Harry, our president is a badly worried man, though he doesn't allow himself to show it. Once the road is finished, operating and safe, he won't care what money he has to spend in rewards. He " Tom did not finish his words. Instead he dug his heels into his pony, bringing his left hand down hard on that animal's flank. "Yi, yi, yi! Git!" called Tom, bending low over his mount's neck.
Beside a high-road in the extreme West of England stands a house which you might pass many times without suspecting it of a dark history or, indeed, any history worth mention. The country itself, which here slopes westward from the Mining District to Mount's Bay, has little beauty and unless you happen to have studied it little interest.
Murphy touched Mount's arm, and they halted until the man ahead had rounded a turn in the road; then they sprang forward, creeping swiftly to the shelter of the undergrowth at the bend of the road, while Elerson and I followed at an easy pace. "What is it?" I asked, as we rejoined them where they were kneeling, looking after the figure ahead.

Ian Deal standing in the stirrups swung forward, one arm round his mount's neck, but badly out of the saddle. . . . The tusker turned to do it again. Skag spoke. That was the instant Nels charged.
"Where are you coming with that cayuse?" demanded young McCrae, and suddenly raked a rowelled heel behind the animal's shoulder. Ensued five strenuous minutes for Farwell, wherein he sought to soothe his mount's wounded feelings.
A short distance below he could see the faint glow of the starlight night and knew he was near the cañon's mouth. There were more streaks of red, and bullets whistled past him. Then Rathburn raised his gun and sent half its deadly contents crashing down into the trail ahead. There followed a few moments of quiet, broken only by the harsh, ringing pound of his mount's hoofs.
It is well known that Mount's Bay gives many traces of submerged forest, and the old Cornish name of the Mount, meaning "the hoar rock in the wood," gives further evidence. William of Worcester tells us that it once stood six miles from the sea, in a track of country that must have been a portion of the lost Lyonesse.
