"I am a-laughin' at you, Mayhall Wells," he said, contemptuously, but he was surprised at the look on the good-natured giant's face. "Captain Mayhall Wells, ef you please." "Plain ole Mayhall Wells," said Hence, and Captain Wells descended with no little majesty and "biffed" him. The delighted crowd rose to its feet and gathered around. Tallow Dick came running from the barn.
Lord Bentig and the other chaps that was wid him was standin' waitin', and when we all fell in a heap he nigh bu'st himself a-laughin'.

But what be you a-peepin' out o' the window for?" "Oh, uncle, here's a regiment of soldiers coming down the street with the band playing in front of them." "A ridgment, eh? Where be my glasses?
"No, I don't want to," he replied. "Let Sarah go on an' we'll catch her I got a funny trick ter show you. You'll kill yourself a-laughin'." The Boy's curiosity was aroused and he consented.
