"Yes, that's all right," said Pen; "but, now then, look here," And pointing with his hand to a spot higher up the mountain, he repeated the two Spanish words with a questioning tone: "Soldado Ingles?" The man looked at him blankly, and Pen pointed in another direction, repeating his question, and then again away down a far-reaching valley lying westward of where they stood.
But again the task proved perfectly easy, for, laying his hand upon the goat-herd's arm, he repeated the words "Soldado Ingles." "Si," said the man directly; and he patted the lad on his shoulder. "Soldado Ingles."
You are not a Spaniard I can tell that by your accent therefore you must be an Ingles, one of the ingenieros who are making the new railway among the mountains. Is it not so?" "You have guessed it, Mother," answered Escombe.
With her was a minister of the Baptist persuasion, who was swimming with the tide, and who approved of the Faith Healer's immersions in the hot Healing Springs; also a medical student who had pretended belief in Ingles, and two women weeping with unnecessary remorse for human failings of no dire kind.

Ingles at all, but she witnessed from a distant doorway the conjunction which Mrs. Bates effected between the leading luminary of the day and the newly-discovered asteroid. Jane ungrudgingly acknowledged Cecilia Ingles to be magnificently beautiful, and her dress to be a miracle of taste, and her advances to be most winningly gracious.
He leads the way over rising ground, riding toward a snow-clad peak that gleams like silver in the far distance, pausing occasionally while his peons drive a stake into the ground where directed by him.
