Being in a hurry, I did not place my bullet right on the patch, in the muzzle of the rifle and it bothered me in getting down. When it was loaded, I broke for them. I could just see Crandell putting in the best he could and trying to make two-forty time; but he was alone the Indian had left him.
The next morning, the philosopher commanded the throng to remove the pile of stones, and as they did so, a dog was discovered instead of the beggar. The dog sprang up, wagged his tail, and made away at "two-forty" and with him the pestilence departed. For this feat, the Ephesians called Apollonius a god, and reared a statue to his honor.
There ain't a finer sight to me than a blooded horse goin' at a two-forty gait round a smooth track, and the sun a-shinin' and the flags a-wavin' and the wind blowin' and the folks cheerin' and hollerin'. So, when Henrietta said the races was goin' to begin, I says, says I, 'Here, child, take hold o' my arm and help me down these steps; I'm goin' to see one more race before I die.

I like being drawn through the green country and looking at it through the clear glass of the great windows.

"Oh, nothing, only I met the minister coming out of Lydia Orr's house one day awhile ago, and he was walking along as if he'd been sent for Never even saw me. I had a good mind to speak to him, anyway; but before I could think of anything cute to say he'd gone by two-forty on a plank road!" Fanny was silent. She was wishing she had not asked Ellen to tell.
"'Sides, the boss was holdin' of a bottle in his hand, an' seemed to set a heap of store by it." "A bottle, Ted?" cried Frank, deeply interested. "That's what," replied the cowboy, energetically. "But jest why he should reckon such a thing wuth shucks I can't tell ye. But he sent me out to bring you back to the ranch house like two-forty.
