"'These gents, says Enright, 'is a quorum of that respectable body known as the Wolfville Stranglers, otherwise a Vig'lance Committee; an' your guns was took so as to redooce the chances of hangin' you the same bein' some abundant, nacheral, to minimum. Now who be you? also, what's your little game? "'My name's Benjamin Glegg, responds old Glegg. 'I owns the Sunflower brand an' ranch.
And as he ended, his companions nodded soberly. "Plumb streak of light," they said. "Just nacheral crazy fool when it comes to running, that hoss is!"

Too swell for that. But a real-thing Mejum. A big one; one of the kind it comes to, nacheral. Spirit-rappin's! Somethin' fierce! My kitchen window is on the air-shaft. So's his. Many's the time in the still evenin's I've heard the rap-rap-rappin' on his window an' on the wall, but mostly on the window. Blip! out of the dark. It'd make you just hop!
"'Which females, says Old Man Enright, who's settin' thar at the time, an' partic'lar, young females, is a heap frivolous, nacheral. A rainbow will stampede most of 'em.

That's right; that's the way I feels; plumb religious at the mere sight of 'em.
"I don't feel no ways nacheral without havin' Bart around." The marshal made no farther objections, and having rolled himself in his blankets was almost immediately asleep and breathing heavily.

He patted the shaggy head lightly, and pointed towards the door.
"Git out of the saddle damn quick," growled Silent. "It ain't nacheral he'd let you ride him like he was a plough-hoss. An' if you've tried any fancy stunts, I'll " "Take it easy," said Purvis as Dan slipped from the saddle without showing the slightest anger. "Take it easy. You're a bum loser.
