"Git down, I tell yer," cried the guardian of the orchard. "Suppose 'tis, it's robbin' arter all. So now move on, and none of yer cussed impudence." "But you call them John Walton's apples," said Gregory, eating one with provoking coolness. "What have you got to do with them? and why should you care?" "Now look here, stranger, you're an infernal mean cuss to ask such questions.
Charbono found a bird dead lying near the fort this morning and brought it to me I immediately recognized it to be of the same kind of that which I had seen in the Rocky mountains on the morning of the 20th of September last. this bird is about the size as near as may be of the robbin. it's contour also is precisely the same with that bird. it measures one foot 31/4 Inches from tip to tip of the wings when extended. 91/4 inches from the extremity of the beak to that of the tail. the tail is 33/4 inches in length, and composed of eleven feathers of the same length.
"Thieves must have known cleverly kept watch on Bujannoff's actions must have learned his plan and trailed him to his house with the fruits of his robbery " "Clever " Matt broke out. "That's the way reputations is made ... in the noos-papers. How'd we know he was robbin' his pardner?" "Anyway, we've got the goods," Jim grinned. "Let's look at 'em again."
Steffens seems to think they're both about the same; but he's all wrong. The Philadelphia crowd runs up against the penal code. Tammany don't. The Philadelphians ain't satisfied with robbin' the bank of all its gold and paper money. They stay to pick up the nickels and pennies and the cop comes and nabs them. Tammany ain't no such fool.
"Vell, I did use to do the cookin' for 'em, vile they did the robbin'; but then you wouldn't blow on a fellow, would you?" "What did you make a target of my body for?" I inquired. "Vell, I vill be plain, and no mistake. I did think that if it killed von of ye, vy the rest vould run, and then I should be left alone to ring the blunt." "And why did you not continue to fire at us?"
"But," urged Swankie, "he's a smuggler, and a cross-grained hound besides. It's no' like robbin' an honest man." "An' what are we but smugglers?" retorted Spink; "an' as to bein' cross-grained, you've naethin' to boast o' in that way. Na, na, Swankie, ye may do't yersel, I'll hae nae hand in't. "Ay, man, but ye've turned awfu' honest all of a suddent," said the other with a sneer.
Edwin jumped in, banged the door to, an' locked it. "`You've no occasion to do that' says I, `for I don't expect no friends not even bobbies. "`You double-faced villain! says he; `you've bin robbin' my mother! "`Come, come, says I, `civility, you know, between pals. What have I done to your mother?
"Don't be blasphamin', honest man," said a bystander; "if you've lost money, that's no rason why you should fly in the face o' God for P 's roguery. Devil a one o' myself cares if I join you in a volley against the robbin' scoundril, but I'd not take all the money the rip of hell ran away wid, an' spake of God as you do."
Ay, bedad, we settled it up civil enough. And afore I went Martha handed me out th' ould thimble, and bid me bring it to Katty. ''Twas her mother's, sez she, 'I was keepin' for her; and thick it is wid houles be the same token; but don't say I'd be robbin' it off her. And they tould me to take Tib along, or else they'd be lavin' her to run wild; so I put her in the basket.
"Robbin' graves," answered Jimmy promptly. "I needed a few stiffs in me business so I just went out to Five Mile and got them." "What are ye going to do with them, Jimmy?" chuckled Dannie. "Use thim for Bass bait! Now rattle, old snake!" replied Jimmy.
