"Well, Doc, she's safe now, and we didn't lose our scalps," he said. "It is a cause of congratulation all round, Harding." "Now, Doctor Dick, you have got to tell the young lady about the poor crazy fellow." "Did you not tell her?" "That his wound had crazed him, yes; but that is not the worst of it." "Ah, yes, you mean that he has been captured?"
"Take care, man, let me go" Transom and I volunteered in a breath "No, no, I will go myself," continued Don Ricardo; "let go, man God help me, the old creature is crazed, el viejo no vale." "Here, here! help, Don Ricardo!" cried his wife.
When I have said that it is the Old Homestead and Xmas Eve, and that the farmer is in great trouble and throwing tamarack at the fire, surely you ought to guess! The Old Homestead was mortgaged! Ten years ago, reckless with debt, crazed with remorse, mad with despair and persecuted with rheumatism, John Enderby had mortgaged his farmstead for twenty-four dollars and thirty cents.
Who is ignorant that resistance is not a power at all, though we properly enough give the name resistance to one of matter's phenomena.

She had been named for my wife, who had made the child a special pet. Little Mary and Jennie were almost heartbroken by her death. They cried continually, and could not be pacified for several days. I telegraphed her father, but it seems my dispatch, for some unknown reason, was not delivered for three days. When it was he was almost crazed by the unwelcome news.

His frame, once powerful and commanding, and retaining a semblance of strength and majesty even in its decay, was yet crazed by infirmities and subject to paroxysms of excruciating pain.
But imagine a crowd, a crazed crowd, all pushing to the center, and then in the center a face thrown back so you can see it for just an instant before it sinks to suffocation. If you can fancy that look the last gasp for breath of one caught squeezed just going down a hatred of the crowd that got her there, just to suffocate her and perhaps one last wild look at the hills out beyond the crowd.
Then into the crazed orgie leaped the Toad-woman like a gigantic scarlet spider, screaming prophecy and performing the inconceivable and nameless rites of Ak-e, Ne-ke, and Ge-zis, until, in her frenzy, she went stark mad, and the devil worship began with the awful sacrifice of Leshee in Biskoonah. Horror-stricken, nauseated, I caught Mount's arm, whispering: "Enough, in God's name! Come away!"
