4709And there are the others-- what will they do while I am out of the running?
4709And what have you done?"

4709Peggy, will you feel better toward me if I tell you that I am going to begin life all over again?
4709Probably you and Mrs. Brewster were going to take a wedding trip, so why not go west with me in my car?
4709Shall I call a cab for you, sir?"
4709Shall it be the poorhouse?

2065Are you really going in for it, Dick?
2065Are you sure?
2065Be you plumb crazy?
2065Building an airship; eh?
2065But ca n''t you get the money any easier way?
2065But how are we going to get information from them?
2065But how are you going to do it?
2065But how in the world did you come to take up aviation, Larry?
2065But part of yours is good; is n''t it?
2065But what water can it be?
2065But wo n''t you let me send you to the station in the auto? 2065 Ca n''t you forget, for a while, that you''re at a military school, old man, and not give us the sort of stuff we get in class all the while?"
2065Ca n''t you guide her?
2065Can I relieve you?
2065Can he be out on deck?
2065Can we have gone in the wrong direction, and be back over the Atlantic?
2065Can you arrange to have a wireless outfit on my airship?
2065Can you come for a ride tomorrow?
2065Can you make out who they are, Dick?
2065Can you save him?
2065Can you save the others?
2065Could n''t you look around and get a second- hand one?
2065Dick, will you forgive me, and shake hands?
2065Did I say all that?
2065Did I win the race?
2065Did Vardon and Jack get here? 2065 Did n''t you hear, Uncle Ezra?"
2065Did they hit us?
2065Did you want to see me?
2065Do I?
2065Do n''t be mean?
2065Do n''t you call my studies at Kentfield something, Uncle Ezra?
2065Do n''t you fellows want to try your hand at steering?
2065Do n''t you s''pose I''ve got any friends but girls?
2065Do you fear something will go wrong?
2065Do you find anything wrong?
2065Do you know how long you have been, so far, Dick, on the trip?
2065Do you know what you are saying, Jack? 2065 Do you really think he is going to have a try for the government prize?"
2065Do you see that notice?
2065Do you think airships will ever carry light artillery, or drop bombs on an enemy?
2065Does he look like a collector?
2065Does that mean-- er-- more money?
2065Ezra, be you goin''up in that contraption?
2065Feel all right?
2065First name Grace, lives somewhere up in Central Park, West; eh, old chap?
2065Going to take her up, Dick?
2065Had we better descend?
2065Had we better go any higher?
2065Has anybody got a gun?
2065Has anything happened to him?
2065Have n''t you any soap aboard?
2065Have you any engagement for tonight?
2065Have you decided to let your son have an airship of his own?
2065Have you given up reporting?
2065Hello, what''s this?
2065Here, where you takin''that?
2065Hey, what do you fellers mean-- smashing down out of the clouds, bustin''up my pig pen, and scatterin''''em to the four winds?
2065How about it, Larry?
2065How are we coming on?
2065How are we going to get out?
2065How are you coming on?
2065How do you do?
2065How do you like it?
2065How does it feel to sail above the clouds?
2065How does the gyroscope stabilizer work?
2065How in the world did you get here? 2065 How is she coming, Dick?"
2065How long do you figure you will take for the trip?
2065How long?
2065How much space left, Dick?
2065How we going to get him up?
2065How you going to get at it to inspect it?
2065How you making it, Dick?
2065How, I''d like to know? 2065 I have some friends there, and--""I believe her name is Knox; is n''t it?"
2065I presume you will go with me when me make the first ascent; will you not?
2065I suppose you birdmen are used to accidents like this?
2065I was?
2065I will, hey? 2065 I wonder how some of our competitors are making out?
2065I wonder if anyone could have done that on purpose?
2065I wonder if he can stay here?
2065I wonder if he--"What?
2065I wonder if it was the fire Grit was anticipating all the while he acted so queer?
2065I wonder if we can fly back?
2065I wonder what has become of him?
2065I wonder what he wants of me?
2065I wonder what he wants?
2065I wonder what it''s all about? 2065 I wonder what will happen before we dance with them again?"
2065I wonder what''s the matter?
2065I wonder whatever''s got into him?
2065In trouble again?
2065Is he here?
2065Is he rich?
2065Is it another fire?
2065Is it possible? 2065 Is it possible?"
2065Is n''t there any place we could go to a dance?
2065Is n''t there some shed around here where we could leave it, so it would be safe?
2065Is she responding all right?
2065Is she working all right, Lieutenant Larson?
2065Is something going to blow up?
2065Is something wrong?
2065Is that so? 2065 Is the wireless working?"
2065Is there any of it there?
2065It does n''t look so-- does it?
2065Kentfield Military Academy?
2065Looks like it-- doesn''t it?
2065Morning?
2065No?
2065Not getting scared, are you?
2065Now the point is; What can we do?
2065Oh, I say?
2065Oh, cats, eh? 2065 Oh, do you do that?"
2065Oh, is that so? 2065 Oh, that''s the way of it?"
2065Oh, you will, eh?
2065Oh-- you mean him?
2065Or a missionary, looking for funds to buy pocket handkerchiefs for the heathen?
2065Or the Pacific?
2065Quick?
2065Ready with the wires?
2065Real news?
2065Rubber gloves?
2065Say, I wonder what''s come over Dick?
2065Say, ca n''t you drop us off?
2065Say, how big a machine are you going to have?
2065Say, how high are you going to take us?
2065Say, if she''s going to work this way what will happen when we start for San Francisco?
2065Say, is n''t this the limit? 2065 Say, it''s big; is n''t it?"
2065Say, what is this-- a swimming race?
2065Say, what''s the matter with you dudes, anyhow?
2065Say, who had the saw last?
2065See anything of any other craft?
2065Shall I?
2065So why ca n''t I contract with your cousin to make my airship for me? 2065 So you got here, after all, Dad?"
2065Something made to go wrong?
2065Something missing?
2065The girls? 2065 The question is, will you fellows take a chance with me in it?"
2065Then we really are n''t on the prize winning flight, yet?
2065Then you''re going to walk?
2065Think I want to go up and sit alongside of a girl with paws like these?
2065Want to take a chance?
2065Well, Dad, how are you?
2065Well, are we all here?
2065Well, what''s the matter now?
2065Well, where are we?
2065Well, you''re not on any regular news stunt just now; are you?
2065Well, young gentlemen, I suppose you have heard the news?
2065Well, your machine was tampered with; was n''t it, just before we sank into the river?
2065What about a hook?
2065What about leaving the airship all alone?
2065What about my hands?
2065What are you going to do with the money?
2065What are you going to do?
2065What contraptions? 2065 What d''ye mean, comin''down in my orchard, and bustin''up my best Baldwin tree?
2065What did he want?
2065What do you mean?
2065What do you reckon an airship ought to cost?
2065What do you want of gasolene?
2065What foolishness is this?
2065What happened?
2065What has happened?
2065What in the name of Gatling guns is it?
2065What in the world would you do with a fire escape on an airship?
2065What is it, old boy?
2065What is it? 2065 What is it?"
2065What is it?
2065What is that?
2065What is the gyroscope?
2065What is the matter with that dog?
2065What is?
2065What prize did you speak of?
2065What prize?
2065What sort of a landing- place is below us?
2065What type are you using?
2065What''d I say?
2065What''s doing?
2065What''s that for?
2065What''s that? 2065 What''s that?"
2065What''s the idea of that?
2065What''s the trouble?
2065What''s the trouble?
2065What''s the trouble?
2065What''s their game, anyhow?
2065What''s up now?
2065What''s up?
2065What-- what''s the matter, old boy?
2065When can we start on the race?
2065When do you plan to start?
2065Where are those rubber gloves?
2065Where are you going, Larry?
2065Where can you get it?
2065Where in the world did you get it?
2065Where is he?
2065Where were you boys going?
2065Where''s that fellow Larson?
2065Where''s your pa?
2065Where-- where am I?
2065Where?
2065Which way?
2065Who is Uncle Ezra Larabee?
2065Who is it?
2065Who is the magistrate before whom we shall have to appear?
2065Who is the pilot of this craft?
2065Who was he?
2065Who''s there?
2065Who, me? 2065 Who?"
2065Who?
2065Whose is it?
2065Why ca n''t we stay over a day or so in New York?
2065Why do n''t you blush, Dick?
2065Why do n''t you make a try for the prize?
2065Why do n''t you try it now?
2065Why not head for Chicago?
2065Why not try your boat over the water? 2065 Why not?"
2065Why not?
2065Why, what in the world is the matter?
2065Why?
2065Will she be safe?
2065Will that satisfy you?
2065Will you come?
2065Will you see him?
2065Will you show us how the steps go?
2065Will you?
2065Wo n''t you call it eight?
2065Yes, Larry Dexter-- you remember him?
2065You do n''t mean to tell me you have undertaken the important work of constructing an aeroplane so soon after coming from the military academy?
2065You just ca n''t keep out of the kitchen; can you?
2065You mean a wheel to twist?
2065You mean about the airship instruction we are to get here, sir?
2065You mean-- Larson?
2065You''re going to take Grit along; are n''t you?
2065You''re not crowding her though, are you? 2065 You''re not worrying, though, are you?"
2065And I reckon you''ll have to spend more for fixing her up; wo n''t you?"
2065And was that your craft?"
2065And-- and are you-- are you goin''to go up in one of them things-- them airships?"
2065Anything you fellows would like, especially?"
2065Are n''t you the reporter who worked up that stolen boy case?"
2065Are you holding her all right, Dick?"
2065Are you interested?"
2065Are you there, Nephew Richard?
2065As the old lady said of the train that came to a sudden halt because of a collision,''do you always land this way?''"
2065Burglars?"
2065But have you made your official entry for the prize yet?"
2065But shall we try to get this machine out of the shed?"
2065But what in the world is he up to, anyhow?
2065But what were those things like little ants, crawling over the campus?
2065But who''d give him such a contract, especially after this accident?
2065CHAPTER III DICK''S RESOLVE"What do you know about that?"
2065CHAPTER XI A SURPRISE"Toss over that monkey wrench; will you?"
2065CHAPTER XVI DICK IS WARNED"What''s the matter?"
2065CHAPTER XXIII AN IMPROMPTU RACE"How''s she running?"
2065CHAPTER XXIX THE RIVAL AIRSHIP"What did it?"
2065CHAPTER XXXI THE WRECK"What do they mean?"
2065Ca n''t you use that?"
2065Can Ezra have lost money on some of his investments?
2065Can you see anything of him?"
2065Could n''t he write?
2065Could they win under such adverse circumstances?
2065Did n''t that officer say something about a restaurant around here?"
2065Did you bring any tackle along, Dick?"
2065Do n''t you always do your share of the camp cooking when we go off on hikes and practice marches?"
2065Do yon think he would like to take the contract from me?"
2065Do you mean to say you''re goin''in for any such foolishness as that?"
2065Do you want to try to steer her?"
2065Grit barked so persistently that Dick called to Paul:"See what ails him; will you?
2065Had the motive power come in time, or would they land on the hill?
2065Hamilton?"
2065Have I got to do it all?"
2065Have they started work?"
2065He gave a sudden start, at some noise, and cried out:"What''s that?
2065How is she doing?"
2065How much do you want?"
2065How you making out, Dick?"
2065How''d you come to open that?"
2065I mean we can go faster; ca n''t we?"
2065I presume you expected us?"
2065I suppose it wo n''t do any good to say we''re sorry; will it?"
2065I wonder about where we are, anyhow?
2065I wonder if we''ll have a race at the end?"
2065I wonder what I''d better call her?
2065I wonder what it can be?"
2065If that gets afire we''ll want to escape; wo n''t we?
2065Is n''t that a good name for your craft, Dick?"
2065Is there a telephone around here?"
2065Larson hesitated a moment, and resumed:"Well, then it is too late; I suppose?
2065Now, how about you fellows coming on a cruise in the clouds with me?"
2065Say, Mr. Vardon, when do you expect our engine?"
2065Suppose we try to go up?"
2065Think I''m going to tramp on the hard sidewalks and wear out my shoe leather?"
2065Vardon?"
2065Was something wrong?
2065What d''ye mean?"
2065What do you mean?
2065What for?"
2065What is it, old boy?"
2065What is it?
2065What is your time?"
2065What you doing?"
2065What''s it all about, anyhow?
2065What''s that?"
2065What''s that?"
2065What''s this mean?"
2065When he came back to the starting point he asked:"Well, will you take a chance?"
2065When one,( in this case Larson) was announced by Aunt Samantha, Mr. Larabee asked:"Does he look like an agent?"
2065Where are the extinguishers?"
2065Where are the gloves?"
2065Which way are you steering?"
2065Who could help it?"
2065Who would tamper with my machine?"
2065Why are you so careful about it now?"
2065Why do n''t you try for that?"
2065Why not rest on the surface of the lake until morning?
2065Why not?"
2065Will they-- er-- cost money?"
2065Will you accept a position as instructor?"
2065Will you come?"
2065You did n''t dare bring your bulldog in here, did you, Nephew Richard?
2065You have enough oil and gasolene, have you not?"
2065You say Paul and Innis are coming on?"
2065You''ll have to order certain parts made up, wo n''t you?"
2065You''re sure he ai n''t a book peddler?"
2065interrupted Mr. Larabee,"this ai n''t no lottery scheme; is it?
53460A kidnapping, eh? 53460 A mistake?"
53460A mistake?
53460A newsboy?
53460A typewriter? 53460 About how large a yacht do you think I ought to get, dad?"
53460About? 53460 Ah-- er-- is it you, Nephew Richard?"
53460Ai n''t I told you this is n''t a regular kidnapping? 53460 Ai n''t the street big enough for you?
53460Am I going to have a yacht made to order?
53460An''would you-- that is, do you think you could find room for such a worn- out old sea dog as me on board? 53460 And how''s that?"
53460And there''s another thing-- what shall I make the signal of?
53460And they made you prisoners, did they?
53460And tie''em together with a fishline, I s''pose?
53460And what after that?
53460And what are your plans, Captain Hamilton?
53460And what sort of a voice was it?
53460And what''ll it be?
53460And when will that be?
53460And will we have to lie- to all that while?
53460And you say there is no news?
53460And you want me to locate them, and get their signatures?
53460And you''ve nothing to do on the entire trip but have fun, eh?
53460Any bad news?
53460Are n''t you going to look for your mother''s relatives?
53460Are we going to build a boat, like Robinson Crusoe did, out of a hollow tree?
53460Are you all right?
53460Are you searching for_ them_, Senor Hamilton?
53460Are you sure he went below?
53460As much as that?
53460Being marooned is n''t so bad, after all; eh Dick?
53460Boys-- were there boys aboard the_ Princess_?
53460But ca n''t we signal for a motorboat to take us off, and bring us back? 53460 But could n''t you erect the building on this land yourself, and finance it alone?"
53460But do you know you laid yourself liable to a severe penalty of the law, Ezra? 53460 But how about the_ Albatross_?
53460But how can we build a raft?
53460But how did my uncle happen to get in with them-- how did he get away down to Cuba?
53460But how did they know of my plans to buy a yacht?
53460But how did you ever get on our track, Dick? 53460 But if you do n''t find them in Santiago, what will you do?"
53460But there''s nothing to hinder us from going to hear the band; is there?
53460But we do n''t mind the walk, do we, Grit?
53460But what about the search you came here to make?
53460But what can we do about it?
53460But what do you want with me?
53460But what was their object?
53460But what''s it about, Ezra?
53460But where are they now?
53460But who does this yacht belong to?
53460But who were they, Dick?
53460But why did they kidnap him?
53460But why should they want to get me here?
53460But, hold on, where''s Tim?
53460Ca n''t one of you fellows brush it off with your bayonet?
53460Ca n''t we rescue the people?
53460Ca n''t you come along, dad?
53460Ca n''t you do anything to- day?
53460Ca n''t you hurry, sir?
53460Ca n''t you make it a little less?
53460Ca n''t you sleep? 53460 Can we go a little faster?"
53460Carried away by the tide?
53460Could you see their faces?
53460Cuba? 53460 Did it cost much?"
53460Did those pirates capture you, too, as well as my yacht, Uncle Ezra?
53460Did you get him?
53460Did you get him?
53460Did you hear some one calling for help?
53460Did you look in the pilot house?
53460Did you think those men might have stolen your yacht, Dick?
53460Did you try the forecastle?
53460Do n''t you s''pose we want to put on some style when we have visitors? 53460 Do n''t you use a typewriter?"
53460Do ship''s timbers groan like a man dyin'', sir, an''call for help, sir?
53460Do you expect us to cut down trees with our pocket- knives? 53460 Do you know him?"
53460Do you mean to camp out there again?
53460Do you mean to say you''re not Dick Hamilton, the millionaire?
53460Do you see it anywhere?
53460Do you think another plate of cakes will be enough?
53460Do you think there is any chance of catching the villains?
53460Do you think they meant to rob you, Dick?
53460Do you think you can catch up to her?
53460Do you think you''ll spend much time in Cuba?
53460Do you think your friend, Mr. Beeby, will meet you there, Captain Hamilton?
53460Do you want three plates?
53460Do you want us all to die of indigestion?
53460Do you want us to wait_ outside_?
53460Eh, captain?
53460Everything go off well at school?
53460Ezra,called his wife again,"are you thinkin''of the dollar an''nineteen cents you once lost?
53460For what port?
53460Friends? 53460 Gone?"
53460Got what?
53460Guy and Simon? 53460 Has Perk disgraced us by putting his belt on wrong side out?"
53460Has any one seen Grit?
53460Have n''t I told you it was because his dog attacked us?
53460Have n''t you anything for Grit and the puppy, Hans?
53460Have you any special orders, Captain Hamilton?
53460Have you got that miserable dog yet?
53460He could n''t be hiding on deck-- that is, maybe hurt, and have fallen under something; could he?
53460He vunt; hey?
53460Heard what?
53460Help who out?
53460How about it, Widdy?
53460How are you, Tim Muldoon?
53460How are you, Uncle Ezra?
53460How did it all happen, anyhow-- this fine yacht, the way you take it off, and all that?
53460How did it happen?
53460How did you come to go in there?
53460How do you make that out?
53460How does it smell?
53460How is that?
53460How soon can we sail?
53460I am concerned in it?
53460I know that,assented Dick,"but-- my uncle here-- trying to kidnap me?
53460I say, will you fellows come around to- night?
53460I suppose you got my letter, telling you about some distant relatives I need to locate?
53460I wonder if I can risk it?
53460I wonder if that could have been Uncle Ezra?
53460I wonder what sort of investigating it can be? 53460 I wonder what''s wrong at Dankville?
53460I wonder where dad''s quest will lead me?
53460I wonder where he came from, and how the dinghy got adrift?
53460I wonder why highwaymen wanted a rig? 53460 I''ll tell you all about it,"promised the young millionaire,"but first let me know whom you have locked up as prisoners?
53460I''m still here-- am I?
53460I-- said-- I''d-- come-- and-- I''m-- here--(puff) I''m--(puff) here--(puff) all right--(puff) am--(puff) I-- not--(puff), Dick?
53460In order to give them aid?
53460Is Senor Alantrez on board?
53460Is Widdy here?
53460Is it her?
53460Is it possibly you?
53460Is it serious?
53460Is it sinking?
53460Is it that the steamer has gone, but will return presently?
53460Is my father at home, Gibbs?
53460Is that all there is to it?
53460Is that savage dog gone?
53460Is the yacht really gone, Dick?
53460Is there any fresh water?
53460Is there-- if I might be so bold as to ask, sir,began Widdy, as he shall be called,"is there a chance of the yacht being put into commission, sir?"
53460Is this plum duff, such as you used to get, or not?
53460Is this the launch of the_ Princess_?
53460Is-- is she-- has she sung again?
53460It beats turning out at reveille, forcing yourself into a tight uniform, and getting ready for drill and chapel; does n''t it?
53460Jest as soon as----"As soon as the kidnappin''is done?
53460Just tell the steward to serve mine in my stateroom this morning, will you, old chap?
53460Kill? 53460 Let me see?"
53460Like chickens, eh? 53460 Like it?
53460Maybe your railroad trip upsot ye?
53460Miguel and Raphael Valdez?
53460Miss anything, Tim?
53460Mistake?
53460My Uncle Ezra here? 53460 My fault?"
53460My uncle? 53460 No?
53460Now about taking some fresh water along; what would you advise, Widdy?
53460Now, what''s the program, Mr. Larabee? 53460 Oh, why did I ever try this plan?"
53460Oh, why did n''t you get my nephew hid away when you had him in Hamilton Corners that night?
53460Pardon me, senor, but did I hear you aright-- the_ whole_ afternoon, did you say?
53460Pardon, but you are taking me to a yacht; yes?
53460Pleased? 53460 Pretty good cakes they have here; eh, Guy?"
53460Raw? 53460 Say, but this is going some; eh, fellows?"
53460See that man standing near the rail? 53460 See your best girl aboard her, Dicky, my lad?"
53460So you wo n''t agree to my plan, to save your son from being a spendthrift, eh?
53460Stone Island?
53460Take a picture of''em? 53460 Then she is an old boat?"
53460Then why did you want to stop here?
53460Then, ca n''t you advance us a little more money?
53460Then, if you ca n''t get any trace, how are you going to know in which direction to search?
53460Then, what is it?
53460Then, you could n''t tell whether or not they were the same men you met before in New York, and who got you on board their yacht?
53460Thought they''d fool us, did n''t they, Sam?
53460To- day, my dear Senor Hamilton? 53460 Was n''t it some one on deck, or did n''t you imagine it?"
53460Was that Dick Hamilton who just passed?
53460Was that you singin''?
53460Was this before or after we all had them on, and were on deck?
53460We also ate early,spoke Guy, with a grin at his companion;"did n''t we, Simon?"
53460We have n''t any tools to make a boat, but we can build a raft, and float away on that, and perhaps get in the track of some steamer; eh, Widdy?
53460Well, Dick, how are you?
53460Well, are you and Guy ready to go ashore?
53460Well, how did you make out with the lawyer?
53460Well, what do you think of that?
53460Well, what is it, Toots?
53460Well, what''s to be done?
53460Well, why did n''t you look further, see who it was, and help''em?
53460Well,remarked Dick, drawing a long breath, as though he had just taken part in a desperate race,"what''s this all about, Widdy?"
53460What about that, Dick? 53460 What are you going to christen her?"
53460What are you going to do this summer?
53460What are you going to do with your Uncle Ezra?
53460What did I tell you, senors?
53460What did I tell you?
53460What do you say to another helping before we tackle the ham and eggs?
53460What does he want?
53460What does it all mean?
53460What else would they have attacked me for? 53460 What have you been doing with yourself since last we met?
53460What is it?
53460What is it?
53460What of it? 53460 What will you call the new one?"
53460What''ll you do?
53460What''s he got?
53460What''s it all about? 53460 What''s plum duff?"
53460What''s the game?
53460What''s the matter, Ezra?
53460What''s the matter, Henry?
53460What''s the matter, Henry?
53460What''s the matter; too much salt in something?
53460What''s the matter? 53460 What''s the matter?"
53460What''s the matter?
53460What''s the matter?
53460What''s the matter?
53460What''s the matter?
53460What''s the matter?
53460What''s the matter?
53460What''s the use? 53460 What''s up?"
53460What''s wrong, Widdy?
53460What''s your hurry?
53460What? 53460 Whatever possessed you to do such a thing, Ezra?"
53460When?
53460Where are you going now, Tim?
53460Where away?
53460Where away?
53460Where is Mr. Blake? 53460 Where will you look for her?"
53460Where''s the rig?
53460Where?
53460Which way shall we go?
53460Which, the table or the coat?
53460Who are going?
53460Who are you, and where are you going?
53460Who are you?
53460Who are you?
53460Who has?
53460Who saw him last-- and where?
53460Who was taken?
53460Who''d ever think to see you here? 53460 Who''s Widdy?"
53460Who, me? 53460 Who, me?"
53460Why and wherefore was you a- doin''of it?
53460Why are you taking me away?
53460Why did I come to sea? 53460 Why did n''t you say something about that before, Pedro?"
53460Why did n''t you shoot it? 53460 Why do you think they turned about and ran?"
53460Why not?
53460Why not?
53460Why, Dick, is n''t that the vessel on which they attacked you?
53460Why, Ezra, what do you mean?
53460Why-- why, did n''t you want me to take a picture of''em?
53460Will Jimmie let you have the grub- fest?
53460Will you show us down, Mr.--er-- Mr.--?
53460Would n''t it be better to anchor, or run in to shore?
53460Would we? 53460 Would you like to get a boat, and take a cruise after those men who have your son?"
53460Yes-- but-- how-- am-- I-- going-- to-- get-- on-- board?
53460Yes-- why not?
53460Yes; why not? 53460 You do n''t mean to say that it''s a he- one, do you?"
53460You do n''t think they tried to kidnap you, do you?
53460You know_ me_, do n''t you, Dick?
53460You''re not going to attempt anything to- night, are you?
53460You''re rather free with the old man''s money, ai n''t you, Sam?
53460You-- captured-- my-- yacht?
53460You-- you wo n''t get arrested for it; will you, Ezra?
53460Your Uncle Ezra?
53460_ Ach himmel!_ Vy you do it dot way?
53460A steam yacht all for myself?"
53460Am I likely to get her?"
53460And where was his dog, I wonder, Sam?"
53460And you want us to help get Dick----""Will you be quiet?"
53460Anyhow, it wo n''t be much out of our way to call there; will it, Captain Barton?"
53460Are they a regular band of pirates?"
53460Are you crazy, Mortimer?
53460Are you sick?"
53460Are you the one?"
53460But if you''ve got a camera, why did n''t you say so before?
53460But is the yacht damaged?"
53460But what can be his object?
53460But whatever in the world possessed you to do it, Tim?
53460But why ask me?
53460But will the senors be pleased to ride farther with me?"
53460But will you do as I ask-- not let Richard waste this money for a yacht?"
53460CHAPTER XV TIM MULDOON DISAPPEARS"Well, Beeby, and how are you?"
53460Came pretty near not making it, though; did n''t I?
53460Come to- morrow----""Ca n''t you give me the letter now?"
53460Could you meet me on her?
53460Did those scoundrels treat you badly?"
53460Did you get any clew to who the men were?"
53460Did you notice any signs of pirates, or other desperate characters, on the island since you have been here?"
53460Do the machinery cry for help?
53460Do you really mean it?
53460Do you think that savage dog is out of the way?"
53460Do you think the crew would like some?"
53460Does it bother you?"
53460For the love of Davy Jones, have you any aboard?
53460Get a doctor, ca n''t you?"
53460Got much of a party aboard?"
53460Grit, you old sinner, do n''t you know any better?"
53460Hamilton?"
53460Has any one a chaw of tobacco?"
53460Has any one got a chaw of tobacco?"
53460Have n''t you any cheap cups-- any at half price?"
53460Have we any, Captain Barton?"
53460Have you arranged for your friends to accompany you?"
53460He made a jump for me, and----""Did he bite you?"
53460He wanted to kidnap me?
53460How about you?
53460How do you like the idea?"
53460How would you like to sail for Cuba?"
53460How''s everybody?
53460How''s the old iron business?
53460I fancy you have had enough of this place, Pedro?"
53460I knew you did n''t like him, and----""Like him?
53460I wonder if we can buy her?"
53460I wonder where I shall go?"
53460If Senor Hamilton is pleased to go there next week, or the week after----""Next week?"
53460Is he crazy?"
53460Is it a fly- cop; or has your license expired?"
53460Is it news from the scoundrels who carried him away?"
53460Is it to scuttle the ship, or shanghai somebody?
53460Is my boy found?
53460Is my yacht safe?"
53460Is n''t he Dick Hamilton?"
53460Is that coffee never coming?"
53460Is the paper business good?"
53460Is there a fire?"
53460Is there a secluded room here?"
53460It did sound like one crying; did n''t it?"
53460It''s you, my fine swab, is it?"
53460No Uncle Ezra, eh?
53460Oh, Uncle Ezra,"spoke Dick quickly, as he thought of something,"how''s Aunt Samanthy?"
53460Oh, why did n''t you hold on to him, when you had him that night in the rainstorm at Hamilton Corners?"
53460Or do you want to chase folks up on the sidewalk?"
53460Pedro Alantrez,"he went on, turning quickly to the young Cuban,"did those kidnappers, who landed you here, go away?"
53460Perhaps to- morrow-- or the next day----""Why not to- day?"
53460Rattling away, I suppose?"
53460Say, sport,"and Tim leaned forward to the chauffeur,"are you wise to de-- I mean_ the_ fact that we''re being chased?"
53460Shall I come?"
53460Shall we follow that yacht up the bay or stay back?
53460So you''re back from the military school, Dick?"
53460Some careless of you, wa''n''t it?"
53460Some ocean liner, which might cut them in two, and send them swirling to the bottom?
53460Suppose you run up there?
53460The man with the little bunch of white whiskers on his chin?"
53460They took you for me?"
53460To- day?"
53460Were you in there all the while?"
53460What are you goin''to do?"
53460What do I care about clothes?
53460What do you think I''m paying you for-- to pose as a living picture?"
53460What does he want, Hans?"
53460What does this mean?
53460What for?"
53460What is it?
53460What thieving trick are you up to now?
53460What vessel did he have?"
53460What would he be doing away off here?"
53460What would loom up in front of them?
53460What''s up?"
53460When can I have it, and where can I go?"
53460Where am I to berth; in the engine room?"
53460Where are they, and how many did you kill?"
53460Where shall we spend the night?"
53460Where''s Captain Barton?
53460Where''s Grit?"
53460Where''s the rig?"
53460Why can not a boat be had to follow the scoundrels?"
53460Why did n''t you get him into my hands secretly, as I thought you would?"
53460Why did n''t you look further?"
53460Why did n''t you?"
53460Why do you ask?"
53460Why should those fellows disappear so suddenly?
53460Why, in the name of the sacred cat, did n''t you shoot some for dinner?"
53460Why?"
53460Widdy, have the launch gotten ready; will you?"
53460Will you do the work, or not?
53460Would you?"
53460Yes-- no?"
53460You ai n''t goin''to keep a secret from me; be ye?"
53460You ai n''t in trouble; be ye?
53460You do n''t mean to say that it''s the one you used to have-- the same one that could n''t draw the load of iron when I once met you?"
53460You had your breakfast; ai n''t you?"
53460You mean----?"
53460You remember Uncle Ezra, do n''t you?"
53460You''ll get it all back, wo n''t you?"
53460You''re not going until morning, are you?"
53460You''ve given us trouble enough, and we wo n''t stand for any more nonsense; will we, Sam?"
53460asked Dick,"and what did it say?"
53460exclaimed Beeby, as he just avoided being tossed out of his berth,"rather rough, is n''t it, Dick?"
53460exclaimed Dick,"is there anything on board that you have n''t snapshotted?
53460exclaimed his wife at length, for she was being kept awake,"ca n''t you doze off, Ezra?"
53460inquired Dick of the old sailor;"are any vessels likely to pass this way?"
53460what''s this?
53406A visit from Uncle Ezra; eh? 53406 All ready?"
53406And Uncle Ezra did?
53406And Uncle Ezra sold Mr. Wardell this worthless stock?
53406And he is practically assured of his money if he does make that protest, Dad?
53406And he was playing all that time to get possession of those papers?
53406And how could he figure out that you''d give him a lift?
53406And so he has a chance to get back his fortune?
53406And so you put water in their gasoline tank?
53406And so you''re responsible for my losing all this money, be you, Nephew Richard?
53406And the glacier?
53406And we might be regarded as''hostile interests''; is that it?
53406And what will Uncle Ezra say when he finds it out?
53406And will you do that for me?
53406And you agreed to do this?
53406And you can advise me; ca n''t you?
53406Any news from home, Dick?
53406Are we going to put up at a hotel for lunch?
53406Are we going to run along, hit or miss, or have we some definite plan?
53406Are we walking too fast for you?
53406Are you all ready?
53406Are you all right? 53406 Are you all right?"
53406Are you going right into''Frisco?
53406Are you going to tell him so?
53406Are you going to try the bridge?
53406Are you lost? 53406 Are you ready to start?"
53406Are you sure that''s the machine?
53406Are you sure you''ll be all right?
53406Are-- are we all here?
53406Boys, are you with me?
53406Boys, will you start up the phonograph again for my friends?
53406But are they ahead or behind us?
53406But can you arrange with your lawyer to furnish the necessary papers?
53406But how can you, with our car stalled?
53406But how did he know you were coming along the road where he disabled his car?
53406But how did you guess it? 53406 But how do you catch the autoists once they are past the second mile stone, supposing they have broken the pole?"
53406But how do you suppose the map was taken last night?
53406But if he does get the papers so long before the time when you have to turn them over to the courts, Dick, ca n''t you get other copies?
53406But if there is n''t any love lost between you, why is he coming here, Dick? 53406 But is it?"
53406But is there a hotel in Hosford?
53406But say, Dick, how did you get onto that fellow''s curves?
53406But supposing the car did n''t stop?
53406But what about the windlass?
53406But what in the world were they after?
53406But what is it your father is going to give you?
53406But what will become of him, Uncle Ezra, if he has n''t any money?
53406But when you knew his game, and suspected what he was up to, were n''t you afraid to let him go to your car, and you remain at the spring?
53406But why an auto?
53406But why did not the man who ordered it take it after it was completed?
53406But why does he make all this fuss about it? 53406 But why four horses?
53406Ca n''t sleep; eh?
53406Ca n''t you put on the reverse?
53406Can it be, by any chance, Mr. Cameron,the young millionaire asked,"that your case has any connection with the Citrous Junction Railway?"
53406Can we do anything else for you, Mr.--er--?
53406Can you attach them to the back of the house as well as on the front?
53406Can you get any more speed up, Dick?
53406Cost something?
53406Could n''t you change your route, and fool your Uncle Ezra, Dick?
53406Couldn''t-- couldn''t they be followed on a bicycle?
53406Did he say what his business was around here?
53406Did n''t Bill Hockey, at the top of the hill, warn you about this bridge?
53406Did n''t he like it?
53406Did not what?
53406Did some one owe you money?
53406Did they get anything?
53406Did they get much?
53406Did they?
53406Did you call for help?
53406Did you get a new road map?
53406Did you locate him?
53406Did you mark that road map envelope''legal papers''?
53406Do n''t you think that''s risky?
53406Do you live around here?
53406Do you make those up for stock?
53406Do you mean it?
53406Do you really think they''re shooting at us?
53406Do you really think those men were after the papers, Dick?
53406Do you recognize that name?
53406Do you suppose your uncle took advantage of him?
53406Do you think I''m crazy?
53406Do you think he''ll testify for Mr. Wardell if you show him the facts?
53406Do you think it''s safe to keep the law papers in such a place?
53406Do you think they had orders to prevent you from going away?
53406Do you think they''re safe there?
53406Do you want to jump?
53406Especially in this kind of weather, and vacation so near at hand; eh, Paul?
53406Going camping?
53406Grit, have you no manners?
53406Have a car made to order?
53406Have you an auto here, too?
53406Have you got any ragtime?
53406Have you got that savage cur still?
53406Have you looked for your papers, Dick?
53406Have you seen anything of a bulldog?
53406Have you seen him?
53406Have you the doors locked?
53406He could? 53406 He''ll rather have it in for you; wo n''t he, Dick?"
53406Horses? 53406 How are you going to fasten the tackle to the car?"
53406How are you?
53406How could you tell that?
53406How do you figure it out?
53406How do you mean?
53406How do you stop the speeding autos when they get to the second mile post?
53406How do you suppose they worked it?
53406How is that?
53406How is your father?
53406How is your magneto?
53406How long will it take?
53406How much?
53406How so?
53406How was that?
53406How''s that?
53406How?
53406How?
53406How?
53406I guess you know my two chums; do n''t you?
53406I know, but he did n''t know it was worthless?
53406I say, old boy, you''re not going to take that egg; are you?
53406I suppose so"And if this Wardell did n''t know enough to protect himself, that was n''t my fault; was it?
53406I wonder how they overpowered him? 53406 I wonder if I could n''t see him and make some deal with him?"
53406I wonder what he''s up to?
53406I wonder what sort of a car I ought to take?
53406I wonder----?
53406I would n''t have gone alone for a farm; would we, Grit?
53406I''d like to know what you do call it?
53406I''m afraid,answered the young millionaire,"that he''ll have a fit; wo n''t he, Grit?"
53406If the papers are filed in time I can save my fortune?
53406In plain sight?
53406In this desert?
53406Innis, you''re nearest to it, turn on the stove, will you, and set the coffee to boiling? 53406 Is Grit hurt?"
53406Is he going to take you to Europe this vacation?
53406Is it a good world?
53406Is n''t he fine?
53406Is n''t he going to crank up?
53406Is she all right, Dick?
53406Is that another of your jokes?
53406Is that some one ahead of us, or behind us?
53406Is there anything we can do?
53406Is this the man-- this Wardell?
53406Is-- is any one under the car?
53406It does seem rather foolish; does n''t it?
53406It will be a good joke on your Uncle Ezra, to get Mr. Wardell''s fortune away from him; wo n''t it?
53406Joking; eh? 53406 Let''s see, where is that part of his note?"
53406No?
53406No?
53406Not even with all the trouble Uncle Ezra made?
53406Now what''s the program?
53406Now, where do you want to go?
53406Of course we will,said Dick, quickly;"but ca n''t we give you a lift on your way?
53406Oh, something for me, Toots?
53406Oh, then you also came in an auto?
53406Oh, then you''re going to cook over an open fire?
53406Oh, what does it matter?
53406Oh, what is the present generation coming to?
53406Oh, what''s the use of playing it out?
53406Oh, you''ve got to take some chances in this world, old man; eh, Grit?
53406Ruined him, you mean, Uncle Ezra?
53406Sam, and Bill, do n''t you want to get busy?
53406Saved your life?
53406Say, ca n''t you fellows get your folks on the long distance telephone, and see when you can go?
53406Say, is this the road to Centreville?
53406Say, what about him?
53406Say, you want a traveling hotel; do n''t you?
53406Shall I start the electric fan, Dick?
53406Sittin''up rather late; are n''t you, Mortimer?
53406So, Wardell does n''t know; eh?
53406Somebody dead you know?
53406That pole across the road would n''t be hard to break; would it?
53406The millionaire?
53406Then what''s the trouble?
53406Then why ca n''t they be sent out there, and held until it is time to present them to the court?
53406Then will you turn them down?
53406Then you cleaned him out, Uncle Ezra?
53406Then you have friends with you?
53406There ai n''t nothin''slow about you boys; be there?
53406There were three of''em, all right,said Paul,"and I guess they''re a little more rough- looking than they were at first; eh, boys?"
53406Think you can drive it?
53406Tricks like Uncle Ezra''s?
53406Trust myself in that? 53406 Wa''al, he brought it on himself; did n''t he?
53406Want another auto, Dick?
53406Want any help?
53406Want to come for a walk?
53406Warn me?
53406Was he dissatisfied with it?
53406Well, I suppose your nephew is well off?
53406Well, Mortimer, I did n''t do nothin''unlawful; did I? 53406 Well, it was pretty good; was n''t it?"
53406Well, shall we go ashore?
53406Well, what can we do?
53406Well, what do you know about that?
53406Well, what do you know about that?
53406Well, what''s the answer?
53406Well, what''s to be done next? 53406 Well, when do we start?"
53406Were they some of Uncle Ezra''s gang?
53406Were you, indeed? 53406 What about him?"
53406What about those papers, Dick?
53406What are you going to do, Dick?
53406What are you going to do, old man?
53406What can you do?
53406What did they do to you, old fellow?
53406What did you do to him?
53406What do you know about them, Dick?
53406What do you mean?
53406What do you mean?
53406What do you think of him?
53406What does that mean?
53406What happened, anyhow? 53406 What in the world had the broken steering knuckle to do with it?"
53406What is it?
53406What is it?
53406What is that?
53406What is your programme?
53406What kind have you?
53406What kind of a car is he going to give you, Dick?
53406What luck?
53406What luck?
53406What makes you so sure?
53406What was it?
53406What was it?
53406What would you say if I told you there was a chance to get back your fortune?
53406What''d you want to come down hill so fast for?
53406What''s our programme, then?
53406What''s that you said?
53406What''s that?
53406What''s that?
53406What''s that?
53406What''s that?
53406What''s that?
53406What''s the game for to- morrow?
53406What''s the matter here?
53406What''s the matter, old man? 53406 What''s the matter?"
53406What''s the matter?
53406What''s the matter?
53406What''s the matter?
53406What''s the programme for to- day?
53406What''s the route to- day?
53406What''s this? 53406 What''s your game?"
53406What-- what did you say your name was?
53406What-- what''s the matter?
53406What? 53406 What?
53406What?
53406What?
53406When do we start?
53406When do you expect to start?
53406Where are the papers now, Dick?
53406Where are we going to stay to- night?
53406Where are you bound for?
53406Where are you fellows from?
53406Where do you expect to end your days?
53406Where does he live?
53406Where to?
53406Which man was that? 53406 Which way did the men go?"
53406Which way?
53406Who is Heinie? 53406 Who is Heinie?"
53406Who is kicking my legs?
53406Who is this Wardell, anyhow?
53406Who said get up?
53406Who, Wardell?
53406Who-- Dick or Lem?
53406Who?
53406Who?
53406Why ca n''t Dick do the same thing?
53406Why is he himself not here to give testimony?
53406Why not, I''d like to know?
53406Why not?
53406Why should n''t I?
53406Why so?
53406Why was he?
53406Why, Paul?
53406Why, where is Grit?
53406Why?
53406Will a duck swim?
53406Will you have a fried egg sandwich?
53406Wo n''t let him go out?
53406Would they telegraph in to the lawyers?
53406Would you mind letting me see him?
53406Would you mind telling me,he said,"just what your testimony consists of?"
53406Wreck your nephew''s auto?
53406Yes, I know I can, but what good will it do me? 53406 You are looking for clues, then?"
53406You are students at the Kentfield Academy then?
53406You are?
53406You can? 53406 You consented to see a man cheated out of his fortune?"
53406You expected him to skip out; did you?
53406You mean an automobile, Dick? 53406 You mean they may follow us?"
53406You''nail''''em; is that it?
53406You''ve got ropes and pulleys; have n''t you?
53406You-- you''ll get that paper; wo n''t you?
53406A burly man sauntered out of a shed and demanded:"Whatcher want here?"
53406All ready, boys?"
53406An''dis is private property-- see?
53406And then, as Mr. Larabee left Dick''s chum asked:"Well, what''s next on the program, old man?
53406Any more coffee left?"
53406Are n''t we ever to get away from my Uncle Ezra?"
53406Are the roads pretty good now?"
53406Are you going far?"
53406Are you going to eat so near supper time?"
53406Are you going to tell him it was your uncle who got all his money away from him?"
53406As he went toward the handsome room, intending to join them, he heard Mr. Hamilton remark:"So you got possession of all his securities, Ezra?"
53406As they drove into the side entrance of Dick''s house a voice called from the library:"What''s this, Mortimer?
53406Be you cookin''in there?"
53406Black?"
53406Buffalo?"
53406But does he know of this time limit?"
53406But how can your uncle think it is right to send men to search your auto for papers?"
53406But how do you decide that a change has been made?"
53406But supposing the place catches fire?"
53406But what are you going to do now?"
53406But what good is that going to do?
53406But what had that to do with an intention to take his own life?"
53406But where are you staying?"
53406But you were too much for''em; eh, Grit?"
53406But, Dick, what is it you want to do?"
53406But, as long as he pays our price, we''ll do his work; eh?"
53406But, look here, Mr. Hamilton, what good will the papers do me when I ca n''t go to San Francisco to file them?
53406By the way, he is some relation to you; is n''t he?
53406CHAPTER IX DICK MAKES PLANS"Well, Dick, so you think you have the very car you want?"
53406CHAPTER V THE BIG CAR"What kind of a car have you in mind, Dick?"
53406CHAPTER XII UNCLE EZRA PLOTS"What''s our time- table, Dick?"
53406CHAPTER XIII THE HAND IN THE DARK"Say, this is a little bit of all right; is n''t it?"
53406CHAPTER XX DOWN HILL"You''d never suspect it was there; would you?"
53406CHAPTER XXI MAROONED"Ca n''t you hold her, Dick?"
53406CHAPTER XXIII OFF AGAIN"How''s that post now?"
53406CHAPTER XXIV A NIGHT ENCOUNTER"Did you think there was anything queer about that man, Dick?"
53406CHAPTER XXV INTO THE LONELINESS"Have you the time?"
53406CHAPTER XXVI BAD NEWS"Say it sure is lonesome; is n''t it?"
53406CHAPTER XXXII THE RACE"Something gone wrong?"
53406Ca n''t he be sent farther off?"
53406Ca n''t you take a hand, and change matters?"
53406Can I help at anything?"
53406Can you arrange to file them?"
53406Can you give us some ragtime?"
53406Can you manage to escape?"
53406Can you wait for me there?"
53406Could I get one around here, do you imagine?"
53406Dick, do you know what I think?"
53406Did you ever see such bad luck?"
53406Did you notice what he did after we started away?"
53406Do n''t you remember, Paul, hearing him tell about how a certain party did n''t know enough to hold on to his wealth, and all that?"
53406Do n''t you think so yourself?"
53406Do you believe in fate?"
53406Do you know the route they are going to take?"
53406Do you think we''ll have any more adventures like those we''ve just passed through?"
53406Do you think you can make your car a base of supplies, Dick, and live in it without going to hotels, as you plan?"
53406Do you want him to come here?"
53406Even if we got to''Frisco before the end of the week, which we could easily do, by abandoning the car and taking a train, what good would it do?
53406Ever meet him?"
53406For, as Dick said,"What was the use of coming out on a tour if you kept in touch with civilization all the while?"
53406Going to broil the steak on your over- heated engine, I suppose, and make coffee with the hot water from your radiator?
53406Hamilton?"
53406Has some one sent you a bill?"
53406Have they harmed you?"
53406Have you looked at the carbureter?"
53406Have you the papers safe?"
53406He looked from Dick to Paul and Innis, who were silently laughing, and then he inquired:"Which one of you is his keeper?"
53406He passed close to Dick, and found a chance to whisper:"Where are the papers?"
53406How about it?"
53406How are you going to pick out a car among so many, Dick?"
53406How can I get away and reach''Frisco?"
53406How does that strike you?"
53406How?"
53406Hungry or thirsty, perhaps?"
53406I ca n''t act, and yet----""Is there anything to prevent me, Dad?"
53406I had a right to swing my own market the way I liked; did n''t I?"
53406I know your father slightly-- Mortimer Hamilton?"
53406I suppose we could borrow a shovel?"
53406I thought two would be enough?"
53406I wonder if it would be wrong to act on the information I overheard by accident?
53406I wonder if it''s for sale, boys?"
53406I wonder what he wanted of Uncle Ezra?"
53406I wonder who he is?"
53406In your pocket?"
53406Innis, how much moving force do we require?"
53406Is n''t he that sour- faced man who hates your bulldog, Grit, and who thinks football is a waste of time?"
53406Is n''t that great news?
53406Is that dog in here?"
53406Is that it?"
53406Is the break a bad one?"
53406It looks like a hold- off game, spiriting the witness away in that fashion, and yet what can we do?
53406It''s a good joke on Wardell; ai n''t it?"
53406Larabee?"
53406Larabee?"
53406May I ask how you figure in it?"
53406Maybe chase half way to San Francisco on an old wheel?
53406Oh, you''re the fellows with the big auto; are n''t you?"
53406See anything of Paul?"
53406Shall I bring up a scuttle of coal, or a pail of water?"
53406So this is your car?"
53406That''s a rich one; eh, Grit?"
53406The funny part of it is, Mortimer, that even now, if Wardell only knowed enough, he could get back his fortune?"
53406Then, as the last echoes died away, Dick Hamilton jumped to his feet and called out:"Who is there?"
53406Think you can pull off anything?"
53406Those papers?"
53406Wardell?"
53406Was it a joke?"
53406We ai n''t goin''to do nothin''unlawful; are we?"
53406Well, are you ready?"
53406Well, shall we go back?"
53406Were they three rough- looking fellows?"
53406What are you going to do, Dick?"
53406What did he want to stop that way for?"
53406What did they do to you?"
53406What do you mean?"
53406What do you say to a trip to California with me in the new auto I''m going to get?
53406What do you want a shovel for?"
53406What does this mean?"
53406What else did you expect?
53406What happened?"
53406What is it now?"
53406What is it?"
53406What make is that?"
53406What would he say if he were here?
53406What''s the matter, old fellow?"
53406What''s your programme, Paul?"
53406When there''s a fairly good hotel in the village?"
53406Where did this come from?"
53406Where do you want to go?"
53406Where would we be likely to get a rope and pulleys?"
53406Where''s your horses?"
53406Where?
53406Who are you that you make the night melodious with your music and song?"
53406Who else would have an object in preventing me from trying to save Mr. Wardell''s fortune?"
53406Why does n''t he wait until the time comes, and then file in court a legal paper that would offset the one you have for Mr. Wardell, Dick?"
53406Why, you''ve got a regular sleepin''an''dinin''car here; ai n''t you?"
53406Why?"
53406Will he be all right with you?"
53406Will you come?"
53406Will you stay to dinner, and meet my father?
53406Wo n''t you come up and meet my new friends?"
53406Would you like to look it over more closely?"
53406You do n''t mean that; do you?"
53406You do n''t mean to say you let your son get an expensive auto like that?"
53406You do n''t mean to tell me that Mortimer Hamilton is going to waste money on another trip to Europe?"
53406You do n''t want to make yourself criminally liable; do you?"
53406You have n''t anything on; have you?"
53406You remember that story of Edgar Allan Poe''s--''The Purloined Letter''; do n''t you?"
53406You say the papers have to be filed on a certain date?"
53406are you going to the graduation ball?"
40831A compact? 40831 A promise-- of what?"
40831A woman here?
40831After to- night it is best that we should remain strangers-- you understand?
40831After your vow to me?
40831Am I really losing my senses?
40831Among my friends is there a man named Doyle?
40831And Hickman, a fair man, of middle age, with a very ugly face?
40831And Mrs Anson and her charge? 40831 And at Monte Carlo, I suppose?"
40831And does your head still pain you very much?
40831And have n''t you seen her ladyship at all, sir?
40831And he was actually murdered in my house?
40831And how came you to be so well acquainted with its aspect?
40831And how did you find out where I was hidden, and my assumed name?
40831And how do you know, pray?
40831And how long have I lived in this place?
40831And if I accept them will the mystery of to- night ever be explained?
40831And if I promise to remain mute?
40831And if he does know the truth-- even, indeed, if he dared to inform the police-- what direct evidence can he give, pray?
40831And in education?
40831And may I not act as your escort on your walk to- day?
40831And may I not even know your identity?
40831And may I not know something, however little, of the cause of this oppression upon you?
40831And now,she said at last--"now that you have satisfied yourself of my personal appearance, are you prepared to accept the conditions?"
40831And regarding the silence which you seek to impose upon me? 40831 And saw nothing more of her?"
40831And so you have no intention of telling any one where I''ve gone?
40831And so you prefer to cross the Park rather than ride by omnibus?
40831And supposing you broke your promise and went to Scotland Yard?
40831And that is mine-- absolutely mine?
40831And that woman Grainger? 40831 And that woman,"I demanded, breathlessly--"is she actually my wife?"
40831And the Carnival?
40831And the loan for the Prince?
40831And the man whom rumour designated as her husband? 40831 And these two men, Roesch and Gechkuloff, where are they?"
40831And this is College Place-- is it?
40831And what are those terms?
40831And what are you, pray?
40831And what were you doing with it?
40831And what would it profit you, pray?
40831And what year is this?
40831And what''s that?
40831And when she had gone?
40831And where did I dine?
40831And where did this extraordinary marriage between us take place, pray?
40831And where does His Highness think that I am going to get half a million of money from at a moment''s notice, pray?
40831And who chose it-- approved of the designs, and all that sort of thing?
40831And whose guest am I, pray?
40831And why have you come back to me now?
40831And you are alone?
40831And you are now carrying on business as a financier in the City of London?
40831And you believe that you will be safe in England?
40831And you came to London?
40831And you have been sent here by whom?
40831And you have no desire to see me again?
40831And you hold back from me the chance to escape from this slow but inevitable fate unless I conform to your wishes?
40831And you refuse your surname?
40831And you remember that evening when I dined with you at The Boltons?
40831And you say that security will be given?
40831And you say that you were actually present at the church, and saw me married?
40831And you showed them to her?
40831And you tell me I am wealthy?
40831And you tell me that I''m a millionaire?
40831And you were once stricken by blindness?
40831And you''ve been to your music, I suppose?
40831And your name?
40831And, in other words, you defy me to discover the truth?
40831And-- and these gentlemen?
40831Anson?
40831Are you a medical man?
40831Are you absolutely certain?
40831Are you better after your sleep?
40831Are you content to wait until the certificate can be obtained from Somerset House?
40831Are you not aware of her real rank and station?
40831Are you unwell?
40831Are you, then, an ambassadress of the Principality of Bulgaria?
40831Are you, then, unaware that Anson is the name adopted by Her Highness to preserve her_ incognita_?
40831Are you, too, seeking the truth?
40831But before doing so will you not sign one or two cheques?
40831But ca n''t you see?
40831But did n''t you think her story a very lame one, Parker?
40831But did not this request strike you as extraordinary?
40831But had n''t you better go to your room and rest? 40831 But how came I here?"
40831But how can one be devoted to a person one has neither seen nor known?
40831But how could she get in? 40831 But may I not make an examination of your eyes?
40831But sha n''t I see you before then?
40831But surely you have an interest in preserving your own life?
40831But surely, you, who were so kind to me after my accident in the street, will you desert me now?
40831But tell me,I said quickly,"how many persons were there present in that house beside yourself?"
40831But the events of last night?
40831But to love her is not to go on the downward path, surely?
40831But what is the nature of your business with Her Highness?
40831But what object could any one have in coming to you and telling a falsehood in that manner?
40831But what reason had the men in making those elaborate preparations for the assassination of the Prince?
40831But where am I?
40831But who gave orders for this furniture?
40831But who told you where I was staying?
40831But why did you disclose your identity?
40831But why?
40831But you are acquainted with her?
40831But you are not a Londoner, are you?
40831But you say that, although they had intention of assassinating him, they did not actually do so?
40831But you''ll write and tell me when you are free?
40831Ca n''t you answer my question?
40831Certain? 40831 Dangerous to the man''s heart-- eh?"
40831Did he make any remark to you?
40831Did you not meet me then?
40831Did you not promise that, in return for your life when you were blind and helpless, you would make no effort to learn the true facts? 40831 Did you notice it?"
40831Do I look like a madman?
40831Do n''t I always act honestly, then?
40831Do you actually mean that you are unsafe-- here, in England?
40831Do you know Nice well?
40831Do you mean to tell me solemnly that you can perform a miracle?--that you can restore my sight to me?
40831Do you remember the derision heaped upon that time- saving arrangement of our ancestors, the elastic- side boot?
40831Do you think she was a common thief, sir?
40831Doyle? 40831 Edna Grainger?"
40831Financial aid?
40831For evil?
40831For how long, then, have you been my secretary?
40831For that, how can I sufficiently thank you?
40831For your own ends, of course?
40831Fordyce?
40831Forget? 40831 Found it?
40831Fraser?
40831From Bulgaria?
40831From her appearance did my companion lead you to believe that she was a lady?
40831Furnished?
40831God?
40831Grainger?
40831Grainger?
40831Has she never been engaged?
40831Have I been to those chambers during the time-- the five years you have been in my service?
40831Have I ever visited a house in The Boltons, at Kensington?
40831Have I often visited Heaton-- my own place?
40831Have you not agreed to remain silent? 40831 Have you raised it?"
40831Have you really taken leave of your senses? 40831 Have you utterly failed?"
40831Having thus deceived me, how can you hope that I can be free with you?
40831Her Highness?
40831Hickman? 40831 Hickman?"
40831How can I sufficiently repay you?
40831How did it happen? 40831 How did you accomplish it?"
40831How did you get it?
40831How did you know that?
40831How do you think it possible that I can raise such a loan without its intentions being known?
40831How long have you been blind?
40831How long was she here?
40831How many times a week do you go to the Academy?
40831How?
40831I ask you first whether you are not Wilford Heaton, of Heaton Manor, near Tewkesbury?
40831I have discovered where it took place-- I have since re- entered that room?
40831I have loved you from the first moment that we met at the colonel''s, long ago-- you remember that night?
40831I may be-- what then?
40831I presume you are acquainted with Miss Mabel Anson?
40831I regret,she answered,"that slight deception has been necessary to preserve the secret?"
40831I suppose you''d know her again if you saw her?
40831I suppose you''ll tell me next that you were my secretary in my bachelor days?
40831I suppose you''ve sent for the doctor to bandage my head?
40831I take it that the money is required for the Prince''s private purse?
40831I wonder how much Heaton really does know?
40831If strange to you, madam, how much more strange to me? 40831 If such were the case, ours would be a very extraordinary friendship, would n''t it?"
40831If you are a friend of Mrs Anson''s, would it not be better if you wrote to her and addressed the letter here? 40831 If you know, then perhaps you''ll kindly give me some explanation?"
40831In London? 40831 In London?"
40831In other words, then, you are not altogether pleased with my companionship?
40831In what direction?
40831In what manner?
40831In what manner?
40831Insane?
40831Into the country?
40831Is Mabel married?
40831Is he back?
40831Is it likely that I shall take notice of anything you say when you believe that I''m not responsible for my actions?
40831Is it to you that I am indebted for those concessions?
40831Is that intended as a threat?
40831Is the past, then, so full of bitterness?
40831Is this place Denbury Court?
40831Is your mistress at home?
40831It is extraordinary?
40831July?
40831Lady? 40831 Let you go headlong to the devil, eh?"
40831Like what?
40831Matter? 40831 May I not know the name of my good Samaritan?"
40831May I not know your name?
40831May I not touch your face, so as to give me an impression of your personal appearance?
40831Meet you?
40831Mrs Anson?
40831Mrs Heaton has sent you on some commission, I suppose?
40831My friends? 40831 My name?"
40831Ninety- six?
40831Not in this room?
40831Not much good, is it, if you ca n''t tell us where the affair took place?
40831Now that you think our fortunes have changed you contemplate deserting us, eh?
40831Now, tell me,I said;"do you know who I am?"
40831Now, you will accept this as a little present, and return to Denbury to- morrow after a fruitless errand-- utterly fruitless, you understand?
40831Of the year, I mean?
40831Oh, what have I done? 40831 Or Hickman?"
40831She was good- looking-- eh?
40831She wishes me to submit to the experiment?
40831Stolen, or strayed away of its own accord-- eh?
40831Surely you do not desire to commence your life again?
40831Surely you have some idea of where the affair took place?
40831Surely you recognise me?
40831Surely, Parker, you''ve taken leave of your senses?
40831Suspect me? 40831 Tell me,"I cried excitedly, turning to the man standing behind me,"what''s the day of the month to- day?"
40831Tell me,I demanded in my helplessness, of the mysterious woman at my side,"what has happened?"
40831Tell me,I said, addressing Gedge again,"has my married life been a happy one?"
40831The library?
40831The secret of the crime?
40831The_ Bath Hotel_ is therefore a good customer?
40831Then I am not in a hospital?
40831Then I am to take it that my companionship on this walk has not been distasteful to you?
40831Then I sha n''t see you at all to- morrow?
40831Then according to your account I must have spent yesterday here-- actually in this house?
40831Then how do you account for these memorandum forms?
40831Then it is not yet morning?
40831Then it is you yourself who will be my anonymous correspondent?
40831Then she was a widow?
40831Then who was?
40831Then you acknowledge that what I told you was the truth-- that I did not lie to you when I told you that your case was not beyond recovery?
40831Then you are English?
40831Then you believe that you can actually cure me?
40831Then you do not believe that this really belonged to your friend?
40831Then you imply that if I were to lay information at Scotland Yard I should be in peril of my life?
40831Then you impute that all I''ve said is untrue, and is due merely to the fact that I''m a trifle demented, eh?
40831Then you knew them abroad?
40831Then you mean to imply that these financial dealings of mine-- of which, by the way, I have no knowledge whatsoever-- are not always quite straight?
40831Then you pity me, eh?
40831Then your name is assumed?
40831Then, I suppose, I''m well known in the city, eh?
40831Then, as I understand, it is with some further financial object that you have sought me this evening?
40831There was nothing noticeable about whereby I might recognise her again? 40831 They did n''t rob you?"
40831They like to come down here for a breath of country air, I suppose, eh?
40831To an admirer?
40831To find?
40831To whom?
40831Two people?
40831Unsafe? 40831 Was he an intimate friend?"
40831Was he really a police- agent?
40831Well off?
40831Well, and what do you wish to tell me this evening?
40831Well, perhaps you''ll kindly explain what it means?
40831Well, the lady is your wife, so why worry further about it?
40831Well, what are those used for?
40831Well, what in the name of Fortune has it to do with me if he''s struck it a thousand dollars to the handful?
40831Well, why do you think I''m insane?
40831Well,I inquired at last;"and your reason for seeing me this evening?"
40831Well- dressed?
40831Well?
40831Well?
40831Well?
40831Well?
40831Well?
40831Wells Street, in London?
40831Were you lucky?
40831What are you doing?
40831What business?
40831What cheques?
40831What day of the month?
40831What do you mean?
40831What do you mean?
40831What do you mean?
40831What do you mean?
40831What do you think they say?
40831What do you want?
40831What does he know?
40831What friends?
40831What have I done, Wilford, that you should treat me thus?
40831What is his address? 40831 What is it?"
40831What kind of lady was she-- old or young?
40831What knife?
40831What motive can you possibly have for thus endeavouring to ally yourself with me?
40831What place is this?
40831What would you do?
40831What would you expect to find?
40831What''s that you have there?
40831What''s the good o''running after me with a yarn like this if you ca n''t take me to the spot? 40831 What''s your name?"
40831What?
40831What?
40831What?
40831What?
40831What?
40831What?
40831When do you propose this operation?
40831Whence did you obtain this?
40831Where am I?
40831Where are you staying?
40831Where did your friend lose his?
40831Where does she live?
40831Where is he now?
40831Where is it?
40831Where?
40831Where?
40831Where?
40831Who are the victims?
40831Who injured your head like that?
40831Who met me, then?
40831Who told you so?
40831Who was it?
40831Who were the men with whom she had the minor love- affairs-- any one I know?
40831Whom did you see there?
40831Whom do you think informed the Ministry of Police?
40831Why associate yourself further with that man?
40831Why do you longer hesitate?
40831Why do you speak so vaguely?
40831Why have I an office in the City?
40831Why need we discuss it?
40831Why not?
40831Why should I be unhappy?
40831Why, I wonder, has he sought you here?
40831Why, sir?
40831Why, what''s this?
40831Why? 40831 Why?"
40831Why?
40831Why?
40831Will it be painful?
40831Will you kindly come forward to the window?
40831Will you kindly inform me where I am?
40831Will you not tell me your name?
40831With what?
40831Would you like to repay me for what you so very generously term my kindness?
40831You are bound to secrecy regarding her?
40831You assure me, upon your honour as a woman, that no harm shall befall me if I carry out the instructions in those mysterious letters?
40831You do n''t know his name?
40831You have actually re- discovered the house-- even though you were stone blind?
40831You have no further statement to make?
40831You joined this train at Exeter, then?
40831You know the Riviera well, I suppose?
40831You know the people at the trunk- maker''s, of course?
40831You mean that she has a jealous lover?
40831You prefer your present affliction?
40831You preferred a quiet, free life in London to that at your father''s Court?
40831You remember nothing? 40831 You saw the woman''s face?"
40831You say that her clothes were very dirty?
40831You surely do n''t mean, sir, that you wish me to show you over your own house?
40831You were present?
40831You''d know her again if you saw her?
40831You-- you ca n''t really stand there and coolly tell me that you do n''t know me?
40831Young or old?
40831Your home life is, I presume, happy enough?
40831Your interests were mutual in the preservation of your secret, therefore you resolved to adjust your differences and live together, eh?
40831A few minutes later, in hot haste, I overtook the man of heavy tread, and addressing him, said--"Tell me, please, are you a constable?"
40831Again, had she not spoken of its owner in the past tense?
40831Am I master here, or not?"
40831Am I to understand that you distinctly deny having made me your wife?"
40831Among them are there any persons named Anson?"
40831And what of her, you ask?
40831And where are you going?"
40831Anson?
40831Are they at a safe distance?"
40831Are they not in your handwriting?"
40831Are you a Londoner?"
40831Are you absolutely certain of the date?"
40831Are you certain that you''re not deceiving me?"
40831Are you certain you are not confounding me with some one else-- some one resembling me in personal appearance?"
40831But as you can''t-- well, what are we to do, sonny?"
40831But could such a thing be?
40831But do n''t you think that it is, greater part of it, imagination?"
40831But do n''t you think that the man who expressed horror at the first crime fell the victim of the second?"
40831But how could such a thing have taken place without my knowledge?
40831But surely you should, for your own sake, attend to the suggestions of your medical adviser?"
40831But what?"
40831But you''ve hurt your head, sir, have n''t you?"
40831Ca n''t you see?"
40831Can you imagine my feelings?
40831Can you tell me of any one who is intimate with them?"
40831Could it be the same individual whose cool, sympathetic hand had only a quarter of an hour before soothed my brow?
40831Could this strange female visitor have entered the place with a false key; or was she a mere pilferer whom I had disturbed in her search for plunder?
40831Did he never come and see you afterwards?"
40831Did it ever rain in those old days long ago?
40831Did she say where she lived, or give any card?"
40831Did she, I wondered, speak the truth?
40831Did they now intend to silence me for ever?
40831Did you believe me guilty of murder?"
40831Did you really send nobody, sir?"
40831Do n''t you consider her extremely handsome?"
40831Do you agree?"
40831Do you believe in any system at roulette?"
40831Do you deny that?"
40831Do you know nothing of the lady named Edna?"
40831Do you mean Mr Richard Doyle, the war correspondent?"
40831Do you remember it?"
40831Do you think that if I gave you a ten- pound note you could forget having met me to- night?
40831Do you think that you could forget having seen me at all?"
40831First, what possible connecting link could there be between her natural movements and the letter from that unknown hand?
40831For what reason?"
40831HOW MANY YESTERDAYS?
40831Had I been asleep like Rip Van Winkle in the legend?
40831Had I not already had ocular proof that a cure was being effected?
40831Had Mabel''s presence there any connexion with the mysterious order which I had obeyed?
40831Had he secretly watched us in our walks along the leafy byways of Kensington Gardens, and detected that I loved her?
40831Had she not also regarded me with evident suspicion?
40831Had she not, by her hesitation, admitted her own guilt?
40831Had this fact any connexion with the mysterious tragedy that had been enacted at The Boltons?
40831Has mother asked you to dine on Saturday?"
40831Have I many friends?"
40831Have you any idea of her personal appearance?"
40831Have you anything to add?
40831Have you no confidence in her desire to assist you?"
40831Have you not, as recompense, received back your sight, and become enriched beyond your wildest dreams?
40831Have you the key of the box?"
40831How did it occur?"
40831How do you account for that?
40831How was I to account for that?
40831I am fully aware of all that transpired at The Boltons, of--""At The Boltons?"
40831I knew that Mabel attended at the Royal Academy of Music, and what was more natural than that she should cross the Park on her way home?
40831I looked back upon the house-- a grand old home it was, one that any man might have been proud of, yet of what use was it to me?
40831I suppose you noticed that serrated line of mountains over which the eternal switchback runs?
40831If I promise, what safeguard have I for my own interests?"
40831If her acquaintance were so extremely undesirable, why did he invite her and her mother to his table?
40831If so, however, why had she left the_ Bath Hotel_ and endeavoured to conceal her identity under another name?
40831In whose house, I wondered, was I a guest?
40831Is it actually true what your butler has said of you-- that on the day you left Denbury you behaved like a madman?"
40831Is it not so?"
40831Is that so?"
40831Is there anything I can do?
40831Matter?"
40831May I not explain my adventures to my friend, in order to account for the blood upon my clothes and the injury to my head?"
40831Might I, myself, not fall victim in a similar manner if I refused to obey these strange mandates of an unknown hand?
40831My dear sir?
40831My guide drew forward a chair, and I seated myself, saying--"I believe you are the inspector on duty here?"
40831Next instant, however, she recovered herself, and with marvellous tact repeated--"Anson?
40831Now, have you any idea of the identity of that man?"
40831Of what nature?"
40831Or should I allow it to still rot and decay until my will became proved, and it passed into the hands of my heirs and assigns?
40831Or should I go out and inform the first constable I met?
40831Perhaps, having identified her present, she suspected me of foul play?
40831Quickly I removed it and examined it closely, exclaiming--"Do they wrap up needles in your cigars?
40831She alone knew the truth, therefore why should I not carefully watch her movements, and endeavour to discover her intentions?
40831She was young, I knew, but was she beautiful?
40831Should I inform the police?
40831Should I sell it?
40831Slade?
40831Strange, is it not?"
40831Tell me plainly, have I ever swindled anybody?"
40831Tell me, now-- what''s your name?"
40831The daughter of an Emperor?"
40831The door opened, and an elderly man- servant, with grey whiskers, appeared in the entry asking--"Did you ring, sir?"
40831The guilty one is there?"
40831The instant the latter saw me he rushed forward, crying, in a voice of distress--"Oh, my dear sir, whatever has happened?"
40831The length of the corridor surprised me, and I humorously remarked--"You''re not going to put me in the cells, I hope?"
40831The ludicrousness of the situation was to me entirely apparent, yet what could I do to avert it?
40831Then she added,"Now tell me, are you prepared to make a compact with me?"
40831Then, after a pause, I added,"And you say that these people are friends of mine?
40831There was the sound of heavy tramping over bare boards, and suddenly a rather gruff voice inquired--"Well, four- six- eight?
40831This recognition was startling, for was I not flying to London to escape my friends?
40831To whom, I wondered, were those letters addressed?
40831Was I dreaming?
40831Was I not believed by all to be insane?
40831Was I, too, to fall a victim?
40831Was he aware of our little exchanges of confidences?
40831Was it any wonder that I became filled with apprehensions, or that I sat there petrified as one turned to stone?
40831Was it any wonder, even though she might have been betrayed into a momentary tergiversation, that I bowed down and worshipped her?
40831Was it because that she herself was the actual assassin?
40831Was it near enough, I wondered, for me to walk there, and was there a station?
40831Was it the cry of Edna herself?
40831Was she beautiful?
40831Was she only acting the broken- hearted wife, or was that emotion real?
40831Was that same cool, sympathetic palm that had twice soothed my brow the hand of a murderess?
40831Was the intruder in the white veil none other than the mysterious Edna herself?
40831Was the present order for good or for evil?
40831Were there two victims, or only one?
40831What could I do, blind as I was?
40831What could I reply?
40831What could this mean?
40831What does it matter to me?"
40831What has happened?"
40831What is her true rank?"
40831What is it?"
40831What is it?"
40831What is it?"
40831What lady?"
40831What more natural, indeed, than she should have married?
40831What national events had, I wondered, happened in that time?
40831What of Roesch, Blumhardt, and Schaefer?"
40831What of her?"
40831What secrets of my lost life, I wondered, might not those carefully preserved letters and documents contain?
40831What was my best course?
40831What was she?
40831What would Dick, dear old Dick, say on his return when he found me cured?
40831What''s the matter?"
40831What''s the nature of the affair?"
40831What''s this?"
40831What''s up?"
40831What, I wondered, could he know of them to their detriment?
40831What, I wondered, could it be?
40831What, I wondered, had been my actions in those six years of unconsciousness?
40831Whatever has happened?"
40831Where do you want to go?"
40831Where is he?"
40831Where is it?"
40831Where was she?
40831Where''s the house?"
40831Where?"
40831Who are they?"
40831Who was Edna?
40831Who was he?"
40831Who was the young man who had fallen victim?
40831Who''s he?"
40831Who, I wondered, was the writer of that letter?
40831Whom do you mean?"
40831Why did n''t you call me at once?"
40831Why had he uttered that warning ere I had been acquainted with her a few hours?
40831Why, I wondered, had he enticed me to his rooms in order to make that extraordinary attempt upon my life?
40831Why?"
40831Wilford Heaton is not my real name, for why should I publish it to the world?
40831Will you kindly fetch them for me?"
40831Will you kindly tell me your name and address?"
40831Will you permit me to say one word without taking offence at it?"
40831Would you like to take it?"
40831Yet had I not actually seen the silhouette of Slade, and the streaks of sunlight beyond?
40831You have, I presume, received a letter signed` Avel''?"
40831You probably know them as specialists?"
40831You received it, I suppose?"
40831You surely remember it, do n''t you?
40831You understand?"
40831You will remember the man you met on that night?"
40831You''ll be back in three months at most, wo n''t you?"
40831You''re pondering over Mabel''s good looks, I suppose?"
40831You, who have sight to read these lines, can you imagine what it is to be suddenly struck blind?
40831inquired Gedge, taking some from the table,"and for these letters?
40831poor Wilford?"
40831she gasped in alarm,"The secret is out?"
55961A letter? 55961 A sovereign from Joe Brill?"
55961About the hundred pounds?
55961About what time was that?
55961Ai n''t he there quite comfortable?
55961Alan, are you mad?
55961Alan,said Sophy, much relieved,"how is it they did not know at Heathton Station that you were here?"
55961All very well,said Slack the schoolmaster;"but if he took away Mr. Marlow''s body, how did he put Dr. Warrender''s in its place?
55961And Mrs. Warrender-- shall I tell Blair about her?
55961And Warrender, what about his death?
55961And bases his lie upon some gossip of my having been a medical student, I suppose?
55961And did I murder Warrender, too?
55961And had you not done me harm enough, wretched man, without hunting me down?
55961And he went to Brighton?
55961And how did it come about?
55961And how did you come to lend him money?
55961And is she coming back?
55961And made yourself scarce?
55961And the Quiet Gentleman?
55961And the murder of Dr. Warrender? 55961 And the murder, Alan?"
55961And the police?
55961And what about Beauchamp?
55961And what can the law do to me?
55961And what has Jarks to do with this preposterous story?
55961And what were you doing out of bed at that hour?
55961And when do criminals do other than foolish things?
55961And where did he get them? 55961 And who murdered him?"
55961And who says so? 55961 And will that girl stand by and see her father''s memory disgraced?"
55961And will you escape me, do you think?
55961And you found nothing wrong?
55961And you, Alan?
55961And you-- what will you do?
55961And-- and-- what does she say?
55961Answer my question first: Are you rich?
55961Are you certain that the Quiet Gentleman killed Warrender?
55961Are you in training for a ballet- dancer?
55961Are you not going to make any more search for the body, Alan?
55961Are you rich?
55961Are you so sure he is dead?
55961Are you so sure he is dead?
55961Are you speaking of my father?
55961Are you sure you did not know of it last night?
55961At what?
55961Beauchamp was innocent of the murder, then?
55961Bless me, why should she? 55961 Brown?
55961But I arsk again, sir, is he good pay?
55961But how did his body get into the vault?
55961But how do you account for the income left to Herbert Beauchamp?
55961But if I tell my story to the world?
55961But if Joe declares that Lestrange is Sophy''s father?
55961But if Lestrange goes to the police?
55961But if this story should really be true?
55961But suppose I fail to find the body, Sophy?
55961But tell me, how was it that the manager of the Occidental Bank reported you dead?
55961But the murder, Beauchamp?
55961But the names?
55961But the same Christian name, Mr. Phelps? 55961 But was that altogether his fault, Beauchamp?
55961But what about me?
55961But why on earth did n''t she telegraph to you?
55961But will he return?
55961But, father, what will you do?--where will you live?
55961By the way,said Thorold,"is Mr. Marlow coming back here?"
55961By whom-- Warrender?
55961Ca n''t you understand?
55961Can I see them?
55961Can I take them?
55961Can the doctor have helped Brown to do it?
55961Can you do that without a warrant?
55961Captain Lestrange?
55961Cicero Gramp? 55961 Cicero Gramp?"
55961Cicero ai n''t wanted, is he?
55961Crank? 55961 Did Brown send for him?"
55961Did I not know him as I know myself? 55961 Did Joe know the Quiet Gentleman?"
55961Did Marlow ever mention Jamaica?
55961Did Warrender recognize him?
55961Did he leave any papers?
55961Did he recognize you?
55961Did he show it to Miss Sophy?
55961Did he? 55961 Did n''t I see him dead in his coffin?"
55961Did n''t you know? 55961 Did the way Achille treated Zelia give Beauchamp any right to murder him?"
55961Did you expect, then, that there would be some foul play?
55961Did you find him? 55961 Did you know the Quiet Gentleman, Joe?"
55961Did you mention it to any one?
55961Did you observe this before, sir?
55961Did you see the police?
55961Do I think it, sir? 55961 Do n''t you know me, Alan?"
55961Do n''t you know, sir?
55961Do you believe this man''s tale for one moment? 55961 Do you believe this murder was committed on the sacred soil of the churchyard, in God''s own acre, Alan?
55961Do you come from him?
55961Do you intend to accuse me of my husband''s murder?
55961Do you know a tramp named Cicero Gramp?
55961Do you know that Mr. Marlow is dead?
55961Do you know that my father is dead?
55961Do you know the will? 55961 Do you know what was in the letter?"
55961Do you mean my real father?
55961Do you mean that he is alive?
55961Do you mean to infer that Beauchamp was wild?
55961Do you think I am a Judas, to kiss that innocent girl if I knew myself to be her father''s murderer? 55961 Do you think he is guilty?
55961Do you think that Barkham''s letter caused Mr. Marlow''s death?
55961Do you think that Gramp can point out the guilty person?
55961Do you think this man Gramp has anything to do with the murder, and with the removing of poor father''s body?
55961Do you think this story is true?
55961Do you think, if my darling had lived, I should now be a wretched old maid? 55961 Does Marlow know who killed him?"
55961Does any one know?
55961Does he receive any letters?
55961Does she know that I am here? 55961 Employ you?
55961From you, Alan?
55961God bless me-- that is, God forgive me, Alan, are you mad too?
55961Good- evening, Mr. Thorold,he said, with a wary glance;"to what am I indebted for this visit?"
55961Guilty conscience, Alan? 55961 Had he a loud voice, Simmonds?"
55961Had he seen this Mr. Beauchamp, to whom the money was to be paid?
55961Had my father any enemies that you know of, Joe?
55961Have I your permission to sit down?
55961Have some refreshment, then?
55961Have you any idea who carried off the body, Joe?
55961Have you found out the truth?
55961Have you the key of the Marlow vault in your possession?
55961He hinted that you were in love with her, I suppose?
55961He said so?
55961Her jewels?
55961Hold your tongue, and tell me how much longer do you intend to disgrace me here?
55961How about getting away, Marlow?
55961How are you going to live?
55961How can I tell you, if I am to hold my tongue?
55961How can that be? 55961 How can you be sure?"
55961How can you enjoy cutting up people? 55961 How can you prove that?"
55961How could an old man helpless through gout in the feet carry off a dead body? 55961 How could he have known that you were coming?"
55961How do you know Dr. Warrender was out?
55961How do you know my name?
55961How do you know that, miss?
55961How do you know that?
55961How do you know what my errand is?
55961How long ago was this?
55961How long was Mr. Thorold with you?
55961How much do you want?
55961How much?
55961How the devil did it get there from the hut?
55961How went the business?
55961I dare say not,returned Sophy doggedly;"but if the man had nothing to do with it, why should he disappear?
55961I suppose the news of the murder had not reached England?
55961I thought you did not fear them?
55961I wonder if they met and went away together?
55961I-- I-- stole the body?
55961If it is not, why should that man have written? 55961 If so, why should Brown have stolen Thorold''s key?"
55961If you are so poor,put in Mrs. Warrender,"where did you get money to buy that writing- paper?
55961If you let him? 55961 In God''s name, what does this roguery mean?"
55961In what way?
55961Inspector Blair-- will that do?
55961Is he at home?
55961Is he lost too?
55961Is it Mr. Gramp you want, m''dimber- cove?
55961Is n''t it dreadful?
55961Is this what human nature is made of? 55961 Jamaica?
55961Joe Brill?
55961Joe, do you mean to say your late master is not Sophy''s father?
55961London? 55961 May I sit down?
55961May I sit down? 55961 Mean?
55961Miss Sophy''ll marry Mr. Thorold, wo n''t she? 55961 Mr. Thorold has gone to Dixon''s Rents, sir?"
55961Murdered your cousin?
55961My behavior?
55961My boy,he said pompously,"who is the Quiet Gentleman?
55961My dear lad, where would they go to?
55961My husband, you wretch!--have you killed him?
55961Not enough to gain you two thousand pounds?
55961Not from the effects of your blow?
55961Not in Jamaica?
55961Oh dear, what is all this?
55961Oh, Alan, my boy, must you?
55961Oh, he sez that, does he, the lubber? 55961 Oh, is he?"
55961Oh, must I?
55961Oh, that is what you think he is after?
55961Oh, you know that?
55961Oh,she said ironically,"then I am not your daughter?"
55961On what evidence?
55961On what grounds do you base this charge?
55961On what grounds?
55961On your word of honor as a gentleman?
55961Perhaps he helped to violate the secrets of the tomb?
55961Reveal the secrets of the dead? 55961 Said he knew my father?"
55961Saw who?
55961Secretly-- why? 55961 Secrets?"
55961See what?
55961Shall I have good luck in this place?
55961Shall you give up the case?
55961Sleep?
55961So you are Cicero Gramp?
55961So you know the truth, then?
55961Sophy, is he to go free, or shall the law take its course?
55961Sophy,said Alan suddenly,"had your father any enemies?"
55961Stole it?
55961Supposing he wo n''t give it?
55961Surely that describes the man we saw reciting?
55961Talking about skeletons, sir,said the footman when Mr. Gramp''s jaws were fully occupied,"what about the master''s?"
55961Tall, yellow beard, bald head?
55961Tell me, Gramp, is this all you know of these crimes?
55961That is her name, is it, Inspector Blair? 55961 The Quiet Gentleman,"said Cicero, bent upon acquiring further information--"tall, yellow- bearded, with a high forehead and a bald head?"
55961The Quiet Gentleman?
55961The Quiet Gentleman?
55961The hut-- what hut?
55961The reward?
55961The sexton?
55961Then I understand, Alan, that you think Marlow is really dead?
55961Then our idea that Lestrange was the Quiet Gentleman is false?
55961Then the murder of-- of Warrender?
55961Then this man is not Sophy''s father?
55961Then was this Mr. Beauchamp really my father or a relative?
55961Then who killed Achille?
55961Then why come here? 55961 Then you admit your guilt?"
55961Then you are on your way to see this man?
55961Then you assert that Marlow was none other than Herbert Beauchamp?
55961Then you ca n''t help us in any way, Joe?
55961Then you think that Mr. Marlow was called Beauchamp in Jamaica?
55961Then you would not object to making some more?
55961Then, am I that man''s daughter?
55961Then, why did he not tell me?
55961To a rich lady or to a poor one?
55961To be caught by Lestrange? 55961 To see what price you could get?"
55961To the Quiet Gentleman?
55961To the seaside? 55961 Told me what?"
55961Upon my soul, this is too much? 55961 Very good; and at Kingston?"
55961Was Brown ill?
55961Was Brown present at the funeral?
55961Was Jean present?
55961Was Lestrange the Quiet Gentleman?
55961Was he the short man Cicero Gramp saw with Warrender?
55961Was it, Clara Maria? 55961 Was n''t the undertaker present?"
55961Was there a crowd round the vault door when it was closed?
55961Was your lodger a Frenchman?
55961Well, Joe, where have you been?
55961Well, Mrs. Marry,said Alan kindly,"what is it?"
55961Well, even granting that such is the case, why should Brown have stolen my key? 55961 Well, what does it matter?"
55961Well,snapped that amiable beast,"what are you waitin''for?"
55961Well?
55961What I want to know, sir, is, where is the swab?
55961What about him?
55961What about his estate?
55961What about the man in Bournemouth?
55961What can he do?
55961What can you do now?
55961What conditions?
55961What confession? 55961 What did he come here for?"
55961What did he give you?
55961What did he know about him?
55961What do you mean by behaving like this? 55961 What do you mean by that?"
55961What do you mean, my dear friend?
55961What do you mean?
55961What do you mean?
55961What do you think of it, sir?
55961What do you think of that, sir?
55961What do you wish to see me about, sir? 55961 What does she mean, sir?"
55961What explanation did he make?
55961What for?
55961What good will that do? 55961 What happened then?"
55961What has that got to do with you?
55961What have you to say for yourself, Lestrange?
55961What if he should be the Quiet Gentleman-- Brown?
55961What is all this about?
55961What is the matter, Blair? 55961 What key?
55961What of that?
55961What proof can you give me of its truth?
55961What sort of business?
55961What the devil''s all this?
55961What took you to Brighton of all places?
55961What troubled you, Alan? 55961 What two people?"
55961What two?
55961What was Mr. Marlow, sir?
55961What''s that?
55961What''s to do now, Blair?
55961What?
55961When am I to get it?
55961When you thrust yourself into the kitchen at the Moat House, I presume?
55961Where did he come from?
55961Where did you get the money?
55961Where did you spend it?
55961Where has he gone?
55961Where is he?
55961Where, may I ask?
55961Where-- what to do?
55961Where?
55961Who are you, in Heaven''s name?
55961Who delivered it?
55961Who did it?
55961Who did?
55961Who is he, Thomas?
55961Who is he?
55961Who is the other man?
55961Who is this fat man he speaks of?
55961Who is this gentleman, Sophy?
55961Who the devil are you?
55961Who the devil are you?
55961Who was he afore he came to take the Moat House five year ago? 55961 Who was he?"
55961Who was she?
55961Who was the patient?
55961Who were they?
55961Who wrote the letter?
55961Whose corpse?
55961Whose orders?
55961Why are you certain?
55961Why couple the two crimes?
55961Why did I say that?
55961Why did Joe keep me and Miss Marlow in the dark?
55961Why did n''t you tell me this, Jarks?
55961Why did you not give information to the police?
55961Why did you not tell Mr. Thorold about this?
55961Why did you not want to consult the police?
55961Why did you?
55961Why do n''t you make certain whether he saw the Quiet Gentleman?
55961Why do you believe so?
55961Why do you call me''monsieur''?
55961Why do you make this strange assertion?
55961Why should he have encumbered himself with the child?
55961Why should he have run away?
55961Why should it be broken into, Alan? 55961 Why should we go there?"
55961Why there of all places?
55961Why, Alan? 55961 Why-- why?
55961Why? 55961 Why?"
55961Will he be with Barkham?
55961Without your fifty pounds?
55961Work with you?
55961Wot d''ye mean, Billy?
55961Wot d''ye want with him?
55961Wot is it?
55961Would he have done that?
55961Yes, I am convinced he is guilty, else why did he steal the key of the vault? 55961 Yes, yes; but who killed Achille?"
55961You are Achille Lestrange?
55961You are French, are you not?
55961You are afraid of the police?
55961You are alive, father?
55961You can not prove this ridiculous charge?
55961You could n''t give me a bed for the night?
55961You did not see him?
55961You do n''t believe me?
55961You do n''t think he was the short man with Dr. Warrender on that night, Alan?
55961You do n''t want me to bring Sophy here?
55961You followed?
55961You have found out something about it?
55961You know that?
55961You let him escape, Mr. Beauchamp-- and when you knew that he killed Achille Lestrange?
55961You mean that Mr. Thorold stole the body for scientific purposes?
55961You mean the theft of the body?
55961You saw no signs of that tramp in the churchyard?
55961You wo n''t work with me?
55961You''ll arrest him?
55961You-- you here, after all?
55961Your proofs?
55961--Cicero did not move a muscle--"she has told you that I can give you information about the body of her husband?"
55961A glass of port?
55961Alan interposed:"Was that the West Indian letter, Joe?"
55961Alan?"
55961All the money goes to her, does n''t it?"
55961Am I the man to violate a grave-- to drag the remains of a man I respected and honored to the light of day?
55961An''he, as the Squire of Heathton,''as a family vault, ai n''t he?
55961And Blair----"Does Blair know of this accusation?"
55961And Joe-- what does Joe know about this-- and my employer?
55961And get locked up on suspicion of murder?
55961And have the whole story in the papers?
55961And how could he have known that it was in my desk?"
55961And how could he without the key of the vault?"
55961And might I suggest,"he added, a trifle testily,"that I am usually addressed as Inspector Blair?"
55961And then, as he checked his horse:"Is the gentleman all right?
55961And what did he do with Marlow''s body?"
55961And what on earth could they want with the body?
55961And where did Joe get the key?
55961And who may you be, sir?"
55961And who was Marlow?"
55961And why mine?
55961And you have been at Southampton all this time?"
55961Any one connected with these mysteries which so perplex us?"
55961Are you sure it is n''t Marie Lestrange?"
55961Are you sure?"
55961Beg pardon, sir, but I suppose you ai n''t found out who killed the doctor?"
55961But Cicero----""Well, and how can he prove I was there?"
55961But about Mrs. Warrender-- you say she has disappeared?"
55961But even if he proves his case, you wo n''t go with him?"
55961But he said nothing, and merely turned to Mr. Phelps with a question:"Who screwed down the coffin?"
55961But her father?
55961But her remark called forth a question from Blair, who had been making a close examination of the room:"How do you know he is dead?"
55961But how did it get there?"
55961But may I ask on what grounds you demand money?"
55961But may I ask, Mr. Thorold, how you know about the shark?"
55961But what could he possibly want the body for?"
55961But what object could he have had in stealing the body?"
55961But what was this mysterious gentleman like?
55961But would you mind giving me something to eat and to drink?
55961But, Alan, why did you bring me here?"
55961By the way, how did he kill Dr. Warrender, and why?"
55961By the way, who are you?"
55961By the way, who was it killed Achille, Blair?
55961Ca n''t you go to- day?"
55961Ca n''t you see, Alan, that Sophy must be married to you under her true name-- Marie Lestrange?"
55961Can I do what I like with it?"
55961Can it be wondered that the jury were puzzled?
55961Can not this matter be adjusted, so that Mr. Thorold may escape the reward of his iniquitous proceedings?"
55961Can you be ready?"
55961Can you blame me?"
55961Can you deny it?"
55961Can you deny the resemblance?
55961Can you describe his looks?"
55961Can you take me to him?"
55961Can your father have feigned death to avoid him?"
55961Come, Sophy, have you no welcome for me?
55961Did he not steal the key of the vault from my desk?
55961Did n''t I tell you the man was a blackmailing scoundrel?
55961Did you know him, sir?"
55961Did you see him?"
55961Did you see him?"
55961Did you tell her?"
55961Do you believe it, Alan?"
55961Do you believe now in his guilt?"
55961Do you expect me to believe you, to rush into your arms without proof?"
55961Do you hear that he says my husband stole Mr. Marlow''s body?"
55961Do you know if the door of the vault has been broken open?"
55961Do you know of that also?"
55961Do you know who he was, Joe?"
55961Do you mean Captain Lestrange?"
55961Do you remember that he gave Cicero a sovereign to leave the Moat House?"
55961Do you think I am sorry for what happened?
55961Do you want to make money too?"
55961Does he intend to blackmail you also, and did you bring your jewels to satisfy his demands?"
55961Does the fact of my having been here corroborate this cock- and- bull story?
55961For what reason does he say that I did it?"
55961Gone where?"
55961Gramp, what do you mean by rushing into the room?"
55961Had Beauchamp been overheard by Mrs. Marry?
55961Had his disguise been penetrated?
55961Had she brought some one to witness the discovery?
55961Has the man who murdered her husband been discovered?"
55961Have you a confession?"
55961Have you forgotten that it was he who stole the key of the vault from my desk?"
55961Have you the jewels with you?"
55961He is in, I suppose?"
55961He lived thirty years with your father, did n''t he?
55961He was very quiet, ate and drank, read books----""What kind of books?"
55961Hope of what, for goodness''sake, Vicky?
55961How can I be happy knowing poor father is n''t at rest?"
55961How can we find out the truth?"
55961How could he have died so suddenly, Alan?"
55961How dare he bring forward such a terrible-- such a dastardly accusation?
55961How did I find Beauchamp again?
55961How did he fulfil his trust?
55961How did he know?"
55961How did this man come to know the name?
55961How did you find out?"
55961How did you manage?"
55961How do you know I got a letter last night?"
55961How much do you require to hold your tongue?"
55961How was it he left a confession behind him?"
55961How was it that the page- boy swore Joe Brill was never out of the room on that night?"
55961I know he, too, has vanished; but what else?"
55961I said so, did n''t I, Mr. Phelps?
55961I suppose Lestrange bribed him?"
55961I suppose it is best she should go?"
55961I suppose you are not staying in town?"
55961I wonder if Marlow went in for trading there?"
55961I wonder if t''other chap was the Quiet Gentleman?
55961If any one----""Mr. Brown went out at nine o''clock?"
55961If he had been, why should his body have been carried off?"
55961If not, how did it come there?
55961If so, had he seen the murder committed and the body taken into the vault?
55961In which way?"
55961Inspector?"
55961Inspector?"
55961Is Cicero generally-- er-- wanted?"
55961Is there-- is there money in it?"
55961Is this the greeting of flesh and blood?"
55961It had an ivory handle, on which were carved two letters,"A. T.""You found this in the hut?"
55961Joe told you about that, did he?"
55961Joe, you say that this man is Jean Lestrange?"
55961Lestrange is at the Good Samaritan?"
55961Marlow?"
55961Marlow?"
55961Marlow?"
55961Mr. Beauchamp, can you give me a check?"
55961Mr. Beauchamp, will you remain here?"
55961Not this one?"
55961Not to Brighton?"
55961Now, do you understand why I want to see his widow?"
55961Of course, you know what has happened at Heathton?"
55961Oh, Alan, is it true?"
55961Oh, dear Vicky, what does it mean?"
55961Phelps,"--Alan forgot his respect for the Rector in his rage--"do you believe this lying story?"
55961Shall I show him in?"
55961She has Sophy''s son and heir to care for, and what more can she want?
55961Short, eh?"
55961Should your innocence be established, you would surely reappear as Richard Marlow?"
55961So Lestrange found out-- from Jarks, I suppose-- that I was at Heathton on the night of the funeral?"
55961So you escaped?"
55961Sophy, what is the matter?"
55961Tell me, do you know who this so- called Quiet Gentleman really is?"
55961The key of the vault----""Not your key, Alan?"
55961Then, observing the looks of surprise directed at him by the other two, he added:"Did n''t you know?
55961Thomas?"
55961Thorold?"
55961Thorold?"
55961Thorold?"
55961Thorold?"
55961Thorold?"
55961Timber?"
55961Timber?"
55961Timber?"
55961Under what name?"
55961Vicky, is Joe mad?"
55961Warrender was a doctor; he took away the body-- why should the lancet not belong to him?
55961Warrender?"
55961Warrender?"
55961Warrender?"
55961Warrender?"
55961Warrender?"
55961Warrender?"
55961Warrender?"
55961Was he hunting him down?
55961Was it the doctor himself?"
55961Was there any serious reason for such secrecy?"
55961Well, I suppose you are wondering why I have come to see you?"
55961Well, and what does he say?"
55961Well, my boy, what is to be done now?"
55961Were we not boys together till he went to Africa?"
55961What about Sophy?"
55961What about him?
55961What about the certificate?"
55961What business, Vicky?--and how can it turn out well for me?
55961What could he be doing?
55961What do ye want to see Muster Marlow for?"
55961What do you know about this matter?"
55961What do you mean, man?"
55961What do you mean?"
55961What do you mean?"
55961What do you mean?"
55961What do you mean?"
55961What do you mean?"
55961What do you think of it?"
55961What for?"
55961What good fairy sent you here?
55961What had Joe done?"
55961What had he done with himself during the forty years he had lived in the West Indies?
55961What has he to do with all this?
55961What have you been doing?"
55961What have you to do with the matter?"
55961What if he should be Marlow himself?"
55961What if his claim could be substantiated?
55961What purpose would it serve?
55961What story?"
55961What was it he heard now?
55961What''ll Mr. Brown say when he comes back and finds his things gone?
55961What''s that?"
55961What''ud they go for?
55961When can we leave, Alan?"
55961When do they hold the inquest on Warrender?"
55961When will you be ready to return, Sophy, my dear?"
55961Where are you going?"
55961Where is he, Miss Vicky?"
55961Where is that meal or sixpence now?
55961Where is the lady?"
55961Where were you last night?
55961Where?"
55961Who is he?"
55961Who is my employer?
55961Who made him drunk?"
55961Who''s gone?
55961Who''s that?"
55961Why London?"
55961Why did n''t you tell us you were at Heathton on that night?
55961Why did you come?
55961Why do you ask?"
55961Why do you come into my life again?
55961Why had the body been removed?
55961Why have you come?"
55961Why should I deceive you?"
55961Why should I have been?
55961Why should I?
55961Why should he steal a corpse?"
55961Why should he?
55961Why should it not be true?
55961Why should n''t we get that reward by working together?"
55961Why should that body have been stolen?"
55961Why, then, come up to pay blackmail?"
55961Why?"
55961Will you pay me for a sight of that letter?"
55961Will you smoke?"
55961Wo n''t you?"
55961Would her champion fail her?
55961Would this man prove his claim?
55961Y''ain''t a''tec?"
55961You are of the same faith?"
55961You did n''t attend him?"
55961You do n''t know Horace, perhaps?"
55961You have no objection, I suppose, to come with me to Heathton and repeat this story?"
55961You have the confession?"
55961You know, of course, the funeral of Mr. Marlow took place in the morning?"
55961You murdered that girl''s father?"
55961You say that Lestrange arrived on the day and by the boat he asserted that he did?"
55961You see this lancet?
55961a play- actor?"
55961and how do you intend to get them?"
55961and leave the servants to wilful waste and extravagance?
55961and you know, sir, how Mrs. Lestrange ran away to Mr. Beauchamp from the way her husband treated her?"
55961are you sure he has the key?"
55961cried Alan passionately,"why did you not trust Sophy and me?
55961cried Alan suddenly,"did Joe get it from Brown?"
55961exclaimed Alan,"and he stole the key of the vault?"
55961growled the coachman,"an''why not?
55961he said,"when you took in the letter, might you have looked at the postmark, my friend?"
55961is little Sophy still alive?"
55961muttered Mr. Phelps, considering,"and of Mrs. Warrender''s suspicious flight, what think you?"
55961on what grounds can she do that?"
55961remarked Mr. Phelps ironically,"and Thorold put the remains of Dr. Warrender back in the vault, I suppose?
55961that was why Joe could not say who killed Achille?"
55961would n''t he be back if he was n''t?
42332A day or two?
42332A failure? 42332 A gamble?
42332A pet of mine,--he answered, smiling slightly--"Did you ever see anything like it before?"
42332A very good man,--you could not have a better--he said complacently--"And this book of yours,--when does it come out?"
42332All women?
42332Alone? 42332 Am I not fully aware of that?"
42332Am I?
42332An exception? 42332 And after you die?"
42332And are the dancers here?
42332And have you been thinking?
42332And now what do you say-- shall we mention it Bentham?--or shall we not mention it?
42332And physical ailments are the only ones worth troubling about, you think?
42332And the woman?
42332And what does Lady Sibyl say?
42332And what of the critics?
42332And what was it?
42332And what would you have me do?
42332And you,--I interrupted him suddenly, and with some warmth--"do you know what_ you_ look?
42332And you?
42332And your rival, Mavis Clare? 42332 And... the prince... does he like her?"
42332Anyhow,resumed Miss Chesney"you''re young enough, to enjoy your wealth are n''t you?"
42332Are you a democrat, prince?
42332Are you a worker of miracles?
42332Are you growing weary of the voyage Geoffrey?
42332Are you miserable, for instance?
42332Are you not cold, Miss Chesney?
42332Are you really? 42332 Are you so blind that you can not perceive why?"
42332Are you too blind to see that I am?
42332Are_ you_ in the dumps now Lucio?
42332Assist me? 42332 But are you not making up your mind rather suddenly?
42332But he did know--I said--"Did you not say you exchanged cards?"
42332But he seemed to recognise you,--I said--"Have you met him before?"
42332But how?
42332But surely you are taking too much personal trouble,--I said--"Can''t I help in any way?"
42332But there are two other owls in the cage--I said--"What are their names?"
42332But why do you do such things?
42332But why?
42332But why?
42332But you--I began--"you say you believe in the soul?"
42332But your people--he said--"Your family-- are they literary?"
42332But-- who was She?
42332By a reliable authority?
42332Can I assist you sir?
42332Can I be of any service?
42332Can he ride?
42332Can you ask? 42332 Can you be happy with_ me_?"
42332Changed? 42332 Did I not say you would change, Sibyl?"
42332Did I? 42332 Did I?"
42332Did I?
42332Did you give me old Tokay?
42332Did you though?
42332Did you wish me to be impressed?
42332Did you? 42332 Did you?"
42332Do n''t use impossible comparisons;--he replied--"Have you ever heard an angel sing?"
42332Do n''t you admire her?
42332Do n''t you find that people look at you very often as you pass, Lucio?
42332Do you believe in hell?
42332Do you believe in him?
42332Do you call that course of procedure honest?
42332Do you consider me empty- headed?
42332Do you know Me now, man whom my millions of dross have made wretched?--or do you need me to tell you WHO I am?
42332Do you like her?
42332Do you mean to tell me McWhing will take that five hundred?
42332Do you mean to tell me,I said earnestly"that what I saw just now was the mere thought of your brain conveyed to mine?"
42332Do you not feel the world already at your feet?
42332Do you not? 42332 Do you not?
42332Do you play?
42332Do you really mean it?
42332Do you take me for such a callous creature as all that?
42332Do you want the human race to be perfect?
42332Do you want to become her lover?
42332Do you?
42332Does not everyone approve and admire you?
42332Dull then?
42332Exactly!--How is it possible? 42332 Excuse me sir,"--he then observed--"but I daresay you''ve noticed that there''s something unpleasant- like about the prince''s valet, Amiel?"
42332Famous?
42332For you?
42332From_ me_?
42332Funny?
42332Give it way? 42332 Grateful to-- whom did you say?"
42332Has the prince retired?
42332Has this a good sale?
42332Have you dined?
42332Have you got a room for Mr Tempest?
42332Have you not heard?
42332He has a red lamp in his window has he not?
42332He is a great friend of yours?
42332He is surely a very singular man,--said Mavis thoughtfully--"Do you remember how strangely my dogs behaved to him?
42332Heard? 42332 Honest?
42332How do you know I am not one?
42332How do you know all this you tell me of?
42332How so?
42332I believe,I said suddenly, addressing the Earl--"you used to live in Warwickshire at Willowsmere Court did you not?"
42332I confess I am tired,--I said, and an unconscious sigh escaped me--"And you?"
42332I perceive you are a cynic,--I said--"Yet surely you believe that there are some things wealth can not buy,--honour and virtue for example?"
42332I suppose you know,--I began with harsh abruptness--"that the sleeping- draught story is a polite fiction?
42332I suppose--I said slowly,"you, in your pursuit of science, would infer from this that nothing actually perishes completely?"
42332I? 42332 I?
42332If that is so,he answered,"why in Heaven''s name do you not let the other planets alone?
42332If you do not mean to be her friend, you should tell her so,--I said presently--"You heard what she said about pretended protestations of regard?"
42332Is Amiel with you?
42332Is Miss Clare at home?
42332Is it alive?
42332Is it? 42332 Is it?"
42332Is not----may not this be a mistaken surmise of yours?
42332Is that your humour?
42332Is the book such wretched stuff as you make it out to be?
42332Is there anything I can do for you sir?
42332Is this your first visit to Willowsmere Court?
42332It is a pity you should appeal to it then;--he responded with a smile--"If you think so little of the public why give it anything of your brain?
42332It is best to be frank, is it not?
42332Just now,--when you kissed me?
42332Lady Elton would like to hear you sing, prince--she said--"Will you give us that pleasure?
42332Listen, my friend,I said earnestly--"You know I have been busy for the last fortnight correcting the proofs of my book for the press,--do you not?"
42332Look at this--I said--"Does_ she_ pay five hundred pounds to David McWhing''s charity?"
42332Many people would be glad to accept such responsibilities and change places with me--I said with a flippant air--"You yourself, for example?"
42332May I come and inquire about you all to- morrow?
42332May I come and talk to you sometimes?
42332May I keep these?
42332Melodramatic?
42332Miss Clare, are you going to name a pigeon after Mr Tempest?
42332Mr Tempest is going to marry the daughter of the former owner of Willowsmere,--put in Lucio,--"No doubt you have seen it announced in the papers?"
42332Mr Tempest?
42332My dear fellow, how else should they be done?
42332My name?
42332My worst enemy?
42332No? 42332 No?"
42332Nor give?
42332Nothing can happen to you against your will--he replied;"I suppose you wish to imply that I am to blame for introducing you to the club?
42332Of whom are you speaking, Mavis?
42332Oh there is nothing either to fear or to hope--I said with some violence--"_She did it._ And can you guess why she did it?
42332Oh, are you so blind,she cried,"as not to see what this means?
42332Oh, is that the way these things are done?
42332Oh, why?
42332Oh, you are happy then?
42332Oh, you did, did you?
42332Pardon me,I interposed somewhat wearily--"but are you sure you judge the public taste correctly?"
42332Perhaps you are in love?
42332Perhaps--he continued,"as we''re so near home, you''ll let me know your name?
42332Perhaps,I said,"he has not really killed himself?
42332Rather an odd name, Mavis, is n''t it?
42332Really? 42332 Rimânez?
42332Sale?
42332Seriously?
42332Shall I give you some music now, Madame?
42332Shall I see you if I come?
42332Shall I tell you? 42332 Shall we try?"
42332She? 42332 So I heard,"--she said, still observing me curiously--"And you are satisfied with it?"
42332So he will never marry?
42332So you''re the famous Mr Tempest?
42332Surely sir,said Miss Charlotte Fitzroy severely--"you believe in Heaven?"
42332Take? 42332 Tell me,"I said with a half- smile--"Do you know how to love yet?"
42332Tell me,--quick-- what is wrong?
42332That is your christian name--?
42332That is your opinion?
42332That_ was_?
42332The devil? 42332 The end?"
42332The paralysed Helen of a modern Troy? 42332 The sun is too strong for you I fear?"
42332Then he hates me?
42332Then you know the dear Canon?
42332Think I''m irreverent, do n''t you?
42332Think so? 42332 This must be very bad for your health,"--I said, drawing my chair closer to hers--"Can you not get away for a change?"
42332To what article do you allude, Miss Clare?
42332Tricksy, what_ is_ the matter?
42332True!--but may not inspiration refuse to flow from a full purse and an empty head?
42332Two critics?
42332Upon my word I think I would rather go to bed than anything--I confessed--"But what about my room?"
42332Upon my word, you put me in a very awkward position Geoffrey,--what is to be done? 42332 Was it because you desired to make me happy out of pure love for me?"
42332Was she''rapid''?
42332We dine at the Eltons''to- night, do we not?
42332We shall be delighted,--he mumbled--"when do you take possession?"
42332We shall do our best for you, Mr Tempest, shall we not Bentham?
42332Well sir, the prince has a_ chef_ of his own has n''t he?
42332Well, how old are you really?
42332Well? 42332 Well?"
42332Well?
42332What am I to do?
42332What did you feel then?
42332What did you marry me for?
42332What do you know about it?
42332What do you mean, Sibyl?
42332What do you think of her?
42332What do you want to do that for, with your immense position?
42332What does he do with the other servants?
42332What does money do for you?
42332What for?
42332What has she done in literature?
42332What has the poor little planet done?
42332What have your teachers done with me and my eternal sorrows?
42332What is it?
42332What is it?
42332What is it?
42332What is that?
42332What is? 42332 What is?"
42332What strange song is that?
42332When did you arrive in England?
42332When, Sibyl?
42332Where are you off to?
42332Where is Diana?
42332Where is she?
42332Where is_ your_ friend?
42332Who is that?
42332Why Lucio, I thought you hated women?
42332Why be mortified?
42332Why do n''t you read Mavis Clare''s books?
42332Why do you join the procession then?
42332Why do you now seem to tremble at a mere sentimental idea? 42332 Why do you say that now?"
42332Why do you sigh?
42332Why should they choose Mavis Clare?
42332Why should you imagine he does not?
42332Why, what did he do?
42332Why, what has happened to you since we parted?
42332Why, what''s the matter?
42332Why? 42332 Why?
42332Why?
42332Why?
42332Why?
42332Why?
42332Why?
42332Why?
42332Why?
42332Will you continue your literary career now you have this little fortune left you?
42332Will you make up another game with me?
42332Will you sit here Geoffrey?
42332Will you take a composing draught if I mix it for you?
42332With Sibyl?
42332With alarm?
42332Worries?
42332Would you?
42332Wrong? 42332 Yes, you-- why not?
42332Yes,--it does seem strange,--doesn''t it?
42332You are a great friend of Prince Rimânez?
42332You are a ruling power then?
42332You are a very young man to be a millionaire,--were her next words, uttered with evident difficulty--"Are you married?"
42332You are to be married in June?
42332You begin to hate her----you?--and why?
42332You find it stupid perhaps?
42332You have been thinking of your wife?
42332You have perceived that, then, Sibyl?
42332You know its contents?
42332You know the Prince?
42332You know the trite saying-- appearances are deceptive?
42332You like your purchase?
42332You look tired Lady Sibyl,--I said gently--"Are you not well?"
42332You love me,--yes, I know, but how? 42332 You never work at night?"
42332You speak a trifle bitterly, prince--I said--"But no doubt you have had a wide experience among men?"
42332You speak sarcastically of course?
42332You think so?
42332You think so?
42332You understand I suppose, that I shall only issue two hundred and fifty copies at first?
42332You will come, will you not? 42332 You will tell Prince Rimânez the news?"
42332You will?
42332You would wish to be thanked?
42332You? 42332 Your book?
42332Your face seems familiar to me,--she said, speaking now, as it seemed, with greater ease--"Have I ever met you before?"
42332Your fun?
42332_ What_ is he?
42332''Originally''?
42332''Originally''an author?
42332''You are not--_hic_--a poet yourself?''
42332--and his eyes sparkled half maliciously--"Can it be a case of genius after all?
42332--and yet remain unspoilt and innocent?
42332--replied Lucio, carefully drawing on his gloves as he spoke--"Where''s a copy of your book?
42332... or what is this terrible misgiving that is taking possession of me?
42332... what gem of his land was thus tenderly enshrined?
42332... when you know WHO I am?"
42332...""Have you one to give?"
42332...""That the dead Egyptian dancer resembled your late wife?"
42332..._ The_ Mr Tempest?----the great millionaire that_ was_?"
423322075/ V PRINTED IN GREAT BRITAIN THE SORROWS OF SATAN I Do you know what it is to be poor?
42332A few years, and we all die, and are forgotten even by those who loved us,--why should we lose such joys as we may have for the mere asking?
42332A genius?
42332A good woman?
42332A saint?
42332Afterwards however, when he had gone, she turned to me with a grin and remarked--"You saw me kiss Bertie, did n''t you?
42332Again I asked myself-- Was there no happiness possible in all the world?
42332Almost yourself again, eh?"
42332Am I so repugnant to you?
42332An angel?
42332And I?
42332And Sibyl only smiled, that patent ice- refrigerator smile of hers, and asked--''would you prefer to live with Mrs Catsup?''
42332And also about this gentleman, Mr Geoffrey Tempest?"
42332And another thing I want to know is this-- what does he do with the other servants?"
42332And are you not satisfied?
42332And betray the club and all its members?
42332And do you not owe me at least some duty?"
42332And love-- of course you will fall in love if you have not already done so,--have you?"
42332And perhaps a music- hall afterwards if you feel inclined,--what do you say?"
42332And should we master it?--or would it master us?
42332And so we are to be friends?"
42332And that snowy palanquin, carried by lily- crowned girls, that followed his train,--who occupied it?
42332And there are others again who get kicked and buffeted and mocked and derided----""Like Christ?"
42332And there we have it-- how can one feel, when one''s self is so thoroughly comfortable as to be without any other feeling save that of material ease?
42332And this is all that the culture and training of nineteenth- century civilization can do for you?
42332And what else have you done with yourself?"
42332And why should you wish to comfort folks who, out of their own sheer stupidity generally, get into trouble?
42332And why?
42332And you found him humorous, did you?"
42332Any more of the crew afloat?"
42332Are you cold, Sibyl?"
42332Are you not going to entertain the Prince of Wales?--and shall anyone be more''eagerly- desired''than he?
42332Are you not loaded with jewels?--have you not greater luxuries and liberties than a queen?
42332Are you not one of the richest men living?"
42332As for''despising''you, have I not said that I admire you?
42332As indeed why should they not?"
42332As long as no public scandal is made, what harm is done?
42332At night, as soon as I had an opportunity of speaking to Rimânez alone, I asked him..."Did you see,----did you not recognize?
42332At that very instant she turned to me and said--"You are the famous Mr Tempest, are you not?"
42332At what hour would I dine?
42332Because it''s true?
42332Because they are able to exist independently?
42332Besides, are you not always trying to do good?"
42332Besides, was not I as willing to be degraded as she was to degrade me?--a very victim to my brute passions?
42332But I am not sure whether she will receive you,--"the maid replied--"Unless you have an appointment?"
42332But I do not think he ever quite dispossessed himself of the idea itself, did he Bentham?"
42332But I will think about it-- where will a letter find you?"
42332But I wish you would not analyse yourself so pitilessly,--you have such strange ideas--""You think them strange?"
42332But I wonder where he''s going?
42332But do you know I think your article was even cleverer?"
42332But do you know what your music suggests?"
42332But do you think these antics of his are mischievous?"
42332But how to do it?
42332But is it of much avail to be virtuous?
42332But on this matter of Mavis Clare, can you not imagine that badness may hate goodness?
42332But what a singularly marked antipathy, is it not?
42332But what would you have me be?
42332But when are we to make this sensation?"
42332But would n''t you like to secure it for yourself?"
42332But you, Sibyl-- why do you read such stuff?--how can you read it?"
42332But,--where and how to send in my account with him?
42332By the way, have you noticed how the legended God still appears to protect the house of Israel?
42332By- the- by, where are all the''artistes,''--the musicians and dancers?"
42332Can it be that I am losing reason and courage together?
42332Can you not realize this, even by way of a legendary story?"
42332Can you not understand?
42332Can you put them in order, Amiel?"
42332Can you reject me when I pray to you thus?--when I offer you all myself,--all that I am, or ever hope to be?
42332Can you tell?
42332Come along-- come and see the little American, eh?
42332Come and dine with us, Mr Tempest,--Lucio, you bring him along with you, eh?
42332Death?
42332Did you ever imagine that a human being or a human conscience existed that could not be bought?
42332Do sit down, wo n''t you?"
42332Do you know Geoffrey, when the Judgment Day arrives, who will be among the first saints to ascend to Heaven with the sounding of trumpets?"
42332Do you know I used to watch you playing about on the lawns at Willowsmere when I was quite a little girl?"
42332Do you know what_ I_ felt?"
42332Do you know, it quite frightened me?"
42332Do you like her?"
42332Do you mean to tell me you have no belief in a future life?"
42332Do you mind that?"
42332Do you not know your worst enemy?"
42332Do you not recognise it?"
42332Do you not think so, Geoffrey?"
42332Do you think that ever a man was born like you?"
42332Do_ their_ griefs affect_ you_?
42332Does this redound to your credit?
42332For was it possible I should ever hate him?
42332From this point of view, am I wrong in calling my kingdom vast?--is it not almost boundless?"
42332From what kingdom does he come?--to what nation does he belong?
42332Genius thrives in a garret and dies in a palace,--is not that the generally accepted theory?"
42332Good God!--what are such women as you made of?
42332Had n''t you better inspect the property first?
42332Has our dear railway papa''bust up''?"
42332Have I grudged you anything?
42332Have n''t I got_ you_ as security?"
42332Have you never heard of it, Geoffrey?
42332Have you never heard that?"
42332Have you never thought out any reason why he should be the one flaw,--the one incomplete creature in a matchless Creation?"
42332Have you no shame?"
42332Have you no wider ambitions?
42332Have you not the same base passions as I?--and do you not give way to them as basely?
42332He is a born scoundrel,--and has never seen his way to being anything else,--why should you compassionate him?
42332He paused a moment, then added--"I wonder how we have managed to get on such an absurd subject of conversation?
42332He seeks to soar beyond the furniture man,--and who shall blame him?
42332He smiled, a little ironically I thought, then resumed--"Well, in what, at present does your idea of enjoying your heritage consist?"
42332Her eyes were wistful,--her face was pensive and expectant; she seemed to say,"Will the world ever know that I am here?"
42332Here I pause and ask myself,--Was not I also a libertine?
42332History repeats itself,--why should not lovely women repeat themselves?
42332Honest?"
42332How came I to write the book at all, seeing that it was utterly unlike me as I now knew myself?
42332How can I do otherwise if I believe in heaven?
42332How do you feel?"
42332How should I begin the jesuitical business of committing evil that good, personal good, might come of it?
42332How was it that Mavis Clare had telegraphed to me?
42332How was it?
42332Hullo, what''s this?"
42332I am here to make friends with you if you permit,--and to put an end to ceremony, will you accompany me back to my hotel where I have ordered supper?"
42332I answered laughing--"What do you say that for?"
42332I ask again, will you love me, do you think?
42332I asked him jestingly--"Do you mean it?"
42332I asked him suddenly--"And in Satan, the Arch- Enemy of mankind?"
42332I asked, amused--"Why do you hate the Earth?
42332I asked, getting impatient--"Did he want to bring out some patent?--a new notion for a flying- machine, and get rid of his money in that way?"
42332I asked--"What would you advise?"
42332I can do nothing for you-- you will not have my aid-- you reject my service?
42332I did not believe in a God; why should I inconsistently feel regret that she shared my unbelief?
42332I did not know you had written one?"
42332I echoed amazed--"You surprise me, Mavis,--what have I, or my enemies or friends to do with my wife''s last confession?
42332I exclaimed with some astonishment--"Yours is not a title of honour only?"
42332I exclaimed--"How can you do such an impossible thing?"
42332I exclaimed--"Poor man!--a weak spot in his brain somewhere evidently,--or perhaps he used the expression as a mere figure of speech?"
42332I exclaimed--"Surely he does not keep a boarding- house?"
42332I exclaimed--"_Who_ is she?"
42332I fancy Lady Sibyl has powerfully impressed you?"
42332I feel most keenly----""What do you feel?"
42332I have read all those books,--and what can you expect of me?
42332I hope he has not hurt you?"
42332I hope it is improper?"
42332I hope you do not think me too proud?"
42332I listened in silence till he had finished,--then I asked him--''Love, I suppose, is not to be considered in the matter?''
42332I may do what I choose with you, you say?
42332I murmured,--somehow the idea pleased me--"Yes,----why not?"
42332I peered into her face,--then at the reflection of that face in the mirror,--and again I grew perplexed,--was it, could it be Sibyl after all?
42332I please your fancy, do I not?"
42332I repeated bewilderedly--"What on earth do you mean?"
42332I repeated bitterly--"How has it been obtained?
42332I repeated slowly--"or a devil?
42332I repeated--"What do you mean?"
42332I said roughly--"You can be frank with me, you know,--angel or devil-- which?"
42332I said warmly--"I really am surprised that Lord Elton should condescend----""Condescend to what?"
42332I said''Are n''t you going too?''
42332I said, pleased at the friendly familiarity he displayed in thus calling me by my Christian name--"What have you got there?"
42332I said--"Would He,--the Divine Brother and Friend of man,--reject me?"
42332I said--"You do not really believe what you say?"
42332I said--"You yourself are unusually rich,--are you sorry for it?"
42332I stared at the twain with dry burning eyes,--what did this portend?
42332I started up listening, every nerve strained----Ahrimanes?--or Rimânez?
42332I suppose my looks expressed my thoughts, for Rimânez, who had observed me intently, presently added--"Did he not tell you of his luck?
42332I suppose you were-- originally I mean-- an author by profession?"
42332I suppose you''re one of the richest men about just now, are n''t you?"
42332I thought of Sibyl and her incomparable beauty----Sibyl, who had told me she could not love,--had we both to learn a lesson?
42332I took possession of this one myself in rather a weird fashion,--will the story bore you?"
42332I watched him for a moment,--then with sudden irrelevance I said--"Put that abominable''sprite''of yours away, will you?
42332I whispered--"Sibyl, what is wrong with us both?
42332I wonder how she does it, Geoffrey?"
42332I wonder why it is that some women are so fond of playing the hypocrite in love?
42332I?
42332I?"
42332If I offer you a chance to turn an honest penny shall your paid pack of''readers''prevent your accepting it?
42332If I seem churlish I''m sorry-- but the fact is I am disgusted...""At what?"
42332If a lady has lovers, and her husband beams benevolence on the situation what can be said?
42332If we do things that shame our sex, is it not because you set us the example?
42332If you have finished your tea, will you come and see them?"
42332If you remember, you promised to explain it to me----""Are you ready to receive such an explanation?"
42332In the same bitter school, under the same formidable taskmaster?
42332In these''matters scientific''you have not tested my skill,--yet you ask--''how can I know?''
42332Innocent?--ignorant?
42332Is Morris disgusted or alarmed?"
42332Is it well or ill for us I wonder, that the future is hidden from our knowledge?
42332Is there a more flagrant example of topsy- turveydom than yourself for instance?
42332Is there a time on which you can look back, and looking, see my face, not here but elsewhere?
42332It is Nature''s revenge on the outraged body,--and do you know, Eternity''s revenge on the impure Soul is extremely similar?"
42332It may be only an attempt?"
42332It was very good of him to lend it to me,--you had better have it as security for this pocket- book,--by- the- bye how much is there inside it?"
42332Know you not that the changeless, yet ever- changing Essence of Immortal Life can take a million million shapes and yet remain unalterably the same?
42332Love and joy?
42332Madame"--here he addressed Lady Elton;"are you fond of music?"
42332May I stay a little?"
42332May I your study?"
42332May we ask whether you require any cash advances immediately?"
42332My darling, what do you take me for?--what is all this nonsense in your mind about buying and selling?
42332No?
42332Now I make no pretences of the kind,--I have only one faith--""And that is?"
42332Now as to this five hundred"--"Keep it, man, keep it"--he interposed impatiently--"What do you talk about security for?
42332Now, how had this happened, I asked myself?
42332Or are you tired, and would you prefer a long night''s rest?"
42332Or could this startling, this stupendous piece of information be really true?
42332Or found a newspaper?
42332Or in other words how do you mean to begin spending your money?"
42332Or,--did she mean to bewitch and subjugate Lucio?
42332Papa, are you an extemporized fire- screen?"
42332Particularly the''base usurer''who is allowed to get the unhappy Christian into his clutches nine times out of ten?
42332People must look after themselves you know-- eh?"
42332Reform her?
42332Reform myself?
42332Shall I enumerate them for your consideration?"
42332Shall I read your petition for forgiveness here?"
42332Shall we see what she is like?"
42332She looked at me in the same way again and said--''To the_ Catsups_?
42332She writes with inspiration,--and always has something so new to say--""That of course all the critics are down upon her?"
42332Should my present apartment be retained?--or was it not satisfactory?
42332Should we steer our ways clearer from evil if we knew its result?
42332Six weeks ago, what were you?
42332Such a love as yours!--what is it?
42332Surely_ you_ know that?"
42332Take Mavis Clare----""Oh, you were thinking of Mavis Clare, were you?"
42332Tell me,--think for a moment!--can you remember me?
42332That I did this very melodramatically I hope you will admit?
42332That is what I do occasionally,--you would not think it of me, would you?"
42332That the confirmed drunkard may hate the sober citizen?
42332That the outcast may hate the innocent maiden?
42332The remark they usually made to me wherever I went was--"You have written a novel, have n''t you?
42332The sooner I interview them the better,--don''t you think so?"
42332Then he glanced up at me with a half- smile--"Would you like to see a city resuscitated?"
42332Then turning to us, she went on--"Isn''t he a lovely owl?
42332Then, if you are alive, where are you, Sibyl?----where are you?"
42332This is the end of March,--will you be ready to marry me in June?"
42332Thursday shall it be?"
42332To kill the poor thing who managed to find life in the very bosom of death, is a cruel suggestion, is it not?
42332Was I going mad, or sickening for a fever?
42332Was I not one still?
42332Was I to be given credit for nothing but my banking- book?
42332Was he afraid I might trouble him for further loans?
42332Was he-- my friend-- a traitor?
42332Was human nature as base and abandoned as this man declared it to be?
42332Was it indeed my wife?--this frozen statue of a woman, watching her own impassive image thus intently?
42332Was it my fancy, or had his musical voice the faintest touch of a sneer as he uttered the last words?
42332Was it my fancy-- or did I hear peals of wild laughter circling round the brilliant pavilion and echoing away, far away into distance?
42332Was it then merely a vision I had seen?--a ghastly sort of nightmare?
42332Was she Mavis Clare?
42332Was she,--was Sibyl-- more to blame than I myself for all the strange havoc wrought?
42332Was she-- my wife-- false?
42332Was there no God but Lust?
42332We have more knowledge you will say,--but how can we be sure of that?
42332We''ve got three or four hours to spare before we take the train back to town,--suppose we take a saunter through the grounds?"
42332Well!--millionaire as you are, and acknowledged lion of society as you shortly will be, there is no objection I hope, to the proposed supper?
42332Well, I flared up, and said of course I thought it possible,--why should n''t it be possible?
42332Well, what are you going to do?"
42332Well,--after all, why should I expect him to be different to other men?
42332Well,--and are you not famous?"
42332Were men and women lower and more depraved in their passions and appetites than the very beasts?
42332What are you?--why do you talk to me so strangely?
42332What belongs to the earth tends earthwards,--surely you realize that?
42332What can be done against her?
42332What could I do with a woman such as she to whom I was now bound for life?
42332What dark cloud is on your mind?
42332What did she mean?
42332What do you mean?
42332What do you propose to make of your life?
42332What do you take me for?"
42332What does it mean?"
42332What had I done, I demanded indignantly of myself, to deserve this wretchedness which no wealth could cure?--why was fate so unjust?
42332What had I done?
42332What had I missed out of life?
42332What has the poor little planet done to merit your abhorrence?"
42332What have I seen in you from day to day that I should take you as an example?
42332What have_ you_ done for your fellow- men?
42332What have_ you_ done, you as my husband, to change those ideas?
42332What if death were not what the scientists deem it,--suppose it were another form of life?
42332What is it worth?"
42332What is it?
42332What is your story about?
42332What more do you want of Fate or Fortune?
42332What pleasure comes from goodness?--what gratification from self- denial?
42332What shall we do with the rest of the evening?
42332What should I do then?
42332What was it all about?
42332What was the''something alarming''that had happened?
42332What will you take to bring it out?"
42332What_ can_ there be wrong about you, Tempest?
42332When I asked if you were the famous Mr Tempest, I meant to say were you the great millionaire who has been so much talked of lately?"
42332When the thunder crashes down a second after the lightning, does it not seem to you that the very clouds combine in the holy war?
42332When would I be pleased to lunch?
42332Where are you off to?"
42332Where in the world did you study?"
42332Where were you wrecked?
42332Where?"
42332Which would you say she is?--you, who sometimes declare that you believe in Heaven,--and Hell?"
42332Whither were we bound?
42332Who is your presenter?"
42332Who will believe that anything so strange and terrific ever chanced to the lot of a mortal man?
42332Who will credit it?
42332Whom do you mean?"
42332Why could I not answer?
42332Why did I not start a theatre?
42332Why did you not come out of the shadow of that elm- tree and see the play to a better advantage?"
42332Why did you stop so long in front of the daïs?"
42332Why do you strive to fathom their mysteries and movements?
42332Why had I thus invited the public to accept me at a false valuation?
42332Why should n''t a book get noticed on its own merits without any appeal to cliquism and influential wire- pulling on the press?"
42332Why should the wicked flourish like a green bay- tree?
42332Why should they?
42332Why should you call curses down upon me?
42332Why then should I be blamed or my desires considered criminal?
42332Why was it?
42332Why, in Heaven''s name do you not give it way?"
42332Why, the very love that now consumes me is----""What?"
42332Why, what harm has this Mavis Clare done to you?
42332Will they be taught, I wonder, the lesson I have learned?
42332Will you come on to my club and dine with me?"
42332Will you come?"
42332Will you come?"
42332Will you give me the name and address of the agents?"
42332Will you risk that non- existent quantity for the chance of winning a thousand pounds?"
42332Wilt thou serve Self and Me?
42332Win fame,--true fame,--after all?
42332Wo n''t you sit down?"
42332Would I prefer a''suite''similar to that occupied by his excellency?
42332Would you believe it, that before we reached Chamounix we had become the best friends in the world?
42332Would you have me tell humbugs that I know them as such?,--and liars that I discern their lies?
42332Would you have them all the slaves of man''s lust or convenience?
42332Yet of what use is it to pray against eternal Law?
42332Yet what she said was in no way contrary to my own theories,--how then could I complain?
42332You can fancy a''swagger''lady of Elizabeth''s time asking a friend--''O do you mind, my dear, if I bring one Master William Shakespeare to see you?
42332You dare to talk of love?
42332You expected to see an old man you say?
42332You have lately spoken of buying a country estate-- what say you to Willowsmere Court in Warwickshire?
42332You imply that I assert my wealth in my face; do you know what_ you_ assert in your every glance and gesture?"
42332You know Who it was that said''Bless them that curse you, and do good to them that hate you''?
42332You know that my wife poisoned herself intentionally?"
42332You know the words,''Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil''?
42332You know they do not,--you know you never think of them,--why should you?
42332You look incredulous?
42332You remember what Shelley wrote of critics?
42332You seem to take a perverse delight in running yourself down!--but you know the old adage,''the devil is not so black as he is painted''?"
42332You shudder?--the thought of her hideousness is repellent to your self- conscious beauty?
42332Your house- party is fixed for September, I believe?"
42332Your''cursed luck''you think, has caused Lynton''s death?
42332_ She_ thought as I do,--and with reason,--for what has God done for her?
42332_ You_ are going to buy Willowsmere?"
42332and I felt distinctly annoyed--"You do n''t think my book original enough to stand alone?"
42332and I stopped to gaze intently into her fair face--"And how did you learn?"
42332and he laughed bitterly--"Have you not found that out yet?
42332and he pointed to a mass of white bloom in one of the windows--"Are they not far more beautiful creatures than men and women?
42332and he smiled apologetically--"a little brusque?
42332and he smiled;"Can you not explain?"
42332and her blue eyes danced with fun as she handed me my cup of tea--"You really do n''t suppose I was hurt by your critique, do you?
42332and she drew a flower from the knot at her bosom, and began fastening it in my coat--"Geoffrey what is the good of pretence?
42332and she raised her arms with a tragic gesture;"Is there any flaw in the piece of goods you wish to purchase?
42332are you not?"
42332asked Sibyl suddenly, apparently to change the subject--"Why does he so seldom come here now?"
42332continued Lady Sibyl, in accents of studied courtesy--"Would you not like to come nearer the fire?"
42332echoed Lady Sibyl,--"Do you believe the world will ever come to an end?"
42332echoed Mavis surprisedly--"Does he hate women?
42332echoed Sibyl--"But you surely will not leave us so soon?
42332exclaimed Lord Elton at this juncture--"You do n''t look it, does he Charlotte?"
42332exclaimed Lord Elton--"you do n''t call this play low or immoral do you?
42332have they had supper?"
42332he answered, his accents vibrating with intense melancholy--"Can you think I am happy?
42332he asked derisively--"Is it not already disposed of?
42332he asked--"Weary of those two suggestions of eternity-- the interminable sky, the interminable sea?
42332he demanded somewhat impatiently--"Do you think_ anything_ in the world is done without money?
42332he exclaimed cheerfully--"Why do n''t you light up?"
42332he exclaimed with a laugh--"Why so cruel to her Geoffrey?
42332he exclaimed--"You do n''t mean to tell me you have written a novel Mr Tempest?"
42332he queried half playfully, half ironically--"Like a football, waiting to be kicked?
42332he responded--"Shall I enter a horse for you?"
42332he retorted--"and do I not speak for myself?
42332he said still smiling--"you really think so?
42332he said--"Do you want to be called up to identify?
42332he said--"Nothing but perfect beauty will suit you, eh?
42332he said--"Will you love me then?"
42332he went on--"Going to try and place that unlucky novel?
42332he went on--"Have not they, and the unthinking churches, proclaimed a lie against me, saying that I rejoice in evil?
42332inquired Lucio--"Condescend to take two thousand guineas a year?
42332now?"
42332or God only?"
42332or some- one sent to say that the novelist could not receive us?
42332pursued Sibyl--"Or because you wished to add dignity to your own position by wedding the daughter of an Earl?
42332queried Lucio, laughing--"Or with disgust?"
42332said Lucio with an air of pious rapture--"and why?
42332said Mavis, addressing the spiteful- looking creature in the sweetest of accents--"Haven''t you found any mice to kill to- day?
42332save repent,--and could repentance at so late an hour fit the laws of eternal justice?
42332she asked laughing,--such a delicious little low laugh--"Because I tell you the truth?
42332she cried--"Is this the prince''s idea?"
42332she demanded--"For my sake or your own?"
42332she exclaimed, laughing also,"Why, you do n''t suppose you can give any sort of big entertainment without them do you?
42332she murmured--"Have you a heart?
42332she rejoined, with a faint mocking smile--"And why, being made as I am, was I born an Earl''s daughter?
42332she repeated wonderingly--"Do I not know?
42332she said laughing--"Are they not pretty creatures?
42332she said quickly, her eyes flashing as she spoke--"My ideas have been repugnant to you, you say?
42332she said, surveying me critically--"Why, it''s simply splendid for you is n''t it?
42332what else did you expect?
42332what shall I say?"
