I could do something with that at the next show at the club." "If you will let me sit down, Signor " "I'm not crabbing the bench." "But I wish the place in the center." "What you 'fraid of, Ri-Ri?" Obligingly Johnny moved over. "Why, you have me tied hand and foot. I'm afraid to move a muscle for fear you'll tell me it isn't done in Italy."
"Looks like good fishing over there near the island," he observed after a pause. "Tain't so much for fishin' as crabbin'," returned the other. "Crabbing!" repeated Mr. Heatherbloom. "A grand sport! Now if are you a crabber?" The darky confessed that crabbing was his main occupation; his boat swung right over there; for a dollar he would give the other several hours' diversion. Mr.
I feel no sort of call to vindicate the Ways of Providence; and on the whole there seems something rather ill-bred in crabbing the unattainable, and pretending that what we can't have can't be good for us. Happiness is good for us, excellent for us, necessary for us, indispensable to us. But we that is to say, poor human beings are one thing, and life is quite another.
They played in the sand, went crabbing and fishing, wading and swimming. One hot afternoon, when it was too warm to do more than sit in the shade, Mrs. Bunker, who had been lying on the porch in a hammock reading, laid aside her book and looked up. "Where has Mun Bun gone?" she asked Rose, who was playing jackstones near by. "And did Margy go with him?" "I don't know, Mother," Rose answered.
"Well, it's like fishing, only it isn't quite so hard for little folk," said Cousin Tom. "Come along, if you're through playing, and I'll show you how to go crabbing." "Are Daddy and Mother going?" asked Rose. "Yes, we'll all go. Come along." The six little Bunkers followed Cousin Tom up the beach to the inlet. There, tied to a pier not far from Cousin Tom's bungalow, was a large boat.
They kept going until the scrub concealed them, listening for sounds from the creek. There was the beat of a motor. It sounded like Orvil's boat, and Rick thought it probably was. But would Orvil continue crabbing? Again the doubt came. Had the crabber tried to kill them? He couldn't believe it. The boys stopped and slipped off their fins. "Lead on," Rick said softly. "Okay.
But it rained the next day, and after that they went sailing in Judy's own sailboat "The Princess," which she could manage as well as any man, and after that they drove to town with the Judge, so that it was over a week before the crabbing expedition came to pass. The Breakers stood on a strip of land between the bay and the ocean.
"We go to Lake George sometimes, and I have tried rowing in the smaller streams there." "And I have always known how to row," replied Louise emphatically. "That being the case I suppose I must make the crabbing party unanimous," capitulated Cleo, "although I should not enjoy a spill out here so near the inlet."
All but one of them, that is; for the fourth, a girl with wavy brown hair and bright brown eyes, pink cheeks, and a dream of a mouth, was reading to the elderly man who sat in the chair of state. "Gee, Allen," whispered one of the tall youths to the one who still wore the uniform of his country's service, "I feel as though we were crabbing your act. Can't we fellows do the disappearing act "
"Case closed," Scotty said slowly, "because the body isn't around. No proof of death, or even of accident. Pending proof of death meaning the body the jury finds that Joe Doakes is missing under mysterious circumstances and may have met with death or an accident by misadventure while engaged in his lawful business of crabbing." "That's about it," Steve agreed.
