Not by a blame' sight.

There ain't a coward amongst them Shepherdsons--not a one.

And there ain't no cowards amongst the Grangerfords either.

Why, that old man kep' up his end in a fight one day for half an hour against three Grangerfords, and come out winner.

They was all a-horseback; he lit off of his horse and got behind a little woodpile, and kep' his horse before him to stop the bullets; but the Grangerfords stayed on their horses and capered around the old man, and peppered away at him, and he peppered away at them.
