You, with your pretended fear of death, wish to meet it in battle as eagerly as we do, and your most renowned men are those who have sent most to death." To this strange remark I had no answer to make. The air out at sea now grew chillier. The Kohen noticed it also, and offered me his cloak, which I refused. He seemed surprised, and smiled. "You are growing like one of us," said he.
It was sheer madness; yet it was terribly suggestive, and showed how utterly hopeless was my effort to secure the assistance of such a man toward my escape from death. "A public death!" I said, grimly. "That will be very fortunate! And do you think that you will gain the dignity of being eaten up afterward?" The Kohen shook his head in all seriousness.
Oh, you dear, stuck-up, crazy blockhead!" "You can take dose nippers off," said Kohen to the detective. "Before I leaf de station de report come in dat de lady vind her saples hanging in her wardrobe. Young man, I excuse you dat punch in my vace dis von time." Ransom handed Molly her furs. Her eyes were smiling upon the Kid.
Now we shall have no more suffering from vexatious and oppressive riches, from troublesome honors, from a surplus of food, from luxuries and delicacies, and all the ills of life." "But what is the use of being born at all?" I asked, in a wonder that never ceased to rise at every fresh display of Kosekin feeling. "The use?" said the Kohen.
She wound the scarf and threw the end over her left shoulder with a duchess' grace. "A gouple of young vools," said Policeman Kohen to Ransom; "come on away." At the stroke of six Ikey Snigglefritz laid down his goose. Ikey was a tailor's apprentice. Are there tailor's apprentices nowadays?
If I could only find someone who was a coward, and selfish and avaricious if this Kohen Gadol could but be he how much brighter my life would be! And so there happened to me an incredible thing, that my highest wish was now to find in the Kohen Gadol cowardice, avarice, and selfishness. The Kohen was accompanied by a young female, richly attired, who, I afterward learned, was his daughter.
The detective signed to him for assistance. Kohen joined the group. Ransom explained. "Sure," said Kohen. "I hear about those saples dat vas stole. You say you have dem here?" Policeman Kohen took the end of Molly's late scarf in his hands and looked at it closely. "Once," he said, "I sold furs in Sixth avenue. Yes, dese are saples. Dey come from Alaska. Dis scarf is vort $12 and dis muff "
It came from the disk of the sun, which was partly visible over the icy crest of the distant mountains. Far away the sea was visible, rising high over the tops of the trees, while overhead the brighter stars were plainly discernible. The Kohen ascended the pyramid, and others followed.
Indeed, from what I heard it seemed as though this strange people regarded sickness as rather a blessing than otherwise. This, however, did not interfere in the slightest degree with the most intense interest in her, and the most assiduous attention. The Kohen in particular was devoted to her. He was absent-minded, silent, and full of care.
"Biff!" came the palm of the Kid's powerful hand upon the policeman's mouth. Kohen staggered and rallied. Molly screamed. The detective threw himself upon Brady and with Kohen's aid got the nippers on his wrist. "The scarf is vort $12 and the muff is vort $9," persisted the policeman. "Vot is dis talk about $1,000 saples?" The Kid sat upon a pile of lumber and his face turned dark red.
