Probably it was best to follow the old army rule of keep the mouth shut, never volunteer, no explanations. If Hunt Rennie had had the story from Topham or Nye, he already knew how the fight began. "I won’t have troublemakers on the Range." Now the voice, too, was tired. The youthfulness which had impressed Drew on their initial meeting had drained from this man tonight.
"When my gran'pap war a-strivin' aginst all manner of odds fer peace," she said, disdainfully, "thar was them thet kept hamperin' him by whoopin' on ther troublemakers an' I've done heered him say thet one turrible hard man ter reason with bore ther name of Aaron Capper." The elderly spokesman of the delegation flushed brick-red and his heavy lashes gathered close in a menacing scowl.
The officers had no choice but to take them, so the late troublemakers, now amid jeers and hoots from many of the workmen, were led outside and into the 'bus. "You'll hear from this!" hissed Hawkins, in the young chief engineer's ear. "I believe you," nodded Tom thoughtfully. After the police and their prisoners had gone Tom led his own party back to the house.
Now go you Allan and get club that will do. And then will you, stranger, give this villain a sound trouncing." And Sir Percival stayed so that the troublemakers did not depart. So Allan brought a club which suited the stranger. Now did the two battle long and well. Both the stranger and he who fought with him were of great strength and each was exceeding quick.
Here again the apostle excuses the Galatians, while he blames the false apostles for disturbing their consciences and for stealing them out of his hand. How angry he gets at these deceivers! He calls them troublemakers, seducers of poor consciences. This passage adduces further evidence that the false apostles defamed Paul as an imperfect apostle and a weak and erroneous preacher.
I suspect that they're the leading troublemakers down in that hall. Blanchard, if you're not afraid of your own men, come along!" He clapped the millman on the shoulder and led the way toward the door.
Only, that sort of rep don’t go down good with th’ Old Man." "We figured it might not," Drew agreed. Nye’s warning was only another confirmation of Drew’s fears. Topham, Nye, all the rest, had made it only too plain: no trouble on the Range and no troublemakers. He gathered up clean underrigging, another shirt.
We have had object-lessons enough as to the danger of procrastination, and in India as elsewhere time is on the side of the troublemakers.... We cannot hope to reconcile Indian Extremism. What we can hope to do is to free from its insidious influence all that is best in Indian public life by opening up a larger field of useful activity."
The system of recruiting was a tradition too hard to break. Earth used it as an escape valve for her troublemakers. And since such volunteers made some of the best of all fighters, they had already decided the outcome of more than one war. By carefully juggling the attention given the stations, Earth could influence the battles without seeming to do so.
"You noticed that his gentleman's agreement with Le Sangre? I've made him detest fighting with the idea that only brute beasts fight men argue and agree." "I've noticed that he never has trouble with the cow-punchers." "They've seen him box," chuckled Elizabeth. "Besides, Terry isn't the sort that troublemakers like to pick on. He has an ugly look when he's angry." "H'm," murmured Vance.
