Find you've made a dredful mistake? can't bear your husband? keep thinking always of Edward? A child might write such utter rubish but not you, what does it matter whether one's husband is liked or disliked, provided he gives one position and wealth?

"Well," said Miss Riggs briskly, "I'm dredful glad you've cum, Evadne. It'll do Mis' Everidge a sight of good to have you, though Marthe Everidge is raised above the need of humans as far as any mortal can be on this earth. With all their inventions there ain't nobody discovered how to make spiritual photographs yet, or I would have the picture of her character in all the windows of the land.
I must tell you to what a dredful point you are gilty, and the horror of the position to which you have brought me. Henry, you knew what I sufered from my first wrong-doing, and yet you plunged me into the same misery, and then abbandoned me to my dispair and sufering.

She says she ways two hundred and atey pounds. I should think it would be dredful to way that. I only way 76. My head comes up to the mark on the door where you ware mesured when you ware twelve.

"So we kep' to work, and in a minute, cheery ag'in with the hammers click, clickin' and every now and then the boys 'ud strike up a singin' something'. 'Beyond the River, and 'Homeward Bound. "It sounded dredful purty down thar' by the water, with the water and the wideness all around sorter softenin' of it. It made a man feel curious and wishful somehow.
I wanted a gray rig, like that Miss Ross had on, but I couldn't get none to fit, an' the young lady told me 't black was dredful fash'nable now, so I got this rig; an' 'twas lucky I did ter-day. What could she mean by this diversion? I was growing uneasy when she uttered the last words. 'Yes? I said feebly. 'I s'pose you wonder what I'm drivin' at? she queried.
"Well, I'm dredful pleased to have met you. I'll be more than glad to have you come in whenever you're down our way." Evadne watched her as she walked briskly along the road. "She is not Aunt Marthe," she said slowly; "I suppose Louis would call it a case of the solanum and the potato blossom, but she is one of the Lord's plants all the same."
"Why didn't you halloo?" "Hollar? Didn't I hollar like all possessed?" "We didn't hear you." "Wal, dat ar's dredful sterious. An me a hollarin an a yellin like mad. Tell you what, I felt as ef I'd bust my ole head open, I did yell that hard." "Couldn't you manage to climb up that cliff?" "Dat cliff? Climb up? Me? What! me climb up a cliff? an dat cliff?
"Harry took it, an' the fuss he made you'd ha' thought he was swallering a football. It stuck all round his mouth, and he carried on so dredful that the other invalids was half sick afore it came to them.
I'm a old man now, & my hart is softer nor it once was. You see my spectacles is misten'd with suthin' very like tears.
