Usage examples of "boling".
Joe Leone had said, "they've got Vincent Boling running their show, an' you know what he is.
Certainly any outfit that hired Vin Boling to ramrod such a deal, and men like Pace, Mather, and Bordie to carry it out, was planning on riding roughshod over any opposition.
Madden turned at the booming voice and found himself facing Sid Bordie and a man he remembered vaguely as Vin Boling.
That Vin Boling or one of the men with him had established secret contact with Russ Fagin seemed obvious, and if they had, they would know about Chipan.
Yet when he zoomed over the savanna where Boling's planes had been, the craft were gone.
You think that Boling and his crowd will go into Chipan with Fagin after that gold?
Not over three miles from Boling's base he had noticed another small lake.
The tall trees near where he had shot down Bordie's plane formed the apex of a triangle of which the other two corners were the pool for which he was headed and Boling's base camp.
When his sense of distance and timing assured him that he was approaching the savanna where Boling had his base, he moved more slowly, and purposively.
That still left Boling, Frank Mather, and Pace, three tough customers, together with whoever they had to service the planes and maintain the base.
Evidently Boling had the same idea that he did, and after their return they had no idea of staying around.
They clutched spears and machetes, and despite the undoubtedly superior armament of the Boling crowd, Turk knew they were in for trouble.
As Turk zoomed over them Boling waved an arm, evidently thinking him to be Sid Bordie, returned.
No doubt she was a hostage, but knowing the fanatacism of natives when their tabu has been violated, Turk was sure that she would be of no use to Boling.
There was no stair on this side, and he knew that by now Vin Boling would be ascending.
