  20    1,    2|               seems so,” replied Lord Glenarvan.~“I must confess, your Lordship,
  21    1,    2|             must be it,” replied Lord Glenarvan. “But where are the poor

  24    1,    2|           Well, we’ll go on,” resumed Glenarvan. “Here is the word ABOR;

  79    1,    6|             My dear child,” said Lord Glenarvan, “there is something so
  80    1,    6|          admires the DUNCAN,” replied Glenarvan.~“Well, really,” said Lady
  81    1,    6|              Well, really,” said Lady Glenarvan, “you are so proud of your

  88    1,    6|      interrupted him, and said, “Lord Glenarvan.”~“My Lord,” continued the
  89    1,    6|          perfectly inexplicable.~Lord Glenarvan was more collected, and
  90    1,    7|            most charming manner. Lord Glenarvan knew quite well who he was

  94    1,    7|          indeed!~“However,” said Lord Glenarvan, “I am not much astonished
  95    1,    7|               length he accosted Lord Glenarvan once more, and said—~“And

  97    1,    7|               hospitality,” said Lord Glenarvan.~“A thousand thanks, my
  98    1,    7|         together,’ and I am sure Lord Glenarvan would not object; but the

 102    1,    8|           enough, Paganel,” said Lord Glenarvan, “that the elements are
 103    1,    8|          mountains at any rate,” said Glenarvan.~“Oh, they are neither lofty
 104    1,    8|        already.”~“Already!” said Lord Glenarvan.~“Yes, that is always my

 107    1,    8|                 Beside,” resumed Lord Glenarvan, with perfect gravity, “
 108    1,    8|             must tell you,” said Lord Glenarvan.~“My Lord, you are a tempter.”~“
 109    1,    8|               you, Paganel?” returned Glenarvan.~“That’s about it,” confessed
 110    1,    9|             teach him sang-froid, and Glenarvan and Lady Helena were to
 111    1,    9|             not Patagonia at all.~But Glenarvan replied:~“Patience, my worthy
 112    1,    9|              What an idea!” exclaimed Glenarvan. “Did you know that, Major?”~“
 113    1,    9|        Paganel.~“They are tall,” said Glenarvan.~“I don’t know that.”~“Are
 114    1,    9|               a little too far,” said Glenarvan. “Travelers who have seen
 115    1,    9|             credible witnesses,” said Glenarvan.~“Yes, quite as much as
 116    1,    9|             my dear geographer,” said Glenarvan. “That is very well put.”~“

 119    1,   10|            the Custom-house,” replied Glenarvan.~They were informed on arriving
 120    1,   10|               an hour’s ride distant. Glenarvan found no difficulty in procuring
 121    1,   10|              women and children. Lord Glenarvan felt no great desire to
 122    1,   10|             any of the other consuls. Glenarvan, however, would not allow
 123    1,   10|              were fruitless, and Lord Glenarvan returned to the yacht to
 124    1,   10|            for more than an hour when Glenarvan interrupted him and said:~“
 125    1,   10|      catastrophe occurred?” continued Glenarvan. “Does not the name Patagonia

 128    1,   10|               you advise, then?” said Glenarvan.~“My advice is to follow
 129    1,   10|             And where he is,” replied Glenarvan, “we’ll manage to go, my
 130    1,   10|            for hesitation,” said Lord Glenarvan. “Go we must, and as soon
 131    1,   10|               to be organized?” asked Glenarvan.~“As simply as possible.

 136    1,   10|               quite a rivalry between Glenarvan and the young captain about

 142    1,   11|              it was for them, as Lord Glenarvan found it far easier to give
 143    1,   11|          exposure to the damp nights.~Glenarvan, an experienced traveler,
 144    1,   11|              the night, about 4 P. M. Glenarvan fell in with the practice,
 145    1,   11|            further. But the agents of Glenarvan had already scoured that
 146    1,   11|              one to address, and Lord Glenarvan came to the conclusion that
 147    1,   11|               but a sharp recall from Glenarvan kept the boy in proper order.~
 148    1,   11|            any progress in it?” asked Glenarvan.~“Most certainly, my dear
 149    1,   11|       question about the country that Glenarvan might ask the CATAPEZ was
 150    1,   11|            road, and naturally enough Glenarvan inquired the name of it.~“
 151    1,   11|               Angeles,” said Paganel.~Glenarvan looked at the CATAPEZ, who
 152    1,   12|             of Antuco, CATAPEZ?” said Glenarvan.~“Yes, your Lordship, I

 154    1,   12|         crossed his arms, and waited. Glenarvan went up to him and asked
 155    1,   12|                 Three days at least.”~Glenarvan listened silently. He saw
 156    1,   12|         talked of returning, however, Glenarvan appealed to his companions
 157    1,   12|               go with us, then?” said Glenarvan to the CATAPEZ.~“I am the

 162    1,   12|             farther.~At three o’clock Glenarvan stopped and said:~“We must
 163    1,   12|               the same opinion?” said Glenarvan.~“Yes,” was the unanimous
 164    1,   12|               any further ascent, and Glenarvan’s heart began to sink as
 165    1,   13|        shelter us, at any rate,” said Glenarvan, “even if it is not very
 166    1,   13|               McNabbs is right,” said Glenarvan. “Get everything in readiness
 167    1,   13|        children at your age,” replied Glenarvan.~On reaching the little
 168    1,   13|             little mound of porphyry, Glenarvan and his two companions left

 179    1,   13|              precipices of the Andes? Glenarvan felt a presentiment of approaching
 180    1,   13|               the chain of the Andes. Glenarvan returned to the CASUCHA
 181    1,   14|             about eight o’clock.~Lord Glenarvan and his companions were
 182    1,   14|             apparent coldness. As for Glenarvan, he was in absolute despair
 183    1,   14|              cost of his son’s life?”~Glenarvan’s companions heard him in
 184    1,   14|           forever.~About one o’clock, Glenarvan and his companions met again
 185    1,   14|              met again in the valley. Glenarvan was completely crushed with
 186    1,   14|              to offer his master. But Glenarvan refused to touch it, and
 187    1,   14|        motionless, though wide awake, Glenarvan betook himself once more
 188    1,   14|              the task of rousing Lord Glenarvan from his grief. For a long
 189    1,   14|               slipped away, and again Glenarvan begged for longer grace.

 191    1,   14|               Yes, a condor,” replied Glenarvan. “Who knows? He is coming
 192    1,   14|          Grant? “Who knows?” repeated Glenarvan, keeping his eye immovably

 194    1,   14|              there, there!” exclaimed Glenarvan.~A sudden thought flashed
 195    1,   14|               we’ve got him,” shouted Glenarvan; and without waiting to
 196    1,   14|             beneath his mighty wings. Glenarvan flung himself on the corpse,
 197    1,   14|           broke from human lips, than Glenarvan uttered the next moment,
 198    1,   14|                 he said; “my father!”~Glenarvan could not reply. He was
 199    1,   15|            him, he pointed him out to Glenarvan, who ran toward him immediately.
 200    1,   15|              forward to meet him, and Glenarvan caught hold of his hand
 201    1,   15|              a few words that neither Glenarvan nor the Major could understand.~
 202    1,   15|        Certain words, however, caught Glenarvan’s ear as sounding like Spanish,
 203    1,   15|                Not a bit of it!” said Glenarvan. “It was Spanish he spoke.”~
 204    1,   15|                come, McNabbs,” put in Glenarvan, “your supposition is quite

 208    1,   15|               offer was accepted, and Glenarvan and his learned friend started

 212    1,   16|              and completely reassured Glenarvan as to his ability to keep
 213    1,   16|            gorges of the Cordilleras, Glenarvan and his band came first
 214    1,   16|         beside them in a close group. Glenarvan was afraid they would be

 218    1,   16|            nor to Mendoza.”~Just then Glenarvan came up to ask the reason
 219    1,   16|             Does he understand?” said Glenarvan.~“That remains to be seen;
 220    1,   16|          peasants in my own country.”~Glenarvan requested him to ask the
 221    1,   16|               the Pampas.”~The joy of Glenarvan can not be described. This
 222    1,   17|            very different feelings by Glenarvan and Thalcave. The Scotchman
 223    1,   17|         gesticulated at a great rate. Glenarvan determined to go up to them;
 224    1,   17|           dare to attack us,” replied Glenarvan, much vexed at not being
 225    1,   17|          think you are very crabbed.”~Glenarvan thought it was high time
 226    1,   17|                it is just that,” said Glenarvan. “It’s the north wind that
 227    1,   17|              contest, and turned upon Glenarvan, whose intervention in this

 230    1,   18|              What does he say?” asked Glenarvan. “I fancied he was advising
 231    1,   18|             Come, then, my boy,” said Glenarvan, delighted not to leave
 232    1,   18|        understand what Thalcave says, Glenarvan?” he continued.~“I suppose,”
 233    1,   18|       continued.~“I suppose,” replied Glenarvan, “the Patagonian and I won’

 249    1,   18|            speedily brought down, and Glenarvan also managed very cleverly
 250    1,   19|             the far-spreading Pampas.~Glenarvan, Robert, and Thalcave, had
 251    1,   19|         uproar a hundred times worse.~Glenarvan and Robert woke in alarm,
 252    1,   19|             Is it the Indians?” asked Glenarvan.~“No,” replied Thalcave, “
 253    1,   19|                looking inquiringly at Glenarvan.~“Yes,” replied Glenarvan, “

 259    1,   19|              low, continuous whistle.~Glenarvan and Robert had posted themselves
 260    1,   19|               Indian’s reason, and so Glenarvan saw when he lifted the powder-flask,
 261    1,   19|            The boy made no reply, and Glenarvan asked him if he was frightened.~“
 262    1,   19|               That’s right,” returned Glenarvan.~A fresh report resounded
 263    1,   19|             On a sign from the Indian Glenarvan took his place, while Thalcave
 264    1,   19|               up into the dark night. Glenarvan could now get a good glimpse

 269    1,   19|               to his imagination. But Glenarvan thought for him, and pictured
 270    1,   19|         repulse the infuriated horde? Glenarvan did not venture to ask.~

 272    1,   19|              A dark suspicion crossed Glenarvan’s mind as he watched him.~“

 275    1,   19|             replied the Indian, while Glenarvan said, in a broken, agitated
 276    1,   19|               t leave us!”~“No,” said Glenarvan, “he shall not leave us.”~
 277    1,   19|              Be it so then!” returned Glenarvan. “Thalcave will not leave
 278    1,   19|            quietly.~“I am,” exclaimed Glenarvan, snatching the bridle out
 279    1,   19|       Thalcave! I commit him to you.”~Glenarvan was so excited that he mixed
 280    1,   19|         discussion continued.~Neither Glenarvan nor Thalcave appeared inclined
 281    1,   19|       swiftness to save them all. But Glenarvan was blind and obstinate,
 282    1,   19|             before either Thalcave or Glenarvan could get more than a glimpse
 283    1,   19|               unfortunate boy,” cried Glenarvan.~But even Thalcave did not

 285    1,   19|              in the distant darkness.~Glenarvan sank prostrate on the ground,
 286    1,   19|               suppose he falls?” said Glenarvan.~“He’ll not fall.”~But notwithstanding
 287    1,   19|           Thalcave’s assurances, poor Glenarvan spent the rest of the night
 288    1,   19|               cried Thalcave, “come.”~Glenarvan made no reply, but took
 289    1,   19|             mangled corpse of Robert. Glenarvan had torn the flanks of his

 291    1,   19|             Paganel. A cry broke from Glenarvan’s lips, for Robert was there,
 292    1,   19|               child, my child!” cried Glenarvan, with indescribable tenderness
 293    1,   19|                he is alive,” repeated Glenarvan again and again.~“Yes,”
 294    1,   19|           spurs did not tremble!”~But Glenarvan put his arms round the boy
 295    1,   20|           aided digestion apparently.~Glenarvan, however, was not going

 297    1,   20|         moment Paganel came in sight, Glenarvan called out:~“Come along,
 298    1,   20|             the interpreter turned to Glenarvan and said:~“Thalcave is quite
 299    1,   20|         Independence far away?” asked Glenarvan.~“No, it is in the Sierra
 300    1,   20|           to-morrow, in the evening.”~Glenarvan was considerably disconcerted
 301    1,   20|           them to the north or south? Glenarvan felt that, cost what it
 302    1,   20|               inconceivable rapidity. Glenarvan was furious.~“Gauchos,”

 308    1,   21|               making a mistake,” said Glenarvan. “It can’t be some years
 309    1,   21|         prisoners.”~“No, three!” said Glenarvan.~“Two!” replied the Sergeant,
 310    1,   21|          positive tone.~“Two?” echoed Glenarvan, much surprised. “Two Englishmen?”~“
 311    1,   21|                But what is it?” asked Glenarvan, with as much impatience.~“
 312    1,   21|               all evidenced the fact. Glenarvan looked at Thalcave with

 315    1,   21|             rendezvous.~Paganel asked Glenarvan, however, to let him have

 321    1,   22|               reply, and went back to Glenarvan to report the result of

 335    1,   23|             just like you,” exclaimed Glenarvan, “you think of everything
