Whitehead by the traveller's wife, who was naturally in great distress concerning him.
Then something, which came through the air like a Whitehead Torpedo, sent him spinning backwards on the grass. There was a moment of silence. The ball pitched fair and square on the top bar, and then trickled gently between the posts. A howl of joy went up from the small fry who had been "ragging" Tim all the time. Tim sat up and looked about him.
Whitehead had kindly offered to allow his yacht, the Emily, a schooner of about fifty tons, with a native crew, to bring our letters to Borneo, on the arrival at Singapore of the mail from England. About the time she was expected, I thought it advisable to send a boat to cruise in the vicinity of Cape Datu, in case of her falling in with any of these piratical gentry.
Thomas Whitehead is one and being one is one who sometime will be a quite old one and having come then to be a quite old one will be one who has been one coming and telling that coming again would be a pleasant thing and then have come again and have been telling that it was a pleasant, a profitable thing to have come and that he will be one coming again and he would be one coming again if he came again before he became a quite quite old one.
Whitehead was talking in a chaffing way as to who was his favourite boy. "You can tell your people," he said to Hart Minor, "that my favourite is old Polly." Polly was Hart Minor's nickname, which was given to him owing to his resemblance to a parrot.

Man, he was a regular jackrabbit, too. I'll say that for 'im. "Well, I been crouchin' by the dynamo an' let out a screech like wild Injun an' fired off a shot through the doorway. Maybe two shots. Say, you'd oughta seen that bird fly then. As for the other fellow, the one that stumbled an' fell, he picks himself up an' tuk out like a whitehead. "I fired agin, high, just to scare 'em.
I told the boy to let the dogs loose on the trail in about half an hour, and I went along with the folks, and I told pa I had seen a pack of bloodhounds that would eat people alive, and if he heard hounds barking to run like a whitehead and climb a tree.
There is nothing to indicate that the church, or school, for which William Whitehead left funds in his will in 1623, ever materialized. The plan was that it be built in Martin's Hundred. Evidently conditions at this time were at a low ebb. George Sandys felt it was a pity that the project could not be pushed more vigorously.
