We made a short halt while the tea was boiling, then we all separated for fear a black tracker might have been loosed on our trail, and knowing well what bloodhounds they are sometimes. Warrigal and Starlight went off together as usual; they were pretty safe to be out of harm's way. Father made off on a line of his own.
"He wants you to make good use of these to mark down every day the course the ship has run, her position at noon. He does not require you to fight; indeed, if we meet an enemy, he will allow you to go below and keep out of harm's way if you wish it." "Under those circumstances I do not think we should wisely refuse to obey him," observed Stephen. "I would rather not have to do it," said Roger.
We generally stand upright to our work, equally poised on the two feet for advance or retreat; while you lean with the body far forward and the arm outstretched, which seems to me to cripple the movements." "Yes, but it puts the body out of harm's way," Francois said.
She came, but not at the jerk of a wire; she arrived a week later, with a face of great propriety and a smile of great unconcern. Harris, having got her effectually out of harm's way, shirked further insistence, and I have reason to believe that Armour was never even mentioned between them.
"And the men are imbued with the same spirit," declared Frank, "and yet see how cool they are." It was perfectly true. There was no confusion aboard the Essex in spite of the fact that each member of the crew knew he was bent on a dangerous mission. One shot from the submarine, they knew, if truly aimed and Jack was unable to maneuver the vessel out of harm's way, would be the end.
Our method of forwarding supplies was to assemble the wagon trains near my lower camp during the day, and push them forward to Gauley Mount and Tompkins farm during the night. The ferry-boat at Gauley Bridge was kept out of harm's way in the Gauley, behind the projection of Gauley Mount, but the hawser on which it ran was not removed.
When the rabbit runs his head through the noose, he pulls the slip-knot and is quickly carried up by the spring of the young tree. This is a good plan, for the rabbit is out of harm's way as he swings high in the air. Perhaps the most enjoyable of all was the chipmunk hunt. We killed these animals at any time of year, but the special time to hunt them was in March.
"Well an' good: no, divil a harm's in it; well an' good: to make a long story short, they grabbed me in a house up in the mountains not unlike Finnerty's, I think that's his name where I was on my keepin'; so what 'ud you have of it, but we were comin' acrass the hills, jist as it might be said we are now only there's none of us a prisoner, thank goodness hem!
Annersley knew that the anonymous letter would be followed by some hostile act if he did not vacate the homestead. He wasted no time worrying as to what might happen but he did worry about Young Pete. If the cattlemen raided his place, it would be impossible to keep that young and ambitious fire-eater out of harm's way.
She stood, a statue of angry patience waiting for him to go. He slowly buttoned on his coat, and then stepped coolly across the room to look at an enlarged photograph of a young soldier standing on the piano. "Handsome chap! You're in luck, Marianne. I suppose you managed to get him into a staff job of some sort, out of harm's way?" He turned to her with a sneer on his lips.
