"That's too bad, ma'am," said Sim Gage, "but don't you worry none at all. You set right down here on the aidge of the side walk, till I git the horses fixed. They're scared of the cars.

I hev been so onlucky ez I couldn't make out ter pay him nohow in the worl'.

Ole General Scott, he didn't call it no joke when he, went in thar to settle 'em down, did he? I calc'late, mebby it was jest fer a josh them troops waited on the aidge, ready to go in if he didn't git back a certain time! 'N' that wasn't so fur back, shorely, only two years.
But Sonny has seen the day thet seem like he couldn't talk about another thing but her an' her dimpled knuckles them an' that little brown mole thet sets out on the aidge of her eyebrow.

He gwine say, 'Run for it, niggah! Yaas, Lawd, I sholy gwine do what you say I gwine run to de very aidge of de yearth. "Oh, I fool you, Mister Oberseer Man! Oh, I fool you, my ole Marster!
