Look, it's sheddin' blue grave-mist! Fer the love of Mike let's git out'a this!",Billy tried further inducements. "I'll give you my new red tie an' celluloid collar," he offered.,"Has Admiral Lawrence been here?",A long, harrowing moment passed. Then quickly and close together four shots rang out. Moll whined dolefully and Billy, peering through the rushes, gave a low whistle of surprise. "Didn't down a single bird," he muttered, "an' by gollies, they've sent 'em right across to us.","D'ye mean handsome, Lucy?" said Captain Acton. "For the dog is that."，"You dog! D'ye know I'm second mate?[Pg 275] Answer me, or I'll flay ye before sundown," said Pledge, turning scarlet.，Between the fishermen of Sandtown and the farmers of the community existed no very strong bond of sympathy or friendship. The former were a dissolute, shiftless lot, quite content, with draw-seine and pound-net, to eke out a miserable existence in the easiest manner possible. They were tolerated just as the poor and shiftless of any community are tolerated; their children were allowed to attend the school the same as the children of the tax-payers.，"I have no doubt. I have heard sterling reports of him; if he erred in his task it was because he was too lenient. Tell me, Mr. Keeler, is there not some history attached to him concerning a will, or property left by a man by the name of Scroggie? I'll admit I have no motive in so questioning save that of curiosity, but one wishes to know all one can learn about the man one is to follow.

A feeling that he wanted to visit his wild things in the upland shanty and explain to them his seeming neglect of them during his time of stress took possession of him. So, although he knew supper would be ready and waiting at home, he branched off where the path forked and hurried forward toward the oak ridge.

"Well, she didn't 'zactly promise she would, but—","I didn't see she 'ad, your honour.",He formed his resolution, and stepping to the door, knocked. He received no answer, whereupon he entered.,Wilson whistled softly. "You don't say!" he managed to articulate. "Why, Mary, it's a pipe!",He picked up his paddle and followed in the wake of the other boat.

"Thought we'd like to see you fer a minute er two, Harry," he added gravely, as he and his chum seated themselves.,There was no doubt in the world that Fatty regretted the part he had so unwittingly played in the day's disaster. He was sufficiently apologetic and low spirited to satisfy even the new teacher, who was content to let him off with a lecture.,"No, ours won't be them kind of colds," Billy explained. "They'll be the dry-cough, consumption kind, that either cure up quick er slow. All we gotta do is dig up an Injun turnip out o' the bush an' nibble it.
