"So you thought you were going into business on your own!" snarled Guffey, and his fist, which was under Peter's nose, gave an upward poke that almost dislocated Peter's neck. "Aha!" thought Peter. "Nelse Ackerman has given me away!" "You thought you were going to make your fortune and retire for life on your income!" Yes, that was it, surely!
Nelse took the lead rope from Bud and the two started off up the creek, meaning to strike the road from Little Lost to Crater, the county seat beyond Gold Gap mountains. Bud rode on to the ranch with his boss, and tried to answer Dave's questions satisfactorily without relating his own prowess or divulging too much of Stopper's skill; which was something of a problem for his wits.
"Pandemolium." "She kickened and fit with me," Tony cried angrily. "I must box her." "Pandemolium?" little Fay repeated inquiringly. "What nelse?"
