"If I can only succeed in having him arrested he may confess all."，“So long as it isn’t you, Ladybird, it’s all right,” Billy consoled; “we can make more boats.”，“Gee, that’s tough!” commented Bob, happy that Mr. Whitney had enough confidence to tell him all these things. “But about the Mexicans; you don’t suspect anyone around the job is the trouble maker, do you?”，"I am not so sure of that," says Mona, with admirable tact and an exquisite smile, "but I shouldn't mind spending an hour with you."The King, who passed by a minute afterwards, wished to know to whom belonged all the cornfields he saw.
