DON PEDRO. De quien supongo que heredará también el título que aquél tiene de alguacil mayor de.... DON EDUARDO. ¡Sí señor, si es de mayorazgo! DON PEDRO. Así, hija mía, puedes tranquilizarte, porque elección más juiciosa, más a gusto mío, más a gusto de todos....
But the arrival of Hurlstone at midnight with some delegated authority from Senor Perkins, and the unexpected getting under way of the ship, disturbed her complacency. "We are going through the channel into the bay of Todos Santos," was the brief reply vouchsafed her by Hurlstone. "But why can't we remain here and wait for Mr. Brimmer?" she asked indignantly.
And they recommenced their howling, yelling chorus of "Misericordia! Audi nos peccadores!" and "Santissima Virgen, and Todos santos y angeles!" "Are the fellows mad?" shouted Rowley, "What if the water does come? It won't swallow you. A ducking more or less is no such great matter. You are not made of sugar or salt. Many's the drenching I've had in the States, and none the worse for it.
I then send the Excelsior, that does know the channel, to Todos Santos, to appear before the Presidio, take the enemy in flank, and cooperate with us. The arrival of the Excelsior there is the last move of this little game, if I may so call it: it is 'checkmate to the King, the clerical Government of Todos Santos."
That accomplished diplomat of Todos Santos absolutely felt confused under the cool scrutiny of this girl's unbiased and unsophisticated intelligence. "Then you HAVE seen them," she said, "and you know their innocence, and the utter absurdity of this surveillance?" "I have not seen them ALL," said the priest softly. "There is still another a Senor Hurlstone who is missing? Is he not?"
You are looking well and you, too, Miss Keene. From the roses that bloom on your cheeks nourished by the humid air of Todos Santos I am gratified in thinking you have forgiven me your enforced detention here." At a gesture from the Commander he ceased, stepped back, bowed gravely, and the ladies recognized that their brief audience had terminated.
And Banks and Martinez would quarrel at once, and go back on each other. No; my idea is to let some outsider do for Todos Santos what Perkins did for Quinquinambo. Do you take?" His long, thin, dyspeptic face lit up with a certain small political cunning and shrewdness that struck Brace with a half-respect. "I say, Winslow; you'd have made a first-class caucus leader in San Francisco."
There is enough on our hands already. Do you all bind yourselves to this?" "Yes, yes!" "Si!" "Oui, oui!" "Ya, ya!" "All!" "Todos, todos!" cried a multitude of voices, each man answering in his own language. "Let those who do not agree to it speak." A profound silence followed this proposal. All had bound themselves to the wishes of their leader. "I am glad that you are unanimous.
See! they are driving long stakes into the ground, and stretching ropes from one to the other. For what purpose? We know too well. "Ha! look yonder!" mutters one of the hunters, as this is first noticed; "yonder goes the jerking-line! Now we're caged in airnest, I reckin." "Por todos santos, es verdad!"
In the original, Omnium Sanctorum Abbatium, but which must assuredly be Bahia dos todos los Santos, in lat 13° S. on the coast of Brazil. The distance between the island of St Matthew, and the Bay of All Saints, is not less than 600 leagues, or thirty degrees; yet that distance might certainly be run in seventeen days with a fair wind.
