And so, almost as a duty, the West Front, the North Porch, the Close, the Green, the Wye Bridge, were duly snap-shotted and recorded in a little book that Cynthia carried. Once, while she was making a note, Medenham held the camera, and happened to watch her as she wrote. At the top of a page he saw "Film 6, No. 5: Fitzroy poses as the first Earl of Chepstow."
"Certainly " "No you can't, you ignoramus! You can see a shell coming or going; you can see a solid shot going never coming from the enemy's guns. Aw! go soak that bull head of yours and wear a lady-like havelock!" The bickering discussion became general for a moment, then, still disputing, Casson and Wye walked off toward camp, and Stephen and Berkley followed.
"What will happen if there are two channels, and we have pitched on a bank in the middle?" "I must walk about a bit until I find the right track. The Wye is not very deep at this point. It must shelve rapidly in one direction or the other." "But it mayn't." "In that event I shall lower you into the water, ask you to hold tight to my coat collar with both hands, and let me swim.
Rick braked to a stop as the highway met the turnoff to Easton. "Think we're far enough north?" Scotty had been consulting a road map. He shook his head. "Not yet. Easton is almost due east of Knapps Narrows, and we know the saucers have been sighted there. Better go on to Wye Mills." "Okay." The road was dual-lane cement, now, and Rick relaxed while the car sped northward. "Odd name, Wye Mills.
Harry started forward a step, then pausing, shifted his carbide and laid a hand on his companion's shoulder. "Boy," he said slowly, "we 're starting at something now and I don't know where it's going to lead us. There's a cave-in up 'ere, and if we 're ever going to get anywhere in this mine, we 'll 'ave to go past it. And I 'm afraid of what we 're going to find when we cut our wye through!"
"Ain't it just what I expected? It's better that wye than to 'ave 'im snoopin' around. When I came up to the mine, 'e was right behind me. I knew it. And I 'd figured on it. So I just gave 'im something to get excited about. It was n't a minute after I 'd thrown a rock and my 'at in there and let out a yell that he came thumping in, looking around. I was 'iding back of the timbers there.
I 'm going back. You stay 'ere." "But " "Stay 'ere, I said. And," he grinned in the darkness, "don't let 'im 'old your 'and, Miss Richmond." "Oh, you go on!" But she laughed. And Harry laughed with her. "I know 'im. 'E 's got a wye about 'im." "That's what you said about Miss Richmond once!" "Have you two been talking about me?" "Often."
His great-grandfather was a prosperous manufacturer of Welsh flannels, who had founded his industry in a pretty town called The Hay, on the river Wye, in South Wales, where the boy saw one of his mills, still making Welsh flannels, when he visited his father's birthplace a few years ago.
"Yes," said Fox, carelessly; "I intend making you a lieutenant, sir, in the Royal Navy." The moment the words were out I was a-tremble as to how he would take the offer. For he had a certain puzzling pride, which flew hither and thither. But there was surely no comparison between the situations of the master of the Belle of the Wye and an officer in the Royal Navy.
That's the wye it is, sir." The fact was, the "Cerberus" was not at all fierce quite the contrary! He had been deputed by the others to confront the unwelcome visitor, as being the eldest, and therefore responsible for all unpleasant duties; but as far as he was concerned, he had no feeling in the matter.
