And then, one fairy night, May became June. Sixteen days now fifteen fourteen Just before the engagement was announced Anthony had gone up to Tarrytown to see his grandfather, who, a little more wizened and grizzly as time played its ultimate chuckling tricks, greeted the news with profound cynicism. "Oh, you're going to get married, are you?"
It was heavy with a strange odour a fragrance of something that made the cub lick his little chops, and filled him with hunger. For a minute or two Thor stood sniffing this scent that filled the air. It was the smell of fish. Slowly the big grizzly began picking his way along the edge of the lake. He soon came to the mouth of a small creek.
I didn't think you would turn down your own home folks like that!" The Dean lifted his hat and rumpled his grizzly hair as though fairly caught. Then: "Why, Kitty, you know that I couldn't love any girl more than I do you. Why, you belong to me most as much as you belong to your own father and mother. But, you see honey well, you see, we've just naturally got to be nice to strangers, you know."
"What do you want a doorway at both ends for?" Tom asked. "It would have been easier and quicker to have shut one end up altogether, and it would be a good deal warmer." "So it would, Tom; but if a grizzly were to appear at the door, what would the horses do? They would be caught in a trap." "Do you think they are likely to come, uncle?" "The likeliest thing in the world, Tom.
"And the thousandth and first time you might fall into their trap! But why can't we take some of that grizzly meat " "Virginia, you'd break your pretty teeth on it. Of course we could in a pinch but this is no march, to-day. Good-by." "Good-by." Her voice sank almost to a whisper, and her tones were sober and earnest.
But above all then: noise I could clearly hear Little Johnny, yelling at the top of his voice, and evidently encouraging his mother to go right in and finish the Grizzly at once. Why the Grizzly did not break her in two I could not understand.
The one that roused Job most and held him transfixed was of once when he suddenly met, coming out of the forest, a giant grizzly, which rose on his monster hind feet and advanced for the death embrace. "Me fire gun heap quick, kill him all dead, he fall, hit Bill, arm all torn, blood come, me sick. Ugh!" And turning back his blanket, he showed Job the scars from the grizzly's dying blow.
He recalled the incident of Ignacio, a muleteer of the Franciscan Friars, who, stopping at the Angelus to repeat the Credo, saw Luzbel plainly in the likeness of a monstrous grizzly bear, mocking him by sitting on his haunches and lifting his paws, clasped together, as if in prayer.
At first the boys were a little frightened, but they concluded that Solomon would not be able to climb into the loft, and that it was safer for them to stay above than to go down the ladder, for the grizzly might easily push aside one of the half-dozen sliding doors and get out of the barn.
From over the edge of the coulée came a fusillade of shots from the heavy-calibre weapons of the mountain men that sent out sparks of fire from the rock. As he thrust the remaining five cartridges into the chamber of Nisikoos' rifle, David looked about the cabin. In one of the farther corners the huge grizzly sat on his quarters as motionless as if stuffed.
