The girl went straight on, pouring out her sentences with a driven, desperate eagerness. "I didn't mean to do it, though God knows I didn't mean to do it! He treated me mighty sorry it was lowdown and mean all the way through, the way he done me but I didn't mean him no real harm. I was only aimin' to skeer him into doin' the right thing by me. It was accidental-like it really was, mister!
It was when I was pulling out Big Mack, poor fellow, from under the heap, that he took me unawares." "That's so," assented Yankee. "Blamed lowdown trick." "And, oh, I will be praying God to give me strength just to meet him! I will ask no more. But," he added, in bitter despair, "there is no use for me to pray. Strength will come to me no more."
My great-great-great-gran'father en yo' great-great-great-great-gran'father was Ole Cap'n John Smith, de highest blood dat Ole Virginny ever turned out, en his great-great-gran'mother, or somers along back dah, was Pocahontas de Injun queen, en her husbun' was a nigger king outen Africa en yit here you is, a slinkin' outen a duel en disgracin' our whole line like a ornery lowdown hound!

And just as I was entirely friendly with both of them it would occur to me that I hadn't called on Miss C. for three weeks and that Bannister, of the Alfalfa Delts, was waiting for Miss D. after chapel every morning and would doubtless make a lowdown, underhanded attempt to talk politics to her in the spring.
"Oh, Bo please don't please don't. Wait!" implored Helen. "Bo it's between you an' me," said Carmichael. "Tom, I'll tell you," whispered Bo. "It was a lowdown, cowardly trick.... Roy was surrounded and shot from behind Beasley by that four-flush Riggs!"

He'd been on the Bowery of Coney Island that night, Josiah havin' refused to go to such a lowdown place with him.
