F'r my part, I ain't got no use fer anything thet wears skirts 'cept one er two, mebbe," he added reflectively. "Most men I kin git 'long with fust-rate; but ef a man ever gits in trouble, er begins cussin' an' acts ugly, it's 'cause some gal's rubbed him crossways the grain er stuck a knife in him an' twisted the blade so's ter speak." "You're an observant lad, I see."
Johnnie, ef you ever get a invite to a dance I'll lend 'em to you. Hit'd pleasure me to think some gal's feet was dancin' in them thar slippers. Lou, she never learned to dance looked like she could never find time." Louvania, be it remembered had found time in which to die. So Johnnie thanked poor Mavity, and hurried away, because the warning whistle was blowing.
"Gal's gone to telephone for the medical sharp, who'll show up on Number 20 when she goes through Jackleg. I'm to meet him. Or," and he began to chuckle again, "José Reposa was, and I took his place so's to meet you here as I promised." "And lots of good your meeting me seems to do me," growled the man called Pete. "Well, old fellow! is that my fault?" demanded the puncher. "I don't know.
"By heaven, Bill! The feller responsible for the murder of my little gal's father, a father she just loved to death, don't git away with his play if I know it. The feller that hands her an hour's suffering needs to answer to me for it, and I'm ready to hand over my life in seeing he gets his physic. There's no one going to get away with the boodle Allan gave his life for not if I can hold him up.
Nice an' quiet an' house broke, ain't he? In my part of the country they dress this kind of a man in gal's clothes so's nobody'll ever get sore at him an' spoil his pretty face. Better go home to your ma. This ain't any place for you. They's men aroun' here." There was another one of those grimly expectant hushes and then a general guffaw; Dan showed no inclination to take offence.
Of course we might be able to take him in the sleigh, but but he don't look much as if he could stand the trip does he? an' an' I don't reckon we can do much good stayin' round here either." He stepped over to the door and opened it. "That gal's right," he said. "Hugo looks desperate sick." "Sure it ain't nothin' that's ketchin', are ye?" asked his wife, drawing back a little.
I don't know whether you're a judge of pigs or no. The Hazard gal's come back, spilt, pooty much, I guess. Been to one o' them fashionable schools, I 've heerd that she 's learnt to dance. I've heerd say that that Hopkins boy's round the Posey gal, come to think, she's the one you went with some when you was here, I 'm gettin' kind o' forgetful.
"If you'll show me the lady's room I'll carry her right into it an' set her on her bed, an' " "Mercy alive, what's the world a-comin' to!" cried the indignant farm-wife. "Me let the likes o' you into the gal's bedroom! You? Guess you need seein' to by the State, as the sayin' is. I never heard the like of it. Never. An' she jest a slip of a young gal, too, an' all."
"Going to take it easy, after all!" said the trader. "Gal's got grit, I see." The woman looked calm, as the boat went on; and a beautiful soft summer breeze passed like a compassionate spirit over her head, the gentle breeze, that never inquires whether the brow is dusky or fair that it fans.
Old Sam said it wasn't right to play with a gal's 'art in that way, but arter a lot o' talking and telling Sam to shut up, Ginger took the bet. He was quite certain in his own mind that Miss Gill would slam the door in Peter's face, and arter he 'ad started off next morning, Ginger and Sam waited in to 'ave the pleasure of laughing in 'is face.
