Thank God they drove you out o' Hungary! And it's all so dog-gone queer. Ain't it queer how things blow from mind to mind like seeds. Lord A'mighty you don't know where they'll take hold. GRANDMOTHER: There come those children up from the creek soppin' wet, I warrant. Well, I don't know how children ever get raised. But we raise more of 'em than we used to.
Joe, shambling and shuffling, took a turn about the room. "Boss, if it was me that stood in his boots the halter would be as good as about my neck; they wouldn't give me no chance to clear myself, they wouldn't let me! Them smart lawyers would twist and turn everything I said so that God A'mighty wouldn't know His own truth!"
"An' I reckon I wouldn' ha' let my po' lil' half-wit chile go if I could ha' helped it. When Mason licked him down The Way o' mornin' it made the soul o' me sick. When the factory burned I thanked A'mighty God for, starvin' or not starvin, the po' lil' feller couldn't go!
'It don't seem right that after living in misery and poverty all our bloody lives, workin' and slavin' all the hours that Gord A'mighty sends, that we're to be bloody well set fire and burned in 'ell for all eternity! It don't seem feasible to me, you know. 'It's my belief, said Philpot, profoundly, 'that when you're dead, you're done for. That's the end of you.

What is you standin' out dar for? Come in, I tol' you." And Frank was seized by the arm and pulled into the cabin, and the door was closed carefully behind him.
Whar's Shade Buckheath? Lord A'mighty! Whar am I at?" He looked around him bewildered, evidently expecting to see the porch of Himes's boarding-house at Cottonville, the scattered bits of silver ore, and the rifled bandanna. He put his hand to his head, and sliding it softly down to the back of the neck demanded. "What's been did to me?"
An' James could take his love away from me, but the Lord A'mighty himself can't take mine from him. An' so 'tis, the world over. You can al'ays love folks, an' do for 'em, even if your doin' 's only breakin' your heart an' givin' 'em up. An' do you s'pose there's any sp'ere o' life where I sha'n't be allowed to do somethin' for James?
You'd see that set of females getting down on their prayer-bones for an old sinner like me, except to ask God A'mighty to strike me dead. I ain't that popular, not yet." "Captain Pott, I don't like that one bit! I canceled all my engagements in the city when Father told me the other day what the ladies of the church were planning to do for you. I did it just to help you, and now "

He's not making carpets there, he's only beating them." The homely illustration drawn from the business in which he had been interested so many years went home to Claridge's mind.
Then came the roll of thunder immediately over their heads, and with the thunder rain so thick and fast that Harry's "ten thousand buckets" seemed to be emptied directly over their heads.
