Dangerfield never learned of the Terror's narrow escape. The Twins bore the loss of income from the sacred bird with even minds, since the sum needed for the fur stole was so nearly complete. They turned their attention to the habits of the hare, and snared one in the hedge of the farthest meadow of farmer Stubbs. Mrs.
Beads of perspiration stood out on his clammy forehead. "Afraid to draw like a man?" the Texan drawled. "I wouldn't doubt it. Men, this man is a betrayah. He is one of The Terror's bandits. That's why he led yo' off the track. He brought yo' here to die like rats." Modoc's face was blue-white as Kid Wolf continued: "When I first showed up, Modoc thought I might be one of The Terror's messengahs.
Having set her employer's hand to the plow, Miss Hendersyde saw to it that she did not draw it back. Lady Ryehampton would spend money on cats, but she could not be hurried in the spending of it. But Miss Hendersyde kept referring to the Terror's enterprise all that day and the next morning, with the result that on the next afternoon Lady Ryehampton signed the check for thirty pounds.
Peter is not alone in his fear of Terror. There is not one among his feathered friends who will not shiver at the mention of Terror's name. Peter will not soon forget the day he discovered that Terror had come down from the Far North, and was likely to stay for the rest of the winter. Peter went hungry all the rest of that day.
You must talk to me as if I were a man, a grown man, if you mean to teach me anything. Where is your hat, doctor? Let me try it on." The doctor handed her his wide-awake. The Terror's hair was not naturally abundant, like Euthymia's, and she kept it cut rather short. Her head used to get very hot when she studied hard. She tried to put the hat on. "Do you see that?" she said.
The cats were despatched to the London dealer; the neatly painted board came from Lady Ryehampton and was fixed up in the place of the Terror's handiwork; they did their lessons in the morning; they rode out, along with Wiggins who now had his bicycle, in the afternoons. Then came December; and early in the month they began to consider the important matter of their mother's Christmas present.
Here's 'Moonraker's' stall marked out as pat as you please, and 'The Terror's, but they've got his name wrong " "My horse had no name, Dick." "But there's something written here." "Yes, look at it carefully, Dick." "Well, here's an H, and an E, and looks like 'Hera, Bev!" "Yes, but it isn't. Look at that last letter again, Dick!" "Why, I believe by God, Bev, it's an E!" "Yes, an E, Dick."
Unless we landed, and the machine became an automobile, must I not abandon all hope of escape? Moreover why should I not admit it? to escape without having learned anything of the "Terror's" secrets would not have contented me at all.
When she had helped them to cake and poured out their wine, the Terror broached the matter that had brought them to her house. Ellen's mind ran firmly and unswerving in the groove of butter and eggs and poultry, which she carried every market-day to Rowington in her pony-cart. She laughed consumedly at the Terror's belief that any one would want to buy kittens.
He had dropped low in the saddle. The Terror whirled his horse at Kid Wolf's. He realized that it was a fight to the end. He fired his other weapon almost in the Texan's face. The Kid, however, had pulled the trigger of his own gun just a fraction of a second before. The Terror's aim was spoiled just enough so that the bullet whined wide. The bandit chief collapsed in his saddle.
