'I say, Charteris, said MacArthur, 'who the deuce am I to put half instead of Graham? 'Rogers used to play half in his childhood, I believe. But, I say, did you ever see such a scrag? Can't you protest, or something? 'My dear chap, how can I? It's on our own ground. These Bargee beasts are visitors, if you come to think of it. I'd like to wring the chap's neck who did it.
What business have louts like you to come blundering up the river, and spoil our races?" And Fitzurse, confident in superior numbers, gave emphasis to the question by knocking off the man's cap. The bargee was a strongly-built, stupid, healthy-looking young man, of some twenty-three years old, who, from being slow of passion was all the more terrible when aroused.
Hard at work, stand hundreds of strong and bare armed women, who scrub and wring their linen, while they sing and reply to the banter of passing bargee or canotier. If the sun is shining and the water is clear, the blue cotton dresses of the women contrast prettily with white linen and bare arms busily employed.
Charteris, you are a fool to go rotting about out of bounds like this. 'Nay, dry the starting tear, said Charteris cheerfully. 'In the first place, I shouldn't get kept in on a Thursday anyhow. I should be shoved into extra on Saturday. Also, I shrewdly conveyed to the Bargee the impression that I was at Rutton by special permission. 'He's bound to know that that can't be true, said Tony.
'cos he would so like to be a knight and fight a dragon and marry a beautiful princess. But he takes a more practical view of life when he reaches seven, and would prefer to grow up be a bargee, and earn a lot of money. Maybe this is the consequence of falling in love, which he does about this time with the young lady at the milk shop aet. six.
Still, I was pretty busy at the time, and wasn't paying much attention to anything, except that long, thin bargee with the bowler. I wish those men would hit straight. It's beastly difficult to guard a round-arm swing. My right ear feels like a cauliflower. Does it look rum?" "Beastly. But what about this? You can't swear to Sheen then?" "No. Better give him the benefit of the doubt.
Well, the night Jock MacTavish was there something went wrong a sofa was out of its place, or a bolster had been forgotten, or a rope wouldn't work, I don't know what it was and the language that woman indulged in while she was in the act of dying would have disgraced a bargee. Jock was in a stage-box and heard every filthy word of it.
"And though he had wronged me and wrecked my life, I couldn't help admiring his grit; for the boy was no match for me, and he knew it too, though he never flinched. "'I've come from New York here to talk with you, Paul Bargee, I said. "'You've a right to. "'I have, I said, 'and I want to have an understanding with you now, if you have the time, sir, I said, and looked at the ground again.
Who wants to stay at home with a lot of little brats, if you can have a dozen men a week standing you dinners, and mauling you like a bargee, and' 'Elise! 'There's the water getting near the boil. Elise rose with a strange little laugh and looked at a yellow silk stocking which dangled over the side of a wicker table.
I'd pity the girl who was linked for life to a bargee like Tuppy Glossop." And I emitted a hard laugh one of the sneering kind. "I always thought you were such friends," said Angela. I let go another hard one, with a bit more top spin on it than the first time: "Friends? Absolutely not. One was civil, of course, when one met the fellow, but it would be absurd to say one was a friend of his.
