If there was one thing on which Bugs Butler prided himself, it was footwork. The adverb "lightly" is a relative term, and the blow which had just planted a dull patch on Ginger's cheekbone affected those present in different degrees. Ginger himself appeared stolidly callous. Sally shuddered to the core of her being and had to hold more tightly to the rope to support herself.
It was issued by a citizens' committee of San Francisco, and announced a general reward for the capture of any member of the "Hounds." "Looks as if they'd got tired of that gang down there," Johnny observed. "They were ruling the roost when we left. Do you know, I saw one of those fellows this afternoon perhaps you remember him a man with a queer sort of blue scar over one cheekbone.
That pinky-delicate complexion by which he had, in earlier and easier days, set obvious store, was brownish and looked hardened. The Cupid's-bow of his mouth had straightened out. High on one cheekbone was a not unsightly scar. His manner was unassertive, but eminently self-respecting, and me, whom aforetime he had stigmatized as a "white-whiskered old goat," he now addressed as "Sir."
In the third round I aimed a blow at my adversary's neck with my right hand, but failing in my reach, he returned it full swing with his left, and dealt me such a staggerer on my cheekbone that down I went like a ninepin and measured my length on the floor. "Capital! That was a settler, eh, my boy? Now you can get up and talk sense."
The foreman, with a red beard, matted to one side, and with blue austere eyes; and a tremendous young fellow, whose left eye was swollen, and who had a spot of a dark-blue colour spreading from the forehead to the cheekbone and from the nose to the temple; and a young boy with a naive, country face, with a gaping mouth like a fledgling's, weak, moist; and an old man who, having come late, was running after the gang at a funny, goat-like trot; and their clothes, soiled with lime, their aprons and their chisels all this flickered before him in an inanimate file a colourful, motley, but dead cinematographic film.
The Chinaman, an evil-looking old fellow with a long cicatrice across his left cheekbone, shook his head and regarded his questioner craftily. "No spik English!" he said. "You spoke it then," Jack retorted. "I'll bet a pan of pickles that you know what we were saying when you came in here." "Let him alone," Frank advised. "That head of his is solid bone.
His hand and arm were raised in the form of a splint to support the squire, who glared back over his cheekbone, horrified that he could not escape the contact, and in too great pain from arthritic throes to protest: he resembled a burglar surprised by justice.
His hair is perfectly straight and sparse, and there is a depression of the cheeks where one would expect to find a prominence: that is at the cheekbone. The cranial development is unusual.
A red spot burned on Halby's high cheekbone for a minute, but he persistently kept his temper. "I'm expected elsewhere," he said at last. "I'm only one man, yet I wish I could go to-day even alone. But " "But you have a heart," said Pierre. "How wonderful a heart!
"English manners?" he queried, in cutting, contemptuous tone. "I'll teach you some," rejoined the fellow promptly. And without more ado he dashed out a terrific left-hander, which the other just escaped receiving full in the eye, but not entirely as to the cheekbone. Hazon did not hit back, but what followed amazed even the bystanders.
