"You see he used a 'sticker' rather freely," cried Steel Spring, in a careless way, as though stabbing was a meritorious act, which Jackson's modesty was too great for him to disclose. "I thought I asked you to say nothing of the matter!" exclaimed Jackson, with a pallid cheek, and a frightened expression. "Veil, so you did, but vat of it?
You had to drop the two men you dropped aroun' here, boy; but they ain't forgettin' it." "Bob Long was headin' that posse," said Rathburn thoughtfully. "An' Bob Long's a sticker when he hits out on a man's trail," said Price. "Still, I guess you'd be safe in here for a while. There ain't many knows this place." "I don't figure on stayin' here long, Joe," said Rathburn.

"Be a good boy, Zeke," coaxingly, "and don't forget now, because Mrs. Evringham is a great stickler and a great sticker, too," added Mrs. Forbes in a different tone. "Who is the old woman, if the governor isn't married?" asked Ezekiel with not very lively interest. "She don't seem popular with you."

Dick sat down and took up the morning "Tribune," but presently came to a word of four syllables, which he pronounced to himself a "sticker," and laid it down. But he had not long to wait, for five minutes later Mr. Greyson entered. "Did you wish to speak to me, my lad?" said he to Dick, whom in his new clothes he did not recognize.
He played a steady rather than a brilliant game, and was noted as a good sturdy sticker. Had he been there, Thompson would have put him in at first, in order to break the bowling of the House team. As it was, misfortunes had come rapidly. Ruthven and Handcock were bowling splendidly, and none of the Town boys were making any stand against them.

Swinburne has fine eyes and a still finer brow, but instead of idealizing the POET in him, the silly artist painted him as if he had no more intellectual distinction than a bill- sticker! ... English art! ... pooh! ... don't speak to me about it! Go to Spain, Italy, Bavaria see what THEY can do, and then say a Miserere for the sins of the R A's!"

His actions seem to stamp him a rogue if ever there was one; and yet, Thad, I seemed to see something different in the depths of his twinkling blue eyes." "Oh! thunder! however are we going to get rid of such a sticker?" groaned Thad, as though at a loss to know what next to do. "Listen," resumed Hugh.
