Stanhope sank back on his box, his relaxed nerves throbbing and his lips forming the words: "Thank God!" 1 pound raisins. Just here the whistle of bob-white sounded from a little distance along the trail. "Ay, that must be," exclaimed the Admiral, "even though Heaven should rain French men-of-war.".
