But being a family quarrel, this was arranged between the two. Mr. Weldon says that he feared Mr. Lincoln would win, as he had said with unusual vehemence: "Now, by Jing! I will beat you, boys!" By Jing! Byron found a St. Gingo's shrine in his Alpine travels.
One evening, of that summer, Abe came out to the Traylors' with a letter in his hat for Sarah. "How's business?" Samson asked. "Going to peter out I reckon," Abe answered with a sorrowful look. "It will leave me badly in debt. I wanted something that would give me a chance for study and I got it. By jing! It looks as if I was going to have years of study trying to get over it.
"Jing! but that was a near squeak," he exclaimed. "Another half minute and you'd have beaten me." Barraclough's muscles tightened and his mouth went hard and straight. So the bluff had failed after all. He was spotted. That idiot from the benches had given them away.
Promise me that what we have said may be a secret even from your own family till after Monday." Elizabeth went forward and spoke confidentially. The man liked her even better than before. "I'll do it, by jing!" he exclaimed. "They'll be wantin' t' know soon's ever I get home what we done about it, an' fur once they'll suck their thumbs.
I jing! if we could jest make out somehow 'r other to lay our claws on the beasteses aforehand " We had reached the cliff and were once more peering down at the enemy's camp.
Lincoln; "well, I couldn't come as near to fighting every day and stand it. If my dog and Bill's dog across the street walked around each other and growled for half a day, and then lay down together, as Carvel and Whipple do, by Jing, I'd put pepper on their noses " "I reckon Colonel Carvel isn't a fighting man," said some one, at random.
He only splashed and shook himself, scattering a very geyser of salt water on the tugging boys, and barked louder and sharper still as if he were doing his best to talk. "Jing!" exclaimed Dan, giving up all efforts to manage him. "I never saw such a durned chump of a dog! I'm wet to the skin." "Oh, he wants something!" said softer-hearted Freddy. "He is trying to tell us something, Dan."
All those fancies of his for better, higher things had been only "pipe dreams." But jing, it would be hard to give up! Dan looked out at the quadrangle where he had led so many a merry game; at the ball field, scene of battle and victory that even Dud Fielding could not dispute; at the long stretch of the study hall windows opposite; at the oriel of the chapel beyond.
Then the team and rack on the smooth-cut meadow and Bill on the load, and John and I pitching on; and the talk and badinage that goes on, the excitement over disturbed field mice, the discussion of the best methods of killing woodchucks, tales of marvellous exploits of loaders and stackers, thrilling incidents of the wet year of '98 when two men and one team saved four acres of hay by working all night "with lanterns, I jing" much talk of how she goes on, "she" being the hay, and no end of observations upon the character, accomplishments, faults, and excesses of the sedate old horses waiting comfortably out in front, half hidden by the mountain of hay above them and nibbling at the tumbles as they go by.
"By jing, I should like it proper well! But, to be sure, now, sir general, you look like a mighty small man to fight them great big tories there, on Pedee. But daddy says as how the heart is all: and he says, too, that though you are but a little man, you have a monstrous great heart."
