"We shall have to join Wayside," lamented Toots. "Oh, how I hate it." "I wouldn't join until you see whether I land the place," advised Ripley. "I suppose I COULD go to some other city."
The Dartie within him made him chaffer for five minutes with young Padwick concerning the favourite for the Cambridgeshire; then with the words, "Put the gee down to my account," he walked away, a little wide at the knees, and flipping his boots with his knotty little cane.

The Vicomtesse went to the doorway, looked at him, and closed the battened doors.

One man obeyed. One gave a squawk of terror and permitted his gun to go off at random before he fled toward the coulee.

The rejected one inclined his head. Barclay was about to laugh, but instead he said, "Well, you are not a quitter; why don't you go ahead and get her?"
