And Those Others, were they following the trail of their mechanical hound as they had before? Dalgard sent out questing tendrils of thought. Nowhere did he encounter the flashes which announced the proximity of Those Others. No, it would appear that they had unleashed the hound to do what damage it could, perhaps to serve them as a marker for a future counterattack. At present it was alone.
Five minutes afterwards I saw Goren insert his hand, empty, in his neighbour's pocket, and bring it out full and half an hour afterwards he handed over a fifty pound note to the marker, saying, "There, Sir, is my debt to you. God bless me, Lord , how you have won; I wish you would not leave all your money about do put it in your pocket with the rest."
Setting a marker in the book he closed it reluctantly, and prepared to return the litter of documents to the drawers which stood open beside him. At that moment the door opened, and the tall figure of the squaw An-ina stood in the framing. "Him supper all fixed," she announced, in her quietly assured fashion. Steve looked up, and his eyes gazed squarely into the woman's handsome face.
The citizens of Baker City lent a willing ear to the suggestion to erect a monument on the high-school grounds, although the trail is six miles off to the north, and a fine granite shaft was provided for the high-school grounds and was dedicated. A marker was set on the trail. Eight hundred school children contributed an aggregate of sixty dollars to place a children's bronze tablet on this shaft.
In the brightly illuminated room beyond the hall Helena and Gregory were playing parchesi Gregory firmly grasped the cup from which he intently rolled the dice; Helena shook the fair hair from her eyes and, it immediately developed, moved a pink marker farther than proper. "You only got seven!" Gregory exclaimed; "and you took it nine right on that safety."
A rational person fresh from his own house would have turned on his side and slept. I did not. So surely as I was given up as a bad carcass by the scores of things in the bed because the bulk of my blood was in my heart, so surely did I hear every stroke of a long game at billiards played in the echoing room behind the iron-barred door. My dominant fear was that the players might want a marker.
'Well, I thought, on seeing Hlopakov, 'I wonder what his catchword is now? The prince hit the white. 'Thirty love, whined a consumptive marker, with a dark face and blue rings under his eyes. The prince sent the yellow with a crash into the farthest pocket.
On the steps of the reading-room stood old Tom Ruddle, who acted as marker in the billiard-room, treasurer, and book-keeper beside, and swept out the premises every morning, and went to and fro at the proper hours, between that literary and sporting institution and the post-office; and who, though seldom sober, was always well instructed in the news of the town.
The doctor, who had been afraid of some such attack, had left a marker in a medical dictionary which we had, at the page on which the symptoms were described, and had told us to turn up this passage, where we would find the measures of 'first aid' to be adopted. My mother sent Francoise to fetch the book, warning her not to let the marker drop out.
The special constable looked at him, and in the young man's eyes there was something that made the murderer shiver. "I'm making a tombstone." "What?" West felt a drench of ice at his heart.
