He crossed the room to the telephone, and a few minutes later spoke in Spanish into the instrument in sharp, authoritative tones. I understood him to be speaking to the police commissary at Zaragoza, explaining that the much-wanted criminal Despujol had left Madrid for that city, and giving the train by which he was supposed to be travelling.
Do you suppose I'm going to give all Beldingsville a chance to see how I 'take it'?" "Oh, auntie, they'd never be there in THAT spirit," protested Pollyanna, hurriedly rummaging in the black bag for the much-wanted veil. "Besides, there won't be anybody there, anyway, to meet us. We didn't tell any one we were coming, you know." "Yes, I know. We didn't TELL any one to meet us.
Dick knew well enough that his parents would not be able to duplicate his much-wanted Christmas gift, and that he would have to wait until some dim time in the future before he could hope to carry a watch of his own. So all three went out to the breakfast table. Dick, to do him justice, thought more of his mother's loss than of his own. "Are you going to the police about this, my dear?" Mrs.
Hanging on the wall behind the bar was a fly-sheet, the very same I had read in the "Swan with Two Necks" at Ashbourne. "Swift Nicks" was a much-wanted gentleman, and evidently a tobie-man with a wide range of activities.
A catcher is one who seizes the rolled plate as it comes out and throws it back to the roller. It has to be rolled many times. The boss who gave me this much-wanted job was Daniel G. Reid, who afterward became one of the big men in the tin industry. After I became Secretary of Labor I was a dinner guest at the White House. When I arrived the President said: "Here's an old friend of yours."
He had missed the much-wanted cashier whose capture meant a triumph over the whole detective world. Descriptions and measurements were so alike. Both from the same city, one with the name of Hamilton, the other with that of Hammerton. Kobu, those names are enough alike to be brothers, though I'm glad they are not." But Kobu was not to be coaxed into any excuse for himself.
Some days had elapsed since that critical moment when, all unaware of the fact, they had stood within three yards of the much-wanted Soames, in the fauteuils of the east-end music-hall. Every clue thus far investigated had proved a cul-de-sac. Dunbar, who had literally been working night and day, now began to show evidence of his giant toils.
The dies atra between 1810-20, when a man could not speak what he thought upon the subject of slavery, ended as the last slave left the West African coast; and yet I doubt whether the day is yet come when we can draw upon the great labour-bank of Africa and establish that much-wanted institution, the black ouvrier libre. There are several classes interested in pitting black man against white man.
As he went along with the others over the mountain trail in the early morning, he looked eagerly about, as though he might see some sign of the much-wanted rascal. But the trail was deserted, save for the posse. They rode into Rainbow Ridge, and that place was soon buzzing with the startling news.
If there had been a stranger in the carriage listening to us, he would, I think, have found it impossible to believe that I was Neil Lyndon, the much-wanted convict, and that Tommy and Joyce were engaged in the criminal pursuit of helping me avoid the police.
