"It stood to reason that taking money off'n a man who'd play such a game was inhumanity in the first degree, so when Pete's last dollar departed I entered that horse-race with a gun, just as I had no business to, and I says to the tin-horn, 'Look-a-here, you put that money across the board, or I'll play a tune on you, and so he shouldn't think I was interferin' out of an idle curiosity, I pointed the weapon at him.
Say, I'll shoot that feller, sure 'less some interferin' cuss gits along an' does him in fust." "What's up? Anything fresh?" For answer Arizona spat forcibly into the little pool of tobacco-juice on the ground before him. Then, with a vicious clenching of the teeth "He's a swine." "Which is a libel on hogs," observed the other, with a smile.
"Don't you try to interfere with me," said the man who paid the telephone bill. "I'll not submit to such an indignity." "I'm not the only one that interferes. You fixed up quite an entertainment for me the other night, didn't you? Wouldn't you kinda call that interferin' some? I sure ought to comb yore hair for it." Bromfield made a hasty decision to get out. He started for the door.
"Only that we've given the enemy's sharpshooters a chance all the forenoon without interferin' to any great extent, an' now we're countin' on takin' our turn. Fifty men have been detailed to pick off as many of St. Leger's force as we can draw a bead on. I reckon workin' in the trenches won't be a healthy job from this time on.
All this runnin' o' me and interferin' with me is played! I'm tired of it. You kin tell him so from me." "Then you have quarrelled?" "Yes. As much as any man can quarrel with a darned fool who can't take a hint." "One moment. Have you quarrelled about Polly Baxter?" "Yes," he answered querulously. "Of course I have. What does he mean by interfering? "Now listen to me, Mr. Bassett," I interrupted.
Let Dickie think he is being hunted, and he'll be a bushranger, or a brigand chief, or a pirate, or something desperately wicked in that amazin' head of his, and you won't get a-nigh him for weeks, not a man Jack of you! Dear, dear, dear, you men a set of interferin', mutton-headed creatures! 'He's an unregenerate youth that boy of yours, ma'am. 'Is he, indeed? Mrs.
"You've common ground in the Widow-woman." "The ?" "The Widow at Windsor, as they call her." "Oh! I thought for a moment " "There's widows and widows," Mr Rogers blinked mischievously. "But look here what's this I'm told about your interferin' down at the Harbour Board, tryin' to get the Commissioners to regylate the ladin' o' vessels?" "Well, and why not?" asked 'Bias. "Why not?
Here Pam, take hold o' this sovereign and keep it careful!" "Mine too. . . . That makes the wager, eh?" "For five pounds?" "Five pounds. Right. "Boats?" "I don't care. Our own two, or draw lots for any two here, as you please." "But gentlemen!" interposed the Hon. Secretary. "Now, don't you start interferin'" Bias turned on him sullenly. "Else you might chance to get what you don't like."
That's just what he's interferin' for just to carry out his darned fool ideas o' gettin' a wife for me; just his vanity to say HE'S made the match. It's ME that he wants to marry to that Baxter girl not himself. He's too cursed selfish for that." I suppose I was not different from ordinary humanity, for in my unexpected discomfiture I despised Captain Jim quite as much as I did the man before me.
Jerome 'ull do you no good by his interferin'. Dissenters are not at all looked on i' Milby, an' he's as nervous as iver he can be; he'll come back as ill as ill, an' niver let me hev a wink o' sleep all night. Mrs. Jerome had been frightened at the mention of a mob, and her retrospective regard for the religious communion of her youth by no means inspired her with the temper of a martyr.
