He h-hates anyone else to h-have a good time and tell lies.
"It's real nice of you to come in like this for a friendly conflab," said the seaman, dangerously pleasant. "M-Man, t-take your h-hand off m-me! H-How dare y-you a-assault m-me!

Jethro Bass, rugged, uncouth, in rawhide boots and swallowtail and coonskin cap, came down from the porch to welcome her, and she ran toward him with an eagerness that started the painter to wondering afresh over the contrasts of life. What, he asked himself, had Fate in store for Cynthia Wetherell? "H-have a good time, Cynthy?" said Jethro, looking down into her face.
