A rare procession, a rare army, consisting of men armed with pikes, hatchets, and spades, of women brandishing knives and scissors in their hands, and all directing their countenances, before hyena-like and scornful, but now subdued and sympathetic, to the queen, who with calm eye and gentle look responded to the salutations of the retreating crowd with a friendly nod.
Walker had attempted with considerable success, seeing that he carried only a pedometer and a small pocket-compass. My proceedings were necessarily limited, as I had no authority to disburse money. February 3. The night had been somewhat noisy with the hyena-like screams which startled our soldiers en route to Kumasi.
They knew that they had only to destroy the handful of men at police headquarters and the city was theirs to plunder and destroy with hyena-like savagery. Acton, now cognizant of the worst, went to the police commissioners' room and said: "Gentlemen, the crisis has come. A battle must be fought now, and won, too, or all is lost."
But another German enemy had. From behind a heap of offal, on the crest, a yellow-gray dog had sprung, and had launched himself bodily upon Bruce's flank as the unnoticing collie had flashed past him. The assailant was an enormous and hyena-like German police-dog. For, in traits as well as in looks, the police-dog often emulates the ghoulish hyena.
A perfect imitation of a coyote's yapping, hyena-like cry rang out. "Great. Maybe we can use that sometime." How soon that cry was to be used, and to what disastrous effect on our little party of adventurers, we shall see as our story progresses.
"Those are the Red Fleet destroyer flotilla, which is too frail to panic about among the full-blooded cruisers inside Portland breakwater, and several millimetres too excited over the approachin' war to keep a look- out inshore. Hence our tattics!" We wailed through our siren a long, malignant, hyena-like howl and a voice hailed us as we went astern tumultuously.
And as the landlord fell, gray and gasping, back in his seat, he broke out into a loud and hyena-like laugh. "My dear little friend," said Sir Norman, staring at him in displeased wonder, "don't laugh, if you can help it.
She recognized monsieur the archdeacon of Josas, a holy man. "Father," she inquired, "whom are they about to hang yonder?" The priest looked at her and made no reply; she repeated her question. Then he said, "I know not." "Some children said that it was a gypsy," went on the recluse. "I believe so," said the priest. Then Paquette la Chantefleurie burst into hyena-like laughter.
As he went down the hyena-like brutes were upon him, and as he struggled to his feet the blacks closed in. A couple of them seized the clawing, biting Meriem, and subdued her a blow upon the head was sufficient. For the ape-man they found more drastic measures would be necessary. Weighted down as he was by dogs and warriors he still managed to struggle to his feet.
Who are they? the midnight assassins of reputation, who lurk in the by-lanes of society, with dagger tongues sharpened by invention and envenomed by malice, to draw the blood of innocence, and, hyena-like, banquet on the dead? Who are they?
