"Reminds me of what the Bible sez," said Logroller; "'there's a lion on the trail; I'll be chawed up, sez the lazy galoot, ur words to that effect." "Come, come boys," interposed the colonel; "don't mix religion an' bizness. They don't mix no more than Hello, thar's the crack of Old Black's whip! Pick yer bushes quick! All jump when I whistle!" Each man secreted himself near the roadside.
How he'd been blew up in mines; squizzled down a mountain on a snow-slide; chawed by a bear; caught under a felled tree; sunk on a Missouri River steamboat, and her afire, so you couldn't tell whether to holler for the life-savers or the fire-engine; shot up by Injuns and personal friends; mistook for a horse-thief by the committee, and much else, closing the list with his right bower. 'And, Mr.
If this is another Humpy Joe affair I'm a-goin' to put one more notch in my gun-handle, and it looks like a cub bear had chawed it already." "There ain't but one thing to do," Stover announced, firmly. "We've got to put it up to Mr. Glass and learn the truth." "You'll find him in the bunk-house," directed Fresno. "I think I'll trail along and hear what he has to say."
"You're a little devil of iniquity yourself," he told her. "You're a regular Mrs. Captain Kidd, and you've eaten my cheese, and chawed my snowshoe laces, and robbed me of a sock to make your nest.

A more remarkable case was that of a bunch of horses which became snowed in, the snow being so deep they could not break a way out. The owner with great difficulty managed to rescue them, when it was found they had actually chawed each other's tails and manes off. Indian dogs have a great antipathy to white men, likewise our own dogs towards Indians, which our horses also share in.
"I see the point," Mostyn laughed. "I'm glad you do so quick, for I had to have it beat into me with a sledge-hammer," Webb said, dryly.
