35487	Owls?
35487	Really?
35487	So?
35487	Suppose they steal?
35487	Then how can you claim they''re yours?
35487	Then how would you expect to convince a judge or justice? 35487 They say,"the waiter pursued his interrogation,"that you and another guy fought over some muskrats?"
35487	This Trull-- seems to me I''ve seen his name on our records-- what''s he want there?
35487	Time to be moving, huh?
35487	Well,the trooper''s voice was edged with sarcasm,"what do you think they might steal?"
35487	Well-- has someone tried to stop you?
35487	Well?

35487	What?
35487	Who told you?
35487	Why?
35487	Will a trespass sign keep Luke Trull out of any place he wants to go into?
35487	Would you mind letting me pick them up after dark?
35487	Wu''th a heap of money, ai n''t they?
35487	You assaulted this Trull character?
35487	You et?
35487	You-- you wo n''t hurt the kittens?
35487	Yours was a wilful attack?
35487	All I come out for was to see why ya fo''got to ask me?"
35487	And why was he forever getting ideas and fancies which no one else seemed ever to entertain?
35487	But what could he do and who would listen?
35487	But when Luke Trull saw a possibility of earning money without working for it--?
35487	But why had he not hidden the hat?
35487	Do you know what I''d do?"
35487	Do you understand?"
35487	Has it occurred to you that your muskrat ranch will either have to be something pretty decent or else not worth bothering with?"
35487	He asked suddenly,"What do you want in that swamp?"
35487	How about some grub?"
35487	How are you going to carry them?"
35487	How did they know?
35487	How do you like it, Gates?
35487	How many you got all told?"
35487	However, who could doubt that surplus kittens, for which there was no room in town, would be very well off in the hills?
35487	If so, why?
35487	Is there anything for me?"
35487	It lacks an hour to their feeding time, but maybe I should feed them before they go?"
35487	Johnny asked whimsically,"What are you going to do with''em, Andy?"
35487	Justice Benton glanced briefly at the papers pertaining to the case and turned to Andy,"How does the defendant plead?"
35487	Letting the hat speak for him, had he announced to Andy that he, Luke Trull, was stealing muskrats and there was nothing Andy could do about it?
35487	Or did he want a meeting in the swamp?
35487	Suddenly a crisp voice asked,"Is your name Gates?"
35487	They''s mushrats, ai n''t they?"
35487	Was it his way of jeering?
35487	What are they, Andy?"
35487	What can I do?"
35487	What have they stolen?"
35487	What''s on your mind?"
35487	What''s the penalty?"
35487	Who but a fool would try to get what he wanted with a gun when it was much easier and safer to think his way through to it?
35487	Why did n''t you take them in at night and plant them back in the swamp?
35487	Why do you need my advice?"
35487	Why should he have sensed a powerful bond between the kitten and himself?
35487	Why would I hurt''em when I told the Mister I''d take''em?"
35487	Why, when he saw Andy coming, had he not taken off his hat and hidden it?
35487	Will posting the swamp help?"
35487	Will two dollars extra be all right?"
35487	Will you loan me one?"
35487	Wonder how he got his nose dug that way?"
35487	Would pen- raised muskrats be able to survive the unfamiliar perils?
35487	Ye allus mess''round this swamp, an''what''ll folks think when ye jest do n''t come out?"
35487	You''d just as soon keep it private, huh?"
35487	You''re gittin''twenty mo''these mushrats?"
18952	A bird make a screechy sound like that?
18952	Ai n''t we a nobby looking bunch of scouts now, though?
18952	And I do n''t suppose now, you''ve missed any valuables, have you, sir?
18952	And it was all there then, you say?
18952	And they come back again in the night to roost there; is that it, Paul?
18952	And we''d hate the worst kind to disappoint our friends and folks, would n''t we, fellers?
18952	Are they good to eat?
18952	Are we gettin''near where Jo lives?
18952	But can you tell where that bunch is coming from, and where bound?
18952	But see where the bally old thing''s heading, will you?
18952	But she keeps agettin''darker right along, Paul?
18952	But what''s that to us, fellers?
18952	But you admit then that you_ have_ done such a thing?
18952	But you''ve yet to know whether that milk is as rich as you hoped?
18952	Ca n''t we hit it up a little faster, Paul?
18952	Can they be eaten at all, Paul?
18952	Can you get a pointer on to what it all means?
18952	Could n''t a been one of the cows taken to smoking, I suppose?
18952	Could we be useful if we did manage to trot over there, Paul?
18952	Could we help you in any way, Mr. Rollins? 18952 Did he stay here over night with you?"
18952	Did n''t I hear something about our having to register at a lot of places along the way?
18952	Did you ever hear of such rotten luck, now?
18952	Did you hear it?
18952	Do n''t hear any answer, do you, fellers?
18952	Do n''t you think we must be nearly in the heart of the old bog, Paul? 18952 Do we all have to go, Paul, or are you going to let several of us tramp along to Beverly?"
18952	Do we make a bee line for that quarter, Paul?
18952	Do you know of anybody who would do such a terrible thing; that is, have you any enemy that you know of, sir?
18952	Give''em a toot from your bugle, and see what they think?
18952	Had n''t we better be moving on?
18952	Have we got enough grub along to last out?
18952	Have you any idea that the fire could have been the work of tramps?
18952	Here, who''s carrying that rope right now?
18952	How about it, Paul?
18952	How about that one over yonder?
18952	How about that, Paul?
18952	How about the prospect of getting through there?
18952	How about you, Noodles; d''ye think you''re good for such a tough walk?
18952	How about you, Noodles?
18952	How did the fire start, sir?
18952	How do you make out, sir?
18952	How far away does it lie, dy''e think, Paul?
18952	How far must I haf dropped if dot pully oldt khaki cloth gives vay?
18952	How?
18952	However do you think I can fill up all this space here with just one ration? 18952 I hope you do n''t think I did that on purpose, Noodles?"
18952	Is Jo your hired man?
18952	Just put a pin in that, to remember it, Paul, wo n''t you?
18952	Let''s sneak up to the window, and peek in?
18952	Listen, Fritz,added Jotham,"see that little enclosure just back of where she stands?
18952	Look at the old cow, would you?
18952	Look over yonder, will you?
18952	Looks like I''m clean busted, do n''t it?
18952	Mebbe a blast from my horn would reach him?
18952	Now, Mr. Rollins, please tell me what it all means?
18952	Now, why could n''t the old thing have dipped low enough right here for us to grab that trailing rope?
18952	P''raps my tin cash box?
18952	P''raps when they know what happened, the committee''ll be willing to give us a chance to make another try next week?
18952	Paul, do you think that can be a man hanging there?
18952	Perhaps, when you lighted your pipe you may have thrown the match away, and it fell in the hay?
18952	Put I do n''t want to be owned py any girl as I knows; so what differences does idt make, dell me?
18952	Say, how about it?
18952	Say, perhaps we might grab hold of some trailing rope, and bring the old thing down?
18952	See what?
18952	Solid ground, you mean, eh?
18952	Suppose you try it, eh? 18952 Sure Seth, and what''s that to a husky lot of Boy Scouts, who''ve been through the mill, and wear merit badges all around?
18952	That was Jo,muttered Mr. Rollins,"I seen his face plain as anything; but why would he be coming from the direction of town, instead of my place?"
18952	The Beaver Patrol luck right in the start; did n''t I say nothing could hold out against that?
18952	Then please follow directly after me; and Seth, you fall in behind Mr. Anderson, will you?
18952	Then we''re going to start right away to try and find the middle of Black Water Swamps-- is that the idea, Paul?
18952	Then you do n''t know?
18952	Then you''ve noticed such a tree, have you?
18952	Then you''ve thought of some one who might have known that you had three thousand dollars under your roof, is that it, sir?
18952	Think I c''n lasso a bucking broncho? 18952 Was Jo working near the house then, can you remember, sir?"
18952	We''ll show''em how we''ve climbed up out of the tenderfoot class; hey, boys?
18952	Well, did you ever hear the beat of that, maw?
18952	Well, do we make that start for home and mother and supper right now; or are we going to stay here till she gets plumb dark?
18952	Well, we had our wish answered on the spot, did n''t we?
18952	Well, what is it?
18952	What d''ye mean, Paul, by sayin''that?
18952	What is it, Jotham?
18952	What might that be, Seth?
18952	What say, shall we go, fellows?
18952	What''s that about alligators?
18952	What''s that?
18952	What, you do n''t mean to tell me that you are something of a doctor as well as a leader of scouts?
18952	What?
18952	When was the last time you went up there to look at it?
18952	Wherever do you suppose he came from, Paul?
18952	Which spot, Paul?
18952	Will it land near here, d''ye think, Paul?
18952	Yes, and Paul, please let us know just how much further you expect to coax the leg weary bunch on today? 18952 Yes, go on; a week ago, you say?"
18952	Yes, tell us what the scheme is?
18952	You said as how you''d got all the stock out safe, did n''t you, Mr. Rollins? 18952 You seem to have a lot of money all of a sudden, Jo?"
18952	Your money, I suppose you mean?
18952	Ai n''t scouts got a right to live off the country as they hike through,''specially if they pay for what they take?"
18952	Ai n''t you tried to buy it off me more''n a few times?
18952	And Paul, had n''t we better be trying our luck some more now?
18952	And about that Thatcher place, Jo, we''ll easy make terms, because nobody ai n''t going to have it but you and your maw, hear that?"
18952	And he wants us to report that the_ Great Republic_ is down; Anderson, he said his name was, did n''t he, Paul?"
18952	And looking back we have a right to feel a little proud of the record we''ve made, eh, fellers?"
18952	Anderson?"
18952	Anybody else feel milk thirsty?
18952	But I do n''t believe it could have been a human being, do you, Paul?"
18952	But if a piece of the bally old balloon fell right here, Paul, do n''t that tell us the wreck must a passed over where we''re standing now?"
18952	But if not a cat, what was making that angry snarling?
18952	But this will kill his old mother; however could he do it?
18952	CHAPTER III THE GENTLE COW"Paul, how do we hold out for the third day on the hike?"
18952	CHAPTER VII INNOCENT OR GUILTY?
18952	CHAPTER XII WHERE NO FOOT HAS EVER TROD"Now whatever do you suppose made that racket?"
18952	CHAPTER XIII THE OASIS IN THE SWAMP"Was that another fish- eating bird like a crane, Paul?"
18952	Did you stop long enough to see?"
18952	Do you remember comin''outdoors on that night for anything, sir?"
18952	Do you want to go to town, while the rest of us are searching the swamps for the aeronaut, Eben?"
18952	Guess we have to follow one of these crazy little hummocks that run criss- cross through the place, eh, Frank?"
18952	How about it, fellows?"
18952	How about that, Jo?"
18952	How about that, boys?"
18952	How would three thousand sound to you, Jo?
18952	How wouldt you feel if you rescued der argonaut, and lose your chump; dell me dot?
18952	However did you know it, sir?"
18952	In the drawer, you mean?
18952	Is that about the figure now, tell me?"
18952	Jo, my boy, my boy, what does he mean by saying that?"
18952	Let me be, wo n''t you?
18952	Louis?"
18952	Paul, what had we ought to do?
18952	Paul?"
18952	Petter luck nexdt time, hey?"
18952	Queer coincidence I''d call it now, would n''t you?"
18952	Rollins?"
18952	Rollins?"
18952	Say, Paul, did you know about this camp site before; because it''s the dandiest place we''ve struck on the big hike?"
18952	Scoutmaster?"
18952	See here, if I tied a nickel or a dime in a piece of paper, and attached it to her horn, would n''t that be all right, Paul?
18952	See here, sir, can you ever remember walking in your sleep?"
18952	Subbose I want to make some squash pie down on der rocks?"
18952	That''s plain, sir, ai n''t it?"
18952	Wait here a minute, will you, please?"
18952	Was Jo Davies, then, such a silly fellow as this?
18952	Was the unfortunate aeronaut slowly bleeding to death, lying there amidst the bushes on that tongue of land?
18952	What did I do?
18952	What if he''s gone and broke his neck?"
18952	Whatever d''ye think could a set the fire agoin''?
18952	Why, it''s only a measly little twenty- five miles per day, and what d''ye think?"
18952	Will we try for that last mile, boys?
18952	Would the farmer find his missing wad snugly secreted in the old Dutch oven, as Paul so confidently suggested?
18952	You moost some fun pe making when you say dot, Paul?"
18952	a real and true balloon?"
18952	ai n''t that boys shouting?"
18952	bellowed Noodles;"do we whoop her up, Paul?"
18952	come off, Andy, you do n''t really mean that, do you?"
18952	did you ever see such a flock of the old caw- caws?"
18952	do you really think so, my boy?"
18952	look at all the crows flying over, would you?"
18952	look at that, would you?"
18952	that_ would_ be a joke on us now, would n''t it, if we made our way all over this beastly place, when there was n''t any aeronaut to help?
18952	what d''ye think of that now; ai n''t she gone and done it though?"
18952	what is that?"
18952	what sort of help can reach him there?"
18952	what''s that big thing rising up behind the tops of the trees over there?"
18952	what''s the use of hurrying?"
18952	why do n''t you gif me a handt?"
18952	you do n''t say?"
55021	Abram?
55021	Alligator?
55021	And as I did n''t suppose she would accept any other Indian--"You brought Coacoochee back with you?
55021	And did you ever see such a change in so short a time? 55021 And do you trust the man whom you have just left?"
55021	And me?
55021	And who is the other, pray?
55021	Are the warriors trained by Coacoochee to be told what they shall do, and what they shall not do, by a pack of Miccosouky dogs?
55021	But I suppose you have come on business?
55021	But supposing Coacoochee does not come? 55021 But what have white men got to do with this business?"
55021	But who is the rascally beggar?
55021	But why did n''t you bring him ashore? 55021 But,"said Talmus,"was it not one of the Iste- hatke who brought us these things?
55021	Ca n''t I go too, colonel?
55021	Ca n''t you guess, Anstice? 55021 Can it be true?
55021	Can we trust him, Letty? 55021 Coacoochee, is it you?"
55021	Danger?
55021	Did n''t you say it must be a double wedding or none?
55021	Did she recognize the white men?
55021	Do n''t you count on me too, colonel? 55021 Do you believe that?
55021	Do you promise for the sake of this maiden to strive with all your powers to attain the rank of a warrior? 55021 Do?
55021	Does it take four of you to whip one Indian? 55021 Does my brother hear anything?"
55021	Does my brother regard me so meanly as to think that to save my life alone, or to save a thousand lives such as mine, I would have signed?
55021	Douglass captured and about to be killed? 55021 Douglass?
55021	Have you brought Coacoochee back with you? 55021 He still lives?
55021	How came you here? 55021 How can we?"
55021	How do you know it was a ghost, and not a live man?
55021	How is it possible for you to hear these things when I can hear nothing at all?
55021	How is this? 55021 I say whar did you steal that dog, Injun?"
55021	Is it true?
55021	Is n''t it a pleasure to see her so happy?
55021	Is there any way of finding out who these poor devils were?
55021	Is thy man''s heart turned by thy captivity into that of Cho- fee[ the rabbit], and art thou become one who trembles at the sight of his own shadow? 55021 Must be niggers, then?"
55021	No, we have n''t heard any news; what is it?
55021	No?
55021	Now, Mr. Injun, what have you got to say to that?
55021	Sam Jones?
55021	So you acknowledge that you hain''t got no pass, do you, Injun? 55021 WILEY THOMPSON, WHERE IS MY WIFE?"
55021	Was n''t it, now? 55021 Was there no way for my brother to save his life but by signing the white man''s paper?"
55021	Were you bound, blind- folded, or in any other way deprived of the use of your faculties?
55021	What do you mean by the theatre?
55021	What do you mean?
55021	What do you mean?
55021	What does it all mean?
55021	What does this mean? 55021 What for?"
55021	What has become of them, then?
55021	What is awful? 55021 What is it, Coacoochee?
55021	What was the cause of the firing I heard but a short while since? 55021 What were you doing there?"
55021	What would you do in that case?
55021	What''s your name?
55021	Where are the other chiefs, and why have they not surrendered?
55021	Where did you see it?
55021	Who do you say is captured? 55021 Who owns him?"
55021	Who was in command?
55021	Who? 55021 Whose ghost do you think it was?"
55021	Why have you not done this already? 55021 Will you, Coacoochee?
55021	Would the white maiden take the hand of her who is of the Iste- lustee?
55021	Yes, but may you not be mistaken? 55021 You do n''t mean Mr. Douglass, brother?"
55021	You do n''t say so?
55021	Ai n''t ye, now?"
55021	And did n''t you know that poor Nita was wearing her heart out with suspense?"
55021	And do n''t you suppose we know it, too, you confoundedly proud Seminole, you?"
55021	And you''ll set up a nigger''s oath and an Injun''s oath agin that of a white man, will ye?
55021	Are his warriors glad when they hear them?"
55021	Are the white men so?
55021	Are the words of Coacoochee good in the ears of the tribe?
55021	Are the words of Coacoochee good in the ears of the white war- chief?"
55021	Are we dogs that we should suffer this thing?
55021	Are we to be attacked?
55021	Are you not in equal, or even in greater, peril?
55021	Are you really alive?
55021	Are you willing to promise that from that time his lodge shall be thy lodge, his friends thy friends, and his enemies thy enemies?
55021	Besides, it is too high for us to reach, and, even if we got outside, would we not fall again into the hands of the soldiers?"
55021	Besides, was he not going into danger for her sake, and the sake of those most dear to her?
55021	Boyd, I of course count on you to go with us?"
55021	But are you certain that Coacoochee is dead?"
55021	CHAPTER XIII"WILEY THOMPSON, WHERE IS MY WIFE?"
55021	Ca n''t I go with you?"
55021	Can all this be true?"
55021	Canby?"
55021	D''ye hear?"
55021	Did Indian fight with Indian?
55021	Did Nita find out the name of the other man?"
55021	Did he continue to do this when he found that his weapons were no match for those of the white man?
55021	Did n''t you suppose we wanted to see him?
55021	Did you not hear me give my word to this youth that he should go in safety?
55021	Do n''t you know the meaning of the word''gratitude''?
55021	Do n''t you know?
55021	Do you know what you are talking about?
55021	Do you not realize your awful peril?
55021	Do you promise, when that time comes, to take her to your lodge to be your squaw?
55021	Does my brother now understand why I signed?"
55021	Finally Osceola, apparently satisfied with what he saw, broke the silence, and said:"We are brothers?"
55021	Had the savages been attacked by a party of whites?
55021	Has he told us the truth?"
55021	Has my brother won the heart of a pale- faced maiden?"
55021	Have n''t you come for me?
55021	Have you brought a token from her?"
55021	He only asked:"Why should Coacoochee halt at the command of a white man?"
55021	Here are two accounted for, but what has become of the other two?
55021	How could such a thing be?
55021	How dare you?
55021	How dared you then even contemplate this outrage?
55021	I am in time?"
55021	I suppose you have heard the great news and are come out to verify it?"
55021	I wonder if Osceola is among these Indians?"
55021	I wonder, though, if that can be the secret of Irwin''s escape?"
55021	If he could only obtain the position of guide to Major Dade''s little army, what would be easier than to deliver them into the hands of Coacoochee?
55021	If it is a better land than this, as the white man tells us, why does he not go there himself and leave us alone?
55021	If there is no peace, if the Seminole must fight, then who will fight harder or more bravely than Coacoochee?
55021	If they do those things, why should not the Indian do them as well?
55021	In the present instance how could Osceola have gained his liberty by any other means?
55021	Is it a go?
55021	Is it as a prisoner?
55021	Is it not so?"
55021	Is it well?"
55021	Is it you?
55021	Is n''t she?"
55021	Is n''t that so, boy?"
55021	Is that you?"
55021	Is there nothing left but to fight and die?
55021	Is this the way you continue a private quarrel and gratify your devilish instincts?
55021	Might not the same fate overtake her most dear to him and hundreds of others with her?
55021	Not going back?"
55021	Now, Mr. Douglass, since you are so happily restored to us, please tell me what to expect in yonder den of swamp devils?
55021	Of course you gained the victory, though?"
55021	Or have you decided to join the winning side, and become an ally of the Americans?"
55021	Or shall we meet them in battle and prove to them that our words were not empty boastings, when we said the Seminole would fight for his land?
55021	Perhaps, sir, you can give us the desired information?"
55021	Rather different from the idea prevailing in most white communities, is it not?"
55021	Shall we allow them to pass by us and join their friends?
55021	Should she still attempt to escape, or should she trust the youth who had just announced himself to be Coacoochee, the friend of her brother?
55021	That we left so many of them alive?
55021	The first of these struck like a blow:"Are you prepared to deliver up at once all negroes taken from citizens?
55021	The white man puts a spy to death; why should not the Indian?
55021	Then there came a rustle beside the motionless figure and a whispered:"Louis, my brother?"
55021	They recognized it as the signal of Coacoochee; but where was he?
55021	Under the circumstances, do n''t you think it will be just as well not to tell Anstice what we have seen?"
55021	Was Salano''s hatred of the young Indian whom he had so cruelly wronged so bitter that he was determined to seize every opportunity for killing him?
55021	Was her brother really wounded, and was she being taken to him, or were those only plausible tales to lure her away beyond chance of rescue?
55021	Was not one white man equal to five Indians at any time?
55021	What argument, though, was it you used at the last?
55021	What could have put such a belief into your mind?"
55021	What could it mean?
55021	What do you think you hear?"
55021	What does this mean?"
55021	What force opposes us?
55021	What has happened?"
55021	What has happened?"
55021	What have you done with her?
55021	What is it, dear?"
55021	What is the meaning of this ominous silence?"
55021	What is to become of them?
55021	What now shall be done?
55021	What possible interest can your guest have in Coacoochee?"
55021	What should she do?
55021	What would a soldier''s life be without it?
55021	What, then, is thy opinion concerning this tale of wrong and outrage?"
55021	When they returned to the outer room, Douglass asked curiously:"What does it mean, Boyd?
55021	Where can they go?
55021	Where could she find a braver or more gallant protector than Coacoochee?
55021	Where have you been?"
55021	Where is my wife?
55021	Where were the whites she had so confidently expected to see?
55021	Which way should she turn?
55021	Who are those yonder?"
55021	Who can it be?"
55021	Why are you here instead of safe in Augustine as we thought?
55021	Why did I do it?"
55021	Why do n''t you tell us?"
55021	Why, the girl is as white as Anstice herself, and even if she were not, do you suppose that would make any difference?
55021	Wiley Thompson, where is my wife?"
55021	Will my sister keep its secret hidden deep in her own bosom, where no enemy of the Iste- chatte shall ever find it?"
55021	Will my white brother go with me?"
55021	Will you come with us, Boyd?"
55021	Will you do this thing for me?"
55021	Will you go with me and see him?
55021	Will you go with me, and exert your influence to induce him to come in?"
55021	With a feeble shout of joy at sight of his friend, the sufferer exclaimed tremulously:"Is she safe?
55021	Wo n''t Anstice be pleased, though?
55021	Wo n''t you please arrange it, like a dear man?"
55021	Wo n''t you shake hands with me in token of friendship?"
55021	Wo n''t you--?"
55021	Would it not be better for them to incur the dangers and sufferings of war rather than those of slavery?
55021	Would the brave girl succeed in saving the life of her lover?
55021	Would you mind, sir, if I followed this new trail a few miles, not to exceed five?
55021	You''re a nice, respectable, chummy sort of a chap, ai n''t you, now?
55021	and maybe bring help to your brother?
55021	and what has happened, dear, to frighten you?"
55021	by your rascally intrusion into other folk''s privacy?"
55021	exclaimed Boyd,"are you the sentry who disappeared last night?"
55021	here is their camp now; but I say, Coacoochee, who is that white girl sitting among the Indian women?
55021	if you have killed yourself, what will it all amount to?
55021	one would say reproachfully,"yo wouldn''tink ob astin''a ole ooman to leab behine de onliest fedder bed she done got?"
55021	or must he die like a dog, without ever again treading the soil of his native land?
55021	to hunt game for her?
55021	to love her and bear with her until the Great Spirit shall call you to dwell with him in the Happy Hunting- grounds?"
55021	to protect her with your life from harm?
55021	to see that she suffers not from hunger?
55021	whar did you steal that dog?"
55021	why are you here?
55021	why did I do it?
55021	you ai n''t going to start along so soon, be ye?"
52782	''Hello,''says I,''when did you git in? 52782 About what matter?"
52782	Ah, you''re finding our boy out, eh?
52782	Ai n''t you going for to make some sorter effort to git your hosses out of the field?
52782	Ai n''t you got no sense? 52782 All the way through the dark for that?
52782	And so this is Mr. Simmons, the famous negro hunter?
52782	And so you did n''t catch him; and your fine dogs are finer now than they ever were?
52782	And then what?
52782	And what was you doing all that time?
52782	And what wonderful person will do this for you, my boy?
52782	And when are you going home to your master?
52782	Are you still in the woods, Aaron?
52782	But if we find them, Son of Ben Ali?
52782	But what was the nigger doing at your place?
52782	But, Colonel, if he''s that, what do you want him caught for?
52782	But, Colonel,drawled Mr. Simmons,"what under the sun ever got the idee in your head that Addison Abercrombie_ is_ harboring your nigger?"
52782	But, Colonel,remonstrated Mr. Jim Simmons,"did n''t you send for me?
52782	By what means did you know that the horse had been left without food and water?
52782	Can you pass them here?
52782	Can you walk, Master?
52782	Dat ar Aaron had um atter''i m, an''what''d he do?
52782	Den how come I ca n''t fool dem ar dogs?
52782	Did I say that? 52782 Did anybody cross from the other side this morning?"
52782	Did he go into the cabins?
52782	Did n''t you hear him when he butted me?
52782	Did you fellows see It?
52782	Did you notice,said the young man who was first to see the apparition,"that the Thing that was riding the Thing had no head?"
52782	Do n''t he open on track?
52782	Do n''t you know dey done foun''out whar you stays at? 52782 Do n''t you know what a runaway is?
52782	Do you think you''d''a''caught him, Colonel, taking into account all the circumstances and things?
52782	Ear- marks? 52782 Got who?"
52782	Have you ever paid Abercrombie?
52782	Have you ever visited that country?
52782	Have you seen a pistol lying loose anywhere around here?
52782	Here?
52782	Honey, ai n''t it de trufe?
52782	How came it so red, den?
52782	How come any chil''out dis time er night?
52782	How come, I like ter know?
52782	How come? 52782 How come?"
52782	How long have you been standing here?
52782	How you know?
52782	Hurt much, Master?
52782	I charged you interest, did n''t I, Simmons?
52782	I did n''t say I was going to catch him, did I?
52782	I did n''t say he could n''t get away from my dogs, did I?
52782	I''d git de meat-- but dey mout ketch''i m, an''den what''d I look like?
52782	If they were after the runaway, what on earth did he mean by going in this direction?
52782	Is anybody ever hear de beat er dat? 52782 Is dat Aaron?"
52782	Is that Sound?
52782	Is that so?
52782	Is that so?
52782	Is that so?
52782	Jim Simmons? 52782 Jimmy, you did n''t go and apologize to that old buzzard for what I said, did you?"
52782	Kin you handle dish yer paddle? 52782 Man, ai n''t you tired?"
52782	Man, what you think?
52782	May I ask the old man there a few questions?
52782	Me? 52782 Me?
52782	Me?
52782	Mine? 52782 Nothing?"
52782	Of course they are-- how can they help themselves?
52782	Of course you believed in the country next door to the world?
52782	Oh, have you been admitted to the sanctum?
52782	On what bank, Gossett?
52782	Only three, Son of Ben Ali? 52782 Shall I go too?"
52782	Shall I have Timoleon put in the new stable to- night?
52782	Shall I ride him down, Son of Ben Ali?
52782	Shall I use a club on you, White Grunter? 52782 Sho nuff?"
52782	Suh?
52782	Supposing you had,suggested Mr. Simmons,"would you''a''done it?
52782	That you, Terrell?
52782	The child with the crutches?
52782	The missing boat? 52782 Then that''s the reason you think Abercrombie ai n''t harboring my nigger?"
52782	Up or down?
52782	Was a bateau missing from this side this morning?
52782	Was anybody with you in the bateau when you went down the river this morning?
52782	Was he in that one?
52782	Well?
52782	Were the bloodhounds after him?
52782	Were you hunting the runaway?
52782	Whar yo''huffs? 52782 What Aaron done done?"
52782	What are the ear- marks, ma''am?
52782	What are you crying about?
52782	What dat?
52782	What dey doin''out dar?
52782	What did you find?
52782	What did you see? 52782 What do I think?
52782	What do you see in the man?
52782	What do you suppose the trouble was?
52782	What do you think now?
52782	What has this great man ever done for you, Simmons?
52782	What horse?
52782	What is the noise about, Lucy?
52782	What is your name?
52782	What kind er folks is you?
52782	What two things, Colonel?
52782	What was that dog barking at just now?
52782	What was the trouble, Randall?
52782	What were they talking about?
52782	What wid?
52782	What yo''name?
52782	What you doin''?
52782	What you gwine ter do?
52782	What you gwine ter lan''on the same side wid Jim Simmons fer?
52782	What''s that?
52782	What''s that?
52782	What''s what?
52782	What''s your name?
52782	When was that?
52782	Where did the voice come from?
52782	Where is this country that is next door to the world?
52782	Where is your runaway? 52782 Where''s my pistol?"
52782	Where''s the ford?
52782	Whereabouts is that country?
52782	Which way did It go?
52782	Which way did he go, Uncle Jake?
52782	White er blue?
52782	Who are you?
52782	Who carried the bateau over the shoals this morning?
52782	Who is you? 52782 Who lives there?"
52782	Who said anything about fire? 52782 Who was it?"
52782	Who was with you in the bateau?
52782	Who''s behind you?
52782	Who? 52782 Who?"
52782	Why did you come?
52782	Why, confound it, do n''t you know this horse is as wild as a buck? 52782 Whyn''t you go in an''see whether Aaron was in there?"
52782	Would you teach me?
52782	Wuz you, sho nuff?
52782	Yes, ai n''t that Gossett?
52782	Yes, where?
52782	You are still anxious to punish the poor man who was hurt by the horse?
52782	You gwine dar to Gossett''s? 52782 You know that new school teacher at Abercrombie''s?"
52782	You wish what?
52782	You''ve saved your$ 30, hain''t you?
52782	You? 52782 Your runaway?
52782	A runaway sitting by his side and driving a fractious and easily frightened horse without bit or bridle?
52782	A''on gwine in dar en put dat ar hoss up?
52782	Ai n''t you coming?
52782	Am I a horse to be ridden?
52782	An''whar de lines?
52782	And more than that: do n''t I know from my own niggers that the yaller rapscallion comes here every chance he gets?
52782	And the reply was,"Well, why not?"
52782	And was it truly true that he had ever worn a shoe as small as that?
52782	And who''s going to hurt me, pap?"
52782	And why did Susy''s Sam hang back and want to turn his mule around before he had finished the furrow?
52782	And why should he come whirling back at dusk,--a red cloud of dust rising beneath the Gray Pony''s feet?
52782	Are you fixing to have me killed?
52782	But did Aaron have the same power over his own master?
52782	But what difference did that make?
52782	But what is it to be touched?
52782	But where?
52782	Ca n''t you put him in his stable?"
52782	Ca n''t you talk?
52782	Could it be that by some noiseless shifting of the scenery he was even now in the country next door to the world?
52782	De speckled pullet hollered shoo ter hawk, but what good did dat do?"
52782	Did he know the paths?
52782	Did n''t Aaron belong to Chunky Riley''s master?
52782	Did n''t he double and turn and go back the way he came, to be caught and killed on dry land?
52782	Did n''t he have the Simmons nigger- dogs after him that very day?
52782	Did n''t his master try to catch him?
52782	Did n''t the Colonel send one of his nigger women to the quarters on the Abercrombie plantation?
52782	Did n''t the woman say she had seen the runaway?
52782	Did n''t you buy him and pay your money down for him?
52782	Did n''t you say,''Glad to see you, Simmons; walk right in and make yourself at home''?
52782	Do n''t you know dey er gwine ter hunt you in de mornin''?
52782	Do n''t you know dey got de dogs dar?
52782	Do n''t you know he''ll ketch you ef you do dat?
52782	Do n''t you know some er de niggers''ll see you-- an''maybe de overseer?
52782	Do n''t you know you ca n''t git away fum dem dogs fer ter save yo''life?"
52782	Do n''t you reckon you could tell when anybody was trying to insult you?
52782	Do n''t you think it''s cunning?"
52782	Do n''t you want him out of the woods?
52782	Do n''t you want ter b''long ter Sally Ward?"
52782	Do you blame me, Colonel?"
52782	Do you keep him in a box and permit only your best friends to peep at him occasionally?"
52782	Ear- marks?
52782	Ef I squeeze too tight, des say de word;"and then,"Whar we gwine, honey?
52782	Fer catching the nigger?
52782	Fullalove?"
52782	Git him out, did I say?
52782	Had he seen the horses?
52782	Has he escaped?"
52782	Have stray dogs crept under the door?
52782	He felt that he and his father had been wronged by some one, he could n''t say who, but not by the runaway, for what was a"nigger,"anyhow?
52782	He jumped as if he had heard the report of a gun, and cried out in a tone of alarm:--"Who flung dat rock?
52782	He knew by the scent of the cigar that the voices he heard belonged to white men: but who were they?
52782	Him harbor niggers?
52782	Hit''s some trouble ter git de corn off''n de cob, but spozen dey want no corn on de cob, what den?"
52782	How am I to do it?"
52782	How come dey ai n''t no niggers but de Gossett niggers in de woods?
52782	How come you got ter go up de river?"
52782	How come you ter know''bout de missin''boat?"
52782	How could this be?
52782	How did Aaron know that the horse had gone without water and food?
52782	How did he know?
52782	How did the Swamp know?
52782	I tried to make the hoss stand, but he would n''t, and, just then, what should I see but two great big wildcats trying to sneak up on me?
52782	I wonder if he''s taken up over here?
52782	I''m so small, and-- and so crippled, you know, nobody would ever think I had a runaway?"
52782	If Aaron really had any influence over his own master, why did n''t he stay at home instead of going into the woods?
52782	If it was too late for him to learn the language of the animals, how could he hope to interpret the prophecies of the constellations?
52782	If we find them, shall I use my teeth?"
52782	Is anybody ever see de beat er dat?
52782	Is that it?"
52782	Is we dat close?"
52782	Jimmy do n''t owe you nothin'', does he?"
52782	Man, who is you?"
52782	Marster, how in de name er goodness kin you drive dish yer hoss widout bridle er lines?"
52782	May I examine your neck to see what can be done?"
52782	Me?"
52782	Now what do you pay me fer?
52782	Now, how come dat?
52782	Now, if he was n''t a nigger what was he trying to play nigger for?
52782	Now, was n''t he wise for his age?
52782	Now, where does he go?"
52782	Oh, is n''t there some one to hear me?"
52782	Once there, was there a hound that would venture to take a bath with him?
52782	Saddle''em by sun- up?
52782	Says he,''Will you please, sir, give me as much as a spoonful of low- wines for to rub on my legs?''
52782	Shall I make bacon of you?
52782	She''s a scorcher, ai n''t she?"
52782	Smoke without fire?
52782	Suppose that some quagmire or other in that there swamp has gone and got up a ruction on its own hook?
52782	That is, if Aaron could n''t call the elements to his aid-- but suppose he could?
52782	Was he following the rolling echoes?
52782	Was he listening?
52782	Was it Mr. Coon or Cousin Coon?
52782	Was it for this,--for this,--her darling child had been born?
52782	Was it indeed true?
52782	Was it the runaway''s intention to jump suddenly from the buggy and strike the horse with the whip?
52782	Was n''t he a runaway?
52782	Was n''t there a snap and a snarl when the partridge- pea vine caught his foot?
52782	Was n''t there a splash and a splutter as he ran into the quagmire?
52782	Was one of the bateaux missing this morning?"
52782	Well, then, why did n''t his master keep Aaron while he had him in the buggy?
52782	Were n''t the chances ten to one that when she saw him she told him that Simmons would be after him in the morning?
52782	Whar you say de key is?"
52782	What about foxfire?
52782	What am I that my food should be thrown at me through the cracks?
52782	What am I to do to- day?"
52782	What are you doing now?"
52782	What could the Little Master want at this early hour?
52782	What could the rest hope for if so fierce a creature as the White Pig could be disposed of in this fashion?
52782	What demon was this that had seized the White Grunter and was carrying him off?
52782	What does that mean?"
52782	What have you done with your hosses?"
52782	What living and moving creetur could build a fire in that thicket?
52782	What man am I to carry, Son of Ben Ali?"
52782	What then?
52782	What then?
52782	What was he up to?
52782	What was the rider''s errand?
52782	What was this going on right before his eyes?
52782	What yo''name, honey?"
52782	What''d I do out dar by myse''f at night?
52782	What''s to hinder you?
52782	What, then, was to be done?
52782	When did you come to like me so well?"
52782	When everything was ready, the question arose, how was the horse to be removed to his new quarters?
52782	When the time comes for the cart I shall have-- what do you call it?"
52782	Where did the nigger go?
52782	Where''ve you been?"
52782	Who are you, anyhow?"
52782	Who else would dare to hurt him, or even threaten to hurt him?
52782	Who is dat?
52782	Who knows?
52782	Who stopped him?"
52782	Who talked of turns where the Little Master was concerned?
52782	Who''s going to know where the fire is?"
52782	Who, then, but Abercrombie?
52782	Why could n''t the track dogs catch him?
52782	Why did he sit still and allow the runaway to go back to the woods?
52782	Why not stay here with me to- morrow, and the next day?"
52782	Why should I doubt your word?"
52782	Why should he go skimming along the red road at day dawn?
52782	Why, then, should a thin but steady stream of blue smoke be constantly rising upwards from the centre of Spivey''s Canebrake?
52782	Why, what on the face of the earth do you mean?
52782	Why?
52782	Why?
52782	Why?
52782	Will dey ketch you ef I tell?"
52782	Would Mr. Coon of the Swamp ever be caught on dry land?
52782	Would she hasten it?
52782	You ca n''t help seeing what''s right at you, can you?"
52782	You reckon he gwine ter foller you ter de landin''en den turn right''roun''in his tracks en go back?"
52782	You''d have Jim Simmons''s nigger dogs atter you, an''den what''d you do?"
52782	Your name, Son of Ben Ali?"
52782	[ Illustration: HE EDGED AWAY AS FAR AS HE COULD]"What is it?"
52782	[ Illustration: THE EXCITED HORSE PLUNGED ALONG]"Hurt much?"
52782	[ Illustration: THE HORSES WERE RIGHT AT HIS HEELS]"Is anybody ever see de beat er dat?"
52782	and"Whar you been, Little Marster, dat we ai n''t seed you sence day''fo''yistiddy?"
52782	he cried;"ai n''t he your nigger?
52782	he cried;"what queer country is this, where all the birds are headless?
52782	how can you put such an idea in the child''s mind?"
52782	insisted Mr. Jim Simmons with his careless, irritating drawl,"ai n''t it a plum''fact that this nigger''s been in the woods a month or sech a matter?
15265	A love affair--she paled with something like fear--"and I"--she started to speak, but could not--"I want to know what you think about Zora?"
15265	About darky schools?
15265	About how much?
15265	Ai n''t you got no money?
15265	All the truth?
15265	Always-- tell-- the truth?
15265	Am I? 15265 And Sanders?"
15265	And Zora?
15265	And cotton?
15265	And criticise the party?
15265	And culture and work?
15265	And do the people believe that?
15265	And how long have you been buying it?
15265	And if that strong influence were found?
15265	And is--she struggled at the word madly--"is she pure?"
15265	And kill the plantation system?
15265	And leave a pa''cel of niggers behind to shoot your lights out? 15265 And let your neighbor sell them poison at all hours?
15265	And more beautiful?
15265	And no appointment? 15265 And now,"he said,"Miss Wynn, what can I do for you?"
15265	And part of the price is putting the colored schools of the District in the hands of a Southern man and depriving us of all voice in their control?
15265	And say,as Easterly was turning away,"you know Congressman Smith?"
15265	And so you ca n''t leave?
15265	And the Board of Education abolished?
15265	And the other planters?
15265	And then?
15265	And these Cresswells today?
15265	And throw the rest of our capital after the fifty thousand dollars we''ve already lost?
15265	And what brings you to town afoot this time of day?
15265	And what shall you do?
15265	And what were you to pay for it?
15265	And what''s beyond the swamp?
15265	And where do you live, Buddy?
15265	And who is Elspeth?
15265	And why do you hate it?
15265	And why does she hold a lily?
15265	And will they all be represented?
15265	And with the teachers of it?
15265	And yet you will stay?
15265	And yonder to the west?
15265	And you are still friendly with him?
15265	And you?
15265	And, Zora, what way do you seek? 15265 Any witnesses?"
15265	Any witnesses?
15265	Are kisses illegal here?
15265	Are they honest and kind?
15265	Are they not hard working honest people?
15265	Are you going back there when you finish?
15265	Are you happy?
15265	Are you men fools, or rascals? 15265 Are you sure of the path, Zora?"
15265	Are you sure?
15265	Are you the-- er-- the man who had a letter to the Senator?
15265	Are you walking?
15265	Are you-- in a hurry, Miss Smith?
15265	As Treasurer?
15265	Aunt Rachel?
15265	Back, is she? 15265 Behind where the sun comes up?"
15265	Bigger?
15265	Black or white?
15265	Bles,she began didactically,"where are you from?"
15265	Bles,she cried,"how can I grow pure?"
15265	Bles,she said impulsively,"shall I tell you of the Golden Fleece?"
15265	Bles,she said primly,"have you absolutely no shame?"
15265	Brethren,he began,"the plan''s good enough for talkin''but you ca n''t work it; who ever heer''d tell of such a thing?
15265	But could n''t you hire some good workers?
15265	But did n''t you say they were engaged?
15265	But did n''t you settle at Christmas?
15265	But how about your raw material? 15265 But how can I know?"
15265	But how do they hope to make Mr. Alwyn blunder?
15265	But how shall we help him?
15265	But how''s cotton?
15265	But if she escapes, why not you?
15265	But if we can not trust to the justice of the case, and if you knew we could n''t, why did you try?
15265	But in the tenth case-- suppose he should stick to it?
15265	But is it necessary? 15265 But others-- a man''s a man, is n''t he?"
15265	But surely you did n''t join her in advocating that ten million people be menials?
15265	But that''s been decided, has n''t it?
15265	But the other gown?
15265	But the seed?
15265	But the unselfish work she does-- the utter sacrifice?
15265	But what do Teerswell and Stillings want?
15265	But what_ can_ turn up?
15265	But where are the houses?
15265	But where have you sent them?
15265	But where is it?
15265	But where is it?
15265	But who gave it to you?
15265	But why do n''t the planters do something?
15265	But why is lies evil?
15265	But why prolong the thing?
15265	But you believe in some education?
15265	But you mean to say you ca n''t even advise her?
15265	But, Mrs. Vanderpool,she protested,"is it right?
15265	But, Zora, must you folk ape our nonsense as well as our sense?
15265	But,--presently,--"how can we sell it without the Cresswells knowing?"
15265	But-- I do n''t understand, Miss Smith-- why ca n''t you accept my offer?
15265	But-- but I thought they had already started to work a crop on the Tolliver place?
15265	But-- but how are-- all?
15265	But-- but, dear Mrs. Vanderpool, you would n''t want your children trained that way, would you?
15265	But-- will he?
15265	By the bye, I met some charming Alabama people last winter, in Montgomery-- the Cresswells; do you know them?
15265	Ca n''t I have the girl Zora?
15265	Called?
15265	Can I go?
15265	Can I speak with you a moment, Colonel?
15265	Can it be, Bles Alwyn,she said,"that you do n''t know the sort of girl she is?"
15265	Can you not stop and see some of the classes?
15265	Can you put trust in that sort of help?
15265	Can you?
15265	Cash?
15265	Colton,he asked,"are you sending any of your white children to the nigger school yet?"
15265	Come, is you? 15265 Cotton is a wonderful thing, is it not, boys?"
15265	Could I buy a lunch from the dining- car?
15265	Could I help?
15265	Could I trust you with a human soul?
15265	Could she pass?
15265	Did Helene attend the ball four years ago?
15265	Did he say he meant to sign such a contract?
15265	Did n''t I tell you there was lots to learn?
15265	Did n''t you know that this Child Labor business was opposed to my interests?
15265	Did you get that novel for me, Harry?
15265	Did you know that he is to be invited to make the principal address to the graduates of the colored high- school?
15265	Did you make that pin?
15265	Did you see Colonel Cresswell sign this paper?
15265	Did you suggest anything?
15265	Do crazy folks forget?
15265	Do fools like the American people deserve salvation?
15265	Do n''t white folks make books?
15265	Do n''t you hate the deception?
15265	Do n''t you know that Colonel Cresswell will attach our cotton for rent as soon as it touches the warehouse?
15265	Do n''t you know that is a wicked, bad habit?
15265	Do n''t you know we''re not going to interfere with Colonel Cresswell''s tenants?
15265	Do n''t you see,he said angrily,"that that will ruin our plans for the Cotton Combine?"
15265	Do n''t_ you_ want to be different?
15265	Do they get that-- ten cents an hour?
15265	Do you ever tell lies, Zora?
15265	Do you go to school?
15265	Do you happen to have any whiskey handy?
15265	Do you hear the bodies creaking on the limbs? 15265 Do you know how?"
15265	Do you know me?
15265	Do you know my people? 15265 Do you know no one in town?"
15265	Do you live about here?
15265	Do you live in Washington?
15265	Do you mean it?
15265	Do you mean to intimate that Mr. Alwyn''s appointment is held up because he is colored?
15265	Do you mean to say he''s actually slated for the place?
15265	Do you mean to say that you are going to keep in this school a girl who not only lies and steals but is positively--_immoral_?
15265	Do you s''pose mammy''s the witch?
15265	Do you stay there now?
15265	Do you work for pay?
15265	Does he furnish you rations?
15265	Does he?
15265	Does she think them immodest?
15265	Does you own the land?
15265	Does you want-- a collection?
15265	Does, eh? 15265 Dreams?"
15265	Enough to marry me?
15265	Even if it hurts me?
15265	Except who?
15265	First, there''s England-- and all Europe; why not bring them into the trust?
15265	For what? 15265 General philanthropy?"
15265	Gentleman is asking if you forgits it''s Saturday night, sir?
15265	God is the father of all the little babies, ai n''t He, Bles?
15265	Goobers?
15265	Good white folk?
15265	Got my letter?
15265	H''m, they''re way behind, are n''t they? 15265 Harry, will you do me a favor?"
15265	Hate what?
15265	Have I shocked you?
15265	Have n''t I a right to have a gun?
15265	Have you been in your sitting- room?
15265	Have you got the deed?
15265	Have you had the civil- service examinations?
15265	Have you heard of the Vanderpools?
15265	Have you hired a maid?
15265	Have you many settlements?
15265	Have you never heard of the Golden Fleece, Bles?
15265	Have you seen Senator Smith yet?
15265	Have you seen the Easterlys?
15265	He deserved it, did n''t he?
15265	He''s a fair God, ai n''t He?
15265	Heavenly Father, was man ever before set to such a task?
15265	Helen?
15265	Helps folks that they love? 15265 Here you, Jim, take the big mules and drive like-- Where''s that wench?"
15265	Hired?
15265	How about fighting for exercise?
15265	How am I to know this is true?
15265	How dare you?
15265	How do you do, Miss Smith?
15265	How do you mean?
15265	How do you spell that?
15265	How does_ you_ know He does?
15265	How is my sister?
15265	How long before the stalks will be ready to cut?
15265	How much is that?
15265	How much of it?
15265	How much-- farther will it drop?
15265	How much?
15265	How so?
15265	How you know?
15265	How''s his cotton?
15265	How''s the school getting on?
15265	How?
15265	How?
15265	How?
15265	I beg pardon, does the Miss Wynn live here who got the prize in the art exhibition?
15265	I beg your pardon?
15265	I do hope the thing can be managed, but--"What are the difficulties?
15265	I do n''t suppose you know any one who is acquainted with any number of these Northern darkies?
15265	I hate it, Bles, do n''t you?
15265	I mean, what work?
15265	I mean, would the Cresswells approve of educating Negroes?
15265	I see-- everybody is raising his price, is he? 15265 I suppose my salary would stop?"
15265	I suppose you hear from the school?
15265	I think they are; but-- well, you know Carrie Wynn better than I do: suppose, now-- suppose he should lose the appointment?
15265	I thought it was the lazy, shiftless, and criminal Negroes, you feared?
15265	I wonder what I shall make out of her?
15265	I''m driving round through the old plantation,he explained;"wo n''t you join me?"
15265	I''ve gambled-- before; I''ve gambled on cards and on horses; I''ve gambled-- for money-- and-- women-- but--"But not on cotton, hey? 15265 I-- er-- came; that is, I believe you sent a group to the art exhibit?"
15265	I-- er-- meant to ask if Colonel Cresswell, in signing this paper, meant to sign a contract to sell this wench two hundred acres of land?
15265	If not I, who?
15265	In your dark lives,he cried,"_ who_ is the King of Glory?
15265	Inclined to be a little nasty?
15265	Indeed? 15265 Indeed?
15265	Indeed?
15265	Indeed?
15265	Is it off?
15265	Is it ready, Zora?
15265	Is it wrong,asked Zora,"to make believe you likes people when you do n''t, when you''se afeared of them and thinks they may rub off and dirty you?"
15265	Is it? 15265 Is it?--is it?"
15265	Is it?--is it?
15265	Is n''t Bles developing splendidly?
15265	Is n''t it so-- anywhere?
15265	Is n''t the census building wretched?
15265	Is she very sick?
15265	Is that all?
15265	Is that so?
15265	Is that wrong?
15265	Is that you, Smith?
15265	Is the Congressional business very heavy?
15265	Is there any water near?
15265	Is there anything in Washington that the South does not already own?
15265	Is this a new gag?
15265	Is this about this?
15265	Is you afeared, honey?
15265	Is-- is anything the matter?
15265	It is so late and wet and you''re tired tonight-- don''t you think you''d better sleep in your little room?
15265	Jim Sykes?
15265	Just begun?
15265	Just what is your plan?
15265	Know dem? 15265 Like it?
15265	Look like a fool, do I?
15265	Mary, has that Alwyn nigger been here this afternoon?
15265	Me? 15265 Mean?
15265	Miss Smith''s school?
15265	Miss Smith, how much money have you?
15265	Miss Smith, is yo''got a speller fo''ten cents?
15265	Miss Smith, is yo''got just a drap of coffee to lend me? 15265 Miss Smith, who do you think has been here?"
15265	Miss Smith, would Jim do to drive?
15265	Miss-- Wynn?
15265	Mr. Cresswell would be their local representative?
15265	Mr. Taylor, have you any money in this?
15265	Mr. Taylor,said the lawyer carelessly,"were you present at this transaction?"
15265	Mrs. Grey talked to you much?
15265	Must you do as he wants?
15265	My God-- it walks-- like my wife-- I tell you-- she held her head so-- who is it?
15265	My people?--my people?
15265	Never?
15265	Never?
15265	No,he pressed her,"with your bargain?"
15265	No-- well, what can I do for you?
15265	No-- what?
15265	Now what the devil does this mean?
15265	Now, Bles,she began,"since we understand each other, can we not work together as good friends?"
15265	Now, about the niggers,the chairman had asked;"how much more boodle do they want?"
15265	Now, what do you know,she asked finally,"about Negroes-- about educating them?"
15265	Now, what have you got there?
15265	Now, what''s his game?
15265	Of Colonel Cresswell?
15265	Oh, you''ve noted it, too?--his friendship for that impossible girl, Zora?
15265	Ought I to tell? 15265 Our success?"
15265	Promise you wo n''t tell?
15265	Really, now, you do not mean to say that there is a danger of-- of amalgamation, do you?
15265	Robert, where is the land Cresswell offers you?
15265	Said that, did he?
15265	Sam, is it? 15265 Say, Harry, how about that darky, Sykes?"
15265	Say,he whispered another time,"do n''t you want to buy these gold spectacles?
15265	See those boys over there? 15265 Sell it?
15265	She gets a salary, does n''t she?
15265	She lives in the swamp-- she''s a kind of witch, I reckon, like-- like--"Like Medea?
15265	So''m I,answered the boy, fumbling at his bundle; and then, timidly:"Will you eat with me?"
15265	So? 15265 So?
15265	Some time you''ll tell me, please, wo n''t you?
15265	Something political?
15265	Still thinking of going, are you, Sam?
15265	Stillings?
15265	Stuff?
15265	Surely there must be many friends of our race willing to stand for the right and sacrifice for it?
15265	Taylor, what does this mean?
15265	The Cresswells?
15265	The Silver Fleece?
15265	The Tolliver place?
15265	The brotherhood of man?
15265	The snake-- what is he?
15265	The world?
15265	Then what''s the use of seeing the world?
15265	Then why do they go?
15265	Then you can leave the place, Zora?
15265	Then you care-- for me?
15265	Then you lies sometimes, do n''t you?
15265	There are so many ahead of me and I am in a hurry to get to my school; but I must see the Senator-- couldn''t I go in with you? 15265 There''s something in it,"he admitted,"but what can we do?
15265	They are-- wealthy people?
15265	They may accommodate you-- how much would you want?
15265	They want us to revive the Farmers''League?
15265	This is a great cotton country?
15265	Tickets?
15265	Tightening up on the tenants?
15265	To be sure,she murmured,"but what sort of folks?"
15265	Todd asks: Who is Vanderpool, anyhow? 15265 Todd just let fall something of a combination against us in Congress-- know anything of it?"
15265	Tolerable, how are you?
15265	True; but ca n''t we force them to it?
15265	Two hundred acres? 15265 Want to go?"
15265	Was n''t what I said true?
15265	Was she pretty?
15265	Was the child born dead?
15265	We wo n''t work any more today, then?
15265	We''se both crazy, ai n''t we?
15265	We''ve cornered the market all right-- cornered it-- d''ye hear, Cresswell? 15265 We?"
15265	Well, I wants to see Mr. Harry very much; could I wait in the back hall?
15265	Well, Uncle Jim, why are n''t you at work?
15265	Well, Zora, what have you there?
15265	Well, all right, if--"Harry, I feel a little-- hysterical, tonight, and-- you will not refuse me, will you, Harry?
15265	Well, are you all moved, Aunt Rachel?
15265	Well, are you getting things in shape so as to enter school early next year?
15265	Well, did he intend so far as you know to sign such a paper?
15265	Well, nigger, what are you going to do about it?
15265	Well, sir?
15265	Well, what do you want?
15265	Well, what do you want?
15265	Well, what is it?
15265	Well, what then?
15265	Well, who''d have dreamed it?
15265	Well, why do n''t you go to the office?
15265	Well,asked Cresswell, maintaining his composure by an effort,"how are things?"
15265	Well,shortly,"now for that talk-- ready?"
15265	Well?
15265	Were they kind to their slaves?
15265	What Smith?
15265	What about Johnson?
15265	What are prospects in March? 15265 What are you going to do with it?"
15265	What bargain?
15265	What can I do for you?
15265	What can I do to help you?
15265	What can I do?
15265	What can be done with Negroes?
15265	What damned mummery is this?
15265	What did you disagree about?
15265	What do the colored people want, and who can best influence them in this campaign?
15265	What do you do?
15265	What do you mean?
15265	What does Miss Wynn do for a living?
15265	What does it amount to a year?
15265	What does she intend to do?
15265	What else?
15265	What for?
15265	What for?
15265	What for?
15265	What is Todd''s bill?
15265	What is it?
15265	What is it?
15265	What is planted over there?
15265	What is the matter, Bles?
15265	What is the matter, Zora?
15265	What is the matter, Zora?
15265	What is the world like?
15265	What is your plan?
15265	What kinds?
15265	What of it? 15265 What of it?"
15265	What of them?
15265	What pin?
15265	What shall we offer him?
15265	What sort of people are the Cresswells?
15265	What the hell are you going to do?
15265	What was the trouble?
15265	What will you say in your speech?
15265	What would the interest be?
15265	What would you expect as pay?
15265	What would you have? 15265 What you run for?"
15265	What!--and no appointment?
15265	What''s a shame?
15265	What''s over there?
15265	What''s that got to do with it?
15265	What''s that?
15265	What''s that?
15265	What''s that?
15265	What''s that?
15265	What''s that?
15265	What''s that?
15265	What''s the charge here?
15265	What''s the matter, Rob?
15265	What''s the matter?
15265	What''s the use, Miss Smith-- what opening is there for a-- a nigger with an education?
15265	What''s this nigger charged with?
15265	What''s this stuff about the Civic Club?
15265	What''s this?
15265	What''s your name?
15265	What-- what did you do?
15265	What?
15265	What?
15265	What?
15265	What?
15265	When we cry they mock us; they ruin our women and debauch our children-- what shall we do? 15265 When?"
15265	Where can we buy them?
15265	Where did this come from?
15265	Where did you get it?
15265	Where did you get these facts?
15265	Where does it go?
15265	Where does this road come out?
15265	Where have you been?
15265	Where is it?
15265	Where is she now?
15265	Where is she?
15265	Where is the deed?
15265	Where now, Zora?
15265	Where shall I put these?
15265	Where to, Madame?
15265	Where you going?
15265	Where''s Zora?
15265	Where''s that?
15265	Where''s your lawyer?
15265	Where''s-- Nell''s?
15265	Where?
15265	Where?
15265	Where?
15265	Which would the South prefer-- Todd''s Education Bill, or Alwyn''s appointment?
15265	Who is dis what talks of doing the Lord''s work for Him? 15265 Who is he?"
15265	Who is he?
15265	Who is it, and what do you want?
15265	Who is it?
15265	Who''ll be the committee?
15265	Who''s John Taylor?
15265	Who''s a- feared of the dark? 15265 Who''s going to get what''s made on this land?"
15265	Who''s going to tend this land?
15265	Who''s going to work on the place?
15265	Who''s running it?
15265	Who''s speaking?
15265	Who''s that?
15265	Who''s that?
15265	Who''s that?
15265	Who''s that?
15265	Who''s this?
15265	Who?
15265	Whom?
15265	Whose child is this?
15265	Whose is that?
15265	Whose work is this, Senator?
15265	Why did n''t you tell me?
15265	Why did you send your exhibit when you knew it was not wanted?
15265	Why did you speak so to Miss Taylor?
15265	Why do you say these things?
15265	Why is it yours?
15265	Why not bigger?
15265	Why not make a speech on the subject?
15265	Why not, then, admit that you draw the color- line?
15265	Why not?
15265	Why not?
15265	Why should it be?
15265	Why should n''t people do anything they wants to?
15265	Why should we trust him?
15265	Why, Aunt Rachel, how are you?
15265	Why, Bles, what''s the matter?
15265	Why, Zora?
15265	Why, certainly,Mrs. Vanderpool agreed, and then curiously:"What?"
15265	Why, dangerous?
15265	Why, how do you do, Robert?
15265	Why, it''s civil- service, is n''t it?
15265	Why, one must live; and why not be happy?
15265	Why, what''s there?
15265	Why, yes--faltered Miss Taylor;"but-- wouldn''t that be difficult?"
15265	Why,he said at length,"are n''t you promoting it?"
15265	Why,in abrupt recognition,"it is our Venus of the Roadside, is it not?"
15265	Why? 15265 Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Will it take long?
15265	Will you come to hear me?
15265	With his bargain?
15265	With that hair?
15265	Wo n''t you come in?
15265	Wo n''t you try?
15265	Work? 15265 Would Bles care if I told?"
15265	Would it not be worth a fight?
15265	Yes, but ought you to tell them?
15265	Yes, this is it-- good- bye-- I must--"Wait-- what is your name?
15265	Yes-- but back of it all, what is it really? 15265 Yes?"
15265	You are a stranger?
15265	You are interested in bronzes?
15265	You are worse, father?
15265	You can depend on Taylor, of course?
15265	You do n''t mean that any one can advise a black man to vote the Democratic ticket?
15265	You had quite forgotten what you were waiting for-- isn''t that so, Sis?
15265	You know the Cresswells, then?
15265	You know the people pretty well, then?
15265	You mean it will stand in law?
15265	You mean the Smiths of Boston?
15265	You mean you can pay what we ask?
15265	You mean youse gwine to git yo''livin''off it?
15265	You remember our visit to Senator Smith?
15265	You wished to see-- Caroline Wynn?
15265	You would not like me to act dishonestly, would you?
15265	You''d let a nigger vote?
15265	You''ve found some things worth knowing in this world, have n''t you, Zora?
15265	Zora,he said,"sometimes you tell lies, do n''t you?"
15265	Zora,she faltered,"will you leave me?"
15265	Zora,she presently broke into the girl''s absorption,"how would you like to be Ambassador to France?"
15265	Zora,she said evenly,"why did n''t you come to class when I called?"
15265	Zora--he gasped,"how-- how did you do it?"
15265	Zora? 15265 Zora?"
15265	_ The_ problem, you mean?
15265	A horror crept over Mary Cresswell: where had she lived that she had seen so little before?
15265	After all why should he care?
15265	After all, he kept saying to himself, what guarantee, what knowledge had he that this was not a"damned Yankee trick"?
15265	After all, which was worse-- a Cresswell or an Alwyn?
15265	After all, why should n''t it be?
15265	Ai n''t that all?"
15265	Always before she had been veiled from these folk: who had put the veil there?
15265	Alwyn?"
15265	Alwyn?"
15265	And Bles-- was Miss Taylor deceived?--or was he chuckling?
15265	And Carrie Wynn-- poor Carrie, with her pride and position dragged down in his ruin: how would she take it?
15265	And how much have you paid a year?"
15265	And if it were?
15265	And suppose I had?"
15265	And then, brightening, he asked gayly:"And we''ll be friends always, wo n''t we?"
15265	And who could furnish that illumination better than Zora, the calm, methodical Zora, who knew them so well?
15265	And why are you afraid for her?"
15265	And why not?"
15265	And yet, once in the hands of these past- masters of debt- manipulation, would her school be safe?
15265	And yet, why should she hesitate?
15265	And you graduated, I suppose, and all that?"
15265	And, Sam, ca n''t you find us a sandwich and something cool?
15265	Anything on?"
15265	Are you blind?
15265	Are you dumb?
15265	Are you willing to try?"
15265	Are you?"
15265	As the black porter passed her she said gently:"Is smoking allowed in here?"
15265	As the two white riders approached the buggy one said to the other:"Who''s that nigger with?"
15265	At any rate, who was better?
15265	At last, however, she said happily to Zora:"Well, the battle''s over, is n''t it?"
15265	Aye, face it boldly-- what?
15265	Bles, where was he?
15265	But Bles asked coldly:"Why did n''t you have him arrested?"
15265	But before?"
15265	But could she do it?
15265	But could she live?
15265	But did he desire her as a wife?
15265	But do you know I like the girl?
15265	But do you know that we''re encountering opposition from the most unexpected source?"
15265	But how about the Smith School?
15265	But how had it been saved?
15265	But if she talked again of mere men would these devotees listen?
15265	But if she went there what would she see and do, and would it be possible to become such a woman as Miss Smith pictured?
15265	But if she were especially invited?
15265	But it does n''t, does it?"
15265	But these are not my children, they are the children of Negroes; we ca n''t quite forget that, can we?"
15265	But to Miss Taylor:"I beg pardon-- er-- Miss Smith?"
15265	But what did I say so funny?"
15265	But what does it matter?
15265	But what of that?
15265	But who?
15265	But why lonely?
15265	But would she make a satisfactory maid?
15265	But, pshaw!--he poured himself a glass of brandy-- was he not rich and young?
15265	By the way, what did that letter say about a''sister''?"
15265	Ca n''t we keep wages where we like by threatening to bring in nigger labor?"
15265	Can you be ready by eleven?"
15265	Child?
15265	Could it be possible that all unconsciously she had dared dream a forbidden dream?
15265	Could it be that this Negro had dared to misunderstand her-- had presumed?
15265	Could she be brought back to a useful life?
15265	Cresswell?"
15265	Cresswell?"
15265	Cresswell?"
15265	Did God ask that, too?
15265	Did John think she had nothing else to do?
15265	Did colored people attend the ball?
15265	Did he know of the mortgage, too?
15265	Did he understand?
15265	Did n''t you see her while she was here?
15265	Did she intend to exhibit?
15265	Did she want him to find her?
15265	Did you notice how unhealthy the children looked?
15265	Do n''t they ever get there?"
15265	Do n''t we own the mill?
15265	Do n''t you remember those fine bales of cotton that came out of there several seasons ago?"
15265	Do n''t you see the two schemes ca n''t mix?
15265	Do n''t you see you''re planning to cut off your noses?
15265	Do n''t you want to come up and help me look?"
15265	Do you dance and laugh, and hear and see not?
15265	Do you expect to buy that land for five dollars an acre?"
15265	Do you know the man that stands ready to gobble up every inch of cotton land in this country at a price which no trust can hope to rival?"
15265	Do you know-- I''ve wondered if-- quite unconciously, it is you?
15265	Do you think the plantation system can be maintained without laborers?
15265	Does n''t Cresswell know this?"
15265	Does one"appeal"to the red- eyed beast that throttles him?
15265	Dr. Boldish, naturally the appointed spokesman, looked helplessly about and whispered to Mrs. Vanderpool:"What on earth shall I talk about?"
15265	Ever met him?"
15265	Faith without works is dead; who is you that dares to set and wait for the Lord to do your work?"
15265	Fight?
15265	Find out for us just what this revolt is, how far it goes, and what good men we can get to swing the darkies into line-- see?"
15265	From the other side the words came distinctly and clearly:"--other children, doctor?"
15265	From these Southerners?"
15265	Glad?
15265	Had Mrs. Stillings heard of the new art movement?
15265	Had Zora thought of them?
15265	Had he dreamed?
15265	Had he seen a haunt?
15265	Had it been real?
15265	Had she herself hung it before her soul, or had they hidden timidly behind its other side?
15265	Had she met this stately ceremony with enough breeding to show that she too was somebody?
15265	Had you heard?"
15265	Harry Cresswell laid his hand on his father''s arm and said quietly:"And where do we come in?"
15265	Harry Cresswell was not a bad man-- are there any bad men?
15265	Has John written you?"
15265	Have I got a little of the year''s wage coming to me?"
15265	Have I made my clothes and food?
15265	Have I paid my old debts to you?
15265	Have you a young man named Alwyn on your eligible list?
15265	Have you seen this?"
15265	He bent to her fiercely:"Who?"
15265	He frowned as he noted the footprints pointing to Elspeth''s-- what did Mary Taylor want there?
15265	He had not thought that white people had such troubles; yet, he reflected, why not?
15265	He leaned against his hoe and talked half dreamily-- where had he learned so well that dream- talk?
15265	He watched her silently, till, waking from her daydream, she abruptly asked:"Where you from?"
15265	Helen regarded her brother through her veiling lashes: what meant this sudden assumption of warmth and amiability?
15265	Her heart answered back:"What is impossible to youth and resolution?"
15265	Her little hands groped and wandered over his close- curled hair, and she sobbed, deep voiced:"Will you-- marry me, Bles?"
15265	His voice came slow and firm:"Emma?
15265	Hit''s hot, ai n''t it?
15265	How could she find out?
15265	How dares the black puppy to ignore a Cresswell on the highway?
15265	How goes the great battle for black men''s rights?
15265	How is she, and where?"
15265	How is you?"
15265	How large is your place?"
15265	How much had Mrs. Cresswell ever known of Zora?
15265	How much?
15265	I do n''t like work-- do you?"
15265	I found''em and I dassen''t sell''em open, see?
15265	I hope John''s well?"
15265	I said:"''Judge, a friend is expecting me at two,''it was then half- past one,''would I not best telephone?''"
15265	I wanted to go in the trap-- take me?"
15265	I was so afraid he would miss it and think that Right did n''t win in Life, that I wrote him--""You wrote him?
15265	I wonder if I''m selling my birthright for six thousand dollars?"
15265	I''d marry Carrie-- but how can I help you?"
15265	I''ll put stuff into him that''ll make him wave the bloody shirt at the next meeting of the Bethel Literary-- see?
15265	If his intense belief happened to be popular, all right; but if not?
15265	If it failed, would not they fail?
15265	If she was not careful--"But what is it you want?"
15265	If the former, how far could they trust him; if the latter, what was his game?
15265	If this went on, the day would surely come when Negroes felt no respect or fear whatever for whites?
15265	If, now, you could drop a word here and there--""But why should I?"
15265	In that time what had happened?
15265	In the parlor and have the servants astounded and talking?
15265	In town?"
15265	In vain her shrewd New England reason asked:"What can a half- taught black girl do in this wilderness?"
15265	Is it fair-- to the children?"
15265	Is it fair?
15265	Is it yo''s?"
15265	Is it you, little wife, come back to accuse me?
15265	Is n''t that your idea, Miss Smith?"
15265	Is that an excuse for saying it?"
15265	Is that woman''s brother going to spend this money?
15265	Is that you, Mr. Cole?
15265	It might rain only an hour or so, but, suppose it should rain a day-- two days-- a week?
15265	It occurred to her that she had heard that name before-- but where?
15265	It seemed to her that every breeze and branch was instinct with sympathy, and murmuring,"What''s the use?"
15265	It was all right, and yet why so suddenly had the threads of life let go?
15265	Mary?"
15265	Mr. Cresswell says they own almost no land here; think of it?
15265	Mrs. Vanderpool was right: culture and-- some masses, at least-- were not to be linked; and, too, culture and work-- were they incompatible?
15265	Must I study five years?"
15265	Must she live?
15265	My father writes me that they are showing signs of expecting money right off-- is that true?
15265	New York?"
15265	No spontaneity either-- rather languid, did you notice?
15265	Nothing?
15265	Now here,_ every_thing seems to be happening; but what is it that is happening?"
15265	Now, I wonder where they got the music?
15265	Now, have n''t you a girl about here who would do?"
15265	Now, if I get the job, how would you like to be my assistant?"
15265	On the porch and have Mr. Maxwell ride up?
15265	Or had it been some witch- vision of the night, come to tempt and lure him to his undoing?
15265	Or was it simply a brute fact, regardless of both of them?
15265	Or was the elf- girl real?
15265	Or, was he happy?
15265	Our?--was_ our_ right?
15265	Perhaps a mortgage on the strength of the endowment?
15265	See?
15265	Senator Smith regarded him again: was Cresswell playing a shrewd game?
15265	Shall I make him an enemy?
15265	Shall I resign and beg, or go tilting at windmills?
15265	Shall I try in addition to reform?
15265	She answered dully, groping for words, for she was tired:"Who is it?"
15265	She continued after a pause:"May I venture to ask a favor of you?"
15265	She did not expect this, but she asked the porter:"Do you know where I can get a lunch?"
15265	She dreamed and sang over that dark field, and again and again appealed to him:"S''pose it should n''t come up after all?"
15265	She felt impelled to go forward and ask-- what?
15265	She had thought of him as a boy-- an old student, a sort of confidential servant; but what had he thought?
15265	She held her burning head-- was not everything plain?
15265	She helped herself to a chocolate and called out musically:"Pa, are you going to town today?"
15265	She must be sent to boarding- school, somewhere far away; but the money?
15265	She must offer this unsullied soul up unto God in mighty atonement-- but how?
15265	She rang the bell, asking the trim black maid:"Is there a person named Caroline Wynn living in this house?"
15265	She seemed to feel rather than hear his presence, and she inquired softly:"Who''s it, Bles?"
15265	She smiled and said sweetly,"Wo n''t you sit?"
15265	She tried to think it out: what could have happened?
15265	She was thinking rapidly-- Was this the Way?
15265	She wondered how she had done her part-- had she been too eager and school- girlish?
15265	She''ll be reasonable, wo n''t she, and placate the Cresswells?...
15265	She''s planning to call some day-- shall you be at home?"
15265	Should he be one?
15265	Somewhat to Miss Taylor''s surprise Miss Smith said nothing until they were parting for the night, then she asked:"Was Miss Cresswell at home?"
15265	Successful?
15265	Suppose Mr. Alwyn should take this occasion to make a thorough defence of the party?"
15265	Suppose he asked Caroline Wynn to help him in this case?
15265	Suppose such a conjunction should come to pass?
15265	Teerswell nodded and said:"Well, what do you think of last night?"
15265	That''s the way it is now, see?
15265	The Negroes are not, then, very efficient?"
15265	The Silver Fleece, how was it?
15265	The Sun, the Swamp?
15265	The World, the great mysterious World, that stretched beyond the swamp and into which Bles and the Silver Fleece had gone-- did it lead to the Way?
15265	The lagoon had been level with the dykes a week ago; and now?
15265	The swamp, the eternal swamp, had been drained in its deepest fastness; but, how?--how?
15265	The teacher in Miss Taylor strove to rebuke this unconventional greeting but the woman in her spoke first and asked almost before she knew it--"Why?"
15265	The way where?"
15265	Then Mary Taylor, whose conscience was uncomfortable, said:"But, Mr. Cresswell, you surely believe in schools like Miss Smith''s?"
15265	Then Miss Taylor said, absently:"Zora, what do you propose to do when you grow up?"
15265	Then after a pause:"When will you go, Zora?"
15265	Then faint and fainter whisperings: what could be worse than death?
15265	Then he said:"Colonel Cresswell, who drew this contract of sale?"
15265	Then in sudden fury,"Ye generation of vipers-- who kin save you?"
15265	Then she said dreamily:"We''se known us all our lives, and-- before, ai n''t we?"
15265	Then there was Zora; what had she said and hinted to Mary?
15265	Then what?
15265	Then with a puzzled look:"I wonder why?"
15265	They ca n''t concentrate; notice how some slept when Dr. Boldish was speaking?
15265	Treat Alwyn well and call on Miss Wynn as usual-- see?"
15265	Used to be one of our servants-- you remember?
15265	Usually, while he played at loving, women grovelled; for was he not a Cresswell?
15265	Was Cresswell back of Taylor?
15265	Was Death the Way-- the wide, dark Way?
15265	Was Elspeth now at peace?
15265	Was it all straight, or did the whole move conceal a trick?
15265	Was it not a rather dangerous experiment?
15265	Was it not the King''s Highway?
15265	Was it possible that the price of Alwyn''s manhood would be her husband''s appointment to Paris?
15265	Was not everything clear?
15265	Was there a change, sudden, cataclysmic?
15265	Was there, after all, some"nigger- loving"conspiracy back of the cotton combine?
15265	Was this rain beating down and back her love for him, or had she never loved?
15265	Was this--"Nell''s"?
15265	We''ll get this committee which Taylor suggests appointed, and send it on a junket to Alabama; you do the rest-- see?"
15265	We''ll put the cotton inspection bill through in the last days of the session-- see?
15265	Well, I''m going to give you some money-- do you know why?"
15265	Well, why has he no appointment?
15265	What a world it was, and after all how far was this black boy wrong?
15265	What did he care?
15265	What did he ever do?
15265	What did she think?
15265	What do you propose?"
15265	What does de good Book say?
15265	What does it look like?"
15265	What else could she have dreamed?
15265	What for?"
15265	What good will it do?"
15265	What had happened?
15265	What had happened?
15265	What kind of a woman was Zora now?
15265	What must he pay for success?
15265	What new force was he loosening against his black folk-- his own black folk, who had lived about him and his fathers nigh three hundred years?
15265	What of the morning?
15265	What school?"
15265	What should she do?
15265	What time?"
15265	What was Washington, and what was this fine, tall, quiet residence?
15265	What was he to her?
15265	What was she doing?
15265	What was the use of trying for anything?
15265	What was"Nell''s"?
15265	What would Elspeth do?
15265	What would happen to her?
15265	What would they say if he failed to get the office?
15265	What''s a maid?"
15265	What''s your name?"
15265	What?
15265	When shall I begin?"
15265	Where can we get land, with Cresswell owning every inch and bound to destroy us?"
15265	Where had Mrs. Cresswell seen her before?
15265	Where had she known him?
15265	Where is it?
15265	Where should she receive him?
15265	Where was that black and flaming cabin?
15265	Where was the girl-- the soul that had called him?
15265	Where was the poor spoiled woman?
15265	Where was the use of imagining?
15265	Where was"Nell''s"?
15265	Where, Zora?
15265	Where, and what mark?"
15265	Who ever heer''d of such working land on shares?"
15265	Who had rushed the news to this woman?
15265	Who was caring for her, and what was she doing?
15265	Who was doing it?
15265	Who was he to falter when she called?
15265	Who was he to stand and judge this unselfish woman?
15265	Who was putting her to bed and smoothing the pillow?
15265	Who would win-- the witch, or Jason?
15265	Who''s responsible?"
15265	Who, then, should be nominated?
15265	Whom do you think that''s for?"
15265	Why had he not known?
15265	Why had he not stood his ground?
15265	Why had it not occurred to her before in her blindness?
15265	Why had neither Mary nor John Taylor mentioned this?
15265	Why had she asked for her?
15265	Why had she asked for this girl?
15265	Why had she not bound him to her?
15265	Why had they not let her see the child-- just one look at its little dead face?
15265	Why had they stolen from her?
15265	Why is you trying to make dis ole world better?
15265	Why not go back to the South where she had gone?
15265	Why not go see him?
15265	Why not send Zora?
15265	Why not take this young man in hand and make a Negro leader of him-- a protagonist of ten millions?
15265	Why not?
15265	Why should he be elbowed into the roadside dust by an insolent bully?
15265	Why should he not be as other men?
15265	Why should he pose as better than his fellows?
15265	Why should not he go back, too?
15265	Why should we who have sacrifice the substance for the shadow?"
15265	Why should you spoil this black girl and put impossible ideas into her head?
15265	Why was it?
15265	Why was she drifting in vast waters; in uncharted wastes of sea?
15265	Why was she restless and vaguely ill at ease so often these days?
15265	Why were her eyes wet today and her mind on the Silver Fleece?
15265	Why worry with more?"
15265	Why, are you daft?
15265	Why?
15265	Why?
15265	Will you go South with Mr. Cresswell?
15265	Will you go?"
15265	Will you hear?
15265	Will you marry me?"
15265	Wo n''t you take a stand on some of these progressive matters-- this bill, or the Child Labor movement, or Low Tariff legislation?"
15265	Would Rob become a tenant when she asked?
15265	Would Uncle Isaac help her build a log home?
15265	Would Zora make one or would this blow send her to perdition?
15265	Would he be amenable to her training and become worldly wise?
15265	Would not comradeship on the basis of the new friendship which she insisted on, be the death of love and thoughts of love?
15265	Would she go?
15265	Would she, could she, lay aside her pride and cynicism, her dainty ways and little extravagances?
15265	Would the boys help her some time to clear some swamp land?
15265	Would they fall?
15265	Would this woman recognize that fact and respect him accordingly?
15265	Would you like it?"
15265	Yes-- how about Mrs. Grey''s education schemes?...
15265	Yes?"
15265	Yet how should she do it?
15265	You can wheel the planters into line-- will you do it?"
15265	You do n''t really expect to keep the darkies down forever, do you?"
15265	You never had a witch for a mammy-- did you?"
15265	You remember that day when Mr. Easterly called?"
15265	You see?
15265	You surely remember that awful scarlet dress?
15265	_ Eleven_ THE FLOWERING OF THE FLEECE"Zora,"observed Miss Smith,"it''s a great blessing not to need spectacles, is n''t it?"
15265	_ Thirty- one_ A PARTING OF WAYS"Was the child born dead?"
15265	bang!_"Who''s that?"
15265	do n''t you love to be frank and open?"
15265	inwardly commented Miss Taylor--"literally born in cotton, and-- Oh, well,"as much as to ask,"What''s the use?"
15265	it is n''t as bad as that all over the world, is it?"
15265	now where is that paper?"
15265	on Saturday?"
15265	vaguely--"dreams?
15265	was not all her life simply the want of him?--why had she not bound him to her when he had offered himself?
15265	where do you teach?"
15265	where is she?
21306	A bullet?
21306	Ah, but is it a man?
21306	Ah, why not?
21306	And are you going to try for another in one of the pipes over the other side?
21306	And burned the whole forest down?
21306	And did you see it, mester?
21306	And do the people about seem as dissatisfied as ever about the work?
21306	And go out?
21306	And going back, father?
21306	And he told my father?
21306	And heard and saw nothing of the fire?
21306	And hit them, Dave?
21306	And how are we to get back?
21306	And how''s your lame arm, mester?
21306	And not leave me in the lurch, Mr Winthorpe?
21306	And rabbits too?
21306	And shoot me?
21306	And so do you, Dick?
21306	And so the magistrate thought you guilty, Dick?
21306	And was that farther back?
21306	And was the meeting satisfied?
21306	And what are you going to do now?
21306	And what now?
21306	And where is mother?
21306	And who do you think it was?
21306	And who do you think it weer?
21306	And who was that?
21306	And whom does he suspect?
21306	And will it all run off now, father?
21306	And with two holes in it, mester?
21306	Any chance of catching him if we threw in again?
21306	Any idea who it could be?
21306	Any mischief? 21306 Anything wrong?"
21306	Ar''n''t we going to catch any more?
21306	Are n''t you going?
21306	Are these your horses?
21306	Are these yours?
21306	Are you all right again, Bargle?
21306	Are you going away, father?
21306	Are you going to pick a crop of pears next year, neighbour?
21306	Are you going to resist the law?
21306	Are you going-- to- day, Dave?
21306	Are you hurt, Dick?
21306	Are you in much pain?
21306	Are you sure, boy?
21306	Are you, father?
21306	Are your hands fishy, Tom?
21306	Are yours mounted with brass and with brass pans?
21306	At home, o''course?
21306	Ay, but what''s that to do with it?
21306	Ay, farmer, but how?
21306	Ay, squire, you''re right; but how are we to get rid of all this watter?
21306	Ay, wheer are they?
21306	Ay, why didst thou not stop this?
21306	Ay,said Dave, as he stood leaning upon his pole, which he had brought over his shoulder;"will it stop dreern?"
21306	Aye, what is it?
21306	Better than roach and rudd, Dave?
21306	But I say, Hicky, what did the doctor say to your hand? 21306 But I say, Hicky, you are so quiet about it all, did you see who it was shot at you?"
21306	But are they both getting better?
21306	But ca n''t we help, Dave?
21306	But could we build one?
21306	But did n''t you tickle him or something?
21306	But do n''t you think it will be a pity, father?
21306	But do they know that they are leading the wild ducks into the pipe?
21306	But do you know who it was?
21306	But do you think he will get back safe?
21306	But do you think it will take off all the water, and spoil the fen, Dave?
21306	But has n''t your cottage been dreadfully wet?
21306	But have n''t we done? 21306 But he''s very bad, is n''t he?"
21306	But his leg?
21306	But how about your mother?
21306	But how are we to get there?
21306	But how did it come there?
21306	But how did it happen?
21306	But how did the place catch fire?
21306	But how do you know the monks were jolly old chaps?
21306	But is he no better?
21306	But is it safe to go after it?
21306	But suppose they do n''t come?
21306	But the foxes, and hares, and things?
21306	But they might borrow, father?
21306	But was n''t your place horribly wet?
21306	But what did that bud do, lad? 21306 But what is a stong- gad?"
21306	But what will your father say?
21306	But where are you going?
21306	But where?--out in the sea somewhere?
21306	But why did you take so much interest in him? 21306 But why should my men do such a dastardly act?"
21306	But will he take a bait again, Dave?
21306	But you know what he says about who shot at him?
21306	But you would n''t shoot anyone, Mr Marston?
21306	But you''ll take us one day to the''coy, Dave?
21306	But, Dave, were there two?
21306	But--"Well, but what, sir?
21306	Ca n''t he swim out?
21306	Ca n''t you find''em?
21306	Ca n''t you see I''ve got the ager?
21306	Can you find your way?
21306	Can you get up and walk?
21306	Can you hold on, Dick?
21306	Can you make it out, John Warren?
21306	Can you run, Dick-- faster?
21306	Can you see Mr Marston from here?
21306	Can you see the lights at the Priory, Dick?
21306	Can you see where we are?
21306	Can''st ta yeat, Dave, man?
21306	Caught any more in the''coy, Dave?
21306	Come to waarm theesen, farmer? 21306 Come, when shall we start?"
21306	Could n''t I?
21306	Could n''t you do your work afterward?
21306	Dave, shall you know this place again?
21306	Dick, what shall we do?
21306	Did I, Mester Dick? 21306 Did I, lad?"
21306	Did any one get out the horses?
21306	Did he take the boat?
21306	Did he, though?
21306	Did it, though?
21306	Did n''t I say, missus, I''d bring''em home?
21306	Did n''t he bon my place?
21306	Did n''t hurt you, did he, Mester Dick?
21306	Did n''t you feel him a bit, Tom?
21306	Did n''t you get lots of things spoiled when the flood came?
21306	Did n''t you see any one?
21306	Did n''t you see it last night?
21306	Did n''t you see the poont?
21306	Did she blaaze much, mun?
21306	Did you ever see anything so aggravating? 21306 Did you meet Tom Tallington?"
21306	Did you save the clock?
21306	Did yours come back?
21306	Did''st see his goon, Mester Dick?
21306	Do n''t seem to be freezing so hard, does it?
21306	Do n''t the''coy- ducks ever go right away, Dave?
21306	Do n''t you see?
21306	Do n''t you think some one ought to sit up with Mr Marston?
21306	Do you give in, then?
21306	Do you hear? 21306 Do you know, Dick?"
21306	Do you mean by that to say that I am a donkey?
21306	Do you recollect where you left your gun?
21306	Do you think he has?
21306	Do you think he would be very cross if we went after them? 21306 Do you think so, father?"
21306	Do you think the fish- ponds are covered, father?
21306	Do you think the people about will interfere with the works, father?
21306	Do you want Tom Tallington?
21306	Do you want me to kick you?
21306	Do you want me to punch your head, Tom?
21306	Do you want some lead to melt down? 21306 Do yow?"
21306	Doctor, lad?
21306	Does Chip know?
21306	Does it hurt much?
21306	Eh? 21306 Eh?
21306	Eh? 21306 Eh?"
21306	Eh?
21306	Eh?
21306	Escape?
21306	Feel how?
21306	Feel it, Dick? 21306 Gammoning, lad?"
21306	Get Farmer Tallington out?
21306	Go where?
21306	Going on the mere, Dick?
21306	Going over to town to see the doctor, John?
21306	Going to let her run?
21306	Got anything to eat?
21306	Got enough to give Mr Marston a few?
21306	Got everything ready, Dave?
21306	Got your gun, Dave?
21306	Had n''t we better push on, father, before it gets any deeper?
21306	Had n''t you better stand fast too, father?
21306	Had you been round there at all?
21306	Happen sea- bank broke to show folk as fen warn''t niver meant to be drained, eh, John Warren?
21306	Has he? 21306 Has it been an explosion, sir?"
21306	Have we some strange robber in the fen?
21306	Have you told your father, then?
21306	Have you? 21306 He ca n''t bite with his hind- legs, can he?"
21306	He thinks it is being a bit of a coward to tell tales; but he knows it is right to tell, do n''t you, Dick?
21306	He wo n''t kick now, will he?
21306	He''s coming here, is n''t he?
21306	Hear that, neighbour?
21306	Hear that, squire?
21306	Height awayer?
21306	Here, I say, what''s that basket for in the punt?
21306	Here, boys,he cried;"what''s all this?"
21306	Here, how is Dave?
21306	Here, stop a moment,said Marston, laughingly interrupting a groan of disgust uttered by the boys;"what, pray, is a stong- gad?"
21306	Here, what''s that?
21306	Here: where''s squire?
21306	Hey, and what should make you run away from constable, lad?
21306	Hey, bud it''s straange; and will Tallington hev to flit[ move, change residence] then?
21306	Hey, but what''s the matter with the man?
21306	Hey, but why did n''t thou whip the hook into him?
21306	Hey, lads,he cried,"was that you two shouting?"
21306	Hey? 21306 Hickathrift?"
21306	How about your cottage, Dave?
21306	How are you going to get it?
21306	How are you, Dave?
21306	How are you? 21306 How can he have hurt himself like this?"
21306	How can we go now with them both somewhere about? 21306 How could I meet mother,"he cried angrily,"if I let him go alone like that?"
21306	How could he be ready after last night?
21306	How could we get there, then?
21306	How did you escape?
21306	How did you know it was there?
21306	How do we know as it warn''t you?
21306	How do we know but what it may be our turn or Hickathrift''s next? 21306 How do you know he suspects you?"
21306	How do you know that?
21306	How do you know, Dave?
21306	How do you know? 21306 How do you know?"
21306	How does he seem?
21306	How is it, Dave, that all the little fish like to keep to the top of the water, and the big ones out of sight down at the bottom?
21306	How long is it since that poor fellow was shot?
21306	How long is this mist likely to last?
21306	How long will it be before the doctor can get here?
21306	How long would it take Hicky to mend it?
21306	How much farther is it?
21306	How much is there in it?
21306	How old was he, do you think, Hicky?
21306	How should I know? 21306 How was it, Dave?"
21306	How would you like to be knocked over with a stone?
21306	How?
21306	Hullo, my lads, what is it then?
21306	I daresay it is, farmer,said the squire sternly;"but do you know what it says in the Book about the man who puts his hand to the plough?"
21306	I do n''t care if I go in; do you?
21306	I do n''t think my father would let me go,said Tom thoughtfully,"and I''m sure my mother would n''t; and I say, Dick, is n''t it all nonsense?"
21306	I got it over his head, then?
21306	I only says, Is it to be fishing or games?
21306	I say is n''t it deep here, Dave?
21306	I say, Dave, how do you manage it? 21306 I say, Dave, what is a will o''the wisp really like?"
21306	I say, Dave, what''s this bird?
21306	I say, Dave, would a fellow like that bite?
21306	I say, Dave,said Dick just then,"what''s to be done?"
21306	I say, Dick, do you know how your father made the horses come out?
21306	I say, Dick, is n''t it soft out there?
21306	I say, Dick, what about the netting?
21306	I say, Hicky, you''ve got a gun, have n''t you?
21306	I say, Marston,said the squire,"you''d like to see your great band of ruffians at work excavating here, eh?"
21306	I say, Mr Marston,said Dick,"you''ll stay at our place to- night?"
21306	I say, how are we to catch him? 21306 I say, what are John Warren''s ferrets doing here?"
21306	I say, what''s that?
21306	I say, where''s John Warren? 21306 I suppose you would n''t like the ague driven away?"
21306	I was only going to say, father, is n''t it a pity to spoil the fen?
21306	I wish we could get it home to our place to keep as a curiosity?
21306	If it weern''t a sperrit what was to mak my little dog, Snig, creep down in the bottom of the boat and howl? 21306 Is Jacob there?"
21306	Is Tom there?
21306	Is anything wrong?
21306	Is he dead?
21306	Is he dying, Hicky?
21306	Is he there, Mr Winthorpe?
21306	Is it a bird?
21306	Is it all safe?
21306	Is it anything about paying their wages?
21306	Is it boggy and soft under you?
21306	Is it the big pike, Dave?
21306	Is n''t he a pretty creature, Tom? 21306 Is n''t he heavy?"
21306	Is n''t he there, father?
21306	Is n''t it grand?
21306	Is that another perch?
21306	Is that why it let you catch it, Dave?
21306	Is there a very big one, Dave?
21306	Is there any fear of their getting away now, Dave?
21306	Is there-- where?
21306	Is this the place?
21306	It''s all nonsense about spirits; is n''t it, Tom?
21306	Kill''em all at one shot, Dave?
21306	Know him, father?
21306	Know what that means?
21306	Like me to go and catch him, young Tom?
21306	Like to tak''a goon, sir, or a fishing- pole?
21306	Like your tobacco- jar?
21306	Long, boy?
21306	Look here, my man,said the engineer, stopping short;"can you say for certain who''s at the bottom of this mischief?"
21306	Look here, squire, we''ve known each other twenty year, and I ask thee as a man, will it be all right?
21306	May I read it-- and Tom?
21306	May I?
21306	May we talk now, father?
21306	Mending fast, my lad; and how are you?
21306	Muscles, mester? 21306 Nay, did I though?"
21306	Nay, what''s the good?
21306	Nay, who kills hares at the end of March, lad? 21306 Nay; what should I want you here for?"
21306	Nearly there?
21306	Neighbour,cried Farmer Tallington excitedly,"you''ll go on, wean''t you?
21306	Never mind about them,said Dick eagerly;"are you going to start now?"
21306	Next day, then?
21306	No roots, my lad?
21306	No, father, I sha''n''t say anything; but--"But what? 21306 No,"was the panted- out reply;"but I say, what will old Dave say?"
21306	Not if he shutes at us?
21306	Not taken away?
21306	Now then, what are yow gimbling[ grinning] at, young mester?
21306	Now, Hicky,cried Dick,"who ever heard of a will- o''-the- wisp with a gun?"
21306	Now, Marston, where for next?
21306	Now, are you coming?
21306	Now, my boy,he said,"why do n''t you speak?"
21306	Now, sir,said the squire as soon as he was alone with his son,"what have you got to say for yourself?"
21306	Now, then, Dave, what''s it to be?
21306	Now, then, where are you?
21306	Now, what are you going to do?
21306	Oh, I say, is n''t it soft?
21306	Oh, Tom, what shall we do?
21306	Oh, never mind him,cried Tom;"is old Dave coming over to fetch us?
21306	Oh, you think so, do you, Dave?
21306	On your honour, Dick?
21306	Pick''em up then,cried Dave quietly;"where are they then?"
21306	Pie- wipes eats the beedles and wains, do n''t they? 21306 Pull him out, man?
21306	Quarrel?

21306	Tak''you over to the Warren, my lad?
21306	Tell me who have you had a quarrel with lately?
21306	That all?
21306	That made him hold his tongue, Hicky?
21306	That you, Dave?
21306	That you, Hicky? 21306 That you, squire?"
21306	The boat,he said--"did you come in the boat?"
21306	Theer, she''s a beauty, is n''t she?
21306	Theer,cried Dave, looking up;"what do you say to them for bait, eh?"
21306	Then he is not very bad, doctor?
21306	Then it was no accident, Hickathrift?
21306	Then may I have a shot at the first heron I see?
21306	Then someone did strike you when you were asleep, Bargle, eh?

21306	Then who was it?
21306	Then who was it?
21306	Then whom do you suspect?
21306	Then why do n''t you leave off, father?
21306	Then why not have asked me for a thicker rope, Dick?
21306	Then you confess that you do know who fired at your father?
21306	Then you''ve been waiting at the Warren?
21306	Then, what are you going to do?
21306	Then, what''s the good of us putting our money in it, eh? 21306 There,"he said,"what did I tell you?
21306	There?
21306	Think he''s very badly, squire?
21306	Think it fell theer?
21306	Think it was a fox?
21306	Think it''s that monster that took down the duck?
21306	Think so, mester?
21306	Think so, sir?
21306	Think so?
21306	Think so?
21306	Think the old monks''ll mind?
21306	Think we ought to go and meet him, father?
21306	Think what? 21306 To see the netting?"
21306	To- morrow, Dave?
21306	Tom Tallington going with you?
21306	Tom Tallington?
21306	Too wide for you, lads?
21306	Ugly news, father?
21306	Want any rabbuds?
21306	Want to turn back and give up?
21306	Was it an accident?
21306	Was n''t it a very big one, Dave?
21306	We shall stop just as long as we like, sha''n''t we, Tom?
21306	We''re not going anywhere, are we?

21306	Well, I was going to, was n''t I?
21306	Well, and suppose you did, what then?
21306	Well, and what does he say?
21306	Well, are n''t you going to ask us in?
21306	Well, could n''t the sparks and flames of fire float over and set light to the thatch?
21306	Well, have n''t I come for you, lad?
21306	Well, is it getting better, Hicky?
21306	Well, my lads, what is it?
21306	Well, theer''s nowt much to say, lad, only that soon as squire knowd who it weer he--"But how did he know who it was?
21306	Well, what are two, Dave?
21306	Well, what does that matter? 21306 Well, what of it?
21306	Well, what, man? 21306 Well, whose fault''s that?"
21306	Well,said the squire laughing,"what have you been doing in that half acre of close beside your house?"
21306	Were the nets there, Dave?
21306	What about the money?
21306	What are you doing here, sir? 21306 What are you doing here?"
21306	What are you going to do with that?
21306	What are you going to do, men?

21306	What d''yer think o''them?
21306	What did Dick say?
21306	What did you fill the dike for, Mr Marston?
21306	What did you go to him for?
21306	What difference does that make?
21306	What do they want?
21306	What do you mean?
21306	What do you mean?
21306	What do you want?
21306	What does it mean?

21306	Which way did your father go?
21306	Who can tell, Dick? 21306 Who do n''t like what?"
21306	Who is it?
21306	Who said he would, mester?
21306	Who says so?
21306	Who was it made this great bank, father?
21306	Who''s going to hook him out?

21306	Who''s that?
21306	Why are you here?
21306	Why did n''t he catch him then?
21306	Why did n''t you go on?
21306	Why did n''t you ketch''em, then,''fore they did this here?
21306	Why did not this man answer to his cry-- this man who was so furtively stealing away? 21306 Why did you come fishing?"
21306	Why didst na let him hev it again?
21306	Why do n''t the live ones tell him it is n''t safe?
21306	Why do n''t you throw, Dick?
21306	Why have you come here?
21306	Why not, Hicky?
21306	Why not, Tom? 21306 Why not, father?"

21306	Why not?
21306	Why should n''t a will hev a goon as well as a lanthorn?
21306	Why, Dick,he whispered,"is n''t it very horrible?"
21306	Why, Hickathrift, were you hit?
21306	Why, Mester Dick, what now?
21306	Why, doctor says he''s sewer that he can bring squire reight again, and what more do you want?
21306	Why, have you caught some?
21306	Why, how came he in there?
21306	Why, lad, I''m a man full o''--what do you call that when a chap wants to get on in the world?
21306	Why, what did you do then?
21306	Why, what do you mean?
21306	Why, what do you want, Dave?
21306	Why, what now, Dave?
21306	Why, what would anybody do if he had cut his finger?
21306	Why, what''s it all mean?
21306	Why, what''s the matter with your hand, man?
21306	Why, what''s this?
21306	Why, where would he get his powder and shot?
21306	Why, who can be shooting now?
21306	Why, you do n''t think it''s a woman, do you?
21306	Why, you ignorant young cub,cried the squire,"do you suppose you are always to be running over the ice in pattens, and fishing and shooting?"
21306	Why?
21306	Why?
21306	Why?
21306	Will Mr Marston go with us?
21306	Will he find him, Hicky?
21306	Will it be strong enough, Hicky?
21306	Will it bear, Hicky?
21306	Will it come in again, then?
21306	Will the fish go into that net?
21306	Will they come and settle on the net, Dave?
21306	Will they, Mester Dick?
21306	Will you come?
21306	Will you go if I go with you?
21306	Will you, Hicky?
21306	Will yow want any dinner to- morrow, lad?
21306	Wo n''t he let you touch it, Mester Dick?
21306	Wonder what old Dave said about his powder- flask?
21306	Wonder what that chap thinks of the stuffed ones?
21306	Yes, and you, father?
21306	Yes, but how?
21306	Yes, but who told?
21306	Yes, but will you, Hicky?
21306	Yes, but--"But what, man? 21306 Yes, it''s all right, Master Winthorpe,"said Farmer Tallington;"but what will the folks say?"
21306	Yes, my lad; out on the watter,said the farmer;"and that med me say to mysen: What''s any one doing wi''a light out on the watter at this time?
21306	Yes, that''s all very well; but how are you going to do it?
21306	Yes, that''s fine enough, squire,said Tom''s father;"but what will the fen- men say?"
21306	Yes: was n''t it to try how it would go?
21306	Yes; did n''t he, Tom? 21306 Yes; did n''t he, Tom?"
21306	Yes; do n''t you understand?
21306	Yes; what caused the flood?
21306	Yes; who is it?
21306	Yes; you''ve got one?
21306	You are coming too, father?
21306	You are not afraid to speak out?
21306	You ca n''t do anything till then?
21306	You did not hear, then?
21306	You did, Dick?
21306	You did, Dick?
21306	You do n''t think he''s on, do you?
21306	You do n''t want us here, then?
21306	You have had no quarrel with your men?
21306	You hear?
21306	You saw that?
21306	You saw that?
21306	You think I have been carrying a gun, and shot myself?
21306	You wo n''t go without us, Dave?
21306	You wo n''t pull for him, will you, Dave?
21306	You''ve done nowt to be''shamed on?
21306	You, Tom Tallington, why are you there?
21306	Your father said that?
21306	Yow two med it up yet?
21306	''Member the big flood, squire?"
21306	Ah, mester, how are you?
21306	All your people too?"
21306	And did the dog scent out the fox?"
21306	And do you hear, all of you?"
21306	And this base wretch, who could it be?
21306	And what''s that wisp of birds going over the water, yonder?"
21306	Any one ill?"
21306	Are n''t you, Tom?"
21306	Are there plenty of ducks?"
21306	Are you afraid?"
21306	Are you going to ride?"
21306	Are you going to take us?"
21306	Are you hurt, Tom?"
21306	Are you men going to try to help us?"
21306	Are you much hurt?"
21306	Are your feet wet?"
21306	Arm better?"
21306	Better be a farmer a night like this, eh, Tallington?"
21306	Bud dree- ern ar''n''t done yet, lads, eh?"
21306	But hev they ketched him?"
21306	But it arn''t done yet, lads, eh?"
21306	But where was the fire?"
21306	But you mean it?"
21306	By the way, Dick, did that man Bargle ever give you the big tusk he said he had found?"
21306	By the way, though, who was it shot Dave Gittan?
21306	Can you be surprised?"
21306	Can you hold the punt with your pole?"
21306	Can you tek how d, lad?"
21306	Come, are you ready?"
21306	Come, tell the truth now-- weren''t you?"
21306	Coming?"
21306	Could he have repented and made up his mind not to keep faith, or was there some reason?
21306	Could you catch another?"
21306	D''ye hear, lads?"
21306	Dave, what bird''s that?"
21306	Dave, where''s Grimsey, thinks ta?"
21306	Did n''t he, Mr Marston?"
21306	Did they cure my ager?"
21306	Did you hear a report?"
21306	Did you know we''d come for you?"
21306	Did you?"
21306	Did you?"
21306	Do n''t it make one proud of one''s father?"
21306	Do n''t see any sign of Mr Marston yet, do you?"
21306	Do n''t you know that Grimsey was nearly all burned down last night?"
21306	Do n''t you think you did about as mad and absurd a thing as the man who put his head into the lion''s jaws?"
21306	Do they call them stoats in London?"
21306	Do we, Dick?"
21306	Do you hear what he says, Tom?
21306	Do you hear, Dick?"
21306	Do you know what they call whittricks down south?"
21306	Do you mean to say Tom Tallington and I know?"
21306	Do you mean to say you believe Tom Tallington and I know anything about these cowardly tricks?"
21306	Do you think I do n''t know what I''m about?"
21306	Do you understand?"
21306	Do you understand?"
21306	Does he mean dig the ditch?"
21306	Eh?
21306	Feel better?"
21306	Go back to bed?"
21306	Going down to the drain?"
21306	Going fishing?"
21306	Going out in the morning?"
21306	Going to help me kill''em?"
21306	Good goons, are n''t they?"
21306	Got anything to eat, Dave?"
21306	Has Dave been over?"
21306	Has anybody done this?"
21306	Has anybody threatened you?"
21306	Has he had the horn?"
21306	Have they caught anyone?"
21306	He unhooks the doors and lifts the gates off the hinges, and one day he was shut up in the big barn, and what do you think he did?"
21306	Hear a noise?"
21306	Hear that?"
21306	Heered aught yet''bout him as did it?"
21306	Hello, who''s this?
21306	Here, shall I call father?"
21306	How did you know?"
21306	How do, neighbour?"
21306	How is it you''re not over at the works?"
21306	How should you like to be that gudgeon with a hook in your mouth, or the pike when he''s caught?"
21306	How?"
21306	Hullo, what does Hicky want?"
21306	I say, Dave, are there any butterbumps[ bitterns] close here?"
21306	I say, Dick, do you think he really does watch us?"
21306	I say, Hicky, may I have the punt to- morrow?"
21306	I say, John Warren, will the rabbits be all drowned?"
21306	I say, Tallington, when they get as old as we are, eh?"
21306	I say, Tom, you did n''t think what old Hicky said was true, did you?"
21306	I say, are we going right home with you?"
21306	I say, are we going?"
21306	I say, could n''t we put anything out?"
21306	I say, do n''t you want the doctor?"
21306	I say, how much farther is it?"
21306	I say, shall I go back now?"
21306	I say, though, talk''bout ketching; hev the squire and Farmer Tallington ketched the chap as sat fire to Grimsey stables?"
21306	I say, what are they talking about now?"
21306	I say, what does it mean?"
21306	I say, what''s that-- a summer- house?"
21306	I say, you''d lend me that gun if I wanted it, would n''t you?"
21306	Is Dick there?"
21306	Is n''t it, Tom?"
21306	Is that Decoy Dave''s place?"
21306	Is that powder or drink?"
21306	It must be at Dave''s, eh?"
21306	It must bon down, squire, eh?"
21306	Just then Dick asked a question:"I say, Mr Tallington, was n''t it strange that you did n''t know of the fire till I came?"
21306	Look at the times I''ve wetched all night in my poont for the wild- geese, and wi''out a fire, eh?
21306	Looks like it, do n''t it?"
21306	May I come up?"
21306	May I take up the gun?"
21306	May n''t I have one baked potato?"
21306	May n''t us knock him down, squire?"
21306	Might hev been me, and what would my poor lass do?
21306	Now is Dave Gittan the man to look sour at anybody who takes him half a pound of powder?
21306	Now let''s go reight back, and see if theer''s any on, or-- don''t you think, lads, it''s''bout time to try and ketch me?"
21306	Now, are the few to give way to the many, or the many to give way to the few?"
21306	Now, come, why not speak?"
21306	Now, then, are you ready?"
21306	Now, then, how much further are you going?"
21306	Now, then, will you join the adventurers?"
21306	Of course; but come-- you do know?"
21306	Only, would n''t it be cruel?"
21306	Owd poont got dry and cracked, and of no use bud to go on the dreern, and who wanted to go on a dreern as had been used to the mere?"
21306	Ready?"
21306	Ready?"
21306	Say, lads, shall we go home now, or try the other ligger?"
21306	See him stand up again me that day?
21306	Shall I carry the birds down to the boat?"
21306	Shall I go and catch her?"
21306	Shall I go down to them, doctor?"
21306	Shall we build a place?"
21306	Shall we leave him?"
21306	Shall we let him light us home?"
21306	Should he shout again and order him to stop?
21306	Should n''t we, Dave?"
21306	Squire going to lend you a goon?"
21306	Suppose thou wast to shoot thee sen, or blow off a leg or a hand?
21306	Suppose you had cut your finger, would n''t you tie it up?"
21306	That you, Marston?"
21306	The horses?"
21306	The sooner the place is drained now, neighbour, the better, eh?"
21306	The squire?"
21306	Theer, hev you done stroking her?"
21306	Theer, what did I tell you?"
21306	Then you were woke out of your sleep by a blow, eh?"
21306	They had been eating and listening to the conversation outside, till it reached its climax in the following words:"What, man?
21306	They wo n''t be uneasy at home?"
21306	Think it''ll hold him?"
21306	Thowt you''d been to school up to town yonder to larn manners both on you?"
21306	To Dick Winthorpe''s great surprise there was no answer to his cry, and raising his voice again he shouted:"Who''s that?
21306	Up to this time they had been so busy and excited that they had not paused to ask the question: How was it that the man had been wounded?
21306	Want some more powder?"
21306	Was he too going to drown?
21306	Was it from fear of him?"
21306	We do n''t bear no malice, do us?
21306	We know yow all hates our being here, so how do we know it warn''t yow?"
21306	We''re good mates, eh?"
21306	We''ve got say fourscore pie- wipes-- not for fun, but for wittles-- and what''s fourscore when there''s thousands upon thousands all about?"
21306	Well, Dick, plenty of sport to- day?"
21306	Well, Dick, what do you think of it?"
21306	Well, what of that?
21306	What are you going to do to- day?"
21306	What are you going to do?"
21306	What call hev you to talk that clat?"
21306	What did he expect to get with a bullet at a time like this?
21306	What did it mean?
21306	What do they want?
21306	What do you call them in London?"
21306	What do you mean?"
21306	What do you want to see the dunks for?"
21306	What do you want?
21306	What do you want?"
21306	What does he say?"
21306	What does it matter?"
21306	What does this mean?"
21306	What for?
21306	What games yow did hev in her too, eh?"
21306	What have I done?"
21306	What have they got to do with it?"
21306	What is it-- a drag- net?"
21306	What is it?"
21306	What is there to mind?"
21306	What say, Mester Dick?
21306	What shall we do?"
21306	What shall we do?"
21306	What time shall you be ready?"
21306	What time''s he coming?"
21306	What was he doing on the water at night?
21306	What was that you threw in?"
21306	What were you trying to shoot, Marston?"
21306	What would squire say?"
21306	What would you like?"
21306	What yer think o''that?"
21306	What''s a dumpy leveller?
21306	What''s that?"
21306	What''s that?"
21306	What''s that?"
21306	What''s that?"
21306	What''s that?"
21306	What''s the good o''my punt?
21306	What''s the good of going and dreaming such stuff and then coming along the dark road to tell me?
21306	What''s the good of it?"
21306	What''s to be done?
21306	What, the ruffs?"
21306	What?"
21306	Wheer''s young Tom o''Grimsey?"
21306	Where''s the big hook, Dave?"
21306	Where?"
21306	Which is it, mester?"
21306	Who fired that shot?''
21306	Who fired the shot which took his life?
21306	Who says so?
21306	Who was Mr Bootherboomp?"
21306	Who was it fired that shot?
21306	Who was it?"
21306	Who''s going over to see John Warren?"
21306	Who''s going to pole?"
21306	Who''s that?"
21306	Who''s that?"
21306	Who''s this coming?"
21306	Whose house had been burned?
21306	Why did they want to go meddling wi''me?"
21306	Why did you come and tell Dick that?"
21306	Why do n''t thou tek''em wi''you, Dave, man?
21306	Why do n''t you put it on cold, instead of burning the wood?"
21306	Why do n''t you say_ He_?"
21306	Why have you come over?"
21306	Why is one so miserable?
21306	Why should n''t the fox have duck for supper as well as other people?"
21306	Why, what for?"
21306	Why, what''s it got to do with you?"
21306	Why, what''s this, then?"
21306	Why, you know?"
21306	Why?
21306	Why?"
21306	Why?"
21306	Will he be long before he is better?"
21306	Will it soon get well?"
21306	Will it spoil the dreern, and stop all the work?"
21306	Will you come, squire?"
21306	Will you forgive me?"
21306	Will you join?"
21306	Will you speak?"
21306	Wo n''t it be better to have solid land about us instead of marsh, and beef and mutton instead of birds, and wheat instead of fish?"
21306	Wo n''t you help me?"
21306	Would n''t bear me to walk wi''ye to sleep in one of the barns at the Toft, would it?"
21306	Would this be the same man who had been guilty of all these crimes?
21306	Would you, mate?"
21306	You can swim, father?"
21306	You did not do this dastardly thing?"
21306	You suspect my boy of firing your men''s huts last night?"
21306	You wo n''t mind poling?"
21306	You would n''t shoot your own father, eh?"
21306	You''ll go with me, Hickathrift?"
21306	You''ll go with me, wo n''t you?"
21306	You''re there, are you?"
21306	You''ve got a hammer and some nails in the big barn?"
21306	Young Tom o''Grimsey and you been hewing a bit of a fight?"
21306	Your people dig out pine- roots, do n''t they, perfectly sound, and full of turpentine?
21306	art mad?"
21306	because it''s part of the old monastery?"
21306	came back; and then a well- known voice cried:"Is that you, Dick?"
21306	cried Dick aloud;"and-- and what is it, Tom?"
21306	cried Dick excitedly; and upon being answered in the affirmative--"Now, then, what shall we do first?"
21306	cried Dick;"how about the ruffs and reeves?
21306	cried Dick;"who said it was cold?
21306	cried Tom eagerly;"and I tell you what, Dick-- you know that old lead?"
21306	cried the lads together;"want us?"
21306	did you hear that?"
21306	he cried;"what''s the matter?"
21306	he said aloud;"catch the scoundrel who shot Mr Marston, and get him transported for life?"
21306	he snarled;"what''s the good o''saying such a word as that?
21306	heven''t you niver seen one, lad?"
21306	how are you?"
21306	how could it?
21306	now you''re sorry for being such a brute, are you?"
21306	said Farmer Tallington,"that''s just what I should like to know.-- Were you out there last night, Tom?"
21306	said Tom;"who''d mind a few frogs?"
21306	that flock of wild- geese going over?"
21306	that they dug up when they made the new cow- house?"
21306	the horses again, or a fire?"
21306	wean''t it?

21306	what does it taste like, Dick?"
21306	what for?"
21306	what shall I do?"
21306	what should I do with a doctor?"
21306	what''s matter?"
21306	what''s that?"
21306	what''s that?"
21306	what''s that?"
21306	what''s the good o''doctors?

21306	where was he?
21306	who''s on that ladder?"
21306	who''s this?"
21306	why, were n''t they fond of fishing, and did n''t they make my ponds?
