Prompts:


vf16-01 Philip dropped back into his chair
vf16-02 If I was out of the game it would be easily made
vf16-03 MacDougall, my engineer, believes it
vf16-04 It is growing, every day, every hour
vf16-05 Now, you understand
vf16-06 You have associated with some of these men
vf16-07 And there's no chivalry, no quarter shown in this fight
vf16-08 Lord Fitzhugh is the key to the whole situation
vf16-09 All operations have been carried on from Montreal and Toronto
vf16-10 Gregson held a lighted match until it burnt his fingertips
vf16-11 Gregson had seated himself under the lamp and was sharpening a pencil
vf16-12 He caught himself with a jerk
vf16-13 How does your wager look now
vf16-14 He confessed that the sketch had startled him
vf16-15 After all, the picture was only a resemblance
vf16-16 He wondered, too, where Roscoe was
vf16-17 Philip knew that she was not an Indian
vf16-18 In her haste to get away she had forgotten these things
vf16-19 Philip took a step toward Gregson, half determined to awaken him
vf16-20 The thought set his blood tingling
vf16-21 But if Pierre did not return, until tomorrow
vf16-22 Ten minutes had not elapsed since he had dropped the handkerchief
vf16-23 It won't be for sale
vf16-24 For a few moments he ate in silence
vf16-25 Philip did not pursue the subject
vf16-26 Philip produced a couple of cigars and took a chair opposite him
vf16-27 Suppose you saw me at work through the window
vf16-28 He looked like one who had passed through an uncomfortable hour or two
vf16-29 There was nothing more, except a large ink blot under the words
vf16-30 All this day Gregson remained in the cabin
vf16-31 The sixth day he spent in the cabin with Gregson
vf16-32 The flush was gone from her face
vf16-33 That is why I am, am rattled, he laughed
vf16-34 He understood the meaning of the look
vf16-35 She was even more beautiful than when I saw her, before
vf16-36 I'll give a thousand if you produce her, retorted Gregson
vf16-37 They have won popular sentiment through the newspapers
vf16-38 We must achieve our own salvation
vf16-39 In moments of mental energy Philip was restless
vf16-40 He would keep his faith with Gregson for the promised day or two
