Ye lied readily enough: booze done for Silent long before Barry come along." "That right?" "I'll tell a man it is. Mind you, I don't say Barry ain't handy with his gun; but he's done a little and the gents have furnished the trimmin's. Look here, if Barry is the man-eater they say, why did he pick a time for comin' down when the sheriff was out of town?" "By God!" exclaimed Ronicky.
He's a good man some ways, Tex is. But he can't keep off the booze." Kicking his feet from the stirrups the man stood upright in his saddle and peered over the top of an intervening pile of lumber. "Yes, I thought so. His horse is over in front of the Headquarters. Him an' Cinnabar Joe's prob'ly holdin' a booze histin' contest of their own."
"Go to hell and take the trunk, the booze and the whole caboose with you, if you want to. I don't want none of it. I ain't hoggin' booze any more." "Ho, ho! Hear that," yelled the big, black-haired individual, "he ain't boozin'! The old swiller ain't boozin' and him keeps a keg o' whisky under his nose. "Ain't boozin' with common ginks like us, that's what he means. "Come on!
"I'm not telling you to buy anything. I'm only thinking of the obituaries. Ask the parson. I'm I'm addicted to 'em, like some people are to booze. But if you'd promise to keep open the old corner for them, why, I might come out and beg you to buy the Clarion, now it's going so cheap. Yep all on account of the obituaries!"
She was making the second when the red-haired person came back with an empty cup. "I forgot to explain," he said, "that beef tea and red pepper's the treatment for our young friend in there. After a man has been burning his stomach daily with a quart or so of raw booze " "I beg your pardon," said Jane coolly. Booze was not considered good form on the hill the word, of course.
The trio craned forward and made minute examination. Slavin ejaculated an oath and glanced up at Yorke almost remorsefully. "I take ut all back," he said. Meeting the coroner's blank, enquiring stare he added: "Booze, Docthor we thought ut might be. . . . Yeh know Larry!" The physician of Cow Run nodded understandingly. Slavin bent again and made close scrutiny of the bullet-hole.
He knows we furnished the booze to his Indians, and he will yell his head off to the Mounted, and we will have them dropping in on us all the winter. In the meantime leave the liquor where it is. Don't bring a gallon of it into this clearing. It will keep, and we can't take chances with the Mounted.
Says I: 'I'll go back Eastern Shore way, and see if there's any niggers to git. So I tramped it from Somers's Cove to Princess Anne, an' sluiced my gob at Kingston and the Trappe till I felt noddy with the booze, and lay down in the churchyard to snooze it off.
The way he spoke the things strengthened her confidence. And his arm held her so close! "I'll tell you, Kate," he added. "You can easy enough hire a fellow to kill a man. But you can't really hire one to hate a man. And if he doesn't really hate him, he won't be as keen on your job as you'd be yourself. These hired men will booze once in awhile or go to sleep, maybe.
He spat into the dirt of the cellar floor. "Water!" He snorted disgustedly. "Casey Ryan with the devil an' all scart outa him, thinkin' he had ownership of a load uh booze an' hop sufficient t' hang 'im!" His hand slid into his trousers pocket, reaching for the comforting plug of tobacco. "Stuck up an' robbed is what happens t' Casey. You can ask anybody if it ain't highway robbery!"
