"Hole in the Day" was the chief of the Chippeways.

Between him and the spot where the firing party had stood, but nearer to the latter, was a great cavity in the ground, a hole ten feet across and perhaps a yard deep.

You said to yourself: 'Hole is not a good answer because he will think I am thinking, of those eyeholes, so I'll change it to "hammer" which, means nothing.'

The round hole he made was fully seven inches in diameter.

But as soon as my eyes were used to the dimmer light, I saw that it was no such thing, but that the hole into which I had crept was only the mouth of a passage, which sloped gently down in the direction of the church.

" "The hole is four hundred and eighty yards, and you were thirty yards from the green in two," said Merle.

The holes extended in about six inches, and there was never a perpendicular branch, nor even an enlargement at the end.

The hole in my stop is only two-tenths of an inch in diameter, and I believe one-tenth would be more suitable.

" This holy hole was a vile thin-built thing, Blown by the blast; the night nought else o'erhead But staring stars the rude roof entering; Their sup of supper was no splendid spread; Poor pears their fare, and such-like libelling Of quantum suff;their butt all but;bad bread; A flash of fish instead of flush of flesh; Their bed a frisk al-fresco, freezing fresh.

The hole became a bottomless pit when Bud appeared in a pretty linen frock, and asked him demurely how he fared.

A small round hole was now sean, and by gently pressing on its walls, I thought I detected the presence of the ball.

A more picturesque or more uncanny little hole than that latter we had never yet seen: but there are many such harbours about these islands, which nature, for the time being at least, has handed over from the dominion of fire to that of water.

Probably to the ranchers this mud-hole was a pleasing picture, but to me, who loved the beauty of the desert before its productiveness, it was hideous.

Fish demons gleam out of the sides of the mountains, and the black bog-holes are the haunts of slimy monsters of inconceivable horror.
