"The best way's to settle him jest as he comes over the hill, half-a-mile away, with an ounce o' cold lead put where he lives. That'll take the pint offen his bayonet mighty certainly."
"Only $27.50 apiece. Holy smoke! They're payin' 10 times that in some places.""That's so," accorded Si. "It's like tryin' to make a grass-bellied horse run a quarter-stretch."
ONE:"All right, then. Load at will. Load! Forward!March!" commanded Si.With a shiver of apprehension, with a nervous memory of the bitter hours just past, with the sight before their eyes of the scarcely-cold dead, the remainder of the company fell in with sadly-shrunken ranks.

FORE:"I don't think another pull at that old applejack 'll hurt me a mite. I really didn't git a square drink the first time, because I was choked off by astonishment at findin' it wasn't water. I'll just take enough of a swig to finish up that drink."

But it had received all that it could hold of its ghastly freight and moved off.As they headed toward the big front doors others followed, but there was no use bothering about that.
