"They're crowdin' in so thick right around me that I can't breathe comfortable any more; the smell of 'em's in the wind. They're runnin' over three of the biggest ranches up here besides the Alamito, and the Drovers' Association wants a little of your old-time holy scare throwed into the cussed coyotes." Mark nodded in the pause which seemed to have been made for him to nod, and Chadron went on.
I deserved it. Lots of folks talked kind to me before I went; some of 'em's here to-night, an' I thank 'em for what they done. A good many of 'em talked religion to me, but the more they talked the less I understood 'em. I guess 'twas my fault; I never had much head-piece, while some of them had.
"I wouldn't be in a hurry, miss. You can master him, if you try you and the parson: and the worst of 'em's better than none. And you that pretty, too!" "I don't understand you," answered Hetty coldly, and passed on. John Romley was patrolling the pavement outside. She forced up a smile to meet him. "There has been some difficulty with the licence," said she, and marvelled at her own calmness.
Every one of 'em's doing of it, from the time when I don't get up, to the time when I don't go to bed. And I'm a-going somewheres. That's where I'm a- going. She told me, down in Tom-all-Alone's, as she came from Stolbuns, and so I took the Stolbuns Road. It's as good as another." He always concluded by addressing Charley. "What is to be done with him?" said I, taking the woman aside.
'Them two fellers from Bargo; one of 'em's a new chum got his hair cut short, just like Dick's. My word, I thought he'd been waggin' it from some o' them Gov'ment institoosh'ns. I did raly, Dick, old man. 'You're precious free and easy, my young friend, says Starlight, walking over. 'I rather like you.
"'I'm Smiling Faces this load of poles, I says. "'Why, Blister, says the sec. 'I never thought it of you! But we're much obliged to you just the same. "There's eight starters in the handicap besides Hamilton. One of 'em's a big clumsy colt named Hellespont. The bunch calls him the Elephant, 'n' he's sour as lemons. I see his eyes a-rollin' in the paddock, 'n' I know he's hopped.
Gettin' 'em's quite another," Tom suggested. The voice of one of the trappers rose in protest. "By gar, it iss what you call dirt cheap. I make you a present. V'la!" "Got to bore through difficulties," Beresford said. "Then you're liable to bump into disappointment. But you can't ever tell till you try." His friend began to catch the drift of the officer's purpose.
There's five dragons i' that house o' mine: and each on 'em's got teeth and claws, and they knows how to use 'em, they does. If one on 'em wern't a bit better nor t'others, and did not come and stand by me now and then, I should ne'er ha' lived to talk to you this even. Nay, I shouldn't! Best go home, Father, while you've getten a coat on your back, and some hair on your head."
"Too early!" he replied, with a shake of his head. "Much too early. I shall in due course. Meantime, there's another little commission I have to discharge, and I may as well do it at once. There are two or three trifling bequests in this will, gentlemen one of 'em's to you, Mr. Bent. It wasn't in the original will that was made before Kitely came to these parts.
"If you mun face Her, you'd best do it while Ank'ret's next door: both on 'em's too much for any man. Th' Angel Gabriel couldn't match the pair on 'em: leastwise, if he comes down to axe me, I sha'n't send him forward. And don't you go and say I sent you, now. For pity's sake, don't!" Father Thomas walked off, and knocked at the house door.
