Ralph Darley was quick at observation, and took in quickly the fact that all the men were armed, and looked shabbier than their leader, though not so stout; for he was rubicund and portly, where he ought not to have been, for activity, though in a barrel a tubby space does indicate strength.
"Rotten world is full of danged fools who want money and ain't satisfied when you get it for 'em." "Have you made such a sale lately?" Carey inquired. "Yes; day before yesterday," Champers replied. "Was it the old Jim Shirley quarter, the Cloverdale Ranch?" the doctor asked. "The very place, and I'm in a devil of a fix, too," Darley Champers declared.
I hope Pryor will not be in their line of march." "Pryor Gaines'd better stayed right here. It's what's likely to happen to a man who goes missionarying too far, and we could 'a used him here." It was an unusual concession for Darley Champers to make regarding the church, and Asher looked keenly at him.
Darley Champers was hovering like a hawk between Wykerton and the Grass River settlement. Todd Stewart had taken a claim, while John Jacobs, temporarily in the East, was busy planting the seeds for a new town which no Wyker brewery should despoil. All lovely was this springtime of 1874.

She replied stating that she would take it herself if she could have her children to help her. And they had gone out there in February. Mr. Darley had been kindness itself.
