As for lobsters, "they were becomin' a winter fish, somehow, and up the harbours you started catchin' 'em at Christmas and lost 'em by Eastertide:" while the ordinary crabbing-grounds appeared to be clean bewitched. One theorist loudly called for a massacre of sea-birds, especially shags and gannets.
Number Fifteen lagged a little and kept the master botherin' for a while, but she's catchin' up now. I wouldn't dare have you touch her 'cause she's runnin' too close to be disturbed." "Then I'll go along. Give my respects to Mr. Hawley, Ebenezer." "I will, sir," and the butler let his visitors out.
"How's she gettin' along?" asked Asaph. "Progressin' backwards, same as ever. She's no better, thank you, and the doctor's given up hopes." "When you goin' to tell her she can clear out?" "What?" Captain Cy had returned to his paper and did not hear the question. "I say when is she goin' to be bounced? Deefness ain't catchin', is it?" "I wouldn't wonder if it might be.
I ain't never been able to take much stock in catchin' consumption. There was Mis' Gay night an' day with Susan for ten years, an' she's jest as well as anybody. I should be afraid 'twas a good deal likelier to be in your family. Does Lois cough?" "None to speak of." "Well, there's more kinds of consumption than one." Mrs. Babcock made quite a long call. She shook Mrs.
She will grapple for the broken cable ends, and as soon as she catches our end she'll send us a message. It's simple enough." "Like takin' wormwood tea easy enough if you've been brought up that way. I think I'd make more money catchin' codfish, myself," commented the Captain dryly. Ralph laughed. "Well, it really is a very simple matter," he said.
Evil communications endamnify good manners, as sure as rates; one scabby sheep will infect a whole flock vice is as catchin' as that nasty disease the Scotch have, it's got by shakin' hands, and both eend in the same way in brimstone. I approbate domestic factories, but nothin' further for us. It don't suit us or our institutions.
They few barrels of food as we've got won't last us for so very long, even if we goes on short commons. And we can't always reckon on catchin' fish and turtle, or gettin' eggs, and a few months 'd find us in the same plight as was pore William Evans when we first came ashore on this here island. Oh, I pray that they may be keepin' a sharp lookout aboard they ships!"
Can't marry a woman now-a-days till you're so deaf you have to cock your head like a parrot to hear what she says, and so longsighted you can't see what she looks like nearer than arm's-length. Here is another chance for you, I said. What do you want nicer than such a young lady as Iris? It's no use, he answered. I look at them girls and feel as the fellah did when he missed catchin' the trout.
"I thought anybody that had been raised in th' Panhandle would know better'n to chase greased lightnin'," rebuked Hopalong. "Yu has got about as much show catchin' one of them as a tenderfoot has of bustin' an outlawed cayuse." "Shore; I know it," responded Pie, grinning. "But it's fun seem' them hunt th' horizon. What are yu doin' down here an' where are yore pardners?"
"There are some," replied the hunter, who was in general charge of the larder, "but it would be a change for us if we could get a few turkeys. We ought to find some fish, too, in the stream in the valley, and I think I shall set some o' the boys to catchin' them.
