The work in the operating room was very absorbing, as it was there that that wonderful apparatus for locating a bullet by mathematical calculation was invented and first used. There, between those four white walls I have seen bullets extracted from the brain, the lungs, the liver, the "vesicule biliaire," etc., etc.
The very act of locating a spot represented as famous and now seemingly forgotten had a fascination about it that excited our imagination; we fell into conjectures regarding the scenery, vegetation, and above all, the location of this forgotten place.
You can't make a mine out of just one miserable claim!" "I don't care, I want it anyway!" Bet shrugged her shoulders defiantly. "I told you there was a hoodoo on those claims," Joy spoke cheerfully, as much as to say, "I told you so." Joy's pessimism was all that was needed to decide Bet. "Yes, we'll record it, and we'll be locating some more soon," she announced with determination.
Swift, "do you remember that old fortune hunter, Alec Peterson, who wanted me to go into that opal mine scheme?" "Yes, Dad. What about him? Has he found it?" "No, he writes to say he reached the island safely, and has been working some time. He hasn't had any success yet in locating the mine; but he hopes to find it in a week or so." "That's just like him," murmured Tom.
Other people abroad ask help in locating lost relatives; and many want advice as to what they shall do with their sons, frequently budding geniuses whose ability to wire a bell has demonstrated unusual qualities. A great many persons want autographs, and some would like photographs.
The children of Mississippi throw stones at colored scholars, and are only restrained by fear from mobbing colored schools. My memorandum book contains such information as to points in the interior of the State as I can gather from officers, and from any reliable source, to guide me in locating teachers. Some of these memoranda are: "Garrison withdrawn; school impossible."
"We'll let Grigsby do the hunting and camp locating and burro tending, and I'll cook and wash dishes. That will be our regular system. How about it, Grigsby?" "Sounds like a pretty good arrangement," agreed the Frémonter, tersely. "But I'm perfectly willing to chip in wherever necessary." "Get some wood, Charley," bade Mr. Adams. "That's first. There's the axe."
It's going to be real jolly after all!" "And how it does rain!" exclaimed Amy. "We never could have gone on in this drenching downpour." It was an exceedingly well-ordered house, and the girls, who had been wisely trained at home, had no difficulty in locating an ample supply of food. They invaded the cellar, and found plenty of canned fruit, tomatoes and other things.
Also it will be remembered that Evelyn, under date 1637, recorded how a Greek came to Oxford and "was the first I ever saw drink coffee." Whether the distinction of opening the first coffee-house in London belongs to a Mr. Bowman or to a Pasqua Rosee cannot be decided. But all authorities are as one in locating that establishment in St. Michael's Alley, Cornhill, and that the date was 1652.
She ain' mooch money four bit ain'. But w'en she all you got, she wan hell of a lot . . . bien!" It was well toward noon on the following day when the four finally succeeded in locating the grub cache of the departed horse-thief.
