1 This bosom friend was Joe Harper.
2 I never used a weepon in my life before, Joe.
3 At last luck seemed to settle and abide with Joe.
4 "It's a dirty business," said Joe, without moving.
5 I always liked you, Joe, and stood up for you, too.
6 Now," said Joe, getting up, "you got to let me kill you.
7 Because he'd just got that whack when Injun Joe done it.
8 Joe harassed him awhile, and then he got away and crossed back again.

19 He moped to school gloomy and sad, and took his flogging, along with Joe Harper, for playing hookey the day before, with the air of one whose heart was busy with heavier woes and wholly dead to trifles.
20 The tick tried this, that, and the other course, and got as excited and as anxious as the boys themselves, but time and again just as he would have victory in his very grasp, so to speak, and Tom's fingers would be twitching to begin, Joe's pin would deftly head him off, and keep possession.
