13 "Look at Bim!"
14 Doctor Warren Stone, who had recently located in Norwalk
----Edwin B. Tilton.
15 "Bim, you did nobly."
16 "She's sure some
nifty jane!"
17 "Why don't you cop
her while she's young an' ------ care- less?"
18 Just pals ---- with common joys and woes and growing hunger pains.
19 "Come on, Bill, I'm
goin' to get us a swell feed."
20 The original anvil
chorus.
21 "If someone doesn't
do something about that boy's future, he'll turn out just like that lazy good- for-nothing Bim!"
22 "If talk was a
breeze, kid, that bunch would be a cyclone ---"
23 "The law'll take
care o' this."
24 "Hello, chef --- anything
we can do for you today?"
25 "'sassinate dem
poultry fo' me an' you both eats."
26 "I ain't hungry
---- are you?"
27 "No ---- let's go."
28 "It's your bounden
duty to see that the boy is sent to school."
29 "How long since you
had a bath?"
30 "I don't remember
--- how long since you had one?"
31 "None of your busi-
ness! But you're going to get one pretty quick!"
32 "Bim! What are you
trying to do?"
33 "He should start going
to school Monday --- and I want you to promise me that he will."
34 "He won't like it
much, but if you say he ought to go---I'll see that he does."
35 "There ain't nothin' the
matter with you, is there? You didn't go to school, did you? Then why in hell send me?"
36 "It don't make no dif-
ference 'bout me---I guess Miss Bruce knows best---an' I promised her----an' so you're goin'!"
37 Monday---and he went.
38 "The law'll take
care o' this."
39 "William---stand up!"
40 "William---a man had
seventeen apples--- he ate two and sold seven- - - how many were left?"
41 "Seven."
42 The end of the first day was not the end of woe.
43 "Wait --- I'm going
to scare that new kid stiff."
44 "Them clothes makes
you look like Bim!"
45 "That's nothin' to
be 'shamed of--- Bim's a swell guy!"
46 "Swell guy! Why,
he's the town bum!"
47 "He said you was
the town bum!"
48 "---an' he said you
wasn't fit to live with pigs."
49 "By gosh, I said
you were!"
50 "I'm short in my
accounts ---- the traveling auditor's due and if you don't help me out----"
51 "How can I help
you out?"
52 "You're in charge of
the school memorial fund --- they're not using it now ---"
53 "Let me keep it
in my cash until I make up the shortage."
54 "Mr. Holt, I got respon-
sibilities now---an' I want a job ----- can't you use me?"
55 "Get a uniform and
I'll put you on as porter."
56 "Gee, Bim! Won't
you look great in a uniform."
57 "If you should
need it, send me word and I'll bring it over in ten minutes."
58 Uniforms ---- even in his dreams ---
59 "An' you risked your
life like this for a no 'count bum like me!"
60 "Will he live,
Doc?"
61
"Oh, he'll pull
through all right."
62 The doctor's wife.
63 "That's the same boy
--- and if we get him away from Bim, we can get the re- ward."
64 "And you did it
for me, what ain't worth as much as your little finger ---"
65 "Take that skullcap
off and try to look motherly."
66 "You poor darling
child."
67 "He won't be laid
up long, will he?"
68 "There's no telling.
He's going to need a lot of attention--- a mother's care and absolute quiet."
69 "I'll work my fingers
off ---- I'll give him everything he needs, Doc."
70 "But you can't give
him a mother's care ---- and that is most important."
71 "The poor, dear child
--- who could think of money at a time like this."
72 "You must agree
to leave him alone and entirely in my hands and I'll take care of everything."
73 It isn't long before Bill is well enough to ask embarrassing questions.
74 "Well, my little
man, how do you feel today?"
75 "Rotten --- all dressed
up like a damn bullfighter!"
76 "Say, why hasn't
Bim been here to see me?"
77 "He said he was
going away --- seem- ed mighty glad when we offered to take care of you."
78 "Aw, you're crazy
with the heat."
79 "Well, what do
you want?"
80 "I thought I'd call
and see how the kid's getting along."
81 "If you want him
to get well quickly, you'll have to keep your promise and stay away from here."
82 "Will you give him
these flowers, so he'll know I'm thinkin' of him?"
83 "Well, dear children,
the fund you all worked so hard to raise is now complete and the memorial will be started at once."
84 "Now, Miss Bruce,
if you will turn the fund over to us ---"
85 "I'll go for it
at once."
86 "Bim, will you take
this note to Mr. Cahill, personally? And hurry --- please--"
87 "I've got a letter
for Mr. Cahill --- very important."
88 "He won't be back
for an hour ---- will you wait?"
89 "The law'll take
care o' this."
90 "The school teacher
just drowned her- self and I'm going for the doctor."
91 "When you didn't
come she drown- ed herself."
92 "You get me that
money --- now! They ain't goin' to call her no thief!"
93 "Say, Cahill, I got
a scheme that'll interest a guy in your fix."
94 "Supposin' my gang
robbed the Express Office tonight ----- they'd never know you was short."
95 "Empty!"
96 "That's why she
tried to drown herself."
97 "You had the money
--- what have you done with it?"
98 "I ain't got nothin'
to say."
99 "The law'll take
care o' this."
100 "You dirty crook!
We're going to ride you out of town on a rail ------ and don't you ever come back."
101 "There goes Bim
with my horses --- plug him!"
102
"What the hell
struck us, anyhow?"
103 Nightfall across the trail to Nowhere.
104
The constable
communicates with
the county seat.
105 "Say, pard, any
chance of hornin' in on the eats?"
106 "All right."
107 "Why didn't Bim tell
them, Auntie? Why should he suffer just to protect me?"
108 "Men like Bim ain't
the kind who think of themselves when a good woman's in danger of being mis- judged ---"
109 "---- and that's more
than I can say for all the memorial committees this town ever had!"
110 The 'little job in Norwalk' does not appeal to Bim.
111 "The boobs will all
be at prayer meetin', and it's goin' to be an easy job."
112 "We may be boobs,
but they ain't no gang o' thieves goin' to rob our town, if I know it!"
113 While the "good" men of the city pray---
114 "I told you crooks
they weren't no gang goin' to rob our town --- an' I meant it!"
115 "Sheriff, I didn't
have no part in this robbery---I---"
116 "Why, the damned liar!
He planned this job."
117 "It's that damn Bim
again --- get a rope!"
118
"Sheriff, you can have the other guys but this bum's goin' to decorate the limb of a tree!"
119 "I'm leaving this
town tonight and you're going with me!"
120 The never-to-be- forgotten rumble of Judge Lynch's mob.
121 "They're after me!
Hide me!"
122 "Don't let 'em hang
Bim! The man they want's inside fight- ing the teacher!"
123 "Hold on, boys! This
kid says the real culprit's hiding in the school."
124 "By Gad, you won't
tell them!"
125 "You did this for
my sake, Bim?"
126 After which, the heroes would have been welcome to any spare bed in town.
127
"William, darling,
your father's here!"
128 "I guess the other
kid'll have to take my place."
129 "Goodbye---pal."
130 "That's not my boy!"
131 "I thought it was
darn funny! The last time I heard of my old man he was in Sing Sing."
132 "Another one of your
happy ideas."
133 "Do you know this
man?"
134 "I do! He's the dis-
charged chauffeur who kidnapped my boy!"
135 "Say something ---
you big stiff!"
136 "I-- I-- Bill says
--- I mean --- you know ---- if --- well, will you?"
137 "The law'll take
care o' this."
