"Wasn't it great to be shut up in that dark room!" he exclaimed, when Anne told him of Bill Mains' mistake. "Wish I'd been there. But maybe the 'Sea Gull' will run afoul of a pirate ship before long," he concluded hopefully. When Anne introduced him to Mrs. Freeman Amos took off his cap and bowed very politely, as he had noticed Captain Nash do.

In attempting to pass the former point with four Pan-Handle herds in the spring of 1888, I ran afoul of a quarantine convention. The cattle were under contract in Wyoming, and it was my intention not even to halt the herds, but merely to take on supplies in passing.

The poet should mete out their deserts to all his heroes; honor to whom honor, and infamy to whom infamy, is due. "It is true that the wrong in this case is in a great degree fathered upon our own Massachusetts; and it maybe said that it is afoul bird that pollutes its own nest. We deny the applicability of the rather musty proverb. All the worse.

The suffering falls upon the alien, who runs afoul of their customs, especially one who has known the delight of liberty." "Without it, what is life to the smallest moth!" These were the days I kept an eagle eye on Jane Gray. She grew steadily stronger and her activities resembled a hive of bees.

There seemed to be magic in the touch of Vona's caressing palm on the stricken man's forehead; the words she was murmuring in his ear were stirring his faculties. He opened his eyes and stared at her and at the two men, vague wonderment in his expression. "What is it what has happened?" he muttered. "That's what we want to know," said Starr. "What did happen? Who got afoul of you?" "I don't know.

Did you see him?" "Certainly." "Bah, you must be soused to the gills!" "You only wish you were as sober as I. Bah!" "What? You're so full you can't talk!" "Go on; shut up. You're so drunk you can't stand; I tell you, if you run afoul of this guy" and Besuguito pointed to Leandro "you're in for a bad time." "Hell, no!" "That's my opinion, anyhow."

But, of course, Aunt Patsy's brain is cracked, and she didn't know what she was talking about. I shall keep the shoes, however, and if ever the venerable purple sun-bonnet runs afoul of me, I shall hold them up before it and see what happens." And so, very well satisfied with the result of his visit to Hewlett's, he rode on to the Green Sulphur Springs.

'Twas an awful strain on the camera, but it stood it fine; and the photographs he printed up that afternoon was the most horrible collection of mince-pie dreams that ever a sane man run afoul of. Rosy used one of the grass huts for a dark room; and while he was developing them plates, they could hear him screaming from sheer fright at being shut up alone with 'em in the dark.

Conlon was an Irishman, and naturally, therefore, no coward. Yet with the possibility that Tom would run afoul of a contact-exploding bomb and send them all skyward, the engine tender waited at the rail with drawn breath. Finally, there was a ripple on the water. Then Tom's head appeared; next his shoulders. "Conlon!" "Here, sir." "Here is one of the bombs. Handle it carefully." "Trust me, sir."

Not only Robin himself but all the band were outlaws and dwelled apart from other men, yet they were beloved by the country people round about, for no one ever came to jolly Robin for help in time of need and went away again with an empty fist. And now I will tell how it came about that Robin Hood fell afoul of the law.
