turns Oh the typical westerner's gift
for humorous understatements. In the
authors early days In California lie
spent night In an Inn, newly opened.
After he had got comfortably to bed
he was aroused by the noise OF scuf-
fling and shouting, punctuated by oc-
casional pistol shots below.
In the morning, on going downstairs,
he found the landlord with bruised
eye, a piece of court plaster extending
from his cheek to his forehead and yet
with pleasant smile on his face. TAX
ing his cue from this, Harte said,
well. landlord, you had rather a live
ly time here last night"
YES" admitted the landlord, with q
deepening smile. at was rather live
ly time"
"DO you often have such lively times
round hereT continued Harte, embold-
ened by the landlords cheerfulness.
"Well, no." the landlord replied re-
hectively. 'The fact ", we've only Just
opened yer, and Inst night was the first
time the boys seemed TO be getting
really acquainted"
