He's sent back to Missouri for a niece a young girl an' he means to leave his ranches an' sheep all his stock to her. Seems he has no one else.... Them ranches an' all them sheep an' hosses! You know me an' Al were pardners in sheep-raisin' for years. He swore I cheated him an' he threw me out. An' all these years I've been swearin' he did me dirt owed me sheep an' money.
"I'll show you, you danged dog!" he cursed exultantly as the Ground Hog went down before him, "I'll show you how to run out on me! Come on, you big stiff, and if I don't make you holler quit you can have every dollar you stole!" "Hey, what's the matter, Big Boy? What's going on here?" demanded Bunker of the blond young giant. "I thought you fellers were pardners."
The chivalry within him, so great and essential a part of the man's nature, was a wounded thing, hurt by his own act. The old feeling of camaraderie which had sprung up between them at times was gone now; they could no longer be "pardners" as they had been that night in the old cabin.
It's the way with most o' the pardners, unless it's the green hands. That so, pards?" Some of them had already gone in to breakfast; the smell of the stew came out to the wood-yard through the open door. Lemuel and his friend finished their last stick at the same time, and went in together, and found places side by side at the table in the waiting- room.
Unmindful of the sullen apathy of men and women, the wailing of children stifling under the wagon tops, the moans of the sick and wounded in their ghastly discomfort, Jed sang with his cracked lips as he swung from one jig to the next, the voice of the violin reaching all the wagons of the shortened train. "Choose yore pardners!" rang his voice in the joyous jesting of youth.
And there wuz some British wimmen a follerin' their husbands through the perils of danger and death, likely old 4 mothers they wuz, and thought jest as much of their pardners as I do of my Josiah. I could see that plain.
"Run down where?" asked McEwen sharply. "To the mine, of course. I might spare the time next week." "No need to trouble yourself. My pardners wouldn't thank me for betraying their secrets." "Well, you couldn't expect me to provide the money without knowing a bit more about the property, could you? without a regular survey?" said Anderson, with a laugh.
He groped his way to Jan's side, and their hands met in a clasp that told more than either could have expressed of the brotherhood and strength of men. "You can't throw me off like that, Jan Larose," he said. "We're pardners!" Sergeant Brokaw was hatchet-faced, with shifting pale blue eyes that had a glint of cruelty in them. He was tall, and thin, and lithe as a cat.
Says I, "Josiah Allen, you wouldn't never carry it through successful if you should undertake it and then think of the wickedness on't." But he seemed sot. He said "it wuz more fashionable amongst married men and wimmen, than the more single ones," he said "it wuz dretful fashionable amongst pardners."`
Ef I war ter leave an' go a-gold huntin', the men on the mounting would find out what I war arter, an' they'd come a-grabblin' thar too, an' mebbe git it all, 'kase I dunno how much or how leetle thar be. I wants ter make sure of enough ter buy a horse, or a mule, or su'thin', ef I kin, 'fore I tells ennybody else. An' I 'lowed ez ye an' me would go pardners.
