"Well," said Charleton, "I don't know any reason why I should keep quiet after the pretty names Jude has called me. It was Judith that helped Scott double-cross us up on Lost Chief Peak. She claims she didn't know it was our deal." "She didn't, either!" cried Douglas stoutly. John gasped, "Jude! She got away with your cattle, Charleton? That sure-gawd is funny! Jude! O Lord!"
You'll never get anywhere in this valley, if you show yourself shocked by anything anybody says." "I don't want to shock the preacher, Peter," Mrs. Falkner's beautiful face was wistful "I'd like to have his faith. I sure-gawd would! But! I just want to make him see that to folks like us in Lost Chief who read and think and look at these hills a lot, the Bible never could prove a hereafter to us."
That's all I've got to say!" exclaimed Judith stoutly, in spite of her chattering teeth. "The worst I ever did to Oscar Jefferson was to play bucking bronco on that old milch cow, Jinny, of his. And she sure-gawd could buck! But I was only a little girl then and I can prove it." "Looks as if we might be in real trouble to me!" muttered Douglas.
I won't disturb the rest of you." "What do you want of me?" demanded Scott from his place between Judith and Inez. "Come outside and I'll tell you." Scott grunted derisively. "It sure-gawd has got to be something more than that to win me out of this position. I'm the envy of Lost Chief, old sheep-man!" There was a general laugh. "Go on out and see what he wants, Scott," said Peter.
Scott said something that riled Doug and Doug hit him. Scott drew and got Doug through the left shoulder, bad, but clean, and I've got the wound dressed. Say, if you women don't keep quiet, I'll sure-gawd hang up. O, hello, Charleton! Yes, Scott made a clean get-away. Now, listen, Mary. I'm going to keep Judith here to-night to help me and you can come down to-morrow. Yes, that you, John?
