He tugged at the string of the second packet of ammunition. Corporal Slane crawled out of the shadow of a bank into the moonlight. "I see you!" said Simmons. "Come a bit furder on an' I'll do for you." "I'm comm'," said Corporal Slane, briefly; "you've done a bad day's work, Sim. Come out 'ere an' come back with me." "Come to," laugbed Simmons, sending a cartridge home with his thumb.
You can walk all over Venice if you want to take the time to go furder round and cross the bridges and walk through narrer, crooked little streets, some on 'em not more'n five or six feet wide, but the easiest and quickest way is to take a boat, as well as the most agreeable. Venice is built on seventy-two islands besides the Grand Canal which takes the place of our avenues and streets.
Lord knows, I gev her worry enough while she was alive, without follerin' her up any furder." I have taken some trouble in weeding the language of Jack's confession, so as not to destroy its consecutiveness. And, co-existing in the worthy fellow's mind with this childlike simplicity, was a really fine store of the best kind of knowledge, namely, that acquired from observation and experience.
Heave off, put all steam on, and back out, starn fust, and then swing round into the stream. That's the ticket, Sam. It's done; but my elbow has took that lady that's two steps furder down on the stairs, jist in the eye, and knocked in her dead light. How she cries! how I apologize, don't I?

"'Most nigh the place," came the prompt reply. "This here's the burnin' where the charcoal was made last year. On'y a little furder, an' we'll be up to dad. And oh! I hopes he's alive yet, I shore does!" Frank of course comforted him the best he could.
Golly it would make the Wiggleses eyes stick out furder than ever. They're a jealous lot at the best o' times, and its sich a silly idear for Melindy to be a-naggin' at me for goin' there when I never go nearer than the rickety old gate." Mr. Spriggins was evidently taking on a few airs for he seemed quite exasperated and ready to battle against such aspersions.
Ez I was a-saying last night, this here is Tuckasege country, and we ain't no furder than a day's running from the Cowee Towns. Now the Tuckaseges and the over-mounting Cherokees ain't always on the best o' tarms, and I was a wondering if the hoss-captain hadn't sot down here to wait whilst he could send a peace-offer' o' powder and lead on to the Cowee chiefs to sort o' smooth the way."
"Why looky-here," he says, "ain't that Buck Miller's place, over yander in the bend." "Yes," says I, "it is why." He laid his pipe down and leant his head on his hand, and says "I thought we'd be furder down." I says
Then he made a calm announcement: "There's two of 'em little ones but they 're beginnin' t' have fun with me now. I don't b'lieve I kin walk much furder." They went slowly on in silence. "Yeh look pretty peek-ed yerself," said the tattered man at last. "I bet yeh 've got a worser one than yeh think. Ye'd better take keer of yer hurt. It don't do t' let sech things go.
Just at this point a dark form glided up behind the detective and dealt him a stunning blow on the head, felling him to the ground. "Thar, pardner, I reckon that beak won't git no furder with his pris'ner." Bordine was dumbfounded.
