Pole's thin lips twitched with mirth, and Conny, who was never content with mere inference, asked bluntly: "Then what do you do with yourselves evenings?" Her tone reflected the emptiness of the landscape, and she added with a treble laugh, "I've always wondered what suburban life is like!" "Oh, you eat and read and sleep. Then there are the children daytimes. I help teach 'em.
"Ah reckon yo' can't be any more glad to see me, than Ah am to see yo'. Fact is, Ah was getting right smart lonesome. Ah done been lying low daytimes, because, yo' know, Ah'm a stranger up here, and Ah was afraid that strangers might not be welcome in the Green Forest and on the Green Meadows." "'Pears like if all Ah hear am true, that yo' haven't done much lying low nights.
Besides, I wanted a little sleep, even if he didn't. I expect we was lucky that he picks out a berth behind the kitchen stove as the proper place for him to snooze. He might have fancied the middle of our bed. If he had, we'd camped on the floor, I suppose.

'The hearin' of her is narthin', it's th' seein' o' her that's the trouble. The poor fat chap a' been nigh skeered out o' his wits ever since, and nobody in th' village wud go near th' pit a' nighttimes no, not for a fortin.

I'll fare very well with the mate. I can use the cabin daytimes, when necessary. You must have done the handsome thing by Crosby, and I'll return the compliment as far as possible.
