"So that's the kind of a character he's been givin' me!" "Hullo! A whippoorwrn. Takes a man back into childhood-No, don't 'whip poor Will'; he's got all he can bear now." He came at last to the little farm Dingman had owned, and he stopped in sorrowful surprise.
Dingman, "they're gettin' most down to the bottom of the stack. They'll be pilin' in here soon." "Phe-e-eew-ee! G'-wan, Doll! G'-wan, boys! Chk, chk, chk! Phe-e-eew-ee!" called the driver out in the dusk, cheerily swinging the whip over the horses' backs. Boomoo-oo-oom! roared the machine, with a muffled, monotonous, solemn tone. "G'-wan, boys! G'-wan, g'-wan!"

The sun, lighting him where he stood, made his fork handle gleam like dull gold. Cheery words, jests, and snatches of song everywhere. Dingman bustled about giving his orders and placing his men, and the voice of big Dave McTurg was heard calling to the men as they raised the long stacker into place: "Heave-ho, there! Up she rises!"
He took out his handkerchief, wiped the dust from his face as best he could, shook his coat, dusted his shoulders with a grain sack, and was starting away, when Mr. Dingman, a rather feeble elderly man, came up. "Come, Will, supper's all ready. Go in and eat." "I guess I'll go home to supper." "Oh, no, that won't do. The women'll be expecting yeh to stay."
The other man was equipped for work like himself. "Hello, Will!" "Hello, Ed!" "Going down to help Dingman thrash?" "Yes," replied Will shortly. It was easy to see he didn't welcome company. "So'm I. Who's goin' to do your thrashin-Dave McTurg?" "Yes, I guess so. Haven't spoken to anybody yet." They walked on side by side. Will didn't feel like being rudely broken in on in this way.
