An' they beant seamen eno' to keep a full an' by with all their 'takteek'. Ez fer that Landais, I hearn him whinin' at the commodore in the round house when we was off Clear, an' sayin' as how he would tell Sartin on us when he gets back to Paree. An' jabberin to th'other Frenchmen as was there that this here butter-cask was er King's ship, an' that the commodore weren't no commodore nohow.
The town was fairly overrun with them. Made you think there was nothing in all this talk about gay Paree. All the ladybirds seemed to have taken refuge here. You have no idea of her last name!" "It might have been Perrin." "Never. Not after she got here and set up in business. More likely Lestrange or Delacourt " "Was there a Delacourt?" "Not that I remember. I don't see light anywhere.
Shortly after the engagement at Hararparpi, three Frenchmen were waylaid in a pass of the valleys, and murdered by the incensed natives. This circumstance violently inflamed the hostility of both parties. About this time, Kitoti, a depraved chief, and the pliant tool of Bruat, was induced by him to give a great feast in the Vale of Paree, to which all his countrymen were invited.
"Boca del Dragon!" grumbled one of the fellows hoarsely, seemingly in our very ears. "The Captain is as nervous over those cursed frog-eaters down between decks as if we were anchored off Paree." "Think you that is the trouble, José?" returned the other in the sprightly voice of a younger man. "I tell thee, comrade, 'tis only that bloody demon of an O'Reilly he is fearful of.
'Ah! said he, after a few pointless remarks, 'your friend is over here on business, eh? Right thing, splendid thing. It's only by looking round that one can get real tip-top novelties. Oh! I know Paree and the bouleywards well enough. I was on at the Follee Bergey only a few years ago myself. A good place that pays well, eh? I shouldn't at all mind taking a trip across the water again.
Tim's voice remained a growl, but his face did not look so doleful as before. "Grrrumph! I always seem to draw big females, and I don't like 'em. Gimme somethin' cute like them li'l' frog dolls in Paree sort o' pee-teet and chick. Still, a feller's got to do the best he can. Mebbe I'll live till you guys git back."
Look!" he pointed to the flying field as the car turned from the highway. "There are the Camels, warming up, and filling this good, clean air with their sickening fumes. Bah! I hate it!" "Say, have you got the pip? You talk like a farmer. Snap out of it! We're headed for Gay Paree!" The car had rolled to a stop at the edge of the field. McGee climbed out slowly. "All right, big boy.
Riding home in the Livery Hacks about 4 A. M., the Merry-Makers would be all in, but much gratified to know that Vienna and Paree had nothing on them as regards Rough House. All the Elite would get together and open a Keg of Spikes at the slightest Provocation. It was remarkable how much Dull Care they could banish in one Evening, especially if they got an Early Start.
I will feel better tomorrow. Anyway, it is done and I am glad, as it was the sight of the century, and I was in it, and now I can spend my good time and money in gay Paree. Love to all. From Moscow Richard went direct to Buda Pest, where he wrote an article on the Hungarian Millennial. May 8th, 1896. CHAS: I have just returned from the procession of the Hungarian Nobles.
I thought of you a lot of times. Wished we could go out and get an ale together. Maybe pick up a couple of pretty girls." "Oh, you sport!... Say, didn't get over to gay Paree, did you?" "Nope.... Well, I guess I'd better beat it now. Got to move in I'm at a hotel. You will come down and see me to-night, won't you?" "So you thought of me, eh?... Yuh sure, old socks. I'll be down to-night.
