4515Ammunition?
4515And after that-- you saw him?
4515And change black into the color of the sun?
4515And how much farther have we to go?
4515And if he HAD I guess you''d have let me smash his brains out when he was bending over the stove, would n''t you?
4515And yet you have seen white women at Fort Churchill, at York Factory, at Lac la Biche, at Cumberland House, and Norway House, and at Fort Albany?
4515And you will believe me if I tell you the rest?
4515And you?
4515And-- grub?
4515Bless your heart, you do n''t want to see me beat out of a breakfast, do you?
4515Ca n''t understand her, eh?
4515Do n''t you know how these Kogmollock heathen look on a father- in- law?
4515Do you suppose he was afraid of YOU?
4515How did you get HERE?
4515How far have we come, Bram?
4515Is that it, little girl? 4515 Is that why he does n''t leave even the butcher- knife in this shack?
4515It makes one shiver, eh, Pierre? 4515 It''s you they want, eh?
4515Shall I throw out my bed?
4515So it''s YOU?
4515So you''re Philip Raine, of the R. N. M. P., eh? 4515 The-- the-- WHAT?"
4515What did she say, Olaf?
4515What do I WANT of her?
4515Where did you start from, and where did you come ashore? 4515 Why do n''t you talk?
4515Why-- talk?
4515You believe me, M''sieu?
4515You do n''t understand a cussed word of it, do you?
4515You have never seen hair the color of this, Pierre?
4515You mean Anderson-- Olaf Anderson-- and the others up at Bathurst Inlet?
4515Your-- your father?
4515And I must be careful and not let you know it, must n''t I?
4515And I''m wondering, after you kill me, and they kill you, WHO''LL HAVE THE GIRL?
4515And for what reason were mysterious enemies coming after her through the gray dawn?
4515And had he guessed correctly?
4515And if dissimulation-- why?
4515And keeping yourself in the background while your Kogmollocks did the work?
4515And then he suddenly added,"Celie, have you any more cartridges for this pop- gun?
4515And was it possible that the girl did not guess her danger as she stood there?
4515And what even would the club avail?
4515And where-- WHERE in God''s name are we going?"
4515And why, Philip asked himself, did these savage little barbarians of the north want HER?
4515But WHY had she come, and what had happened to make her the companion or prisoner of Bram Johnson?
4515But how in Heaven''s name did you get HERE?"
4515But how was he to discover that fact?
4515But would their enemies return?
4515But would you understand?
4515Ca n''t you answer?
4515Can you leave your foxes and poison- baits and your deadfalls long enough for that?"
4515Damned funny, ai n''t it?"
4515Did you see that fellow topple off the fence?
4515Did you split even on the cartridges?"
4515Do I make myself clear?
4515Do you understand?
4515Do you?"
4515Eh, what''s that?"
4515Great Scott, ca n''t you give me some sort of an idea of who you are and where you same from?"
4515Had he twice made a fool of himself?
4515Have you a spare pipeful of tobacco, Phil?
4515How many men you got?"
4515How the devil did you do it?
4515If you have-- let''s see, where did I leave off in that story about Princess Celie and the Duke of Rugni?"
4515Is n''t it in your mind?"
4515It makes one think of-- WHAT?
4515Meanwhile we''ll get a little start for home, eh?
4515Nice little package for her to have opened, eh?"
4515Now, if you were n''t afraid of Bram, and if he has n''t hurt you, why did you look like that?
4515Now-- I wonder WHY?"
4515Now-- what in God''s name does it mean?
4515Or-- had he faith in his prisoner?
4515See those little groups forming?
4515Shall we light some of Bram''s candles?"
4515Should he have winged Bram Johnson, three times a murderer, in place of offering him a greeting?
4515Should he knock the wolf- man''s brains out as he knelt there?
4515So-- is it strange that he should snare rabbits with, a woman''s hair?"
4515That''s it-- would you understand that I love every inch of you from the ground up or would you think I was just beast?
4515The OTHERS?
4515There was an unmistakable irony in his voice when he said:"It''s funny, Raine, that I should like you, ai n''t it?
4515Understand?
4515Understand?
4515Understand?
4515Was Bram Johnson actually mad-- or was he playing a colossal sham?
4515Was he afraid you might shoot him in his sleep if he left the temptation in your way?"
4515Was it conceivable, he asked himself, that the Eskimos had some reason for NOT killing Paul Armin, and that Celie was aware of the fact?
4515Was it not a long, long time ago, and had she not in that time become, flesh and soul, a part of him?
4515Was it not possible that the spying Kogmollocks had seen him go away on the hunt, and had taken advantage of the opportunity to attack the cabin?
4515Was it only this morning that he had first seen her, he asked himself?
4515Was it possible that Bram was striking straight north for Coronation Gulf and the Eskimo?
4515Was it possible that he understood her?
4515Was it possible that his shots had frightened Bram?
4515Was it possible that she had comprehended some word or thought of what he had expressed to her?
4515Was that it?"
4515Was the suspicion real and the stupidity a clever dissimulation?
4515What chance could this other man have?
4515What do you want of this girl, and what have you done with her people?"
4515What had brought her to the barren Arctic coast of America?
4515What has happened?
4515What''s yours?"
4515Where are we going?
4515Where is he?"
4515Who is she?
4515Who was she?
4515Who were the mysterious enemies from whom Bram the madman had saved her?
4515Why are you here with a madman and a murderer?"
4515Why did you wait until this morning?
4515Why do n''t you talk, and let me know who she is, and why she is here, and what you want me to do?"
4515Why had she gone to Siberia?
4515Why not be human?
4515Why was she with Bram Johnson?
4515Why you no shoot when I am there-- at head of pack?"
4515Why, then, had he not attacked him the night of the caribou kill?
4515Would n''t you?"
4515You landed from that ship, did n''t you?
4515You''re from Denmark?
11426Achille, you have n''t anything against me-- do you want me to die?
11426All is at peace between us?
11426All of that is quite true,he repeated after a second''s pause;"but what has it to do with me?
11426And in the meantime?
11426Are you just a little sorry for me?
11426Are you there, Galen Albret?
11426Are you? 11426 Better to take_ la Longue Traverse_ in summer, eh?"
11426But is it not a little calculating? 11426 But your heart?"
11426Ca n''t you see?
11426Do n''t you hear?
11426Do n''t you see the logic of events forces me to think so? 11426 Do n''t you think this farce is about played out?
11426Do you leave-- to- day?
11426Do you think I will tell you?
11426Do you wish me to go, father?
11426For w''at I want dat you die? 11426 Have you a canoe?"
11426Have you a rifle-- for_ la Longue Traverse_?
11426How could I know?
11426How you mak''eet him so mad? 11426 How you mak''eet him?"
11426I beleef you,responded Achille, cheerfully;"w''at you call heem your nam''?"
11426Is he gone?
11426Is that all?
11426Is the journey then so long, sir,she asked composedly,"that it at once inspires such anticipations-- and such bitterness?"
11426Is the trade so good, are your needs then so great, that you must run these perils?
11426Is there anything I can do for you?
11426Mademoiselle?
11426Must I decide at once?
11426No-- yes-- why not?
11426Shall I be sent out at once, do you think?
11426Sorry for a weakness you do not understand? 11426 Surely you can forgive me, a desperate man, almost anything?"
11426That you? 11426 Then why did you change your mind?"
11426Then why do you stay in this dreadful North?
11426Then why is he not our guest?
11426Then why?
11426This dreadful thing is necessary?
11426This_ Longue Traverse_,went on Albret,"what is your idea there?
11426Virginia goes with me?
11426Virginia, this is true?
11426Wat you do? 11426 Wat you wan''me do?"
11426Well?
11426What do you mean by that?
11426What do you mean?
11426What do you mean?
11426What do you want with me?
11426What does this mean?
11426What great danger is he in?
11426What happened?
11426What is his station? 11426 What is that?"
11426What is that?
11426What then?
11426What wrong?
11426What?
11426Who can tell?
11426Who is that man? 11426 Who told you?"
11426Who was that second person?
11426Who?
11426Whose?
11426Why did I come? 11426 Why did I come?"
11426Why did you come here, then? 11426 Why did you not ask me, as you intended?
11426Why not?
11426Why, if you have realized the gravity of your situation have you persisted after having been twice warned?
11426Why-- why did you come?
11426Why? 11426 Why?"
11426Why?
11426Why?
11426Will not the princess leave her sisters of dreams?
11426Will she recover?
11426You are going to Quebec?
11426You are going to do this thing, father,appealed Virginia,"after what I have told you?"
11426You can not mean that?
11426You consent? 11426 You do not believe me?"
11426You have everything you need?
11426You knew my father?
11426You knew this before?
11426You know who aided this man?
11426You love my daughter truly?
11426You persist in that nonsense?
11426You refuse?
11426You tell me of it yourself? 11426 You think so?"
11426You think so?
11426You were alone?
11426You?
11426Your father-- you knew him well?
11426Your right?
11426Am I forgiven?"
11426And that is a solemn thing; is it not?"
11426Are you going to treat your little girl so-- your Virginia?
11426Are you, indeed?"
11426But do I err in concluding that the state of your game law is such that it would be useless to reclaim my rifle from the engaging Placide?"
11426But last night----""Yes, last night?"
11426But where did you get this rifle?"
11426Can you ask that?
11426Did be not owe her, too, some reparation?
11426Did n''t you hear me calling you when you paddled away?
11426Did you come here to try_ la Longue Traverse_ of which you spoke to- day?"
11426Do n''t you see how I felt?
11426Do n''t you suppose I had weighed the risks and had made up my mind to take my medicine if I should be caught?
11426Do n''t you suppose I knew what I was about when I came into this country?
11426Do n''t you understand?"
11426Do you dare deny my will?
11426Do you dare interfere where I think well?
11426Do you dare set your judgment against mine?
11426Do you refuse?"
11426Do you think I have not been here often before I was caught?
11426Do you wish to know the real reason for my coming into this country, why I have traded in defiance of the Company throughout the whole Far North?
11426Does it touch you a little?
11426Does the Company own the Indians and the creatures of the woods?"
11426Does_ he_ give such orders?
11426Feel the wind on your cheek?
11426Had he nothing more to tell her?
11426Had she not heard it in the music of his voice from the first?--the passion of his tones?
11426Have there been men sent out since you came here?"
11426How could I help but come?
11426I believe I could touch her pity-- ah, Ned Trent, Ned Trent, can you ever forget her frightened, white face begging you to be kind?"
11426In what danger does he stand?
11426Is he a common trader?
11426She exclaimed, in astonishment,"Are you not of the Company?"
11426Since when has the Company confided in Andrew Laviolette, in Wishkobun, in_ you_?"
11426Surely you admit the injustice?"
11426That is a solemn thing, too, is it not?"
11426The hardships of the wilderness are many, the dangers terrible-- what more natural than that a man should die of them in the forest?
11426They have my goods-- but I----""You?"
11426Was not this an opportunity vouchsafed him to repair his ancient fault, to cleanse his conscience of the one sin of the kind it would acknowledge?
11426Was the word to lack, the word she needed so much?
11426Was this to be all?
11426What are you going to ask of me?"
11426What do you suppose I care what, or what not, any of this crew wants?
11426What does he want a rifle for?
11426What is your information?"
11426What must he think of her?
11426What other course is open to you?
11426What was the aid you asked of him?
11426When do I leave?"
11426Who is this man?"
11426Why am I stopped and sent out from the free forest?
11426Why did you come back?
11426Why did you come?"
11426Why did you tell me these lies?"
11426Why has it been kept from me alone?
11426Why is that?"
11426Will you not greet me?"
11426Will you promise to do that?"
11426Wo n''t you tell me about it?"
11426Would not you too mock and sneer?
11426Would not you, too, be bitter, mademoiselle?
11426Would you like to go to Quebec?"
11426You is come trade dose fur?
11426You will be there-- surely?"
11426_ He_?"
11426_ What_ is he?"
11426_ Who_ is he?
11426and where else did you expect to get it?"
11426the dreamy, lyrical swing of his talk by the old bronze guns?
11426whispered the voice, fantastically,"Will she not come?"
29406A love song?
29406Afraid?
29406And leave Father John?
29406And no girl was with him?
29406And was there with him a girl named Nada Hawkins?
29406And where is this country, Yellow Bird?
29406And wherever you go, I go-- forever and always?
29406And you are willing to go with me-- anywhere?
29406And you will never run away from me again?
29406And-- from the burnt country?
29406Been long in this country?
29406By the way, what did you say your name was?
29406Ca n''t get away, can you?
29406Can you make it?
29406Did he speak of others?
29406Did you ever hear of the Country Beyond?
29406Do n''t you understand, Nada?
29406Does the wager still hold, Cassidy?
29406Down south?
29406Father, you will come to us?
29406Glad that I am-- your wife?
29406Got you both now, have n''t I?
29406Have n''t any idea where one might come upon this Jolly Roger, have you?
29406He''ll live?
29406He-- pulled your hair, you say?
29406Heard what?
29406Hittin''north are you, Jolly Roger?
29406How do you like married life, Mrs. Jolly Roger?
29406How far before I come to the end of fire?
29406If anything should happen-- now--"Yes, if the thing you fear should happen, what then?
29406Is it--_you_?
29406It is like Blind Man''s Buff, is n''t it? 29406 It''s funny he do n''t want anybody to know he''s there, ai n''t it-- I mean-- isn''t it, Peter?"
29406Just get in?
29406May we?

29406Nada, what''s happened?
29406Nee- kewa,_ did you hear_?
29406Never?
29406Not so bad, is it?
29406Oh, Roger, why did n''t we bring Peter?
29406Oh, my boy, my dear boy, what are five years to pay for such a treasure as that which has come into your possession tonight? 29406 Or an uninhabited island?"
29406Peter, Peter, where have you been?
29406Peter,she whispered,"will you do it?"
29406Please tell me, Mister Jolly Roger-- is he hurt-- bad?
29406Remember the little jackpine clump down there? 29406 Right?
29406Right?
29406Roger, what do you mean?
29406Tell me-- where is she?
29406That''s what Yellow Bird told us, was n''t it? 29406 Tired,_ Pied- Bot_?"
29406To the end of the earth?
29406Want to know why?
29406We ai n''t afraid, are we, baby? 29406 We could have a big house here if we wanted to dig out rooms-- eh, Peter?
29406What do you think my cabin is, Breault-- a Rest for Homeless Outlaws?
29406What happened in the creek, Nada?
29406What is his name?
29406What is it, Miss Tavish?
29406What is it, Peter?
29406What is it,_ Pied- Bot_?
29406What sort of looking girl was Nada Hawkins?
29406What was it, Peter? 29406 What, then, Roger?

29406You mean-- up there?
29406You promise that?
29406You say it is n''t a wolverine, Peter? 29406 You think what?"
29406''What are five years-- or ten-- or twenty,_ if I know I am to have him after that_?''
29406''What are five years?''
29406A shabby trick, do n''t you think?
29406And I''m wondering, Peter-- I''m wondering-- why did God forget to give a dog speech?"
29406And Sun Cloud?"
29406And does it make you happy, and fearless now?"
29406And is there any reward tacked to it?
29406And now-- if I free your hands-- will you swear to give me a two hours''start before you leave this cabin?"
29406And so-- was it not conceivable that the other would also come true?
29406And some day, Father John will bring him?"
29406And then the Missioner said:"You have heard?
29406And then,"Is it true-- what Father John has told me?"
29406Anything in it for me?"
29406As he did this he was thinking to himself,"Why am I doing this?
29406Breault heard the sigh, and grunted a reply,"Hungry again, Peter?"
29406But if it happens she likes Africa better, or Australia, or the South Sea-- Now, what the devil was that?"
29406But was he bad?
29406But what do we care for color as long as we have_ her_ with us?
29406Can the wind shoot a gun-- like_ that_?"
29406Can you see?"
29406Could it be Nada?
29406Did n''t it?
29406Did you ever hear of Father John, the Missioner at Cragg''s Ridge?"
29406Do you mean you are going to keep my wife ironed like this?"
29406Do you see the wonder of it, son?
29406Eh,_ Pied- Bot_?"
29406Ever hear of him?"
29406Five years, and after that-- peace, love, happiness for all time?
29406Funny name for a dog, is n''t it?"
29406Had her mind actually communed with the mind of Nada?
29406Had she, through the sheer force of her illimitable faith, projected her subconscious self into the future that she might show him the way?
29406Have the spirits changed their message, because the night is heavy?"
29406Have you ever dreamed of leaving it, Roger-- of going down into that world of towns and cities of which Father John has told me so much?"
29406Have you told Mrs. Jolly Roger about that?"
29406If Jed Hawkins ever hits you again, or pulls your hair, or even threatens to do it-- will you tell me?"
29406If the law compels you to pay a price for the errors it believes you have committed, will that price be so terribly severe?"
29406If you do n''t get me next time-- if you fail, and I turn the trick on you once more-- will you quit?"
29406If you happen to see him at any time give him that information, will you?"
29406Is it too great a price to pay?
29406Is it, Roger?"
29406Is that it, Breault?
29406Is that what you''re trying to tell me?"
29406Is that you, Cassidy?"
29406Is that you, McKay?"
29406Made a hell of a mess of it, have n''t I?"
29406Mebby it''s a place to sleep in for the night you want, stranger?"
29406Remember how you growled at me, Peter?"
29406See that tree over there, with a vine as big as my wrist winding around it, like a snake?
29406Shall we go back to Yellow Bird, Peter?
29406Shall we take a chance, and go back to Cragg''s Ridge in the spring?"
29406Silly bunch, are n''t they?
29406Someone has told you?"
29406Suddenly he asked,"How old is she, Liz?"
29406Tell Cassidy that, will you?"
29406That''s what you been preachin''me these last ten years''bout whiskey- runnin,''but it ai n''t made me stop sellin''whiskey, has it?
29406Then,"Were you thinking only of the brush, Roger-- and of the hurt it might cause me?"
29406They would never think of looking for us in the heart of a big snow- dune out in this God- forsaken barren, would they?"
29406Think you can understand that?"
29406Understand,_ Pied- Bot_?"
29406Understand?
29406Was it possible she had followed him after his flight, determined to find him, and share his fate?
29406Was it possible she had told him the truth?
29406Was it possible that Nada and the Missioner had not escaped its fury?
29406Was that not a sound out on the water?"
29406We ca n''t lose that redheaded fox, can we?"
29406What are five years, when all life reaches out a paradise before us?
29406What do you think,_ Pied- Bot_?
29406When?"
29406Who else, of all the women in the world, could be following his trail across the Barrens-- a thousand miles from civilization?
29406Why did they send Cassidy-- the fairest and squarest man that ever wore red?
29406Will you keep him here?
29406With her eyes looking down at the greening earth under their feet, Nada said, very softly,"Mister-- Jolly Roger-- are you glad?"
29406Wo n''t you have breakfast with me?
29406Would n''t you say something happened?"
29406You are not afraid?"
29406You know him?"
29406You understand?
29406You wo n''t say anything to her?"
53885Aleck is safe?
53885An''you wo n''t throw stones at her gulls?
53885And Simon?
53885And never let any other girl kiss you? 53885 And that?"
53885And the other?
53885And then?
53885And we have prayed a long time for your father to come back?
53885And you have n''t any idea what became of Carter?
53885And you''re warm now-- good and warm?
53885And-- you love him?
53885Any?
53885Are you brave enough to hear? 53885 Are you hungry, Peter?"
53885Are you licked?
53885As long as you live?
53885As long as you live?
53885But if I should get sick-- what would you do? 53885 By that you mean Curry will hold me in his power when I reach Five Fingers?"
53885Can you go on alone, Peter?
53885Can you remember your mother, Peter?
53885Can you see?
53885Dad wo n''t come back tonight or tomorrow?
53885Dad, what are they trying to shoot us for? 53885 Did you ever have many prayers answered?"
53885Did you hear anything?
53885Did you, Peter? 53885 Do you like it?"
53885Do you still see her?
53885Does it hurt, dad?
53885Does she look like me-- in your dreams, Peter?
53885Does the creek frighten you, son?
53885Even if it is tomorrow, or the next day?
53885Even if it was the plague?
53885Everything all right?
53885Feeling sick, Peter?
53885Getting hungry?
53885Has anything happened-- to Peter-- or to Donald McRae?
53885Has anything happened?
53885Has it occurred to you how nice it will be if-- in these two years of change you have anticipated-- something has happened to Curry? 53885 He is on the island?"
53885How much?
53885I''m a tub of fat, am I?
53885I''m a windbag, eh? 53885 If I bring Peter down there, under the tree, will you promise not to go away until I have seen you again?"
53885If I do-- will you promise never to kiss any other girl?
53885Is she pretty?
53885Is that you-- Carter?
53885Is your mother with him?
53885Let me kiss you?
53885Never thought the day would come when you''d be lugging your dad around like this, did you, Peter?
53885No?
53885Nor ever?
53885Not afraid, are you?
53885Of course nothing_ will_ happen, Peter, but if it should-- you promise to take that bottle to him?
53885Peter, who rang the bell?
53885So you helped Peter whip that young rascal Aleck Curry, did you?
53885Strange that I''ve let all the years go by without thinking of that, is n''t it? 53885 That was what he promised you-- the day he sent you on alone to Five Fingers, and ran away from you?
53885Then why did you run away from me when I was in the kitchen with Adette Clamart?
53885They ca n''t do anything worse than send me to prison, and if they do that-- would you mind waiting for me,_ Ange_?
53885They did n''t get us, did they, boy? 53885 They''re-- they''re----""What?"
53885Thirsty?
53885This is one, Peter?
53885Want something to eat, lad?
53885Was she pretty?
53885Was that why you touched my hair, Peter?
53885Were you lost?
53885What did I say?
53885What do you think of_ me_?
53885What does it mean?
53885What happened then, Mona?
53885What has happened?
53885What have you been doing?
53885What is it?
53885What is the matter, Peter?
53885What is your name?
53885What luck?
53885What will?
53885What?
53885Where does Simon McQuarrie live?
53885Where you from?
53885Where?
53885Who are you?
53885Who was he?
53885Who?
53885Why did n''t Peter kill him when he had the chance?
53885Why do n''t you want Carter to see us?
53885Why is it so round and glassy, Mona? 53885 Why must n''t Peter know you are here?"
53885Why not?
53885Why should they be, Peter? 53885 Why?"
53885Will I_ what_?
53885Will you like that?
53885Will you?
53885Wo n''t you come down to our place? 53885 Would you have_ me_ Peter''s father?"
53885You are not afraid of dreams, Mona?
53885You are sure it is best?
53885You did n''t mean what you said, then?
53885You do n''t like it?
53885You do_ what_?
53885You have n''t forgotten what I told you about Carter?
53885You have not harmed him?
53885You have to--_what_?
53885You heard me?
53885You like Mona?
53885You like fights?
53885You like flowers, Miss Adele?
53885You like me--_like that_?
53885You mean that?
53885You mean the rock with nothing on it-- two miles straight out from the beaver pond?
53885You mean-- Aleck Curry?
53885You thought of me-- on Christmas?
53885You understand? 53885 You were asleep,_ Ange_--with me bursting my throat to make you hear from the forest?"
53885You''re not afraid, Peter?
53885You-- Peter?
53885_ Why?_He led her back in the willows.
53885_ You!_ What is the matter?
53885A girl- beater, am I?
53885A tub of_ fat_, am I?
53885After a little he said:"Did I hear something, Peter?"
53885After this-- how would you like me to be_ your_ mother?"
53885And do you love Peter enough to help-- me?"
53885And then she added:"Why is it you do n''t want me to think you whipped him?
53885And yet-- what could Simon do?
53885And you will, Aleck-- you will help me, wo n''t you?"
53885And-- Peter-- did he ever tell you about-- his father?"
53885And-- what will happen to Peter?
53885Are n''t you afraid of what may happen next time?"
53885Are you a little excited?"
53885Are you ready?"
53885Are you?"
53885But after that-- what will happen to you?"
53885But we''ve been planning it a long time, have n''t we, Carter?"
53885Could she meet Pierre and Josette Gourdon, and Marie Antoinette, and Father Albanel, and Adette and Jame Clamart-- and not let them see her torture?
53885Death, for instance?"
53885Did you hear the lake?"
53885Do n''t you know why I ran away from Peter that day near Five Fingers, and sent him on to Simon McQuarrie?
53885Do n''t you think I''m nice?"
53885Do you like me, Peter-- really?"
53885Do you think you can kiss me very quickly before they come in?"
53885Do you understand, Mona?"
53885Do you?"
53885Does your eye hurt?"
53885Had Mona really prayed, or had she fooled him?
53885Had Simon already accomplished the thing she feared?
53885Had he said anything about it in his letter to Simon?
53885Have n''t you ever been ashamed of that?"
53885Have n''t you, Adele?"
53885Have you seen Carter?"
53885He tried again, and said:"So Mona found you, and you fought Aleck Curry and whipped him?"
53885How did you know?"
53885I wonder why porcupines like cabin doors and windowsills and axes and table legs when there are so many nice things to eat in the woods?"
53885I wonder-- why?"
53885Instead, she said:"Peter, you have not lied to me?
53885Is his name Peter McRae?"
53885Is n''t that a pretty name, Peter?
53885It was impossible-- now-- to answer that question of Peter''s,"_ What have we done?_"He raised his head, and faced his boy.
53885Nobody can help loving you, can they?"
53885See that log down there, the big dry one, half in the water?"
53885Suddenly he asked,"Did you ever see Mona''s mother?"
53885That is your name, is n''t it-- Peter McRae?"
53885Then he asked,"Have you been asleep, Peter?"
53885Then he asked:"What is Peter going to do?
53885Then he said:"Do you want me to tell you a story, Peter-- a story about another girl like Mona, who lived a long, long time ago?"
53885They want to--_hang him_?"
53885Understand, laddie?
53885Want to go?"
53885Was it because of what he had found on the island?
53885Was it possible Mona really believed he was getting the best of the fight when she began pommeling Aleck Curry with the stick?
53885Was that why he was so anxious to follow Carter, go with him-- get him away from Five Fingers?
53885Was this to be the answer to Mona''s prayer?
53885What can the law do to him?"
53885What did he mean?
53885What did you do to Peter-- when he came to the island?"
53885What does he_ plan_ to do?"
53885What have we done?"
53885What would the days be like-- and the nights-- and the months and years to come without Peter?
53885What would you have done, Peter?"
53885What''s that building down there, with the box- like thing on top of it?
53885When I first saw you, there in the sun, I thought----""What did you think?"
53885When they had left Pierre and were going toward the Gourdon cabin, Peter asked,"What did he mean when he called you_ Ange_?"
53885Where would his father be likely to go?
53885Wherein was he less helpless than herself-- or Peter?
53885Why did n''t Peter kill him?
53885Why do you tell them that?"
53885Why do you think it is so terrible?
53885Why had he sent him on alone to Five Fingers?
53885Why had his father lied to him, promising him he would come back in a day or two?
53885Why had n''t his father gone on to Five Fingers with him?
53885Why was he so slow?
53885Will you come and hear me tomorrow?"
53885Will you forgive me?"
53885Will you promise never to let her kiss you again?"
53885Will you remember that?"
53885With Peter dead or wounded on the island, and Simon gone, what hope was there now for Donald McRae?
53885Without Peter, would God give him strength to live?
53885Wo n''t they be surprised when they come and find us gone-- eh-- Peter?"
53885Would it be safe to return for Mona_ now_?
53885Would it show in her face when she met Carter, of the Provincial Police?
53885Would not a little church look pretty down there, just where the tip of the evergreen forest reaches to the Middle Finger?"
53885Would one of them-- Simon or Peter--_kill Aleck Curry_?
53885Would she be able to go through the day without giving herself away?
53885Would you dare to come and see me?"
53885Would you?"
53885You are n''t afraid to go alone, are you, Peter?"
53885You believe in prayer?"
53885You have never thought that he lied to you that day in the edge of the forest?"
53885You saw us?"
53885You''ve been to school a lot, have n''t you?"
53885_ What had happened to Peter?_ She did not ask the question.
5895Afraid of me?
5895Ah, Kazan, what in the name of the saints is that?
5895Am I pretty, Mélisse?
5895And NOW what do you think of your Jean de Gravois?
5895And NOW what if Jan Thoreau still feels that the curse is upon him?
5895And did you ever see me run any faster?
5895And if there was business to do-- important business, m''sieur, would it not be best to go to Le Commissionaire?
5895And mine?
5895And not for a friend?
5895And not here?
5895And that-- is all?
5895And then-- what?
5895And they would do business there-- important business?
5895And were you sorry I ran away from you?
5895And will they take me?
5895And you are going back into the south?
5895And you-- I will find you again?
5895And-- and Jean de Gravois, the chief man?
5895Are you going so soon, Jan?
5895Are you growing old, too, Jan?
5895Boy, wo n''t you tell me who you are, and why you came that night?
5895But I say, Mélisse--"Are the dogs ready?
5895Can you blame him, Jean? 5895 Could it happen?"
5895Did I not say that Jan had waited too long?
5895Did she send you?
5895Do I?
5895Do n''t you understand? 5895 Do you know that you are beautiful?"
5895Do you mean that, Jan Thoreau? 5895 Do you play much?"
5895Do you suppose she would begin in French?
5895Do you think I was?
5895Do you think so, Brother Jan?
5895Ees she not ceevilize?
5895Even the things you played when I was a baby?
5895For me alone, Iowaka?
5895For who you fight at ze Great Bear?
5895For who you fight at ze Great Bear?
5895For who you fight?
5895Gravois, will you shake hands with me?
5895Great Heaven, what is the matter?
5895Has MacVeigh put in his new trap- line?
5895Has anything come between you and Jan?
5895Have you drunk any other than mine since years ago at Churchill and York Factory?
5895Have you forgotten, Jan Thoreau? 5895 He is not going-- to leave-- the post?"
5895How could I ever get tired with you watching me run, Mélisse?
5895How do you know, brother?
5895How is Mrs. Gravois, and the little Gravois-- and Mélisse?
5895How is it?
5895How long has the red flag been up?
5895I ca n''t imagine how a girl would look with golden hair; can you, Jan?
5895I can''t-- unless--"What, m''sieur?
5895I see it? 5895 If one might have the oath broken, and not do it himself, what then?"
5895Into the South, m''sieur?
5895Is it because you are afraid that Mélisse will like him?
5895Is it not beautiful, my Iowaka?
5895Is n''t it a glorious morning, Jan? 5895 Is n''t that the way we have played it ever since I can remember?
5895Is she not worth it?
5895Is this not the glorious world, with the sun just rising off there, and spring only a few days away? 5895 It means that one will be for ever damned unless he confesses to a priest soon after, does n''t it ma chérie?
5895It was a long time ago, was n''t it?
5895Jan Thoreau, what if I should break my oath-- and tell Mélisse?
5895Jean de Gravois wonders if Jan Thoreau understands?
5895Jean, would n''t you do as I am doing? 5895 Looks like a fight, does n''t it, Jan?
5895M''sieur, how far have you gone-- WITH HER?
5895NOW what do you think of him, my beautiful one?
5895Never, Jean?
5895Now do you understand?
5895Now what do you think of me, brother Jan?
5895Over the Nelson House trail?
5895Shall I give you my best wishes, Jan Thoreau? 5895 Shall I strike a light, m''sieur?"
5895She will soon be a woman, did you say, Jan Thoreau? 5895 Signify-- what?"
5895Since when, Mélisse?
5895Some day I will do a great deal more for you than that, Mélisse, and then--"What?
5895Tell me, why?
5895Tell me-- tell me--he heard Dixon pant eagerly,"did she send you to hunt for me, Thoreau?"
5895That I love him?
5895That is what my people believe, Jean; and if I have given my soul to you, why should I not break oath for you?
5895That was your sledge-- out there?
5895The officers of the great company are at Winnipeg, and Le Commissionaire, are they not, m''sieur?
5895Then you would have taken up with some foreigner if I had remained in the Athabasca country another year or two?
5895They are all beautiful over there?
5895To- day is your birthday, Jan-- yours and mine, mine and yours-- and we will always have it that way-- always-- won''t we, Jan?
5895Was it not right for me to break my oath to the Blessed Virgin and tell Mélisse why Jan Thoreau had gone mad? 5895 Was n''t that the night we heard the wolves howling behind us?"
5895What are you fighting about, Gravois? 5895 What are you going to do to- day, Jan?"
5895What camps, m''sieur?
5895What did you mean, Jan Thoreau, by running away from me like that?
5895What if Iowaka had been here then?
5895What if the birds tell him what happened out there on the trail?
5895What is it?
5895What is this?
5895What?
5895When Mélisse is a little older, should we not go with her into the South?
5895Where are you going-- from here?
5895Which will it be? 5895 Who are they?"
5895Why are you going away the day after to- morrow-- two weeks before the others? 5895 Why have you been crying?"
5895Why?
5895Will you care for the dogs, Henri?
5895Will you have breakfast with me?
5895Will you stay with the little Mélisse and me?
5895Will you take me with you?
5895Will you take me?
5895Will you wait a moment?
5895Wo n''t you play for me, Jan?
5895You come from Churchill?
5895You did not see it?
5895You have been there?
5895You have never been down before?
5895You hear the music in the skies-- now, my Mélisse?
5895You saw it?
5895You swear it?
5895You were glad that I pummeled the stranger, then?
5895You will come to supper, Jan?
5895You will never tell what you read in the papers?
5895You would n''t run as fast for me now, would you?
5895Ah, would he ever forget that look?
5895And NOW do you understand why I did not tell Mélisse of this letter, ma chérie?
5895And after that-- after he had done this thing, what would there remain in life for Jan Thoreau?
5895And besides, do you not suppose that Jan would like to see ME?"
5895And did I not follow the trail that staggered down the mountain, while Iowaka brought you back to life?
5895And did n''t she HATE the Englishman all of the time?
5895And did not Mélisse do as I told that fool of a Jan that she WOULD do?
5895And did you ever see hair that shines so, like the top- feathers of a raven who''s nibbling at himself in the hottest bit of sunshine he can find?
5895And if she is not a woman at thirty, with two children-- God send others like them!--when will she be, I ask you?"
5895And if there is no priest nearer than four hundred miles, it is a dangerous thing to do, is it not?
5895And what will you do when I get to be a woman, Jan-- which will be very soon, you say?"
5895And when I came to it, was it not the dead body of the missioner from Churchill?
5895And when I came to the lake, did I not see something black out upon it, like a charred log?
5895Before he could answer she added mischievously:"Did you see any fairies at Churchill or York Factory?"
5895Blessed saints, man, but is she not growing more beautiful every day?"
5895Can you not speak, my raven- haired angel?"
5895Did n''t you come from there, or there, or there?"
5895Did you ever see a figure like that, Jan Thoreau?
5895Did you know that he was going to Nelson House?"
5895Do brothers love their sisters less as they grow older?"
5895Do you mean to give the knife- challenge to one who has staked his life for you and who loves you as a brother?"
5895Do you not believe that about the sins of the fathers falling upon others?
5895Do you remember when you last cut my hair?"
5895Do you suppose we''ll ever go to Churchill together, Jan, and ride on a wonderful ship like that?"
5895Do you understand, boy?
5895Do you understand, m''sieur?
5895Do you wish me to take back what I gave to you then?"
5895Does any one know but you and me?"
5895Does it signify?"
5895Eh, Jan Thoreau?"
5895Eh?
5895Faintly she said:"I''ve kept your dinner for you, Jan. Why did n''t you come sooner?"
5895God in Heaven, can you not guess what happened, m''sieur?
5895Good God, do n''t you understand?"
5895Has he told you more?"
5895He straightened like a spring and turned, to Jan."Did you meet the strange team?"
5895How long did you travel before you made this camp?"
5895I say, what better could there be than that?"
5895I wonder what bad spirit has come into my Jean?"
5895If there is anything Jean de Gravois can do?"
5895If you don''t--""Why?"
5895Is it a crime up here to kiss a pretty girl?"
5895Is it larger than the city that is called Winnipeg?"
5895Is n''t that fair?"
5895Is n''t there room for two?"
5895It was silly, was n''t it?"
5895Jan Thoreau is no-- what you call heem?"
5895Jan, have you seen my new lynx- skin cap?"
5895M''sieur, am I right?
5895Mon Dieu, what can a man do to make himself great in the eyes of his wife?"
5895SOMETHING sent you-- SOMETHING-- don''t you understand?
5895Shall I open the door so that we can hear it better?"
5895Shall we hurry back, Mélisse, and see if he has brought our books and violin- strings?"
5895Should he warn Jean de Gravois that a company officer was investigating the disappearance of the missionary?
5895Sloughing in the trail, bleeding at every foot, would they still drag their burden beyond the reach of his vengeance?
5895The one with golden hair?"
5895The stranger sat down in the chair next to Jan."From the camps?"
5895Under his breath he whispered, as he made pretense of looking at Jan''s hand:"Le diable, do you want to tell HIM?"
5895Was it not right, I say?
5895Was it the blessed angels coming for his Mélisse?
5895Was n''t that strange?"
5895Was that an echo he heard?
5895What better than that, eh?
5895What do you say to going back with me, Jan?"
5895What do you say, Mélisse?"
5895What do you think of your Jean de Gravois and his country now?"
5895Whom have you out from Lac Bain?"
5895Why ca n''t you forget?"
5895Why could not he go to school for Mélisse, and store up treasures which in time he might turn over to her?
5895Why did n''t you sleep until breakfast was ready?"
5895Why is it, do you suppose?"
5895Will it be right?"
5895Will you come?"
5895Will you help me with this?"
5895Will you take the bag, or will you never again come back to Lac Bain?"
5895Would n''t you have done as much for Iowaka?"
5895Would the dogs beat him out?
5895Would you do that much again?"
5895You are sure that you would break oath for none but me?"
5895You have been here-- all night?"
5895You make the best coffee in the world, Mélisse?"
5895You remember?"
5895You saw-- Cummins-- the factor?"
5895cried Jan."Mon Dieu, m''sieur-- does she not love you?"
4702About-- Black Roger?
4702Am I not right, M''sieu Carrigan? 4702 An''you promise give me zat fight, w''en you are strong?"
4702And Carmin Fanchet?
4702And Marie- Anne?
4702And YOU, until the last-- did you not fight to have her put behind prison bars with her brother?
4702And YOU?
4702And he told you it is determined that I shall fight Bateese in the morning?
4702And one who tries to kill-- who almost succeeds-- what is the penalty for that?
4702And the other two?
4702And why-- why should she insist in a matter such as this, which properly should be settled among men?
4702And you are disappointed, St. Pierre? 4702 And you are willing to wager the point, M''sieu David?"
4702And you insist, M''sieu David?
4702And you will forgive me for-- for saying such beastly things to you?
4702And you will help me up?
4702And you''ll take me with you?
4702And you?
4702And-- Golden-- Hair?
4702Because I talked about this woman, Carmin Fanchet?
4702But after I have told you-- what then? 4702 But ze head, m''sieu?"
4702Did I-- hurt you?
4702Did he tell you about it?
4702Did n''t Bateese explain to you last night?
4702Did n''t Bateese tell you that?
4702Did you not expect me to return and apologize for leaving you so suddenly this afternoon? 4702 Do I mak''ze word plain so m''sieu compren''?"
4702Do n''t you realize what has happened? 4702 Do you care?
4702Do you mind telling me who you are, and where we are going?
4702Do you see that, Concombre Bateese?
4702Does ze little partridge rooster keep his claws warm in those in ze winter? 4702 For God''s sake, Audemard-- tell me--""I, m''sieu?
4702For your husband?
4702Has she not the sweetest voice in the world, m''sieu? 4702 Have you seen Bateese this morning?"
4702Her camp?
4702Home--?
4702How are you, David?
4702I ask you,said he,"if you would really stake your life in a matter such as that?
4702I do n''t mind telling you it is going to be difficult for me to do that-- because-- well, this is a most unusual situation, is n''t it? 4702 I say, is there another woman like her in the world, m''sieu?"
4702I was thinking, Bateese-- what will happen to me if you get me in those arms when we fight? 4702 I wonder,"she said in a low voice,"what Roger Audemard''s own story might be if he were here to tell it?"
4702I? 4702 Is he an old man?"
4702Is it true that St. Pierre can not whip you, Bateese?
4702Is it true that you have given your word to fight Bateese?
4702Is that why you have given your men orders to kill me if I try to escape?
4702It does n''t hurt so much now, does it?
4702It would n''t be fair to tell you, would it?
4702Joe, what do you say-- shall you and I return and put up a REAL fight for them?
4702May I?
4702PAR LES MILLE CORNES DU DIABLE, you t''ink Bateese lie, m''sieu? 4702 Shall we be waiting long?"
4702She is your wife, Audemard, is it possible you do n''t love her?
4702She says that I am to make no effort to leave this bateau-- that I am to be killed if I try to escape? 4702 Somet''ing ver''funny once more, is eet-- w''at?"
4702St. Pierre prefers these-- on occasions,she said,"Do you?"
4702St. Pierre say no man make beeg noise at-- what you call heem-- funeral? 4702 St. Pierre, do you lie?
4702Tell me, did she not fight?
4702Then I am a prisoner? 4702 Then-- you judged her without absolute knowledge of fact?
4702This-- this Roger Audemard-- if you catch him-- what will you do with him?
4702W''at you say, m''sieu?
4702We have moved from the tar- sands?
4702Well, what did you think of it, comrade?
4702What have you done to Marie- Anne-- your wife?
4702What!--You dare talk lak that to Concombre Bateese, w''at is great''st fightin''man on all T''ree River? 4702 When will this man St. Pierre come to see me?"
4702Who is the other?
4702Why are they not camping over here with us?
4702Why do you say''almost''?
4702Why is it impossible?
4702Why is it that you sit in darkness?
4702Why no light over there in the corner, and why sing that death- song to chase away the devil when there is no devil near?
4702Why not En Roulant ma Boule, my sweet Jeanne? 4702 Why not come out squarely, honestly, like men?
4702Why play like little children, M''sieu Carrigan?
4702Why''madame,''when I have given you permission to call me''Marie- Anne''?
4702Will you bring me my pack and clothes in the morning? 4702 Will you eat-- now?"
4702With these?
4702Yes?
4702You are not hurt-- badly?
4702You are surprised? 4702 You believe you are going to hang me?"
4702You had an idea, M''sieu David?
4702You have not gone to bed, m''sieu?
4702You lak ze fight, m''sieu?
4702You love all that, m''sieu?
4702You made them?
4702You mak''guess, eh?
4702You mean that I must make my own guess?
4702You mean?
4702You see somet''ing ver''fonny, m''sieu?
4702You understand, David? 4702 You would do that?"
4702You would stake your life?
4702An''you will w''ip heem, eh, m''sieu?
4702And I am wondering-- after they do happen-- if you will care so very much?"
4702And I''m going to ask you, M''sieu David, will you play square with me?
4702And St. Pierre?
4702And always, day and night, he is asking that same question,''Has any one seen Black Roger Audemard?''
4702And as for a wager--""Yes-- what have you to wager?"
4702And for the first time he asked himself another question, Where was the man, St. Pierre?
4702And had Marie- Anne done that?
4702And he heard again the mad monotone of Andre''s voice, crying plaintively,"HAS ANY ONE SEEN BLACK ROGER AUDEMARD?"
4702And if that was conceivable, what had they done with Marie- Anne?
4702And in his head a voice seemed to cry out to him,"What did Carmin Fanchet ever do to you?"
4702And my men?
4702And on top of that disgrace-- you insist that I pay the wager?"
4702And she did n''t wait to bandage ME up, did she?"
4702And the next?"
4702And then,"Will you light the lamps, M''sieu David?"
4702And tonight-- now-- was she with St. Pierre, waiting as they had waited last night for the rising of the moon?
4702And what did you know about Black Roger Audemard?"
4702And where was Marie- Anne?
4702And you-- in my place-- what would YOU do, m''sieu?"
4702Are you a little glad, Marie- Anne?"
4702Are you coming with me to the proue, m''sieu?"
4702Are you sure she said that?"
4702Are you through questioning me, M''sieu David?
4702But I blame no one, except--""Carmin Fanchet?"
4702But did she know more than that?
4702But what was his own struggle compared with this tragedy which St. Pierre was now facing?
4702But why ask you questions if you wo n''t answer them?"
4702But why that senseless play of falsehood?
4702But why the deuce had n''t she brought up his pack?
4702But why, when she saw his eyes open a little later, had she cried out her gratitude to God?
4702But-- tell me!--Could you see?
4702COULD she forget?
4702Can you guess why?
4702Can you suggest a better way-- between men like you and me?"
4702Did I promise I would not kill you and sink your body to the bottom of the river?
4702Did I say I would let you go?
4702Did she feel that shame as he was feeling it?
4702Did she think he was a scoundrel?
4702Did you ever hear a sweeter or as sweet?
4702Did you ever hear a sweeter voice?"
4702Did you hear?
4702Did you sleep well, M''sieu Carrigan?"
4702Do n''t you know that according to every law of God and man I should arrest you and give you over to the Law?
4702Do n''t you?"
4702Do you agree?"
4702Do you comprehend me, m''sieu?
4702Do you hold anything against her?"
4702Do you recall that I gave you any other guarantee, M''sieu Carrigan?
4702Do you understand, m''sieu?
4702Do you?"
4702Ees it zat?"
4702Eh, coq de bruyere?
4702Eh, shall we mak''ze bargain?"
4702HAS ANY ONE SEEN BLACK ROGER AUDEMARD?"
4702Had Black Roger turned a clever coup by leaving his wife there, while he came on ahead of the bateau with Carmin Fanchet?
4702Had St. Pierre been making a fool of him?
4702Had she been his friend, using all her influence to protect him, because her heart was sick of the environment of which she was a part?
4702Had she forgotten?
4702Have n''t you anything to say?"
4702Have you heard of wan garcon named Joe Clamart, m''sieu?
4702He was silent for a moment, then said,"I raved about a number of things when I was sick, did n''t I?"
4702Hesitate?
4702How do I know?
4702How had Bateese turned the trick?
4702How much did she know?
4702If St. Pierre was Black Roger, why would he confess to that fact simply to pay a wager?
4702If he had in him the desire to kill St. Pierre now, might not St. Pierre have had an equally just desire to kill him?
4702If she believed it, why did she not treat him a bit more considerately?
4702Is it a go?"
4702Is it not possible for a big heart like mine to do that, m''sieu?"
4702Is it not so, m''sieu?
4702Is it not so, m''sieu?"
4702Is it not so?
4702Is it not so?
4702Is it not so?"
4702Is it not so?"
4702Is it possible that you do n''t comprehend my own duty?
4702Is it?"
4702Is n''t that fair?"
4702Is she sleepin''over there-- in the camp?"
4702Is that it, Bateese?"
4702Is that it?
4702Is that not fair?
4702Is this another bit of trickery?"
4702It is not good for you: Bateese, will you tell m''sieu not to talk?"
4702It was-- a joke?"
4702Non?
4702Or ees it zat you grow frighten because ver''soon you stan''up an''fight Concombre Bateese?
4702Or had they struck aside from the trail?
4702Or was it the big bateau rocking under his feet?
4702Or would you rather be alone?"
4702Oui?
4702Pierre?"
4702Pierre?"
4702So what else can I do?
4702Some day when St. Pierre comes, will you teach me how to use them?"
4702Surely you would not break in upon their love- making?"
4702Tell me if I am right?
4702The fury died out of his face, but his great hands remained clenched as he said, for David alone,"That was a playful blow, m''sieu?
4702Then why is it you would be my friend and Roger Audemard''s enemy?
4702Then, as he bent over the sweep with his great back to David, he chuckled audibly, and said:"Would you go, m''sieu?
4702WAS THIS MAN ST. PIERRE?
4702WHY, m''sieu?"
4702WHY?"
4702Was he alone in danger?
4702Was it Bateese, inspired by some sort of malformed humor?
4702Was it fair or honest to destroy her simply because you thought she might be a partner in her brother''s crimes?"
4702Was it possible that St. Pierre Boulain was playing a huge joke on him?
4702Was my head bad?"
4702Was n''t it splendid?"
4702Was not that enough?
4702Wat happen w''en you look t''rough ze glass up there, eh?
4702Were they smiling and offering him their hands, even as they knew he was about to die?
4702What I must do?"
4702What are you going to do next?"
4702What could be their object in wanting him to believe she was still aboard the bateau?
4702What could she have done more terrible than I have done?"
4702What do the Police say about Roger Audemard?"
4702What had worked the sudden transformation in her?
4702What is the matter?"
4702What mad impulse could it be that dragged them still farther into the path of death?
4702What reason could he have for letting him live at all?
4702What terrible thing did she do to you, M''sieu?"
4702What terrible thing did she do to you?
4702What the deuce did it mean?
4702What the deuce did prettiness matter in the present situation?
4702What would he have done in St. Pierre''s place?
4702What would this man, her husband, think and do if he knew that his wife had given up her bedroom to this stranger?
4702What would you do?"
4702Where had Black Roger and the Broken Man gone?
4702Where is St. Pierre, and when shall we see him?"
4702Who was it St. Pierre had called sweetheart?
4702Who was this stranger who was pot- shotting at him with such deadly animosity from the ambush below?
4702Why did your wife try to kill me behind the rock?
4702Why do you hesitate?"
4702Why had Marie- Anne nursed him back to life?
4702Why had not Bateese killed him?
4702Why had she labored to save the life she had so atrociously coveted a minute before?
4702Why you no hit Concombre Bateese, m''sieu?
4702Why, m''sieu?"
4702Why?
4702Why?
4702Will you also promise not to ask me questions, which I can not answer-- until St. Pierre comes?"
4702Will you forgive me-- and accept my gratitude?"
4702Wo n''t you tell me why you shot me, and why that change came over you when you saw me lying there?"
4702Would any other woman in the world have given her hand like that to the man who had helped to kill her brother?"
4702Would she confess to him the secret of that precious moment when she had lain close against his breast, her arms about him, her face pressed to his?
4702Would she reveal EVERYTHING to St. Pierre-- her husband?
4702Would she tell St. Pierre of the many hours they had spent together?
4702Would you care for that?
4702Would you rather put out the lights and go to bed?"
4702You COMPREN''?
4702You hear w''at I say?"
4702You judged her-- as you hinted in your fever-- because she fought so desperately to save a brother who had gone wrong?"
4702You lissen?
4702You listen hard w''at I say?"
4702You love ma belle Jeanne-- Marie- Anne?
4702You threaten me with death?"
4702You understan'', m''sieu agent de police?"
4702You unnerstan''?"
8223And by thee, Clithero? 8223 And come you hither,"he muttered,"for this end?--to recount my offences and drive me again to despair?"
8223Ay,said he;"ye will, will ye?
8223But has any thing since happened to confirm you in this opinion?
8223But how shall I describe the lady''s condition? 8223 But what remained?
8223But whence arose this scene? 8223 But why did you go up- stairs?
8223But why,said I,"should it be impossible to arm myself with firmness?
8223Can you need any proof,I answered,"that it is Edgar Huntly, your pupil, your child, that speaks to you?"
8223Dead? 8223 Did he leave any will by which he directed the disposition of his property?"
8223Did you not inform my lady of this?
8223Famine? 8223 How came you here?"
8223How came you hither? 8223 How?
8223Huntly,said he,"are you mad?
8223Is there any thing particular?
8223Of whom do you speak? 8223 On whom has this property devolved?"
8223Perhaps,said he,"thou canst point out the place of her abode?--canst guide me to the city, the street, the very door of her habitation?"
8223So, you will go, will you, whether I will or no? 8223 To me?"
8223Up- stairs? 8223 What could I think?
8223What is the matter?
8223What kind of property, and to what amount, was your friend possessed of at his death?
8223What mean you? 8223 What was his pursuit?"
8223What,I asked,"did they state the rank or condition of the person to be?"
8223What? 8223 Where,"said I,"is this singular career to terminate?"
8223Who is there? 8223 Whom do you mean?"
8223You do not then suspect who this person is?
8223--"Where did the Indians carry you?"
8223--"Who hurt you?"
8223Above the ford or below it?
8223Am I not justified in drawing certain inferences from your behaviour?
8223And what would be requisite, for that end, but to inform him of the truth?
8223And why should I expatiate on so hateful a scheme?
8223Are you qualified, by your knowledge of his papers, to answer me explicitly?
8223As soon as I perceived who it was, I started, exclaiming,"What is the matter?"
8223At what distance from the river?
8223Because nothing less than indubitable evidence would suffice to convince her?
8223Because our power and our knowledge are confined by impassable boundaries?
8223Because the counter- intimation flowed from an infallible source?
8223Both?"
8223But could not my end be gained without violence?
8223But did not he say that one had escaped?
8223But how should his haunts be discovered?
8223But how was I deceived?
8223But how was Sarsefield apprized that it was I who plunged into the river?
8223But how were these doubts to be changed into absolute certainty?
8223But if this were true, what was the abhorred catastrophe to which I was now reserved?
8223But it suddenly occurred to me, For what purpose shall I prosecute this search?
8223But might he not still live?
8223But suppose we should appeal to law: could this be done without the knowledge and concurrence of the lady?
8223But were they not deceived?
8223But what are the conclusions to be drawn by dispassionate observers?
8223But what had I to fear?
8223But what if the truth of these pretensions be admitted?
8223But what power was it that called me from the sleep of death just in time to escape the merciless knife of this enemy?
8223But what proof had I that the same route would be taken, and that he would again inter himself alive in the same spot?
8223But what tidings were these?
8223But what was he that committed the theft?
8223But what wilt thou think of this new- born claim?
8223But whence arose the subsequent intention?
8223But whence comes he?
8223But who were they by whom my footsteps were so industriously traced?
8223But wrhat is that guilt which no penitence can expiate?
8223But, meanwhile, how am I to account for your appearance on this spot?
8223But, should I ultimately resolve to separate, how should I communicate my purpose?
8223By what means should I introduce a topic so momentous and singular?
8223By what motives could he be impelled to a deed like this?
8223Can I not set bounds to the stream?
8223Can any thing be done for you?"
8223Can it be you?
8223Can not I prevent thee from returning to a consciousness which, till it ceases to exist, will not cease to be rent and mangled?
8223Can you not confide in me?
8223Canst thou not sleep and afford thy unhappy mother some peace?
8223Clithero?
8223Could I consent to be the author of disquietude to her?
8223Could I not anticipate their assault by casting myself without delay into the stream?
8223Could I not elude the necessity of shedding more blood?
8223Could I not escape, unperceived, and without alarming the sleepers, from this cavern?
8223Could I not restore a mind thus vigorous, to tranquil and wholesome existence?
8223Could I not subdue his perverse disdain and immeasurable abhorrence of himself?
8223Could he blend any more lucrative pursuit with his duty as a schoolmaster?"
8223Could he have executed his design in the deepest of its recesses?
8223Could it be?
8223Could law be resorted to?
8223Could not I at least bring his pangs to a speedy close?
8223Could not some advantage be taken of his absence?
8223Could not this opportunity be seized for making my escape?
8223Could she arrive at a knowledge of his miserable and by other than verbal means?
8223Could some witness of his death have brought her tidings of it?
8223Could the savages have been interrupted in their work, and obliged to leave their vengeance unfinished?
8223Did you entertain any imagination of so frightful a catastrophe?
8223Did you not say Clithero was dead?"
8223Did you penetrate the wall?
8223Did you rise through the floor?
8223Do I intend the injury of this person?
8223Does he yet crawl upon the face of the earth?
8223For what purpose have I come hither?
8223Had I not been dragged hither by these savages and reduced, by their malice, to that breathless and insensible condition?
8223Had I not extended my search to the neighbouring groves and precipices?
8223Had I not pored upon the brooks, and pried into the pits and hollows, that were adjacent to the scene of blood?
8223Had I reached the brink of the same precipice and been thrown headlong into that vacuity?
8223Had he penetrated, unexpected and unlicensed, to her chamber?
8223Had it not been a hundred times examined?
8223Had not Clithero''s remorse been more than adequate to crimes far more deadly and enormous than this?
8223Had not Indians, I asked, been lately seen in this neighbourhood?
8223Had not Sarsefield said that he was married?
8223Had not my fusil been found in the hands of an enemy?
8223Had not rumour whispered that the captive was retaken?
8223Had not the cause of my being cast into this abyss some connection with the ruin of my family?
8223Had she already endured his agonies, and like him already ceased to breathe?
8223Had some mysterious power snatched me from the earth, and cast me, in a moment, into the heart of the wilderness?
8223Had they not already committed some mischief?
8223Had they wholly disappeared, and meant they not to return?
8223Had two days and a half been consumed in my subterranean prison?
8223Has he dared to utter names so sacred as those of Euphemia Lorimer and Clarice?"
8223Has he fooled thee with such tales?"
8223Has he told his execrable falsehoods here?
8223Has he told you this?"
8223Has she not predicted the event?
8223Have no letters, with my signature, been found?
8223Have this woman and her daughter lighted on the shore haunted by this infernal and implacable enemy?"
8223Have you forgotten, have you ceased to love me?"
8223Have you set eyes upon him?
8223Have you so soon forgotten me, who is truly your friend?"
8223Having perceived these tokens of a state less hopeless than I at first imagined, I spoke to him:--"My friend, how do you feel?
8223He has called himself unhappy?
8223He noticed my movement, and, turning towards me, spoke in a tone of some resentment:--"Why did you deceive me?
8223How came you hither, and why?"
8223How can the latter supposition be confuted?
8223How can they be otherwise?
8223How could I hesitate?
8223How did they evade the destroying hatchet and the midnight conflagration?
8223How have I discharged the measureless debt of gratitude to which she is entitled?
8223How may he exert the parental prerogatives?
8223How otherwise could I act?
8223How shall I communicate the tidings?
8223How shall I demean myself when the criminal is detected?
8223How shall I enter upon this theme?
8223How should Clithero be unacquainted with its situation, since none but Clithero could have dug for it this grave?
8223How should I account for an intrusion so unexampled and audacious?
8223How should I attempt to reason with him?
8223How should I convince him that, since the death of Wiatte was not intended, the deed was without crime?
8223How should I explain my coming hither in this murderous guise, my arm lifted to destroy the idol of my soul and the darling child of my patroness?
8223How was I to consider this act of Clithero?
8223How, then, came he to amass so much money?
8223How, then, should I account for them?
8223Huntly?
8223I am as well acquainted with what is passing in your heart as you yourself are: but why are you so anxious to conceal it?
8223I could not but assent to this mournful conclusion: yet, though death was better to Clithero than life, could not some of his mistakes be rectified?
8223I had fallen from a height; but if that height had been considerable, instead of being merely bruised, should I not have been dashed into pieces?
8223I have no power to detain you?
8223I have no solicitude about concealment; but who is there who will derive pleasure or benefit from my rehearsal?
8223I hesitated for an answer; but the voice instantly continued, in the manner of one half asleep and enraged at being disturbed,"Is''t you, Peg?
8223I looked eagerly into the face of my friend, and exclaimed, in a dubious accent,"How say you?
8223I should, no doubt, be safe by remaining in this nook; but might not some means be pursued to warn others of their danger?
8223I took his hand, and, affectionately pressing it, said,"Do you not know me?
8223I was feeble, indeed; but, by remaining here, should I not increase my feebleness?
8223If consequences arise that can not be foreseen, shall we find no refuge in the persuasion of our rectitude and of human frailty?
8223If he did, and could again be discovered, should I resolve to undertake a new pursuit, which might terminate abortively, or in some signal disaster?
8223If my destruction had not been decreed, why was the image of Clarice so long excluded?
8223If she, indeed, were there, would not my intrusion awaken her?
8223If the imagination of her death was not to be supported, how should I bear the spectacle of wounds and blood?
8223In a space so short, was it possible that so tremendous a deed had been executed?
8223In that case, how should I conduct myself?
8223In what circumstances could I possibly be placed, from which every particle of light should, by other means, be excluded?
8223In what manner should they be received?
8223In what way could I tell it to her?
8223In what way would this effect be produced?
8223In what words should I unfold the tale of Wiatte, and enumerate the motives that terminated in the present scene?
8223In your passage to the river, had it once more fallen into hostile hands?
8223Is it not possible for some letters to have been mislaid?"
8223Is it possible to regard this person with disdain or with enmity?
8223Is it to relate my story?
8223Is it wise to undertake experiments by which nothing can be gained, and much may be lost?
8223Is such the lot of those who wander from their rustic homes in search of fortune?
8223Is the madman here?
8223Is the province assigned me that of an infernal emissary, whose efforts are concentred in a single purpose, and that purpose a malignant one?
8223Is there not a good that I can do thee?
8223Kill the brother whose existence was interwoven with that of his benefactress and his friend?
8223Know you any thing to the contrary?
8223Lamenting and upbraiding the absence of her brother?
8223Lift a dagger to destroy her who had been the author of his being and his happiness?
8223Married?
8223Might I not relieve her from her bonds, and make her the companion of my flight?
8223Might he not vanish, as he had done on the former day, and afford me no time to assail his constancy and tempt his hunger?
8223Might not these weapons be seized, and some provision be thus made against the danger of meeting him without, or of being pursued?
8223Must I perpetrate unmingled evil?
8223My doom was ratified by powers which no human energies can counterwork.--Need I go further?
8223My task is almost executed; but whence shall I obtain strength enough to finish it?
8223Nay, has he not borne his part in the destruction of my uncle and my sisters?
8223Nay, might not the discoveries I should make throw light upon the conduct of this extraordinary man which his own narrative had withheld?
8223Need I remind you of a late disaster?
8223Of the mother of Clarice?
8223On which side of the river had their steps been observed or any devastation been committed?
8223Once more I asked, Who was his assassin?
8223Or is there a criterion by which truth can always be distinguished?
8223Pray, what was his new way of business?"
8223Remorse?
8223Shall I calmly sit here, and rehearse the incidents of my life?
8223Shall we deem ourselves criminal because we do not enjoy the attributes of Deity?
8223Shall we impute guilt where there is no design?
8223Should I fire, or suffer him to pass in safety?
8223Should I not discharge it, and, at the same moment, rush forward to secure the road which my adversary''s death would open to me?
8223Should I not rush into the stream, and still aim at reaching my uncle''s house before morning?
8223Should I remain in this hovel till the morning, or immediately resume my journey?
8223Some passenger, perhaps, had been attacked, or fire had been set to some house?
8223Still, however, some remnant was left; would it not enable me to reach my home by nightfall?
8223That brother whose latter days were so ardently devoted to cherishing the spirit of devotion in thy heart?
8223That emotions will not be reawakened by my narrative, incompatible with order and coherence?
8223That he perished in a mutiny on board the vessel in which he was embarked for transportation?"
8223That it happened beneath the shade of this tree?
8223That the incidents I am going to relate can be recalled and arranged without indistinctness and confusion?
8223That the pulses of life are at the command of the will?
8223The better part of me was, then, safe: but how did they escape the fate that overtook my uncle?
8223The inference was just, that the man, half clothed and digging, was a sleeper; but what was the cause of this morbid activity?
8223The past, however deplorable, could not be recalled; but could not I afford some relief to this wretch?
8223The sister of Wiatte?
8223The sister of the ruffian who laid snares for her life?
8223The sound of my voice made him start and exclaim,"Am I alive?
8223Then hasten to her chamber, and attempt her life?
8223There scarcely remained a doubt; but still my expiring hope prompted me to inquire,"To whom did the house belong?"
8223This in some degree accounted for appearances: but where were your arms?
8223This, neither duty nor curiosity would permit to be overlooked or delayed; but why should my whole attention and activity be devoted to this man?
8223Thus!--"Can not my guilt be extenuated?
8223To dissipate the doubts which obstinately clung to my imagination respecting it?
8223To make thy brother the instrument of thy apostasy, the author of thy fall?
8223To what new danger might I be exposed in remaining thus guideless and destitute of all defence?
8223To whom?"
8223Unhappy?
8223Was I born to a malignant destiny never tired of persecuting?
8223Was I not deceived by some portentous vision?
8223Was I still in the vicinity of my parental habitation, or was I thousands of miles distant?
8223Was I, then, shut up in the same cavern?
8223Was Mrs. Lorimer so speedily forgotten by him, or was the narrative of Clithero the web of imposture or the raving of insanity?
8223Was his purpose to explore or to hide?
8223Was it Huntly?
8223Was it I that hurried to the deed?
8223Was it a grave that he was digging?
8223Was it impossible to rescue her?
8223Was it likely that this unknown person would repeat his midnight visits to the elm?
8223Was it likely the enemy would coast along the edge of the steep?
8223Was it not in my power to avert it?
8223Was it not inhuman to desert him in this extremity?
8223Was it not now given me to investigate the truth of that stupendous tale?
8223Was it not our duty to rectify this error?
8223Was it not possible to ascertain the truth in this respect?
8223Was it not possible, I asked, to reach the top of this pit?
8223Was it right to proceed?
8223Was it to this extremity of horror that my evil genius was determined to urge me?
8223Was it wise to defer the scrutiny till then?
8223Was not any thing easy to endure in comparison with the agonies of suspense?
8223Was not the purloiner of my treasure and the wanderer the same person?
8223Was not this the lover of Mrs. Lorimer, the object of the persecutions of Wiatte?
8223Was not this the man whom Clithero had robbed of his friend?
8223Was she not a mangled corpse?
8223Was the contingency to be lamented in consequence of which an interview had been avoided?
8223Was the latter sent to enforce the interdictions which had been formerly imposed?
8223Was there a league between her and the plunderers whom I had encountered?
8223Was there no more connection between them than that which results from time?
8223Was there reason to confide implicitly on the tale which I had heard?
8223Was there some connection between this purpose and the incidents of my vision?
8223Was this a new instance of the subtlety of mind?
8223Weeping over the untimely fall of her protector and her friend?
8223Were any of the inhabitants murdered?
8223Were his designs frustrated?
8223Were my hands imbrued in this precious blood?
8223Were these the permanent inhabitants of this region, or were they wanderers and robbers?
8223Were they linked together by a sympathy whose influence was independent of sensible communication?
8223Were they not suspected of hostile designs?
8223Were we not assured of his death?
8223What am I to think?
8223What and where was Deb''s hut?
8223What are the effects of your misguided zeal and random efforts?
8223What are you doing?"
8223What benefit am I to reap from this discovery?
8223What but the murder of Waldegrave could direct his steps hither?
8223What but this solution ought to have been suggested by the conduct I had witnessed in Clithero?
8223What could I do?
8223What could I expect to find?
8223What could I infer from this scanty garb, this chilling atmosphere, this stony bed?
8223What could I less than turn the dagger''s point against my own bosom?
8223What could be the grounds of this new scheme?
8223What could be the inducements of this person to betake himself to subterranean retreats?
8223What could be the necessity of hiding them from her?
8223What could hence be predicted but that the band would start on their feet and level their unerring pieces at my head?
8223What did he seek, or what endeavour to conceal, in this fatal spot?
8223What does vengeance desire but to inflict misery?
8223What dungeon or den had received me, and by whose command was I transported hither?
8223What effect will they produce?
8223What end could it answer?
8223What explication was more obvious?
8223What had I done?
8223What had become of my boasted gratitude?
8223What has filled you with these hideous prepossessions?
8223What influence might these events have upon the gloomy meditations of Clithero?
8223What is it that you have to propose?"
8223What is the matter with you?
8223What is the recompense that I have made?
8223What is to be done?"
8223What might not be dreaded from the interview?
8223What might not be dreaded from the monstrous depravity of Wiatte?
8223What motive could I assign for my conduct?
8223What need is there of tedious preliminaries?
8223What of consolation or of hope remained to me?
8223What offence had he committed that deserved such implacable vengeance?
8223What penalty had not my infatuation and cruelty deserved?
8223What remained but to precipitate my flight?
8223What remained to convert tormenting doubt into ravishing certainty?
8223What remained?
8223What should I think?
8223What then remained?
8223What then?
8223What was I hence to infer respecting the person of the last possessor?
8223What was I to do?
8223What was my condition when I fell asleep?
8223What was now to be done?
8223What was the motive of your search in the desert, and how were you apprized of my condition?
8223What was the mournful vision that dissolved him in tears, and extorted from him tokens of inconsolable distress?
8223What was the name?
8223What was the subject of discourse between them?
8223What were the limits of his power?
8223What will become of us?
8223What would you have me to do?
8223What, at that moment, was her condition?
8223When?
8223Whence and how came he hither?
8223Whence could he have plundered it but from my own chamber?
8223Whence else could arise the bruises which I had received, but from my fall?
8223Where did she now abide?
8223Where is he now?
8223Where was this series of hardships and perils to end?
8223Whither had it gone, and by whom was it purloined?
8223Who knows not the cogency of faith?
8223Who pursued you and the unhappy Clithero with the bitterest animosity?"
8223Who shall affirm that the persuasion is a groundless one?
8223Who was the merchant on whom your bill was drawn, what was the date of it, and when did the bill and its counterparts arrive?"
8223Who would have predicted his future conduct?
8223Who would have sought me in the bowels of this mountain?
8223Who would not have affirmed the impossibility of an action like this?
8223Whom he had seen perish in the current of the Delaware?
8223Whom he had sought in every thicket and cave in the ample circuit of Norwalk and Chetasco?
8223Whom shall I call in to aid me in this arduous task?"
8223Why are you up so early?"
8223Why did I linger on the verge?
8223Why not demand a conference, and state my doubts, and demand a solution of them, in a manner worthy of a beneficent purpose?
8223Why not hasten to the spot?
8223Why not instantly investigate the truth?
8223Why scruple to adopt the former mode?
8223Why should I delay?
8223Why should I make her miserable?
8223Why should I proceed like a plotter?
8223Why should I procrastinate my doom and strive to render my burden more light?
8223Why should I survive this calamity?
8223Why should I trust my story to mother?
8223Why should he be suffered to live?
8223Why should his miseries be uselessly prolonged?
8223Why should the effects of our misdeeds be inexhaustible?
8223Why should we be debarred from a comforter?
8223Why was not some intimation afforded me of the snares that lay in my path?
8223Why were you still invisible?
8223Why, thus perilously situated, did I not throw myself headlong?
8223Why?
8223Will my strength be adequate to this rehearsal?
8223Would it be just to expose thee to pollution and depravity from this source?
8223Would it have compelled me to explain the broken condition of his trunk?
8223Would not any one, from similar appearances, have drawn similar conclusions?
8223Would not their projectures and abruptnesses serve me as steps by which I might ascend in safety?
8223Would not this procedure bear the appearance of the basest ingratitude?
8223Would they ramble hither to look upon the ample scene which spread on all sides around the base of this rocky pinnacle?
8223Yet am I sure that even now my perturbations are sufficiently stilled for an employment like this?
8223Yet who could foresee this consequence of my intelligence?
8223Yet why do I say long?
8223You will regard nothing that I can say?"
8223am I awake?
8223and to what dangers might you not be exposed before you could disinvolve yourself from the mazes of this wilderness?
8223and were these the effects produced by the intelligence?
8223he cried,"is this a dream?
8223my lady''s brother?"
8223or had you missed the way, wandered to this promontory, and mistaken a troop of friends for a band of Indian marauders?
8223or was he maniac, or walker in his sleep?
8223said I:"what is his mode of subsistence?
8223said he, in a tone of anxiety:"are you not well?"
8223that Euphemia Lorimer is now alive, is happy, is the wife of Sarsefield?
8223that her brother is forgotten and his murderer regarded without enmity or vengeance?"
8223that when he pointed a dagger at the bosom of his mistress he was actuated, not by avarice, or ambition, or revenge, or malice?
8223that, if it had been deliberately concerted, it was still a virtue, since his own life could by no other means be preserved?
8223what is this?
8223what proofs am I to credit?"
8223who was her angel of deliverance?
20418All?
20418An''in the name of the seven wonders of creation, what for would you be getting down?
20418An''wa''d ye have me expose the head of a mitherless bairn to a''the clack o''the auld geese in the settlement? 20418 An''who''s talking of killin'', ye young cut- throat?
20418And did they,I cried, in spite of the injunction,"did they do that to you?"
20418And have the whole pack of them sneaking after us? 20418 And how can I strike a man who saved my life?"
20418And pray, Sir, what might''bunk''mean?
20418And she could n''t be lost in Charlesbourg forest?
20418And the stone?
20418And there was an Indian encampment a few yards down the road?
20418And was my little Eric at the hunt, and did he shoot an arrow all by himself?
20418And what are the capers of this, my beast, compared to the antics of fate, Sir Priest?
20418And what did I say about Frances?
20418And where do you go?
20418And why is that tent apart from the rest and who is in it?
20418And womankind?
20418And you forgive all? 20418 And you''re quite sure she is n''t in the house?"
20418And----"And what?
20418Are n''t you coming? 20418 Are there no dark halls in there, unsafe for you?"
20418Are they with you? 20418 Are they with you?"
20418Are those buffalo, Black Cat?
20418Are ye Rufus Gillespie?
20418Are you Gillespie?
20418Are you among the prophets?
20418Are you cold, now?
20418Are you hurt, and at such a time?
20418Are you ill, man?
20418Are you men back? 20418 Are you men looking for trouble?"
20418Are you mooning after the Little Statue already?
20418Are you possessed?
20418Are you sure you''ll be safe?
20418Are you sure you''re safe?
20418Are you there?
20418Are you tired, Frances?
20418Are-- they-- with-- you?
20418Art satisfied?
20418Aye-- is it Frances y''r speerin''after?
20418Bad men?
20418Bag him, eh?
20418Be still-- you what?
20418Because they saw you with me?
20418Because----"Because what?
20418Burning hay- ricks?
20418But it did n''t succeed?
20418But the Citadel paper?
20418But the road, Eric?
20418By Jove, Hamilton, we need it, do n''t we?
20418Call that hard luck?
20418Certainly we are, but get this truck to higher ground, will you?
20418Colin Robertson-- the Nor''-Wester?
20418Could n''t they have gone down the road to those Indian encampments?
20418Crying?
20418Dear love-- wherever are you?
20418Did I rive ye sore, lad?
20418Did I strike somebody? 20418 Did I strike somebody?"
20418Did that spring up all of a sudden?
20418Did the little wifie let him off for a night''s play?
20418Did they torture you?
20418Did ye ever-- did ever ye see such a little termagant, such a persuasive, commanding little queen of a termagant?
20418Did you really expect him back alive from the Bloods?
20418Do I?
20418Do my eyes tell lies? 20418 Do n''t you know?"
20418Do you find the way very far-- Frances?
20418Do you know where he is?
20418Do you need to ask with such a galaxy of nut- brown maidens?
20418Do you really mean it? 20418 Do you really want to know how?"
20418Do you think the_ Bois- Brulés_ would plunder your boats?
20418Do-- with-- him?
20418Do_ I_ scent matrimony?
20418Eagles, are they?
20418Eh?
20418Eric Hamilton, are you mad?
20418Faith, now, what might they all be doing with stars for diadems? 20418 For anything else?"
20418For the trial of cases occurring?
20418Friend, or foe?
20418From whom?
20418Game scarce on MacKenzie River?
20418Gillespie, man, what''s wrong? 20418 Had him in your power-- knew what he''d done-- and-- and-- didn''t?"
20418Hang it,drawled Colonel Adderly, a squatty man with an over- fed look on his bulging, red cheeks,"hang it, you do n''t expect Hamilton?
20418Has any one seen Eric Hamilton?
20418Has your Lordship some colonization scheme that you ask such pointed questions?
20418Have I been here for months?
20418Have n''t many brethren come from the same tribe more like warped branches than men? 20418 Have the Indians passed, or are they to come?"
20418Have they been making ladders?
20418Have ye as much as got a glint of her eye to- day?
20418Have ye no seen Frances?
20418Have you-- oh-- have you?
20418He is coming?
20418He''d let you hear about it to all eternity, too, would n''t he?
20418Help you up?
20418Hoo are ye, gillie?
20418Hoo are ye, gillie?
20418How are you going to get''em to her?
20418How can I, Louis Laplante, son of a seigneur, strike a man who wo n''t hit back?
20418How could we know that Selkirk would purchase controlling interest in Hudson''s Bay stock? 20418 How did you reach Fort Gibraltar?"
20418How do you know he''s a spy?
20418How do you know?
20418How far,I began, with a curious inability to use my wits and tongue,"how far-- I mean how long have I been asleep, sir?"
20418How stands the hour- glass?
20418How strong are the Mandanes?
20418How''s the cold in your head?
20418Hudson''s Bay been tampering with your Indians? 20418 Hudson''s Bay, or Nor''-Wester?"
20418I beg your pardon, gentlemen,said I,"what were you saying to Colonel Adderly?"
20418I have had?
20418I say,called one, who had been dazed by the splendor,"how do you tell which is the lookin''glass and which is the window?"
20418I say,exclaimed a man joining the group,"d''y''hear the news?
20418If you meant to stay at the fort, why did n''t you decide sooner?
20418Interesting and delightful?
20418Is Diable among them?
20418Is Diable here?
20418Is Eric sleepy?
20418Is Mr. Sutherland an H. B. C. or Nor''-Wester?

20418Is that the tribe?
20418Is that true about the Indian kidnapping a woman?
20418Is that true?

20418Looks thin, does n''t he? 20418 Lots of confidential talks with her, I suppose?"
20418Louis,I commanded, utterly out of patience,"what of Miriam?
20418Louis,said I, trying to fathom the meaning of his wink,"are those Indians to come yet?"
20418Mane it?
20418Marry!--What?
20418May I not come?
20418Miriam, what has happened?
20418Mr. Sutherland,I cried, with all the impatience of a child,"please tell me, where is your daughter?"
20418My devil, or yours?
20418No?
20418No?
20418Nor''-Wester, but what does that matter? 20418 Not a word for y''rself?"
20418Not know what?
20418Now, Louis, what do you mean by this nonsense?
20418Now, how shall I pay you?
20418O Uncle MacKenzie,said I with a wry face,"do you measure your own wine so?"
20418Oh, is it only you? 20418 Only wisdom?"
20418Out of your reckoning already?
20418Out wid y''r nonsense, and what good are y''thinkin''ye''ll do--? 20418 Pay me?"
20418Please see if they fit, Sir? 20418 Rufus,"he whispered softly,"where are they taking me?"

20418We do n''t display our little amours----"No,broke in the other,"we just display our little contours and get snubbed, eh?"
20418Well, Gillespie, when you take yours up, take mine along, too, will you? 20418 Well,"said I, with a laugh, which surprised the rascals mightily,"now you''ve captured your elephant, what do you propose to do with him?"
20418Well?
20418Well?
20418Well?
20418Were a few Nor''-Westers so successful in holding back the Metis at Seven Oaks, you''d like to see that experiment repeated?

20418What are these carvings, may I inquire, Sir?
20418What are ye doin''here?
20418What are you doing yourself? 20418 What are you going to do with him?"
20418What are you going to do with the settlers, Cuthbert?

20418What? 20418 What?"
20418What?
20418What_ are_ ladies- and- gentlemen?
20418Whatever-- was that? 20418 When may I see her, Sir?"
20418When may I see her?
20418Where are your Indians?
20418Where can Hamilton be?
20418Where did you come from? 20418 Where did you find it?"
20418Where did you see her?
20418Where do the men come from?
20418Where is Gillespie?
20418Where is Miriam? 20418 Where is Miriam?"
20418Where to, Paul?
20418Where''s Eric Hamilton?
20418Where''s Hamilton? 20418 Where''s Hamilton?"

20418Who is that?
20418Who should know better than you? 20418 Who''s afraid, Black Cat?
20418Why did he say that?
20418Why did you lie to them?
20418Why do n''t you answer?
20418Why else do I hide you in my tent? 20418 Why not leave them in the fort till things quiet down?"
20418Why, Gillespie,called a voice,"what in the world are you doing here?"
20418Why?
20418Will he be back?
20418With all the Indians of Red River in possession of that fort?
20418With what?
20418With you?
20418Ye blunder- busticus, ye, what have ye been doing?
20418Yes, do n''t you know you''ve been talking in torrents for the past ten minutes? 20418 Yes-- why?
20418You are going for Miriam?
20418You coming too?
20418You got away too quick for them?
20418You know I lie to you in the gorge?
20418You know what that lie mean--and he hesitated--"mean to her-- to Miriam?"
20418You, Gillespie?
20418You? 20418 Your daughter is not at home?"
20418_ Manus habent, et non palpabunt; pedes_----"Is Gillespie here?
20418_ Similes illis fiant qui faciunt ea_----"Some one here before us?
20418_ Us?_she asked.
20418_ Voilà, Monsieur?_said the_ habitant_, which made four words for that day.
20418***** Need I say what door opened, what hands drew me in and chafed life into the benumbed being?
20418*****"How can I thank you for what you have done?"
20418Am I going mad?
20418Am I to believe that?"
20418An''ye claver sic''nonsense when ye''re daft, what would ye say when ye''re sane?
20418And did she flare back at me?
20418And do you know, Rufus, I never could thank you all?
20418And the Sioux did not eat you by inches, beginning with your thumbs?
20418And the fellows''ve got to stretch their necks to come up to her ideas of what''s proper, that''s why she''s a stature, ai n''t it?
20418And what else, indeed?
20418And what were they decreeing?
20418Are there any bleeding hearts in the bush?"
20418Are they ahead?
20418Are they with you?"
20418Are we playing jest is earnest, or earnest is jest?"
20418Are you getting the bench?"
20418Are you mad?"
20418Are you mad?"
20418Besides, was I not returning to one who was peerless?
20418But sisters do mending, do n''t they?"

20418Ca n''t you borrow one from the Indians?
20418Call all even?"
20418Can I do anything to repay you for your trouble in bringing me here?"
20418Can any man blame me for breaking through the thicket and my resolution and discretion and all?
20418Can you go as trader for your people?
20418Can_ you_ see anything up there?"
20418Carpe Diem!_""What is_ Carpe Diem_?"
20418Could I foresee that simple act of mine was to let loose all the punishment the Hudson''s Bay had been heaping up against the day of judgment?
20418Cursing the burdens, yourselves have bound, In a maze of wants, running round and round-- Are ye free men, or manniken slaves?
20418D''y''hear?
20418Did Little Fellow doubt their word?
20418Did Louis act from the love of acting and trickery and intrigue?
20418Did she not bind the white woman?
20418Did she not drag me over the ground like a dead stag?
20418Did she not slay La Robe Noire?
20418Did she not slay the white man before Monsieur''s eyes?
20418Did the Nor''-Wester and I hesitate, and look from the man to the dagger, and from the dagger to the man; or is this an evil dream from a black past?
20418Did you find out anything?"
20418Did you find this--"indicating the spear handle--"there?"
20418Did you hear anything special in the fort that night?"
20418Did you see it?"
20418Do I understand ye clearly, there''s no prisoners with ye?"
20418Do n''t you know any of them?"
20418Do you forget?"
20418Do you hear any one calling for help?
20418Do you hear anything?
20418Do you hear the bells?
20418Do you know, you baggage, that you are delaying this young man in a matter that is of life- and- death importance?
20418Do you raise the tomahawk, or pipe of peace?
20418Do you remember how you saved my life twice from the Sioux, Louis?"
20418Do you think Father Holland would take''em up?"
20418Do you think I stay here for nothing?
20418Do you think I was old Cam''s private secretary for nothin''?
20418Does the physician justify medical experiments on the criminal, or the sacrificial priest the driving of the scape- goat into the wilderness?
20418Drunk is he?"
20418Eh?
20418For the Lord''s sake, boy, do you expect to find the woman by believing in that bloated bugaboo?"
20418For the sake of the old days, Louis, help to undo the wrong you allowed?
20418For them, what motive but to vindicate their bravery?
20418For was it not written in my inner consciousness that destiny had appointed me to the wild, free life of the north?
20418For what was he coming to Red River in this warlike fashion?
20418Had I not dared all?
20418Had I not read, or heard, of departed spirits hovering near loved ones?
20418Had I, by some strange irony, been led to this spot that I might witness the death of my foe?
20418Had I, too, lost grip of reality; or was she in distress calling for me?
20418Had any one come and driven her to the city?
20418Had he gone to keep secret guard over the priest, or to decoy the vigilant Sioux woman?
20418Had he incriminated Diable to save himself?
20418Had he lied?
20418Had my jerk disturbed whatever it was and sent it rolling down to mid- current?
20418Had not these men gone north young and full of hope, as I was going?
20418Had she known of our efforts at all?
20418Had we not more to fear from living?
20418Had_ Monsieur_ examined the clearing between the house and the forest?
20418Hamilton,"exclaimed Uncle Jack MacKenzie, who was facing Eric as I came up behind,"have you been in a race or a fight?"
20418Hamilton?"
20418Hamilton?"
20418Hast Thou no pity?
20418Hast Thou no pity?
20418Have n''t I spent my life among them?
20418Have you brought the tribe as you promised?"
20418Have you more of that kind?"
20418Here were close- fitted boards-- here, iron- lining-- this must be the gate; but where was the lantern that hung behind?
20418How came it that I was in the woods slushing through damp mold up to my ankles in black ooze?
20418How came it that a Catholic priest lay under a Protestant roof?
20418How can I tell how long I hung there?
20418How could we know he''d secure a land grant in the very heart of our domain?"
20418How d''y''know we''re not here to warn ye about the fort?
20418How did you get away?
20418How did you know I was there?"
20418How do I know?
20418How far by the Beauport road?"
20418How long since you left the Sioux?"
20418How many men have made that vow regarding the woman they love?
20418How many more half- breeds were beneath that cliff?
20418How shall I pay you?"
20418I ca n''t stand the sisterly business, Frances----""Have you suffered much from the sisterly?"
20418I cried, exasperated with myself,"Where''s Fort Gibraltar?
20418I exclaimed, rounding him back from the hill,"Ca n''t you stop this nonsense and sit still for only two days more, or must I tie you up?
20418I run forward, I find Le Petit Garçon-- how you call him?--Leetle Fellow?
20418I see where it ought to be, where the towers ought to be higher than that brush, but where''s the fort?"
20418I thank you-- Father Holland-- is it not?
20418If the Indians had such fear, why had this band camped within a mile of the pest tent?
20418If the worst happened and I were captured, had I the courage to endure Indian tortures?
20418If they wo n''t take our boats to the States, or Canada, what else can Nor''-Westers do?"
20418Is it to be peace or war?
20418Is it you or your ghost?"
20418Is language for the use of man, or man for the use of language?"
20418Is no this fine?
20418Is that a child crying?"
20418Is that woman Miriam?"
20418Is the Indian less brave than the pale face?"
20418Is this Thy pity?
20418Joke-- ain''t it?"
20418Lah Grawnd Deeahble,"and he mouthed over our mispronunciation of his own tongue"Joke, is n''t it?"
20418Lord, boy, why did n''t ye stay with that peppery Scotchman?
20418May it please Her Majesty to grant a token to her leal and devoted knight----""What is thy request?"
20418Me hearty, but what was that?"
20418Miriam, the guiltless, was suffering at his hands; should not he, the guilty, suffer at ours?
20418Must not she do the same?
20418My God, men, how can I tell you?
20418Need I say the voice brought me to my feet at one leap?
20418No-- no-- and we''ve been hunting house and garden for hours----""And the forest?"
20418No?
20418Noo, d''ye no hear the clack o''the geese through yon open window?"
20418Now, Rufus, where are your men?
20418Now, what was there in those replies to cause happiness?
20418Now, who''s appointed to trade with the buffalo hunters but y''r very self?"
20418Of course, I should have gone----""And would it have mended matters if you''d been held hostage too?"
20418Pray, who is he?"
20418Putting out his hand he said--"Is it all right with us again, Rufus, old man?"
20418Quick, Miriam, will you try?"
20418Raising his brows in question, Mr. Jack MacKenzie touched his forehead and whispered across to me--"Mad?"
20418Say, babe, why do n''t y''r fill y''r hat with''em and put''em in her tent?"
20418Say, great chief of the Mandanes, what is thy answer?"
20418Shall I whistle for them?"
20418Shall not a sparrow fall to the ground without Thy knowledge?
20418Shall we be friends or enemies?
20418She do n''t pay more attention to you than if you wuz a stump, that''s why she''s a statue, ai n''t it?
20418She may be drown;"whispered Louis,"but we creep on, quiet like hare, no noise like deer, stiller than mountain cat, hist-- what that?"
20418Should I make the final, desperate dash now?
20418Should I wait to be smoked out of my hole, like a badger, or a raccoon?
20418Simpleton-- you think Louis a fool?"
20418Sounds funny in this desert, do n''t it?"
20418Surely you do n''t treasure any grudge yet?"
20418Sutherland?"
20418THE PRIEST JOURNEYS TO A FAR COUNTRY 433 LORDS OF THE NORTH CHAPTER I WHEREIN A LAD SEES MAKERS OF HISTORY"Has any one seen Eric Hamilton?"
20418Tell me this instant, what do you want?"
20418Tell us, what doth the Mandane offer for the blood of the young man?
20418That post, too, might be destroyed; but where were Hamilton and Father Holland?
20418That was true; for had not forty- eight hours passed since I had regained consciousness and I had heard neither her footsteps nor her voice?
20418That''s the way of it, is it?"
20418That''s why she''s a statute, ai n''t it?"
20418The pulpit silenced-- though that''s a big contract-- mankind labeled, what for women?"
20418The water''s shallow there----""What do_ you_ think?"
20418Then, why had Diable rescued his betrayer?
20418To the buffalo hunt first, then, south?
20418Too well I read the signs and knew the summons; and what can love, or gratitude, do in the presence of that summons?
20418Torture, burning, or the cool wash of a black wave gurgling over one''s head?
20418Want them all, Eric?"
20418Was I a part of the new happiness?
20418Was Miriam within range of those smoke signals?
20418Was he befooling the daughter of L''Aigle, or me?
20418Was it a beaver, or my Indian pursuers?
20418Was it old Cameron?"
20418Was it the apprehension of fear, or the buzzing in my ears, that suggested the faint, far- away echo of a clamoring multitude?
20418Was it the influence of this slip of a girl, I wonder, that a curious change came over our crews?
20418Was it the wind, or a low sigh, or a silent weeping, that I heard?
20418Was that the lad I had known?
20418Was the Sioux squaw from the other lodge listening?
20418Was the Sioux wife with her white slave really in the north country, or was she near, and did that explain my morose Iroquois''all- night vigils?
20418Was the apparition in the Mandane lodge some portent?
20418Was the fellow really delirious?
20418Was the man spying on me?
20418Was the policy, that ended so tragically a year afterwards, adopted at this meeting?
20418Was there smoke of battle?
20418Was this Miriam?
20418Was this Miriam?
20418Was this an illusion, or was I, too, going mad?
20418Was this the end of that long career of evil?
20418Was this the_ avant- courier_ of the Hudson''s Bay, delayed, like ourselves, by the storm?
20418Watched?
20418We had befooled Louis into a betrayal of his associates but how much reliance could be placed on that betrayal?
20418We had cheated Laplante; but had he in turn cheated us?
20418We had had a victory; but how long would it last?
20418Well then, why the deuce did n''t you go, and knock the head off anything that opposed you?"
20418Were those_ Carpe Diem_ flowers?"
20418Were you drunk, or were you not?
20418What about Frances?"
20418What am I, that I should escape?
20418What are they doing?"
20418What are you scared of?"
20418What can I do?"
20418What can you, one man, do against two thousand Sioux?"
20418What care Louis Laplante for the fire?
20418What care Louis for repents?
20418What care Louis for wounds and cuts and threats?
20418What could be keeping him?
20418What d''y''mane, scarin''the breath out of a body and blowing his ideas to limbo?

20418Why ca n''t you say Statue?"
20418Why did I do it?
20418Why did she evade me and turn altogether to the priest at her right?
20418Why did she not signal?
20418Why do n''t you make something out of this?
20418Why does he not come home to me?"
20418Why does n''t he come?
