For it was impossible not to perceive that he was not joking as he prevented Macauley from reaching his wife. "Great snakes! he's in earnest!" howled Macauley, stopping short. "He won't let me kiss his wife, when I'm the husband of her sister. Go 'way, man, and cool that red head of yours. Anybody'd think I was going to elope with her!"
Anybody'd think she was somebody near and dear that you hadn't laid eyes on for ten years. And she was here only yesterday. Do you love her so much you have to hug her every time you see her?" Gertrude laughed. "Do you think I do?" she asked. "I don't know what to think. It's a mighty sudden love, that's all I've got to say. Do you want her here ALL the time?"
"Cayuse was once his chain-man." McCoppet was tremendously excited, though apparently as cold as ice, as he swiftly thought out the niceties of his own and fate's arrangements. "Cayuse's wife once worked for Mrs. Culver, cooking and washing." "Say, anybody'd swaller that," reflected the lumberman aloud. "But five thousand dollars ain't enough."
Then Phemie suddenly broke into a constrained giggle, which she however quickly smothered as she had the accordion, and with the same look of mischievous distress. "I'm astonished at you, Phemie," said Clementina in a deep contralto voice, which seemed even deeper from its restraint. "You don't seem to have any sense. Anybody'd think you never had seen a stranger before."
You people make me sick," cried Jim, rising and making for his room. "Anybody'd think you'd been insulted." When he had gone Mrs. Knight asked, accusingly. "Lorelei, are you IN LOVE?" "No. Why?" "You've said some queer things lately. You've worried me. I hope you'll never be tempted to do anything so to be foolish. Just look at the girls who have made silly matches; they all go back to work.
Well, anybody'd do that." "They ain't nothin' to drink but belly-wash in this town," said Andy boyishly. "But you come along down to the store an' I'll buy." "I'll go you! I see you're ridin' for the Concho." "Uh-huh, a year." Pete walked beside this new companion and Pete was thinking hard. "What's your name?" he queried suddenly. "White Andy White. What's yours?"
"Everybody has called on us," she added with reflective pride. "Principally since Mr. Crozier came," added Kitty. "It's funny, isn't it, how he made people respect him before they knew who he was?" "He would make Satan stand up and take off his hat, if he paid Hades a visit," said Mrs. Tynan admiringly. "Anybody'd do anything for him." Kitty eyed her mother closely.
The furniture looked like them, in fact. Agnes was outwardly calm, but her real distraction did not escape Mrs. Kinney's hawklike eyes. "Well, I declare if you hain't put the butter on in one o' my blue chainy saucers! Now you know I don't allow that saucer to be took down by nobody. I don't see what's got into yeh. Anybody'd s'pose you never see any comp'ny b'fore-wouldn't they, Pa?"
Joy bowed in her prim, cityish way, and Sarah and Delia were so much astonished thereat that they forgot to bow at all, and Delia stared rudely at her black dress. There was an awkward silence. "Why don't you talk, somebody?" broke out Gypsy, getting desperate. "Anybody'd think we were three mummies in a museum."
He claimed they was two-seventy-five still owin', and I didn't have but about fifty cents, so I couldn't pay it. So he wouldn't let me in. Natchally, anybody'd feel bad, like that, 'specially when a man told 'em he'd hold their kid's clothes an' things till they paid which they couldn't!"
