I often find myself a bit odd negligent, and forgetful, and sort of imbecile but that's a very different thing from being off your head. Why, just now, I saw your two horses in the paddock as I came up; and, if I was to be lagged for it, I could n't think where I had seen them before in fact, not till I recognised you. Want of sleep, I blame it on.
The gentlemen were satisfied with my performance, for I had never lagged behind, nor had they once been detained on my account. It was not until we were safely on board the ship that I told them how venturesome I had been, and what terror I had undergone.
I haint been made a scholard, like swell Tim, as was lagged for a forgery." "You go to church on a Sunday?" "Yes; I 'as a weekly hingagement at the New Road." "What do you mean?" "To see arter the gig of a gemman vot comes from 'Igate." Percival lifted his brilliant eyes, and they were moistened with a heavenly dew, on the dull face of his fellow-creature.
"I went to school till I was fifteen. Always hated study, but liked to read. Years ago an old friend of mine down here at Pine Widow Cass she gave me a lot of old books. An' I packed them up here. Winter's the time I read." Conversation lagged after that, except for desultory remarks, and presently Dale bade the girls good night and left them.
"You'd better go ahead to the Emmons place and get Doctor Emmons to come up to our camp quickly," said Norris to the older of the Williams boys. "You ought to get there about the time we do, and tell him to bring stimulants and everything that he may need." Back in the Norris cabin Neil Durant had found that conversation between himself and the mining engineer lagged.
They were having their first taste of High School sports, which made no allowance for quitters. Twenty minutes later a low hurrah went up from the freshmen hounds. Dawson, of the hares, found the pace too swift for him. With a slight pain in his side he lagged so that one of the hounds put on an extra spurt, then wound his arms around the sophomore.
A council of the elders of Vaieri opposed me, but yielded to my persistence by advising me at least to ride as far as possible in the cart along the western road, and to find, nearer to Tautira, in Maora, or farther on, in Puforatoai, a canoe and canoeists for the risky attempt. Tatini, who had lagged behind at Butscher's, appeared as I harnessed the horse.
"Thet's Hot Springs, an' the dust comes from wild hosses comin' to drink." They rode across the valley, which appeared to be five or six miles wide, to begin ascending another slope. The pack horses lagged and had to be driven. Up and up the hunters climbed, once more into the cedars. Pan had another view of Hot Springs and the droves of wild horses. He was surprised at their numbers.
We shall see soon. Meanwhile I turned to my companion and said, "Tell me how he came to be here." "Why you see, sir, he went on in his father's ways, and got lagged. He found his father out as soon as he was free, which wasn't long first, for he is mortal cunning, and since then they two have stuck together. Most times they quarrel, and sometimes they fight, but they are never far apart.
Being democratic, and without thought of setting himself up over others, he was unaware of his greatest opportunities, and when they invited him into a fraternity, he declined. Once or twice he found himself roaming the streets at night with a crowd of students, emitting barbaric screechings; but this made him feel silly, and so he lagged behind and went home.
