"Don't be an old woman, Lute." " ... if you can do it safe. I owe Luck Cullison much as you do, but...." Again they fell to whispers. The next word that came to Curly clearly was his own name. But it was quite a minute before he gathered what they were saying. "Luck Cullison went his bail. I learnt it this mo'ning." "The son-of-a-gun. It's a cinch he's a spy.
This ditch is full of water. When we passed down it was empty," he said. Lee crossed over and stood by his side, a puzzled frown on his face.

"I don't see how it could 'a' come hyer, for Bill Weston he's the ditch rider went to Mesa this mo'ning, and couldn't 'a' got back to turn it in."

"Oh yes," he agreed, "I guess we'll have to give you a successor there, in any event.

Turning his ferocious scowl full upon me, the savage-looking darky handed me the kids.
Neil came to the door in answer to his knock and within he could see the villainous faces at bloodshot eyes of two of the others peering at him. "Good mo'ning, Captain Neil. I'm on my way to keep that appointment I mentioned last night I'd ce'tainly be glad to have you go along. Nothing like being on the spot to prevent double-crossing." "I'm with you in the fling of a cow's tail. Come on, boys."
But for my friend if you can give me back the clean memory of Dave you'll have done a big thing for me, Mr. O'Connor." "It's only a working theory, but this is what I'm getting at. You and Henderson had arranged to take an early start on a two days' deer hunt next mo'ning. That's what you told me, isn't it?" "We were to start about four. Yes, sir." "Well, let's suppose a case.
"I'm glad to know that nobody has been telling untruths, and I beg your pardon, Unc' Billy, for thinking you might have been." "Don' mention it, Brer Skunk, don' mention it. Ah'll be looking fo' yo' to-morrow mo'ning," replied Unc' Billy, with a sly wink that made Jimmy laugh aloud.
"I reckon, Bucky, the band has begun to play," the rider told himself aloud. "Mebbe we better move on down in time for the music."
