There's a fruit steamer out of here for N'Orleans in the mawnin'. Reckon I'll catch it." "I'd advise you to." "No objection to me droppin' around to see the girl first? Entitled to a little natural curiosity. Come, I'll take you up home this evenin'. The girl. No harm." "You're not serious, Morton. You wouldn't upset things. You wouldn't tell that child!"
"It's Kate Simpson!" exclaimed Cora, "and she seems to be looking for our camp!" "Miss!" called the woman, her voice shaking. "Wait, wait for poor Kate! Oh! I'm droppin' down!" "What is it, Kate?" asked Cora kindly. "You seem exhausted." "Oh, indeed I am that," replied the woman, brushing the straggling hair from her forehead. "I am all but dead!" "What has happened?" asked Cora further.
I recalled the time when I, too, had enjoyed the rack on which he voluntarily extended himself. And the County of Sussex slid by in slow time. "How cautious is the 'tiffy-bird!" said Pyecroft. "Even in a destroyer," Hinch snapped over his shoulder, "you ain't expected to con and drive simultaneous. Don't address any remarks to me!" "Pump!" said the engineer. "Your water's droppin'." "I know that.
"Why, how do, Eli? What's up?" Indian Jake greeted. "What's bringin' you to the Nascaupee?" "You!" Eli's face was hard with hate. "'Tis you brings me here, you thief!

"What you meanin' by that?"

The watch have coiled theirselves away somewheres, and I don't doubt but what they're snatchin' a cat-nap and I haven't troubled to disturb 'em, sir, for the lookout on the fo'c's'le is keepin' his eyes skinned.
Last fall, a year gone, 'twas Sitka Charley and meself saw the sight, droppin' down the riffle ye'll remember below Fort Reliance. An' regular fall weather it was the glint o' the sun on the golden larch an' the quakin' aspens; an' the glister of light on ivery ripple; an' beyand, the winter an' the blue haze of the North comin' down hand in hand.
It was sort of weird, take it from me, moseyin' off that way at night into a tangle of islands without any signs up to tell you which way you was goin', or anybody in sight to ask directions of. The moon was still doin' business, but it was droppin' lower every minute.
'Look the' there! droppin' and drippin' along t' flags as was cleaned last night, and meddlin' wi' woman's work as a man has no business wi'. Philip was surprised and annoyed. He had found relief from his own thoughts in doing what he believed would help others. He gave up the kettle to her snatching hands, and sate down behind the door in momentary ill-temper.

From all I heerd, thar must a bin nigh onto three thousan' o' the varmints, droppin' on 'em all at oncet, hell-bent-fer-election, with ol' Roman Nose a leadin' 'em.
