There was much waving of hats as the wagon, a roomy, four-wheeled vehicle, moved off, with a creaking in its joints as if it were squealing a protest against its load, which consisted of the five lads, together with knapsacks, guns, tents, and the camp duffle. "Forward, all!" shouted Dr.

As I am usually credited with making a cruise or a long woods tramp with exceptionally light duffle, I will give a list of the articles I take along going on foot over carries or through the woods. THE clothing, blanket-bag and shelter-cloth are all that need be described in that line.

"Turn quick, or I'll fire," she said. He felt that, if such action were in her power, she told the truth. No mercy dwelt in her clear gaze. His eye fell to the box of cartridges, now fallen safely among the duffle. Presently he smiled into her eyes. "Your gun is empty, Beatrice," he told her quietly. He heard her sob, and he smiled a little, reassuringly.

'It's the gray you want, is it not, Sylvie? He used the name he had had the cousin's right to call her by since her childhood, without remembering her words on the subject not five minutes before; but she did, and was vexed. 'Please, miss, it is the scarlet duffle I want; don't let him take it away.

Then he closed his desk and went home where, a few minutes later, his daughter found him packing his outfit in a well worn duffle bag. Ever since Jean's outburst of passion upon the day of Hedin's arrest, a certain constraint had settled upon father and daughter that amounted, at times, to an actual coldness.

Very spruce and self-satisfied she appeared, and the market-people turned to stare after her, for her costume was a novelty then. Doubtless, many thought as I did, how much prettier was scarlet than duffle grey. Behind the farmer's cart came another, which at first I scarcely noticed, being engrossed by the ruddy face under the red cloak. The farmer himself nodded good-humouredly, but Mrs.

With this summer's savings I have bought a quilted petticoat for you and a duffle cloak for myself against the winter, and if I get the work I am going after to-day, I shall buy enough wool to knit warm stockings for us both. So be patient till I return, and then we will have the plumcake that is in the cupboard for tea." "Thank you, Mother." "Good-bye, my child.

Let's get our stuff ready to ride." Less than two hours later their rooms were vacant, their duffle was stowed in the long dugout, the Peruvian crew stood arrogantly eying the Brazilians who had gathered to witness the departure, and the Americans were bidding good-by to Remate de Males in general and its German resident in particular. "Mr.

"Why, of I don't know!" Terabon saw a new outlook on the question. "Did they go down?" "Yes, sir, I heard so. I don't care about my boat, typewriter, and duffle; what bothers me is my notebooks. Months of work are in them. If I could get them back!" "What can I do for you?" "I don't know I'm going down stream; it's down below, somewhere." "I need someone to help me," Rasba said.

"No," answered Snake slowly, "but it strikes me this is a good place to get rid of the saddles and truck we took offen Del Pinzo. No use carting the duffle along. It's no good to us and it only tires our pack mules. Heave it down this gully, boys and we'll ride lighter." This was soon done, and the baggage animals, at least, went forward with easier burdens.
