"When my eye ain't on him, he scoots off. His pa was the same way. He was forever chasin' over there and Roger's inherited it from him. Whenever I've wanted either of 'em, they've always been took with wanderin' fits." "You sent him out before," Allan reminded her. "So I did, but I ain't sent him out now and he's gone just the same. That's the trouble.
I'm so happy I could smash everything in the place. So your boss says, 'Wait till your wife begins to try her cookin' on you. Then Tommy gets after him, and Simmons scoots, and Tommy begins again on Scotch songs; all the slow, sad ones, and, honest, I had to go out too." "You spend a lot of time there, don't you, William?"
Look out, Quinny, here's a motor, and that's Holy Mountain on the right. We'll go up it to-morrow, if you like. It's not much of a climb. Just enough to jig you up a bit. There's a chap in the hotel who scoots up mountains like a young goat. He asked me to go up Snowdon with him, but when I asked him what the tramfare was, he was slightly snorty in his manner. How's the novel getting on?"
Have run down in my country haunt for a couple of days, and am spending them by the pond. While I am writing these lines he is disporting himself in scoots and rings over the wider parts of the pond, into whose surface he dashes, once or twice making a loud souse the spray flying in the sun beautiful!
His words were low, and he raised his forefinger to his head significantly. "She ain't allers a stayin' in the squatter country nuther," he pursued. "She takes that damn ugly cat of her'n and scoots away for a time. And none of 'em up there don't know where she goes. Hones' Injun, don't she never come about this here scow, Lem?"
Then I hear all o' suddent voice o' Mary Ellen talkin' in kitchen; then I come round softly and see Mary Ellen my wife as useter be standin' at fr'en's kitchen winder. Then I lights out quicker 'n lightnin' and scoots! And when I gets back home, I ups and tells my wife. And whosh fault ish't! Who shaid a man oughter tell hish wife? You!
"That's ma last!" he said, and picking up an aerial torpedo from between his feet, he dropped it over the side. It struck the last car, which dissolved noisily into dust and splinters, while the force of the explosion overturned the car ahead. "A bonnie shot," said Tam o' the Scoots complacently, and banked over as he turned for home.
I thought it very idle and indeed wanton in the girl to be so literal and stand opposite to so much kind advice; but the fact is she had a very good reason, if she would have told us. Sailing scoots and rattel-waggons are excellent things; only the use of them must first be paid for, and all she was possessed of in the world was just two shillings and a penny halfpenny sterling.
Stone, he simpully makes me foller him till I'm that dog-tired, I near drops in my tracks. And, to top the heap, he leads me straight to this hotel, where we're stayin' yes, sir! right here and makin' a sharp turn, he says, 'Good-night! pleasant like, and scoots off. Can you beat it?" "Poor old Fibs, that was an experience! Looks like the Hanlon person is one to be reckoned with.
