The mother came to the door, broom in hand, and, with a frowning face, watched the sheep splash through the water and into the woods across the river. Little Melissa looked frightened. Whizzer, losing his head, had run down after the sheep, barking and hastening their flight, until called back with a mighty curse from old Joel, while Jack sat on his haunches looking at Chad and waiting for orders.
Well, I have myself, but I'll listen to yours first. What is it, Mr. Damon?" "It's a new kind of airship, Tom. I haven't got it all worked out yet, but I can give you a rough outline. On my way over I got to thinking about balloons, aeroplanes and the like, and it occurred to me that the present principles are all wrong." "So I evolved a new type of machine. I'm going to call it the Damon Whizzer.
I'll take her down as low as is safe, and fly over his house, if you'll point it out, and you can drop him a message in one of the pasteboard tubes we carry for that purpose." "That's a good idea," assented Mr. Fenwick. "I'll do it." Tom sent the WHIZZER down until the hotels and cottages could be made out quite plainly. After looking with a pair of opera glasses, Mr.
Several men nodded their heads. "Squire! The fust time I come over these mountains, the fust people I seed was these Dillons an' Whizzer. They sicked Whizzer on Jack hyeh and Jack whooped him. Then Tad thar jumped me and I whooped him."

"Why, don't you think we can stay out a week?"
"So go on, now; get off of my property." "Well, now listen," began Bunker shaking off Drusilla's grasp, "we acknowledge we made a slight mistake. We tried to run a whizzer and you called us good and plenty all right then, now let's have a talk.
"Bull-roarer" is just one of our local names for what survives now-a-days as a toy in many an old-fashioned corner of the British Isles, where it is also known as boomer, buzzer, whizzer, swish, and so on. Without going farther afield we can get a hint of the two main functions which it seems to have fulfilled amongst ruder peoples.

Mr. Wiggins, his lawyer firm of Wiggins & Whizzer, Furnival's Inn, told me all about his affairs. Oh yes he was a regular "masher" tip-top! Not worth much, I should say. He must have spent over a thousand a year in keeping up that little place at St. John's Wood for Violet Vere.
The scene of the meeting between Dale and Colton was in the rear room of the City Hotel. "Look here," said Dale. "This deal can't be no whizzer like you run in on Sanderson. He's got to be dropped, or things are goin' to happen to all of us. His name's Nyland Ben Nyland. You know him?" Colton nodded. "Plenty. He's a fast man with a gun.
It was washing all the color out of the picture, and leaving it a dirty gray.
