And he can't go by train?" "What? With Beriah postmaster at East Harniss and always nosin' through every train that stops there? You can't fetch Trumet by train without stoppin' at East Harniss and What was that?" "I don't know. What was it?" "Sounded like somethin' outside that back winder." The two ran to the window and looked out.
"An' what th' hell are you nosin' around here for, anyway?" snarled M'Ginnis, shutting the heavy safe with a fierce slam; "since you've come in you can get out again right now!" Soapy seated himself upon a corner of the desk and placidly breathed out two spirals of cigarette smoke. "Heard about Hermy bein' married, Bud?" he enquired. "Married? You're a liar! Hermy married? It's not so!"
But don't hold off too long about it. Better married early than never. And if that writer-guy shoves in, poke him in the breadbasket hard! That'll settle him plenty. Better still, take him off to one side and talk to him. Tell'm you're a bad man, and that you staked that claim before he was dry behind the ears, and that if he comes nosin' around tryin' to file on it you'll beat his head off."
Ye set thar nosin' a handful o' rocks ez ef they war fitten ter eat! An' now look at the boy a stuffin' 'em in his pockets ter sag 'em down and tear 'em out fur me ter sew in ag'in. Waal, waal!
The landlord greeted her rather sullenly, his eyes heavy and red from lack of sleep. "Morning," he said, without attempting to rise. "Lie down thar, Towser; the lady don't likely want yer nosin' around. Yer a bit late fer breakfast; it's ginerally over with by eight o'clock." "I am not at all hungry," she answered. "Is it far to the post-office?" "'Bout two blocks, ter yer right.
"I 'lows Peter's mostly nosin' around when " "Thanks, I'll ride over." Jim made as though to ride off. He understood the spiteful nature of this little busybody, and was in no mood to listen to him now. But Smallbones was something of a leech when he chose.
Saxon looked to the San Francisco teamsters. "We'd come over to lend a hand, seein' as the Oakland boys was gettin' some the short end of it," one spoke up, "an' we've sure learned some scabs there's better trades than drivin' team. Well, me an' Jackson here was nosin' around to see what we can see, when your husband comes moseyin' along. When he " "Hold on," Jackson interrupted.
"You knew, of course, that I was a mining engineer?" he said at last, pulling up in his examination. "Well, I heard of you that onst at Dawson City," was the slow reply. "I supposed you were nosin' round like the rest." "Why, I didn't go as a mere prospector! I'd had my training at Montreal." And Anderson resumed his questions. But McEwen presently took no pains to answer them.
You see," he added triumphantly as he saw the start that she could not repress. "I've been nosin' around a little before I come in. I wasn't figgerin' on runnin' into Abe Catherson." He laughed thickly, as though some sort of passion surged over him. "So you're all alone here eh?" She grew weak at the significance of his words, and leaned against the window-sill for support.
Weary was ridin' the Razor Back this mornin' and he says he saw Dunlavey an' Yuma and some more Circle Cross guys nosin' around behind some brush on the other side of the creek. They all had rifles." Hollis's face paled slightly. "Where are the other men Train and the rest?" he inquired.
