"Look yer," he said, suddenly turning to them both. "I reckon as how you two wanter talk over old times, and I'll just meander over to the claim, and do a spell o' work. Don't mind ME. And if HE" indicating Madison with his finger "gets on ter religion, don't you mind him. It won't hurt you, Safie, no more nor my revolver, but it's pow'ful persuadin', and you understand me? You follow me?
She laid the hand face down again on the table, and slowly the lingering eyes withdrew from her, having learned nothing. MacDonald smiled benevolently. "I see you, Daylight, and I hump this time for two thousand. How's that hunch, Jack?" "Still a-crawling, Mac. You got me now, but that hunch is a rip-snorter persuadin' sort of a critter, and it's my plain duty to ride it.
I'll say good-by and walk off casual-like. If he wants to stay, he can stay. If he wants to come with me, let 'm come. I won't call 'm to come an' don't you call 'm to come back." He looked with sudden suspicion at Madge, and added, "Only you must play fair. No persuadin' after my back is turned." "We'll play fair," Madge began, but Skiff Miller broke in on her assurances.
And you are sacrificing human lives by persuadin' these folks to hold onto this land they just can't keep, nor make a livin' on, under five years and pay the interest till their mortgages expire. And I've just this to say:" Champers spoke persuasively. "I'm not a shark. I'm humane.
What! you ain't agoin', Mr. Ellery?" "I think I must, Mrs. Prince." "Oh, don't! Do stay a spell longer. Gracie might come and I'd like for you to meet her. She needs sympathy and comfort an awful lot, and there's no tellin', you might convert her to bein' a Reg'lar. Oh, yes, you might. You've got the most persuadin' way, everybody says so. And you don't know her very well, do you?
"Don't go," said John. "Come in. Of course you know Mr. Euston." "Glad to see ye," said David, advancing and shaking hands. "You folks talkin' bus'nis?" he asked before sitting down. "I am trying to persuade Mr. Lenox to do me a great favor," said Mr. Euston. "Well, I guess he won't want such an awful sight o' persuadin'," said David, taking a chair, "if he's able to do it.
Le Moyne will return your gun when we're across that broken bridge, if they have got it fixed for heavy trains yet."

"Maybe none of us are crossin' that Big Horn bridge now, except me. Funny if yu' should end by persuadin' me to quit and go to Rawhide myself!
"Lookit here, Bull, if you hadn't locked the door leading up the stairs to the Starlight's loft, I'd 'a' come after you there and done my persuadin' of you right in the loft. As it was when I heard what you were up to nemmine how I heard. I heard, that's enough I had to go out in the street and do what I could there. I don't believe the feller liked it much, neither." "But what's he to you?
"We don't know where he went," continued Gilroy grimly, "but I reckon you ain't over anxious to see him NOW. And I kin tell ye something to ease your mind, he didn't require much persuadin'.
