I knew you was some bull-haided, but I thought you had a lick o' sense left." "Wisht I had," said Dave miserably. "Well, what's done's done. No use cryin' over the bust-up. We'd better fix up whatever's left from the smash. First off, we'll get a lawyer, I reckon." "I gotta li'l' money left twenty-six dollars," spoke up Dave timidly. "Maybe that's all he'll want."
L. W.'s auto' reached Ironwood Springs, where Rimrock had made his old camp, while the sun was still two hours high. From the Springs to the dome, that great "bust-up" of porphyry which stood square-topped and sheer against the sky, there was a single trail full of loose, shaly rocks that mounted up through a notch in the rim.
Then, with that nasty grin of his: "You know, I'm looking after things for her since the bust-up." "No, I didn't know," said I curtly, suppressing my instant curiosity. "What does Mrs. Langdon want?" "To see you for just a few minutes whenever it is convenient." "If Mrs.
"The mightiest bust-up the world has ever known. We're in for it, Avery; in for the very deuce of a row." His voice vibrated suddenly. He stopped as though to check some headlong force that threatened to carry him away. Avery stood still, feeling a sick horror of impending disaster at her heart. "What can you mean?" she said.
"Oh, don't I, though!" snarled Dakota Joe. "I know who to thank for my bust-up you and that Hammond man. Yes, sir-ree!" "You are quite wrong," Ruth said, calmly. "But nothing I can say will convince you, I presume." "You can't soft-sawder me, if that's what you mean," and Dakota Joe absorbed another mighty mouthful. Ruth could not fail to wonder if he ever chewed his food.
"I say, Mildred, this is no place for either of us, is it?" "I'd rather be where there's food," confessed she. "You think it's a joke, but I assure you Oh, you WERE joking about YOUR bust-up?" "No, indeed," she assured him. "I walked out a while ago, and I couldn't go back if I would and I don't think I would if I could." "That's foolish. Better go back," advised he.
"Why does he go after me?" Haney asked, irritably. "I'm out of it. 'Tis like the fool tenderfoot. Don't he know I had nothing to do with his bust-up?" "He don't seem to or else he's so locoed he's forgot it. All I know is he's full of some pizen notion against you, and I thought I'd put you on your guard." They talked on about this a few minutes, and then Slater rose, leaving Haney to himself.
"Waal, I run a taxicab onct," was the reply, in a low tone, however, "but that's all the chauffering I ever done. You see, I went broke in San Antone, and " "All right; all right," snapped Ralph impatiently. "Say, you people, you'd better get out of the car, while I tinker this up." "Is it a bad bust-up?" puffed Buck Bradley, clambering out.
Then there's a big bust-up and a row that gets into the papers, and a lot of chaps are expelled, you know." "Always the wrong un's; don't forget that. Have a cup of cocoa, Padre?" said McTurk with the kettle. "No, thanks; I'm smoking. Always the wrong 'uns? Pro-ceed, my Stalky." "And then" Stalky warmed to the work "everybody says, 'Who'd ha' thought it? Shockin' boys!
"Nice, comfortable, elevating palliness with you; and a right down rollicking bust-up occasionally with the ladies of the unpretending school of wild oats." "I want my giant for the present to be satisfied with his palliness with me and his work. Do you think he will?" "As I haven't seen him I can't say.
