When Sile Hawkins come a browsing around her, she let him know that for all his tin he couldn't trot in harness alongside of her.
Get there before Apache. All scalp gone if 'Pache come first." He suppressed a whoop, but the next bound of his pony explained his meaning, and Sile galloped, stride by stride, with him. It was a race for life and for the lives of many others; for Two Arrows had briefly read that problem when he said to Sile, as he handed him back his glass, "No squaw. Braves on war-path. No hunt. Kill.
It's jest on a line to where it would ha' knocked yer arm off, if it had struck onto the bone. It's the narrerest kind of an escape." Judge Parks had nothing more to say, for some reason, and seemed willing that Sile should go right on with further particulars of the day. "Two Arrows is right," said Pine. "He'd know a war-party, sure.
Q walking deliberately back, holding the wrist of his shattered left hand in his right, with his fingers compressing the artery to restrain the flow of blood. "There's Silas Peckham," exclaimed Si, running up to him. "Badly hurt, Sile?" "No," answered Silas, more coolly than if he had stubbed his toe. "Left hand's gone on a strike. That's all.
Rifles, pistols, and all that sort of thing were familiar enough to the young Nez Percé, but he saw new patterns of them and gained tremendous notions of the wealth and skill of the pale-faces who could make such weapons. "Father," said Sile, "I wish he could read. He's a bright fellow." "Show him everything you have with a picture in it."
The range was very short, the rest was a good one, the sight was quick but careful, and the bit of lead went straight to its intended place under the ear of that black bear. He would need no more fish from that time forth, and he pitched heavily forward upon the ground. "Wait a moment, Sile! Never run in on a b'ar till yer sure of him. Reckon he's dead, though. Stand where you are, my boy!"
I've already bought one this morning, a devilish pretty little mare, on Sile Pine's say-so that she was gentle, but after a slight though very trying experience, I'm afraid a bronco-buster's ideas of gentleness and mine don't exactly agree." "Why? Did she throw you?" asked Ridge. "Well, she didn't exactly throw me.
There's work enough before him. Save him up." "All right, father. But isn't this the camp? He can rest now." "No he can't, nor you either. It's an all-night job." Sile was not gray-headed. He was very nearly red-headed. Still, he looked enough like his father in several ways.
Almost everybody else was already astir, and breakfast was soon ready for him. Yellow Pine did a deal of exploring, before and after he breakfasted, and Sile at once set out to imitate him. He asked some question or other of every one he saw, and believed that he had learned a great deal. At last he came to a heap of stones and bushes that seemed to him to have been piled up remarkably.
What for?" "Wait. Show him by-and-by," said Sile. "Make shingles to cover house." "Ugh! Big lodge. Heap hard. No fall down. Top?" "Yes. Make cover. Keep out rain." "Ugh! Pale-face do a heap. Go away and leave him all," said Two Arrows.
