23499 | Had the cougar got away, or was he still within the thicket? |

23499 | I knew that his shanty sot on high ground, but how wur I to get thur? |
23499 | I saw this with feelings akin to terror, for I knew that the snow would soon blind the trail; and how, then, was my friend to follow it, and find me? |
23499 | I thought of the floating alligator, of its intestines-- what if I inflated them? |
23499 | I was now safe from all immediate danger, but how was the affair to end? |

23499 | Is it from this that he derives his trivial name? |
23499 | Is it the quality of the blood or the thickness of the skin that guides to this preference? |

23499 | Should we at once turn our faces to the settlement, how were we to subsist on the way? |

23499 | The animals must have passed since it rained; but why not immediately after, in the early morning? |
23499 | The doctor, what of him? |
23499 | The next moment was heard Redwood''s voice crying aloud--"Look out thur? |
23499 | The provision saved from the wreck would not last us a week, and when that was consumed how were we to procure more? |
23499 | The tracks were fresh-- the road a large one-- thousands of buffaloes must have passed over it; where were they now? |
23499 | Thur made since the rain, yu''ll admit that?" |
23499 | Upon what do they feed? |

23499 | Why was Ike''s rifle not heard if he saw the bear treed? |
23499 | and if it does?'' |
23499 | cried Redwood, who was first up to the waggon,"whar did ye see''t?" |
23499 | d''you say?" |
23499 | ejaculated Ike,"whur kid the varmint a gone?" |
23499 | in what manner, mio padre?'' |
23499 | starve? |
23499 | what are ye hollowin''about?'' |
23499 | what is it?'' |
23499 | what is to be done?'' |
23499 | where?" |
23499 | you will exclaim,"a wild boar in the forests of Missouri? |
60633 | A big bear? |
60633 | AY, WHERE WERE THEY? |
60633 | And finding us gone, what then? |
60633 | And suppose you did not; are you the sort of warrior that shoots another in the back? |
60633 | And why not? |
60633 | Are you hurt, my darling Edith? |
60633 | Are you strong enough to stand this hard ride? |
60633 | Ay, where were they? |
60633 | But how are we to find them? |
60633 | But how are we to know such fords? |
60633 | But suppose you and I or my father meet, or you have the chance to harm my mother and little sister, Edith? |
60633 | But what meant your course toward me yesterday? 60633 But what will become of you?" |
60633 | Can it be that I have shaken them off at last? |
60633 | Can it be that you have scented a deep place in front and want to save me from a bath? |
60633 | Can you stand it, father? |
60633 | Do n''t you catch on? 60633 Have you noticed those bucks on the top of the ridge yonder?" |
60633 | How did you find it out? |
60633 | How do you do? |
60633 | How do you feel, father? |
60633 | How far are we from Wounded Knee? |
60633 | How long have they been there? |
60633 | How many do you think are out there now? |
60633 | How was it, Nick? |
60633 | How? |
60633 | I never dreamed of this; can you forgive this dreadful mistake? |
60633 | I wonder what has become of them? |
60633 | I''ll do anything I can, my lad, but what is it? |
60633 | If I only knew where they were, if alive, I would guide this escort from Wounded Knee to their help----What was that? |
60633 | In what way? |
60633 | Is he better and stronger now? |
60633 | Is he not in danger? |
60633 | Is he? |
60633 | It can have but one meaning,muttered Brinton, with a throbbing heart;"someone is in peril: can it be_ they_?" |
60633 | Kindled for what purpose? |
60633 | Must we cross that? |
60633 | No; look at that thin line of smoke; do n''t you see something peculiar? |
60633 | Oh, there is Wolf Ear? |
60633 | Oh, where is he? 60633 That''s what I would like to know; I am worried to death, Nick; ca n''t you help us?" |
60633 | They are on the watch for us, of course; how far away do you judge the trail to be? |
60633 | Thus we meet, Brinton,he said in his low voice;"will you come forward and shake hands?" |
60633 | True; but how can such a thing succeed? 60633 We are enemies"CHAPTER V."What will be their next step?" |
60633 | We ca n''t tell about that; are you stronger? |
60633 | Well, Wolf Ear, I can only say I am sorry that you should have been carried away by this error----"By what right do you call it error? |
60633 | What are they doing? |
60633 | What are you doing here, Nick? |
60633 | What are you saying? |
60633 | What do you propose to do? |
60633 | What does it matter,asked his mother in turn,"so long as we can not see them? |
60633 | What has that to do with this? |
60633 | What is the matter, Hugh? |
60633 | What is the matter? |
60633 | What is the meaning of that? |
60633 | What is this revelation? |
60633 | What made you leave before I got back? |
60633 | What will Brinton think? 60633 What will be their next step?" |
60633 | Where is it? |
60633 | Where were the squaws and children during the fight? |
60633 | Where? |
60633 | Whom do you suppose I saw? |
60633 | Why do you do that, Hugh? |
60633 | Why should I shake hands? |
60633 | Why, Brint, is that you? |
60633 | Will they suspect that we have been this way? |
60633 | You believe in the coming of One to save your people-- why should not we place faith in the coming of our Messiah? |
60633 | You grieve me more than I can express,replied the father;"are you sure you are not mistaken?" |
60633 | You must be mistaken; for, if that were the case, why did he ride out here alone? 60633 Ah me, what will become of father, ill and weak as he is? |
60633 | An expression of scorn passed over the face of the scout as he made answer--"Where was they? |
60633 | Ay, where were they? |
60633 | But how are we to escape them?" |
60633 | But what is the other point you wish me to hold in mind?" |
60633 | But where are the folk?" |
60633 | But where? |
60633 | But who can say how soon he, too, shall not be thus cut down with mother and little Edith?" |
60633 | CHAPTER V."WHAT WILL BE THEIR NEXT STEP?" |
60633 | Can it be possible that he is going to get well after all?" |
60633 | Did n''t he want to see me? |
60633 | Do you see that light away to the south?" |
60633 | How could I forget them so long?" |
60633 | How do you feel now?" |
60633 | I am so sorry; is n''t he with you?" |
60633 | I wonder----"He held his breath a moment, and then only whisper--"I wonder if they have not already visited our home?" |
60633 | If so, the question might well be asked what was meant by this extraordinary behaviour of the red men? |
60633 | Oh, how can I be thankful enough? |
60633 | Then he rode forward and asked--"Was Nick badly hurt?" |
60633 | There''s no question that a big lot of''em was killed, and how was it to be helped? |
60633 | Was it not more likely that he came to learn whether we needed protection? |
60633 | What will Brinton think?" |
60633 | Where are they? |
60633 | Where then was the hope of eluding the hostiles, who were clinging so persistently to his track? |
60633 | Where under heaven can the folk be? |
60633 | Why did n''t he come with you? |
60633 | Why did not Wolf Ear, when he saw he could not reach his pony in time, halt and bring his gun to bear on his fierce pursuer? |
60633 | Why did they not conceal themselves until the fugitives rode directly into their arms? |
60633 | With only a brief comment on what had been told him, he said, starting up--"But, Nick, of what have I been thinking? |
60633 | Wolf Ear fixed his eyes upon the wondering Brinton, who, walking forward and stooping down, asked in a choking voice--"Is all this true, Wolf Ear?" |
60633 | You had to abandon everything?" |
60633 | You have heard of the battle at Wounded Knee Creek, I suppose?" |
60633 | You understand what_ that_ means, of course?" |
60633 | did he hurt you?" |
60633 | she asked;"are you ill?" |
60633 | the brother groaned,"is it too late to save her?" |
60633 | what have I been doing?" |
60633 | what is the meaning of that?" |
60633 | what''s the matter, Jack?" |
60633 | what''s up now?" |
60633 | where are you?" |
60633 | whispered the youth;"is n''t that smoke?" |
42307 | ''Are you? 42307 ''Landlord,''I exclaimed, as I entered the bar- room,''where can I hire a horse for two or three days? |
42307 | ''Wal, an''what o''that?'' 42307 ''Whar do you hail from, stranger?'' |
42307 | ''Whar''s your hoss?'' 42307 ''What sort of a looking man is he?'' |
42307 | ''What''s the matter, landlord?'' 42307 ''Where''s my hoss?'' |
42307 | ''Why have n''t you arrested him before this time?'' 42307 ''Why, do n''t you know?'' |
42307 | Are you all right? |
42307 | But how do we know where these holes are? |
42307 | But where is the moose? |
42307 | Dick, will you lend me your trap? |
42307 | Do n''t you hear something? |
42307 | Do n''t you know that when they are travelin'', the hindermost ones step exactly in the leader''s tracks? 42307 Had any supper, youngsters?" |
42307 | Hain''t had any supper yet I reckon? |
42307 | How are you, youngsters? 42307 How can you tell?" |
42307 | How de do youngsters? |
42307 | How do you feel now, youngster? |
42307 | How do you feel, Frank? |
42307 | I believe I had something of a fight with that moose, did n''t I? |
42307 | I say, Frank, where are you? |
42307 | I wonder if that is what Brave heard? |
42307 | I wonder what the folks will think, when they see us coming home in this rig? |
42307 | I wonder where Brave is? |
42307 | Is it a wonder, then, that I hate an Injun? 42307 It was a narrow escape, was n''t it?" |
42307 | Now, what shall we do with these rascals? |
42307 | See here, youngsters,exclaimed the trapper, as the boys came up,"what''s all this yere?" |
42307 | Shall we give them their guns? |
42307 | The''Ole Settler''do you mean? |
42307 | There warn''t no time for talkin''or sayin''how de do?'' 42307 Wal, youngster,"said Dick,"how do you feel now?" |
42307 | Wal,said Uncle Joe, as they arose from the breakfast- table,"what do you youngsters kalkerlate to do first?" |
42307 | Well, we got the moose, did n''t we? |
42307 | What are you boys doin''out in these woods this time o''night? 42307 What did you youngsters fetch them ar tarnal varlets back here for?" |
42307 | What for? |
42307 | What have you got on them sleds-- your plunder? |
42307 | What made you do that? |
42307 | What should I do? 42307 What''s the matter with George?" |
42307 | What''s the matter with the dog, I wonder? |
42307 | What''s the matter, I wonder? |
42307 | Where did they go to? |
42307 | Where did you buy that skin? |
42307 | Who''s that a comin''there? |
42307 | Why did n''t you muzzle him? |
42307 | Why do n''t you shoot? |
42307 | Why not? |
42307 | Why not? |
42307 | Why, Frank, how are you? |
42307 | You do n''t s''pose them Injuns stole the traps, do you? |
42307 | You do n''t s''pose you can tell by the looks of a red- skin''s track which way he is goin'', do you? 42307 ''Ar the black mustang any better hoss than the gray king?'' 42307 ''_ Carrajo!_ what does this mean?'' 42307 And what could he have done if he had been disabled in the depths of those woods, so far from any human being? 42307 As I was rising from the table, the hostler entered the room, and said:''What be the matter with your''orse, sir? |
42307 | At length the latter said:"They stole your traps, did they, an''shot the hound, an''you follered''em up an''ketched''em, did you?" |
42307 | But he gave you fits, did n''t he? |
42307 | But where''s that trap gone to?" |
42307 | But where''s the black fox you were going to bring back with you? |
42307 | Dick replenished his pipe and prepared to rest, after his tale was completed, when Frank suddenly inquired:"Dick, how came that scar on your face?" |
42307 | Did you catch him?" |
42307 | Did you receive my letter?'' |
42307 | Do n''t you know that that bar could have chawed you up in a minit?" |
42307 | Do yer see this? |
42307 | Do you see that scar on his flank? |
42307 | Does n''t it make a fellow feel comfortable, to lie here and listen to the storm, and know that he is securely sheltered? |
42307 | Goin''to ketch the painter, ai n''t you?" |
42307 | Harry shrugged his shoulders, and answered:"If you are going in for a fight, just count me out, will you? |
42307 | Have n''t we tried that game? |
42307 | He be so lame he can''ardly walk?'' |
42307 | He looked them over and over several times, and finally inquired:"Frank, do you know what has become of all my fox traps? |
42307 | How do you come on now, youngster?" |
42307 | How long could he and Brave have withstood his attacks? |
42307 | How many of them do you suppose there were?" |
42307 | I guess you are a stranger in these parts, ai n''t you?'' |
42307 | I guess you hain''t hearn tell of him, have you?'' |
42307 | In a few moments, George and Archie entered, and the latter inquired:"Who caught that white buck?" |
42307 | Now, I s''pose you think I war beat at the Injun''s own game, do n''t you? |
42307 | Purty soon some one yelled out:"''Who goes there?'' |
42307 | Supposing that a pack of those fellows should get after us to- night, would n''t we be in a fix?" |
42307 | The guide answered the salute, an''asked the man, in Spanish:"''Are you alone, Josà ©?'' |
42307 | Then Bastian, with five hundred men, will be here at midnight?'' |
42307 | Then making a slight motion toward me, which, I made believe I did n''t notice, he asked:"''But the American?'' |
42307 | Wal, purty soon I poked my head over a log, an''peeked through the bushes; an''what do you think I seed? |
42307 | What do you say?" |
42307 | What have you got?" |
42307 | What if his gun had missed fire, or he had only wounded the panther? |
42307 | What shall we do?" |
42307 | What would you have thought if we had follered them thieves for a week afore we found''em? |
42307 | Which road is he going to take?'' |
42307 | Why did n''t you come arter me?" |
42307 | Wo n''t you give a fellow some thing to eat?" |
42307 | Would you have any objections to good company?'' |
42307 | You got my letter all right, you say? |
42307 | You see, youngsters, where that big limb stretches out? |
42307 | You''re always getting a fellow into some scrape or other, ai n''t you?" |
42307 | what''s that?" |
42307 | what? |
42307 | what?" |
42307 | whither bound?'' |
12170 | And that they buried the bulk of their gold somewhere back near the third fall? |
12170 | And you discovered no fall? |
12170 | And you''ll bring your mother? |
12170 | And you''ll come back as soon as you can? |
12170 | Anything in it? |
12170 | Are n''t you going to look in the pack? |
12170 | Are you coming, Wabi? |
12170 | Are you hit-- bad? |
12170 | Are you sure-- you can reach the chasm? |
12170 | But what if they had been Woongas? 12170 By George, what do you suppose it means?" |
12170 | Ca n''t you stay-- and join in the campaign? |
12170 | Can we keep the skin? |
12170 | Can you make it, Rod? |
12170 | Did n''t he show fight? |
12170 | Did n''t_ you_ shoot? |
12170 | Did you ever have a dream that bothered you, Rod? |
12170 | Do you suppose they would follow? |
12170 | Does n''t the chasm continue east? |
12170 | Does the stove smoke? |
12170 | Give me a lift on the arm, will you? |
12170 | Have you any hot water? |
12170 | How do you know? |
12170 | How far away is it, Muky? |
12170 | How far did you travel down the chasm? |
12170 | How far, Wabi? |
12170 | How is that for cheerful news, Rod? |
12170 | How is that, Muky? |
12170 | How many shells have you got, Rod? |
12170 | How much farther, Rod? |
12170 | How? |
12170 | I wonder-- if that-- is Wolf? |
12170 | If that were so, why should they have fought to the death for the possession of the map? |
12170 | If the gold is seventy- five or a hundred miles away, why were those men here, and with only a handful of nuggets in their possession? 12170 Is a mink worth much?" |
12170 | Is it a good one? |
12170 | Is it bad? 12170 It is n''t a joke?" |
12170 | It was an awful jaunt, was n''t it, Muky? |
12170 | James Bay is practically the same as Hudson Bay, is n''t it? |
12170 | Looks queer, does n''t it? |
12170 | Muky, you lend me a hand with the bones, will you? 12170 Not so bad as we thought, eh, Rod?" |
12170 | Sent Minnetaki away? |
12170 | Shot? |
12170 | Shot? |
12170 | Then you believe we are far enough away from the Woongas? |
12170 | We can start pretty soon? |
12170 | We''re going to live in it? |
12170 | What does Mukoki mean by''wolf night''? |
12170 | What has gone wrong? |
12170 | What is it, Mukoki? |
12170 | What is it, Mukoki? |
12170 | What is it, Wabi? |
12170 | What shall we do-- to- morrow? |
12170 | What time did you get in? |
12170 | What were you doing last night? |
12170 | What''s the matter with them? |
12170 | What''s up? |
12170 | Where is Mukoki? |
12170 | Who-- did it? |
12170 | Why did n''t they ambush us? |
12170 | Why do you build those little houses? |
12170 | Will you come, too, Mukoki? 12170 Will you let us see the treasure?" |
12170 | Wo n''t it-- smother us? |
12170 | Wo n''t you stay, Rod? |
12170 | You can find your way back to camp alone, ca n''t you? |
12170 | You hurt-- bad? |
12170 | You saw the camp? |
12170 | You shoot? |
12170 | You''ll come back by the time the ice breaks up? |
12170 | You''re better? |
12170 | A hundred and five dollars in a night is n''t bad, is it?" |
12170 | And why would not the Woongas penetrate beyond this mountain? |
12170 | As the last notes died away the cheers that had been close to his lips gave way to the question,"What does that mean?" |
12170 | Breakfast is sizzling hot, everything is packed, and here you are still dreaming of-- what?" |
12170 | But how could he keep it preserved until their return, months later? |
12170 | But where had they discovered the gold? |
12170 | But why had they quarreled? |
12170 | But you do n''t expect me to believe that it snowed enough yesterday afternoon and last night to cover this cabin, do you?" |
12170 | Can you hold the gun?" |
12170 | Could Minnetaki have been here? |
12170 | Could he hold out? |
12170 | Could that crumpled bit of bark hold the secret of the lost mine? |
12170 | Did not Mukoki realize this? |
12170 | Did that chasm hold the secret of the dead men? |
12170 | Did the Woongas not fear pursuit? |
12170 | Did you ever notice that a half of one of his ears is gone? |
12170 | Did you have anything left over from your dinner on the trail to- day?" |
12170 | Did you see anything?" |
12170 | Do n''t you think so? |
12170 | Do you mean it?" |
12170 | Do you suppose she would care?" |
12170 | Eh, Mukoki?" |
12170 | Had Mukoki or he come to join him? |
12170 | Had Rod and the old Indian been attacked? |
12170 | Had she made that footprint in the snow? |
12170 | Had the mysterious spy, or some of his people, waylaid and killed him? |
12170 | Had they passed it among some of the black shadows behind? |
12170 | Have you noticed our last night''s trail?" |
12170 | He knew that she would be glad-- but how glad? |
12170 | He stopped, and his voice betrayed his uneasiness as he asked:"How far do you think we have come?" |
12170 | Ho, Muky, put on the steak, will you?" |
12170 | Ho, Muky,"he called to the old Indian,"cut this fellow up, will you? |
12170 | How could the door be locked within, and the window barred from within, without there being somebody inside? |
12170 | How could they live in this endless desert of snow? |
12170 | How wide was the ledge along which they were traveling? |
12170 | Hunt her up, will you, Rod?" |
12170 | Is it bad, Mukoki? |
12170 | Is it possible that the gold played out-- that they found only what was in the buckskin bag?" |
12170 | Is n''t it luck?" |
12170 | It was not fear, it was not lack of courage, but-- What was there just beyond those cedars, lurking cautiously in the snow gloom? |
12170 | It''s all-- what do you call it-- bosh? |
12170 | Looks pretty yellow, does n''t it? |
12170 | Maddened by the thought that his beloved Wabi was in the hands of merciless enemies, was the old pathfinder becoming reckless? |
12170 | Might he not discover some clue that would lead to a solution of the mystery? |
12170 | Now do you see why we would like to have a difference in the tracks? |
12170 | Or might he hit Minnetaki? |
12170 | Or were they relying upon the strength of their numbers, or, perhaps, planning some kind of ambush? |
12170 | See that mountain yonder? |
12170 | See that tree-- heem birch, with bark off? |
12170 | Should he follow the trail, or would it be safer to steal along among the rocks of the opposite wall of the chasm? |
12170 | Should he use it? |
12170 | Suddenly Rod asked:"Where is Wolf?" |
12170 | Suddenly he asked:"Did Minnetaki ever tell you-- anything-- queer-- about Mukoki, Rod?" |
12170 | Suddenly, without giving a thought to his speech, there shot from Rod,"Is that the way you scalp people?" |
12170 | They''ll see him, wo n''t they?" |
12170 | Was Wabi dead-- and burned in those ruins? |
12170 | Was it Wabi? |
12170 | Was it danger? |
12170 | Was it for the possession of that bark instead of the buckskin bag that the men had fought and died? |
12170 | Was it possible that he could not find it? |
12170 | Was it possible that something had happened to him? |
12170 | Was it possible that the old warrior had discovered a wilder country than that through which he had passed in the chasm? |
12170 | Was it possible that they believed the hunters would not hasten to give them battle? |
12170 | Was it possible that they had given up the pursuit-- that their terrible experience in the dip had made them afraid of further battle? |
12170 | Was n''t that Mukoki''s whistle?" |
12170 | Was that a cry he heard far ahead? |
12170 | Was this fact in itself not significant? |
12170 | What cause had there been for that sanguinary night duel? |
12170 | What could they find to eat? |
12170 | What did it mean? |
12170 | What do you think of it?" |
12170 | What do you think, Mukoki?" |
12170 | What for go again into wolf trap?" |
12170 | What might not happen here, where everything was so strange, so weird, and so different from the wilderness world just over the range? |
12170 | What mysteries might not these grim walls hold? |
12170 | What part had he taken? |
12170 | What was more logical than that? |
12170 | What was the mystery that lurked in the blackness of yonder forest? |
12170 | When their companion returned, he said:"We had better split up this morning, had n''t we, Muky? |
12170 | Where could they find water to drink? |
12170 | Where was Wabi? |
12170 | Which way, Mukoki?" |
12170 | Who had fired the five shots? |
12170 | Who was the other person in the chasm? |
12170 | Why could it not be preserved in what white hunters called an"Indian ice- box"? |
12170 | Why had they fought? |
12170 | Why had they neglected this most valuable part of their spoils? |
12170 | Why was Wabi worried? |
12170 | Would Mukoki never shoot? |
12170 | Would he_ never_ shoot? |
12170 | You no miss?" |
12170 | You no tremble? |
12170 | You remember that when you and I examined the skeleton against the wall we saw that it clutched something that looked like birch- bark in its hand? |
12170 | _ Why had they fought?_ He even found himself repeating this under his breath as he began rummaging about. |
12170 | had lost the trail? |
13905 | A festival in which these friends may share-- these friends who saved my life? |
13905 | Ah, is it so? |
13905 | Am I too big to learn? |
13905 | And did they beat you then? |
13905 | And what would become of the Animal Kingdom then? |
13905 | And who are you who dare oppose me? |
13905 | But what will you do? 13905 But whither? |
13905 | But you, my father,--for so I must call you still,said John;"who are you, and how came you to be living in the forest?" |
13905 | Ca n''t you see that the boy is not here? 13905 Could I do it too?" |
13905 | Dare you hear more, O King? |
13905 | Did you care so much for his gorgeous clothes and jewels, his horse and band of followers? 13905 Do all animals know you?" |
13905 | Do they beat you much? |
13905 | Do you belong to them? |
13905 | Do you know to whom you speak? |
13905 | Do you not know that this is a moment of life and death? |
13905 | Do you remember? |
13905 | Do you think I need your protection? 13905 Does my son still live?" |
13905 | For me? |
13905 | For what ill deed, I pray? |
13905 | Have you forgotten,said John gently,"how once a stable sheltered the greatest King of all among the humblest beasts? |
13905 | Have you got my boy, Gigi the Tumbler, among them? 13905 Have you overtaken no one on foot?" |
13905 | How could they allow that bad man to be their king? |
13905 | How dare you say such things to me, your King? |
13905 | How did you learn? |
13905 | How have this vagrant and his vile beasts found entrance to my palace? 13905 I never saw any before, but how can one help loving these dear little pets,--and the lovely bird?" |
13905 | Is it safe to leave you here alone with this wild beast? |
13905 | Is that all? |
13905 | Is the King so wicked? |
13905 | May we not rest now? 13905 Not enough?" |
13905 | Oh, how could the people forget their King and the holy man who had been good to them? |
13905 | Oh, will he not grow big and eat us up, my father? 13905 Shall not die?" |
13905 | Shall we go on a journey together, you and I? 13905 The people?" |
13905 | Was there nothing to prove that this is the same child? |
13905 | Well, what have you? |
13905 | Well, you did come back, did n''t you? 13905 What are you doing here, little lad?" |
13905 | What are you wearing about your neck? |
13905 | What do you want? |
13905 | What does this mean? |
13905 | What does this mean? |
13905 | What does this mean? |
13905 | What has happened? |
13905 | What has he done that is bad? |
13905 | What have you to say for yourselves? |
13905 | What is this coming down the highroad? 13905 What is this?" |
13905 | What know you of the past? |
13905 | What means all this? |
13905 | What shall I do? |
13905 | What shall we do? |
13905 | What will he think of Gigi? |
13905 | What''s that? |
13905 | What''s this? |
13905 | When did you begin? |
13905 | Where did you get this? |
13905 | Where hast thou been so long, good dog? 13905 Where is the silver piece which I gave you? |
13905 | Where shall I go? 13905 Who am I? |
13905 | Who are you? 13905 Who are you? |
13905 | Who are you? |
13905 | Who are you? |
13905 | Who are you? |
13905 | Who can mistake him in that suit, the very one we gave him? 13905 Who is he?" |
13905 | Who knows what all this may mean? 13905 Why did he call John a mountebank?" |
13905 | Why do you live away from men? |
13905 | Why do you treat me thus? |
13905 | Why do you try to help me? |
13905 | Why do you want to learn? |
13905 | Why is this girl allowed here? |
13905 | Why should we speak of him? |
13905 | Why, what can I do? |
13905 | Will you not end this parley and slay them all? 13905 Will you not question these fellows further?" |
13905 | You are better, my son? |
13905 | You are better? |
13905 | And for what purpose?" |
13905 | And what happened? |
13905 | And what new pet hast thou brought for my colony?" |
13905 | And what of them?" |
13905 | And why do the people allow him to be their king?" |
13905 | And why do the people shout my name and seem to love me so much?" |
13905 | And will you be my guide, as you were once before, good Brutus?" |
13905 | As John says, there is the Animal Kingdom-- what is to become of that?" |
13905 | But how could he do it? |
13905 | But how was he to know which way to go? |
13905 | But now would they retrace their steps to look for him? |
13905 | But now, what was to happen next? |
13905 | But tell me, I pray you, where I may find the good Hermit who healed the Prince''s wound? |
13905 | But what could they do? |
13905 | Can this boy dispute the words of these men?" |
13905 | Could they be after him already? |
13905 | Did they do that to you?" |
13905 | Did you find anything to admire in their talk and manner and looks? |
13905 | Do you know who I am?" |
13905 | Do you not recall how, ages ago, the people treated the best Man who ever lived? |
13905 | Have they turned your head, foolish boy? |
13905 | Have you brought me word from him?" |
13905 | How came he by this token?" |
13905 | How came they here, I wonder? |
13905 | How can a bad man have friends? |
13905 | How did you come by him?" |
13905 | How did you get here so soon? |
13905 | How then can you delight to kill?" |
13905 | If animals were treated so, how must the poor and lowly people fare at the hands of their lords and masters? |
13905 | In Heaven''s name, what does it all mean? |
13905 | In sight of all these people will you add more deaths to your record?" |
13905 | Is it likely he would have come so far as this, the poor tired little lad?" |
13905 | Is that all?" |
13905 | Is this all you have to show for market- day? |
13905 | Let us give him at least supper and a shelter for the night, Giuseppe?" |
13905 | May we all sleep in your stable? |
13905 | Not Tonio; not Cecco; not the Giant? |
13905 | Oh, what should I do then?" |
13905 | Shall we take these little friends on a wonderful pilgrimage? |
13905 | Some went away, broken- hearted; who knows where they may be now?" |
13905 | THE TALISMAN CONCLUSION ILLUSTRATIONS THE THREE TUMBLERS GIGI RUNS AWAY HAVE YOU GOT MY BOY? |
13905 | The murmur of the crowd swelled into a shout,--"Who is he? |
13905 | Then the old man asked him in the tongue which Gigi knew,"Are you hungry, lad?" |
13905 | They gazed, too, at the handsome yellow- haired boy, and whispered among themselves,"Who is he? |
13905 | Was it a wolf? |
13905 | Was it the wolf that had howled? |
13905 | Was that what the creature meant? |
13905 | Was there still something more to fear? |
13905 | Was there to be no end of his troubles? |
13905 | Were the mighty so cruel to one another,--to children and women and aged people? |
13905 | What could my father mean by that?" |
13905 | What has he done?" |
13905 | What have I tried to teach you? |
13905 | What magic have you, boy?" |
13905 | What shall I do?" |
13905 | What shall we do with you?" |
13905 | What was he to do? |
13905 | What will you do?" |
13905 | What would he be doing in my cart, anyway? |
13905 | Whence do you come? |
13905 | Where did they get you, Gigi?" |
13905 | Where have you been, and what do you bring there?" |
13905 | Where is the money?" |
13905 | Which of you does not know and love it?" |
13905 | Whither are you going?" |
13905 | Who are you who interrupt our hunt and stand between us and our quarry? |
13905 | Who are you who talk so wisely, and who wear that silver Cross upon you?" |
13905 | Who can he be?" |
13905 | Who has been hurting you, my son?" |
13905 | Who is the lad? |
13905 | Who was this bending over him in the dim light? |
13905 | Why do we waste words? |
13905 | Why is not the signal given?" |
13905 | Why not? |
13905 | Will you come? |
13905 | Will you help me?" |
13905 | Will you let him be lost again?" |
13905 | Will you let us sleep in your stable, friend?" |
13905 | Will you never be coming home?" |
13905 | Will you not heed that warning, lest more ill befall?" |
13905 | Will you not love her as I do?" |
13905 | Will you not take heed lest the Lord punish you further for your sins?" |
13905 | Will you stay here with the Prince, or will you go back with me? |
13905 | Will you try what your own skill and youth may do? |
13905 | You shall have a bed and supper, fair boy; but what of these?" |
13905 | [ Illustration:"Have you got my boy?"] |
13905 | blustered the King,"and why not, pray? |
13905 | exclaimed the man,"who are you who travel with this strange company?" |
13905 | he cried,"Who is this lad? |
13905 | he cried,"have you heard or seen nothing? |
13905 | said John,"how do you know so much, my father?" |
13905 | that will be sport!--Have any other teams passed you on the road?" |
21728 | And do Peigans,continued Cameron,"come from a far country to trade with the white men_ with nothing_?" |
21728 | And your friend Henri? |
21728 | Are they near? |
21728 | Are ye hungry? |
21728 | Are you happy, my dog? |
21728 | Ay, that was n''t much, was it? |
21728 | But what if he''s bin taken prisoner? |
21728 | But what, mother? |
21728 | But why do n''t you ride up to them, Joe,inquired Dick,"and make peace between them and the Pale- faces, as you ha''done with other bands?" |
21728 | But would n''t it be as well to put the poor brute out o''pain? |
21728 | Can ye trust yer dog keepin''back? |
21728 | Can ye` behold''the_ tree_? |
21728 | Can you speak English? |
21728 | Chucklin''? 21728 Could it be the grave of Joe or Henri?" |
21728 | D''ye see the little lumps on the shoulder o''each horse? |
21728 | D''ye think it''ll be good? |
21728 | Deary me, Dick,said Mrs Varley, who now proceeded to spread the youth''s mid- day meal before him,"did ye drive the nail three times?" |
21728 | Dick Varley,cried several voices;"where''s Varley? |
21728 | Did Jim see-- Dick? |
21728 | Did ye say, my boy, that they were_ all_ killed? |
21728 | Did ye, though, all be yer lone? |
21728 | Do Peigans hunt with_ war- arrows_? |
21728 | Do n''t ye think, lads, it would be better to let the poor wretch off? |
21728 | Do they love the dark better than the sunshine? |
21728 | Does the Pawnee woman thank the Great Spirit that her child is saved? |
21728 | Fat for, you do dat? |
21728 | Go? 21728 Had we not best turn back and follow them at once?" |
21728 | Hallo, Dick, wot''s to do? |
21728 | Have the Pale- faces no wigwams on the great river that they should come to spy out the lands of the Pawnee? |
21728 | Have ye got the big powder- horn, Joe? |
21728 | Have ye, Dick? 21728 How comes it,"inquired Dick,"that these Indians do n''t care for our tobacco?" |
21728 | How d''ye know that? |
21728 | I never resort to that except as a last hope,he answered,"but I''ve a good deal of confidence in your prudence, what would you advise?" |
21728 | Is that the bluff, Joe? |
21728 | Is that your camp? |
21728 | Is''t yerself, Dick Varley? |
21728 | Let me see? |
21728 | May I go, mother? |
21728 | My boy, what do ye with the major''s dog? |
21728 | My boy,exclaimed Mrs Varley, as her son entered the cottage with a bound,"why so hurried to- day? |
21728 | No bones broke? |
21728 | No damage done, boys, I hope? |
21728 | No, did ye though? |
21728 | Now then, all ready? |
21728 | S''pose I wos make try? |
21728 | Shall ve go to york an''slay dem all at vonce, or von at a time? |
21728 | So soon? |
21728 | The pup may be useful to us; how would you have it proved? |
21728 | This is capital weather, Crusoe; ai n''t it pup? |
21728 | To whom, my boy? 21728 Was that the bar that gave you the wipe on the cheek?" |
21728 | We chawed him up that time, did n''t we, pup? |
21728 | We may light a fire to- night, d''ye think? |
21728 | What are the others? |
21728 | What are they doin''yonder? |
21728 | What ca n''t be? |
21728 | What can it be, Joe? |
21728 | What do_ you_ want, ye small bundle o''hair? |
21728 | What has happened, eh? |
21728 | What is''t, pup? |
21728 | What is''t, pup? |
21728 | What mean you, Joe? |
21728 | What now, Joe? |
21728 | What were they like, young man? |
21728 | What''s the matter? 21728 What''s to be done?" |
21728 | When do we start? |
21728 | Where do you come from, and what are you doing here? |
21728 | Where you git him? |
21728 | Who comes next? |
21728 | Who sold ye the bear- claw collar? |
21728 | Who will go into the lands of the Blackfeet? 21728 Why not?" |
21728 | Why so, lad? |
21728 | Will that do? |
21728 | Will the Dark Flower,said Joe, catching the name she had given herself,"help the Pale- face if he opens his heart to her? |
21728 | Won her, my son? |
21728 | Won it, my son? |
21728 | Wot''s comed over yer brains, man? 21728 _ Must_ he be kill?" |
21728 | ` What have we got here?'' 21728 ` What,''says he,` when we got yon capital marrow- bones?'' |
21728 | ` Will ye?'' 21728 Ai n''t it cur''ous? |
21728 | And now, as I presume you do n''t bivouac in the snow, will you kindly conduct us to your encampment, if it be not far hence?" |
21728 | And now, young man, will you join my party as guide, and afterwards remain as trapper? |
21728 | And what,"continued Dick,"may be the name o''the bourgeois who speaks to me?" |
21728 | And who else goes with us?" |
21728 | Are Joe and Henri far from camp to- day?" |
21728 | Are my words good?" |
21728 | Are not these your goods?" |
21728 | Are the Pale- faces henceforth to tell their children when they steal,` That is bad; that is like the Pawnee?'' |
21728 | Are we to go back to the great chief of the Pale- faces, and say that the Pawnees are thieves? |
21728 | Are you mad?" |
21728 | Are you ready?" |
21728 | But ver is your hoss?" |
21728 | But what''s that scraping at the door?" |
21728 | But, young man, do you mean to say that you live here in the mountain all alone after this fashion?" |
21728 | By the way, Joe, how many days''provisions did ye bring?" |
21728 | Can a man feel as if his joints were wrenched out of their sockets, and listen to advice-- be that advice good or bad? |
21728 | Can he feel as if he were sitting down on red- hot iron, when he''s not sitting down at all-- and listen to advice? |
21728 | Can he feel as though these joints were trying to re- set and re- dislocate themselves perpetually-- and listen to advice? |
21728 | Can ye rise?" |
21728 | Could he be dreaming? |
21728 | Crusoe, are you happy, I say? |
21728 | Crusoe, you''re not asleep, are you, pup?" |
21728 | D''ye mean to say that_ they_ live here?" |
21728 | D''ye think ye''ll go?" |
21728 | Do we not speak at this moment to_ you_? |
21728 | Do you think, reader, that Grumps looked at any one but Crusoe? |
21728 | Does your heart bound in you like a cannon ball that wants to find its way out and can''t-- eh?" |
21728 | Fat place do vampums come from?" |
21728 | He came to in a little, an''the first thing he said was,` Where''s my revolver?'' |
21728 | He says, why should the Pale- face and the Red- man fight? |
21728 | His only resource was flight; but where was he to fly to? |
21728 | How did ye bring him here?" |
21728 | I have said,--What message shall we take back to the great chief of the Pale- faces?" |
21728 | I suppose you will go also?" |
21728 | If not-- fat am he?" |
21728 | Is he not going to make peace with the enemies of the Pawnee? |
21728 | Is he not going to take goods to them, and make them gifts and promises? |
21728 | Is it not so?" |
21728 | Jist as we wos partin''I said, says I,` D''ye know what it wos we lived on for a week arter we wos well- nigh starved in the prairies?'' |
21728 | Joe hesitated again-- could he trust her? |
21728 | Look here; did you ever see one like it before?" |
21728 | Now, lads, what think ye we should do?" |
21728 | Now, tell me, pup, would n''t ye like to grip a bar?" |
21728 | Of course Crusoe goes, Joe Blunt?" |
21728 | Our own are the best in my''pinion, but how are we to git''em?" |
21728 | Presently Dick asked, in a low tone,"I say, Henri, are ye asleep?" |
21728 | Shall they live? |
21728 | Shall we suffer the false- hearts to escape? |
21728 | The great chief of the Pale- faces has sent me to say,` Why should we fight? |
21728 | They were stout, said you?" |
21728 | What are you chuckling at, Joe?" |
21728 | What if he do n''t quite onderstand ye?" |
21728 | What mattered it to Dick? |
21728 | What now, lad?" |
21728 | What, give up a hunter''s life and become a farmer? |
21728 | When it was finished he held it out at arm''s length, and said,"Crusoe, my pup, ai n''t ye proud of it? |
21728 | Where''s Henri?" |
21728 | Who''s next?" |
21728 | Why do n''t ye go on?" |
21728 | Will she risk the anger of her nation?" |
21728 | Will you go?" |
21728 | Wo n''t ye try it_ now_?" |
21728 | Would n''t it be nuts, pup?" |
21728 | Would ye believe it?" |
21728 | Yet after all, why should we call these wolves villanous? |
21728 | Yet, in which way should he go? |
21728 | an''fat is to be give to me for my broke shoulder?" |
21728 | and if so, then tell me, wherein lies the difference between a written_ letter_ and a given_ sign_? |
21728 | bad chien, vill you dare to look to me?" |
21728 | cried Dick, sympathetically,"does it hurt ye, eh, poor dog?" |
21728 | cried Henri, who did n''t see the animal in the least;"say you dat? |
21728 | de bar no go under yit?" |
21728 | de praise? |
21728 | did you hear that?" |
21728 | fat is dat?" |
21728 | fat is eet-- hay? |
21728 | fat you say? |
21728 | here, pup, where are you?" |
21728 | milleryons of mile away to here, and dat de is more bigger dan dis vorld?" |
21728 | ou is de?" |
21728 | pup?" |
21728 | what is''t?" |
21728 | what is''t?" |
21728 | what sort o''hut can ye make here?" |
21728 | what''s this?" |
21728 | what''s wrong? |
21728 | where got you the grand gun?" |
21728 | why pursue the subject? |
21728 | wo n''t we, Crusoe?" |
12405 | ''Tom,"said my father,"how often have I told you that I have n''t got a drop of liquor in the shanty? |
12405 | ''You a trader among the Injuns, an''not keep whisky?" |
12405 | Are you going to ride shanks''horses? |
12405 | Are you going to take the tow- path? |
12405 | Are you going to_ walk_? 12405 Bill,"he continued, turning to his right- hand man,"can you act as guide?" |
12405 | But what do you suppose made them put the provisions in the Alert? |
12405 | Can you discover any fast boats ahead of us, George? |
12405 | Could they? 12405 Could you do it?" |
12405 | Did n''t you notice how disrespectfully he spoke of his father? 12405 Did you catch them with a hook and line?" |
12405 | Did you make the sails yourself, Frank? |
12405 | Did you see any thing of the guns? |
12405 | Dished again, are we? |
12405 | Do it? 12405 Do n''t we gain on him any?" |
12405 | Do you think so? |
12405 | Do you understand managing a sail- boat? |
12405 | Do you want them to discover all our plans, so that they may be ready for us? |
12405 | Has he ever done you any harm? |
12405 | Has n''t he got an orchard or melon- patch that we could visit? |
12405 | Have n''t you heard any thing about it, either? |
12405 | Have they? 12405 Have you caught any thing?" |
12405 | Have you got three or four market- baskets, a clothes- basket, one or two pails, and a salt- bag? |
12405 | He did n''t do it, did he? |
12405 | He would n''t fly off, would he? |
12405 | How are we going to work to get him out? |
12405 | How are you going to hinder it? 12405 How are you going to work it, Frank?" |
12405 | How can we manage that? |
12405 | How do you know? 12405 How does she sail?" |
12405 | How far will it shoot? |
12405 | How will we go to work? |
12405 | I came very near getting the start of you, after all-- didn''t I? |
12405 | I say, Archie, where are you? |
12405 | I say, Frank,said Charles Sheldon,"do n''t you think we can catch you?" |
12405 | I wonder if they thought we would be foolish enough to send the Alert out of this creek, in the face of all those boats? |
12405 | I wonder who that is on the other side of the lake? |
12405 | If we could only go up there, some dark night, and steal his scow, and run her out into the river, and burn her, would n''t he be mad? |
12405 | It would be funny if you should slip up on it, would n''t it? |
12405 | It''s a long shot, is n''t it? |
12405 | Now, boys,said he,"we do n''t intend to disband, do we?" |
12405 | Now, what do you suppose that sloop cost me? |
12405 | Oh, only playin'', was yer? |
12405 | Oh, you begin to back down, do you, you cowards? |
12405 | So I see; but what use can you put them to? |
12405 | That''s the game, is it? |
12405 | That''s your private opinion, expressed here in this public manner, is it? |
12405 | Then how is it that the dogs are here? |
12405 | Then, where''s_ my_ basket? |
12405 | They look nice, do n''t they? |
12405 | They meant to be ready for us, did n''t they? |
12405 | They would, eh? 12405 Wal, if you say so, I wo n''t; but he oughter be larnt better manners-- hadn''t he, Pete?" |
12405 | Was that you shooting up there? |
12405 | Well, Frank, what do you think of him? |
12405 | Well,said Ben, after trying in vain to peer through the darkness,"how do matters stand? |
12405 | Whar are yer goin''? |
12405 | What are in these bags? |
12405 | What are these round things in this bag, I wonder? |
12405 | What are they? |
12405 | What are you trying to do? |
12405 | What boat is that? |
12405 | What business is that of yours? |
12405 | What do you find? |
12405 | What do you mean? |
12405 | What do you mean? |
12405 | What do you propose to do? |
12405 | What do you suppose the smugglers intend to do? |
12405 | What do you think now of the possibility of seeing a fox? |
12405 | What do you think now, Harry? |
12405 | What do you think of them? |
12405 | What if they do? |
12405 | What if they do? |
12405 | What in tarnation is the matter? |
12405 | What is it? |
12405 | What is it? |
12405 | What is to be done now? |
12405 | What luck? |
12405 | What makes you think so? |
12405 | What makes you think so? |
12405 | What makes you think so? |
12405 | What makes you try to throw cold water on all our expectations, in that way? |
12405 | What news? |
12405 | What shall we do? |
12405 | What society? |
12405 | What sort of a boy is he? |
12405 | What sort of fellows do you suppose we are? |
12405 | What''s that? |
12405 | What''s the matter, Uncle Joe? |
12405 | What''s the matter? |
12405 | What''s the reason? |
12405 | What''s the use? 12405 When are they coming?" |
12405 | Where are they? 12405 Where shall we meet?" |
12405 | Where will we have to go to find them in the morning? |
12405 | Where''s the owl? |
12405 | Where''s your companion? 12405 Which is your basket?" |
12405 | Which way is that? |
12405 | Who are they? |
12405 | Who cares for that? |
12405 | Who cares for that? |
12405 | Who is he? |
12405 | Who knows exactly where that strawberry- bed lies? 12405 Why are you?" |
12405 | Why did n''t you do it to- night? |
12405 | Why do n''t you club together, and every time you see one of the Hillers, go to work and thrash him like blazes? 12405 Why does that please you?" |
12405 | Why not? |
12405 | Why will it? |
12405 | Why, do n''t you see? |
12405 | Why, was n''t he jest tryin''to wallop your friend here? |
12405 | Why, you know that day after to- morrow is the Fourth of July, and--"And you have n''t got your fire- works yet? |
12405 | Why,said Julia, in surprise,"I guess that''s Aunt Harriet-- don''t you?" |
12405 | Will yer give a feller a ride? |
12405 | Would n''t it be a better plan for us to meet in the woods, at the back of Mrs. Nelson''s lot? 12405 You are not going home before spring, are you?" |
12405 | You do n''t intend to hurt Lee, do you? |
12405 | You do, eh? |
12405 | You think so, do you? |
12405 | Already he has laid by half that amount; but how is he to get the rest? |
12405 | At length, one of the boys inquired,"What name would you like?" |
12405 | Brave immediately ran to join them, and Harry exclaimed,"I''d like to know what those dogs are doing there?" |
12405 | But is there any hunting around here?" |
12405 | But which way do we go to get home?" |
12405 | Ca n''t twenty fellows whip a dozen?" |
12405 | Did he receive Harry''s letter?" |
12405 | Do you hear that?" |
12405 | Do you think you can comprehend me now?" |
12405 | Frank acknowledged himself to be the person, and James continued,"I suppose she''s the champion yacht, is n''t she?" |
12405 | Had we better try to cross the creek now, or shall we wait until daylight?" |
12405 | How would they go to work?" |
12405 | How would you like to spend an hour with me on the river to- morrow? |
12405 | I s''pose you kind o''thought you had rubbed me out, did n''t you?" |
12405 | I was going to say--""Are you going to keep still,"roared the bully,"or shall I make you?" |
12405 | I wonder how the Sunbeam[ meaning his skiff] would sail? |
12405 | I wonder if we could not have slipped by their police, and reached the island, before they knew it?" |
12405 | If we could represent the buck in the act of upsetting us, it would be our''masterpiece,''would n''t it? |
12405 | If yer_ had_ been, we would n''t a left a grease- spot of yer-- would we, Pete?" |
12405 | In a few moments they reached the fence that ran between the orchard and the meadow, and Archie inquired,"What shall we do now?" |
12405 | In the first place, I suppose, we are all willing to pass part of the day on the river?" |
12405 | Meanwhile Archie was pulling off his clothes, and, when his cousin appeared, he exclaimed,"How do things look down there? |
12405 | Not you the cod I twigged[A] navigating that scow up the creek?" |
12405 | Rather muddy, is n''t it?" |
12405 | Shall we punch him for yer?" |
12405 | Shall we try to cross it now? |
12405 | Should he go back to the house and get assistance? |
12405 | Suppose I shoot at him?" |
12405 | The boys pulled back to the wharf, and Charles continued,"I did n''t think that the Alert would hold all of the refreshments, did you?" |
12405 | The boys then climbed in themselves, and Frank said,"Well, we have captured our first deer, have n''t we?" |
12405 | The smugglers began to grow jubilant over their success, and George called out,"Where are your men- o''-war now? |
12405 | The smugglers remained together, and, as soon as the others were out of hearing, George inquired,"Do you think we can give them the slip?" |
12405 | To Frank''s inquiry,"How do you do, sir?" |
12405 | Uncle Joe suddenly inquired,"Boys, did you bring in your trap that you set for that wild- cat?" |
12405 | We shall be obliged to tack a good many times, going down but we can sail back like a book, and--""Oh, you teach your grandmother, will you?" |
12405 | We shoot consider''ble sharp-- don''t we?" |
12405 | What do you want?" |
12405 | What else should I catch them with? |
12405 | What shall we be called?" |
12405 | What was he to do? |
12405 | What''ll yer be after doing with the boat?" |
12405 | When do you expect her in port?" |
12405 | Where was it? |
12405 | Why do n''t you come down and see a fellow? |
12405 | Will you take it?" |
12405 | he continued, raising his voice so that William could hear;"wait for us at Uncle Mike''s-- will you?" |
12405 | he exclaimed, on noticing the change in the Speedwell''s appearance,"what have you been trying to do with your old scow?" |
12405 | inquired Archie,"You do n''t pretend to say that the''coons are not in the tree?" |
12405 | repeated Harry, with a laugh,"Whoever heard of such a thing?" |
12405 | said Lee;"that alters the case''tirely-- don''t it, Pete?" |
59853 | A what? |
59853 | After you put it in the smoke- house, you did n''t go back until this morning? |
59853 | Am I in? |
59853 | And it was done by these two? |
59853 | And it was n''t Bud? |
59853 | And what shall Fred do? |
59853 | And you are the boy who locked the lion in the smoke- house last night when you heard the poor fellow trying to use his aged teeth on some bones? |
59853 | Are we to leave the silver and money? |
59853 | Are you going to keep that? |
59853 | Are you the gentleman who was inquiring for me? |
59853 | But do you expect to find the lion to- night? |
59853 | Can it be Bud knows anything about last night? |
59853 | Can you do that? |
59853 | Dear me, have n''t you finished your revelations yet? |
59853 | Did he laugh? |
59853 | Did mother tell you I found it? |
59853 | Did n''t you whistle to me a while ago, and did n''t you keep it up till I got here, and then you stopped? 59853 Did you fall?" |
59853 | Did you get it changed? |
59853 | Did you see me then? |
59853 | Do they have snow storms down there in summer time? |
59853 | Do you hear him? |
59853 | Do you think we can manage it alone? |
59853 | Do you think you would know either of those men if you met them again? |
59853 | Do you want me to go with you? |
59853 | Does Bud like it with the circus? |
59853 | Exactly so; but what is to prevent our doing that now? 59853 Fred,"suddenly said his mother,"do not the Misses Perkinpine expect you to stay at their house to- night?" |
59853 | Gracious alive, what can you do if they should come? |
59853 | Halloo, Bud, where are you? |
59853 | Have you got a gun in the house? |
59853 | Have you told Archibald of this? |
59853 | He did, eh? |
59853 | He wanted you to get it changed, did n''t he? |
59853 | Hear him? 59853 Heard you? |
59853 | Hello, fellows, what is this pow- wow about? |
59853 | How about that twenty dollars I gave you to get changed? |
59853 | How are you getting along? |
59853 | How are you going,asked Joe Hunt, sarcastically,"when your father said he would n''t give you the money?" |
59853 | How could he help seeing me? |
59853 | How do you suppose they ever raised the money to buy all those fireworks? |
59853 | How far away is your home? |
59853 | How is that? |
59853 | How so? |
59853 | How would it do to lasso him? |
59853 | How? |
59853 | I did n''t, eh? |
59853 | I do n''t think so, from what they said; it would have been better if I had n''t whistled to Bud, would n''t it? |
59853 | I found it,replied Fred, who saw how he had forgotten himself in his fear;"is it yours?" |
59853 | I know, but how and where? 59853 I never thought, but it would be a good thing to get the money, too, would n''t it? |
59853 | I presume the offense is bailable? |
59853 | I saw him going in that direction, and I saw you come out the path; what more natural than that I should conclude you had met? 59853 I wonder whether Bud is there?" |
59853 | I''m here; where would I be? |
59853 | If he could be got into a place where he could be held secure until you brought up his own cage, that would be all you would ask? |
59853 | If one is guilty both are; if one is innocent so is the other? |
59853 | Is Bud going to be home long? |
59853 | Is it writ out? |
59853 | Is it yours? |
59853 | Is there anything the matter with it? |
59853 | Maybe not, but are you sure there ai n''t any of them detectives about? |
59853 | Mercy goodness,gasped Annie;"when was that?" |
59853 | Mrs. Heyland, why do you call him Bud? |
59853 | None of your business,was the characteristic answer;"is Fred Sheldon there?" |
59853 | Of course it does, but do n''t you s''pose we know all that? 59853 Of course they are; it ca n''t be anything else, but what were they doing in the woods with the wagon?" |
59853 | Oh, it''s you, Fred, is it? |
59853 | Really? 59853 Scared at what? |
59853 | So''m I,exclaimed the gratified Fred;"will you help me catch that tramp?" |
59853 | Sure nobody was watching you? |
59853 | Tell us, do you have sorrows or troubles? 59853 Then Bud is innocent, you think?" |
59853 | There, do n''t that sound prime? 59853 Was n''t that you that answered my whistling a little while ago?" |
59853 | Was n''t there some money taken, too? |
59853 | We''re after the lion,said Mr. Scrapton;"have you seen him?" |
59853 | Well, what is it? |
59853 | Well, what of it? |
59853 | Well, younkers, I s''pose you''re going to earn both of them rewards? |
59853 | What are you staring at me so for? |
59853 | What are your reasons? |
59853 | What did he punch me for, when I stubbed my toe and run agin him? |
59853 | What do you mean, Frederick? |
59853 | What do you mean? |
59853 | What do you mean? |
59853 | What do you want of me? |
59853 | What do you want to make fools of yourselves for? |
59853 | What do you want? |
59853 | What does Mr. Kincade want? |
59853 | What does that offer imply? |
59853 | What form is their celebration to take? |
59853 | What have I done,asked Fred, backing away from him,"that you should take every chance you can get, Bud, to hurt me?" |
59853 | What have you done? |
59853 | What in? |
59853 | What is the reward? |
59853 | What is the world coming to? |
59853 | What sort of a piece? |
59853 | What under the sun can that be? |
59853 | What under the sun is such an old thing good for? |
59853 | What was he after? |
59853 | What''s getting into folks? |
59853 | What''s that? |
59853 | What''s that? |
59853 | What''s the matter now, Freddy? |
59853 | What''s the matter with you fellows? |
59853 | What''s the matter, my little man? |
59853 | What''s the reason you ca n''t? |
59853 | What''s the use of telling him? 59853 What''s the use of that burning, anyway?" |
59853 | What''s to hinder? 59853 What?" |
59853 | When is it going to come? |
59853 | When will he be home? |
59853 | Where did you find it? |
59853 | Where did you find them? |
59853 | Where did you get the meat? |
59853 | Where is Archie? |
59853 | Where is it? |
59853 | Where? |
59853 | Who can it be so early as this? |
59853 | Who lives here, then? |
59853 | Who said anything about counterfeits? |
59853 | Who was it that done it for you? |
59853 | Who was that? |
59853 | Who''s afraid? |
59853 | Who''s that? |
59853 | Who, then, shut and fastened the door, after the lion walked in the smoke- house to eat the meat? |
59853 | Why could n''t we coax him into the school- house this afternoon after all the girls and boys are gone? |
59853 | Why did n''t I think of that? |
59853 | Why did n''t I think of that? |
59853 | Why did n''t you call us? |
59853 | Why did n''t you come over to Squire Jones''office, then, and fix it? |
59853 | Why did n''t you get out the way when I hollered to you? |
59853 | Why did n''t you holler sooner, my young friend? |
59853 | Why did n''t you shoot''em when you had the chance? |
59853 | Why do n''t you shoot him? |
59853 | Why do n''t you speak? |
59853 | Why not? |
59853 | Why not? |
59853 | Why so? |
59853 | Why so? |
59853 | Why, Fred, how can that be? |
59853 | Why, darling, what is the matter? |
59853 | Why, what can Fred know about it? |
59853 | Why, what would you have done if I had called you? |
59853 | Why, what''s the matter? |
59853 | Will it make you feel any better to get your head cracked? 59853 Will there be any risk in leaving the horse here?" |
59853 | Will you call it square for that? |
59853 | Will you j''ine? |
59853 | Would n''t I? 59853 Yes, but will he stay there?" |
59853 | Yes, of course I will? |
59853 | Yes, sir; how could you know it? |
59853 | Yes, there is, too; ai n''t we folks that live in Tottenville Tottenhots, smarty? |
59853 | You are, eh? 59853 You can not? |
59853 | You can reach down to it, ca n''t you? |
59853 | You have a family, have you? |
59853 | You have n''t owned it all that time, have you? |
59853 | You met Bud Heyland in the woods over yonder, did n''t you? |
59853 | You remember the man that was behind us listening when we sat on the rock last night? |
59853 | You said you were a shipwrecked sailor, I believe? |
59853 | You say you put the meat in there on purpose to catch the lion last night? |
59853 | You want to play the thief, do you? |
59853 | You will, eh? 59853 You''re sure Sutton will be there?" |
59853 | You''ve fastened it on Bud, eh? |
59853 | Your name is Frederick Sheldon, I believe? |
59853 | Afraid there is n''t enough supper for you?" |
59853 | Ai n''t I glad to see you? |
59853 | Am I the other tramp that led you on such a wild- goose chase? |
59853 | And to what do they challenge us-- a spelling match or a swimming race?" |
59853 | And wo n''t she be glad? |
59853 | Are the''low- ly lil- is of the val- ly''once more on the war path? |
59853 | Are you the man?" |
59853 | Besides, the risk was tremendous, and why should he endanger his life? |
59853 | Bud Heyland''s face flushed still redder, and he coughed, swallowed and stuttered----"Who shut the door? |
59853 | Bud snarled:"I generally say just what I mean, and what are you going to do about it, old Hay Seed?" |
59853 | Bud turned toward the constable, who stood at his elbow, with flashing eyes, and demanded:"What''s the matter with you?" |
59853 | But I say, Mr. Kincade, how shall we go to work to capture a lion? |
59853 | But say, good people, how in the world am I to know whether I am chasing Hanschen or a hare?" |
59853 | But was the little structure strong enough to hold him? |
59853 | But when he was invited to sit down he did so, and asked, in the most natural manner:"Where is Bud?" |
59853 | But where are your pyrotechnics to come from?" |
59853 | Carter?" |
59853 | Did n''t he kill you?" |
59853 | Did they ask you any questions when you got it changed?" |
59853 | Did you ever see such a queer- looking hare as that little chap with my brothers?" |
59853 | Do n''t I know--''cause, did n''t I try it?" |
59853 | Do n''t you see I''m ready to run into the water, and----""How about going through the bushes and briars?" |
59853 | Do you expect to crawl under the tent?" |
59853 | Do you see?" |
59853 | Do you understand?" |
59853 | Finally he asked, in his gruff, dictatorial way:"Who was he?" |
59853 | Fred made no answer to this, when the tramp added, in the same husky undertone, as he stepped forward in a threatening way:"Do you hear what I said?" |
59853 | Gibby?" |
59853 | Has Archie Jackson been here to- day?" |
59853 | Have n''t we done it in more than one other place than Tottenville?" |
59853 | Have you any objection to his going with me?" |
59853 | He gave you a twenty- dollar bill to get changed, did n''t he?" |
59853 | He nodded to them and said,"How do you do?" |
59853 | He shook hands with Kincade and Bud, the latter asking:"Is everything all right?" |
59853 | His name was-- let me see, circus- circum-- no----""Cyrus Sutton?" |
59853 | How are you? |
59853 | How could the guilt of Bud Heyland be brought home to him, and who was his partner? |
59853 | How old do you suppose we are?" |
59853 | How was the silver plate to be recovered, for the task would be less than half performed should the owners fail to secure that? |
59853 | If you are we''ve got lots of castor oil and rhubarb and jalap and boneset; shall I mix you up some?" |
59853 | Is it an earthquake?" |
59853 | It is easy to picture the scowling glare which Bud Heyland turned upon Sutton as he answered:"You''re a purty one to talk about signals, ai n''t you? |
59853 | Neither of the others noticed this course remark, and the stranger, scrutinizing the boy with great interest, said:"What is your name, please?" |
59853 | Roy Hastings''sister?" |
59853 | Suppose I had taken out this knife and told him all about it, what would he have said?" |
59853 | That official, addressing himself to the constable, asked:"You are certain this offense was committed on last Monday evening?" |
59853 | The angry Heyland called out:"What''s the matter with you? |
59853 | The boy, who was sixteen years old, turned about and looked at them for a minute, and then asked:"Is that you, younkers? |
59853 | The boys started toward him, and had nearly reached him when Jimmy Emery said in an excited undertone:"Why, do n''t you see who he is? |
59853 | The three little hares were delighted and said,"He''s a hare now, is n''t he, mammy?" |
59853 | The tramp- like individual peered through the gloom in the direction indicated, and then inquired:"How fur is it?" |
59853 | Was she, Helen Hastings-- her father''s pride, her brothers''pet-- to meet a violent death here in this lonely spot? |
59853 | We remained silent for some moments, when grandfather said quietly,"Celia, had n''t you better tell the boys the story of the walnut rod?" |
59853 | What are you talking about?" |
59853 | What do you think, sister?" |
59853 | What do you want?" |
59853 | What does that mean?" |
59853 | What for?" |
59853 | What made you stay away so long?" |
59853 | What was it they had heard? |
59853 | What''er you doin''here?" |
59853 | What''s that?" |
59853 | What''s the matter of_ you_, Joe Hunt?" |
59853 | When he broke through his own cage with such ease, would he find any difficulty in making his way out of this place? |
59853 | When made aware of its character he turned smilingly toward the chief prisoner and said:"Well, colonel, what have you to say to this?" |
59853 | When you heard me, why did you stop?" |
59853 | Where did it seem to come from?" |
59853 | While in the act of opening it, Bud Heyland caught sight of it, and with an exclamation of surprise, he demanded:"Where did you get that?" |
59853 | Why do n''t you come on, you fool?" |
59853 | Why was it that, with such opportunities for destroying human life, he had failed to rend any one to fragments? |
59853 | Why-- that is-- yes-- why what''s the use of asking such infarnal questions?" |
59853 | Will give a hundred dollars, eh? |
59853 | Will you walk to the road, or shall we be forced to carry you?" |
59853 | Would n''t you ladies like to attend the show?" |
59853 | You observed how pale- looking he is?" |
59853 | asked Miss Annie, peering over her spectacles in alarm;"are you sick? |
59853 | called out Bud;"if you can whistle you can use your voice, ca n''t you?" |
59853 | called out Fred, as he came up,"what are you looking for?" |
59853 | called out Fred, with a grin, as he and his two friends approached;"how are you?" |
59853 | demanded Bud Heyland, checking his horse and glaring about in the gloom;"is that you, Sutton?" |
59853 | do n''t you?" |
59853 | gasped Aunt Annie, sinking into a chair and raising her hands,"what is the world coming to?" |
59853 | what''s that?" |
21734 | Ah thin, avic, plaze do attind to me at wance; for sure I''ve run four miles to git stuff for a dyin''family-- won''t ye now? |
21734 | Ai n''t it vexin''? |
21734 | Ai n''t you afraid some of the bad- looking scoundrels in these parts may take a fancy to your pick and shovel? |
21734 | Ai n''t you goin''with us? |
21734 | All what, sir? |
21734 | Among the mountains, is it? 21734 An'', may I ax, commodore,"said Larry O''Neil, touching his hat,"wot_ I''m_ to do?" |
21734 | An''I say, stranger,continued the Yankee, while Ned put the finishing touches to his work,"will ye do the inside o''my hut for the same money?" |
21734 | An''who are_ you_ that finds fault wi''the diggers? |
21734 | And are these murders passed over without any attempt to bring the murderers to justice? |
21734 | And did the sharper hear of it? |
21734 | And did you say you were all ready for a start to- morrow, captain? |
21734 | And how would you manage with huge manufactories? |
21734 | And now,said Ned,"may I ask permission to pass the night with you?" |
21734 | And pray, sir,he continued,"may I ask what are office- hours?" |
21734 | And suppose I did n''t care a straw for being called a coward, and would n''t attempt to clear my character? |
21734 | And suppose,answered Ned, with a smile--"suppose that I refused to fight, what then?" |
21734 | And which of the three callings do you propose adopting? |
21734 | And why not, nephew? 21734 And, pray thee, what may that be, most sapient philosopher?" |
21734 | Are grizzly- bears eaten here? |
21734 | Are the victuals gone too? |
21734 | Are we far- distant from the other miners in this creek? |
21734 | Are ye ready to go, Mister McLeod? |
21734 | Are ye sure o''the spot? |
21734 | Are ye sure? |
21734 | Are you badly hurt, my poor fellow? |
21734 | Are you in earnest? |
21734 | Are, then, all the Indian tribes at enmity with the white men? |
21734 | Arrah, now,remarked another Patlander,"do n''t ye wish ye wos up to the knees and elbows in the goolden sands already? |
21734 | At what hour? |
21734 | Av it would n''t displase yer lordship, may I take the presumption to ax how the seal come to be broken? |
21734 | Ay,_ how_ long? |
21734 | Bear- catching? |
21734 | Big''un? |
21734 | Bin long in? |
21734 | Bin there before? |
21734 | But how am I to escape from Mr Jolly? |
21734 | But how do you manage it? |
21734 | But what_ is_ the affair? |
21734 | But where have they gone to? |
21734 | But why not give it now? |
21734 | But,said Ned,"I shall have to get a steward-- is that what you call him? |
21734 | By the way,remarked Ned, as they walked along,"what of Captain Bunting''s old ship?" |
21734 | Can I see Mr Moxton? |
21734 | Can nothing be done, then? |
21734 | Can we? |
21734 | Can you speak English? |
21734 | Capital,cried Ned, laughing heartily;"and you did n''t try for a letter after all?" |
21734 | D''ye mane to tell me,he said, slowly and with emphasis,"that I''m maybe sittin''at this minute on the top o''rale goold?" |
21734 | D''you think so? 21734 DB?" |
21734 | Do I know meself? |
21734 | Do n''t ye see that ye''ve a''most made him faint? 21734 Do n''t you think, messmates,"said Captain Bunting, lighting his pipe,"that if it gets wind the whole colony will be laughin''at us?" |
21734 | Do these storms usually last long? |
21734 | Do you mean that you seven men catch fall- grown grizzly- bears alive and take them down to the settlements? |
21734 | Do you see yonder bird clinging to the stem of that tree, and pitching into it as if it were its most deadly foe? |
21734 | Do you think, then, that you would make a good digger? |
21734 | Do you? |
21734 | Does he expect more to- morrow, think ye? |
21734 | Does he like to have the Bible read to him? |
21734 | Does not this wild spot remind you of the nursery tales we used to read? |
21734 | Drop, you mean,suggested Tom, laughing at the man''s expression;"of course I have, and why not? |
21734 | Excuse me, sir,he said, hesitatingly,"may I ask what room I shall occupy, if-- if-- I come to work here?" |
21734 | Goin''to the diggin''s, I s''pose? |
21734 | Hallo, Ned, what''s keeping you? |
21734 | Halloo, Ned, what''s that I hear about prices? 21734 Have ye spoken to the other men, Elliot?" |
21734 | Have you got your colours with you? |
21734 | How did it happen? |
21734 | How in the world did you get him in there? |
21734 | How moche? |
21734 | How much did you propose? |
21734 | How often am I to tell you that I do n''t and_ wo n''t_ consider the making of money the chief good of this world? 21734 How so, boy?" |
21734 | How so? |
21734 | How was dat? |
21734 | How was that? |
21734 | How-- how much have I swallowed? |
21734 | How? |
21734 | I am not surprised to hear it,said Captain Bunting;"but pray what''s i''the wind? |
21734 | I have not kept you waiting, have I? |
21734 | I s''pose ye''ll not object to let me rest by yer fire, strangers? |
21734 | I say, Bill,he added, pointing to a little tin bowl which stood on an inverted cask outside the door of the ranche,"wot can that be for?" |
21734 | I say, stranger,inquired the Yankee,"d''ye git many bits like that in this location?" |
21734 | I suppose you intend to send this to some fair one in old Ireland? |
21734 | I''ll do that for you, all in good time; meanwhile, will you put on your hat, and run down to Moxton''s office-- you remember it? |
21734 | Indeed,replied Tom, laughing;"how, then, would you have men to live?" |
21734 | Is all right? |
21734 | Is he your husband? |
21734 | Is it a very ghostly one? |
21734 | Is it? |
21734 | Is not` nor''east and by east''our direct course for the harbour of San Francisco? |
21734 | Is that all? |
21734 | Is the trap far off? |
21734 | Is your claim better than the others in the neighbourhood? |
21734 | It''s a wild place, if all reports are true? |
21734 | It''s awkward,said the captain, with a troubled expression, as he slowly raised a square lump of pork to his mouth;"what would you advise me to do?" |
21734 | It''s only me, Ned; can I come in? 21734 Maybe ye can do Irish?" |
21734 | Mister McLeod,said he, when Ned concluded,"will ye shew me the body o''this man? |
21734 | Most true, my sagacious friend,said Tom;"but, pray, how do you prove the fact that things_ are_ wrong?" |
21734 | Mr Collins? |
21734 | My dear uncle,said he,"how can_ I_ manage such a place, without means or knowledge?" |
21734 | Near the Horn, I should think, by this time; but why so anxious? |
21734 | No, you do n''t, do you? 21734 Nor none o''your party, I expect?" |
21734 | Nother do I,said another,"It''s all a sham; come, now, ai n''t it, Bill?" |
21734 | Now, ai n''t that aggravatin''? |
21734 | Now, dear,said Larry,"we have n''t time to waste, will ye go with me to San Francisco?" |
21734 | Now, then, where''ll I steer to? |
21734 | Now, thin, who''s nixt? |
21734 | Now, who is to decide the question if I do n''t give in, Tom? 21734 Of course, you could n''t be expected to have done much in so short a time; but_ how_ much?" |
21734 | One second more and I shall commence,replied Ned;"I beg pardon, may I ask your name?" |
21734 | Or French? |
21734 | Perhaps you will inform me where_ you_ have come from, and what is your errand in these lonesome places at this hour of the night? |
21734 | Perhaps you''ll try the northern diggin''s? |
21734 | Porter there? |
21734 | Pray, sir,began Ned, modestly,"may I take the liberty of asking you what is the meaning of all this?" |
21734 | Sartinly I do,replied the bear- catcher;"an''why not, stranger?" |
21734 | Shall I read to ye, darlin''? |
21734 | Shootin'', is it? 21734 So soon?" |
21734 | Sure do n''t I know me own feelin''s best? |
21734 | Surely the farm connected with such a house must be a large one? |
21734 | Then why did n''t you? |
21734 | Then, do you mean to say that Thompson is gone? |
21734 | There you go again, Tom; you ask me the abstract question,` What do you mean by enjoying life?'' 21734 There''s more than wan,"cried another man, seizing Pat again by the arm;"wo n''t ye come, man?" |
21734 | They''re diggin''goold out o''the cabin floors, are they? |
21734 | Troth, ye''ve got a dash o''the Yankee brogue,said Larry, with a puzzled look;"did ye not come from the owld country?" |
21734 | W''en a thing comes all right, an''tight, an''ship- shape, why, wot then? 21734 Wall, now, stranger, if you choose to be resarved, and we choose to be free- an''-easy, where''s the differ? |
21734 | Wall? |
21734 | Was he well when he left? |
21734 | Well, I do n''t know about that; I suppose you''re right,replied Lizette;"but is n''t it nice? |
21734 | Well, but could n''t you_ converse_ without arguing? |
21734 | Well, now, let me ask you, Ned, how much gold have you brought back from the diggings? |
21734 | Well, what have you got, comrades? |
21734 | What do you do with them when caught? |
21734 | What have we here? |
21734 | What have you to say to me? |
21734 | What is it ye give him? |
21734 | What is it? |
21734 | What like was he? |
21734 | What say ye to that, mister? |
21734 | What shall we do now? |
21734 | What shall we do now? |
21734 | What way is that? |
21734 | What''s his name? |
21734 | What''s that? |
21734 | What''s the price? |
21734 | What, comrades,cried Black Jim, with an oath, and looking fiercely round,"will ye see a messmate treated like this? |
21734 | What, then, do you mean to do? |
21734 | What,said he,"sell the_ Roving Bess_, which stands_ A1_ at Lloyd''s, to be broken up to build gold- diggers houses? |
21734 | What_ can_ he mean? |
21734 | What_ does_ it all mean? |
21734 | What_ is_ to be done? |
21734 | When shall we start? |
21734 | Where away? |
21734 | Where did_ you_ come from, old boy? |
21734 | Where has Larry O''Neil gone? |
21734 | Where have you come from, and how comes it that your clothes are torn, and your faces covered with blood? |
21734 | Where then? |
21734 | Where''s the gold? |
21734 | Who be this Missey Nelina? |
21734 | Who can DB have been? |
21734 | Who can make a torch? |
21734 | Who comes here? |
21734 | Who do you think was the murderer? |
21734 | Who goes there? |
21734 | Who said we were` afraid,''young man? |
21734 | Who''s there? |
21734 | Who? |
21734 | Whose is the best horse? |
21734 | Why did n''t ye ax? |
21734 | Why not, stranger? |
21734 | Why not? |
21734 | Why so, stranger? |
21734 | Why, boy,said Captain Bunting, laying down his knife, and looking at Ned in amazement,"what''s put that in your head, eh?" |
21734 | Why, how did you guess that? |
21734 | Why, then, I''d be compelled to snuff you out slick off? |
21734 | Why, what have you been about? |
21734 | Why, what_ do_ you mean,said he,"who is this extraordinary proprietor?" |
21734 | Why, where are ye goin''? |
21734 | Will that suffice to stock and carry on so large a farm,inquired Ned? |
21734 | Wot wos his name? |
21734 | Yer a cliver fellow,said Larry, as he came up, panting;"sure ye did it be chance?" |
21734 | You don''say dat? |
21734 | You would n''t have me spit in my hat, would you? |
21734 | You''d make a pretty good thing of it if you did,retorted Mr Thompson;"would they not, Lizette? |
21734 | You''ll be goin''up to the bar at the American Forks now, I calc''late? |
21734 | You''re not good at a bargain, I fear,remarked Sinton;"but what of the little girl?" |
21734 | You''ve been in California, since I last saw you, I understand? |
21734 | You''ve come from San Francisco, stranger? |
21734 | ` Four''s bid,''says I, mountin''on a keg o''baccy, and howldin up the knife;` who says more? 21734 ` Now,''says I,` wot for are ye scraggin''this old man?'' |
21734 | ` Och,''says he,` who''ll sell me a place?'' 21734 ` Why not?'' |
21734 | ` Why, what do you mean, my lad?'' 21734 ` Wot''s to do?'' |
21734 | ''Cause why? |
21734 | An''whot am I to do with it? |
21734 | And if not, is it digestible? |
21734 | Any new diggin''s discovered?" |
21734 | As he did not seem inclined to be communicative, however, Ned said again,"What is the meaning of it all? |
21734 | Besides, are we agoin''to let sich a trifle stand in the way o''us an''our fortins?" |
21734 | Besides, has n''t she got an Irish heart? |
21734 | But are you_ sure_ you know her?" |
21734 | But first tell me, how is my young friend, Ned?" |
21734 | But how has it come about? |
21734 | But what''s wrong; you look pale, and, eh? |
21734 | Captain Bunting, how are ye? |
21734 | Come on, and fire together; but aim_ low_, d''ye hear?" |
21734 | Did n''t we lay him hereabouts?" |
21734 | Do n''t I know the mizzen- mast as well as I know me right leg?" |
21734 | Do you feel better to- night?" |
21734 | Do you think we shall manage to reach the diggings to- morrow, Maxton?" |
21734 | Happy, thrice happy, the few who in that hour could truly say to Jesus,"Whom have I in heaven but Thee? |
21734 | Have ye got raisins an''sago?" |
21734 | Have you any more knives like that one?" |
21734 | Have you been successful since I left?" |
21734 | Have you been used to sit at the desk?" |
21734 | Have you ever been in an office before?" |
21734 | Have you no one to look after you?" |
21734 | Have you studied law?" |
21734 | Here Ned whispered a few words to the captain, who nodded his head, and, turning to the Yankee, said--"How much will you give?" |
21734 | Here comes the mate again-- well, Mr Williams?" |
21734 | Horoo, Mister Sinton, darlint, is it yerself? |
21734 | How are ye gittin''on in the goold way, honey?" |
21734 | How are ye, kinsman? |
21734 | How comed ye to larn me name? |
21734 | How did ye break it?" |
21734 | How far is it to the next ranche, landlord?" |
21734 | How''s her head, Larry?" |
21734 | I accept your answer to the general question; but how many people, think you, can afford to put your theory in practice?" |
21734 | I dun know yet very well how I got ashore, but I did somehow--""And did the cart go for it?" |
21734 | I gave up everything for it; I spent all my time in search of it-- and I got it-- and what good can it do me_ now_? |
21734 | I guess you''ve bin raised to that sort o''thing?" |
21734 | I hope you''re not offering to speculate in half- finished holes, or anything of that sort, eh?" |
21734 | I presume that you and your friends have just arrived at the mines?" |
21734 | I say, stranger, ai n''t you a Britisher?" |
21734 | I suppose your friend has told you how the land lies?" |
21734 | I''m not a stranger; do n''t I know all your history from first to last?" |
21734 | If ye ca n''t make things better, wot then? |
21734 | If ye ca n''t, why wot then? |
21734 | If_ he_ lose the boat, do n''t_ we_ lose the tin? |
21734 | In a few minutes he resumed,--"Well, but what do you mean by enjoying life?" |
21734 | Is n''t that a lan''scape?" |
21734 | Is the shooting good?" |
21734 | It began thus:--"My Dearest Boy,--What has become of you? |
21734 | Look alive, will you? |
21734 | Look here, Larry, can you guess what it was?" |
21734 | Look here, Tom, can you decipher this? |
21734 | Maybe there is; who knows?'' |
21734 | McLeod, where are you?" |
21734 | Mr Scotchman, I misremimber yer name, wot''s that?" |
21734 | Neither is my friend Sinton, eh?" |
21734 | Now, Mr Jefferson, in what position do you intend to sit?" |
21734 | Now, who will go with me?" |
21734 | Now, why did he do it? |
21734 | On the knocker being applied, the green door was opened by a disagreeable- looking old woman, who answered to the question,"Is Mr Moxton in?" |
21734 | See here, I have had my will drawn up long ago, with the place for the name left blank I had intended-- but no matter-- what is your name?" |
21734 | Shall I tell it you?" |
21734 | Shall we remain? |
21734 | Shure I do n''t mind the blow; it''s done me no harm-- won''t ye, now?" |
21734 | Smitten with the yellow fever, Neddy? |
21734 | So says I,` Wot''ll ye give?'' |
21734 | Stay, what was the name of the man who used to visit you?" |
21734 | Suppose we meet at the Parker House, and talk over our future plans while we discuss a chop?" |
21734 | Surely some peculiarity in the atmosphere gives that tree false proportions?" |
21734 | Tell me now, how long did it take afore it growed that long?" |
21734 | The Yankee uttered an exclamation of surprise, and asked,"Why not, stranger?" |
21734 | The result was, as formerly, a disagreeable- looking old woman, who replied to the question,"Is Mr Moxton in?" |
21734 | The rider drew up suddenly, and, leaping off his horse, cried,"Can I have a draught of water, my good woman?" |
21734 | The sick man saw him instantly, and, raising himself slightly, exclaimed,"Who goes there? |
21734 | The square lump of pork disappeared, as the captain thrust it into his cheek in order to say,"What?" |
21734 | These articles having been delivered and paid for, Larry continued--"Ye''ll have brandy, av coorse?" |
21734 | Tom looked up with a flushed countenance and a glittering eye, as he exclaimed--"Who? |
21734 | Tom replied by reining up his steed, pointing to an object in front, and inquiring,"What think you of_ that_?" |
21734 | Tom, are you wounded?" |
21734 | Up goes my rifle like wink, and the red- skin would ha''gone onder in another second, but my piece snapped-- cause why? |
21734 | Very odd, is n''t it?" |
21734 | What can it be that old Thompson''s so anxious about? |
21734 | What can it mean?" |
21734 | What did ye say was your charge for it?" |
21734 | What do you mean by it? |
21734 | What do you mean?" |
21734 | What do you mean?" |
21734 | What have you heard or seen?" |
21734 | What say you to the fact, that I am as much a beggar as yourself?" |
21734 | What say you?" |
21734 | What shall I have to pay him? |
21734 | What think you? |
21734 | What you want?" |
21734 | What''s the matter with ye? |
21734 | What_ does_ it all mean?" |
21734 | What_ has_ done it, uncle? |
21734 | What_ is_ to be done?" |
21734 | Where d''ye stop?" |
21734 | Where have you been, and where are you going next?" |
21734 | Wherever did ye come from? |
21734 | Why are_ you_ here, and what has brought me here?" |
21734 | Will that suit you?" |
21734 | Will ye try a drop?" |
21734 | Wo n''t you step in and take a cocktail or a gin- sling? |
21734 | Work, work you say, an''pay we?" |
21734 | Wos ye goin''there?" |
21734 | Wot''s the differ to us?" |
21734 | You have n''t made your fortune, I fancy?" |
21734 | You tell me you have 500 pounds?" |
21734 | ` Wot''s that for?'' |
21734 | ai n''t he a bit o''thunder?" |
21734 | an''do n''t I know the way to touch it? |
21734 | and_ who''s_ this-- a wet little girl?" |
21734 | are ye not shot, capting?" |
21734 | but it''s chape postage,"said Larry, lifting the curtain, and stepping out;"could n''t ye say thirty, now?" |
21734 | can you explain what has done it?" |
21734 | captain, where are you?" |
21734 | coughed Ned gravely,"and if we should set up in the_ other_ line, will you kindly come and board with us?" |
21734 | countryman, where''s the sick Irishman and his sister gone, that lived close to ye here?" |
21734 | cried Larry,"free, gratis, for nothin''?" |
21734 | cried Larry;"an''is there no law for sich doin''s?" |
21734 | cried McLeod, who, with Larry, had seized and cocked his rifle,"is that you, Webster?" |
21734 | cried Ned Sinton, laughing in gleeful surprise;"it''s my old boat, is n''t it? |
21734 | do you call this home?" |
21734 | exclaimed Larry,"why did n''t ye tell us the price before we tuck them?" |
21734 | exclaimed Moxton,"you''re young Sinton, I suppose?" |
21734 | exclaimed Ned Sinton, rushing up to his relative,"what_ can_ be the meaning of all this? |
21734 | faix, I''m of opinion I can prove the murder; but, first of all, how is the black villain to be diskivered?" |
21734 | gasped Tom, while the questions flashed across his mind-- Is gold- dust poison? |
21734 | got cleaned out with the trip up, an''trust to diggin''for the future? |
21734 | have ye room for a large party in there?" |
21734 | he shouted, on entering,"are you there?" |
21734 | how much d''ye say?" |
21734 | leave the gold- fields just as the sun is beginning to shine on you?" |
21734 | morther, wot nixt?" |
21734 | now, ye wo n''t tell?" |
21734 | or Indians?" |
21734 | said I,` what do you mean? |
21734 | said Ned, as they entered the somewhat gloomy defile,"which used to begin,` Once upon a time--''""Hist, Ned, is that a grizzly?" |
21734 | said Ned;"but how, in such a matter, can_ we_ help you with advice?" |
21734 | said Sam Scott, in a slightly sarcastic tone,"an''suppose I do n''t stop firin''over your shoulder, what then?" |
21734 | surely you do n''t mind a wetting?" |
21734 | thin, spake, wo n''t ye, darlin''? |
21734 | very good; which is he?" |
21734 | what have we here?" |
21734 | what''s that?" |
21734 | where are you?" |
21734 | why what''s this? |
21734 | wot do you dress your pig- tail with?" |
21734 | wot do_ you_ want?" |
21734 | you do n''t mean to say you''re-- laughing?" |
21734 | you villain, have I got you?" |
21734 | yourself again?" |
62866 | Act how? |
62866 | Ai n''t me and you going to live like the richest of them this winter? |
62866 | Ai n''t you going back with me? |
62866 | Ai n''t you mighty glad that you was n''t here when them robbers come up and stole your grub and things? |
62866 | And did n''t I just tell you that I was n''t going there no more? |
62866 | And how long will that be? |
62866 | And what do you think those trespassers did while they were there? |
62866 | And what shall I do with them twenty- five hundred after I get''em, Joey? |
62866 | And what will poor Bob be doing while we are hunting for him? |
62866 | And what would they have done with the things that are in that valise, if they had found them? 62866 And what''ll I be doing?" |
62866 | And what''ll you be doing? |
62866 | And will you promise, sure as you live and breathe, that you wo n''t lisp a word of it to nobody? 62866 And wo n''t you larrup me for losing of it?" |
62866 | And you did n''t hear anything either, I suppose? |
62866 | And you let''em go without saying a word to me? |
62866 | Animals do n''t generally have''hants,''do they? |
62866 | Are you going to be Mr. Hallet''s game- warden? |
62866 | Bob was right when he declared that this thing was destined to end in something besides fun, was n''t he? |
62866 | But did n''t they know that we would be back sooner or later to look into the matter? |
62866 | But do you imagine that he gave it back, even when he knew that he could not fulfil his promise? 62866 But do you suppose they thought they could get that valise back by threatening you?" |
62866 | But if he ca n''t read it, what use will it be to him? |
62866 | But suppose you had found them at home, and ready to receive you-- what then? |
62866 | But what could have been their object in stealing these sheets and pillow- cases? 62866 But where is he now?" |
62866 | But why do n''t he tell that Joe of our''n what he wants of him? |
62866 | But wo n''t they be hopping mad when they hear of it? |
62866 | But you heard the robbers coming down the path, did n''t you? 62866 By the way, you did n''t know that they are Mr. Hallet''s game- wardens, did you? |
62866 | By- the- way, did you ever see that before? |
62866 | By- the- way,chimed in Bob,"did this robber of yours have a gun of any description in his hands when he was captured?" |
62866 | Ca n''t I make him go pardners with me? |
62866 | Ca n''t you see how badly he wants it, and how confident he is that he is going to get it? 62866 Ca n''t you see that the door is wide open?" |
62866 | Ca n''t you speak, and tell me what''s the matter of you? |
62866 | Ca n''t you wait till I come to the cave? |
62866 | Camping? |
62866 | Coming up here again to- night? |
62866 | Dannie, what''s the use of talking that way? |
62866 | Did Dan''s fears make him say that, or was it a part of the trick? |
62866 | Did I understand you to say that you have not seen Bob since we ate dinner together? |
62866 | Did Joe say anything so''t you could hear it? |
62866 | Did any living person ever hear of such luck? |
62866 | Did he show himself to you, too? |
62866 | Did it ever occur to you that they might have followed you at a distance when you came down from the mountain? |
62866 | Did n''t I say that there had been a heap of plundering and stealing a going on in this country in bygone days? |
62866 | Did n''t I tell you when I first come in that I ai n''t got a cent to bless myself with? |
62866 | Did n''t you read in the letter about the grip- sack with a false bottom to it? |
62866 | Did n''t you tell me that you thought the head of the family ought to have the handling of all the money that came into the house? |
62866 | Did the writer say anything about cutting a hole through the ice, so that he could jump into the lake to get away from the''hant''? |
62866 | Did they go off together? 62866 Did they say anything to you?" |
62866 | Did we have any hand in making the capture? |
62866 | Did what? |
62866 | Did you ever dream that me and you would have such amazing good luck as has come to us this day? 62866 Did you find the rope that led down to the cave, when you went up there this morning?" |
62866 | Did you forget to close and lock your door when you left home this morning? |
62866 | Did-- did they hit him? |
62866 | Do n''t it you? |
62866 | Do n''t you hear the creaking of his wagon? 62866 Do n''t you suppose that we know a ruffed grouse from an English partridge or quail?" |
62866 | Do n''t you think it was kind of Mr. Warren to pay six dollars a pair for those birds, just to give you the fun of shooting them? |
62866 | Do n''t you think they used them to dress up their ghost? |
62866 | Do you know how much he is going to give him? |
62866 | Do you mean to let him boss you around in that way? |
62866 | Do you mean to say that you''re going back? |
62866 | Do you reckon the sheriff will hand over the twenty- five hundred when I give up the prisoner? |
62866 | Do you see my shotgun anywhere, either of you? |
62866 | Do you see this grip- sack? 62866 Do you think Joe suspects anything?" |
62866 | Do you think Silas will ever have the reward paid him in a lump? |
62866 | Do you think that that little Joe of our''n could''rest us if we did n''t want him to? |
62866 | Do you think that the men who fired those guns are hiding in the gulf? |
62866 | Do you think the robbers have got hold of him? |
62866 | Do you want them-- that rich feller to have all the fine shooting to himself? |
62866 | Down where in what gorge? |
62866 | Father has n''t worked half as hard as we have, and yet he is just as well-- What in the name of wonder is that? |
62866 | Fifteen dollars a month and grub for eight months-- that would be a hundred and twenty dollars, would n''t it, Dannie? 62866 Go on; what next? |
62866 | Has Mr. Warren got two keys to that lock? |
62866 | Has it got a false bottom in it? |
62866 | Have much of a supply? |
62866 | Have you any idea what induced him to take that step? |
62866 | Have you any idea where the things in this grip- sack came from? |
62866 | Have you any idea who the man is? |
62866 | Have you heard of a heavy robbery being committed in these parts lately? 62866 He ai n''t a going to go halvers with me and pap, is he? |
62866 | He did n''t say that we could n''t go back again as soon as the robbers have been caught, did he? |
62866 | How did he ever make out to carry that heft of greenbacks clear across the ocean and up into these mountings? 62866 How do you reckon he feels over the trick we played on him this morning?" |
62866 | How far is it to the beach? |
62866 | How is this, Brierly? |
62866 | How many birds did you get? |
62866 | How, I''d like to know? |
62866 | I belong here, do n''t I? 62866 I know I never did; but did n''t I tell you almost the very first word I said, that I''m going to try it this winter?" |
62866 | I know it is, for did n''t he go into them evergreens without making the least stir among the branches? |
62866 | I know it? |
62866 | I reckon you''ll have to catch him before you can prove anything agin him, wo n''t you? |
62866 | I reckon you''re glad''cause I ai n''t got a cent to bless myself with, ai n''t you? |
62866 | I say, Tom, do n''t you think there is a robber''s cave about here somewhere? 62866 I want Joe to earn them hundred and twenty dollars; see the p''int?" |
62866 | I wonder if a stranger thing than this ever happened? |
62866 | I wonder what has come over Dan all on a sudden? |
62866 | I wonder what they will conclude to do about it? |
62866 | I? |
62866 | If that howling dervish has settled down there for the winter, how shall we get rid of him? |
62866 | Is Joe Morgan at home? |
62866 | Is it mine to keep, or to use while I am acting as game- warden? |
62866 | Is it simply an excuse to get out of school for the winter? |
62866 | Is it the same as a game- constable? |
62866 | Is n''t that so? |
62866 | Is one of them taken? |
62866 | Is that all you''ve got to say? |
62866 | Is that all? |
62866 | Is that you, Tom Hallet? |
62866 | It sorter hurts you to know that there is them in the world that are just as lucky and smart as you be, do n''t it? 62866 It was a nice place, was n''t it?" |
62866 | It was your father and Dan who fired them guns a bit ago, was n''t it? |
62866 | It''s a long time since you seen this here little tool, ai n''t it? |
62866 | It''s a soft thing, so far as the perviding goes, but what''s the work? 62866 Let''s see-- how far did we get?" |
62866 | Looks kinder like it used to last winter, do n''t it? 62866 Mother, your hard days are all over, and I can go to school, ca n''t I? |
62866 | Not all of it? |
62866 | Now do n''t it bang you what mean luck some fellers do have? 62866 Now that I think of it, what right had we to touch this grip- sack?" |
62866 | Now what''s to be done? |
62866 | Now, Dan, what''s the use of talking that way? |
62866 | Now, do n''t that beat you? |
62866 | Now, what arrangements shall we make about dinner? |
62866 | Of nights? 62866 Oh, it''s you, is it? |
62866 | Or the twelve thousand dollars in bills, and three hundred in gold? |
62866 | Say, Joe, have you thought over that little plan of mine? |
62866 | Say, Joey, you''ll keep old man Warren''s rifle, to take the place of the scatter- gun you lost, wo n''t you? |
62866 | Say, father,said Joe, suddenly,"what are you going to do with your captive? |
62866 | Say, pap,he continued, in a hurried whisper,"do n''t it beat the world how some folks can make money without ever trying? |
62866 | Say, pap,he whispered excitedly,"dog- gone my buttons, what did you go and lock yourself up for? |
62866 | Say-- don''t it bang you? |
62866 | See them tools I took away from him? |
62866 | Seen who? 62866 So you thought you would fool your poor old pap this morning, did you, you little snipe?" |
62866 | The first question is this: Did the letter that father took from his wood- pile look faded and soiled, as if it had been rained and snowed on? |
62866 | Them English partridges? |
62866 | Them thick bushes shuts out all the light of the sun, do n''t they? |
62866 | Then I''ll be a gentlemen like the rest of''em, wo n''t I? |
62866 | Then he''ll go with the feller, to keep track of the letter, wo n''t he? |
62866 | Then how are we going to get that fortune? |
62866 | Then how would we make a living? |
62866 | Then how''ll mam get the things she wants? |
62866 | Then what did you shoot at? |
62866 | Then where''s the money to come from? 62866 Then who''s going to give it to me?" |
62866 | Then why did n''t you come to the door and say so like a man, instead of trying to scare me by looking in at the window? 62866 Then why do n''t you help me?" |
62866 | Then why do n''t you report_ them_ fellers? |
62866 | Then you think there is some one hidden in the gulf? |
62866 | Then, what do you keep up such a whistling for? 62866 Then, why do n''t you pay some heed to it? |
62866 | Then, why do n''t you think it over? |
62866 | They got in their work pretty lively, did n''t they? 62866 This bangs me; do n''t it you? |
62866 | Tom and Bob? |
62866 | Was it a dummy? |
62866 | Was that the only reason you had for giving me that advice? |
62866 | Was-- was it a man? |
62866 | We do n''t get none of it, do we? |
62866 | We? |
62866 | Well, I done it, did n''t I? |
62866 | Well, Joseph,said Mr. Warren, cheerfully,"going to school next term?" |
62866 | Well, go on; what was it? |
62866 | Well, it is n''t their fault, is it? |
62866 | Well, old fellow,said Joe, cheerily,"why did n''t you come around and see my new home? |
62866 | Well, sir, we done it, did n''t we? |
62866 | Well, that was what you were put here for, was n''t it? 62866 Well, that''s the way them hants do, ai n''t it?" |
62866 | Well, then, what''s the matter of you? |
62866 | Well, then, why ai n''t you satisfied? 62866 Well, they covered you with their revolvers; then what?" |
62866 | Well, we know now for certain that the money''s there, do n''t we? |
62866 | Well, what are we going to do about arresting those thieves? |
62866 | Well, what do you think of it by this time? |
62866 | Well, who''s down there? |
62866 | Well, you see what you made by it, do n''t you? |
62866 | Were you acting as their guide when they released you? |
62866 | What ailed them? |
62866 | What air you doing here, Joe Morgan? |
62866 | What are you doing here? |
62866 | What are you going to do about it? |
62866 | What are you pointing that gun at me for? 62866 What be you going to do, Dannie?" |
62866 | What did he say? 62866 What did it look like? |
62866 | What do you mean by that pantomime? |
62866 | What do you reckon he wants to show you? |
62866 | What do you reckon that stingy Joe of our''n has come back here to tell mam? |
62866 | What do you say now? |
62866 | What do you think I had better do about it? 62866 What do you think suggested to them the idea of making use of a dummy to frighten folks away from their hiding- place?" |
62866 | What does old man Warren know about it? |
62866 | What doing? |
62866 | What for wo n''t he? |
62866 | What for, wo n''t we? |
62866 | What for? |
62866 | What for? |
62866 | What for? |
62866 | What for? |
62866 | What ghost? |
62866 | What has become of them? |
62866 | What has father got to say about my business? |
62866 | What in the name of sense and Tom Walker was it? |
62866 | What in the world put that notion into your heads, anyway? |
62866 | What is there up there in the hills that''s going to hurt me? |
62866 | What kind of a feller is that? |
62866 | What kind of a looking thing was that dummy? |
62866 | What makes you say that? |
62866 | What makes you think there are two of them? |
62866 | What of it? |
62866 | What setters? |
62866 | What sort of a job is that, do you reckon? |
62866 | What sort of an object was it that Dan shot at? |
62866 | What sort of business? |
62866 | What was it? |
62866 | What''s happened? |
62866 | What''s in it? |
62866 | What''s that? |
62866 | What''s the fool studying about, do you reckon? |
62866 | What''s the matter of you? |
62866 | What''s the matter with him? |
62866 | What''s the matter? |
62866 | What''s the matter? |
62866 | What''s the trouble here? |
62866 | What''s the use of going to all that trouble? |
62866 | What''s the use? 62866 Where be they?" |
62866 | Where is he? 62866 Where is mother now?" |
62866 | Where is your guide, and why did n''t he show you the way to the Beach? |
62866 | Where were you when they captured him? |
62866 | Where''s Bob? |
62866 | Where''s father and Dan? |
62866 | Who are you? |
62866 | Who did it? 62866 Who in the world has been using my wood- pile for a post- office, I''d like to know?" |
62866 | Who is he? |
62866 | Who said anything about Dan? |
62866 | Who said anything to you? |
62866 | Who''ll give that there order? |
62866 | Who''s been a- follering of you? 62866 Why did n''t you veer around a bit, and lead them toward the railroad?" |
62866 | Why did you not answer my calls for help? |
62866 | Why do n''t he speak up and say he''ll take it? 62866 Why do n''t they drive their own team?" |
62866 | Why do n''t you go down to the gorge? |
62866 | Why do n''t you make him give it to you, and then you can spend it as you please? |
62866 | Why do n''t you stay and watch the hant, and let me go after the money? |
62866 | Why not, I''d like to know? |
62866 | Why not? |
62866 | Why should n''t I? 62866 Why, Joseph, you are not going back there?" |
62866 | Why, how did it happen? |
62866 | Will you be quick about it? |
62866 | With lots of money in it? |
62866 | With them six hundred dollars''worth of birds running around loose and no law to pertect''em? |
62866 | Wo n''t, eh? |
62866 | Would it inconvenience you to stir around and get a fire going? 62866 You ai n''t forgot what I told you awhile back, I reckon, have you?" |
62866 | You and I? |
62866 | You did n''t? |
62866 | You do n''t like it, do you? |
62866 | You do n''t think this man is foolish enough to try to run off while his hands are tied, do you? 62866 You have got to earn all the money that comes into the family this winter, ai n''t you?" |
62866 | You heard me remind him that I had given him a handsome sum of money to put me in the way of a good day''s shooting, did you not? 62866 You placed our robbers''cave down there, did n''t you?" |
62866 | You remember them English pa''tridges he brought over here to stock his woods, the same year he built that big hotel down to the Beach, do n''t you? |
62866 | You still think it was a man, and not a wild beast that yelled at us? |
62866 | You thought to steal them p''inters, I reckon, did n''t you? 62866 You will guide me to the Beach, of course?" |
62866 | You will, eh? |
62866 | Ai n''t I going to make a power of money this winter?" |
62866 | Ai n''t it a lucky thing for me, Joey, that I give up them setter dogs to- day?" |
62866 | Ai n''t there a good ferry right in front of the door, and ca n''t we take care of them that wants to go back and forth?" |
62866 | And anybody that wants that old scow for their own can have it, ca n''t they?" |
62866 | And how am I going to do it if you do n''t stay with me?" |
62866 | And what''s to hender you from getting it for you own? |
62866 | And where''ll I put it after I get it so that it will be safe? |
62866 | And who''s been a- follering of you?" |
62866 | Anything missing? |
62866 | Are you listening to your pap?" |
62866 | Are you not coming back?" |
62866 | Be you going back to your shanty now?" |
62866 | Besides, how do I know that you would n''t shoot some of my blue- headed birds, as Morgan calls them?" |
62866 | Besides, how is old man Warren going to tell whether it was me or some of them city sportsmen that shot''em?" |
62866 | Brown?" |
62866 | But I want to get even with old man Warren for breaking up my business, do n''t I?" |
62866 | But how would it be with them? |
62866 | But it is n''t reasonable to suppose that we could all dream the same thing, is it? |
62866 | But what makes old man Warren come here to tell us about it?" |
62866 | But what sort of business? |
62866 | But where should he go? |
62866 | But why do you go against me in this way? |
62866 | Ca n''t we all shoot birds and rabbits when the season''s open, and snare''em when it''s shut? |
62866 | Can you stand it till we get home?" |
62866 | Come on; what''s the use of being so lazy? |
62866 | Did anybody ever hear of such luck? |
62866 | Did anybody ever hear of such luck? |
62866 | Did he find the owner?" |
62866 | Did he make a noise like that?" |
62866 | Did he tell you everything that happened in the gulf?" |
62866 | Did n''t I tell you the very first word I said that old man Warren had give the job to Joe?" |
62866 | Did n''t think of that, did you?" |
62866 | Did they have any birds?" |
62866 | Did they take any of your things, Tom?" |
62866 | Did they treat you well?" |
62866 | Did you ever hear of such amazing mean luck before? |
62866 | Did you read what was into it?" |
62866 | Do n''t it you?" |
62866 | Do n''t you think he will?" |
62866 | Do you ask what it was that suggested to them the idea of making the shiftless and ignorant ferryman the victim of one of their practical jokes? |
62866 | Do you intend to sit up and watch him all night long?" |
62866 | Do you know what I did the minute I got home yesterday? |
62866 | Do you really think I had better stop at home?" |
62866 | Do you want to see your business busted up? |
62866 | Found a false bottom in that grip- sack?" |
62866 | Have you seen anything in the shape of grub, Tom?" |
62866 | Have you seen anything of Bob?" |
62866 | Have you seen your father and Daniel since they left the house this morning?" |
62866 | Have you thought better of it already?" |
62866 | He did n''t waste any time in going after that money, did he?" |
62866 | He has been so very quick about it, that I''m inclined to believe it was n''t Silas at all; but if it was he, why is he camping there?" |
62866 | He wanted to go with you; and then do you know what would have happened if you and him had captured one of them bugglars? |
62866 | He''ll stay around where that letter is till some one finds it, wo n''t he?" |
62866 | How come this dockyment in front of the wood- shed, do you reckon?" |
62866 | How many did they bring home with them? |
62866 | How much do you think these things are worth?" |
62866 | How much will them boats cost me, Joey?" |
62866 | I could n''t have better fellows for company, could I? |
62866 | I have the best notion in the world to--""Now, ca n''t you wait until I tell you?" |
62866 | I ran on to them before I knew it, and do you imagine I thought''robbers''once? |
62866 | I reckon you wish you''d stayed by me now, do n''t you? |
62866 | I reckon you wo n''t go back, will you, Joey?" |
62866 | I reckon you''re willing to believe now that he was a chasing of me a while ago, ai n''t you? |
62866 | I took particular pains to-- Now can anybody tell me what that means? |
62866 | I wonder could I out- run him?" |
62866 | I wonder if father and Dan will go?" |
62866 | I wonder what''s come over him all of a sudden? |
62866 | If I find it, I''ll have to bring it down on my wagon, wo n''t I? |
62866 | If I thought that was so, would n''t I try my level best to find some of it? |
62866 | If that is the case, what is there to hinder them from robbing our cabins at any time? |
62866 | If that was the case, we''d smell the smoke now, would n''t we?" |
62866 | If the men were on their trail, why did they not rush up and grab the valise? |
62866 | If there was n''t, it would n''t be a fortune, would it? |
62866 | If they had not violated the law in some way, why did they take so much pains to keep out of sight? |
62866 | Is old man Warren out there now? |
62866 | It was a fine place for an ambuscade, but if the enemy had concealed themselves there, why did they not come out? |
62866 | Just then the deputy, who had been sitting on a log to recover his breath, managed to inquire:"What have you done with your partners?" |
62866 | Now where be we going to hide it? |
62866 | Now, Joe, will you hold your jaw?" |
62866 | Now, father, how did you happen to catch him?" |
62866 | Now, how am I to get to the Beach? |
62866 | Now, is there any way I can work it so that mother can have everything she wants, and yet be able to say that she has n''t got a cent in the house?" |
62866 | Now, then, where''s that there--""That there what? |
62866 | Now, what comes next?" |
62866 | Now, what shall we take besides our lunch? |
62866 | Now, what''s to be done about it?" |
62866 | Now, who''ll I get to read it for me? |
62866 | Now, will you hand over that letter, so''t I can take another look at the map and make sure that I know where the cave is?" |
62866 | Now, will you hold your tongue, or not?" |
62866 | Now, will you tell me when you want me to go up there, and just what you expect me to?" |
62866 | Oh, Dannie, why did n''t we shoot a little lower?" |
62866 | Oh, you did n''t know that Hallet had hired them for wardens, did you? |
62866 | Say, Joey, if our squad gobbles both them bugglars, how much''ll that be for each of us?" |
62866 | Say, feller, what have you done with him?" |
62866 | Say, pap, what be we follering the beach for? |
62866 | See the p''int? |
62866 | See the point?" |
62866 | Seen any account of it in the papers, Tom?" |
62866 | That sounds all right, does n''t it? |
62866 | That would be a good place to put the cave, would n''t it?" |
62866 | Then, aloud, he asked,"Did it frighten you to think that you had a fair prospect of lying out all night?" |
62866 | There ai n''t nary one of''em worth five cents a piece, and where be they going to get the money to pay their fines? |
62866 | They went to Canada after that, did n''t they? |
62866 | Think somebody was about to steal all the gold dishes? |
62866 | Understand? |
62866 | WHO FIRED THE FOUR SHOTS? |
62866 | WHO FIRED THE FOUR SHOTS? |
62866 | Want anything in my line this morning?" |
62866 | Warren?" |
62866 | Warren?" |
62866 | Was his father about to side with Joe? |
62866 | We do n''t care if they do put a bridge down there to our house and bust up the ferrying business, do we, Dannie? |
62866 | We went up the beach till we struck the brook that comes out of the gulf, and we follered that till-- till--""You found the cave?" |
62866 | Well, Tom, what do you say? |
62866 | Well, then, shall we tell him about the ghost, or shall we skip that?" |
62866 | Well, what of it? |
62866 | What are you growling about?" |
62866 | What be you going to do with yours, when you get it?" |
62866 | What did you see up there in the gulf that frightened you so badly?" |
62866 | What do the scales say in regard to his weight?" |
62866 | What do they want to put a bridge across here for, anyway? |
62866 | What do you say?" |
62866 | What do you say?" |
62866 | What has come over you all of a sudden?" |
62866 | What if the enemy had heard their approach, in spite of all the pains they had taken to keep them in ignorance of it, and prepared an ambush for them? |
62866 | What is it, Joe?" |
62866 | What is it? |
62866 | What is to hinder them from doing as much shooting as they please at one end of the wood- lot, while I am skirmishing around the other end? |
62866 | What kind of a beast do you think it was, anyway? |
62866 | What was you saying, Dannie?" |
62866 | What would Mr. Warren think of me if I should throw up my situation before I had fairly entered upon its duties? |
62866 | What you laughing at, you big fool?" |
62866 | What''s five dollars alongside the ten thousand we might have had if we had n''t been such fools? |
62866 | What''s the matter of you?" |
62866 | What''s the matter with you two anyway?" |
62866 | When Tom ceased speaking, he said:"And so you knew that there was something in the gorge before you took possession of your cabin, did you? |
62866 | Where did they catch you? |
62866 | Where is he?" |
62866 | Where''s the other?" |
62866 | Who fired those four shots a while ago, and what did they shoot at?" |
62866 | Who is Mr. Warren going to hire for his warden?" |
62866 | Who is he talking to, I wonder?" |
62866 | Who knows but Joe may be telling her something about the money that''s in the cave?" |
62866 | Who knows but what the smell of powder and the whistle of shot about his ears will scare him so''t he will go away and never come back?" |
62866 | Who were they? |
62866 | Why did n''t he offer that soft job to me, instead of giving it to that Joe of our''n? |
62866 | Why did n''t he think to go around the corner and look behind the chimney? |
62866 | Why do n''t you let out that rope a little?" |
62866 | Why do you ask?" |
62866 | Will you be sensible and go pardners, or have your business busted up?" |
62866 | Would n''t that be a joyful day to me, though? |
62866 | Would n''t they make good use of some of it before many hours had passed away? |
62866 | You are pretty fellows to talk about living up there alone in the woods this winter, are you not?'' |
62866 | You have got the burglars in your own hands now, and I do n''t reckon you would mind passing it over, would you?" |
62866 | You remember them blue- headed birds you killed for him last year, do n''t you?" |
62866 | You see what you made by it, do n''t you? |
62866 | You see-- Where''s your lantern?" |
62866 | You will be on hand, of course?" |
62866 | You''ll come, wo n''t you, Joe, and help us hunt down those villains who have kidnapped Bob Emerson?" |
62866 | You''re going to have the softest kind of a job all winter, and make stacks and piles of money, and never give a cent of it to mam, be you?" |
62866 | You''ve had visitors already, have n''t you? |
62866 | and what have you lost?" |
62866 | exclaimed Bob, with a laugh,"did n''t you assure me that we would n''t hear anything go b- r- r- r?" |
62866 | exclaimed Silas, impatiently,"Do n''t you know that hants ca n''t tote nothing away,''cause they''re sperits? |
62866 | said Dan, with a grin,"you do n''t mean it?" |
62866 | said he, addressing himself to Joe;"and what''s become of Bob?" |
62866 | what''s the matter of you?" |
62866 | who''s them fellers?" |
62866 | you''re going back on your mam, are you?" |
21241 | A glass of maraschino, gentlemen? |
21241 | A smuggler, is he? |
21241 | A what? |
21241 | According to rank, Lopez,cried Jarauta, seeing that all was ready;"the captain first-- do you hear?" |
21241 | All ready there, Lopez? |
21241 | All ready there? 21241 All ready, then, are you? |
21241 | Alone? |
21241 | An American? |
21241 | And Jack? |
21241 | And how did you expect to reach us in the corral? |
21241 | And how long have you been in the army, Senor Capitan? |
21241 | And if any of them is missing-- is missing, do you hear? |
21241 | And so you have joined the volunteers? |
21241 | And the gentleman? |
21241 | And the smugglers? |
21241 | And the young ladies--"And the young ladies? |
21241 | And then on to Orizava? |
21241 | And they are well?--all well? |
21241 | And what signify numbers? |
21241 | And where is your cousin now? |
21241 | And why not send for it? |
21241 | And, sir, what mean you? 21241 Are they abed, think you?" |
21241 | Are they alone? 21241 Are they dead?" |
21241 | Are you a good horseman? |
21241 | Are you hurt, Raoul? |
21241 | Are you well acquainted with Vera Cruz? |
21241 | Are your comrades all similarly bound? |
21241 | As you please, gentlemen; but you will then return this way, and proceed to your camp? |
21241 | At what point? |
21241 | Ay, where? |
21241 | But beyond the hacienda? |
21241 | But how came you, Narcisso, to be with the guerilla? |
21241 | But how did you find us, Major? |
21241 | But how far--_hombre_? |
21241 | But how is he to get out? |
21241 | But how, Senor? |
21241 | But how, then, did you come here? |
21241 | But what brought you to New Orleans? 21241 But what is a hollow square of fifty men? |
21241 | But where are the Frenchmen? |
21241 | But where are the guerilleros? |
21241 | But where is he? |
21241 | But where is old Bios? 21241 But where on earth is your pewter?" |
21241 | But who cut the rope? |
21241 | But who? 21241 But why do they halt here?" |
21241 | But why, Captain?--why? |
21241 | But your soldiers, Capitan? |
21241 | Ca n''t we steal out at night? |
21241 | Can it be--? |
21241 | Can not we move in a hollow square? |
21241 | Can we pass out here? |
21241 | Can you bring them opposite, then? |
21241 | Can you hit that man with the sponge? |
21241 | Can you place your hands in the aperture? |
21241 | Captain Haller? |
21241 | Captain Hennessy? |
21241 | Captain? |
21241 | Clayley, will you do me the favour to order the men to their saddles? |
21241 | Come, Captain; shall we feed? |
21241 | Could you not make her understand you? 21241 Could you reach the trap on a run, without the danger of mistaking your way?" |
21241 | De yez think, Raowl, she''s gone after the licker? |
21241 | Did they say where they were going? |
21241 | Did you know that voice, Captain? |
21241 | Did_ you_ dream of meeting Marguerita again? |
21241 | Do n''t you like it, Murtagh? |
21241 | Do n''t you think, Captain,said he,"we''ve gone far enough into the cursed country? |
21241 | Do n''t_ you_ think so? |
21241 | Do you know if the prairie wolf is found here? |
21241 | Do you think he understands English? |
21241 | Do you think they are any of our people? |
21241 | Do you think you can reach him? |
21241 | Do you think, Captain, it_ will_ stop a shot? |
21241 | Don Emilio? 21241 Don Santiago?" |
21241 | For what reason? |
21241 | For what? |
21241 | From Don Cosme? |
21241 | Full of what? |
21241 | Gentlemen,said I to my brother officers, as we came together,"can you suggest any mode of escape?" |
21241 | Give him his hands, too; he''ll need them to keep off the zopilotes; wo n''t he, Lopez? |
21241 | Gone? |
21241 | Ha!--how? 21241 Halted again?" |
21241 | Has any of you heard of Dubrosc on the route? |
21241 | Have n''t I, though? 21241 Have you a choice, monsieur?" |
21241 | Have you a pigeon in your pocket? |
21241 | Have you determined, Major Twing? |
21241 | He is new, then? |
21241 | Hercules? |
21241 | How all right then? |
21241 | How am I to prevent them? |
21241 | How are we to send, Major? |
21241 | How are yer ter get out, Cap''n? |
21241 | How can I best pass the hour? 21241 How can I? |
21241 | How deep are you? |
21241 | How do you expect us to eat, then? |
21241 | How do you know that? |
21241 | How do you like Mexico, Senor? |
21241 | How far distant is this plain? |
21241 | How fur''s the crik, Rowl? |
21241 | How know you this? |
21241 | How know you? |
21241 | How long do you think we may be gone? |
21241 | How long will the storm continue? |
21241 | How many? |
21241 | How would_ you_ like to make it? |
21241 | How, sir? |
21241 | How? |
21241 | How? |
21241 | How? |
21241 | How?--swim it? |
21241 | How?--why, Senor? |
21241 | Hurt? 21241 I ask you who fired the shot?" |
21241 | I may ration them for one day? |
21241 | I say, Antonio-- you''re sure this road leads out above? |
21241 | I say, Raowl, does she consint? |
21241 | I thought that you_ contrabandistas_ hardly needed the precaution of dark nights? |
21241 | I wonder if they are going to hang us to- night, or keep us till morning? 21241 Is it loaded, Major?" |
21241 | Is it possible? |
21241 | Is not all our fine ambuscade for nothing? |
21241 | Is that Colonel Rawley? |
21241 | Is the Senorito Narcisso within? |
21241 | Is there no way to save him, Raoul? |
21241 | It is possible, then, to reach the town by these? |
21241 | It is? |
21241 | It was a shell,said he, in a wheezing voice,"Are you hurt, Captain?" |
21241 | It''s blissid kind of yez, gentlemen,said Chane;"but how are we goin''to ate it, if ye plaze?" |
21241 | It''s got a worse complaint than the colour, did n''t yez fetch us a thrifle more of it, my darlint boy? |
21241 | It_ was_ you, then? |
21241 | Jalapa? 21241 Jarauta?" |
21241 | Let us go below-- can you see any light? |
21241 | Lieutenant Claiborne,continued he, addressing an officer the youngest in rank,"what sentence?" |
21241 | Lieutenant Clayley? |
21241 | Lieutenant Hillis? |
21241 | Like? |
21241 | Long? 21241 Look for yourself-- well?" |
21241 | Lopez, these I perceive are gentlemen of rank, and we must send them out of the world a little more gracefully, do you hear? |
21241 | Major Blossom, I presume? |
21241 | May I ask what countryman you are? |
21241 | Mounted, think you? |
21241 | Mules? |
21241 | No I-- is that phwhat ye say, my darlint? 21241 No harm, I reckin, Cap''n?" |
21241 | No kicking or tumbling about, eh? |
21241 | No,I replied;"and you?" |
21241 | Old Bios, eh? 21241 On the island?" |
21241 | Over what? 21241 Perhaps you would prefer_ julienne_ or_ vermicelli_, gentlemen?" |
21241 | Phwhat diz she say, Raowl? |
21241 | Phwhat''s that he sez, Raowl? |
21241 | Safe somewhere,replied Clayley;"but where the deuce can he be? |
21241 | Senor Capitan, what do you mean? |
21241 | Senor Coronel, permit me--"What is it, my dear Don? |
21241 | Senor Coronel, would you prefer a glass of Majorca? |
21241 | So he was in the_ rinconada_, you say? 21241 So, good lieutenant, you have been improving your time, I hear?" |
21241 | Take out the gag-- let him have his tongue free; he''ll need that to pray with-- won''t he, Lopez? |
21241 | Tell her, Raowl, I''ve got no money, becase I have been rabbed, de ye see? 21241 Tell me, my dear,"continued Chane,"are yez married?" |
21241 | That will be much prettier-- won''t it, Lopez? |
21241 | That''s all-- is it? |
21241 | That''s true; but how the deuce are we to get back again? 21241 The Death, Cap''n?--what do yer mean?" |
21241 | The boy!--what boy? |
21241 | The gentleman will have time to make himself ready for heaven before he dies-- won''t he, Lopez? |
21241 | The gentlemen rested well; did n''t they, Lopez? |
21241 | The man-- the Mexican? 21241 The old fellow was mighty frindly at first; what got into him, anyhow?" |
21241 | They appeared to wonder--"Well? |
21241 | To be sure-- why not? |
21241 | Very well-- what are you waiting for? |
21241 | Wal, Cap''n,said he, after I had concluded my examination of the corpse,"ai n''t he a picter?" |
21241 | We are coming to another precipice? |
21241 | We are near the house-- will you still make the attempt to take him along? |
21241 | We look like firing a shot, do n''t we? 21241 Well, Captain,"broke in the sharp voice of Jarauta,"what do you think of it? |
21241 | Well, Clayley? |
21241 | Well, Lopez, does any of them say` yes''? |
21241 | Well, Lopez, what says Saint Patrick? 21241 Well, Major-- what''s to be done?" |
21241 | Well, Senor, what''s this? |
21241 | Well, Sergeant, what is it? |
21241 | Well, thin, my purty little_ moochacha_, cudn''t yez?--ye know what I mane-- cudn''t yez? 21241 Well, what is it?" |
21241 | Well-- what of that? |
21241 | Well? |
21241 | Well? |
21241 | Well? |
21241 | Well? |
21241 | What accidents? |
21241 | What can it mean? 21241 What church?" |
21241 | What countryman? 21241 What did he say, Nath, as he was running off?" |
21241 | What did they say? |
21241 | What do you mean, Sergeant? |
21241 | What do you mean? |
21241 | What do_ you_ do fighting among these heretics against your own religion? 21241 What does the man mean with his_ grashes_?" |
21241 | What have I got between my lips? 21241 What have you there?" |
21241 | What is it, Bob? |
21241 | What is it, Captain? |
21241 | What is it, Raoul? |
21241 | What is it? |
21241 | What is it? |
21241 | What is it? |
21241 | What is it? |
21241 | What is terrible? |
21241 | What is that, Raoul? 21241 What is the hour?" |
21241 | What is to be done? 21241 What is to be done? |
21241 | What is to be done? |
21241 | What next? 21241 What next?" |
21241 | What on earth are you at, Captain? |
21241 | What reason? |
21241 | What say you to going with us? |
21241 | What skeleton? |
21241 | What the deuce has got into Blossom? |
21241 | What time is it, Captain? |
21241 | What was it, then? |
21241 | What would I not give-- what would I not do-- to be the hero of such a heart? |
21241 | What''s the matter, Bob? |
21241 | What? 21241 What?--howl-- what''s the matter!--what''s this?" |
21241 | Where are the dogs? |
21241 | Where are these Yankees? |
21241 | Where are we, Raoul? |
21241 | Where do those arches lead that open from the sea? 21241 Where do you think they are taking us, Raoul?" |
21241 | Where have you been? |
21241 | Where is he? |
21241 | Where''s the padre? |
21241 | Where-- where? |
21241 | Which of you remembers the course, that you could follow it in a gallop? |
21241 | Which one, Sergeant? |
21241 | Who can it be Jack? 21241 Who is he, Antone?" |
21241 | Who is it? |
21241 | Who knows whether they''ve killed` El Cojo''? |
21241 | Who on earth is the old fellow calling? |
21241 | Who taught you English? |
21241 | Who will volunteer to ride an express to camp? |
21241 | Who? |
21241 | Whom did you see, Jack? |
21241 | Whom prisoners? |
21241 | Why did you not tell me that before? 21241 Why do you hate it, Captain?" |
21241 | Why do you hope so? |
21241 | Why not send for a couple of regiments? |
21241 | Why so, Captain? |
21241 | Why think you we are with Cenobio''s guerilla? |
21241 | Why, Captain, what''s the matter? 21241 Why, Senor Capitan,"said he,"your accent!--you are a foreigner?" |
21241 | Why, Senor,inquired the boy without listening,"how have you got out of prison? |
21241 | Why, how long have you been in the country, then? |
21241 | Why, what could we do? |
21241 | Why, what was the matter, Major? |
21241 | Why, who but the bold Blossom? |
21241 | Why? |
21241 | Why?--how? 21241 Will the ladies not object to that?" |
21241 | Will yer allow me, Cap''n, ter take a couple o''files, and fetch in the Dutchman? 21241 Will you try another, Senor Coronel?" |
21241 | Wo n''t you allow us the use of our fingers? |
21241 | You are sure they are missing? |
21241 | You call yourself victim, Marie? 21241 You do not need them any longer?" |
21241 | You have? 21241 You know him, then?" |
21241 | You mean to say, then, that my love is` all in my eye''? |
21241 | You need refreshment, gentlemen; will you come to my house? |
21241 | You smoke, gentlemen? 21241 You think he was waiting for us?" |
21241 | You think he will exchange them, then? |
21241 | You will have them at the Eagle''s Cave by six in the morning; by six, do you hear? |
21241 | You will soon return, Enrique? |
21241 | You would kiss my hand? 21241 Your foil is not in order; it has lost the button, has it not?" |
21241 | _ Cafe_, Senores? |
21241 | _ Esta el Capitan_? |
21241 | _ Muchacha_? 21241 _ No han cenado, caballeros_?" |
21241 | _ Puchero_, Senor Coronel? |
21241 | _ Que cosa_? |
21241 | _ Que cosa_? |
21241 | _ Que dice_? |
21241 | _ Que dice_? |
21241 | _ Que quiere_? |
21241 | _ Quien es_? |
21241 | _ Quien sabe_? |
21241 | _ Quien viva_? |
21241 | _ Quien_? |
21241 | _ Quien_? |
21241 | _ Quien_? |
21241 | _ Y son esos Americanos_? |
21241 | ( And are these Americans?) |
21241 | ( And the fat gentleman?) |
21241 | ( Guadalupe, do you love me?) |
21241 | ( Is it the captain?) |
21241 | ( Sentinel, look out), and the sharp challenge,"_ Quien viva_?" |
21241 | ( What do you want?) |
21241 | ( What does he say?) |
21241 | ( What is it?) |
21241 | ( What''s the matter?) |
21241 | ( Who fired?) |
21241 | ( Who goes there?) |
21241 | ( Who knows?) |
21241 | ( Who?) |
21241 | A dozen voices called out together:"Who fired that gun?" |
21241 | A moment after, half a dozen of the guerilleros burst open the door and rushed in, crying out as they entered:"_ Quien tira_?" |
21241 | A nice soft floor to dance upon, is n''t it, Lopez?" |
21241 | All alive yet?" |
21241 | An officer, eh? |
21241 | An''whar''s the other eend?" |
21241 | And are they not being carried-- father, mother, and all-- before some tribunal? |
21241 | And how should I be received by her with such a tale upon my lips? |
21241 | And what''s this?" |
21241 | Are not our souls in communion through some mysterious means? |
21241 | Are our eyes not held together by some invisible chain? |
21241 | Are they prisoners in the hands of these half- robbers? |
21241 | Are those eyes swimming with love, or gratitude, or both at once? |
21241 | As I live,''tis a Mexican craft!--who can have brought it here? |
21241 | At that distance from us the woods began; but could we reach them before our pursuers would overtake us? |
21241 | Bob Lincoln of the Peaks?" |
21241 | Bob Lincoln? |
21241 | Bob, what is it?" |
21241 | But how did this hyur whang kum cuf? |
21241 | But how to get out? |
21241 | But if that be his character, how can he be elected?" |
21241 | But is she so? |
21241 | But no; what good would it be to me? |
21241 | But what could we do-- five men, almost unarmed? |
21241 | But where are the messengers of commerce with their white wings? |
21241 | But where? |
21241 | But who could the woman be whose voice I had heard pleading in my behalf? |
21241 | But why ai n''t you a- gwine to Mexico? |
21241 | But will you be safe? |
21241 | By the way, how has the fellow obtained such influence as he appeared to have among them, and so soon, too?" |
21241 | Can she, too, be suffering? |
21241 | Can you find seats there? |
21241 | Can you tell the meaning of that cry?" |
21241 | Clayley and the major looked towards me with an expression that said,"Shall we go in?" |
21241 | Cordova? |
21241 | Could they be stolen out after night? |
21241 | Could they have turned off on some other route? |
21241 | Could this be a woman? |
21241 | Could this scene not last for ever? |
21241 | Cudjo, where''s the screw?" |
21241 | Cudn''t yer put us in the crik bottom, Rowl?" |
21241 | De ye hear?" |
21241 | Did n''t I tell you?" |
21241 | Did n''t you, Lopez?" |
21241 | Do my eyes deceive me? |
21241 | Do n''t I, Lopez?" |
21241 | Do n''t you wish we had him on the lines?" |
21241 | Do n''t_ you_ think so?" |
21241 | Do you think you are ready?" |
21241 | Do you think you can pass them? |
21241 | Guide,"he added, turning fiercely to Raoul, and half- drawing his sword,"what''s this?" |
21241 | Had we not better return to camp?" |
21241 | Has my friend arisen?" |
21241 | How could I have taken it from either the one or the other, bound as I am? |
21241 | How could he have been here? |
21241 | How did he look?--what like?" |
21241 | How do you like that?" |
21241 | How have you been? |
21241 | How is he to reach us? |
21241 | How?" |
21241 | I bent towards my companion, and whispered to her in that language-- rich above all others in the vocabulary of the heart:"_ Guadalupe, tu me amas_?" |
21241 | I could not help muttering to myself:"Why, in the name of mischief, did the fellow tell me this till we had passed it?" |
21241 | I ejaculated;"is it so?" |
21241 | I entered my chamber-- to sleep? |
21241 | I exclaimed, as the memory of this man came over me;"why did I not bring more men? |
21241 | I exclaimed, grasping the glittering object which the hunter held towards me;"what have you done?" |
21241 | I gasped out, in the intensity of my fears,"is this the fiend himself? |
21241 | I get no sleep with these cursed gally- nippers and things; but, stay-- how many men have you got?" |
21241 | I hope you are well?" |
21241 | I must have pronounced the last words aloud, as Lincoln, who walked in my rear, stepped hastily up, and asked:"What did yer say, Cap''n?" |
21241 | I remember now; a blow-- but the Death?--the Death?" |
21241 | If yur kin iver save his life by givin''yur own, yur must do it, de ye hear?" |
21241 | Is he your friend?" |
21241 | Is it not so?" |
21241 | Is it not so?" |
21241 | Is she a prisoner like myself? |
21241 | Is that true?" |
21241 | Is the Johannisberg cool yet? |
21241 | It is not a mile distant?" |
21241 | Jack has a soft voice-- a small hand; but how could he be here, and with his hands free? |
21241 | Let us see-- was it the roof?" |
21241 | Look yonder!--there are a thousand of them crawling over the rocks?" |
21241 | Lopez, I have a better plan,"he cried:"why did I not think of it before? |
21241 | Major, would you have the goodness to ride forward, and prevent those fellows from galloping off?" |
21241 | May not their hospitality to us have brought them under proscription? |
21241 | Mexico?" |
21241 | Might we not mount them and escape? |
21241 | Monsieur le Capitaine,"shouted he, as he came near,"still alive? |
21241 | Murter, will yer stan''afore me? |
21241 | Narcisso!--you saw him?" |
21241 | Need I describe the joyful feelings that filled my heart at that moment? |
21241 | Not before breakfast, though?" |
21241 | Not yours?" |
21241 | Notwithstanding my assurance, I overheard Lincoln whisper to his nearest comrade:"What ther old Harry he s got into the cap?" |
21241 | Or are they travelling for protection with this band-- protection against the less scrupulous robbers that infest the country?" |
21241 | Orizava? |
21241 | Over the cliffs, do you hear? |
21241 | Perhaps you prefer champagne, Senores?" |
21241 | Privately, Raoul-- privately, do you hear?" |
21241 | Puebla? |
21241 | Reader, do_ you_ want me to come back? |
21241 | Rowl, axe yur friend for a piece o''twine, will yer?" |
21241 | Shall I be permitted to reach the ship?" |
21241 | Shall we? |
21241 | So-- give us your fist, old fellow; how are you? |
21241 | Stand by, my boys!--are your pistols all right?" |
21241 | Strange-- is it not? |
21241 | Suddenly letting go, he threw up his hands, and inquired with a look of anxiety:"_ Y el senor gordo_?" |
21241 | Surely she knows English enough for that?" |
21241 | Tell me, Narcisso, how came I by this?" |
21241 | That''s better-- isn''t it, Lopez?" |
21241 | The change in my manner-- so sudden-- how was she to account for it? |
21241 | The path had evidently led to this point, but where beyond? |
21241 | The troop was soon on the other side; but how were the animals forming the bridge to get themselves over? |
21241 | The_ wife_ of the handsomest man in Mexico? |
21241 | These are some of the men who were going to hang you, are they not?" |
21241 | They entered from the porch; but how did they get into it? |
21241 | Think of going with us?" |
21241 | To Mexico, did you mean?" |
21241 | To which friend?" |
21241 | Unless disturbed and angered, the snake might not bite; but was he not at that moment distilling some secret venom upon her lips? |
21241 | Was it a dream? |
21241 | Was it a sigh that caused her bosom to rise? |
21241 | Was it the rumbling of thunder? |
21241 | Was it this that rendered him repulsive? |
21241 | We overhauled a pair of the most elegant crayteurs you ever clapped eyes upon; and rich-- rich as Craysus-- wasn''t they, boys?" |
21241 | What are they?" |
21241 | What are you thinking of?" |
21241 | What are you up for?" |
21241 | What brother?" |
21241 | What can be the reason?" |
21241 | What can it be, Captain?" |
21241 | What de yer want?" |
21241 | What do you mean?" |
21241 | What do you say, Captain?" |
21241 | What do you think, Chane?" |
21241 | What else?" |
21241 | What other should have made this demonstration? |
21241 | What painter? |
21241 | What portrait, Senor?" |
21241 | What say you, Major? |
21241 | What say you, gentlemen?" |
21241 | What see I yonder? |
21241 | What think you?" |
21241 | What was to be done? |
21241 | What will you drink? |
21241 | What would I not have given for the"Rifle Rangers"at that moment? |
21241 | What, then, should have caused this difference in their manner? |
21241 | When did you arrive?" |
21241 | Where am I? |
21241 | Where is Major Blossom''s rifle?" |
21241 | Where is it anyhow?" |
21241 | Where''s the screw? |
21241 | Which of us knew that it might not in a few hours be his own fate? |
21241 | Who ever seed a yeller- hided Mexikin with them eyes and ha''r? |
21241 | Who is that man?" |
21241 | Who knows that we may not find work enough yet? |
21241 | Who then? |
21241 | Why ca n''t yer kum along? |
21241 | Why do n''t you go?" |
21241 | Why do you allow them to come so near?" |
21241 | Why should I dwell on it?" |
21241 | Why was it placed there, and not in my bosom or my button- hole? |
21241 | Will you favour me by accepting this?" |
21241 | Wo n''t he, Lopez?" |
21241 | Would this be the tidings I should carry to his home? |
21241 | Would you prefer a Havanna? |
21241 | Ye ai n''t badly skeert, air yur?" |
21241 | Yes, there was, too-- what am I thinking about? |
21241 | Yes, yes, we shall come; but where have you been since we met, Narcissito?" |
21241 | Yet where is her sympathy? |
21241 | Yet, is there not reproach in her looks? |
21241 | You are wet, Senor? |
21241 | You came up dove- hunting--_eh_? |
21241 | You have him round your neck, have n''t you?" |
21241 | You understand that, Lopez?" |
21241 | You understand that?" |
21241 | You would n''t have me ride plump into their works, would you?" |
21241 | You''re not going to back out?" |
21241 | _ Hola_, Sanchez, where''s your bugle?" |
21241 | _ Parlez- vous francais_,_ Monsieur_?" |
21241 | _ She_ was not there-- and where? |
21241 | ` Yankee Doodle'', do you hear?" |
21241 | ` Yes''or` no''?" |
21241 | a captain? |
21241 | all right? |
21241 | an American?" |
21241 | an what i''the name o''Nick''s them? |
21241 | and against four times that number of cavalry, with lances and lazos? |
21241 | and how?" |
21241 | and this morning, too?" |
21241 | and what followed?" |
21241 | and when did you expect him?" |
21241 | and who cut the wall from the outside, unless someone helped them? |
21241 | anyone hurt there?" |
21241 | are you sure of that, Major?" |
21241 | asked Don Cosme, as soon as they were gone;"how can I pass your lines? |
21241 | at the hacienda?" |
21241 | by the mirror?" |
21241 | caballeros_, why do n''t you strip before entering the_ bano_?" |
21241 | continued he, calling out in a tone of irony;"have you found Marguerita yet?" |
21241 | could it be?--dressed thus? |
21241 | cried Twing, coming up;"no bones broken? |
21241 | cried he, in a sneering voice,"_ comment vous portez- vous_? |
21241 | cried he,"what have we here? |
21241 | did yez see the rid sash?" |
21241 | echoed I, in some surprise;"what do you mean by that, Major?" |
21241 | exclaimed Clayley;"do they expect us to lick this up without either hands, spoons, or knives?" |
21241 | exclaimed he,"how did you get out? |
21241 | going so soon? |
21241 | have I not the explanation already? |
21241 | how to cross the open plain? |
21241 | how was that?" |
21241 | in the timber? |
21241 | inquired I;"who is he?" |
21241 | it ai n''t you, Cap''n Haller? |
21241 | kick me now, will yez?--will yez jist be plazed to trid upon the tail av my jacket?" |
21241 | killed, wounded, or missing?" |
21241 | or is she disguised, and perilling her life to save mine? |
21241 | or, more particularly, how came you into this scrape?" |
21241 | said the major, with a terrified look,"you do n''t think I could overtake such Arabs as them? |
21241 | say you so?" |
21241 | some music; we must have music: how can he dance without music? |
21241 | that you? |
21241 | the girls you spoke of-- the nymphs of the pond; but where the deuce are they?" |
21241 | then they rested well; it''s a good thing: they have a long journey before them-- haven''t they, Lopez?" |
21241 | then we may expect them from camp?" |
21241 | they are ten miles off, and, even if we could ride straight down the bluff with winged horses, what could our hundred men do in that jungle below? |
21241 | whar are yur, Jack?" |
21241 | what girls?" |
21241 | what has happened to me?" |
21241 | what is that?" |
21241 | what next?" |
21241 | what perplexes you, Captain?" |
21241 | what''s all this hyur channerin?" |
21241 | what''s the matter?" |
21241 | what--?" |
21241 | where is he?" |
21241 | which of the French?" |
21241 | who showed yer that trick? |
21241 | why, the country around is wild-- is it not?" |
21241 | yer wud hang me, wud yur?" |
21241 | you are hungry?" |
21241 | you have saved my children; how can I show you my gratitude?" |
21241 | you haven''t--?" |
21241 | you know it, then?" |
21241 | you routed the guerilla, then?" |
21241 | you speak English?" |
