"No, sir: nothing, absolutely nothing." "Well, Mike Shay tipped me off that it was to be 'wet' on the quiet." "He made a mistake; this is to be a strictly teetotal club." "That settles it. What's the good of a club where you can't have no fun? Good night!" and out he went.
I was crying when I got into the 'shay' that's what we used to call it and old John Mulbery that drove it, and was a good-natured fellow, bought me a handful of apples at the Golden Lion to cheer me up a bit; and he told me that there was a currant-cake, and tea, and pork-chops, waiting for me, all hot, in my aunt's room at the great house.
He once worked on the newspapers too. God knows how he is making his money, but I know how he is spending it. He's decided to live, and he's doing it splendidly. It's wonderful." I took notice, although I had never even heard of the man. There were so very, very many rich men in America. Later I heard much more concerning him from this same de Shay.
But all at once it occurred to him that he had left the babu's loin-cloth on the inside front seat of the shay; and, because if that were seen it would have given excuse for a thousand tales too many and too imaginative, he hurried in search of it, taking a short cut to where by that time the shay should be. On his way, close to his destination, he stumbled over something soft that tripped him.
And he rolled up the aisle to deposit his five dollars, giving his name as Bud Towler. Jim remembered him as the third person in the back room the day he met Michael Shay. He had not seen him since. So many more came up now, mostly to pay a month's dues, which was the minimum, that Belle was worked hard and other business was stopped.
Since all Sikhs are supposed to be abstainers from strong drink, that was accepted as a favorable omen. The shay arrived on time to the second. It was the only closed carriage the regiment owned a heavy C-springed landau thing, taken over from the previous mess.

Now, wouldn't you? I'd ask Funnybone, but he's no shafer 'n I am. No shafer! You'll be good to Dennie, you said so. Shay it again!" Bond was standing now bending threateningly toward Burgess, who had also risen. "I'll do all that a gentleman ought to do." He had only one thought to pacify the drunken man and get away. And the old man understood. "Shwear it, I tell you!
"Shay, Rayder, you come and go home with me and hang around a day or two until you buy the mine and play sweet with Annie, an' the night of the weddin' we'll hev a dance and send you away on your bridal tour in a blaze of glory." "I'll do it, I'll do it, Amos, an' then we'll be almost brothers 'cordin' ter law, anyway."
"It's a leetle out of my way," suggested Constable Stokes. The constable pocketed with alacrity the half-dollar our hero tendered him, and said briskly. "I'll send him right off." "I shay," interjected the tramp, "send me a lawyer, too." "The same man will do for you," replied the constable. "A lawyer won't do you no good, though." "We're victims of tyrannical 'pression!" said the tramp gloomily.
