6459 | Is it poisonous? |
6459 | Is this the end? |

6459 | Make a good signal, would n''t it? |
6459 | My dear child, what is it? |
6459 | My partner? |
6459 | No such thing,said Peggy in her briskest tones;"what if anything happened to you? |
6459 | No, not exactly-- but-- oh, Roy,even plucky Peggy''s voice broke and quavered,"it''s so lonely, and whatever are we to do?" |
6459 | Not even at the cost of your own life? |
6459 | Not fer me, thanks,was the easy response,"ef you want to hunt spooks--""Who said it wuz a spook or any such pack uv nonsense?" |
6459 | Now then, my dear,he said,"what is it?" |
6459 | Now will you do as I say? |
6459 | Of what? |
6459 | Oh, Peggy, is it perfectly safe? |
6459 | Oh, Peggy, you darling, is it really you? |
6459 | Oh, Roy, you''re not going alone? |
6459 | Oh, indeed,sniffed the embattled Peggy scornfully;"I suppose you think I ca n''t handle a man''s size gun?" |
6459 | Oh, is it you, Peggy? 6459 Ortermobiles?" |
6459 | Roy, do you know where you are going? |
6459 | Say, look at that Chinaman eyeing us,broke off Roy suddenly;"wonder what''s the matter with him?" |
6459 | Say, what''s ther matter with you, Buck? |
6459 | Selling something? |
6459 | Should n''t everybody have an opportunity to develop natural resources? |
6459 | Sis, do you mean you are going to try it? |
6459 | So Jess was right after all,breathed Peggy softly;"but who could have done such a thing? |
6459 | So you were in Blue Creek recently, eh? |
6459 | So you''re after that ornery varmint, Red Bill, are yer? |
6459 | Something else missing? |
6459 | That''s quite true, Roy,struck in Jess,"and besides if-- if anything has gone wrong with Jimsy who has a better right to be near him than I?" |
6459 | The gal, too? |
6459 | The water is almost all gone? |
6459 | Then you really think, sir, that somebody may have wind of the object of our journey and molest us? |
6459 | This is it,nodded her brother Roy;"what do you think of it, sis?" |
6459 | Tramp over those old hills that look as baked as a loaf of overdone bread? |
6459 | True, my brave girl,rejoined Mr. Bell,"but of what use would that be? |
6459 | W- w- w- what speed are we making? |
6459 | Wa- al, Jim Bell,he demanded,"for the third an''last time, air you goin''ter give in peaceable? |
6459 | Wa- al, what''s all ther trouble hyar? |
6459 | Wa- al, what''s up? |
6459 | Waal, ef you know so much, let''s hear it? |
6459 | Want to come, Jimsy? |
6459 | Was n''t that a shout? 6459 Was that one of Red Bill''s men?" |
6459 | We do n''t know yet, Roy dear,Peggy found time to whisper, and then:"Who else was looking for the assayer?" |
6459 | We must be close to the place now,she said;"it''s somewhere off there, is n''t it?" |
6459 | Well I am, ai n''t I? |
6459 | Well, sis, what about it? |
6459 | Well, what are we going to do about it? |
6459 | Well, what do you make of that? |

6459 | What beats me is, if those are Red Bill''s men what are they doing in this direction? |
6459 | What can a girl do? |
6459 | What can be happening? |
6459 | What did he run like that for? |
6459 | What do you mean, my dear? |
6459 | What do you wish with me, senor? |
6459 | What does this mean? |
6459 | What in the name of Kit Carson wuz that? |
6459 | What is it, Alverado? |
6459 | What is it, Roy? |
6459 | What is it? 6459 What papers?" |
6459 | What would cowboys be doing away out here where there is n''t a cow or a calf or even an old mule in sight? |
6459 | What''s that you''re saying, boy,he exclaimed;"what do you know about Red Bill Summers?" |
6459 | What''s that? |
6459 | What''s the hurry? |
6459 | What''s the matter with you two, you mean? 6459 What''s the trouble, sis; bad news?" |
6459 | Whatever will Aunt Sally and the rest be thinking? |
6459 | Where are the twin fairies of light that used to dance in your eyes? |
6459 | Where can we be going? |
6459 | Where''s the corral? |
6459 | Who is he? |
6459 | Why hal- lo, stranger,he said,"whar you bin hidin''all these moons? |
6459 | Why that''s so, is n''t it? |
6459 | Why, when he spoke about that Red Billy whatever his name was, did you see how different he looked? 6459 Wish what, Peggy dear?" |
6459 | Wo n''t you please stand aside? |
6459 | Wonder what kind of weather the ponies are making of it? |
6459 | Yes-- yes, what is it? |
6459 | You are to escort a party of gringos headed by a Senor Bell as far as Steer Wells, are you not? |
6459 | You can make him obey you then? |
6459 | You give me lilly joss now, missee? |
6459 | You know him? |
6459 | You mean if we can file those papers first they stand good in law? |
6459 | You mean you could n''t hear any sound of the ponies''hoofs? |
6459 | You say that Bell and his outfit start to- morrow? |
6459 | You say that the tall chap yonder is Jim, Bell? |
6459 | You say the vehicle is n''t invented that will cross that stretch of alkali? |
6459 | You''ll help us escape? |
6459 | You''re a girl of real grit,he said,"but the others?" |
6459 | You''re certain? |
6459 | And why?" |
6459 | Any of you heard what Jim Bell''s doing in Blue Creek?" |
6459 | Bell?" |
6459 | Bell?" |
6459 | But how far ahead? |
6459 | But what could have become of them? |
6459 | But who can it be?" |
6459 | By the way, reckon you could imitate a coyote, Buck?" |
6459 | CHAPTER IX AGAINST HEAVY ODDS"Any sign of them yet, Roy?" |
6459 | CHAPTER X RESCUED BY AEROPLANE"What''s that down there?" |
6459 | CHAPTER XXIV WHAT CHEWING GUM DID"But, Bud, how?" |
6459 | Could she be losing her mind in the whirling confusion and elemental fury that waged all about her? |
6459 | Did n''t know as you was a sky pilot feller?" |
6459 | Do n''t they eat it or do something with it and then have beautiful dreams? |
6459 | Do you s''pose that any man''ud be foolish enough to locate a rich mine an''then not file a claim to it?" |
6459 | Does it meet with your approval?" |
6459 | Evidently, then, he had been mounted at some time-- presumably recently, but where was his horse? |
6459 | Frightened of what?" |
6459 | From the bottom of the chassis Roy demanded:"Are we too late?" |
6459 | He is--""Will you do what I tell you?" |
6459 | Hot or cold?" |
6459 | How so?" |
6459 | Hyar,"he exclaimed, looking back at the horsemen behind him,"whar''s that dude Chick Berry?" |
6459 | I wonder if that could be what-- what that Mongolian was regarding so closely?" |
6459 | I wonder what he wants?" |
6459 | If not--""If not senor--?" |
6459 | Immediately after breakfast Mr. Bell called the boys aside and said:"How long will it take to get an aeroplane ready?" |
6459 | Is there a storm coming?" |
6459 | It is agreed, is it not, that not a word of our suspicions are to be breathed to the ladies?" |
6459 | Now then, you rascal,"addressing the"romantic bandit,"who had scrambled to his feet,"where are the rest of Red Bill''s precious gang?" |
6459 | Of what dear?" |
6459 | Only Peggy remarked with withering scorn:"I think you might have waited till you were asked, do n''t you?" |
6459 | Peggy, you do n''t think it was anything supernatural, do you?" |
6459 | Say, boys, I wonder ef that''s what Jim Bell''s in Blue Creek fur?" |
6459 | That''s plain enough, eh?" |
6459 | There might be a train leaving within a reasonable time:"Can we get a train there?" |
6459 | Want ter hear about it?" |
6459 | Was it fancy, or as he switched abruptly about did he actually see a dark object duck behind a rock? |
6459 | Was it possible that the coyotes--? |
6459 | What can have happened?" |
6459 | What can he be doing out in this desert country without a horse?" |
6459 | What can it be?" |
6459 | What do you suppose he wants?" |
6459 | What if he should turn out in real earnest to be a desperate character?" |
6459 | What nex''?" |
6459 | What was it he was crying out? |
6459 | What would their next be? |
6459 | What''s all that dust?" |
6459 | Which of you shot it?" |
6459 | Who could be the sharers of their excursion into the untraveled wastes? |
6459 | Who would run the machine if we were n''t along?" |
6459 | Whose-- Roy''s?" |
6459 | Wo n''t they kill you when they find the ponies are gone?" |
6459 | Wonder ef thet feller Juan is learning much?" |
6459 | Would n''t think he wuz a millionaire ter look at him, would yer?" |
6459 | You alters wuz a good tracker?" |
6459 | You know that little jade god that Clara Cummings brought back from China with her when her father resigned as consul there?" |
6459 | You rec''lect that red- hot basin we come through?" |
6459 | You surely do n''t believe all the rot those superstitious Mexicans talk, do you?" |
6459 | You understand?" |
6459 | are you badly hurt, dear?" |
6459 | drawled Bud, as his followers came loping up;"anything I kin do? |
6459 | he demanded;"your sky bronco foundered? |
6459 | inquired Mr. Bell,"you think he''d make an interesting study?" |
6459 | what is the matter with the Senor Bell?" |
33605 | A car, eh? |
33605 | A dreadful fix? 33605 All ready behind?" |
33605 | All ready? |
33605 | And Roy, where is Roy? |
33605 | And so this is the wonderful Golden Butterfly that you wrote to me about? |
33605 | And so you are acting as chauffeur? |
33605 | And suppose I wo n''t accept that offer? |
33605 | And you were afraid of robbers holding you up? |
33605 | Any answer? |
33605 | At this rate we ought to be at the grounds in----But what was this? |
33605 | But how in the world did you come to get in there? |
33605 | But if that were so, why did Fanning fit up a shop out at Gid Gibbons''s place? |
33605 | But what are you doing in town? 33605 But what of my securities in----and----and----?" |
33605 | But where can we land? |
33605 | But you, Peggy? |
33605 | But, auntie,burst out Peggy, blankly,"does the man mean to say that there is nothing, absolutely nothing, on which we can realize anything?" |
33605 | By the way, Morgan,the girl asked, suddenly,"has anything more been heard of the missing jewels?" |
33605 | Ca n''t you delay the start for five minutes? |
33605 | Can I come in? |
33605 | Could what? 33605 Did what?" |
33605 | Did you ever hear such a yarn in all your born days? |
33605 | Do n''t they stop anywhere between here and the junction? |
33605 | Do you mean you are actually building an aeroplane? |
33605 | Do you think she can suspect anything? |
33605 | Does he know you have the jewels? |
33605 | Found out what''s the trouble, Roy? |
33605 | From the clouds? |
33605 | Gee, Roy, you mean it? |
33605 | Go back with you? 33605 Good gracious, is that fashionable looking old man a hermit?" |
33605 | Good gracious, what''s been happening? |
33605 | Good gracious, whatever has happened? |
33605 | Good morning, Fanning,said Jimsy, bottling up his temper at the other''s insulting manners,"can you give me a few minutes of private conversation?" |
33605 | Good morning,he said, doffing his sombrero with a sweep and a flourish;"can I have a word with you?" |
33605 | Had enough? |
33605 | Have you looked everywhere for it? |
33605 | Heard anything of Fanning Harding? |
33605 | Here I am, sis,--what''s up? |
33605 | How dare you say such things? 33605 How long does it take to get there? |
33605 | How? |
33605 | I believe that,said Peggy,"but what do you know about the disappearance of the diamonds?" |
33605 | I guess that that sign gave you a kind of a start, eh? |
33605 | I suppose that is why you have the horse and cart? |
33605 | I tell you I''ll do nothing of the sort,the man was saying;"why should I go and own up that I''m a thief or the next thing to it? |
33605 | I wonder if any one passed on this road while we were unconscious? |
33605 | I wonder if he''ll enter for the prize? |
33605 | I wonder who that can be so late? |
33605 | I''ll never be able to make it in time without an automobile,moaned Roy to himself;"what shall I do?" |
33605 | I''m getting there, ai n''t I? |
33605 | Is that so? |
33605 | Is your father very deeply implicated in the matter? |
33605 | It makes no difference to you, does it? |
33605 | It''s my-- our aeroplane,went on Roy;"who can be in it? |
33605 | Just as you did that day at school when poor little Henry Willis was being beaten by that big bully Hank Jones? |
33605 | Land o''Goshen, what''s that? |
33605 | Look,cried Peggy suddenly,"is n''t that a small island below there? |
33605 | Lost a wallet with jewelry in it, eh? |
33605 | Maybe you know some one who is handsomer? |
33605 | Mr. Bell, it''s Roy Prescott,he shouted;"can you get a rope and get me out?" |
33605 | My dear Jess, whatever has happened? |
33605 | My dear Roy,rejoined Peggy, with dignity,"do n''t you think that I am capable of taking care of myself?" |
33605 | No, dear, not one word,she said;"is n''t it queer? |
33605 | Not in the least,said Peggy, hastily, realizing that none of them had perhaps looked very cordial,"wo n''t you come in?" |
33605 | Now, Mr. Harding,he concluded,"is there no way in which this matter can be straightened out?" |
33605 | Now, then, Jeff, if you are ready will you get in? |
33605 | Now, what could he be up to? |
33605 | Oh, Roy, that''s it? |
33605 | Oh, Roy, what has happened to you? 33605 Oh, Roy, what shall we do?" |
33605 | Oh, doctor,cried Peggy, entreatingly,"ca n''t we persuade you to go back with us in the Golden Butterfly?" |
33605 | Oh, is n''t that pretty? |
33605 | Oh, then, you do go into town sometimes? |
33605 | Oh, will it rise? |
33605 | Oh, you do, eh? 33605 Oh, you mean the time you saw him in the air at night, the time we went to Washington?" |
33605 | Oh, you poor dears,exclaimed Peggy,"and if you do n''t get there at that time?" |
33605 | Say Peggy,spoke up Fan Harding, suddenly,"ai n''t you going to introduce me to your friends? |
33605 | Say, Roy,he exclaimed,"you did n''t happen to put that jewel case in your pocket for safe keeping after the accident, did you?" |
33605 | Say, who are you, and what are you doing with my aeroplane? |
33605 | Shall I come with you? |
33605 | So you''re trying to win out Jess Bancroft, are you? |
33605 | So,he muttered,"that''s your scheme, is it? |
33605 | That''s it,rejoined the boy proudly, lifting a bit of sacking from the contents of the opened crate,"is n''t it a beauty?" |
33605 | There''s a train leaves Central Riverview junction at six, is n''t there? |
33605 | Three minutes to starting time,cried Hal Homer anxiously;"where can Miss Prescott be?" |
33605 | Trust to you to find Roy? |
33605 | Trust to you? |
33605 | Unless what? |
33605 | Want me to take the helm? |
33605 | Well, are you going to answer me? |
33605 | Well, can you suggest any solution? |
33605 | Well, doctor, how do you like it? |
33605 | Well, here we are,exclaimed Roy, looking about him at the sylvan scene as they alighted;"and now what comes next?" |
33605 | Well, may be you are and then again you may not be,was the Sandy Bay youngster''s cautious reply;"but how does it interest you?" |
33605 | Well, what do you say? |
33605 | Well, what if I do? |
33605 | Well, what if I have? |
33605 | Well, what would you say if I told you that that ai n''t Roy Prescott in the Golden Butterfly at all? |
33605 | Wh- wh- when are we going up? |
33605 | What a question, you goose? |
33605 | What are you going to do now? |
33605 | What are you going to do? |
33605 | What can Fan Harding be doing with him? |
33605 | What can have become of the jewels? |
33605 | What can he be doing? |
33605 | What did you see, my lad? |
33605 | What do I mean? |
33605 | What do you mean by saying''a lot depends on it,''girlie? |
33605 | What do you mean, Roy? 33605 What do you mean?" |
33605 | What do you mean? |
33605 | What do you mean? |
33605 | What do you mean? |
33605 | What do you suppose they came to the island for? |
33605 | What field did you come down in? 33605 What is it? |
33605 | What is it? |
33605 | What is the matter? 33605 What is the matter?" |
33605 | What time did that aviator fellow say he would show up? |
33605 | What was the last you saw of the jewels? |
33605 | What''s the matter with Number Six? |
33605 | What''s the trouble? |
33605 | What? 33605 Where are you going?" |
33605 | Where has the thing been? |
33605 | Where is that young scamp? 33605 Why is it so late?" |
33605 | Why not send it by wireless? |
33605 | Why on earth should the thief want to return the wallet? 33605 Why, Morgan, whatever are you doing here?" |
33605 | Why, Peggy, what is the matter with you? 33605 Why, what are you talking about?" |
33605 | Why, what do you know about it? |
33605 | Why, what ever brings you here? |
33605 | Why? |
33605 | Wonder where that girl went to on her tryout spin? |
33605 | Would I? |
33605 | Would n''t Roy like to go in the aeroplane? |
33605 | Would what? 33605 Would you like to try a little flight, Jeff?" |
33605 | Yes, and she''s pretty as a picture, too,put in Gid Gibbons;"guess you were stuck on her once, were n''t you, Fan?" |
33605 | Yes, but how? 33605 Yes, but what? |
33605 | Yes, do n''t I make a nice one? |
33605 | Yes, very fine talk, but what can you do? |
33605 | Yes, where is he? 33605 You chaps are nervous as kittens,"he was saying,"who on earth would come to this island? |
33605 | You have no idea who the men were? |
33605 | You really mean that, Fanning? |
33605 | You would, eh? |
33605 | You''ll promise no harm will come to me or my father through this? |
33605 | You''re not, eh? 33605 You''ve got auctioneering, the Supreme Court and war times, mixed up a bit, have n''t you?" |
33605 | After all, they were true;"what could he do?" |
33605 | After some more conversation the group was about to break up, when Jess exclaimed suddenly:"Oh, by the way, did you hear about Jeff Stokes? |
33605 | And how about inviting us all to have some of those strawberries Pop and I noticed as we came down the path?" |
33605 | And now having expended a wicked sum for the engine of this flying thing where do you expect to reap your profit?" |
33605 | Are we in any very serious danger?" |
33605 | At last he spoke:"I understand that you have built an aeroplane which is a success?" |
33605 | Beasley?" |
33605 | Bell?" |
33605 | But how was he to proceed to make money with his knowledge? |
33605 | But if he did why would he place that wallet on the porch of Jess''s home?" |
33605 | But not too old for Peter and I to have many happy days together yet, eh, Peter?" |
33605 | But that contest is not to come off for more than a month and-- and supposing someone should have a better machine than you?" |
33605 | But that does n''t matter, for you wear goggles and a helmet in driving that thing, anyway, do n''t you?" |
33605 | But who is the old gentleman?" |
33605 | But''as yer''ad han h''accident?" |
33605 | Can you do it for her right away?" |
33605 | Can you hold on for a time?" |
33605 | Come now, do n''t you recognize me?" |
33605 | Do n''t you read every day in the papers about girls and women making almost as good flights as the men? |
33605 | Do you think we could?" |
33605 | For instance, who would know that you had valuables in the car?" |
33605 | Got the files?" |
33605 | Has every place been searched thoroughly?" |
33605 | Have found it?" |
33605 | Have you a comfortable chair, miss? |
33605 | He practically made it his life work, you see, and----""And you beggared yourself carrying those ideas out, eh?" |
33605 | He----""Oh, you mean to imply that I do, eh?" |
33605 | How do I know where he is?" |
33605 | How do you account for it?" |
33605 | How do you know he has n''t gone off with those jewels?" |
33605 | How does the offer strike you?" |
33605 | I do n''t want anything to do with you, do you understand? |
33605 | I''ll bet----""How dare you?" |
33605 | If the Golden Butterfly can win that prize----""By Jove, sis, it''s five thousand dollars, is n''t it?" |
33605 | Is n''t it, Fred?" |
33605 | Maybe we can make that?" |
33605 | Morgan and Giles----""What, Morgan and Giles were there?" |
33605 | Now who could have stolen the wallet in that time?" |
33605 | Now, are you on?" |
33605 | Right, ai n''t I?" |
33605 | Roy, where are you?" |
33605 | That one by the clump of woods round the bend in the road?" |
33605 | There was the gold all right, but how was I to get it out?" |
33605 | There, what do you think of that?" |
33605 | We can make it?" |
33605 | What business could this old man-- in some respects a power financially and otherwise in Sandy Beach-- have with their aunt? |
33605 | What could it be? |
33605 | What did that mean? |
33605 | What had become of them? |
33605 | What had been his mission there? |
33605 | What has happened?" |
33605 | What if nobody heard him and he was compelled to remain at the bottom of the old well? |
33605 | What if she were dead? |
33605 | What of it?" |
33605 | What was he trying to conceal? |
33605 | What''s it about?" |
33605 | What''s the trouble?" |
33605 | What, then, could have become of the jewel case? |
33605 | Whatever do you want one for?" |
33605 | Whatever kind of a game of bluff has Fanning Harding been playing?" |
33605 | Where could such a man as Gid Gibbons be getting such large amounts of money as he seemed to have recently? |
33605 | Where could they be taking him? |
33605 | Where is Jimsy?" |
33605 | Who could it be? |
33605 | Why do n''t you take that rod there? |
33605 | Why, I think----Why, whatever was that?" |
33605 | Why, ca n''t you see that the very first thing that happens is a chance to win$ 5,000?" |
33605 | Will one of you help me catch old Dobbin and harness him? |
33605 | Wo n''t she be pleased?" |
33605 | Wonder if it''s true?" |
33605 | Would it arrive in time to participate in the start and thus qualify? |
33605 | Would it have been possible for Fanning to enter the field while they lay unconscious there? |
33605 | Would the occupant of the aeroplane see his frantic signals? |
33605 | You have n''t got a revolver with you, have you?" |
33605 | You say you want a third? |
33605 | asked Fanning with a sudden accession of interest;"then he ca n''t race to- day, can he?" |
33605 | asked the other;"do you know where my brother is?" |
33605 | cried his aunt, admiringly,"do you think you''ll be able to get a position?" |
33605 | echoed Peggy,"and nobody knows how it came there?" |
33605 | echoed the youth;"will a duck swim?" |
33605 | exclaimed Peggy to herself,"what shall I do?" |
33605 | exclaimed the boy, as he scanned the news- sheet,"why this is just what we were wishing for, is n''t it? |
33605 | she cried triumphantly,"as good a sky pilot as you are, Roy?" |
33605 | where are you?" |
33605 | you indefinite person?" |
33605 | young folks, what''s the trouble? |
10936 | ''Ai n''t much on conversation, be yer?'' 10936 ''Gwan, you fool nigger, don''you know dat dem flying boys an''gals is to be hayr ter- day?" |
10936 | ''I''m a peddler,''I explained,''could I get something to eat and a room here for the night?'' 10936 ''Peddler?'' |
10936 | ''What you tradin''in?'' 10936 ''What you tradin''in?'' |
10936 | ''Where you going?'' 10936 ''Where''d you come from?'' |
10936 | A month''s time? |
10936 | A trip to North Carolina? 10936 Ai n''t you frum the guv- ment?" |
10936 | All right? |
10936 | And how did you solve the problem of what to do with the rest of the summer? |
10936 | And hunt up missing heiresses? |
10936 | And let those kids get away with what they did? 10936 And then?" |
10936 | And what''s that,--lie in hammocks and indulge in ice- cream sodas and chocolates? |
10936 | And what''s that? |
10936 | And why, pray, Roy Prescott? |
10936 | Any idea where the young folks have gone? |
10936 | Anybody been around, Tam? |
10936 | Anybody laughing? |
10936 | Are you good with a shovel? |
10936 | Are you really better? |
10936 | Busted? |
10936 | But how could I go? |
10936 | But how could they know that she was here? |
10936 | But if it did n''t fly, how in tarnation did it git here? |
10936 | But if not? |
10936 | But the guard outside? |
10936 | But what is your plan? |
10936 | But what on earth have two shovels to do with stopping a bunch of kids from entering in an aëroplane race? |
10936 | But who''ll go? |
10936 | But, my dear children, do you realize what such a trip means? |
10936 | But-- but who would drive the car? |
10936 | Ca n''t we stay and help? |
10936 | D''ye think it was stolen? |
10936 | Did n''t say anything else? |
10936 | Did they say they were going to watch all night? |
10936 | Did you have any success with the telephone? |
10936 | Did you see anything? 10936 Do n''t be a goose, Aunt Sally,"comforted Peggy;"do n''t you know that lightning never strikes twice in the same place?" |
10936 | Do n''t know; but he''s all right, depend upon it,said Jimsy cheerfully;"hello, what''s that coming now?" |
10936 | Do you know what happened to that plug, Carlos? |
10936 | Do you think she was stolen from somewhere? |
10936 | Done what? |
10936 | Everything ready? |
10936 | Flap its wings and all that like a burd? |
10936 | Going to tell the girls anything about Kelly and his remarks? |
10936 | Goodness, then you have n''t any right now? |
10936 | Got a mortgage on it, eh? |
10936 | Got any spark plugs? |
10936 | Gracious, are we in for more trouble? |
10936 | Great Scot, what''s happening? |
10936 | Had n''t we better be getting on? |
10936 | Have you any suspicions as to who did it? |
10936 | Have you no other name? |
10936 | Have you telephoned them? |
10936 | How are we going to get out of this? |
10936 | How can you say so? 10936 How do you know?" |
10936 | How does it go anyway? |
10936 | How fast can the engines get back? |
10936 | How is that? |
10936 | How long would it take us to get to Marysville? |
10936 | How much do you think the lease of your field for an hour or so is worth? |
10936 | How much do you want? |
10936 | How was it, Jimsy? |
10936 | How''d you alls get hyar? |
10936 | How''s that? |
10936 | How? |
10936 | I daon''t, hey? 10936 I do n''t know what to do about her,"admitted Peggy;"suppose we ask Aunt Sally? |
10936 | I reckon so, son,grinned the red- faced man, in response to this elegant speech;"now, then, are you going to give up that chair or not?" |
10936 | I wonder where Roy is? |
10936 | If what? |
10936 | In just what way? |
10936 | In just what way? |
10936 | In what way? |
10936 | Is he alive? |
10936 | Is n''t there any fire apparatus near here? |
10936 | Is that so, Mr. Roy Prescott? 10936 Is the window open?" |
10936 | It do n''t never do to be too sure,murmured the melancholy Jake,"''cos why? |
10936 | It''s grand, is n''t it? |
10936 | Jiggered if I know,spoke Jimsy;"ca n''t you or Roy think of anything?" |
10936 | My dear child, do you actually contemplate taking me flying through the air at my time of life? |
10936 | No danger of that,responded Peggy, from the vantage of the tonneau of the car;"but how are you going to rope him?" |
10936 | No; what good would that do? 10936 Nonsense; what harm can he do us anyhow? |
10936 | Notice anything peculiar about it? |
10936 | Now, what''s he trying to do, I wonder? |
10936 | Of course; who else could go? |
10936 | Oh, Peggy, what are you going to do with it? |
10936 | Oh, they did, eh? 10936 Oh, you know me, eh?" |
10936 | On the other hand, how are we to look after her? |
10936 | Peggy Prescott, you mean me? |
10936 | Ready? |
10936 | Remember what? |
10936 | Said nothing about coming back? |
10936 | See here, Jim Bancroft, this wo n''t do,he sharply admonished himself,"you''re on duty, understand? |
10936 | See that sign? |
10936 | So you ai n''t going to stay out? |
10936 | So you''ve been fired, eh? |
10936 | Surely you ca n''t refuse now? |
10936 | Taking a stroll, eh? |
10936 | Tell you what,cried Jimsy suddenly,"what''s the matter with Miss Prescott going along in an automobile? |
10936 | That''s plain enough,struck in Roy;"but how do you propose to do it?" |
10936 | The idea just came to me in a second,explained Roy modestly, in answer to the ladies''congratulations and praise,"it worked, though, did n''t it?" |
10936 | The mayor of the town has asked us to take part,came from Jimsy;"what have you got to do with it?" |
10936 | Then I''m to stay with you? |
10936 | Then how kin it fly? |
10936 | Then we can do nothing more? |
10936 | Then what are we to do with her? |
10936 | Then what did they do? |
10936 | Then you are going to fly out there? |
10936 | Ther law? 10936 There''s another thing, what are we to do with this little Wren?" |
10936 | Three what? |
10936 | Wa''al, it ai n''t flyin'', is it? |
10936 | Wake you up? |
10936 | Want to buy him? |
10936 | We set out for a quiet trip and encounter nothing but troubles--"Adventures, Aunt Sally,laughingly corrected Roy;"what is life without adventures?" |
10936 | Well, I''ll leave him to you now,rejoined Roy;"is there a hospital near here?" |
10936 | Well, Tam,he said,"lost your job?" |
10936 | Well, girls, was it an exciting battle? |
10936 | Well, girls, what''s up now? |
10936 | Well, is n''t that being fired? 10936 Well, never mind, I''ve got another for you,"replied Jim Cassell, in what was for him an unwontedly amiable tone;"can you go to work at once?" |
10936 | Well, there was n''t anything to do but fight, unless we''d run away,laughed Roy,"and now what about the cause of all the trouble?" |
10936 | Well, what do you make of that? |
10936 | Well, what next? |
10936 | Well, what''s to be done now? |
10936 | Well, why not? 10936 Well,"he said,"what do you think now?" |
10936 | Well,said he,"are you going to fly?" |
10936 | Well? |
10936 | Wha''de matter? |
10936 | Wha''s true,--dat you all''s crazy? |
10936 | What are the facts? |
10936 | What are we to do? |
10936 | What are you doing here? |
10936 | What are you doing to this child? |
10936 | What are you going to do? |
10936 | What did you say? |
10936 | What do you mean to do? |
10936 | What do you mean? |
10936 | What do you mean? |
10936 | What gift of second sight have you? |
10936 | What if anyone pounces on us? |
10936 | What is it, dear? 10936 What is it?" |
10936 | What is it? |
10936 | What is your name, dear? |
10936 | What next? |
10936 | What next? |
10936 | What next? |
10936 | What on earth is up now? |
10936 | What will we do about it? |
10936 | What will we do; go back for reënforcements? |
10936 | What you alls want hyar? |
10936 | What''s his name? |
10936 | What''s the country coming to? |
10936 | What''s the danger if we keep on? |
10936 | What''s the matter with it? |
10936 | What''s the matter? |
10936 | What''s the trouble? |
10936 | What''s the trouble? |
10936 | What''s thet, Jed? |
10936 | What''s up now, Roy? |
10936 | What''s up, father? |
10936 | What''s up? 10936 What''s your idea, sis?" |
10936 | What, camp out every night? 10936 Where are the aviation grounds?" |
10936 | Where did those boys come from? |
10936 | Where is my machine? |
10936 | Where under the sun did you find them, Beppo? |
10936 | Where? |
10936 | Who are you? |
10936 | Who can have done that? |
10936 | Who can have done this? |
10936 | Who is going to take care of Wren? |
10936 | Who is he? |
10936 | Who''ll make it? |
10936 | Whom do you mean by they? |
10936 | Why do n''t you box the nasty thing''s ears for riding in our car? |
10936 | Why do n''t you put him on the stage as the boxing ram, or something like that? |
10936 | Why not go after them now, while the trail is hot? |
10936 | Why not? 10936 Why not?" |
10936 | Why, does n''t he wear glasses, have a hawk- like nose and smoke a pipe? |
10936 | Why, what''s the matter? 10936 Why? |
10936 | Why? |
10936 | Why? |
10936 | Will it last five minutes longer? |
10936 | Wo n''t, hey? 10936 Wonder how far we are from Meadville?" |
10936 | Wonder who that man is who is monkeying with the_ Red Dragon_? |
10936 | Would you care to hear about it? |
10936 | Wren, do you know that you are a very bad young lady? |
10936 | Yes, and there are wonderful, long- distance migrations of birds, so why not a cross- country flight of motor butterflies? |
10936 | Yes, and what then? |
10936 | Yes; and what did you tell them? |
10936 | Yes; do you know any reason why I should n''t be? |
10936 | You bane want me no more? |
10936 | You kin? |
10936 | You will, eh? |
10936 | Afraid of the lightning?" |
10936 | Ai n''t likely dat ef de Lawd had meant us ter fly he''d have give us wings, would n''t he?" |
10936 | And then with the same sickly grin:"Say, miss, does it really fly?" |
10936 | Are you dreaming?" |
10936 | Are you there?" |
10936 | But how can you free us?" |
10936 | But, say, who can have done this?" |
10936 | Could she make it ahead of her rival? |
10936 | Get me?" |
10936 | Got everything ready?" |
10936 | How about you, Jimsy?" |
10936 | How comes it you have that monkey wrench in your hands if you were n''t tampering with the machinery?" |
10936 | How do you suppose that gun came to be there?" |
10936 | How soon can you get the engines there?" |
10936 | How was he to confess that he had failed in his trust-- had slept while danger threatened? |
10936 | I guess you feel pretty sore, Tam, do n''t you?" |
10936 | I never heard of gals flyin'', although, come to think of it, why should n''t they?" |
10936 | Illustration:"What are you doing to this child?" |
10936 | Is there any doubt in your mind that that fellow Cassell is at the bottom of all this?" |
10936 | It was not altogether an accident, eh?" |
10936 | No harm in that, is there?" |
10936 | See it?" |
10936 | See that deep cañon? |
10936 | Seems funny, does n''t it, to stable aëroplanes in a livery stable?" |
10936 | So I see,"was the rejoinder;"how be you goin''ter git out of thar?" |
10936 | That one with the fallen tree across it?" |
10936 | That''s so,"cried Roy, snapping his fingers;"it would leave an odd track too, would n''t it?" |
10936 | Then, with a sudden change of front:"See here, Tam, do you want to make some money?" |
10936 | WHAT''S TO BE DONE WITH THE WREN? |
10936 | Was it very wrong of me? |
10936 | Was n''t Pegasus, the first flying machine on record, a horse?" |
10936 | Was this Sky Cruise that they had looked forward to with such eager anticipation to be nothing but a series of mishaps? |
10936 | We''re not hurting anything,"objected Roy;"surely you do n''t mind our occupying the field for an hour or so till the storm blows over?" |
10936 | Well, they''ll see that they ai n''t everything around here,"responded the lad;"I reckon Jim Cassell has some say here, eh, dad?" |
10936 | What are you doing there?" |
10936 | What did they tell you when they let you go?" |
10936 | What did they want to know?" |
10936 | What did they want?" |
10936 | What did you say?" |
10936 | What do you mean? |
10936 | What happened?" |
10936 | What sort of stuff?" |
10936 | What will we do now?" |
10936 | What''ll stop me?" |
10936 | What''s To Be Done with The Wren? |
10936 | What''s that?" |
10936 | What''s the trouble?" |
10936 | Which would win the$ 500 race? |
10936 | Who are you, anyhow?" |
10936 | Who could have attempted such a thing?" |
10936 | Who''ll bid? |
10936 | Who''ll bid? |
10936 | Why should we stay out of it?" |
10936 | You do not like it?" |
10936 | You''ll take me with you, wo n''t you?" |
10936 | demanded his wife, noticing his wildly staring eyes and open mouth;"you gone fool crazy?" |
10936 | exclaimed Roy heartily, glancing approvingly at his sister,"what''s your idea?" |
10936 | punned Roy;"he ramified all over, did n''t he?" |
10936 | roared the sheep man;"ai n''t hurt, be you?" |
10936 | she exclaimed,"what is all this? |
10936 | she hailed, as the porch party hastily adjourned and ran to welcome her,"how''s that for a novice only recently out of the Mineola School?" |
10936 | sighed the child;"am I going to stay with you as long as that?" |
10936 | what''s this?" |
10936 | yelled Jimsy;"Has n''t had enough of it yet, eh?" |
53692 | Afraid? 53692 All ready to run, Ris?" |
53692 | An''why not, señor? |
53692 | And are you not here alone, and in my power? 53692 And do the people love their master?" |
53692 | And how about the bananas? |
53692 | And if the planes, or braces, or fastenings break? |
53692 | And is it powerful enough to destroy the ship? |
53692 | And we have n''t passed it? |
53692 | And what did you think of her? |
53692 | And what would you use for fuel? |
53692 | And you think, on that account, we will let you go again, to carry out your cowardly designs? |
53692 | And you would be willing to forfeit your life as the alternative of not getting control of this yacht? 53692 Any damage?" |
53692 | Any of our people? |
53692 | Any water in it? |
53692 | Are any other men left upon this island? |
53692 | Are they armed? |
53692 | Are you afraid? |
53692 | Are you going to sleep all day, Crusoe, like those dreadful owls? |
53692 | Are you ready, Sybil? |
53692 | Are you sure of that? |
53692 | Are you sure they were not seen? |
53692 | Are you traveling alone? |
53692 | Are-- are we sinking? |
53692 | But how about you, Chesty? 53692 But how will you get there-- swim?" |
53692 | But the big launch could n''t do it? |
53692 | But what are we to do with Ramon Ganza-- and those three rascals imprisoned with him, whom Chesty captured and brought to us? |
53692 | But what made that noise? 53692 But what''s the use, without gasoline?" |
53692 | But will not this journey be a hazardous one for Mr. Kane to undertake? |
53692 | But-- to lie here all day? 53692 Ca n''t he be eaten just boiled?" |
53692 | Ca n''t we arrest him for disturbing the peace, and trying to capture our yacht, and attempting to murder one of the crew? |
53692 | Ca n''t we go there, Orissa, and find out? |
53692 | Ca n''t we manage to do that, Steve? |
53692 | Ca n''t we recover the bars? |
53692 | Can they all be drowned? |
53692 | Can you manage to get away from the deck? |
53692 | Can you solve it, Miss Dentry? |
53692 | Could n''t any ship see our white tent from the ocean? |
53692 | Could n''t we blast a channel? |
53692 | Could we venture some two hundred and eighty miles in open boats? |
53692 | Could you climb a wire, Syb? |
53692 | Could you conceive a more horrible combination? |
53692 | Did I? 53692 Did you get to land?" |
53692 | Did you go over the water? |
53692 | Did you yell because_ I_ was scared? |
53692 | Do n''t they make kerosene and gasoline of it? |
53692 | Do n''t you aviators often shut off your engine and volplane to the ground? |
53692 | Do you believe they are still alive? |
53692 | Do you imagine you would like to fly? |
53692 | Do you know the Tuppers? |
53692 | Do you play checkers? |
53692 | Do you realize, Sybil,asked Orissa in a grave tone, as she took her second sandwich,"that we must pass the night in this wiggly, insecure boat?" |
53692 | Do you see anyone? |
53692 | Do you think you can master the mechanism by that time? |
53692 | Do you think,asked Sybil, uneasily,"it is one of our people come to look for us?" |
53692 | Do you, Captain? |
53692 | Does n''t it look something like lettuce? |
53692 | Does your brother use the Gnome engines? |
53692 | Eh? |
53692 | For why, señor? |
53692 | Fuel? |
53692 | Hair or salad oil, Ris? |
53692 | Have n''t you heard? 53692 Have you a revolver, Ris?" |
53692 | Have you ever seen this dare- devil namesake of yours, Miss Kane? |
53692 | Have you not the flying- machine-- the airship? |
53692 | Having a boat under them, I suppose they will float indefinitely? |
53692 | How about Ramon Ganza? |
53692 | How about food? |
53692 | How about gasoline? |
53692 | How can we do it? |
53692 | How can you do that? 53692 How did Ramon manage to build that house, and make such a big settlement on the island, all in secret?" |
53692 | How did you do that? |
53692 | How do you expect to regain the ship? |
53692 | How far is the island? |
53692 | How fast are we going? |
53692 | How is Mason getting along? |
53692 | How many games? |
53692 | How many men did he take with him? |
53692 | How many years has he lived on this island? |
53692 | How shall I steer? |
53692 | How? |
53692 | How? |
53692 | How? |
53692 | I stood below to catch you in case you slipped; but who is there to catch_ me_, I beg to inquire? |
53692 | I suppose there''s none aboard, Captain Krell? |
53692 | I suppose with the gasoline tanks filled we could go home? |
53692 | I? 53692 If you can not trust me, why should I trust you?" |
53692 | In that case, how long will they continue flying? |
53692 | In what way? |
53692 | In what way? |
53692 | Interesting, is n''t it? |
53692 | Interesting, is n''t it? |
53692 | Interesting; is n''t it? |
53692 | Is Miss Kane here, sir? |
53692 | Is it a-- a-- tent? |
53692 | Is it best to argue the point, Steve? |
53692 | Is it necessary to say more? |
53692 | Is it the same old engine, Steve? |
53692 | Is it worth while? 53692 Is n''t it Madeline Dentry''s yacht?" |
53692 | Is n''t it astonishing,said Orissa,"how much moisture is dispersed from this tiny stream? |
53692 | Is there? |
53692 | Is your mission here to gain information concerning aëroplanes? |
53692 | Kane? |
53692 | Matches? |
53692 | May I rest my head upon you, chummie dear? |
53692 | May I take Sybil with me? |
53692 | May we take the launch, Miss Dentry? |
53692 | Me? 53692 Me?" |
53692 | Me? |
53692 | Meat all gone? |
53692 | Mr. Tupper,said she to her uncle,"do I employ you to advise me, or to manage my business affairs?" |
53692 | My island is a pleasant place, and where else can you find so much happiness when my ship, which you now inhabit, is destroyed? |
53692 | No arms at all-- not even a hatpin? |
53692 | Not yet? |
53692 | Oh, Crusoe, ca n''t you see? 53692 Oh, what shall we do?" |
53692 | Oh; did you see the machine fly? 53692 Oh; have you a yacht?" |
53692 | Oh; that''s the idea, is it? |
53692 | Orissa? |
53692 | Ramon''s? 53692 See anything else?" |
53692 | See that smoke? 53692 So soon?" |
53692 | So you think Don Miguel will keep my yacht? |
53692 | Suppose the engine should some time fail you? |
53692 | Suppose we strike deep water? |
53692 | Tell me, Mateo,said Ramon Ganza,"where is it, beneath this boat, that the mine has been planted?" |
53692 | The Hydro- Aircraft? |
53692 | The Red- beard? |
53692 | The outlaw? 53692 Then it''s the''sort''you love?" |
53692 | Then which one do you love? |
53692 | Then you are''fraid of Ramon? |
53692 | Then, alas, my overtures of peace are refused? |
53692 | Three? |
53692 | Was n''t she to alight this side of the island? |
53692 | Was that your only crime? |
53692 | Well? |
53692 | Well? |
53692 | What are those unmarked dots which are scattered around? |
53692 | What can we do? |
53692 | What did he do? |
53692 | What did you do? 53692 What difference would it make?" |
53692 | What do you intend to do with him, Miss Cumberford? |
53692 | What do you think he intends to do? |
53692 | What do you want? |
53692 | What good would it do us? |
53692 | What has become of the Mexican''s launch? |
53692 | What have we to decide? |
53692 | What in the mischief is Orissa up to now? |
53692 | What is it? |
53692 | What is that, sir? 53692 What is there to cook, in this place?" |
53692 | What little boat do you refer to, sir? |
53692 | What luck, Syb? |
53692 | What next? |
53692 | What now? |
53692 | What shall we do? |
53692 | What time is it? |
53692 | What was it? |
53692 | What will be the fashion of our dropping, anyhow? |
53692 | What will you do, señor? |
53692 | What would be the use? |
53692 | What''s insecure about it? |
53692 | What''s the run, Captain? |
53692 | What''s up, Ris? |
53692 | What''s wrong? |
53692 | What''s your run, Captain? |
53692 | What, Ramon? |
53692 | What? 53692 When do we sail for San Diego?" |
53692 | Where is he, Miss Dentry? |
53692 | Where they go? |
53692 | Where to? |
53692 | Where? |
53692 | Which of the young ladies are you engaged to? |
53692 | Who else wants to go? 53692 Who is it?" |
53692 | Who is this? |
53692 | Who will fly with me to San Diego? |
53692 | Who? 53692 Why are you on deck?" |
53692 | Why did you try to escape? |
53692 | Why did you venture to place yourself in our power, Ramon Ganza, and then threaten us as you have done? |
53692 | Why do the work twice? |
53692 | Why not? |
53692 | Why on earth did you venture to come back? |
53692 | Why should you? |
53692 | Why the witch- women let Ramon make trouble for you? 53692 Why, Syb?" |
53692 | Why? |
53692 | Why? |
53692 | Will Steve go with me on Monday? |
53692 | Will our house stand much of a wind? |
53692 | Will you dare to oppose Ramon, then? |
53692 | Will you have a chocolate? |
53692 | Will you promise not to cry out and attract Ramon''s attention? |
53692 | Will you teach me how to operate it? |
53692 | Will you try it? |
53692 | Wo n''t they be amazed to see us continue this course, beyond the island? 53692 Would you follow Ramon?" |
53692 | Would you like to join our party? |
53692 | Would your men execute such an absurd order? |
53692 | Yes; what is there to make a fire with? |
53692 | Yet even snakes ca n''t exist without water, can they? 53692 You are fond of flying?" |
53692 | You have witch- women? |
53692 | You know Madero? |
53692 | You like Coronado, then? |
53692 | You mean we ca n''t get the yacht off again? |
53692 | You think we join you, then? |
53692 | Your first name is Orissa? |
53692 | A rain storm?" |
53692 | Agreeable, Columbus?" |
53692 | All ready, Steve?" |
53692 | All right?" |
53692 | Am I frightened? |
53692 | And coal?" |
53692 | And you are his daughter?" |
53692 | Are we sinking, Ris, or do we float?" |
53692 | Are_ you_ game, my dear Discoverer?" |
53692 | As they took their places Mr. Radley- Todd inquired:"Plenty of gasoline?" |
53692 | But Mr. Tupper, white and trembling as with an ague, leaped to his feet and cried:"In heaven''s name, Cumberford, what do you mean? |
53692 | But tell me, since you''ve started on such an indefinite cruise, is the_ Salvador_ well provisioned?" |
53692 | But where is your brother?" |
53692 | But why wait for fire to drive you to death most terrible or to my great hospitality? |
53692 | By the way, what am I to do on Monday? |
53692 | CHAPTER XXVIII THE PRISONER"What''s wrong, Ris?" |
53692 | Can you catch a fish?" |
53692 | Can you explain that?" |
53692 | Can you get to the bluff?" |
53692 | Can you see anything, Syb?" |
53692 | Can you tell me, then, the name of this island, and who inhabits it?" |
53692 | Cumberford?" |
53692 | Cut the explosives, and what remains for us to do?" |
53692 | Did I understand you to say, Mr. Kane, that your sister is unable to stop the engine, or to turn the machine?" |
53692 | Did n''t something give way?" |
53692 | Did we coax him to come and try to capture us, that we might prove he is a wicked law- breaker? |
53692 | Did we lay a trap for Ramon? |
53692 | Did you bring along your glasses?" |
53692 | Did you cork that bottle of water? |
53692 | Did you mark that place, Orissa, so we will know when we come to it?" |
53692 | Do I grow pale, and tremble? |
53692 | Do n''t you think, Ris, that those feathered fiends only stopped the concert because they''d howled until their throats were sore?" |
53692 | Do you all follow me?" |
53692 | Do you expect us to believe that?" |
53692 | Do you know, Ris, the owls must be responsible for the absence of all other life on the island? |
53692 | Does gasoline ever spoil, Ris?" |
53692 | Eh, Steve?" |
53692 | Eh? |
53692 | Eh? |
53692 | Feet wet, Syb?" |
53692 | Forgive Monsieur Champetre, if he falls down occasionally; he is as unused to the kitchen-- or is it scullery? |
53692 | Goodness sakes, child,"cried Mrs. Tupper, in great alarm,"do you think I''d risk my life in that dreadful airship?" |
53692 | Had there been a tragedy? |
53692 | Have n''t you enough reflected ingenuity to manufacture a checkerboard?" |
53692 | Have n''t you noticed it?" |
53692 | Have we anything in the way of clubs?" |
53692 | Have you any idea where we shall be by that time?" |
53692 | Have you heard of his latest contrivance? |
53692 | Have you positively decided to establish a circus in these wilds, Ris?" |
53692 | He now stopped short before the visitors, removed his hat and said:"I-- er-- pardon me, but-- er-- was your appointment for this hour?" |
53692 | How are you, girls? |
53692 | How did it blow?" |
53692 | How does the cover open, Ris?" |
53692 | How long a time will the trip take us, Steve?" |
53692 | How shall we get to it, though? |
53692 | How would it do, Ris, to build a stone bed-- something like an altar, you know, with a hollow center which we could fill with sand?" |
53692 | I How did he expect us to get at the repast, anyhow?" |
53692 | I hope you did n''t encourage her advances, Orissa?" |
53692 | If I escape from my island in little boat, where can I got? |
53692 | Interesting, is n''t it? |
53692 | Is it not good way, señor?" |
53692 | Is it not the best to accept my offer, and so save yourselves from-- inconvenience?" |
53692 | Is n''t it a glorious prospect?" |
53692 | Is n''t that another island?" |
53692 | Is that a clear understanding of your statement, Ramon Ganza?" |
53692 | Is there room enough for our boat to enter the bay you described, or is that big rock too close to shore to let us pass?" |
53692 | It has been a long and exciting day for us, has n''t it?" |
53692 | It would take more than a blind bird to scare either of us; would n''t it, Cap''n?" |
53692 | Kane?" |
53692 | Kane?" |
53692 | Kane?" |
53692 | Let''s see; ten in our party, so far, was n''t it? |
53692 | Madeline is rich; what does she care for this miserable yacht? |
53692 | Me, Señor? |
53692 | Me? |
53692 | Meantime, how can we get the key to unlock this chain?" |
53692 | Mighty poetical in the advertisements, eh? |
53692 | Must I carry Sybil in any certain direction, or for any given distance?" |
53692 | Must we not keep Ramon busy, to hold him here until the warship comes? |
53692 | Neither had uttered a word, however, so Mr. Cumberford stepped forward and said:"Do you speak English?" |
53692 | No one would guess this was your plan, would he? |
53692 | Now you understand me, do you not? |
53692 | Of course it will take them some time to find us, but----Don''t you think, Orissa, they''re quite certain to find us, in the end?" |
53692 | Oh, what shall we do?--what shall we do?" |
53692 | One morning Sybil asked:"Is n''t to- day Tuesday, Orissa?" |
53692 | Or had the torpedo boat merely frightened the outlaws, as she had imagined, and driven them away? |
53692 | Pretty sight, was n''t it? |
53692 | Question is, who''s got it? |
53692 | Shall we sing songs? |
53692 | She''s as much at home in the air as a bird; and why should n''t the machine fall gently to the water, when the gasoline gave out? |
53692 | Suppose a storm catches us before morning?" |
53692 | Tell me, Steve,"she added, turning to her brother,"what news of the Hydro- Aircraft?" |
53692 | The task was almost completed when Sybil suddenly exclaimed:"How about a frame for our tent?" |
53692 | Then Madeline sprung her important question:"Do you ever take a passenger?" |
53692 | Then he drew out a silver case and, choosing a cigarette with solicitous care, turned to Francisco and said:"Will the señor favor me with a light?" |
53692 | Then she leaned over and called to Sybil:"Can you manage it?" |
53692 | Uncertain what to say, he asked haltingly:"Do you call it''aviatrix''or''aviatrice''? |
53692 | We ca n''t afford the luxury of illness, can we? |
53692 | We do not seem much afraid of your Ramon, do we? |
53692 | Well, how about breakfast?" |
53692 | Were his men on board, and had they met with some astonishing accident, or had they deliberately committed suicide? |
53692 | What are you doing? |
53692 | What are you going to do?" |
53692 | What could it mean? |
53692 | What do you say, Pietro?" |
53692 | What first, Steve? |
53692 | What is our real danger?" |
53692 | What shall we do now, Sybil?" |
53692 | What shall we do?" |
53692 | What shall we tackle first?" |
53692 | What then, Stephen Kane?" |
53692 | What then? |
53692 | What''s the proposition?" |
53692 | What''s to eat?" |
53692 | What, then, shall we do for amusement?" |
53692 | Where do you suppose we are, anyhow?" |
53692 | Where''s that slab of aluminum that used to be a seat?" |
53692 | Who care?" |
53692 | Why not fly to the nearest point on the Mexican coast, Mr. Kane, and from there telegraph President Madero? |
53692 | Why should I be, with my brother''s wonderful engine at my back and perfect control of every part of my machine?" |
53692 | Why? |
53692 | Will not you, for the sake of the ladies who are with you, encourage my friendliness?" |
53692 | Will they presently descend and alight upon the surface of the water?" |
53692 | Will you accompany us, or ride with your aunt?" |
53692 | Will you see me die like this?" |
53692 | With merely an impressive pause, as if to drive the words home, he continued:"May I, then, be honored by a recital of your names and station?" |
53692 | Wo n''t you take him to Magdalena and turn him over to the Mexican police?" |
53692 | Would n''t the rocks scatter in every direction and bombard us and the ship, perhaps causing damage that would be fatal to our hopes of escape?" |
53692 | Would you destroy us all in this heartless fashion?" |
53692 | You do n''t object to my being Crusoe, do you?" |
53692 | You do not know to where-- to whom-- you have come? |
53692 | You know what time the mine is to explode?" |
53692 | You mean to land, do n''t you? |
53692 | You the Spanish speak? |
53692 | if this racket keeps up every night how are we going to be able to sleep?" |
53692 | protested Mr. Tupper;"what in the world are you thinking of?" |
10954 | A flight? |
10954 | A large red one? |
10954 | After this affecting tableau, is there anything you wish to say to me, hey? |
10954 | Ai n''t tryin''ter fool us, are yer? |
10954 | All is not lost yet, Mortlake, hey, hey, hey? |
10954 | And Jess and Jimsy and----"And that other young fellow? 10954 And a nice, lonely sort of place, too, hey?" |
10954 | And if not? |
10954 | Are n''t you afraid of burglars coming and blowing the door of the safe off? |
10954 | Are n''t you going to ask us in? |
10954 | Are we far from Cape Charles? |
10954 | Are you Miss Margaret Prescott, the girl aviator I have read so much about in the technical publications? |
10954 | Are you going to keep on, Roy? |
10954 | Are you going to tell him, Peggy? |
10954 | Are you going to try for it? |
10954 | But what about the_ Butterfly_? |
10954 | But what are we to do with those two rascals now that we have caught them? |
10954 | But what if, as you fear, the Prescotts have a superior aeroplane? |
10954 | But what''s it all for? |
10954 | But where are the folks who own it? |
10954 | Can I help you fix the machine? |
10954 | Can we do anything to help you? |
10954 | Can we leave a message for you at your shops, or would you like a lift home with us? |
10954 | Can you direct me to Mr. Mortlake''s aeroplane factory? |
10954 | Can you guide us, my boy? |
10954 | Can you read the printing on that sign? |
10954 | Come, are you going to answer? |
10954 | Confound it,he thought,"is this chit of a girl making fun of me?" |
10954 | Did any of those bills have an identifying mark on it? |
10954 | Did you come in an aeroplane, too? |
10954 | Discharged you, eh? 10954 Do I have to answer that question, now?" |
10954 | Do n''t mind if I have a look at it, do you? |
10954 | Do you deny that this was your wallet? |
10954 | Do you mean Mortlake? |
10954 | Do you mean to say that Mortlake is scoundrel enough to plot against her, too? |
10954 | Do you mind getting out? |
10954 | Do you recall the safe being opened while you were in the room? 10954 Do you think I''ve got nothing to do but talk to you fellows all day? |
10954 | Do you think it possible that he is also going to take in that outfit down the road? |
10954 | Do you think that odious boy suspects anything? |
10954 | Do you think we can overhaul her, Roy? |
10954 | From yonder sky,grinned Jimsy, trying, not very successfully, to assume an inanely cheerful tone,"not badly hurt, old man, are you?" |
10954 | Good gracious, Peggy, what are you trying to do? |
10954 | Good heavens, is n''t there any good in the world? |
10954 | Had an accident? |
10954 | Had n''t you better shut down a bit? 10954 Have I? |
10954 | Have you any idea at all as to the direction of the light, Peggy? |
10954 | Have you got der plans? |
10954 | Have you got your course? |
10954 | He is in Hampton-- why? |
10954 | He''s polite about it, is n''t he? |
10954 | Heard the news? |
10954 | Hey, girls, seen a package on the road? |
10954 | Hey? 10954 How did it all happen?" |
10954 | How did you ever come to make such a mistake? |
10954 | How did you hear of it? |
10954 | How far from here is the place where your partner is? |
10954 | How long will that take, do you think? |
10954 | How on earth did you happen to do that, Mortlake? |
10954 | I agree with you,was the dry and rasping reply;"at least, they have put us in possession of one valuable bit of knowledge, hey?" |
10954 | I beg your pardon? |
10954 | I know, Sis, but what possible way have we to prove it? 10954 I suppose you fellows know that you are breaking the law and in danger of imprisonment if you are caught?" |
10954 | I understand that you folks was in this house yesterday afternoon? |
10954 | I wonder if he''ll have the face to brazen it out? |
10954 | I wonder what mischief those young cubs are hatching up now? |
10954 | I wonder who the fourth can be? |
10954 | I-- here, what are you trying to do? 10954 Is n''t it against the rules for women or girls to drive machines in this contest?" |
10954 | Is n''t it? 10954 Is n''t that just like a brother? |
10954 | Is the island inhabited? |
10954 | Is this enough? |
10954 | Is this lieutenant going to stay long in Sandy Beach? |
10954 | Is-- is the baby all right? |
10954 | It''s too bad,repeated Fanning,"but ca n''t I do something?" |
10954 | Let''s see,said Roy thoughtfully,"you''re one of the workmen at the Mortlake plant, are n''t you?" |
10954 | Like to see how that was done? |
10954 | Look here,cried Roy, indignantly wiggling in the officer''s strong grasp,"ca n''t you see that this is all a mistake? |
10954 | Looks rather too warm to be comfortable, does n''t it? |
10954 | Lost Brig Island,echoed Jess in an alarmed tone;"is this an island?" |
10954 | Magnificently handled, do n''t you think so, Mortlake? |
10954 | My dear Peggy,exclaimed Jess, with a smile that showed all her white even teeth,"what will you do next? |
10954 | My dear, little girl,said James Bell,"can you trust me?" |
10954 | No, but no doubt we shall when we reach the farm- house,put in Jess;"is n''t it thrilling, though?" |
10954 | Not in there? |
10954 | Now, what is there that''s familiar about that voice? |
10954 | Oh, do you like it? |
10954 | Oh, so you got the boy, hey? |
10954 | Oh, were n''t they taken aback, though, at the idea? |
10954 | Oh, you did, eh? 10954 Pardon me,"he said,"but is your name Regina?" |
10954 | Pressing her a bit, are n''t you? |
10954 | Queer, is n''t it? |
10954 | Ready? |
10954 | Ready? |
10954 | Really? 10954 Roy Prescott here?" |
10954 | Smart as a steel trap, with teeth that bite and hold, hey, hey, hey? |
10954 | So the government really means to give us an opportunity to show the worth of our machines? |
10954 | So,said Mortlake,"I''m left alone at last, eh? |
10954 | Strong language? |
10954 | Sure? 10954 That message you sent me-- what does it mean?" |
10954 | That would be an easy bill to identify,commented Palmer, uneasily,"wonder if this can be a trap?" |
10954 | The half- hour signal,cried Jimsy;"everything ready?" |
10954 | Then what was it doing in your possession? |
10954 | Then your brother did n''t see the safe opened? |
10954 | There''s nothing serious the matter, is there? |
10954 | They are actually selling stock? |
10954 | They told me----"Oh, come in, wo n''t you? |
10954 | This is a very unfortunate business, hey? |
10954 | To what am I indebted for the pleasure of this visit? |
10954 | We trust you absolutely,said Peggy,"and you''ll trust us?" |
10954 | We understand, guv''ner,he rasped out in a hoarse voice;"Slim, here, and me do n''t take long ter catch on, eh, Slim?" |
10954 | Well, I may have some work for you to do----"Work, guv''ner? 10954 Well, do you want to race then?" |
10954 | Well, this is a nice fix, is n''t it? |
10954 | Well, what do you want me to do about it? |
10954 | Well, what if we did? |
10954 | Well, what is it? |
10954 | Well, what is it? |
10954 | Well, where are those papers, then? |
10954 | Well,growled Mortlake,"what have you got to say to me?" |
10954 | Well,said Mr. Bell, looking round him with a smile,"who says that all the adventure and excitement is in the West?" |
10954 | Well? |
10954 | What are you going to do? |
10954 | What can we do for you? |
10954 | What d''ye think of that, hey, Mortlake? |
10954 | What d''ye think of that? 10954 What did you come for?" |
10954 | What did you read? |
10954 | What do you mean to imply? |
10954 | What do you think, Sis? 10954 What do you think? |
10954 | What do you want me to do? |
10954 | What do you want to do with me? |
10954 | What game of cross- purposes and crooked answers is this? |
10954 | What is all this-- a joke? 10954 What is it, Sis?" |
10954 | What is it? 10954 What make of machine is your car, Fanning?" |
10954 | What name was that you just mentioned? |
10954 | What right have you to demand them? |
10954 | What''s that? 10954 What''s that? |
10954 | What''s the matter, sheriff? |
10954 | What''s the meaning of this rough behavior? |
10954 | What''s up? |
10954 | What, wo n''t even the wonderful equalizer render her safe? |
10954 | What, you here? |
10954 | Whatever was that you used? 10954 Where are you off to?" |
10954 | Where can they be going? |
10954 | Where do you want me to go? |
10954 | Where is the house? 10954 Where?" |
10954 | Which one? |
10954 | Who are they? |
10954 | Who? |
10954 | Why did n''t you say that before? |
10954 | Why not? |
10954 | Why should I? 10954 Why, did they?" |
10954 | Why, if I may ask? |
10954 | Why, what is it? 10954 Why?" |
10954 | Why? |
10954 | Will they report us? |
10954 | Will you be good enough to mail some letters for us? |
10954 | Will you do something for me-- will you aid a miserable outcast to right a great wrong? |
10954 | Wonder where they can be going to? |
10954 | Wot papers might you be lookin''fer? |
10954 | Wots it worth if we tell yer where them papers are, guv''ners both? |
10954 | Yep,was the grunted reply;"and now Mister What''s- Yer- Name, what are you going ter do with us?" |
10954 | Yes,said Peggy,"did n''t you know? |
10954 | Yes,she said;"why?" |
10954 | You ai n''t goin''ter give us up guv''ner? 10954 You are sure this was the place?" |
10954 | You ca n''t scare me by rattling old bones,he said,"What do you know about it?" |
10954 | You do n''t think I''m going to allow Fanning Harding to scare me out of anything, do you? |
10954 | You do not? 10954 You have an aviator attached to your place, then?" |
10954 | You have been in New York, then? |
10954 | You say that they were hanging about Mortlake''s place? |
10954 | You see,she explained,"it would never do for us to reveal all our secrets, would it? |
10954 | You thoroughly understand your instructions now? |
10954 | You''re sure that bill is all right, Joey? |
10954 | After all, why should n''t Mr. Harding and Mortlake be driving to the farm? |
10954 | All agreed that things looked as black against them as could be, but-- where was the proof? |
10954 | All right, ai n''t it?" |
10954 | And in the face of this, do you mean to say that the boy would dare to keep up his apparent negotiations with the United States?" |
10954 | And who do you think is to be his companion?" |
10954 | And yet, what could be Mortlake''s object? |
10954 | Are you willing to let your estimate of young Prescott stand or fall by this meeting?" |
10954 | Bell?" |
10954 | Bradbury know that I''m here?" |
10954 | But I can do the same thing if you''d care to see it?" |
10954 | But Jimsy said suddenly:"If that was the case, why did n''t they try to make out that I stole it?" |
10954 | But Roy struck in with a question:"Was n''t Mr. Mortlake, accompanied by Harding, out here last night?" |
10954 | But do n''t you see what power that gives us?" |
10954 | But what does all this mean? |
10954 | But what does all this mean? |
10954 | But what had become of them? |
10954 | But what under ther sun air you young folks in your fine clothes a- doin''out here?" |
10954 | But what was the_ Golden Butterfly_ doing? |
10954 | But what? |
10954 | But why do you look so distressed, Peggy?" |
10954 | But you do n''t think I''m worrying about your car now, do you?" |
10954 | But, man, what has happened to you? |
10954 | By the way, what time does the first test come off?" |
10954 | Close at hand?" |
10954 | Did n''t I, Slim?" |
10954 | Did n''t you just hand the plans of the aeroplane over to that representative of a foreign government whom Mr. Mortlake is now chasing?" |
10954 | Did you hear any details?" |
10954 | Did you know that for some days past a German spy has been in Sandy Beach?" |
10954 | Do you know him?" |
10954 | Do you mean to try to lie out of it? |
10954 | Do you suppose that Mr. Prescott will be long?" |
10954 | Drop from ther clouds?" |
10954 | Fine young girls, eh? |
10954 | For what object? |
10954 | Foun''suthin''vallerable, hev yer? |
10954 | Got the money?" |
10954 | Have you any clue yet?" |
10954 | Hey, hey, hey?" |
10954 | Hey, what''s all this? |
10954 | Hey?" |
10954 | How about it girls, are you hungry?" |
10954 | Hullo, who''s this?" |
10954 | I can take you to him?" |
10954 | Is n''t that enough?" |
10954 | Is this the Prescott house?" |
10954 | Is your brother badly hurt?" |
10954 | Listen-- who do you suppose has come back to Sandy Beach?" |
10954 | Mortlake?" |
10954 | Mortlake?" |
10954 | Nice products of the twentieth century, hey?" |
10954 | No, not that schooner below there-- I mean that sort of whitish drift-- it looks like cotton-- on the horizon?" |
10954 | Now then-- do you know a man named Mortlake?" |
10954 | Oh, how can I ever thank you?" |
10954 | Or are you afraid to drive mine?" |
10954 | Poor Roy, I wonder how he is getting along?" |
10954 | Prescott?" |
10954 | Regina, have n''t you a word for me? |
10954 | Roy will be as good as ever by to- morrow, wo n''t you boy?" |
10954 | See?" |
10954 | Smart as a steel trap, hey?" |
10954 | So Master Roy Prescott, you were planning to unmask me by that side- comb, were you? |
10954 | So he was keeping that as evidence against me, eh? |
10954 | Strange, is n''t it?" |
10954 | Suppose they mistake us for burglars, and shoot us?" |
10954 | Suppose----Good heavens, what''s that?" |
10954 | That chap who got away wore a gray suit, while yours is a blue serge, is n''t it?" |
10954 | That is, if you girls are n''t scared?" |
10954 | The part of Roy on that eventful night had been played by:"Guess whom?" |
10954 | To be accurate, young Prescott''s-- you know whom I mean?" |
10954 | Was it fancy, or did Roy, for a second, see Mortlake quail and whiten? |
10954 | We was broke, and----""And so you thought you''d replenish your pockets by holding up some automobilist or traveller, eh? |
10954 | Well, what was the nature of that employment?" |
10954 | Well, what''s that got to do with me?" |
10954 | Well, would n''t that jar you?" |
10954 | What about that pocket tool kit I had when I started out on the auto? |
10954 | What are you doing here?" |
10954 | What could be coming now? |
10954 | What d''ye mean by that, hey? |
10954 | What d''ye mean by that?" |
10954 | What do you know about this?" |
10954 | What do you mean?" |
10954 | What do you want?" |
10954 | What does all this mean?" |
10954 | What is it?" |
10954 | What more do you want?" |
10954 | What of him? |
10954 | What on earth do I know about it?" |
10954 | What time is that naval lieutenant coming to look over the Prescott aeroplane, Peggy?" |
10954 | What was that the crowd were shouting? |
10954 | What''s all this?" |
10954 | Where is such an aeroplane?" |
10954 | Who can be coming now?" |
10954 | Who could the two pretty girls in natty motor bonnets, with goggles attached, the plain, heavy skirts and dark shirt- waists be? |
10954 | Who ever saw a barn with skylights on it?" |
10954 | Who was in the parlor beside yourself when Mr. Galloway opened the wall safe to reward the men who had helped him extinguish the fire?" |
10954 | Who''s to know we have the money? |
10954 | Who, then?" |
10954 | Who?" |
10954 | Why ca n''t we get a doctor? |
10954 | Why did you go into the manufacture of aerial machines, if you did n''t mean to stick it out?" |
10954 | Why do n''t you call the police?" |
10954 | Why do n''t you get somebody else to do it?" |
10954 | Why had Regina been so mortified, and apparently alarmed, when she had announced the loss of one of her side- combs? |
10954 | Will you go?" |
10954 | Will you meet him? |
10954 | Wo n''t you forgive me for deceiving you about your father all these years?" |
10954 | Wo n''t you have a straw hat-- I mean a seat?" |
10954 | Wonder where they can be going?" |
10954 | You agree with me, do n''t you?" |
10954 | You came here with him?" |
10954 | You can see we''re not flying, ca n''t you?" |
10954 | You thoroughly understand, now, to- morrow night on the road to Galloway''s farm?" |
10954 | You wo n''t mind accompanying me then, while I oversee the workmen?" |
10954 | Your brother was not there?" |
10954 | asked Peggy boldly enough, despite her inward terror;"you had better go on at once, or----""Waal, or what?" |
10954 | cried Mortlake, while old Mr. Harding spluttered:"Eh, eh? |
10954 | exclaimed Peggy, as a sudden thought struck her,"suppose there should be trapdoors?" |
10954 | he cried as his eyes fell on the trio,"whar under ther sun did you come from? |
10954 | murmured Roy, smiling pluckily, as the Bancrofts came toward him with pitying looks,"but where in the world did you come from?" |
10954 | shouted Mortlake, uselessly as he knew,"what''s the matter with you?" |
10954 | shrilled Regina, who had now joined the group,"you do n''t surely mean to insinuate? |
10954 | the man nodded his head in the direction in which Fanning and Regina had vanished,"did they come in a Mortlake aeroplane?" |
10954 | whistled the boy,"a new conquest for the irresistible Fanning, eh?" |
10954 | you did not drop it?" |
44862 | ''Is that all?'' |
44862 | A week? |
44862 | About the necklace? |
44862 | And by the way, you''re from the Spring City Flying School, are n''t you? 44862 And did you succeed in getting a nurse?" |
44862 | And is that all? |
44862 | And is your ambition flying? |
44862 | And may I have him for a friend? |
44862 | And may I see you when you are trying it on? |
44862 | And now the question is, who can teach you to fly? 44862 And now,"added Linda,"will one of your mechanics look over my plane and put it away till tomorrow? |
44862 | And somebody had already picked it up? |
44862 | And suppose nothing does? |
44862 | And will you be back in time for dinner? |
44862 | And will you dictate that to a stenographer, and send a copy to Ted by air- mail? |
44862 | And you do n''t think he''s wicked, just because his father is, do you, Aunt Emily? |
44862 | And-- er-- how did you and this thief happen to be together? |
44862 | Any news? |
44862 | Are n''t you afraid if you do n''t exercise, you''ll lose it? |
44862 | Are n''t you sleepy too? |
44862 | Are the pearls safe? |
44862 | Are you ready, Aunt Emily? |
44862 | Are you scared at all, Linda? |
44862 | Are you sure that you have the precious necklace? |
44862 | Are you sure? |
44862 | Are you willing to have me take Ted back again? |
44862 | Aunt Emily has been doing all the shopping, so I hardly need to do anything.... By the way, did Kit give you any gossip about the crowd? |
44862 | Baby- talk? |
44862 | But are you a friend or an enemy of Mr. Mackay, Miss----? |
44862 | But are you sure you''ve finished dinner? |
44862 | But can you give me any news of my plane? |
44862 | But did you say''Who''or''You''? |
44862 | But do n''t you want something to eat before you start back? |
44862 | But does that account for that whole crowd? |
44862 | But have n''t you had enough flying for today, Linda? |
44862 | But how do you explain it all, Ted? |
44862 | But how do you explain the fact that he was shot? 44862 But not as much of it as you do of me?" |
44862 | But tomorrow? |
44862 | But what about me? |
44862 | But what do you girls want me to do? |
44862 | But whom will you ask? 44862 But would n''t you rather leave your plane and taxi over?" |
44862 | But you are a new pilot, are n''t you? |
44862 | But you do believe I''m capable, do n''t you, Ted? |
44862 | But you know where he lives? |
44862 | But you will? |
44862 | By other men in the company----"Are they here? |
44862 | By the way, daughter, have you ever tried jumping with a parachute? 44862 By the way, did you tell your father about finding the necklace? |
44862 | By the way, how soon will you take me for a fly? |
44862 | Can you give us directions? |
44862 | Can you tell me where Dr. Lineaweaver, the surgeon, can be located? |
44862 | Children,interrupted Miss Carlton, who had been patiently waiting to serve the refreshments,"would n''t you all feel better if you ate something? |
44862 | Could you get him on the telephone for me? |
44862 | Daddy--she lowered her voice--"you do n''t mind my being with Ted Mackay? |
44862 | Daddy? |
44862 | Dan Stillman? |
44862 | Dan? |
44862 | Did I do anything wrong? |
44862 | Did Linda see much of Mackay while she was at the school? |
44862 | Did he act as if he wanted to get out of the hospital as quickly as possible? |
44862 | Did n''t I supply the brains to our combine? |
44862 | Did you bring my necklace, Ralph? |
44862 | Do I have to give one box to that lazy kid? |
44862 | Do n''t you feel so, Ted? |
44862 | Do you feel better, dear? |
44862 | Do you know him? |
44862 | Do you mean he''s here? |
44862 | Do you mean that you saw somebody take it-- right under your eyes? |
44862 | Do you mind missing it, my dear? |
44862 | Do you really mean it, Aunt Emily? |
44862 | Do you remember a man named Clavering, Tom? |
44862 | Do you remember hearing a plane very close to the house when we were playing ping- pong last night? |
44862 | Do you think he is a tramp? |
44862 | Do you think it''s the Waco? |
44862 | Doctors? |
44862 | Does n''t everybody want to fly now- a- days? |
44862 | Does''ou fink me cute? |
44862 | Even so, I do n''t have to admire her appearance, do I? |
44862 | Flying? |
44862 | Get our wire? |
44862 | Grieving for papa? |
44862 | Has anybody found the treasure yet? |
44862 | Has he been so, long? |
44862 | Hate-- trees? |
44862 | Have you any idea what is wrong with the plane? |
44862 | He did n''t say anything about the detectives? |
44862 | He would n''t do a thing like that, would he? |
44862 | He''s big-- with red hair, and blue eyes, Why? 44862 Here?" |
44862 | Holding hands with Red? |
44862 | How about some lunch? |
44862 | How about tomorrow morning? |
44862 | How about your pistol? |
44862 | How about your school- girl figure? |
44862 | How could I, Aunt Emily? 44862 How could you know that I wanted it so much?" |
44862 | How do you do? |
44862 | How do you know? |
44862 | How does his company feel about it? |
44862 | How soon do you think you''ll get your license? |
44862 | How''s the shoulder this morning? |
44862 | How''s the shoulder? |
44862 | How''s your wound? |
44862 | How-- how-- is Daddy? |
44862 | How? |
44862 | How? |
44862 | I guess you did n''t recognize her, did you, Louise? 44862 I mean-- you''d rather bring your instructor back with us, and fly it, would n''t you?" |
44862 | I might be killed-- and then who would take care of you? 44862 I suppose it is not so unusual now to have girls as students?" |
44862 | If I admit I''m jealous of Redhead, and say I''m sorry,conceded Ralph,"will you forgive me and go to the dance with me tonight?" |
44862 | In trouble? |
44862 | Is he downstairs now? |
44862 | Is my father still alive? |
44862 | Is n''t four days enough? 44862 Is n''t it all horrible? |
44862 | Is n''t there something you could do? |
44862 | Is she going to announce her engagement to Ralph Clavering, or Harriman Smith? |
44862 | Is something worrying you, dear? 44862 Is the world as sad as all that?" |
44862 | Is there anything at all, Linda, that I can do for you? |
44862 | It is not our custom to take students up on the first day, Miss Carlton.... Now, have you a notebook and pencil? |
44862 | It''s strange country to you? |
44862 | Just friends? |
44862 | Linda,interrupted her father, as he saw her start away,"where are you going? |
44862 | Maurice Stetson? 44862 May I be the first to congratulate you?" |
44862 | May n''t I even speak to him? |
44862 | Miss Carlton? |
44862 | Must we go back so soon, Aunt Emily? |
44862 | My present? |
44862 | No, but really--? |
44862 | No, only why did n''t you come to the house first? |
44862 | Oh, is that all? |
44862 | Oh, is that so? |
44862 | Open cockpit? |
44862 | Ought n''t there to be a trained nurse? |
44862 | Passed your physical exam, did n''t you? |
44862 | Ralph has n''t heard anything more, has he? |
44862 | Roger, would you really do that? |
44862 | Roger? 44862 Serious work?" |
44862 | So that you will know where I am, in case you need any help with your Arrow.... You-- you-- don''t mind? |
44862 | So you''re really going to learn, too? |
44862 | Solo flying? 44862 Sure you do n''t want to be with your young friends?" |
44862 | Ted Mackay? |
44862 | Ted,she said, finally,"could I have just one little talk with you, to clear things up-- before I go away?" |
44862 | The big field? 44862 The famous Lindy''s namesake?... |
44862 | Then Linda has n''t any partner? |
44862 | Then how do you explain it? 44862 Then how do you explain it?" |
44862 | Then may I ask what reason you have for wishing to see Mr. Mackay at this particular time? |
44862 | Then they were from you? |
44862 | Then you do n''t really blame me? |
44862 | Then,she pleaded, and she was radiant again with enthusiasm,"could n''t_ I_ be your responsibility?" |
44862 | This-- Mackay--he said slowly,"he is n''t your only instructor?" |
44862 | Tomorrow? |
44862 | Trying to beat her record? |
44862 | Want any help? |
44862 | Was it in a box? |
44862 | Was n''t it a dreadful experience? |
44862 | Was the man hurt so horribly? |
44862 | Was the plane a Waco? |
44862 | Well, can we? |
44862 | Well, it''s settled then, about the summer, is n''t it? |
44862 | Well, then, why was he following you? |
44862 | Well, then-- Redhead? 44862 Well, there is n''t any law that says a girl ca n''t go with two men, is there?" |
44862 | What about? |
44862 | What are you children going to do this evening? |
44862 | What are you planning to do this afternoon, dear? |
44862 | What can we do? 44862 What do you mean?" |
44862 | What do you think of that? |
44862 | What does Linda think about the affair? |
44862 | What kind of plane is it, Linda? |
44862 | What was it, my dear? |
44862 | What''s his name? |
44862 | What''s the big idea? |
44862 | What''s the fellow look like? |
44862 | What''s the matter? |
44862 | What''s the matter? |
44862 | What''s this? |
44862 | What-- what''s wrong-- Kit? |
44862 | What? |
44862 | What? |
44862 | What? |
44862 | What? |
44862 | What? |
44862 | When will the doctor be back? |
44862 | Where are we going? |
44862 | Where are you going dear? |
44862 | Where did you get''em? 44862 Where does he go?" |
44862 | Who can that be? 44862 Who do you suppose that is?" |
44862 | Whom? |
44862 | Why are n''t you going with Linda? |
44862 | Why do n''t you dismiss it, and take my car? |
44862 | Why not Taylor? |
44862 | Why not make a clean breast of it? 44862 Why not? |
44862 | Why should n''t you get it? 44862 Will they put him in jail?" |
44862 | Will we be killed? |
44862 | Will you forgive me for coming a day too late? 44862 With Ralph?" |
44862 | Wo ghen Sie? |
44862 | Wo n''t you please talk to me? |
44862 | Wondering whether they''d give their consent-- and if they did, would they worry themselves to death? |
44862 | Would it be possible for me to talk to his nurse? |
44862 | Would n''t you mind a bit, Linda, if Louise married Ralph? |
44862 | Would you be kind enough to take us to the man in charge of this field? |
44862 | Would you like to go to your room, my dear-- or do you want to see your father first? |
44862 | Would you really trust yourself to me? 44862 Yes, Daddy?" |
44862 | Yes, but Daddy, do n''t you think it''s only fair to give me a reason? |
44862 | Yes, but who sent them? |
44862 | Yes, why? |
44862 | Yes? |
44862 | Yes? |
44862 | Yes? |
44862 | Yes? |
44862 | Yes? |
44862 | Yes? |
44862 | You are rested, are n''t you? 44862 You did n''t mind my not waking up for supper last night, did you?" |
44862 | You did n''t think your old Dad would forget you, did you, Honey? |
44862 | You do like all this, do n''t you, Linda? |
44862 | You do n''t call that news, do you? 44862 You do n''t have to go that soon, do you? |
44862 | You do n''t mind, do you, Emily? |
44862 | You have been here before, Linda? |
44862 | You knew, then, that he had stolen Miss Clavering''s pearls? |
44862 | You know him? 44862 You like it?" |
44862 | You mean make it your life work? |
44862 | You mean you went around the school shouting the news that you were carrying pearls to Green Falls in an airplane? |
44862 | You mean_ if_, not_ when_, do n''t you? |
44862 | You never heard of a valuable pearl necklace that this young man was carrying from Spring City to his sister, by my daughter''s plane? |
44862 | You really believe Ted-- Mr. Mackay-- had a part in the horrible thing? |
44862 | You really like parties? 44862 You saw him?" |
44862 | You still worrying about those pearls? |
44862 | You want to do most of your learning on your own plane, do n''t you, daughter? |
44862 | You wo n''t be in any danger will you, Daddy? |
44862 | You would n''t want to camp out, anyway, would you? 44862 You''d like that, would n''t you, dear?" |
44862 | You''ll enter, wo n''t you? |
44862 | You''re both safe? 44862 You''re from his company?" |
44862 | You''re game, are n''t you? |
44862 | You''re going to a ground school in the fall-- as we used to talk about-- aren''t you? |
44862 | You''re not a bit afraid? |
44862 | You''re sure they wo n''t mind? |
44862 | You''ve been in an airplane accident? |
44862 | You? 44862 Your hair is curlier, is n''t it, Dan? |
44862 | Your plane was wrecked, was n''t it? |
44862 | Your shoulder is all right, Ted? |
44862 | _ May_ get insurance? |
44862 | ''Buy a biplane''--sounds like''Bye, Bye, Baby,''does n''t it?" |
44862 | About twenty- seven? |
44862 | After all, those two dead men deserved their fate, did n''t they? |
44862 | Air- derbys, endurance flights-- height records?" |
44862 | And how soon shall I tell Louise that you''ll be ready?" |
44862 | And since my plane saved Daddy''s life, you''re converted to them now, are n''t you?" |
44862 | And tomorrow morning at dawn we''ll go on a search.... Now, mother, can you give Mr. Mackay something to eat-- and a room?" |
44862 | And you do understand, do n''t you?" |
44862 | And,"she added as she stepped from the car,"do n''t you want to leave your car here, and let Thomas put it away?" |
44862 | Are you going far?" |
44862 | Are you teasing me?" |
44862 | At this late date?" |
44862 | Because you can get a license when you''re sixteen, ca n''t you?" |
44862 | But Lou, if his coat is here, why is n''t he?" |
44862 | But do n''t you suppose I have to go in a class with others, Daddy?" |
44862 | But how did he know that she had a plane, and if he had happened to see it, why did n''t he come to the house, and ask her permission to examine it? |
44862 | But tell me, have you decided you would like to go up in the Pursuit?" |
44862 | But what I mean is, you have n''t gone in for any competitions yet, have you? |
44862 | But what could Ted do? |
44862 | But why? |
44862 | But would n''t you like to stay and see your friends, and thank them?" |
44862 | But you''re rested now?" |
44862 | But, Daddy, where is it? |
44862 | But, by the way, did the other fellow have red hair?" |
44862 | Ca n''t we all three go together?" |
44862 | Ca n''t you take my judgment as worth something, Linda?" |
44862 | Can we drive over for him tonight?" |
44862 | Can you arrange it?" |
44862 | Cates?" |
44862 | Cates?" |
44862 | Connected with oil, was n''t he? |
44862 | Could it be that he had found the necklace? |
44862 | Could that have been your father?" |
44862 | Did Aunt Emily mean he had come? |
44862 | Did Thomas bring it up all right?" |
44862 | Did it mean that, just as he was hoping to make his mark in the world, and rendering valuable assistance to his family, all must stop? |
44862 | Did n''t you know?... |
44862 | Did they make you do that at school?" |
44862 | Do I have to tell you in so many words that young Ralph Clavering is interested in Linda?" |
44862 | Do you know him, Daddy?" |
44862 | Do you mean you''ve been up alone? |
44862 | Do you suppose that man was killed?" |
44862 | Do you think there would be any use in our going?" |
44862 | Do you understand, daughter?" |
44862 | Funny he did n''t notice anything so serious as this.... Louise, do you suppose that Roger could have done anything to it?" |
44862 | Ghosts-- or tramps?" |
44862 | Had n''t she made inside loops and Immelman turns often at school, and did n''t she know exactly what to do? |
44862 | Had they any information so far? |
44862 | Haydock?" |
44862 | He would get well, of course, but was this going to cripple him so he would n''t be able to fly? |
44862 | Honestly? |
44862 | How are you?" |
44862 | How could Ralph be so prejudiced, so cruel? |
44862 | I wonder who''s piloting?" |
44862 | I''ll get dressed right away.... And Auntie, may I have some strawberries up here, to eat after I take my shower? |
44862 | I-- I''d just as soon not see it, would n''t you, Linda?" |
44862 | If Ted really were in league with the thief, would they put him in prison too? |
44862 | Is that all right? |
44862 | Let''s see-- what year was that when he flew the Atlantic? |
44862 | Likable chap, when you first meet him, is n''t he? |
44862 | Like the old question people always ask married men:''If your mother and your wife were drowning, which one would you save?'' |
44862 | Looks honest and kind, and all that?" |
44862 | Mackay?" |
44862 | May I?" |
44862 | Mr. Mackay is such a nice boy that it is a shame he has to have enemies.... Now, what can I do for you?" |
44862 | Must she really give up his friendship? |
44862 | Now, who''ll drive us over to our''Pursuit''?" |
44862 | Now-- are you sure you are all right-- and that you can stay awake?" |
44862 | Now-- when do I start?" |
44862 | Oh, Linda, why did n''t we wake up at six?" |
44862 | Oh, how could he keep the news from his mother? |
44862 | Oh, what has happened?" |
44862 | Or is it just the heat and the rush?" |
44862 | Or was it because she was a girl that his manner seemed so superior, so condescending? |
44862 | Or would you rather have a regular breakfast in bed?" |
44862 | Ralph Clavering?" |
44862 | Remember? |
44862 | She is n''t engaged to Ralph, is she?" |
44862 | So shall I put yours away for you?" |
44862 | Something about the theft, I believe.... Well, dear, I''ll send up some raspberries-- or would you rather have cantaloupe?" |
44862 | Strange lands-- or his ranch out west-- or perhaps her mother? |
44862 | Such a handsome boy, so charming-- why did he have to be so unfair to Ted? |
44862 | Suppose it should pancake? |
44862 | That could n''t have been Mackay we met on that field-- Mackay disguised, or anything?" |
44862 | Then there were two planes?" |
44862 | Then why was he sneaking around so funny last night? |
44862 | Then, turning anxiously to Roger,"Have you any news of my father?" |
44862 | Then, turning to Linda,"What''s the German word for help?" |
44862 | Then, turning to her aunt,"But is my car here, Aunt Emily? |
44862 | Unhurt?" |
44862 | Very wealthy?" |
44862 | Was Ted really involved in the affair? |
44862 | Was it possible that this great honor should come to her, when she had merely performed her duty, and been thankful to be able to do it? |
44862 | Was this the surprise she had so mysteriously mentioned, and if so, what was Louise''s part in it? |
44862 | We could n''t buy another daughter, could we, Emily?" |
44862 | Were he and this thief in partnership, playing a wicked game, and had Ted hired the man because he would not let them know his part in the robbery? |
44862 | What could he possibly have against Ted? |
44862 | What could it all mean? |
44862 | What did she know about the wickedness of criminals? |
44862 | What good would her lovely plane be to her, if she were never allowed to pilot it herself? |
44862 | What of? |
44862 | What right had she, she asked herself, to pry into Ted''s affairs? |
44862 | What sort of costume will you wear?" |
44862 | What were a few pearls, anyway, in comparison to her precious girl? |
44862 | What were they up to now? |
44862 | What would this sort of thing do to that? |
44862 | What''s he been doing?" |
44862 | When does she wish to start?" |
44862 | Where is he?" |
44862 | Who is he? |
44862 | Why are we going out back of the house?" |
44862 | Why did n''t he come over and speak to you?" |
44862 | Why was there always some drawback to rich people, she wondered? |
44862 | Why, Emily, you do n''t think I''d be willing to take any chances with my only child, do you-- if I did n''t consider it safe?" |
44862 | Why? |
44862 | Why?... |
44862 | Without even Ralph?" |
44862 | Wo n''t that be fun?" |
44862 | Would Linda be able to guide the plane there, or must they be dashed against the tree- tops, to meet a sickening death? |
44862 | Would n''t that suit you?" |
44862 | You do n''t expect to be one of those independent girls who insist upon earning their own living, do you, dear?" |
44862 | You do n''t know which nurse it was?" |
44862 | You have n''t forgotten your promise?" |
44862 | You have n''t seen it, have you?" |
44862 | You remember Jen?" |
44862 | You seem to know my name----""There were some letters in your pocket-- don''t you remember? |
44862 | You will forgive me?" |
44862 | You will go, wo n''t you, dear?" |
44862 | You would n''t be afraid?" |
44862 | You''re Robin Hood, are n''t you?" |
44862 | You''re going with me, are n''t you?" |
44862 | You-- you heard about the necklace?" |
45417 | All right for me to shin up? |
45417 | All set? |
45417 | All set? |
45417 | An''Marse Joyce figured he''d beat it to Rooshia jes''as soon as he could put his han''s on de plans? |
45417 | And he let you go after you''d worked for him all that time? |
45417 | And how do you expect to do that without being nabbed right off the bat? |
45417 | And if your father really wrote a letter to you, and they knew it-- why did they wait nearly three months before they tried to steal it? |
45417 | And they would n''t believe you, eh? |
45417 | And what''s on the farther side of the Joyce property? |
45417 | And what''s the other? |
45417 | And what,asked the portly gentleman, coming at once to the point,"will you take for that motor, Miss Dixon?" |
45417 | And when you sight the historic mansion? |
45417 | And why did they start in using strong arm stuff right off the bat? |
45417 | And you want to come? 45417 And-- and you carried me all this way?" |
45417 | Are n''t hurt, are you? |
45417 | Are you deaf? |
45417 | Are you hurt, Bill? |
45417 | Are you just stubborn, or in your dotage? 45417 Betty, be- have, will you? |
45417 | Betty, you stay here, and--"And have them break in the back door while you two are in the front hall? 45417 But do n''t you see? |
45417 | But do n''t you think you''d better get out your revolver, Dorothy? 45417 But how come, Dorothy?" |
45417 | But how on earth can we find it in the dark? |
45417 | But how on earth-- did they say anything about the contents of the letter? |
45417 | But if Joyce was in business with Mr. Conway, why did n''t Stoker mention that? |
45417 | But is the rope long enough? |
45417 | But not so good on a rainy night, eh? 45417 But please tell me what it is you''re trying to find?" |
45417 | But suppose this one is? |
45417 | But suppose those men have come back? |
45417 | But tell me-- what did you do to that crew outside? |
45417 | But that does n''t get us anywhere, does it? |
45417 | But there is a way out? |
45417 | But what plans? |
45417 | But what''ll you do about my slicker, Bill? 45417 But what''s that rabbit got to do with our tracks?" |
45417 | But what''s the use of hangin''round? |
45417 | But what_ was_ Joyce after? |
45417 | But who is this Mr. Joyce you speak of, Uncle? |
45417 | But who''s going to wash all these dishes? |
45417 | But will the tree hold us both? 45417 But your wet clothes, Miss Dixon?" |
45417 | But-- suppose you are n''t able to get to a window? |
45417 | By the way, Mrs. Johnson, I wonder if we can trespass on your good humor still further? |
45417 | Can you run now? |
45417 | Catch anything? |
45417 | Count yourself out? 45417 D''you think I''d let_ Wispy_ mash up my best friend? |
45417 | Den yo''all knows Marse George? |
45417 | Did you bring some extra gas for_ Wispy_? |
45417 | Did you find the book he wanted? |
45417 | Did you get the police? |
45417 | Did you speak? |
45417 | Do n''t answer me back that way, do you hear? |
45417 | Do n''t tell me you can actually see to dodge these branches and tree trunks? |
45417 | Do you come from New Canaan? |
45417 | Do you happen to have an extra car that we could borrow for a few hours? |
45417 | Do you happen to have the copy that was sent you, here in the house? |
45417 | Do you know where Mr. Joyce and his men are now? |
45417 | Do you know where they are? |
45417 | Do you know who he is? |
45417 | Do you mind saying how much? |
45417 | Do you really think they''ve gone? |
45417 | Do you think I''m enjoying this? 45417 Do you think he really is mixed up with J. J. J. in this business?" |
45417 | Do you think it possible that old Lewis knew that your Father wrote you that letter-- and believes that it''s in this house? 45417 Do you think the letter Mr. Conway is supposed to have written Stoker could possibly have had anything to do with patents?" |
45417 | Do? 45417 Dollars?" |
45417 | Dorothy''s some little bargainer, ai n''t she? |
45417 | Everything all right? |
45417 | Going to call up Stoker? |
45417 | Got any ideas? |
45417 | Got your knitting and everything? 45417 Had n''t I better call in Marse Bill?" |
45417 | Had n''t I better carry it down the hill? |
45417 | Had n''t you better introduce your friends? 45417 Has Mr. Lewis ever spoken to you about it?" |
45417 | Has yo''all heard de news, Liza? |
45417 | Have you read it, Conway? |
45417 | He''s such a good- looking boy, too-- don''t tell me they''ve killed him or anything? |
45417 | Heard about you both-- who has n''t? 45417 Him and me both, eh? |
45417 | Ho-- how come I ca n''t do it, Abe? 45417 How about it, Uncle Abe? |
45417 | How about me? |
45417 | How about me? |
45417 | How about the chances we''ll take in breaking into Nearma? |
45417 | How about the coffee, Bill? |
45417 | How about the fame you won in the diamond smuggling case? 45417 How come Marse Bill was able ter build dat engin''? |
45417 | How come, uncle? |
45417 | How did you find out? |
45417 | How did you happen to go there last night? |
45417 | How did you know there was a river down in the valley? |
45417 | How do we get to it, Uncle? |
45417 | How do we know that friend Joyce has n''t got hold of Stoker and possibly Terry, too? |
45417 | How do you do it? |
45417 | How do you figure that? |
45417 | How do you get that way, Betty? 45417 How far does it go?" |
45417 | How in the world did you manage this? |
45417 | How many are still here? |
45417 | How safe? |
45417 | How should I know? |
45417 | How''s that? |
45417 | I said why keep the secret to yourself? 45417 I suppose you know the cook over there, Uncle?" |
45417 | I suppose you want me to open it? |
45417 | I wonder why Father did n''t tell me of those plans? |
45417 | In other words, why must you put in your foot every time you open your mouth? 45417 Is folks a- follerin''yo''chill''un?" |
45417 | Is n''t he perfectly sweet? |
45417 | Is n''t it terrible? |
45417 | Is that all clear? |
45417 | Is that you, Dorothy? |
45417 | Is there another way? |
45417 | Is your ladyship ready to go now? |
45417 | It''s about time we beat it over to Stoker''s, do n''t you think? |
45417 | It''s none of my particular business, of course, but would you mind telling me the reason for all this rough house? 45417 Jones''Aircraft Power Plants, was n''t it?" |
45417 | Joyce could n''t try to steal patents registered in Mr. Conway''s name, could he? |
45417 | Let''s see-- where was I? 45417 Look here, supper''s nearly ready, and since I''ve set everybody else to work, suppose I give you a job, too? |
45417 | Mind if I come in for a minute or two? |
45417 | Mr. Lewis, do you mind if I take it home with me? |
45417 | Must be what? |
45417 | Near ma? |
45417 | Nice lady- like reputation, what? |
45417 | No-- have you? |
45417 | Not afraid to stay here, are you? |
45417 | Not very subtle, were they? 45417 Obey orders?" |
45417 | Oh, is he? 45417 Oh, is that so? |
45417 | Oh, you do, do you? |
45417 | Oh,_ yeah_? |
45417 | Old Lewis? |
45417 | Open up, do you hear, River? 45417 Questions?" |
45417 | Right here? 45417 River? |
45417 | Say, are you crazy, or am I? |
45417 | Say, it''s great, the way you''ve pitched in here-- did you have a hard time finding things? |
45417 | See here, will you pipe down? |
45417 | So you think it was your tracks we followed? |
45417 | So you''d been surprised, eh? |
45417 | Some wonderworker, is n''t she? |
45417 | Surely you''re not going to show a light? |
45417 | Taking a--_warm_? |
45417 | That''s interesting-- wonder what he wants with George? |
45417 | That''s the question--_can_ we do anything? |
45417 | The letter is--? |
45417 | The one you saw, Terry? |
45417 | The super''s house is right across the reservation from here, if I recall rightly? |
45417 | The white one in the trees? |
45417 | Then who is? |
45417 | Think we''d better get back to the house? |
45417 | Think you can find the cart road? |
45417 | Think you could pilot us down there and give those guys in the woods the miss? |
45417 | Those guys below us know we''re up here, so what does it matter? |
45417 | Turn to the right? |
45417 | Uncle Abe,she said, looking straight into his shining eyes,"do you really like living up there in the woods, all by yourself?" |
45417 | Wat''s all dis I''m a- hearin''? |
45417 | We want some clothesline, to tie up these here nuisances-- an''if you do n''t cough some up right now-- I''ll bump you off, see? |
45417 | Well, I apologize for us all,Bill leaned across the table,"we were only kidding you-- weren''t we, Betty?" |
45417 | Well, Uncle? |
45417 | Well, are you game? |
45417 | Well, then you must have read about Mr. Bolton, here, too? 45417 Well, we''ve got to get off this reservation-- how are we going to do it?" |
45417 | Well, what of it? 45417 Well, what''s the dope?" |
45417 | Well, what''s the dope? |
45417 | Well, what''s the good word now, Dorothy? |
45417 | Well, why ca n''t you help me? |
45417 | Well, why do n''t you speak? |
45417 | Well-- what do you think we''ve run into-- a college houseparty or something? |
45417 | Well? |
45417 | Whar dey at? |
45417 | What I mean is, could you hear the bell ring in Stoker''s house? |
45417 | What I want to know,she said in conclusion,"is how they happened to catch you napping-- and what''s become of George Conway and Betty?" |
45417 | What are we going to do? |
45417 | What are you doing? |
45417 | What are you talking about? |
45417 | What are you trying to do, Bill, evade my question? |
45417 | What are you waiting for? |
45417 | What business is that of yours? |
45417 | What can I do for you? |
45417 | What can those people be after if it is n''t the patents on Mr. Conway''s inventions? |
45417 | What d''you take us for-- a pair of fools? 45417 What dey doin''uphyar in de woods at dis time o''night?" |
45417 | What did I tell you? |
45417 | What did his card say, I mean? |
45417 | What do you plan to do? 45417 What fo''yo''all chasin''dese hyar chillun in de woods?" |
45417 | What happened tonight, before we came? |
45417 | What if they wo n''t let us in? |
45417 | What is it you''re driving at? |
45417 | What is it? |
45417 | What kept you so long, Bill? |
45417 | What of it? 45417 What on earth is it?" |
45417 | What patents? |
45417 | What price rock salt? |
45417 | What rope? |
45417 | What say? 45417 What say?" |
45417 | What say? |
45417 | What say? |
45417 | What say? |
45417 | What trails were you on? |
45417 | What tree? |
45417 | What''ll I do if it''s locked? |
45417 | What''s become of them? |
45417 | What''s that got to do with it? 45417 What''s the matter?" |
45417 | What''s the next move? |
45417 | What''s your big idea, Terry? |
45417 | What-- what are you afraid of, Dorothy? |
45417 | What-- what''s the matter? |
45417 | What? 45417 What?" |
45417 | Where am I? |
45417 | Where are the plans, and what has the book to do with them? |
45417 | Where are we? |
45417 | Where are your visitors? |
45417 | Where did all these swell eggs come from, Uncle? |
45417 | Where do they keep the bread box in this house, anyway? |
45417 | Where do we go from here? |
45417 | Where do you get this''we''stuff? |
45417 | Where do you suppose it goes? |
45417 | Where have that boy and girl gone to? |
45417 | Which one is that? |
45417 | Which way is that woodlot trail from here? |
45417 | Who are you-- and what do you want? |
45417 | Who dat? |
45417 | Who goes first? 45417 Who was that man, Uncle Abe?" |
45417 | Who won the game? |
45417 | Who would? |
45417 | Who''s there? |
45417 | Why are you so sure? |
45417 | Why do n''t you do something, Chick? |
45417 | Why not get them up here now? |
45417 | Why not? 45417 Why so sarcastic?" |
45417 | Why? 45417 Wonder who he''s working for?" |
45417 | Yeah? 45417 Yes, yes, what of it?" |
45417 | Yes? 45417 Yes?" |
45417 | You did? |
45417 | You do n''t know? 45417 You mean-- where we''re bound for?" |
45417 | You mean-- which he left to Stoker? |
45417 | You must be almost as good as Betty that is, I mean--"Who''s taking my name in vain? |
45417 | You say that his father and Mr. Joyce were friends-- that they had dealings of some sort together? |
45417 | You think they may still be in the offing? |
45417 | You think, then, that he sold them before his death? |
45417 | You''ve seen him before? |
45417 | _ George?_exploded Dorothy. |
45417 | _ He_ talked loud enough,--quite an old gentleman, is n''t he? |
45417 | _ We?_Dorothy''s tone was richly sarcastic. |
45417 | _ Where?_they cried in chorus. |
45417 | A cup of tea, now, to warm you up and some of these nice crisp crullers I made yesterday? |
45417 | All sereno here, I take it?" |
45417 | All set?" |
45417 | An''what do we use fer rope?" |
45417 | And I suppose, after being up here for nearly ten years, you can find your way about in those woods?" |
45417 | And how''s Betty tonight? |
45417 | And to be honest, how can you expect me to guess the right answers when you do n''t know them yourself? |
45417 | And what am I to do while you''re in the house mixing it up with those thugs? |
45417 | And what is my important work to consist of?" |
45417 | Answer me, ca n''t you?" |
45417 | Any place in this hotel where I can wash and slick up a bit, Uncle?" |
45417 | Bad night, is n''t it?" |
45417 | Been reading the British poets or something?" |
45417 | Bill Bolton, the flyer--?" |
45417 | Bill, do you think they''ll find the chimney?" |
45417 | Buckshot, at that distance?" |
45417 | But are you sure I ca n''t tempt you to stay for Sunday dinner? |
45417 | But how did you happen to be in here?" |
45417 | But maybe there was no firm-- of Joyce and Conway? |
45417 | But tell me, Auntie-- do you know where they''re keeping this young man?" |
45417 | But there''s no hurry about your leavin'', is there? |
45417 | But what did such trifles matter when one was bent upon a great achievement? |
45417 | But what do you think''s happened?" |
45417 | But where are Betty and George?" |
45417 | By the way, do they teach English or just plain Connecticut Yankee at the New Canaan High? |
45417 | By the way, which side of the river have you got the bus parked?" |
45417 | Call Terry in, will you? |
45417 | Can we come in out of the wet for a little while?" |
45417 | Can you hear what they''re saying in the next room?" |
45417 | Chapter VIII THE CHIMNEY Then on her right she heard a soft rustling, immediately followed by a low call:"Dorothy, where are you?" |
45417 | Chapter XIV THE LION''S DEN"No answer at all?" |
45417 | Could you slide down ours and untie that from the bushes, then shin up again?" |
45417 | Did you leave your gun in the library, George?" |
45417 | Do n''t you remember the movies last night? |
45417 | Do you expect me to stick out here with the car and see that somebody does n''t steal the tires?" |
45417 | Do you feel able to go on now?" |
45417 | Do you know what happened to their car?" |
45417 | Do you think I''m going to let you walk into that place alone?" |
45417 | Do you want them out after us? |
45417 | Ever been in the Reservation, Bill?" |
45417 | Except--"here Dorothy looked stern,"I do n''t approve of your housekeeping methods-- I had to scour the frying pan twice, sir, do you realize that?" |
45417 | Have you any suggestions to give us?" |
45417 | Have you boys had supper?" |
45417 | He was such a darling looking boy and--""My goodness-- what have his looks got to do with it? |
45417 | Hear it just over there to the right?" |
45417 | How about you, Uncle Abe?" |
45417 | How are you making out?" |
45417 | How can any of us learn anything unless you give Stoker a chance to get on with his story?" |
45417 | How dat man goin''ter keep all dose young folks locked in his house while he try to sell dem plans? |
45417 | How did you get here?" |
45417 | How did you get it?" |
45417 | How do you know Joyce''s men have n''t got them tied up in the house?" |
45417 | How in the wide world did you ever get rouge on the end of your nose? |
45417 | How is it done?" |
45417 | How would you like to live in quarters over our garage and work for my father? |
45417 | How''ll that be?" |
45417 | I hope you do n''t mind my mentioning such a prosaic thing-- but do you happen to have anything to eat in the house?" |
45417 | I thought dat de plans was lost?" |
45417 | I''m soaked nearly to my waist-- how about you?" |
45417 | If Mr. Conway still owned patent rights on his inventions, why were n''t they mentioned in the will?" |
45417 | If there is one, how is it going to help us?" |
45417 | If you know the way out, why do n''t you say so?" |
45417 | Is dat what yo''all wanter know, ma''am?" |
45417 | Is it far away?" |
45417 | Is n''t it possible that Mr. Joyce may have acted as Mr. Conway''s agent-- sold the inventions for him, perhaps? |
45417 | Is that clear to you, Betty?" |
45417 | Is there much farther to go?" |
45417 | Johnson?" |
45417 | Joyce?" |
45417 | Let''s see-- where was I?" |
45417 | May I use your telephone?" |
45417 | Now tell me-- are you going to pull yourself together and be of some help? |
45417 | Park the car near the road, hike back through the woods and cut over toward the house from that side?" |
45417 | Pass the word on to the rest of the boys about them dead beats that''s botherin''people on the Reservation, will you?" |
45417 | People who live in glass houses, you know--?" |
45417 | Pretty good guess, eh?" |
45417 | Remember what I trotted into with Betty at Stoker''s house?" |
45417 | Snap out of it, wo n''t you, Betty?" |
45417 | So do n''t put him wise, will you?" |
45417 | Talk of hunting needles in a--""But do we need it?" |
45417 | That is, I s''pose they''re yours?" |
45417 | That''s a bad eye you''ve got-- been in a fight?" |
45417 | There''s another-- hear it?" |
45417 | They said they''d come for the letter Father had left for me to read after his death--""And you did n''t give it to them?" |
45417 | This young lady in overalls is Miss Dixon, I take it?" |
45417 | Turn your mind upon the answer of that dear old song,''Where do we go from here?''" |
45417 | Wat you want I should do, Miss Do''thy?" |
45417 | We''ll talk it over at supper, shall we?" |
45417 | Whar was dey?" |
45417 | What are we going to do about it?" |
45417 | What can we do but knock them up and ask for shelter?" |
45417 | What could have happened to him? |
45417 | What could his objective be? |
45417 | What do you bet I spot the motive in this mysterious case of Stoker''s?" |
45417 | What do you pretend you were doing, anyway?" |
45417 | What do you say?" |
45417 | What do you suppose they were after?" |
45417 | What is it, Uncle?" |
45417 | What on earth was he going to do now? |
45417 | What river? |
45417 | When I could n''t find the book for old Lewis, what do you think he said?" |
45417 | When yo''alls done wid dem, p''raps yo''ll wake de young missy, an''carry de bucket in yonder?" |
45417 | Where are they?" |
45417 | Where are you, anyway?" |
45417 | Where do you want me to start?" |
45417 | Where''s your boy friend?" |
45417 | Where?" |
45417 | Who is dis hyar boy wid you, Uncle?" |
45417 | Who yo''all a- lookin''fo''?" |
45417 | Who''s going to do the hunting?" |
45417 | Why did n''t we think of him before?" |
45417 | Why did n''t you wake me up?" |
45417 | Why did those men attack you and tie you up-- what were they doing around here?" |
45417 | Why was Hilltop sold?" |
45417 | Wonder what the J in John J. Joyce stands for?" |
45417 | Wonder what''s become of Stoker and Betty?" |
45417 | You came up this way, did n''t you?" |
45417 | You can go into the dining room and set the table.--Bill, you''re a good cook-- how about starting the coffee? |
45417 | You must be nearly dead--""Well, there have been times when I''ve felt more peppy--""How could you, Bill? |
45417 | You or me?" |
45417 | You want that shoe so as to prevent anyone else from finding it, the men who are chasing us, for instance?" |
45417 | You''d never take her for the same person, would you?" |
45417 | You-- killed them? |
45417 | _ Where are your visitors?_"The old man spat with great precision on to a glowing cinder. |
45417 | does n''t she?" |
45417 | he thundered,"What do you mean by bandying words with me?" |
45417 | so you put the spotlight on me, do you?" |
48478 | A fake? |
48478 | A long trip? |
48478 | About how much? |
48478 | All alone? |
48478 | All right, then let''s forget her.... Can you stay for dinner, Linda? |
48478 | An airplane? |
48478 | And do I have to fork out another hundred? |
48478 | And how about the Pursuit? 48478 And how would you live, after you finish at the school?" |
48478 | And if anything should happen, so that you had to come down in the water, would it float? |
48478 | And if we should happen to locate the man, what shall we do? 48478 And then you will want to fly back home?" |
48478 | And they''ve actually agreed to sell this to you? |
48478 | And use up all your money? |
48478 | And what did you say? |
48478 | And what, Daughter? |
48478 | And when shall I hear definitely from you? |
48478 | And why not get married? |
48478 | And will you promise me tomorrow night, Linda? |
48478 | And will_ you_ belong to the club? |
48478 | Are n''t you cold? |
48478 | Are n''t you taking an awful chance letting her off? |
48478 | Are they? |
48478 | Are you a pilot yet, Kitty? |
48478 | Are you crazy? |
48478 | Are you in earnest? |
48478 | Are you ready to confess? |
48478 | Are you sure you do n''t love Ted Mackay? |
48478 | Are you sure, Harry? |
48478 | At the party? |
48478 | Autogiro? |
48478 | Because if this man Hofstatter did n''t buy from the Convent, who did? 48478 Bess?" |
48478 | Business? |
48478 | But Daddy, are n''t you going to even try to solve the mystery? |
48478 | But Daddy, why? |
48478 | But are n''t you the young lady who''s supposed to be so interested in aviation? |
48478 | But as a loan? 48478 But do you know the way?" |
48478 | But how could she ever know we were here? 48478 But how could they, Daddy?" |
48478 | But how could we see him? |
48478 | But how did they discover him? |
48478 | But how did you happen on such a thing as this? |
48478 | But ought n''t you to let her know immediately that the wedding will be postponed? 48478 But perhaps we could Page 166:["Locked up? |
48478 | But suppose Kitty drops him as she did Maurice, then what will happen to the poor people who have invested their money in the club? |
48478 | But tell me, Miss Carlton, have you heard of any others who are planning to try for this prize? |
48478 | But was n''t it hard luck for her? |
48478 | But what can we do, Lou? |
48478 | But what has that to do with me, Ralph? 48478 But what shall we say to him?" |
48478 | But what? |
48478 | But where are we going? |
48478 | But where is Anna Smith? |
48478 | But why be so stingy about yourself? 48478 But why did you wait all this time to come to a doctor?" |
48478 | But why should I make it possible for you to win the prize, when Miss Haydock and I want to win it ourselves? |
48478 | But why? |
48478 | But you are willing for me to go to the ground school? |
48478 | But you do like me? |
48478 | But you wo n''t be flying for a while now, will you Miss Carlton? |
48478 | But-- this doctor in Philadelphia----? |
48478 | By the way, have you picked out your plane? |
48478 | By the way, where is she? 48478 Ca n''t you guess, Daddy?" |
48478 | Can you come in here a minute, dear? |
48478 | Can you imagine her in Paris, Linda? 48478 Can you spare the time-- say about three o''clock-- from your social engagements?" |
48478 | Could I-- take Miss Haydock with me? |
48478 | Daddy, are you as happy in your new work as I am in mine? |
48478 | Did Linda tell you about it? |
48478 | Did n''t they promise you? |
48478 | Did n''t you get my telegram, Aunt Emily? |
48478 | Did n''t you try to ruin Linda''s life? |
48478 | Did seventy- six people actually buy thousand- dollar bonds? |
48478 | Did you call him Harriman? |
48478 | Did you see her? |
48478 | Did you send her one, Linda? |
48478 | Do me a favor, Harry, old man? |
48478 | Do n''t you just love it the way other people always want to run your life? |
48478 | Do n''t you like her? 48478 Do we need bail or anything?" |
48478 | Do you happen to know a man named J. W. Carwein-- an importer and wholesale dealer in fine linens? |
48478 | Do you happen to know the young lady flyers, Miss Smith? |
48478 | Do you mind if I do? |
48478 | Do you really mean that, Lou? 48478 Do you think we ought to change our clothing before we order dinner?" |
48478 | Does n''t she have her own plane any more? |
48478 | Does this mean you wo n''t fly with me to Paris? |
48478 | Even if I rush the trip? |
48478 | Everything all right? |
48478 | Flying? 48478 Flying?" |
48478 | Had n''t I better give you some for your ticket home, and for a telegram to your husband? |
48478 | Had you marked the goods too high, Daddy? |
48478 | Happened? 48478 Has Ted come yet?" |
48478 | Has anything happened? |
48478 | Has she given up the idea of competing for that prize? |
48478 | Have a good time, Lou? |
48478 | Have her people money? |
48478 | Have you a date for tonight, Lou? |
48478 | Have you written that to Ted? |
48478 | How are you today? |
48478 | How can I, Bess? |
48478 | How can I-- now? 48478 How could she ever dump out our gas, in so short a time?" |
48478 | How do I know? |
48478 | How do you happen to be here, Ted? |
48478 | How do you know they went on a long trip? |
48478 | How else would they get it? |
48478 | How long are they staying? |
48478 | I guess you do n''t even know yet whether you''re in the U.S. or not? |
48478 | I may ask you again? |
48478 | I mean so high that this other man could afford to sell for less, and still make money? |
48478 | I''ll get my map and directions tomorrow? |
48478 | I''m not being selfish-- and dragging you with me? |
48478 | Imported? |
48478 | In case I do n''t get another dance with you tonight? |
48478 | Into business? |
48478 | Is Lou going? |
48478 | Is the carfare there very much? 48478 It''s always the future with you.... Well, what''s on your mind now?" |
48478 | Jail? |
48478 | Just what is your business, Miss Hulbert? |
48478 | Linda darling, have n''t you guessed what it is all about? |
48478 | Linda, do you feel very terrible about losing the Arrow? |
48478 | Linda, will you tell me the truth about this: Would you mind if I-- I-- cared a whole lot about Ted? |
48478 | Linda-- Louise--? |
48478 | Linda? 48478 Locked up? |
48478 | Lou, are you safe? |
48478 | Lou, will you go riding with me tomorrow night, and paint the town red, because it''s my last night home? |
48478 | Louise wo n''t go with you now, will she? |
48478 | Making a get- away, are you? |
48478 | May I say something? |
48478 | May I see it? |
48478 | Me? |
48478 | Miss Carlton would rather stay over night, anyway, would n''t you? |
48478 | Miss Hulbert? |
48478 | Mr. Clavering is very kindly donating the land-- two hundred acres north of Spring City, is n''t it, Kitty? |
48478 | Next week? |
48478 | No mechanic-- no navigator with you? |
48478 | No? 48478 Not love?" |
48478 | Now tell me,he said,"what you two young ladies were doing flying a plane up here on the border in the dead of winter?" |
48478 | O. K. But Linda, have you considered snow and sleet? 48478 Of course it''s expensive?" |
48478 | Of course we fly? |
48478 | Oh, Lou, you really want to? |
48478 | Oh, can you give us shelter, please? |
48478 | Oh, is that so? |
48478 | Oh, yeah? 48478 Ought we to wash these dishes?" |
48478 | Pardon me, but is it something personal? 48478 Really? |
48478 | Reform? |
48478 | Remember the day I showed my handkerchief to the girls, and explained all about where Daddy was getting them? 48478 Smugglers?" |
48478 | So you can fly over the ocean-- after that prize? |
48478 | So you''re ordering a Bellanca long- distance mono- plane? |
48478 | Sure it is n''t because that will be near Kansas City-- where he is? |
48478 | Sure you do n''t mind flying? |
48478 | Thank you, Mr. Eckers,replied Linda, blushing at his praise...."How long shall I be gone-- on this trip, I mean?" |
48478 | That I could n''t decide, without talking to you.... Now, what do you think? |
48478 | The landing-- or the birds? |
48478 | The last one? 48478 Then it''s all settled?" |
48478 | Then-- then-- instead of a trust fund could I have the money for two purposes? |
48478 | Then-- then--She clutched her companion''s arm, desperately--"Then we jump?" |
48478 | Today? 48478 Tomorrow?" |
48478 | Tonight? |
48478 | Two down? |
48478 | Very well.... Have you guessed what I wanted to talk to you about? |
48478 | We ca n''t keep anything from you, can we, Linda? |
48478 | Well, Miss Carlton, we''ve been having some excitement, eh, what? |
48478 | Well, do you know what I believe? 48478 Well, what is it?" |
48478 | What do you mean? |
48478 | What do you say if we cut out the stop at Montreal altogether? |
48478 | What do you see? |
48478 | What do you think? |
48478 | What explanation? 48478 What for?" |
48478 | What for? |
48478 | What happened to you last night? |
48478 | What happened to your plane? |
48478 | What has changed? |
48478 | What has gone wrong? |
48478 | What is the matter? 48478 What is the name of the firm?" |
48478 | What kind of course, Miss Carlton? |
48478 | What made you think of coming to tell me, Harry? |
48478 | What makes you say that? |
48478 | What sort of thing would you prefer? |
48478 | What will you wear? |
48478 | What with? |
48478 | What wreck? |
48478 | What young ladies? |
48478 | What''s that? |
48478 | What''s that? |
48478 | What''s the matter, Bess? |
48478 | What''s the matter, Linda? |
48478 | What''s the matter, Linda? |
48478 | What''s the matter, Ralph? |
48478 | What''s this? |
48478 | What''s your big news, Ralph? |
48478 | What''s your idea of a way to spend our time here? |
48478 | What? |
48478 | What? |
48478 | What? |
48478 | When can I start? |
48478 | When did she go? |
48478 | When did this happen? |
48478 | When do you expect to go? |
48478 | When do you plan to fly across the ocean? |
48478 | Where are you going, Linda? |
48478 | Where are your manners, Jim? |
48478 | Where have you been? |
48478 | Where have you been? |
48478 | Where is Amy Johnson? |
48478 | Where is Lou? |
48478 | Where is she going now? |
48478 | Where would we ever get the money for such a plane? |
48478 | Where''s that Hulbert woman? |
48478 | Where? |
48478 | Who can it be? |
48478 | Who do? |
48478 | Who is this Lieutenant? |
48478 | Who said anything about a forced landing? |
48478 | Who''s there? |
48478 | Who? 48478 Why all the dignity?" |
48478 | Why do n''t you do it? |
48478 | Why have n''t I a''Daddy''like that? |
48478 | Why not drive in once a week with vegetables? 48478 Why not try having it cleaned?" |
48478 | Why the sigh, Linda? |
48478 | Why two? |
48478 | Why, Ralph? |
48478 | Why-- now? |
48478 | Why? 48478 Why?" |
48478 | Will you believe it, when I tell you that my heart just bled for you? |
48478 | Will you come here and go to the dance with us? |
48478 | Will you give me a job here when I finish? |
48478 | Will you start a trousseau with it? |
48478 | With another girl? |
48478 | Wo n''t a train seem slow? |
48478 | Wo n''t it be marvelous to be home? 48478 Wo n''t you even listen to our story?" |
48478 | Wo n''t you please send my father a telegram? |
48478 | Would I? |
48478 | Would n''t you rather be sledding, my dear? |
48478 | Would you ever believe, a thing like that if you read it? |
48478 | Yeah? 48478 Yes, it seems funny, does n''t it? |
48478 | Yes, why are n''t we? 48478 Yes?" |
48478 | You are Linda Carlton? |
48478 | You are Miss Smith? |
48478 | You are going to let me go? |
48478 | You are sure you are not afraid? |
48478 | You did n''t bring any coffee, did you? |
48478 | You did n''t see Linda or Louise-- in the course of your trip, did you? |
48478 | You did n''t? 48478 You do love to get me into society, do n''t you, Aunt Emily?" |
48478 | You do n''t mean that you expect to take a regular paid position in aviation after you graduate, do you? |
48478 | You do n''t suppose any of those spoiled babies would fly in this kind of weather, do you? 48478 You girls have never flown in a snowstorm, have you?" |
48478 | You have? |
48478 | You mean Lieutenant Hulbert? |
48478 | You mean marry Kitty Clavering? |
48478 | You mean she has the Club''s plane again? |
48478 | You mean that? |
48478 | You mean to try to find him in Plattsburg? |
48478 | You mean women like Amelia Earhart? |
48478 | You mean you want us to go on eating all night? |
48478 | You mean you''ll always have Ted, in case things go wrong with your plane? |
48478 | You really cared-- for my sake? |
48478 | You really think it''s necessary? |
48478 | You really wo n''t go, Lou? |
48478 | You really would like to be married next week? |
48478 | You said outside of Montreal, did n''t you? |
48478 | You want my son? |
48478 | You wo n''t need the money, Daddy? |
48478 | You''ll come back and have dinner with us, wo n''t you, Ted? |
48478 | You''re afraid I wo n''t be able to support you, later on? |
48478 | You''re not afraid, are you, Linda? |
48478 | You''re not nervous, after your narrow escape? |
48478 | You-- you will stay with me? |
48478 | Your bridesmaid? |
48478 | Your husband has a farm, has n''t he? |
48478 | Your names----? |
48478 | Your white chiffon? |
48478 | ''Our Lady of Mercy,''is n''t it?" |
48478 | ( Why, oh why, she wondered, is everybody against me?) |
48478 | A new plane? |
48478 | And Bess had mentioned her brother-- was it possible he had lost money too? |
48478 | And did n''t you admit you''d just come from that Convent, and did n''t you show my friend Marshall here, some of the goods?" |
48478 | And how do we know your plane was n''t a gray Moth? |
48478 | And in the darkness, what hope was there of finding a tree to climb? |
48478 | And what are you planning now?" |
48478 | And where would it get you in the end? |
48478 | And you got your license when, Miss Carlton?" |
48478 | Are n''t you pleased, Linda?" |
48478 | Are you all well again after that terrible accident?" |
48478 | Are you going on with the chase?" |
48478 | Are you still game?" |
48478 | Beach?" |
48478 | Because we have n''t heard from them since the twenty- seventh?" |
48478 | But I thought she was practically engaged to Maurice Stetson?" |
48478 | But I''m sure everything he has is tied up in his business.... Linda, why are n''t we rich like Kitty Clavering?" |
48478 | But Kitty, have you any idea what a good plane costs? |
48478 | But can you afford it?" |
48478 | But do you remember hearing a plane land near to ours, while we were in the Convent?" |
48478 | But how could they hope to, against such an experienced flyer as Miss Hulbert? |
48478 | But if I could borrow a little?" |
48478 | But seriously, Linda, could I or could n''t I wear it Saturday night to that dance Ted and his boy friend are taking us to?" |
48478 | But tell me, Kitty, is the club- house all done?" |
48478 | But that''s not quite fair to Harry, is it?" |
48478 | But was n''t it lucky we had something to eat at the Convent?" |
48478 | But we would n''t dare take a chance in your Pursuit, would we?" |
48478 | But what about your Aunt Emily? |
48478 | But what shall we say when we call?" |
48478 | But where were they now? |
48478 | But why not send home for another?" |
48478 | But you could never raise that much, could you, Kit?" |
48478 | Ca n''t we be married now?... |
48478 | Ca n''t you map out our route to New York tonight, and send him a special- delivery letter? |
48478 | Can you come? |
48478 | Can you get us a taxi?" |
48478 | Can you picture those holidays in a boarding- house?" |
48478 | Can you wait about twenty minutes?" |
48478 | Can you-- could you find a way to get us to a train tomorrow?" |
48478 | Could you find something for me, Auntie?" |
48478 | Dad has a big idea-- you know how he longs to get me into business? |
48478 | Did he mean to kidnap her and her chum? |
48478 | Did you give her the once- over yourself? |
48478 | Did you know, by the way, that Louise refused to buy a bond?" |
48478 | Do n''t you know it''s a government regulation that wrecked planes must be reported as soon as possible?" |
48478 | Do n''t you think it''s an absolute wash- out?" |
48478 | Do you suppose that could be done, Bess?" |
48478 | Do you think she will worry?" |
48478 | Does n''t it sound thrilling?" |
48478 | Even now, when you have my confession-- when I tell you I''ve reformed?" |
48478 | Give up a wonderful trip like this, just to go to an old dance? |
48478 | Had they crossed into New York state-- were they flying in the northern part, or were they still in Canada? |
48478 | Had they merely been forced down in some lonely spot where there was no means of telegraphing, or had they met with some more serious accident? |
48478 | Harris?" |
48478 | Have n''t they always come through with flying colors?" |
48478 | Have you your flashlight handy?" |
48478 | Hofstatter''--or rather, Mr. Hofstatter''s employer?" |
48478 | How about it, Aunt Emily?" |
48478 | How about this cerise taffeta? |
48478 | How are you going to prove that? |
48478 | How could she have gotten word of your father''s business?" |
48478 | How do your feet feel this morning?" |
48478 | How long could they endure the cold? |
48478 | How much do you care for him?" |
48478 | How much food were they carrying, and what about blankets? |
48478 | How to get out of these woods?" |
48478 | I suppose you''re not flying anywhere today?" |
48478 | I''ll let your father tell you while I go to look after the dinner.... You''re all right, dear? |
48478 | I''ll never be able to walk, and how can we get to civilization if we do n''t?" |
48478 | I''m afraid you could n''t raise so much money, could you?" |
48478 | I''m not supposed to teach her, or anything like that, am I?" |
48478 | Is your father sick-- or hurt?" |
48478 | It was close quarters in the little cabin plane, but who cared? |
48478 | Kidnaped?" |
48478 | Kidnapped?" |
48478 | Kidnapped?" |
48478 | Linda smiled; how could she tell her aunt, without appearing conceited, that Louise was not capable of such a feat? |
48478 | Louis?" |
48478 | Louise?" |
48478 | Make an appointment?" |
48478 | No accidents?" |
48478 | Not really?" |
48478 | Not that I''d put it past her-- but how could she possibly find out, or guess what we were up to?" |
48478 | Now Kitty, when do we eat?" |
48478 | Now, at this late date, was her aunt going to put forth objections? |
48478 | One of those new- fangled autogiros?" |
48478 | Or is it a house- party?" |
48478 | Remember how interested she was-- and even knew the name of the Convent?" |
48478 | Rescue was surely at hand; the question now arose: what sort of human being had them at his mercy? |
48478 | She cut classes today-- isn''t sick, is she?" |
48478 | Suppose Linda could get through the fog with her Arrow, would the trip be all in vain? |
48478 | That Louise will go with you now, as she promised?" |
48478 | Then he suddenly remembered her proposed flight over the ocean, and stopped:"But Linda, is n''t it your greatest hope to fly the Atlantic?" |
48478 | Then, drying her eyes, she added,"And how much do I owe you, Doctor?" |
48478 | There ca n''t be any rush about your finding your boarding- house, is there?" |
48478 | They''re hard to get, then?" |
48478 | They''re run something like Country Clubs, are n''t they? |
48478 | Was it possible that the baby was dead-- or dying? |
48478 | Was that the reason he was staying away from her? |
48478 | Was their rescuer bad, after all? |
48478 | Well, I do n''t happen to believe that.... What I do know, is you did n''t stop at the border for the regular search, did you?" |
48478 | Were these nuns, living their quiet lives, used to airplanes, or would they resent the noise, breaking in upon their meditations and work? |
48478 | What could have brought them up here to Plattsburg? |
48478 | What did you say?" |
48478 | What do you suppose made him do that?" |
48478 | What makes you think so? |
48478 | What were they both trying to hide? |
48478 | What''s on?" |
48478 | What''s the use of wasting time? |
48478 | Where can she be now?" |
48478 | Where have you been these last two days?" |
48478 | Where is he, Linda?" |
48478 | Who''d want more?" |
48478 | Why not take my money and go on-- at a loss-- for a while?" |
48478 | Why not?" |
48478 | Why, Ted Mackay----""Have you heard from him lately, Linda?" |
48478 | Why? |
48478 | Why?" |
48478 | Why?" |
48478 | Will you go to the dance with me tonight?" |
48478 | Will you have my dinner sent up to my room?" |
48478 | Wo n''t you have mercy on me-- let bygones be bygones, if I give you my word of honor I''ve reformed?" |
48478 | Would she be risking her own life, to watch the child die in her mother''s arms?... |
48478 | Would you ever think any trimming could be so clever? |
48478 | Would you like to do it?" |
48478 | You did n''t go with any of the boys?" |
48478 | You do n''t need the cabin, do you?" |
48478 | You expect to go home for the holidays too, do n''t you? |
48478 | You know Miss Mason, perhaps?" |
48478 | You know about them?" |
48478 | You understand?" |
48478 | You wo n''t be hurt?" |
48478 | You''d trust to my judgment?" |
48478 | You''ll promise that?" |
48478 | You''re not really counting on that ocean trip?" |
48478 | but she could not think of the French word for"impostor,"and besides, what was the use of telling all this to these simple- hearted sisters? |
48478 | demanded Ralph] was changed to"Locked up? |
45174 | A Hun, eh? |
45174 | Ah-- incidentally-- saving my life, and making the capture of this gang possible? |
45174 | All set? |
45174 | All set? |
45174 | An airplane-- one that can land either on water or on land? |
45174 | And get another piece bit out of me arm? |
45174 | And how, may I ask, do you figure that? |
45174 | And not another peep out of you-- understand? |
45174 | And the result in both cases is a crash? |
45174 | And then? |
45174 | And what has been done toward catching the thieves-- or thief? |
45174 | And who would there be out in the wilds to admire that smart frock you''re wearing, for instance? |
45174 | And why should Mr. Harry Perkins be so entrusted? |
45174 | And why, in your opinion, are we making a mistake in putting you and Miss Dixon out of the running? |
45174 | And you must taxi either before the wind, or into the wind as we are now, in seas like these? |
45174 | And you''ve been back since the robbery, I think you said? |
45174 | Another Packard, was it? |
45174 | Any idea where we are? |
45174 | Any new clues lately? |
45174 | Are n''t you the cheeky kid, using that thing in front of me? |
45174 | Asleep? |
45174 | Behave, will yer? 45174 But I do need a leather coat, do n''t I?" |
45174 | But here-- see these footprints? 45174 But if this is an airplane, why keep bouncing along on the water? |
45174 | But was he tall or short? |
45174 | But was n''t it awful in this wind? |
45174 | But what could I do? 45174 But what does that mean?" |
45174 | But where? |
45174 | But why make the biggest mistake-- of murdering us? |
45174 | But why not? 45174 But, Bill-- did you ever see a lame man-- whose left leg was shorter than his right?" |
45174 | But-- why do you wear that curly mustache? |
45174 | D''you mind saying why you were foolish enough to drop in on Perkins and put us up a tree this way? |
45174 | D''you want us to wait here? |
45174 | Did he say anything else? |
45174 | Did n''t you tell me the cockpits of your N-9 were open-- that they did n''t have windshields? |
45174 | Did the gang get away with much? |
45174 | Did the girl and the other man wear gloves? |
45174 | Did you investigate? |
45174 | Did you notice if he limped? |
45174 | Did you see anyone besides the girl with the red hair? |
45174 | Did you talk to her? |
45174 | Do n''t tell me the knife was poisoned? |
45174 | Do you know anything about motors? |
45174 | Do you mean that? |
45174 | Do you play the violin, sir? |
45174 | Do you think I''ll ever learn? |
45174 | Do you think it an improvement over nature? |
45174 | Do you think she will run fifty miles? |
45174 | Do you think they''ll put up much of a fight? |
45174 | Do you think you can take time enough from your life work? |
45174 | Does that bother you? |
45174 | Earrings? |
45174 | Feelin''kind of woozy? |
45174 | Forgot what I said about checking a skid just now, did n''t you? |
45174 | Getting interested, eh? |
45174 | Got a crush on the girl? |
45174 | Got a gun? |
45174 | Got my gun? |
45174 | Has she gone nuts? |
45174 | Have I said they did n''t? 45174 Have you washed it yet?" |
45174 | Have you-- ever? |
45174 | He is in a position to do the bank considerable harm-- By the way, Dorothy, are you as efficient at manicuring as you are at making up your mouth? |
45174 | Hi, yourself,--what d''you want? |
45174 | How about it, Bolton? |
45174 | How about the rest of the gang? |
45174 | How about unlocking these handcuffs, Doctor? |
45174 | How are we goin''to make our getaway tonight with them two lads down and out upstairs? |
45174 | How come? |
45174 | How did you happen in here tonight? |
45174 | How do yer get that way? |
45174 | How far are we from the house? |
45174 | How is our invalid, nurse? |
45174 | How long do you suppose that will be? |
45174 | How long will it take to teach me to fly, Bill? |
45174 | How so? |
45174 | How''d you guess it? |
45174 | How''s it going? |
45174 | How''s that? |
45174 | How''s that? |
45174 | I s''pose you thought you''d save_ his_ skin, at least? |
45174 | I think so-- but how does one know when to do it? |
45174 | I wonder how birds learn to fly? |
45174 | I wonder how he got word to the house so quickly? |
45174 | I wonder if they have n''t found we''re not in the wine cellar-- if they''ve charged Mike Conway with our escape? |
45174 | I wonder what her mother would say to that? 45174 I''d rather not, if you do n''t mind?" |
45174 | If this is n''t a rumrunner, why do you carry that machine gun and the rifles and revolvers in the armsrack? |
45174 | In other words, she did n''t seem especially glad to see you? |
45174 | In other words, you think we have a fifty- fifty chance with the police? |
45174 | In what way? |
45174 | Interesting-- but why are we heading this way? |
45174 | Is he hurt? |
45174 | Is n''t my car good enough for you? |
45174 | Is n''t that called banking? |
45174 | Is that a serious trouble? |
45174 | Is that all? |
45174 | Is that so? |
45174 | Is_ that_ all? |
45174 | Jealous, Sadie? |
45174 | Johnny, have you the key? |
45174 | Just like an automobile skids? |
45174 | Keep still? |
45174 | Kind of medium- like--"Dark hair or light? |
45174 | Know this hold? |
45174 | Let him bump off the pair over there-- then take him for a ride? |
45174 | Let''s go to the movies this evening? |
45174 | Looks like my handwriting,sighed Mr. Dixon when he had finished,"but of course I did n''t write it!--What happened after that?" |
45174 | Miss Dixon, is n''t it? |
45174 | More cheek? |
45174 | More unpleasantness for you, Daddy? |
45174 | Much better, is n''t it? |
45174 | My face itches terribly from all that dust and I--"Well, what do yer think I am? 45174 No worse than learning to fly, is it?" |
45174 | Nonsense? |
45174 | Now, Lizzie, what happened next? |
45174 | Now, Thompson, do you think you can tell us exactly what happened, before Doctor Brown drives you home? |
45174 | Of course she had red hair and wore yellow beach pajamas? |
45174 | Oh, really? 45174 Oh, you do know him?" |
45174 | Oh-- you''re steering with your feet? |
45174 | Perhaps he came down a side road? |
45174 | Perhaps not-- but what''s the difference? |
45174 | Rather like locking up the barn after the sheep vamoosed, is n''t it? |
45174 | Really? 45174 Rumrunner? |
45174 | Simply because we saw the lame man take the Ridgefield road? |
45174 | So you think she should keep on with her flight training? |
45174 | Sorry we had to''bag''you, as it were-- hope you suffered no great inconvenience? |
45174 | Staten Island Sadie? |
45174 | Steinburg Hammerfeld-- isn''t that a hot one? |
45174 | Sure-- what did yer think I was-- a gigolo? |
45174 | Tastes good, eh? |
45174 | Tell me what happened in the woods after I got scragged and Mike carted me up here? |
45174 | Tell me-- is Bill Bolton very badly hurt? |
45174 | Then how in thunder did they cop the license plates without your seeing them? |
45174 | Then what makes you think you''ll corner the gang at the house now? |
45174 | Then what_ are_ we going to do? |
45174 | Then why do you tie the leg- strap around your waist? |
45174 | Then you landed into the wind when you came down for me? |
45174 | There was only one man in the car-- the chauffeur? |
45174 | They are? |
45174 | They do? |
45174 | They ought to help just a little, do n''t you think? |
45174 | Think you can turn this with your teeth, Mr. Scotland Yard? |
45174 | Those who live by the sword-- but you are familiar with the quotation, I''m sure? |
45174 | Tired? |
45174 | Up at New Canaan? |
45174 | Want the job yourself? |
45174 | Want to tell me? 45174 Was it_ my_ fault that that fellow over there landed his plane on the lake? |
45174 | Was n''t that to be expected after what the cop told us in the bank? |
45174 | Well, she must be!--Are you trying to kid me? |
45174 | Well, what is it then? |
45174 | Well, why do n''t you let me help you? 45174 Well--"Dorothy eyed him uncompromisingly--"why are you afraid of me, then?" |
45174 | Were you able to get Dad? |
45174 | What are you going to do? |
45174 | What can he have up his sleeve? |
45174 | What car was that? |
45174 | What did the man look like, Lizzie? |
45174 | What did you do? |
45174 | What did you tell him? |
45174 | What do you mean? 45174 What do you suppose that lame man was doing on Marvin Ridge?" |
45174 | What ever_ is_ the matter with you? |
45174 | What for? |
45174 | What happened when you brought back the bicarb, Lizzie? |
45174 | What if they have sentries posted? |
45174 | What is it, Bill? |
45174 | What is it? |
45174 | What news? |
45174 | What of it? 45174 What on earth is that?" |
45174 | What time was that? |
45174 | What yer want it for? 45174 What''s a shame?" |
45174 | What''s happened? |
45174 | What''s the big idea? |
45174 | What''s the idea? |
45174 | What''s the matter with you, Johnny? 45174 What''s the matter with you, Mike?" |
45174 | What''s the matter? |
45174 | What''s the use of all this? |
45174 | What''s up? |
45174 | What_ is_ the big idea? |
45174 | Where are we going? 45174 Where are your eyes, girl?" |
45174 | Where do they keep the wheelbarrer in this godforsakin''dump? |
45174 | Where do you get your appalling strength? |
45174 | Who are you, anyway? |
45174 | Who taught you jiu jitsu? |
45174 | Who then, may I ask? |
45174 | Who''s Bill? 45174 Who''s Mike?" |
45174 | Who''s Sadie? 45174 Who''s going to stand guard while the plane goes for the police?" |
45174 | Why did n''t you nab him while you had the chance? 45174 Why do you do it?" |
45174 | Why do you do that? 45174 Why do you talk such nonsense?" |
45174 | Why do you think the gang are there now? |
45174 | Why is it,she inquired presently,"that the plane rides so much smoother when you''re guiding her?" |
45174 | Why not? |
45174 | Why should I? |
45174 | Why use a lipstick then? |
45174 | Why, what do you mean? |
45174 | Why? 45174 Why?" |
45174 | Will you really let me, Dad? |
45174 | Wo n''t it be cold? |
45174 | Yes, that''s the number-- but-- well... did you notice it further? |
45174 | Yes-- but what of it? |
45174 | You brought Thompson to and cut his bonds-- then what? |
45174 | You do? |
45174 | You heard what our friend said about_ his_ friend-- who understands all about engines? 45174 You keep me tied up, do n''t you? |
45174 | You mean you phoned the beach club about me? |
45174 | You really do n''t mind, Daddy? |
45174 | You really want to learn? |
45174 | You want to work up the case yourself? |
45174 | You wanta breeze-- get outa here, do n''t yer? |
45174 | You''re sure? |
45174 | Young, was she? |
45174 | _ Afraid?_ You little whippet! |
45174 | _ Cigarettes?_"Yes. 45174 _ What?_"shrieked Dorothy. |
45174 | --What next?" |
45174 | A lady''s maid?" |
45174 | After all, was not this the real Bill Bolton the famous ace and midshipman she had read about? |
45174 | All right?" |
45174 | And it''s stayed that way ever since, has n''t it? |
45174 | And what then?" |
45174 | Anybody caught? |
45174 | Anybody hurt? |
45174 | Anyone else know anything about this robbery?" |
45174 | But how about the time lock?" |
45174 | But if we are leaving all the fun to the police, why did you bring the guns?" |
45174 | But that does n''t solve the mystery, does it?" |
45174 | But the point is-- were they taken this afternoon while Daddy had the car parked behind the bank-- or later this evening after he drove home? |
45174 | But the shot and the scream immediately afterward? |
45174 | But was she? |
45174 | But what am I to learn in? |
45174 | But what are we going to do for a plane?" |
45174 | But what do you make of these tracks here? |
45174 | But what has_ that_ got to do with Dorothy''s flying?" |
45174 | But what right had he to talk like that? |
45174 | Ca n''t I go up now?" |
45174 | Conway?" |
45174 | Could it be that Bill was n''t sure of his quarry? |
45174 | Could n''t you break away then?" |
45174 | Did I make you cry?" |
45174 | Dixon?" |
45174 | Dixon?" |
45174 | Dixon?" |
45174 | Do I get a lesson tomorrow?" |
45174 | Do n''t imagine those police are efficient, do you? |
45174 | Do n''t you realize that these two know too much about us to permit them to live?" |
45174 | Do n''t you think it''s mean of them to make such a mystery of whatever they''re talking about, Mr. Bolton? |
45174 | Do n''t you think you''d better come down to the bank and tell the story of your sleuthing to the Bankers''Association detectives? |
45174 | Do you hear me? |
45174 | Do you think Daddy will let me?" |
45174 | Do you wish to vote on it again?" |
45174 | Doc?" |
45174 | Does that suit your highness?" |
45174 | Dorothy''s tone was stern,"What have they done with Bill?" |
45174 | Excitement kind of stirs you up eh?" |
45174 | From this door to the car?" |
45174 | Get the idea?" |
45174 | Give me a boost, will you?" |
45174 | Got all that?" |
45174 | Got plenty of gas?" |
45174 | Got that dope down pat?" |
45174 | Got that?" |
45174 | Had that been the sound of his automatic-- or another''s? |
45174 | He guffawed--"I guess you know that trick-- the bulls have made it pretty popular?" |
45174 | He hesitated a moment, then--"I know it''s none of my affair, but do n''t you think it''s rather risky to go for a sail just now?" |
45174 | He passed over a letter--""Have you still got it?" |
45174 | He said he''d let him look over the carburetor when he got home, did n''t he? |
45174 | He''ll come round after while-- but when?" |
45174 | How about getting a plane of your own to fool with from now on?" |
45174 | How about going in now and telling your father what we''ve learned?" |
45174 | How about it? |
45174 | How about it?" |
45174 | How about the time, Dad?" |
45174 | How about the tire tracks?" |
45174 | How are you-- stiff?" |
45174 | How are your legs?" |
45174 | How should I know? |
45174 | How''s the car running?" |
45174 | How_ did_ you keep from slewing broadside and going under?" |
45174 | I got the impression that you and the young lady who is at present drinking coffee might have had-- a difference of opinion, shall we say?" |
45174 | I knew we had some in the medicine chest upstairs, so--""So you went back to the house and got it?" |
45174 | If you''ll help me?" |
45174 | Just holes in the mud with a flat dab right ahead?" |
45174 | Just what has been taken?" |
45174 | Know how to use it?" |
45174 | May Doctor Watson inquire on what Miss Sherlock Holmes bases her astounding deduction?" |
45174 | Not such a bad hunch to take a look out here, was it?" |
45174 | Now then, you gave the other one the garage key, I s''pose?" |
45174 | Now, I''m going to pull my feet from under yours-- ready?" |
45174 | Now, concerning our two young friends who were so unwise as to join us tonight-- what is your pleasure?" |
45174 | Of course, if Miss Martinelli has her way-- but why anticipate the unpleasant?" |
45174 | Oh, Bill, you''re generally so fertile with ideas--_can''t_ you think of any thing?" |
45174 | Recognize the scenery?" |
45174 | Say, Bill, that was only a bluff, was n''t it?" |
45174 | See how the nose of the plane rises and falls in response? |
45174 | Shall we go up in the_ Loening_ again?" |
45174 | Sling me a hunk o''bread, will yer? |
45174 | Sounds rather silly at a time like this, do n''t you think so?" |
45174 | Still sleuthing, I take it?" |
45174 | Sure you have n''t lost him?" |
45174 | Tell me-- why are_ you_ piloting a rumrunner?" |
45174 | That is your reason for not voting with the rest of us?" |
45174 | That road runs down to Noroton, does n''t it? |
45174 | That''s what you were going to say, is n''t it?" |
45174 | The Hamberfields, of Canoe Hill?" |
45174 | The plane must be banked with ailerons before the rudder will have any turning effect.--Get me?" |
45174 | Then I landed--""Into the wind or with it?" |
45174 | Then musingly,"So you''re a wrestler, eh?" |
45174 | Then you''ll come tonight?" |
45174 | There-- is that better?" |
45174 | Understand?" |
45174 | Want to come along?" |
45174 | Want to look it over?" |
45174 | Was Bill one of them? |
45174 | Was the lame man sitting beside her?" |
45174 | We are about to celebrate this festive occasion by a housewarming, in the form of a scrap dinner at the hero''s home-- what say you?" |
45174 | What are yer givin''us?" |
45174 | What did it matter if the gang made their escape? |
45174 | What do ye think this is, anyway-- a joy ride?" |
45174 | What do you expect me to do-- release the safety catch and pull the trigger to see if it works?" |
45174 | What do you mean?" |
45174 | What do you think his name really is?" |
45174 | What do you want to know?" |
45174 | What happened then?" |
45174 | What of it? |
45174 | What was the use of that? |
45174 | What would the gang say if she bested him, a professional wrestler, and make her getaway? |
45174 | What''s actually happened? |
45174 | What''s the trouble?" |
45174 | What''s to become of Mr. Conway, in the meantime? |
45174 | When I do n''t understand, I''ll ask-- if it''s all the same to you?" |
45174 | Where are your eyes, Bill? |
45174 | Where do we go from here?" |
45174 | Where would I be if it were n''t for him? |
45174 | Where''s that lamp? |
45174 | Whose gun_ was_ that?" |
45174 | Why am I sure of it? |
45174 | Why did he continue to go on with his pretended inspection of the engine? |
45174 | Why did n''t Bill capture the man at once so they could haul him off to the police station? |
45174 | Why do you stand for it?" |
45174 | Why is it better for her to start now, rather than later?" |
45174 | Why? |
45174 | Why? |
45174 | Why?" |
45174 | Wo n''t that raise the tail of the plane and depress the nose?" |
45174 | Wo n''t you tell me?" |
45174 | Would the throbbing engine continue to function under the unaccustomed strain? |
45174 | Would they make it? |
45174 | Would they mire in the soft ground at the lake''s edge she wondered, and cause the big bus to nose over and crash? |
45174 | Y''do n''t happen ter want a couple of ice cubes and a stick in it too?" |
45174 | Yer boy friend?" |
45174 | You do n''t think I''ve any intention of trying to capture them?" |
45174 | You have n''t had your second cup of coffee, have you?" |
45174 | You know what happened to Tony--""Yes, but the shot right afterward? |
45174 | You''re starting out for a sail in that sloop that''s moored over there, I take it?" |
45174 | You''ve got me now, have n''t yer? |
45174 | Your steady?" |
45174 | _ Chapter IV_ THE FIRST HOP"How about giving me my first flying lesson now?" |
45174 | _ Chapter XI_ FOLLOW THE LEADER"Need any help?" |
45174 | _ Why_ had n''t she taken more precise directions before tramping over here? |
45174 | he exclaimed,"what are you two doing here?" |
45174 | student-- Listen to your master''s-- I mean,--your instructor''s voice, will you?" |
45457 | ''Gator Road''? |
45457 | A fly? |
45457 | A flying bug? |
45457 | A girl? |
45457 | A job? 45457 A job? |
45457 | A new car? |
45457 | A what? |
45457 | Am I dreaming? 45457 Am I to meet her?" |
45457 | And Dot-- may I speak to Miss Carlton? |
45457 | And Louise, why do n''t you pour them some of this iced- coffee? 45457 And forced her to go with him?" |
45457 | And get on a steamer? |
45457 | And how do you happen to be here? |
45457 | And how''s the most famous girl- pilot in the world? |
45457 | And lose all that ransom money? 45457 And the man they called the''Doc''?" |
45457 | And we wait for them there? |
45457 | And what is your line, outside of kidnapping? |
45457 | And where are you going? |
45457 | And where does Susie come into all this? |
45457 | And where will you go with your Flying Bug, Miss Carlton? |
45457 | And will you please excuse me-- as I see Dot going to the dressing- room? |
45457 | And would n''t you like to try her out? 45457 Any news?" |
45457 | Are n''t you doing a thing to find them, Captain? |
45457 | Are n''t your family worried about you, Miss Carlton? |
45457 | Are you O.K., darling? |
45457 | Are you alone? |
45457 | Are you engaged to Ralph Clavering-- and is that why you''re turning other men away? |
45457 | Are you sure that it can go fast enough to suit you, Linda? |
45457 | Aunt Emily? 45457 Best in the country,"boasted Jackson...."Miss Carlton,"he added,"would you stay at our home while you are in the city?" |
45457 | But does n''t it make you feel dreadful-- at night, sometimes, or when you''re alone-- to think of leading such a wicked life? |
45457 | But how can we ever hope to build a fire in this rain? 45457 But how could you possibly know?" |
45457 | But how did you get away? |
45457 | But how do we manage it? 45457 But how shall I tell Mrs. Carter? |
45457 | But if they had, would n''t we have heard? 45457 But it flies?" |
45457 | But wait, have you had your supper? |
45457 | But what could you possibly do? |
45457 | But what good''s money, if you''re a cripple? |
45457 | But what has that to do with me? |
45457 | But what shall we do about this visitor? |
45457 | But what were they doing? 45457 But what''s the grand rush?" |
45457 | But when you discovered that he was n''t straight, why did n''t you leave him? |
45457 | But where have you been? |
45457 | But why did n''t you tell Hal and me that, when we found you in the swamp? |
45457 | But you agree that I could n''t call it my''Clothes- dryer,''or my''Wind- mill,''do n''t you, Aunt Emily? 45457 But,"she continued as they walked around the autogiro,"is n''t there really any danger of crashing?" |
45457 | By airplane? |
45457 | By the way, Miss Carlton,put in the pilot,"did you think to bring any food for lunch? |
45457 | Can I drive in to the hotel to see you, Ann? |
45457 | Can we be of any help to you, Miss? |
45457 | Can you fly that Bug, Susie? |
45457 | Can you shoot? |
45457 | Can you take us aboard? |
45457 | Could n''t you get rid of her, Auntie? |
45457 | Could n''t you take some other girl? |
45457 | Could we eat, Sergeant? |
45457 | Did n''t I tell you to? |
45457 | Did n''t you see Beefy take that big can to the boat with him? 45457 Did you ever see two such sights as we are?" |
45457 | Did you realize that at the time? |
45457 | Did you see them-- the police, I mean? |
45457 | Do I look like another girl? |
45457 | Do n''t you suppose we can go today? |
45457 | Do n''t you want a detective to go with you? |
45457 | Do n''t you want to try it out? |
45457 | Do n''t you, Captain? |
45457 | Do you honestly think she''ll reform? |
45457 | Do you mean that you wanted to kill me? |
45457 | Do you really know me? |
45457 | Do you suppose they''re both sick-- or injured? |
45457 | Do you think we can make it? |
45457 | Do you''spose some canoe picked her up-- maybe those same boys that rescued you? |
45457 | Does Susie like all this? |
45457 | Does it hurt very much, Susie? |
45457 | Flying? |
45457 | Go where? |
45457 | Good news, Linda? |
45457 | Got a good knife, Linda? |
45457 | Got any guns on you? |
45457 | Got the lines out about her yet? |
45457 | Had n''t we better be pushing on, if we expect to get out of the swamp before dark? |
45457 | Had n''t we better eat? |
45457 | Have n''t you learned from driving a car that it does n''t pay? 45457 Have n''t you read about yourselves? |
45457 | Have they a good police department? |
45457 | Have you had your dinner, Sir? |
45457 | Her disappearance will make it a lot harder to trace that other thief.... Do you really expect to do anything about hunting him, Linda? |
45457 | How about taking me up for a little fly? |
45457 | How can we ever thank you enough, Captain Smallweed? |
45457 | How did it get there? |
45457 | How did you know where to find us? |
45457 | How do I know how Linda got away? 45457 How do I know that that plane wo n''t burst into flames any minute?" |
45457 | How do you expect to get across the state? |
45457 | How do you get that way? |
45457 | How do you know that you can fly any plane I happen to get, Miss Carlton? |
45457 | How long do you think it will take you to get to Cuba? |
45457 | How long has it been since you ate? |
45457 | How long will it take us to get to Jacksonville? |
45457 | How soon do you think you can get off, Linda? |
45457 | How soon will we get to the coast? |
45457 | How would you know where to go-- without even a suggestion from Susie? |
45457 | How? |
45457 | How? |
45457 | If it did n''t have a leak----"But did n''t you say that it was broken? |
45457 | If they had n''t taken it? |
45457 | In his canoe? |
45457 | In trouble, girls? |
45457 | Is her Bug still there? |
45457 | Is it really, truly you, Linda darling? |
45457 | Is my bag still in the autogiro? |
45457 | Is that all you had? |
45457 | Is there anything I can do? |
45457 | Is this surely the right island? 45457 It''s huge, is n''t it?" |
45457 | Just what are your plans, Linda? |
45457 | Kit? |
45457 | Like her, Susie? |
45457 | Linda,said Susie, interrupting these thoughts,"will you go to my tent and get me a magazine I have there? |
45457 | Linda,she said softly,"see that young man over there at that table back of you-- to the right-- with an older woman? |
45457 | May I ask you a personal question, Linda? |
45457 | May I look the plane over before we start? |
45457 | May we throw our stuff on board first? |
45457 | Miss Carlton? |
45457 | Miss Carlton? |
45457 | Money? 45457 Must you call it that, Linda?" |
45457 | No, we''ll go straight west.... Or is that the west? 45457 Not in that boat?" |
45457 | Now, can you climb? |
45457 | Oh, yeah? |
45457 | Oh, you did, did you? |
45457 | Or go straight on to the ocean? |
45457 | Pretty slick, are n''t they? 45457 Rain or shine? |
45457 | Ready now? |
45457 | Ready to start now? |
45457 | Remember all the dark futures I used to wish for Bess Hulbert? |
45457 | Say, does this uncover a lot of money? 45457 Shall we eat?" |
45457 | Shall we get out? |
45457 | Shall we go back to our island-- if we can find it? |
45457 | Shall we leave Jacksonville? |
45457 | Smashed your plane? |
45457 | So far away-- in an airplane? |
45457 | So stop that taxi for us, will you please, Captain?... 45457 Soldiers''Camp Island?" |
45457 | Suppose they get caught? |
45457 | Susie hurt? |
45457 | Tell me how you got into a gang like this? |
45457 | That island does n''t look very far away, does it? |
45457 | The girl who flew to Paris alone? |
45457 | The what? |
45457 | Then where is it? |
45457 | Then why did you treat him so cruelly? 45457 Then your Ladybug is damaged?" |
45457 | There are n''t any roads in the swamp, are there? |
45457 | Think I better try to call him back? |
45457 | This is a P C A--2, is n''t it? |
45457 | Tired? |
45457 | To match my eyes? |
45457 | To show us the way? |
45457 | Unless,he added, turning to Susie,"you would want to take the body back to your home?" |
45457 | Want some grub first, Jake? |
45457 | Want to come along home with me, and meet the wife? 45457 Was it Jackson Carter who rescued you before, Linda?" |
45457 | We had a wreck.... Will you take me with you? |
45457 | We have it.... Now, suppose instead of my asking you questions, you tell us the whole story, Miss----? |
45457 | We have to be able to manage most anything.... Can you send a car out for me to the Carters''home, early in the morning? |
45457 | We might even build a boat----"Out of underbrush? |
45457 | We''ll be delighted to accept, wo n''t we, Linda? |
45457 | We''re your best friends, are n''t we, Linda? 45457 Well, what''s it all about, Miss Carlton?" |
45457 | Well, would it, Captain Smallweed? |
45457 | What boat? |
45457 | What do you girls mean by going out on a rough sea like this, in a shell like you had? |
45457 | What do you mean? |
45457 | What do you mean? |
45457 | What do you think of that, Linda? |
45457 | What do you- all call this? |
45457 | What does he care-- so long as he ai n''t the one that''s hurt? |
45457 | What does it mean? |
45457 | What shall we do? |
45457 | What would be the nearest large city to this southern end of the swamp? |
45457 | What would you like to do? |
45457 | What''s in that flask? |
45457 | What''s new? |
45457 | What''s the connection between chicken soup and sore throats? |
45457 | What''s the matter, Dot? |
45457 | What? 45457 What? |
45457 | When can I see you, Ann? 45457 When do you expect them back?" |
45457 | When will you be home, dear? |
45457 | Where are the other two men? |
45457 | Where are you hurt? |
45457 | Where could she go? |
45457 | Where do you girls want to go now? |
45457 | Where in the world have you been? |
45457 | Where is it? |
45457 | Where is she now? |
45457 | Where is your mother? |
45457 | Where would Jim see our old boat? |
45457 | Where''s Linda? |
45457 | Where''s Slats? |
45457 | Where''s Susie? |
45457 | Where''s your other man? |
45457 | Where? |
45457 | Where? |
45457 | Where? |
45457 | Which bank? |
45457 | Who can it be? |
45457 | Who is she, Auntie? |
45457 | Who? 45457 Why could n''t we make chicken soup, out of the bones and sea- water? |
45457 | Why do n''t they fly towards the coast-- towards Georgia? |
45457 | Why does n''t he come after us? |
45457 | Why not pick a job in Canada? |
45457 | Why not? |
45457 | Why not? |
45457 | Why the sigh, dear? |
45457 | Why? 45457 Why?" |
45457 | Why? |
45457 | Why? |
45457 | Will you have her filled with gas and oil, while I sign the contract? 45457 Will you please take my bag to your house, and leave the address with me?" |
45457 | Will you take the police along? |
45457 | With the police? 45457 Working?" |
45457 | Would I have to promise to do this all summer, if I took it on? |
45457 | Would n''t it be nice to stop and make some coffee? |
45457 | Would n''t you like to go off in my autogiro today? |
45457 | Would n''t you rather have your ankle fixed right, and not run the chance of being a cripple for life? |
45457 | Would you girls consider bringing your families out to our home, to spend the weekend with us? |
45457 | Would you have gone with me? |
45457 | Yes-- and weddings are so solemn-- so sort of sad, are n''t they, Auntie? 45457 Yes?" |
45457 | You are sure you can pilot her, Miss? |
45457 | You do n''t mean to say that you have been kidnapped? |
45457 | You do n''t mean to say you''ll take time to fly to Philadelphia, with all your engagements? |
45457 | You expect to give your whole time to flying? |
45457 | You foot the bill? |
45457 | You found it easy to fly, Miss Carlton? |
45457 | You girls gangsters? |
45457 | You know the way? |
45457 | You know, then, that one plane flying over a field can spray as many plants in a day as a hundred of the ordinary spraying machines? |
45457 | You mean they do n''t trust you? |
45457 | You mean you are actually willing to go back into that swamp? |
45457 | You mean you will pilot the plane yourself? 45457 You really are the girl who flew across the ocean alone, and won that big prize?" |
45457 | You really believe you can fix it in one day? |
45457 | You really expect to buy one today, Linda? |
45457 | You really expect to catch those two on that island? |
45457 | You stole the autogiro? |
45457 | You want to try it again in canoes? |
45457 | You wo n''t go to Green Falls-- with all the rest of the crowd? |
45457 | You''ll burn your old stuff, wo n''t you? |
45457 | You''re Miss Carlton, are n''t you? |
45457 | You''re not going to pull some new stunt on us, are you, Linda? 45457 You''re not too tired, are you, Linda?" |
45457 | You''re not wishing you were back again? |
45457 | Your aunt? |
45457 | Your business? |
45457 | Ai n''t he a good ad for his own cookin''?" |
45457 | Ai n''t that right?" |
45457 | Am I to have this particular one? |
45457 | And ai n''t your Bug the easiest thing to spot in the air?" |
45457 | And kept it all this time?" |
45457 | And what kind of plane do you intend to buy next, since you sold your Bellanca in Paris?" |
45457 | And will you ask one of the servants to waken me at seven o''clock?" |
45457 | And would the boat stop at their signal of distress? |
45457 | And-- would your friends care to go up with you?" |
45457 | Any news?" |
45457 | Anything breakable in it?" |
45457 | Are n''t we lucky to have that food?" |
45457 | Are n''t you the only girl who ever flew the Atlantic alone? |
45457 | Are you there?" |
45457 | Beneath the surface, she could see thick vegetation; would this, she wondered, support her weight if she were to attempt to walk in it? |
45457 | But do you mean you were going to shoot Linda?" |
45457 | But wait-- was she? |
45457 | But we have to stop in Jacksonville first.... Aunt Emily, could n''t you and Mrs. Crowley come to Jacksonville? |
45457 | But why do you want to go to Philadelphia, Linda?" |
45457 | By plane?" |
45457 | By the way, I''m rooming with you?" |
45457 | Can we go tomorrow morning? |
45457 | Can we go with him there?" |
45457 | Capturing a hundred thousand dollars by a clever trick----""Is there really that much?" |
45457 | Carlton?" |
45457 | Carlton?" |
45457 | Carter?" |
45457 | Clothing?" |
45457 | Could Dot and Linda have gone off in that?" |
45457 | Could I run after her?" |
45457 | Could it be the money? |
45457 | Could we have a piece of bread, or anything to eat?" |
45457 | Dared she suggest that the other girl deceive her husband-- or would she only be punished for such an idea? |
45457 | Did n''t he realize that she would never dare fly this autogiro where anyone could see her? |
45457 | Did n''t we have fun?" |
45457 | Did they mean to leave her on the island, or send her to South America? |
45457 | Did you, Lou?" |
45457 | Do we have to pass Black Jack Island to get out of the swamp?" |
45457 | Do you know them, or are they people I have met at Palm Beach sometime, one of those winters when we went to Florida?" |
45457 | Does n''t your Aunt Emily make you do that?" |
45457 | Fly the Pacific-- or the Arctic Ocean?" |
45457 | Flying to South America, or Alaska? |
45457 | Get me?" |
45457 | Give me a signal----""How?" |
45457 | Had her excitement over regaining her autogiro destroyed all her common sense? |
45457 | Had she lost control of the plane, and were they about to be dashed to pieces? |
45457 | Had the girls died of starvation, or was there foul play of some kind? |
45457 | Her blue eyes became pleading, and she asked, in an almost child- like tone,"You wo n''t tell on me, will you, Captain Magee?" |
45457 | Hiding from justice?" |
45457 | Hiding in the background, waiting to shoot them all down when they were off guard? |
45457 | How could he ever have doubted that she was of good family? |
45457 | How could she ever hope to be free from the stain of her last two years of living-- since her marriage to"Slats"? |
45457 | How could she have been so stupid? |
45457 | How could they ever tell these two men the terrible news? |
45457 | How''s everything?" |
45457 | I''m glad to get rid of that gang.... And, Linda-- how''bout if we be friends? |
45457 | If so, would n''t he perhaps be above the level of the others-- and might she not expect, if not sympathy, at least fair play from him? |
45457 | If these boys found it so dreadful, what must it have seemed like to Linda? |
45457 | If we rig up some kind of signal of distress----""What shall we use? |
45457 | Impatient at the delay, her husband demanded,"Got the idea how to run her?" |
45457 | Instead, she asked:"How soon do you go, Linda?" |
45457 | It''s dangerous-- you may be killed.... And, and, besides----""Besides, what?" |
45457 | Not hurt?" |
45457 | Nothing but ocean and sky.... Do you have your revolver handy, Dot?" |
45457 | Oh, are you all right? |
45457 | Or to die of thirst?" |
45457 | Or was he delirious, and thought he was talking to some other Linda? |
45457 | Pitcairn?" |
45457 | Remember the time you gave up a dance to fly one?" |
45457 | See the wind- mill on top?" |
45457 | Shall I send a wire?" |
45457 | Shall we fly over immediately, Sergeant Worth?" |
45457 | Shall we go there?" |
45457 | So if you would just get us a taxi, and send us to the best hotel in Havana----""In those rigs?" |
45457 | So ought n''t we to be privileged with the first ride?" |
45457 | Suppose the storm had washed the Ladybug away-- or even the whole island?" |
45457 | Ted, do you suppose they''re starved? |
45457 | That the police all over the country would be on the look- out for this very plane? |
45457 | The girls nodded, and Dot asked, with anxiety,"But who''s guiding the boat now, while Mr. Steve eats his supper?" |
45457 | Turning about, she saw Jackson behind her,"How do you do?" |
45457 | Was it possible that all this scare had risen to alarm the world for the simple reason that Linda Carlton had run out of gas? |
45457 | Was it possible that she was sick-- or only asleep? |
45457 | Was it possible that they had found the girls-- dead? |
45457 | Was it possible that this man was a physician? |
45457 | Was it possible that this man was an officer of the law, and the criminals were caught? |
45457 | Was n''t it only nerves after all? |
45457 | Was n''t your story in all the newspapers, tellin''all about this trip of your''n? |
45457 | Was the other occupant a woman? |
45457 | We ca n''t all four get into that canoe, so Susie and I had better stay here, had n''t we? |
45457 | We did n''t know it was going to spring a leak.... Would it take very long to run us to the coast, Mr.--Captain----?" |
45457 | Were Linda and Dot safe? |
45457 | Were the boys coming back so soon? |
45457 | What could you do with a girl like Linda? |
45457 | What does it feel like to starve to death? |
45457 | What have you girls got in that bag, that''s so important to deliver in a hurry?" |
45457 | What if she should drown now, in the midst of her own country-- after she had conquered the Atlantic Ocean successfully? |
45457 | What money?" |
45457 | What was the man going to do to her? |
45457 | What was the use of talking to a person like that? |
45457 | What would her niece be up to next? |
45457 | What?" |
45457 | When everything looked blackest----""You mean about being lost in the Okefenokee Swamp?" |
45457 | Where could she possibly be? |
45457 | Where did you see her?" |
45457 | Where is it located?" |
45457 | Where was he? |
45457 | Where was she going? |
45457 | Where was she? |
45457 | Where?" |
45457 | Why had she taken such a dislike to a young man as handsome as Jackson Carter? |
45457 | Why were n''t they there? |
45457 | Why, then, had n''t the girls come back? |
45457 | Why?" |
45457 | Will wonders never cease? |
45457 | Will you go with them, Worth?" |
45457 | Would that be enough to take her out of this"trembling land,"which was the meaning of the Indian word,"Okefenokee"? |
45457 | Would the rescue come in time? |
45457 | Would they torture her, perhaps, if her father refused to raise the ransom, and called the police to his aid? |
45457 | You could wire my aunt for me, could n''t you?" |
45457 | You have heard of that, no doubt?" |
45457 | You have matches in your pocket?" |
45457 | You have to put salt in it anyway, do n''t you?" |
45457 | You mean that?" |
45457 | You really have that money? |
45457 | You will come, wo n''t you, girls-- as soon as the whole party is together?" |
