But at night, just before lights were turned out, or just after, when an Olympian is privileged to work a little longer by the light of the useful "tolly," Caesar and Jonathan would talk freely of past, present, and future.
But look there, boys," continued the trapper in a suddenly lowered tone of voice, while he threw forward and cocked his rifle, "d'ye see our supper?" "What? Where?" exclaimed Tolly, in a soft whisper, straining his eyes in the direction indicated. The sharp crack of the trapper's rifle immediately followed, and a fine buck lay prone upon the ground.
As the thought passed through his brain, however, he observed from the position in which he stood that Stalker for, as the reader has doubtless perceived, it was he was working his hands about in a very soft slow, mysterious, and scarcely observable manner. "Oho!" thought Tolly, "is that your little game? Ha! I'll spoil it for you!"
"Frivolous!" I echoed as we went up the path back of the house; and on our way over the hill I told him about Tolly and Edith. Sam laughed; he always does when I want him to; but his eyes were grave after a second.
The sound is about all that is different in any of the things men say to girls when they like them a lot. Tolly and I are very appreciative of each other, and always have been. "You are going to settle down and have a royal good time, aren't you, Betty?
"Didn't I see the scrawl of the Honourable Tolly?" "Yes, poor dear. I do so want to know if he is happy in British Honduras. But he must take his turn."

The Emperor Napoleon was not alone in his enthusiastic ardor for battle. Prince Bagration was, like him, fervently wishing for the moment of conflict. The soldiers of high rank who were of Russian birth and manners, were greatly vexed and prejudiced against Barclay de Tolly, and his prudent tactics, every day accusing him of cowardice, and suspecting his patriotism.
Wo-o-o!" cried Tolly, straining at the reins till the veins of his neck and forehead seemed about to burst. But the horse would neither "stop" nor "wo-o-o!" It was otherwise, however, with the pony. That amiable creature had been trained well, and had learned obedience. Blessed quality!
Thus, by easy stages, was Tom Brixton conveyed away from the spot where he had given himself up as hopelessly lost. Now, it could not have been more than six hours after Tom had thus been borne away that poor Tolly Trevor came upon the same scene.
He's one o' the right sort, let me tell ye. None o' your boastin', bustin' critters, like Gashford, but a quiet, thinkin' man, as is ready to tackle any subject a'most in the univarse, but can let his tongue lie till it's time to speak. He can hold his own, too wi' man or beast. Ain't he friendly wi' little Tolly Trevor? He'll shake his arm out o' the socket if he don't take care.
