Still, I think the end's in sight "
The aide-de-camp saluted, and a minute later the giant car spurned the gravel out from under its rear wheels as it started off to warn another regiment. "So we've got our route!" said Kirby. "And, thank God, we take our own horses!" said Brammle fervently. "Bet you a thousand the other end's Marseilles!" said Warrington. "We're in luck.
"Mustn't have that window left open though," said Tom; and, going to the side, he reached over the bench with the blanket spread over it, drew in the iron-framed lattice window, and fastened it, and was drawing back, when the blanket, which had been hanging draped over a good deal at one end, yielded to that end's weight, and glided off, to fall in a heap upon the stones.
People that will not take advice must bide the consequences. Are you going to stay up for Dr. Mackenzie, Jean?" "Of course," she said. "Well then, I might as well get off to my bed.
