He was changing all his ideas of the case in which Eleanor's encounter with the two girls had involved him, since, with Brack for an opponent, he knew only too well that he was in for a hard fight, and if, as he supposed, the opposition was entirely without a reasonable case, a fight in which dirty and unfair methods were sure to be employed. Bessie shook her head.
No one here said anything to her, so it must have been someone who isn't in the house someone who spoke to her after you left her out here alone, Eleanor. And I know who it was, too!" "That nasty looking man you pointed out to me as we were coming along with Mr. Norris?" cried Bessie. "Yes, indeed Brack!" said Jamieson. "He's just the one who would do it, too!
The singing brother on the mainland appeared to amuse him, and he paused to listen, saying, "Dat yere nigger, he got too loud voice!" Then, when he had left our camp and regained the top of the bank, he leaned upon his hoe and yelled: "Say, niggah, ober dere! whar you git dat mule?" "Who you holl'rin' at, you brack island niggah?" was the quick reply. "You lan' niggah, you tink you smart!"
'Yo's a fast brack, an' dat's all dere is to hit. Ef all de watah an' soap yo' done use ain't take no particle of dat soot off'n yo' yit, dere ain't nottin' eber will remove it. "But yo' kyan't change a gal's natur. Pechunia done break her back ober de washtub ter earn de money to buy some o' dem make-up stuff, an' she goes down ter de drug sto' ter mak' her purchases.
He's a lawyer an' a mighty smart man. An' he thinks he knows somethin' about your father and mother." Another figure had loomed up beside that of Jake, and Bessie was hardly surprised to find that it was Brack who was leering at her. "He's right. I know something about them," he said. "There's precious little old Brack don't know, my dear an' that's a fact you can bet your last dollar on."
There's wild talk back there of a railroad goin' to be built some day, joinin' east an' west. It's interestin', but no sense to it. How could they build a railroad through thet country?" "North it ain't so cut up an' lumpy as here," put in Holley. "Grandest idea ever thought of for the West," avowed Bostil. "If thet railroad ever starts we'll all get rich.... Go on, Brack."
The familiar style of my address touched a sympathetic chord in the bosom of the "darkie," and a smile of satisfaction gleamed upon his features as he made answer. Of course he was not asleep. But my idle question was only meant as the prelude to further discourse. "Ah, Gollys! it be massa Edward. Uncle Sam know'd you, massa Edward. You good to brack folk. Wat can do uncle Sam for massa?"
"How are you, Jorrocks?" and "How are you, Brack?" flew across like billiard-balls, while Sir Wincent, handing me the ribbons, said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I wish you all a good morning and a pleasant ride," and Brack having done the same by his coach and passengers, the two heroes met on terry firmey, as we say in France, to exchange way-bills and directions about parcels.
Jamieson?" "No, I don't! And just because he's the man he is. If it were anyone else, I'd say yes, because I don't see what they can expect to do. But you can depend upon it that Brack has some dirty trick up his sleeve, and from all you tell me of this man Weeks, he's the same sort of an ugly customer.
