Look at me, an' take warnin' so you won't make the same mistake an' go to makin' an' sellin' fancy work again.... "But I fooled 'em everybody. At the beginnin' the bettin' was even. By the sixth round the wise gazabos was offerin' two to one against me. I was licked from the first drop outa the box anybody could see that; but he couldn't put me down for the count.
"The lad is an idiot," said Sunderland, with a shrug. "Come, Harry, you have fooled it long enough. I had a guess of this mad fancy of yours. But the game is up now, lad. King George is king to-day, and his friends have all power in their grip. There's no more hope for your Jacobites. Tell me now the Pretender is in your clothes, I see where did you part from him?" "Why, don't you know?"
They gaped at Hazel, sullen and critical. An irrepressible question broke from Hazel. 'What for did you have 'em? Sally stared. 'What for? she repeated. 'Surely to goodness, girl, you're not as innicent-like as that? 'I ain't ever going to have any, Hazel went on with great firmness, as she eyed the children. 'God above! muttered Sally. 'He's fooled her worse'n me!
"That's what it is," Dick replied quietly. "Though I've never seen one before, it's hard to be fooled, for that chap looks just like his published photographs. And look at that queer, brownish, half-yellowish sky back of it. It certainly looks forbidding." "And we're going to have a stormy afternoon of it!" muttered Dave.
You 've got a wooden decoy up there in Canada, and when Blake gets there he 'll be told his man slipped away the day before. Then another decoy will bob up, and Blake will go after that. And when you 've fooled him two or three times he 'll sail back to New York and break me for giving him a false tip." "Did you give it to him?" "No, he hammered it out of me. But you knew he was going to do that.
Whoever opened it that night will get fooled on it the next time he tries. I had quite a row with Robert about it, and the conceit was taken out of him not a little." "Why, how was this, doctor?" asked Miller, with immediate interest. "I had not heard. Are there have there been any new developments?" And lowering his voice as he asked, the major drew the post surgeon into the hall-way.
But in the case of this boy everything was contrary. His parents held his hands and feet because they wanted money. And the king was ready to kill him with his own hand, to save his own life. And the giant, who is a kind of a god, had come there especially to eat him. So the boy thought: They are ridiculously fooled about their bodies, which are fragile, worthless, the seat of pain and suffering.
I was about to say he had old Jones as badly fooled as you or worse, damn him. Barnes, if we ever lay hands on that friend of yours, well, he won't have to fry in hell. He'll be burnt alive. Thank God, my mind's at rest on one score. SHE didn't skip out with him. They all think she did. Not one of them suspects that she came away with you.
He was a new man outer England fresh caught and talked down his throat. And he fooled ME the darter of an old family that was settled on the right bank of the Mizzouri afore Dan'l Boone came to Kentucky with his new philanderings. Then he broke up, and went all to pieces when we struck Californy, and left ME Sally Magregor, whose father had niggers of his own to wash for Rough and Ready!
It was not believable that the corporation would allow itself to be fooled so easily, would rush open-eyed into the trap. How had it happened? Osterman, however, threw his hat into the air with wild whoops of delight. Old Broderson permitted himself a feeble cheer. Even Magnus beamed satisfaction.
