|
They were not discourteous to Ned, but they took no interest in his suggestions. |
|
As soon as Ned and I could recover from our abashment, we also said good morning. |
|
Then Ned, from a baseball standpoint of safety, did what might be termed a foolish thing. |
|
Ned closed his hand on the tube of the bazooka and it was so much old drainpipe. |
|
For beside beardy Ned stood a girl of nineteen, who had been paddling in the stream. |
|
But on the top of the bank he turned round for a moment and looked down again at beardy Ned. |
|
The lantern was a bullseye, and as soon as Ned turned the flashing glare on the surrounding darkness the mystery was solved. |
|
True, the burglar alarm had given notice of the presence of the men, but Tom and Ned had not acted quite quickly enough. |
|
Ned waited beside the buttonwood tree until another flash gave him a brief glimpse of the boat far below the island. |
|
Ned buzzed by, picked up two of the thugs, and hauled them off to the cells. |
|
There, I meant to fill the carbide tank to-day, said Ned, but I forgot all about it. |
|
Ned had played the season through at center field on the freshman nine, and had made a name for himself as a batsman. |
|
How could I chatter nothings when Ned was by my side, smiling down at me so confusedly? |
|
As they were passing the post-office, Ned looked in, and caught sight of their chum. |
|
Ned noticed that Mr. snook grasped the sides of the seat with nervous hands, as if he expected something to happen at any moment. |
|
Frank sipped it from the collapsable cup Ned carried, and, after eating some sandwiches, felt better. |
|
The correspondence produced a meeting, and the meeting a visit from Ned to the editor. |
|
Tum and DET some breakfus, exclaimed baby Ned, as he and all the others turned their heads in the direction of the sounds. |
|
My dear Ned, I'm no prude, but there's always some devilment in the blood in these cases. |
|
|
Ned had left Washington with sixteen cubic feet of the liquid in eight delicate Dewar bulbs, or casks. |
|
A heavy division forced its way into the redoubt through the sallyport, and as Ned saw he uttered a deep gasp. |
|
Yes, Ned, and it remains to be seen what we can DOI mean about our business and uncles. |
|
This was a new addition to his expletory vocabulary, which had accrued from Ned Burnleigh's companionship. |
|
My explanation cheered him because he sat down by fats and watched Ned do the floor. |
|
Frank did not receive a scratch, but Ned received a flesh wound in the arm. |
|
Here he is, the only good-looker in the bunch, Jack laughed, pushing Ned forward. |
|
Ned has grieved for her with bitter self-reproach, though he is happy with Milly. |
|
And now Kennell, with his snakelike glide, closed in again, and Ned seized him without warning in a half-nelson. |
|
Both Ned and his sister understand that their father was slain in battle, about this time. |
|
I wondered vaguely if Ned made them as he needed them or had a supply tucked away in a hollow leg or something. |
|
Ned noted all these things rapidly and ineffaceably, as he and Crockett took a swift but complete survey of their fortress. |
|
Next, the office, with jinks at the typewriter and Ned at the desk, was photographed. |
|
At least I shall no longer have to tear my heart out, meeting Ned in her house. |
|
The canoe was bowled over like a tenpin, and Ned went head first into the yellow flood. |
|
Ned went out to center as though he had knocked a three-bagger and wanted to get home on it. |

The sight of this caused Tom Collins to terminate his meal somewhat abruptly, and induced Ned to advise him to try a little more. |
|
Ned Lawless never changed his position, but seemed as careless and unenvious as the youngest lad in court. |

|
I prompted Camille to ask if he had ever encountered Ned Ferry, and he laughed. |
|
It occurred to Ned that if rhymer had not landed on the island this would have been more likely. |
|
Ned looked around for a reason for this, and observed a man, evidently of Spanish extraction, passing them as he paced up and down the deck. |
|

|
Jack and Harry, divining his intention, hastened to assist Ned. |
|
Damon went out with Tom and Ned to one of the shops to look at a new model aeroplane the young inventor had designed. |
|
Then followed a conversation between them, till it was agreed that Robert, as the groom, should lead me, and that Ned must take the body. |
|
We looked at the edge of the forest without rising, my hand stopping in the action of putting it to my mouth, Ned Land's completing its office. |

|
It was when Ned came back to his room, which adjoined Tom's, that the young treasurer gave his chum the news. |
|
Circling and wheeling about in the camp clearing were many of the black shadowy forms that had caused Ned such alarm. |
|
|
Tom, seeing that the dispute was likely to be bothersome, winked at Ned and began to speak. |
|
The best I could do was stop around the corner and give Ned a briefing. |
|

|
Although she sometimes thought of Ned Currie, she no longer depended on him. |
|
But now that the latter had ceased, at least for a time, Tom and Ned looked toward the scientist. |
|
You wouldn't want some young whipper-snapper to beat him in the race, would you, Ned? |
|
But the young inventor was too busy listening to the unseen speaker to answer his chum, even if he heard what Ned remarked, which is doubtful. |
|
It happened right below lawyer Varnum's, down at the bend of the Corbury road, just round about the time that Ruth got engaged to Ned Hale. |
|
When Ned said this the French-Canadian voyageur looked up and nodded. |
|
Ned thought this occurred at Waterloo, but the sister thinks not. |

|

Let's go back, eat the grub, and then continue the hunt for Ned. |
|
He seemed nervous and shy, and glanced from Tom and Ned to his grandson-in-law, as the latter talked rapidly in the Indian dialect. |
|
|
Tom and Ned knew a little Spanish, and with that, and simple but expressive signs on the part of the Indian, they learned his story. |
|
Tom and Ned shot two deer, and these formed the main part of the feast and the Indians made merry about the fire until nearly midnight. |

|
I tell you what, Ned, I'm afraid it hasn't been all right with Reuben. |
|

Fore Gad, Ned,' rejoined the father, 'I was cool enough last night. |
|
About four, I thought, said Ned, but Kewpie could come last. |
|
Ned is on foot patrol nights and in charge of the lab and files days. |

This is getting on your nerves, Ned, and I didn't know you had any. |
|
We have our ponchos, and we are not fair-weather explorers.exclaimed Ned, shaking his poncho and getting rid of some of the water that had settled on it. |
|
Ned and Tom made one or two short hunting trips, and on these occasions they kept a lookout in the direction the Indian had taken when he went away. |

|
When Ned was dressed, I re-entered the drawing-room, where the panes of glass were open, and, posted near Conseil, I examined the ambient beds that supported the Nautilus. |
|
I began to think that the Captain's temerity justified Ned Land's fears. |
|
As Tom and Ned had no wish for a light, which would be sure to attract insects, they entered their tent in the dark, and were soon stretched out in comparative comfort. |
|
I do not agree with you, friend Ned, for I see only parrots there. |
|
There Ned Land and Conseil were slyly watching some of the ship's crew, who were opening the hatches, while cries of rage and fearful vociferations resounded outside. |
|

|
Tom and Ned took a quick but thorough observation outside the tent. |
|
Accordingly, having made everything snug in camp, the party, Tom and Ned equipped with electric rifles, and the professor with a butterfly net and specimen boxes, set forth. |
|
That night saw the preparations of Ned and Tom about completed. |
|
|

|
The wounds were bound up, the man was given water to drink and then, as he was able to walk, Tom and Ned offered to help him wherever he wanted to go. |
|
It was about eleven o'clock when Ned Land drew my attention to a formidable pricking, like the sting of an ant, which was produced by means of large seaweeds. |

|
It is quite separate and was left me by my uncle Ned in Auckland. |
|
This well-presented book would make a useful source of information for any young researcher on the life and times of our most prominent bushranger, Ned Kelly. |
|
But writing about Panania in 1955 without mentioning Ray Fitzpatrick from nearby Milperra is as flawed as a history of Australian bushranging that omits Ned Kelly. |
|
The jungle, as usual, was teeming with life, but as Ned and Tom did not wish to kill wantonly they refrained from shooting until later in the day. |
|
Tom and Ned found it difficult to comprehend all the rapid Spanish spoken by their host, but they managed to understand some, and his eloquent gestures made up the rest. |
|
Tom gave no sign that there was any complication in his affair with Mary Nestor, and of course Ned did not tell anything of what he knew about it. |
|
Notwithstanding this warning Ned stuck his head out of the tent. |
|
As Ned remarked, it did look like a camping party, for in the canoes were tents, cooking utensils and, most important, mosquito canopies of heavy netting. |
