The note of defiance was stronger. "Oh nuthin, only I'm Jake Tompkins, that used ter work fer Jimpson at the still. Me 'n yer daddy war pards; I used ter set 'em up ter him heap o' times." "Yes," replied Dick bitterly, "I know you now. You gave my father whiskey and then laughed when he went home drunk and drove my mother from the cabin to spend the night in the brush. You know it killed her."
Couldn't stand him. This hyar son of Belllounds is a son-of-a-gun! Me an' pards of mine, Montana an' Bludsoe, are stickin' on wal, fer reasons thet ain't egzactly love fer the boss. But Old Bill's the best of bosses.... Now the hunch is thet if you git on hyar you'll hev to do two or three men's work." "Much obliged," replied Wade. "I don't shy at that."
Whatever it was Las Vegas said to them fellars, shore they didn't give him away. Pretty soon more men strolled into Turner's an' there got to be 'most twenty altogether, I reckon. Jeff Mulvey was there with his pards. They had been drinkin' sorta free. An' I didn't like the way Mulvey watched me. So I went out an' into the store, but kept a-lookin' for Las Vegas.

It is a good while since I was on this lead, and I want to see how it has been worked since I went away." He came back in half an hour a good deal worked up.

The Triangle X boys uttered whoops, and joined the game at speed. Not gaining as rapidly as they wished, they produced long revolvers and began to shoot. It is a little difficult to hit anything from a running horse.
Felix hastily swallowed his toddy, with the evident intention of airing his emphatic views, when Wade Ruggles interposed: "Pards, you're gettin' off the track; we hain't got to the religious racket yit; that'll come later. What I want to 'rive at is as to using cuss words and unproper language where the angel hears it.
Here she met several dusty horsemen driving a pack-train. One, a jovial ruffian, threw up his hands in mock surrender. "Hands up, pards!" he exclaimed. "Reckon we've run agin' Dandy Dale come to life." His companions made haste to comply and then the three regarded her with bold and roguish eyes.

I'd pay him so much for the job, and I'd take the risks, and I've stuck to it. "But even that don't always work. Luck sometimes goes ag'in' a man, even when he's working by himself. I remember a thing of that kind that was beastly hard on me.
You're to chase me just as you'd chase a real horse-thief, and I'll try to keep ahead of you. You keep shooting with the blank cartridges as fast as you can. Understand?" They said they did. They did not. But it was fun. Severne rode to the bowlder in the dark gorge I am sure it was the dark gorge and turned. The pards were lined up in eagerness for the start.
