"Cotton is afoot for I seen his hoss over there. But he can make it to the T-Bar-T in three hours. That'll give us a start of two hours, anyhow. I don't know which way you aim to ride, but " "I'm playin' this hand alone," stated Pete as he saddled Blue Smoke. "No use your gittin' in bad." White made no comment, but cinched up his pony. Pete stepped to him and held out his hand. "So-long, Andy.
"I'm sorry you're so frightened, Merriwell," he said. "I'm sorry you haven't any more nerve. That hundred dollars would help me along in defraying expenses." "Waal, gol derned if he don't figure it aout that he'd have the hundred cinched if he made the bet!" spluttered Gallup. "I should consider it as good as mine the moment the money was posted," nodded Silence.
As Bob entered, his former associate turned a troubled face toward the young man. "Bob," said he at once, "they've got the old man cinched, unless you'll help out." "How's that?" "You remember when we first came in here how Plant closed the road and the flume right-of-way on us because we didn't have the permit?" "Of course." "Now, Bob, you remember how we was up against it, don't you?
To Lily the moment was almost a holy one, but he seemed more interested in the quality of the stone and its appearance on her hand than in its symbolism. "Got you cinched now, honey. Do you like it?" "It makes me feel that I don't belong to myself any longer." "Well, you've passed into good hands," he said, and laughed his great, vibrant laugh. "Costing me money already, you mite!"
You've cinched your million, now go get the girl." This was too much for the tortured Johnny, and the smoldering agony within him burst into flame. "Look here, Courtney!" he declared with a vehemence which really seemed quite unnecessary, "I'm going to marry Constance Joy whether she likes it or not!" A flash of white at the head of the stairs caught Johnny's eye. It was Constance!
The sullen light had vanished from his eyes and a startled look of apprehension replaced it. "Those plugs cinched up?" he demanded sharply. And mechanically his hand fell on the butt of one of the guns at his waist. "Sure," nodded the other half-breed. All three listened acutely. Yes, the sound of galloping was plain to their trained hearing. The mountains carried a tremendous echo.
When he happened to meet you on the way, he would be plumb tickled, for that cinched things proper for him. You would be a witness nobody could get away from." "And what about their hawsses? Did they bring the bronchs in the car, too?" drawled Keller, an amused flicker in his eyes. The others, who had been swimming into their deductions so confidently, were brought up abruptly.
Fortunately the supply of the latter was abundant, and while saddles were being cinched on horses, the cook and I divided the ammunition and distributed it among the men. The few minutes' rest refreshed my horse, but as we dashed away, the boys yelling like Comanches, the five-mile ride had bested him and he fell slightly behind.
Yet he groaned hopelessly when he realized that his delay might mean the death of two of his companions. Professor Zepplin arrived at the camp just as Ned had finally cinched the girths and swung himself into the saddle. "Where where is he?" gasped the Professor, now breathing hard. "Below the bend. Get back there with a rope and be ready to toss it to him if he lets go."
When he was a respectable distance ahead the squaw rose from her bush and followed, such determination in her silent movements as to make Dad's hope for future freedom hollow indeed. The old man was cinched at last; Mackenzie was glad that it was so. The sound of Carlson's sheep was still near that morning, and coming nearer, as whoever attended them ranged them slowly along.
