Coldly he eyed Hardman and then the greasy dust-caked face of Purcell. He could catch only the steely speculation in Purcell's evil eyes. He read there that, if the man had possessed the nerve, he would have drawn on him at the first. Meanwhile Blinky had come up beside Pan and a moment later Mac New.
And we'll tip two or three other fellows to join in, without, of course, getting a crowd." "I'll try it," nodded Purcell. "Though I can't guess how it will turn out. Of course, if Rip gives us the black scowl we'll have to conclude that no help is wanted." It was tried, however, at recess. Purcell went about it with the tact that often comes to the easy going and big hearted.
Whenever Purcell was out of the way and customers were slack, he invariably found his way to this spot in the upper room.
Anyway I saved him one day from being strung up. That was on the Powder River, when I was riding for Hurley's X Y Z outfit. They were a hard lot. And Mac's guilt wasn't clear to me. Anyway, I got him out of a bad mess, on condition he'd leave the country." "Ahuh! Wal, I see. But it's a shore gamble he's one of Hardman's outfit now, same as Purcell." "Reckon he was.

Purcell stood generally for 'the enemy; and to Purcell his half-mad fancy attributed most of his misfortunes. It was Purcell who had undermined his business, taken away his character, and driven him back to drink. David did not believe much of it, and told him so. Then, roused to wrath, the young man would speak his mind plainly as to Dora's sufferings and Dora's future.
But how shall I name them all? they were there by dozens, and all tremendous in their way. There was Bulldog Hudson and fearless Scroggins, who beat the conqueror of Sam the Jew.

There was Purcell, who could never conquer till all seemed over with him.
