But when I turned that corner there was nobody in sight, although the bu'sted wash-bench, with a cranberry crate propping up its lame end, was shaking a little, as if some one had set on it recent. I knocked on the door, but nobody answered.

Filled with deep anxiety for the fate of the poor women and children, our hero made a desperate struggle to snap his bonds. "No use, massa," remarked Quashy. "I's tried dat till I nearly bu'sted.

"You'd better give them a taste of dynamite, father," said Benjy that evening, as they all sat round their supper-kettle. "No, no, boy. It is bad policy to fire off all your ammunition in a hurry. We'll give it 'em bit by bit." "Just so, impress them by degrees," said Alf. "De fust warrior was nigh bu'sted by degrees," said Butterface, with a broad grin, as he stirred the kettle.
