All, all was food for my 2 poetic sole. I went below to breakfast, but vittles had lost their charms. "Take sum of this," said the Capting, shovin a bottle tords my plate. "It's whisky. A few quarts allers sets me right when my stummick gits out of order. It's a excellent tonic!" I declined the seductive flooid. Thursdy.
"Now, then, where are you shovin' to, eh?" grumbled Tom; and there was a scuffle, and the muttering of a score of Spanish oaths, with, I must say, a couple of English ones, that sounded to be in Tom's voice, when Garcia shouted, in a voice that we could all hear: "Tell him there is another debt to pay yet, and it shall be paid in another coin!"
"Are ye wantin' me, sor?" came another shout as I rounded the squat building stuffed with boats literally so bottom, top, and sides. "Yes are you the boatman?" "I am, sor and bloody sick of me job. Do ye see that wherry shovin' off the one with the lady in a sweater? Yes that's right just slipped under the bridge. Well, sor, what d'ye think the bloke did for me? Look at it, sor!"
"Did he kill himself, Uncle Remus?" the little boy asked, with a curious air of concern. "Hol' on dar, honey!" the old man exclaimed, with a great affectation of alarm; "hol' on dar! Wait!

Night was come by the time we were lodged there, and, being in pretty good appetite, I struck the sheriff for some grub. "I'll git yer somethin'," he said, good-naturedly; "but next time yer shove people, Mr. Gordon, just quit shovin' yer friends. My shoulder feels like " perhaps it's just as well not to say what his shoulder felt like.
"I don't reckon we'll discuss that subject," said Clay blandly, but with a note of finality in his voice. "No offense, boss. It's an honor to have so distinguished a gent for a cell pal. For that matter I ain't no cheap rat myself. Dey pinched me for shovin' de queer. I'd ought to get fifteen years," he said proudly. This drew a grin from Lindsay, though not exactly a merry one.
I told her as I was a shovin' my coppers in there, and she says she'll shove you in, governor, she says. She did swear at you, governor! It's a game to hear her." "When you learn better, Billy," said Jack, quite sternly, "you won't talk like that of your mother." Billy's face overclouded suddenly.
"I know that," Willie replied with a pleasant smile. "'Tain't that that's frettin' me. It's just that I don't relish the notion of shovin' my job onto your shoulders.

It won't do to shove treason in the face of a mar-o'-wa-a-r. If I am a mutineer, w'at o' that? I'll let no other man haul down my colours. So don't go shovin' treason at me, Bill McCoy." "I'll shove treason w'erever I please," said McCoy, fiercely.
"It's the jumps, Bill," gasped the other, "the 'orrors they've got me and no mistake. As I'm a livin' man, as I was a shovin' of that there truck, I saw a imp a gashly imp, Bill, stick its hugly 'ed over the side and say, 'Tommy, it ses, jest like that it ses, 'Tommy, I wants you! I dursn't go near it, Bill. I'll get leave, and go 'ome and lay up it glared at me so 'orrid, Bill, and grinned ugh!
