Say to the people that I have come to understand the nature and causes of their mobs." "Mobs?" said the puzzled young blood-hound. "I wish to understand a land which is governed by mobs; I wish to know, who lives upon the madness of others." "You have been studying a mob this morning?" inquired the reporter.
In running thither for shelter and succor, we have only fled from the hungry blood-hound to the devouring wolf from a corrupt and selfish world, to a hollow and hypocritical church." Speech before American and Foreign Anti-Slavery Society, May, 1854.
The road here descended, and in its descent wound round a hill and led into a gentle hollow, on each side of which hills arose which were covered with trees. Within this glen was disclosed a frightful spectacle. A man lay on the ground, torn from his horse by a huge blood-hound, which even then was rending him with its huge fangs!
On this being pulled there was a faint tinkle, followed by a canine uproar of the most miscellaneous description, the deep-mouthed bay of the blood-hound, the sharp yap-yap of the toy terrier, and a chorus of intermediate undistinguishable barkings, some fierce, some frolicsome, some expectant, being mixed up with the rattling of chains.
His long black muzzle and broad hanging ears gave him quite a different appearance, however; and told you that he was a hound. He was, in fact, a blood-hound, with the cross of a mastiff a powerful animal. He was crouching near Francois, watching for the offal of the birds. Now, young reader, you have before you a "night-camp" of the Boy hunters.
And further still, the boots I have worn are so saturated with my own magnetism, my own vital activity, that if anyone else wear them I feel it is a trespass, almost as if another man used my hand to knock away a fly. I doubt very much if a blood-hound, when it takes a scent, smells, in our sense of the word.
"Take the rooms up stairs, and leave the task of telling him his peril to me: the sooner it is done the better. There is but a year at most not much too long to sell his goods, and get him away across the world, erasing every footstep behind him. If he leave one no matter how slight the clew Richard will track him like a blood-hound." "We will come here at once to-morrow," cried Harry, eagerly.
When we are off during the day we always leave Jess and Jim to guard the camp. Jess is a Scotch collie and Jim is a blood-hound. He's there in the kennel. Neither man nor varmint would have any chance with them." "I been use' to live alone when my husban' is away, M'sieu' Brownee. I not 'fraid like you t'ink. But if Gougou be cold and hongry."
But, to-day, as he flung himself on the divan his visions took a new direction. He could not help thinking of the pale girl whom he had saved from the jaws of the blood-hound of the white cold hand which for an instant had clung to his neck of the cold words with which she had afterwards repelled him. Antinous began to long violently to see Selene.
They can not see us from above; mayhap we've thrown them off the scent." I thought it most unlikely; but his guess was right and mine was wrong. Though any of these savages could lift a trail in daylight, following it at top speed like a trained blood-hound, yet now the darkness baffled them. So there was some running to and fro in the road above our heads, and then the troopers galloped down.
