"Judy!" he gasped, imploringly, "Judy, do you ? does Auntie Sue know ? does she know that I ?" "How could she help knowin'? She ain't no fool. An' I done heard that there Sheriff an' the deteckertive man tellin' her 'bout you an' the bank.
"And remember, we must be more careful than ever, now, not to let any one not a soul know that Mr. Mr. Burns is in the house, or that we ever saw him!" "That there deteckertive man said as how the feller's name was Brian Kent, didn't be?" muttered the sullen Judy. "I don't care what the detective man said!" retorted Auntie Sue.
When Auntie Sue apparently could not reply, Judy continued: "Just as if hit wasn't more 'n enough for you-all ter go an' wear yourself plumb out a-takin' keer of that there ornery, no-'count feller, what I never ought ter dragged out of the river nohow. An', now, you-all got ter go an' just naturally lie like you did ter the Sheriff an' that there deteckertive man.
