"Because there's a story goin' the rounds," answered the cougher, "to the effec' that a horse was blown a hundred miles in a cyclone and when they found him he was hitched to a tree and skinned." There was a period of thoughtful silence before the Doctor went on with his story. "As Mrs. Jonathan looked out the door," he said, "she saw Jonathan walking down the road in her direction.
A man like me do you hear a cougher, whose marrow is being consumed incarnate misery on two tottering legs a piteous figure, whom one can no more imagine outside the grave, than a sportsman without a terrier, or hound such a person calls into the ears of the ostrich, that shuts its eyes: 'Death is pointing at you!

Someone coughed in the shadow fringe beyond the light of those tired flames. It was a short hard cough, the kind which hurt Drew's ears as much as its tearing must have hurt the throat which harbored it. He turned his head a fraction to see the bundle of blankets housing the cougher. Then the reins of mule and horse were twisted from his stiff fingers, and Kirby's drawl broke through the coughing.
Some of the persons thus uncomfortably influenced coughed violently in an instinctive attempt to divert or frustrate the preacher's mood, but even the most persistent cougher must cease coughing at some time or another and the Abbe was evidently determined to wait for an absolute silence before he spoke.

The doctor had known his family, varying from thirty to fifty, all down at one time with bad colds, or coryza, as named by the medical profession, when isolating the first small cougher and sneezer might have saved all of the others. "If only that young Mrs. Dexter, Jim Hathaway's granddaughter, would make us a small donation," he groaned.
