However, we mustn't lose heart. `Nebber say die, as Butterface is fond of remarking." "Yis, Massa, nebber say die, but allers say `lib, to de top ob your bent. Dems my 'pinions w'en dey's wanted. Also `go a-hid. Dat's a grand sent'ment was borned 'mong de Yankees, an' I stoled it w'en I left ole Virginny."
"Fellows, I believe, then," explained Midshipman Henkel, "that we owe it to ourselves, to the Naval Academy and to the Navy, to work Dave Darrin out of here as soon as we can." "How?" challenged Farley flatly. "Why, can't we put up some scheme that will pile up the 'dems. against that industrious greaser?
The old train even bursts into local politics and social affairs now and then. It managed to jump the track in the campaign of '96, leaving four distinguished Democratic speakers, fizzing with oratory, in the cornfields, and ruining the only rally the Dems attempted to pull off.
While he was still with the Petersens, but on the point of taking his leave, the sound of crutches had been heard on the stairs; and Johnny, turning to listen, said, "Dems is Tony mit his crushes. Vat is upper now?" and opened the door to admit not only Tony, but also his sister.
By this time they were near enough to hear distinctly every word; and, true enough, Sam's voice was heard above all others. At the conclusion of each song they all joined in a hearty laugh, with an expression of "Dats de song for me;" "Dems dems." "Stop," said Carlton, as Georgiana was rising from the log upon which she was seated; "stop, and let's hear this one."
"Ha! ha!" laughed the weird old creature who ushered the astonished youths into this strange banqueting hall, "the rubberts rubbers you calls dem?" "Robbers, she means; that's the naughty men," explained Letta, who seemed to enjoy the old woman's blunders in the English tongue. "Yis, dats so roberts an' pyrits ha! ha! dems feed here dis mornin'. You feed dis afternoons. Me keeps house for dem.
It's harmless enough, though it happens to be against the rules in the little blue book. We are indiscreet enough to let Darrin in on the trick, and he pipes the whole lay off to some one. Result we are 'ragged' and fifty 'dems. apiece. When you accuse Darrin of his mean work he gives you the lie.
I got in the push and, as soon as we reached the cracker boxes we give a box a fling from the top of the pack and bursted it, when we all began eating like hogs. In a minute here came the Negro. "What you-ens doin' dar? Dems our rations youse eatin'." "A box fell and bursted, and we are gathering them up as fast as we can."
"Well, you see, de blackfellow want to sell de ducks to papa, but papa has no money, so he went into de house and bring out a pair of his old lowsers, and de blackfellow give him de ducks for de lowsers, and dems de ducks you see." "Yes, dear; I see," said Miss Sheppard, blushing terribly. We all blushed. "You naughty girl," said mamma; "hold your tongue, or I'll send you to the kitchen."
"You may still have a margin of ten or fifteen dems. left to hold you on." "We're under orders, Danny boy, to report back to the O.C." "Come along, then."
