"A prize to His Britannic Majesty's brig of war Opossum," answered Waller. "What are you?"
"It may be difficult, though, to dig a grave in this thin coating of sand, with a hard rock below it. But hillo! What is here? See, Tommy; I have found this key fastened with a rope-yarn round his neck. I should not be surprised but what it's the key of the chest."

"'Going to make a scarecrow to keep the ravens off old Teufel's pictures, answered Heinrich, as he went on dressing the lay-figure in Karl's clothes.
There was a light breeze which just rippled some of the deep pools in the stream, and as he walked up it, passing his companions one after the other, he seldom passed ten minutes without getting a rise and catching a fish.

"Hillo!" exclaimed Dick, who was the first to find his voice after the first moment of surprise had passed. "What on earth does that mean?"
