"And that will be just what you will enjoy, mother," sez Thomas J. Sez I, in a strange axent, "I never laid plans for going to China, but," sez I, "I do feel that I would love to see the Empress, Si Ann. There is sunthin' that the widder Heinfong ort to know."
Do you know who you're speakin' to?" "Yes," sez he feebly, "I'm speakin' to Josiah Allen's wife, and I want to set." His axent wuz heartbroken and I fancied that there wuz a little tone of repentance in it. Could I influence him for the right? Could I frighten him into the right path? I felt I must try, and I sez in a low, deep voice: "I'll help you to set if you'll set where I want you to."
I see he wuz doin' sunthin' he ort not to do, meachinness and guilt wuz writ down on his liniment. But my axent and mean wuz such that he produced the object and tried hard to explain and apologize.
Faith had got up and gone out onto the piazza, and he riz up ponderously and proudly and follered her. And onless I put cotton in my ears, I couldn't help hearin' what wuz said. I could hear his proud axent and her low gentle voice in reply. Sez he, "Miss Smith, of course you hain't known me long, but I feel that we are well acquainted. I have watched you when you hain't known it."
He wuz too small boneded and his head too weak to grapple with the lures and temptations that would surround him, and I'd never give my consent to his goin, much less lead him into temptation. "Lead your granny!" sez he in a rough axent. And that wuz all the good my lovin' talk did.
When all of a sudden I hearn these strange and skairful words comin' like a sharp shower of hail from a clear June sky: "Malviny is goin' to freeze to-night!" There wuz a skairful axent on the word "freeze" that seemed to bring all of Malviny's sufferin's right in front of me.
I looked curiously at him as I concluded this true tale, but he murmured almost mechanically "I want to mingle with 'em, Samantha; I feel that I want to be intimate with 'em." But his axent wuz weak, weak as a cat, and I felt that my efforts wuz not bein' throwed away. So I hurriedly laid holt of another true incident that I thought on, and hauled it up in front of him.
