Robert and puts the layout before him. It looks like a bad mess, with Mildred on the toboggan; for Mr. Robert has said he'd see what could be done. He don't promise anything; but Benny's always been such a willin' performer that he guesses maybe he can talk him out of wantin' to get married. He didn't know Benny, though.
"Cause if we ARE rich we won't have ter keep tryin' ter make folks THINK we are. They'll know it without our tryin'." "Benny!" The rest were laughing; but Benny's mother had raised shocked hands of protest. "You are incorrigible, child. The East Side, indeed! We shall live in a house of our own, now, of course but it won't be on the East Side."
But not one of them looked in the right direction. In spite of Benny's frequent little derelictions from the path he might have been expected to walk in, his mother was greatly surprised and troubled to hear that he had not arrived at his grandmother's, and, furthermore, that he had not been seen on the road. "Why, nothing could have tempted him to stay away from grandma's," said she.
It is shaped like a boat-hook, but is sharper. Joe quickly caught this up. Jumping to the platform, on which the tank stood, Joe whispered to Bill Watson and Jim Tracy to stand as near him as possible. "We can sort of screen our movements that way," he said. Reaching the hook down into the water, Joe caught it in a portion of Benny's "fish" suit.
For seven long years he, hacked and whacked With all his might and main Until the Brit-ish sailed away And did not come again. In old times there lived in Penn-syl-va-ni-a a little fellow whose name was Ben-ja-min West. He lived in a long stone house. He had never seen a picture. The country was new, and there were not many pictures in it. Benny's father was a Friend or Quaker.
If bears or lions howl at me they'll get ammonia from my tree," she rhymed, exhibiting Benny's water pistol. "Spoof," Corinne exclaimed; "I thought we had wild terrors up at Windward, but we haven't come across bears nor injuns. Wish I had brought my illegal sling shot that I only use in self defense." "Treddie can tread," remarked Isabel. "Who was it walked on the water?"
The ball grounds were to him the "Y" at the Junction, the shunting yards, or the turn bridge at the roundhouse, for Benny's father was an engineer, who ran the fast mail over the big western division of the new road, where mountains and forests were cut and levelled and tunnelled for the long, heavy transcontinental train to climb through, and in his own home the boy heard little but railroad talk, so he came by his preferences honestly.
The light wakes you, you draw the stocking across your eyes, and off you go again." "Yes, but supposing the stocking does the same?" objected Dunham. The girls laughed, much to Benny's disapproval. "You shouldn't toss around so, then," said Edna. "That isn't kind," remarked John. "Benny, I trust there is something black on board to draw across these lunch boxes.
Trevors set his teeth and waited. Benny at last cooled the coffee and held it to his lips. Trevors drank swiftly, draining the cup. "Get this coat off me," he commanded. "Curse you, don't tear my arms off! Slit the sleeves." Benny's big, razor-edged butcher-knife cut away coat and shirt sleeves.
"You've been makin' the town's mock o' me with Peter Benny's help is that what you two funny seamen have walked up here to confess?" "There was no names given, ma'am," stammered Cai. "I do assure you " "No names given!" Mrs Bosenna in a temper was terribly handsome. Her indignation so overawed the pair, as to rob them of all presence of mind for the moment.
