Says I just now, up among the larches, 'Heigh, my sonny-boys, I can crow over you, anyways; for I was a man grown when Squire planted ye; and here I be, a lusty gaffer, markin' ye down for destruction. But hullo! where's the dinner?" "There bain't none." "Hey?" "There bain't none." "How's that? Damme! William Henry, dinner's dinner, an' don't you joke about it.
That would make me about twenty minutes ahead now. I'd say the absolutely correct time was somewhere between eleven-fifty-eight and twelve-six. And dinner's at half-past." "Thank you," laughed Clint. He pulled forth his own watch and looked at it. "I make it two minutes after," he said, "and I was right this morning by the clock in the station in New York." "Two minutes past, eh?"
Through a French window, under sun-blinds not yet drawn up, he preceded her into the room where he was wont to study The Times and the sheets of an agricultural magazine, with huge illustrations of mangold wurzels, and the like, which provided Holly with material for her paint brush. "Dinner's in half an hour. You'd like to wash your hands! I'll take you to June's room."
We'll find a way out of un. You'll see!" Mrs. Twig placed the big earthen bowl with the appetizing odour in the center of the table, together with a plate heaped high with slices of white bread and a bowl of molasses. Then she poured tea. "Dinner's ready this minute," boomed Skipper Zeb. "Set in, and we'll eat."
But I want to tell you that Lou can talk with the rest of 'em when she wants to and so can I, for that matter." "Oh, you can talk, Margaret thar ain't no doubt about that. Well, I'll go out now and see if the hogs air gittin' along all right, and when dinner's ready jest blow yo' ho'n." Off from the road, not far from the house, a gulch ran zig-zag up among the rugged hills.
The taxi-man cut short any further question by saying: "If you'll get into the cab again, sir, I'll drive you where you want to go, and then wait while you have your dinner and take you to the station. By the way, your dinner's ordered too!" "But who the devil are you?" asked Desmond in amazement. "On special service, the same as you, sir!" said the man with a grin and Desmond understood.
"Good-morning, little sixpence; what are you after now?" she added aloud, as the child appeared in the open doorway. "Mother's out o' vinegar, and dinner's just ready, and the gentleman'll want some for his salad, and there aint no time to send to the grocery. And mother says, will you lend her a teacupful, Aunt Wealthy?
"I shall endeavour to," said the young man. "And now may I go to my room, please? I should like to renovate my travel-stained person to some extent before dinner." "You'll have time," said Will; "dinner's at noon to-morrow. I guess you're thinkin' about supper. That's ready now. Here, Tracey, you carry this gentleman's things up to number forty-three."
"Well, if he hasn't made you an offer of marriage," cried Athelny, "by Saint George and Merry England, I will seize him by the nose and demand of him immediately what are his intentions." "Sit down, father, dinner's ready. Now then, you children, get along with you and wash your hands all of you, and don't shirk it, because I mean to look at them before you have a scrap of dinner, so there."
"He was only a boy when he enlisted, and it was long before there was any Daddy, dear. And Grandpa was wounded I'm sure I've told you that before don't you remember? That's how he met Grandma. She was a little girl and met him in the hospital where her father, who was a physician, was attending Grandpa." "Olive! Sunny! Dinner's ready!"
