If I sell 'em I must git somethin' that'll go jest as fur. You kin have 'em at $5 apiece." "Betsy," remonstrated the old man, "I'm afeard this 's wrong, and as a Magistrate I shouldn't allow hit. Hit's traffickin' with the inemy." "No, hit hain't," she asserted. "He's not a soljer. He's a citizen, and don't belong to the army.
Fwhat did I desart fer? Shure ev there was the ghost of an inemy round, it's meself that would be in the front now!
Didn't Biddy say she'd swear she heard him say he'd do it? and av he wouldn't boggle about his own sisther, it's little he'd mind what he'd do to an out an out inemy like Misther Martin." "Warn't that a knock at the hall-door, Sally?" "Run and see, girl; may-be it's the docthor back again; only mostly he don't mind knocking much."
"Sure, if we get sight of an inemy, I will do nothing to disgrace the name of Gillooly," answered Barney. Klitz muttered something in German, but what it was I could not make out. They were neither of them likely to fight for honour and glory; at the same time, I had little doubt but they would blaze away at an enemy, when they knew that by failing to do so they would lose their scalps.

Pat's Corkonian, he is; he'll be nearer th' inemy by a fut, I'll ingage yez."
"He minds me of a spalpeen of a dog I wance had, as was uncommon fond o' fightin' but niver even showed his teeth till he was within half a yard of his inemy, but, och! he gripped him then an' no mistake. You'll see, messmates, that we won't give 'em a broadside till we're within half pistol-shot."
As Whately stood fuming where his cousin had left him, Perkins approached for the first time since they had parted in anger the night before. "I reck'n Miss Baron's gone over ter the inemy," remarked the overseer. "What do you mean?" "Look yere, Leftenant, what's the use o' you bein' so gunpowdery with me? What's the use, I say?
