"Shotwell!" laughed John. "He's got about as much agony to conceal as a wash-bench with a broken leg. O, I'll conceal mine if anybody'll tell me how." Champion closed his lips but laughed audibly, in his stomach. "Well, then, get that face off of you. You look like a boy that'd lost all his money at a bogus snake-show."
"Take it easy. Don't hurt yourself. The trouble's over. Anybody'll happen along any time now and get us out of this fix." But the smaller branch of the two composing the fork broke, and Michael fell to the ground, landing in momentary confusion on his head and shoulders. The next moment he was on his feet and tearing down the road in the direction of Jerry's noisy pursuit.
"How shall I find my brother when I get to White Plains?" she asked. "Oh, anybody'll show you the way to the training-camp. If you hurry, there's a train you can make now." "Thank you very much." "You're welcome."

"Not until some time before the news reached you," One replied, pleasantly. "And what of it?" "Three fycers in a week, Gov'ner anybody'll tell you that's comin' it a bit thick." "Granted. What then?"
