I aren't a murd'rous sort o' man, Master Carey, but he tried to kill me, only he didn't hit hard enough, and I get thinking that there old ruffian won't be perfeck till he's quite finished. Well, sir, what's to be done? You're skipper now as t'others is both wounded.
Because, said I, if this People go on fighting and snarling at all the World, and one among another in this manner, they will certainly be Ruin'd and Undone, either subdu'd by some more powerful Neighbour; whilst one Party will stand still and see the t'others Throat cut, tho' their own Turn immediately follows, or else they will destroy and devour one another.
'Why yo' see, he's a committee-man on this special strike'. Th' Union appointed him because, though I say it as shouldn't say it, he's reckoned a deep chap, and true to th' back-bone. And he and t other committee-men laid their plans. They were to hou'd together through thick and thin; what the major part thought, t'others were to think, whether they would or no.
T'others would be too soft. Look, sir; don't lose none of it. You may never have such a chance again. Yes; there, they've got the ladder up once more, and some's holding it while the others goes up. Yes. Huzza! they'll do it now. No. If they haven't overturned it again." "Yes," said Fred, sadly, and yet unable to help feeling pleased, so thoroughly were his sympathies on both sides.
"Then I tell you what," said Tom, "as now it's dark he can see us, and we can't see him, I say, sir, let's all have a nap, and directly after the sun's up get ready." "That's good advice, Tom. We can sleep in peace with the way of escape open to us that is, if we can." "T'others can, sir," said Tom; "they're all sound enough."
T'others says they won't. Sort o' depends on whether they can keep Ike Crabtree from killin' of 'em off." He threw his rifle over his shoulder and with a curt nod turned into the bushes and followed the bank to find a crossing. He was away on his fearful business; his youth was hopelessly corroded. I scouted the spot where I had left my horse and discovered no signs of Indians.
We've all been crawling about in the hold like rats, and got to where the t'others are leastwise you have and then you've come back again." "Yes, Bob." "Taken all that trouble for nothing." "Well, but I have been able to talk to them, and make plans." "Bah, sir, I don't call them plans. What was the good of us all getting smothered as we was, just to find out as we couldn't do nothing?"
"It's killing me to stay here. Only to think what the ruffians may be doing at this moment! Adela " "Don't gie yur mind to thinkin' o' things now. Keep your thoughts for what we may do arterward. Yur Adela ain't goin' to be ate up that quick, nor yet my Concheeter. They'll be tuk away 'long wi' t'others as prisoners.
"'Bout what time d'ye think I better git back fur t'others, nurse?" inquired the driver of the wagon, consulting a small pass-book that he carried in his side coat pocket. Agnes was horrified to hear such a brutal question propounded to her in the coolest and most business-like manner. "What do you mean?" asked she, indignantly. "Mean jist wot I says!
Mary sprang toward her, but the stronger woman hurried her away from the spot. "Come; take up the little one 'thout wakin' her. Three more of 'em's a-passin'. The little young feller in the middle reelin' and swayin' in his saddle, and t'others givin' him water from his canteen." "Wounded?" asked Mary, with a terrified look, bringing the sleeping child.
