"Any luck?" said Moorshed politely. "Not till we met yeou," was the answer. "The Lard he saved us from they big ships to be spitted by the little wan. Where be'e gwine tu with our fine new bobstay?" "Yah! You've had time to splice it by now," said Pyecroft with contempt. "Aie; but we'm all crushed to port like aigs. You was runnin' twenty-seven knots, us reckoned it. Didn't us, Albert?"

"Twenty dollars extra!" remarked Ellsworth, "You've made the girl laugh." "Man, hush!" said Tom Osby. "Go on to sleep, and don't offer me money, or I'll make you get out and walk."
'I wish to the land I hed, says I. An' then I come away, for my tongue's so turrible spry an' sarcustic that I knew if I stopped any longer I should stir up strife.

"I was tryin' that hard not to laugh when you smelled them aigs, that I come nigh missin' my chanct.
If I've lived here alone all this time, and lived alone everywhere else fer thirty-seven years, I reckon I can cook one more meal." "For your housekeeper!" she said, smiling bitterly.

If the's a thing on earth I enjoy doin' it's sure cookin'. Do you like yore aigs sunny side up or turned?" "Either way. Whichever you like, Mr. Green." "You're eatin' them," Johnnie reminded her with a grin. "On one side, then, please. Mr. Lindsay says you're a fine cook." "Sho! I'm no great shakes. Clay he jes' brags on me." "Lemme eat here in the kitchen.
