She got red in the face and was shore mad at something. "Can-nye, eh!" says she. "Can-nye! So that's what she thinks we are." "Well, that was before we was alderman," says I. "Maybe they think different now, whatever can-nye is. What is it, anyway?" "It means something common, vulgar and low down, Curly," says she.
"Since you ast me, I'll tell you. It's a fence we're going to build." "A fence?" says he. "We got a perfectly good fence now." "Oh, have we? Well, it ain't high enough to keep out our people from mixing with them can-nye." I wondered again what can-nye was. "I'll not have you talking with their maids." "Is that so?" says he.

"What did she say, Curly?" she asked me then, "Did she really talk about us?" "Yes, she did. She thought you was a hired girl. And she says we was can-nye, and he wasn't to mix with us. Can-nye what is can-nye, Bonnie?" says I.
