Iain't no horse jockey, but I know I'm flingin' my hoss--good oldhoss--away by tradin' even. But generosity and consideration forwidders--specially good-lookin' ones--was allers a failin' in myfamily. " "I don't know as I had orter, " said the widow, thoughtfully; "if Mr. Stebbins was alive, you wouldn't get the colt so cheap, for he sotevery thing by h...im.
