"But, senores, we shall hope to see you daily until our investors arrive and then all the time." "You will find us always at your command, Don Luis," Tom remarked, cordially. "Ah, my good Carlos," murmured Don Luis, as the Mexican pair sped homeward in the car, "for once you made a bad guess. You insisted that the Gringos would hold out and would not serve me.
Indeed, he might have been expected to eat one of them right then and there. Behind a shade in the office building Dr. Tisco stirred uneasily. "What did I say to you, Don Luis?" inquired the secretary. "Did I not suggest that these Gringos would not be easily controlled?" "Wait!" advised Don Luis Montez. "Wait! You have not yet seen what my Gato will do. He is not a baby."
She sat still in her box, gazing out across the bull-ring. Her face was white and she fanned herself, but she never looked around. From all sides came the soldiers and officers and the common people bravely to subdue the mad Gringo. It is true the cry went up from the crowd to kill all the Gringos.
Here's Captain Delmonty coming to-night, and them chicken-thieves of Gringos have carried off every living thing there was to eat in the house." When Jack Delmonte appeared, late in the evening, he was puzzled at the change which had come over the pretty Grand Duchess, as he had mentally nicknamed Rita.
Ramon shot dead, Pasqual crippled, and the two "Gringos," the daring and enterprising leaders of the attack, painfully wounded, one probably mortally so.

He did not suspect them to be Gringos, but he was quite sure that they were brigands and he made the exchange swiftly and gladly.

"Those were gay times, my children," and Señora Sanchez sighed and sewed quietly for a while till Harry asked her if they kept Christmas before the Gringos came.
Manuel, in the shadow, frowned over the only words he understood Don Andres Picardo and señorita. The señors were agreeable companions, and they were his guests. But they were gringos, after all. And if they should presume to lift desireful eyes to the little Señorita Teresa Teresita, they called her fondly who knew her Manuel's mustache lifted suddenly at one side at the bare possibility.
