She made no attempt to pass her antagonist, but headed up the estuary. The captain rubbed his hands. "She's making for shoal water, Mr. Wharton, and we shall have to cut her out, sir. She's a footy little brig, but I should have thought a fore-and-after would have been more handy." "It was a mutiny, sir." "Ah, indeed!" "Yes, sir, I heard of it at Manilla: a bad business, sir.
On the page that contained my sketches of the Sidcup arm, showing the distribution of the snails' eggs on the bones, he lingered with a faint smile that made me turn hot and red. "Those sketches look rather footy," I said; "but I had to put something in my notebook." "You did not attach any importance, then, to the facts that they illustrated?" "No. The egg-patches were there, so I noted the fact.
"I don't want no more stone-ballast hove at us 'long o' your callin' Miquelon boats 'footy cochins, same's you did off Le Have." "Harmon Rush he said that was the way to rise 'em. Plain United States is good enough fer me. We're all dretful short on terbakker. Young feller, don't you speak French?" "Oh, yes," said Harvey valiantly; and he bawled: "Hi! Say! Arretez vous! Attendez!
"There," he said, as he washed the clay from his hands, "I think them chickens are safe for to-night from the dogs, and probably from the men. Think of all that trouble for four footy chickens not worth more'n four bits in Injianny. They're as much bother as a drove o' steer'd be. I think I kin now lay down and take a wink o' sleep."
The other men began to run, but Carnehan and Dravot sits on the boxes picking them off at all ranges, up and down the valley. Then we goes up to the ten men that had run across the snow too, and they fires a footy little arrow at us. Dravot he shoots above their heads and they all falls down flat.

"So much for thicky!" exclaimed Bascomb, relapsing into broad Devon for a moment, under the influence of excitement. "If it weren't that we have a long and hot morning's work before us I would anchor the ship, land a party, and blow their footy batteries into the air. But perhaps we may have time to do that when we come back this way.
Jackson's second advantage was his own and his army's knowledge of the country for which they naturally fought with a loving zeal which no invaders could equal. The third advantage was in having Turner Ashby's cavalry. These were horsemen born and bred, who could make their way across country as easily as the "footy" Federals could along the road.
It isn't all marbles and play in the gladsome springtide. Bub has not only to spade up the garden there is some sense in that but he has to dig up the flower beds, and help his mother set out her footy, trifling plants. The robins have come back, our robins that nest each spring in the old seek-no-further. To the boy grunting over the spading-fork presents himself Cock Robin. "How about it? Hey?
"My eye, Captain, no use to dodge from her; it is only dat footy little King's cutter on de Jamaica station."
