Down to twenty-five thousand dollars and my Ford auty-mo-bile and Bill's goin' to buy that off me as soon as he looks her over to see what's busted and what ain't." Dwyer laughed again as he unlocked the door behind the overalls and jumpers and disappeared into his bank.
Whenever anything had happened to his Ford auty-mo-bile between Pinnacle and Lund, Casey never failed to trace the direct cause, which had always been external rather than internal, save that time when he had walked in and bought a new car without out probing into the vitals of the other.
So in time it happened that Casey was driving a stage of his own from Pinnacle down to Lund, in Nevada, and making boast that his four horses could beat the record the month's record, mind of any dog-gone auty-mo-bile that ever infested the trail. Infest is a word that Casey would have used often had he known its dictionary reputation.
He suggested an insurance policy to Casey, not half so jokingly as he tried to sound. Casey turned and gave him a pale blue, unwinking stare. "Say! Never you mind gettin' out insurance on this auty-mo-bile. What you wanta do is insure the cars that's liable to meet up with me in the trail." Bill saw the sense of that, too, and said no more about insuring Casey.
If he meets up with Miss Fortune, he'll tame her, Bill. And this little Ford auty-mo-bile is goin' to eat outa my hand. I don't give a cuss if she does git sore and ram her spark plugs into her carburetor now and agin. She'll know who's boss, Bill. I learnt it to the burros, and what you can learn a burro you can learn a Ford, take time enough."
"You trade," he stated flatly. Bill backed a little. "Oh, all right, if that's the way yuh feel. What yuh askin' for the four just as they stand?" "Me? A Ford auty-mo-bile. I told yuh that, Bill. And I want you to put on the biggest horn that's made; one that can be heard from here to Pinnacle and back when I turn 'er loose.
