None but a sneak would turn against his shipmates and his ship, when overhauled by the Royal Navy." Betwixt the two voices, Dan said nothing, but looked at the lieutenant with that gaze which the receiver takes to mean doubt of his meaning, while the doubt more often is what to do with it. "Are you here of your own accord? Do you belong to this schooner of your own accord?

"I couldn't make out anything that was said, anyway, but it was easy to tell from the way the voices dropped after he came out that the ladies were getting in their work, and trying to show Matilda she had no business to add to her burdens. "Brother Lu, he acted like a sneak from the Start. I could see that he was taking it for a big joke, because he was grinning like everything.

My fear is that he will sneak off in the night. He is a sly fox." "I will stop that," said Rooney. "How?" "You shall see. Come with me to the hut of Ujarak." On reaching the hut, they found its owner, as had been expected, sharpening his spears, and making other arrangements for a hunting expedition. "When do you start?" asked Rooney. "Immediately," replied the wizard.

There was no harm in that, I am sure; but then, this teacher used to keep the clock a little slower than town time, and besides, be had a way of ringing bells and bells at morning and at noon, and of not counting as tardy any one who got into the building any time before the ringing of the last bell, which really did not go off until some minutes after it should have done; and then there was the back way of written excuses, by which a fellow could sneak up in the rear and rub out a mark that really stood against him, and not have it count on the board down in the hall; and absences of a certain character were not counted either.

"For," said Sam to himself, "everything seems to be against me. I only forgot that letter, and instead of helping a fellow out of a hole that beastly young sneak betrayed me. Then when I meant to pay him out, all the luck was on his side; and lastly, old moony Uncle Dick must turn upon me about that money affair. But wait a bit, I'll pay him back, and then he may tell the guv'nor if he likes.

"Don't talk of it, will you?" he bellowed. "I did think you'd be all right, but I was in hell for those girls till I could get to Caraquet and take back help for them! Only this cursed snow stopped me. We had to wait till it was packed enough for Baker to sneak down to the Halfway and steal a couple of my own horses, for us to ride to Caraquet.

The smile that began to play on our hero's features on recognizing the voice of Sneak was quickly dispelled and succeeded by horror when he cast his eyes upward and beheld an enormous panther, stooping, and on the eve of springing upon him! "Oh!" exclaimed Joe, letting his gun fall, and falling down himself, bereft alike of the power of escape and the ability to resist.

"Shoot your mouth off about me as much as you please, you miserable sneak," he grated; "but don't you dare ring in the name of any decent girl unless you are thirsting to get the worst walloping of your life!" Rod's eyes blazed and he was truly terrible.

M'Shane laughed as she searched for the key, thinking how quickly her punishment had come. She searched for the key, and all the while they were telling her how they had met Pat at Michael Dunne's. "When he saw us he tried to sneak into the yard; but I went after him. And don't you think I did right?" Kate said, as they went into the house.

In his highest aspect he is the diplomat; in his lowest he is the sneak. People who are weak or cowardly tend to the use of these methods, but also there is a group of the strong who hate direct force and rather like the subtler weapons.
