At the sight of that telltale feather all the birds knew that Weaver was right, and led by Scrapper the Kingbird they began a noisy search of the Old Orchard for the sly robber. But Sammy wasn't to be found, and they soon gave up the search, none daring to stay longer away from his own home lest something should happen there. Welcome and Mrs.
May 16, 1918 Going to have another operation tomorrow and then I think I'll be well. And, believe me, if I am I am going back and get somebody for this. We are now on the Somme, near Rouen. I suppose you know Baron von Richthofen has been brought down. I'm sorry, for he was a game, clean scrapper, and I know, for I've had several brushes with him.
"Why," he said, referring to a man with whom he had had a misunderstanding, "dat mug scrapped like a damn dago. Dat's right. He was dead easy. See? He tau't he was a scrapper. But he foun' out diff'ent! Hully gee." He walked to and fro in the small room, which seemed then to grow even smaller and unfit to hold his dignity, the attribute of a supreme warrior.
Somehow, all my life I've just longed to be a football player. There's something about the game that seems to just stir me up, as even baseball couldn't. And yet nobody would call me a scrapper either," remarked Ralph. "Oh, it isn't that always. Lots of good football players are quiet, modest fellows, ready to mind their own business, if let alone.
This angel who was begging him to come to her rescue was something too heavenly for chowder, and as for hats golden, jewelled crowns for her!

"You're a young cyclone, but you can't get a chance to muss Dud Hollister up to-night. You work too rapid. Doggone my hide, if I ever did see a faster or a better piece o' work. How about it, Tom?" Reeves, too, pounded Dillon in token of friendship. If Bob had not wiped the slate clean he had made a start in that direction. "You're some scrapper when you get started.
He was good enough to say he liked the look of Denton, thought he had stood up "amazing plucky. On'y pluck ain't no good ain't no brasted good if you don't 'old your 'ands. "Whad I was going to say was this," he said. "Lemme show you 'ow to scrap. Jest lemme. You're ig'nant, you ain't no class; but you might be a very decent scrapper very decent. Shown. That's what I meant to say."

Well, there is never a town or a village but has its particular bully; and for several years now Nick Lang had ably filled that role in Scranton. He was a born "scrapper," and never so happy as when annoying others.
But filled as much as you could fill me, bless your 'eart. I aren't never goin' to forget that, Gov'nor no fear. An eater and a scrapper I am, sir; and I'll scrap for you, sir, while there's a bloomin' breff left in my blessed body! Gimme the tip wot kind of work I can do for you, Gov'nor, will you?

Or maybe you don't?" "What was he?" The convict's ugly grin, going to the twisted side of his face, made it monstrous. "Mayhap you don't know what they call a scrapper?" said he. "I don't.
