"You can't reach him," she declared, half triumphantly. "Yas, Ah c'n," he answered. "Ah c'n chop through with th' hatchet." He was between the fireplace and a corner, feeling over the logs with his hands. She ran to him. "Oh, how can you think of it?" she demanded huskily. "Simon's so friendly and came to us for a home. How can you kill him! Maybe you could eat him, but I couldn't.
Sift one cup of flour and one teaspoon of salt together. Chop in one tablespoon of butter, and add milk to make a very stiff dough; chop thoroughly and knead until smooth; make into small balls and roll each one into a thin wafer. Place in shallow greased and floured pans and bake in a hot oven until they puff and are brown.
In about half an hour the untidy girl, not yet dressed for her evening labours, brought him his chop and potatoes, and Mr Harding begged for a pint of sherry.
I'm kicking up a horrible row out there with my interference, and a lot of instruments at the other end of that beam must be cutting up all kinds of didoes, right now. They'll check up on that ship with the expedition, by radio and what-not, and when they find out that it's clear out here chop! Didn't get to see much, did you?"
My, what a lot you've got to learn. It's made of logs and they're built in woods and places where it's hard to make a regular road, or would cost too much. All that's needed, you see, is to chop down trees enough to make a clear path, and then to put down the logs, close together. It's rough going, and no wagon with springs can be driven over it, but it's all right for a buckboard."
We can see what manner of man Trundle was, as he is shown seated in the barouche, at the review, between the two sisters, each with long ringlets and parasols. He is a good-looking young man, with mutton- chop whiskers and black hair, on which his hat is set jauntily. He is described as "a young gentleman apparently enamoured of one of the young ladies in scarfs and pattens."
His coat was off and his sleeves rolled up to the elbow; he looked more like a man preparing to chop wood than a physician engaging in a struggle with death; but Dr. Young had the fighting strain. Otherwise he would never have persisted in Eldara. Already the subtle atmosphere of sickness had come upon the room.
Let's try for it, old fellow, and then we'll have a good drink, and a bite to eat, and maybe ten minutes for a nap before we take the short trail home. There's some of the corn chop left for you, Billy, so hustle up, old boy, and get there." Billy, with an answering snort, responded to his master's words, and carefully picked his way over boulders and rocks down to the valley below.
In the meantime make a sponge cake batter of four eggs, one cup of pulverized sugar, one cup of flour and pour over the apples and bake one-half hour. Eat warm or cold, with or without sauce. Plain baked apples can be substituted for the filled apples. Take half a pound of suet and chop it to a powder. Soak a loaf of stale bread, squeeze out the water and add to the suet.
"And we can always keep warm, you know, even if there is a cold spell in May, because the boys chop wood for us." "Yes, and we do their mending; oh! and quite often the shoe pinches the stocking, I mean when the holes are just haggles!" The eyebrows of a fair-haired, pretty girl of fifteen were ruefully arched, over eyes of merriment.
