They're the durndest meanest mules that ever a man tried to drive. That there off-swing mule'd " "We don't want to hear nothin' about your mules. We'll look in the wagon ourselves." The search developed nothing. The Lieutenant-Colonel came back to Si, angrier than ever. "Look here, Klegg, you're foolin' me, an' I won't stand it. I'll have the truth out o' you if I have to kill you. Understand?"
And in this case, as in many others, for want of a little knowledge of the peculiarities of a mule's feet, and the injury that results from over-growth, the animal had to suffer, and was permanently injured. No. 4 is the off-swing, or middle-leader mule. She is perfectly sound, of good height, a good eater, and a great worker. She is also well adapted for packing, and a tolerably good rider.
You kin see their shots strikin' down the hill there, and everywhere, where they ain't doin' nothin'. But that feller's out for business. I've bin tryin' to locate him. He's somewhere closter than any o' the others. Their bullets don't quite reach, while his goes home every time. See there." The off-swing mule dropped this time.
"If you don't stop beatin' them mules, by thunder, I'll make you." "Make's a good word," responded Groundhog, giving the off-swing mule a wicked "biff." "I never see anything come out of Posey County that could make me do what I didn't want to." Si struck at him awkwardly. He was so hampered by his weight of soggy clothes that there was little force or direction to his blow.
