How about those dogs, Charley?
SITKA CHARLEY
I get um all right by and by.
VANDERLIP
I want them right away, to-day.
SITKA CHARLEY
Yesterday you tell me to-morrow.
VANDERLIP
To-day, I tell you to-day. Never mind the price. I must have them—good dogs. Tonight, twelve o'clock, have them down at the water-hole all ready, harnesses, grub, everything in shape. And you're to drive them down river for me. Sure?
