Sanborn; second officer, Mr. Partridge, and third officer, Mr. Richardson. "Very well, then," said Mr. Hamilton. "That is all." He turned again to the negro.

"Mind, Tom," said Mr. Hamilton, "no weapons."

The three of them lived by themselves in one of the most substantial and beautiful houses in Centerville; so the boy's sudden sense of anxiety could be easily understood. He was really the man of the house, and often felt his conscience stab him when he left his mother and Violet alone. "Oh! stow that, Will!" urged the more practical Jerry. "It isn't going to turn out as bad as that.

"We must lose no more time now, mates," said Ned Gale, as we climbed up the bank. "We must get some way inland before daylight, and then stow ourselves away in a wood till we have time to look about us. We must keep clear of all cottages, for the white-brown fellows hereabouts would make no bones of selling us to the Dons, if they thought they could get anything for us.

The canoe was still in its hiding-place underneath the ruined pier, and Constans's first care was to stow away in the stern-locker the two volumes of the scientific cyclopædia that he had been reading at the time of his capture.

What is that Spanish brig taking in?" he continued, turning to little Pierrepoint, who, with the first lieutenant, had visited her. "Nothing," answered the lad. "She only arrived yesterday; and her hold is half full of casks in which she is going to stow her palm-oil." "Of course," remarked the master sarcastically, turning to me.

In great alarm, we told the sailor. "Never mind," he answered, quite calmly. "Stow the files away, and lie down on the bed, and pretend to be fast asleep.

Then after a pause he added, "Besides I think it will be rather fun breaking into a strange cottage; we may have to get down the chimney." At this Dudley's face cleared. "I'll come," he said; "we'll go directly after dinner." "And we'll stow away a little of our pudding to take him sick people always have puddings." They had no difficulty in carrying out this plan.
