Altamont knew without looking at his associate that Loudons would be inconspicuously jotting down notes. The last was an item the sociologist would be sure to record: the white-bearded Tenant had pronounced that reference to a written testament in capital letters. The story was continuing.... "... finally, they came here.
"Well, then," resumed Rooney, jotting down the figure 5, "there you have it five. Any boy at school could tell you what that is." The Eskimo pondered deeply and stared. The other Eskimos did the same. "But what," asked Okiok, "if a boy should say that it was six, and not five?" "Why, then we'd whack him, and he'd never say that again."
Now, then, let us make our pencils fly for a while in getting up a revised code of signals." It was not a long task after all. From the two typewritten copies Dick copied the first half of the plays, Dave the latter. Then Coach Morton went over the new sheets, rapidly jotting down new figures that should make all plain.
I rambled in and out, learning to look at death, studying the manifestations of pain, quivering and sickening at times, but plying my avocation, and jotting the names for my column of mortalities. At eleven o'clock there was music along the high-road, and a general rushing from camps. The victorious regiments were returning from Hanover, under escort, and all the bands were pealing national airs.
Pinkerton was in the waiting-room, feverishly jotting in his pocket-book. As he saw me enter, he sprang up, and I declare the tears were trickling on his cheeks. "My dear boy," he cried, "I can never forgive myself, and you can never forgive me. Never mind: I did it for the best. And how nobly you clung on! I dreaded we should have had to return the money at the doors."
She had nothing to do with this German school. Baskets at her feet made her pick her way. Solomon was kneeling at one, sorting and handing out. At a little table under the window Millie stood jotting pencil notes on a pocket-book. Judy was at her side. The others were grouped about the piano. Gertrude sat on the keyboard her legs dangling. Miriam plumped down on a full basket.
Ready in resource, he produced his pocket-book, and, hastily jotting down a memorandum of the parishioner's grievance, he said, with an insinuating smile, "It is so stupid of me, but I always forget how to spell your name." "J O N E S," was the gruff response; and the shepherd and the sheep went their several ways in mutual disgust.
Vernon, O. If not called for in 5 days forward to Columbus; if not called for in 5 days forward to Dayton," she slipped down to the office and asked the landlord to please mail it for her. He carelessly laid it down on the desk near the detective, who lost no time in jotting down the full directions. The last we saw of him he had bought a ticket and was taking the first train for Mt. Vernon.
It has simply become a silly habit, this jotting down of idle words. From Miss Helen Jelliffe to Miss Jane Van Zandt Dearest Aunt Jennie: I am writing again so soon because I don't think I can sleep, to-night. I know that some people can't possibly slumber off when they are over-tired. That must be the matter with me, though I never realized it.
"Whew!" gasped Ned. "How can you? I haven't got my breath back yet." "It is peril that is the mother of invention," Tom went on, still jotting down his notes. "Believe me! that jolt gave me a new idea an important idea. Suppose that operator at Half Way had been out back somewhere, and had not seen or heard us flash by?" "Well, suppose he had?
