3812 | Does he hate to lose? |
3812 | Does he want self- confidence? |
3812 | Has he no love for life, life as a great adventure? |
3812 | He can not explain it, so why should not he wonder about it quite openly and quite delightedly, with all his engaging naivete? |
3812 | He is a sort of efficiency engineer, installing his charts and his systems into public life,--and who loves an efficiency engineer? |
3812 | He kept asking himself the question,"Why am I not as other men are? |

28197 | And may we not appeal also to our brethren of the South-- and ask their fair consideration of the two propositions I have suggested? 28197 Where, I ask, is the good ship Virginia, in the array of the national fleet? |
28197 | And what is the result? |

28197 | And, gentlemen, would he not as likely give to those who_ could not_ tell? |
28197 | Does the preaching such language to slaves tend to pacification? |
28197 | Gentlemen, did he not give Mr. King one, because he thought that he_ would not_ mention it? |
28197 | If so, does not this libel of itself afford sufficient evidence of malice, without resorting to the matter of other pamphlets not charged? |
28197 | In other words, to see what legal inferences of additional evidence such inscriptions afford? |
28197 | Is it unreasonable to suppose that he was deterred by the warning? |
28197 | It was also asked why the person who gave the bundle to him in New York was not brought to testify in his favor? |
28197 | May not any man be subjected to be treated as a felon, upon the instigation of private malice, or party animosity, or religious rancor? |
28197 | May we not appeal to the experience of eleven years, to show that the work in which we are engaged can be conducted without excitement or alarm? |
28197 | May we not claim at least this merit for our labors:--that they are safe? |
28197 | Now if but one of fifty was given out, is it not as probable that he did not desire to publish them, as that he did? |
28197 | Ought not this to join all hearts, and call forth renewed exertions from those whose labors have thus far been crowned with unexpected success? |
28197 | Shall it be said that we are not liable to the same vicissitudes that have overtaken other nations? |
28197 | The loan to Mr. King was the only instance proved of distribution, and could that be considered malicious? |
28197 | Then why resort to them? |
28197 | There are two questions in this case: are the libels charged criminal?--are they proved to have been published by the traverser? |

28384 | Does n''t she intend to finish her education? |
28384 | From where? |
28384 | I must go,impatiently remarked the Lieutenant, mounting his horse;"what shall I report to the General?" |
28384 | My Heavens, Mr. Satan, am I then doomed to return to Newark? |
28384 | Newark? |
28384 | And pray who were there? |
28384 | By being that, may I not flatter myself I have some claims upon their benevolence if not upon their justice? |
28384 | Can comeliness of form or face so fair With kindliness of word or deed compare? |
28384 | Can they be dissevered? |
28384 | Can you believe that a vivid memory can turn back so many years? |
28384 | Do you know of any opportunity? |
28384 | Everett?" |
28384 | Fish say?" |
28384 | His facetious rejoinder was:"Was ever the Father of his Country so defamed?" |
28384 | I inquired:"What is wrong, Captain?" |
28384 | In my astonishment I said:"Where?" |
28384 | May I not ask that State, especially you, sir, their Governor, to fulfil in some respects the engagements entered into by their predecessors? |
28384 | May I request you to accept this humble but sincere tribute to the memory of a most valued friend? |
28384 | More than once as I passed him he accosted me with the interrogative,"Are you Nancy Hazard''s brat?" |
28384 | Much to the amusement of the guests whom he met, his salutation was:"Would you know me?" |
28384 | Now I ask you candidly, have we retrograded in matters of taste or become less loyal to the true spirit of our Republican institutions? |
28384 | Oh, home of my boyhood, why must I depart? |
28384 | Only a short period had elapsed when several mounted officers dashed up our driveway and anxiously inquired:"Where are the guards?" |
28384 | Referring at once to"Uncle James,"he inquired:"Who is that man?" |
28384 | Soon after her birth, several Chinese asked me:"How many girls do you keep?" |
28384 | Sumner?" |
28384 | The insignia of the society is an orange ribbon bearing the words inscribed in black:"Should auld acquaintance be forgot?" |
28384 | The quick response was:"I must first know the circumstances of the case; but what have you been doing?" |
28384 | This suggests, although remotely, the inquiry heard many years ago:"Have we a Bourbon among us?" |
28384 | Upon receiving a favorable response, she asked:"Why is His Holiness, the Pope, like a goose?" |
28384 | Was it for glory or was it for pelf, Or just for the pleasure of quoting yourself?" |
28384 | Wend you with the world to- night? |
28384 | Wend you with the world to- night? |
28384 | Wend you with the world to- night? |
28384 | Wend you with the world to- night? |
28384 | Wend you with the world to- night? |
28384 | What the bright sparkling of the finest eye To the soft soothing of a kind reply? |
28384 | What, said he, do n''t you want to see it if it is in writing& genuine? |
28384 | Who wadna draw the sword? |
28384 | Who wadna up and rally, At their royal prince''s word? |
28384 | Why do n''t they work?'' |
28384 | Will you excuse me if, from a sincere desire for your success, I go farther& touch upon matters not political, or at least not wholly so? |
28384 | dear Kneeland, pray what do you mean By such a fat book on the subject of Lien? |
28384 | for is not my sorrow a twin sorrow? |
28384 | quintessence divine New joys entrance my soul while thou art mine; Who takes? |
28384 | who takes thee not? |
5820 | Aha, my girl, do n''t you see? 5820 And does it seem as necessary to you to do it as it did before you came to Fallkill?" |
5820 | And is thee satisfied with it? |
5820 | And now I tell you that is all arranged, I suppose you''ll tell me I ought to go? |
5820 | And see ye not yon braid, braid road, That lies across the lily leven? 5820 And thee preferred the fop to the serious- minded?" |
5820 | And thee would like to turn it into a hospital? |
5820 | And what has Philip to do with that? |
5820 | Bigger than$ 200,000, Beriah? |
5820 | Bigger, child?--why, what''s$ 200,000? 5820 But Beriah, you''ve been expecting it every day, all along, have n''t you?" |
5820 | Company say anything? |
5820 | Did I ever show any want of confidence in you, Harry? |
5820 | Did thee know thee father had been in correspondence with Philip? |
5820 | Did you think he was fickle? |
5820 | Do n''t know any of the families of the congressmen? 5820 Do you look upon them as I subjects, dear?" |
5820 | Does your doctor know any thing-- I do n''t mean about medicine, but about things in general, is he a man of information and good sense? |
5820 | Go on? |
5820 | No answer? |
5820 | O see ye not yon narrow road So thick beset wi''thorns and briers? 5820 Oh, I do n''t think I should come to Fallkill to practice, but I must do something when I am through school; and why not medicine?" |
5820 | Rusticated? |
5820 | Ruth is a dear girl, Philip, and has as much firmness of purpose as ever, but do n''t you see she has just discovered that she is fond of society? 5820 We heard you were at the Sassacus House,"were Ruth''s first words;"and this I suppose is your friend?" |
5820 | What is that? |
5820 | What then? |
5820 | What''s to be done? |
5820 | What''s yours? |
5820 | Who''s just superb? |
5820 | Why did he come to you? |
5820 | Why should I want you to go away? 5820 Why should n''t I try to make a pleasant evening? |
5820 | Would you have her sign our petition? |
5820 | You telegraphed yesterday? |
5820 | And besides, ai n''t I going to do those things? |
5820 | And when I say thin or not thin it''s a fact, anyway, they say,''Come, now, but do you really believe that?'' |
5820 | Bless your heart, you dear women live right in the present all the time-- but a man, why a man lives----"In the future, Beriah? |
5820 | But ai n''t it a ripping toad, though? |
5820 | But do n''t we live in the future most too much, Beriah? |
5820 | But tell me father,"continued Ruth, not to be put off,"is thee still going on with that Bigler and those other men who come here and entice thee?" |
5820 | Did n''t uncle tell me only last Saturday, that I might as well go down to Arizona and hunt for diamonds? |
5820 | Did thee see anybody whom thee would like to live with always in Fallkill?" |
5820 | Did you ever see that?" |
5820 | Did you forget the railroad? |
5820 | Do you go to Senator X? |
5820 | How far from here is Columbus River? |
5820 | How was he getting on with his navigation scheme, would it be likely to take him from home to Jefferson City; or to Washington, perhaps? |
5820 | I do n''t mean to fret, I do n''t mean to worry; and I do n''t, once a month, do I, dear? |
5820 | I know you''re doing all you can, and I do n''t want to seem repining and ungrateful-- for I''m not, Beriah-- you know I''m not, do n''t you?" |
5820 | If he wo n''t stick to any industry except for himself now, what will he do then?" |
5820 | Is it an appropriation? |
5820 | Is it that railroad?" |
5820 | Just stop and fancy a moment-- just think a little-- don''t anything suggest itself? |
5820 | Let me see--where was I? |
5820 | Perhaps the reader has never been there? |
5820 | Sellers should, have business there; say, about this Columbus River appropriation?" |
5820 | Sellers, who had been a confederate and had not thriven by it, should give him the cold shoulder? |
5820 | So, do n''t you see? |
5820 | Things ai n''t so dark, are they? |
5820 | To what purpose? |
5820 | Was she fascinated with Harry''s careless''bon homie''and gay assurance? |
5820 | We''ve got the rail road to fall back on; and in the meantime, what are we worrying about that$ 200,000 appropriation for? |
5820 | What difference does it make about the mood and tense of a mere verb? |
5820 | What do you suppose I am staying in Hawkeye for, week after week, when I ought to be with my corps?" |
5820 | When, however, they reached Stone''s Landing the Senator looked about him and inquired,"Is this Napoleon?" |
5820 | Where''ll it be by the middle of summer? |
5820 | Who shall say that this is not the golden age of mutual trust, of unlimited reliance upon human promises? |
5820 | Why not, she said, why should n''t I do as other women have done? |
5820 | Why will father have anything to do with him? |
5820 | Would Ruth be glad to hear, he wondered, that he was coming East? |
5820 | Would thee have me sit here like a bird on a bough and wait for somebody to come and put me in a cage?" |
5820 | Would you? |
5820 | You being a stranger, how could you do otherwise? |
5820 | You want an appointment? |
5820 | You''d go''straight to the Committee, or to the Interior office, I suppose? |
10401 | Daniel,he said, addressing me by my Christian name,"what are you doing here? |
10401 | In what position is the prisoner placed by the evidence? 10401 Who is this man? |
10401 | _ District Attorney_.--What newspaper is that from which the counsel reads? 10401 And does not this open a plain path for this prisoner out of the danger of this prosecution? 10401 And how did the slaves behave after they were captured? 10401 And, looking at those facts, is it necessary for me to open my lips in reply? 10401 Are you going to presume that the chickens run into his bag of their own accord, and without his agency? 10401 Are you to presume that the horse came to him of its own accord? 10401 Because the people in another land have arisen and triumphed over the despot, who had done-- what? 10401 But shall this prisoner be allowed to take advantage of his own wrong? 10401 But was not the vessel chartered in Philadelphia to carry off negroes? 10401 By what second- sight are you to look into this void space and time, and to say that Drayton enticed them to go on board? 10401 Can any man be a patriot who pursues such a course? 10401 Can you, without any evidence, say that Drayton enticed them, and that by no other means could they come onboard? 10401 Did he not know they were slaves? 10401 Did he, or not? 10401 Did not that show his authority over them,--that the slaves were under his control, and that he was the master- spirit? 10401 Do n''t you think he ought to? 10401 Do they get up a debate in Congress, and a riot in the city of Washington, every time a theft is committed or attempted in the District? 10401 Does that look as if he seduced them? 10401 For what have we rejoiced? 10401 Has he done anything to take this case out of the transportation statute, and to convert it into a case of stealing? 10401 Has the District Attorney, with all his zeal, pointed out a single particle of evidence of that sort? 10401 He came here from Philadelphia for them; they are found on board his vessel; Drayton says he would steal a negro if he could; is not that enough? 10401 He chartered the vessel to carry off negroes; and, if they were free negroes, or he supposed them to be, how was he to realize an independent fortune? 10401 How can you ask me to abandon it, and thus become a party to my own degradation? 10401 How is he introduced to the jury by his Philadelphia friends? 10401 If he had employers, who were they? 10401 If his confessions are to be taken at all, they are to be taken together; and do they not tend to prove such a state of facts? 10401 If they had been running away, would they not have been downcast and disheartened? 10401 Is he an enlightened friend of freedom, or even a judicious friend of those with whom he affects to sympathize, who adopts such a course? 10401 Is there any crowd or excitement here? 10401 It was all very well for the prisoner''s counsel to smooth things over; but was I, instead of calling him a liar, to say, he told a fib? 10401 Might not somebody else have done it? 10401 Might they not have gone without being enticed at all? 10401 Now, he can not be guilty of both; and which of these offences, if either, does the evidence against him prove? 10401 Now, is it the only possible means of accounting for the presence of Houver''s slaves on board to suppose that this prisoner enticed them? 10401 Now, what is possession of a slave? 10401 Now, which of these two acts is proved against this prisoner? 10401 Shall the record of this trial go forth to the world showing that you have found a fact of which there was no evidence? 10401 The question for you is, Does the evidence in this case bring the prisoner within the law as laid down by the court? 10401 The real question in this case was, Which had I done? 10401 The whole question in this case is, Were these slaves stolen, or were they running away with the prisoner''s assistance? 10401 The wood was a blind; besides he lied about it;--would he have ever come back to collect his note? 10401 There was the fact of their being under the hatches, concealed in the hold of the vessel,--did not that prove he meant to steal them? 10401 We now ask a categorical answer,--Will you remove your press? 10401 We now ask of you, Shall this be done? 10401 Were not these slaves found in Drayton''s possession, and did n''t he admit that he took them? 10401 When I call him a thief and a felon, do I go beyond the charge of the grand jury in the indictment? 10401 Where can the government produce positive testimony to the taking? 10401 Where is the least evidence that the prisoner seduced these slaves, and induced them to leave their masters? 10401 Who does not know that such men are, practically, the worst enemies of the slaves? 10401 Why discuss, when they can not act? 10401 Why first lay down an abstract principle, which they intend to violate in practice? 10401 Why had not these black people, so anxious to escape from their masters, as good a light to their liberty as I had to mine? 10401 Why say he knew he should end his days in a penitentiary? 10401 Why say he took them for gain, if he did not steal them? 10401 Why say if he got off with the negroes he should have realized an independent fortune? 10401 Why so, if the negroes were not slaves? 10401 Why, then, this sudden feeling in his behalf? 10401 Will not these wailings of anguish reach the ears of the Most High? 10401 Would not they have said, Now we are taken? 10401 Would they not exhaust the law- books to find the severest punishment? 10401 You are to look at the evidence; and where is the evidence that the prisoner seduced and enticed these slaves? 5824 And Ruth?" |
5824 | Are his great- grand- children still living? |
5824 | But she was different after that? |
5824 | But what should I lecture about? |
5824 | Do you recognize, that hand- writing? |
5824 | Does it leak anywhere? |
5824 | Gentlemen, have you agreed upon your verdict? |
5824 | Had you the least suspicion of the prisoner''s intention, up to the moment of the shooting? |
5824 | How long have you known the prisoner? |
5824 | How? |
5824 | Indeed I do n''t know.--Why should he? |
5824 | Is it in good repair? |
5824 | Leak? 5824 Major Sellers, what is your occupation?" |
5824 | Mrs. Hawkins,said Mr. Braham,"will you''be kind enough to state the circumstances of your finding Laura?" |
5824 | No? 5824 Not for thy profession?" |
5824 | Well, then, why should n''t a man want to steal it if he got a chance? |
5824 | What is it? |
5824 | Why-- a-- do the clothes fall out of it when it is-- when it is stationary? |
5824 | Why? 5824 Why?" |
5824 | Why? |
5824 | You mean,said Mr. Braham,"that there was an unnatural, insane gleam in her eyes?" |
5824 | After the recovery of Laura from her long illness, did Mrs. Hawkins think there, were any signs of insanity about her? |
5824 | And where to begin? |
5824 | Are we to be shut out from showing that the motive attributed to us could not by reason of certain mental conditions exist? |
5824 | At the time of first finding Laura on the steamboat, did she notice that Laura''s mind was at all deranged? |
5824 | Braham?" |
5824 | But upon one occasion, old Senator Thompson said to me, its my opinion, Colonel Sellers"--"Did you ever see any body who had seen him?" |
5824 | Come, now, answer fair-- wouldn''t you steal it? |
5824 | Could Phil let him have a hundred, say, for ninety days? |
5824 | Dat Mister Prierly, he do n''t never come back here no more, ai n''t it?" |
5824 | Did he accompany her to a reception at Mrs. Shoonmaker''s a day or two before? |
5824 | Did n''t Miss Hawkins refuse you?" |
5824 | Do n''t you see? |
5824 | Do you want to carry water in it? |
5824 | Following that occupation with Miss Hawkins?" |
5824 | Gentlemen, did she ever emerge from this delirium? |
5824 | Had he noticed any change in, Laura after her illness? |
5824 | He was not able to deny that he believed Senator Dilworthy to be guilty-- but what then? |
5824 | I believe Major Lackland is not living, Colonel?" |
5824 | If he, seeks his daughter, it is the purposeless search of a lunatic, as one who wanders bereft of reason, crying where is my child? |
5824 | Let the jury do what they please; what difference is it going to make? |
5824 | Mr. Noble--"Contempt of whom?" |
5824 | Mr. Noble--"Then will the Committee ask the question?" |
5824 | Now what a way to talk that is: What do you suppose that trunk is worth?" |
5824 | Now what would you call stealing?" |
5824 | Or would not the truer way be to find out whether the Senator was capable of being entrapped into so shameless an act, and then try him? |
5824 | Selby?" |
5824 | Sellers, I believe?" |
5824 | Sellers, did you know a Major Lackland?" |
5824 | Sellers, did you; ever see this man, this supposed father?" |
5824 | Sellers, have you any, reason to suppose that this man is still living?" |
5824 | Sellers; you know the parties here, you are a friend of the family?" |
5824 | Shall I do it, or shall I not? |
5824 | Suppose you were a thief, and that trunk was lying around and nobody watching-- wouldn''t you steal it? |
5824 | The question was this:"Were the doctors clear that the deceased had no disease which might soon have carried him off, if he had not been shot?" |
5824 | Then he rushes outen the house, I goes in-- and I says,"Missis did you ring?" |
5824 | Three or four tines in as many weeks he said to himself,"Am I a visionary? |
5824 | Was it such an extraordinary case? |
5824 | Was she not the heroine of the hour? |
5824 | Was this to be done by trying an obscure adventurer for attempting to trap a Senator into bribing him? |
5824 | Were not these following cheers the expression of popular approval and affection? |
5824 | Were you not a lover of Miss Hawkins?" |
5824 | What did he do first? |
5824 | What do you mean by does it leak?" |
5824 | What does she say?" |
5824 | What is it? |
5824 | What is the matter with you?" |
5824 | What is your occupation?" |
5824 | What occurred? |
5824 | What would the morning bring? |
5824 | What would you do first, after you had tomahawked your mother at the breakfast table for putting too much sugar in your coffee? |
5824 | Who is he, where is he? |
5824 | Why did you deal in bank bills on this particular occasion?" |
5824 | Why does the Senate still stick to this pompous word,''Investigation?'' |
5824 | Why not? |
5824 | Why, are n''t trunks always being stolen?" |
5824 | Witness asked her"Who?" |
5824 | Would he one day hear that she had died a felon''s death? |
5824 | Would the conductor open the door and ask for Philip Sterling, and hand him a fatal dispatch? |
5824 | You can do more for her now, sir, than I can?" |
5824 | You have my card?" |
5818 | Believe it, indeed? 5818 But how can I, father? |
5818 | But how should I know whether they were boys or girls? |
5818 | But the money, child? |
5818 | Could n''t you, Washington-- seeing it''s you that wants the ride? 5818 De law sakes, Chile, did n''t I see him a lookin''at us?". |
5818 | Did you feel scared, Uncle Dan''l? |
5818 | Do you reckon he saw, us, Uncle Dan''l? 5818 Do you see these papers? |
5818 | Does I reckon? 5818 Goodness sakes, mars Clay, do n''t de Good Book say? |
5818 | How''s your wood? |
5818 | It''s the same old boy, Nancy, jest the same old boy-- ain''t he? |
5818 | Jim, what is the meaning of that? |
5818 | Nancy, do you suppose I listened to such a preposterous proposition? 5818 Throw it away? |
5818 | Uncle Dan''l, do you reckon it was the prayer that saved us? |
5818 | Well what did you run for? |
5818 | Well, what have you got on hand-- anything? |
5818 | What''s a stirrin'', down''bout the Forks? |
5818 | What''s plasterin''? |
5818 | Where''s your hogs now? 5818 ''Sides, do n''t it call''em de HE- brew chil''en? 5818 Ai n''t any hay and oats? 5818 An''d''you spec''he gwyne to let''em off''dout somebody ast him to do it? 5818 An''warn''t he a lookin''right at dis gang heah, an''warn''t he jes''a reachin''for''em? 5818 And so you would n''t even part with Clay? 5818 And what do you suppose they burn? 5818 And what do you think you''ll do, Washington, when you get to Hawkeye? 5818 But as soon as the land is sold----"Emily, were you about to say something? |
5818 | But the Amaranth''s head was almost abreast the Boreas''s stern:"How''s your steam, now, Harry?" |
5818 | Could n''t you write and ask them?" |
5818 | Did n''t he buy, after all? |
5818 | Did n''t he make an offer?" |
5818 | Did you ever see a house afire? |
5818 | Dis Chile would like to know whah we''d a ben now if it warn''t fo''dat prah? |
5818 | Finish your invention for making window- glass opaque?" |
5818 | Folks all well, I suppose? |
5818 | George Davis, the pilot on watch, shouted to the night- watchman on deck:"How''s she loaded?" |
5818 | Hawkins said to himself,"How can a man ever lose faith? |
5818 | Hawkins said:"Washington, my boy, what will you do when you get to be one of the richest men in the world?" |
5818 | He bent over a speaking tube and said:"Who''s on watch down there?" |
5818 | He muttered:"Gone? |
5818 | Here, Jerry, got anything to do? |
5818 | How could you do it, Clay?" |
5818 | How much money have you got?" |
5818 | How was the cottonwood stump on the false point below Boardman''s Island this morning?" |
5818 | How''s your draft?" |
5818 | I suppose you-- you''ll still go, Si?" |
5818 | I wonder what is in the wind? |
5818 | If dey was gals would n''t dey be de SHE- brew chil''en? |
5818 | It is true we are not rich-- but still you are not sorry--- you have n''t any misgivings about the additions?" |
5818 | Like her? |
5818 | Little strangers? |
5818 | Mrs. Hawkins looked up white and despairing:"You threw away this chance, you let this man go, and we in this awful trouble? |
5818 | Mrs. Hawkins sprang in, beaming:"Well, Si?" |
5818 | Now how does that strike you?" |
5818 | Offer? |
5818 | Old Damrell said:"Tha hain''t no news''bout the jedge, hit ai n''t likely?" |
5818 | Rheumatism? |
5818 | Sleep? |
5818 | Tell me-- is anything the matter?" |
5818 | The boat was a moving earthquake by this time:"How is she now?" |
5818 | The captain spoke through the tube:"What steam are You carrying?" |
5818 | The"old man"spoke through the tube:"What is she- carrying now?" |
5818 | Then I suppose you''ll finish your plan of coloring hen''s eggs by feeding a peculiar diet to the hen?" |
5818 | Then he said:"Can I get well? |
5818 | Three years of introductory trade in the orient and what will be the result? |
5818 | Washington, Emily, do n''t you know me? |
5818 | Well; do you know, they''ve quit burning wood in some places in the Eastern States? |
5818 | Whah was yo''eyes? |
5818 | What has started this sudden excitement about iron? |
5818 | Where are the papers?--Have you got the papers safe? |
5818 | Why could n''t these things have happened in father''s day? |
5818 | Why what is the republic of America for an eye- water country? |
5818 | Why woman, do you suppose that man do n''t know what he is about? |
5818 | Willing? |
5818 | Wo n''t I fix you, though!--ponies, cows, dogs, everything you can think of that''ll delight a child''s heart- and-- Why how''s this? |
5818 | Would I go to all that trouble and bother for the poor crumbs a body might pick up in this country? |
5818 | You would n''t sell one of them at a good round figure?" |
5818 | an''a goin''on turrible-- an''do de Lord carry on dat way''dout dey''s sumfin do n''t suit him? |
5818 | he''ll be back here tomorrow, sure, and take my offer; take it? |
36188 | Did he do this? 36188 Did you find anything at the close of it that you did not like? |
36188 | From what source did the Military Commission** derive their authority? |
36188 | Mr. Bingham( interrupting).--And not crimes? 36188 Mr. Bradley: And offered it once and withdrew it? |
36188 | Q.--Do you know Mr. Weichman? 36188 Q.--Do you remember any occasion-- some dinner occasion? |
36188 | Q.--I understood you to say that it was a subject of general conversation among the rebel officers? 36188 Q.--Were you in Carroll prison with him? |
36188 | Who will dare to say that in the time of civil war no person shall be deprived of life, liberty and property, without due process of law? 36188 : Conspiracy, Murder, Attempt at murder, Lying in wait? 36188 Again we ask why? 36188 And now what shall be said as to this taking of human life? 36188 And what shall we say of William H. Seward? 36188 But does it? 36188 But we ask what reason had theGreat War Minister""to perpetrate so pitiless an outrage?" |
36188 | But where was Booth? |
36188 | But who remains in the room, meets with the Court and participates in its secret and solemn deliberations? |
36188 | But why was the resurrection delayed until February, 1873? |
36188 | Could the fatuity of folly farther go? |
36188 | Did you find at the end of the record a recommendation to mercy in the case of Mrs. Surratt that the President never saw? |
36188 | Does this mean that Speed was an unseen spectator of the confidential interview, and witnessed the writing of the death- warrant? |
36188 | Ewing.--Do you base it, then, only on the law of nations? |
36188 | Ewing.--I should like an answer to my question, if it is to be given: How many crimes are my clients charged with and being tried for? |
36188 | Ewing.--Is that all the answer to the question? |
36188 | Ewing.--Or whether they are charged with four distinct crimes in this one charge? |
36188 | How? |
36188 | If the sick President did not carefully scrutinize the papers, was that the Judge- Advocate''s fault? |
36188 | In the meantime, the city, and even the whole country to its very borders, were agitated by the question: What is to be the fate of Mrs. Surratt? |
36188 | Is it so?" |
36188 | Is she too ironed? |
36188 | Is this in truth a sufficient explanation? |
36188 | Johnson.--Is the opinion here to which the objection refers? |
36188 | Johnson.--May I ask who the member of the Court is that makes that objection? |
36188 | Maintaining the most rigorous allegiance to the simple unadulterated truth, what can be said? |
36188 | The Shylocks of the days of arbitrary power dropped their sharpened knives and ejaculated,"Is that the law?" |
36188 | The grand question still remains, Was the judgment just? |
36188 | The only question about it which could any longer agitate the people was, had it been suppressed? |
36188 | WAS IT NOT MURDER? |
36188 | Was She Ironed? |
36188 | Was it not Murder? |
36188 | Was it to forestall a last possible effort of reckless and suicidal despair? |
36188 | What are we to think of the complaint of a Union General, that"a rebel party"fired( first? |
36188 | What conceivable motive, we ask again, to invent such a story-- so easy of refutation, so ruinous to himself, if refuted? |
36188 | What in Mars''name did this warrior expect? |
36188 | What more could the successor of the murdered Lincoln want? |
36188 | When he bearded the President in his Cabinet? |
36188 | When he defied him in the War Department, and scattered his missive of removal to the winds? |
36188 | When was he taken with it? |
36188 | Where can we look in the history of the world for a parallel to such a spectacle? |
36188 | Where now was the redoubtable Bingham who, over and over again, had assured the Commission he guided of the unmistakable guilt of all these persons? |
36188 | Who but Recorder Joseph Holt, the head of the Bureau of Military Justice, the left hand of Stanton as Baker was his right? |
36188 | Who gives to the Court the jurisdiction to decide upon the moral character of the counsel who may appear before them? |
36188 | Who makes them the arbiters of the public morality and professional morality? |
36188 | Why consult his confidential advisers after he had decided the whole matter? |
36188 | Why did he not at that crisis come forward with the proof of which the Judge- Advocate was so dreadfully in need? |
36188 | Why did he not"make public"what Seward had told him, while Seward was living? |
36188 | Why did n''t you bring it in? |
36188 | Why did n''t you put that record in evidence, and let us have it here?" |
36188 | Why did not his former assistant even relieve his tremendous anxiety by telling him that he had evidence which would blow the calumny into the air? |
36188 | Why may he not have been bad enough to suppress the recommendation? |
36188 | Why should Bingham have obeyed the"advice,"even if given by Stanton so long before? |
36188 | Why should he not have kept back the timorous suggestion of five officers, who were so soft- hearted as to"discriminate"as to sex? |
36188 | Why, then, do we hear nothing from Judge Bingham for three years more? |
36188 | but that when"it became his duty as an officer to fire upon a rebel party"the rebel party fired) back? |
36188 | e._, the Rebellion) he entered into it to aid it, did he not?" |
36188 | where Atzerodt? |
36188 | where Herold? |
20290 | And now, gentlemen of the Convention,said he,"what do we want?" |
20290 | Are you aware, General,said the Senator,"that the Attorney- General must represent the Government in the Supreme Court?" |
20290 | But did you know that he must there meet Daniel Webster, Reverdy Johnson, and other leading lawyers? |
20290 | But,persisted Tucker,"will you love me when you get to be President?" |
20290 | Can there,said he with dramatic effect,"be a point of pride against laying upon that sacred soil to- day the flag for which our fathers died? |
20290 | Colonel B., will you not have a bone? |
20290 | Colonel E., will you help to that chicken- pie before you? |
20290 | Do n''t it distress you,said the Boston maiden,"to have Mr. Clay gamble?" |
20290 | Do n''t you remember our conversations during the long walks we took together last summer at Newport, while in attendance on Story''s court? |
20290 | Do you mean,said Mr. Brown,"to assert that what I have said is false?" |
20290 | Douglas,says Tucker,"will you_ always_ love me?" |
20290 | Have you the papers? |
20290 | Is the demand for the previous question seconded? |
20290 | Mr. Thompson,interrupted Mr. Devens,"how long since have they been wearing spurs in the navy?" |
20290 | My dear Walker,said he, in amazement,"what is the matter?" |
20290 | Nor anything to drink? |
20290 | Then it may be the specie circular? |
20290 | Well, sir,said he, in an angry tone,"you are the man who had the audacity to disfigure Old Ironsides?" |
20290 | Well,good- naturedly replied Old Hickory,"do n''t I deserve just as much credit for picking out the man who could write it?" |
20290 | Well,said Mr. Wade,"what can I do for you? |
20290 | What do we want? |
20290 | What do you want me to do for you? |
20290 | What is it, then? |
20290 | What is to be done? |
20290 | What new part will Roscius next enact? |
20290 | What sort of a man is General Pierce? |
20290 | What was it? |
20290 | What,retorted Mr. Clay,"can you look me in the face, sir, and say that you never used that language?" |
20290 | Who is that lady? |
20290 | ''And why,''the monarch cried,''Desire again to share life''s toils?'' |
20290 | ''My girl,''said I,''how deep''s the water and what''s the price of butter?'' |
20290 | ''Well, what of that? |
20290 | ''Wha''ll be King but Charley?'' |
20290 | ''What on earth is the matter with your chief?'' |
20290 | ----, can you call again?'' |
20290 | A sharp witted opponent, to draw him out asked:"Should n''t niggers be permitted to sit at the table with white folks, on steamboats and at hotels?" |
20290 | And why did I not, sir? |
20290 | Are you in the business of shelving papa? |
20290 | B., you have absented yourself from the House during its sittings, contrary to law, and without leave of the House; what excuse have you to offer?" |
20290 | Blair?" |
20290 | But how could we retreat? |
20290 | Cutting, in a sneering tone,"that the gentleman from New York rose for?" |
20290 | General Jackson, who was escorting a lady, promptly extended his hand, saying pleasantly:"How do you do, Mr. Adams? |
20290 | General Thomas arose, and looking him in the eye, replied,"I have said so; do you wish to know on what authority?" |
20290 | Had a good v''yage?" |
20290 | Have n''t we( hic) had a turn( hic) over, gentlemen?" |
20290 | He immediately inquired:"Is this Doniphan, who made that splendid march across the plains and swept the swift Comanches before him?" |
20290 | He soon gathered up, when the following colloquy ensued:"Well, driver( hic), we''ve had quite a turn( hic) over, haint we?" |
20290 | How could we make peace? |
20290 | How did you find the roads from Lexington to here?" |
20290 | How much is it?" |
20290 | I asked him,''What are you suffering from?'' |
20290 | I told him what I wanted, and supposed I was going to get a direct answer, when, what do you think? |
20290 | I wonder whether he knows himself what he is doing? |
20290 | If the rest of the world have not learned that lesson, how shall they teach us? |
20290 | It is contagious, I believe?" |
20290 | It was inquired how Sam had always so much to eat? |
20290 | Me, who was a Whig when you gentlemen were riding cornstalk horses in your fathers''barnyards?" |
20290 | Meeting his old and intimate friend, General Armstrong, the next day, the President said,"Well, Bob, what do the people say of my message?" |
20290 | One spree at Johnny Coyle''s; one spree at Johnny Coyle''s; And who would not be glad to join a spree at Johnny Coyle''s?" |
20290 | Or,"I received some fine cod- fish from Boston to- day, sir; will you dine with me at five o''clock and taste them?" |
20290 | Polk?" |
20290 | Shall the main question be now put?" |
20290 | She looked up with apparent astonishment and inquired,''Is that all?'' |
20290 | Sir, the gentleman says he is reminded by my speech of the''nursery rhyme,''''Who shot Cock Robin? |
20290 | Such a motion having been made in one case, a voice cried out in the confusion which filled the chamber:"How are you going to do it?" |
20290 | The young lady, in her Puritan simplicity, inquired:"Is card- playing a common practice here?" |
20290 | Then, turning to the other lady, he asked,"Will you introduce your friend?" |
20290 | They circulated large editions of a tract by Horace Greeley, entitled,"Why am I a Whig?" |
20290 | This attention disturbed the sleeper, who gave a loud snort, when the boy jumped back and said,"You would n''t bite a blind boy, would you?" |
20290 | This region of savages and wild beasts, of deserts of shifting sands and whirlwinds of dust, of cactus and prairie dogs? |
20290 | Turning to Mr. Wade, he exclaimed:"Surely, you will not prevent me from taking my old black mammy with me?" |
20290 | Upon what terms? |
20290 | Was there ever witnessed such a barefaced corruption in any country before?" |
20290 | What Representative could vote against the claim of a man whose money he had been winning, in small sums, it is true, all winter? |
20290 | What became of the ten tribes? |
20290 | What can we ever hope to do with the western coast, a coast of three thousand miles, rock- bound, cheerless, uninviting, and not a harbor on it? |
20290 | What of future hopes? |
20290 | What of it?" |
20290 | What of past glories? |
20290 | What use have we for this country?" |
20290 | What was to be done? |
20290 | What will become of public liberties? |
20290 | Where is to be your boundary line? |
20290 | Where the end of the principles we shall have to give up? |
20290 | Who bids?" |
20290 | Why do n''t he mind his own business?'' |
20290 | Why do you take off your coat here?" |
20290 | Why, Mr. Wright, do you not know that he carries more than a pound of British lead in his body?" |
20290 | [?] |
20290 | he exclaimed,"with this vast, worthless area? |
20290 | unwhig me? |
20290 | what do you want?" |
20290 | yes,"replied Mr. Wade,"you run the cook- shop down- stairs, do n''t you?" |
5819 | Abolish''n wan''t it? 5819 And thee wo n''t go?" |
5819 | And when thee has got the education thee wants, and lost all relish for the society of thy friends and the ways of thy ancestors, what then? |
5819 | But how does that concern us? 5819 But in what capacity would I go?" |
5819 | Can''t- take- me? |
5819 | Did thee ever think, Margaret, whether, she can endure being thwarted in an, object on which she has so set her heart, as she has on this? 5819 Harry,"said Philip, after a pause,"what have you got on those big boots for; do you expect to wade ashore?" |
5819 | Has thy mother led a useless life? |
5819 | Have you breakfasted Colonel? |
5819 | Here? |
5819 | How far? |
5819 | I know,said Margaret Bolton, with a half anxious smile, thee chafes against all the ways of Friends, but what will thee do? |
5819 | I reckon you did n''t git them boots no wher''s this side o''Sent Louis? |
5819 | I suppose your capital is largely in your plantation? |
5819 | I suppose, Senator, that you have become acclimated to this country? |
5819 | Is n''t this jolly? |
5819 | Is thee going to the Yearly Meeting, Ruth? |
5819 | Plague? 5819 Ruth?" |
5819 | Take it of course,says Gringo, take anything that offers, why not?" |
5819 | Take it? 5819 Thee will no doubt break things enough when thy time comes, child; women always have; but what does thee want now that thee has n''t?" |
5819 | Well, why do n''t you go into something? 5819 What does this mean? |
5819 | What makes you think the road will go there? 5819 What plague, indeed? |
5819 | What sort of business can a young man go into without capital? |
5819 | What''s jolly? |
5819 | What''s the good, father, of a series of human beings who do n''t advance any? |
5819 | When do you go? |
5819 | Where thee and thy family are known? |
5819 | Why did n''t you take it? |
5819 | Why do n''t you see? 5819 Why should I? |
5819 | Yes, but what is it for, what is it all about? |
5819 | An opening eh?" |
5819 | And if I had a fortune, would thee want me to lead a useless life?" |
5819 | And the lectures, and the dissecting rooms, has thee thought of the dissecting rooms?" |
5819 | And was it all present? |
5819 | And, besides, suppose thee does learn medicine?" |
5819 | Are all books lies? |
5819 | At length she interrupted the conversation by asking,"You''d sell the stock, I suppose, Mr. Bigler, to anybody who was attracted by the prospectus?" |
5819 | Bolton?" |
5819 | Brown?" |
5819 | But he only said,"Has thee consulted thy mother about a career, I suppose it is a career thee wants?" |
5819 | Can such a slight little body endure the ordeal of the preparation for, or the strain of, the practice of the profession?" |
5819 | Did I tell you I had an offer from Bobbett and Fanshaw to go into their office as confidential clerk on a salary of ten thousand?" |
5819 | Did she come to herself? |
5819 | Do all men who wear big diamond breast- pins, flourish their knives at table, and use bad grammar, and cheat?" |
5819 | Does thee think I lack nerve? |
5819 | Does thee think thee could stand it six months? |
5819 | Even this open declaration of his hospitable intention not being understood the Colonel politely said,"Gentlemen, will you take something?" |
5819 | Everybody liked the young fellow, for how could they help liking one of such engaging manners and large fortune? |
5819 | First visit? |
5819 | For what would there have been to conquer? |
5819 | From the East, perhaps? |
5819 | How does that fruit strike you?" |
5819 | How does that strike your engineering eye, Mr. Thompson? |
5819 | How is that?" |
5819 | How? |
5819 | I would''nt take three fortunes for one little operation I''ve got on hand now-- have anything from the casters? |
5819 | If they were orphans, would they like to be brought up in a Grecian temple? |
5819 | Is he going to start a daily newspaper among the Kick- a- poos?" |
5819 | Is it true that he gave money to help build the pretty little church of St. James the Less, and that he is, one of the vestrymen?" |
5819 | Is that too soon?" |
5819 | Is the pathos in the eyes of the Beatrice Cenci from her guilt or her innocence? |
5819 | Is thy father willing thee should go away to a school of the world''s people?" |
5819 | It occurred to him, now, that the Colonel had not invited him lately-- could he be offended? |
5819 | It''s twenty miles, on the map, off the straight line of the road?" |
5819 | Jo.?" |
5819 | Jo?" |
5819 | Les, see, what state''s Massachusetts in?" |
5819 | Looking for an opening?" |
5819 | Meantime why should they be separated? |
5819 | Meeting the two friends in the lobby one evening, he asked them to give him the time, and added:"Excuse me, gentlemen-- strangers in St. Louis? |
5819 | No? |
5819 | No? |
5819 | One of the men in Third street asked him the other day, whether his was a high church or a low church? |
5819 | Perhaps I ought n''t said anything, but its bound to come out sooner or later, so what is the odds? |
5819 | Ruth turned square round to her mother, and with an impassive face and not the slightest change of tone, said,"Mother, I''m going to study medicine?" |
5819 | Shall we walk?" |
5819 | She caught his arm and cried,"George, how can you joke so cruelly? |
5819 | Stopping here, gentlemen-- stopping at the Southern?" |
5819 | Was her husband ever cold or indifferent? |
5819 | Was n''t it the broadest and the longest street in the world? |
5819 | Was there anything left in her heart but hate and bitterness, a sense of an infamous wrong at the hands of the only man she had ever loved? |
5819 | Was this the plain family dinner? |
5819 | Was woman ever prudent when she loved? |
5819 | What are their opinions to me? |
5819 | What is there to fear in a person dead more than in a person living?" |
5819 | What one useful thing could I do for a living, for the support of mother and the children? |
5819 | What plague?" |
5819 | What would happen to me if thee should lose thy property and die? |
5819 | Where are you going?" |
5819 | Why is thee so discontented?" |
5819 | Why should I rust, and be stupid, and sit in inaction because I am a girl? |
5819 | Will there not always be rosin enough for the squeaking fiddle- bow? |
5819 | You got that basket of champagne? |
5819 | You have n''t looked about any yet, gentlemen? |
5819 | You''d rather sit here in front than go to my apartments? |
5819 | by the way-- New York, did you say? |
5823 | A waste of time, to purify the fountain of public law? 5823 Again I thought, Is this a theatre? |
5823 | And are n''t you tired sometimes of the struggle? |
5823 | Any scruples about capital punishment? |
5823 | Any which? |
5823 | Are you an idiot? |
5823 | Are you cold? |
5823 | Are you comfortable, Laura? |
5823 | But what are the ways? |
5823 | But,asked the Squire,"do you mean to abandon your land in Pennsylvania?" |
5823 | Can I see her letter? |
5823 | Can you read? |
5823 | Can you read? |
5823 | Can you read? |
5823 | Die and leave the Duchess to fight it out all alone? 5823 Do you mean to insult me?" |
5823 | Do you think you would be contented to live in Fallkill, and attend the county Court? |
5823 | Do you think, Mr. Dilworthy, that the Hawkinses will get much of the money? |
5823 | Does n''t it look like it? |
5823 | Have n''t any particular business, eh? 5823 Have you any conscientious objections to capital punishment?" |
5823 | Have you formed or expressed any opinion on this case, and do you know any of the parties? |
5823 | Have you heard of this case? |
5823 | Have you read anything about this case? |
5823 | How is it that the reports made no impression on you? |
5823 | How long does it take to disinfect itself of these minor impurities? |
5823 | I do n''t know, she has a kind of beauty-- she is not like--''Not like Alice?" |
5823 | I say, do you know what an oath is? |
5823 | I''m afraid you could n''t go down very far in four hours-- could you? |
5823 | Is she as beautiful as the newspapers say she is? |
5823 | It goes up into the dozens, does it? |
5823 | Now, Roberts, you are sure about this? |
5823 | Oh, bother the effect!--What is it they do do? 5823 Oh, yes it can, too""Why, how?" |
5823 | On what, for instance, just now? |
5823 | Own some terriers, eh? 5823 Then why waste all the session in that tomfoolery of trying members?" |
5823 | Tired? 5823 Well wo n''t it expel anybody?" |
5823 | Well, at last, what do you think happened? 5823 Well, what did Congress do?" |
5823 | Well, when nobody is expelled, what does the country think then? |
5823 | Well? |
5823 | Were there no combinations, no railroad jobs, no mining schemes put through in connection with the election? 5823 What for? |
5823 | What is to hinder having a home of my, own? |
5823 | What is your business? |
5823 | What is your reason for supposing that there is coal there? |
5823 | What sort of a home is it for the wife whose husband is always away riding about in his doctor''s gig? |
5823 | What-- sure that it''s coal? |
5823 | When did you strike it? |
5823 | Who does it have a good moral effect on? |
5823 | Who will pay for the sign, Ruth? |
5823 | Why, do you suppose they will hang a woman? 5823 Would this feeling rather incline you against a capital conviction?" |
5823 | Would you object to finding a person guilty-- of murder on evidence? |
5823 | You do n''t mean to say,asked Philip,"that he went in without paying anything?" |
5823 | Am I in some far- off monarchy, looking upon little princes and princesses? |
5823 | Am I in some strange foreign clime where the children are marvels that we know not of? |
5823 | Am I nothing-- to you?" |
5823 | And can you eat any thing?" |
5823 | And what do you think it was? |
5823 | And would you want me to be dependent, Philip?" |
5823 | At the same moment the lady in the bonnet advanced towards him and said something like,"George, will you go with me?" |
5823 | But thee did n''t listen to him again?" |
5823 | But what if he did? |
5823 | But, Ruth, do you think you would be happier or do more good in following your profession than in having a home of your own?" |
5823 | Coal? |
5823 | Come, now, how do they proceed?" |
5823 | Come, what is the matter? |
5823 | Could Laura have run away with him? |
5823 | Did anybody tell you to say you had no opinion about it?" |
5823 | Did he ever hear of this case? |
5823 | Did he not know that the very"spittoon"which his judgeship used cost the city the sum of one thousand dollars? |
5823 | Did it last year? |
5823 | Do n''t you see how our bad luck has worked on me? |
5823 | Do they say I shot him?". |
5823 | Do you suppose they will be so barbarous as that?" |
5823 | Do you think a Congress of ours could convict the devil of anything if he were a member?" |
5823 | Had he not helped to build and furnish this very Court House? |
5823 | Had the flight anything to do with Selby? |
5823 | Has n''t it good timber, and does n''t the railroad almost touch it?" |
5823 | Have not these big babies with beards filled all literature with their outcries, their griefs and their lamentations? |
5823 | Have you any conscientious scruples about capital punishment?" |
5823 | Have you ever heard of this case?" |
5823 | Hawkins?" |
5823 | He was about to be sworn, when the district attorney turning to him carelessly, remarked,"Understand the nature of an oath?" |
5823 | Hold on a bit? |
5823 | How do they proceed? |
5823 | I ask you, my little friends, What did my consciousness reply? |
5823 | I have been asking myself as I sat here, Where am I? |
5823 | I wonder if Mr. Bolton''would rather sell out or work it?" |
5823 | In Harry''s- room on the table Philip found this note:"Dear Mr. Brierly:--Can you meet me at the six o''clock train, and be my escort to New York? |
5823 | Is it a concert or a gilded opera? |
5823 | Is it nothing to show a disposition to sift things and bring people to a strict account? |
5823 | Is it some other vain, brilliant, beautiful temple of soul- staining amusement and hilarity? |
5823 | Is this woman a specimen of your western friends?" |
5823 | It shall never be said that Beriah Sellers--Come in?" |
5823 | Keep a rat pit?" |
5823 | Laura''s only reply was, very simply,"Did I shoot him? |
5823 | Let''s see?" |
5823 | Ruth, do you believe a woman ever becomes a devil?" |
5823 | Struck it, eh? |
5823 | The University bill was sure to pass this, time, and that would make money plenty, but might not the, help come too late? |
5823 | The attorney sat down, and the clerk called?" |
5823 | The clerk says that the gentleman asked her,"What do you want to see him for?" |
5823 | The man was about to be sworn, when Mr. Braham asked,"Could your father read?" |
5823 | Then what is it? |
5823 | Then what suggested it to you to volunteer that remark?" |
5823 | Then where am I? |
5823 | We took it to be that""Did you from the first?" |
5823 | Well, what''s your general business? |
5823 | What are you wilting down like that, for? |
5823 | What did my consciousness reply? |
5823 | What do you do for a living?" |
5823 | What else, can we get for you?" |
5823 | What quality is it?" |
5823 | What should you say it was, children? |
5823 | What was Laura''s object in taking Harry? |
5823 | What was it for?" |
5823 | What would he care for it then? |
5823 | When? |
5823 | Where could they, have gone? |
5823 | Where is it? |
5823 | Who would be alive to care for it then? |
5823 | Why, indeed, might we not feel pity for a woman whose brilliant career had been so suddenly extinguished in misfortune and crime? |
5823 | Would Harry be such a fool as to be dragged into some public scandal? |
5823 | Would it never get on? |
5823 | Would the clerk tell him that a lady and gentleman wished to see him for a moment in the parlor? |
5823 | Would you like to try it again in the spring, Phil?" |
5823 | Yes-- where am I? |
55719 | And Cyrus? |
55719 | And if it was n''t for that you''d accept my''proposition''--now-- wouldn''t you? |
55719 | And what was it that you did n''t really believe? |
55719 | And why should you assume that every careless reply I make is a carefully thought out attack on you? |
55719 | And you''re sure she wishes to marry you? |
55719 | Are you trying to make it impossible for us to remain under the same roof? |
55719 | But how about those who have n''t? 55719 But how are they to compete with the young married women if they do n''t?" |
55719 | But then, everything we get credit for is all yours; ai n''t it, pa? |
55719 | But why do you rave to me? |
55719 | But why on earth did n''t you cable us? |
55719 | But why? |
55719 | Certainly, I sha n''t leave-- why should I? |
55719 | Cold, because we do n''t set ourselves on fire? |
55719 | Did you ever try? |
55719 | Did you get it for him? |
55719 | Do n''t you think your vanity makes you morbid? |
55719 | Do you believe us? |
55719 | Do you deny that it''s true? |
55719 | Do you love him, Nadeshda-- really? |
55719 | Do you think so? |
55719 | Do you wish something? |
55719 | Does Nadeshda know you are n''t rich? |
55719 | Good ride? |
55719 | He''s big and strong and sensible; and what more does a woman usually ask for? 55719 He''s_ so_ clever?" |
55719 | I had a reason for it-- didn''t Nadeshda tell you what it was? |
55719 | I know I''m unfortunate in trying to express myself to you, but why do you never attribute to me anything but the worst intentions? |
55719 | I suppose you wish me to take charge of your social matters-- relieve you of the burdensome part of entertaining? |
55719 | In what particular sort of folly are you about to embark? |
55719 | Is n''t it stupid, this fussing about being on time? |
55719 | MaBurke asked him,"How did you make out with her folks?" |
55719 | Most of the stiffness is strangeness on both sides, do n''t you think? |
55719 | My dear,she said in French,"what is it? |
55719 | Not even Nadeshda? |
55719 | Oh, has Jessie told you? |
55719 | Really? |
55719 | So you are afraid to marry me for fear people-- your friends-- will say that-- I walked right into the trap? |
55719 | Take a Talltowers when there''s a chance to get one? 55719 Take_ you_?" |
55719 | Then it is n''t because you do n''t want to, but because you do n''t dare to? |
55719 | Then you do n''t intend to have anything to do with me after I''ve crossed the line and become a toiler? |
55719 | Then you do wish to give me a trial? 55719 Then you mean that you''re going to sacrifice my mother''s happiness and mine, simply because you''re afraid of being accused of mercenary motives?" |
55719 | Then you were making me a serious business proposition? |
55719 | Tired, dear? |
55719 | To- morrow-- to- morrow morning? |
55719 | Was there something worrying you? |
55719 | Well, Gus,she said,"has that wild man told you?" |
55719 | Well-- and why did n''t you take me when I finally fell into the trap? |
55719 | What are you talking about, pa? |
55719 | What do such positions pay? |
55719 | What do you mean by that? |
55719 | What do you mean? |
55719 | What is it, dear? 55719 What-- what-- compensation would you expect, may I ask?" |
55719 | Whatever have I got my fool self into? |
55719 | When do you think you could come? |
55719 | When do you wish me to come-- if you do wish it at all? |
55719 | Why did you dislike me at first? |
55719 | Why do you ride in a street- car? |
55719 | Why run such a risk? |
55719 | Why should he? |
55719 | Why should you want-- me? |
55719 | Wo n''t you tell_ me_? 55719 Wo n''t you?" |
55719 | Would n''t you like me to tell mother? |
55719 | Would you object to giving me some idea of what the Burkes pay? |
55719 | Would-- say-- twenty- five dollars a week be-- meet with your views? |
55719 | You had to_ explain_ who a Talltowers is? |
55719 | You think she''ll take me? |
55719 | _ Enjoy_ myself? |
55719 | ''That makes you my wife,''he said in a_ dreadful_ voice-- oh, it was--_magnifique!_--and he said,''Do you understand?'' |
55719 | And I couldn''t-- could I? |
55719 | And after a while the President came and said:"Is this your reception, madam, or is it mine?" |
55719 | And he looked at her in his dumb way and said:"What she''ll do_ next_? |
55719 | And who''d fail to laugh at wit admired by an ambassador? |
55719 | Anybody could see it after talking to either of them for five minutes; yet who could say why? |
55719 | Are those your books?" |
55719 | As I was saying-- or, rather, writing-- Jim stood behind me and said in a husky sort of voice:"You ai n''t goin''to do it, are you, Gus?" |
55719 | Besides, if I do n''t mind, why should you? |
55719 | Burke?" |
55719 | Burke?" |
55719 | But could I? |
55719 | But hearts have a way of finding each other, have n''t they?" |
55719 | But how can we? |
55719 | But if we do n''t send that sort of people to foreign courts, how are we to repay the insults they send us in the form of imbecile attachés?'' |
55719 | But-- do the Daraganes think that Nadeshda is safe from Robert, or have they decided to take him in? |
55719 | But-- is there? |
55719 | Can a man make a more degrading confession than that?" |
55719 | Did you ever see the like? |
55719 | Did you ever wear a Mother Hubbard? |
55719 | Did you see her night before last in that dress of silver spangles like the wonderful skin of some amazing serpent? |
55719 | Every bit of my courage fled, and-- but what''s the use of trying to describe it? |
55719 | Gus, why ca n''t you marry me and let me save you from this just as a brother might save a sister?" |
55719 | Have n''t I seen, day after day, how you''ve done everything you could to spare her-- how you''ve worn yourself out?" |
55719 | Have they some sort of understanding? |
55719 | I like ceremony, do n''t you?" |
55719 | I said:"What is it-- ma?" |
55719 | I suddenly said to her:"Jessie, did you ever tell Nadeshda that you had planned to marry me to Cyrus Burke?" |
55719 | I wonder if I am vainer than most people, or does everybody make the same ridiculous discovery about himself when he takes himself off his guard? |
55719 | I wonder if he really cares or did care-- for me, or was it just"ma"trying to get me into the family, and he willing to do anything she asked of him? |
55719 | I wonder why they teach men at Harvard to use their lips in making words as a Miss Nancy sort of man uses his fingers in doing fancy work? |
55719 | I''m not an utter cad-- now, do n''t say,''Are n''t you, sir?''" |
55719 | Jessie overheard him after a while and leaned round and said to me,"How do you and young Mr. Burke get on?" |
55719 | Jessie went on more loudly:"And now that our_ business_ is settled, ca n''t we have some lunch, Mrs. Burke? |
55719 | Let me see, how many sets are there? |
55719 | Miss Talltowers, will you marry me?" |
55719 | Now, whatever did_ that_ mean? |
55719 | Quite a library is n''t it? |
55719 | She went on to me:"You do n''t mind our calling each other pa and ma before you, do you, Miss Talltowers? |
55719 | So, why get headaches learning things? |
55719 | That was rather good for a man who had had less than a month''s real experience with women, was n''t it? |
55719 | The last thing she said to me was:"Do you know when we became engaged? |
55719 | The salary is-- is satisfactory?" |
55719 | To- morrow? |
55719 | What do you think of my hair?" |
55719 | What else could he do? |
55719 | What''s the matter?" |
55719 | When can you come?" |
55719 | Why these little smiles all afternoon whenever you forgot where you were?" |
55719 | Why? |
55719 | Yet, what is one to do? |
5821 | And that we owe the men and the contractors nearly ten thousand dollars besides? |
5821 | And then-- burst up, I suppose? |
5821 | Another appropriation, do n''t you see? |
5821 | Beg pardon? |
5821 | But how great, Laura? 5821 But is it going to be as much as people say it is?" |
5821 | But the poor Injuns-- not that I care much for Injuns-- what did he do for them? |
5821 | But what makes you think so? |
5821 | But will it be soon, Laura? |
5821 | Close? 5821 Did you see Hopperson last night after the congressional prayer meeting?" |
5821 | Do you find it hard and lonely to be so far from your home and friends, Miss Hawkins? |
5821 | Do you think any thing can be done, sir? |
5821 | Free? |
5821 | Have you Taine''s England? |
5821 | He said that, did he? |
5821 | I suppose you heard of the fright we had two weeks ago last Saturday? 5821 If you had n''t levied the assessment you would have been in a close place I judge?" |
5821 | Indeed? 5821 Indeed? |
5821 | Is it not so, mamma? |
5821 | Is there anything more? |
5821 | My daughter,said the Senator, with a grave look,"I trust there was nothing free in his manner?" |
5821 | Not exactly, he said-- shall I tell you what he said? |
5821 | Now does it, indeed? 5821 Now what can the girl mean? |
5821 | Oh, I saw Senator Balloon"He will help us, I suppose? 5821 They ought, ought they? |
5821 | Was that where you learned to play the bones? 5821 What do they say it is?" |
5821 | Why is n''t it? 5821 Why no-- can that be so?" |
5821 | Why so? |
5821 | Why, Phil,she would say,"what puts you in the dumps to day? |
5821 | All--"Indeed?" |
5821 | Am I right?" |
5821 | And then Hicks went on, with a serious air,"Colonel, if you register a letter, it means that it is of value, does n''t it? |
5821 | Are you fond of watering- places, Miss Hawkins?" |
5821 | Are you? |
5821 | B.''?" |
5821 | Brierly?" |
5821 | But how do those letters strike you?" |
5821 | But how would it strike you if I were to say that I was in Washington all the time this bill was pending? |
5821 | But to go back a bit, it begins to look as if you never saw any of that appropriation at all?" |
5821 | But where is it?" |
5821 | But, after all, was that the best way? |
5821 | Confound the girl, he would say to himself, why does she never tease Harry and that young Shepley who comes here? |
5821 | Did Ruth care for anybody at Fallkill? |
5821 | Did Ruth ever speak of him? |
5821 | Did n''t you show him he was in error about the bill?" |
5821 | Did she care for anything except her profession? |
5821 | Did she think Ruth cared for him? |
5821 | Do n''t you think so Colonel?" |
5821 | Do you know any of their signatures? |
5821 | Do you know their handwriting?" |
5821 | Do you know this signature here?--and this one? |
5821 | Do you know who those initials represent-- and are they forgeries?" |
5821 | Do you like winter, Miss Hawkins?" |
5821 | Do you think I am in love with her?" |
5821 | Does Alice appear to be present when she is absent?" |
5821 | Does he believe in anything?" |
5821 | Does it mend the matter by calling her your sister? |
5821 | Does she think I have turned idiot? |
5821 | Gashly?" |
5821 | Had Ruth a premonition of Philip''s intention, in his manner? |
5821 | Has, a confessor, if she is young and pretty, any feeling? |
5821 | Have n''t you paid the men?" |
5821 | Have you figured up the total of the disbursements I told you of?" |
5821 | He did not make any objections?" |
5821 | He''s a kind of--""Eh? |
5821 | Higgins?" |
5821 | How are we going to pay them when you do n''t honor our drafts?" |
5821 | How do you like Washington?" |
5821 | I can depend on you for that, ca n''t I?" |
5821 | I had to tell him some of the side arrangements, some of the--""You did n''t mention me?" |
5821 | I suppose I did ask you, did n''t I?" |
5821 | I suppose you seldom meet in society now, the people you used to be familiar with twelve or fifteen years ago?" |
5821 | I think we ought all-- to share our pleasures with others, and do what we can to make each other happy, do not you?" |
5821 | I wonder what Dilworthy does think of me anyway? |
5821 | Introductions followed, and then the usual original question,"How do you like Washington, Miss Hawkins?" |
5821 | Is it hymns?" |
5821 | Is n''t that so?" |
5821 | It is part of your business, then?" |
5821 | It is the land that''s to bring the money, is n''t it Laura? |
5821 | Laura--"And Hildebrand and Percy-- are they-- are they like this one?" |
5821 | Let me see-- have I stated all the expenses I''ve been at? |
5821 | Might I ask you to give me the time? |
5821 | Miss Emmeline Gashly--"What and leave poor Johnny Peterson behind?" |
5821 | Mrs. Gashly--"Is it your first visit?" |
5821 | Must you go? |
5821 | No? |
5821 | Oh bless my soul, you ca n''t mean that you have not paid these people?" |
5821 | Oreille?" |
5821 | Oreille?" |
5821 | Said he:"Have you ever read this, ma''m? |
5821 | Sellers took a like amount?" |
5821 | She caught such remarks as,"Who is she?" |
5821 | Some people jump to conclusions without any thought-- you have noticed that?" |
5821 | That''s good economy, is n''t it?" |
5821 | The Senator spoke with feeling, and then added,"I hope you showed Hopperson that our motives were pure?" |
5821 | The appropriation?--that paltry$ 200,000, do you mean?" |
5821 | The porter returned in a minute; and asked whom he would like to see? |
5821 | The president smiled blandly, even sweetly, all through this harangue, and then said:"Is that so?" |
5821 | The words were music to his ear; but what were they compared to the ravishing smile with which she flooded his whole system? |
5821 | Then after a pause-- he did not notice Laura''s smiles"Laura, would you lay the main hall in encaustic tiles, or just in fancy patterns of hard wood?" |
5821 | Then both came forward and the proprietor said:"Is it an American book, ma''m?" |
5821 | Then he said:"Now here, for instance; do you believe that that is a genuine letter? |
5821 | There''s two months''wages due the men, and----""How? |
5821 | There, now-- does that satisfy you?" |
5821 | Was it possible for a gentleman to get even with such a fellow as that conductor on the letter''s own plane? |
5821 | Was n''t it enough to have offered the lady his seat, to have rescued her from an accident, perhaps from death? |
5821 | Was n''t it old what''s his name? |
5821 | Well, was it a myth, or was it a reality? |
5821 | Well, well, well-- how did you ever have the nerve to approach him, of all others?" |
5821 | What did he say?" |
5821 | What woman, under the circumstances, would? |
5821 | What''s the road out?" |
5821 | Whatever become of it?" |
5821 | Why should he have put himself in such a ridiculous position? |
5821 | Why should n''t he speak his mind, and end his doubts? |
5821 | Will it be millions?" |
5821 | You are acquainted with the members down there, of course, else you could not have worked to such advantage?" |
5821 | You can tell me that much, ca n''t you?" |
5821 | You never suspected him?" |
5821 | You remember his saying that, daughter?" |
5821 | You remember, child, your father always admired thunder?" |
5821 | You subscribed for 100 shares of the capital stock, at$ 1,000 a share, I believe?" |
5821 | and what if I added that I put the measure through myself? |
5821 | supplemented by that other usual original question,"Is this your first visit?" |
5821 | that said only the beautiful is useful?" |
5822 | And his wife!--Does he take his family? 5822 And now perhaps you think that if I refuse to support your bill, you will make a grand exposure?" |
5822 | And you believed these slanders? |
5822 | And you do love me a little? |
5822 | Angry? |
5822 | Believe in what? |
5822 | But perhaps you do not know, you who have so much admiration, how sincere and overmastering his love is for you? |
5822 | By the way,asked Harry,"who is that rather handsome party that''s hanging''round Laura? |
5822 | Can I help it if they are attentive, can I be rude? 5822 Col. Selby, is it not?" |
5822 | Did I? |
5822 | Did Senator Bland? |
5822 | Did he copy your speech for you? |
5822 | Did you see those Japs, Miss Leavitt? |
5822 | Did you send for we merely to insult me? 5822 Did you? |
5822 | Do n''t you think he is distinguished looking? |
5822 | Do you know him? |
5822 | Do you? 5822 Does he know many Southerners?" |
5822 | Does he want any capital? 5822 Excuse my bluntness,"he continued,"but would the knowledge of his love; would his devotion, make any difference to you in your Washington life?" |
5822 | I suppose, though, you do n''t see much of the old rebel element? |
5822 | In respect to what? |
5822 | Indeed? 5822 Is anything uncommon going on?" |
5822 | It''s who? |
5822 | Laura? 5822 Miss Hawkins, what do yo mean by such talk as that?" |
5822 | No, is it? |
5822 | Ruth,said he one day when he was getting to be quite himself,"I believe in it?" |
5822 | Treat you how? |
5822 | Uncle, you and Brother Balaam are bosom friends-- why do n''t you get his paper to persecute us, too? |
5822 | Very well, I will do it-- but why not tell me how you imagine it is going to help you? |
5822 | Vote for a fr-- for a measure which is generally believed to be at least questionable? 5822 Washington weather generally can not be very congenial to you?" |
5822 | Well if he wants to make a great speech why does n''t he do it? |
5822 | Well if it was only a joke, why did you make a serious matter of it? 5822 Well, suppose it were a fraud-- which I feel able to deny-- would it be the first one?" |
5822 | Well, what WOULD have been the result? |
5822 | Well, would you mind telling me your opinion of it? |
5822 | Well? |
5822 | What do people say? |
5822 | What do they say? |
5822 | What is that? |
5822 | What is, dear? |
5822 | Who is he? 5822 Why do you treat me so?" |
5822 | Why, do you remember that yet, Miss Hawkins? 5822 Why, what is it, sis? |
5822 | With you? 5822 You do n''t say so? |
5822 | You know my bill-- the Knobs University bill? |
5822 | ; what would have been the result?" |
5822 | A suggestion came into her mind presently and she said:"Ca n''t you fight against his great Pension bill and, bring him to terms?" |
5822 | And a look of bitterness coming into her face-- does the fool think he can escape so? |
5822 | And besides, if I had been inclined to forget, I-- did you not give me something by way of a remembrancer?" |
5822 | And did you wake me sir? |
5822 | And if I win the game, will it be worth its cost after all? |
5822 | And what have rest and contentment to do with love? |
5822 | And why did n''t he kill me? |
5822 | And you think I will have it; George? |
5822 | And you''ve been here a week, Grace, and do n''t know? |
5822 | At breakfast she asked if any one had heard any unusual noise during the night? |
5822 | But have you kept that all this time?" |
5822 | But how is this going to benefit you, after I have managed it? |
5822 | But is n''t there something else you could give me, too?" |
5822 | But seriously, you do not forget that some of the best and purest men in Congress took that stock in that way?" |
5822 | But what could I do? |
5822 | But would one be in earnest about so farcical a thing?" |
5822 | Come, now, does n''t it improve?" |
5822 | Could he not go into some State where it would not take much time? |
5822 | Could it be possible that he was seriously affected? |
5822 | Did I say he? |
5822 | Did he not belong to her by virtue of her overmastering passion? |
5822 | Did this seem like a damnable plot to Laura against the life, maybe, of a sister, a woman like herself? |
5822 | Did you see his wife?" |
5822 | Do you recognize this?" |
5822 | Do you suppose he was ever approached, on the subject?" |
5822 | Do you think that color makes any difference, Mr. Hawkins? |
5822 | Had he not confessed it himself? |
5822 | Had she not a right to him? |
5822 | Had there not always been some way out of such scrapes? |
5822 | Have you any friend whom you would like to present with a salaried or unsalaried position in our institution?" |
5822 | Have you nothing to say?" |
5822 | Hawkins?" |
5822 | Hawkins?" |
5822 | Hawkins?" |
5822 | He could deal with those millions virtuously, and withal with ability, too-- but of course you would rather he had a salaried position?" |
5822 | How am I to move my crops? |
5822 | How came you here? |
5822 | How could the Colonel manage to free himself from his wife? |
5822 | I have been married once-- is that nothing in my favor?" |
5822 | I never wear an umbrella in the house-- did anybody''notice it''? |
5822 | I say''Well?'' |
5822 | I thought you were--""You thought I was dead? |
5822 | I was married, and--""And your wife still lives?" |
5822 | I wonder if he hates me as I do him?" |
5822 | If he deserved punishment, what more would you have? |
5822 | Indeed? |
5822 | Is it possible the town is saying all these things about me? |
5822 | Is it possible, she was thinking, that this base wretch, after, all his promises, will take his wife and children and leave me? |
5822 | Laura looked up quickly, as if about to return an indignant answer to such impertinence, but she only said,"Well, what of Col. Selby, sauce- box?" |
5822 | M.?" |
5822 | Mr. Trollop winced-- then he said with dignity:"Miss Hawkins is it possible that you were capable of such a thing as that?" |
5822 | Open your ears; for which of you will stop, The vent of hearing when loud Rumor speaks? |
5822 | Perhaps Miss Hawkins can?" |
5822 | Selby?" |
5822 | Selby?" |
5822 | Shall we bury the hatchet and be good friends and respect each other''s little secrets, on condition that I vote Aye on the measure?" |
5822 | Should we leave them ignorant? |
5822 | Should we leave them without tools? |
5822 | Sterling?" |
5822 | Still, what is all this to me? |
5822 | Tell me-- how did you get hold of that page of manuscript? |
5822 | That gawky looking person, with Miss Hawkins?" |
5822 | The law? |
5822 | Two millions? |
5822 | Was not her love for George Selby deeper than any other woman''s could be? |
5822 | Was that what you wanted to see me about?" |
5822 | Was there something good in him, after all, that had been touched? |
5822 | Well? |
5822 | What account should we render to Him of our stewardship? |
5822 | What am I going to do to give her up?" |
5822 | What can I do for you?" |
5822 | What can I do? |
5822 | What did he think the government would offer? |
5822 | What did she care for talk? |
5822 | What did they say as they sat there? |
5822 | What do you propose to do about it?" |
5822 | What do you propose?" |
5822 | What else were they for? |
5822 | What had come over this thrilling young lady- killer? |
5822 | What nothings do people usually say in such circumstances, even if they are three- score and ten? |
5822 | What of it? |
5822 | What was all this for and what does it amount to after all? |
5822 | What was he doing? |
5822 | What would the law do but protect him and make me an outcast? |
5822 | What- asleep? |
5822 | Where did you get it? |
5822 | Where was his coolness? |
5822 | Who is he, Blanche?" |
5822 | Why all these questions? |
5822 | Why did n''t he send his wife home? |
5822 | Why did you get the speech written for you, and then read it in the House without ever having it copied?" |
5822 | Why had he taken no steps to free himself? |
5822 | Would he smile as in the old days when she loved him so; or would he sneer as when she last saw him? |
5822 | Would it be long? |
5822 | Would you-- did you wish me to vote for it? |
5822 | You are not ignorant of his feeling towards you?" |
5822 | You are offended, though, to have me speak of it?" |
5822 | You seem to go the furthest around to get at a thing-- but you are in earnest, are n''t you?" |
5822 | You think I am as powerless as that day I fell dead at your feet?" |
5822 | You think I will let you live with that woman? |
5822 | You thought you were rid of me? |
5822 | You would n''t deceive me, Harry?" |
5822 | Your being with him so much is the town talk, that''s all?" |
6853 | A trunk key? 6853 A vendue?" |
6853 | All right,agreed Bob equably,"I wo n''t kill him-- just nick him in a few places-- how will that do?" |
6853 | And are you sure you have enough money? |
6853 | And does n''t she say she''s found the deed? 6853 And now I think I had better go to the station, after our Betty, do n''t you?" |
6853 | And what are we going to do with a car full of dogs? |
6853 | And you tell Mr. Bender, wo n''t you? 6853 And, Betty, what do you think? |
6853 | Any folded sheets, I mean, or a long envelope? 6853 Are n''t we, Bobby? |
6853 | Are you going right to Washington? |
6853 | Are you going to stay up there all day? |
6853 | Are you hurt? |
6853 | Are you really going, Betty? |
6853 | Been rummaging in my coat pocket, have you? |
6853 | Besides, as the child says, what good would an unrecorded deed do him? 6853 Betty Gordon, is n''t it?" |
6853 | Betty, darling,she said comfortably,"you found your letter on the hall table all right, did n''t you?" |
6853 | Betty, do you know what this young scoundrel is up to? |
6853 | Bob Henderson? 6853 But suppose I should tell you I advised the lad to go there? |
6853 | But was she born in Virginia? |
6853 | But, oh, Bob, you say he was there a month ago? |
6853 | By the way, how are you going to arrange about names? 6853 Ca n''t you make Mr. Peabody see how foolish such an accusation is?" |
6853 | Can I go with you? |
6853 | Can you open the doors? 6853 Could n''t I walk just a little way with you?" |
6853 | Could n''t you all come in to- morrow morning and let me take you up on the roof? |
6853 | Did Bob go to Washington? |
6853 | Did he get my telegram? |
6853 | Did n''t Bob Henderson say where he was going? 6853 Did n''t Bob say where he was going?" |
6853 | Did the lad have money enough? |
6853 | Did you ever see anything like that? 6853 Did you pick up any other papers?" |
6853 | Did you-- did you say Oklahoma? |
6853 | Do I, Louise? 6853 Do n''t suppose Dan told you my name?" |
6853 | Do n''t you feel well? 6853 Do n''t you think,"she began again bravely,"that I had better go to Pineville? |
6853 | Do n''t you want some money? |
6853 | Do you know, I''ve just remembered that I promised to show Libbie how to make mile- a- minute lace before breakfast? 6853 Do you like to play checkers? |
6853 | Do you ride? |
6853 | Do you suppose we''re going to go past a dog and let it die in the rain? 6853 Do you think Mr. Peabody opened your letter?" |
6853 | Do you think they could get some down to us? 6853 Does your Uncle Dick play?" |
6853 | Does-- does Mrs. Brill know I''m coming? |
6853 | Esther, are you hurt? |
6853 | Flatly refuse to mind, do you? 6853 For goodness sake,"prodded Bobby impatiently,"what were you doing back there? |
6853 | Going? |
6853 | Good gracious, Dad, do n''t tell me I''ve forcibly run off with a girl? 6853 Got a nice day for your trip, have n''t you? |
6853 | Had a full day? |
6853 | Have n''t I just told you there is nothing to go in? 6853 Have we kidnapped anybody?" |
6853 | Have you had any supper? |
6853 | Have you had your breakfast? |
6853 | How did you dare to hold back mail? 6853 How did you ever happen to come here, Bob?" |
6853 | How did you get away from him? |
6853 | How do we get out? |
6853 | How do you expect me to get any sleep with that racket going on? 6853 How do you know he has n''t got it?" |
6853 | How soon are you going to start? 6853 How''d you find out, Joseph?" |
6853 | How-- how did it happen? |
6853 | Hungry? 6853 I beg your pardon?" |
6853 | I do n''t suppose you could be persuaded to go to see''The Rose- Pink Curtains''with us, and have a sundae afterward? |
6853 | I hope you did n''t expect them to get up and make a speech? |
6853 | I wonder if it''s all right to interrupt him? |
6853 | I''d sail right into a cloud and see-- What was that? |
6853 | Is he badly injured? 6853 Is he hurt?" |
6853 | Is that a horse? |
6853 | Is that so? |
6853 | Is that so? |
6853 | Is that something sticking out of the mail box? 6853 Is that where they had training camps during the war?" |
6853 | Know him? |
6853 | Let me go with you, Betty? |
6853 | Let me take them one at a time and tidy them up? |
6853 | Libbie, what did you see? |
6853 | Long as you''re going over to Hagar''s Corners you wo n''t mind giving me a lift, will you? |
6853 | Looks as if we used it regular every afternoon, does n''t it? 6853 May I present my husband? |
6853 | No troubles this bright morning? |
6853 | No? 6853 Now how much do you know?" |
6853 | Now where are we going? |
6853 | Of course I remember it; what about it? |
6853 | Oh, Betty, do you see any office that looks like Sherwood and David on this board? |
6853 | Oh, Betty, suppose he wanted to drag you back to Bramble Farm? |
6853 | Oh, Momsie, is n''t this Betty Littell? 6853 Oh, ca n''t you stop the car and go down and get him? |
6853 | Once more I ask you,he shook Bob violently,"are you going to hand over that paper? |
6853 | Our guests have n''t seen the White House yet, have they? |
6853 | Read to me? |
6853 | See that man who is shouting at the clerk? |
6853 | Shall I take you on in? |
6853 | Something missing out o''your pocket? |
6853 | Suppose I told you, in strictest confidence, young lady, for I think you''re a true friend to him, that he has relatives out there? 6853 That''s all we need, is n''t it, Bob? |
6853 | The coat the letter fell out of? |
6853 | Then you can dance? |
6853 | They''re both clean, are n''t they? 6853 Uncle has n''t a fever or anything, has he?" |
6853 | Was he in an accident? |
6853 | Was he in bed when you came down, Ethan? |
6853 | Well, could n''t you lend me your handkerchief, Carter? |
6853 | Well, folks, all talked out? |
6853 | Well? |
6853 | What are you going for? |
6853 | What are you going to do, Betty? |
6853 | What are you two plotting? |
6853 | What did you come for? 6853 What do you suppose he is arguing about?" |
6853 | What do you think he accused me of this time? 6853 What do you think this is-- a boiler factory? |
6853 | What good could the firemen do? |
6853 | What has Bob to do with it? |
6853 | What in the wide world are we going to do without you? |
6853 | What is Fort Myer? |
6853 | What lies heavy on your mind this evening? |
6853 | What on earth do you want to make lace for? |
6853 | What time would be most convenient to take my trunk over to Glenside or to Hagar''s Corners? |
6853 | What you carrying? |
6853 | What you lost, Joseph? |
6853 | What''ll I do? 6853 What''ll we knock a hole in the roof with?" |
6853 | What''s the matter? |
6853 | What, Bob? |
6853 | Where are you going? 6853 Where are you going?" |
6853 | Where did he shake you? 6853 Where did you live then?" |
6853 | Where did you say Bob was going? |
6853 | Where do we go to send a telegram, Momsie? |
6853 | Where do you suppose she is hiding? |
6853 | Where do you suppose your uncle is? |
6853 | Where is he? |
6853 | Where''s Trowbridge? |
6853 | Where? 6853 Who else would?" |
6853 | Who said I was going to prison? 6853 Who''s been holding back mail? |
6853 | Whose glasses, and what''s been in''em? |
6853 | Why did you keep my letter? |
6853 | Why do n''t you sit there and talk? 6853 Why does he keep insisting Bob stole it? |
6853 | Why in tarnation does n''t that good for nothing bring in the milk? |
6853 | Why should I start an argument with Fred? 6853 Why should you pick out a jeweler''s office and creep in through the window? |
6853 | Why would n''t you leave''em? |
6853 | Why, a vendue is a-- a-- what is it, Bob? |
6853 | Why, what is the matter? |
6853 | Will the station agent do it, do you suppose? 6853 You all agree to the ladder if this ai n''t a go?" |
6853 | You believe in starting young, do n''t you? 6853 You can walk from there to that pretty tea- room-- what is its name, Bobby?--can''t you?" |
6853 | You do n''t suppose Mr. Peabody will stay in Washington, hunting for you, do you? |
6853 | You do n''t suppose he is down here after you, do you? |
6853 | You do n''t want this one, do you? |
6853 | You expect me to believe that? |
6853 | You know a boy named Bob Henderson, do n''t you? |
6853 | You''ll come and talk to him, wo n''t you? |
6853 | You''re mother''s only son, are n''t you, dear? |
6853 | You''re not going to walk to Glenside to- night to try to get a team to come after you? |
6853 | You''re packing then? |
6853 | You''ve got a way with children, have n''t you? |
6853 | You- all get a nice view? |
6853 | ''Member that lady with the two children what racketed all day and all night? |
6853 | All fixed? |
6853 | All the through trains stop at Hagar''s Corners, do n''t they? |
6853 | And now you''ll go round with us, wo n''t you?" |
6853 | And the other girl-- where do you suppose she is?" |
6853 | And what harm could it do Bob? |
6853 | And what kind of housecleaning did they have in those days? |
6853 | And who are the Littells?" |
6853 | And why, oh, why did that poorhouse man have to tell where Bob had gone?" |
6853 | And you can wear-- let me see, what can you wear?" |
6853 | And you''d feel cheap, would n''t you, if you had to come back after you ran away because you did n''t have enough money? |
6853 | And, Bob, why do n''t they send for the fire department?" |
6853 | And, say, what do you think I heard over in Trowbridge?" |
6853 | Anybody hurt?" |
6853 | Are n''t you going back?" |
6853 | Are there not stairs?" |
6853 | Are you all right?" |
6853 | Are you going out to the barn or not?" |
6853 | Bender?" |
6853 | Betty, for mercy''s sake, what are you staring at?" |
6853 | But if he came down to Washington and said pointblank to you that you took it, it looks as if he thought you did, does n''t it?" |
6853 | But perhaps the nerves of the young ladies are not equal to a climb down the fire escape? |
6853 | But we''ll meet you for the sundae; wo n''t we, girls?" |
6853 | CHAPTER XI A SERIOUS MIX- UP"You are Betty, are n''t you?" |
6853 | Could n''t we stay overnight with Doctor Guerin?" |
6853 | Could n''t you call a policeman?" |
6853 | Derby?" |
6853 | Did he mention anything about leaving Washington?" |
6853 | Did he-- was he angry?" |
6853 | Did you get out to Oklahoma?" |
6853 | Did you know anything about that, Betty?" |
6853 | Do n''t you want to bid for me Bob, to keep him in the dark?" |
6853 | Do you know a man in Washington who keeps a bookshop? |
6853 | Do you know?" |
6853 | Do you mean to tell me they let that man go without notifying you? |
6853 | Do you suppose something''s happened to him?" |
6853 | Do you suppose we''d let a young girl like you knock around alone in a city? |
6853 | Do you think he may be sick in some hospital and not able to communicate with us?" |
6853 | Do you think it will be all right not to ask him in, Betty?" |
6853 | Do you think we had better go?" |
6853 | Do you want to learn to cook, Betty? |
6853 | Eh? |
6853 | Had some one been tampering with the lock? |
6853 | Had they made a mistake and brought her to the wrong place? |
6853 | Have n''t you made a mistake? |
6853 | Have you heard from Bramble Farm or Uncle Dick? |
6853 | He did n''t say he had a son, but I wonder----Oh, Bobby, the Jesuit fathers did n''t sail down the Potomac, did they?" |
6853 | He would n''t hurt a flea, would he, Elinor?" |
6853 | His mother''s two sisters, both of''em living on the old homestead? |
6853 | How about that?" |
6853 | How does he look?" |
6853 | How long have you been in Washington? |
6853 | How''s that?" |
6853 | I suppose you think two rows of corn down flat is something to snicker at?" |
6853 | I wonder if he could send Bob back to the poorhouse?" |
6853 | I wonder if the doctor had n''t better see you?" |
6853 | I''m a little bit scared, are n''t you?" |
6853 | Is n''t he a nice baby? |
6853 | Is she pretty-- can you see?" |
6853 | Is that the secretary he bid on at the Faulkner sale?" |
6853 | Looks mighty funny, does n''t it, to be packing up with something pretty valuable missing? |
6853 | Neither of''em married and without near kith or kin so far as they know? |
6853 | Not thinking of going to farming, are you?" |
6853 | Oh, why did n''t she hear from Uncle Dick? |
6853 | Only they are forget- me- nots, are n''t they?" |
6853 | Peabody?" |
6853 | Please, ca n''t I?" |
6853 | Please? |
6853 | Say, girls, did you know Washington gave that to Nellie Custis when she was married? |
6853 | She had turned to compare her wrist- watch with the station clock when a voice at her back said half- doubtfully,"Betty?" |
6853 | Sleep well? |
6853 | Suppose I tell you that the old farm, as I locate it, is in the oil section? |
6853 | Suppose I tell you that?" |
6853 | Suppose he walks up? |
6853 | Suppose the lad is entitled to his mother''s interest in the place? |
6853 | Sure I''m not crippling you, Betsey?" |
6853 | Sure you''re all right?" |
6853 | That is, if it will not upset any one''s plans? |
6853 | The Littells were kindness itself to her, but she craved a familiar face, some one to whom she could say,"Do you remember?" |
6853 | The half- grown boy who accosted them with"What are you doing with our cow?" |
6853 | Unless-- Joseph, have you bought the Warren lots?" |
6853 | Was there a letter for me?" |
6853 | We''re going to- day, are n''t we?" |
6853 | We''re in Virginia, Betty, did n''t you know that?" |
6853 | What do you suppose people in the hotel must think of him?" |
6853 | What earthly use would it be to him? |
6853 | What else did you find connected with weddings, Lib?" |
6853 | What have I done that I should n''t, Bobby?" |
6853 | What on earth does he think I could do with his old deed, anyhow?" |
6853 | What on earth shall I do?" |
6853 | What was it Bobby had called her home? |
6853 | What were you thinking about in such a brown study?" |
6853 | What will Mrs. Littell say? |
6853 | What will she say?" |
6853 | What would I be doing with a paper of yours? |
6853 | What''s Bob stopping for?" |
6853 | What''s his name? |
6853 | What''s wrong, Carter?" |
6853 | When did it happen?" |
6853 | Where did you find her, Betty?" |
6853 | Where was it-- in one of your coat pockets?" |
6853 | Where''s the eats?" |
6853 | Why are n''t you willing to help me go now that the summer is nearly over?" |
6853 | Why did n''t the dub lock it up in his safe?" |
6853 | Why, what''s this?" |
6853 | Wo n''t you go upstairs and lie down and let me do the dishes?" |
6853 | Would that seem funny, eh?" |
6853 | Yes, or no?" |
6853 | You have n''t been making lemonade?" |
6853 | You have your baggage checks, have n''t you, girls?" |
6853 | You know that gray alpaca coat of mine you took the letter from this morning?" |
6853 | You miserable, sneaking loafer, where have you been?" |
6853 | You will take some, wo n''t you?" |
6853 | You would n''t mind if I patted you, would you?" |
6853 | You''re not crying, are you, Betty?" |
6853 | Your husband is n''t a minister, is he?" |
6853 | Your husband missed the elevator, did n''t he?" |
6853 | do n''t you think that''s pretty?" |
6853 | she said impulsively,"What did it-- a stray cow?" |
32556 | A boarding house? |
32556 | About me, Alfy, what could you have been saying about me? |
32556 | Ah, is it so soon? 32556 Alfy, are you sure you are not crazy?" |
32556 | All right,replied Alfy,"do you need me to do up the back of your dress?" |
32556 | An amusing anecdote, and I do n''t doubt a real one,said Aunt Betty, laughing with the others,"but is n''t that a wonderful old fountain? |
32556 | And did you get a room there where Ruth is, Jim? |
32556 | And how about our concert to- night? |
32556 | And how is Miss Ruth, to- day? |
32556 | And what did you think of it, Alfy? |
32556 | And what is this key hanging here for? |
32556 | Are we all here? 32556 Are you all here?" |
32556 | Are you going out in front to sit with your aunt and Alfaretta, after you have finished? |
32556 | Are you going to sing to- day? |
32556 | Are you sure, dear, you have looked all over everything you have? |
32556 | But have n''t you seen enough of the library now? |
32556 | But is n''t it too bad that the locket just disappeared when we needed it? 32556 But, Aunt Betty,"asked Alfy,"what are you going to wear?" |
32556 | Ca n''t we all go? |
32556 | Can I go with you? |
32556 | Can I wear that new pink dress, Aunty? |
32556 | Can any one stay here and read anything they want, and as long as they want? |
32556 | Can it take us back, then? |
32556 | Could n''t you have walked a little faster, Ruth? |
32556 | Dear, dear child, do n''t you know how foolish that was to do? 32556 Did Mr. Sterling have anything to do with trying to get you the place, Jim?" |
32556 | Did anyone in the passenger cars get hurt? |
32556 | Did you come to keep us company all the afternoon? |
32556 | Did you have an uneventful trip? |
32556 | Do n''t the people in New York care for gardens, aunty dear? |
32556 | Do n''t you think it would be real nice if we four went for a drive this afternoon? 32556 Do the Republicans sit on the left of the Speaker here, and the Democrats on the right, as in the House?" |
32556 | Do you and Alfy want to be audience again, while I play over my pieces once more? |
32556 | Do you know their names? 32556 Do you know,"he repeated,"that I would like to render such service that you would never wish for any other servitor?" |
32556 | Do you suppose I can get them here? |
32556 | Do you suppose we have struck another train? |
32556 | Do you think it is going to be real serious? |
32556 | Do you want me to play again in New York? |
32556 | Do you want to see the stage? |
32556 | Do you want your black wrap? 32556 Dorothy dear, whatever made you forget?" |
32556 | Dorothy girl, are you still in bed? |
32556 | Dorothy, child, what ails you? |
32556 | Dorothy, little Dorothy, did n''t you know before? 32556 Go home?" |
32556 | Guess what? |
32556 | Guess what? |
32556 | Have n''t you any business friends in New York? |
32556 | Have you no other proof? |
32556 | How do they use it? |
32556 | How many shall we need? |
32556 | How, oh how, can I get it? 32556 Hurt her? |
32556 | I ca n''t understand it, can you? |
32556 | I suppose I ought to know, but who is the Speaker, and what does he do? |
32556 | I wonder,said Aunt Betty, slowly, for she had been thinking,"I wonder if it could be? |
32556 | I''m not scared, I''m sure of that; but do you think the people will like me? |
32556 | In the taxi? 32556 Is any one hurt?" |
32556 | Is it here? |
32556 | Is n''t the floor lovely? 32556 Is that Benjamin Franklin?" |
32556 | Is there anything else that you would like to have pressed, now that I am working? |
32556 | Is there anything you would like to ask me? |
32556 | Is this right? |
32556 | Is this the place? 32556 It can take back two cars, sir,"answered the conductor,"and would you object, sir, if I put some other passengers in here with you?" |
32556 | It certainly is simple, and I will surely be able to play at the reception to- morrow afternoon? |
32556 | Jim, dear, you too feel sad? |
32556 | Jim, do you want to stay here and be my audience while I practice and tell me what you think of my playing? |
32556 | Let me see, little miss, how about the proof I must have? 32556 Ma, can I have the sampler?" |
32556 | Ma, ma,and Alfy ran in the kitchen calling louder as she went:"Where did you put my raincoat? |
32556 | Ma, who did you say? |
32556 | May I have it? |
32556 | May I have the sampler, Alfy? |
32556 | May I quote for you a little gem that is aptly expressive of my sentiments? |
32556 | Mr. Ludlow,asked Dorothy,"where shall I stand?" |
32556 | No it is n''t, is it Jim? |
32556 | Oh dear, Dorothy did n''t I get you the book to read? |
32556 | Oh, Dorothy,Gerald called back,"when shall I return for you?" |
32556 | Oh, ca n''t I stay and talk? |
32556 | Or did you just wish to hear Dorothy play? |
32556 | Or taken the stage to the station if you were so tired? 32556 Shall I get the stamps?" |
32556 | Shall I get your things all out and have everything all ready for you? |
32556 | Shall we get a Capitol guide? |
32556 | Shall we ride? |
32556 | That does n''t excuse my little girl,remarked Aunt Betty, and turning to Dorothy,"What is it we are going to hear, dearest?" |
32556 | That saves us a good deal of trouble and expense, does n''t it? 32556 Then I may go?" |
32556 | Then do I understand that all Dorothy has to do is to prove she is Dorothy Winchester Calvert and she will come into this inheritance? |
32556 | Then, maybe our floor will not be burned at all? |
32556 | Was n''t that a nice idea to put the flag back there? |
32556 | Well, Alfy, all ready to go home? |
32556 | Well, Dorothy girl,said Aunt Betty, turning to her,"what will it be?" |
32556 | Well, Dorothy, child,asked Mr. Ludlow,"is everything all right? |
32556 | Well, ca n''t my little girl wait till then and see what more, for herself? 32556 Well, have you all selected those you wish?" |
32556 | Well, what next, Dorothy girl? |
32556 | Well, young man, what is it this time? |
32556 | What Hannah? 32556 What about the concert? |
32556 | What are we going to do now? 32556 What are we to do now?" |
32556 | What are you going to put in? |
32556 | What are you talking about? 32556 What did Aunt Betty have to say?" |
32556 | What did Mr. Van Zandt say? |
32556 | What did he want, dear? |
32556 | What did you do with it? |
32556 | What did you see? |
32556 | What did you want him for, Jim? |
32556 | What do you think of me? |
32556 | What do you think of the fire? |
32556 | What does it represent? |
32556 | What dress do you want to wear? |
32556 | What is Alfy talking about, Aunt Betty? |
32556 | What is a mace? |
32556 | What is it you want to say? |
32556 | What is it, ma? |
32556 | What is that star set in the floor for? |
32556 | What is this next room? |
32556 | What kind of ice cream would you like, Alfy? |
32556 | What may they be? |
32556 | What may you want? |
32556 | What shall I do with these? 32556 What time is it, I wonder?" |
32556 | What would you like to have? |
32556 | What''s that? 32556 What''s the matter, Alfy?" |
32556 | When is another train due here? |
32556 | Where did all these statues come from? |
32556 | Where did you have it last? |
32556 | Where do you suppose? |
32556 | Where is Dorothy? 32556 Where is it near?" |
32556 | Where is it? |
32556 | Where is it? |
32556 | Where next? |
32556 | Who are all these statues of? |
32556 | Who gave you those beautiful violets you are wearing, that just match your eyes? |
32556 | Who is it, then, that uses that beautifully carved high backed chair on that little platform there? |
32556 | Who uses them? |
32556 | Whose room is this? |
32556 | Why has the locket gone? |
32556 | Why not ask Mr. Ludlow? 32556 Why not?" |
32556 | Why, Alfy, what have you there? |
32556 | Would n''t it be odd if it was his mother who made this sampler? 32556 Would n''t that be rather lonesome, Miss Ruth?" |
32556 | Would n''t you rather have someone else here with you? |
32556 | Yes, and are you to sing? |
32556 | Yes, and did you see this one? |
32556 | Yes, do you want to come out with me? |
32556 | Yes, where? |
32556 | Yes,answered Aunt Betty,"what is it? |
32556 | You are to play to- night, are you not? |
32556 | You will miss me? |
32556 | You will promise me then? 32556 You will?" |
32556 | And I can start to- morrow-- yes? |
32556 | And can I wear the red hair ribbon Ma Babcock bought me from Liza Jane''s?" |
32556 | And is Mr. Dauntrey there?" |
32556 | And so you think that perhaps Mr. Van Zandt will find out all about poor little Lem''s parents just from that sampler that Alfy found in the attic? |
32556 | And was she very poor-- poorer than we?" |
32556 | And what is the name? |
32556 | And why are all the lights out?" |
32556 | And why did the train lurch so? |
32556 | And you are a solo violinist?" |
32556 | And, my-- what was that in the corner? |
32556 | Are we to stay right where we are, conductor?" |
32556 | Aunt Betty carefully read the letter through and turning to Jim, asked,"What are you going to do about it, my boy?" |
32556 | Aunt Betty, where are you?" |
32556 | Ca n''t think of anyone else writing me, can you? |
32556 | Can we have oysters, Aunt Betty?" |
32556 | Come now, tell me what you want us to dress for?" |
32556 | Could n''t you guess?" |
32556 | Could you care, not as much as I do, now, but just a little?" |
32556 | Could you? |
32556 | Dauntrey?" |
32556 | Did I do better than I did this afternoon before I went in to see Mr. Ludlow, and did you notice the difference in the playing of the last piece?" |
32556 | Did n''t Mr. Ludlow tell you?" |
32556 | Did n''t you hear a knock?" |
32556 | Did they all belong to Washington?" |
32556 | Do you know where it is?" |
32556 | Do you like it? |
32556 | Do you remember, Jim? |
32556 | Do you think it could be possible that this sampler was made by his mother? |
32556 | Do you think it is becoming? |
32556 | Do you think so, Aunt Betty?" |
32556 | Do you think, Jim, that traveling will hurt Aunt Betty?" |
32556 | Do you want to talk business with me?" |
32556 | Dorothy dear, will you see if you can find my glasses? |
32556 | Dorothy finished her piece and then came over and kissed her aunt, saying,"Dear Aunt Betty, have you and Alfy enjoyed yourselves?" |
32556 | Dorothy had risen, and coming to him, placed her hands in his and said,"Is this all true or just a joke?" |
32556 | Dorothy liked to have Jim assume authority over her in this manner, and questioned gayly:"Well, Father Jim, what did he want?" |
32556 | Dorothy looked at the large room and the many chairs and said hesitatingly,"Will it be crowded?" |
32556 | Dorothy, greatly surprised, questioned,"You are coming back, Gerald?" |
32556 | Have I you to thank for bringing her to me?" |
32556 | Have n''t we, Jim?" |
32556 | How can Jim tell us while you are talking?" |
32556 | I did n''t keep you waiting very long to- day, did I?" |
32556 | I think the first letter is''W,''not''M,''"and turning to Alfy,"what did Ma Babcock say about the name?" |
32556 | I was going to say-- what was I going to say?" |
32556 | Is it of great value?" |
32556 | Is n''t he a handsome man?" |
32556 | Is n''t it all very beautiful?" |
32556 | Is n''t it wonderful? |
32556 | Is n''t that so?" |
32556 | Is there anything now you want to ask me?" |
32556 | Is there going to be people in all of them?" |
32556 | It''s been more than a year since you have seen me, is n''t it?" |
32556 | Jim answered,"Will you tell Miss Boothington that Miss Dorothy Calvert wishes to see her?" |
32556 | Jim seized her hands and asked hurriedly,"Could you love me? |
32556 | Let me see-- just what day is this?" |
32556 | Ludlow?" |
32556 | Ludlow?" |
32556 | Matthew heard her and came running up, saying:"What''s the matter, sis?" |
32556 | Mr. Ludlow usually attends to Ruth himself; I wonder why he has not thought of her?" |
32556 | Mrs. Calvert then asked,"Did anyone see out of the window when the flash of lightning lit up this car?" |
32556 | Mrs. Calvert, who was facing the window, looked out and gasped,"Oh, why do n''t they stop the train?" |
32556 | Now, Dorothy child, what would you like to play? |
32556 | Now, is n''t this a nice, long, newsy letter? |
32556 | Now? |
32556 | Oh, Jim, what day does the 27th of September fall on?" |
32556 | Oh, dear, oh, dear; do you really suppose that I will be a very great violinist?" |
32556 | Oh, did you look in the closet in the barn? |
32556 | Oh, why is it I never get into any such wonderful adventures?" |
32556 | On reaching a small outer office he asked of a pleasant faced girl sitting there,"Can I see Mr. Van Zandt? |
32556 | On the way out from the library, Dorothy asked,"Mr. Ludlow, are all these pictures and pieces of statuary done by Italians and other foreigners?" |
32556 | Please, please tell me? |
32556 | Ruth and Mr. Dauntrey, where are they?" |
32556 | Ruth questioned,"Is he cross? |
32556 | Ruth started off by saying,"Dorothy, do you believe what this guide is telling us or do you think he is fooling us?" |
32556 | Ruth thought this a pretty spot indeed, and exclaimed,"Oh, just see here, is n''t this a romantic spot? |
32556 | See the carved figures?" |
32556 | She said to Mrs. Calvert:"Aunt Betty, what shall I do? |
32556 | She turned and saw Jim on the veranda outside the window, and crossing the room and lifting up the French sash she said,"What is it, Jim?" |
32556 | So you are the Jim she speaks of in the letter, and says I may question concerning these matters?" |
32556 | The fact was suggestive of further danger, and then Dorothy questioned,"What was the crash? |
32556 | The offer is for work in the-- what department is it?" |
32556 | Then Alfy summoned her lost courage and said as calmly as she could,"Who''s there?" |
32556 | Then Ruth broke the silence by asking,"Where is your violin, Dorothy?" |
32556 | Then quickly changing his tone of voice to a more cheerful one, he continued:"Dear, never mind, we can be the same old friends again, ca n''t we?" |
32556 | Then you will come to me, girl?" |
32556 | Then, Dorothy girl, you will give me my answer?" |
32556 | Was it fire? |
32556 | Was someone being robbed, or murdered, or what? |
32556 | We can have this one secret from everyone else, ca n''t we? |
32556 | What are you to play?" |
32556 | What can I give you to sew? |
32556 | What day is it? |
32556 | What did you find to talk about?" |
32556 | What is it?" |
32556 | What is that brass disk for?" |
32556 | What shall I do, oh, what shall I do?" |
32556 | What shall I do?" |
32556 | What shall I wear?" |
32556 | What time is it, I wonder? |
32556 | When did you come into the room, just now?" |
32556 | When she had finished, she laid down her violin, and came and stood in front of her aunt, questioning:"Do you think I played them well enough? |
32556 | When? |
32556 | Where are you?" |
32556 | Where are you?" |
32556 | Where have you been?" |
32556 | Where is she?" |
32556 | Where is that? |
32556 | Where? |
32556 | Who sent them to you?" |
32556 | Why, Dorothy, what has happened? |
32556 | Will you please now tell me what you would like to have me wear?" |
32556 | Will you see that they are placed in Mr. Van Zandt''s hands safely? |
32556 | Would Alfy be the companion? |
32556 | You are not scared, are you? |
32556 | You do not mind playing there, do you? |
32556 | You here, too? |
32556 | You remember her saying that she was tired of boarding house meals, do you not?" |
32556 | You remember the convent we saw in Jackson Park yesterday, where they had all of those Columbus relics?" |
32556 | You remember them, do n''t you, Dorothy?" |
32556 | You say you think that Mrs. Haley, or Hannah Woodrow, is dead?" |
32556 | You will, will you not?" |
32556 | You will? |
32556 | angrily added Alfy,"why could n''t ma have a dress like that? |
32556 | he questioned,"really miss me?" |
32556 | what have you done?" |
12559 | ''The Washington News?'' 12559 And are n''t you Chaperon Extraordinary and Ministering Angel Plentipotentiary to the''Automobile Girls''? |
12559 | And spoil my good time with five charming girls? |
12559 | Are n''t there any speed regulations in this part of the world, Hugh? |
12559 | Are n''t you and Aunt Sallie going home with me, Father? |
12559 | Are n''t you going to open your flowers, Harriet? |
12559 | Are you actually going sight- seeing again to- day before the reception? 12559 Are you ready to go with me, Elmer?" |
12559 | Are you still in here? 12559 Aunt Sallie,"gasped Ruth,"are you a wizard?" |
12559 | Bab, would you mind leaving me alone while I dress? 12559 Barbara Thurston, what do you mean by running away by yourself?" |
12559 | Barbara Thurston, will you be quiet and tell me what has happened to you? |
12559 | Barbara, are you awake? |
12559 | But I do want you to do me a favor, and I wonder if you will do it? |
12559 | But are you sure you will be in? 12559 But how do you think he ever accomplished it?" |
12559 | But what about you, Peter? 12559 But what can we do?" |
12559 | But wo n''t you tell me why you ask me to be so exceedingly unaccommodating, Miss Moore? |
12559 | But would you be disappointed if I do not go? 12559 But, Bab, what about our Lenox friends, who spend their winters in Washington?" |
12559 | Ca n''t you possibly buy it, child? |
12559 | Ca n''t you say you wish the same thing that I do, and that you believe our motor trips will last forever? |
12559 | Did he know I was upstairs? |
12559 | Did you arrive home safely the other day? |
12559 | Did you get it, Bab? |
12559 | Did you get the yellow ribbon, Mollie? |
12559 | Did you have to tell Ruth? |
12559 | Do n''t you have a monthly allowance? |
12559 | Do n''t you think we had better go back a little, Charlie? |
12559 | Do the young ladies know anything of my key? |
12559 | Do you expect us to sit here in this freezing dirty old room half the night while you go around looking up a magistrate? |
12559 | Do you know anything of the key, Miss Barbara? |
12559 | Do you mean that, instead of the actual papers, you saved me by substituting blank papers for these valuable ones? 12559 Do you really tell your father everything?" |
12559 | Do you suppose, for one instant, that we are going to see Hugh Post drive off, the only man among three girls? 12559 Do you think, Bab,"Mollie asked,"that we could ask Ruth to lend us the money? |
12559 | Do you understand? |
12559 | Do you wish to be rich, or famous, or to write a great book or a play? |
12559 | Does Miss Moore happen to know how she was hurt, Daughter? |
12559 | Father,Harriet whispered timidly,"ca n''t you wait a few minutes longer? |
12559 | Father,exclaimed Harriet,"why are you boring the girls to death with so much information? |
12559 | Harriet, have you seen Ruth''s automobile? |
12559 | Harriet, is that you? |
12559 | Have I your permission to enter your divine apartment? 12559 Have some posies, girls?" |
12559 | Have you an idea who stole my papers? |
12559 | Have you any daughters? |
12559 | Have you any special reason for needing Aunt Sallie, Bab? 12559 Have you said good- bye to Harriet?" |
12559 | How about you and Mollie, Bab? |
12559 | How did Peter Dillon get us away from that wretched jail in such a short time when we thought we might have to stay there all night? |
12559 | How did you know we were going to Mrs. Wilson''s tea? 12559 How do you do, Miss Moore?" |
12559 | How do you know, Mrs. Wilson, that I have not received his permission to enter this room? 12559 How is a man to find you if you will hide behind curtains?" |
12559 | How is darling Aunt Sallie? 12559 How is your head, Bab, dear?" |
12559 | How much did the gown cost, Mollie? |
12559 | How much is the dress worth, Madame? |
12559 | I am not tired, Mrs. Thurston, are you? |
12559 | I beg your pardon,Bab began impulsively,"but are you looking for some one?" |
12559 | I flatter? |
12559 | I say, Miss Thurston, why ca n''t you make up your mind to like me? |
12559 | I wonder if you would do a fellow a favor some day? |
12559 | I wonder whom the girl could have been spying upon to have gotten herself into such trouble? 12559 If you could have one wish, that would surely be granted, what would you wish?" |
12559 | If you do n''t mind, wo n''t you sit and talk to me for a little while before this cozy open fire? 12559 If you wish to know a particular address why do you not ask your friends, the Hamlins, about it?" |
12559 | If you wished the directory, why did you not ask Mr. Hamlin to lend it to you? 12559 Is Miss Hamlin not with you?" |
12559 | Is Mr. Hamlin looking for Harriet? |
12559 | Is Mrs. Wilson here? |
12559 | Is it a burglar, Bab? |
12559 | Is it true that Mr. William Hamlin is now a worshiper at your shrine? |
12559 | Is that your message? |
12559 | Is there any question you wish to ask me? |
12559 | Is there anything I can get for you, girls? |
12559 | It is most improper that I say so, is it not? |
12559 | It''s a woman''s privilege, is n''t it? |
12559 | It''s the lady that''s a- runnin''the car, ai n''t it? 12559 Lige?" |
12559 | May I find Mr. Hamlin for you? |
12559 | May I keep my rose- bud for the same purpose? |
12559 | Miss Moore does not love me, does she? 12559 Mollie, what do you mean?" |
12559 | Mother, can you let me have some money? |
12559 | Mr. Hamlin,Grace asked timidly,"would you mind telling me what are the duties of the Secretary of State? |
12559 | Mr. Meyers,she pleaded,"wo n''t you take me back in your car to look for my friends? |
12559 | Mrs. Thurston,Mr. Stuart spoke slowly,"why would you not come to my house in Chicago to make us a visit when I asked you, nearly a year ago?" |
12559 | Must we go, Father? |
12559 | My dear Miss Moore, what has happened? 12559 Not in her room? |
12559 | Please,the maid said,"Mr. Hamlin wants to know if Miss Harriet left a key with you? |
12559 | Really, Miss Thurston, do n''t you think you are rather impertinent? |
12559 | Ruth, is there any place where we can be alone? |
12559 | Ruth,Bab asked suddenly,"do you like Harriet''s friend, Peter Dillon? |
12559 | Shall we ever see the President? |
12559 | She was n''t so easy to manage as you thought, was she? 12559 Suppose, Barbara, Grace and Hugh Post go along with me, Harriet?" |
12559 | Surely you do n''t suspect me of dark designs, do you? 12559 The gown?" |
12559 | The''Automobile Girls''hate mysteries, do n''t they, Bab? 12559 Then kindly tell me how my key came into your possession?" |
12559 | Then who, in Heaven''s name, is guilty of this dreadful act? |
12559 | Then wo n''t you be seated? |
12559 | Told us what? |
12559 | Well what are some of them? |
12559 | Well, how do you happen to be so intimate at the Chinese minister''s? |
12559 | Well, where is the justice of the peace or whatever man we ought to see about this wretched business? |
12559 | What are you doing, prying among Mr. Hamlin''s papers, when he is out of the house? 12559 What are you going to do with the fifty dollars, Bab?" |
12559 | What can we wear to the President''s reception to- morrow, Bab? |
12559 | What do you take me for, Miss Thurston? 12559 What girl is n''t cleverer than a man?" |
12559 | What has Miss Stuart got Hugh Post and Elmer Wilson with her for, if they ca n''t show her the way to town? |
12559 | What have you done with my state papers? |
12559 | What is the matter, Mollie? |
12559 | What is the trouble? |
12559 | What on earth made you go in there? |
12559 | What on earth was that, Barbara? |
12559 | What shall we do, Bab? |
12559 | What shall we say, Bab? |
12559 | When is it to be, Father? |
12559 | Where are Mollie and Grace? |
12559 | Where are the poplar trees planted along this avenue by Thomas Jefferson, Ruth? |
12559 | Where did you get that wonderful gown? 12559 Where''s Father?" |
12559 | Which of the three Graces do you mean to devote yourself to this afternoon, Peter? 12559 Who, Ruth? |
12559 | Whom did you wish to see? 12559 Whom do you mean, my child?" |
12559 | Whom do you think we have seen? |
12559 | Whose dress is that, Madame? 12559 Why are you so anxious to see the directory?" |
12559 | Why do n''t you say something, Bab? |
12559 | Why, Harriet, are you getting more clothes? |
12559 | Why, what do you mean? |
12559 | Why, yes; why not? |
12559 | Will Uncle Robert be very angry with you, Ruth, for being arrested? |
12559 | Will you leave me at my house, Charlie? |
12559 | Wo n''t I be an agreeable guest, Ruth? |
12559 | Wo n''t it be wonderful? 12559 Wo n''t you have a glass of water?" |
12559 | Wo n''t you try to find Mr. Meyers, Uncle? |
12559 | Worth? 12559 Would you girls like to do the stores with me?" |
12559 | Would you like me to guess who you are? |
12559 | Would you mind my asking you a question? |
12559 | Yes, is n''t it? |
12559 | Yes? |
12559 | You are Miss Thurston, are n''t you? |
12559 | You are sure you wo n''t mind how long I take to pay you back, Harriet? |
12559 | You ca n''t tell? 12559 You certainly do n''t object to my telling Barbara of your accusations, Uncle William?" |
12559 | You do n''t really mean that you wish me to take one of Mr. Hamlin''s papers without his knowledge, and then give the paper to you? |
12559 | You do not remember me, do you? |
12559 | You have n''t been getting engaged, have you, Harriet? |
12559 | You have n''t lost your wits, have you, child? |
12559 | You say a young woman sold my papers? 12559 You sent for me?" |
12559 | You? |
12559 | *****"How shall we divide our party for the motor ride, Ruth?" |
12559 | *****"Oh, Aunt Sallie, dear, please are you awake?" |
12559 | A low contralto voice said distinctly:"What do you mean by stealing in here to search among Mr. Hamlin''s papers?" |
12559 | Am I not right?" |
12559 | And has that anything to do with your message to me?" |
12559 | And how was she to find her way there, without being found out either by Mr. Hamlin or any one of the girls? |
12559 | And then, where will you be?" |
12559 | And what is the use of worrying over such a small debt? |
12559 | And what would Bab say when she saw it? |
12559 | Are you ill?" |
12559 | Are you not invited?" |
12559 | Are you pleased, child?" |
12559 | Are you tired?" |
12559 | As for Mrs. Wilson? |
12559 | Bab did not like to leave her, for what dreadful person might not stumble over the poor, unconscious girl? |
12559 | Bab turned over sleepily and yawned:"Is n''t there always some water in the hall, Ruth? |
12559 | Bab, did some boxes come for me this afternoon? |
12559 | Bubble calling to her out of the darkness? |
12559 | But I suppose we can get up guests enough to fill two automobiles, ca n''t we?" |
12559 | But did she not hear the ever- welcome sound of a friendly voice? |
12559 | But do n''t you think you are rather ungrateful? |
12559 | But how do you think a newspaper man could have unearthed this plot? |
12559 | But how else was she to be saved from the weight of her stern father''s displeasure? |
12559 | But how was Barbara to locate a pawn shop in Washington? |
12559 | But how was Harriet to see Charlie Meyers? |
12559 | But if anything disagreeable happens to you,"Marjorie Moore gave Bab a reassuring smile,"telephone me, will you? |
12559 | But may I therefore present myself to little''Miss No One''? |
12559 | But what could Barbara do? |
12559 | But what had Peter Dillon to do with it? |
12559 | But what harm could it do Mr. Hamlin for Barbara to pick up the book she desired? |
12559 | But where are my other''Automobile Girls,''Mollie and Grace?" |
12559 | But which one of you will go shopping with me this morning?" |
12559 | But would Mr. Hamlin have inquired of Barbara her reason for desiring the directory? |
12559 | CHAPTER IV AT THE CHINESE EMBASSY"Shall we eat our luncheon with chopsticks to- day?" |
12559 | CHAPTER XXII OIL ON THE TROUBLED WATERS"What does all this mean, William Hamlin?" |
12559 | Ca n''t you hear me?" |
12559 | Could a certain distinguished and wisely silent Oriental gentleman be responsible for the thrilling drama about to be enacted? |
12559 | Could it be possible that Marjorie Moore had discovered Mrs. Wilson''s and Peter''s plot? |
12559 | Could it be that this young and lovely looking woman was the mother of Elmer Wilson? |
12559 | Could n''t you let me write a sketch about you and your adventures, and put your photographs on the society page of our Sunday edition? |
12559 | Could she also have guessed Harriet''s part in it? |
12559 | Did Marjorie Moore also suspect that an effort would be made to draw Barbara into this whirlpool of disgrace? |
12559 | Did her visitor believe Bab would confide her opinion of Harriet to a complete stranger? |
12559 | Dillon?" |
12559 | Dillon?" |
12559 | Dillon?" |
12559 | Dillon?" |
12559 | Do n''t you feel the same way, Mollie?" |
12559 | Do n''t you think you could take me to look for them? |
12559 | Do you suppose it would do any good if I were to call on Mrs. Wilson? |
12559 | Do you think she would allow me to try it on her?" |
12559 | Do you think so?" |
12559 | Do you think they will be glad to have me for a sister?" |
12559 | Do you understand?" |
12559 | Does everyone try to get some one to do something for him in Washington?" |
12559 | Does she, Barbara? |
12559 | Had Barbara awakened at the Court of Pekin? |
12559 | Had Marjorie Moore expected foul play and called on Bab to help her guard some one from harm? |
12559 | Had he learned of her bill to her dressmaker? |
12559 | Had she been wise in accepting Mrs. Wilson''s offer? |
12559 | Hamlin?" |
12559 | Has Elmer gone to work? |
12559 | Have you ever been abroad?" |
12559 | He is so stern; he would just send me home in disgrace, and then what would Mother and Aunt Sallie and Mr. Stuart say? |
12559 | He leaned over and whispered softly:"How is the young woman we rescued the other night? |
12559 | How dared Harriet Hamlin be so willful, so headstrong? |
12559 | How had Mollie come by a gown that was more beautiful than anything Bab had ever seen her sister wear? |
12559 | How have you managed to keep that big boy of yours so much in the dark about-- oh, a number of things?" |
12559 | How is your mother?" |
12559 | How long before she should see them again? |
12559 | How was she to do it? |
12559 | However did you do it? |
12559 | I came to ask you if you would give me the pictures of the''Automobile Girls''for my paper? |
12559 | It was Bab who exclaimed:"Oh, Miss Moore, you are not going to betray Harriet, are you? |
12559 | It was so good of her to lend us the money was n''t it?" |
12559 | Just guess whom we know in Washington?" |
12559 | Marjorie Moore turned suddenly on Barbara;"Why should n''t I?" |
12559 | May I have them?" |
12559 | May I introduce her? |
12559 | Mr. Dillon, will you go to Miss Moore''s paper? |
12559 | Oh, Bab, what can we do? |
12559 | Oh, Bab, what will happen? |
12559 | Oh, Robert, what shall I do? |
12559 | Oh, why is she so determined to be so reckless and so foolish?" |
12559 | Once or twice Ruth called out:"Wo n''t you go a little slower in front, please? |
12559 | Perhaps you would like to meet my daughter, Wee Tu? |
12559 | Promise me you will grant no one a favor, no matter who asks it of you to- day?" |
12559 | See that stunning woman just coming in at the door? |
12559 | Shall I stay at home with you?" |
12559 | Should she go forward? |
12559 | Should she wear the frock that night? |
12559 | So what can we do?" |
12559 | Suppose Harriet were in the study? |
12559 | Tell me?" |
12559 | Then he said smoothly:"Miss Thurston, will you do me a favor?" |
12559 | Then, what will become of Harriet? |
12559 | There is only one thing for us to consider at present, and that is-- where is Harriet?" |
12559 | Was Harriet in some worse peril? |
12559 | Was not some state secret to be betrayed? |
12559 | Well, what is it?" |
12559 | What are your real duties at your legation?" |
12559 | What arrangements do you want to make about paying it back?" |
12559 | What could I wish in here? |
12559 | What could the girl want with her? |
12559 | What did it all mean? |
12559 | What do you suppose Peter Dillon is doing with a letter written in Chinese?" |
12559 | What do you suppose she was doing?" |
12559 | What evidence have you? |
12559 | What had been Mrs. Wilson''s object in lending her the money? |
12559 | What is it?" |
12559 | What little private wish of your own did you have in your mind? |
12559 | What on earth could this talkative young woman wish of her? |
12559 | What shall we do? |
12559 | What should she do? |
12559 | What was Harriet going to ask him? |
12559 | What was it? |
12559 | What was it?" |
12559 | What''s the use?" |
12559 | Where did you ever get hold of such an absurd idea?" |
12559 | Where was she? |
12559 | Where would her mother get such a large sum of money to send her? |
12559 | Who knows how this visit may be made to count against her? |
12559 | Who knows when we shall see each other again? |
12559 | Who took me from my nice warm bed? |
12559 | Why are you so silent, Barbara? |
12559 | Why not take the girls to look at the White House, Ruth? |
12559 | Why was her father standing outside her door? |
12559 | Will not Mr. Hamlin''s daughter and her four friends receive these poor offerings?" |
12559 | Will you be good enough to explain to me why you were hiding behind the curtains in Mr. Hamlin''s study when I came in? |
12559 | Will you do it for me?" |
12559 | Will you do this, Barbara?" |
12559 | Will you explain to Miss Moore exactly what occurred, Miss Thurston?" |
12559 | Will you forgive a most unhappy man? |
12559 | Will you girls mind excusing me for the day, and finding some way of amusing yourselves? |
12559 | Will you give me your word, all of you, not to tell?" |
12559 | Will you go with me, children?" |
12559 | Will you never refer to this conversation again, and take me home as soon as you can? |
12559 | Will you tell Mr. Hamlin that I left the bundle of papers he desired on his study table? |
12559 | Wo n''t you be seated while I ring for the butler to turn on the lights?" |
12559 | Wo n''t you come downstairs with me to get a drink of water?" |
12559 | Wo n''t you come, too, Bab?" |
12559 | Wo n''t you keep your word and grant me this favor?" |
12559 | Wo n''t you please find Mr. Hamlin, or some one, to come to her aid?" |
12559 | Would it have been better after all to ask Ruth for the loan of the money? |
12559 | Would she not be beautiful in it, with her pale yellow hair and her blue eyes? |
12559 | Would you lend me the money, Charlie? |
12559 | Would you like me to point out some of the celebrities to you? |
12559 | Yet how else could Bab get help? |
12559 | Yet would it be a good idea? |
12559 | You are Peter Dillon, are n''t you?" |
12559 | You are sure you wish to know the duties of the Secretary of State? |
12559 | You have been saving it to surprise us to- night, have n''t you?" |
12559 | You have something important to say to me? |
12559 | [ Illustration:"What Have You Done With My Papers?"] |
12559 | cried Ruth, in horrified tones,"What has happened to you? |
22113 | A Southern ranch? |
22113 | A responsibility, Aunt Katherine? |
22113 | Ai n''t they a- goin''with you, Miss Peggy? |
22113 | An''what_ she_ been a- sayin''ter yo''? |
22113 | And Rosalie? 22113 And do you expect to cling to childish habits all your days, Peggy dear? |
22113 | And do you suppose there can ever be anything like it again? |
22113 | And have I ever ordered any changes made in her rules? |
22113 | And what, may I inquire, is your very worst then? 22113 And you really raised those splendid horses yourself? |
22113 | Are n''t we to wait until Daddy Neil comes back? |
22113 | Are n''t you even going to tell Polly? |
22113 | Are they to go to the hop? |
22113 | Are you apprehensive of her becoming so? |
22113 | Are you ready, Aunt Katherine? |
22113 | Are_ ours_ abused, Polly? |
22113 | Assembly? 22113 At stake? |
22113 | At what time do you start? |
22113 | But how did you know she wished you? |
22113 | But when will they learn about their leave? 22113 But why do you call him by that absurd name? |
22113 | But, Mrs. Harold, are n''t first classmen really-- well-- don''t they come in for greater privileges? 22113 Ca n''t the boys ever get leave to visit their friends?" |
22113 | Ca n''t you and Peggy give it to us on a small scale? 22113 Could n''t she have telephoned? |
22113 | Could n''t ye just knot hup them tails a bit, and mebbe braid that fly- away mane down along the crest? 22113 Do n''t you think Juno Gibson is handsome?" |
22113 | Do you always give them sugar? 22113 Do you mean to say they understand and will really bring Jess here?" |
22113 | Do you really wish me to show you something of their intelligence, Mrs. Vincent? 22113 Do you think I''m going to let this side- wheeler shipwreck me? |
22113 | Do you think they always live up to the agreement? |
22113 | Do you think we are a lot of crazy schoolboys and expect to settle our disagreements with a regular fist- a- cuff bout? 22113 Do you want to try it again?" |
22113 | Does Polly know? |
22113 | Eh? 22113 Going in for the trapeze? |
22113 | Had he seen the cab? |
22113 | Has she ever attacked anyone before, Peggy? |
22113 | Have I been a responsibility to you since you came here? 22113 Have you ever had a_ boy_ cover your hands with kisses?" |
22113 | Honest? |
22113 | How about Stella Drummond? |
22113 | How long have you been observing this wonderful wonder? |
22113 | How many five- stripers are there? |
22113 | How''d I know, Mist''ss? 22113 I wonder why not?" |
22113 | If I go to the Columbia Heights School what will Ralph say? 22113 If you had no other, what could you do?" |
22113 | Is n''t it funny you girls never saw him while you were at Severndale? |
22113 | Is n''t it good just to be alive on such a day? |
22113 | Making a list of all your dances and Christmas frolicings, little- er- ahem--, Miss? |
22113 | Miss Howland, what was the cause of the wild shrieks which disturbed me a moment since? 22113 Occupy_ this_ suite?" |
22113 | Oh, Daddy, did you really meet Mrs. Harold and Polly, and who was with them? |
22113 | Oh, Polly, will you? 22113 Oh, are they such, wonders as all that?" |
22113 | Oh, are you a- speakin''to me, ma''am? |
22113 | Oh, how did you make them do it? 22113 Oh, indeed? |
22113 | Oh, my bonny one, how could you? |
22113 | Oh, was he a man? 22113 Oh, what is it all about?" |
22113 | Oh, what is it? 22113 Oh, who does it? |
22113 | Oh,_ where_ did they come from? |
22113 | Peggy, how_ can_ you have such a savage creature near you? 22113 Polly, what happened?'' |
22113 | Poor Tzaritza, you did what you believed to be your duty, did n''t you? 22113 Poor Tzaritza, you got into trouble because I lost my temper, did n''t you? |
22113 | Shall I? |
22113 | Shall you go home at Easter? |
22113 | Snap says he''s just wise to everything, and did you ever see anything so absurd as those clown tricks the jackies taught him? |
22113 | So you have come into the school to set its standards and correct its shortcomings, have you? 22113 Suppose we did shout and screech? |
22113 | Tanta,asked Polly,"do you know that Lily Pearl Montgomery and Helen Doolittle are here at Wilmot with Helen''s uncle? |
22113 | Those wavering, clear, electric beams, Who''ll guess how much their message means? 22113 To win and hold a love so pure, A faith so stanch, so strong, so sure-- To gain a confidence so rare-- What honors can with these compare? |
22113 | Understanda horse? |
22113 | Well, we''re_ here_,was Polly''s undisputable statement as she snuggled down under her bed- covers,"and now that we are what do you think of it?" |
22113 | Well, what is it to be this morning? |
22113 | What I gwine do wid all dis hyer truck, Missie- honey? |
22113 | What dat yo''say? 22113 What did you say to her, baby?" |
22113 | What for? 22113 What is it, Polly?" |
22113 | What is it-- Little Mother? |
22113 | What is this? |
22113 | What time are we to go to Severndale tomorrow, Little Mother? |
22113 | What you a- talking about, you little fool nigger? |
22113 | What''s brought you down here, honey? |
22113 | What''s that? |
22113 | What''s the matter? 22113 Where is Helen tonight?" |
22113 | Where is John? |
22113 | Where''s Jess? |
22113 | Which, the midshipmen or the stripes? |
22113 | Why did n''t you tell me you''d never ridden? |
22113 | Why do they start at night? |
22113 | Why must they rush back on the very minute? |
22113 | Why not? 22113 Why, he wants you and the Little Mother and Durand and Ralph and Jean and Gordon--""Gordon?" |
22113 | Why, what do you mean, Helen? |
22113 | Why? 22113 Will a fish swim?" |
22113 | Will they stand like that without being tied? |
22113 | Would you really like to know, dear? 22113 Yes, are n''t they just the dearest ever? |
22113 | Yes, it is exceedingly damp today, but do you think we ought to allow externals to affect us? |
22113 | Yes, what_ did_ she want? |
22113 | _ Are n''t_ we doing something? 22113 _ Not yet?_"emphasized Miss Sturgis. |
22113 | A lump of sugar awaited each obedient animal, and Jess asked:"What yo''wantin''ob Jess, baby- honey?" |
22113 | A real_ man_? |
22113 | Ai n''t she done come in fer her breckfus yit? |
22113 | Am_ I_ all wrong, or is Aunt Katherine different from everybody else? |
22113 | An''ma chile gotter wait a hull hour pas''her breckfus time jist kase Madam Fussa- ma- fiddle ai n''t choose fer ter git up? |
22113 | And Juno? |
22113 | And Nelly? |
22113 | And all the others, too? |
22113 | And big? |
22113 | And if they are to go out to Severndale tonight how will they manage?" |
22113 | And that west wing and its contents? |
22113 | And was n''t Tzaritza regal with Rhody?" |
22113 | And was the experiment a red letter one? |
22113 | And what of Nelly? |
22113 | And who''s taken Gumshoe''s place this year? |
22113 | And you surely do not think I do it to invite observation? |
22113 | And you''re out for basketball too? |
22113 | Are n''t we encouraging him and helping on a good show?" |
22113 | Are you ready for your breakfast, Aunt Katherine?" |
22113 | Are you so very superior to your companions-- you and your protà © gà © e?" |
22113 | As he settled Rosalie in her seat he asked:"How many Miss Boylstons have you got at Columbia Heights?" |
22113 | Bol''var?" |
22113 | But are_ you_ going to dust?" |
22113 | But had she ever given that fact a serious thought? |
22113 | But what is wrong, Miss Peggy? |
22113 | But what under the sun did Mrs. Vincent want of you, Peggy?" |
22113 | CHAPTER XV IN SPRING TERM"Well, we all came back to earth with a thud, did n''t we? |
22113 | Ca n''t we go right out there?" |
22113 | Ca n''t_ you_ show me how, Dawson? |
22113 | Can they all do that? |
22113 | Did he say yes? |
22113 | Did he wear a moustache? |
22113 | Did n''t it take you forever and ever to teach them? |
22113 | Did she"understand"those in her stable? |
22113 | Did they"love"her? |
22113 | Did you notice it, girls?" |
22113 | Did your ears burn this afternoon, Peggy? |
22113 | Did your father find it out, and what did he say?" |
22113 | Do Peggy and Polly resemble''meal sacks?'' |
22113 | Do n''t you perfectly dote on her girls? |
22113 | Do n''t you think the study of one''s fellow beings intensely interesting?'' |
22113 | Do you know what it will mean if I report you at Annapolis? |
22113 | Do you remember Fräulein Shultz who was here the first year school opened, Marjorie?" |
22113 | Do you think she will tell me?" |
22113 | Do you understand it?" |
22113 | Does n''t she seem an awful lot older than the rest of us? |
22113 | Find the outlook inspiring?" |
22113 | Good Lord, are you going to let drive with a gatling? |
22113 | Great Scott, do you think I''m going to let_ this_ beat me out, or that yelling mob out yonder see me put out of commission? |
22113 | Had Helen''s cousin returned, but when? |
22113 | Had she miscalculated the depth of the pool after all? |
22113 | Has she become incapable of voluntary locomotion?" |
22113 | Have you ever seen one_ do_ it?" |
22113 | Have you lost your ability to sit at the head of my table, daughter?" |
22113 | Have you never heard them? |
22113 | Have you no street cleaning department in your illustrious city?" |
22113 | Have you not done a great deal for them? |
22113 | Her father? |
22113 | How about it? |
22113 | How am I ever to be a co- ed in Annapolis and a pupil here at the same time? |
22113 | How are you, Doctor? |
22113 | How did you come out in Math and Mech? |
22113 | How do you keep them so ravishingly white and your nails so absolutely faultless? |
22113 | How far ahead do you reckon they are?" |
22113 | How is Lily?" |
22113 | How many women ever think of doing so? |
22113 | How under the sun came I here?" |
22113 | How would it fit with skirts all bunched up under it? |
22113 | How would it seem to have no Severndale to run out to? |
22113 | Howsoever, some folks seem to think they have, and what I am trying to get at is,_ have they_? |
22113 | I know her and she knows me, do n''t you, old girl?" |
22113 | I wish I were that Indian- Chinese- Jap god, what''s his name? |
22113 | I wonder why?" |
22113 | If you wish to know why I carried Helen out of the room I did it because she was running--""Doing what? |
22113 | Is n''t it about time you began to think about growing up? |
22113 | Is n''t it always better to believe a person honest until we prove him a thief, than to go the other way about it? |
22113 | Is n''t that too good to believe?" |
22113 | Is that what you say down here?" |
22113 | Is there a weak face among them? |
22113 | It was all said half- jestingly, half- seriously, but Juno gave her head a superior little toss as she answered:"And go looking like a meal sack? |
22113 | It was jist gwine ter make some of dem pots bile over if it had a- kep''on, yo''hyer me? |
22113 | July, August, and, let me see, twenty- five days of September since I left you? |
22113 | Just as a sample of what we may hear some day? |
22113 | Just then Mammy Lucy stuck her white- turbaned head in at the door to ask:"Whar dat chile at? |
22113 | Keep Tzaritza out of the house and relegate the Sultana to the servant''s quarters? |
22113 | Kingdom- come, is yo''think I''se come ter ma dotage? |
22113 | Let''s see, which have we had most to do with since we came here twenty- four hours ago? |
22113 | Lily, did the milliner put the trimming on the box and forget to send home the hat?" |
22113 | Llewellyn?" |
22113 | Llewellyn?" |
22113 | Llewellyn?" |
22113 | Mammy, is Aunt Katherine ready?" |
22113 | May I walk to the gate with her?" |
22113 | Mrs. Stewart laughed a low, incredulous laugh, then queried:"And you the daughter of Neil Stewart and a little Navy girl? |
22113 | Mrs. Stewart looked about her in undisguised disappointment and asked:"Is_ this_ the capital city of the State of Maryland? |
22113 | Mrs. Vincent had more than once said to herself:"Well, I certainly have four oddities to deal with:_ Who_ is Marjorie? |
22113 | Mrs. Vincent nodded forgiveness, then turning to Stella, asked:"Were you here all the time, Stella?" |
22113 | Mrs. Vincent smiled as she slipped an arm across Polly''s shoulder and asked:"Are you to be my newest girl? |
22113 | My Lawd, what done possess Massa Neil fer ter''vite her down hyer? |
22113 | My little girl, my little girl, have you needed Daddy Neil as much as this?" |
22113 | My little girl, will you accept some suggestions regarding your toilet?" |
22113 | No Peggy to pop into Middie''s Haven? |
22113 | No boon companion to ride, walk, drive, skate with, or lead the old life which they had both so loved? |
22113 | Now that''s the limit, ai n''t it? |
22113 | Now, Polly, what is it?" |
22113 | Of course, it is all wounded pride and affection, but who is to correct it? |
22113 | Oh, which girls are you going to invite? |
22113 | Oh, why ca n''t the parents think of the children they have brought into the world but who did not ask to come? |
22113 | Or dream the wondrous tale they tell? |
22113 | Or was it something in the fine, strong face which children and animals in common all trust with subtle intuition? |
22113 | Pardon me if I make a note of it, and-- and--_how_ do you spell accomplished, Captain Stewart? |
22113 | Peggy and Polly flew to him crying:"Did he say yes? |
22113 | Peggy asked:"Are our horses ready, Dawson?" |
22113 | Peggy slipped her arm about her and asked:"What makes you look so sober, Nellibus?" |
22113 | Peggy was not ungrateful, but what had befallen the usual order of things? |
22113 | Peggy, has she ever been separated from you before, dear?" |
22113 | Peggy, were n''t you petrified when you struck''eight bells''at the hop, for the death of the old year? |
22113 | Poor little Nelly Bolivar would have been a modest, sleek little Junco compared with the birds of paradise(? |
22113 | Rate more? |
22113 | Sat on a pin?" |
22113 | Say, how is it to get out of my coat, Bantam?" |
22113 | Shall I hail him?" |
22113 | Shall I say anything to Shelby?" |
22113 | Shall I tell you the message the flashes carry? |
22113 | She might be Polly''s and Peggy''s friend-- well and good-- but who was she? |
22113 | Slipping an arm about each girl as they sat beside her she asked:"What do you think of our horses, and of Dawson? |
22113 | So now smiling across the table she said:"So you have decided to consider my suggestion, Neil?" |
22113 | So you accept the bargain? |
22113 | Stella, is your chafing- dish ready?" |
22113 | That you never have and never could do anything to invite criticism? |
22113 | The following Tuesday was Hallow E''en and where is your school- girl who does not revel in its privileges? |
22113 | The horse''s well- being or mine? |
22113 | The next second she was holding Peggy in her arms and almost sobbing herself as she besought her to tell"who done hurt ma baby? |
22113 | Then Peggy asked:"What do you think of the girls? |
22113 | Then after a moment she resumed:"O Shashai, what_ is_ the matter with everything? |
22113 | Then she asked:"Wo n''t your father come East this spring for commencement? |
22113 | Then the self- elected dictator spoke:"Peggy, dear, are you not to drive with me?" |
22113 | Then with a guileless smile remarked:"Now you do n''t sesso? |
22113 | There are-- how many of us? |
22113 | There was a slight pause, in which Juno gave an impatient toss of her handsome head and asked in a bitterly ironical voice:"Are they? |
22113 | This year''s? |
22113 | To be"loved"by one? |
22113 | Turn her over to your discipline, or crush her with one snap of my jaws?" |
22113 | Twenty- four? |
22113 | Understand?" |
22113 | Vincent?" |
22113 | Was n''t she the limit? |
22113 | What are they trying to do now?" |
22113 | What could she do alone? |
22113 | What do they mean?" |
22113 | What does become of all the children of divorced parents in this land of divorces? |
22113 | What is it for? |
22113 | What is likely to become of_ her_, poor child? |
22113 | What is to become of that little pepper pot with all her loving impulses and self- will? |
22113 | What makes you so tight with your news, any way? |
22113 | What more could a conscientious school Principal ask of her riding master? |
22113 | What possessed the woman to antagonize everyone with whom she came in touch? |
22113 | What was the meaning of it? |
22113 | What''s at stake, Little Mother?" |
22113 | What''s rattled you like this? |
22113 | What? |
22113 | What?" |
22113 | When is I see you a cryin''like dis befo''? |
22113 | When they reached her corridor she said to Juno:"Little girl, will you come into my room a moment?'' |
22113 | Where did you and Peggy catch and bottle up all your worldly wisdom?" |
22113 | Where did you come from?" |
22113 | Which is the particular He, Peggy? |
22113 | Which of these fellows will be there?" |
22113 | Who but she could fill that office? |
22113 | Who could help loving them?" |
22113 | Whose could it be? |
22113 | Why could it not have gone on? |
22113 | Why did you carry Helen from the room? |
22113 | Why do n''t you quote Helen Taft to us instead of Queen Mary? |
22113 | Why does n''t that man drive him out?" |
22113 | Why in this world should they? |
22113 | Why not? |
22113 | Why not? |
22113 | Why should they? |
22113 | Will any horse come if you know how to call him? |
22113 | Will you let him do so by coming down here with Peggy?" |
22113 | Will you show us? |
22113 | Will you?" |
22113 | With a pious"Ma Lawd- God- Amighty, what done happen?" |
22113 | Within a few moments two girls appeared in the doorway, the taller one asking:"Did you wish to see us, Mother?" |
22113 | Would it be fair? |
22113 | Would it be scorching hot? |
22113 | Would she find a welcome among the Delacys, the Vanderstacks, the Dryers and heaven knows which- or- whats of New York''s glitterers? |
22113 | Would there be moon- light nights? |
22113 | Would you like to drive in?" |
22113 | Yet did you ever_ see_ anything so graceful as those two girls and that magnificent dog when they went over? |
22113 | Yet if she lost sight of them what might not take place? |
22113 | Yet, why not? |
22113 | Yo''hyer me?" |
22113 | You are planning a house- party? |
22113 | You see it is only two weeks off and the Little Mother has not said anything about it, has she, Polly?" |
22113 | You think I am too sweeping in my assertion? |
22113 | You will come again-- yes, often-- and where I can help, count upon me-- always? |
22113 | _ This_ little town?" |
22113 | cried Peggy, aghast,"Tzaritza attacked_ you_, Polly?" |
22113 | who brought you?" |
32678 | All right at the smoke- house? |
32678 | An''yet you allow that we should stick our noses into the mess? |
32678 | An''you count on doin''that first of all, eh? |
32678 | And are you willin''to hold enmity simply because we had a bit of a scrimmage over differences of opinion? 32678 And because of that you think that we are to play an important part in this portion of the war, eh?" |
32678 | And do you expect that we can capture at least half a dozen well- armed Britishers? |
32678 | And what would that be? |
32678 | And who is this you have with you? |
32678 | And you have taken prisoners on your own account? |
32678 | Are the remainder of the party to stay here? |
32678 | Are they comin''this way? |
32678 | Are we the only ones to go unarmed? |
32678 | Are we to go without weapons? |
32678 | Are we to join the fleet? |
32678 | Are we to take on any weapons? |
32678 | Are you going to stay on board? |
32678 | Are you hankerin''to have your pungy burned or sunk? |
32678 | Are you of the opinion that we should haul in to the bank? |
32678 | Are you simply reckoning on laying off the islands? |
32678 | At work? |
32678 | Ay, sha n''t we take you aboard now? 32678 Ay, that was the talk in town this forenoon,"Jerry replied;"but now people are saying that he came back just before sunset--""Back here to Benedict?" |
32678 | But after we get a load, Darius? 32678 But do you count on taking them without first explaining the situation? |
32678 | But do you count that the enemy will get as far up as the village? |
32678 | But how did you contrive to come at the scuttle? |
32678 | But how would you stop us? |
32678 | But our party is too big for safety now, and what will it be if we allow every straggler to trail on behind? 32678 But suppose the British are close at hand?" |
32678 | But suppose we fall asleep? |
32678 | But suppose we run plump on to them? |
32678 | But surely you''re not proposing that we shall start without knowing where we are going, or what is to be done? |
32678 | But the commodore? |
32678 | But what about Jim Freeman and his party? |
32678 | But what about our work here? |
32678 | But what can be done with the mule, if we take to the smoke- house? |
32678 | But what have you been doing to tire you so thoroughly? |
32678 | But what is the meaning of their landing so many men? |
32678 | But what of the British? |
32678 | But where did you meet Bill? |
32678 | But where do you reckon that we''re bound for? |
32678 | But where shall we find the fleet? |
32678 | But where''ll you go, Bob? |
32678 | But why did n''t you get away when you had the chance? |
32678 | But, Elias,Jenkins remonstrated,"even though you do n''t believe in the war, surely you would n''t do that which might work harm to your neighbors?" |
32678 | Ca n''t you give your shipmates the same show for a watch below that you''ve got? |
32678 | Ca n''t you tell us what has happened? |
32678 | Can the four of us get along in the canoe? |
32678 | Can you look after the miller, Jim? |
32678 | Can you make out the shore on either side? |
32678 | Can you show us the way? |
32678 | Did Macomber succeed in getting into the prison? |
32678 | Did n''t the commodore allow that we should keep right on bein''oystermen? |
32678 | Did n''t you see a boat? |
32678 | Did they set the prisoners free? |
32678 | Did you ever run across Bill Jepson from Baltimore? |
32678 | Did you give the people to understand that he was yours? |
32678 | Did you hide the boat? |
32678 | Did you run across the boat when you went down? |
32678 | Did you see him? |
32678 | Do n''t know anythin''more about the situation? |
32678 | Do n''t you need the lads with you? |
32678 | Do n''t you? |
32678 | Do you believe it possible that we could save the schooner now? |
32678 | Do you call it a lift to be put where the Britishers can kill you? |
32678 | Do you know what we are to do with the pungy? |
32678 | Do you live here in Washington, uncle? |
32678 | Do you mean to say, Darius Thorpe, that you''d prevent us from goin''ashore? |
32678 | Do you really expect to see Britishers on the river this night? |
32678 | Do you suppose he allows to stop at the tavern while we''re to stay in this smoke- house? |
32678 | Do you think it will be possible to keep on your feet for such a long distance? |
32678 | Do you think, lad, that I would encourage you to spend your time fishing when you have already shown yourselves capable of bigger things? 32678 Does the lieutenant count on saving the Scorpion to hold the Britishers in check?" |
32678 | Ever been up the Patuxent river? |
32678 | Goin''to move, eh? |
32678 | Gone where? |
32678 | Gone wrong? |
32678 | Growin''uneasy, lad? |
32678 | Growing uneasy, Darius? |
32678 | Has anythin''happened suddenly? |
32678 | Have the Britishers a larger force? |
32678 | Have you been over there? |
32678 | Have you been working all this while? |
32678 | Have you by chance lost the pungy? |
32678 | Have you ever heard it said whether he was for or against the war? |
32678 | Have you heard anything new since we arrived? |
32678 | Have you lost your wits that you think the Britishers would come into the Patuxent river? |
32678 | How are we to find you again? |
32678 | How are you goin''to mend matters, lad, while the price of oysters keeps down as it is now? |
32678 | How can you be so certain of that? 32678 How did he know that?" |
32678 | How did you get all that stuff? |
32678 | How did you get here? |
32678 | How do you count on usin''it? |
32678 | How do you expect we can sneak around the British fleet unless we''ve got some excuse for goin''there? 32678 How do you happen to remember all these things?" |
32678 | How do you know, lad? |
32678 | How is she doin''? |
32678 | How large are they? |
32678 | How long have you been up Baltimore way? |
32678 | How long will it take the enemy to run up to the mouth of the river? |
32678 | How many people do you reckon are in the house? |
32678 | How shall we be able to tell the time? |
32678 | How would it do to take along a supply of meal? |
32678 | I reckon the Britishers might make trouble for us, eh? |
32678 | I suppose we shall be called upon to take a hand in throwing up breastworks? |
32678 | I thought we were to stay here? |
32678 | I thought you counted on moving around all night? |
32678 | I would like to speak about Elias Macomber, sir? |
32678 | In here? |
32678 | In the first place we have n''t money enough,I suggested,"and secondly, how many shops will you find open in this city?" |
32678 | Into Washington? |
32678 | Is it you, Amos Grout? 32678 Is n''t that rather high- sounding for a peaceful fisherman?" |
32678 | Know anythin''about him, lad? 32678 Know him?" |
32678 | Matter? 32678 Meaning that there is more of fear in your mind lest we come upon spies of the enemy, than expectation Commodore Barney might need our services?" |
32678 | Not if everything was in your favor; but how if you met a boat- load of Britishers such as we captured the other night? 32678 Now what is he about?" |
32678 | Now what is it? |
32678 | Now what is to be done? |
32678 | Remember it? |
32678 | Shall we be helpin''the government the same as if we stayed aboard one of the vessels to do our share of fightin''? |
32678 | So the spy is here, an''counts on stayin''till the Britishers come up the bay, eh? |
32678 | So you lads have come back in haste, eh? |
32678 | So you think they would n''t come into the Patuxent, eh? |
32678 | So your vessel is named the Avenger? |
32678 | Supposin''you free Darius an''Bill to- night, what''ll you do with''em? |
32678 | Tell me your names? |
32678 | Tell me, uncle, where did the American soldiers keep their prisoners? |
32678 | Tell us what happened after we left the Avenger? |
32678 | That goes without sayin'', an''now what shall we do? |
32678 | That was the prisoner who escaped? 32678 The commodore had only got eight pungies an''five barges of the fleet--""Where are the other boats?" |
32678 | The enemy are bent on burnin''all the government buildin''s in the city, even if they do no more, an''what about the jails? |
32678 | The question is whether the fort can prevent their comin''up the river? |
32678 | The whole fleet went up, eh? 32678 Then why do we go alongside? |
32678 | Then why have you tied me up in this fashion? |
32678 | Then why is it we ca n''t make a trade to help supply the commodore with fish an''oysters? 32678 Then you do not believe we shall be pursued?" |
32678 | Then you think, father, that I should serve under the commodore, taking the chances of losing the pungy after having paid so much money for her? |
32678 | Tired out? |
32678 | We''ll be on board in half an hour; you ca n''t get under way before then? |
32678 | Well, Bubby, have you gone daft? |
32678 | Well, did that settle it? |
32678 | Well, lads,he cried, turning on Jerry and me insistently,"you''ve seen the biggest man in this country, an''what do you think of him?" |
32678 | Well, my bullies, how about that famous ship Avenger, Amos Grout commander, and Darius Thorpe general supercargo? |
32678 | Well, that''s about what we''re doin'', ai n''t it? |
32678 | Well, what if the boys went ashore to go home for a couple of days? 32678 Well?" |
32678 | Were you around here when the building was fired? |
32678 | What about provisions, captain? |
32678 | What are you doing up there? |
32678 | What are you goin''to do with me? |
32678 | What are you hailing? |
32678 | What are you laughing at? |
32678 | What can they do now? |
32678 | What can we do more than would be done by you? |
32678 | What can we do, except to get away before he brings some of his cronies down here to make a row? |
32678 | What craft is that? |
32678 | What did you put in here for? |
32678 | What did your mother say? |
32678 | What do you call doin''it properly? |
32678 | What do you count on watching? |
32678 | What do you know about the Britishers? |
32678 | What do you mean? |
32678 | What do you suppose? |
32678 | What do you think can have happened? |
32678 | What does he reckon on doing now that we have caught the traitor? |
32678 | What happened to me? |
32678 | What have you been doing? 32678 What have you lads got in your heads?" |
32678 | What is his name? |
32678 | What is it, lad? |
32678 | What is it? |
32678 | What is the matter, friend? |
32678 | What is the news? |
32678 | What is the price? |
32678 | What is the time? |
32678 | What made you tackle the whole of''em? |
32678 | What made you think anything was wrong? |
32678 | What reason has he to make any fuss? |
32678 | What ship are you from? |
32678 | What would you do if he was in good shape? |
32678 | What would you do with him, supposin''he was here this minute? |
32678 | What''er you goin''to do with me? |
32678 | What''s crawlin''over you, Darius? |
32678 | What''s happening? |
32678 | What''s the matter now? |
32678 | What''s the matter, Jim? |
32678 | What''s the matter, lad? 32678 What''s the matter?" |
32678 | What''s the matter? |
32678 | What''s the sense of stewin''over that part of it now? |
32678 | What''s to be done? |
32678 | What? |
32678 | What_ can_ we do? |
32678 | When did you arrive at Benedict? |
32678 | When did you desert from the Severn? |
32678 | When did you leave him? |
32678 | When did you take them? |
32678 | Where are Dody and Josiah? |
32678 | Where are the British now? |
32678 | Where are the men? |
32678 | Where are we goin''? |
32678 | Where are you bound? |
32678 | Where do the British keep their prisoners? 32678 Where is Bill Jepson?" |
32678 | Where is Darius? |
32678 | Where is Jim Freeman? |
32678 | Where is that, uncle? |
32678 | Where shall we find the commodore among all that crowd of vessels? |
32678 | Where were the foremost ships when you saw them? |
32678 | Where would you look first? |
32678 | Whether you get Bill an''Darius out of jail or not, you''ll be wantin''to go down the river, lad, so why do n''t you bring all hands aboard? 32678 Who is your master?" |
32678 | Who will go with you? |
32678 | Who''s kickin''up this row? |
32678 | Why are you loafing around here? |
32678 | Why did n''t you remain alongside, as you were told? |
32678 | Why did n''t you turn in? |
32678 | Why do n''t you eat? |
32678 | Why do we want her there? |
32678 | Why do you suppose this move is being made? |
32678 | Why do you think so? |
32678 | Why not go ashore for an hour? |
32678 | Why not go straight into Washington, an''stay there till we find a chance to slip down the river? |
32678 | Why not lie down while you may, and get some sleep? |
32678 | Why so, sir? |
32678 | Why? |
32678 | Will one of your men stand by for our line, sir? |
32678 | Will they do any harm to the townspeople, think you? |
32678 | Will you give your word to make no attempt at escape? |
32678 | Will you let us come below for a short time? |
32678 | Wo n''t that be deserting our post? |
32678 | Would you leave your father behind? |
32678 | Yes; they''re goin''to Nottingham with us,Jerry replied, and the old man asked me:"How soon can we get under way?" |
32678 | You count on_ leavin''_ me, sir? 32678 ''Where''s your boat?'' 32678 ''Where''s your crew?'' 32678 And in thinking of this I came to ask myself how we were to present ourselves? 32678 Are you minded to serve your country, lad? |
32678 | As we came alongside he grasped the gunwale to rest himself, and asked:"Are you from the oysterman?" |
32678 | Ask''em if I shall begin takin''''em out?" |
32678 | Bob Hanaford, where did the lads run afoul of you, an''why did n''t you get your pungy down river before the enemy''s fleet came up?" |
32678 | But, if such was the case, where was Darius? |
32678 | Ca n''t you see that only part of the fleet is goin''up stream? |
32678 | Can we do any business with you?" |
32678 | Can you give me the bearin''s?" |
32678 | Can you leave in thirty minutes?" |
32678 | Darius, who was on the lookout for us as may be supposed, said when he saw that the canoe had three occupants:"So you got him, eh? |
32678 | Did you get your money?" |
32678 | Did you see Jim Freeman an''his crowd?" |
32678 | Do n''t you want to try''em?" |
32678 | Do you allow there may be traitors in the fleet? |
32678 | Does any one know if he came out of the battle alive?" |
32678 | Does that mean you''re goin''away right soon?" |
32678 | How about it, lads? |
32678 | How can I help it if a crowd of Britishers take possession of my mill?" |
32678 | How is breakfast comin''on? |
32678 | I ran aft to where Jim and his friends stood, asking eagerly:"What are our people going to do?" |
32678 | I reckon we''ve done the trick, eh, captain?" |
32678 | If Darius was yet on board why had he left his post of duty? |
32678 | If I had been faint- hearted before, what shall be said of my condition now? |
32678 | If anything had happened to him, why had Jim Freeman taken it upon himself to leave the lower bay? |
32678 | Is that your craft?" |
32678 | Is there anything else to be said?" |
32678 | It was Darius who broke in upon my perplexing thoughts by asking:"Well, what do you think of it now, lad? |
32678 | Now I''d like to know if that very friendly gentleman Elias Macomber, has been left behind, or if he followed the force? |
32678 | Now do you think I''m so far out of the way in sayin''that there''s a good chance of our gettin''the worst of it?" |
32678 | Now what more natural for them to suppose that we are tryin''to lead''em into an ambush-- for the Britishers still believe we fight in Injun fashion? |
32678 | Of what did we talk? |
32678 | Shall we sail boldly down the bay, asking the Britishers to buy?" |
32678 | Tell me how you happened to be here?" |
32678 | The one distressing question was whether the enemy would make search in the city for such as we? |
32678 | Then, as if considering the question settled absolutely, Darius cried out to Jim,"Have you stowed everythin''in the canoe?" |
32678 | There were no sign of life on deck; but as we went over the rail the companion- way hatch was opened a few inches, and some one cried:"What''s wanted? |
32678 | We might shoot down a few men; but could not even delay the advance, an''what would be gained? |
32678 | What brought you ashore at Hog Point?" |
32678 | What can you find there to tie him with, Jim?" |
32678 | What do you mean by a boat?" |
32678 | What has happened?" |
32678 | What is the matter?" |
32678 | What of Bill Jepson? |
32678 | What''s the row?" |
32678 | When all the story had been told the officer asked:"Can you give us a place on the river where we may lay by during the day? |
32678 | When we were come within hailing distance I shouted, never thinking that I might be heard by those on the Jenkins plantation:"Why are you coming back? |
32678 | Where are you?" |
32678 | Where else can we be bound?" |
32678 | Where''s Darius?" |
32678 | Where''s Darius?" |
32678 | Whereabouts are our people?" |
32678 | Whether as lads who wanted to make a bargain to supply the fleet with fish, or as recruits? |
32678 | Who will go to the commodore?" |
32678 | Who''d think this crowd had been hob- nobbin''with the Britishers for the last two or three days? |
32678 | Work? |
32678 | You two will make a good thing out of this business, in case the Avenger is burned, eh?" |
32678 | You would n''t be willin''to stay here with the cowards Commodore Barney left behind, would you?" |
32678 | You''re thinkin''of your mother an''the children, eh? |
32678 | he cried when we were come within hailing distance, and I asked irritably:"In for what?" |
32678 | he shouted nervously, and Darius gave the word to cease paddling as he asked:"What''s the news?" |
5617 | A big fire-- really? |
5617 | A dollar thirty- four-- that''s all the moneys you got? |
5617 | A real trip? 5617 A trip?" |
5617 | And could we see the Potomac River? |
5617 | And did she have light hair? |
5617 | And did you been to see the fire? |
5617 | And did you never find the dishes? |
5617 | And how did you get out? |
5617 | And is that what you have been doing, Freddie-- riding up and down in the elevator? |
5617 | And may we stay a little while? |
5617 | And shall we go up inside it? |
5617 | And shall we see Billy and Nell? |
5617 | And shall we stop in New York? |
5617 | And so they got off one of the sight- seeing autos, did they? |
5617 | And so you rang the bell, did you, Freddie, because you wanted to see a fire? |
5617 | And the roses, too? |
5617 | And where are we going to have some fun? |
5617 | And why was that? |
5617 | And will there be some red fire in the theater show? |
5617 | Any sailboats? |
5617 | Are n''t we going to buy anything to take home-- souvenirs I mean? |
5617 | Are the letters there-- the letters''J.W.''? |
5617 | Are there thirty floors to this building? |
5617 | Are we going swimming? |
5617 | Are you afraid they''ll break it? |
5617 | Are you children just getting home from school? |
5617 | Are you down there under the hay? |
5617 | Are you goin''there soon? |
5617 | Are you sure these are the two pieces from your set? |
5617 | Are you sure you are big enough to go to the post- office for me? |
5617 | Are you sure you saw Flossie go up those stairs, Freddie? |
5617 | Are you very sure you do n''t mind doing it, Sam? |
5617 | Because why? |
5617 | Bigger? 5617 But could n''t we go to Washington, anyhow?" |
5617 | But he is awful fat, is n''t he? |
5617 | But how could they be at your automobile office? |
5617 | But if they do n''t find her, Mamma? |
5617 | But it''s a real fire, is n''t it, Daddy? |
5617 | But what are we to do? |
5617 | But what could the wonderful news be? |
5617 | But what shall we do? |
5617 | But where is Flossie? 5617 But why did n''t you tell mother, dear?" |
5617 | But, Flossie, how did you happen to come up here? |
5617 | Ca n''t I look out the window and see the engines? |
5617 | Ca n''t we go in and hear''em talk and talk and talk, like Mr. Perkins said they did? |
5617 | Can we go? |
5617 | Come from? 5617 Could Nell and Billy go?" |
5617 | Could we ever go into the house where the President lives? |
5617 | Could we go inside? |
5617 | Could we go to see the Washington Monument? |
5617 | Could we see the Washington Monument? |
5617 | Could we send home for our sled if there''s lots of snow, Daddy? |
5617 | Dey is n''t heah now, an''where is dey? 5617 Did n''t you ever like to play outdoors, Sam?" |
5617 | Did n''t you ever see him again? |
5617 | Did n''t you like it? |
5617 | Did n''t you see us crawl out? |
5617 | Did somebody break it? |
5617 | Did you bring me a new toy fire engine? |
5617 | Did you come down for anything special? |
5617 | Did you find a story book for me? |
5617 | Did you have a nice time in Washington? |
5617 | Did you know the tramp''s name? |
5617 | Did you look under the seats? |
5617 | Did you was lookin''for us? |
5617 | Do n''t our Snoop know his name when I call him, same as our dog Snap does? |
5617 | Do n''t those cookies look good? |
5617 | Do n''t you ever think of anything else? |
5617 | Do n''t you have a lake there? |
5617 | Do n''t you have lots of fun? |
5617 | Do n''t you hear how the engine is blowing the whistle? |
5617 | Do n''t you know whose they are? |
5617 | Do n''t you like it here? |
5617 | Do n''t you see that those are Miss Pompret''s dishes? |
5617 | Do n''t you see, Bert? |
5617 | Do they ever have fires in Washington, Daddy? |
5617 | Do they have ice cream cones? |
5617 | Do they have to work at night? |
5617 | Do you mean a trip to some city? |
5617 | Do you mean to say that my little boy started a fire? |
5617 | Do you mean to say you have more twins at home? |
5617 | Do you really mean you''d pay a hundred dollars for two china dishes? |
5617 | Do you s''pose Flossie is hurt? |
5617 | Do you s''pose cats know their names? |
5617 | Do you think he''ll bring us anything to eat? |
5617 | Do you think so? |
5617 | Does he always eat that way? |
5617 | Excuse me for disturbing you; but have you seen anything of a little girl--"Did she have blue eyes? |
5617 | Freddie, where were you? |
5617 | Gone? 5617 Has Flossie fallen?" |
5617 | Have we got to go to school? |
5617 | Have you come here to live? |
5617 | Have you got another dog for us? |
5617 | Have you got any hay in Wash''ton? |
5617 | Have you got any whistles or fire engines? |
5617 | He lives in the White House; does n''t he Daddy? 5617 Hi there, Freddie, what''s the matter?" |
5617 | How could we? |
5617 | How long are we going to be in New York? |
5617 | How much have you? |
5617 | How much is thirty- two and eighty- seven? |
5617 | How much you got? |
5617 | How much? 5617 How much?" |
5617 | How much? |
5617 | How would you all like to go to a theater show this afternoon-- to a matinee? |
5617 | How? |
5617 | I could n''t help being thirsty, could I? |
5617 | I guess it wo n''t be very deep here, will it, Daddy? |
5617 | I heard the engines puffin'', and I saw the red light and it woke me up and I comed in and telled Momsie; and it''s a real fire, is n''t it? |
5617 | I wonder how far he can stretch them? |
5617 | I wonder what I can do with my twins? |
5617 | I wonder what that dog wanted? |
5617 | I wonder what we''ll get? |
5617 | I wonder what''s there? |
5617 | If I''m going to be a fireman I''ve got to look at horses, have n''t I? |
5617 | If they were there they''d belong to Washington, would n''t they, Daddy? |
5617 | In a steamboat? |
5617 | Is Mount Vernon an old place? |
5617 | Is it a fire? |
5617 | Is it a fire? |
5617 | Is it to New York? |
5617 | Is it your cat? |
5617 | Is n''t he here? |
5617 | Is n''t this better than Blueberry Island? |
5617 | Is our dog Snap chasing you, or have you been playing a trick on our cat Snoop? |
5617 | Is she? |
5617 | Is that all? |
5617 | Is that so the President ca n''t get out? |
5617 | Is that what she came in here for-- a story book? |
5617 | Is the blue lion there? |
5617 | Is there a fire? |
5617 | Is this your hat? |
5617 | Just what did he do? |
5617 | Look at the way they''re painted? 5617 May we really go?" |
5617 | No school for a month? |
5617 | No school? |
5617 | No,answered Freddie,"Is it yours?" |
5617 | Now what does my little fat fairy have to say? |
5617 | Oh, Sam, did you like to swim? |
5617 | Oh, ca n''t we see it; whatever it is? |
5617 | Oh, is it a fire? |
5617 | Oh, is it two trips? |
5617 | Oh, is n''t this fun? |
5617 | Oh, it will soon be Christmas, wo n''t it? |
5617 | Oh, it''s just as nice as Blueberry Island or on the deep, blue sea, is n''t it, Bert? |
5617 | Oh, well, what I cares if I die in the poor- house? |
5617 | Oh, what can have happened to Freddie? |
5617 | Oh, what shall we do? |
5617 | Oh, where are they? 5617 Oh, where is he? |
5617 | Oh, you''re half of the Bobbsey twins, are n''t you? |
5617 | Playing a trick? |
5617 | Please, Sarah, ca n''t I have something to eat for the stray children, and maybe for the cat? |
5617 | Really do you mean it-- after all these years? |
5617 | Sailboats? |
5617 | Sailboats? |
5617 | See? 5617 Shall I go to get Sam?" |
5617 | Shall we go home for Christmas? |
5617 | Stray children, is it? |
5617 | Suppose these are n''t the right dishes, after all? 5617 Suppose what?" |
5617 | The snow wo n''t keep us from going to show in the theater; will it? |
5617 | The whole fire? |
5617 | Then where did the water come from? |
5617 | There are n''t so many cows as that; is there, Daddy? |
5617 | They can be in more places than you can think of; ca n''t they, Nan? |
5617 | They got safely back to Washington, did they? |
5617 | They would n''t let him, would they, Daddy? |
5617 | Two dollars? |
5617 | Two of your twins? |
5617 | Was any one hurt when the boiler burst? |
5617 | We may go, May n''t we, Jane? |
5617 | We''ll not be arrested, shall we? |
5617 | Well, did you have a good time? |
5617 | Well, then, how would you all like to go off on a trip? |
5617 | Were you kept in for doing something wrong? |
5617 | What are they? |
5617 | What are you going to do with it? |
5617 | What can we do? |
5617 | What do you mean about stray cats and stray children? |
5617 | What do you mean by stray cats and stray children? |
5617 | What do you mean? |
5617 | What do you want us to do? |
5617 | What else you want to buy, little childrens? |
5617 | What else you wants to buy, childrens? |
5617 | What for? |
5617 | What for? |
5617 | What for? |
5617 | What good would that do? 5617 What happened?" |
5617 | What is it you see, Nan? |
5617 | What is it, Snap? 5617 What is it, dear?" |
5617 | What is it? 5617 What is it?" |
5617 | What is this? |
5617 | What made you do it? |
5617 | What made you go after the stray cat? |
5617 | What shall I do? |
5617 | What sort of little boy was he? |
5617 | What tramp is that, and what about Miss Pompret''s dishes? |
5617 | What were you doing, Flossie? |
5617 | What you want to buy, little childrens? |
5617 | What''s the matter? 5617 What''s the matter?" |
5617 | What''s the matter? |
5617 | What''s the matter? |
5617 | What''s your names? |
5617 | What''s yours? |
5617 | What? 5617 What?" |
5617 | What? |
5617 | What? |
5617 | What? |
5617 | When are we going back? |
5617 | When are we going to see Billy and Nell? |
5617 | When can we start? |
5617 | When do we go? |
5617 | Where I get them? 5617 Where are Flossie and Freddie?" |
5617 | Where are they, Nan? |
5617 | Where are they? |
5617 | Where are they? |
5617 | Where are we going?'' 5617 Where did Flossie go, Freddie- boy?" |
5617 | Where did they come from? |
5617 | Where did you get them? |
5617 | Where do you live? |
5617 | Where do you suppose Flossie could have gone? |
5617 | Where do you want to go? |
5617 | Where have you been? |
5617 | Where have you been? |
5617 | Where is dey? 5617 Where is my little boy? |
5617 | Where now? |
5617 | Where were they? |
5617 | Where? |
5617 | Where? |

5617 | Who took them? |
5617 | Whut you done gone an''done to yo''l''il broth''an''sistah? 5617 Whut''s dish yeah has happened, Bert? |
5617 | Why are you home from school at such a time of day? |
5617 | Why ca n''t we have supper? |
5617 | Why do you ask? |
5617 | Why not? |
5617 | Why not? |
5617 | Why? |
5617 | Will there be a fire engine? |
5617 | Will there be any cowboys or Indians in it? |
5617 | Will there be much, do you think? |
5617 | Will you take us all? |
5617 | With the dog on the bottom? |
5617 | Wo n''t mother and father be surprised when they find we have the Pompret china? |
5617 | Wo n''t you come in, just for a minute? |
5617 | Would n''t it have been great if we had really found her milk pitcher and sugar bowl? |
5617 | You are n''t hurt, are you? |
5617 | You are n''t sure the tramp took the dishes, are you? |
5617 | You do n''t see anything of them yet, do you Dinah? |
5617 | You want those dishes? |
5617 | You want to buy them? |
5617 | A lot of money for rich childrens? |
5617 | A tramp?" |
5617 | And is the cat there?" |
5617 | And now how did you find them?" |
5617 | And now what do you think of my news?" |
5617 | And we fooled you, did n''t we? |
5617 | And where''s Freddie?" |
5617 | Are you under there?" |
5617 | Bert and Nan, do n''t you want to take Billy and Nell out in the yard and show them the lake? |
5617 | Bert, how could you?" |
5617 | But where are you going?" |
5617 | CHAPTER XV"WHERE ARE THEY?" |
5617 | Ca n''t you see? |
5617 | Ca n''t you stay a day or so?" |
5617 | Dat''s whut I''se askin''yo''all, Bert an''Nan? |
5617 | Did you really ride here in an auto?" |
5617 | Do they have whistles in here?" |
5617 | Do you think we paid too much for the dishes?" |
5617 | Gone where?" |
5617 | Has anything happened?" |
5617 | Has yo''all been playin''a trick on ole Dinah?" |
5617 | Have you seen her?" |
5617 | How about it, Mother?" |
5617 | How am mah little fat fairy and''mah little fireman?" |
5617 | How can I tells so long ago?" |
5617 | How did they come into our yard, do you think, Tom?" |
5617 | How much for these dishes-- this sugar bowl and pitcher?" |
5617 | How much you all got?" |
5617 | I wonder how they came to be in that second- hand store?" |
5617 | Mamma, do you suppose any of the people down here read all these books?" |
5617 | Martin?" |
5617 | Martin?" |
5617 | Miss Pompret saw Nan looking at this set of china, and the elderly lady smiled as she said:"Is n''t it beautiful?" |
5617 | Nan-- Bert-- Flossie-- Why, where is Freddie?" |
5617 | Not, however, before Nan had asked her father:"Where are you going to take us to- morrow?" |
5617 | Of how should I know? |
5617 | Oh, have you seen my little boy?" |
5617 | S''posin''these are n''t the ones Miss Pompret wants?" |
5617 | See that sugar bowl and pitcher?" |
5617 | Tell me, is the other set of twins larger than you two?" |
5617 | Ten cents? |
5617 | The tramp may have taken them; but what would he do with just two pieces? |
5617 | Then the automobile came to a stop, and some one asked:"What''s so wonderful to see here?" |
5617 | Then, turning to Nan he asked:"Would you like that sugar bowl and pitcher?" |
5617 | They''d be good enough to eat, would n''t they?" |
5617 | To Florida?" |
5617 | W.''?" |
5617 | Was n''t that funny?" |
5617 | What I care if you cheats a poor old man? |
5617 | What could Miss Pompret mean about a"mystery"connected with her set of china? |
5617 | What did he mean by saying that they were to come in and meet the"Washington children?" |
5617 | What do you want?" |
5617 | What has happened to Freddie?" |
5617 | What has happened?" |
5617 | What is it you want to say, Billy?" |
5617 | What is it? |
5617 | What you want to buy, little childrens?" |
5617 | What''s all this?" |
5617 | What''s the matter?" |
5617 | Where are you?" |
5617 | Where can my darlings have gone? |
5617 | Where did he go?" |
5617 | Where did you come from?" |
5617 | Where is Freddie?" |
5617 | Where is dem two little lambkins?" |
5617 | Where is you, Flossie? |
5617 | Where is you, Freddie?" |
5617 | Where''s Flossie?" |
5617 | Who were the"Washington children?" |
5617 | Whut''s all dish yeah I heah Nan say?" |
5617 | Why did n''t you tell me that Flossie was going away?" |
5617 | Why did you wander away?" |
5617 | Why?" |
5617 | Would n''t you?" |
5617 | You could n''t make it a dollar thirty- five, could you?" |
5617 | You saw her dishes, did n''t you?" |
5617 | do n''t you know what this means? |
5617 | what have you been doing?" |
5617 | what made you do it?" |
5617 | where did you go and what have you been doing?" |
6091 | Ah? 6091 Ah? |
6091 | Ai n''t that a great speech? |
6091 | Am I about to be re- born? |
6091 | Am I to be responsible for the development of her character? 6091 And I am really to live in this wonderful city?" |
6091 | And are we going to war in order to release them? |
6091 | And desert my_ salon?_asked Betty, lightly. |
6091 | And if I have my_ salon_, shall I come under suspicion of being a high- class lobbyist? |
6091 | And live among niggers? 6091 And which is Senator Ward?" |
6091 | And will you never take me in your arms? 6091 And you mean to say that you judge all the old States of the country by a newly settled community of adventurers out West?" |
6091 | And you? 6091 Ar''n''t you really happy?" |
6091 | Are they going to talk politics to- night? |
6091 | Are you happy here, Harriet? |
6091 | Are you in trouble at home? 6091 Are you not frightfully tired?" |
6091 | Are you quite well? 6091 Are you sorry I told you I loved you? |
6091 | Are you sorry that you have engaged yourself to him? |
6091 | Are you sure? 6091 Are you sure?" |
6091 | Are you, too, happy? |
6091 | Betty,said Senator North, one morning a fortnight later,"how much do you like Burleigh? |
6091 | Betty? |
6091 | But do you mean to say these other men do n''t see through her? |
6091 | Can you give me the whole morning? 6091 Can you stay away?" |
6091 | Can you? |
6091 | Corrupt? 6091 D''you mean he did n''t know me? |
6091 | Did you go? 6091 Did you suppose that I should allow you to row through that lane alone? |
6091 | Do n''t you want to listen to your Senator? 6091 Do ye? |
6091 | Do you believe in reincarnation? |
6091 | Do you feel very strongly on the subject? |
6091 | Do you know this? 6091 Do you love anybody now?" |
6091 | Do you mean that old Mrs. Sawyer has left? 6091 Do you mean that you are going to vote?--or run for Congress?--but women do n''t sit in Congress, do they?" |
6091 | Do you mean the ninety Senators and the three hundred and fifty- six Representatives? 6091 Do you mean,"she asked,"do you think that Mr. Emory is beginning to care for Sally?" |
6091 | Do you realize what you are saying?--that you have put me aside for ever? 6091 Do you see nothing?" |
6091 | Does any one know the truth about the Senate? 6091 Does she seem any happier? |
6091 | Does she think that will make life easier for her? |
6091 | Even if you told me to marry another man? |
6091 | Exactly how much do you know about American politics? |
6091 | For what else does civilization mean,she thought,"if those of us that have its highest advantages are not wiser and more fastidious than the mob? |
6091 | Glad of what, may I ask? |
6091 | Has she decided to shut herself up within herself? |
6091 | Has she negro blood in her veins? |
6091 | Has she that most detestable vulgarity of her class, curiosity? |
6091 | Have you been crying, darling? |
6091 | Have you ever been happy-- here? |
6091 | Have you heard of me? |
6091 | Have you loved many women? |
6091 | He certainly is very much of a man,admitted Betty,"but what on earth are we to do with all these papers? |
6091 | Hey? |
6091 | How are you? |
6091 | How did you guess that she had the taint in her? |
6091 | How do you and Mary manage to live in the same house? |
6091 | How do you do, Mrs. Mudd? 6091 How is that Tariff Bill going?" |
6091 | How long will it be before I shall have seen all the beautiful things inside those buildings? 6091 How much?" |
6091 | How on earth do you know what a man is like on the inside? 6091 How shall we ever be able to keep her secret? |
6091 | I do n''t want to stay all night, do you? |
6091 | I suppose all the Senators here to- night are the-- big ones? |
6091 | I suppose you''re engaged to Senator Burleigh by this time? 6091 I went to the White House last night,"she said,"and was delighted to find that the President had the most charming manners--""What''s a manner?" |
6091 | I wonder, how much you mean? 6091 If intelligent people get into that condition,"thought Betty,"what can be expected of the fools? |
6091 | Is he representative, that man? 6091 Is he?" |
6091 | Is there a woman in your life? 6091 Is there any new trouble?" |
6091 | Is this the grand finale of the people''s rule? |
6091 | It is even worse than my going over to politics, is n''t it? 6091 Laws, Miss Madison, have you gone blind all of a sudden? |
6091 | Miss Madison, may I see you to your carriage? |
6091 | Miss Trumbull, is it not? 6091 Monarchy?" |
6091 | Now,he said,"what is it? |
6091 | Or merely rejuvenated? 6091 Politics? |
6091 | Shall you tell him? |
6091 | She knows? 6091 So? |
6091 | Tell me,exclaimed Betty,"please-- are all these people in politics? |
6091 | Tell me,she drawled wheedlingly,"that''s your beau, ai n''t it? |
6091 | That you should live to ask me such a question as that? |
6091 | Then he comes here with the intention of remaining for life? 6091 Then you admit it is mere curiosity? |
6091 | Was it you? 6091 Was night ever so welcome before?" |
6091 | Was there not a famous one in the days of 1812, and did she not love a British officer-- or something of that sort? |
6091 | Well, what did you get? 6091 Well, what have you been doing?" |
6091 | Well? |
6091 | Well? |
6091 | Well? |
6091 | What are we coming to? |
6091 | What are we to do about this creature? |
6091 | What are you going to do about it? |
6091 | What are you thinking of? |
6091 | What can be the matter? |
6091 | What d''you mean? |
6091 | What did he say? |
6091 | What difference does it make whether he appeared to my waking eyes or passed through my sleeping brain and sat down with my soul? |
6091 | What do you mean? |
6091 | What do you mean? |
6091 | What does it mean? |
6091 | What does she say about politicians in general? |
6091 | What has she seen? |
6091 | What have you been doing? |
6091 | What have you made up your mind to do? |
6091 | What is it, for heaven''s sake? |
6091 | What is it? |
6091 | What is it? |
6091 | What is your ideal type? |
6091 | What kind of women do you fall in love with? |
6091 | What of his inner man? |
6091 | What of your visit and its consequences? |
6091 | What on earth has happened now? |
6091 | What on earth made me want to give those cigars to Senator North?--to give him anything? 6091 What on earth should I do with a husband?" |
6091 | What shall I talk to you about? |
6091 | What''s happened to ye? |
6091 | What-- Jack and Harriet? |
6091 | What? |
6091 | What_ have_ I launched upon the world? |
6091 | When can you come up here to stay? |
6091 | When can you leave here? 6091 Where did you learn it? |
6091 | Where on earth is Harriet? |
6091 | Where_ do_ you s''pose I could have met the President before? 6091 Who has not?" |
6091 | Who is Harriet? |
6091 | Who the deuce can he be? |
6091 | Who would be a Western Senator? |
6091 | Whom is she watching? |
6091 | Whom is she watching? |
6091 | Why did I not think of that? 6091 Why did you never marry, Sally?" |
6091 | Why do n''t they listen? 6091 Why do n''t you go there and live, set up a sort of court?" |
6091 | Why do you despise the great American public? 6091 Why do you say this to me-- now?" |
6091 | Why should we go to war with Spain? |
6091 | Why? |
6091 | Will you come and see me on Sunday? |
6091 | Will you come for a walk? |
6091 | Will you come in often on your way home when you are tired and would like to forget bills and things, and let me play to you? 6091 Will you come into my room?" |
6091 | Will you have a cigarette? |
6091 | Will you play for me? |
6091 | Will you take me fishing? |
6091 | Will you take me with you? |
6091 | Would Washington have gone? |
6091 | Would he advise it now, supposing he could? |
6091 | Would you sacrifice yourself absolutely to your country? |
6091 | Yes, sir; member of your family, I presume? |
6091 | You are going to do what? |
6091 | You believe me always, do n''t you? |
6091 | You do not misunderstand that? |
6091 | A half- century hence and where will the love that dwells in every fibre of me now, have gone? |
6091 | After all, what is even a Senate but a toy for a pretty woman? |
6091 | After all, why should he care to call on her? |
6091 | Ai n''t you glad I told you?" |
6091 | Aloud she said,--"Would not you like to go to Europe for a year or so? |
6091 | Am I inconsiderate to talk like this when you are so worried? |
6091 | And did he believe that it could last? |
6091 | And did you ever see so many flowers outside of a conservatory?" |
6091 | And he? |
6091 | And herself? |
6091 | And his heart? |
6091 | And how long? |
6091 | And those hysterical members of the House, whose speeches make me wonder if humour is really a national quality?" |
6091 | And was she a chosen instrument to right one at least of the great wrongs perpetrated by the brilliant, warm- hearted, reckless men of her race? |
6091 | And what on earth made you put on that horrid gown? |
6091 | And what would you do with your brain? |
6091 | And you let her go?" |
6091 | And you say she is quite white? |
6091 | Are they all married?" |
6091 | Are you ambitious?" |
6091 | Are you going after her? |
6091 | Are you going to marry Burleigh?" |
6091 | Are you hungry?" |
6091 | Are you satisfied with the Tariff Bill?" |
6091 | Are you willing to admit that it is all over? |
6091 | B. M.""It has a rather heartless ring,"she thought with a sigh,"but it will intrigue him, and-- who knows? |
6091 | Betty could hear her exclaim:"But why? |
6091 | Betty, what on earth do you find so interesting in Fifth Avenue? |
6091 | But I''m real glad you like gittin''up early--""Will you kindly send me a boy?" |
6091 | But the other? |
6091 | But what can I do? |
6091 | But you will admit, will you not, that I am old enough to choose my own life?" |
6091 | But you will come to the Senate to- morrow? |
6091 | Ca n''t I take you up to the Senate to- morrow and put you in our private gallery? |
6091 | Ca n''t you and your father come for a month or two? |
6091 | Ca n''t you dine with me to- morrow? |
6091 | Ca n''t you dine with me to- night? |
6091 | Can not you feel for them?" |
6091 | Can not you understand high- mindedness?" |
6091 | Can they really be my fate? |
6091 | Can you think of an excuse to make to Jack? |
6091 | Could I afford a teacher?" |
6091 | Could duty be more plain? |
6091 | Could it last? |
6091 | Could n''t I pretend to stay at the hotel all day?" |
6091 | Could you idealize a live thing in striped trousers and a frock coat?" |
6091 | Did he love Harriet? |
6091 | Did her daughter, despite the health manifest in her splendid young figure, feel the first chill of some mortal disease? |
6091 | Did you enjoy California?" |
6091 | Do I understand that that is the sort of thing you expect me to do?" |
6091 | Do you ever go to the Senate or the House?" |
6091 | Do you guess? |
6091 | Do you know that it is over three months since I saw you last?" |
6091 | Do you know the way?" |
6091 | Do you know, Miss Madison, I paid twenty- six calls on Thursday, eighteen on Friday and twelve on Saturday? |
6091 | Do you mean that I can go through all of them? |
6091 | Do you mind all the talk about your being unpatriotic, and that sort of thing? |
6091 | Do you see the parable? |
6091 | Do you suppose I tell my friends everything I know? |
6091 | Do you think I should be afraid of death? |
6091 | Do you think it was necessary to tell me? |
6091 | Do you understand?" |
6091 | Do you want war?" |
6091 | Do you wish me to come? |
6091 | Do you wish me to stay with you? |
6091 | Had he thought of this? |
6091 | Has it turned out all right?" |
6091 | Have I got to go through life without that? |
6091 | Have the Norths come?" |
6091 | Have you any hope left?" |
6091 | Have you any talent for music?" |
6091 | Have you had luncheon? |
6091 | Have you investigated the life of every man in the Senate and the House?" |
6091 | Have you noticed in Washington-- or anywhere in the South-- that a negro is always seen with a girl at least one shade whiter than himself? |
6091 | He''s powerful eloquent, ai n''t he?" |
6091 | He_ will_ look well in bronze-- but they only put Generals on horseback, do n''t they? |
6091 | Hev you seen the new library?" |
6091 | His idea is that politics are to become a sort of second nature with me before I start my_ salon_--Why do you smile cynically? |
6091 | How about Senator Maxwell?" |
6091 | How am I to live on and on and on? |
6091 | How and when did he buy his seat, and what Trust does he represent?" |
6091 | How could you settle down contentedly to practise law in a Western city for six years?" |
6091 | How do you like Senator Burleigh?" |
6091 | How is the lady of the shadows?" |
6091 | How old is he?" |
6091 | However-- Yes?" |
6091 | I am sure that is the way you feel, dear Cousin Molly-- is it not? |
6091 | I near lost my temper, for I guess I know when it''s hot--""What were you doing on the roof of the veranda last night?" |
6091 | I shall ask instead if you still find time to come up and see us occasionally, and if we improve on acquaintance?" |
6091 | I thought you were going to say,''Do n''t interrupt, please,''or''Would you kindly be quiet until I finish?'' |
6091 | I will come straight home and shut myself up in my boudoir-- for hours-- to be with you in a way-- Shall I? |
6091 | If happiness never came, perhaps you would not care-- would you?" |
6091 | If the barriers went down she must look into what? |
6091 | If you had not met me, do you think you could have loved him?" |
6091 | In some great critical moment when a dictator seems necessary they will shrug their shoulders and say,''Why not?''" |
6091 | Is it a compact?" |
6091 | Is it impossible for you to go to- day?" |
6091 | Is n''t that close by your place?" |
6091 | Is that, too, senatorial?" |
6091 | Is there any one on the other side?" |
6091 | Is your pa one of the leadin''six?" |
6091 | Jack Emory? |
6091 | Mr. Montgomery, you are really a Southerner-- ar''n''t you glad to get back to darky cooks?" |
6091 | Must not personal matters seem of small account to- night? |
6091 | Must she give him up? |
6091 | North?" |
6091 | North?" |
6091 | Of course American women do n''t take much interest in politics, but-- do you know as little as you pretend?" |
6091 | On Thursday afternoon Betty and Sally were rowing on the lake when the latter said abruptly,--"Have you noticed anything between Jack and Harriet?" |
6091 | Or are you hoping for blackmail? |
6091 | Or did he care? |
6091 | Or was he too weary to care for anything but sleep? |
6091 | Or would he care if he did remember? |
6091 | Poor folks ca n''t pick and choose, and I suppose you would n''t mind my havin''a friend with me in the winter, would you?" |
6091 | Poor thing, why was she ever born?" |
6091 | Senator Burleigh? |
6091 | Senator North''s face hardened, and Betty, fearing that he would go, said hurriedly,--"Ar''n''t you ever going to speak again? |
6091 | Shall I go abroad? |
6091 | Shall you march her home by the ear?" |
6091 | She added abruptly:"Does Sally suspect?" |
6091 | She added in a moment,"Will you always come to my Thursday evenings, no matter what happens?" |
6091 | She commands union; and as the years went by and one memory grew dimmer-- who knew? |
6091 | She knows?" |
6091 | She would not go without me, and in spite of everything, I am almost ashamed to say, I have been very happy here--""Is that all? |
6091 | Should she, with her inheritance of kindly forces within and without, deliberately readjust her manifest lines into a likeness of Harriet Walker''s? |
6091 | So would you mind if I asked you not even to write to me? |
6091 | So you are resigned, are you not, Molly dear?" |
6091 | So you were haunting''pubs''when I supposed you were yawning at home? |
6091 | So, I repeat, what do you know about the American politics of to- day?" |
6091 | Some one who makes you happy?" |
6091 | Tell me,"she went on rapidly and with little further attempt at self- control;"what shall I do next? |
6091 | The President grasped her hand and said,"How do you do, Miss Madison?" |
6091 | The redoubtable Mr. Legrand, also of Maine, upon whom the shafts of an embittered minority seem to fall so harmlessly; and Mr. Armstrong-- who is he? |
6091 | Then he said,--"Can you do without what we have?" |
6091 | There is no lonelier spot in America; and with the forest full of negroes-- were you mad to think of such a thing?" |
6091 | They''re real elegant, ar''n''t they? |
6091 | VIII"How many politicians are coming this afternoon?" |
6091 | Ward? |
6091 | Was she going to him? |
6091 | Was she not a Woman? |
6091 | Was the word he would not utter"Wait"? |
6091 | Was this man she loved so passionately to go on to the end of his life only guessing what the Fates forbade him? |
6091 | Well, Betty, how do you like your new toy? |
6091 | Well, what difference? |
6091 | What am I to do when it is over?" |
6091 | What did you learn in Boston and New York?" |
6091 | What do you think?" |
6091 | What else have you been doing?" |
6091 | What if he were a Senator? |
6091 | What is he wasting his wind for, anyway? |
6091 | What is her secret?" |
6091 | What is it?" |
6091 | What is that?" |
6091 | What is the matter? |
6091 | What on earth is to be done?" |
6091 | What pleasure could she find in sitting here with him if her mother''s apprehensive mind did not leave the room for a moment? |
6091 | What pleasure if a vulgar world were whispering? |
6091 | What relation is she to us, anyway? |
6091 | What should she see? |
6091 | What story of her birth and family do you suppose she told him? |
6091 | What terrible purpose was she made to live twenty- four wretched years for? |
6091 | What was love that it defied the Will? |
6091 | What will Jack Emory say?" |
6091 | What''ll the Lode say to me? |
6091 | What''s to prevent her taking her revenge? |
6091 | What''s to prevent her writing to Jack any minute? |
6091 | What-- what-- should I have done without charities when Society palled?" |
6091 | What? |
6091 | Where air you from? |
6091 | Where have you been? |
6091 | Where is this camp- meeting?" |
6091 | Which is Senator North?" |
6091 | Who are the Representatives? |
6091 | Who are these plainly dressed women and-- and-- half- way ones?" |
6091 | Who on earth ever said he was corrupt?" |
6091 | Who? |
6091 | Whom were you watching?" |
6091 | Why are some women ever born? |
6091 | Why could not she shake up her brain as one shakes up a misused sofa- cushion and beat it into proper shape? |
6091 | Why do you ask?" |
6091 | Why do you want a_ salon_? |
6091 | Why do you wish to go to this camp- meeting?" |
6091 | Why have all these men so much magnetism? |
6091 | Why on earth do women let their nerves run away with them, in the first place? |
6091 | Why should I tell Mr. Emory-- or anyone else?" |
6091 | Why should he not? |
6091 | Why should n''t she?" |
6091 | Why should she of all women hesitate to demand a half- hour''s time of any man? |
6091 | Why should we go to war about them?" |
6091 | Why was I ever born?" |
6091 | Will it be dust with my dust, or vigorous with eternal youth in some poor girl who never heard my name?" |
6091 | Will you come downstairs for a few moments?" |
6091 | Will you come into the next lake? |
6091 | Will you come out into the hall a moment?" |
6091 | Will you dine with us to- night? |
6091 | Will you forget it? |
6091 | Will you go in first?" |
6091 | Will you help me?" |
6091 | Will-- would it mean anything to you?" |
6091 | Wo n''t you come in?" |
6091 | Would it be easier if I had not?" |
6091 | Would n''t you like to go to the Riviera, and then to London for the season?" |
6091 | Would you mind staying here with the Colonel and Sally for another ten days and then returning with them? |
6091 | Would you mind telling me who you are? |
6091 | Would you mind telling me your name? |
6091 | XIV"Do all Southerners make such delicious coffee?" |
6091 | XVI"Do you dislike her?" |
6091 | You are married?" |
6091 | You know that, do you not?" |
6091 | You like to get up early, do n''t you? |
6091 | _ What_ was in the brain behind those sad reproachful eyes? |
6091 | _ Why_ do n''t you?" |
6091 | ai n''t he fascinating?" |
6091 | and were her spirits affecting his? |
6091 | he thought,"and why does n''t he speak?" |
45045 | ''Where the streets were so wide and the lanes were so narrow?'' |
45045 | Ah-- can''t you bring him out here? |
45045 | All are well, I suppose? |
45045 | Am I changed? |
45045 | Am I? 45045 And Annis?" |
45045 | And I can come now and then as a friend? |
45045 | And Louis-- is everybody safe? |
45045 | And Varina? 45045 And do you remember we came up to Mr. Madison''s inauguration and went to the Capitol? |
45045 | And if you stay for the ball will you not come over again? 45045 And is Marian as happy as you?" |
45045 | And is n''t the husband always the oldest, papa? 45045 And no dear ones are lost? |
45045 | And not President? |
45045 | And now are we to crawl through this dismal glade? 45045 And now you are on my side?" |
45045 | And ride by moonlight? |
45045 | And that dainty little Annis? 45045 And the doctor?" |
45045 | And the visit? |
45045 | And we can not always keep up to the mark-- is that what you mean me to infer? |
45045 | And what did you say? 45045 And what do you think, Annis?" |
45045 | And when are you coming up to Georgetown? |
45045 | And why did n''t you go to Philadelphia? |
45045 | And you are very happy? 45045 And you have n''t been trying your strength leaping over five- barred gates or jumping ditches, or perhaps riding too much?" |
45045 | And you leave me in the lurch? |
45045 | And you love me? |
45045 | And you mean to wait for that? |
45045 | And you think you can not come? |
45045 | And you will love me better than anyone else? |
45045 | And you-- must you be mother to_ all_ the children? 45045 And your grandmother? |
45045 | And, papa, can he marry her? |
45045 | Angry? |
45045 | Annis, do you love him? 45045 Annis,"he exclaimed regretfully, resignedly,"I do not suppose you ever could marry me?" |
45045 | Are you glad to come here and do you like them all? |
45045 | Are you glad to see me? |
45045 | Are you going to hold an auction? |
45045 | Are you going? |
45045 | Are you happy and satisfied, Marian, or miserable? |
45045 | Are you not going to stay to the supper? |
45045 | Are you really going to stay single forever? |
45045 | Are you still angry with Jaqueline? |
45045 | Are you very angry still? |
45045 | But I suppose you have a surfeit over the Potomac? |
45045 | But I wonder-- oh, Jaqueline, do you suppose I will have to marry Mr. Greaves? 45045 But I''ll be sure to get well, wo n''t I?" |
45045 | But Marian and-- Annis-- can they not join us? |
45045 | But Marian? |
45045 | But did you ever love Mr. Greaves, Marian? |
45045 | But he is always asking me about Marian, and why she does n''t come? |
45045 | But he ought to be able to tell whether one is pretty or not, ought n''t he, Eliza? |
45045 | But if I should never marry? |
45045 | But if Jane does? |
45045 | But if she loved him? |
45045 | But mamma? |
45045 | But were you not afraid? |
45045 | But what did you spend your time at-- if you did n''t go to school? |
45045 | But where to in such fine feather? |
45045 | But why do you not like her? |
45045 | But you could n''t have done it at first? |
45045 | But you promised to ride with me, did n''t you, Annis? 45045 But you will stay and have some supper with us? |
45045 | But, then, you have your country''s good at heart? |
45045 | But-- what will-- Rene do? |
45045 | Ca n''t I walk where I like? 45045 Ca n''t little girls ever see anything?" |
45045 | Ca n''t you give me mamma''s welcome also? |
45045 | Can I say just what I should like? |
45045 | Can you wonder at it? |
45045 | Chloe, have you made preparations for a host at supper, and a hungry host again about nine o''clock? 45045 Collaston, has anything been heard of Ralston? |
45045 | Could I ever have been so silly, Jaqueline? |
45045 | Could n''t she have come here for a week or two, before we start? |
45045 | Dear Jaqueline,she said with a tender accent,"do you think you will like my going to the ball? |
45045 | Did I frown? |
45045 | Did he write? 45045 Did n''t Annis want to come with you?" |
45045 | Did they bring the baby? 45045 Did you ask her?" |
45045 | Did you get tired of the nonsense? |
45045 | Did you go to the ball? |
45045 | Did you guess that Lieutenant Ralston cared? 45045 Do you dare to tell me there was no underhand plan in all this? |
45045 | Do you know whether Marian had a letter from him soon after the holidays? |
45045 | Do you know, Marian, I consider you a very foolish girl-- superstitious, as well? 45045 Do you mean that Jaqueline does n''t care for any of them? |
45045 | Do you mean to make us marry whoever you like? |
45045 | Do you not think I had better accompany you? |
45045 | Do you remember,said Varina laughingly,"that I used to oppose a marriage between you and Annis? |
45045 | Do you suppose I am coward enough to relinquish the woman I love in such an emergency as this? 45045 Do you suppose grandpapa is in real earnest? |
45045 | Do you suppose she gave the letter to him? |
45045 | Do you suppose this gold- thread embroidery will look like that imported stuff? |
45045 | Do you suppose we''ll be asked to the wedding? |
45045 | Do you want all of her back? 45045 Does a young man appreciate his inestimable privileges when he has a sister on whom he can practice?" |
45045 | Does she not look well, Roger? 45045 Does the doctor think he_ will_ recover?" |
45045 | Finer than Philadelphia? |
45045 | Has Charles been cross to you? |
45045 | Has Miss Mason any relatives in the war? |
45045 | Has it been foolishness? 45045 His devotion to me? |
45045 | How could we help it, when our poor sailors were snatched from their own vessels and made to fight against us or be beaten to death? 45045 How did he fall?" |
45045 | How did that come about? 45045 How many days has it been?" |
45045 | How would we have sent her back? |
45045 | I am very glad I am not an English child, are n''t you, Eliza? 45045 I do believe I was the first one to take a real fancy to you; and do you remember how Rene quarreled with you about the babies? |
45045 | I do wonder if it would be wrong to give Ralston an inkling of how the case stands? 45045 I do wonder if you really love me?" |
45045 | I do wonder what grandmamma will give me? 45045 I have taken you to my heart and home-- doesn''t that count? |
45045 | I suppose Dolly is really in love? |
45045 | I suppose the lieutenant is quite crowded out of it all? |
45045 | I suppose, mamma, I could n''t go with you? |
45045 | I tried-- oh, yes, I did; but I_ was_ weak----"Is it too late to go back? |
45045 | I was playing with the babies----"Surely it was n''t Aunt Jane? |
45045 | I wonder if I might see him? |
45045 | I wonder if there is a little fate in that? |
45045 | I wonder if you could be induced to take the young ladies to a reception to- morrow evening? |
45045 | I wonder if you will ever feel friendly enough to invite me? 45045 I wonder when you will see Miss Floyd?" |
45045 | I''m not teasing you, Annis, am I? 45045 In an hour?" |
45045 | Is Annis my sister truly, papa? |
45045 | Is Patricia getting ready? |
45045 | Is n''t it time I grew? 45045 Is the world going crazy? |
45045 | Jane,_ do_ you think you can manage these girls for a few days and keep them out of the clutches of the young men? 45045 Jaqueline, ca n''t you think of the magic touch that will bring these two together? |
45045 | Jaqueline, have you any idea of how fortunate you are? 45045 Let me see-- is there anyone near here that answers the requirements?" |
45045 | Mamma-- don''t_ you_ want me? |
45045 | Miss Mason,he began abruptly,"when have you seen Miss Floyd?" |
45045 | Money again? 45045 Mrs. Jettson would be likely to know-- of a visit?" |
45045 | Must we go to- day? |
45045 | Not in case of necessity? |
45045 | Of course Jane means to join the family party? |
45045 | Oh, Louis, why do you tease the children so? |
45045 | Oh, are you ready? |
45045 | Oh, dear, can one learn so much? |
45045 | Oh, do you think it was_ that_? |
45045 | Oh, do you think we shall all be burned up? |
45045 | Oh, does n''t it? 45045 Oh, little Annis, have you thrown me over? |
45045 | Oh, what can I do? 45045 Oh, where is mamma?" |
45045 | Oh, will they jump over the candles? |
45045 | Ought she not, Cousin Preston? 45045 Papa,"said Charles after a pause,"shall you leave the plantation and everything to Louis because he is the oldest?" |
45045 | Papa,she said in a plaintive tone a day or two after Stafford''s visit,"should you be very sorry if I-- were to-- stay single-- always?" |
45045 | Polly-- you will come to- morrow? |
45045 | Shall I go or write? |
45045 | Shall I write to your father, or come? |
45045 | Shall we go within? |
45045 | She wo n''t love you best, will you, Annis? 45045 Still, you will say it?" |
45045 | Suppose I do not care to be hurried by a fit of anger on your part? 45045 Suppose it were Jaqueline?" |
45045 | Suppose the Indians had come? |
45045 | Suppose we go up and have a look at this wonderful flag? 45045 Tell me the truth, sir? |
45045 | The headaches? 45045 Then why do n''t you ask Jaqueline to love you again? |
45045 | Then you could not persuade Miss Floyd? |
45045 | Then you have a conscience? |
45045 | Then you think I have been angry long enough? |
45045 | To see me? |
45045 | Was n''t Mr. Adams over there a long while-- and the great Mr. Benjamin Franklin, and Mr. Jay, and ever so many others? 45045 We do n''t want papa changed any, do we?" |
45045 | We think to some purpose, too, do n''t we? 45045 We? |
45045 | Well, what is it? |
45045 | Well,_ what_ did he say? |
45045 | Well-- what else? |
45045 | Well-- why do you not answer? |
45045 | Well-- will you bid him welcome and Godspeed? |
45045 | Were you very cross and stern, papa? |
45045 | What Virginia girl does not? |
45045 | What are Jaqueline''s plans? |
45045 | What can the wretched little army do against four thousand trained British soldiers? 45045 What did I look like, dropping at your feet? |
45045 | What do you know about the sea? |
45045 | What do you most desire? |
45045 | What happened? |
45045 | What happened? |
45045 | What is it, little Annis? 45045 What is this?" |
45045 | What makes you think she was sorry? |
45045 | What was that for? |
45045 | What-- down to the marsh? 45045 Whatever is the matter?" |
45045 | Where are the Admiral and General Ross? |
45045 | Where are the girls? |
45045 | Where is Louis? 45045 Where is Roger?" |
45045 | Where is the doctor? 45045 Why ca n''t you move up to Washington? |
45045 | Why can I not go? 45045 Why do you want to go away, then?" |
45045 | Why not? |
45045 | Will you give my congratulations to your sister? |
45045 | Will you not come downstairs? |
45045 | Will you read this note? |
45045 | Wo n''t you take me out with you? |
45045 | Would n''t they? 45045 Would you be afraid to go to England?" |
45045 | Would you want an old maid? |
45045 | Wrote again-- then he did not forget? |
45045 | Yes; where is that deceitful girl? 45045 You are quite sure you ca n''t remember any fall down there at Williamsburg?" |
45045 | You do love me, little Annis, do you not? |
45045 | You do n''t mean that he is in real earnest about that widower and the houseful of children? |
45045 | You do n''t mean that you still consider yourself engaged? |
45045 | You do n''t really want to tell me that you have a fancy for this wretched old fellow? |
45045 | You love Charles as much as ever, then? 45045 You mean Lieutenant Ralston?" |
45045 | You ride, of course? |
45045 | You saw Ralston that dreadful morning? |
45045 | You were down there? |
45045 | You would n''t make me marry him? |
45045 | After this show of proper and ceremonious behavior you can not refuse her permission?" |
45045 | All these years he had been bitter and resentful, but if he were dying----"Can you not fly at once? |
45045 | Am I never to have you any more?" |
45045 | And I suppose it was a matter of satisfaction to leave that wild land behind you and return to the home of your childhood? |
45045 | And all these large children? |
45045 | And are you sure the lieutenant was in earnest?" |
45045 | And do you know Charles is ill and in the doctor''s hands at Philadelphia?" |
45045 | And does n''t he love Marian any more?" |
45045 | And how do you know but that I''ll marry her myself? |
45045 | And how was it_ he_ should come at this particular juncture?" |
45045 | And if we should beat England again, would n''t it be magnificent? |
45045 | And is it quite fair, do you think? |
45045 | And jumping over the candles-- do you remember that, Polly? |
45045 | And now have I not bored you enough? |
45045 | And now, little Annis, is n''t it all made up? |
45045 | And so you want Annis for a sweetheart, Charles? |
45045 | And was n''t Jaqueline glad to see Lieutenant Ralston again? |
45045 | And what if I_ had_ loved him?" |
45045 | And what then? |
45045 | And when he thinks a woman''s love has failed----""Do you speak from experience?" |
45045 | And where would one find a more devoted couple than the President and his wife, who had had her youthful love and misfortunes and sorrows? |
45045 | And why could he not have the same trust in her? |
45045 | And why not accept our hospitality for the night?" |
45045 | And why should I be so desperately glad? |
45045 | And would she need to take sides anywhere? |
45045 | And you like me, do n''t you, Annis?" |
45045 | And you will be up often this winter? |
45045 | And, Patricia? |
45045 | And-- are you going next week?" |
45045 | Annis belongs to me, do n''t you, little girl? |
45045 | Annis, what will you do?" |
45045 | Annis, why do you change color?" |
45045 | Are n''t the cookies good enough to be peacemakers?" |
45045 | Are you almost frozen? |
45045 | Are you anywhere in her vicinity? |
45045 | Are you going to stay long enough to go to a ball? |
45045 | Are you not proud of your country?" |
45045 | Are you quite sure you will not prove a tyrant?" |
45045 | Are you to go to the levee?" |
45045 | Are you very homesick?" |
45045 | Aunt Catharine was good, but she fussed so much, and she''s always saying,''Now, do n''t you think you ought to do this, or give up doing that? |
45045 | Bricks, was n''t it? |
45045 | But I suppose you are not afraid of him, since his heart is-- oh, can you tell where it is? |
45045 | But he was Roger''s friend as well? |
45045 | But if_ you_ had left four children you would n''t want me for their stepmother, would you, now? |
45045 | But tell me, did they really put out Prince Arthur''s eyes? |
45045 | But what could anyone say about such a new country? |
45045 | But what have_ you_ done in this matter?" |
45045 | But what mattered when they came back to the level of love? |
45045 | But, oh, was her own dear mother not hers any more? |
45045 | But, then, what country is not? |
45045 | Can I do anything for you? |
45045 | Can Jaqueline be moved?" |
45045 | Can you not lay an embargo on them?" |
45045 | Carrington?" |
45045 | Charles, have you seen enough of Washington?" |
45045 | Chloe knew all about the bed and table linen: did n''t she bleach it up every spring in May dew? |
45045 | Come, do n''t you want a little ride with me before I go to town?" |
45045 | Come-- you do like us a little, do you not?" |
45045 | Could anyone be a lady- love to two persons? |
45045 | Could he not call on her? |
45045 | Could her father have made_ her_ give up her lover? |
45045 | Could she not see? |
45045 | Did Jaqueline really love him? |
45045 | Did Ralston know that he had been considered a sort of marplot? |
45045 | Did anyone have a more beautiful frock? |
45045 | Did he half envy Roger Carrington? |
45045 | Did n''t Shakspere call it nimble wit? |
45045 | Did not money measure most of the things in this life? |
45045 | Did not you find it sweet? |
45045 | Did she mean to be a schoolmistress? |
45045 | Did she really want to go? |
45045 | Did she think he had forgotten all? |
45045 | Did she truly belong to father Mason? |
45045 | Did you hear that poor Mr. Greaves is dead at last? |
45045 | Did you never have any brothers or sisters?" |
45045 | Did you not bring that scheming adventurer down here to meet Marian?" |
45045 | Did you see much that was new in Baltimore, Madam Patricia? |
45045 | Did you take enough exercise?" |
45045 | Did you think me queer and strange that Christmas?" |
45045 | Do I interrupt anything important?" |
45045 | Do I look as if I had no courteous speeches at my command?" |
45045 | Do I really look old enough for a grandfather?" |
45045 | Do n''t you know Jack told you we were always taking sides?" |
45045 | Do n''t you remember you used to wish for a sister like Sallie Reed? |
45045 | Do n''t you sometimes feel a little afraid of them?" |
45045 | Do n''t you think it hard for a little girl to be giving up her mother continually? |
45045 | Do n''t you think they might both have been made handsomer without any great detriment to the world? |
45045 | Do they let you go to balls as young as this?" |
45045 | Do you feel sure that we will?" |
45045 | Do you imagine they kindled the fire on the rocks and boiled the kettle as we do when we go off in the woods for a day''s pleasure?" |
45045 | Do you know whether she has a lover? |
45045 | Do you know whether the Masons, like the old Scotch woman''s ancestors, had a boat of their own at the time of the flood?" |
45045 | Do you not think it would be better to send her over to the convent to steady her, Patty?" |
45045 | Do you really mean me to have it? |
45045 | Do you suppose he would if he knew it? |
45045 | Do you suppose she will?" |
45045 | Do you suppose they will go on as we work a sampler, make little letters and then Old- English text? |
45045 | Do you suppose we can stand_ everything_? |
45045 | Do you think Miss Floyd may have told her father?" |
45045 | Do you think they will be likely to discharge me, Annis?" |
45045 | Do you want to stay for the dancing? |
45045 | Does n''t it seem funny to have Patty among the big people and going to the White House to dinner? |
45045 | Does she read you lectures?" |
45045 | Greaves?" |
45045 | Had he expected to see her faded and worn in this brief period? |
45045 | Had he loved her own mother in that fashion? |
45045 | Had he not fought for the country,_ her_ country? |
45045 | Had he really accepted her desire without a protest? |
45045 | Had he sneered over it? |
45045 | Had she given herself away when father Mason had put a ring on her finger and called her his wife? |
45045 | Had she not put off the marriage on one pretext and another? |
45045 | Had they taken all her sweetness? |
45045 | Had we not better all return to the drawing room?" |
45045 | Has your mother nothing?" |
45045 | Have I been a very foolish, love- stricken swain?" |
45045 | He looked very resolute, did n''t he? |
45045 | He was trying to find her hand; did it come out of the great muff quite as broad as her slim figure, all soft and warm, to be pressed to his lips? |
45045 | Housekeeping is a womanly grace or virtue or acquirement-- which do you call it?" |
45045 | How can I thank you?" |
45045 | How could he be content with this one brief sup of happiness? |
45045 | How could they be so cruel?" |
45045 | How fares it with her?" |
45045 | How many are there?" |
45045 | How many disconsolates did you leave at Williamsburg?" |
45045 | How many lovers have you had? |
45045 | How much ought she to admit? |
45045 | I do n''t believe father would mind-- would you?" |
45045 | I do n''t suppose anything would induce father to give up the estate here?" |
45045 | I do n''t suppose you ever will take us to London, papa?" |
45045 | I do n''t suppose you have heard from Marian?" |
45045 | I do wonder if there is any real danger?" |
45045 | I mean honest to-- to enjoy it all? |
45045 | I suppose Lieutenant Ralston was in the thick of the fight?" |
45045 | I suppose you know I met the Masons at the inauguration? |
45045 | I was n''t very daring-- Annis, was n''t I something of a babyish boy?" |
45045 | I wonder if I will have time to finish that flower in the morning?" |
45045 | I wonder who will come along for me? |
45045 | Is he likely to recover?" |
45045 | Is it Mr. Ralston? |
45045 | Is it a historical fact or a Shaksperean apothegm? |
45045 | Is n''t it a bit of patriotism to want to build up one''s own city? |
45045 | Is n''t that rather choice and fit and elegant? |
45045 | Is she like her mother?" |
45045 | Is there anything else? |
45045 | It kills people sometimes, does n''t it?" |
45045 | It seems ages ago, does n''t it? |
45045 | It would be very disagreeable to be bad friends?" |
45045 | It''s the most beautiful baby in the world, is n''t it?" |
45045 | Jack, was their meeting here pure accident? |
45045 | Jack,_ did_ you plan it?" |
45045 | Jaqueline, ca n''t we go to Washington some time and really see it? |
45045 | Jaqueline, have you ordered the horses?" |
45045 | Jaqueline, how do you do? |
45045 | Jaqueline, where did you find him?" |
45045 | Jaqueline, who is your letter from?" |
45045 | Jaqueline, you do n''t mean to marry Lieutenant Ralston yourself, after all? |
45045 | Jaqueline,"hesitatingly,"does anyone love you too much? |
45045 | Lieutenant Ralston, shall we ever have a Capital worthy of the nation?" |
45045 | Lieutenant Yardley is one of the country''s heroes, and you----"How should she put it? |
45045 | Look at that fire bird-- isn''t he gorgeous? |
45045 | Madison?" |
45045 | Marian, did you know that Mr. Ralston wrote again?" |
45045 | Marian, if it comes a second time you will not refuse?" |
45045 | Mistress Annis Mason, may I have the pleasure of escorting you to the grand naval ball? |
45045 | Now shall I go further back and tell you of all the downfalls I have had? |
45045 | Oh, Patty, do you remember our first visit here? |
45045 | Oh, did you see that exquisite lace Aunt Catharine sent her? |
45045 | Oh, do you truly think the country will go to ruin and split up into fragments?" |
45045 | Oh, papa, ca n''t something be done? |
45045 | Oh, you will make up friends?" |
45045 | Oh, you_ do_ believe that? |
45045 | Only what do you think? |
45045 | Only you were wrong about----""Ralston? |
45045 | Or did you have mischief in your mind?" |
45045 | Or was it her salvation that no rich lover came to hand? |
45045 | Or was it really fear? |
45045 | Our little wasp?" |
45045 | Perhaps we might go as a party-- would you mind?" |
45045 | Perhaps we seemed dull to you? |
45045 | Rene, do you not want to go along?" |
45045 | Roger?" |
45045 | Shall I commend this young lady to your care? |
45045 | Shall I give you my best, my most heartfelt wishes? |
45045 | Shall I run up to the house for anything?" |
45045 | She had a kind of shy way-- looking back and forth; do you remember it? |
45045 | She had thought a three- or four- days''separation very hard-- how would she stand weeks and months? |
45045 | She took his hand-- did she make a confession in the pressure? |
45045 | Since Washington was a heap of ruins and would have to be rebuilt, why not remove it to some more advantageous location? |
45045 | Suppose he had wanted to take part in a play with a girl she had not liked? |
45045 | Suppose we keep her for the next year or two?" |
45045 | Surely Patty or Jacky have not been scolding you? |
45045 | That is, when she is in her true home? |
45045 | The pearls and the rubies are bespoke, and she has a diamond cross that has been in the family-- how long?" |
45045 | The whip- poor- wills called to each other, the mocking bird flung out a note now and then as if he said saucily,"_ Did_ you think I was asleep?" |
45045 | There are a good many grand men in the world, are there not? |
45045 | There will be an election in the coming autumn, and how do you know but we may be plunged into war and need you for our own defense? |
45045 | There, is n''t that lovely?" |
45045 | Think of a man asking for-- what were they building the tower out of? |
45045 | Was it her desire? |
45045 | Was it not a dream? |
45045 | Was it not nearly the center? |
45045 | Was it prettier because it was on a ship? |
45045 | Was it true that a girl found pleasure in variety rather than constancy? |
45045 | Was it utter indifference? |
45045 | Was n''t it all grand? |
45045 | Was not that dutiful?" |
45045 | Was she anything but a volatile, teasing girl, with no deep feelings? |
45045 | Was she in any way relieved? |
45045 | Was she much homesick after her mother?" |
45045 | Was she staying with her sister? |
45045 | Was there any real danger? |
45045 | We were altogether in the right, were n''t we, Eliza?" |
45045 | Well-- and what did Cato say?" |
45045 | Well-- you will go, then?" |
45045 | Were most girls reluctant to marry? |
45045 | Were they all on her side? |
45045 | Were you very much frightened? |
45045 | What are you smiling at?" |
45045 | What can I do? |
45045 | What does Annis say to all this?" |
45045 | What has happened to you?" |
45045 | What if they should continue their work of devastation in this direction? |
45045 | What is that despondent song you sing so much? |
45045 | What is this invitation, pray?" |
45045 | What is youth for but a time to be merry and glad and to have good times? |
45045 | What shall I do?" |
45045 | What will you do when Jaqueline refuses some nice, suitable, prosperous young man and sets her heart on a spendthrift-- a ne''er- do- well?" |
45045 | What would you have done in your youth?" |
45045 | Whatever happens, you will always love me, Annis?" |
45045 | When I feel quite sure I love you----""Is there any such blessed moment?" |
45045 | When did you return? |
45045 | When is it to be?" |
45045 | Where have you been all this long time?" |
45045 | Where was her mother? |
45045 | Where''s father? |
45045 | Which is it, Jaqueline?" |
45045 | Who is this wonderful new poet? |
45045 | Who?" |
45045 | Why birds should borrow plumes-- I am shamefully ignorant, am I not?" |
45045 | Why ca n''t papa build on Virginia Avenue, and have a nice garden, and keep horses, and----"What else was there for him to do? |
45045 | Why could n''t he have given his daughter to the young fellow who loved her? |
45045 | Why did he not"ask Jaqueline to love him again"? |
45045 | Why do n''t they come to breakfast?" |
45045 | Why do you all look so queer? |
45045 | Why do you suppose Jacky did n''t marry Mr. Carrington? |
45045 | Why should he not put his fate to the touch, like a man, or dismiss her from his mind? |
45045 | Why should he want Annis? |
45045 | Why should n''t we be as proud as of old_ Mayflower_ tables and cups and cloaks that the New Englanders dote on?" |
45045 | Why, then, was she not ready to step into his life and make it glad with a supreme touch of happiness? |
45045 | Will it be out of order for you to dance, I wonder? |
45045 | Will that satisfy your lordship? |
45045 | Will you amuse yourself while I find him? |
45045 | Will you tell Mrs. Jettson the result of my letter? |
45045 | Wo n''t you make some of your relatives bring you over to Annapolis? |
45045 | Would a line from her bring him back? |
45045 | Would it be very unwomanly?" |
45045 | Would you have me turn haughty now?" |
45045 | Would you like to come upstairs with me?" |
45045 | Would you take her away?" |
45045 | You are mothering her? |
45045 | You can wish me success-- I hope?" |
45045 | You could n''t refuse altogether?" |
45045 | You do n''t know----"Did she really know Marian herself? |
45045 | You go to the Pineries quite often?" |
45045 | You knew my plans concerning my daughter Marian?" |
45045 | You think he will recover?" |
45045 | You were here on a visit-- when, Patricia?" |
45045 | You were of the Moore branch, I believe, kin to my son''s first wife?" |
45045 | You will like the pink, wo n''t you? |
45045 | You will not want to go away?" |
45045 | You wo n''t feel lonesome, little Annis?" |
45045 | You would n''t believe that I was once quite as slim as you?" |
45045 | Your mamma''s maiden name, perhaps?" |
45045 | cried Jane,"did you have a dreadful time when father was down here? |
45045 | she cried,"do you remember the young midshipman at the naval ball when there was such an excitement? |
45045 | what is this all about?" |
45045 | wondered Patty;"and what a farce congratulations would be? |
63223 | A Montague and Capulet affair? |
63223 | A draft? 63223 A written message?" |
63223 | About the Japanese Ambassador? |
63223 | About what? |
63223 | After you had discovered the loss of the plans? |
63223 | Ah, indeed; where is Mr. Winthrop now? |
63223 | Ah, then you do_ not_ think the negro coachman, Hamilton, guilty? |
63223 | Alone? |
63223 | And afterward? |
63223 | And afterwards? |
63223 | And do you think I am less so? |
63223 | And if I do n''t? |
63223 | And is that all you have to go upon for such an accusation? |
63223 | And that nation? |
63223 | And what did he say to that statement? |
63223 | And what did you and Annette, Miss Thornton''s French maid, discuss before you left here? |
63223 | And what does she look like? |
63223 | And what has the woman to say in the matter? |
63223 | And what was discovered? |
63223 | And where were you between the hours of nine- thirty and twelve? |
63223 | And you found her----? |
63223 | And you think? |
63223 | And your reasons? |
63223 | And your theory is? |
63223 | Anyone been to see me or telephoned, Jonas? |
63223 | Anything to drink around here? |
63223 | Are n''t you going to speak to_ me_? |
63223 | Are the detectives still hanging around the house? |
63223 | Are you feeling better, dear? |
63223 | Are you sure the room is unoccupied? |
63223 | At what hour did he go? |
63223 | At what hour did you reach his apartment? |
63223 | At what hour was that? |
63223 | Aye, what? |
63223 | Before or after the Spaniard had been here? |
63223 | But the motive? |
63223 | But what,pulling himself up,"what has that unfortunate girl''s death to do with me?" |
63223 | By the way, who is this Miss Thornton? |
63223 | By whose hand? |
63223 | Ca n''t give a poor blasted Englishman a point on the situation, I suppose? |
63223 | Ca n''t you administer it surreptitiously? |
63223 | Ca n''t you give her an opiate? |
63223 | Can I see the letters? |
63223 | Can I talk to your niece, Miss Cynthia Carew? |
63223 | Can not you imagine that for yourself? |
63223 | Can you dine with me, Douglas? |
63223 | Can you stay here all night? |
63223 | Captain Lane,wheeling around,"why have you returned to this house at so early an hour in the morning?" |
63223 | Come, Brett, what theory have you formed? |
63223 | Come, now, did n''t you break some rules when in Japan? |
63223 | Could anyone have slipped past you and Colonel Thornton when you stood waiting in the hallway for the gas to evaporate? |
63223 | Could you hear what was said? |
63223 | Dead? |
63223 | Did Annette commit suicide, or was she killed by human or supernatural agency? |
63223 | Did Captain Lane spend the evening with you and Colonel Thornton? |
63223 | Did Nicodemus inform you that the maid was here? |
63223 | Did Senator Carew call on you on Monday night? |
63223 | Did Senator Carew give you a letter to mail yesterday afternoon, or a note to deliver for him? |
63223 | Did anyone accompany you? |
63223 | Did anyone else know that he was there? |
63223 | Did anyone see you in the dining room last night? |
63223 | Did he find the carriage? |
63223 | Did he give you his name? |
63223 | Did he see your maid? |
63223 | Did he show you a letter which he was then writing? |
63223 | Did he state the nature of that business? |
63223 | Did he take luncheon here? |
63223 | Did he wish her to marry Philip Winthrop? |
63223 | Did n''t you ask his name? |
63223 | Did no one see him slip out of the door into the hall? |
63223 | Did she and Fred Lane patch up their quarrel? |
63223 | Did she ever insinuate that he had something to do with the murder of Senator Carew? |
63223 | Did she say nothing to you then about having moved down on your floor? |
63223 | Did she speak to Colonel Thornton or to Miss Eleanor before moving into the room? |
63223 | Did the Senator state what he wished to see me about? |
63223 | Did the bolt and lock work stiffly? |
63223 | Did the footman or butler notice anything in his hand when he left the house? |
63223 | Did the room have no other exit except the one door leading to the hall? |
63223 | Did this lover''s quarrel take place_ before_ Senator Carew''s death? |
63223 | Did you discover any evidence of a struggle or marks of violence about the woman''s person? |
63223 | Did you ever know anyone in Georgetown named Douglas Hunter? |
63223 | Did you find the windows of the room also bolted when you entered? |
63223 | Did you follow Senator Carew''s advice? |
63223 | Did you get any information from Annette yesterday? |
63223 | Did you know your maid was sleeping in the southwest chamber? |
63223 | Did you meet with any success, Mr. Hunter, in the inquiries you said you would make this afternoon? |
63223 | Did you not see them arrive? |
63223 | Did you see Miss Thornton again? |
63223 | Did you see Senator Carew after that? |
63223 | Did you see Senator Carew before his death? |
63223 | Did you see Senator Carew leave the house yesterday afternoon? |
63223 | Did you see Senator Carew? |
63223 | Did you see all three of them? |
63223 | Did you see anyone leave this room, Joshua? |
63223 | Did you see him alone, or were others present? |
63223 | Did you see the envelope? |
63223 | Did you think to examine the landau? 63223 Did you?" |
63223 | Did-- did she have beefsteak and fried onions this morning? |
63223 | Do n''t you think, Mr. Secretary, that there is danger of being too secretive, and that the guilty party may slip through our fingers? |
63223 | Do you believe his statements? |
63223 | Do you believe it? |
63223 | Do you honestly mean that you think Lane deliberately put the girl he loved into the carriage to sit beside the man he had just murdered? |
63223 | Do you know how long Senator Carew and young Winthrop remained in this room? |
63223 | Do you know if she had lost money? |
63223 | Do you know on what grounds they arrested Fred Lane for the murder of Senator Carew? |
63223 | Do you know the time? |
63223 | Do you mean to say that you did not investigate further? |
63223 | Do you really think that supernatural means caused her death? |
63223 | Do you refer to the Diplomatic Corps? |
63223 | Do you still cling to the theory that she met her death because some one was afraid of what she would tell you to- day? |
63223 | Do you think I''m going to sit here and listen to aspersions on my niece''s character? |
63223 | Do you think a penny would bring me any comfort? |
63223 | Do you think he was an American? |
63223 | Do you think him guilty? |
63223 | Do you use portières? |
63223 | Do you wish to kill off the Corps bodily? 63223 Does she want me for anything in particular?" |
63223 | Does the Senator really think to marry? |
63223 | Douglas Hunter? 63223 Five thousand dollars;"then, noting Thornton''s expression, asked:"You think it too much?" |
63223 | For what reason? |
63223 | Formed any new theory? |
63223 | Fred Lane, of the Engineer Corps? |
63223 | Got any, Nicodemus? |
63223 | Happiness? |
63223 | Has Captain Lane been here yet? |
63223 | Has Cynthia been told of Annette''s death? |
63223 | Has Hamilton a lawyer to look out for his interests? |
63223 | Has Mrs. Winthrop consented to Miss Carew''s spending to- morrow at your house? |
63223 | Has it occurred to you that Senator Carew''s missing letter, which Brett is so anxious to find, may have been addressed to you? |
63223 | Has she been despondent of late? |
63223 | Has she been with you long? |
63223 | Has such a letter been found by Brett? |
63223 | Has your maid had an unfortunate love affair? |
63223 | Have a sandwich? |
63223 | Have you any brandy? |
63223 | Have you any idea where Senator Carew dined and spent the evening? |
63223 | Have you any idea where Senator Carew dined the night of his death? |
63223 | Have you any idea, Joshua, what caused the quarrel yesterday afternoon? |
63223 | Have you everything you wish, Mademoiselle Eleanor? |
63223 | Have you had a pleasant time this afternoon, Kate? |
63223 | Have you had your lunch, Wyndham? |
63223 | Have you heard the shocking news of Senator Carew''s--she hesitated for a moment--"tragic death?" |
63223 | Have you inquired at the different messenger services in town? |
63223 | Have you met with any success? |
63223 | Have you searched Carew''s belongings? |
63223 | Have you seen Miss Eleanor? |
63223 | Have you such a desk set, Eleanor? |
63223 | He was n''t? |
63223 | Heard the news? |
63223 | Heart action? |
63223 | How comes it, then, that you allowed gas pipes to be placed in the room? |
63223 | How did Senator Carew get into that carriage? |
63223 | How did the Senator know where a note would reach you? |
63223 | How did you come to put the maid in that room? |
63223 | How did you discover Senator Carew was dead, Miss Thornton? |
63223 | How did you get here? |
63223 | How did you know I had been to see you, Chisholm? |
63223 | How did you know it? |
63223 | How did you leave Cynthia? |
63223 | How do you know he is n''t hiding somewhere? |
63223 | How do you know it was Miss Thornton? |
63223 | How have you been since I saw you last, Miss Thornton? |
63223 | How is Cynthia? |
63223 | How late did you stay there? |
63223 | How long do you think she had been dead before you reached her? |
63223 | How long have you been with Senator Carew, Joshua? |
63223 | How long was he with Miss Carew? |
63223 | How long were your wife and her friends in this office? |
63223 | How much do you wish made public? |
63223 | How much? |
63223 | How so? |
63223 | How so? |
63223 | How the devil can I get it open? 63223 How, then, did he get his own carriage?" |
63223 | How-- what killed her? |
63223 | How? |
63223 | How? |
63223 | How? |
63223 | I called to see Mr. Brett; is he here? |
63223 | I do n''t catch your meaning? |
63223 | I had the dream Sunday night,sobbed Cynthia,"then Monday, when I thought we could announce our engagement----""Whose engagement?" |
63223 | I hope you can give me a few minutes of your time,said Brett;"will you be so good as to step into the library?" |
63223 | I must first tell you that my mother was Nora Fitzgerald----"The famous actress? |
63223 | If he could n''t get a cab, why did he not call up his own house and send for his carriage earlier in the evening? |
63223 | Impossible? 63223 In searching the room did you discover any secret passages leading to it?" |
63223 | In what way does Mrs. Winthrop need my services? |
63223 | In what way? |
63223 | In your opinion would a person locking the door and shooting the bolt into place make enough noise to awaken the sleeper? |
63223 | Indeed? 63223 Indeed? |
63223 | Indeed? |
63223 | Indeed? |
63223 | Inquest? |
63223 | Is Hamilton still in jail? |
63223 | Is Mr. Winthrop a heavy drinker? |
63223 | Is Soto a Jap? |
63223 | Is any house being built in this neighborhood? |
63223 | Is he an old family servant? |
63223 | Is it all over? |
63223 | Is it not pitiful? |
63223 | Is n''t it? |
63223 | Is she a good servant? |
63223 | Is she better? |
63223 | Is that all? |
63223 | Is that enough to convict? |
63223 | Is that so? |
63223 | Is that why Senator Carew objected to her engagement to Captain Lane? |
63223 | Is that your only reason for believing the negro innocent? |
63223 | Is the letter file missing? |
63223 | Is there a branch telephone in the house? |
63223 | Is there any way of entering the room by a window? |
63223 | Is there anything I can do for you? |
63223 | Is there anything which strikes you as being of vital importance in the case which has not yet been brought out? |
63223 | Is there such a thing as a long scaling ladder on the premises? |
63223 | It is_ you_, Philip? |
63223 | It were dis- away, suh; jes''befo''dinnah she cum ter me an''Sophy an''say she doan like de room in de third flo''----"Why not? |
63223 | Joshua, is this Miss Thornton''s maid? |
63223 | Mademoiselle is more comfortable,_ n''est- ce pas?_she asked briskly. |
63223 | May I ask why you take such an interest in this case? |
63223 | May I ask you why you thought such precautions necessary? |
63223 | May we see the new charts of the Pacific? |
63223 | Miss Eleanor, why does she refuse to see me? |
63223 | Miss Thornton, is she in? |
63223 | Miss Thornton,--the Secretary bent forward impressively,--"were you engaged to Senator Carew?" |
63223 | Miss Thornton,facing her directly,"have you formed any theory as to how your maid came to be asphyxiated?" |
63223 | Mr. Winthrop,asked Douglas, breaking the short silence,"were you and your uncle always on good terms?" |
63223 | Mrs. Winthrop,the detective spoke with greater distinctness,"was Senator Carew on good terms with all the members of his family?" |
63223 | My thoughts? 63223 Nicodemus, is that you?" |
63223 | No; why should he? 63223 No? |
63223 | Now, Mr. Brett, what do you wish to ask me? |
63223 | Now, what the devil do you mean? |
63223 | Of course I received it-- why otherwise should I be here? |
63223 | Of which crime? |
63223 | Oh, is he the tall, fine- looking man I saw talking to Joshua in the hall yesterday morning? |
63223 | Oh, why did n''t you come to me? |
63223 | Oh, why did you stop? |
63223 | One thousand dollars, did you say,_ Monsieur_? 63223 Reward?" |
63223 | Shall I retire? |
63223 | So Mrs. Winthrop took the word of a worthless servant, the better to humiliate me...."Had Annette any grounds for her accusation? |
63223 | So you believe the people of Panama are already dissatisfied with their president? |
63223 | So you brought Annette with you? |
63223 | Solid? |
63223 | Tell me what leads you to think that? |
63223 | Tell me, dearest, how did you happen to select a ruby? |
63223 | That was the Japanese Ambassador, was it not? |
63223 | That''s very good of you, sir,Douglas hesitated,"but do n''t you think I might be in the way in a family party?" |
63223 | The room is very dark, wo n''t you light another burner, Douglas? |
63223 | Then how did she come to be occupying the other room? |
63223 | Then suppose we make it Monday night at the Metropolitan Club? |
63223 | Then where did you spend it? |
63223 | Then who is that? |
63223 | Then why was a drop light fastened to the wall bracket by the side of the bed? |
63223 | Then would you mind asking Captain Lane to come down, Miss Thornton? 63223 Then you deny running out after his carriage, which Mr. Winthrop declares you did?" |
63223 | Then you think it likely that he dined with some of his official colleagues? |
63223 | Then you think the time is ripe for carrying out your scheme? |
63223 | Then you were not expecting her? |
63223 | Then you will take the case? |
63223 | Then your niece is thoroughly acquainted with this building? |
63223 | Then, how was it that he was driving the carriage last night? |
63223 | Then_ no_ one knew she was occupying that room except you and Sophy? |
63223 | They? 63223 To do_ what_?" |
63223 | To whom did you make such a promise? |
63223 | To whom do you think that letter was written? |
63223 | To- morrow-- will you go with me to- morrow? |
63223 | Uncle James, are you trying to play a practical joke? |
63223 | Unoccupied? |
63223 | Was Annette in the house? |
63223 | Was Senator Carew irritable and quick- tempered? |
63223 | Was he well dressed? |
63223 | Was it very dreadful at the cemetery? |
63223 | Was it your brother''s custom not to inform you where he was dining? |
63223 | Was n''t that rather an unusual hour for him to stay? |
63223 | Was that the first time that Senator Carew and Mr. Winthrop have quarreled? |
63223 | Was the door locked on the_ inside_? |
63223 | Was there anything unusual in Senator Carew''s manner? |
63223 | Was there-- was there-- an autopsy? |
63223 | Was this drawer locked when your strange visitor was admitted? |
63223 | Well, my dear, may I come in? |
63223 | Well, what about him? |
63223 | Well, what then? |
63223 | Well, what then? |
63223 | Were they stolen from this office? |
63223 | What about the threatening letters to Senator Carew which Mrs. Winthrop thought I sent? |
63223 | What are they? |
63223 | What became of him? |
63223 | What brought back your memory? |
63223 | What callers did you see besides the Spaniard? |
63223 | What caused Miss Carew''s indisposition? |
63223 | What did I tell you? |
63223 | What did he look like? |
63223 | What did he want with you? |
63223 | What did my niece do, besides standing still and looking up and down the street? |
63223 | What did the file look like? |
63223 | What did you do next? |
63223 | What did you do then? |
63223 | What did you mean,he asked,"by saying this afternoon that Senator Carew told you he could help you to bring your quest to a successful conclusion?" |
63223 | What do you make out of it? |
63223 | What do you mean? |
63223 | What do you mean? |
63223 | What do you think caused her death? |
63223 | What do you think of it? |
63223 | What does the doctor mean by letting you come out? |
63223 | What happened? |
63223 | What have the Americans on their conscience that they can not sleep in the morning? |
63223 | What is all this I am told about the southwest chamber being haunted? |
63223 | What is it you wish to know? |
63223 | What is the matter with him? |
63223 | What is the meaning of this? |
63223 | What is your dream? |
63223 | What is----? |
63223 | What luck did you have with Mrs. Winthrop, Uncle Dana? |
63223 | What luck did you meet with? |
63223 | What makes you think that? |
63223 | What members of the family were in the house yesterday afternoon? |
63223 | What news to- day, Annette? |
63223 | What news? |
63223 | What on earth was her object in making such a statement? |
63223 | What shall I do? |
63223 | What sort of a fellow is Lane? |
63223 | What was Captain Lane doing here last night? |
63223 | What was it about the door that caused her to scream? |
63223 | What was its contents? |
63223 | What was the exact trouble between Senator Carew and Governor Lane, Cousin Kate? |
63223 | What was your object in going there? |
63223 | What were they? |
63223 | What were you saying, Cousin Kate? |
63223 | What''s all this questioning about? |
63223 | What''s that in your hand? |
63223 | What''s that? |
63223 | What''s your plan, Uncle Dana? |
63223 | What, a bribe? |
63223 | What, in this weather, Kate? |
63223 | What-- you do n''t mean----? |
63223 | What? |
63223 | What? |
63223 | When did Miss Thornton enter the house? |
63223 | When did that happen? |
63223 | When did this conversation take place? |
63223 | When did this happen? |
63223 | When did you arrive in Washington? |
63223 | When did you discover the plans of the battleships were missing? |
63223 | When did you last see your maid? |
63223 | When did you leave this house? |
63223 | When may I call on you? |
63223 | Where are you stopping? |
63223 | Where did Carew spend the evening? |
63223 | Where did he get the weapon? |
63223 | Where did you last see Senator Carew? |
63223 | Where do you keep this desk set? |
63223 | Where do you wish to go, Miss Thornton? |
63223 | Where has she gone? |
63223 | Where in the world did you see him? |
63223 | Where in thunder are the matches? |
63223 | Where is Aunt Charlotte? |
63223 | Where is Miss Eleanor? |
63223 | Where is Philip? |
63223 | Where is the Senator this evening? |
63223 | Where is your room? |
63223 | Where shall we go, Uncle Dana? |
63223 | Where''s Eleanor? |
63223 | Who gave her that information? |
63223 | Who has been in the hall besides yourself? |
63223 | Who has rooms on the next floor? |
63223 | Who opened the door into the library a few moments ago? |
63223 | Who was it? |
63223 | Who would commit such a deed? 63223 Who-- who are you, and where in hell did you come from?" |
63223 | Who-- who-- is it? |
63223 | Whom do you wish to see? |
63223 | Whom-- whom-- do they suspect? |
63223 | Why did you avoid me in Paris? |
63223 | Why did you leave Paris without saying good- bye to me? |
63223 | Why did you not come forward with this information then? |
63223 | Why did you not go at once to see Senator Carew when you arrived in Washington? |
63223 | Why did you not send me this information before? |
63223 | Why did you wish him to keep his visit here a secret, Miss Thornton? |
63223 | Why do n''t you investigate her past, Brett? 63223 Why do you take an interest in a man with blue eyes and black hair?" |
63223 | Why have n''t you been to see me, Douglas? |
63223 | Why not? |
63223 | Why so? 63223 Why this sudden interest in my great- great- grandfather?" |
63223 | Why, certainly,exclaimed Winthrop, with well simulated heartiness;"wo n''t you both sit down?" |
63223 | Why, what do you mean? |
63223 | Why, why did she do it? |
63223 | Why? |
63223 | Why? |
63223 | Why? |
63223 | Will you both be seated? |
63223 | Will you have an ice or sandwich? |
63223 | Will you join me? |
63223 | Will you please explain to me,broke in Fred Lane,"why Mrs. Winthrop swore out a warrant for my arrest? |
63223 | With what results? |
63223 | Would you have gone with me? |
63223 | Would you mind stating what this quest is? |
63223 | You are absolutely certain, Wyndham, that you have n''t been out of this office except on that one occasion? |
63223 | You believe, then, that Senator Carew was murdered by his servant? |
63223 | You called to see Secretary Wyndham at the Navy Department on Wednesday morning, did you not, Miss Thornton? |
63223 | You do n''t think the draft blew out the gas? |
63223 | You mean----? |
63223 | You never took the trouble to make inquiries about me? |
63223 | You recollect how it rained last night? |
63223 | You think then that I am an acquired taste? |
63223 | You were the first to enter the southwest chamber, were you not? |
63223 | You wish to see me? |
63223 | Zo? |
63223 | _ Que hay?_inquired the Colombian of the proprietor. |
63223 | A discreet tap sounded on the library door, and a muffled voice asked:"''Scuse me, but am Miss Eleanor in dar?" |
63223 | And you?" |
63223 | At what hour?" |
63223 | Brett did not press the point, but asked instead:"Where did you spend last night?" |
63223 | Brett?" |
63223 | Brett?" |
63223 | Brett?" |
63223 | But how do you expect to alter his attitude?" |
63223 | But how the devil did he accomplish it?" |
63223 | But suppose he was drunk? |
63223 | But the motive, man?" |
63223 | By the way, is she any relation of yours?" |
63223 | By the way, why did n''t you come to the telephone last night? |
63223 | CHAPTER XVII THE MYSTERY DEEPENS"Where''s Brett?" |
63223 | CHAPTER XVIII IN THE NAME OF THE LAW"Well, and what then?" |
63223 | Can you arrange it for me?" |
63223 | Can you arrange such a meeting?" |
63223 | Can you come to us for a few days? |
63223 | Can you help me meet her?" |
63223 | Cynthia, Cynthia, had you so little faith?" |
63223 | Dare he penetrate the mystery, or was he afraid to face the issue? |
63223 | Did you get my note this morning?" |
63223 | Did you watch the Senator leave the house?" |
63223 | Do you know him?" |
63223 | Do you remember the man''s name?" |
63223 | Do you think otherwise?" |
63223 | Does the dining room communicate with the drawing- room?" |
63223 | Douglas, do you really think he was guilty?" |
63223 | Douglas, do you recollect asking me about a man who you thought you saw with me in the elevator at the Navy Department on Wednesday?" |
63223 | Had Mammon spoiled the old simplicity, and had Washington become but a suburb of New York and Chicago? |
63223 | Had his faith been misplaced? |
63223 | Have the ladies come yet?" |
63223 | Have you a message for me?" |
63223 | Have you any idea of the transports''destination?" |
63223 | Have you any idea when the Senator left the house?" |
63223 | How did you suppose?" |
63223 | How long have the papers been in your possession, Wyndham?" |
63223 | How much shall it be?" |
63223 | How was it possible to have an accident under those circumstances?" |
63223 | How would she greet him? |
63223 | How''s Sophy?" |
63223 | Hunter?" |
63223 | Hunter?" |
63223 | Hunter?" |
63223 | Hunter?" |
63223 | Hunter?" |
63223 | I was taken completely by surprise by the man''s statement and asked:''What day did you expect to meet Senator Carew here?'' |
63223 | If so, how came he there? |
63223 | If so, what, then, became of his own theory of an international intrigue? |
63223 | Is Mrs. Truxton waiting to see me?" |
63223 | Is n''t that Colonel Thornton beckoning to us over there?" |
63223 | Is that gratitude?" |
63223 | Mr. Hunter, are you coming down town?" |
63223 | Must I eat that egg?" |
63223 | Must you both be going?" |
63223 | Not noticing his companion''s silence, the Englishman added,"Is she still hunting around looking up old files and records?" |
63223 | Not the Douglas Hunter of the Diplomatic Corps, whom Uncle James was forever talking about?" |
63223 | Or was it the sight of Eleanor Thornton, looking radiantly beautiful, which set his heart throbbing in a most unusual manner? |
63223 | Owen?" |
63223 | Secretary?" |
63223 | Shall we walk over and join him?" |
63223 | She surprised a look in Douglas''face-- why did he appear as if caught? |
63223 | Suppose the man was a stranger? |
63223 | Tell me, are there any new developments in the Carew case?" |
63223 | Tell me, what information did Mrs. Winthrop supply which induced you to arrest Captain Lane?" |
63223 | Their married life was unusually happy; therefore it was all the more incredible and tragic when one day he disappeared----""Disappeared?" |
63223 | Then in a louder tone,"Well, Uncle Dana, how are you?" |
63223 | Then perhaps you only saw the maid, Annette, when she was_ asleep_?" |
63223 | Therefore, why not enjoy the goods the gods provided and be thankful? |
63223 | Want ter go to yo''room, suh?" |
63223 | Was Douglas taking sides against her? |
63223 | Was his attack also caused by the shock of Uncle James''death?" |
63223 | Was it murder or suicide?" |
63223 | Was it possible that she could mean_ the_ Eleanor Thornton he used to know? |
63223 | Was there to be no awakening? |
63223 | Well, James, what is it?" |
63223 | Well, Jones?" |
63223 | Were you aware that Annette intended to sleep in the southwest chamber?" |
63223 | Whar yo''at?" |
63223 | What did I tell you?" |
63223 | What did the Ambassador''s abrupt departure portend? |
63223 | What did you want to say to me on the telephone, Dana?" |
63223 | What earthly business is it of his?" |
63223 | What good will Cynthia''s staying in that gloomy house do poor Carew? |
63223 | What is he doing here now?" |
63223 | What is it?" |
63223 | What is the old gentleman''s name?" |
63223 | What led her to believe me guilty?" |
63223 | What was Captain Lane doing here?" |
63223 | What was it that he had promised? |
63223 | Where did you get such an idea?" |
63223 | Where had she seen those eyes before? |
63223 | Where on earth could it come from? |
63223 | Who is the girl?" |
63223 | Who quarreled? |
63223 | Who swore out that warrant?" |
63223 | Who?" |
63223 | Who?" |
63223 | Why are you giving me such weak tea, Eleanor? |
63223 | Why are you packing, Annette?" |
63223 | Why do you ask about Douglas?" |
63223 | Why do you shun your friends?" |
63223 | Why had his memory played him so scurvy a trick? |
63223 | Why had she intervened? |
63223 | Why have you waited all this time before mentioning that you think Miss Thornton guilty of Senator Carew''s murder?" |
63223 | Why was he an outcast? |
63223 | Will you be so kind as to ask your cousin, Mrs. Truxton, to step here for a few minutes?" |
63223 | Will you please inform me what made that poor girl faint in the drawing- room?" |
63223 | Winthrop nodded sullenly, then began:"You recollect that I spent Monday night at the Alibi Club, Brett?" |
63223 | Winthrop?" |
63223 | Winthrop?" |
63223 | Winthrop?" |
63223 | Wo n''t you come and see the rose garden with me? |
63223 | You do n''t mean----?" |
63223 | You have been going out a great deal this winter, have you not?" |
63223 | You were the first to examine the dead woman upstairs; what do you think caused her death?" |
63223 | he asked,"besides the one in the library? |
63223 | in growing astonishment,"_ Annette_ told you I was indisposed and could not be disturbed?" |
63223 | what on earth was she doing in the library at that hour?" |
63223 | why did you take that sharp letter file with you?" |
9812 | A blind? |
9812 | A blind? |
9812 | About Sheerness? |
9812 | Ah, a mobilization? |
9812 | Ah, indeed? 9812 Ah, indeed?" |
9812 | Ah, so that is why you take an interest in his invention? |
9812 | Ah, then she was fond of Miss Kathleen? |
9812 | Ah, then she was in the habit of coming? |
9812 | Also visitors are forbidden at the Government Radio Station at Arlington? |
9812 | Am I to find him by the process of elimination? |
9812 | And I have come tonight to confide in you...."Have you? |
9812 | And afterward did you find any trace of papers''having been stolen? 9812 And does not the result justify not only your confidence but promotion?" |
9812 | And how is that to be accomplished if you have not the young lady''s consent? |
9812 | And how is the excellent Mr. Spencer this morning? |
9812 | And is the Secret Service not investigating the matter? |
9812 | And mothers? 9812 And that is--?" |
9812 | And that is--? |
9812 | And that visitors are not encouraged to loiter on government reservations? |
9812 | And von Mueller was in the house that night-- do you deny it? |
9812 | And what about Heinrich? |
9812 | And what did you find? |
9812 | And what is that? |
9812 | And what was Miss Grey doing in the attic at that hour of the morning? |
9812 | And what was Mr. Spencer doing the last time you saw him? |
9812 | And where was that? |
9812 | And where would you suggest that we hunt for this guilty party? |
9812 | And which servant imparted that information to you? |
9812 | And why did he confide in you? |
9812 | And why not? |
9812 | And you have his consent to the match? |
9812 | And you have resided in Washington since then? |
9812 | Any further news tonight, Heinrich? |
9812 | Any mail for me in the noon delivery? |
9812 | Any news of the Atlantic fleet, Heinrich? |
9812 | Any orders? |
9812 | Any particular time scheduled for the event? |
9812 | Are these the clothes he had on at the time of his death? |
9812 | Are you dead to all sense of decency? |
9812 | Are you dining out tonight? |
9812 | Are you ever joined while in your studio by your wife and daughter and their friends? |
9812 | Are you familiar with his latest invention? |
9812 | Are you prepared to take it up? |
9812 | Are you pro- German, Kiametia? |
9812 | Are you prudent to tax your strength after all you were subjected to yesterday? |
9812 | Are you willing to let me curtail your note with a payment of five thousand dollars? |
9812 | As for instance--? |
9812 | Asleep? |
9812 | At what height were they taken? |
9812 | At what hour did death occur? |
9812 | At what hour did the members of your club depart? |
9812 | Been a steward, have n''t you? |
9812 | But he has invented something that we need more...."What is that? |
9812 | But how would you suggest going about to catch the thief? |
9812 | But my woman''s intuition tells me..."Yes? |
9812 | But surely he has had the camera tested thoroughly? |
9812 | But why not come openly, Julie? 9812 But why?" |
9812 | But will she not read the papers? |
9812 | But you would not call him an intimate friend? |
9812 | By means of the knife? |
9812 | Ca n''t a good- looking man come to Washington without being swamped with invitations? |
9812 | Ca n''t he wait until tomorrow? 9812 Ca n''t we get our wounded to the base hospital, Major?" |
9812 | Can I get you a seat, sir? |
9812 | Can I leave you anywhere, Captain-- Miller? |
9812 | Can I see Miss Whitney? |
9812 | Can you let me have a hundred dollars? |
9812 | Can you not see that your presence is an offense? |
9812 | Can you spare me a moment, Winslow? 9812 Can you tell me if Mr. Spencer was wearing his pajamas in bed?" |
9812 | Can you tell us who did, Miss Whitney? |
9812 | Captain Karl von Mueller,she said cuttingly,"to use the name by which I knew you abroad, do you wish my father''s invention for Germany?" |
9812 | Change your mind and have some Scotch? |
9812 | Could you go and see if he is with her, Miss Grey? |
9812 | Could you tell from what floor the elevator came when you pushed your floor button? |
9812 | Dad,Kathleen lowered her voice and moved closer to him,"has it occurred to you that-- that people are unduly curious about your invention?" |
9812 | Did Foster happen to tell you that Sinclair Spencer had in his will made him executor of his estate? |
9812 | Did I? |
9812 | Did Julie, your wife''s maid, ever evince undue curiosity in your work? |
9812 | Did Kathleen see him on Wednesday? |
9812 | Did Kathleen''s unnatural mother deliberately have that syringe marked with her daughter''s initials? |
9812 | Did Mr. Spencer communicate with you Tuesday by letter or telephone? |
9812 | Did Mr. Spencer give you any inkling Tuesday night that he intended to be an early riser on Wednesday morning? |
9812 | Did Mr. Spencer make any attempt to persuade you to reconsider your refusal? |
9812 | Did he agree to it? |
9812 | Did he ever show deep interest in it? |
9812 | Did he? |
9812 | Did n''t you tell me that someone was ill and required medical assistance? 9812 Did not your husband tell you of Mr. Spencer''s presence?" |
9812 | Did she appear as usual? |
9812 | Did she attend the meeting of your club? |
9812 | Did she ever meet Mr. Spencer away from the house? |
9812 | Did she say nothing to you and Minna when you were with her before the doctor arrived? |
9812 | Did she seem discontented with her situation?'' |
9812 | Did she tell you so? |
9812 | Did the Germans accept your identity without question? |
9812 | Did the bullet fit it? |
9812 | Did you consider her case dangerous? |

9812 | Did you then make Mr. Sinclair Spencer''s acquaintance? |
9812 | Did you use the elevator then? |
9812 | Did you wish to see Miss Kathleen, sir? |
9812 | Do you call half- past six o''clock soon? |
9812 | Do you hold your inventions dearer than your daughter''s future happiness, which you are willing to intrust to my care? |
9812 | Do you mean-- Spencer was murdered? |
9812 | Do you never crave for that happiness, Kiametia? |
9812 | Do you not realize the depth of my love? 9812 Do you not yet realize, Minna, that this is my life work?" |
9812 | Do you recognize this knife? |
9812 | Do you still wish me to keep up this particular work? |
9812 | Do you suppose the Whitneys are here? |
9812 | Do you think I will trust you with the drawings and models of my latest inventions? |
9812 | Do you think the coroner''s jury influenced my judgment, sweetheart? 9812 Do you think the unsupported statement of a woman suspected of murder will find credence?" |
9812 | Does she? |
9812 | Does the kettle call the pot black? 9812 Eggs all right, sir?" |
9812 | Eh? |
9812 | Engaged? 9812 Fell?" |
9812 | Finished your search? |
9812 | Finished? |
9812 | Fleeting fancy? |
9812 | Followed me? |
9812 | For how many years have you known Sinclair Spencer? |

9812 | Having a good time, dearie? |
9812 | He was familiar with your house, then? |
9812 | Heinrich,turning to the chauffeur, who stood respectfully waiting,"did you learn the strength of the fleet?" |
9812 | Honest Injun, Dad? |
9812 | How am I to get in touch with the private shipyards and munition plants? |
9812 | How are you going to prove it? 9812 How are you?" |
9812 | How can I express my gratitude? |
9812 | How did Kathleen come to enter the elevator without seeing its occupant? |

9812 | How do you know it is n''t completed and patent applied for? |

9812 | How many of you are employed here? |
9812 | How was she? |
9812 | How, for instance? |
9812 | How? |
9812 | I asked, sir, because, sir, today the Cabinet officers lunch here, and...."They require your undivided attention? |
9812 | I have already met the young girl sitting next him,he said,"and who is her dinner partner?" |
9812 | I have n''t seen you before; where''s Jenkins? |
9812 | I rather like him; he''s very agreeable, good- looking, and seems to have plenty of money...."Then you...."Favor his suit? 9812 I should almost imagine--""That I am engaged to her?" |
9812 | I understood you were not married? |
9812 | If he was not one of us, how came he to be killed? |
9812 | If you doubt, why not ask Kathleen how and when she came to be in the elevator with Spencer''s dead body? |
9812 | If you plan to do that, may I get your chauffeur to take me home? |
9812 | In what condition did you find her? |
9812 | In what way was it different? |
9812 | In what way? |
9812 | Indeed? |
9812 | Indeed? |
9812 | Instead, you and the police should make every effort to find Julie and protect her..."From what? |
9812 | Is Heinrich here? |
9812 | Is Mademoiselle here? |
9812 | Is Mr. Whitney in his studio? |
9812 | Is a man to be convicted of crime because it is physically possible for him to commit murder? |

9812 | Is it not good news? |
9812 | Is it not used for modeling in clay? |
9812 | Is it really true that Sinclair Spencer left Kathleen a small fortune? |
9812 | Is it that I speak for all? |
9812 | Is it true that arc lights have been installed at the United States navy yards and arsenals, which make them as light as day on the darkest night? |
9812 | Is n''t that according to Hoyle? |
9812 | Is that all? |
9812 | Is that another name for Captain Miller? |
9812 | Is that so? |
9812 | Is that so? |
9812 | Is the purchaser to be the same for whom you are collecting horses and ammunition? |
9812 | Is this a sà © ance? |

9812 | Is this an indignation meeting or an assemblage of Sisters in Unity? |
9812 | Is this your first visit to Washington, Captain? |
9812 | Is your daughter''s welfare of secondary importance? |
9812 | It is some years...."Years? 9812 Julie, are you quite mad?" |
9812 | Julie, you met with no harm? |
9812 | Julie? |
9812 | Kathleen might reconsider-- eh? |
9812 | Kathleen, are you mad? |
9812 | Kathleen, can you ever forgive me? |
9812 | Kathleen, did your father ever speak to you of a note for twenty thousand dollars? |
9812 | Kathleen-- is she ill? |
9812 | Kiametia, what do you mean to insinuate? 9812 Luncheon?" |
9812 | Mademoiselle? |
9812 | May I ask what that reason is? |
9812 | May I have a word with you, sir? |
9812 | Me, monsieur? |
9812 | Miller? 9812 Miller? |
9812 | Miller? 9812 Miss Whitney, did you not attempt to rub off with your handkerchief from Spencer''s blood- stained shirt, Captain von Mueller''s finger print?" |
9812 | Monsieur, can you explain this telegram? |
9812 | More visitors? 9812 Motives are not always on the surface; I advise you to investigate...""Yes--?" |
9812 | Must you go out, Dad? |
9812 | My car at the door? |
9812 | My dear Baron, what can you expect? |
9812 | My dear, why, why did you try to whitewash Julie? |
9812 | Naturalized, or born in this country? |
9812 | No? |
9812 | Of what branch of the service? |
9812 | Only-- only why did you lay such stress on the''man child''? 9812 Or shall I translate my request into German?" |
9812 | Pardon, is not my information always reliable? |
9812 | Quite certain, Vincent? |
9812 | Quite sure you ca n''t find out about Miller? |
9812 | Quite sure, Miss Gray? |
9812 | Really? |
9812 | Room for me on the back seat? |
9812 | SHOULD AULD ACQUAINTANCE BE FORGOT? |
9812 | Senator Foster is splendid-- and I had hoped--_why_ do you discourage his attentions? |
9812 | Shall I go to the studio? |
9812 | Shall I tell Kathleen? |
9812 | She has undergone a great shock, finding a friend dead in an elevator...."Ah, did she? |
9812 | Sinclair Spencer? |
9812 | So you think I murdered Spencer? |
9812 | So you think Julie''s testimony will implicate Miss Whitney still further in the crime? |
9812 | Speaking of engagements,Whitney turned to the spinster,"what about you and Randall Foster, Kiametia?" |
9812 | Suppose other officers follow his example, what will the army do in case of hostilities with-- eh-- Mexico? |
9812 | Surely the bank will hold over the matter until Dad is in a condition to attend to his affairs? |
9812 | Tell me frankly, Kathleen, did you accept me on Tuesday only because you thought me Karl? |
9812 | Tell me, Julie, what has aroused your suspicion? |
9812 | Tell me, Kathleen,broke in Miss Kiametia,"how did it happen that Sinclair Spencer had a flower from your bouquet in his hand?" |
9812 | Tell me, Mitchell, what motive do you attribute to Miss Whitney for the killing of Sinclair Spencer? |
9812 | Tell me, Mrs. Whitney, was Sinclair Spencer visiting you for any length of time? |
9812 | Tell me, how have you succeeded with the passports? |
9812 | Tell me,Kathleen lowered her voice,"when will the Grand Jury meet?" |
9812 | The best of England has volunteered,agreed Sir Percival,"but what about the slackers? |
9812 | The coroner? |
9812 | The evidence is conclusive, is it not? |
9812 | Then did you go direct to bed? |
9812 | Then father''s inventions are quite safe? |
9812 | Then how could you see Mr. Spencer so clearly? |
9812 | Then how was the drug administered? |
9812 | Then if the knife wound was not fatal, and there was no indication of intoxication, what caused Mr. Spencer''s death? |
9812 | Then possibly you left the light burning by the bureau? |
9812 | Then why postpone your wooing? |
9812 | Then why--Kathleen sprang to her feet--"why were you masquerading as Karl von Mueller when I knew you in Germany?" |
9812 | Then you were brought up together? |
9812 | Then, will you give me their wages..."Wages? |
9812 | To see you day after day-- Will nothing I say convince or move you? 9812 Unassisted?" |
9812 | Under the same conditions? |
9812 | Vincent said something about Captain Miller having called-- is the Captain here? |
9812 | Waiting? 9812 Was Julie a well trained servant?" |
9812 | Was Julie discontented with her place? |
9812 | Was Julie on good terms with the other servants? |

9812 | Was he rough, boisterous? |
9812 | Was it her habit to get up before you did? |
9812 | Was it his custom on previous visits, to walk about your house before the servants were up? |
9812 | Was it the operative''s message to you about Hartzman which brought you here tonight? |
9812 | Was it your habit to supply Julie with money? |
9812 | Was the electric light turned on in Mr. Spencer''s room when you left him for the night? |
9812 | Was the electric light turned on in the elevator when you entered it? |
9812 | Was there any indication, Doctor, of resistance on the part of the deceased? 9812 Was there any indication, besides the tossing of the bedclothes, that the deceased had made preparations to sleep there?" |
9812 | Was there anything about the room which especially claimed your attention? |
9812 | We are going up to my boudoir, Kathleen; wo n''t you come, dear? |
9812 | Well, perhaps-- is Mr. Whitney at home? |
9812 | Well, what is it? |
9812 | Well, why should n''t she? |
9812 | Well? |
9812 | Were his hands opened or clenched? |
9812 | Were there indications of death from extreme alcoholism, then? |
9812 | Were you aroused during the night by any noise? |
9812 | Were you awakened during the night by any noise? |
9812 | Were you aware that Mr. Spencer was also spending the night under your roof? |
9812 | Were you educated in this city? |
9812 | Were you entirely educated in South America? |
9812 | Were you intimately acquainted? |
9812 | Were you not reported engaged to him last fall? |
9812 | Wh- what d- did you say? |
9812 | Wh- what is it you ask? |
9812 | What about this Spencer mystery, Baron? 9812 What are you hinting at?" |
9812 | What can I do for you? |
9812 | What can I do for you? |
9812 | What can be keeping Miss Grey? |

9812 | What does the cook say about Julie''s disappearance? |
9812 | What had that most impertinent American girl you met in Germany to do with your change of front toward Molly? |
9812 | What have I to do with his will? |
9812 | What have I to do with his will? |
9812 | What have you to report? 9812 What is it, John?" |
9812 | What is it? |
9812 | What is missing? |
9812 | What is that in your lap? |
9812 | What is that? |
9812 | What is the matter with Kathleen tonight? 9812 What is the matter with Kathleen''s welfare? |
9812 | What is the matter with Miss Kathleen? |
9812 | What is your pound of flesh? |
9812 | What leads you to think that? |
9812 | What motive inspired Spencer to feign drunkenness,he asked,"and when everyone was asleep, to steal over this house like a thief in the night?" |
9812 | What night? |
9812 | What possessed her to go to the sub- cellar? |
9812 | What precautions would you suggest? |
9812 | What price then all these suspected plots and futile intrigues? |
9812 | What prompted Spencer to desire to steal my inventions? |

9812 | Where are you going? |
9812 | Where did you find this note? |
9812 | Where did you get that piece of information? |

9812 | Where is the jury? |
9812 | Where were you yesterday afternoon, Randall? |
9812 | Where will they be? |
9812 | Where, pray, did you pick him up? |
9812 | Which way are you going? |
9812 | While in his room Tuesday night did you observe his clothes on a chair or table? 9812 Who cares?" |
9812 | Who fired that revolver? |
9812 | Who found Whitney in his studio this morning? |
9812 | Who is lurking there? |
9812 | Who is the holder of the note? |
9812 | Who is the man glaring at us from the end of the table? |
9812 | Who is this fellow, Charles Miller? |
9812 | Who murdered him? |
9812 | Who sent you the flowers, Kathleen? |
9812 | Whose place did I fill? |
9812 | Why did n''t Kathleen remain a schoolgirl? |
9812 | Why did n''t you turn on the electric lights? |
9812 | Why did you not deliver them to me last night? |
9812 | Why did you select that room? 9812 Why discuss the matter further?" |
9812 | Why dissemble any longer? 9812 Why do n''t you chaps arrest such speeders?" |
9812 | Why do you not wear my ring, Kathleen? |
9812 | Why does Kathleen avoid me? |
9812 | Why have you not declared yourself before? |
9812 | Why is Mrs. Whitney wearing these finger tips? |
9812 | Why not leave well enough alone? |
9812 | Why not try and find Julie, the French maid? |
9812 | Why should I sign any such papers? |
9812 | Why should Kathleen betray such emotion? 9812 Why should the maid play watchdog?" |
9812 | Why stay here? |
9812 | Why the devil should I take you through my studio? |
9812 | Why, sir, he''s dead...."Whitney? |
9812 | Why, what happened? |
9812 | Why, why did n''t she speak, and let me know who she was? |
9812 | Why? |
9812 | Will he escape? |
9812 | Will he recover? |
9812 | Will he, mademoiselle? 9812 Will mademoiselle attend the meeting tonight?" |
9812 | Will the President review the fleet? |
9812 | Will you do something for me? |
9812 | Will you drive, sir? |
9812 | Will you find out from them before I go? |
9812 | Will you kindly inform us who you are? |
9812 | Will you never realize that Kathleen is exceptionally pretty, with the gift of fascination? |
9812 | Will you smoke? |
9812 | Will you tell the police of your suspicions concerning Henry? |
9812 | Winslow, I''ve asked the servants, and they tell me she has disappeared...."She? 9812 With whom?" |
9812 | Wo n''t you sit down? |
9812 | Wo n''t you wait for Captain Miller? |
9812 | Would it not be a friendly act to place Whitney in a position to coin money? |
9812 | Yes, had n''t you better send for him? |
9812 | Yes, miniature painting--"And modeling? |
9812 | Yes? |
9812 | You answered the bell at four in the morning? |
9812 | You are not engaged to him? |
9812 | You are quite certain the Baron said he would return on the night train? |
9812 | You are sure he wore nothing over it? |
9812 | You are willing to shield Mademoiselle Kathleen at all costs? |
9812 | You believe that he was interested in my inventions? |
9812 | You called me? |
9812 | You do not, then, wish to make a confidant of the police? |
9812 | You examined the body in the elevator? |
9812 | You have not lost your--"Courage? |
9812 | You hint at conspiracy? |
9812 | You made a thorough examination of Miss Whitney''s room? |
9812 | You made the autopsy upon Mr. Sinclair Spencer? |
9812 | You make this proposal, and at this time? |
9812 | You mean his camera for use in aeroplanes? |
9812 | You mean-- architecturally? |
9812 | You still have yours? |
9812 | You take it for granted that Spencer was dead at that time? |
9812 | You think she is in danger? |
9812 | You think so? |
9812 | You understand the English tongue? |
9812 | You use azurea perfume, do you not? |
9812 | You-- you refuse? |
9812 | You? |
9812 | Your full name? |
9812 | Your name--? |
9812 | _ Oui, monsieur._"And you think you can best accomplish that result by avoiding the police? |
9812 | _ You?_Her tone stung him to the quick. |
9812 | _ You_ ask me that? |
9812 | _ You_? |
9812 | A deathbed repentance? |
9812 | After all, Winslow,"unable to restrain the dig,"you are responsible for Sinclair Spencer''s intimate footing in this house....""Intimate footing? |
9812 | Again I ask, what was your object in attempting to remove the blood stain?" |
9812 | All ready? |
9812 | Am I outside the pale of affection?" |
9812 | Are they brought into the world to be tools of militarism? |
9812 | Are you willing to shield her at all costs?" |
9812 | Before the swing door closed tightly, they heard her say:"Oh, Kiametia...""What is the reason the servants are so anxious to decamp?" |
9812 | But tell me, do you know nothing about the man''s family-- his character?" |
9812 | But what--?" |
9812 | But, monsieur, why did you advise that I stay away from mademoiselle, and take me to that dreadful house?" |
9812 | By the way, Kiametia, what kept you so long upstairs when Mitchell asked you to find out if Miller was with Miss Kathleen?" |
9812 | CHAPTER IV"SHOULD AULD ACQUAINTANCE BE FORGOT?" |
9812 | Can I do anything for you?" |
9812 | Can you find any candles on the mantel, sir?" |
9812 | Can you translate it for me, mademoiselle?" |
9812 | Can"--clearing his throat--"can Spencer be moved?" |
9812 | Careful of that step,"and as the morgue master appeared, he asked,"Is Miss Kiametia Grey here?" |
9812 | Could he find his way about it alone in the dark?" |
9812 | Could she keep up the farce much longer? |
9812 | Could she place faith in his sincerity? |
9812 | Did not the coroner''s jury convict me?" |
9812 | Did you get a copy in Edmonston''s?" |
9812 | Do I illtreat her? |
9812 | Do I make her spend hours here helping me in this"--sarcastically--"sweatshop? |
9812 | Do you think it has any hope of success?" |
9812 | Do you think that tomorrow you can sign some papers in reference to Sinclair Spencer''s will?" |
9812 | Does Dr. McLane hold out any hope?" |
9812 | Does not his death come at a most unfortunate moment?" |
9812 | Drawers opened, or anything?" |
9812 | From whom could she get a newspaper? |
9812 | Gentlemen, is it your wish that he be intrusted with the delicate mission of which we have just been speaking?" |
9812 | Got potted yourself, did n''t you?" |
9812 | Had Italy cast her lot with the Allies? |
9812 | Had Kathleen spoken to them of his proposal of marriage that morning and her refusal? |
9812 | Had Mrs. Whitney''s smilingly collected manner and dignified reserve cloaked a cold, calculating, and treacherous nature? |
9812 | Had grief for them and anxiety for her beloved country developed hallucinations? |
9812 | Had the Allies attempted the drive hinted at during the winter months? |
9812 | Had the maid taken leave of her senses? |
9812 | Had they, by chance, discharged him? |
9812 | Has he been disrespectful?" |
9812 | Have a seat, Captain?" |
9812 | Have you everything you want, Kathleen?" |
9812 | Have you forgotten our relationship in Germany?" |
9812 | Have you nothing to report of the pernicious activities of the United States Government?" |
9812 | He entered and I waited long, oh, so long, when out came Henry and Captain Miller...""Well?" |
9812 | He paused and asked abruptly,"Has Kathleen seen Charles Miller?" |
9812 | He waited until his order had been followed, then demanded impetuously:"How is Miss Kathleen?" |
9812 | Hello, what is that on your index finger-- a half- moon?" |
9812 | Henry, did Vincent telephone for the doctor?" |
9812 | How came Julie to be back in the house? |
9812 | How came Miller to send her flowers which he knew were connected with that past he so ardently wished forgotten? |
9812 | How dared he thrust his presence upon her? |
9812 | How would she take the news he was imparting-- how deep was her affection for the dead spy? |
9812 | I can not manage this affair alone, I need assistance-- and--you are a frequent caller at the Whitney house....""Well, what then?" |
9812 | I hope that you are not a peace- at- any- price American?" |
9812 | I thought she was as tough as a horse?" |
9812 | I will gratify your every wish"--Kathleen shook her head, and he added heatedly,"What is there about me you do n''t like?" |
9812 | I''m reading from the left hand, let me see the other....""Is n''t the one nearest the heart the surest guide?" |
9812 | Is she refused money? |
9812 | Is there some place I can wait downstairs?" |
9812 | It''s a scar, is n''t it?" |
9812 | Just a moment, sir,"as Miller started to cross the deserted dining- room,"Shall I reserve the table for you for luncheon, sir?" |
9812 | Kathleen Whitney, her kind friend rather than employer, was convicted-- then her absence had not benefited her? |
9812 | Keep me company? |
9812 | Kiametia? |
9812 | Listen, is n''t that a shot?" |
9812 | Mademoiselle, what have these beasts done to you?" |
9812 | May I ask how you know who I am?" |
9812 | Miss Kiametia nodded affirmatively, and he asked;"Has Kathleen spoken to you of seeing him since Spencer''s death?" |
9812 | No?" |
9812 | Not waiting for a reply he prepared to leave, and a covert sneer crossed his lips as he asked,"Found anything criminal?" |
9812 | Now, Minna, what did you ask me a few minutes ago?" |
9812 | Or was he up to some particular deviltry? |
9812 | Quickly he forestalled the question he saw coming,"And your plan of campaign, Hartzmann, what of it?" |
9812 | Shall I send Julie to you?" |
9812 | She waited expectantly for her husband''s comment, but getting no reply, she burst out,"What was he doing there-- how came he to be there?" |
9812 | She was faithful to Germany...""Do you mean to insinuate that Minna Whitney was a German spy?" |
9812 | She, his accomplice? |
9812 | Should she not take them to Miss Kiametia? |
9812 | Should she seek Mrs. Robinson in the kitchen? |
9812 | Spencer?" |
9812 | Spencer?" |
9812 | Spencer?" |
9812 | Spencer?" |
9812 | Spencer?" |
9812 | Spencer?" |
9812 | Spencer?" |
9812 | Spencer?" |
9812 | Spencer?" |
9812 | Spencer?" |
9812 | Suppose Henry, for instance, should take it into his head to examine them? |
9812 | Surely, Mr. Spencer, you can not have expected any other answer-- cannot have deluded yourself into thinking that I could possibly accept you? |
9812 | Surely, surely they were past the last of the Allies''trenches? |
9812 | Tell me, Dad"--Kathleen regarded Whitney intently--"how is it that I am not in jail? |
9812 | Tell me, boy,"his voice softening,"how is it with you and Molly?" |
9812 | Tell me, mademoiselle, what is Roebling''s?" |
9812 | The chauffeur stepped closer to his side and while assisting him, whispered:"Did you get the invention?" |
9812 | The chauffeur?" |
9812 | Then madame engages Henry....""Henry? |
9812 | Therefore, why harbor a doubt of her innocence?" |
9812 | To what had he brought her? |
9812 | Was Julie''s mind unbalanced? |
9812 | Was it deliberate murder or suicide? |
9812 | Was there anything else you wished to see me about? |
9812 | Were the Sisters in Unity as strenuous as ever?" |
9812 | What about the coal strikes-- the trouble in our munition factories? |
9812 | What can have brought on this attack of hysterics, Kiametia?" |
9812 | What did that mean? |
9812 | What do you do but give up your time to the Sisters in Unity? |
9812 | What for?" |
9812 | What had Mrs. Robinson meant by telling her she did not take newspapers? |
9812 | What had come over her? |
9812 | What have you there?" |
9812 | What is it, Sylvester?" |
9812 | What mad blood- lust had made him throw the world away? |
9812 | What of the army?" |
9812 | What of your children and the fate of yet unborn generations? |
9812 | What possessed Kathleen Whitney? |
9812 | What was happening in Europe? |
9812 | What was he there for? |
9812 | What''s that?" |
9812 | Where is Julie?" |
9812 | Where would you suggest that I begin my search among Whitney''s household for a motive which will explain the murder?" |
9812 | Where_ is_ the morgue?" |
9812 | Which would reach him first-- the person creeping upstairs or the automatic electric elevator? |
9812 | Whitney drew a long breath,"Is Spencer really dead?" |
9812 | Whitney?" |
9812 | Whitney?" |
9812 | Whitney?" |
9812 | Whitney?" |
9812 | Whitney?" |
9812 | Whitney?" |
9812 | Whitney?" |
9812 | Whitney?" |
9812 | Whitney?" |
9812 | Whitney?" |
9812 | Whitney?" |
9812 | Whitney?" |
9812 | Who is Kathleen?" |
9812 | Who sent you those orchids?" |
9812 | Who?" |
9812 | Why are you protecting Whitney, unless he''s your tool?" |
9812 | Why did her letters to England remain unanswered? |
9812 | Why did n''t she let me know she was coming down here?" |
9812 | Why do you not apply to Senator Randall Foster? |
9812 | Why not go to a front window and hail a newsboy; there might be one in the vicinity? |
9812 | Why was Henry driving a car other than the Whitneys''? |
9812 | Why was Sinclair Spencer gallivanting about this house in his stocking feet?" |
9812 | Why was he changing the conversation? |
9812 | Will you leave this house, or shall I ring for the servant?" |
9812 | Wo n''t you sit down, dear?" |
9812 | Wo n''t you stop--?" |
9812 | Would Miller''s plan for catching Spencer''s murderer work out? |
9812 | Would that other prove loyal? |
9812 | Yes? |
9812 | You are to go to America--""I?" |
9812 | You know-- how, I do not inquire-- of my deep affection for Mademoiselle Kathleen....""Who would not love her?" |
9812 | she added under her breath, and quickly changed the subject"Any news of Julie''s whereabouts, Minna?" |
