11058The order was simply to advance, but when Lord Lucan asked him,"How far are we to advance?"
11058There is a pretty girl with that black thing over her head, a mantilla do n''t they call it?
11058There is no examination, is there?
11058They like it better than vodka; curious, is n''t it?
11058We might get the worst of it, and even if we did n''t how should we get back again, and how should we account for having killed our mule- driver?
11058We''ve 300 yards to run to get into the Redan, and when we get in where are we?
11058Well, Jack, how are you?
11058Well, are you thinking of thrashing the Russians?"
11058Well, sir,"turning to another officer,"what is your report of the losses?"
11058What do you say?"
11058What have you been doing to it?"
11058What in the world can they be up to?"

11058What is sudden?"
11058What on earth are the French doing all this time?
11058What on earth are you knocking us about like that for?"
11058What on earth''s to be done?"
11058What''s all this noise about?"
11058When did you arrive?"
11058Where are all the rest; for, of course, in such a great victory, we must have taken, some thousands of prisoners?"
11058Who would have thought that it had been an English town for goodness knows how long?"
11058Why do the young lords ask?"
11058Will one of you go and ask one of them to come up here, telling him how urgent is the need?"
11058Will you be in the stables at seven o''clock?
11058Will you look out of the window and see if the lane is empty?
11058Will you step into my cabin, Mr. Hethcote, and give me full details of this unfortunate affair?"
11058Wo n''t they be surprised, and jolly envious?
11058Would you mind receiving him in your study?
11058You heard him order me, doctor, to fold up a report and attesting statement directed to the Minister of the Interior, and to post them immediately?
11058You''re off duty, are you not?
11058and noticing a tear on his mother''s cheek, he went on,"It ca n''t be those beastly verses, is it?"
11058and what are you masquerading as a Cossack for?
11058are you hit?"
11058exclaimed the officer addressed,"where on earth did you come from?
11058is this man innocent or guilty?"
11058said Jack indignantly,"without any trial, or anything?

11058you here?
32930A complaint, Mr Workman? 32930 Ah, is it so, man?"
32930Ah, what?
32930Ai n''t it bad enough to have this here Froggy? 32930 Ai n''t it enough to know as you''re to come along with us?
32930Ai n''t the poor young officer in distress, and me wanting to desert him? 32930 Am I to have no peace?
32930And both of you wish to enlist in the Grenadier Guards? 32930 And is Stackanoff your commander?"
32930And what about getting back, mate?
32930And what do you intend doing once you get out?
32930And where do you think the fighting will take place?
32930Are you all loaded?
32930Are you game to try the other way?
32930Are you in great pain, my poor fellow?
32930Are you willing to come?
32930Attack what? 32930 Both of you have been in a menagerie,"he remarked with some astonishment,"but surely you-- and he pointed towards, Phil-- have had some education?"
32930But surely there should be sufficient orderlies to nurse and look after the men?
32930But what about the jailer?
32930But what about this here Froggy with the red legs?
32930But you''ll stop and give yer name, Phil? 32930 By the way, Ellis, is there a doctor near?
32930Ca n''t say for certain, but it looks precious like it; I wonder what the glass is doing?
32930Can not you see that I am your officer, and can I not give instructions to my lieutenant without your challenging?
32930Can you make anything out, Tony?
32930Can you not see, fool, that the door is pinned outside? 32930 Can you tell us where the Guards are?"
32930Come up, wo n''t yer?
32930Coming for a picnic with us, are yer? 32930 Corporal Western by any chance?"
32930Could it be possible that, after all, he was indeed the lost child?
32930Did n''t I say I''d do for yer if yer winked yer blessed eye?
32930Did you ever see such a sleepy lot, Tony? 32930 Did you hear anything, Tony?"
32930Do well? 32930 Do you remember Corporal Western and his friend?
32930Do you think he heard the noise below, and has escaped through the trap- door?
32930Do you think we are going to catch it again?
32930Eef ze door open, what happen? 32930 Going to leave that cabbage- eating French monkey?"
32930Got yer rifle loaded? 32930 Had not Greys and Inniskillings led the field, charging side by side at Waterloo?"
32930Halloo, mates,voices sang out,"when were you taken?
32930Have a row, Phil? 32930 He''s kind of tied himself on to us-- made pals of us, yer see,--so I suppose he''ll have to escape with us too?"
32930Here, what are yer up to?
32930Here, what''s that?
32930Here, what''s this you''re doing, Phil?
32930How can you argue like that, Joseph, when you know what the lad has done?
32930How could the poor Sultan be expected to satisfy both parties? 32930 How else should Englishmen attack?
32930How far is the camp away?
32930How long are we likely to be in your charge?
32930How much do you earn a week, my lad, if it is n''t a rude question?
32930How''ll this do, Tony?
32930I''m afraid I''m a shy fellow with girls,he stuttered,"but you''ll stand by me, Douglas, wo n''t you?"
32930Is it the vodka, or did I turn that handle and leave it so?
32930Is there no chance of escape then?
32930It''s jolly comfortable, and ever so much softer than a barrack- bed, ai n''t it, Phil?
32930It''s mighty hot, young un, ai n''t it?
32930It''s no use doing things by halves, is it?
32930Looks like a fairy place, do n''t it, Phil?
32930Mais-- ah, what will ze Russian with ze face severe do to us? 32930 Me, mate?
32930Name, sir?
32930Now what could we do, you fellows?
32930Now, are you ready? 32930 Now, what is going to happen?"
32930Now, what''s to be done, Tony?
32930Now, who''s to do the climbing? 32930 Oh, he is, is he?"
32930Oh, you mean we''ll be off fighting, do you, Phil? 32930 Queer little house, mate, ai n''t it?"
32930Shall we invade Russia, or will our fleets go in chase of the Russian ships? 32930 Something else?
32930That old cove over there might be made of wax; and what''s this a- coming down the street? 32930 That you, Tony?"
32930That you, youngster?
32930Then you have been prisonaire before?
32930Then you think I shall do well to enlist?
32930Tired of your job, lad, are you?
32930To make ze escape from this-- ah-- I do not know''is name, mais-- maison-- oui, maison-- comprenez- vous, monsieur? 32930 To the front?
32930Tommy, what are you grinning at? 32930 Want it all yerself, yer greedy beggar?
32930We could n''t ha''been luckier, Phil, could we?
32930We must get away to- night, do you understand?
32930We''re all four of us in it,Phil answered gaily;"and now how about the stuff?
32930Well, what do you make of it?
32930Whack us, will they?
32930What are them coves over there?
32930What are they about to do to ze prisonaires?
32930What are you troubling about?
32930What can be happening?
32930What can it be?
32930What do those cries mean?
32930What do you want, then?
32930What do you want?
32930What for does monsieur mount ze chimney?
32930What has become of my comrades?
32930What has happened to him?
32930What has happened?
32930What has happened?
32930What have we been doing? 32930 What is all this commotion about?"
32930What is it, monsieur?
32930What is it? 32930 What is the good of entering there?"
32930What is the meaning of this?
32930What is the use of a carriage with a door that does not open?
32930What is this that happens?
32930What is this?
32930What made you take us on such a fool''s errand, Petroff?
32930What now?
32930What orders, Jim?
32930What say, Jim? 32930 What shall we do, Phil?
32930What wo n''t?
32930What''s coming next, Phil?
32930What''s happened? 32930 What''s he done?
32930What''s it all about?
32930What''s that there, sir?
32930What''s that? 32930 What''s that?"
32930What''s the good of asking if they did it? 32930 What''s their game?
32930What''s this? 32930 What''s to be done here?
32930What''s up? 32930 What''s up?"
32930What? 32930 Wheeler, what are you gazing at?
32930When will our turn come? 32930 Where do we go?"
32930Where do you think we are marching to, Tony?
32930Where to?
32930Who are you, then?
32930Who are you? 32930 Who is there?"
32930Who is this?
32930Who''s for a dip?
32930Whose blanket is it then?
32930Why do n''t you look after your boys? 32930 Why do not our horse attack them?
32930Why not sing out to him in his own lingo and tell him to come down?
32930Why, what''s this?
32930Why, who are they?
32930Why? 32930 Why?
32930Yer see, we shall get a chance of seeing most of the fun if there''s a fight, whilst if we was in charge of the ammunition where should we be? 32930 Yer wo n''t, wo n''t yer?"
32930Yes, and what game are you up to, mate?
32930Yes, their ancestors were on that glorious battle- ground; and were they, their descendants, to be kept back now? 32930 You make ze escape, monsieur?"
32930Yus, that''s clear enough, young un, but what about Old England? 32930 Ai n''t that bad enough? 32930 Am I to be disturbed like this because you do not keep a careful watch?
32930And now yer wants to take on another pal?"
32930And the good and beloved Queen Victoria, as she scanned the long lines before her, did she forget what her soldiers might meet with?
32930And what''s happened to yer both since yer was taken?"
32930And where is the defending force?
32930Are these cursed prisoners then to ride upon his majesty''s horses?
32930Are yer hurt, old man?"
32930Are you ready?
32930Are you stealing that barge?"
32930But I thought you would; and now I suppose you''ll be off again soon?"
32930But Joe Sweetman, what would he have said?
32930But how many?
32930But it''ll be a job to get away from these fellows: and what shall we do for food once we are free?"
32930But surely she would not deliberately attempt to deprive the Sultan of his capital?"
32930But what does it matter?
32930But who are you?"
32930But who''s going to run against it if he''s able to keep away?
32930But, if you feel so inclined, tell me how you came to be washed into our harbour?
32930But-- look here, old man, how do we join one another out there in the dark?"
32930By Jove, I wonder what the old boy will do when he sees Hercules dressed like a hen?
32930By the way-- what''s yer name?
32930Ca n''t you keep quiet?"
32930Can you wonder, then, that he is inclined to run riot outside?
32930Could n''t I possibly stay?
32930Did he not try to put an end to the annual procession of the Riddington boys through the town, on the plea that they made too much noise?
32930Did she know of the horrors ever associated with war that must inevitably fall upon some of the devoted fellows standing proudly erect before her?
32930Do n''t we, my comrades?"
32930Do they drag them with ropes and fling the wounded ones to the ground?
32930Do we then murder captives taken in battle?
32930Do yer think all them cavalry of ours will sit still and do nothing?
32930Do you hear?
32930Do you think them fluffy- looking beggars is going to collar us without a little shooting?"
32930Does n''t Mr Ebden admit that he owned up like a gentleman?
32930Does our august master, the Czar, will it that we should take the lives of gallant Englishmen in cold blood?
32930Does the lad lead a happy life in his home?
32930Fortune favours the brave, indeed, for where can history show a brighter example?
32930Have not the enemy many of our brave comrades in their hands?
32930Have to want, shall I?"
32930Have we far to go to- night?"
32930He is aware, though, that Stackanoff is with me, and he will be waiting impatiently for his return?"
32930How dare you?
32930How did you escape?
32930How do you like the life?"
32930How has it happened?"
32930How?"
32930Hullo, where am I?"
32930I did n''t like that, and-- er--""Yes, you did what?"
32930Instead they stared moodily at one another with wide- open eyes which seemed to ask:"How much longer will this misery last?
32930Is it Russia we''re off to?"
32930Is this fit treatment for a British officer?
32930Is this so?"
32930It comes easier to me every day, and who knows what the knowledge may do for me?
32930Let go, will yer?"
32930Look at the chest that redheaded cove''s got on''i m, and do n''t the other hold his nose up?"
32930Meanwhile what had become of our hero?
32930Meanwhile what had happened at the barrier?
32930Now is everything clear?"
32930Now look here, Mr Dook, you''re a pretty fine bird, but where do you come from?
32930Now what about this escape?
32930Now, what regiment will you go for?
32930Now, you fellows,"he went on, after having greeted his canine friend with a pat,"what''s the order for to- day?
32930Once there, what chance shall we have of ever getting back?"
32930Perhaps it will be unnecessary, but we''ve a big fight before us, and who can say that we shall both come safely through it?"
32930Sam, where are you?"
32930See them coves over there, Phil?
32930Shall we let''em go?"
32930Shall we wear them hats, do yer think?"
32930Slip down and get some of that harness, like a brick, will you, Tony?"
32930So you are now a subaltern, and have been taken prisoner for the second time?
32930Surely far more experience than I have had is wanted?"
32930Tell me now, Phil, what you think of that?"
32930That''s it, ai n''t it?"
32930That''s what they''re after now, is it?
32930The harbour is just chock- full of British shipping, and, if that was captured, where should we be without our stores of grub and ammunition?
32930The two who helped you with the flag?"
32930Then again, compared with a heavily- armed stone fort, what is a wooden ship?
32930Then taking the bull by the horns, he advanced a pace and said roughly,"How can I remember the word every night after all these weeks?
32930Then what could be the meaning of this message?
32930Then, as he saw Phil''s anxious face and his preparations for defence, he sprang to his feet, and, grasping his rifle, cried,"Cossacks, is it?
32930There is no other entrance but the trap- door, so how can they be there, unless, indeed, they possess wings?
32930There, did n''t I say so?"
32930This his idle adopted son?
32930This the wilful lad who would never settle down to work, and never take a leading place in his class at school?
32930Wait, though-- ah, was not the first letter` N''?"
32930Was the vicar''s test to be a useless one, for he had trained an adopted son for one purpose only?
32930What are you doing, Tony?
32930What can it be doing out here?"
32930What can our people be doing?"
32930What chance has a youngster in the army, you ask?
32930What could a mere handful of men do in the circumstances?
32930What did the scamp almost call me?"
32930What do I care about their method of reaching here?"
32930What do yer say to a snooze?"
32930What do yer say, Corporal Western?"
32930What do you know of animals, and what class are yer on top of a horse what ai n''t''xactly a camel?"
32930What do you mean?
32930What do you mean?
32930What do you say to our joining the stragglers, who are certain to follow the main body?
32930What does it all mean, Tony?
32930What does the advertisement say?
32930What front?
32930What guns are we to attack?"
32930What have you to say, sir?"
32930What have you two chaps been up to?"
32930What is all this noise about?
32930What is happening, Barrington?"
32930What is that?"
32930What is that?"
32930What is this?"
32930What is your name and your friend''s?
32930What is your name?"
32930What joy it would be to have relations of his own?"
32930What makes him wish to play these pranks?
32930What mattered the odds?"
32930What more do you want?
32930What shall we do?"
32930What was Phil to do?
32930What was that?
32930What was the good of being downcast?
32930What was the unhappy Sultan to do?
32930What would happen if they were to disappear?"
32930What''s all this row about?
32930What''s going to happen to us?"
32930What''s happened?"
32930What''s that kind of saying about idleness?"
32930What''s that over there?"
32930What''s that row about?"
32930What''s to be done, Tony?"
32930Whatever is happening?"
32930When will they clear off and give us a chance?"
32930Where are the men told off to protect this most important harbour and its valuable contents?
32930Where are you coming to?
32930Where can the fools be?
32930Where did it take place, and who paid the money?"
32930Where do yer come from, Corporal?
32930Where does she come in?
32930Who are these two men?"
32930Who are you?
32930Who are your friends?"
32930Who could look into the future?
32930Who could say that luck would not come his way?
32930Who goes there?"
32930Who knows when we shall set eyes on it again?
32930Who sold you?
32930Who''s that?"
32930Whose doing is this?"
32930Why are you kicking us like that?"
32930Why could n''t someone else have been chosen?"
32930Why do n''t you charge?"
32930Why do you not listen, and let me out?"
32930Why does not our general send a boat to race them?"
32930Why on earth does not the commander of our Light Brigade charge them?
32930Why should I die for your foolishness?
32930Why should n''t it be Balaclava?
32930Why should she fight Russia when the row''s between the Czar and the Sultan?
32930Why should that good fortune come his way?
32930Why should we make ze escape?
32930Why, what?"
32930Wild and unmanageable?
32930Wo n''t any of you fellows volunteer?"
32930Would you have the boy a girl?"
32930You quite understand?"
32930You would send Phil to a school for backward and incorrigible boys?"
32930You-- or shall I be the one?"
32930` Them as drinks is certain to get into trouble, and come before the colonel, and what good does it do''em?
32930` What''s the good of larking about as some of these idjuts do?''
32930ai n''t that hard enough?
32930and sha''n''t we catch it when they find out who we are?
32930he went on, clapping his hands,"what need I, Pierre Moutard, fear?
32930said one of them, recovering from his momentary excitement,"what''s this here about bringing a pal out?
32930thought you was for getting out?"
32930up the chimney?"
32930what does he matter?
32930what is this?"
32930where are you?"
32930where would England have been but for lads of his nature?
32930who''s that?"
32930why do n''t yer charge?"
32930you do n''t mean to say that that fine boat has gone down?"
32930your name?
53874A case of jockeying?
53874A date!--what date?
53874A gentleman mounted-- Mr. Caradoc, perhaps?
53874A penny for your thoughts, friend Harry?
53874A sortie?
53874About what is the message?
53874Against him, you mean?
53874Ah, does n''t care to hide her candle under a bushel, eh?
53874Ah, how do you do, Mr. Hardinge-- or shall I have the pleasure of saying Captain Hardinge?
53874Ah, who would not but choose?
53874Ah-- the Irish girl, I suppose?
53874Alone?
53874Alone?
53874Am I in danger, doctor?
53874And Hardinge is missing, too, you say?
53874And for that reason you left us?
53874And he-- he fell by_ your_ hand?
53874And her news?
53874And love too, eh, Estelle?
53874And now that Tom Clavell has gone back to his depôt at Chester, you can scarcely forgive me?
53874And since when have you been engaged to this( bear, I was about to say)--"to this man Tolstoff?
53874And so the fair Estelle threw you over, eh? 53874 And so you do n''t approve of risking your valuable person in the service of the country?"
53874And so you lost money to him? 53874 And so, poor Harry,"said Dora, after hearing the story of that affair,"you had no brave beautiful Sister of Mercy to nurse you?"
53874And that Marshal Canrobert was wounded yesterday?
53874And that one?
53874And the coming fête,said I,"is it in honour of anything in particular?"
53874And the ring given you by-- by the King of Bavaria?
53874And this history-- what is it?
53874And this other medal with the pink ribbon?
53874And what is that?
53874And what of that?
53874And what were the trench casualties?
53874And wherefore?
53874And who is that pretty woman in the sacque and puffed cap?
53874And why did Miss Lloyd refuse an offer so eligible as that of Sir Watkins Vaughan?
53874And why would not my little friend Dora have her Guardsman?
53874And yet you can not love me? 53874 And you are mine, darling?"
53874And you have it?
53874And you love her?
53874And you were hit, Caradoc?
53874And you, Charley, were hit, too? 53874 And yours, friend Sharpus?"
53874And, sir, you visit them?
53874And-- O, pardon my curiosity, dear sir-- you know them?
53874And-- and Miss Lloyd and Dora?
53874Angry-- I with you?
53874Another whom you love?
53874Any mistletoe among them, Miss Dora?
53874Are you well already?
53874As friends only?
53874As your gift and for your sake?
53874Been jilted, had a bill returned, or what?
53874Broken?
53874But Lady Estelle, do you know what these are emblematic of?
53874But he seemed to snatch or wrench something from you?
53874But how in such society?
53874But must it come off?
53874But must you really go to Madeira?
53874But what is there in all this that perplexes you?
53874But what sound is that?
53874But what will not one undergo for love?
53874But who is she?
53874But why is existence worthless?
53874But you did n''t go over Snowdonia with such a girl as Winifred Lloyd?
53874But you have him in your power; you have all the air of a lady of birth and education-- why not come forward and assert your position?
53874But, Winifred-- Miss Lloyd-- why tears?
53874But--"But what, Phil?
53874By Jove, you ca n''t begin too soon-- so why not now?
53874By violence, too?
53874By what strange caprice or whirligig of fortune do I find you here?
53874By what, then?
53874By whom?
53874Call you that good news?
53874Can I assist you-- be of service to you in any way?
53874Can I do otherwise?
53874Can it be otherwise, when it is waged against holy Russia and our good father the Czar?
53874Can it be that you receive my tenderness thus?
53874Can it be,said he, inaudibly,"that the little boy who cried for the moon has made off with it bodily?
53874Can you ask me after what passed between us the other evening, and more especially on yonder terrace, less than an hour ago?
53874Can you ask me why, when you know that I love you, Winny, and have always loved you?
53874Can you ask me?
53874Can you ask me?
53874Can you direct me to the commissariat quarter of the Second Division?
53874Can you remember nothing more?'' 53874 Can you steel yourself to hear bad news?"
53874Can you trust him in this matter?
53874Could you expect it to do so?
53874Could you love me, Valerie?
53874Cross-- I, with you?
53874Dare not?
53874Dear Winifred, my appearance does not shock you, I hope?
53874Did no one open it?
53874Did that person rob you?
53874Did the Alma do that?
53874Did you never do so?
53874Did you not love him?
53874Do I annoy you?
53874Do I require aught to make me think of you?
53874Do I-- or did I?
53874Do not ask me; but we may keep_ you_ as a hostage for him,she added, merrily;"do you agree?"
53874Do not say this,said I, nervously and imploringly, in a low voice;"what is Estelle to me?"
53874Do you admire Mr. Guilfoyle''s singing?
53874Do you know anything of him?
53874Do you know the ladies?
53874Do you mean to infer that you are already engaged?
53874Do you see who is there, Harry?
53874Do you think so?
53874Does he reside hereabout?
53874Does it displease you?
53874Does it please you?
53874Down the cliffs?'' 53874 Employment!--where?
53874Errors perhaps; but by the way, Phil, have you still Miss Lloyd''s miniature about you?
53874Even in the region of Mayfair, you think?
53874Even upon Winifred Lloyd, with her dairy- farms in the midland counties, eh?
53874Except asking again; but tell me, old fellow, have I a chance?
53874Far, indeed, from Sebastopol at least; do you know where you are, sir?
53874Find who?
53874For the East?
53874For what then, darling?
53874For what!--der Teufel!--do you ask for what?
53874For what?
53874Forgive you? 53874 From home?"
53874From you?
53874Gage, did you never amputate?
53874Georgette Franklin-- well?
53874Giddiness, perhaps; but was I agitated?
53874Handsome?
53874Harry, old fellow, how are you?--how goes it? 53874 Have the Third or Fourth Division come yet?
53874Have you any message for-- for----"Whom?
53874Have you ever looked at a portrait till it haunted you?
53874Have you ever seen this officer?
53874Have you no remorse when you think of Miss Franklin?
53874Have you not yet seen it, Estelle?
53874Have you still the locket with the likeness of Winifred Lloyd?
53874Have you wearied?
53874He is an enemy?
53874He says that he is a friend of yours, Harry Hardinge; is he so?'' 53874 He-- who?"
53874His name?
53874How came you to deprive England of the advantages of your society?
53874How came you to know of me and of my despatch?
53874How came_ you_ to be here, sir?
53874How come you to be here, as you have no troops in this quarter?
53874How much longer am I to keep this silence?
53874How should I know, Phil? 53874 How, Herr Captain?"
53874How-- what silence?
53874How-- why do you think so?
53874How-- why?
53874How?
53874How?
53874How?
53874How?
53874How?
53874How?
53874How?--love of change, or change of love?
53874I am not aware, Sir Watkins, that I am either; but please do n''t begin to revert to-- to--"The subject on which we spoke so lately?
53874I am sure, Harry, that I-- that I shall--"What, love?
53874I do n''t know, sir--_do you?_The drummer saluted and left the tent.
53874I have neither; but-- but, Sir Madoc, why so soon?
53874I hope so; but pray what is the news?
53874I lured you?
53874I never jest or trifle with strangers; do you wish to quarrel?
53874I repeat that I love you tenderly and truly; have I not ever known your worth, your goodness--"Is this true, Harry Hardinge?
53874I saw that you were dying to be alone with Lady Estelle,she retorted,"and_ now_ do n''t you thank me?"
53874I shall die of this?
53874I thought you had made something by a mercantile transaction, as you phrased it, when last on the Continent?
53874I trust that your wounds are not painful?
53874I, madam!--why the deuce should I have been agitated?
53874If God spares us to see her,said Lady Estelle,"what will mamma think of this terrible_ fiasco_ of ours?"
53874Ill- conducted, Phil?
53874Impossible-- why?
53874In that case I should have been in no hurry to announce my convalescence,said he, rather pointedly;"may I ask your name-- the first one, I mean?
53874In that skirmish, fought single- handed by you against our Cossacks, they thrust you into the water-- actually into the sea?
53874In the language of the flowers, do you mean?
53874In what can either concern you, at such a time as this especially, when you have not a moment to lose?
53874In what respect?
53874In what,thought he,"am I wanting?
53874Intimately;--and what then?
53874Is Mr. Guilfoyle a musician?
53874Is his wound mortal?
53874Is it reducible?
53874Is it true, Charley, that the Duke of Cambridge has gone on board ship, sick and exhausted?
53874Is it your wife''s?
53874Is not this enough for honour?
53874Is that all?
53874Is there not one for you?
53874It is, then, your home?
53874It was in a sortie, I understand?
53874It will be the ball of the season-- you will be there, of course?
53874Jones, please,said one, a very young staff medico,"will you kindly take off this fellow''s leg for me?
53874Jorwerth,said she softly,"the last time there was such a storm as this was on that terrible night-- you remember?"
53874Little Tom Clavell?
53874May I be permitted to keep it?
53874May I not ask Miss Lloyd to receive enclosures for you? 53874 May I show you the grotto?"
53874Meaning Lady Naseby?
53874Might, Valerie?
53874Miss Franklin, I presume?
53874More than you would say?
53874Most true; but how shall I-- how shall_ we_--ever thank you?
53874My arm-- must I lose it?
53874Need I repeat to you, my dear Harry, how the receipt of your letter caused every heart in the Court to rejoice-- that of Winny especially? 53874 Need I tell you, Sir Watkins-- a Welshman?"
53874Never shall I weary of hearing this admission; but the rumour of an engagement to Lord Pottersleigh?'' 53874 No, Herr Graf,"sneered the German;"do you?"
53874No, certainly not; what on earth can have put such an idea into your head, my good woman?
53874No; that is--"Anything against him?
53874None-- after all your reading?
53874None?
53874Nor Harry Hardinge?
53874Not always_ couleur de rose_, though?
53874Not into the drawing- room?
53874Nothing now, of course-- but-- but--"But what?
53874Nothing, darling-- do you call that nothing?
53874O fie!--or the subject?
53874O, Mr. Hardinge,said Lady Estelle, while grasping the gunwale with both hands, and looking up,"how had I ever the courage to come down such a place?
53874O, what is all this you tell me now, Dora?
53874Of a smashed bone?
53874Of course; what else could he mean?
53874Of what ship?
53874Of what was it that he deprived you by force, before his horse leaped the wall?
53874Of what?
53874On a dead one then, surely?
53874One-- who?
53874Only if_ you_ go, Lady Aberconway-- not unless,replied the trooper, in a low tone;"what or who else should take me there?"
53874Or that you love another?
53874Papa and Dora,said she, in a low broken voice,"on that day when my great grief came--""Which grief?"
53874Pardon me; have I not sworn to love you for ever and ever, though neither of us is immortal?
53874Peasants and serfs, I suppose?
53874Poetry dead?
53874Prince Gortchakoff, then?
53874Shall I go first?
53874She said she did; and what has it all come to? 53874 Should you not like to join him there?"
53874Sir?
53874So my friend Volhonski is taken prisoner?
53874So she has found consolation?
53874So soon?
53874So that is all Sir Madoc''s news?
53874So you are a prisoner of war?
53874So you have quite adopted the Russian idea of Britain?
53874So you were not at the Alma? 53874 So you would like to know what has become of her, eh?"
53874So, after all, you found there was balm in Gilead?
53874Speak-- how?
53874Sunday, 21st August,I repeated;"what can that refer to?"
53874Tears-- why tears, Valerie?
53874Tears?
53874Tell me truly-- has this-- this misplaced passion for me lured you from one who loves you well at home perhaps?
53874That I know well-- I only pitied her; but why do I waste words or time with such as you?
53874The glacis-- was not that madness?
53874The ruling passion?
53874The winner of what?
53874Then how am I to construe your conduct and words?
53874Then it was_ you_, Captain Hardinge, whom I followed so fast and so far from that khan on the Kokoz road? 53874 Then there is yet hope?"
53874Then you quite forgive me, dearest Harry?
53874There is no conquest without the affections,said Ninon de l''Enclos;"and what mole is so blind as a woman in love?"
53874There is nothing very singular in that, I suppose?
53874Think not of me, Lady Estelle; if you are saved, what care I for myself?
53874Think you, Valerie, that any man could see, and only love you thus? 53874 This is very strange-- it has, then, a history?"
53874Though an enemy of Russia?
53874To Estelle Cressingham?
53874To Prince Menschikoff?
53874To Sebastopol?
53874To let you remain or go free were treason to Russia and the Czar; you must therefore be sent as a prisoner of war to Kharkoff, and--"What then?
53874To that wasp of a fellow who is so active, and whose scoundrels have killed so many of our wounded men, firing even on the burial parties?
53874To whom does it belong, then?
53874To whom is she married?
53874Under a flag of truce?
53874Vainly-- why?
53874Very; but you saw her-- when?
53874Wait and hope, dearest, for what? 53874 Wanting more money?"
53874Wary?
53874Well, Caradoc,said I,"is your despatch from the regiment?"
53874Well, Phil,said I, in a low voice,"among those present have you seen your ideal of woman?"
53874Well, Phil?
53874Well, does any one stand in her good graces?
53874Well, it is what the doctor said,persisted Dora;"and if he is wrong can I help it?"
53874Well, yes,said he, hesitating, and a chill came over my heart as I said involuntarily,"Estelle?"
53874Well-- and I you?
53874Were there two?
53874What can happen to make us otherwise?
53874What do you see, Hugh, that you look so earnestly to the front?
53874What do_ you_ say, Harry?
53874What fresh evil tidings,thought I,"does this old Muscovite bring us now?"
53874What has age to do with the matter in view? 53874 What have I done, O God, to be dealt with thus hardly?"
53874What is it to_ you_--to us?
53874What is that officer''s regiment?
53874What is the matter?
53874What is the meaning of this despair?
53874What is the row? 53874 What is the signal for us to advance?"
53874What is to be done, Valerie?
53874What is up, Phil?
53874What is up, sir?
53874What news of our friends in the 19th?
53874What of that, in the world of London? 53874 What of that?
53874What power has this-- your husband, over him?
53874What rubbish is this you speak?
53874What say you to an appointment in Lord Aberdeen''s new Land Transport Corps? 53874 What the deuce do you approve of?"
53874What the deuce is the meaning of this?
53874What the deuce is up?
53874What the devil is up now?
53874What then, mamma?
53874What then?
53874What then?
53874What will Volhonski say?
53874What, Winifred?
53874What-- more?
53874What_ are_ we to do, Mr. Hardinge? 53874 What_ do_ you mean?"
53874When is he ever without one?
53874When may I leave this?
53874When?
53874When?
53874Where are the young ladies?
53874Where is Lady Estelle?
53874Where is it?
53874Where should I have gone-- into the hands of the Cossacks, at Baidar?
53874Where then?
53874Where?
53874Where?
53874Where?
53874Which means lots of tin, I suppose?
53874Which? 53874 Who commands your party?"
53874Who could live with you and not pet you? 53874 Who dared to tell you of this slave girl?"
53874Who the deuce can this brother be of whom she talks so much, and where can she have acquired such capital English?
53874Who the deuce is that officer?
53874Who the dooce is that handsome woman, on whom----( I failed to catch the name)"of ours is so devilish spooney?"
53874Who told you that I did so?
53874Who were they?
53874Who, then, that you are acquainted with knows him?
53874Whom you would marry before the kadi?
53874Why are you so cross with me?
53874Why ask me when you may divine the cause, though I dare not explain-- here at least?
53874Why cling thus to the dead past?
53874Why deprive yourself of a favourite? 53874 Why did he hang him?"
53874Why did he write to_ her_ about this, and not to Sir Madoc or Miss Lloyd?
53874Why did n''t you speak to_ me_, and consult with me, about the matter when at Craigaderyn? 53874 Why did you not think of this before?"
53874Why do n''t you do it yourself, my good fellow?
53874Why impossible? 53874 Why not appeal to this legal man?
53874Why poor?
53874Why should I be so?
53874Why so?
53874Why such inhospitable haste?
53874Why them especially?
53874Why were you so agitated by the sight of Lady Naseby''s carriage?
53874Why, Valerie, dearest, dearest Valerie?
53874Why-- O why, Valerie, when you know that I love you?
53874Why-- O, why?
53874Why-- how?
53874Why-- the roses please-- what was it?
53874Why?
53874Why?
53874Why?
53874Why?
53874Why?
53874Why?
53874Why?
53874Why?
53874Why?
53874Why?
53874Will you make the attempt?
53874Will you marry me, Valerie?
53874With Lady Estelle Cressingham?
53874With so much unintentional point, perhaps?
53874With some dairy- farms in the midland counties, eh?
53874Woronzow''s palace, or château?
53874Would she have him?
53874Would you make love to me through_ him_--through another?
53874Wounded?
53874Yes, Harry; why should we_ not_ be friends?
53874Yes,she replied, with hauteur;"but who are you, that know_ my_ name?"
53874Yes-- why not? 53874 Yes; but why wink so knowingly?"
53874Yes; for may not the same charms, traits, manner, and beauty which lure us to love once, lure us to love again?
53874Yes; what of it, little one?
53874Yet?
53874You are an officer?
53874You are certain of that?
53874You are his wife, madam, and yet-- does he, for purposes of his own, disavow you?
53874You are ready?
53874You are surely not angry with me?
53874You are to stay here for the 1st, I believe?
53874You dare to jest-- to-- to-- to trifle with me?
53874You do not doubt my love for you?
53874You got my letter, Sir Madoc?
53874You have a horse, I presume?
53874You have asked her, then?
53874You have heard nothing of the Lloyds since I left you?
53874You have of course heard the rumour of-- of an engagement?
53874You have quarrelled, then?
53874You knew that we were missing-- lost?
53874You know Sir Madoc''s place in North Wales?
53874You know him, and are certain of this?
53874You remember the night we last met, and parted, in London?
53874You reserve yourself for the evening, probably?
53874You reside at Whitchurch?
53874You speak thus-- you so young?
53874You swim, then?
53874You were in love then?
53874You were not-- well, reconnoitring?
53874You were with us last night in the trenches, Mostyn?
53874You will permit me to keep it?
53874You, my darling?
53874You, my lord?
53874Your husband, madam?
53874Your mamma''s objections?
53874Your thoughts, then, were of me?
53874Your_ brother?_I exclaimed, in genuine consternation.
53874_ Aan coon slaheet nahss?_( Have you any coppers?)
53874_ Aan coon slaheet nahss?_( Have you any coppers?)
53874_ Who_ did you say?
53874_ Whom_ did you say?
53874_ You_ here again?
53874''Then how comes he to be a guest here?''
53874''Why?''
53874( Had I not thought the same thing about Estelle, and deemed that"he who has most of heart has most of sorrow"?)
53874( I was never weary of repeating her sweet name; and what meant this admission, if she declined me?)
53874( If so, was Valerie now in Sebastopol?
53874( Pretty pointed this-- with which-- Phil or me?
53874( Why should Winifred Lloyd refuse and refuse again thus?
53874( Why should compulsion be necessary?
53874?_""Well, then, Harry-- and nothing vexes me.
53874A letter from her, and to_ me_; what could it mean?
53874A stout vivandière of the 3rd Zouaves, while in the act of giving me a_ petit verre_ from her little keg, was taken--""By the enemy?"
53874After a little pause--"May I speak to Sir Madoc on the subject?"
53874All these Valerie might procure for me; but how or where was I to address her again?
53874Am I too rough, too soldierly, too blunt, unwinning, or what?"
53874And by what magic or devilry has he taught you to love him?"
53874And how or when was that engagement to end-- to be brought to a successful issue?
53874And so you know each other--_you two?_"he added, in German, while bestowing a withering glance on me.
53874And what now is Es-- the Marchioness of Aberconway, or Aber- anything- else, to me, Winny, darling?"
53874And what was this girl-- Russian, Tartar, Greek, a Karaite Jewess, or what?"
53874And where were we now?
53874And who could have been a greater coward than I?
53874Are you game for pool to- day?"
53874Awful, is n''t it?"
53874Awkward, is n''t it?"
53874But did the colonel really say all this of me?"
53874But from whom?"
53874But how about this Mr. Hawkesby Guilfoyle?
53874But how came it to pass that such as he was patronised and fostered, as it were, by"the family solicitor,"and patented by being his companion?
53874But how does the atmosphere of Crim Tartary agree with you?"
53874But if this be true, how then about Miss Lloyd; and she is attractive enough?"
53874But tell me, sir, is it true, that-- that he is to be married to the daughter of Lady Naseby?"
53874But there was something in one of your letters that made you laugh?"
53874But why speak of it, to- night especially?
53874But why?
53874But will this pledge to a lady be deemed sufficient?"
53874By Jove, can it be that she is destined for a nunnery?
53874Can it be that the slumber of the body is but the waking of the soul, that such thoughts came to me of what was to be?"
53874Caradoc?"
53874Could I be uncertain?)
53874Could Sir Madoc actually hint that such as he might have a chance of success, when I had none?
53874Could he have acted in secret the part of lover to_ her_, and so flattered her weakness by adulation?
53874Could it be that the earldom and wealth on one hand were proving too strong for love, with the stringent tenor of her father''s will on the other?
53874Could she really have loved me as she said she did, if she was already behaving so coldly to me now?
53874Could such really be?
53874Could the story be real?
53874Could_ his_ attentions be tolerated by such a stately and watchful dowager as the Countess of Naseby?
53874Dare you threaten me?
53874Death stares us in the face, but tell me truly that you-- that you--""Love you in return?
53874Did no memory of sweet Winifred Lloyd come to me in my desolation of the heart?
53874Disdaining to notice either his sneer or the inference to be drawn from his remark, I asked,"What has become of that unhappy creature-- your wife?"
53874Do you know Sir Madoc?"
53874Do you think that-- that--""What?"
53874Do_ you_ think so, Mr. Guilfoyle?
53874Excuse me, Captain Hardinge, but of course you are aware how dangerous it is for you to remain long here?"
53874Guilfoyle?"
53874Guilfoyle?"
53874H. G.''and the date 1st September which Miss Dora Lloyd mentioned when we were at Craigaderyn?"
53874Had Estelle recognised me?
53874Had Hardinge stood in his way?
53874Had I not the same chance and right of competition as this Guilfoyle, though unknown to the"family solicitor"?
53874Had Valerie ever viewed him with favour?
53874Had my love for her been too apparent to others?
53874Had she detected in the distance that little salute?
53874Had she seen us?
53874Hardinge, how d''you do, how d''you do?
53874Hardinge?"
53874Hardinge?"
53874Hardinge?"
53874Hardinge?"
53874Hardinge?"
53874Have I not told you it is useless to speak of love to me, and wrong in me to listen to you?"
53874Have you one in that wretched little island of yours?"
53874Have you put a pot of money on the wrong horse?"
53874He bowed with great courtesy, and said in French,"You have, I understand, a message for me from my Lord Raglan?"
53874How could I help your loving me?"
53874How far had he gone in his suit-- how prospered?
53874How far had he succeeded in supplanting me, and perhaps others?
53874How is my dear pet goat?"
53874How or why was this?
53874How was I to construe the glances I had seen exchanged, the half speech so bluntly made, and so adroitly drowned at the piano?
53874I am no archæologist,"said Lady Estelle--"besides, where is Dora?"
53874I exclaimed, feeling myself grow white with passion the while;"recall this injurious epithet, or--""Or what?
53874I exclaimed,"have you quite forgotten me and the duel with the Prussian at Altona?"
53874I felt that Lady Naseby should instantly be warned of Guilfoyle''s real character; but by whom was this to be done?
53874I instantly drew it off; I felt no compunction in doing so then, and said,"You admire this ring, apparently?"
53874I know not how you came to know of it; but shall I show you the likeness?"
53874I love the lad for his dead mother''s sake-- she was an old flame of mine in my more romantic days-- and does n''t he deserve it?
53874I repeated, breathlessly; and then added passionately and hoarsely,"To whom?"
53874I should not have left the army of my good friend Raglan----""Who presented you with that ring, eh?"
53874I think I could enjoy a quiet weed now; but, Clavell, there was surely an awful shindy in your quarter last night?"
53874I think we know each other pretty well, Winifred?"
53874I was not much given to daydreams or illusions, but, I asked of myself, was not all this most strange if I was not dreaming now?
53874If he-- to use his own phraseology-- was daring enough to enter stakes for such a prize as Lord Cressingham''s daughter, why should not I?
53874If her situation with me was perilous, what had it been if with Lord Pottersleigh?
53874If not, what right had_ he_ to advise me concerning her?
53874If not, who then?
53874If so, what might she-- nay, what must she-- think, and how misconstrue the whole situation?
53874If the Russians, even in time of peace, are ever suspicious of strangers, how was I likely to be received there in time of war?
53874If, when able, I wrote to explain that the two meetings with Mrs. Guilfoyle were quite fortuitous, would Estelle believe me?
53874Is Lady Estelle here?"
53874Is any other fellow spooney upon Miss Lloyd?"
53874Is this the end of all our ballroom flirtations, our Park drives, and gallops in the Row?"
53874It is Winny, papa thinks-- or is it Estelle Cressingham you prefer?"
53874Lady Naseby--"She knows nothing of the secret engagement?"
53874Missed the Alma, eh?"
53874Money was the god of Guilfoyle''s idolatry, and he thought of the wonder of his"fast"friends when they asked,"What did he get with his wife?"
53874Moreover, what the deuce do I want with glory or honour?"
53874Must she be told?"
53874My promotion?"
53874Not off to the seat of war"( he pronounced it_ waw_),"to tread the path of glory that leads to-- where_ does_ old Gray say it leads to?"
53874Now are_ you_ satisfied?"
53874Now, where on earth did you come from?"
53874Of what or of_ whom_ were you thinking?"
53874On tearing the masks from the fallen men, we discovered them to be-- whom think you?
53874Preferred old Potter''s company to yours, for the term of his natural life?
53874Returning, it might be mutilated and disfigured, should I still find her loving, tender, and true?
53874Sebastopol seems to be left quite open on one side, so that the Russians may pour in stores and fresh troops, and go and come at their pleasure?
53874She trembled, and her breath came short and quick as she said,"Who would have dreamt that I--_I_ should have acted thus?
53874Should I endeavour to reach it, and risk or lose all at once?
53874Should I ride after the carriage, or write at all risks, and explain the matter, or commit the event to fate?
53874So these are your quarters?
53874Suppose_ your_ case had been his?"
53874Then I have the honour of addressing the Hospoza Valerie?"
53874Then if such a duty were again offered me, on what plea could I, with honour, decline it?
53874Then we shall have another marriage, and more feasting and harping at Craigaderyn?"
53874Then, in that instance, did one so lovely as Valerie require more than ever a legitimate protector, and who could be more suitable than I?
53874There were lights in several of the windows, and I knew that my Estelle must be in one of those rooms-- but which?
53874This fellow Guilfoyle beats Munchausen all to nothing; but did he not before tell something_ else_ about that ring?"
53874Very funny, is it not?
53874Was Estelle ill, or was their absence from these spectacles part of a system to be pursued by the former?
53874Was I the same man of an hour ago?
53874Was Master Phil Caradoc at the bottom of this?
53874Was it imagination or reality that a kiss or a tress of her hair touched my cheek so lightly?
53874Was it vanity, art, or weakness of intellect that prompted him?
53874Was my Lord Pottersleigh, now Earl of Aberconway, at work; or had they, like many others, perished at sea?
53874Was she so?
53874Was the devil at my elbow, or my evil angel, if such things be, whispering in my ear?
53874Was this Hawkesby Guilfoyle a fool, or a charlatan, or both?
53874Was this reference to"a rumour"merely his senile vanity, or had Estelle ignored something that really existed?
53874Was this the end of my daydreams in Yalta?
53874We shall kneel at his feet, darling Georgie, and implore--""Why not kneel_ now_,"urged Georgette,"and beg his consent and blessing?"
53874Well, major, what is to be done?"
53874Were they but the reflex of some casual remark?
53874Were those dozen words simply the embodiment of his own ideas, or were they her personally expressed wish put literally into writing?
53874Were we yet to meet-- were it but for an hour-- ere war separated us more completely, by sea as well as land?
53874What do you say to this, Estelle?"
53874What do you think the colonel of his old corps says of him?"
53874What fancy had the Countess for him, and why was he tolerated by Sir Madoc?
53874What had I said, or left unsaid?
53874What have I now to live for?"
53874What if Tolstoff should be killed?
53874What is Mr. Caradoc to me?"
53874What is it to mamma-- what to me?"
53874What is up-- is this an anniversary?"
53874What leads you to think so?"
53874What shadow was this that seemed already to be falling on our sunny love?
53874What the deuce can he mean by all these strange hints and out- of- place remarks?
53874What the deuce is in this letter, that it affects you so?
53874What the deuce was she-- were_ we_--to say to all this?
53874What the deuce was to be done?
53874What unknown emotion caused all this?
53874What was it to me whether or not_ she_ saw my name in despatches, in orders, or in the death list?
53874What would take you there-- before coming to us, at least?"
53874What, then, is the matter?"
53874What, then, remained for me to do, but wait the event with patience, or endeavour to seek her out, by throwing myself in her way?
53874What, then, was to be done?
53874When returning, would she still love me, as Desdemona loved her Moor, for the dangers I had dared?
53874Whence the doubt that had sprung up within me, and the coldness that seemed between us?
53874Where are the Scots Royals?"
53874Who the devil are you, and what do you mean?"
53874Who was he?
53874Why deprive it of such care as yours?
53874Why did Winny refuse so excellent an offer as that of Sir Watkins, whom I knew to be a wealthy and good- looking young baronet?
53874Why had I not gone back and inspected the slain in the ditch of the Redan, to see if he lay there?
53874Why had not Estelle''s answers reached me, if she had actually written then?
53874Why is this?"
53874Why should we not continue to descend, as she must soon overtake us?
53874Why was I not yonder, where so many had won glory or a grave?
53874Why was I now seated amid the splendour and luxury of a mess in the Auberge de Bavière?
53874Why was this?
53874Why was this?
53874Why waste time and money in London?"
53874Why, then, should I not ask her to love me?
53874Will she never return to advise us?"
53874Would I see him?
53874Would day never dawn?
53874Would she shed it, or the sacrifice be worth the return?
53874Yet, had she any deeper interest in him than mere acquaintanceship warranted, would she have spoken of him so openly, and so candidly, to me?
53874Yet, if so, why should she be anxious for me to win the estimation of"mamma"?
53874You do n''t want to rejoin, I presume?"
53874You had a despatch for him, I presume, by what fell from you at the Tartar caravanserai?"
53874You know they say--''''_ They_--who?''
53874are you wounded, sir?"
53874asked Mahmoud, glancing nervously at the pretty little slipper;"who, I demand?"
53874asked Sir Madoc, pausing with a slice of cold fowl on his fork;"nothing unpleasant, I hope?''
53874asked Sir Watkins, bluntly;"no bad news from the Crimea, I hope-- eh?"
53874at Craigaderyn Court?"
53874can it be possible you do n''t know?
53874could one be found?"
53874do you really think so?"
53874do you-- this time?"
53874exclaimed her usually placid mother, becoming almost excited now;"why should you touch the wretched creature''s ornament?"
53874exclaimed little Clavell, but can all this be proved?''
53874for do I not leave Craigaderyn by sunset?
53874for what?
53874had I underdone or overdone anything?
53874his lieutenancy is filled up, I suppose?"
53874how hear of your health and welfare?
53874how is it so?"
53874how, at this hour?"
53874how?"
53874repeated Phil, sadly and reproachfully;"do you think so meanly of me as to imagine that I would jest with you or with it?"
53874said I, angrily;"what do you mean now, Caradoc?
53874said I, with tremulous energy;"but to serve me-- how?"
53874said he, in a lower tone;"are not self- love or interest, rather than virtue, the true motives of most of our actions?"
53874said he, taking up a decanter, and applying his somewhat snub nose thereto;"what is this?
53874said;"a bad report of our work laid before the public, or what?"
53874she exclaimed, when, like myself, perhaps she thought of Lady Naseby,"what shall I do?
53874she exclaimed,"how came you by this?"
53874to whom?"
53874were you actually flirting with her?"
53874what do they or you want with that villa at Hampstead?
53874what had I omitted, or how committed myself?
53874what has vexed you?"
53874what is pity?
53874what is up?"
53874what may that be?"
53874what the devil can have happened?"
53874what was he?
53874when I change my name of Lloyd, I hope it wo n''t be for that of Mrs. John Smith or Robinson?"
53874where?"
53874who comes there?"
53874with whom?"
53874would the joys of that time ever return to us again?
53819''And fence?'' 53819 ''James Denzil Carron?''
53819A sailor? 53819 Afraid I was n''t coming, were you?"
53819Ah-- why do n''t they? 53819 Ah-- you agree?
53819Ah-- you''re sure of going, then?
53819All right?
53819An''what''s yore name?
53819An''why?
53819And Kattie is still with her?
53819And Seth?
53819And do you consider he did right to go away like that?
53819And he really is as big a man as he led us to believe that night?
53819And he''ll come here?
53819And how about the horses, Jim?
53819And how am I to tell who from which? 53819 And how did she seem?
53819And how did you fare at Carne?
53819And how did you manage to get here at this time of day?
53819And how do you feel about it?
53819And how does Sir Denzil treat her?
53819And how''s my horse?
53819And if she would not?
53819And if the old man dies? 53819 And if you never solve the puzzle?"
53819And in the French army?
53819And is her daughter still alive?
53819And meanwhile Sir Denzil allows the youngsters to run to seed?
53819And not an over- pleasant one, you suggest? 53819 And our paternal?"
53819And suppose I prefer to let them run wild for the present?
53819And the Mere? 53819 And the conditions?"
53819And the mother-- the one who lived?
53819And they?
53819And this Lord Deseret?
53819And to whom did his surmises point?
53819And was that first marriage genuine?
53819And we two were born after he''d left?
53819And what about Jack?
53819And what are the circumstances?
53819And what did she say?
53819And what did you do?
53819And what do you wish, child?
53819And what does he do with himself? 53819 And what does her brother say to it-- and your grandfather?"
53819And when shall we get home, Seth?
53819And where do we go?
53819And where is Colonel Carron, then?
53819And where is he now?
53819And where is he? 53819 And where were they going?"
53819And where''s Kattie?
53819And where''s my friend Kattie? 53819 And where''s old Jack?"
53819And wherever has he been all this time?
53819And which of you is Lady Susan Sandys''s boy?
53819And which of you is the elder? 53819 And who is Gracie?"
53819And who was it was playing Providence to them like that?
53819And why did n''t he stop to see the result of his damned stupidity? 53819 And why not Denzil?
53819And you are both set on going?
53819And you believe she could solve the question that is troubling us all, if she would?
53819And you do n''t think there is any entanglement there?
53819And you do not remember your mother?
53819And you got through whole?
53819And you have no feeling for her at all?
53819And you know nothing about your mother?
53819And you really think it was Ralph took Kattie away, Jim?
53819And you really think we shall be dragged into war, Charlie?
53819And you''ll see to my horse?
53819And you''re all alone? 53819 And you''ve no idea which is which?"
53819And you?
53819And you?
53819And your father? 53819 And----?"
53819Any chance of any fun to- night?
53819Any one else?
53819Any woman?
53819Are they dead?
53819Are they sick? 53819 Are we safe here, Seth?"
53819As regards your son?
53819As you say, my boy-- if he can be proved legitimate?
53819Aw reet?
53819Ay?
53819Bad news, Kennet?
53819But did n''t it hurt dreadfully, Jim?
53819But how could a woman such as that exercise any influence in such a matter?
53819But what are you doing here, Kattie? 53819 But what on earth has she got to do with our boys?"
53819But, Grace, where on earth can you keep him?
53819Ca n''t you see I''m saving you trouble by taking him off your hands?
53819Ca n''t? 53819 Can I get you anything, or make you more comfortable?"
53819Can I see Sir Denzil?
53819Can I see Sir Denzil?
53819Can you be our father?
53819Can you make them wait? 53819 Can you suggest anything, Kattie?"
53819Can you use any money?
53819Can you?
53819Captain Warren?
53819Carr''ns, are you? 53819 Carron?"
53819Charles Eager, eh? 53819 Could he?"
53819Could n''t we go down some night and see some of it?
53819Cuts twingy?
53819Dead?
53819Dear lad, where have you been?
53819Deseret?
53819Did I not write to Menchikoff, Calverly, soon after they were taken? 53819 Did I tell you about my load of boots?"
53819Did she live through it?
53819Did we lose many?
53819Did you hear all about your poor old dad, Seth?
53819Did you hear anything as to casualties, sir?
53819Did you see them? 53819 Did you steal''em?"
53819Do n''t you know? 53819 Do they never exchange prisoners?"
53819Do you know East London?
53819Do you know that Canrobert lost three thousand of his men up in the Dobrudscha?
53819Do you know who it was, Seth? 53819 Do you know?"
53819Do you play?
53819Do you understand Spanish?
53819Does Gracie know anything about it all?
53819Does your grandfather know you have this out here?
53819Dom yo''I What d''yo''want a- spyin''here for?
53819Eager? 53819 End, my dear fellow?
53819Failing that, who comes in?
53819For me or for him?
53819Frenchmen, eh? 53819 Gambling?--and frivolling generally?"
53819Good heavens, boy, do you mean to say you do n''t know who your own mother was?
53819Got what? 53819 Had you any quarrel with him previously?"
53819Han yo''thowt o''something?
53819Hard at work, old chap?
53819Have you bread? 53819 Have you gone right through it?"
53819Have you said anything to your grandfather about this matter?
53819He has been good to you both?
53819He has got some news at last?
53819Heavy? 53819 Hello, Jim boy?
53819Hillo? 53819 Hot work, was n''t it?"
53819How are things shaping? 53819 How are you mounted?
53819How are you, Kattie?
53819How did it come to you?
53819How did you come to make_ her_ acquaintance?
53819How do you feel now, my dear?
53819How have you stood the nights? 53819 How is my brother?"
53819How old is it?
53819How will you go?
53819How''s Bob? 53819 How?"
53819I have been trying to induce one of them to go back to France with me----"Which one?
53819I saw him win somewhere about that at a house in St. James''s Street and----"And how much did you lose?
53819I suppose you know them apart?
53819I understand you are prepared to give your parole not to attempt to escape, or to hold any communication with the outside?
53819I''ll come too?
53819If he is not here-- where?
53819If he married yo'', why did he leave yo''like this?
53819Is Madame English?
53819Is he like the Emperor?
53819Is hoo gone?
53819Is it you, Kennet?
53819Is madame in?
53819Is she here?
53819Is she pretty?
53819Is that home, Seth?
53819Is that your boat? 53819 Is that your father?"
53819Is there any one else you like as well as either of them?
53819Is there nothing we can do?
53819Is there to be a campaign, then, sir?
53819Jack is your brother?
53819Jack seems undoubtedly the more able,he would reason it out,"but what does that point to?
53819Jim is the hero of the sand- boat----"Ah-- and is the boat gone again?
53819Jim, my dear boy,she would say, on occasion,"are you comfortable on that chair?"
53819Jim? 53819 Jim?"
53819Kattie dear, will you promise me to stop with madame?
53819Kattie,he said at last, in a deep hoarse voice,"has it been my fault?
53819Kattie? 53819 Kattie?"
53819Kill her? 53819 Know me?"
53819Margaret?
53819Married ye?
53819May I come again to see him?
53819May I go in and have a look?
53819Me? 53819 Mme Beteta, will you do something for me?"
53819Mr. Kingsnorth? 53819 Must I, Jim?"
53819Never wear any clothes?
53819No more news of Kattie?
53819No news, Charlie?
53819No; what was it about the boots?
53819No? 53819 Now then, what''s the meaning of all this?"
53819Now then, who are yo'', and what''n yo''want here?
53819Now what mischief have you been getting into?
53819Now what''s the meaning of all this? 53819 Now"--fixing the two women with a blazing eye--"what''s the meaning of it all?
53819Now-- why----?
53819Oh well, bring him up, and, Joyce-- see to my things, will you? 53819 Oh, Gracie, and Margaret and George Hempath, and Ralph Harben----""Who is Ralph Harben?"
53819Oh, why did you do it, Kattie?
53819Oh----?
53819Oh? 53819 Oh?"
53819Old Seth? 53819 Progress, Sir Denzil?
53819Promising, are they, Bob?
53819Quixande?
53819Quixande?
53819Quoi donc? 53819 Ready for yore dinner, lads?
53819Really and truly, Gracie?
53819Seth Rimmer''s?
53819Shall I give the boy some, sir?
53819Shame?
53819She believed in her own marriage, of course?
53819So you''ve both come, after all?
53819Sums?
53819Take you?
53819Talking of spies,said another, sliding off on an inference,"did you hear of the one who walked about our lines for half a day as cool as a cucumber?
53819That infernal old woman up at Carrie could crack it if she would, I suppose?
53819That is somewhat awkward for the succession, is n''t it? 53819 That you, Jim?"
53819That''s it, is it? 53819 That''s rather awkward, is n''t it?
53819That''s the stronghold, is it? 53819 That?
53819The French army?
53819The boys? 53819 The deuce you do?
53819Then you''re just where you were as to which is which?
53819There are occasional truces for picking up the wounded, are there not?
53819There is no doubt about our going, then, sir?
53819There?
53819They are both meant for the army, of course?
53819They''re not at all a bit heavy?
53819Things any better than they used to be?
53819Thought we were n''t coming?
53819To France?
53819To what end?
53819Trouble? 53819 Twins, eh?"
53819Two heads each?--or was it smugglers now, or real bold buccaneers?
53819Two of you, are there?
53819Two of you, eh? 53819 Um?"
53819Vous vous rendez?
53819Was Lady Susan Sandys our mother, sir?
53819Was ever inoffensive parson burdened with such a baggage before?
53819We are to fight Russia on behalf of Turkey?
53819We had gone to see her dance----"Both of you?
53819We stuck on barebacked, anyway,said Jim;"and what does it matter how you eat?"
53819Well, Jack, how goes it? 53819 Well, boys, what''s the matter with you?"
53819Well, why should n''t she, if they make her look pretty?
53819Well-- and how did she receive you?
53819Well?
53819Well?
53819Well?
53819Well?
53819Well?
53819Well?
53819What about this?
53819What are those boys up to now? 53819 What are you thinking of it?"
53819What are your total forces up there now?
53819What brings you here?
53819What could you do if you did find her?
53819What did you say?
53819What do you make of it? 53819 What do you wish?"
53819What does Gracie say?
53819What does Mr. Rimmer do? 53819 What good?
53819What in Heaven''s name are you? 53819 What is he like?"
53819What is it?
53819What is it?
53819What is that, sir?
53819What is the meaning of this, sir?
53819What is your name and standing?
53819What kind of a man, Joyce?
53819What on earth can have taken the boy? 53819 What shame?
53819What the deuce are we to do with her?
53819What would you, my friend? 53819 What would you?
53819What''s happen''t, Seth Rimmer?
53819What''s the matter with those boys?
53819What''s the problem? 53819 What''s this?"
53819What-- Kattie and Bob? 53819 What-- both of them?"
53819What?
53819What_ have_ you been doing? 53819 Whatever brings you so far away from home?
53819When are you going over?
53819When can I take him home?
53819When did she marry?
53819When did you see him last?
53819Where are we, Seth?
53819Where are you hurt?
53819Where are you living?
53819Where can he have got to, Jack?
53819Where can th''lad ha''gotten to now? 53819 Where did you get it?"
53819Where is Colonel Carron?
53819Where is my father, du Bourg? 53819 Where were you?
53819Where''s Jack?
53819Where''s Jim?
53819Where''s that blood- vessel?
53819Where''s yore manners, lass?
53819Where''s your little girl?
53819Where''s your manners, Kattie?
53819Where?
53819Where_ can_ the boy be? 53819 Which of these babies is Lady Susan''s child?"
53819Which of you is Carron?
53819Which of you is Jack and which is Jim? 53819 Which of you is Lady Susan Sandys''s boy?"
53819Which was the elder? 53819 Which?"
53819Who can they be?
53819Who else was there when you all used to play together on the sands?
53819Who is he?
53819Who is he?
53819Who is it is a- missing?
53819Who is it?
53819Who is she?
53819Who lives in that cottage we passed to- day, down along the shore by the Mere?
53819Who the deuce is Lady Susan Sandys?
53819Who were the men? 53819 Who wo n''t let you?"
53819Who''s going to fight?
53819Who''s it,''Kattie?
53819Who''s''him''?
53819Who-- Menchikoff? 53819 Who?"
53819Whose baby is that downstairs?
53819Whose mistake was it? 53819 Why are n''t you up there yourself?"
53819Why ca n''t they let things go on as they are? 53819 Why do n''t they?"
53819Why do you want to fight over a dead rabbit?
53819Why does n''t he get up?
53819Why not to- night? 53819 Why on earth should she want to see_ me?_"asked Jack.
53819Why the wrong one, sir?
53819Why, what do you mean? 53819 Why?
53819Will I not? 53819 Will I?"
53819Will it be Carne yo''mean, sir?
53819Will they be well treated?
53819Will you beg her to see me for a moment?
53819Will you let me introduce myself, Dr. Yool, seeing that the vicar is not here to do it? 53819 Will you look into it?"
53819Will you please to come to madame''s room, sir?
53819Will you wait for us?
53819With Prince Napoleon?
53819Worse and worse? 53819 Would it be possible for me to get in under a flag of truce?"
53819Would she come to me too?
53819Yes, Mester Jim, there''s wrong, great wrong, an''I cum to see if yo''--if yo''--if---- Where''s Kattie?
53819Yes-- well?
53819Yes; they''re worth tackling, are n''t they?
53819Yes?
53819Yes?
53819Yo''re going back to London?
53819Yo''re non stopping?
53819Yore sister?
53819You are armed? 53819 You are certain to go?"
53819You are thinking of this war?
53819You can make them?
53819You design them for the army, I presume?
53819You did? 53819 You do n''t know, for certain, that she has come to London?"
53819You do n''t think I''ll miss anything by going, sir?
53819You feel the same? 53819 You found her?"
53819You had no chance of seeing how the old woman received him, I suppose, sir?
53819You have been in Russia, madame?
53819You have met her since?
53819You have travelled much, then, madame?
53819You knew the old man, sir?
53819You know him, sir? 53819 You know how to read and write, I suppose?"
53819You know what we want to know?
53819You mean this war they''re talking about?
53819You mean war?
53819You owe him much, then?
53819You really still hope, then?
53819You really think it will be war?
53819You think England will join us in case of necessity?
53819You think she looks flighty? 53819 You think she''ll fly away?"
53819You think we''re in for a winter campaign, sir?
53819You understand, I suppose?
53819You were, then, in the mad charge at Balaclava, perhaps?
53819You wo n''t? 53819 You''d know him again, I suppose?"
53819You''ll bring old Bob along too?
53819You''ll come back and sit with me?
53819You''re sure he wo n''t speak?
53819You''re sure they have n''t been getting into trouble?
53819You, M. Carron? 53819 You, also, are hoping to go to the war?"
53819You, missie?
53819Your grandfather? 53819 Your grandfather?
53819Your mother-- or mine, Jim? 53819 _ Jim_ Carron?"
53819''Any relation of my old friend Denzil Carron of-- what- the- deuce- and- all was it now?''
53819--at sight of the lad''s eager face--"Like to take a hand too?
53819?"
53819Ah, Mrs. Lee, you are ready for us?"
53819An official came hurrying up with a brusque,"Now then, what''s all this?"
53819An''I towd her to shut up, and what was it had started her o''that tack?
53819An''what are yore graces, an''what are yo''eager for, missie?"
53819Ancient Briton?
53819And Gracie had just gasped,"But did n''t it hurt dreadfully, Jim?"
53819And Gracie?
53819And I suppose you''re growling like the rest at having nothing to do?"
53819And Jack asked anxiously:"Have you any news for us, sir?
53819And Jack----?
53819And among other things he happened to ask Jim:"Have you sent word home that you''re coming?
53819And get me a cup of coffee, will you?
53819And had they lived through all those hideous months at Varna, and come across the sea only to repeat them outside Sebastopol?
53819And he never suggested you should play?"
53819And he wants me?"
53819And how have you been keeping, Jack?
53819And is your father alive still?''
53819And just before they started for Carne she got hold of him for a minute, and asked:"Jim, what''s the trouble?
53819And now----""Has she chosen Jack?"
53819And she?
53819And the father of the boys?"
53819And the grim old man upstairs?
53819And what does Miss Gracie say about it?"
53819And what had she to say for herself?"
53819And what made you think they were Frenchmen, Jack, my boy?"
53819And what the deuce are you preaching about?"
53819And which of you is Lady Susan Sandys''s boy?
53819And which on yo''killed to- day?"
53819And why insoluble?"
53819And you do n''t know what the trouble was?"
53819And you, Jack?"
53819And you, Jack?"
53819And you?"
53819Another tangle?"
53819Any fish there?"
53819Any more coffee there?
53819Any typhus about?"
53819Anybody left here that I know?
53819Anything else?"
53819Are any of our people left?"
53819Are there many more like this at the house?"
53819Are they in fun----""Shall I read them, dear?"
53819Are they twins?
53819Are we going on?
53819Are you an Englishman, sir?
53819Are you boys or tiger- cats?"
53819Are you on duty?"
53819Are you up on leave?
53819Be yo''dead, Mester Jim?"
53819Been fighting again?"
53819Besides, they are both undoubtedly your grandsons----""And which succeeds?"
53819Besides, why on earth should our grandfather bring us up as brothers if we are n''t?
53819Bit of the Stone Age?"
53819But Nolan was hot to have us go----""Is it true that he and Lucan were not on good terms?"
53819But how can I possibly tell them?"
53819But how could that be when we are both the same age?
53819But how do you come to be here, Seth?"
53819But the old woman only shook her head, and asked, in the tone of one using an irrefutable argument:"Where is he?"
53819But then they came to soberness with the inevitable question:"And Jack?"
53819But to what purpose?
53819But what can we do?
53819But what use could cavalry be in a siege?
53819But where''s everybody?
53819But which?
53819But who on earth would ever have imagined boys of that age in such ignorance of matters so vital?
53819But who, in the name of Heaven, could have foreseen so perplexing a result?
53819But why do you fight for them, then?"
53819But why should any one kidnap him?"
53819But you must give her time----""Is there any one else?"
53819CHAPTER XIX WHERE''S JIM?
53819CHAPTER XXII WHERE''S JACK?
53819Can he not help to solve your difficulty?"
53819Can we go and see him after breakfast?
53819Can you be here at eight o''clock?"
53819Can you care enough for me to make me the happiest man in all the world?
53819Can you make a woman speak against her will-- and her interest?"
53819Can you swim?"
53819Can you tell me anything of Cornet Carron?
53819Can you think of anything better?"
53819Can you write?"
53819Carron?"
53819Carron?"
53819Carron?"
53819Child all right?"
53819Children?
53819Could n''t we take him somewhere else?"
53819Denham?"
53819Did brains ever win a girl''s heart?--or any one else''s?"
53819Did n''t they like her like that?
53819Did she know it was you?"
53819Did you doubt it?"
53819Did you get damp?"
53819Did you know her too, sir?"
53819Did you know them?"
53819Did you make them?"
53819Did you see Nolan''s Arabs?"
53819Did you win?"
53819Did you-- were you-- was your marriage with madame all in order?"
53819Do n''t you like me like this?
53819Do n''t you think you''d better wait here till I bring you word?"
53819Do you call this fighting fair?"
53819Do you follow me?"
53819Do you know what you''ve done by running away like that?"
53819Do you live in that hole?"
53819Do you lose many_ en route?_""Not two per cent, sir.
53819Do you mean that we are not brothers, you and I?
53819Do you play?"
53819Do you row it all by yourself?"
53819Do you two go to school?"
53819Does that mean that we are not both Lady Susan Sandys''s boys?
53819Eager, no progress?"
53819Eager,"he would say,"no progress yet?"
53819Eager,"said Jack,"Will you tell us about our father?
53819Eager?
53819Eager?"
53819Eager?"
53819Eager?"
53819Eager?"
53819Eager?"
53819Eager?"
53819Eager?"
53819Eager?"
53819Eager?"
53819Eager?"
53819Eager?"
53819Eager?"
53819Eager?"
53819Eager?"
53819Eager?_""_ Men, women, and children-- bodies and souls_."
53819Eh, what?"
53819Fear?
53819Fishing?"
53819Going home, I suppose?"
53819Has he a wife,--any children?"
53819Has he never discussed these things with you?"
53819Has madame met you both?"
53819Have some grog?
53819Have they made up their minds to fight?"
53819Have you any idea what we''re fighting about, monsieur?"
53819Have you any news?
53819Have you brought us any word from Gracie?"
53819Have you considered the idea of his having been kidnapped, Sir Denzil?"
53819Have you eaten?
53819Have you enough money with you?"
53819Have you had anything to eat?"
53819Have you?"
53819Havena set eyes on him sin''---- Didn''yo''go out tegither?"
53819He approached one, lifted his hat, and asked in French:"I wonder if monsieur could afford me some information?"
53819He caught her at it, and asked abruptly,"What the devil are you staring at, and what the deuce keeps you hanging round here?"
53819He is an unusually strong- willed and determined man, bigoted too, and believes absolutely in his mission----""What is that, sir?"
53819He killed a man in a gaming quarrel long ago and had to live abroad, and he''s been there ever since."?
53819He snuffed, still staring at them, and then said quietly,"What the deuce is the meaning of this?"
53819He would n''t be likely to go to Knoyle, would he?"
53819How are you for leave?
53819How can there be two?"
53819How could any girl hesitate for a moment between them?
53819How could he let any other man take her from him?
53819How could you think any of us could do such a thing?"
53819How did you become such capital shots?"
53819How did you get here?"
53819How do you find them, Jack?"
53819How does he know you?"
53819How is Sir Denzil?"
53819How is that?"
53819How is your wife to- day?
53819How long since?"
53819How much is it?"
53819How should she?
53819How soon will Jim be back?
53819How to solve the puzzle?
53819How was it?"
53819How was it?"
53819How would that do?
53819How would you like it yourself?"
53819How would you like to come back to France with me, youngster?"
53819How''s Kattie getting on?"
53819How''s old Jim?"
53819How?
53819I had to come----""But why, Kattie?
53819I suppose you can fig out all right?"
53819I suppose you could n''t make one of them Earl of Quixande and the other Carron of Carne?"
53819I suppose you have n''t seen him about anywhere?"
53819I wonder how soon the medico would let you go, too, Jack?"
53819I''d swap them all for----""For what?"
53819I''ve been to his tent----""_ Mon Dieu!_--and you have not heard?
53819If he is their boy would they treat him so cruelly?"
53819If they took one of the children with them, which would it be?
53819Is Jim here?"
53819Is Seth about?
53819Is he a student?"
53819Is he alive?
53819Is he still alive?"
53819Is it all over, as they say?"
53819Is it anything very bad?"
53819Is it possible that has become known to those interested, and this has been done to point you back to Jack?"
53819Is it possible we are all on a false scent and she is nearer home all the time?
53819Is it the high result of two blue- blooded strains, or the enriching of a blue blood with a dash of stronger red?
53819Is n''t it awful?"
53819Is n''t that it, Gracie?"
53819Is that Ralph Harben?
53819Is there anything else you wish to ask?
53819It always has been Denzil, has n''t it?"
53819It''s alive?"
53819Jack and I are both in love with Gracie----""And who is Gracie, now?"
53819Jack was reading in the kitchen----""Jack?
53819Jim, did you say your verse this morning?"
53819Jim?
53819Just got here?"
53819Kattie told me you''d come on----""Kattie?"
53819Kennet?"
53819Kenyon?"
53819Lady Susan''s child?
53819Lee?"
53819Lee?"
53819Lee?"
53819Lucan''s?"
53819May I ask you about another matter?"
53819May I take them in hand?"
53819May n''t a pair of hungry men come all the way from London to see you without being accused of such iniquities?"
53819Measles, jumps----?"
53819Miss Gracie well?"
53819Monsieur----?"
53819Much jollier without, is n''t it?
53819No?"
53819Not a rag?
53819Nothing was too good for such friends- in- need[ t?]
53819Nothing wrong, is there?"
53819Now he said:"Do you feel able to come along with me to Caine, my boy?
53819Now then, how shall we play?"
53819Now then, who are you?"
53819Now then, who''s for next mount?
53819Now, how shall I set about it?"
53819Now, what are your names?"
53819Now, what valid grounds have you for believing your brother to be in any way better circumstanced than yourself?"
53819Now, which is Jim?"
53819Now, which school would you advise-- Rugby, Harrow, Eton?
53819Now-- what''s wrong?"
53819Old Seth what?"
53819On the whole I''m inclined to think Providence served us well in making me an ally, eh?"
53819Once she stopped and flung up her hands as though demanding-- what?--a blessing-- a curse-- the righting of a wrong?
53819One could not ask by letter, I suppose?"
53819Or what are you?"
53819Over- studying?--softening of the brain?"
53819Rafe, my lad, what do you say to a bareback?"
53819Rimmer?"
53819Rimmer?"
53819Rimmer?"
53819Rimmer?"
53819Shall I go up?
53819She is pretty, you say?"
53819So perhaps you wo n''t mind telling me why you stole my things and where they are?"
53819Suppose you keep one and I take one?
53819That you?"
53819The law?
53819The question is, which?"
53819Then, with a catch in her breath and a startled look in her eyes, she jerked:"Charlie-- what do they mean?
53819There could be no objection to that, I presume?"
53819There is n''t anything wrong with them, is there?"
53819They are surely close in age?
53819They do say''at----""Yes?"
53819To what purpose?
53819Two?
53819WHERE''S JACK?
53819WHERE''S JIM?
53819Want a bit of sugar?
53819Was he in it?"
53819Was he really alive?
53819Was that i''th''big charge?"
53819Was the Colonel hit?"
53819Well, what do you advise next?"
53819Well?"
53819Were they not, then, both Lady Susan Sandys''s boys?
53819Were you in it?"
53819What I ask of you is to bring all your intelligence and acumen to bear on the solution of my problem-- which is which?"
53819What am I to do with you?"
53819What are their names?"
53819What are they up to now?"
53819What are you to him, boy?''
53819What could have made you think I could do such a thing, Seth?
53819What could he mean?
53819What delay will it entail?"
53819What did you do?"
53819What did you say to her Mester Jim?"
53819What do they say about the boys?
53819What do you mean?
53819What do you say to it all, doctor?"
53819What do you say?"
53819What do you suggest?"
53819What does Miss Gracie say to it all?"
53819What had they done since they landed, except prance about and look pretty?
53819What have you been up to, to make you so thoughtful of the old man?
53819What is it now-- and who is your friend?
53819What is it?"
53819What name, monsieur?"
53819What on earth do you mean?"
53819What the deuce do you mean by that, Mrs. Lee?
53819What trouble, doctor?"
53819What was his name now?--Earnest-- Eager?
53819What was your idea?"
53819What were you thinking of?"
53819What will happen then?"
53819What will you do when you grow up?"
53819What would we have grown up into if you had n''t?"
53819What''n yo''want''em for?"
53819What''s amiss with him?"
53819What''s brought yo''home?"
53819What''s got them?"
53819What''s it all about?"
53819What''s that?
53819What''s that?"
53819What''s the matter now?"
53819What''s the matter with me?
53819What''s the news from home?
53819What''s wrong?"
53819What, in Heaven''s name, was it, that it should haunt him in this fashion?
53819What?
53819What?
53819What?"
53819What_ could_ the old boy mean?
53819Whatever for, Charlie?
53819When can you come down to Carne?"
53819When do you return?"
53819Where are they?"
53819Where did you find him?"
53819Where do we meet, and when?"
53819Where do you find yourselves then?
53819Where have you been all this time?
53819Where have you been?"
53819Where is Denzil?"
53819Where is Sir Denzil?
53819Where is it going to take you?"
53819Where is young Seth?"
53819Where would the old man''s death land things?"
53819Where you been?"
53819Where''s everybody?"
53819Where''s my horse?"
53819Where''s old Jim?"
53819Where?
53819Which is the better man?"
53819Which is to be Carron of Carne when the time comes?"
53819Which of us is the elder?"
53819Which would the stronger blend run to-- activity of mind or activity of body?"
53819Which?
53819Which?
53819Which?"
53819Who am I?"
53819Who are you?
53819Who cares?"
53819Who could have done this thing?
53819Who is that they''ve put there?"
53819Who is the father of this other child?"
53819Who lives there, and what kind of folks are they?"
53819Who told you the story?"
53819Who was that?"
53819Who would be the next to go?
53819Who''s the new youngster I saw with you on Sunday?"
53819Who''s the other?
53819Who?"
53819Whose infernal folly brought that poor thing rattling over the country in that condition?
53819Whose is the other child?"
53819Why could n''t someone do something before they were all bowled over?
53819Why did n''t you come straight in when you landed?
53819Why do n''t you let your men do it?
53819Why does he?"
53819Why had n''t they been out all over the country bringing in supplies?
53819Why has n''t your grandfather let you learn to swim?"
53819Why have n''t you learnt to swim?"
53819Why in thunder could n''t you open your mouth sooner?''
53819Why is he in the French army?"
53819Why should it end?"
53819Why should it kill her?
53819Why the deuce could n''t they let us have some tents?
53819Why the deuce had it stopped?
53819Why, what''s up?
53819Why?
53819Why?"
53819Will you bring your brother to see me sometime?"
53819Will you come and see me?"
53819Will you come and see me?"
53819Will you come up, sir?"
53819Will you go with her and see to it all?"
53819Will you have us?"
53819Will you tell him, when you see him, that his old friend, Jack Pole, was asking after him?''
53819Will you wait a moment, sir?"
53819With what feelings did she regard these brilliantly- arrayed young warriors?
53819With whom?"
53819Wo n''t you sit down, my dear?"
53819Would it mean an end of the terrible struggle, and release, and home?
53819Would you have a Carron break his pledged word?"
53819Would you have him break it?"
53819Would you like to meet her?
53819You agree with the necessity for my going?"
53819You asked,''Which of you is Lady Susan Sandys''s boy?''"
53819You can ride?''
53819You can see to the child all right, I suppose?
53819You do n''t approve of that?"
