The doctor looked compassionately away from the girl, and said, "Well, we must arrange about getting you off, then." "But I want you should go with me, doctor, and see me settled all right. You can, can't you? I sha'n't ca'e how much it costs?" The doctor said gravely he thought he could manage it and he ignored the long unconscious sigh of relief that Clementina drew.
"What woman alta what?" "Your polonaise. The one whe'e we stopped yestaday." "Oh! Well, I've been thinkin' about that child, Albe't; I did before I went to sleep; and I don't believe I want to risk anything with her. It would be a ca'e," said Mrs. Lander with a sigh, "and I guess I don't want to take any moa ca'e than what I've got now. What makes you think she could alta my polonaise?"
Husband and me, we'll ride into Brookhaven and bring 'em out to ow place and jest take ca'e of 'em untel yo' clerk is found." "Miz Wall!" cried the husband "She's busy talkin'. Miz Wall! she don't hyuh me. I hate to interrupt heh. Oh, Miz Wall! hyuh's Majo' Harper's clerk, right now!" "Law, you hain't!" cried Mrs. Wall, smiling back as she jounced.
Milray was tellin' that he's what they call a pooa lo'd, and that he was carryin' on with the American girls like everything down there in Egypt last winta. I guess if it comes to money you'd have enough to buy him and sell him again." The mention of money cast a chill upon their talk; and Mrs. Lander said gloomily, "I don't know as I ca'e so much for that will Mr. Milray made for me, after all.
I did ca'e for you then, but I was very young, and I don't know yet I thought I had always felt just; as you did, but now Don't you think we had both betta wait a little while till we ah' moa suttain?" They stood looking at each other, and he said, with a kind of passionate self-denial, "Yes, think it over for me, too. I will come back, if you will let me."
Both John and Mary laughed and demurred. "You don't think?" asked the smiling visitor. "Me, I dunno, I fine one thing. If a man don't die fum one thing, yet, still, he'll die fum something. I 'ave study that out, Mistoo Itchlin. 'To be, aw to not be, thaz the queztion, in fact. I don't ca'e if you live one place aw if you live anotheh place, 'tis all the same, you've got to pay to live!"
"Yes?" "We're both of us gettin' pretty well on, and you'd ought to have somebody to look after you if I'm not around. You want somebody that can do for you; and keep you company, and read to you, and talk to you well, moa like a daughta than a suvvant somebody that you'd get attached to, maybe " "And don't you see," Mrs. Lander broke out severely upon him, "what a ca'e that would be?
It would be kind of natural. He was the fust. You may think it is strange " Miss Milray, in the superstition of her old-maidenhood concerning love, really thought it cold-blooded and shocking; but she said, "Oh, no." Clementina resumed: "And he says that if it was right for me to stop caring for him when I did, it is right now for me to ca'e for him again, where the'e's no one to be hu't by it.
"What woman alta what?" "Your polonaise. The one whe'e we stopped yestaday." "Oh! Well, I've been thinkin' about that child, Albe't; I did before I went to sleep; and I don't believe I want to risk anything with her. It would be a ca'e," said Mrs. Lander with a sigh, "and I guess I don't want to take any moa ca'e than what I've got now. What makes you think she could alta my polonaise?"
Clementina did not look altogether convinced, whether it was Miss Milray's logic or her morality that failed to convince her. She said, after a moment, "I should like to see Mr. Gregory again." "What good would that do?" "Why, then I should know." "Know what?" "Whether I didn't really ca'e for him any more or so much." "Clementina," said Miss Milray, "you mustn't make me lose patience with you "
