"No doubt he's saying to himself: 'Shucks! Where's that hermit or hermitess " merrily, "'with the frog in her throat, or the great, big worm?" "Oh! do-o try it again, anyway?" pleaded the visitors together. "It's won-der-ful! We'll be as still as still as a nun's chapel!"
Where's that will, rogue? What have you done wi' 't?" Vetch turned a shade paler, I thought.

They're payin' 10 times that in some places." "I tell you, we didn't enlist for the bounty," reiterated Harry. "All the same, you don't want to be robbed o' what's yours. You don't want to be skinned out o' your money by a gang o' snoozers who're gittin' rich off of green boys like you. Where's this Sarjint Klegg and Corpril Elliott that brung you here?"

"Come down off the top of that horse, Mullan," he ordered, fiercely. "How how'd ye get here? Which way'd ye come? Where's the rest?"
"John, that's the first glimmer of sense you ever showed, and it's the first time I ever wanted to see that lawyer." Turning to the telephone she said: "I'll send for my lawyer at once and he'll know what to do. Where's the man?" After a moment: "I'll send a car down and get him.

"Well?" he demanded. His voice was emotionless. "Just a little friendly call," Cassidy announced, in his strident voice. "Where's the lady of the house?" "Out." It was Aggie who spoke, very sharply.
Rest in the chairs which stood round the big hearth and smouldering wood-fire was so extremely comfortable, as they all dropped down, that nobody moved or spoke, or knew how long it was before there was a voice on the stairs 'Eh? what's this, Annaple? An accident? Where's Janet? and a tall burly figure, candle in hand, in a dressing-gown and slippers, was added to the group.
