There was another rush to the door, and there, galloping down the trail, was Buffle and another man. The boys stared at each other, but said nothing their gift of swearing was not equal to the occasion. Steadily they stared at the two men, until Buffle, reining back a little, pointed his pistol threateningly.
Buffle, with the smile peculiar to the successful business man; Lawyer Scott, with the air of a man who had so much to say that time could not possibly suffice in which to tell it all; Squire Woodhouse, who was in search of a good market for hay; Principal Alleman, who was in chase of an overdue shipment of text-books; and Mr.
"Not quite yit yer got him here in time, Buffle," said Muggy. "Thank the Lord!" said Buffle. His lips were very familiar with the name of the Lord, but they had never before used it in this sense. Then, while several men were getting ready to ask Buffle where he found his man Californians never ask questions in a hurry there came from the direction of Buffle's shanty the sound of a subdued cry.
I've had a new taste uv decency lately, an' I'm goin' to see ef I can't stan' it for a stiddy diet. The chap over to the shanty sez he ken git me somethin' to do, an' ennythin's better'n gamblin', drinkin', and fightin'. "It's agin the law to kerry shootin'-irons there, Buffle," suggested one. "Yes, an' they got a new kind uv a law there, to keep a man from takin' his bitters," said another.
"Don't trouble yourself to do that. You must take care of Sir Raffle Buffle, you know." "I shan't go near Sir Raffle Buffle to-morrow, nor yet the next day. You mustn't suppose that I am afraid of Sir Raffle Buffle." "You are only afraid of Lily Dale." From all which it may be seen that Mrs Arabin and John Eames had become very intimate on their way home.
"Hez he got both of his eyes an' ears, mum?" inquired one of the men. "Uv course he hez, you fool!" replied Buffle, savagely. "The lady's husband's a gentleman, an' 'tain't likely he's, been chawed or gouged." "I ax parding, mum," said the offender, in the most abject manner.
In your position now of course you hear all the news." "Sir Raffle Buffle has got a new pair of shoes. I don't know that for certain, but I guess it from the time it took him to put them on." "Ah! now you're quizzing. That's always the way with you gentlemen when you get a little up in the world. You don't think women are worth talking to then, unless just for a joke or so."
Jodderel; "any honest expression of opinion is welcome here." "If such were not the case," said Mr. Primm, "a rival class would not have been formed." "And none of us would have learned how many sides there are to a great question," said. Mr. Buffle. "Larger liberty wouldn't be possible," said Builder Stott.
Sir Raffle Buffle was throned in his great oak arm-chair at the head of a long table in a very large room; and by him, at the corner of the table, was seated one of the assistant secretaries of the office. Another member of the Board was also at work upon the long table; but he was reading and signing papers at some distance from Sir Raffle, and paid no heed whatever to the scene.
He had been perhaps a little abrupt in his mode of informing Sir Raffle Buffle that there was a pressing cause for his official absence, and Sir Raffle had replied to him that no private pressure could be allowed to interfere with his public duties. "I must go, Sir Raffle, at any rate," Johnny had said; "it is a matter affecting my family, and must not be neglected."
