"If you'd let me say something," he said, trying to keep his throat clear, "I'd like to tell you " "It's the best thing, sonny," said the man in the sailor suit; "you needn't be afraid of squealing. How old are you?" "Seventeen," said Tom, "but it wasn't squealing I was thinking about. I ain't a-scared, if that's what you think."
His companion looked up: "He shore is, an' he's right about this rustler business, too. But we'll look around for a day or so an' then yu raise dust for th' Lake. I'll go back to th' ranch an' get things primed, so there'll be no time lost when we get th' word." "I'm sorry I went an' said what I did about me takin' th' trail he was a-scared of," confessed Red, after a pause.
"Give it to her. Don't be a-scared." He pulled down the throttle-lever himself. My sudden roaring was mingled with frightened outcries from Todd. "Stop! Wait a minute! Whoa! Help!" Fortunately for my radiator, the lamp-post into which he steered me was poorly rooted.
"He won't touch me. He's a-scared of my light." And then Freddie Firefly flitted away. He found Solomon Owl easily enough. He had heard Solomon's Wha-wha, whoo-ah! booming from the edge of the woods. And he soon persuaded Solomon to fly down into the meadow. Solomon Owl sailed above the waving grass, while Freddie Firefly spoke to Jennie Junebug. She liked his scheme.
"Some time it would come to that," said Mary Warren, trying to dry her eyes. "It's the only way fair to us both." "Putting it that way, now!" said Sim Gage, wisely, "putting it that way, I'm here to say I ain't a-scared to do nothing that's best fer you. And I want to say right now and here, I didn't mean no harm to you.
"I ain't a-scared of any such breed of chunker as Rack Slimson," said she, calmly. "I can manage him my own self. You goin' back to Farewell, Racey?" "Right now." "Then I'll be going with you." "You'll do no such a thing. There's no sense in yore running into trouble thataway. You'll come in to Farewell after me and from another direction." "Shore, I was going to.
"While you were searching," Tom went on, hesitating, but still showing something of his old stolid manner, "I wasn't a-scared, but I was thinking I had to think about something before I could decide what I ought to do." "All right, sonny," said the man in the sailor clothes. "I'm glad you know what's best for you. Out with it. You've got a key to that porthole, eh? Now where is it?"
I aint a-scared about that only if he's alive and well; yes, sir. Well, good-evenin', sir. Yes, sir; I think I'll come to the mission nex' Sunday and I'll bring the baby, will I? All right, sir. Well, so long, sir. Take care of yourself, sir." What a word that was! It echoed in his ear all the way home: "Take care of yourself."
"I gin'rally take the short cut through the narrers," replied the Captain, "but I thought you mightn't like the breakers on the shoals, so I'm goin' 'round the p'int flat." "Huh! I ain't a-scared of breakers. Can't be too rough for me. Wisht 'twould blow to beat the band." "Maybe 'twill by and by. Pretty toler'ble slick now, though."
"Why, he ain't a-scared of nothin'." "He got back at yu about them watermelons, so what's th' difference?" Asked Frenchy. "He don't owe yu nothin'." An hour later they searched the Devil's Rocks, but found no rustlers. Filling their canteens at a tiny spring and allowing their mounts to drink the remainder of the water, they turned toward Hell Arroyo, which they reached at nightfall.
