Willie Waxter youngest scion, scalawag, and scorcher of one of the oldest families jammed down his motorgoggles from the visor of his cap, making the feint of pursuing. Mr. Charley Cox, of half a hundred first-page exploits, did pursue, catching up slightly breathless. "What's your hurry, honey?" She spun about, too startled. "Charley Cox! Well, of all the nerve!
Without another word, he strode up the steps, across the porch and into the tavern, his head high, his gait noticeably unsteady. "Martin Hawk!" growled the landlord. "The orneriest cuss this side of hell. Plain no-good scalawag. Barry'll find it out some day, and then maybe he'll wish he had paid some attention to what I've been tellin' him."
"Hiram, dear," pleaded his wife, "please let the man go. Louada Murilla and I know now what a scalawag he is, and we know how we've misjudged both you and Cap'n Sproul, and we'll spend the rest of our lives showin' you that we're sorry. But let him go! If you make any such uproar as you're talkin' of it will all come out that he made your wives believe that you were bad men.
"The above cut represents the fate in store for those great pests of Southern society the carpet-bagger and scalawag if found in Dixie's land after the break of day on the 4th of March next." Nor could any except doctrinaires or the stupid have expected that the whites would long submit to such a regime.
"I offer no comments," said Walker Farr with a frank smile which won an answering flicker from the face under the vizor. "I do not understand." "I would not expect a vagabond to understand anything or to be brave enough to say what he thinks," piped the father. He turned on his son. "Here's a scalawag of a tramp. Go along with him and be another such."
I'm sure none of these ladies or gentlemen will let it go beyond this room?" The company murmured virtuous acquiescence. "He says to Freddie: 'You young scalawag, if ever anything of this sort happens to you, you can pack up and go off to Canada, for I'll have nothing more to do with you! or words to that effect. And Freddie says: 'Oh, dash it all, gov'nor, you know what?" However short Mr.
His study-cap would upset a judge's risibilities. Scrap books with droll caricatures and facetiæ. An odd stove, exciting your wonder as to where the coal is put in or the poker thrust for a shaking. All the works of Douglass Jerrold, and Sydney Smith, and Sterne, the scalawag ecclesiastic. India-rubber faces capable of being squashed into anything. Puzzles that you cannot untangle.
Any who showed fight were whipped, maimed, or killed, treatment which extended on occasion to their "carpet-bag" and "scalawag" friends these titles denoting respectively northern and southern men bold enough to take the negroes' side.
"Jane, what is all this Why, Bob, you scalawag!" and in a moment they were pumping hands at a great rate. The little maid leaned weakly against the balustrade. "Kit, Kit! I say, Kit, come and see who's here!" cried John.
I didn't rescue that scalawag because I had any Christian sentiments, nary bit. I was just naturally savin' him for the birling match next Fourther July." A man is one thing: a man plus his work is another, entirely different. You can learn this anywhere, but in the lumber woods best of all. Especially is it true of the camp boss, the foreman.
