Hamilton got by me, and I saw him set a foot on the shoulder of a man, and jump on to the top of the redoubt. Why more or all were not killed seems to me a wonder. I think if the enemy had been cooler we had been easily disposed of. I saw the girl-boy leap down among the bayonets, and we were at once in a hurly-burly of redcoats, our men with and after us.
Bob and Ned arrived, tackle over shoulder, intent upon playing hookey at afternoon session, and disgusted that Monty was so little excited by their grimacing pantomime, as they demonstrated how they would escape to the woods and invited his company. Then they tried ridicule, calling "girl-boy, girl-boy," as loudly as they dared, with Katharine's scornful glances upon them.
I'd be ashamed not to. I can" but he stopped a minute and blushed "I can wash dishes, and make good pancakes, too. Now if you want to make fun, why, make fun. I don't care." But he did care, else why should his voice choke in that way? "Oh, girl-boy; a pretty girl-boy you are " but here Will Riley stopped and stammered.
A fellow who brushed his hair, and put on shoes, and came into the parlor when there was company, was not well seen among the fellows; he was regarded in some degree as a girl-boy; a boy who wished to stand well with other boys kept in the wood-shed, and only went in as far as the kitchen to get things for his guests in the back-yard.

So when Frank and Fanny went along out of school, as usual, the little children, amused by the slips of paper, ran after them, some calling, 'boy-girl, and others, 'girl-boy, Frank did not know what all this meant; but he kept on without looking back. "Look behind you," cried Harry Day, as he ran up to Fanny.
Once she ran squirrel-like out on the bole of a great tree leaning to its fall over the cliff, hung her piggin on a broken limb, and told him he must go after it. Next it was a squeeze through some "fat-man's-misery" crevice in the water-worn sandstone, with a cry to him to come on if he were not a girl-boy.
"Where's your manners?" "I mean yes, sir." "How often? If it hain't be'n too many times mebbe I'll let ye off, though you're a reg'lar girl-boy, and'll be runnin' away from the cat bimeby. Has it be'n twice?" "Yes," and the Little Prophet's voice was very faint now, and had a decided tear in it. "Yes what?" "Yes, sir." "Has it be'n four times?" "Y-es, sir." More heaving of the gingham shirt.
McLane, saved your life when he was mean enough, just in the middle of that beautiful ball, to set fire to something. At first we took it for the fireworks. But tell me about Miss Gainor's girl-boy our own dear Jack." "He can still blush to beat Miss Franks, and he still believes me to be a great man, and but you do not want to hear about battles." "Do I not, indeed! I should like to see Mr.
