Now, seeing that it was morning, he first gave a nervous glance at the clock, then hurriedly dug into a pocket, fetched out his jack-knife, opened a blade, and cut the ropes holding Cis; next, and quickly, he severed those tighter strands which bound the boy. Another bang, followed by an imperious rattling of the doorknob. Then, "Tom Barber, are ye in?
I haven't seen a winter yet when there weren't deer in Doorknob Valley." They pressed on, over one of the hills, and then towards the cliffs and rough rocks. Soon Jed held up his hand. "Have you spotted any?" whispered Shep, eagerly. The old hunter nodded, and then pointed to the edge of one of the cliffs.
He's had what you might call an extra-long childhood that's why he's got that misty look in his eyes." "That fool look," scoffed Hugh Manners. "You think so? I tell you, Manners, he's just waking up, and when he's clear waked up he'll be a world-beater! You saw that doorknob?" "Smashed? Yep. What of it?"
"You won't have much household to be master of presently," said Mrs. Peters provokingly. "Half of it's going to leave." Mr. Bell came out of his towel and looked from one to the other for some explanation of this attempted joke, "What nonsense are you talking?" he demanded. "I think it's nonsense myself," said the pretty young woman her hand on the doorknob.
I will neither be insulted nor patronized." "Listen to him, will you!" James turned and with the supreme gesture of contempt, he left the door open. He wound his way through the place to Judge Carter's study and home office, strode towards it with purpose and reached for the doorknob. A voice halted him: "Hey kid, you can't go in there!"

By the window sat the sick woman, perfectly still, listless.
Before this Anna had shared his proprietorship with him. Now the little household was his. His vicarious domesticity pleased him. He strutted about, taking a new view of his domain; he tightened a doorknob and fastened a noisy window. He inspected the coal-supply and grumbled over its quality.
And then she took her hand from the ring, and held her finger out for her mother's eyes, and her mother kissed it. They were silent a moment; then the girl rose and stood with her hand on the doorknob and cried: "I think it is the prettiest ring in all the world, and I never want any other." Then she thought of mother, and flushed and ran away. And we should not follow her.
The old hunter had seen some deer at a place called Doorknob Valley, a hollow to the southwest of Firefly Lake, and led them in that direction. The trail was by no means an even one, and often they had to force their way through bushes half buried in the snow.
He took a quick step, and reached out his hand for the doorknob. Father Rogan was quicker to arrest it and draw him back. "You use my trust in you queerly," said the priest sternly. "What are you about to do?" "I am going to my wife," said Lorison. "Let me pass." "Listen," said the priest, holding him firmly by the arm.
