"Come on, you little ole cop planes that thinks you're campin' on my trail! You'll have to ride and whip 'em, now I'm tellin' yuh, if you want to keep in sight of our dust! Sunfish for 'em, you doggone Thunder Bird! You're the flyin' bronk from Arizona, and it's your day to fly!" With the first loop Schwab went sick, and after that he had no wish except to die.
When they had laughed at this, Kitty explained to that Dean how Mrs. Manning was the Helen Wakefield with whom she had been such friends at school, and that, after the Mannings' outing in Granite Basin, Helen was to visit Williamson Valley. "Campin' out in Granite Basin, heh?" said the Dean to Stanford. "I reckon you'll be seein' some o' my boys.
Furthermore, I figure it ain't unlikely they'll come after me some time to-night. If it was just you and me, Casey, we could stand the hand, and whatever hangin' there was would come off in the smoke. But with women on the place it wouldn't be right. So I'll just point out for a little campin' spot somewheres, and save everybody trouble.
"All right, it's a go, if you put it that way." "Shake! You'll enjoy it, Miss Donna. You'll find yourself real popular when you get up to the hotel. Some o' the natives was thinkin' o' bringin' their blankets an' three days' rations, an' campin' in front o' the hotel until you arrived. Well, good-by, till supper-time.
"Five years ago," he answered, "we were campin' on the Snake River, in southern Idaho. There was sage-brush, an' sand, an' stars, an' nothin' else. An engineerin' fellow, who he was I dunno, rides up to the fire. Where he comes from I dunno; I reckon his body came along the road of the sage-brush and the sand, but his mind came by the stars.
They had been intimidated by the guns of Jerry and his chum, but this new source of danger chilled their ardor wonderfully. "I reckon we ain't goin' to try any more tricks, fellers. Thought we'd have a leetle fun out of this campin' business; but seein' as how ye take it so hard, we'd better draw off," muttered Pet, completely humbled.
An' all goin' east. We hain't met an outfit headin' west. Hev you heerd any talk of a railroad buildin' out of Omaha?" Here Larry put a word in. "Shore. We've had soldiers campin' around aboot all heah." "Soldiers!" ejaculated one of the gang. "Shore, the road's bein' built by soldiers." The men made no further comment and turned away without any good- bys.

"Campin' out, shepherd fashion, Moses? Bad for the kids; these ain't the hills of Judea." It was the policeman on the beat stirring the trio gently with his club.
"Why, quit takin' you out huntin' and campin' and showin' you how to tell deer tracks from goat's tracks and everything." "But I have a beau," said Dorothy teasingly. "Who is he?" demanded Little Jim. "Promise you won't tell?" Little Jim hesitated. He did not consider it quite the thing to promise a girl anything. But he was curious. "Uh-huh," he said.
Ye ha' cattle, Mister Lorrigan; I ken weel ye should no' be put to it for a wee bit meat but I ken weel yon spotty yearlin' was mine. I ken ye've been campin' thereabout and it wad seem, Mister Lorrigan, that the salt was no sa plentifu' when the spotty yearlin' was kilt."
