I've come on this at take, Master Hutter, to rende'vous a fri'nd, and I only wish he was here himself, as I make no doubt he will be at sunset tomorrow, when you'd have another rifle to aid you; an inexper'enced one, I'll allow, like my own, but one that has proved true so often ag'in the game, big and little, that I'll answer for its sarvice ag'in mortals."
Babcock noticed particularly his low, flat forehead when he removed his hat, and the dry, red hair growing close to the eyebrows. "I wuz a-sp'akin' to me fri'nd Mister Lathers about doin' yer wurruk," began McGaw, resting one foot on a pile of barrow-planks, his elbow on his knee. "I does all the haulin' to the foort. Surgint Duffy knows me.
Casey, the old lineman, grinned at him over the familiar short, black pipe. "B'gorra, it's me ould fri'nd Neale." "It sure is. How're you Casey?" "Pritty good fur an ould soldier.... An' it's news I hear of yez, me boy." "What news?" "Shure yez hed a boost. Gineral Lodge hisself wor tellin' Grady, the boss, that yez had been given charge of Number Ten." "Yes, that's correct."
Frank Merriwell's eyes began to gleam with a peculiar light and his lips tightened. "They fancy they're up against a lot of youngsters they can intimidate," he thought. "They mean to frighten us at the start." Again Bender motioned for Mulloy to move back from the plate. "Pitch the ball, me fri'nd pitch the ball," said Barney. "Oi'm in me box, and I'll shtand here."
He halted suddenly and looked keenly at McDermott. "Wot the divil! ... B'gorra, ut's to me fri'nd Neale an' a love letter an' " "Wal, kape it, thin, fer Neale an' be dacent enough to rade no more." Lifting Beauty Stanton, they carried her out into the sunlight. Her white face was a shadowed and tragic record. "Mac, she wor shure a handsome woman," said Casey, "an' a loidy."
It's extr'ornary too, Judith yes, it's downright extr'ornary that the owner shall fire his piece at a deer, or some other game, or perhaps at an inimy, and twice out of three times he'll miss; but let him catch an accident with one of these forgotten charges, and he makes it sartain death to a child, or a brother, or a fri'nd!
"Choke off roight where ye are," commanded Barney. "Oi'm yer fri'nd, Greg Carker, but Oi'll hit ye av ye sling any of that socialist talk at us! Ye've r'iled me now. Oi must have a shmoke to soothe me narves." "Me, too," grinned Ephraim, as they both rose. "You'll 'scuse us for a little while, won't ye, girls? We'll jest step into the smokin' compartment."
Judith, this is talking of nothing but myself, and my own consarns, when you have had trouble enough, and may want to consult a fri'nd a little about your own matters. Is the old man laid in the water, where I should think his body would like to rest?" "It is, Deerslayer," answered Judith, almost inaudibly. "That duty has just been performed.
"March has his say of all things in natur', whether of fri'nd or foe," slowly and cautiously rejoined the hunter. "He's one of them that speak as they feel while the tongue's a-going, and that's sometimes different from what they'd speak if they took time to consider. Give me a Delaware, Judith, for one that reflects and ruminates on his idees!
