And I don't know Marrineal." "Upright, too; that one?" The sneer in Masters's heavy voice was palpable. "You consider that no newspaper can be upright," the lawyer interpreted.

"You could do it because your act placed you in worse danger," she told him. "Too many for me," Bob disclaimed. "I simply wasn't going to be bluffed out by that gang!" "That was it," said Amy wisely. "I know you better than you do yourself. You don't suppose," she cried, as a new thought alarmed her, "that Oldham has told the prosecuting attorney that your evidence would be valuable."
I don't see why I shouldn't rejoin at once if they will only let me. I joined them in an excellent tea. They spoke most highly of the hospital.

For one thing, you have a gift for narrative, and the portrait you drew of Carmen with a stroke or two was lifelike. Then, when you met and bluffed her into giving Daly away, you couldn't have taken a more effective line if you had been an ambassador. What do you think, Mrs. Stephen?" "Mr. Foster seems to have used all his advantages and the girl got a shock that found out her weak points.

Had these men arranged to deliver him into the hands of Clanton? Was he himself going to fall into the pit he had dug? "Gimme back my gun an' I'm not afraid of him or any of you," he bluffed.
"You need me to do anything you ain't got the nerve to do." "I got my duty to my company," Lanpher bluffed lamely. "Duty bedam. You ain't got the guts for a tough job, that's whatsa matter." This was rubbing it in. Lanpher plucked at the loose strings of his courage, and managed to draw out a faintly responsive twang. "I'll show you whether I got guts " he began.
