If he suspects anything, he'll cut yore throat. But I'm with yuh! Yuh've brought me to myself. I didn't suppose they made hombres like you!" "Thanks, Harry. Now listen carefully and I'll tell yo' exactly what to do." For a few minutes The Kid talked earnestly to young Thomas, outlining their night's work.
Gimme my guns and we'd be headin' home in five minutes. These hombres know somethin' o' my gun play. Gee, it's lonesome here!" Dodge mused for a moment. "Say, what's your old man's idea hog-tyin' you that-a-way?" "He'll tell you perhaps." "Uh-huh. Say, what did the Lord make all that stuff for?" with a gesture toward the brazen sea.

The trial by hombres buenos, or good men, is one of the established legal tribunals when either of the parties demand it, and is similar to our trial by jury; the difference being in the number, the hombres buenos usually consisting of three or five, as they may be ordered by the magistrate, or requested by the litigants, and our jury of twelve.
"Garces," said Jim, "send the night shift to bed." Garces eyed Jim through half-shut eyes. Jim did not move a muscle. "Why?" asked the Mexican.

His hand on the tiller and his fearless eyes roaming the horizon from within the monkish hood shadowing his face, he would utter the usual exordium of his remorseless wisdom: "Vous autres gentilhommes!" in a caustic tone that hangs on my ear yet.
