Not illustrated. 1907 edition. Excerpt: ...good game on the steamer," said Cooley warmly. "I don't care what he did on the steamer, he played like a goat the only time I ever played with him. You know he did. I reckon you was there!" "Should say I was there! He played mighty well--" "Like a goat," reiterated the fat man firmly. "Nothing of the sort. You had a run of hands, that was all. Nobody can go against the kind of luck you had that night; and you took it away from Sneyd and me in rolls. But we 'll land you pretty soon, won't we, ole Sneydie?"
