"Better not go after her. Her father was a fightin' preacher, and she's well, begosh! she's a chip of the old pulpit." And he rolled his eye towards the door.
"I set 'em up drinks to gain time." "Do you want me there?" said Clallam. "Begosh, no! That would mix things worse." "Can't you make them go away?" Elizabeth inquired. "Me and them, ye see, ma'am, we hev a sort of bargain they're to git certain ferryin'. I can't make 'em savvy how I took charge of you. If you want them " He paused. "We want them!" exclaimed Elizabeth.
'Ain't we hit the right spot? Well, that's what you hev hit. You're all right, and the spot is hunky-dory, and it's the durned old boat hez made the mistake, begosh!

Then Mr. Diggs, still gazing at Bertie, beckoned to him with a speaking eye and a crooked finger; and as he beckoned, Bertie approached like a conspirator and sat down close to him. "Begosh!" whispered Mr. Diggs. "Unmitigated."
"Then what was he after?" said Mart. "Stealin'. But he figured he'd come again." "He didn't like my gun much." "Guns always skeers him when he don't know the parties shootin'. That's his dumbness. Maybe he thought I was after him; he's jest that distrustful. Begosh! we'll have the laugh on him when he finds he run from a little girl." "He didn't wait to see who he was running from," said Mart.
