"We asked one-legged Dacy on the quiet. He was in the war, and he says the gun can't burst, or anything." The crowd kept pushing Bart forward in eager excitement. "Why don't you light it yourself?" inquired Bart of Dale. "I've sprained my foot limping now," explained young Wacker. "She may kick, you see, and soon as you light her you want to scoot."
And Sprague made a clean dive and scoot under the water, came up thirty feet away, and commenced to float, facing the boat, and waggling one big toe at Gregory the Gauger. It did not take me two seconds to know what I wanted to do, nor two minutes to get overboard. The water was cold, but I swam around the yacht, before I climbed out again.
"Then I wish they'd let a poor feller know when they meant to scoot off," remarked Bumpus, wiping his face with his handkerchief; "because that one nigh scared me to death, he went buzzing off so sudden-like." "You'll never make a hunter, whatever else you turn out to be, Bumpus," Thad remarked, smiling, as he turned to look at the red face of the perspiring fat boy.
While still warm, the oil, like hot punch, is received into the six-barrel casks; and while, perhaps, the ship is pitching and rolling this way and that in the midnight sea, the enormous casks are slewed round and headed over, end for end, and sometimes perilously scoot across the slippery deck, like so many land slides, till at last man-handled and stayed in their course; and all round the hoops, rap, rap, go as many hammers as can play upon them, for now, ex officio, every sailor is a cooper.
He's in a fever the worst kind. This ain't sleep it's stupor." He felt the wounded man's pulse and temples. "If you're bent on saving his life," he added, "you'd better scoot off and get some help. Before we can make another litter for him, let alone taking him up this creek-bed to his house, it may be too late. If we had a litter ready, it might be different.
"And enchanted carpets that carry you in a minute to India and Arabia." "Yes, and upstairs to bed! Good-night." "And knights in armor, with glittering spears " "Good-night, Marjorie Maynard!" "Good-night, Father. And rose-gardens with fountains and singing birds " "Skip, you rascal! Scamper, fly, scoot! Good-night for the last time!"
But Lord Edward was after him so quick that he hadn't no time to go to no gates. It was all he could do to scoot up this tree, and if he'd been a millionth part of a minute later he'd 'a' been in another world by this time."
The sea was now rather rough too rough rather for small boats, but luckily a sort of thing called a scoot came out, and we got on board her with some trouble, and got on shore after a good tossing about which made us all sea-sick.
But I wanted to have her here to to justify herself. Emily Tweksbury is trying to make a tragedy of Joan. I'm afraid Ken suspects her his awful silences are insulting I wanted to to show her off." "Nonsense, Doris! But this is no time for squibbling. Scoot!" "But you, David!" "I? Oh! I'm all right. Remember I have Bud. Why, the chap is pulling up his sleeves and baring his breast to the foe.
The very youthful lieutenant smartly returned their salutes, half smiled, then turned, in search of the officer in charge. "Scoot! Skip! Let's escape!" whispered Dan hoarsely, and all five midshipmen were speedily out in the open. "Now, did you fellows really see -it -or did I have a delusion that I saw you all salute when I did?"
