sea captains voice. Dapper gray
haired gentleman steps up and calls
him down, as follows:
''Waddye mean yelIin' like that, an
cursin' an swearin' in front O. these
ladies'? If I owned this place I'd
throw yuh tub hell OUT With
which he nodded to each of the ladies
and left before the roughneck finished
his conversation.
