The man who danced like an angel turned halfway round, and looked at the cowboy over his shoulder. He was irritated. "When what?" he snapped. "When you goin' to onload my stock?" "In the morning." "No, sir. You'll have it done right now. That stock has been more'n two days without water." "I'm not responsible for that." "No, but you'll be responsible if the train ain't onloaded now," said Dave.
But they wuzn't cabbages, they wuz some kind of a water plant that growed right there in the water. As we sailed along some queer lookin' boats, lookin' some like corn houses standin' on end, bulged out towards us from the shore.
