"Hillo, Roger! glad to find you at last. I have been hunting up and down along the cliffs for the last hour or more, till I began to fear that you must have been carried off by a Barbary corsair, or spirited away on the end of Mother Shipton's broomstick."
"Hillo, who comes here?" cried Jack, as the boat was nearing the shore. He pointed at the Venus, whence two large parrots were seen flying towards them. "Those are my pets," exclaimed Murray, laughing. "We should in England be looked upon as the advertising members of some travelling menagerie."
First one foot would strike a hill, then the other would go down into a deep hole, and so on, while lamp-posts and buildings seemed to whirl past and round at a fearful pace. When nearing my quarters I heard a faint "hillo" from a by-street, and a continental mess-mate stumbled almost into my arms.
Buckle do with his knowledge? If I should learn a new thing this week and not use it next week I should feel guilty." "I don't know how to use knowledge," said Linnet. "You are putting your knowledge of tatting to very good service." "Miss Prudence, will you use your things on me?" inquired Marjorie, soberly. "That is just what I am hoping to do." "Hillo! Hillo!
"Hillo, Aun' Emily!" "Had a good voyage?" "Splendid!" "Shan't be long now!" "Not long now." The engines stopped. Slowly she edged to the wharf-side. "Make way there make way make way!" And the wharf hands brought the heavy gangways along at a sweeping run. Hammond signed to Janey to stay where she was. The old harbour-master stepped forward; he followed.
"Hillo!" shouted Hickathrift again and again; "squire!" There was no reply, and the chill of horror increased as the feeling that they were searching in vain out and in pressed itself upon all, and they knew that the man they sought must be in the water. "Here, howd hard," cried Hickathrift. "What a moodle head I am! You, Jacob, run back and let loose owd Grip."
Hillo, Pansy! What are you dancing and 'hoo-laying' about? Been stung by a wasp, my little Pansy Blossom?" "Oh, Frank," cried the elder girl, "look through the glass! Uncle's coming! Look at the ship, and all the flags."
Oh! about breakfast-time to-morrow morning, if we keep the boat running at full speed, and do not meet with any interruption on the way," answered Milsom. "Hillo!" exclaimed Jack; "see that rocket, Phil? It looks as though it might have been sent up by the torpedo boat. She will be somewhere out in that direction, won't she?"
"Hillo!" exclaimed Mildmay, "what's the meaning of this? Just clap a round-shot into the carronade there, you Tom, and pitch it well over the heads of those black rascals. Pull port, back starboard, and slue the boat round with her nose toward them. That's your sort! Now, Tom, are you ready there, for'ard? Then well elevate the muzzle and stand by to fire when I give the word.
If we could have got a glimpse of the sun we would have known for sure the points of the compass, but the foliage of the tree-tops prevented a ray getting through. We walked smartly, as we thought southwards, when Allan again yelled with all his might. Strange to say, an hillo came from the woods on our left and quite close to us.
