"The house is full of niggers! the house is full of niggers!" cried several voices "Shoot them! kill them!" and immediately several shots were fired at the window by the mob below. "Don't fire yet," said Mr. Walters to one of the young men who had his hand upon a gun. "Stop awhile. When we do fire, let it be to some purpose let us make sure that some one is hit."
You'll be as mad as a hornet when I tell you, it's that simple; and for the life of me I can't understand why you don't already know it." "And if it don't work?" was the dubious query. "If it don't work, you don't pay." "Well, shoot it along," the lion man surrendered. "Wire the cage," said Collins. At first the man could not comprehend; then the light began to break on him. "You mean . . . ?"
There they found sympathetic and admiring audiences. They reviled the committee collectively and singly; bragged that they would shoot Coleman, Truett, Durkee, and some others at sight; flourished weapons, and otherwise became so publicly and noisily obstreperous that the committee decided they needed a lesson.
And I shouldn't have " Janet stopped. "But you loved him?" "Yes, I did. For a long time, after I left him, I thought I didn't, I thought I hated him, and when I found out what had happened to me that night I came to you I got my father's pistol and went to the mill to shoot him. I was going to shoot myself, too." "Oh!" Mrs. Maturity gasped.
It is said he is not a ferocious animal if unmolested, and will not attack you if you let him alone, unless it is a she bear with cubs, or you shoot at them and wound them. They are very hard to kill. To be hit by a bullet has very little effect on them, unless hit in a vital spot.
"As if we could possibly have as good a time anywhere else as we could at Wild Rose Lodge. Think of being in a real hunting lodge out in the woods away from everybody!

"I admit we should probably have more fun at the lodge than we could anywhere else.
If you are successful, you will be the most popular man in Ballarat, and there is no knowing what is in store for you." "What weapons are we to use?" Fred asked. "Revolvers, to be sure. I've promised to let the fellow use mine for the sake of placing him on an equality with you. I see that you have a revolver, so that I know you will be able to shoot better with it than a strange pistol.
The flying fires will burn down our village, and there is no retreat. The guns that shoot without loading carry very far. We are as water before them. We are in the hands of the white chief, and our bones will feed the crows. What will my brothers do?" There was still a profound silence, and then he continued: "The Raven is a great chief, and he will tell them what to do.
"No, no, Norman; I am convinced of your courage and discretion, but I cannot allow you to risk your life for such an object," said his father. "But I run no risk of losing my life," answered Norman; "they would not venture to kill me." "They would not if they knew who you were; but finding a spy in their neighbourhood, they might shoot you down without inquiry," observed Captain Mackintosh.
"But even if I had no right arm at all, I could ride and shoot, and when it came to yelling I'd be there too." "Very good. If you think you can stand it, go on." "Thank you, sir. I knew you wouldn't go back on old Carey. I've been in every muss my troop has been in, and nobody ever hinted that I didn't do my duty."
