He brought the car to a halt beside one of the small wooden shelters built for the convenience of passengers. "You forgive me you understand, Janet?" he asked. "Sometimes I don't know what to think," she said, and suddenly clung to him. "I I forgive you. I oughtn't to suspect such things, but I'm like that. I'm horrid and I can't help it." She began to unbutton the coat he had bought for her.
I have an itch to go off and wander and explore, make of my life a drama, risk my life; for, as for a few miserable years more or less!...

While she guided her horse with her bridle hand, Julie perceived her unbutton her holster pipe, and seize and cock a Colt's revolver. "I have one, too," muttered Julie; "so I guess I'll do the same thing." Not a bit of cowardice did the sweet exhibit now.

"It is eleven mile, but the road is bad. Drifted." "I will wait till to-morrow," said Northwick, and he began to unswathe and unbutton, but so feebly that Bird noticed. "Allow me!" he said, putting down his pipe, and coming to his aid. He was very gentle and light-handed, like a woman; but Northwick felt one touch on the pouch of his belt, and refused further help.
"How tired he is, poor pet! How hot he is!" she said commiseratingly. "Good gracious! You might at least unbutton your collar. My goodness, how your throat is pulsing!" "I am done up, my dear," groaned Kuzma Vassilyevitch. "I've been on my feet all the morning, in the baking sun. It's awful! I meant to go home. But there those vipers, the contractors, would find me!

The little fellows are just sure the country-jake is going to fall off, he reels and totters so; but the big boys tell them to keep watching out; and pretty soon the country-jake begins to straighten up.
