He always lived in the same funny little old house even after he made lots of money, until he built Highacres. He was terribly queer. I used to be dreadfully afraid of him because he always carried a big cane and had the awfullest way of looking at you! His eyes sort of bored holes right through you, so that you turned cold all over and couldn't even cry. I'm glad he's dead.
He couldn't use it, and dar'sn't keep it; so he used to bury it in spots round here and there in the awfullest heathen way ye ever heard of.

"It's about the very awfullest thing we've ever done in our lives. Fancy the governor carting that child all the way from here! Oh, lor'!" Judy nodded again. "Can't you speak?" he said irritably. "You've got us into this I didn't want to do it; but I'll stand by you, of course. Only you'll have to think of something quick."
He'll go down now and grind out about four reams of the awfullest slush about that old rock and give it to a consul, or a pilot, or a nigger, or anybody he comes across first which he can impose on.

"He tore his neck free, he says, and yelled back at him: 'What do you say? "'I think I hear breakers ahead, sir, howled the man, and came rushing aft with the rest of the watch, in the 'awfullest blinding deluge that ever fell from the sky, Wilmot says. For a second or so he was so scared and bewildered that he could not remember on which side of the gulf the ship was.
As we came away, three old Irishwomen leaned against the wall at the corner of the yard, watching the men at work inside.

An' thin, they'll try you, an' try you, as if you was goin' to be hanged."
"I'm sure they couldn't do worse.... "Look at the war the awfullest thing that ever happened: that's a sample of what men do, when they try to do everything themselves.... But they'll have to let the women out of their traps, if they want them to help.... "I wonder if they ever will let them out.... "I wonder if they ought to come out.... "I wonder...."
