584Why do you have it so, John?
584Why not?
584Why, you know she is serious, do n''t you? 584 Would n''t the Bellmonts take her?"
584Yes, but who ever thought of having a nigger go, except to drive others there? 584 And I feel sick; who cares for that? 584 As she took her accustomed seat, he asked,Are you afraid to stay with me alone, Frado?"
584At dark Jack came in, and seeing Mary, accosted her with,"So you thought you''d vent your spite on Nig, did you?
584But had she not better run away?
584But he had told them to repent;"what was that?"
584But where?
584Do YOU know where she is?
584Do n''t you know that every night she will want to go toting off to meeting?
584Do you ask the destiny of those connected with her EARLY history?
584Flushed with anger, she rose and greeted her with,"What are you gone so long for?
584Frado pondered; her mistress was a professor of religion; was SHE going to heaven?
584Had you rather spare the other one?"
584Have I not testimonials plain, Of thy unchanging truth?
584He took her hand and said:"We''re going to move, by-''m- bye; will you go?"
584Her doubt was, IS there a heaven for the black?
584Herself was burden enough; who would have an additional one?
584His mother was a stranger to her, of course, and had perfect right to interrogate:"Is she good looking, Jack?"
584How could she meet this case?
584I heard,''why was I made?
584Is she YOUR prisoner?"
584Mag raised her eyes, full of amazement, and uttered a sonorous"What?"
584Nig looked for a change in her tyrant; what could subdue her, if the loss of her idol could not?
584Oh, what have I to live for?
584Same old story, is it; knocks and bumps?
584She asked her if James did not wish her to come and see him; what could it mean?
584She knew there was one for James, and Aunt Abby, and all good white people; but was there any for blacks?
584Should she"want to go there if she could not see him?"
584The neighbors dropped in to inquire after the sick, and also if Frado was"SERIOUS?"
584The next time she went to the sitting- room she asked her mother,--"Why does not Aunt Abby visit James as she has done?
584Turning to her husband, she asked,"Will you sit still, there, and hear that black nigger call Mary a liar?"
584Was it strange SHE should seem a desirable companion, a treasure as a wife?
584Was it strange if she were officious, with such relief in prospect?
584Was it strange that, to a disconsolate child, three years should seem a long, long time?
584What can the child mean?
584What could mother mean?"
584What shall I render to the Lord for all his benefits?"
584What though thy wounded bosom bleed, Pierced by affliction''s dart; Do I not all thy sorrows heed, And bear thee on my heart?
584Where IS Frado?"
584Where is she?"
584Where?
584Which is most likely to be true, what a dozen agree they saw, or the contrary?"
584Which you rather have, a black heart in a white skin, or a white heart in a black one?"
584Who made me so?"
584Who would take her?
584Why ca n''t you let her alone?
584Why could n''t you try to do better, and not disgrace your parents?"
584Why did n''t he make us BOTH white?"
584Would you answer the letter, or not?"
584You would have that little nigger trample on Mary, would you?
584and Sundays, too?
584and if--""Had n''t they better be all together?"
584and what our hopes But goodly shadows in the summer cloud?"
584do you hear it?"
584do you think he is in his right mind?"
584is this the way you answer me?"
584long for?
584said Pete;"Mag Smith, you want to marry?"
584what do you want to bring such a poor being into the family, for?
584why ca n''t I die?
36089An''phwat do ye hear of that poorrr sick angel, Miss Peyton? 36089 And give up the pink medicine?"
36089And let my deer skin and pictures burn up?

36089How could I make a book of all of us without you?"
36089How did she feel about having a successor?
36089I do think it is hard to be kept in bounds a week for an inherited weakness-- or shall we say strength?
36089I was glad my eyebrows were gone, for who does n''t like to camp?
36089I whispered to Nancy Blair as I passed her table on the way out:"What''s up?"
36089I whispered,"you beat us to it, did n''t you?
36089If we keep on with this false hair craze what will we come to?

36089That feast comes so close to Christmas it is quite an interruption to the education of the young; but what was she to do but comply?
36089The father leaned over him, asking:"My child, what is the matter?
36089Then after a minute,"What the devil will Hal say when he finds his Uncle Sam is a woman?"

11057And my mother?"
11057And now, is the situation remediless?
11057Are you never going to love me?"
11057As he walked along, he was talking to himself:----"I wonder what dey''ll do w''en I git back?
11057At length the sheriff spoke:----"Is this your gratitude to me for saving your life at the risk of my own?
11057At this moment, however, a fearful thought struck him; suppose the old woman had taken legal advice and married again during his absence?
11057But how in the world did Jack get the thing balled up?
11057But is it needful to stoop so low, and if so, where lies the ultimate responsibility for this abasement?
11057But w''at''s de matter wid yer, Nancy?
11057But what did I learn?
11057But what did you do with him?"
11057But what''s a man''s feelin''s ag''in''the proof?"
11057But, by the way, uncle Wellington, when were you married?"
11057Could I do less than he?
11057Could he subject his wife and daughter to the rude shock of such a disappointment?
11057Could he, in the face of his well- known principles, his lifelong rule of conduct, take this negro into his home and introduce him to his friends?
11057Did n''t Tom tell yer I''d be heah in twenty minutes?"
11057Did you give me your name, or even your protection?
11057Did you want to see me?"
11057Do I know the lady?"
11057Do you not see the letters-- M.S.?"
11057Do you want to take the bread out of a poor man''s mouth?
11057Does you know anybody w''at needs a good cook, suh?
11057Had he been mistaken?
11057Had she found a gold ring?
11057Have you and aunt Milly been having trouble?"
11057Have you anything to say why sentence should not be passed upon you?"

11057How dis man know''bout all dis yer foolis''ness?"

11057I wonder ef de chillun''ll be too proud ter reco''nize deir daddy come back f''um de penetenchy?
11057I wonder how Nancy''s s''ported the fambly all dese years?
11057I''d-- I''d-- would I be''lowed ter hit''em, suh?"
11057If not so, where lies the remedy?
11057In the stolidity with which he received this sentence for a crime which he had not committed, spoke who knows what trait of inherited savagery?
11057Is n''t there some more likely explanation?"
11057Is sump''n''skeered yer?"
11057Is we gwine back home''fo''long, Mars Dick?"
11057Is you gwine ter sleep all de mawnin''?
11057It''s hardly good form to mention one''s ancestors nowadays, and what''s the use of them at all if one ca n''t boast of them?"
11057Might not the witness''s indignation have been a manifestation of conscious innocence?
11057My friends, what would the man do?
11057Now, what is the effect of this wholesale disfranchisement of colored men, upon their citizenship?
11057Or shall steps be taken in the name of liberty to rescue a fellow- man from bondage?
11057Primus,"she called,"w''at wuz Ben Davis, w''at useter own dis yer house, sent ter de penitenchy fer?"
11057Really, come to think of it, why should I care whether you do anything or not?"
11057S''pose you be''n doin''well as usual?"
11057Seriously, Clara dear, what shall it be?
11057Shall this be tolerated?
11057Tell me, child, what ails you?
11057Was it a bright- colored silk dress?
11057Was it a soft, curly plume for her hat?
11057Was it merely a pastoral call?
11057Whar wuz he?"
11057What are a lot of musty, mouldy old grandfathers, compared with life and love and happiness?
11057What can I do for you?"
11057What did I ever do dat he should use me like he did?"
11057What do they need with education?
11057What do you want me to do, sweetheart?
11057What father''s duty have you ever performed for me?
11057What is a white man?
11057What was the meaning of it?
11057What was the occasion of his presence this evening?
11057What would he do, or rather what ought he to do, in such a crisis of a lifetime?
11057When are you going to give it up?"
11057Where kin yer git dem whips?"
11057Who''s coming?"
11057Why, elder,"he said to the preacher, who had started from his seat with surprise,"w''at''s yo''hurry?
11057Will you love me if I run a negro off to Canada?"
11057Will you promise to give no alarm and make no attempt to capture me until morning, if I do not shoot?"
11057Wo n''t you stay an''hab some supper wid us?"
11057Would you like to go with me?"
11057Yes or no?"
11057_ What other race would have submitted so quietly to disfranchisement?_ These facts stamp his[ the Negro''s] inferiority to the white race."
11057asked the hackman,"and what is his business?"
11057he gasped,"you would not murder your own father?"
11057or had aunt Milly taken legal advice and married the elder?
11057or rather, when shall it be?
11057or was he courting?
472Am I glad to see you? 472 An''I s''pose you''re happy, John?"
472An''who''s it from?
472And are you glad to see me, mother?
472And can I learn to be a lawyer, sir?
472And have children?
472And now, darling,pleaded Tryon,"will you not fix the day that shall make me happy?
472And now, my dear George,exclaimed the doctor,"to change one good subject for another, tell us who is the favored lady?"
472And what about our mother?
472And where are you staying, my dear?
472And you are visiting your mother?
472And you married into a good family?
472Anything wanted, Dave?
472Are you really colored?
472Are you sure you do n''t care, mamma?
472But would he marry me if he knew?
472Ca n''t I go ter town fer you atter I''ve seed her home, Mars Geo''ge?
472Can we not love each other for a while?
472Can you read writin''?
472Can you tell me anything about Judge Straight''s office hours?
472Can you tell me who lives there?
472Did he have on a linen duster?
472Did you ask when he''d be back?
472Did your people lose any niggers?
472Did your wife leave any kin?
472Do you mean ter''low that she wuz changed in her cradle, er is she too good- lookin''to be my daughter?
472Do you see this fifty- cent piece?
472Do you think I''m competent to teach the school?
472Does Mis''Molly Walden live here?
472Does she go to church or anywhere else with Jeff Wain, Plato?
472Does-- does you mean ter say, Mis''Walden, dat-- dat dis young lady is yo''own daughter?
472Fergot him? 472 Frank,"she asked,"can I git you to do somethin''fer me soon in the mo''nin''?"
472George,she cried, in melting tones,"dear George, do you love me?
472Gone where? 472 Gone where?"
472Has any search been made for her?
472Hello, Plato,called Tryon,"do you want a lift?"
472Hello, Plato,replied the young man,"what are you doing here?"
472How do you do?
472How long have these weighty thoughts been troubling your small head?
472How much do you love me?
472How should I know anything about''em?
472I think we ought to ask him to stay with us while he is in town, do n''t you?
472I wonder if that wuz him?
472I wonder who dat is?
472If he found her out, would he by any possibility marry her?
472Is Miss Rena here?
472Is he married?
472Is he married?
472Is he sick, or in trouble?
472Is he well off, Ed?
472Is she gwine fur?
472Is she tall and fair, and dignified and stately?
472Is that you, Frank?
472Is the doctor in?
472Is there anything the matter with him?
472Is your teacher white?
472John Walden?--Walden?
472Let me see-- you went away a few years before the war, was n''t it?
472Look a- here, nigger, what are you doin''with this white woman?
472Me, Mars Geo''ge?
472Mis''''Liza who?
472Miss Rena,said Plato to her on Tuesday,"ai n''t it''bout time I wuz gwine home wid you ag''in?"
472My dear sister,he replied,"why should he know?
472Plato,remarked Tryon impressively, as they drove into the town,"do you think you could keep a secret?"
472Rena, darling,said her lover,"when shall it be?
472Rena,asked her mother,"how''d you like to go an''pay yo''r brother John a visit?
472Sho''ly, Miss Rena, you''re gwine ter honah me wid one dance? 472 That is yours, is n''t it?"
472Then I need not be black?
472Then the message comes through you from somebody else?
472There''s a man here, doctor, who''s been taken suddenly ill. Can you come in a minute?
472Very well; would you not be willing, for his sake, to keep a secret-- your secret and mine, and that of the innocent child in your arms? 472 W''at is it, Mis''Molly?"
472Was there some one here?
472Wat you callin''dat w''ite man marster fur?
472Well, Cousin Molly,said Mary B. to Mis''Molly in the kitchen,"how does the plan strike you?"
472Well, Plato, what news?
472Well, Plato,he asked,"why are you absent from the classic shades of the academy to- day?"
472Well, Rena, dear,he asked with a smile,"what''s the matter?
472What Walden can that be? 472 What did he say?"
472What is the matter, George, dear?
472What would be the use?
472When did you last see my son?
472Where are you goin''with her?
472Who could have dreamed that she would blossom out like that? 472 Who is he, John?"
472Who is the lady, Tryon?
472Who was the lady, Plato?
472Who''s dead?
472Who''s it fur?
472Who''s there?
472Why are you not at school to- day?
472Why should n''t it be the other way, if the white blood is so much superior?
472Why, indeed, should he not be a lawyer, or anything else that a man might be, if it be in him?
472Why?
472Will he or will he not?
472Would he have loved me at all,she asked herself,"if he had known the story of my past?
472Yes, George?
472You ai n''t gwine ter be gone long, is you, Miss Rena?
472You are aware, of course, that you are a negro?
472You do n''t think, Frank,asked Rena severely,"that I would leave my mother and my home and all my friends, and NEVER come back again?"
472You love your children, mother?
472You''ve got a child?
472You''ve got a message from my son, you say?
472''Bout w''at time shill I come over?"
472And what would I do with a mule, anyhow?
472And you ARE a gentleman now, John, ai n''t you-- sure enough?
472Are you staying long?"
472At what time shall I call for Miss Warwick this evening?
472But as I was saying, this girl is a beauty; I reckon we might guess where she got some of it, eh, Judge?
472But had he not aided in his own deception?
472But perhaps there''s a loadstone in South Carolina to draw you back?
472But to which of the two men, and to what end?
472But we''ll spare you if you''ll answer one question-- is it serious?"
472But what assurance was there that Frank would always be discreet about the affairs of others?
472But where is Rena?
472But would he not see Rena in her best attire, and might she not perhaps, in passing, speak a word to him?
472But would her lover still love her, if he knew all?
472Could he still have held her in love and honor?
472Could she have divined his thought?
472Did you ever hear of the Dred Scott decision, delivered by the great, wise, and learned Judge Taney?"
472Do n''t you think, if you should go part of the way, that I might take your place for the rest, while you did my errand?"
472Do you belong in town?"
472Do you imagine he would be any happier than he is now, or than if he should never know?"
472Do you know where she lives-- down on Front Street, in the house behind the cedars?"
472Do you remember how you cried when I went away?"
472Do you remember my wife thirty years ago, judge?"
472Do you-- love me?"
472Does n''t such a course seem just the least bit selfish?
472For after all, they argued, in spite of her airs and graces, her white face and her fine clothes, was she not a negro, even as themselves?
472Had God ordained the crime that the punishment might follow?
472Had not Rena compared herself to the child''s nurse, and had he not assured her that if she were the nurse, he would marry her next day?
472Had not Warwick told him distinctly that they were of no family, and was it not his own fault that he had not followed up the clue thus given him?
472Had not the Witch of Endor called up the shade of Samuel the prophet?
472Had not the spirit of Mis''Molly''s dead son appeared to her, as well as the ghostly presence of another she had loved?
472He could scarcely call at her boarding- place,--what possible proper excuse could a young white man have for visiting a colored woman?
472How had he been so blind as not to have read long ago the character of this wretched girl who had bewitched him?
472How is that for a pedigree?
472How many others of his friends would do the same, if they but knew of it?
472How much do you love me?
472How was he to imagine that persons of their appearance and pretensions were tainted with negro blood?
472How would you like to lose yo''r one child?"
472I wonder ef she''d know me er speak ter me ef she seed me?
472I wonder w''at dat man''s gwine ter do wid her handkercher?
472I wonder who the other is, and what was the trouble?"
472I wonder,"he mused,"if he will find her out?"
472If a man is noble and brave and strong, if a woman is beautiful and good and true, what matters it about his or her ancestry?
472If he had married Rena in ignorance of her secret, and had learned it afterwards, would he have put her aside?
472If not, could he have given her the outward seeming of affection, or could he have been more than coldly tolerant?
472If she had met misfortune before, what were her prospects for happiness now?
472Is there anything you want-- money, or what?
472Is you got a roasted''tater you could gimme, ma''m?"
472Kin I ride wid you?"
472Miss Leary had no doubt that there was a woman at the bottom of it,--for about what else should youth worry but love?
472No doubt that seems to you a long time, young gentleman?"
472No?
472Nobody knows the old story?"
472Or, having loved me, could he blame me now for what I can not help?"
472Sacrifices must be made, but if the world without love would be nothing, then why not give up the world for love?
472Shall I fetch''i m?"
472So one of old Duncan McSwayne''s notes went so far as that?
472Suppose he had married me and then had found it out?"
472The flower would soon be his; why should he care to dig up the soil in which it grew?
472The sound that came from them seemed to be:--"Is Dr. Green in?
472The spirit of a thing, after all, is what counts; and what is lacking here?
472There are the dear old books: have they been read since I went away?"
472W''at wuz dat you say?"
472Wain''s?"
472Wain?"
472Was it the name, or some subtle resemblance in speech or feature, that recalled Tryon''s image to Rena''s mind?
472What ails the girl?"
472What do you mean?"
472What horrible fate was it that had involved him-- nay, that had caught this sweet delicate girl in such a blind alley?
472What is it, Dave?"
472What is your father''s name?"
472What is your name, child, and where were you brought up?
472What should she do?
472What would I do in Clarence now?
472What''s yo''r business?"
472When shall it be?
472Wherein lay the great superiority of his position, if he was denied the right to speak to the one person in the world whom he most cared to address?
472Who else could comfort you so well as she?"
472Who has not known some even- tempered old man or woman who seemed to have drunk of the fountain of youth?
472Who has not seen somewhere an old town that, having long since ceased to grow, yet held its own without perceptible decline?
472Who the devil are you, sir, that wish so strange a thing as to become a lawyer-- everybody''s servant?"
472Why not speak to her now, and thus give himself the best possible protection against stray flames of love?
472Why not?"
472Why should I seek the society of people whose friendship-- and love-- one little word can turn to scorn?
472Why should he, by revealing his presence, sow the seeds of doubt or distrust in the garden of her happiness?
472Why, of all created beings, should this particular woman be chosen to teach the colored school at Sandy Run?
472Will you be able to look over them to- day?
472Will you go with me?"
472Will you not grant me one interview?
472Will you stay with the ladies awhile, or go back down town with me?"
472Will you wait for me here, George, or will you drive down to the office?
472Wo n''t you set down in de private office an''wait fer''i m, suh?"
472Would God have made hearts to so yearn for one another if He had meant them to stay forever apart?
472Would he love me, if he knew?"
472Would the girl, denied marriage, accept anything less?
472Would the young man''s love turn to disgust and repulsion, or would it merely sink from the level of worship to that of desire?
472Would you involve all of us in difficulties merely to secure your own peace of mind?
472Would you mind driving her over?
472Would- be- lawyer?"
472You know who I mean, do n''t you, judge?"
472You love him, I imagine, and wish to make him happy?"
472and how have you been getting along?"
472and since the slaves had been freed, was not one negro as good as another?
472do n''t you know me?"
472exclaimed Dr. Green vivaciously,"insult our town by staying only one day?
472exclaimed his neighbor, with a well- simulated air of mystification,"what are you talkin''about?"
472exclaimed the stranger,"who''ve you got there?"
472he exclaimed suddenly, striking his knee with his hand,"why should n''t I run up to Patesville while Rena''s gone?
472or if one''s love affairs run smoothly, why should one worry about anything at all?
472she exclaimed weakly,"what is it?"
472she inquired with interest?
472she moaned,"what shall I do with out her?
19746''Dey ain''nobody hyuh but you an''me, is dey?'' 19746 ''Well, hoo''s de man-- hoo''s de man?''
19746And can any one hear us?
19746And he had the money, in gold?
19746And how is your mother?
19746And what are ha''nts, Uncle Peter?
19746And what are you doing here, Taylor?
19746And what are you going to do?
19746And what became of the industrial school project?
19746And what has old Peter done to deserve a fine of twenty dollars-- more money than he perhaps has ever had at any one time?
19746And what have you been doing all these years, Peter?
19746And who is the woman?
19746And you''d pay the note if you had to, would n''t you?
19746Are n''t you satisfied with the wages?
19746Are we alone, sir?
19746Are you all through, gentlemen? 19746 Are you familiar with New York?"
19746Are you looking for some one?
19746Are you speaking to me?
19746At this hour?
19746Ben tells me you have a business matter to present to me?
19746But cats do n''t fish, Uncle Peter, do they?
19746But what will you do with it?
19746But you''ll be back,she added, recovering herself quickly,"before the vacation season opens?"
19746But, Henry, how could I leave my mother? 19746 But, Henry,"she said with some hesitation,"do you mean that coloured people should use the library?"
19746But, Mistah Haines,asked Peter, excitedly,"is I got to stay here all night?
19746But, papa, if I should die first, and then Uncle Peter, and you last of all, you''ll put Uncle Peter near me, wo n''t you, papa?
19746By the way, Taylor,asked the colonel,"how do_ you_ know all this?"
19746Ca n''t dey? 19746 Can we do anything to punish_ this_ crime?"
19746Can you make it?
19746Colonel French,she said as they were walking the horse up a hill,"are you going to give a house warming?"
19746Could your mother see me,he asked, as they reached the gate,"if I went by the house?"
19746Did Jeff go away?
19746Did he? 19746 Do all spirits come back, Uncle Peter?"
19746Do n''t you want me to come?
19746Do they not need it most? 19746 Do you know where he hid it?"
19746Do you remember that? 19746 Do you suppose I can get dinner at the hotel?"
19746Do you think so?
19746Does he own it still?
19746Does his wife know where he is?
19746Excuse me, suh,he said,"I''ve been wondering ever since we left New York, if you wa''n''t Colonel French?"
19746Gone out to sea?
19746Graciella,he had said,"are you going to marry me?
19746Graciella,he said, taking her hand in his as they stood a moment,"will you marry me?"
19746Has Dr. Moffatt been notified?
19746Has Mr. Turner been in here?
19746Have you any power in the matter?
19746Have you anything to say?
19746He is named Philip-- after his grandfather, I reckon?
19746He left it here?
19746He was the speculator,she said,"who bought and sold negroes, and kept dogs to chase runaways; old Mr. Fetters-- you must remember old Josh Fetters?
19746He''s a lovely man, is n''t he, Aunt Laura?
19746How can such a hotel prosper?
19746How did he come to be arrested the first time?
19746How did you come to lose Belleview?
19746How do you do?
19746How do you know, doctor? 19746 How is Mr. French, Judson?"
19746How?
19746Howdy do?
19746Howdy, Haines,said Turner,"How''s things?
19746Huh?
19746Huh?
19746I mean,he added, noting a change in the colonel''s expression,"why should n''t Fetters pay it?"
19746I suppose that in New York every one has dinner at six, and supper after the theatre or the concert?
19746I wonder which is it?
19746I''m very glad to hear it; and how is Phil?
19746In the barn?
19746In the yard? 19746 Is Miss Laura here?"
19746Is Mr. Fetters at home,inquired the colonel?
19746Is Mr. French there? 19746 Is it a matter of money?"
19746Is it in the house?
19746Is that all?
19746Is the old man sane?
19746Is this the place, papa?
19746It was nothing-- serious?
19746Kin I speak just a word to you, ma''am? 19746 Kin you come hyuh a minute?"
19746Laura,he said one evening when at the house,"will you go with me to- morrow to visit the academy?
19746Mars Henry?
19746May I ask the meaning of this proceeding?
19746Me? 19746 Mr. Blake,"he said, addressing a gentleman with short side- whiskers who was approaching them,"have you had the pleasure of meeting Colonel French?"
19746My man? 19746 No, Henry,"she said,"why should I deceive you?
19746No, Mrs. Hughes, what is it?
19746Not even-- Ben?
19746Oh, Henry,exclaimed Miss Laura,"what is this dreadful story about Ben Dudley?
19746Oh, indeed? 19746 Oh, you are the Nichols, are you, who bought our old place?"
19746Papa, was Uncle Peter hurt?
19746Papa,he said, upon one of these peaceful afternoons,"there''s room enough here for all of us, is n''t there-- you, and me and Uncle Peter?"
19746Papa,he said,"am I going to die?"
19746Phil?
19746Quite well,returned the colonel,"how are you?"
19746Sam,he asked the coachman,"who is that white man?"
19746She is living yet, I trust?
19746Sold,said the justice, bringing down his gavel,"for life, to-- what name, suh?"
19746Surely you can not doubt it, Laura?
19746Thank you,replied the colonel,"I''ll have my man drive me out to- morrow about ten, say; if you''ll be at home?
19746That''s Mr. Dudley, I suppose?
19746The son of Malcolm Dudley, of Mink Run, I suppose? 19746 Then it is good?"
19746Well, Mr. Fetters, what say you?
19746Well, then,she said with a deep sigh,"there is absolutely nothing left?"
19746Well,said Peter,"does you''member dat coal- black man dat drives de lumber wagon?"
19746Well?
19746What is a ha''nted house, Uncle Peter?
19746What is it, Catherine?
19746What is your name?
19746What is your total enrolment?
19746What reason?
19746What time does the train go back to Clarendon?
19746What''ll you do with him, Colonel?
19746What''s the matter with them, Peter? 19746 What''s the matter?"
19746When will Mr. Fetters return?
19746Where are you going?
19746Where is he, papa? 19746 Where was it?"
19746Who did?
19746Who is the mucker, anyway?
19746Who owns the mill?
19746Why did n''t he want to talk to the black cat, Uncle Peter?
19746Why didn''he wan''ter talk ter de black cat? 19746 Why has she never shown him?"
19746Why not? 19746 Why not?"
19746Why not?
19746Why should I waste my time with you, if I did n''t care for you?
19746Why should you pay it?
19746Why, Colonel French,she cried,"you are not going already?
19746Will you be in town long?
19746Will you go for a walk with me?
19746Will you tell me whose graves these are that you are caring for?
19746Wo n''t you stay to supper, Ben?
19746Wo n''t you''light and come in?
19746Would n''t I?
19746Would you like a drive?
19746Yes, Peter, and the robins we used to shoot and the rabbits we used to trap?
19746Yes, Uncle Peter, but those were just stories; they did n''t really talk, did they?
19746You are not one of Fetters''s admirers then?
19746You could never_ live_ in it again-- after a coloured family?
19746You mean that you must regain your speech before you can explain?
19746You saw my uncle?
19746You taught her to sing--_''I dreamt that I dwelt in marble halls? 19746 You will tell me where it is?"
19746You would n''t break the law?
19746You''re Colonel French, ai n''t you, suh?
19746You''re awfully sorry for the ladies, are n''t you?
19746You''re taking Judson with you to look after the boy?
19746''Member dem chinquapin bushes, whar we killt dat water moccasin dat day?
19746''Member dem co''n- stalk fiddles we use''ter make, an''dem elderberry- wood whistles?"
19746A rope, a tree-- a puff of smoke, a flash of flame-- or a barbaric orgy of fire and blood-- what matter which?
19746Ai n''t I worth as much as a trip up North?"
19746And shall we invite the old people?"
19746And what higher work than to elevate humanity?"
19746And you''ll wait for me, wo n''t you, Graciella?"
19746Are you all done?
19746Are you from the No''th, likely?"
19746Are you still living in the old place?"
19746Bill Fetters rich and great,"he mused,"who would have dreamed it?
19746But could he expect to hold his own against a millionaire, who had the garments and the manners of the great outside world?
19746But how have you been these many years, and where is your wife?
19746But no Negro had ever thought of burying his dead elsewhere, and if their cemetery was not well kept up, whose fault was it but their own?
19746But was not his, after all, the only way?
19746But what is dere fer''em to do?
19746But why smile at the sentiment?
19746But, oh, Henry, if all of those who love justice and practise humanity should go away, what would become of us?"
19746But, wo n''t you step into the library?
19746Can such a possibility be contemplated without a shudder?
19746Can we sit down over here in the shade and talk by ourselves for a moment?"
19746Can you tell me where it is?"
19746Consider their teachers-- if the blind lead the blind, shall they not both fall into the ditch?"
19746Could he tell her that this seemingly fortunate accident was merely the irony of fate-- a mere cruel reminder of a former misfortune?
19746Did he know Ward McAllister, at that period the Beau Brummel of the metropolitan smart set?
19746Did the old Knickerbocker families recognise the Vanderbilts?
19746Did you bring her with you?"
19746Did you bring me a_ Herald_?
19746Did you ever see his uncle Malcolm?"
19746Did you see that hoss''n''-buggy hitched in front of the ho- tel?"
19746Do n''t you suppose I have any feelings, even if I ai n''t much account?
19746Do you know?"
19746Do you remember what you told me, that night-- that happy night-- that you loved me because in me you found the embodiment of an ideal?
19746Do you want to bid, suh?
19746Does anybody wish to make it less?"
19746Does you''member de place?"
19746Dudley?"
19746Fetters?"
19746Fetters?"
19746Fetters?"
19746Guilty or not guilty?
19746Had his growing absorption in other things led him to neglect his child?
19746Had the colonel remained in his native State, would he have been able, he wondered, to impress himself so deeply upon the community?
19746Had the lesson been in vain?
19746Have somethin''mo''?"
19746He has n''t gone yet?"
19746He is dead?"
19746He was not to blame for his want of knowledge; but could she throw herself away upon an ignoramus?
19746Hoo said dey couldn''?
19746How long shall I make it?"
19746How long shall I say?"
19746How many have you got this time?"
19746How much am I offered for this bargain?"
19746How much do you s''pose the Squire''ll fine Bud?"
19746I did n''t keep my word about Johnson, did I?"
19746I did not know; but he is alive, I trust, and well?"
19746I do n''t suppose you remember me?"
19746I''m offered two yeahs, gentlemen, for old Peter French?
19746Is Phil worse?"
19746Is it, for some reason, inappropriate to this particular case?
19746It was hallowed by a hundred memories, and now!----"Will you have oil on yo''hair, suh, or bay rum?"
19746May I buy him?"
19746Me an''him will git along fine, wo n''t we, little Mars Phil?"
19746Nobody ain''done tol''you''bout de Black Cat an''de Ha''nted House, is dey?"
19746Now, what''s on your mind?
19746On what days of the week was the Art Museum free to the public?
19746Ought I to give a house warming?"
19746Perhaps not many of them might wish to use it; but to those who do, should we deny the opportunity?
19746Perhaps you can recommend such a person?"
19746She wished her Aunt Laura happiness; no one could deserve it more, but was it possible to be happy with a man so lacking in taste and judgment?
19746Should they put in any evidence, which would be merely to show their hand, since the prisoner would in any event undoubtedly be bound over?
19746Strange things had happened, and why might they not happen again?
19746Tendin''co''t?"
19746The colonel had taken it up and was reading:"''Who can find a virtuous woman?
19746Tombstones always tell the truth, do n''t they, Uncle Peter?"
19746Turner?"
19746Was Fifth Avenue losing its pre- eminence?
19746Was he hurt badly?"
19746Was he marrying her through a mere sentimental impulse, or for calculated convenience, or from both?
19746We will not assimilate him, we can not deport him----""And therefore, O man of God, must we exterminate him?"
19746Well, uncle, did this interesting old family die out, or is it represented in the present generation?"
19746Were the Rockefellers anything at all socially?
19746Were these his only motives; and, if so, were they sufficient to ensure her happiness?
19746What I am bid, gentlemen, for ol''Peter French?
19746What am I bid for this prime lot?"
19746What better place for him than New York?
19746What can be the matter with Ben?
19746What can be the matter?
19746What do you plead-- guilty or not guilty?"
19746What do you want for it?"
19746What else could be expected?
19746What gentleman here would want his daughter to marry a blubber- lipped, cocoanut- headed, kidney- footed, etc., etc., nigger?"
19746What good had freedom done for Peter?
19746What have you got to tell me?"
19746What house?"
19746What is your standard of comparison?"
19746What shall I call you?"
19746What sort of a party shall it be?"
19746What''s it all about?"
19746What''s your trouble?
19746What, in the end, do we get for all our labour?"
19746When did it happen?"
19746Where shall I build the library?"
19746Who can measure the force of hope?
19746Who was Fetters, Laura?"
19746Whoever heard of anybody''s paying a note that was n''t presented?"
19746Why had he chosen her?
19746Why not?
19746Why should Colonel French, an old man, who was of no better blood than himself, be rich enough to rob him of the woman whom he loved?
19746Why should I make any more money?
19746Why should he be poor, while others were rich, and while fifty thousand dollars in gold were hidden in or around the house where he lived?
19746Will you come with me?"
19746Will you come with me?"
19746Will you let me keep our engagement secret until I-- am accustomed to it?
19746Willis when they came out?"
19746With what conscience could a white man in Clarendon ever again ask a Negro to disclose the name or hiding place of a coloured criminal?
19746Wo n''t I look funny in a hoop skirt?"
19746Would blood have been of any advantage, under the changed conditions, or would it have been a drawback to one who sought political advancement?
19746Would the colonel wait?
19746You ain''gwine off nowhere, and leave me alone whils''you are hyuh, is you, suh?"
19746You are going to like me, are n''t you, Phil?"
19746You have not forgotten the way?"
19746You wanted to see me about Bud Johnson?"
19746You''ll call up Mrs. Jerviss, of course, and let her know about the sale?"
19746_"Gwine ter run all night, Gwine ter run all day, I''ll bet my money on de bobtail nag, Oh, who''s gwine ter bet on de bay?
19746an''de minnows we use''ter ketch in de creek, an''dem perch in de mill pon''?"
19746he asked,"w''at''s gone wid de chile?"
19746she exclaimed,"and at such a time?
19746the garden?
19746the quarters?"
19746the spring house?
40178About me?
40178Ah, but is it not almost the same? 40178 Ah, so Miss Carter has opened fire on you, too, has she?"
40178Ai n''t he a nut, though?
40178Ai n''t he a tur''ble slave driver, though?
40178An'', Miss Helen, if''n folks ai n''t got no country ter love what ought they do?
40178An''what was you an''the young man a- doin''of in Grantly?
40178And how was that?
40178And so Germany is to be whipped?
40178And what did Tempy say?
40178And who saved you?
40178And why are you so glad?
40178And why do you wear your apron in the back? 40178 And why is it you like so much to fly?"
40178And why of course?
40178And you were afraid I''d think that was silly?
40178And you, too?
40178And your shoes?
40178Are Mr. and Mrs. Carter and the young ladies at home?
40178Are n''t there any district schools here for the colored people?
40178Are n''t these foreigners the limit?
40178Are the roads so very bad? 40178 Are you to have carrier pigeons?"
40178Better than the count and Mr. Tom Smith?
40178Bobby, do you realize that you must take all of these blame gifts back to the boys?
40178Boss, ai n''t yer gonter han''us over?
40178Brains, did you say?
40178But are n''t the people the Government?
40178But s''posin''yer ai n''t got no country?
40178Ca n''t you read at all, Chloe?
40178Ca n''t you tell me what was in it?
40178Ca n''t your mother come and keep house for you?
40178Can you walk on them?
40178Certainly, and will you dance with me to show them how?
40178Chloe, did you look at the biscuit?
40178Could it be the dancers coming home?
40178Did she cook this wonderful supper?
40178Did you destroy the papers and maps?
40178Did you ever see such a proof of foreign blood in any man who pretends to be American born?
40178Did you order one?
40178Did you see Tempy?
40178Did you tell them we had come?
40178Do n''t you like my dress?
40178Do they drill with broomsticks?
40178Do you care so much for parties?
40178Do you dislike the Germans so much?
40178Do you dislike them so much then?
40178Do you fancy he is young or old, rich or poor, handsome or ugly? 40178 Do you find they learn easily?"
40178Do you know, I think that must be the most restful place in all the world? 40178 Do you like for him to walk home with you, Dug?"
40178Do you think the count is responsible for James''s nonsense?
40178Do you think they will be in time?
40178Does James feel that white people ought to sell him land whether they want to or not?
40178Does Tempy debate?
40178Does Tempy drill, too?
40178Does Tempy dust all these beautiful things?
40178Does it make any difference to you?
40178Does it make so very much difference to you?
40178Douglas, where is Douglas?
40178Dr. Wright, will you take me to Grantly? 40178 Even if''n they done wrong?"
40178Excellent air and water; close to schools and churches; neighborhood as good as to be found in Virginia, and what more could be said? 40178 Feel better now?"
40178Fleas on Minnie Brice?
40178Getting Father well, and-- and----"And what?
40178Has n''t it been awfully hard on you?
40178Has the lighting system come yet?
40178Have to?
40178Have you set the table?
40178Horse racing?
40178How about a doctor for your friend? 40178 How about supper?"
40178How about the God of Might?
40178How about the count?
40178How about washing your head; and writing your letters; and casting up the household accounts; and the_ Saturday Evening Post_?
40178How can they when a book has been suppressed? 40178 How can you say such a thing?
40178How could I when your call was so urgent? 40178 How do you like it, Mumsy?"
40178How is he going to manage?
40178How much gasoline have we?
40178How would you like me to run you over to see Lucy for a while this afternoon?
40178I am doing?
40178If it leaked on your head why did n''t you move your bed? 40178 If they ai n''t ter say done it but is a- gonter do it, thin what would you do?"
40178If''n some of yo''folks got into trouble, what would you do?
40178Is Miss Ellanlouise in dar now?
40178Is he crazy, Douglas?
40178Is it altogether our hostesses you are thinking about?
40178Is it merely the physical sensation?
40178Is n''t it lovely?
40178Is n''t it perfect?
40178Is n''t it strange, Cousin Robert,said Lewis to Mr. Carter,"I wrote Douglas I was coming and she never got my letter?"
40178Is n''t this the best fun ever? 40178 Is she ill?"
40178Is she sick? 40178 Is that so?
40178Is that so? 40178 Is that the way the German soldiers really walk?"
40178Just where was the accident?
40178Kin I go?
40178Margaret, could you accommodate a guest just now?
40178Miss Helen ai n''t gone ter Grantly, is she?
40178Miss Nan, whar Miss Helen?
40178Must I charge it, Miss Carter?
40178Nothing else?
40178Now that we are at war, will you not enlist?
40178Now, Miss Douglas, do n''t you know''bout dem cheers in de kitchen? 40178 Oh, Chloe, why did n''t you take them out?"
40178Oh, Douglas, is n''t the place sweet? 40178 Ought n''t folks ter love they own color better''n any other?"
40178Patriotic? 40178 Put everything on it just as I showed you yesterday?"
40178Really? 40178 Say, Miss Helen, is you sho''Miss Ellanlouise is goin''ternight?"
40178Say, kin you goose step?
40178She is conscious then?
40178State secrets?
40178That there ticket?
40178These men must be taken to jail, and why should not we attend to it? 40178 They are certainly going to the ball, are n''t they?"
40178Was n''t she at your mother''s?
40178Was your mother there?
40178Well, has n''t he accepted the hospitality of this country, and what is he doing? 40178 Well, it does n''t make any real difference since you are here, does it?"
40178Well, was n''t you a- talkin''that way? 40178 Well, what''s the reason he ai n''t fighting for his country?
40178Well, will you please take her this card?
40178Whar Miss Ellanlouise?
40178Whar Miss Helen?
40178Whar she gone?
40178Whar the count? 40178 What are you doing?"
40178What are you going to wear to the ball?
40178What are you quarreling about?
40178What can they be doing here?
40178What could he be saying to Helen to make her dimple and blush?
40178What did you eat for dinner?
40178What difference does it make to me, anyhow? 40178 What do they debate about?"
40178What do you think is the matter with their mother? 40178 What do you think, Douglas?"
40178What does she learn?
40178What fer they call him a count, Miss Helen? 40178 What for instance?"
40178What is it that made you weep so profusely? 40178 What is it you want?"
40178What is it?
40178What makes the stove smoke? 40178 What message?"
40178What negroes?
40178What on earth is that?
40178What was the argument about?
40178What would you have done in your own home if you had had to have an early breakfast for someone?
40178What?
40178When was the message sent?
40178Where did you find it?
40178Where did you learn to do it?
40178Where is your carrier pigeon?
40178Where is your sister?
40178Where will you put the pigeon house?
40178Who can drive it?
40178Who is it coming?
40178Who said it was only a quarter of a mile? 40178 Who told it to you?"
40178Who would want to have a Prussian for a neighbor?
40178Whom else should I consider?
40178Why are they wasting all this good music?
40178Why did you come today when you wrote you were coming to- morrow?
40178Why do n''t you give the pupils in your night school some drilling?
40178Why do we wait here?
40178Why do you try to go first? 40178 Why does Mother say she never expects to walk more than a few blocks again as long as she lives?"
40178Why is he not fighting with his country?
40178Why not walk?
40178Why not?
40178Why, William, are you crazy?
40178Why, certainly, if it is necessary, but who is the guest?
40178Would n''t you like me to teach you to read, Chloe?
40178Would you tell on''em?
40178Yassum, that''s what they tell me, but they do say----"Say what?
40178Yes, but whose God?
40178You got my telephone message all right, did n''t you?
40178You mos''cried yo''face away, did n''t you, Dug?
40178You said Tuesday, did n''t you, honey?
40178Ai n''t this a grand and glorious feeling?"
40178Ai n''t we an''our fo''bars done worked this here lan''from time in memoriam?
40178Ai n''t we tilled the sile an''hoed the craps fur these ol''tabbies an''what is we got to show fur it?
40178And the old ladies-- were they still sleeping?
40178And we''ll find our Land o''Dreaming at a long day''s close, We''ll find our Land o''Dreaming-- perhaps, who knows?
40178And what was this thing she was saying about his having to give back the blood money?
40178Are you not the staunch ally?
40178As for money-- why not just make bills?
40178But if they do catch you, you keep your black mouths shut about anything connected with the Count de Lestis or me,--do you understand?"
40178But who minds cedar pillars when Washington''s bower has done its best to cover them up?
40178CHAPTER III THE COUNT"Is n''t it fine not to have to bother about supper?"
40178CHAPTER VIII SATURDAY"Is n''t it glorious to be living and for it to be Saturday?"
40178CHAPTER XVI DRESSING FOR THE BALL"How are Miss Ella and Louise going?"
40178Ca n''t you see that this ai n''t no angel of the Lawd?
40178Can you take the matter in hand and get some toast and tea for both of them?
40178Carter?"
40178Could he be a flirt?
40178Could it be Lewis?"
40178Could n''t you fix it up somehow so I could take it with me and bring you the money tomorrow?
40178Could they be trying to get the count?
40178D.?"
40178Did he have a family?
40178Did n''t I give you a year?
40178Did n''t I tell you they would n''t be coming down here yesterday?
40178Did n''t you get my letter?"
40178Did n''t you say,''blame gif''s,''with your own mouth?
40178Did she deserve the praise he gave her now?
40178Did she like him at all or did she in a way distrust him?
40178Did you ever see such sights?"
40178Did you speak to me?"
40178Do little American gentlemen make their sisters cry?"
40178Do n''t you know it is that fool darky school that got all those poor nigs thinking that Grantly belonged to them?
40178Do n''t you know that niggers ca n''t wash they haids in winter time?
40178Do n''t you know the count ca n''t give a ball without you and Miss Ella?"
40178Do n''t you remember Mrs. Doasyouwouldbedoneby?
40178Do n''t you remember Page Allison, that lovely girl who came to Greendale with the Tucker twins?
40178Do n''t you think Uncle Sam would look after you and fight for you if you needed his help?"
40178Do n''t you?"
40178Do you need any assistance?"
40178Do you think I might train the sister?"
40178Do you think these colored men would want to kill Helen just because they are angry with the Misses Grant?"
40178Does anyone want to occupy the back seat?"
40178Does it make any difference to you?"
40178Eh, Adolph?"
40178Eh, Helen?
40178Eh, Margaret?
40178Eh, Mother?"
40178Funny men, are n''t they?
40178Had he only meant to tease her?
40178Had he told on the boys after having received pay for taking the blame?
40178Had they missed them yet?
40178Has n''t my new car eaten up distance, though?
40178His heart must be tender, his disposition good, or how could he make all of the poor colored people like him so much?
40178How about Mumsy?"
40178How can anyone hurry through fudge?"
40178How can you say such a thing?"
40178How can you?"
40178How could two such different looking persons be born of one mother?
40178I am better about it than I was at first, do n''t you think?"
40178I''s jes''a- foolin''---- Say, Miss Helen, what does potatriotic mean?"
40178If he can find amusement in the ladies of Mexico, who are, when all is told, an untidy lot, why should you worry?
40178Is it''cause he spen''all his time a- countin''out money?
40178Is n''t it a beautiful night?"
40178Is n''t it cold?"
40178Is n''t it nice for Father to have such a congenial friend?"
40178Is that the name of your place?"
40178Life?
40178Lucy, do n''t you like it?"
40178My pupils must respect me, and if I ca n''t make my own little brother obey me, how can I expect to control the rest of them?"
40178Of course the Carters were one and all dying to know more about him: Who was he?
40178One of her biggest grievances was against herself: why had she been so priggish with her cousin, Lewis Somerville?
40178Only six?
40178She distinctly heard Helen''s voice crying the alarm:"_ Grantly on fire and a great crowd of negro brutes in the yard!_""What is it, my dear?"
40178She struck up a warm friendship with Lucy, and since the two younger girls were together, what more natural than that he and Nan should be the same?
40178Should we get in the game or should we sit quietly by and see Germany overrun land and sea?
40178Tell me, has some bold cavalier trifled with her affections?"
40178That furrener?
40178They had perfectly good credit, and what was credit for but to use?
40178Was Lewis Somerville right and was the little learning a dangerous thing for these poor colored people?
40178Was he hearing the speech that the perfidious James was making?
40178Was he not his''ployer?
40178Was he trying to flirt with her?
40178Was his head not behaving as it should, after all?
40178Was n''t it?"
40178Was n''t she beautiful last night?"
40178Was the man crazy?
40178Whar Mr. Carter?
40178Whar that secondary?"
40178What Carter is it?"
40178What business had this foreigner to draw Helen into his household arrangements?
40178What did I tell you?"
40178What do we know of this stranger and what is he to us?"
40178What do you think about it, Nan?"
40178What do you think?"
40178What do you want?"
40178What does mere man know of pantry shelves?"
40178What good would it do him to fall in love?
40178What is that?"
40178What is to be done?"
40178What on earth are we to do?"
40178What on earth?"
40178What soldier?
40178What was his nationality?
40178Whatcher tryin''ter give us?"
40178When?"
40178Where did she get all of those strange socialistic ideas?
40178Where is your cap?"
40178Where to?"
40178Where was Dr. Wright?
40178Where was he?
40178Where were his people?
40178Where?
40178Where?
40178Where?
40178Who has done wrong or is going to do it, Chloe?"
40178Who is the count?"
40178Who is this Herz?"
40178Who''s got the thimble?''"
40178Why did n''t you tell me?"
40178Why did she leave?"
40178Why do n''t you go an''live''thout''em then?
40178Why had he settled in America?
40178Why have n''t you started yet?
40178Why not go in my car?"
40178Why should city people of such breeding and beauty come and live in a little tumbledown shack in the country?
40178Why should she distrust a man because of the way his moustache grew?
40178Why should the count want to make trouble?"
40178Why?
40178Will you go to war if it comes?"
40178Would he tackle all of those crazy, half- drunk brutes single- handed and not even armed?
40178Would that do?"
40178Would we or would we not be plunged into the World War?
40178Would you have me do otherwise?"
40178Would you think more of me if I could help your country in some way?"
40178Wright?"
40178You fat----""If you can go so much faster, why did n''t you start up the steps first?"
40178You noticed him, Douglas, did n''t you?"
40178You sent it off, did you not, Herz?"
36914A houri? 36914 A millionaire, is she?
36914Am I right, Heart''s Ease?
36914Am I?
36914And I? 36914 And am I not beautiful still?"
36914And did you accept?
36914And how can the devil be cast out?
36914And how did she come to be there?
36914And if I do come, what shall you think then?
36914And if I held and kissed you again, what then?
36914And if it''s removed?
36914And now I''m here, what am I supposed to do?
36914And the cruelty?
36914And those women in Paris, do they think only of love?
36914And what about the passionate?
36914And what if I say I like_ you_?
36914And what would that be?
36914And what would you complain of especially?
36914And what, my darling?
36914And where did you see her, this milk- white maid, with the hair of gold, and deep blue eyes?
36914And who is Captain Cameron?
36914Are they going to take me to him?
36914Are you in the habit of asking strange men to your bedroom?
36914Are you pleased to see him again?
36914Are you really anxious to get rid of me?
36914Are you with some people?
36914As well as I do?
36914As what?
36914Beloved,she whispered softly,"are your thoughts with some woman in Paris?"
36914But I thought you were staying here until Sir George came out?
36914But ca n''t you do something?
36914But enough to buy me a new frock?
36914But how did you come by such a brute?
36914But how did you know_ I_ was here?
36914But is there nothing I can do?
36914But what are you going to do with it all?
36914But what man did you save, and how did you save him?
36914But what''s his idea in coming as far south as this? 36914 But why''Pansy''specially?"
36914Can he read French?
36914Can she dance, this new slave of yours?
36914Can you never learn the virtue of silence?
36914Canst thou look into mine eyes and shake thy golden head which shall be pillowed upon my heart-- my wife-- the mother of my children? 36914 Casim, let''s have a dance?"
36914Come, wo n''t you eat, my sister?
36914Could I send my father a note?
36914Could n''t you be content to stay here?
36914Dare I think that you do n''t quite hate me? 36914 De Sultan, he no sell you den, Miss Pansy?"
36914Did you buy me?
36914Did you capture her on that foray?
36914Did you give that note of mine to my father?
36914Did you show me any pity when I begged for my father''s life? 36914 Do n''t you know that slave- dealing is an abomination?"
36914Do n''t you like my get- up?
36914Do n''t you love him?
36914Do n''t you? 36914 Do you always do as you like?"
36914Do you always try to do your best for everything that comes your way, Pansy?
36914Do you know her address there?
36914Do you know, my little slave, that you''re the only person in the place who dare take me to task about my doings?
36914Do you really want to know, my Lord?
36914Do you remember all I promised for you and yours that day you refused to listen to my pleadings?
36914Do you remember, Pansy, that sweet night in Grand Canary? 36914 Do you still refuse me the love I want, and which I know is mine?"
36914Do you still wish to escape?
36914Do you think I''m going to be dismissed in this manner?
36914Does music''soothe your savage breast''?
36914Does the fact of my Arab blood make marriage between us impossible?
36914Father, will you take me out to Gambia with you?
36914For_ you_ took him from_ me_, and what am I now? 36914 French he calls himself, does he?
36914Has he got my note yet, do you think?
36914Has n''t he paid you a visit yet?
36914Has the Sultan seen those scars?
36914Hast thou come to me in love, thou dove from the nest? 36914 Have n''t I often told you our Sultan has had thoughts for nothing but vengeance of late?"
36914Have you gotten over your disappointment?
36914He''s got a nerve, has n''t he?
36914Hearts are silly things, are n''t they?
36914Hello, old pal, what has happened?
36914How can I? 36914 How can you be such a brute, such a savage, so abominably cruel?"
36914How can you stand there and say such dreadful things?
36914How could I love anyone so depraved?
36914How do you know I''ve been ill?
36914How do you know he''ll let himself be bribed?
36914How do you make that out?
36914How else could I get you?
36914How is it, then, that you say Sir George Barclay is your father?
36914How long will it take to get my father free?
36914I can afford to pay for hired dancers, so why should I posture for the benefit of others?
36914I, despise and dislike you?
36914If I give you these, Marie, will you teach me to become a Frenchman?
36914If I sent a note to the Sultan, do you think it would be any use?
36914If you had the luck to bag him, what should you do?
36914If... if I marry you, will you send my father and friends safely back to Gambia?
36914Is he still alive?
36914Is it Pandora''s box?
36914Is it emeralds or pearls or diamonds? 36914 Is it true you''re going to sell Rayma?"
36914Is it you, my sister?
36914Is n''t he a bad, naughty boy, Grand- godfather, to want to kill my Daddy and sell me as a slave?
36914Is she to share her father''s fate?
36914Is that all?
36914It would n''t be fair for me to pit all my strength against yours, would it now?
36914It''s a harem, is it?
36914Just for a moment, my little English flower, will you rest upon my heart?
36914May_ I_ not even call her?
36914My father?
36914My little girl, what has happened?
36914My pearl, if there was one, would n''t she be here in the harem?
36914No, my little flower? 36914 No?
36914Now, before I go, Rayma, is there nothing you want? 36914 Now,"she said when it was set before them,"how do you like your coffee?"
36914Oh, Daddy,she said, tears choking her voice,"why is life so hard?"
36914Oh, Miss Pansy, dey hab come for you,she gasped"Who?"
36914Oh, Raoul, what would have happened if you had n''t come?
36914Oh, it''s you, is it? 36914 Pansy, suppose I ask you to redeem your promise?"
36914Pansy, suppose I consent to a six months''engagement? 36914 Sara, tell me quickly, have these weeks of weeping made me less beautiful?"
36914Shall you come to Paris again, Casim?
36914Should you like me any better if I did n''t sell Rayma?
36914So in my absence I''ve been cut out, have I?
36914So she''s something too good for me to talk about, is she? 36914 So the spirit is willing, etc.?"
36914So you despise men?
36914So you like me?
36914So, Pansy, you''ve come to pay me a visit?
36914So, little girl, you''re quite pleased to see me?
36914So, you shot my father?
36914Still only a few flowers, Pansy?
36914Still only a few flowers, Pansy?
36914Tell me, my jewel, what favour can I grant you before I go?
36914Was I ever particularly effusive?
36914Well, Heart''s Ease, are you feeling better?
36914Well, Pansy, are you going to marry me?
36914Well, and how''s tennis? 36914 Well, old pal, is there anything doing yet?"
36914Well, what about my being strong then?
36914Well?
36914What are they?
36914What are you hiding from me, Pansy?
36914What are you saying to him?
36914What are your plans with regard to Miss Barclay?
36914What can I do to amuse you?
36914What constitutes behaving myself?
36914What dare I hope? 36914 What disappointment?"
36914What do you mean, Rayma?
36914What do you want to talk about, then?
36914What else are the servants there for?
36914What else can I call you, since you refuse to tell me your name?
36914What exactly does''quits''mean? 36914 What has happened to you the last two days?"
36914What has happened?
36914What have you been doing with yourself all day?
36914What have you learnt about me?
36914What have you learnt?
36914What is it you English say? 36914 What is it, Annette?"
36914What is it, Pansy?
36914What is it, Pansy?
36914What is it? 36914 What is it?"
36914What is this new fancy of yours like?
36914What made you swim out all those miles the other night?
36914What nonsense is this?
36914What on earth can that be?
36914What sort of heaven would that be?
36914What was he like?
36914What''s got hold of you now?
36914What''s her price, Raoul?
36914What''s the business, Raoul? 36914 What''s wrong with being English?"
36914What''s your idea of something''really feminine?''
36914When did I encourage you?
36914When will that day be?
36914When you''re back in Africa you wo n''t quite forget your little Marie who taught you to be a man, will you?
36914Where are we going?
36914Where are you going, Pansy?
36914Where did we first meet?
36914Where did you drop across him?
36914Where is Doctor Edouard? 36914 Where is George Barclay?"
36914Where is Rayma?
36914Where is the English lady?
36914Where is the Sultan? 36914 Where is the girl?"
36914Which ones especially?
36914Who and what is the youngster?
36914Who are you really, Pansy?
36914Who has hurt my nice new Daddy?
36914Who is it, Bob?
36914Who is that man?
36914Who is that woman?
36914Who is that?
36914Who is your father?
36914Who told you that?
36914Who''s Bobby?
36914Why are you avoiding me?
36914Why ca n''t I have a choice of being either French or Russian or Italian or Spanish or German?
36914Why did you run away from me the other night?
36914Why did you tell me your name was Langham?
36914Why do n''t you smoke?
36914Why do you always say''the Sultan,''and never''your father''?
36914Why do you want it?
36914Why do you wear your hair short? 36914 Why have n''t you come sooner to see that new slave of yours, Casim beloved?"
36914Why not Lily or Rose or May, since I''m to be given a stupid flower name?
36914Why not? 36914 Why not?"
36914Why should you?
36914Will you come then?
36914Will you meet me to- night, after dinner, near the fountain?
36914Will you tell the Sultan I want to see him?
36914Wo n''t you come willingly?
36914Wo n''t you give me another, Pansy?
36914Wo n''t you tell me?
36914Would n''t you like to know my name?
36914Would vengeance keep him away from me all these weeks? 36914 You despise and dislike me already, so why should I get further into your black books?"
36914You know I''m an African merchant, do n''t you?
36914You mean to say you have n''t found out yet?
36914You mean to tell me you do n''t know Le Breton runs that French actress, Lucille Lemesurier?
36914You will dare to kill him?
36914You will murder my father?
36914You''ll forgive me for not accepting that pretty necklace, wo n''t you?
36914You''ve got lots of money, have n''t you?
36914You''ve never been afraid of me before, why are you now, Pansy? 36914 ''Heart''s Ease,''do n''t you say in English?
36914Again, my heart, my heart What are we waiting for, you and I?
36914And at the age of five he said to her:"Why do you always call me''Raoul,''not''Casim,''as my father does?"
36914And the promise he had given her?
36914And to me you would say,''As a reward, will you come and have breakfast with me?''
36914And very often he would say:"Well, Pansy, have you made up your mind whether you are going to marry me or not?"
36914And was there not truth in what he said?
36914And yet you love me?"
36914Are n''t I here talking to you now?"
36914Are you English or American?"
36914Are you afraid you might love me?"
36914Are you not her Sultan and her master?
36914Are you still champion in your own little way?"
36914As a reward, will you come and have breakfast with me?"
36914As she came up the room, a man seated at one of the tables in the center of the room said to his neighbour:"Who is that girl?
36914As they stood looking at one another, a verse came and sang like a dirge in Pansy''s head: What are we waiting for?
36914At the sound a voice said in French, with a note of savage triumph:"Now perhaps_ you_ understand what_ I_ suffered when you shot my father?"
36914Because a Sultan loves you more than his life?
36914But about marrying?
36914But how did you manage to get hold of him?"
36914But what''s brought the girl to these parts?
36914But why had n''t he told her?
36914But why had n''t he wanted her to know?
36914Can I speak to him?"
36914Can you tell me where she''s gone?"
36914Do you hear?
36914Do you like him, Daddy?"
36914Do you think I''m pretty, Casim?"
36914Do you think he''ll refuse?"
36914Does she know of all your gay doings in Paris?"
36914God of all, what have I done to deserve such signs of Thy great goodness?
36914He paused, leaning over her he said:"I''m granting you all these favours, but what are you going to do for me?"
36914How can a man be satisfied with one woman?
36914How did_ you_ get here?"
36914If I sent them back, my little flower, do you know what would happen?
36914Is n''t that what you Christians say?
36914Is n''t that what you called it?"
36914Is n''t the combination enough to attract any man?"
36914Is there one?"
36914Le Breton, will you lend me your handkerchief?"
36914Le Breton?"
36914Le Breton?"
36914Let me see, what do you call the flower in English?"
36914Let me see, what_ was_ her name?
36914May there not have been love in the heart of the girl?
36914Merely because I refuse to be enslaved by any one woman, eaten up in mind and body and soul, as some of the men I know are?
36914Mine are not strong enough to keep you here?"
36914Nay, what knowest thou of love?
36914Nothing I can do for you?"
36914Or is she one whose price is above rubies?"
36914Rayma''s gaze rested jealously on the English girl,"Is it always what she likes, Casim, my Lord, and never what you wish?"
36914She never thought of Le Breton''s words:"Still only a few flowers, Pansy?"
36914So that''s what I am now, is it?
36914Suffering, and who yet had to go on smiling?
36914Then she heard her father''s voice, strained and anxious:"Pansy, are you in there?"
36914Was she a prisoner in the hands of that wild horde?
36914Were there other women there, suffering as she was suffering?
36914What Sultan?"
36914What are you thinking about?"
36914What dare I think?"
36914What desert harem would be her future home?
36914What do I look like-- to you?"
36914What do you mean?"
36914What do you want to say?"
36914What dost thou know of love, of life, in the strange countries of the East?
36914What had she to say to him, this slim, winsome girl, who held his fierce heart in her small white hands?
36914What had the girl to say to him?
36914What has happened to him?"
36914What more could I wish to know about you?
36914What price might she not have to pay for her father''s life?
36914What shall I be thinking?"
36914What wild chief would call that golden- haired girl his chattel?
36914What would the girl say when she saw him?
36914What would you say if you saw me there?
36914Where?"
36914Which has kept you on the prowl to- night?"
36914Who was your executioner?"
36914Why are you now, my little slave?
36914Why did she fight against him?
36914Why do n''t you wear something feminine?
36914Why had Dr. Edouard never mentioned him?
36914Why had Fate been so unkind?
36914Why had he never mentioned Dr. Edouard before?
36914Why had he pretended that he only had_ guessed_ she was the girl captured?
36914Why had she written?
36914Why should I show you any now?"
36914Why should n''t she marry the man she loved, even if it were going against all the canons of her society?
36914Why should she make him suffer through no fault of his own?
36914Why should she suffer herself?
36914Why was n''t he just like other men?
36914Will you give him nothing willingly now?
36914Will you make a thief of your Sultan?
36914Wilt thou love me?"
36914Would she try to plead with him or herself and her father?
36914Would that sweet, brave face go white at the knowledge of the fate before her?
36914Would this new slave''s presence bring him to the harem?
26240A common-- stump- tailed-- cur- dog?
26240A nigger dog? 26240 A vision?
26240About what time do you think your master, Colonel Cameron, will honour us with his presence?
26240Afraid they''ll nab me for something?
26240Ah, but will it be? 26240 Ai n''t I done tole you''bout runnin''away?"
26240Ai n''t I er nigger?
26240Always?
26240Am I right?
26240And Gus, the young scamp we used to own; you have n''t forgotten him? 26240 And by whose authority are you a judge?"
26240And did you learn to find all these birds''nests by yourself?
26240And do the rank and file know the Black Pope at the head of the order?
26240And he in love with all?
26240And how will you master and control these ten great Southern States?
26240And my dogs?
26240And my sweetheart, Marion Lenoir?
26240And now, my dear, what must I do to get the passes?
26240And the President paused amid a thousand cares to write that letter to a broken- hearted woman?
26240And what did he say?
26240And what is your message for the South?
26240And why did you nail up the doors of that Presbyterian church?
26240And why, pray?
26240And why?
26240And you are the dear girl who has been playing and singing for my boy, a wounded stranger here alone among his foes?
26240And you have not told me your name?
26240And you know the way?
26240And you the sheriff of this county trotted along in front to make the way smooth for your prisoner?
26240And you think of going back to farming?
26240And you think the South is ready for this wild vision?
26240And you think we will specially enjoy that?
26240And you will help our people lift this curse?
26240And you wo n''t be disappointed in my simple ideal that finds its all within a home?
26240And you''ll never keep a secret from me, dear?
26240And your ideal of life?
26240Are n''t you ashamed of yourself to flirt with me, with one foot in the grave?
26240Are we agreed, gentlemen?
26240Are you a fiend?
26240Are you dead again?
26240Are you the sheriff of this county?
26240Are your father''s poems published?
26240At the price of racial life? 26240 But defeat?"
26240But how did the vote fail-- it was all fixed before the roll- call?
26240But if everything else fail, and this creeping horror becomes a fact-- then what?
26240But where did you run up against hypnotism? 26240 But will your plans work?
26240Ca n''t you see that your so- called States are now but conquered provinces? 26240 Can you blame us for loving such a spot?"
26240Can you help me, dear?
26240Can you stand any more?
26240Could I see the President?
26240Defeat?
26240Des lak any white man?
26240Did Stanton say that I was a fool?
26240Did he dare to try?
26240Did he make love to you?
26240Did you see the little angel who has been playing and singing for me? 26240 Did you study medicine abroad?"
26240Do n''t wish to be protected, sheltered, and cared for?
26240Do you find much use for your powers of hypnosis?
26240Do you know what''s written on this paper, Uncle Aleck?
26240Do you know, my boy, that you have the heritage of royal blood? 26240 Do you know,"he said earnestly,"that you are the funniest, most charming girl I ever met?"
26240Do you love me very much?
26240Do you not fear my betrayal of your secret?
26240Do you think that man Stanton would dare defy the President?
26240Does Lynch?
26240Does he make love to every pretty girl?
26240Ef yer doan''b''long ter no s''iety,said Aleck with judicial deliberation,"what is you?"
26240En what''s de fee fer dat?
26240En will the Lawd''s messengers come wid me right now to de bend er de creek whar I done pick out my forty acres?
26240En yer ai n''t er No''f Ca''liny gemmen, is yer-- yer ai n''t er member er de''Red Strings?''
26240En yer pay no''tenshun ter de orders I sent yer ter jine de League?
26240Excuse-- me-- for-- asking-- but am I alive?
26240For what purpose, sir?
26240For what?
26240Forty acres and a mule for every black man-- why was I ever born white? 26240 Friends of yours?"
26240Got yer deed, is yer, ter stop me payin''my missy her rent fum de lan''my chillun wucks? 26240 Has Aunt Cindy come yet?"
26240Have I, too, sinned and come short?
26240Have n''t you heard what happened to his Honour last night?
26240Have we not had enough bloodshed? 26240 Have you been instructed to act under my orders?"
26240Have you let him see a preacher before putting him through?
26240Have you ordered a barber to shave this man''s head?
26240He is very popular in Piedmont?
26240Honest Injun, here on the sacred altar of the princess?
26240How could a Southerner discover this, if your own children did n''t know it?
26240How dare you strike that man, you devil?
26240How did you escape so soon?
26240How did you rescue him?
26240How do I feel?
26240How do you account for such powers?
26240How ole is you?
26240How on earth did you meet him?
26240How''s my little sis?
26240I suppose you issued an order silencing him from the ministry?
26240I thought the Union League a patriotic and social organization?
26240I thought you favoured the execution of the leaders of the rebellion?
26240I wonder if you know how I love you? 26240 I wonder if you know how important?"
26240I wonder whose will be the lucky name some day within it?
26240If I have n''t suffered in this war, who has?
26240If the negro were not here would we allow him to land?
26240In either event I go to a warmer climate, eh, doctor?
26240Is dat de deed?
26240Is n''t she God''s message to me and to the world?
26240Is n''t she at home?
26240Is n''t that enough?
26240Is n''t your aunt, Mrs. Farnham, the president of a club?
26240Is not the North equally responsible for slavery? 26240 Is that all?"
26240Is that the theatre?
26240Is that the way you escort prisoners before a court?
26240Is there no other way? 26240 Is yer er member er de Union League?"
26240Is you voted to- day?
26240Jeannie, you''re making an idol of her----"Why not? 26240 K. K. K.""Are you an officer of the Union League?"
26240Let''s see some of the goods, Aleck-- are they first class?
26240Look here, Ben Cameron, have you another girl somewhere you''re flirting with?
26240Look here, Stoneman; have you some deep personal motive in this vengeance on the South? 26240 Love your enemies?"
26240May I help you?
26240May I write it out in full-- Margaret Cameron-- Philip Stoneman?
26240May I?
26240Mr. Alexander Lenoir, sah-- is I yo''uncle, nigger?
26240Negro suffrage do n''t matter?
26240Nonsense, father-- you are possessed by an idea which has become an insane mania----"Will you respect my wishes?
26240Now what kind of a dog did I say you are?
26240Now, did n''t I tell you that you could n''t fool me? 26240 Ob cose, Dr. Cammun, you say nuffin''bout what I gwine tell you?"
26240Old Aleck still at home and getting drunk as usual?
26240Perhaps you will present my card, then-- say that I am at his service, and let him appoint the time at which I shall return?
26240Shall I bring the boys?
26240Sold for taxes?
26240Suppose Pickett had charged one hour earlier at Gettysburg? 26240 The preacher wo n''t be here?"
26240Then there''s hope for me?
26240Then why not begin at home this vision, and give the stricken South a moment to rise?
26240Then you do n''t believe this twaddle about equality?
26240Then you will give me one afternoon for a sail on the river to say good- bye and thank you for what you have done for me and mine?
26240Then you will write the President a letter asking that they be allowed to see Doctor Cameron?
26240Then you''ll fight and go back to her with me?
26240Then, how did you know I am a Southerner?
26240They say the rat labels were in a majority in this precinct-- how was that?
26240To the theatre?
26240Tryin''ter vote, is yer?
26240Well, I''m glad of that-- my mare all right?
26240Well, Mrs. Cameron, what did you think of the President?
26240Well, my man, what''s the trouble? 26240 Well, now, then, is this me, or is it not me, or has a cannon shot me, or has the devil got me?"
26240Well, upon my soul,said Ben, taking a deep breath and looking at Elsie,"he''s the whole thing, is n''t he?"
26240Well?
26240What ail it?
26240What ails my ideal?
26240What are you doing to him?
26240What can we do, my darling?
26240What cote? 26240 What did he say to you?"
26240What did he say?
26240What did they say to you?
26240What do you mean?
26240What do you mean?
26240What do you mean?
26240What do you see?
26240What do you think of it, Colonel Cameron?
26240What does it mean?
26240What does it mean?
26240What does it sound like?
26240What does that mean?
26240What else?
26240What happened there yesterday?
26240What is it, honey?
26240What is it, sir?
26240What is it?
26240What is the latest news?
26240What must I call him? 26240 What on earth are you going to do, sir?"
26240What right had you under the Constitution to declare war against a''sovereign''State? 26240 What shall I play?"
26240What then?
26240What will we do if Stanton arrests you one of these fine days?
26240What will you give me if I tease you about Margaret right before her?
26240What you doin''here, sah?
26240What''s that?
26240What''s the matter in there?
26240What''s the use of my expressing an opinion when you have already settled it?
26240What?
26240When are you going?
26240Where is Grant?
26240Where is Margaret?
26240Where is Stanton?
26240Where is he?
26240Where on earth did you find them?
26240Who are you?
26240Who said I was defeated? 26240 Who said I was going to die?"
26240Who said my lover was dumb?
26240Who''yer talkin to, sah? 26240 Why are such men intrusted with power?"
26240Why did n''t you walk beside him?
26240Why is it, sweetheart, that a girl will persist in admiring brass buttons?
26240Why not out with it?
26240Why should I be distressed for one, an enemy, among these thousands who have fallen?
26240Why so serious to- night?
26240Why, did n''t you know that my parents were Virginians, and that I was born in Kentucky?
26240Why, what''s all this, Aleck?
26240Why?
26240Why?
26240Will he live?
26240Will it be very difficult to reach the President?
26240Will the President be there, Captain?
26240Will you come to the hotel before they arrive?
26240Will you follow me while I lead you through this town, to show them their chief has fallen, or will you force me to drag you?
26240Will you grant my prayer?
26240Will you hear the prayer of a broken- hearted mother of the South, who has lost four sons in General Lee''s army?
26240Will you join us now, sir? 26240 Will you never breathe it to a soul if I do?"
26240Will you tell?
26240Will you vote?
26240With apologies to the dogs----"Apologies to the dogs----"And why does your master honour the kennel with his presence to- day?
26240With thousands of your own people disfranchised?
26240Wo n''t you give this all up for my sake?
26240Would you consider an offer of twenty dollars an acre?
26240Would you have let him?
26240Yet may we not train him?
26240You are determined to oppose negro suffrage?
26240You are initiating the negroes into the League and teaching them the new catechism?
26240You could have told that story only to the one man whom you love-- is it not true?
26240You do n''t mean it?
26240You doan b''long ter no s''iety, what yer git in dat line ter vote for?
26240You have just come from the Camerons?
26240You hear''bout de great sassieties de Gubment''s fomentin''in dis country?
26240You refuse to heed the wishes of Congress?
26240You remember the young man I pardoned for a similar offence in''62, about which Stanton made such a fuss?
26240You will let me kiss you? 26240 You will let me see him and thank him the moment he comes?"
26240You will not forget to tell him for me?
26240You wo n''t mind if I give you a few lessons in history, will you?
26240You''ll tell me all your love affairs?
26240You_ do n''t_ approve of such injustice?
26240Your decision is unalterable?
26240Your horse is a good one, my child?
26240Your land, Uncle Aleck? 26240 _ Almost_ to a man?"
26240A battle with United States troops now might mean ruin for the South----""But you will save him?"
26240Aleck recovered his dignity and demanded angrily:"Does yer belong ter de Heroes ob Americky?"
26240And yet you press this crime upon a brave and generous foe?"
26240Any further ecclesiastical orders?"
26240Are our skirts free?
26240Are the Night Hawks ready to submit their evidence?"
26240Are there any others?"
26240Are you given to visions?"
26240As the old Commoner hobbled through the door, his crooked cane thumping the marble floor, Sumner seized and pressed his hand:"How did you do it?"
26240Blanched with horror, the mother sprang before Marion with a shivering cry:"What do you want?"
26240But may it not all come out right in the end?
26240By what authority have you appointed military governors in the''sovereign''States of Virginia, Tennessee, and Louisiana?
26240Can Barbarism go Further?"
26240Can a man keep his face straight in such a world?
26240Can any one undo this pardon now?"
26240Can he control Stanton?
26240Can human flesh endure it?
26240Can we assimilate the negro?
26240Can you conceive the desolation of_ my_ heart?
26240Can you help me?"
26240Could he win her?
26240Could it be possible they had ventured too near the brink and fallen over?
26240Could negro blood degrade such stock?
26240Dat ole army cote?"
26240Did he aim to make this woman the arbiter of its social life, and her ethics the limit of its moral laws?
26240Did you say--_Phil_?"
26240Did you say_ Marse_ Ben?
26240Do you know Mr. Johnson?
26240Do you own a store?"
26240Dr. Cameron turned pale, and trembling with excitement, asked his friend:"Can that man pass such measures, and the Governor sign them?"
26240Elsie saw the look of helpless appeal in the mother''s face and hurried forward to meet her:"Is this Mrs. Cameron, of South Carolina?"
26240Had you noticed it, Margaret?"
26240Has not the South lost all?
26240Have not the Southern people paid the full penalty of all the crimes of war?
26240Have you been sent to place these irons on me?"
26240Hawk, as Dundreary, was speaking his lines and looking directly at the President instead of at the audience:"Society, eh?
26240He can not pretend that these shackles are needed to hold a weak unarmed man in prison, guarded by two hundred soldiers?"
26240He gasped for breath, sank into his seat, looked around, and said:"Will you close the door?"
26240He sank exhausted in his chair, and, extending his hand in an eloquent gesture, continued:"Surely, surely, sir, the people of the North are not mad?
26240He took Ben''s place just before the guards were exchanged----""Phil!--Phil?"
26240His old master transfixed him with his eyes, and in a voice, whose tones gripped him by the throat, said:"How dare you?"
26240His very presence before them an open defiance of love and life and death, would not his word ring omnipotent when the verdict was rendered?
26240How I''ve dreamed of your future?
26240How can a human being stand it?
26240How can a man live in this world and keep his face straight?"
26240How do we account for sleep and dreams, or second sight, or the day dreams which we call visions?"
26240How do you like it?"
26240How long, O Lord?
26240I never saw a female idiot in my life-- did you?"
26240I thought this a new thing under the sun?"
26240I wish to take you to the theatre to- night, if you will go?"
26240In your soul of souls you do n''t believe in the equality of man if the man under comparison be a negro?"
26240Instinctively he stopped, surveyed the man from head to foot and asked:"What''s the trouble?"
26240Is civilization a patent cloak with which law- tinkers can wrap an animal and make him a king?"
26240Is dat de straight ticket?"
26240Is n''t he handsome?
26240Is n''t it the distant beat of horses''hoofs?"
26240Is not God''s vengeance enough?
26240Is the respondent, Andrew Johnson, guilty or not guilty of a high misdemeanor as charged in this article?"
26240Is you er hero?"
26240It was Papa''s study just as he left it, with his papers scattered on the desk, the books and pictures that he loved-- you wo n''t mind?"
26240May I go?"
26240May I, again?"
26240May not the black man speedily emerge?
26240McAllister?"
26240Might not an ape improve it?
26240Must I say''Your Excellency?''"
26240Must we wait in line?"
26240No?
26240Now that they have taken me at my word, shall I betray them by an ignoble revenge?
26240Now that we have won, and established for all time its unity, shall we stultify ourselves by declaring we were wrong?
26240Now, will you go?"
26240On the brink of the precipice, the mother trembled, paused, drew back, and gasped:"Are you not afraid, my dear?"
26240Our party has lost its first President, but gained a god-- why mourn?"
26240Over the solemn trembling silence the voice of the Chief Justice rang:"Senator Ross, how say you?
26240Phil looked at the freshly cut circle and laughed:"I wonder if Marion or her mother did that?"
26240President?"
26240Shall they return to rule?"
26240She attempted to rise, and cried in rage:"How dare you, black brutes?"
26240Stanton?"
26240Stoneman snorted in disgust:"Will you ask the Mayor to call to see me at once?"
26240Stoneman''s face was a thundercloud as he scrambled to his feet and glared at Aleck:"_ Marse_ Ben?
26240Suppose the_ Monitor_ had arrived one hour later at Hampton Roads?
26240Tell him to hold five hundred men ready for action in the woods by the river and the rest in reserve two miles out of town----""May I go with her?"
26240That North Carolina and other waste territories of the United States are unfit to associate with civilized communities?"
26240The Lieutenant approached and remonstrated:"Why compel me to add the indignity of personal violence?
26240The doctor-- has-- not-- concealed-- his-- true-- condition-- from-- me?"
26240The election judge straightened himself up with great dignity:"What wuz de rapscallion doin''?"
26240They began to cry, and he said with a smile:"Come now-- do you love me?"
26240To blockade a port?
26240To create the State of West Virginia by the consent of two states, one of which was dead, and the other one of which lived in Ohio?
26240To declare slaves free?
26240To invade one for coercion?
26240To suspend the writ of_ habeas corpus_?
26240Turning to Dr. Cameron, he asked:"Why should they put a brute like this in charge of the poor?"
26240Was Sherman''s march a picnic?
26240Was he too late?
26240Was his the mysterious arm back of Stanton?
26240Was she cold and incapable of love?
26240We can yet appeal to the conscience and the brain of our brethren of a common race?"
26240Were they not the children of her soul in that larger, finer world of which she had dreamed and sung?
26240Were you there?"
26240What could it mean?
26240What do you know against him?"
26240What does your lover think of it all?
26240What else matters?
26240What have I done?"
26240What is it?"
26240What more do you want?"
26240What shall I do?"
26240What ud yer do widout er man lak me enjued wid de sperit en de power ter splain tings?"
26240What will happen in the South?
26240What''s that?"
26240When did you ever know me to deny my help to a weak man or woman in distress?"
26240When did you get it?"
26240Whence came this miracle of influence about him, this gift of intimacy?
26240Who knows?
26240Who''s he?"
26240Why beat your wings against the thing that is and must be?
26240Why should she give them up now for brutal politics?
26240Why trim the hedge and lie about it?
26240Will you be kind enough to explain to this court what has happened to you lately to so miraculously change your manners?"
26240Would Congress follow the lead of the President or challenge him to mortal combat?
26240Would Grant, the Commanding General of the Army, dare protest?
26240Would not his name be a terror for every man and woman born under Southern skies?
26240Would the Southerners be allowed to enter?
26240Yet-- would he dare?
26240You did n''t refuse Henry Grier because you loved Ben Cameron-- now, did you?"
26240You do n''t approve of such things, I know?"
26240You do n''t mind black cats, do you?"
26240You do n''t mind jay- birds, do you?"
26240You know Margaret, too, do n''t you?"
26240You met him in Washington, did n''t you?"
26240You understand?"
26240You wo n''t let anybody hurt him?"
26240Your perfect trust to- night is the sweetest revelation that can come to a woman''s soul and yet it brings to me unspeakable pain----""For what?"
26240and from what secret cave will this whirlwind come?"
26240said Ben;"if you ca n''t ratify with a rat, I''d like to know why?"
26240when they realize its meaning, whose arm will be strong enough to hold them?"
10549Am I then so sleepy?
10549Am I then still capable of being moved by such tones?
10549And Tulee and the baby?
10549And did you send for me hoping to convert me from the error of my ways?
10549And do n''t you care about my being colored and a slave?
10549And do you expect me to wait till the old Yankee dies?
10549And do you still love me as well as you ever did?
10549And from that height can you say to me,''Obey the call of duty, Florimond''?
10549And nobody else will be glad, I suppose?
10549And pray what were you thinking about_ me_?
10549And that queenly beauty, where is she? 10549 And what good would freedom do me without you, Henny?"
10549And what has become of Signor and Madame Papanti?
10549And where is the sister?
10549And, pray, who is Florimond Blumenthal?
10549Are they paid for?
10549Are you Mr. Fitzgerald''s Tom?
10549Are you afraid of anything?
10549Are you so afraid of me?
10549Are you?
10549But ca n''t we contrive some way to take poor Tulee with us?
10549But how can I help it?
10549But where are Tulee and the baby? 10549 But where can we go when we get to the North?"
10549But why does that excite your interest?
10549But why were you there? 10549 But why will you persist in making yourself and me unhappy?
10549Can the death of Floracita be apocryphal?
10549Can you think of any one who had intimate relations with him, of whom I could learn something about that connection?
10549Capital match for Gerald, eh?
10549Could he be capable of selling her? 10549 Could n''t a subscription be raised, or an appeal be made to some court in their behalf?"
10549Could n''t we go into Papasito''s garden one little minute, and take one sip from the fountain, and just one little walk round the orange- grove?
10549Did I make a false note?
10549Did Mr. Fitzgerald die before you left?
10549Did he marry her in the French Islands?
10549Did he?
10549Did n''t you know he was an Abolitionist?
10549Did n''t you telegraph that you were coming? 10549 Did she send you to tell me so?"
10549Did she? 10549 Did you ask him not to mention your former name?"
10549Did you ever hear of any family not legitimated by law?
10549Did you ever hear of anybody that liked being a slave?
10549Did you plant them?
10549Did your friends the Fitzgeralds return with you?
10549Do I_ remember_ it?
10549Do n''t you remember that Mr. King from Boston, who came to see us a year ago? 10549 Do n''t you think she''s a pretty little creature?"
10549Do you always call him Florimond?
10549Do you doubt my love?
10549Do you know whether Mr. Bruteman sold those slaves after they were sent back?
10549Do you mean the Aunt Rosa I was named for?
10549Do you mean the Mr. Fitzgerald who married my daughter Lily?
10549Do you really wish it?
10549Do you see that pretty little creature crossing the garden? 10549 Do you suppose any servant could sing_ that_?"
10549Do you suppose he''d give five thousand dollars for the young niggers?
10549Do you suppose my rich uncle would leave me a cent if he found out I had married the daughter of a quadroon?
10549Do you suppose you are going to make_ all_ the sacrifices?
10549Do you take me for a mean Yankee,exclaimed he indignantly,"that you propose such an account of dollars and cents?"
10549Do you think they ought to be informed of the present circumstances?
10549Does he expect to keep you here always?
10549Does it equal your expectations, dear?
10549Has he ever told you that he loved_ you_ as well as your name?
10549Has she been informed that the young man is found?
10549Has she vulgar, disagreeable relations, who would be likely to be intrusive?
10549Hast thou brought a letter from the woman''s husband?
10549Have you seen anything of Floracita?
10549How are they getting on there?
10549How can I be otherwise than sorry,she asked,"when I am all alone in the world without you?
10549How can I do it,rejoined he,"without putting myself in the power of those cursed creditors?
10549How can you wonder at it?
10549How could I help remembering you?
10549How do you know my perseverance would be useless?
10549How do you know that,_ sistita mia_?
10549How is that possible,inquired Mr. Bruteman,"when you have married the daughter of a Boston nabob?"
10549How shall we get there? 10549 How then_ could_ she be his slave?"
10549How was it possible that Mr. Royal neglected to manumit her?
10549How will Brother King like it?
10549How yer know dat ar?
10549I am to go with you, am I not?
10549I have given you my promise, and do you suppose I have no sense of honor?
10549I have n''t been there,he replied;"but why are you out here, Lily, when I particularly requested you to stay in the house till I came?"
10549I mean how did that bargain turn out that you made with Royal''s creditors? 10549 I ought to do the same for them without that motive,"thought she;"but should I?"
10549If he thought that I myself was a suitable wife for his serene highness, what had my great- grandmother to do with it? 10549 If such good friends had n''t been raised up for us in these dreadful days, what_ should_ we have done?"
10549If you do n''t intend to take him from me, what was the use of telling me this dreadful story?
10549Is it certain the young ladies are slaves?
10549Is it possible,he exclaimed,"that you mean to say she is your adopted daughter?"
10549Is it possible?
10549Is it really so?
10549Is it then impossible for me to inspire you with sentiments similar to my own?
10549Is n''t God_ very_ good to us?
10549Is n''t it amusing to hear such an infant trying to abuse us with a big mouthful of a word, to which she attaches no meaning?
10549Is n''t it? 10549 Is she engaged, or partially engaged, to another?"
10549Is she lovesick then?
10549Is such a thing possible in this country?
10549Is that one of the daughters we have heard spoken of?
10549Is there anything I can do for you now?
10549Is your mistress up yet?
10549Is_ she_ a flower too?
10549It was during our honeymoon,replied her husband;"and how could I be interested in any other voice, when I had yours to listen to?"
10549Just so,replied his host;"''cause they''ve got the same extinguisher on; and ai n''t it curious to see''em puffing and blowing at the old lamp?
10549May I ask whether you intend to renew your engagement?
10549O Tulee, what is that?
10549O, have n''t I told you? 10549 O, how came you to leave them?"
10549O, you disremember them, do you?
10549O,_ may_ I call you Mamita?
10549Pray what has he done?
10549Pray what is its origin?
10549Rosa, do you distrust me?
10549Shall I accompany you while you sing,''How brightly breaks the morning''?
10549Shall you go to the North soon?
10549She''s a beautiful lady,said she to Flora;"but if she''s got plenty o''money, what makes her dress so innocent and dull?
10549So you are an Abolitionist?
10549So you knew me?
10549So you''d like to be free, would you?
10549Sure enough, what_ should_ I do, my little flower?
10549The good German boy that Papasito took such an interest in?
10549Then they generally wanted their freedom, did they?
10549Then we will kiss good night,_ sistita mia_?
10549Then why ca n''t I go right off to the United States to- day?
10549Then you consider women and children_ property_?
10549Then you do not hate me?
10549Then you will secure them immediately, wo n''t you, dear?
10549Was he the one who seized that negro woman and the child?
10549Was n''t it funny,said he,"to hear that baby calling us Bob- o- lith- o- nithts?
10549Was she willing to be left?
10549Was the black woman who died there named Tulee?
10549Well, sir, what interest do you suppose I can take in all this?
10549Whar d''yer git dem year- rings?
10549What are all these comforts and splendors compared with the rescue of my country, and the redemption of an oppressed race? 10549 What are they going to do?"
10549What are you going to do with yourself this evening, Alfred?
10549What did you tell me_ that_ for?
10549What do you think I ought to do in the premises?
10549What do you wish for, gentlemen?
10549What does he make that horrid noise for?
10549What has happened to her?
10549What have you ever seen in me, Mr. Fitzgerald, that has led you to suppose I would consent to sell myself?
10549What have you to be afraid of, darling?
10549What is it you want me to do?
10549What is it, then, my pet? 10549 What is it?"
10549What is thy given name?
10549What is thy name?
10549What octoroon girls?
10549What possible advantage can you gain by such a course?
10549What reason have you to think so?
10549What right have_ you_ to order me out of the house?
10549What sum do you propose to offer?
10549What the deuce do you suppose I care about his octoroon daughters?
10549What was her character in Rome?
10549What, come again?
10549What, does this Mr. Robbem carry on the Deacon''s old business?
10549What_ is_ the matter, my child? 10549 What_ is_ the matter, my child?"
10549What_ was_ the dreadful thing that was going to happen, papa?
10549When will you come again?
10549Where art thou from?
10549Where can I find Captain Kane?
10549Where''s Chloe?
10549Where_ is_ there any new place?
10549Where_ will_ you go, then?
10549Which do you prefer?
10549Which one?
10549Who is Father Snowdon?
10549Who is the happy man?
10549Who''s Jack?
10549Why could n''t we live abroad?
10549Why did n''t you tell me, you black rascal?
10549Why did you ask him that question?
10549Why do n''t you go to some new place then?
10549Why in such haste?
10549Why should I care for everybody''s head?
10549Why uselessly expose yourself to disagreeable notoriety, which must, of course, place Mrs. Fitzgerald in a mortifying position?
10549Will she renew her engagement, think you?
10549Will they sell the piano that papa gave to Rosa for a birthday present?
10549Will they sell the table and boxes Mamita painted, and the ottomans she embroidered?
10549Wo n''t you give me back my kiss, when I''ve been gone a whole week?
10549Would it be a breach of confidence to tell me who has been so fortunate as to attract her?
10549Would it be too great a liberty, ma''am, to ask which of you ladies plays?
10549Would it trouble you very much if you had?
10549Would you be willing to receive him as a partner?
10549Would you then leave Mamita Lila so suddenly?
10549Yes, Tulipa? 10549 Yo like it yerself, do n''t ye, little missy?"
10549You lazy black rascal,he exclaimed,"did n''t I order you to have the horse ready by this time?"
10549_ Cher papa_, how long before we shall go to Paris?
10549_ Must_ you go, my son?
10549_ Provide_ for me?
10549_ What_ must be stopped, my dear?
10549_ Whose_ slave could she be, when she was Papasito''s wife, and he loved her so? 10549 A few days afterward, when Flora returned from taking a lesson in oil- colors, she said:How do you suppose I have offended Mr. Green?
10549A few hours after, she asked, with head averted from her attendant,"Has any one been here since I have been ill?"
10549A few individuals, who knew Mr. Fitzgerald, said,"What, are you among the creditors?"
10549A little thrown off his guard, Mr. Bell exclaimed:"And give an Abolition mob a chance to rescue them?
10549A soft little hand touched his head, and a feminine voice inquired,"What are you thinking of, Gerald?"
10549A very gentle and refined voice, from behind a clump of evergreens, said,"Is this Cinderella coming from the ball?"
10549After a struggle with herself, she said:"Do you realize how hard is a soldier''s life?
10549After a while, he said, slowly,"Do you deem it quite right, Mrs. Delano, to pass such a counterfeit on society?"
10549After remaining very still a few moments, Rosabella said softy,"Would n''t you like to hear some music before you go to bed,_ Papasito mio_?"
10549After the lapse of a few moments, he came to her, saying,"O Tulee, do you think she''s going to die?
10549All at once he said,"Fitzgerald, did you ever find those handsome octoroon girls?"
10549And how could I have helped falling on your neck when you sang''_ Madre mia_''?
10549And how the mocking- bird imitated your guitar, while you were singing the Don Giovanni serenade?
10549And if it be so, why did you not tell me of it?"
10549And is it not your birthday?"
10549And perhaps you can guess who it was that made me in love with bubbling over?"
10549And then, would it be right to conceal her antecedents?
10549And were not the new arrangements at Magnolia Lawn a sign that he had accomplished his generous purpose?
10549And why did you keep yourself invisible?"
10549And why does he pass me without speaking?"
10549And why does she conceal from me where she lives?
10549Are they down below?"
10549Are you willing I should use it to buy clothes for Chloe and her children?"
10549As he passed out, Rosa whispered to her mother,"What does he mean about a deacon''s selling women and children?"
10549As soon as they were alone, she said,"Tulee, where is the baby?"
10549As the lady led the way into the parlor, she said,"What is that you have in your hand, my dear?"
10549At last Flora murmured,"Is she dead?"
10549At last, his master said to him one day,"You''ve been to the cottage, I suppose, Tom?"
10549Brick describe Mr. Fitzgerald''s runaway slave?"
10549Brick, the police- officer?
10549Bright entered the room, saying,"Have you a bottle of sal volatile you can lend me?
10549Bright''s offer?"
10549Bright?"
10549But coming to his senses immediately, he inquired,"How can it be that your son passes for Mrs. Fitzgerald''s son?
10549But how do you suppose I can keep hold of the tail of the Air, if you send me chasing after it through so many capricious variations?
10549But if he is in love with me, why do n''t he tell me so?
10549But is it the truth he told her about settling with the creditors?
10549But ought I not to consider myself a lucky fellow to have two such mothers?
10549But perhaps you''ll let me_ sing_ hurrah, Mamita?"
10549But the tone was so sad that he took her hand with the tenderness of former times, and said,"You are sorry to part with me, Bella Rosa?"
10549But what is this, Floracita?"
10549But when he said,"Tulee, how is your mistress?"
10549But why do you wish to know?"
10549But would it be asking too great a favor, Madame, to be allowed to see the young ladies, and place in their hands these presents from their father?"
10549But, Florimond, did you notice anything peculiar in the meeting between Alfred and Eulalia?"
10549Ca n''t we go to- morrow to look for her, dear Mamita?"
10549Can he claim her here in Boston?"
10549Can you forgive me?
10549Can you tell us where they have gone?"
10549Could it be that there were such creatures in the woods as Shakespeare described?
10549Could n''t a doctor save her?"
10549Dear Gerald, are we always to live thus?
10549Delano?''
10549Did you ever see anything more roguish than her expression while she was singing''Petit blanc, mon bon frère''?"
10549Did you never suspect that Mr. Green was in love with you?"
10549Did you not?"
10549Did you see the stage stop there, last night?
10549Do n''t you find it very tiresome, Mamita, to be always remembering what is the custom?
10549Do ye s''pose ye had them handsome eyes for nothin''but to look at the moon?
10549Do you enjoy the career on which you have entered?"
10549Do you object to my asking her to come in and tell us something about her experiences?"
10549Do you remember Florimond Blumenthal?"
10549Do you remember how happy we were in the garden bower?
10549Do you remember how many variations you rung upon my name,--Rosabella, Rosalinda, Rosamunda, Rosa Regina?
10549Do you remember how you laughed because he offered to help us if ever we were in trouble?
10549Do you remember she used to call me Florimond when I was a little boy, because, she said, my face was so florid?
10549Do you think I have offended him in any way?"
10549Do you think I shall let dear Alfred''s little daughter go wandering alone about the world?
10549Do you think I was?"
10549Do you think it is necessary to tell Mrs. Fitzgerald of this?"
10549Do you think she was unhappy?"
10549Do you think there is no hope it may prove untrue?"
10549Do you think, Mrs. Delano, that it would do your daughter any serious injury to go with us this evening?
10549Fitzgerald?"
10549Fitzgerald?"
10549Flora, who felt her heart rising in her throat, tossed back her veil, and said,"Tom, do n''t you know me?"
10549Floracita looked at her sister, and said, hesitatingly:"Could n''t you write to Mr. Fitzgerald, and ask_ him_ to come here?
10549Floracita skipped out on the piazza, calling after him,"Papa, what_ is_ polyglot?"
10549Floracita started up, screaming,"What is that?"
10549Forgetful of her momentary fear, she sprang toward him, exclaiming:"Are you a wizard?
10549Gently moving young Fitzgerald aside, he said in a low tone,"Are you not well, my dear?"
10549Have you anything to object to my character or family?"
10549Have you ever seen anybody with Floracita since we came here?"
10549Have you the hair of some friend set in it?"
10549Having made a short bow, he said,"Mrs. Delano, I suppose?"
10549He ca n''t take me here in Boston, and carry me off, can he?"
10549He probably did not like the business of guarding slaves; for one night he whispered to G.F.,''Ca n''t you swim?''
10549He raised her tenderly, and, imprinting a kiss on her forehead, said:"Save you, my precious Rose?
10549He rose as they entered, and Rosa said, with one of her sweetest smiles,"What is it you wish, dear friend?"
10549He turned and smiled upon her, as he answered:"So my fingers were moving to the tune of''Long, long ago,''were they?
10549He''d give his biggest diamond for such a dancer as Floracita; and what is his Flower of the World compared to my Rosamunda?"
10549His first exclamation was,"Is n''t that girl a Rose Royal?"
10549How could I have borne your tones of anguish when you discovered that you were connected with the Borgias?
10549How could I introduce them to_ her_?"
10549How did you get there, when two minutes ago you were peeping at me through the veranda lattice?"
10549How does that strike you, Mamita?"
10549How is Mrs. King?
10549How much for this likely nigger?
10549How we sang together the old- fashioned canzonet,''Love in thine eyes forever plays''?
10549How''s turrer picaninny?"
10549I do not think I am destined to long life; and who will protect them when I am gone?"
10549I must obtain a legal ownership of them; but how shall I manage it?"
10549If Alfred had been here this morning, he would have exclaimed,''Is n''t he jolly?''"
10549Is it not your duty so to instruct him?"
10549Is it you, Missy Flory?
10549Is my little one tired?"
10549Is n''t he kind?"
10549Is n''t it funny?
10549Is n''t she here?"
10549Is this the way you keep your word?"
10549King?"
10549Let me see, what was her_ nomme de guerre_?
10549Madame Guirlande smiled as she thought to herself,"What is he but a boy now?
10549Madame swung back and forth in the vehemence of her agitation, exclaiming,"What_ is_ to be done?
10549Mamita Lila, did n''t you say papa was a poor clerk when you and he first began to love one another?"
10549May I ask whether you know anything about my parents?"
10549May I say,_ Au revoir_?"
10549Mr. King alighted, and inquired,"Is this Mr. Houseman''s farm, sir?"
10549Mrs. Blumenthal smiled as she inquired,"What did you mean by saying he sold women and children?"
10549Mrs. Delano hastened to enfold her in her arms, saying:"What is it, my child?
10549Mrs. Robbem met Mr. King as soon as he entered her father''s door, and said in a tone of stern surprise,"Where is my servant, sir?"
10549O my God, is there_ no_ place of refuge for the slave?"
10549One evening, as he sat leaning his head on his hand, Flora said,"What are you thinking of, Florimond?"
10549Only tell me one thing,--is he kind to you?"
10549Pray, on whose testimony do you expect me to believe such an improbable fiction?"
10549Presently Floracita came running in, saying, in a flurried way,"Who are those men down stairs, Rosa?"
10549Rosa''s cheeks glowed, as she answered proudly:"Do you think I would_ ask_ him to come?
10549Rosa, are you not willing to give me up for the safety of the country, and the freedom of your mother''s race?"
10549Rosabella noticed it, and, looking up, said,"What troubles you, dear friend?"
10549Rosabella was obviously agitated, but she readily replied,"Do you suppose, Papasito, that we would accept a lover without asking you about it?
10549Rosabella, pale and trembling, gasped out,"What has happened to my father?"
10549Sha''n''t we be happy there, calling one another all the old foolish pet names?
10549Shall I take you there in the barouche to- morrow?"
10549She bowed her head in silence for a while; then, rising up, she said:"Have I not my lovely Eulalia?
10549She looked at him anxiously, as she asked,"Then it does not make you love me less?"
10549She looked up quickly and earnestly, and said,"What would you advise me?"
10549She opened the door and said,"Tulee, are you there?
10549She rose on his entrance, and moved a chair toward him; and when he said, half timidly,"How do you do now, dear Rosa?"
10549She smiled as he spoke, and she said,"Then it has not made you so_ very_ unhappy to know that you are my son?"
10549She started to run into the house, but upon second thought she called out,"Gerald, you rogue, why did n''t you speak to let me know you were there?"
10549She started up, as if struck by a sudden thought, and exclaimed wildly,"What if he has sold Rosa?"
10549She stood awhile on the veranda, thinking sadly,"If Gerald loves me as Papasito loved Mamita, how can he be contented to leave me so much?"
10549She stooped toward her, and softly inquired,"What is the matter, dear?"
10549She was thinking to herself,"What_ would_ my father say?"
10549She went hopping and jumping up to Madame, exclaiming:"What do you think is going to happen now?
10549She went on to say, in a tone of perplexity:"What_ can_ have occasioned such a change in his manner?
10549She went to the kitchen and said,"Tulee, have you seen anything of Floracita lately?
10549Slavery?
10549Sometimes he would laugh, and say:"Am I not a lucky dog?
10549Somewhat mollified by this proposal, the old gentleman inquired in a milder tone,"And where is the young man who you say is my daughter''s son?"
10549Tell me frankly, Rosa, do you love this young man?"
10549The Signor, as he went out with the music, said,"Do you suppose she did n''t want him to know about the_ bambino_?"
10549The compliment disarmed her at once; and with one of her winning smiles, and a quick little courtesy, she said:"Do you think it''s a pretty name?
10549The third time we met, I said,''What is your name?''
10549The thought passed through his mind,"Would he marry Rosabella?"
10549Then turning round on the music- stool she looked at her father, and said,"Now,_ Papasito querido_, what shall I sing for you?"
10549Then, as if impatient with himself, he murmured, in a vexed tone,"Why should I_ think_ of introducing them to my mother?
10549They wo n''t come here, will they?"
10549This train of thought was arrested by the inward question,"What is it to_ me_ whether he marries her or not?"
10549Thrown off his guard by too much wine, Fitzgerald vociferated,"Do you mean to insinuate that I am no gentleman?"
10549Tom looked at her in a very earnest, embarrassed way, and said:"Missis, am yer one ob dem Ab- lish- nishts dar in de Norf, dat Massa swars''bout?"
10549Turning toward Flora, he said,"I suppose it would be too much trouble to play me a tune?"
10549Was that baby yours, dear?"
10549Was the fire of first- love still smouldering in her soul, and did a delicate consideration for him lead her to conceal it?
10549Was_ I_ happy in the splendid marriage they made for_ me_?
10549We wo n''t be afraid of the Boston gentleman, will we?"
10549Well now,_ is_ it you, little one?"
10549Well, what now, Mignonne?"
10549What are you doing here?
10549What are you going to do with yourself, Cousin Alfred?"
10549What can be the meaning of it?"
10549What can it be?
10549What could I do but despise such a man?
10549What could have induced you to take such a step?"
10549What if it should be one of those dreadful creditors come here to peep and pry?
10549What is it, Mamita?
10549What is it?"
10549What is my life, compared with the life of this Republic?
10549What is the matter with my little one?"
10549What part of the South was it?"
10549What shall we ever do to repay you?"
10549What shall you tell them about us when you get back from Nassau?"
10549What the devil can you ask more?"
10549What was your father''s name?"
10549What_ can_ we do, dear?
10549What_ could_ I do but run away?
10549What_ is_ to be done?"
10549When he came to the interchange of writings, she sprung to her feet, and, clutching his arm convulsively, exclaimed,"Did he do that?"
10549When he had gone, Madame said,"Do you suppose he does all this on account of the friendship of their fathers?"
10549When he met any of the creditors, he would sometimes ask, carelessly,"Any news yet about those slaves of Royal''s?"
10549When she came in, Mrs. Delano said,"So you had an escort home?"
10549When she returned, Rosa ran out with the eager inquiry,"Is she anywhere in sight?"
10549When she went singing up stairs that night, Mrs. Delano smiled to herself as she said,"What_ am_ I to do with this mercurial young creature?
10549When they came in sight of the carriage, the driver began to bum carelessly to himself,"Who goes there?
10549When they met again at supper her friend said:"Why so serious?
10549Where are they?"
10549Where do you live, my dear?"
10549Where_ can_ she be?"
10549Who could papa''s friend be that left me a legacy?
10549Who is she?"
10549Who is this new Mamita that you speak of?"
10549Why ca n''t you go with us to- night?"
10549Why do n''t you come?"
10549Why had she become so reserved?
10549Why not consent to live with me as your mother lived with your father?"
10549Why then do you not confide to me what it is that troubles you?"
10549Why will you not be reasonable, dearest?
10549Will it pain you too much to hear something disparaging to the memory of your deceased husband?"
10549Will you have the goodness to ring for my shawl?"
10549Will you name your terms now, or shall I call again?".
10549Will you never acknowledge me as your wife?"
10549Will you please to help me, Mamita Lila?"
10549Will you send the papers next week?"
10549Will you, without mentioning the subject to her, enable me to have a private interview with her to- morrow morning?"
10549With a look of utter distress, Rosa threw herself between them, saying, in imploring accents,"_ Will_ you go?"
10549With head proudly erect, nostrils dilated, and eyes that flashed fire, she exclaimed,"How dare you come here?"
10549Without answering the question, she said,"Will you have the goodness to write it now?"
10549Without looking up, she answered, very pensively:"Do you think I ever shall, Tulee?
10549Wo n''t she be in her element?
10549Wo n''t they sympathize grandly?
10549Wondering what sudden caprice had seized the emotional child, she said,"Why, are you ill, dear?"
10549You like sunshine, do n''t you, Manon?"
10549You never saw anybody so red as he was, when he held out his hand and said, in such a surprised way,''Miss Royal, is it you?''
10549You remember that dead pine- tree?
10549You surely do not hate me?"
10549or is it a sperit?
10549she said, in a voice choked with emotion,"You are not ashamed to call me mother?"
15402''Bijah? 15402 ''How dared you?''
15402''The letter?'' 15402 ''This?''
15402''Why,''said the Captain,--''why, any more from the North than from the South?''
15402''Will you write the letter?'' 15402 Ah, Miss Sallie, is it you?
15402Ah, you''ve come to yourself, have you? 15402 Ambitious?"
15402And this black man,--what of him? 15402 And what may that be?"
15402And where did you come from?--no, you need n''t look back there again,--I mean, where did you and the boat too come from?
15402And why stay? 15402 And will heed?"
15402Anything to get out of town? 15402 Are Mrs. Lancaster and Miss Ercildoune not in?"
15402Are you aching for the martyr''s palm?
15402Are you hungry?
15402As clown or grindstone?--to make laugh, or sharpen your wits upon?
15402As with what?
15402Ask me no more: what answer should I give? 15402 At the same engines, and the like, do you mean?"
15402Aunt Alice,said Francesca a few days after that,"can you go to New York this afternoon or to- morrow morning?"
15402Because why? 15402 Better?"
15402But they left a note, perhaps,--or some message?
15402Can you sing it, and mean it with all your heart, for me?
15402Come, now, are you hungry?
15402Cynical?
15402Did n''t you go in pursuit of a dead man?
15402Did the dead man convert you?
15402Did you ever read about the man who was told that the facts did not sustain his theory, and of his sublime answer? 15402 Did you suppose that he loved you sufficiently to destroy''an invincible barrier?''"
15402Did you think fate would be more merciful to you than to others?
15402Did_ he_ help you to behold it; to discover, or to remember it? 15402 Do n''t what?"
15402Do you know when?
15402Do you know you were reported mortally wounded? 15402 Do you mean it?"
15402Do you see the barrier now?
15402Does any one know aught of Miss Ercildoune''s family save that Mrs. Lancaster is her aunt?
15402Does he love you?
15402Done? 15402 Echo of nothingness?"
15402Ercildoune? 15402 Far from here?"
15402Feel? 15402 Forget?
15402Franklin?
15402Freedmen?
15402From what depot did they leave?
15402Get rid of it,mused Jim,"how in thunder''ll I get rid of it if I do n''t hear from Sallie?
15402Given?
15402Good morning, Miss Sallie,says he,"how are you?
15402Got any objection to telling a lie?
15402Had n''t you sense enough to see they could keep the whole of it, and nobody the wiser? 15402 Has Snipe been round?"
15402Have any of you seen the Fifty- fourth?
15402He is cleanly?
15402Her right to remain?
15402Hey?
15402Homely? 15402 How am I to know what they thought?
15402I guess thee is sorry now that thee did n''t keep out of it, is n''t thee?
15402I may see you there?
15402I say, Captain, I''ve heard that some of your ancestors were Indians: is that so?
15402I say, ca n''t you?
15402I say, how came you to be starved? 15402 I-- how should I know?
15402Intelligent?
15402Irritable?
15402Is he there now?
15402Is it allowable, then, to ask why he was discarded?
15402Is it rude to ask if your father was the same? 15402 Is it so?"
15402Is that efficacious?
15402It was there you lost your arm?
15402It was there you were last wounded?
15402Met him anywhere?
15402Miss Howard''s traps done?
15402Miss-- Miss-- what''s her name? 15402 Mr. Ercildoune,"said he, aloud,"you know something of me?
15402Mrs. Lancaster goes back to England soon?
15402Name?
15402No matter,he said to himself;"it''ll be all well, or forgotten, at least, when I see Sallie once more; and so, what odds?"
15402No? 15402 No?
15402No?
15402Nor none of the foremen?
15402Not about the eyes?
15402Not exactly; Lieutenant Hunt was drowned somewhere, was n''t he?
15402Now, sir, what do you want?
15402O Frankie, do n''t I?
15402O Miss Ercildoune, will you let me do your work at your own home? 15402 O sis,_ do n''t_ you wish Jim would come home?"
15402O, he did n''t, hey? 15402 O, that''s it, is it?
15402Of course: Aunt Mina''s son-- what''s his name?--is a sort of_ protà © gà ©_ of yours, I believe: what of him?
15402Oh, why did you ask me? 15402 One?
15402Papa,she said, without looking up,"you wanted me?"
15402Respectable?
15402Rich, is he? 15402 Right straight away?
15402Rough?
15402Say it all over again, sonny; what was it you told him?
15402See anything peculiar about it?
15402She is to sing, do you know?
15402She? 15402 Should you think so to look at her now?"
15402Sorry? 15402 Spoiled, am I?
15402Stop that infernal noise, will you?
15402Suppose I did,--what then?
15402Suppose you are an atom against the universe?
15402Thank you, Jim, for the compliment; but come, you are n''t going to say that nature has n''t placed a barrier between these people and us? 15402 The matther, is it?
15402The reason?
15402Thee has on the army blue; has thee been fighting any?
15402There''s nigger for you,broke out Jim,"what''n thunder''d they mean by such gibberish as that?"
15402This afternoon?
15402This afternoon?
15402This big fellow is abusing and devouring a poor little chap, eh? 15402 This captain,--what''s his name?"
15402This? 15402 Undoubtedly true, Mr. Greenleaf,"answered the neighbor,"but what caused the remark?"
15402Want?
15402Was it now? 15402 Was that you howling a while ago,''Roll Jordan,''or something?"
15402We are a handsome couple,laughed Jim, holding back her face between both hands,--"ain''t we, now?"
15402Well, Given, do you like the darkies well enough to take off your cap to them?
15402Well, massa, ye see I saw mighty quick I was in for a lie anyhow, so I said,''Is massa at home?'' 15402 Well, why by the devil have n''t you had something else then?
15402Well?
15402Well?
15402What are you asking, Willie?
15402What are you driving at now, hey?
15402What are you driving at?
15402What are you making such a devil of a row for, I''d like to know? 15402 What brought you here?
15402What did he say to that?
15402What do you call this fellow?
15402What does she mean by getting off such rampant discourses? 15402 What is this you were joking about with him, a while ago?"
15402What is wrong with you? 15402 What manner of fellow?"
15402What next?
15402What sort of a lie?
15402What''s good?
15402What''s his name?
15402What''s the matter with him? 15402 What''s the matter with the berth?"
15402What''s the matter?
15402What''s this?
15402What''s up?
15402What''s what, mother?
15402What''s wrong?
15402What, not call yourself an Injun,--when your great- grandmother was one? 15402 What?"
15402When? 15402 Where''d you come from?"
15402Where''s your pass, sirrah?
15402Whereabouts?
15402Which I am to afford?
15402Which has failed?
15402Which?--the words or the acts of my counsellor? 15402 Whither away?"
15402Whittier? 15402 Who is Sallie Howard?"
15402Who is she? 15402 Who, indeed?"
15402Why, Given, did n''t you say yourself that she was an octoroon, or some such thing?
15402Why, how should that be?
15402Why, what is it to you?
15402Why? 15402 Why?"
15402Will I never learn that? 15402 Will he practise?"
15402Will this do?
15402Would I?--O would n''t I? 15402 Would they work_ with_ him?"
15402Ye----, what are ye doin''here? 15402 Yes,--do you know him?"
15402You comprehend all that I mean?
15402You have counted all the consequences? 15402 You know me?"
15402You know the Franklins?
15402You think so?
15402_ Pourquoi_?
15402''Do you think he would continue to do so if he knew what you are?''
15402''I bear''--what is it?
15402''In War- Time''?
15402''What need of a letter?
15402--a pause--"won''t you get me some ice- cream this evening?"
15402--what does it mean?"
15402--what does the child mean?
15402--with a quick laugh,--"what could have made you think so?
15402A sudden heat flushed her cheeks:"Do you tell me your father made room for a black man in his employ, and at the expense of a white one?"
15402Abijah, hey?
15402Ai n''t I glad to see you?
15402Ai n''t you ashamed of yourself having such a thing round?
15402Am I cross?"
15402Am I stating it all correctly?"
15402And yet it ca n''t be that,--what were the first words I ever heard from her mouth?"
15402And yet-- once more-- only once?
15402And you do n''t know me at all,--don''t you?
15402And''ll you do it?"
15402Anna E. Dickinson 1868 WHAT ANSWER?
15402Any objection?"
15402Are you ready to listen?"
15402Are you ready?"
15402At last he said,"Father, will you never forego this cruel prejudice?"
15402At least, they hold forth a bribe to secure me?
15402Aye, might they not?
15402Bad enough, being dead, to yet speak, and tell''em that paper did n''t represent my politics:''d that do?"
15402Believing so, may I beg a favor of you?
15402Blasting his career, will your love fill the gap?
15402Both feeling and knowing this, who so fit to yield and to do for such a cause?
15402Brooks, back again?"
15402But may I ask where you saw mine?
15402But what about your paragon?"
15402But what are they?
15402But what connection has that with your expedition?"
15402CHAPTER XVIII"_ Will the future come?
15402Ca n''t I go with you, Miss Ercildoune?"
15402Can I serve you in any way further?"
15402Can you send it up to- morrow?"
15402Come, Sallie, own up; you would n''t like me so well as I hope you do if it was,--now, would you?"
15402Come, now, ai n''t it?"
15402Come, now, what do you call yourself,--an Injun?"
15402Come, what''s your story?
15402Did you know, Francesca?"
15402Do you judge by the past?
15402Dost hear?"
15402E.?"
15402Ercildoune,--from Philadelphia, you say?"
15402Go to her looking like such a guy?
15402Had a special despatch from him, that you know all about it?
15402Had enough?"
15402Hai''n''t they nothing but roots and berries up your way?
15402Has Mr. Surrey been saying anything hard to you?"
15402Has she been quarrelling with that young lover of hers, or refusing him?
15402Have you done so?"
15402Have you voted?"
15402Help a fellow?"
15402How about that?"
15402How am I ever to get on with my narrative, if you keep interrupting me in this style?
15402How and when will it be closed?
15402How and when would they see him again?
15402How are you to know?
15402How could it be otherwise?
15402How dared he?
15402How passed the long night with that half- insensible soul?
15402How''d you feel if you were picked up dead by a reb, with that stuff in your pocket?
15402How, indeed, should you be able?
15402How_ do_ you do?
15402Hunt''s Sam?"
15402I am greedy, I know, but then how can I help it?"
15402I fought against it strong; do you know why?"
15402I never thought of that before,--it''s the reason you and I have got on so swimmingly,--is it not, now?
15402I say, Johnny, are all the white men down your way such little shavers as you?"
15402I then cried, for astonishment had given place to rage,''how dared you deceive me-- deceive us all-- so?
15402I want a young lady to know that I''m wounded in the arm,--you see?
15402Instinct, hey?
15402Is it universal?"
15402Is n''t it?"
15402Is she the_ lady_ upon whom Surrey has been bestowing his--?"
15402It will be pleasant at Tanglewood over the Sabbath,--unless you have some engagements to keep you here?"
15402Jim grinned sardonically:"She is rather pretty, now,--ain''t she?"
15402Know him,--don''t I, though?
15402Looks like a''nigger wench,''do n''t she?"
15402Meanwhile what of Francesca?
15402Meanwhile, what was occurring to others, in other scenes and among other surroundings?
15402Meanwhile, where was Miss Ercildoune?
15402Might she not have changed?
15402Might they not?
15402Need I tell you how this pains me?
15402No,--you could n''t do that?
15402Now I shall query once more, who is she?"
15402Now these girls do n''t make a great noise, yet you can distinguish every word,--can''t you?"
15402Now what is it?
15402Now,"taking off his tin and looking towards them,"what d''ye s''pose those anemiles want?
15402O, Miss Perry played that last thing very well for a school- girl, eh?"
15402Perhaps-- Would you go away from here?"
15402Pretty?"
15402Put him out, ca n''t ye?"
15402Ruining his life, can your affection make amends?
15402Sallie did not know what to make of the expression of the face that watched her, nor of the exclamation,"Why not?
15402See her?
15402She caught Surrey''s hand between both of hers with a delighted cry:"Is it you, Mr. Willie?
15402She is the same now as then; should I love her the less?
15402She knew in this mood there was nothing to be said to him; and, indeed, what had she to say save that which would add fuel to the flame?
15402Some ob de darkies is, but we''s not dem kind,--Jim an''me,--we''s willin''to work, ai n''t we, Jim?"
15402Something''s wrong with you; who is she?"
15402Taking all this from him, what will you give him in return?
15402Taking up a piece at random, without pausing to remember the words, he said, spreading it before her,"May I tax you a little farther?
15402That''s sound, is n''t it?
15402The man whom you struck down this morning is one of our neighbors; you saw and heard his brutal assault: are you ready to face more of the like kind?
15402The men were no cowards, and the captain was brave enough; but what could they do?
15402Then, turning to Sam, who stood waiting, demanded,"Well, have you got it?"
15402There: do you see that elegant- looking lady talking with Professor Hale?
15402These creatures,--what are they?
15402This is our time to wipe off a thousand stigmas of contempt and reproach: this"--"Who is responsible for them?
15402Very well, then I''ll say good night, and leave; for it would n''t be proper to take a young lady you do n''t know to the theatre,--now, would it?
15402WHAT ANSWER?
15402Was it that the sun was going down, or that some clouds were in the sky, or had the air of the shop oppressed him?
15402Well, sir, it''s agen nature,--you may talk agen it, and work agen it, and fight agen it till all''s blue, and what good''ll it do?
15402Well,''Bijah, how came you two to be looking like a couple of animated skeletons?
15402What ails you?"
15402What are you laughing at?
15402What cast them there?
15402What could he say?
15402What could it mean?
15402What could there be in that little blue thing to cause such emotion?
15402What could this black man, or this matter, be to her?
15402What did he say?
15402What did she think of me?
15402What do_ you_ want to see Jim for?"
15402What else had he expected?
15402What folly possesses me?
15402What hand, however tender, could be laid on such a wound as this?
15402What have you got to say to that?"
15402What held him silent?
15402What in thunder did you bring the damned Copperhead sheet to me for, if you did n''t want it smashed?
15402What is it you want?"
15402What is there for you?"
15402What of the other?
15402What special phase of it has been disturbing your equanimity?"
15402What visions passed before them?
15402What was it?
15402What was it?
15402What was it?"
15402What was this something?
15402What''s his name, d''ye know?"
15402When I got him quiet, and came back, Mrs. Lee says,"What''s the matter with Frank?"
15402Where did that go?"
15402Where were the arguments he had planned, the entreaties he had purposed?
15402Who is he?
15402Who is she,--do you know?"
15402Who''s been putting on you to- day?
15402Who, indeed, of your friends would not be?"
15402Why did n''t you offer it yourself then?"
15402Why should he?"
15402Why--?"
15402Will you not help me to it?"
15402Will you please to speak to him, sir?
15402Would n''t I pummel him some?
15402You know nothing of_ him_?"
15402You think so?
15402You think this should cut off all hope?"
15402You understand what my errand was?"
15402_ can_ I love you, my beauty?
15402about turning abolitionist?"
15402ai n''t it a dreadful long walk, sonny?"
15402an instinct that repels an Anglo- Saxon from a negro always and everywhere?"
15402and how did it happen?"
15402and of course they could n''t have supposed any one was coming after it,--could they?
15402and the chap''s black?"
15402and then, so low that even Sallie could not hear,"You suffer, too: do we all suffer, then?"
15402are you certain?"
15402are you ill, Francesca?"
15402as he added after listening awhile;"do n''t you think so, Surrey?"
15402at least, if they make no apology for the past, they offer compensation for the future?
15402at least, they bid high for the services they desire?
15402by the signs of to- day?
15402could that do harm?
15402cried Whittlesly, from the other side of his Colonel;"what are you driving at?
15402cried the irate Virginian, his anger loosening his tongue,"want?
15402did he, or did he not?"
15402did he, this black man,--did he not do his work well?"
15402do n''t that nagur think himself foine?''
15402do you fancy England so very fascinating?"
15402do you know him?"
15402do you suppose she saw you at the window?
15402exclaimed John Bull,--"worse than the North?"
15402exclaimed the old Friend,--"do my eyes deceive me?"
15402he added presently,"eat like cannibals, do n''t they?
15402he called,"that''s Bertie Curtis, ai n''t it?"
15402he said when he seed me,''whar you cum from?
15402he thought,"what sick fancies and sentimental nonsense possess me?
15402he thought;"what does she mean by that?
15402how and when will it be closed?"
15402how control the beatings of his heart, the passion of his soul, that no sign should escape to wound or offend her?
15402how do you know he''s rich?"
15402how find words to speak the measured feelings of a friend?
15402how shall I bear it?
15402how shall I ever be able to thank you?"
15402how?
15402if you meet any''Lincoln vandals,''just give them my respects, will you?"
15402interrupted Jim,--"what d''ye do then?"
15402is it so?"
15402is she the least little bit mad?
15402it is Mr. Will, then, is it?
15402long ago?
15402looking at the little one,--"by the way, what''s your name?"
15402may I entreat that you will induce her to see me, if only for a little while?"
15402might she not have struggled for the mastery of this feeling with only too certain success?
15402of course it was the room,--didn''t she say she was ill?
15402of my position and prospects?"
15402our own actions?
15402ourselves?
15402philanthropic?"
15402protest, for instance?"
15402quoting my own words against me?"
15402responded the doctor, coming over to him,"what''s the go now?
15402said Surrey softly,"does it not seem easy now to die?"
15402school yonder,--well situated?"
15402she queried, looking down on it,--''this?''
15402so I told her I did n''t know,--but would she see him?
15402soliloquized Given,--"my name, hey?
15402spoke up a well- dressed man, with the air and manner of a gentleman,"what does that card say?"
15402streak like lightning, will you, to the''Merchants''?
15402this her?"
15402to a fine, frank- looking young fellow,--"and were you successful?"
15402what ails you?"
15402what are you gassing about?"
15402what cause, then, for mournful scrutiny?
15402what could he say?
15402what could there have been in that talk to have such an effect as I have conjured up?
15402what d''ye mean, coming here starved to death, making a fellow sick to look at you?
15402what did you come for?"
15402what do?
15402what does that signify?
15402what had I done that he should believe me such a thing as that?
15402what has he done?"
15402what now, young''un?"
15402what shadows of the life she inspected darkened them?
15402what shall I do?
15402what warrant or guarantee have you for any such future?
15402what''ll such fellows as you do with freedom, hey?"
15402what''s all this?"
15402what''s this nasty nagur doin''here?
15402what''s to pay now?"
15402what''ve you been doing with yourselves for''long while''?
15402where did he grow?"
15402where did she come from?
15402where the words with which he was to tell his tale, combat her refusal, win her to a willing and happy assent?
15402where?
15402whispering it, and snuggling her blushing face closer to the faded blue,"can you love me after all that has happened?"
15402who knows?
15402why did I let you come?"
15402why do n''t you bind him over to keep the peace?"
15402why should n''t I?"
15402why, Francesca, is it so hateful to you?
15402worse?"
15402you''re in time to hear the confession, are you?"
15402your great- grandmother, eh?
