I'd take it friendly of you to put Moore's trial off fer a while till I'm able to ride to Krernmlin'. Maybe then I can tell you a story." Burley threw up his hands in genuine apprehension. "Not much! You ain't agoin' to tell me no story!... But I'll wait on you, an' welcome. Reckon I owe you a good deal on this rustler round-up. Wade, thet must have been a man-sized fight, even fer you.
I just made for that cave and hid myself. That's the sort of a girl I am." "Did you, honey? Do you know, that strikes me as mighty sensible? I don't hold much with girls saving men's lives outside the movies, where they're well paid for it. It strikes me life-saving is a man-sized job." "But you're all scratched! What in the world "
"And you can guess who I think is behind him." "'Gink' Cummings," said Brennan. "You're right again," the mayor thumped the desk with his fist. "It's the 'Gink, as sure as I'm sitting here. That's what I told those who were here to see me today and everyone of them called me a fool. I may be, but I have a man-sized hunch that I'm not." "Gink" Cummings, boss of the underworld, behind Gibson?
She pushed back her hat until its crown rested against the rough boards, and cuddled the little brown bird against her cheek again, and talked to it caressingly. Though she seemed unconscious of his presence, she heard every word that Robert Grant Burns was muttering to himself. Some of the words were plain, man-sized swearing, if she were any judge of language.
He was now in corduroy trousers, khaki shirt open at the throat, a white boating hat, and marvelous canvas-and-leather shoes "On the job there, old Will! Say, my Lord, this is living, to come back and get into a regular man-sized pair of pants. They can talk all they want to about the city, but my idea of a good time is to loaf around and see you boys and catch a gamey bass!"
He's hoping to bump into a whaler and get down on it to 'Frisco." "Your guess is just as good as any," the Canadian admitted. "He's cut out a man-sized job for himself. I'll say that for him. It's a five-to-one bet he never gets through alive, even if we don't nab him." "What else can he do? He's got to keep going or be dragged back to be hanged. I'd travel too if I were in his place."
"And it's got a town beside it, and in the town there's a house that looks over the water. Why, Bill, she's as good as found!" "New York runs about a dozen miles along the shore of that river," groaned Bill Gregg. "A dozen miles!" gasped Ronicky. He turned in his seat and stared at his companion. "Bill, you sure are making a man-sized joke. There ain't that much city in the world.
"You've certainly picked out a few man-sized jobs for yourself: to make a success of the straight life for yourself to come out ahead of the police and your old pals to make Maggie love the Ten Commandments to put me across to make Dick into a level-headed citizen. Any other little item you'd like to take on?" Larry ignored the irony of the question.
"I think I'll go over and see what's keeping them so late in bed," he said, and left the house. "He takes it pretty hard," said Jordan, his scarred face twisted with Satanic mirth, "but don't go rubbin' it into him, Buck, or you'll be havin' a man-sized fight on your hands. I'd jest about as soon mix with the chief as cross Haines. When he starts the undertaker does the finishin'!"
So the Kid, trying very, very hard to act just like his Daddy Chip and the boys, flopped the blanket vigorously this way and that in an effort to get it straightened, flopped himself on his knees and folded the blanket round and round him until he looked like a large, gray cocoon, and cuddled himself under the ledge with his head on the bag of doughnuts and his wide eyes fixed upon the first pale stars and his mind clinging sturdily to his mission and to this first real, man-sized adventure that had come into his small life.
