Here the men set down the boxes. And when they had brought them all in, and Sam, under the direction of Gray, had forced off all the tops, laying the contents bare to view, the latter said: "Now then, Ishmael, we will leave you to go to work and unpack; but don't you get so interested in the work as to disremember dinner time at one o'clock precisely; and be sure you are punctual, because we've got veal and spinnidge."
The sheriff scratched his chin. "I disremember him. Canning? Canning? Come to think of it, I do remember him. Kind of a small man with washed- out eyes. Always with a notebook on his knee. I got sick of answering all that gent's questions, I recollect. Yep, he was along when I took the Garrison boys, but that little party didn't amount to much." "He thought it did," said Terry fervently.

"I disremember what sum er resulted that time," confessed Mrs Bowldler; "my memory not bein' what it was." "Ninepence; an' two threepennies with the soap total two-and-nine, which was correct. If I die, I die," moaned Palmerston.
When he had finished the Colonel sprang to his feet with an oath. "And that explains something that puzzled us here in the bank, for many a day. Wait a minute." He left the room to return with a slip of paper. "Can you tell me the exact date on which you cashed the draft?" he said to McGowan. "It was the day after the funeral. I disremember the date, but 'twould be easy to find."

"I heerd said dey done brought de body ob de ol' Jedge home, sah he died mighty sudden sumwhar up de ribber. Thet's 'bout all I know." "When was this?" "'Bout a week maybe mor'n dat ago. De Warrior brought de body down, sah." "The Warrior? Did anyone go ashore with it?" "Pears like thar wus two men stopped off at de Landin'.

The boy, thus solicited, at once raised himself into a kneeling position, and commenced repeating the sublime prayer of the Christian.
