The bartender eyed him peculiarly. "Where's this Kentucky and what's a mint-julep?" "On Terra, of course, where I came from. Where'd you think it was, on Andromeda Seven?" "Pardon me, sir. I seem to remember now, having heard of such a drink. I'll have to look it up in the recipe-book I disremember the ingredients." Hanlon grinned and lost his appearance of truculence.
"Where'd you ever know Chick?" demanded Myrtella with instant suspicion. "We both live on Billy-goat Hill. We always wave to each other when I pass by, don't we, Chick?" Chick, who was partially under the bed, still in his character of intrepid hunter, acknowledged the fact with such a torrent of enthusiastic incoherence that Myrtella interrupted sternly: "Come out here this minute.
Where'd you overtake Vaca and his outfit?" "Did I?" queried Waring. "Well, you got the mazuma," said Quigley. "And that's good enough for me." Donovan stepped to the table. "Williams, I won't need you any more to-day." The assistant rose and left the office. Donovan pulled up a chair. "Never mind about that receipt, Quigley. You can witness that Waring returned the money.
I wouldn't give a dern to know what's the matter of Phillips, I says to myself. Well, in the morning we put on the aperns and got a couple of trays of truck, and Tom he knocked on the door. The man opened it a crack, and then he let us in and shut it quick. By Jackson, when we got a sight of him, we 'most dropped the trays! and Tom says: "Why, Jubiter Dunlap, where'd YOU come from?"
Thus brought to a "show down," Tom promptly pulled out his billcase and opened it in the light that streamed out of the doorway. The woman could see that he carried quite a bundle of notes and that they were not all single dollar bills! "Land o' Goshen!" she ejaculated. "Where'd you steal all that money, ye young ruffian?
"My eyes are sore from the smoke. I can't half see." Lee was not yet quite herself. The experience through which she had just passed had shaken her nerves. "Let's get out of here quick!" she cried. "Take yore time. There's no hurry," Prince iterated. "They won't shoot again, now Jim's close to us." The younger man grinned, as he had a habit of doing when the cards fell against him. "Where'd we go?
He stretched up to her pink ear to answer, for Grandpa was at the table, still busy over his bowl. "A book," he whispered back, his air that of one who has seen the dream of a lifetime realized. "What? What kind of a book? And where'd you get it? Show it to me." He went into the little closet. When he came out, she went in.
I was settin' talkin' with Alvin Baker and eatin' my second sasser of berries, when " "SECOND sasser?" interrupted Dorinda, sharply. "Where'd you get money for two sassers? I gave you thirty cents when you started for that festival. It cost you fifteen to get inside the gate, and Matildy Dean told me the church folks was cal'latin' to charge fifteen for a helpin' of berries and cream.
"Where'd you get this?" broke in Bunker, giving Denver a dig, and as they went into the tunnel he whispered in his ear: "Keep it dark, or he'll blab to Murray!" "Well, let him blab," answered Denver, "it's nothing to me. But all the same, pardner," he added sotto voce, "if I was in your place I wouldn't bank too much on holding them claims with a lead-pencil."
Doc Madison reached into his vest pocket, took out a penknife whose handle was gold-chased, opened it, and very carefully cut the article he had read from the paper. "Flopper," said he, "you've heard of gold bonds, haven't you?" The Flopper's eyes gleamed an eloquent response. "Only you've never had any, eh?" supplied Doc Madison. "Where'd I get 'em?" inquired the Flopper, with some bitterness.
