"I've fooled long enough with you, and we'll end this business here. Come here, at once, or I'll put a bullet through your head." "Don't shoot! Don't shoot!

"What d' yer want?" replied the proprietor of the house, who was as completely "demoralized" by the scene as the rebel soldier himself. "Put your hand into this man's pocket, and take out his pistol.
If he returned by the way he came, the country was filled with rebel soldiers, and he could hardly expect to pass through their lines without being captured. Difficult and dangerous as the route by the Shenandoah appeared, he decided to adopt it. Joe Burnap proposed that they should have supper and opened the bag which he had filled with such eatables as he could hastily procure on leaving home.
Burnap may do what she can to help you." The prisoner sullenly attended the woman into the house, and Tom followed as far as the front door. "Now, what am I gwine to do?" said Joe. "You've got me into a right smart scrape." "I thought I had got you out of one," replied Tom. "Do you intend to remain here?" "Sartin not, now. I must clear."
