And what did you der ditter find there, my foxy young friend?" "Nothing that I was looking for." "Der what was that?" "The meeting." "Der what meeting?" "The one I'd like to go to, may be." "You are a bright pup; but der don't spit this way; it might be der ditter dangerous business to me; for you must have been eating razors to-night." "No, I haven't; don't love 'em.

Though Harry, in his despair, would for a while believe nothing but that she was der dead, or worse, yet, as I and others, putting all things together, hoped and reasoned ditter different, in part, and thought she might not have been killed there, but retaken; and, for fear of pursuit, hurried off directly to the British, he concluded to despatch Bart to his friend Allen, of the Council, to take advice, and then proceed in some disguise or other, right into the lion's den ascertain whether the girl was there and, after ditter learning what he could about the enemy's movements, return with the news."

We shall have the pleasure of seeing him in a few minutes, probably, as Coffin told me he passed along here night before last, on the way to Number Four, to come on with Stark. That may be told without ditter mischief." "And so may another thing, perhaps, which I should like to know, Dunning." "Der what is that, Bill?"

"Der here is something that ditter tells a rather loud story about that; at least, as to the matter of intentions," said the hunter, by way of reply, taking a crumpled paper from his cap and handing it to the other. How considerable a portion of the whole intended force penetrated into the interior is not ascertained.

I suppose your never-failing spear will be put in requisition again, when the spring opens; will it not?" "Der yes, your worship, unless I turn my attention to the catching ditter eels, or other slippery varments," returned the hunter, with a sly, significant twinkling of his eyes, as he brushed by the rebuked cajoler, and pushed on without waiting for a reply.

"Ditter ready, boys?" now cried Dunning, firmly grasping Bart's legs, and glancing over his shoulders to his lusty little band of backers.

"Ditter look here, my little chap," said Dunning, getting impatient and vexed that he could not decide whether the other was a knave, simpleton, or neither "ditter look here; der don't your folks want you?" Hadn't you better run along now?" "Reckon I shall, when you tell me where to go and not run against snags."

"Outwitted, by ditter Judas!" exclaimed the hunter, in his vexation.

We must save what we have got; so into the canoe there with ye, gal; and you, Bart, take her across, der find Harry, whom I'd ditter rather you would meet first, and tell him you have left me this side to go in search of the other, who, if found, can most likely be got to the road as well the way she set out as this, in the shape things now stand."

"Yes, I am one of them, and mean to have a hand in stirring up Burgoyne, when we reach him, I assure you." "That's right, commissary!" exclaimed Dunning.
