"Come on, you space Romeo!" said Astro. "Hey ouch hey lemme go, ya big ape. You're killing your best friend!" Roger twisted around in Astro's viselike grasp, to no avail. "Space fever," explained Tom. "He'll be O.K. soon." "I think I understand," said the girl with a nervous smile. She handed Tom a small flashlight.
"That would suit me first rate," said Julius, promptly; "and my fine electric hand-torch might come into play with a vengeance. There's nothing better going for following a trail in the dark, because the light is focussed, you see, on a small compass. Why, you can pick up night-walkers like everything when the fishing season's on, by using a flashlight.
"Besides, it needs plenty of light to get views inside the house, when the windows are as small and measly as they seem to be here." "Oh! as for that," declared the other, airily, "leave it to me. I've been smart enough to fetch along an entire outfit for taking flashlight pictures; so you see we can get all we want after night comes."
Apart from any other trouble, Thornton did not like the prospect and, away from Helena now, his face was serious. He cranked the engine no result. He tried it again with equal futility then, going to the tool-box, he took out his electric flashlight, and, lifting the engine hood, began to peer into the machinery. Everything seemed all right.
"There's a flashlight, Carlos," Bobby said, "in the door flap of the automobile." Paredes started across the yard with a haste, it seemed to Bobby, almost eager. Striking matches as they went, the doctor and Bobby hurried to the front of the house. The rooms appeared undisturbed in their decay. The shutters were closed. The front door was barred.
The flashlight in his hand winked down the length of the room. If was a dangerous thing to do, but it was still more dangerous to stumble into some object and make a noise. He darted forward, circuiting a workbench, a stool, a small hand forge. Again the flashlight gleamed.
Kennedy pressed the button before him, twice. "Now I want you to see, actually see Miss Lamar meet her death." The lights went out, then the picture flashed on the screen before us, revealing the gloom and mystery of the opening scene of "The Black Terror." We saw the play of the flashlight, finally the fingers and next the arm of Stella as she parted the curtains.
Also he had provided matches, candles, and even a cranky little flashlight. Only chewing tobacco, because you can smell smoke a long way when you are hunting escaped convicts. And a can of water half the size of an ash can! Despair fastened upon Old Man Anderson, and a wave of sickness swept over him. All the food in the world wouldn't bring Slattery back to life.
The packs were laid on the ground, and the mules shook themselves, while the jackals that haunt the Khyber came closer, to sit in a ring and watch. King dug a flashlight out of one of the packs, gave it to Ismail to hold, sat on the other pack and began to write on a memorandum pad.
But at last there was a rustling in the trees, and they could hear the branches being pushed aside as some creature made its way slowly toward the water. "All ready, Bessie?" whispered Dolly. "When I give you a squeeze press that button; that will set the flashlight off, and I'll take the picture as you do it." They waited tensely, and Bessie was as excited as Dolly herself.
