What'd they say down ter the house, Nuck, 'bout the signal?" "When they want help, or want us to sail into 'em, they're goin' to raise a red flag through the chimbley," replied the boy.
That old farmiliar face in the corner does his dooty better, an' makes less fuss about it. Then this here is a noo set o' chimbley ornaments. I don't think much o' them myself, but Tot says they're better than nothing. Them six cheers is the best I ever sat on. Nothin' can smash 'em. Mad Haco even can't " "Ah! is Haco alive still?" interrupted Gaff. "Alive, I should think so.
"I'm going to take in the Andrew Halloran." He was already on his way down the ladder. Uncle William pursued him, peering over. "You'll have to have me to help ye, Andy. Can't you jest wait till to-morrow till I get my chimbley done?" "You've been a month now," said Andy. He was glowering at the bay and the little boat bobbing below. "I know it, Andy, I know it."
"Now, Laurelly now Laurelly," Pap quavered in tones none other had ever heard from him, "don't you talk about dyin'. You look as young as Johnnie this minute. I'll git you what you want. Lord, I'll have Dawson build the chimbley big enough for you to keep house in, if them's yo' ruthers."

Is it likely one would walk up to this chimbley top to see a poor boy like that? No, no; doctors has to be paid, and I can't do that." "What do you give him to eat? what does he like?" "What does he like!" the woman repeated. "He don't like nothin' he has, and he don't eat nothin'. 'Tain't 'what we like, young sir, that lives in these places.
"Wal, they waited a minit, and didn't hear nothin' but the wind a-screechin' round the chimbley; and old Cack was jest goin' on with his story, when the rap come ag'in, harder'n ever, as if it'd shook the door open.
Q, and particularly the Hoosier's Rest, is the only place you'll find a contrite heart and a Christian spirit cultivated." "That reminds me," said Si; "we hain't licked the Wagonmaster yit for throwin' cartridges down our chimbley." "Blamed if that ain't so," said Shorty. "I knowed I'd forgotten some little thing. It's bin hauntin' my mind for days.
"'What's this chair doing so far in the chimbley corner? said she. "How glad I was there warn't two there. The fact is, we never used but one, we was quite young, and it was always big enough for us both.
