"Well, well," broke in M. Paul, "what did you discover?" Gibelin lifted his pudgy hands deprecatingly. "For one thing I discovered a photograph of the woman who was in Number Six with Martinez." "The devil!" cried Coquenil. "It is not of much importance, since already you have the woman's name and address." He shot a keen glance at his rival. M. Paul was silent. What humiliation was this!
Men could be heard running hither and thither, and above all sounded the heavy trample of the new arrivals' horses. In less than two minutes the last of the wounded Mexicans had picked himself up from the ground, and, clapping a hand over a rapidly swelling "goose egg," was hurrying from the scene of the sudden battle. The last to get up was the pudgy little officer whom Jack had overthrown.
The horse was a pudgy bay that set his feet stolidly down in the trail, and dragged his toes through it as though he delighted in kicking up all the dust he could. By that trick he had puzzled Helen May a little, just at first, though he had not been able to simulate the passing of four horses. The man held the lines so loosely that they sagged under the wire-mended traces of sunburned leather.
Not more than five or ten minutes after parting from Frank and Barney, Gallup came face to face with a man who stepped squarely in front of him and held out a pudgy hand.

"I think, perhaps," amiably remarked the duke, sipping his beef tea, "that you had better not call him a `chap, Braddle. The late Mr.
Burgoyne had bought the Hall, and just asked him what he knew about her and her people. Here " marking a certain line with a pudgy, imperative finger, she handed a page of the letter to Barry, "read from there on," she commanded, "this is what he says." Barry took the paper, but hesitated.

If I do not see you again, sir, permit me to wish you good evening." He disappeared with several bows of his pudgy little person, and Laverick was left with another puzzle to solve.
Evans, short and pudgy, but with a kindly face, and not too many diamonds; and the Misses Evans, stately and slender and perfectly arrayed. "Why, they're all right!" was the thought that came to Montague. They were all right until they opened their mouths.
