And when you come to think of it, why should they? Who'd remember an ordinary man in a grey tweed suit?" "'An ordinary man in a grey tweed suit," repeated Spargo. "Good line. You haven't any copyright in it, remember. It would make a good cross-heading." Breton laughed. "You're a queer chap, Spargo," he said. "Seriously, do you think you're getting any nearer anything?"
and further down I saw among the cross-headings: "Romantic Circumstances." "Half a minute; let's have a look," I exclaimed, snatching the paper, fearing lest under that particular cross-heading there might be some allusion to Anne, or the portrait. But there was not; the "romantic circumstances" were merely those under which the arrest was effected.
As they passed down the ladders to the lower level, they heard something which resembled a shot, and almost tumbled over each other going down into the gangway. Will and Elmer were first to reach the cross-heading where the explosion of dynamite had taken place. They called to Tommy and George, but received no answer.
I doubt now if I could write out twenty lines of 'Paradise Lost' without cross-heading them!" We finished our cigar over talk like this, and finally rose to go. Robin lingered upon the steps of the restaurant.
Some Spanish overseer, evidently at a loss for a memorandum tablet, had scribbled hieroglyphics with an indelible pencil on this particular wrapper. It was clear that the figures and abbreviated words referred to the development of a cross-heading and the position of certain lodes, but Courtenay was quick to see that the official who made those notes would recognize them.
This passageway was connected by the main one with a cross-heading, situated perhaps three hundred feet from the shaft. "I don't know much about mines," whisper Elmer as the boys stopped and listened to the clatter of the rocks as they settled down on the floor of the cavern, "but that sounds to me a whole lot like a fall from the roof. I hope the boys are not injured."
