61863You pay?"
40008Do you fast too?
40008Do you know these is two man- o''war''s boats?
40008In what manner?
40008Well, sir,said I,"what do you think I am best to do?"
40008And another was, what can I say to the people?
40008But he could harley believe it, with the voice of,"How can these things be?"
40008Do you believe these things?"
40008Do you want money, or anything else?
40008He answered again, saying,"What use is it to put a dead man below?"
40008He answered,"Why do n''t you stand up here and say something to the people?"
40008He begun to belch out,"What is that to thee?
40008He likewayse asked me,"Do you pray?"
40008He looked at me and said,"Do you think God would be just to send you to hell?"
40008He said,"Is that your sir name?"
40008He said,"What then is the matter?"
40008He saw me coming, and asked me with a smile,"Well, Captain, how is it with you now?"
40008His answer,"They are a good sorte of people,"so then I asked him,"Do you know the precher?"
40008I asked him,"Do you know any of them?"
40008I asked,"What fire?"
40008I asked,"What sort of people are they?"
40008Once I remembered she asked me, saying,"Carter, did not you feel your self very sorry when you was first convinced of sin?"
40008One of them saw me fall, ran to my assistance, and taking hold of me under the arm says,"Who are you?"
40008So as I thought he was making game of me, I answered,"Who will hear me?"
40008So he took me into a small parlour and said,"What do you want of me?"
40008So in my way home in company with Mr. Cooper, a little before we parted he said,"Capt^{n.}, what is the matter?
40008Then he asked,"What is your Christian name?"
40008What was he to do?
40008You may be ready to ask, Why did we expose ourselves to so much dainger?
40008[ 11]?
40008[ 29]?
40008[ 43]?
40008[ 53]?
40008[ 70]?
17563Was she calculated to carry a cargo to Spain?
17563What boat is that?
17563Where are you from?
17563But as to morality, was there ever a period when the national character was so slack and corrupt as in the eighteenth century?
17563But even after this gross insult to himself, his ship, and his flag, was the commander of a Revenue sloop to obey?
17563But the riding- officers were not solely to blame, for where were the Custom House sloops?
17563But what must we think of a captain who calmly awaits the on- coming of a smuggler''s attack?
17563But, you may ask, how did the Deal boatmen manage to get the tea to their homes without being seen by the Customs officers?
17563But, you will instantly say, would n''t the Coastguard in the smuggling days have seen the barrels as they came along the top of the water?
17563Duke sat down by his side, and the officer, opening his eyes, recognised his man and asked,"Is that you?"
17563How was it they were always absent at these critical times?
17563What happened, do you ask?
17563Whilst these were being taken in hand what should be more natural than that the_ Lyme Packet''s_ master should drift into a local public- house?
17563You will not answer me that question?"
17563You will not tell me whether you do a little stroke in the Fair trade upon the coast?
17563_ A._"Half- ankers?"
17563_ A._"What should I do it for?"
17563_ Q._"Are you or are you not frequently in practice as a smuggler?"
17563_ Q._"Casks of spirits-- is that part of your fishing- tackle?"
17563_ Q._"Did you ever fish for half- ankers?"
17563_ Q._"Did you fire a blank?"
17563_ Q._"Did you hit her?"
17563_ Q._"Is that all the trades you follow?"
17563_ Q._"Is that all?"
17563_ Q._"What do you fish for?"
17563_ Q._"Will you answer that question?"
17563_ Q._"You never do such things?"
23387A sense of duty, indeed,muttered Becky,"what would he have said if his precious son had been packed off to sea like poor dear Master Jack?
23387All ready, lads?
23387Any news? 23387 Are you going to say your prayers, young man, before we heave you off?"
23387But can you help me out of this, good Trusty?
23387But have you been out in those seas?
23387But how did you escape from the ship?
23387But what''s in the wind that makes you say that? 23387 But what, Mrs Margery, would you have me do?"
23387But where would you look?
23387Can you pilot us into Stormount Bay, friend?
23387Charley has come back safe, and he has--"Has he brought our boy-- has Jack been found?
23387Dare not do what, Polly?
23387Did you ever go without me, sir, where there was anything to be done, and the chance of a knock on the head?
23387For what can any one want to hurt me?
23387Has Jack come? 23387 Have you told Margery this?"
23387How can you ask that question, Stephen?
23387How can you, Margery, be certain of any such thing?
23387I want to know why the black boy is so much attached to you, and how it was that papa when he picked him up did not see you?
23387If he does, what will be the advantage? 23387 Is it possible?"
23387Is my child ill? 23387 Is she grown?--is she as fair and bright and beautiful as she was?
23387Is your father in trouble, or James? 23387 Now, Tom, are you all ready?"
23387Now, friends,said Tom, addressing the smugglers,"what do you intend to do?
23387Thank you; you are very kind indeed, quite like a brother; and I want to know more about you-- who you are, and why you came to look for me?
23387Then no one is following you?
23387Then why not get rid of the captain and his family?
23387Tom, have you said yours? 23387 Vary well, vary well,"said the Frenchman, still mocking at Charley;"Ve vill take you wid us, eh?"
23387Well, Margery, what is it that you have to tell me about my old book?
23387What are they, Maggy Scuttle?
23387What brings you here, Peter, at this time of night?
23387What can you do with people like him, Mr Tom, at sea? 23387 What do the people up at the Tower say to the ghosts, which have been appearing there night after night I''m told?"
23387What is it all about, Margery?
23387What is it that you have heard that makes you think so?
23387What, do you think that you could hope to make Christians out of such naked savages as those are?
23387Where do you come from? 23387 Where have you carried the little girl to?"
23387Who are you all?
23387Who are you?
23387Who told you that?
23387Why do n''t you marry her yourself?
23387Why do you ask those questions?
23387Why, where am I?
23387Ah, not you tink we do wid you?"
23387And are they well?--do they ever expect to see me?--can they believe that I am alive?
23387Are you captain, or am I?"
23387Becky, does you say your prayers?
23387But where were those they had gone out to rescue?
23387Charley went first and announced himself to Becky, who immediately exclaimed under her breath,"Is he come, Master Charles?"
23387Could there be another passage independent altogether of the vault?
23387Dear Charley, have you brought him?"
23387Do you really believe that he is alive?"
23387Has he reached you safely?"
23387Have you made your peace with Heaven in the only way it can be made?"
23387He had not gone far when the voice of some one from behind a hedge cried out,"Who goes there?
23387How would you like to have one of your own boys or young brothers treated as you threaten to treat him?
23387It was n''t the ghosteses, I suppose, Mister Charles?
23387Master Jack, is it you?
23387Mother Herring, do you promise us success in our venture, we''ve been waiting long enough for it?"
23387She long way from dis,_ mon garcon_,"said the captain, in a mocking tone;"Vould you like go see her?"
23387Was it the little girl''s fancy, or not?
23387Was not that it, Polly?"
23387Was the hut deserted, or was the person whom Peter had seen waving his hands as the canoe drove past still its occupant?
23387Were none preserved?
23387What could she want at that hour of the night, in so lone a place?
23387What do you think, captain?
23387What do you want?"
23387What good can killing the boy do to any of you?
23387What sort of bedsteads have they got to sleep on?"
23387You see that bright light just now, beaming out from the top of the cliff it seems?
23387and look here-- what''s this?"
23387answered the captain;"but it''s just this-- if anything was to happen to me, what would my wife and child do without you, Tom, to look after them?"
23387any news?"
23387are you there?"
23387croaked out old Mother Herring;"what business has he to come interfering with people''s rights?"
23387exclaimed Margery,"how could you guess so quickly?"
23387has Jack come?
23387is it so?"
23387is it?
23387is she dead?
23387is that you?"
23387out of this''?"
23387what is this coming down on us?"
23387what''s got hold of the ship now?"
23387where is she?"
35397And could there, papa, have been_ really_ any danger of their searching us?
35397And do you, Farmer Barton, honestly think,said Mr. Hooker,"that we_ want_ a public house here?
35397And how am I to buy snuff out of that[l]?
35397And is it not the over- plenty of labourers, that makes labour cheap? 35397 And is not acting contrary to law for the sake of any one''s good will, or good word, pretty much the same as doing so for a bribe?
35397And ought you not, my dear Emily, to pay obedience to the laws, under the protection of which you live? 35397 And what else but the laws,"said Mary,"protect your house from plunder, and your wife and children from violence, when you are far away?
35397And what then,said Hannah;"did not the Almighty say,_ Increase and multiply_?"
35397And what_ do_ you call being_ wicked_?
35397And why should they not wait? 35397 But is it not enough to drive a man to despair,"said Barton,"to talk to him about death and judgment, and future punishment?"
35397But surely the magistrates will not set up a new public house without the signature of the clergyman to the certificate?
35397But surely, John, you are not for preventing marriages?
35397But what has that to do with the poor rates?
35397But what,replied Stanley,"shall you do in this business?"
35397But why should he do it at such a time-- when Bob has a broken leg to vex him?
35397But, John,said Hannah,"you are not for knocking up the poor laws altogether?"
35397Do just tell me,answered his brother overseer,"have we already labourers enough to do all the work of the parish?"
35397In the first place, can you tell me, why wheat is so cheap just at present? 35397 No, I do_ not_ know it; poor Bob was nobody''s enemy but his own; and if he did get drunk now and then, what was that to any body else?
35397Some smuggling transaction, I dare say,replied the Admiral;"but why did that detain you so long?"
35397Then is not increasing the number a bad thing for the poor themselves, if they already stand in each other''s way? 35397 Then why do you suffer the road to continue in this state?
35397Then why should he not dare to touch you?
35397Then why was not the hedge cut, and a tunnel made in the gateway to carry off the water?
35397This certificate,said Mr. Hale the chairman,"has not the clergyman''s name; how happens that?"
35397To help you?
35397Well, Hannah,said one of the party,"and what did you get from the justices?"
35397What is it?
35397What should you say, Hannah,said the same old man,"of a justice who acted contrary to law for the sake of a sum of money?"
35397Who is your surveyor?
35397Why do not you think that the poor rates are an encouragement to early marriages?
35397Why do you speak of ladies only, papa? 35397 Why how can you make that out?"
35397Why no,said James,"it''s not quite so bad as that; but what do the Scriptures say about the laws, or about smuggling?"
35397Why should you be more uneasy now,said James,"than when I was nothing but a fisherman?
35397Why, do you think that he is prevented by any sense of religion from putting his threat in execution?
35397Why, mother,answered Jack,"what harm is there in poor Will?
35397Why, papa?
35397Why, what''s the matter?
35397--"Yes; but could he do otherwise?
35397Among ourselves, unless we give our working people less employment, how can we, for what they do, pay them higher than we do?
35397And are you lady- smugglers quite sure that you are clear of all participation in this accumulated guilt?
35397And do you not see, that building cottages is just the way to increase them?
35397And is it_ ill- natured_ of Mr. Hooker, to try to save a man from falling into the pit of destruction?"
35397And then after a little pause, added,"How soon do you think James will be home again?
35397And then again-- who employs so many men as Farmer Oldacre?
35397And what''s the use of it?
35397And, after all, what is the harm of smuggling?
35397Are you not afraid of meeting him?"
35397At length Emily said,"Come, cousin Henry, can not you put in a word to help us?"
35397At length she opened her eyes, and wildly looking round her, exclaimed,"Where is he?
35397Besides, do n''t you remember, what drunkenness and quarrelling we used to have before Tomkins''s house was put down?"
35397But do I say he shall be_ saved_?
35397But how seldom do you hear-- in the country at least-- of penalties being enforced from a sense of public duty?
35397But this few of them think of doing, for_ why should they favour the parish_?
35397But under the present system, if they do it at all, they do it by_ stealth_; for_ why_, say they,_ should we favour the parish_?
35397Dare you be so uncharitable as to declare that he is past hope, that there is no remedy, but that he will certainly be damned?
35397Do you not see that you have all set your hands to a direct falsehood?"
35397Hannah Reeves was anxiously watching over her, when she opened her eyes, and said in a faint voice,"What, is it you, Hannah?
35397He ventured to remonstrate; but Will answered,"Why, what''s the harm?
35397Here again they ask, why should they favour the parish?
35397How is this to be remedied?
35397If a Christian, you of course acknowledge the Scriptures to be the word of God?"
35397Nay, what must such a wicked man do, who having lived in sin, shall thus happen to be surprised by death?
35397Now is it not a little hard that I must now be forced to help to maintain him, because he chose to squander away his money?
35397Out of what fund is the additional price of labour to be paid, when all our present incomes are, as it were, mortgaged to them?
35397Pray, what may you give to Tim Nesbit?"
35397Should they get higher wages, would that make them less poor, if in consequence they worked fewer days of the week proportionably?
35397The Scriptures teach us_ to submit ourselves to every ordinance of man_; why?
35397The door had hardly closed, when he came back, and a second time, taking Emily''s hand, said,"You are not angry with me for what I said?"
35397Upon what do the hares, and pheasants, and partridges feed?"
35397What brings you here so early in the morning?
35397What do I determine in this matter?
35397What has made thee so shy of late?"
35397What then do I resolve?
35397Why, did''nt Bob tell you that he was turned methodist?
35397Why, has''nt he fined me fifteen pounds?"
35397Will you admit a word or two on the other side of the question?
35397[ Footnote i:"_ Worthy._ Pray, Mr. Bragwell, what should you think of a man, who would dip his hand into a bag, and take out a few guineas?
35397_ Worthy._ But suppose that bag stood in the king''s treasury?
35397did he ever refuse_ any_ poor person, who was really in want, any thing that he was able to give?"
35397girls,"he exclaimed upon seeing them,"where_ have_ you been all this time?"
35397said Barton laughing,"why, how old are you?"
35397said John,"what news do you mean?"
35397said Nanny,"what''s the matter?"
35397said he,"and what brings you all to Chippingden?"
35397that is what you mean, is it?
35397then you think that he is afraid of you, and that you are more than a match for him?"
35397there''s no use in a poor person''s going to them,"said Hannah,"they''re all for the farmers?"
35397they have not torn him from me?"
35397what are you at there?"
35397what business has this dunghill here?
35397where is he?
35397why can you find none of my_ kindness_ at home?"
12946A kid, eh? 12946 All shipshape, boys?
12946American flag, did you say?
12946And will they search for the strange vessel?
12946Are we far from the Everglades?
12946Are you here? 12946 Are you in there?"
12946Boat? 12946 Boat?
12946Bound for Key West now?
12946But we''ll camp tonight on Palmetto Key, cross over to the shore the first thing to- morrow morning-----"Before daylight?
12946But where are the soldiers all this while?
12946Ca n''t you tell us something about him?
12946Camp, eh? 12946 Canoe?
12946Could you, Dave? 12946 Did n''t they see you, or hear the engine?"
12946Did you say cigar, Branks?
12946Do you think they''re hiding near here?
12946Eh, Dave; how about it?
12946Eh? 12946 Have you another match?"
12946Have you read much of the history of those days, captain?
12946How can you tell?
12946How do you know?
12946How shall we land?
12946Hugh, where are you?
12946I was asleep,he said,"but when----""Real unkind o''your friends to wake you up, eh?"
12946Is the dog barking at us or at him? 12946 Lem Vinton, eh?
12946Perhaps I''d better sneak around, ahead of those two rascals, and warn Dave and Billy to lie low? 12946 Picket duty?"
12946See any stars?
12946See? 12946 Shut up, will ye?"
12946That so?
12946That you, Harry?
12946That?
12946The boat? 12946 They will, eh?
12946This is better than those stuffy little bunks in the cabin, is n''t it?
12946Trying to dodge that craft that just passed us, or trying to catch her?
12946Well, what do you think of that?
12946Whar your frien''s?
12946What are you staring at?
12946What are you- all doin''thar, youngster?
12946What did you expect me to do, Durgan?
12946What do you think of the idea, Alec?
12946What for so much hurry?
12946What is it? 12946 What is it?"
12946What made you jump when you heard that thar howl?
12946What on earth can they be trying to smuggle?
12946What you goin''to do?
12946What''s become of Dave and Billy?
12946What''s the news?
12946What''s yer business here, anyhow? 12946 When we get back to Key West, what''s the first thing to do, Captain?"
12946Where is the cur?
12946Where--- how----did you get it?
12946Whereabouts?
12946Who are they? 12946 Who are they?"
12946Who is your_ biggest_ hero?
12946Who would n''t be, I''d like to know?
12946Who you- all got thar?
12946Who''ve you got aboard?
12946Why have n''t they followed us here?
12946Why not aboard the sloop?
12946Why?
12946Will you permit me to make a suggestion, Lieutenant Driscoll?
12946Will your father think we are ungrateful guests if we go off for a day or two so soon after the cruise?
12946Wonder if he has seen our captured launch or a boat out at sea?
12946Wonder what he''s doing now?
12946Wonder why I waked up so suddenly?
12946Would n''t mind addin''a little excitement ter the end of the trip, would ye?
12946You do n''t believe they''d kill him?
12946You mean--- you do n''t approve of that part of the plan?
12946You were? 12946 ****** Meanwhile, what of the others who remained on the peninsula? 12946 A game of ring- toss, is it?
12946And Billy?
12946And see that tall, skinny, dark man with the oilskin coat over his left arm?
12946Are you sure?"
12946Boxes of rifle bullets?
12946But how do you propose to communicate with us, in case there should be anything doing to- night?"
12946But what''ll they use it for?"
12946CHAPTER II A CONTRABAND CARGO"Well, what d''you know about that?"
12946CHAPTER VII A GATHERING OF THE CLAN"If there are any of the gang around here, where on earth are they?"
12946Ca n''t you speak?"
12946Can you tow us around Spider Key?"
12946Can you understand?"
12946Captain, are you signaling to my father?"
12946Could there be any reason for the reappearance of that smoky blur against the sky?
12946Do n''t say so?
12946Get me?"
12946Have you seen her throwing anything overboard, or picking up stuff--- like boxes or small kegs?"
12946How does that strike you?"
12946How''s everything in the cabin, Dave?
12946I presume you all are willing to serve?"
12946If so, was she following the_ Arrow_?
12946If that brings half the wind its looks promise, I''d ruther have these keys between it and us--- eh?
12946Is anybody else awake?"
12946Keep a sharp eye on strange- looking craft, will you?"
12946Meanwhile, where were these three villains taking him against his will?
12946Shall we heave him into the stream, Joe, or leave him here?"
12946Some others are waving signals and---""What?"
12946That he had been drowned, or attacked by sharks, or lost in a quicksand?---what on earth would they imagine had happened to him?
12946The chief thing which puzzled him was: Why had not the_ Arrow_ given chase to the canoe if his friends had caught sight of it, as they must have done?
12946Then you think they''ll try to leave this part of the coast soon?"
12946Tight and neat?"
12946Understand?"
12946Was it made by the mysterious steamer?
12946Water- tight kegs of dynamite, submerged, but buoyed up by thrice their weight of corks?
12946We ai n''t goin''to let no sneakin''furrin tub show us her heels,---are we, lads?"
12946What are we going to do about it?"
12946What boat?"
12946What d''you think, Dave?"
12946What did I tell you?"
12946What do you think of that?"
12946What have you got there?"
12946What is it?"
12946What kind o trouble?
12946What made you try to git away from us?"
12946What matter if rain should chance to fall during the night?
12946What say?"
12946What were they?
12946What would they think of his prolonged absence?
12946What you- all doin''with_ him_?"
12946What''s she after?"
12946What''s that noise?"
12946What--- what do you want with me?
12946Where can you get one?"
12946Where have they come from?"
12946Where have you been all this time?"
12946Where''s yer camp?"
12946Where--- where are we going?"
12946Who are you?"
12946Wonder who''s that man at the tiller?"
12946Would they join in the fray?
12946You know that''s whar the cap''n of the_ Serapis_ calls out:''Hev ye struck?''
12946ca n''t you tell an honest poor cuss from a crook?"
28735A peg- legged man?
28735A secret passage?
28735Afire?
28735All clear there, Tom?
28735And do you believe,interrupted Frank,"that this man who has bought the old Brownell place may be that central figure?"
28735And he would not run the risk of discovery and capture without some very good cause?
28735And where does Higginbotham figure in this matter, anyhow? 28735 And who is this man who bought it?"
28735And you have n''t heard from any of your fleet that our boat was recovered?
28735Are n''t the profits so large that somebody else with money, some other organizing genius as you say, will take up the work?
28735Are you Lieutenant Summers, sir?
28735Barnum, how many matches have you?
28735But a room without windows?
28735But about matches? 28735 But do you think it''s safe for you to make the trip alone?
28735But how about leaving these chaps behind, Jack?
28735But how about my going to the beach to meet Lieutenant Summers?
28735But how in the world do you know?
28735But what can we do? 28735 But what do you imagine happened to him?"
28735But what''s your proposal?
28735But why in the world should such a move have been carried out?
28735But why should such a man engage in liquor smuggling?
28735But, in the second place,he added, leaning forward and uncrossing his legs;"what good would that do?
28735By the way, Captain,interposed Frank,"keep us posted, will you, on how this affair turns out?
28735Ca n''t we keep''em back here?
28735Calling for us, Sis?
28735Can I help you?
28735Can you make it all right on that bum leg, Bob?
28735Captain Folsom,he said,"is n''t it pretty certain such a move would not be carried out except by a man high in the councils of the smugglers?"
28735Captain, who is this man?
28735Chivalrous? 28735 Did I follow?
28735Did he arrive in a boat?
28735Did n''t what?
28735Did you say Captain Folsom?
28735Do you fellows consider the plane was forced to land? 28735 Do you know what I think?"
28735Do you know where his office is located?
28735Do you want to know what I think? 28735 Fellers on the roof?"
28735First of all, how far is it to Starfish Cove?
28735Frank?
28735Fretting for more adventure, are you?
28735From our station?
28735Got them?
28735Has Uncle George come home yet?
28735Here, Mike, wot d''ye mean, comin''in like this? 28735 Here, where are your hands?"
28735Hey, Frank,called Bob, interrupting their aside;"see how this strikes you?
28735How about it, Bob? 28735 How in the world did he get here?"
28735How much money you got, old thing?
28735How should we know?
28735How so?
28735How, then, does it happen the air is fresh?
28735I wonder----"What?
28735In that case,he asked,"what would be the necessity for this radio- driven airplane?
28735Is Captain Folsom there? 28735 Is all this liquor?"
28735Is she good looking, Della?
28735Is that so?
28735Is that so?
28735Is there any other place where small boats might land conveniently, any other place reasonably near?
28735It would n''t do, of course, to make a raid and capture the plane and their radio plant?
28735Jack?
28735Let me have the glasses a minute, Bob, will you?
28735Let''s consider what to do now? 28735 Now will ye believe me?"
28735Now will you tell?
28735Now, what''s this all about?
28735Oh, I was just wondering why the job was left uncompleted? 28735 Oh, is that you down there?"
28735Or shall we muss him up a bit?
28735See us? 28735 Seeing spooks again?"
28735Shall I tell?
28735Shall we listen to the proposal, Frank?
28735Shall we speak of our discoveries this afternoon?
28735Shall we try him?
28735Shall we try it?
28735So that is part of the Brownell property?
28735So,said Inspector Condon, reading the note on the back of the card;"you are the three chaps who made such a stir in that business in California?
28735Somebody chasing you?
28735That interference again?
28735That so?
28735That you, Jack?
28735That your idea?
28735Then what, Hawkshaw?
28735Then what?
28735Tried it?
28735Turn the tables, Jack?
28735Want to come along?
28735Well, what do you know about that?
28735Well, what made you believe the other plane was watching us?
28735Well, why do n''t you go back to capture Senorita Rafaela?
28735What did Bob say to him?
28735What do you mean? 28735 What do you mean?"
28735What do you mean?
28735What does he mean, may I ask?
28735What does this mean?
28735What else could he say? 28735 What happened?"
28735What happened?
28735What if nothing comes of it? 28735 What in the world are you doing out here?"
28735What in the world can those be?
28735What is it?
28735What is it?
28735What is your idea, Captain Folsom?
28735What man?
28735What next?
28735What say to a plunge before we go up to the house?
28735What shall we do, though, Jack?
28735What was it like this time, Jack?
28735What was to stop him? 28735 What would you give to know?"
28735What''s flying got to do with it?
28735What''s the joke?
28735What''s the matter with his own?
28735What''s the matter with us?
28735What''s the matter?
28735What''s the matter?
28735What, Dad?
28735What, Tom? 28735 What?
28735Where are the others?
28735Where are we? 28735 Where did you see this plane, Jack?"
28735Where have you been?
28735Who do you think this mysterious man behind the operations of the liquor runners can be?
28735Who is he?
28735Who''s that?
28735Who-- who is it?
28735Why did you hurry us away from that office? 28735 Why do n''t you pick on a fellow your size?"
28735Why do you say it has been flying about here for some time?
28735Why has n''t one of us thought of that radio- controlled airplane before? 28735 Why not?"
28735Why not?
28735Why not?
28735Why, are n''t you the lads who were in my office to- day?
28735Why, may I ask?
28735Why, where are Bob and Frank?
28735Why, where did you come from?
28735Why?
28735Wonder what it is?
28735Would n''t you like that, Miss Faulkner?
28735Yes,said Bob, who was comfortably sprawled out in a long low wicker chair;"what''s it all about?"
28735You do n''t expect a good looking girl to be interested in you, do you?
28735You mean he had the nerve to come back here while we were up at the house? 28735 You mean the radio- controlled plane must be put out of commission?"
28735You remember what was said last night about the operations of the liquor smugglers in and around New York?
28735You up, old man? 28735 You''re Mr. Higginbotham, are n''t you?"
28735Also, has anybody got any matches?
28735And that his man calmly walked into the radio plant and operated it for him?
28735And we''re safe so far, are n''t we?"
28735And why did n''t you tell Mr. Higginbotham our reason for trying to discover something about this man who has taken the Brownell place?"
28735And, anyhow, why should any of them attack me?
28735And, say, fellows----""What?"
28735Anything the matter?"
28735Apparently, he had not done so, for his next question was:"Do you fly around here often in your plane?"
28735Are any of you familiar with the interior?
28735Are you offshore?"
28735As Jack deftly laced up the other''s shoes, he said in an anxious tone:"Do you think, sir, those people set the fire?
28735But do them fellers on the roof know it?"
28735But first tell me are you hurt any place other than your head?"
28735But was anyone in that other room, in attendance?
28735But, with a radio land station, why ca n''t such communications be carried on by radio in code?"
28735CHAPTER I TWO MYSTERIES"Not much like last summer, is it, Jack?"
28735Ca n''t you persuade Lieutenant Summers to let us accompany the party?"
28735Can they be some type of torpedo- shaped boat controlled by radio?"
28735Can you be at the beach to guide us?"
28735Captain Folsom,"he added, deferring to the older man,"what do you think we ought to do?"
28735D''ye think now et was them Mexicans comin''back?"
28735Did n''t you?"
28735Did they?
28735Did you follow?"
28735Did you get it together again, Bob?"
28735Do n''t ye know any better, ye scut?"
28735Do n''t you fellows imagine that is about what their plan of procedure would be?"
28735Do you hear me?
28735Do you suppose any boats of the''Dry Navy''about which you spoke are in the vicinity, Captain Folsom?"
28735Do you think our searchlight has been seen by these rascals?"
28735Does it make you sick?"
28735Engine gone wrong, or what was it?"
28735Frank, do you know?
28735Had he seen them pursue him and spy on him as he visited the schooner?
28735Had their captors departed, and left them bound, in that apparently impregnable cell, to die?
28735Have n''t either of you heard the sound of a plane lately?"
28735Have you heard from your father?"
28735Have you tried the door?
28735Hear the shootin''now, do n''t ye?"
28735His name?
28735How about the rest of you?"
28735How about the rest of you?"
28735How could he get rid of these boys without disclosing to them that his was a radio- controlled plane?
28735How could they escape from a cell such as this?
28735How could we do that?"
28735How did the station ever come to be built?
28735How did you happen to change your plans and come here?"
28735I suppose you were trying to point out this other plane to me then?"
28735Is Lieutenant Summers aboard?
28735Is it locked?"
28735Is that how it happened to come down near the schooner?
28735Is that what you mean?"
28735It does n''t go down to the water, does it, Bob?"
28735It would be a catastrophe if the plane burned just at this particular time, would n''t it?
28735Jack, who had been watching developments breathlessly, ran to the bridge, and called:"May I make a suggestion, sir?"
28735Jack?"
28735Just throw it over here on my head, will you?"
28735Look here,"he added, with sudden resolution;"where does that man, Tom Barnum, sleep?"
28735Look up the Secret Service men, or have lunch first?"
28735Might not that have been the indentation made by the radio plane?"
28735My service pistol has been taken, and I presume you fellows also have been searched and deprived of your weapons?"
28735Now what brought him down here?"
28735Oh, boy, but was n''t that a blast in the ear?"
28735Or did it?
28735Or, would the station be deserted?
28735Ought we to go away and leave him?"
28735Remember?"
28735Say, Jack, remember how you felt when we were licked in our attempt to escape from that dive out in San Francisco?
28735Suppose that whatever has happened at that fellow''s radio plant can not be fixed up for a long period, what will Higginbotham do?
28735Suppose we were to swoop down on them in our airplane, they might think, what then?
28735The Bull Fighter Song, hey?
28735The old Brownell place?
28735Then, turning to Captain Folsom, he added:"Well, captain, where do we go from here?
28735Then, what sort of ship was it probable the light came from?
28735Tom, do you?"
28735Tom,"he added, turning to Tom Barnum;"how big was the blaze when you saw it?"
28735Two o''clock?
28735Was it bearing away for the schooner?
28735Was there not a gleam of satisfaction in his eyes, quickly veiled, as he saw who had come to his rescue?
28735Well, what''ll we do now?
28735What are your papers?"
28735What can I do for you?"
28735What d''ye call it?
28735What do you say to laying the matter before Uncle George and Mr. Hampton at dinner?
28735What does it mean?
28735What happened, anyhow?
28735What happened?
28735What is it like?
28735What say?"
28735What should he say if a government boat replied?
28735What time had they left home?
28735What was that?
28735What were you boys doing in the city to- day?
28735What would he find underneath?
28735What''s become of it?"
28735What''s that?"
28735What''s the matter with our hunting up the Secret Service men?
28735Where are the others?"
28735Where are we?
28735Where are you calling from?
28735Where is Captain Folsom?"
28735Where you going?"
28735Where''s Bob?"
28735Who are you?
28735Who commands here?"
28735Who could it be?
28735Who is calling?"
28735Who is he, by the way, Jack?"
28735Who would he find there?
28735Why ca n''t you let well enough alone?"
28735Will you please search your pockets, everybody?"
28735Would the smugglers in the liquor ship offshore be likely to show a light?
28735Yet why should they seek to recapture the Brownell place?
28735You know what?"
28735You think you''re grand, do n''t you, to go flying off in your airplane, on the very day I invite a girl down here to meet you?"
17099A man? 17099 Afraid?
17099Am I right, darlin''?
17099Am I? 17099 And he told us that the third turn- off would lead us to Lonesome Cove, did he not?"
17099And now, sir, what about your meals-- the board for yourself and your man?
17099And what will our new Torch Bearer do to amuse herself after the regular duties of the day are done?
17099And where ith Buthter going to thleep?
17099And you brought this tub through the gale?
17099Any bugth?
17099Anything you want to bring aboard?
17099Are n''t you afraid she will kill herself, or some one else?
17099Are n''t you coming ashore so we may get aboard and see the boat?
17099Are n''t you glad you found out?
17099Are the things inside very wet?
17099Are there any thnaketh here?
17099Are there lotth of people there?
17099Are thethe what you want, Mith Elting?
17099Are you going to leave the sloop?
17099Are you looking for the boxth?
17099Are you sure about that?
17099Asking about me?
17099Being up late?
17099Box? 17099 Buried treasure along this little strip of coast?
17099But ca n''t we do something?
17099But how are we going to cook it?
17099But how did you get wedged under the car springs?
17099But if not, where are they?
17099But it is up to him to do so because he wishes to please that fine woman, your Chief Guardian-- is that what you call yourself, Mrs. Livingston? 17099 But why are they doing that?
17099But why do n''t you go now?
17099But why do you call thith plathe Camp Wau- Wau?
17099But why worry about it? 17099 But you thee thomething, do n''t you?"
17099But, Mith Elting, could n''t I fix it the night before and thleep in it?
17099By the way, Mr. McCarthy,called Mrs. Livingston,"did you mention the name of our new captain, the one who owns and sails the boat?"
17099Ca n''t we patch them?
17099Ca n''t we run?
17099Ca n''t you see how sick I am?
17099Camp? 17099 Can anything hurt you, girls?"
17099Can nothing be done?
17099Could they have sunk? 17099 Did he say what for?"
17099Did n''t you ever hear a wireless machine work?
17099Did you ever hear me complain about having to eat?
17099Did you ever thwallow thalt water?
17099Did you really mean that you wished fish for breakfast, Tommy?
17099Did-- didn''t you find her?
17099Do my father and mother know where we are going?
17099Do n''t you think it would be well to wait for supper?
17099Do n''t you think they can?
17099Do n''t you understand? 17099 Do you really mean that, Harriet?"
17099Do you recall how you felt in that trying moment?
17099Do you think it ith going to rain?
17099Do you think this is perfectly safe?
17099Do you think tho?
17099Do you thuppothe it hath anything to do with the''Thilly Thue''going out in the night?
17099Do you?
17099Do-- do you think we are far from thhore?
17099Does he know where it is?
17099Does n''t it sound glorious?
17099Drowned?
17099Drowned?
17099Dunnage?
17099Eh?
17099Fat like you? 17099 Five mileth, did you say?"
17099Found what?
17099Gear?
17099Girls, are you all here?
17099Girls, girls, are n''t you coming in?
17099Girls, what can we be thinking of? 17099 Got it hard, did n''t you?"
17099Had n''t we better go ashore and give the others a chance to come out?
17099Harriet, ith that you?
17099Have I your permission?
17099Have a nithe, fat thandwitch with me?
17099Have you been here before, Miss Elting?
17099Hello there, Tommy, what are you standing on?
17099How did you feel?
17099How do I feel? 17099 How do I know?
17099How do you feel?
17099How do you know, my dear?
17099How far have we to go?
17099How far ith it?
17099How far?
17099How is the glass?
17099How long a drive have we, Miss Elting?
17099How long did you work over me?
17099How much damage did you do to her, Jane?
17099How much time were we making, Harriet?
17099How near right was I, Captain?
17099How should I know?
17099How soon will you have vacancies?
17099How''d it happen?
17099Hurt yourself?
17099I did nearly drown, did n''t I?
17099I know something questionable is going on here, but what is it?
17099I might say that you looked to find a number of persons here?
17099I suppose, however, that having only one rowboat you will come ashore for us whenever we wish to go out?
17099I trust your father is well?
17099I wish you to tell me frankly if there is any danger?
17099I wonder if I ought to show a light? 17099 I wonder if Jane really suspects that I was out of the cabin in the night, or whether it was one of her incidental remarks?"
17099I wonder if the captain can be making sail to go out?
17099I wonder what Harriet has in her little head now?
17099I wonder what is in it? 17099 I wonder where they put that box and what is in it?
17099Is it straight ahead, Miss Elting?
17099Is n''t he the darling Dad, though, girls?
17099Is n''t it perfectly aggravating?
17099Is n''t it worth that much to hear from your daughter?
17099Is n''t that provoking? 17099 Is n''t this glorious?"
17099Is that right, sir?
17099Is there anything to be done?
17099Is this a fairy story?
17099Is-- is Harriet going to die?
17099It means a blow, does it not?
17099Ith anything the matter with her?
17099Ith there anything elthe that I can do?
17099Ith thith the thurprithe that you were going to give us?
17099Ith your thurprithe ath wet at thith one wath?
17099Ith-- ith she dead?
17099Ithn''t that too bad?
17099Jane, are you there? 17099 Like mythelf, you are n''t fat, are you?"
17099May I try the car, Dad?
17099Meaning that there may be later?
17099Mutht we thtay here in our wet clotheth all night?
17099My dear, what is the greatest desire of a Torch Bearer?
17099Near the camp?
17099No; but there ithn''t any wireleth on the''Thilly Thue,''ith there?
17099Now, do n''t you wish you were_ fat_?
17099Now, girls, do you know where you are?
17099Now, is n''t that perfectly remarkable?
17099Oh, Jane, is it really you?
17099Oh, darlin''s, is n''t she the beauty?
17099Oh, do tell us about it?
17099Oh, is there to be a captain? 17099 Oh, please, Mrs. Livingston, wo n''t you excuse me?"
17099Oh, what has happened?
17099Oh, what thhall we do?
17099Oh, what was that?
17099On what thhore?
17099Out of what?
17099Pleathe, may I have another?
17099Right about what?
17099Say? 17099 Shall I move her arms faster?"
17099Shall we go out and meet her?
17099Shall we pass near her?
17099Sounds like rain on a tin roof, does n''t it?
17099Suppose we find the road? 17099 Surely, Daddy, you are never going to think of walking back, are you?"
17099Swim across the Atlantic? 17099 That is a big drop, is n''t it?"
17099That is the way it is going now, is n''t it?
17099That wath what Jane callth a meth, wathn''t it?
17099The fithh horn? 17099 The girls?"
17099Then I really was just about drowned, was I not?
17099Then why are you watching her tho clothely?
17099Then why ca n''t we Meadow- Brook Girls use it while we are in camp? 17099 Then why do n''t you go?"
17099Then, again, we may be right in the center of it?
17099There ithn''t much danger of falling over the furniture in the dark, ith there?
17099Think we can pull her out between us?
17099This has been a day of excitement, has n''t it?
17099This was a little sudden, but we did n''t mind it so very much, did we, Miss Elting?
17099Tommy, have you been walking in your sleep?
17099Under what circumstances?
17099Wait until daylight? 17099 Want to go back?"
17099Was n''t that a narrow escape?
17099We are a long way from there, are n''t we?
17099We are n''t making much headway, are we?
17099We can have something to eat, ca n''t we?
17099We-- we are on thhore?
17099Well, what do you think about that?
17099Well, wo n''t it be jutht ath much of a thurprithe now ath it will be thome other time?
17099Were I to keep straight on as I am, where would we land?
17099Were you afraid when you found yourself out in the ocean all alone?
17099Were you in the water for long?
17099Wha-- at are they doing?
17099What are the further duties of a Torch Bearer?
17099What are we going to do?
17099What are we going to do?
17099What are you doing on the ground?
17099What became of them after that?
17099What can it mean?
17099What can we do to thave ourthelveth?
17099What did I tell you? 17099 What did he want to know?"
17099What did they do with the box, dearie?
17099What do you make of him?
17099What do you mean, Grace?
17099What do you mean? 17099 What do you suppose it is?"
17099What happened?
17099What have you in mind, darlin''?
17099What is it you folks are planning?
17099What is it, Miss Elting?
17099What is it, darlin''?
17099What is it, dear?
17099What is the trouble, girls?
17099What is too good to be true?
17099What ith it that you underthtand?
17099What ith it?
17099What ith it?
17099What kind of a boat ith it?
17099What makes you think that, Jane?
17099What shall we do with the rest of our things?
17099What will he say when he learns of the accident, Jane?
17099What''s that?
17099What''s the matter, Tommy? 17099 What, girls keep a secret?"
17099What? 17099 What?"
17099When is the boat coming here, Daddy?
17099Where do we stow our belongings?
17099Where do you think you are going, Grace?
17099Where is Harriet?
17099Where is the boy?
17099Where is the treasure?
17099Where ith it? 17099 Where ith that?"
17099Where ith thith Lonethome Cove?
17099Where shall I sit?
17099Whi-- ch way ith the thhore?
17099Which way do I drive?
17099Who bring to the hearth the wood and kindling?
17099Who is a''fraid cat?
17099Who ith going to thleep next to the wall?
17099Who place the sticks for lighting?
17099Who rubs together the tinder sticks and imparts the spark that produces the flame?
17099Who says you are?
17099Whom did you hope to find?
17099Why do n''t you get it yourthelf, then?
17099Why do n''t you tell me when you are going to sit down, so that I wo n''t fall over you?
17099Why is it that one has to sneeze when she does n''t want to, I wonder? 17099 Why would n''t you let me go across, Miss Elting?"
17099Why, Jane, what is the matter?
17099Why, what do you mean?
17099Why-- why, what are they trying to do? 17099 Will it be perfectly safe?"
17099Will she take her group for a swim in the Atlantic?
17099Will the ocean come up here?
17099Will you show me, Tommy?
17099Will your wagon hold them all?
17099Wo n''t you be good enough to explain this mystery? 17099 Wo n''t you pleathe tell uth where we are going?"
17099Would it not be possible to put a wireless outfit on a boat of this kind, Captain?
17099Yes, my dear; but a camp may move, may it not? 17099 You are not the captain, are you?"
17099You are the same old Jane, are n''t you?
17099You are thure Buthter ithn''t going to thleep near me?
17099You believed that to be the case, then?
17099You can feel it all the way down, ca n''t you?
17099You do n''t thay?
17099You fully expected to find some one here, did you not?
17099You going to camp, eh?
17099You know where we are going, do n''t you?
17099You mean you have bought me a new car, Daddy?
17099You put the trunk on, did n''t you?
17099You really have found it?
17099You thay that ith a Democrat wagon?
17099You thee thomething, do n''t you?
17099You went down with the car, then?
17099_ Revolution?_echoed Margery, quickly reviving, while Tommy listened in amazement.
17099Alone?"
17099Am I to be the captain?"
17099And what do you thuppose I found?"
17099And you like the water, eh?"
17099Anything elthe?"
17099Are Harriet''s clothes there?"
17099Are those people crazy?"
17099Are we going to have fithh for breakfatht?"
17099Are you equal to it?"
17099But I''ve found thomething, and--""What did you find?
17099But in reference to the new plan, you will tell the girls to- day, eh?"
17099But what can we do?
17099But what could the men have been doing here?
17099But what good would it do you?"
17099But you do n''t mean to tell me that Harriet really was all but drowned?"
17099By the way, Miss Elting, how much farther do we have to go?"
17099By the way, are we going to be where we can send for supplies and have them delivered?"
17099Can you make out anything that looks like the shore?"
17099Could n''t you stand it any longer?"
17099Did Mr. McCarthy say what the surprise is that he has in store for the girls?
17099Did we rescue all of our equipment?"
17099Did you ever drink any of that water, Mith Livingthton?"
17099Did you ever see such a contrary automobile?
17099Did you see anything of a sail boat in the bay this morning?"
17099Do n''t you know now?"
17099Do n''t you know?"
17099Do n''t you think I am suffering enough, without Tommy making me feel any worse?"
17099Do n''t you understand?"
17099Do n''t you underthtand?"
17099Do n''t you, Harriet?"
17099Do n''t you?"
17099Do you happen to have an extra piece of canvas in camp?"
17099Do you know what has happened?"
17099Do you thee?"
17099Do you think that he is untrustworthy?"
17099Do you think the car is ruined, Jane?"
17099Do you think we could have the cabin?"
17099Do you think you and I will be able to solve the mystery?"
17099Do you think you are really ready?"
17099Do you think you can manage it?"
17099Do you think you understand, Miss Burrell?"
17099Do you wish to spoil the little surprise that I have been planning for you?"
17099Do you?"
17099Got any gear you want to get aboard?"
17099Harriet, will you help me?
17099Have you been this way before?"
17099Have you everything in the car, Jane?"
17099Hazel, will you please see that Grace does n''t sit down on the cold ground?"
17099How can you suggest such a thing?"
17099How did it happen, Jane?"
17099How do you know?"
17099How do you like the idea, girls?"
17099How ever did you manage to keep on the pier until you reached the end, Jane, dear?"
17099How far are we out from home, Captain?"
17099How far do you think we traveled after meeting the man?"
17099How long do you think she will stand it?"
17099How long mutht I thtand here in the wet up to my prethiouth neck?"
17099How thhould I know?"
17099How would you like to be a fithh, Mith Livingthton?"
17099How would you like to be aggravated if you were seasick?"
17099How''d you get out?
17099I am quite sure it will be something worth while?"
17099I did n''t feel it the other time, did I?"
17099I have n''t told anything, have I?"
17099I wish--""The what?"
17099I wonder if my ankle is broken?
17099I wonder what they are going to do now?"
17099I wondered if they had been blown ashore?"
17099Is anybody wet?"
17099Is n''t it, Miss Elting?"
17099Is n''t that silly in me?"
17099Is n''t this splendid?
17099Is there anything you wish to do before we leave, Miss Elting?"
17099It ith true, ithn''t it?"
17099It was all right to tell them to pick up the trail, but what trail was it, and how were they to find it?
17099It was funny, was n''t it, girls, the way that car darted from one side of the road to the other, and we hanging on for dear life?
17099It would embarrass you, would n''t it, Tommy?"
17099Ith that tho?
17099Ithn''t it awful to thnore, Mith Elting?"
17099Ithn''t it nithe to be able to thleep while other folkth do your work for you?"
17099Jane stepped up before him, and with chin on her breast surveyed him from under her eyelashes,"Well?"
17099Jane, is there anything you can think of that we can do?"
17099Jane, will you keep her going?"
17099Jane--""Eh?
17099Know anything about sailing?"
17099Livingston?"
17099McCarthy?"
17099Mrs. Livingston, will you have the other girls assist us?"
17099My father thayth I hop around like a thand flea at a clam bake mythelf, but if I wath fat I could n''t do that, could I?"
17099My footthepth led me-- led me, you understand?
17099Now, can you see the people?"
17099Now, what do you think of that?"
17099Now, what do you think of that?"
17099Oh, where?"
17099Perhaps you thought you were headed up the beach?"
17099Perhaps, now that you feel better, you will tell us how you came so near drowning?"
17099Sea?"
17099Shall I take them out?"
17099Shall you go back to the camp with us, or direct to the cabin?"
17099So that was to be their destination?
17099Sometimes quick work is necessary, and--""I do n''t suppose that being a commodore will prevent my assisting in sailing the boat, will it?"
17099Suppose we make a start?"
17099The trunk is strapped and buckled to the rear end, is it not?"
17099Tho we are going to the thea thhore?
17099Thome cotht that, eh?
17099Tommy, will you please stop annoying Margery?"
17099Want to get up, Tommy?"
17099We were running along nicely and easily-- just at a comfortable jog, when--""How fast?"
17099We''ll save her, wo n''t we?"
17099Wh-- y?"
17099What am I doing?
17099What are you doing here?"
17099What are you doing here?"
17099What became of the car?"
17099What can he be doing with wireless so late at night?"
17099What can it mean?"
17099What did he want in your camp?"
17099What did you do when the car was stopped by the fence?"
17099What do you say, Jane?"
17099What do you suppose he could have been trying to find out?"
17099What does it mean?"
17099What else is there for us to do?"
17099What is it?
17099What is it?"
17099What ith it, a thtorm?"
17099What ith it?"
17099What ith the uthe of trying to thwim any more?"
17099What of it?"
17099What secret could be so dark that it needs hiding in the woods?
17099What shall we do?"
17099What will you do when it rains?"
17099When did you wake up?
17099When do we start for the Cove?"
17099Where are they?"
17099Where can I send a letter?
17099Where did you buy it, Dad?"
17099Where is your life- line?"
17099Where were you going with that box?
17099Where will you find a boat as dry as this, I''d like to know?"
17099Who are ye?"
17099Who goes first?"
17099Who is going to ride?"
17099Why did n''t we think of that before we turned into this road?"
17099Why did you not let me know?"
17099Why do n''t you put a wireless machine on your little ship?
17099Why do you ask?"
17099Why do you thuppothe he wanted to know all of thothe thingth?"
17099Why does n''t some one speak up?"
17099Why does n''t the Cap''n do it himself instead of asking us to take all the risks and all the knocks to boot?"
17099Why, how do you do, Hazel-- and Margery, too?
17099Why?"
17099Will you forget it before to- morrow morning?"
17099Will you have them cold this time, Tommy?"
17099Will you need a light?"
17099Will you please open another can, Jane?"
17099You stopped them, you say?"
17099You thay it ith a Democrat wagon?"
17099what are the Camp Girls coming to?"
17099what is it?"
17099you mean about Harriet and Tommy?"
35483A new crop?
35483All right, Fred?
35483And if we do n''t make it what are you going to do?
35483And nobody knows what his business is?
35483And pretty nearly had a shipwreck, did n''t you?
35483And she took your clothes with her?
35483And then when summer comes you work all the while getting ready for the winter, do n''t you?
35483And you came over with Captain Hastings?
35483And you never saw this man until this summer?
35483And you say there were others with you?
35483And you want me to give you some breakfast, is that it?
35483Anybody with you?
35483Are you afraid?
35483Are you going to find out?
35483Are you going to leave now?
35483Are you ready to start?
35483Are you sure?
35483At one of the hotels?
35483Be I?
35483Besides,he added hastily,"I have n''t a cent of money in my pocket, have you?"
35483Both of you?
35483But how are we going to get away from this place? 35483 But suppose a storm comes up?"
35483But suppose it does n''t? 35483 But what are we going to do?"
35483But where will we stay nights?
35483By the way, Mr. Button,said Fred,"did you find out anything more about that letter?"
35483Ca n''t we signal them?
35483Ca n''t you get into the house?
35483Can you break a hole in the bottom, Jack?
35483Captain,called Fred,"why are you taking us to this island?"
35483Did I take them?
35483Did he help you out of your clothes, too?
35483Did he tell you where Mr. Pluto lived?
35483Did n''t I tell you this Mr. Halsey is makin''all kinds of money? 35483 Did n''t you hire it for the day?
35483Did you come over from Mackinac Island?
35483Did you find anybody there?
35483Did you find them?
35483Did you say you found it?
35483Did you say,he continued,"that you had ever been out in the barn?"
35483Did you see any one?
35483Did you think I stole that watch?
35483Do n''t believe what?
35483Do n''t you know that Ruskin says there is n''t any bad weather? 35483 Do n''t you like it?"
35483Do n''t you think we''re good?
35483Do n''t you want me to help?
35483Do n''t you wish you knew?
35483Do n''t you wish you knew?
35483Do you hear any sound?
35483Do you know what is in it?
35483Do you know where it is?
35483Do you know who lives on Cockburn Island?
35483Do you mean he has left Mackinac Island for good and all?
35483Do you mean smuggling?
35483Do you mean that Mr. Button may not be what he says he is?
35483Do you mean that old barn right behind his shanty?
35483Do you mean the smuggler?
35483Do you see him anywhere?
35483Do you see how dark it is?
35483Do you see who that is?
35483Do you see who that is?
35483Do you suppose,inquired Fred,"if we should shout together we might make them hear?"
35483Do you think this Mr. Button is anything more than he appears to be?
35483Do you want to go there?
35483Do you want to go to Mackinac?
35483Does he have any business?
35483Does he live on Fifth Avenue, New York?
35483Does it show?
35483Does n''t it?
35483Does she know you?
35483Ever been over to Cockburn Island?
35483Fred, is that you?
35483From where?
35483Gone for good?
35483Gone?
35483Good for us, too?
35483Got any breakfast? 35483 Had n''t we better hail the other fellows before we do that though?
35483Have n''t I?
35483Have n''t you seen anything of the other boys?
35483Have you anything to suggest?
35483Have you been here long?
35483Have you brought anything for your friends to eat?
35483Have you got a piece of tin and some tacks or something we can mend it with?
35483Have you got any money with you?
35483Have you got anything more to eat on board your boat?
35483Have you looked in that piano- box?
35483Have you never been there?
35483Have you?
35483He does n''t understand English, do n''t you remember?
35483He''s almost as good a letter writer as he is a dresser, is n''t he?
35483Hey?
35483How about them ten dollars?
35483How are we ever going to get back to Mackinac Island?
35483How are we going to get anything to eat?
35483How are you going to get back to Mackinac?
35483How can he get word to the_ Gadabout_?
35483How did you get away?
35483How did you get here, Fred?
35483How did you get in, Jack?
35483How do I know you will?
35483How do you know? 35483 How do you propose to leave?"
35483How far is it between Drummond Island and Cockburn?
35483How far is this place from Mackinac anyway?
35483How high?
35483How is it with you?
35483How long do you think you''ll be before we land at Mackinac Island?
35483How long have you been here?
35483How long have you been here?
35483How long will that be?
35483How long will that be?
35483How many years have you been coming here?
35483How much do we owe you?
35483How much do you want?
35483How much longer will it take?
35483How much will you charge to take us?
35483How shall we get back to Mackinac?
35483How will that do?
35483I said, is n''t that the same box of leaders that you took out this morning?
35483I think we''ll both be glad to stay and accept your invitation, sha n''t we?
35483I wonder if you''ll sell us some?
35483I wonder what would happen if a fire should break out on the island?
35483If I do n''t tell you then you wo n''t know, will you?
35483In which direction do you think Mackinac Island is?
35483Is anybody living on the island?
35483Is he the man that has the little house that looks like an old shanty about a quarter of a mile back from the shore? 35483 Is it inhabited?
35483Is knocking one of them?
35483Is n''t it wonderful the amount of food a fellow can put himself outside of?
35483Is n''t that Mr. Button himself?
35483Is n''t that the_ Gadabout_?
35483Is n''t there some place where we can get something to eat?
35483Is that all he told you?
35483Is that the box you were looking for?
35483Is that the direction in which we usually go?
35483Is that the reason why he took you there?
35483Is that what you''re going to Cockburn Island now for?
35483Is that you, Fred? 35483 Is there any one here?"
35483Is there anything queer about him?
35483It is agreed,said Fred,"that we are to go back to Drummond Island, is n''t it?"
35483Mate of what?
35483Mikado,called the woman,"did you let those boys in again?"
35483Now who''s going to sail this boat first?
35483On the water?
35483On the what?
35483Rufus,said Mr. Halsey sharply,"have you got that box?"
35483Ruskin, who''s he? 35483 Saw what?"
35483Shall we follow him?
35483Shall we get more fish than we did this morning?
35483Shall we look under the floor?
35483Shall we rap?
35483Shall we try to go back?
35483Signal them? 35483 Smuggling what?"
35483So I see, but how much does that mean?
35483String, how old are you?
35483That is n''t our boat, is it?
35483That''s about as near as you get to things, is n''t it?
35483That''s the same box you took out this morning, is n''t it, Captain?
35483The one who employs you?
35483Then he is a smuggler, is he?
35483Then he was n''t born in Ireland?
35483This is a great job we have been thrown into, is n''t it, Jack?
35483To catch your fish?
35483Wait? 35483 Want me to take the oars?"
35483Was he a red- haired man with big splotches of red on his face? 35483 Was he on shore here?"
35483Was it John or the dog you hit?
35483We do n''t know who he is, do we? 35483 We seem to be left on all sides, do n''t we?"
35483We''re a good ways out of our course, are n''t we?
35483We''re almost as idle as a painted ship upon a painted ocean, are n''t we, Jack?
35483Well, did you find it?
35483Well, he has n''t done all he agreed to, has he?
35483Well, then what do you mean?
35483Well, then why do n''t they come back?
35483Well, there is n''t anything to do except to wait for the time to come, is there?
35483Well, why did n''t you say so, then?
35483Well, why does n''t he show up?
35483What about the third dog?
35483What are you doing here?
35483What are you doing here?
35483What are you doing there, you lubber?
35483What are you doing with that motor- boat? 35483 What are you going to do?"
35483What are you laughing at?
35483What boat did you come on?
35483What can we do?

35483Where are you going?
35483Where did they come from?
35483Where did they go?
35483Where did you get it? 35483 Where did you want it to stop?"
35483Where do you suppose they came from?
35483Where does he live?
35483Where have you been?
35483Where is it? 35483 Where is it?"
35483Where is it?
35483Where is that?
35483Where is the man that lives here?
35483Where is the mate now?
35483Where is your home?

35483Where were you working there?
35483Where were you, fellows?
35483Where were you?
35483Where you going? 35483 Where''s that box?"
35483Where''s the mate?
35483Where''s the_ Gadabout_?
35483Where?
35483Which means that there are other duck islands farther to the east and that we''re not on the mainland shore at all?
35483Which two will you take?
35483Who are they?
35483Who are you?
35483Who are you?
35483Who are''I''?
35483Who did then?
35483Who gave it to you?
35483Who is he, anyway?
35483Who is he?
35483Who is it calling us?
35483Who showed it to you?
35483Who were the people?
35483Who''s in the skiff?
35483Who''s that?
35483Whose side is he on now?
35483Whose skiff is that?
35483Why could n''t it?
35483Why did n''t you stop and put us off?
35483Why did you come to Cockburn Island?
35483Why do n''t they come back?
35483Why do n''t you tell us?
35483Why has n''t he ever been caught?
35483Why, did he have to tramp across the continent to get here?
35483Why, do n''t you know?
35483Why, how do you get here?
35483Why, suppose some boat runs us down in the dark?
35483Will you give us a tow?
35483Will you pay it now?
35483Working?
35483Would n''t you lie if the doctor told you to?
35483Yes, but what''s he doing it in that way for?
35483Yes,replied Grant,"he''s the man who came on Monday, is n''t he?
35483You are sure that''s the way you got it?
35483You did n''t expect the most intellectual individual in the world to be running a tub like that, did you?
35483You do n''t suppose I am always going to be dependent, do you?
35483You do n''t suppose Mr. Button is crazy, do you?
35483You do n''t suppose anything has happened to them, do you?
35483You do n''t suppose we''re anywhere near Mackinac Island, do you?
35483You do n''t think we are likely to have another storm, to- day, do you?
35483You mean a shanty?
35483You mean the skiff in which Grant and George are fishing?
35483You no feex it?
35483You say we''ll be there in about a half an hour?
35483You stay there all winter?
35483Are there many people living there?"
35483Are you going anywhere near Mackinac Island?"
35483At that moment the captain appeared at the stern of the lake boat and raising his megaphone to his mouth, called,"Do you want us to land you?"
35483But what are you two boys doing here?
35483Button?"
35483Button?"
35483Button?"
35483Button?"
35483Button?"
35483By the way, Mr. Button, do you think it is right for us to take them?"
35483CHAPTER VII ONCE MORE ON COCKBURN ISLAND"Who''s that on board the_ Gadabout_?"
35483CHAPTER XV A SIGNAL OF DISTRESS"Where did that sail come from?"
35483CHAPTER XXVI CONCLUSION"Did he see you?"
35483Ca n''t you see that you are?"
35483Can either of you boys see it?"
35483Can you?"
35483Did it come to you through the mail as the other one did?"
35483Did n''t you pay the man to bring you out to Drummond Island and then carry you back to Mackinac?"
35483Did you get all the pay that Mr. Halsey promised you?"
35483Did you have good luck?"
35483Did you read it?"
35483Do n''t you see it?"
35483Do n''t you think we had better go back in the woods and see if we can not find that man who came out of there a little while ago?"
35483Do you hear anything?"
35483Do you know the man who lives there?"
35483Do you know who he is?"
35483Do you mean Mr. Ferdinand Button?"
35483Do you see what he''s doing?"
35483Do you suppose that Mr. Halsey hides in the barn the stuff which he smuggles into the United States?"
35483Do you suppose your boss would be willing to take us over to Mackinac?"
35483Do you think it is Mackinac Island?"
35483Do you think that man wrote the letter?"
35483Does String really think he is going to catch any fish?"
35483Does he have a Japanese servant and is there a little barn back of the shanty?"
35483Ever been there before?"
35483Fred, do you see how this boat is leaking?"
35483George and Grant now had arrived, and laughingly the former said,"What''s the matter with you fellows?
35483George suddenly grasped his friend by the arm and in a low voice said,"Do you know who those fellows are?"
35483George, is that you?"
35483Got anything on board to eat?"
35483Got anything to eat on board?"
35483Have you ever been there, boys?"
35483Have you seen the mate?"
35483Holding his discovery aloft John quickly turned to Fred and said,"Do you see what I''ve found?"
35483Honest, Grant, who caught that big pickerel?"
35483How about it?"
35483How are you?"
35483How far do we have to go?"
35483How much do we owe you?"
35483I do n''t see it anywhere, do you?"
35483Indeed, after a brief time Fred said,"Is there anything on board we can use to bail this boat?"
35483Is it?"
35483Is that dog creeping any nearer to us?"
35483Is that you, Jack?"
35483Is this the letter?"
35483Is this the mainland?"
35483Is this the_ Gadabout_?"
35483It is n''t more than two or three miles across, is it?"
35483John, did you take anything from the table when you left the house?"
35483Mr. Button glanced keenly at the boy as he spoke and said,"Is the letter intended for me?"
35483Mr. Button laughed again and after a brief silence said,"Why not?
35483Neither of the boys had obtained a clear look at him until Fred suggested,"What''s the use?
35483Now how do you know he kept on talking when you were n''t there?
35483Now what is the best thing for us to do?"
35483Now what shall we do?
35483Picking up the time- piece the woman gazed curiously at it and then again looking sharply at the boys she said,"Where did you get that?"
35483Shall I hail them?"
35483Shall we go ashore, or shall we keep out here on the lake?"
35483Suppose we take this box away with us and then somebody arrests us for stealing?
35483That''s about all, is n''t it, Captain?"
35483That''s you, is n''t it, George?"
35483The man who is making investigations of the island, digging up all sorts of relics?"
35483The question was not answered and John quickly broke in,"When are you going back?
35483Turning once more to the Japanese he continued,"Can you get us some supper?
35483Turning to the clerk John said,"Who is that man?"
35483Turning to the mate, John said,"Do n''t you think it is time for us to find out what has become of the other boys?"
35483Was he tall and ungainly and did he have a voice that no one could ever forget if he once heard it?"
35483Was it possible that he had been mistaken?
35483Was not this the man who had received them in his strange house on Cockburn Island the preceding day?
35483We certainly are having our troubles on this trip, are n''t we?"
35483What I want to know is can you take us in your motor- boat to Mackinac Island?"
35483What are we running for anyway?"
35483What are you looking for?"
35483What did that man say the name of it is?"
35483What did you see there?"
35483What do we do this afternoon?"
35483What do you make of this anyway, Fred?"
35483What do you say?"
35483What do you suppose he''s coming here for?"
35483What do you suppose he''s doing here on this island?"
35483What do you suppose he''s doing here?"
35483What do you suppose it is?"
35483What have you done with the box?"
35483What is it?"
35483What makes you think he wrote those letters?"
35483What makes you think so?"
35483What will you do, come aboard?"
35483What would the police come for?"
35483What''s that yonder?"
35483What''s that you say?"
35483What''s that you say?"
35483What''s to hinder?"
35483Where Mr. Button now?"
35483Where did you come from?"
35483Where do you suppose we are?"
35483Who was their passenger?
35483Why do you want to know who lives there?"
35483Why not?"
35483Why was he so desirous of being carried to Cockburn Island?
35483Why?"
35483Why?"
35483Will you take the watch and let us have some breakfast?"
35483Will you tell us where it is, please?"
35483You do n''t suppose they are ghosts, do you?"
35483You do n''t suppose this fellow is really crazy, do you?
35483You know him, do n''t you?"
35483You know those letters we found, or rather the letter that came to me and the one we picked up on the shore of Western Duck Island, do n''t you?"
27096A blind job, hey? 27096 All set for this new plan then?"
27096And I''m supposed to beat it out of here, hey?
27096And do you know what he was doing there?
27096And the Chink-- what happened to him?
27096And the car-- did you see it again?
27096And what''s that?
27096And you''re kind of hopin''we do, hey Kid? 27096 Any more instructions?"
27096Any of you see a Chink wanderin''around here?
27096Any questions, boys? 27096 Anybody seriously burned?"
27096Anything I ought to know?
27096Anything particular you wanted?
27096Are n''t they out of that furnace yet?
27096Are you all right?
27096Are you just going to ride over to the ranch openly?
27096Are you with me?
27096Aw say, do you know what I think, fellows? 27096 Beat me, hey?
27096Better go back, do you think?
27096Billee, will you do that?
27096Boss leave it here?
27096Bring any grub back with you?
27096Bring them yellow clings?
27096Bud, recognize him?
27096Bud-- is he in there? 27096 Bud?
27096But why did n''t Hawkins arrest him, then?
27096But-- but why did n''t you tell us?
27096Ca n''t the Chinese counterfeit this''chock gee''?
27096Ca n''t they get out? 27096 Can we have until to- morrow to think it over?"
27096Can you find it again?
27096Can you men all hear what I''m saying? 27096 Can you see anything-- any of Delton''s bunch?"
27096Can you sneak around the corner and signal to Bud?
27096Chase an auto on a horse?
27096Cook, hey? 27096 Delton, hey?
27096Dick, I thought you were going to see about eats? 27096 Dick, how about you riding back with me?"
27096Did I understand you to relate that you was goin''to eat some more pie?
27096Did n''t you say you heard someone talk about''even if Jake does n''t know about the Shooting Star''?
27096Did you get lost?
27096Did you? 27096 Did, hey?
27096Do n''t it strike you all kind''a funny that the Mex has got so much stuff on hand?
27096Do n''t you hear something?
27096Do n''t you know it''s rainin''here? 27096 Do n''t you think they figured we followed them, and are all set for us?"
27096Do you tuck her in bed at night, too?
27096Eh? 27096 First, did you work for this guy Delton?"
27096Get here in time?
27096Got any non- exploding sand in this machine, Nort?
27096Got away, did n''t he?
27096Great weather we''re havin'', ai n''t it? 27096 Has n''t, hey?
27096Has that smuggling been going on here-- near the Shooting Star?
27096Have a good trip? 27096 Have you tried eating raw onions?"
27096He did, hey? 27096 He has no right to stay there, has he?"
27096He''s gone, ai n''t he?
27096He''s your brother, is n''t he?
27096Hear it?
27096Heard the news?
27096Help-- men in there----"What is it? 27096 Here-- this do you?"
27096Hey, what the mischief you doin''here? 27096 His brother?
27096How about me? 27096 How about some more pie, Kid?"
27096How about their ponies? 27096 How are you feeling?"
27096How are you, Billee?
27096How did he look, Kid? 27096 How did you happen to come here, Dad?"
27096How do you feel, mister?
27096How do you get that way? 27096 How do you know?"
27096How far do you want to go?
27096How goes it?
27096How in thunderation did you all ever get in there?
27096How''s everything? 27096 How''s it feel to be a hero?"
27096How''s that? 27096 Hurt, Nort?"
27096I ask you once more, do you surrender?
27096I do n''t suppose you could tell us any more about this government business now?
27096I take it you boys are sensible?
27096I wonder if anyone was hurt when this car crashed?
27096If you started from the water hole do you think you could spot it at night?
27096In about two weeks? 27096 In there?"
27096Is n''t Nort out there?
27096Is n''t that where we left Bud, just ahead?
27096Is n''t that wonderful, Kid? 27096 Is that your last word?"
27096Kid?
27096Let''s see now-- have I heard that word before, or did I dream it? 27096 Like a passport, eh?"
27096Little feller, ai n''t he?
27096Lonesome, hey?
27096Lookin''for a''chock gee''was he? 27096 Lookin''for me?"
27096Lost your tongue, Mex?
27096Make it?
27096Me? 27096 Me?
27096Mind if I see it?
27096No but-- what''s that?
27096No more grub? 27096 No trace of anyone around; hey Bud?
27096No-- couldn''t you find him?
27096Nort, come over here a minute, will you? 27096 Not so good, hey?"
27096Now boys-- are you ready? 27096 Old?
27096Pie? 27096 Ready for work?"
27096Recognize him, Dick?
27096Say, Dick, remember the conversation we heard in Dad''s new bunk house? 27096 Say, Kid,"Bud called back, after a while,"what would you do if you saw a smuggler come along now with a herd of Chinks with him?"
27096Say, Mr. Hawkins, what''s the penalty for smuggling in this state?
27096Say, are you thinking the same thing I am?
27096Say, mister, what was that there you said about two thousand dollars?
27096Say, what''s all this about a''chock gee''?
27096Scared, eh? 27096 See what happened?"
27096Seems you want to hear something about my trip, hey? 27096 Shall we tell the others?"
27096Sleep good, boys?
27096Smuggler--''way up here? 27096 So that''s Delton, hey?"
27096So that''s Delton, is it?
27096So that''s what they were doing at the water hole? 27096 So you never really saw Delton?"
27096Some friend of yours? 27096 Take a ride around the place and see if you can locate someone; will you?
27096That will hurry up the deputy''s idea, wo n''t it? 27096 That would afford protection, but once I get in here how can I get out?
27096The Kid show up yet?
27096Then I take it you''ll go?
27096Then we''ll see you to- night?
27096Then when he beat it, you stayed here, hey?
27096Then why do n''t they come out?
27096They were the old- fashioned punchers, were n''t they?
27096Think so? 27096 Think so?
27096Think we all better go over and see him?
27096Think we want you bleedin''all over the landscape? 27096 This is the Shooting Star, is n''t it?"
27096Thought I tied her----"So- o- o you''re the coot that had her, hey? 27096 Thought you were going to bring someone with you?"
27096Thought you were out here to herd sheep?
27096Want another race?
27096Want to speak to me?
27096Was I smilin''? 27096 We''re pretty lucky, eh, Billee?"
27096We''ve been in a few tight squeezes before-- I suppose you heard of Del Pinzo?
27096Well, boys, what do you think about it?
27096Well, how about bunking with us to- night? 27096 Well, sonny, how does it feel to be talked to and not be able to talk back?
27096Well, what do you think of that?
27096Well, what do you think? 27096 Well, when do we start?"
27096Were you with Delton?
27096What about Billee?
27096What about him, Mex? 27096 What about the Mex?"
27096What about the broncs? 27096 What about these others?"
27096What are you doing here?
27096What are you talking about? 27096 What do you mean, get hold of it all right?"
27096What do you mean-- stupid?
27096What do you mean?
27096What do you mean?
27096What do you think about it, Kid? 27096 What do you think of it?"
27096What do you think of our little hide- an''-seek hole, Merkel? 27096 What do you want?"
27096What for?
27096What for?
27096What happened? 27096 What happened?"
27096What happened?
27096What is it-- keeping guard?
27096What is it?
27096What is it?
27096What makes you think someone started it?
27096What makes you think that?
27096What on earth are you doing here, Billee?
27096What time do you calculate we''ll hit the ranch, Kid?
27096What were those cracks we heard?
27096What''ll you have, gents?
27096What''s that?
27096What''s that?
27096What''s the matter with all of us going up there now?
27096What''s the matter, Billee? 27096 What''s the matter, Kid?"
27096What''s the matter? 27096 What''s the matter?"
27096What''s the sense of that?
27096What''s the trouble?
27096What''s the use of scarin''him? 27096 What''s this all about, boys?"
27096What''s your job? 27096 What, then?
27096What-- they did n''t even feed you? 27096 What?"
27096When you were here before, Bud, did they look as though they were getting ready to light out?
27096Where in the name of the spread eagle have you been?
27096Where in thunder is that lamp? 27096 Where you get all this?"
27096Where''s Delton, Mex?
27096Where''s my new bronc?
27096Where''s that Mex?
27096Where''s that Mexican?
27096Who gets the fifteen hundred dollars?
27096Who is he?
27096Who is it?
27096Who said we were goin''to get caught?
27096Who you talking to?
27096Who''s coming? 27096 Who''s this you got, Kid?"
27096Why do n''t you ask him yourself?
27096Why not? 27096 Why that smile, Kid?"
27096Why?
27096Why?
27096Will we really get a reward if we capture these smugglers?
27096Wo n''t someone see you?
27096Wonder how Bud is making out?
27096Wonder if it could have been the Kid?
27096Wonder if there''s anyone around?
27096Wonder what happened to the Chinks?
27096Wonder what he wants?
27096Wonder what time it is?
27096Wonder where on earth I am? 27096 Wonder where the Mex got all this food?"
27096Yea? 27096 Yea?
27096Yes, but do n''t you see they ca n''t get word to the others in time?
27096Yes, but you were n''t supposed to, were you?
27096Yes-- do you know him?
27096You did-- why?
27096You do n''t think I''d tell on you, do ya-- an''get twenty years myself? 27096 You have got the money ready-- yes?"
27096You heard someone talkin''about this here shootin'', Bud?
27096You just get in?
27096You know Jose Salvo?
27096You know what I think would be a good idee?
27096You know when the run is planned for?
27096You mean Pete Alvido? 27096 You mean comin''back here an''not findin''anybody?
27096You mean not letting him know we suspect him?
27096You mean pretty rough, hey?
27096You mean that shirt with the yellow dots on, Kid?
27096You mean they''ll think Delton is still here?
27096You mean to say you''re goin''to walk right up there in broad daylight, after what they did to Billee?
27096You mean trailin''your horse, Kid?
27096You mean you want some of us to watch the place and do a little shootin''so that they wo n''t come out?
27096You mean, where are the Chinks? 27096 You remember that water hole the Kid found the Chinaman at?"
27096You used to work a lot in the summer, did n''t you, Billee?
27096You want Nort an''me to watch the road in the other direction?
27096You what?
27096You with Delton? 27096 You''ll ride with us to the place now, you mean?"
27096You''ll what?
27096All right now?"
27096All set, ponies?
27096All set, you men?"
27096All set?
27096An''you tied her up tight, hey?
27096An''you was comin''to tell us?"
27096And how about that remark of''double crossin''?''
27096And what can I do for you?"
27096And what did they run for?
27096And what good are immigration laws if we ca n''t enforce them?
27096And what''s he doin''at this ranch?"
27096Any more cyclones?"
27096Anybody hurt bad?"
27096Anybody want anything?"
27096Are they in danger?''
27096Are you all right, Kid?"
27096Are you answered?"
27096Are you boys willing to take a chance?"
27096As for smuggling, who said we were smugglers?"
27096Bars, hey?"
27096Better now?"
27096Billee Dobb-- is-- is he dead?"
27096Billee, do you think it''s nice to run me around like that?"
27096Billee, how about it?
27096Billee, you want to come along?
27096Bring in some, will you?
27096Bud, have you a suggestion?
27096Bud, have you and Dick decided what you''re to do?"
27096Bud, you remember that Mexican we saw in the restaurant the first day you hit town?
27096Bud-- how did you get burned?
27096But apart from that, what do you make of this situation, Kid?"
27096But how can I break it without making a racket and bringing Delton and his gang rushing in?"
27096But where is Delton, Mex?
27096By the way-- wonder what happened to our cook?
27096CHAPTER IV THE HIDDEN GUNMAN"Who wants to know?"
27096Ca n''t you hear a noise like a horse walking?"
27096Ca n''t you, baby?
27096Can you get ready to shift by to- morrow morning, do you think?
27096Can you?"
27096Come here, baby-- where you been?
27096Cook?"
27096Could it be that he determined to stick it out until the last moment, and risk a horrible death?
27096Could n''t you see who the two men were?"
27096D.''--the one tendin''the ranch now?"
27096Dick voiced the thought of all as he whispered:"Say, what''s up?
27096Dick, hang on to this pony, will you?
27096Did Delton get hold of him?"
27096Did I understand you to say we''d have a load going back, Bud?"
27096Did n''t Bud say he was one of Delton''s men?"
27096Did n''t see my missin''bronc around, I suppose?"
27096Did this look like a sheep ranch to you?"
27096Did you tell him we was expectin''to find a sheep ranch?"
27096Did your dad hear from him, do you know?"
27096Do n''t want cold sody, do ya?
27096Do n''t you think it''s mighty queer behavior for a tenant of a sheep ranch?
27096Do we go out?
27096Do you surrender?"
27096Do you think Delton might be around back, or somewhere outside?"
27096Eats?"
27096Fear?
27096Feel as though you can control yourself now?
27096Feel better now?
27096Find that bread and meat, Nort?"
27096First of all, could you use one thousand dollars?"
27096First, though, are you sure that you can find that ranch where they held you, Bud?"
27096First, though, is there any chuck left?"
27096Food always do that to you?
27096Gettin''old?"
27096Gone?"
27096Got a blanket?"
27096Got a job and you do n''t know what it is?
27096Got any food inside?
27096Got someone with him; has n''t he?"
27096Got water over there for Billee, Kid?"
27096Has there been much action around your ranch?"
27096Have n''t you got one out here?"
27096Hawkins?"
27096Hawkins?"
27096Hawkins?"
27096Hawkins?"
27096Hawkins?"
27096Hawkins?"
27096Hawkins?"
27096He knows the country about here pretty well, does n''t he, Billee?"
27096He told you he would n''t leave?"
27096He''s in town, is n''t he?"
27096Hear me?
27096Herder?
27096Hey, Mex, what''s your name?
27096Hey, you-- cook for_ hombres_?"
27096Hey, you-- where did you keep her?"
27096Hey?
27096Hey?
27096Hey?"
27096Hey?"
27096His brother, eh?
27096His horse, was it?
27096How about it, Billee?"
27096How about it, Dick and Nort?
27096How about lettin''us in the ranch to get dry?"
27096How are all the babies-- and Aunt Sarah?
27096How are you, son?
27096How did you get over here?"
27096How do you like the feel of that?
27096How does she look, Nort?"
27096How far can she go on a gallon?"
27096How many do you think can ride, Kid?
27096How''s the boy, Nort?
27096Huh?
27096Huh?
27096Hurt yourself?"
27096I do n''t suppose you boys saw anything of him?"
27096I do n''t think your father bought the sheep with this ranch, did he, Bud?"
27096I suppose you boys are lookin''for a job; eh?"
27096I wonder if my belt buckle would do?"
27096I''m going to----""But what can you do?"
27096I''m sure he''ll pull through O. K. Kid, is Bud coming with us?"
27096If I get a crack at Delton----""How''d it happen, Bud?"
27096If you were n''t listenin''what were you doin''?"
27096In another moment----"Hey, you guys, what''s the idea?"
27096In the meantime, where''s that meat and bread you brought, Nort?
27096Is he dead?"
27096Is n''t there something about the room I could use?
27096Is the kitchen all cleaned out?"
27096Is there a water hole near here, Kid, or shall I use my canteen?"
27096It''s all set for to- morrow night, then?"
27096Just because I found that pit by the water hole?
27096K.?"
27096Kid, Nort-- know who that is?"
27096Kid, where''s Billee Dobb resting?"
27096Know what that means on the range?
27096Know where they keep them?"
27096Know where we are?"
27096Listening were n''t you?"
27096Merkel?"
27096Mex, listen here: Did you set that fire?"
27096More pie?
27096No spik?
27096No_ habla_?"
27096Not a thing in-- what was that?
27096Now do you see what I mean?"
27096Now how about tellin''us who you are?"
27096Now is there anything you boys want before we leave?"
27096Now that you''re here, what are you going to do?"
27096Now what, boys?"
27096Now where would a poor Chink get fifteen hundred dollars?
27096Now who''d think of a stunt like that?"
27096Now why did they go to all this trouble?
27096Now, boys, are you all set?"
27096Now, boys,"and he turned to the five standing near him,"what can I do for you?
27096Oh, by the way-- keep an eye on that Mex cook of yours, will you?
27096Oh, say, Dad, do you know Mr. Hawkins?
27096Or is it just a friendly visit?
27096Quick-- do you understand?"
27096Ready?"
27096Reckon you could stand a little sleep, eh?"
27096Remember how he stared at that cyclone coming until he forgot where he was?"
27096Remember, Mr. Hawkins?
27096Rustlers, or disease?"
27096S''pose you- all would like to know what it''s all about, hey?"
27096Savvy?"
27096Say, Billee, you a de- tect- a- tive by any chance?"
27096Say, I thought you fellers were headed for the Shootin''Star?"
27096Say, I wonder who started this thing?"
27096Say, Mr.--what did you say your name was?"
27096Say, by the way, I wonder where that Mex cook of ours went?"
27096Say, is that a new pony you''re ridin'', Kid?"
27096Say, see any Chinks in the car?"
27096Say, where did you say the others were?"
27096Say-- got anything to eat?"
27096Say-- what happened here?
27096See that spot above his eye?
27096Seems to me I remember takin''a subway train at Times Square-- or was that last year?
27096Shannon, is n''t it?
27096So she could n''t get loose?
27096So that''s what Dad meant when he said there might be trouble, eh?
27096So they got him spotted, have they?
27096So you''re the new owners, hey?
27096So you''re the one that lifted the cyclone, hey?
27096So your friend in the house told you he''d give one thousand bucks if you''d let him stay, did he?"
27096Some shootin''been goin''on?"
27096Something like that Mexican cook of yours, hey?"
27096Still asleep?"
27096Suppose the Kid did meet a smuggler-- how''d he know him from any other man?"
27096Suppose we tie them as close to the house as we can without being seen?"
27096Take a run to the kitchen, Dick, and look, will you?"
27096Takes old birds like us to show these youngsters up, eh, Billee?"
27096That right, Mex?"
27096That sort of puts it up to us, do n''t it?"
27096That sure means smuggling, does n''t it?"
27096The Kid had been gone ten minutes when Bud said:"Thought Yellin''Kid said he''d be right back?
27096The Kid will be glad to see him, eh, Kid?"
27096The father''s glance evidently convinced him that Bud was all right, for he turned quickly and said to the others:"Where''s Billee Dobb?
27096The one I told you to watch out for?
27096The one you pointed out; is n''t he?"
27096The store got a buckboard, deputy?"
27096The stranger reined up sharply as he came within talking distance and looked piercingly at the ranchers as he called out:"Anything I can do for you?"
27096Then he says,''you still want go America?''
27096Then in a moment----"Who are you-- John Law?"
27096Then without even a halt for breath he went on:"What do you think of this here team?
27096There, about a mile away, lurching from side to side?
27096Think of anything, Bud?"
27096Think that Mexican cook is on the job?"
27096Think we better leave them?"
27096Think we ought to kick him out?"
27096Think you can take it easy a short spell?"
27096Think you''d recognize the voices if you heard them again?"
27096Thirsty?"
27096Throw your head back at me, will you?
27096Try it-- see that bush up ahead?
27096Understand?"
27096Vaquero?
27096Want me to go over and see how he''s makin''out?"
27096Want to see him?"
27096Want to wait he comes, before going closer?"
27096Was it fair to ask----?
27096Well, boys, it''s time you knew what this smuggling is all about, hey?"
27096Well, now-- what kind is there left?"
27096Well, what''s the dope?
27096Well-- when do we start?"
27096Well----""Got a few suspicions up your own sleeve, eh?"
27096What I''m aimin''to find out is, what''s yours?"
27096What am I supposed to do; stay here?"
27096What are you doin''around here?"
27096What are you goin''to do, Bud, put them woolies to sleep with music?"
27096What chance have they got now?"
27096What did you find out about the sheep- man, Dick?"
27096What did you see, Kid?"
27096What do I do?
27096What do you say, Bud?
27096What do you say, boys?
27096What do you say, boys?
27096What do you say, boys?"
27096What do you say, boys?"
27096What do you think about it all?"
27096What do you think of her?"
27096What do you think of the place, Bud?"
27096What do you think of this idea?"
27096What do you think this is, a circus?
27096What had happened to Delton?
27096What happens to be your special line?"
27096What have you men been feeding Bud-- leather?
27096What is the paper?
27096What of it?
27096What say we get off and walk?
27096What time is it, do you know?"
27096What was his idea in pulling me off like that?
27096What was in their minds as they made ready for that desperate charge?
27096What was the idea of the whole thing, anyhow?
27096What''ll you have-- a song?
27096What''s fifteen hundred in the land of''plenty dollah?''
27096What''s he want to come sneaking around for?
27096What''s that?
27096What''s the idea of that?"
27096What''s the matter, are you tied to the floor?"
27096What''s their name again?
27096What''s your name?"
27096What?
27096When the edge had been taken off his hunger he asked the Kid:"Where''s the rest of the bunch?"
27096When they had satisfied their hunger Bud leaned back in his chair and said:"Well, what''s on the program this morning, Kid?
27096Where can those birds be keeping themselves?
27096Where were the horses?
27096Where were you, Bud?"
27096Where you men bound for-- if you do n''t mind me askin''?"
27096Where you- all countin''on headin''for?"
27096Where''s Billee Dobb?
27096Where''s Bud?"
27096Where''s the boss?
27096Where''s the kitchen?"
27096Where?"
27096Where?"
27096Who''ll do it?"
27096Who, me?
27096Whose mount is missing?"
27096Why did they sneak in a deserted bunk house to talk about a cook?
27096Why does n''t he come out?
27096Why should we surrender?"
27096Why they no come out?"
27096Why you no go with Delton?"
27096Why you run, hey?
27096Why, did something happen to you, too?"
27096Why, even Billee here wants to trail the smugglers-- don''t you, Billee?"
27096Why?
27096Why?"
27096Will that do you?
27096Will you?"
27096Wise sort of a bird; is n''t he?
27096Wonder how in thunder this fire ever got going?"
27096Wonder if we can see anything by lookin''in the window?"
27096Wonder what the idea was?
27096Woolworth tower fall on me?
27096Would he cross safely, or would he be shot down like a dog?
27096You anxious to begin sheep herdin''?"
27096You did n''t know Billee Dobb was a champion racer, did you?"
27096You figgerin''on pluggin''someone, youngster?"
27096You got fifteen hundred dollah?''
27096You got papers, I suppose?"
27096You hurt?"
27096You know him?"
27096You know what happened to that last bird who arranged for me to meet up with the cops?"
27096You know, Bud?"
27096You remember what your Dad said about smugglin'', Bud?"
27096You rent the place, do n''t you?
27096You say you want to ride around a bit, Kid?"
27096You speak to me?"
27096You spent enough time sneakin''up on a whole lot of nothin'', did n''t ye?"
27096You want go America?
27096You want to choke?"
27096You will, will you?
27096You''d forgot all about it, had n''t ye?
27096You- all know what to do?"
27096he whispered, so as not to disturb the others,"do you hear anything?"
26045Adrian, are you a man at all?
26045Adrian,she sobs,"you have forgiven me?
26045Again at your window?
26045Ah, does it rouse so much anger in you even to hear repeated what she did not hesitate to write, did not hesitate to allow me to read? 26045 Aha, what have we here; a couple of drowned rats?
26045Am I mistaken,he said, with some hesitation,"surely this is Hubert Cochrane''s voice?"
26045An expression of regret-- from_ me_?
26045And did the scoundrel say so? 26045 And did you not always look upon my exile as a blessing undisguised, Rupert?"
26045And did you,he asked,"hear its creaking, Renny, as it swayed in the wind?"
26045And if it be Adrian?
26045And is it not too late?
26045And now what will you do with me?
26045And so you would really care to stop here,said he, with a smile of wonder on his face,"if it were not for that reason?"
26045And what''ll be to do now?
26045And why should n''t it be for her happiness?
26045And you have never seen your father since?
26045And you-- what would you do? 26045 Any damage, Curwen?"
26045As her kinsman, have I your approval?
26045At least you will send him a message?
26045Ay, sir; who''s afraid?
26045Boat loaded, Curwen?
26045But what does it mean?
26045But why should she have gone with them?
26045But why, my dear fellow, these further risks and adventures? 26045 But you heard other voices in the next room-- a man''s voice-- whilst you were waiting?"
26045But_ what_ is smuggling?
26045Can you ask, my fair cousin?
26045Casualties?
26045Could n''t I stop with you, sir?
26045Did she love him?
26045Do I not remember? 26045 Do not think me mad, child,"he said at last;"tell me who you are-- what has brought you here?
26045Do you hear me?
26045Do you know what the mission is-- do you know to whom? 26045 Do you know, Curwen,"he said,"that you brought me the wrong young lady last night?"
26045Do you not remember then-- what she has said to you? 26045 Do you not see me overcome with joy?
26045Do you want to be hanged, Johnny Shearman?
26045Do you wonder that I have no tears, cousin?
26045Does Molly know of your visit to me?
26045Does he bite? 26045 Does she expect my visit?"
26045Dost thou think I can not bear ill news-- My husband?
26045Eh bien, René,she said gaily,"or should I call you Monsieur Potter?
26045Emigré, I presume?
26045Emigré? 26045 For God''s sake,"exclaimed Sir Adrian, suddenly losing patience,"what are you driving at, man?
26045For Madeleine?
26045Have you heard anything; has anything happened?
26045Have you made out yet what particular kind of new frenzy it was that seized chère Tante?
26045Have you no word for me?
26045He came, then?
26045Here is Renny; he will carry word that with me you remain to- night.... Come, Renny, do you recognise an old acquaintance?
26045Hoche has forbidden it, has he? 26045 How came it that you never sought to go back to your country?"
26045How dare I what?
26045How did your honour know? 26045 How is that?"
26045How many have we got here?
26045How many were you on board the cutter?
26045How now?
26045How?
26045I ai n''t agoing to seize it off you or take you up, he-- he-- he-- eh, Mr. Landale? 26045 I dared not think of seeing you again,"he murmured, clasping her hands;"yet my return... pleases you?"
26045I leave you resolved to die then?
26045I----? 26045 If I may take the liberty,"said he with subdued voice,"will his honour come and look out, without showing himself?"
26045If he expects you,she asked, fixing cold, curious eyes on her sister''s distress,"and he is in danger, why_ do n''t_ you go?"
26045Is it you, me poor child?
26045Is that a star?
26045Is that not dangerous?
26045It is so, then?
26045Let him speak,she cried,"what matter what he says?
26045Letter or message?
26045Look-- is not this day just like-- one we both remember well...? 26045 Madeleine resembles her father, I am told; but then you never saw the_ feu Comte_, did you?
26045Madeleine,he said, with low rapid utterance;"I am not mistaken, I trust, in thinking you look on me as a good friend?"
26045Madeleine?
26045Madness? 26045 Murderers, who said murderers?
26045My God, Madeleine,cried he, with genuine emotion,"have I deserved this?
26045My God, my God, what have I done?
26045My God, what has happened? 26045 My Lady----?"
26045My dear Miss O''Donoghue,he cried, as I curtsied,"do my senses deceive me, or do I not once more behold_ Murthering Moll_?"
26045My dear aunt,cried Adrian,"nothing has happened, I trust?"
26045My room is ready, I suppose?
26045No,continued Mr. Landale,"I am sure you do n''t, eh?"
26045No? 26045 Nor do you?
26045Not dead, Renny?
26045Nothing more than a friend, sweet?
26045Of whom are you speaking?
26045Oh, Rupert, it was a letter; had I not better destroy it?
26045Oh, Rupert, what shall we do?
26045Oh, what are you made of? 26045 Oh, what does it matter?
26045Pensive, as usual, cousin?
26045Pulwick; you come from Pulwick?
26045Ready to cast?
26045René knew?
26045René, your ladyship-- or Mademoiselle is it?
26045René?
26045Rupert?
26045She is not ill?
26045Silly child,said Madeleine,"and so that is the reason you are glad to remain here?"
26045So brave-- so handsome?
26045So our lovers are to come after us, is_ that_ it? 26045 Still hankering after that beggarly scoundrel?"
26045That was, no doubt,put in Sir Adrian, in his gentle, indulgent way,"what made the Kings''Heads so glorious?"
26045Then you have hope, real hope?
26045There are_ two_ Demoiselles de Savenaye, Jack; which is it?
26045They are very like, are they not?
26045To Adrian?
26045To Madeleine?
26045Unlucky, is it? 26045 Was not she happy enough with you here in this God- forsaken hole, with nothing but the tempest besides for company?
26045Well what happened when he came in and caught you? 26045 Well, Adrian, and what have I done_ now_?"
26045Well, Captain Smith, and about this account? 26045 Well, Madeleine?"
26045Well, Renny,said he,"what is wrong?
26045Well, and how are the little ones?
26045Well, and then?
26045Well, are you glad to see me, Cousin Rupert?
26045Well, but how about me, nurse,observed Molly,"what about_ me_?"
26045Well, no, not exactly, and yet-- unless--? 26045 Well, well,"continued the hermit,"what else?
26045Well-- is that all?
26045Well?
26045Well?
26045What are you going to do?
26045What are you talking about? 26045 What do you think you would find?
26045What do you want with me?
26045What do you want?
26045What does it mean?
26045What does it mean?
26045What else?
26045What fly stings thee now?
26045What hast thou brought? 26045 What is it you accuse him of?"
26045What is it?
26045What is it?
26045What is smuggling? 26045 What is that?"
26045What is the meaning of this, my poor girl?
26045What is to be done?
26045What was it? 26045 What''s the use of_ you_?"
26045When have you seen him last? 26045 When,"she pursued,"in the darkness you took me in your arms and kissed me; what did the touch of my lips bring to you?
26045Where is it?
26045Where was it my mother parted from me?
26045Whither, my fair sister,said he, ranging himself with his best courtesy against the bannisters,"so late in the day?"
26045Who are you, sir, and what do you want?
26045Who is she?
26045Who knows? 26045 Why are you so late?--why have you brought no one with you?
26045Why should I crouch if you stand up?
26045Why this hatred? 26045 Why, you little devil, what is the matter with you?"
26045Why-- is not Adrian coming back to- night?
26045Why-- what? 26045 Why_ demme_"( as Mrs. Hambledon''s nephew says),"_ what the deyvil_ have I got to say?"
26045Will I keep you a little longer?
26045Will not your honour come in? 26045 Will they hang him?"
26045Will you go?
26045Will you not have me?
26045Will you take me back to that strange old place of yours, Adrian, when we are married?
26045Would I not be kind to her?--would I not cherish her?--would I not----? 26045 Would ever any one have guessed anything approaching this?
26045Would you have every one live like a limpet on a rock?
26045Would_ you_ allow your friends to continue fighting alone for all you love, because you happened to be in safe and pleasant circumstances yourself?
26045Yes, why should you think first of strangers,he grumbled,"when you have your own blood, to stand by you-- blood is thicker than water, ai n''t it?
26045You have reason to think that Mr. Landale knew of these men''s errand; other reason, I mean, than having seen them with him just now?
26045You heard them mention my brother''s name?
26045You want me to believe he is mad, I suppose?
26045You would risk your life to save me?
26045You, Curwen? 26045 Your master?"
26045Your sister? 26045 _ Eh bien_, dreamer?"
26045_ Mais, comment donc!_exclaimed the lady,"my dear uncle did you chide your son just now?
26045_ Sacrebleu_,he cried, feeling with quick hands the nature of the obstruction,"more kegs?"
26045_ You_, return to that place now... what good do you think you could do-- eh?
26045''Am I not the most unfortunate...?
26045''Well, and what do you think of him?''
26045''Why, this is René L''Apôtre?
26045''_""Well?"
26045( Indeed where is now the writer who will for a moment admit, even tacitly, that his records are not of reality?)
26045( You remember how dreadful it was?)
26045A lonely widower like myself, why should I?
26045Adrian''s wide acres are succulent, hey?
26045Ah, Lord God, what are we coming to?
26045Ah, ca n''t you let the poor fellow rest in his grave Sophia?
26045Ah, you have heard?
26045Am I to be blamed for judging you by the ordinary standard?
26045Am I too old, or is he too young, to wait on you-- hey, madam?"
26045Among his literary family is there not one nearer his heart than all the rest-- his_ dream- child?
26045And Madam is ill?
26045And if, my fair cousin, it is such that all English gentlemen would help, why then this secrecy?"
26045And really, uncle, you give your own son to my cause?--and you, cousin, you are willing to work for me?
26045And she, where is she?"
26045And so he did not reach in time to meet you?
26045And so this is the latest fashion?
26045And then when, and where, and how?
26045And what sort of a devil is it your generosity has made of_ him_?
26045And yet you love her?
26045And yet...?
26045And, after a pause,"Madeleine does not know the nature of your present pursuit?"
26045And, after another pause, she added, pensively:"But tell me, does Sir Adrian never leave his solitude?
26045Any more letters from the smuggler to- day, eh?
26045Are the souls of the damned patient?
26045Are you deaf, stupid, as well as heartless?
26045Are you mad?''
26045Are you quite sure, sir?"
26045Aye, have we not a proverb about it: as well be hanged for a sheep as for a lamb?...
26045Bad news-- bad news?
26045But after a second, controlling herself:"And what should that be now, sister, to you or to me?"
26045But how?
26045But is_ this_ the sort of thing that will be of interest to read hereafter?
26045But let me be frank, or else what is the use of this diary?
26045But there is no saying, your honour eats more when I have brought him back onions, eschalot, and_ ail_; now do I lie, your honour?
26045But we''ve run many a risk together in our day, have we not?"
26045But what I wants to know is: Why, if you knew all about the fellow''s little games, you sent us to spy on him?
26045But what can they know of life at a convent?
26045But what does your smuggler do, miss-- your rollicking, dare- devil chap of a smuggler?
26045But what if dreams of a return to the life of the world should arise after to- day in the recluse''s mind?
26045But what of the writer?
26045But where was the use of either argument or expostulation with one so incapable of even understanding the mainsprings of his actions?
26045But will not my knight continue to fight for my bidding, even without hope of such?"
26045But with you?
26045But you will surely think of asking a few likely young fellows over to the house, occasionally?
26045But you_ would_ have all the credit, and where are you?
26045But, what if Mr. Landale were right?
26045But, who had come for the children, and where had they been taken?
26045By the way, will you embark a few bags with me?
26045CHAPTER V THE AWAKENING Oh, what hadst thou to do with cruel Death, Who wast so full of life, or Death with thee?
26045CHAPTER XX TWO MONTHS LATER: THE QUICK AND THE DEAD Neighbour, what doth thy husband when he cometh home from work?
26045Can you trust your men?"
26045Can you wonder, Adrian, that my brain was reeling?
26045Could anything be more suitable, more fortunate?
26045Could ever two birds be killed with one stone with more complete felicity than in this settling of the two people she most loved upon earth?
26045Could justice ever have served up a spicier dish whereon to regale the multitude?
26045Could n''t you even shoot straight?
26045Crackenshaw?"
26045Dear me-- you do n''t mean to say, Madeleine, that you are corresponding with that person; that he is near us?
26045Did he think( as indeed has happened) that the Light- keeper would take too kindly to the Savenaye children?
26045Did they like no little fresh soles this morning?
26045Did you say you were a Landale of Pulwick?
26045Do I not deserve my fate, if the Bible law be right?
26045Do n''t they know who murdered him?
26045Do n''t you understand?
26045Do n''t you understand?"
26045Do n''t you, sir, do n''t you?
26045Do you know that if my husband were here to notice them you might be taken to task?"
26045Do you mean to remain?"
26045Do you think your brother mad, child?"
26045Do you want to be hanged?"
26045Does he gibber?
26045Does it make you suffer much?
26045Far more trouble than pleasure when you have it, and yet a dreadful nuisance when you have not-- But what''s this I hear about Adrian?
26045For you will keep us a little longer?"
26045Good- night, Captain Smith, I shall see you to- morrow?"
26045Guilty?
26045Had he not been so five days ago?
26045Had the merciless waters of the earth that had murdered the mother, grasped at the child''s life also?
26045Had the sea given up its dead?
26045Had you no thought for your woman''s good name?
26045Hallo, what is the damned_ crapaud_ up to?"
26045Has she not brought my love under your protection?
26045Have I the choice already between two such cavaliers?
26045Have they not welcomed a child of Cécile de Savenaye at Pulwick?...
26045Have you never heard of his admiration for Moggie Mearson, our maid?
26045He does not know?"
26045He saw the emptying seats, the shipped oars, the name_ Peregrine_ in black letters upon the white paint of the dingey; and she?...
26045He spoke so nobly, Rupert, and said: What better place could they have for their meetings than one consecrated to such faithful love as this?
26045How could I have been so stupid?
26045How could I have thought_ that_ baggage like my princess?
26045How could it be that he loved her?
26045How could it have come so soon to your honour''s ears?
26045How dare you have a lover, and not tell me all about him?
26045How did it go?"
26045How did you behave to the poor innocent from the very instant she crossed your threshold?
26045How did you come?
26045How do you do, my cousin?"
26045How is it that our organ- songs at the convent_ never_ moved me in this fashion?
26045How is it we never know such delight in waking hours?
26045How is the arm?
26045How often does he come here?
26045How often these last days, and how earnestly have I not begged of you to return to Pulwick?
26045How the devil came you here then, and thus?"
26045How you stare-- oh you remember now do you?
26045I am not conceited, I hope, but what, pray, will become of your honour here without me?"
26045I called out,''Stretchers, lads; they want to take your captain?''
26045I hope this is not to be a mere flying visit?
26045I know you hate company yourself, and all the rest of it; but how can these things here affect you upon your island?
26045I seized him by the hand--"Are you ill, Adrian?"
26045I should n''t have moved with two men in a boat patrol, d''ye think?
26045I thought that flattering: I am a Briton, of Brittany, you know, myself, uncle: would you have_ me_ be a worthless Briton?
26045I tried to take up my life there, but----""But you have come back-- for me?"
26045I warrant you have never told her the story for fear she would want to copy her mother in other ways besides looks-- Hey?
26045I wonder who to?
26045If I love you?
26045If so, how would this proud rebellious nature bear another failure?
26045If we were lonely before, my faith, now we are desolate?"
26045Imbecile that I am, his honour-- where is he?
26045In fact, were he to come across the children of his dead love-- above all Molly, who must be startlingly like her mother-- what might the result be?
26045In five minutes you will be with him?
26045Into what strange world had she come this night?
26045Is he not with you?
26045Is it guineas that nipping young man is a taking over seas, if I may make so bold?
26045Is it hang him they will, and he so beautiful and brave?
26045Is it my fault that you are not as other men?
26045Is it not a shame that there should be such a thing as death?"
26045Is it water that runs in your veins?
26045Is it yet too late?"
26045Is not that a feather in my cap?)
26045Is that some of the joy we are to feel in Heaven, the music we are to hear?
26045Is there any sin of human frailty that a human being dare condemn?
26045Is this life, I am so eager for, but horror and misery after all?
26045Is this the way to treat these pretty things?"
26045It is a record with a vengeance, is it not?
26045It is almost four years since I was here last, is it not?"
26045It is good, in verity, to have My Lady back, but, Mr. the Captain, is it well for_ him_ to be here?
26045It seems then, that you expected Mademoiselle, my sister, here for some purpose and that you regret she did not come; may I ask for an explanation?"
26045Landale?"
26045Let me see your face-- are you faint?
26045Looking back to those delightful three days, did not the_ thought_ come to me, if not the words?
26045May I?"
26045Molly stood, her black brows drawn, gazing down upon her in silence.--Did she love him after all?
26045Molly thought that the girl eyed her hesitatingly, as if she wished to speak:"Well, Moggie?"
26045Molly!--What is the meaning of this?
26045Mrs. Potter, your careful husband could not leave the island?"
26045My God, were there then two Céciles?
26045My safety?
26045My task lies to my hand; the sacred legacy of my dead I have accepted; is there any of you here who will help the widow to maintain the fight?"
26045No congratulations from the model brother?
26045No doubt the fruits of peace?"
26045No?
26045Not even a word of thanks to Molly de Savenaye for bringing the truant to his home at last?
26045Not indeed in his accusation of Mr. the Captain, René knew, René had seen enough to trust him: he was no false friend; but as regarded My Lady?
26045Nothing about your wife--?"
26045Now listen to me,"sitting down beside her, and speaking slowly and impressively,"you are to make our relatives feel welcome, do you understand?
26045Now what good fare have you got for me to- day?"
26045Now what prospect before her hungry heart but-- starvation?
26045Now, what sort of game is she making of you?
26045Now, where does the difference come in?
26045Now,_ why_ did not Mr. Landale wish his brother to know?
26045Oh, a poor fisherman, what was it to him?
26045Oh, give me your hand, friend, can I think of anything now but your peril and your truth to me?"
26045Old men and young they leapt up, with a roar; pressing round her, pouring forth acclamations, asseverations and oaths-- Would they help her?
26045On the wings of the storm and the wind had she come to him, his love-- across the awful barriers that divide life and death?
26045Or if he had been a dirty, untidy hermit, as Madeleine thought?
26045Or to one of them?
26045Or, yet, had she come to call him from the weary world that their souls might meet and be one at last?...
26045Ought n''t you to be ashamed to be so hard- hearted?"
26045Renny,"sinking his voice and clasping the man''s sturdy arm with clammy hand,"is it true they have placed him on the sands to- day?"
26045Rupert, my good soul, can you ascribe any reason for this terrible state of affairs... that blow on the head?"
26045Say the word, madam, am I to make the signal?
26045Shall I signal?"
26045She bent her ear-- was there nothing to hear yet, nothing but the lap of the restless waters?
26045She, yielding her cheek carelessly to the Squire''s hearty kiss, examined the new- comer curiously the while:"Why-- how now, tut, tut, what''s this?"
26045Should he tell them now?
26045Sits the wind still in that quarter?
26045Smuggler-- pirate?
26045So you are going to take my gig?
26045So you have met her?"
26045So you see I owe poor Lady Maria a good thought.... You laugh?"
26045So, it''s you again, Johnny, my lad; the pretty Mercury.... Can it be possible that Captain Smith is at his old games once more?"
26045So, that is what five and twenty years have done for you-- what would you say to what they have done for me...?"
26045Some said Jack spitted himself on his sword-- but dead he was anyhow, and monsieur your father-- what was his name?
26045Sophia, this is a terrible thing your brother wants me to believe-- may I ask what_ your_ opinion is?
26045Sophia, what would your feelings be then?"
26045Surely, even at your showing you have enough of this world''s goods; why not come forward, now, at once, openly?
26045The answer came with the promptitude of a return shot:"Do?
26045The doctor considers her quite convalescent?
26045The light of Scarthey?"
26045The old man caught up the unsatisfactory reply in an exasperated burlesque of mimicry:"I can not say, sir-- you can not say?
26045The shouts around us died away, there were cries upon him for"Speech-- speech,"then playful queries--"How is this, Sir Adrian?
26045Then Tanty caught me by the arm and shook me:"How_ dare_ you, miss, how dare you?"
26045Then abruptly asked:"Have you ever heard of guinea smuggling?"
26045Then she asked, hoarsely:"Where have they taken him to?"
26045Then there is Rupert paying now open court to this sly damsel-- for the sake of her beautiful eyes, or for the beautiful eyes of her casket?
26045Then thoughtfully:"And now you will be wanting to return home?"
26045Then with sudden deadly composure:"So_ this_ is the reparation you propose to make for the mischief you have wrought?"
26045Then, catching fear from his servant''s distraught countenance:"My wife,"he exclaimed, bounding up; and added,"you left her, Renny?"
26045Therefore he can not be cheating the King, if that is smuggling-- Oh Rupert, is there not some grievous mistake?"
26045This is a handy sort of an old Robinson Crusoe place for hiding and storing, is it not?"
26045This is all that marriage has brought me; and what has it not taken from me?
26045To leave you alone, deserted, helpless at St. Malo, you could not have thought I should mean that?
26045To their motherland, perhaps; even it might have been before he himself had left it; or yet to Ireland, where still dwelt kinsfolk of their blood?
26045Traitors?
26045Wannut you go in, sir?"
26045Was it really I that endured such a life for seventeen years?
26045Was no one true then?
26045Was not the situation you placed me in with regard to Adrian already odious enough that it needed this added folly?
26045Was she to leave him so, without even one kind word?
26045Was there happiness indeed yet in store in the future?
26045Was this to be the end?
26045We have lowered the blue, white and red too often, have not we?
26045We shall be firm to the last, shall we not, cousin?"
26045Well, shall we return home now?
26045Well,"she continued, looking round over her shoulder,"why do n''t you say something, you lackadaisical thing?"
26045Were they watching the island?
26045Were those men false?
26045Were you not happy then?
26045Were, then, these twenty years all an evil, fevered dream, and was he awake at length?
26045What ailed the fellow, when every second was crucial, life or death bringing?
26045What ails you then?"
26045What am I to him?"
26045What are we waiting for, may I ask?"
26045What are you mumbling about to yourself?
26045What are you sighing for?
26045What are your plans?"
26045What can this man of his have to say to me?"
26045What could she say, and how excuse herself?
26045What could_ he_ do for her, now that she required his helping hand no more?
26045What did he know?
26045What did he mean?
26045What do you want?"
26045What does anything matter if we are only together?
26045What does anything matter now?
26045What else has marriage brought her?
26045What had happened?
26045What has he done to offend you?
26045What have I to do with you, Adrian''s wife?
26045What in the name of goodness can a man smuggle_ out_ of England but gold?
26045What is coming to me?
26045What is it that creaks so?
26045What is it you want to know?"
26045What is it, why do n''t you tell me?"
26045What is it?"
26045What is that?
26045What is the meaning of this?
26045What is your guilt compared to mine for bringing you to this, allying my melancholy age with your bright youth?"
26045What manner of man was this, that not love, nor jealousy, nor anger had power to stir?
26045What meant this change?
26045What need for words between them, then?
26045What next?
26045What should I care if you were an adventurer, a smuggler, a traitor?
26045What should we do without tea in this weary world?
26045What sort of man then is it I would allow to love me?
26045What though her heart failed her at the eleventh hour?--God forgive her for it!--surely she never sanctioned this masquerade?...
26045What was he spying after me for, like that?
26045What was that infernal little French husband of hers hatching now?
26045What was this strange feeling of oppression, of terror?
26045What were you talking about in the picture gallery for an hour before dinner, eh?"
26045What will they do to him?"
26045What would Tanty say?"
26045What would she do?
26045What would you say if I were to issue invitations for a ball?
26045What''s this?
26045What, then, has marriage brought me?
26045What, you never knew it?
26045What-- despair now?
26045What?
26045When ought one to start such a record?
26045When was ever any one made to suffer as he has been, in only forty years of life?
26045Whence had come to her this strange power of feeling pain?
26045Where was she, when he began that seemingly endless cruise with the frigate_ Porcupine_?
26045Who are you?"
26045Who can fathom the mystery of another''s heart?
26045Who shall say that your skipper is not still Lucky Smith?
26045Who told you I wonder?--of course, such a couple as we are, Adrian and I, could not be divided from each other for over half a day, could we?
26045Who would have thought of seeing you here, René L''Apôtre?''
26045Whom have you but a mad- cap sister, a poor dreamer of a brother- in- law, an octogenarian aunt, to look to?
26045Why did God place such creatures on His earth to take all savour from aught else under the sun?
26045Why did you not speak?
26045Why do n''t you answer me, Sophia?"
26045Why do n''t you fire now, you lubbers?"
26045Why had he never thought of the children these weary years?
26045Why is he so anxious that Sir Adrian should not know that Aunt Rose has brought us here?
26045Why should not she be happy, then, when you come back to your own good place?
26045Why was her hair cut short?
26045Why was she in this sordid little room?
26045Why weep?
26045Why, I myself fell into the same mistake, and we had not much time for finding it out, had we?
26045Why, cousin Landale, you that knew Cécile de Savenaye so well have you forgotten two babes that were born at your own house of Pulwick?
26045Why, in the name of conscience, should not you marry?
26045Why, then what the devil have you been driving at?"
26045Why, why, Adrian, old friend?"
26045Why?
26045Why?
26045Will you engage to restore it to its owners, in all privacy?
26045Will you go now, my child, and fetch me the letters I left on the drawing- room table?
26045Will you trust me, Madeleine, will you come with me?
26045Will you trust me?
26045Would it be better to leave the book unopened?
26045Would not you be_ kind_ to her?--would not you cherish her if she were your wife?"
26045Would she forgive him, would she go with him?
26045Would you make the breach between me and my friend irreparable?"
26045Would you?"
26045You are not faint?"
26045You ca n''t leave the little ones, your husband does not ask you to come back and leave them, does he?
26045You did not find them, did you?"
26045You did not look for this, sir?"
26045You fear for me?
26045You have bitter truths to learn; would it not be better to wait and learn them quietly without further scandal?"
26045You have done a bad day''s work there all these years, but, please God, there are better times dawning for us all.--What are you doing, Adrian?
26045You shall soon know all; will you trust me?"
26045You will not be frightened, will you, my beautiful love?
26045You will suffer from this-- what shall we do to comfort you?
26045You would like to go to Madeleine, would not you?"
26045Your light will burn all safe for the time, will it not?
26045_ Ces gredins!_ and will they hang so good a gentleman?"
26045_ Jack_,"calling in his ear,"do n''t you see?
26045_ Monsieur le Maire_ and the rest, appointed by the King, they were in a great fright, they had to give way-- what does Madame say?
26045and had he not actually laughed?
26045and_ where''s_ my share?
26045cried Sophia,"Rupert, do not tell me, lest I swoon away, that he is married already?"
26045cried he, goaded at length into some sort of despairing anger himself,"what would you have me do?"
26045did ye ever hear such a thing?
26045does it not strike you as savouring a little of the unamiable dog in the fable?
26045echoed Lady Landale with her eyes still fixed upon his downcast face--"If I like-- what?"
26045exclaimed the man with a paling face,"what are you saying?"
26045if_ this_ had been his purpose, what motive was prompting him when he divided her from her deceiving lover?
26045not know how one dances the gavotte?
26045or have we trapped you at last, the ci- devant Savenaye and her_ godam_ from England?
26045she cried,"Is it you?"
26045she echoed, with an angry cry; and then wheeling round upon him fiercely:"Do you want to kill me?"
26045she is one of those that will not weep for Jack Smith, eh, Adrian?
26045she said in a dry whisper,"is he at Pulwick?"
26045she says angrily; and adds, more gently, yet with some contempt:"_ Enfant, va!_--is this the time for such follies?"
26045tell me, did she love you?"
26045that you and he did come upon this Captain Smith, red- handed as you call it, loading or unloading his vessel on Scarthey Island?"
26045what boat is that?"
26045what can be done?
26045what is there to be so astonished at?
26045what she wrote to you in cold blood-- the coward-- in the very moment when you were staking your life for love of her?
26045who am I that I should judge you?
26045why-- where have you been then since you ran away from the dining- room?
5248''Hello, Betsy,''I yelled,''where did you get that little squealer from?'' 5248 A Government officer?"
5248A condition? 5248 A good one?"
5248A message?
5248A pleasure yacht?
5248A stranger?
5248A trip?
5248A what?
5248A what?
5248About how many men have been missing at different time?
5248About the box?
5248Against whom?
5248Ah, you are thirsty, are you?
5248Ah, you knew it?
5248Ah, you know her?
5248Aha, I''m glad to hear it; you''ve struck a trail, eh?
5248All right, then you are to give me your aid?
5248Am I to speak more plainly to you, or can you not discern?
5248Am I?
5248Am I?
5248And I am only to locate the place?
5248And I can escape by joining your crew?
5248And I was correct?
5248And Renie is about eighteen years old?
5248And Sol Burton was the man who told them I gave the detective warning?
5248And Vance was one of them?
5248And can not find her?
5248And did he bring her the child?
5248And have a fair show?
5248And how long ago did this occur?
5248And invite your doom?
5248And never came across the slightest clew?
5248And never found it or gained any clew as to its whereabouts?
5248And now you come and warn me?
5248And now, what''s your play?
5248And she died without making the revelation?
5248And that is why you first deceived me as to her appearance?
5248And the girl?
5248And the murderer has been discovered?
5248And then?
5248And then?
5248And this man comes to- night?
5248And we missed you?
5248And what did my father say to his propositions?
5248And what did you tell the detective?
5248And what do you fear?
5248And what do you propose to do?
5248And what has been your purpose?
5248And what will they do?
5248And when her identity is established?
5248And yet, what?
5248And you announce your perfidy?
5248And you are a Government officer?
5248And you dare tell me that you are a beautiful cheat?
5248And you demand to know who I am?
5248And you deny that I am her father?
5248And you desire my co- operation in, discovering the whereabouts of the girl?
5248And you do not love me?
5248And you hate me?
5248And you have been deceiving me?
5248And you have been deceiving me?
5248And you have never mentioned it to her?
5248And you have not been detected?
5248And you have not spoken to anyone over here?
5248And you have the master of the''Nancy''up in Ludlow Street?
5248And you informed the men who I was?
5248And you sail to- day?
5248And you turned against your father and us all?
5248And you want me to bring her here?
5248And you were n''t picked up?
5248And you will give me twenty- five dollars?
5248And you will know where to look for her?
5248And you will not go off in the yacht to- night?
5248And you will pay me fifty dollars to point him out to you?
5248And you will remain?
5248And you will repeat them to me?
5248And you wo n''t tell me your name?
5248And your father''s name?
5248Answer me, are you really the girl''s father?
5248Are you Spencer Vance?
5248Are you acquainted around here?
5248Are you acquainted with my daughter?
5248Are you an honest man?
5248Are you engaged in the business?
5248Are you madly seeking death?
5248Are you man or devil?
5248Are you married?
5248Are you prepared to take advantage of my information?
5248Are you ready?
5248Are you really Vance, or have I run against some other Government dandy?
5248Are you really Vance?
5248Are you seeking death?
5248Are you sure this is not the man who assaulted you?
5248Are you sure you have your senses now?
5248Are you the child of a wreck?
5248Are you willing to serve me?
5248Are you willing to take the responsibility?
5248Are you, my friend, Renie?
5248Around in the cove?
5248As I do n''t know you, do you know me?
5248But are you an enemy to Garcia?
5248But did she not act like a woman who possessed: a secret?
5248But did you not imperil your life in my behalf?
5248But he was speaking of the Government detective?
5248But my father?
5248But you will not go off in the yacht?
5248By bringing the girl to you?
5248By whom?
5248Ca n''t you guess?
5248Can I be present during your interview with the girl?
5248Can I claim to be a friend of yours?
5248Can I not persuade you to go with me?
5248Can I see you alone?
5248Can I trust you?
5248Can you call again?
5248Can you do that?
5248Can you find her-- do you know where to look for her?
5248Can you get us across?
5248Can you row?
5248Come along with us and we may find our man; you can identify him?
5248Come and have a beer?
5248Come what over you?
5248Dare you remain?
5248Did he tell you so?
5248Did n''t you recognize him?
5248Did she keep her promise to you?
5248Did she visit her son''s grave often?
5248Did the man ever come again?
5248Did they drop anything?
5248Did you ever belong to one of the gangs?
5248Did you ever notice that her mind took any particular line of thought after these visits?
5248Did you ever search over her papers?
5248Did you expect him?
5248Did you expect to see Vance here when you looked us over?
5248Did you know this body was here when you left me a few moments ago?
5248Did you never tell your suspicion?
5248Did you not save my life?
5248Did you see him aboard?
5248Did you tell them directly?
5248Did you? 5248 Did you?"
5248Do any of you know this fellow?
5248Do n''t the people over on the mainland know of her business?
5248Do n''t you fellows get a chance for pickings?
5248Do n''t you perceive?
5248Do the men on the yacht know who I am?
5248Do they know that you overheard them?
5248Do you desire to see me?
5248Do you expect Vance down here?
5248Do you go clean through to the city?
5248Do you go there often?
5248Do you hear that, stranger?
5248Do you know Denman?
5248Do you know a family by the name of Manuels?
5248Do you know a fisherman around here by the name of Pearce?
5248Do you know the girl?
5248Do you know the right man?
5248Do you know who gave the information?
5248Do you know your peril?
5248Do you mean Spencer Vance?
5248Do you mean to say Renie receives money?
5248Do you really intend to take me to Ludlow Street?
5248Do you remember pointing out the man who assailed you?
5248Do you suppose your wife ever opened it?
5248Do you suspect Garcia''s purpose?
5248Do you suspect anyone?
5248Do you suspect the assassin?
5248Do you suspect the motive for the abduction?
5248Do you think he will dare return?
5248Do you think so?
5248Do you think so?
5248Do you think so?
5248Do you think so?
5248Do you want an introduction?
5248Do you want to make a few dollars?
5248Do you wish to find a hiding place?
5248Do you wish to see him or his daughter?
5248Does Renie know her letter was intercepted?
5248Does she know the tale?
5248Does she usually go away the day following her night- visit to the coast?
5248Does the man confess his guilt?
5248Eh, old man, what''s that your hiding?
5248Eh? 5248 First tell me; do you believe evil has befallen the girl?"
5248For how much?
5248For what purpose?
5248For what?
5248For what?
5248For whom?
5248From the description you are satisfied that the adopted daughter of Tom Pearce is the girl you are looking for, my friend?
5248From which quarter does the danger threaten me?
5248Give you my aid?
5248Has Renie any knowledge of the box?
5248Has he a daughter?
5248Has he been making love to the girl?
5248Has he confessed to you that he is not your father?
5248Has he dared to kill anybody?
5248Has he expressed any determination as to his course?
5248Has my daughter got such a box?
5248Has she ever asked you whether or not she is your child?
5248Has the girl ever spoken of it?
5248Has there been a wreck?
5248Have I been fooled, after all?
5248Have they a suspicion?
5248Have we far to go?
5248Have you a place for her?
5248Have you any friends around here?
5248Have you any friends here?
5248Have you any messages to leave?
5248Have you any suspicion as to the identity of the abductor?
5248Have you considered well?
5248Have you done so?
5248Have you ever met the man?
5248Have you ever searched for the box?
5248Have you searched for her?
5248Have you seen him lately?
5248Have you seen his credentials?
5248Have you spoken to anyone besides me?
5248He lay in wait for me this morning, and when he got an opportunity he asked:''Renie, who is that man the boys were going to hang last night?''
5248He really knows the old boatman is dead?
5248He spoke about me?
5248Hello, King,called Vance,"have n''t you gone back yet?"
5248Hello, Tommy, where did you come from?
5248Her friend only?
5248Honest people?
5248How about bail?
5248How about this Government officer who has been prowling around here?
5248How against you?
5248How am I all right?
5248How big?
5248How came you to place her in the hands of old Tom Pearce?
5248How can I help you?
5248How can I?
5248How can I?
5248How can you know what she would look like now?
5248How comes it that you are any friend? 5248 How depend upon me?"
5248How did he get that information?
5248How did you find out that I was a Government officer?
5248How did you find out that the men intended to go for me to- night?
5248How did you get ashore?
5248How did you know Garcia was coming here?
5248How did you snake us out down at the island?
5248How do I know you are not one of his agents?
5248How do they know he is here?
5248How do you know Garcia assailed me?
5248How do you know I''m in the Government employ?
5248How do you know he has not been here?
5248How do you know which is the man?
5248How do you know who assailed me?
5248How do you know?
5248How do you know?
5248How do you know?
5248How do you know?
5248How do you mean to manage it?
5248How do you mean?
5248How do you run it ashore?
5248How does he take the thing?
5248How is it you chanced to run her down to her real business, and get all the points so dead on the crew?
5248How is it you have let her remain here so many years?
5248How is it you have never communicated with the Government?
5248How loaded?
5248How long a time since you saw the girl?
5248How long has she been engaged in this traffic?
5248How long has your wife been dead?
5248How shall I do that?
5248How smuggle her?
5248How so?
5248How so?
5248How so?
5248How so?
5248How so?
5248How so?
5248How warn him?
5248How was it he came to assail you, father?
5248How was it the boys chanced to''drop''to him?
5248How was it you were suspected of having assailed me?
5248How well?
5248How will you manage it, Denman?
5248How''s that, sir?
5248How, else would Vance find out about the death of old Tom Pearce?
5248How?
5248How?
5248How?
5248How?
5248How?
5248How?
5248How?
5248I am not going out on the island to- night?
5248I am to be paid if I point out the rendezvous?
5248I can depend upon you?
5248I can?
5248I have a good memory; but, first, tell me what was the purport of the conversation between my father and the man Garcia?
5248I have no confidant in the world; shall I make one of you?
5248I have your word, captain?
5248I must bind myself by oaths?
5248I see his crew is made up of all nationalities?
5248I shipped you last night?
5248I should say so; and now as I''ve answered your questions, who are you?
5248I suppose you think I ought to be floating on the sea?
5248I thought you did not intend to go until the season was more advanced?
5248I will wait here?
5248I wonder if there are two of''em on the island?
5248I wonder,he muttered,"if they have came to look for me here?
5248I''ll tell you all about it some day, Denman, but, in the meantime, do you mean fight, or does your flag come down?
5248I''ll think it over; but see here, why is it you are so anxious to get possession of the girl?
5248I''m only telling yer the truth; yer a chicken- hearted lot, and losing all yer game; for what? 5248 I''ve been sold once, and this time I''m going to work my racket differently; do you know Vance by, sight?"
5248If there is, what difference does it make to you?
5248If you are my friend, why did you betray me to the smugglers?
5248If you leave me, how am I to get over to the mainland?
5248In my presence?
5248Inclined to talk?
5248Is a flounder a pretty fish?
5248Is he a smuggler?
5248Is he in?
5248Is he not your father?
5248Is it Tom Pearce you want to see?
5248Is it? 5248 Is she a good girl?"
5248Is that all?
5248Is that fellow one, then?
5248Is that my name?
5248Is that so?
5248Is that what that fellow told you?
5248Is the man your friend?
5248Is the old boatman a friend of yours?
5248Is there a war round here, that you send out sentinels to stop quiet people?
5248Is there no chance for a deal?
5248Is there such a man here?
5248Is your word passed to me?
5248It is no time for explanations now; tell me, is your father dead?
5248It is over a week since you saw Renie?
5248It makes no difference now; but tell me are you Renie Pearce?
5248It''s all right to say he must; but who''ll make old Tom Pearce do a thing when he''s made up his mind that he wo n''t?
5248It''s easy to say we can get the goods away, but where will we take them?
5248Leading me on?
5248Leave the coast?
5248Must I wait for my money until you get your rake?
5248My fault?
5248Never mind about the risk; how is your father?
5248No, not exactly; this shanty was built for common use; but where did you come from?
5248No; but will you tell me how long you have been on the coast?
5248Nor hinted?
5248Not even one word?
5248Not since she was a year old?
5248Now what have you got to say?
5248Now you admit she is beautiful?
5248Oh, it''s all right, eh? 5248 Oh, that''s it, eh?"
5248Oh, why do you take such risks?
5248Oh, you''re the doctor?
5248On what pretense did he make offers to you, my child?
5248On your way to the city?
5248Once for all, are you telling me the truth now?
5248One moment; do you know anything concerning this tragedy?
5248Only two minutes?
5248Or what?
5248Over there?
5248Perceive what?
5248Renie did the business?
5248Renie, you must tell me who told you our plans?
5248Renie,said Denman,"have n''t we always treated you well?"
5248Row much?
5248See here, Garcia, do you mean that girl harm?
5248See here, you''re the man who struck me?
5248Shall I say it?
5248Shall I speak plainly?
5248Shall I?
5248She believes herself your child?
5248She does?
5248She is a handsome girl, I suppose?
5248She is not a pretty girl?
5248She may look for justice at the hands of her father?
5248She meant when claimed by her friends?
5248She never told you of the circumstances under which you were confided to her care?
5248So you are the traitor?
5248So you live on the island?
5248So you think I''m a Yorker?
5248Sol Burton?
5248Someone must have told you our plans?
5248Speedily; but tell me, what has become of her?
5248Spencer Vance and you were''laying in''together?
5248Suppose my suspicion is correct, and those men are leading you on?
5248Suppose the stranger is not discovered, my good friend?
5248Suppose we arouse the girl?
5248Suspicions concerning me?
5248Taylor, did you run across a gang of smugglers in your experience along the coast?
5248That is all right; and now tell me, do you know any of the principals?
5248That''s neither here nor there; do you want to make a few dollars?
5248That''s the reason you want him?
5248That''s your decision?
5248The boat- keeper?
5248The captain of the Nancy?
5248The girl laughed and said:It is easy enough to say''that is all right,''but where shall I go?"
5248The man I''m looking for?
5248The man is a friend of yours?
5248The man was studying the faces of the people hereabouts?
5248The man who assailed me?
5248The time has come for you to unmask?
5248Then how do you know he is not your father?
5248Then how is it you take such an interest in me?
5248Then how will you have a chance to catch him?
5248Then this is a surprise to you?
5248Then when they discover that I am up to their plans, will they not accuse you of having betrayed them?
5248Then why did you accuse this man?
5248Then why do you now refuse to go?
5248Then why do you say she suspects that she is not your child?
5248Then you came here did you expect to find the old man alive?
5248Then you do not care to see his daughter?
5248Then you have seen the girl?
5248Then, why have you turned against us?
5248There were?
5248They expect the detective down there to- night?
5248They''ve tumbled, eh?
5248This is your demand?

5248Yer did, eh?
5248Yes, yes; but suppose he should come?
5248Yes; why not?
5248You admit you betrayed me?
5248You and I have met before?
5248You are Ballard?
5248You are a revenue officer?
5248You are acquainted with most of the men in the Government service?
5248You are determined to go off on the yacht?
5248You are determined to go?
5248You are determined?
5248You are not?
5248You are one of the crew of the''Nancy''?
5248You are rich?
5248You are satisfied he''s all right?
5248You are sure there has been no acquaintance between the detective and your daughter?
5248You are sure?
5248You are the man who laid out some of the crew?
5248You are?
5248You asked me what my name was on the train?
5248You call me a fool?
5248You came here to see a woman named Betsy Pearce?
5248You came here to warn me against Garcia?
5248You can do that?
5248You can not go with me?
5248You can remain with me?
5248You can trust the girl with me; but where is she, to- night?
5248You caught her in a trap?
5248You collared the whole business?
5248You demand that I shall leave you?
5248You did not go in the yacht?
5248You did?
5248You do n''t live on the island?
5248You do n''t think any of the gang had anything to do with bringing harm to the old man?
5248You do n''t think,said one of them,"that the gal is dead against us?"
5248You do n''t?
5248You do not believe he is your friend?
5248You do not believe my words?
5248You do not mean what you say; you will not leave me here?
5248You fear him?
5248You found him lying there?
5248You had no business with Tom Pearce?
5248You have changed your mind?
5248You have found her?
5248You have got it down as fine as that, eh?
5248You have not seen him for a long time?
5248You have something to tell me?
5248You have spoken to her?
5248You have that down?
5248You know all about it, eh?
5248You know how we Yorkers work the trains?
5248You know she has been debarred of certain rights?
5248You know something concerning her real identity?
5248You know where it is?
5248You live at G-----?
5248You live in York?
5248You live on the island?
5248You live on the island?
5248You mean did she inform me''where the box was hidden?
5248You mistrust your reputed father?
5248You must have some reason for coming to warn me?
5248You never did?
5248You ought to know my name; you and I have met before; ca n''t you tell where?
5248You recognize the description?
5248You recognized him?
5248You remember the words addressed to you by Sol Burton?
5248You remember what I promised you?
5248You say my name is Denman?
5248You say the man is my enemy?
5248You say you are an honest man?
5248You say you are going off with them?
5248You say you have searched for the box?
5248You think I am a villain?
5248You think it would cost a man his life to be caught by those fellows?
5248You think you''ve met me before?
5248You want to see Vance?
5248You want to see one of the detectives?
5248You were assailed on Renie''s account?
5248You were coming to see me?
5248You were hiding around here?
5248You will aid me?
5248You will give a hundred dollars?
5248You will give me fifty dollars?
5248You will go off in the yacht with those men?
5248You will have to secure a special train; and now when will you be ready?
5248You will hustle me, eh?
5248You will leave the coast now?
5248You will not aid me?
5248You will not go to Rigby''s to- night?
5248You will pay me right down?
5248You will pay the money right down?
5248You will return at once?
5248You will?
5248You wish to ask the girl about it?
5248You would do her no harm?
5248You would offer a suggestion?
5248You would, eh?
5248You''re a man, you''re not a fish; how did you come in from the sea?
5248You''re going to die; tell us, old man, who did the deed?
5248You''re right; but tell me, am I in your quarters?
5248You''ve been a long time in the service?
5248You''ve heard about me?
5248You''ve something to tell me?
5248Young man, who are you?
5248Your daughter?
5248Your first trip on the''Nancy?''
5248Your mother?
5248Your name is Arbella?
5248Your name is King, eh?
5248Your name?
5248A moment Denman was silent and thoughtful, but at length said:"Are you on the make?"
5248After an interval Garcia said:"From that letter it would appear that the proofs of the girl''s identity were in your wife''s possession?"
5248And now, give an account of yourself-- what are you doing prowling around here?"
5248And now, to change the subject, have you any intimate friend, save your father?"
5248And so you did not come in from the sea, but you''re lying around here expecting to discover something?
5248Are you their friend?
5248At length the man uncovered his face, and said:"You think she has been abducted?"
5248At length, the old smuggler did revive, and Renie whispered the inquiry in his ear:"Father, who was it struck you down?"
5248Ballard stepped close to Sol Burton, and demanded in a determined tone,"What are you getting at?
5248But tell me; is the box in the girl''s possession?"
5248But you are safe, and you shall not come to harm; but tell me, who, is the man who was brought before me?"
5248Did you not give me to understand that you were prepared to go with me to Cuba any time I desired?"
5248Garcia said:"I suppose you mean the day might come when someone will appear to claim the girl, and you will lose a large sum of money?"
5248Have you known me before?"
5248Have you learned any of the circumstances surrounding the death of old Tom Pearce?"
5248He discerned the Cuban''s purpose; the man meant to take the girl to Cuba, perchance, to make her his wife, and why not?
5248He glanced at the girl with blazing eyes, and his hands worked nervously and there was a tremulousness in his voice as he asked:"Are you mad, girl?"
5248He looked Rigby all over in a supercilious manner, but at length answered:"Do n''t you know how detectives work?"
5248He received no immediate answer, and he once more called out:"Is there a man in your midst named Rigby?"
5248He said:"So old Pearce is dead?"
5248How do I know but you are an enemy?"
5248How far is your boat from here?"
5248How far were you off shore?"
5248I''m asking you who you are, and what you are doing here?"
5248In a hoarse voice the stranger asked;"Has the girl been murdered?"
5248It took him but a moment to release her with his knife, when she exclaimed:"I thank you for coming to my aid; but where are the villains?"
5248It was a strange thing to do; why should they tread thus lightly the deck of a ship ten miles off shore, as though their footsteps might be heard?
5248Listen: how much are you to get for laying me out?"
5248M----?"
5248Meantime, the old man more fully revived, when Renie whispered to him:"Father, do you know me?"
5248Meantime, who was the man up at the Pearce cabin?"
5248Mr. Selton showed a great deal of agitation as he asked:"And the girl Renie?"
5248Now what will you do?"
5248Now wink if you mean to keep quiet and save your life?"
5248Now, what information have you got for me?"
5248One of the men said to him:"Who served you out, Jim?"
5248Our hero recognized Ike Denman, the traitor and falsifier, captain of the"Nancy,"and he heard Ike say:"You are sure it was not one of the islanders?"
5248Pearce?"
5248Renie had returned to the interior of the cabin, and one of the men said:"Is the rope ready?"
5248Rigby answered himself by asking:"What do you want of Rigby?"
5248So you thought she alluded to the resurrection?"
5248The detective advanced to the spot where Renie stood, and in a low voice, he said:"Am I right?"
5248The detective approached the group of men standing outside and inquired:"Hello, what''s going on here?"
5248The detective approached the political dude and said:"Will you answer my questions?"
5248The detective as usual, was cool and easy, and, when an opportunity offered, demanded:"Is there a man in your company named Rigby?"
5248The detective came to a halt, and said:"What do you want?"
5248The detective glanced at the girl with an expression of aroused curiousness as he said:"You dreamed of me?"
5248The detective on the impulse of the moment, was prompted to ask:"Suppose they kill me, what will you do, Renie?"
5248The detective saw the girl advance toward the rough- looking man, and overheard her say:"You know the secret of my life?"
5248The detective smiled as he answered:"I can depend upon you?"
5248The detective started to leave the cabin, when the old man called him back and asked:"What is your name?"
5248The eyes of the man Garcia glistened as he asked:"What makes you think so?"
5248The girl pressed forward close to the doomed man, and addressing him, said:"Are you innocent or guilty?"
5248The latter recoiled and demanded:"What would you do?"
5248The man gave a perceptible start, and demanded:"Why do you ask that question?"
5248The man slaked his thirst, and asked:"Where am I?"
5248The man winked, and the detective said:"Now tell me your name?"
5248The man, after indulging in a few moments''silent thought as described, said:"Do you think it possible to communicate with the girl alone?"
5248The master of the"Nancy"laughed, and said:"Do you call that a trip?"
5248The old man- of- war''s- man, who had been attending the wounded smuggler, exclaimed:"Die, is it?
5248The old smuggler fixed his eyes on the young man, and said:"Who sent you here?"
5248The old smuggler looked the detective all over, and a change came over his face as he said:"Is that the man I denounced?"
5248The silence was broken by the armed man, who said:"Well, mister, what are you doing spying around here?"
5248The smuggler did not make an immediate reply,"What have you to say?"
5248The smuggler gazed at the detective with an expression of wonderment upon his face,"You were there?"
5248The smuggler, at length, appeared to realize that he had been bound, and he said:"Who tied me up this way?"
5248There, the thing''s out; so now, what have you got to say?"
5248They took a seat and Denman demanded in an impatient tone:"Well, what have you to say to me?"
5248Turning to the wounded man, the fellow continued:"Tom, who was the man who assailed you?"
5248Upon entering the cabin the girl was addressed by her father, who asked:"Renie, what do you think of that fellow?"
