |
32310 | Dorothy Calvert, can you, will you ever forgive me? |
32310 | Dorothy Calvert-- will you forgive me?" |
32310 | Dorothy was frightened and surprised, and quickly asked:"How can anybody call that''sport''which is as dangerous as that? |
32310 | Dorothy? |
32310 | Down on her knees she went, flung her arms around the shaking shoulders, and pleaded:"Well, you poor dear, ca n''t you be glad of that? |
32310 | Dressin''up like the Old Boy, be ye? |
32310 | Else why should she kiss her? |
32310 | Even if you can never like me is n''t it good to be alive? |
32310 | Ever ride in an ox- cart? |
32310 | Ever see a neater yoke o''cattle? |
32310 | First start-- who be ye?" |
32310 | For who could bear to leave behind that one last child of the great family? |
32310 | Gilpin?" |
32310 | Girl, what do you think? |
32310 | Gwendolyn how dared you? |
32310 | Gwendolyn turned toward Dorothy with a smile intended to be cordial, and asked:"Is that so, indeed? |
32310 | Had harm befallen her favorite? |
32310 | Has you?" |
32310 | Have a biscuit, dear?" |
32310 | Have n''t you another pair? |
32310 | Have you an Honorable amongst you? |
32310 | Have you felt any chill?" |
32310 | Have you got anything to eat? |
32310 | Have you?" |
32310 | Have you?" |
32310 | Have you?" |
32310 | He called it''Baal,''as if that was its name; and was n''t it too funny for words? |
32310 | He does n''t mince matters, does he?" |
32310 | He had a dime novel in one pocket, an English sixpence in another-- And what was this? |
32310 | He was so vexed with me because he thought-- May I go now, Ma''am? |
32310 | He''s well now an''why should I go to harboring_ reptiles_ in my buzzum? |
32310 | He? |
32310 | Hey?" |
32310 | How are you?" |
32310 | How be ye all? |
32310 | How can anybody help where they''re born or who their parents are? |
32310 | How can she be right here in this house? |
32310 | How could I? |
32310 | How could there be under this safe roof?" |
32310 | How dare she? |
32310 | How dare you stay in bed so?" |
32310 | How did you get Baal into this room without being detected in it?" |
32310 | How did you keep warm in here, if this is where you lived?" |
32310 | How is she doin'', lass? |
32310 | How long will it be before we can go find the others? |
32310 | I just stepped here to ask is Miss Dorothy Calvert staying the night?" |
32310 | I mean your other one? |
32310 | I wish-- do you suppose-- Ain''t there a winder some''ers nigh? |
32310 | I wonder if I ought to take it back? |
32310 | I wonder was the little Grace scared again, by that ridic''lous goat? |
32310 | I wondered who he meant; but Lady Principal saw me looking in and asked me if''I wished anything?'' |
32310 | I''m safe, I''ll grant ye that; but-- sound? |
32310 | I''m seekin''my fortune-- understand? |
32310 | I-- I--""Lost? |
32310 | If I asked you and your mother to come here to live, would you get tired? |
32310 | If you must have an intimate, why not choose her from''our set''?" |
32310 | If you''ll only remember I was n''t saucy then-- A girl you''d raised to hand, like me, could n''t really be saucy, could she? |
32310 | In your mortal''arthly life, did ye? |
32310 | Is Dorothy found?" |
32310 | Is Dorothy in there? |
32310 | Is he old enough? |
32310 | Is it a''he''then and not one of the girls?" |
32310 | Is n''t it fine-- fine? |
32310 | Is n''t it funny? |
32310 | Is n''t it marked plainly enough? |
32310 | Is n''t she the very sight and image of Robin, the lad? |
32310 | Is that why Dorothy went with her? |
32310 | Is this Hall high up? |
32310 | Is this another mystery of yours?" |
32310 | It was her own party, was n''t it? |
32310 | John Gilpin? |
32310 | Just look out of window a minute-- what do you see?" |
32310 | Leave before then? |
32310 | Like to hear how I come nigh- hand to death along of a devil fish? |
32310 | Looks rather rough, does n''t it? |
32310 | Lost, you say? |
32310 | Ma''am, did you hear tell of such a place? |
32310 | May I go now and ask the Bishop, then tell the girls?" |
32310 | May I talk to you a moment?" |
32310 | May I, Madam?" |
32310 | May I?" |
32310 | May she and I give it?" |
32310 | May she?" |
32310 | May we go?" |
32310 | Meanwhile how had the night passed with the imprisoned Dorothy? |
32310 | Met you up with any trouble? |
32310 | Miss Muriel, may I--?" |
32310 | My, what''s this he clenches so tight in hand? |
32310 | Negroes? |
32310 | No living girl could make all that racket; yet-- was that a scream? |
32310 | Nobody could call me all that, could they? |
32310 | Not like the beggar folks come''tramping''by and has''victuals''given to them? |
32310 | Now, what do you think of that? |
32310 | Now-- what do you think of that?" |
32310 | Old John turned his bare, bald head toward her and demanded:"What do you know about Halifax? |
32310 | On Michael''s sled? |
32310 | Or go to the railway stations? |
32310 | Or the Governor General? |
32310 | Or would she dislike to help care for the linen mending? |
32310 | Please explain; are you''Peer''or''Lower House''?" |
32310 | Queen Baltimore, are n''t you glad you''re poor?" |
32310 | Queen, what shall we call you? |
32310 | Right here and now, on the back of this letter of Father''s? |
32310 | Right here in this town? |
32310 | Robin?" |
32310 | S''pose the faculty''ll offer a reward? |
32310 | See?" |
32310 | She asked merrily:"Is it there we keep our consciences? |
32310 | She had accused him of"trying to kill her"as well as Gwen and little Grace; but he"kill anything"? |
32310 | Slow and sure''s their motto and what''s an hour, more or less, in a little girl''s lifetime? |
32310 | So I fastened''em together on the insides-- See? |
32310 | So still that they were both frightened and Dolly asked:"How can we get him there, if they would take him in? |
32310 | So that the sensitive girl was alarmed and asked:"Is it something that I''ve done but ought not?" |
32310 | So you think it''s ptomaine poisoning, do you Doctor Jack- o''-my- thumb? |
32310 | So-- Well, I suppose I''ll have to stay, then, for who wants to get took up? |
32310 | Sound? |
32310 | Still, as she turned to follow the teacher, she obediently saluted the physician and, glancing up into his face, saw-- was it possible that he winked? |
32310 | Suppose he should get lost?" |
32310 | Sure you could manage it on this steep incline?" |
32310 | That seemed a very long answer to impatient Dawkins and she clipped it short by asking:"Then, Ma''am, where do you suppose she is?" |
32310 | That was so funny she smiled, seeing it, and asked him:"Ca n''t you explain this, Jack?" |
32310 | The simple country treat of nuts, popped corn, and cider had proved enjoyable to other schoolmates-- why should n''t it to Gwendolyn? |
32310 | Then he dropped what the schoolgirls called his"preachy manner"and asked:"How do you like tobogganing?" |
32310 | Then what do you want?" |
32310 | This wo n''t be very different, will it?" |
32310 | Understand? |
32310 | Want to feel your hair rise on end and your arms get reg''lar goose- fleshy? |
32310 | Was it laughter-- terror-- wild animal-- or what? |
32310 | Was that what made him so top- lofty and up- steppin''? |
32310 | Well, good- by, Queenie, with aching heart from you I part; when shall we meet again? |
32310 | Were n''t you just awfully scared all the time?" |
32310 | What are the things you''re talking about?" |
32310 | What are they doing now?" |
32310 | What did this mean? |
32310 | What difference does it make, and who will know? |
32310 | What do think? |
32310 | What do you mean? |
32310 | What do you mean?" |
32310 | What do you take me for? |
32310 | What do you think it was that happened? |
32310 | What do you think now? |
32310 | What do you think?" |
32310 | What else do they l''arn children over in the States? |
32310 | What has frightened you?" |
32310 | What in creation makes you drag so on that strap and keep lookin''back? |
32310 | What is it you want? |
32310 | What is it? |
32310 | What made her darling so incorrigible? |
32310 | What makes you laugh, Winifred? |
32310 | What next? |
32310 | What of the latter''s realization? |
32310 | What sent you out of bed, just in your nightgown? |
32310 | What shall I do-- what shall I do?" |
32310 | What sort of baby were you-- good, bad, or indifferent? |
32310 | What stunts can you do?" |
32310 | What was your bit of a roll down that smooth ice compared to what our girls went through?" |
32310 | What wicked word is that you speak?" |
32310 | What would Aunt Betty think of her heedless action? |
32310 | What you carry me for, running so?" |
32310 | What you doing in my house? |
32310 | What''d he go for? |
32310 | What''s it, lassie, you want?" |
32310 | What''s that?" |
32310 | What''s that?" |
32310 | What''s the use standing here?" |
32310 | What''s the use? |
32310 | What''s yours, Dorothy?" |
32310 | What? |
32310 | Whatever are you talking about? |
32310 | When may I, may we, go to see Robin?" |
32310 | When''d you come? |
32310 | When?" |
32310 | Where are your suit case and hand bag?" |
32310 | Where did he come from?" |
32310 | Where do you hail from?" |
32310 | Where have you kept him, Jack, and how?" |
32310 | Where were you born? |
32310 | Where''d the beast come from, anyway? |
32310 | Where''d you come from?" |
32310 | Where''s Robin now?" |
32310 | Where''s your bath robe?" |
32310 | Who are you, anyway, and what makes you stay in cubicle so long after breakfast? |
32310 | Who are you? |
32310 | Who can tell? |
32310 | Who cares where it came from or how much it cost? |
32310 | Who had done this thing? |
32310 | Who would get it? |
32310 | Who''ll win?" |
32310 | Who''s the candidate you''re electioneering for?" |
32310 | Whom do you mean?" |
32310 | Why did I violate the privacy of Oak Knowe by setting them to search? |
32310 | Why do n''t he come back?" |
32310 | Why do you walk in it, Winifred?" |
32310 | Why for ca n''t I be alive? |
32310 | Why had she done it? |
32310 | Why not go right away? |
32310 | Why should she be made to feel so guilty and insignificant? |
32310 | Why was I such a fool as to dance that jig instead of eating that pudding and beans? |
32310 | Why, is that Ephraim a negro?" |
32310 | Why, it''s only an hour ago, or not much more, since he spoke of it, and how could anybody go to town and back in that little while, in such a storm?" |
32310 | Why? |
32310 | Will she kindly advance and receive it?" |
32310 | Will you be afraid?" |
32310 | Will you be here?" |
32310 | Will you see to it, Miss Muriel, that Dorothy has a toboggan rig provided? |
32310 | Will you show me?" |
32310 | Winifred caught the others about the waist and whirled them indoors again, first gleefully kissing her father''s bit of writing and asking:"Think so? |
32310 | With more decency than she had hitherto shown, she finally asked:"However did you come to know so much botany, Miss Calvert?" |
32310 | Wo n''t that be fine?" |
32310 | Wo n''t the Lady Principal be angry if I do n''t get examined?" |
32310 | Wo n''t you go with_ me_, dear? |
32310 | Worst is, what''ll dame think? |
32310 | Would Miss Tross- Kingdon pay it, do you think? |
32310 | Would n''t I be able to talk for you?" |
32310 | Would n''t I? |
32310 | Would n''t cheaper ones answer for messing around in the snow?" |
32310 | Would n''t you?" |
32310 | Would she ever reach Oak Knowe, and how would this escapade be regarded there? |
32310 | You are n''t real poor, are you, Dolly? |
32310 | You did n''t get told, did you?" |
32310 | You do n''t want it? |
32310 | You got a box?" |
32310 | Your duty--""Why, Lady Principal, you would n''t have us''pass by on the other side,''would you? |
32310 | Your luggage, Miss, allow me?" |
32310 | and say, look at the Aldrich ten-- can you see Dorothy?" |
32310 | and should I dress before the supper?" |
32310 | and when do you want us, Mother and me?" |
32310 | dear, you know what I mean, do n''t you, dear Dawkins?" |
32310 | do you mean it? |
32310 | is n''t it good to see them? |
32310 | may I?" |
32310 | old woman, what''s the matter with you? |
32310 | or your mother a Duchess? |
32310 | ran Gwendolyn''s thoughts, and she showed her annoyance by asking:"Miss Calvert, will you oblige me by not screaming quite so loud? |
32310 | remarked Bessie Walters; at which the others laughed and Annie Dow inquired,"Who is Robin?" |
32310 | that style?" |
32606 | A friend of yours, Madam? |
32606 | Afraid? 32606 And mine, for my great- great- grandfather''s sister was-- How was that, dear Colonel? |
32606 | And who''d ride it? |
32606 | And without it, where could Ephy sleep and Chloe cook? 32606 Are there any fish here?" |
32606 | Are those monkeys for sale? |
32606 | Aunt Betty, are n''t you well? 32606 Aunt Betty, what does that''of T''mean after that queer Colonel''s name?" |
32606 | Aurora Blank? 32606 Be you goin''to stay to my house all your life? |
32606 | Boy, are you always so cross before breakfast? |
32606 | But are n''t you glad, Jim? |
32606 | But, Cunnel, how''bout you? 32606 But, Dorothy, are n''t you afraid? |
32606 | Can he be ridden? |
32606 | Cruising in the woods, you mean, eh? 32606 Did you ever notice? |
32606 | Did you get a beam? 32606 Did you plant this celery?" |
32606 | Dillingham? 32606 Do you stay here alone those times, ma''am? |
32606 | Do you suppose it was really to find the''buried treasure''the Colonel came? 32606 Dolly Doodles-- what you sayin''?" |
32606 | Eh, what? 32606 Elsa Carruthers?" |
32606 | Engineer James Barlow? |
32606 | Ephraim, did you ever live in a house- boat? |
32606 | Evah lib in a house- boat? 32606 Fall into the Eddy? |
32606 | Fifteen? |
32606 | Foolish girl, do n''t you know that there ca n''t be two heads to any management? |
32606 | For me? 32606 For sale?" |
32606 | Got money left for your''passage?'' |
32606 | How about me, dear? 32606 How can we dare, how could we if we dared, try the Bay? |
32606 | How do you know it''s French if you do n''t know French? |
32606 | How much yo''tax''em at? |
32606 | How much? |
32606 | How? 32606 I say, Dolly Calvert, have you lost your senses?" |
32606 | I-- I could n''t do very much-- with a paperknife, could I? 32606 If we had any papers, and we haven''t-- who''d we show them to, anyway?" |
32606 | Is it really, truly mine, to do with exactly as I want? |
32606 | Is n''t it the queerest thing? 32606 Is n''t she? |
32606 | It''s like a church, is n''t it? 32606 Jim, do n''t you want to take a chance? |
32606 | Lost? 32606 Lucetty? |
32606 | Mabel Bruce? |
32606 | Master Engineer, John Stinson? |
32606 | Miss Calvert, did you know that you make the thirteenth person? |
32606 | Mr. Ephraim Brown- Calvert? |
32606 | Mrs. Charlotte Bruce? |
32606 | Mrs. Chloe Brown, assistant chef and dishwasher? |
32606 | Mrs. Elisabeth Cecil Somerset Calvert? |
32606 | My dear sir, what have I said? 32606 None the rest? |
32606 | Oh, we''re both right on hand, do n''t you know? 32606 Ottawotta Run? |
32606 | Papers? 32606 Please, sir, wo n''t you try to make him go?" |
32606 | Say? 32606 Shall I ever forget? |
32606 | Ship''s papers, child alive? 32606 Story? |
32606 | They''re terribly alive, indeed, do n''t you know? 32606 They-- why-- why-- what have you done? |
32606 | Twenty- five? |
32606 | Twenty? |
32606 | Was it the color of his smock made him measly? 32606 Wattymillyouns? |
32606 | Well, now, mate, how d''ye_ know_ them''s cows''tracks? 32606 Well, what is it, Sainty?" |
32606 | Well, what of it? 32606 What about a horse, or a mule? |
32606 | What about your monkey, Gerry? |
32606 | What did his brother say, please? |
32606 | What does Mr. Stillwell do, your husband, to tire him, so''t he needs the woods to rest him? 32606 What seest thou, lad? |
32606 | What''s that? 32606 What''s that? |
32606 | What''s the use eyeing a fellow like that? 32606 What''s up?" |
32606 | What''s-- happened? |
32606 | Wheah''s he gwine at? |
32606 | When we go house- boating may I invite anybody I choose to go with us? |
32606 | Where did Elsa take those monks? 32606 Where is he? |
32606 | Where you come from? 32606 Where''s other brother, Saint Anne? |
32606 | Why not, indeed, Aunt Betty? 32606 Why, babies dear, what''s the matter? |
32606 | Why, good people, what''s the matter? |
32606 | Why, little ones, what are you doing? 32606 Would that take long? |
32606 | Yeah''m I? |
32606 | Yes, is n''t it? 32606 You had money enough to buy fool monkeys, did n''t you?" |
32606 | ''Spect we''d be let to sail out o''port''ithout showin''our licenses? |
32606 | ''What you- all doin''ter mah li''l lamb?'' |
32606 | ''Why- fo''?'' |
32606 | A doctor? |
32606 | A moment later, when he had recognized the befused and battered teamster, demanding:"Who you fightin''with now, By Smith? |
32606 | About Billy? |
32606 | About our great- great- grandmother''s-- father''s-- relationship? |
32606 | Afraid to stay alone back there?" |
32606 | After a moment of surprise Melvin broke the silence, asking:"Do you have this kind of thing often in Maryland?" |
32606 | Ai n''t it de trufe?" |
32606 | Ai n''t it de trufe?" |
32606 | Ai n''t that the limit?" |
32606 | All these days what have you done?" |
32606 | Almost all the autumn flowers are either purple or yellow or white? |
32606 | And I say is n''t this the beastliest slow- poke of a hole you ever saw? |
32606 | And do n''t you s''pose we could carry Gerry there, just the same as we brought him here? |
32606 | And have a man from the shop attend to it? |
32606 | And how did you know all that about the colors?" |
32606 | And if Mrs. Betty''s so poor, what you doing with a house- boat, anyway?" |
32606 | And in this"look ahead"Dorothy was asked:"What shall you do with the Water Lily, when this year''s cruise is over?" |
32606 | And what fool would give such a thing as a house- boat to a chit of a girl like our Dorothy?" |
32606 | And what was that I heard about quitting?" |
32606 | And, Colonel Dillingham, ca n''t you ride Billy alongside, on the shores we pass? |
32606 | And, after all, what does it matter where we live or what we have so long as there is peace and good will in one''s heart? |
32606 | And, look- a- here? |
32606 | Are all those letters from your summer- friends? |
32606 | Are n''t we all? |
32606 | Are n''t we going to be gloriously happy? |
32606 | Are n''t you glad that''Uncle Seth''gave me the''Water Lily''?" |
32606 | Are n''t you glad to see me, again?" |
32606 | Are n''t you glad you came? |
32606 | Are they people or just dear, dear animals?" |
32606 | Are you all up there? |
32606 | Are you taking them for their''constitutional''now, Elsa dear?" |
32606 | As he finished the"Learned Blacksmith"drew his beloved ward to his side and looked into her sparkling eyes, asking:"Well, Dolly Doodles, what say?" |
32606 | At this his fury burst forth again and he slouched upon poor Cap''n Jack with uplifted fists and the demand:"Whe''s my team at, you thief? |
32606 | Aunt Betty, Uncle Seth?" |
32606 | Aunt Betty, is n''t that fine? |
32606 | Aunt Betty, too, grew more serious and she asked the practical question:"Is it a very expensive thing to run? |
32606 | Auntie, do n''t you like him? |
32606 | Auntie, that boat would hold a lot of people, would n''t it?" |
32606 | Back so soon? |
32606 | Besides, ladies in distress? |
32606 | But do n''t you know a lot of Baltimoreans, or Marylanders, write their names that way? |
32606 | But even then her timidity moved her to say:"Suppose something happens? |
32606 | But have you no greeting for your old acquaintance, Mr. Stinson? |
32606 | But how does a person transport monkeys?" |
32606 | But how is the man conducting himself now?" |
32606 | But how? |
32606 | But if this little girl would like to have them we are delighted to make her a present of them, do n''t you know? |
32606 | But is n''t it going to be just lovely, living on the Water Lily? |
32606 | But now, has everybody had all the breakfast wanted? |
32606 | But the face clouded when he asked:"Got any money, Sis?" |
32606 | But what''s the odds? |
32606 | But where is Jim? |
32606 | But, at that moment, Mr. Carruthers himself appeared on the roof of the cabin, demanding:"What''s up, Cap''n Jack? |
32606 | But, tell-- tell-- how came you up there?" |
32606 | But, what were you going to say?" |
32606 | But-- shall I, folks? |
32606 | But-- what can you expect? |
32606 | By the way, Dorothy, who deals out the provisions on this trip?" |
32606 | Ca n''t pay? |
32606 | Ca n''t you be glad to get home without begging for money? |
32606 | Ca n''t you read? |
32606 | Calvert?" |
32606 | Calvert?" |
32606 | Calvert?" |
32606 | Can anybody see the tender?" |
32606 | Can we go on board and inspect?" |
32606 | Can you see? |
32606 | Captain Hurry, Captain Barlow, Captain Blank, Captain Cook----""What do Barlow and Cook know about the water? |
32606 | Captain Jack Hurry?" |
32606 | Cayn''t you, Billy?" |
32606 | Cheat an honest man of his earnin''s, will you?" |
32606 | Chicken''s nice, ai n''t it, with gravy? |
32606 | Corny Stillwell, do you know what day this is? |
32606 | Corny''s my papa, do n''t you know? |
32606 | Cruise? |
32606 | D''ye happen to see Billy, anywhere?" |
32606 | Did Gerald need me?" |
32606 | Did anybody know where his clothes were? |
32606 | Did n''t I warn ye''twas comin''? |
32606 | Did n''t you see the signs''No Trespassing''everywhere? |
32606 | Did n''t you want to come? |
32606 | Did you never get into the woods and smell the ferns and things? |
32606 | Did you, boys?" |
32606 | Did your mother save any for herself? |
32606 | Dillingham of T? |
32606 | Do I know what sort of mule Cunnel Dillingham has? |
32606 | Do n''t it appear like the doctor''s rig? |
32606 | Do n''t it beat all? |
32606 | Do n''t know how? |
32606 | Do n''t like it? |
32606 | Do n''t they sell hay up home at Baltimore? |
32606 | Do n''t you know? |
32606 | Do n''t you really know, either?" |
32606 | Do n''t you think so?" |
32606 | Do n''t you''member? |
32606 | Do you know her and where she lies?" |
32606 | Do you know one?" |
32606 | Do you know this doctor and dislike him? |
32606 | Do you know where he is?" |
32606 | Do you mean you want him right beside you?" |
32606 | Do you mention that hated name to me? |
32606 | Do you remember?" |
32606 | Do you suppose the monkeys can catch it? |
32606 | Do you want a job?" |
32606 | Does he farm it?" |
32606 | Does it seem it can be true that it''s really, truly ours?" |
32606 | Does n''t she look exactly like one? |
32606 | Does n''t that seem queer? |
32606 | Dorothy held her dripping bit of melon at arm''s length and quickly asked:"What do you mean? |
32606 | Eh, Cunnel? |
32606 | Eh? |
32606 | Eh? |
32606 | Eunice? |
32606 | Evah kiss a cat''s lef''hind foot? |
32606 | Even Mommer calls herself Mrs. Edward Newcomer- Blank of R.""Why''of R?'' |
32606 | Ford an''deers feedin''? |
32606 | Fourteen eaters and twelve halves of broiled chicken-- Problem, who goes without?" |
32606 | Funny old snoozer, ai n''t he?" |
32606 | Funny, was n''t that? |
32606 | Gerald Blank stared and asked:"In what way, please? |
32606 | Gerald Blank?" |
32606 | Go thirds with us in''em?" |
32606 | Good? |
32606 | Got any melons? |
32606 | Got it?" |
32606 | Had this down- trodden"worm"actually"turned"? |
32606 | Has the wild raging of the Patapsco scared the lady passengers? |
32606 | Have a cup of tea, Miss-- Calvert, is it?" |
32606 | Have a swallow, Commodore?" |
32606 | Have n''t tumbled out of a balloon, have ye? |
32606 | Have n''t you seen it in the papers?" |
32606 | Have you hurt yourselves?" |
32606 | He added to them:"Dorothy Calvert makes me think of my mother, do n''t you know? |
32606 | He finished by asking:"Is there any house near where we can take this boy? |
32606 | He may get restless and Corny-- Did he take his gun?" |
32606 | He said, my papa said:''Suppose younkers we start a circus of our own?'' |
32606 | He was saved, was n''t he? |
32606 | Hear that? |
32606 | Here was a solution to their own dilemma--"what shall we do with the monks?" |
32606 | Hey? |
32606 | His expression hurt her, somehow, and she turned away her eyes, asking a practical question of her own:"Would three hundred dollars do it?" |
32606 | How can a Calvert tell a guest to go home again after that?" |
32606 | How could a fellow lose anything in this hole, even if he tried? |
32606 | How dare you?" |
32606 | How did he get here? |
32606 | How do you suppose, in this mortal world, those women and girls had gumption enough to run away with that house- boat? |
32606 | How on earth do you put in your time? |
32606 | How''d you do it? |
32606 | How''s farming? |
32606 | How''s this for medicine?" |
32606 | I allow my faithful Billy to set foot on that soil? |
32606 | I can talk, ca n''t I? |
32606 | I could fancy I was still on shipboard, do n''t you know?" |
32606 | I did n''t know-- I''m sorry, I''ll plant them right back-- I only did what the others said-- Nobody warned me-- us--""_ Us?_ Are there others then? |
32606 | I did n''t know-- I''m sorry, I''ll plant them right back-- I only did what the others said-- Nobody warned me-- us--""_ Us?_ Are there others then? |
32606 | I go to Ottawotta? |
32606 | I hope Jim will find the little Saint right soon and be back, too; but do n''t you think they''ll be frightened about you? |
32606 | I tell you he''s a character----""Billy? |
32606 | I was coming after the monkeys, they''re mine you know-- or half mine, but-- do they act that way often?" |
32606 | I''ll slip off again without seeing Elsa, and you understand? |
32606 | I''m a''hireling,''too, d''ye mind? |
32606 | I''ve invested all I can afford in monkeys just now, do n''t you know? |
32606 | I----""Young man, do you doubt my word, sir?" |
32606 | If it had chicken on it could you hold it right side up and not lose a single bit? |
32606 | If you''ll tell me where the hoe is, please?" |
32606 | Is Billy lookin''comf''table?" |
32606 | Is aught wrong beyond already?" |
32606 | Is he comf''table? |
32606 | Is it far to Deer- Copse?" |
32606 | Is it still full of those ill- bred men, who swarmed over this boat as if they owned it?" |
32606 | Is n''t grass really hay? |
32606 | Is n''t it just glorious? |
32606 | Is n''t there a man here?" |
32606 | Is n''t there any sort of light we can get?" |
32606 | Is our good lady sick?" |
32606 | Is that the truly nautical way to speak? |
32606 | Is they, Billy?" |
32606 | Is''t a bargain? |
32606 | It just came to me-- what can they think, when they come back and find you gone, except that you were out of your mind and wandered off? |
32606 | It''s awful bad luck to fight at sea, do n''t you know?" |
32606 | It''s nicer''an buttermilk, ai n''t it? |
32606 | Jim finished his recital with the eager inquiry:"Now, sir, do n''t you think you can sell Billy and put a reasonable price on him?" |
32606 | Jim tried to keep his face straight as he inquired:"What is the price of Billy, sir?" |
32606 | Josephine? |
32606 | Just because a healthy boy got caught in a''gust''? |
32606 | Just me alone? |
32606 | Just suppose? |
32606 | Likely these whole States have been dug over, foot by foot, same''s our Province has, do n''t you know? |
32606 | Lost wallet? |
32606 | Lost your wagon, have you? |
32606 | Love is the most beautiful thing in all the world, is n''t it? |
32606 | Metty looked up and sat up-- with a groan:"Say, Mister,''d you evah hab de tummy- ache?" |
32606 | Most of these nodded to him as they passed, with an indifferent"Howdy, Cunnel?" |
32606 | Must ye go, boys? |
32606 | My old one I gave Miss Molly, do n''t you know? |
32606 | Never really at peace''cept when ye''re rowin'', are ye?" |
32606 | No radiance followed, and, watching from the doorway, Cap''n Jack triumphantly exclaimed:"Did n''t I know it? |
32606 | No? |
32606 | Not Wesley, nor Saint Augustine, nor Dorcas, nor Sheba, nor teeny- tiny David boy? |
32606 | Not much, do you think?" |
32606 | Now ai n''t that clever? |
32606 | Now as he held the telegram in his hand his face clouded, so that Griselda, watching, anxiously inquired:"Is something wrong? |
32606 | Now-- how much money have you on hand?" |
32606 | Odd, is n''t it, Madam?" |
32606 | Of course, girlie, I do n''t mean that fully, but is n''t it a queer notion? |
32606 | Only, what about Gerald? |
32606 | Or ai n''t you no memory left in that rattle- pate o''you- all''s? |
32606 | Or to-- to make up friends with his daughter?" |
32606 | Or would you be afraid?" |
32606 | Or, rather, to go back and start over again-- if we dare?" |
32606 | Or, will you come, too?" |
32606 | Path? |
32606 | Pay? |
32606 | Price of melons? |
32606 | Queer, ai n''t it? |
32606 | Rising, he asked:"Mr. Stillwell, can you show us the way to Deer- Copse, or tell us I mean? |
32606 | S''posing he left one his hairs on that chicken? |
32606 | Say for about three months?" |
32606 | Say, Daddy dear? |
32606 | Say, Dorcas,''twouldn''t not do to give mamma grapes what have fell into dirty grass, would it? |
32606 | Say, Elsa----""Gerald, I mean Mr. Blank, is all that true?" |
32606 | See? |
32606 | Seems if they''s gone a dreadful spell, do n''t it? |
32606 | Shall I send down a tug to tow you back to the city? |
32606 | Shall we wait for him? |
32606 | She scarcely heard and wholly failed to understand Dorothy''s repeated question:"May I, dear Aunt Betty?" |
32606 | Six dollars a meal, eighteen dollars a day, how long will what is left of three hundred dollars last, after we pay for Billy, as you said we must?" |
32606 | Six whole dollars for one single breakfast? |
32606 | So they''ve at last called upon my house- boat friends, have they? |
32606 | Sometimes, do n''t you know? |
32606 | Stillwell?" |
32606 | Stream o''water? |
32606 | Suppose he were to contract pneumonia? |
32606 | Suppose we should get lost? |
32606 | That just a little bit of ignorance can hide important things from a fellow, that way? |
32606 | That slender slip of a woman does almost all their farm work, herself? |
32606 | The sick boy has all he wants, do n''t he? |
32606 | The"good side"of Gerald came uppermost and he awkwardly apologized:"Just forget I was a cad, will you, boys? |
32606 | Then his good nature made him explain:"What''s a wharf- master for, d''ye s''pose? |
32606 | Then standing as upright as he could, he shouted:"Now face that way-- North, ai n''t it? |
32606 | Then, too, Jim, did you know that poor Mabel Bruce has lost her father? |
32606 | Then-- Did you ever hear a colored woman holler? |
32606 | There was a boat- hook hanging on the rail-- that''s a long thing with a spike, or hook, at one end, to pull a boat to shore, do n''t you know? |
32606 | They are all new, are n''t they? |
32606 | They are welcome, sure, but-- what''s wrong here?" |
32606 | They look terrible little, do n''t they, now they''re cooked? |
32606 | They''ll be trying it, but the Water Lily''s your boat now, is n''t it?" |
32606 | This is her racket, is n''t it? |
32606 | This was so evident that she smiled as she asked:"Who thinks best to give up this trip? |
32606 | This was too much for the lads and a laugh arose; but the old man merely peered over his specs at them and mildly asked:"What you- all laughin''at? |
32606 | Undoing the fastening and lifting the lid of this inner"shrine"there lay revealed-- What? |
32606 | Want to see''em?" |
32606 | Warn''t that the purtiest leetle blow''t ever you see? |
32606 | Was another frightful tempest coming? |
32606 | Was he down in Tony''s Eddy?" |
32606 | Was n''t it a pretty notion to paint the tender green like a real lily''Pad?'' |
32606 | Was n''t none of''em your sons, were they, Ma''am?" |
32606 | Was n''t that funny? |
32606 | Was this the poor, timid Elsa who now faced him with flashing eyes? |
32606 | Wat- ty- mill- youns? |
32606 | We may n''t take the same route you''d have chosen, but-- will you come? |
32606 | Well, ship''s comp''ny, how''d ye like it? |
32606 | Well, what you say?" |
32606 | Well?" |
32606 | Were you sorry for me, along with the rest?" |
32606 | What are monkeys? |
32606 | What are they doing? |
32606 | What can I do to make it pleasanter for you?" |
32606 | What do I say? |
32606 | What do you mean by that?" |
32606 | What do you mean?" |
32606 | What do you mean?" |
32606 | What do you say? |
32606 | What do you say?" |
32606 | What does it mean?" |
32606 | What had happened? |
32606 | What in reason''d ye hire me for, then? |
32606 | What in the world can you, could you, do with a house- boat?" |
32606 | What is in that box you brought along? |
32606 | What is it? |
32606 | What job?" |
32606 | What makes you look so queer, Mr. Corny? |
32606 | What next? |
32606 | What papers?" |
32606 | What sort of a man are you, anyway? |
32606 | What will befall her there? |
32606 | What would these here women an''childern do if it was n''t for Cap''n Jack Hurry a pertectin''of''em? |
32606 | What you doing?" |
32606 | What you found now?" |
32606 | What you jabbering about now? |
32606 | What''ll we do?" |
32606 | What''s doing? |
32606 | What''s the fun of pulling things up that way?" |
32606 | What''s the price, sailor? |
32606 | What''s the use? |
32606 | What''s them new- fangled notions wuth in a case o''need? |
32606 | What''s to hinder you two boys, you and Corny, following along in your wagon yonder with the monkeys''cage? |
32606 | What''s up? |
32606 | What''s up? |
32606 | What--_what_--_is this_?" |
32606 | What? |
32606 | What? |
32606 | Wheah''s it at-- dat t''ing?" |
32606 | Where are the rest? |
32606 | Where can we get a breakfast?" |
32606 | Where they at?" |
32606 | Where you going to stow them all, child?" |
32606 | Where you going? |
32606 | Where''d you find him, our little brother? |
32606 | Where''s he at, quick?" |
32606 | Where''s your gumption at?" |
32606 | Where? |
32606 | Which is the way home?" |
32606 | Who do they suspect?" |
32606 | Who told you he was a captain, or had ever been afloat?" |
32606 | Who''d see any of your new clothes?" |
32606 | Why ain''yo''tote one dese yeah bastics?" |
32606 | Why are n''t you back yonder with the rest? |
32606 | Why are n''t you up and at it? |
32606 | Why are you despoiling my property, trampling my choicest ferns, trespassing upon my private park?" |
32606 | Why did n''t you choose your own familiar friends?" |
32606 | Why do n''t we go aboard and start?" |
32606 | Why do n''t you start-- if it''s you who''s to manage this craft, as you claim? |
32606 | Why do you look so sober all of a sudden?" |
32606 | Why do you look so''sollumcolic?'' |
32606 | Why does he sit sidewise and gloom at everybody, that way?" |
32606 | Why else?'' |
32606 | Why have n''t you come before and why have you come now? |
32606 | Why not take it easy? |
32606 | Why not, Auntie, darling?" |
32606 | Why should he have gone away from the Stillwell cottage before you, in that sudden way you mentioned?" |
32606 | Why should he, whom Gerald had openly despised, be chained to that boy''s bedside? |
32606 | Why should his own holiday be spoiled for a stranger, an interloper? |
32606 | Why were all those people running away so fast? |
32606 | Why worry or hurry? |
32606 | Why, boy, what''s the matter? |
32606 | Why, folks, do you know? |
32606 | Why, for instance, the two Blanks?" |
32606 | Why, what would any of us have done if she had n''t been here? |
32606 | Why-- what-- are you ill, Colonel?" |
32606 | Why?" |
32606 | Will the man who owns that grass like to have him graze it that way? |
32606 | Will they be of any use on a house- boat?" |
32606 | Will you be real careful? |
32606 | Will you go back to the Lily and get more help? |
32606 | Will you see that, lads?" |
32606 | Will you tell her? |
32606 | Will you, dear?" |
32606 | Will you?" |
32606 | Winters?" |
32606 | With-- a-- boat- hook, d''ye hear?" |
32606 | Wo n''t it be grand to have it for a surprise? |
32606 | Wo n''t it cost a great deal to let Billy do that, if hay is worth much?" |
32606 | Wo n''t they laugh at us?" |
32606 | Wo n''t you?" |
32606 | Wonderful, ai n''t it? |
32606 | Woods, says you? |
32606 | Would n''t you, Melvin? |
32606 | Would you like to come and see it done, Eunice?" |
32606 | Would you like to see the monkeys? |
32606 | Would you trust them with me away from home? |
32606 | Would you?" |
32606 | You black idiot, do you reckon a gentleman who can afford to give away a mule''s goin''to take money for a few trumpery water- melons? |
32606 | You do n''t mind, really, do you, Auntie, darling? |
32606 | You do n''t_ see_ cows around, do ye? |
32606 | You have''em, too, do n''t you? |
32606 | You keep real far back, wo n''t you? |
32606 | You should, do n''t you know?" |
32606 | You wo n''t join?" |
32606 | You would n''t like to tell a wrong story, would you, Mamma dear? |
32606 | You would n''t want to make poor darling mamma sick, like the Geraldy boy, would you, Sheba Stillwell? |
32606 | You''ll be my guest, wo n''t you? |
32606 | You''re not half bad, do n''t you know? |
32606 | You''re safe now and-- are you hungry?" |
32606 | You''re so smart with those detestable monks, suppose you go on training''em and exhibit when you get back to town? |
32606 | Your company all back?" |
32606 | Your name''s Calvert, ai n''t it?" |
32606 | _ Afraid!__ I?_ Why that_ is_ a joke, indeed!" |
32606 | _ I cayn''t sell Billy._""Ten dollars?" |
32606 | _ Invited_ him, do n''t you see? |
32606 | _ Mistress?_ Well, I''ll have you to know, you young hireling, that I''m my own master. |
