Even the blonde was something of a scrapper and she mixed in with a miscellaneous assortment of stuffed animals and preserved specimens, to say nothing of some choice language which she hadn't learned in Circassia. The place was pretty well wrecked by the time the police arrived and separated the fighters. "'What's all this row about, anyway? asks the sergeant after they had quieted things down.
I suppose my renown as a scrapper survives yet in the old ward. As in the other case, the chain of circumstantial evidence was perfect. No link was missing. None could have been forged to make it stronger. I wouldn't hang a dog on such evidence. And I think I am justified in taking that stand. The summer and fall had worn away, and no word had come from home. Mother, who knew, gave no sign.
You are long on civilization, Howard." "Not on the kind which has to be inculcated by main strength and a cheerful disregard for consequences. I'm no scrapper." To the eye of appraisal, Lidgerwood's personal appearance bore out the peaceable assertion to the final well-groomed detail.
If he wasn't he wouldn't of tied into a game of buckin' you; he wouldn't of played seven-an'-a-half like he did in at the Ace of Diamonds; he wouldn't of took them long chances tacklin' Woodsy's timberjacks before breakfas'. Scrapper an' gambler. That's tally one an' two." The old man frowned heavily, his teeth remaining tight clamped on his pipestem as he cried sharply: "That's it!
He knew that he couldn't have seen it had it been only one fourth that distance away. But if he couldn't see the fly he could hear the sharp click of Scrapper's bill, and he knew by the way Scrapper kept opening and shutting his mouth after his return that he had caught that fly and it had tasted good. "Are you going to build in the Old Orchard this year?" asked Peter.
"You are more than a match for Harris at any time." "I did the best I could," said Jack, sheepishly. "Well, it was pretty good," said Captain Reynolds. With Captain Raleigh he moved away. Frank now approached and accompanied Jack back to their cabin, where Jack got info his uniform. "Some scrapper, you are," said Frank. "I thought you were done for once or twice, though."
"Say, Rover, look out, or Jerry Koswell will eat you up!" said one of the seniors. "Koswell is a good scrapper," came from another. "I gave him one lesson and I can give him another," answered Tom. "There, take that!" He turned swiftly and rushed at Koswell. One blow after another was delivered with telling accuracy, and Koswell went flat on his back on the ice.
"Why, you're a regular scrapper," he smiled. "Now, I'm sure you didn't cuff Bush that way." Hazel jerked loose from his grip in a perfect fury, using at the same time the weapons nature gave her according to her strength, whereby Mr. Perkins suffered sundry small bruises, which were as nothing to the bruises his conceit suffered.
Course, he'll be joshed a lot about it, but that'll mean he'll either have to be a good scrapper or develop an easy-grin disposition, so he wins both ways." The only really disappointed member of the fam'ly is Vee's Auntie. Last time she was out here she notices the change in 'Ikky-boy's curls and sighs over it.
But I jest want you to know that they's one man that appreciates you for a plain scrapper. And I'll tell you another thing; when the time comes you'll look jest as big over the top of a six-shooter as I do, and stand only half the chanst to git hit.
