And whilst we was a-standing there in the dimmish light, here comes a couple of the hounds bulging in from under Jim's bed; and they kept on piling in till there was eleven of them, and there warn't hardly room in there to get your breath. By jings, we forgot to fasten that lean-to door!
"Susan," said he, "I don't want to git mad, I don't want to go out yander, snatch them chickens out of the coop an' make 'em nod at each other in the dark, but when you talk that way you almost drive me by jings, you almost drive me out there agin that tree, hard enough to butt the bark off.
Robinson, 'so we ha'ena seen the laddie for a while. 'He hasna wrote this week, remarked Jeannie. 'But of course you'll ha'e heard frae him, Christina' this with respectful diffidence. 'He's been busy at the shooting' Christina replied, wishing she had more news to give. 'I wisht I had a gun, observed Jimsie. 'I wud shoot the whuskers aff auld Tirpy. Jings, I wud that!
'Naething, answered Mac, and refused to be drawn into further conversation. Within half an hour she was back, flushed and bright of eye. She had on a pink print, crisp and fresh, a flowery hat, gloves carefully mended, neat shoes and transparent stockings. 'By Jings, ye're dressed to kill at a thoosan' yairds! Willie observed. Ignoring him, she looked anxiously for the other's approval.
"For a smart man," said he, "I reckon the General's got about as little sense as any human now alive. By jings, he's a crank; that's what's the matter with him; and the first thing he knows people will be keepin' out of his way." A light flashed from the passage and we saw Guinea and her mother standing on the log step, gazing toward us. "It's all right!" the old man cried.
I want a smoke. And you'll say, kind of careless like, as if it warn't anything, you'll say, 'Yes, I got my OLD pipe, and another one, but my tobacker ain't very good. And I'll say, 'Oh, that's all right, if it's STRONG enough. And then you'll out with the pipes, and we'll light up just as ca'm, and then just see 'em look!" "By jings, that'll be gay, Tom! I wish it was NOW!"
Marshall's words, for he was plunged into a brown study until the party had left Mr. Marshall sitting gloomily as before and were resuming the march. Then, out of earshot of the cabins and mill, he suddenly slapped his buckskin thigh and uttered an exclamation. "By jings!" he said. "I have it and those three fellows had it, too. We've overrun 'em.
At the time of the flood my folks knocked up a house just about where the ark landed, and I guess they've held on to it ever since. I don't know what business they went into, but they made money. Palford swears I've got three hundred and fifty thousand dollars a year. I wasn't going to call the man a liar; but I just missed it, by jings!" He was trying to "bluff it out." Somehow he felt he had to.
"God bless you!" He was going to make a dash at her again, but pulled himself up because he must. "No, by jings!" he said. "I'm not going to till you let me." "You see, it's true your head's not like mine," she said reasonably. "Men's heads are mostly not like women's. They're men, of course, and they're superior to women, but they're what I'd call more fluttery- like.
By jings, I most slumped through the floor! But there warn't no time to swap knives; the old man grabbed me by the hand and shook, and kept on shaking; and all the time how the woman did dance around and laugh and cry; and then how they both did fire off questions about Sid, and Mary, and the rest of the tribe.
