This was audacity and yet she liked it. "I am very fond of Moses," she said quickly. "You always was charitable, Cynthy," said he. "Haven't I been charitable to you?" she retorted. "G-guess it has be'n charity," said Jethro. He looked down at her solemnly, thoughtfully, no trace of anger in his face, turned, and without another word strode off in the direction of Coniston Flat.
I got tired of it after a while, made up my mind that I had found one man I couldn't move. Then what bothered me was to get out of that room. If I'd a had a Bible I believe I'd a read it to him. I didn't know what to say, but I did say this after a while: "'W-well, Mr. President, I guess I've kept you long enough g-guess you're a pretty busy man. H-hope you'll give Mr.
"No," said the astounded Mr. Balch. He scratched his head and fingered the leaves of his check-book. The captains over the tens and the captains over the hundreds would want little retainers and who was to pay these? "How about the boys?" asked Mr. Balch. "S-still got the same office in the depot hain't you, Ed, s-same office?" "Yes." "G-guess the boys hev b'en there before," said Jethro. Mr.
A certain kind of an eye is an incomparable weapon, and armed men have been cowed by those who possess it, though otherwise defenceless. Jethro Bass had that kind of an eye. "G-guess you wouldn't understand if I was to tell you," he said. Mr. Worthington walked to the window again, perhaps to compose himself, and then came back again.
Pulling a great cowhide wallet from his pocket, still holding the locket in his hand, to the amazement of the clerk he counted out twenty dollars and laid them down. "G-guess I'll take that one, g-guess I'll take that one," he said. Then he looked at Mr. Wetherell for the first time. "Hold!" cried the clerk, more alarmed than he cared to show, "that's not the price.
"G-guess I've told you all he said," answered Jethro; "'twahn't a great deal." The senator held out his hand. "Bass," he said, laughing, "I believe you came pretty near meeting your match. But if Grant's the hardest man in the Union to get anything out of, I've a notion who's the second." And with this parting shot the senator took his departure, chuckling to himself as he went.
Did you think I could sell it for that price?" "W-wahn't that the price you fixed?" "You simpleton!" retorted Wetherell, with a conviction now that he was calling him the wrong name. "Give me back the locket, and you shall have your money, again." "W-wahn't that the price you fixed?" "Yes, but " "G-guess I'll keep the locket g-guess I'll keep the locket."
"G-guess I'm willin' to pay you full as much as it's worth," said Jethro, producing a cowhide wallet. "Er what figure do you allow it comes to with the frame?" The artist was past taking offence, since Jethro had long ago become for him an engrossing study. "I will send you the bill for the frame, Mr. Bass," he said, "the picture belongs to Cynthia."
G-guess some of 'em hain't as valuable." William Wetherell was beginning to think that Jethro knew something also of such refinements of cruelty as were practised by Caligula. He drew forth his cowhide wallet and produced from it a folded piece of newspaper which must, Wetherell felt sure, contain the mortgage in question.
"Do you want to take the appointment along with you to-night?" asked the judge, in surprise. "G-guess that's about it." Without a word the judge went over to his table, and for a while the silence was broken only by the scratching of his pen. "Er interested in roads, Will, interested in roads?" The judge stopped writing to listen, since it was now the turn of the other victim.
