| 15522 | Since the French were no longer to be reckoned with, why were these forts needed? |
| 4719 | Almighty God,he pursued, in the same tone of deep agony,"what have I done? |
| 4719 | And did n''t I want to do it? |
| 4719 | And is it really my brother, Morrison? 4719 And was the body to roll back again?" |
| 4719 | Are the artillery all present, Captain Wentworth? |
| 4719 | Are the garrison all present, Mr. Lawson? 4719 But my poor brother, what of him, Lawson? |
| 4719 | Did you hear? |
| 4719 | Did you remark that last harrowing exclamation of his wife? |
| 4719 | Do you imagine, Sir Everard Valletort, the aim of your rifle was true-- that you hit him? |
| 4719 | Do you see any thing? |
| 4719 | Good Heaven, is it possible? |
| 4719 | Have you heard any thing, Erskine? |
| 4719 | Have you seen Valletort? |
| 4719 | Hear you this, Colonel de Haldimar? |
| 4719 | How did he meet his death? |
| 4719 | How then do you account for the extraordinary circumstance of Donellan having been found murdered in his master''s clothes? 4719 In what manner did Captain de Haldimar and Donellan effect their passage across the ditch?" |
| 4719 | Mr. President, Captain Blessington,interrupted the governor, haughtily,"are we met here to listen to such language from a private soldier? |
| 4719 | Quick, Morrison, give me my clothes.--Where is my brother, Sumners? |
| 4719 | See you not something dark, and slightly moving immediately in a line with the left angle of the bomb- proof? |
| 4719 | Were they to have returned in the same manner? |
| 4719 | What a set of prating fools ye are,interrupted the leading sergeant;"who ever saw an Ingian with light hair? |
| 4719 | What can they be about? |
| 4719 | What is the meaning of all this, Cassidy? |
| 4719 | What mean you, Sumners? 4719 What mean you, prisoner?" |
| 4719 | What think you, Erskine, of the policy of making an example, which may be witnessed by the enemy as well as the garrison? 4719 What, is he only wounded then?" |
| 4719 | What, sir, is it you say? |
| 4719 | Where are the Indians principally encamped, sirrah? |
| 4719 | Where is the rascal who fired at us, sirrah? 4719 Where?--in what direction?" |
| 4719 | Who does your honour mane? |
| 4719 | Who is the murdered man, then? 4719 Who is this, Erskine?" |
| 4719 | Why stand ye there, ye dolts,continued their captain,"looking around as if ye were bewitched? |
| 4719 | Your honour-- you pitiful trading scoundrel-- how dare you talk to me of your honour? 4719 Again the governor interposed:--What possible connexion can there be between this man''s life, and the crime with which he stands charged? |
| 4719 | Am I not right, Blessington?" |
| 4719 | Am I to die because I had not firmness to resist the prayer of my captain and of your son, Colonel de Haldimar?" |
| 4719 | And, even if so, what to gain, I would ask; and by what means was a correspondence with the enemy to be maintained by one in my humble station? |
| 4719 | Are you guilty, or not guilty?" |
| 4719 | Are you not ashamed to set such an example to your comrades?" |
| 4719 | Are you quite certain that it is Captain de Haldimar?" |
| 4719 | Bring the litter in to the rear.--Mitchell, you old fool, are you grown a coward in your age? |
| 4719 | But what is it you mean? |
| 4719 | But what is the matter now, Valletort? |
| 4719 | But what is the meaning and object of this new sortie? |
| 4719 | But what, save my poor and wretched wife, have I to regret? |
| 4719 | By whom, and at what?" |
| 4719 | Captain Erskine pursued:--"What the devil is the meaning of all this, Johnstone?" |
| 4719 | Colonel de Haldimar, is the explanation which I gave you only this very hour, and in private, to be made the public instrument of my condemnation? |
| 4719 | De Haldimar has been slain by the same Indian who killed Murphy.--Do you recollect his scalp cry? |
| 4719 | Did you remark how displeased the colonel looked as he bungled through it? |
| 4719 | Do you know, Captain Erskine, our company is again ordered for this duty?" |
| 4719 | Do you perfectly understand me?" |
| 4719 | Guilty, or not guilty?" |
| 4719 | Have you done so? |
| 4719 | How could the savage contrive to obtain admission? |
| 4719 | How do you explain this, prisoner?" |
| 4719 | How happens it the rope is no longer where you say it was placed? |
| 4719 | How were they respectively dressed?" |
| 4719 | How, therefore, could he be conveyed away without the alarm being given? |
| 4719 | Indeed, how is it possible any thing formed of flesh and blood could have escaped us with the vigilant watch that has been kept on the ramparts? |
| 4719 | Is it likely, with all the incentives to good conduct I have named, I should have proved a traitor to my country? |
| 4719 | Meanwhile, what answer do you make to the last charge preferred?--Are you guilty, or not guilty?" |
| 4719 | Now, Sir, I ask what has been my reward? |
| 4719 | Reginald, do you believe me? |
| 4719 | Sergeant Cassidy,"he enquired of that individual, who now came to ask if the detachment was to be dismissed,"where have you placed the litter?" |
| 4719 | Surely you would not tamper with us at such a moment, Erskine?" |
| 4719 | Tell me, shall I write to Clara for the prize, or will you receive it from her own hands?" |
| 4719 | Tell me, you villain, what have you to say to these proofs of your treachery? |
| 4719 | Then springing suddenly up in his bed.--"Morrison, where are my clothes? |
| 4719 | To whom can you have pledged yourself, and for what, unless it be to some secret enemy without the walls? |
| 4719 | Was any allusion made to a change of dress before they left the fort?" |
| 4719 | Well, Johnstone, my brave Scot, ready for another skirmish?" |
| 4719 | What but disunion could follow this melancholy catastrophe? |
| 4719 | What matter would it be if ye had all been scalped?" |
| 4719 | What mean you, man, by this rhodomontade? |
| 4719 | What more probable, therefore, than that this stranger is at once the cause and the agent of his abduction?" |
| 4719 | What say you, my friend? |
| 4719 | What would you more?" |
| 4719 | Where is my son, sir? |
| 4719 | Where is the Indian who fired at us just now? |
| 4719 | Where, where shall I hide myself?" |
| 4719 | Who is the subaltern of the guard?" |
| 4719 | Who is there to prove the man he has just described was the same who aimed at Captain de Haldimar''s life at Quebec?" |
| 4719 | Who the divil ever heard of the officer wearing ammunition shoes?" |
| 4719 | Why stand you there gazing upon the common, as if the victim of your murderous aim was rising from his bloody couch, to reproach you with his death? |
| 4719 | Will you please to try some?" |
| 4719 | Wiseacre?" |
| 4719 | and did you notice the eagerness with which he enquired if I thought I had hit him? |
| 4719 | and have the Indians, in reality, turned your brains with fear?" |
| 4719 | and how comes he to be clad in the uniform of one of our officers? |
| 4719 | and how is it we find you leagued with our enemies?" |
| 4719 | and if so, can you produce it, or say where it is to be found?" |
| 4719 | and the first mortar that sent the howling devils flying in air like so many Will- o''the- wisps, who placed that, Wentworth?" |
| 4719 | and whither are we now going? |
| 4719 | are the officers all present?" |
| 4719 | are ye all mad? |
| 4719 | are you inclined to forward my suit; and if so, is there any chance for me, think you, with herself?" |
| 4719 | can it be true-- and is it really not De Haldimar whom I have shot?" |
| 4719 | he sternly demanded of the sergeant;"why is this halt without my orders, and how comes the body here?" |
| 4719 | or have you already murdered him, as you did his servant? |
| 4719 | or was he in reality an Indian?" |
| 4719 | shouted the latter in a fierce and powerful voice, and in the purest English accent;"hear you the curse and prophecy of this heart- broken woman? |
| 4719 | what have you learnt connected with his disappearance?" |
| 4719 | where are Charles de Haldimar and Sir Everard Valletort?" |
| 4719 | why should Halloway be taken out for the purpose? |
| 4720 | And do the great chiefs of the Shawanees, and the great chiefs of the Delawares, and the great chiefs of the other nations, ask for peace also? |
| 4720 | And what may that promise be? |
| 4720 | And who is he, my good Mullins? |
| 4720 | But what sudden movement is that within the ruin? |
| 4720 | But where are his proofs? |
| 4720 | But why may I not follow your honour? |
| 4720 | Did you not hear a noise? |
| 4720 | Do you think me a fool, Captain de Haldimar,he observed, sneeringly,"that you expect so paltry a tale to be palmed successfully on my understanding? |
| 4720 | Does it make his heart sick to look upon the scalp of a great chief? |
| 4720 | Does my brother feel pain? |
| 4720 | Does the great chief of the Ottawas see the big thunder of the Saganaw? |
| 4720 | Does the great chief of the Ottawas, then, seek for peace in his heart at length? |
| 4720 | Hark, hear you not the exulting yellings of the monsters? 4720 How is this, Frederick?--Where, then, is Captain Baynton? |
| 4720 | How is this? 4720 Is it for a boy,"he fiercely asked,"whose eyes know not yet the colour of blood, to judge of the enemies that fall by the tomahawk of Wacousta? |
| 4720 | Is the gate of the Saganaw open? |
| 4720 | Is the horrid massacre not finished yet? 4720 Is there a man-- are there any ten men, even with Governor de Haldimar at their head, who will be bold enough to attempt it?" |
| 4720 | Oh, Captain Baynton, where are we? |
| 4720 | Oh, Captain Baynton,murmured the fainting girl, her whole soul sinking within her, as she gazed shudderingly on his person,"is there no hope for us? |
| 4720 | Speak truly, was SHE not the traitress who conducted you here? |
| 4720 | The Ottawa chief says well,returned the governor;"but will the pale friend of the Ottawa come also to take his seat in the council hall? |
| 4720 | Think you, Captain Blessington,he proudly retorted,"there is an officer in the fort who should dare to taunt me with my feelings as you have done? |
| 4720 | This is evidently the suggestion of some European,observed Major Blackwater;"for how should he understand any thing of the nature of a white flag? |
| 4720 | Was the Saganaw not right, when he said the Ottawa came with guile in his heart, and with a lie upon his lips? 4720 What mean you, Frederick?" |
| 4720 | What says the great chief of the Ottawas now? |
| 4720 | What says the smooth face of the Ottawas now? |
| 4720 | What the devil have you been about all this time, Francois? |
| 4720 | What thinks the great chief of the Ottawas now? |
| 4720 | When will the Ottawa and the other chiefs come again? |
| 4720 | Where is it?--what have you done with it? |
| 4720 | Where?--whose ghost?--what ghost?--what do you mean, Jack? |
| 4720 | Who knows what ambuscade the she- divil may not lade your honour into; and thin who will you have to bring you out of it? |
| 4720 | Why come they now, then, to ask for peace? |
| 4720 | Why did the Saganaw come into the country of the red skins? |
| 4720 | Why did they take our hunting grounds from us? 4720 Why persevere in viewing only the more sombre side of the picture?" |
| 4720 | Why then were you there in this disguise?--and who is he,again holding up the bloody scalp,"whom I have despoiled of this?" |
| 4720 | Why this delay, Francois? 4720 Why what the devil''s the matter with you now?" |
| 4720 | Ah, Blessington, why was not this all? |
| 4720 | But if the great chief meant to be friendly, why did he declare war after smoking the pipe of peace with the Saganaw? |
| 4720 | But what do I say? |
| 4720 | But what for do you tink so? |
| 4720 | Clara, that blush declares you guilty.--But, who have we here? |
| 4720 | Could this be a refinement of his treachery? |
| 4720 | Do you not believe me?" |
| 4720 | Do you not think there was, Valletort?" |
| 4720 | Does he recollect the terrible chase of the pale face by the friend of the Ottawa? |
| 4720 | Does my father hear?" |
| 4720 | Does my father hear?" |
| 4720 | Does my father hear?" |
| 4720 | Does my father recollect the bridge on which he killed his young warrior? |
| 4720 | Does the Ottawa hear?" |
| 4720 | Has she shared the fate of all? |
| 4720 | Has your honour secured the pistols?" |
| 4720 | Hear you not the blood- hounds on their scent?" |
| 4720 | His young men has found them, then; or how could he know they were spies?" |
| 4720 | How could the Ottawa go with deceit upon his lips, when his words were truth?" |
| 4720 | How do you account for it?" |
| 4720 | I know how deeply you love your father and your brothers, but do these alone occupy your attention? |
| 4720 | Is his voice still sick, that he can not come; or has the great chief of the Ottawas forgotten to tell him?" |
| 4720 | Is it then so very extraordinary an attachment should have been the consequence? |
| 4720 | Is not the Ottawa right?" |
| 4720 | Is there not a certain friend of Charles whom you have some little curiosity to see also?" |
| 4720 | Oh, whither would you go?" |
| 4720 | See you yon theatre of death?" |
| 4720 | She paused a moment, and then abruptly demanded,"Where is that pale girl now?" |
| 4720 | Speak, what have you heard?" |
| 4720 | Tell me, then, as you hope for mercy, have you taken that oath only that you might the more securely betray us to our enemies? |
| 4720 | Then, after a short pause, and in a voice of tender but exquisite anguish,"Clara, my beloved sister, do you not know me? |
| 4720 | Well, will you believe what I have to add? |
| 4720 | What connection have you with them at this moment? |
| 4720 | What does the Ottawa mean?" |
| 4720 | What has become of her?" |
| 4720 | What says the Ottawa? |
| 4720 | What says the great chief of the Ottawas?" |
| 4720 | What says the red girl? |
| 4720 | Where is Madeline? |
| 4720 | Where is he, Mullins? |
| 4720 | Who the devil is to see you in the uniform, unless it be Halloway?" |
| 4720 | Why did he destroy the wigwams of the settlers, and carry off the scalps even of their weak women and children? |
| 4720 | Why have they strong places encircling the country of the Indians, like a belt of wampum round the waist of a warrior?" |
| 4720 | Will he enter? |
| 4720 | Would my father know why he has become a chief of the Ottawas?" |
| 4720 | You understand me, Charles? |
| 4720 | and am I the sport of my own delusive fancy?--Do you not see it NOW?" |
| 4720 | and be balked of the chance of my just revenge? |
| 4720 | and how came you here?" |
| 4720 | and that they are not always on the watch to prevent them?" |
| 4720 | and was he really ignorant of the existence of the danger which threatened them? |
| 4720 | and what has the pale warrior, the friend of the Ottawa, to do with it?" |
| 4720 | and who is HE who stood looking through that window not ten minutes since?" |
| 4720 | dear Miss de Haldimar, do you not know me?" |
| 4720 | discernment?) |
| 4720 | exclaimed the youth, as he clasped his trembling and scarcely conscious burden to his chest,"Almighty God, where is she?" |
| 4720 | from the fort, when I could be so much better employed in guarding your honour from harm? |
| 4720 | growled the boatswain, addressing the sailor;"how can the stranger keep the bow of his craft on, and grapple at the same time? |
| 4720 | he asked;"and when will their warriors play at ball upon the common, that the Saganaw may see them and be amused?" |
| 4720 | he exclaimed aloud, and unable longer to check the ebullition of his feelings,--"what means this?--Is my brain turned? |
| 4720 | he repeated, while his right hand played convulsively with the handle of his tomahawk;"is it for a De Haldimar to taunt me with ignominy? |
| 4720 | he said fiercely to the major:--"how is this? |
| 4720 | hear you the cry of my wolf- dog?" |
| 4720 | must we die?" |
| 4720 | or have you reason to suppose her life has been spared?" |
| 4720 | resumed the governor;"or is he come to the strong hold of Detroit, as he went to the other strong holds, with deceit on his lips?" |
| 4720 | urged his companion, in the same almost inaudible whisper,"what sound was that?" |
| 4720 | what can this mean?" |
| 4720 | what means this disguise? |
| 4720 | where indeed is she?" |
| 4720 | where is my cousin? |
| 4720 | which the devil way does the wind blow now?" |
| 4720 | why not start directly?" |
| 4911 | And of the lady who is with him? |
| 4911 | And to what do these letters bear resemblance? |
| 4911 | And wherefore thus carefully wrapped up? |
| 4911 | And your father''s name was Clayton? |
| 4911 | Any artillery, colonel? |
| 4911 | Are ye scared at another ghost, and be damned to you, that ye keep groaning there after that fashion? |
| 4911 | But shall we not be seen by our enemies? |
| 4911 | But the name,pursued De Haldimar;"how are we to separate the identity of the packets, when we recur to that name of''Reginald?''" |
| 4911 | But what do you propose that the swimmer and climber should do, Blessington? |
| 4911 | Ca n''t the poor fat devil of a Canadian snooze a bit in his hammock, without putting you so completely out of your reckoning? |
| 4911 | Charles, Charles, is this your promise to me? |
| 4911 | Cornish!--Cornish, did you say? |
| 4911 | Did my injuries end here? |
| 4911 | Did n''t you hear it then? 4911 Do you mean, then,"eagerly returned the governor,"that if the mere mode of your death be changed, my son shall be restored?" |
| 4911 | Do you mean,resumed the colonel,"that a request from yourself to the Ottawa chief will obtain the liberation of my son?" |
| 4911 | Do you see any prisoners?--Are any of our friends among them? |
| 4911 | Ellen Halloway!--who calls Ellen Halloway? |
| 4911 | Ellen, woman, again I ask you where he came from? 4911 Gentle, said you?" |
| 4911 | Has my father ever made any allusion to that packet since? |
| 4911 | How acted my brother officers, when, previously to the trial, I alluded to the damnable treachery of your father? 4911 How is the message to be conveyed?" |
| 4911 | I do;--what mean you? |
| 4911 | Is this the self- command you pledged yourself to exercise? 4911 Lying concealed, and ready, no doubt, to give the canoes a warm reception,"observed Lieutenant Johnstone;"but where can our friends be? |
| 4911 | On what mission are you here, if it be not to intrude unwarrantably on a parent''s privacy? |
| 4911 | The portrait, Charles; what have you done with the portrait? |
| 4911 | Well, Mullins, what now? |
| 4911 | Well, what success? |
| 4911 | What can Danvers be about? 4911 What have you here, Mitchell?" |
| 4911 | What mean you, fierce, unpitying man? |
| 4911 | What now, man?--whom have you challenged? |
| 4911 | What of him?--who was he? |
| 4911 | What pledge have we of the fact? 4911 What think you of the fact of Halloway being the nephew of this extraordinary man, and both of high family?" |
| 4911 | What were the charges preferred against me? |
| 4911 | What, again, Leslie? |
| 4911 | What, free your hands, and thus afford you a chance of escape? |
| 4911 | Where did you know him?--Whence came he? |
| 4911 | Where the devil can Danvers have hid all his crew? |
| 4911 | Where, in what part? |
| 4911 | Who has fallen? |
| 4911 | Who knows but it may be our big friend, come to pay us a visit again? 4911 Who shall announce the intelligence to his sister?" |
| 4911 | Why does the girl refuse to eat? |
| 4911 | Why does the girl refuse to eat? |
| 4911 | Why, what the devil''s the matter with you now, Jack? |
| 4911 | Will you believe, Blessington, that that man, whose enmity to our colonel seems almost devilish, was once an officer in this very regiment? |
| 4911 | Will you permit me to examine the portrait and envelopes, Colonel? |
| 4911 | And how could it be otherwise, since I was the first, beside her father, she had ever seen or recollected to have seen? |
| 4911 | And would he have done this, had he had reason to believe in the existence of a criminal love for him who evidently was his mortal foe? |
| 4911 | Are you sure no inducement of private curiosity was mixed up with the discharge of your duty, that you entered thus unannounced? |
| 4911 | Besides, even were her cruellest fears to be realised, what could await her worse than the past? |
| 4911 | But how was the report which had reached their ears to be accounted for? |
| 4911 | But what do I say?" |
| 4911 | But what have we here?" |
| 4911 | But what of Frederick and Madeline de Haldimar? |
| 4911 | But who may resist the destiny that presides over him from the cradle to the grave? |
| 4911 | But why do you ask?" |
| 4911 | But, what became of that unfortunate creature?--was she brought in?" |
| 4911 | Ca n''t you try and tickle him with the bayonet, any of you fellows, and see whether he is made of flesh and blood?" |
| 4911 | Clara de Haldimar, do you understand me now?" |
| 4911 | Could Clara,--could his cousin-- could his brother-- could his friend be on board? |
| 4911 | Could he, in any way, be implicated with his mother? |
| 4911 | Could it be possible this was the same being alluded to by his father? |
| 4911 | Did I not tell you,"he continued, in mockery,"that, if my hands were but free, I would give you a specimen of my progress in Indian acquirements?" |
| 4911 | Did he ever express such to you?" |
| 4911 | Do n''t you see you''re hugging the weather shore?" |
| 4911 | Erskine, Blessington, see you not who is behind me? |
| 4911 | Have you seen the letters, then?" |
| 4911 | Hope you then to stipulate for the preservation of a life every way forfeited to the offended justice of your country? |
| 4911 | How came this? |
| 4911 | How felt-- how acted Colonel de Haldimar throughout this brief but terrible scene? |
| 4911 | How,"pursued Wacousta, with bitter energy,"shall I express the deep loathing I felt for those children? |
| 4911 | If I yield her shall I live?" |
| 4911 | In what, moreover, originated his triumphant expression of feature, when, on that occasion, he reminded him that HIS name was not Reginald? |
| 4911 | Is the colonel apprised of the dreadful truth, do you know?" |
| 4911 | It evidently could only have been produced by the discharge of a cannon; and if so, where could the Indians have procured it? |
| 4911 | It is for the strongest, however, to propose his terms.--If I restore this girl to life, will you pledge yourself to mine?" |
| 4911 | Lawson?" |
| 4911 | May I not ask your hand?" |
| 4911 | Mr. Lawson, quick to the governor, and report that Captain de Haldimar is here: with whom shall he say?" |
| 4911 | My nephew saved the life of your brother at the hazard of his own; and how has he been rewarded for the generous deed? |
| 4911 | Not playing the eaves- dropper, surely; and yet, if he meant to have picked off a sentinel, what was to have prevented him from doing it sooner?" |
| 4911 | Speak; who are you? |
| 4911 | Tell me,"he anxiously pursued,"was there a portrait enclosed with the letters?" |
| 4911 | Then turning to the terrified girl,--"You ask, Clara de Haldimar, where you are? |
| 4911 | Think you that he will see me hanged up like a dog, and fail to avenge my disgraceful death?" |
| 4911 | To what county did he belong?" |
| 4911 | Was the family seat called Morton Castle?" |
| 4911 | What faith can we repose in the word of a fiend, whose brutal vengeance has already sacrificed the gentlest life that ever animated human clay?" |
| 4911 | What had made him the enemy of his family? |
| 4911 | What mean you, woman?--What know you of Reginald Morton?" |
| 4911 | What pledge have you to offer that my son will be restored?" |
| 4911 | What possible result can it produce, but an utter prostration of every moral and physical energy? |
| 4911 | What say you, Reginald Morton, that you should not be convicted in the death that awaits the traitor?" |
| 4911 | What was it but destiny that whispered to me what I had seen was the face of a woman? |
| 4911 | What were the contents of the packet you received from poor Halloway previous to his execution? |
| 4911 | What, Colonel de Haldimar afraid to liberate an unarmed prisoner, hemmed in by a forest of bayonets? |
| 4911 | When? |
| 4911 | Who blighted my fair name, and cast me forth an alien in the land of my forefathers? |
| 4911 | Who did all this? |
| 4911 | Who turned the generous current of my blood into a river of overflowing gall? |
| 4911 | Who was my prosecutor? |
| 4911 | Who, in a word, cut me off from every joy that existence can impart to man? |
| 4911 | Who, then, was this Reginald? |
| 4911 | Why does he not either open his fire, or crowd sail and away from them?" |
| 4911 | Why have been so energetic in his caution not to suffer a taint of impurity to attach to her memory? |
| 4911 | Why should he have supposed the possibility of such impression, unless there had been sufficient cause for it? |
| 4911 | Why, too, had he evinced so much anxiety to remove from his mind all unfavourable impressions in regard to his mother? |
| 4911 | Yet how are we to get there? |
| 4911 | You understand me?" |
| 4911 | and be scalped in the act? |
| 4911 | and he glanced sorrowfully at the corpse,"why was our success to be embittered by so great a sacrifice?" |
| 4911 | and how came the ghost on board of the canoe?" |
| 4911 | and in whose possession are they now?" |
| 4911 | and was the latter, then, aware of the connection?" |
| 4911 | and where and how had originated his father''s connection with so extraordinary and so savage a being? |
| 4911 | asked Sir Everard;"and will they not be on the watch for our movements, and intercept our retreat?" |
| 4911 | aspirated the sinking Clara, as she turned her streaming eyes to heaven;"can it be that the human heart can undergo such change? |
| 4911 | can it be possible? |
| 4911 | can we not manage to make that, flag serve as his own winding sheet?" |
| 4911 | do you believe me now?" |
| 4911 | do you doubt me still?" |
| 4911 | groaned Wacousta, in fierce anguish of spirit,"who shall expound the complex riddle of thy versatile nature? |
| 4911 | he exclaimed with almost frantic energy of passion:"do I then press you once more in madness to my doting heart? |
| 4911 | is there no one to save me?--can nothing touch your stubborn heart?" |
| 4911 | laughed Wacousta in bitter scorn;"who is there of all your accursed regiment who will dare to take him alive?" |
| 4911 | presumptuous renegade, is this the deep game you have in view? |
| 4911 | pursued Wacousta, again striking his brow violently with his hand,--"why is it that I ever feel thus unmanned while recurring to those letters? |
| 4911 | said Captain Erskine,"are the two best companies of the regiment to be kept at bay by a single desperado? |
| 4911 | said the officer, whose heart, eye, and ear were painfully on the alert,"what rustling is that we hear overhead?" |
| 4911 | said the warrior, enquiringly;"Henry Clayton, if I recollect aright?" |
| 4911 | what could I do, laden with such a trust, and pursued, without the power of defence, by such an enemy? |
| 4911 | what mean those sounds?" |
| 4911 | what new movement is that on the part of the savages?" |
| 4911 | what the hell''s the matter with the man now?" |
| 4911 | what was that?" |
| 4911 | what was that?" |
| 4911 | where am I, that I hear the name of my sainted mother thus familiarly pronounced?" |
| 4911 | where am I? |
| 4911 | where am I?" |
| 4911 | where is Clara? |
| 4911 | where is my bride?" |
| 4911 | where is she? |
| 4911 | who names my father?" |
| 4911 | who would have ever thought a time would come when both my vengeance and my love would be gratified to the utmost? |
| 29223 | A solemn, dreadful pompous Shew: Why have I''scap''d their Swords and liv''d to see it? |
| 29223 | A wretched Sight indeed;[_ Going towards them._ Oh, my Monelia; has thy Spirit fled? |
| 29223 | Am I return''d full flush''d with Hopes of Joy, With all the Honours Victory can give, To see thee thus? |
| 29223 | And can this be-- Can Philip be so false? |
| 29223 | And face me with your savage guilty Eye? |
| 29223 | And is this all? |
| 29223 | And kill''d the Indians for Revenge and Plunder? |
| 29223 | And the fierce Panther fawn upon his Mate? |
| 29223 | Are all the Chiefs and Warriors here assembled, That we expect to honour this Day''s Council? |
| 29223 | Are they not Men? |
| 29223 | Are they not here? |
| 29223 | Are we awake? |
| 29223 | Are you experienc''d in this kind of Trade? |
| 29223 | Are you sincere, or do you feign this Speech? |
| 29223 | Are you well charg''d? |
| 29223 | Art thou no more? |
| 29223 | As how, dear Philip? |
| 29223 | Base false Deceiver, what could you intend? |
| 29223 | But how does this affect our present Purpose? |
| 29223 | But should you fail in these Attempts, and he Prove obstinately fix''d against the War, Where''s then Monelia? |
| 29223 | But what Returns are these they''ve left behind? |
| 29223 | But why so much of Mischiefs that may happen? |
| 29223 | But will not many Indian Chiefs refuse To join the Lists, and hold themselves oblig''d T''assist the Foe when hardly press''d by us? |
| 29223 | But will your Father be convinc''d of this? |
| 29223 | But, Honnyman, d''ye think this is not Murder? |
| 29223 | Ca n''t you avoid them? |
| 29223 | Can you not feel some tender Passion move, When you behold the Innocent distress''d? |
| 29223 | Colonel Cockum, what d''they call you? |
| 29223 | Colonel, they are never worth our minding, What can they do against our Bombs and Cannon? |
| 29223 | Did you not know she was King Hendrick''s Daughter? |
| 29223 | Did you not know that she was not your Wife? |
| 29223 | Did your King tell you thus to treat the Indians? |
| 29223 | Do not the Wolves defend and help their Fellows, The poisonous Serpent feed her hissing Brood, And open wide her Mouth for their Protection? |
| 29223 | Do you love Indians better than us white Men? |
| 29223 | Do you still live to breathe and see the Sun? |
| 29223 | Does not the Torrent rush with growing Speed, And hurry us to the same wretched End? |
| 29223 | Does not the ravenous Tyger feed her Young? |
| 29223 | Does she not merit Love From all who see her move, or hear her speak? |
| 29223 | Does this make you dance? |
| 29223 | Doubt you the Truth of this my Declaration? |
| 29223 | Dwells there such Baseness in a Brother''s Heart? |
| 29223 | Five Pounds? |
| 29223 | For they''re possess''d of all the Country round, Or whence Supplies of Implements for War? |
| 29223 | For what avails all that the World can give? |
| 29223 | God send the Day that puts them all to sleep, Come, will you crack a Bottle at my Tent? |
| 29223 | Has Fate exhausted all her Stores of Wrath, Or has she other Vengeance in reserve? |
| 29223 | Has he not sped? |
| 29223 | Has ill befell my Brother? |
| 29223 | Have I delay''d too long? |
| 29223 | Have I not vow''d my Love to you, Monelia, And open''d all the Weakness of my Heart? |
| 29223 | Have I then found thee, thou false hearted Traitor? |
| 29223 | Have you not told us, Death, and Fire, and Hell Await those who are incontinent, Or dare to violate the Rites of Wedlock? |
| 29223 | Have you not told us, holy Men like you Are by the Gods forbid all fleshly Converse? |
| 29223 | Here am I: What would you of me? |
| 29223 | Here, you Blood- hunter, have you lost your Feeling? |
| 29223 | Hold, thou mad Tyger-- What Attempt is this? |
| 29223 | How could I think to murder was no Sin? |
| 29223 | How much you ask per Quart for this strong Rum? |
| 29223 | How will the good King hear the sad Report? |
| 29223 | How will the old King and his Hunters smile To see us loaded with the fatt''ning Prey, And joyously relate their own Adventures? |
| 29223 | How would their Bosoms glow with patriot Shame, To see their Offspring so unlike themselves? |
| 29223 | I saw him draw the bloody Knife from her, And, starting, ask''d him, Why, or what he meant? |
| 29223 | I think our Hunters ought to be reveng''d; Their Bodies are found torn by rav''nous Beasts, But who doubts they were kill''d by Englishmen? |
| 29223 | If you''ve some good, why do n''t you send them here? |
| 29223 | In Love with whom? |
| 29223 | Is Torax yet alive? |
| 29223 | Is all rank Cowardice but Fire and Fury? |
| 29223 | Is any Mischief here? |
| 29223 | Is he so vile a Man? |
| 29223 | Is it all womanish to re- consider And weigh the Consequences of our Actions, Before we desperately rush upon them? |
| 29223 | Is it because I take them thus unguarded? |
| 29223 | Is it because Monelia is a Woman? |
| 29223 | Is it because my Brother''s Charmer dies? |
| 29223 | Is not this better than an Hour''s Diversion, To hear their Groans, and Plaints, and piteous Cries? |
| 29223 | Is there no Courage in delib''rate Wisdom? |
| 29223 | Is there no secret Pity in your Minds? |
| 29223 | Is there such Perfidy among Mankind? |
| 29223 | Is there the Half, think you? |
| 29223 | Is this my Triumph after Victory? |
| 29223 | Is this our Wedding? |
| 29223 | Is this the fatal Period of our Love? |
| 29223 | Is this, is this my Welcome? |
| 29223 | Jack, is the Rum prepar''d as I commanded? |
| 29223 | King Hendrick''s Daughter? |
| 29223 | Know you the Principles by which it prospers, And how to make it lucrative and safe? |
| 29223 | Know you whose Country you are in? |
| 29223 | Learn if it shall prosper, Or will it end in Infamy and Shame? |
| 29223 | May we believe, or is this all a Dream? |
| 29223 | Must I put on the Face of Joy or Grief? |
| 29223 | Must these dear Innocents be put to Tortures, Or dash''d to Death, and share our wretched Fate? |
| 29223 | No Contradiction to your great Design; But will not such Proceeding injure us? |
| 29223 | No, they were murdered, slyly, basely shot, And who that has a Heart does not resent it? |
| 29223 | Not a Sin to cheat an Indian, say you? |
| 29223 | Oh, charming Princess, art thou gone for ever? |
| 29223 | Oh, wherefore, wherefore, wherefore do I live: Monelia is not-- What''s the World to me? |
| 29223 | Or Beaver Skins, d''ye think? |
| 29223 | Or Sacrifice her Children to our Vengeance? |
| 29223 | Or cherishes young Vipers in his Bosom? |
| 29223 | Or have some slender Hope that she still liv''d? |
| 29223 | Or is it Juggling, Fascination all? |
| 29223 | Or is the Meaning still conceal''d from Man, And only known to Genii and the Gods? |
| 29223 | Or left young Tygers quiet in their Den? |
| 29223 | Or shall I shock her with the News of War? |
| 29223 | Or what avails his flowing Goodness to us? |
| 29223 | Or would you have me swear some Christian Oath? |
| 29223 | Our Father''s late Behaviour and Discourse Unite to raise Suspicions in my Mind Of his Designs? |
| 29223 | Philip, Philip!--Where is Philip gone? |
| 29223 | Philip, are you come? |
| 29223 | Present, and pop one down? |
| 29223 | Say you such Things to us, That you alone may revel in these Pleasures? |
| 29223 | Say you that Torax then is fond of War? |
| 29223 | Seem unconcern''d or full of Doubts and Fears? |
| 29223 | Shall I begin with my old Tale of Love? |
| 29223 | Shall holy Perfidy and seeming Lies Destroy our Purpose, sink us into Cowards? |
| 29223 | Shall we fear A Lion chain''d, or in another World? |
| 29223 | Shall we then, to revenge your Countrymen, To recompense a Wrong by one committed, Rouse all to Arms, and make a general Slaughter? |
| 29223 | Should War be wag''d, what Discords may we fear Among ourselves? |
| 29223 | Slain by each other''s Hands, Or what is worse; or by the Air you breath''d? |
| 29223 | So much Dissimulation in the Earth? |
| 29223 | So, Murphey, you are come to try your Fortune Among the Savages in this wild Desart? |
| 29223 | So, what you trade with Indians here to- day? |
| 29223 | Stop: Are we not unwise to kill this Woman? |
| 29223 | That I and my dear Babes were by you brought To this Extreme of Wretchedness and Woe? |
| 29223 | That your God''s Mother liv''d and died a Virgin, And thereby set Example to her Sex? |
| 29223 | The English are not come? |
| 29223 | The French are all subdued, But who are in their Stead become our Lords? |
| 29223 | The Rum? |
| 29223 | The Torrent rises, and the Tempest blows; Where will this rough, rude Storm of Ruin end? |
| 29223 | The running Streams and shady Forests where? |
| 29223 | Then it''s a Perquisite belongs to us? |
| 29223 | These smother''d Groans and stifled half- drawn Sighs; Does it offend that I''ve return''d in Triumph? |
| 29223 | Think you, because you have subdu''d the French, That Indians too are now become your Slaves? |
| 29223 | To gain the Mohawk Princess to my Wishes? |
| 29223 | Unhappy Princes; this your wretched End; Your Country''s Hopes and your fond Father''s Joy; Are you no more? |
| 29223 | We''ve heard the Doctrine; what''s the Application? |
| 29223 | What Foe is here? |
| 29223 | What Safety shall I have when you are gone? |
| 29223 | What Shouting do I hear? |
| 29223 | What can she more? |
| 29223 | What can you mean? |
| 29223 | What crimson Floods are yet to drench the Earth? |
| 29223 | What do I see? |
| 29223 | What do you fear? |
| 29223 | What do you here? |
| 29223 | What has been your Success? |
| 29223 | What hast thou heard that seems to threaten this, Or is it idle Fancy and Conjectures? |
| 29223 | What have you done? |
| 29223 | What have you got to part with to the Indians? |
| 29223 | What if I have a Value for Monelia, Is it a Crime? |
| 29223 | What if''tis Peace? |
| 29223 | What is it shakes my firm and fix''d Resolve? |
| 29223 | What is the End? |
| 29223 | What is the Greatness of their King to us? |
| 29223 | What is your Price for Beaver Skins per Pound? |
| 29223 | What matters that? |
| 29223 | What may your great and secret Purpose be, That thus requires Concealment in its Birth? |
| 29223 | What means all this? |
| 29223 | What means this Gloom I see in every Face? |
| 29223 | What means this Outcry, Noise, and Tumult here? |
| 29223 | What means your Cry? |
| 29223 | What must I act? |
| 29223 | What new- form''d Mischiefs hover in the Air, And point their Stings at this devoted Head? |
| 29223 | What of his Strength or Wisdom? |
| 29223 | What shall we do with these damn''d bawling Indians? |
| 29223 | What then is to be done? |
| 29223 | What then? |
| 29223 | What will you do? |
| 29223 | What would the King of England do with Wampum? |
| 29223 | What-- did I not hear a Groan? |
| 29223 | When will this Torment end? |
| 29223 | Whence? |
| 29223 | Where are we now? |
| 29223 | Where did they fly? |
| 29223 | Where is our Trade and Commerce to be carry''d? |
| 29223 | Where is your Brother? |
| 29223 | Where next, Monelia, shall I bend my Arm To heal this Discord, this Disorder still, And bring the Chaos Universe to Form? |
| 29223 | Where shall we hide their savage Carcases? |
| 29223 | Where was my Brother, not to take Revenge? |
| 29223 | Where will the Ravage stop? |
| 29223 | Where will the Slaughter of the Species end? |
| 29223 | Which is''t you call Five Pound? |
| 29223 | Who call it complaisant, polite good Breeding, To say Ten thousand things they do n''t intend, And tell their nearest Friends the basest Falsehood? |
| 29223 | Who ever spar''d a Serpent in the Egg? |
| 29223 | Who is it do n''t prefer a Death in War To this impending Wretchedness and Shame? |
| 29223 | Who is it loves his Country, Friends, or Self, And does not feel Resentment in his Soul? |
| 29223 | Who knows but by pathetic Prayers and Tears Their savage Bosoms may relent towards you, And fix their Vengeance where just Heaven points it? |
| 29223 | Who now can doubt the Justice of our Cause, Or this Man''s Mission from the King above, And that we ought to follow his Commands? |
| 29223 | Who rarely speak the Meaning of their Hearts? |
| 29223 | Who swear and call on Gods when they mean nothing? |
| 29223 | Who were the Murderers? |
| 29223 | Who, what were they? |
| 29223 | Whom see we now? |
| 29223 | Whose Tongues are full of Promises and Vows? |
| 29223 | Whose very Language is a downright Lie? |
| 29223 | Why all this Noise and Shouting? |
| 29223 | Why did you point me to the painful Sight? |
| 29223 | Why do you blame me that I am not dead? |
| 29223 | Why have you let me know Yourself thus guilty in the Eye of Heaven? |
| 29223 | Why have you let me know the solemn Weight Of horrid Guilt that lies upon us all? |
| 29223 | Why have you shown this Shipwreck of my Hopes, And plac''d me in this beating Storm of Woe? |
| 29223 | Why press''d I not upon the fatal Point? |
| 29223 | Why was I told of my Monelia''s Fate? |
| 29223 | Why was you alone? |
| 29223 | Why, do n''t you see the Colonel will not hear you? |
| 29223 | Will they desert their King in such an Hour, When Pity might induce them to protect him? |
| 29223 | Wilt thou not return? |
| 29223 | Would you compare an Indian Prince to those Whose Trade it is to cheat, deceive, and flatter? |
| 29223 | Would you still tempt my Rage, and fire my Soul, Already bent to spill your treacherous Blood? |
| 29223 | Would you the Mohawk Emperor displease, And wage a bloody War, by which you made Him and his num''rous Tribes your certain Foes? |
| 29223 | You, Mr. Englishman, have you got Rum? |
| 29223 | [_ He retreats from them._ Is it their Innocence that shakes my Purpose? |
| 29223 | [_ Noise of MONELIA striving behind the scene._ What Sound is that?--It is Monelia''s Voice; And in Distress-- What Monster gives her Pain? |
| 29223 | [_ Pausing._ Think you they will not spare our dear sweet Babes? |
| 29223 | [_ Pushes him._ What was his Will, Monelia? |
| 29223 | [_ Seizing him._ Are you a Christian Priest? |
| 29223 | [_ They lift him up, and speak to him._ Torax, are you alive? |
| 29223 | and Philip call''d? |
| 29223 | d''ye think this right? |
| 29223 | hav''n''t they a Right to Justice As well as we, though savage in their Manners? |
| 29223 | have I not said enough? |
| 29223 | have you found the Secret of my Dream, By all your Cries, and Howls, and Sweats, and Prayers? |
| 29223 | hold your noisy cursed Nonsense; I''ve heard enough of it; what is it to me? |
| 29223 | how shall I act my Part? |
| 29223 | or are our Ears deceiv''d? |
| 29223 | or how shall I accost her? |
| 29223 | or where did they escape? |
| 29223 | or which Way must I turn? |
| 29223 | the Ruin where? |
| 29223 | what may we hope? |
| 29223 | what''s that? |
| 29223 | where is Chekitan? |
| 29223 | where their pleasant Haunts? |
| 29223 | who ever sent such Trumpery to him? |
| 29223 | you a Colonel, and not command your Men? |
| 29223 | you a great man too? |
| 19223 | ''Is n''t he a guy?'' 19223 All right,"agreed Christie;"but what could be the chap''s object in spying our movements?" |
| 19223 | All right,replied Donald,"I''m ready, and nearly as fit as ever; but have you any hope of beating them off eventually, Christie? |
| 19223 | Am I under your command, Christie? |
| 19223 | Am I, then, Pontiac''s prisoner? |
| 19223 | And Diogenes, I say, where is the tub? |
| 19223 | And Edith was not with him? |
| 19223 | And did you wish for this marriage? |
| 19223 | And if I refuse? |
| 19223 | And is it not, father? |
| 19223 | And leave you, lad? 19223 And now, Mr. Hester, that--""_ Mister_ Hester? |
| 19223 | And the third lady? 19223 And what means the circle of serpents?" |
| 19223 | And will you allow me, as a great favor, to accompany you on this return trip so far as our ways lie together? |
| 19223 | And you, too, and your brothers? |
| 19223 | Are they? |
| 19223 | Are you acquainted with Pontiac, the present war chief of the united tribes? |
| 19223 | Are you going to drown him? |
| 19223 | Are you ill, dear? |
| 19223 | Are you not the daughter of Two Trees, the white- haired major, and is he not the friend of Pontiac? 19223 Are you then taking us to him now?" |
| 19223 | Bullen''s? 19223 But am I not to be allowed to take part in the rescue of my own sister? |
| 19223 | But what is this Metai of which you speak? |
| 19223 | But where have you been lingering all this time? 19223 But why do you not carry this matter to Major Gladwyn, who is in command, instead of to me, who now possess no authority?" |
| 19223 | But why should he be particularly interested in our welfare, more than in that of others? |
| 19223 | Did I not say that I was on the point of throwing myself from yonder cliff to escape the misery of such a thing? |
| 19223 | Did the voice sound at all familiar? |
| 19223 | Did the white- haired chief kill me when I slept in the house of the two trees? |
| 19223 | Did you notice that Sir William addressed your''young savage''as Hester? |
| 19223 | Do I understand you, sir, that this outbreak has already taken place? |
| 19223 | Do you believe this cock- and- bull story, Hester? |
| 19223 | Do you dare insinuate--? |
| 19223 | Do you make a distinction between the two? |
| 19223 | Do you mean my father, Major Hester? |
| 19223 | Do you mean that I am thus suspected? |
| 19223 | Do you mean,demanded Donald, excitedly,"that you know what became of my sister Edith and her companion?" |
| 19223 | Do you really? 19223 Do you recall the capital English of the person who demanded your surrender last night?" |
| 19223 | Do you remember that I mentioned seeing a certain bath- tub in one of the canoes that brought this war- party? |
| 19223 | Do you think he can swim with his feet bound? |
| 19223 | Does my brother of the two- tree house wish to journey through the country of the Ottawas? |
| 19223 | For peace or for war? |
| 19223 | Has Cuyler reached the tort? |
| 19223 | Has any one else seen these things or noted symptoms of uneasiness among the Indians? |
| 19223 | Have the members of this Metai signs and passwords by which they may recognize each other? |
| 19223 | Have we a traitor among us? 19223 Have you chaps really been here twenty- four hours?" |
| 19223 | He knew nothing of her fate? |
| 19223 | Her anxiety then must have been for--"But how did you proceed to make good your promise? |
| 19223 | How could I take my regular morning bath without it? 19223 How did you happen to see all this?" |
| 19223 | How did your father know of our coming, and why did he send you to care for us? |
| 19223 | How should I know? |
| 19223 | How soon? |
| 19223 | How? 19223 I did; but--""Was it not you who demanded the surrender of the post?" |
| 19223 | I wonder how you always manage to find out such things? |
| 19223 | If I leave the post an hour after sunset and walk just beyond the church, will you meet me there and deliver to me your information? |
| 19223 | If you have an important secret to confide, had we not better enter the house? |
| 19223 | Is it a joke? |
| 19223 | Is it a masquerade? |
| 19223 | Is it not exquisite, aunty? |
| 19223 | Is n''t he lovely, though? |
| 19223 | Is she not the daughter of Pontiac? |
| 19223 | Is that the one? |
| 19223 | Is that the place, Atoka? |
| 19223 | Is there any chance of doing it? |
| 19223 | It was that of an Englishman, though? |
| 19223 | Laughing as usual, I suppose? |
| 19223 | Like civilized beings, my dear? |
| 19223 | Many years have passed, and there has been much fighting since that time; but surely my brother has not forgotten Songa the Ottawa? |
| 19223 | May I ask if this is Ensign Hester? |
| 19223 | My sister, say you? 19223 Oh you did, did you?" |
| 19223 | Set you adrift in your tub? |
| 19223 | So that is the secret of Pontiac''s wide- spread influence? 19223 Then you must be a son of the great chief?" |
| 19223 | Then you will surrender? |
| 19223 | Was he not by birth a warrior who could be naught but brave? 19223 Well, what became of you after that?" |
| 19223 | Well,cried the voice, impatiently,"do you agree?" |
| 19223 | What did he answer? |
| 19223 | What did you do under the tent? |
| 19223 | What do you make of the case? |
| 19223 | What do you mean? 19223 What do you propose to do?" |
| 19223 | What do you think he is? |
| 19223 | What does it mean? 19223 What does it mean?" |
| 19223 | What happened to divert her from the absurdity of your masquerade? |
| 19223 | What is his name, and where may he be found? |
| 19223 | What is it, Ah- mo? |
| 19223 | What is this totem? |
| 19223 | What is wanted? |
| 19223 | What means this unique headgear? |
| 19223 | What rascal? 19223 What reason could the beggars have had for lugging it off? |
| 19223 | What task? |
| 19223 | What will my brother give him to help the healing of his wounds? |
| 19223 | What? |
| 19223 | What? |
| 19223 | What? |
| 19223 | When did you ever sleep in Tawtry House? 19223 When?" |
| 19223 | Where, then, are you going? |
| 19223 | Who can tell? 19223 Who goes there?" |
| 19223 | Who is it? 19223 Who is she?" |
| 19223 | Who? 19223 Why bring ye dead men to this place?" |
| 19223 | Why ca n''t he sit still and possess his soul in patience, like the rest of us, instead of tramping up and down like the wild beast he looks? |
| 19223 | Why do n''t you earn it, then? |
| 19223 | Why, Diogenes, what are you doing here? |
| 19223 | Why, father, is he not in Detroit? |
| 19223 | Why,demanded Pontiac,"do I see so many of my white brother''s young men standing outside with guns in their hands?" |
| 19223 | Will he pull through, think you? |
| 19223 | Will you come again this evening, before the gates are closed, and bring any further information you may gain during the day? |
| 19223 | Yes, my dear fellow, I understand; but how can I help it? 19223 Yes; but--""Did you not teach him to throw up breastworks and open a mine?" |
| 19223 | You do n''t mean that you propose, unarmed and unaided, to attempt anything so hopeless as that? |
| 19223 | You do n''t mean to say,interrupted the other,"that you were one of the spectators at a scene of torture, and did nothing to prevent it?" |
| 19223 | You know him, then? |
| 19223 | You think, then, that the fort is in danger? |
| 19223 | Am I not of the Totem of the Bear and wearer of the mystic emblem of the Metai? |
| 19223 | Am I to be kept here, a miserable captive, while others do the work that is rightly mine?" |
| 19223 | And I suppose the officers get up dances and receptions and excursions and boating parties, or something of that kind, very often?" |
| 19223 | And you call me''Quickeye''because I caught you peering from the bushes at the Devil''s Hole, do you? |
| 19223 | Are not you a great medicine man in their estimation, and capable of commanding the fire- demon? |
| 19223 | Are they safe?" |
| 19223 | Are you certain he is an Ottawa?" |
| 19223 | Are you certain that you locked it after admitting her?" |
| 19223 | As these two stood hand in hand, the younger said:"Can I not persuade you, father, even at this last moment, to change your mind and accompany us? |
| 19223 | Aubin?" |
| 19223 | But granting that we are able to withstand an attack, are we prepared for a siege?" |
| 19223 | But is this Indian an enemy? |
| 19223 | But tell me, Atoka, was not your sister with two white women on an island not long since?" |
| 19223 | But tell me, since you have seen Edith so recently, is she so good looking as they say? |
| 19223 | But was there no help for him, none at all? |
| 19223 | But what do you propose to do? |
| 19223 | But what should be done with the white medicine man? |
| 19223 | But who was the woman who rescued him so splendidly, and what do you suppose became of her?" |
| 19223 | But you ca n''t for an instant imagine that he had a hand in this outrage?" |
| 19223 | By the way, Ah- mo, who is the present chief of this magic circle? |
| 19223 | By the way, Mr. Cuyler, are there many pretty girls in this forest metropolis?" |
| 19223 | By the way, who was she?" |
| 19223 | Ca n''t we do something toward their rescue, Gladwyn? |
| 19223 | Ca n''t you do something to frustrate their wicked plan? |
| 19223 | Ca n''t you loosen your arms one little bit, aunty?" |
| 19223 | Could I do less than was done by that little child? |
| 19223 | Could he abandon a comrade to such a fate? |
| 19223 | Could he hold out to the bitter end? |
| 19223 | Cuyler?" |
| 19223 | Did n''t Madam Rothsay laugh, too?" |
| 19223 | Did not Frontenac cause an Iroquois warrior to be burned alive in order to terrorize his fellows? |
| 19223 | Did she know that Edith was to be married? |
| 19223 | Do I not know that you came in the canoe with the white medicine man from Oswego? |
| 19223 | Do I not know that you listened outside the open window of the mess- room at Fort Niagara, while the white chiefs talked at night? |
| 19223 | Do I not know that you painted your face, with the thought that the white man was a fool and would no longer recognize you? |
| 19223 | Do n''t you notice a difference between us?" |
| 19223 | Do n''t you remember how highly Madam Rothsay complimented your impersonation of that character? |
| 19223 | Do n''t you remember the fellows at Niagara were talking of her? |
| 19223 | Do n''t you think if we should both scream together that they would hear us?" |
| 19223 | Do not I know all this as well as all the things you have done, and thought of doing? |
| 19223 | Do you know I do n''t think I like you in a red coat, half so well as in buckskin?" |
| 19223 | Do you know if that is true, and if so, what her name really is?" |
| 19223 | Don''you think that maybe Songa has earned a few hours of uninterrupted rest?" |
| 19223 | Every one was in the highest of spirits, and the gloomy forest rang with shouts and laughter; for was not this the last camp? |
| 19223 | Had there not been a familiar ring to the tones? |
| 19223 | Had you challenged him? |
| 19223 | Hast thou not been the son of my heart from the day thy baby arms clasped my neck and saved me from death? |
| 19223 | Have n''t you met him? |
| 19223 | Have you thought out any plan?" |
| 19223 | Hear him?" |
| 19223 | How about the explosion of that bit of rock?" |
| 19223 | How came you here?" |
| 19223 | How can she be?" |
| 19223 | How did she happen to be there? |
| 19223 | How did you happen to think of it?" |
| 19223 | How did you manage it?" |
| 19223 | How long was that fuse? |
| 19223 | How?" |
| 19223 | I remember him well; but what has he to do with this present affair?" |
| 19223 | I-- Hello? |
| 19223 | In the meantime, were they guests or prisoners, and what was to be done with them? |
| 19223 | Instead of answering this question, the young man replied scornfully:--"So you can speak English, can you, you red scoundrel? |
| 19223 | Is it enough?" |
| 19223 | Is it possible?" |
| 19223 | Is she not safe in the fort?" |
| 19223 | Is she safe, Christie?" |
| 19223 | Is she well? |
| 19223 | May I fetch her, father? |
| 19223 | May he not have been removed by the magic of his circle? |
| 19223 | Now, to change the subject, what do you suppose is going on over there?" |
| 19223 | Of course, Bullen, you do n''t intend to do that?" |
| 19223 | Or should he slip into the underbrush, take a great circuit about the camp and make his way to Detroit overland through the trackless forest? |
| 19223 | Orderly, bring me my long range rifle-- will you take this glass, madam, and watch the effect of my shot? |
| 19223 | Rather clever, is it not?" |
| 19223 | Saw you ever a more frightful place than this, or a more deadly situation for an ambuscade?" |
| 19223 | Suddenly some one exclaimed,"What boat is that following so close after you?" |
| 19223 | Suppose he should select hunting- rifles at one hundred paces?" |
| 19223 | Surely you do n''t need to be told who she is?" |
| 19223 | The belle of the evening? |
| 19223 | The girl the general is so taken with? |
| 19223 | The question is, whether or not the Indians mean to attack this post, and whether it is prepared for an attack in case they do?" |
| 19223 | The sensation of the hour? |
| 19223 | They say she once saved him from the stake or something of the kind, and that he has her monogram tattooed on his arm, do n''t you know? |
| 19223 | To what am I indebted for the honor of this early call? |
| 19223 | To what tribe does he belong?" |
| 19223 | Was Edith again to be snatched from him when almost within his reach? |
| 19223 | Was he then to be robbed of the fruits of his arduous journeyings? |
| 19223 | Was not that a sign from the Great Spirit that he wished the stranger to live? |
| 19223 | Were his sister and Madam Rothsay among those who had escaped with Cuyler? |
| 19223 | Were the approaching boats indeed filled with friends come to their relief, or, as in the former case, with victorious savages and dejected captives? |
| 19223 | Were they in pursuit of Cuyler and his handful of fugitives? |
| 19223 | What are they going to do with it? |
| 19223 | What are you chaps doing here? |
| 19223 | What can I do for you?" |
| 19223 | What could he do? |
| 19223 | What do you mean?" |
| 19223 | What do you say, major? |
| 19223 | What for? |
| 19223 | What had become of her? |
| 19223 | What had come over his warriors, that such a thing could be possible? |
| 19223 | What inducements did you offer them?" |
| 19223 | What is your surmise?" |
| 19223 | What will my brother give for her?" |
| 19223 | What would become of Bullen? |
| 19223 | What, then, will my brother give us in his place, that the heaviness of our hearts may be lifted?" |
| 19223 | Where could it have come from? |
| 19223 | Where did they get it? |
| 19223 | Where had she come from? |
| 19223 | Where was she, and by what perils was she surrounded? |
| 19223 | Where? |
| 19223 | Who had taught the Indians this diabolical trick of warfare? |
| 19223 | Who had uttered that cry? |
| 19223 | Why do the English drive my father to war?" |
| 19223 | Why had he not known of her arrival sooner? |
| 19223 | Why had she left them so mysteriously and unkindly on the Muskingum the year before? |
| 19223 | Why not strike for it at that very moment? |
| 19223 | Why, lad, what is it? |
| 19223 | Why?" |
| 19223 | Wo n''t you consider the proposition seriously?" |
| 19223 | Would he ever have a better chance? |
| 19223 | Would he? |
| 19223 | You are near dead with running; what danger threatens?" |
| 19223 | You see--""Were you not with the enemy during the attack on Fort Presque Isle?" |
| 19223 | You would n''t leave them in captivity, would you?" |
| 19223 | You''ll act for me, old man, of course?" |
| 19223 | You, Donald, and you, Ah- mo, my dear girl? |
| 19223 | and did I not see her borne despairingly away in a canoe that is but just lost to sight?" |
| 19223 | and had he not already, as you have just told, saved the life of a chief of the Metai?" |
| 19223 | and what has become of its owner? |
| 19223 | and what treatment does she receive at the hands of Mahng''s ruffians?" |
| 19223 | and why did n''t I see something of it in the boats yesterday? |
| 19223 | and would not the morrow witness the completion of their arduous journey? |
| 19223 | are you crazy? |
| 19223 | cried Donald,"was she not with you on this very spot but a few minutes since? |
| 19223 | eh, Bullen?" |
| 19223 | exclaimed Donald;"when? |
| 19223 | exclaimed one of the officers, who were following this narration with closest attention;"but did you make it good?" |
| 19223 | he added,"Hester is the name of that major duffer whose message to Sir Jeffry caused my delay; I wonder if they can be relations?" |
| 19223 | how could you have imagined such a thing?" |
| 19223 | moaned the elder woman;"what does it all mean? |
| 19223 | or how could I transport the necessities of my toilet so safely and conveniently in any other way?" |
| 19223 | or is it not known to the uninitiated?" |
| 19223 | or is it witchcraft? |
| 19223 | or were they in search of him to avenge his looting of the Wyandot lodges? |
| 19223 | were they on their way to attack Christie in his little fort? |
| 19223 | what can it mean?" |
| 19223 | what''s that? |
| 19223 | where? |
| 19223 | who comes?" |
| 19223 | why did n''t you tell me before?" |
| 19223 | why will your father persist in this horrid war? |
| 19223 | wo n''t I be glad of a breakfast, though? |
| 19223 | you fickle dog, you?" |
| 19223 | you surely do not intend to traverse the wilderness in full fig.?" |
| 6433 | A Frenchman, eh? |
| 6433 | A prisoner, or to trade? |
| 6433 | And Dave? |
| 6433 | And Hector Bergerac? |
| 6433 | And after that? |
| 6433 | And how far to the west do they own the land? |
| 6433 | And how have you been since last we saw you? |
| 6433 | And left there all alone? |
| 6433 | And still you say you are not a spy? 6433 And the stripling, what of him?" |
| 6433 | And then? |
| 6433 | And what about word to fall upon the whites and slay them? |
| 6433 | And what of the plans of the English? |
| 6433 | And what shall be done with him? |
| 6433 | And what think you to do then? |
| 6433 | And where is the white prisoner who was here? |
| 6433 | And who occupy the lands still further westward? |
| 6433 | And yet, what good will it do them to carry me off? |
| 6433 | And you say White Buffalo has gone out again to look for the lost trail? |
| 6433 | And you will tell your father of it? |
| 6433 | Are the men with you young men? |
| 6433 | Are they much of a tribe? |
| 6433 | Are they near here? |
| 6433 | Are ye ready, lads? |
| 6433 | Are you alive? |
| 6433 | Are you alone, Morris? |
| 6433 | Are you badly hurt? |
| 6433 | Are you certain? |
| 6433 | Are you hurt, son? |
| 6433 | Are you ready to start? |
| 6433 | Back again, eh? |
| 6433 | But how did you get away? |
| 6433 | But how would they be able to find such a cave? |
| 6433 | But if he is dead--? |
| 6433 | But if they join with the Injuns? |
| 6433 | But what of that Henry Morris, and that old hunter, Barringford? |
| 6433 | But what will my French friend do with this Morris? |
| 6433 | But when they find it out, what then? |
| 6433 | But where did they take him to? |
| 6433 | But why did n''t he return to the waterfall? |
| 6433 | Ca n''t you see him at all? |
| 6433 | Can I go along? |
| 6433 | Can it be possible I have spent the whole night down here? |
| 6433 | Can they have given up the chase? |
| 6433 | Can we catch them? |
| 6433 | Dave, son, do n''t you think you had better remain with me? |
| 6433 | Dead? 6433 Did Jean Bevoir send you?" |
| 6433 | Did n''t expect nuthin''like this, did you, Dave? |
| 6433 | Did n''t see him? |
| 6433 | Did n''t you say Bevoir was dead? |
| 6433 | Did the Indians at the village see you? |
| 6433 | Did the elk get away? |
| 6433 | Did the man have anything with him besides the babies? |
| 6433 | Did ye git him? |
| 6433 | Did you believe zat? 6433 Did you ever hear of this Flat Nose?" |
| 6433 | Did you find them in the snow? |
| 6433 | Did you go under, Henry? |
| 6433 | Did you have anything to do with the looting of the pack- train? |
| 6433 | Did you recognize any of those who attacked you? |
| 6433 | Did you see any other white people there? |
| 6433 | Do my white brothers know what that means? |
| 6433 | Do n''t want to send them to the poorhouse, then? |
| 6433 | Do n''t you hear him? |
| 6433 | Do n''t you remember how we used to go out, Henry, and bring down all sorts of small animals? |
| 6433 | Do n''t you remember the cold I caught when we were up at Lake Ontario? |
| 6433 | Do n''t you think so, White Buffalo? |
| 6433 | Do they claim the land up at Lake Erie? |
| 6433 | Do you know much of the third fellow? |
| 6433 | Do you know where Dave is now? |
| 6433 | Do you look for an uprising soon? |
| 6433 | Do you mean to say that they have been here? |
| 6433 | Do you mean to say that you will incite the red men to fight us? |
| 6433 | Do you mean to say you had fifteen pounds and ten shillings? |
| 6433 | Do you really mean that, Henry? |
| 6433 | Do you remember the time we first started to chop down trees? |
| 6433 | Do you suppose he came to see that medicine man? |
| 6433 | Do you suppose they burnt the post Jean Bevoir had? |
| 6433 | Do you think he really has the furs? |
| 6433 | Do you think he will set up a post near us, father? |
| 6433 | Do you think it impossible to recover such a trail? |
| 6433 | Does he expect to stay there, or move still further westward? |
| 6433 | Does it mean digging up the war hatchet? |
| 6433 | Doin''almost as well as Henry now, ai n''t ye? |
| 6433 | Father, are you there? |
| 6433 | For vat, tell me zat? |
| 6433 | Go, do you hear? |
| 6433 | Good big fellows, are n''t they? 6433 Great babies, ai n''t they?" |
| 6433 | Great times, eh, White Buffalo? |
| 6433 | Has Henry come? |
| 6433 | Has your father said anything about going out to his trading- post on the Kinotah again? |
| 6433 | Have you had any trouble? |
| 6433 | Have you seen any French traders in this vicinity? |
| 6433 | Have you seen anything of Hector Bergerac? |
| 6433 | He dealt principally in rum, did n''t he? |
| 6433 | He''s our best chum, is n''t he? 6433 How are we to get to the other side without a boat?" |
| 6433 | How far do you calculate the elk is from here? |
| 6433 | How large do you think our country will get in time, father? |
| 6433 | How much further do you think he''ll go to- night? |
| 6433 | How our hands got blistered, and how we would n''t give up because the men were looking on? |
| 6433 | How you geet avay? |
| 6433 | How? 6433 I reckon you thought I could n''t do it, eh?" |
| 6433 | I wonder how long the Indians have known of this cave? |
| 6433 | I wonder where that horse went to, and how long it will be before Dave and Sam come up? |
| 6433 | If Pontiac was in command of the Indians at the time of General Braddock''s defeat, do you suppose he had some of the red men bring this stuff here? |
| 6433 | If they did, why was he ashamed to show''em? |
| 6433 | If you wish to locate, why not do so here? 6433 Is he seriously hurt?" |
| 6433 | Is that you, Henry? |
| 6433 | It''s a curious collection, ai n''t it, Dave? |
| 6433 | It''s mighty funny I ca n''t find out who they belong to, ai n''t it? |
| 6433 | Louis Glotte,said James Morris sternly,"I want you to tell me the truth, do you hear? |
| 6433 | May I ask what you wish of him? |
| 6433 | My friend? |
| 6433 | No news of''em, is thar? |
| 6433 | No take furs from Brown Bear? |
| 6433 | Of what? |
| 6433 | Oh, Sam, do you mean to say he is killed? |
| 6433 | Oh, Sam, what shall we do? |
| 6433 | Oh, Uncle Sam,began little Nell-- she often called him uncle--"won''t you please let me keep the babies?" |
| 6433 | Oh, so that''s it, eh? 6433 Perhaps, but let me go, wo n''t you?" |
| 6433 | Planting guns? 6433 Pontiac?" |
| 6433 | Sam, is it you? |
| 6433 | Sam, shall we find that buffalo we''ve been talking about? |
| 6433 | See thet hollow yonder? 6433 Shall I give''em a dose?" |
| 6433 | Shall White Buffalo go forward and make a search? |
| 6433 | Shall we follow Pontiac further? |
| 6433 | Shall we go forward at once? |
| 6433 | Shall we leap upon him and make him a prisoner? |
| 6433 | Shall we put him on a drag? |
| 6433 | Shall we stop again at the Indian village of Nancoke? |
| 6433 | Shall you build again? |
| 6433 | So I am your prisonair? |
| 6433 | So you found them? |
| 6433 | So you ran across me, did you? 6433 So you take me to be a spy?" |
| 6433 | Supposing I wo n''t go with you? |
| 6433 | Supposing we take another look at the ruins of the old post? |
| 6433 | The fellow who traveled with Jean Bevoir? |
| 6433 | The only question is, air we strong enough for''em? |
| 6433 | The question is, shall we go forward and investigate, or return to the post and give the alarm? |
| 6433 | The question is, what is it? |
| 6433 | Then is it a fact that Pontiac fought against us at that time? |
| 6433 | Then, supposing you go ahead alone and take a look around, while Henry and I go to the post? |
| 6433 | Think? 6433 Tight fit, eh?" |
| 6433 | To the poorhouse? |
| 6433 | Vat ees it you vant? |
| 6433 | Vat for you close ze gate, Meester Morris? |
| 6433 | Want to race, eh? |
| 6433 | Want, do you ask? 6433 Was Pontiac of the Ottawas at the village?" |
| 6433 | Was it Sam Barringford''s voice? |
| 6433 | Was n''t little Nell stolen from us by the Indians and then held by that bad French trader, Jean Bevoir? |
| 6433 | Was there any fighting? |
| 6433 | Was there anybody else around? |
| 6433 | We want an English tradin''-post hyer, eh, boys? |
| 6433 | We wo n''t know what it means until--"Until what, Sam? 6433 We''ll have to go further now, wo n''t we, father?" |
| 6433 | Well, why should they, when you come to think of it? |
| 6433 | Were we ever in this neighborhood before? |
| 6433 | What about Sam? |
| 6433 | What are you doing? |
| 6433 | What are you going to do with me? |
| 6433 | What are you going to do with me? |

| 6433 | What does this mean? |
| 6433 | What for? |
| 6433 | What had we best do-- tell the commander at Fort Pitt? |
| 6433 | What has become of Hector Bergerac, do you know? |
| 6433 | What has become of our white brothers, Bevoir and Valette? |
| 6433 | What has that got to do with it? |
| 6433 | What have I done that was wrong? |
| 6433 | What have you discovered now, Sam? |
| 6433 | What is it, a tornado? |
| 6433 | What is it? |
| 6433 | What is that? |
| 6433 | What is that? |
| 6433 | What luck? |
| 6433 | What makes you say that? |
| 6433 | What more? |

| 6433 | What want you of me? |
| 6433 | What''s wrong? |

| 6433 | Where are you going to take me? |
| 6433 | Where are you? |
| 6433 | Where are your companions? |
| 6433 | Where are your furs? |
| 6433 | Where are your furs? |
| 6433 | Where did all this stuff come from? |
| 6433 | Where did he go to? |
| 6433 | Where did he stop overnight? |
| 6433 | Where did they go to? |
| 6433 | Where has Barringford gone? |
| 6433 | Where in the world have you been? |
| 6433 | Where is Dave? |
| 6433 | Where is Mamuliekala, the Great Water Bear? |
| 6433 | Where is Pontiac going? |
| 6433 | Where is your game? |
| 6433 | Where upon the Ohio have you placed the new post? |
| 6433 | Where will you take him? |
| 6433 | Where? |
| 6433 | Where? |
| 6433 | Where? |
| 6433 | While Pontiac thinks it over can I speak to the prisoner? |
| 6433 | White Buffalo, will you take me along? |
| 6433 | Who can answer for the future? |
| 6433 | Who can tell what the moons to come will bring forth? |
| 6433 | Who is it? |
| 6433 | Who organized the attack on my pack- train? |
| 6433 | Who were the others? |
| 6433 | Who would have thought it? |
| 6433 | Who-- who say zat Louis Glotte know''bout dat? |
| 6433 | Why did n''t I have sense enough to hold him back? 6433 Why did n''t you call me before?" |
| 6433 | Why did n''t you give him another shot? |
| 6433 | Why did n''t you throw down your packs and leave''em? |
| 6433 | Why do you ask me questions? |
| 6433 | Why do you want that? |
| 6433 | Why does Flat Nose ask the question? |
| 6433 | Why not? 6433 Why not?" |
| 6433 | Why should we follow him? |
| 6433 | Why? |
| 6433 | Why? |
| 6433 | Will it rain afore Sunday, Dave? |
| 6433 | Will they do that? |
| 6433 | Will they take Dave, or kill him? |
| 6433 | Will you help me to save what is my own, or must I surrender? |
| 6433 | Will you keep the babies for the present? |
| 6433 | Will you promise to go to your father and tell him I have saved you? |
| 6433 | Will you tell us where your post on the Ohio is located? |
| 6433 | Winded, eh? |
| 6433 | With this Dave Morris in your power, what will you do? |
| 6433 | Wonder if I could get her to aid me? |
| 6433 | Wonder what''s next? |
| 6433 | Wonder where Sam can be? |
| 6433 | Would n''t you think that, after all his upsettings, he would be content to rest and do what was right? |
| 6433 | Would n''t you? 6433 You are quite sure the Indians on that road are at peace with us?" |
| 6433 | You did n''t find anything with the man''s name on it? |
| 6433 | You have n''t seen any of your party since you ran away? |
| 6433 | You mean of our soldiers? |
| 6433 | You mean that you will make him promise not to prosecute us? |
| 6433 | All ready? |
| 6433 | And how came you to think that?" |
| 6433 | And if Pontiac fails, what will become of us? |
| 6433 | And why should n''t he know''em? |
| 6433 | And you were glad of it, not so? |
| 6433 | Answered me thet, will ye?" |
| 6433 | Are not the English and the red men now at peace with each other?" |
| 6433 | But are you quite sure you are not injured? |
| 6433 | But now the war is over, do you think we''ll have any more trouble with the Indians?" |
| 6433 | But what does it mean? |
| 6433 | CHAPTER XX GUARDING THE TRADING- POST"Did you see anything of Sam Barringford?" |
| 6433 | CHAPTER XXIII DAVE AND THE FAWN"Sam, do you think he will live?" |
| 6433 | CHAPTER XXVI STRANGE INDIAN MAGIC"Well, where in the world can Henry have ridden to?" |
| 6433 | Can I not see what is taking place around us? |
| 6433 | Can it be that Jean Bevoir, and Valette, and Bergerac were in it, too? |
| 6433 | Can my friends tell?" |
| 6433 | Can you not see? |
| 6433 | Come, shall I save you or not?" |
| 6433 | Dave, do you want to try it? |
| 6433 | Did n''t expect it like this, did ye? |
| 6433 | Did n''t see any deer?" |
| 6433 | Did you discover who did it?" |
| 6433 | Did you get the buffalo? |
| 6433 | Did you say Sam Barringford was going?" |
| 6433 | Do n''t you?" |
| 6433 | Do they believe in it, White Buffalo?" |
| 6433 | Do you feel like following into the cave?" |
| 6433 | Have ye heard o''Henry, an''the others?" |
| 6433 | How?" |
| 6433 | I wonder if I ca n''t manage to escape?" |
| 6433 | If Henry and Barringford were near, why did they not show themselves? |
| 6433 | If I do that, will you-- you--""What?" |
| 6433 | If he''s dead-- but no, I ca n''t think that, can you?" |
| 6433 | Is not White Buffalo right?" |
| 6433 | Masson, eh? |
| 6433 | No army has been sent out here to take possession, and how can the English claim that which they have not even seen or marked out?" |
| 6433 | Should he risk a rush to the right or the left? |
| 6433 | So you waited for me? |
| 6433 | Tell the plain truth?" |
| 6433 | The Indian must live by the hunt, so what is he to do?" |
| 6433 | The whites hold hundreds of black slaves, do n''t they?" |
| 6433 | Then your father shall come to terms, not so? |
| 6433 | Was Jacques Valette with him?" |
| 6433 | Well, what do you advise?" |
| 6433 | What are you doing here?" |
| 6433 | What can this mean? |
| 6433 | What does this mean?" |
| 6433 | What is it?" |
| 6433 | What is it?" |
| 6433 | What kind of an animal did you take me for?" |
| 6433 | What should he do? |
| 6433 | What were you going to do at the trading- post?" |
| 6433 | What will become of him?" |
| 6433 | What would any honest man want? |
| 6433 | What''ll I do with''em? |
| 6433 | Whe-- where is the buffalo?" |
| 6433 | Where are Sam and the others, and the horses?" |
| 6433 | Where are you?" |
| 6433 | Where are you?" |
| 6433 | Where did he get them?" |
| 6433 | Where has he gone? |
| 6433 | Where is Henry?" |
| 6433 | White Buffalo?" |
| 6433 | Who is there to dispute what he has said?" |
| 6433 | Who told you that you could n''t?" |
| 6433 | Why did n''t you shout when you came up?" |
| 6433 | Will you come in and warm up?" |
| 6433 | Will you go to the village with me, or remain with Flat Nose?" |
| 6433 | You ask how are we to fight them, for they are many? |
| 6433 | [ Illustration:''Where are your furs?'' |
| 6433 | cried the trader, lowering his weapon,"what does this mean?" |
| 6433 | is that you, White Buffalo? |
| 6433 | oui!_""And you have n''t it now?" |
| 6433 | said the Indian, meaning"How do you do?" |
| 6433 | so you think to escape, not so?" |
| 6433 | that makes you shiver, does it?" |
| 6433 | what is that?" |
| 4912 | Almighty God,he pursued, in the same tone of deep agony,"what have I done? |
| 4912 | And did n''t I want to do it? |
| 4912 | And do the great chiefs of the Shawanees, and the great chiefs of the Delawares, and the great chiefs of the other nations, ask for peace also? |
| 4912 | And is it really my brother, Morrison? 4912 And of the lady who is with him?" |
| 4912 | And to what do these letters bear resemblance? |
| 4912 | And was the body to roll back again? |
| 4912 | And what may that promise be? |
| 4912 | And wherefore thus carefully wrapped up? |
| 4912 | And who is he, my good Mullins? |
| 4912 | And your father''s name was Clayton? |
| 4912 | Any artillery, colonel? |
| 4912 | Are the artillery all present, Captain Wentworth? |
| 4912 | Are the garrison all present, Mr. Lawson? 4912 Are ye scared at another ghost, and be damned to you, that ye keep groaning there after that fashion?" |
| 4912 | But my poor brother, what of him, Lawson? 4912 But shall we not be seen by our enemies?" |
| 4912 | But the name,pursued De Haldimar;"how are we to separate the identity of the packets, when we recur to that name of''Reginald?''" |
| 4912 | But what do you propose that the swimmer and climber should do, Blessington? |
| 4912 | But what sudden movement is that within the ruin? |
| 4912 | But where are his proofs? |
| 4912 | But why may I not follow your honour? |
| 4912 | Ca n''t the poor fat devil of a Canadian snooze a bit in his hammock, without putting you so completely out of your reckoning? |
| 4912 | Charles, Charles, is this your promise to me? |
| 4912 | Cornish!--Cornish, did you say? |
| 4912 | Did my injuries end here? |
| 4912 | Did n''t you hear it then? 4912 Did you hear?" |
| 4912 | Did you not hear a noise? |
| 4912 | Did you remark that last harrowing exclamation of his wife? |
| 4912 | Do you imagine, Sir Everard Valletort, the aim of your rifle was true-- that you hit him? |
| 4912 | Do you mean, then,eagerly returned the governor,"that if the mere mode of your death be changed, my son shall be restored?" |
| 4912 | Do you mean,resumed the colonel,"that a request from yourself to the Ottawa chief will obtain the liberation of my son?" |
| 4912 | Do you see any prisoners?--Are any of our friends among them? |
| 4912 | Do you see any thing? |
| 4912 | Do you think me a fool, Captain de Haldimar,he observed, sneeringly,"that you expect so paltry a tale to be palmed successfully on my understanding? |
| 4912 | Does it make his heart sick to look upon the scalp of a great chief? |
| 4912 | Does my brother feel pain? |
| 4912 | Does the great chief of the Ottawas see the big thunder of the Saganaw? |
| 4912 | Does the great chief of the Ottawas, then, seek for peace in his heart at length? |
| 4912 | Ellen Halloway!--who calls Ellen Halloway? |
| 4912 | Ellen, woman, again I ask you where he came from? 4912 Gentle, said you?" |
| 4912 | Good Heaven, is it possible? |
| 4912 | Hark, hear you not the exulting yellings of the monsters? 4912 Has my father ever made any allusion to that packet since?" |
| 4912 | Have you heard any thing, Erskine? |
| 4912 | Have you seen Valletort? |
| 4912 | Hear you this, Colonel de Haldimar? |
| 4912 | How acted my brother officers, when, previously to the trial, I alluded to the damnable treachery of your father? 4912 How did he meet his death?" |
| 4912 | How is the message to be conveyed? |
| 4912 | How is this, Frederick?--Where, then, is Captain Baynton? 4912 How is this? |
| 4912 | How then do you account for the extraordinary circumstance of Donellan having been found murdered in his master''s clothes? 4912 I do;--what mean you?" |
| 4912 | In what manner did Captain de Haldimar and Donellan effect their passage across the ditch? |
| 4912 | Is it for a boy,he fiercely asked,"whose eyes know not yet the colour of blood, to judge of the enemies that fall by the tomahawk of Wacousta? |
| 4912 | Is the gate of the Saganaw open? |
| 4912 | Is the horrid massacre not finished yet? 4912 Is there a man-- are there any ten men, even with Governor de Haldimar at their head, who will be bold enough to attempt it?" |
| 4912 | Is this the self- command you pledged yourself to exercise? 4912 Lying concealed, and ready, no doubt, to give the canoes a warm reception,"observed Lieutenant Johnstone;"but where can our friends be? |
| 4912 | Mr. President, Captain Blessington,interrupted the governor, haughtily,"are we met here to listen to such language from a private soldier? |
| 4912 | Oh, Captain Baynton, where are we? |
| 4912 | Oh, Captain Baynton,murmured the fainting girl, her whole soul sinking within her, as she gazed shudderingly on his person,"is there no hope for us? |
| 4912 | On what mission are you here, if it be not to intrude unwarrantably on a parent''s privacy? |
| 4912 | Quick, Morrison, give me my clothes.--Where is my brother, Sumners? |
| 4912 | See you not something dark, and slightly moving immediately in a line with the left angle of the bomb- proof? |
| 4912 | Speak truly, was SHE not the traitress who conducted you here? |
| 4912 | The Ottawa chief says well,returned the governor;"but will the pale friend of the Ottawa come also to take his seat in the council hall? |
| 4912 | The portrait, Charles; what have you done with the portrait? |
| 4912 | Think you, Captain Blessington,he proudly retorted,"there is an officer in the fort who should dare to taunt me with my feelings as you have done? |
| 4912 | This is evidently the suggestion of some European,observed Major Blackwater;"for how should he understand any thing of the nature of a white flag? |
| 4912 | Was the Saganaw not right, when he said the Ottawa came with guile in his heart, and with a lie upon his lips? 4912 Well, Mullins, what now?" |
| 4912 | Well, what success? |
| 4912 | Were they to have returned in the same manner? |
| 4912 | What a set of prating fools ye are,interrupted the leading sergeant;"who ever saw an Ingian with light hair? |
| 4912 | What can Danvers be about? 4912 What can they be about?" |
| 4912 | What have you here, Mitchell? |
| 4912 | What is the meaning of all this, Cassidy? |
| 4912 | What mean you, Frederick? |
| 4912 | What mean you, Sumners? 4912 What mean you, fierce, unpitying man?" |
| 4912 | What mean you, prisoner? |
| 4912 | What now, man?--whom have you challenged? |
| 4912 | What of him?--who was he? |
| 4912 | What pledge have we of the fact? 4912 What says the great chief of the Ottawas now?" |
| 4912 | What says the smooth face of the Ottawas now? |
| 4912 | What the devil have you been about all this time, Francois? |
| 4912 | What think you of the fact of Halloway being the nephew of this extraordinary man, and both of high family? |
| 4912 | What think you, Erskine, of the policy of making an example, which may be witnessed by the enemy as well as the garrison? 4912 What thinks the great chief of the Ottawas now?" |
| 4912 | What were the charges preferred against me? |
| 4912 | What, again, Leslie? |
| 4912 | What, free your hands, and thus afford you a chance of escape? |
| 4912 | What, is he only wounded then? |
| 4912 | What, sir, is it you say? |
| 4912 | When will the Ottawa and the other chiefs come again? |
| 4912 | Where are the Indians principally encamped, sirrah? |
| 4912 | Where did you know him?--Whence came he? |
| 4912 | Where is it?--what have you done with it? |
| 4912 | Where is the rascal who fired at us, sirrah? 4912 Where the devil can Danvers have hid all his crew?" |
| 4912 | Where, in what part? |
| 4912 | Where?--in what direction? |
| 4912 | Where?--whose ghost?--what ghost?--what do you mean, Jack? |
| 4912 | Who does your honour mane? |
| 4912 | Who has fallen? |
| 4912 | Who is the murdered man, then? 4912 Who is this, Erskine?" |
| 4912 | Who knows but it may be our big friend, come to pay us a visit again? 4912 Who knows what ambuscade the she- divil may not lade your honour into; and thin who will you have to bring you out of it?" |
| 4912 | Who shall announce the intelligence to his sister? |
| 4912 | Why come they now, then, to ask for peace? |
| 4912 | Why did the Saganaw come into the country of the red skins? |
| 4912 | Why did they take our hunting grounds from us? 4912 Why does the girl refuse to eat?" |
| 4912 | Why does the girl refuse to eat? |
| 4912 | Why persevere in viewing only the more sombre side of the picture? |
| 4912 | Why stand ye there, ye dolts,continued their captain,"looking around as if ye were bewitched? |
| 4912 | Why then were you there in this disguise?--and who is he,again holding up the bloody scalp,"whom I have despoiled of this?" |
| 4912 | Why this delay, Francois? 4912 Why what the devil''s the matter with you now?" |
| 4912 | Why, what the devil''s the matter with you now, Jack? |
| 4912 | Will you believe, Blessington, that that man, whose enmity to our colonel seems almost devilish, was once an officer in this very regiment? |
| 4912 | Will you permit me to examine the portrait and envelopes, Colonel? |
| 4912 | Your honour-- you pitiful trading scoundrel-- how dare you talk to me of your honour? 4912 Again the governor interposed:--What possible connexion can there be between this man''s life, and the crime with which he stands charged? |
| 4912 | Ah, Blessington, why was not this all? |
| 4912 | Am I not right, Blessington?" |
| 4912 | Am I to die because I had not firmness to resist the prayer of my captain and of your son, Colonel de Haldimar?" |
| 4912 | And how could it be otherwise, since I was the first, beside her father, she had ever seen or recollected to have seen? |
| 4912 | And would he have done this, had he had reason to believe in the existence of a criminal love for him who evidently was his mortal foe? |
| 4912 | And, even if so, what to gain, I would ask; and by what means was a correspondence with the enemy to be maintained by one in my humble station? |
| 4912 | Are you guilty, or not guilty?" |
| 4912 | Are you not ashamed to set such an example to your comrades?" |
| 4912 | Are you quite certain that it is Captain de Haldimar?" |
| 4912 | Are you sure no inducement of private curiosity was mixed up with the discharge of your duty, that you entered thus unannounced? |
| 4912 | Besides, even were her cruellest fears to be realised, what could await her worse than the past? |
| 4912 | Bring the litter in to the rear.--Mitchell, you old fool, are you grown a coward in your age? |
| 4912 | But how was the report which had reached their ears to be accounted for? |
| 4912 | But if the great chief meant to be friendly, why did he declare war after smoking the pipe of peace with the Saganaw? |
| 4912 | But what do I say? |
| 4912 | But what do I say?" |
| 4912 | But what for do you tink so? |
| 4912 | But what have we here?" |
| 4912 | But what is it you mean? |
| 4912 | But what is the matter now, Valletort? |
| 4912 | But what is the meaning and object of this new sortie? |
| 4912 | But what of Frederick and Madeline de Haldimar? |
| 4912 | But what, save my poor and wretched wife, have I to regret? |
| 4912 | But who may resist the destiny that presides over him from the cradle to the grave? |
| 4912 | But why do you ask?" |
| 4912 | But, what became of that unfortunate creature?--was she brought in?" |
| 4912 | By whom, and at what?" |
| 4912 | Ca n''t you try and tickle him with the bayonet, any of you fellows, and see whether he is made of flesh and blood?" |
| 4912 | Captain Erskine pursued:--"What the devil is the meaning of all this, Johnstone?" |
| 4912 | Clara de Haldimar, do you understand me now?" |
| 4912 | Clara, that blush declares you guilty.--But, who have we here? |
| 4912 | Colonel de Haldimar, is the explanation which I gave you only this very hour, and in private, to be made the public instrument of my condemnation? |
| 4912 | Could Clara,--could his cousin-- could his brother-- could his friend be on board? |
| 4912 | Could he, in any way, be implicated with his mother? |
| 4912 | Could it be possible this was the same being alluded to by his father? |
| 4912 | Could this be a refinement of his treachery? |
| 4912 | De Haldimar has been slain by the same Indian who killed Murphy.--Do you recollect his scalp cry? |
| 4912 | Did I not tell you,"he continued, in mockery,"that, if my hands were but free, I would give you a specimen of my progress in Indian acquirements?" |
| 4912 | Did he ever express such to you?" |
| 4912 | Did you remark how displeased the colonel looked as he bungled through it? |
| 4912 | Do n''t you see you''re hugging the weather shore?" |
| 4912 | Do you know, Captain Erskine, our company is again ordered for this duty?" |
| 4912 | Do you not believe me?" |
| 4912 | Do you not think there was, Valletort?" |
| 4912 | Do you perfectly understand me?" |
| 4912 | Does he recollect the terrible chase of the pale face by the friend of the Ottawa? |
| 4912 | Does my father hear?" |
| 4912 | Does my father hear?" |
| 4912 | Does my father hear?" |
| 4912 | Does my father recollect the bridge on which he killed his young warrior? |
| 4912 | Does the Ottawa hear?" |
| 4912 | Erskine, Blessington, see you not who is behind me? |
| 4912 | Guilty, or not guilty?" |
| 4912 | Has she shared the fate of all? |
| 4912 | Has your honour secured the pistols?" |
| 4912 | Have you done so? |
| 4912 | Have you seen the letters, then?" |
| 4912 | Hear you not the blood- hounds on their scent?" |
| 4912 | His young men has found them, then; or how could he know they were spies?" |
| 4912 | Hope you then to stipulate for the preservation of a life every way forfeited to the offended justice of your country? |
| 4912 | How came this? |
| 4912 | How could the Ottawa go with deceit upon his lips, when his words were truth?" |
| 4912 | How could the savage contrive to obtain admission? |
| 4912 | How do you account for it?" |
| 4912 | How do you explain this, prisoner?" |
| 4912 | How felt-- how acted Colonel de Haldimar throughout this brief but terrible scene? |
| 4912 | How happens it the rope is no longer where you say it was placed? |
| 4912 | How were they respectively dressed?" |
| 4912 | How, therefore, could he be conveyed away without the alarm being given? |
| 4912 | How,"pursued Wacousta, with bitter energy,"shall I express the deep loathing I felt for those children? |
| 4912 | I know how deeply you love your father and your brothers, but do these alone occupy your attention? |
| 4912 | If I yield her shall I live?" |
| 4912 | In what, moreover, originated his triumphant expression of feature, when, on that occasion, he reminded him that HIS name was not Reginald? |
| 4912 | Indeed, how is it possible any thing formed of flesh and blood could have escaped us with the vigilant watch that has been kept on the ramparts? |
| 4912 | Is his voice still sick, that he can not come; or has the great chief of the Ottawas forgotten to tell him?" |
| 4912 | Is it likely, with all the incentives to good conduct I have named, I should have proved a traitor to my country? |
| 4912 | Is it then so very extraordinary an attachment should have been the consequence? |
| 4912 | Is not the Ottawa right?" |
| 4912 | Is the colonel apprised of the dreadful truth, do you know?" |
| 4912 | Is there not a certain friend of Charles whom you have some little curiosity to see also?" |
| 4912 | It evidently could only have been produced by the discharge of a cannon; and if so, where could the Indians have procured it? |
| 4912 | It is for the strongest, however, to propose his terms.--If I restore this girl to life, will you pledge yourself to mine?" |
| 4912 | Lawson?" |
| 4912 | May I not ask your hand?" |
| 4912 | Meanwhile, what answer do you make to the last charge preferred?--Are you guilty, or not guilty?" |
| 4912 | Mr. Lawson, quick to the governor, and report that Captain de Haldimar is here: with whom shall he say?" |
| 4912 | My nephew saved the life of your brother at the hazard of his own; and how has he been rewarded for the generous deed? |
| 4912 | Not playing the eaves- dropper, surely; and yet, if he meant to have picked off a sentinel, what was to have prevented him from doing it sooner?" |
| 4912 | Now, Sir, I ask what has been my reward? |
| 4912 | Oh, whither would you go?" |
| 4912 | Reginald, do you believe me? |
| 4912 | See you yon theatre of death?" |
| 4912 | Sergeant Cassidy,"he enquired of that individual, who now came to ask if the detachment was to be dismissed,"where have you placed the litter?" |
| 4912 | She paused a moment, and then abruptly demanded,"Where is that pale girl now?" |
| 4912 | Speak, what have you heard?" |
| 4912 | Speak; who are you? |
| 4912 | Surely you would not tamper with us at such a moment, Erskine?" |
| 4912 | Tell me, shall I write to Clara for the prize, or will you receive it from her own hands?" |
| 4912 | Tell me, then, as you hope for mercy, have you taken that oath only that you might the more securely betray us to our enemies? |
| 4912 | Tell me, you villain, what have you to say to these proofs of your treachery? |
| 4912 | Tell me,"he anxiously pursued,"was there a portrait enclosed with the letters?" |
| 4912 | Then springing suddenly up in his bed.--"Morrison, where are my clothes? |
| 4912 | Then turning to the terrified girl,--"You ask, Clara de Haldimar, where you are? |
| 4912 | Then, after a short pause, and in a voice of tender but exquisite anguish,"Clara, my beloved sister, do you not know me? |
| 4912 | Think you that he will see me hanged up like a dog, and fail to avenge my disgraceful death?" |
| 4912 | To what county did he belong?" |
| 4912 | To whom can you have pledged yourself, and for what, unless it be to some secret enemy without the walls? |
| 4912 | Was any allusion made to a change of dress before they left the fort?" |
| 4912 | Was the family seat called Morton Castle?" |
| 4912 | Well, Johnstone, my brave Scot, ready for another skirmish?" |
| 4912 | Well, will you believe what I have to add? |
| 4912 | What but disunion could follow this melancholy catastrophe? |
| 4912 | What connection have you with them at this moment? |
| 4912 | What does the Ottawa mean?" |
| 4912 | What faith can we repose in the word of a fiend, whose brutal vengeance has already sacrificed the gentlest life that ever animated human clay?" |
| 4912 | What had made him the enemy of his family? |
| 4912 | What has become of her?" |
| 4912 | What matter would it be if ye had all been scalped?" |
| 4912 | What mean you, man, by this rhodomontade? |
| 4912 | What mean you, woman?--What know you of Reginald Morton?" |
| 4912 | What more probable, therefore, than that this stranger is at once the cause and the agent of his abduction?" |
| 4912 | What pledge have you to offer that my son will be restored?" |
| 4912 | What possible result can it produce, but an utter prostration of every moral and physical energy? |
| 4912 | What say you, Reginald Morton, that you should not be convicted in the death that awaits the traitor?" |
| 4912 | What say you, my friend? |
| 4912 | What says the Ottawa? |
| 4912 | What says the great chief of the Ottawas?" |
| 4912 | What says the red girl? |
| 4912 | What was it but destiny that whispered to me what I had seen was the face of a woman? |
| 4912 | What were the contents of the packet you received from poor Halloway previous to his execution? |
| 4912 | What would you more?" |
| 4912 | What, Colonel de Haldimar afraid to liberate an unarmed prisoner, hemmed in by a forest of bayonets? |
| 4912 | When? |
| 4912 | Where is Madeline? |
| 4912 | Where is he, Mullins? |
| 4912 | Where is my son, sir? |
| 4912 | Where is the Indian who fired at us just now? |
| 4912 | Where, where shall I hide myself?" |
| 4912 | Who blighted my fair name, and cast me forth an alien in the land of my forefathers? |
| 4912 | Who did all this? |
| 4912 | Who is the subaltern of the guard?" |
| 4912 | Who is there to prove the man he has just described was the same who aimed at Captain de Haldimar''s life at Quebec?" |
| 4912 | Who the devil is to see you in the uniform, unless it be Halloway?" |
| 4912 | Who the divil ever heard of the officer wearing ammunition shoes?" |
| 4912 | Who turned the generous current of my blood into a river of overflowing gall? |
| 4912 | Who was my prosecutor? |
| 4912 | Who, in a word, cut me off from every joy that existence can impart to man? |
| 4912 | Who, then, was this Reginald? |
| 4912 | Why did he destroy the wigwams of the settlers, and carry off the scalps even of their weak women and children? |
| 4912 | Why does he not either open his fire, or crowd sail and away from them?" |
| 4912 | Why have been so energetic in his caution not to suffer a taint of impurity to attach to her memory? |
| 4912 | Why have they strong places encircling the country of the Indians, like a belt of wampum round the waist of a warrior?" |
| 4912 | Why should he have supposed the possibility of such impression, unless there had been sufficient cause for it? |
| 4912 | Why stand you there gazing upon the common, as if the victim of your murderous aim was rising from his bloody couch, to reproach you with his death? |
| 4912 | Why, too, had he evinced so much anxiety to remove from his mind all unfavourable impressions in regard to his mother? |
| 4912 | Will he enter? |
| 4912 | Will you please to try some?" |
| 4912 | Wiseacre?" |
| 4912 | Would my father know why he has become a chief of the Ottawas?" |
| 4912 | Yet how are we to get there? |
| 4912 | You understand me, Charles? |
| 4912 | You understand me?" |
| 4912 | and am I the sport of my own delusive fancy?--Do you not see it NOW?" |
| 4912 | and be balked of the chance of my just revenge? |
| 4912 | and be scalped in the act? |
| 4912 | and did you notice the eagerness with which he enquired if I thought I had hit him? |
| 4912 | and have the Indians, in reality, turned your brains with fear?" |
| 4912 | and he glanced sorrowfully at the corpse,"why was our success to be embittered by so great a sacrifice?" |
| 4912 | and how came the ghost on board of the canoe?" |
| 4912 | and how came you here?" |
| 4912 | and how comes he to be clad in the uniform of one of our officers? |
| 4912 | and how is it we find you leagued with our enemies?" |
| 4912 | and if so, can you produce it, or say where it is to be found?" |
| 4912 | and in whose possession are they now?" |
| 4912 | and that they are not always on the watch to prevent them?" |
| 4912 | and the first mortar that sent the howling devils flying in air like so many Will- o''the- wisps, who placed that, Wentworth?" |
| 4912 | and was he really ignorant of the existence of the danger which threatened them? |
| 4912 | and was the latter, then, aware of the connection?" |
| 4912 | and what has the pale warrior, the friend of the Ottawa, to do with it?" |
| 4912 | and where and how had originated his father''s connection with so extraordinary and so savage a being? |
| 4912 | and whither are we now going? |
| 4912 | and who is HE who stood looking through that window not ten minutes since?" |
| 4912 | are the officers all present?" |
| 4912 | are ye all mad? |
| 4912 | are you inclined to forward my suit; and if so, is there any chance for me, think you, with herself?" |
| 4912 | asked Sir Everard;"and will they not be on the watch for our movements, and intercept our retreat?" |
| 4912 | aspirated the sinking Clara, as she turned her streaming eyes to heaven;"can it be that the human heart can undergo such change? |
| 4912 | can it be possible? |
| 4912 | can it be true-- and is it really not De Haldimar whom I have shot?" |
| 4912 | can we not manage to make that, flag serve as his own winding sheet?" |
| 4912 | dear Miss de Haldimar, do you not know me?" |
| 4912 | discernment?) |
| 4912 | do you believe me now?" |
| 4912 | do you doubt me still?" |
| 4912 | exclaimed the youth, as he clasped his trembling and scarcely conscious burden to his chest,"Almighty God, where is she?" |
| 4912 | from the fort, when I could be so much better employed in guarding your honour from harm? |
| 4912 | groaned Wacousta, in fierce anguish of spirit,"who shall expound the complex riddle of thy versatile nature? |
| 4912 | growled the boatswain, addressing the sailor;"how can the stranger keep the bow of his craft on, and grapple at the same time? |
| 4912 | he asked;"and when will their warriors play at ball upon the common, that the Saganaw may see them and be amused?" |
| 4912 | he exclaimed aloud, and unable longer to check the ebullition of his feelings,--"what means this?--Is my brain turned? |
| 4912 | he exclaimed with almost frantic energy of passion:"do I then press you once more in madness to my doting heart? |
| 4912 | he repeated, while his right hand played convulsively with the handle of his tomahawk;"is it for a De Haldimar to taunt me with ignominy? |
| 4912 | he said fiercely to the major:--"how is this? |
| 4912 | he sternly demanded of the sergeant;"why is this halt without my orders, and how comes the body here?" |
| 4912 | hear you the cry of my wolf- dog?" |
| 4912 | is there no one to save me?--can nothing touch your stubborn heart?" |
| 4912 | laughed Wacousta in bitter scorn;"who is there of all your accursed regiment who will dare to take him alive?" |
| 4912 | must we die?" |
| 4912 | or have you already murdered him, as you did his servant? |
| 4912 | or have you reason to suppose her life has been spared?" |
| 4912 | or was he in reality an Indian?" |
| 4912 | presumptuous renegade, is this the deep game you have in view? |
| 4912 | pursued Wacousta, again striking his brow violently with his hand,--"why is it that I ever feel thus unmanned while recurring to those letters? |
| 4912 | resumed the governor;"or is he come to the strong hold of Detroit, as he went to the other strong holds, with deceit on his lips?" |
| 4912 | said Captain Erskine,"are the two best companies of the regiment to be kept at bay by a single desperado? |
| 4912 | said the officer, whose heart, eye, and ear were painfully on the alert,"what rustling is that we hear overhead?" |
| 4912 | said the warrior, enquiringly;"Henry Clayton, if I recollect aright?" |
| 4912 | shouted the latter in a fierce and powerful voice, and in the purest English accent;"hear you the curse and prophecy of this heart- broken woman? |
| 4912 | urged his companion, in the same almost inaudible whisper,"what sound was that?" |
| 4912 | what can this mean?" |
| 4912 | what could I do, laden with such a trust, and pursued, without the power of defence, by such an enemy? |
| 4912 | what have you learnt connected with his disappearance?" |
| 4912 | what mean those sounds?" |
| 4912 | what means this disguise? |
| 4912 | what new movement is that on the part of the savages?" |
| 4912 | what the hell''s the matter with the man now?" |
| 4912 | what was that?" |
| 4912 | what was that?" |
| 4912 | where am I, that I hear the name of my sainted mother thus familiarly pronounced?" |
| 4912 | where am I? |
| 4912 | where am I?" |
| 4912 | where are Charles de Haldimar and Sir Everard Valletort?" |
| 4912 | where indeed is she?" |
| 4912 | where is Clara? |
| 4912 | where is my bride?" |
| 4912 | where is my cousin? |
| 4912 | where is she? |
| 4912 | which the devil way does the wind blow now?" |
| 4912 | who names my father?" |
| 4912 | who would have ever thought a time would come when both my vengeance and my love would be gratified to the utmost? |
| 4912 | why not start directly?" |
| 4912 | why should Halloway be taken out for the purpose? |
