I always told your grandpa he'd ha' saved himself a great deal o' trouble if he'd ha' let Earl Douglass take hold of things. You han't got Mr. Didenhover into the works again, I guess, have you? He was there a good spell after your grandpa died. "I haven't seen Mrs. Douglass," said Fleda. "But, Cynthy, what do you think I have come here for?"
Didenhover unless I've got to," said Cynthy with an expression of considerable disgust. "You needn't give no charges to me." "But you'll go with me, Cynthy?" "I s'pose I'll have to," said Miss Gall dryly, after a short interval of sipping tea and helping herself to sweetmeats. This lady had a pervading acidity of face and temper, but it was no more.
A word in your ear I wouldn't let Didenhover see much of his salary till you know how he will come out at the end." "He has got it already!" said Mr.
I've got some first-rate pickles. I calculated to make some sort o' cake in the morning." "Any of those small hams left?" "Not a bone of 'em these six weeks, I don't see how they've gone, for my part. I'd lay any wager there were two in the smoke-house when I took the last one out. If Mr. Didenhover was a little more like a weasel I should think he'd been in."
I have been altogether disappointed in that Didenhover." "I expect you have." "What do you suppose he'll do, Mr. Jolly? McGowan, I mean." "I expect he'll do what the law 'll let him, Mr. Ringgan; I don't know what 'll hinder him."
That Didenhover is ruining me, brother Joshua." "He's feathering his own nest, I reckon." "You may swear to that. There wa'n't as many bushels of grain, by one fourth, when they were threshed out last year, as I had calculated there would be in the field. I don't know what on earth he could have done with it. I suppose it'll be the same thing over this year."
Rossitur, gently. "What is the difficulty?" "Why, your father has let it to a man by the name of Didenhover, and I am afraid he is not faithful; it does not seem to bring us in what it ought." "What did he do that for?" "He was wearied with the annoyances he had to endure before, and thought it would be better and more profitable to have somebody else take the whole charge and management.
"I don't know, grandpa," said Fleda, "I can't see yes, I do see yes, they are, grandpa; I see the mark." "I thought so!" said Mr. Ringgan bitterly; "I told Didenhover, only three days ago, that if he didn't make up that fence the sheep would be out, or Squire Thornton's would be in; only three days ago! Ah well!" said he, shaking the reins to make the mare move on again, "it's all of a piece.
Didenhover's work he had it out day 'fore yesterday; and if you want it cleaned, Mr. Ringgan, you must speak to him about it. Mr. Didenhover may file his own doings; it's more than I'm a going to." The old gentleman made no answer, except to acquaint the mare with the fact of his being in readiness to set out.
