"All you've got to do is to hold your arm out straight, pull the trigger, and squint afterward." "I sha'n't hurt the Barone," smiling faintly. "Are you going to be ass enough to pop your gun in the air?" indignantly. Abbott shrugged; and the colonel cursed himself for the guiltiest scoundrel unhung. Half an hour later the opponents stood at each end of the tennis-court.
Chaffanbrass to preserve unhung, to these he was, if not civil, at least forbearing; but when any barrister, who was comparatively a stranger to him, ventured to oppose him, there was no measure to his impudent sarcasm and offensive sneers. Those, however, who most dreaded Mr. Chaffanbrass, and who had most occasion to do so, were the witnesses.
Bezkya, the son of my old patient, came well recommended as a good man and a moose-hunter. A "good man" means a strong, steady worker, as canoeman or portager. He may be morally the vilest outcast unhung; that in no wise modifies the phrase "he is a good man." But more: the present was a moosehunter; this is a wonderfully pregnant phrase.
You have the honour of being sister to one of the greatest scoundrels unhung; and, if I may venture to say so to a lady, you are in every respect quite worthy of him. But connected with you two is a third party, a villain of the name of Quilp, the prime mover of the whole diabolical device, who I believe to be worse than either.
He waited hopefully it seemed, but Faith did not know how to answer him, and he went on rather ruefully: "But, all the same, you're willing to marry me without telling your mother till afterwards?" "Yes." "Isn't that rather foolish?" She flushed sensitively. "I don't know what you mean." "I mean, that for all you know, I might be the biggest blackguard unhung.
His idea was to get behind this sustained listlessness. "How goes it?" he began, heartily. "A bit up in the world again; eh?" "Why did you bother with me?" "Because no human being has the right to die. Death belongs to God, young man." "Ah." The tone was neutral. "And had you been the worst scoundrel unhung, I'd have seen to it that you had the same care, the same chance.
I know you to be one of the most infernal thieves and scoundrels unhung. If you attempt to hector with me, I will cane you; if you want more, I'll shoot you; if you meddle between me and Dawkins, I will do both. I know your whole life, you miserable swindler and coward. I know you have already won two hundred pounds of this lad, and want all. I will have half, or you never shall have a penny."
I've no doubt, now, he filled your mind with all sorts of nonsense about me probably told you that I was the greatest villain unhung, eh? and all that sort of thing? Poor fellow! He was a fine sort before his mind became unhinged. One of his fancies used to be that everybody else was insane, or just about to become insane. Is he still as bad as that?"
They were in a ravine near the magazine landing, not more than fifty feet from the spot where the Lillian was launched. Foley, Tom, and Hildey crouched low, and drew the little girl closer. The steady dip of oars was heard up stream, and the voices grew plainer. Out of the mingled sounds was heard, "I agrees with Sandy, he's the dirtiest coward as ever went unhung."
One man fell within a few feet of me, and afterwards died. They had a running fight till they got out of hearing. They caught young Hall, the only one I knew, and killed him. Notwithstanding the agreeable disappointment at not finding myself killed, I concluded that it might not be healthy to stay around there. The town contained one of the most unprincipled white men that ever went unhung.
