'By the hokey, this is too bad intirely, says the dhraggin; 'but if you won't let go, says he, 'by the powers o' wildfire, I'll give you a ride that 'ill astonish your siven small sinses, my boy'; and, with that, away he flew like mad; and where do you think he did fly? bedad, he flew sthraight for Dublin, divil a less.

But I gotter thinkin' her over, and by hokey if it didn't jest come home to me. Times was when my dooryard was the puttiest around all Stanhope, with the flowers abloomin', an' every scrap tidied up; but in them happy days Mandy an' the kids was there, ye see; an' sense they was took it 'peared like I never cared what things looked like; an' that's a fact, boys."
"A reg'lar skunk by the living hokey!" he panted, pointing to the faint haze that was again slowly rising above the invisible road. "They backed down as soon as they saw our hand, and got a hole through their new sheriff's hat. But what are you lookin' at? What's up?"

"But I hate to see them hunted, and wounded, and killed, they suffer so much." "Suffer? Suffer to be killed! Bears suffer to be killed? By hokey, they don't indeed! Not they, they're used to it as eels are to bein' skinned. And haint you heern of the bear-hunt we're goin' to have to-night?" "No, I have not."
I recollect I was real put out because my name wasn't Frank Ford By hokey!" He laid an impressive forefinger upon Ford's knee and tapped several times.

"You told her it was.
No sooner had he recovered than he leaped into the air, making a frantic clutch at something, but apparently without success. "Dern it," hissed he, "there goes my teeth; blowed out again, by hokey!"

"Red, by the hokey, over the world; however, to avoid an argument, even if I did, in mistake, say black, the whiskers were red in the mane time; an', as I sed, barrin' Rousin' Redhead's, that was thransported, a never laid my eyes on so red, nor so big I pair." "He can't be the fellow I suspect, then for his, by all accounts, are unusually large and black."
Whenever you pay more than 10 cents a cake for soap you buy bad perfumes and labels. But 50 cents is doing very well for a young man in your generation, position and condition. As I said, you're a gentleman. They say it takes three generations to make one. They're off. Money'll do it as slick as soap grease. It's made you one. By hokey! it's almost made one of me.
Dick dropped to his knees behind Tom Reade, and, reaching for the cords that bound Tom's wrists behind his back, began to gnaw. "Well, by hokey!" gasped Tom. "I never had head enough to think of that." "If we were gagged like Greg and Dan, we couldn't do the trick," Dave rejoined. "Come here, Harry; get in front of me and I'll gnaw your wrists free."
