11379 | But how does it happen that you are here, my son? |
11379 | But tell me, dearest, can souls communicate without speech or sign-- if they only love enough? |
11379 | But what does it mean, dear? 11379 But who is the stranger with them, David? |
11379 | But why did the scoundrels run away before finishing their infamous work? 11379 But why-- loving her-- should he wish to marry her against her will?" |
11379 | Can you see any clouds, David? 11379 Can you see the blue jay? |
11379 | Dearest, when a thing like this happens the law has to take certain--"What has the law to do with my uncle Philip''s clothes? 11379 Did David have to go through the big deadening, William?" |
11379 | Did n''t you get the coffee made to suit you, after all that rumpus? 11379 Do n''t you know me? |
11379 | Do you happen to know, William, what these distinguished gentlemen are discussing with such interest and gravity? 11379 Do you know where he is to be found in case I should want to send for him?" |

11379 | Is n''t he a bold buccaneer? |
11379 | Is this the same thing that has come down the ages? 11379 Let me think-- what kind would be best?" |
11379 | Now, what''s the use of raking all that up again? 11379 Ruth, my dear, what''s all this about some stranger''s bringing you home last night?" |
11379 | The first is this: How may a girl tell what people call''true love''from every other kind of love? 11379 They are a handsome, well- matched young couple, are they not?" |
11379 | Well, what are they? |
11379 | Well, what of it? |

11379 | What is it? |
11379 | What is it? |
11379 | What is your opinion, Father? 11379 What shall we do?" |
11379 | What time to- day did Pressley leave Cedar House? 11379 What was it that those men on horseback brought here? |
11379 | Where are you? 11379 Where is Ruth? |
11379 | Where is she? 11379 Where were you, William? |
11379 | Who are those men, Paul? 11379 Who fetched all these things?" |
11379 | Who is this gentleman, David? |
11379 | Who says Joe Daviess is going away? |
11379 | Who''s afraid of a comet with only one tail? 11379 Why not?" |
11379 | Why should n''t I be lively? |
11379 | Will you go with me, David? 11379 You ca n''t help not knowing anything, can you, poor dear?" |
11379 | You know him? |
11379 | You like them? |
11379 | And Philip Alston, who pretends to love her? |
11379 | And William Pressley is an honest man, is n''t he, even though such a solemn, pompous prig? |
11379 | And do you know any more about birds than you do about love, you poor dear? |
11379 | And even now, who knows whether or not that fearful price need have been paid? |
11379 | And is it true that none of the singing birds were here till the settlers came? |
11379 | And it''s a ticklish business, going over there in the dark, is n''t it, old man?" |
11379 | And may I see them, Sister? |
11379 | And then what was there to tell her or any one? |
11379 | And what are they doing here?" |
11379 | And what are you here for, my son? |
11379 | And what do you really think of it, Father?" |
11379 | And where is the doctor''s horse? |
11379 | And why do birds sing so seldom in the depths of the forest? |
11379 | Are they here? |
11379 | But how are we going to prove it?" |
11379 | But how does anybody know? |
11379 | But how long would it or could it stand against the doubts of the man she loved? |
11379 | By what means can they possibly have learned anything about the plan? |
11379 | Ca n''t you say what a fine fellow William is? |
11379 | Can it be one of the sure signs of true love to feel at the first sight of a face that it is the one you have most wanted to see all your life? |
11379 | Can it be possible that he has sent you-- on business? |
11379 | Can you hear the silvery ripple of their plaints? |
11379 | Can you hear them? |
11379 | Can you hear what I say? |
11379 | Can you hear-- dear heart? |
11379 | Can you realize that it''s true? |
11379 | Could I, dear?" |
11379 | Could this be Ruth speaking like that-- and to himself? |
11379 | Did any bird say so? |
11379 | Did n''t all the wasps and flies go blind and die sooner than common, right in the middle of the hottest weather? |
11379 | Did you know that he once held a high office under Spain? |
11379 | Did you see or hear them, Father?" |
11379 | Do n''t you see he is n''t well? |
11379 | Do n''t you see? |
11379 | Do you hear? |
11379 | Do you know that girl? |
11379 | Do you think so, David? |
11379 | Does it still interest you, Father? |
11379 | Had he come back when you came away? |
11379 | Has anything happened to Ruth? |
11379 | Has anything happened?" |
11379 | Has n''t he always been our best friend?" |
11379 | Have you seen him? |
11379 | Have you the slightest idea how they could have learned anything of our plan?" |
11379 | He is determined to put it in motion before he leaves for Tippecanoe--""Then he is really going?" |
11379 | How can he endure to see her, much less profess fondness for her, knowing what he has done?" |
11379 | How can it be so hot in December? |
11379 | How can she be?" |
11379 | How can she tell? |
11379 | How could we have forgotten?" |
11379 | How did they find out enough to enable them to set this villanous trap? |
11379 | How do the signs of true love look? |
11379 | How do they feel, I wonder? |
11379 | How do you think they found out? |
11379 | How is it with you?" |
11379 | I certainly have not-- have you?" |
11379 | I have n''t seen any reason to change, have you? |
11379 | If I could do my part as well as you do yours, we would n''t fail so often, would we, old man?" |
11379 | If I could only once get my hand on a particle of evidence.--Do you suppose he could have known what we were talking about?" |
11379 | Is anything wrong with Ruth? |
11379 | Is he badly, hurt? |
11379 | Is it decided that he will go?" |
11379 | Is it the same that made a dignified gentleman, like David, dance-- as those fanatics are doing down there-- till he became a laughing- stock? |
11379 | Is it the same that made a sensible man like Saul join his faith to a witch and believe that he saw visions? |
11379 | Is it the same that we find in the Bible-- making great men and wise ones do such wild things? |
11379 | Is it you-- uncle Philip? |
11379 | Is n''t it good?" |
11379 | Is n''t it like a chime of fairy bells, heard in a dream? |
11379 | Is n''t it ready?" |
11379 | Is she your sister? |
11379 | Is there anything in the science of your profession to explain it? |
11379 | It would n''t be possible for you to do that, would it?" |
11379 | Looking upward toward his own reward, even this bitter, black winter''s night became as nothing; but Toby-- what was there for Toby? |
11379 | May I ask, sir, if you can tell me the precise date of the attorney- general''s departure-- for the seat of war, I mean-- for Tippecanoe?" |
11379 | May I read it now? |
11379 | Oh-- why-- don''t you come to me? |
11379 | Ruth must know sooner or later, and, knowing, would she still love him? |
11379 | See-- was there ever anything so lovely?" |
11379 | So that he now plunged in without any address at all:"I say-- who pays for them there youngsters, yonder?" |
11379 | The question is-- How? |
11379 | The very trees, the very leaves on the trees, seemed to be singing together and praising God.... Will you share this divine peace with me? |
11379 | Then flashing round on him in her impetuous way:"Why do n''t you say that you feel his heart beat? |
11379 | There is no reason, is there, to think that she does n''t love the young man? |
11379 | Was he going with the attorney- general to Tippecanoe? |
11379 | We are all proud of him-- hey, judge?" |
11379 | We''ve gone over all that-- and more than once-- haven''t we? |
11379 | What are the robbers or the country to me-- beside him? |
11379 | What are they looking for? |
11379 | What business can he or any other decent man have with the nest of rattlesnakes that we ca n''t drag out from under that bluff?" |
11379 | What can it be? |
11379 | What did you say?" |
11379 | What do I care about what happens to the attorney- general? |
11379 | What do you make of it all? |
11379 | What do you mean by reading anything so tiresome out of that foolish book? |
11379 | What do you mean by speaking so to my uncle Robert? |
11379 | What do you think it could have been? |
11379 | What does it matter, after all-- our knowing nothing about ourselves, who we are, or where we came from? |
11379 | What have you allowed to happen to her? |
11379 | What have you done with the child? |
11379 | What if he has n''t?" |
11379 | What in the world can it mean, David? |
11379 | What is it you want? |
11379 | What is she doing? |
11379 | What is the matter with them? |
11379 | What is there to expect from him? |
11379 | What is there to put round them-- to wrap them in?" |
11379 | What is wrong? |
11379 | What makes you in such an all- fired hurry?" |
11379 | What possible object could Philip Alston have in concealing anything that he might know about you and me? |
11379 | What right had he to choose her husband? |
11379 | What should she do when he was gone? |
11379 | What under heaven could she have been doing there-- in such a place, at such a time? |
11379 | What was Ruth''s relation to Philip Alston? |
11379 | What was his hold upon Judge Knox? |
11379 | What was his influence over William Pressley? |
11379 | What was it?" |
11379 | What was this power that he wielded over the whole family of Cedar House? |
11379 | What''s the matter?" |
11379 | What''s the odds? |
11379 | Where do you think we came from, David? |
11379 | Where is William? |
11379 | Where is he? |
11379 | Where is she? |
11379 | Where is she?" |
11379 | Where were you going?" |
11379 | Which way did they go? |
11379 | Who are they?" |
11379 | Who are you that come here putting your hand on my niece, and ordering the family about? |
11379 | Who could blame the girl? |
11379 | Who ever heard of such a thing before? |
11379 | Who is that?" |
11379 | Who is with him?" |
11379 | Who knows? |
11379 | Who that has known the horse at his best can have failed to observe and recognize and be moved by this fact? |
11379 | Who would tell her? |
11379 | Why are you so slow?" |
11379 | Why did n''t we think to get your rifle? |
11379 | Why did you tell him?" |
11379 | Why do n''t you answer? |
11379 | Why do n''t you speak? |
11379 | Why do the leaves droop like that? |
11379 | Why do they always cross the stream in a slanting direction? |
11379 | Why do they never fly straight across? |
11379 | Will you come back with me to the chapel? |
11379 | Will you come into the other room and see them? |
11379 | Will you come with me this night to the foot of the cross?... |
11379 | Will you give it to me now, sir? |
11379 | Will you never come? |
11379 | Would she never reach it? |
11379 | You are out of place here; as Uncle Philip Alston says--""Then why did he put me here?" |
11379 | You do see, do n''t you?" |
11379 | You remembered, did n''t you, to tell him that the latch- string of Cedar House always hangs on the outside? |
11379 | You will remember-- and tell her?" |
11379 | You wo n''t mind stopping to tell Ruth, doctor? |
11379 | and what were you doing? |
11379 | she cried in wounded reproach,"how can you? |
