Or Lieutenant? Johnny Shannon—now he was a lieutenant with Howard’s Rangers." Callie gave Drew a shrewd measuring look. "Sergeant." Drew corrected automatically and then asked: "How did you know I’d been in the army?" "Well, you wear them two shootin’ irons army style, belted high an’ butt to front. Must use a flip-hand draw as do all th’ hoss soldiers.
And they toiled on till they reached the spot where the cold water bubbled out from a pebbly hollow under an old tree. "We must cool off before we drink," Libbie warned them. "We'll bathe our faces and hands, and sit here for a while. We are so overheated we ought not to drink right away." "It's very hard not to," said Callie, "but I suppose you are right."
Dimple realized that they were moving further and further away from home, as she saw the objects on the shore grow smaller and smaller. The big tears began to gather in her eyes. "Don't cry, dear," said Callie, soothingly. "We'll get home all right." "But suppose we shouldn't.
The landlady of one of these houses was the one we met on the train, when Callie accompanied me to San Francisco on that important trip. At this time a gospel-tent was pitched in the rear of the court-house and city hall. Each night there congregated large numbers of people, most of whom came from the humble walks of life. In that precious little tabernacle many souls sought and found salvation.
Callie knew all, with the exception of the young girl, and called each by name; but, as usual, they did not recognize her, and, in the same manner as heretofore described, had to be convinced, whilst she again rehearsed her wonderful experience. Presently she said: "I'm going to hunt up some of the others, and I'm going to ask this lady to sing for you while I am gone.
"Walk him up and down here by the corral." The Kentuckian handed the reins to Callie. "Got something I have to do." Drew went directly to the Four Jacks. This time the cantina was filled, with a double row of the thirsty demanding attention at the bar. But Topham was seated at a table with Don Lorenzo and Zack Cahill of the stage line. The Kentuckian went over to them.
At the first opportunity the frock was washed out, and really looked much better. "I wish I could do my stockings, too," said Dimple, "but I couldn't go barefoot. Mamma wouldn't like me to, although I'd like to." So this part of her dress had to remain as it was, and the girls took up their line of march again. "I am so thirsty I don't know what to do," said Callie.
A little limp maybe, but it's better that than muddy. I hope your mamma isn't very much worried. I don't believe it is so late after all." And although it seemed to Dimple that she had been days away from home, she was surprised to find that it was only about four o'clock, when hot and hungry they arrived at home. Callie made her excuses and apologies as contritely as possible, and Mrs.
I haven't the slightest ambition to know more than that about your Aunt Callie. If my brain really had been acting properly I would never have dismantled your room. I would have known that you could not endure her, and that you would come home just as you should. It's all right, John, make yourself comfortable.
But after she had been scraped off, Callie concluded that it would be better to let the sun dry her well, before attempting to get rid of the rest. "About this job," said the man, "it's worth somethin', ain't it? It's considerable out of my way, travelin' to the middle of the river; besides I've got to look out for that boat, that nobody don't steal it."
