They formed a solemn, wide circle about the hat, gazing at it in manifest alarm, and seized every few moments by little stampedes of panicky flight. "It's the varmint," said one in awed tones, "that flits up and down in the low grounds at night, saying, 'Willie-wallo!" "It's the venomous Kypootum," proclaimed another. "It stings after it's dead, and hollers after it's buried."
Well, this kid comes to the station-house and hollers that she's stole a ring and somebody that ain't had anything to do with it is gettin' pinched fer stealin' it. The kid acts plumb bug-house, but Sarge he says fer me to come around and see wot's up. Wot is she, dippy? Did she re'ly steal a di'mond? This don't look like wot you'd call a likely place to find a di'mond."
One of the soldiers seed me and he hollers 'look at that rat run'." Missus Ann, and all the white folks went down to Fairhaven wharf to see dat big shep". "I stayed on de plantation awhile after de war and heped de Missus in de house. Den I went away". "Ise had eight chillun. Den his brother died too. I said he ought ter died instid o his brother." "Why?"
They never was expectin' anybody fool enough to walk right into that room and start fightin'. We went back and had a look at the door. "It wasn't none too husky. John Bard, he tried the latch, soft, but the thing was locked, and when he pulled there was a snap. "'Who's there? hollers someone inside. "We froze ag'in' the side of the house, lookin' at each other pretty sick.
Even my own babies gape at me kind of round-eyed when I take them in my arms. But I'm wrong there, and I know I'm wrong. My little Dinkie will always love me. I know that by the way his little brown arms cling about my wind-roughened neck, by the way he burrows in against my breast and hangs on to me and hollers for his Mummsy when she's out of sight. He's not a model youngster, I know.
This is the clearest case of going back on an old friend I ever saw. If this is the way you fellows get scared because a sham reformer gets up and hollers against the road, then I want to serve notice on you that I'm not made of that kind of stuff. When I go into a fight, I go in to stay, and you can't pull me out by the coat-tails in favour of a saint who's never done a lick of work for the road.
And at last he'd fix it on poor old Barnes, and then tell him that if he wanted to practice ventriloquism he'd better wait till after church. And then the frog'd give six or seven more hollers, so that the minister would stop and look at Barnes, and Barnes'd get up and skip down the aisle and go home furious about it.
"Well, 'long 'bout noon he come gallopin' up, wi' his big black horse all a lather, to where we was layin' in the scrub cursin' the flies an' the department an' the outbreaks o' Bohs. "'Come on, boys! he hollers, wi' the glitter in his eye; 'Oi found the way! All together now, an' we'll see the top o' yon hill or we'll see hell this day!
You want something short and easy to say." "What's the matter with 'Say'?" said Ben. "That's always easy to remember. I notice that when a man wants to call another on the street he just hollers 'Say, and half a dozen fellows turn around." "Then that makes it too common," decided Stella. "What name would you suggest, Ted? He's got to have two names."
That laddy, in hunting around, has struck upon some hole that leads out, and he's forgot, or else it was so hard to find his way back to me, he has gone round to that place, and now hollers down at me.
