Your ship, Captain W., is commonly called a Temperance ship, is it not? I should think you knew that. P. Counsel. And being a temperance ship, you do not allow the men, at any time, any other liquor than water? Captain. No. P. Counsel. In temperance ships, I suppose it sometimes happens that the men contrive to buy liquor for themselves? Boo! P. Counsel.

And what had happened was that the vile, egregious, and infamous Boo, writing to break off one understanding and establish another, had placed them in the wrong envelopes. The outpourings of his bursting heart to Rosalie had been received by Miss Salmon; the information "re our friendship" had gone to Rosalie.

Major Denham found that the great failing of his friend, Boo Khaloom, was pomp and show; and feeling that he was on this occasion the representative of the bashaw, he was evidently unwilling that any sultan of Fezzan should exceed him in magnificence.

Molly had been a happy-go-lucky child, contented with her pets, her freedom, and little Boo to love; but now she was just beginning to see that they were not like other children, and to feel ashamed of it.

"Oh h h h! o o h! o o h! ah h h! 'twasn't me 'twasn't my fault its Pip and Judy oh h h h! hoo the pant'mime! boo-hoo! ah h h h you're killing me! hoo-boo!

It was a sort of cave down in between two big rocks in the woods; and it was almost as good as the cave in which he had lived in the jungle with his father and mother and Chet and Boo. "I wish my brother and sister were here now," thought Nero to himself, as he snuggled down on a bed of dry leaves between the rocks. The leaves were dry because one rock stretched over them, like a roof.

Ellen would have kept him in fine order and he would have liked her all the better for it. He despised Hester, that is the truth, just because she always gave in to him.
