Ah, there, Patty, you're blushing! I feared as much! Oh, Patty, DO you like him?" "'Course I like him. He's a jolly chap, and we're good chums." "But is that all? Patty, tell me; I won't tell." "There's nothing to tell, Mona. I like Little Billee a whole lot, but I'm not in love with him, if that's what you mean." "Yes, that's what I mean. I hoped you were." "Well, I'm not.
So forget it, my apple blossom, and remember only that Little Billee is your friend, who would do anything in the world for you." "You're an awfully nice man," said Patty, not coyly, but sincerely, as she laid her hand on his arm a moment. "Now you HAVE told me what you think of me!" cried Farnsworth, gaily, and taking the little hand he held it lightly clasped in his own.
"Well!" remarked Miss Patricia Fairfield, aloud. "Well! Hooray for you, Little Billee! I didn't know you had it in you to act like that! But" and her face clouded a little "I suppose your head is so full of Kitty Morton that you don't care what becomes of Patty Fairfield! H'm." Patty sat still for some time, thinking over this new episode.
Oh, Little Billee, I'm so glad I picked you out for my mate " "I picked you out, you mean. Why, the first moment I saw you, I " "You kissed me! Yes, you did, you bad man! I wonder I ever spoke to you again!" "But I kissed you by mistake that time. I'd no idea who you were." "I know it. And you've no idea who I am, now!" "That's true, sweetheart.
I resigned myself to my fate. Song followed song, until at last even my friend of the flints struck up the ballad of Little Billee, whose lugubrious refrain seemed to 'set the table in a roar'; but to me it will always be associated with sickening heartache. As soon as the rain ceased I left the hotel and went to the room in the little town the landlord had engaged for me.
This was what Brooke said, and then he turned off into a song: "Then this maiden wiped her eyelids With her pocket-handkerchee; Though I grow a yaller spinster I will stick to my Billee! Rite follalol-lol-lol-lol-lido, Rite follalol-lol-lol-lol-lay." After this there followed another prolonged silence. Talbot was now the first to speak.
Unless you are willing to accept our teachings and do your best to profit by them, I am going to send you back home! For much as I want to be kind and helpful to my young cousin, I will not even try, if it makes my wife any trouble or embarrassment." "Oh, pshaw, Little Billee, leave Azalea to me, I can manage her." "You can't, Patty, without her cooperation and willingness.
"Oh, I reckon we can do it ourselves," and Bud seemed to regret mentioning the name of his favorite. "Just what are you aimin' t' do, son?" asked Billee, as Snake and Yellin' Kid rode up, ready for their day's work out on the range among the cattle. "I don't exactly know, but it's going to be something and something hard!" asserted Bud. "Are there any clues over there, Billee, to give us a lead?"
"You've simply made that girl over," Elise said to Patty, as the two spoke of Azalea's growing popularity. Patty sighed. "I don't know," she said, thoughtfully. "There's something queer about Azalea. Little Billee has said so from the first, and now I begin to see it, too." "She is queer," assented Elise, "but she's so much nicer than she was at first. Ray Gale is very devoted to her."
"What do 'ee want, Billee?" he inquired, going up to the trapper. "I want ye to hold this," answered Garey, offering him a round white shell, about the size of a watch, a species of which there were many strewed over the ground. "It's a bet, boyee?" "No, it is not." "Ain't wastin' yur powder, ar yur?" "I've been beat shootin'," replied the trapper, in an undertone, "by that 'ar Injun."
