Bill inquired anxiously, "Did that Gledware you knew, live near Kansas City?" "He lived over in Indian Territory, last time I heard of him. But he was a roving devil he might be anywhere.
Claflin fought tooth and nail, despairingly, desperately, longing for the whistle that should announce the end. Just past the thirty-yard line Brimfield had a setback and her progress was halted when Gafferty was caught off-side. It became second down then with fifteen to go and Rollins trotted back up the field and held his arms out.
The next task was to apportion the remainder of our extremely reduced stock of provision between the two mules that my aunt and Lilla were to ride; and upon these mules, on the off-side away from the stirrup, I proposed to secure the light poles and skins of the raft.
