27300You are certain you have lost nothing, Tom?
27300You are not afraid of losing your way, Tom?
27300You are sure they did n''t scalp you, Tom?
27300You came-- to-- do-- me-- a-- service?
27300You can if you wish,answered Tom;"but why should you kill me?
27300You could n''t leave your companion, could you, and come into my stateroom?
27300You did n''t see what I was buying, then?
27300You do n''t mean that you are going to give it to me, sir?
27300You do n''t think he would take advantage of you?
27300You do n''t?
27300You have? 27300 You proposed to increase the mortgage on my place?"
27300You remember those two poor fellows whom we found scalped the other day?
27300You were making a living at home, were you not?
27300You wo n''t be offended, sir?
27300You wo n''t go right on, Tom, will you?
27300You wo n''t think much of Cincinnati''s hospitality, eh, Tom?
27300A brisk, plausible young man, of twenty- five, passing through the aisle, observed the vacant seat, and, pausing, inquired,"Is this seat engaged?"
27300Accordingly, he said to the interpreter:"Shall I show you a trick?"
27300Are the stories we hear of fortunes made in a short time to be relied upon?"
27300Are you alone?"
27300Are you going to Cincinnati?"
27300Are you going to join friends there?"
27300Are you thinking of buying a railroad ticket?"
27300Are your eyes good?"
27300But for what had he escaped?
27300By the way, have you got a key about you?
27300By the way, have you secured a stateroom?"
27300Ca n''t we make him contribute to our necessities?"
27300Can you see anything?"
27300Could he unfasten and mount one before any of them a wakened?
27300Did you see who it was?"
27300Did you tell him that you were going to California?"
27300Did you tell him where you keep it?"
27300Do n''t you see that they are scalped?"
27300Do they sell him here?"
27300Do you think there are any Indians near?"
27300Do you understand me?"
27300Do you understand?"
27300Do-- do you think it has been done lately?"
27300Does he know you?"
27300Does it ever go to your legs?"
27300Fellow citizens, is this a free country, where a man of reputation can be summarily arrested at the bidding of another?
27300Ferguson?"
27300Ferguson?"
27300Ferguson?"
27300Ferguson?"
27300Ferguson?"
27300Ferguson?"
27300Ferguson?"
27300Fletcher?"
27300Fletcher?"
27300For fear you would be found out?"
27300Graham?"
27300Graham?"
27300Graham?"
27300Graham?"
27300Graham?"
27300Graham?"
27300Graham?"
27300Has the train moved on?"
27300Have we arrived?"
27300Have you any plan to suggest?"
27300He walked in, and, approaching the desk, inquired:"How much do you charge at this hotel?"
27300How about our stout friend?
27300How can I thank you?"
27300How can you possibly serve me?"
27300How did you find out?"
27300How did you get away?
27300How do I look now?"
27300How do you go from Pittsburg?"
27300How does his money hold out?"
27300How is it with you, friend Ferguson?"
27300How long have you been thinking of California?"
27300How long shall you remain here?"
27300How long will it take to get Tom ready?
27300How much money have you?"
27300I suppose if anything happens to you, Peabody, you will expect us to bury you?"
27300I suppose you know that?"
27300Is he not too young?"
27300Is it agreed?"
27300Is n''t that hard?"
27300Is that your father that was standing by you?"
27300Is the boy crazy?"
27300Jane seems old- maidish, do n''t you think so?"
27300Know Pittsburg House?"
27300Miles, there is much danger?"
27300Now, my friend, how much do you expect to get in the first year?"
27300Once in California, what could he not do?
27300Others have, and why should n''t I?
27300Peabody?"
27300Peabody?"
27300Peabody?"
27300Peabody?"

27300Peabody?"
27300Scott?"
27300Scott?"
27300Shall I lead you there?
27300Shall he go?"
27300Should two palefaces, one of them a boy, escape from them?
27300Suddenly Squire Hudson said, eying him keenly:"Do you know how much money there is in this wallet?"
27300To what boy of sixteen is it not?
27300Tom, will you pass me the potatoes?"
27300What do you know about him?"
27300What do you mean by your insolence, I say?"
27300What do you take me for?"
27300What is it?"
27300What makes you think he would pay more attention to me, who am only a boy?"
27300What may your name be?"
27300What was he to do?
27300What will be easier, then, for your companion to rob you during the night?"
27300What will you take?
27300What would become of the poor boy in that case?"
27300What would my friends say if I should appear in this rig on Washington Street?"
27300What''s the odds, as long as you''re happy?"
27300When breakfast was over, Mark Nelson pushed back his chair, and said:"How soon can you get Tom ready to start, Mary?"
27300Where are you going to stay?"
27300Where can he be found?"
27300Where is his stateroom?"
27300Who is it?"
27300Who will go with the boy?"
27300Who will volunteer for the service?"
27300Who''s at the door, Bridget?"
27300Why ca n''t you stay here with us?"
27300Why could n''t old Fletcher let me ride?"
27300Why did I ever leave home?"
27300Why should I?
27300Why should he be expected to take his turn?"
27300Why should n''t this happen to me?"
27300Why should we not kill you?"
27300Why, my young friend, how much money do you think I had with me?"
27300Why?"
27300Will you let the boy go?"
27300Wo n''t go?"
27300Wo n''t you come there, too?"
27300Would Squire Hudson be forbearing, if ill- luck came?
27300You ai n''t a minister, are you?"
27300You are alone-- are you not?"
27300You are not near- sighted, are you?"
27300You do n''t mean that?"
27300You do n''t mean to say----""That I killed them?
27300You wo n''t forget that I am your friend?"
27300You''ve got a gold watch, have n''t you?"
27300asked Tom, checking an inclination to laugh;"are you sick?"
27300do you know him?"
12823A day?
12823A thousand dollars?
12823A thousand dollars?
12823About what hour was this?
12823After you''d made them remarks what did you do?
12823Ai n''t that a gambling''game?
12823Ai n''t we gone about fur enough for to- night?
12823Ai n''t you mistaken, boy?
12823Ai n''t you, Joe?
12823Am I a millionaire yet?
12823And get no money for my window?
12823And how long have you been at work?
12823And them are the clothes?
12823And what will Susan Smith say?
12823And you have nothing in view for to- morrow?
12823And you really want to go?
12823Are any larger pieces ever found here?
12823Are you a Southerner?
12823Are you alone? 12823 Are you getting into pecuniary difficulties, Joe?"
12823Are you going to leave me, gentlemen?
12823Are you hoping to make your fortune in California?
12823Are you in earnest?
12823Are you on the square?
12823Are you positive of it?
12823Are you temperance fellers?
12823But his head is still safe on his shoulders?
12823But where do you mean to pass the night?
12823But wo n''t you find it more comfortable here?
12823But you wo n''t be a drayman all your life?
12823Ca n''t I go with you to the office?
12823Ca n''t you take me into partnership?
12823Can I do anything for you?
12823Can I get lodging here?
12823Can a man save money here?
12823Can you give me a room?
12823Can you prove that you had the money?
12823Could it have been Hogan?
12823Could n''t I pay you fifty dollars now and the rest as soon as I can earn it in California?
12823Could n''t help it?
12823Cut off his head with a scythe?
12823Did Oscar tell you the way that happened?
12823Did any one see him last night?
12823Did he fight?
12823Did n''t I hear you quoting Greek just now?
12823Did n''t my father give you a suit of mine?
12823Did n''t the relatives make any fuss about it?
12823Did n''t they arrest you for murder?
12823Did n''t you hear them last night?
12823Did n''t you know the penalty attached to theft in the mining- camps?
12823Did n''t you make a living here at home?
12823Did they see you?
12823Did you ever kill anybody else?
12823Did you hear or see anything of him during the night?
12823Did you kill any of them?
12823Did you leave the corpse lyin''out under the trees?
12823Did you notice anything in his manner that led you to think he intended robbery?
12823Did you sell him that ticket?
12823Did you take off your clothes?
12823Do I understand you to offer a hundred dollars for my ticket?
12823Do n''t he look wicked, the young scamp?
12823Do n''t you feel well?
12823Do n''t you find what you want?
12823Do n''t you know?
12823Do n''t you remember a tall, slab- sided youngster of thirteen, that used to stick pins into your chair for you to set on?
12823Do n''t you think his clothes are good enough?
12823Do n''t you want that wood outside sawed and split?
12823Do such things often happen at the North?
12823Do you doubt my word, stranger?
12823Do you feel ready for breakfast?
12823Do you hear that drayman?
12823Do you know him, then?
12823Do you know how I served a man last week?
12823Do you know the man that cheated you?
12823Do you know where he was bound?
12823Do you know, Joe,said Joshua, in a tone of satisfaction,"I am richer than I was when I sot out from home?"
12823Do you mean it?
12823Do you mean to insult me?
12823Do you mean to insult me?
12823Do you think I have?
12823Do you think less of me for that?
12823Do you think the boy''s got much money about him?
12823Do you think we shall meet any of the critters?
12823Do you want me to keep it for you?
12823Do you want to die on the spot?
12823Do you want to go to California?
12823Do you want to pay in advance to secure your bed?
12823Do you want to sell?
12823Do you want to work for me?
12823Do you want us to adopt you, Hogan?
12823Does he mean to say a gentleman like me would steal his paltry money?
12823Does he?
12823Does it pay?
12823Does this business pay?
12823For this boy?
12823Great Jehoshaphat, who''s that?
12823Has any one on board seen it in your possession?
12823Has business been good?
12823Have I made a joke? 12823 Have a hack, young man?"
12823Have n''t you got a drop of something to brace me up?
12823Have n''t you got any baggage?
12823Have you a pistol?
12823Have you a reliable cook?

12823Have you been to California?
12823Have you brought home five thousand dollars, too?
12823Have you called on Watson?
12823Have you done well at the mines?
12823Have you ever been there, sir?
12823Have you found a job already?
12823Have you got a ticket?
12823Have you got money enough to get out to the mines?
12823Have you got room for three more?
12823Have you got some more bread and rice, John?
12823Have you had any supper, sir?
12823Have you heard anything of Joe since he went away?
12823Have you just come out here?
12823Have you made much money in this eating- house?
12823Have you succeeded?
12823Have you thought before of going?
12823Have you turned lazy all at once?
12823He did? 12823 Her name is Susan, is n''t it?"
12823Hogan?
12823How about Susan? 12823 How are ye, strangers?"
12823How did it come out?
12823How did you know it?
12823How did you rest, Joe?
12823How do I look now?
12823How do you do it?
12823How do you do, Joe?
12823How do you do, Oscar?
12823How do you know but I may get up in the night and rob you?
12823How do you know that I can be trusted?
12823How does it feel?
12823How far away is Californy?
12823How far is it?
12823How fare you?
12823How happens it that a classical scholar like you finds himself in such a position?
12823How have you made out?
12823How have you prospered at the mines?
12823How have you succeeded so far?
12823How long have you been here?
12823How much are you going to be paid for the job?
12823How much are you worth now?
12823How much better can a man do in California?
12823How much capital can you furnish?
12823How much did you make?
12823How much did you pay for it?
12823How much did you say it costs to get there?
12823How much do I make a day?
12823How much do you ask for the business?
12823How much do you charge?
12823How much do you make, say, in a week?
12823How much do you think I am earning?
12823How much do you think I have brought home?
12823How much does it cost to go out there?
12823How much gold did you dig?
12823How much have you earned to- day, Joe?
12823How much have you?
12823How much money did you make yesterday?
12823How much money have you got left?
12823How much will they charge you?
12823How much would you be willing to pay me, Major Norton?
12823How much you want?
12823How old are you, Joseph?
12823How shall I make my restaurant more attractive?
12823How shall we get in?
12823How soon can you give possession?
12823How soon do you sail?
12823How was it? 12823 How was that?"
12823How will you do it?
12823I guess that''ll strike''em at home, eh, Joe?
12823I say,Hogan continued insinuatingly,"wo n''t you let me stay here to- night?"
12823I suppose you will now take charge of your own business?
12823I suppose you''ve come out to make your fortune?
12823I take it you are a stranger in the city, my young friend?
12823I thought you said your ticket was n''t good?
12823I wonder if I could n''t get the chance to saw and split that wood?
12823I wonder if any one will have to go hungry on our account?
12823If it is so good, why do n''t Oscar wear it?
12823If it''s a one- horse restaurant, why do you want to become my partner?
12823If you are rich already, why do you go out to California?
12823In debt?
12823In spite of your large outlay for clothes?
12823In what denomination was the money?
12823Is Joe Mason at home?
12823Is anything else taken?
12823Is anything the matter with you, sir?
12823Is he a foreigner?
12823Is he a robber?
12823Is he dead, or only feigning?
12823Is he reduced to that?
12823Is it a good place?
12823Is it inhabited, I wonder?
12823Is it missing?
12823Is it mornin''?
12823Is it possible?
12823Is it really you?
12823Is n''t it the suit Oscar got stained?
12823Is that all you''ve got?
12823Is that cheap? 12823 Is that personal?"
12823Is that right?
12823Is there anything else you want?
12823Is there gold in California?
12823Is this really San Francisco?
12823Is this the office of the California steamer, sir?
12823It could n''t be five thousand dollars, now, could it?
12823It seems cur''us, do n''t it, Joe?
12823Joe''s luck? 12823 Joe, have you got a rope?"
12823Joshua, where are the provisions? 12823 Joshua,"said Joe, some three months after their arrival,"have you taken account of stock lately?"
12823Kinder scrumptious, do n''t I?
12823Lend me half- an- ounce of gold- dust, wo n''t you?
12823Like it?
12823Look here, my friend,said Joshua,"ai n''t you rather cantankerous?"
12823Look here, sir,said the sandy- haired man, addressing himself to the German,"what reason have you for charging this boy with breaking your window?"
12823Looks curious, does n''t it? 12823 May I go with you?"
12823Maybe you one friend of his?
12823Mr. Morgan, will you take my money and invest it for me just like Joe''s? 12823 Mr. Morgan,"he said,"will you lend me seven hundred dollars?"
12823My boy, what is your name?
12823My mother''s aunt?
12823No-- do you?
12823Nor you?
12823Not digging gold, I suppose?
12823Not remember Harry Carter, your old chum?
12823Not to kill him? 12823 Object?
12823Of course they are; but I''ll tell you what, father,said Oscar, with a sudden idea,"you know that suit of mine that I got stained with acid?"
12823One thing more-- you wo n''t kill this man that brought you here?
12823Only a dollar? 12823 Perhaps you think Annie Raymond would n''t walk with you in that suit?"
12823Pooty good joke, ai n''t it?
12823Say? 12823 Sha n''t I inconvenience you, sir?"
12823Shall I stay with you?
12823Shall I take this man along, sir?
12823Shall I take your bundle?
12823Shall you have any more work to do?
12823Sleep here?
12823So soon, Joe? 12823 So you could play hookey and cut up all you wanted to?"
12823So you have come to the city to try your luck?
12823So you have found work already?
12823Spin it off, will you?
12823Stranger,said he, with one hand on the handle of his knife,"are you tired of life?"
12823Strangers,said he,"did you ever hear of the affair I had with Jack Scott?"
12823Suppose I should n''t?
12823Suppose it belongs to a fire- eater, or a man from Pike County?
12823Suppose we have a game of poker?
12823Suppose we let you go-- will you promise not to make another attempt upon this place?
12823Suppose you ca n''t find work?
12823Suppose you give that to Joe?
12823Surely you are not Joshua Bickford?
12823That was n''t exactly the way I thought of it, sir, but are you not afraid to trust me to that amount?
12823The deer you killed and your friend claimed?
12823Then he would prefer to see you come home in rags?
12823Then just be careful, will you? 12823 Then one part is true-- you have a Cousin Bill?"
12823Then you are satisfied?
12823Then you did n''t kill any?
12823Then you do n''t believe his stories?
12823Then you have been lucky?
12823Then you have really bettered yourself?
12823There ai n''t no suspicious characters round, are there?
12823Two thousand dollars?
12823Two thousand?
12823Was he as near as that?
12823Was it any more?
12823Was n''t you lucky in meetin''my friend Joe in New York, and raisin''money enough out of him to pay your passage out to Californy?
12823Was that the case with other miners?
12823We''ll share alike?
12823Well, Joe, do you want to come back to your old place?
12823Well, Mr. Bickford, what are your plans?
12823Well, boy, what''s your business?
12823Well, boys, how do you find it?
12823Well, my boy, where are you bound?
12823Well, what shall we do now, Joe?
12823Well, what would you do with him?
12823Well,growled Rafferty,"I hope you are satisfied?"
12823Were you afraid of him?
12823Were you afraid?
12823Were you arrested?
12823Were you robbed of it?
12823What about the deer?
12823What about them Indians? 12823 What are you going to do next?"
12823What are you going to do with me?
12823What are you lookin''at?
12823What are you scared of, pard?
12823What are you so long about?
12823What are your plans, Joe?
12823What deer?
12823What did I do?
12823What did I do?
12823What did you do when the teacher give you a lickin''?
12823What did you do with his body?
12823What did you do?
12823What did you say?
12823What did you used to do when you was to hum?
12823What do I want? 12823 What do you ask?"
12823What do you charge for lodgings?
12823What do you charge to stay here?
12823What do you mean by your impudence?
12823What do you mean, you pesky critter?
12823What do you mean?
12823What do you mean?
12823What do you say to buying a revolver?
12823What do you say, Joe?
12823What do you take me for? 12823 What do you think of it, Joe?"
12823What do you want it for-- to gamble with?
12823What do you want, Johnny?
12823What do you want?
12823What do you want?
12823What does he expect?
12823What does he look like?
12823What does the boy mean?
12823What for? 12823 What has become of him?"
12823What have you to say in answer to this man''s charge?
12823What have you to say to these charges?
12823What induced you to steal it?
12823What is it, sir?
12823What is it?
12823What is that?
12823What is that?
12823What is the lowest price for passage?
12823What made you come home, Seth, if you were gettin''on so well?
12823What men sleep near you?
12823What rent do you have to pay?
12823What right has a hired boy to object to a stain? 12823 What shall I do?"
12823What shall I do?
12823What sort of work shall you try to get?
12823What use would you make of it?
12823What would Oscar say to that? 12823 What would dad say if he knowed where I was, right out here in the wilderness?
12823What would you advise me to do, Mr. Morgan-- sell out the lots at the present advance?
12823What would you have done?
12823What''ll you charge?
12823What''ll you give?
12823What''s going to be done with it? 12823 What''s got into the critter?"
12823What''s that?
12823What''s the matter with me?
12823What''s the matter, my boy?
12823What''s the matter?
12823What''s up, I wonder? 12823 What''s wanted?"
12823What''s your favorite vittles?
12823What''s your game, pard?
12823What''s your plan?
12823What, Joe?
12823What?
12823What?
12823When did you arrive?
12823When did you miss the money?
12823When did you see it last?
12823When do you expect to be able to pay me, then?
12823When does the next steamer go?
12823Where are you going to spend the night?
12823Where are you going?
12823Where are you going?
12823Where are you going?
12823Where are your new clothes?
12823Where did you get it?
12823Where did you get that suit of clothes?
12823Where did you get this?
12823Where did you place it?
12823Where do you sleep?
12823Where do you want to go?
12823Where has all your money gone?
12823Where have you been?
12823Where is it?
12823Where was he?
12823Where was you raised?
12823Where?
12823Who are you?
12823Who broke it?
12823Who dares to speak to me thus?
12823Who has seen Hogan?
12823Who have you there?
12823Who insults the Rip- tail Roarer?
12823Who is he?
12823Who is it?
12823Who is the other man?
12823Who told you I tried to enter your restaurant?
12823Who would have expected to find any redeeming quality in such a man as that?
12823Who would take it?
12823Who''s he?
12823Who''s your boss?
12823Why did n''t they turn upon you? 12823 Why do n''t you buy the land, and get rid of the rent?"
12823Why do n''t you save your money and buy some, instead of gamblin''it away as you are doin''?
12823Why do n''t you wear it longer?
12823Why do n''t you?
12823Why do you wish to sell out?
12823Why have n''t I seen you before?
12823Why not? 12823 Why not?
12823Why not?
12823Why will he be disappointed?
12823Why, that''s Joe Mason, is n''t it? 12823 Why?"
12823Why?
12823Will I? 12823 Will dat do?"
12823Will he stay?
12823Will they follow me, I wonder? 12823 Will you answer my question?"
12823Will you call him? 12823 Will you give me time?"
12823Will you promise not to shoot?
12823Will you stay here three days, to initiate my young friend into the mysteries of the business?
12823Will you take a hand, Bickford?
12823Will you two,turning to Joe and Bickford,"decide what shall be done with this man?
12823Wo n''t you share our supper?
12823Wo n''t you stop and rest with us?
12823Would that have helped you or your family?
12823Would you like to buy out the restaurant?
12823Would you object to retaining charge for-- say for four months to come?
12823You are sure this is the man, Joe?
12823You did n''t make any bargain, then?
12823You do n''t expect us to stay and take care of you, do you?
12823You do n''t happen to have a bottle of whisky with you, strangers?
12823You do n''t mean to say that you have cleared that amount?
12823You do n''t mean to say that you have made a thousand dollars?
12823You do n''t mean to say this is your own place?
12823You do n''t mean to say you are Harry Carter?
12823You do n''t mean to say you''ve declined?
12823You do n''t remember me?
12823You do n''t say so? 12823 You do n''t say you''re from Maine?
12823You do n''t think of going back to the city?
12823You do?
12823You expected something more, Joe, did n''t you?
12823You have got some money, have n''t you?
12823You here?
12823You here?
12823You hope so, but you do n''t feel confident?
12823You mean I''m puttin''on airs''cause I wo n''t drink with you? 12823 You promise, then?"
12823You say the business pays well?
12823You tell me I lie?
12823You want me to explain? 12823 You want my money?"
12823You want to get away, hey?
12823You would n''t like some hot water for shaving, would you?
12823You''re Methodists, ai n''t you?
12823You''re a Yank, ai n''t you?
12823You''ve heard of Pike, hain''t you?
12823You''ve slept out at the mines, have n''t you?
12823''Did you stick that pin in my chair?''
12823''Do you think I''m afraid of you?''
12823Ai n''t I good enough?"
12823Ai n''t you afraid she has married the store clerk?"
12823Ai n''t you our servant?"
12823And yet you gave him supper?"
12823And you are not afraid to land in California with this sum?"
12823And you?"
12823Anything particular?"
12823Are any such to be found here?"
12823Are they the best you''ve got?"
12823Are you a college graduate?"
12823Are you a stranger in the city?"
12823Are you going to brush me off?"
12823Are you going to the mines?"
12823Are you sure there''s no one else with him?"
12823Are you willing to take this boy into your stateroom in my place?"
12823As to the stains, what right had a boy like Joe to be particular?
12823At this moment a rough- looking fellow stepped forward and said heartily:"Is n''t this Charles Folsom?"
12823Be there any Indians about here?"
12823Bickford?"
12823Bickford?"
12823Bickford?"
12823Bickford?"
12823Brock?"
12823By the way, how about your ticket?"
12823By this time Mr. Bickford had completed his breakfast and in an anxious tone he inquired:"What''s the damage?"
12823CHAPTER X THE DETECTED THIEF"Do you expect to be seasick, Joe?"
12823CHAPTER XVII JOE STARTS IN BUSINESS"Do you think you can keep a hotel, Joe?"
12823CHAPTER XXXVI HOGAN''S DISCONTENT"Why do n''t luck come to me?"
12823Can you recommend one to me?"
12823Can you start for the mines to- morrow?"
12823Did n''t I tell you you could n''t go aboard without a ticket?"
12823Did n''t that occur to you?"
12823Did n''t you come here alone?"
12823Did you break it?"
12823Did you ever hear the like?"
12823Did you find it, stranger?"
12823Did you railly see any?"
12823Do n''t you feel afraid of what may happen?"
12823Do n''t you feel any of the symptoms?"
12823Do n''t you think I know my own bullet?''
12823Do n''t you think so yourself?"
12823Do you feel confidence in this man whom you are leaving in charge?"
12823Do you remember your Aunt Susan?"
12823Do you understand me?"
12823Do you understand, Hogan?"
12823Do you want to go with us?"
12823Does he mean to be a drayman all his life?"
12823Ever eat punkin pie, stranger?"
12823Ever eat''em, stranger?"
12823First, what hotel shall I go to?"
12823Folsom?"
12823Friends, what shall we do with him?"
12823Gentlemen,"turning to the miners who were sitting or standing about him,"do you believe this stranger or our two friends?"
12823Have you had any supper?"
12823Have you no partner?"
12823He pressed forward, and said eagerly:"Will you sell it to me for that?"
12823Hogan?"
12823How could he attract Watson''s attention?
12823How did you do it?"
12823How did you smuggle yourself aboard?"
12823How do I know you was runnin''from the bear?
12823How fur is it to the mines, do you calc''late?"
12823How long have you been out here?"
12823How many teachers did you shoot when you was a boy?"
12823How much do you want to pay?"
12823How much do you want?"
12823How much does he pay you?"
12823How much might there be now, do you think?"
12823How old are you?"
12823How old be you?"
12823How was that?"
12823How will that do?"
12823I believe you have n''t a large cash surplus?"
12823I suppose fifty dollars would n''t be enough?"
12823I wonder to whom we are indebted for this repast?"
12823I''ve caught you, have I?
12823Is he here?"
12823Is he really dead?"
12823Is it because you ai n''t satisfied with your clothes?"
12823Is the job finished?"
12823Is your family well?"
12823It looks kind of strange, do n''t it, Joe?"
12823It was this: He asked himself why could he not steal the nugget which Joe had found?
12823Jest pinch my arm, will you?"
12823Larkin?"
12823May I ask from what part of the country you come?"
12823Maybe you''d like to get us hauled up, would you?"
12823Morgan?"
12823Nicholas?"
12823Now, that ai n''t fair, no ways-- think it is, stranger?"
12823Now, what brings you out here?
12823Now, where can I meet you?"
12823Say you so?"
12823Shall I shoot?"
12823Shall we have a game?"
12823Shall we string him up?"
12823Shall you remain in San Francisco?"
12823So he''s getting too proud to talk to me, is he?
12823Suppose you take me into business with you?"
12823Tell us, wo n''t you?"
12823The main thing is, will you go with me?"
12823The next question was, How should he get there, and should he go alone?
12823Then Joshua said:"What are your plans, Joe?
12823There-- do you see the critter?"
12823Was it by the same man who made the attack upon me?"
12823Was it possible that Major Norton was going to open his heart and give him what he had long secretly desired?
12823Was n''t that cursed hard?"
12823Was n''t you lucky the other day to get away from the bear?"
12823What art can minister to a stomach diseased?
12823What do you say to going along with me?"
12823What do you say?"
12823What do you think he is doing?"
12823What do you think they''ll do with me?"
12823What have you got inside?"
12823What is your name, boy?"
12823What is your name?"
12823What shall we do?"
12823What will dad say?"
12823What would be a fair price?"
12823What''ll you drink?"
12823What''ll you take?"
12823What''s his name?"
12823What''s the prospects here?
12823When do you expect to start?"
12823When do you want to go?"
12823When their new comrade''s regular breathing, assured Joe that he was asleep, he said:"Mr. Bickford, what do you think of this man who has joined us?"
12823Where are you going?"
12823Where are you livin''now, Joe?"
12823Where are you staying?"
12823Where are you stopping?"
12823Where have you put it, Joe?"
12823Where is your luggage?"
12823Where is your trunk?"
12823Where might you be travelin''?"
12823Where might you hail from?"
12823Where were you living?"
12823Whereabouts in Maine did you live?"
12823Why could n''t he take me in as partner?
12823Why did n''t he let me sleep in his place to- night?
12823Why should the deacon want Joe Mason?
12823Will you carry on the restaurant for me for three months, if I give you your board and half of the profits?"
12823Will you come, Joe?"
12823Will you trust me for my supper?"
12823Years afterward, when Joshua found himself the center of a social throng, he was wo nt to say,"Ever heard that joke I made about Susan?"
12823You are a stranger to him, do n''t you see?
12823You do n''t expect me to dress you like Oscar?"
12823You know Jim Graves, who used to have his shingle up as a lawyer on Nassau Street?"
12823You know the way, do n''t you?"
12823You might die and then what use would the money be?"
12823You never told a lie, did you?"
12823You were born tired, were n''t you?"
12823demanded his captor suspiciously,"You want to know us again, do you?
5417A commission-- of what kind?
5417A love- letter?
5417About so long?
5417And for the terms?
5417And how is Luke?
5417And is that all the satisfaction I am to get for my broken head?
5417And the bonds were not there?
5417And then your time will be at your disposal?
5417And what did you answer?
5417And what is that?
5417And who is Roland Reed?
5417And whom do you represent?
5417And you are the janitor of the schoolhouse?
5417And you have n''t seen him since?
5417And you inferred that they had not come honestly by the tin box?
5417And you think he did n''t get them in that way?
5417And, of course, he does not know you?
5417Are you going to stay long in Detroit?
5417Are you going?
5417Are you much hurt?
5417Are you quite sure of this, Melinda?
5417Are you ready, boys?
5417Are you ready?
5417Are you sorry to leave them, Rosa?
5417Are you tired, Luke?
5417Are you willing to show it to us?
5417As I do n''t want to have it supposed that he is in my employ, will you oblige me by writing to him and preparing him for a journey? 5417 Because I''ve been unlucky??"
5417Because I''ve been unlucky??
5417Boy, what''s your name?
5417But how came he to send a boy so far? 5417 But is your friend safe?"
5417But whom shall I send? 5417 But-- but-- you wo n''t think of mentioning this circumstance?"
5417By the by, where is Luke? 5417 By the way, where do you propose to put up in Chicago?"
5417Ca n''t you let it go for a little while longer, Tony?
5417Ca n''t you put it all off till next week?
5417Ca n''t you understand that writing with a pencil makes a difference?
5417Can I leave my pocketbook with you?
5417Can she have property that people do n''t know of? 5417 Can you be ready to take the first train to New York with me in the morning, Luke?"
5417Can you find your way back to the hotel alone?
5417Can you show me the diary?
5417Can you tell me anything about him?
5417Certainly--"In which I mentioned my approaching departure?
5417Certainly; Luke, will you cross the road a minute? 5417 Come, what do you say?"
5417Could I speak with you a moment in private, sir?
5417Could n''t you intercede for me, Randolph?
5417Could n''t you leave me the watch, gentlemen?
5417Did Mrs. Larkin know that you saw it?
5417Did he give any reason for making this request?
5417Did he offer her a fair price?
5417Did he state why he selected you for this trust?
5417Did n''t you say Luke could n''t dance?
5417Did she do so?
5417Did they belong to the bank?
5417Did you commit it to his charge for safe- keeping?
5417Did you question Mrs. Larkin about the tin box?
5417Did you rob the bank?
5417Did you say anything?
5417Did you see the race?
5417Did you wish to see mother?
5417Did your father tell you this?
5417Do I look like it?
5417Do n''t know where he is?
5417Do n''t my clothes look bad, mother?
5417Do n''t they live here now?
5417Do n''t you see his signature?
5417Do they find any fault with Luke?
5417Do you doubt my integrity?
5417Do you feel able to get away from here? 5417 Do you get pretty good pay?"
5417Do you know Luke Larkin?
5417Do you know anything about it, Miss Sprague?
5417Do you know anything about it?
5417Do you know anything about the tin box found in the possession of Luke Larkin?
5417Do you know the man?
5417Do you know where he is?
5417Do you know where they went?
5417Do you know where to find him? 5417 Do you know who it is, Mary?"
5417Do you mean to charge me with being a thief?
5417Do you mean to insult me, you young jackanapes?
5417Do you mind my leaving you?
5417Do you smoke?
5417Do you suppose it is the box missing from the bank, sir?
5417Do you think I could learn enough in that time to venture?
5417Do you think I have improved in appearance, mother?
5417Do you think I will submit to such treatment?
5417Do you think I would go without an invitation?
5417Do you think it contains anything of value?
5417Do you think the box we have was taken from the bank?
5417Do you think there was any arrangement between him and Randolph?
5417Do you want the ten dollars to buy a better watch?
5417Does he attend to the duties pretty well?
5417Does he know of the loss?
5417Does he say from what part of the western country?
5417Does he think you are in earnest, sir?
5417Does the box contain documents of value?
5417Does your father think that?
5417Father,he said,"will you do me a favor?"
5417First, can I do something for your comfort? 5417 For what reason?"
5417Free of incumbrance?
5417Giving time in the meanwhile for the thief or thieves to dispose of their booty? 5417 Going farther?"
5417Going to school out there?
5417Has Squire Duncan broached the subject to your mother?
5417Has Squire Duncan shown his hostility to Luke in any other way?
5417Has anything been heard yet at the bank?
5417Has it been opened?
5417Has the stranger-- what is his name, by the way?
5417Have I got it right?
5417Have I seen you before?
5417Have n''t I seen you before?
5417Have n''t you any more money?
5417Have you any message for me from him?
5417Have you any suspicion?
5417Have you any suspicions, Miss Sprague?
5417Have you anything more to communicate?
5417Have you been invited?
5417Have you come to see the prisoner, also, Linton?
5417Have you found my box of bonds?
5417Have you heard anything yet of the stolen bonds?
5417Have you heard the news?
5417Have you preserved the numbers of the bonds?
5417Have you the key that opens it?
5417Have you the numbers of the missing bonds?
5417He is a friend of Randolph Duncan, is he not?
5417He is president of the bank, is he not?
5417Hope you''re not much hurt, Tom?
5417How am I to know that the boy wrote this?
5417How are you, Randolph?
5417How can you say so, Luke?
5417How did he come to leave the box in a village bank?
5417How did it seem to affect her?
5417How did they receive your communication?
5417How did they?
5417How did you get acquainted?
5417How do you know that the witness is the rightful owner of the box?
5417How do you make that out?
5417How is that?
5417How long has Luke Larkin been janitor at the schoolhouse?
5417How long has he lived in Groveton?
5417How long have you been janitor?
5417How long have you been with them?
5417How long since?
5417How much do I owe you?
5417How much pay does he get?
5417How much was there?
5417How much were you paid as janitor?
5417How will he take it?
5417How?
5417I believe I have won?
5417I have done so, but I wish to ask you if I have been removed on account of any complaints that my work was not well done?
5417I have heard so; but he was acquitted of the charge, was n''t he?
5417I hope you do n''t mean to compare me with a working boy like Luke?
5417I reckon you''re not travelin''on business? 5417 I say, Luke, are you setting up for a dude?"
5417I suppose a part of your time will be given to business?
5417I suppose you are bound to Chicago?
5417I suppose you are not sorry for that?
5417I suppose you know all about investments, being a business man?
5417I suppose you know that my father is now on the school committee?
5417I suppose you no longer suspect that boy Luke?
5417I suppose you would welcome any information on the subject?
5417I suppose, Randolph,he said,"if you win the watch you will give it to me?"
5417I think I shall know you again, but had n''t you better give me a name?
5417I wonder how it would seem to be as complacent and self- satisfied as Randolph?
5417I wonder what mischief Coleman is up to now?
5417I wonder what the janitor will wear?
5417I wonder whether he knew he was giving me as much?
5417If you can spare the time, wo n''t you walk with me to the depot?
5417If you think so, why do you go?
5417Including Randolph Duncan?
5417Is Mr. Sharp or Mr. Ketchum in?
5417Is Squire Duncan in the bank?
5417Is he at leisure? 5417 Is he popular?"
5417Is he thought to be rich?
5417Is it Tony Denton?
5417Is it a good house?
5417Is it about the robbery of the Groveton Bank?
5417Is it possible you distrust me? 5417 Is my sister sick?"
5417Is n''t he a friend of yours?
5417Is n''t it a little singular that Tom should have got in your way?
5417Is n''t my advice good, to put the money in a savings- bank? 5417 Is n''t this rather sudden?"
5417Is promotion rapid?
5417Is that expected?
5417Is that the box on the table?
5417Is that what you wished, sir?
5417Is the squire at home?
5417Is the tin box safe?
5417Is the work likely to occupy you long?
5417Is this Mr. James Harding?
5417Is this the box taken from the bank?
5417Luke,said Linton, the same day,"have you decided what you are going to do?"
5417Luke,said his companion,"does your mother own the cottage where you live?"
5417May I copy them?
5417May I have it, sir?
5417May I have the pleasure of dancing with you next time, Florence?
5417May I inquire what it is?
5417Mr. Denton, will you step into the back office?
5417Mr. Hooper,said Randolph, eagerly,"have you heard about Luke?"
5417Mr. Lawrence,said Luke, for he had learned the clerk''s name,"will you allow me a word in private?"
5417Mr. Reed is in New York, is n''t he?
5417Mr.--ahem!--Denton, I believe?
5417Never speculate in Wall Street, eh? 5417 No, I had n''t heard of it till my arrival in New York can you tell me anything about the matter?
5417Not even a cigarette?
5417Not yet, but--"Permit me to ask you why you allowed me to remain ignorant of so important a matter? 5417 Of course not; but I hope you are not afraid of me?"
5417Of course you can make that statement before the court?
5417Of course, you could hardly be expected to remember a casual guest?
5417Oh, the man that robbed the bank?
5417Pardon me the question, but I take it your means are limited?
5417Perhaps I had better leave you a pistol, my dear?
5417Perhaps you want to rob me yourself?
5417Shall I take the watch? 5417 Shall you appoint Tim, pa?"
5417Shall you invite Tom Harper?
5417She did n''t leave the trunk open, did she?
5417Sick? 5417 So Randolph won the watch?"
5417So he has a son-- how old?
5417So his father has the reputation of being a rich man, eh?
5417So you know the squire''s name?
5417So you want to throw away another thousand dollars, do you?
5417Squire Duncan,asked Mr. Beane,"have you the key unlocking the missing box?"
5417Squire Duncan?
5417Suppose I should give it to you-- what assurance have I that you will not make another demand?
5417Suppose he has?
5417Surely you do n''t mean this?
5417Surely, Melinda, you do n''t think any one in Groveton robbed the bank?
5417That makes it all right, does n''t it?
5417The article lost was a tin box, was it not?
5417The box missing from the vault contained government bonds, as I understand, Squire Duncan?
5417The man who committed the tin box to his care?
5417The man who robbed the bank?
5417The one before us?
5417Then it might have been taken some time since?
5417Then it would not pay to steal them?
5417Then neither have fallen under suspicion?
5417Then what more do you want?
5417Then where is your difficulty?
5417Then you did not say anything about it?
5417Then you know me?
5417Then you wo n''t pay your son''s debt?
5417Then you''re not afraid to shake hands with a bank burglar?
5417There has been a robbery at the bank, has n''t there?
5417They are your own?
5417They''ll feed you well there, and only charge two dollars a day"Is it centrally located?
5417Tom Harper is a friend of yours, is he not?
5417Traveling? 5417 Unexpected?
5417Very well, suppose I did sell him two such bonds?
5417Very well?
5417Was he born in this neighborhood?
5417Was it not rather a singular proceeding to commit what is presumably of considerable value to an unknown boy?
5417Was the bank broken open last night, Miss Sprague?
5417Was there as much as that in the box, sir?
5417Was, or is, anybody suspected?
5417Well, Luke?
5417Well, has this Reed made his appearance in the village since?
5417Well, they keep time, do n''t they?
5417Well, what are you going to do now?
5417Well, what else have you done? 5417 Well, what of it?"
5417Well, what was the result of the trial?
5417Well,he said,"are you going to give me my money?"
5417Well?
5417Well?
5417Well?
5417Were any traces of the robber discovered?
5417Were they coupon or registered?
5417Were they strict with you?
5417Were you a poor boy yourself, sir?
5417Were you implicated in it?
5417Were you previously acquainted with Luke?
5417Were you the man who gave this tin box to the defendant?
5417What am I to do?
5417What are you buying?
5417What are you thinking about? 5417 What arrangements do you think I have made with him?"
5417What business are you in?
5417What can I do for you?
5417What can he wish to see me about?
5417What can the master have to do with a man like that?
5417What could be his object in buying it?
5417What could induce any one to suspect a boy like you of robbing a bank?
5417What could possibly have made him get in Luke''s way?
5417What course do you think we ought to take, Squire Duncan?
5417What did Luke say? 5417 What did he call himself?"
5417What did he say? 5417 What did the old fellow see in the paper?"
5417What difference would that make, sir?
5417What do I-- a rich man-- want of your paltry two hundred and fifty dollars?
5417What do you have to do?
5417What do you know?
5417What do you mean, Melinda?
5417What do you mean?
5417What do you propose to do with the bond?
5417What do you think, Luke?
5417What do you want with ten dollars?
5417What does all this mean, my friend?
5417What does he mean by calling me his dear friend?
5417What does it mean? 5417 What explanation does he personally give of this unusual expenditure?"
5417What has he done?
5417What if I have? 5417 What is it, Randolph?"
5417What is it, sir?
5417What is it, sir?
5417What is it?
5417What is it?
5417What is that, sir?
5417What is the boy''s reputation in the village? 5417 What is the character of the men employed in the bank, the cashier and teller?"
5417What is your name?
5417What is your name?
5417What led you to send for me? 5417 What made you get in my way, Tom?"
5417What makes you say that? 5417 What news?
5417What on earth does Mrs. Larkin do with a tin box?
5417What shall I do with this revolver?
5417What should I mean? 5417 What sort of a boy is Tim?
5417What takes you to the Black Hills, my young friend?
5417What was his name?
5417What was that?
5417What was there in it?
5417What were the denominations?
5417What would he pay?
5417What would you do, Colonel Braddon,one passenger asked of the Western merchant,"if the stage were stopped by a gang of ruffians?"
5417What''s that, Linton?
5417What''s the name?
5417What, then, do you infer?
5417When are you going to Groveton, Luke?
5417When are you to be brought to trial?
5417When did you go there?
5417When did you hand it to him?
5417When did you hand it to me?
5417When did you miss the box?
5417When do you wish your daughter to come?
5417When was that?
5417Where are you going?
5417Where can Luke be?
5417Where did I get it?
5417Where did he get his watch?
5417Where did you get them?
5417Where do you live?
5417Where might you be from?
5417Where was this bought?
5417Where were you the rest of the time?
5417Where were you?
5417Where, then, did you get the bonds?
5417Where? 5417 Which boot is your money in?"
5417Which one?
5417Who be you? 5417 Who can he be,"thought Luke, in wonder,"and why should he have trusted a complete stranger-- and a boy?"
5417Who dared to talk against me?
5417Who is he?
5417Who told you I was a rich man?
5417Who told you?
5417Who was it?
5417Who was the party?
5417Who''s there?
5417Who, then?
5417Why are not you and his son friends?
5417Why did I ever invest in Erie?
5417Why do n''t we see more of you, Luke?
5417Why do n''t you sell at once?
5417Why do you ask?
5417Why does he think of removing me? 5417 Why not?
5417Why not? 5417 Why should I give it to you?"
5417Why should I?
5417Why should I?
5417Why were you not at school to- day?
5417Why, if you desired a place of safe- keeping for your box, did you not select the bank vaults?
5417Why, then,thought he,"did Coleman want to borrow five dollars of me?"
5417Why, you are, are n''t you? 5417 Why?
5417Why?
5417Why?
5417Why?
5417Will I?
5417Will he be home soon?
5417Will that satisfy you?
5417Will you do me a favor?
5417Will you employ detectives?
5417Will you lend me your skates, Randolph?
5417Will you not have him arrested?
5417Will you now? 5417 Will you pay Randolph''s bill?"
5417Without knowing much about it?
5417Wo n''t you come in, sir?
5417Wo n''t you let me go up to the city myself, father?
5417Wo n''t you open the door a minute? 5417 Would he let me examine the volume for 1879?"
5417Would n''t it be well to wait and see whether he does or not?
5417Would n''t it be well, since this is a court, to swear me as a witness?
5417Would you be willing to exchange with him, Luke?
5417Would you object to leave home?
5417Yes, sir?
5417Yes, that is my name; but how did you know it?
5417Yes; do you want to know who it was?
5417You absolutely refuse, then?
5417You are Luke Larkin?
5417You believe, then, there is such a man as Roland Reed?
5417You do n''t think he took them himself, do you?
5417You do, eh?
5417You forget that he has a nice silver watch?
5417You had no other reason?
5417You have seen dancing?
5417You know the bond you gave me the last time I called?
5417You mean Mr. Duncan, the president of the bank?
5417You never told any one that you had a tin box in your custody, I suppose, Luke?
5417You offer this bond as additional margin on the shares we hold in your name?
5417You prefer not to go into particulars?
5417You recognized him?
5417You refer to the clothing and the watch? 5417 You say you have a message for me?"
5417You think I wo n''t be awkward, Linton?
5417You want more?
5417After all, a feller''s got to be somewhere, and, by Jove!-- What''s that?"
5417Am I to give it to him?"
5417And now, what can I do for you?"
5417Are there any complaints of the way I perform my duties?"
5417Are there any little girls at your home?"
5417Are you a friend of his?"
5417Are you a good writer?"
5417Are you alone?"
5417Armstrong?"
5417Armstrong?"
5417Armstrong?"
5417Armstrong?"
5417Armstrong?"
5417As the hackman closed the door of the carriage, Luke asked:"How much is the fare?"
5417Beane?"
5417But how shall I know you again?"
5417CHAPTER V LUKE RECEIVES AN INVITATION"What have you there, Luke?"
5417CHAPTER X MELINDA MAKES MISCHIEF"Where did you hear this, Melinda?"
5417Ca n''t I get you some breakfast?"
5417Can I do anything for you?"
5417Can you give me directions?"
5417Can you guess the reason?"
5417Coleman?"
5417Denton?"
5417Denton?"
5417Did he open the box in court?"
5417Did he own up?"
5417Did he seem to be shocked at my iniquity?"
5417Did n''t I tell you, I have been warned against you?"
5417Did n''t you get my letter from London?"
5417Did you discover any traces of the bank being forcibly entered?"
5417Did you ever see Schaefer and Vignaux play?"
5417Do all the men that travel for your firm get as much salary as you?"
5417Do n''t you have your regular allowance?"
5417Do you fully understand?"
5417Do you know where he went to from here?"
5417Do you know whether the bank has offered any reward for the detection of the thief?"
5417Do you live in New York?"
5417Do you persist in saying that you bought this bond a year ago?"
5417Do you remember purchasing some government bonds for Mr. Armstrong a short time before you left his employment?"
5417Do you see this watch?
5417Do you think he spends two dollars even in a month?"
5417Do you think it would be hard to find them?"
5417Duncan?"
5417Duncan?"
5417Duncan?"
5417Duncan?"
5417Duncan?"
5417From whom did you receive this box?"
5417Gay searchingly,"where did you get this bond?"
5417Gay,"are you aware that this bond which you have brought us was stolen from the Groveton Bank?"
5417Gentlemen, I presume this story makes the same impression on you as on me?"
5417Goin''to settle down in our State?"
5417Had the stranger come honestly by the box, or was Luke aiding and abetting a thief?
5417Harding''s?"
5417Harding?"
5417Has he ever been detected in any act of dishonesty?"
5417Has the box been found?"
5417Have n''t I always stood up for you, and done whatever you wanted me to?"
5417Have n''t I got a good mother?"
5417Have there been any suspicious persons in the village during the last few weeks?"
5417Have you a watch, Luke?"
5417Have you any objection to my setting to work?"
5417Have you ascertained who robbed the bank?"
5417Have you employed detectives?"
5417Have you lost the place already?"
5417Have you obtained any clue?"
5417Have you seen him to- day?"
5417He takes care of the schoolhouse, does n''t he?"
5417How about yourself, Luke?"
5417How can you have the face to come here, Mr. Denton, and tell me that?"
5417How did you break into the bank, Luke?"
5417How did you prove your innocence?"
5417How do you account for it?"
5417How long are you going to be away?
5417How was he going to make up the dollar a week of which he was to be deprived?
5417How was it traced to Luke?"
5417I hope you do n''t think there is any chance of it?"
5417I suppose I can depend upon your keeping your eyes upon him, and letting me know of any suspicious conduct on his part?"
5417I suppose the tin box is locked?"
5417I wonder if my dear friend Randolph will be glad to see me?
5417If it had n''t been for Tom Harper you would have won, would n''t you?"
5417Is Timothy at the schoolhouse?"
5417Is he in New York?"
5417Is n''t it awful?"
5417Is n''t there some wood to saw and split?"
5417Is the amount important to you?"
5417Is there any boy willing to lend Luke his skates?"
5417Is there any one besides himself who has seen this Roland Reed?"
5417Is there anything more you wish to say to me?"
5417Is this your first visit to Chicago?"
5417It is briefly this: Are you willing to receive a boarder?"
5417Larkin?"
5417Larkin?"
5417Lawrence?"
5417Lawrence?"
5417Mr. Sears, will you be kind enough to draw out the necessary papers?"
5417Now, what can you tell us?"
5417Now, who took it from the bank?"
5417Of course, your boss pays your expenses?"
5417Perkins?"
5417Randolph was not wholly without caution, for he said:"But suppose, Tony, I am not able to pay when you want the money?"
5417Reed?"
5417Shall I tell you what I think he is doing?"
5417Shall I tell you what he means?"
5417Shall you have many?"
5417Sprague?"
5417Striding up to Luke''s seat, he said threateningly,"Have you been talking against me, you young jackanapes?"
5417Suppose I give you a lesson?"
5417The direction was given, and Coleman was turning off, when, as if it had just occurred to him, he said:"By the way, can you lend me a five?
5417The pay''s a dollar a week, is n''t it?"
5417Then to the shopman:"Have you a nice suit of black cloth, and of the same size?"
5417Tom Harper, why did you get in Luke''s way?"
5417Tom is n''t here, is he?"
5417Travelin''for your health?"
5417Was it all incurred for billiards?"
5417Was it imagination, or did the bank president look relieved at this statement?
5417Was it to be for good or ill?
5417Was the mysterious stranger the thief, and had he robbed the bank and transferred the tin box to Luke?
5417Were you fatigued after your violent exercise at Florence Grant''s party?"
5417Were you?"
5417What are you going to do with them?"
5417What can be simpler?"
5417What claim have you on me?"
5417What could have induced Tom to get in the way?"
5417What could it all mean?
5417What did he say?"
5417What do you mean?"
5417What does Luke say?"
5417What does it matter to you this week, or next?"
5417What is his name?"
5417What is it?"
5417What is the matter with him?"
5417What led you to think a boy had broken into the bank?
5417What of them?"
5417What other reason could I have?"
5417What other steps have you taken to discover the lost box?"
5417What proof have you that he robbed the bank?"
5417What would Mr. Armstrong say when he learned that the box had mysteriously disappeared?
5417Where could Luke have got his watch and new suit?
5417Where is he from?"
5417Where is he traveling?"
5417Where is your proof?"
5417While she was upstairs, Mr. Manning inquired:"Where did you get the box, Luke?"
5417Who do you think told me of your arrest?"
5417Who is it?"
5417Who was the gentleman?"
5417Why did you act like a fool, as you expressed it?"
5417Why did you not cable me the news?"
5417Why do you ask?"
5417Why should I not?"
5417Why should I suffer because you were imprudent and lost your money?"
5417Why should Randolph feel such an interest, all at once, in his humble office?
5417Will that content you?"
5417Will you buy me a gold one, father?
5417Will you come?"
5417Will you go with me?"
5417Will you remember?"
5417Wo n''t that be fine?
5417Wo n''t that serve as a clue, supposing an attempt is made to dispose of them?"
5417Wo n''t you come home with me?"
5417Would n''t the banker of whom you bought them be able to give you the numbers?"
5417Would you like to know who the messenger was?"
5417You know, I suppose, that I am the owner of the missing box of bonds?"
5417You say you did not know this man?"
5417You''ll be here when I come back?"
5417You''ve lost your thousand dollars, and what have you got to show for it?"
5417Your mother is a widow, I believe?"
5417you admit that you hold such a box?"
26083''A church,''said I;''what do you mean?'' 26083 ''I did,''was the reply,"''Well, what was the reply of the cashier?''
26083''Well, did you see him?'' 26083 About what, mother?"
26083Alone, or is Harold with her?
26083And did you?
26083And have you tried to get another situation?
26083And how old is she, mother?
26083And if I do n''t agree to this?
26083And is nominated for mayor?
26083And it came from my pocket?
26083And now he poses as a philanthropist?
26083And now, Master Harold, do you want to know why I have told you this little story?
26083And so you keep up the acquaintance?
26083And what does she say?
26083And who are you, may I ask?
26083And yet he is popular in Milwaukee?
26083And you accepted?
26083And you are-- excuse my saying so-- poor?
26083And you can find nothing of the pocketbook?
26083And you do n''t find the money?
26083And you had no idea whose house you were in?
26083And you have become a burglar?
26083And you never told me of this?
26083And you really have none of the money left?
26083And you think I will help him? 26083 And your brother-- he is too young to work, I suppose?"
26083And your employer-- is he kind and considerate?
26083Are you going out with Aunt Eliza this morning?
26083Are you going to open an office in Chicago?
26083Are you intimate with this Luke?
26083Are you living in Chicago?
26083Are you mad, Felicie? 26083 Are you really Jack King?"
26083Are you sure the person to whom you sent the money will ever get it?
26083Aunt Eliza?
26083Because I do n''t believe you know,returned Harold,"You''ve probably got some suspicion?"
26083But can nothing be done? 26083 But do newsboys have trunks?
26083But how can such a large watch be afforded for thirty- five dollars?
26083But not true?
26083By that boy?
26083By the way, gentlemen, can either of you tell me where General Grant procures his whisky? 26083 By the way, what is your name?"
26083By the way, what is your position?
26083Ca n''t you convince her of that?
26083Ca n''t you get her to bounce him?
26083Can I do anything more for you?
26083Can I rely on your discretion, Master Harold?
26083Can any be got in the house?
26083Can he have heard of the money intrusted to me? 26083 Can there be two persons answering this description?"
26083Can you tell me how much the watch and chain were pawned for?
26083Can you tell me the value of this watch?
26083Can you think of any other way?
26083Could it have been Harold?
26083Did Aunt Eliza ask you to come this afternoon?
26083Did he get caught?
26083Did he have an opportunity of putting the wallet in your pocket?
26083Did he mention the particular part of the West?
26083Did he, indeed? 26083 Did my aunt send for you this afternoon?"
26083Did n''t I tell you I lost much more heavily than you?
26083Did n''t he say so?
26083Did n''t he? 26083 Did n''t you manage to make money anywhere?"
26083Did she say who the letter was from?
26083Did you do well to- day, Luke?
26083Did you earn much, Luke?
26083Did you have a pleasant morning, Aunt Eliza?
26083Did you know he was a newsboy, Aunt Eliza?
26083Did you mean to give as much as this?
26083Did you mention him to Aunt Eliza?
26083Did you sell them yourself, Luke?
26083Did you speak to him on the subject?
26083Did you speak to him, Luke?
26083Did you take notice of the boy?
26083Did you tell him you felt an interest in him?
26083Did you wish to see me?
26083Did you, Uncle Nathaniel? 26083 Do I know anything about it?"
26083Do n''t it occur to you that you are insulting the lady who brings the charge?
26083Do n''t you believe that I mean to return the change?
26083Do n''t you know me, Louisa?
26083Do n''t you know me?
26083Do n''t you suspect anyone?
26083Do n''t you think I ought to keep the watch?
26083Do n''t you think she ought to discharge Luke?
26083Do you always expect to remain in it?
26083Do you doubt my word?
26083Do you generally carry visiting cards?
26083Do you hear him cough?
26083Do you hear?
26083Do you know anyone in Milwaukee?
26083Do you know anything about it? 26083 Do you know anything of Thomas Browning?"
26083Do you know him?
26083Do you know his name?
26083Do you know how much he gets a week?
26083Do you know how much?
26083Do you know what this refers to, Luke?
26083Do you know when he will be in?
26083Do you know where he lives?
26083Do you know who took my money on that occasion?
26083Do you like him?
26083Do you like it? 26083 Do you mean to accuse me of dishonesty?"
26083Do you mean to extort money by threats?
26083Do you require the whole amount down?
26083Do you take me for a thief, Tom Brooks?
26083Do you think Mr. Browning was honest in his recommendation of the mine?
26083Do you think anyone will open it again?
26083Do you think aunt''s mind is failing?
26083Do you think he will keep it himself?
26083Do you think he''s got the money with him-- the five- dollar bill?
26083Do you think they would be glad to see you?
26083Do you walk or ride?
26083Do you want it for your wife?
26083Do you want to rob me?
26083Do you wish to see me?
26083Do you?
26083Does Aunt Eliza know that?
26083Does Mrs. Merton know you are a newsboy?
26083Does aunt suspect anyone?
26083Does he give any reason for his interest?
26083Does n''t your mother or Aunt Eliza give you any?
26083Does she pay you more than two dollars a week?
26083Does the boy know him?
26083For my mother?
26083For yourself?
26083From whom was the letter, then, mother?
26083Had his uncle told him nothing?
26083Harold, when I entered your aunt''s room, what do you think I saw?
26083Has Luke Walton been telling falsehoods about my son?
26083Has anybody left you a fortune?
26083Has anything happened, Luke?
26083Has he gone back?
26083Has he met your uncle?
26083Has she any lodgers?
26083Have I a paragon? 26083 Have a cigarette, Luke?"
26083Have done with this trifling and tell me why I should n''t hand you over to the police?
26083Have you a headache?
26083Have you a morning_ Tribune?_he asked.
26083Have you any errand you would like to have me do for you?
26083Have you any money for your traveling expenses?
26083Have you any more to say?
26083Have you any suspicion as to who took it?
26083Have you been buying a watch chain, Harold?
26083Have you been here long?
26083Have you discharged Luke Walton?
26083Have you discovered anything at all?
26083Have you ever taxed him with this breach of trust?
26083Have you found anything to do?
26083Have you his receipt?
26083Have you made any discovery of the thief, Aunt Eliza?
26083Have you no friend or friends from whom you could borrow the money?
26083Have you nothing to say for yourself?
26083Have you seen anything of the man you used to be with so much-- Walton?
26083Have you seen my aunt this morning?
26083Have you taken a situation, then?
26083He did?
26083He does n''t know it was me,thought Tom, congratulating himself, and added:"Have you been buying a sewing machine?"
26083He is often alone in the room where the work table stands, is he not?
26083He is really rich, is he not?
26083He''s got a bad cold and is confined to the house?
26083Hello, Harold, what makes you look so blue?
26083His mother an old schoolmate of mine?
26083How am I to let you know what I find out?
26083How are you feeling, Jim?
26083How are you, Butler?
26083How are you, Luke?
26083How are your relations with him?
26083How came you by the watch and chain?
26083How can I? 26083 How can you say so?"
26083How could he have heard about Walton''s money?
26083How dare you insinuate any such thing?
26083How did he get in with your aunt?
26083How did you get in?
26083How do you know I do?
26083How do you know I have any money?
26083How do you know my name?
26083How do you know?
26083How do you know?
26083How does he stand in the city?
26083How does it happen that you are not at the office to day?
26083How does it happen that you lost it?
26083How is this, Luke?
26083How is your mother, Stephen?
26083How long are you going to stay in Chicago?
26083How much did you make to- day, Luke?
26083How much did you make?
26083How much do you make selling papers?
26083How much does Aunt Eliza pay you?
26083How much does he know?
26083How much does the old woman-- beg pardon, the old lady-- pay him?
26083How much does your mother give you as an allowance?
26083How much is it?
26083How much will this position pay you, supposing you get it?
26083How much?
26083How much?
26083How old are you?
26083How should I compel you to do so?
26083How was that?
26083How was that?
26083How''s business to- day?
26083How''s business, Luke?
26083How?
26083How?
26083How?
26083I know where you got that money?
26083I must take some steps-- but what?
26083I say, Luke, wo n''t you take me to the theayter?
26083I say, boy, do you black boots as well as sell papers?
26083I suppose you are employed in some way?
26083I suppose you can not save very much?
26083I suppose you have some object in coming to this city?
26083I suppose you received my letter?
26083I treat her politely, do n''t I?
26083I''m the same old coon, Tom, but I''m down at the heel, while you-- do you really own this fine house, and these elegant fixin''s?
26083If he did n''t take it, who did?
26083If you ever run across this Mr. Thomas, of St. Louis, present him my compliments, will you?
26083In California?
26083In spite of his unworthiness?
26083In spite of your lost pocketbook?
26083Is Mr. Afton in?
26083Is Mrs. Tracy at home?
26083Is business good?
26083Is he a newsboy, too, Luke?
26083Is he attending school?
26083Is he goin''to do it?
26083Is he likely to increase your salary?
26083Is he lying?
26083Is he not dead?
26083Is he ragged? 26083 Is he so rich, then?"
26083Is he the one I am to watch?
26083Is it one he pawned himself?
26083Is it possible, madam? 26083 Is it possible?"
26083Is it the rich Mrs. Merton who lives on Prairie Avenue?
26083Is it you, Warner?
26083Is it you, Warner?
26083Is my niece in?
26083Is n''t he here to- day?
26083Is n''t that high?
26083Is n''t that your name?
26083Is n''t the walk too long for you?
26083Is n''t there anything we can do, mother?
26083Is she a kind lady? 26083 Is that any of your business?"
26083Is that true?
26083Is there no one in this car who believes me innocent?
26083Is this the place, madam?
26083Is this true?
26083It is indeed so? 26083 It is n''t sickness at home, I hope?"
26083It must be inconvenient for you to come so far as our house every day?
26083It''s all right?
26083Knowing how dishonestly I have acted in the past?
26083Listen, Louisa,said Warner,"do n''t you think I am old enough to choose my own company?"
26083Luke Walton?
26083May I refer to you if I apply for a situation?
26083Meanwhile, shall you continue to employ the boy?
26083No, why should I?
26083No?
26083Now, tell me where you live?
26083Now,said Mr. Lincoln,"if Jake Thompson is permitted to go through Maine unbeknown to any one, what''s the harm?
26083Of Prairie Avenue?
26083Oh, that''s it, is it? 26083 Perhaps you''ve got your card about you?"
26083Say you so? 26083 Shall I put you on board the cars?"
26083Shall I send him off, ma''am?
26083She did n''t faint away, did she?
26083She does n''t think I would leave everything to him, does she?
26083She thinks a good deal of you, does n''t she?
26083She, too?
26083Should you know him again, if you saw him?
26083So all corresponds except the name?
26083So it is you, is it?
26083So it''s you, is it?
26083So you broke off?
26083So you doubt it?
26083So you have reformed, have you?
26083Something you bought for her?
26083Suppose I go and tell Mrs. Merton who took her money?
26083Suppose he is; that does n''t hurt him, does it?
26083Suppose we visit a dime museum?
26083Supposing him to be guilty?
26083Supposing it to be the figure you name, how much would you be willing to give me, if she leaves me out in the cold?
26083Surely you ca n''t live on that-- I mean the three of you?
26083Tell me truly, Aunt Eliza, did n''t you suspect me?
26083That does n''t make you rich, does it?
26083That is your judgment, is it, Louisa?
26083That may be; how much does he give himself?
26083That would come out, would n''t it? 26083 That''s queer, is n''t it?"
26083The philanthropist? 26083 The question is, did Browning fulfill his trust, or keep the money himself?"
26083Then what brings you?
26083Then what can you do?
26083Then why do n''t you buy the ticket yourself?
26083Then why do n''t you?
26083Then you are a newsboy?
26083Then you are sorry to receive the letter, mother?
26083Then you can do nothing for me, sir?
26083Then you can do nothing for me?
26083Then you do n''t admire him as much as the public generally?
26083Then you do n''t propose to give up Luke?
26083Then you do n''t share Louisa''s prejudice against Luke?
26083Then you had suspicions?
26083Then you wo n''t give me the trifle I ask?
26083Then your father is n''t living?
26083This Luke and his family are poor, you say?
26083This is rather a slow way of making a fortune, is n''t it, Luke?
26083To whom do you refer?
26083Too hard work, eh?
26083Trifle? 26083 Was he an old or a young man?"
26083Was it in your pocketbook?
26083Was n''t he jolly green, though?
26083Was the man''s name given?
26083Was there much money in it?
26083Was there much money in the pocketbook?
26083Well, I''m sure that is unlucky, but why do you speak to me about it?
26083Well, Mary, what is it?
26083Well, Nancy, how''s mother?
26083Well, mother,he asked, gayly,"how have you passed the day?"
26083Well, she is an old woman, is n''t she?
26083Well, there is n''t anything we can do about it, is there?
26083Well, what is it?
26083Well, young man, what can I do for you?
26083Well?
26083Well?
26083Well?
26083Were n''t you here this morning?
26083Were there no children?
26083What Sunday school do you go to?
26083What are the inducements?
26083What are they?
26083What are you after?
26083What are you going to do?
26083What are you going to do?
26083What are you up to, King?
26083What are you up to?
26083What are your prospects of success?
26083What are your reasons for thinking he is a thief?
26083What are your terms?
26083What brings you here?
26083What can he want with her?
26083What can it mean?
26083What concern is it of yours?
26083What could be easier than for him to open the drawer and abstract the pocketbook?
26083What did he die of?
26083What did he say to you?
26083What did she give it to you for?
26083What did you do there?
26083What did you do with that money Walton gave you on his deathbed?
26083What did you do, Luke?
26083What do you mean by such impertinence?
26083What do you mean by that, Tom Brooks?
26083What do you mean by that?
26083What do you mean by your impertinence?
26083What do you mean? 26083 What do you mean?"
26083What do you mean?
26083What do you say to that, mother?
26083What do you take me for?
26083What do you think has happened, Master Harold?
26083What do you think of Harold''s story, Warner?
26083What do you think of it, Warner?
26083What do you think the boy will do?
26083What do you think, Harold? 26083 What do you think, Warner?"
26083What do you want?
26083What do you want?
26083What does it mean?
26083What does it mean?
26083What does that mean? 26083 What does this mean, Felicie?"
26083What else do you want me to find out?
26083What feller? 26083 What feller?"
26083What for?
26083What has happened to upset her?
26083What have you lost, madam?
26083What is it, Harold?
26083What is it, Warner?
26083What is it?
26083What is it?
26083What is that?
26083What is that?
26083What is the matter now?
26083What is the trouble between you and Louisa?
26083What is the world coming to?
26083What is this I hear about Aunt Eliza having some money stolen?
26083What is this, Luke? 26083 What is your name?"
26083What makes you so late, Luke?
26083What makes you think so?
26083What on earth has carried Harold to a pawn broker''s?
26083What other members of the family are there?
26083What proof have you of this ridiculous assertion?
26083What put California into your head?
26083What sort of a looking man was he? 26083 What sort of a young man is he?"
26083What success did you meet with?
26083What success?
26083What time''s he comin''home?
26083What was he doing here?
26083What was her name before marriage?
26083What was his appearance? 26083 What would Madam Tracy say if she knew it was her own son?"
26083What''s got into the old man?
26083What''s his character?
26083What''s that?
26083What''s the boy''s name?
26083What''s the matter of him?
26083What''s the matter of him?
26083What''s the matter, Aunt Eliza?
26083What''s the matter, Harold?
26083What''s the matter, mother?
26083What''s the matter, mother?
26083What, indeed, ma''am?
26083What?
26083When did Aunt Eliza discover her loss, Felicie?
26083When do you want me to take hold?
26083When do you want to go to Milwaukee, Warner?
26083When were you discharged?
26083Where did I?
26083Where did he get such a pile of money?
26083Where did they live?
26083Where did you get it?
26083Where did you get that bill? 26083 Where did you raise twenty- five dollars?
26083Where do you live?
26083Where do you stay?
26083Where does he live?
26083Where have you been for a few years past, Warner?
26083Where have you been, Warner?
26083Where have you been?
26083Where is Tom Brooks?
26083Where is he? 26083 Where is it gone?"
26083Where is she?
26083Where is that?
26083Where shall I tell the driver to take you?
26083Where would I be if I had been as indolent as you?
26083Where you goin''?
26083Where''d you get it?
26083Where''s Luke goin''?
26083Where''s the five- dollar bill?
26083Who are you?
26083Who can it be?
26083Who could have been the thief?
26083Who did, then?
26083Who expects it?
26083Who has been telling lies about my poor boy?
26083Who is he?
26083Who is it?
26083Who is it?
26083Who is that boy-- one of your acquaintances?
26083Who is this lady?
26083Who it is, Luke?
26083Who told you this?
26083Who told you, Luke?
26083Who was it?
26083Who was the letter from, Luke?
26083Who would give such a lookin''man as I any work?
26083Whose office are you in?
26083Why ca n''t my uncle open his heart and give me more than ten dollars a week? 26083 Why did n''t we see them to- night?"
26083Why did n''t you call on Harold? 26083 Why did n''t you sit down and wait for me?"
26083Why do n''t you ask me, Louisa?
26083Why do n''t you black boots, too? 26083 Why do n''t you let me go out with you and sell papers?"
26083Why do n''t you tell aunt so?
26083Why do you ask when Mr. Browning was in California?
26083Why do you judge so severely of one whom you do not know?
26083Why do you meddle with my business?
26083Why do you say such things, Felicie? 26083 Why do you say that?"
26083Why do you think the boy a thief? 26083 Why do you want ten dollars?"
26083Why do you want to find out who he is?
26083Why does she pass over you, and give the preference to this upstart boy?
26083Why is it a low business?
26083Why is it? 26083 Why not?
26083Why not?
26083Why not?
26083Why should I be interested in your affairs? 26083 Why should I?"
26083Why should I?
26083Why should Uncle Thomas say that?
26083Why should n''t he speak to you, if you know him?
26083Why should they? 26083 Why was he?"
26083Why will he?
26083Why, pard, it''s you, is it?
26083Why, then, has it arrived so late?
26083Why? 26083 Will you be kind enough to explain what you mean?"
26083Wo n''t you be kind enough to give me ten dollars?
26083Wo n''t you come aboard?
26083Wo n''t you come in, sir?
26083Wo n''t you please count it and see if it is right?
26083Would he be likely to tell you the truth-- supposing he had really kept the money?
26083Would n''t it be well to talk the matter freely over with me? 26083 Would n''t you try to oblige your mother?"
26083Would you like to see how it works?
26083Would you mind my inviting him to stay here for a time? 26083 Would you mind taking it round to the office with a note from me?"
26083Would you mind telling me what it is?
26083Yes, I see,''said I;''but why do n''t you make a minister? 26083 Yes, it is I. I hope you are not sorry to see me?"
26083Yes, sir; what name shall I give?
26083Yes,he said, abruptly,"you may give me the_ Times._"When the paper had been paid for, he said:"Do you make a good living at selling papers?"
26083Yes; do you know any family of that name?
26083Yes; what have you to say to it?
26083Yes; why not?
26083You ai n''t going to be such a fool, Luke Walton?
26083You are not too proud to black boots, are you?
26083You are only acting, then? 26083 You are sure the watch is a valuable one?"
26083You can live on that, I suppose?
26083You could n''t let me have a couple of dollars extra, could you, uncle?
26083You do n''t ask me who took the money?
26083You do n''t feel absolutely obliged to spend more than your allowance, do you?
26083You do n''t mean it?
26083You do n''t mean it?
26083You do n''t mean to say that his influence over aunt is dangerous?
26083You do n''t remember me?
26083You do n''t want to go to college?
26083You do n''t, know the real thief?
26083You have more than half of it left?
26083You have? 26083 You know the store of Marshall Field?"
26083You know this?
26083You mean Luke Walton?
26083You plomise me?
26083You really thought as badly of me as that?
26083You received a letter, did you not?
26083You refer to the wart on the upper part of his right cheek?
26083You remember my small work table?
26083You say he appropriated fifty dollars?
26083You say this Browning was once in California? 26083 You think, then, he misrepresented?"
26083You were n''t in the laundry business with him, were you?
26083Your lawyer?
26083Your sister does n''t like it?
26083A little trouble, was n''t there?"
26083After all, why should she not make use of the suggestion?
26083Again he asked himself,"How much of the story does this boy know?"
26083Ai n''t he got cheek?"
26083And have you----""What-- reformed?"
26083And how is she looking?"
26083And now, Tom Butler, what are you going to do for me?"
26083And now, Warner, tell me what are your chances of employment?"
26083And this young man is her son?
26083And you gave the wife the money?"
26083Are there many bad boys among them?"
26083Are you Mrs. Tracy''s brother?"
26083Are you crazy, fellow?"
26083Are you engaged this evening?"
26083Are you going to tell on us?
26083Are you still in the place I got for you?"
26083As I came up, I said,''Dick, what are you about?''
26083As Mr. Browning had himself been in California----""What is that?"
26083As he passed Luke, he stopped and asked,"Boy, have you the_ Inter- Ocean?_"Luke looked up in his customer''s face.
26083As they left the store Mrs. Merton said:"Did you think I was buying this dress for myself, Luke?"
26083At another time a gentleman addressed him, saying,"I presume, Mr. President, you have forgotten me?"
26083Aunt Eliza does n''t prefer him to you, does she?"
26083Aunt Eliza, you have not given Harold a watch, have you?"
26083Browning allowed the man to get upon his feet, and then, facing him, demanded, sternly:"Why are you here?
26083But ca n''t it be ascertained?
26083But do n''t it show a little self- conceit, Louisa?"
26083But tell me, why did you not come to see me before?
26083By the way, I want you to watch that boy who has just gone out?"

26083Ca n''t you understand that?"
26083Ca n''t your father find a better business for you than selling papers?"
26083Can you not replace the money in time?"
26083Can you tell when?"
26083Could anything be more base?
26083Crossley?"
26083Did Mrs. Merton suspect anyone of the theft?
26083Did he leave anything?"
26083Did you come to rob me?"
26083Did you do it?"
26083Did you ever think of going West?"
26083Did you never hear of him?"
26083Did you see him take the money?"
26083Did you tell Louisa this?"
26083Do n''t you remember Jack King?
26083Do n''t you see it?"
26083Do n''t you think so?
26083Do n''t you think you ought to make up to me a part of the loss?"
26083Do you agree with her?"
26083Do you know anything about it?"
26083Do you know him?"
26083Do you know how I got you off?"
26083Do you know where it is?"
26083Do you know, Harold, who the gentleman is to whom you rendered such an important service?"
26083Do you know?"
26083Do you think he really had any business with the boss?"
26083Do you think it probable that Luke opened my drawer, and took out the pocket- book?"
26083Do you think she would help me in this trouble of mine?"
26083Do you understand?"
26083Does that mean your father and mother?"
26083Had he ever been there?"
26083Had you ever seen him before?"
26083Has Bennie gone to bed?"
26083Has he any other source of income except selling papers?"
26083Has n''t Mrs. Merton made a mistake?"
26083Has she done nothing for you?"
26083Have n''t you got five dollars?
26083Have you any evidence?"
26083Have you any instructions?"
26083Have you anyone dependent upon you?"
26083Have you been sewing to- day?"
26083Have you ever met him?"
26083Have you ever noticed how a stick in one''s hand will change his appearance?
26083Have you, perhaps, keys, Master Harold?"
26083He stopped at an establishment not far from Clark Street, and entering the showroom, asked:"What is the price of your sewing machines?"
26083He''s as large as this boy, is n''t he?"
26083How are you getting along?"
26083How are you getting on at school, Harold?"
26083How could I think such a thing?
26083How could he write it after he was dead?"
26083How did you know him?"
26083How do you and Harold get along?"
26083How does he spend his liberal allowance?"
26083How does she know but he is a thief?"
26083How is Mary your mother?"
26083How long had the watch been in?"
26083How long has he been dead?"
26083How long have you been a newsboy?"
26083How long since?"
26083How many papers have you got left?"
26083How much do you think the old lady''s worth?"
26083How much does Luke get?"
26083How much money do you think I have about me now?"
26083How much salary did you receive where you were last employed?"
26083How should he invest it?
26083How was that?"
26083I hope you did n''t mention my name?"
26083I suppose I am to be paid?"
26083I will keep silent about this matter, and no one else knows a word about it, if----""Well?"
26083In some surprise Mr. Lincoln inquired,"For what reason?"
26083Is it a one?"
26083Is it known where the family lives?
26083Is that why you have come to me with this story?"
26083Is the man living, do you know?"
26083Is the old lady still alive?"
26083Is there anything more?"
26083Is there positively no one with whom you are acquainted who is rich enough to help you?"
26083It was apt to attract the attention of strangers, and the question was asked:"Who lives there?"
26083Kean?"
26083Louis?"
26083Luke is in my employ----""In your employ?"
26083Many of the newsboys do?"
26083May I read it to you?"
26083Merton?"
26083Merton?"
26083Merton?"
26083Mother, can I help you about the supper?"
26083Norman?"
26083Now, if I ask you a fair question about yourself, you wo n''t think it an old woman''s curiosity?"
26083Now, may I ask what I can do for you?"
26083Probably you wonder why I have asked you to accompany me?"
26083So he is in favor with your aunt?"
26083So your name is Luke Walton?"
26083The money is her own, is n''t it?"
26083The next thing is, how does the old lady feel toward me?"
26083Throwing it down upon the table he added:"Why ca n''t a committee of this kind occasionally exhibit a grain of common sense?
26083To what do you attribute Louisa''s dislike of Luke?"
26083Tracy?"
26083Uncle Nathaniel, did you hear that?"
26083Was he really a good man, who was unjustly criticised, or was he a sham philanthropist, as charged?
26083Was he rich in California?"
26083Was it for himself?"
26083Were you an acquaintance of his?"
26083Were you going to play pool in this low place?"
26083What are you going to do to- day?"
26083What did you do with Walton''s money?"
26083What do you say, Aunt Eliza?"
26083What do you say?"
26083What do you think?"
26083What does a woman know about boys?
26083What has a jury got to do with me?"
26083What has become of Butler?"
26083What is all this to me?
26083What is the name?"
26083What is your business, boy?"
26083What more can you tell me about this boy?"
26083What of him?"
26083What was the accident?"
26083What would become of us?"
26083What would the gentleman think of me?"
26083When the patient had taken down a cup of hot drink, he turned to Luke and said:"How can I thank you?"
26083Where and how had he become familiar with the name of Thomas Browning?
26083Where are you going?"
26083Where can we have a private conference?"
26083Where did my nephew get his gold watch?"
26083Where did you see him, Harold?"
26083Where have you been?"
26083Who can have robbed me?"
26083Who has had the chance of putting the wallet into your pocket?"
26083Who''d have thought that this''ere mansion belonged to my old friend and pard?"
26083Who?"
26083Why did n''t I have the sense to shut and lock the door?
26083Why do n''t you get a place in a store or an office?"
26083Why do n''t you hire a small store, and do a general periodical business?
26083Why do n''t you put Harold up to offering his services?
26083Why do you stay in Chicago?
26083Why not?"
26083Why should I not treat you like any other burglar?"
26083Why should he?"
26083Why should n''t he?
26083Why should they have so easy a time, while there are so many who do n''t know where their next meal is coming from?
26083Why should this boy, Luke, have keys?
26083Why?"
26083Will you take my place?"
26083Would he, too, try to throw suspicion upon Luke in order to screen himself, if he were the real thief?
