Jefferson nearly disgraced himself, but managed to stammer: "We doesn't ingen'ally put blinders on de saddle hawses, Miss, but ef yer says so I'll tak 'em long back ter de stables an' change de saddle headstalls fer de kerridge ones, tho' it sure would look mighty cur'ous." "No! No! Certainly not. It was merely a remark in passing.
You are the better judge of the requirements I dare say," and Miss Stetson beat a hasty retreat, entirely forgetting to warn her charges against venturing beyond bounds. Could she have seen Beverly's lips set she might have grown suspicious. The riding party started, Jefferson muttering: "Ma Lawd! dat 'oman suah do make me tired. Blinders on ma saddle hawses! Huh! 'Mr.
For your life, you daren't." His eyes glittered. Wolf Leroy was never a safe man to fling a challenge at. "Don't you be too sure of that, my dear. There ain't one thing on this green earth I daren't do if I set my mind to it. And your friends know it." The other man broke in, easy and unmoved. "Hold yore hawses, cap. We got no call to be threatening this young lady.
What it look lak ain't on de hawses, ma'am?" "Why their eyes seem so prominent. They seem to see too much, er " Beverly was attacked with a sudden paroxysm of coughing.
These here hawses are in purty fair condition, and I'd aim to keep 'em in flesh whilst I was breakin' 'em I'd git better prices. And then again, mebby I wouldn't want too many on hand at once, in case some party come along with the gall to loot 'em instead of buy 'em.

"Chap come into the round-up this afternoon," said Lin. "But he was rattled, and told a heap o' facts that wouldn't square." "Of course they wouldn't," said Tommy, haughtily.
I was getting few more than usual just now because I was going to share them with some friends of mine. I really wouldn't try to eat these all by myself." "Hermpf," snorted Aunt Esmerelda. "I suppose yo' friends include dat good for nuttin' Andy, whose all da time botherin' Uncle Jonas hawses. But dats all right, chile; ef you likes my cookies, you jus hep yoself to dem. Dat's what day is fo."
Ah would neveh have raced afteh to-day. It was a whim of an old man to see his colohs once moh among a field of hawses. Ah knew Ah was not of this day.

I'm sure I don't see why I shouldn't, if I like." "Well," said Tex, "that country's plumb hard to ride. It takes real work to bring in hawses from there. I wouldn't tackle that, if I was you; I'd ride out where it's easier." "Oh, would you? Well, thank you very much for the advice, I'm sure." Mary V looked back, saw the other boys jogging closer, and held Jake in to wait for them.
"No, seh! no seh!" The maiden cackled till the forest answered back. "No, seh! two raace hawses less'n one when each one on'y jess abreas' o' the otheh!" "'Breas' o' aw pshaw! you tuck the words right out'n my mouth! I seed the answeh to it fum the fus; I made a wrong espunction the fus time on'y jess faw a joke! Now, you ans' my question, dearess."
