"Here's my father, or the police!" . . . . . . . Frontispiece
He surveyed himself with an excited curiosity.
"I can't hold him!"
He poured comforting assurances of safety into her ears.
"She was quite out of control for a good five minutes."
"To-night reflect on your misdeeds. To-morrow we will treat of your ransom."

It's time these lubbers walked the plank.
