Natalie Poussette, poor woman she is so delicate, so fonny, so so ill, she cannot have any leetle babee; no leetle children play round their fader that's me, Amable Poussette, beeg man, rich man, good Methodist, built a fine church on top of the Fall. Many a time I feel like go on the dhrunk.
"The baby?" laughed Percival. "The babee?" said the girl with a look of scorn. "No, the watch. How I can put the babee in the boy pocket? That is stupid. It is easy to do when I am so close to the boy and he not know it. You have the watch then. You are be arrest, yes?" "No, I was not arrested, and I found an owner for it.
Whatsoeuer became of the treasure which vsually is brought in roials of plate in this gallion, we could not find it. We had only two or three of these hornes which are of the colour of a browne gray, and some reasonable quantitie of Amber-griese. They call in their language the Coco Calambe, the Plantane Pison, a Hen Iam, a Fish Iccan, a Hog Babee.
So now our boats stay out through the season, and when they have a big haul put into Gloucester or Annisquam to sell their fish, only bringing home such as they cannot find a market for. It saves many wrecks, and they make more money, but it is often hard on those left at home!" "Yes, yes, that is true, I make no doubt! But do you live here quite alone, you and the babee?"
One ol' T'ytee woman she work for her to keep all chil'ren clean, an' eat, an' she notice two day ago one mornin' she more thin. She ask her, 'Where that babee? She say the varua, a bad devil, take it.
"M' man," she whispered, "dey keel heem, dey hang heem! M' babee, dey take it away, d' pries' he sing sing an' wave candle an' bury it in snow. Leetle Ford, d' keel heem! D' punish Indian man, d' hang heem, m' man! Moyese, he keel leetle Ford: he go free, not'ng hurt heem!" She burst out laughing, low voiced cunning laughter. "I go see," she said. "I ride down hog's back t' d' mine! I go see!
Then gendarme take hol' Pepe, and she tell right out she 'fraid for her husban', an' when babee born she go in night an' dig hole an' plant her babee under rosebush. Now, maybe white people say that Pepe jus' like all T'ytee woman."
But if you will be so kind, sir, as to speak of me to Mees Clairville, should my wife, Mme. Natalie die! Tell her, sir, how I am good man, au fond, sir, by my nature; how I love the leetle babee, plenty small babee; how I am kind, jolly man, by my nature, sir; how I would like to marry with her, give her good tam. You tell her this, Mr. Ringfield, for me, and make me your best friend, sure?"
