'No, there's no harm in it, I know, returned Rob, with the same distrustful glance at the packer's and the bottle-maker's, and the church; 'but blabbing, if it's only about the number of buttons on my master's coat, won't do. I tell you it won't do with him. A cove had better drown himself. He says so. I shouldn't have so much as told you what his name was, if you hadn't known it.
You and I have wit enough to hold our tongues about everything that would damage us, and tell all that needs telling. So, no blabbing and we are friends." "Through thick and thin!" cried Madame Marneffe, delighted to have a sheep-dog, a confidante, a sort of respectable aunt. "Listen to me; the Baron is doing a great deal in the Rue Vanneau " "I believe you!" interrupted Lisbeth.
It was the turn of the handy man to laugh. "I filed one fellow and eight kids for one hundred and sixty acres each." "You didn't contract to pay each of the little olive branches three-hundred?" "Lord, no! If the dad sits tight till we prove up entry, he's to get three-hundred! No fear of his blabbing.
He's looking for Marchand, and blabbing what he means to do when he finds him. That ain't good for Dennis. If he kills Marchand, it's murder, and even if the lawyers plead unwritten law, and he ain't hung, and his wife ain't a widow, you can't have much married life in gaol. It don't do you any good to be punished for punishing someone else. Jonas George Almighty look! Look, Osterhaut!"
Well, the old lady fell in love with me; and although she was not quite the vision of youthful fancy, as the saying is, for she had only one tooth in her head, and that stuck out half an inch beyond her upper lip, still she had other charms for a poor devil like me; so I made up my mind to marry her, for she made cruel love to me as I laid in bed, and before I was fairly out of bed the thing was settled, and a week afterwards the day was fixed; but her relatives got wind of it, for, like an old fool, she could not help blabbing, and so one day there came a file of soldiers, with a corporal at their head, informing me that I was now quite well, and therefore, if it was all the same to me, I must go to prison.
My old friend, A. Tennyson, said, as he so well said almost everything: Prophet, curse me the blabbing lip, And curse me the British vermin, the rat. Let us regard the word "British" as interchangeable ad lib. A rat is a rat. This man was hunting about the hotel lobby like a starved dog that had forgotten where he had buried a bone.
Yes, I must slit the old lady's windpipe; but the Kinchen what the devil shall I do to keep him from blabbing, since I can't make up my mind to kill him? Suddenly, a horrible thought flashed through the villain's mind. 'Kinchen, he whispered, with a fiend-like laugh 'I have thought of a plan by which to silence your tongue forever. He drew a huge clasp-knife from his pocket.
"What you telling me about it for? Your brother'd skin yuh alive if he caught you blabbing it all out to me." Tomaso looked a little scared and uneasy. He dropped his eyes and began poking a hole in the sand with his toe. Then he looked up very candidly into Johnny's face. "Me, I'm awful lonesome," he explained. "I'm riding here and I'm see you jus' like friend. You boy like me.
Let her say nay to us both, and it please her, but don't force her to a marriage of compulsion by needless blabbing." "I will hold my peace, if that seems best for Miss Meredith; not otherwise, my Lord," answered Mobray, flinging from the room.
He says he tried the gate after that, but found it locked." "Thompson tells you this story, does he?" "Yes." "Well," said I, "it's a pretty wild kind of a tale, and all I have got to say is, that neither you nor Thompson had better go blabbing it around too much. Mum is the word where such men as Mr. Blake are concerned." And I departed to hunt up Thompson.
