And a chorus of squeals and grunts, followed by a rush in the bushes at the side of the road, told him that the call had been heard, and that the farmer's hogs were making haste to get their supper of corn.
I will let you lead Pier to the pasture, while I feed the pig myself; by her squeals she is hungry enough to eat you up in one mouthful." When Mother Van Hove returned from the pasture, fifteen minutes later, her orders had all been carried out.
"Well, you needn't quote me to her it wouldn't help my standing with her but ask her where she was between half past five and six the day of the murder; and mind this, you must make her understand she's got to keep still no matter what happens! Put aside the notion that North won't summon her; wait until he is really in danger and then see how quick he squeals!"
"I wish there was an exercise to make thin folks fatter," observed Miss Mullaly. "I know some that'll make your cheeks plump and round," said Polly. Little squeals of doubt greeted the announcement. "I don't believe they'd make my face round," laughed Miss Leatherland. "Yes, they would! Wouldn't they, Miss Nita?"
I shouted with triumph as I felt the hold of the Selenite resist my pull for a moment and give, and then I was jabbing down through the bars, amidst squeals from the darkness, and Cavor had snapped off the other spear, and was leaping and flourishing it beside me, and making inefficient jabs.
"If there hadn't been gulls, an' boobies, an' Mother Carey's chickens, as squeals and chitters just like little childer, I'd a been puzzled at what ye be a tellin' me; but as I knows there be all o' these creators in the middle o' the broad ocean, and mermaids too, I dare say, then, ye see, little Will'm, I must disbelieve that ye heard anything more than the voice of a man, by !"

After a while we'll give Shorty a chance to make a getaway. Then we'll turn the screws on Miller." "All right, Dave. You run it. I'll back yore play," his friend said.
In her eagerness, she trembled so violently that she became unsteady on her feet. It lost her the opportunity of firing. For, as she waited, trying to get a blind aim, the squeals suddenly died out. The pigs had gone over toward the edge of the lean-to. When next she awoke, awoke from a dream of well-spread tables, she could not guess how much time had passed, or whether it was day or night.
He has spoken to me once or twice over lodge matters, and though he may not see them the same as you or I, he never seemed the sort that squeals. But still it is not for me to stand between him and you." "I'll fix the old devil!" said McGinty with an oath. "I've had my eye on him this year past." "Well, you know best about that," McMurdo answered.
Still, old Stokes did not like it, and complained to the squire, who remonstrated with the vicar, and the latter in his turn lectured Teddy the matter ending there as far as he was concerned, although the squeals of the afflicted sow were treasured up and remembered against him in the chronicles of Endleigh.
