"The feller took the money and started away; and when he was going out at the door, he sorter jerked his thumb over his shoulder--so--at Dan'l, and says again, very deliberate, 'Well,' he says, 'I don't see no p'ints about that frog that's any better'n any other frog.'"

The man grabbed the money and began to leave. As he reached the doorway, he abruptly lifted his thumb, pointing it in Dan'l's direction. He spoke again, this time slowly and purposefully, saying, "Well," he remarked, "I fail to see any notable qualities in that frog that make it superior to any other frog."
