Kin a fish swim? Kin a bird fly?" -- "Oh!" he said. "You must be Carl Muller's boy. Howdy, son. I'm mighty glad t'see yuh" -- "Did y'ever see an explosion? Well, that there bay jus' exploded" -- "Injun hoss? I asks Grey Eagle. He grunts an' nods" -- The horses kept up a steady, mile-eating pace all the way into town -- Lonnie was shaken loose on the second jump. He hit the ground hard -- I guess I was up before anyone Christmas morning -- I drew a lot of quick pictures of Uncle Bill -- "That's a shame Cody, but your show's a real money maker" -- Mick was pretty good at swipin' things off the push carts -- Raidin' Injuns ran off some hosses belongin' t'some nearby ranchers -- My bullet hit the rear Injun, went through him, and into the one in front -- Then he waited for the crowd to quiet before he swept off his now famous Stetson -- Orapeso [Orapeza] showed me many little tricks with the reata -- The poor cow lay on the barn floor and moaned out her pain -- "She poisoned me, I tell yuh" Uncle Bill shouted, rising on an elbow -- Uncle Bill had given him and four kings a wild stagecoach ride -- He beamed at me. "Damn if I don't myself, Dan" -- "It sure ain't doin' him any good," Tammen agreed. "Buffalo Bill is a world-wide institution" -- Of course he was always an easy mark for anyone who asked for help -- The wigmaker assured him that no one would ever know he had on a wig -- "It jus' goes t'show yuh, Dan. If yuh're willin' t'be dirty yuh can get all the money yuh want." -- I threw myself on my knees beside her bed and buried my face in the covers -- I didn't look at him. I was beginning to feel ashamed at having failed to do my job well -- I picked up a ride into town on a freighter's wagon -- He threw back a tuft of his sandy hair and started to play the mouth organ -- "The next time Charley sees 'im, Carl's got the Cross-Up brand on a fine roan gelding" -- Smoky's eyes became mere slits. "Muller," he said, "yuh can't laugh yuhr way out o' this." -- "Where yuh from?" the lawman asked -- Another man, an expectant, fearful look around his eyes, held my horse's head -- Finally Uncle bill smiled. "Do I recollect right? Yuh're nineteen now?" -- "Dan," he would say his eyes pleading, "I'll be sick, boy" -- We went together to Irontail's lodge. His copper-colored face was crinkled with pain -- The hair-wet back was slippery. I felt myself flying through the air -- That was Hightower's moment. He exploded, high, wide, and handsome -- Besides, I got interested in one of the girls on the ranch -- I bought two horses at a livery stable in Denver, and from there I struck out south -- So Uncle Bill signed a note for another $20,000 -- "Oh, Bill," Tammen said, "I thought I'd ask about that note" -- When Isham came to the block I was nearly sick with anger -- I quietly climbed out of my blankets and drew my gun -- "You speak with straight tongue," Irontail commented -- Rheumatism made his mounting of Isham a nightmare -- I learned that cattle and horses are worked differently in the Southwest than they are in the north country -- At last I managed to get up the courage to offer the Colonel the little poke I'd been nursing. 001460433 520__ $$aMuller's father had been a friend of Bill Cody; when he was orphaned at nine, Muller went to live in the Cody household for 20 years.
