If it's anything that would bother her, don't tell before her." "Say, looky here," said Leon, turning on me sharply, "is all this sudden consideration for mother or are you legging for Laddie?" "For both," I answered stoutly. "Mostly for Laddie, just the same. You can't fool me, missy. I won't tell you one word." "You needn't!" I answered, "I don't care!" "Yes you do," he said.
"Yes, you may try," he decided finally, extending the whip that he had been idly tapping against his legging. "But don't hit him, will you?" "Not I," grinned the freckle-faced boy, leading the pony further out into the street. "He doesn't need to be struck."
Their only covering was the legging before described, composed in some instances of cloth, but principally of smoked deerskin, and the flap that passed through the girdle around the loins, by which the straps attached to the leggings were secured.
"Little Remi," continued the Captain, "kept in the background and, in the excitement of the moment attracted no attention. Shortly after his arrival the Territorials fell into line and started away. Remi melted away in the darkness, and might have been observed legging it across a field in a short cut to a point where he knew the soldiers would pass.
The criminal was becoming an obsession of which I must beware if I would not end my days in an asylum; a fact which was further impressed on me when I saw my late fellow-passenger, who had just caught sight of me, 'legging it' down the station approach like a professional pedestrian and looking back nervously over his shoulder.
Put a tassel made of the same material on the rounded end of each part. If round web is used it will require more for each part, for the round is not as wide as the flat web. Child's Leggings Leggings may be made of round or flat web. Measure five inches above the knee down to the vamp of the shoe for the length of the front part of the legging. This gives the length of the first row.
Who in the world but K. would have swept up all the odds and ends of detachments from about twenty different regiments of mine sent from Pretoria to Elandsfontein to bring up remounts and clothing to their units; who but K. could have conceived the idea of forming them into a new corps and expecting them to fight as well as ever instead of legging it like the wind as they did at the first whistle of a bullet?
A dozen hands dragged the warrior from the fire and stamped out a blaze that had started in the fringe of one legging. Every man in the house was on his feet, shouting and screaming. Menard stood with his hands at his side, smiling, with the same look of scorn he had worn in the morning when they led him to the torture. Father Claude drew closer to the maid, and the two sat without moving.
Also there was the ankle, purple and swollen from the ligature above it for his legging was off and torn into strips which formed a bandage, and a splinter of rock was twisted ingeniously in the wrappings for added tightness. From a crisscross of gashes a sluggish, red stream trickled down to the ankle-bone, and from there drip-dropped into a tiny, red pool in the barren, yellow soil.
Pierre delivered this with an unpleasant air of masculine authority which Jeanne resented in her inmost soul. So she exclaimed rather curtly: "We will not discuss religion, Monsieur Pierre." The young man looked amazed. He gave the fringe on his deerskin legging a sharp twitch. "You are still briery, Mam'selle. And yet you are so beautiful that you ought to be gentle as well."
