"You know somethin' about history and the Constitootion, don't ye?" demanded Chester, truculently. "N'Jethro Bass don't hold your mortgage, does he? Bank in Brampton holds it hain't that so? You hain't afeard of Jethro like the rest on 'em, be you?" "I don't know what right you have to talk to me that way, Mr. Perkins," said Wetherell. "What right?
