"And what be this, then, Willum Smith?" was Jan's final question, as he brought his thumb close to his enemy's eye. "It be the miller's thumb thee's got, Jan Lake," was the satisfactory answer. Jan went back to school. I whopped un, I did." So Mrs. Lake doctored his bruises, and sent him off to school again.
"What's the matter now?" the manager asked, after one look at the newcomer's face. "Is the river up again?" "River be blowed it's the niggers. Stepped out of the cane grass, not a dozen feet away, and whopped at me. It was a Snider, and he shot from the hip. Now what I want to know is where'd he get that Snider? Oh, I beg pardon. Glad to know you, Mr. Arkwright." "Mr.
"Ready!" was the sharp reply, "when you say Fire." "Right," replied Bob. "Now then, old check-petticoat, are you going to call off your men?" For answer the Malay pointed to the two trembling girls, and signed to his men to advance with their spears. "I'm horribly alarmed, Tom!" cried Bob, "but retreating now is showing the white feather, and we shall be whopped.
When she told me all them things and begged me to come home I thought I had best come. But I don't mean to let the matter drop here, tell your folks. The fellers who wrote that letter must be hunted down and whopped like they was niggers. Did Marcy Gray do it?" "I can't swear that he didn't," replied Tom guardedly. "But if he did, he disguised his hand so that I do not recognize it.
Hodson laughed too, and then looking more grave and nodding his head, said, "I'm afraid he's better, Sir Pitt. He was out on his pony yesterday, looking at our corn." Will brandy and water never kill him? He's as tough as old whatdyecallum old Methusalem." Mr. Hodson laughed again. "The young men is home from college. They've whopped John Scroggins till he's well nigh dead."
No, sir; I waited for his challenge, but it never came: and the next time I met him he begged my pardon, and said, 'Strong, I beg your pardon; you whopped me and you served me right. I shook hands: but I couldn't live with him after that. I paid him what I owed him the night before," said Strong with a blush.
"I did promise that I would never fight against the old flag agin, but that's neither here nor there. My year is pretty nigh up, and I'm going to stay around home and eat good grub for a while. I don't mean to say that I won't never 'list again, but it won't be till I've seen some others whopped like I have been."
The boys jeered at him in the streets some whopped him, spite of his diminutive size. At school he made but little progress. He was always sickly and dirty, and timid and crying, whimpering in the kitchen away from his mother; who, though she loved him, took Mr.
"You fellows know," Johnny had declared once, standing over his prostrate and whimpering foe, "that I don't mind getting whopped at home, but they might send me away to another school, and then I could never whop any of you fellows." Johnny Trumbull kicking up the dust, himself dust-covered, his shoes, his little queerly fitting dun suit, his cropped head, all thickly powdered, loved it.
Johnny had, at the early age of ten, whopped nearly every boy in school, but that was a secret of honor. It was well known in the school that, once the Trumbulls heard of it, Johnny could never whop again.
