"Warfield, by !" Al blurted in his outraged astonishment. "Trailing me with a bunch, are yuh? I knew you'd double-cross your own father but I never thought you had it in you to do it in the open. Damn yuh, what d'yuh want that you expect to get?" Warfield stared at him, slack-jawed.
"We may be right above 'em, for all we know. We hit it a little too high up. How far d'yuh reckon it is t' the mouth, Mac?" "Not more than half a mile," MacRae returned. "We're not far out. I know where there's a good place to get down." We turned sharply to the right, coming out on a narrow point. Without mishap we reached the foot of the steep hill.
He essayed, with the aid of a large splinter, to scrape the offending soap from his trousers. "Certainly, you didn't. Bachelors never use soap," retorted Della. "Oh, they don't, hey? That's all you know about it. They don't use this doggoned, slimy truck, let me tell yuh. What d'yuh want, Chip? Oh, you've got t' grin, too! Dell, why don't yuh do something fer my head?
"D'yuh reckon Matlock'll be among thu bunch?" asked Red, hopefully. "Not he!" scornfully said Douglass. "He hasn't sand enough to face a full-grown man's gun. He'll he down at the Palace with Coogan when the fun starts, so as to establish an alibi. This is to be a Roman holiday, you understand, with the 'Roman' spelled g-r-e-a-s-e-r! Pity to spoil such a pretty scheme, eh?"
"Say" Pink's fists kneaded energetically Cal's suffering diaphragm. "are yuh all ba-a-d?" "Oh, Lord! No. I'm dead gentle. Lemme up." "D'yuh think that critter will quit the bunch ag'in to-night?" "He ain't liable to," Cal assured him meekly. "Say, who the devil are yuh anyhow?" "I'm Percival Cadwallader Perkins. Do yuh like that name?
Cal scrambled slowly and painfully to his feet. "Then you're Milk River Pink. I might uh guessed it," he sighed. "I cannot tell a lie," Pink averred. "Only, plain Pink'll do for me. Where d'yuh suppose the bunch is by this time?" They mounted and rode back together. Cal was deeply thoughtful.
If you've got any business with me or my company, get it over and then get out so we aim make this scene. What d'yuh want?" "You," snapped the sheriff. "You and your bunch." "Me?" Luck took a step forward. "What for?" "For pulling off that robbery at the bank today." The sheriff could be pretty blunt, and he shot the charge straight, without any quibbling.
"What's that?" The two jerked themselves to a sitting position, and stared into the blackness of the grove. "Bobcat," whispered Clark, in a tone which convinced not even himself. "In a pig's ear," flouted Gene, under his breath. He leaned far over and poked his finger into a muffled form. "D'yuh hear that noise, Grant?" Grant sat up instantly.
"Shall I choke him to assure silence?" Phil hurriedly asked himself, and instinctively made to put his hands to the man's neck. But the body under him began to wriggle, to kick out with its legs, and to lay about with its hands. "What the hell d'yuh mean?" it gasped. "Git off o' me!" Philip scrambled promptly to his feet, having recognised the voice. "I'll stake my life, it's Meadows!"
"D'yuh s'pose I'd foller a man's trail as fur as that, if everything didn't tally face, eyes, nose, height, build, clo'es, hat, brown paper parcel, everything?" "Then it's simply marvellous," said Larcher, with genuine astonishment, "how you managed to get on his track, and to follow it from place to place." "Oh, it's my business to know how to do them things," replied Mr. Lafferty, deprecatingly.
