"'Well, you're my property now, and I've got a proposition to make to you. There's my horse outside hitched to that post. Get on him and ride out to my plantation, two miles from here; anybody'll tell you where it is. Talk to my negroes around the quarters, and then go over to Mr.

"I'll put it again, and you needn't be afraid that anybody'll overhear us in this place, it's safe! I say once more, what for did you not tell in your evidence at that inquest that you saw Sir Gilbert Carstairs at the cross-roads on the night of the murder! Um?" "That's my business!" said I "Just so," said he. "And I'll agree with you in that. It is your business.

We'll probably suspend him until he apologizes to the society I'm on the board, and I'm in favour of it. Who is the bird, anyhow? He's in your class."
