"Oh, me! oh, my!" "They aren't hurt a bit," declared Joel stoutly, precipitating the whole collection unceremoniously at her. "There they are, every single one, as nice as ever!" "Take care," warned Candace. "Oh, my soul and body!" she mourned, "dey're all mussed up." "You can comb it out," said Joel, longing to comfort, and forgetting it was wool from Candace's own head.

Here, then, in Freekirk Head were three hundred fishermen with their backs against the wall mutely brave because it is bred in the bone quietly preparing for a final stand against their hereditary enemies, hunger and poverty. The low murmur of awestruck conversation suddenly stopped, for Squire Hardy, with his fringe of white whiskers violently mussed, had risen to speak. "Mr.

Grace, her face reflecting the concern she felt, followed at a gallop and they were soon raising a cloud of dust on the baking desert. A wan and considerably mussed up party of girls met Grace and the guide when the two rode into what was left of their camp. "Well, here we are at last," cried Grace cheerily.
