The sea is plentifully stocked with fish of divers sorts, namely dolphins, bonetas, mullet, snapper, silver-fish, garfish, etc. And here is a good bay to haul a seine or net in. I hauled mine several times, and to good purpose; dragging ashore at one time 6 dozen of great fish, most of them large mullet of a foot and a half or two foot long.
"Is she gaining upon you, Captain?" asked Christy. "I don't think she is; but if she does get any nearer to us, I shall give her the slip. The Snapper is going into Mobile Bay as sure as you live. You can bet your life on it," insisted the captain. Christy was not disposed to converse on the subject, and he began to wonder in what manner the Snapper could give her pursuer the slip.
They were the scourge of God upon the aborigines of the continent, and were themselves used up, stock, lash, and snapper, in the tremendous flagellation which was administered through them to almost every branch, in turn, of the great Algonquin family.
Frederic Fernand was beginning to draw one breath of joy at the thought that McKeever would escape without having that pack, of all packs, examined, when the long dagger flashed in the hand of Ronicky Doone. He struck as a cat strikes when it hooks the fish out of the stream he struck as the snapper on the end of a whiplash doubles back. And well and truly did that steel uphold its fame.
Why, even the President of the United States, the Senate, or the District Attorney in New York couldn't do that for him. And here was a whipper- snapper Lord Chamberlain telling him that the Cabinet would grant him half-an-hour! He managed to console himself, however, with the thought that matters would not always be as they were at present. There would be a decided change of tune later on.
"That's because the fool was jealous; I lost the tobacco, Mrs Chopper, and he said I had given it to Dick Snapper." "I can't help that; he must come himself." "But he's away in the boat, and he told me to get the things for him. Who have you there? Not Peter; no, it's not Peter; but, what a dear little boy."
An Horse may snapper on four feet. All things wytes that well not fares. All things thrive but thrice. Absence is a shro. Auld sin, new shame. A man cannot thrive except his wife let him. A bairn must creep ere he gang. As long as ye bear the tod, ye man bear up his tail. All overs are ill but over the water. A man may wooe where he will, but wed where is his weard. A mean pot plaid never even.
"We'll bring the boat around to that cove below here and then carry you down." "Do -don't leave me!" pleaded the hurt one. "That other deer may come back!" "No danger," said Giant. "But I'll stay with you, Whopper, while Snap and Shep get the boat." It was a good half hour before they had the hurt one and the game aboard the Snapper.
He was engaged in searching among some scraps of leather under his chair, and kept on talking to the imaginary person. Finally, he found and drew forth a nicely plaited whip-thong with a red snapper all waxed and knotted. "I wuz fixin' up a w'ip fer a little chap," he continued, with a sigh, "but, bless grashus! 'fo' I kin git 'er done de little chap done grow'd up twel he know mo'n I duz."
Sweetbriars, do or die This be our battle-cry Briarwood Hall! That's All!" At the very moment the excited Helen brought out the "snapper" of the rallying cry of their own particular Briarwood sorority, Ruth let the limb go, for Tom had seized the sinking actress by the shoulder. "He's got her!" the men shouted in chorus. "And that's all those fellows were," Ruth said afterwards, in some contempt.
