Bein' single myse'f that a-way, females is ondoubted what
Doc Peets calls a 'theery' with me. But nevertheless, in an
onpresoomin', lowly way, I gives it as my meager jedgement, an' I
gives it cold, as how a jealous woman is worse than t'rant'lers.
She's plumb locoed for one thing; an' thar's no sech thing as
organizin' to meet her game. For myse'f, I don't want no
transactions with 'em; none whatever.
"This yere domestic uprisin' of Dave's wife breaks on Wolfville as
onexpected as a fifth ace in a poker deck; it leaves the camp all
spraddled out. Tucson Jennie an' Dave's been wedded goin' on six
months. The camp, as I relates, attends the nuptials in a body, an',
followin' of the festivities, Tucson Jennie an' Dave tumbles into
housekeepin' peaceful as two pups in a basket.
"Wolfville's proud of 'em, an'every time some ign'rant bein' asks
about Wolfville an' the social features of the camp, we allers
mentions Tutt an' his wife, an' tells how they keeps house, sorter
upholsterin' our bluff.
"That's how the deal stands, when one day up jumps this Tucson
Jennie, puts on her sunbunnit, an' goes stampedin' down to the U. K.
House, an' allows to Missis Rucker that she's done lived with Dave
all she aims to, an' has shore pulled her picket pin for good.
