His hand went to his shoulder; Steve saw the hand go red. Woods's face was white and drawn with pain. His eyes went to the rifle at his feet. Steve stepped forward, took the thing up, tossed it back into the cabin. Woods swayed, pitched a little forward, caught himself, steadied himself with a hand on the door-jamb, and shakily drew himself to his feet. Steve marvelled at him.
"Hyar," said Corney one morning, "time we had some fresh meat." He took down his rifle, an old-fashioned brass-mounted small-bore, and loading with care that showed the true rifleman, he steadied the weapon against the door-jamb and fired. The Woodchuck fell backward and lay still.
LEONÍD. I do love you, indeed I do! Same room as in second picture POTÁPYCH is leaning against the door-jamb, his hand to his head. VASILÍSA PEREGRÍNOVNA enters quietly. VASILÍSA PEREGRÍNOVNA. Result of yesterday evening, I suppose, my friend? POTÁPYCH. Wha-a-t? VASILÍSA PEREGRÍNOVNA. Your head aches. POTÁPYCH. Did you put up the money?
That evening the Dago Duke leaned against the door-jamb of the White Elephant Saloon and watched Dan Treu coming from Dr. Harpe's office with failure written upon his face. His white teeth gleamed in a smile of amusement as he waited for the sheriff. "Don't swear, Dan. Never speak disrespectfully of a lady if you can help it."
He stood staring dumbly at the light and warmth and at Ma Snow, then he stooped and began fumbling clumsily at the strappings of his snow-shoes. "Won't you-all come in?" Ma Snow, recovering a little from her surprise, asked hospitably. He pitched forward and would again have gone down but that he threw out his hand and caught the door-jamb. "Bruce Burt! Hell's catoots! Bruce Burt!"
They are the most careful of investigators, and, when the medium's trap is located in the door-jamb, will pound the walls, and insist on the carpet being taken up, when they will get upon their hands and knees and make a most searching examination of the floor.
The parrot had learned to speak Canadian French to the extent of demanding his crackers and water in the lingo of the habitant. Whether he will yet stretch his linguistic acquirements to the learning of Iroquois I shall not say. It is at least possible. The two are inseparable. The last time I went to see them, no one answered my knock on the door-jamb.
This morning he was darkly prepared to find something wrong, and he felt belittled when the mixture exploded sweet and strong, and the car didn't even brush the door-jamb, gouged and splintery with many bruisings by fenders, as he backed out of the garage. He was confused. He shouted "Morning!" to Sam Doppelbrau with more cordiality than he had intended.
A hulking fellow leaned against the door-jamb smoking a short pipe; and Brunow addressing an inquiry to him, he jerked his thumb towards the river, and answered: "Just got steam up. Start in an hour at the outside." "Is there no boat?" Brunow asked. "Boat?" said the man, spitting lazily into the road; "boats enough, if you care to pay for 'em."
Curt Dawson, who stood with his arms folded and his loose length draped against the door-jamb, grinned at my dolorous face. "Nice place, ain't hit fer a murder?" "That's about all," I responded affably enough. I had discovered that I was gaining nothing by a sullen attitude and I am afraid that I was even yielding to a cheap desire to impress these desperadoes with my indifference.
