1118	Will it serve for any model to build mischief on?
1118	Will you come presently?
1118	Will you go hear this news, signior?
1118	Will you have me, lady?
1118	Will you not eat your word?
1118	Will you not tell me who told you so?
1118	Will you then write me a sonnet in praise of my beauty?
1118	Will your Grace command me any service to the world''s end?
1118	Wilt thou make a trust a transgression?
1118	Wilt thou use thy wit?
1118	With me in your company?
1118	With who?
1118	Would it not grieve a woman to be overmaster''d with a piece of valiant dust?
1118	Would the two princes lie?
1118	Would you buy her, that you enquire after her?
1118	Yea, and text underneath,''Here dwells Benedick, the married man''?
1118	Yea, or to paint himself?
1118	Yea, wherefore should she not?
1118	You are both sure, and will assist me?
1118	You come hither, my lord, to marry this lady?
1118	You have no employment for me?
1118	You take pleasure then in the message?
1118	Yours, sirrah?
1118	[ aside] Is''t possible?
1118	[ to Claudio] Means your lordship to be married tomorrow?
1118	about your neck, like an usurer''s chain?
1118	and Claudio lie, Who lov''d her so that, speaking of her foulness, Wash''d it with tears?
1118	and who?
1118	are you yet living?
1118	art not ashamed?
1118	dress him in my apparel and make him my waiting gentlewoman?
1118	how giddily''a turns about all the hot- bloods between fourteen and five- and- thirty?
1118	interjections?
1118	of speaking honourably?
1118	or do you play the flouting Jack, to tell us Cupid is a good hare- finder and Vulcan a rare carpenter?
1118	or under your arm, like a lieutenant''s scarf?
1118	or would you have me speak after my custom, as being a professed tyrant to their sex?
1118	sick?
1118	sigh for the toothache?
1118	that your niece Beatrice was in love with Signior Benedick?
1118	the most exquisite Claudio?
1118	to make an account of her life to a clod of wayward marl?
1118	two of my brother''s men bound?
1118	which way looks he?
1118	why benedictus?
15265	A love affair--she paled with something like fear--"and I"--she started to speak, but could not--"I want to know what you think about Zora?"
15265	About darky schools?
15265	About how much?
15265	Ai n''t you got no money?
15265	All the truth?
15265	Always-- tell-- the truth?
15265	Am I? 15265 And Sanders?"
15265	And Zora?
15265	And cotton?
15265	And criticise the party?
15265	And culture and work?
15265	And do the people believe that?
15265	And how long have you been buying it?
15265	And if that strong influence were found?
15265	And is--she struggled at the word madly--"is she pure?"
15265	And kill the plantation system?
15265	And leave a pa''cel of niggers behind to shoot your lights out? 15265 And let your neighbor sell them poison at all hours?
15265	And more beautiful?
15265	And no appointment? 15265 And now,"he said,"Miss Wynn, what can I do for you?"
15265	And part of the price is putting the colored schools of the District in the hands of a Southern man and depriving us of all voice in their control?
15265	And say,as Easterly was turning away,"you know Congressman Smith?"
15265	And so you ca n''t leave?
15265	And the Board of Education abolished?
15265	And the other planters?
15265	And then?
15265	And these Cresswells today?
15265	And throw the rest of our capital after the fifty thousand dollars we''ve already lost?
15265	And what brings you to town afoot this time of day?
15265	And what shall you do?
15265	And what were you to pay for it?
15265	And what''s beyond the swamp?
15265	And where do you live, Buddy?
15265	And who is Elspeth?
15265	And why do you hate it?
15265	And why does she hold a lily?
15265	And will they all be represented?
15265	And with the teachers of it?
15265	And yet you will stay?
15265	And yonder to the west?
15265	And you are still friendly with him?
15265	And you?
15265	And, Zora, what way do you seek? 15265 Any witnesses?"
15265	Any witnesses?
15265	Are kisses illegal here?
15265	Are they honest and kind?
15265	Are they not hard working honest people?
15265	Are you going back there when you finish?
15265	Are you happy?
15265	Are you men fools, or rascals? 15265 Are you sure of the path, Zora?"
15265	Are you sure?
15265	Are you the-- er-- the man who had a letter to the Senator?
15265	Are you walking?
15265	Are you-- in a hurry, Miss Smith?
15265	As Treasurer?
15265	Aunt Rachel?
15265	Back, is she? 15265 Behind where the sun comes up?"
15265	Bigger?
15265	Black or white?
15265	Bles,she began didactically,"where are you from?"
15265	Bles,she cried,"how can I grow pure?"
15265	Bles,she said impulsively,"shall I tell you of the Golden Fleece?"
15265	Bles,she said primly,"have you absolutely no shame?"
15265	Brethren,he began,"the plan''s good enough for talkin''but you ca n''t work it; who ever heer''d tell of such a thing?
15265	But could n''t you hire some good workers?
15265	But did n''t you say they were engaged?
15265	But did n''t you settle at Christmas?
15265	But how about your raw material? 15265 But how can I know?"
15265	But how do they hope to make Mr. Alwyn blunder?
15265	But how shall we help him?
15265	But how''s cotton?
15265	But if she escapes, why not you?
15265	But if we can not trust to the justice of the case, and if you knew we could n''t, why did you try?
15265	But in the tenth case-- suppose he should stick to it?
15265	But is it necessary? 15265 But others-- a man''s a man, is n''t he?"
15265	But surely you did n''t join her in advocating that ten million people be menials?
15265	But that''s been decided, has n''t it?
15265	But the other gown?
15265	But the seed?
15265	But the unselfish work she does-- the utter sacrifice?
15265	But what do Teerswell and Stillings want?
15265	But what_ can_ turn up?
15265	But where are the houses?
15265	But where have you sent them?
15265	But where is it?
15265	But where is it?
15265	But who gave it to you?
15265	But why do n''t the planters do something?
15265	But why is lies evil?
15265	But why prolong the thing?
15265	But you believe in some education?
15265	But you mean to say you ca n''t even advise her?
15265	But, Mrs. Vanderpool,she protested,"is it right?
15265	But, Zora, must you folk ape our nonsense as well as our sense?
15265	But,--presently,--"how can we sell it without the Cresswells knowing?"
15265	But-- I do n''t understand, Miss Smith-- why ca n''t you accept my offer?
15265	But-- but I thought they had already started to work a crop on the Tolliver place?
15265	But-- but how are-- all?
15265	But-- but, dear Mrs. Vanderpool, you would n''t want your children trained that way, would you?
15265	But-- will he?
15265	By the bye, I met some charming Alabama people last winter, in Montgomery-- the Cresswells; do you know them?
15265	Ca n''t I have the girl Zora?
15265	Called?
15265	Can I go?
15265	Can I speak with you a moment, Colonel?
15265	Can it be, Bles Alwyn,she said,"that you do n''t know the sort of girl she is?"
15265	Can you not stop and see some of the classes?
15265	Can you put trust in that sort of help?
15265	Can you?
15265	Cash?
15265	Colton,he asked,"are you sending any of your white children to the nigger school yet?"
15265	Come, is you? 15265 Cotton is a wonderful thing, is it not, boys?"
15265	Could I buy a lunch from the dining- car?
15265	Could I help?
15265	Could I trust you with a human soul?
15265	Could she pass?
15265	Did Helene attend the ball four years ago?
15265	Did he say he meant to sign such a contract?
15265	Did n''t I tell you there was lots to learn?
15265	Did n''t you know that this Child Labor business was opposed to my interests?
15265	Did you get that novel for me, Harry?
15265	Did you know that he is to be invited to make the principal address to the graduates of the colored high- school?
15265	Did you make that pin?
15265	Did you see Colonel Cresswell sign this paper?
15265	Did you suggest anything?
15265	Do crazy folks forget?
15265	Do fools like the American people deserve salvation?
15265	Do n''t white folks make books?
15265	Do n''t you hate the deception?
15265	Do n''t you know that Colonel Cresswell will attach our cotton for rent as soon as it touches the warehouse?
15265	Do n''t you know that is a wicked, bad habit?
15265	Do n''t you know we''re not going to interfere with Colonel Cresswell''s tenants?
15265	Do n''t you see,he said angrily,"that that will ruin our plans for the Cotton Combine?"
15265	Do n''t_ you_ want to be different?
15265	Do they get that-- ten cents an hour?
15265	Do you ever tell lies, Zora?
15265	Do you go to school?
15265	Do you happen to have any whiskey handy?
15265	Do you hear the bodies creaking on the limbs? 15265 Do you know how?"
15265	Do you know me?
15265	Do you know my people? 15265 Do you know no one in town?"
15265	Do you live about here?
15265	Do you live in Washington?
15265	Do you mean it?
15265	Do you mean to intimate that Mr. Alwyn''s appointment is held up because he is colored?
15265	Do you mean to say he''s actually slated for the place?
15265	Do you mean to say that you are going to keep in this school a girl who not only lies and steals but is positively--_immoral_?
15265	Do you s''pose mammy''s the witch?
15265	Do you stay there now?
15265	Do you work for pay?
15265	Does he furnish you rations?
15265	Does he?
15265	Does she think them immodest?
15265	Does you own the land?
15265	Does you want-- a collection?
15265	Does, eh? 15265 Dreams?"
15265	Enough to marry me?
15265	Even if it hurts me?
15265	Except who?
15265	First, there''s England-- and all Europe; why not bring them into the trust?
15265	For what? 15265 General philanthropy?"
15265	Gentleman is asking if you forgits it''s Saturday night, sir?
15265	God is the father of all the little babies, ai n''t He, Bles?
15265	Goobers?
15265	Good white folk?
15265	Got my letter?
15265	H''m, they''re way behind, are n''t they? 15265 Harry, will you do me a favor?"
15265	Hate what?
15265	Have I shocked you?
15265	Have n''t I a right to have a gun?
15265	Have you been in your sitting- room?
15265	Have you got the deed?
15265	Have you had the civil- service examinations?
15265	Have you heard of the Vanderpools?
15265	Have you hired a maid?
15265	Have you many settlements?
15265	Have you never heard of the Golden Fleece, Bles?
15265	Have you seen Senator Smith yet?
15265	Have you seen the Easterlys?
15265	He deserved it, did n''t he?
15265	He''s a fair God, ai n''t He?
15265	Heavenly Father, was man ever before set to such a task?
15265	Helen?
15265	Helps folks that they love? 15265 Here you, Jim, take the big mules and drive like-- Where''s that wench?"
15265	Hired?
15265	How about fighting for exercise?
15265	How am I to know this is true?
15265	How dare you?
15265	How do you do, Miss Smith?
15265	How do you mean?
15265	How do you spell that?
15265	How does_ you_ know He does?
15265	How is my sister?
15265	How long before the stalks will be ready to cut?
15265	How much is that?
15265	How much of it?
15265	How much-- farther will it drop?
15265	How much?
15265	How so?
15265	How you know?
15265	How''s his cotton?
15265	How''s the school getting on?
15265	How?
15265	How?
15265	How?
15265	I beg pardon, does the Miss Wynn live here who got the prize in the art exhibition?
15265	I beg your pardon?
15265	I do hope the thing can be managed, but--"What are the difficulties?
15265	I do n''t suppose you know any one who is acquainted with any number of these Northern darkies?
15265	I hate it, Bles, do n''t you?
15265	I mean, what work?
15265	I mean, would the Cresswells approve of educating Negroes?
15265	I see-- everybody is raising his price, is he? 15265 I suppose my salary would stop?"
15265	I suppose you hear from the school?
15265	I think they are; but-- well, you know Carrie Wynn better than I do: suppose, now-- suppose he should lose the appointment?
15265	I thought it was the lazy, shiftless, and criminal Negroes, you feared?
15265	I wonder what I shall make out of her?
15265	I''m driving round through the old plantation,he explained;"wo n''t you join me?"
15265	I''ve gambled-- before; I''ve gambled on cards and on horses; I''ve gambled-- for money-- and-- women-- but--"But not on cotton, hey? 15265 I-- er-- came; that is, I believe you sent a group to the art exhibit?"
15265	I-- er-- meant to ask if Colonel Cresswell, in signing this paper, meant to sign a contract to sell this wench two hundred acres of land?
15265	If not I, who?
15265	In your dark lives,he cried,"_ who_ is the King of Glory?
15265	Inclined to be a little nasty?
15265	Indeed? 15265 Indeed?
15265	Indeed?
15265	Indeed?
15265	Is it off?
15265	Is it ready, Zora?
15265	Is it wrong,asked Zora,"to make believe you likes people when you do n''t, when you''se afeared of them and thinks they may rub off and dirty you?"
15265	Is it? 15265 Is it?--is it?"
15265	Is it?--is it?
15265	Is n''t Bles developing splendidly?
15265	Is n''t it so-- anywhere?
15265	Is n''t the census building wretched?
15265	Is she very sick?
15265	Is that all?
15265	Is that so?
15265	Is that wrong?
15265	Is that you, Smith?
15265	Is the Congressional business very heavy?
15265	Is there any water near?
15265	Is there anything in Washington that the South does not already own?
15265	Is this a new gag?
15265	Is this about this?
15265	Is you afeared, honey?
15265	Is-- is anything the matter?
15265	It is so late and wet and you''re tired tonight-- don''t you think you''d better sleep in your little room?
15265	Jim Sykes?
15265	Just begun?
15265	Just what is your plan?
15265	Know dem? 15265 Like it?
15265	Look like a fool, do I?
15265	Mary, has that Alwyn nigger been here this afternoon?
15265	Me? 15265 Mean?
15265	Miss Smith''s school?
15265	Miss Smith, how much money have you?
15265	Miss Smith, is yo''got a speller fo''ten cents?
15265	Miss Smith, is yo''got just a drap of coffee to lend me? 15265 Miss Smith, who do you think has been here?"
15265	Miss Smith, would Jim do to drive?
15265	Miss-- Wynn?
15265	Mr. Cresswell would be their local representative?
15265	Mr. Taylor, have you any money in this?
15265	Mr. Taylor,said the lawyer carelessly,"were you present at this transaction?"
15265	Mrs. Grey talked to you much?
15265	Must you do as he wants?
15265	My God-- it walks-- like my wife-- I tell you-- she held her head so-- who is it?
15265	My people?--my people?
15265	Never?
15265	Never?
15265	No,he pressed her,"with your bargain?"
15265	No-- well, what can I do for you?
15265	No-- what?
15265	Now what the devil does this mean?
15265	Now, Bles,she began,"since we understand each other, can we not work together as good friends?"
15265	Now, about the niggers,the chairman had asked;"how much more boodle do they want?"
15265	Now, what do you know,she asked finally,"about Negroes-- about educating them?"
15265	Now, what have you got there?
15265	Now, what''s his game?
15265	Of Colonel Cresswell?
15265	Oh, you''ve noted it, too?--his friendship for that impossible girl, Zora?
15265	Ought I to tell? 15265 Our success?"
15265	Promise you wo n''t tell?
15265	Really, now, you do not mean to say that there is a danger of-- of amalgamation, do you?
15265	Robert, where is the land Cresswell offers you?
15265	Said that, did he?
15265	Sam, is it? 15265 Say, Harry, how about that darky, Sykes?"
15265	Say,he whispered another time,"do n''t you want to buy these gold spectacles?
15265	See those boys over there? 15265 Sell it?
15265	She gets a salary, does n''t she?
15265	She lives in the swamp-- she''s a kind of witch, I reckon, like-- like--"Like Medea?
15265	So''m I,answered the boy, fumbling at his bundle; and then, timidly:"Will you eat with me?"
15265	So? 15265 So?
15265	Some time you''ll tell me, please, wo n''t you?
15265	Something political?
15265	Still thinking of going, are you, Sam?
15265	Stillings?
15265	Stuff?
15265	Surely there must be many friends of our race willing to stand for the right and sacrifice for it?
15265	Taylor, what does this mean?
15265	The Cresswells?
15265	The Silver Fleece?
15265	The Tolliver place?
15265	The brotherhood of man?
15265	The snake-- what is he?
15265	The world?
15265	Then what''s the use of seeing the world?
15265	Then why do they go?
15265	Then you can leave the place, Zora?
15265	Then you care-- for me?
15265	Then you lies sometimes, do n''t you?
15265	There are so many ahead of me and I am in a hurry to get to my school; but I must see the Senator-- couldn''t I go in with you? 15265 There''s something in it,"he admitted,"but what can we do?
15265	They are-- wealthy people?
15265	They may accommodate you-- how much would you want?
15265	They want us to revive the Farmers''League?
15265	This is a great cotton country?
15265	Tickets?
15265	Tightening up on the tenants?
15265	To be sure,she murmured,"but what sort of folks?"
15265	Todd asks: Who is Vanderpool, anyhow? 15265 Todd just let fall something of a combination against us in Congress-- know anything of it?"
15265	Tolerable, how are you?
15265	True; but ca n''t we force them to it?
15265	Two hundred acres? 15265 Want to go?"
15265	Was n''t what I said true?
15265	Was she pretty?
15265	Was the child born dead?
15265	We wo n''t work any more today, then?
15265	We''se both crazy, ai n''t we?
15265	We''ve cornered the market all right-- cornered it-- d''ye hear, Cresswell? 15265 We?"
15265	Well, I wants to see Mr. Harry very much; could I wait in the back hall?
15265	Well, Uncle Jim, why are n''t you at work?
15265	Well, Zora, what have you there?
15265	Well, all right, if--"Harry, I feel a little-- hysterical, tonight, and-- you will not refuse me, will you, Harry?
15265	Well, are you all moved, Aunt Rachel?
15265	Well, are you getting things in shape so as to enter school early next year?
15265	Well, did he intend so far as you know to sign such a paper?
15265	Well, nigger, what are you going to do about it?
15265	Well, sir?
15265	Well, what do you want?
15265	Well, what do you want?
15265	Well, what is it?
15265	Well, what then?
15265	Well, who''d have dreamed it?
15265	Well, why do n''t you go to the office?
15265	Well,asked Cresswell, maintaining his composure by an effort,"how are things?"
15265	Well,shortly,"now for that talk-- ready?"
15265	Well?
15265	Were they kind to their slaves?
15265	What Smith?
15265	What about Johnson?
15265	What are prospects in March? 15265 What are you going to do with it?"
15265	What bargain?
15265	What can I do for you?
15265	What can I do to help you?
15265	What can I do?
15265	What can be done with Negroes?
15265	What damned mummery is this?
15265	What did you disagree about?
15265	What do the colored people want, and who can best influence them in this campaign?
15265	What do you do?
15265	What do you mean?
15265	What does Miss Wynn do for a living?
15265	What does it amount to a year?
15265	What does she intend to do?
15265	What else?
15265	What for?
15265	What for?
15265	What for?
15265	What is Todd''s bill?
15265	What is it?
15265	What is it?
15265	What is planted over there?
15265	What is the matter, Bles?
15265	What is the matter, Zora?
15265	What is the matter, Zora?
15265	What is the world like?
15265	What is your plan?
15265	What kinds?
15265	What of it? 15265 What of it?"
15265	What of them?
15265	What pin?
15265	What shall we offer him?
15265	What sort of people are the Cresswells?
15265	What the hell are you going to do?
15265	What was the trouble?
15265	What will you say in your speech?
15265	What would the interest be?
15265	What would you expect as pay?
15265	What would you have? 15265 What you run for?"
15265	What!--and no appointment?
15265	What''s a shame?
15265	What''s over there?
15265	What''s that got to do with it?
15265	What''s that?
15265	What''s that?
15265	What''s that?
15265	What''s that?
15265	What''s that?
15265	What''s that?
15265	What''s the charge here?
15265	What''s the matter, Rob?
15265	What''s the matter?
15265	What''s the use, Miss Smith-- what opening is there for a-- a nigger with an education?
15265	What''s this nigger charged with?
15265	What''s this stuff about the Civic Club?
15265	What''s this?
15265	What''s your name?
15265	What-- what did you do?
15265	What?
15265	What?
15265	What?
15265	What?
15265	When we cry they mock us; they ruin our women and debauch our children-- what shall we do? 15265 When?"
15265	Where can we buy them?
15265	Where did this come from?
15265	Where did you get it?
15265	Where did you get these facts?
15265	Where does it go?
15265	Where does this road come out?
15265	Where have you been?
15265	Where is it?
15265	Where is she now?
15265	Where is she?
15265	Where is the deed?
15265	Where now, Zora?
15265	Where shall I put these?
15265	Where to, Madame?
15265	Where you going?
15265	Where''s Zora?
15265	Where''s that?
15265	Where''s your lawyer?
15265	Where''s-- Nell''s?
15265	Where?
15265	Where?
15265	Where?
15265	Which would the South prefer-- Todd''s Education Bill, or Alwyn''s appointment?
15265	Who is dis what talks of doing the Lord''s work for Him? 15265 Who is he?"
15265	Who is he?
15265	Who is it, and what do you want?
15265	Who is it?
15265	Who''ll be the committee?
15265	Who''s John Taylor?
15265	Who''s a- feared of the dark? 15265 Who''s going to get what''s made on this land?"
15265	Who''s going to tend this land?
15265	Who''s going to work on the place?
15265	Who''s running it?
15265	Who''s speaking?
15265	Who''s that?
15265	Who''s that?
15265	Who''s that?
15265	Who''s that?
15265	Who''s this?
15265	Who?
15265	Whom?
15265	Whose child is this?
15265	Whose is that?
15265	Whose work is this, Senator?
15265	Why did n''t you tell me?
15265	Why did you send your exhibit when you knew it was not wanted?
15265	Why did you speak so to Miss Taylor?
15265	Why do you say these things?
15265	Why is it yours?
15265	Why not bigger?
15265	Why not make a speech on the subject?
15265	Why not, then, admit that you draw the color- line?
15265	Why not?
15265	Why not?
15265	Why should it be?
15265	Why should n''t people do anything they wants to?
15265	Why should we trust him?
15265	Why, Aunt Rachel, how are you?
15265	Why, Bles, what''s the matter?
15265	Why, Zora?
15265	Why, certainly,Mrs. Vanderpool agreed, and then curiously:"What?"
15265	Why, dangerous?
15265	Why, how do you do, Robert?
15265	Why, it''s civil- service, is n''t it?
15265	Why, one must live; and why not be happy?
15265	Why, what''s there?
15265	Why, yes--faltered Miss Taylor;"but-- wouldn''t that be difficult?"
15265	Why,he said at length,"are n''t you promoting it?"
15265	Why,in abrupt recognition,"it is our Venus of the Roadside, is it not?"
15265	Why? 15265 Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Will it take long?
15265	Will you come to hear me?
15265	With his bargain?
15265	With that hair?
15265	Wo n''t you come in?
15265	Wo n''t you try?
15265	Work? 15265 Would Bles care if I told?"
15265	Would it not be worth a fight?
15265	Yes, but ought you to tell them?
15265	Yes, this is it-- good- bye-- I must--"Wait-- what is your name?
15265	Yes-- but back of it all, what is it really? 15265 Yes?"
15265	You are a stranger?
15265	You are interested in bronzes?
15265	You are worse, father?
15265	You can depend on Taylor, of course?
15265	You do n''t mean that any one can advise a black man to vote the Democratic ticket?
15265	You had quite forgotten what you were waiting for-- isn''t that so, Sis?
15265	You know the Cresswells, then?
15265	You know the people pretty well, then?
15265	You mean it will stand in law?
15265	You mean the Smiths of Boston?
15265	You mean you can pay what we ask?
15265	You mean youse gwine to git yo''livin''off it?
15265	You remember our visit to Senator Smith?
15265	You wished to see-- Caroline Wynn?
15265	You would not like me to act dishonestly, would you?
15265	You''d let a nigger vote?
15265	You''ve found some things worth knowing in this world, have n''t you, Zora?
15265	Zora,he said,"sometimes you tell lies, do n''t you?"
15265	Zora,she faltered,"will you leave me?"
15265	Zora,she presently broke into the girl''s absorption,"how would you like to be Ambassador to France?"
15265	Zora,she said evenly,"why did n''t you come to class when I called?"
15265	Zora--he gasped,"how-- how did you do it?"
15265	Zora? 15265 Zora?"
15265	_ The_ problem, you mean?
15265	A horror crept over Mary Cresswell: where had she lived that she had seen so little before?
15265	After all why should he care?
15265	After all, he kept saying to himself, what guarantee, what knowledge had he that this was not a"damned Yankee trick"?
15265	After all, which was worse-- a Cresswell or an Alwyn?
15265	After all, why should n''t it be?
15265	Ai n''t that all?"
15265	Always before she had been veiled from these folk: who had put the veil there?
15265	Alwyn?"
15265	Alwyn?"
15265	And Bles-- was Miss Taylor deceived?--or was he chuckling?
15265	And Carrie Wynn-- poor Carrie, with her pride and position dragged down in his ruin: how would she take it?
15265	And how much have you paid a year?"
15265	And if it were?
15265	And suppose I had?"
15265	And then, brightening, he asked gayly:"And we''ll be friends always, wo n''t we?"
15265	And who could furnish that illumination better than Zora, the calm, methodical Zora, who knew them so well?
15265	And why are you afraid for her?"
15265	And why not?"
15265	And yet, once in the hands of these past- masters of debt- manipulation, would her school be safe?
15265	And yet, why should she hesitate?
15265	And you graduated, I suppose, and all that?"
15265	And, Sam, ca n''t you find us a sandwich and something cool?
15265	Anything on?"
15265	Are you blind?
15265	Are you dumb?
15265	Are you willing to try?"
15265	Are you?"
15265	As the black porter passed her she said gently:"Is smoking allowed in here?"
15265	As the two white riders approached the buggy one said to the other:"Who''s that nigger with?"
15265	At any rate, who was better?
15265	At last, however, she said happily to Zora:"Well, the battle''s over, is n''t it?"
15265	Aye, face it boldly-- what?
15265	Bles, where was he?
15265	But Bles asked coldly:"Why did n''t you have him arrested?"
15265	But before?"
15265	But could she do it?
15265	But could she live?
15265	But did he desire her as a wife?
15265	But do you know I like the girl?
15265	But do you know that we''re encountering opposition from the most unexpected source?"
15265	But how about the Smith School?
15265	But how had it been saved?
15265	But if she talked again of mere men would these devotees listen?
15265	But if she went there what would she see and do, and would it be possible to become such a woman as Miss Smith pictured?
15265	But if she were especially invited?
15265	But it does n''t, does it?"
15265	But these are not my children, they are the children of Negroes; we ca n''t quite forget that, can we?"
15265	But to Miss Taylor:"I beg pardon-- er-- Miss Smith?"
15265	But what did I say so funny?"
15265	But what does it matter?
15265	But what of that?
15265	But who?
15265	But why lonely?
15265	But would she make a satisfactory maid?
15265	But, pshaw!--he poured himself a glass of brandy-- was he not rich and young?
15265	By the way, what did that letter say about a''sister''?"
15265	Ca n''t we keep wages where we like by threatening to bring in nigger labor?"
15265	Can you be ready by eleven?"
15265	Child?
15265	Could it be possible that all unconsciously she had dared dream a forbidden dream?
15265	Could it be that this Negro had dared to misunderstand her-- had presumed?
15265	Could she be brought back to a useful life?
15265	Cresswell?"
15265	Cresswell?"
15265	Cresswell?"
15265	Did God ask that, too?
15265	Did John think she had nothing else to do?
15265	Did colored people attend the ball?
15265	Did he know of the mortgage, too?
15265	Did he understand?
15265	Did n''t you see her while she was here?
15265	Did she intend to exhibit?
15265	Did she want him to find her?
15265	Did you notice how unhealthy the children looked?
15265	Do n''t they ever get there?"
15265	Do n''t we own the mill?
15265	Do n''t you remember those fine bales of cotton that came out of there several seasons ago?"
15265	Do n''t you see the two schemes ca n''t mix?
15265	Do n''t you see you''re planning to cut off your noses?
15265	Do n''t you want to come up and help me look?"
15265	Do you dance and laugh, and hear and see not?
15265	Do you expect to buy that land for five dollars an acre?"
15265	Do you know the man that stands ready to gobble up every inch of cotton land in this country at a price which no trust can hope to rival?"
15265	Do you know-- I''ve wondered if-- quite unconciously, it is you?
15265	Do you think the plantation system can be maintained without laborers?
15265	Does n''t Cresswell know this?"
15265	Does one"appeal"to the red- eyed beast that throttles him?
15265	Dr. Boldish, naturally the appointed spokesman, looked helplessly about and whispered to Mrs. Vanderpool:"What on earth shall I talk about?"
15265	Ever met him?"
15265	Faith without works is dead; who is you that dares to set and wait for the Lord to do your work?"
15265	Fight?
15265	Find out for us just what this revolt is, how far it goes, and what good men we can get to swing the darkies into line-- see?"
15265	From the other side the words came distinctly and clearly:"--other children, doctor?"
15265	From these Southerners?"
15265	Glad?
15265	Had Mrs. Stillings heard of the new art movement?
15265	Had Zora thought of them?
15265	Had he dreamed?
15265	Had he seen a haunt?
15265	Had it been real?
15265	Had she herself hung it before her soul, or had they hidden timidly behind its other side?
15265	Had she met this stately ceremony with enough breeding to show that she too was somebody?
15265	Had you heard?"
15265	Harry Cresswell laid his hand on his father''s arm and said quietly:"And where do we come in?"
15265	Harry Cresswell was not a bad man-- are there any bad men?
15265	Has John written you?"
15265	Have I got a little of the year''s wage coming to me?"
15265	Have I made my clothes and food?
15265	Have I paid my old debts to you?
15265	Have you a young man named Alwyn on your eligible list?
15265	Have you seen this?"
15265	He bent to her fiercely:"Who?"
15265	He frowned as he noted the footprints pointing to Elspeth''s-- what did Mary Taylor want there?
15265	He had not thought that white people had such troubles; yet, he reflected, why not?
15265	He leaned against his hoe and talked half dreamily-- where had he learned so well that dream- talk?
15265	He watched her silently, till, waking from her daydream, she abruptly asked:"Where you from?"
15265	Helen regarded her brother through her veiling lashes: what meant this sudden assumption of warmth and amiability?
15265	Her heart answered back:"What is impossible to youth and resolution?"
15265	Her little hands groped and wandered over his close- curled hair, and she sobbed, deep voiced:"Will you-- marry me, Bles?"
15265	His voice came slow and firm:"Emma?
15265	Hit''s hot, ai n''t it?
15265	How could she find out?
15265	How dares the black puppy to ignore a Cresswell on the highway?
15265	How goes the great battle for black men''s rights?
15265	How is she, and where?"
15265	How is you?"
15265	How large is your place?"
15265	How much had Mrs. Cresswell ever known of Zora?
15265	How much?
15265	I do n''t like work-- do you?"
15265	I found''em and I dassen''t sell''em open, see?
15265	I hope John''s well?"
15265	I said:"''Judge, a friend is expecting me at two,''it was then half- past one,''would I not best telephone?''"
15265	I wanted to go in the trap-- take me?"
15265	I was so afraid he would miss it and think that Right did n''t win in Life, that I wrote him--""You wrote him?
15265	I wonder if I''m selling my birthright for six thousand dollars?"
15265	I''d marry Carrie-- but how can I help you?"
15265	I''ll put stuff into him that''ll make him wave the bloody shirt at the next meeting of the Bethel Literary-- see?
15265	If his intense belief happened to be popular, all right; but if not?
15265	If it failed, would not they fail?
15265	If she was not careful--"But what is it you want?"
15265	If the former, how far could they trust him; if the latter, what was his game?
15265	If this went on, the day would surely come when Negroes felt no respect or fear whatever for whites?
15265	If, now, you could drop a word here and there--""But why should I?"
15265	In that time what had happened?
15265	In the parlor and have the servants astounded and talking?
15265	In town?"
15265	In vain her shrewd New England reason asked:"What can a half- taught black girl do in this wilderness?"
15265	Is it fair-- to the children?"
15265	Is it fair?
15265	Is it yo''s?"
15265	Is it you, little wife, come back to accuse me?
15265	Is n''t that your idea, Miss Smith?"
15265	Is that an excuse for saying it?"
15265	Is that woman''s brother going to spend this money?
15265	Is that you, Mr. Cole?
15265	It might rain only an hour or so, but, suppose it should rain a day-- two days-- a week?
15265	It occurred to her that she had heard that name before-- but where?
15265	It seemed to her that every breeze and branch was instinct with sympathy, and murmuring,"What''s the use?"
15265	It was all right, and yet why so suddenly had the threads of life let go?
15265	Mary?"
15265	Mr. Cresswell says they own almost no land here; think of it?
15265	Mrs. Vanderpool was right: culture and-- some masses, at least-- were not to be linked; and, too, culture and work-- were they incompatible?
15265	Must I study five years?"
15265	Must she live?
15265	My father writes me that they are showing signs of expecting money right off-- is that true?
15265	New York?"
15265	No spontaneity either-- rather languid, did you notice?
15265	Nothing?
15265	Now here,_ every_thing seems to be happening; but what is it that is happening?"
15265	Now, I wonder where they got the music?
15265	Now, have n''t you a girl about here who would do?"
15265	Now, if I get the job, how would you like to be my assistant?"
15265	On the porch and have Mr. Maxwell ride up?
15265	Or had it been some witch- vision of the night, come to tempt and lure him to his undoing?
15265	Or was it simply a brute fact, regardless of both of them?
15265	Or was the elf- girl real?
15265	Or, was he happy?
15265	Our?--was_ our_ right?
15265	Perhaps a mortgage on the strength of the endowment?
15265	See?
15265	Senator Smith regarded him again: was Cresswell playing a shrewd game?
15265	Shall I make him an enemy?
15265	Shall I resign and beg, or go tilting at windmills?
15265	Shall I try in addition to reform?
15265	She answered dully, groping for words, for she was tired:"Who is it?"
15265	She continued after a pause:"May I venture to ask a favor of you?"
15265	She did not expect this, but she asked the porter:"Do you know where I can get a lunch?"
15265	She dreamed and sang over that dark field, and again and again appealed to him:"S''pose it should n''t come up after all?"
15265	She felt impelled to go forward and ask-- what?
15265	She had thought of him as a boy-- an old student, a sort of confidential servant; but what had he thought?
15265	She held her burning head-- was not everything plain?
15265	She helped herself to a chocolate and called out musically:"Pa, are you going to town today?"
15265	She must be sent to boarding- school, somewhere far away; but the money?
15265	She must offer this unsullied soul up unto God in mighty atonement-- but how?
15265	She rang the bell, asking the trim black maid:"Is there a person named Caroline Wynn living in this house?"
15265	She seemed to feel rather than hear his presence, and she inquired softly:"Who''s it, Bles?"
15265	She smiled and said sweetly,"Wo n''t you sit?"
15265	She tried to think it out: what could have happened?
15265	She was thinking rapidly-- Was this the Way?
15265	She wondered how she had done her part-- had she been too eager and school- girlish?
15265	She''ll be reasonable, wo n''t she, and placate the Cresswells?...
15265	She''s planning to call some day-- shall you be at home?"
15265	Should he be one?
15265	Somewhat to Miss Taylor''s surprise Miss Smith said nothing until they were parting for the night, then she asked:"Was Miss Cresswell at home?"
15265	Successful?
15265	Suppose Mr. Alwyn should take this occasion to make a thorough defence of the party?"
15265	Suppose he asked Caroline Wynn to help him in this case?
15265	Suppose such a conjunction should come to pass?
15265	Teerswell nodded and said:"Well, what do you think of last night?"
15265	That''s the way it is now, see?
15265	The Negroes are not, then, very efficient?"
15265	The Silver Fleece, how was it?
15265	The Sun, the Swamp?
15265	The World, the great mysterious World, that stretched beyond the swamp and into which Bles and the Silver Fleece had gone-- did it lead to the Way?
15265	The lagoon had been level with the dykes a week ago; and now?
15265	The swamp, the eternal swamp, had been drained in its deepest fastness; but, how?--how?
15265	The teacher in Miss Taylor strove to rebuke this unconventional greeting but the woman in her spoke first and asked almost before she knew it--"Why?"
15265	The way where?"
15265	Then Mary Taylor, whose conscience was uncomfortable, said:"But, Mr. Cresswell, you surely believe in schools like Miss Smith''s?"
15265	Then Miss Taylor said, absently:"Zora, what do you propose to do when you grow up?"
15265	Then after a pause:"When will you go, Zora?"
15265	Then faint and fainter whisperings: what could be worse than death?
15265	Then he said:"Colonel Cresswell, who drew this contract of sale?"
15265	Then in sudden fury,"Ye generation of vipers-- who kin save you?"
15265	Then she said dreamily:"We''se known us all our lives, and-- before, ai n''t we?"
15265	Then there was Zora; what had she said and hinted to Mary?
15265	Then what?
15265	Then with a puzzled look:"I wonder why?"
15265	They ca n''t concentrate; notice how some slept when Dr. Boldish was speaking?
15265	Treat Alwyn well and call on Miss Wynn as usual-- see?"
15265	Used to be one of our servants-- you remember?
15265	Usually, while he played at loving, women grovelled; for was he not a Cresswell?
15265	Was Cresswell back of Taylor?
15265	Was Death the Way-- the wide, dark Way?
15265	Was Elspeth now at peace?
15265	Was it all straight, or did the whole move conceal a trick?
15265	Was it not a rather dangerous experiment?
15265	Was it not the King''s Highway?
15265	Was it possible that the price of Alwyn''s manhood would be her husband''s appointment to Paris?
15265	Was not everything clear?
15265	Was there a change, sudden, cataclysmic?
15265	Was there, after all, some"nigger- loving"conspiracy back of the cotton combine?
15265	Was this rain beating down and back her love for him, or had she never loved?
15265	Was this--"Nell''s"?
15265	We''ll get this committee which Taylor suggests appointed, and send it on a junket to Alabama; you do the rest-- see?"
15265	We''ll put the cotton inspection bill through in the last days of the session-- see?
15265	Well, I''m going to give you some money-- do you know why?"
15265	Well, why has he no appointment?
15265	What a world it was, and after all how far was this black boy wrong?
