Dey don' count in de contrac'. Folks is one thing an' ghos'es " "Ghosts! Bosh! There's no such thing as a ghost! If you had swung your club at the silly thing you'd have knocked over some dub of a man that we could pretty well describe right now, and saved us a heap of trouble and expense and you'd have kept your job!" Bill was disgusted and angry. "Lawsee!
"No." replied the Living Skeleton. "I'm allowanced off an' I've got t' eat on'y what he gives me that's in our contrac'. If I eat more an put on flesh out I go. There's a clause in ther contrac' what sez I'm li'ble t' be fired if goes above seven stone seven. The previous livin' skelington got the run at Barnip fer breakin' out. He was the only original.

Will that be enough?"
"I will certainly come down and see the poor little thing," promised Janice. "And your mamma and Johnnie and Eddie. Is your father at home now?" "Nop. He's up in Concannon's woods yet. They've took a new contrac' him and Mr. Trimmins. An' mebbe it'll last all Summer. Dear me! I hope so. Then pop won't be home to drink up all the money mom earns."
