Pullet, who had recovered sufficiently to take off her veil and fold it carefully, "it's a nice sort o' man as Mrs. Sutton has left her money to, for he's troubled with the asthmy, and goes to bed every night at eight o'clock. He told me about it himself as free as could be one Sunday when he came to our church.
"Everything," she answered. "I never had a case like yours. I never had a patient who was run away with, and kicked on the head, and drownded. So I says to Tip, I says, 'I'll do everything. I'll treat for asthmy, erysipelas and pneumony, rheumatism and snake-bite, for the yallers and " "Hold on," I pleaded. "I haven't had all that." "You mought have had any one of 'em," she said firmly.
"I've got the asthmy honey and jest caint sing no more. "You asked 'bout my husband and chillun. I been married fo' times. My first man's name was Dick Hagler, the next Frank Bibby, the next Henry Harris and the last one was Tom Smith. That's where I get my name Ca'line Smith. I never did have but one daughter but she had sixteen chillun. She's daid now and mah granchillun is scattered.
I guess we shouldn't ha' got no such a man to settle down here if he wa'n't so asthmy he couldn't git along where he was. That's the reason he come, they say. He's a bright one!" Dorcas left her sweeping, and ran out after him. For the moment, she forgot his hopeless durance in fleshly walls. "Did he look at 'em?" she cried. "Did he? Tell me what he said!"
"I got the asthmy an jes don' feel like talkin' no more. Long time ago when I was sick master always had a doctor to me now I have to hire one. And they always fed me good and clothed me but after I was free I would go round and work around to git a little sumpin to eat."

"Yis, ma'm, but this, you might say, was worse than usual. Me mother's twin sister died of the asthmy." "Never speak to me when you see me entering into the silence. I was denying fatigue; now I shall have to begin all over!" It was evidently difficult for Mrs. Ivy to again tranquilize her spirit. Her eyes roved fondly about the room, resting first upon one cherished object then upon another.
"Burge's getting so bad wi' his asthmy, it's well if he'll ever do much riding about again." "Yes, we've got a pretty bit o' building on hand now," said Adam, "what with the repairs on th' estate, and the new houses at Treddles'on." "I'll bet a penny that new house Burge is building on his own bit o' land is for him and Mary to go to," said Mr. Poyser.
I'd get down and roll. I would stomp and he would do the same. I wondered how he could tell I'd run that horse. "I remember seeing the soldiers come through during the war. They come by droves stealing horses, setting the cotton on fire and taking sumpin to eat, too. "Yes, I does still member the songs we sung durin' the war but I've got the asthmy and ain't got much wind fur singin'.
