A glance at his captors taught him that these were safari men and not savages of the country; and, with full knowledge of the general situation, he was not long in guessing out his present plight. But now was not the time for talk. A half-hour's walk took the party to a second water-hole, the indications for which Simba had already noted on his little scouting tour.
A half-hour's walk round would convince you, sir; I only wish that you could persuade his lordship to accompany you." "Scoutbush? Of course he will, he shall, he must. Good heavens! whose concern is it more than his? You think, then, that there is a chance of staving it off by cleansing, I mean?" "If we have heavy rains during the next week or two, yes.
I must confess that I believe in what is so often jeered at as "kindred souls." Love is not measured by time; often we are truer friends through some half-hour's talk, in which we saw another's real self, than through years of ordinary meeting.
As I say, I was a good deal that way myself, though a half-hour's steady raving was enough for me. But poor old Jim! She isn't one little bit crazy about him, either unfortunately." "Unfortunately!" thought Frederica. This was rather illuminating. The Randolphs' love-match had been regarded as establishing a sort of standard of excellence.
It was almost eight before she got through; and she ran upstairs for her bonnet and shawl, and started for her customary half-hour's walk before breakfast. She took the road leading to the village, still and deserted, and came back all glowing from the rapid exercise. Captain Danton stood on the front steps smoking a meerschaum pipe, as she came up the avenue.
I propose to devote myself during the first hour to the scope of what was brought within the range of his half-hour speech at Ottawa. Of course, there was brought within the scope of that half-hour's speech something of his own opening speech. In the course of that opening argument Judge Douglas proposed to me seven distinct interrogatories.
In order to secure the reproduction of the higher audio frequencies, it was found necessary to run the tape at a rate of 90 metres per minute past the recording and reproducing heads. This meant that the length of tape required for a half-hour's programme was nearly 3 kilometres! Brief description of the ribbon or velocity microphone.
But the masses of foliage were as yet too thick for them to see much but the autumnal red and yellow spread out below them. "I hear them; I do not see them," remarked their guide. "Two horses are approaching." "How far are we now from the Lodge?" "A half-hour's ride. We are just at the opening of the gully." "You will join us soon?" "As quickly as I make out who are on the horses behind us."
The door of the ranger's cabin stood open, but all was silent. "He is snatching a half-hour's sleep," she decided. If the guard had carried in his mind the faintest intention of permitting Lize to go to Cavanagh's aid, that intention came to no issue, for with the coming of the third night Wetherford was unconscious and unrecognizable to any one who had known him in the days of "the free range."
The first half-hour's run was a very anxious one for us; but as we began to lose sight of the lights of the town and to draw away from the land, we knew that the enemy had been caught in his own trap, and that we had successfully eluded him. I had warned the French authorities that their neutrality would be disregarded, and that these signals would be made.
