"You are looking for your clothing, I imagine?" "Marvelous what a good guesser you are, sir," gasped Tom. "You'll find your clothing in this thicket," announced Garwood, indicating the spot with a wave of one arm. Dick and Tom piled into the thicket, passing out the mixed-up articles to the other boys. A quick sorting was made and each item claimed. "Say!" cried Hi, greatly disturbed.
A few seconds later Alec and this Indian driver sped on right and left of a couple of trains mixed-up in terrible confusion, while their drivers, a white man and a half-breed, were in anything but a pleasant mood. On and on they fairly flew.
"Why, then you would have to go. I reckon," replied one of the planters who was talking with his father. "Yes, I reckon we would: and we'd have to take the oath to support the Confederacy, and that would take us out from under the control of the State and make us Confederate troops, wouldn't it? It's a sort of mixed-up mess and I don't see where our independence comes in.
"Oh, I know what they are!" suddenly cried Janet. "What?" "In Indians!" faltered Janet. "Oh, Teddy, if they should be wild Indians!" "Pooh!" exclaimed Teddy, trying to speak bravely.

In his wallet he had about five hundred dollars.
Sadly walking by my side, he asked my assistance in disentangling the mixed-up threads of his thoughts. I put him back to where the constables came to search for me at the cookshop. "As they could not find you," he continued, "they wanted to take your father. Master Leonard pretended he did not know where you were hidden. Your mother said the same, and took her sacred oath on it.
Oh, dear, this is the most mixed-up business that ever " "Dear lord, I begged him on my knees to confess, but " "You did! It gets thicker and thicker. What did you want him to do that for?" "Sith it would bring him a quick death and save him all this cruel pain." "Well yes, there is reason in that. But he didn't want the quick death." "He? Why, of a surety he did."
I 'spected to have my neck broke mor' 'n a dozen times. I never was so disgruntled in all my born days, Mah'sr Harry. Whoa dar, you yaller hoss! Won't you take a-hole, Mah'sr Harry, afore dey're de death uv me?" The old man had certainly got the horses into a mixed-up condition.
"I don't quite understand this somewhat mixed-up statement of yours. You've been fishing on my pond, you say. Didn't you see my notice in the Advertiser?" Dan sat down more composedly.

I'd always been used to fishing there, and I never thought but what it was all right to keep on.
