Michael threw himself down on the ground at her feet. "While I was sitting here, and, as I thought, wide awake, thinking over our walk in the Sahara and about your story and enjoying the moon and the stars, quite suddenly a figure appeared. I was awfully startled, and yet not frightened." "What sort of a figure? One of the house-boys pretending to be a spook?" "No, no house-boy.
Give me time," he pleaded. "Mars' Ross Mars' Ross! Head 'em off!" sounded a yell, and Babe, the house-boy, came around the porch in pursuit of two half-grown chickens. "Help him, Rossie," prompted Aunt Missouri, sharply. "You boys can stay to supper and have some of the chicken if you help catch them."
Did you catch that big squall an hour after you left us? We had to let go the second anchor." While he was being introduced to Deacon, McMurtrey dispatched a house-boy with the pants, and when Captain Donovan came in it was as a white man should at least in Goboto. Deacon lost the second game, and an outburst heralded the fact. Peter Gee devoted himself to lighting a cigarette and keeping quiet.
"I think our house-boy knew how to keep a house beautiful, mother, before he came to our country," said Lucy one day. "Well, perhaps he was a wang," said her mother, "and did live in a palace!" "Doesn't Mr. Consul Bradley know about him, mother?" "Consul Bradley says Sky-High's father is a good man, and that Sky-High is a good boy with a bright mind.
He has heard of you; he wishes to honor you as a noble American and the friend of his people." Mr. Van Buren wondered if his wife's little house-boy had gone insane. He spoke with impatience. "Let us not be fooling ourselves with this business any longer!" "I have never deceived you, master," said the little serving-man. "I am as the great George Washington in his youth.
Captain Oleson swore blasphemously, and sent a house-boy to bring whisky and soda. Sheldon glanced at the thermometer. "One hundred and seven," he said. "Poor Hughie." Captain Oleson offered him some whisky. "Couldn't think of it perforation, you know," Sheldon said. He sent for a boss-boy and ordered a grave to be dug, also some of the packing-cases to be knocked together into a coffin.
You can lounge the lazy days away in the cool depths of flower-smothered verandahs, with a brown house-boy pulling at the punkah-rope and another bringing you cool drinks in tall, thin glasses for the Volstead Act does not run west of the 160th meridian or you can stroll in the moonlight on the long white beaches with lithe brown beauties who wear passion-flowers in their raven hair.
Neither principal must go outside its boundaries. Are you satisfied?" "Quite. But have you any objections if I leave some orders?" "Not at all," Tudor acquiesced, the pink of courtesy now that his wish had been granted. Sheldon clapped his hands, and the running house-boy hurried away to bring back Adamu Adam and Noa Noah. "Listen," Sheldon said to them.
Sheldon gave the keys of the handcuffs to a house-boy, who went under the house and loosed the prisoner. "You fella Narada, you fella Billy, take um this fella boy along tree and make fast, hands high up," was Sheldon's command. While this was being done, slowly, amidst mutterings and restlessness on the part of the onlookers, one of the house-boys fetched a heavy-handled, heavy-lashed whip.
I had always desired to go to school, and had spent four terms of six months each in the country school near my home; but for some reason, which I can not now remember, I attended the city school in Vicksburg but one year, after which I was employed as a cake-baker's assistant and bread-wagon driver. A short time before this I was a house-boy in the city.
