"When I seed you, sah," Uncle Matt explained, "it all come back to me in a minnit, how you an' de Judge pass shots 'bout dat flag; how you axed him to a dinner-party, an' dar was a Confed'ate officer dar an' a Confed'ate flag hung up over de table, an' de Judge when he seed it he 'fused p'int blank to set down to de table, an' it ended in you goin' out in de gyardin' an' changin' shots."

Up to Boston 'twas Tim and his 'loan. To-night it's about as healthy a sou'wester as I've ever been out in. Dan fetched in the team, has he?" "Yes. It's in the stable. He says the buggy dash is pretty well scratched up, and that it's a wonder you and that Graves man wa'n't killed. Who is he, anyhow?" "Land knows, I don't." "You don't know! Then what's he doin' here?" "Changin' his duds, I guess.
