Varney burst out laughing. "You yourself have known Hare from the cradle, I believe?" "I'm different," said Peter without a smile. "Well! I must move. Now let's see that lunch. What time shall I ask Hare and Mrs.

"In with him, sor? Fr-rum th' way they stick around him ye'd think he was a long-lost rilitive come back wid a million pounds." "I'm glad you fellows are with me, Mike. I was just looking for a gun, but if you'll stand by me " "Oh, don't pull a pistol, Misther Madden. A man who would pull a gun in a free-for-all why he would smash th' fiddles at a dance."

Some of the onlookers nodded and murmured assent. The half circle that had been attracted by the dispute broke up. Nobody had tried to interfere, even when the knife had been drawn. Charley soon found that similar contests for sleeping places were occurring everywhere aboard. It was a grand free-for-all rush. Mr.

It was a go-as-you-please, free-for-all struggle, and anybody who could get to Washington and say he represented an important business interest could be heard by the Committee on Ways and Means. We have a very different state of affairs now.

Neither Hollis or Norton had been allowed to participate in the final scene, the little captain informing them curtly that the presence of civilians at what promised to be a free-for-all fight was strictly forbidden.
