W'y 'e'd sign anythink." Once the train was laid, it was a simple matter to fire the mine. When Hozier awoke, to find the launch heading west, he was vastly astonished by Coke's programme. It was all cut and dried, and there was really nothing to cavil at.
It was Weston, the steward, who spoke. "I wish you'd come and look at Jackson, sir," he said. "The poor chap wore all right when Mr O'Neil comed down jist now, and a sleepin' still as when you seed him awhile ago. But all of a suddink he starts up as he hears you a comin' down the companion-way, sir, and is jabbering away like anythink!" "Oh, but," I exclaimed, "why did you leave him?"
'I don't mind if I do, said the burglar. But the cook said 'No, miss. Not me, not even in a dream. I don't say anythink ag'in the young chap's looks, but I always swore I'd be married in church, if at all and, anyway, I don't believe these here savages would know how to keep a registering office, even if I was to show them.
"You look very lonesome, dearie!" remarked the landlady at last, with a large wooden spoon in her hand. "Can I get ye anythink? A drop o' kind rum or nice brandy or say a glass o' purl a drop o' purl took warm would be very comfortin' for your little inside." "Thank you no!" said I, a little shortly.

This yarn about his comin' this way is on'y got up to 'ide the fact that they don't know a thing about it. I don't b'lieve he's anywhere within coo-ee of our place.
"Why, here's a J," said Joe, "and a O equal to anythink! Here's a J and a O, Pip, and a J-O, Joe." Wishing to embrace the present occasion of finding out whether in teaching Joe, I should have to begin quite at the beginning, I said, "Ah! But read the rest, Jo." "The rest, eh, Pip?" said Joe, looking at it with a slow, searching eye, "One, two, three.
There was a short silence: then, "Did Mrs. Barrett ever... see anythink, like?" somebody vaguely inquired. Barrett turned austerely on the speaker. "What Mrs. Barrett saw and Mrs. Barrett didn't see shall not pass these lips; even as it is written, keep thy tongue from speaking evil," he said. Another man spoke. "He was pretty near canned up in the Waggon and Horses that night, weren't he, Jim?"
Going to the corner cupboard, in which Mrs Willis kept her little store of food and physic, I stood there pondering what I should do. "Please, sir," said Slidder, sidling up to me, "if you wants mutton-chops, or steaks, or port wine, or anythink o' that sort, just say the word and I'll get 'em." "You, boy how?" "Vy, ain't the shops full of 'em?
I don't think she'd 'ave missed anythink, she wur so oncommon silly. You ain't a-goin' to pocket it, air you?
But when a gentleman says to me, 'Beeves, I'm obliged to you, why then, Mr. Smith, you feels at one and the same time, that he's a gentleman, and that you aint a boot-jack or a coal-scuttle. It's the sentiman, Mr. Smith. If he despises us, why, we despises him. And we don't like waiting on a gentleman as aint a gentleman.
