So they send out a bunch of little ships on they own, just to ... uh ... cripple our ships. It don't matter, they little ships get hit, because they no one in them, see you. They trying to get our ships in good shape, and people in them and stuff, that's all." "Yes, yes," The Guesser had said impatiently, "but what's that to do with us?"
"Well," he said, "you seem to have raised a devil of a row out West, and if you can offer any explanation at all for such conduct I'm prepared to listen to it before we go any further. If you think that's the kind of advertising a reputable firm wants you're about as poor a guesser as ever traveled on a mileage book." "Why why what's up?" blurted Jimmy. "What's up?
Ever since the British landed she has such faith in the British she has believed in a short war. Of course I don't know any more than she does. I have to guess, and I'm not a lucky guesser as a rule. I confess to you that even I am absolutely obsessed by the miracle which has turned the invaders back from the walls of Paris. I cannot get over the wonder of it.
I stared blankly at the fellow, a thousand questions in my mind, and a dim perception of what he meant permeating my brain. "Do you mean," I asked, horrified, "that he will compel her to marry him?" "Sum smart little guesser, ain't yer? I reckon she's in a right smart way ter do it, et thet." "And wus this the cause of the quarrel between Kirby and Kennedy?"
"You could not have chosen a better example of those half-truths you complain of," said he. "I admit that my uncle is Sir Henry Royson, but his heir he vowed I should not be when last we met. Yet the letter you speak of was from his solicitor, and it held out a vague suggestion of possibilities which, to put it mildly, would make Mrs. Haxton a remarkably good guesser."

Is his wife going to make a feast to welcome him?" "I will not deny that you have proved a good guesser. And, by Dunstan! he deserves to be received well. Never saw I such a sight as that landing!
Lacey eyed him meditatively, and said reflectively: "Say, you're an artist, pasha. You are a guesser of the first rank. But I'd guess again. Higli Pasha would have done it, if it had ever occurred to him; and he'd had the pluck. But it didn't, and he hadn't. What I can't understand is that the artist that did it should have done it before Claridge Pasha left for the Soudan.

"And then, from the asteroid," I suggested, "we are going " "To the Moon, Haljan. What a clever guesser you are! Coniston and Hahn are calculating our course. But I have no great confidence in them. And so I want you." "You have me." "Yes. I have you.
He would swear to nothing that he had not touched; eyes deceived; he was never a guesser. He left Mrs.
"You're a good guesser," laughed Nils giving the lad's hand a swing. To himself he was thinking: "That's why the little girl looked so friendly. He's taught her to like me. He was only six when I went away, and he's remembered for twelve years." Eric stood fumbling with his cap and smiling. "You look just like I thought you would," he ventured.
