You're a one-armed man from now on, and that one arm is the worst you got. "That was why he sent me home alive. To make me live and keep hating him, the same's he'd lived and hated me. But he made a mistake. Pete Reeve is a wise fox, but he made one mistake. He forgot that I might have somebody to send on his trail.
If she marries she'll hev to come down to scrubbin' and cookin', and tendin' baby, same's her ma; and if she's an old maid, why, there's the Works, or goin' out to housework, and either way I don't see just where an eddication comes in." "It might help her to some easier employment," suggested Joyce, but rather faintly, for the woman's airy loquacity disconcerted her.
No warrior was ever killed on the back of this famous steed, for she was as swift as the clear, cold wind of spring, travelling with equal ease and speed on land and sea, an' may the divil fly away wid me if that same's not true. We no longer find any difficulty in remembering all this nomenclature, for we are 'under gesa' to use no other.
I couldn't holler even, worth listenin'. An' who'd buy off a girl what can't holler?" "Hmm. I don' know. Hollerin's the life o' your trade, same's rub-a-dub-dubbin' 's the life o' mine, er puttin' the freshest flower to the front the bunch is o' Jane's. But, land, 'Queenie, you best not wait fer the cap'n. Best keep a doin', an' onct you're at it again, the holler'll come all right.
"And shall I have to take the toffee-pot and go to the spring, same's you did?" "No," said Charlie; "the Indians would see you and kill you if you did, and we have a well in the yard. But I'll tell you what I'll do.
"Who do you think they are?" asks Frank Hamersley, the proprietor of the assaulted caravan. "Are they Comanches, Walt?" "Yis, Kimanch," answers the individual thus addressed; "an' the wust kind o' Kimanch. They're a band o' the cowardly Tenawas. I kin tell by thar bows. Don't ye see that thar's two bends in 'em?" "I do." "Wal, that's the sort o' bow the Tenawas carry same's the Apash."
'They's sides to life makes me want to pinch that word right out o' the dictionary same as I would a bug, I says. "That was funny, too," Calliope added thoughtfully, "because I like that word, speakin' o' food an' ways to do things. But some folks get to livin' the word same's if it was the law. "I guess they thought I was crazy," she went on, "but I wasn't long makin' 'em understand.
"Salt water skims off Archie same's if he was a white bellied gull; can't drown him no more'n you kin a can buoy." The boy has never forgotten Scootsy's epithet, although he has never spoken of it to his mother no one knows her now by any other name. She thought the episode had passed out of his mind, but she did not know everything that lay in the boy's heart.
Grown trees act that way sometimes, same's folks; then they'll put right to it and strike their roots off into new ground and start all over again with real good courage. Ash-trees is very likely to have poor spells; they ain't got the resolution of other trees." I listened hopefully for more; it was this peculiar wisdom that made one value Mrs. Todd's pleasant company.
Suddenly, and at the sight of Pinckney, Prue's words of that morning entered her mind. "Miss Julie, Massa Pinckney told me tell yo' he be at de gate t'night same's las' night.
