"That's a great tribute," Waldron admitted, "from a fellow whom I used to know as the cleverest at getting himself out of scrapes of all the boys who were resourceful in getting into them." "Having exchanged large-sized bouquets," Julius observed with sudden gravity, "we will now drive home. Do you know I'm mighty sorry my sister Dorothy isn't there? You remember her, do you? or maybe you don't.
Amongst the Kantishna miners, who were most kindly and generous in their assistance, we were able to pick up enough large-sized moccasins to serve the members of the party, and we wore nothing else at all on the mountain. Our immediate task now lay before us. A ton and a half of supplies had to be hauled some fifty miles across country to the base of the mountain.
Peggy had produced a large-sized white towel from her trunk, and she at once began to explain her plan. "This will do for a foundation, girls. It's soft and it will drape nicely. Now all we need is a blue patch in one corner, and red stripes. Who's got any red ribbon?" "I've got that red ribbon I use for a sash," responded Amy. "But I'd hate to have it cut." "Oh, we won't need to cut it.
The old valise I had was a large-sized one, in which I carried my clothing; but I made room for the polish, and started out the next day on foot, arriving at a small town late that night, with four dollars in cash, and some stock on hand. The following morning I started back to where I had left the old horse and wagon.
What I mean to say is, if a fellow in those days wanted to give anyone a letter of introduction, he had to spend a month or so carving it on a large-sized boulder, and the chances were that the other chappie got so sick of lugging the thing round in the hot sun that he dropped it after the first mile.
Yorke and Redmond, dismounting swiftly, stepped forward with him and examined minutely the unmistakably fresh imprints of large-sized feet angling off from the trail towards the bank of the frozen river. "Hob-nailed boots!" ejaculated Yorke. "Guess that must be him, all right, Mr. Gully?" The latter bent and scrutinized the imprints. "Sure must be," he rejoined, with conviction.
Cole was telling that she had been calling on Miss Bates, and as soon as she entered the room had been struck by the sight of a pianoforte a very elegant looking instrument not a grand, but a large-sized square pianoforte; and the substance of the story, the end of all the dialogue which ensued of surprize, and inquiry, and congratulations on her side, and explanations on Miss Bates's, was, that this pianoforte had arrived from Broadwood's the day before, to the great astonishment of both aunt and niece entirely unexpected; that at first, by Miss Bates's account, Jane herself was quite at a loss, quite bewildered to think who could possibly have ordered it but now, they were both perfectly satisfied that it could be from only one quarter; of course it must be from Colonel Campbell.
It really was heroic to sit there hour after hour in the burning sun bareheaded, until all were gathered into one great picture, and a documentary proof could be handed down to their grandchildren in the shape of a large-sized photograph, showing that their grandmothers had been chosen as the official beauties of Berlin in the year 1871.
He knew that the swell caused by the "breaching" of a whale is sufficient to swamp even a large-sized boat; and if one of the "body" now bowling down towards them should chance to spring out of the water while passing near, it would be just as much as they could do to keep the gig from going upon her beam-ends. There was not much time to speculate upon chances, or probabilities.
Poole; but Neale had slipped away from them for the time being and the farmer got no chance to interview the boy. A large-sized talking machine was wheeled into place and the farmer put in the dance records himself. The simple dances such as they had learned at school or in the juvenile dancing classes brought even the most bashful boys out upon the floor.
