The ship was a mess when Feldman freed himself from the elastic straps of the seat. Chris had shrieked as they hit, but she was unbuckling herself now. He threw her her spacesuit and one of the emergency bottles of oxygen from the rack. "Hurry up with that. We've sprung a leak and the pressure's dropping."
"There's too much water blowing through; pressure's heavier than I reckoned and I don't like the way that brace sags," Jim remarked, as a shower of mud and water fell into the hole. Then he shouted to the men: "Get a thick plank across and wedge her up." "Looks as if the fastenings of the brace had slipped," said Jake. "They oughtn't to slip.
Softly we tiptoed away and, when at a safe distance I stopped to rub my arm where Tommy's fingers had been digging into it, he whispered: "That didn't sound sacrificy, did it?" "The old fellow hasn't struck his pace, yet," I answered doubtfully. "Well," Tommy looked back toward the fort, "the pressure's high enough for one day. She needs another rescuing. You go and speed up the grub."
It really is not for nothing that law and conventions are what they are believe me! Really, Bryan, experience does show that the pressure's too great. It's only once in a way very exceptional people, very exceptional circumstances. You mayn't think now it'll hamper you, but you'll find it will most fearfully.
"Well," he said, "I'm sorry we can't agree; but as regards Crestwick you can only head me off by forcing Gladwyne to interfere. Between ourselves, do you think he's a man who's likely to take a bold course?" "I think so in the present case." "You mean if the pressure's sufficient. Now you have given me a glimpse at your hand and I'll be candid.
Said the Captain presently: "Won't it take up too much time, fixing the apparatus to one tree after another?" "Part of the time will be made up by easier work. No need to keep stopping for breath." "Why not?" "Because the lateral pressure's effected by the spring. It's just that pressure that makes the hardest work." "And what about the rest of the time?"
The pressure's what ye feel; it's like to be chokin' ye until you're used to it. And then the black, damp walls, pressin' in, as if they were great hands aching to be at your throat! Oh, I'm tellin' ye there's lots of things pleasanter than goin' doon into a coal pit for the first time. I mind, since then, I've gone doon far deeper than ever we did at Hamilton.
By and by Thirlwell found Scott looking up at a massive beam a few inches overhead. The beam was not quite level, and the prop beneath one end had bent, while a threatening crack extended across the roof. "We may have a bad fall here," Scott remarked. "The prop's getting shaky and the pressure's pretty fierce. I reckon we'd better shore her up as quick as we can.
Of course he'll have to do them eventually but meanwhile the pressure's off him, the hook's out of his short hairs. He's shifted the responsibility...." "Well, what's so bad about that?" Fay broke in loudly. "What's wrong with taking the pressure off little guys? Why shouldn't Tickler be a super-ego surrogate?
The great majority of people are always inclined to run with the hounds; the pressure's great just now; the pack spirit's in the air." Pierson shook his head. "No, I cannot see it," he repeated; "it seems to me that we are all more brotherly, and more tolerant." "Ah! monsieur le cure," Fort heard the painter say very gently, "it is difficult for a good man to see the evil round him.
