Kid Wolf sang the tune softly to the whispering wind, as the trio climbed under a New Mexican moon to the top of a vast mesa. "Guess yuh'll find some plenty bad ones here in Skull County, eh, Kid?" laughed Red grimly.
Fawtuhn were a leetle severe on thu ole fellah, don't yuh think? But he manages ter git home with hes leetle ole hunk o' quawtz, tells thu ole woman wheah he found it, an' petehs out, hisself.

Kid Wolf swung his hat aloft, and he and his white horse soon blurred into a moving dot on the far sweeps of the Chisholm Trail. "Oh, the cows stampede on the Rio Grande! The Rio! The sands do blow, and the winds do wail, But I want to be wheah the cactus stands! And the rattlah shakes his ornery tail!" Kid Wolf sang his favorite verse to his favorite tune, and was happy.

That's the man whut said he was goin' to build the Magic City at the forks of two rivahs wheah the wind didn't blow." By and by, when he had unhitched and fed his horse Seth came down the street, passed the whittlers of the little sticks and went on up the Lexington Pike to his home and Celia's. He walked laggingly. There was something that he must tell Celia and he was afraid.
"I've just remembahed," drawled The Kid, "wheah I saw a pair of low-heeled, square-toed ridin' boots." Anton gave a low whistle. "By golly, boys. He's right! I remember now, too." "So do I!" ejaculated Lathum. "How about lettin' us go, too?" asked Wise. "Goliday has some hard hombres workin' for him, and " "Please leave this to me," begged The Kid. "Yo' duty is heah with these cattle.
"Yankees are obligin', one way or another." Drew licked his fingers appreciatively. He had been exploring the sugar supply. "I've missed sweetenin'." "Drink up, boys, and get ready to ride," Wilkins said, coming out of the dark. "We've marchin' orders." Kirby reached for the pot and poured its contents, with careful measurement, into each waiting cup. "Wheah to now, Sarge?
One of these heah peccaries, a good-natured peccary, too, with a laikin' fo' little children, found you in the cyclone. You were a pretty little baby with big blue eyes the same's you've got now. I don't know exactly wheah the cyclone found you. Anyway, the peccary picked you up in his mouth.

Then, he resumed his conversational tone: "Befo' the wah we nevah had no good times. They took good care of us, though. As pa'taculah with slaves as with the stock that was their money, you know.
Git us wheah we can light a spell, an' I'll divide my rations with you." He waved the musket with its impaled ham. "Maybe we'll do jus' that," Kirby promised.
