"He seems quite intelligent too," said the General. "Yes, the way he nabbed that German was just fine; he had very little data upon which to go, and it seems that this man Werter has been on the loose for weeks. Nancarrow, however, spotted him, and now he will not do any more spying. If Nancarrow doesn't get killed, he will be of great service to us."
I had often observed that all the change that came from the bar was new, and looked as though fresh from the mint, but I didn't dream that it was counterfeit; and when a police officer nabbed me, and searched my pockets, and exhibited a few bad shillings, I thought I should die with shame, for I little suspected that I was the medium through which the money was circulated.
"Nary a thing would he say, except to declare himself innocent, and that he himself had heard a noise out there last night, and guessed that some enemy of his must have set up a mean game on him, wanting to get him nabbed.

Let the kids stay if they want to." "So as they can round on us if they're nabbed," Blackwell sneered. Cranston called him down roughly. "That'll be enough along that line, Lute.
"Nonsense," said the father; "of course I couldn't go out with my own son; there's Theobald French; I went out with his cousin just after Waterloo." "He can't show he's on his keeping. He'd be nabbed before he was on the ground." "Then I'll have Larkin; I've known him since I was a boy." "Larkin's too old for that game now; he'd be letting them have Webb up with his back to the sun."

"Yesum." "Well, what has happened to him, man? Can't you speak?" "He's took." "Took?" "Nabbed. Got the darbies on and gone South a wisitin'." "Do you mean to say that Watson has been arrested?" "I do, mam," grunted Brower. "He's well out of town, goin' South, and I reckin he'll be in Jeffe'son City before we hear from him agin. I seed him a-goin' with my own eyes." "How did it happen?"
