"Glad to know it; I got your letter and looked for you yesterday; have been loafing 'round here since then." "We were not sure of the exact time of our arrival and missed it by twenty-four hours," said Jack; "I hope it caused you no inconvenience." "Not at all not at all. Wal, I s'pose you're ready to start for the ranch, younkers?" "We are at your disposal; we have quite a long ride before us."
And then Jack Halloway threw back his head and roared with laughter, declaring that he had never heard so good a story. "I'll never forget that ride home last year," said Jack Halloway, "after I pulled out in the night and left Deerfoot with you younkers asleep by the camp fire. It took me a week to reach St. Louis, and there wasn't a drop of whiskey to be had on the road.
"These are the younkers we expected," explained Hazletine, "and, if I ain't mistook, they've brought a purty healthy appetite with 'em." "I've heard of such things afore. Howdy?" The man, who was known as "Kansas Jim," his full name being James Denham, extended his hand to each boy in turn, and they dismounted. "I'll look after the animals," he explained.
Wal, things took such a queer shape when you younkers and Motoza seen each other that all the ugliness in him has come out, and that's what's urging him now." "It seems to me, Hank, that if he meant to punish Fred for humiliating him, the method was simple." "How?"
A coarse kind of plaster filled up the surrounding crevices, and served to keep out the air and give a rude finish to the whole. The furniture of the Younkers, if the title be not too ambiguous, would scarcely have been coveted by any of our modern exquisites, even had they been living in that age of straight-forward common sense.
This was a grief before which the loss of their. stepmother seemed as nothing. They had loved their big, kind, good-natured father as a companion, far more than a parent; and the thought of never meeting him again, of never hearing his well- known greeting after his absences, "Waal, waal, younkers, come and kiss your old dad! Did you miss him much, eh?" seemed intolerable.
Then suddenly it steadied, and next minute the boat heeled over, gunwale down on the water, and began to hiss through the waves at a tremendous speed. "Pass them younkers down here!" shouted Bill, when this manoeuvre had been executed. Jack and I were accordingly sent crawling down to the stern under the benches, and presented ourselves in a pitiable condition before the coxswain.
As I strode onwards the little group of excited younkers watched me disappear out of sight on my way to the capital by the following route the second time of trying:
And, as the days go by, Dan and me will take plenty of chance t'show ye just how we feel about ye. We'll pay ye back, with loads of interest, younkers, for the mean things ye've done to us!" As if to emphasize his spite, Owen gave each of them a kick as he stood over the boys, glaring down at them. In the minds of Jack and Hal, torment was raging.
My social disposition, when not checked by some modifications of spirited pride, was like our catechism definition of infinitude, without bounds or limits. I formed several connections with other younkers, who possessed superior advantages; the youngling actors who were busy in the rehearsal of parts, in which they were shortly to appear on the stage of life, where, alas!
