After waiting on the train two or three hours, expecting every moment to start, we noticed a couple of staff officers supporting on each side the commanding general, and leading him to the car I was in. Getting him to the side of the car, they boosted him in at the door, procured a soldier's knapsack for him to sit on, and left him. He was so drunk he couldn't sit upright.
But he'd sobered up enough having slept quite a little, and soaked his head at the railroad tank to want to try all he knew how to spill himself out of his job. It took all the Hen could do the Hen had got up early and come down to the deepo a-purpose to attend to him and all the boys could do helping her, to get him up on that coach-box and boosted off out of town.
By that time, however, a kindly corporal had boosted me up over the rim of the basket and helped me to squeeze through the thick netting of guy lines; and there I was, standing inside that overgrown clotheshamper, which came up breast high on me and Brinkner und Meiningen was swinging himself nimbly in beside me. That basket was meant to hold but one man.
The shore rose abruptly from the bar to a height two feet above his head. He lifted and boosted Vic up, and seizing the long tufts of overhanging grass and thrusting his feet into the loops of willow roots, drew himself to the higher level and crept into a screen of low bushes.
As soon as they reached it West, still stiff from want of circulation in his cramped limbs, was boosted into the saddle. "It's going to be a good deal of a guess to find our way out of the Cache," Jack explained. "Even in the daytime it would take a 'Pache, but at night well, here's hoping the luck's good." They found it not so good as they had hoped.
"Nobody said you were," I shouted, and Bert Winton just had to hold me back, "but you wouldn't talk like that if Mr. Ellsworth was here, and you know you wouldn't. Do you suppose I'd let anybody say you weren't on the square? We're all in the one troop. But you boosted Skinny you used him. And in a crazy fit he went out and blamed near gave his life for you. He doesn't know two of the laws.
In the meantime George Butler, the Referee, took advantage of the situation and, with the assistance of several spectators, was boosted over the fence where he waited for some player to come and fall on the ball, which was fairly hidden in a ditch covered over with branches.
When they were for signing me again, at big money too, the little woman said: "'Don't you do it, Larry Moore; they're not your class. Just hold out a bit. "You know, Bob, how I signed then with the Giants, and how they boosted my salary at the end of that first year; but it was Fanny Montrose who made the contracts every time. We had the child then, and I was happy.
Now I've got to hunt a hallroom and begin scratching gravel." "But at least until you find a position." "No. I'm sure of something first pop, if old Grif is in town. You remember, I once told you all about him M. F. Griffith, my old engineer man who boosted me from a bum to a transitman. Whitest man that ever was! Last I heard, he'd located here in Chicago as a consulting engineer.
Others were distributed over the southern front. Three of the lighter and more slender of the band were "boosted" through the high west window into Moreno's domain.
