He can wiggle and squirm like a snake; but he's got no dignity, and no learnin', and what he don't know about law would make a book bigger than the biggest dictionary you ever saw." "Land's sake!" said Mrs. Newbolt, lifting up her hands despairingly. "Oh, I guess he'll do, Colonel Price," said Joe.
"I won't be long settling of his hash." Jack tapped him on the head with a stone, and after a few shivers the animal was still. "That killed him so sudden he didn't know what was a hurting of him." "Why did he shiver then?" "They always do that. They always wiggle when the heart's a-beating. They are dead all the same, though. Now you want to take his hide off." "Not yet," said Bertie, quickly.
While the discussion went on, the subject of it gulped down large chunks of beef which Whitey had begged from the cook, and after that he went with the men and boys to the ranch house, where, with an apologetic leer, and a wiggle of his tail, he stretched himself on the veranda, and fell into a deep sleep. He was very grateful, but he was also very tired.
If they can wiggle out of taking my logs, they'll be to the good, because they've made other contracts down the coast at fifty cents a thousand less.

Do not have your trench near rising ground over which you cannot see, and which you cannot hold.
"Bill Masters can like it or not I'm goin' to lick the livin' tar outa you here an' now. When I'm through with yuh, if you're able to wiggle the wheel, yuh can take your load uh hootch an' go tahell! I'll hoof it down here to the next station on the railroad an' ketch a ride back to L. A." Kenner laughed. "An' what would I be doin', you poor nut?
"It will be the biggest kind of a pleasuah. It will give me a chance to use mothah's little tea-ball. I deahly love to wiggle it around in the cup and see the watah po'ah out of all the little holes. I've been wishing somebody would come, or that I had something to do. Now you have granted both wishes. I can have a regulah little tea-pah'ty. Excuse me just a minute, please."

The children sat still for a few minutes longer, and no sound was heard but now and then a wagon going over the bridge. But they might as well have dropped their lines in the sand for all the fish they caught. Horace began to wish he had gone to school.
My new wiggle stick may not find oil every crack, but I bet I can make it point to half a dozen men who " Gray lifted an admonitory hand. "Patience! It may come to something like that, but I intend to break him first. Can I arrive at terms with you gentlemen?" "Write your own ticket," McWade declared, and Mr. Stoner echoed this statement with enthusiasm. "Very well! Details later.
You cut me, Hiram! It's bleeding!" "No, no, no! Only more lather. Don't wiggle, Jo!" "There! It's all over," Hiram said after a minute of silence.
