"If that ain't just like you, Billy," said Jimmy, "you all time got to perpose to make nigger heads yeller and you all time getting little boys in trouble. You 'bout the smart Alexist jack-rabbit they is." "You perposed this here hair business yo'self, Jimmy," retorted his fellow-conspirator.

I'm not blamin' you fur anythin'; but I may never, 's long's I live, find any one who will understand things th' way you understand 'em. Here! I tell you about that gulch an' you see that gulch. You know how th' rain sounded thar, an' how th' shack looked, an' th' life I led, an' all th' thoughts I had, an' th' long nights, an' th' times when but never mind. I know you know it all.

Do you know," he added, in a burst of confidence, "I don't suppose that, leavin' Sam Hunniwell out, another soul has asked me to eat at their house for ten year. Course I'm far from blamin' 'em for that, you understand, but " "Wait. Mr. Winslow, you had tenants in this house before?" "Yes'm. Davidson, their names was." "And did THEY never invite you here?"
"So ye've j'ined the majority in this town, hev ye, Aileen? I don't say ez I'm blamin' anybody fer wantin' his pay; I'm jest sayin' it don't set well on me the way they go at it to get it. How's the quickest way to git up a war, eh? Jest keep talkin' it up talkin' it up, an' it's sure to come.
An hour later they again drove up to Skipper Cy Blink's trading store, and received a hearty welcome from the Skipper. "I'm wonderful glad to see you! Wonderful glad!" greeted the Skipper.
