"I cannot say, sir, that I have the pleasure of remembering you." "Man, I'm a son of auld John Wilson of Brigabee." "Oh, auld Wilson, the mole-catcher!" said contemptuous Gourlay. "What's this they christened him now? 'Toddling Johnnie, was it noat?" Wilson coloured. But he sniggered to gloss over the awkwardness of the remark.

She had just foalded up into its proper triangular shape the noat transcribed abuff, and I was just on the point of saying, according to my master's orders, "Miss, if you please, the Honrabble Mr. Deuceace would be very much ableaged to you to keep the seminary which is to take place to-morrow a profound se ," when my master's father entered, and I fell back to the door.

But I'm talling ye, I simply will noat go to his house to put up with a wheen damned insults!" he puffed in angry recollection. "To tell the truth," said Wylie, "I don't like to call upon Gourlay either. I'm aware of his eyes on my back when I slink beaten through his gate, and I feel that my hurdies are wanting in dignity!" "Huh!" spluttered Brodie, "that never affects me.

"Whose is it?" said Brodie. "Oh, have ye noat heard?" said the Head of the Town with eyebrows in air. "It beloangs to that fellow Wilson, doan't ye know? He's a son of oald Wilson, the mowdie-man of Brigabee. It seems we're to have him for a neighbour, or all's bye wi't. I declare I doan't know what this world's coming to!" "Man, Provost," said Brodie, "d'ye tell me tha-at?

But, unfortunately, most of them were poar; and love and a cottidge was not quite in master's way of thinking. Well, about this time my Lady Griffin and Miss G. made their appearants at Parris, and master, who was up to snough, very soon changed his noat. The ladies, if they hated befoar, you may be sure detested each other now wuss than ever.

Dawkins, and that pye you brought yesterday; and hearkye, you scoundrel, if you say where you got it I will break every bone in your skin!" These kind of promises were among the few which I knew him to keep: and as I loved boath my skinn and my boans, I carried the noat, and of cors said nothink. Waiting in Mr. Dawkinses chambus for a few minnits, I returned to my master with an anser.

"Noat to-night, Mr. Gourlay," he stammered and his unusual flutter of refusal might have warned Gourlay "noat to-night, if you please; noat to-night, if you please. As a matter of fact eh what I really came into the town for, doan't you see, was eh to attend the meeting the Provost has convened about the railway. You'll come down to the meeting, will ye noat?"

He had gone forward to pass pleasant remarks about the weather, and why should he noat? he was no disgrace to Barbie, but a credit rather. It was not every working-man's son that came back with five hundred in the bank. And here Gourlay had treated him like a doag! Ah, well, he would maybe be upsides with Gourlay yet, so he might! "Such a rickle of furniture I never saw!" said the Provost.

Pickwick, made such a dixcripshun of a prizn, that mine wooden read very amyousingly afterwids; and, also, because, to tell you the truth, I didn't stay long in it, being not in a humer to waist my igsistance by passing away the ears of my youth in such a dull place. My fust errint now was, as you may phansy, to carry a noat from master to his destined bride.
