They complained that the country was getting too damn Sunday school, and young Tom had better tame down a little before he got into trouble.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 216   ~   ~   ~

She strewed the Devil's Tooth range with wheels and doubletrees and splinters and hairpins, and scattered sunshiny smiles and cuss-words and snatches of song wherever she went.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 584   ~   ~   ~

Maybe he's too damn' agreeable or something.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 593   ~   ~   ~

I dunno what you pin your argument on, Al, I'll be darned if I do."

~   ~   ~   Sentence 723   ~   ~   ~

And damn yuh, I'll fight yuh now with the law--which is the only way a coward will fight.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 729   ~   ~   ~

But when you come belly-achin' around about me stealin' a spotty yearlin'--jest as if there wasn't but one on the Black Rim range!--why, damn it, _you'll prove it_!

~   ~   ~   Sentence 821   ~   ~   ~

Anybody does something mean, everybody says, 'Damn Lorrigans done it.'

~   ~   ~   Sentence 942   ~   ~   ~

Get over there, before I brain you!

~   ~   ~   Sentence 956   ~   ~   ~

One of these days I'm going to just naturally brain you, Sub.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,327   ~   ~   ~

"My old dad woulda gone out and shot up a few, but times are changed and we're all getting so damn civilized we've got to stack the cards or quit the game.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,358   ~   ~   ~

"I thought at the time that Coaley was liable to be a damn expensive horse for you to be ridin'."

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,381   ~   ~   ~

"Darn fool kid--let the old folks git to scrappin' amongst themselves, and the young ones start the lovemakin'!

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,394   ~   ~   ~

To interfere in a love affair went against the grain, but to let a Lorrigan make love to a Douglas on the heels of the trial was a pill so bitter that he refused to swallow it.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,537   ~   ~   ~

"So have I lived here all my life; but I'll be darned if I would want to sit in this shack all day, the way the wind whistles through it."

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,603   ~   ~   ~

"Any man that will let a woman sit all day in a place like this--and I don't care a damn if you are earning money doing it!--oughta have his neck wrung.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,618   ~   ~   ~

Scotch stubbornness--and not a damn thing to back it up!

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,700   ~   ~   ~

Tom, your husband, the self-confessed father of your offspring, to-day rode to an alleged schoolhouse, threatened, ordered, and by other felonious devices hazed three Swedes and the four Boyle kids out of the place and toward their several homes and then when the schoolmarm very discreetly locked the door and mildly informed him that she would brain him with a twig off a sage-bush if he burst the lock, he straightway forgot that he was old enough to have a son quite old enough to frighten, abduct and otherwise lighten the monotonous life of said schoolmarm, and became a bold, bad man.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,732   ~   ~   ~

"She's got spunk enough now for two of her size.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,733   ~   ~   ~

Had that club lifted, ready to brain me when I went in, just because I'd spoiled her rules for her.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,775   ~   ~   ~

"I hope to heck I haven't come home to remodel the morals of the country, or to strut around and play college-young-man like a boob; but on the square, folks, it looks to me as though the Rim needs a lesson in citizenship.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 1,797   ~   ~   ~

I've a notion that the Black Rim, taken by and large, is a damn sight worse than the Devil's Tooth outfit.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 2,104   ~   ~   ~

"Now, that's damn white of yuh, Tom," he said.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 2,105   ~   ~   ~

"I leave it to the boys if it ain't damn white.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 2,108   ~   ~   ~

And uh course, I didn't like to go round askin' fer help; but it's damn white of yuh to step in an' do yore share towards making the Rim look like it was civilized.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 2,145   ~   ~   ~

I hate fights," Miss Miller stammered, agitated by a wild feeling that perhaps she was going to be made love to.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 2,215   ~   ~   ~

"This poor boob here who thinks he wants to fight me just because I'm a Lorrigan, I never saw before.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 2,392   ~   ~   ~

He sat beside her, and she felt that he was thinking about her, felt that his heart was making love to her--hated herself fiercely for the feeling, fought it and felt it just the same.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 2,433   ~   ~   ~

"Next time a Lorrigan dance comes off--" "What I'd a done, woulda--" "Fix them damn Lorrigans!"

~   ~   ~   Sentence 2,446   ~   ~   ~

"Who was it said he was going to fix them damn Lorrigans?" he demanded, coming at them warily.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 2,449   ~   ~   ~

Now, who is it wants to fix the damn Lorrigans?"

~   ~   ~   Sentence 2,476   ~   ~   ~

"You damn Lorrigans, you got us comin' and goin'," he complained, "but shake, anyway.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 2,556   ~   ~   ~

He had invented two new cuss-words.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 2,760   ~   ~   ~

Never had he made love to her....

~   ~   ~   Sentence 2,996   ~   ~   ~

Hasn't been a killing in there for years, but that's because they're all so damn tough they know if one starts shooting it'll spread like a prairie fire through dry grass.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 2,998   ~   ~   ~

Far back as the country was settled--well, they say the first Lorrigan went up in there to get away from the draft in the Civil War, and headed a gang of outlaws that shot and hung more white men and Injuns than any outfit in the State--and that's going some.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 3,016   ~   ~   ~

He never did a damn thing, never tried to kill the Scotchman, never acted up at all.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 3,039   ~   ~   ~

Tom's a big-hearted cuss--I know Tom--tried to sell him a car, last fall.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 3,517   ~   ~   ~

Nh-hn--yore damn right."

~   ~   ~   Sentence 3,525   ~   ~   ~

"Yeah--yo're damn right.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 3,541   ~   ~   ~

"He's damn lucky you ain't Tom.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 3,552   ~   ~   ~

Tom Lorrigan's damn smart man."

~   ~   ~   Sentence 3,803   ~   ~   ~

He looked at the hoofprints, turned back and rode down the schoolhouse trail again, following the tracks of the fagged black horse.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 3,835   ~   ~   ~

"Yeah--_damn_ hot," testified Jim Bloom.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 3,875   ~   ~   ~

Tom's damn right.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,015   ~   ~   ~

Their horses were fagged.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,123   ~   ~   ~

"I'm seventeen kinds of a damn fool--but I can't stand any more of this!" he muttered savagely, and rode at a sharp trot with his back to the slow-gathering storm.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,284   ~   ~   ~

--And I'll _buy_ the damn team, so kill 'em if you have to.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,391   ~   ~   ~

In the kitchen Lance sat and watched her, and made love to her with his big eyes, with his voice that made of the most commonplace remark a caress.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,442   ~   ~   ~

"Tom's damn smart man--me, I'm mebby smarter.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,450   ~   ~   ~

You damn smart--you don't like them damn jail.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,456   ~   ~   ~

"Me, I'm don' know them damn word," he decided.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,464   ~   ~   ~

"I'm know them damn word you call.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,467   ~   ~   ~

You're damn right."

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,583   ~   ~   ~

And my side--things are all busted up in there.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,616   ~   ~   ~

But they're cute--they're _damn_ cute.

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,804   ~   ~   ~

But you wouldn't kill me a damn bit quicker than I'd kill _you_!

~   ~   ~   Sentence 4,877   ~   ~   ~

Not so damn much, either, if you look at my side.
