I am afraid of these also. I am afraid to look upon these dumb heads." "Then cover them over with flowers, and thou wilt believe thou dost see flower-baskets before thee." "Let me have them buried, Halil. Do not make me fear thee also. Thou wouldst have me go on loving thee, wouldst thou not? If only thou wouldst come with me to Anatolia, where nobody would know anything about us!"
"I'm glad you quieted Aunt Elizabeth, for it would be just like her to send detectives after us." Both laughed as he whispered this to her. As the cab whirled away she said: "What happy fools we are!" "Sit back, quick! Cover your face," he suddenly cried. "What who is it?" she giggled. "We just passed a policeman, and he looked rather hard at the windows," he cried, with a broad grin.
"Find Colonel Barrington, and make him cover everything before he's ruined. Dane, you and I, and a few others, will see the dollars rolling into Silverdale." Dane found Barrington, who listened with a grim smile to what he had to tell him. "The words are yours, Dane, but that is all," he said.

The count himself came forward and took off the cover of a dish, and I fell to at once on an excellent roast chicken.
