Then it began to smoke and burn under the overload. The plastic shell cracked and hot copper and silver splattered out of it. The kid screamed as the molten metal burned his hand. Mike the Angel put a hand against the kid's chest and shoved. As the boy toppled backward, Mike turned to face the other boy. Only it wasn't a boy.
"That's just like Carl, to pick on a kid that has nobody to fight his battles for him and is too small to fight his own. I'm glad you were around to take the kid's part." "I suppose Carl will run right to Buck, now, and they'll hatch up some scheme to get even with you," remarked Herb. "I don't care what they do," returned Bob. "It's too bad there's a bunch like that in this town.
He thought the kid's face looked red, as if it had fever, and he reached down and touched anxiously the hand that was uncovered. The hand was warm too warm, in Bud's opinion. It would be just his luck if the kid got sick, he'd have to pack it clear in to Alpine in his arms.
"'Now you're coming it, I says. 'This cold reserve is breaking up at last. That little touch about the piano almost makes us brothers. What's the youngest kid's name? I asks him. "'Thomas, says he. 'He's just getting well from the measles. "'I feel like I'd known you always, says I. 'Now there was just one more are you doing right well with the caffy, now? "'Pretty well, he says.
"We court criticism, but this is mere abuse. I appeal to these gentlemen to say whether this, for instance, is not bright and interesting." He picked up the current number of Peaceful Moments, and turned to the Kid's page. "This," he said, "describes a certain ten-round unpleasantness with one Mexican Joe.
That five hundred dollars might get one of 'em, too." "Somehow I believe he is alive. His enemies have taken him away somewhere probably up into the hills." "But why?" "You ought to know that better than I do. What could they gain by it?" He scratched his gray head. "Search me. They couldn't aim to hold him till after the trial. That would be a kid's play."
I purposely refused to let you to, when you wanted to go away the first time, partly on the kid's account, partly because I could hardly bear to let you go. Mostly because I wanted to make him boil over and show his teeth, on the chance that you'd be able to size him up. "You see, I knew him from the ground up.
We're real ashamed of ourselves." Irish tested his tongs as he had been told to do. "But we'd rather be ashamed than good, any old time." The Little Doctor giggled behind the Kid's tousled curls, and reached out a slim hand once more to give Pink's tongs the expert twist he was trying awkwardly to learn. "I'm sorry for Miguel; he's got lovely eyes, anyway." "Yes, ain't he?"
"It shall stretch like kid's leather, man," said the glover, "if thou wilt but be ruled, and say what thou wilt take for thy morning's draught." "Whatever thou wilt, father," answered the armourer, carelessly, and relapsed into the analysis of Catharine's speech to him. "She spoke of my warm heart; but she also spoke of my reckless hand.
"But, Ike, you know that the Apostle calls those who belong to the church 'saints of God." "Saints, eh? Well, I aint no saint, I can tell you that. Guess I'm out of this combination. No, sir, I aint no paradox paragon, I mean." Ike remembered the Kid's correction. His disappointment and perplexity were quite evident.
