A very large and very informal committee took charge of the business of the fight, and what was alluded to as "a friendly boxing contest between Bully Harberth of the Fifth and de Warrenne late Funky " was arranged for the following Saturday afternoon. Those who had been loudest in dubbing him Funky Warrenne were quickest in finding explanations of his curious conduct and explained it well away.
Captain Taylor turned to Masters. "Keep him covered. I'll be back unless the bomb goes off." "The bomb," whispered Norden, fearfully, "should have exploded. I was double-crossed. They sent me here to get caught! The dirty " "Watch Norden, and you might keep your eye on Funky, here," Taylor said, pointing to the slobbering man who had dropped to his knees at the sight of the orange sphere.
Even Tiny catches on after a while, because I see him put down that funky old pistol I gave him that he's been loving up. I'm feeling pretty good. I wish a couple of them chicken Leopards would turn up so I could show them what they missed out on. Yeah, I'll take on them, and the Black Dogs, and all the cops in the world all at once that's how good I'm feeling.
"There's nothing like beginning early. Can you swim, kiddie?" "Not not far," said Toppin cautiously. "I can swim with my arms all right, only I sometimes put one foot on the ground." "If you don't swim, you'll sink, you know," explained Armitage. "This is deep water." "Not so very; only five feet," rejoined Toppin. "I'm not funky. Of course I know how to swim. I've watched frogs awfully closely."
What the hell are you doing?" "Coming, Sir!" I sung out. "Shall I stay?" I asked definitely. "Garn!" he said. "Don't yer fret yerself. I'll tike er bloomin' piy-diy out of 'er. Blarst 'em. I ain't funky of 'em." I went. That was the last word Williams spoke to anyone living. I reached the decks, and tailed on to the haulyards.
Instantly the four candles went out, and there was a hurried movement towards the door, and a murmur of voices. "Now then," said Brigson, in a loud whisper, "what a funky set you are! Here goes?" The master, surprised at the sudden gloom and confusion, had just looked up, unable to conjecture what was the matter. Brigson's crust caught him a sharp rap on the forehead as he moved.
Harberth, a big clumsy boy, a little inclined to fat, with small eyes, heavy low forehead, thick lips, and amorphous nose, lurched over to where Dam endeavoured to read himself into a better and brighter world inhabited by Deadwood Dick, Texas Joe, and Red Indians of no manners and nasty customs. "I want you, Funky Warren.
Then Captain Dodd went in, and treated those artists with the same good-humoured contempt he would a parish bowler, and, in particular, sent Mynne's over-tossed balls flying over his head for five, or to square leg for four, and, on his retiring with twenty-five, scored in eight minutes, the remaining Barkingtonians were less funky, and made some fair scores."

Some of our beaters were funky, I believe, and gave the bear a wide berth I feel sure, otherwise we must have had better sport. During the evening of the third day F got a bad attack of fever, the intermittent fever common in all the Danubian Provinces. After supper the rain came on again, not violently, but enough to make everything very damp.
Then, as I stood there, irresolute and funky, I got the thought that someone was acting the goat; though for what reason or purpose, I never stopped to consider. I was glad of any suggestion that my common sense assured me was not impossible; and, for the moment, I felt quite relieved. That side to the question had not presented itself to me before. I began to pluck up courage.
