I'd have had my old 'ead scat abroad every day of my life and never have told rather than I'd have helped to do this. Was it really me telling on 'ee, sur, that made the master settle it so?" "Yes," nodded Dan, "that finished it." Jabez groaned again in sheer misery. "I dunno, I'm sure, whatever made me take and do it. I've stood so much more from all of 'ee and never so much as opened my lips.
"If I saw an angel here in the garden, señorita," he exclaimed, "would I say zape to it? No, no, señorita; here you shall stay a thousand years if you wish. I swear it." He was all sincerity; Ignacio Chavez would no sooner think of being rude to a beautiful young woman than of crying "Scat!" to an angel.
"Well, if you're sure you want me," Lucy laughed and dimpled. "If I hadn't wanted you, you may be pretty sure I shouldn't have asked you," retorted Jane bluntly. "Mary an' 'Liza will likely be scat to death at first, but they'll get over it an' thaw out. Don't pay no attention to 'em." Jane had ascended the steps and her hand was on the latch.
"You did not care whether I got into trouble or not, so you saved a little by swindling the city. That's about what it amounts to, as far as I can make out." "Get out, I say. Tramp! Scat with you!" Mr. Quigg fairly danced with futile anger, while Ralph, seeing the uselessness of further words, walked rapidly off. The small crowd disappointed in beholding a fight, slowly dispersed.
"Wa'al," said David, "all on 'em laughed some, but Price he jest lay back an' roared, and I found out afterwuds," added David, "that ev'ry man at the table, except the Englis'man, know'd what 'low bridge' meant from actial experience. Wa'al, scat my !" he exclaimed, as he looked at his watch, "it ain't hardly wuth while undressin'," and started for the door.
"I do not know," was the reply. "Some one left it here this morning." Then Rod remembered that he had heard a knock, and the teacher had gone to the door, returning shortly with something in her hand. He had not seen the visitor, and so had soon forgotten all about the incident. Going back to his scat, he untied the string, and unwrapped the brown paper.
She made a desperate dash from her pine across the open space, and in another moment was safe inside the cemetery fence. "Scat! Go home!" ordered the lady, advancing toward the cow and shaking the book at her, as if the volume was some sort of deadly weapon. "Aren't you ashamed of yourself! Go away! You needn't growl at me! I'm not a bit afraid of you."
Early and hurried breakfasts were in order in a number of homes. Dorothy viewing her oatmeal with an air of disfavor, launched into the discussion of a subject which had occupied her thoughts for some time. "Aunt Peggy, if I should see a bear up in the country, do you s'pose I'd be 'fraid? I'd jus' say to him, 'Scat, you old bear!" "Eat your oatmeal, Dorothy."
"Whish, go away!" commanded Bab. "Scat!" meekly quavered Betty. To their great relief, the poodle gave several more inquiring barks, and then vanished as suddenly as he appeared. With one impulse, the children ran to see what became of him, and, after a brisk scamper through the orchard, saw the tasselled tail disappear under the fence at the far end.
The sailor's upturned face was of a sickly yellow, smeared with blood and crusted with salt. The same white crust filled the hollows of his closed eyes, and streaked his beard and hair. It turned her faint for the moment. "An the wreck's scat abroad," continued Old Zeb; an' the interpretation thereof is barrels an' nuts.
