But the voice of anger, in the half light overhead, broke down suddenly into an inarticulate gurgle. "Why, what's this?" said Pete in a flurry. "You're not crying though, Kate? Whatever am I saying to you, Kitty, woman? Here, here bash me on the head for a blockhead and an omathaun." And Pete was clambering up the wall by the side of the dairy window. "Get down, then," whispered Kate.
"I reckon ony cock may crouse on his own middenheed. Ye mind me of the clerk at Tickell, who could argify none at all agen the greet Geordie Fox, so he up and broke his nose wi' a bash of his family Bible." This final rejoinder proved too much for the minister, who rose, the repast being over, and stalked past Rotha into the adjoining chamber, where the widow and Willy sat in their sorrow.
This girl, this wholly charming and delightful young woman, was the monstrous being I had conjectured as the globe-trotting widow who had kidnapped and married my uncle! Not only had she married my uncle Bash and in due course buried him; she had been a widow when she married him!
He wants everything, damn him! He's got no sense of dealing. I'd like to bash his face!" "Well," I said, "what's to be done?" "Keep going," said my uncle. "I'll smash Boom yet," he said, with sudden savagery. "Nothing else?" I asked. "We got to keep going. There's a scare on. Did you notice the rooms? Half the people out there this morning are reporters.
He mastered himself with an effort; and, for the rest of the evening, was his usual cheery self. He teased Maggie into tears; chaffed stolid little Andrew; and bantered Sam'l Todd until that generally impassive man threatened to bash his snout for him. Yet it was with a great swallowing at his throat that, later, he turned down the slope for home.
"Come now, old 'ooman," said Slidder seriously, "if you go on jokin' like that you'll make me larf and spill your gruel p'raps let it fall bash on the floor. There!
But thou'rt a damned shark, Charlie, and if anybody 'ud give me a plug o' bacca for doing it, I'd bash thy face in." The other sniggered contentedly as he picked up his money. "A bet's a bet," said Charlie. He was clearly accustomed to an occasional violence of demeanour from Jos Myatt, and felt no fear. But he was wrong in feeling no fear.
"You stand back!" he blustered clutching the purse to his breast and snapping open the blade of a huge jack-knife; but before Old Bunk could intervene Big Boy had caught up a rock. "You drop that knife," he shouted fiercely, "or I'll bash out your brains with this stone!" And as the Ground Hog gazed into his battle-mad eyes he weakened and dropped the knife.
The one held back, but Bash sprang, and she met him in mid-air with the flaming weapon. There were sharp yelps of pain and swift odors of burning hair and flesh as he rolled in the dirt and the woman ground the fiery embers into his mouth. Snapping wildly, he flung himself sidewise out of her reach and in a frenzy of fear scrambled for safety.
Down the broad sweep of drive they went, the Old Un pouring forth fluent curses with every step, until they came to a powerful automobile from beneath which a pair of neatly gaitered legs protruded. "Joe!" cried the Old Un, apostrophising these legs, "Joe, stop bein' a crawlin' worm come out an' bash these perishers for me, like a good lad!"
