Defend your faith if you would keep it glowing. The time of their departure was at hand. There had been two days of intense packing of the food and clothing necessary for their two-hundred-mile walk. Now that was behind them, and after a short trip which Philip must take the following morning, they would be off for the ten or fifteen miles they hoped to cover that day.
Then he says to the guide, "I want you both to watch the tell-tale all through the watches, and whenever it don't mark three hundred miles an hour, you go higher or drop lower till you find a storm-current that's going your way. There's a hundred miles an hour in this old thing without any wind to help. There's two-hundred-mile gales to be found, any time you want to hunt for them."
"Next day I left that station at last, with a caravan of sixty men, for a two-hundred-mile tramp. "No use telling you much about that.
There was truly a clumping of enemy ships ahead. Some of them were less than ten miles apart. In a two-hundred-mile sphere there were forty ships. They'd been moving to consolidate themselves into a mutually assisting group. What they accomplished was the provision of a fine accumulation of targets.

I lost it through helping to take care of a box of guns on a two-hundred-mile railway journey one winter's night. It is the actual truth, and I will tell you about it. I belong in Cleveland, Ohio.
It is not necessary to write much detail of the two-hundred-mile journey to Fairbanks up the Tanana River. The trail was then wholly on the river, but now it has been taken wholly off, as every Alaskan musher hopes some day will be done with all trails.
"Next," he instructed Simmons, "see if you can communicate with Monsieur X." The operator speedily reported his success at that. Eldridge removed his glasses and polished their lenses. "Thus, gentlemen," said he, "from our circle of two-hundred-mile radius we have eliminated a strip ten miles wide.
Eldridge asked Simmons. "Its extreme is about two hundred miles." "Then we can safely assume that a circle drawn with a two-hundred-mile radius would contain this man you call Monsieur X" the newspapers had adopted Darrow's nickname for the Unknown "since you have succeeded in communicating with him." "Marvelous," said Darrow to Jack but under his breath.
