The footsteps go by, and you look at their maker. It is Gibb Ogle surging up the walk and yanking his ponderous feet this way and that with tremendous energy. Nothing but a fire or a loose lion can make Gibb run, and you don't take any stock in the lion theory; so you tumble out after him.
Now there was Jim alarming the whole Desert, and yanking the animals out, for miles and miles around, to see what in the nation was going on up there; there warn't nobody nor nothing that was as close to the noise as HE was, and yet he was the only cretur that wasn't disturbed by it.
"What's the matter?" he cried. Then his light flashed on the two prostrate lads, and he understood without asking any further questions. "Get up!" he cried, seizing Sam by the back of his neck, and yanking him to his feet. Ned arose, and secured a better grip on the sneaking lad. "What's up?" demanded Tom, and Ned explained, following it by the question: "See any more of 'em?"
Call to him, please, and enlist his sympathy in the noble cause of yanking us in out of the wet." So Frank did shout to the cowboy, who, having beached the two boats below the rapids, was hurrying up the shore.

As the last word left Dalton's lips, the arm of the detective shot out through the darkness, and closed with the grip of a vise around the ruffian's neck, throttling him to silence. "With a gun, eh?" Chick fiercely muttered, yanking Dalton backward into the body of the carriage.
Corporal Henry, at the end of a prolonged yawn, asked, "Are we going to start at this hour every morning, sir?" "Yes, usually," I replied. "How far do we go to-day, Frank?" "Eighteen miles is the scheduled distance," answered Frank. "How fast do men march?" "Three miles an hour," said I. "Then we shall be in camp by ten o'clock. I don't see the sense of yanking a fellow out of bed in the night."
And Morse said he'd never forget seeing poor old Kernin yanking his line first this way and then that and not knowing where to try to haul it. It made him laugh to look back at it. They might have gone on laughing for quite a time, but Charlie Jones interrupted by saying that in his opinion a landing net is a piece of darned foolishness. Here Popley agrees with him.
"Oh, she's going with him there are no frills to the affection of Caroline Darrah! She'll be bending over his camp-fire yanking out his hot tamales in less than a month glad to do it. Won't you, beautiful?" answered David gleefully to Caroline's beautiful confusion.
"Hold that water, you " "Hold that water!" "Turn her on, I say." "Turn her " "Wow turn that nozzle the other way " And then the water comes with a mighty rush, yanking the nozzlemen this way and that and sweeping firemen and common citizens aside as if they were mere straws.
