Chee, but I was rattled! Wot was happenin', I says t' meself, an' w'y was it happenin'? De tourin'-car come back ag'in an' in it was Brisco an' Spang, but de odder guy had been left somew'ere. De tourin'-car was backed into de well, w'ere de runabout had gone, an' I started dis way t' see wot I could find. Say, Matt, I was knocked stiff w'en I found yous! Great, ain't it, how luck takes a shoot, once in a w'ile? If dat---- Wot's de matter w'id yous? W'ere yous goin'?
gpt
Come on! said he.
human
We haven't got any time to lose!
gpt
Say, panted Josh, as he and Matt traveled rapidly along the road,
human
Do you know what Brisco intends to do with the Red Flier?
gpt
He's layin' in a supply o' benzine-buggies t' start a garage, 'r somet'ing, ain't he?
human
He ran off with that touring-car just to play even with me, Josh. He says I've meddled with his affairs long enough, and that he's going to run the Red Flier over a cliff just to pay me back for using the car to help you people.
gpt
Wouldn't dat frost yous?
human
And he said I was seventy-five miles from Fairview, went on Matt,
gpt
Brisco has got anodder guess comin'. He ain't so warm. Dad can show him a t'ing 'r two, an' don't yous fergit dat. Chee! Dat guy's de limit. But wot's yer game, cull?
human
You say that both cars are in that 'well,' as you call it?
gpt
Dat's w'ere dey was w'en I started for here.
human
Well, I'm going to get the Red Flier away from that outfit!
gpt
Say, cull, returned the boy,
human
I like yer nerve, all right, an' I marks yous up f'r de entry, but how yous goin' t' git under de wire? Dere's t'ree o' dem guys, an' dey've got a lot o' artillery. How we goin' t' git away wit' de car if dey don't want us to?
gpt
I don't know, replied Matt,
human
Yous is a reg'lar lollypaloozer, Motor Matt, an' I'd back yous t' win any ole day, but dis looks like too big a load. But yous can count on me. Dad'll tell yous dat I'm big f'r me age an' no mutt in a getaway, so jest set yer pace an' I'll push on de reins.
gpt
How far is it to the place where the automobiles were left?
human
We're close t' dere now. I'm wonderin' w'y Brisco dropped yous widin a short walk o' de hang-out--dat is, if he was fixin' t' stay at de place?
gpt
I don't know, answered Matt;
human
If yous hadn't picked up dat bunch o' tramps on de road yous wouldn't have got into dis fix.
gpt
I'm not sorry I helped you out, Josh.
human
Sure not. Yous ain't dat kind, Motor Matt. All de same, yous would have been peggin' along to'rds Albuquerque, nice as yous please, if it hadn't been for dat crowd o' Uncle Tommers. Dere'll be doin's in Fairview in de mornin', w'en dad finds out yous ain't w'ere yous ought t' be.
gpt
What can your father do?
human
He can do a lot w'en he gits started. Don't yous never t'ink he's a slow one, Matt.
