"That warn't precisely the exact expression used, M'riar," said Uncle Mo, who was doing something with a tool-box at the door that opened on the front-garden that opened on the Court. Dolly was holding his tools, by permission only not chisels or gouges, or gimlets, or bradawls, or anything with an edge to it and the sunflower outside was watching them.
Often, when it was not in use, I walked to the lawnmower and even laid my hand upon the tool-box. But I dared not open it. My feelings were much like those of Pandora about a certain other box. In my case, however, the box upon which I looked with longing had Hope without, and not within. Instinctively, perhaps, I realized this, for I did not lift the lid.
Miss Fosbrook, within herself, thought this unlikely, for nobody went to Bonchamp for costly shopping; and she saw that the woman would gladly have had the knife back, if she could have sold the tool-box, which, even at this reduced price, was much too dear for the little boys who frequented the shop. "Come away now, my dear," she said decidedly. "No, another time, thank you."
One often found large oranges in one's tool box, or a bag of nuts, or something of the kind, popped in by a kindly Tommy who would pass the car and merely say: "Don't forget to look in your tool-box when you get to camp, Miss," and be gone before you could even thank him!

Here also is a small carpenter's bench and tool-box, besides an endless variety of odds and ends, such as paint-pots, brushes, flags, waste for cleaning the reflectors, etcetera, etcetera. Another stair, similar to the first, leads to the third floor, which is the kitchen of the building. It stands about sixty-six feet above the foundation.
'Well, then, said Jawleyford, with a hearty yawn, 'I suppose we may as well go to bed. So saying, he took his candle and retired. When the dirty slip-shod housemaid came in the morning with her blacksmith's-looking tool-box to light Mr. Sponge's fire, a riotous winter's day was in the full swing of its gloomy, deluging power.
Here also is a small carpenter's bench and tool-box, besides an endless variety of odds and ends, such as paint-pots, brushes, flags, waste for cleaning the reflectors, &c. &c. Another stair, similar to the first, leads to the third floor, which is the kitchen of the building. It stands about sixty-six feet above the foundation. We shall have occasion to describe it and the rooms above presently.
"He's a good fellow, Gordon," Welch exclaimed. "I'd go far and fast to do him a favor. I hope he's coming out of this game all right." Then Ned sat down on the tool-box and told Welch the story of the abduction of the lieutenant, and also the story of what was going on there that night, as he understood it.
