Here Snap leaped up, shotgun in hand. "Here's our chance, fellows!" he whispered. "All together." He pointed to some low trees beyond the clearing. The branches were thick with quail. All understood and took up their firearms. "I'll shoot high, Shep can shoot low, Giant to the left and Whopper to the right," commanded the leader of the club. "All ready?"
"If I do not see you again, Martha," said Arthur as he kissed the dear old mother farewell, "remember that I am happy, and that you made me so." Owen Ledwith had a theory concerning the invasion of Ireland, which he began to expound that winter. Since few know much more about the military art than the firing of a shotgun, he won the scorn of all except his daughter and Arthur Dillon.
He looked sharply for a moment and then discovered that it was a large black bear. "Shep! Giant! Quick!" "What's the matter, Snap?" "A bear! Down the stream! Come on with the guns!" went on Snap excitedly. He had returned hot-footed to where he had left his chums and the firearms. "Are you sure?" queried the doctor's son as he dropped his camera and grabbed up his shotgun.
Regretfully he threw the shotgun away, as it would not appear natural for a messenger to carry it and a rifle too. He went forward boldly now, and, when an hour later he saw a detachment of Union cavalry in a road, he took no measures to avoid them. Instead he went directly toward the horsemen and hailed them in a loud voice.
"I always had a feeling," admitted Brian, "that if I didn't stick around and keep an eye on you, a lot of things would happen." "They did. They've been happenin' ever since." Brian flushed and put out his hand. "Kenny, surely you guessed. I was sorry " "Jewel machree, I was fair sick about the shotgun. And after you went I was willing to be sorry about anything to get you back."
Dink seized the shotgun and turned it upon the intruder; but he was too close. Billy grasped the barrel of the weapon and threw the muzzle up toward the ceiling as the tramp pulled the trigger. Then he wrenched it from the man's hands, swung it once above his head and crashed the stock down upon Dink's skull. Dink went down and out for the count for several counts, in fact.
For camping use there was a cotton wedge tent, a small sheet-iron tent stove, three camp axes, some candles and matches, a file for sharpening the axes and a sleeping-bag for each. Men in that land do not travel without arms, and it was decided that David should take a carbine and Andy and Doctor Joe each a double-barrel shotgun, for there might be an opportunity to shoot a fat goose or duck.
"Pete!" exclaimed the farmer, harshly, still eyeing Hiram. "Run up to the house and bring my shotgun. Be quick about it." Hiram said never a word, and the horses, yoked together, began to crop the short grass springing upon the bank of the water-hole. "You'll find out you're fooling with the wrong man, you whippersnapper!" promised Dickerson.
Because, when Newman neared the forward end of the poop, the two tradesmen of the port watch suddenly popped up from the ladder and confronted him. Sails carried a sawed-off shotgun in the crook of his arm, and Chips had a pair of handcuffs dangling in his grasp. Newman stopped short. Who would not, with the muzzle of a shotgun carelessly pointed at his breast? No order to halt was needed.
"I'll go," Roy declared; "I'll take that twenty two rifle and Peggy can carry that light twenty-gauge shotgun. It's just the thing for girls and children." "Oh, indeed," sniffed the embattled Peggy scornfully; "I suppose you think I can't handle a man's size gun?"
