Thence was had the view of a wide, open valley extending toward the southeast to the Bay of Chaleurs and bounded on the northeast and southwest by highlands. The former were pointed out by the guide as the Chic Choc Mountains, in the district of Gaspe; the latter, it appeared beyond question, extended to the Bay of Chaleurs, and strike it below the Matapediac.
If a prisoner went to this 'gentleman, he did not ask after his illness, but after his nationality, and for the reason of his remand imprisonment. It would be wasted, for in any case you will be hanged." Besides Klofac, the following four National Socialist deputies were also imprisoned: Choc, Burival, Vojna and Netolicky.
He'd called it 'Choc, because the puppy loved chocolates so well as Joey himself, and the dog had grown to be his dearest treasure. Well, Teddy gave over his games now and stood up and showed a great deal of annoyance. His bead-black eyes flashed and his jaw stood out, as it always did when he was vexed. "Too bad!" he said, "and if I knew who the man was, I'd have him up for libel I reckon.
"Brown studies aren't permitted in ballrooms, Mr Sinclair!" she rallied him in her gentlest voice and Lance was forgotten. "Come and tie an extra big choc. on to my fishing-rod." Roy disapproved of the chocolate figure, as derogatory to masculine dignity. Six brief-skirted, briefer-bodiced girls stood on chairs, each dangling a chocolate cream from a fishing-rod of bamboo and coloured ribbon.
'Yes, answered Milly. 'I suppose he's coming up to-night? 'I asked him to. 'There'll be a frantic row one day. I'm sure there will, Milly said meditatively, after a pause. 'Oh! there's bound to be! Ethel assented, and she added: 'Mother does trust us. Have a choc? Milly said yes, and Ethel drew a box of bonbons from her pocket.
