"Uncle John, you're a peach! I'll break rock on the streets if you say so! You're a peach!" "Well," said Mr. Starkweather, uncomfortably. "If everybody else's goin' to bawl, I guess it'll have to be contagious.... Only when you get back, you're both goin' to pay the piper. I'm goin' to make Henry earn his salt, whether he's got it in him or not; I'm goin' to make him crawl.
When I say they are associated with its silence I should immediately add that they are associated also with its sound. Among themselves they are an extraordinarily talkative company. They chatter at the <i>traghetti</i>, where they always have some sharp point under discussion; they bawl across the canals; they bespeak your commands as you approach; they defy each other from afar.
Come you this night here to listen to funeral estimates. Don't you make me bawl this in your department, Annie, and in your office laundry, Jane." From the street door he journeyed by himself to Balham, and habiting his face with grief, he related to Mr. Ward how Jacob died. "He passed in my arms," he said; "very gently willingly he gave back the ghost.
Beryl walked to her and very quietly gathered her into her young arms. "Don't look so scared, Mom, dear. Oh, don't cry! Why, I'm near crying myself! After I've told you all that has happened I shall just bawl. I'm too dreadfully happy. Sit down here, Mom, and hold my hand tight. Wait I must take my things off first." In a twinkling she had her stage "set" for her surprise.
In it, above the crowd, appeared the jockey with the green jacket, his cap well over his eyes. There was an instant hush. Then English and Americans, bookies and backers, began to bawl against each other. "Are you a gal?" screamed some one in the crowd. "No, I ain't," came the shrill, defiant answer. The voice did not satisfy the crowd. "Take off your cap, Miss!" yelled another.
I remember seeing an entire company marching with muskmelons pinned on their bayonets, all laughing and excited; and I heard General Sullivan bawl at them: "You damned unmilitary rascals, do you mean to open fire on 'em with vegetables?" Everybody was laughing, and the General grinned as Hand's bugle-horns played us in.
Says one woman: "Danny, you seen him do it in the blacksmith shop?" I nodded. "But how did he get in?" sings out another woman. "The door was locked on the outside with a padlock jest now when I come by. He couldn't of killed himself in there and locked the door on the outside." I didn't see how he could of done that myself, so I begun to bawl agin and said nothing at all.
Mother said where in the world are you going George, and he said things is come to a pretty pass if a boy cant go and hear his father make a speach without being banged round by a policeman. i am going down to knock the heads off every policeman there. and he reeched for his vest. mother said George, dont you go near the hall, and father said he cood lick anny 2 men on the police force easy and he would show them how to slam people round and he reeched for his coat, and Keene and Cele and Georgia began to bawl again to think he wood get hurt and aunt Sarah and mother said you had better not go George, and father said he wood give them more fun in 5 minits than they had seen in a political rally in 5 years and he reeched for his boots and mother said what will they think of you after you have sent word that you are too sick to make a speach, to see you come rushing into the hall and go punching the policemen and father had got on 1 boot and when she said that he began to look kinder sick and said, thunder that is so. and then his headake got wirse and he gave me a twenty five cent scrip and Keene and Cele and Georgie ten cents each and he went to bed and so did we.
"D n my eyes, if you call this start my timbers, brother look ye, d'ye see a lousy, lubberly, cowardly son of a among the breakers, d'ye see lost my steerage way split my binnacle; bawl away O! d n all arrantry give me a tight vessel, d'ye see, brother mayhap you may n't snatch my sea-room and a spanking gale odds heart, I'll hold a whole year's smite my limbs; it don't signify talking."
I doubt whether without the royal request he ever would have done so. But in doing so he, as Americans say, "struck lucky." Throughout Western Europe you have only to bawl the word "religion" and your fortune is made; in America it is the same; on the two continents innumerable fortunes have been made by bawling the word "religion."
