Doctor Carpy made it a point to go. He was usually needed professionally at Fourth of July celebrations. But on this occasion he was, in matter of fact, a sort of sponsor for the whole affair and he brought Sawdy, Lefever and Tenison along. The four drove out in the smartest wagon and behind the best team in the Kitchen barn, Kitchen with them and McAlpin driving.
"I once tried a divorce action. Fuss against Fuss; and another, Love against Love. Do you really want this book?" "Not if you are using it," replied Tutt. "I just wanted to show an authority to Mr. Sorg, the president of the Fat and Skinny Club. You know our application for a certificate of incorporation was denied yesterday by Justice McAlpin." "No, I didn't know it," returned Mr. Tutt. "Why?"
McAlpin stood in the gang-way talking to some man who evidently caught a glimpse of Laramie, for he said rudely and loud enough for Kate to hear: "Hell, McAlpin! There comes your dead man now!" Kate recognized the heavy voice of Carpy and shrank back. The doctor, McAlpin behind him dumbly staring, confronted Laramie at the door: "What are you doin' here, Jim?" he demanded.
McAdam; it's plain sinful to let the strength go to waste." "If I was Theodora Glenn," Mary Terhune went on, monotonously stirring the cold liquid in her cup, "I'd have my eye on that girl of hers." And now the ingredients were prepared for the mixing! "What's Priscilla Glenn got to do with Jerry-Jo McAlpin?" Mrs. McAdam asked sharply, fixing her little ferret eyes on the speaker.
"We'll try to make that thirty-two after this week." McAlpin touched his cap. "Thank you kindly, sir, I'm sure. It costs like hell to live out here, Mr. de Spain." "Lefever says you live off him at poker." "Ha, ha! Ha, ha, sir! John will have his joke. He's always after me to play poker with him I don't like to do it. I've got a family to support he ain't.
McAlpin, their giant fullback, proved a tower of strength, and when he was given the ball plunged through the line like a thunderbolt. There seemed to be no holding him, and his team backed him up so powerfully that he made his distance easily on the four downs.
Coming down the Turkey he met Van Horn. They had a bunch of Barb's boys with them driving in some cattle." "Whose cattle?" "Punk says when he run into 'em they was roundin' up yours." "Was Punk sober?" asked Laramie. "He sure was," replied McAlpin.
Late in the afternoon, she got Spider Legs up again, saddled him and, telling Kelly she might not be back that night, rode away. It was dark by the time she reached town and leaving her horse with McAlpin she crossed the street from the barn and walked hurriedly around the corner to Belle's. The front door stood open and the red-shaded lamp burned low on the dining-room table.
"I'm telling you, Sawdy," expostulated McAlpin, in the manner of an ultimatum, "I'm a patient man. But you've got to get out of that room." Sawdy stood a statue of dignity and defiance: "And I'm telling you, Hop Scotch, I'll get out of that room when I get good and ready." "A big piece of ceiling came down last night," thundered McAlpin.
"She's gone to McAlpin. They leave for the States to-night. It's you and I alone now to the end of the way." "Husband, husband! We've been hard on her; we've driven her to " "Hush, you! foolish one. Would you defy God? Each one of us walks the path our feet are set upon. 'Twas fore-ordained and her being ours makes no difference.
