But she seemed incapable of effort. Then, stooping he raised her tenderly in his arms and carried her to the boat, where he laid her still unresisting and incapable. With trembling limbs and weak hands he launched the cutter, and they were once more afloat and bound homeward. He dipped the baler into the fresh water he had brought with him for their daily supply, and dashed it on her forehead.

But a cow she seemed, and a cow she was found to be; and when the old woman began to milk her, every pitcher and pan, even to the baler, was soon filled with the most delicious milk. The old man troubled his head in vain as to how she came there, and sallied forth to seek for his lost net.

"It has not bled much," Vincent said, looking down at it. "No, sah; not much blood on de shirt." "Pull the coat down as far as the elbow, Dan, and bathe it for a bit." Using his cap as a baler, Dan bathed the arm for ten minutes, then the wet pad was placed in position, and with some difficulty the coat got on again.

During the south-west monsoon the sea is very calm; but in the middle of the north-east monsoon all navigation ceases on the east coast. In the outskirts of Baler rice is sown in October, and reaped in March and April. Mountain rice is not cultivated. We crossed the mouth of the river in a boat, which the horses swam after; but they were soon abandoned from unfitness.

He grew the cotton, picked it, ginned it and wove it right there. He also had a baler and made the bagging to bale it with. He only had to buy the iron bands that held the bales intact. Doctor Miller was a rich man and had a far reaching sight into how to work slaves to the best advantage. He was kind to them and knew that the best way to get the best out of men was to keep them well and happy.

I said; and I was going to him when he jerked himself fiercely away, and showed his beautiful white teeth at me. "Wo ho!" cried Morgan. "Mind, lad, or he'll have his teeth in you." "He's thirsty," I said; and I held the tin baler half full of water to him. He looked at me, then at the water, and I could see his lips move and his teeth part, showing his dry tongue quivering like that of a dog.

Stones were removed from the floor and a large hole dug, and in its gloomy depths the water could be seen rapidly rising. Using a saucepan for a baler, they baled out over 100 gallons of dirty water.

Then I blocked up the entrance, leaving only just room for me to crawl in and out. The snow began to fall steadily three days after the others had gone, and very soon covered my hut two feet deep. I melted the blubber of the whale in the boat's baler, for we had towed the fish ashore. The first potful or two I boiled over a few bits of drift-wood.

"Now then, a man to bale," cried Mr Brooke, and the coxswain fished the tin baler out of the locker forward. "No; pass it here," continued our leader. "Pull away, my lads, and Mr Herrick and I will take it in turns to bale. We must get out of this narrow creek as soon as we can." "Me balee water out," squeaked Ching, who looked very wet and miserable. "No, thank you," said Mr Brooke coldly.

Of course you had to stop in your end firmly, because if you went forward the hole went down into the water, and the water went into the hole, and forthwith you foundered with all hands i.e., you and the paddle and the calabash baler. This craft also had a strong weather helm, owing to a warp in the tree of which it had been made.
