Directly in the way of the proverbial crow's flight lay King's Highway, which if I got through would put me at the ranch the first day, and back at camp the second; and I rather guessed that would surprise our worthy foreman not a little. I didn't see why it couldn't be done; surely old King wouldn't murder a man just for riding through that pass that would be bloody-minded indeed!
"What is it?" said Bosswinkel; "I'll adopt it, whatever it is." Leonhard said, "Did you ever see the play of 'The Merchant of Venice'?" "That's the piece," answered Bosswinkel, "where Devrient plays a bloody-minded Jew of the name of Shylock, who wants a pound of a merchant's flesh. Of course I've seen it, but what has that to do with the matter?"
'If it comes to that, I should say and I've often noticed that a real gentleman likes you all the better for speaking up 'If it comes to that, Lord, why did You put such bloody-minded pirates into the world? Now to my thinking" and I remember her rolling a leaf of tobacco as she said it "it's a great improvement to the mind to have been through the battle, whether you have won or lost; and that's why, when on earth, He chose the likes of us for company."
The old fellow cursed me roundly for an obstinate, bloody-minded young fool. "Give me a hug," he wound up by saying, "for blast me if you ain't a youngster after my own heart!" And he fell to and embraced me heartily, kissing me on both cheeks, and shedding tears plentifully; for he was three-parts drunk, and clearly looked upon me as a dead man.
By this time the other men of the party had gathered around, and I was compelled to repeat my tale, which excited both pity and interest in the breasts of the kind-hearted miners, who declared that the "cussed Kimanch ought to be wiped out." "Aye, every mother's son of them," added Ned, "for playing such tricks upon travelers, the bloody-minded heathen."
His pity was moved, but nevertheless he felt an abounding sense of relief and security, now, which revealed to him in a degree which he had not fully appreciated before how vast a weight of dread had been lying upon him since the day he lifted his voice against this bloody-minded outcast. Injun Joe's bowie-knife lay close by, its blade broken in two.
He then swore that he would kill him if he did not show him where his money was. Tom looked so wicked and so bloody-minded that the little man was quite frightened; so says he, "Come along with me a couple of fields off, and I'll show you a crock of gold."
"Your ladyship," said the old man, "had once a sister." "True; whom I loved as my own soul." "And a brother." "The bravest, the kindest, the most affectionate!" said Lady Bothwell. "Both these beloved relatives you lost by the fault of an unfortunate man," continued the stranger. "By the crime of an unnatural, bloody-minded murderer," said the lady.
Well, sir, I didn't think the boss orator of the day would be the first prisoner the joke certainly is on you!" "I never saw such bloody-minded ruffians! Keep them out and keep me in all I ask is to vindicate myself in the eyes of the world," said the judge. "Well," began the sheriff severely, "ain't it enough to make 'em bloody-minded? Any one of 'em might have taken your money and got stuck.
"Made in Germany, it says, and it shore looks like it. It's got little pins stickin' out of th' cylinder, like you had to swat it with a hammer or a rock, or somethin' to make it go off. Must be damn dangerous, to most anybody around. Looks more like a cactus than a six-shooter-gosh, it's a ten-shooter! I allus said them Dutchmen was bloody-minded cusses.
