The men who drove the teams were strangers to him. Scroggie, or Heir Scroggie, as he was now commonly called in the neighborhood, sat beside the driver of one of the wagons.,“Does he?” May Nell stared innocently into the darkening eyes. “I should think that would make you awfully agitated.”,"Good lads!" cried Cobin heartily, "Ma, hear that? They found ol' Junefly. Wasn't that smart of 'em, an' in all that rain, too."，"If the man had been guilty, he certainly would not offer the evidence of his guilt for sale.

It is a critical moment. Rodney, putting out his hand, tries to draw her behind him."Eh? What?" asks Lady Rodney, in a dazed fashion, yet coming back to life with amazing rapidity. She sits up. Then in an instant the situation explains itself to her; she collects herself, bestows one glance of passionate anger upon Mona, and then rises to welcome Mrs. Carson with her usual suave manner and bland smile, throwing into the former an air meant to convey the flattering idea that for the past week she has been living on the hope of seeing her soon again.

"You compel me to retaliate. Just look at yourself. Did you ever see such a regular pickle as you are?",“O Billy, think how many gophers Flash catches, and what gentlemen they are in the house,” Edith defended.

No siree, we won't say a word 'bout it.",Among the holy sisters, Julia distinguished one, the singular fervor of whose devotion, and the pensive air of whose countenance, softened by the languor of illness, attracted her curiosity, and excited a strong degree of pity. The nun, by a sort of sympathy, seemed particularly inclined towards Julia, which she discovered by innumerable acts of kindness, such as the heart can quickly understand and acknowledge, although description can never reach them.
