"Where's Roxy?" returned Heman, as if he demanded her at the point of the bayonet. "Why, she's been abed as much as ten minutes. The Tuckers brought her home." "You tell her to come here! I want to see her." "What! down there? Law, Heman! you come in the mornin'. She'll ketch her death o' cold gittin' up an' dressin', now she's got all warmed through."
"It's Miss Presly," said Emarine, resentfully, under her breath. "Old gossip!" " goin' to have a fine dinner, I hear," Miss Presly was saying. "Turkey with oyster dressin', an' cranberries, an' mince an' pun'kin pie, an' reel plum puddin' with brandy poured over 't an' set afire, an' wine dip, an' nuts an' raisins, an' wine itself to wind up on.

"Seems as though I hadn't any ambition left," she often complained to her daughter. "There's nothin' here to do with, and nobody to do for. The most of the folks we ever see wouldn't know sour-dough bread from salt-risin', and as for dressin' up, I might keep the same clothes on from Fourth July till Christmas your father'd never know."

Also, I catches a remark of old Hickey; "Which that Boggs boy allers was a ediot!" says old Hickey." Bowlegs and Major Ben.

Well, I'd ask ony pusson aloive if they'd put up wi this soart o' thing dressin up like a bad hizzy that waaks t' streets, wi three candles three, I tell yo, Reuben flarin away, and the curtains close to, an nothink but the Lord's mussy keepin 'em from catchin.
