"There will be a pung come up from the station with grub enough before night. Furnished by the company. That is what I have come to see the conductor about." "I tell you what," said Betty's uncle, who was nothing if not quick in thinking. "My party were bound for Cliffdale." "That's not very far away. But I doubt if the train gets there this week." "Bad outlook for us.
"We shall have to have a sleigh or a pung to watch from," Tom explained. "Old Hughy says to carry out a dead lamb and leave it near the bushes below our barn, and to haul a sleigh there and leave it a little way off, and do this for three or four nights till old Striped gets used to seeing the sleigh.
"Ching see now," peng, peng, peng "bad men with swords," pang, peng "look velly closs," pang, pong "wantee fightee," pang, pang "you no wantee fightee," pung, pung. "No," I whispered anxiously; "let's go at once." "No takee notice," pang, peng, peng. "All flee, walkee walkee round one sidee house," pang, pong "Ching go long other sidee," peng, peng.
The train came in and when Nan left him Raven remembered they had not said good-by. There was a kind of permanence in it; the moment had cemented something into bonds. When she had gone he and Jerry got into the pung and drove away leading Nellie, and then Raven remembered he had not breakfasted.
I reckon they ain't much like them Roosian wolves we read about, eh, dad?" "I reckon," agreed the father. At the same time, it was with a certain satisfaction that he set his foot on his trusty axe, amid the straw in the bottom of the pung.
She advanced relentingly as her father came up behind. "W'y a stranger?" cried the section-boss. She stopped him. "Yes, but we wouldn't turn a dog away to-night, dad." She motioned David Bond to enter. As he crossed the sill, Dallas, for the first time, caught a glimpse of the white horse and the pung, and saw Squaw Charley lifting his load of chips from the wagon-box.
We boys will go home and get a pung and come back for you girls." But the girls wouldn't listen to this. They must go with us, even Cecily. "Seems to me yez weren't in such a hurry to leave last night," observed Peg sarcastically. "Oh, it's only because they'll be so anxious about us at home, and it's Sunday and we don't want to miss Sunday School," explained Felicity.
"It brings a message: 'Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day." While David Bond and Dallas were taking Shadrach from the pung, a boot crunched the snow behind them. They turned. And there was Lounsbury, fairly bursting to tell his good news.
"Count upon me to do whatever I can to make it a happy day," said Ruth. The pigs had been fattening through the winter, and it was quite time to send them to market. "You did so well with the cheese, you may see what you can do with the shoats," said Mr. Walden to Robert. "It is good sleighing. You can harness the colt and Jenny, and go with the pung. I want you to take Rachel along.
Just ahead was a heavy sleigh, with plumes on the corner-posts, drawn by two big horses. They could not mistake the turnout. It belonged to the Graves' family with whom Linda Riggs was staying. The chums had not seen Linda since the evening of the party, when the railroad president's daughter had acted in such an unladylike manner. "I see the big pung," laughed Walter.
