"What did he say?"
"Not much of anythin'; but kept cryin' 'bout all the time. Sam Barney must be feelin' awful good after makin' so much trouble."
"Have you seen him?" Seth asked, sharply.
"If I had he'd be lookin' for a doctor. I'm jest achin' to get my hands on that duffer in some side street where the perlice won't come snoopin' 'round."
"See here, Dan, you mustn't fight if you ever want to get that Third Avenoo store, for I tell you no feller gets ahead by bein' a tough. What did the lawyer say?"
"I didn't hear him yip; but reckon you'll know all about it after goin' over to Ninety-four's house."
"That's where I'm bound for now. Wait outside for me, an' I'll come to you as soon as I can."
"I don't suppose I could sneak in?"
"I'd rather you didn't, Dan, 'cause it would look as if I was gettin' mighty fresh to bring my chums along."
"All right, old man; I'll wait outside."
