The Ocean Cat's Paw The Story of a Strange Cruise At the same time muttering, “Christian dog!” he brought a stick smartly down on the middy’s shoulders. The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story The middy drew a long breath, wiped the perspiration from his forehead, and, panting and weary, threw himself back in the chair, and closed his eyes.

Middy and Ensign “What for?” said Rogers, eyeing the middy’s dirk; “to pick my teeth?” Syd Belton The Boy who would not go to Sea “Yes, sir,” whispered back the middy, “and I’m glad to hear you say that.” Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop “How dare you!” cried the middy, turning back to Rodd, and now becoming fully conscious of the fact that the schooner’s crew gathered forward were gazing at the scene with intense enjoyment. The Ocean Cat's Paw The Story of a Strange Cruise It ran from him, but our middy was swift of foot. The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story “I wouldn’t have cared if they had not been there,” said Ensign Long to himself; “but if I don’t serve that little wretch of a middy out for this, my name is not Long.” Middy and Ensign “Oh, lor’,” cried the little middy, diving under the table in mock alarm, and then slowly raising his head up on the other side, to peer at Terry. Syd Belton The Boy who would not go to Sea “Oh, don’t speak so loud,” whispered the middy. Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop “Sir!” snapped out the middy, trying to look the boy down. The Ocean Cat's Paw The Story of a Strange Cruise The drawing was by this time all pencilled in most elaborately, and the middy opened the water-colour box to examine the paints.

The Black Bar “Then you can’t hear the enemy following us, Tom?” whispered the middy. Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop “What’s that?” shouted the lieutenant, and the middy clapped his hand to the hilt of his dirk. The Ocean Cat's Paw The Story of a Strange Cruise The devotion of our middy to the fine arts was so satisfactory in its results that Ben-Ahmed set him to work at various other apartments in his dwelling when the first drawing was nearly finished. The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story “No, no! please pray don’t do that, Mr Ensign Long, or Tom Long, or Long Tom, or whatever you call yourself,” retorted the middy, assuming an aspect of mock terror. Middy and Ensign “So do I,” said the first middy, uneasily. The Black Bar “No, no; it would be murder, Caesar,” cried the middy. Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop You are just cut out for a middy.” The Ocean Cat's Paw The Story of a Strange Cruise “In what attitude do you wish to be painted?” asked the middy, as he moved the easel a little, and took a professional, head-on-one-side look at his subject. The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story “And assumes such an air of superiority,” continued the middy. Middy and Ensign “Perhaps the letter is important,” said the first middy, “and may mean business at last.” The Black Bar Caesar show um;” and he caught hold of the middy’s arm, gave it a tug, and then signed to the others to follow. Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop The middy was silent for a few moments before he could master himself sufficiently, the horror that he as a sailor foresaw not having been grasped by his shore-going companion. The Lost Middy Being the Secret of the Smugglers' Gap The blood rushed to the middy’s face as he replied boldly, “You have been correctly informed—at least, in regard to those officers who are true gentlemen.” The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story “Let’s set every sail, sir,” said the middy; “there’s a nice breeze coming down the river now, and that may send her over nearly upon her beam-ends.” Middy and Ensign The lieutenant’s lips were compressed as he took a couple of strides and brought himself alongside of the middy. The Black Bar As quietly as he could manage, Murray filled the cocoanut he had brought, raised his brother middy’s head upon his arm, and held the hard, dark-brown cup to the lad’s lips. Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop “I don’t know about that,” replied the middy. The Lost Middy Being the Secret of the Smugglers' Gap If a bombshell had exploded under his feet our middy could hardly have been taken more by surprise. The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story “Impossible!” exclaimed the middy; and he hurried off to report the fact that the Malay was missing. Middy and Ensign Mark felt miserable, for, as Bob kindly told him afterwards, he looked just like an escaped lunatic, who had jumped out of a strait waistcoat into a middy’s uniform. The Black Bar The man spoke with his lips close to the middy’s ear. Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop The middy was about to obey his first impulse too, and that was not to pay out, but begin to haul his comrade back. The Lost Middy Being the Secret of the Smugglers' Gap The middy was silent, for he could not see his way out of this difficulty. The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story Directly after, Ali came hurrying from the cabin, and made his way to where the middy was eagerly looking for his next order. Middy and Ensign “New hand?” said the other middy; “what do you mean?” The Black Bar “No, Tom,” replied the middy; “but this fighting in the dark is very horrible all the same.” Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop “Not a bit,” said the middy, dragging off his second stocking. The Lost Middy Being the Secret of the Smugglers' Gap Saying which he hurried away, leaving the middy to do the honours of the house to the sailor. The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story He was pointing with one hand down the stream, but on the middy gazing in the required direction it was too dark to see anything. Middy and Ensign “It must have been horrible,” said the middy, looking his sympathy. Fitz the Filibuster “Of course I do,” cried Roberts, patting his brother middy on the shoulder. Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop “Cowardly!” cried the middy, literally galvanised into action by the sound of that word. The Lost Middy Being the Secret of the Smugglers' Gap I have learned that from experience,” said the middy, pouring out a tiny cupful from an earthen coffee-pot that always stood simmering beside the charcoal fire. The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story The middy tried to take matters coolly; but the thoroughly consequential air of his companion roused his ire, and he longed to do something to upset him. Middy and Ensign “But you shouldn’t ask me, my man,” replied the middy. Fitz the Filibuster “The lugger, I think, sir,” whispered the middy. Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop “No, I shouldn’t,” said the middy, “because I can’t help feeling that it is stupid, and I don’t want to fight either.” The Lost Middy Being the Secret of the Smugglers' Gap “Ay, fifty necks would I risk for her sake if I had them,” returned our middy with enthusiasm, for he was in that stage of love which glories in the acknowledgment of thraldom. The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story “No, no, I’m Bob Roberts,” said the middy, laughing. Middy and Ensign “Well, yes, sir, I was thinking so a little while ago,” replied the middy. Fitz the Filibuster “Come, out with it, my lad;” for the middy had hesitated and turned red. Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop “How are you getting on?” said the middy, after listening to the scrambling noise made by the climber. The Lost Middy Being the Secret of the Smugglers' Gap The middy bowed with feelings of indignation, but on reaching the door paused, and again essayed to speak. The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story Let’s give him Tom Long in exchange for the middy. Middy and Ensign “No,” replied the skipper, as the middy’s ears literally tingled at all he heard. Fitz the Filibuster “Let’s look in the other room, Tom,” said the middy sadly, “but it’s of no use; our prisoner has not come back.” Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop “Looks old and worn,” said the middy, passing the frayed line through his fingers. The Lost Middy Being the Secret of the Smugglers' Gap Threading his way carefully through the badly lighted streets, our middy went straight to the Kasba, and, rapping boldly at the gate, demanded admittance. The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story “Good as a middy’s dirk,” said Tom Long, laughing. Middy and Ensign “And I, my friend,” cried Don Ramon excitedly catching the middy by the hand. Fitz the Filibuster “No, sir; I saw that,” replied the middy. Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop “Yes, yes,” cried the middy; “and look sharp, or perhaps he’ll be trying to shut us up again.” The Lost Middy Being the Secret of the Smugglers' Gap Indeed he was too steady, for the curtains of his eyes suddenly fell, and shut in the owlish glare with which he had been regarding the middy. The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story “No, not at all,” said the young Malay, smiling; and rising he followed the middy on deck. Middy and Ensign And a deep sigh escaped from the middy’s breast as he stood wondering over the glories of the rapid change from glowing day into the soft, transparent, tropic night. Fitz the Filibuster “Got a nasty wound, sir, but it will soon be better,” replied the middy, glancing back at the half-fainting officer. Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop “I can’t help it,” said the middy, with his teeth chattering. The Lost Middy Being the Secret of the Smugglers' Gap “I think I do,” said the relieved middy, seizing the negro’s right hand and wringing it gratefully. The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story The lieutenant looked meaningly at the middy, who saluted, and then nodded his head in a way that showed he comprehended his task. Middy and Ensign Well, I suppose I am not so brave as you,” whispered the middy. Fitz the Filibuster Upon my word you middies are pretty sybarites! Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop “It must be at a spring tide then,” said the middy. The Lost Middy Being the Secret of the Smugglers' Gap The middy entered the cave, and with, if possible, increased surprise, he found Ben-Ahmed standing there! The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story “He’s about right there, middy,” said Tom Long. Middy and Ensign The middy’s head began metaphorically to swell out until it seemed to grow very big indeed, making him feel quite a man—and more. Fitz the Filibuster “And how far are we above the landing-place?” said the middy, speaking in a low tone now and turning to the first boat-keeper. Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop The middy snorted like an angry animal and began to breathe hard, while Aleck, feeling regularly angry now, felt for the tinder-box and matches, and began to send the sparks flying in showers. The Lost Middy Being the Secret of the Smugglers' Gap “You seem to have forgotten me, friends,” said the middy in English, pulling a clasp-knife out of his pocket. The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story “Why, it’s a bad one,” said Tom Long, sharply: and he followed the middy’s suit. Middy and Ensign The sick boy thought so, but again his adversary proved far stronger, winning easily; and the middy dropped back on the pillow. Fitz the Filibuster “That’s where the trouble begins, sir,” said the doctor, smacking his lips and making the two middies exchange glances. Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop To his surprise the middy took a step forward and caught hold of it tightly to try and jerk it away. The Lost Middy Being the Secret of the Smugglers' Gap “It only requires patience,” said the middy, “for London is a big place, you know, and can’t be gone over in a week or two.” The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story Evening came on again, not too hot, but quite bad enough to make the middy glad to walk the deck in the loosest jacket he possessed. Middy and Ensign “Well, I can’t help being sorry for you,” said the middy. Fitz the Filibuster “It caps me, sir,” said the latter, while Tom May looked at the American, then at the two middies in turn, and shook his head. Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop “Yes,” said the middy, “but why didn’t he tell the cutter’s officer that we were shut up here?” The Lost Middy Being the Secret of the Smugglers' Gap “Did Miss Sommers say that I was not to hear the message?” asked the middy, in some surprise. The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story Bob looked at the old fellow searchingly, to see if he was joking, and then finding that he was perfectly sincere, the middy burst into a hearty roar of laughter. Middy and Ensign “It’s a boat coming off from the shore,” he continued excitedly, with his lips close to the middy’s ear. Fitz the Filibuster Murray felt disappointed, but all the same he could not refrain from laughing at the sudden change which came over his fellow middy’s face, to the latter’s wonder. Hunting the Skipper The Cruise of the "Seafowl" Sloop “I don’t believe it was that,” said the middy. The Lost Middy Being the Secret of the Smugglers' Gap “As many as you please, Brown,” said the middy, laughing, as he poured out cupful after cupful; “there’s no fear of your getting half-seas-over on that tipple!” The Middy and the Moors An Algerine Story “Very plucky act,” said Captain Horton; and he nodded in so friendly a way at the middy, that Bob felt quite beaming.
