"He didn't look up to see her face, an' her voice was so soft an' still, I guess he never thought nothin' of it. Then she held the pocket-book up tight ag'inst her dress waist an' walked off into the bedroom. I al'ays thought she never knew I was there. An' arterwards it come out that that old pocket-book was one she'd bought for him afore they was married, earned it bindin' shoes."
Sam regarded him steadfastly. "And what have you 'seed, Mr. Fallows, may I ask?" he inquired with fine scorn. "Seed? Seed you bindin', of course." "Well, what are ye hootin' about?" Sam was exceedingly wroth. "I hain't been talking much for the last hour." In moments of excitement Ben became uncertain of his h's.
So while Bard and Drew sat together bindin' up each other's wounds because they was shot pretty near to pieces they talked it over and they seen pretty clear that the girl would never marry the man that had killed her father. Of course, old Bill Drew, he'd done the killing, but that wasn't any reason why he had to take the blame.
"Fetch me the new bindin' rope out of the spare manger; an' a bunch of rags, an' some salmon-twine. An' stir yerself!"

Atwixt spring and fall work is 'BLOWIN' TIME. Then Courts come on, and Grand Jury business, and Militia trainin', and Race trainin', and what not; and a fine spell of ridin' about and doin' nothin', a real 'BLOWIN TIME. Then comes harvest, and that is proper hard work: mowin' and pitchin' hay, and reapin' and bindin' grain, and potato diggin'. That's as hard as sole leather, afore it's hammered on the lap stone; it's a'most next to anything.
