Hennage, raising an admonitory forefinger, "our motto is 'Keep off the grass." "Oh, I won't walk on your darned old grass" Carey retorted. "I'll just step between it." They shook hands in friendly fashion, and Carey hurried away. Mr. Hennage stared after him. "Sassy as a badger" he murmured. "I can't bluff that hombre.
