14475After a short pause spent in reflections like these, Mrs. Bell resumed the conversation by saying,"Well, Mary,--and what do you think of the plan?"
14475After musing upon this melancholy prospect a moment she asked,"Should not I have_ any_ of the property, if the will proves not to be good?"
14475And what shall your punishment be?"
14475Are you ready for me to come and nail the box?"
14475Did you ever see a better burn?"

59872But where''s your box?
59872But why has father never mentioned him?
59872Can you make yourselves happy till the beginning of September?
59872Did he look up?
59872Did mother say you might have it?
59872Did n''t I tell you we all promised not to go out?
59872Do n''t you know us, uncle?
59872Do n''t you remember we all three promised we would not go out of the house? 59872 Do you really think it would do the boy good to be tormented by a lot of rough, strong children?
59872Do you want anything before I go, darling?

59872How ever did you get up here, darling?

59872It seems a pity that father should buy me such things, does n''t it, mother?
59872Mischief again?
59872Now, auntie, where''s our den?
59872Now, what have you to say for yourselves?
59872Now, what shall we do this afternoon?
59872Oh, Edric, what shall we do? 59872 So it''s going to be your den as well as theirs, is it, young man?
59872That''s my own fault, is n''t it, Edric? 59872 The oak chest?"
59872We know each other already, do n''t we, dear? 59872 What do you think of that, Uncle John?"
59872What happened next?
59872What has he been doing all these years?

59872Who are they, father?
59872Who in the world are you?
59872Why are you waiting?
59872Why had he locked the door?
59872Why should n''t he go, too?
59872Why, John, how can you make savages into bears? 59872 Will Edric come, too?"
59872You''ll love me still, mother, wo n''t you,I whispered, clinging to her neck;"and you wo n''t let them make me do anything I do n''t want to?"
59872And is there anything else you want, to rig up their den?"
59872And, pray, what do you think we shall feel like when we come into this room and see your empty sofa?"
59872Are you better now?
59872But what about Kathleen?
59872But what do you think I found out?
59872Ca n''t you really walk, Edric?"
59872Could he talk English, Harold?
59872Do n''t you think we might as well let her run aground?"
59872Do you know he hardly ever goes out except in the long perambulator, which is pushed as gently as possible?"
59872Do you mind coming to see him, mum?"
59872Do you think I might go with you, just to see it before they come?"
59872Edric trying to walk?
59872Halloa, Kathleen, what do you want?"
59872Halloa, what are you about, Rupert?
59872Halloa, what''s that?
59872Have you looked in the oak chest for him?"
59872He must be somewhere inside?
59872How are you, old man?
59872How came you to think of trying that?
59872How can it be our duty to turn our house into a bear- garden for the sake of a lot of young savages?
59872How do you like the idea of the invasion of the savages, my boy?"
59872I am glad I came, mother: does n''t the water look lovely?"
59872I wonder whether---- Do you know both our servants left last year because they said the place was haunted?
59872I wonder-- oh, Edric, do you remember the footmarks in the mud?"
59872Is he very cross?"
59872Is n''t it lovely to think that we are going to be here six whole weeks?
59872It was n''t likely we should do that, was it?
59872Let me see, I said"rush off,"did I not?
59872Nonsense; how could a ladder be there without our seeing it?"
59872Now where shall I put this flag?"
59872Now, are n''t you glad to see us, uncle?"
59872Oh, did I hurt you?
59872Or shall you go into the garden to look for him?"
59872Perhaps he is asleep in bed; have you looked?"
59872Rupert had suddenly sprung at Jack, and seizing him by the arm almost screamed out--"Spring, did you say?
59872Rupert saw him coming, and cried out,''I say, Mr. Wilson, is father after you, too?''
59872Shall I ever forget those few minutes?
59872Shall I send a telegram to Bath to say the youngsters can come?
59872Shall we be like the monks who hid in the old water mill, and fish for our dinner?
59872This is our castle, but what is a castle without fortifications?
59872Was he very furious?"
59872We ca n''t let her go before us?"
59872What did you say about those steps?
59872What do you say to my ghost being the one who rescued him?
59872What do you say, captain?
59872What do you think of it, Edric?"
59872What do you want?
59872What is he like?
59872What is the time, Rupert?"
59872What on earth is that?"
59872What will uncle and aunt say?
59872What''s the good of lovely windows like those, with old ivy climbing outside?
59872What''s the matter?
59872What''s the matter?"
59872Whose doing is that?"
59872Why did n''t you shout, captain?"
59872Why did you leave the tower when I told you not to do so?"
59872Your new man gave me a sandwich and something out of a little bottle, and I----""My new man?"
59872how could you?"
59872is there another river up there?
59872what are you going to do?"
59872who in the world is that?
59872you, Joe?"
39833''After all,''said Kathie,''third- class is n''t so bad, is it, Neville?
39833''And may we go to see Farmer Davis, aunty?''
39833''And the little girl-- your friend who has written to you-- is she not the same one you were speaking of the other day?''
39833''And you wo n''t forget about the pillows, miss?''
39833''And you''ll be the young lady and gentleman from Ty- gwyn?
39833''And,''Neville went on,''about writing to Aunt Clotilda?
39833''Are n''t you coming out, Kathie?''
39833''Are we near Frewern Bay now?''
39833''Are we, oh, are we there?''
39833''Are you--?
39833''Aunty, even though the house is n''t going to be yours any more, or ours, you''ll show us all the things in it, wo n''t you?''
39833''Aunty,''said Kathie, as Miss Clotilda was preparing to follow him,''may n''t I get up now?
39833''Best and every- day silver all together?''
39833''But are you sure she is an old maid?''
39833''But seriously, Phil, what do you mean?
39833''But they are not unkind to you at school, dear?''
39833''But why is it?
39833''But, Kathie,''said the little girl plaintively,''you wo n''t forget, will you?
39833''But, Martha,''said Clotilda again,''_ can_ I have them with me even for the holidays?
39833''Can this be little Kathie?
39833''Can we really?''
39833''Did she say so?''
39833''Do very long walks generally have that desirable effect?''
39833''Do you really think we are going to be poor always, Neville?''
39833''Do you really think, Neville,''she said,--''do you really and truly think aunty is going to ask her?''
39833''Do you see her?''
39833''Do you suppose she''ll give us porridge three times a day?
39833''Do you think she would perhaps, really?''
39833''Do you think there''s no chance of the will ever being found-- or the paper telling where it is?
39833''Do you think there''s no chance of the will ever being found?''
39833''Have you been very tidy, Kathie, without me?''
39833''Have you had a nice walk, and any adventures?''
39833''How should she know?''
39833''I say, Phil, it wo n''t be very cheerful if she''s going to go on groaning all the time over departed grandeur, will it?
39833''I think we''d better have our dinner now, Kathie, do n''t you?
39833''Is he dead?''
39833''Is it?''
39833''Is n''t_ this_ sea different to the beach at Bognor, Philippa?''
39833''Is that bran?''
39833''Is the lady not come?
39833''Is there nothing underneath, aunty?''
39833''It did n''t seem so far a way from Hafod to Ty- gwyn yesterday as in the carrier''s cart, did it, sir?''
39833''It does n''t seem to belong to it, and yet it looks grander than if it was in the middle of a town; does n''t it, Neville?''
39833''It was kind of Mr. Fanshaw to let me come, was n''t it?
39833''It would be too disappointing if they decided they did not care to come now that we have settled all so nicely, would it not, Martha?''
39833''Kathie, has n''t aunty any more to be made over?''
39833''Kathie,''--for by this time Kathie''s anxiety had drawn her out into the rain too,--''you hear?''
39833''Kathie,''said Neville, partly to change the conversation,''what''s become of our visit to Dol- bach?
39833''Like dried rose- leaves?''
39833''May we go to Dol- bach to- morrow?''
39833''Neville,''she said,''you''re quite sure there are n''t any smugglers now?''
39833''Not the kind of child to be discontented with plain ways-- our having only one servant, and so on, you know?''
39833''Oh, Neville,''she exclaimed,''what is the matter?
39833''Oh, do you live there?''
39833''Oh, miss,''Martha would remonstrate,''how could you ever think so?
39833''Old Farmer Davis''s?''
39833''She is a simple- minded child, is she not?''
39833''She writes as if she would have sent a couple of powdered footmen for us, does n''t she?''
39833''Stay; is there nothing I can put on the seat to make it softer?
39833''Sure, miss?
39833''The little girl who cries so?''
39833''Then do you think it''s no use looking anywhere?''
39833''Then the old part is very old indeed, I suppose?''
39833''Then_ did_ you speak of it to your brother, Kathie?
39833''Those things in the cupboard?''
39833''To please me?''
39833''To the sea?''
39833''Two, my dear?''
39833''Well?''
39833''Were the caves nice?''
39833''What are those queer- looking square things of different colours in there, aunty?''
39833''What are you going to sleep about Philippa?''
39833''What do you mean?''
39833''What do you say that for?''
39833''What does she mean by asking you at the end not to forget your promise?''
39833''What is it?
39833''What shall we do?''
39833''What was it you were going to say to me just when that cab came up, this morning?''
39833''What would they have done to us?''
39833''What''s the matter?''
39833''What, my dear?''
39833''What?''
39833''Where are the caves, Neville?
39833''Where are we?''
39833''Which way shall we go?''
39833''Which would you rather have, dear children?''
39833''Who is Farmer Davis?''
39833''Who was that on the stairs?''
39833''Who would have thought it?''
39833''Who''s there?
39833''Why are you in such a fuss about it, Phil?''
39833''Why do you dislike them?''
39833''Why do you say that?''
39833''Why, are you not ready, either?''
39833''Why, who do you know that''s old maids?''
39833''Will you fetch me a big spoon, Kathie?
39833''Would you like to rest a bit?''
39833''You are sure, then, John Parry, quite sure, you have not dropped or left it at the wrong house, or anything like that?''
39833''You do n''t really mean that, do you?
39833''You do n''t think now, as she could have had any reason for changing at the last?
39833''You do n''t want to see your old woman in the cottage near the creek, do you, Kathie?
39833''You''re going to play lawn- tennis, are n''t you, Kathie?''
39833''Your aunty''s not showed them to you?
39833''Your papa and mamma are n''t coming home?''
39833''_ Do n''t_ you think you could?
39833''to think it over''--''Yes; that''s sensible of her, is n''t it?''
39833123''WHERE ARE THE CAVES, NEVILLE?''
39833135 WHAT_ WAS_ THE MATTER?
39833And do you think you could give Phil some?
39833And so you''re Master David''s boy, to be sure, and missy there?''
39833And the things to eat here are so delicious; are n''t they, Neville?
39833And when are you going to fill the cushions with the new bran for us, Neville?
39833And when the inquiry came down the kitchen passage--''Well, Martha?''
39833And where is little Kathleen?
39833And would you believe, miss, where they was found?
39833And you and master here,''he went on,''you''ll be going to Ty- gwyn-- to Miss Powys''s?
39833And you''d have to get some stuff to scent it-- that one was scented, did n''t you notice?
39833Are there no smugglers now, Neville?
39833Are they really here?''
39833Are you sure it''s safe for you, Neville?''
39833Aunty,''she went on,''may we go there to- morrow?
39833Besides, what else_ could_ it be?
39833But how shall I get through the next two or three days till we can hear if she is coming?
39833But we could always have nice rests, could n''t we?
39833But what then?
39833But what was your promise?''
39833Ca n''t you write to her, Kathie?
39833Can you make out the writing?
39833Can you manage with the things you have till your trunk comes this evening?''
39833Come now, are you ready?
39833Could n''t we write to some shop in London?''
39833Did you ever see anything so neat?
39833Did you know, Neville?''
39833Do n''t I do it splendidly?
39833Do n''t we seem far away from London and from everywhere?
39833Do n''t you smell that nice old- fashioned sort of scent, Phil?
39833Do n''t you think so too?''
39833Do n''t you think the best thing would be for Neville and me to go a very long walk to calm me down?''
39833Do n''t you think, perhaps, you should tell her about the results of searching the pillows?''
39833Do you know I''ve been more than six years at school without ever having what_ I_ call a holiday till now?
39833Do you know we have taken down and shaken every book in the library?
39833Do you like the feeling?
39833Do you think it best to say nothing to her till we hear from her uncle, and to leave it to him to tell her?''
39833Do you think, Kathie, I could possibly make a pincushion like that to send to mamma for her birthday?
39833Do you want one too?''
39833Had Mr. Wynne- Carr suddenly changed his mind, and turned her out of the house?
39833Had she fallen ill?
39833Have you done any work, Kathie?
39833Have you swallowed a needle?''
39833Have you washed your hands?
39833How can I have made such a mistake?''
39833How could I find the will, or even look for it?
39833How could you know, a little girl like you?
39833I am quite sure your dear papa and mamma''--''Did you ever see such a lot of"dears"as she sticks in?
39833I suppose you do n''t want me to leave you the letter?''
39833I thought it best to write to the uncle, as her grandmother is so ill. You can give me the exact address, I suppose, and the uncle''s name?''
39833I wish I''--''What is the matter, Kathie?
39833I wonder if they''ve hunted through Mrs. Wynne''s desk and blotting books, and places like that?''
39833I wonder what house it is?
39833I wonder what she has got to say, and what she has written such a long letter about?''
39833I wonder what she will do?
39833If it''s as fine as it is to- day, might n''t we take our dinner with us, like the other day?
39833If the old lady-- old Mrs. Wynne-- had only looked at the paper before she put it in the envelope, there would n''t have been any, would there?''
39833Is it that the will''s found?''
39833Is n''t it a beautiful place, Kathleen?
39833Is n''t it_ horrid_, Philippa?''
39833Is there no one to meet you?''
39833It''ll be a little lesson to you to be more careful about such things; will it not, dear?''
39833It''ll be all right; but bless me,''--''_pless_ me,''she really said with her funny Welsh accent,--''how ever has there been such a mistake?''
39833It''s worst for aunty-- isn''t she sweet, Phil?
39833Kathie, if he was really a very good, nice man, do n''t you think he''d give it all back to your father?''
39833Let me see-- shall it be haunted?''
39833May I tell you what she says?''
39833May n''t she come to- morrow?
39833No?
39833Now just see here, Phil; should we turn in the inside lining or tack it down_ outside_?''
39833Now, what shall I show you first, children?
39833Oh, Kathie,_ do n''t_ you like her?''
39833Oh, do n''t you wish dreadfully it was going to be our home?''
39833Only there''s one difficulty-- where are you to get the boxes?
39833Or supposing you sit right down among the sacks?
39833Phil, why do n''t you look happy?
39833She was a clever lady too-- you''ll have seen the chairs she worked-- wasn''t it chairs?''
39833She-- I told her about the will, aunty-- you do n''t mind?
39833So may I write and tell her?
39833So what could be the matter?
39833Supposing we go now, Neville, on our way home?''
39833Supposing you go up to that little cottage-- there''s quite a nice old woman living there-- while I go on to the caves?
39833Tell me, dear, what can I do to make up for teasing you?''
39833The Captain''s a right sort of a young man by all accounts-- he ca n''t have done anything to displease the old lady?''
39833The china, perhaps, would please you the most?''
39833The paper that should have been in the envelope?''
39833We''ll just take a peep into my room on the way down-- isn''t it a jolly room, the very next door to yours, do you see?
39833Were you only teasing me when you said you had n''t?''
39833What are you so grave about?''
39833What can we give them to eat, Martha?''
39833What could it be?
39833What might they not find when they got to Ty- gwyn?
39833What room would Phil have?''
39833What was to be done?
39833What''s made them change so?''
39833What_ have_ you been doing?
39833What_ was_ the matter?
39833When do old maids begin?''
39833Wo n''t Miss Fraser be disappointed not to have to scold?''
39833Would n''t it, Neville?
39833Would you let us see them?
39833You like going long walks, do n''t you, dear?''
39833You would rather make them all by yourselves, would you not?''
39833You''re not going to write to Philippa to- day, are you?
39833[ Illustration: WHAT_ WAS_ THE MATTER?]
39833[ Illustration:''WHERE ARE THE CAVES, NEVILLE?'']
39833[ Illustration]''Did your brother bring you any letters, Kathie?''
39833_ Is n''t_ it funny?
39833_ might_ we have two of them?
39833and how kind and sweet your aunt is, and how good of you all to have me; and oh, Kathie, have you hunted well for the will?''
39833how could I find it when that stupid Miss Clotilda and all the lawyers and people have n''t been able to find it?
39833she went on,''do just tell me it is n''t that your mamma''s ill, is it?
39833what am I saying?
36975''And you say, Miss Simcoe, that his coming has quite altered your position?'' 36975 ''Did he go out quite as a boy, Miss Simcoe?''
36975''Had his memory been affected by the hot suns and the hardships that he had gone through?'' 36975 ''How far are you going?''
36975''May I ask what family the man has?'' 36975 ''They did not recognize him any more than you did?''
36975''You recognized his voice, I suppose?'' 36975 About a fortnight before the General''s alarming seizure?"
36975Ah, is it you, Simcoe?
36975And did it happen as they say, doctor? 36975 And do you mean that you would go as a servant, Miss Netta?
36975And do you really mean that you have discovered where General Mathieson''s grandson is living?
36975And do you think that I shall soon go home again, aunt?
36975And have you got any news of Walter?
36975And how is he?
36975And in whose name shall I register it? 36975 And is your uncle so very weak?"
36975And so there is no news of Sanderson?
36975And that is what you call a business transaction?
36975And when could you get it all finished, and everything painted a nice color?
36975And you could put the bed- place across there, could you not, and put a curtain to draw across it?
36975And you say that the curtains of the other window were pulled very close?
36975Anything else I can do for you? 36975 Are those water?"
36975Are you awake, Netta?
36975Are you going to take them out at once?
36975Are you sure that there will be water enough?
36975Are you wounded, Bill?
36975But he is always kind to you, Jack?
36975But how about Atkins?
36975But how can we do more than we are doing?
36975But the other would be more serious, Bill?
36975But upon the face of your appeal to the court, Sir Henry, there is no question as to the validity of the will you propound set up by the trustees?
36975But what are your plans?
36975But what should I say to them, Hilda?
36975But who else can it be if it has Walter''s clothes on?
36975But who is the gypsy, and where did you find her?
36975But why could she not tell me as well as you?
36975But why should I be kept in the dark?
36975But you have had heavy cases brought once or twice?
36975But you say he was only there a week, Hilda?
36975But your pupils, Netta?
36975But, as I said before, Netta, what can we do, more than we have done?
36975Did n''t they call him Walter the other day? 36975 Did they know him also?"
36975Did you ever, Bill?
36975Did you recognize him at once, uncle?
36975Do I gather, Miss Covington, that you do not believe that this man is what he claims to be?
36975Do n''t you know me, Walter? 36975 Do n''t you see that he does not mention Stowmarket?
36975Do you know whether this man Simcoe was one of the party when the seizure took place?
36975Do you mean to say that Miss Covington is deaf also? 36975 Do you really mean it, miss?"
36975Do you see there is a slight, but distinct, contortion of the face, just as there was after that fit?
36975Do you think it would be safe to reply at all?
36975Does she really mean that, uncle?
36975Does that include sails and all?
36975Even without the provision in the will which made you next heir you benefited by it, did you not?
36975Has Walter met with an accident?
36975Have you any luggage, sir? 36975 Have you any questions to ask the witness?"
36975Have you got all the things in, Polly?
36975Have you heard of Walter?
36975Have you seen her, constable?
36975How about the signature to the will?
36975How came you to use the drags? 36975 How do you feel, old man?"
36975How do you get it out? 36975 How do you mean that you do n''t understand him?"
36975How do you mean, Netta?
36975How do you recognize them?
36975How long have you been in London?
36975How long have you been learning?
36975How much does he leave?
36975How on earth have you found that out, Hilda? 36975 How should I have got on through all this sad time if you had not been here to comfort and cheer me?"
36975How was it the other man got hurt?
36975Hullo, Sergeant Nichol, what brings you here?
36975I do n''t think that you quite like him; do you, Hilda?
36975I suppose Miss Netta is in bed?
36975I suppose he was in the army, uncle?
36975I suppose she is not very much attached to her place?
36975I understand, Mary Sommerford, that you were nurse to Walter Rivington?
36975I understand, miss; you have got an idea, and you want to see if it is right?
36975I will ask the waterman,Hilda said, and raising her voice she said,"How much do barges cost when they are new?"
36975I wonder what this means, and who this girl can be? 36975 Innocently, Miss Covington?
36975Is Miss Purcell out?
36975Is it necessary to be quite close to you when one speaks?
36975Is it possible that you are deaf?
36975Is n''t there a cabin at the other end?
36975Is the hair of the same color?
36975Is the paint dry, down below?
36975Is there any business to be done?
36975It was necessary that someone should make arrangements with the servant there for me to take her place, and who could I trust better than Roberts? 36975 Mathieson-- he is an old Indian officer, is n''t he, if it is the man I mean?
36975May I ask if you have stated the view that you have given me to Miss Netta Purcell?
36975May I ask to whom the property was to go to by the first will?
36975May I ask, Miss Covington, why you took up that opinion in the first place?
36975Miss Netta is not ill, I hope, miss?
36975My dear Netta, you never can really have thought of carrying this out?
36975My own place?
36975Nothing fresh, I suppose?
36975Now how had we better send it?
36975Now, are we to have another council?
36975Of course they will take him to the General''s bungalow?
36975Of course, he is thoroughly trustworthy?
36975Really, Hilda? 36975 Shall I come with you too, Hilda?"
36975Shall we get up the anchor, ma''am?
36975Should we, as Walter''s guardians, be justified in spending this money? 36975 So he has broken down badly, Leeds?"
36975That is funny, is n''t it?
36975The pearl fishing is turning out well?
36975Then how much would that cost extra?
36975Then it is a way of speaking when I call you uncle?
36975Then the people do not know what you learned over with us?
36975Then you are living here all alone, aunt?
36975Then you do n''t think any worse of me for it?
36975Then you think that it is quite conclusive?
36975There is nothing you can advise me to do at present?
36975There''s plenty of time, is there not?
36975This boat does not belong to her, Mr. Gill; does she?
36975This is Miss Purcell''s, is it not?
36975To Bill?
36975Uncle is dead?
36975Well, Betsy, how are you? 36975 Well, Joshua,"Hilda said, as she reached him,"what do you think of the barge?"
36975Well, Miss Covington,Mr. Bostock said,"the recognition appears to be complete on both sides; now what is the next step?
36975Well, then, what is your theory, Hilda? 36975 Well, uncle, how are you?"
36975Well, what do you think of that, Simcoe?
36975What about the trade things?
36975What am I to tell Andrew, miss?
36975What are you doing now? 36975 What became of the woman?"
36975What did you read?
36975What do you know about nine- tenths of the men you meet? 36975 What do you say now, Mr. Pettigrew?
36975What do you think of that, Hilda?
36975What do you think, Leeds? 36975 What has she told you?"
36975What is he like, uncle?
36975What is it, Bill?
36975What is it, aunt?
36975What is it, sergeant?
36975What is that?
36975What is the matter, Roberts?
36975What is the report, McManus?
36975What is the verse you referred him to, Hilda?
36975What mystery are you two girls engaged in?
36975What on earth is the matter with you, Mr. Dawkins? 36975 What sort of a girl is she, Roberts?"
36975What will they do, Netta, when they find that you do not come back?
36975When was it he went down?
36975Where can I write to you, John?
36975Where has Netta gone?
36975Where is the child?
36975Which do you think will be best, Hilda? 36975 Which do you want?"
36975Who is considered the best barge- builder?
36975Who is he? 36975 Who should fetch you except your uncle?
36975Why do n''t you turn in, then?
36975Why not go? 36975 Why not, Netta?"
36975Why should he have put it in? 36975 Why, do n''t you know me, aunt?
36975Why, sir,broke in Colonel,"what is it?
36975Will Bill be in to- night with the barge?
36975Will you ask her if she will write to her niece and urge her to return, saying how anxious you are about her? 36975 Will you come in?"
36975Will you come to dinner, doctor?
36975Will you give my card to her and say that we shall be glad if she will allow us a few minutes''conversation with her?
36975Will you have it brought forward that Simcoe has an interest in proving the body to be Walter''s?
36975Will you tell the jury when you last saw him, and how it was that he was lost?
36975Would it be as well to do it at once, do you think?
36975Would you like me to write a line in your name to Colonel Bulstrode?
36975Yes, I have driven up from there by the coach many a time when I was a boy, and sometimes since; have I not, Tom?
36975Yes, I understand,he said;"but how is it to be done?"
36975You are not asking without strong reason, I trust, brother Herbert?
36975You are not joking, Miss Purcell; are you?
36975You are not thinking of doing anything foolish, I hope?
36975You are sure that I shall come back and go out in the barge?
36975You are very comfortable here, ai nt you?
36975You are, I believe, Mr. Simcoe, owing to the death of this poor child, the principal legatee under the will of General Mathieson?
36975You can not recognize the body, nurse?
36975You could not swear to their being those in which he went out the morning he was lost, nurse?
36975You did not make any inquiries about a missing child?
36975You do n''t remember me, General?
36975You do n''t think,Netta began,"that any harm can have happened to him?"
36975You give me your word for that, Nibson?
36975You have decided on your verdict?
36975You have taken an active part in the search for him?
36975You quite assume that he was stolen, and not that he wandered away, as children will do when their nurses are gossiping?
36975You think that my uncle was poisoned?
36975You think that they will do so?
36975You understand all we have been saying then, Netta?
36975Your friends, Miss Purcell and her niece, are still with you, I hope?
36975''He has n''t been here lately, I hope?''
36975''How are you, Tom?''
36975''I suppose you often let it out?''
36975''Not at all,''said I;''how dare you say such a thing?
36975''What,''I said to himself,''Simcoe?
36975*****"How do you think they will be coming, Bill?"
36975*****"Well, uncle, who was it?"
36975*****"You are feeling better, I hope, this morning?"
36975And did you know him at once?''
36975And have you never heard of him since, uncle?"
36975And lastly, by whom administered, and from what motive?
36975And now have you thought of any plan upon which we had best set to work?"
36975And now, how about the boat?
36975And so you discovered this, Miss Netta?
36975And what are you doing?"
36975And what is he going to do now?"
36975And where is grandpapa?
36975And will you give up the other thing, too?
36975And you, Atkins?"
36975Are you a wizard indeed, who can read men''s thoughts in their faces?
36975As to fighting, what could we three do?
36975But how about the boy?"
36975But how did she get so much money?"
36975But where will you have the box sent?"
36975By rail or road?"
36975Can either of you men row?"
36975Can we look at her?"
36975Can you get me a couple of men who understand the work-- bargees, do n''t you call them?
36975Can you hold on?"
36975Can you tell me anything about him?"
36975Champagne or brandy?"
36975Could it not be made a little larger?"
36975Could you manage to be at Mr. Pettigrew''s office at three o''clock?
36975Cousins?"
36975Did he give you his name or say what was his business?"
36975Do n''t you remember Cousin Hilda?"
36975Do you give this man into custody for unlawfully concealing this child and aiding and abetting in his abduction?"
36975Do you know her, miss?''
36975Do you know the name of the man who brought the child to you?"
36975Do you mean to make it a fixed charge, or leave it to each to pay the gypsy?"
36975Do you recognize them as those that he was wearing when you last saw him?"
36975Do you see those two men there in the box nearly opposite, in the second tier?
36975Do you think that this Mr. Simcoe can have been aware of this provision in his favor?"
36975Do you think that you are capable of work?"
36975Do you think we ought to tell him our suspicions?"
36975Does he generally wear evening clothes?"
36975Gill?"
36975Has the barge got a name yet?"
36975Have you any message for him, missis?"
36975Have you ever heard him say in what part of the country he formerly resided?"
36975He is a civilian, is n''t he?"
36975He is brave and pleasant; is he also honest and honorable?
36975Her appearance at once disarmed Hilda, who said soothingly:"How has it happened, nurse?
36975Hilda asked the footman;"have you sent him up to tell nurse that lunch is ready?"
36975How could I sail the brig without hands?
36975How long are you going to stay?"
36975How long do you think that she will be away?"
36975How much would it cost?"
36975How should we set about that?"
36975How will you be coming back, Miss Covington?"
36975How would you do so?
36975I do n''t know whether that is near enough for you, sir?"
36975I do not know whether you are aware that you and I have been appointed his guardians?"
36975I hope that he shows signs of rallying?"
36975I suppose Miss Purcell and her niece will stay on with you, at any rate for a time?"
36975I suppose she inherits his property?"
36975I suppose the man you want to represent is somewhere about your own height?"
36975I suppose there is one in the haven?"
36975I suppose we shall all have to come up again to- morrow to the inquest?"
36975I suppose you are loaded, and ready to catch up at a moment''s notice?"
36975I suppose you have got your pearls all right in your belt?
36975I thought you said the billiards and cards paid well; but I suppose you have got something better in view?"
36975I will take two or three days to think the matter over; and now will you tell me what steps you are taking at present to discover Walter?"
36975If he is not Simcoe, who can he be?"
36975If obtainable, when would they have been brought here, and by whom?
36975If we have to take to the boat, will you go with me or stay here?"
36975In yours?"
36975Is he a man of thoroughly good principles?
36975Leeds?"
36975Leeds?"
36975Leeds?"
36975Leeds?"
36975Leeds?"
36975Let me see, what month is this?"
36975May we ask how you did it?"
36975Nibson?"
36975Now how did it happen?"
36975Now how is your uncle?
36975Now, Netta, will you put on your bonnet and come out with me?"
36975Now, the question is, shall I go back again?"
36975Now, what will you take?
36975Nurse has recognized the clothes, and I suppose you all recognize the marks, Miss Covington?"
36975Or, if she will not do that, whether she will release her from her promise of secrecy, so that she may let us know what she is doing?"
36975Other women go into business, why should n''t I?
36975Pettigrew?"
36975Pettigrew?"
36975Pettigrew?"
36975Pettigrew?"
36975Pettigrew?"
36975Pettigrew?"
36975Pettigrew?"
36975Pettigrew?"
36975Pettigrew?"
36975Presently she said suddenly:"What is going to be done here, uncle?
36975Presently the door opened very gently, and a voice said,"May I come in?"
36975Pussy, where have you hidden yourself?
36975Simcoe?"
36975So you have kept my secret, aunt?"
36975The front door opened, and a man''s voice inquired,"Is Miss Simcoe in?"
36975Then he said to the man next to him:"Do you see that girl in deep mourning?
36975Then, you think that he had better come up to London?"
36975There is nothing else, is there, which leads you to doubt the identity of the child?"
36975To begin with, how could this man, supposing him to be an impostor, know that John Simcoe was born in Stowmarket, and had relatives living there?"
36975We ought not to be long in laying hands on him now, Pettigrew, eh?"
36975Well, Jack, how are you?"
36975Well, mother, have you got that fish nearly fried?"
36975Were you present yourself when the General signed it?"
36975What day shall we fix it for?"
36975What do you propose that he shall do?"
36975What do you say to that, Bill?"
36975What do you say?"
36975What do you want me for?"
36975What does it mean?"
36975What is the date of this last will of your uncle''s?"
36975What is the use of money if one can not use it to make one''s friends comfortable?
36975What is the use of police if they are not to catch criminals?
36975What is to be done next?"
36975What is to- day?"
36975What would it cost, Colonel Bulstrode?"
36975Where have you been so long?
36975Where is he?"
36975Where is it we are to go?"
36975Where is it, and which is the best way to get there?"
36975Which way did the window look of the room where there was a light?"
36975Who are the keepers of the house in Jermyn Street?"
36975Who can tell what they have got under their lime or manure?
36975Who ever heard of such a thing as a basin?
36975Who is the owner, miss, if I may make so bold as to ask?"
36975Who is to blame them, when one of their chiefs was shot yesterday without a shadow of excuse?
36975Who was he?"
36975Who will undertake that?
36975Why should not you two bring your canoe off alongside and hoist her up?
36975Will he ever be himself again?
36975Will he ever get over it?"
36975Would you give me the money to buy him a loaf of bread?''
36975Would you have any objection to my looking at the written instructions?"
36975You are in charge of the drags, are you not?"
36975You can not guess whether it is likely to be a week or a month?"
36975You can not trade in the barge until you have had it registered; shall I get that done for you?"
36975You did not suppose I was going to remain away after your letter?
36975You do n''t mind my saying that, do you?"
36975You do n''t mind my smoking, I hope?"
36975You have looked at the scars from time to time, I suppose?"
36975You have no fear that they will hurt you, have you?
36975You have not as yet settled, I suppose, as to your future plans?"
36975You remember him, do n''t you?
36975You think that it can be managed?"
36975You will be punctual, will you not?"
36975You wo n''t forget me, will you?"
36975[ Illustration:"YOU DON''T REMEMBER ME, GENERAL?"
36975he would say,''hearty as usual?''
36975she gasped, as he put her on her feet again,"can it be that you are my nephew John?"
33383''I beg your pardon, but are you the person who took Michael Gladwin to the Orphan''s Home?'' 33383 A toy lantern?"
33383A''G''man in disguise?
33383After receiving a letter like that how could the old man be mean enough to act the way he did?
33383After that I suppose you never heard from him again?
33383And how about our supply of wood?
33383And is Rudy your dog?
33383And shall we pay our rent to him?
33383And what did you tell him, Dad?
33383And what would you do, Penny?
33383And where is this young man named Michael Haymond?
33383And where was that, young man?
33383And will you have the cottage cleaned for us?
33383And you hope that it will be possible to trace the cloth?
33383And you told him you would?
33383Any more questions? 33383 Any news about your toy lantern?"
33383Anything else wrong about the place?
33383Anything we can do to help?
33383Anything wrong?
33383Are n''t any of the upstairs windows unfastened?
33383Are n''t you an early bird this morning, Penny?
33383Are n''t you going to say hello to me?
33383Are there any mirrors in this place?
33383Are they there?
33383Are you actually sure that he came to Kendon?
33383Are you going to Benton now?
33383Are you having nightmares?
33383Are you still hopeful that someone will claim the toy lantern?
33383Are you sure you''ll not think my ideas wild?
33383Are you sure, Penny?
33383Are you taking your car?
33383Are you thinking of buying yourself a dress, Penny?
33383Are you worrying about toy lanterns, Dad?
33383But how did he get your telephone number?
33383But how did you know where to find Walter Crocker?
33383But how do I know it is yours?
33383But what became of Walter after Jenny''s death?
33383But where will we go?
33383But who is he? 33383 But who is with him?"
33383But why should he try to hide the fact?
33383But wo n''t he wish to get his car which is stored in your barn?
33383But would n''t you think that Walter Crocker would want to find out how much damage had been done to his car before he left?
33383By whom?
33383Ca n''t you open a window?
33383Can we prove it, Dad?
33383Can you tell us the name of the person who brought Michael to the Home?
33383Come in out of the rain, wo n''t you?
33383Confronted with the former matron you believe that he would break down and confess the truth?
33383Could you give me a list of the persons who have bought material from this bolt?
33383Dad, did n''t we pick up Walter Crocker at just about this point?
33383Dad,said Penny presently,"do the Kirmenbachs have any children?"
33383Dear me, how did you manage to see him? 33383 Dear me, what is going on here?"
33383Did Herman offer any reason for doing what he did?
33383Did I offend your housekeeper?
33383Did I see you coming from the barn?
33383Did I understand you to say we are renting the Crocker cottage?
33383Did anyone except you and me see Walter Crocker? 33383 Did my father employ you to read his private letters?"
33383Did n''t I tell you to call on me if you needed help with the case?
33383Did n''t he tell Herman Crocker that he would positively deliver them next Thursday night?
33383Did n''t you investigate him?
33383Did you ever see such a beautiful yard?
33383Did you find what you were after?
33383Did you learn anything, Dad?
33383Did you never make any attempt to trace the boy''s parentage?
33383Did you or did you not have a toy lantern in your house?
33383Did you really?
33383Did you say that Herman Crocker''s home is close to our cottage?
33383Did you say you wanted a ride?
33383Do n''t say what, Dad?
33383Do n''t you expect your father home before night?
33383Do n''t you remember I was using it for one of my own until you happened to notice it?
33383Do you have a film?
33383Do you have a flashlight?
33383Do you know of any other way the lantern happened to be in this room?
33383Do you know where I could find her?
33383Do you know who sent the letter?
33383Do you recall his full name?
33383Do you recall how long ago you missed the lantern?
33383Do you remember that broken toy lantern which I showed you?
33383Do you want to know what I think?
33383Does Mr. Crocker usually break his word?
33383Does it make any difference?
33383Does n''t Mr. Crocker have any other living relatives?
33383Does she live close by?
33383Does your grandfather have a ladder?
33383Doing what?
33383Even the walls have ears?
33383Find anything, Dad?
33383First, how did you learn Mr. Crocker''s secret?
33383Good- by?
33383Have you been cutting more wood?
33383Have you forgotten the wick of the toy lantern?
33383Have you inquired for him in the village?
33383Have you seen the man before?
33383Have you sold very much of it?
33383Have you walked far?
33383He made a positive identification?
33383His nephew?
33383How about the doors? 33383 How about the postman?
33383How are we going to get in?
33383How could I when I did n''t know anything about it myself until an hour ago? 33383 How could he hope to get away with anything as crude as that?"
33383How did it get here?
33383How did you learn that he was related to you?
33383How do I know he''ll keep his promise?
33383How do we know he ever went to the city, Dad?
33383How do you account for Walter Crocker''s car being in Herman''s barn?
33383How is your grandson, Perry?
33383How long has he been away?
33383How many queer characters have you discovered since we came here?
33383How many servants do you employ?
33383How much rent are we paying for this mansion, Dad?
33383How soon may we have the prints?
33383How? 33383 I do n''t suppose you have it with you?"
33383I suppose the local police made a routine investigation?
33383I take it that Walter did n''t discover the lantern in his pocket?
33383I wonder if Michael Haymond is in his room?
33383I wonder if anyone was hurt?
33383I wonder if he did n''t make up the entire story?
33383I wonder if you would recognize him by description?
33383I wonder what he expected to find?
33383I wonder what he''s doing up there?
33383I wonder what is the matter with her?
33383I wonder who is up at this hour?
33383I''m wanted for what?
33383If she''s any good as a housekeeper, why not hire her ourselves by the week? 33383 Indeed?"
33383Is everything all right here?
33383Is he good looking?
33383Is it that ancient, vine- covered mansion?
33383Is n''t it just as dark here?
33383Is n''t this out of season?
33383Is n''t your grandfather here?
33383Is that you, Perry?
33383Is there a fire somewhere?
33383Is this your lantern?
33383It''s another warm day, is n''t it?
33383Just what is it that you wish?
33383Letters?
33383May I ask why you doubted it?
33383May I go along, Dad?
33383May I see it, Dad?
33383May I show you something in yard goods?
33383May I speak with your servants now?
33383May I take your coat and hat? 33383 Meaning just what, Penny?"
33383Michael, why do n''t you come in with us?
33383Might n''t it have been that man who tried to break into your cottage at night?
33383Mr. Crocker does n''t actually mistreat the boy?
33383Mr. Crocker practically admitted it, did n''t he? 33383 Mr. Crocker''s nephew?"
33383Mr. Nichols, you do n''t think that the toy was left by the jewel thieves?
33383Mrs. Masterbrook at home?
33383My nephew?
33383Near here?
33383No?
33383Nothing new?
33383Now do n''t you see?
33383Now what do you suppose he wants?
33383Now what have you discovered, little Miss Detective?
33383Now what kind of candy do you want?
33383Now what''s our move?
33383Now what?
33383Of course I do n''t wish you to get into trouble, Perry,she said quietly,"but why does n''t your grandfather like me?"
33383Oh, by the way, do you know Michael Haymond, our new hired man?
33383Oh, by the way,he said,"I do n''t suppose you found a package of letters in the rumble seat?"
33383Oh, you do?
33383Only a quarter of a yard?
33383Or are you girls running a race?
33383Penny, are you making all this up?
33383Penny, what were you starting to tell me about an account book?
33383Perry,said the detective kindly,"do you remember a toy lantern which Mr. Turner gave you the other day?"
33383Professionally?
33383So Mr. Madden is mixed up in this affair too?
33383So you really are willing to stay?
33383Susan, I did n''t like to say so in front of Mrs. Havers, but why could n''t Michael Haymond and Michael Gladwin be the same person?
33383That being the case, why did we interfere at all?
33383The attic?
33383The point is-- what shall we do with these letters?
33383The point is-- where would we get another housekeeper on short notice? 33383 Then by keeping these letters we might be depriving him of his rightful inheritance?"
33383Then how did he learn his true name and that he had a right to the fortune? 33383 Then where are we going?"
33383Then why would n''t that be a good solution of the matter?
33383Then you believe Herman Crocker really did cheat him out of the money?
33383Then you''ve reached a dead end?
33383There''s no question that Michael will get the money, Dad?
33383Toward home?
33383Walter?
33383Well, did you bring the money?
33383Well, what about it?
33383Well, what is it?
33383Were they valuable?
33383Were you the person whom I mistook for a robber a few nights ago?
33383What became of Michael?
33383What connection does it have with this bolt of dress goods?
33383What could we say?
33383What did you do when you found the letters?
33383What did you expect to find in our cottage?
33383What do you expect to find?
33383What do you find so funny?
33383What do you imagine he has lost?
33383What do you think became of the owner?
33383What do you think happened?
33383What do you want here?
33383What do you want here?
33383What do you wish to know?
33383What finally became of the letters?
33383What is Herman doing here?
33383What is it all about anyway?
33383What is it you want of me?
33383What is it, Penny?
33383What is it, Penny?
33383What is it?
33383What is that, Dad?
33383What is this-- a lecture in motor safety?
33383What is wrong, Dad?
33383What kind of candy will you have?
33383What made you think that?
33383What makes you think he''s a stranger?
33383What makes you think so, Penny?
33383What may I do for you?
33383What shall I do about your mail, sir?
33383What shall I do first? 33383 What shall I say if anyone telephones?"
33383What sort of place is Knob Hill?
33383What was so unusual about it, Dad?
33383What was that?
33383What was that?
33383What will become of Herman Crocker?
33383What will you do now, Dad? 33383 What would a jewel thief-- a grown man be doing with a toy lantern?"
33383What would it pay?
33383What would you do if you found the letters, Penny?
33383What''s all this mystery you wrote me about?
33383What''s happened to the lights?
33383What''s lucky about it?
33383What''s so startling about that?
33383What''s so strange about him?
33383What''s wrong down at the cottage now?
33383What''s your complaint?
33383What?
33383When did you discover your loss?
33383When will he return?
33383Where did you get that?
33383Where did you say you bought the goods?
33383Where is that?
33383Where is the car?
33383Where shall I say you are?
33383Who are you?
33383Who do you think he is?
33383Who else could he be?
33383Who is Mrs. Masterbrook, and where is that old house you mentioned?
33383Who is she?
33383Whom did your friend plan to visit here?
33383Whose?
33383Why could n''t we drive over to Ferndale to- night and take Michael with us? 33383 Why did my uncle hate me?"
33383Why did n''t his claim to the fortune come up at that time? 33383 Why did you come here?"
33383Why did you do that?
33383Why do n''t you snap one of the house?
33383Why do n''t you try resting now and then?
33383Why indeed? 33383 Why not heat some on the stove?"
33383Why not let them grow?
33383Why not?
33383Why should he?
33383Why would n''t he be?
33383Why, where did you get my lantern?
33383Why-- what makes you think that?
33383Will he be expecting you?
33383Will he be sent to prison, Dad?
33383Will we have many other neighbors?
33383Will we need a lantern?
33383Will you fork up the money or shall I go to the authorities?
33383Would it do any harm to try?
33383Would n''t it have been better not to have taken the letters? 33383 Would you have wanted me to take it to a Kendon garage?"
33383Would you mind calling off your dog? 33383 Would you remember him?"
33383Yes, that was queer, was n''t it?
33383Yes; how far are you going?
33383You are acquainted with Walter Crocker perhaps?
33383You are certain?
33383You are sure you have the right name?
33383You did a little investigation work?
33383You did n''t learn much, did you?
33383You dropped it on the davenport?
33383You had it towed to your place for him?
33383You had lost it?
33383You have the letters with you?
33383You mean now?
33383You put the toy lantern into Walter Crocker''s coat pocket?
33383You say that you saw Herman in town?
33383You surely do n''t think that a child committed the robbery, Dad?
33383You think that he has met with a mishap?
33383You think the letters already had been taken?
33383You were n''t looking for me by any chance?
33383You wish to see me concerning a former inmate of the Glenhaven Home?
33383You wished to consult me professionally?
33383You''ll likely be going in to town sometime to- day?
33383You''re not Mr. Crocker''s little boy?
33383You''re not going away, Penny?
33383You''re not hinting that something may have happened to Walter Crocker?
33383You''re not hurt?
33383You''re not intimating that Walter Crocker never went back to the city?
33383You''re not trying to escape from any creditors?
33383You''re not very anxious to go to Knob Hill, are you, Penny?
33383You''re sure that the boy told the truth about having no food?
33383You?
33383And how did he get the letters?"
33383But why did you walk from town?
33383By telling Michael that you''ve suddenly taken a great fancy to him?"
33383CHAPTER IX Herman Crocker''s Visit"You really believe this toy lantern has a connection with the jewel theft?"
33383CHAPTER VII Penny''s Discovery"Is that you, father?"
33383CHAPTER XI Aid from Michael"What''s the matter, Penny?"
33383CHAPTER XV The Missing Letters"What makes you think he has lost the letters?"
33383Can you drive a car?"
33383Chop the wood?"
33383Coming with me, Penny?"
33383Crocker?"
33383Crocker?"
33383Did you live on a ranch?"
33383Did you notice the wick?"
33383Do n''t you wish to ride along with me?"
33383Do you know him?"
33383Do you mind if I look in the back end of your car?"
33383Do you mind walking down Knob Hill?"
33383G.''?"
33383Had the younger man really visited his uncle for the purpose of claiming an inheritance?
33383Have Mr. Crocker arrested?"
33383Have you inquired there?"
33383Having any luck here?"
33383How did anyone get my number so soon?"
33383How did he know about these letters in the trunk?"
33383Hunter?"
33383If that is true, why did the man abandon a good automobile?"
33383If you knew what I do about this place----""What do you mean?"
33383Is there an ax around here anywhere?"
33383Just what does my face tell you?"
33383Madden?"
33383Masterbrook?"
33383Masterbrook?"
33383Masterbrook?"
33383Masterbrook?"
33383May I talk with you?"
33383Nichols?"
33383Not through the keyhole?"
33383Now will you come to terms or shall I tell my story around Kendon?"
33383Penny, what would happen if we just kept these letters?"
33383Say, you''re not Nichols from Belton City?"
33383Shall I call her?"
33383Shall I carry these packages out to the car for you?"
33383Shall I lock them?"
33383Then he asked abruptly,"How would you like a steady job for a few days?"
33383Then the woman said coldly:"Well, what if I did write it?
33383Then what happened?"
33383There was a long silence and then the girls heard Old Herman say in a weary voice:"How much do you want?"
33383Well, do you agree?"
33383Well, where shall I meet you if you do n''t want me coming here?"
33383What do you make of it?"
33383What gave you the idea that Jay Kline and Walter Crocker are one and the same person?"
33383What has Michael done that he''s ashamed to have his true name known?"
33383What is his true name and how did he obtain the evidence against Herman Crocker?"
33383What would be more natural than to have the nephew conveniently disappear?"
33383Why are you prying into my father''s private papers?"
33383Why did n''t you telephone?"
33383Will you please help me prepare the east bedroom?"
33383Would you be kind enough to direct me?"
33383Would you be willing to take a position as housekeeper for a couple of weeks?"
33383Would you mind if I invited her down here for a few days?"
33383You mean the one which your father believes to be a clue in the Kirmenbach case?"
33383You''ll not send me to jail, will you?"
4997''But what good will that do you, Miles?'' 4997 ''Have you got that will I made, Sydney?''
4997''I can make another one, ca n''t I?'' 4997 ''If that is really my name?''"
4997A fortune?
4997About it? 4997 Am I?"
4997An awfully nice fellow, is n''t he, Roy?
4997And did he?
4997And it''s something worth being mysterious about, eh, brub? 4997 And rouse them up at this hour of the night?
4997And that is why you looked so terrible and fainted away when I told Scott Bowman about our inheritance at your office?
4997And what is that?
4997And what was it?
4997And you say he never got here?
4997And you thought I was this man?
4997And you were going to sit up all night to make sure that I did n''t run off with the silver?
4997And-- and was it anything in particular that made you tell us to- night?
4997Are n''t you ashamed to use those berries in that way?
4997Are n''t you going to get out, Syd?
4997Are you fellows ready for another round?
4997Are you going, Roy?
4997Are you in the habit of sitting up till midnight?
4997Are you very sleepy, Roy?
4997But I can be interested in you, ca n''t I, Rex? 4997 But Rex-- where do you suppose he is all this time?"
4997But he''ll be here before he goes to the train, wo n''t he?
4997But how can you give it to a man who is not in his right mind? 4997 But how did you come by the name Harding?"
4997But if he has reformed what would he be going around pretending to be what he was n''t for?
4997But if the rest wanted to do different things? 4997 But is he going to stay, too?"
4997But is he nice and respectable himself?
4997But what are we going to do, Roy?
4997But what are you doing in town?
4997But what excuse will we send the Minturns?
4997But what good will that do you if you have n''t any weapons?
4997But what will people say? 4997 But where can we put him?
4997But where shall we go then? 4997 But who is he?"
4997But why can I not see him?
4997But why did n''t he let us know before where he was?
4997But why have you left yourself out, Roy?
4997But you could find it again could n''t you? 4997 But you will tell mother as soon as you get back?"
4997But you''d ask him now, would n''t you?
4997But your mother? 4997 Ca n''t you get ready to enter next fall?
4997Ca n''t you put it off?
4997Ca n''t you tell me where he is now?
4997Can you help me get him up stairs and in bed?
4997Did I say anything while I was unconscious?
4997Did he have much to leave?
4997Did n''t Sydney tell you?
4997Did n''t come?
4997Did n''t you think there might be any other reason for our sending for you?
4997Did you answer him?
4997Did you ever hear him speak of the Morriseys?
4997Did you tell Rex?
4997Did you write that?
4997Do n''t he look like me?
4997Do n''t you hear something?
4997Do n''t you remember what you found out a little while ago-- about the man who left you with the Morriseys?
4997Do n''t you think Mr. Keeler is all right, Syd?
4997Do n''t you think we ought to throw water in his face or fan him or something?
4997Do n''t you understand that the money which belongs to Maurice Darley I have been diverting to other uses? 4997 Do n''t you want to take my rod and fish a while, sir?"
4997Do you feel all right, Syd?
4997Do you have a doctor for him?
4997Do you know I''ve never seen an author before?
4997Do you know all, Roy; the very worst?
4997Do you know where we are going and what for?
4997Do you know why he was compelled to give up the child?
4997Do you know?
4997Do you mean to say that Rex has n''t been here?
4997Do you remember, Roy, the night last July you went home in Dr. Martin''s carriage and left me alone with Mr. Tyler? 4997 Do you run every time anybody tells you to?"
4997Do you suppose I''d desert a friend in a time of need like this?
4997Do you suppose Syd could have told mother already?
4997Do you suppose he has recognized him?
4997Do you think I look as if I knew much about boys?
4997Do you think he''s honest, though?
4997Doctor, will you mind waiting in the next room a minute? 4997 Does it?
4997Does mother know?
4997Has Miles heard from Jimmy Morrisey yet?
4997Has he lived here long?
4997Has this visit got anything to do with my father?
4997Has your majesty any objections to that disposition of the fruit?
4997Have n''t you any idea where your brother is?
4997Have you got pain?
4997Have you noticed that, Roy?
4997Have you taken many pictures around here?
4997Have you told the girls?
4997He did?
4997He is n''t dead, is he?
4997He''s very sick, do n''t you think, mama?
4997He''s your twin brother, you say? 4997 How can I go?"
4997How can I have a fortune?
4997How can it, since you say he is dead?
4997How comes it he is n''t dead?
4997How could I when you were in the way?
4997How could he do it, how could he?
4997How did he come to do it, Roy?
4997How did they take it?
4997How do you know I ever saw him?
4997How do you suppose he ever got into association with that fellow down stairs?
4997How is it you do n''t know where Rex went when he left you?
4997How is the market?
4997I can come any time, then?
4997I guess that''s good enough,laughed Roy,"How do you like Rex?"
4997I suppose you''d like to go straight up stairs?
4997I suppose,she whispered,"that it would not be right to ask you to keep this money?"
4997I wo n''t say where on earth did you come from,said Rex,"but where in the world are you going to, that you should take in this forsaken place?"
4997I wonder how much he''s got and to whom he''ll leave it?
4997I wonder if Syd will tell him the whole thing tonight?
4997I wonder if be has got$ 500,000 put away somewhere?
4997I wonder if he expects me to tell him?
4997I wonder if he''ll ever find out who he really is?
4997I wonder if it can be the effect of that glass of punch I drank?
4997I''m glad of that"Why?
4997If I tell you something, will you promise to keep it a secret till-- till everybody knows it, as they will probably in a day or two?
4997If we choose to come here instead, it''s all right, is n''t it, Rex?
4997In union there is strength, you know, and-- have n''t you guessed it yet?
4997Is Reginald Pell with you?
4997Is he ill?
4997Is he your brother?
4997Is it anything in particular makes you think that, Reggie?
4997Is it too far to walk back?
4997Is my brother Rex here?
4997Is n''t he queer?
4997Is n''t it?
4997Is n''t that undertaker Green''s wagon in front of the house? 4997 Is that Fox signed to this?"
4997Is that so? 4997 Is the poor man dying then?"
4997Is this Maurice Darley dead?
4997It seems awful to be congratulated now when the old man is n''t buried yet, and--"What''s that you''re saying?
4997It''s awful, is n''t it? 4997 It''s queer, is n''t it, Roy?"
4997Jess, would you be as cruel as that?
4997Let me see-- your name''s Pell, is n''t it?
4997Morrisey, you say?
4997Mother ought to know, do n''t you think so, Syd?
4997Mother, you tell me what all this means, wo n''t you?
4997Mr. Tyler''s money has not made us happy after all, has it, Roy?
4997Needlessly? 4997 No, indeed, and do n''t you know anything about my brother?
4997No; what do you mean, Rex?
4997Now about that three dollars, can you let me have it, old fellow?
4997Now then, is he as rich as we all thought him?
4997Now what is all this about?
4997Oh, Mr.-- I? 4997 Oh, Syd, what is it?
4997Oh, Syd,suddenly broke in Rex,"did you know that old Mr. Tyler was dead?
4997Oh, doctor, when did it happen?
4997Only pretty fair, eh?
4997Or if I write to Mr. Darley here will you give it to him?
4997Perhaps you do n''t think I''m fit to go?
4997Pleasantly?
4997Reggie, what are you doing up?
4997Reginald-- Rex, as we call him-- you mean?
4997Royal Pell, what is the matter with you?
4997Say, Sammy,he whispered,"what position does this chap hold in the place?"
4997Say, did Mr. Tyler really have Syd make his will last night?
4997Send me to jail?
4997Shall I go up to town and get the constable to come down and arrest him?
4997Syd, what do you mean?
4997Syd, you are ill?
4997Syd,he exclaimed,"are n''t you coming home to dinner?
4997That''s the reason we did not see you at breakfast the next morning?
4997Then can you open the door wide enough to help me in?
4997Then he''s been out of his head?
4997Then what are you getting up for?
4997Then you do n''t care for the money?
4997Then you have no relatives, no one dependent on you?
4997Then you will take him away from me?
4997Then you''re squeezed a little down at your place, eh?
4997There is nothing that I can do for him, is there?
4997There''s a possibility--he checked himself quickly--"what would you do with all that money if you had it?"
4997There''s no place where you could take him here in the city?
4997This fellow who told you that there was a runaway coming for you,went on Sydney;"had you seen him before?"
4997This is Miles, is n''t it?
4997To the theater?
4997Told you what? 4997 Useful to you?"
4997Was Mr. David Darley any relation to Maurice Darley?
4997Was he in his office once?
4997We rich?
4997We''ll miss them when they go, wo n''t we, Reggie? 4997 Wednesday night""Was he going home?"
4997Well, I suppose you are better off out of here, but are n''t you going to hire a room in the hotel?
4997Well, my boy, what is it?
4997Well, that''s polite, I''m sure,laughed Miles,"Ca n''t you imagine that Batemans may be our objective point?"
4997Well, what is it you want to know?
4997Well,replied Sydney,"did he learn anything of importance?"
4997Well?
4997Were n''t you Miles Morrisey once?
4997Were-- were you kind to him?
4997What about it?
4997What are we going to do?
4997What are we going to do?
4997What are you going to do about it?
4997What book is this?
4997What can he be thinking of to attempt such a thing?
4997What could have happened to the fellow?
4997What details do you want?
4997What did Reggie want to go with such fellows for?
4997What did he say in it?
4997What did you get? 4997 What did you say to him, mother?"
4997What do you care?
4997What do you know, Rex?
4997What do you mean?
4997What do you suppose mother will say when we tell her?
4997What do you take me for?
4997What do you want me to do then?
4997What do you want to go to the city for, Rex?
4997What do you want to see me about?
4997What fortune?
4997What have you done with that brother of mine?
4997What have you got to tell us?
4997What if Mr. Tyler had only a thousand in bank instead of five hundred thousand?
4997What if he is dead?
4997What is it, Syd?
4997What is it? 4997 What is that, mother?"
4997What is the matter, Syd?
4997What is your last name, young man?
4997What is your name?
4997What is your name?
4997What shall I do?
4997What shall we do then? 4997 What time is it, boss?"
4997What would we do if we stayed up and we heard him coming down stairs to burglarize the house?
4997What''s another reason?
4997What''s funny?
4997What''s it about?
4997What''s queer about me?
4997What''s the matter with my calling here for you and our going up together?
4997What''s the matter, Rex?
4997What''s the matter? 4997 What, you are not Eric Levens, then?"
4997What, you''re not going off and leave Harrington, are you?
4997What?
4997When can I get back?
4997When did you see him last?
4997When shall I tell them at home about it?
4997When?
4997Where am I? 4997 Where are you going, Rex?"
4997Where are you going?
4997Where are you going?
4997Where did you leave him, then?
4997Where do the Raynors live?
4997Where do you live?
4997Where do you want to go?
4997Where does that smell of cigarette smoke come from, then?
4997Where have you and Rex been?
4997Where is he?
4997Where is he?
4997Where is my brother?
4997Where is this brother of yours?
4997Where shall I be a year from now?
4997Where''s Miles?
4997Where''s mother?
4997Where''s that gentleman now?
4997Which one, Syd?
4997Which way?
4997Who is that?
4997Who''s there?
4997Who-- who are you and what do you want?
4997Whose full name?
4997Why did n''t he send word to mother?
4997Why did n''t he tell us where to find him?
4997Why did n''t one of you think to take it out?
4997Why did n''t you speak to Syd before we came in, Reggie?
4997Why did n''t you think to tell us who Mr. Keeler was before we asked him to stay all night?
4997Why does he not explain his long silence?
4997Why is it? 4997 Why is it?"
4997Why not send a message and stay with him?
4997Why, are you an author?
4997Why, has he found him?
4997Why, is n''t he home?
4997Why, what''s the matter with you girls?
4997Why, where are you going this time of night, Roy Pell?
4997Why, where is Miles?
4997Why, where''s all your money gone to, Rex? 4997 Why, yes; have n''t you both contented dispositions, and is n''t that worth a small fortune?"
4997Why?
4997Will he be well enough to go down to Marley to- night?
4997Will it hurt David if I answer?
4997Will you give me your name, then, so I can write to you?
4997Will you mind going up and finding out, Scott?
4997Wo n''t you come in?
4997Yes, Mr. Tyler, What can I do for you?
4997Yes, and you have seen him?
4997Yes, are you all right, Roy?
4997You are Mr. Pell''s brother, I believe?
4997You are fond of him, then?
4997You are not sorry about it, are you? 4997 You are sure you were not smoking with him?"
4997You are the Roy that he sent the telegram to?
4997You did n''t break a limb when you fell, did you?
4997You do n''t feel able to walk till we get to a house, do you?
4997You do n''t suppose the glass he drank went to his head so as to do him any injury, do you?
4997You do? 4997 You got the telegram all right then?"
4997You have a very cozy retreat here,he remarked,"how''s the fishing?"
4997You have discovered the likeness then?
4997You live out of town then?
4997You remember, Roy,she went on,"how he teased me to let him go to New Haven with young Harrington?
4997You think I am very bad then?
4997You think it is the same man then?
4997You will stay, wo n''t you?
4997You''ll let him come in and see us New Year''s, wo n''t you?
4997You''re fond of boys? 4997 You''re standing up for him, are you, Eva?
4997You-- you are a criminal, then?
4997Your brother?
4997Your mother did not wish him to go with Dudley, you say?
4997About what?"
4997And now do you know why I do not want you to come here with stories of riches for Maurice Darley?
4997And now the question arose, What was he to do?
4997And where had been the"good time"for which he had been willing to commit them?
4997And yet what good has it done me?
4997And you have n''t any idea where he belongs?"
4997Another message was sent to New Haven reading thus:"Did Reginald Pell start away from Philadelphia with you?"
4997Are n''t you afraid I''ll break your camera?"
4997Are you any relation of his?"
4997Are you sick?"
4997As their eyes met, the stranger flushed slightly, but said in a pleasant voice:"I hope you do n''t mind being taken?"
4997But by the way, what''s the matter with your brother Sydney?
4997But do n''t you think the restoration of fortune will bring back Mr. Darley''s mind?"
4997But how much money is there?"
4997But if you got it, you''d promise to see that it was spent, and not hoarded as I have hoarded mine?
4997But there were no trains at this time of night, What should he do with himself in the meantime?
4997But was it Syd, this fellow with the pallid cheeks and deep circles under the eyes?
4997But what does all this mean, Syd?
4997But what of it?
4997But what would Rex say if it did?
4997But what''s come over you, Roy?
4997But what''s this heroic deed I hear of your doing for old Mr. Tyler?
4997But where are you two going?
4997But where can poor Rex be?
4997But where is this boy?"
4997But where should he stay while he was waiting for the answer?
4997But why are you so secret about him?
4997But why are you sorry that I do not know anything about your brother?
4997But would he be able to accomplish his purpose?
4997By the way, you do n''t mind me smoking, do you?"
4997By the way, you have just moved into that house next door, have n''t you?"
4997CHAPTER III MR. TYLER''S WILL"Is that you, Sydney Pell?"
4997CHAPTER XI MR. CHARLES KEELER"Well, why do n''t you go on?"
4997CHAPTER XVII REX ARRIVES IN NEW YORK"I say, Roy, can you lend me three dollars?"
4997CHAPTER XXII SEARCHING FOR REX"What train did Rex say he would be back on, Roy?"
4997CHAPTER XXIV FOUND AT LAST"Excuse me,"began Roy, leaning over the gate and taking off his broad brimmed straw hat,"do you know a boy named Rex Pell?"
4997CHAPTER XXIX A MIDNIGHT VISIT"Do you want me to write a note for you saying you ca n''t come?"
4997CHAPTER XXX SYDNEY FREES HIS MIND"You''re pretty weak, are n''t you?"
4997Ca n''t I have some of it spent for a new tennis suit?
4997Ca n''t I help you in any way?"
4997Ca n''t they help me in to a seat?
4997Ca n''t we fix it all quietly some way?
4997Cause why?
4997Come, Roy, are you going down?
4997Did Mr. Tyler leave you any money for what you did for him yesterday?"
4997Did n''t you notice it?"
4997Did you dress and come down after me?"
4997Did you expect it?"
4997Did you know anything about it?
4997Did you see him throw the stone?"
4997Did you think to ask Apgar if he remembered seeing Rex on his train Wednesday night?"
4997Did you understand all that I meant to say in my note?"
4997Did you?"
4997Do I show it?"
4997Do n''t you notice it, mother?"
4997Do you arrest everybody that runs in the street?
4997Do you know whether or not they went off together?"
4997Do you live in Philadelphia?"
4997Do you remember, Reggi-- Rex, telling me the name of the man who left your friend Miles with the Morriseys''?"
4997Do you suppose we shall ever be rich, Roy?"
4997Do you understand?"
4997Does he know that his father is living?"
4997Does he look like you?"
4997Does it seem all right to you that he should leave it all to mother just because of the little thing I did for him this afternoon?
4997Does mother know about it?"
4997Does n''t she have something to say about it?"
4997Fox?"
4997Has this Mr. Darley any children?"
4997Has your brother heard anything about him?
4997Have you forgotten we were all going to Marley at eleven o''clock?
4997Have you got that: all my fortune unreservedly to Jessica Fillmore Pell?"
4997Have you lost him?"
4997Have you told the girls yet, Roy?"
4997He simply turned to Rex and observed,"This is the place, is n''t it?"
4997He was half alarmed at his temerity, when some one rode up by his side and said:"Fine day for wheeling, is n''t it?"
4997He''s a good boy, you say, one I can trust?"
4997How do you feel?"
4997How do you mean?"
4997How is he?"
4997I say, Scott, you wo n''t tell anybody about my adventure this afternoon?"
4997I say, are n''t you going on?
4997I say, come in to- night and see a fellow, wo n''t you?
4997I say, mother, had n''t I better go and stir up Rex?
4997I say, why do n''t you decide now, Reggie?"
4997I wonder if he is ashamed or afraid to come home?"
4997Is he here now?"
4997Is it anything about Syd?"
4997Is it far?"
4997Is n''t it funny how much he thinks of me, when I have n''t done a thing for him?
4997Is that what you want me for?"
4997Is this a very big place?"
4997It is n''t something awful, is it?"
4997It''s a sort of confidential matter, do n''t you understand?"
4997Keeler?"
4997Keeler?"
4997Let me see, how old are you?"
4997Martin?"
4997Mother, may I, please?"
4997Now Mrs. Pell''s full name?"
4997Now if your hero in a story was in a fix like this what would you do with him?"
4997Now, why not make Miles a present of a complete outfit?
4997Oh, dear, why did you ever look up at that trestle and see that old man crawl out on it?"
4997Oh, what shall we do, Scott?"
4997Oh, why did you come to disturb us?"
4997Or did he die before you came home last night?"
4997Presently Rex remarked:"When shall we get hold of the money, do you suppose, Roy?"
4997Quick, write down that I leave all my fortune unreservedly, to-- what is his full name?"
4997Rex paused so long while he was thinking over all this that Scott broke in with,"Well, what is it?
4997Roy answered smilingly, and just then Sydney called to him softly from down the hall,"Roy, are n''t you coming?"
4997Shall I open it and see?"
4997Shall I read you something?
4997Shall we send the doctor, too?"
4997So you''ve lived in Europe?
4997That will be time enough, wo n''t it?"
4997That''s pretty strong evidence, is n''t it?"
4997Then he added quickly:"Look here, youngster, what right have you to send that girl away from here?"
4997Then when she had gone out Sydney said:"You know how much Mr. Tyler is worth, Roy, do you?"
4997There''s a more exciting part coming?"
4997There''s no lounge about, is there?"
4997They were awakened finally by a persistent knocking on the door and Jess''s voice:"Are you boys going to sleep all day?
4997Things take queer turns in this world of ours, do n''t they?
4997Tyler''s?"
4997Tyler?"
4997Tyler?"
4997Tyler?"
4997Tyler?"
4997Tyler?"
4997Want to come?"
4997Was Mr. Pell excited by anything in particular when it took him?"
4997Was he really a criminal?
4997Was he, Reginald, responsible for it?
4997Was it any worse to have committed a crime and have been punished for it, than to commit the crime and not be found out?
4997Was it much, may I inquire?"
4997What are you-- senior?"
4997What did it all mean?
4997What do you do, usually?"
4997What do you mean by that, Rex?"
4997What do you say to a game of Authors?"
4997What do you say?"
4997What do you want?"
4997What does this mean?"
4997What happened to you then?"
4997What have I been doing?"
4997What if he bought a ticket to a place as far as his seventy- three cents would carry him?
4997What if he had not come to Philadelphia, would it have happened?
4997What is his mother''s name?
4997What is troubling you?"
4997What is worrying you so terribly?"
4997What is worrying you?
4997What makes you act so queer about the thing?"
4997What makes you look so solemn, Reggie?
4997What time is it now?
4997What time is it?"
4997What would you do with$ 500,000 if you had it, Roy Pell?"
4997What''ll I do with him?"
4997What''s come over you?"
4997When are we going to leave Marley?"
4997When did he leave New Haven?"
4997When should he( Rex) ever be able to feel as cosy in mind as this twin brother of his must?
4997Where can I see you about him?
4997Where was he going to sleep that night?
4997Where was he to obtain the two dollars and forty cents he still lacked?
4997Where was that?"
4997Who is he?"
4997Who is he?"
4997Why do you want to come and disturb us in our content?"
4997Why should he get the money?''
4997Why was Dudley Harrington any better than this reeling sailor?
4997Will you come to my office on Chestnut Street?"
4997Wo n''t there be a terrible scandal?"
4997Wo n''t you come out and see them, please?"
4997Wo n''t you go outside and watch for him?"
4997Wo n''t you please let me have it?
4997Would he not be about seventeen now?"
4997Would n''t he take it all right?
4997Would n''t they, Roy?"
4997Would you like to meet him?"
4997Would you-- would you mind coming up to see me to- morrow?"
4997You are sure there is nothing I can do?"
4997You do n''t live in Marley, do you?"
4997You do n''t suppose we have him smuggled away somewhere, do you?"
4997You do, do n''t you?"
4997You have n''t got a watch, have you?
4997You have n''t seen it yet, have you?"
4997You''d promise that would n''t you?"
4997You''d rather she would have it, eh, than that it should be held by her in trust for you?
4997You''ll come, wo n''t you?"
4997You''re not bored listening to all this, are you?
4997he went on,"Has n''t he any relatives, or anybody of his own?"
4997interrupted Jess,"You do n''t suppose that Martin Blakesley and Charles Keeler, the author, are one and the same person, do you?"
4997you know nothing of his whereabouts yourselves?"
