The children were overjoyed, but Gable was much concerned for Dick, and stood up in his place ejaculating 'Crickey!'in a loud voice and following the hunt with frightened eyes. Meanwhile Joel Ham, B.A., sat at his desk, contemplating the roof with profound interest, and taking a casual mechanical pull at his bottle.
That gun will carry seven miles at an elevation of less than forty-five degrees!" "Oh, crickey!" I exclaimed; whereat he and the other officers laughed at my astonishment, which my face betrayed, of course, as usual. The crew, though, who were near were too well trained to laugh, except according to orders. Being men-o'-war's men, they only smiled at my ejaculation.
"I believe the Kennebunk has got new orders," Whistler rejoined thoughtfully. "Whether or not they are for her to sail for the other side, I don't know. I heard a hint about it when we came aboard the cutter." "Crickey! Let 'em hit it up, then," urged Torry. "If this little old tub doesn't go fast enough I'll jump overboard and swim!" "Oi, oi! Not me!" objected Ikey Rosenmeyer.
And he always had the feeling of a freed slave when he passed the gate on his return, never failing to note with delight the clean smell of the yard after the stuffiness of school, sucking it in through glad nostrils, and thinking to himself, "O crickey, it's fine to be home!"
"We don't know," Neale said, in a worried tone. Then suddenly there was a sharp crack from inside the snow castle. "Crickey! it's coming down!" exclaimed Wilbur.

My eyes! Oh, crickey!" cried Cap, breaking into her newsboy's slang, from mere consternation. "Yes, my dear, it is perfectly true!" replied the old man, growing furiously red, and rubbing his face. "Oh! oh! oh! Hold me! I'm 'kilt!" cried Cap, falling back in her chair in an inextinguishable fit of laughter, that shook her whole frame. She laughed until the tears ran down her cheeks.
At that moment the man in the checked suit looked up and caught Ted and Kit staring at him. Hastily calling the attention of the man with the red necktie to them, he hurried around the corner, and the other followed. Ted ran to the corner of the station, but all he could see of either was through a swirl of dust as the motor car in which they were riding flew up the street. "By crickey!
"Mary says she don't believe Betty would mind even that, if her husband only seemed to care to to understand, you know, how it had been with her and how Crickey! I guess they've come," broke off the old man suddenly, craning his neck for a better view of the door. From outside had sounded the honk of an automobile horn and the wild cheering of men and boys.
"Crickey!" thought the boy, "I hope Sam will have a better opinion of me than she does, or I'm likely to get into trouble." He began to back off the porch, and had his ankle not pained him so, he certainly would have set off on a run.
By crickey, I won't stand this from you. Goin' back on me, eh?" "I'm a Republication, 'Rast." "So you are," said Mr. Hopkins slowly, his temper at white heat "And that mortgage is two months overdue." "Go over to the bank and get your money, then. It's waiting for you, Hopkins interest and all. Go and get it and let me alone. I'm busy."
