"Say, Rowton, wrap up that little merror an' them side-combs an' send 'em along, too, please. So long!" Part II Time: Same morning. Plate: Store in Washington. Second Monologue, by Mrs. Trimble: "Why, howdy, Mis' Blakes howdy, Mis' Phemie howdy, all. Good-mornin', Mr. Lawson. I see yo' sto'e is fillin' up early. Great minds run in the same channel, partic'larly on Christmus Eve.
We haven't much; but if he is baiting for hundreds of Blakes in America he may secure, in the aggregate, a very tidy sum indeed." "Oh, Father!" cried Nan. "That's perfectly horrid!" "But perfectly possible. Let us not swallow this bait, hook, line and sinker.
It's curious that several of my friends have wanted to do so first the Colonel, then Bertram, and now you. Not flattering, is it? Suggests that you doubt my talents, or that I look like a deserving object of charity." "You're incorrigible. It was the Blakes' misfortune that they could never be serious, but I admire your pluck."
"Yes, indeed; anything I can," eagerly responded Ashton. Gowan's face darkened at sight of the smile with which the girl rewarded the tenderfoot. Yet instead of sulking, he joined in the evening's entertainment of the guests with a zeal that agreeably surprised everyone. His guitar playing won genuine praise from the Blakes, though both were sophisticated and critical music lovers.
With perfect precision he will point out a certain tract of country and tell how, in the old, old time, it was, "reigned over" by the O'Flahertys, and then was owned by the Blakes, who disposed of part of their country to the present possessors.

"Yes, she wakened me from selfish ease to see the sufferings of others, and to realize my sisterhood to them." "Yes, but you must first have had a heart to be touched, or all the Mrs. Blakes on this planet could not have wakened it."
He did not know that the Blakes never let the poor fellow load his old gun with anything but powder. Then his joining the horrified group, as if he had been merely after the ducks, and had been attracted by the cry, had entirely deceived us; and but for Hester's accusation, Brand's evidence, and his own flight, together with all the past, might have continued to do so.
McLaggan, wouldn't you like a nip yourself? The minister was on horseback, and always carried a whip with a heavy lash, and it was a beautiful sight the way he laid the lash on those Boyles and Blakes. I really think you had better turn them out of the school, Mr. Philip, or else they will turn you out." Mr. Philip's lips closed with a snap.
It may be many years off, and I may be an old woman, but when the Hall comes to me at grandfather's death I shall return it to the Blakes." In the silence which followed he found himself looking into her ardent face with a wonder not unmixed with awe.
