But across this ravine into which the road plunged, and slantingly, were strung much heavier wires feed cables from the Cliffdale power station over the hill. "Why, look at those icicles!" exclaimed Betty, with big eyes and watching the hanging wires ahead. "If they fell they would kill a person, I do believe!"
"He was struck slantingly," he said, "the ball has gone round by the back; turn him over, sergeant. Ah, I thought so; it has gone out on the other side. Well, I think it has missed any vital part, and in that case I can give you hope.
"We're cutting into the 'Thor's' water." A few moments more, and Benson found his craft slantingly across the Rhinds boat's course, well ahead. "Now, we'll show you!" quavered Jack Benson, as he briefly shook his fist back at the wicked rivals. "If we don't blow the lid off this sea-turtle!" muttered young Somers, to himself. At the youthful captain's sharp order Eph swung the course around.
How he must have suffered to lose his beautiful wife! There were days on which Joseph's business or pleasure took him past his brother's house, though he always walked on the further side, and Uriel now set himself to keep watch at his study window from morning to night, the pair of Dutch mirrors fixed slantingly outside the window enabling him to see all the street life without being seen.

The crosses recorded various ages, two years, sixteen months, five months. One poor little cross, destitute of any railing, was out of line, having been set up slantingly across a path, and it simply bore the words: 'Eugenie, three days.

This extreme range could be attained by elevating the gun to exactly the proper pitch. Of course, any shorter range could, within certain limits, also be reached. The gun was pointed slantingly up the valley, and there was ample room to attain the thirty-mile range without doing any damage.
