"I never ast y' t' do anything on it." "That's so. But the law says " "Aw, th' law be damned! I don't pay a cent!" "Then I know dad won't leave." "Oh, you do." "Yes," very quietly.
The little girl ran a step towards the door, and then stopped and shrank back against the bed. "If you're afraid your Dad'll find you here," said Vic, "just you run along." She was nervously twisting her hands in her dress. "Daddy Dan'll know," she whispered without turning. "And and he won't let me be afraid -even of him!"

She led Sage King to a rock and mounted him. "It's good to see you up there," said Slone. "An' that splendid horse! ... He knows what he is. It'll break Bostil's heart to see that horse beat." "Dad'll feel bad, but it'll do him good," replied Lucy. That was the old rider's ruthless spirit speaking out of his daughter's lips.
Nicky was talking on about it, excitedly, as he used to talk on about his pleasures when he was a child. If Dad'll let us have the racing car, we'll go down to Morfe. We can do it in a day."

She must be waiting for me now, so you can pull up and run me ashore when we get there. She phoned to me to come at once, as she wants to see me on special business." "I'm goin' to stop, anyway," Eben replied. "Dad'll be waitin' fer me. He went ashore with ma." It was only with difficulty that Grimsby repressed a chuckle of delight.
What was the old woman doin' wi' such a ring tied up in such a queer way?" "I don't know," said Gertie. "Well, it ain't no business of mine, but we must try to git hold of it somehow.
