"He kept his foot down on the speed place as if 'twas glued. He shoved the 'spark' whatever that is 'way back. Every once in a while he yelled, yelled at the top of his lungs. What he yelled hadn't no sense to it. Sometimes you'd think that he was drivin' a horse and next that he was handlin' a schooner in a gale. "'Git dap! he'd whoop. 'Go it, you cripples!

That hit him pretty hard, I can tell you, 'cause he used to admire to come in here an' set round whenever he warn't on duty. But he saw I meant it, an' he ain't been since." The old man paused. "I kinder bit off my own nose when I took that stand," he admitted, an intonation of regret in his tone, "'cause Jack's mighty good company. Still, there was nothin' for it but firm handlin'."

McCorkle, dropping his voice with deep solemnity, "gets off things like them, without any call to do it, and handlin' flapjacks over a cookstove at the same time, that man's a borned poet." There was an awkward pause. Mr. McCorkle beamed patronizingly on his protege. The born poet looked as if he were meditating another flight, not a metaphorical one.

"Up to now, ez my friend, it would 'a' been perfectly proper fur you to give me your confidences ef you were minded so to do; but now I reckin you'd better not. You see, I'm the judge that's got to decide whether you are a responsible person whether you're mentally capable of handlin' your own financial affairs, or whether you ain't.

He used to go mate on a fishin' schooner and, from all I can learn, they use pretty strong language aboard these boats." "Pick it up same as a poll parrot," cut in her husband. "Comes natural when you're handlin' wet trawl line in February. Can't seem to get no comfort out of anything milder."

He found his courage fail at thought of laying hands upon the man as he was stretched there helpless. "I I can't touch him!" he exclaimed. "It'd be why, it'd be like handlin' th' dead!" He drew back, nonplussed, ashamed of his own timidity, yet unable to overcome it. He had felled the man and meant to kill him, yet, now, he could not bring himself to lay a hand upon him.

And I trembled when a bystander a standin' by who wuz arrangin' a beautiful bunch of 'em, a handlin' 'em as flowers ort to be handled, as if they had a soul, and could feel a rough or tender touch, this man sez to Josiah, "I see that you too love this beautiful blossom." I wuz glad the man's eyes wuz riveted onto his Bokay, for the ferocity of Josiah Allen's look wuz sunthin' fearful.

"It's harder to get off. Sometimes a man gets hanged up North for handlin' his gun too careless." "Did you ever kill anybody else?" asked the Pike man, eying Joshua rather uneasily. "No," said Mr. Bickford. "I shot one man in the leg and another in the arm, but that warn't anything serious." It was hard to disbelieve Joshua, he spoke with such apparent frankness and sincerity.

'Well, he turned it this away an' that away, to the right an' to the left, an' straight-ways an' upside-down, an' when he was tired handlin' it, says he to Terence Mooney: "Terence," says he, "you must remove the bird into the next room," says he, "an' put a petticoat," says he, "or anny other convaynience round his head," says he. "An' why so?" says Terence. "Becase," says Jer, says he.

Then we went into a narrow lane and I gave her a lead over some low bars, and here came game old Molly stretchin' over after me like fences and her were old stable-mates. "'Well, I will be damned, says Raven; 'she's a hoary wonder. Give her a week of handlin' and trim her up, and it'll be Jack for mother at a stiff price; he's so bent on his fad, he'll take a chance on her age.
