In a few seconds this was removed, and Ned was carried out and laid on the pavement, with a coat under his head. "There's no cut anywhere that I can see," said Joe Dashwood examining him. "His fall must have been broke by goin' through the lath and plaster o' the ceilin' below," suggested Bob Clazie.
Not as this 'ere tester is too 'igh fer that ceilin', but how as that there ceilin' is too low fer this tester." "Quite so," said Jevons. "And in that case you've got to raise the ceiling four inches." "You 'ave not.
My eye was jist a-blazin'! I jist straightened myself up so jist as I is now, plum to de ceilin', mos' an' I digs my fists into my hips, an' I says, 'Look-a-heah! I says, 'I want you niggers to understan' dat I wa'n't bawn in de mash to be fool' by trash!
"She telephone long time, then a gentlemans coom, and she go out." "Not a gent with pale hair and plenty of freckles on his face?" I asks. Helma gazes thoughtless at the ceilin' a minute. "Yah," says she. "Den have funny face, all all rusty." "The sleuthy old kidnapper!" says I. "Could she have pulled anything like that? Here, lemme step in and leave a note for Miss Vee.
For if it had been hard and tuckerin' to what it seemed the utmost limit of tucker, to stand up on a lofty barell, and lift up one arm, and scrape the ceilin', what would it be, so we wildly questioned our souls, and each other, to stand up on the same fearful hites, and lift both arms over our heads, and get on them fearful lengths of paper smooth.
My duty draws me: point out the dido, and I will look at it through that one eye." And he says, "I was a talkin' about the walls of this room." And I says, "Why couldn't you say so in the first place? The idee of skairin' folks! or tryin' to," I added; for I hain't easily skairt. The walls wus perfectly beautiful, and so wus the ceilin' and floors.
He laid it before me with a hauty linement and stood off a few steps to admire it. It wuz drawed up handsome, with little ornaments in blue and yeller ink runnin' all round the porticos and piazzas, which wuz in red ink. But on a closer perusal I sez to him: "What room is this where the walls and ceilin' are all ornamented off so?" "The settin' room," sez he. Sez I, "Where are the winders?"
Then it's me tilted back with my heels up and the suds artist decoratin' my map until it looks like a Polish weddin' cake. Don't it hit you foolish the first time, though? I felt like everybody in the shop, includin' the brush boy and the battery of lady manicures, was all gathered around pipin' me off as a raw beginner. So I stares haughty at the ceilin' and tries to put on a bored look.
Wall, Josiah and me, we went to that funeral. I felt that I must go, and so did he; it wuz only about five milds from here, in the Methodist Episcopal Meetin'-House up to Zoar. The Meetin'-House in Zoar wuz crowded to its utmost capacity and the ceilin'. And seats wuz sot in all the aisles, and the pulpit stairs wuz full of folks, and the door-steps, and the front yard wuz packed full.
Back and forth he goes, sometimes touchin' the floor and then again being tossed toward the ceilin'. Two or three of 'em would get him and start rushin' him across the room when another bunch would tear him loose and begin some maneuvers of their own. Anyway, runnin' the guard seems to be about as strenuous an act as anybody could go through and come out whole.
