"Come back, yes!" returned the other petulantly, "I had to, mislaid a letter, must have left it here, somewhere. Did you find it?" "Axing your pardon, sir, but might you be name o' Barrymaine, no offence, but might you?" The shaggy head had slid quite into the room now, bringing after it a short, thick-set person clad after the fashion of a bargeman. "Yes; what do you want?"
As soon as I lands I hears a noise and talking, and several people standing about; it seems it were her relatives, who had missed her, and were axing whether she had taken a boat; and while they were describing her, and the other watermen were telling them how I had taken a fare of that description, I brings her back.
"Take it, captain," he cried, "take it; I give it to you without axing tarms; I leave it to yourself, captain. But you'll remember her, captain? The gal, captain! the gal! I leave it to yourself " "She shall never want friend or protector," said Roland.
"Paul, thy heart be good, thy heart be good; thou didst not spill a drop of the tape! Tell me, my honey, why didst thou lick Tom Tobyson?" "Because," answered Paul, "he said as how you ought to have been hanged long ago." Mind thy latter end, Paul, and reverence the old, without axing what they has been before they passed into the wale of years.
"The chances are ten to one that thing couldn't happen ag'in; but luck, just then, war t'other way. Lone Wolf and his men war on their way home, and had no more idea of meeting yer folks than he had of axing me to come down and act as bridesmaid for his darter, when she gits married." "Do ye s'pose he knowed us, Soot?" asked the Irishman.
Why would you go out on the wet grass? Is there none of the black currant jam left?" "No, mother," coughed Minny, "not a bit." "Greg ate it all," peached Sarah, an elder sister; "I told him not, but he would." "Greg, I'll have you flogged, and you never shall come from school again. What's that you're saying, Mary?" "There's a jintleman in the drawing-room as is axing afther masther."
By this time the news had reached Mrs Kelly, in the shop, "that a sthrange gentleman war axing for Miss Anty, but that she warn't to be shown to him on no account;" so the widow dropped her tobacco knife, flung off her dirty apron, and, having summoned Jane and Meg to attend to the mercantile affairs of the establishment turned into the inn, and met Mr Daly and her son still standing at the bottom of the stairs.
"Oh, all right, give it me!" said Mr. Smivvle, rising. "Are you name o' Barrymaine?" "No, but you can leave it with me, and I " "Leave it?" repeated the head, in a slightly injured tone, "leave it? axing your pardons, gents, but burn my neck if I do! If you ain't name o' Barrymaine v'y then p'r'aps this is 'im a-coming upstairs now, and werry 'asty about it, too!"
It was the most monstrous specification and proposal I ever read, and I returned it by the twopenny post, axing her if she hadn't forgotten to include a set of false teeth. Still, I confess, I'm tired of Tooley Street. I feel that I have a soul above hemp, and was intended for a brighter sphere; but vot can one do, cooped up at home without men of henergy for companions?
The excitement was too great for anything like deliberation, or concerted council. "It may be the skunks are waitin' fur Lone Wolf," he muttered, as he stood with his arms bound to his side. "They wouldn't dare to do much without axing him, though I 'spose they might a skulp any man wharever they got the chance, without stopping to ax questions. Helloa! thar he comes!"
