By that time we shall have bagged twenty-five or thirty quail, and a ruffed grouse or two; besides driving two or three bevies down into the meadows and the alder bushes by the stream, which are quite full of woodcock. After luncheon, with the Commodore's aid, we will pick up these stragglers, and all the timber-doodles!"
No doubt, he would have been glad enough to complicate the issue by alleging Banks's theft of that car. "Well, what do you propose to do now?" I asked, after a short interval of silence. "I don't know," Banks said desperately, and then added, "It depends chiefly on Her." "She'll probably vote for an elopement," I suggested. "And if they come after us and I'm bagged?"
Her dress bagged about over her long waist and spidery arms. No wonder Mrs. Tarbell shuddered. "If I ain't disturbing you, Mrs. Tarbell," the visitor continued, "and if you could just spare the time to listen to me for a minnit, I wanted just to ask you for a little advice.

Cowan and I decided to go over to the hospital and run through the chap's pockets to see if we could find anything that should be sent back to Intelligence.

If you remain, I shall esteem you much; if you depart, I shall do so no less; for I hold that amorous impulses run with a loose rein, until they are brought to a halt by reason or disenchantment. I would not have you be towards me like the sportsman, who when he has bagged a hare thinks no more of it, but runs after another.
