McCoy finished the last banana, drained the mug, and looked slowly around. In his eyes was a smile of tenderness as he said: "Well, Captain, we might as well drive as burn. Your decks are not going to hold out forever. They are hotter this morning. You haven't a pair of shoes I can wear? It is getting uncomfortable for my bare feet."
I'll call on Mr. Osgood to-morrow the first thing I do no, the second." "What is the first? if I may ask." "To close the agency of our present Boston representatives, Messrs. Sternberg, Bloom, and McCoy. And now tell me the news about Mr. Charles Wilkinson, the hero of the Hurd trolley schedule." "Mr. Wilkinson is about to extend his responsibilities in connection with the Hurd family."
With them, part of the time, were George and Ollie Shepherd; other members of their band were Bud Singleton, Bob Moore, Clel Miller and his brother, Arthur McCoy; others who came and went from time to time were regularly connected with the bigger operations. It would be wearisome to recount the long list of crimes these men committed for ten or fifteen years after the war.
Hammond was mostly with Steele; Sanger sent to McClernand, and McCoy, myself, and John Taylor were with you and Stuart. At about half-past three I got your permission to go to Giles Smith's skirmish-line, and, thinking I saw evidence of the enemy weakening, I hurried back to you and reported my observations.
Now, as every one must know, a dab on the nose is painful; moreover, it sometimes produces blood. Dan McCoy, who also inherited a shortish temper from his father, feeling the pain, and seeing the blood, suddenly flushed to the temples, and administered to Matt a sounding slap on the side of the head, which sent him tumbling on the grass. But Matt was not conquered, though overturned.
It was from McCoy and it read: Rock here with attachment papers to tie us up pending payment of claim bought by him from Canners' Supply Company. We have until four o'clock to answer. Wire what to do. Gregory glanced at his watch as he handed the message to Dickie Lang. Jumping to the deck of the Pelican he found Tom Howard. "Tom," he said, "I want you to put to sea at once.
One of the first called was a Tennesseean, named McCoy. He answered boldly: "I'm not going." "What's the matter, now?" demanded the sergeant. "I didn't come here to work; and if you can't board me without, you may send me home," replied the fearless man. "Well! well! you'll be attended to," growled the sergeant, and proceeded with the roll.
Himself and the ten Malaitans, being bushmen, were too ignorant of the sea to dare the long passage from Guadalcanar. On the way, he had raided the little islet of Ugi, sacked the store, and taken the head of the solitary trader, a gentle-souled half-caste from Norfolk Island who traced back directly to a Pitcairn ancestry straight from the loins of McCoy of the Bounty.
Major Sanger's intelligence, quick perception, and rapid execution, were of very great value to me, especially in bringing into line the batteries that cooperated so efficiently in our movements. Captains McCoy and Dayton, aides-de-camp, were with me all the time, carrying orders, and acting with coolness, spirit, and courage. To Surgeon Hartshorne and Dr.
"It is heaven upon earth!" exclaimed Brown, as they began to push into the heart of the lovely scene. "Humph! It's not all gold that glitters," growled McCoy, with a sarcastic smile.
