She used to be, as you put it, rather a live one; but I didn't quite know how " "Kyrle Ballard, is that you?" comes floatin' out from the front door. "If it is, and you wish to know anything more about Zenobia Hadley, I should advise you to come to headquarters. Torchy, bring in those sandwiches and Mr. Ballard, if he cares to follow." "There!" says I to Ballard. "You've got a sample.
I tell you what, Diana, you must set your cream pot in here o' nights; the dairy's too cold." "Warm enough yet, mother. Makes better butter." "You don't get nigh so much, though. That last buttermilk was all thick with floatin' bits of butter; and that's what I call wasteful." "I call it good, though."
"A raw onion in vinegar," said her mother "It's the only thing that seems to make you want to eat a little. An' reddishes we had some new reddishes fur dinner didn't we, Samanthy?" "Good Lord," snapped Jud "reddishes an' buttermilk no wonder you needed that weight on your stomach it's all that kept you from floatin' in the air. Cyant eat O good Lord!"
I warned her to be keerful not to cut herself 'cause 'twere sharper'n the tooth o' a weasel. The vittles was tasty no common ven'son er moose meat, but the best roast beef, an' mutton, an' ham an' jest 'nough Santa Cruz rum to keep the timber floatin'! They snickered when I tol' 'em I'd take my tea bar' foot.
Overland heaved great sigh. "He's floatin' somewhere between here and the far shore. Mebby he's tryin' to pull through. The doc says the kid don't seem to care whether he does or not. Did the little Rose Girl tell you anything to to say to him?" "When I was leavin' she come out to the gate," said Williams. "She didn't say much. She only hands me this, and kind of whispered, 'Give him this.
In we went among the floatin' spars and ship's timbers, I keepin' the things off with an oar, the two men rowin', an' Andy in the bow. "Suddenly Andy give a yell, an' then he reached himself for'ard with sech a bounce that I thought he'd go overboard. But up he come in a minnit, his two 'leven-inch hands gripped round a box.
I'd sure hate slingin' mud at any feller's features, much less yours, who're a good customer to me, but you're comin' the highbrow, an' you got notions of honor still floatin' around in your flabby thinkin' department sech as was handed you by the guys who ran that thousand dollar college.
When he turned up his belly I jammed my left hand with the wood right into his great grinnin' mouth, and I let him have it with my knife between the gills. He tried to break away then, but I held on, d'ye see, though he took me so deep I thought I'd never come up again. I was nigh gone when we got to the surface, but he was floatin' with the white up, and twenty holes in his shirt front.
You know the main part of the grub's aboard the other boat Think of those juicy hams floatin' off down the Bushkill, with not a single tooth ever bein' put in 'em; and all that bread and stuff soaked. Oh! it gives me a cold shiver to even think of it," for Dan loved the bugle call that announced dining time better than any other music. The greatest excitement prevailed aboard both boats.
Now, I ain't in the habit of pickin' floatin' an' unconscious boys out o' the middle o' the river, an' that leaves me in unpleasant doubt, me bein' of an inquirin' turn o' mind."
