He might not be so anxious to leave, if he had what he thought to be proof that there was plenty of gold." "Oh, I'm sorry," said Marjorie. "I'd hoped that Dinshaw's dream had come true." "Had me going all right," said Locke. Before long Jarrow came out, in dry clothing, smacking his lips after a drink, and lighted a long cigar. "Now," he began, "how're we to git Looney Dinshaw back?"
We timed our progress so as to pitch our last camp within a mile of the settlement in Abb's Valley on the Bluestone, intending to reconnoiter it for signs of the Dales before showing ourselves. The valley was about ten miles long and very narrow and possessing unusually fertile soil. It was named after Absalom Looney, a hunter, who claimed to have discovered it.
Thar's more ways of feeding a baby, young man, than you knows on, with all your 'nat'ral nourishment. But it looks kinder logy and stupid." North freezingly admitted that he had given the infant whisky as a stimulant. "You did? Come, now, that ain't so looney after all. Well, I'll take the baby, and when Dad comes home we'll see what can be done." North hesitated.
The thing comes on you as a surprise. The whisper flies around the clubs: 'Poor old What's-his-name has been taken unawares. He cannot cope with the situation!" The man with the collar-studs made another diagnosis. He was seeing clearer and clearer into the thing every minute. "Looney!" he decided. "This 'ere one's bin moppin' of it up, and the one in the keb's orf 'is bloomin' onion.
Also, he had refused to let the boys pay his fine. "He's clean looney," Strothers summed up. "Won't listen to reason. Says he'll serve the time out. He's been tankin' up too regular, I guess. His wheels are buzzin'. Here, he give me this note for you. Any time you want anything send for me. The boys'll all stand by Bill's wife. You belong to us, you know. How are you off for money?"
"Either he's been driven looney by what happened last night, or else or else somethin's goin' to happen that I don't dast to believe. Emily, you stand right here by the door. I may want you." "Where's that pen and things?" queried Solomon from the next room. "Ain't you ever comin'?"
That the defense of traditional rights to which this government is supposed to be dedicated should devolve upon an organization so often denounced as 'unpatriotic' and 'un-American, is but the usual, the unfailing irony of history." Baran, Gerlot, Johnson, Looney, Rabinowitz, these names will be a source of inspiration to the workers when their cowardly murderers have long been forgotten.
"Glad I took them along, although I did so unconsciously." "We must have a troop meeting to-morrow," said Margaret. "This alters everything." "I think it simply turns on the gasoline," remarked Grace. "Now, we know something about Looney Land." Neal was leading in his new launch, and the Blowell followed as proudly as if nothing had occurred to spoil her trip.
Looney received it cautiously, and his great watery eyes gazed at Alfred with the awe of a biologist who watches a new law of nature at work. Next day after dinner Lizzie and Alfred met in the hall, as brothers and sisters were allowed to meet for an hour on Sundays. They sat side by side with their backs to the long tablecloths left on for tea.
"Aye, that's roight, me joker; if ye say that I gits me groob whin I wants it, we'll be A1 friends an' have no squalls atwane us," said my friend the boatswain as the Chinaman passed along the deck to the forward deck-house, entering the galley as if he knew the way well, Tim adding as he got out of hearing: "The ig'rant haythin, he nivir can spake me name roight; allers callin' me `looney, jist as if I wor a blissid omahdawn loike himsilf!"
