Ah-ah! cried the Italian, his face glowing and his black eyes snapping.

Hold on, said Chet, stepping forward.

Nobody's stealing your monkey, and don't you say we are. He was up the tree there and my sister got him down for you. I reckon if you treated him half decently he wouldn't run away from you.

You! Ha! sputtered Tony.

You one o' dem fresh boys, eh? Give-a me da monk!

Let him have the creature, Laura,

He'll beat him. See how frightened poor Bébé is!

Can't help it, said her brother.

Calla me da dago, too! stammered the angry Italian.

I fix-a you for dis!

Come on and do your fixing right now, advised the big boy, easily.

You won't find me as easy as Bébé, I bet you!
human
You 'Merican boys and girls want to steal my monk--want-a spoil-a da act!
