Karl's sons, now four in number, used to circle around their grandparent like a humble chorus kept at a distance, and stare enviously at these gifts. In order to win his favor, they one day when they saw him alone, came boldly up to him, shouting in unison, "Down with Napoleon!" "You insolent gringoes!" ranted the old man.

They 're waitin' for one of us to bust a egg. That'll be a big joke, and they'll 'most die a-laughin' 'cause it's a joke and 'cause we're Gringoes." "Then here's where I bust one," said Brevoort. "Get a couple in your hand. Act like you was chokin' to death. I'll laugh. Then I'll kind of get the smell of that lame egg and stand up quick. Ready?" "Shoot," said Pete.
