Who give you rights to go 'round takin' such beauty an' joy out of the world? Who do you think made this world an' the things 'at's in it?

"They're Mezcallero 'Paches, and the'r food, th' mezcal, grows thick round ther'. 'Sides, ther's no other place on th' stream combinin' grazin' and waterin', and they've never been hunted into that region yit." "Well, Paul, they will be now." I urged the men on as fast as possible, taking care not to exhaust the horses and unfit them for a long pursuit.
Same old rag-chewin' going on up at Cat Biggs's and the other waterin' troughs about how you've got to be done up, if it costs money." "That isn't new," objected Lidgerwood irritably.

I used to see the child rampagin' around the rocks in sneakers and cotton dresses, and her ma readin' to her pa in hammocks on the piazza; but later years she's gone with 'em to waterin' places in Europe. Leastwise that's what folks say, though where they'll find any more water than they can here gets me. You know how some folks is. The fishin' 's always better somewheres else.

"Give us the whole lay, Doc," urged Pale Face Harry. "And give it to us quick." "Me mouth's waterin'," observed the Flopper, licking his lips again.
