NOT VOTING Messrs. Ancona, Delos R. Ashley, Culver, Driggs, Dumont, Glossbrenner, Goodyear, Henderson, Higby, Jones, Loan, McRuer, Newell, Radford, Trowbridge, and Winfield 16. Two-thirds having voted in the affirmative, the Speaker declared the joint resolution adopted. The strong vote by which this measure was passed, after so general an expression of dissent from it, excited some surprise.
"As soon as we pick up a couple of them, Dick and I can take the canoe and get the rest," Dave suggested. "You cannot, while the young ladies are with us," Hiram Driggs contradicted. "Do you want to scare them to death by having another upset?" Laura shot a grateful glance at kindly Hiram Driggs. The scow moved forward, cruising among the paddles until all of them had been recovered. "Now, Mr.
All his force, all his will appeared to have departed. He moved along, now, like a puppet. Down at the water-front a naval launch was in waiting. In this the entire party was taken out to the "Thor." Captain Driggs received the callers on the platform deck, and Admiral Townsley stated the object of the visit.
Then we can sharpen our knives right on the spot and cut bark faster." "You can have the grindstone," Driggs assented. "And I'll do better than that. I can spare half a dozen knives from the shop that are better than anything you carry in your pockets. Oh, we'll rush this business along fast." Six utterly happy high school boys reported at Hiram Driggs' stable at six o'clock the next morning.
An orderly stepped briskly out on the veranda. "Sergeant Overton is directed to report immediately to Lieutenant Prescott at the latter's quarters." "I'll be there before the words are out of your mouth, Driggs," laughed Hal, rising and starting. "Hold on, Sarge," called Private Kelly. "Look at the sheets of dew coming down, and you haven't your poncho. Here, put mine on."
Allison, Ames, Anderson, Arnell, Delos R. Ashley, James M. Ashley, Bailey, Baker, Baldwin, Banks, Beaman, Beatty, Benton, Bingham, Blaine, Blair, Boutwell, Bromwell, Broomall. Buckland, Butler, Cake, Churchill, Reader W. Clarke, Sidney Clarke, Cobb, Coburn, Cook, Cornell, Covode, Cullom, Dawes, Dodge, Driggs, Eckley, Eggleston, Eliot, Farnsworth, Ferries.
The rest of the time she spent on her knees beside the girl in the chair crooning softly. And she never knew that most of the words she set to her soothing, extemporaneous tune would have contaminated anybody, most of all Mrs. Schuyler Driggs herself. At eleven-thirty, when Cecille was crying comfortably, she rose. And seeing that her work was well done, she became brisk.
Driggs' keen eyes noted the fact, and thereafter he was careful not to mention drowned people in her hearing. The tackle was soon rigged. Tom Reade and Harry Hazelton, who possessed the keenest interest in things mechanical, aided the boat builder under his direction. Back and forth over the spot the scow moved, while the grapples were frequently shifted and recast.
If the other side got hold of her and primed her what to say, she could do us a lot of harm here, for mind you, she's got a way with her. We don't want any trouble. There's a little talk of runnin' Doc. Clay, but I believe he's got more sense than to try it. The last man that ran against me lost his deposit. But, understand, Driggs, no mention of this girl, cut out her name." Then Mr.
Now, I know that you boys, owning a canoe that will soon be in the water, won't be anxious to give up your whole summer to doing jobs for me. But couldn't you bring in a lot more bark if you had a team of horses and a good-sized wagon?" "Of course we could," Dick nodded. "But we haven't any horses or a wagon."
