With the crash of the shot the dog doubled up and dropped in his tracks. The boys scattered and ran. Pete cut loose in their general direction. They ran faster. The older folk, chattering and scolding, backed into the store. "Montoya's boy was loco. He would kill somebody!" Some of the women crossed themselves. The storekeeper, who knew Pete slightly, ventured out.
The horses had strayed nearly a mile from camp, and when we found them they were cutting up as if they had been eating loco weed for a month. When we came up to them, we saw that they were scared. These horses couldn't talk, but they told us that just over the hill was something they were afraid of.
The Roman carnival in three moods Apples of Sodom Poor, battered, wilted, stained hearts A living protest and scourge Dulce est desipere in loco A rollicking world of happy fools Endless sunshine of some sort Greenwich Fair was worth a hundred of it They thundered past, never drawing rein "Senza moccolo!"

"Are you going to keep him in this country or ride him back?" "Wall, I'm h'yah to stay, and I guess he stays with me." "What are you going to feed him on? You can't get timothy or beans or oats out here. He couldn't keep up on prairie hay; and, if you did try it, he'd get the loco weed."
