Grace and Flora had been told by the other girls what had happened on the day of Sylvia's disappearance from school. May Bailey had declared that Sylvia must have "run straight to the teacher," and that she was a telltale as well as a "Yankee." Grace had defended her friend warmly. "I don't know how Miss Rosalie found out, but I'm sure Sylvia did not tell," she declared.
"My word! this this beats anything I ever dr-reamed of," gurgled the college boy. "The Thing, whatever it is, has us nicely fooled. There there, it has switched off the 'glim' now the little, telltale battery. Now where are we?"
And then, as if he were not tried sufficiently, the girl herself came flying in. "What's this I hear?" she cried. "Alluna tells me " She saw the telltale pile on the counter, and her face grew white. "Then it's true! Oh, Poleon!" He smiled, and spoke cheerily. "Yes, I been t'inkin' 'bout dis trip long tam'." "When are you coming back?"
Nancy started up from her chair and advanced a step toward her tormentor. She really had it in her mind to box Cora's ears and the black-eyed girl knew it. "Don't you dare touch me!" she cried, shrinking back. "Then don't you dare suggest that I'd be a telltale," warned Nancy. "I leave that to you." "Oh, you do!" Nancy was silent, and Cora calmed down.
Mackenzie started as if she had thrust him with a needle, felt his telltale blood flare red in his face, but grinned a little as he turned to her, meeting her eye to eye. "So, you saw through me, did you, Joan?" "When you called me Rachel that day." "I nearly told you that time," he sighed.
Rainey and Lund were barely seated before the heeling of the schooner and the scuffle of feet told of Lund's prophesied change of course. Rainey looked at the telltale compass above his head. "Heading due west," he told Lund. "West it is," said the giant. "More coffee, Tamada. Fill your belly, Rainey. Get a good meal while the eatin' is good."
Don't be stupid, Dick. Of course he hasn't said a word; I believe he's engaged to somebody; I thought so from something he said a little while ago. The idea of me marrying a man like that! He examined her closely, and Alice was not afraid of telltale cheeks. 'Well, I can't think you'd be such a fool. If I thought there was any danger of that, I'd soon stop it. 'Would you, indeed!
"About what?" "What I have just told you." "I don't feel that I have any call to do anything." "You ought to tell your employer." "I am no telltale," said James scornfully. "Then you will let him stay in the store, knowing him to be a thief?" "I don't know him to be a thief. If he steals anything it will probably be found out."
He had even, in those earlier hesitating moments, consolingly recalled to his mind how Monsieur Blanc's modestly denominated Société Anonyme des Bains de Mer et Cercle des Étrangers made it a point to proffer a railway ticket to any impending wreck, such as himself, who might drift like a stain across its roads of merriment, or leave a telltale blot upon one of its perennially beautiful and ever-odorous flower-beds.
He turned toward me and I felt the telltale color sweep my cheeks as I became conscious that I was thinking less of Leese and his compatriots than of the Bostonian at my side. "It wasn't the New England spirit," he declared, "that gave these early settlers the strength and determination to succeed. It was the women who had faith in them.
