Look at me with my rheumatiz and I got as good a chanct as any of 'em brains nor legs don't count in this. Now in the Oklahomy Run ..." And he told about the Oklahoma Run of almost a generation before, when speed and strategy were necessary if one were to be first on the land to stake a claim.
Spider laughed. "You better be a hero and go and enlist." Buzz's head came up with a jerk. "Je's, I never thought of that!" Red struck an attitude, one hand on his breast. "Now's your chanct, Buzz, to save your country an' your flag. Enlistment office's right over the Golden Eagle clothing store. Step up. Don't crowd gents! This way!" Buzz was staring at him, open-mouthed.
You better fan it out of this while you got the chanct." "Did they send you over to push that bluff or are you talkin' straight?" "S' help me! It's the bleedin' truth!" "Well, I'm thankin' you. But get goin' afore I change my mind." "Would you shake with a bum?" queried Waco. "Why all right. You're tryin' to play square, I reckon. Wait a minute!
But it would bust her all up if I had to do time fer a hold-up. You've got me where you want me, I guess. But I don't want in on no dirty money from old Lazy Y, nor no one else. You go it alone it's your kind of a job. "This here chloride, or whatever you call it, you sure it won't kill a man?" Purdy laughed: "Course it won't. It'll only put him to sleep till I've had a chanct to win out.
I doan reckon Matlock will ketch him nappin' Ken's eye tooths is cut but yuh nevah kin tell!" She sighed lugubriously and the girl's blood ran cold in her veins. "Thar's allus a chanct an' Ken is a heap keerless at times. I hope he gits him soon!" "But why?" said Grace unevenly, making a heroic struggle to retain the composure that was fast deserting her.
What's that mean?" broke in Gordon. One of the Mexicans had left the rest, and was running toward the Corbett house. "Gone to find whether we're on the porch with the family, up there," continued the young man, answering his own question. "What's the matter with beating it while we've got a chanct?" "I'm going to stay right here. You can go if you like, Steve?" "Oh, well. I just suggested it."
I sez to Maria, 'Here's a chanct to do a good Christian act an' earn a honest penny. We'll take it in an' treat it like our own, sez I, an' the Lord will not fergit us, sez I!" The Boarder, taking advantage of this assurance of hospitality, set up such a peremptory demand for food, that Miss Lady was compelled to walk the floor with him. "Where is Mrs. Flathers?" she asked in despair.
What I'm talking about now is Mary Warren down and out, with not even eyes to see with, and no money back of her, and no place to go. What are you going to do, Sis? that's all. In my case believe me, if I lose my chanct at this man, Charlie Dorenwald, I'm going to find another some time.
"I'm sure thinkin' of you every minute. It ain't Malvey that's botherin' me now." "Then why do you not rest and wait?" "Because restin' and waitin' is worse than takin" a chanct. I got to go." "You must go?" Pete nodded. "But what if I will not find a horse for you?" "Then I reckon you been foolin' me right along." "That is not so!" Boca's hand dropped to her side and she turned from him.
Now, in the cow country the drawing of a gun is one and the same movement with the firing of it, and why Cinnabar Joe hesitated he did not know. Purdy laughed: "Put her down, Cinnabar. Yeh won't shoot, now. Yeh see, I kind of figgered yeh might be sort o' riled up, so I left my gun in my slicker. Shootin' a unarmed man don't git yeh nothin' but a chanct to stretch a rope."
