There aint no doubt about it there's a traitor somewhere and he must be a clever one, and he must have pals with him, or he couldn't send news of what we are doing so quickly. It beats me altogether, and the men are all furious." "I've been talking with some of our men," Peter said a few days afterward, "and we agree that we are bound to get to the bottom of this matter.
His dark face laughed with friendly warmth into the boy's troubled eyes. "Always stuck up for me, haven't you, Bunny?" he said. "Oh, but that's rot," objected Bunny. "A man is bound to stick up for his pals." "Even though he knows they're not worth it?" laughed Saltash. "Yes, that's just what I like about you. It's the one point on which we touch.
Suddenly, and more clearly, the voice spoke again. "We must climb, chérie, we must climb. We dare not stay upon these rocks. It is steep for your little feet, but to remain here is to die. Alors, we will say our prayers and go. Le bon Dieu will keep us safe. And we have been pals since so long." A softer note in the last sentence made her aware that he was smiling. She bent a little above him.
"Yes, but his pals haven't had theirs." "But you don't know them." "I can guess one man in it with him. We've got to root the thing out." "Why not serve warning on him by Tom? Then they would both clear out." Dixon divined that she was pleading for him, and edged in another word for himself. "Whatever wrong I've done I've been driven to. There's been an older man to lead me into it, too."
I've been infested with pink elephants an' green dragons an' I never com plained none; but hang me if I can get any comfort out of a striped yellow spider ten feet high on horrid hairy legs. I was sittin' in the Palace lobby one mornin' wonderin' if I'd bump my head should I happen to sneeze, when in come one o' my pals. His face lit up when he see me an' he came over holdin' out his hand.
The outrage was successfully carried out, but the booty was inconsiderable, somewhat less than eight hundred dollars falling into the highwayman's hands. The robber and his pals fled as before; the time that elapsed before word could be got to camp facilitated the escape of the outlaws. A two days' scouring of the surrounding country revealed absolutely no sign or trace of the fugitives.
As he had told Rebener, none of his pals were in town and he had absolutely nothing to do until dinner at eight o'clock. Why not take lunch at some quiet little place in the neighbourhood? "I say, cabby, is there any sort of a decent restaurant around here where one can get a very nice little lunch?"
Why, some of me best pals are germs." "What's pals?" "Why, friends. You and me are pals. Me and your pop are pals." "Where's pop?" "He's gone away." "I remember." "He thought he needed a change of air. Don't you ever need a change of air?" "I don't know." "Well, you do. Take it from me. This is about the punkest joint I ever was in. You don't want to stay in a dairy-kitchen like this."
"All right," growled Tim. "But let's quit this nursemaid job as soon as we can, Jeff. We're good pals of yours and this ain't no game for a grown man, you know that." "'Twon't be so bad," said Jeff, comfortingly. "Nights ain't so long and you can take turns sleeping. It's all right as long as one of you stays awake." "So long, Jeff," said both the men who were to stay behind, then, in unison.
I was told by some pals of mine in the City I might rely on Mr Theodore Racksole going straight to the point, and I'm glad they were right. Now as to that feller Jules, I shall make my own inquiries as to him. Might I ask you why you dismissed him? 'I don't know why I dismissed him. 'You don't know? Oh! come now!
