"But perhaps that's because the paint's off her sides and the ropes all worn and loose," Geoffrey suggested. But Master Lirriper waved the suggestion aside as unworthy even of an answer, and repeated, "She knows it. Anyone can see that with half an eye." Geoffrey and Lionel talked the matter over when they were sitting together on deck apart from the others.
But paint's not the only thing we've got to think about. Wait till the autumn and see how the crops turn out. We've sowed a lot this year." But when the flagstaff stood there with the old paint all scraped off, and a new knob and halliards, the Captain could not help noticing it, and ordered some paint by telegraph.
All the property, by a provision in the grandfather's will, was to fall to him if Lot died unmarried. Lot was twenty years older than Burr, and he coughed.

"Well, I was just walking along, and the man came up to me it was right down in front of Colgate's, where most of the paint's rubbed off the fence " "Penrod!" The father used his most dangerous tone.

He asked what had occurred; someone explained. Then he went up to War Paint, and with great seriousness, said: "Yes? Really? Well, if you want my opinion, I think this is just what ought to happen.
