"All right," answered the Major; "we had rather a chilly night, but are feeling first rate now." "Dat iss goot," responded the Colonel; and continued in his loud tone, "our friends are right out here in de bush; I reckon dey'll show up presently. Maybe so dey will give us a touch of deir artillery practice, but dat hurts nobody. Shoost have de poys keep cool."
It was long after nightfall when we dismounted at the door of a native Christian preacher's house at Deir Mimas. But the struggles of the day were not ended. The Kurd stalked in, and, saying that here his duties ended, demanded a sum at least a third greater than that agreed upon.
III. Columns with Hathor-head Capitals. We find examples of the Hathor- headed column dating from ancient times, as at Deir el Baharî; but this order is best known in buildings of the Ptolemaic period, as at Contra Latopolis, Philae, and Denderah. The shaft and the base present no special characteristics. They resemble those of the campaniform columns. The capital is in two divisions.
The Lewis-gunners caught them as they were getting away and effectually quenched all desire to renew the counter-attack. Then the company pushed forward, and, ignoring the village of Deir Ballut, with its machine guns tried to get across the line of retreat from the village.
Oh, people lose deir way dere so bad, sometimes dey nevare return no more. People that's lost in de wood dey come back if dey live, but them that's lost at sea nevare. Oh, I was damn scared. Oh, mon Dieu! what is 44° 40' north and 63° 40' west? Is dat de conetry were people who are lost at sea go to? Boys, is there any rum on board? and they said there was a bottle for the old lady's rheumatis.
She was quite alone. "No time so dark but through its woof there run Some blessed threads of gold." It is difficult no, it is impossible to describe the wonder of Deir el-Bahari under the moon, just as it is impossible to describe "the light that never was, on land or sea," or the Taj Mahal, or a mother's love. To our eyes it is the picture of desolation.
"You're a big fool, boy," observed his father after Mis' Molly had gone back across the street, "ter be stickin' roun' dem yaller niggers 'cross de street, an' slobb'rin' an' slav'rin' over 'em, an' hangin' roun' deir back do' wuss 'n ef dey wuz w'ite folks. I'd see 'em dead fus'!"
Mary gave a little exclamation at hearing this, and she almost laughed. After a short pause she blushed brightly, and turned to me as she said "And my father and I have supposed you, the one a pedlar, and the other a street-musician!" "But bedlars and moosic-grinders of goot etications, as might be panishet for deir bolitics."
Damaris smiled spasmodically when, as she put the letter down under the jasmine, her neighbours let off a broadside. The head dragoman wanted to get up a party for Deir el-Bahari on the morrow. He had twenty pairs of donkeys, all of which were so accustomed, it seemed, to going about in a bunch that they refused to move a step if one pair was missing.
Proceeding some distance, he hid his fish and line and made his way up the river, escaping the Shawnees by means of a long détour. Reaching the stream and tree, he was somewhat taken aback by not finding any one at all. Considerably perplexed, he looked about him. "Can't be dat Quanonshet and Madokawandock have been fooling deir poor old fader again," said he.
