The sunrise patrol from the east, who had just returned, made reply that he had met Captain Abe walking along the surf to get up an appetite for his griddle-cakes and salt pork. Samuel sat down suddenly on the lounge and opened his mouth. "Didn't he have enough exercise yist'day, for marcy's sake! Put' nigh killed me. I was that tired las' night I couldn't sleep a wink.
That before we trek you execute a deed agreeing, in the event of my death or disablement, to pay my boy Harry, who is studying medicine over there in London, at Guy's Hospital, a sum of £200 a year for five years, by which time he ought to be able to earn a living for himself if he is worth his salt. That is all, I think, and I daresay you will say quite enough too."
I have eaten these people's salt, and though I don't like some of their ways, I wish well to their cause." "Think better of it, señor. The alternative might not be agreeable." "Whatever the alternative may be, my decision is irrevocable. And you said just now you would let me go." "All the same, I think you will regret your decision Mejia, of course, means to attack us.

He gave Aline credit for the intelligence that would enable her, on finding a tongue, some bread, a knife, a fork, salt, a corkscrew and a bottle of white wine on the mat, to know what to do with them and perhaps to guess whose was the loving hand that had laid them there.

In order to preserve the fish when the boat was long at sea, they packed it in salt, in barrels. He asked: "Why can I not put it in pickle?" "Why, that's a fact," exclaimed the others. Then they emptied one of the barrels, which was full from the haul of the last few days; and right at the bottom of the barrel they laid the detached arm.
Then Dexter picked up one, drew off the shell, smelt it, tasted it, and five minutes later he was as busy as Bob, though when they finished the whole cooking he was seven fish behind. "Ain't they 'lishus?" cried Bob. "Yes," said Dexter, unconsciously repeating his companion's first remark, "only want a bit of salt."

After the salad the table is cleared of all plates that have been in use, of salt and pepper shakers or cellars and is crumbed before the dessert is brought in.
Away over the water the horse galloped again. Tir-na-n-Oge, with its warm sun and its sweet air, was left behind.
