I realize that the dirty trick has been deliberately planned, the motive being perhaps to test me. You may believe me when I inform you that the one who placed that sulphur in the stove will have plenty of reason to regret having done it. I intend to flog him—or her—until he—or she—cannot stand. I shall now ask the one who is guilty of the offense to stand up.","Thank you, I will have another cup," Mr. Johnston answered, and turned his eyes back to Cobin.,Maurice stood up. "Well, as there's no need to keep watch here, maybe I best trail along home. Anse'll be gettin' tired waitin' fer me."，After a brief pause: "Coming for us, sir. We are rising her."，"Yep, Jim Scroggie."，Maurice glanced fearfully over his shoulder. "Hush, Bill. If your Ma happens to come back here it'll go bad with me."Mr Lawrence came from the ship's side, and said: "Pray continue your walk.

"What was Mr Lawrence's object in quitting his berth before the fixed time?","Alone," said Maurice, significantly.,"He's gone," Maurice answered his chum's look. "Took to his heels when the lightnin' struck that elm. The shock knocked us both down. He was gone when I come to.",Billy frowned. "Who?","Couple of shooters from Cleveland. One of 'em's a big, strong feller, an' he ain't as near done up as the other. I started 'em to shore along the rush-track. They'll be all hunky so long as they keep goin'. We best get 'em to the nearest house.".
