Beatrice parted her lips ever so little, and a snake buzzed at Dorman's feet. He gave a yell of terror, and backed ingloriously.

The instrument buzzed a moment and the deskman looked up to say: "'Andy' and a nigger just fell over into Pedro Miguel locks. They're sending in his body. The nigger lit on his head and hurt his leg." His body! How uncanny it sounded!
I've seen him there with these buyers, and they carried themselves as if they were being let in on something; took possession of the box with a proprietory air, smiled and applauded and looked wise as if each and every one of them were friends of Kitty Ayrshire.

"She 'n' pa's had an awful row " "Sadie!" said the teacher, warningly, "what language!"
