Who she was and what she was he didn't know, and she didn't know, so there was a pair of them. She'd run away from an old woman down Limehouse way, who used to beat her. That was all she could tell him. He got her a lodging with an old woman, who had an attic in the same house where he slept when it would run to that taught her to yell "Speshul!" and found a corner for her.
But Hank, of course, had been the first to notice it, and the odd thing was that instead of becoming explosive or angry over the other's reluctance, he at once began to humor him a bit. "But there ain't no speshul reason why no one's been up there this year," he said with a perceptible hush in his tone; "not the reason you mean, anyway!
Still we ain't none of us makin' cigarettes of no sech roll as five thousand. The days ain't quite so halcyon as all that neither. "But what I likes speshul in Cherokee Hall is his jedgement. He's every time right. He ain't talkin' much, an' he ain't needin' advice neither, more'n a steer needs a saddle-blanket. But when he concloodes to do things, you can gamble he's got it plenty right.
It looks like this yere camp is speshul toomultuous to-night. "Boggs goes in with the infant, an' Jack proceeds to the baile house an' states the case. "'I don't want to onsettle the reg'lar programme, says Jack, 'but this yere young-one I'm responsible for, gets that engaged in the sounds of these yere revels, it don't look like he's goin' to sleep none.
"Everybody's pleased at this; an' the barkeep is delighted speshul, as one of them reeconciliations that a-way is mighty condoosive to the sale of nose-paint. I'm yere to remark, if thar ain't no more reeconciliations on earth, an' everybody stands pat on them hatreds an' enmities of his, whiskey-drinkin' falls off half.
"I wonder if they know all about it at home yet. Won't our people be bucked!" "And the papers," added the Captain of Marines. "Can't you hear the paper-boys yelling, 'Speshul Edition! Great Naval Victory! My word, I'd like to be in town when the news comes out." He considered the mental picture his imagination had conjured up. "I think I should get tight...!" he said.
"'An' I'm struck speshul, says Cherokee, 'about what Enright observes at the finish, that it's a instance where the more he wins, the more he loses; an' how this, his best season, is goin' to be his worst. I has experiences sim'lar myse'f onct. Which the cases is plumb parallel! "'This time when my own individooal game strikes somethin' an' glances off, is 'way back.
A newsboy thrust open the swing-door, yelling: "Bond Street murder! A fresh development. Late speshul!" "Oh!" cried Mollie Gretna to her companion, "get me a paper. Be quick! I am so excited!" Kerry took up a pen, and in large bold hand-writing inscribed the following across two pages of the visitors' book: "Chief Inspector Kerry. Criminal Investigation Department."

Of course we-alls never asks his name none, as askin' names an' lookin' at the brands on a pony is speshul roode in the West, an' shows your bringin' up; but he allows he's called 'Old Bill Gentry to the boys, an' he an' Faro Nell's partic'lar friendly. "'Talkin' to him, says Nell, is like layin' in the shade. He knows everythin', too; all about books an' things all over the world.
