Hennigan, the last owner of the property, moved one half of the building, apparently the better portion; but with a badly decayed roof, to his barn-yard, and near his handsome residence on the rising ground south-east of its original location, and re-covered it, where it may be seen at the present time.
And the captain had every scrap of that paper stripped from the walls, and the latter re-covered with quaint, ugly, old-fashioned patterns, stripes and roses and flowered sprays with impossible birds flitting among them.
Then the camp is to be cleared of snow. The shanty is re-covered with boughs. In front of it two enormous logs are rolled nearly together, and a fire is built between them. Forked sticks are set at each end, and a long pole is laid on them, and on this are hung the great caldron kettles. The huge hogsheads are turned right side up, and cleaned out to receive the sap that is gathered.
And the man looked. And the angel touched him. But the man bowed his head and shuddered. He whispered "It is God!" And the angel re-covered the man's eyes. And when he uncovered them there was one walking from them a little way off; for the angel had re-clothed the soul in its outward form and vesture and the man knew who it was. And the angel said, "Do you know him?"
Another was therefore sent up, but it had scarcely cut its bright line across the sky when we observed the answering signal a rocket from Ramsgate pier. "That's all right now, sir; our work is done," said the mate to me, as he went below and quietly turned in, while the watch, having sponged out and re-covered the gun, resumed their active perambulations of the deck.
But the forest remained mute and kept its impenetrable secret. Only here and there, groups of trees, lower than the surrounding ones, and between them spaces of ground, which had evidently once been clearings and were not yet totally re-covered by jungle growth, gave proof of Sakai nomadism even in other ages. No other sign of the past, and my query, perhaps absurd, repeats itself.
The shabby cushions of the driver's seat and tonneau had been re-covered also with grey, and wherever a bit of brass was visible it glittered like pure gold. At the sound of the Panhard's sob at the gate, Félicité and I hurried down the path, armed with the two coats and suit-cases, there to be surprised by the rejuvenated car, and dumbfounded by a transformed Terry.
From the kitchen came the sounds of crying children and a scolding mother. Master Joseph Henry Blows, aged three, was "holding his breath," and the family were all aghast at the length of his performance. He re-covered it as his father entered the room, and drowned, without distressing himself, the impotent efforts of the others. Mrs. Blows turned upon her husband a look of hot inquiry.
I turned the idea over in my mind. I could put down sheets of brown paper I always have a store from the door to the fire, and an old mackintosh over the worst armchair, which was to be re-covered. Besides, I had not had a good look at her yet, or made out the real woman under the prison garb.
You're not handlin' pay dirt, though it's about as expensive! Steady!" Yet it was wonderful to see the solicitude and care with which the dress was re-covered and folded in its linen wrapper. "Hold on," exclaimed Trigg, as the dummy was lifted into the chest, "we haven't tried on the other dress!" "Yes! yes!" repeated the others eagerly; "there's another!"
