Why, THAT SNEAKIN' HOUND OF A BROTHER OF YOURS JIM! Jim! the scallawag that I booted outer the ranch five years ago, crawlin', writhin' back again after all these years to insult his old father's gray hairs! And some of you by God once thought that I was hard on him!" The sun was shining brightly the next morning as the young editor halted the up coach in the now dried hollow.
The whole braeside seemed to be crawlin' downwards. There was a river at the bottom and a high-arched wooden bridge. Beyond the bridge were many lights torches on a wall. The creepin' men all flowed towards the bridge. There had been no sound of any kind, just a velvet stillness. And then there was a cry in the darkness, the cry of a man who has been stabbed suddenly to the hairt.
Then all at once Farquarson began as suddenly as he had left off "Now, let us make up our minds never to broach running the gauntlet again in Russian waters, for they're devils to listen, and you never know where they are. Why, I've seen them at the time of the war crawlin' and sneakin' about all over, lying on the sofa in the billiard-rooms, and come and ask you to play in good English.
Looked like it was too near home to have a silver mine in it; and thar the stuff lay and waited for the day when I should take a notion to find a pretty rock for Deanie, and crawl back in thar and keep a crawlin', till I just fell over it, all croppin' out in the biggest kind of vein." Gray had heard Uncle Pros tell the story many times, but it had a perennial charm.
"FIVE AND NINEPENCE!" He wrote a figure. "What's that?" he said. "I'm going to show you what it is," said the smith. The other went on adding the figures aloud. "Yer crawlin' little , yer daresn't face me proper!" Paul quickly snatched the heavy ruler. Dawes started. The young man ruled some lines in his ledger. The elder man was infuriated.
Presently he said: "The hull blame country's crawlin' with rebel cavalry. I was to Mink Creek, an' they was passin' on the pike, wagons an' guns as fur as I could see. They levied on Swamp Holler at sunup; they was on every road along the State line. There ain't no road nor cow path clear that way." "And none the other way," she said. "Can't you help me?"
Then she turns up her nose because hobos and bums ain't civilized. Did you ever see a ma cat get mad because one of her kittens was born with sore eyes? I guess not. Cats has got sense. Now, what if I don't indignify myself to the extent of crawlin' under that line fence?" "'Course I'll bring you the coin in the mornin'. But if you don't go now, why, I got to quit this job.
"Right down along the base of thet red wall. A line of hosses. Jest like a few crawlin' ants' ... An' now they're creepin' out of sight." "Oh, I can't see them!" cried Lucy. "Are you SURE?" "Positive an' sartin," he replied. "Joel's comin'. He'll be up hyar before long. I reckon we'd jest as well let him come. Fer there's water an' grass hyar. An' down below grass is scarce."
The night's so bright I guess I kin use 'em nigh ez well ez in the day." "Certainly you can have them, Mr. Reed. Here they are." The mountaineer took a long look through them, and when he handed them back he uttered a clucking sound, significant of satisfaction. "I 'lowed it was him, when I saw him crawlin' behind that bush," he said, "an' now I know." "Who is who?" said Dick.
I believe you've lost your nerve, or the lettin' out of a little blood hes made you wobbly. We've Injuns here, an' ought to be a match fer two men." Brandt gazed at him with a derisive smile. "We kin go out an' fight these fellars," continued Legget. "We might try their own game, hidin' an' crawlin' through the woods." "We two would have to go it alone.
