He filched the clergyman's book; he rubbed pitch on the cantor's seat, that he might stick fast there; he substituted gunpowder for poppy-meal in the kitchen, and filled the powder-flasks of the heydukes with poppy-meal instead of gunpowder, so that when they prepared to fire salvoes in honour of their master, on his return from chapel, not a gun would go off, while the poppy-cakes intended for the banquet all exploded on the hearth.
When he hears of the provocation Captain Gales will exonerate me. Cantor will have to admit that he deliberately insulted me." "If Cantor does admit it," muttered Danny Grin, doubtfully. "I haven't any faith in Cantor's honor." "Why, he'll have to do it," Dave contended, proudly. "Cantor is an officer in the United States Navy. Can you picture an officer as telling a deliberate falsehood?"
Then Dave drove in under Cantor's guard with his left hand, while with his right fist he struck the lieutenant a blow full on the face that sent him reeling backward. Clutching wildly, Cantor seized a chair, carrying it over with himself as he landed on the floor. In an instant Lieutenant Cantor was on his feet, brandishing the chair aloft.
Carmody, and have asked Coxswain Riley and Corporal Ross some questions. And so I have come to the decision " Here the captain paused for an instant. How Dave Darrin's heart thumped under his ribs. The next few words would convey either censure, criticism or exoneration! " -that Lieutenant Cantor's charges are not well sustained," continued, Captain Gales.
"The number of casualties, while unfortunate, is to be justified only by a decision as to whether it was expedient and right to engage the brigand, Cosetta." Lieutenant Cantor's only comment was an eloquent shrug of his shoulders.
"It was difficult to say," remarks Mikuli, "which of the two he loved most." Chopin not only, as has already been mentioned, had works of Bach on his writing-table at Valdemosa, corrected the Parisian edition for his own use, and prepared himself for his concerts by playing Bach, but also set his pupils to study the immortal cantor's suites, partitas, and preludes and fugues.
The big hills and the big waterways that 'ud leave Quebec rivers looking like a leak in a bone dry bar'l. My name's Aylin P. Cantor, Vancouver, B.C. Maybe you know the name?" Bull shook his head. "I'm not " "Oh, it don't matter," interjected Mr. Cantor. "You see, the West's one hell of a long way west. I just didn't get your " "Oh, my name's Sternford." Mr. Cantor's face beamed.
This meant that they would have no watch duty to stand, but would be employed through the day, while watch duty fell to the lot of others. While Dalzell was to go below, with Trent, aiding in the storage of shells in the magazine, Darrin was ordered to report to Lieutenant Cantor to supervise the oiling of mechanisms of the guns of Cantor's division, and, later, to perform other important duties.
It set a clammy horror in the breasts of the congregants, distracted their prayers, gave an unreal tone to the cantor's roulades, brought a tremor of insecurity into the very foundations of their universe.
But a little practice enables one to grasp the true principles of Cantor's doctrine, and to acquire new and better instincts as to the true and the false. The oddities then become no odder than the people at the antipodes, who used to be thought impossible because they would find it so inconvenient to stand on their heads.
