Takin' a turn o' the line round the horn of his saddle, he reined in a bit, and then gave the spurs for another spurt, and soon after reined in again in fact, he jist played the wild horse like a trout, until he well-nigh choked him; an', in an hour, or less, he was led steamin', and startin', and jumpin', into the corral, where the man kept his other horses."
"Any man," said he to himself, "who can string things together in the way Benedict did this mornin' can be cured. Startin' in hell, he was all right, an' everything reasomble. The startin' is the principal p'int, an' if I can git 'im to start from Number Nine, I'll fetch 'im round.
It was putty well out when Billy P. died, but the village has growed up to it. The's some good lots could be cut out on't, an' it backs up to the river where the current's enough to make a mighty good power fer a 'lectric light. I know some fellers that are talkin' of startin' a plant here, an' it ain't out o' sight that they'd pay a good price fer the river front, an' enough land to build on.
Unless you or some of your friends here feel like startin' something there'll be no rough stuff that's orders. We're askin' you to go along first. How about it?" "Oh, I'll go I'll go! There's nobody got anything on me. And nobody's goin' to get anything on me neither."
"I'm sort o' allowin' this hamlet's too feeble yet for a paper. Startin' a paper in a small camp this a-way is like givin' a six-shooter to a boy; most likely he shoots himse'f, or mebby busts the neighbor, tharwith." "Oh, I don't know, says Doc Peets, who, I wants to say, is as sudden a white man, mental, as I ever sees; "my notion is to bring him along.
"Howdy, Dorothy," he called, then recognizing that this was a leave-taking he added, "Cal, ef ye're startin' home, I'll go long with ye, fer comp'ny." The moon was westering when the two men reached the turn of the road and there Rowlett paused and began speaking in a cautious undertone. "I didn't come along accidental, Cal. I done hit a-purpose.
It would be difficult to state which face expressed the most of embarrassed concern as they stood silently gazing at each other. "I was comin' over to your house," said Hiram. "I was startin' for yourn," said the Cap'n. Then both, like automatons pulled by the same string, dove hand into breast-pocket and pulled out a crumpled letter. "Well, I'll be dummed!" quoth the two in one voice.
Farnshaw said, rubbing her hand over the girl's glossy braids as Elizabeth turned away to begin the work she had suggested. "My! it don't seem like six weeks since I was your age young an' startin' out an' life looked good t' me, I kin tell you. Now I ain't got nothin' t' be good t' me but you." "I think I'll wash my hair before the sun gets low," Elizabeth said. "Then I'll help you in here."
I don't know how many others noticed it, but it was as plain as day to me that Dudley Byron is on the point of makin' a chump of himself. I begun to feel kind of sorry for him too; for he's a decent, well meanin' young chap. So I edges around where I can get a word with him on the side. "Come out of the trance, Dudley," says I. "I I beg pardon?" says he, startin' guilty.
Anyhow I was locked up, an' so were a lot of th' others. We were tried, an' I was accused of startin' th' mutiny. Some of th' worst men on th' ship put th' blame on me, an' I wasn't a bit guilty. But it was no use in denyin' it. They was all banded together t' accuse me t' save themselves. I was found guilty, though I wasn't at all, an' I was sentenced to a long imprisonment.
