Tough to Kill
“McAllister said: “Sure.”
“What is it?”
“Win that race and play hell with Markham. He pays for our house and he goes on payin’ till he cries quits.”
Jack Owen said: “I don’t call that a plan. It’s a dream.”
“That’s all you’ll get out of me. Kiowa, get your horse saddled and let’s get outa here.”
Jack said: “Ain’t I comin’?”
“You stay here and get them horses in trim. We’ll be back in a day or two.”
Sarie said: “You two jaspers goin’ courtin’ again?”
McAllister laughed.
“Might do a little on the ...side,” he told her.
Jack snarled: “That ain’t fair. Don’t I get a chance?”
McAllister stood up and went off into the darkness to catch up his horse, saying: “Don’t be too eager, sonny, eagerness never got a man anywhere with a woman.” McShannon followed him. They caught up their horses, saddled and bridled them, shoved their saddle-guns in the boots and got aboard. McShannon felt the excitement rise in him. He knew that there was action in the offing.MoreLess
