Funny, ain't it, that when even these dudes from Yale get to be cranks they're short on baths and tailors?" Carl slid from the parallel bars.
"Well, dash your thievin' gang! We made our record for ourselves anyhow. We didn't have to rely on any dashed deserters from the regulars as you did." And that was why Sergeant Sterne, of the Dudes, was sent for by the field officers of both regiments the following morning and bidden to explain, which he did in few words.
"You've carried off oppression so far as a joke, but you can't do it any longer, Squire Thornton. The people are awake this time. They've got done electing lawyers and dudes and land-grabbers for Governors. They're going to have a Governor that will make State officials work for fair day's wages, as the farmers and artisans work. No more high-salaried loafers in public office!
Make that artist feller take that cap off him, Jim. He's got to. I wish he could have seen some of my mates. They wa'n't Cunarder dudes, but they could make a crew hop 'round like a sand-flea in a clam bake." Or, when the picture happened to be a shore view: "What kind of a house is that?

There was all day long a competition of dudes and elderly widowers and bachelors to wait on her. The charming little heiress accepted all the attentions with most engaging sweetness. Say what you will, men have good hearts. Yes, they were going to Newport.
The leaders' mouths might have been bound in cast-iron for all the attention they paid to the pull on their bits, although Pinkey and Wallie were using their combined strength in their efforts to stop the runaways. "Them dudes must be gittin' an awful churnin'," said Pinkey through his clenched teeth. "We'll be lucky if we are not ditched," Wallie panted as he braced his feet.
"MR. Byrne!" he ejaculated in disgust. "Forget it. Wot do youse tink I am, one of dose paper-collar dudes?" Then he sat up. Blood was flowing from a wound in his chest, saturating his shirt, and running slowly to the earth floor.
