Hurry there, you miserable Indian, or I'll fill you full of lead,

You're a rough fellow, my dear Scudder, another voice commented,
gpt
Not me, Foyashi; came the reply,

Captain Bellman is a remarkable man.
gpt
Remarkable? You may lay your head on that, replied the other;
human
How did he induce him to visit him?
gpt

Chapin's a good-hearted chap and when Bellman turned up in Washington one day and sent him a message that he was ill and in trouble Chapin came to the hotel like a bird dog when you whistle it to heel. But you deserve a lot of credit for your part of the business, Foyashi, he went on.

How did you get the lieutenant under your control. He swore he'd die before he told us the method of making Chapinite when we first got him aboard the Mist.

gpt
The cruiser! exclaimed Scudder,
human
My dear friend, replied the other,
gpt
Where do you coal her?
