"Well," replied Ozias Lamb, slowly, "I should say, takin' all things into consideration the graspin' qualities of them that had been rich, and the spillin' qualities of them that had been poor, about fourteen hours an' three-quarters. I might make it twenty-four I s'pose some might hang on to it overnight but I guess on the whole it's safer to call it fourteen an' three-quarters."
He could not deny his sympathy to a youngster in trouble. Again he touched gently the lad's crisp curls of burnished gold. "Brace up, bub. The worst is yet to come," he laughed awkwardly. "I reckon there's no use spillin' any more emotion over it. He ain't your dad, is he?" The lad's big brown eyes looked up into the serene blue ones and found comfort in their strength.
He faced Bridger without a tremor, his head bare, and cursed Chardon for a coward when his hand trembled as he balanced the cup on Jackson's head. "Damn ye," he exclaimed, "there'll be plenty lost without any o' your spillin'!"
"It's next door to a lot of other things, seems like, too. I shouldn't say that Bet Gallup was spillin' over with piety." Louise, laughing softly, went to the door. There was a cloud of dust up the road and ahead of it came a small automobile. Cap'n Amazon was singing, in a rather cracked voice: "'The Boundin' Biller, Captain Hanks, She was hove flat down on the Western Banks; "
Well" Paloma tossed her head "I'm going to have some nice clothes, too. You wait!" "Now don't you start riggin' yourself up for meals," Blaze said, warningly. "First thing I know you'll have me in a full-dress suit, spillin' soup on my shirt." Then to his guest he complained, feelingly: "I don't know what's come over Paloma lately; this new dressmaker has plumb stampeded her.
"Who was with you the out-trip, along with Miss Donovan?" "Joe Sikes." "And yer left him back there, guarding the girl?" "He stayed; them was the orders, while I was to bring back the team; but I reckon he won't need to do no guardin' to speak of, fer we run inter a bunch o' fellows." "Mendez's outfit?" "You got the right dope, marshal, so I reckon I ain't spillin' no beans.
Our line is injured innocence, of course same as when the Sergeant reported us on suspicion of smoking in the bunkers. If I hadn't thought of buyin' the pepper and spillin' it all over our clothes, he'd have smelt us. King was gha-astly facetious about that. 'Called us bird-stuffers in form for a week." "Ah, King hates the Natural History Society because little Hartopp is president.
"I had no call spillin' the weeps durin' business hours. I wouldn't of either, only I had another session with his old lady this mornin' and she sort of got me stirred up." "Mother taking it hard, is she?" I asks. "You've said sumpin," admits Miss Casey, unbuttonin' a locket vanity case and repairin' the damage done to her facial frescoin' with a few graceful jabs.
I was high up an' could see how the steers kept spillin' by twos an' threes over into the wash. Cairns put his hoss to a place thet was too wide fer any hoss, an' broke his neck an' the hoss's too. We found that out after, an' as fer Vail an' Willis two thousand steers ran over the poor boys.
She was very sorry for Madam, who would try to eat it, and always bore more patiently with her young handmaid than that person wholly deserved, but there was a silver lining to that cloud! Montgomery would never touch suppawn if it were scorched: therefore, she need carry him none of it. "Couldn't have got any milk up there, anyway, without spillin' it, Ma'am Puss, an' you know it. Goody!
