"Them quiet fellows generally are," put in Mr. Birken. "You run stock in here too, do you, Miss MacDonald?" "The big Ds," answered Billy Louise and smiled faintly. "I've been range-herding them back here in these foothills this summer. Do you want to look through the bunch?" Mr. Birkin blushed. "Oh, no, not at all! I was wondering if you had lost any."
A mountebank in Leicester Fields had drawn a huge assembly about him. Among the rest, a fat unwieldy fellow, half stifled in the press, would be every fit crying out, "Lord! what a filthy crowd is here. Pray, good people, give way a little. Bless need what a devil has raked this rabble together. Z ds, what squeezing is this? Honest friend, remove your elbow."
In my presence they were always well treated, and I have seen many khaki prisoners who have never on any occasion been ill-treated. From Onuapadnek our lagers went to the farm Rietfontein, near Witwatersrandjes, where we celebrated Paardekraal Day on December 16 under sad circumstances, alas! Ds.
In the case supposed the order would be as follows: "DS Despatcher's Office, 12, 8, '98 "Orders No. 31. To C. & E. 1st and 2nd 13, SM. To C. & E. No. 14, JN. First and second sections No. 13, and No. 14 will meet at Burkes.
"Z ds!", cried one of the servants, "sure my lord's Sorrel is not resty!" Meanwhile one of the three who remained at my desire, turning the body of Strap, in order to see the wound which had killed him, found him still warm and breathing: upon which, I immediately let him blood, and saw him, with inexpressible joy, recover; he having received no other wound than what his fear had inflicted.
"DS" glances over his train sheet, and finds that he cannot let them run to Smithville, because No. 13 is nearly on time; but there is a siding at Burkes, between Jason and Smithville, and he concludes to let 14 go there. So he tells the operator at Jason to "copy 3," and then he calls Smithville and tells him to "copy 5."
Finally, he said to me, "You call 'DU. Maybe the wire is heavy and she can't adjust for me." I called steadily for five minutes, but still no reply. I was beginning to get scared. All sorts of ideas came into my head robbers, tramps, fire and murder. "DS" said, "I'm afraid something has happened to the flyer.
Others who knew nothing of musical expression, and merely lent their ears to the plain import of the word, imagined that Phutatorius, who was somewhat of a cholerick spirit, was just going to snatch the cudgels out of Didius's hands, in order to bemaul Yorick to some purpose and that the desperate monosyllable Z...ds was the exordium to an oration, which, as they judged from the sample, presaged but a rough kind of handling of him; so that my uncle Toby's good-nature felt a pang for what Yorick was about to undergo.
And thus one knows the elevation of the point at the bottom I by the refraction of this section; and it appears that this elevation is greater than that by the refraction of the preceding section, since the ratio of PD to DS was there as 99,324 to 70,283.
After that I gave "DS" good night, and was free until seven the next morning. The east bound flyer passed Dunraven at eight-fifteen in the evening and then. Mary was through for the night. The town was a mile away from the depot and the poor girl had to trudge all that distance alone. But she was as plucky as they make them and was never molested.
