"How many times have I explained to you that nothing absolutely nothing is so disgraceful as a man who will not work? What were you placed in the world for? How do you justify your existence?" "How," replied her unabashed audience, with a wave of his pipe toward the front yard, where Mr. Welles was amiably superintending a wrestling match, "does he justify hisn?"
"Ye see, Take-a-Stitch, it's this way no use wastin' eight cents on a old ferry when four'll do. You look all over Broadway again. Then, if he ain't anywheres 'round there, go straight to them other crony captains o' hisn an' see. Bein's he can't tell difference 'twixt night an' day, how'd he know when to come back to the Lane, anyway?" "He always come 'fore," answered Glory, sorrowfully.
Slade strode in after Carmena and jerked a chair around to where he could look close into Lennon's face. "Now, young man, what's this bunk about you and Carmena being pards?" he demanded. "What business you got in Dead Hole, anyhow? Cochise says you shot a hoss of hisn." "I told you how that started," interposed Carmena. "It wasn't our fault that Cochise flew off the handle.
Yo' pa he sent a channelge to Mist' Vanrevel, an' Mist' Vanrevel 'fuse to fight him 'cause he say he don' b'lieve shootin' yo' pa goin' do yo' pa any good, an' he still got hope mekkin' good citizen outer him.

The range must run for thirty or forty miles from east to west, with few breaks and no peaks. We were not well the last day at Mis'hal. The Aòdeli women paint red lines under their eyes and down their noses and round their foreheads with a kind of earth-dye which they call hisn. Sometimes there is a round spot on the forehead and red triangles on the cheeks.
'Will ye tell me his name, man! sez he, kinder impatient; 'I'm in a hurry. Then I give him your handle an' bymeby he twisted your pedigree outer me, too. Not that he axes me any questions ter speak of, but somehow I slops over without thinkin' an' he listens sharp. 'You're a friend o' hisn? he says, quiet like. 'Well, I don't wonder none. That's a man! sez he.
I don't set up to be no better than my neighbours, specially with my tail snipped off the way 'tis, but I want you all to know Tedda's quit fightin' in harness or out of it, 'cep' when there's a born fool in the pasture, stuffin' his stummick with board that ain't rightly hisn, 'cause he hain't earned it." "Meanin' me, madam?" said the yellow horse.
"I jist want t' ask ye if that tarnal varmit, Williams, has been botherin' yew fellers any sence he started work on that new claim o' hisn. If they ever was a sneakin' whelp, he's it. He couldn't get possession o' Tad's tunnel; he darsent touch it, so he's gone an' started a tunnel on the other side o' that dyke.
But the Doctor got 'long fust rate, when he fust got here; he didn't drink much and he made heaps of money, he and a crony of hisn, named Squire Tinknor.
