I am glad you rounded her up, for both consarned. Peachey, my hat's off to you an' all your tribe: you'd have run till you dropped. I see, gentlemen, that you're sizin' me up, which is natural an' gratifyin'. But things is square an' satisfactory between me and her, I do assure you."

"He's well enough except for mischief," put in Aunt Prue through the buttery door. "Prue never thinks anything ails anybody," said Mrs. Brush, sinking her voice to a whisper.
