He's got the best head for range work of any man in the country! He's square, ma'am. An' there ain't no man monkeyin' with him.

"It's not a stone, but what you first supposed it a shell-fish." "That big thing a shill-fish! Arrah now, captin, aren't you jokin'?" "No, indeed.

"Hoots! havers!" exclaimed Ian, pouring out some of the liquid; "ye're jokin'." "In truth we are not, then," said Mabberly; "for we are all total abstainers."

"No; this ain't my day for jokin'. You want to put them stakes o' mine back." She stood on guard till it was done. "And now I'd advise you, like a mother, to back-track home.

I tuk them for the same chaps I hed seed parley vooin' at the craps-table; an' tho't they wur only jokin', till one of them gin me a sockdolloger over the head, an' fired a pistol.
