She didn't seem to be playin' one against the other, either. Looked like careless work to me. Sadie gets almost peeved with her. Then one night at our house a lot of the mystery was cleared up by some friendly joshin' across the dinner table.
We could see the boy fighting to get her under control, as she sped like a bullet down the track. "I guess Pete ain't usin' the right langwige," said the boy called Chick, with a wide grin. "Maybe she ain't listenin' good," added another boy. "Cut out the joshin' 'n' get her blankets ready," said Blister with a frown. "I think we'd better start," suggested Judge Dillon.
"Then I'll prove it," says he, "right after dinner." "I'll help you, Robert," says Marjorie. "My dear sister," says he, "please consider the size of the Pyxie's galley." So, as there didn't seem to be any more competition, after we'd finished everything in sight we left the two of 'em joshin' away merry, doin' the dishes. Later on, while Ferdie's pokin' around, he makes a discovery.
A-hangin' on all night, alive once in a while, maybe, but the best you could say for him the rest of the time was a hope that he wasn't dead. And now coming at us with the airy persiflage, the first regular breath he's drawed. Fat! It was me he meant to indicate, wasn't it? He was joshin' me! Say, Steve, ain't he the merry little joker? Me fat!
The men crowded in and gazed curiously at the kyacks then at Sundown. Shoop strode forward. "The game's up, Sun. We want the Mexican." "This is me ranch," said Sundown. "I got the papers here. You fellas is sure welcome only they ain't goin' to be no shootin' or such-like. I ain't joshin' this time." A voice broke the succeeding silence. "If the Mexican is in there, we want him that's all."
"It'll have a pantomime show beat to death on quiet," says I. "Put me on the door, will you, so's I can keep awake joshin' the sidewalk cop?" Mr. Robert says he thinks that'll be a good place for me, as they ain't goin' to let anyone in without a ticket and I'm used to shuntin' cranks.
"But say, Boca, what made me sore was the way them hombres out there got fresh, joshin' you and askin' you to sing, jest like they had a rope on you " "You think of that Malvey?" "Well, I ain't forgittin' the way he " Boca's eyes flashed. "Yes! But here it is different. The Spider, he is my friend. It is that when I have rested and eaten he will ask me to sing. Manuelo will play the guitar.
Robert's fancy joshin'. Anyway, I'd stand in line waitin' for a thing like that to happen again. The way it begun was when I runs across this new girl in the filin' room and finds her snifflin' over one of the index cases. She's bitin' her lips to keep from doing it and she's red way up behind her ears; so I knows she's more mad than sorry.
Shore I " "Cut out the joshin'," rang out Monty's strident voice. It had as decided an effect as any preceding words or action. Perhaps it was the last thing needed to transform these men, doing unaccustomed duty as escorts of beautiful women, to their natural state as men of the wild. "Tell us what's what," said Stewart, cool and grim.
"What you say if we kill a chicken for supper and celebrate." "G'wan, you're joshin' me!" "Nope. I like chicken. And I got one that needs killin'; a no-account ole hen what won't set and won't lay." "Then we'll ring her doggone head off, eh?" "Somethin' like that only I ain't jest hatin' that there hen. She ain't no good, that's all." Young Pete pondered, watching Annersley's grave, bearded face.
