All leaped out and gathered around while Captain Putnam made an examination. "He has had a bad fall," said the master of the school. "But I doubt if any bones are broken." They raised the sufferer up, and presently Andy stirred and opened his eyes. "Whoa!" he murmured. "Whoa!" "He must think he is still on horseback!" cried Pepper, and but for Andy's pale face he would have laughed outright.
"It will bear that colour," said I. "And I'll go on to prove it you outright," said he. "They have the right to hold James in prison, yet they cannot deny me to visit him. They have no right to hold the witnesses; but am I to get a sight of them, that should be as free as the Lord Justice Clerk himself! Sirs! And the Act of seventeen hunner? Mr.
The dog sat quietly down at the foot of the tree, and fixed his eyes on the savage with a glare that spoke unutterable things. At the same time he displayed his full complement of teeth, and uttered a sound like distant thunder. Joe almost laughed, and Henri did laugh outright.
Some of the victims were killed outright by the impact of the torpedo and the second explosion. Fortunately the vessel remained afloat and her wireless brought rescue craft from both sides of the Channel. The rescuers picked up practically all of those in the water who had donned life belts and took aboard those in the boats.
I laughed outright at the idea. Why, with the prospect of meeting Gwen Darrow before him, an absolute unit of measure, with a snail's pace, would have made good its escape from him.
It was precisely against your doing anything of that sort that I thought I was safe. Oh, I would rather she had burned the papers outright than that!" "No, it isn't a promise," said Miss Tita. "Pray what is it then?" She hesitated and then she said, "She tried to burn them, but I prevented it. She had hid them in her bed." "In her bed?" "Between the mattresses.
"I little thought you would come to so untimely an end." Bella cried outright, and Kate could scarcely restrain her feelings. We now proceeded back to the landing-place, and Jack and the boys having drawn up the canoe to the spot where she usually lay concealed, we commenced our return home. My young cousins and Natty assisted me up the hill.
I could scarcely keep from laughing outright to see him struggling against the effects of the opiate. He was distinctly angry, and I didn't blame him. Tom had a Southern temper. His eyes were open now, and they showed a gleam or two of fire. But the drug still clouded his mind and bound his tongue. "C-c-confound you," he stammered, "I'll s-smash you." He tried to rise from the couch.
I figured that the story of Joe the injured brakeman must be false. If he had an eighty-five-dollar watch he could borrow forty on it. Why should his "friend" have sold it outright for twenty-five? The fakery of it was plain to any one who stopped to think. Who then would be fool enough to pay twenty-five dollars for a fake watch at a side auction? Not I. I was too wise.
The upper floors we will talk over by and by. Some people have a fancy for filling in between studs with soft brick, but I don't believe in it. It is seldom well done, it injures the frame, and costs more than back plastering, without being much if any better. Rather build a brick house outright.
