This was, it is believed, the act of the surgeon and captain. The captain and surgeon would not. They then tried to haul him in, but his strength failed and he got on shore. You perceive, then, that up to this moment also the same obstacle existed in the minds of the captain and surgeon.

Here they be, to haul us out of this filthy hole! I forgive the unmannerly folks that allus used to welcome us." They shook hands through the bars while Uncle Peter stood aside. He felt that his official station forbade his joining this fraternal reunion.

Another moment and the mail-bags were swept into the van, while the out-going bags were swept off the projecting arm into the fixed net of the station. The train went through the station with a shriek and a roar. There was a bridge just beyond. The junior sorter forgot to haul up the net, which caught some object close to the bridge no one knew what or how. No one ever does on such occasions!

"I helped him find it, and I kinda feel as if I'm square with him now for not giving him my half the claim. Twenty-three hundred would be a good price for a half interest, as the claims stand, don't yuh think, Cash?" "Yeah well, I dunno's I'd sell for that. But on the showing we've got so far yes, five thousand, say, for the claims would be good money." "Pretty good haul for a kid, anyway.

I'll make out a list, and the boys can attend to that to-morrow. And I'll bake up a lot of stuff for lunches on the train, too. We're not going to squander money in the dining car." "Say, we'll just borry one of them dray teams from the Acme corral, by cripes, and haul our own stuff to the depot!" Big Medicine exclaimed with enthusiasm. "Save us four or five dollars right there!"

I dare not allow anyone to repass the bounds of Eternity the insurmountable ramparts, nor deign you harbour any here, wherefore, send them on to their doom, spite of the great Evil One. He has been able to array in a moment many a haul of a thousand or ten thousand souls, and allot each one his place, and what difficulty will he have with these seven now, however dangerous they may be?

But I could retire and settle down and live blamelessly ever after. I'm not sure that it couldn't be done on this pearl alone!" "Then you don't still think it too remarkable to sell?" "We might take a fishery and haul it up with smaller fry. It would come after months of ill luck, just as we were going to sell the schooner; by Jove, it would be the talk of the Pacific!"

There is very little doubt in my mind that its bed is very deep, owing to the trough-like formation of it, and also because I have seen my crew haul up fishing-baskets, sunk in the sea near to the shore, from very considerable depths, by long ropes with trimmers attached.

When wounded, he lashes it from side to side, or carries it over his back, up in the air; this indicates "Look out! haul off a bit!" But when he carries it stiff and horizontal, with a slight curve in the middle of it, it says plainly, "Keep back, or kill me as quick as you can," for that is what Indians call the mad-lazy, and is a sign that mischief is brewing.

"Surely there are details in her story which, if we looked at it in cold blood, would excite our suspicion. These burglars made a considerable haul at Sydenham a fortnight ago. Some account of them and of their appearance was in the papers, and would naturally occur to anyone who wished to invent a story in which imaginary robbers should play a part.
