"What's she meetin' this millionaire in a wood for—on the sly?"
"She don't! Hermy ain't like that."
"I tell ye she does!" cried M'Ginnis, "an' him kissin' an' squeezin' her an'—nobody by—"
"It's a lie, Bud—she—she wouldn't!"
"S'posin' I could show ye? S'pose you see him there—waitin' for her—"
"If—if he means any harm t' Hermy, I—I'll kill him!"
"Aw—you wouldn't have the nerve, Kid!"
"I'd shoot him dead—by God, I would!"
"You ain't man enough, Kid."
