"You all know," he said, "that Dimock meant to cane Harpour because he played off a joke against one of the fellows last night. Harpour refused to take the caning, and the monitors are holding a meeting this morning to decide what to do about Harpour. Now I maintain that they've no right to do anything; and it's very important that we shouldn't let them have just their own way.
Bill, the man he addressed, knew too much to hesitate after the savage look that sent home the last words, and, drawing from a bag of tools and dies a tiny padlock and key, he handed them to Dimock, who passed the chain about Hitty's thin white wrist, and, fastening it with the padlock, turned the key, and, withdrawing it from the lock, dropped it into the silvery heat of the forge, and burst into a fit of laughter, so savage and so inhuman that the bearded lips of his two comrades grew white with horror to hear the devil within so exult in his possession of a man.
"I shall always remember one thing," Nellie Dimock said, "when I think about our quilt." "What is that, Nellie?" "Not to step on an ant-hill if I can possibly help it, because it blocks up the street, and the little people have to work so hard to cart away the dirt."

Dimock, of Peekamose, N.Y., the famous outdoor photographer, and illustrator of "Florida Enchantments": "I know a goodly number of the plume-hunters of Florida. I have camped with them, and talked to them.
There was some of it again tried by Master Palmer, Comptroller of the Mint, and Master Dimock in Goldsmith's Hall, and it held after six and twenty thousand and nine hundred pounds a ton. There was also at the same time, and by the same persons, a trial made of the dust of the said mine; which held eight pounds and six ounces weight of gold in the hundred.
