He stuck the pipe in the corner of his mouth, and held up the fly with that interest which seems fatuous to one who has no sporting blood in his veins. "Last time I used that fly was when I was down here three weeks ago the day I lost the big one. Ain't it a beauty, eh? Tied it myself. And, by the great immortal Jehosaphat, it fetches me the rainbows, too. Good mind to try it on the big one.
And, by the way, Fatty, if you want to stop an hour or two to see the widow Jones's pretty daughter, I guess no great harm will be done." Jehosaphat giggled but then his face clouded. "But Mistress Putnam wants to take the roan herself this afternoon. The trial comes off, you know." "Oh, it is not a trial it is only an examination. And it is all fiddlesticks, anyhow.
"Oh, I can get to Salem by three o'clock, by fast riding. I will leave the roan horse for you." "Saddle the grey mare, Jehosaphat." And thus it was that his brother Joseph, looking out of his sitting-room window, about an hour after his arrival at home, saw Master Thomas Putnam, on his well-known grey mare, riding along the road past his house on the most direct route to Ipswich.
Then... lemme see... yep, I rented two barns in Glen Ellen, an' I ordered fifty tons of hay an' a carload of bran an' barley from the store in Glenwood you see, I gotta feed all them fourteen horses, an' shoe 'm, an' everything.

I can't see any particular reason why a woman should be tied all her life to her husband's apron strings or whatever he wears and waste the talents she has. It's wicked, when she might be the making of some man who is worth something, and who lives somewhere." Her husband got up. "Jehosaphat!" he cried, "I never heard such talk in my life."
Peters, indicate that this particular slab was carved during the first portion of this king's reign, and some conception of its great antiquity may be gained when it is stated that he was a contemporary of Ahab and Jehosaphat; he was born not more than a century later than Solomon, and he reigned three centuries before Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon.
Putnam, a little anxious to cut short the conversation, as she wished to get ready for her ride to Salem. Going to the barn, Master Joseph soon found Jehosaphat. "How do, Fatty!" this was the not very dignified diminutive into which Jehosaphat had dwindled in common use. "How are you getting along?" "Fair to middlin, sir. Not as well though as on the old place, Master Joseph."
The others swerved in beside him, the bowlegged young puncher on the right with his hand at his hip. "Jumping Jehosaphat!" he exulted. "We shore have got him, Mr. Knowles, the blasted " His thin lips closed tight to shut in the oath as he turned his gaze on the lovely flushed face of the girl beside him. When his cold gray eyes met hers they lighted with a glow like that of fire through ice.
