16608	Why not?
16608	Why, where was you and Keno?
16608	Will you let us know?
16608	Would n''t you rather I''d stay home and git the breakfast?
16608	Would you keep it, sure, and feed it to''em all the same?
16608	Y- e- s, but would it be just the tip- toppest, tippe- bob- royal of a place?
16608	Yes, what''s the little shaver''s name?
16608	You ai n''t goin''to hit the pie with your pick?
16608	You could n''t bring yourself to that?
16608	You do n''t mean, Jim, you found him jest a- settin''right in the bresh, with them dead jack- rabbits lyin''all''round?
16608	You do n''t really think he''d up and die?
16608	You do n''t s''pose mebbe he''s lost?
16608	You do n''t s''pose that Parky might have took him, out of spite?
16608	You do n''t think he''s sick?
16608	You got anything to say about the biz?
16608	You have to have lemon extract-- you know that?
16608	You''ll let me wrap him up real warm?
16608	Your little boy?
16608	And ai n''t that dolly nice?"
16608	And bein''undergrowed, why, how could he go on a rabbit- drive along with the Injuns?
16608	And you got left?"
16608	And you kin jest clear out o''my house, do you hear?
16608	Any one remember the words all straight?"
16608	Anyway, you''ai n''t yet told us his name, and how kin any little shaver walk which ai n''t got a name?"
16608	Are there any objections?
16608	Baby boy,"he said, in a gentle way of his own,"who is it makes everything?--who makes all the lovely things in the world?"
16608	Baby want anything else?"
16608	Contrary minded?
16608	Could n''t drink the coffee or go the beans?
16608	Could n''t you get me a horse?
16608	Did you want to go home and get some bread and milk?"
16608	Do you fellers think we''d ought to git up a party and take''em all to Fremont, as soon as they''re able to stand the trip?"
16608	Do you think you could put up with him-- and with me?"
16608	Does pardner want some breakfast?"
16608	He''ll be all right fer to- morrow?"
16608	How do you know?"
16608	How long do you think it will take you to put us in shape?"
16608	Injun, what''s your name?"
16608	Is these here over- halls your''n?"
16608	Jim said,"What do you s''pose he''s wearin''pants for, if he could n''t?"
16608	Jim, what you got to say''bout the subject?"
16608	Jim, wherever did you git him?"
16608	Now, the question is, what we goin''for to do?
16608	Now, then, all together--''Darling--''Why do n''t you all git in?"
16608	Say, you''ai n''t been left here for good?
16608	She''s all lit up, and the doors all shut to make it dark, and you bet she''s a gem-- a gorgeous gem-- ain''t she, fellers?"
16608	So you wo n''t bring him down this mornin''?"
16608	Suppose I call you Aborigineezer?
16608	That it?
16608	The teamster inquired,"Why do n''t Jim git any more grub?"
16608	Then Jim said,"Was it all the hair- oil I had?"
16608	There are stables where I can put up the horses, of course?"
16608	There seem to be no families, and that I can understand, for Bullionville is much the same; but where did you get the pretty little boy?"
16608	Time for breakfast?"
16608	Want to come with me and ride on the outside seat to Borealis?"
16608	What about the horse, Jim, if it starts to snow?"
16608	What did I do with my pick?"
16608	What do you say?
16608	What hymn do you fellows prefer?"
16608	What in mischief do you think you''re doin''here?"
16608	What was the good of digging here?
16608	What''s he got-- a rabbit?"
16608	What''s the matter with me and the pup?"
16608	Where could we have it?"
16608	Where do you s''pose he come from first?
16608	Where should he go, and how could he go, did he wish to leave?
16608	Which opening do all you fellers prefer?"
16608	Why could n''t the hill break open, anyhow, and show whether anything worth the having were contained in its bulk or not?
16608	Why do n''t you git up and cook your breakfast?"
16608	Would little Skeezucks like a train of cars?"
16608	You fellows are sure you ai n''t a- foolin''?"
16608	Young feller, where''d you come from, hey?
16608	cried Miss Doc, and, running forward, she threw her arm around his waist to keep him up, for she thought he must fall at every step,"He''s-- alive?"
16608	he would say, in his questioning little voice--"Bruvver Jim?"
16608	what do you think?"
34280	An''me an''the boys-- can they arrest oos?
34280	And Mr. Jones was a source of trouble and great embarrassment to her, was n''t he?
34280	And all your stocks in the name of rummies?
34280	And do you think the claim of intolerable cruelty is substantiated by a husband''s criticizing his wife''s dress?
34280	And he refused to sign it?
34280	And so it was your idea, Mr. Jones? 34280 And they drove you off by force?"
34280	And unless they do I owe you eight hundred dollars-- do you understand?
34280	And when and where were you married to him?
34280	And you also met Mr. Thomas on that same day, did you not?
34280	And you have always followed his advice?
34280	And you know that the railroad pays you more for that lease in a month than you agreed to give mother in a year?
34280	And you really left home to earn money in order to help support the Jones family, did n''t you?
34280	And you remember the date?
34280	And you saw him abuse his wife?
34280	And you tried to induce him to sign such an important document as that when he was drunk?
34280	And you were obliged to go without him?
34280	And you''re going to keep it for me?
34280	Are n''t you all tired out, dear?
34280	Are they going to pay cash?
34280	Are you all right, Bill?
34280	Are you all right?
34280	Are you counsel for the defense?
34280	Are you sure you had never met Miss Buckley or Mr. Thomas before? 34280 Are you trying a divorce case or are you making love?"
34280	At your old tricks, Lightnin''? 34280 Bane they arrest you for that?"
34280	Been arrestin''any one in California lately?
34280	Bill Jones,his wife persisted, her tones reverting to their former clear coldness,"did n''t your pension come to- day?"
34280	Bill Jones,she asked, in a loud, rasping tone,"where have you been?"
34280	Bill, I''m afraid you''ve been having a drink or two?
34280	Bill, was there a letter for you?
34280	Bill,she said, glancing down at the floor,"would you kiss me?"
34280	But after you were married he was cruel to you, was he not?
34280	But for why? 34280 But he was in the habit of coming home drunk, was n''t he?"
34280	But now-- how about yourself? 34280 But say, John, ai n''t you takin''some chances round here?
34280	But you know he had a gang of lumbermen there?
34280	Can you repeat one lie that Mr. Jones told you?
34280	Could n''t you do anything to them?
34280	Daddy has told you what I should say to you, has n''t he?
34280	Deed?
34280	Did Mr. Thomas,he asked,"give you this position because you told him you wanted to be of financial assistance to the Jones family?"
34280	Did n''t the railroad lease the waterfall from a bum concern called the Golden Gate Land Company? 34280 Did n''t you just testify that Mrs. Jones was the sole owner of that house?
34280	Did you ever see Mr. Jones drunk?
34280	Did you ever see Mrs. Jones''s husband drunk?
34280	Did you just get here, daddy?
34280	Did you know that he and Mrs. Davis were married to- day?
34280	Did you try to have him go with you?
34280	Died of fright, perhaps?
34280	Do n''t you approve, Lightnin''?
34280	Do n''t you know there''s some new boarders come?
34280	Do n''t you think you''d better tell me?
34280	Do n''t_ you_ think it would be best for me to go back, daddy?
34280	Do that land belong to the railroad?
34280	Do they all know he''s my husband?
34280	Do you expect me to stand for this?
34280	Do you know what time it is?
34280	Do you know where I can find John Marvin?
34280	Do you mean to say that you are not a member of the bar?
34280	Do you think I''m drunk?
34280	Do you think Marvin''ll be here to- day?
34280	Do you want me to tell you how much money you get out of the waterfall?
34280	Does our friend Bill know-- what we were talking about?
34280	Eh? 34280 Eh?"
34280	Friend of yours, John?
34280	Got a segar for me, Bill?
34280	Got a--?
34280	Got what?
34280	Hammond, eh? 34280 Have you had any supper, Bill?"
34280	Have you heard anything of daddy?
34280	Have you seen mother?
34280	Have you signed that deed yet?
34280	Have you signed that deed?
34280	Have you tried to see him?
34280	He deserted you, did he not?
34280	He sold some property for your mother, is n''t that it?
34280	He''s a fast driver, ai n''t he? 34280 Here, what you doing?"
34280	How can she know that? 34280 How could I?
34280	How dare you say that?
34280	How did Mr. Marvin manage to get it away from them?
34280	How did you guess it? 34280 How did you know about my getting the place back?"
34280	How do you do? 34280 How do you know?"
34280	How long you here for?
34280	How much do I owe you?
34280	How should I know the petty details of the railroad''s lease?
34280	How should_ you_ know?
34280	How''s everythin''in Nevada? 34280 How''s it goin''Lem?"
34280	How''s tricks? 34280 How-- What do you mean, daddy?"
34280	I got a right to ask''em again,''ai n''t I?
34280	I got it, did n''t I?
34280	I promised you, did n''t I?
34280	I sent''em, did n''t I? 34280 If he was on the railroad''s property, what did you have to do with it?"
34280	If you do n''t know whether he is drunk or not now, how did you know the other time when you saw him?
34280	In my place?
34280	In what way?
34280	Is Millie--?
34280	Is either o''you ladies gettin''a divorce?
34280	Is that so?
34280	Is that so?
34280	Is there anything I can do?
34280	It was not possible for you to get a good title to the property unless Mr. Jones signed the deed?
34280	John Marvin come back from the city to stay at his cabin?
34280	John, will you lend me two dollars?
34280	Just as we is? 34280 Law?"
34280	Lem thought of it, eh? 34280 Lennon,"he called to the clerk,"my clients can wait in there, ca n''t they?"
34280	Let''s see,he said, softly, to himself,"Mrs. Taft''s letter-- she''s in Number Four, ai n''t she?"
34280	Liked to hear about our waterfall, eh?
34280	Look here,Hammond called after him,"is Mr. Thomas in?"
34280	Looks kinder all polished up, do n''t he?
34280	Lucky?
34280	Me?
34280	Miss Buckley, you know that Mr. Jones loved his wife, loved her devotedly, do n''t you?
34280	Mother, ai n''t you cold?
34280	Mother,''tain''t you?
34280	Mr. Hammond,Bill went on,"when you went after Mr. Marvin with the sheriff, what was the charge against him?"
34280	Mr. Thomas,he asked,"have you finished with your witness?"
34280	Mrs. Davis, where do you live?
34280	Mrs. Davis,he called in gentle tones,"are you ready?"
34280	Now I am sure that if he felt that you and Miss Mildred were well provided--"Say, you''re kinder full of ideas yourself, ai n''t you?
34280	Now are you satisfied?
34280	Now you called Mr. Jones a liar, did n''t you?
34280	Now, up to the time you met Mr. Jones you did not know anything about him, did you?
34280	Oh, Lem,cried Mrs. Jones,"wo n''t you let me do the cooking?
34280	Oh, really?
34280	Oh, so you''re actually here, are you?
34280	Oh, where are they?
34280	Oh, you really have n''t heard?
34280	Oh, you runnin''the place now?
34280	Or perhaps you think you have beaten me to it, eh? 34280 Ours again?"
34280	Publication in what?
34280	Say, did you ever get the six dollars I sent you?
34280	See all them names,he asked,"Secretary of the Treasury, and all of''em?"
34280	Settin''Bull?
34280	Since that time, you have had dealings with Mrs. Jones, have you not?
34280	So you testified that he was a liar because you heard others say so?
34280	Something mysterious-- about Lightnin''?
34280	Stealing?
34280	Studyin''them books?
34280	Surely you know that the place is yours again?
34280	Thank you?
34280	That was three months before you bought mother''s place?
34280	That''s what you think, is it?
34280	The mail?
34280	Them brains o''yours is pickin''up a bit, ai n''t they, Zeb?
34280	Then I guess you''re working for him, ai n''t you?
34280	Then why do n''t you practise?
34280	Then you will withdraw the statement that he broke the law?
34280	Then, why did you say you had never met him until you met him at the hotel?
34280	Then, why,he asked, in measured tones,"is he appearing for you if he does not understand your case?"
34280	They''re human beings, ai n''t they? 34280 Thought what, daddy?"
34280	To help you?
34280	To- day?
34280	Trouble? 34280 Was he drunk then?"
34280	We got some more for you,''ai n''t we?
34280	We wo n''t have any more divorce people here, will we, Bill?
34280	Well, Lightnin'',Marvin exclaimed,"how did you get here and what in the world have you come for?"
34280	Well, Lightnin'',he questioned, in an indulgent voice,"how did you happen to show up here?"
34280	Well, Millie,he answered,"I''m here now, ai n''t I?
34280	Well, Miss Buckley,he asked,"Mr. Thomas has taken an interest in your affairs and given you advice?"
34280	Well, we parted--"After he deserted you?
34280	Well,Bill said, with that shrewd glance of his,"I ai n''t keepin''_ you_ from makin''a million dollars, am I?"
34280	Well?
34280	What did he tell you that was untrue?
34280	What did she say?
34280	What did you do with your wages?
34280	What do you know''bout bees?
34280	What do you mean, Bill?
34280	What happened to him?
34280	What is it?
34280	What is it?
34280	What is the matter, Millie?
34280	What lies back of what?
34280	What makes you say that? 34280 What makes you think that?"
34280	What o''that?
34280	What on earth do you mean, daddy?
34280	What party?
34280	What right have you to interfere?
34280	What was that, Lightnin''?
34280	What was the other business?
34280	What work have you been doin''?
34280	What you going to do, Lightnin''?
34280	What you think, Millie?
34280	What you want?
34280	What you''fraid of? 34280 What''s He got to do with it?"
34280	What''s the difference?
34280	What''s the idee, Lightnin''?
34280	What''s the matter, Zeb?
34280	What''s the matter, dear? 34280 What''s the matter?"
34280	What''s the reason I ai n''t?
34280	What''s the reason I wo n''t?
34280	What''s the reason you ca n''t?
34280	What?
34280	What_ you_ going to do?
34280	When did he go?
34280	When did he tell you all that?
34280	When did you buy it?
34280	When we goin''?
34280	When''s he coming back?
34280	Where are you going?
34280	Where did the money come from?
34280	Where did you disappear to after supper? 34280 Where else could I be?"
34280	Where will you be judge?
34280	Where you been all day?
34280	Where''ll you go?
34280	Where''s John?
34280	Where''s the bar?
34280	Where?
34280	Where?
34280	Who did you buy it from?
34280	Who do you think drove me over?
34280	Who employed you as a stenographer?
34280	Who might you be?
34280	Who was the thief?
34280	Who''s calling her that?
34280	Why ai n''t it?
34280	Why did n''t you speak to John before you left the court to- day?
34280	Why did n''t you tell me this before?
34280	Why did you leave home three years ago, Miss Buckley?
34280	Why do you allow yourself to be taken in this way? 34280 Why should two people be hitched together when they are pulling in different directions?
34280	Why, Blodgett, old boy, do n''t you know any more about law than to try to serve me with a Nevada warrant when I''m in the state of California?
34280	Why, were n''t you expecting me?
34280	Why, what do you know about it?
34280	Why?
34280	Will you allow me to introduce myself properly?
34280	Will you change five dollars for me?
34280	Will you please let me pass?
34280	Will you show me to my room?
34280	Will you try divorce cases?
34280	Would you like to register?
34280	Would you mind if I tacked up some of these in the lobby?
34280	Would you, Bill?
34280	Would your replies be the same?
34280	Ye like''em, do n''t you, Lem?
34280	Yer case ai n''t over yet, is it?
34280	Yes?
34280	Yes?
34280	You ai n''t crippled, be you? 34280 You also said he was cruel to his wife?"
34280	You are not ashamed of it, are you?
34280	You are the wife of Gerald Davis, are you not?
34280	You asked him to come over and see me?
34280	You call me liar?
34280	You can imagine a lot o''things, ca n''t you?
34280	You can prove them?
34280	You did_ what_?
34280	You do n''t mean to say you asked John Marvin to marry me?
34280	You do n''t mind my doing that, do you, Bill?
34280	You do n''t think I mean business, do you?
34280	You have seen him in that condition hundreds of times, have you not?
34280	You heard him tell lies?
34280	You know the railroad company leased the waterfall on mother''s place and put a power- plant there?
34280	You know where he is, do n''t you?
34280	You mean I get half of it?
34280	You mean the grounds on which the action is based?
34280	You mean the testimony he has already given will stand?
34280	You mean to call me a liar?
34280	You mean,she questioned,"that-- that you want us to leave at once?"
34280	You say, Mr. Hammond, that you had business dealings with Mrs. Jones? 34280 You sold the railroad the land he was trespassing on, did n''t you?"
34280	You testified that Mr. Jones was a drunkard and that you had never seen him sober?
34280	You were living in Peoria?
34280	You''re John Marvin, ai n''t you?
34280	You''ve forgiven me,''ai n''t you, Bill?
34280	You''ve got a bee in your bonnet,''ai n''t you?
34280	You''ve not given up the study of law, have you?
34280	Your Honor,he asked, in his usual drawl,"a defendant has the right to plead his own case, ai n''t he?"
34280	_ You_ are?
34280	Almost touching her hand with his, he said, softly,"You mean you do n''t love him?"
34280	Anybody at home know that you are here?"
34280	Are you crazy?"
34280	Are you sure you do n''t want that eight hundred now?"
34280	As she sat down, he smiled at Millie, addressing her,"Miss Buckley, will you take the stand, please?"
34280	As she withdrew hers with a giggle, he went on, unabashed,"Do you intend remaining here long?"
34280	As the clerk sat down, Bill looked up at the judge, asking,"Is that all?"
34280	Bill looked up at her, adding, complacently,"''Ai n''t I done a good piece of business?"
34280	Bill smiled at him and said, in his slow, gentle monotone:"You bought all that land of him and never saw him about it?"
34280	Blodgett gave Bill a mean look, sneering, as he sniffed at the air,"Say, you''re collecting something, ai n''t you?"
34280	But Zeb, answering the warning that had never failed him, stayed close to the door, whispering back to Bill,"Where''s your old woman?"
34280	But how?
34280	But, surely, you have heard of his hotel, have n''t you?"
34280	But-- why do you ask?"
34280	CHAPTER XVI As Bill made his way through the swinging gates, Blodgett put out a detaining arm, asking, with a scowl,"Here, what do_ you_ want?"
34280	Ca n''t you do anything about this fellow, this lawyer?
34280	Could it be that Millie was really in love with Raymond Thomas?
34280	Did he ever tell you about the duel I fought with Settin''Bull?"
34280	Did n''t you, actin''for the Golden Gate Company, put through the deal?
34280	Did you ever know Buffalo Bill?"
34280	Did you know that Blodgett''s here?
34280	Do n''t you remember us?"
34280	Do n''t you want the clerk to know we are married?"
34280	Do ye think Bill''ll think I''m getting crazy?"
34280	Do you mind telling the court what that business was?"
34280	Do you remember that, Mr. Hammond?
34280	Do you remember the exact date?"
34280	Do you think I''ve driven him away?"
34280	Do you want me to get out?
34280	Do you?"
34280	Going close to him, she demanded,"Bill, have you been drinkin''?"
34280	Harper shrugged his shoulders and smiled at Bill, continuing with his subject,"What''s the number of her room?"
34280	Has n''t daddy told you about it?"
34280	Have you got a room?"
34280	He arose and wandered toward her, exclaiming, as she came to meet him,"Why, mother, what are you doing here?"
34280	He did n''t know what to make of it all and he looked up at her, asking, with a chuckle:"What''s the matter, mother, you sick?"
34280	He drew away from her, asking, quickly,"What of it?"
34280	He grew red and shifted in his chair angrily, asking the judge:"Do I have to go all over that, your Honor?"
34280	He knows we sold another strip o''land last month for next to nothin''--""What''s that to him?"
34280	He leaned forward, his eyes searching hers as he questioned,"You like Mr. Thomas-- like him very much, do n''t you, Millie?"
34280	He turned and met her with the question,"Thomas told you that, did n''t he?"
34280	He''s arranged everything about selling the place, and there''s nothing more for him to stay--""You''re here, ai n''t you?"
34280	How are things going up at your place?
34280	How is everything?
34280	I asked him, if you would own up that you were wrong like mother did, would he give you another chance?"
34280	I suppose you have been out West here a long time?"
34280	I suppose you left Mr. Thomas all alone there on the veranda, did n''t you?
34280	If he is n''t in love with you, why is he plannin''for us to come and live in San Francisco?
34280	If mother can prove them things they read,"and he nodded toward the clerk,"she could get a divorce, could n''t she?"
34280	In all honesty you know that not one of these is the real reason that Mrs. Jones has asked for a divorce, do n''t you?"
34280	In desperation, her blushes showing under the heavy veil, she whispered, quaveringly,"Could I speak to you privately?"
34280	In his office in San Francisco, for instance?"
34280	Is that what you mean?"
34280	Jones?"
34280	Jones?"
34280	Jones?"
34280	Jones?"
34280	Jones?"
34280	Jones?"
34280	LISTENED ATTENTIVELY... HE TOOK IT FROM HIS POCKET, SAYING,"MILLIE, I WANT TO SHOW YOU SOMETHING"LIGHTNIN''CHAPTER I"Him?"
34280	LISTENED ATTENTIVELY]"Do n''t you think it''s enough?"
34280	Look here, do n''t the state line run plumb through the middle o''this house, so''s half of it is in California an''the other half in Nevada?
34280	Looking down at the floor, she asked,"Did you come alone, daddy?"
34280	Marvin grinned and continued,"Miss Buckley, you have never known Mr. Jones to be cruel or even unkind to his wife, have you?"
34280	Marvin looked him in the eye and said, slowly:"You had seen the records?"
34280	Marvin watched him, asking,"Did you tell her you were in the Soldiers''Home?"
34280	Marvin, happy to see the old Lightnin''behind the boast, smiled, asking him,"How did you know the trial was to- day?"
34280	Millie answered in the negative and Marvin prodded her further,"You have never seen him unkind to any one or anything, have you?"
34280	Millie, deeply concerned, came from behind the desk and went up to the older woman, questioning,"You do n''t suppose his pension has come?"
34280	Must I?"
34280	Now what sort of man are you and what nice little game is this you are playing?
34280	Obsequiously and with an easy laugh he extended a congratulatory hand to Townsend, while he remarked,"Quick work, eh, judge?"
34280	Of course my wife thought I bought it for Miss Robbins, and-- well, what''s the use of talking about it?"
34280	Or had he merely convinced her that his business motives were all that they should be?
34280	Peters?"
34280	Putting it back, she pouted,"You are not angry, are you, dear?"
34280	Say, what was the name o''that feller what acted as agent for the railroad an''bought your property from Thomas when he done you out of it?"
34280	Say, you ai n''t really goin''to git a divorce, are you?"
34280	Shall we try it, Millie?"
34280	So he dropped into the chair next to the sheriff, drawling,"You goin''over to Truckee to get a California warrant?"
34280	So you were in the war?"
34280	Still confused, and not yet quite getting the trend of the whole matter, he asked, in his quiet, disinterested way,"Who, me?"
34280	Taking a little square box from his pocket, he opened it and held it up to view, saying,"If you do n''t see him, what is he going to do with this?"
34280	That being so, how could Mr. Jones harbor a fugitive in his house, if he did n''t own a house?"
34280	The judge is a friend of yours, is n''t he?"
34280	Then Mrs. Davis asked,"Are you stopping here for pleasure or are you doing time?"
34280	Then he asked of Hammond, motioning with his head toward Bill,"Is he drunk now?"
34280	Then he called to Bill,"Did you tell your wife we were waiting for her?"
34280	Then, glancing up at the surprised and startled little woman, he asked,"Does your husband happen to drive a green automobile, ma''am?"
34280	They ca n''t help it if their hearts gets busted, can they?
34280	This divorce has got to be obtained to give him a deed to the Jones property, has n''t it?"
34280	Thomas?"
34280	Thomas?"
34280	Thomas?"
34280	Thomas?"
34280	To Bill he addressed the next question,"Is that what you asked about?"
34280	Townsend caught Bill''s question and asked,"What did you say?"
34280	Townsend studied Marvin intently for several moments and then he asked, quietly,"You are an attorney in good standing, are you not?"
34280	Townsend was not at all pleased with the attention Peters was showing her and he turned, asking, unctuously,"See here, have you got a suite?"
34280	Townsend?"
34280	Townsend?"
34280	Was he drunk when he refused to sign that deed?"
34280	Was n''t that just like him?"
34280	Was there any trouble?"
34280	Well, what''s the matter with makin''this house a hotel temporary for busted hearts what takes six months to cure?
34280	Well?"
34280	What are you doing out here all alone?"
34280	What do you mean by staying away from me all this time?
34280	What else did he say?"
34280	What time is it now?"
34280	What ye''fraid of?"
34280	What''s that?"
34280	What''s the rascal''s name?"
34280	What''s the trouble?"
34280	Where is he?"
34280	Where''re we hittin''fer?"
34280	Where''s your wife?"
34280	Why did you leave him, Millie?
34280	Why did you leave your husband in Chicago?"
34280	Why do n''t you write her a letter?
34280	Why should n''t I approve-- on account o''Millie, mother?"
34280	Will you answer my question?
34280	Will you let me carry the tray up- stairs for you?
34280	Will you?"
34280	You ai n''t tellin''''em you be goin''--not even your old woman, eh?"
34280	You had a row with your old woman?"
34280	You know well enough that Marvin''s stealing that timber, do n''t you?"
34280	You look kinder legal this morning?"
34280	You mean it, Lightnin''?"
34280	You remember the last promise what I give you?"
34280	You sent the greater part of your wages home, did you not?"
34280	You sure that''s all you want?"
34280	You wo n''t mind if we leave you to finish your cigar, Mr. Thomas, will you?"
34280	You''ll be up to- morrow, John?"
34280	You''re all filled up, I suppose?"
34280	You''re not going to sign that deed, are you, Lightnin''?"
34280	he shook his head wisely, adding, laughingly,"It''s that way?"
36423	A halo?
36423	A river?
36423	A schooner, did you say?
36423	Ai n''t dancing? 36423 Always a humorist, are n''t you?"
36423	And I caught him on the wing, too, did n''t I?
36423	And speaking of colts, did you ever know that sometimes a band of horses will take a great fancy to a frisky young colt?
36423	And that?
36423	And, why not?
36423	Anybody want to run a race?
36423	Anything encouraging?
36423	Anything left?
36423	Apples? 36423 Are n''t you glad I do n''t bet?"
36423	Are n''t you glad you did n''t eat it up back there in the hermit''s cave?
36423	Are the mares getting excited?
36423	Are the others with you?
36423	Are we allowed to rope if we get the chance?
36423	Are we turning off into the desert, did you say?
36423	Are you all right?
36423	Are you going out, Professor?
36423	Are you sure it''s a wild animal, Tad?
36423	As I said before, the pony went through a thin crust----"Yes, but Chunky-- what happened to him?
36423	As well as you can fight and throw a rope?
36423	At what?
36423	Bad one, is n''t it?
36423	Bud Thomas and the other cowboys are hunting wild horses for market, you know?
36423	But Chunky-- where''s Chunky? 36423 But I do n''t understand why they have come all the way across the desert to get into this range?"
36423	But how can they tell that, if we are unable to see either one of them weakening?
36423	But how will the buzzards know?
36423	But is my broncho going to lie here all day?
36423	But what about the Angel, eh? 36423 But what if there is n''t any sun-- what if the sky is clouded?"
36423	But where did he go?
36423	But your clothes? 36423 Ca n''t you see his toes hurt him?"
36423	Call that a stream?
36423	Can you walk all right, Chunky?
36423	Chunky shot at the animal and missed it, did n''t he?
36423	Chunky?
36423	Coffee?
36423	Cyclone, you mean?
36423	D- d- d- d- do you thi-- thi-- think they''re going to attack us?
36423	Did what?
36423	Did you ever notice how animals act before a big storm?
36423	Did you ever see a battle of this kind?
36423	Did you see me tumble him over?
36423	Did''oo hurt''oo little tootsie- wootsies?
36423	Do n''t want to join us, do you, kiddie?
36423	Do n''t we get any lunch?
36423	Do n''t you know what he shot?
36423	Do n''t you see it?
36423	Do n''t you want them, kiddie?
36423	Do we follow the same course when we next start?
36423	Do we take a rest at midday, guide?
36423	Do you always make a capture?
36423	Do you not think we had better wait a little while until it settles?
36423	Do you see that?
36423	Do you think Satan scented the others?
36423	Do you think he sees us?
36423	Do you think it is coming this way?
36423	Do you think we could catch one of these wild ones to take back East with us?
36423	Do you, Tad?
36423	Do-- do you think we could catch him?
36423	Drowned?
36423	Find any?
36423	Find anything?
36423	For goodness''sake, how much further have we to go?
36423	Forgotten what?
36423	Gale? 36423 Goodness me, what was that?"
36423	Got a cramp?
36423	Got anything to eat?
36423	Got anything to eat?
36423	Got anything to eat?
36423	Got money?
36423	Guide, where do you think we''ll find our belongings?
36423	Has it any particular meaning?
36423	Have I?
36423	Have n''t we enough water with us?
36423	Have you boys filled up?
36423	Have you found it?
36423	Here, what are you doing? 36423 Hold on; is this a story or a joke?"
36423	How about the Angel?
36423	How about the apples? 36423 How about the burros?"
36423	How about the ponies?
36423	How about you, Chunky?
36423	How are we going to get any water unless we dip it up with a spoon?
36423	How did it happen, kiddie?
36423	How did you get in here?
36423	How do they know a storm is coming, unless they can see it?
36423	How do we know?
36423	How do you know that?
36423	How do you know, Chunky? 36423 How do you know?"
36423	How do you like it, Chunky?
36423	How does the bread go?
36423	How far do we have to go do you think?
36423	How far is Eureka from here?
36423	How many of them was there?
36423	How many?
36423	How much?
36423	How would you like some coffee, sir?
36423	How?
36423	How?
36423	Hurt you any, Walt?
36423	Hurt you much, lad?
36423	I look like a piece of human sandpaper, do n''t I?
36423	I presume you want to get some clothes the first thing?
36423	I recall having heard of something of the kind in hot countries, and----"Is this a hot country?
36423	I suppose there is no water in sight yet?
36423	I suppose you know every foot of it-- in fact its every mood, do you not?
36423	I wonder if I ought to wake Mr. Parry? 36423 I wonder what has become of Chunky?"
36423	I''m burned alive? 36423 In the water?"
36423	In what?
36423	In where?
36423	Indeed?
36423	Is he killed, do you think?
36423	Is it difficult to catch them?
36423	Is it fit to drink?
36423	Is it the boys?
36423	Is that Master Tad''s mount?
36423	Is that a joke?
36423	Is that it, Master Stacy?
36423	Is the enemy yours?
36423	Is there another verse?
36423	Is there no town near here where we can get a fresh outfit? 36423 It would be a fine prize to take away with me, now would n''t it?"
36423	Know them?
36423	Know what that is?
36423	Know what you''ve found?
36423	Lost the stallions?
36423	May we take them back to camp and skin them?
36423	Me? 36423 Me?
36423	Moods, did you say? 36423 No signs yet?"
36423	Not afraid of that? 36423 Now what d''ye think of that, fellows?
36423	Now, are n''t you glad you did n''t lose the tootsie- wootsies?
36423	Now, who do you think''s got him, hey?
36423	Now, will you be good, Ned Rector?
36423	One went one way and the other another, did n''t he?
36423	Orders?
36423	Over your shoulder?
36423	Prospecting?
36423	S''pose you do n''t know how many there are in the band, eh, kiddie?
36423	Saving our lives?
36423	Say, Mr. Parry, are n''t you afraid this sunlight will spoil your complexion?
36423	Say, can you ride?
36423	Say, what''s that?
36423	Scared at what?
36423	See here, where are you taking me?
36423	See that nose?
36423	See that patch of ground whiter than the rest off there?
36423	See the brutes?
36423	Shall we get the guns?
36423	Shall we move?
36423	Shot?
36423	Show me?
36423	Sit down?
36423	Sun gone to your head, too, Chunky?
36423	Surely you do not object to that?
36423	Tad could hunt jack rabbits without a dog, could n''t he?
36423	That a dare?
36423	That-- that ring of light?
36423	The boys?
36423	The what?
36423	The-- the wild man-- say, Tad, he looks like a monkey, does n''t he?
36423	Then why not start at once?
36423	Then you want us to spread out, as it were, and cover all the territory about here?
36423	Then, if we''re so near, why not get out in the open, instead of floundering through these hills?
36423	They headed for the mesas, too?
36423	Think I want to get pancake feet?
36423	Think I''m a camel?
36423	Think he''ll try to catch the horse?
36423	Think the black can whip him?
36423	Think we''d better make our beds and turn in?
36423	Twister?
36423	Us? 36423 Want them-- want them?"
36423	Water? 36423 We saw one of them and the tracks of the rest----""Yes, we-- we-- we saw the white horse----""The Angel?"
36423	We wo n''t have no more rough house, leastwise till we get to the San Antone Range, eh?
36423	We''d get hungry, would n''t we?
36423	Weather-- weather?
36423	Well, how about that shade?
36423	Well, how many?
36423	Well?
36423	Were you here then?
36423	Wha-- what happened?
36423	Wha-- what happened?
36423	Wha-- what is it? 36423 Wha-- what was it?"
36423	What ails these bronchos?
36423	What are we to do for a camp- fire?
36423	What are you going to favor us with?
36423	What can have become of him?
36423	What did you want me to do with them?
36423	What do you know about barbed- wire fences?
36423	What do you mean?
36423	What do you propose doing? 36423 What do you say, Master Tad?"
36423	What has happened?
36423	What if we should fail to find any?
36423	What is it you were going to show Ned?
36423	What is it, kiddie?
36423	What is it? 36423 What is it?
36423	What is it? 36423 What is it?"
36423	What is it?
36423	What is it?
36423	What is it?
36423	What is it?
36423	What is it?
36423	What is it?
36423	What is that-- what does it mean, guide?
36423	What is the invitation?
36423	What kind of an animal was it?
36423	What kind of signs?
36423	What time do we start in the morning?
36423	What time do you think we shall see you back? 36423 What were they doing on the desert?"
36423	What you got in your mouth?
36423	What''ll we be doing here all the time?
36423	What''s all this disturbance about?
36423	What''s he doing? 36423 What''s that boy shooting so rapidly for?"
36423	What''s that disease they have down south?
36423	What''s that?
36423	What''s that?
36423	What''s that?
36423	What''s the matter with Ned and Chunky?
36423	What''s the matter with the weather?
36423	What''s the matter?
36423	What''s the name of the piece?
36423	What''s the trouble now?
36423	What''s the trouble, my lad?
36423	What''s the use in offering any opinions? 36423 What''s this?
36423	What, everything gone?
36423	What, horses? 36423 What, in my bare feet?"
36423	What, with the bunch howling like a pack of coyotes? 36423 What?"
36423	What?
36423	What?
36423	Whe-- when do we join them?
36423	When do you start your horse- hunt? 36423 Where are the other fellows?"
36423	Where are you, Chunky?
36423	Where are your companions, Mr. Rector? 36423 Where do the wild horses congregate?"
36423	Where is it, then?
36423	Where was it?
36423	Where you going?
36423	Where''ll we stay, then?
36423	Where''s my pants?
36423	Where''s the boss?
36423	Where''s the desert-- is that it?
36423	Where''s the sugar?
36423	Where''s the sugar?
36423	Where''s the water? 36423 Where''s the water?"
36423	Where? 36423 Where?
36423	Where?
36423	Where?
36423	Where?
36423	Which means that we go on?
36423	Which one?
36423	Who is going to shoot?
36423	Who, the horses?
36423	Why ca n''t they get him?
36423	Why ca n''t we all go up there and get a breath of fresh air? 36423 Why ca n''t we shoot at them?"
36423	Why did I not think to bring my rope?
36423	Why did they not remain on the other side where, I understand, there is plenty of forage?
36423	Why do n''t you laugh if you want to? 36423 Why do they do that?"
36423	Why do you call him that?
36423	Why does n''t he run?
36423	Why does n''t he? 36423 Why have you discontinued the shooting?"
36423	Why not fly? 36423 Why not keep on all day?"
36423	Why not, please?
36423	Why not? 36423 Why not?"
36423	Why not?
36423	Why to- morrow?
36423	Why?
36423	Wild horses?
36423	Will it be necessary for all of us to go?
36423	Will that be advisable?
36423	Will they fight?
36423	Will they fight?
36423	Yes, but how do you expect the boys to find their way hack?
36423	Yes, what was it?
36423	Yes, why do n''t you?
36423	Yes; but what if we do?
36423	Yes; can we help you?
36423	Yes; that''s what I''d like to know?
36423	Yes; what''s the matter?
36423	You boys think I have gone crazy, do n''t you? 36423 You do n''t mean that we are to drink that stuff, do you?"
36423	You have a watch, have you not?
36423	You here?
36423	You mean the-- the hook- worm disease?
36423	You mean they would spoil?
36423	You mean you think your broncho carried him off?
36423	You want me to hold the leader?
36423	You want water?
36423	You want water?
36423	You would n''t think there were so many pitfalls under this baked desert, would you?
36423	You-- you mean we have come upon the wild horses?
36423	You-- you want me to go on without you? 36423 A lion?
36423	Ai n''t I always thinking when I''m not asleep?"
36423	Ai n''t that right hospitable?"
36423	All he would have to do would be to look down?"
36423	Are you going to make camp?"
36423	But come here; I want to talk with you?"
36423	But tell me how I am going to get out of the sun?"
36423	But where are you going to get it?"
36423	By the way, have you seen anything of the other two?"
36423	CHAPTER II THE FIRST NIGHT IN CAMP"The desert?"
36423	CHAPTER IV THE CHARGE OF THE LIGHT BRIGADE"You are not going to ride into town in daylight, are you?"
36423	CHAPTER IX THE BOYS DISCOVER A RIVER"Where''s that river you were talking about?"
36423	CHAPTER X A COWBOY TAKES A HEADER"What is that?"
36423	Call the stuff we get out of the ground here water?"
36423	Chunky, help lead those bronchos to the water hole, will you?"
36423	Come here and have a drink of water----""Water?
36423	Did he say anything that gave you any clue?"
36423	Did n''t you hear him breathe when they rode in?"
36423	Did n''t you see them?"
36423	Did those boys take any food with them?"
36423	Did you get them?"
36423	Do n''t you hear it roar?
36423	Do n''t you see the river right there in front of you?"
36423	Do n''t you see what this trail means?"
36423	Do n''t you think so?"
36423	Do n''t you understand?
36423	Do you hear?"
36423	Do you see that haze settling down like a fog on the western horizon?"
36423	Do you see them?"
36423	Do you think so, Professor?"
36423	Do you think there''s anything wrong?"
36423	Do you want to pull him apart?"
36423	Does it taste good?"
36423	Eh, kiddie?
36423	Ever see a hoss fight?"
36423	Find us?
36423	Get him too, did you say?"
36423	Got anything to eat in your pocket?"
36423	Have n''t we?"
36423	Have you any idea where we are?"
36423	Have you any idea?"
36423	He''ll give you all the exercise you want----""Hey, Bud, ai n''t it''bout time we were moseying?"
36423	Hear that?"
36423	How did he save them?"
36423	How did you ever do it?"
36423	How did you get here?"
36423	How did you happen to come up?"
36423	How in the world did it happen?"
36423	How long before we shall strike the range where we are to join them?"
36423	Hungry, any of you?"
36423	I do n''t see any water?"
36423	I guess the bunch of horse- hunters made quite a hole in our fodder, did n''t they?"
36423	I presume that''s the purpose of your visit here?"
36423	I presume want something to eat first, do n''t you?"
36423	I shall have to give you up----""What do you think has become of those ponies?"
36423	I suppose there is more or less peril in these wild hunts?"
36423	I take it, you boys would not care to be without water?"
36423	I think, Chunky, that we can both work to better advantage if we separate----""What, you want to get rid of me so soon?"
36423	I thought they were with you a moment ago?"
36423	I wonder if he''s a hermit?
36423	I''ll ask how?
36423	Is n''t that matter enough?"
36423	Is n''t the bacon all right?"
36423	Is that it?"
36423	Know the Nevada Desert?
36423	Master Stacy, will you run to the camp and bring the folding buckets?
36423	Ned, will you and Walt fix something for the boys to eat?
36423	Now would n''t it be fine to have a rainstorm?"
36423	Now, Masters Tad and Ned, you understand what you are to do?"
36423	Parry?"
36423	Parry?"
36423	Parry?"
36423	Parry?"
36423	Parry?"
36423	Parry?"
36423	Parry?"
36423	Parry?"
36423	Parry?"
36423	Parry?"
36423	Parry?"
36423	Parry?"
36423	Parry?"
36423	Please tell me where I can find some?"
36423	Rector?"
36423	Say, got the trail on your side there?
36423	See that dark hole?"
36423	See this trail?"
36423	Shall I take your rifle, Chunky?
36423	Stevens?"
36423	Stevens?"
36423	Stop that, will you?"
36423	Tell me how you got here?
36423	That is, if you can find the way?"
36423	There are none here?"
36423	Think I could let you boys go off with a couple of guns to hunt wild animals?
36423	Think I hurt the floor when I hit it, Tad?"
36423	Understand?"
36423	Want me to leave you here to-- Say, Tad, do you think I''m that kind of a coyote?
36423	Want some water?
36423	Water?
36423	Water?"
36423	We----""Say, Professor, who''s running this side show?"
36423	Were you there, too?"
36423	What are they going to do?"
36423	What are you trying to do?"
36423	What did you have them off for?"
36423	What do you know''bout it?
36423	What do you say, Tad?"
36423	What do you think the hermit intends to do?
36423	What does it mean?"
36423	What else could it be?"
36423	What is it?"
36423	What is it?"
36423	What of that?"
36423	What on earth have you got your clothes off for?"
36423	What time is it?"
36423	What''s that?
36423	What''s the answer?"
36423	What''s the matter?"
36423	What''s this?"
36423	When you going to join us, Parry?"
36423	Where did you leave them?"
36423	Where do you want to race to?"
36423	Where you headed?"
36423	Where''d you get them?"
36423	Where''s the camp?"
36423	Where''s the kiddie?
36423	Where?"
36423	Where?"
36423	Which was it?"
36423	Who ever heard of such a thing?"
36423	Why did n''t we think to bring a camera with us?"
36423	Why do n''t you go on and win the race?"
36423	Why not?"
36423	You mean you''re going to let us help you?"
36423	You saw him master the bucker the other day in the mountains?"
36423	You say they were howling and woke you up?"
36423	You will notice, by examining these hoofprints carefully, that the weight of the animal is thrown more on the toe----""How do you know that?"
36423	You''re the little coyote what roped my pony and plunked me into the street back in Eureka, ai n''t you?"
12777	A pipe?
12777	A rattlesnake?
12777	Am I to take that stuff and dump it down the ravine?
12777	And for what are we fighting?
12777	And how could we find a rattler--_here_? 12777 And plenty of papers to go with it?"
12777	And then they gave you the tobacco for cigarettes, did they?
12777	And what will you be doing?
12777	And where are our tents and the other stuff?
12777	And you did n''t believe them?
12777	And you told them-----?
12777	And you''re leaving the coast clear for that purpose?
12777	And you''re with us, Ferrers?
12777	Any color today?
12777	Any real excitement going on?
12777	Anything up?
12777	Are the tents gone?
12777	Are you a baby?
12777	Are you a doctor?
12777	Are you afraid of snakes, Alf?
12777	Are you at the bottom of the shaft, sir?
12777	Are you going down now, sir?
12777	Are you going to get away from here?
12777	Are you going to leave our camp?
12777	Are you going to let the scoundrel start?
12777	Are you going to pack the charge?
12777	Are you leaving anything to eat?
12777	Are you miners--- or machinists?
12777	Are you still hearing the snakes? 12777 Are you?"
12777	Armed?
12777	At your age? 12777 But do n''t you hear the rattlesnake?"
12777	But do you feel differently, Tom?
12777	But how did that mine come to be there?
12777	But how did you come to be on hand, Leon?
12777	But how did you guess, Tom?
12777	But if some one should?
12777	But let me ask you men,continued Tom, facing the quartette,"do you claim that you ever made legal entry of your asserted title here?"
12777	But suppose Dolph Gage and his crew come over here, and you''re not armed?
12777	But the work? 12777 But what are you going to do when the men who have a grudge against you pack guns?"
12777	But who got behind you and scared you in that fashion?
12777	But why did you follow me?
12777	But you did n''t"What if some one comes now?
12777	But, just the same, you have n''t my faith in the mine, have you?
12777	By the way, sir,suggested Tom,"you are not going to use all of your men today?"
12777	Ca n''t we arbitrate?
12777	Ca n''t you use some of my muscle in helping you to loot our camp?
12777	Can you make a noise by grinding your molars together--- your grinding teeth? 12777 Cigarettes?
12777	Could n''t you get hold of an engineer at Dugout?
12777	Daylight? 12777 Did n''t I state that Dolph Gage shot him?"
12777	Did n''t it occur to you to wonder where Mr. Hazelton was?
12777	Did n''t that fellow kill my brother in a brawl?
12777	Did n''t you hear that?
12777	Did ye--- did ye kill''em for us, Dolph?
12777	Did you ever hear of''square gamblers''?
12777	Did you hear my advice?
12777	Did you really get a button?
12777	Did you see us?
12777	Did you think I was going to run into danger?
12777	Did you think, Jim, that we had never earned any money?
12777	Did you, Harry?
12777	Did you, Leon?
12777	Did--- I get--- lost?
12777	Do I get the makings?
12777	Do n''t happen to want a cigarette, either, do you?
12777	Do n''t you s''pose I know rattlers when I hear''em?
12777	Do you believe yourself to be so valuable that any one will want to steal you?
12777	Do you expect me to believe any such fairy tales as that?
12777	Do you know Jim? 12777 Do you know him?"
12777	Do you miss anything?
12777	Do you often see a finer lump than this?
12777	Do you really want to work for Dunlop?
12777	Do you steal food, too?
12777	Do you tell me, on your sacred honor,proposed Alf,"that you have n''t heard a single rattler this afternoon?"
12777	Do you think he''s going to die, Jim?
12777	Do you think it a good plan to take up the invitation of these gentlemen, Timmins?
12777	Do you think you look as healthy as I do?
12777	Do you want me to tell you, sir?
12777	Does it really sound like the click of a rattler?
12777	Does it? 12777 Does the vein run with the top of the ridge?"
12777	Doing anything?
12777	Drew, do you think you look as healthy as I do?
12777	Dynamite?
12777	Eh?
12777	Eh?
12777	Encourage us?
12777	Fair fight?
12777	Father, why ca n''t you come out of this wild country? 12777 Ferrers, do you know what ails this boy?"
12777	Fifty dollars?
12777	Fine, is n''t it?
12777	Fine, is n''t it?
12777	For nothing, boss?
12777	For that reason, are n''t we doubly wasting our time here?
12777	For what reason?
12777	For what?
12777	From the camp?
12777	Getting anything out of those ore- tests of yesterday''s dump?
12777	Going after the guns, now?
12777	Going prospecting?
12777	Going to get back?
12777	Good pulse, eh?
12777	Got a sliver in your hand?
12777	Got any shooting irons about you?
12777	Got the makings?
12777	Got what?
12777	Harry, what''s our office address? 12777 Has he asked for me?"
12777	Has it been prospected, sir?
12777	Has n''t he pot- shotted at me? 12777 Have I?"
12777	Have we?
12777	Have you any such paper to show us?
12777	Have you been inspecting the dump as the stuff came up?
12777	Have you looked at the sky?
12777	Hear that snake?
12777	Heard a new one?
12777	Heard o''Bald Knob?
12777	Hiding here--- with the officers looking for you?
12777	Him? 12777 How about that?"
12777	How did that happen?
12777	How did they come to be here?
12777	How do you do the trick, anyway?
12777	How do you know we have n''t?
12777	How do you know?
12777	How much do you figure there is in the dump?
12777	How much is it worth, boss?
12777	How much ore did you take it from?
12777	How much tobacco have you?
12777	How much will you young men want?
12777	How soon do you begin operations?
12777	How?
12777	Hunter,Tom asked,"are you good for going down a hundred feet or so on a knotted rope?"
12777	I s''pose you''re going to take some of the boys over with us, in case Gage tries to put up any shooting bluff?
12777	I see it does?
12777	I wonder if Ferrers can get back tonight?
12777	I wonder, Tom, if we''d better get out and hustle for Jobs?
12777	I''d get some lumber together, and make a pair of skis,suggested Jim, the next day,"but what is the use?
12777	I? 12777 I?
12777	If we left a paying mine, Jim, what would we want?
12777	If you go out to look for him, you''re not going armed, are you?
12777	In what line?
12777	Is Dolph Gage hunting it?
12777	Is Mr. Ferrers going to Dugout City?
12777	Is he?
12777	Is it as bad as that?
12777	Is it going to be cold enough to put a crust on the snow?
12777	Is it magic, Jim?
12777	Is that Pringle''s own signature?
12777	Is that the way you fight, you young cub?
12777	Is that your partner''s name?
12777	Is the pain severe, Harry?
12777	Is there that much money on the Indian Smoke?
12777	It does look rather poor, does n''t it, Harry?
12777	It was in the mine, sir, was n''t it?
12777	It''ll make his fever worse, wo n''t it?
12777	It''s none of my business, as I very well know, but may I inquire what all this trouble is about?
12777	Jim,called Tom, as he ran toward their mining party,"have you any idea what''s wrong with the Gage crowd?"
12777	Just so you can find a store where you can buy cigarettes?
12777	Just that,nodded the cook,"we had trouble, once, and you came out on top, did n''t you?"
12777	Just what are you up to? 12777 Just what kind of excitement?"
12777	Lad, do n''t you know that I''ve been all over this country with old- time prospectors? 12777 Lead at twelve cents a pound?
12777	Leon,Tom demanded,"what have you been doing to that poor little shrimp of a helper?"
12777	Lost your money in your claim, have n''t you?
12777	May I ask, Tom, what you''re up to, anyway?
12777	May I stay here?
12777	Mining engineers?
12777	Mining what?
12777	Mining?
12777	Mr. Hazelton in here?
12777	Mr. Reade, shall we try to pick up a trail and follow it?
12777	Notice how still the air is? 12777 Now I can go, ca n''t I?"
12777	Now, Harry, is that all you know about me?
12777	Now, are you going to stand aside?
12777	Now, then, Gage, do you claim that this strip has been claimed by one, Pringle?
12777	Now, what do you want us to do?
12777	Now, what''s the matter with you?
12777	Oh, what''s the use?
12777	On the capital that we have left?
12777	On the other hand, you have n''t engaged us, either"Wo n''t you keep the matter open until our return?
12777	Or does our vein run in scattered pockets?
12777	Outfit the camp liberally?
12777	Read?
12777	Say, do n''t you carry the makings?
12777	Say, how many years you been smoking, Jim Ferrers?
12777	Say, what was that big explosion?
12777	Say, wo n''t you take me with you?
12777	Smoke, is it? 12777 So Jim Ferrers is over in your camp, is he?"
12777	So that the law would say that Gage fired in self- defense, eh?
12777	So you think that, when men see you smoking cigarettes, they immediately imagine you to be one of them? 12777 So you think you can come here and take it from us, do you?"
12777	So you were hanging about, ready to back up the kid?
12777	So you''ve got the''makings,''have you?
12777	So, my bright little hero, you sold us out for a toy bale of cigarettes, did you?
12777	Some trick about that rattling?
12777	Tell you something straight?
12777	That seems like a foolish risk, does n''t it?
12777	That wo n''t last us long, will it?
12777	The fighting risk?
12777	The street corner where you''re to find the money, eh, Jim?
12777	The wires?
12777	Their bill would be a claim against our mine would n''t it?
12777	Then can you stay a few days?
12777	Then had n''t we better get out of it early, and go to work for some one who pays wages?
12777	Then the killing came about through the bad practice of carrying a revolver?
12777	Then there''s no reason, Jim, under mining customs, why we should n''t ride over there and stake out that claim?
12777	Then this is where you are?
12777	Then what did you come up for?
12777	Then why are we fooling around here? 12777 Then why does n''t he get better?"
12777	Then you have n''t engaged any engineer?
12777	Then you were at their camp?
12777	Then you wo n''t be sociable?
12777	Then you''ll come over to our camp, right away?
12777	Then you''re not coming over to our place?
12777	Then--- what?
12777	There are no more men to your crowd?
12777	There, did n''t you hear it?
12777	They are?
12777	They do n''t, eh?
12777	They were guessing the size of Ferrers''s army, were they?
12777	Those little chances go with being involved in a Nevada mining dispute, do n''t they?
12777	Those men over there?
12777	Tim, do you know anything about temperatures and drugs?
12777	Tim, have you ever had any practice in looking after sick people?
12777	Tim, what does this treachery mean?
12777	Tim, what shall I do next?
12777	Today''s send- up, then?
12777	Tom, how are we going to spend the money when we get it?
12777	Tom, who''s going to take the first trick of watch tonight?
12777	Tom, you everlasting joker, what happened?
12777	Too late? 12777 Want me?"
12777	Want the team yet?
12777	Wanter know?
12777	Was that all right, Tim?
12777	Was your brother killed?
12777	We ran up against one of that brood in Arizona, eh, Harry?
12777	Well, I-----"What did the men want to know about?
12777	Well, are n''t you three working for your living, too?
12777	Well, from one of four men, then? 12777 Well, sir?"
12777	Well, we shall have Dolph Gage and his crowd to guard against, wo n''t we?
12777	Well, what could be a safer place than right where we''re wanted?
12777	Well?
12777	What am I going to do, then?
12777	What are you going to call it?
12777	What are you going to do with the cartridges, though?
12777	What are you going to do with these guns, then?
12777	What are you going to do, Tom?
12777	What are you running so fast for, Harry?
12777	What are you talking about?
12777	What brings you in this section again?
12777	What did you do to please the four men?
12777	What did you tell them, then?
12777	What do we really want with fortunes?
12777	What do we want such a thing as that for?
12777	What do you mean?
12777	What do you say, Hazelton?
12777	What do you smoke then?
12777	What do you think about it?
12777	What do you think about it?
12777	What do you think of the sky?
12777	What do you want to do that for?
12777	What do you want?
12777	What for? 12777 What for?"
12777	What for?
12777	What has a baby to do with a''new one''?
12777	What has been the trouble, doc?
12777	What is it?
12777	What kinds?
12777	What on earth are you talking about?
12777	What on earth is he doing, anyway?
12777	What on earth is the matter, mosquito?
12777	What shall we call the claim?
12777	What was it?
12777	What was the racket?
12777	What''ll the feller pay me in?
12777	What''s the game here, Tom?
12777	What''s the matter, boss?
12777	What''s the matter, youngster?
12777	What''s the matter?
12777	What''s the need of waiting?
12777	What''s the use of a strong young fellow like him dying?
12777	What''s this?
12777	What''s to be done?
12777	What''s your idea of an optimist, anyway?
12777	What? 12777 What?"
12777	What?
12777	What?
12777	When?
12777	Where are the rest of your men?
12777	Where are we going to get any?
12777	Where are you going to find any?
12777	Where are you going to set the stuff off?
12777	Where are you going, Tim?
12777	Where be you, Dolph?
12777	Where can we begin to look?
12777	Where did you get it?
12777	Where did you leave the little fellow, Jim?
12777	Where does it hurt you most, chum?
12777	Where is Pringle?
12777	Where is the stuff now?
12777	Where is your camp?
12777	Where on earth can Harry be?
12777	Where''s Harry?
12777	Who are you, anyway?
12777	Who are you?
12777	Who is he, and how did he become bald?
12777	Who''s going to prowl?
12777	Who''s having Fourth of July around here?
12777	Who''s that coming?
12777	Who''s the very smart man that''s looking after your friend?
12777	Whose boss?
12777	Why are you trying to sneak away before your work is finished?
12777	Why did n''t the law take up Gage''s case when your brother was killed?
12777	Why did n''t you call me before, Tom?
12777	Why did you ever take up smoking?
12777	Why did you fire on those men without provocation?
12777	Why do n''t you go up, with my message, Hunter?
12777	Why do n''t you look the stuff over?
12777	Why not?
12777	Why not?
12777	Why on earth are you leaving the camp at that fellow''s mercy?
12777	Why on earth did n''t you tell me that before?
12777	Why should we blow ourselves up? 12777 Why will you be so foolish--- so nervous?
12777	Why, Reade?
12777	Why, how does that happen?
12777	Why?
12777	Why?
12777	Why?
12777	Will you call me in an hour, if I lie down?
12777	Will you look after the wood, Harry?
12777	Will you people try to keep an eye over the claim while I''m gone?
12777	Wo n''t need to work much longer?
12777	Would fanning the crucibles with my hat do any good?
12777	Would seventy- five dollars a month for each of you be satisfactory?
12777	Yes; but-----"Are you so little of an engineer that you do n''t know a_ mine_ when you see one, Harry?
12777	Yes?
12777	Yes?
12777	You advise me to forget that he shot at me?
12777	You are?
12777	You began poisoning yourself at the age of thirteen, and you''ve lived a whole year? 12777 You do n''t believe Gage will try to attack us on the way?"
12777	You do n''t suppose it''s pneumonia?
12777	You got even by placing me under a great obligation?
12777	You got it from four men?
12777	You have n''t any doubts about getting the gold, have you?
12777	You have n''t found the claim yet, then?
12777	You have?
12777	You have?
12777	You heard what I said, did n''t you?
12777	You know where to find the corner of Palace Avenue and Mission Street?
12777	You must know something about ore and croppings, and the like, Jim? 12777 You said that before; but what''s up?"
12777	You said you''d pay me five dollars a month and find me in everything, did n''t you?
12777	You saw for yourself, did n''t you?
12777	You''ll call me in an hour?
12777	You''re an honest man, are n''t you, Jim?
12777	You''re feeling better, now, are n''t you?
12777	You''re going to stop him?
12777	You''re not going to bounce me, are you?
12777	You''re not threatening me with your pistol, are you?
12777	You''re obeying him by leaving the claim, are n''t you?
12777	Your wha- a- at?
12777	And did n''t he do it again this afternoon?"
12777	And say, will he hand me the lead out of an automatic gun?"
12777	As soon as Tom found a chance he asked Dr. Scott:"Will a little excitement of the happiest kind hurt Hazelton any?"
12777	But how about the assays for gold and silver?
12777	But say, how did that assay read?"
12777	But the enemy?"
12777	But, as I understand the affair, if your brother had n''t been carrying a pistol he would n''t have been killed?"
12777	But--- why, where is the child?"
12777	By the way, Jim, where is Alf?"
12777	CHAPTER VIII JIM FERRERS, PARTNER"You mean it, do you?"
12777	Can you pick up at least six real miners at Dugout City?"
12777	Conclusion CHAPTER I ALF AND HIS"MAKINGS OF MANHOOD""Say, got the makings?"
12777	Do I make myself plain?"
12777	Do n''t you know that?"
12777	Do n''t you see?"
12777	Do n''t you want to get into the real--- the big performances of our profession?"
12777	Do n''t you want to spell me a bit out there, Tom?
12777	Do you begin to see, Jim Ferrers, where you come in?
12777	Do you forget that he carries a rifle?"
12777	Do you know a man anywhere who''d use us more honestly than you would?"
12777	Do you know what really ails him?
12777	Do you think I''ve waited, Reade, all these years to find a partner like you, and then allow him to go off in a blizzard that would sure finish him?"
12777	Do you understand?"
12777	Dunlop?"
12777	Dunlop?"
12777	Find it all reg''lar, too, do n''t you?"
12777	Fool with Gage?"
12777	Harry, do n''t you long to do some of the big things that are done by engineers?
12777	Have you?"
12777	Hazelton?"
12777	How did it figger?"
12777	How do you do the trick?"
12777	How long have you been smoking, Drew?"
12777	How much money have we now, Tom?"
12777	How old do you take us to be?"
12777	I guess I''d better write down some of these instructions, had n''t I?"
12777	I suppose you would be willing to let this matter remain open for a few days?"
12777	I wonder what the trouble can be?"
12777	If you do n''t want us to cheer, then what shall we do?"
12777	In other words, why do you destroy your five senses with cigarettes in this fashion?"
12777	Is he out in this storm?"
12777	Is that all, Mr. Reade?
12777	Is the money that you may make out here worth all the risk?"
12777	It was Dolph Gage, or one of his rascals, was n''t it?"
12777	It was Reade''s turn to ask:"Why?"
12777	Jim, do you know anything about the use of the medicines in this chest?"
12777	Jim, this snow- crust will bear the weight of a pony, wo n''t it?"
12777	Jim, you''ve prospected a bit, have n''t you?"
12777	Manly?"
12777	Mr. Dunlop--- I believe that is your name, sir?"
12777	Now, what do you say?"
12777	Now, where did they take our tents and the other stuff?"
12777	Now, you must have noticed that most of the outcropping rock around here is of a very refractory kind?"
12777	Oh, why did n''t I hear about Walsh earlier?"
12777	Reade demanded in pretended surprise,"with nearly all the ground in Nevada at your disposal?"
12777	Reade?"
12777	Reade?"
12777	Reade?"
12777	Reade?"
12777	Reade?"
12777	Reade?"
12777	Rest?
12777	Say, friend, how did that assay come out?"
12777	See here--- Reade''s your name, is n''t it?"
12777	Shall we hustle after our property?"
12777	That''s it, it?"
12777	There are laws in this state, are n''t there?"
12777	Though the men worked an hour overtime they did not succeed in sending up any more ore."Just one pocket?"
12777	To stand guard?"
12777	Tom glanced at his chum, then answered, slowly:"I''m sorry, Mr. Dunlop, sorry indeed, if-----""What are you trying to say?"
12777	Too cold out there?"
12777	Understand?"
12777	Want another pellet?"
12777	We''ll-----""Neighbors?"
12777	What are we going to do with it--- if we get it?"
12777	What are you talking about, Reade?
12777	What could you do to save me if I lost my hold and fell?"
12777	What did you do for the four men?"
12777	What do you say, Jim?"
12777	What do you want anyway?"
12777	What''ll they do to me now, I wonder?"
12777	What''s in there?"
12777	What''s the matter?
12777	Where are our assistant engineers--- where our draftsmen?
12777	Where are our foremen that we could summon to great undertakings?
12777	Where did you get it?"
12777	Where do you expect to wind up with your''makings''and your cigarettes?"
12777	Where is the costly equipment that we would need as a firm of really great engineers?
12777	Where''s your claim?"
12777	Why ca n''t I sleep on the other cot in this tent?"
12777	Why did the men chase you out of their shack?"
12777	Why not?"
12777	Why?"
12777	Will you have breakfast with us, sir?"
12777	Will you kindly introduce your friends?"
12777	Wo n''t it give you more satisfaction to feel that you''ve put Gage day for his bread and water?
12777	Yes, it would be like you to put me into danger and to leave yourself out of it, would n''t it?"
12777	Yet have you men any idea a how little chance we may have of striking that vein?
12777	You know the map of Dugout, do n''t you?"
12777	You will probably motor back to Dugout tomorrow morning, wo n''t you?"
12777	You''ve got to stop it after this; do you understand?"
12777	_ You_ ask me to do it, sir?
20332	''Cause there''s a puddle of water in that hollow rock and unless it had rained, how would it get there?
20332	A break?
20332	A joke? 20332 Addressed to mamma,"said Mercedes,"Do you suppose Janie really went to the post- office all alone?"
20332	Ai n''t that the worst luck?
20332	Ai n''t the robbers in jail?
20332	Ai n''t this a sure- enough shaft?
20332	And did you_ really_ get over it?
20332	And eat all the candy ourselves?
20332	And pay ten dollars a day for it?
20332	And tat-- tell about last night?
20332	And tell stories?
20332	And what_ did_ they say?
20332	And you found one, did you?
20332	And you think I''ll stick my_ tongue_ in_ that_?
20332	And you, my other daughter?
20332	Are you anywhere near ready? 20332 Are you going to let them come?"
20332	Are you hurt?
20332	Are you ready to promise to behave yourself from now on?
20332	Are you sorry?
20332	Aw, what do you s''pose I care where you are going?
20332	Before Billiard comes up?
20332	Billy goat, Billy goat, where have you been?
20332	But how can they, with papa hurt and mamma gone?
20332	But how shall we get him to the-- police?
20332	But how?
20332	But what do you s''pose the_ sheriff_ wants us for?
20332	But what is it all about?
20332	But what shall you-- we do with them? 20332 But, Kitty, what does it mean?"
20332	But-- but-- what about your father? 20332 But-- how can you?"
20332	By the way, who lives in that little, unpainted house on the edge of town?
20332	Ca n''t we go, Tabitha? 20332 Ca n''t we have some cake, too?
20332	Ca n''t we hire a team from the stables?
20332	Ca n''t, eh? 20332 Can they be in bed already?"
20332	Can you crawl through?
20332	Cold cream?
20332	Could n''t you get anyone? 20332 Could we?"
20332	Dad, Uncle Decker, is n''t that a baby coyote?
20332	Did n''t I tell you so?
20332	Did n''t we tell you he was here?
20332	Did n''t you hear the whistle blow?
20332	Did n''t you miss it?
20332	Did she ever say you_ could n''t_ go?
20332	Did you ever have an Uncle Jerry?
20332	Did you ever see a bunch of children who could do the disappearing act as quickly or as completely as the tribe of McKittrick? 20332 Did you ever see a lonesomer place on earth than the Silver Bow graveyard?"
20332	Did you have any mishaps? 20332 Did you put that stuff on your face?"
20332	Did you think we wanted to go for a forty- mile auto ride on empty stomachs? 20332 Did you?
20332	Do I know any of them?
20332	Do n''t we know the Goodales well? 20332 Do n''t you wish you knew?"
20332	Do they make much money?
20332	Do they put her in the wheelbarrow, too?
20332	Do you consider yourself acquainted with Gwynne and me?
20332	Do you get there by boat?
20332	Do you know how to make taffy?
20332	Do you know that, Gloriana Holliday?
20332	Do you mean that, or are you joking?
20332	Do you really think they''d write to Uncle Hogan?
20332	Do you s''pose they really make castor oil out of these? 20332 Do you take it back?"
20332	Do you think I''m lying?
20332	Do you think Tabitha knows we did it?
20332	Do you truly like this-- this desolate place now?
20332	Do you want to go to jail?
20332	Do, huh?
20332	Dodge? 20332 For how long?"
20332	Get much?
20332	Girl?
20332	Glory, are you hurt?
20332	Go to sleep, ca n''t you? 20332 Got any matches?"
20332	Grace Tilton, Bessie Jorris, Jessie Wayne, Julia, Chrystie--_is_ Chrystie there?
20332	Has the doctor been to see your father this morning?
20332	Have n''t I been counting every minute,--yes, every second for the past twenty- four hours?
20332	Have we been wrestling with those children so long?
20332	Honest Injun?
20332	How can I ever thank you? 20332 How could it have happened?"
20332	How deep is a shaft?
20332	How did she tumble off the platform? 20332 How did the other machines manage to come along behind us and never find it?"
20332	How did you hear that?
20332	How do you know?
20332	How in the world will we ever get them up?
20332	How long has the bunch been at Avalon? 20332 How old are they?"
20332	How?
20332	How_ are_ we to make him mind, then? 20332 I am afraid-- we are not apt-- to----""To what?"
20332	I do n''t blame them,began Gloriana impetuously; then blushed furiously, and stammered,"Oh, what did I say?
20332	I mean how often does it come?
20332	I suppose five hundred silver headed eagles means five hundred dollars, but what is that about getting rich?
20332	I''d buy-- I''d buy-- what_ would_ I buy? 20332 I-- I-- really, I forgot----""Forgot what?"
20332	I-- we-- had we better try it alone?
20332	If sixty horse power wo n''t budge the thing, do you suppose man''s puny strength will?
20332	Inside?
20332	Is it a real bucket?
20332	Is it_ really_ a river? 20332 Is n''t he cute?
20332	Is n''t that fine?
20332	Is n''t this the worst luck you ever heard of?
20332	Is that all?
20332	Is that it, Kitty? 20332 Is that the man?"
20332	It is n''t very awe- inspiring now, is it? 20332 It''s all Myra''s fault,"began Vera plaintively, but Myra, fearful that she was about to be betrayed, hastily asked,"Where is the dinner, Dad?
20332	Knew how to make it?
20332	Like a water bucket?
20332	Like they make castor oil of?
20332	Mud?
20332	Not tell?
20332	Oh, dear, why ca n''t I be good?
20332	Oh, did n''t they look funny hanging onto that rope? 20332 Or did your mother?"
20332	Or do you want some more?
20332	Our father let you-- us, I mean?
20332	Provoking? 20332 Ran away?"
20332	Really?
20332	Safe?
20332	Say, ai n''t that the haunted house the girls are always talking about?
20332	Shall I write and ask mamma?
20332	Shall we tell him?
20332	She would n''t have set the rest of us to hunting if she had, would she?
20332	She-- what?
20332	Sheriff? 20332 So you''re fishing to get her to write, are you?"
20332	Suppose Miss Davis does n''t return in two weeks? 20332 Suppose it wakes the rest of the bunch?"
20332	Supposing we do-- apologize, will they write to him still?
20332	Sure you do n''t want some more?
20332	Sure, but who''s going to let us down? 20332 Surely he is n''t going to----""Die?"
20332	Tabby Catt, Tabby Catt,they began in unison,"where have you been?
20332	That Mr. McKittrick is worse?
20332	That you, Toady?
20332	The Ramsey place?
20332	The girls?
20332	The haunted house?
20332	The pest house?
20332	The post- master?
20332	The river?
20332	The sheriff?
20332	Then how''ll we find him?
20332	Then what''s to hinder?
20332	Then why did n''t you stay at home?
20332	Then why do n''t you open it?
20332	Then why do n''t you take my dare?
20332	Then why does everyone avoid it so?
20332	Then you do n''t like it now, do you? 20332 Then you wo n''t let us out?"
20332	Then you wo n''t tell their Uncle this time?
20332	Then-- who-- will housekeep-- for us?
20332	There is no need of that, is there? 20332 To- night?"
20332	Toady, can you see anyone down there?
20332	Truly?
20332	Tumbled off the platform?
20332	Two?
20332	Was her name Weller at one time? 20332 Well, then, what shall it be?"
20332	Well, then, where''s the water?
20332	Well, what else can we do without clues?
20332	Were you ever down there?
20332	What about that haunted house in the east end of town?
20332	What are the rest of you going to do while your mother is away? 20332 What are you doing here?
20332	What are you doing here?
20332	What are you going to do about it now?
20332	What can we do? 20332 What clock?"
20332	What did it quit working for?
20332	What did you do?
20332	What did you say?
20332	What do you mean by that?
20332	What do you mean? 20332 What do you mean?"
20332	What do you mean?
20332	What do you think my head is made of-- iron?
20332	What does she mean?
20332	What for?
20332	What good will that do?
20332	What has happened, Dad?
20332	What haunts it?
20332	What in creation does she think she is singing?
20332	What in creation have you got, Susie McKittrick?
20332	What in the world did you put in that salad dressing, Glory?
20332	What in the world possessed them to go off like that?
20332	What is it then?
20332	What is it?
20332	What is that broom handle for?
20332	What is the meaning of this outrage?
20332	What made you do that?
20332	What made you hide them?
20332	What man?
20332	What possessed you to keep on, then?'' 20332 What shall you do with it?"
20332	What sound doth smite your ears? 20332 What stunt?"
20332	What would you do, Kitty?
20332	What''s eating you, Toady? 20332 What''s the matter with it?"
20332	What''s the matter? 20332 What''s your hurry?"
20332	What''s your name?
20332	Whatever would a girl do with four hundred dollars a year spending money?
20332	When is pay day?
20332	When?
20332	Where are the boys?
20332	Where are the others?
20332	Where are there any puppies about here?
20332	Where are you going to get your money to foot the bill?
20332	Where can the children be?
20332	Where did you come from and_ how_ did you get here?
20332	Where do they live?
20332	Where is the burglar?
20332	Where, Rosslyn?
20332	Where-- does-- the sheriff-- live?
20332	Where? 20332 Where?"
20332	Which? 20332 Who cares?"
20332	Who gave you such orders?
20332	Who is it?
20332	Who is it?
20332	Who is this mysterious Tabitha that you are so scared of?
20332	Who put you up to such a trick as that, you young minx? 20332 Who said rain?"
20332	Who''ll I go for?
20332	Who''s out there, and what do you want?
20332	Who''s the''fraid cat now?
20332	Who, then, smarty?
20332	Who? 20332 Who?"
20332	Why did n''t you dodge?
20332	Why do n''t you answer?
20332	Why, Billiard McKittrick, what do you mean?
20332	Why, Gloriana Holliday, where did you learn that?
20332	Why, how did you know her name was Catt?
20332	Why, how did you know where to look for us?
20332	Why, where_ is_ Tabitha?
20332	Why, who are with you? 20332 Why?
20332	Why?
20332	Why?
20332	Why?
20332	Why?
20332	Will he know what you want?
20332	Will you go first and see if there are any snakes?
20332	Will you go, too, Toady?
20332	Will you take it back, or shall I pummel the stuffing out of you?
20332	Williard and Theodore?
20332	With all those lizards down there?
20332	Without even Toady''s help?
20332	Would n''t it be wiser to tell the assayer and get him to help?
20332	Would n''t that be splendid?
20332	Would you accept it?
20332	Yes, they do, but you found them pretty frisky for pups, did n''t you?
20332	Yes, what do you mean?
20332	Yes?
20332	You do n''t agree with me?
20332	You knew Gwynne was there?
20332	You think he will wonder if I am crazy?
20332	_ Are_ there snakes and lizards?
20332	_ Are_ you going to apologize?
20332	_ I_ could n''t tell that it would hit you on the head, could I?
20332	_ Lock the door_?
20332	_ That_ rope? 20332 _ You_ did n''t eat any castor- beans, did you?"
20332	''Twas only a whisper from a rock nearby?
20332	A scuffling sound suddenly issued from the closet, and Gloriana cried in terror,"And leave me here alone with them?"
20332	Ai n''t he a sight?
20332	And besides, the way Toady flaunts his virtues in his brother''s face----""That_ is_ rather amusing, is n''t it?"
20332	And your father?
20332	Any clue?"
20332	Are any of you hurt?
20332	Are you on the way to our house?
20332	Are you ready for your-- lunch-- now?"
20332	Are you sick?"
20332	Are you sure you''re not hurt?
20332	Are your legs all right?
20332	At Myra''s boisterous call, he raised his eyes and inquired,"Where_ are_ the''eats''?"
20332	Avalon?
20332	Billiard, did n''t you choose your pup for Tabitha?"
20332	Bottom?
20332	But how could she, when he was so tantalizing, mean and sly?
20332	But now,--how can I make it right with Billiard and Toady?
20332	But what was he to do?
20332	But who could have resisted it?
20332	But why?"
20332	CHAPTER II TABITHA AND GLORIANA, HOUSEKEEPERS"You really think you want to do it?"
20332	CHAPTER XIII THE ROBBERS AND THE HAUNTED HOUSE"Billiard, did you ever see a ghost?"
20332	Ca n''t I help?"
20332	Call them, will you, please?"
20332	Can anyone make it an even ten?
20332	Can it be she did n''t come?
20332	Catalina Island?"
20332	Could Tabitha have gone suddenly crazy?
20332	Could she?
20332	D''ye think I''m a cat with eyes that see in the dark?"
20332	Dad, are the boys ready?"
20332	Dave, did you get the squabs all right?"
20332	Did n''t I do a good job, Mumsie?
20332	Did n''t mother tell you to bring----""Some stuffed squabs, fruit and cake?
20332	Did n''t we have a letter from her just two days ago saying she would reach here on to- day''s train?
20332	Did n''t you know''twas us?
20332	Did n''t you say when you investigated the larder last night that your aunt must have baked just a- purpose for our visit?"
20332	Did you think we took an airship?
20332	Do n''t they look fine?
20332	Do n''t you know it never rains in California?
20332	Do n''t you s''pose I know how?
20332	Do n''t you want to come too?"
20332	Do you know who I am?"
20332	Do you s''pose it really is haunted?"
20332	Do you suppose I can ever catch him?"
20332	Do you suppose the new postmaster has embezzled his funds already?"
20332	Do you suppose there is another run on the bank, or can it have failed?"
20332	Do you suppose there will be enough to go around?
20332	Does he live here, too?
20332	Does it take you all night to read that teenty letter?"
20332	Does n''t it always whistle?"
20332	Does n''t rope rot?"
20332	Does-- Is_ he_ the man they say robbed the bank?
20332	For from the opposite corner of the room someone had sleepily murmured,"What about the ostriches?"
20332	Forty miles?"
20332	Going to turn goody- goody, are you?"
20332	Going, girls?"
20332	Green peas, asparagus tips, French potatoes and caramel pudding?
20332	Ha, ha, ai n''t that rich?"
20332	Has you burro gone to sleep?"
20332	Have n''t I watched mamma and Tabitha hundreds of times?
20332	Have you ever seen a mine?"
20332	He had hoped she would at least express some sympathy for his aching head; but what did she care?
20332	How could he have forgotten the night part of it?
20332	How could she ever break the news to the mother?
20332	How could she ever have let them out of her sight?
20332	How could she put her thought into words when Mercedes was already so dreadfully frightened?
20332	How dare you dream such a thing as that?
20332	How did it happen?"
20332	How did_ you_ manage to stick on?"
20332	How do you happen to be wandering around town this time of night?"
20332	How does that suit you?"
20332	How far did you say it was, Myra?
20332	How many do you think you are going to feed_ me_?"
20332	How many eaglets are there besides Mercedes and the little boy you named?"
20332	How will this do?"
20332	I s''pose likely we''d get a good thrashing----""Would you rather stay here and take a whaling than skip while you''ve got the chance?"
20332	I suppose your trunks are at your own house?
20332	I''ve a proposition to make to you----""A what?"
20332	If this week will pass as smoothly as last week did, it''s all I''ll-- What in the world is the matter with the children?
20332	Is he hurt?
20332	Is he there yet?"
20332	Is it a go?"
20332	Is n''t it great to be alive in this day and age?"
20332	Is n''t it pretty with its red and yellow carpet?
20332	Is she truly?"
20332	Is that plain?"
20332	Is the gingerbread done, Gloriana?"
20332	Is this the place?
20332	Is this the river we cross eighteen times, Myra, in order to reach your ranch?"
20332	It leaves at three o''clock, does n''t it?
20332	It''s nothing short of a miracle that-- Hello, Susie, what did you say?"
20332	Let a feller alone for once, ca n''t you?"
20332	Mamma?"
20332	Miss Davis did n''t come on to- day''s train, but I s''pose likely she''ll be here to- morrow, do n''t you think?"
20332	Must we go hungry now because I lost all your little stuffed scrubs,--I mean squabs?"
20332	My, but it does seem nice to have a few weeks of vacation, does n''t it?"
20332	Myra Haskell, is Miss Pomeroy occupying one of those twelve tents?"
20332	Myra turned to Tabitha with a comical grimace, and said,"What did I tell you?
20332	Not in town now?
20332	Now what do you think of that?"
20332	Now, are you all clothed and in your right minds?
20332	Now, can you help me make the opening bigger?"
20332	Now, what shall we do with our money?"
20332	Now, where is your trunk?
20332	Or be you_ deef_?"
20332	Or shall we invest in some strawberries at two bits a box and have shortcake for dessert?"
20332	Queer how youngsters want to see such things, is n''t it?
20332	Say, are you going to catch that train at three o''clock?
20332	Scrambling to her feet, she seized the scared baby in her arms, exclaiming over and over again,"Janie, Janie, are you sure you are n''t killed?"
20332	Shall I bring in the pie?"
20332	Shall we tell Mrs. McKittrick that they have come?"
20332	Should she?
20332	Sick?"
20332	So he sighed as he thought of his lost opportunities, then abruptly asked,"How old are you, Tabitha?"
20332	Supposing she should lick him again for running away?
20332	Tabby Catt, Tabby Catt, what saw you there?
20332	The bucket would get away from you the first thing, and then where''d the rest of us be?
20332	Then after you have all gone home again, wo n''t I get the dickens?"
20332	Then the stillness was sharply broken by a hoarse whisper,"What was that, Bill?"
20332	There, did n''t I tell you?
20332	Was Gloriana right after all?
20332	Was n''t the constable at home?"
20332	We''ve come to stay till the folks get back----""Did n''t you get our telegram telling you not to come?"
20332	Well, is n''t there some place we can go where we wo n''t be gawked at by all these hoodlums?
20332	What clothes do you need to take?
20332	What did anyone care about him?
20332	What did you do with the raisins?"
20332	What did you leave me for?"
20332	What did you take her for?"
20332	What do you think of a person who will talk the way you have been doing?
20332	What does it look like?"
20332	What had come over her to suggest such a thing as an evening stroll, or climb, as it would be if they went up to the peak?
20332	What has happened?"
20332	What in the world-- Will you listen to this, girls?
20332	What is the matter ahead there?"
20332	What is the matter with you to- day, Glory?"
20332	What kind of a woman is she, anyway?"
20332	What kind will you have?"
20332	What mischief had Billiard led them into now?
20332	What on earth do they want of a wheelbarrow?"
20332	What ought she to do?
20332	What shall we have for dinner in honor of the occasion?
20332	What should they do?
20332	What steps are you taking toward the capture of the thieves?"
20332	What time is it, anyway?"
20332	What will mamma say?"
20332	What will you think of me?
20332	What would Mrs. McKittrick say if she could have seen me a few minutes ago?
20332	What would you do if burglars broke in at night?
20332	What_ is_ the matter?"
20332	Whatever possessed Dad, Uncle Decker?"
20332	When?"
20332	Where are you going?"
20332	Where are you staying, Myra?
20332	Where are your eyes?"
20332	Where are your hats and coats?
20332	Where can they have gone so quickly?"
20332	Where did you go?"
20332	Where did you hear that the baby was sick?"
20332	Where is there a pencil and paper?
20332	Where is you?
20332	Where shall you put them?"
20332	Where was he to stay?
20332	Where''s your adopted father?
20332	Which one?
20332	Which store is best here in town?"
20332	Who would ever imagine that Dad would go on a jaunt like this?
20332	Who''ll be first in line?
20332	Who''s to take which burro?"
20332	Why did n''t they let go?
20332	Why do n''t you come along?
20332	Why do n''t you come on down, Toady?"
20332	Why do n''t you get her to go with you?"
20332	Why do n''t you read mamma''s letter?
20332	Why had everyone left her?
20332	Why had he not followed them?
20332	Why had n''t she kept her suspicions to herself?
20332	Why on earth could n''t you wait until we had safely reached the other side before you commenced bragging?"
20332	Why, what is the matter?"
20332	Why, what''s this?"
20332	Why?"
20332	Will we have time, Tabitha?"
20332	Will you-- excuse-- me for what we said about you, too?"
20332	Will you-- will you-- er-- forgive me?
20332	Wo n''t it?"
20332	Wo n''t that be great?
20332	Wo n''t you try me again?"
20332	Would n''t there be consternation in the Eagles''Nest when his absence was discovered?
20332	Would n''t your ghost want to get out and walk?"
20332	Would the boy be killed for his folly?
20332	Would the doctor never come?
20332	Would you rest easy if you were planted in that style?
20332	Would_ could_ he do?
20332	You are n''t hurt, are you?"
20332	You know I told you about their getting part of the reward for helping capture the bank robbers in Silver Bow?
20332	You superstitious duck, did you think we could escape?
20332	Your mother-- she-- she''s-- dead, is n''t she?
20332	ejaculated Tabitha, not having noticed the seared fingers up to that moment,"What do you do for burns?"
20332	shrieked the girls in frenzy,"did you fall?"
20332	wo n''t he be mad to think we are n''t even dressed?
16629	A letter from me?--touching Searle for sixty thou? 16629 A letter?"
16629	A nugget!--gold!--not from the-- not from your claim?
16629	A room? 16629 After that,"he said,"does my conduct occasion surprise?"
16629	Aggravated?
16629	Ai n''t she just about it?
16629	Ai n''t she the female woman?
16629	Ai n''t this a placer? 16629 Ai n''t your syndicate back of any game you open, with the money to see it started right?"
16629	And he''s no further along towards Goldite than this?
16629	And how did she keep it-- the tavern?
16629	And that reminds me, Algy, what about you?
16629	And the money-- yours and mine-- did it go to assist in this unexpected enterprise, and not to buy a claim with Glen?
16629	And this was why you would n''t let us go in the auto?
16629	And what if they chance to meet you?
16629	And why do we have to go around?
16629	And you''d wish to go on being friends?
16629	And your plan is----"Look here, do I stack up like a Sunday- school superintendent? 16629 Anything gone wrong with Van Buren, or his claim?"
16629	Are n''t we going to cross the river here?
16629	Are you hungry?
16629	Are you ready for a talk? 16629 Are you sure it wo n''t pull over?"
16629	Are you?
16629	At last?
16629	Barger?
16629	Bought Lawrence to fake out the reservation line? 16629 Busy?"
16629	But do you know where it lies-- their claim?
16629	But how am I going to get down there and back?
16629	But you want somebody to belong to you now? 16629 But-- didn''t he discover the opportunity-- the chance?"
16629	But-- what shall I do?
16629	Ca n''t the Government do nuthin''--run no county line ner nuthin''without everybody sittin''up to notice?
16629	Ca n''t we tack somewhere?
16629	Ca n''t you do anything? 16629 Can you get it?"
16629	Can you start the work to- day?
16629	China?
16629	Could Searle have written such a letter as that?
16629	Could n''t we hold the wheel and wait fer Van?
16629	Dear Mr. Van: I wonder if I dare to ask a favor-- from one who has done so much already? 16629 Deceit?"
16629	Did he touch you for a loan?
16629	Did n''t you know this so- called cut- off to Starlight would take you more time than the road?
16629	Did she?
16629	Did this affair also require the expenditure of sixty thousand dollars?
16629	Did, hey? 16629 Do I look as bad as that?"
16629	Do I look like a native?
16629	Do I?
16629	Do n''t I say you''ve made a mistake?
16629	Do n''t you see them?--those lively little specks, swarming all around the machine?
16629	Do n''t you want to give this man a chance?
16629	Do you know them, then?
16629	Do you mean to desert them if I do? 16629 Do you ride?"
16629	Do you see that small, dark object in the road? 16629 Do you think I may not?"
16629	Do you think you could find him a room?
16629	Do you tin- horn miners think that''s all this office is for?
16629	Do you want them to kiss your hand?
16629	Does it reach?
16629	Elsa, can you ride-- on a horse?
16629	Epicure? 16629 Epicures?"
16629	Ever seen gold washin''before?
16629	Five forty- five?
16629	Found something too big to keep hidden?
16629	Goldite is n''t down there, is it?
16629	Good Lord, Van, ai n''t a man to breathe-- hain''t he got no rights to live, whatsoever?
16629	Good heavens, man,said Van, still staring,"are you sure of what you''re saying?"
16629	Got any matches?
16629	Got it? 16629 Got over your grouch?"
16629	Has Mr. Bostwick been here in my absence?
16629	Has anyone died around here recent?
16629	Has that ruffian, Van Buren, been here recently?
16629	Have a drink?
16629	Have anything to drink?
16629	Have n''t I always been stuck after you?
16629	Have n''t you worked on shinbones and heavenly hopes before?
16629	Have n''t_ you_ heard?--_you_?
16629	Have you always lived here-- out West?
16629	Have you engaged a suite for me?
16629	Have you got any plans in your attic?
16629	Have you got it as bad as that? 16629 Have you lodged a complaint-- done anything to have this fellow arrested?"
16629	Have you reported what was done to me?
16629	Have you written again?
16629	He ai n''t come hunting fer you as quick as this?
16629	He''d shoot you on sight?
16629	His check- book?
16629	His deputy?
16629	How about it, boy?
16629	How are you, Culver?
16629	How are you, Rick?
16629	How are you, Searle?
16629	How are you? 16629 How could I have a horse in Goldite?"
16629	How do you mean to handle the half- breed?
16629	How does he wish to work it?
16629	How far is it, really, from here?
16629	How long ago did you put him in jail?
16629	How long has your brother been out here in Goldite?
16629	How long will young Kent be away?
16629	How much did it need-- if I may ask?
16629	How much do you know of what has happened?
16629	How?
16629	Hullo,he said, while still a rod away,"what in blazes are you doing here, man-- are you lost?"
16629	I ca n''t get away much earlier,he said, and to this, by way of acting his part, he added:"Do you want to wear me out?"
16629	I do n''t want nothing I can git-- I guess-- unless-- Oh,_ is_ it her, Van? 16629 I say, Sis, why this misplaced fountain on the job?"
16629	I think different, savvy? 16629 I thought I''d like to see those results,"he said,"--that rock I fetched you last, remember?
16629	I want you to stand for it, savvy?
16629	I wonder if you can help me put on a tire?
16629	I''d buy them for you now and sit you down,said Van,"only why start a graveyard with a friend?"
16629	I''m an irritable man, and everything I own is irritable, understand?
16629	I''m lookin''out fer number one, this morning, understand? 16629 I''m very happy to-- how are you, Pratt?
16629	If Searle is dead, why do n''t he say so? 16629 If anyone comes that you can send, will you kindly have my horse taken over to the stable?"
16629	If not in the world, where_ would_ you have wished to see me, then?
16629	If you want your thousand back, why do n''t you say so?
16629	Illegal?
16629	Indeed?
16629	Is McCoppet in town?
16629	Is it good?
16629	Is it some small animal?
16629	Is it very far? 16629 Is n''t there a horse on the place?"
16629	Is n''t this absurd?
16629	Is that what you mean?
16629	Is that you, Gett?
16629	Is this a first- class place?
16629	Is this a hold- up?
16629	Is work unpopular, or did the wind blow the water from the creek?
16629	Is''Van''the candy boy with you?
16629	It''s nobody''s fault-- but what was the use, Van?--what was there in it for me?
16629	Joke? 16629 Joke?"
16629	Know what he come fer?
16629	Look here, Beth, is this some maudlin sentiment over that brigand, Van Buren? 16629 Look here,"said the gambler, whose wits were inordinately keen,"is anything leaking, Bostwick?
16629	Lost his pockets?
16629	Matt? 16629 Matt?"
16629	May I see you a moment, please?
16629	May I speak to you a moment privately?
16629	McCoppet?
16629	Money? 16629 Morning, Uncle.--Howdy?"
16629	Mr. Van-- Mr. Van-- where are you?
16629	My horse-- over at Charlie''s?
16629	My letter?
16629	My letter?
16629	Nap,he said,"what does this mean?--you wasting money on your face?"
16629	Need the money, do n''t you-- now?
16629	No we wo n''t wait fer nuthin''!--not fer nuthin'', understand?
16629	Not Mr. Bostwick, in his car?
16629	Not Vesuvius?
16629	Not across the awful desert?
16629	Not come at all? 16629 Not here?"
16629	Not with the other thirty thousand?
16629	Nothing doing?
16629	Now, how can anybody tell you that?
16629	Obligation? 16629 Oh, death, where is thy s- s- s- s-(whistle) sting?"
16629	Oh, indeed?
16629	Oh, really? 16629 Oh, you do n''t?"
16629	Oh,she said, dropping her eyes to her work,"and Glen is in it too?"
16629	Oh,she said,"poor old Searle?
16629	On something good for the-- for our little group?
16629	Onto his game?
16629	Opal? 16629 Poison?
16629	Queenie, what have you done?
16629	Say, Searle,he said,"do n''t you savvy you''ve lost your vote in this convention?
16629	Say, you ai n''t starting a shaft?
16629	Say, you,said he,"what''s on your programme?"
16629	She''s respectable, of course? 16629 So you come to me to find out?"
16629	That ai n''t what''s fetched him over to the desert?
16629	That all?
16629	The claim? 16629 The fact that I''m a stranger here----""And what will you do if he refuses?"
16629	The girl-- some girl you-- Isn''t it beautiful?
16629	The girl?
16629	The pin? 16629 Then what do you think?
16629	Then what is the next thing to do?
16629	Then why do n''t you wait and go with us?
16629	Then you have purchased the mine-- you and Glen?
16629	There''s certainly gold on this reservation?
16629	There''s nothing at present that our syndicate could do?
16629	Think so, do you, Opal?
16629	Think you could ride my cayuse?
16629	This broach?
16629	Till noon?
16629	To you? 16629 Trimmer?
16629	Two?
16629	Van, if you ai n''t got no respect fer yourself, ai n''t you got none left fer us old doggone cusses?
16629	Was Searle the only man you knew in all New York?
16629	Was that the cuss? 16629 We ca n''t expect to, can we?"
16629	We? 16629 Well, have you got that thirty thousand?"
16629	Well, well,said he nervously,"now who''d a- thought you''d finished eatin''?"
16629	Well? 16629 Well?"
16629	Well?
16629	Wha''for no tell me blingee ladies? 16629 What about it?"
16629	What are you doing here anyhow?
16629	What are you doing here, I''d like to know?
16629	What are you goin''to do with me, then, now you''ve got me to rights?
16629	What are you talking about?
16629	What could I do?
16629	What did I s- s- s- s-(whistle) say?
16629	What did I sh- sh- sh- sh-(whistle) shay?
16629	What did I tell you about the inside track?
16629	What did you find?
16629	What do you advise me to do?
16629	What do you mean?
16629	What do you think of it yourself?
16629	What do you think they will do?
16629	What does it look like-- playing checkers?
16629	What does it mean?
16629	What for did you pull me out?
16629	What for?
16629	What has got him? 16629 What have you done with the sorrel?"
16629	What in hell-- was the use of my comin''here,he faltered,"if you do n''t take the money-- the reward?"
16629	What is he doing out South?
16629	What is it you expect to see?
16629	What is it, Queenie? 16629 What shall we do about the claim, and all this cargo, and everything?"
16629	What will you do if I refuse?
16629	What you doin''?
16629	What you givin''us, anyway?
16629	What you have done?
16629	What''s a mining claim for but to furnish good hard work for a couple of old ring- tailed galoots who''ve shirked it all their lives?
16629	What''s all this business, anyway? 16629 What''s all this pillow- fight about?"
16629	What''s going on at Starlight?
16629	What''s going on?
16629	What''s going on?
16629	What''s life anyhow but a sure- thing game? 16629 What''s mallah you, Van?"
16629	What''s mallah you, Van?
16629	What''s mallah you, Van?
16629	What''s mallah you, Van?
16629	What''s that got to do with this?
16629	What''s that?
16629	What''s that?
16629	What''s that?
16629	What''s that?
16629	What''s the answer? 16629 What''s the good of all these lyin''papers when I seen Matt myself, readin''the piece about him goin''back to the pen?"
16629	What''s the good of my finding you here in Goldite if you do n''t do nothing for your country?
16629	What''s the joke?
16629	What''s the matter with your eyes? 16629 What''s the matter with your writing hand?
16629	What''s the matter? 16629 What''s the trouble?"
16629	What''s the use of beating round the bush? 16629 What''s the use of my riding-- perhaps another mile?
16629	What''s the use of our trying to make it? 16629 What''s the use?
16629	What''s wrong with you, man?
16629	What''s your poison?
16629	What?
16629	What?
16629	Where are they now?
16629	Where are you going? 16629 Where are you putting up?"
16629	Where in the world have you been, all this time? 16629 Where in the world have you been, in such a rig?"
16629	Where is he, then?
16629	Where is he, then?
16629	Where shall we go to spend our honeymoon?
16629	Where''s Barger now?
16629	Where''s Van?
16629	Where-- where are you going?
16629	Wheresh that little g- g- g-(whistle) girl?
16629	Which one of you fellows is it that''s forgotten he''s a man? 16629 Who brought it into camp?"
16629	Who got you, Matt-- who got you?
16629	Who says so?
16629	Who told you the story?
16629	Who''s got that alibi?
16629	Who''s that?
16629	Who''s there?
16629	Who?
16629	Why did n''t you say what you wanted, earlier?
16629	Why do n''t you pick on a man of your color?
16629	Why do you call him a son of a gun?
16629	Why not be frank? 16629 Why not use your own?
16629	Why not, when Glen has the chance of his life? 16629 Why not?"
16629	Why should n''t I wish it to continue?
16629	Why should n''t we be married now-- at once? 16629 Why, how can I do less?"
16629	Why, how can you tell? 16629 Why, yes-- what is it?"
16629	Why-- but----she gasped,"there is nothing to eat-- no water-- there is n''t anything on the desert, is there?--anywhere?"
16629	Why-- how can you speak so rudely? 16629 Will you still have an ace in your kahki?"
16629	Will your men know where to find him?
16629	Wo n''t he try to hunt you up-- and pay you back?
16629	Wo n''t you sit down?
16629	Work it, yep, but what on?
16629	Would n''t he take it as a favor if you passed him some money and the word about Van Buren''s hike to Starlight?
16629	You and I break even, Barger, understand? 16629 You and I were friends-- I''m sure we were friends-- but now----""Now, if we are not, do you think the fault is mine?"
16629	You bought it, Van, who from?
16629	You do n''t know what an epicure is? 16629 You do n''t mean to say he''s turned up again unslaughtered?"
16629	You do n''t mean to say this accident-- this crime-- is fortunate, after all?
16629	You do n''t mean to say----"Do with it, man? 16629 You expected this?"
16629	You have n''t already begun to admire this ruffian-- glorify this outlaw?
16629	You hope?
16629	You know what Searle has done?
16629	You laugh at everything,she answered,"but is n''t it really a serious thing-- a menace to everyone-- having those convicts out of prison?"
16629	You left him well? 16629 You mean that I-- I have deceived you?
16629	You mean you propose to stay here in spite of my wishes?
16629	You saw Glen four days ago?
16629	You wo n''t come? 16629 You''d_ do_ it?"
16629	You''ll do as much as that for Glen?
16629	You''ll-- help?
16629	You''re elated over that?
16629	You''ve decided sudden, ai n''t you?
16629	You''ve taken my car?
16629	You-- knew they were out-- and waiting on the road?
16629	Young Kent ai n''t next to anything?
16629	_ Home_?
16629	_ My_ interest in the claim?
16629	A good- looking girl in camp, with her men- folks all giving her the go- by-- and what could you expect?
16629	A silence succeeded, then he heard, in tremulous accents:"I''m here-- but how am I going to tie the rope?"
16629	After a moment she asked him:"What do you mean to do?"
16629	After a moment, as he got no reply, he added:"Have you started?"
16629	After all, even with this"introduction"what were these men''s intentions?
16629	After all, what was the hurry to depart?
16629	After all, what was the odds?
16629	Ai n''t it funny-- that love-- can burn you-- up?"
16629	Ai n''t mad, are you?
16629	Ai n''t mad, are you?"
16629	Ai n''t that what''s the matter with you now?"
16629	Ai n''t the sheriff''s enough--_without a thing like that_?"
16629	And as Dave floundered, hopelessly puzzled, he added:"Give me a knock- down, man, do n''t you savvy?"
16629	And he had only asked for a"few odd dollars?"
16629	And the yearning there brought back again that thought he had voiced before, that night-- why could n''t the child have had a chance?
16629	And to think that you-- with Glenmore in town---- Why is n''t your brother here with you?"
16629	And why had he continued, for years, to believe in man or in Fate?
16629	And you left Starlight yesterday?"
16629	Another one bawled:"Where was he then?
16629	Are you going to move or be moved?"
16629	As for Beth-- what was the use of wishing to understand?
16629	Bostwick answered:"Can you?"
16629	Bostwick-- are you out here to work this camp my way or the kid''s?"
16629	But first, how have you been here, all alone?"
16629	But meantime, what of poor Glen?
16629	But, what was the use?
16629	But-- how did you know-- know me?"
16629	But-- what of Bostwick-- the man who had spent a portion of his time with the liberated convicts?
16629	By what right had he recently begun to expect her smile?
16629	Can you handle it then?"
16629	Can you hear me plainly?"
16629	Can you hike some twenty- odd miles?"
16629	Could he come to Goldite soon?
16629	Could it be that he and the station man were road- agents, plotting some act of violence?
16629	Could she try to go on?
16629	Culver, you say, represents the Government?
16629	Dick?"
16629	Dick?"
16629	Did n''t I always say I''d give you my head and breathe through my feet-- day or night?
16629	Did n''t I say nuthin''could n''t stop me?
16629	Did n''t I say so before?"
16629	Did n''t I tell''em all you was the only one?
16629	Did n''t happen to see a stray roof, anywhere, did you?
16629	Did n''t you come out here with that understanding?"
16629	Did n''t you know to- day was the day for the rush?"
16629	Do n''t his deputy take his place?"
16629	Do n''t you suppose you could try?"
16629	Do we understand you to say that Algy has gone to your boarding- house and taken a job as cook?"
16629	Do you hear?
16629	Do you mean to restrain these ladies here by force?"
16629	Do you s''pose you could kiss me good- by?"
16629	Do you think Cayuse would know who he was?--and believe it-- the yarn?"
16629	Does the line include the claim?"
16629	Gettysburg sat down, adding:"Why ca n''t you wait, Van, wait till the whole kit and boodle of us can move to the bran''-new claim?"
16629	Glen did n''t come along?
16629	Had he met Mr. Van?
16629	Had he understood that confession in her letter?
16629	Have n''t I wasted time enough already without sending someone out here to- morrow morning?
16629	Have you any alternative plan?"
16629	Have you had your breakfast?"
16629	He added:"Have a drink?"
16629	He ignored her question, demanding:"Say, is your name Kent?--Glenmore Kent?"
16629	He is n''t here?"
16629	He took out his gun and waved it loosely about, adding:"Which one of you remembers''Now I lay me down to sleep''?"
16629	He turned to go, beheld her luggage, and added:"Is there anyone to take up your things?"
16629	He waited while he thought she might be working-- as indeed she was-- and presently added:"Got that done?"
16629	He was feeling strong and well?"
16629	He was serving half a dozen men, and he said:"Gents, what''s your poison?"
16629	He''s successful?"
16629	He''s well?
16629	He''s-- where?
16629	Hear me shout?
16629	His voice slightly shook as he asked:"Do you like it?"
16629	How are you, anyway?"
16629	How are you?
16629	How could he be a brute?
16629	How could it be possible for such a man to be other than a gentleman-- no matter where he was found?
16629	How did you happen to show Mr. Van Buren-- let him see the last page of my letter?"
16629	How much money have you got in your clothes?"
16629	How much shall we require?"
16629	How much was known?--and what was being done?
16629	How you s''plose I gettee dinner?
16629	I ask you now if you are prepared to play something big-- and-- well, let us say, a trifle risky?"
16629	I suppose I may see you, privately-- even here?"
16629	I''ve dropped an egg-- and what in the world shall I do?"
16629	If he is n''t on deck, then have you no one else?
16629	If he''d forge a letter from you, and lie like this and deceive me so, what would n''t he do to rob these men of their mine?"
16629	If you really intend to permit us to go, why could n''t we have gone on as we were?"
16629	Is it sure all over with me?"
16629	Is n''t it sufficient to have things all gone wrong with Culver?
16629	Is that enough?"
16629	Is that what you mean?"
16629	Is the brigand still on the job?
16629	Is this Van- brigand holding them both?
16629	Just a few little errands, I suppose?"
16629	Lawrence?"
16629	Matters might still have culminated differently had Bostwick even asked a civil"Why?"
16629	Maybe you mean my house ai n''t good enough?"
16629	McCoppet replied with a question:"Bostwick, how much have you got?"
16629	McCoppet?"
16629	Me not know what an epicure is?"
16629	Meantime, is your money in the bank?"
16629	Miss Beth-- are you up there on the trail?"
16629	My dinner not git leady, Van, you savvy that?
16629	No answer to Glen''s request for money?
16629	No letter from herself?
16629	No word from Searle?
16629	Not_ your_ Matt Barger?"
16629	Of course, he did n''t read you my suspicions concerning himself?"
16629	Or did he scorn and loathe her now for having succumbed to his love?
16629	Out of prison?"
16629	Remember?"
16629	Say, you, are you deef?"
16629	Searle has n''t got you going on the lachrymals already?"
16629	She added generously:"Could n''t I walk a little now, and-- share the horse?"
16629	She added to Beth:"Ai n''t he the dickens and all?
16629	She said:"Shall we ride very far?"
16629	She said:"Where is this mine that Glen has found?"
16629	So you are the friend who runs Miss Kent''s errands?
16629	Surely you have a little-- a little something for me, pet?
16629	Suvy, where''s your pride?
16629	That the horse was his gift she comprehended all at once-- but-- what had he said-- what was it he had said, that she must answer?
16629	The maid looked the horseman over quite calmly, inquiring:"What for dit you did it-- go down there?"
16629	Then he presently said:"How much time have we wasted?"
16629	Then wo n''t he feel ugly, resentful?"
16629	Then, what could it mean?
16629	Trimmer stared, shifted uneasily in his seat, and demanded:"Where?
16629	Trimmer?"
16629	Van Buren''s claim?"
16629	Van nodded:"Have you ever tried Algy''s cooking?"
16629	Van?"
16629	Was he better?
16629	Was it something in particular?"
16629	We can almost see daylight through what you said, but who, for instance, is Charlie Sing?"
16629	Well, what was the next thing to do?
16629	What a scramble it would be, and all for-- what?
16629	What about the girl-- the young chump''s sister?
16629	What are they?--not robbers?--not men?"
16629	What could be the outcome of a journey like this, undertaken so blindly, with no chance for resistance?
16629	What could be worse than that?"
16629	What did you do about the reservation permit?"
16629	What do you mean?
16629	What do you mean?"
16629	What do you mean?"
16629	What do you want-- how much?"
16629	What do you want?"
16629	What do you wish me to say?"
16629	What else could it mean, his coldness, his abrupt departure, after all that had been, and his stubborn silence since?
16629	What had been the necessity for all those qualms of fear?
16629	What have you done with Algy?"
16629	What have you got in your kahki?"
16629	What in the world are you drivin''at?"
16629	What makes you think you''re worth it?"
16629	What manner of being was he, after all?
16629	What was he, then?
16629	What''s mallah you?"
16629	What''s the answer?"
16629	What''s the answer?"
16629	What''s the matter with Searle?
16629	What''s the use of being finniky while we live-- as long as even the Almighty''s dealing brace?"
16629	When ai n''t you going to be busy?"
16629	When?"
16629	Where are you from?"
16629	Where have you been?"
16629	Where is he at?"
16629	Where is he now?"
16629	Where is she?"
16629	Where''s your pride?
16629	Whither were they going?--and towards what Fate?
16629	Who told you that?"
16629	Who told you to look for me here?"
16629	Who told you, Matt?
16629	Why all this elaborate surprise-- this newspaper wireless to your fond and lonesome?
16629	Why could n''t you and Searle and the maid come down and have a look at me-- working?
16629	Why could n''t you let a grubber know you were hiking out here to the desert?
16629	Why could n''t you let it go at that?"
16629	Why defer mere thanks_ indefinitely_?"
16629	Why do n''t you do him, boy?
16629	Why do n''t you go and fetch''em?"
16629	Why do n''t you show them?
16629	Why do you ask such a question?"
16629	Why poor?"
16629	Will you please go tell him that?"
16629	Wo n''t you have a chair, Miss Kent?"
16629	Would Beth, by any possibility, attempt to see him-- come out, perhaps, in the moonlight-- for a word before he should go?
16629	Would the madman never halt?
16629	Yes, I''ve got it,"Bostwick answered nervously,"but what is the good of it now?"
16629	Yet what was she to think?
16629	You are sure he''s in Starlight now?"
16629	You did n''t suppose I''d freeze you out, my little woman-- my little wife-- to be?
16629	You do n''t mean his cabin was blown down by the storm?"
16629	You do n''t mean to say that Searle really drugged you, or something like that-- what for?"
16629	You do n''t really think I''d hesitate?"
16629	You got my letter, of course?"
16629	You have n''t come back without Glen?"
16629	You no got good luck I never want the money, you savvy?
16629	You''re not going-- you''re not really going, like this?"
16629	You''re not putting her wise to the layout?"
16629	You''re well?
16629	You''ve entirely recovered?
16629	[ Illustration:"Do n''t you want to give this man a chance?"]
16629	are n''t you?"
16629	he asked her,"--you and your maid?"
16629	he growled,"--after what he did to me?"
16629	inquired the owner, before he took a chair,"--whiskey, wine?"
16629	my boy!--don''t you love me any more?
16629	said Van drawlingly,"refuse to eat Algy''s confections?--a crowd like that?
16629	said Van,"did n''t that experience do you any good after all?
16629	said old Billy,"Me!--drink and git a jag when she''s expectin''me to hike right out of camp?
16629	said the older man apprehensively,"you ai n''t sure- a- goin''to tackle the outlaw today?"
16629	she cried with genuine tears in her eyes,"did n''t I always say you was the candy?
16629	she said,"before the men come in?"
16629	what shall I do?"
16629	yes-- yes-- then what next?"
