Then you haf mek me steal you out of thot place couple days before!
"Does yo' hear anything yit?" "You think he can smell out an enemy, do you?" chuckled Jack. "He done gotter great head, Buttsy has," declared the black man. "If dere is anyt'ing prowlin' aroun' permiscuous like, he's de boy to hear 'em yes, sah!" "By the same token it was a flock of geese that saved Rome," Mark said. Wash had his back to the thick clump of firs. Jack was facing him.
"Done ye good, den. Nebber seen ye look so nice afore." "You'd look nicer'n I do, if you were only dressed up," said Dab. "Just you put on these." "Golly!" exclaimed the black boy.

Ere he landed on his feet, he saw the white camp spread out before him and knew where he was and remembered all that had passed from the time he went for a stroll with Manuel to the hole he had dug for himself the night before. A shout from Francois hailed his appearance. "Wot I say?" the dog-driver cried to Perrault. "Dat Buck for sure learn queek as anyt'ing." Perrault nodded gravely.
She opened it and set it down in front of her little mistress. "Do's yo' want anyt'ing else, Missy Flora?" she asked. "If I do I'll call," replied the little girl, and Mammy again disappeared.

"Anyt'ing yo' wants, Massa Tom!

"T'ree vair' good dogs," Francois told Perrault. "Dat Buck, heem pool lak hell. I tich heem queek as anyt'ing."
