61657So you have come, John? 61657 Well, what luck?"
61657Who is this fellow, anyway?
61657Why did you do that?
61657Why,said I,"do you not believe in God?"
61657You are welcome,said mine host, and I answered,"What strange thing have you been about?"
61657And if these were some of the present and tangible results of our journey, who will estimate the fruitage of eternity?
61657And those wonderful mirages, who can describe them?
61657And who doubts our doing it?
61657Are you not foolish to think and act as you do?

61657Now, for the seven bulls what was the whole number?"
61657The change will come, no doubt, but when?
61657Then he asked,"What did you see that made you ride across this way?"
61657Then said I,"Do you see that?
61657Then why not all men be thus helped and made better?
61657Was he a Hudson''s Bay Company clerk, a free trader, or a traveller bent on sport?
61657What signified that we had brought little or no provisions?
61657When we converged, I said to the leader,"Where are you going?"
61657Who will say after this that these people have no sentiment?
61657Why, then, this degradation witnessed on every hand?
61657and I answered,"What did you see that made you start out from camp at this hour?"
44312But who would tell papa?
44312Qui en a fait la chanson? 44312 Voulez- vous écouter chanter Une chanson de vérité?
44312And are the Shushwaps such cowards, dastardly to shoot their benefactor in the back while his face was turned?

15342Holla, Mac, where are you going with your basket?
15342My dear fellow, how can you think of risking yourself in such a gimcrack contrivance as that? 15342 Well, my boys, what is your business with me?"
15342What do you think of the sugar?
15342Among other questions, I asked him whether he had not been baptized?
15342And what was my reward?
15342But what can be the cause of it?
15342Could it be really so?
15342Has the fiat, then, gone forth, that the aboriginal inhabitants of America shall make way for another race of men?
15342He asked me if I would be baptized?
15342He is now a member of the Church, and is dismissed to his woods-- a Christian, can we say?
15342I asked him how he made that out?
15342Pray how do you like the beef- steaks?"
15342The white men are not dogs; they love their kindred as well as you; why should they not avenge their murder?"
15342Towards morning, recovering the use of speech, he inquired, in a voice scarcely audible, if he"had shed the blood of a white man?"
15342Was I indeed guilty of the blood of a fellow- creature?
15342Where did she get them?
15342With such an establishment to rule over, need it be matter of surprise that our_ bourgeois_ was in his own estimation a magnate of the first order?
15342[ 1] Belluga?
15342are you not going there?"
15342did you imagine you had sent for an old woman?"
15342does your religion teach you to tell lies?
15342not know of Fort Coulonge, and you so near to it?
15342said Godin, feigning ignorance of the Indian''s meaning:"Pray, to whom did he belong?"
15342shall we strike?"
15342would you really wish to see your husband hanged?"
61658But what is Peter going to do?
61658Oh,said the other boy,"where does he come from?"
61658Well, then,said I,"why do n''t you travel faster, and let us get there?"
61658What George?
61658What did the people live on?
61658After all, who knows?
61658And while I was wondering how to secure one, a young Indian, as if he divined my thought, said to me,"Will you go to- morrow?
61658As I looked, I asked myself,"Am I dreaming?
61658But my boot-- could it ever be mended?
61658Did the people where I came from fight?
61658For a moment I stood in amazement; then the fact that William and myself were still on this side made me shout to Peter,"How are we to cross?"
61658He was on foot, but I saw he had a small pack on his back, and my first question was,"Have you anything to eat?"
61658Hudson''s Bay-- we had a very vague idea where that was; but Norway House, who could tell us about this?
61658I said to Peter,"Will the bear not be good to eat?"
61658I said,"What is the matter?"
61658I went on the jump, thankful for the change, and finding Mr. Woolsey, I said,"What is the matter?
61658I whistled to Peter, and he said,"What is it?"
61658If a bear was to kill you?"
61658If anything had happened to you, what could I say to him?"
61658Is this so?"
61658Presently I said,"How are we going to cross?"
61658The sweltering heat, the numberless mosquitoes-- who can begin to describe them?
61658What about war?
61658What are you doing behind here, ready to give up?
61658What could he see?
61658What did he know?
61658What had spoken to her?
61658What is the matter with you?
61658What was the first declension, what did you do with it, how learn it, how recite it?
61658When are they going to camp?
61658Why do n''t they camp?
61658what made you jump off your horse?
61658where was I, but far behind?
61658will you hunt with us?"
61658would it ever look as it had?
16864And what if you had been overtaken by a storm?
16864What do you think of the ingenuity of our Yankee cats? 16864 After this, what protection, or generosity, or justice, can the Indians he said to receive from the Hudson''s Bay Company? 16864 And that man-- the slanderer-- the murderer of this martyred Missionary-- what punishment was inflicted on him? 16864 Are they to be left to the tender mercies of the trader until famine and disease sweep them from the earth? 16864 But are not the British themselves to blame, in some measure, for the continuance of these irritated feelings? 16864 Could the Honourable Company be swayed by so paltry a consideration in subjecting us to so grievous an inconvenience? 16864 Did he never visit Wapping with the same views, whatever they might be? 16864 Did the murders committed by the natives at New Caledonia, Thompson''s River, and the Columbia, pass unavenged? 16864 If he did, did he observe nothing in that sink of filth and wickedness equal to the scenes that shocked him so much in the outskirts of New York? 16864 If our fathers quarrelled, can not we be friends? 16864 Might not this circumstance lead the geologist to the conclusion that the fall had receded this distance? 16864 Now, now is the time to apply the remedy; in 1863, where will the Indian be? 16864 Strip the nobility and land- owners of their possessions-- convert our monarchy into a republic-- and the church into ameetin ouse?"
16864The present proprietors of the soil of England have, undoubtedly, large incomes; but what becomes of those incomes?
16864The question is-- Is it consistent with prudence to allow an_ individual_ to assume and retain such power?
16864These_ reforms_ effected, would the people of England be permanently benefited by them?
16864This looks very well on paper; but are we allowed the means of bestowing these gratuities?
16864Those results attained, what is there to prevent the American gentleman from becoming as polished and accomplished as his cousin in Britain?
16864To what cause then are we to ascribe the present scarcity?
16864What became of the Hannah Bay murderers?
16864What cause, then, can there be for still cherishing those feelings of animosity which the unhappy disruption gave rise to?
16864What do they obtain from us without payment?
16864What plan would this philanthropic divine recommend to remove those evils, which, while he affects to deplore, he yet glories over?
16864What spot in the world, in fact, can present such varied charms, as the summit of Mount Edgecumb?
16864What the"Dickens"brought him to the"Five Points?"
16864What was the decision of this mock court martial?
16864Where are the evils which interested alarmists predicted would follow the modification of the East India Company''s charter?
16864Who could doubt the fulfilment of the promises of a British peer?
16864Who would not be an Indian trader?
16864Why should not the Indians succeed in domesticating these animals, and rendering them subservient to their wants, as the Laplanders do?
16864Why then is it continued?
16864Why, otherwise, do we not find the different varieties in Canada, where the grisly bear has never been seen?
16864Yet while stern justice alike condemns both, which is the more guilty party?
16864or which has the greater claims on our sympathy?
16864what do you think of that, now?"
16864| an|| dee ay| an adee|| Where| Andé aish| Tanté ay to| Tee ay ghay| Ed luzeet|| are you|[= a]e an| tay an| de[= a]za| hee hee|| going?
6913Who am I? 6913 & if you have more witt then we, why did not you use it by preserving your knives, your hattchetts,& your gunns, that you had from the ffrench? 6913 As I was directly coming where the hurrons weare, what should I see? 6913 But mightily mistaken; ffor they would reply,Should you bring us to be killed?
6913But what is it that a man can not doe when he seeth that it concerns his life, that one day he must loose?
6913But, O cursed covetousnesse, what art thou going to doe?
6913Doe not you know the ffrench way?
6913Doe you think that the ffrench will come up here when the greatest part of you is slained by your owne fault?
6913For they spoke to me in this manner:"In which country have you been?
6913From whence did come such excellent castors?
6913From whence doe you come?
6913Have not you seene me disposing my life with you?
6913How will you defend villages?
6913I inquired[ of] him also if he loved the Algonquins?
6913If I am a foe, why did you suffer me to live so long among you?
6913Is there no way to goe there?
6913Moreover it''s night; what dost thou intend to doe?
6913Shall they come to baptize your dead?
6913Shall your children learne to be slaves among the Iroquoits for their ffathers''cowardnesse?
6913The fish and the sauce invite us to it; is there no meanes to catch it?
6913The great effect that the flemings shewed me, and the litle space was from us there; can I make that journey one day?
6913There is the question who was most fearfull?
6913Thou art master of my Goods; this Dogg that spoke but now, what doth hee heare?
6913What can we do?
6913What hath that poore nation done to thee, and being so far from thy country?
6913What is that, that interrest will not do?
6913What weare those beasts?
6913What will it be if wee heare yeatt cryes& sorrows after all?
6913What will your ennemy say when you perish without defending yourselves?
6913Where is the plentynesse that yee had in all places and countreys?
6913Where is the time past?
6913Who has given you your life if not the ffrench?
6913Who then will come up and baptize our children?
6913Will you have your brethren destroyed that loves you, being slained?
6913Will you make me believe now that he is good, as the black- coats[ the ffather Jesuits] say?
6913You know, my uncles& brethren, that I hazarded my life goeing up with you; if I have no courage, why did you not tell me att my first coming here?
6913am I a foe or a friend?
6913how will you defend your wives& children from the ennemy''s hands?"
6913with castors''skins?
42279Am I to oppose force to force?
42279Am I to venture against those who have committed these outrages against your Majesty''s subjects at sea? 42279 And now, gentlemen,"said Dixon,"what is it you want?"
42279But what,asked Radisson,"are you doing here?
42279By whose authority,asked Radisson;"do you possess a commission?"
42279If,it was said,"the Hudson''s Bay Company can make vast moneys out of the frozen North, what can be done with lands flowing with milk and honey?"
42279What am I to do?
42279What does Mr. Radisson say to this?
42279What is there in their charter,they asked themselves,"which gives them benefits we can not enjoy?
42279What is to become of us,they demanded,"if we are to have no protection for our servants in these wild regions of the North?"
42279Who are you?
42279Whom dost thou wish I should answer? 42279 Why are new tribes not brought down?
42279Why,he exclaimed, with ludicrous energy,"why should this gentleman be continually dignified by the appellation of governor?
42279And why was this confirmation limited to but seven years?
42279As to the idea that being in the fur- trade his experience and influence will benefit the new Company, will any furrier believe that?
42279B. C.''mean?"
42279But was it the Hudson''s Bay Company''s duty to enlighten the aggrieved inhabitants?
42279Did the King?
42279Did the Prince Regent?
42279For have we not saved them all from the treachery of the English?"
42279Give them good goods; they like to dress and be fine; do you see?"
42279If these gentlemen are so patriotic, why do n''t they buy us out?"
42279Seizing by the scalp- lock the chief of the tribe, who had already adopted him as his son, he asked,"Who art thou?"
42279The Company who had been bullied and badgered and threatened with confiscation unless it agreed to a renunciation of its rights?
42279Their occupation was gone-- whither did they drift?
42279They declared they were conscious of having made a bad bargain in not continuing onward to the Company''s posts, but what could they do?
42279Thou art the master of my goods; but as for that dog who has spoken, what is he doing in this company?
42279To this enquiry, which was delivered in a very authoritative and insolent tone, Semple replied by demanding of Boucher what he and his party wanted?
42279To this outburst the Duke quietly replied:"What is your price?"
42279What brings you into this part of the country and in such numbers?"
42279What was the direct consequence of such a policy?
42279What were the projects harboured in this indomitable man''s mind?
42279Who made him governor?
42279Why do not our factors seek new sources of commerce?"
42279Why, have asked its enemies, if the Company had the utmost confidence in its charter did it resort to the Lords and Commons to have it confirmed?
42279You are here to- day, but will you be here to- morrow?
42279You know,"he pursued,"what is said about you in England?"
42279they asked,"and what is your business?"

35208But what is that stuff? 35208 Can I put your clothing on the floor and make use of that bench?"

35208''May I have the bench?''
35208''Oh, my gun?''
35208''Where is your gun?''
35208A good job?

35208And what is the end?
35208Are you fond of it?"

35208Grant?"

35208If Mr. Frenchman, who kept the store, had come from behind his counter, English fashion, and had said:"Come, come; what d''you want?
35208No?
35208Not in Canada, do you say?
35208Waving his hand in an insolent way to the Governor, Boucher called out,"What do you want?"
35208What do I mean?
35208What do you do?
35208What was the use?
35208What would I do?
35208What you do dere, you t''ief?"

36578''Are ye sure that''s so?'' 36578 ''D''ye think a chap''ll lose the trail to heaven, that''s never ridden over it afore?''
36578''D''ye think they could o''lost it an''got down to the camp o''the old fellow?'' 36578 ''I guess he''s struck it rich, an''he''ll not come back,''says Bill,''but how am I to know when I do n''t know the marks?''
36578After lyin''still fur several hours, he ses,''Is he gettin''better?'' 36578 And have you always found the happiness you wished for in these places?"
36578Are not the former finer men than the latter?
36578Are your parents living?
36578Boys, ye mind that cripple that ye wus laughin''at in camp the other day? 36578 Come, Napiake, what do you think of the white chief?"
36578Do you live in this part of the country?
36578Had you ever any trouble with the Indians in those days?
36578Has he a wife?
36578Have you all your children with you?
36578Have you always lived up here in the mountains?
36578Have you any money?
36578How much do you want for him?
36578May I not go with you and make you happy among your people? 36578 Shall we know each other?"
36578What news? 36578 When are you coming back?"
36578Where is your home?'' 36578 Which of the two types of men do you find the better?"
36578Which way are you travelling?
36578Which way have you been that you have been so unfortunate? 36578 Will you sit down and have some supper with us?
36578Will you tell us your name?
36578You evidently have been enamored of the people, the climate or the manner of life, that you have remained so long?
36578You have been several years in the country, Mr. Daniels, I understand?
36578You have been sick for some time?
36578An''do n''t ye think He''ll pay ye fur that?
36578Didna I tell ye that yer dreams an''prayers would all come true?''
36578Forgotten?
36578Had he taken revenge upon the chief of the Fort, done away with the child and then decamped?
36578Had my partner turned traitor, or did he think that I was an Indian?
36578Had these horses been running of their own accord, or were they on the enchanted ground of the red man?
36578Had they been chasing a phantom?
36578He ses:"''Wall, friend, what can I do fur you?''
36578How long will the place be unspoiled by man?
36578If the police had not come to this country, where would we all be now?
36578Is he gettin''better?''
36578Is it a heap o''stones, or a tree blazed, or a fire burnin'', so as I can see the smoke?''
36578Is it for the last time?
36578One of them spoke up saying,"Have you seen the tall man?"
36578Shall we live there always?"
36578She had admired Running Deer when he visited her father''s lodge, listened with interest to his adventures, but how could she love him?
36578The dear old body took me by the hand as she prayed for me wi''her dying breath, and afore she went away she says,''Ye''ll serve him, Johnnie?''
36578The horses were there, but where were the men who had driven them off?
36578Upon what mission is he bent?
36578Was he to perish and not save the child?
36578Was her devoted husband going to leave her, and would he never return?
36578Was there no one to respond; none to answer her?
36578Wearied with his long journey does he seek rest?
36578What can I do to pay you for it?
36578What is he saying?
36578What news?"
36578Where was it?
36578Why leave his friends?
36578Why should he go thence?
36578Will ye lift yer hat an''say,"Good day, sir,"or will ye wait till He speaks to ye?
36578Ye min''that publican?
36578and another said,"Yes; have you seen the white chief?"
36578hae ye forgotten all I taught ye at my knee?''
36578was he to give his life for nought?
7126A Chief has his braves; you see here the braves of our Queen, and why are they here? 7126 And now that I am come in, what do I see? 7126 And these things that are promised will they commence at once and will we see it year after year?
7126And why is all this done?
7126Are you ready to carry it out?
7126Are your chiefs ready to sign this afternoon if we grant you these terms?
7126Are your ears open to hear?
7126CHIEF--"Should we discover any metal that was of use, could we have the privilege of putting our own price on it?"
7126CROWFOOT--"Great Father, what do you think now, what do you say to that?
7126FUTURE OF THE INDIANS And now I come, to a very important question, What is to be the future of the Indian population of the North- West?
7126GOVERNOR--"How many are there?"
7126GOVERNOR--"What you ask will not be granted, why are you so anxious about bad men?
7126Have you anything more to say to us, or are we to turn our backs upon you, and go away with sorry hearts for you and your children?
7126Have you chosen your speakers?"
7126Have you tried to be of one mind?
7126How have you come to meet us?
7126I have heard what has been said, and I am glad we are to be helped; but why do these men not speak?"
7126I repeated my warning, and at length he reluctantly came forward and said he wished to ask me a question,"Would the head men be paid?"
7126I think they must have learned wisdom; the words of the old are wise; why then, we ask ourselves-- and this is our trouble-- Why are your Chiefs dumb?
7126I understand that; but if we have any gardens through the country, do you wish that the poor man should throw it right away?"
7126If one of you owes the Chief is it right that the Queen should wipe it out?
7126If the Police had not come to the, country, where would we be all now?
7126If there is anything standing between us, how can we take it away or answer you unless we know what it is?"
7126In other lands the white and red man are not such friends as we have always been, and why?
7126Is it for the whole of the Indians?
7126Is it true that you bring the Queen''s hand?
7126Is it true you are bringing the Queen''s messenger''s kindness?
7126Is it true you are bringing the Queen''s power?"
7126Is it true you are going to give my child what he may use?
7126Is it true you are going to give the different bands the Queen''s kindness?
7126Is that just?
7126KAMOOSES--"Is it true that my child will not be troubled for what you are bringing him?"
7126KAN- OO- SES--"Is it true you are bringing the Queen''s kindness?
7126MORRIS--"What did the Company steal from you?"
7126MORRIS--"What do you complain of?
7126MORRIS--"What is troubling you?"
7126MORRIS--"Who are you speaking for?
7126MORRIS--"Who made the earth, the grass, the stone, and the wood?
7126MORRIS--"Why are you here to- day?
7126MR. DAWSON--"I would ask the Chief who has just spoken, did the band at Shebandowan-- did Rat McKay, authorize him to speak for them?
7126Must we go back and say we have had you here so many days, and that you had not the minds of men-- that you were not able to understand each other?
7126Must we go back and tell the Queen that we held out our hands for her, and her red children put them back again?
7126Now we want to ask you are you wiser, do you know more, than the Ojibbeway people that I met last year?
7126Now, we ask you again, are you wiser than your brothers that I have seen before?
7126One of them at length arose, and pointing to the River Saskatchewan, said,"Can you stop the flow of that river?"
7126PEI- CHE- TO''S SON-- O- TA- HA- O- MAN, THE GAMBLER--"My dear friends, do you want me to speak for you to these great men?"
7126SHAPONETUNG''S FIRST SON--"I find what was done at Qu''Appelle was good, does it take in all my children?"
7126She learned last winter that bad men from the United States had come into her country and had killed some of her red children, What did she say?
7126THE GAMBLER--"Cannot you sign such a paper?"
7126Then I ask myself, why do they not answer?
7126They met to thank the Queen and to say that they were content, and why are they content?
7126This is the reason I speak of the Company, why are you staying in the Company''s house?"
7126Was it done by the Company?
7126We wish to know if the Crees are ready to speak with us now?"
7126What are they doing now up at Fort Pelly?
7126What do you say?"
7126What has been the result?
7126Who are you?
7126Who surveyed this land?
7126Why are you not of one mind?
7126Why can you not open your hearts to me?
7126Why do I talk so much?
7126Why should I take all this trouble?
7126Why?
7126Why?
7126Why?
7126Will the two dollars be paid to our principal men as well?
7126Will you explain?"
7126Will you receive that which I am asking?
7126You ask then why I went to the Company''s house?
21478And how did you find Pat?
21478And who is that boy in the Indian dress?
21478Are we to continue our search for the horses, or must we give it up?
21478Bouncer, old fellow, where have you come from?
21478But how are we to get along without food?
21478But how shall we ever reach the` cache''without provisions?
21478But if the Indians have left the neighbourhood, what are we to do?
21478But if we do not go on foot how are we ever to get to Fort Ross?
21478But the deer must be shot first, and fitting bones found to make the hooks; and then, as to bait?
21478But where are you to find iron for the hooks or material for the lines?
21478Can Sandy have forgotten to hoist it?
21478Did you ever expect to become like an Indian, and to be contented with your lot?
21478Have you any friends in the neighbourhood, Misther Miskwandib?
21478He has evidently been living a long time among Indians, and it''s my belief he has made his escape from them.--Is that the case, boy?
21478How are we to get the fish to stop and be struck at?
21478How do you know that I came down in a canoe?
21478How is your father?
21478How will you make it boil?
21478I do n''t know what Alick will think about it, but I suspect that it will take too long a time,I said;"and where are the handles to be found?"
21478I must eat it, if I can get nothing else,I said to myself; but then again I thought,"By what means shall I reach the fort?
21478I wonder how long a man can go without eating?
21478I''ll do it if I have the chance,he answered;"but why do n''t you shoot the baste?"
21478May I venture to ask how you came to be here?
21478Now what you carry?
21478Shall we cut him up at once, or go back and take Alick and Robin on board, and then return for the purpose?
21478Tell me, boy,he exclaimed, interrupting him--"have you no recollection of your parents?
21478Then have my father and mother escaped?
21478Well, Mr Pipe, but suppose you take three guns and the remainder of the price either in blankets or in tobacco, will that not content you?
21478What are these for?
21478What are we to do now?
21478What could make you do such a thing?
21478What do you say, lads, to pushing forward at once to the fort at Touchwood Hills? 21478 What do you think of it?"
21478What do you think of our friend, Pat?
21478What dreadful event can have happened?
21478What has become of the flag?
21478What is to be done?
21478What news?
21478What''s the matter, Pat?
21478Where are the rest, Bouncer? 21478 Who are you, friends?"
21478Who are you?
21478Why do you say that?
21478` Are you sure that it is dead?'' 21478 ` What do you say, my son?''
21478Are they near at hand?"
21478CAN IT BE YOU?"
21478Could a fresh body of Indians be about to attack us?
21478DON''T YOU REMEMBER US?"
21478I could not avoid asking myself, should any of us be able to endure the fatigue we must first undergo, or should we even obtain food to support life?
21478I hope you are all right, though?"
21478It wo n''t be worth while to carry these swans with us; will it?"
21478It would soon come to an end, and then what could we do?
21478Rose spoke to him first, and then Letty exclaimed,"Surely you can speak English?"
21478They knew also that they would not be pursued, as the snow would have completely obliterated their trail?
21478What could have happened to delay them?
21478What do you say?"
21478What has been their fate?"
21478What should we say to his father and mother, should we again meet them, or to Rose?"
21478What''s your name?"
21478When I awoke in the morning, not a sight was there of the canoe, and I thought to myself, What was I to do?
21478Who can he be?"
21478any one hereabouts?
21478can it be you?"
21478can that be you?
21478do n''t you remember us?"
21478is he there?
21478now you''re coming in, are you?
21478now, what''s become of the powder?"
21478now, what''s it all about?"
21478shure, is it yourself that''s spaking to me?"
21478shure, shure, what shall we be afther doing?"
21478that''s what we''ll be afther doing,"cried Pat.--"Won''t we, boys?
21478thin, why in the name of wonder did you come?"
21478what''s that there?"
61659Are you hit anywhere else?
61659Did you see any dead ones?
61659How is that?
61659How many have you?
61659Shall I bind these others ending in peace together, and give them to you in remembrance of what I have told you?
61659That is too bad,said I;"did you not put them away?"
61659What are the limits of his power?
61659What is he doing?
61659What is his purpose in coming to this part of the country?
61659What is that he is holding in his hands?
61659What is that? 61659 What is the matter?"
61659What is the matter?
61659What is this?
61659What is this?
61659Where are you going?
61659Where are your buffalo?
61659Where did you come from to- day, John?
61659Where?
61659Where?
61659Who is this mysterious being who talks with God?
61659Why did you not ask me?
61659Why did you not tell us the river was fordable?
61659Why,he asked,"what is the matter?"
61659Why,said I,"are there no provisions in the Fort?"
61659Will we go back?
61659Almost immediately I heard the report of a gun away down the river, and father called to me,"Did you hear that?"
61659Are human passions subject to cycles?
61659Are the spirits friendly?
61659Are these men moodish?
61659Are we immortal till that work is done, as this affects our present being?
61659As we had no gun with us, the question arose, how were we to procure anything for food?
61659B., are you ready now to apologize for, and take back the foul language you, without reason, heaped on me a little while since?"
61659But do you think we could wait until noon?
61659But the question which often puzzled me was,"When were they converted?"
61659But who was to reveal this better something to him?
61659By- and- bye I came across Peter some two miles from there, and the first question was,"Where is my gun?"
61659CHAPTER V. Mr. Woolsey''s ministrations-- An exciting foot- race-- Building operations-- Gardening-- Stolen(?)
61659Can you or any of your people make guns or ammunition?
61659Can you send those strong waters back up on the mountains from whence they came?
61659Can you stop yonder sun from rising in the morning?
61659Do they want our guns and clothes, our blankets and ammunition?
61659Has He a work for us to do?
61659I have injured the Fox,''and without looking back, I said,''What is it?''
61659I said,"Tom, are you ready?"
61659I shouted to him,"Where are you going?"
61659I took occasion to say to her,"Are you not afraid this peace may not last very long?"
61659If not, how were we to cross?
61659Is the hand of the Lord upon them?
61659Is the pound properly located?
61659Is the time propitious?
61659Is this a peace mood?
61659Is this the dip or the arch in the cycle influencing these men even against themselves to seek peace?
61659Later on the old chief returned, and I enquired of Maskepetoon,"Why this unusual ceremony?"
61659My next question was,"What are you looking for?"
61659Never mind, this man was of the true Puritan stock, and his pedigree, is it not written in heaven?
61659Presently I saw an old man, of singular appearance, approaching, and I said to Maskepetoon,"Who is that?"
61659So quickly did he do this that I was startled, and exclaimed,"What do you see back there?"
61659The unknown: Where were the friendly Indians and the buffaloes, and where was food to be found?
61659Then our visitor, having finished his harangue, disappeared as he came, and I said to Joseph, who understood the language,"What did he say?"
61659Then they saw the majestic old man, indifferent to them, engaged in looking into something he held in his hand:"What manner of man is this?"
61659Then why talk so foolishly and thoughtlessly?"
61659There he sat, his eyes bulging out with fear as he cried,"For God''s sake, John, what are you going to do?"
61659What is that you hold in your hand?"
61659What makes you pale?
61659What prevents them now?
61659What signified it to these men that the greatest of civil wars was then raging on the continent beside them?
61659When towards evening I came in on a cart- load of meat, he exclaimed:"What kept you so long?
61659Why continue this any longer?
61659Why not invoke the help you profess to be able to call to your aid?
61659Will success or disaster be the result?
61659Will the medicine work?
61659Will"Who- Brings- Them- In"be wise in his handling of the buffalo?
61659Would we find a boat there or not?
61659You say you can easily wipe out the white men now in this country-- have you thought that they have the guns and the ammunition and the real strength?
21244Do you wish to smother me, man?
21244Fish?
21244Have you any flour?
21244Have you any potatoes?
21244Have you any tea?
21244Have you any venison?
21244Have you volunteered to go as a missionary to that far- off land?
21244He is your Father?
21244How many winters will pass by before that time comes?
21244Jack, my noble fellow,I said,"do you know that we are lost, and that it is very doubtful whether we shall ever see the Mission House again?
21244Then we are brothers?
21244WHERE IS THE MISSIONARY?
21244Waiting?
21244Well, here is this letter; what are you going to do about it?
21244Well, why is it I never heard of him before, I wonder?
21244What about when it was too stormy for any one to go?
21244What did you do when it was too stormy to visit the nets?
21244What have you discovered?
21244What have you got, poor woman?
21244What were my words of three summers ago?
21244Why do you think so?
21244Why should I not wash?
21244Why, then,I said,"do you not worship the good Spirit?
21244Will you help my wife and children also to become Christians?
21244A RACE FOR LIFE IN A BLIZZARD STORM-- SAVED BY THE MARVELLOUS INTELLIGENCE OF JACK--"WHERE IS THE OLD MAN, WHOSE HEAD WAS LIKE THE SNOW- DRIFT?"
21244After a while I broke the silence by saying,"Where have you buried him?"
21244Again I asked:"Tell me, what have you done with the old man with the snow- white hair?"
21244As we arose from our knees, I quietly said to Mrs Young,"Have you any impression on your mind as to our duty in this matter?"
21244As we were poorly off for food, I was very much pleased, and said to him,"What shall I give you for this meat?"
21244At length he stopped, and as we came up to him we said,"Well, Tom, what is the matter?"
21244At length one of the sons spoke up and said,"Who is causing us all this trouble?"
21244Before I closed the first service I asked,"Where is the old man whose head was like the snow- drift?"
21244But what should we do then?
21244Do n''t you think you had better come back to him?''
21244Do you not remember, William, he said that if we ever got into great trouble, the Great Spirit was the best Friend to Whom to go to help us out?
21244Do you want anything more?"
21244He replies,"Do you see those balsams?
21244He that hath seen Me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?"
21244He turned to her and said, with something of his old enthusiasm,"Why should that thought trouble you, my dear?
21244Here is a beautiful illustration:--"WHERE ARE OUR CHILDREN?"
21244How can I help being happy?
21244How can we spare you?''
21244How is one part more sacred than the other?
21244I believe that dear Jesus will take me to that better land; but, mother, when you come, will you look for me until you find me?
21244I had been very bad, and had got very far away; how could I come back?
21244I quickly said to one of my men,"How much food have we?"
21244I said;"for what are you waiting?"
21244In a spirit that perhaps savoured too much of unbelief I cried out,"How long, O Lord, how long?
21244Is it any wonder that I became deeply attached to these Nelson River Indians?
21244Lifting up his eyes to mine, again he said,"May I say more?"
21244One day, in conversing with an old fine- looking Indian, I said to him,"What is your religion?
21244Said he,"Did you not go to Nelson River with dogs and Indians about two moons ago?"
21244She read it over carefully, and then, after a quiet moment, as was quite natural, asked,"What does this mean?"
21244So keeping my rifle to my shoulder, I shouted out,"Who''s there?"
21244Some of them had several miles to go; but what cared they on this glad day?
21244Somebody else said,"Have you the name of that boy who was accidentally shot in the leg?"
21244Speaking more loudly I said,"Samuel, my brother, you are in the Valley of the Shadow of Death; how is it with you?"
21244Suspecting the purpose for which I wanted it, he said,"What are you going to do with it?"
21244Tell me, Missionary, what must I do to please the Great Spirit, that I may get to that beautiful land, that I may meet my children again?"
21244Their minds were dark; would I soon come back and bring in the light?
21244Then again he asked,"Who did you say was the author or inventor of these characters?"
21244Then he said, while his eyes and voice yearned for the answer,"Does it mean He is my Father-- poor Indian''s Father?"
21244Then we asked,"Are you willing to run the risk, and avail yourselves of this chance to do a glorious act?"
21244This seemed to astonish them, and they said:"What has he got to talk about that is more important than the treaty?"
21244Was not she a Saulteaux, and had not she a right to know of this new way, about which so much was being said?
21244When shall the time arrive when` nations shall be born in a day''?
21244Why do Thy chariot wheels delay?"
21244Why do you make and worship idols?"
21244Why resign your position?"
21244what is that?"
18216Am I a foe or a friend? 18216 Brothers, why are ye so foolish as to put yourselves in the hands of those that wait for you?"
18216Do you love the Algonquin?
18216Do you love the French?
18216Fools,cried Radisson, striking a beaver skin across an Indian''s shoulder,"will you fight the Iroquois with beaver pelts?
18216How many have you, Ben?
18216What brings that man here( speaking of M. Desnoyers)? 18216 What could we do?"
18216What fairer bastion than a good tongue,Radisson demands cynically,"especially when one sees his own chimney smoke?
18216Who are you?
18216Who-- fire-- on-- us?
18216Are these the Mandans?
18216As they stepped into their canoe, the sentry demanded,"Who goes?"
18216But what lay just beyond this Assiniboine Valley?
18216Could the Iroquois suffer a youth to live who had joined the murderers of the Mohawks?
18216Could the Mohawks afford to offend the great Iroquois chief who was the French youth''s friend?
18216Cut off from all comfort, from all encouragement, from all restraint, what set of men ever had fewer incentives to go up, more temptations to go down?
18216Did Radisson realize what the discovery of the Great Northwest meant?
18216Did he realize the importance of his discovery?
18216Did it lie just beyond the horizon where skyline and prairie met, or did the trail of their quest run on-- on-- on-- endlessly?
18216Did the dauntless life stop too?
18216Do you not know the French way?
18216From the said lakes to go to lake Superior there is only one portage of 15(?).
18216Grant that, and the question arises, What people on the Missouri answer the description?
18216Had English ships come to winter on Nelson River?
18216Had Providence not placed the treacherous Iroquois in the hands of fifty Frenchmen?
18216Had he been deserted?
18216Had they decamped to massacre the Bow women and children left in the valley to the rear?
18216He had crossed the Divide, the first white man to cross the continent in the North; but how could he know whether to follow this stream?
18216How did the Chipewyans obtain these pelts from the Eskimo?
18216How far westward had they gone?
18216If a foe, why did you suffer me to live?
18216If not, was there an undiscovered world in the North, like Louisiana in the South?
18216If this were the beginning, what of the end?
18216If we have no courage, why did you not tell us?
18216If you have more wit than we, why did you not use it to defend yourselves against the Iroquois?
18216In the face of this, what are we to think of modern writers with a reputation to lose, who brush Radisson''s exploits aside as a possible fabrication?
18216In the face of this, what is to be said of the historian who calls Radisson''s adventures"a fabrication"?
18216In what direction should they go?
18216M. the Cardinal of Richelieu have inspired France with confidence by the humiliation of the Rochelois(?)
18216Man or beast-- which was to be master now?
18216Men of the North-- to turn back?
18216Of what good were the boats?
18216One can guess that the half- closed eyelids of his guards opened a trifle: was the mouse trying to get away from the cat?
18216Radisson''s figures are given as"pounds"; but by"_ L_"did he mean English"pound"or French livre, that is 17 cents?
18216Shall your children be slaves because you are cowards?
18216Taking him captive, they had tied him to burn him, when a slave squaw rushed out, crying:"What would you do?
18216That the intent of the entire Confederacy was hostile to Onondaga could not be mistaken; but what was holding the Indians back?
18216The Commerce was then in the hands of the Rochelois(?)
18216The canoe leaked like a sieve; but what did that matter?
18216The question is: Did he reach the Mississippi Valley before Marquette and Jolliet and La Salle?
18216The_ voyageurs_ could still fish through ice holes for food; but where was young Jean who was to bring up provisions from Michilimackinac?
18216Was the man pursued by Mohawks, or laying a trap to lure them within shooting range?
18216Was there a Northwest passage by water through this region to Asia?
18216Were these not the assassins of countless Frenchmen, the murderers of women, the torturers of children?
18216What a conquest would this be, at little or no cost?
18216What are they?
18216What had happened to the lake?
18216What had the English done?
18216What if Peace River did not lead to the west coast at all?
18216What if he were behind some other discoverer sent out by the Spaniards or the Russians?
18216What lay between the Hudson Bay and that Western Sea?
18216What lay between this river and that other great river on the eastern side of the mountains-- the Missouri?
18216What lay beyond-- the Beyond that had been luring them on and on, from river to river and land to land, for more than ten years?
18216What secrets lay in the Great Unknown?
18216What was the real reason of the Indian eagerness to conduct the white man to the"Far- Off- Metal River"?
18216What were Radisson''s thoughts?
18216What-- asked the rivals of the Company in London-- had been done in return for such national protection?
18216Whence came the wealth that revived the languishing trade of New France?
18216Where did the Mohawks get their guns?
18216Where did the Western Sea of which Spain had possession in the South lie towards the North?
18216Where did this river come from, and where did both rivers go?
18216Where was the Western Sea?
18216Which way should Mackenzie go?
18216Which way should they turn?
18216Who could be better qualified to go overland to Hudson Bay than the old missionary, loyal to France, of English birth, and beloved by the Indians?
18216Who could the newcomers be?
18216Who had sent these French to intercept the explorers?
18216Who will baptize our children?"
18216Why did they delay the massacre?
18216Why do you suppose you were brought to this fort?
18216Why had the Iroquois carried the Hurons away from the Frenchmen?
18216Why should not men reap of the love of God here?
18216Will you have your brethren, that love you, slain?
18216Will you live like a Huron in bondage, or have your liberty with the French?"
18216Would Radisson go on the war- path with the braves, or stay at home with the women and so lose the respect of the tribe?
18216Would the relatives of the dead Mohawks consider the wampum belts full compensation?
18216Wouldst kill me, too?"
18216[ 11] See State Papers, Canadian Archives: M. Frontenac, the commander of French(?)
18216[ 20]"Who am I?"
18216[ 5] What was to be done?
18216[ 8] Should they continue on the east side of the bay, or move west, where there would be no rivalry?
18216[ 8] Though the strange ship displayed an English ensign, the flag did not show the magical letters"H. B. C.""Whose commission have you?"
18216he demanded in plain English,"and what do you want?"
6283A man in there, is there?
6283Ai n''t there to be any punishment for men like him?
6283Am I tidy? 6283 Am I to be left alone?"
6283Are n''t you getting anything out of it?
6283Are n''t you--Chief?
6283But he has not come to the end of the path-- has he?
6283But is it a time for talk?
6283But who can tell? 6283 Ca n''t you understand?"
6283Did you hear that?
6283Did you see what happened to him?
6283Do you need a walk so very badly?
6283Do you never take a gun with you?
6283Does n''t make any bones about it, does he? 6283 Got a little deeper in the mire, have you, boys?"
6283Have n''t we done our part?
6283Have you forgotten the Sentence of the Patrin?
6283Have you seen Jethro Fawe lately?
6283He will see-- he will see again?
6283Heard anything more about Marchand-- where he is?
6283Hell, so that''s what you''ve learned in the Gorgio world, is it?
6283How did you know it was dark- red?
6283I''ll try to understand,she replied presently;"Tell me, then: have they put someone in my place?"
6283In what?
6283Is he dead?
6283Is he going far?
6283Is it my father? 6283 It was the manager?"
6283It''s all right, is n''t it?
6283Must a Romany bare his soul before a stranger?
6283Must a man who has been the voice of the Ry of Rys for the long years have no words face to face with the Ry''s daughter now that he is gone? 6283 Tell me what has happened?
6283They did not go with him?
6283Was I right? 6283 Was it really a guess?"
6283What did the Chief do?
6283What do you think Mr. Max Ingolby, Esquire, would do? 6283 What floor?"
6283What is it you want to say to me?
6283What is it you wish to say to me, Rhodo?
6283What is it?
6283What news?
6283What road is that?
6283What was it you said to all of them outside?
6283What would you like for lunch?
6283What''s all this?
6283When did you have a fire last, Billy?
6283Where do you walk?
6283Where has he gone?
6283Who can tell? 6283 Who is running the show?"
6283Why did you omit Madame Bulteel and myself when you mentioned those who showed their-- friendship?
6283Will you let me kiss you?
6283Will you wear this for me?
6283Would you like to come home to the Ry?
6283Would you like to come?
6283You do n''t mean that a penalty could touch you?
6283You mean, since you came here?
6283You will take him away?
6283Ai n''t men like that to be punished at all?"
6283As Gautry came reeling and plunging down the street, someone shouted,"Is there anyone in the house, Gautry?"
6283But did that look still inhabit the eyes of the soul?
6283But what might not happen before any rescue came?
6283Ca n''t you hear it in my voice?
6283Ca n''t you see it in my face?
6283Ca n''t you see me?"
6283Ca n''t you see me?"
6283Ca n''t you understand?"
6283Chickens come home to roost, do n''t they?
6283Could he then see, after all?
6283Dennis Doane''s the name, ai n''t it?
6283Did a Druse ever turn his cheek to be smitten?
6283Did they belong to each other, or were mankind only, as it were, vermin infesting the desirable world?
6283Did they belong to each other?
6283Do n''t you hear my heart beating?
6283Do n''t you understand-- but do n''t you understand?"
6283Do you hear?
6283Do you think that a Druse has any fear?
6283Do you think the Ry of Rys will forgive that?
6283Have I used Pears''soap?"
6283How did I know it was a fine day?
6283How long?"
6283I could n''t see it, but is there any reason why the mind should n''t see when the eyes are no longer working?
6283I wonder why?
6283If the New York man says the same, why despair?
6283In Mesopotamia?
6283Is it dark- red?"
6283Is it not well with him?
6283Is there any body in the house?
6283Is there anybody in the house?"
6283Love and money could n''t buy it-- isn''t that so?"
6283Marchand spoiled his wife- run away with her up along the Wind River, eh?"
6283Or did she only mean to betray her; to give her a fancied security, and leave her to Jethro-- and the night?
6283Or was it gazing across the valley?
6283Speculated in my railways, eh?
6283Stretching out a hand, Ingolby gave a crisp laugh and said:"So there''s been trouble since I''ve been gone, has there?"
6283Tell me what has happened?"
6283The manager?"
6283Then she said to him with an anxious note in her voice:"What do you know about my life- about the''great change,''as you call it?"
6283Then, with a swift change of voice and manner, he added,"How long is it?"
6283Was there some other vision commanding its sight?
6283What did it mean?
6283What had happened between that time and this day of fate for Lebanon and Manitou?
6283What has happened?"
6283What was the matter with the bank?
6283What was the new thing in her carriage which captured his eye?
6283Where do you think you are?
6283Where was the woman that brought her to the tent-- whose tent it was?
6283Why did Ingolby come to remind them of better days gone-- of his own rashness, of what they had lost through that rashness?
6283Why had he come?
4515A dream?
4515Ammunition?
4515And after that-- you saw him?
4515And change black into the color of the sun?
4515And how much farther have we to go?
4515And if he HAD I guess you''d have let me smash his brains out when he was bending over the stove, would n''t you?
4515And yet you have seen white women at Fort Churchill, at York Factory, at Lac la Biche, at Cumberland House, and Norway House, and at Fort Albany?
4515And you will believe me if I tell you the rest?
4515And you?
4515And-- grub?
4515Bless your heart, you do n''t want to see me beat out of a breakfast, do you?
4515Ca n''t understand her, eh?
4515Do n''t you know how these Kogmollock heathen look on a father- in- law?
4515Do you suppose he was afraid of YOU?
4515How did you get HERE?
4515How far have we come, Bram?
4515Is that it, little girl? 4515 Is that why he does n''t leave even the butcher- knife in this shack?
4515It makes one shiver, eh, Pierre? 4515 It''s you they want, eh?
4515Shall I throw out my bed?
4515So it''s YOU?
4515So you''re Philip Raine, of the R. N. M. P., eh? 4515 The-- the-- WHAT?"
4515What did she say, Olaf?
4515What do I WANT of her?
4515Where did you start from, and where did you come ashore? 4515 Why do n''t you talk?
4515Why-- talk?
4515You believe me, M''sieu?
4515You do n''t understand a cussed word of it, do you?
4515You have never seen hair the color of this, Pierre?
4515You mean Anderson-- Olaf Anderson-- and the others up at Bathurst Inlet?
4515Your-- your father?
4515And I must be careful and not let you know it, must n''t I?
4515And I''m wondering, after you kill me, and they kill you, WHO''LL HAVE THE GIRL?
4515And for what reason were mysterious enemies coming after her through the gray dawn?
4515And had he guessed correctly?
4515And if dissimulation-- why?
4515And keeping yourself in the background while your Kogmollocks did the work?
4515And then he suddenly added,"Celie, have you any more cartridges for this pop- gun?
4515And was it possible that the girl did not guess her danger as she stood there?
4515And what even would the club avail?
4515And where-- WHERE in God''s name are we going?"
4515And why, Philip asked himself, did these savage little barbarians of the north want HER?
4515But WHY had she come, and what had happened to make her the companion or prisoner of Bram Johnson?
4515But how in Heaven''s name did you get HERE?"
4515But how was he to discover that fact?
4515But would their enemies return?
4515But would you understand?
4515Ca n''t you answer?
4515Can you leave your foxes and poison- baits and your deadfalls long enough for that?"
4515Damned funny, ai n''t it?"
4515Did you see that fellow topple off the fence?
4515Did you split even on the cartridges?"
4515Do I make myself clear?
4515Do you understand?
4515Do you?"
4515Eh, what''s that?"
4515Great Scott, ca n''t you give me some sort of an idea of who you are and where you same from?"
4515Had he twice made a fool of himself?
4515Have you a spare pipeful of tobacco, Phil?
4515How many men you got?"
4515How the devil did you do it?
4515If you have-- let''s see, where did I leave off in that story about Princess Celie and the Duke of Rugni?"
4515Is n''t it in your mind?"
4515It makes one think of-- WHAT?
4515Meanwhile we''ll get a little start for home, eh?
4515Nice little package for her to have opened, eh?"
4515Now, if you were n''t afraid of Bram, and if he has n''t hurt you, why did you look like that?
4515Now-- I wonder WHY?"
4515Now-- what in God''s name does it mean?
4515Or-- had he faith in his prisoner?
4515See those little groups forming?
4515Shall we light some of Bram''s candles?"
4515Should he have winged Bram Johnson, three times a murderer, in place of offering him a greeting?
4515Should he knock the wolf- man''s brains out as he knelt there?
4515So-- is it strange that he should snare rabbits with, a woman''s hair?"
4515That''s it-- would you understand that I love every inch of you from the ground up or would you think I was just beast?
4515The OTHERS?
4515There was an unmistakable irony in his voice when he said:"It''s funny, Raine, that I should like you, ai n''t it?
4515Understand?
4515Understand?
4515Understand?
4515Was Bram Johnson actually mad-- or was he playing a colossal sham?
4515Was he afraid you might shoot him in his sleep if he left the temptation in your way?"
4515Was it conceivable, he asked himself, that the Eskimos had some reason for NOT killing Paul Armin, and that Celie was aware of the fact?
4515Was it not a long, long time ago, and had she not in that time become, flesh and soul, a part of him?
4515Was it not possible that the spying Kogmollocks had seen him go away on the hunt, and had taken advantage of the opportunity to attack the cabin?
4515Was it only this morning that he had first seen her, he asked himself?
4515Was it possible that Bram was striking straight north for Coronation Gulf and the Eskimo?
4515Was it possible that he understood her?
4515Was it possible that his shots had frightened Bram?
4515Was it possible that she had comprehended some word or thought of what he had expressed to her?
4515Was that it?"
4515Was the suspicion real and the stupidity a clever dissimulation?
4515What chance could this other man have?
4515What do you want of this girl, and what have you done with her people?"
4515What had brought her to the barren Arctic coast of America?
4515What has happened?
4515What''s yours?"
4515Where are we going?
4515Where is he?"
4515Who is she?
4515Who was she?
4515Who were the mysterious enemies from whom Bram the madman had saved her?
4515Why are you here with a madman and a murderer?"
4515Why did you wait until this morning?
4515Why do n''t you talk, and let me know who she is, and why she is here, and what you want me to do?"
4515Why had she gone to Siberia?
4515Why not be human?
4515Why was she with Bram Johnson?
4515Why you no shoot when I am there-- at head of pack?"
4515Why, then, had he not attacked him the night of the caribou kill?
4515Would n''t you?"
4515You landed from that ship, did n''t you?
4515You''re from Denmark?
6281''Mi Duvel'', but who would think-- ah, did you hear me call then?
6281Ah, you give in to that which wo n''t hurt you--"Would n''t you hurt me?
6281Am I the only woman that has armed herself against you and such as you? 6281 And have you read of me in the printed sheets?
6281And his people go to it still- was that where you were going when I broke in on you?
6281Are you able to walk now?
6281But she ai n''t a chief-- what''s the use of her doin''it? 6281 Dead?"
6281Did you fly? 6281 Do you speak Romany?"
6281Do you think you can impress me by saying things like that?
6281Gipsy-- is that so?
6281Hail and blessing, my Ry, was there need of printed pages to tell me that? 6281 Has Tekewani got a lodge about here?"
6281How am I always with you when I am needed, truant?
6281How did you get here?
6281Hurt you? 6281 I could n''t very well decline, could I?"
6281I''m not Irish-- do I look Irish?
6281Is he dead?
6281Is my tongue as sharp as that?
6281Is only the Gorgio to embrace the Romany lass? 6281 Is she a heretic, then, madame?"
6281Is she dead?
6281Is that the Western slang for saying he belongs nowhere?
6281May n''t I go with you?
6281Personal harm?
6281Rogue, what have you to say of such things?
6281Since when were you my husband?
6281That''s right, is n''t it?
6281Then you know all that is working against you in Manitou-- working harder than ever before?
6281Was it really you who started those factories?
6281What are my plans?
6281What did she do?
6281What do you want with me, my Romany''chal''?
6281What have you to do with my daughter?
6281What is it you want to do with Manitou and Lebanon?
6281What is the Romany word for hedgehog?
6281What is your own?
6281What mills-- in Manitou?
6281What shall we do?
6281What was the history of Aunt Cynthy?
6281What were you going to say?
6281When have you seen her since the day before the tent of Lemuel Fawe now seventeen years ago?
6281When?
6281Where are you going?
6281Where?
6281Who are you that you should come? 6281 Who is he?"
6281Who is it-- some of the heathen from the Reservation?
6281Who is she?
6281Who shot Carillon Rapids?
6281Why not? 6281 With such queer ones, who knows?
6281Wo n''t you sit down?
6281Would you mind telling me where you got your information?
6281Yes-- but?
6281You do n''t like Felix Marchand?
6281You give in to Manitou?
6281You have heard?
6281You have set him free?
6281You mean you wo n''t go free from here? 6281 You really wish to know-- you do n''t know?"
6281You would have shot me-- you are armed?
6281Am I a chattel to be bartered by any will except my own?
6281Am I deceived, I who have known more liars than any man under the sky?
6281Am I to be fooled, who have seen so many fools in their folly?
6281But who says all that?
6281Did he think that because he had done her a great service, he could say casually what belonged only to the sacred moments of existence?
6281Did he think that he could say a thing of that sort to her-- when he pleased?
6281Did not the beautiful Russian countess on the Volga flee from her liege lord and share his''tan''?
6281Did they tell you where I was to be found?"
6281Do you hear the Rapids calling-- the Rapids of Carillon?"
6281Do you hear the river singing towards Carillon?
6281Do you not see?"
6281Do you see the wild birds flying towards Carillon?
6281Do you?"
6281Does not the whisper pass as the lightning flashes?
6281For long it had been an obsession with her-- as though some spirit whispered in her ear--"Do you hear the bells ringing at Carillon?
6281Had he not read in books which so few have learned to read?
6281Had the last few years given her the civic sense, the home sense?
6281Have I said or done anything that a Gorgio duke would n''t do?
6281Have you any special news about it?"
6281Have you forgotten all, my Ry?
6281Have you heard anything?"
6281Have you no heart?"
6281Have you seen many men drunk?"
6281How does the star sweep across the sky?
6281How does the wind go?
6281How should she know?
6281If the fountain is choked, how shall the water run?"
6281If the hand be cut off, how shall the body move?
6281Is it Irish, or-- do you mind my asking?
6281Is not everything known of the Ry to the Romany people without the written or printed thing?
6281Is there a Romany camp at Scutari?
6281It is singing, is n''t it?"
6281Shall it not know what is the news of the Bailies of Scotland and the Caravans by the Tagus?
6281She knew she had been selfish, but would Gabriel Druse understand?
6281So where should he go if not to the Railway?
6281To that, with a sly quirk of the mouth, and meaning to mystify his wooden- headed questioner still more, he answered:"Dead- struck?
6281Was he inferior to such as Ingolby, or even Tekewani?
6281Was he no better than such as Jethro Fawe?
6281What Romany ever constructed anything?
6281What are the wild waves saying?
6281What are your plans?"
6281What do the priests-- what does Monseigneur Lourde say to it all?"
6281What had she a right to tell?
6281What have you heard, Jethro, son of Lemuel?"
6281What is it I have that you come for?"
6281What is your race?
6281What makes you say he means personal harm?
6281What must she say?
6281What was it her duty to say?
6281What was it made the difference between the two?
6281What''s the good of havin''your own way with one that''s the apple of your eye, if it turns her agin you?
6281What''s the noise they make in the heart, if it''s not singing?
6281When he played his fiddle to the Austrian princess, did she not give him a key to the garden where she walked of an evening?
6281Wherefore should she know?
6281Who raises the cry of''wolf''in Manitou?"
6281Why are you here?
6281Why does n''t Ma''m''selle wear them?"
6281Why should she do it?
6281Why was Fleda Druse tempting death in the Carillon Rapids?
6281Why?
6281Would he turn his face away in disgust?
6281Yet was this so after all?
6281Yet, was he so illiterate?
6715All of them are-- dead?
6715And I-- may-- stay?
6715And what do you expect to take-- afterward?
6715And you are familiar with our laws governing insubordination and conduct unbecoming an officer of the service?
6715And you will never come to me again?
6715And you''re going to stick?
6715Are they-- married?
6715Are you a-- relative?
6715Are you alone?
6715Are you very much afraid-- for her?
6715Billy, you ai n''t going to hunt him up, are you? 6715 Blake, you say?
6715Blue eyes?
6715David-- David-- is it you?
6715Did n''t think I knew you, did you, Billy?
6715Do n''t you see-- do n''t you understand? 6715 Foolish idea, was n''t it?
6715God... that kid... You, do n''t know how I got to love her, Billy,... give her up...What did it mean?
6715Had a pretty good chance to get me, if you''d been alone, did n''t you, Bucky?
6715Have a good nap?
6715Head hurt?
6715How about going out with me to get some wood?
6715How''s your head?
6715Hungry, eh, little one? 6715 Hurt?"
6715I am better and-- and-- it is over?
6715It''s you they want, eh? 6715 My God, Bill, is that the sun?"
6715My Jeanne has blue eyes--"And have they little brown dots in them like a wood violet?
6715Nervous?
6715No- o- o--"They''re blue, just blue, ai n''t they?
6715Of course you''re going back for her?
6715Pelly, did you ever-- ever notice eyes-- very closely?
6715Seems queer, do n''t it, Billy?
6715She''s not dead?
6715So it''s you, is it?
6715So it''s you, is it?
6715So it''s you?
6715The man who stole little Isobel,he breathed--"who was he?"
6715The-- the baby?
6715There is no doubt in your mind that I hold a sergeancy in the service, is there, Walker?
6715Understand? 6715 Was it that damned half- breed?"
6715What do you mean?
6715What do you say, Billy?
6715What has happened? 6715 What if you had to write this twice a year?"
6715What in Heaven''s name are you driving at?
6715What in thunder did you expect to do if you caught''em, Billy? 6715 What was that?"
6715What''s the matter, Mac?
6715What''s your game?
6715What?
6715Where''s mine?
6715Where''s the woman?
6715Where''s your grub, pardner?
6715Who are you, and where in Heaven''s name did you come from?
6715Who are you,''n''where''d you come from? 6715 Who is there in Churchill that I can get to go with me?"
6715Who''s with you?
6715Will you eat it there?
6715Will you shake?
6715Will you take some of it, Isobel? 6715 Yes-- yes-- I am tired--""And hungry and cold?"
6715You are tired, little girl?
6715You do n''t want to be sick, do you? 6715 You know how the wolves hunt, Pelly,"said MacVeigh--"in a moon- shape half circle, you know, that closes in on the running game from in front?
6715You may think me a little mad,he said,"but do you care if I tell you about that blue flower?"
6715You met him?
6715You want a fight, do you, boys?
6715You wo n''t kill her?
6715You wo n''t kill my baby? 6715 You wo n''t think that I''ve gone mad, will you, or that I''m saying or doing anything that''s wrong?
6715You''re going to take her to her mother?
6715You''re sure you''ve told me everything, Pelly? 6715 You''ve got a little decency in your hide, have n''t you?
6715You?
6715Your half- breed had pretty long hair, did n''t he?
6715After a moment he turned and asked again:"What was that?"
6715After all, did that golden hair, that white woman''s hair, mean nothing?
6715After all, was there much to choose between the three of them?
6715Ai n''t there one of that lingo among you?"
6715And after that what would be left for him?
6715And if she died why should he-- Billy MacVeigh-- tell him anything about little Isobel?
6715And where-- where-- is she?"
6715But would he tell the truth of what had happened after that?
6715Did you hear the drum?
6715Do you mind-- telling me?"
6715Do you suppose-- the dead man-- might be her father?"
6715Do you understand?
6715Drag the woman back by the hair of''er''ead?
6715Geoffrey Renaud?
6715Got any tobacco?"
6715Had a madness of some sort driven all human instincts from them?
6715He heard a voice which came to him from a great distance, and which said,"Who the hell is this?"
6715He stopped and asked:"Can you tell me where Geoffrey Renaud lives?"
6715How far had they come, he wondered?
6715How had she come to be with the Eskimo woman and Blake?
6715How much of a start of us has he and that squaw that''s traveling with him got?"
6715Hungry?
6715I do n''t suppose-- we''d dare-- bring out the kid?"
6715If we''re killed and the cabin burned, who''s going to say what happened to us?
6715Is it the house you want to see-- or Renaud?"
6715Just go back-- an''bring her to the door, will you?
6715Not so bad, was it?"
6715Now, I wonder why?"
6715Of course, you''re anxious to get back your stolen outfit?"
6715Pretty good tent, is n''t it?"
6715Remember my promise, Billy?
6715She sent it, do you hear, boy?
6715She''s too little to remember, ai n''t she?
6715Starving?"
6715The inspector in charge stared at him twice, and then cried,"My God, is it you, MacVeigh?"
6715Then he said:"Renaud?
6715Then she said, faintly:"You have been alone?"
6715There was n''t anything in his pockets?
6715They''re bushed, and they''ve given the chase up as a bad job, so what''s the use of making a fool of yourself?
6715Understand?
6715Was it possible that these were people of his own kind?
6715Was it possible, he asked himself, that there could be some association between Isobel and Little Mystery?
6715Was there a chance there, he wondered?
6715What had McTabb told him in that part of the letter that was gone?
6715What miracle could be bringing them back?
6715What tragedy had placed her here?
6715What was that?
6715What would he find?
6715Where did you get her?
6715Where there''s dogs there''s men-- but who in Heaven''s name can they be?"
6715Where''s your mama''n''your papa?"
6715Who are they?"
6715Who was this little abandoned mite?
6715Who were her father and her mother, and where were they?
6715Why are you away up here?
6715Why did n''t I bring a cup?"
6715Will you bring in a light?"
6715Will you go into the tent-- with her?"
6715Would n''t you think so?"
6715You searched well?"
6715You wo n''t think I mean wrong, will you, if I tell you?
6715You would n''t rob her father, would you?
6715You''re-- you''re goin''to be there, ai n''t you, Billy?"
6715You''ve got my letter safe?"
6715what does this mean, old man?"
18495''Gat Gardiner?'' 18495 ''Where did you get the lot?''
18495And what did you say to him?
18495Arm them?
18495Before the advent of the railroad and the steamboat, which was the longest of the Company''s packet routes?
18495But do either of the traders know you have it?
18495But how could he fire his gun if his canoe had drifted away?
18495But, Billy, why did n''t you shoot it?
18495Did he always bring your grandmother a present?
18495Did you bring back anything?
18495Do the Company''s officers experience much trouble in procuring men to act as packeteers?
18495Gude day, man Oo- koo- hoo, what can I do for ye the day?
18495Have you much fur?
18495How many miles a day do the packeteers average on their winter trips?
18495How many wolverines,I asked,"do you suppose are causing all the trouble on your and Amik''s trapping paths?"
18495If I have what you have n''t got,my host smiled,"will you dine with me?"
18495In what have I failed?
18495May I use your stove to cook breakfast?
18495My son, perhaps you wonder why I did not use my gun? 18495 Shoot?
18495Speaking of feeding, what do you consider the best food for dogs?
18495Then kerosene is not included in the regular rations the Company supplies for its trippers and voyageurs?
18495What does Spring mean to you town folk, anyway? 18495 What does it mean to the man of the woods?
18495What was it?
18495What''s that?
18495Would you look as well upon a black fox?
18495You know how bears will act when they sometimes comes across a handy log? 18495 ''Got any weapons on you?'' 18495 ( What cheer, what cheer?) 18495 After all-- was he but a fond parents''dream? 18495 Again, I wondered whoSon- in- law"could be?
18495All at once I heard the dogs blowin''so hard----""Blowing?"
18495And when the male comes, what does the female do?
18495Are you ashamed?"
18495But does not the one exception prove the rule?
18495But of what use was one snowshoe?
18495But perhaps you are wondering about the beautiful Athabasca?
18495But why have you not more improved since you have long had the opportunity from our example?
18495But,"smiled Oo- koo- hoo,"she was devoured with curiosity; and, besides, was not her young lover with her?
18495Could any country in the world have chosen a more inspiring creature than Canada has chosen for her national symbol?
18495Could any nation choose a creature more fit for a national emblem?
18495Did we not eat the fat and the blood, and use the firewood he left at our door?''
18495Did you ever meet a character like that in northern fiction?
18495Did you like the play?"
18495First he responded with a burst of laughter, then with the question:"Why, what''s the use of getting up?"
18495Furthermore, when people exclaim:"What''s the matter with the movies?"
18495Had I done anything to displease her?
18495Had they not lent a hand in the winning of the treasure that was floating away?
18495Have you one?"
18495How did I manage it?
18495How did it happen?
18495How?
18495How?
18495Hunt the world over, and could one find any more holy places than some of Nature''s sanctuaries?
18495I asked him to explain, but he only laughed knowingly, so I turned the subject by asking:"Does an animal ever eat the bait after it is caught?"
18495I was afraid he was going to turn in, so I quickly asked:"Which is the longest of the Company''s packet routes at the present day?"
18495I would ask him:"Why do you stay in bed?"
18495If the latter, what sign or signal would he use so that they might keep in touch with him?
18495Is it any wonder the red man laughs?
18495Is that a fact?"
18495It made me think of the shy but radiant Athabasca, and I wondered-- was her lover with her now?
18495Knowing that the hunter had wanted to procure more than one moose I asked him why he had not at once pursued the other?
18495Lest something interesting should be lost, I ventured:"Was it the Bishop or the Commissioner that made the trouble?"
18495Next I asked Oo- koo- hoo in which direction men usually turned when lost in the woods-- to the right or to the left?
18495No wonder Shing- wauk-- The Little Pine-- sang his love song, too, for was not his heart aflame with the spring time of life?
18495No, of course not; how could you?
18495Of course such ideas seem strange to us, but, after all, are we in a position to ridicule the Indians''belief?
18495Presently the Factor and I were alone for a few moments and he growled:"Whit d''ye think o''the auld de''il?"
18495Publish it?
18495Queer, is n''t it, the way women sometimes affect one?
18495She, too, set me wondering; was she thinking of Son- in- law?
18495So now, do you wonder that I laugh?"
18495So what do you think the cunnin''brute did?
18495Some of the packeteers, I should judge, have made great records; have n''t they?"
18495Spear got up and, getting a picture book, asked:"Mr. Heming, are you fond of pictures?
18495Spear turned to me and beamed:"Does n''t Athabasca look radiantly beautiful?"
18495Strange, is n''t it, that the writers of northern novels never depict a scene like that?
18495THE LONGEST BRIGADE ROUTES After a little while I asked:"What was the longest route of the old- time canoe and boat brigades?"
18495Tell me now why and from whence you come?"
18495The dwelling- house was closed, the store shut up, the man in charge had not yet come up from St. John''s; now what was to be done?
18495The great canoe swings as though upon a pivot; for is not the steersman doing exactly the very opposite at this precise moment?
18495Then I wondered-- was this the man?
18495Then, too, is not any production of the creative arts-- a poem, a story, a play, a painting, or a statue-- but a reflection of the composer''s soul?
18495To prevent it from being soiled or torn?
18495V MEETING OF THE WILD MEN WHO IS SON- IN- LAW?
18495Was it Son- in- law?
18495Was it any wonder I was happy?
18495Was it in the same way that her young white man had come so many miles on snowshoes through the winter woods just to call upon her?
18495Was it not going to build a fleet of steamers to ply upon the lakes and rivers in that section?
18495Were they not bidding farewell to fathers, husbands, brothers, sons, or lovers, chosen as the best men from their village?
18495What did it all mean?
18495What do they do when they want a mate?
18495What was it thinking about?
18495What would you give to live such a peaceful life?
18495Whence did he come?
18495Whenever your forefathers were smitten with hunger or disease, who looked after them?
18495Who gave you your debt last fall and made it possible for you to hunt this winter?
18495Who sells you the best goods?
18495Why do you not believe mine?''
18495Why need she fear?
18495Why the mirth?"
18495Why, your reverence, do n''t you know, packeteers never carries a gun?"
18495Why?
18495Will you?"
18495Would I go?
18495Would he himself skin and cut up the bear, or would he want the women to help him?
18495_ wat- che_?"
18495asked The Bear,"for would not his gun be in his canoe?"
18495could he be"Son- in- law"?
18495do n''t you think it would be a good thing if you took son- in- law into partnership?"
18495indeed?
18495indeed?"
18495not just this week, this month, or this season, but what is actually occurring day by day, throughout the cycle of an entire year?
18495roared the Factor,"what is''t the noo?"
18495what is daily going on in the Great Northern Forest?
32236An''what for wu''d a leave it eating a''the oatmeal? 32236 And when no sound comes back?"
32236Could the white man run fast?
32236How could they do that if they were not alive?
32236Montagnais? 32236 What do you do when the clouds catch you on this sort of a ledge?"
32236Add to that the twenty shot, and what does the day''s work represent?
32236Afraid?
32236And were the men carving a way through the wilderness only the bushwhackers who have pioneered other forest lands?
32236And what did MacDougall do?
32236And what place in the scale of destruction does the trapper occupy?
32236And what was the alert North- West Company doing?
32236And who are the subjects living under this Mosaic paternalism?
32236Are such onslaughts common among bears, or are they the mad freaks of the bear''s nature?
32236Besides, what''s this across the creek?
32236Black fox turning to a dull gray of midsummer may not be silver fox; but what about gray fox turning to the beautiful glossy black of midwinter?
32236But how about Mr. Blue Fox of the same size and habit as the white Arctic?
32236But that was enough for Koot-- it was prompt answer to his prayer; for where do the jays quarrel and fight and flutter but on the trail?
32236But what does that matter?
32236But what of the ruthless slaughter among the little musk- rats?
32236Colter afraid?
32236Could it be the dog?
32236Did a man enlist?
32236Did he bear some message from the Nor''Westers to MacDougall?
32236Did the crushed spear- grass tell any tales of what had passed that mud hole?
32236Do these two, badger and coyote, consciously hunt together?
32236Does a husky fag?
32236Does every prospector expect to find gold nuggets?
32236Does he hope for a silver fox?
32236Does humanity not revolt at the thought?
32236Does the Indian trapper see all this?
32236Does the bird perch on a tree?
32236Does the mouse thread a hundred mazes and hide in a hole?
32236Does the rat hide under rock?
32236Enemies could be seen soon enough; but where could the trapper hide on bare prairie?
32236Had a piece of fungus been torn from a hemlock log?
32236Had not Colter crossed the Rockies with Lewis and Clark and spent two years in the mountain fastnesses?
32236Hang back and starve with him, or hasten forward while they had strength, to the party whose track they had espied?
32236Here the track is lost at the narrow ford of an inflowing stream, but across the creek lies a fallen poplar littered with-- what?
32236How did these coasters of the wilds guide themselves over prairies that were a chartless sea and mountains that were a wilderness?
32236How did these rulers of the wilds, these princes of the fur trade, live in lonely forts and mountain fastnesses?
32236How did they do it?
32236How does it feel benighted among those clouds?
32236How does the wavey know where to find the rush- grown inland pools?
32236How much farther would the cañon lead?
32236How were those fabulously costly skins prepared?
32236How would he get his directions to set out?
32236In which of the hundred water- ways in the labyrinth of pond and stream where beavers roam is this particular family to be found?
32236Is anything that man has ever done to the buffalo herd half as tragically pitiful as nature''s process of deposing a buffalo leader?
32236Is he a freak or a climax or the regular product of yearly climatic changes caught in the nick of time by some lucky trapper?
32236Is he the Arctic fox in summer clothing?
32236Is it the same with the silver fox?
32236Is silver fox simply a fine specimen of black caught at the very period when he is blooming into his greatest beauty?
32236Is that what makes silver fox?
32236Is the fire out?
32236Is this trapping not after all brutal butchery?
32236Is this true?
32236It is the old question, should animal life be sacrificed to preserve human life?
32236It was the Raccoon, and the British captain addressed the Astorians in words that have become historic:"_ Is this the fort I''ve heard so much about?

32236Once caught in the steel jaws, little wapistan must wait-- wait for what?
32236Or does he aim at bigger game?
32236Scrambling up, he saw that a stick had caught the web of his snow- shoe; but where was the barrel for which he had been steering?
32236Should Vanderburgh stay or follow?
32236Should he turn back?
32236Should the Americans follow or stay?
32236Should they go higher up or not?
32236Should they shoot in the half- dark?
32236That brings up the question-- what is a silver fox?
32236The children''s hour, has a great poet called a certain time of day?
32236Then-- was it possible?--these grizzled fellows, dressed in tinkers''tatters, were singing-- what?
32236To- day where are the buffalo?
32236Was a_ voyageur_ on the point of embarking?
32236Was he not carrying the snared rabbits over his shoulder?
32236Was it wooded or clear plain above the walls?
32236Were n''t the mountaineers leaving a trifle too soon?
32236Were there other impressions dimmer on the dry mud?
32236What Indian would have so little sense?
32236What are the facts regarding the buffalo?
32236What brought about the change?
32236What did the ancient company care?
32236What gift has wapistan, the marten, to protect himself against all the powers that prey?
32236What had dug that hole?
32236What heeds the trapper?
32236What if he had crossed the trail?
32236What if the storm came and wiped out the trail before he could reach the fort?
32236What if this were the long- lost Mr. Hunt coming back from Alaskan trade on the Beaver?
32236What is the secret of the musk- rat''s survival while the strong creatures of the chase like buffalo and timber- wolf have been almost exterminated?
32236What man hunter would follow so far?
32236What ought they to do?
32236What quarry does he seek, this lawless forager of the upper airs still hunting a hidden nook of the low prairie?
32236What then?
32236What was it?
32236What was that noise?
32236What was the matter?
32236What would Blackfeet be doing, riding at a pace to make such thunder so close to a cañon?
32236Where did this family come from?
32236Where had the fugitive gone?
32236Where is the runway in which the others are hiding?
32236Where to go now?
32236Where was the master who had bidden them stand while he felt his way blindly through the white whirl of a blizzard for the lost path?
32236Which way does the newly- discovered footprint run?
32236Who had told Vanderburgh and Drips that the mountaineers were to meet at Pierre''s Hole in 1832?

32236Why did MacDougall lose his tone of courage with such surprising swiftness?
32236Why do they?
32236Why does it lie on its back rigid and straight as if it were dead with all four tiny paws clutched out stiff?
32236Why was Stuart, an honourable, fair- minded man, in such high dudgeon that he shook free of Thompson''s company on their way back up the Columbia?
32236Why, then, is there no capture?
32236Will he take it home and try the experiment of rearing a young mink with a family of kittens?
32236Will he wait out that long Northern night?
32236Would he then be so brave?

32236he asked thickly, fumbling with both hands,"what is done to my eyes?
11426Achille, you have n''t anything against me-- do you want me to die?
11426All is at peace between us?
11426All of that is quite true,he repeated after a second''s pause;"but what has it to do with me?
11426And in the meantime?
11426Are you just a little sorry for me?
11426Are you there, Galen Albret?
11426Are you? 11426 Better to take_ la Longue Traverse_ in summer, eh?"
11426But is it not a little calculating? 11426 But your heart?"
11426Ca n''t you see?
11426Do n''t you hear?
11426Do n''t you see the logic of events forces me to think so? 11426 Do n''t you think this farce is about played out?
11426Do you leave-- to- day?
11426Do you think I will tell you?
11426Do you wish me to go, father?
11426For w''at I want dat you die? 11426 Have you a canoe?"
11426Have you a rifle-- for_ la Longue Traverse_?
11426How could I know?
11426How you mak''eet him so mad? 11426 How you mak''eet him?"
11426I beleef you,responded Achille, cheerfully;"w''at you call heem your nam''?"
11426Is he gone?
11426Is that all?
11426Is the journey then so long, sir,she asked composedly,"that it at once inspires such anticipations-- and such bitterness?"
11426Is the trade so good, are your needs then so great, that you must run these perils?
11426Is there anything I can do for you?
11426Mademoiselle?
11426Must I decide at once?
11426No-- yes-- why not?
11426Shall I be sent out at once, do you think?
11426Sorry for a weakness you do not understand? 11426 Surely you can forgive me, a desperate man, almost anything?"
11426That you? 11426 Then why did you change your mind?"
11426Then why do you stay in this dreadful North?
11426Then why is he not our guest?
11426Then why?
11426This dreadful thing is necessary?
11426This_ Longue Traverse_,went on Albret,"what is your idea there?
11426Virginia goes with me?
11426Virginia, this is true?
11426Wat you do? 11426 Wat you wan''me do?"
11426Well?
11426What do you mean by that?
11426What do you mean?
11426What do you mean?
11426What do you want with me?
11426What does this mean?
11426What great danger is he in?
11426What happened?
11426What is his station? 11426 What is that?"
11426What is that?
11426What then?
11426What wrong?
11426What?
11426Who can tell?
11426Who is that man? 11426 Who told you?"
11426Who was that second person?
11426Who?
11426Whose?
11426Why did I come? 11426 Why did I come?"
11426Why did you come here, then? 11426 Why did you not ask me, as you intended?
11426Why not?
11426Why, if you have realized the gravity of your situation have you persisted after having been twice warned?
11426Why-- why did you come?
11426Why? 11426 Why?"
11426Why?
11426Why?
11426Will not the princess leave her sisters of dreams?
11426Will she recover?
11426You are going to Quebec?
11426You are going to do this thing, father,appealed Virginia,"after what I have told you?"
11426You can not mean that?
11426You consent? 11426 You do not believe me?"
11426You have everything you need?
11426You knew my father?
11426You knew this before?
11426You know who aided this man?
11426You love my daughter truly?
11426You persist in that nonsense?
11426You refuse?
11426You tell me of it yourself? 11426 You think so?"
11426You think so?
11426You were alone?
11426You?
11426Your father-- you knew him well?
11426Your right?
11426Am I forgiven?"
11426And that is a solemn thing; is it not?"
11426Are you going to treat your little girl so-- your Virginia?
11426Are you, indeed?"
11426But do I err in concluding that the state of your game law is such that it would be useless to reclaim my rifle from the engaging Placide?"
11426But last night----""Yes, last night?"
11426But where did you get this rifle?"
11426Can you ask that?
11426Did be not owe her, too, some reparation?
11426Did n''t you hear me calling you when you paddled away?
11426Did you come here to try_ la Longue Traverse_ of which you spoke to- day?"
11426Do n''t you see how I felt?
11426Do n''t you suppose I had weighed the risks and had made up my mind to take my medicine if I should be caught?
11426Do n''t you suppose I knew what I was about when I came into this country?
11426Do n''t you understand?"
11426Do you dare deny my will?
11426Do you dare interfere where I think well?
11426Do you dare set your judgment against mine?
11426Do you refuse?"
11426Do you think I have not been here often before I was caught?
11426Do you wish to know the real reason for my coming into this country, why I have traded in defiance of the Company throughout the whole Far North?
11426Does it touch you a little?
11426Does the Company own the Indians and the creatures of the woods?"
11426Does_ he_ give such orders?
11426Feel the wind on your cheek?
11426Had he nothing more to tell her?
11426Had she not heard it in the music of his voice from the first?--the passion of his tones?
11426Have there been men sent out since you came here?"
11426How could I help but come?
11426I believe I could touch her pity-- ah, Ned Trent, Ned Trent, can you ever forget her frightened, white face begging you to be kind?"
11426In what danger does he stand?
11426Is he a common trader?
11426She exclaimed, in astonishment,"Are you not of the Company?"
11426Since when has the Company confided in Andrew Laviolette, in Wishkobun, in_ you_?"
11426Surely you admit the injustice?"
11426That is a solemn thing, too, is it not?"
11426The hardships of the wilderness are many, the dangers terrible-- what more natural than that a man should die of them in the forest?
11426They have my goods-- but I----""You?"
11426Was not this an opportunity vouchsafed him to repair his ancient fault, to cleanse his conscience of the one sin of the kind it would acknowledge?
11426Was the word to lack, the word she needed so much?
11426Was this to be all?
11426What are you going to ask of me?"
11426What do you suppose I care what, or what not, any of this crew wants?
11426What does he want a rifle for?
11426What is your information?"
11426What must he think of her?
11426What other course is open to you?
11426What was the aid you asked of him?
11426When do I leave?"
11426Who is this man?"
11426Why am I stopped and sent out from the free forest?
11426Why did you come back?
11426Why did you come?"
11426Why did you tell me these lies?"
11426Why has it been kept from me alone?
11426Why is that?"
11426Will you not greet me?"
11426Will you promise to do that?"
11426Wo n''t you tell me about it?"
11426Would not you too mock and sneer?
11426Would not you, too, be bitter, mademoiselle?
11426Would you like to go to Quebec?"
11426You is come trade dose fur?
11426You will be there-- surely?"
11426_ He_?"
11426_ What_ is he?"
11426_ Who_ is he?
11426and where else did you expect to get it?"
11426the dreamy, lyrical swing of his talk by the old bronze guns?
11426whispered the voice, fantastically,"Will she not come?"
15401A what?
15401About played out, I guess?
15401And now say, did He not mean by those outstretched arms that for evermore the white tribes should dwell in the East and the red tribes in the West? 15401 And what will happen to the wife?"
15401Any conveyance thither?
15401Are there Crees around the fort?
15401Are they the greatest mountains in the world?
15401Are you shure he has it at all at all?
15401But if he calls on you?
15401But is not this the West?
15401By the road to the Lake of the Woods?
15401Can you give me a guide to Norway House?
15401Did he say he had had it himself?
15401Did he tell you any thing about the small- pox?
15401Did n''t I see it in his own hand?
15401Do you think it''s small- pox?
15401Had I come from it?
15401Has this man eaten other men?
15401How can you tell at this distance that he has come from the fort?
15401How far,asked I,"to the Lower Fort?"
15401If it was the same company,they- say,"how could they give our enemies, the Crees, guns and powder; for do they not give us guns and powder too?"
15401If the mosquitoes let us travel?
15401Is it possible you do n''t know who Stephen B. Douglas was?
15401Is that Colonel Wolseley?
15401Is the Company there, too?
15401Is there no help for him?
15401Not know who Stephen B. Douglas was?
15401Our father, Karkakonias, has come back to us,they said;"why does he not tell his children of the medicine of the white man?
15401Pat,said an American to a staring Irishman lately landed,"did you ever see such a fall as that in the old country?"
15401Pork or beef?
15401Pork,would answer the trembling feeder;"Beef or pork?"
15401The French-where was I, in France?
15401The man of sin--which of us is without it?
15401The''Samaria broke her shaft, did n''t she, last voyage, and was a missing ship for a month?
15401Upon your own showing we are here 1000 miles from New York, by water 1500 miles to Quebec; surely this must be the West?
15401Was it a large force?
15401Well, Chaumon, going to trade again?
15401What for you put on one side tea or sugar, and on the other a little bit of iron?
15401What is he saying?
15401What is it?
15401What is it?
15401What is that?
15401What is the name of this place?
15401What steamer sails on Wednesday for America?
15401What were they like?
15401Where are you going to?
15401Where are you going?
15401Where the road comes down to the lakethe Indian had seen the troops; where was that spot?
15401Where was the Expedition?
15401Where?
15401Why so?
15401Why?
15401You''re come up to look after work on this North Pacific Railroad, I guess?
15401-Can I say any thing that Will give the reader an idea of its sufficing quality?
15401All that can be gained by the back- current has been gained, and now it is time to quit it; but where?
15401And was there not a flag other than the Union Jack flying over Fort Garry?
15401But what of all that?
15401Cloud-- Sauk Rapids--"Steam Pudding or Pumpkin Pie?"
15401D.?"
15401D.?"
15401Did not every thing point to his disappearance under the new order of things?
15401Did the sky mirror the earth, even as the ocean mirrors the sky?
15401Douglas?"
15401Go back again on the steam- boat and come up next trip-- would I?
15401Had not my companion been arrested and threatened with instant death?
15401Has the packet arrived?
15401He asked them"why were their faces black and their hearts heavy?
15401He would suddenly appear with his guns from the woods?
15401How shall we picture it?
15401How shall we tell the story of that great, boundless, solitary waste of verdure?
15401I had forgotten, what was the packet to him?
15401I niver did; but look here now, why would n''t it fall?
15401I tell him that"the Great Mother wishes her red children to live at peace; but what is the use?
15401IT may have occurred to some reader to ask, What is this company whose name so often appears upon these pages?
15401If any person should feel inclined to ask,"What does pemmicau taste like?"
15401If they meant him fair, why did they not say so?
15401In a little time several Indians appeared, and I questioned them as to the Expedition; had they seen or heard of it?
15401Is it any wonder that, applying his own simple tests to so much conflicting testimony, he becomes utterly confused, unsettled, and suspicious?
15401Is it not always the news of war?
15401Is it to eliminate from the human race the evil habits of each nationality, and to preserve in the new one the noble characteristics of all?
15401Is our father dumb that he does not speak to us of these things?"
15401Listening attentively, I gathered the following dialogue:"Do you think he has got it about him?"
15401May I ask, sir, what course you ordered to be steered upon receipt of that information?"
15401One asks oneself, with feelings of dread, what is to be the result?
15401Our Cousins-- Doing America-- Two Lessons-- St. Cloud- Sauk Rapids--"Steam Pudding or Pumpkin Pie?"
15401Terrible deeds have been wrought out in that western land; terrible heart- sickening deeds of cruelty and rapacious infamy-- have been, I say?
15401The Expedition, where was it?
15401The usual interrogatory question of"What''s your name?"
15401To the question,"Was Chicag at home?"
15401Was he not still kept in confinement?
15401Was my wish answered?
15401Was she holding herself bravely against the German hordes?
15401Was the cold always to be so crushing?
15401What cared they for my anxiety to push on for Red River?
15401What course lay open?
15401What did it matter if the whole world was at war?
15401What did they see inside?
15401What king ever wielded such power, what czar or kaiser had ever such obedience yielded to their decrees?
15401What was to be done?

15401Who could tell?
15401Who gave him the ground, and the water, and the trees?
15401Who has not heard of that captain who sailed away from Liverpool one day bound for America?
15401Why do I call this wild child the great anomaly of the human race?
15401Why does he take the land from us?
15401Why not have provided against this evil hour by bringing on from the last frozen lake some blocks of ice?
15401Would it bear?
15401You air a Kanady speculator, ai n''t ye?"
15401You tell us he is rich and strong, and has plenty of food to eat; for what then does he come to our land?
15401and did my path lie to the west, not east after all?
15401and had not my baggage undergone confiscation( it is a new name for an old thing)?
15401and who was he?
15401and you now want to get out to the West?
15401answered the American;"why, you ai n''t sick, air you?"
15401do they not themselves break the peace when it is made, and is not the war as often commenced by the Crees as by the Blackfeet?"
15401do you want us to starve on the land which is ours?
15401how many more miles have been taken from that long total of travel?
15401or was it merely that thing which men call chance, and dreamers destiny?
15401or was it the Dominion Government to whom the country was in turn retransferred by the Imperial authorities?
15401the reader will exclaim;"how came Muskeymote to possess boots?
15401they say,"if it was not for our buffalo where would you be?
15401to lie down as slaves to the white man, to die away one by one in misery and hunger?
15401was it the Great Spirit?
15401was it the Imperial Government who accepted that surrender?
15401were the dogs always to be the same wretched creatures?
15401what''s to hinder it from falling?"
15401when the Great Spirit could not speak, did He not still point out where His children should live?"
15401who sent him here?
15401who that has ever beheld that superb rush of water will forget it?

5895Afraid of me?
5895Ah, Kazan, what in the name of the saints is that?
5895Am I pretty, Mélisse?
5895And NOW what do you think of your Jean de Gravois?
5895And NOW what if Jan Thoreau still feels that the curse is upon him?
5895And did you ever see me run any faster?
5895And if there was business to do-- important business, m''sieur, would it not be best to go to Le Commissionaire?
5895And mine?
5895And not for a friend?
5895And not here?
5895And that-- is all?
5895And then-- what?
5895And they would do business there-- important business?
5895And were you sorry I ran away from you?
5895And will they take me?
5895And you are going back into the south?
5895And you-- I will find you again?
5895And-- and Jean de Gravois, the chief man?
5895Are you going so soon, Jan?
5895Are you growing old, too, Jan?
5895Boy, wo n''t you tell me who you are, and why you came that night?
5895But I say, Mélisse--"Are the dogs ready?
5895Can you blame him, Jean? 5895 Could it happen?"
5895Did I not say that Jan had waited too long?
5895Did she send you?
5895Do I?
5895Do n''t you understand? 5895 Do you know that you are beautiful?"
5895Do you mean that, Jan Thoreau? 5895 Do you play much?"
5895Do you suppose she would begin in French?
5895Do you think I was?
5895Do you think so, Brother Jan?
5895Ees she not ceevilize?
5895Even the things you played when I was a baby?
5895For me alone, Iowaka?
5895For who you fight at ze Great Bear?
5895For who you fight at ze Great Bear?
5895For who you fight?
5895Gravois, will you shake hands with me?
5895Great Heaven, what is the matter?
5895Has MacVeigh put in his new trap- line?
5895Has anything come between you and Jan?
5895Have you drunk any other than mine since years ago at Churchill and York Factory?
5895Have you forgotten, Jan Thoreau? 5895 He is not going-- to leave-- the post?"
5895How could I ever get tired with you watching me run, Mélisse?
5895How do you know, brother?
5895How is Mrs. Gravois, and the little Gravois-- and Mélisse?
5895How is it?
5895How long has the red flag been up?
5895I ca n''t imagine how a girl would look with golden hair; can you, Jan?
5895I can''t-- unless--"What, m''sieur?
5895I see it? 5895 If one might have the oath broken, and not do it himself, what then?"
5895Into the South, m''sieur?
5895Is it because you are afraid that Mélisse will like him?
5895Is it not beautiful, my Iowaka?
5895Is n''t it a glorious morning, Jan? 5895 Is n''t that the way we have played it ever since I can remember?
5895Is she not worth it?
5895Is this not the glorious world, with the sun just rising off there, and spring only a few days away? 5895 It means that one will be for ever damned unless he confesses to a priest soon after, does n''t it ma chérie?
5895It was a long time ago, was n''t it?
5895Jan Thoreau, what if I should break my oath-- and tell Mélisse?
5895Jean de Gravois wonders if Jan Thoreau understands?
5895Jean, would n''t you do as I am doing? 5895 Looks like a fight, does n''t it, Jan?
5895M''sieur, how far have you gone-- WITH HER?
5895NOW what do you think of him, my beautiful one?
5895Never, Jean?
5895Now do you understand?
5895Now what do you think of me, brother Jan?
5895Over the Nelson House trail?
5895Shall I give you my best wishes, Jan Thoreau? 5895 Shall I strike a light, m''sieur?"
5895She will soon be a woman, did you say, Jan Thoreau? 5895 Signify-- what?"
5895Since when, Mélisse?
5895Some day I will do a great deal more for you than that, Mélisse, and then--"What?
5895Tell me, why?
5895Tell me-- tell me--he heard Dixon pant eagerly,"did she send you to hunt for me, Thoreau?"
5895That I love him?
5895That is what my people believe, Jean; and if I have given my soul to you, why should I not break oath for you?
5895That was your sledge-- out there?
5895The officers of the great company are at Winnipeg, and Le Commissionaire, are they not, m''sieur?
5895Then you would have taken up with some foreigner if I had remained in the Athabasca country another year or two?
5895They are all beautiful over there?
5895To- day is your birthday, Jan-- yours and mine, mine and yours-- and we will always have it that way-- always-- won''t we, Jan?
5895Was it not right for me to break my oath to the Blessed Virgin and tell Mélisse why Jan Thoreau had gone mad? 5895 Was n''t that the night we heard the wolves howling behind us?"
5895What are you fighting about, Gravois? 5895 What are you going to do to- day, Jan?"
5895What camps, m''sieur?
5895What did you mean, Jan Thoreau, by running away from me like that?
5895What if Iowaka had been here then?
5895What if the birds tell him what happened out there on the trail?
5895What is it?
5895What is this?
5895What?
5895When Mélisse is a little older, should we not go with her into the South?
5895Where are you going-- from here?
5895Which will it be? 5895 Who are they?"
5895Why are you going away the day after to- morrow-- two weeks before the others? 5895 Why have you been crying?"
5895Why?
5895Will you care for the dogs, Henri?
5895Will you have breakfast with me?
5895Will you stay with the little Mélisse and me?
5895Will you take me with you?
5895Will you take me?
5895Will you wait a moment?
5895Wo n''t you play for me, Jan?
5895You come from Churchill?
5895You did not see it?
5895You have been there?
5895You have never been down before?
5895You hear the music in the skies-- now, my Mélisse?
5895You saw it?
5895You swear it?
5895You were glad that I pummeled the stranger, then?
5895You will come to supper, Jan?
5895You will never tell what you read in the papers?
5895You would n''t run as fast for me now, would you?
5895Ah, would he ever forget that look?
5895And NOW do you understand why I did not tell Mélisse of this letter, ma chérie?
5895And after that-- after he had done this thing, what would there remain in life for Jan Thoreau?
5895And besides, do you not suppose that Jan would like to see ME?"
5895And did I not follow the trail that staggered down the mountain, while Iowaka brought you back to life?
5895And did n''t she HATE the Englishman all of the time?
5895And did not Mélisse do as I told that fool of a Jan that she WOULD do?
5895And did you ever see hair that shines so, like the top- feathers of a raven who''s nibbling at himself in the hottest bit of sunshine he can find?
5895And if she is not a woman at thirty, with two children-- God send others like them!--when will she be, I ask you?"
5895And if there is no priest nearer than four hundred miles, it is a dangerous thing to do, is it not?
5895And what will you do when I get to be a woman, Jan-- which will be very soon, you say?"
5895And when I came to it, was it not the dead body of the missioner from Churchill?
5895And when I came to the lake, did I not see something black out upon it, like a charred log?
5895Before he could answer she added mischievously:"Did you see any fairies at Churchill or York Factory?"
5895Blessed saints, man, but is she not growing more beautiful every day?"
5895Can you not speak, my raven- haired angel?"
5895Did n''t you come from there, or there, or there?"
5895Did you ever see a figure like that, Jan Thoreau?
5895Did you know that he was going to Nelson House?"
5895Do brothers love their sisters less as they grow older?"
5895Do you mean to give the knife- challenge to one who has staked his life for you and who loves you as a brother?"
5895Do you not believe that about the sins of the fathers falling upon others?
5895Do you remember when you last cut my hair?"
5895Do you suppose we''ll ever go to Churchill together, Jan, and ride on a wonderful ship like that?"
5895Do you understand, boy?
5895Do you understand, m''sieur?
5895Do you wish me to take back what I gave to you then?"
5895Does any one know but you and me?"
5895Does it signify?"
5895Eh, Jan Thoreau?"
5895Eh?
5895Faintly she said:"I''ve kept your dinner for you, Jan. Why did n''t you come sooner?"
5895God in Heaven, can you not guess what happened, m''sieur?
5895Good God, do n''t you understand?"
5895Has he told you more?"
5895He straightened like a spring and turned, to Jan."Did you meet the strange team?"
5895How long did you travel before you made this camp?"
5895I say, what better could there be than that?"
5895I wonder what bad spirit has come into my Jean?"
5895If there is anything Jean de Gravois can do?"
5895If you don''t--""Why?"
5895Is it a crime up here to kiss a pretty girl?"
5895Is it larger than the city that is called Winnipeg?"
5895Is n''t that fair?"
5895Is n''t there room for two?"
5895It was silly, was n''t it?"
5895Jan Thoreau is no-- what you call heem?"
5895Jan, have you seen my new lynx- skin cap?"
5895M''sieur, am I right?
5895Mon Dieu, what can a man do to make himself great in the eyes of his wife?"
5895SOMETHING sent you-- SOMETHING-- don''t you understand?
5895Shall I open the door so that we can hear it better?"
5895Shall we hurry back, Mélisse, and see if he has brought our books and violin- strings?"
5895Should he warn Jean de Gravois that a company officer was investigating the disappearance of the missionary?
5895Sloughing in the trail, bleeding at every foot, would they still drag their burden beyond the reach of his vengeance?
5895The one with golden hair?"
5895The stranger sat down in the chair next to Jan."From the camps?"
5895Under his breath he whispered, as he made pretense of looking at Jan''s hand:"Le diable, do you want to tell HIM?"
5895Was it not right, I say?
5895Was it the blessed angels coming for his Mélisse?
5895Was n''t that strange?"
5895Was that an echo he heard?
5895What better than that, eh?
5895What do you say to going back with me, Jan?"
5895What do you say, Mélisse?"
5895What do you think of your Jean de Gravois and his country now?"
5895Whom have you out from Lac Bain?"
5895Why ca n''t you forget?"
5895Why could not he go to school for Mélisse, and store up treasures which in time he might turn over to her?
5895Why did n''t you sleep until breakfast was ready?"
5895Why is it, do you suppose?"
5895Will it be right?"
5895Will you come?"
5895Will you help me with this?"
5895Will you take the bag, or will you never again come back to Lac Bain?"
5895Would n''t you have done as much for Iowaka?"
5895Would the dogs beat him out?
5895Would you do that much again?"
5895You are sure that you would break oath for none but me?"
5895You have been here-- all night?"
5895You make the best coffee in the world, Mélisse?"
5895You remember?"
5895You saw-- Cummins-- the factor?"
5895cried Jan."Mon Dieu, m''sieur-- does she not love you?"
29686''Then what shall the Dacotahs do?'' 29686 Afraid?"
29686And what do you imagine?
29686And when we say we will not do a thing, you know that we will keep our promise?
29686Are you all right?
29686Are you not coming with us?
29686Asleep? 29686 But how do you know that you are obeying the totem?"
29686But suppose they come back in our absence?
29686But suppose we come upon a camp of half- breeds, as you suggested? 29686 But what of the others-- your father and mine?"
29686By that you mean that you want to come into the teepee?
29686Can the pale- face look upon it without fear? 29686 Can you hold out for a bit longer?
29686Can you not smell it?
29686Captives?
29686Did not Thunder- maker say that these evil spirits have tongues of magic? 29686 Did not the spirit of Thunder- maker speak true?
29686Did you find out anything while you were away with Haggis?
29686Did you hear that, Haggis?
29686Did you hear that--''hungry and tired''?
29686Do n''t you think it would be well if we were to shoot something?
29686Do the pale- faces come to insult the great chief of Dacotahs and say that the fiery totem lie? 29686 Do you think that Skipper Mackintosh is going to allow twa laddies like you to go wandering aboot the backwoods when he can guide you?
29686Do you think that we are going to allow our own people to suffer at the service of a lie? 29686 Does the Red Fox insult the sacred totem of the Dacotahs?"
29686Does the cut pain you much?
29686From our fathers?
29686Haggis hear,was the quiet reply of the native, to which the Scot retorted angrily--"You heard?
29686Haggis, you''ve got your tomahawk? 29686 Have you been asleep?"
29686Have you lost it?
29686How does the head feel now?
29686How far is it to this Pleasant Valley, as it is called?
29686How would it be if I were to stay here, in case he comes this way?
29686How would it be if we were to lay him in that little hollow and cover him with big stones?
29686I wonder if they have missed their way?
29686I wonder what he means by that?
29686I wonder what it can be? 29686 I wonder where they have come from and why they have congregated in this particular tent?"
29686If? 29686 Is it a success?"
29686Is it-- dangerous?
29686Is not Thunder- maker great medicine himself? 29686 Is this how the Dacotahs treat the stranger in their tents?"
29686It can not be so, lest you return to the waters from whence you came----"Oh, that''s it, is it?
29686It hardly seems probable that---- What''s that?--Over there in the centre?
29686It would gladden the eyes of the pale- faces to see their papooses by another sun?
29686Letter?
29686Lost-- tired-- hungry?
29686Lost? 29686 Matter?"
29686Mean?
29686Mighty Hand send Thunder- maker?
29686My white brothers have papooses, they say to Mighty Hand?
29686My white brothers in the tent of Thunder- maker? 29686 Of course they will be able to find their way back to Edmonton, when they see that there is no hope of our returning----""_ No_ hope?"
29686Oh, he would, would he?
29686Oh, that''s it, is it? 29686 Perhaps they are with other Indians?"
29686See? 29686 Shall it be that the fiery serpent hear laughing tongues while the hands of the Dacotahs are idle?
29686Shall it be, brothers, that the great medicine of the Dacotahs die before arrows of the evil spirits?
29686Sheep? 29686 That is what you wish us to understand, is n''t it, Thunder- maker?"
29686The Red Fox will blind the trail, that the white boys never follow? 29686 The papooses will never again see their fathers?"
29686Then the-- the fiery totem-- foolish?
29686Then what''s to be done?
29686Then why have you come to us to- night?
29686Thunder- maker could save-- white brothers-- from fire?
29686Well, where have you come from?
29686Were you sent to us by Mighty Hand?
29686What about wolves?
29686What do they think we are? 29686 What do you mean?"
29686What do you take me for-- a savage?
29686What do you think we ought to do?
29686What is it? 29686 What is it?"
29686What is this, brothers?
29686What is to be done now?
29686What next, I wonder?
29686What on earth are we to do?
29686What on earth can be the meaning of this?
29686What on earth is it?
29686What on earth is it?
29686What''ll happen? 29686 What''s the matter?"
29686What''s the matter?
29686What''s to be done? 29686 What''s to be done?"
29686What''s to be done?
29686Where are they? 29686 Where in the world have you two laddies been?"
29686Where?
29686Which of you two laddies is the one that''s danced down the hillside?
29686Which? 29686 Who are you, redmen?
29686Who''s this?
29686Why have you told us of this, Thunder- maker?
29686Why, what''s the matter, old man?
29686Yes-- the white man send paper by hand of Red Fox, but-- but Red Fox foolish; he-- lose letter-- on trail----"But you are_ sure_ you had one? 29686 You feel better now, do n''t you?"
29686You mean to come with us?
29686You said that you had come a long trail?
29686You think it possible that the canoe_ might_ pass the gully unharmed?
29686You want us to buy our lives for money? 29686 You wonder?"
29686You''ll wake me as soon as the two hours are up?
29686You''re no''feared to take a bit o''risk for your friend''s sake?
29686[ 2]But what has all this got to do with us?"
29686A pair o''laddies?"
29686And if not, why did you behave in such a double way?
29686And what for shall Skipper Mackintosh be afraid?
29686And when Skipper fails, is there no''the Haggis and Bannock-- a pair o''the finest scouts and trackers that ever set foot in bush or prairie?
29686And yet, one meenit after, I see you standing there like a daft gowk instead o''hustling for food as fast as your legs can move you?
29686Are you all right?
29686Are you dogs, to be beaten to obey the first loud voices?
29686Beetle?
29686But Holden did not respond to the greeting, as he demanded--"Does Thunder- maker think that we are fools?
29686But before another sun they-- they die----""Die?"
29686But did you not say that they were at the Dacotah village?"
29686But did you notice how that old warrior examined the knots himself?
29686But how can we speak in bonds?
29686But how long would their moment be delayed?
29686But how to draw the boy from the slough?
29686But if your people think us spirits, why do they keep us here?
29686But meantime-- the boys-- I wonder what they are doing now?"
29686But once there, what would be the result?
29686But what else could he do?
29686But----""Well-- but?"
29686By whom?
29686CHAPTER IV FRIENDS OR FOES?
29686Ca n''t we, Alf?"
29686Ca n''t you see that Bob is lying hurt?"
29686Can brave white boy forgive poor Indian?"
29686Can they not feel the poison- tooth break the covering of their flesh?"
29686Can you do this?"
29686Can you get a coat under your arms if I send it to you?"
29686Can you hear me?"
29686Coming towards us?"
29686Could it be that they had come too late?
29686Could it be that, after all, Mackintosh had been mistaken, or that Red Fox had deluded them?
29686Did he give you one?"
29686Did he not bring the thunder to prove his great medicine?
29686Did he not say that no weapon could prevail against those magic words?
29686Did you hear that?
29686Did you no''attend to what your freend said-- that Red Fox told him that Mighty Hand would leave for Pleasant Valley by another sun?
29686Do you see?
29686Do you think she''s worth skinning?"
29686Do you think that we could dare to live another hour if we knew that we had pretended to be sent by Him-- and so delude foolish people?
29686Do you think we are wise to keep quite in the centre of the current?
29686Do you think we did not hear you piping to those vile serpents of yours?"
29686Do you want to sleep all your senses away?"
29686Does either o''you ken anything o''this by chance?"
29686FRIENDS OR FOES?
29686Had the savage merely stolen him for some wild purpose-- perhaps to await a ransom?
29686Has he no weapon to protect himself from magic?"
29686Has he not made great medicine these many suns?
29686Has he not many times driven the fever from the camp, till it fled over the prairie like a coyote driven with sticks and dogs?
29686He say Red Fox face hideous?"
29686How shall the redman''s eyes see right?"
29686I suppose you''ve noticed the lights as well as we?"
29686I suppose, noo, that I''m no''just dreaming?
29686I''m beginning to think something has happened----""An accident?"
29686If there''s nothing to shoot, a fellow ca n''t get much of a bag, can he?"
29686Is this how the redman treats the stranger who would smoke the peace- pipe by our fire?
29686Is this the way the Dacotahs treat their white brothers when they seek the friendship of your shores?"
29686Is this the welcome that my braves give to those whom Mighty Hand has received with a smile-- with no arms in his hand, no tomahawk at his belt?
29686Laddie, laddie, are you forgetting that there''s a Hand that could guide the frailest birch- bark safely through Niagara itsel''?
29686Look here-- you know that when a pale- face says he will do a thing he will surely do it?"
29686Man, but I''d sooner have a sniff o''the backwoods----""Than a mouthful of bacon?
29686No fire shall have their white bodies----""And if we-- refuse-- to do-- this?"
29686Of course we came out from waters, but what has that to do with the moon, I wonder?"
29686Or are you children of your rightful chief?
29686Red Fox come over prairie-- bush-- far-- far----""Oh, you understand English?"
29686Shall the howling wolf put fear into your hearts, to drag down a prey that he dares not attack alone?
29686Spirits?"
29686Strange, was n''t it?"
29686Surely such a prodigy had never been seen before?
29686That''s what you are driving at, you cunning old serpent?"
29686The boys started at the remark, while Alf repeated--"A story?"
29686The clothes or yourself?"
29686The man dared not move, for the least motion of a muscle might be sufficient to frighten the deadly little rope of flesh, and then----?
29686The old man paused, and Arnold jerked in--"Then why on earth raise them?
29686The soond o''Haggis''s nightingale voice?"
29686The speaker was all bustle and hurry now, and as the boys followed to render assistance, Bob asked--"Pleasant Valley?
29686Then he added merrily:"But are you sure that you can stand it?
29686Then he remarked quaintly:"This is like old times, is n''t it-- you and I out in a scrape together?
29686Then you mean to go there direct?"
29686They bury the hatchet and-- my white brother will stay with Red Fox while he go Happy Hunting- ground?"
29686They were that answer, and the result-- who can say what the consequences would be when falsehood and superstition had a savage people at command?
29686Too soon?
29686We did not bid you truss us up with these rawhide thongs?"
29686We know that--''out of silver waters''--but is anything said about bonds?"
29686Well, how much do you wish?"
29686What about the antelope?"
29686What can that have to do with us?"
29686What could it be that had such a power to fascinate the whole tribe?
29686What do you see?"
29686What do you take me for, I''d just like to know?"
29686What do you take me for-- a coleopterist?
29686What does he mean by''out from the silver waters''?
29686What had happened to his chum?
29686What has kept them from returning to camp?"
29686What is the use of lying to us?
29686What was it?
29686What would you and I have done if two of our chums had disappeared from camp as we did?"
29686What''s that?"
29686Where did you find it?"
29686Where is he?"
29686Where?
29686White dog laugh at Red Fox?
29686Who is chief of the Dacotahs-- Thunder- maker or Mighty Hand?"
29686Who thinks o''bacon and coffee on a morning like this?
29686Who would have believed that these three short months would have changed a fever- wasted body into such a sturdy frame?"
29686Who''s this?"
29686Why is the white boy so good?"
29686Why not let us return?"
29686Why?
29686Will you braves suffer this insult to the wearer of the fiery totem?"
29686You do n''t think that Englishmen would leave a fellow to bleed to death, do you?"
29686You wo n''t go far from camp before we return, will you?"
29686You''ll not mind being left alone for a time?
29686You''re no''by chance just twa o''them muckle moths that''s come into my dream in a make- believe?"
29686Your faithers went doon the Athabasca, you said?"
29686_ Who_ are they that dare to revile our sacred sign with mocking eyes and tongues?"
29686but have you no''ears for the birds, nor nostrils for the scents of Nature?
29686decided Alf, to which Bob returned, with a sly dig at his chum''s ribs--"''Horns?''
29686laughed Bob, to which the naturalist replied with scorn, as he indicated the lads to take the opposite end of the tent to roll--"Beetle?
29686questioned Arnold slowly and seriously, and his companion added:"Yes, if we refuse-- what then?"
6282Ah, is it not always so?
6282Am I a fool? 6282 And Tripple?"
6282And room also?
6282And the vote let you be a town- councillor?
6282And then-- after that? 6282 And what did you say?"
6282And what is it you want to buy from me?
6282And what was she worth?
6282And you late ones?
6282Any telegrams for me?
6282Are you a musician by trade?
6282Blown up with what?
6282Can the Monseigneur cast a spell over them all?
6282Could you do without the Sarasate?
6282Did they say what hour?
6282Do you want to save his life?
6282Eh, well, what is he after?
6282Had you the same love of conscience and truth at Radley?
6282Has this man come here against your will?
6282Have I succeeded?
6282Have they been opened?
6282Have you got a minute to spare, kind sir?
6282Have you got it again out here-- your own?
6282He is dead?
6282Heads I win, tails it''s yours?
6282Here in Lebanon?
6282His nose-- how?
6282How are you feeling, old man?
6282How do I know what was in my mind? 6282 How do you know we are rich?"
6282How is he?
6282How much?
6282How?
6282How?
6282I got drunk-- oh, yes, of course, blind drunk, did n''t I? 6282 I know there was catastrophe, the tumblings of avalanches, but the voice that cried- the soul of a lover, was it?"
6282If he was your son?
6282In Lebanon?
6282In a horse- trade?
6282In what way?
6282Is it quiet in both towns?
6282Is it that those who beat you have to get up early?
6282Is there harm in that? 6282 Is there no work here for her?"
6282Is-- is he dead?
6282It does n''t look like war, does it?
6282It does n''t matter about the head bandages, but the eyes-- can''t I slough the wraps to- morrow? 6282 It is good enough for you-- almost, eh?"
6282It went?
6282It''s announced?
6282Long enough to hear you play it, Mr.--what is your name, may I ask?
6282May I speak with you?
6282My corner lot against double the shares?
6282No, I ca n''t pay you anything, that''s clear,he said;"but to get your own-- I''ve got some influence out here-- what can I do?
6282Oh, that''s one of your questions, is it?
6282Rockwell,Ingolby suddenly asked,"is there any chance of my discarding this and getting out to- morrow?"
6282She did not tell you she was made my wife those years ago? 6282 Suppose Ingolby is n''t there?"
6282Taught him his A- B- C- was his dear, kind teacher, eh?
6282That''s the thing that did it, but where''s the man behind the thing?
6282That''s what''s the matter with me, then?
6282That''s your view, is it, Barbazon?
6282The Monseigneur Lourde? 6282 The gun- shots-- what?"
6282The sword of the Spirit--"Oh, you want the sword, do you? 6282 Then you got a vote on it?"
6282There''ll be what?
6282To play the Sarasate alone to you?
6282Was ever a tent too full, when the lost traveller stumbled into camp in the old days?
6282Was it good or bad?
6282Was it your first town lot?
6282Well, we need n''t lose any time, but will you have a drink and a smoke first?
6282Well, what do you think of him?
6282Well?
6282What am I?
6282What brought you to the West?
6282What danger did you come to warn M. Marchand about?
6282What did the single cry-- the motif-- express?
6282What did you mean when you said that Ingolby''s eyes would not feed upon me?
6282What do you want?
6282What do you wish?
6282What else?
6282What for?
6282What good would it do if they got ten years-- or one year, if the bridge was blown up? 6282 What happened to the watch?"
6282What has happened?
6282What have I done?
6282What have you seen?
6282What is it? 6282 What is the rest I know so well?"
6282What time is it, Jim?
6282What was the danger?
6282What was the mare worth?
6282What''d buy Felix Marchand?
6282What''s he after? 6282 What''s he going to say?"
6282What''s his price?
6282What''s the lot worth now?
6282What''s your opinion, boss?
6282What''ve you got to say about it, son?
6282What''ve you got to say about it? 6282 When did you learn it?"
6282When do you go over to Manitou again to cut old Hector Marchand''s hair? 6282 When was it they said the strike would begin?"
6282Where did you think of going from here?
6282Where have you come from?
6282Where is he?
6282Where would they get it?
6282Who are they?
6282Who are you to tell me I must go?
6282Who commits my crimes for me?
6282Who said it? 6282 Who struck him down?"
6282Who will kill him?
6282Who''s for Lebanon?
6282Who''s for giving Lebanon hell, and ducking Ingolby in the river?
6282Who''s he?
6282Who''s the Master of the Lodge?
6282Why ca n''t he see himself through?
6282Why did n''t I know that?
6282Why do n''t you go, as I tell you, Jim?
6282Why? 6282 Will a wife betray her husband?"
6282Will my eyes have to be kept bandaged long? 6282 Will you toss for it?"
6282Yes, but what was the matter with her?
6282Yes, there was a big house in Montreal?
6282Yeth-''ir?
6282You are going to him?
6282You believe in God Almighty?
6282You did not know?
6282You have it here-- at your house here?
6282You have shown what power you have-- isn''t that enough?
6282You know the Romany lingo?
6282You mean you''re going to deny it in the papers?
6282You said you had come here to get your own-- is your home here?
6282You see I treated you fairly, and that you''ve been a fool?
6282You speak French much?
6282You understand about God?
6282You want me to know what it''s for?
6282You wanted to pay me respect, eh?
6282You will go back to Dennis?
6282You would n''t?
6282You''re sure it''s according to Hoyle?
6282You? 6282 ''But why have the Orange funeral while things are as they are?'' 6282 After that, what?
6282And the something else-- what?
6282Are you satisfied?"
6282Are you sure you got it right?"
6282Berry, however, said to the still absorbed musician:"Where did you learn to play?"
6282But had Jethro told all?
6282But if you go to Manitou to- night, how can you have that fiddler?"
6282But no-- what was there strange in the man being a Romany and playing the fiddle?
6282CHAPTER XV THE WOMAN FROM WIND RIVER"What is it?"
6282Ca n''t you see, my friends, what I''m driving at?
6282Did he refer to money, or-- was it Fleda Druse?
6282Did not the world know that he had saved her life?
6282Did you ever get close to him and try to figure what he was driving at?
6282Did you ever give that Ingolby a chance to tell you what his plans were?
6282Did you think I''d put it in a museum?
6282Do you not see?
6282Do you think such tomfoolery has any effect in this civilized country?
6282Do you think you could make a deal with Felix Marchand?
6282Does he preach as well as that?"
6282Eh?"
6282Had it anything to do with Gabriel Druse and his daughter?
6282Had she not her own trouble to face?
6282Had these disguises to do with Fleda-- with his Romany lass?
6282Have you got one?"
6282He had noticed the old man straighten himself with a spring and stand as though petrified when Ingolby said:"Why do n''t you turn on the light?"
6282He might speak once, he might speak twice, he might speak thrice, but would it ever be the same as the look that needed no words?
6282How much did you pay for her?"
6282How was it that men did not use their chances?
6282How was it that more throats were not cut in that way?
6282How would you like to try it?"
6282I belong-- bagosh, what do you want to ask?
6282I did n''t, did I?
6282In the pause Ingolby said to Jethro Fawe,"Play something, wo n''t you?
6282Ingolby said to him,"Jim, what the devil is this-- finger- bowls in my private car?
6282Is it Gipsy music?"
6282Is n''t he good for all day, this one?"
6282Is n''t it a beauty, Jethro Fawe?"
6282Is that what M''sieu''Marchand told you?
6282Is the pain in the head less?"
6282It flashed into her mind-- what would Max Ingolby think of such a thing?
6282May we use your back parlour?"
6282Or was he a tool of Felix Marchand?
6282Shall I have to give up work for any length of time?"
6282Shall I see the Master of the Orange Lodge or the Chief Constable for you?"
6282She did not tell you she was the daughter of the Romany King?
6282She was beautiful and-- well, who could tell?
6282So this was the way the swaggering, masterful Gorgio lived?
6282Soon?"
6282Suppose they took it into their heads to wreck the place?"
6282That being so, should my own man turn his head away from me day or night?
6282That''s what he said, is it?"
6282There was no child to keep you, and the man that tempted you said he adored you?"
6282There was silence for a moment in which they moved slowly forward, and then she said:"You were at Barbazon''s last night?"
6282There''s a bell on the table, is n''t there?"
6282There''s a snake in the bed of Manitou-- what are you going to do with it?"
6282They make us learn English, and--""If you do n''t like the flag and the country, why do n''t you leave it?"
6282This girl would never be his in the way that the others had been, but-- who could tell?--perhaps he would think enough of her to marry her?
6282To blow up the bridge-- for what?
6282Want the clothes, too?"
6282Was he to wear them?
6282Was it some temperamental thing in him?
6282Was it the embodied second self of Jethro Fawe, doing the evil that Jethro Fawe, the visible corporeal man, wished to do?
6282Was it through his fiddling that he was going to find a way to deal with this Gorgio, who had come between him and his own?
6282Was not humanity alone sufficient warrant for staying by his side?
6282Was that not what he wanted-- that you should leave him?"
6282Was the man a Romany, and, if so, what was he doing here?
6282We''d like to hear him play-- wouldn''t we, Berry?"
6282Well, is n''t it worth while making the bargain?
6282Were these disguises for the Master Gorgio?
6282What could she do to prevent his ruin?
6282What did the fellow mean?
6282What do you want at the end of it all?
6282What do you want to say to me?"
6282What does he say?"
6282What is it?"
6282What was it?
6282What were they for?
6282What woman could have designs upon a blind man?
6282Where is the Romany''s home?
6282Who can tell?
6282Who was there at one with him in all his deep designs, in all he had done and meant to do?
6282Who was there that loved him?
6282Who would have hinted at shame, if she had taken him to her father''s tan or gone to his tan and tended him as a man might tend a man?
6282Who''s going to stand it?
6282Who''s the cause?
6282Why Arabic-- why''kowadji''?"
6282Why should the world babble?
6282Why was it that now she could never think of the lost and abandoned Romany life without thinking also of Jethro Fawe?
6282Will you come?"
6282Will you see to it, Rockwell?"
6282Would he need it, robbed of sight and with his life- work murdered?
6282Yet had she not the right of common humanity?
6282Yet what had she to do with it, after all?
6282Yet would he wish it?
6282You gabble of conscience and truth, but is n''t it a new passion with you-- conscience and truth?"
6282You have money and brains; why not use them to become a leader of those who will win at last, no matter what the game may be?"
6282You have the gift of getting hold of the worst men here, and you have done it; but wo n''t you now master them again in the other way?
6282You think there''s something else that''ll be good for me?
6282You understand, Jim?"
6282You understand?
6282You want the sword, eh?"
6282You''ll keep me posted as to anything important?"
6282You''ll not forget the wig-- you''ll bring it round yourself?"
6282Your home and country''s a good way from here, eh?"
4702About-- Black Roger?
4702Am I not right, M''sieu Carrigan? 4702 An''you promise give me zat fight, w''en you are strong?"
4702And Carmin Fanchet?
4702And Marie- Anne?
4702And YOU, until the last-- did you not fight to have her put behind prison bars with her brother?
4702And YOU?
4702And he told you it is determined that I shall fight Bateese in the morning?
4702And one who tries to kill-- who almost succeeds-- what is the penalty for that?
4702And the other two?
4702And why-- why should she insist in a matter such as this, which properly should be settled among men?
4702And you are disappointed, St. Pierre? 4702 And you are willing to wager the point, M''sieu David?"
4702And you insist, M''sieu David?
4702And you will forgive me for-- for saying such beastly things to you?
4702And you will help me up?
4702And you''ll take me with you?
4702And you?
4702And-- Golden-- Hair?
4702Because I talked about this woman, Carmin Fanchet?
4702But after I have told you-- what then? 4702 But ze head, m''sieu?"
4702Did I-- hurt you?
4702Did he tell you about it?
4702Did n''t Bateese explain to you last night?
4702Did n''t Bateese tell you that?
4702Did you not expect me to return and apologize for leaving you so suddenly this afternoon? 4702 Do I mak''ze word plain so m''sieu compren''?"
4702Do n''t you realize what has happened? 4702 Do you care?
4702Do you mind telling me who you are, and where we are going?
4702Do you see that, Concombre Bateese?
4702Does ze little partridge rooster keep his claws warm in those in ze winter? 4702 For God''s sake, Audemard-- tell me--""I, m''sieu?
4702For your husband?
4702Has she not the sweetest voice in the world, m''sieu? 4702 Have you seen Bateese this morning?"
4702Her camp?
4702Home--?
4702How are you, David?
4702I ask you,said he,"if you would really stake your life in a matter such as that?
4702I do n''t mind telling you it is going to be difficult for me to do that-- because-- well, this is a most unusual situation, is n''t it? 4702 I say, is there another woman like her in the world, m''sieu?"
4702I was thinking, Bateese-- what will happen to me if you get me in those arms when we fight? 4702 I wonder,"she said in a low voice,"what Roger Audemard''s own story might be if he were here to tell it?"
4702I? 4702 Is he an old man?"
4702Is it true that St. Pierre can not whip you, Bateese?
4702Is it true that you have given your word to fight Bateese?
4702Is that why you have given your men orders to kill me if I try to escape?
4702It does n''t hurt so much now, does it?
4702It would n''t be fair to tell you, would it?
4702Joe, what do you say-- shall you and I return and put up a REAL fight for them?
4702May I?
4702PAR LES MILLE CORNES DU DIABLE, you t''ink Bateese lie, m''sieu? 4702 Shall we be waiting long?"
4702She is your wife, Audemard, is it possible you do n''t love her?
4702She says that I am to make no effort to leave this bateau-- that I am to be killed if I try to escape? 4702 Somet''ing ver''funny once more, is eet-- w''at?"
4702St. Pierre prefers these-- on occasions,she said,"Do you?"
4702St. Pierre say no man make beeg noise at-- what you call heem-- funeral? 4702 St. Pierre, do you lie?
4702Tell me, did she not fight?
4702Then I am a prisoner? 4702 Then-- you judged her without absolute knowledge of fact?
4702This-- this Roger Audemard-- if you catch him-- what will you do with him?
4702W''at you say, m''sieu?
4702We have moved from the tar- sands?
4702Well, what did you think of it, comrade?
4702What have you done to Marie- Anne-- your wife?
4702What!--You dare talk lak that to Concombre Bateese, w''at is great''st fightin''man on all T''ree River? 4702 When will this man St. Pierre come to see me?"
4702Who is the other?
4702Why are they not camping over here with us?
4702Why do you say''almost''?
4702Why is it impossible?
4702Why is it that you sit in darkness?
4702Why no light over there in the corner, and why sing that death- song to chase away the devil when there is no devil near?
4702Why not En Roulant ma Boule, my sweet Jeanne? 4702 Why not come out squarely, honestly, like men?
4702Why play like little children, M''sieu Carrigan?
4702Why''madame,''when I have given you permission to call me''Marie- Anne''?
4702Will you bring me my pack and clothes in the morning? 4702 Will you eat-- now?"
4702With these?
4702Yes?
4702You are not hurt-- badly?
4702You are surprised? 4702 You believe you are going to hang me?"
4702You had an idea, M''sieu David?
4702You have not gone to bed, m''sieu?
4702You lak ze fight, m''sieu?
4702You love all that, m''sieu?
4702You made them?
4702You mak''guess, eh?
4702You mean that I must make my own guess?
4702You mean?
4702You see somet''ing ver''fonny, m''sieu?
4702You understand, David? 4702 You would do that?"
4702You would stake your life?
4702An''you will w''ip heem, eh, m''sieu?
4702And I am wondering-- after they do happen-- if you will care so very much?"
4702And I''m going to ask you, M''sieu David, will you play square with me?
4702And St. Pierre?
4702And always, day and night, he is asking that same question,''Has any one seen Black Roger Audemard?''
4702And as for a wager--""Yes-- what have you to wager?"
4702And for the first time he asked himself another question, Where was the man, St. Pierre?
4702And had Marie- Anne done that?
4702And he heard again the mad monotone of Andre''s voice, crying plaintively,"HAS ANY ONE SEEN BLACK ROGER AUDEMARD?"
4702And if that was conceivable, what had they done with Marie- Anne?
4702And in his head a voice seemed to cry out to him,"What did Carmin Fanchet ever do to you?"
4702And my men?
4702And on top of that disgrace-- you insist that I pay the wager?"
4702And she did n''t wait to bandage ME up, did she?"
4702And the next?"
4702And then,"Will you light the lamps, M''sieu David?"
4702And tonight-- now-- was she with St. Pierre, waiting as they had waited last night for the rising of the moon?
4702And what did you know about Black Roger Audemard?"
4702And where was Marie- Anne?
4702And you-- in my place-- what would YOU do, m''sieu?"
4702Are you a little glad, Marie- Anne?"
4702Are you coming with me to the proue, m''sieu?"
4702Are you sure she said that?"
4702Are you through questioning me, M''sieu David?
4702But I blame no one, except--""Carmin Fanchet?"
4702But did she know more than that?
4702But what was his own struggle compared with this tragedy which St. Pierre was now facing?
4702But why ask you questions if you wo n''t answer them?"
4702But why that senseless play of falsehood?
4702But why the deuce had n''t she brought up his pack?
4702But why, when she saw his eyes open a little later, had she cried out her gratitude to God?
4702But-- tell me!--Could you see?
4702COULD she forget?
4702Can you guess why?
4702Can you suggest a better way-- between men like you and me?"
4702Did I promise I would not kill you and sink your body to the bottom of the river?
4702Did I say I would let you go?
4702Did she feel that shame as he was feeling it?
4702Did she think he was a scoundrel?
4702Did you ever hear a sweeter or as sweet?
4702Did you ever hear a sweeter voice?"
4702Did you hear?
4702Did you sleep well, M''sieu Carrigan?"
4702Do n''t you know that according to every law of God and man I should arrest you and give you over to the Law?
4702Do n''t you?"
4702Do you agree?"
4702Do you comprehend me, m''sieu?
4702Do you hold anything against her?"
4702Do you recall that I gave you any other guarantee, M''sieu Carrigan?
4702Do you understand, m''sieu?
4702Do you?"
4702Ees it zat?"
4702Eh, coq de bruyere?
4702Eh, shall we mak''ze bargain?"
4702HAS ANY ONE SEEN BLACK ROGER AUDEMARD?"
4702Had Black Roger turned a clever coup by leaving his wife there, while he came on ahead of the bateau with Carmin Fanchet?
4702Had St. Pierre been making a fool of him?
4702Had she been his friend, using all her influence to protect him, because her heart was sick of the environment of which she was a part?
4702Had she forgotten?
4702Have n''t you anything to say?"
4702Have you heard of wan garcon named Joe Clamart, m''sieu?
4702He was silent for a moment, then said,"I raved about a number of things when I was sick, did n''t I?"
4702Hesitate?
4702How do I know?
4702How had Bateese turned the trick?
4702How much did she know?
4702If St. Pierre was Black Roger, why would he confess to that fact simply to pay a wager?
4702If he had in him the desire to kill St. Pierre now, might not St. Pierre have had an equally just desire to kill him?
4702If she believed it, why did she not treat him a bit more considerately?
4702Is it a go?"
4702Is it not possible for a big heart like mine to do that, m''sieu?"
4702Is it not so, m''sieu?
4702Is it not so, m''sieu?"
4702Is it not so?
4702Is it not so?
4702Is it not so?"
4702Is it not so?"
4702Is it possible that you do n''t comprehend my own duty?
4702Is it?"
4702Is n''t that fair?"
4702Is she sleepin''over there-- in the camp?"
4702Is that it, Bateese?"
4702Is that it?
4702Is that not fair?
4702Is this another bit of trickery?"
4702It is not good for you: Bateese, will you tell m''sieu not to talk?"
4702It was-- a joke?"
4702Non?
4702Or ees it zat you grow frighten because ver''soon you stan''up an''fight Concombre Bateese?
4702Or had they struck aside from the trail?
4702Or was it the big bateau rocking under his feet?
4702Or would you rather be alone?"
4702Oui?
4702Pierre?"
4702Pierre?"
4702So what else can I do?
4702Some day when St. Pierre comes, will you teach me how to use them?"
4702Surely you would not break in upon their love- making?"
4702Tell me if I am right?
4702The fury died out of his face, but his great hands remained clenched as he said, for David alone,"That was a playful blow, m''sieu?
4702Then why is it you would be my friend and Roger Audemard''s enemy?
4702Then, as he bent over the sweep with his great back to David, he chuckled audibly, and said:"Would you go, m''sieu?
4702WAS THIS MAN ST. PIERRE?
4702WHY, m''sieu?"
4702WHY?"
4702Was he alone in danger?
4702Was it Bateese, inspired by some sort of malformed humor?
4702Was it fair or honest to destroy her simply because you thought she might be a partner in her brother''s crimes?"
4702Was it possible that St. Pierre Boulain was playing a huge joke on him?
4702Was my head bad?"
4702Was n''t it splendid?"
4702Was not that enough?
4702Wat happen w''en you look t''rough ze glass up there, eh?
4702Were they smiling and offering him their hands, even as they knew he was about to die?
4702What I must do?"
4702What are you going to do next?"
4702What could be their object in wanting him to believe she was still aboard the bateau?
4702What could she have done more terrible than I have done?"
4702What do the Police say about Roger Audemard?"
4702What had worked the sudden transformation in her?
4702What is the matter?"
4702What mad impulse could it be that dragged them still farther into the path of death?
4702What reason could he have for letting him live at all?
4702What terrible thing did she do to you, M''sieu?"
4702What terrible thing did she do to you?
4702What the deuce did it mean?
4702What the deuce did prettiness matter in the present situation?
4702What would he have done in St. Pierre''s place?
4702What would this man, her husband, think and do if he knew that his wife had given up her bedroom to this stranger?
4702What would you do?"
4702Where had Black Roger and the Broken Man gone?
4702Where is St. Pierre, and when shall we see him?"
4702Who was it St. Pierre had called sweetheart?
4702Who was this stranger who was pot- shotting at him with such deadly animosity from the ambush below?
4702Why did your wife try to kill me behind the rock?
4702Why do you hesitate?"
4702Why had Marie- Anne nursed him back to life?
4702Why had not Bateese killed him?
4702Why had she labored to save the life she had so atrociously coveted a minute before?
4702Why you no hit Concombre Bateese, m''sieu?
4702Why, m''sieu?"
4702Why?
4702Why?
4702Will you also promise not to ask me questions, which I can not answer-- until St. Pierre comes?"
4702Will you forgive me-- and accept my gratitude?"
4702Wo n''t you tell me why you shot me, and why that change came over you when you saw me lying there?"
4702Would any other woman in the world have given her hand like that to the man who had helped to kill her brother?"
4702Would she confess to him the secret of that precious moment when she had lain close against his breast, her arms about him, her face pressed to his?
4702Would she reveal EVERYTHING to St. Pierre-- her husband?
4702Would she tell St. Pierre of the many hours they had spent together?
4702Would you care for that?
4702Would you rather put out the lights and go to bed?"
4702You COMPREN''?
4702You hear w''at I say?"
4702You judged her-- as you hinted in your fever-- because she fought so desperately to save a brother who had gone wrong?"
4702You lissen?
4702You listen hard w''at I say?"
4702You love ma belle Jeanne-- Marie- Anne?
4702You threaten me with death?"
4702You understan'', m''sieu agent de police?"
4702You unnerstan''?"
27504A woman, are ye sure?
27504Ah,said Carrington, and his voice was very sharp,"you did not consider it necessary to ask my sanction?"
27504Am I never to speak to thee, lad?
27504Am I, then, so little as to fear a few inquisitive women? 27504 And is there nothing to be added?
27504And,said Grace, with a heightened color, and her liquid eyes shining,"is there still nothing else?"
27504Any one for Elktail? 27504 Are those men badly hurt?"
27504Are you a friend of the witness Lorimer?
27504Are you getting up another speech, or trying to freeze there?
27504Are you going, Ralph?
27504Are you so old and wise already, Ralph?
27504Are you speaking for yourself, or for the rest?
27504Art pledged to marry Miss Carrington of all women, lad? 27504 But is there no hope in the present?--nothing that I can do?"
27504But why did you let him? 27504 Ca n''t I give you a shakedown in the stable until morning?"
27504Coombs? 27504 Did it ever strike you, Ralph, that the people who subscribe for statues make a bad choice of their models?
27504Did you get the grading contract?
27504Did you notice that he moved as though he had no power in his left side?
27504Do you believe this infamous libel?
27504Do you know that shortly after leaving your house he was murderously assaulted as a result of his visit?
27504Do you know the sheep- faced feeling, Ralph?
27504Do you realize, Mr. Lorimer, that you are in many ways a lucky man?
27504Do you think there is any ore worth milling in the Day Spring, Calvert?
27504Had n''t we better run our line through and mark it off now that we''re here?
27504Hast gone mad altogether, lad?
27504Have you any animus against the prisoner Fletcher?
27504Have you anything to say before I turn you out on the prairie?
27504Have you lost your reason as well as all sense of duty, Grace?
27504Have you seen a ghost?
27504Have you turned religious suddenly, Ralph?
27504He was to your knowledge threatened?
27504How do those French- Canadians learn to play like that?
27504How long do you spend over one? 27504 I promised to look in on Morgan in the saloon; will you join us?"
27504I''m afraid it''s more than likely, too, that you will object to our putting up the buildings we have in mind anywhere about Carrington?
27504Is it true that all has been settled satisfactorily?
27504Is it true?
27504Is this going to be the end of me?
27504It is comfortable enough, but, Ralph, did you ever brush it? 27504 May I show you this wonderful township?"
27504Mr. Lorimer,he said,"will you be kind enough to explain why you are cutting my timber without permission?"
27504Must I speak twice?
27504Now are you willing to do it in that way? 27504 Now what''s the matter with running more cattle?
27504Now, I want only the truth-- you understand these rivers-- could any white man take a canoe down there and through the pool safely?
27504Now, advise me about those cattle; and is there anything I can do for you?
27504Only two doors to the place, have n''t you? 27504 Or have you forgotten you told me yesterday that you did not care to go?"
27504Or his wife?
27504Seen Colonel Carrington?
27504Shall we thank Providence for a good conceit of ourselves?
27504So you decided to dispense with it?
27504The only question is-- how far from the station are we?
27504The question is, however, what can you do?
27504The result?
27504They have all voted?
27504We have heard great things,said Johnston;"what did the surveyor say?
27504Well, Ralph, what is it now?
27504Well, then, why do n''t you come?
27504Were you a friend of Thomas Fletcher''s?
27504What are the duties?
27504What did he say?
27504What did that fellow say?
27504What do you think of that, Lee?
27504What do you think of your cousin, lass?
27504What has that to do with thee?
27504What is it?
27504What is this beggarly farmer, the nephew of my bitterest enemy, that you should give up so much for him? 27504 What was that?"
27504What will you do with it?
27504Where did he learn the trick of it?
27504Where do you think they have gone?
27504Where is the site?
27504Where is your boasted consistency? 27504 Who is this man here, lass?"
27504Whom are you wanting?
27504Why did she not speak to either of us?
27504Why do n''t you go?
27504Will she have you?
27504Will they get through?
27504Will you all turn against me, you dividend- hunting traitors?
27504Will you come out, and give up Hemlock Jim?
27504Will you tell me about Canada, Miss Carrington?
27504Wo n''t you come in, boys, instead of fooling''round outside there in the cold?
27504Wo n''t you come in?
27504You are all supplied?
27504You are hardly a Lancelot, Sir Railroad Builder; and she-- is it a compliment to compare me with Arthur''s faithless Queen?
27504You have more good friends than you think, Ralph; and it was of service to you, was it not?
27504You have used those cracked plates since you came here? 27504 You mean to take a vote?"
27504You''ll take me over now wo n''t you, Lorimer?
27504''Something nice for a lady?''
27504''What''s his figure?''
27504''Who the perdition are you?''
27504Ah, excuse an unfortunate question-- a difference of opinion most probably?"
27504Ah, if you are not tired, Miss Carrington, will you take pity on an old friend of yours?
27504Alice, would n''t that lady take charge of thee while I stay back?"
27504Am I a low- grade perjurer-- and my friend what he was working round to show?
27504And did n''t I tell you to use the axe?"
27504And did n''t the new partner grumble?"
27504And did you ever ask whether I had plans for thee?"
27504And do you fancy that I loved you for your prepossessing exterior?
27504And does she care for thee?"
27504And it has n''t dawned upon you that you came out in the transition stage-- a grub, or shall we say a chrysalis?
27504And what right has any unknown person to send money to me?
27504And while I glanced at her in a bewildered fashion she continued,"Do you, like my father, take my consent for granted?
27504And would you choose these instead of your natural position as mistress of Carrington?"
27504Anything would swing round in the eddy, would it not?"
27504Are not these dark pines grander than any monument?
27504Are we to hold on to our first ambition, or turn contractors?"
27504Are you ill?"
27504Being a trained engineer, I''m working manager, and, as a matter of business, what do I owe you?"
27504But do n''t you think we are in the meantime drifting into idle sentiment?
27504But now, sweetheart, how much longer must we wait and wait?
27504But what about your daughter?"
27504But what brought you and the others into this desolation?"
27504But what could be expected?
27504But where have you been, and how did we pass you?"
27504Ca n''t you take it in the spirit it''s evidently meant, and be thankful?
27504Can ye no hear the river roaring to the boulders, and would ye have her wash ye out mangled out o''human image into the bottomless pool?
27504Could you tell me how far it is to Lone Hollow?
27504Coyote, even timber wolves, antelope and other deer haunt it, do n''t they?
27504Did n''t you hire my horses, once?"
27504Did you meet Miss Carrington on the moor again?"
27504Do n''t I wish I was coming?
27504Do n''t back down on one''s partners; kind of mean, is n''t it?
27504Do n''t heart- break and black, black solitude count anything with you?
27504Do n''t they pay high wages for my work in Montreal and Winnipeg?
27504Do n''t you know you''re trespassing?''
27504Do n''t you see the surveyor is beckoning you?"
27504Do n''t you think such conduct unbecoming in an elder brother, or any respectable landowner, Lily?"
27504Do n''t you think we could take the risk?"
27504Do you feel any easier now?
27504Do you know that in half an hour I could bring the police on you?"
27504Do you know we''ve been living on potatoes, tea, and porridge every meal for the last ten days?
27504Do you know you have cost me two dollars already by your breakages?
27504Do you remember what you once said to me at Lone Hollow?"
27504Ever heard me moralizing, Ralph?
27504Four men with a load between them-- where are the lave o''ye?
27504Geoffrey, are you mad?"
27504Good markets and mills, say the city men, but where do the markets come in if you ca n''t get at them?
27504Grace, to both of us, this is the strangest of wedding presents; but what shall we do with these shares in the Day Spring mine?
27504Hast told thy cousin Alice about it?"
27504Have I not seen my brother reveling in them?
27504Have n''t you realized yet that this undertaking is too big for you?"
27504Have they no use for the money you would spend in liquor here-- the women who never cried out when they let you go?
27504Have ye seen a two- horse sleigh?
27504Have you been fascinating any more young damsels, Ralph?
27504Have you counted the cost-- hardship, degrading drudgery, and your father''s displeasure?
27504Have you lost your usual eloquence?"
27504He saw we were plotting something, and laughed as he said:"Making up your bill?
27504He was a townsman who had never crossed the Rockies-- and if there are glories like this on earth, what must the everlasting city be?"
27504He''s a big chestnut, branded small O inside the Carrington C. You''ll be careful with him, wo n''t you?"
27504He''s no friend o''yours; have ye met that sleigh, and where are ye riding at this unholy hour?"
27504He, too, possessed a copy of the wretched paper, and, flinging it down before me, said,"Hast seen this, lad?
27504Here, before these witnesses, tell me again, is it Gospel true?"
27504How did you leave mother, and the shop?
27504How much do you call a fair thing for the holding as it stands, bearing in mind our risk in buying what is only the good- will with the owner absent?"
27504How much maize and oats for the horses?
27504Hudson, where did you fling that confounded bucket?
27504I am going back to the farm at Fairmead, and, if she is longing for open air, do you think she would come and keep house for me?"
27504I dreaded the next question, which came promptly:"And what does the iron- fisted Colonel say as to thee for a son- in- law?"
27504I even laughed as Harry, meeting me in the doorway, said,"Good heavens, Ralph, what have you been doing?
27504I had seen very little of him since Harry returned, and taxed him with it, saying:"Have we frightened you away from Fairmead lately?"
27504I manage the affairs of the Manor, and may I ask what your grocery list came to?
27504I presume I have the pleasure of addressing him?
27504I presume you know the fees they charge at both those schools?
27504I remember that when we discussed the affair later Johnston said,"What did I do it for?
27504I showed Aline the letter, and she said,"Why do n''t you go?
27504I spent some time with the latter, who smiled dryly as he said,"Not quite cleaned out yet?
27504I suppose it is-- hopeless-- absolutely?"
27504I suppose you are sure the firm he represented is good?"
27504I suppose you have not heard what caused the quarrel?"
27504I wonder whether the thought was born when that sunset flamed and flashed?"
27504I''ve been trying to remedy that disaster-- did you ever wonder where my dividends went to?
27504I''ve only met one who is always sensible;"and then an idea struck me, and I added quickly:"Are you quite sure Fletcher was n''t in the sleigh?"
27504If the crop fails?
27504If you take your share of the five hundred, what is going to educate your brother Reggie and your sister Aline?
27504Is he here with the fire of bad whisky in him, betting against the banker to win a smile from Jess of Caribou?"
27504Is it not true that you took her from the service of a railroad hotel and found a house for her on the prairie?"
27504Is it strange that he has learned a little courtesy?
27504Is n''t that your view, Harry?"
27504Is there any means whatever by which I can annul the bargain?''
27504Is there anything the matter with stopping here?
27504Is this the lot you would propose for her?
27504It is n''t poor Minnie''s fault that her husband is what you call a bad egg, is it?
27504It would be splendid, would n''t it, if you were to find a gold mine?"
27504It''s a bonanza harvest, and I''ll keep my promise; fifteen dollars a month, is n''t it?
27504It''s nice to think oneself inflexible, is n''t it?
27504Just where and how are they waiting?
27504Kind of religio- political crank, is n''t he?
27504Lorimer, I wonder, if we knew all, whether we should pity him?"
27504Lorimer?"
27504Lorimer?"
27504May I ask who it is to whom we are so much indebted?
27504More working beasts?
27504Mr. Lorimer, of Fairmead, are you not?
27504No other possible landing place or foothold, is there?
27504No?
27504Not seen the whole of your noble self in a glass for two years?
27504Now tell me if you have any definite plans-- you know how I always used to advise you?"
27504Now you have come out of the chrysalis-- see?"
27504Now, I''ve been talking straight-- what have you to say?"
27504Now, sir, for the space of two minutes will you restrain your impatience and follow us?"
27504Of course, it sounds ridiculous, but, as Harry says, we do not know everything, and you believe me, do n''t you?"
27504Of course, you''ll stay with us a week or two?"
27504Oh, who will with me ride?"
27504Ralph Lorimer of Orb Mill, where is Minnie Lee?"
27504Ralph Lorimer, are you sure that it is not poison you are giving me?"
27504Ralph, is it foolish-- I once supposed it would be so-- that because you have the strength to do these things you make me proud of you?"
27504Ralph, why do n''t you try a deal in cattle?"
27504Ralph, wo n''t you help me?"
27504Ralph, you know how old friends we are, and I have been wondering-- you really must be sensible-- whether I could help her through you?"
27504Remembering what I told you, have you settled yet what you are going to do?"
27504Say, do n''t you think you had better ride round and lock up that blamed old Coombs?"
27504Say, had n''t we better lead our horses?"
27504Say, what are you going to do with him, sonny?"
27504Seen no one on the prairie?
27504Shall I ask the cashier to make out a statement?
27504Shall I ask your wife before you whether it''s true?
27504Shall I tell you?
27504Shall the rich rob us of our children, as they rob us of our bread?"
27504Shall we be permitted to walk hand in hand through the first thick darkness, darling?"
27504She is teaching now-- do you know what women are paid for teaching in some private schools?
27504Sixty yards and a two- foot target, what need for such precautions?
27504Solid and slow from shoulders to ankles; head-- shall we say that of a gladiator, or a prize- fighter?
27504Sorry to intrude business, but after all I''m a drummer, and one must earn one''s bread and butter-- see?"
27504Still, in reference to the latter, is there not a warning about blindly casting?"
27504Still, tell me, did you dream or imagine anything more?"
27504Suppose you left your sister alone, and came back to find a half- drunk hobo trying to murder her?"
27504Sweetheart, could you expect the full duty to her husband from the woman who had signally failed in her duty to others?"
27504Tell me how you came here, and why you left England, wo n''t you?"
27504That''s about all, but, if it''s a fair question, did you find any sign of gold?"
27504The Day Spring was not prospering in such a degree that we could afford to ignore the rumors-- eh, Geoffrey?"
27504Then I ended slowly,"I wonder whether, even in that case, there would be any chance for me?"
27504There were other counts against me; and what could a poor man do?"
27504They ca n''t sell before to- morrow; and you wo n''t be hard on a plundered man, agent?
27504Thomas Gorst and other names, Will Stephens, and Thomas Fletcher, would you like to glance at this warrant?
27504Want to revise the item?
27504Was he a little dark man, or perhaps it was another, rather stout and red- faced?
27504We should always be forgiving, Ralph, should n''t we?"
27504Well, I suppose there will be trouble over it; but who is this Marvin?"
27504What about the dairy?
27504What answer could I give him after my promise to you?
27504What are you going to do with us?"
27504What brought thee after me?
27504What did you play this confounded trick upon us for, John?"
27504What do you say, Johnston?"
27504What is the name of this lunatic?''
27504What made me do it?
27504What would this prairie look like if a cloud obscured the moon?"
27504What''s that?
27504When I neared it my suspicions were confirmed, for a rough voice hailed me from under the trees:"What are you wanting, stranger?
27504Where''s my daughter, Minnie Lee, that left her home to follow thee?"
27504Where''s the man from an English college that used to feel himself better after they talked to him?
27504Where''s the man with the axe to chop one of these pillars for a battering- ram?
27504Who can it be?"
27504Who in the wide world can have sent the money?"
27504Who the deuce are you-- another of them?''
27504Who!--Miss Carrington-- is there any one else to look at when she is in the room?"
27504Who?--oh, General Jackson, how should I remember?
27504Why are n''t you getting off?"
27504Why ca n''t your people understand that if a man''s a dead failure over there we do n''t want him?
27504Why must you stop me then?"
27504Why should that invertebrate wastrel have turned up to plague us so?"
27504Why?
27504Will I take payment for a bit of dried venison, when the Almighty freely gives me all the good fish in the river an''the deer in the woods?
27504Will you follow me?"
27504Will you give me Aline?"
27504Wo n''t get off?
27504Wo n''t you all walk along and write your names down here?"
27504Would you like to come with me?"
27504Would you make this clean, green land like Lancashire or parts of Pennsylvania?"
27504Would you mind telling me what you expect to do?"
27504You agree?
27504You had a long journey-- how much did you get?"
27504You quite understand what I am saying, Colonel Carrington?"
27504You remember how he looked when he said that this was his last march?"
27504You understand-- you once told me you felt it all, and you went out in search of fortune; but what can a woman do?
27504You will do this, as a favor, wo n''t you?"
27504You will help me to do what I ought, dearest?"
27504You wo n''t bear malice?"
27504You would demand his best from your partner, would n''t you?"
27504You''ll wish me Godspeed, wo n''t you?"
27504Your baggage?
27504are we expected to drink all of this?
27504is there nothing I can do?
27504look at that one striding toward us with the air of a general; stamp of blood about him; where did he get it?
27504why did n''t you come before?"
6357''And what is that?'' 6357 ''Baking again, Anderson?''
6357''Did n''t I tell you, you young blackguard, that the grouse- pie was to be kept for Sunday? 6357 ''Do Knisteneux hunt at night, prowling in the bed of a stream?''
6357''Does the young wrestler want_ another_ wife?'' 6357 ''Has the light- hair got a medicine- bag, or does she speak with spirits, that she has found me so easily?''
6357''Well, sir''said he,''do you wish to speak to me?'' 6357 Ah, some beads and silks, eh?
6357All right,cried Harry, suppressing his feelings with a strong effort;"what next?"
6357An''p''r''aps you''ve heerd tell of his first trip of discovery along the shores of the Polar Sea?
6357An''please, master,put in Jacques,"when do you mean to let us off from this place?
6357An''where has''e been took to?
6357And Misconna?
6357And did you never see him again?
6357And did you not undeceive the greenhorn?
6357And do you intend to do so?
6357And does Jacques know he is here?
6357And does she agree?
6357And how much will that be?
6357And no one else?
6357And pray what is_ that_?
6357And pray, good Redfeather, what did your thoughts tell you?
6357And pray, how far do you think we may now be from that place?
6357And the black mare, can he not have that?
6357And the new horse?
6357And what of Charley?
6357And what was the result?
6357And why not with a red Indian, friend?
6357And your name?
6357And, pray, what dog-- what miserable thieving cur are you, who dare to address me thus?
6357Anon?
6357Any bark knocked off?
6357Anything else?
6357Anything more, Antoine?
6357But are you still thought a poor warrior?
6357But are you sure it wo n''t do you harm to talk? 6357 But do you think it_ really_ is one?"
6357But tell me, Charley, why do you care about Mrs. Grant seeing you?
6357But what has all this to do with Peterkin?
6357By all means-- Ho, Redfeather; are you trying to stop the wind by looking it out of countenance?
6357By- the- by, you''re going over to the missionary''s place to- morrow, are you not?
6357Can it be possible?
6357Could anything on earth break up or sink or melt that?
6357Could he not try the new horse?
6357Could n''t he have the brown pony?
6357Dear me, Harry, what''s wrong? 6357 Dear me, what has happened?"
6357Did Francois get better?
6357Did I ring for you, eh?
6357Did n''t I say so?
6357Did you ever explain to him the prospects that he would have in the situation you propose for him?
6357Did you ever point out the probable end of a life spent in the woods?
6357Did you ever trap a fox, Harry?
6357Did''e not say w''en''e''d be home?
6357Did_ he_ sing of niggers?
6357Do ducks travel in canoes hereabouts?
6357Do with it? 6357 Do you ever think of building a hut in such a spot as this, Jacques, and settling down altogether?"
6357Do you know any of the Indians who are so anxious to vent their spleen on our worthy bourgeois?
6357Do you mean to say that people''s heels really freeze and fall off?
6357Do you refer to the time when he was nearly starved to death, and when poor Hood was shot by the Indian?
6357Do you see_ that_?
6357Do you think he''s not open to persuasion?
6357Do you think much of home, Charley, now that you have left it?
6357Do? 6357 Do?"
6357Do_ what_ for me?
6357Eh, what''s that? 6357 First of all, friend,"continued Harry,"do you belong to the fort here?"
6357Fond as ever of smoking, Louis?
6357Had I not better tell Tom Whyte to saddle the young horse for you?
6357Had we not better make our trap here, then? 6357 Harry, my, dear boy;"cried Mr. Kennedy, seizing his young friend by the hand;"how are you, lad?
6357Have the Indians, then, used any open threats?
6357Have we seen the worst of it?
6357Have you no place in the world to fight but_ here_? 6357 Have you slept well, darling?"
6357Have you told my father that she does?
6357He could n''t have got thirty guns, could he? 6357 Here''s an entry in Louis''s account that I ca n''t make out--30 something or other; what can it have been?"
6357How are the heels now, Hamilton?
6357How do you mean to act, Jacques?
6357How do your feet stand it, eh? 6357 How many traps have you?"
6357How much did yon give him?
6357How shall I keep the canoe''s head, Jacques?
6357How so, girl?
6357How so?
6357How so?
6357How will the snow help us?
6357I say, Jacques, is yon a cloud or a wreath of smoke above the trees in the creek?
6357I say, Jacques,said Charley, pulling up once more,"how do you get on?
6357I should like of all things to be introduced to the bold hunter.--Another cup of tea, Mr. S- Harry, I mean?
6357Indeed it is; but, then, what can you do?
6357Is it not likely that Misconna may have crossed the river already? 6357 Is that it, eh?"
6357Is the man mad?
6357Is the portage a long one?
6357Is the scoundrel caught?
6357Is there a good place at the other end to camp on?
6357Kate, my darling,said Mr. Kennedy, as he finished the last mouthful of tea,"would n''t it be capital to get another letter from Charley?"
6357No, not till the parson comes,interrupted Mr. Kennedy, convulsing his left cheek.--"Hollo, Charley, where are you?
6357Nor suggest to him that the appointment to the office here would only be temporary, and to see how he got on in it?
6357Now is n''t that a bore?
6357Now then, what say you to going farther out on the river, and making a snow trap for white foxes?
6357Now, you bad boy,said Kate,"why_ wo n''t_ you try to rest?"
6357O Charley,she continued,"why_ wo n''t_ you stay?"
6357Oh, and pray for what_ purpose_ have you come here?
6357Please, sir,began Tom, with a slightly disconcerted air,"I''m afeared, sir, that-- um--""Well, Tom, what would you say?
6357Pray, who did you leave to that delightful fate?
6357Say you so? 6357 Shall we get over in time, Louis?"
6357Strange,said his friend;"what_ can_ it be?"
6357Thank you, I''d rather not,said Harry;"and as for Hamilton, I''m convinced that_ his_ mind is made up on the subject.--How go the heels now?"
6357That''s a spirited horse, Kate,said Charley, as they ambled along;"have you had him long?"
6357That''s no reason,replied Charley,"why you should knock out all my front teeth, is it?"
6357The pipe, sir,said Tom, growing still more disconcerted--"says I to cook, says I,''Cook, wot''s been an''done it, d''ye think?''
6357Then do you think, master, that a man should_ never_ tell a lie, no matter what fix he may be in?
6357Then you know how to_ set_ a trap?
6357Thrusting his hands deep into his breeches pockets, and seating himself on an old sea- chest, he began,--''I say, Wilson, will you do me a favour?''
6357Tom,said the senior clerk,"do you think we could manage to mount Charley to- morrow?"
6357True; but that being, as you say, the_ natural_ route, do n''t you think it likely he''ll expect that it will be guarded, and avoid it accordingly?
6357Very good,said Harry;"and can you give us the least idea of what they are going to do with my friend Hamilton and me when they get us?"
6357Well, Hamilton,said Harry, throwing off his reverie with a deep sigh,"are you glad to leave York Fort, or sorry?"
6357Well, Peter,whispered Mr. Kennedy, senior, putting his head in at the door( it was Harry''s room in which Charley lay),"how is he now?"
6357Well, but ca n''t you do that here?
6357Well, my boy,said he, seating himself on the bedside and taking his son''s hand,"how goes it now?
6357Well, then, you must understand--"Must I? 6357 What can that be?"
6357What can the Injin mean, I wonder?
6357What did you give him?
6357What do you think of my friend there?
6357What do you think of_ that_, old fellow? 6357 What does?"
6357What prevented him coming with you, as you tell me he intended?
6357What say you to a walk through the woods to North River, Harry?
6357What shall we do, Harry? 6357 What should we do,"inquired the former,"if the plain were five or six miles broad?"
6357What think you now, Louis?
6357What was Redfeather thinking about?
6357What would you advise then?
6357What''s in the wind now?
6357What''s to be done?
6357What''s wrong now, Hammy?
6357What''s yon ahead?
6357What_ can_ it have been? 6357 What_ is_ comfort?
6357Where are your traps set?
6357Where do you come from then, and what''s your name?
6357Where is it?
6357Where''s the brown pony?
6357Where? 6357 Which?
6357Who am I to say did it?
6357Who can it be, I wonder?
6357Who does this belong to?
6357Who?
6357Why did n''t you bring him up without shoes, man, eh?
6357Why not?
6357Why, how came that about?
6357Why, how was that? 6357 Why, that''s another wolf, is n''t it?
6357Why? 6357 Will Mr. Charles speak for me?"
6357Will that do?
6357Will you just look at yonder rock ahead of us, and tell me what you see?
6357Will_ you_ come, Hamilton?
6357Would n''t it be a disinterested piece of kindness if you were to say it was yourself?
6357Would you like to go with us, Charley?
6357Yes; but how are we to catch them?
6357You do n''t mean, surely, to take so long a walk in the dark, do you? 6357 You have never seen anything like that before, I daresay?"
6357You knew a Charley Kennedy in the Saskatchewan, did you?
6357You''re not afraid of a fight, are you, Hamilton?
6357You''ve heerd of Sir John Franklin, I s''pose?
6357''Dog,''he cried again, while his eyes flashed fiercely, as he grasped me by the arm,''will you wrestle, or are you afraid?
6357''Why, you stupid, what did you take me for?
635730--30--not blankets, eh?"
6357And Wabisca, what came of her?
6357And if I get up, seize a hatchet, level the stump, cut away the root, and spread pine brush over the place, am I to be called lazy for doing so?
6357And who do you think this man Jacques is?
6357Are you aware, Hammy my boy, that the Saskatchewan district is a sort of terrestrial paradise, and Mackenzie River equivalent to Botany Bay?"
6357At last he said slowly--"Think of home?
6357Ay or no, lass: which is''t to be?''
6357Beginning to lose bark yet?"
6357But is n''t it, now, really a_ very_ hard case?"
6357But now, Kate, tell me, what do you think of father''s determination to have me placed in the office here?"
6357But tell me, Harry, have you spoken to Kate herself?"
6357But tell me, doctor, what do you mean to do with that lump of snow there?"
6357But tell me,''she added with still deeper anxiety,''does the white- feather come alone?
6357But who do you think can be_ en route_ so late?"
6357Can you forgive me, Kate?"
6357Charles?"
6357Charley assisted his friend to rise, and led him slowly back to the house, as he replied,--"Do, my boy?
6357Charley was silent for a few seconds; then heaving a deep sigh, he said,--"Well, I believe you''re right, Kate; but then, what am I to do?
6357Come now, Charley, what think you of it?"
6357Could n''t you tell me to look at the fire without the preliminary piece of advice to_ compose_ myself?
6357Could we not give it one trial more?
6357Did Misconna get her?"
6357Did he give you any hint as to where you might be sent to after reaching Norway House?"
6357Did you ever get it?
6357Did you ever hear of what he did the summer before last with an Indian''s head?"
6357Do n''t lose sight of me for a moment, and if you do by chance, give a shout; d''ye hear?"
6357Do n''t you see that the things are all aboard, and we''ll be ready to start in five minutes, and you sitting there with your neckcloths off?"
6357Do n''t you think it would be more pleasant?
6357Do you feel inclined for a walk?"
6357Do you feel queer, Harry?"
6357Do you think so, Jacques?"
6357Does he approach_ friends_ during the dark hours with a soft step like a fox?''
6357Does n''t the road take a turn there?
6357Grant, my fine fellow, how are you?"
6357Hang it, where''s my handkerchief?"
6357Has the brave boy''s heart changed into that of a girl?''
6357Have I not broken in young colts by the score?
6357Have they come yet?"
6357Have you got a tent?"
6357Have you no other?"
6357He has got a will of his own; and if you do not give him his way, I very much fear that he''ll--""What?"
6357Head getting all right again?
6357Home?
6357How are the heels?
6357How could they know better?
6357How far off is it?"
6357How''s that?"
6357I fear that Kate has been talking too much to you.--Is it so, you little chatterbox?"
6357I found papa writing at a small table, and the moment he heard my footstep he jumped up with a fierce frown, and shouted,"Who''s there?"
6357I have only been on him once before.--Would he make a good buffalo- runner, Jacques?"
6357I thank you, indeed, very much; but I-- a--""Do n''t like the desk?"
6357I''ve been waiting for you for months; why did you keep me so long, eh?
6357Is Charley Kennedy before me-- or his ghost?"
6357Is Kate there?"
6357Is he not a wonderful man, to have come through so much in his old age?
6357Is it better to die than to speak falsehood?"
6357Is it not so?"
6357Is n''t there something quite awful in them, Harry?"
6357Is that it?"
6357Is that it?"
6357Is that your desire?"
6357Is the horse too wild to ride?"
6357It is snowing, too, very heavily, and I think you said that North River was five miles off, did you not?"
6357Jacques, my good fellow, is that you?--Redfeather, my friend, how are you?"
6357Must I sit here till it is all consumed?"
6357Now I suppose you are aware that it is necessary to boil an Indian''s head in order to get the flesh clean off the skull?''
6357Now, wot I want to know is, wot''s the reason why?"
6357Of course you forgot me, and everybody and everything on earth, just now; but have you seen Kate?
6357Oho, Antoine!--By the way, Louis, have you seen Annette lately?"
6357Pray, who placed that piece of snow over the door?"
6357Pretty well stuffed by this time, I should imagine?"
6357Rather sore, eh?
6357Send him off to the woods with gun and blanket, canoe and tent, all complete?"
6357Shall we, Charley?"
6357Surely it is not an evidence of laziness, my endeavouring to render these instruments of torture less tormenting?
6357Tell me, Jacques, is there no way of escape?
6357Thanks.--Do you think you''re up to that, Hammy?"
6357That would not be sticking to truth, Jacques, would it?"
6357That''s pleasant!--What think you, Hammy?"
6357The odd part of it was that Kate, too, was affected in precisely the same way, and both of them exclaimed mentally,"Can it be possible?"
6357W''at''s wrong, sir?"
6357Well, how much will you have?"
6357Were you with them?"
6357What brought you here?"
6357What did you mean by it, eh?''
6357What did you say_ struck_ you, Harry, my lad?"
6357What have you to say?"
6357What they''ve come for is more than I can tell, but I suppose it''s connected with church affairs.--Now then, Kate, what''s come o''the dinner, Kate?
6357What think you of it?"
6357What was to prevent his being dug up?
6357What''s the use of thinking so long about it, eh?
6357What_ could_ have possessed her to take such a husband?
6357What_ is_ to be done?"
6357When were you reduced to that direful extremity?"
6357Where did you say you left him?"
6357Where is it?''
6357Where''s Kate, eh?
6357Where''s Kate, eh?
6357Why, what do you mean?"
6357Why, what_ is_ comfort?"
6357Would it not be better to set it up first?"
6357Would you like supper before we go, or shall we have it on our return?"
6357Would you not like me to stay with you?"
6357You do n''t mean to tell me that the way to break him in is to let him run loose and wild whenever and wherever he pleases?"
6357You might write an essay on it now, and call it the extraordinary effects of a fall of snow in latitude so and so, eh?
6357You recollect him, father?"
6357You''ve heard of an Indian called Misconna?"
6357You''ve heard of old Labontà ©, who used to carry one of the winter packets from Red River until within a few years back?"
6357and do n''t I know that the way to fix their flints is to clap on a good strong curb?"
6357asked Charley, somewhat anxiously;"not Mrs. Grant, I hope?
6357ca n''t swim?"
6357cried Harry, as he placed the kettle on the fire--"strange to be hungry after a five miles''walk and a night in the snow?
6357cried Harry,"what''s the row?"
6357cried Mr. Kennedy, turning sharply round and seizing Harry by the collar,"why d''you kick up such a row, eh?"
6357cried the senior clerk, losing all patience;"ca n''t you answer me without so much talk?
6357do n''t you hear a cry, Harry?"
6357do you feel quite strong enough?"
6357eh, blackguards?"
6357eh,"exclaimed the individual thus addressed, returning Harry''s gripe and stare with interest,"is it possible?
6357ejaculated Charley;"did anyone see me, Kate?"
6357exclaimed Kennedy,"and do you mean to argue from that, that I should let Charley run-- and_ help_ him too?
6357exclaimed the former,"have you got the miller''s pony for me?"
6357have you eaten it?"
6357he cried, standing over the crestfallen Indian with flushed face and flashing eyes,"how dare you thus treat the creatures of God?"
6357he exclaimed, suspending his operations for a moment,"what''s up?"
6357he said at length, stepping forward and confronting me,''will you wrestle?''
6357is n''t it strange?"
6357or thirty knives, or thirty copper kettles?"
6357said Baptiste, between his set teeth, while his eyes flashed angrily, and he stood up before Hugh with clinched fists,"what mean you by that, eh?"
6357shall we send for her?"
6357what cheer?"
6357what do you mean?"
6357what do you mean?"
6357what think ye of that, my boy?"
6357what''s going on yonder?"
6357what''s that?
6357what-- where?"
6357what?"
6357where is it?"
6357where''s Hamilton?"
6357where''s the kettle, Hamilton?
6357where?
6357why do I waste ink on so hopeless a task?
21712Ah, some beads and silks, eh? 21712 All right,"cried Harry, suppressing his feelings with a strong effort;"what next?"
21712An''p''r''aps you''ve heerd tell of his first trip of discovery along the shores of the Polar Sea?
21712An''please, master,put in Jacques,"when do you mean to let us off from this place?
21712An''where has''e been took to?
21712And Misconna?
21712And did you never see him again?
21712And did you not undeceive the greenhorn?
21712And do you intend to do so?
21712And does Jacques know he is here?
21712And does she agree?
21712And how much will that be?
21712And no one else?
21712And pray what is_ that_?
21712And pray, good Redfeather, what did your thoughts tell you?
21712And the black mare, can he not have that?
21712And the new horse?
21712And what of Charley?
21712And what was the result?
21712And why not with a red Indian, friend?
21712And woman too,interrupted Harry.--"Eh, Hamilton, what say you?
21712And your name?
21712And, pray, how far do you think we may now be from that place?
21712And, pray, what dog-- what miserable, thieving cur-- are you, who dare to address me thus?
21712Anon?
21712Any bark knocked off?
21712Anything else?
21712Anything more, Antoine?
21712But are you still thought a poor warrior?
21712But are you sure it wo n''t do you harm to talk? 21712 But do you think it_ really_ is one?"
21712But tell me, Charley, why do you care about Mrs Grant seeing you?
21712But what has all this to do with Peterkin?
21712By- the- bye, you''re going over to the missionary''s place to- morrow, are you not?
21712Can it be possible?
21712Could anything on earth break up or sink or melt that?
21712Could he not try the new horse?
21712Could n''t he have the brown pony?
21712Dear me, Harry, what''s wrong? 21712 Dear me, what has happened?"
21712Did Francois get better?
21712Did I ring for you, eh?
21712Did he sing of niggers?
21712Did n''t I say so?
21712Did you ever explain to him the prospects that he would have in the situation you propose for him?
21712Did you ever point out the probable end of a life spent in the woods?
21712Did you ever trap a fox, Harry?
21712Did''e not say w''en''e''d be''ome?
21712Do ducks travel in canoes hereabouts?
21712Do with it? 21712 Do you ever think of building a hut in such a spot as this, Jacques, and settling down altogether?"
21712Do you know any of the Indians who are so anxious to vent their spleen on our worthy bourgeois?
21712Do you mean to say that people''s heels really freeze and fall off?
21712Do you refer to the time when he was nearly starved to death, and when poor Hood was shot by the Indian?
21712Do you see_ that_?
21712Do you think he''s not open to persuasion?
21712Do you think much of home, Charley, now that you have left it?
21712Do? 21712 Do?"
21712Do_ what_ for me?
21712Done? 21712 Eh, what''s that?
21712First of all, friend,continued Harry,"do you belong to the fort here?"
21712Fond as ever of smoking, Louis?
21712Had I not better tell Tom Whyte to saddle the young horse for you?
21712Had we not better make our trap here, then? 21712 Have the Indians, then, used any open threats?"
21712Have we seen the worst of it?
21712Have you no place in the world to fight but_ here_--eh, blackguards?
21712Have you slept well, darling?
21712Have you told my father that she does?
21712He could n''t have got thirty guns, could he? 21712 Here''s an entry in Louis''s account that I ca n''t make out--30 something or other; what can it have been?"
21712How are the heels now, Hamilton?
21712How do you mean to act, Jacques?
21712How do your feet stand it, eh? 21712 How many traps have you?"
21712How much did you give him?
21712How shall I keep the canoe''s head, Jacques?
21712How so, girl?
21712How so?
21712How so?
21712How will the snow help us?
21712I say, Jacques, is yon a cloud or a wreath of smoke above the trees in the creek?
21712I say, Jacques,said Charley, pulling up once more,"how do you get on?
21712I should like of all things to be introduced to the bold hunter.--Another cup of tea, Mr S-- Harry, I mean?
21712Indeed it is; but then, what can you do?
21712Is it not likely that Misconna may have crossed the river already? 21712 Is that it, eh?"
21712Is the man mad?
21712Is the portage a long one?
21712Is there a good place at the other end to camp on?
21712Kate, my darling,said Mr Kennedy, as he finished the last mouthful of tea,"would n''t it be capital to get another letter from Charley?"
21712No, never; what was it?
21712No, not till the parson comes,interrupted Mr Kennedy, convulsing his left cheek.--"Hollo, Charley, where are you?
21712Nor suggest to him that the appointment to the office here would only be temporary, and to see how he got on in it?
21712Now, is n''t that a bore?
21712Now, then, what say you to going farther out on the river, and making a snow trap for white foxes?
21712Now, you bad boy,said Kate,"why_ wo n''t_ you try to rest?"
21712O Charley,she continued,"why_ wo n''t_ you stay?"
21712Please, sir,began Tom, with a slightly disconcerted air,"I''m afeard, sir, that-- um--""Well, Tom, what would you say?
21712Pray, who did you leave to that delightful fate?
21712Say you so? 21712 Shall we get over in time, Louis?"
21712Strange,said his friend;"what_ can_ it be?"
21712Thank you, I''d rather not,said Harry;"and as for Hamilton, I''m convinced that_ his_ mind is made up on the subject.--How go the heels now?"
21712That''s a spirited horse, Kate,said Charley, as they ambled along;"have you had him long?"
21712That''s no reason,replied Charley,"why you should knock out all my front teeth, is it?"
21712The pipe, sir,said Tom, growing still more disconcerted--"says I to cook, says I,` Cook, wot''s been an''done it, d''ye think?''
21712Then do you think, master, that a man should_ never_ tell a lie, no matter what fix he may be in?
21712Then you know how to_ set_ a trap?
21712Thrusting his hands deep into his breeches pockets and seating himself on an old sea- chest, he began,--` I say, Wilson, will you do me a favour?''
21712Tom,said the senior clerk,"do you think we could manage to mount Charley to- morrow?"
21712Very good,said Harry;"and can you give us the least idea of what they are going to do with my friend Hamilton and me when they get us?"
21712Well, Hamilton,said Harry, throwing off his reverie with a deep sigh,"are you glad to leave York Fort, or sorry?"
21712Well, Peter,whispered Mr Kennedy, senior, putting his head in at the door( it was Harry''s room in which Charley lay),"how is he now?"
21712Well, my boy,said he, seating himself on the bedside and taking his son''s hand,"how goes it now?
21712Well, then, you must understand--"Must I? 21712 What can that be?"
21712What can the Injin mean, I wonder?
21712What did you give him?
21712What do you think of my friend there?
21712What do you think of_ that_, old fellow? 21712 What does?"
21712What prevented him coming with you, as you tell me he intended?
21712What say you to a walk through the woods to North River, Harry?
21712What shall we do, Harry? 21712 What should we do,"inquired the former,"if the plain were five or six miles broad?"
21712What think you now, Louis?
21712What was Redfeather thinking about?
21712What would you advise, then?
21712What''s in the wind now?
21712What''s to be done?
21712What''s wrong now, Hammy?
21712What''s yon ahead?
21712What_ can_ it have been? 21712 What_ is_ comfort?
21712Where are your traps set?
21712Where do you come from, then, and what''s your name?
21712Where is it?
21712Where''s the brown pony?
21712Where? 21712 Which?
21712Who am I to say did it?
21712Who can it be, I wonder?
21712Who does this belong to?
21712Who?
21712Why did n''t you bring him up without shoes, man, eh?
21712Why not?
21712Why, how came that about?
21712Why, how was that? 21712 Why, that''s another wolf, is n''t it?
21712Why? 21712 Will Mr Charles speak for me?"
21712Will that do?
21712Will_ you_ come, Hamilton?
21712Would n''t it be a disinterested piece of kindness if you were to say it was yourself?
21712Would you like to go with us, Charley?
21712Yes; but how are we to catch them?
21712You do n''t mean, surely, to take so long a walk in the dark, do you? 21712 You have never seen anything like that before, I dare say?"
21712You have something to tell, Redfeather,said Jacques, in a subdued tone, after regarding him a few seconds;"is the scoundrel caught?"
21712You knew a Charley Kennedy in the Saskatchewan, did you?
21712You''re not afraid of a fight, are you, Hamilton?
21712You''ve heerd of Sir John Franklin, I s''pose?
21712` And what is that?'' 21712 ` Baking again, Anderson?''
21712` Did n''t I tell you, you young blackguard, that the grouse- pie was to be kept for Sunday? 21712 ` Do Knisteneux hunt at night, prowling in the bed of a stream?''
21712` Does the young wrestler want_ another_ wife?'' 21712 ` Has the light- hair got a medicine- bag, or does she speak with spirits, that she has found me so easily?''
21712` Well, sir,''said he,` do you wish to speak to me?'' 21712 30-- 30--not blankets, eh?
21712And Wabisca, what came of her?
21712And if I get up, seize a hatchet, level the stump, cut away the root, and spread pine brush over the place, am I to be called lazy for doing so?
21712And who do you think this man Jacques is?
21712Are you aware, Hammy, my boy, that the Saskatchewan district is a sort of terrestrial paradise, and Mackenzie River equivalent to Botany Bay?"
21712At last he said slowly--"Think of home?
21712Ay or no, lass; which is''t to be?''
21712Beginning to lose bark yet?"
21712But is n''t it, now, really a_ very_ hard case?"
21712But now, Kate, tell me, what do you think of father''s determination to have me placed in the office here?"
21712But tell me, Harry, have you spoken to Kate herself?"
21712But tell me, doctor, what do you mean to do with that lump of snow there?"
21712But tell me,''she added, with still deeper anxiety,` does the white- feather come alone?
21712But who do you think can be_ en route_ so late?"
21712But you spoke of eating your shoes, Jacques; when were you reduced to that direful extremity?"
21712Can you forgive me, Kate?"
21712Charley assisted his friend to rise, and led him slowly back to the house, as he replied--"Do, my boy?
21712Charley was silent for a few seconds; then heaving a deep sigh, he said,--"Well, I believe you''re right, Kate; but then, what am I to do?
21712Come now, Charley, what think you of it?"
21712Could we not give it one trial more?
21712Did Misconna get her?"
21712Did he give you any hint as to where you might be sent to after reaching Norway House?"
21712Did you ever get it?
21712Did you ever hear of what he did the summer before last with an Indian''s head?"
21712Did you ever try to look pale and frightened, Mr Charles?"
21712Do n''t lose sight of me for a moment, and if you do by chance, give a shout; d''ye hear?"
21712Do n''t you see that the things are all aboard, and we''ll be ready to start in five minutes, and you sitting there with your neckcloths off?"
21712Do n''t you think it would be more pleasant?
21712Do you feel inclined for a walk?"
21712Do you feel queer, Harry?"
21712Do you think so, Jacques?"
21712Does he approach_ friends_ during the dark hours with a soft step like a fox?''
21712Does n''t the road take a turn there?
21712Grant, my fine fellow, how are you?"
21712Hang it, where''s my handkerchief?"
21712Has the brave boy''s heart changed into that of a girl?''
21712Have I not broken in young colts by the score?
21712Have they come yet?"
21712Have you got a tent?"
21712Have you no other?"
21712He has got a will of his own; and if you do not give him his way, I very much fear that he''ll--""What?"
21712Head getting all right again?
21712Home?
21712How are the heels?
21712How far off is it?"
21712How''s that?"
21712I fear that Kate has been talking too much to you.--Is it so, you little chatterbox?"
21712I found papa writing at a small table, and the moment he heard my footstep he jumped up with a fierce frown and shouted,"Who''s there?"
21712I have only been on him once before.--Would he make a good buffalo- runner, Jacques?"
21712I thank you, indeed, very much; but I-- a--""Do n''t like the desk?"
21712I''ve been waiting for you for months; why did you keep me so long, eh?
21712Is Charley Kennedy before me-- or his ghost?"
21712Is Kate there?"
21712Is he not a wonderful man, to have come through so much in his old age?
21712Is it better to die than to speak falsehood?"
21712Is it not so?"
21712Is n''t there something quite awful in them, Harry?"
21712Is that it?"
21712Is that it?"
21712Is that your desire?"
21712Is the horse too wild to ride?"
21712It is snowing, too, very heavily, and I think you said that North River was five miles off, did you not?"
21712Jacques, my good fellow, is that you?--Redfeather, my friend, how are you?"
21712Must I sit here till it is all consumed?"
21712Now I suppose you are aware that it is necessary to boil an Indian''s head in order to get the flesh clean off the skull?''
21712Now, wot I want to know is, wot''s the reason why?"
21712Of course you forgot me, and everybody and everything on earth, just now; but have you seen Kate?
21712Oho, Antoine!--By the way, Louis, have you seen Annette lately?"
21712Pray, who placed that piece of snow over the door?"
21712Pretty well stuffed by this time, I should imagine?"
21712Rather sore, eh?
21712Send him off to the woods with gun and blanket, canoe and tent, all complete?"
21712Shall we, Charley?"
21712Surely it is not an evidence of laziness my endeavouring to render these instruments of torture less tormenting?
21712Tell me, Jacques, is there no way of escape?
21712Thanks.--Do you think you''re up to that, Hammy?"
21712That would not be sticking to truth, Jacques, would it?"
21712That''s pleasant!--What think you, Hammy?"
21712The odd part of it was that Kate, too, was affected in precisely the same way, and both of them exclaimed mentally,"Can it be possible?"
21712W''at''s wrong, sir?"
21712Well, how much will you have?"
21712Were you with them?"
21712What brought you here?"
21712What did you mean by it, eh?''
21712What did you say_ struck_ you, Harry, my lad?"
21712What have you to say?"
21712What they''ve come for is more than I can tell, but I suppose it''s connected with church affairs.--Now then, Kate, what''s come o''the dinner, Kate?
21712What think you of it?"
21712What was to prevent his being dug up?
21712What''s the use of thinking so long about it, eh?
21712What_ is_ to be done?"
21712Where did you say you left him?"
21712Where is it?''
21712Where''s Kate, eh?
21712Where''s Kate, eh?
21712Who ever heard of a man being supported by his old father?"
21712Why, what do you mean?"
21712Why, what_ is_ comfort?"
21712Would it not be better to set it up first?"
21712Would you like supper before we go, or shall we have it on our return?"
21712Would you not like me to stay with you?"
21712You do n''t mean to tell me that the way to break him in is to let him run loose and wild whenever and wherever he pleases?"
21712You might write an essay on it now, and call it the extraordinary effects of a fall of snow in latitude so and so, eh?
21712You recollect him, father?"
21712You tell me that you have met with my friend Redfeather?"
21712You''ve heard of an Indian called Misconna?"
21712You''ve heard of old Labonte, who used to carry one of the winter packets from Red River until within a few years back?"
21712` Why, you stupid, what did you take me for?
21712and do n''t I know that the way to fix their flints is to clap on a good strong curb?"
21712and pray for what_ purpose_ have you come here?"
21712are you trying to stop the wind by looking it out of countenance?"
21712asked Charley, somewhat anxiously;"not Mrs Grant, I hope?
21712ca n''t swim?"
21712cried Harry, as he placed the kettle on the fire--"strange to be hungry after a five miles''walk and a night in the snow?
21712cried Harry,"what''s the row?"
21712cried Mr Kennedy, seizing his young friend by the hand;"how are you, lad?
21712cried Mr Kennedy, turning sharply round and seizing Harry by the collar,"why d''you kick up such a row, eh?"
21712cried the senior clerk, losing all patience;"ca n''t you answer me without so much talk?
21712do n''t you hear a cry, Harry?"
21712do you feel quite strong enough?"
21712eh,"exclaimed the individual thus addressed, returning Harry''s gripe and stare with interest,"is it possible?
21712ejaculated Charley;"did any one see me, Kate?"
21712exclaimed Kennedy,"and do you mean to argue from that, that I should let Charley run-- and_ help_ him too?
21712exclaimed the former,"have you got the miller''s pony for me?"
21712have you eaten it?"
21712have you not learned that yet?"
21712he cried again, while his eyes flashed fiercely, and he grasped me by the arm,` will you wrestle, or are you afraid?
21712he cried, standing over the crestfallen Indian with flushed face and flashing eyes,"how dare you thus treat the creatures of God?"
21712he exclaimed, suspending his operations for a moment,"what''s up?"
21712he said at length, stepping forward and confronting me,` will you wrestle?''
21712how could they know better?
21712is n''t it strange?"
21712or thirty knives, or thirty copper kettles?"
21712said Baptiste, between his set teeth, while his eyes flashed angrily, and he stood up before Hugh with clinched fists,"what mean you by that, eh?"
21712said Mactavish, pointing sarcastically to an entry in the previous account--"5_ yards of superfine Annette_?
21712shall we send for her?"
21712what cheer?"
21712what do you mean?"
21712what do you mean?"
21712what think ye of that, my boy?"
21712what''s going on yonder?"
21712what''s that?
21712what-- where?"
21712what?"
21712where is it?"
21712where''s Hamilton?"
21712where''s the kettle, Hamilton?
21712where?
21712why do I waste ink on so hopeless a task?
11328Afraid-- for me?
11328After all those years-- he found her?
11328Am I shot?
11328An''--an''you know this?
11328And Quade?
11328And are you sorry?
11328And he believes you will do it?
11328And how many of the other kind have you made?
11328And it will be dangerous, too? 11328 And may I ask what some of them were?"
11328And that was a creepy sort of conversation to load you down with, was n''t it, Ladygray? 11328 And that was-- all?"
11328And the grave, Mac?
11328And the way I have looked at you?
11328And this man, the half- breed, has sold himself-- for a woman?
11328And we can get there ahead of them?
11328And why utterly?
11328And will it disappoint you, Mr. John Aldous, if I tell you that all these figures stand for riches which some one else possesses? 11328 And without friends you are going--_there?_"she cried.
11328And yet you are going?
11328And you are to stay with the Ottos?
11328And you compare me to--_her?_"Yes,said Aldous deliberately.
11328And you dare to say-- you dare to_ think_ that she is not your wife?
11328And you had a reason-- you and MacDonald-- for not wanting the girls to know the truth?
11328And you love me, Joanne?
11328And you mean that you would fight for me-- again?
11328And you think I''ll go in the Frazer?
11328And you will talk to me?
11328And you wo n''t forget to tell Mrs. Blackton that we may not return by four o''clock?
11328And you would come to me without reservation, Joanne, trusting me, believing in me-- you would come to me body, and heart, and soul?
11328And you, John Aldous? 11328 And you, John?"
11328And you-- are his daughter?
11328And your plan, Donald?
11328Any bones broken?
11328Any watch to- night, Donald?
11328Are we going to encounter worse things than beasts, and poisonous serpents, and murderous savages-- even hunger and thirst, John? 11328 Are you gettin''lame, Mis''Joanne?"
11328Are you just a little ashamed of me, John?
11328Are you sorry-- so very, very sorry that you let me come, John?
11328Ashamed? 11328 But it is so nearly finished, you say?"
11328But-- if it should rain?
11328Ca n''t I see, Aldous? 11328 Can you direct me to it, please?"
11328Can you find it?
11328Can you never see beyond my hair, John Aldous?
11328Dear God in Heaven, Joanne-- can you not hear them? 11328 Dear John, you love me?"
11328Did I hit you pretty hard, Bill?
11328Did Quade get me with the knife?
11328Did you see anything over the range?
11328Do n''t you see? 11328 Do n''t you understand?"
11328Do you care a great deal for riches?
11328Do you hear?
11328Do you?
11328Does the golden pot at the end of the rainbow hold out a lure for you?
11328For me?
11328God bless her soul-- what for?
11328Gone?
11328Got the checks, Aldous?
11328H''are you buying''orses or looking for hinformation?
11328Half a dozen''Noblemen,''he said to the man behind the counter; then, to Rann:"Will you have one on me?"
11328Has old Donald written you lately?
11328Have you?
11328He found her-- he found her?
11328He''s done that?
11328How many?
11328How much?
11328How the deuce did you get here?
11328How-- both?
11328I might as well be frank, do n''t you think? 11328 I was coming-- in a moment,"she said,"I was beginning to fear that----""--he had struck me down in the dark?"
11328I-- I am a little late, am I not, Joanne?
11328If it was n''t enough do you think I''d be out of bed at this hour of the night?
11328If we start now----"Can you have everything ready by morning?
11328Including blankets, saddles, pack- saddles, ropes, and canvases?
11328Is it a go?
11328Is it a go?
11328Is it checkmate?
11328Is it necessary for me to tell you what this man Quade is-- why he was looking through the window?
11328Is it to be like''Fair Play?''
11328Is it worse than fever, and famine, and deep swamps, and crawling jungles?
11328Is n''t_ that_ funny?
11328Is she asleep, Johnny?
11328Is there no other place where you can stay?
11328It ca n''t be that you had very bad dreams, little wife?
11328It do n''t seem very far now, do it, Joanne?
11328It was really quite heroic of me to follow you into Bill''s place, do n''t you think? 11328 Joanne, my darling, you understand now-- why I wanted to come alone into the North?"
11328Joanne, wo n''t you stay with the Blacktons, to please me?
11328Joanne, you do n''t think they wo n''t dig us out, do you? 11328 Joanne,"he whispered, holding her two hands against his breast,"you are not afraid?"
11328John, have you already forgotten what we said in that terrible cavern-- what we told ourselves we would have done if we had lived? 11328 John, is it_ that?_"she cried, and joy shone through her tears.
11328John?
11328Johnny,he said gently,"Johnny, be you sure of yourself?
11328Kill me?
11328Like-- Stevens'', for instance?
11328Look here, MacDonald-- what in thunder has happened? 11328 Looks as though I''d run away, do n''t it, Johnny?"
11328Mac, are you sure you can go to the valley of gold without DeBar?
11328May I hire one until the train leaves for Tête Jaune Cache?
11328Not with two guides, a cook, and a horse- wrangler on your pay- roll-- and a hospital bill as big as Geikie staring you in the face?
11328Now, what do''ee think, Johnny?
11328Peggy----"Why in heaven''s name do you light a match then, with us standing over all those tons of dynamite?
11328Pretty near a billion, ai n''t it?
11328Quade?
11328See here, Aldous, you did n''t mean what you said last night, did you? 11328 See here, Johnny, boy-- tell me what''s in your mind?"
11328Shall we wander up on the mountain?
11328She wants to see me?
11328So there_ is_ an advantage on their side, is n''t there, Mac? 11328 So you did n''t send that damned note?"
11328Take this, will''ee, Johnny boy?
11328That ai n''t why you''re doin''this-- for me''n the kid-- is it?
11328That means-- the wild country?
11328Then if they do n''t find us to- morrow, we''ll go back home?
11328Then to- morrow we can go to the grave?
11328Then you have n''t heard of his-- accident?
11328There is no danger, is there, Donald?
11328They are, are they, Donald? 11328 They have n''t shot her?"
11328They might-- follow?
11328They would have killed you?
11328This is n''t much like the shell plaza in front of the Cape Verde, is it?
11328To- morrow?
11328Up there in the North-- there are no people?
11328Wait?
11328Want some fresh court- plaster?
11328Want to see him?
11328We are near the cavern?
11328Well?
11328Were you asleep, Johnny?
11328Were you going to fish me out-- or the colt?
11328What I have said?
11328What am I going to do, Mac? 11328 What can I do?"
11328What can that grave have to do with Quade?
11328What d''ye mean-- home stretch?
11328What do you mean?
11328What do you mean?
11328What do you mean?
11328What has frightened you, Joanne?
11328What in heaven''s name is the matter?
11328What is it?
11328What is it?
11328What time is it?
11328What time is it?
11328What was it, dear?
11328What was the dream?
11328What you goin''to do?
11328What''s the matter, Mac?
11328What''s the matter, Peter?
11328When did this happen?
11328When will Donald return?
11328Where is Quade?
11328Where is she? 11328 Who''s your new friend?"
11328Whose face?
11328Why do n''t you come right out and tell me to stay at home, instead of-- of--''beating''round the bush''--as Peggy Blackton says? 11328 Why would n''t it be just as well if I told the police of his threat?"
11328Why?
11328Will the train stop here very long?
11328Will you go out there with me, in the sunlight, where we can look down upon the little lake?
11328Will you help me into the wagon? 11328 Will you promise me that, John?"
11328Will you tell me?
11328Wo n''t you be my guest, Ladygray?
11328Wo n''t you let me thank you-- a last time?
11328Wo n''t you take a little walk with me right after dinner?
11328Would he--_dare?_she demanded.
11328Would it be a grizzly, John?
11328Would you mind telling me?
11328You ai n''t seen or heard anything, Johnny?
11328You are going to Tête Jaune?
11328You are new?
11328You are no longer afraid, Ladygray? 11328 You are not afraid of-- death?"
11328You believe that?
11328You do n''t mean, John-- there''s more about Quade-- and Culver Rann?
11328You do n''t think I''m sellin''myself, do you, Aldous?
11328You figger they''ll get away with DeBar?
11328You found Jane?
11328You have lived that life, Ladygray?
11328You have made a mistake?
11328You have no husband-- no brother----"What place is this?
11328You have seen it?
11328You mean on the adventure you were telling me about?
11328You mean that you will kill him?
11328You remember what you told me, Johnny, that you''d play the game fair, and give''em a first chance? 11328 You see the little cabin-- nearest the river?"
11328You sick?
11328You still believe that I will be unable to take care of myself up at this terrible Tête Jaune?
11328You think they will show up to- morrow?
11328You will excuse me, wo n''t you, while I finish my hair?
11328You will make yourself at home while I am gone, wo n''t you?
11328You wo n''t fight-- over the gold?
11328You would be my wife?
11328You''d take her along?
11328You''ll be there, Mac-- in front of the Blacktons''--just as it''s growing light?
11328You''re sure of it, Peter?
11328You''ve discovered something to- day?
11328A few minutes later, when Aldous was saying good- night to MacDonald, the old hunter said again, in a whisper:"Now what do''ee think, Johnny?"
11328After all, was it so strange that Quade would do these things?
11328After local colour?"
11328Am I a curiosity?"
11328And I should play up to my part, should n''t I?
11328And I''m wondering----""If I''m going to choke, too?"
11328And by whom?
11328And does he want you to do this pretty job because I gave him a crack on the jaw?"
11328And if alive?
11328And if, through years and years, I faced those things with my father, do you suppose that I want to be left behind now, and by my husband?"
11328And if-- if she goes I ca n''t very well follow her, can I, Mac?"
11328And it makes the game most eminently fair, does n''t it?"
11328And our outfit?
11328And then----""Well?"
11328And was Quade actually planning the same end for him and Joanne?
11328And was their assassination the first step in a plot to secure possession of the treasure?
11328And what reason could this Culver Rann have for doing him injury?
11328And why was she going to Tête Jaune?
11328And wo n''t you let me remind you that we''re getting a long way from what I want to know-- about your trip into the North?"
11328And you-- Donald?"
11328And, even though he kept the truth from her until Mortimer FitzHugh was dead, would he be playing fair with her?
11328Are these great, big, beautiful mountains more treacherous than those Ceylon jungles from which you ran away-- even you, John?
11328Are they all drowned?"
11328Are they more terrible to live in than the Great African Desert?
11328Are you cold?
11328Are you glad?"
11328Are you in on this with me?"
11328Are you ready?"
11328Are your bears worse than tigers, your wolves more terrible than lions?
11328As they entered the bungalow, Aldous whispered to Joanne:"Will you please go right to your room, dear?
11328At last he heard her say:"Where is Donald?"
11328Be you a man, Johnny?"
11328Besides----""What?"
11328But could he keep Joanne from guessing?
11328But had Joe DeBar, the half- breed, actually betrayed them?
11328But most of''em have come over, ai n''t they, Culver?
11328But what the devil_ is_ the trouble?"
11328But why did you run?
11328But why does Donald talk as though we are_ surely_ going to be attacked by them, or are_ surely_ going to attack them?
11328But why, he asked himself again and again, should Culver Rann want to kill him?
11328But-- what you goin''to do?"
11328But-- will you?"
11328By_ what?_ A little fiercely he packed his pipe with fresh tobacco.
11328Ca n''t you understand plain English, Stevens?
11328Could he keep her from discovering the truth until it was time for her to know that truth?
11328Could he keep that terrible truth from her?
11328Curious old ghost, is n''t he?"
11328Curly?"
11328D''ye think I''m blind?
11328Dammit, man, do n''t you know his system?
11328Did you pick up any of the little red bloodshells?
11328Do n''t say anything to Joanne, but bring him to the house right away, will you?"
11328Do n''t you believe a man when he''s a gentleman?
11328Do n''t you see that I ca n''t?
11328Do n''t you understand?
11328Do you ask me why I go now?
11328Do you mean to tell me you''re on the square when you offer to turn over a half of your share in the gold if I help you to get this woman?"
11328Do you mind if I tell him to come back and ride with you for a while?"
11328Do you see that black base of the mountain yonder?--right there where you can see men moving about?
11328Do you want to be square enough to give me a word?"
11328Eh, Johnny?"
11328Eh?
11328Find the coffee, will you?
11328Get out your emergency kit, will you?
11328Had Culver Rann discovered the secret mission on which he and the old mountaineer were going into the North?
11328Had he learned of the gold-- where it was to be found?
11328Had he sold himself to Culver Rann, and did Rann hold the key to the secret expedition they had planned into the North?
11328Have I made you feel that?"
11328Have you?"
11328He added, smiling straight into the other''s eyes,"What are you doing up here, Aldous?
11328He would n''t say Ladygray as if she wore a coronet, would he?"
11328How did you know?"
11328How much do you want a head?"
11328How the devil am I going to get out of it?"
11328How will a four o''clock breakfast suit you?"
11328How would Quade, who was mad for possession of Joanne, accept FitzHugh''s claim of ownership?
11328I suppose you know what a salted mine is, Ladygray?
11328If she had seen a bear in the fire- glow she would n''t have thought it was Mortimer FitzHugh, would she?
11328If she went with him into the North, would she not guess?
11328If they found Joanne''s husband alive at Tête Jaune-- what then?
11328If you do----""What will happen?"
11328If you were afraid of snakes, why did you go up the Gampola, in Ceylon?"
11328Is it a bargain?"
11328Is it ready?"
11328Is it very remarkable that you do not find me happy, Mac?
11328Is that suspicious, or ai n''t it?
11328Is there a hotel here?"
11328It had that peculiar effect on us, did n''t it, Peggy?"
11328It was a terribly close shave, was n''t it?"
11328It was n''t a pretty sight, was it?"
11328John, dear, are n''t you going to mind me?"
11328John?"
11328Lord bless me, did you hear them last night-- after you went to bed?"
11328May I sit with you for a few minutes?
11328My God, I did n''t make you think_ that?_""I''m a stranger-- and they say women do n''t go to Tête Jaune alone,"she answered doubtfully.
11328Need I tell you that I worshipped him-- that to me he was king of all men?
11328Now how the deuce can I explain going through a window like a gentleman?"
11328Now, if some one were to touch off those explosives at this minute---- What''s the matter, Peggy?
11328Now, yo''fool, what have yo''gone an''done?"
11328On the other hand, was this arrangement fair to Joanne, even though it gave him the chance to square up accounts with Quade?
11328Only----""What?"
11328Otto?"
11328Otto?"
11328Perhaps it is this-- your desire for adventure-- that makes you want to go with me to Tête Jaune?"
11328Perhaps it was imagination that made him think there was a slight tremble in her voice when she said:"This-- is the place?"
11328Quade has a tremendous amount of nerve, setting Slim to follow her, has n''t he?
11328See that bunch of spruce over there?"
11328See the point, Johnny?
11328See them thick spruce an''cedar over there?
11328Shall I move out there?"
11328So am I. I hope----""What do you hope?"
11328So why crave riches, then?
11328Then Quade asked:"Any need of writin'', Culver?"
11328Then he said,"You''re thinkin''of me, Johnny, an''what we was planning on?"
11328Then he said:"Do you see that break over there across the plain?
11328Then he said:"You''re sure of all this, are you, Donald?
11328Then she said, very softly:"And why do you think that will displease me, John, dear?
11328Then why do you go for this gold?
11328There''s nothing in that hand, is there?"
11328They asked themselves no questions-- why the"coyote"had not been fired?
11328They have all asked the same question: Why do you not write of the good things in women instead of always the bad?
11328They''re going to kill us?"
11328To him it will be-- what?
11328Understand?"
11328Was Stevens right in that detail?
11328Was he lying in wait for him near the cabin?
11328Was he mad?
11328Was it again to play its part in a terrible drama of men''s lives, as it had played it more than forty years ago?
11328Was it possible that there might be some other opening-- a possible exit-- in that mountain wall?
11328Was it right for him to take Joanne to his cabin at all?
11328Was n''t that funny?
11328Was that thought in Joanne''s mind, too?
11328Was the old tragedy of it to be lived over again?
11328We were going adventuring, were n''t we?
11328What are you going to do meantime, Aldous?"
11328What can I do?
11328What could be her mission at Tête Jaune Cache?
11328What do you say?"
11328What do you think of_ that_, Aldous?
11328What is it?"
11328What time is it, John?"
11328What was the deeper significance of this visit to the grave, and of her mission in the mountains?
11328Where had she come from?
11328Where is Joanne?"
11328Who shot you?
11328Who was she?
11328Who was this Joanne Gray?
11328Why I shall fight, if fighting there must be?"
11328Why did n''t they jump on us when they had the chance?"
11328Why did n''t you stay and fight?"
11328Why did you warn me?"
11328Why do they stare at me so?
11328Why do you run the risk?
11328Why do you want me to lie here when I''m strong like an ox, as Donald says?"
11328Why had Joanne not confided more fully in him?
11328Why had Quade stolen on ahead to Tête Jaune?
11328Why had he not waited for to- morrow''s train?
11328Why not have these friends meet them at the train and take Joanne direct to their house?
11328Why should FitzHugh come over into this valley alone?
11328Why should n''t I be, if I know that you are in danger?"
11328Why should they follow us-- if we leave them everything?
11328Why should they, John?
11328Why, John, do n''t you see, do n''t you understand?
11328Will that be too much trouble for you and your wife?"
11328Will you agree to that?"
11328Will you believe me?
11328Will you excuse me while I pick up a few things that I want to take on to Tête Jaune with me?"
11328Will you leave''em to me?"
11328Will you let me be a friend, if you need a friend?"
11328Will you please hurry me to it, John Aldous?"
11328Will you tell her that?"
11328Will you, Mac?
11328Will you?
11328Will you?"
11328Without knowing, seeing me only as you have seen me, do you think that I am terrible?"
11328Would he believe his partner?
11328Would he even believe Joanne if, to save herself from him, she told him FitzHugh was her husband?
11328Would you try to cross?"
11328Yo''ca n''t very well miss a man at a hunderd yards, Johnny?"
11328Yo''re sure-- there ai n''t no one following?"
11328You ai n''t figgerin''on that now, be you?"
11328You are going to tell me that?"
11328You can imagine a lover saying''Dear little_ Lady_gray, are you warm and comfy?''
11328You did n''t mean-- that?"
11328You do n''t believe in concealing your thoughts out here in the wilderness, do you?"
11328You do n''t think it is immodest for me to say these things to my husband, John-- even if I have only known him three days?"
11328You have good proof-- that Joe has turned traitor?"
11328You have n''t heard-- about the bear?"
11328You know every mountain and trail about the place, do n''t you?"
11328You remember Stimson?"
11328You see the system, Johnny?
11328You will come early?"
11328You would n''t guess that for more than forty years that blessed old wanderer ahead of us has loved a dead woman, would you?
11328You would n''t leave me among them, would you?"
11328You would not have forgotten that, John-- or have grown tired?"
11328You''re going to be polite enough to accept, are n''t you?"
11328_ Is n''t_ it funny?"
11328gang has done?"
29266A woman out there, eh? 29266 Ah,"replied Millicent sharply,"did n''t you tell me that they were worth sixteen shillings not very long ago?
29266All that is outside the question-- what can we do?
29266Am I not harassed sufficiently? 29266 And their expert would n''t see that fault?"
29266And what became of the lady?
29266And you like it? 29266 Another second would have done it-- did I heave him clear?"
29266Are you coming to torment me about that confounded thing? 29266 Are you mad, Julius?"
29266Auntie, you will see to father-- he has been better lately-- for just a little while, will not you?
29266But did n''t you get a dollar from Graham yesterday? 29266 But if you know the man, and it''s so easy, why not make the bet yourself?"
29266But might n''t he try the same game again?
29266But why do you ask me?
29266But will the end or dominant purpose justify all this?
29266Ca n''t you speak?
29266Can you drive over to my quarters now?
29266Can you make your dykes stand water at all?
29266Can you not guess how hard it all is for me?
29266Can you tell me, Mr. Nelson, who is Coralie?
29266Certainly not, if you can put up with my company; but where is your husband?
29266Could she not have waited?
29266Dare I ask, sir, what the trouble was?
29266Did any of your own men do it?
29266Did he say Mr. Graham hired him?
29266Did my husband tell you that when we were in England, we were held up by a storm there one night in your ancestral home? 29266 Did they mention what Geoffrey had been doing?"
29266Did you fall or jump in?
29266Did you know that it was Mrs. Leslie Geoffrey should have married?
29266Did you lynch the miscreant in accordance with the traditional customs of the West, or how did Mr. Thurston punish him? 29266 Did you notice how I had the path graded as you went down?"
29266Did you suppose that I would sell my benefactor, for that is what it amounts to? 29266 Do I think he is out of danger?
29266Do you consider the timbering specified here sufficient for the strain?
29266Do you know that you have not answered my last question, nor spoken a word for the last ten minutes?
29266Do you know their wages equal the figure the strikers demanded and you refused to pay? 29266 Do you mean a professional soothsayer?"
29266Do you mind telling me how long it is since you or anybody else has used this path, Miss Savine?
29266Do you remember what I once told you at Graham''s ranch?
29266Do you think he would care to meet you?
29266Do you think women are utterly foolish, or that they converse about dams and earthworks?
29266Had you not better rest until to- morrow, sir?
29266Hallo, is it you, Evans?
29266Hardly an original observation, is it? 29266 Has Savine bought up the whole province, Government and all?
29266Has Thurston come into town yet? 29266 Has a dark- faced thief in a plug hat with two holes in the top of it, gone out on the cars?"
29266Have I displeased you?
29266Have n''t you read the letter I sent you? 29266 Have these woods no charm for you, or are you regretting the cigarbox beneath the cedar?"
29266Have you not been happy in-- Canada, Millicent?
29266He was in the drilling gang, Tom?
29266Helen, why do n''t you hunt round for that bottle?
29266How did that happen?
29266How do I know?
29266How many years do you figure on keeping us waiting?
29266How much did the explosives cost you?
29266Hurt bad?
29266I catch on-- correct phrase, is n''t it?
29266I do n''t understand,said Thurston, and Savine answered:"No?
29266I have told Mr. Thurston-- that is, I have tried to warn him that he was expecting the impossible, and what more could I do? 29266 I presume you do not wish me to swallow it immediately?"
29266I suppose he has the money?
29266I suppose you could n''t very well explain that it was Geoffrey who threw you over? 29266 I suppose you have n''t seen old Anthony Thurston since you married Leslie?
29266If you will excuse me, is not that beside the question? 29266 Is it right to judge so hastily?"
29266Is n''t it enough that you presume to read my private correspondence? 29266 Is n''t it somewhat late in the day?"
29266Is n''t that the man who wanted you to marry Thurston, and when you disappointed him washed his hands of both of you?
29266Is not all this beside the question?
29266Is that not a cruel plan of action, and is there no room for a gentler policy in your profession? 29266 Is there any place fit to sit in at the saloon yonder?"
29266Is there no limit to your interference or presumption?
29266Is there nobody who will give you a start again? 29266 It was good of you to come, Geoffrey,"he said;"How are you getting on in the cañon?"
29266It would n''t have counted for much with you?
29266Knowing this, you will all be very loyal to him?
29266Leslie passed her up the gangway,said another man, adding, with a suggestive laugh as he answered another question:"Why did he do it?
29266Maybe you met the master in British Columbia?
29266No use letting any ugly tales get round or raking up that other story, is it? 29266 Now, what the devil tempted me to ruin all my prospects by marrying that woman?"
29266Orchard City, or was it Orchardville? 29266 Say, had n''t you better help us heave him in some place where he can sleep, unless you''d prefer to keep him as an advertisement?"
29266So, if it is not an intrusion, may I ask if any of those border warriors were remarkable for deeds of self- abnegation or charity?
29266Still, can anybody avoid the results of those shortcomings or virtues?
29266Suppose in desperation I turned round on you?
29266Suppose it was I who found the drawing? 29266 Suppose we refuse?"
29266The investing public understands that, does n''t it? 29266 The question is, however-- What do you want with me?"
29266The terms?
29266Then what are we to do?
29266Then why ca n''t you confine your efforts to the men? 29266 Then why do you try?"
29266Uncommonly glad to see you; but whatever brought you back to this far- off land again?
29266Wantee someling, sah?
29266We will, as I say, shelter Mrs. Leslie, and, since you insist, will you ask your assistant to accompany me?
29266Well, how are you getting on up in the valley?
29266Well?
29266Well?
29266Were there no openings for a live man in the Old Country, and have you told me all?
29266What are you doing here at such an hour with this man, Millicent?
29266What are you doing it for?
29266What are you puzzling over, Geoffrey?
29266What do you think of my new assistant, Helen?
29266What has gone wrong? 29266 What has happened to me, and is he learning quickly or growing strangely timid?"
29266What has happened to you?
29266What in the name of thunder do you mean by turning your infernal river loose on my ranch?
29266What is his full name, and what is he like?
29266What is it we pay taxes to keep you fellows for? 29266 What is it, Harry?"
29266What is the matter? 29266 What made you bolt from here, and what do you want from me?
29266What part of Canada?
29266What''s the matter now, Millicent? 29266 What''s the matter with trying again, and keeping on trying?
29266Where have all my logs gone to?
29266Where have you hidden my wife? 29266 Where shall I begin?"
29266Who is the little man next to Walla Jake?
29266Who on earth could it be?
29266Who was the lady? 29266 Who, in the name of perdition, would lend me the money?
29266Why did he do so?
29266Why did n''t you come in two minutes earlier, Tom?
29266Why did n''t you talk yesterday morning?
29266Why did you do that-- now?
29266Why did you speak to that poor man so cruelly?
29266Why do you let him?
29266Why should I press him?
29266Why should this fancy spoil your life for you?
29266Why should you ask me? 29266 Why should you make yourself intolerable?"
29266Why? 29266 Why?"
29266Will you believe me if I say that I lately ran some risk to bring Mr. Thurston a much- needed warning? 29266 Will you believe not only that I sympathize, but that I would gladly have given all I possess to save you from this shock?"
29266Would it be any use for me to say that I shall miss you?
29266Would it be of any use if you explained the trouble to him?
29266Would it hurt the machine if I stood it upon its head, Miss Savine?
29266Would you care to hold a rock drill, or swing a sledge instead?
29266Would you have expected him to write?
29266Would you have me a thief?
29266You do n''t figure they''re capable of wrecking the bridge?
29266You do n''t suppose I''ve suddenly grown helpless, do you?
29266You fixed it all right?
29266You wo n''t fail to come back as soon as ever you can-- say the day after to- morrow?
29266You would not like to be poor again, Millicent?
29266Your explanation is not quite lucid, but how could I get at the truth?
29266After all, what more could I look for?
29266After giving you all the best for a tithe of its future value, where do we come in?"
29266Ah, again!--what the devil are you wanting?"
29266And you understand the relations existing between Miss Austin and me?
29266And you''ll kindly tell us, miss, you saw him again?"
29266Any particular reason why you should n''t start in to- day?
29266Anything strike you yet?"
29266Anything the matter with filling it up with me?"
29266Are my sympathies needed, Halliday-- any of my new friends over yonder dead?"
29266Are you figuring we brought you here to admire the scenery?"
29266Are you happy with him out there?
29266Are you pleading his cause, Halliday?
29266Are you still certain you can get the work done before the winter''s through?"
29266Are you sure it was n''t a wind- blown log?"
29266As a favor, would you hire your chopping gang to me for a few days?
29266As soon as the river falls, we''ll run off the water, measure up the flooded land, and pay you current price?
29266Black''s outer appearance suggested a degree of prosperity, but his face was anxious as he said,"I guess you''re surprised to see me?"
29266Bransome, as if glad to change the subject, asked:"Say, after you had fired the fuse what did you waste precious seconds looking for?
29266But a last favor-- you will not tell Harry where I have gone until I am safely on my way to England?"
29266But how could any woman compare him with you?"
29266But how do you know you are not repeating the same mistake?
29266But say, what''s the matter with your respected chief?
29266But see here, what made you turn a two- hundred- foot red fir loose among them?"
29266But we like straight talking-- what if the dykes keep on bursting?"
29266But what do you think of our latest acquisition?"
29266But why ca n''t you be honest and own that the display we make is part of your programme?
29266But why do you ask?"
29266But you''ll come back sure, and not lose any of them drills?"
29266But, naturally, you will not care to hear about this?"
29266By the way, partner, you helped your boss to pull me out, did n''t you?
29266Ca n''t you believe your ears?"
29266Ca n''t you really give me anything easier?"
29266Ca n''t you see the river will tear all this part of the dyke away unless we equalize the pressure on both sides of it?
29266Ca n''t you strike nothing better down to the cities?"
29266Ca n''t you tell me where Mr. Forsyth lives?"
29266Ca n''t you think of anything that might be done?"
29266Call it a deal-- and, to change the subject, where''s the man you sent up to worry Thurston?"
29266Can we not go around?"
29266Can you hold up a minute while I''tend to the horse?"
29266Can you not enlighten me?"
29266Can you not take my answer without the reasons?"
29266Catch on to the idee?"
29266Could n''t you get him to stay to dinner and talk over the way they''ve invested your legacy?"
29266Curious kind of creature, is n''t he?"
29266Did I mention that one of the party was a girl?"
29266Did I not say that I am one of Mr. Thurston''s oldest friends?
29266Did n''t write before because----""What is it?
29266Did you ask me here that your relatives might poison me, Savine?''"
29266Did you consider her happy when you saw her in Canada?"
29266Did you find that the amount I mentioned would cover the wages through the winter?"
29266Did you hear that he put every dollar he''d made in Canada into the scheme?
29266Did you know the opposition wanted to buy Geoffrey over, paying him two dollars for every one he could have made out of your father?"
29266Did you send a man down to keep watch to- night?"
29266Did you suppose I could do nothing?
29266Didst see Black Jim slip out this way, or hear a scream a laal while gone by?"
29266Do n''t know of any?
29266Do you bring bad news?
29266Do you get no English papers?"
29266Do you know all that man is doing for you?
29266Do you know how much I owe half the stores in this city, Harry?"
29266Do you remember your last bold prediction?"
29266Do you think the rest of the boys have heard us, Tom?"
29266Do you want two?"
29266Does that influence you?"
29266Enjoyed yourself, eh?"
29266For instance, would you let me know what you think of these specifications?"
29266For instance?"
29266Geoffrey rising to the occasion, said:"Did you ever hear the story of the first contract I undertook in British Columbia, sir?
29266Gray?"
29266Has he been stealing something?"
29266Has something upset your usually pacific temper?"
29266Have I not heaped injury upon you?"
29266Have more of your dams burst, up yonder?
29266Have some of your titled relatives in the old country left you a fortune?"
29266Have you any cider in your wagon?"
29266Have you any more such dutiful things to say?"
29266Have you got a pencil?"
29266Have you had the ponies long?"
29266Have you no further ambition, and do you like it?"
29266Have you not failed in one or two of your efforts?"
29266He did not answer until his wife said:"Did n''t you hear Mrs. Leslie''s question, Charley?
29266He left you?"
29266He said he was coming, did he not?"
29266He stared down at the river for several minutes before he asked:"Have you any reason to believe that Helen reciprocates the attachment?"
29266He was a leal, hard man, and what was a light woman''s greediness to him?"
29266Heavens, what prompted me to drivel in that style?"
29266Helen answered:"I am sorry it is so-- but why should I pain you?
29266Helen asked but one question,"You risked your life to tell him this?"
29266How could I help you to chase wild cattle?
29266How could I hope to win you-- as it were for the asking-- easily?
29266How could I resent anything you might either say or do?
29266How did you address your letter?"
29266How do you know I have n''t a pistol in my pocket, if it was any use turning ugly?"
29266How does the whole thing strike you?"
29266How far would anyone count dollars in comparison with Miss Savine?
29266How have you discharged yours to me?"
29266How is it you have n''t come over to see us yet?"
29266How long have you made head against your inherited failings?"
29266How much are you asking, no cure no pay, I finding tools and material?
29266How much did the extra work cost you?"
29266How should I face your father if anything unfortunate happened?"
29266However, to change the subject, is it fair to hold any man responsible for his ancestors''shortcomings?
29266I could afford to be decent?
29266I could also give him instructions without the authority of a board meeting, see?
29266I feel almost frightened sometimes lest he will force me to yield against my will, but you know that would be a wrong to him-- and what can I do?"
29266I have never spoken of these things to anyone before, and though it has comforted me, you wo n''t remind me-- will you?"
29266I hope the dose was not particularly nasty?"
29266I presume you do not mean a real one, and are speaking figuratively?"
29266I presume you have a draughtsman?"
29266I suppose it''s one effect of living in London?"
29266I suppose you have n''t heard from him since he went to Canada?"
29266I''m not fond of being left out in the rain with the losing side, either, see?
29266I----"Mrs. Savine, leaning forward, took her niece''s hands in her own, saying gravely,"Are you certain it is quite impossible?"
29266If I am abrupt you will forgive me, but will you listen a few moments, and then answer me a question?"
29266If you ca n''t hold up that river, where are we going to be?
29266In reality you finished with Geoffrey when he decided to emigrate instead of selling the mine, did n''t you?"
29266Is it the hot weather, or are you troubled about the conference to- night?"
29266Is it the same promise as before?"
29266Is n''t he good enough for you?"
29266Is n''t that so, gentlemen?
29266Is n''t this a beautiful view?
29266Is that fellow yonder coming?"
29266Is the other difference between us too great-- the distance dividing the man you gave the dollar to from the daughter of Julius Savine?"
29266Is there any sign of the dog- cart yet?
29266Is there no limit to the price I must pay for my folly?
29266Is there nobody in this settlement with courage enough to help me?"
29266Is there nothing I can say that will prevent you?"
29266Is what I hope for quite impossible?"
29266It is characteristic of you, Geoffrey, to play out a losing game, but, with one''s future at stake, is it wise?"
29266It was good soil and maples I went up to see, and how the---- can anybody raise crops off the big stones thou sold me?
29266It''s practically the whole of the first dole your skinflint trustee made you, is n''t it?"
29266It''s rather more than you bargained for, but will you stand by me, Tom?"
29266Leslie?"
29266Leslie?"
29266Leslie?"
29266Looking for work, perhaps?"
29266Looking up with a twinkle in his eye, he asked:"Have you been acquiring riches latterly?
29266Made the best bargain for your time I could, but I did n''t buy you up bones and body-- see?"
29266May I ask where you got the ideas?"
29266May I ask your names?"
29266May I tell it to your father, Miss Savine?"
29266May I wish you all prosperity in your career?"
29266May we ask accordingly how it came into your possession?"
29266Might I recommend a brandy- and- soda, one of those Cubanos, and confidence?
29266Might I suggest socketed timbers?
29266Millicent glanced at him sideways, and, as if anxious to change the subject, asked:"Is it the Orchard Valley you are endeavoring to reclaim?
29266Millicent, you, at least, are not a coward-- dare you give it me?"
29266Must the weak always be trampled out of existence?"
29266Need I explain further?"
29266No doubt you have seen her, and, like all the rest, admire her?"
29266Not feeling spry this morning, or is it hot water you''re waiting for?"
29266Not found that galena yet?
29266Now you have got them, is n''t it slightly unfair to blame me because you were willing to earn them?"
29266Now, I presume, she has pledged herself to you?"
29266Now, suppose we made you a fair offer, would you join us?"
29266Now-- and I want a straight answer-- why did you leave the Old Country?"
29266Of course, he would take the stereotyped view that it was all my fault-- that is to say, that I had discarded Geoffrey?"
29266Savine, who had been abstractedly watching the mad rush of the stream, looked up as he inquired:"What is the condition?
29266Savine?"
29266Savine?"
29266Say, has the trestle caved in, or what in the name of thunder is holding us up?"
29266See here, Geoffrey, I feel you have had bad trouble; is n''t it a little mean not to tell me?
29266See what he''s after?
29266Shall I get down and bring you some water, Millicent?
29266She leaves shortly, does the not?
29266She paused a second, and, with an assumed carelessness, added,"is n''t it useless to forecast the future?"
29266She rose, facing the speaker with an almost breathless"How dare you?
29266So in my distress I must stoop to ask you, for his sake, what I can do?"
29266Still accidents of that description must be fairly common where the mountain roads are bad?"
29266Still, I suppose you must have the money, Harry?"
29266Still, I would ask again, are these all your reasons?
29266Still, though I am painfully conscious of many possible reasons, may I venture to ask why it is impossible, Miss Savine?"
29266Such regrets are, however, generally useless, are they not?
29266That sounds like presumption, does n''t it?
29266That would stop half the work in camp?
29266That''s the crank who wanted to run your lake down, is n''t he?
29266The cold- blooded brute''s in the maintenance gang?"
29266The first question is, what kin you do?"
29266The main thing we wish to discover is, are you willing to consider an offer of the position?"
29266The only worry is, can we depend upon the fellow I laid the odds with?"
29266Then he looked straight at Leslie, and there was a moment''s silence before he asked,"How much does Mrs. Leslie know about your business?"
29266Then when you''re cleaned out where''ll I be?
29266Then, raising her head, she answered:"Have I not told you so?
29266There will be only time to catch the Allan boat, you say, and once the train leaves this station nobody could overtake me?"
29266Thurston?"
29266Thurston?"
29266Thurston?"
29266Thurston?"
29266Thurston?"
29266To look the other way when the rich man winks, and stand by seeing nothing while he ruins poor settlers''hard- won holdings?
29266Turning to Leslie he asked:"But are you struck dumb that you let the woman speak?
29266Very interesting place, is n''t it, Mr. Thurston?
29266Was that one of the former owners?
29266We do not think over here quite as you do in England, and if we did, are you not a Thurston of Crosbie?
29266Went his own way in spite of me-- he is my kinsman, what should I expect of him?
29266What I say sounds very selfish, does n''t it-- but you will come?"
29266What I wished for might n''t follow then?
29266What are either worth to me when the one thing I would sell my life for is, you have told me, not to be attained?"
29266What are you after now?
29266What are you doing over here, Geoffrey?"
29266What can I tempt my father with for supper?"
29266What carpenters made it?"
29266What do you think?"
29266What for?
29266What kind of a stiff do you call yourself?
29266What on earth could my kinsman have been thinking of when he forced it upon me of all men?"
29266What''s the matter with turning his contract up and going over to fill oat bags for me?"
29266What''s the matter with you?
29266What''s the use of raising hay and potatoes for the river to wash away?
29266When are you going to stop it, Leslie?"
29266When he''s had two crops ruined, a man begins to get uneasy about the third one-- see?"
29266When one gets more than his due share of this world''s good things, he must generally pay for it-- see?
29266When will you men learn that a woman''s discretion is at least equal to your own?"
29266Where''s Mattawa Tom?"
29266Where''s my wife?"
29266Wherein lies the bravery?
29266Which of the operations should I undertake first?"
29266While, with curiosity excited, Millicent listened, a companion broke in:"Where''s Mr. Leslie?
29266Who and what is she?"
29266Who is Coralie?"
29266Why did he do so?"
29266Why did n''t you sell them then?"
29266Why do n''t you British dukes stop right back in your own country where folks touch their hats to you?
29266Why do you stand there?
29266Will you advance me a dollar, on account of wages, so that I can discharge a debt to the storekeeper?"
29266Will you listen to what I have to say?"
29266Will you not tell me frankly what you fear?"
29266Will you not tell me?"
29266Will you receive Mrs. Leslie until I have seen her and arranged for her return?
29266With a flash in her eyes, she added:"How dare you once offer what you did to a woman you had no trust in?"
29266With assumed indifference in her voice Millicent asked:"What kind of people were they?"
29266Wo n''t you let me drive you?"
29266Would that make any difference?
29266Would you care to inspect it and carry this basket for me?"
29266Would you, as a favor to me, persuade him to return home with you?"
29266Yes?
29266Yes?
29266You are not going away?"
29266You are sure she will come to- night?"
29266You ca n''t have a great many dollars left either-- see?"
29266You can find happiness in the hard life?"
29266You feel quite certain you can do it?"
29266You have been here a week, have n''t you?
29266You heard of the financial disaster which overtook us?
29266You really looked so-- and how was I to know?"
29266You remember, the last time we met, suggesting that I was fortunate in having no enemies among the mountains?"
29266You said you could blow a channel through the rocks that hold up the outlet, did n''t you?"
29266You saw the outfit he came in with?
29266You say that, if you go deeper, your firm might still wind up just solvent; then why not abandon the apparently hopeless project, and withdraw?
29266You see that pattern?
29266You were going to Mr. Thurston''s camp?"
29266You will agree with them, will you not?"
29266You will help me?"
29266You will write to me when you have settled your plans?"
29266You''re getting tired-- no?
29266Young man, will you kindly get us a railroad schedule?"
29266Your husband treats you ill?"
29266he asked impatiently, adding somewhat awkwardly,"Did Mrs. Leslie explain why she wanted to see me so particularly?"
29266he asked, and Shackleby stroked his mustache meditatively before he made answer:"Do n''t you think that would be foolish?
29266said the foreman, returning; and Geoffrey asked:"How did it happen?"
29266who is the stranger?"
18182''Ave ye taken the hoath of hallegiance, sir?
18182A message to me?
18182A nunnery?
18182Afraid?
18182After communion?
18182Ah?
18182Am I a prisoner?
18182Am I not grown tall?
18182Am I to be shot? 18182 Am I to be shot?"
18182An the French reward us not well for this winter''s work, that little maid may open a door back to England; eh, kinsman?
18182An your fine gentlemen grow rich that way, why may n''t I?
18182And I suppose you will be telling me there are no Indians up there among the rafters?
18182And how comes Your Excellency to be out so late with ten men?
18182And how he risked his life to save an Indian girl''s life?
18182And now,said he, hastening through the bush,"as no one took fright at all that firing, what''s to hinder examining the ship?"
18182And the end?
18182And the marines?
18182And the officers?
18182And what are you going to do?
18182And what does Mistress Hortense say?
18182And what might this young man want?
18182And what might you want, stealing up like a thief in the night?
18182And what,he demanded,"what doth a little cavalier in a Puritan hotbed?"
18182And who is that?
18182And who is this?
18182And who would find a husband for a portionless bride?
18182And your French mind?
18182And-- and-- all the officers were there on the Sabbath?
18182Anything else?
18182Are they gone?
18182Are you jealous of anything so small?
18182Are you son o''the Stanhope that fought on the king''s side?
18182Are you sure there''s nothing?
18182As long as she gets it, what does it matter who takes it?
18182Aye, and as I have some rare furs for them both, why not let us bear the news to them ourselves?
18182Back?
18182Be_ he_ fairer than the day Or the_ June- field coils of hay_; If_ he_ be not so to me, What care I how_ fine_ he be?
18182Ben,said he, never taking his glance from the young fellow''s face,"what will you give me if I guide you to your father this afternoon?
18182But I sent a message to the fort----"Not to be bitten by the same dog twice-- I thought that meant to keep away?
18182But about these English prisoners, of whom La Chesnaye sent word from Isle Percée?
18182But how was Mistress Hortense to know that?
18182But where are their foot- marks?
18182But who is this, Jack?
18182But, Rebecca----"Will you come for Hortense''s sake?
18182But--Rebecca was blushing furiously,"but-- I mean-- was there a chaplain?
18182Ca n''t you break through the thongs and get a hand free?
18182Can you guess who that sailor- lad is, Rebecca?
18182Can-- I ever-- ever repay you-- Hortense?
18182Captain Gillam''s boat?
18182Confess what? 18182 Cornered?
18182D''ye mind how we got away from the Iroquois, Chouart?
18182Did he? 18182 Did the cub''s hangdog of a father not offer a thousand pounds for my head on the end of a pikestaff?"
18182Did the north not agree with Sieur Radisson?
18182Did you see her oft, Ramsay?
18182Did you see_ her_?
18182Do n''t you understand? 18182 Do the Scriptures lie, Ramsay Stanhope?
18182Do we sail in that case?
18182Do you go with me or no?
18182Do you mean that Jack Battle has married a squaw?
18182Do you mean the court, sir?
18182Do you mean this little gentleman?
18182Do you mind, Chouart,he asked,"how the padre wanted to put poison in the meat, and the Dutchman would n''t let him?
18182Does the cub think to cower me with his threats?
18182Doth Boston air bring red so quick to all faces?
18182Doth looking hurt yon star?
18182Eh, nephew,exclaims Radisson sharply,"how are the cannon?"
18182Face what?
18182Faith, mademoiselle,said I ruefully,"an she may n''t play war on the commons, what may she play?"
18182Fit crossing?
18182Forever?
18182Furs?
18182Gad''s life, ca n''t you see?
18182Gentlemen,says M. Radisson, with the fires agleam in his deep- set eyes,"am I to understand that every one here is for going forward at any risk?"
18182Godefroy,I asked,"how long will this last?"
18182Gone?
18182Has one run away from the island against orders?
18182Hath the little Puritan helped to get them married right?
18182Have I put bread in thy mouth, Ramsay Stanhope, that thou shouldst turn traitor? 18182 Have we not wrestled mightily for signs and wonders?"
18182Have you lost a man, Ben?
18182Have you not heard, Jack?
18182Have you seen Hortense?
18182Have you seen her?
18182He gives''em that saucy brat, does he? 18182 He hath taken the oath?"
18182Hortense, should an oath to the dead bind the living?
18182Hortense, then it was you that I saw at the fire with the others?
18182Hortense, who sent Le Borgne and M. Picot to save me from the wolves?
18182Hortense-- Hortense-- how am I to keep a promise?
18182How about that Canary taken from the foreign ship? 18182 How can I handle all the English of both forts unless I win some of them for friends?"
18182How close can your gunners hit, Ben?
18182How did you come here?
18182How do you know, Ramsay?
18182How goes the keeping of accounts, Ramsay?
18182How is she called?
18182How long ago was that, Colonel Blood?
18182How long do you intend to squat here anchored to an ice- pan?
18182How many beaver- skins?
18182How many have you?
18182How shall we bring up the matter of Hortense?
18182How?
18182I hear you are fur trading, Ramsay?
18182I promised to treat you as I would a sister-- but what-- Hortense?
18182If I could only take her place----"Take her place, Rebecca?
18182If killing''s no murder, whose turn comes next?
18182If there are no Indians, how much farther do we go, sir?
18182In the name o''the fiends, when did you arrive, man?
18182Is Hortense-- so dear?
18182Is M. Radisson back?
18182Is anything there? 18182 Is anything there?"
18182Is he a spy?
18182Is it a wager?
18182Is not this the place?
18182Is not yon Le Borgne?
18182Is the fire not big enough?
18182It is not-- no-- it is not Jack?
18182It was you who pleaded for my life in the cave below my feet?
18182Jack,I asked,"where is Hortense?"
18182Jack,I warned, thinking of Ben Gillam''s craft rigged with sails of as many colours as Joseph''s coat,"Jack-- is it a pirate- ship?"
18182La Chesnaye has told you?
18182La Chesnaye''s son----"Have the ships a good cargo? 18182 Le Borgne, was any one here with you?"
18182Le Borgne, you rascal, is this a way to treat your friends?
18182Le Borgne,I ask,"was any one here?"
18182Let''s see?
18182Look, you rantipole-- who is that?
18182Love-- what?
18182Maid of honour to the lonely queen?
18182Man alive, why do n''t you carve a way?
18182Married in the north? 18182 Married?"
18182Master Stanhope?
18182May I ask, sir, how you know the pirate signals?
18182May I examine them, Rebecca?
18182Mizza snared rabbits and I stole back my musket when we ran away and did some shooting long as powder lasted----"And then?
18182Must I spell it out? 18182 Must a woman ever be a cat''s- paw to man''s ambitions?"
18182Mutinied? 18182 No one here, lad?"
18182No-- no,says the dream- face, with the love that divines without speech,"do you not understand?
18182No; but you''ll ask her?
18182No?
18182Now tell me, whose is she, and what value do you set on her?
18182Now what in the Old Nick does he mean by that?
18182Now, where are your wits, lad? 18182 Oh, I get work enough on the docks to pay for Mizza''s lessons--""Lessons?"
18182Oh, lordy,taunts an English prisoner out on parole one day,"any angels from kingdom come that you Frenchies keep meek as lambs?"
18182Oh,she cried,"were you not asleep?
18182Oh?
18182Perhaps you remember a New Amsterdam gentleman and a page boy leaving Boston on the Prince Rupert?
18182Promise-- and when did promise o''yours hold good, Pierre Radisson?
18182Ramsay Stanhope,begins my uncle sourly,"what do you with uncropped hair and the foolish trappings of vanity?"
18182Ramsay,inquired Jack quizzically,"do you happen to have heard who has the keys?"
18182Ramsay,said M. Radisson, speaking very low and tense,"As you hope to live and without a lie, what-- does-- this-- mean?"
18182Ramsay,she asked with a sudden look straight through my eyes,"what did he make you promise when-- when-- he was dying?"
18182Ramsay?
18182Ramsay?
18182Ramsay?
18182Rebecca, Madame Radisson has told you how Jack was left to be tortured by the Indians?
18182Rebecca,I demanded,"what do you mean?"
18182Rebecca,I whispered, leaning across the bench,"you are big enough to have a-- what?
18182Rebecca-- what is it?
18182Right?
18182Royalist?
18182Services?
18182Shall I lend you a trumpet, La Chesnaye, or-- or a fife?
18182Sir,said I,"have you nothing more to say?
18182Sir?
18182Sir?
18182Sir?
18182Spanish adventurer-- Your Excellency? 18182 Take it to her?"
18182Thanks,says Ben, twirling his mustaches till they were nigh jerked out,"but how long would they stay?"
18182The poor thing kept telling me and telling me to trust you till I--"Till you what, Hortense?
18182The ship would be of some value; but why take the men prisoners? 18182 The white- man is Le Borgne''s friend,"assured Groseillers,"but who are these?"
18182The wolves got Godefroy,I would reason,"how did n''t they get me?
18182Then you''ll not need Rebecca for six months or so?
18182They do say as''ow it is for love of Mary Kirke and not the English--"Your renegade of a French-- who?
18182Think?
18182To sail in, Jack Battle?
18182Was it not enough that thou wert utterly bound in iniquity without persecuting the Lord''s anointed?
18182Was it?
18182Was that the message he gave you? 18182 Well?"
18182Well?
18182Were the courtiers about?
18182Were those your ships?
18182Were you so mighty proud the other night that you could not come to see a humble ward of the court?
18182What I done about a mate?
18182What a deuce?
18182What are king- killers?
18182What are king- killers?
18182What are those, Rebecca?
18182What are you doing back there, La Chesnaye?
18182What d''ye lack? 18182 What did he give for the pelts, Godefroy?"
18182What did you put in the meat, Pierre?
18182What do you make of it, Godefroy?
18182What do you think we should do, sir?
18182What do you want in return?
18182What does Captain Radisson advise?
18182What does he say, Godefroy?
18182What does he say, Godefroy?
18182What else was there to do, Hortense? 18182 What for, Ben?"
18182What has that to do with Mistress Hortense?
18182What have you come for?
18182What have you under your arm?
18182What is he saying to them now?
18182What you-- come for?
18182What''s my boy doing?
18182What''s that?
18182What''s the matter with your hand? 18182 What, Hillary?
18182What-- what else was there to do?
18182What?
18182What?
18182What?
18182What?
18182When did you feel him getting away from you?
18182When-- when-- did you come?
18182Where did you come from?
18182Where is Balaam?
18182Where is Master Ben?
18182Where is Mistress Hortense?
18182Where is a man to take cover, an the buccaneers began shooting from the bush behind?
18182Where is my master?
18182Where to, Jack?
18182White- man-- promise-- no-- hurt-- good Indian?
18182Who did that? 18182 Who is that, Godefroy?"
18182Who must fight them all?
18182Who paid you to poison Hortense? 18182 Who said''slave''?"
18182Who sent Le Borgne for us in the storm, Hortense?
18182Who shoot what?
18182Who''s there?
18182Who''s who when he''s drunk? 18182 Who-- what is this?"
18182Who?
18182Who?
18182Who?
18182Who?
18182Whom do you make them out to be, Ramsay?
18182Why did n''t you go round to her box, the way M. Radisson did to the king''s?
18182Why did n''t you sell her to some Spanish adventurer before you came here?
18182Why do n''t you take it to her, Jack?
18182Why have n''t you?
18182Why not?
18182Why, when a king, who is too busy to sign death- reprieves, may spend the night hunting a single moth from room to room of the palace? 18182 Why-- why did you promise that?"
18182Why-- why-- didn''t you give us warning?
18182Why?
18182Why?
18182Will you do me the honour to satisfy yourself that wound is genuine?
18182Will you petition the king direct?
18182Would another bridesmaid do?
18182Yes?
18182You are not afraid?
18182You mean to send her to Mary Kirke?
18182You think-- it''s-- it''s-- all right?
18182You''ll not take the odds? 18182 Your fine gallants have so many fine speeches----""Have you been here long?"
18182Your wife? 18182 _ Her_?"
18182''Tis not your girl- page?
18182****** And had I once thought that Eli Kirke''s fanatic faith painted too lurid a hell?
18182A galleon, did you say, tall and slim?
18182A night- watchman shuffled along with swinging lantern, calling out:"What ho?
18182A_ hard_ master, you say?
18182Am I to be shot?"
18182An a man wins, who a devil gives a rush for the winnings?
18182An you listen to Deliverance Dobbins''s lies, what hinders any lying wench sending good men to the scaffold?"
18182And again I ask why not, when the law of their life was to kill or to be killed?
18182And did I know of any secret league between Captain Zachariah Gillam and Mr. Stocking to trade without commission?
18182And now she must marry the boy----""Why?"
18182And was not that Jack Battle greeting her outside in the dark?
18182And what do you think M. Radisson said as he wiped the sweat from his brow?
18182And what do you think that black- eyed jade asks when I present the furs and tell of our captured Frenchmen?
18182And what words, think you, came quick on top of his first sharp outcry?
18182And-- and was not Mistress Hortense the only woman----?"
18182Are n''t you and me to be shipped on a raft for the English fort at the foot o''the bay?"
18182Are the timbers of your room sound?"
18182Beaten?
18182Before I gained strength to escape, would M. Radisson have left for Quebec?
18182Ben took us to the north with Le Borgne for interpreter----""Does Ben know you are here?"
18182But how could one forage for food with a right arm in bands and a left unsteady as aim of a girl?
18182But what was she saying in her sleep?
18182But what was that sound?
18182But where a''devil is that Indian?"
18182But whither had he gone that he had not come back to us?
18182But why had he flung his sword down at the moment of victory?
18182Can you guess who this is?"
18182Did a fellow''s tales slip an oath or two?
18182Did a fish rise?
18182Did it rise from the ground in the woods, or from a far memory of children throwing a bully into the sea?
18182Did that explain why my life had been three times spared?
18182Did they laugh at this fellow, the most helpless of all things, setting out to conquer all things?
18182Did voices grow loud in the mess- room?
18182Did you sink her or sell her?
18182Do you know the risk?"
18182Do you know what it means?
18182Do you mind the copy- heads on the writing- books?
18182Do you not hear the drunken revel?
18182Do you wonder that our hearts stopped almost as suddenly as the paddles?
18182Does Your High Mightiness give place to a merchant''s son?
18182Does it hurt?"
18182Eh, lad, afraid to go?"
18182Face what?"
18182For had not the blind forces brought Hortense to me, and me to Hortense?
18182Good lack, what will Sir John say?"
18182Had I not noticed the mole on the French doctor''s cheek?
18182Had I run in a circle and come again on M. Radisson''s fire?
18182Had he been sent for me?
18182Had not Eli Kirke planned trading in the north with Mr. Stocking?
18182Had spring come?
18182Had you a preacher?
18182Has he seen the Company?"
18182He would give a thousand pounds for my head-- would he?
18182How are some men born to draw all others as the sea draws the streams?
18182How came I to be lying in Boston Town?
18182How could I go to M. de Radisson and abandon Hortense?
18182How could I stay with M. Picot and desert M. de Radisson?
18182How could they get a minister a thousand leagues away from any church?
18182How did I get away?
18182How did he know that?
18182How had he made the savages come to him?
18182How long had I lain in the cave?
18182How many days have you been here?"
18182How much better could we have done for her?"
18182I ask you in return why you like the spire of a cathedral pointing up instead of down; or why the muses lift souls heavenward?
18182I had: what of it?
18182I thought of appealing to the mercy of the judges; but what mercy had Eli Kirke received at the hands of royalists that he should be merciful to them?
18182If once the great door were unlocked, who could tell what black arts a sorcerer might use?
18182If this was the beginning, what was the end?
18182In the name o''the fiends-- where from?"
18182Is Captain Gillam stealing the Company''s furs for Ben?"
18182Lordy,"laughs Jack,"s''pose I do n''t know what a foot on a neck feels like?
18182Mary?"
18182May the angel of forgiveness spread a broader mantle across our blunders than our sins, but could I have said worse?
18182Might I not speak to the French doctor through the bars of his window?
18182My uncle''s welcome was more than a vain lad could stomach; and what youth of his first teens hath not a vanity hidden about him somewhere?
18182Nine lives for each man, did you say?"
18182No?
18182Not a- bed yet, child?
18182Now, Rebecca, will you sit down till I tell you all about it?"
18182Oh, that is the reason you never came----""And that is the reason you have hidden from me all the year and never sent me word?"
18182Or make pale my cheeks with care''Cause_ Rebecca''s_ rosier are?"
18182PART I CHAPTER I WHAT ARE KING- KILLERS?
18182Ramsay, why did she love that north land where the wicked Frenchman took her?"
18182Restore her to what?
18182Shaping his hands to a trumpet, he shouted,"How are you, there?"
18182Should I lie like a stranded hull while he perished?
18182Should I tell him of the adventure?
18182Spreading over the face of the New World, making the desert to bloom and the waste places fruitful gardens?
18182Tell me that?"
18182That was the child''s way of asking a very old question-- Was Man the sport of the elements, the plaything of all the cruel, blind gods of chance?
18182The only doubt is how many of those pirates are there who attacked you in the woods?"
18182Then Hortense was no dream, and love was no phantom, and God-- was what?
18182Then a voice which only speaks when love speaks through the voice was saying,"Do you remember your dreams?"
18182Then the Dutchman wanted to murder them all in their sleep, and the padre would n''t let him?"
18182Then turning to me with her face aflame:"I am-- I am-- oh-- why ca n''t you understand?"
18182Think you M. Picot burns incense to the serpent in his jars for the healing of mankind?"
18182This was what the Indian was saying as Godefroy muttered it over to me:"Were the Indians fools and dogs to throw away two fish for the sake of one?
18182Those guns in the bastions though-- think you those cannon are not pushed too far through the windows to be slued round quickly?"
18182Up yet?
18182Was I dreaming, or were there voices, English voices, talking about me?
18182Was I not the only royalist in the house?
18182Was M. Radisson a myth?
18182Was he not here among them?
18182Was it flood of memory or a sick man''s dream?
18182Was that the only reason?"
18182Was the northland a dream?
18182Was the water suddenly muddied?
18182Waters-- did I say?
18182Were my assailants, then, Hudson''s Bay Company men come up from the south end of James Bay?
18182Were the pirates some agents of my uncle?
18182What a pretty mischief have you been working?
18182What ado was this in Boston, where men were only hunters of souls and chasers of devils?
18182What are King- Killers?
18182What could I do?
18182What d''ye lack?
18182What d''ye please to lack, good sirs?
18182What does Osmond''s daughter say?"
18182What else was there for us to do?"
18182What folly is this-- dear, kind Rebecca?
18182What gain to keep up pretence longer?
18182What had she done that she ought not to have done?
18182What ho?"
18182What next?"
18182What was she trying to say with her dark hints and overnice scruples of a Puritan conscience?
18182What was this fellow doing with a torch?
18182What will become of her?"
18182What will my father have to say?"
18182What- a- deuce?
18182When they reached the shambles, know you what they did?
18182When we''ve taken him, lads, who-- think you-- dare complain?"
18182Where are the New Englanders?"
18182Where are the tribes with whom Godefroy and Jack Battle and I wandered in nomadic life over the northern wastes?
18182Where are we, Le Borgne?"
18182Where had I heard it before?
18182Where is that vagabond Cree?
18182Where is your colour of a moment ago?"
18182Where was the brain?
18182Where, think you, may we best secure him?
18182Which do you mean?"
18182While we swung at anchorman, what d''y''think happened?
18182Who are her people?"
18182Who had turned informer on my uncle?
18182Who is Hortense?"
18182Who was the third partner?
18182Who were these night- watchers?
18182Why did n''t I join the beaver trade of Hudson Bay?
18182Why do n''t you join the beaver trade, Ramsay?"
18182Why do you ask questions?
18182Why must you and Madame Radisson and Lady Kirke all push me here?"
18182Why not, indeed?
18182Why not?
18182Why should he have, when his only standard of right is conquest?
18182Why should it not be, when his only god is victory?
18182Why would he put her in a house of correction?
18182Why, when a duchess must take me every morning to a milliner''s shop, where she meets her lover, who is a rope- walker?
18182Why, when ladies of the court dress in men''s clothes to run the streets with the Scowerers?
18182Why, when our sailors starve unpaid and gold enough lies on the basset- table of a Sunday night to feed the army?
18182Why-- who-- who married him, Ramsay?"
18182Why-- why-- did you promise?"
18182Why----?"
18182Will i Do It?
18182Will you not come?"
18182Would suspicion fall on me?
18182Would''t be any better to send you to the rope than Hortense?
18182You ask what that look was?
18182You kept your promise, and a ward of the crown must marry whom the king names--""Marry?"
18182any one listening?"
18182called one, reining his horse to its haunches,"did that snivelling knave pass this way?"
18182cries Ben,"but where a deuce are all your land forces and marines and jack- tars and forty thousand officers?"
18182he exclaimed,"do fur- traders keep royalty awaiting?"
18182is a slaughter better than a game?
18182mocks Hortense,"what else is there to do?"
18182returns Phipps,"how many beaver- skins are there in store?"
18182says Hortense,"what else?
18182says Hortense,"why do I hate this life?
18182she cried impetuously,"I hate this life-- why did you all send me to it?"
18182who married you?"
16289''Ow much?
16289A board shack looks rotten in the woods?
16289Ah, must you go?
16289Ambrose Doane?
16289And can nobody here speak Kakisa?
16289And they stand for that?
16289And when you went back for her,Colina persisted,"did n''t my mother run away north with you, against the wishes of her parents?"
16289Angleysman, you there?
16289Are n''t the Indian kids comical little souls?
16289Are n''t you a little relieved?
16289Are they coming over here?
16289Are you accusing Strange now?
16289Are you afraid of him?
16289Are you afraid? 16289 Are you against me?"
16289Are you beginning to doubt me already?
16289Are you offering it to me?
16289Are you willing to come?
16289But that need n''t prevent, eh? 16289 But who is it?"
16289But why wait?
16289But-- what should I do at the fort?
16289By whom?
16289Ca n''t you believe what you see?
16289Can I see his son then, Germain Grampierre?
16289Could it be rigged to the engine?
16289Could n''t the man be overtaken and the skin recovered?
16289Could n''t you have communicated with counsel?
16289Could you get me a horse, too?
16289Dad,said Colina suddenly,"what did you come north for in the first place, thirty years ago?"
16289Despise you? 16289 Did he-- did he_ see_ him?"
16289Did n''t she help me out of here?
16289Did she send an answer back?
16289Did you hear any talk?
16289Did you see her?
16289Discount?
16289Do n''t you recognize anything but orders?
16289Do you believe this liar? 16289 Do you know my father?"
16289Do you know the reason for this attack?
16289Do you live with them?
16289Do you mean to say he buys your grain at his own price, and sells you back the flour at his own price?
16289Do you mean to say that father is unfair?
16289Do you mean, to say that father brought this on himself?
16289Do you still mean to say that I killed one of your men?
16289Do you think the breed was justified in shooting my father?
16289Do you think you can make your child and hers into a prim miss, to sit at home and work embroidery?
16289Do you wish me to stay?
16289Do you wish to be excused?
16289Does he know I''m coming?
16289Does he sleep alone?
16289Does n''t the table look nice?
16289Eelip?
16289Flour? 16289 For God''s sake, will you tell me what I could hope to gain by stirring up the Indians?"
16289Generosity?
16289Give us a hand with these bolting frames, will you? 16289 Gone?"
16289Good men? 16289 Had n''t we better get lumber from the''Company''mill?"
16289Has Gaviller given you this order since he knew the people were hungry?
16289Has he spoken?
16289Have you a boat?
16289Have you a gun?
16289Have you anything against me?
16289Have you anything to say for yourself?
16289Have you come so far alone?
16289Have you flour?
16289Have you forgotten?
16289Have you got Ambrose Doane here?
16289Have you got a little mill?
16289Have you got a wife?
16289Have you heard?
16289He married a Cree, did n''t he?
16289Heard what?
16289Help me get this thing going, will you?
16289Hey, what''s the matter?
16289How can I ever repay her?
16289How can I help it? 16289 How can I pledge him?"
16289How can I see you again?
16289How can I?
16289How can we make a trade?
16289How can you be so hard to me?
16289How did it begin?
16289How did they come?
16289How did you know?
16289How do I know?
16289How do you know they have sent for the police?
16289How do you know?
16289How do you know?
16289How is Nesis?
16289How is that?
16289How is your father?
16289How is your father?
16289How long have you been in the north?
16289How many link- skins in the bale you made up today?
16289How many?
16289How much farther are you going?
16289How much will you charge me to grind me five hundred bushels of grain for them?
16289How old is she?
16289How she get you out, then?
16289How was I to know?
16289I am to understand that you justify the breed?
16289I ask, Ambrose Doane, will you save them from their madness? 16289 I can build a bigger house, ca n''t I?"
16289I mean,explained Colina,"will you come and tell his judges that he did not lead the Kakisas into trouble?"
16289I stop it?
16289I suppose Miss Colina has plenty of suitors?
16289I suppose you have business with him?
16289I was thinking-- human beings are sort of elastic, are n''t they? 16289 I wonder if I done the right thing?"
16289I''m your daughter, am I not?--and mother''s? 16289 If that is true, it is a wonderful brain, is n''t it?
16289If that''s what you want to call it? 16289 If you go to the camp get me my dog, will you?"
16289Is Ambrose Doane there?
16289Is anybody watching your flour?
16289Is it being yourself to act like a harum- scarum tomboy?
16289Is n''t there-- isn''t there something else I can do?
16289Is she real white?
16289Is that all right?
16289Is that all?
16289Is the evidence you have to give favorable to the prisoner or unfavorable?
16289Is there any answer?
16289Is there anything I can do for you?
16289Is there anything you want?
16289Is there work at Moultrie in the summer?
16289Is this-- good- by?
16289It has n''t turned out that way, has it?
16289It tells its own story, does n''t it?
16289It''s you, is it?
16289Look here,he said smoothly;"you know best, of course; but are n''t there times when a soldier must make his own rules?
16289Man to man I''ll not deny I ai n''t been sorry sometimes,he went on;"who ai n''t, sometimes?
16289May I explain further?
16289May I speak to you alone?
16289May n''t I-- send you something from the house?
16289Miss Gaviller, if the girl could understand you, why did she answer by signs?
16289Must I submit to be bearded in my own house by this scamp, this fire- brand, this destroyer?
16289Must the Kakisas got hunt every day?
16289Must you go?
16289Must?
16289Nesis,he asked,"do you know why Watusk is keeping me locked up here?
16289Nesis,he asked,"how will you explain being away overnight?
16289Not very original, I say; is it possible he could have read it somewhere, adding a few little touches of his own? 16289 Of what?"
16289Officer, what is the trouble outside?
16289Oh, I say,said Strange, laughing,"what did you come to Fort Enterprise for if you feel that way about us?"
16289On what charge?
16289Playing waiter, eh?
16289Presumptuous?
16289Shall we leave one of the canoes?
16289She believed in you, eh?
16289Should I tell about that?
16289Simon,he said immediately,"suppose it came to a fight, how many men do you think Gaviller could count on?"
16289Simon,said Ambrose, finally,"can you get me twenty- five good men by dark; steady men with cool heads, who will do what I tell them?"
16289Sorry?
16289Suppose I don''do it?
16289Sure,said Peter;"but was her mother a white woman?"
16289Talk to her?
16289Tell me,he said quietly,"did you do it just for fun, or had you a reason?"
16289The spirit river?
16289Throw your light on my clothes, will you?
16289To torture me? 16289 Was that so extraordinary?"
16289Was that your mouth? 16289 Was your father pleased?"
16289Wat you t''ink?
16289Watusk, for God''s sake, what do you mean to do?
16289We can pass them back and forth-- can''t we?
16289We get pay, too, for our flour burn up?
16289Well, then, did any of the Indians set it? 16289 Well, what do you want me to do?"
16289Well, you can claim the extra one, ca n''t you,snarled Ambrose,"and make an allowance if it''s found short?"
16289Well?
16289Well?
16289Well?
16289What about the Kakisas?
16289What am I going to do?
16289What are you doing on my father''s property?
16289What are you going to do?
16289What are you laughing at?
16289What are you standing here for?
16289What can I do?
16289What charge?
16289What damn foolishness is this? 16289 What did Eelip say to that?"
16289What did he say?
16289What did you come for?
16289What did you think of the place, Poly?
16289What did you want?
16289What did your father say to you?
16289What do the people say about him? 16289 What do we wait for,_ un miracle_?
16289What do you come here for?
16289What do you expect me to say to that?
16289What do you expect will happen?
16289What do you expect?
16289What do you know about conditions here?
16289What do you know about me?
16289What do you mean by saying old man Gaviller is mad at you?
16289What do you want?
16289What do you want?
16289What do you want?
16289What do you want?
16289What does this mean?
16289What does this mean?
16289What earthly reason could I have for trying to injure my benefactor?
16289What else about him?
16289What for?
16289What good tell them?
16289What happened to the men you left on guard?
16289What has this to do with a question of justice?
16289What have you got there?
16289What have you to say for yourself?
16289What is it I can do?
16289What is it?
16289What is it?
16289What is it?
16289What is it?
16289What is that?
16289What is the matter?
16289What is the situation?
16289What is the use of our bandying words?
16289What is the wound?
16289What kind of a game is this?
16289What kind of a job did they give you at Enterprise?
16289What lame man?
16289What must we do to prepare?
16289What sort of a man is Greer?
16289What the devil can I do?
16289What time is it?
16289What was it?
16289What will Gaviller do? 16289 What will a poor man do while he wait?
16289What will we do now?
16289What will you do with your family?
16289What will you do?
16289What''s happened to you?
16289What''s his name?
16289What''s that?
16289What''s the difference?
16289What''s the matter with him?
16289What''s the matter with my way of living?
16289What''s the matter with the mankiller?
16289What''s the matter with you?
16289What''s the matter, Ambrose?
16289What''s the matter?
16289What''s the matter?
16289What''s the matter?
16289What''s the use?
16289What''s the use?
16289What''s the use?
16289What?
16289When are you going to pull out for home?
16289When did the girl come?
16289When?
16289Where are the Indians camped?
16289Where are you?
16289Where did you get it?
16289Where does he sleep at the Fort?
16289Where does this river go?
16289Where is Moultrie?
16289Where is he?
16289Where is she?
16289Where is your camp?
16289Where is your dugout?
16289Where is your family?
16289Where is your outfit?
16289Where will you get it?
16289Where you get the flour?
16289Who are you?
16289Who are you?
16289Who do you live with?
16289Who is it?
16289Who is there for her?
16289Who is there?
16289Who''s coming?
16289Who''s next?
16289Whom do you mean?
16289Why did n''t you come in to see us to- day?
16289Why do n''t you eat?
16289Why do n''t you go?
16289Why do you ask?
16289Why do you want to keep it a secret?
16289Why must you tell me?
16289Why not?
16289Why not?
16289Why not?
16289Why should n''t I come here?
16289Why should they warn you?
16289Why should you be? 16289 Why you do that?"
16289Why you tak''two canoe?
16289Why?
16289Why?
16289Why?
16289Why?
16289Will you always be doubting me?
16289Will you come with me and tell the police that?
16289Will you come with me to testify for him?
16289Will you eat?
16289Will you examine?
16289Will you help me to get out?
16289Will you let them starve?
16289Will you read it?
16289Will you speak?
16289Will you submit to handcuffs or must I force you?
16289Will you-- will you eat with me?
16289With twenty thousand bushels of wheat here?''
16289Would n''t it be the best way,she murmured,"since it''s got to be anyway?"
16289Would you like to come and see my beasts?
16289You Ambrose Doane?
16289You almost out?
16289You are Ambrose Doane, I suppose?
16289You are Nesis?
16289You are quite successful in handling them?
16289You are well?
16289You did n''t think I was pretty to- day, did you,, he said with a grin,"with a week''s growth on my chin?"
16289You do good trade at Lake Miwasa?
16289You fellows have to be everything from grooms to chambermaids, do n''t you?
16289You have an engine here?
16289You have no idea who did it?
16289You have not met my father?
16289You know Ambrose Doane?
16289You know who did it?
16289You lak little Nesis, hey?
16289You t''ink I mad for cause she go wit''you?
16289You think this any good?
16289You want to know about the wheat?
16289Your father is dead?
16289Your father is well?
16289Your father-- what is the matter with him?
16289Your partner, he is well?
16289A little gorramighty?
16289After a while Colina asked:"Do you know who I am?"
16289Aloud she remarked languidly:"How about me?
16289Anyway, you dined with Mr. Gaviller, did n''t you?"
16289Are you a dog to lie down when she beat you?"
16289Are you going to wait for his orders before you act?"
16289Are you sorry you got stay with me little while?"
16289At last he said huskily:"What has happened to change you?"
16289At the worst, I do not fear any harm to any of us, except perhaps--""Father?"
16289But a voice cried defiantly:"Must we wait some more?"
16289But how can I go back and humble myself?"
16289But how could Colina relent when she beheld him arriving laden with ammunition to make war upon her?
16289But how?
16289But what are you going to do?
16289But why?"
16289But, on the whole, after all these years, how could I have done any better?
16289Ca n''t you stop until to- morrow?"
16289Can she be brought here?"
16289Can you bring me a strong knife?"
16289Colina was a woman-- and an impulsive one; it was bound to come sooner or later:"What did you come for?"
16289Colina was thinking:"What shall I do if she is afraid, and does n''t come?"
16289Could it be meant that he was to take part in a night attack on the police?
16289Could they have made such a plan?
16289Did you ever kiss her?"
16289Do I spik Angleys good, Angleysman?"
16289Do we wait for Gaviller''s heart to soften?
16289Do you believe this lie?"
16289Do you blame me for that?"
16289Do you despise me?"
16289Do you expect a jury to attach any weight to her evidence?"
16289Do you expect us to believe you?
16289Do you think the breed was justified in shooting my father?"
16289Do you think you''re another Louis Riel?"
16289Do you want fine flour or coarse?"
16289Do you want me to dress?"
16289Finally she said very low:"Angleysman, you got go to jail if you tak''me?"
16289Granting that Gordon Strange, that extraordinary character, played for high stakes, lost and paid-- was he the sole criminal?
16289Had he not baited her into losing her temper-- and insisting on his coming to dinner?
16289Hardly likely they would take him as a passenger, is it, if he had fought them so strenuously?
16289He addressed Colina,"You have evidence to give in this case?"
16289He heard Ambrose ask:"Who is that comical little guy?"
16289He heard Emslie say:"Doane looks like a decent- enough head, does n''t he?
16289He spoke in a voice of portentous softness:"Who the hell do you think you are?
16289How can I be sure?"
16289How can we do anything with them if we treat them like dirt?"
16289How could he hope to keep his manhood?
16289How could he hope to put it together by lantern light?
16289How could she turn them loose to rest and graze with enemies both in the front and the rear?
16289How could you see me?"
16289How do you explain it when times are good-- when this is known as the richest post in the north?"
16289How far will rage carry her?"
16289How is a dead man to sway passionate, living men?
16289How many men have you got?"
16289I must ask you why you have delayed until this moment?"
16289If I write a short note to Gaviller will you deliver it and bring me back an answer?"
16289If my people get more hungry what can I do?
16289If she chose to play that game let her take the consequences?
16289If that failed her, then what?
16289Is it true?
16289Is that true?"
16289It was cruelly hard to concentrate his mind on machinery while a damnable little voice in his brain persisted in asking over and over:"Where are they?
16289It was set, but who set it?
16289Lastly, did Ambrose Doane do it, or have it done?
16289May I see him for five minutes?"
16289Me?
16289Men who will not sneak up to the dance?"
16289No?
16289Now, can you imagine a man with even the rudiments of good sense persuading himself that he could make a successful Indian uprising at this date?
16289Presently he asked coolly;"What do you want me for, and who are you anyway?"
16289Quickly veiling his eyes, he asked with an innocent air:"What does Mr. Gaviller say?"
16289Reaching the dugout, Simon asked:"Where now?"
16289She all but stamped her foot as she said:"Did n''t you hear me?"
16289Simon said to the company:"Men, will you sell your wheat to Ambrose Doane at a dollar- seventy- five?"
16289Strange?"
16289The Indians''welfare more important than profits, eh?
16289The question in the air was:"What did you come for?"
16289The question is, does the Province of Athabasca control the Northwest Fur Company, or does the Company run the province?
16289The question is-- what are we going to do?"
16289The thought struck him oddly:"How could they have had warning of what was going to happen?"
16289They not lak you?
16289To Ambrose Colina said with subtle scorn meant for his ear alone:"What is it?"
16289Was he really so simple as she had decided?
16289Was it any one connected with the Company?
16289Was it her father?
16289Wat you say to t''at, hein?"
16289What are they doing?
16289What do the others say?"
16289What do you expect of the child of such a couple?"
16289What do you propose?"
16289What do you want me to do?"
16289What does he think he''s going to do with me?"
16289What does it matter whether it was in a day or a year?
16289What does your father say?"
16289What if he, Ambrose, should be chosen to carry it out?
16289What if it does break us?
16289What is a skin to us?
16289What is he catch you think?
16289What is the matter?"
16289What matter how dearly Colina loved him if he had to go to jail?
16289What more can I say?
16289What should I have done?
16289What should he say?"
16289What should we do?"
16289What sort of conditions were they up there that made it possible for him to engineer his unique schemes of villainy?
16289What the devil are we going to do?"
16289What was between them?
16289What was he to do hut hold her close?
16289What was the matter with the bull?"
16289What will I do-- starve, and see my children starve?
16289What will they do to you?"
16289What would you?
16289What you think, is that true talk, Angleysman?"
16289What you want wit''Colina Gaviller?
16289What''s the matter with you that you ca n''t keep them better than that?
16289What''s the matter with you these past ten days, anyway?
16289When Ambrose and Simon got outside the teepee Simon asked the same question:"Where_ will_ you get it?"
16289When Colina returned she said immediately:"Ambrose, can you stay at Fort Enterprise a little while longer?"
16289Where I get warm clothes for the winter and meat and sugar and powder for my gun?
16289Where could Watusk have learned his tactics?
16289Where is your leader?
16289Who is she?"
16289Who knows?
16289Who wants to speak?"
16289Why ca n''t the question of me be dropped between you and your father?"
16289Why ca n''t you leave me alone?"
16289Why fourth?
16289Why he do everything?
16289Why he put down the price of grain?
16289Why should they?
16289Why should we wait till he get well?
16289Will we wait and let him?"
16289Will you come up to- morrow and let me take you about?"
16289Will you help us break our chains?
16289With a great effort he commanded his temper,"What do you see yourself in your rides about the settlement?"
16289Wo n''t that do?"
16289You do n''t want to eat in a jail, do you?"
16289_ Buy our grain_?"
16289he cried indignantly,"have you nothing to say?
16289they say, she is_ miwasan_--what you say, beauty?
14261A big man, kind of solid and homely?
14261A capable man?
14261A difficulty?
14261A man?
14261A woman of that kind would know what she was about?
14261All this is very tawdry, is n''t it?
14261Alton?
14261An axe- cut? 14261 And Hallam hired you to murder me?"
14261And Mr. Alton takes it hardly?
14261And how long will it be before Barscombe passes?
14261And in the second?
14261And is Mr. Alton in the habit of making similar presents?
14261And is n''t it?
14261And that I should not have asked you?
14261And that is all you can tell me?
14261And that is all?
14261And the silver still lies hidden up there?
14261And this loan or whatever it is will prevent that happening? 14261 And what are we to do?"
14261And what became of her? 14261 And what made you tell me now?"
14261And when the river froze?
14261And when you went into that place this morning there was nothing again?
14261And which of them is what we''re going to do?
14261And yet you distrusted me once?
14261And yet you take your father''s part?
14261And you are going back to look for the silver tomorrow? 14261 And you are going to do a good deal?"
14261And you believe the thing''s going to be?
14261And you could look on while a cattle- driving boor made himself a laughing- stock at Carnaby?
14261And you fancied you could dispense with common courtesy in my case?
14261And your friend got away?
14261And, so far as you know, was there anything of that kind?
14261And,said Alice Deringham,"you wondered if he was mistaken?"
14261And,said Hallam,"you would be ready to pay for it?"
14261And,said Miss Deringham,"Mrs. Jimmy resembles me?"
14261And?
14261Anything the worse, Harry?
14261Are n''t there plenty to be picked up in this country without looking for them?
14261Are those the things you would like a dainty English lady who knows nothing of what we have to do now and then to hear?
14261Are you finding anything down there, Tom?
14261Are you not suggesting an impossibility?
14261Are you pleased with this country?
14261Are you quite sure you have told us all, Harry?
14261Are you staying here?
14261Are you still pleased with your tame bear?
14261Are you sure you have not lost the way?
14261Are you sure you''re wise?
14261Bring them in?
14261Business worries?
14261But have you heard from Tom?
14261But have you nothing in contemplation?
14261But how did he get there?
14261But how was I to know?
14261But is there anything you could do in Vancouver? 14261 But she would be wanted at Carnaby?"
14261But there is hope?
14261But there is no reason?
14261But what is Carnaby to you?
14261But what is Mr. Alton doing?
14261But what''s the matter with the Tyee dollars, Harry, that you would n''t do Hallam''s packing?
14261But why did Mr. Alton go?
14261But why did you not ask for it earlier, Harry? 14261 But you were left the money, or most of it?"
14261But, Harry, what is to be done? 14261 But,"said Alice Deringham,"how was it that Mr. Alton did not make sure of the mine?"
14261But,said Mrs. Forel,"what brought it on?"
14261But,said the girl,"how could you know that?"
14261Ca n''t you think of anything a little more pleasant?
14261Can you not believe that the man who packed our provisions in through flooded fords and snow would do anything out of generosity?
14261Can you see Mr. Alton? 14261 Can you send us nurse or capable woman?
14261Can you suggest anything at all? 14261 Can you tell me where Mr. Henry Alton is?"
14261Can you wait until I come down next week, Carter?
14261Carnaby Grange?
14261Could you not have put it in another way?
14261Damer?
14261Dead?
14261Did I ever give you any cause for believing that I would?
14261Did it ever occur to you that you had probably as much already as is good for you?
14261Did it strike you that I walked kind of stiffly?
14261Did she tell you so?
14261Did you come out here from England?
14261Did you expect anything else from him?
14261Did you find the panther''s trail?
14261Did you find the peg?
14261Did you know the man?
14261Do I understand that he gave it you?
14261Do n''t the salmon swim in it, and the bear and deer come down to drink?
14261Do n''t you ever get tired or hungry, Harry?
14261Do n''t you know me, Harry? 14261 Do n''t you know your sister better-- you fool?
14261Do you know that you bushmen have made me ashamed once or twice?
14261Do you know what he means?
14261Do you know what you have done?
14261Do you mean to do nothing?
14261Do you put up every stranger who calls here, and give him a fowl for supper? 14261 Do you see anything down there?"
14261Do you think I could?
14261Do you think anything has?
14261Do you think that last was wise?
14261Do you think you could sleep there?
14261Dollars running out?
14261Dramatic, but it''s a little incomplete, is n''t it?
14261Excuse?
14261Father,she said faintly,"do you think he has gone the wrong way?
14261Father,she said,"in case the purchaser turns us out where shall we go to- night?
14261Forel,he said,"where did all those dollars come from?"
14261Got anything you do n''t want folks to know about in here?
14261Got that quite straight? 14261 Had n''t you better get way on, Tom?"
14261Had you any especial reason when you asked me to go, Harry?
14261Hallam? 14261 Harry, are you wise?"
14261Harry,he said presently,"you have got most of the things you wanted so far?"
14261Harry?
14261Has anything upset you, Deringham?
14261Has he mentioned any intention of returning with you?
14261Has he ridden off wet through as he was?
14261Has n''t that an appearance of unnecessary patronage?
14261Have I admitted that it was an affliction, or do you suppose I am very frightened of a little indifferent tea?
14261Have we any chance at all?
14261Have we hurt you, Harry?
14261Have you a mineral water factory at Somasco, too?
14261Have you any reason for going into these details?
14261Have you forgotten? 14261 Have you got it?"
14261Have you had bad news, father?
14261Have you seen the man who brought the message?
14261He crawled away into the bush?
14261He does that kind of thing sometimes?
14261He had the specimens with him?
14261He knew me?
14261How could any one willing to help us do so, father?
14261How could you know that?
14261How did you guess that?
14261How did you know that?
14261How is he?
14261How is she?
14261How long have I been?
14261How long have you been here?
14261How long shall we stay here?
14261I am not fond of going to the bank, and got Mr. Forel to change my English cheque into currency, but why do you want it?
14261I could come and see you at Vancouver when I come back?
14261I do n''t know that I asked you, though I meant to, but you and Tom staked two more claims off?
14261I figure you''ve got a programme?
14261I know what you mean-- but would even what I have told you warrant you thinking that of me?
14261I only seized his shoulder, and you would not have expected me to look on?
14261I presume you know Alton is going up to find the silver he needs to help him traverse your schemes?
14261I suppose you have not a few dollars you could give me, father?
14261I talked a good deal, Charley, when I was sick?
14261I think you told me your sisters were married now?
14261I was wondering if you would like a cigar, sir?
14261I wonder if any of them were connected with the sale of Townshead''s ranch?
14261I wonder if one might venture to congratulate you on your resolution?
14261I wonder if you have forgotten the hog? 14261 If Miss Deringham is punished for her wicked pride what is that to you?"
14261If you do n''t resent the question, how do you know?
14261Is Harry Alton anywhere around, miss?
14261Is n''t it time you got hold of me? 14261 Is n''t that a somewhat curious way of putting it?"
14261Is n''t that beside the question?
14261Is n''t this country good enough for anybody?
14261Is there any reason why you ca n''t tell me a little more? 14261 Is there anything worrying you?"
14261Is there nothing to say on the other side?
14261It is a little sudden, is it not?
14261It is a question of the value of your time and Mr. Calhoun''s apparently?
14261It is grotesque-- almost horrible, is n''t it?
14261It is important that he should have the draught?
14261It must have been a load off your mind when she refused you?
14261It was the big bushman I saw there?
14261It was,said Miss Deringham,"sufficiently exasperating, but was the rest justifiable because you were a stronger or bolder man than him?"
14261It''s a big estate?
14261Jack''s no better?
14261Know any reason why you should n''t have a drink with me?
14261Mean?
14261More water?
14261Mounted?
14261Mr. Alton is an authority on cattle?
14261Mr. Henry Alton?
14261No,said Alton,"that''s the pity; but could n''t you remember just now and then that you are friends with me?"
14261No? 14261 No?"
14261No?
14261No?
14261No?
14261No?
14261No?
14261No?
14261No?
14261No?
14261No?
14261No?
14261Nobody to follow him? 14261 Not coming?"
14261Nothing wrong at the ranch, I hope, Miss Nellie?
14261Now I think you know a good deal about all that goes on in this city?
14261Now I wonder if one could take the liberty?
14261Now how long have you been looking for it?
14261Now is there nothing that I can do?
14261Now what am I to answer to that? 14261 Now what in the name of thunder made you tell that story?"
14261Now what the---- is all this about?
14261Now, where did you come from?
14261Of course you know what he was over there?
14261Patent medicines and hair- growers are up?
14261Shall I go in, and look at your patient?
14261So far as my opinion goes, I scarcely think it will; but is n''t that a little outside the question? 14261 So you gave it up?"
14261So you intend to find the silver?
14261Still alone?
14261Still, is n''t it slightly egotistical? 14261 That is niggardly?"
14261That is what you would consider a soft job in this country?
14261That wound of yours is troubling you?
14261That''s correct?
14261The Bluebird?
14261The cattle? 14261 The coffee?"
14261The great question is still unanswered?
14261The lake?
14261The ones who have too much to eat and too little to do, or the others who have to keep on doing something because they''re hungry? 14261 Then how are you going to pack Harry and the other things over the range?"
14261Then is there any means of getting on to Cedar Valley?
14261Then there is nothing I can do?
14261Then what did you mean when you spoke about the dress packet?
14261Then you had thought about it, Harry?
14261Then you have n''t heard it yet?
14261Then you two had trouble when you split? 14261 Then,"said Alton,"you ca n''t tell me?"
14261Then,said Hallam, with a grin,"what''s your programme if I do n''t agree?
14261Then,said Hallam,"Alton stands between you and this Carnaby property?"
14261There are two kinds of men in this world, Charley, and which of them makes it go?
14261There is silver in those mountains, then?
14261There was a good deal of water coming down?
14261They had a ranch up here?
14261They have heard nothing yet?
14261They have lost the money?
14261They usually do, but we''ll surmise that in place of them we get the back- draughts from the Pole?
14261Those were friends of yours from the old country?
14261Thursday?
14261Two of them? 14261 Very pretty and stylish, is n''t she?
14261Waited for him when he was almost helpless and the man meant to murder him?
14261Waited for him?
14261Was it a rich vein?
14261Was it very hard?
14261Was n''t it a trifle foolish of Mrs. Forel? 14261 Was n''t there a paper you took from Damer?"
14261Wasted?
14261Well, was n''t it there?
14261Well,said Alton a trifle curtly,"you did n''t come keeyowling through the bush like a prairie coyote to tell me that?"
14261Well,said Alton,"tell me, Miss Nellie, were the lilies where the ashes hung over the lake?
14261Well,said Okanagan,"did you ever hear of one that went for a horse close up with a tent before?"
14261Well?
14261What are you doing on my claim?
14261What are you stopping for? 14261 What are you stopping for?"
14261What are you thinking?
14261What brings you here to talk of Carnaby?
14261What could he do on Thursday? 14261 What did he charge you?"
14261What do you make of that?
14261What do you think of them?
14261What do you wish to do?
14261What has gone wrong with Deringham?
14261What is that fellow?
14261What kind of horse?
14261What right have you and I to be going back to dinner when that girl has n''t enough to eat?
14261What things?
14261What was the end?
14261What was the shooting for, and where''s your horse?
14261What would any son do? 14261 What''s the difficulty?"
14261What''s the meaning of this, Charley?
14261What''s the meaning of this, Harry?
14261What''s the use of wiring any one the names of cities?
14261Whatever could have made you think that of me?
14261Whatever made you say that?
14261Where are you going, Harry? 14261 Where are you going, Harry?"
14261Where has our accomplished companion gone to?
14261Where have we got to, Tom?
14261Where is your father?
14261Where the brimstone does Mrs. Margery keep the scrubbing soap?
14261Where were you going?
14261Where''s Harry?
14261Where''s Harry?
14261Where''s the man who brought you here?
14261Wherever did you get cigars of that kind from? 14261 Who is Mrs. Jimmy, and does her husband belong to Somasco?"
14261Whose standing in with Alton of Somasco, boys?
14261Why did you borrow that money from Mr. Hallam, father? 14261 Why not go on now?"
14261Why should you suppose that, and venture to presume upon it?
14261Why?
14261Why?
14261Will the pieces knit as they were before?
14261Will you look up and tell me that again?
14261Will you not see what I am, and how very different that is from what you think of me?
14261Will you not think it over?
14261Will you take that in to Miss Townshead, and not tell her who bought it?
14261Will you wait a moment, please?
14261Without telling me? 14261 Would it be presuming?"
14261Would it be worth while?
14261Would it have been possible for you to do anything to help them if you had reached the ranch in time?
14261Would you be astonished to hear that Alton, who seems to have anticipated disaster, left you Carnaby by will?
14261Ye will be asking about the place?
14261Yes?
14261Yes?
14261Yes?
14261You and Charley will miss us, then?
14261You apparently read the Scriptures?
14261You are a relation of hers?
14261You are a socialist, then?
14261You are an Englishman?
14261You are not pleased with me?
14261You are pleased that we have won?
14261You are pleased with it?
14261You are, however, really an Englishman, are n''t you?
14261You can understand what I told you?
14261You did not find it then?
14261You do n''t know?
14261You do n''t seem so confident about the other sex?
14261You do not like England, then?
14261You do not seem to like him?
14261You do not suppose I should be openly resentful?
14261You fancy there is one?
14261You fancy you may have been wrong?
14261You found nothing after I left you where the trail split tip?
14261You got it?
14261You had Deringham and Miss Deringham staying with you?
14261You have got that down? 14261 You have had trouble with him before?"
14261You have n''t been home?
14261You have worked for him possibly?
14261You heard him?
14261You heard that woman?
14261You heard what happened to your kinsman?
14261You knew him, Charley?
14261You know more about his partner?
14261You know what day it is?
14261You know who he is, Tom? 14261 You know, too?"
14261You made one fire?
14261You managed to crawl up?
14261You mean in the city?
14261You mean it?
14261You mean that we ca n''t connect you with the horse- stealing?
14261You mean they want security?
14261You mean what kind of man he is?
14261You mean?
14261You taught Miss Townshead here?
14261You think I can be of some use to you?
14261You think he did?
14261You think that would have counted?
14261You took nothing with your breakfast, Harry?
14261You want to tell her? 14261 You were alone, I think?"
14261You will be contented now?
14261You will be gone when we come back?
14261You will think it is horribly too much?
14261You''re going to make a dress of that stuff, Miss Nellie?
14261You''re going to talk?
14261You''re not feeling well?
14261You''re through?
14261You,said Miss Deringham, smiling,"are an optimist, then?"
14261Your father is keeping all right?
14261Your recent neighbour is not doing well down there?
14261A little late to worry tired folks, is n''t it?
14261Alton nodded,"Still, it must be worth a little, and would give the folks who lived there a standing in the old country?"
14261Alton''s face remained impassive, but his voice was not quite in accordance with it as he said,"The police have no word of him?"
14261Alton?"
14261And the old place?
14261And your other difficulties?
14261And-- after all that has happened-- are you not foolish still?
14261Anyway, I''ll do what I can for you, and now about that other car- load and the cattle?"
14261Are not Abana and Pharfar better than all the waters of Israel?"
14261Are you anywhere around?"
14261Are you hurt, Harry, and what''s all this?"
14261Are you ready, Tom?"
14261Are you sorry you did n''t stop there, Charley?"
14261But how long are you going to be stripping that fowl?"
14261But was n''t there a lake?"
14261Ca n''t you find that ice, Forel?
14261Ca n''t you see that you are in the way of somebody who stands behind that man?"
14261Ca n''t you tell me what it is?"
14261Can you hear nothing?"
14261Can you see them yet?"
14261Can you tell me where he is?"
14261Carnaby is n''t exactly what you call a rich property?"
14261Cartier?"
14261Charley, you''re a lucky man, but why have you been so long over it?
14261Deringham?"
14261Did I talk about that?"
14261Did I tell him we had to negotiate Tyrer''s bond at a discount?"
14261Did I tell you how I got it?"
14261Did I tell you that Thorne called upon her?"
14261Did anything else strike you, Charley?"
14261Did you think for a moment that she would?"
14261Do I know when Hallam will get it?
14261Do n''t see any reason why you should n''t take a drink with me?"
14261Do n''t you know Harry yet?"
14261Do you happen to be on good terms with Mr. Hallam?
14261Do you know anything better, Tom?"
14261Do you know that what you have done means just everything to Somasco?"
14261Do you know there is scarcely enough for breakfast in the house, and that I am dreadfully hungry now?"
14261Do you think I do n''t know-- both of you-- better?"
14261Do you think I should be content to take-- the second place?"
14261Dropped a good many dollars that time, did n''t you?"
14261Got hold of that, have n''t you?
14261Had n''t you better go and bring them in, Harry?"
14261Has Hallam got a hold upon the ranch?"
14261Have the strawberries gone up, Harry?"
14261Have you had many strangers round here?"
14261He ceased and looked up at her suddenly as though the fear had left him, and the girl said very softly,"Do n''t you know me?"
14261His voice was low and harsh as he asked,"Then what is to be done?"
14261How long do we stay here?"
14261How much would you care to spend, Harry?"
14261I could borrow money upon it, or sell it?"
14261I presume you know rancher Alton by the interest you show in him?"
14261I still want to know what gave you the courage now?"
14261I wonder if you can figure what his next move will be?"
14261I wonder just how far back the other man is?"
14261I''ll ready ye some pork and flapjacks?"
14261If the man would sooner we did not see it, what did he make the fire for?"
14261If you met a man riding along quietly what could you do to him?"
14261Is he dead?"
14261Is it fit for a lady?"
14261Is it important to you?"
14261Is it you?"
14261Is n''t that so, Charley?"
14261Is that you and the others, Tom?"
14261Is that you, Harry?"
14261Is there any reason why I should?"
14261Is there any reason why a man should n''t do what is right because it suits him?
14261Is there anything to be done?"
14261It hurts me, Charley, but what could I do?
14261It was opportune?"
14261It would hurt her to be turned out of Carnaby?"
14261It''s alluring, Harry?"
14261Jack would n''t have gone up yonder if you had n''t wanted the dollars?"
14261Margery?"
14261Miss Deringham, I think?"
14261Miss Townshead was working at something uncongenial for a livelihood, and was not especially cordial to you?"
14261Now Miss Deringham has had a pretty good time in the old country?"
14261Now did I put in anything about the Democrats going in?"
14261Now do you believe I do not know what brought you here to- day?"
14261Now do you think Miss Deringham was vexed because she did n''t get that fishing?
14261Now has it struck you that there are things we might do?"
14261Now when you get your notice you will send word to me?"
14261Now where was I?
14261Now you want to light out, leaving him to laugh at you?"
14261Now you''re quite ready, you and Tom, to swear to the story you told me?"
14261Now, are you going to gain anything by kicking against me?"
14261Now, is there any use in looking for the fellow with the lariat?"
14261Now, of course, you know what you can do, but is n''t it playing a little too much into your own hand?
14261Now, there are some folks in the old country who''d be sorry if you do n''t come back?"
14261Of course you heard nothing, Alton, from the roads and trails?"
14261Oh, why can they not stop talking?
14261Quite romantic, is n''t it?
14261Quite sure nobody came here with any message for me about it that you forgot?"
14261Shall I ask for some more for you?"
14261Shall I put it on the stove?"
14261Still, all that is a little outside the question, is n''t it?"
14261Still, what do you want to leave the country for, anyway?"
14261That can never be quite wiped out-- but what could I do?"
14261That man did n''t like him before, and it''s quite possible he fell foul of Alton after it, but where does that take in me?
14261That was a tolerably bad accident you had?"
14261The man had a pistol and you took it from him?"
14261The question is what did you hear?"
14261The question is, will any of us come out again alive?"
14261Then a cry came out of the shadows,"Is it you, Harry?"
14261Then a voice came up,"Was n''t there a dry goods package of some kind, Charley?"
14261Then he said,"If I admitted that you were right?"
14261There remains the question is he willing?"
14261There was a brief silence when he had finished, until one of the Englishmen said:"I presume things of that kind seldom happen now?"
14261There was a time when you would have been driving to dinner with a diamond pin stuck in you and silk stockings on about this time, Charley?"
14261There was relief in Alton''s face, which softened suddenly as he said,"And how is Miss Deringham?"
14261There''s nothing going to hurt him, but it would n''t be wise to fool things, you understand?"
14261These are your things, miss?"
14261They find silver there?"
14261Very sudden, was n''t it?"
14261Was Damer the man who rode out for the railroad one snowy night, shortly before I started after Harry?"
14261Was it the leg that kept you?"
14261Was n''t there a man called Nailer mixed up in the affair?"
14261What am I to do with this one?"
14261What are we to do when we are turned out of the ranch, as we shall be very shortly?"
14261What are you doing here anyway?"
14261What are you going to do with Carnaby, Harry?"
14261What are you going to do with it?
14261What could he be doing?"
14261What do you think, Tom?"
14261What do you want them for?"
14261What do you want?"
14261What has taken him to the settlement, anyway?"
14261What is the bidding now?"
14261Where does it come from?"
14261Where have you been all this time, Harry?"
14261Where is Townshead going?"
14261Where''s Nellie Townshead now?"
14261Who was it told you?"
14261Why is n''t Harry Alton or his partner here?"
14261Would n''t it have been wiser if you had waited a little longer, Harry?"
14261Would you like to follow with Charley, Miss Deringham?"
14261You and your father live there, do n''t you?"
14261You are going right ahead in this city?"
14261You are of course influenced by a desire for his safety?"
14261You are presumably an Englishman?"
14261You did not think that-- because of anything which had happened-- I should be more apt to listen?"
14261You do n''t know anything about bookkeeping, Charley?"
14261You do n''t want him to get those dollars out of Carnaby?"
14261You follow me?"
14261You had, however, a tolerably mixed bag on that occasion?"
14261You have some money by you?"
14261You knew them in the old country?"
14261You mean me?"
14261You surely remember he is lying ill?"
14261You think that is foolish of me?
14261You understand these folks from the old country, Charley?"
14261You were trying to figure on what I was after?
14261You will lend us the house for a week or two?"
14261You will not let him disturb you?"
14261You would put the police on to me?"
14261You''ll excuse me?"
14261You''re not going to tell anybody, and repeat the mistake you made?"
14261You''ve got that, Nellie?
20418All?
20418An''in the name of the seven wonders of creation, what for would you be getting down?
20418An''wa''d ye have me expose the head of a mitherless bairn to a''the clack o''the auld geese in the settlement? 20418 An''who''s talking of killin'', ye young cut- throat?
20418And did they,I cried, in spite of the injunction,"did they do that to you?"
20418And have the whole pack of them sneaking after us? 20418 And how can I strike a man who saved my life?"
20418And pray, Sir, what might''bunk''mean?
20418And she could n''t be lost in Charlesbourg forest?
20418And the stone?
20418And there was an Indian encampment a few yards down the road?
20418And was my little Eric at the hunt, and did he shoot an arrow all by himself?
20418And what are the capers of this, my beast, compared to the antics of fate, Sir Priest?
20418And what did I say about Frances?
20418And where do you go?
20418And why is that tent apart from the rest and who is in it?
20418And womankind?
20418And you forgive all? 20418 And you''re quite sure she is n''t in the house?"
20418And----"And what?
20418Are n''t you coming? 20418 Are there no dark halls in there, unsafe for you?"
20418Are they with you? 20418 Are they with you?"
20418Are those buffalo, Black Cat?
20418Are ye Rufus Gillespie?
20418Are you Gillespie?
20418Are you among the prophets?
20418Are you cold, now?
20418Are you hurt, and at such a time?
20418Are you ill, man?
20418Are you men back? 20418 Are you men looking for trouble?"
20418Are you mooning after the Little Statue already?
20418Are you possessed?
20418Are you sure you''ll be safe?
20418Are you sure you''re safe?
20418Are you there?
20418Are you tired, Frances?
20418Are-- they-- with-- you?
20418Art satisfied?
20418Aye-- is it Frances y''r speerin''after?
20418Bad men?
20418Bag him, eh?
20418Be still-- you what?
20418Because they saw you with me?
20418Because----"Because what?
20418Burning hay- ricks?
20418But it did n''t succeed?
20418But the Citadel paper?
20418But the road, Eric?
20418By Jove, Hamilton, we need it, do n''t we?
20418Call that hard luck?
20418Certainly we are, but get this truck to higher ground, will you?
20418Colin Robertson-- the Nor''-Wester?
20418Could n''t they have gone down the road to those Indian encampments?
20418Crying?
20418Dear love-- wherever are you?
20418Did I rive ye sore, lad?
20418Did I strike somebody? 20418 Did I strike somebody?"
20418Did that spring up all of a sudden?
20418Did the little wifie let him off for a night''s play?
20418Did they torture you?
20418Did ye ever-- did ever ye see such a little termagant, such a persuasive, commanding little queen of a termagant?
20418Did you really expect him back alive from the Bloods?
20418Do I?
20418Do my eyes tell lies? 20418 Do n''t you know?"
20418Do you find the way very far-- Frances?
20418Do you know where he is?
20418Do you need to ask with such a galaxy of nut- brown maidens?
20418Do you really mean it? 20418 Do you really want to know how?"
20418Do you think the_ Bois- Brulés_ would plunder your boats?
20418Do-- with-- him?
20418Do_ I_ scent matrimony?
20418Eagles, are they?
20418Eh?
20418Eric Hamilton, are you mad?
20418Faith, now, what might they all be doing with stars for diadems? 20418 For anything else?"
20418For the trial of cases occurring?
20418Friend, or foe?
20418From whom?
20418Game scarce on MacKenzie River?
20418Gillespie, man, what''s wrong? 20418 Had him in your power-- knew what he''d done-- and-- and-- didn''t?"
20418Hang it,drawled Colonel Adderly, a squatty man with an over- fed look on his bulging, red cheeks,"hang it, you do n''t expect Hamilton?
20418Has any one seen Eric Hamilton?
20418Has your Lordship some colonization scheme that you ask such pointed questions?
20418Have I been here for months?
20418Have n''t many brethren come from the same tribe more like warped branches than men? 20418 Have the Indians passed, or are they to come?"
20418Have they been making ladders?
20418Have ye as much as got a glint of her eye to- day?
20418Have ye no seen Frances?
20418Have you-- oh-- have you?
20418He is coming?
20418He''d let you hear about it to all eternity, too, would n''t he?
20418Help you up?
20418Hoo are ye, gillie?
20418Hoo are ye, gillie?
20418How are you going to get''em to her?
20418How can I, Louis Laplante, son of a seigneur, strike a man who wo n''t hit back?
20418How could we know that Selkirk would purchase controlling interest in Hudson''s Bay stock? 20418 How did you reach Fort Gibraltar?"
20418How do you know he''s a spy?
20418How do you know?
20418How far,I began, with a curious inability to use my wits and tongue,"how far-- I mean how long have I been asleep, sir?"
20418How stands the hour- glass?
20418How strong are the Mandanes?
20418How''s the cold in your head?
20418Hudson''s Bay been tampering with your Indians? 20418 Hudson''s Bay, or Nor''-Wester?"
20418I beg your pardon, gentlemen,said I,"what were you saying to Colonel Adderly?"
20418I have had?
20418I say,called one, who had been dazed by the splendor,"how do you tell which is the lookin''glass and which is the window?"
20418I say,exclaimed a man joining the group,"d''y''hear the news?
20418If you meant to stay at the fort, why did n''t you decide sooner?
20418Interesting and delightful?
20418Is Diable among them?
20418Is Diable here?
20418Is Eric sleepy?
20418Is Mr. Sutherland an H. B. C. or Nor''-Wester?
20418Is boy sleepy?
20418Is it a cold night?
20418Is it a long story, Rufus?
20418Is it a pretty story, Rufus?
20418Is it white?
20418Is it you, Eric? 20418 Is it you, really you, looking as old as your great grandfather?
20418Is it your wife, Miriam, and your boy?
20418Is that all about Diable, Eric?
20418Is that all?
20418Is that in our honor?
20418Is that the tribe?
20418Is that true about the Indian kidnapping a woman?
20418Is that true?
20418Is that you, Eric?
20418Is this Sunday?
20418It is n''t so cold as-- as that, is it?
20418It was daylight, Eric?
20418Know any of them?
20418Know they-- what for-- you come?
20418Le Grand Diable-- did you see him?
20418Le Grand Diable?
20418Let go-- is ut ye''re orderin''me?
20418Looks thin, does n''t he? 20418 Lots of confidential talks with her, I suppose?"
20418Louis,I commanded, utterly out of patience,"what of Miriam?
20418Louis,said I, trying to fathom the meaning of his wink,"are those Indians to come yet?"
20418Mane it?
20418Marry!--What?
20418May I not come?
20418Miriam, what has happened?
20418Mr. Sutherland,I cried, with all the impatience of a child,"please tell me, where is your daughter?"
20418My devil, or yours?
20418No?
20418No?
20418Nor''-Wester, but what does that matter? 20418 Not a word for y''rself?"
20418Not know what?
20418Now, Louis, what do you mean by this nonsense?
20418Now, how shall I pay you?
20418O Uncle MacKenzie,said I with a wry face,"do you measure your own wine so?"
20418Oh, is it only you? 20418 Only wisdom?"
20418Out of your reckoning already?
20418Out wid y''r nonsense, and what good are y''thinkin''ye''ll do--? 20418 Pay me?"
20418Please see if they fit, Sir? 20418 Rufus,"he whispered softly,"where are they taking me?"
20418See those stones?
20418Shioux squaw-- Devil''s wife-- how you say it in English? 20418 Sir Alexander was a first cousin of yours, was he not?"
20418Sit down, will you?

20418Smoke? 20418 So the knife cut well, did it?
20418So the lordly Captain Miles McDonell of the Queen''s Rangers, generalissimo of all creation, defies us, does he?

20418There''s a fountain- spout in Nor''-West vaults for those who know where to tap the spigot, eh, Louis?
20418These-- are they all friends?

20418Very far?
20418Very near? 20418 Was it worth while this year?"
20418Was that all?
20418Was-- was-- Laplante-- in that?
20418We do n''t display our little amours----"No,broke in the other,"we just display our little contours and get snubbed, eh?"
20418Well, Gillespie, when you take yours up, take mine along, too, will you? 20418 Well,"said I, with a laugh, which surprised the rascals mightily,"now you''ve captured your elephant, what do you propose to do with him?"
20418Well?
20418Well?
20418Well?
20418Were a few Nor''-Westers so successful in holding back the Metis at Seven Oaks, you''d like to see that experiment repeated?

20418What are you doing yourself? 20418 What are you going to do with him?"
20418What are you going to do with the settlers, Cuthbert?
20418What are you here for? 20418 What boats?"

20418What do those mean, Little Fellow?

20418Why did he say that?
20418Why did you lie to them?
20418Why do n''t you answer?
20418Why else do I hide you in my tent? 20418 Why not leave them in the fort till things quiet down?"
20418Why, Gillespie,called a voice,"what in the world are you doing here?"
20418Why?
20418Will he be back?
20418With all the Indians of Red River in possession of that fort?
20418With what?
20418With you?
20418Ye blunder- busticus, ye, what have ye been doing?
20418Yes, do n''t you know you''ve been talking in torrents for the past ten minutes? 20418 Yes-- why?
20418You are going for Miriam?
20418You coming too?
20418You got away too quick for them?
20418You know I lie to you in the gorge?
20418You know what that lie mean--and he hesitated--"mean to her-- to Miriam?"
20418You, Gillespie?
20418You? 20418 Your daughter is not at home?"
20418_ Manus habent, et non palpabunt; pedes_----"Is Gillespie here?
20418_ Similes illis fiant qui faciunt ea_----"Some one here before us?
20418_ Us?_she asked.
20418_ Voilà, Monsieur?_said the_ habitant_, which made four words for that day.
20418***** Need I say what door opened, what hands drew me in and chafed life into the benumbed being?
20418*****"How can I thank you for what you have done?"
20418Am I going mad?
20418Am I to believe that?"
20418An''ye claver sic''nonsense when ye''re daft, what would ye say when ye''re sane?
20418And did she flare back at me?
20418And do you know, Rufus, I never could thank you all?
20418And the Sioux did not eat you by inches, beginning with your thumbs?
20418And the fellows''ve got to stretch their necks to come up to her ideas of what''s proper, that''s why she''s a stature, ai n''t it?
20418And what else, indeed?
20418And what were they decreeing?
20418Are there any bleeding hearts in the bush?"
20418Are they ahead?
20418Are they with you?"
20418Are we playing jest is earnest, or earnest is jest?"
20418Are you getting the bench?"
20418Are you mad?"
20418Are you mad?"
20418Besides, was I not returning to one who was peerless?
20418But sisters do mending, do n''t they?"

20418CHAPTER XXI LOUIS PAYS ME BACK What tempted me to moor opposite the ruins of Fort Gibraltar?
20418Ca n''t you borrow one from the Indians?
20418Call all even?"
20418Can I do anything to repay you for your trouble in bringing me here?"
20418Can any man blame me for breaking through the thicket and my resolution and discretion and all?
20418Can you go as trader for your people?
20418Can_ you_ see anything up there?"
20418Carpe Diem!_""What is_ Carpe Diem_?"
20418Could I foresee that simple act of mine was to let loose all the punishment the Hudson''s Bay had been heaping up against the day of judgment?
20418Cursing the burdens, yourselves have bound, In a maze of wants, running round and round-- Are ye free men, or manniken slaves?
20418D''y''hear?
20418Did Little Fellow doubt their word?
20418Did Louis act from the love of acting and trickery and intrigue?
20418Did she not bind the white woman?
20418Did she not drag me over the ground like a dead stag?
20418Did she not slay La Robe Noire?
20418Did she not slay the white man before Monsieur''s eyes?
20418Did the Nor''-Wester and I hesitate, and look from the man to the dagger, and from the dagger to the man; or is this an evil dream from a black past?
20418Did you find out anything?"
20418Did you find this--"indicating the spear handle--"there?"
20418Did you hear anything special in the fort that night?"
20418Did you see it?"

20418Do you hear anything?
20418Do you hear the bells?
20418Do you know, you baggage, that you are delaying this young man in a matter that is of life- and- death importance?
20418Do you raise the tomahawk, or pipe of peace?
20418Do you remember how you saved my life twice from the Sioux, Louis?"
20418Do you think Father Holland would take''em up?"
20418Do you think I stay here for nothing?
20418Do you think I was old Cam''s private secretary for nothin''?
20418Does the physician justify medical experiments on the criminal, or the sacrificial priest the driving of the scape- goat into the wilderness?
20418Drunk is he?"
20418Eh?
20418For the Lord''s sake, boy, do you expect to find the woman by believing in that bloated bugaboo?"
20418For the sake of the old days, Louis, help to undo the wrong you allowed?
20418For them, what motive but to vindicate their bravery?
20418For was it not written in my inner consciousness that destiny had appointed me to the wild, free life of the north?
20418For what was he coming to Red River in this warlike fashion?
20418Had I not dared all?
20418Had I not read, or heard, of departed spirits hovering near loved ones?
20418Had I, by some strange irony, been led to this spot that I might witness the death of my foe?
20418Had I, too, lost grip of reality; or was she in distress calling for me?
20418Had any one come and driven her to the city?
20418Had he gone to keep secret guard over the priest, or to decoy the vigilant Sioux woman?
20418Had he incriminated Diable to save himself?
20418Had he lied?
20418Had my jerk disturbed whatever it was and sent it rolling down to mid- current?
20418Had not these men gone north young and full of hope, as I was going?
20418Had she known of our efforts at all?
20418Had we not more to fear from living?
20418Had_ Monsieur_ examined the clearing between the house and the forest?
20418Hamilton,"exclaimed Uncle Jack MacKenzie, who was facing Eric as I came up behind,"have you been in a race or a fight?"
20418Hamilton?"
20418Hamilton?"
20418Hast Thou no pity?
20418Hast Thou no pity?
20418Have n''t I spent my life among them?
20418Have you brought the tribe as you promised?"
20418Have you more of that kind?"
20418Here were close- fitted boards-- here, iron- lining-- this must be the gate; but where was the lantern that hung behind?
20418How came it that I was in the woods slushing through damp mold up to my ankles in black ooze?
20418How came it that a Catholic priest lay under a Protestant roof?
20418How can I tell how long I hung there?
20418How could we know he''d secure a land grant in the very heart of our domain?"
20418How d''y''know we''re not here to warn ye about the fort?
20418How did you get away?
20418How did you know I was there?"
20418How do I know?
20418How far by the Beauport road?"
20418How long since you left the Sioux?"
20418How many men have made that vow regarding the woman they love?
20418How many more half- breeds were beneath that cliff?
20418How shall I pay you?"
20418I ca n''t stand the sisterly business, Frances----""Have you suffered much from the sisterly?"
20418I cried, exasperated with myself,"Where''s Fort Gibraltar?
20418I exclaimed, rounding him back from the hill,"Ca n''t you stop this nonsense and sit still for only two days more, or must I tie you up?
20418I run forward, I find Le Petit Garçon-- how you call him?--Leetle Fellow?
20418I see where it ought to be, where the towers ought to be higher than that brush, but where''s the fort?"
20418I thank you-- Father Holland-- is it not?
20418If the Indians had such fear, why had this band camped within a mile of the pest tent?
20418If the worst happened and I were captured, had I the courage to endure Indian tortures?
20418If they wo n''t take our boats to the States, or Canada, what else can Nor''-Westers do?"
20418Is it to be peace or war?
20418Is it you or your ghost?"
20418Is language for the use of man, or man for the use of language?"
20418Is no this fine?
20418Is that a child crying?"
20418Is that woman Miriam?"
20418Is the Indian less brave than the pale face?"
20418Is this Thy pity?
20418Joke-- ain''t it?"
20418Lah Grawnd Deeahble,"and he mouthed over our mispronunciation of his own tongue"Joke, is n''t it?"
20418Lord, boy, why did n''t ye stay with that peppery Scotchman?
20418May it please Her Majesty to grant a token to her leal and devoted knight----""What is thy request?"
20418Me hearty, but what was that?"
20418Miriam, the guiltless, was suffering at his hands; should not he, the guilty, suffer at ours?
20418Must not she do the same?
20418My God, men, how can I tell you?
20418Need I say the voice brought me to my feet at one leap?
20418No-- no-- and we''ve been hunting house and garden for hours----""And the forest?"
20418No?
20418Noo, d''ye no hear the clack o''the geese through yon open window?"
20418Now, Rufus, where are your men?
20418Now, what was there in those replies to cause happiness?
20418Now, who''s appointed to trade with the buffalo hunters but y''r very self?"
20418Of course, I should have gone----""And would it have mended matters if you''d been held hostage too?"
20418Pray, who is he?"
20418Putting out his hand he said--"Is it all right with us again, Rufus, old man?"
20418Quick, Miriam, will you try?"
20418Raising his brows in question, Mr. Jack MacKenzie touched his forehead and whispered across to me--"Mad?"
20418Say, babe, why do n''t y''r fill y''r hat with''em and put''em in her tent?"
20418Say, great chief of the Mandanes, what is thy answer?"
20418Shall I whistle for them?"
20418Shall not a sparrow fall to the ground without Thy knowledge?
20418Shall we be friends or enemies?
20418She do n''t pay more attention to you than if you wuz a stump, that''s why she''s a statue, ai n''t it?
20418She may be drown;"whispered Louis,"but we creep on, quiet like hare, no noise like deer, stiller than mountain cat, hist-- what that?"
20418Should I make the final, desperate dash now?
20418Should I wait to be smoked out of my hole, like a badger, or a raccoon?
20418Simpleton-- you think Louis a fool?"
20418Sounds funny in this desert, do n''t it?"
20418Surely you do n''t treasure any grudge yet?"
20418Sutherland?"
20418THE PRIEST JOURNEYS TO A FAR COUNTRY 433 LORDS OF THE NORTH CHAPTER I WHEREIN A LAD SEES MAKERS OF HISTORY"Has any one seen Eric Hamilton?"
20418Tell me this instant, what do you want?"
20418Tell us, what doth the Mandane offer for the blood of the young man?
20418That post, too, might be destroyed; but where were Hamilton and Father Holland?
20418That was true; for had not forty- eight hours passed since I had regained consciousness and I had heard neither her footsteps nor her voice?
20418That''s the way of it, is it?"
20418That''s why she''s a statute, ai n''t it?"
20418The pulpit silenced-- though that''s a big contract-- mankind labeled, what for women?"
20418The water''s shallow there----""What do_ you_ think?"
20418Then, why had Diable rescued his betrayer?
20418To the buffalo hunt first, then, south?
20418Too well I read the signs and knew the summons; and what can love, or gratitude, do in the presence of that summons?
20418Torture, burning, or the cool wash of a black wave gurgling over one''s head?
20418Want them all, Eric?"
20418Was I a part of the new happiness?
20418Was Miriam within range of those smoke signals?
20418Was he befooling the daughter of L''Aigle, or me?
20418Was it a beaver, or my Indian pursuers?
20418Was it old Cameron?"
20418Was it the apprehension of fear, or the buzzing in my ears, that suggested the faint, far- away echo of a clamoring multitude?
20418Was it the influence of this slip of a girl, I wonder, that a curious change came over our crews?
20418Was it the wind, or a low sigh, or a silent weeping, that I heard?
20418Was that the lad I had known?
20418Was the Sioux squaw from the other lodge listening?
20418Was the Sioux wife with her white slave really in the north country, or was she near, and did that explain my morose Iroquois''all- night vigils?
20418Was the apparition in the Mandane lodge some portent?
20418Was the fellow really delirious?
20418Was the man spying on me?
20418Was the policy, that ended so tragically a year afterwards, adopted at this meeting?
20418Was there smoke of battle?
20418Was this Miriam?
20418Was this Miriam?
20418Was this an illusion, or was I, too, going mad?
20418Was this the end of that long career of evil?
20418Was this the_ avant- courier_ of the Hudson''s Bay, delayed, like ourselves, by the storm?
20418Watched?
20418We had befooled Louis into a betrayal of his associates but how much reliance could be placed on that betrayal?
20418We had cheated Laplante; but had he in turn cheated us?
20418We had had a victory; but how long would it last?
20418Well then, why the deuce did n''t you go, and knock the head off anything that opposed you?"
20418Were those_ Carpe Diem_ flowers?"
20418Were you drunk, or were you not?
20418What about Frances?"
20418What am I, that I should escape?
20418What are they doing?"
20418What are you scared of?"
20418What can I do?"
20418What can you, one man, do against two thousand Sioux?"
20418What care Louis Laplante for the fire?
20418What care Louis for repents?
20418What care Louis for wounds and cuts and threats?
20418What could be keeping him?
20418What d''y''mane, scarin''the breath out of a body and blowing his ideas to limbo?
20418What did Frances mane by lettin''you out to- night?"
20418What did it matter if we were?
20418What did_ you_ do it for?"
20418What do you take traders for?"
20418What do you want of me?"
20418What do you want?"
20418What does Eric say before he goes to sleep?"
20418What for might the angels o''Heaven be doin''going up and down betwane the blue sky and the green earth?
20418What for wu''d a powr Irish priest be doin''a- wearin''of radiant white?
20418What had happened?
20418What had we to fear from dying?
20418What has changed him?"
20418What has that to do with it?"
20418What if some watchful Indian should discover our moving shadows?
20418What lover could send his heart''s eloquence by word of mouth with a peppery, prosaic father?
20418What matter if a lonely one like myself went out alone to the great dark?
20418What of Miriam?
20418What of Miriam?"
20418What of the stars?"
20418What of them?"
20418What picture did agate call back to my mind?
20418What spirits wail to the prairie gale?
20418What tempts the fly into the spider''s web and the fish with a wide ocean for play- ground into one small net?
20418What wonder the gauzy northern lights are bands of marshaling warriors and the stars torches lighting those who ride the plains of heaven?
20418What would Rufus do without ye?"
20418What would you do?"
20418What''s coming now?"
20418What''s goin''on here?"
20418What''s kept you?"
20418What''s that?"
20418What''s up?"
20418What''s wrong out there?"
20418What''s wrong?"
20418What''s your plan?"
20418What,''an wuld ye dare strike a servant o''the Lord?
20418What-- what-- is it?
20418Whatever was it I was to say about stars?
20418Whatever''s the matter with you?"
20418When the harsh voice asked,"Do I rive ye sore?"
20418Where are the parties?"
20418Where are they takin''me, Rufus?
20418Where are y''r wits?
20418Where are your eyes?"
20418Where is the child?
20418Where is the messenger from the Mandanes?"
20418Where is the white woman?"
20418Where was Fort Gibraltar?
20418Where was I?
20418Where was Louis in hiding?
20418Where was the carcass?
20418Where''s his tribe?"
20418Where''s that Frenchman?
20418Where''s the fort?"
20418Where''s the white woman?
20418Where''s your father?"
20418Where_ is_ Rufus Gillespie?"
20418Which of these cut- throats may I claim for a son?"
20418Whither away so fast?"
20418Who are you?"
20418Who can say that I might not have departed from the path called rectitude?
20418Who can tell?
20418Who follows?
20418Who has them?"
20418Who tells his woes to the evening breeze?
20418Who''ll miss him?
20418Who''s afraid of the Sioux?
20418Who''s going to play?"
20418Who''s put off the trail by the fire of a fool Sioux?
20418Who-- are-- you?
20418Who-- in the world-- are you?
20418Who?"
20418Whose cry outpierces the night- bird''s note?
20418Whose voice mourns sadly through sighing trees?
20418Whur''s Eric Hamilton, I say?"
20418Whur''s Eric Hamilton?"
20418Whur-- d''--y''--hide-- it?"
20418Why ca n''t you help me?
20418Why ca n''t you say Statue?"
20418Why did I do it?
20418Why did she evade me and turn altogether to the priest at her right?
20418Why did she not signal?
20418Why do n''t you make something out of this?
20418Why does he not come home to me?"
20418Why does n''t he come?
20418Why had Louis gone off, and why did he not come back?
20418Why have inane answers to inane, timorous questions transformed earth into paradise and mortals into angels?
20418Why have you been so hard on us?"
20418Why have you destroyed our fort?"
20418Why should the half- breed not have his share of the booty?
20418Why should the_ Bois- Brulés_ not pillage Hudson''s Bay posts?
20418Why was the thing lying there, anyway?
20418Why, Gillespie, what do you know of such things?
20418Will it make your revenge any sweeter to torture a helpless, white woman?"
20418Will ye follow the boats alone and see that no harm comes to them?"
20418Will ye go?"
20418Wo n''t she blush?
20418Wo n''t you come back?"
20418Wo n''t you try all for Eric''s sake?
20418Would I be justified in taking Diable prisoner, and would my company consent to the demoralization of their crews by such a step?
20418Would it be right to get hold of Le Grand Diable?"
20418Would they return to the last marks of my trail?
20418Yes, quite, as long as the settlers are here; and you, you will let me know when the priest sets out for Pembina?"
20418You generous?
20418You give life?
20418You help one able help himself?
20418You nearly wrenched my hand off----""Can you blame me?"
20418You wanted to go into that wigwam; did n''t you?
20418You were not meant for feasts, my solemncholy?
20418an''is that you, Father Holland?"
20418came the response in an amused voice,"find it very far?
20418he cried,"mane it?
20418is it really so?"
20418is it you?"
20418man?"
