The big boys had settled themselves in a back corner side by side a situation too favourable for mischief. He asked them to take other seats. They complied sullenly and with hesitation.

I know he has that, and maybe I can help you make it up." "Thank-ee," she turned to go back, "but I reckon Mother Owsley's Cyantha kin help some." She stood a moment, hesitating, then faced around, asking: "Ye hain't got a primer, or sumthin', I kin take ter Mother Owsley, hev ye?
From the thirteen- inch down to the four-inch, the guns are designated by their caliber, the diameter of their bore, and the shot they throw, while from that to the one-pounder they take their name from the weight of the shot.
