And by the ghost of Orson Hyde, when they came to wash the paint off that child it was an Injun! Bless my soul, you don't know anything about married life. It is a perfect dog's life, sir a perfect dog's life. You can't economize. It isn't possible. I have tried keeping one set of bridal attire for all occasions. But it is of no use.
Orson Phelps has only those unconventional and humorous qualities of the bear which make the animal so beloved in literature; and one does not think of Old Phelps so much as a lover of nature, to use the sentimental slang of the period, as a part of nature itself.
Then that's what all those thin little chaps are who have been dancing with those pretty American girls. They're sort of ratty looking, aren't they? What do they call 'em? That's a nice-looking one, over there no, no! dancing with the girl in grey, I mean. If that's one I'd like to dance with him, Orson. Good land, what would the Winnebago ladies say! What do they call 'em, I wonder."
"Buy it, Orson," said his wife, with authority. "We'll take a chance on it. If it isn't the right thing, we can sell it to the second-hand dealers. What's the price?" "A thousand dollars to you, madam," said I. They were at once suspicious.

"We're not going to leave you," Merkle said, positively. "No!" echoed Bob. "I'll wake up Orson while John telephones the doctor." But Hammon forbade Bob's movement with a frown.
Quoth he: "Now, and there be any here among us so faint-hearted so unworthy as this Orson and Jenkyn, that do hold treasure and safety above flesh and blood if there be any here, who, regarding his own base body, will strike no blow for these distressed why, let him now go forth of this our company. O men!
It transpired that when Orson went home to get his rifle he told his wife of the projected adventure, and the boy, who was in an adjoining room, overheard. The spirit of adventure inherited from his father was immediately aroused, and he determined to seek a share in the enterprise.
No, no, Julia, when you look on the Carlo Dolce and the Guido, you will forget not only the toils of the husband, but that you have one at all. You will forget my harsh features in the contemplation of softer ones." "Your features are not harsh ones, Edward." "Nay, you shall not persuade me that I am not an Orson a very wild man of the woods. I know I am.
