If you like to buy the ferret, I dessay the chap'll wait and take a shillin' one time and a shillin' another, till it's all paid off." "Oh," cried Mercer, "if he'll sell it like that I'll have it; but you're sure it's not your old one?" "Sartain as sartain. That's a ferret as'll do anybody credit." "But will it hunt rabbits up into holes, and stop sucking their blood?"
"Well," Hutchinson was just a little grudging even at this comparatively lenient moment, "I believe the chap'll get on myself. He's got pluck and he's sharp. I never saw him make a poor mouth yet." "Neither did I," answered Ann. A door leading into Tembarom's hall bedroom opened on to Hutchinson's. They both heard some one inside the room knock at it.
"Oh, dry up!" growled Buckrow. "What with yer talk we'll be at this job all night " "I vote " began Petrak. "To the devil with ye and yer votin'!" said Buckrow. "It's time we got to work, all hands, and so we will, and the writin' chap'll turn to and do his bit, or I'll know why. If he ain't to do his part, or we don't make no use of him, I say we'll up and do for him now and have it done with.
You don't want to kill Matthews, and you don't want to be killed. It'd be one or the other if you poked your nose in there." "What do you advise?" "Lie low till you see a good opportunity. I think the chap'll come out." "But suppose he doesn't?" "You'll have to stay here, that's all. I'll divide the watch with you." "Oh, I don't like to ask you to do that, old man.
He presently found himself in a queue, behind Donovan, of officers who were passing a small window like a ticket office. Arriving, he handed in papers, and was given them back with a brief "All right." Beyond, Donovan had secured a broken-down-looking one-horse cab. "You'll be coming to the club, padre?" he asked. "Chuck in your stuff. This chap'll take it down and Bevan with it. Let's walk.
Ye're jist like most of yer set; ye strip us of our chink, and manhood, and when we've nothin' left ye fire us out. I've a son somewhar, God bless'm, and fer his sake this poor chap'll come to my cabin. B'ys, if y'll bear him tenderly, I'll lead the way. Will that do, sir?" he concluded, turning to the missionary.
That's why we didn't find any of them up above. This chap'll burst like a bubble presently. Meanwhile, there's no use in stopping here. Suppose you go below and brew some coffee and bring it up on deck while I go and see how things are looking aft. It doesn't do you any good, you know, to be looking at monsters of this sort. You can see what's left of them later on.
"You see what it is to be a man of fortun', Frank," said Dick, "and wear good clothes. I wonder what that chap'll say when he sees me blackin' boots to-morrow in the street?" "Perhaps you earn your money more honorably than he does, after all," said Frank. "Some of these mining companies are nothing but swindles, got up to cheat people out of their money."
Morris was the tenth case. He thought it was all right, he said. "Thought the thing was going to break, but it didn't." "Hear that, Berry? He doesn't always break. You must look out for that," said Burgess helpfully. Morris sat down and began to take off his pads. "That chap'll have Berry, if he doesn't look out," he said. But Berridge survived the ordeal.
Come now, are you an extraordinary one?" "I'll make a try at things anyway," replied Brent. "And I don't believe I shall lose that election, either." "You might have scraped in if you hadn't carried Simon Crood's niece away from under his very nose," said Tansley. "But now that you've brought personal matters into the quarrel, the old chap'll move every piece he has on the board to checkmate you.
